Owning a home comes with a lot of things nobody really prepares you for, including yard care.
Sunday is a company trying to make that part easier.
They start with a soil test and climate data to build a yard plan tailor to where you live,
then ship everything directly to your door.
no guesswork, no dragging bags of fertilizer.
And instead of harsh chemicals, Sunday uses simple, nutrient dense ingredients like seaweed, molasses, and iron.
Everything hooks up to a hose, which honestly sounds like my speed.
If your yard feels more stressful than satisfying, Sunday's approach makes a lot of sense.

The Bobby Bones post-show pre-show.
Did I just hear you tell Steve that your psychic cousins coming back on?
Mm-hmm.
That's good. What day?
She'll be on Thursday.
Huh.
Let's see what I got to ask her.
Well, that's you.
I know, I know.
She just nailed some stuff last time, so now I'm nervous.
I still don't think she's...
I don't believe in psychics.
Me neither.
Which sounds bad because I want to be supportive of my cousin.
Caitlin and I were talking about this
Caitlin said she wasn't your first cousin
No we're not actually related
Oh I was like no it's Amy's first cousin
She's like no
I've told you this before
I don't listen sometimes
But she said
She said no it's just Amy's close family friend
And I was like nope first cousin blood
I was wrong
And yeah but her mom
Is my Aunt Lisa
I don't know them as anything else
That's but our moms were best friends
When we were little so I just
That's why I say Aunt Lisa and she's my cousin
All right Thursday or Friday we'll have her on
Okay, up to you.
Cool.
Tuesday song.
I got my Tuesday sweater on today, by the way.
All right, hit it, Ramundo.
Eddie's not here to do the deal.
You hear that later, but I'll see, like, I'll just do a little bit of it.
The best day of the week, you all know it's my time.
So I made a song about Tuesday, so happens, it rhymes.
The lowest number of crimes is a super bingo at nine.
I don't know how you do your Tuesday.
This is how I do mine.
The sun comes up.
There's a smile in my mouth.
Why?
Because I love Tuesday is the first thing I shout.

Let's do another verse.
It's Tuesday.
Is my recycling on the curb as I drive off?
Yep, my recycling's on the curb.
I mean Fridays are fine because they're casual and all, but I'm always more productive
on my Tuesday conference called my after work plans.
I got my spray tan.
I'm drinking lemon water out of me some cayenne.
Pebbles and bam bam.
I'm watching C-SPAN.
And then it's two-for-one.
It's Sonic with a cony and each hand.

Thank you very much
This is the post show
The Tuesday edition
Nice to be back in the studio
Because we can do that
Let's look at the draft
From yesterday
Boy, I was so dead last
In this one
Really?
I don't even remember
What you chose
Popping Zits
And I don't even like to pop
Zits
That's what I get for chasing votes
I have at 3%
Real Housewives
Popping Zitz for yourself
and others and then junk food.
You finished next to last, Amy.
What?
People are crazy.
But you're still in it and lunchbox wins.
With reality TV, scrolling social media and shopping at Target.
Oh.
So, I will be sitting out the next weeks.
Dang, I was really embarrassed on that one.
It's fine.
Losing, you'll get used to it.
I'm kind of getting...
I'm kind of getting a little bored with the drafts, to be honest with you at this point.
Yeah.
Like I've been doing it a while.
Do we move on?
But in the lead right now, me, Morgan, and lunchbox all have seven.
Amy has two and Eddie has one.
Ramundo still has zero.
Still looking to get that first win there, Ramundo.
Keep trying.
Fight grind, repeat.
Per of that.
All right.
Hey, what had your dad, by the way?
Just a check in.
He's doing good.
I haven't seen him since I got back, but I think that we're going to be able to start doing outside visits.
Like touching him?
No.
socially distant.
blow-up dinosaur, honestly?
Listen, I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't think so.
Nobody's told me that that's the case.
I do see it online.
I'm like, oh, that's cute.
But now, I just want to do whatever to keep him and all the other residents safe.
So they're starting to implement a program where they're going to let us be outdoors with him.
But I don't know all the rules yet, but there's going to be rules.
It's very like a specific time that we have to book it.
So we'll see.
I'm hoping to get on the schedule for that soon because, I mean, he's going to be so excited.
To be able to go outside?
Yes.
So I'll give you posted on that.
Thanks for asking about him.
He's doing good, though.
Lunchbox, everybody leave your house, all your family?
Yeah, they're all gone, man.
They're out.
They left into last week, and so it's just the wife and me and two kids.
Does it feel like it's calm now?
Oh, it feels so quiet.
We're just like, wow, it's so weird because there was nothing but screaming and yelling and, oh.
Do you like it?
Like it.
Everybody's gone?
Well, it's so.
Well, yeah, I mean, it's nice to get back and have some quiet and be able to take naps and be able to relax a little bit.
When there's that many people there, you can't nap and you can't relax.
The only good thing was is whenever the kids would cry, I could sleep in because I'd be like, oh, grandma and grandpa here.
They'll just take care of that.
Did they?
Absolutely.
Was that new to you guys to have them around?
Yeah, because we haven't had any help, so it's just like, it's weird having help.
And so it's like, oh, man, I don't have to get out of bed.
You guys handle that.
And were they sad to go?
Yeah.
They drive?
They drove, yeah.
They drove in a, they rented a minivan and packed everybody in the car.
Boy, driving, man.
Ugh.
I hate road tripping.
You?
I don't mind it.
It's fine.
I do the same thing on road trips that I do at movies.
I get a bunch of snacks and eat them right away.
And then the 94% of the trip I'm like, wish I had some snacks.
And then I stop at a gas station and buy stupid gas station.
And gas stations is good snacks, but they're not good for you.
Like, I buy good snacks.
I mean, not taste a good, but good for you is.
But you just eat them too soon.
But then I eat them all in like three minutes.
Yeah.
And then I'm so stupid, but I do.
I've done this my whole life.
Eventually you'd have to learn to not do it.
Frustrating.
I'm frustrating.
I frustrate me.
All right, we're going to go on with today's show.
We want to put the Brett interview at the beginning of this?
Can we do that?
Can we just start it with the Red interview on the podcast?
Had Brett Eldridge in.
Oh, yeah, that's cool.
He'll start the podcast.
You can hear the rest of the show after that.
Some Eddie stuff that happens later.
That's pretty crazy.
All right.
Thank you guys.

Financial stress is one of the things that we don't always talk about,
but it hits harder than we realize.
It's not just numbers in a bank account.
It's the anxiety that keeps you up at night.
It's the tension that it can create in relationships
and that constant feeling of, am I doing enough?
There are moments where it's overwhelming,
where no matter how hard you work,
you feel like you just can't quite get ahead.
And what you learn is that stress isn't just financial.
It's emotional.
That's why it's important to check in with yourself.
Because struggling and struggling with money doesn't mean you fail.
It means you might need support in a different way.
Therapy can help you unpack the stress,
the pressure, even the beliefs that you've carried about money for years.
And with better help, you can get matched with a licensed therapist who fits your needs.
Plus, if it's not the right fit,
you can switch at any time.
You don't have to carry the weight alone.
When life feels overwhelming, therapy can help.

Brett Eldridge.
You know, I've been listening to your record pretty much nonstop.
It's my vibe, though.
Of all your records, this is my vibe.
Because I like the emotional.
I like the instruments.
Me too.
I like to slow it down stuff.
I had to grow up a little bit to get to that emotion.
I had to like dig down.
I was like, okay, I've been singing the young guy songs.
I grew up, get the emotions out.
We'll pour them out.
So the other songs are young guys songs?
No, they're not a young guy.
I'm still a young guy, right?
Yeah.
Still a young guy.
I just feel like I'm growing up a little bit, you know?
So I'm tapping into those emotions a little deeper now.
You don't have headphones on, but I'm going to play a clip.
I was on the show yesterday.
talking about my favorite songs from your record.
Yeah.
And I think I even texted you this.
This is my jam here.
This is my jam here.
I'm going to play some of it here.
I don't need your smile.
I don't feel your heart at every mind.
The piano.
The vocal.
It was a real stripped down when we recorded.
It was just me and two other guys and another guy came in from time to time.
Ian Fitchick and Daniel Tash.
and they were just, it was just drums sometimes at piano, and that was it, which I loved,
because I just, I was like, oh my God, that's what I sound like raw.
It just felt so organic.
That was a great experience.
That's my jam.
By the way, Brett's record is out.
This is the first week of it.
So you're going to stream it, you're going to download it, you're going to buy it.
Like, do it this week looking for a big number.
Yeah.
Then the label's happy.
Everybody's happy.
Everything's feeling good.
And it's a good time, too, because I think people are looking to feel things right now.
Oh, you want to feel good song, though?
This is my other good album.
This is the one too. This is a good day. This is the track right after that.
It's going to be a good.
I see?
It's awesome.
I don't ever listen to records. I mean, I listen to a lot of music, but I rarely listen to full albums.
And especially when they come out because there are so many.
But this is, like I listen to the whole thing like five times.
Well, thank you.
I'm a big fan of it.
Brett Eldridge is here, which is pretty cool.
You sat in my seat to host a countdown a couple weeks ago.
It's a nice spot.
It is, right?
I enjoyed it.
Yeah, it's clean.
That's like, that's the spot.
Oh, it is?
I love this is the spot.
I mean, everybody's got good spots, but I mean, it comes around like that.
I mean, it's like Dr. Evel's.
You get the chair, you know.
Yeah, welcome.
Hey, before I come in, it gets sanitized, and when I walk out, it gets sanitized.
So it's also the cleanest spot in here.
So what's that, like, hosting, like, a countdown whenever you're, like, mostly like the artist guy, getting played on the countdown?
It's a deal.
You're really good at your job.
And me, I was, I, it's just way different for me.
I'm used to just, you know, saying a few words and singing.
it's a whole different thing, but it was so cool
because I remember growing up listening to countdowns
and listen on the weekend,
and it's just, it was cool to do it.
So I think you had a good vacation.
I did.
And I just sat there and worked my tail off for you,
and it's worked hard.
Yeah, and I was looking at the ratings for it.
Terrible.
Yeah, really.
No, we don't see ratings for a countdown that quick.
But I appreciate that.
Well, if it comes skyrocket, there's big.
Then you can start singing.
You just started doing my gigs, all my songs.
You've already know him now.
Well, the thing, too, people were tweeting during it.
I told Amy that's on the show yesterday.
I said, hey, I'm getting a lot of tweets about how great Brett did on the countdown
and, like, how it's their favorite countdown ever?
I guess I'm just chopped liver to these folks.
Yeah, yeah, what's going on?
It's always the new hot thing.
All right, Brett Eldridge is here, he's got a new record.
I want you to play the single.
I've got a lot to talk to you about.
Okay.
But this is the song that's on the radio now.
