Starting point is 00:03:09 This is the Bobby Bones show. That's right. Yeah, welcome to Friday's show. Dance parties, Chris Jansen. We've got a lot happening today. By the way, good morning. Good morning. Eddie wants to buy a boat.
Starting point is 00:03:23 Have you heard this yet? Oh, great. I know. You want to own a boat. A boat? Yeah, it's almost that time. It's about to warm up and we're about to hit the lake. But isn't that just a money pit?
Starting point is 00:03:31 Well, so our producer, Eddie, who does our videos, he's got two kids. Yeah, I don't have a lot of money. Always complain about money. Yeah, you need to, like, rent a boat. I have a plan, though. Okay, go ahead. My plan is, there's a boat in the neighborhood that's been parked by a house. Like, I've been scoping it for two years now.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Dude, I finally, I think I'm going to go up to his door and not going to be like, I'm going to give you $500 cash right now for that boat. It never moves. So I think he's going to say, yeah. So here's my advice. It's someone who's been a boat person before. If you're going to pay $500 for the boat, expect to pay, I don't know, $2,000 to keep it running. Really?
Starting point is 00:04:04 To fix it. Yeah. Oh. You know what they say what boat means? What? What? What? Buy another on.
Starting point is 00:04:13 Bring another. I know. It means something. Does it really? Yeah. Oh, I didn't know all that. Yeah. It's like bring on another thousand or something like that.
Starting point is 00:04:23 Oh, dude. I was just thinking $500 and we'd go on the. Lake invite all you guys on a Friday afternoon. Break out another thousand. There it is. That's what boat means. So not $500. Apparently, every time you turn around, it's like another grand to fix something else.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Well, thanks for the encouragement, guys. And then you set up a time all your friends show up to go on the boat and nobody comes. Maybe that was just me. Recognizing people, doing cool things. It's ICU. A Georgia woman accidentally threw out a bag of trash that had $100,000 in jewelry in it. Why are you putting not much jewelry in a trash bag?
Starting point is 00:05:00 But that's not the story. She threw out a bag. I don't know why it was in there. It could have been for any amount of reasons. She didn't realize that it was gone until the garbage collectors had already picked it up.
Starting point is 00:05:12 She called the Hall County Waste. Johnny Vickers, the director, and a team of five employees searched through nine tons of trash. Wow. A lot of trash. Wow.
Starting point is 00:05:22 They found the bag of jewelry. It took several hours of going through garbage. but they found it. And shout out to these guys, because they also didn't keep any of it. Because how would you know? So they went, and I don't know what rule,
Starting point is 00:05:38 if she didn't give them some pearls or something. Something. A ruby. Yes. Like hook them up with that Titanic jewel. But shout out to these Hall County sanitation workers who went through two, no, no, nine tons of trash. That's a dirty job.
Starting point is 00:05:54 And you know what? Nobody had to do it. They did it. I see you. The Bobby Bones Show. Big Three Stories. It's producer Raymond in Miami, a newly installed pedestrian bridge that was still under construction collapsed. It killed six people and injured others.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Cruz said they won't stop until they're for sure. No one else is trapped under the bridge. In weather news, a fourth Nor'easter could hit the Northeast Monday, bringing rain and snow. That's going to be the fourth Northeaster in just a little over two weeks. And finally, March Madness, a lot of brackets busted. Number 13, Buffalo upset. Number 4, Arizona. Day 2 gets underway at noon today, 11 a.m. Central.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Get your bones on. Bobby Bones show. This guy goes in for surgery because he ruptured his appendix, and he gets the anesthetic. He's out, right? And so he wakes up in the middle of the surgery as they're in. I mean, they're knuckles deep in this dude. And he goes, huh?
Starting point is 00:06:54 And he wakes. And he starts to feel like he should. choking on a bottle cap? No. But what it was, it was that tube in your throat. While you're unconscious, your body's not trying to swallow. But all of a sudden, he's like, and so he's
Starting point is 00:07:06 awake. What do they do? They're working on his appendix. He said he felt paralyzed. He was unable to communicate. So the staff had no idea. He was awake. So scary. He tried blinking, like, hello. Like blink, like, look at me. They obviously weren't looking for a blink.
Starting point is 00:07:21 He started wiggling his fingers and toes. In an last attempt to get the medic's attention, he made the conscious decision to urinate on the operating table. I guess that's the only thing you had control of. Isn't that crazy? And then they had to put him back under it because they go, oh, he's being. Let's go. Okay, well, there's pee pee there.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Let's go up. And he's blinking and his fingers are moving. So he says he felt locked in his own body. He was told after he woke up. Oh, you just had a bad dream. But he's like, no, I remember that crap, man. Wow, that's scary. That's not cool.
Starting point is 00:07:53 He returned to work a week after the operations, but he said he's having PTSD because he keeps thinking about that when he woke up and couldn't breathe and he couldn't move him no one could hear him. Isn't that insane? Did they just not give him a high enough dosage or his body? I mean, that's... The part that really resonates to me was that thing. Yeah, that would be so scary.
