and how Memorial Day has affected their life.
life and those who served and really it's about those who gave their life for us and that's the

Memorial Day, but I still hope you're able to go. And if you're off, enjoy the family.
Like, appreciate the freedom that was given to us. You know what I mean? Yeah. Like appreciate it.
Really? Some people are like, how can you be happy on Memorial Day? You know, it's a day we honor those who gave their life.
That's the ultimate sacrifice, but they gave that sacrifice so we could actually have freedom.
Yeah, let's not waste. Enjoy that freedom with your family or whomever you like. So, okay, I'll get off the, I get off my soapbox. I just read Facebook before the show.
Jump down.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's go.
Monday's show starts now.
Recognizing people, doing cool things.
It's ICU.
A Pennsylvania fisherman was out on a lake when he saw something strange in the water.
And he was like, what is that?
It was struggling in the water.
And he pulls up to it slowly with a trolley motor.
And he saw a bear cub struggling, like a baby bear.
And its nose was out of the water, but it was struggling to stay up.
So he got his net, and he was able to put the bear into his boat.
Oh, wow.
Right.
Not knowing if mom bear is somewhere around the corner,
he just saw a struggling baby bear.
He took it to the bank, put it on the bank,
pull the boat back, and then watched the mom come out of the woods.
Oh.
And come back for him.
Like, he saved the bear's life.
That's awesome.
And then he saw the mom come out to...
Good, yeah, because you don't want the mom to have been like,
oh, well, I don't know where baby bear is.
Like a Brad and Mac.
Yeah.
On his boat saving bears.
That's what I'm talking about.
I see you.
The Bobby Bone Show.
It's producer Raymond. Happy Memorial Day. Banks and other government offices will be closed.
In other news, music legend Greg Allman passed away over the weekend. He was 69 years old.
And finally, in weather news, there was hail the size of softballs in Missouri. Severe weather, also in Oklahoma and lots of rain in Illinois.
That same bad weather is headed east. Watch out Boston and New York.
Amy was here on Friday show and she wanted to cut all of her hair off because she was like, I'm having a midlife.
crisis.
Relax.
You don't need to cut all your hair off.
So I said, hey, go find something
Midlife crisis-y to do over the weekend.
And she did, and she went test drove a Corvette.
Porsche.
Oh, a Porsche.
Oh, yeah.
As you can see,
my fancy cars get confused.
Oh. Well, yeah, I decided
to go do that. Of course, I'm not going to be buying
one, but it felt awesome.
Did you just let you get in one of those?
I had to give him my driver's license,
which good thing I got my driver's license
recently because I wouldn't be able to test
drive but yeah no i mean i was an interested customer
me and my friend went and it was pretty amazing i sent you a picture
did you get it i just saw you in a big fancy car i didn't know what i didn't even know what she
was doing can anyone test drive a match i'm at a portion i want to i've never i don't think i've
ever been in a Porsche well i well all you have to do is go to the Porsche dealership no but i mean
they just let you drop away at one no listen you kind of have to walk in and act like you know
like you're really interested once i saw the price tag i was like oh my gosh
What did I think of it?
I thought it was pretty amazing.
I felt free, wild, awesome, younger.
Did you drive it off without the car dealer person?
No, no.
I had the dude with me, the salesperson, and my friend was in the back.
You can't just go take it on your own.
I've tested off cars before.
Like my Pontiac's on fire, when I bought that thing, they let me go, I got to keep it for the knife.
No, I'm not even kidding.
They were like, take it home, just bring it back tomorrow.
Right, but that wasn't new when you got it.
It wasn't new, but still they let me drive away with it.
The sunfire.
Yes.
And I drove away with it, and I kept it for a whole night.
And I was like, I like this thing.
Like, if I let someone test drive my focus right now, like they would probably, I mean, I would let it have it for the whole week.
It probably die before it got back, dude.
I saw Eddie, Eddie and I were driving beside each other, and you can't miss Eddie's car.
It has no hubcap.
Right.
I mean, it looks like it.
It has one.
There's one left.
That's the thing.
Peel off for it because it'll look like you have black wheels.
I like that one that's still left.
It looks like it's missing his teeth.
You're right.
It looks like he's got one tooth.
I got you.
I got you.
That four focus is a big turn.
So what were you going to say?
You were driving next to the one?
Oh, I go outside.
We're going to race.
I fall up beside you on music roll.
Oh, yeah.
Try to race me, dude.
And then he goes, let's race.
And I'm not going to take it racing your car.
I can take you out.
There's also, like, college gets crossing the road everywhere.
Yeah, that'd be bad.
That would be bad.
My car can get to 55 pretty quick, but once it gets to 55, it starts shaking a little
bit.
Y'all, this car owns in goes from like zero to 60 and less than a second.
That's not true.
Nothing goes zero to 60 and less than a second.
It goes really fast.
It was really fast.
It was like a rocket.
It was like turbo jet engine or something.
Do you feel like your midlife crisis out of your system?
No.
You don't.
No, I don't.
Maybe you should find a younger man.
What?
Yeah.
And just have him.
No, I like my husband.
No, just have to take you out, though.
No.
Like hang out.
No, but my husband was pretty excited about.
Apparently, whatever I was test driving is like his dream car.
I'm like, well, yeah, I keep dreaming.
Keep dreaming.
I got, I had him run all the comps, though, or the numbers.
Yeah.
And you came away with?
I was like, nice speaking with you.