I'm always curious, though, how, what the conversation is,
because you're at the point now in your career where you can dictate where you're, where you're
going a bit more than you used to could.
Yeah.
So do you sit in a room and did you go, all right, here's the single, we're going to tell
the record label to put it out, or do you all sit together?
Like, what happens?
Yeah, you sit together and you, I mean, I guess actually on this one, my manager and I, John
Petz, we kind of, you said, we're going to go walk in the woods.
We're going to take a walk in the woods.
We're going to disappear for a while.
We're going to, I'm going to dive deep.
And this is when I went and I got the flip phone.
I got, you know, I did all that kind of disconnected everything.
And I was just sending him songs.
and playing him songs,
and come home, play him songs,
and we would just go through stuff
and record them just on a phone
or in a little garage studio,
and then we would talk through it,
and the label was really, really amazing
about kind of giving me the space to make,
you know, I wanted to go to a deeper level,
and so they gave me the space to,
they weren't like, oh, it needs to sound like this,
or, you know, they didn't get in the way,
which was really cool,
and you don't always get that, honestly.
All right, here it is.
This is Gabrielle.
Hey, guys, so because of license,
roles. We can't play anything with music on this Iheart radio channel or podcast anymore.
But you can go to Bobby Bones.com to see it. We hate that we had to take it down.
It wasn't our decision. But I just wanted to keep you up and we wanted to keep up as much as
possible. So go to Bobby Bones.com to watch or hear whatever you're missing right now.
And thank you for listening to the show. And sorry about all the legal stuff.
Let me ask you, will it ever be the right time with that? Can it still be the right time?
That's a really good question.
Because if she's married...
I don't think you ever know.
You know what I mean?
Like, I think for the most part, for me, it's...
The sentiment of the song is like...
I think a lot of us have had a relationship
where we look back and we think,
what could that have been?
You know, the relationship where you're like,
you know, I don't know if it's necessarily the one that got away,
but you just...
It wasn't the right time.
One person was all the way there,
and one had something going on their life.
Couldn't quite go all the way there.
Whatever it was, it didn't quite make the distance.
And you're just like,
I wonder what that person's doing.
I'm glad that I had that, but I wish them well.
I just, you know, that's where it left off.
You know, I listen to these songs, especially this new record.
I'm listening, listen to the words.
Mostly I don't give a crap.
First, I listen to melody, right?
I'm a melody person first, meaning I know a lot of songs.
I don't know all exact words.
I was like, let's do, bab do you, da, d'a, right?
I don't know a lot of words of songs.
If I listen to these, and I hear how you're saying all these sweet things
about relationships and girls and women and maturing.
what's the problem?
Like, as you, you're afraid, in these songs, it's just right on.
Like, you're nailing it. I'm feeling it.
It's so interesting because in these songs, it's a little, like, there's,
I think I used to sing more like, oh, this perfect relationship, love, I'm in love, you know,
falling in love to be the music, which I don't regret any of that.
But I think on this record, some of the love songs are more like,
there's a song called The One You Need, and it's like, let me be the one you need.
Like, I feel like, I'm giving myself a credit now,
starting to be like, okay, I could be that foundation for somebody.
I could be that person for somebody.
Are you there?
I'm getting it.
I think I'm finally about, I think like over the last couple of years, I finally, I'm really
close.
Yeah.
I like that.
Yeah.
I think you got to, you know, step into that place.
I just got to that place.
Yeah.
Like a year ago.
It's hard.
It's hard to get there.
I mean, I wish it was, I could just make it having like that.
I'm trying to open my heart.
That's the whole, that's the whole goal, you know.
On the Bobby Bones show now.
Eldridge. On your Twitter, you had some videos of you. You ran a half marathon, but you ran it.
It wasn't like there were people clapping on the sides, no markers. You just took off running.
Yeah.
So that was an interesting approach. But you did it for a reason, which mental health awareness, is that right?
Yep.
I guess, though, is it hard to just go run 13 miles with nobody cheering you on?
Yes, it's very hard. But it's a mental battle, you know? Like, for me, it was like,
okay I got a I got a I got a
when I get seven miles I got
you know what is it
it's 13.1 miles so I'm not
doing math right now I got another half to go
and I'm seven in or whatever
a little over six and I'm thinking
your body your mind's trying to give up
you know it's trying to make deals with you
your mind gives up way quicker than your body does but
and so you kind of have to become bigger than your mind a little bit
it's like I was running a race against myself which I wanted
because
you know as we've talked about before I
dealing with anxiety issues through the years, I would, you have a lot of mental games going through your head.
So mental health awareness, you know, at a time like this, you know, I was, I knew it was going to get tough and, and, and this, you know, lockdown and everything going on in the world.
And so I wanted to find some resilience.
So I just ran 13.1 miles.
I trained, of course.
I didn't like this do it overnight.
But I got to the point where I just got addicted to running and I loved it.
So, and we raised a bunch of money for mental health awareness.
So I would enjoy having people on the sidelines.
I think that would be pretty cool.
But I think I'm glad I had to do that way first, you know.
And eventually, I would like to do another one with people.
I feel like it would be easier, maybe.
Would you do the whole 26?
Would you?
Amy has.
You've done it?
Just once.
When I was in college.
What'd you think?
Back in the day.
It was good.
It's totally mental.
Once you get, I think when we trained, we never, I never ran more.
than 21 miles in training because our coach had told us if you can do 21 you can do 26.2
and it's 90% mental.
So, I mean, obviously you can't.
So you just got to make the 21 and then the let's train.
But I mean, that's what she would tell us because she's like if you can do that,
your body, as long as you're in good, everything's working, like you should be fine.
But it is so mental.
And I do think there's something about accomplishing whatever it is.
setting a goal and then accomplishing it.
There was a rush after trying not to throw up at the end.
I mean, it was really, I mean, it's so hot here.
I feel like if you can run a half or in Nashville,
you can run in a lot of places.
It's very hilly.
But, you know, after that, I felt a very rush
and a sense of accomplishment.
And just like, I hardly ever ran more than five miles in my life out of time.
And I just ran 13.1.
That's a pretty cool feeling.
Well, hey, seven more.
And then that's at 20.
And then according to my college coach, you're in.
You're in.
If you could do 20, you'd do 26.
Let's go.
What's up with the ring you're wearing?
Oh, yeah.
This is the aura ring.
This is not brought to you by.
This is just a, this is just a...
Because you're not a big jewelry guy on your hands, but you have a ring on.
What is that thing?
So it tracks your sleep.
It has these little sensors on it.
It doesn't have a screener thing on it.
But it tracks your sleep, tracks your body temperature at night,
tracks your heart rate, all that stuff.
Because, you know, I was wearing the, I was wearing Apple Watch at one point, but I was on stage,
and I didn't want to be wearing Apple Watch on stage all the time, so I wanted to get some kind of
ring.
And I couldn't find one that fit my ring finger, but then I was like, then I kind of looked
like I'm a married guy.
So I got one right on my finger, and it tracks my sleep, and I'm kind of a, I've struggled
with sleep to the years, you know, you and I've tied that before, but I, I feel like if I
focus on it, this tells me when to go to bed, when to get up, sets like your body, your
circadian rhythm, it kind of captures
your rhythm and your body. So it connects
to an app and then the app tells you
or does it like zap you?
Go to bed. Go to sleep.
Until you go to sleep, we're going to
keep shocking. Oh, it's just taking it up.
I mean, well, that's interesting. Wait, how can we look it up?
Oh, URA.
By the way, they're not a client. You're not
not, I was just generally curious. Oh, no, and I'm
genuinely curious too.
Check it out. I really like it. I mean, it makes
me a little obsessive, like I look at it a lot.
Sleep is so important.
Sleep and water are the two easiest things that we don't prioritize near the way we should.
Way more things.
Work, everything before sleep and sleep's what gives us life.
Brett Eldridge is here.
I want to just run through these number one songs.
I want you to give me one word because you don't have headphones on.
I'm going to say the name of the song, Ray's going to play it, and they want to point at you.
You tell me one word that comes to mind when we do the song.
First of all, don't you?
Here's that song.
What's the one word?
What's it make you feel?
That's all groove.
That's a groove.
Yeah?
It's a straight groove.
All right.
Here's a beat of the music.
What's this song?
Island.
Yeah?
Is this a video?
It's been to think of pigs.
That's what it is.
Okay, yeah.
That's why I see that in my head.
Is that the video too?
Yeah.
Dang.
All right, good.
That video must have worked because I don't.
How often do you see videos really?
I must have saw it on Instagram.
Or were I was the whole lot?
It was bad before the swimming pigs.
came popular though.
Back when people didn't go.
Did you popularize swimming pigs?
Is that what you're claiming?
I hope not.
I really kind of, I hope not.
I think someone else did it too.
Mean to me.
Then I'd be what you mean to me.
What do you think about that one?
Intimate.
Okay.
You ever, let me ask you this, I'll ask it in a nice way.
You ever smooch with a girl, listen to your own song?
No.
Come on.
How great is that?
Answer it.
Because these are all super love songs.
You can be honest.
I'd never have.
Yeah.
I never have.
I would tell you, too.
How awkward.
Have you?
To a Brett song or to one of a radio music songs?
To one of yours.
No, no, because all those are stand-up comedy songs.
Hey, I'm just saying it comes on the playlist.
It doesn't come on the playlist, though.
That would be so...
How did that one get on there?
Right, you could be listening to, like,
an I-Hart radio station or a Pandora station,
and you listen to, like, country love songs.
And then all of a sudden, you know,
I want to be that song.
And you just...
That could happen.
Yeah.
All I'm saying is when it happens, let us know.
I think I would lose the moment, though.
I think I'd be in it and I'd be like, I would start feeling weird.
Lose my mind.
Here's this one.
What's how much make you think about?
Straight jagged.
Me too.
That was the word I had.
Maybe the picture on the front of it too.
Yeah, the album cover was straight.
And I shot it in a straight jacket.
Drunk on Your Love.
Yeah, that one does.
Which one of these songs of your seven number ones did you go, man, that's for sure a hit.
And then which one did you go, I don't know.
I think for sure was be the music and drunk on your love.
One of those two, like I knew, you know, sometimes those rhythm, the feel of those kind of things just felt like it.
Like a song like Mean to Me, you think it's going to, you know, connect in a big way, but you don't know.
slower, you know?
I mean, there's just a lot of things that you've got to get through to get that song out there.
And it became like a huge wedding song and all that.
Dang, I bet you get offers.
You get offers to play at weddings for like super rich people.
Yeah, I got offers weddings for really fancy weddings.
And I got offers from fans saying, we got to open bar.
Come on down.
And those are the two you do.
And those are the ones that I always want to show up to.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
Man, I want it like a Sultan or a.
oligarch calls you and goes
listen
Mr. Eldridge is being
Mr. Oh yeah has anybody from Russia
my yacht? My daughter
she's turning 22 we give you
$2 million.
