It's going to be on NBC Tuesday night, which is the 26th. It's called Snake in the Grass. But then it goes over to USA Network on August 1st.

Somebody's going to win money. you can win 25,000 bucks or more. This is unbelievable. It's unbelievable. Scova told me because I'm very excited about the show and USA Network is like we want to invest in this show because we believe in it.

And this show is all about just spotting the liar. We all think we can hang out with somebody or a group people and be like, well, I can tell them they're lying. That's what the show is. And there's other stuff involved. They're flying across stuff and clues. But it's really just boils down to can you tell when somebody's lying.

And so that's the goal as you're watching. But we're going to do that on this show and it's the most, it's just a lot of money. And so I'm really excited they're going to get to us. I was like, hey, maybe we can get 500 bucks from them. And Scoob was like, oh no, we got a lot. They gave us a lot more than that. Wow. So we're going to do it up right.

like a bunch of random people. Yes, we need to randomly do a drawing and then we'll call them and bring them on the air and play the game. Multiple people to play the game. It's like a game we play all the time on the show. You can have $25,000. Okay, so there's that. I want to say that to start the show. Everybody's feeling good? Yeah. Lunchbox started shaking. I mean, I thought I was about to win $25,000. Why would I play

a game for that much money for you? Like, you get paid to be here. Yeah, that's the game you get to play. Come in and can you do a good job on the air? I mean, sometimes you like to put up $10, $20? I thought you were up. Oh my gosh. I thought, wow, this is like hitting the lottery. But a listener will be able to win. I'm just going to say this. If you come on and want, it's multiple levels, you come on day one.

Can I say day one? What's going to happen? Yes, yeah, you can say it. So like next week, we'll bring someone on. Let's say it's Morgan. Morgan's on. All right, Morgan, we're going to do two truths and a lie. Can you identify the lie?

And then we play the game. Like Morgan, I say, Morgan, my shirt is black. Truth. Well, no, hold on. My hat. What color happens? Black. It's black too?

You can't see it? No, I forgot what I wore. My hat is black. My, I'm wearing my watch on my left wrist. Now, if she gets this right, she wins the money for the first day. So which one's the lie? The wallet, or the watch. Yes, because I'm left handed.

I wear my watch on my right wrist. Now, if you get it right, day one, you win $5,000. Oh, my goodness. That's it. You just won $5,000. What? No, no, no, it's an example. It's an example.

But Scooby, that's right, right? That's exactly right. Everybody who plays the four during that week come back and then they're competing for big money. Oh, wow. Okay. So that's all. It's the easiest, most money game we've ever played. That being said, we're good, everybody?

Oh yeah. I'm excited. We could even play around. Okay. No, stop. Stop. You're not getting any money. You get paid.

Okay. Yeah, you're good. These people of losing get paid. But not to do this. Oh. Okay. We have an interview we're about to do here. Let me introduce you guys.

We're about to talk to Katie Offerman. about Katie Offerman. She's from New Bromble's Texas. She grew up playing the accordion and the fiddle and the mandolin and the piano and the violin. She grew up on a horse farm. Her dad homeschooled her in the barn. She played polka music because she had to play these instruments and they were like, hey, let's polka tour. She's like, okay. She just got married in May and she met her husband through a mutual friend. Here is her song, Don't Do It in Texas. Just don't do it in Texas. It is now time to talk to Katie Offerman. show now. Katie Offerman. So I did a podcast with Katie and it was so interesting. I said, hey, come by the radio show too. Katie, good to see you again?

Good to see. Thanks for having me. Your story is so interesting. You know, I want to start with you were homeschooled on your ranch in a barn. Yeah. So what is it typical school day like? Oh, man. Well, we used to get up like at 4 a.m.

My dad was training horses but he also was like trying to run marathons. And so we'd get at 4 a.m. I was a chubby little kid And so like he'd want to get up and go run down our mile long ranch road And that would that piss me off Was it like PE? Was he like this in school? Probably he thought it'd like put and still good character in me

It actually just made me mad And so we'd do that as a family like my mom, my dad and me Go run out on the road, come back You know classic Texas homeschooler We'd have our Bible study And then uh then we go out to the barn and get to business Like at 7 a.m. So I was done by noon.