How do you walk away from that without buying one, though?
So hard.
No, I mean, it's going to be awkward, right?
Like, thank you.
I'll get back in touch.
I was like, hey, so I need to talk this over with my husband.
And I'll get back to you.
They recognize you from the radio show?
No, I don't think so.
Thank goodness.
It's the Bobby Bones Show.
For those of you are listening today, you're having to work.
We're going to bring you some positivity right now.
I know both people are off, hanging out.
We're here with you.
Let's do Tell Me Something Good here for Monday.
Tell me something good.
You know how I love these stories.
This is the key.
Think back to when you were in school, Amy.
You thinking?
Thinking.
How many years do you think you missed any year?
How many days do you think you missed any year?
Probably.
Of school?
Yeah, any day.
I don't know.
Maybe one or two every school year.
Or five, maybe.
Maybe.
Depending.
Listen, Anthony Roberts at Tuttle High School in Oklahoma has not missed one day in 13 years.
That's impressive.
Kindergarten through 12th grade.
Never got.
Sick?
I can tell you right now, this is going to be a successful person.
Yeah.
Just by that third.
Quite the immune system.
No, no, quite the work, I think.
Stop it.
Well, and you're cool parents, too, because, I mean, sometimes, honestly, my parents would
take me out of school.
That dude, right there, that's what it's about.
Yeah.
Amy?
Well, Allison Farrell, a Missouri bride.
She asked her 92-year-old uncle to be the something blue in her wedding, you know,
something borrowed, something new, something blue.
She had him walk down the aisle wearing his Marine Corps uniform, complete with blue pants.
Wow.
Isn't that awesome?
Yeah, that is good.
Lunchbox, give me a little Monday.
Tell me something good.
When you get your yearbook in high school, there's always a couple photos.
You're like, oh, man, I never knew that photo was taken.
So the kids got a surprise when their high school yearbook came, and Alpha the dog was in it.
He's a service dog that's been to every day of high school.
So they gave him his own spot in the yearbook.
Said, congratulations.
That's cool.
See, look at that.
Like that positivity.
Thank you all for listening.
Thank you for listening today.
I appreciate you.
Let's go.
Bobby Bones.
The Bobby Bones show.
Songs turning 20 this year.
You ready?
Feel old?
Yep.
Oh, man.
Tim McGraw and Faith Hill
turns 20 in 2017.
Turning 20 this year.
Leanne Rhymes.
How do I live?
George Strait?
Although, I feel like this is older than that.
No.
Because George's songs all have the same kind of feel to them.
And even from, like, the age.
They feel the same.
So I feel like it could be that old.
But this is the song I listen to on repeat when I turned 16,
and I'm about to be 36, so that makes sense.
Hansen Mbop turns 20.
The Titanic song turns 20.
Yeah, this one too.
20 years old, boy band.
Third-eye blind, 20 years old today.
And one final song.
This is my jam, back in the junior high dances, whatever.
Just go to our...
Bring nasty
Especially her
You don't even matter
You don't even mad at your color
I wish I could go back and see you
On the dance floor as a kid
I look exactly the same as I do now
Bring it
So 20th birthday for all those
That's crazy man
We're getting a little older boys
As Tracy says
Time March is on

Bobby Bones show
Boney Head
This story comes to us from Cleveland, Ohio
A woman was at a gas station
Just needed to run in real quick
So she left her car running
Goes inside
And two guys like, oh, let's go steal that car
Jump in, only made it half a block
Why?
Ran out of the gas probably
Why should do the gas station?
Nope, stick shift
Didn't know how to drive the stick shift
Kept stolen
D-D-D-D-D-D-D-T
Try to get out and run
But police arrived
Can you imagine the back and forth
when you're trying to steal one,
not just trying to drive one.
You're pushing the drop in the clutch.
And, you know, they're still a little back and forth.
And when you're learning, there's back and forth.
But if you're trying to steal one and you're panic,
can you imagine how fast the thing is jerking?
I would just get out and run.
Oblunchbox, that's your bonehead story of the day.
Come on, y'all, y'all.
Hope your Memorial Day is going awesome.
I hope you remember why that today gets to be awesome.
During the interview, Dirk Spendley,
whose father was a World War II veteran.
He talked about sacrifices made by U.S. servicemen and service women.
But these soldiers, you know, they're gone for months, you know, years at a time.
They're doing 12 to 15 to 18 months appointments, and they have family back home.
That in itself is such a huge sacrifice, and that's just the beginning of it.
You know, that's just scratching the service of what these guys are doing every day,
preparing for battle, actually being in battle, being wounded in battle, sometimes, you know, dying in battle.
And so this country, obviously, we would not exist without those creations.
men and women and our future depends upon them.
So as you have your Memorial Day today,
we hope you remember why
and you think about those and honor those.
I'm developing a game for later this week.
Test version of it?
Yes.
All right, we're going to do a little test version of a game
I'm developing. Okay, it's in development right now.
I'll give you the artist, you give me their first ever
number one song.
Okay, okay.
For example, Luke Bryan.
There be three of these.
Luke Brian, first ever number one.

Okay, I'm in.
Amy?
Country girl. Shake it.
Lunchbox? My party.
Eddie. Oh, my
friends. Say.
Right? This is a tough one.
Okay.
The first ever number one from Lady Annabellum.
Oh, that's easy.
Think about that one. Is it, though?
Yeah.
I'm in for the win.
First ever number one from Lady Annabelle.
