The Get to Know You Question of the Day. It doesn't matter what it is. It can be a book, a newspaper, it can be a tweet. It's the best thing you've read in the last few years. Now, not everybody's a book reader, and I definitely go through stages where I read a lot more than I don't, but I would go first to give you guys a time to think. This was a long book, but I and my family deals with a lot of addiction, had a lot of

death from addiction, trying to understand addiction. I read this book by Gabor Matei, and it's called In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts. And what he did, he worked at a free clinic in Canada, though, as a doctor, just working with addicts. And one of those where you just, like, feel differently about life a little bit after you read it. Like, this is a nonfiction. It's a big, heavy read. I didn't read it for fun.

It wasn't like, I can't wait to read about more addiction. But that was probably the best thing I've read in the last few years, called in the realm of hungry ghosts. but therapist actually recommended it to me. And I've also started to read a little bit of fiction, which I never did. You read for fun. And Chang Gang All Stars was awesome. The Daily Stoics awesome, too.

But that's mine, the best thing I've read. Eddie? I don't really read. So the last thing I did read was Green Lights by Matthew McConaughey. That was four years ago. Just made the cutoff. Congratulations. I barely made it.

And I loved it because I love Matthew McConae. I think he's a great, like, just character of a person. And in this book, it just tells the start of how he grew up, how he made it into Hollywood, the ups and downs in Hollywood, and then just these crazy, like, trips he would go on. Was this book proven to be a little bit hyperbolic? I think there were certain stories that were probably exaggerated. Yeah, embellished made up a little bit. Yes, but he says they're all true. But, you know, who knows?

Because some of them are, like, wild, right? Do wild. Like, I'll give you one. I won't tell you exactly what happens. But he goes into a village. in Africa. And he gets invited by these villagers. And they're like, to prove your stay, you've got to fight the strongest man in the village.

What? And he fights the strongest dude. Okay, do you believe that sort? No. No. You can't prove it's not true. Well, I believe maybe he fought him. But what McConnor-Hay says happened, I'm like, oh, come on.

But you do believe that happened where they said you need to fight the guy in a village? I don't even know if he went to a village and, like, stayed the- It doesn't matter to you if it's true? Nope. Okay, guys. But here's a story. Now, him and that guy from that village, they go on vacations together. Oh, he did?

He says that. I forgot that far. And I'm like, come on, man. I guess I wanted to be true because it's a memoir. Yeah, but I never read it because I had people saying it's not all the way true. So I was like, eh. Because I felt pray once did James Frey, the million little secrets. A million little pieces.

And I read it. I was like, you know, I've ever believe it? Because he was a guy who was an addict and had to, you know, part of it was like him going to the dentist, but it wouldn't take drugs. It turned out was all made it. I was like, I'm never reading a memoir that I'm not like. That anybody is not going. That's not true. That's amazing he can make that up.

That's a pretty good writer, though. That's what writers do. Yeah, good imaginations. But it may have all been true. So what, yeah, okay. Your deal. Yeah, mine's in the therapy space too, and its body keeps the score. I listen to it on audio.

I also have the actual book, but it's very scientific. So that's why it's helpful for me to listen to it sometimes and even read along. but just very helpful in understanding any stress or trauma in our brains from just understanding what people have gone through and then your own stress and trauma. And for my adopted kids, it was helpful for me to understand what's going on with their brain and that what it can do to our bodies, the traumatic stress. And if we don't deal with it, that it'll start, they'll have different ailments. I don't know.

It's just very fascinating, the research that was done. And I highly recommend it. Have you read it more than once? I've listened to it and have the book. Yeah, I mean, and I go back to it at different times because it was recommended to me by one of my kids therapists. And then just a lot that I was experienced at the time because he does different studies with veterans and alcoholics and other people that experienced trauma. But then once they got the right therapies and they were able to rewire their brain, like they could see again or walk again like crazy things of how your body keeps the score. I read the book.

I got one eye don't work. Oh, I thought you've had read it. Have you not? You should. You would like it. No, I was too busy reading chain gang all stories. Lunchbox? Open, the autobiography of Andre Agassi.

Is he good? It's really good. Is he going to any villages and fight anybody? No, he doesn't go to any village, but he does, I mean, he tells you all about his... Party and days? Party and days and about how he hated tennis and his dad, like, was just a... Oh, wow. Rough dude, like, out there practicing every day, hours.

Dad, I don't want to play anymore. Get out there to hit ball. Get out there. It's the bad. But yeah, that was a pretty good book. Really? It's good. Is it open because, like, he just, he was an open book in it?

You guys open? Yeah, you guys. Or a tennis open, and probably open book. Probably a play on all those words. Yeah, yeah. All right, that's what's up. That's, uh, get to know you. Thank you guys for being here.

Let's open up the mailbag. You send an email and we read it all the air. It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Yeah. Hello, Bobby Bones. I've been working long hours of my job for the past few months. I got to meet a crucial deadline. My wife and kids are feeling neglected.

They keep mentioning how much they miss me. I feel guilty, but I also know this project is very important. How can I make them understand that I'm working long hours for them? Any tips on managing this delicate situation? Signed, hardworking husband. Yes, there are tips to this. I can give you tips to this. As someone who sometimes allows themselves to be swallowed by work.

Sometimes I need to be reminded. Sounds like you've been reminded. Sometimes I need to be reminded, hey, I haven't seen you in like a few days. what's up? And I'm like, oh, you're right. Sorry. Like we've seen each other, but I'm just always focused on something else. Oh, I'm sorry.