On a yacht.
They fly you in.
That would be awesome.
Like Mariah Carey or something, she does that.
Oh yeah. You have so many songs though
like perfect wedding love songs.
That would be a sound of a idea.
Let's just put it out there. Let's put it out to the universe.
Yeah, we have a lot of listeners over there.
You know the song
When I went to my girlfriend's hometown for the first time
Like my favorite song that you ever did
Was take me the long way around this town
Yeah
Which is my favorite song
And just because I was always like
Man I can't wait to have someone who I care enough about
To know all the
All the crap which ends up being the best parts
Like because most people I don't care of this crap
I don't want to see where you played softball in eighth grade
But I actually did for the first time.
It was the first time in my life
because I went to my girlfriend's from a town near Tulsa.
And I was like, hey, let me see everything in your town.
And then I think I told you this.
I played your song.
And I was like, we played it.
It was good.
That's my favorite Brett song.
Was that number one?
Yeah, it was number one.
It's not on here.
One, two, three.
I think it was.
Six, seven.
Well, if it wasn't.
It was close.
Yeah.
I don't know if it was it.
But it's my favorite.
It's a Bobby number one.
Maybe it was number two.
We don't know.
I can't remember.
You know, some of the best songs don't even make it to number one.
It's fine.
Amy's now giving you.
Thank you for this.
Thank you for.
I was obviously heartbroken.
But Amy's always there for that positive.
She's always there.
But that's like, that's my Brett Eldred Eldred's song.
Well, I love that one too.
Turned it up.
My favorite Brett Elder song never even made it to radio.
Put me on train.
Yeah.
Put me on a runway, one way, one way, sky high, aeroplane.
You know the one too, that people now come.
come out and go, you know what, Brett's song I like the most?
Because I think they go back into your history is Raymond.
Yeah.
Because I don't know that that song did what you wanted to do when it first came out.
It did in the very first song.
So it was...
Same album.
Yeah.
But with your success, people go back and then search everything.
Which is cool, especially now.
I mean, people can go find that.
That's a powerful song too, man.
Yeah, man. That's what I talk about vulnerable.
So hard to say.
Vulnerable, that song was, I mean, when I wrote that, it was about my grandmother.
She had Alzheimer's.
And it was inspired from her grandmother.
I had my Alzheimer's.
And I wrote it and got,
it's kind of an emotional way to cope with that.
But it was,
that's kind of like what I wanted to go back to
with this new record of getting super vulnerable in that way.
Because it just kind of releases something.
And I think it connects with people.
Got two more things to talk to you about.
First of all, your height is listed at 6 foot 4.
Is that true?
I think I'm a little more than that.
I do too.
I was going to say.
I'll play mine up.
You play yours down.
Oh, somebody played it down for me, I guess.
I don't know. Where's it on? Is it on Wiki?
It's on everything. It's on...
Really? Six-four. Come on... I think I'm about six-five.
Oh, wow.
Maybe a little less.
When did you grow? At what age?
Like, sophomore year.
So I played most sports my freshman year, and then I...
But I wasn't that big, so I didn't get like the athletic level that I could have been until later.
And I'd quit several sports at the end of freshman year because I was like, I want to play music.
Like, my dad and my brother or my grandfather were all amazing athletes, and I was just not that great.
Then I got huge, and I was playing, I guess I was never going to go pro, so.
Or now you go back and you try.
You Michael Jordan.
We make a movie.
Oh, yeah.
Everybody make a documentary?
Yeah, that would be.
Who's in?
Are you investing?
Everybody?
We're not investing.
The other thing I'm going to ask you is, by the way, Brett's got a record out.
It came out this week.
Check it out.
It's called Sunday Drive.
I'm going to talk about the song because.
This was an interesting story, and I brought it up whenever you posted it on Instagram.
Ray, play a little bit of Sunday Drive, please.
Just watching the world like Domino's.
This old car could find its own way home and see ordinary things that mean so much.
And this whole song is about, you know, something that you just kind of take for granted.
It's a Sunday drive, but now it's really important to you.
It's like that's the thing that matters the most was that Sunday Drive.
But it's the only song you didn't write.
Yep.
Now, you were working in a,
for a record label here in town?
And what was your job there?
I was working for a publishing company.
Which is different.
That's for songwriters.
Yeah, songwriters.
This is where you go write songs for a living, I guess.
And I was working in the basement as a, they called it the tape room.
It was like a dungeon-looking kind of room.
I would just transfer CDs, MP3s on the hard drive so they could have all the artists database.
And I heard this song, you know, college.
days and I loved that I was just completely taken away by the depth and emotion of it and how it felt
really like it related to my life and I kept it like I kept it in my email inbox and I held
on to it for wait should you have done that was that I guess I don't I think because people pitch
songs and like no I could have done that all right I could have done that I think somebody at the
there told me about it too and so which I'm sure they're glad they didn't know because it didn't
I got recorded through any of that.
But yeah, I would hope, like, artists would put it on hold,
and other artists would look at maybe recording it,
and then they never did,
and I would just never tell anybody about it.
I was hoping one day I got to record it.
And then I got to this record that was way more reflective.
It's a very reflective song.
And it was kind of serendipitous.
It kind of was the right moment to record it,
and it was very full circle.
That's a cool story.
Who did you see Almost recorded it?
Do you know?
Do you not want to say?
I don't know what I'm saying.
Okay, all right, all right.
That's all the wheels turning.
It's interesting, though, that even in your early days or college days,
that a song like that struck you.
Yeah.
And that you, yeah, it was strange.
Not that it shouldn't, but where you were and then it took you however long to get back to it.
The third line talks about your parents' older and you're helping them to the back seat.
and I was just completely destroyed.
But my parents are pretty young now, but still, we're all growing older.
You know, that's what time does, you know,
and to take each moment and make it count kind of thing is what I think the message of the song was,
and it really just grabbed a hold of me.
And so I sang that song in the studio.
I got to the third verse.
I completely lost it.
And I just started bawling.
I stepped back from the microphone.
And the piano player, Ian Fitchick, he kept playing,
and he finished the song.
He was really emotional,
and I went in and hit that last first,
and that was the take,
and one take like that.
Nice.
So that was,
that was a deep one.
Is that the only song
you ever cried on?
I think so.
I think that's,
yeah, for sure.
I still have trouble.
I did a little live stream
for my album on Saturday,
and I was tearing up,
thinking my parents were,
because I knew my parents
were watching me
on the other side of the screen,
and you could feel that emotion
and just,
and it was just,
it's heavy,
but in a good way, you know?
Yeah, that's a good story.
I knew we'd get one.
out of you? Yes.
At least one.
We've probably got one.
Let's do,
let's play one of the hit.
By the way,
check out Sunday Drive.
I love it.
For me,
it's my jam.
Play a little bit of Paris,
Illinois,
because this is the end of it
and there's like,
you know,
it sounds a little different.
Paris, Illinois sounds a little different.
If I had my choice,
I'd be in Paris,
Illinois.
A little bit of that old school
Sinatra stuff you like.
Yeah.
Check it out. Sunday Drive.
All right, let's play one of the number ones here.
How about, let's do Wanna Be That song.
Can I request that one?
Yes, you can.
All right. Brett Eldridge is here.
He's going to play us out with Wanna Be that song.
Lying you out.
Here we go.
There he is.
In the flesh.
All right.
Check out Sunday Drive, his new record.
I endorse it.
Brett, good to see you, bud.
Good to see you all.
Thanks for coming by.
And I know we're on vacation on Friday.
when your record was out on release day.
Sorry we couldn't do this then.
It's all right.
As long as in the first week, it's all the same.
It's all the same, man.
It's all the same.
As long as we get to sing,
it's just fun to sing right now.
I don't really get to do much of that song.
Amy, anything you want to say?
No, I really like your,
I just encourage people to get the album.
I love it.
Good days.
Yes.
Good day.
Good day?
Sorry, I added in this.
It makes you feel good.
Yeah.
I like it.
That might be my favorite from the album.
Probably single two.
Yeah.
Who knows?
I was thinking nobody ever.
Who knows?
Yeah.
I always makes me so nervous.
It's going to be anything.
That would be a good second one.
All right.
A little more.
Thank you for having me.
Good to see you, Brett.

Hey guys, welcome to the show. Morning studio.
Morning.
Brett Eldridge will be in later today. He's going to play a couple songs too.
His new record's so good. I was talking about it yesterday a little bit.
Where do I start? I saw Chick-fil-A was voted.
Best chain restaurant again for the sixth year in a row.
And then when you say that, the haters come flying out.
Let me explain to everyone why Chick-fil-A is.
so good. It's because it's good. It's cheap and the service is great. It's not, if you just put the
food out against a crazy, fancy place, you're not going to go, well, this is the best food. But for the
price point, it's fantastic. That's why it's clean, it's good, it's cheap. Friendly. Yeah. And so that's why
Chick-fil-A wins. Anytime you say anything's fantastic, people want to be haters. Go, it's not the best.
but it didn't win because it absolutely is the best tasting period by far.
It's just best overall.
And I think when you can go in with $10 and buy two people a meal and it still be pretty good,
that's why it wins.
And you love the fries.
Oh, yeah.
And I also love the chicken sandwiches.
I could go there.
I would choose, if I had to choose one fast food place to go to for the rest of my life,
but we're all you, AAA.
Yeah.
But it's a chain.
So it's not just fast food, but chain.
But, I mean, Taco Bell would be a close second,
and they're open on Sundays.
I tell you.
Because I guess I just wouldn't eat on Sunday.
Best chain.
Yours is.
I'll go Chick-fil-A.
Lunchbox.
Oh, McDonald's.
Pound for pound?
Pound for pound.
Because, again, cost is a factor in this.
We're not just going best tasting.
Right.
Because Chick-fil-A, I can do without the fries.
Like, McDonald's, I can get the burger and fries.
Chick-fil-A, I just throw the fries away.
Oh, my gosh.
Man, it's chick filet or if it's a burger, Wendy's is really strong.
They don't have the best fries, but their meat is really good, and they get the frosty, and then pretty good fries.
But chick filets, for me, I would think I would pick them too.
I'd put olive garden up there, too.
It's a different kind of chain.
You just went up a notch, though.
Yes, I did, and it costs a little more, but you're getting better, and it doesn't cost a whole lot compared to the others.
Like, we went to Carabas the other night, and I don't, I've been to Carabas enough.
I like Carabas.
Caitlin loves Carabas.
And she was like, I know the whole menu.
Olive Garden is, she's a big Olive Garden fan too.
Olive Garden's my jam, though, when it's, because they're both kind of Italian.
Not kind of, they both are.
It's probably fully Italian?
I guess I haven't been a whole whole lot enough to know.
Yeah.
But I'm going to go Chick-fil-A, Olive Garden.
I love In and Out Burger.
Oh.
Because it doesn't cost that much.