All right, Christmas.
All right, I'm in.
All right.
Amy?
They have some hits before this, but Need You Now?
On your bikes?
They had a lot of hits, but this was the first number one, downtown.
No, that definitely wasn't that.
That was late. That was like yesterday.
I thought you were trying to trick us, but I'm going to go down.
Need you now.
Need you now.
What did you have been down?
Need you now.
The answer is run to you.
It's tough.
You guys are not good at this game.
Neat you now is such a smash.
So is downtown.
How about Faith Hill?
Oh, it's easy.
First ever number one for Faithel.
Oh.
I'm in for the room.
Amy?
This kiss.
Lunch box?
Breathe.
Eddie?
This kiss.
Wild one.
It's like watching Jeopardy and everybody missed all the questions.
Yeah.
That never happens.
This is a tough one though.
Okay, okay, okay.
Miranda Lambert.
Okay, easy.
Ooh.
I got it.
Easy?
Yes.
Oh.
If you listen to the Bobbycast, you would know this.
What?
Mm-hmm.
Which episode?
Natalie Hemby.
Yeah, she wrote it.
I knew that.
Eddie, I thought you listened to all of them.
I haven't listened to that one.
I'm in for the win.
Amy?
Man, the house that built me?
No.
Too late.
Lunchbox.
Come on, guys.
That's kerosene.
Eddie?
Carosine.
White liar.
It's a terrible.
Really bad.
Who comes out?
Hit me with another one.
You won't get these, though.
Okay.

George straight.
Oh, that's first number one?
Yeah.
First number one, George Stray.
I got it.
I'm in for the win.
That's for the win.
For the win.
Everybody gets it.
Amy?
Amarillo by morning?
No.
Lunchbox.
Fireman.
No.
Eddie?
Hit me with unwound.
Full-hearted memory.
He'd try forgetting, but he knows it is zero.
It's terrible.
It's terrible.
This is a good hearted memory.
It was a tie?
I'll take it.
Yes, not it.
You have a mistake, though, because Luke Bryan's first number one was
do I in December 2009.
Hey, I don't write the game.
I still in development, too.
Well, and none of us guess, do I?
You sure it's not?
Oh, my friends.
Listen, whatever.
I still in development
and nobody won, so
no, no, um, no, um, no, uh,
controversy here.
You got to.
All right.
All right, so if a stranger's ever changed
their life, give us your story.
Carrie and Missouri.
Morning.
Hey.
Thanks for calling.
What do you got?
Um, well, I was in a car accident.
and the road into the ditch.
And a passerby saw the accident and stopped
because the person that hit us kept going.
And he stopped and let us know he'd be right back
and he chased down the person that hit us.
Wow.
Yeah, brought them back to the scene.
Wow.
Holy cow, do you still know this person?
No, I'd never met him.
Whoa.
How about that?
Well, thank you for the call.
That's like life-changing stuff.
It was.
Like, that's as good.
Samaritans, that's a good one.
That should be a thing.
Good Samaritans?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
It's all stories about people who have had strangers change their life.
And I was reading on Redder, or on Reddit, excuse me.
An art lesson from a stranger turned this whole guy into an artist.
A man will never forget, hip-up girl that he met at a nightclub, but because she had the hiccups, he was like, hey, you're okay, and they end up getting married.
So
Pick up girl, that's awesome
You know Brandon Ray met his wife on an airplane?
Yeah, I sat with him on a flight this weekend
This weekend
He said that they just started talking
They ended up having some crazy delay
They were on the tarmac for two hours
What was supposed to be like a pretty quick travel day
End up being like seven hours on this airplane
And they hit it off and got married
Yeah, that's crazy, huh?
And I told him, I said Bobby always thought he maybe
would meet his wife on an airplane
Southwest, because I fly Southwis all the time?
Then that's, they met on a Southwest flight.
Yeah, and every time I would have, like, a attractive girl come by that I could think I can marry,
she'd walk right by me.
Never sit by me.
I would even, if I was traveling with Bobby, I would make sure he had the seat empty if I saw a girl that, you know, looks like potential.
Yeah, she would tweet me two heads up, you know, B12.
I'd be like, five o'clock, brown hair, no ring.
Or then she'd be like, don't even try if she has a ring on.
Let's go.
Okay, stranger to change your life.
Christopher and Virginia.
Hey, Christopher.
Hey, Bobby.
How you doing this morning?
Good, man.
Thank you for calling.
What's going on?
back on November the 6th I was riding my motorcycle going to a business meeting or going to with my business partners
and we're going to have a little Bible study session and I was driving down from backwoods roads
on my motorcycle and I ended up hitting a deer of all things and there were two motorcycles behind me
and they took and stopped a lot of cars kept flying by.
They stopped, made sure I was all right.
You know, I asked if I needed to go to the hospital or anything like that.
You know, they checked me out, whatever.
And the dude went home, and he got his truck.
He got a trailer.
Oh, we lost him.
Oh, no.
He got up and everything, brought it back to where I was living at, back of the house.
Oh, wow.
Oh, you cut out for a minute there, but wow.
So he even picked your motorcycle up, too.
That's a good story.
Sorry, your phone's cutting out.
Hey, Kendra in Nashville.
Hi.
Hey, thanks for calling.
What are you?
Strangers, it affected your life?
Yes, so I was pregnant, and because my child was biracial, my family disowned me, and I was homeless, and I worked in a department store as a sales associate, and this woman came in and gave me a bed, clothes, like clothes from zero to a year old.