And then my dad would take me out on the ranch and teach me how to start a fire with a magnifying glass. Things that kids should know. I've used that a lot in my life. Usually taught by other kids. Right. But you say you had no friends. What about the goats? What about the hort?

Did you have, do you name them? Yeah, I had so many animal friends. Yeah. I mean, like I had Susie, my cow. Coco was my mean pony that was gifted to me because she bucked another kid off. You got a second hand pony. Right. I did.

I did. But we had everything. We had dogs. Guinea is not guinea pigs. but Gaines the bird. Turkeys, chickens, you know, sometimes we'd come home and they'd be slaughter in the backyard from the raccoons or the whatever it gets in.

I can't remember. Mountain lions, whatever. Bobcats. I'm getting sadder. The more animals you mentioned that kill them, I'm getting sadder. She's like, you know, just foxes. I want to play a clip of Don't Do It in Texas. This is from Katie Offerman.

Just don't do it in Texas. So how instrumental is Texas in your country music? Texas is my foundation, you know. I'm also just, I feel like, one of those proud Texans, as any Texan is. But even just like growing up on the ranch or playing triple fiddles in a Western swing band across Texas, you know, like I've put in a lot of hours and miles in Texas. And that has shaped me to who I am and the music too. Like, you know, Bob Will's or, you know, like even Johnny Gimble. I used to listen to music and love hearing, like, what was that fiddle solo or what was that, you know?

And, yeah, people like Johnny Gimble, like fiddle player, like, who my age even knows who he is. Can you hear something and play it back on fiddle just by ear? Yeah, it depends on, like, how complicated it is. But if you just heard, thumb-da-do-do-da-da-da-da-da-do. Yeah, I mean, yeah, just like that. Yeah, I mean, for the most part, I mean, you know, I don't know. I'm not even going to text you. Did you bring your fiddle?

I'm going to start singing you melodies. You're so, like, just all these instruments, like the accordion, that big thing that's a piano and then the buttons on the side with the strap. The fact that you played the accordion and then you played it in a polka band and you toured at 12 or 30. Like my mind is blown because that seems like there's a lot going on in that accordion. There's a lot going on. It's like pushing in and buttons and piano. It's like all that, right? Yeah, I think that's why it's in the closet right now because it's just, you know.

You know, there's only so many hours in the day. That thing, I mean, man, if you stop playing that thing, you get rusty really fast. Is it super heavy? It's heavy. I mean, I put it on like a couple weeks ago. I have the same accordion I had when I was 10 whenever I started. And even when I put it on now, I'm like, my God, you know, I'm exhausted. So I've been looking at really cheap, small accordions on Amazon.

Same. Yeah, right. Except I don't know to play one. We can do dueling accordions. You're playing the opera September 2nd. I am. It's your debut. I'm really excited.

Who's going to come watch? Oh man Well my dad keeps calling telling me that some of his friends are driving up from Texas I'm like who are these people He's like you remember Gene

And whatever I'm like I don't actually Leroy Leroy is coming I heard So Leroy if you're listening I'm excited you're coming But my family You know Colby's mom's coming

My husband My mother-in-law She's coming And they're splitting time My father-in-law is going with her other child to the Iowa game because they're big football fans.

That's kind of my main flaw is I'm not a sports person. So I know you are. Yeah, I'm big sports person. Right. As most people are. Yeah, I'm big sports person. But it's exciting. You're playing the opera the first time ever.

I'm really excited. The opera is kind of, to me, the thing that makes it such a big deal is like, I remember my grandparents aren't alive anymore, but I remember like being on their porch and listening to records and talking about life and everything. And it was like, man, the opera was something that they got. they were like, wow, the chance to be able to play that one day. They wouldn't even have a clue what a publishing deal was or a record deal. Like, huh? You know? But I remember my parents driving me up when I was little and my grandparents

driving me up when I was little and we went and saw like Alison Krause at the Opry. And it's just like, to me, it's the best. It's like going to church. It was my grandmother too that got me so interested and now invested because I work with the opera and perform at the opera. Yeah. Same thing. I wouldn't, I mean, she wouldn't know what any of this stuff is that I do.