And then what I try to do is be extremely deliberate about going, I know I've not been the best. This is why. But I don't even say make it up to you. Where I would like to do my job as a partner or a dad is these days here. This is what I have planned. This is the time I'm going to dedicate to you. and this has been very hard for all of us. I'm very sorry about that.

I feel like I need to do this because we've got to keep the bills paid, but I can guarantee you after this date, in these specific times that I'm going to commit to you, I'm going to make sure that you don't feel this way anymore. I don't know that there's an apology needed. I think that sets a bad precedent unless you've promised something and gone back on it. But it's I now realize I did this. This is why I'm doing it because you're not sorry.

Maybe you're sorry for how they feel and neglected. That sucks. but in order to make you not feel this way and help you and help me, I have dedicated this time and this space to this. And I think that helps a lot. And it's also a conversation that you understand now that they feel neglected by you. But I only say this from personal experience. I've had this happen many times where I will go, I'll turn my computer on, I don't know, 3.30.

And I'll be working on something or riding or in the back studio. And I'll see my wife in passing a few times. And she's like, man, we haven't done anything in three days. Like we haven't spent any time together. And I'm like, really? Because I'm just busy. Yeah. I'm not thinking about things I haven't done. I'm like, I got to get to the next thing.

So, but then I go, okay, boom, sorry. I now realize that and understand that. Here's what we're going to do. Here's how I'm going to try to make this different and make you feel different. That's what I'd say, do. And for kids, usually what I say is like, oh, your Nintendo, you like that? You know how you pay for that? For daddy goes to work.

And Daddy makes money to pay for your Nintendo. Ding ding. That's how that works. I'm not there yet. I felt that. Yeah, man. You got to speak in their language. You don't have that problem.

You spend an hour a day with each of your kids. Yeah, but some days, some days I'm not there. They want an hour and a half. Right. You give them an inch. They want a yard. I'm just joking. You got it.

Be deliberate about how you're going to also invest in the relationship as well. Just communicate that and say, oh, thanks for letting me know. but this is why I'm doing it because you like that Nintendo? Oh no, no, I don't want to do that. Oh, no, no, no, no, yeah. All right, close it up. We got your email and we read it on the air.

Now it's about to close. Bobby's mailbag. Yeah. It's now time for Fun Fact Friday. Fun Fact Friday. Let's go around the room. Bring up a fun fact that Sparks conversation, Amy. Polo Bear fur is actually clear,

and their skin is jet black. we see white because it's reflecting light and it's an illusion. Like that's what we see, but there's nothing white about them. What? That can't be true. So if they were like in the forest, they would be green? So their fur is basically a green screen. They're white only because of the snow?

It says the polar bear's fur is translucent. Their skin is black and it only appears white because it reflects visible light. That's crazy, man. Dang, my brain can't even comprehend what's happening. That's crazy. Because every polar bear is white to me. Okay, lunchbox This one goes out to Amy

And anyone else in her shoes Good news, women who get divorced They get remarried after an average of 3.1 years Men take a little bit longer Getting married after about 3.3 years Okay, why do you think it takes men longer? Because they're not ready to jump back in the saddle, you know what I mean? They're ready to play the field a little bit.

Women are like, they're nervous that like It's over. Oh my God, I've got to find the first thing that comes along, boom. I bet in my situation, my ex-husband gets married first. Well, not all. Not all. Just the average.

I'm just trying to think about white what the boom is with women. Like women, they, usually when you get divorced, you're a little bit older. You're not young. Okay. And so you're like, oh, man, my clock is like, my good looks, like are fading. Like, I don't know what I'm going to do. Got to latch on to something quick. Latch on.

Yeah. Before they get so ugly. So ugly that they're just going to be single the rest of their lives. Got it. Age is beautiful. Next week, Amy, I'll bring a fun fact that's, Not going to be so fun for you, though. But that was fun for her?

That was fun because she's going to get married on 2.1 years. Hey, can't wait. So next week you have one way less fun than that. Yes. Why does he already have, why? Could you say it now? Nope, nope. This guy plans ahead.

You got to tune in next week. All right, Eddie, go ahead. Did you know that they used to answer the phone by saying, Ahoy, oy. That, when Alex, when Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone, he suggested when you pick up the phone, you say, Ahoy, hoi, ho.

And then. Then Thomas Edison came later and said, dude, that's stupid. Let's just say hello. So then he started, hello. Hello? Hello? Hello? How do you answer your cell phone if I call and you know who it is?

If it's me calling, Amy, you go. Hey. Okay, Eddie. Yo. What if it's an unknown number, how do you answer it? Hello? Hello? I'm going to start doing that.

That's how you should do it. If it's unknown, unknown, unknown, and I don't know, I just pick. up and listen. I don't say anything. Mine is Marvin Gay's real last name was, do you want to know? It's not gay? Why did you pick gay?

Interesting. It is gay, but it was gay without the E at the end. It spelled G-A-Y-E, Marvin Gay, but it's original which is G-A-Y. And so people were questioning, do you like men or women? So we put the E on there so people wouldn't just go like, Marvin's gay.

That's crazy. Wow, I didn't know that. Why can it be Marvin's happy? Well, because his last name was gay. I know, but gay means happy. That's true. You got me on that once. Yeah.

It did, especially back in the day. Back when they said, oh, oh, hoi, oh, oh, oh, Toronto and Montreal are both farther south than Seattle. Oh, yeah. Those two Canadian cities are both farther south than Seattle. I saw one, too, that said, like, if you drive south in some part of Michigan or something, you end up in Canada. Ramundo, you want to know us? I mean, I'm guessing it's over there by Detroit. Well, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's for sure.