And I like the meat a lot, but it's not in enough places.
Regional.
Yeah.
I'm going to go.
As far as chains go, I'm going to go Chick-fil-A, olive garden.
I do like Outback.
It costs more.
I get it.
But for like Fancy Night Out or Red Lobster,
fancy night out, red lobsters, we went there again.
You know, they don't keep the lobsters up front anymore.
Why?
People don't want to see what they're going to eat.
Or Corona.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Interesting.
I don't think you have to do.
Corona will have to do with the lobsters being up front?
People put their hand in it.
There's nobody in the lobby to see it.
Oh, okay.
And that's why it was a presentation thing, maybe.
I don't know.
But they didn't have it.
We went the other night.
I feel like PETA probably complained or something.
Well, they've been doing that for a long time.
You can always call our line too.
If we don't answer, there's a voicemail, leave it.
We check them every day.
877-77 Bobby.
For example, Amy, this is a clip about,
you, here you go. I just want to make a comment, please tell Amy, don't yell, what? And I use
y'all's podcast. I listen to it every day when I walk, but tell her to stop. It's kind of
startling. Anyway, love the show, love everybody on it. Thanks for listening. Amy, thoughts.
Wait, I can't go, what, but Ray can go, yeah, or whatever. Which I love when Ray does that,
and I will work on that if it's annoying. I don't think it's that annoying. I don't think it's that
annoying. But I just want you to hear because yesterday someone said that they were really annoyed with me
when I eat a cookie and I'm like, ugh, I have to go on a diet for eight months.
So you can also call and share what a thing we do that's annoying.
Totally, because we need, we, I welcome constructive criticism.
She was super nice about it. So that was fine. She wasn't rude. Yeah. So I can appreciate
the criticism. Okay. I don't know if appreciate it, but understand. No, I can, no, I've got,
I've matured a lot. Nice. I can appreciate it and know, okay,
Maybe that is annoying.
I should work on it.
Or maybe I shouldn't startle people.
877-77 Bobby.
You showed your kids Back to the Future?
Yeah, and they loved it.
Where is it now?
What do you mean?
Where?
How'd they watch it?
Oh, we were in Colorado.
And where we were staying, my brother-in-law, he has all the movies.
Like DVDs?
DVDs.
And so he has a little movie room and they just go in there and they watch it.
Actually, he has a Back to the Future poster up in the movie room.
And they're like, we want to watch that one.
So they put it in and we watched the first one
And then they watched a little bit of the third one
So they really enjoyed it
It was so good and I love that they loved it
Because it reminded me how good it is
And I like that they can go back in time and still enjoy it
That's how you know the movie's good
Because it holds up
You know I watched The Princess Bride with Caitlin recently
I'd never seen it from the 80s
I really enjoyed it
For an 80s movie it held up pretty well
Mount Rushmore of 80s movies
if you haven't to do four of them.
I would for sure have to go dirty dancing,
steel magnolius,
top gun.
Oh, top gun, good one.
And Goonies.
Oh, okay.
Mine are going to be
Karate Kid.
Did you ever watch Karate Kids?
Good one, yeah.
Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.
I have not watched that.
One of my favorite movies of all time.
Because I learned a lot too,
because they go back through time,
and they see all the famous people
like Socrates, Billy the Kid.
I wonder if your kids
would like that one.
I have it on my list of things to watch
eventually in life.
Beetlejuice.
Is I'm on Mount Rushmore of 80s movies?
Do you ever watch that with Michael Keaton?
Yep.
Beetlejuice, beetle juice.
And then either, Commando.
What is that?
The first action movie I really liked
with Arnold Schwarzenegger.
You never saw Commando?
No.
And don't make me.
Yeah, I think I'm going to go.
I think I'm going to go Commando.
Karate Kid, Commando, Beetle Juice.
And Bill and Ted.
I was totally different in our movies.
We were so young, though, because we were born in the 80s.
Yeah.
Yeah, we didn't match any, huh?
Mm-mm.
I didn't put Princess Bride on there.
I didn't put Back to the Future because we're talking about it.
Yeah, those are good.
Did you ever see Neverending Story?
Yes.
Did you like that?
Loved it.
I thought that's what I was watching when I was watching Princess Bride.
The Big White Dog.
I kept asking her, where's the dog?
Mm-hmm.
She was like, what are you talking about?
That's never-ending story.
Different.
Are they about the same thing?
No.
The Batman came out with Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson.
You didn't like that?
I don't know if I've seen it
But I mean I don't want to
Mad Max
The original one with Mel Gibson
Tina Turner was in that one lunchbox
Yeah I know
It's a good movie
You have favorite 80s movie?
Yeah I have
Coming to America
Good one
Or Stand By Me
Oh those are so good too
Yeah that's a good one too
The Leeches
Yes
That's what
Anytime I think you stand by me
I immediately go to the leeches
And you don't even have a weiner
You're right I don't
You don't even have a weiner
Yeah
Has anybody have had leeches here on them?
Yeah, of course.
You have?
Uh-huh.
I haven't.
Never that look like that.
The leeches in Arkansas that when we would be places were like smaller and rounder.
We had leeches.
They'd be like, oh, you got a leech.
Like no big deal?
No, it was a big deal, but it would be like getting a big tick.
See, ticks were pretty common.
But when you get like a big tick, that is a weird one.
But now ticks are crazy because people get Lyme disease.
I know.
Like we never thought about Lyme disease as a kid.
Yeah.
Nobody was even getting Lyme disease where I was.
And we had ticks all up.
Maybe it's a different kind.
Well, maybe they were, but they didn't know that's what they had wrong with them.
And because, I mean, some doctors or people, I don't know, don't believe that that's a real disease.
What?
They don't, I swear.
Yeah, it's a thing.
Like, there's people that have it that are the same people that thought that wayward, what was the name of that, what's the name of that?
Wayfair.
Wayfair was selling things with children, selling kids.
Trafficking.
Did you see how that even started?
Yes.
It was someone on Reddit going, what if?
Right.
It wasn't even a real thing.
Okay.
I, yes, I know things spread on the internet.
I just know that I follow a couple people on Instagram that have Lyme disease and they
sometimes will have to stand up for the fact that they have it.
And it took many, many years to even find a doctor that would help diagnose them properly.
People don't even think dinosaurs are real.
Some people don't.
There are, what?
Yeah.
But this is like people, they really.
really have a disease, I'm saying even doctors can't help them and they don't think that it's real.
Like, you haven't seen that?
Mm-mm. That's why I was blown away by that's why I started going, when I bring dinosaurs into
their argument, you know, I've been shocked.
Yeah.
I'm very excited about a new TV show starting as far as shooting it.
Mm-hmm.
It's a show on Nat Geo.
We're doing 16 episodes.
It's called Breaking Bobby Bones.
And I go and find people with stories similar to mine that come from backgrounds that some
people would think were rough.
and then now they do crazy cool jobs,
much like my story.
And so we were going to go out to Idaho,
outside of Boise, next week,
and just got delayed.
It's just all the COVID restrictions.
Oh, it got delayed?
So now that's a later one.
We're doing like three episodes away now.
In a couple weeks, I'm not sure if I can share these details, really,
but in a couple weeks I'm going,
there's a female wrestler who wrestles in like the women wrestling.
Oh, I didn't tell you what the other guy did, too.
He's a blind kayaker.
And I was going to train blind, Whitewater Rapid.
I know. And I'll share with you guys this stuff until they tell me not to. But that was the first episode. I have to train blind, like this blinded mask. And then he, because he's a blind kayaker who goes through crazy white water stuff. Well, how do you know if you're approaching a rock?
That's what I was going to find out. So like I hear his story. And then I try to do what he does.
That's very scary. So also you're going to wrestle a girl or as a girl.
Something like that.
Yeah.
So I go and she's a female professional wrestler
for like a women's wrestling organization.
So I'm going to go and again,
not quite sure, but I'm going to go and wrestle.
But now that's the first one coming up in a few weeks.
But everybody's all the COVID restrictions,
which I'm happy.
Like I'm not happy our show is delayed,
but I'm happy that people are trying to be as secure as possible.
Yeah.
With who's getting on sets and stuff.
I did read a story too,
that half of recovered COVID-19 patients have heart damage.
You know, they know so little about this right now,
and I'm not going to stay on this,
is the only time I'm talking about it today,
but they know so little about it,
and it changes so fast,
but that's why it was called the novel coronavirus,
because it's brand new.
And people would come out early and go,
hey, we think this is going to be,
and some of it was right, some of it was wrong,
but that's just because it hasn't been tested enough.
Studies show half of recovered COVID-19 patients have heart damage.
They continue to find out more and more.
You know, and they think,
not to get anybody down.
My only
consistent thing I say about it is take care of yourself.
Don't depend on anyone to take care of you.
Go out,
wear a mask if you're around, folks.
Wash your hands.
Stay away from folks if you can.
But take care of yourself, you know?
You keep your hands out of your mouth.
Yeah.
That's the hard one for me.
I keep your hands out of my eyes and my nose and my mouth.
Yeah.
And I think for a lot of young people,
including myself because I've had these thoughts, well, okay, if I get it, I guess, you know,
I think that I'll be fine, but there's so much that we don't know and everybody's bodies
reacting differently that it's like, too, maybe you recover, but 10 years from now,
maybe you have some side effects in your heart or other organs that are a result of you having
it that maybe you wouldn't have encountered at that point in your life.
So you still should be concerned about whether or not you're going to get it.
Well, that's what school's going in.
I hope kids get to go to school.
I don't think there's a single person that doesn't want kids to go to school.
But, you know, and everyone's going, well, the kids have immune.
What about the teachers?
Yeah.
That's what I think about, too.
Like a teacher who isn't getting paid enough anyway.
And they have to go in and sacrifice.
And they're going in.
It's dangerous to them.
What about a 55-year-old teacher?
A 70-year-old teacher.
So we all want kids to be in school.
I mean, you have two kids.
You want them to be in school.
Absolutely.
I know that they're, I mean, because we're not set up as a homeschool family.
I think for certain people homeschooling works.
But for my kids, it's a major setback for us.
Big time.
Socially, emotionally, their development, like their social skills, like a lot of it,
not just even the learning part.
It's like all of them being a kid part.
But?
It's setting us back.
Like, yeah, so I want them in school, not just for the education, but for what it does
for them emotionally and socially, because I see that the difference in them just being
in our house all the time.
No, my point is the butt isn't about your kids.
It's like, but you don't want them just running back to school.
Correct.
Yeah.
No.
I mean, we'll keep them at home as long as we need to until it's safe.
You're correct.
I mean, if we can give billion dollars to airlines, we can give billions of schools and let them.
Try to figure it out.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Keep your fingers out of your mouth.
It's a big one.
That was, I was talking about that Gabby Barrett sucked her thumb until she was, that's who I was talking about earlier.
Oh, until she was how old, eighth grade?
Yeah.