But if I were to have told her I could play the opera, she would be like, that's the coolest thing I've ever heard in my life. Yeah. The first time I went up, and I will do comedy there, and I don't cover jokes. Jokes is something you don't cover. That's not really a thing. But I did, I covered my grandmother's favorite joke from Jerry Clower, my first time up as my final joke. Because I was just like, she would think this is the coolest thing ever. So now I'm going to cover a joke that she loved.

And so it's super special. I'm excited for you. Thank you. I know they're going to be watching. from above, but, you know, it's just, it's going to be a really special thing. And I can't wait. Now I'm like, am I going to get to play there again? You know, it's easy to start thinking about the next thing. But I'm just excited, honestly. Her name is Katie Offerman. You guys can follow her at Katie Offerman with the C.

And don't be surprised. I went to her Instagram and you can watch her sing in real live. I mean, she's seeing with, not in a studio. But then she grabs the fiddle and she kills the fiddle and you're just like, what in the world's happening? So quite the accomplished. accomplished musician, but really great singer. I know you said it was late until you found your voice, like your literal voice, but wow, really great. Thank you. I appreciate that.

You know, I feel like, like I was saying earlier, it's like God gifted me with about 10 notes. So I think he knew that I knew what to do with that because there's a lot of people out there because, man, I think all the time, I'm like, and I'll admit it, I am, you'll find a thousand girls that can sing just, you know, all around me. That's not going to be me. But I just hope that whatever I do and whatever I say, I hope somebody believes. you know, and I hope that it is meaningful.

And because that's all I can do. All I can do is stand up there and play my songs and hope that somebody believes me, you know. We're going to play Happy Land Trailer Park. Let's do it. You wrote this with Joe Clemens and Rodney Klosson. Yes. It's a pretty good room.

So give me the gist of this song so when I play it, people understand what they're hearing. Yeah. It says in this song, everybody's got a different definition of the good stuff. And so, you know, yeah, It says Happy Land Trailer Park. And I have since Googled Happy Land Trailer Park and it does exist. So I'm thinking it could be a road trip in my near future.

But it's like, man, it doesn't have to be a trailer park. Whatever your happy place is, if that's sitting in your couch, a cup of coffee, you know, if it's with somebody you love, if it isn't, I have a sense of adventure. So for me, it's like, where can I go that I haven't been? Whatever that thing or that place or that person is in your life, it's like, I hope you find it. because life is short. And we wrote this in the middle of COVID and everybody was kind of down.

It's just like, man, go find that thing that like burns a fire inside of you. You know? And heck, maybe it will be happy Lynn trailer park when I drive there in Canada. And there is one in Canada and Oklahoma. So. I choose the Oklahoma one.

Right, right. It'd be easier to get to them. I'm going to go to both. I'll report back. But no, this has been so fun. And also, y'all were the first people. Like, I never heard myself on the radio before. And this song, y'all took a chance on it played.

And that was really, really special. So I'm glad that people got to hear this song.

It's something we call Bobby's mailbag. Yeah. Hello. Bobby. I need some input on a disagreement between my husband and I. My husband is the best man in his friend's wedding this fall, and his best man he's responsible for playing to the bachelor party. Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, no.

My husband started a plan night of golfing and dinner, but then the groom asked, when are we going to the gentleman's club? Uh-oh. My husband informed him, I don't plan on going to a gentleman's club, but the groom is insisting. I do not agree with my husband going. He insists he has to go if that's what his friend wants, because it's his bachelor's. bachelor party, but I've included my husband. Based on my religious beliefs, going to this type of club is the equivalent of cheating. I also feel that the tradition for a bachelor party is meant to let the groom have one last crazy night, but my husband already tied the knot years ago, so he doesn't

need a crazy night. My husband feels I'm way overreacting. Since most of you on the shore, Married, what are your thoughts on you, your spouse, going to a gentleman's club? Am I overreacting to this, or should I let him go and push down my feelings about? doubted, or should my husband respect my feelings to tell his friends that he will decline to participate in this part of the night? Please help, and the input is greatly appreciated from a disputing wife. Here's the thing. In your home, you have your value system, and that should rank above everything else.