But that's where you're from. Yeah, because Canada is kind of below Michigan in a way. It's right there. I mean, they touch each other. That's weird. It was just not a straight line. Right. So part of Canada goes under Michigan.

You're telling me every border isn't a straight exact line? No, isn't that crazy? Right. No. It's time for the good news. With Amy. Tell me something good. So Sergeant Eva Robbie, she is in the National Guard and was serving a tour in Kosovo

around the time that her son. is graduating from college. And this is all very recently, but she had to plan ahead. She had to get approval to get leave and then fly. So she reached out to the University, University of West Georgia, and said, hey, here's my plan. I want to surprise my son when he's walking across the stage. And so the fact that everybody went above and beyond to make this happen, and she was able to surprise her son, Malik, heard when he graduated.

It's super special. And here's a club. That one word taking him completely by surprise. Kosovo. Kosovo. That's what called my attention. Like I was listening to what he was saying, but then I heard Coasta vote, and I knew that's where she was deployed. And so I'm like, hold on.

It's a hard job. A hundred percent, that's the percentage of times that I watch these videos of soldiers coming home and surprising. I'm like, like, 100%. It's 100%. It happens every time. And also, I'd be terrible keeping that secret if I were the person coming back. I would just want to, like, spill it. You're so excited, yeah.

Yeah, I would just want to be like, I'm coming home. And I'd forget to turn off my Find Me app on Apple. That's a great story. That is what it's all about. That was tell me something good. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care which I'm saying.

Congratulations. I was reading the story where Kevin Costner spent like millions of his own dollars in this movie project he's doing. Like millions and millions of his own dollars. He probably could have raised it, but he did it himself. Kevin Costner stars and directs in Horizon an American saga. Yeah, he's like the Western guy, right? Oh, now he is for sure. Kevin Costner, Santa Miller,

Sam Worthington, that's the Western guy. It's crazy because he used to be the baseball guy, right? Like, he was Bull Durham and, like, feel the dreams. Now he's a Western dude. He apparently turned his home into a post-production facility, invested a ton of his own money. You ever hear the stories about when they show one of these at a film festival and everybody stands up and claps for like minutes and minutes and minutes?

Yes, I'm like, that would be annoying. Oh, you wouldn't be the clapper? What? For minutes and minutes. That would be awesome. No, no, no. did they have to stand up for 20 minutes and just clap for something? Oh, like I've never in my whole life, I've done that.

So listen to even three minutes. Have you ever just stood and just cheered hard for three minutes straight? No, no. 30 seconds is long. That's long. But this is one of those stories. Kevin Costner was seen tearing up at Cannes during a seven-minute standing ovation where the crowd was cheering. Kevin, seven minutes that people would not stop clapping.

I would feel awkward, but here's a clip of that. This is all seven minutes. Listen closely. They did up for seven minutes. Yeah, I didn't think about him. That's very awkward for him. It's not as intense as I thought it would be for seven minutes. Seems like they're kind of like...

Well, no, they went up a minute because they thought it was going to end, but then they just kind of get back to this normal... If I come out on stage, if I'm doing a stand-up show, and it's like, I play the intro music, and it's like, bye, and I walk out. And if it's more than like 10 seconds, I start to feel weird, and it's my show. Right. You start dancing. Yeah, I'm like, okay.

So it must be really good. During a speech, Kastner, thank the audience and promised three more installments of the Horizon franchise. Oh, wow. So Horizon and American Saga, Chapter 1's in theaters June 28th, Chapter 2, August 16th, rated R under 17, not admitted without parent. But to get me to stand up for one minute, it must be really good. And you know people that are his peers. You know, it's like in Nashville, if an artist is performing, people go watch them.

But there's a lot of judgment. Like, let's see what they did here. For them to stand up that long, it must be really good. Horizon and American Saga in theaters June 28th. There you go. So chapter one and then chapter two shortly after. It's not like you have to wait forever. So I guess it's done.

Way different than the old. Avatar. Avatar. Oh, yeah. Here's Amy's pile of stories. A new poll asked 5,000 Americans. Have you ever wanted to be the president of the United States? Ask me.

Absolutely. You do? What? Oh, dude. You're in the minority. I'm going to try to win like four terms. I mean, honestly, out of all of us, you'd probably be the one that could do it. You've got to be nuts to even want it.

and you're nuts. Yeah, because normal people wouldn't want that. It sounds like a terrible job. I would love it. Yes. Okay. Amy, want to be president? No.

Eddie? Negative. Morgan? Nah. Lunchbox? All the power in the world would be pretty awesome. But the stress. It wouldn't be able to nap as much.

I'm out. But hold on. Hold on. Don't you have like a cabinet? Can't you just let them do all the work and then give me whatever to sign? I think many presidents have done that. Right. You can be a lousy president.

You can be a, well, Or you can just put great people around you, but not me. I don't even want a cabinet. You do everything. I'm everything. I'm full service, baby. I'd be president. Yeah.

What else? Okay. So have you heard of the sandwich method? In what? Getting dressed. Because I know Bobby has the hamburger method when it comes to dating long distance because he's like, you have to have. Got have the meat. You have the bond to start.

There's got to be that meat. But yes, the sandwich method and getting dressed. What would I think that is? That would be weird to dress yourself in the middle first. I guess I put underwear. What is the middle? It's viral on TikTok. Go ahead.

Tell me about it. The sandwich method is it makes it easy way for you to pick out what you're going to wear because you just match things in between. Like you would match your shirt to your shoes and then your pants would be a different color in between. So that's the meat part. Or if you want to do like. I kind of dress sandwich. It's not a Memorial Day yet so I have white pants on.