Everything I could have ever needed, and when I turned around to thank her after I went through the basket, he was gone, and it's a large department store.
Wow.
Wow.
That's crazy.
Yes.
Wow.
Everything I needed.
Bed, mattress.
Just think of having nothing, literally nothing.
Wow.
And then I just provide everything in one day.
Kendra, thank you for sharing your story with us.
That's crazy.
Like, really, I'm being serious here.
Do you wonder if that was a real person or not?
What?
Do you think of maybe it's like an angel or something?
Like, I'm being serious.
Yes, absolutely, because I couldn't find her.
That's the thing if you turn around and physically it's impossible to get away.
I don't know, I'd be like, yeah, I'd be like, I don't know, what just happened.
And I know it's funny to say that out loud with my words, and lunchbox is snickering over in the corner.
I mean, look.
Oh, gosh.
I know.
No, no, no.
That's an amazing gesture that the person gave you all that.
But it's not a fake person didn't come.
I didn't say they did, but I just said, do you wonder?
Like, there's one percent of, because, again, I've told the story of my grandma, and I don't think she really came in.
And she gave me a guitar before she died.
And my grandma raised me and adopted me for a part of my life.
And she gave me a guitar.
and I was like, hey, if you die, you got to send me a sign or something,
because you've got to tell me.
And I was talking to, I was by myself, and the guitar, boom, fell over.
Like when I was having a really bad day, I was talking about it.
And I was like, uh-oh, I think I'm gonna just pushed over the guitar.
What I bet money on it?
No.
But still, it's a chilling moment.
That is different than someone, an angel going to the-
You can't prove either one of them, really?
That is so much different than an angel going into the department store, shopping, you know,
pulling out a credit card, paying for this stuff, and is leaving.
Get out of town.
Like, I understand, like, an angel being in your room and looking at you, but buying you a whole basketball stuff, not buying it.
But lunch, books, you've been locked in a closet by a ghost.
Okay.
But that happened.
But not.
For sure, the ghost pushed you in a closet.
Absolutely.
Push me in a closet.
Do you not think this hypocritical a little bit?
A little bit.
No, no, no.
The ghost didn't buy me anything.
No, that's not the point.
That's what I'm saying.
Like, I understand, like, I believe angels maybe exist like you see one.
but they're not going shopping for you.
How do you know what they're doing is our point?
If you do or don't believe, how do you know what they're doing?
Okay, then why not an angel show up and buy me a house?
I mean, it doesn't happen.
They don't have money.
They don't do any of that.
They just show you.
How do you know what things do and don't do that you have no.
They may look over you and save you.
They have angel coins.
Stop.
Maybe they're paying angel kisses.
Okay, and then they go and, you know what I mean?
They put it on layaway.
I mean, angel, and they pay it off over the years.
Stop.
Like a great lifetime movie.
All right, lunchbox.
Angels don't buy you things.
They may save your life, but they don't buy you stuff.
Okay.
And you make the angel rules?
Do you have the angel rule book?
Yeah.
I'm pretty smart when it comes to angels.
Okay.
All right.
Well, thank you for your calls.
Angels and Outfield?
Yeah.
They helped.
What else?
Michael.
Oh, the angel?
Oh.
Touched by an angel.
Touch by an angel.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What else?
Charlie's Angels.
Charlie's Angels.
Los Angeles.
Okay.
That's all I got.
City of Angels
Oh, it's in the clutch
with City of Angels, good one.
All right, it's Monday, thank you for being here.
If you're listening right now, I mean, you probably have to work,
so we appreciate you.
Why we could be here with you.
So there's a website, Amy found this.
I did not.
I was not searching for wedding hashtags.
Yeah, the hashtagtestest.com.
Is that what it's called?
Yeah, I think so.
The hashtag test.com.
You enter both your first and last names,
and boom.
wedding hashtag done it generates it for you it will also tell you if you're actually meant to be
like where the percentage compatibility so okay um amy did me and my girlfriend's names yeah
i did two versions okay so you put in bobby plus linds i put bobby bones and linds okay so
the first one it said was skull and bones that's the hashtag but what a skull that doesn't make
sense i don't know they generated it for a wedding that's at a pirate wedding err maybe that's your theme
Walk the plank,
Mady to marriage.
You didn't like that one?
Maybe how you could dress up.
Maybe you could have your wedding at sea.
Oh, boy.
And then the other one it gave her was L of the above.
Like all of the above, but L of the above.
Lindsay, L of the above.
Oh.
That doesn't have anything to do with you.
I know.
I didn't generate things.
Nothing had to do with hers.
You want to know what's funny about,
Because my real last name is E-S-T-E-L-L.
Yeah.
E-S-T-E-L-L-L.
Uh-huh.
And her last name is E-L-L-L-L.
Yeah.
When I entered in your real last name, that's when I got L above the rest.
Or L-O-L-B-E-A-B-B-A-B.
Oh.
Yeah, I get it.
Or whatever.
But anyway, isn't that funny?
Our names are basically, or, yeah.
Oh, look at you finding those cute little commonalities.
It's meant to be.
It's merrier.
That is sort of like a...
Have you never noticed that?
I haven't.
But that's something that, like, someone that's gushing over.
their relationship would notice.
Or it's someone who's like, are we related?
Yeah.
Thank you for being here.
I hope you're off work.
And if you're off work, you know, this is a real deal.
Like today exists because of those who gave their life for us and for our freedom.