Now, your husband can plan all of it. He could actually pass it down and go, you know, for me, my morals do not allow me to go to this, or if his do, and he's like, hey, my wife can kill me. I can't take part in this part of it. So I'm going to pass it over to you and you have to plan this. So I'm going to go off and I'm going to dinner and I'm not going to go to that part. There is nothing wrong with that. I'll say first of all, I've never been to a gentleman's club ever.

I don't. That's not an equivalent to cheating to me. But I've never been. If he ain't doing the cheating, I don't think that's cheating. It's not for me. It's, but I don't think it's cheating. But if in your house, that's the rule, then that's the rule. I don't think he has to do it.

I don't. I don't think he has to go. Because if the groom's like, all right, I'm getting married, we all got to go kill somebody. Well, you're the groom. Yeah, it's your party. Right. You've always wanted. And there's not like a line that eventually, like, well, no.

The line is where it's set in your house. So I would say if this is something you're strongly against, communicate that. Hopefully he is receptive to that. And then he doesn't go, you are not out of your mind to say that and believe that. So everybody on the show is going to have a different opinion about this. I can already tell. Lunchbox is set up in his chair so high. He's just waiting to tell. He's like shot out of a rocket. So I say you are fine to say this and to enforce this. And I hope that if you feel that that's what you need to do, you do it.

My opinion. Lunchbox. Quit being the nagging wife. I mean, geez, he's going to a club where some women dance. He sits in a chair, has some beers with his friends. What's wrong with that? It's just like watching the movie Magic Mike. Oh my gosh. Are you cheating if you watch Magic Mike? Well, it's a bit different. One, because you don't see, ding dong, ding dong. And then two, it's on the screen. It's not humans. Who cares if it's humans?

He's there for his guys. He's here with the boys hanging out. He doesn't have to, you know, go up and get lap dances. Just because you're going, doesn't mean you're going to get lap dances and go up and give dollar bills at the stage. You can sit in your chair, drink beers. Nothing wrong with it. Quit being the nagging wife. And if you want to see how fun it is, go with him before the bachelor party and go to the club with him.

That's your advice to her who is against moral-related. How morally, I get out of here. I'm not. It ain't cheating either. That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. I agree. And most of my friends have been. Almost all my friends have been.

It's great. And I agree. It isn't something that they're like, it's like a huge deal to a dude. It's like to my dude friends have been, it's like, yeah, it's fun. But it's not like a big thing where they're like, oh, I finally just can't wait. It's just dumb and fun. Right. So I don't think guys are looking at it as like, this is my night.

Just go crazy. and oh, it's not. It's not the big deal to a guy. That being said, it's such a big deal to you for him not to go. That ranks above what he wants to do. But lunchbox, you've spoken. Thank you.

Yeah, don't let him be the nerd at the bachelor party. My wife said I can't go. I got to stay in the hotel. He obviously has no problem with it because he's like, I need to go. You know, so he does not have those same religious and moral beliefs that I feel like. Amy. Well, I mean, I think that he does want to have a healthy relationship with his wife.

And sometimes that's hearing. what the other person's needs are, and she should not push down these thoughts at all. No, if this is how you feel, you express them, and if he chooses to go knowing how you feel, then we have bigger issues, because he should want to respect you just as you would respect him if the table's returned.

Eddie? I don't know why. Say what you really feel. I don't know why bachelors have to go to strip plus. I know it's a dumb. It's a dumb tradition. Because guys for me, I've been married for a long time, and it's always a thing.

You're going to a bachelor party? Are you going to a gentleman's club? And I'm just like, it's always, I would go. I would go. But since my wife has a problem with it, I'm always the one that says, hey, let's just, who wants to go? Who doesn't want to go? I'll stay. All right, the three of us will stay.

The rest of you guys go. I've been in the situation two times in my life. And one time I went, I got in big trouble. The next time, hey, I'll admit, got in big trouble. The next time, I said, guys, who's staying with me? Three of us. Cool. The rest of you guys have fun.