Except that I found out it was Labor Day. Oh. And I can keep one white pants. Yes, you can. But if you wanted to wear a white hat and white jeans, then you would do a different color. top and the top is like your meat. So it's just a way they call it sandwich dressing. Like you go to your closet and you go boom, boom, boom,

pick out your outfit. Sometimes though when I get a sandwich, I order the lettuce instead of the bread. So how would you do that? Well, then your lettuce is your bun. That's just like, yeah. Classic. So I thought this was funny. We have all seen Dumb and Dumber here, right?

Oh, yeah. Okay, that movie's turning 30 years old this year, by the way. That don't make you feel old. But Jeff Daniels was talking about how the toilet scene in Dumb and Dumber, he thought about not doing it. because he thought it could end his career. The scene of the movie. The scene.

Okay, got it. Oh, I remember that scene. Yeah, it's a difficult scene. He's on the toilet. He's on the toilet. Yeah. Yeah, so before Dumb and Dumber, he had done more serious movies, like turns of it, terms of endearment and speed. And he really wanted to do a movie with Jim Carrey.

So he wanted to be a part of this. But, like, his agent and other people were like, hey, yeah, I really think you need to consider this scene. Like, it could tank you. He is a great actor because I believe I'm serious and I believe I'm funny. He's a great actor. Yeah. He could be the dumbest person on Duma Dumber. He did that show, too, where he was a news anchor on, like, HBO.

Yeah. Newsroom. He's believable there. Oh, yeah. I mean, I think normally he's not, like, a funny humor guy. So that's what's so cool about that, that, like, he played such a funny character. I've only one time not done something because I thought it could have ruined my career. And at this point, am I career?

I cannot share that yet. But I have also done something that people said would ruin your career, and it did not. When I did Dancing with the Stars, they were like, don't do it. Only losers do that show. And I was like, wow, I'm kind of a loser. I called my friend Charlemagne the God, who is on in New York. And I said, hey, they want me to do Dancing with Stars. And he was like, okay, a lot of people do that show when they already had their moment.

But there's been a few, he's like Michael Strahan and Wendy Williams that did it on their way up. Nobody does it at their peak. Most do it. Okay, I'd like to be back in the line. But there are a few. Even Kim Kardashian did it. Think about that. She did Dancing with Stars.

She did? Wow. He was like, there are a few people that use it to go up. instead of use it to be back. And so I was like, all right, I'm going to do it. And next thing you know, got that trophy. Well, and then you went. You went all the way, which is sort of in line with the advice Jim Carrey gave Jeff

Daniels. She brings it back. She brings it back to the story. Yeah, he said, look, Jeff, you can do this. You're going to be great. You just have to go all in. Like, you have to go all the way with it. And it's going to be a scene that outlives us all.

Like, people are going to be talking about it. I don't love the scene, but it is funny. Yeah, it is funny. Okay. I'm Amy, that's my file. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With lunchbox.

Tell me something good. Miss Bronson is an employee at Homebridge Health Care Agency and she has to get to work every day. Well, her car hadn't been working so she's been taking Uber, taking lift, walking to work. Another day, she's getting out of an Uber when she gets to work. And the CEO happens to see her getting out of an Uber. It's like, hey, what's going on? Why are you Uber into work? She's like, oh, man, car broke down, doesn't work anymore.

Got to get a new one. Can't afford it. So CEO said, man, I got to do something. Went up in her office. Started doing some online shopping. Bought her an SUV. Wow. That's the sound of online shopping.

That's that easy. Wow. And all of a sudden, that's awesome. They bought her. Wow. Change your life. Absolutely. Change her life.

Yeah, and then Ms. Bronson quit. No, stop. I'm just showing. She quit the next day. Sold the car. No, no, but I mean, think about that. She makes decisions every single day, every single day based on the fact that she doesn't have a car. And now a lot of those decisions are able to be made differently or not at all because that person changed her life.

Man, how cool is it the CEO who sees you getting out of an Uber so they buy you a car? Don't start coming to working at Uber. I am announcing here. I am just saying. Maybe someone should be here. I'm standing out front when I riding in an Uber. A great story. That is what it's all about. That was tell me something good.

A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what I'm saying. Yep, that's me, Clifford Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football,

In 2023, former bachelor star Clayton Eckerd found himself at the center of a paternity scandal. The family court hearings that followed revealed glaring inconsistencies in her story. This began a years-long court battle to prove the truth. You doctored this particular test twice, Ms. Sond's, correct? I doctored the test ones. It took an army of internet detectives to crack the case. I wanted people to be able to see what their tax dollars were being used for. Sunlight's the greatest disinfected. They would

uncover a disturbing pattern. Two more men who'd been through the same thing. Gregalespian and Michael Marantini. My mind was blown. I'm Stephanie Young. This is Love Trap. Laura, Scottsdale Police.

Good morning studio.

Here with my nine-year-old daughter, Kylie. Say hi. Hi. We have a morning corny for you. Might even be a little bit of a morning corny after dart. So take heed. Kylie, what's your job? joke. What happened when you're running

into a dinosaur that knows crotty? What? You get Jurassic kicked. Oh, that's a good one. You want to give a shout out to one talk? Yeah, I love you. That's cute. I didn't even miss a shoutout because I was laughing so hard I love it. That was pretty good. That's a good one. But it's, the joke is

Jurassic, Jurassic. Yes. And I like how the mom's like, this might be morning, corny after dark. Here's my kid. You read it. I don't think we have to bleep that one. Scuba? Yeah, it's fine. It's Jurassic. Jurassic. Look at Jurassic. Is that what she said?