And so sometimes you've got to put yourself back in that and remember.
And take a second, take a minute.
Take time today.
to appreciate and think about those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
So we're talking to a lot of country stars and listening to them talk about, you know,
their relatives, their friends who've served.
Here Sam Hunt talking about his grandfather.
My granddad was in World War II.
He was on USS, Texas battleship, and he was over at Normandy and just over near Japan
and spent a lot of times right in the thick of World War II.
So he really took pride in what that meant and really was something.
I got to see firsthand.
So we thank you if you're serving.
We thank you if you're a family of someone that's serving.
And for those who pay the ultimate sacrifice,
we appreciate you so much here on Memorial Day.
The Bobby Bones!
Bobby Bones show.
All right, we're taking your Monday morning confessions.
Sometimes names come up with parentheses because they don't want to be known.
And so this is parentheses Mary.
Okay, hi, Mary.
Hi, how you doing?
I'm really good.
Thank you for being in our confession segment.
What would you like to share with our audience?
Well, when my husband proposed to me, he surprised me with the ring, and I didn't like it,
and I just didn't know what to say or had to tell him that I didn't like the ring.
And so it was just a couple weeks later of my friend's boyfriend died, and I went to the funeral,
and I accidentally dropped it at the grave site.
Wait a minute, you accidentally dropped it.
Wait, what?
Like, you threw it down there?
Well, I didn't throw it down there,
but it kind of dropped me in that general,
what's funny?
What?
Wait, what?
There's so many parts.
And so, you just wanted a new ring?
I wanted a new ring.
I didn't like that one,
and I didn't know where to tell him.
So he drops it in a,
at a, where a guy gets buried?
Yeah, yeah.
It's buried.
So now it's buried.
I did get a new one and I really like.
Yeah.
Well, thank you for the call.
I don't know.
Like, well, I always would be like selling at a pawn shop or something.
Right, like get money towards the new one.
But now it's like just in the ground.
Allison and Springfield, hello.
Hello.
Thank you for being part of Monday morning confessions.
Yep.
What would you like to say?
I have a parent confession about my daughter.
When she was 10 years old, my parents bought her a cell phone, which was about 10 years ago.
And it was when everything was just getting popular.
And so she would be texting her friends.
And I told her that,
whatever she sent her friends, I could log into the computer and look at those,
and that if she had deleted any of them off her phone, I would know,
and she would get the phone taken away.
So fast forward about six years, and she was, I guess she was 17,
she said something to me and asked me if I had seen a message that a friend had sent her.
And I said, well, no, how would I have seen that?
And she was like, because you log in and look at everything.
And I said, I don't know what you're talking about.
And she's like, you told me that you could log in and look at everything.
and I've argued with my friends for six years telling them not to send me bad stuff to do it.
Oh, my goodness.
Wow.
Eddie yells that's good from this thing.
That's great. I love that trick.
I know, right?
Yes, I'm a big fan.
Except you've got to remember what you're tricking your kids with.
That's the hardest part about lying.
You have to remember your life.
It's so hard.
It's hard.
Thank you for your confession.
I really appreciate that, Allison.
Have a great morning.
I want to do one more.
Let's go to Terry and Georgia.
Terry, welcome to Monday morning confessions.
Good morning.
Good morning.
What would you like to confess?
Well, I have been married for a couple of years now, and I actually have a state job that I get paycheck on every two weeks.
But I also receive a supplement check that my husband does not know about.
Oh, okay, another one of these.
Wow.
So you have money that he doesn't know you have.
Yeah, it's like $1,000 in the month.
What?
That he doesn't know.
Holy
Wow
He has no clue
Wait
What are you planning to do with this money
I put it in the savings
And also
I have children
Older children
That sometimes mean my help
And what would he say
If he found out
Oh he would be
He would not be nice
Oh no
Does he look
Does he look
Does he let's hang up
You know what
All right
Thank you for the car
I appreciate that
Like she was ready to end it.
She said, all right.
Got to go.
Thanks for having me on.
It's getting late.
Yeah.
All right.
Thank you always for the calls.
Wow.
Hello.
You on the air?
Crystal and Cedar Rapids.
Thank you for calling.
Hi.
This is actually the first time I've ever called into a radio station.
Hey!
Look at that.
Yeah.
Love that.
Thank you very much.
What do you want to say?
I just wanted to call in.
And thank you so much.
And I appreciate you.
and your support for the military.
My husband's a Purple Heart combat veteran.
He served in Afghanistan in 2010.
He lost his truck commander while he was deployed.
So Memorial Day is very important to us and our family and our extended military family.
And I just want to say make sure people go out and remember those that served for us
and our community and our country.
It's not necessarily about thinking veterans that are still alive.
It's about remembering those that have passed.
Yep.
Well, tell, I mean, even for even you and your husband, tell them, damn it's just, I still like to thank veterans.
Yeah, you still can.
But I mean, I get her point.
It's like sometimes people are like, wait, what is today really about?
And it's about remembering and honoring those that have lost their life.
And I think this is a great first call into the radio show.
Like, she's, she's, that's perfect message.
As far as first calls go, I do have to give it an A plus.
Yeah.
I would say, yeah, I would say yes.
I would say yes.
Great call.
great. Hey, I appreciate you, Crystal.
I appreciate you. There we go.
Thank you, Chris. Hey, really, everybody listening,
listen to her words. Man,
love that, love that.
I just leave it there.