Isn't that crazy?
Everybody's got their thing.
But Gabby Barrett said that she sucked her thumb until the eighth grade.
She had to stop because it was messing up her two front teeth so bad.
That's what I try to tell my daughter.
She doesn't believe me.
She still?
Yeah, but hers is a, it's a soothing thing for her.
She did it at the orphanage.
I'm not shocked that she's 13 and still does it.
That's why I'm like, eighth grade.
That doesn't seem that weird because now that I have kids, like there's a lot of stuff that happens.
You just think 13 is a lot older than it is, but it's really still young.
I peed the bed till second grade.
I think that was just emotional stuff
more than it was anything else.
Trauma.
And then biting my nails,
I've been fighting that my whole life.
And so I've determined,
I'll never quit biting my nails,
but I can always wash my hands more.
And it's not eliminating all.
I don't know how y'all do that.
My husband bites his nails too,
and it's disgusting.
I don't think it's great either.
You're acting like I think it's wonderful.
You don't.
You keep doing it.
But I doesn't mean I like it, you know?
That's my vice.
What do you do?
What do you still do?
I pull my hair out.
This has come up twice in two days you're pulling your hair out, huh?
Well, that's what I do.
In fact, it came up when we were with our family last week.
We were talking about how now they see me just pulling it, like just pulling at it.
I don't pull it all the way out.
But occasionally, because I had to, I was getting a bald spot, so I had to stop.
And now I just pull it.
But occasionally I rip it out and it feels so good.
Don't judge me ever again for biting my fingernails.
Why?
Don't judge me ever again.
The latest from Nashville and Hollywood.
Morgan number two, 30-second skinny.
Kimberly from Little Big Town talked about her favorite family heirloom.
We have, in my family, a beat-up Bible.
The bindings falling off.
Some of the pages are just stuffed in there still.
In the front is written the births of all the children since the mid-1800s in our family.
And some of the children weren't even named because they lived a day or two.
and oh, it's so special.
It's such a treasure.
Mark and Midland remembers being bands
from meeting George Strait from his mom.
The first time we played for George Strait,
I got a little too excited
and proceeded to drink
almost an entire bottle of tequila by myself
waiting to meet George Strait.
I think it was a combination of Jess Cameron
and my mother that sent me home
before George came down.
It's pretty embarrassing when you get sent home
by your mother at a George Strait show.
Miranda Lambert is a big fan
of fellow country artists,
Towns. I think that she is very special. She's one of those songwriter career type artist.
I feel like she could make an amazing catalog because of her lyrics and what she's not
afraid to say. She doesn't write conventional love songs. She writes about things that are a little
hard to hear sometimes, which I think is amazing. I'm Morgan number two. That's Your Skinny.
It's time for the good news. With lunchbox.
Tell me something good. This lady in Nebraska's on a way to her daughter's wedding. She's been an ER
nurse for 35 years and she sees a big car wreck right in front of her and she's like, oh my goodness,

And he's not even the real father.
He's just dating the girl's mom, but he says, I'm kind of like the stepfather.
Kind of like the stepfather.

Do we know?
I know.
He does.
He got arrested for child endangerment and all that.
And I drove when I was 12, but never on a highway.
It was a dirt road, which I'm not saying it's right.
Yeah, but you grew up in.
a rural area. I think a lot of people that grew up like you did drove at a young age.
Yeah. And mine was mostly to chase dogs. Yeah. I mean, you had to. You were doing it.
Like, I didn't drive till driver's ed. We had, we got permits at 14, though. I didn't have my

Yesterday, Eddie wasn't here because he went to Florida, got sick.
He got a COVID test.
Today, Eddie's not here.
We were going to quarantine him, but he's still feeling bad, right, Eddie?
Yeah, I'm not feeling better, guys.
Like, I feel like now I can add body aches to this thing.
Oh.
Now, body aches is a sign that is not allergies.
Oh.
Right?
Yeah.
I have no idea, but, like, I don't know if I'm just tired or what, because I've been in bed for two days straight.
So that could be it, but I don't know.
I don't feel any better.
Both Amy and Lunchbox are looking at me like Eddie's got corona.
Yeah, because people are just.
say they're just exhausted.
Yep. Can't get out of bed.
Now, Eddie hasn't sat in that chair since he left, because Morgan's running cameras right now, right?
Yeah, yeah. So you're okay with sitting over there in his spot.
Yeah, I better be. I mean, I'm hoping so.
Eddie, do you think you have corona?
No, I honestly don't think so. I'm so careful that I don't think that I can have it.
I mean, I just really think it's a bad case of a sinus infection.
But I feel like, Eddie, there's tons of people out there that got it that weren't being
reckless or irresponsible. They were being careful, too. It just happened. You don't have to go to
Kid Rock's Bar and Grill to get it. Right. Yeah. You can just get it. I know, but I was not around
people. Like, anytime I had to go around people, I wore a mask, and I don't, I mean, I'm assuming that's what
you do. Well, you don't have your results, right? No, I do not. They told me they will call me if I
test positive, and they will email me if it's negative. So I've been checking my email non-stop.
And it's hit in refresh, refresh, refresh, refresh, refresh.
Florida added another 12,600 cases yesterday of Corona to bring their total up to 282,000.
Yeah, I feel like you just go there and breathe.
And Eddie Wendezer-Betka.
Even if you're out there in the ocean.
And let me shout out to all of our Florida listeners, Tampa,
Yeah, we love here.
It's a joke.
This is no shot in any way because we're not in a place of doing great either.
No.
But yeah, Florida, record.
and they're like, let's just open up Disney World too.
Let's just have it at it.
Florida's like, man, we might as I won't win everything.
Here's the thing, though. Here's the thing.
I feel like I got to Florida on Tuesday.
I started feeling sick on Friday.
I don't know how quick this thing works.
That's okay.
That's in the early part of the range.
Okay.
Because I'm feeling like if I do have corona,
it could have been somewhere here in Nashville.
No, now you're just trying to get out of the fact
that you went to Florida during a vacation.
I'm just saying that's not 100%.
Well, nothing's 100% Eddie.
Yeah.
I hope you don't have Corona.
Oh, I hope so too.
So if he does have it, that means he has to stay home for like six months.
No, it means he has to stay home until two negative tests.
Oh, wow.
Ray, why your eye so big?
I mean, not saying that I predicted this, but he did choose COVID Bay over Mandalay Bay in Vegas.
Okay, okay.
COVID Bay.
Did you make that up?
I mean, obviously I've been thinking about it for when he was going, Ray's home last night going, but when they bring Eddie on, he's writing options.
Oh, man, I'm a big punching back for these two. I know it.
Yeah, oh yeah, you are.
I mean, because you made us feel so guilty about going to Vegas and how irresponsible we were, and then here you are, laid up in bed, can't get out of bed.
Eddie, can I ask you a question?
Yes.
Can you taste things still fully?
Yes, I can taste and I can smell.
And I don't have a fever.
But everybody's symptoms are different.
That's true, but I mean, the tasting and the smell things are big signs.
If he'd have said no.
Well, we'll get the results soon, or he will.
I mean, my head just hurts really bad, and that's just what makes me think that sinus infection.
Do you get sinus infections often?
Twice a year.
Do you get them from the water?
I don't know.
I mean, I haven't put that together.
Does this feel like it has in previous years if you get it twice a year?
Yes, minus the body aches.
Are you isolated from your family or are you still having to bring you soup?
No, I'm in my room.
I haven't left my room.
I'll go down to get water or something, but no, they don't come in to see me.
I'm trying to keep my distance as much as possible.
And when did you get?
What day of the week did you get the test?
I got it Sunday.
No, no, Saturday, Saturday.
Okay, so Sunday, Monday, today's Tuesday.
He should have it in the next couple days.
Because you got yours, how many days after?
Two days, 48 hours.
Are you answering calls from unknown numbers though, Eddie?
Yeah, I mean, just you guys.
No one's really called me, just you guys.
Will they call you with your results or did they email you?
No, they just said he'll call if it's yes.
They'll email if it's no.
Gotcha.
Well, we're thinking about you.
Thank you, man.
I miss you guys.
I really want this to come negative so I can get over this crap and get back to work.
Well, and if it's negative and you get over that crap,
you also know you don't have it and it's not asymptomatic too, which is a good thing.
Right.
Because who knows who has it and just isn't being affected by it.
I'm getting a test tomorrow.
Because I have to do a full physical for National Geographic.
I'm starting to work for them.
And so I have to get a full physical and I'm getting a COVID test while I'm there.
I tried to get online and go to like a Walgreens or CBS and click it because they have all these options.
And it goes, okay, I mentioned this earlier, right?
Or they're like, do you have a symptom?
And I was like, nope, don't have a test.
And I was like, do you have a symptom?
And I was like, okay.
we can probably see you. So you just lie and say you have something.
You get tested.
Not that you're encouraging. No, no, of course not.
Okay, Eddie, be good. Be safe.
All right, thanks, guys.
All right, there he is. Our producer, Eddie, who may have COVID.
Wow. What do you think? Yes or no, Amy, if you're betting.
Yes. I'm going to bet no. I'm just going to say it now. I'm going to bet no.
I don't want to put out the bad vibes.
It's no vibe. Yeah, if I had to put money on it, yes.
Yes. He's got it. Morgan?
I don't think so.
Oh, we got two yeses, two nos.
you know 100% has it
it's not just a coincidence that he's having
these weird body aches right after his trip to
Florida which is right now the hot spot
for coronavirus. Okay, we'll see.
We'll see on tomorrow's show. We'll tell you if Eddie
this is Brooke from Florida.
So this is a full circle moment.
When I was in elementary school
I would go to school and listen to Amy
tells a joke. Amy tells a joke
and now I drive my daughter
to daycare and we
listen to the morning corny together.
It's just crazy to think that I've been listening to you almost my whole life.
Thank you.
Bye.
I love you.
She sounds like she could be our age.
Cool.
Because you're 39?
Yeah.
I don't know if that's accurate.
Why?
We've been doing the show.
What?
I'm forever young.
That's why.
She's obviously younger than us.
And then what was she in?
Middle.
He's at elementary school.
Elementary school?
What year did you and I start doing the show together?
2006.
Mm-hmm.
And then, because you were 25 then?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Dang.
Yeah, 25.
I just turned 25.
And so said she was 8.
Okay?
That's 18 years.
18 years.
She has a little older voice though.
Mature.
Mature.
That's all we're saying.
Yeah.
Here's Sam and Kelly from Arkansas.
Hey, Bobby.
Morning Studio.
We're seniors at E.C.A.
And we're taking our MCAT and August to apply to medical school.
We're wondering if you have any advice for us before we take our test.
We can't wait for you to be governor.
Arkansas. Love you. All right. Nice. Yeah, of course. Is this going to sound because the simple
things are often simple for a reason, the most important things. First of all, you got to get
sleep because your hormones will be out of whack if you're not getting the right amount of sleep.