Yeah. Well, I think she... Yes, it was. Okay. All right, now let's go to Amy with the morning corny. The morning corny. What did the orange tell her daughter when she was hanging out with new friends? Would the orange tell her daughter when she was hanging out with new friends?

Juice be yourself. Juice. That was the morning. Corning, Corny. You have an accent? Just be yourself. I like the drag. Yeah, can we do it?

Yeah, yeah. That was a good one there. So selfish or sweet? That's the question we're going to ask. Lunchbox, what's the story? So I saw this video on Twitter. I think People magazine posted. This guy's getting married.

And his brother surprises him at the wedding. He's been deployed and he just shows up in uniform. And they're, oh my goodness. Look who's here. And I watched the video And usually I'm like, oh, these are cool. These reunions, like at a high school basketball game or whatever. Cool.

So this one, I thought selfish. Absolutely selfish of this dude. He absolutely stole the wedding day. He is all the talk. It's not talking about how great the bride look, how happy the couple look. It was selfish. It made it about him. The video says family in shock when soldier's son surprises them at his brother's wedding.

And like his brother, his parents were like, oh my God. Now, it is very much so about, at least this video is about the brother coming back. So, sure. It's selfish. It's tricky. It's tricky than I thought it would be once I started to think about. Like, was the bride in on it? No, no one knew?

It looks like nobody was in on it. Oh, man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, you should do it like a, you know. Like the day before. Or rehearsal dinner. There you go. I hate that.

I hate that I'm not thinking it's. I know because he's coming from war. Yeah. He meant, well. Or she's being deployed. Well, whatever. Maybe not. Okay, here's some money.

Here you go. Play this. Oh, it's so good to see you. I'm so glad you're able to make it, man. Oh, Sarah. Oh, that's sweet. Yeah, but where are they? Because they're taking pictures before the wedding.

They're all dressed in their tenses. I'm still going to go, I'm still, it's tough. I'm still going to go sweet. But I would say that probably the bride, probably the groom, are a little bit like, man, we would have loved to have had this feeling. Not on the day of the wedding, the day before. I'm still going to go sweet, but just, it is, there can be nuance. Mm-hmm.

There is. Hearing the clip, I'm with you, sweet. A lot of the people that are doing that, though, were like the mom and stuff, not the groom. And not the bride either. The groom goes, oh, you made it. I think he said, I'm so glad you're here, man. He did. Yeah, yeah.

Right, you're glad your brother's there, but it's like. The day before you'd have been really glad to. It stole the thunder. It's not about the wedding anymore. It's about the surprise of the brother. Okay, but when you first sold it, I was picturing. them like at the ceremony and the bride's walking down the aisle and then

no they're just taking pictures for the wedding like they're in their tucks and I'm about to do it yeah yeah I thought they're about to be like kiss the hold on here he is that's what I was picturing too in his uniform I will say it's that's not the method that I would have done I'm still going to go with sweet I'm just not going to go that it's selfish for somebody from the military to come home I'm not going to come into that one but man the night before like the rehearsal dinner

would have probably been better yeah because imagine you're the bride that's not your brother your groomed. Okay, but what if that was the, sometimes you can't choose the day you arrive from a deployment. Like you have to get leave, you have to get permission. But if you're doing this surprise thing, you get permission and you can pick the day, obviously. Is that right? Or you can do it maybe earlier in the day or you can do it.

You go in and wear your normal clothes and watch the wedding. And then at the rehearsal dinner, you're like, guess who's, or not the rehearsal, but the reception. Guess who's here? I just think there's a, no, I don't know, but I just think there's. Yeah. I think this is a better way for the bride's sake. I'm going to say sweet because it could have been worse. Like the way I envisioned it like Amy was saying.

They weren't going to walk in while they're going down the aisle. I don't know. Nobody ever has done that history of time. He stopped the violin. Stop playing the wedding song. I'm here. Never. Like the kids walking across the stage.

But that's about a lot of people. That's about 500 people or 300 people. Not two. I still think it's sweet. I'm going to go sweet. I would have preferred it at the rehearsal. Because the family would have got the same moment. and hopefully nobody felt like their moment was taken from them.

Lunchbox, do you think selfish? Oh, I think absolutely selfish. But then if you voice that you feel like your mom was taking, you feel selfish. Right, exactly. The bride just has to swallow her disappointment and be like, man, my wedding day got overshadowed and it was all about the brother. It wasn't about me.

You know a lot of people going to be talking about the brother being there too. You know that, right? Everybody, you know that, right? I mean, people magazine, they didn't show a picture of the bride. They showed a picture of the brother. It is a good video. I like the video, that's terrible. I don't even want to, if we post this, everybody's going to be like, it's sweet.

It is sweet. But I don't know. Our listeners sometimes they surprise me. I will post it on our Facebook page. It's just, it's not selfish, but could you have done it better as how I'd like to phrase it? Selfish or sweet. All right, go follow us on Facebook. Listener message me on Instagram and said, hey, what's the show?

What is there never have I ever? Something that they've never done that most other people have done. And so I listed mine and we'll go around the room. but I've never drank alcohol I've never watched the Lion King I've never been punched in the face although I hate saying that one because I feel like someone wants to break that like someone would be like I'll show him

yeah we can fix that really easy yeah I've never been to an adult club a dance never a day yeah a place no I never been to one of those we don't need to change that it's good I mean I don't know what we're waiting for but we're not waiting we're running out of time that's what I'm saying

So those would be a few of mine. Like I've never been to an adult establishment like that. Never been in a physical like punch in the face fight. No Lion King, no drugs, no alcohol. Dang, that's a lot. I mean, just think a night at the dance club, a drink. Well, dance club. I've been to a club.