It's just not that big of a deal to it, dude. That's my point, meaning it's just dumb for a guy, but if it's so important for him not to go to you, I don't think he should go. Right. I agree with what you did and you stayed home the second time, probably because you learned. They learned. He got grounded. I've been there. Sometimes you've got to get grounded in order to learn your lesson, you know what I mean?

So stay strong, disputing wife. I think he should stay home and not go. But you think he's a nerd. He's a nerd if he doesn't go. He's going to be laughed at all the guys in back. Oh, my gosh. Okay, we'd really be laughed up by dudes you see every once in a while or have your wife want to kill you every day that you see all the time. Yeah.

Yeah. I mean, that's the answer. Or tell your wife to relax a little bit. Eddie, when you laugh at? That never works. The words relax a little bit to my wife. Never. It actually makes things worse. Never make her relax. I say things to help her relax. Like, hey, what time to wrap your shoulders? Let me to rub your feet. Hey, you want to go tomorrow. You have a picnic? You know what helps her not relax? Relax. Like a little bit. That never works. All right. Thank you for the email disputing wife. You're all good. That is the mailbag. Close it up. It on your air

That separate tab when you go to Google and you click images, they created that. After the 2000 Grammys, Jennifer Lopez wore a dress. So many people were searching it. They were like, we got to create an images page.

That green one? The green Versace. And that's how we got Google Images. You're smiling really weird and creepy. You guys don't think that's... I do. I think it's interesting. That is so interesting that Jennifer Lopez, I mean, she brings this music, movies,

and Google Images. That's how we can Google Hotties in swimsuits. There's a lot. All right, Eddie, you have a fun fact. Go. The first speeding ticket ever issued was in 1896, and he was going eight miles per hour. He got a speeding ticket for going eight?

Like on a horse? No, it was in a car. But the speed limit was two, buddy. How do you go two in a car? I don't know, man. How do you go two walking? No acceleration, I guess. Wow, so what was the ticket?

Did it say? money, means. They said at that time, it was a record. Like, whoa, this is the fastest anyone has gone. But there's no, like, what they charged. No, no, no. Morgan, your fun fact. So before alarm clocks existed, people used nails fixed onto candles to wake up.

So they knew how to calculate the candle burning time. It would put the nail at the right time they wanted to wake up. And as soon as the candle melted, the nail would fall. Make a noise. Wake the person up. What? It's like ice, right? It puts on the ice.

It melts. and then it falls. Oh, I'm up. That's crazy. Yeah. There were also people called knockers that you would hire and they would come with sticks and they were like the neighborhood wake in a pack on the window to wake people up. Wow. But the problem is what if the knocker fell asleep. Who did the knocker hire? Who did your therapist go to for therapy? Yeah. So, yeah, wow. That's pretty cool. It was like to literally the, like you hear the alarm. It's a nail hitting the ground. Yep.

That's a good one. Mine's back in the day too. So George Washington was really tall for back in the day. He was in the point five percent. of tall people. He was six foot two. The average male was 5-5. Wow. Back in that time. Wow, Ray'd be a giant. Ray would be, well, normal. I don't know about a giant, but he'd be normal. What are you, Ray? 5'6, but shrinking. But if you were 6-2, you were like a 6-8 or 6-9 guy now.

So, and George Washington was massive at the time. But you know, George Washington, he was like a crazy military guy, right? The general. Yeah, we just think of him as being the guy with the puffy hair. And, of course, he was a general, but, like, he was like, really popular and like really aggressive fighting. He was a, you know, big fighter won a lot of a lot of battles. But I thought being 6-2

was, I knew I missed my time. I know, I'm 6-1. They asked me to the doctor how tall I was the other day. And I said, I don't know, why don't we measure? And I knew I had on some really tall shoes. Six-one? Yeah, tall-shoes. I said what I said. I'll leave it there. Fun Fat Friday. It's time for the good news.

With Amy. Yeah, I'll make something good. There's a little girl. Her name is Avery, and right now she's nine years old, but over the past few years, she has operated her own lemonade stand. And some kids that do that, they like to pocket the cash for themselves, but not Avery. She has been donating all of the money to local animal shelters. And before you think, I'm talking like 30 bucks, 50 bucks, 100 bucks, she just raised $1,040 for an animal shelter just last week in Pennsylvania. That's really great. You know, you almost got to be a kid within lemonade stand these days.