You have to eat right, because if you don't, your blood sugar can be wrong. And all that stuff
affects how you think and how you move. So you're smart. You're taking an MCAT. I don't even know
the Mcat is. What is that? A lawyer test? Medical school. I'm going to be doctors.
See, that's what I'm saying. I'm the idiot. You know this stuff. Yeah, it's always that.
that. And talk to someone who took it last year. Your brain needs water. A very recent
version of it. And blueberries. Okay, well, we're on different paths now, but that's what I
would say. Do all those things that we just talked about there. All right, I'm going to play
you the guitar part from a country song in me see if you can name the song. You ready?
Now, these are just isolated guitar and these are very famous country songs. No singing, no other
instruments. See if you can name the song. Number one. Listen to that one for a second.
What is that? Wagon wheel.
Darius Wagonwell. Good job.
All right, see if you can name this one. What's that?
Sweet Home Al. No. Oh, that's the one that sounds like it.
It's Kid Rock all summer long.
Okay. Yeah, it has both of them in there.
Here's a clip of that.
I hear it now.
See if you can name this one. Number three.
Think claps in that, though. Do you know that one?
What is that?
Who's bed if your boots been under?
Any man of mine.
Oh.
It is and I have any man of mine.
Okay. Name this one.
Is that gone? No.
Listen.
Oh, Dirk's?
Yeah, what's the song?
It's hard.
Hold on.
She was a sweet salmon jammer from southern Alabama.
That's a matter of day for a nine pound hammer.
What was I thinking?
Yeah, there you go.
What was I thinking?
All right, one more.
Can you name this one?
Brastical Flats.
Nice.
What's that song?
Life is the highway.
Wow.
He nailed that one.
You got four to five.
Nice.
I had a warm up.
You get a reward.
Did you see the woman who ran into the bear running, by the way?
No.
She was running on a trail and she turned like a corner and right into a bear.
Why? What did she do?
And they both rolled down a hill.
What?
I saw this yesterday on Twitter.
A woman in a 30 sought medical help for minor injuries after she collided with a bear while running on a trail at Glacier National Park.
The stats of the woman was on a trail.
She's a runner.
Huckleberry Lookout Trail 9 a.m. about four miles down the trail.
She was running with two other people and she was the lead runner when her and the bear collided and tumbled together off the trail.
Oh my gosh.
Once separated the bear.
ran off. The woman
and her two friends walked down the trail and
met rangers. The bear and the woman are okay
and hopefully they're not going to chase a bear
down to kill the bear because the bear didn't do anything except
be in the trail. And here's thinking about
animals too, even the animals you don't like. Even snakes.
Snakes, bears,
any animal, you're like, ooh, they don't want you as much as you don't want them.
The only reason a bear would even attack or a snake
would even attack is if it's threatened
or if it's starving. It's just like a human.
Like we're not walking around.
just trying to fight people mostly.
But if we're threatened, we fight,
and if we're hungry or somebody with us is hungry,
you know, we fight.
But the woman had minor injuries to her head and her arm,
and they're not closing anything down.
They were just like, that's unfortunate.
But just imagine you're running and then,
wham!
Right into a bear.
That's crazy?
I'd freak out.
You know, I've been fascinated with germs for years and years.
You know, before Corona,
I was the guy that was always wearing sleeves
just so I didn't have to touch door handles,
and I would wear masks on airplanes
and be made fun of.
Oh, how the world comes back around.
Your boy over here doesn't look like such a crazy guy now, does he?
Definitely not.
Thank you.
But I like to read these stories.
A surprise germ source in your house is the toothbrush holder.
Why?
The toothbrush holder, experts say you should rinse it daily and run it through the dishwasher once a week or so.
Because of the toilet stuff coming out.
Because it's sitting in the bathroom.
And it's also onto a thing, your hands on it.
And it's also holding it.
holding out something that goes in your mouth.
That's true. But people should shut the lid before they flush.
I get it. We should. I should do a lot of things.
I got roasted yesterday for laughing about Caitlin falling in the toilet.
I didn't laugh because I thought I was right. I just thought it was funny when she came out and said she fell in so deep and went to her knee.
I laughed, but I'm doing better. I'm working on myself.
Here's Amy's pile of stories.
So there's this guy on Reddit and his girlfriend recently moved in with him.
But now he has this new house roll.
He doesn't get into his bed without taking a shower every single night.
And he's demanding now she does the same.
So he took it to Reddit to see if he was the bad guy for requiring his girlfriend to shower before bed.
Well, I don't think he's the bad guy.
I think it's, uh...
That's what he wants to know, though.
It's an interesting ask.
I'm going to say no, he's not the bad guy.
Now, in a flip of that, my girlfriend will not get in the bed herself unless she takes
a shower beforehand.
I have friends like that, too.
She doesn't require me to.
I think it's encouraged.
But she doesn't require me to.
But I'm going to say no, not the bad guy.
Interesting request.
And I would say if she's going to do it, she can go to him and go,
this is a negotiation.
I'm happy to do it.
But you must now do something that makes me feel more comfortable.
Yeah.
She maybe needs to take something to him.
She's offended by it.
She feels as though he is saying she's dirty or something.
If it was just about her, I could see that.
If he made this roll up just about her.
No, it's just, he has a pre-bed shower ritual.
Speaking of living with someone for the first time yesterday,
I was sitting on the toilet and Caitlin walked in.
Cool.
Yeah, it's the first time it's happened to us.
Did you have the door shut?
Yeah.
I don't think she thought I was in there.
Oh.
And then so what did you do?
I don't care about that stuff.
What would she do?
Didn't react it strongly in any way.
She was like, I was just getting some band-aids because she gets a blister on her foot.
Uh-huh.
And I was like, well, there we go.
I just, I'm not.
I'm not scared of that.
I don't hide from it.
It's just not something that I'm like all about.
Right.
And I don't fart on her.
I don't fart on anybody.
Like lunchbox's thing is farting.
Yeah,
he likes that.
That's his thing.
Yeah, it's funny.
He'll do it here.
I'm not like that even with dudes for the most part.
So,
but yeah,
we had a moment yesterday.
Wow, yeah.
That's a big thing.
She saw me poop.
What else you got?
So, well, Jennifer Anniston and Katie Perry had a moment.
A little bit different.
Okay.
Katie asked Jennifer to be her daughter's godmother.
So Jennifer Aniston is already the godmother to Coco, which is Courtney Cox and David Arquette's daughter, who's 16 years old now.
I saw a video on Instagram.
She's an older kid now.
Yeah, 16.
So she knows how to do the whole godmother thing.
And I guess her and Katie Perry are super close.
They became friends about 10 years ago.
And even during coronavirus, they've been going on tons of walks together.
They're probably living by each other.
Social distance.
walks, but Katie's giving birth in a couple of weeks, and she has appointed or anointed
Jennifer the godmother.
All right.
And Jennifer accepted.
What else you got?
Well, you know, I just feel like with relationships, especially in the country music world,
there's a lot that are falling apart.
So I thought I would highlight one that's going strong.
Go ahead.
Shout out Carrie Underwood and Mike Fisher.
They recently celebrated 10 years of marriage, and they posted some photos.
They celebrated each other on.
online on Instagram, and yeah, they got married July 10th, 2010.
So it's been officially 10 years.
You know, I'm going to bring this up.
It's about Ray Mundo.
I forgot about it.
I mean, until you bring this.
I saw Ray post something on someone's Instagram.
Ray, turn your mic up.
That was so funny and so, it was, I would have never said this.
Do you know what I'm talking about?
And then he took it down.
He deleted it from his own page.
I'll tell you coming out.
Yes.
And he, this celebrity.
Was it Sam Hunt?
Hold on.
I'm not going to tell you anything about it.
Ray posted something on a country music stars page.
And I lolled when I saw it and I was like, oh.
Okay, hold on.
And then I went back to look and the guy had taken it down.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'll tell you in the next 20 minutes.
All right.
But it was a little bit ago?
I'm not saying anything else.
I think I know what you're talking about, though.
Did you see it?
It was the celebrity and their significant other doing something?
No more.
Why are you doing this?
Oh, because I want to know if I'm thinking the same.
Well, I'll tell you in 20 minutes.
Okay, fine, I'll write it down.
Okay.
So that way you know I...
Right before Brett Eldridge comes in, I'll share this story.
Okay, I mean, that's my pile.
Okay, back in the second.
That was Amy's pile of stories.
It's time for the good news.
With Bobby.
Tell me something good.
A rescue dog in Tennessee became a hero when she alerted her owner to a house fire next door.
Rue, three years old, woke up her owner Jeff Lecates,
with frantic and unusual bark.
according to the Franklin Fire Department.
When he opened the door, the dog ran out,
and then he saw his neighbors
burning at the direction the dog was running.
So he goes next door, he bangs on the door, he woke up
the family, there were three
people on the house and their pets, everybody got
out, and he's like, holy crap, none
of this would have happened if it wasn't
for that dog. Isn't
that crazy? And by the way, the woman
whose house caught fire, she's a dog
groomer who helped him
adopt the dog 15 months ago. It all comes
back around. My dog would not
do that. My dog would see a fire in my house or next door and just go and scrape his arm on the
food closet trying to get dog food. All right, there you go. That's what it's all about.
That was Tell Me Something Good. Did you know now you can pin Instagram comments?
I heard about that. I haven't personally done it myself. I have a couple times because most
times people will say really mean stuff to get people to comment or like it and then it goes to the
top of your page. So if I just pin a couple of the top, it doesn't happen. Oh, I think
I think about to say you pin the mean ones, but no, you pin better ones.
Yes.
Got it.
Because I don't want people trolling and then being rewarded for trolling.
I don't mind the mean ones, but I posted a video two days ago.
And I haven't shaved in about a week or so.
I try to shave closer to any kind of shoots that I do because sometimes my skin will break out.
And people are just ripping me because of my bad beard.
You can't help that.
And your beard isn't bad anyways.
I can't help.
My face is ugly.
Okay.
God gave me this face.
Yeah.
What's wrong with people?
What's wrong with people?
All right, time for Amy's Morning Corny.
The Morning Corny!
What did people say about the couple who had the same shoe size?
I don't know what they say.
That they were soulmates.
Nice.
That was the Morning Corny.

So Michael Ray, here's a clip of Michael Ray's music.
It's a good song.
I like that song.
Yeah.
And so I was looking at Michael Ray's Instagram, and he's holding a bottle of some kind of water.
And it's just him holding a bottle of water.
And he goes, you know I love this kind of water.
It's now available, blah, blah, blah.
And then Ray Mundo, our audio producer, he puts in a comment, but will you still love it in eight months?
Which, hold on.
Because Michael Ray, a lot of Ray's here.
Michael Ray was married to Carly Pierce for eight months.
That's a home run.
That's a home run.
I mean, it is hilarious.