No, no, I'm talking that kind of club. Right, right. You could do all that one night. And then you get to fight at the club because someone's looking at your girl. Yeah, I get punched in the face. I mean, that would be three birds and one stone. But I don't know. I'm not looking for those birds.

All while you're watching Lion King on. your phone. Right, right. We can't have them all out. Or someone could be dressed up as... Amy, never have you ever. Well, this came up with some friends the other day because that was the only one that never broken anything. Like they had all broken a, like as a kid, broken an arm, broken a leg, broken something. I've never broken any kind of bone whatsoever. Good for you.

Anybody, I've broken a rib and a couple fingers, high school football stuff, but nothing great, nothing big, but I've broken a couple things. You guys, broke anything? Never broken anything. Oh, cool. No single bone. I've broken my right arm twice, so the age of four, I have my brother pushed me off the slide in the backyard and I broke it. And then the day after I got the cast off, I broke it again. So my whole.

Yeah. So because my mom told the doctor, hey, it's not healed. And they're like, yeah, it is. And they took the cast off. I broke it again. And so my whole four-year-old, I have a cast on my arm. And that's how my artwork is all left-handed squirrels. I did a lot of tornadoes.

And then I broke my left arm in seventh grade, summer before seventh grade. But you had bad arms, bro. It feels like you just had bad arms. I was playing on a playskap slipped. and then I've broken toes and... Oh, man. But you two are break free. Yeah, break free.

Yeah, nothing. Eddie, never have you ever what? You know, not including Mexico. I've never really left the country. And I grew up seven miles north of Mexico, so that was normal. So you lived basically in Mexico. But I've never really, I've never gone to Canada. And people are like, oh, you've got to London.

England's beautiful. Never left the country, really. I don't even have a passport. That's crazy. Everyone has a passport. I've never gotten a passport. Not that everybody has one. But I think in our,

industry, a lot of people travel a lot, so it feels a lot more normal than you think. But when I say like, oh, I got to get a passport, every like, you don't have a passport? But I think that's just kind of where you live and the people you're around. Because we live in a place where there's a lot of traveling happening. So I think most folks, not to diminishers, I think most folks haven't left the country.

I mean, I never even left the state of Arkansas until I was almost an adult. Yeah. And then never the country until I was like, I need to go see something. But it's still a good one. Mexico's cool, but something you could fix. Yeah, we can go places. No, I'm not saying like, You could just go get the passport to be prepared.

You should go get a passport. But that takes a long time. Yeah, it does. That takes like 10 minutes. No, no, no, no. Get it. It's a process. Who cares?

Go do it and you'll not even think about it and you'll get it in like three weeks. I do want to pass it or wait something. Never have you ever lunchbox? Had a cup of coffee. Never tasted it. Never tried it. Never been tempted to. I just never understood why people drink it.

A burning hot cup of coffee when it's 100 degrees outside. I don't understand. I never had coffee until like five years ago. and I hate it. I hate the taste of it. To me, I don't like hot things in general drinking them. Drink it iced. Not hot chocolate.

I already hate the taste. And then I also am like, I don't like drinking hot stuff. I don't like drinking hot chocolate or hot apple cider. Hot tea, nothing? I don't like drinking hot stuff because you can't just drink it freely. You got to be like, you have to be precious with it. It's a burn your mouth. But yeah, that's a big one.

Never have I ever had coffee. Morgan? Never have I ever gotten a tattoo. I'm tattooless and no plan on getting one. No tattoo. No tattoo. Yeah. But you know what I forget about Morgan?

and it kind of falls in that tattoo range is Morgan has her belly button pierced. I do have a belly button pierce still. And sometimes I see a year out of that where you just have to take it out. It's a good question. And what's the age out on that? You don't have to, by the way, I think you can do whatever you want. You can get it pierced at 90. But according to you guys, is there an age where the person should take their belly button piercing out?

Well, definitely when they get pregnant. Yeah, I think you have to. I mean, that's gross. Oh, but not medical for you? Not medical. It's gross. Like, I don't want to see it protruding in it, like shooting. But do you want to see the belly, though?

No, no, no, I would cover that. Okay, okay, okay. Eddie, your thoughts? Yeah, when you can't really wear a bathing suit anymore. You can always wear a bathing suit? Nah, but when you go from bikini to full body, you know what I mean? Yeah, you should try it out. You mean a one piece?

That's it. Yeah, but then nobody else has seen it anyway, so why does it matter? Because that's why you had it, right? So people can see it in the bikini, like, you do have it so people will look at that spot. Correct. That's why you put any jewelry on anything. I thought it when I was 16 years because I thought everybody else had it.

That's why I wear ankle brace. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what I'm saying. Yep, that's me, Cliver Taylor the 4th.

Well, it was for me. So I went in and I was like, that's what I was playing. So that's why I was in my head when you came in. Oh, yeah. And then you played that. What a great pee song. Well, I just like it.

Yeah, yeah. I mean, it's a good bathroom song. Yeah. But we play that so we don't hear the girls pee. That's the thing. That's what I'm saying. They're very immature. Yes.

Yeah. It doesn't like they. Not for me. I'm not immature. I just like the song. No. But from the top of your head, top five, you got to play them, though,

You got a whole new album out. Whole new album. So a lot of songs on this one. 15. Yeah, that's a lot. Yeah. Do you like them all? Most of them.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah. I liked them all when I recorded them and then, you know, no, I like most of them. Yeah. It's been a while. Yeah, it has been. Yeah, 2020 is my last, like, project, I guess.