I don't think of lunchboxes were just selling lemonade on the side of the road. We should try that. I also think maybe somebody would shut him down for not having a permit or... Well, you know, there's some places shut kids down for not having a permit, which is so sad. Yeah. I mean, I get it. But the cool part, too, is that Avery wants to be a veterinarian when she grows up. So that's why she's so passionate about selling the lemonade to help out the animals.

Avery, that's awesome. I don't know if you're listening, but if you are, that's really cool. and I hope you keep doing that. And I'd love to see lunchbox try a lemonade stand. Me too. Just randomly. All right, that's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good.

Nice job. A voicemail from Andy in New York. I was just wondering if Ray's song of the summer is out yet. We're pretty well into the summer at this point. Just curious if there's any news on that one yet. Thanks, guys. Love the show. Appreciate that.

Ray told us months ago he knew a secret song of the summer that was coming out. It was a collab, and the whole music industry was going to be like bopping along. I don't know the song either. Where is it? So it is out, but I checked in our system. We have a thing called Music Point. It just hasn't been sent to radio yet for whatever reason. I don't know what they're waiting for.

But I did DM. I probably won't get a response. But the artists that are involved in it, I DM'd them. And I was like, hey, when is radio going to get to play this song? But if it's out, you can say the song. But I mean, maybe it's a secret single that they haven't told anybody about and they wanted them. A secret single, but it's like everybody just wants their songs played regardless, single or not. But you know how they say impacting radio.

But it doesn't matter. They will never say, but don't play it. But I don't know if they're ready. for the impact. Okay, here we go. Who did you DM? Okay. They're not ready for the impact. Ray also has an envelope in there and he has somebody in country music that has secretly got a divorce or is getting a divorce and he sealed it. Correct. When he knew it. In March. It was that long ago. And Scooba signed it so it's official. But we still don't know who it is and they haven't announced it yet. I haven't seen it on any websites. Do you still think they're getting

divorced or are divorced? Yeah, no. The person I told me it was in total confidence. I said, I can't believe nobody's talking about it. Major star. Oh, yeah. Huge. And someone we're not going to expect. You could expect it, but I mean, they've been in the studio and stuff. Everything seems hunky-dory.

Like they've been here a lot? No, they've been here. They've been here since the divorce? Yeah. Since the divorce. So, but we just don't know they're divorced. Correct. Why do you say it like that?

I mean, all that's correct. Yeah. And so it's not anyone that I've texted you privately. No. Like on rumors that I've heard. And now I'm texting Ray all like the secret stuff I hear. Now he gets all my information. too because I'm just trying to figure out who it is.

And he's like, nope. Don't do that. So there's probably nothing in there, and he's just getting all the inside. No, there's something. Okay, well, those two things we don't know the answer to yet. Hopefully soon, though.

That's what you've said. You've said it since March. Probably secret because it's private. All right. Here's Amy's pile of stories. A surgeon is in trouble after removing a belly button without consent during surgery.

A woman was getting an umbilical hernia repair and something went wrong, so he had to remove the belly button. Well, the problem is he failed to even ever tell her about it post-stop, and she was wrapped up and bandages for a week. Finally, she was able to remove them and she looked down, and she had no belly button. What's a big deal?

He didn't tell her. It's a belly button. I have a third of a belly button from a surgery when I was a kid. I've never once cried and thought, oh, I wish you had a belly button. It's not a big deal. But he never disclosed, hey, so this could. go wrong and I might have to remove your belly button.

Do I have your consent? And then also he never told her and she was surprised. That I can understand. But how is this a new story? It didn't a big deal. Well, he's in trouble. I support this doctor. Really? Like the board of surgeons or health or something. They're investigating him.

We have to vote on this every year as the Board of Doctors. Oh yeah, you're a doctor now. He messed up, but it just sounds like a big story for a belly button does nothing. But it's a belly button. Like it'd be weird if I look down to my belly button was fun. He didn't take it by accident. He took it because it needed to be taken in the surgery and then just forgot to write a little note. Oopsie. Mm-hmm. And so now... Right. He should have that. Okay. Well, okay. Oopsie. Find him 50 bucks. $50. Let them get back to work. Belly button, I don't think that's that big a deal. All right, what else?