Happy Memorial Day. And I say happy
because because of the people that gave their lives, we have the freedom
to have a happy Memorial Day.
So we remember those that pay the ultimate sacrifice.
Bobby Bones.
Bobby Bones Show.
I was reading this story about how a lot of married couples
have side accounts that they don't tell their other
about. Why would you do that if you're in a good trusting relationship? I need some help. I need
some perspective. Everybody's married but me. Eddie Lunchbox, Amy, you're all married? Yeah.
Does anybody want to admit to a side account? Anybody admit to have a side account?
Don't have one. Okay. I don't. I don't. That just needs you. Okay. Okay. Yeah. I don't either.
And I just feel like communication, especially on finances, since you hear like that can be the root of
of so much trouble in marriages.
Like, you just got to be honest about that sort of thing.
I don't know.
Lunchbox.
No need to have a side account.
We just have separate.
We don't discuss finances.
Her check goes to her checking account.
And my check goes to my checking account.
You pay all the bills, though.
I pay the bills.
I mean, because I make more money.
And so I write the checks for the bills.
I turn the lights out.
I turn the heat up.
I turn the AC down, whatever.
Okay.
So let me pivot for a second for money,
because you have this.
thing where since you make more, you run the house.
Yeah, I kind of enjoy paying the bills.
It makes you feel good.
Like a man.
Yeah.
So when it's time for the TV to go off,
do you say time for the TV to go off and then it goes off?
Yeah.
Like when I'm going to bed, I got the controller and I say, all right,
good night.
Turn it off.
What if she said, you go to sleep and I'm going to keep watching TV?
Oh, she can do that.
It's not like I control her bedtime, but more than likely she's coming upstairs with me.
Not like in a controlling way, but, you know, she wants to come next to her man.
She wants to go to bed.
If I'm ready to go to bed, she's usually ready to go to bed.
Because you're ready to go to bed.
Yeah.
I think so, because she doesn't like to stay up by herself.
But every once in a while she'll stay up and watch one of those Project Runway Jr. or something.
Yeah.
But 99% in the time?
Bedtime.
Do you control the heat?
I keep it on a certain temperature.
And your temperature.
Yes.
Because she would have it a lot hotter and I'm like,
Eden can put a blanket on you.
It's not that,
it's not worth extra money.
So you are the ruler.
Yeah, if you want to put it,
I mean,
I've never thought of it that way,
but I'm the king of the castle.
Yeah,
I know how you say it.
I'm just trying to get this dynamic out of your house runs.
It just seems so different when we see them together.
I would love to have her perspective.
No,
she would agree with you that I pay the bills because she even said.
No, no,
I'm just saying,
Would she agree that you're the king of the castle?
You're the one that said it.
You said I'm the ruler.
No, I asked a question.
Would she say that you're the king of the castle?
I would think so.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because she always says, if you need help paying the bills, you let me tell.
I got it.
Don't you worry about it.
So she gets to spend all her income.
Everything she makes is basically on whatever she wants.
She doesn't contribute to the bills.
No.
And you don't get any of it.
I don't get any of it.
Wow.
That's okay.
Yeah, I'm not going to take her money.
Like, she earns that money.
And the money that you earn.
You're sharing with her.
That's awesome.
It's really generous.
Yeah, I'll take her out to dinner.
You know, I put it on my card.
Why are you doing that?
Is this what I do when I do it?
He's like, I take her a dinner.
I tell her, I'm like, I got this.
Don't worry about it.
Do you still feel the need to show off?
Yep.
I mean, you have to.
You can't get comfortable.
You always have to try to show off because the more you show off, the more impressed she is.
So you're still trying to impress her with money.
and just access to things and, you know.
Like free tickets?
Yeah, free tickets.
And like, you know, if you're backstage somewhere, introduce her to the artist.
Like, oh, this is my wife.
Don't worry about it.
You know, today is the day of appreciation for those who have lost their lives for us.
And so as you're out, having Memorial Day, you know, take a second, a minute, an hour, a day, whatever it is to recognize that.
A lot of country artists talking about that.
Here's Eric Church, whose grandfather served in World War II.
I don't think you're going to have any American argue that America is the best place to live,
and I'm certainly one of them.
I'm very proud to be from here, and very proud that we have the soldiers,
and there's a lot of other countries out there in a world that don't want to live the way we do,
and that's fine.
They can just keep living the way they are.
I'm very proud of it, and I think that's a time to celebrate being proud to be an American
and celebrate those freedoms and celebrate the people that are over there fighting for those freedom.
Both my grandfather were World War II veterans.
I mean, that's something that's very, very much.
I'm not unique.
There's a lot of people out there like that, you know,
that their grandparents served.
It's something that the way I was raised was very much very white and blue,
and very patriotic.
And I think that it's the fact of what they give up is the real thing that's very touching to me.
Women who keep their maiden names are seen as less committed.
Wow.
I never thought about that.
I would have thought that would have seemed strong.
Yeah, because, like, they feel like they're strong, independent women, maybe.
I actually would have no problem.
Let's say, I were marrying Lindsay.
She were like, I want to keep my last name.
I'd be like, great.
Yeah.
No problem.
Yeah.
And she's also in the public, though, so it would be weird to change her last name.
Well, publicly, though, could she keep her name?
She's good.
Then privately take your name.
Yeah, but I had no problem if she didn't want to.
I don't even like my real last name.
I'm not as, like, yeah, like.
What if she was like, I want bones?
that would be a problem.