Yeah, there's been songs sprinkled along the way. You got the new song Adder to the list, and do you want to play that, or would you rather us play that? It's up to you, buddy. I mean, I'll play it. I'll sing it. You want to see? You guys?

You guys want to hear him sing, or we don't? You want to send him on his way. It's up to you guys. Sing. I can just leave, too, if you want me to. Let me say this as he's getting ready here. Travis Denning is here. He's got a brand new album called Roads that Go nowhere.

Almost all the songs Travis wrote, but Travis is also a big songwriter. devil don't know on morgan wallins new album so you know good thing about really good songwriters is they appreciate other really good songwriters and so Travis did that with this record a little bit too so add her to the list one of the songs that you did not write yeah it was actually the last song I picked for the entire project we had I knew I wanted 15 songs and we had 11 cut and we had three picked and so I was kind of looking for that 15th one and my producers both of them co-wrote this song and they played it for me and I just I look at it love the hook. I love the story and I was wrote

to him by the second line. Again, I'd like to commend you because you wrote almost this entire record and the fact that you love this song so much, you're like, I'm going to record it even though I didn't write it. That's hard to do. Yeah. As a songwriter, well, I've been on the other side of that table for essentially since I moved Nashville trying to get people to believe in a song that they didn't write, you know, as a songwriter. And so I always vowed that, you know, if I had a record deal,

the best song would win. It didn't matter if I wrote it. Well, here we go. This is Adder to the list from Travis Denny. Got a new album out today. call Rhodes that Go Nowhere. All right, Travis. Oh, I'm sorry. We can't post the live performance on the podcast to the podcast. On the Bobby Bones Show now.

Travis Denning. Got a new album out today, Roads That Go Nowhere. Before we get back to the album, stuff, a question for you, there's an urban legend about you that you showed up to town with $10,000, and if you spent all of it, you'd go home. Or get a job, yeah. So what is that story? Tell me the real version. I just had, when I moved here, I had like three thoughts in my eyes.

head. One was that I wanted to be 21. How old are you when you moved here? I was 21 in three weeks. I moved here like January 16th. I saved up money over about two years playing shows and playing gigs in Georgia. And I just wanted to come here and if I penny pinched, I can make rent and feed myself a little bit and just focus that first year on writing songs and not having to get a second job, which of course, I mean, there's nothing wrong with that. I just wanted to be totally focused. And my goal was to get a publishing deal within that first year in the middle of November of 2014. I signed a publishing deal.

So I fortunately didn't have to go get a job. How much did you have left in your account? Ooh, maybe two grand, maybe. Would you have taken feed picks if someone said, for pictures of your feet? I would, I'd do that right now, to be honest with you. I mean, hey, mortgage rates are still high. You know, so you got to do what you got to do. The new album, Roads to Go Nowhere.

When you write a sad song like that, Rhodes to go nowhere, or a song that's vulnerable, does it have to be the right people to be vulnerable with? You ever like, man, I'm really feeling I was in love, and they're like, if you idiot, and you're like, I can't write that with you. Like, do you have to pick the right people

to be vulnerable with? You know, I don't think so. In fact, I think some of the best vulnerable moments in Saw Rodney can come with people you don't know. And in fact, this song was a little bit of both. One of the writers, James McNaylor, A close friend of mine. I'm known for a long time. And so I felt super comfortable us talking about our stories and our roads that got us nowhere and the ones that got us here. And then Ben Foster,

who was another writer on it, I think that was the first time me and him and written together. May have been the second time. But he was... If you start crying in a writing room and the dude doesn't even know, you're like, bro. That'd be weird. I didn't cry. But we had a good time reminiscing and stuff. I got a little emotional when I heard the demo for the first time, but I was by myself. Did you sing the demo? I did. And you got emotional because the song reminded you of what you were actually writing about. Like you separated yourself from it enough to listen to what you were saying? Yeah, I know. I just, it took me back and it was kind of a, there were some stuff going on like in my life, not bad, but just things changing with like people I worked with and things like that.

It was just kind of a little bit of a pinnacle time. I was about to get married. Like, and I just was, I was thinking about all the good stuff. I was thinking about some of the, the ditches in the, the potholes and stuff, you know. Mortgage rates. Yeah, I traded a 2.9 for a 7-1. That wasn't. Roads go nowhere, golly. Yeah, I don't think Ramsey would like that one. But, you know, hey, you got to do what you got to do.

But, no, we, yeah, it just, I don't know. It took me back to being a kid and just dreaming of hopefully making a living, playing music. And when I get there, you'll be the first tonight. Thank you. I'm really looking forward to that call. I was at a restaurant. I was having, my wife and I were having dinner with a couple of her friends from

back home somewhere and Travis walks in with his wife and Travis comes up and he like puts his hands on my shoulder like what up we have like what are buddy whatever I never get uh I didn't get up having my food in front of me and it's fans I held on for just five minutes on the shoulders while he ate everything so he walks on whatever and they were like who was that I was like I said I have no idea that's the greatest I really said that and then like a few minutes later I was like I'm just kidding that's my friend's but I did say that because it was very aggressive and I thought it was funny to go I have no I've no I thought you guys knew that was no idea yeah I thought you guys I have no idea.

This is the I'm a little teapot challenge I just came up with. Cool. Can you solo anything? About to find out, I guess. So if I were to sing I'm a little teapot and then point at you, could you solo that in the spot, the gap?

He's scared. What key are you in? My own. All right, cool. Universal skeleton key is what I call it. B for Bobby. Usually I'm in D. D?