Authorities are reminding people to watch out for online cat scams. A recent case involved the loss of $24,000 worth of gift cards to buy a sphinx cat that was listed online. You would have felt You follow up with this. A fink cat. That's the hairless one. And according to the feds, cases like these are not uncommon. So stay alert. Well, you paid how much for a cat that never came?

I just did the deposit. How much was that? Okay, so that's my point. And then we start talking about it on the air and saying, we're going to out the person and all of a sudden, it gets a refund. Yeah. And they kept saying, oh, we can't find the cat.

They were in Louisiana. Hey, and what's that shady? Like someone selling cats from Louisiana. Yeah. I'm kidding. It means nothing. All right, what else? You may know Dylan Scott from his song, My Girl. Yeah, that's my girl in the passenger seat.

Well, it turns out he grew up 30 minutes away from Tim McGraw in Louisiana, but they have never met. And he said he's been in Nashville for 11 years now, just waiting and waiting for the day that he crosses paths with Tim McRall. And I just got me curious, like, for you, Bobby, is there anybody in town that you haven't met or interviewed yet, that you're just waiting to cross paths with or interview? No, I'd say more like avoiding.

Like that's, that's happening. That's funny. I do that a lot. Yeah. No, I think we're pretty lucky on the show that we've built this monster of, we're in hundreds of cities and we get to kind of pick, right? That's cool. But there are people that I just am avoiding.

So you're not waiting? I'm not waiting. I'm like the opposite of waiting. So, yeah, they'll meet. But also Dylan Scott's like, man, he's right down the road, never got to play with him in the yard. He's like 20 years older than you, man. You can't play in the cul-de-sac with Tim McGraw. That's true.

I mean, that's my file. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With lunchbox. Stay at home there's something good. Kim Durkey bought an Apple Watch because you know she wants to track her fitness. Oh, how many steps did I get? Oh, how did that run?

What's my heart rate? Well, in May, she goes to sleep. middle of the night, Apple Watch wakes her up and says her heart numbers are off. It's her, I don't even know how to say these words, artreel fibrillation. Why would you try? And why would you take that story? No, no, just let me get going. I'm with you. I like the story. And she's annoyed. It wakes her up in the middle night.

She's like, man, this stupid watch goes back to sleep. Next night, it wakes her up again. What did it say? Yeah. Her numbers were off her artrial fibrillation. I wouldn't know how to say that either. It is off. It's off. I'd say our heart's messed up. Her numbers are off.

And she goes, if this watch does it again, I'm going to throw it in the trash. Oh. And she goes to sleep. Third night in a row, wakes her up. She goes, okay, I'm going to go to the emergency room and I'm going to see what's going on. There was a tumor growing blocking her heart. Wow. And the watch alerted it to her and she had surgery and there was a four centimeter and it was growing rapidly and what she would have died.

You aren't that off unless it's called an atrial fibrillation. Possibly. Yeah. Whatever. What I say? Artrial. But I don't. Yeah, it doesn't matter.

But you weren't that off. But it's spelled A-T. Yeah, we're good on that. A-trial. A-trial. A-trial, maybe. But my father-in-law has this and it's a fib. That's an easy way to say it so that you don't have to try to say the whole thing.

Just a-fib. Why didn't they write that in the story? Yeah, why didn't they write that in the story? They're trying to write the big words. But yes. I wouldn't have gone to the emergency room, though. I mean, I might have called me like, hey, can I get in next week? This is saying this.

I wouldn't have gone. to go to the emergency room. I mean, how crazy is it that the third night she's trying like, okay, I'm going to go to the ER, and if they tell me nothing's wrong, I'm going to throw this watch away, and her blood supply of the heart was being cut off and she was going to die. Yeah, that's awesome. Wow, you're really dramatic there. And so she had surgery

and the tumor's gone. Boom. Boom. All right, there you go. Great story. You know what my Apple Watch does? Nothing. I don't know I do anything with it. Well, then you're good. You're healthy. I don't know that it does that. It doesn't do anything for me, except tell time and dies. That's all it is.