So then Michael Ray
deletes it from his page.
Did he reach out to you at all?
No, he didn't.
I was a little butt hurt about that
because me and my fiancee were watching it
and we saw all the likes that were coming in
and then it got removed from his page.
It got so many likes it was getting elevated
to the top of the page.
It's how I saw it.
Which was great.
It came to me in the moment.
I knew it was going to be a hit,
but then, yeah, he was offended by it.
You know it feel bad that you made a joke about his divorce?
When it's that short of one,
I just feel like they kind of made a joke of it themselves.
I mean, seriously, you've got to vet somebody better than that.
Anybody can get me with somebody for eight months.
Yeah, okay.
Anyway, I saw it, laughed out loud, then thought, ooh, that's low.
Too low or...
I mean, probably...
Go ahead.
I mean, because I think Ray's so funny, it's...
But that was also like a trolling comment.
If it would have...
But also, I guess because I know, if I didn't know Ray, I'd be like, oh, yeah, a troll.
But I know Ray's not a troll.
I know he's just funny.
So he was just putting it out there.
I feel like, you know, every, there probably, even though it was eight months, there's a lot of hurt happening for both of them, I'm sure.
And it wasn't easy.
So probably low.
Lunchbox?
No, never too low.
If you go out there and you publicize your marriage, sorry.
Never too low.
Great job, right?
It was funny, but I wouldn't have posted it.
Did you get any followers from it?
No, not really.
My fiancee approved of it.
Usually she's politically correct and says don't do that, but she was fine with it.
It's time for the good news.
With Amy.
Tell me something good.
So definitely got a shout out to this 16-year-old named Heddy Price Bailey from North Carolina.
She normally is super involved in sports and activities in school.
But with coronavirus, all of that came to a halt.
And she found herself with a lot of time on her hands.
And she thought, okay, I want to use this time to help others.
I want to use time to help kids.
So she started Hetty's smile boxes.
And she fills the boxes up with stuff that the kids like and sends them to them.
She wants to spread joy.
And people can nominate kids in their community that are deserving of these joy boxes.
And she picks, once they're not, she goes through the nomination, she picks someone out.
Then she researches them to find out what toys they like.
What box would, they would really enjoy opening and then make some a handmade card.
And she even started like a go fund me so she could start.
afford, like have a way to afford to buy everything for the boxes. So super cool. Her
Instagram is at Hetty's Smile Boxes. At Hetty's Smile Boxes. H-E-T-T-I-S. Oh, cool. I'll check it out.
Anyway, that's great. That's what it's all about right there. That was tell me something good.
So I got a call yesterday from a friend going, hey, I just talked to someone who was duped out of
thousands of dollars because someone claimed they were you and she was sending the money.
What? So let me say, first of all, I'm not asking for money from anybody.
unless we're like, hey, we're doing,
and you hear me actually say it with my voice?
Like, I'm not asking for money.
So supposedly she was helping a guy get back from Haiti,
and then he was stranded in Houston.
The person that she thought was me was asking to get him back.
It all started during the St. Jude Radiothon,
sent gift cards to patients at St. Jude.
The person was emailing her multiple times a day.
He'd order a bunch of stolen merchandise to her house
and then have her ship it to him.
She's older, definitely thought it was me until a few days ago.
She realized it was possibly a scam when you didn't meet up with her,
when you and Caitlin traveled to Little Rock around the 4th of July.
But it's thousands of dollars.
Oh my goodness. That's terrible.
They say, I just don't know if there's a way they can get back to thousands of dollars.
They have all the emails and the IP addresses,
but it's probably somebody from another country.
I'm not asking for anything.
Here's a note that the person sent her acting like me when they sent her flowers,
because they were sending flowers too.
Oh, wow.
Where the note says, couldn't make it because of news from Haiti a little more time.
please, Bobby Bones.
What?
Damn, dang, they were using the Haiti angle.
So don't believe anyone on Instagram
that doesn't have a blue check mark
is messaging you. Not even asking
for money, but that's the thing now where they're
creating all these accounts in other
countries, mostly in other countries.
And they're going, hey, you know, I'm Joe Don
Rooney from Rascal Flats. I'm Eric Church. This is
my secret account. I want
to talk to my real fans on this account. Unless
they have a blue check mark, it
ain't them. It ain't me. I'm not asking
for anything like this. We'll do stuff for veterans or St. Jude, but the money goes to them.
Right. It wouldn't go through you or any other, you don't mail it in somewhere.
They even had her send a gift card to someone in Los Angeles as a thank you for doing Caitlin's
makeup for a party. What? So they found all these ways to get money from this person. Oh, that's so sad.
I mean, I appreciate her looking out for me. Right. But it sucks. Just, there's a lot of people,
in a lot of different ways trying to get over on folks right now.
But especially if they're reaching out online,
make sure they have that blue check mark.
Double check, triple check.
Anyway, I just got that message.
I thought I would...
Because they'll make accounts look exactly like yours,
like with an underscore,
but all your same pictures.
I got a message from one of my close friends
going, hey, is this you?
And it was Mr. Bobba Bob Bones.
There was no why?
Because my name's Mr. Bobby Bones on Instagram.
Yeah.
But...
Yeah, that stinks, huh?
they ever sending her flowers.
Mm-hmm.
So crazy.
Yeah.
That's next level.
Yeah.
That stinks.
Let's go over to Morgan number two and talk about food.
It's time for Food World.
Num, Num, Num, with Morgan number two.
The chip company Lays dropped five new flavors,
and they're all American restaurant inspired.
So like dishes at restaurants?
Yes, basically.
Let me see if I like them.
Give me the first one.
Okay.
It's Lays.
kettle-cooked New York-style pizza,
which is inspired by Grimaldi's in New York City.
I like pizza.
What's a kettle-cooked pizza, though?
I don't know.
I like kettle-cooked chips, potato chips?
Oh, is it like the way they fry it?
Does they fry it?
Yes.
I'll give that a...
Oh.
Yeah, I'm not quite sure what that means, but okay, go ahead.
And then Nashville hot chicken,
inspired by party foul in Nashville.
Yeah.
I've gotten really wimpy with age.
I used to be able to eat hot stuff all the time.
And now I'm like, you know, I eat one little pepper and I freak out.
I don't know what's about the...
I like hot chicken, okay.
I feel like some...
Some people make it very extra now.
Yeah.
Like they're like, what if we do hot chicken, but it's, you know, on top of a platypus,
roasted?
And you're like, no, no, you can meet the chicken.
You don't need all that, you know.
I'll go, okay.
Go ahead.
It's like, hold on.
It's like whenever people make these,
what's the vegetable that,
the green vegetable that's real bitter, but people do so much stuff on it.
Brussels sprouts.
People are like, you got to love our Brussels sprouts, but then they're in caramel, you know,
covered in honeycomb cereal.
Like a heavy sauce.
Like, no, we don't even like the Brussels sprouts.
It's what you're doing to it.
I'll give that the okay.
What else?
Lay's Philly cheese steak, so it's inspired by a place in Philadelphia.
Go ahead.
Lay's wavy carnitas street taco.
Okay, good.
And lays chili.
I'm going to pronounce this wrong.
I know.
Chili, Reliano?
Chili Riano.
Rayano.
Right.
I don't know what that is.
Wait, but what was the one before that?
The Carnitas.
The Lays wavy Carnitas
Street Talk.
Karnitas, like,
Mike, isn't Karnitas like a baby goat head?
No,
pig.
Oh, pig.
Okay.
What is the part that's like
the head of the cow or something?
Like, my dad used to always love that meat
and it's like,
you eat a carbbron.
taco or something. No?
I don't know. But it's like my dad would say it's the best part of the cow and it's like in its
head or the go. I don't know. Okay. Well, anyway. Morgan, is that it? Yeah, they're at retailers
this week if you want to try out. All right. Thank you very much. That was Food World with Morgan
number two. Num, num, num, no. My girlfriend has the craziest talent. I posted this on Instagram yesterday.
She can say a word to her. She can spell it forward and then backward immediately. It's crazy.
She sees the word. And so you can give her a long.
This is a clip from us in the car.
The word is Starbucks.
Let's go.
S-T-A-R-A-C-S-K-U-B-R-A-T-S.
The next word is baseball.
B-A-L-L-L-A-B-E-E-S-A-B.
That's crazy!
Okay, let's do one more.
Okay.
Cabinet.
I'm not spelled out from.
C-A-B-N-E-T-E-N-I-B-A-C.
What is happening here?
I mean, that's a really cool party trick.
And I said, how do you do that?
She goes, what do you mean?
I said, how do you spell out forward and backwards?
She goes, well, if I can spell it forward, I see all the letters, and then I just look at them and go backward.
No, I don't do that.
And she said, do you not see words?
I said, no.
She was like, well, how do you think?
I said, well, my problem is, I'm not a good talker because when I'm talking in my head, I'm three sentences ahead of where my mouth is.
And so a lot of times it come out like because I'm rolling different, but I still can't see words.
Yeah.
She does it fast, too.
Yeah, and people were like, is that a trick?
No, that was her.
the car right there. I just pulled the phone up.
That's wild.
Totally.
You know we watched last night was the first episode of Unsolved Mysteries.
What did you think?
Great.
Ray Riviera.
Yeah.
He's the first one.
Yeah.
It's so sad.
It's really just a documentary.
An unsolved one.
Yes.
I mean, but it's put together really well.
Really well.
Even if you didn't watch Unsolved Mysteries in the past, I think you'll like this show.
The thing is, it finished, that Ray Riviera one, and I didn't like how it felt.
how you felt?
Why?
Because it wasn't complete.
Because I was scared.
Yes, I know, and the music is scary, right?
And then there's that face.
It's like unsolved mysteries.
It's not horror.
Well, no, but well, have you watched the second?
You haven't watched the second one yet.
So this guy was killed and you're trying to figure out what happened to him.
Or he did jump or he killed himself.
No, he did not kill himself.
I don't want to spoil it for listeners.
Okay.
But I'm saying that he ends up dead and you don't know how.
Mysteriously.
I loved it.
It was good.
I watched a second one.
I just need to watch that crap in daylight.
I agree.
So we had to watch.
I needed a pallet cleanser.
So we watched Idiot Abroad,
which is the,
you ever see that show?
It's a little older now.
Ricky Jervase,
they sent it one of their buddies
to all the places around the world.
And it was funny and laughed
and I felt better about going to sleep.
I did that.
And you know what I tried to watch
the floor is lava?
Because Mike D said it's pretty good.
That show was terrible.
The floor is, if there was real lava,
that would be a good show.
I didn't like the floor's lava.
You just pretend it's lava?
Well, it's like orange water.
Okay.
And then if you're just trying to jump across things to make it.
Morgan, do you watch Flores Lava?
No, I haven't watched that one yet.
I saw you laugh over there.
Yeah, it's fine.
It's fine.