Usually. Is that right? That's usually where I sing it, you know? It doesn't matter. Let's just see what happens. Cool. I'm a little teapot short and stout Here is my handle

Here is my spout When I get all steam me Get me out Dip me over and pour me out Try standing everybody Good right there You were! You learned D flat Yeah very flat D very flat

Is that kind of a, you know, hey, do the show, put you on a song? What happened? Man, this was a song I wrote eight years ago, actually. Yeah. It was first song I'd written with Jesse Alexander and Chase McGill. You know what? You know what? That was?

I'm sorry to interrupt you. Look at this photograph. Look at this. Every time I do it makes me love. This guy's amazing. How did our eyes get so red? Shout out to Chad, Kruger. And what's the song, John is it?

That's when he hit that. It just immediately took it out. Yeah, right there. That's beautiful. So anyway, the Hardy song. Yeah, that's on there. That's Southern Rock. Just really a song that's kind of an ode to how I grew up

and the way I was raised and where I come from. And we recorded it. I knew it was a special song for me, just how much I loved it. but I felt like it could go to the next level with somebody else. And I knew Hardy was the perfect guy. I shot it to him. And a day later, he texted me, which is par for the course. And he said, I'm in, let's do it.

And, man, he just, he crushed it. I mean, took it to another stratosphere. And, yeah, I think we're going to be playing it on the tour. So it would be really fun. That's cool, man. Well, congratulations. You guys can go to Hardy's Quit Tour. And Travis is support for Hardy.

Hardy's on one of the tracks. The new record is called Roads that go. nowhere and that little song we just sang was from Nickelback. Yeah. And that one's not on the record. That was not. Unfortunately. What about I'm a little teapot?

Not too. That's on the deluxe. The Target exclusive. Yeah. Which by the way, you can play that song because that is public domain. You can do a little teapot all day, every day. I'm going to cut a bluegrass version of it. Travis, good to see you, buddy.

You guys follow Travis. Travis Ardenning on Instagram, the album. This is your debut album? Why does they say that? that. I don't really know. I'm kind of with you. I call it my first full-length album. It's my first, like, 15-song

thing, but my first single came out like six and a half years ago, so I don't know if it counts. debut album's out. debut, full-length, first full-length, big debut album. There is. Travis Denny, everybody. Bobby Bone Show. Story up the day. This story comes us from Manhattan, Kansas.

A man decided, hey, I want to drive the liquor store, gets something to drink, and he pulls into the liquor store parking lot, goes to put in the park, accidentally hits the gas, boom! Right into the liquor store. And it was the mayor, and he was drunk. Oh, the mayor of the town. Oh. The drunk part, I could have, I mean, I could have got there.

I didn't expect the mayor to be coming. Yeah, but mayor of certain towns, I don't know. My uncle was the mayor of Dilley, Texas for like 12 years. And, I mean, he was awesome and all, but I don't think he was like that hard. You know? Like, maybe I thought this story wouldn't get out if it was the mayor. He's like, hey. Oh, like, cover it up.

Yeah, like, yeah, you got relationships. So that's unfortunate, yeah. Yeah, and he's going to resign. You know, not sure we need that yet. Let's look at his past history. All right, thank you. I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day.

Amy, what do you have over there? Well, I was listening to Mel Robbins podcast, and she had this doctor on, and he was talking about, like, simple science-backed things that make our lives better. And one of the things that he mentioned was wearing the color red. I'm a big red guy.

And so obviously my ears perked up and I'm like, oh, Bobby loves red. He wears red. And red equals success. Red equals confidence. What if that's the thing that some people just, I was going to say you guys, but some things just have missed out on,

they don't wear enough red. It's that simple. Dang. Yeah, it says there's scientific proof that wearing the color red can in fact breed success and oftentimes when two sports teams are playing, the team that's wearing red will ultimately dominate.

But it says at time. I think that's a little misleading. However, I would like for people to know that's not why I wear red. I'm pretty bad colorblind and dark colors. Red has always been the color I can see the most of the shades. And Arkansas was red and my high school was red. So all those things combined, it was just a red life. It's a red, red life for me.

And maybe I just have been able to, you know, leap to some of that success. all because of red? Because I've just happened to Dang. The sports team things kind of down. This is proof though. Athletes wearing red uniforms win competitions more often than opponents dressed in other colors.

But we don't know that for a fact that every And also it's 50-50 anyway. So in the end it's going to be near 50-50 red versus not red or white. But why red? I don't know. This part I didn't like write down the part about the Olympics where there was something like they'll draw

like who gets the red or the blue uniform. America. And they always win. And it's like, you want to get the red one. But red is the color of fire and blood. It's identified with danger, energy, strength, determination, love, passion, and desire. So also if you're trying to date wear red. Sounds a little cuckoo for me, but I like red, so I'll take that. And men love when women wear red nail polish.

We do? I guess. Y'all are, I don't even know subconsciously. You're drawn to it because it's so. Maybe that's why you guys are all drawn to me. I want red all that. Maybe. They're so passionate about me.

I don't even know. The fire. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, we're done. Go put on some red or something. Be careful. People will be passionate.

Remember the Save By the Bell episode where they would play the over the speaker, the subliminal messages, and everybody fell in love with Zach. Yeah, that was awesome. And then maybe, you remember that, Eddie? No, I don't remember that one. You're a leave-at-the-beaver guy, huh? Older, older TV. Yeah.

All right, thank you. Have a great day. Have a great weekend. We'll see you next week. Goodbye, everybody. The Bobby Bowie Show. A win is a win. A win is a win.