It's time to break up.
If it's a case,
they're probably not going to...
Oh, yeah.
Lindsay bones.
No.
That would not happen.
So, if lunchbox your wife said to you,
I want to keep my maiden name.
And she could keep it.
And she could keep all her stuff
and keep her life separate from mine
because we wouldn't be married.
You wouldn't marry her at all.
No, absolutely not.
Because that means they're looking for an out
because they don't have to change anything.
That way, if you do break up, it's not a big deal.
They're like, oh, I'm already set.
My name's already there.
Business-wise, it's already there.
No, you take my name, and we don't walk down that aisle.
Okay, so would you have gotten married Eddie if your wife said, I'm not taking your name?
Yeah.
You would married anyway?
Yeah, I trust her.
I trust her.
Like, that's nothing to me.
It's just a name.
And even worse, on my marriage, like, even worse than the maiden name, she took my last name,
and she didn't even keep her last name, her maiden last name, as her middle name.
She kept her middle name, which her family was like, what?
You got to keep our last name.
That's the only way we get it going.
You're like, no.
Get it going.
Like you don't keep it down.
Well, because in her family
all they have are girls.
Yeah, but after she's done,
nobody else has it.
I know.
But they're just hoping one more generation.
I wouldn't have a problem
with like doubling up
my name and her name.
Oh,
oh, you'd hyphenate yourself?
You hyphenate yourself?
Yeah, why not?
Not just your kids?
I got no.
It's equal.
I feel like we're equal.
Because then that's the thing.
It's like, which name do your kids take?
That's why you double it up.
Oh, I loved taking my husband's last name
and I'm not going to change it.
It's like an awkward to get the name.
I know, I just want to throw it.
I mean.
I'm not saying you shouldn't like it.
That doesn't make me not my own person, but I was excited to take it.
And I honestly, I think my husband would have been like, not like lunchbox, but he would have been, if I wouldn't have, he would have probably questioned things.
Teens whose parents let them drink alcohol as kids are more likely to drink, but way less likely to binge drink.
children giving sips of alcohol
and then allowed to drink at 15 and 16
do drink
but are very
way less likely to drink into trouble
because it's just a thing
it's not a big thing
it's just a thing
it's like kids who go to
or shelter and they go to college
and I saw it a million times
when you don't have something forever
and you're not allowed it forever
and you finally get it
it's like let me take it all right now
and so that's what this is
I agree with that somewhat
I agree with it all
I said that's why I agree with it
Because I know some kids in high school whose parents like totally let them drink.
It didn't matter.
And I would say there was a lot of binging going on.
I'd call it lots of binging.
Did your parents let you guys drink?
I had sips of alcohol.
Yes, as a kid.
My, yeah.
But it's like a 16 year old.
My dad, yes, my mom, no, but they were divorced.
So you'd go to one when you wanted to drink at a buddy's house.
And my dad's house, I could.
Oh, really?
Yes.
Lunch you?
They never gave me alcohol.
But when I was going out, they said, if you're going to drink, just don't drive.
That's all they said.
They didn't say don't do it.
Eddie?
I could drink at home, but I couldn't drink out of friends, yeah.
I could do whatever I want.
I had no rules, and I never drank a sip.
Crazy.
Well, one time my mom busted me having a party at my dad's house.
That was bad.
Oh, wow.
Can you tell it in 10 seconds?
I live two lives, basically.
Yeah.
One of my mom's one of my dads.
Can I tell it in 10 seconds?
Probably not.
I was saying my mom busted me and it was not good.
Did she come over and you were partying?
Yeah, because my friend was spending the night with me at my dad's house,
but the mom thought we were at my mom.
So that friend's mom called my mom is like, hey, is da-da-da there?
And she's like, what?
And then she's like, oh, they must be a dad's.
My mom drove over, showed up, and we were all there having a party.
Where you?
No, I was not, I was in trouble.
Are you playing seven seconds of heaven?
No.
No.
So with the four of us here, Amy, Eddie, lunchbox, myself.
You three are all married.
I am not.
I'm single.
Well, you have a girlfriend.
But I'm single, though.
Not married.
Yeah, like on a forum you click single.
Yes.
Yes.
So everyone knows that.
Now, is it okay to be married and have a crush on someone else?
Okay to who?
A real life human.
Not Dirk's or a movie star.
Thank you for recognizing that it's not real.
Thank you.
Welcome.
My Dirk's thing.
Because so many people get on to me, like, they think it's like I'm really like,
Yeah, I wonder sometimes.
Being rude to my husband.
Okay, a regular person that you know and can talk to, like Dirk's.
Okay.
Stop.
Someone that you'll never ever meet.
So.
I mean, I never ever thought I would ever meet Dirk's Bentley.
You're kidding.
I didn't plan on having this job.
Okay, but you're talking yourself right into what you just said.
Remember.
Okay.
Take a step back.
Is it okay to have a crush on someone else and tell your other person?
To tell them?
Yeah.
I think if you do tell them, can you feel?
figure out how to not have the crush anymore?
I don't think you can figure out.
It's a good point.
You probably want to work on not having that crush first.
That's what you have to do.
Is there some exercises?
Like,
if you went to your husband and you said,
listen,
I got to be honest with you.
I have a crush on Bobby.
No, no.
Keep me out of your mouth about that.
No.
But let's just say
Frederico from down the hall,
okay?
No, no, let's just say,
you go to your husband and say,
listen, I've been hanging out with Frederico.