How many episodes in of that show are you?
Two and a half.
We watch half of the third one because second one is also good.
It feels weird saying it's good because people had died,
but it's done really well.
I'll say it like that.
and hopefully they can get the mystery solved by putting these stories out there.
But the third one, we've got to make our way through.
It's in subtitles because it's an unsolved mystery from France.
Oh, Parasite.
French Parasite.
No, no.
But apparently whatever happened to this family in France, it's crazy.
Like, people over there freak out about it.
We were either going to watch Jeffrey Epstein or Unsolved Mysteries.
And we chose Unsolved Mysteries because it's kind of the bigger thing right now.
Yeah.
Did you watch the Epstein?
Yeah.
I listened to the Epstein podcast and watched the Netflix, so I did both.
The podcast I'm listening to now called Presidential.
So.
Oh, were these presidents friends with Epstein?
No, because I'm on William Henry Harrison right now.
And so you're talking about one of the first ten presidents.
So William Henry Harrison goes out.
This is my little fact of the day.
He goes out and gives the longest inaugural speech of all time.
It's snowing, it's wet, it's cold.
he doesn't wear a coat because he doesn't want to look weak.
Longest inaugural speech ever
dies 36 days, 30 something days later.
Of a cold?
Yeah, basically pneumonia.
Shortest presidential term ever.
I mean, wear a jacket, people.
I don't even know that was a president.
But I, you know, unsolved mystery.
That's a funny game, Mike.
We should write that.
Was it a president or is it a...
Just a random person?
Or a famous musician from the 60s.
What was his name?
William Henry Harrison.
Yeah.
I'd be local. Oh, yeah. See in the Beatles?

One of four kids, six and under have a smartphone.
What's your reaction to that?
I don't think anybody, six, needs a smartphone.
For sure, not younger than six.
You don't need a smartphone.
Where are you going where you're six and you need a phone?
I don't think the phone, though, is mostly about talking on the phone.
This is about games and tablet type stuff?
I don't use my phone for phone much.
It's just a little computer I walk around with.
Okay.
Because I could see, yeah, I guess if it's a tablet.
My son at seven had a tablet.
with apps, like, and, you know, so there.
Parents said they made the purchase because either A, just their kids asked, or B, they did it so the little one stayed entertained.
Oh my gosh. Well, what did we do? We didn't have that stuff.
Well, we didn't have a lot. And then that's also like our parents going, we didn't get to watch TV all the time.
All relative to the generation you grew up in. But I just thought that was a pretty high number.
It's fun to say that when you're a parent.
Is it?
Do you want to know what it was like for us when we were kids? We didn't have this.
And what do your kids do, roll their eyes?
Yeah, well, they mostly don't understand.
Especially when I say we didn't have the internet, it just wasn't a thing.
We didn't have a computer.
None of that was in the house until much old later in my life.
What's up with your new house, by the way?
Do your kids like it?
Oh, they love it.
Yeah?
Yeah, they were so excited.
The first night they spent the night in it, they could not go to bed, and they woke up at 5 a.m.
the next day because they just couldn't sleep.
And they got up, they got dressed, they came.
downstairs knocked on our door. They're like, hey, in Stashire's 13, she could sleep till noon
if we let her. And she was up at 5 a.m., organizing her closet after she woke us up, of course.
Were you worried that because that's the only house they've lived in so they were adopted,
that would be weird to them? And their therapist even said we should watch out for that
type of change, and it might cause, it might trigger some stuff, and we need to be prepared for
it. So I was doing all the things to be prepared. And they are totally fun.
and doing good.
So I feel good about that.
And my husband really is enjoying it.
I think as a family, it's going to be a good place for us.
What does your husband like about it the most?
Oh, well, we had no idea when we bought it,
that it's in the flight path for the airport.
So he was in the backyard and kept seeing airplanes.
And then more and more airplanes.
And yeah, it's like literally somewhere between approaching the airport.
or taking off or something, our house gets so many flights above it.
And he's a pilot.
And he's a pilot.
And he loves airplanes.
Anytime we're anywhere, if there's an airplane, he can hear it or we see one.
We have to stop what we're doing and look up.
And he can identify the airplane immediately what kind it is.
Like, I can barely even see it.
I'll know if it's a Southwest plane maybe.
But let's say it's not.
It's like a smaller plane, like a more of a private plane.
He can know everything about it.
And I'm like, so he just really excites him.
So he's like, we're never moving.
This is amazing.
How's your kitchen?
It's awesome.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, I love it.
It's a kitchen.
It's open into the living room, which is something we've always wanted because as a family,
we just like that vibe of having a big open space.
And so it's where we hang out the most, I think, is our kitchen living room.
Yeah.
I was in the kitchen yesterday a bunch of the house.
Caitlin loves to cook.
And so she made, she spent six hours making this pork butt.
Did you know?
pork butt's not the butt it's the shoulder fun fact
I don't know why people call it the butt but pork butt is the shoulder
of the pig yeah why don't they call it pork shoulder I don't know
maybe the butt because when you say pork butt I'm like my bet that's tasty
because you think a fat butt on a pig yeah um she spent six hours making pork
butt butt and she put in a I don't know what she did but she worked hard it was
great and then we I ate it again for breakfast this morning to add uh breakfast
tacos with the pork pork butt tacos it's just not it here we go apparently
Butts are named after the barrels pork used to be stored in around the time of the Revolutionary War.
They were called butts. And the reason butts are often called Boston Butts is because they were
considered a New England specialty. So a pork butt is not a butt. That's what we had though for dinner.
Learn something new every day. We did pork butt and then she takes, what's the kind of lettucey?
It's not lettuce. I mean like an herb? No, it's, she makes a salad out of this stuff. It's not lettuce.
Arugula. That's it. That is lettuce. Okay, is that her lettuce? Yeah. She did. I don't. I,
Urugula is so awesome.
It tastes bitter to me.
No, it's nutty.
So I'm not a big arugula fan, but she took arugula and then put parmesan cheese on it and mixed lemon juice and a little bit of olive oil.
It's a great salad.
So good.
So she did that, made okra, which she's growing now too, and did pork butt.
Okra fried or just steamed?
I'll do both.
I love them both.
But she also had, she bought yellow sweet potatoes, which I didn't know there was such a thing.
You ever had those?
Yeah.
What is happening right now in my world?
Are they white or yellow?
I don't know.
They were just not orange.
They weren't orange.
I cut it open and was like,
what's up?
There's like Japanese.
There's purple ones.
Did you know there's purple?
I wouldn't eat that.
I don't think it was bad.
But I never was cooked for in my life.
Yeah, that's true.
So I've never had someone actually cooked meals for me.
Like growing up as a kid, we didn't, everything was a TV dinner or something.
Sometimes we would get lunch at school, free lunch, and we'd take some home and have it for dinner too.
But nobody ever cooked for us.
So I have someone that actually.
cooks meals, maybe isn't just so much about the food.
It's about the time and the caring that goes into making the meal.
The whole experience.
Yeah, because as a kid, I never got cooked for.
And then when I was a single guy, I didn't learn to cook and I just ordered out or
did bologna sandwich or something, you know?
Yeah, I know.
It's a whole new life for your guy over here.
I know, six hours on a, yeah.
I'm like trying to remember the last time I spent more than an hour on food.
That's like a hobby, though.
Yeah, she's way more into it than I am.
Yeah.
All right.
Tell me how to feel closer to my significant other.
Well, first of all, you need to just listen, which sounds really simple, but I have tips on how you should actually listen.
Okay.
First of all, you need to put your phone away if your partner is sharing something with you.
Yeah, okay.
We try to do that dinner.
Right, but like say she comes to you not at dinner and you've got your phone out.
But here's the thing.
I look, I research on my phone while she's telling me so I can look up answers.
Like, here's what you can do.
This is coming from the experts that say you need to.
listen to your partner.
Ways you can signal that you care are putting your phone down.
Nice.
Then offering your undivided attention, which would also mean you're not Googling what she's
talking about.
Okay.
Making eye contact.
And then following up on what you hear.
Okay.
Easy.
Done.
Consider it done.
I'm going to be a great listener now.
Well, because some people would say, oh, yeah, yeah.
I listened.
I was in the same room and she was talking.
You know, like, I heard everything you said.
But really, you didn't show that you cared.
You know what I do with my phone?
I keep it face down all the time
So I'm not
Distracted
Distracted by it lighting up
And then I read these stories that are like
If your man keeps the phone face down
He's probably cheating on you
And I'm like that's not true at all
I keep my phone
Like that
So when I'm talking to her
I'm
She knows that's why you do that
You don't need to worry about that
The heck's wrong with people
Write these articles
Yeah
Trying to get us good guys in trouble
Just tell her in advance
I know you see my phone down and you maybe sell that article on Twitter, but I have it down because I respect you.
Say that.
I don't bring it up because I don't even want her to think anything about it.
You don't think she hasn't seen the articles too?
I don't know what she sees.
Mostly she listens to some podcast called The Morning Toast or something.
Anybody know that podcast?
I don't know, but apparently she doesn't listen to this show.
She listens to the Morning Toast every day.
What does that do for her?
No idea.
Does it give her up to date?
No, no, but she's always like, I shouldn't even say it on the air because people should listen to that, not us.
But I should, she's like, they said this this morning.
I think it's a bunch of girls talking about tampons and stuff.
I don't know.
Is that what you think if we talk about?
Yeah.
Important stuff like tampons.
Apparently it's, uh, take a bite out of morning toast.
Oh, it's after we get off the air.
But it's a podcast.
With no job and, wait, with a girl with no job and Jackie O.
Oh, it says, good morning millennials.
Anyway.
Is she a millennial or Jen?
She's a millennial.
I was,
looking this up what millennials are.
Like the specific definition is
1980 to 90, whatever I know
where the ending date is.
Do we know?
So yes.
It says, here we go.
Millennials were born 1980 to 1994.
They're currently between 26 and 40 years old.
I don't like being a millennial.
I was holding on tight to that Gen X.
But the official deal here is
1988 and 1994.
That's us.
You're a millennial.
Morgan.
Are you on the edge of it?
Yeah, I'm 93, so yeah, backside of it.
So then what's after millennials?
Z?
Is that what it is?
Wait, so what I, so what's Y?
Oh, Y are millennials.
Okay, so it's X, Gen Y, and millennials are the same thing.
So, so confusing.
Then Gen Z.
So we're also Gen Y?
Yes.
Okay, I never refer to myself as that.
I never refer to myself as that.
I never refer to myself in a millennial.
I do.
I was always like I'm at the tail end of Gen X.
No, I like being a millennial.
All right.
That's the deal. I don't know those girls from morning toast, but I bet they do a good show because
do you ever hear it? No, I just looked it up. I haven't ever heard of it.
All right. But I'm about to jig it out.
During the show. We're done. That's it. We'll see you tomorrow. Bye, everybody.