I have a crush on him.
What would he say?
He'd be like probably, this is probably not going to hang out with Frederico anymore.
Right.
Which is I was like, keep me out of your mouth.
Yeah.
Hypothetical, that it doesn't matter.
Because we want to hang.
Yes.
Eddie, if you went to your wife, you've been married 11 years.
Yes.
And you said, you saw Frederica.
Uh-huh.
Yes.
And I have a crush on that.
No, no, you don't say it like that, though, because you can't say it with that passion.
How do you say it?
You're almost confused about it.
You're like, it's weird.
You say her, is it weird that I kind of have a crush on Frederica at work?
That's okay.
What's the comeback?
My wife says no.
It is weird.
Stop talking to her.
You're never going to talk to her again.
Isn't that unrealistic, though?
Thank you.
No.
I know Lunchbox is about to say something, but I have something for him if he does.
Lunchbox, what would you say to them?
It's only human.
Everybody does it.
You can say you don't, but everybody meets someone and it's like, oh, I like hanging out with them.
They're cool.
Like, if I see Jennifer from accounting and she's fun to hang out with it, I mean.
Would you tell your wife?
I can't have a crush on Jennifer.
Yes, I mean, you would.
Oh, my goodness.
Okay, what if your wife comes to you and she's like, hey, I've really been eye and John in accounting?
I think I crush on it.
Okay, fine.
Back up.
What if she's like.
Amy always takes it to a new level.
Go ahead.
Okay.
So lunchbox, your wife comes to you and John in accounting, she's got a crush on him.
You're okay with that?
Okay.
It's a work thing.
It's like you're a work crush.
Like you're, you just, it's natural to be attracted and have crushes on other people.
And you trust them not to.
Move on it.
Okay.
Can we all agree that maybe you get these crushes,
even if you just do or don't say anything?
Absolutely, yes.
So what do you say?
Do you say or you keep it a secret?
I don't have other crushes.
Good answer.
I'm not married.
What about Tina in the grocery store?
Nah, I'll like Tina no more.
Once I got a girlfriend, I like Tina no more.
I just want to know how you guys felt about that.
What about Holly, the yoga instructor?
Yeah, Holly's pretty hot.
Bobby.
Bop, bums.
I'm going to play you the last 10,
seconds of a song, like when it's fading out on the radio, like the end, and you have to name
the song.
Okay.
I don't so much care about the artist, but if you say the wrong artist, you lose the point.
You don't have to say an artist at all.
So don't show off unless you know.
Unless you want to show off.
Okay, are you ready?
So again, I'll play the last 10 seconds of a song.
Ready?
Yeah.
Right.
And these are all hits, right?
Yeah.
Pretty recent hits?
Yeah.
Okay.
Ready?
Last 10 seconds of the song?
Here we go.
How hard is that game?
Because, again, it sounds familiar, right?
And for the win, that's easy.
You want to hear it again?
Yes.
The last 10 seconds of the song.
Write your answers down, please.
It's going to be weird.
I've got to do this music, sorry.
Okay.
All right, Amy.
Star of the show.
Lunchbox?
Record year.
That's right.
I know what it is.
Eddie?
That's crazy.
He got it right.
I said, may we all.
You know what it is?
It's record year.
I'm having a record year.
That's it, dude.
Wow.
How did you know that?
Because you played the last 10 seconds.
I was like, I know that song.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay, there we go. Number one.
Ready for number two?
The last 10 seconds of the song.
Name the song.
You got this one?
Yeah, I got it.
I give it to you one more time, lunchbox.

but it was running out of time.
I just wrote blue.
Amy.

Yes.
Eddie?

We're all tied up.
And then it ends like this.
That's like that.
All right for the next one?
Yep.
All right.
Last 10 seconds of the song?
Again, again.
I'll play it one more time. Ready?
You got it?
Oh, I got it.

Break up in a small town.

No, it's moose.
I love it, yeah, I love it when you get that beat.
And then the end of it goes.
There you go.
All right, we have two more.
Ready?
No.
We have the last 10 seconds.
That one's impossible
That one's impossible

That's star the show
That's what I was putting down

That was easy.
Okay.
Ray, like, you, sweet.
He made the game terribly hard.
Why don't I just play air?
What song am I thinking?
I mean, the fade out was 10 seconds long.
Yeah, dude.
Ray's not even looking at this.
Ray's got his eyes.
He's mad.

Today's Memorial Day and I hope
that you recognize that. If you have the day off,
like it's awesome to have a day off.
But to recognize why we have the day
off is where it really is
today. And we're very thankful of
those who serve.
But today's Memorial Day, we recognize those
who gave their lives. The ultimate price
for our freedom. And so a lot of
country stars talking about it. Here's Karen Fairchild
from Little Big Town.
talking about those sacrifices.
Kimberly and I met a young girl last week that she's 21 years old and she has the third baby
and her husband has served multiple times overseas and she's raising these children at home
and just doing a great job and the best she can and he's serving our country and he's making
a monstrous sacrifice but so is she and so are those children and we just can't take it for granted.
So to the families, to those that are serving, we appreciate you.
And today's about those who gave the ultimate.
a sacrifice. So as you celebrate Memorial Day today, remember why today even exists.
Man, so happy you guys could spend even just a few minutes with us today. Thank you so much.
Got to go. Hopefully you guys will be around. We'll be around. I'm around all day, actually. Mr. Bobby