Starting point is 00:08:14 Yes. I love that he peed on them. Yeah, I'll show you. That's how he screamed, hey! And the guy starts thinking of all these things. He's working his way down his body. Okay, let's start with the top of the head, forehead. Nope. Blinks. Nope. All right. I'll do the B-Witch thing with the nose. Ting-Ting-K-K-K-K-N. Nope.
Starting point is 00:08:31 Fingers. Nope. Well, got to let her rip, boys. I guess I'll pee. Now time for your positivity. Tell me something good now. A single mom has a new car thanks to a bunch of talented kids that are at a high school. For weeks, the class where they learn about cars, they've been working on this Jeep Cherokee trying to restore it. And as they restore it, they're learning, obviously. So they finally finished and then they delivered it to Monica White, who had been relying on relatives to help run errands,
Starting point is 00:09:02 to help get the kids of school because their cars broke down. And so they took it, they fixed it, they finished it, they drove it over to her and said, here's your car. We were like to present this to you. Wow. That's pretty awesome. And she cried and now she can drive the kids places. That's cool, man.
Starting point is 00:09:16 I hope they continued doing that. I liked it they took and they rebuilt it as a learning tool and then gave it and paid it forward. Amy, you're up. So there's a couple they decided to start doing foster care. and they thought maybe one child, maybe two at a time. Well, the first call they got for some kids to foster was a family of four. So four kids and they just really didn't want to separate them. And that was back in 2015.
Starting point is 00:09:39 And now they officially have adopted them. So a 17-year-old, 16-year-old, 15-year-old, and 11-year-old now have a family. And it took that many years to go from foster care to adoption with the same family. And of course, that family, they were like, hey, we just want to foster one kid. and now, bam, they got four. That's cool. Kept them together, which is so important. I bet those stories really resonate with you too since you've adopted.
Starting point is 00:10:03 Oh, I know that this is... And I know that this is no easy. These people are serious, legit angels. I mean, I'm not saying I put myself in that category, but... Well, I would like to put you in that category. No, no, no, no. But older kids like that and making a sacrifice to keep these siblings together and giving them a mom and a dad, that's amazing.
Starting point is 00:10:22 Lunchbox. Lisa Nagy was on a date night with her husband. They went to a dinner. They're driving home. And he said, you know, it would make this night perfect. If we stop for some ice cream. Oh, yeah. Pull into the gas station.
Starting point is 00:10:32 She says, go in there and get us some ice cream. And as she's getting out of the car, he goes, you know what? Get a lottery ticket to just in case. Love it. Scratch it off. And the happy couple ate their Rocky Road ice cream and won $400,000. Wow. Best date night ever.
Starting point is 00:10:49 Cheching. Cheching. Yay. Look that. Bobby Boneshow. Here we go. The latest from that. Phil in Hollywood. Amy's 30 Second Skinny.
Starting point is 00:10:58 Finally, after five years in the making, seasons change is out. It's Scotty McCurry's album. You can now buy it today. Yeah, what's on there? Congratulations, Scotty McCurry there. And speaking of congratulations yesterday, Brad Paisley and his wife Kim celebrated 15 years of marriage. I thought that. I know. And it's still crazy to me how he was watching Father of the Bride, saw her, liked her. Then they got in contact and ended up dating. Oh, is that how they got in?
Starting point is 00:11:27 together? Did the whole agent thing? I'm pretty sure he fell in love with her on the big screen. How can I? I can't do that. I fall in love with lots of people on the big screen. It never works out for me. Every time I'll watch the big screen, I fall in love with somebody.
Starting point is 00:11:38 Man, I need to try that. Okay, what else? And a few little things that happened this week, just in case you missed them. TRL, Total Request Live. There was this rumor that it was ending, done so. But actually, MTV is bringing it back along with an afternoon and late-night version of it. So it was on. It died.
Starting point is 00:11:56 They brought it back. They said it died, but now they're saying it's not true. Yep. I mean, really, nobody's really watching it anyway. It's returning April 9th, so. Well, mark my calendar. Anybody else cares about that? Apple calendar.
Starting point is 00:12:07 Hold on. All right, go ahead. I don't know if you guys saw this, but Johnny Mansell got married. How about that? At a courthouse in California. Good for him. To Bree or Bre. Brie, his girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:12:17 I don't know. I'm Amy. That's your 30 seconds, Gennie. Let's go. This teacher fired a gun in the class as they were trying to do gun safety. Oh, man. And hit a kid. Really?
Starting point is 00:12:28 Yeah. A California teacher accidentally fired a pistol inside the classroom while teaching gun safety. Injured three students. Dennis Alexander was teaching. You know why it's kind of funny as nobody died. Yes, okay. So I'm okay to laugh because I find it hilarious. Gun safety, here we go.
Starting point is 00:12:46 It's ironic. It's okay to laugh at irony. Yeah, it's irony. Actually, it's like Ray Yey-Yane on your wedding day. Oh. It's like a gun safety teacher that shoots. Somebody. The errant bullet ricocheted off the ceiling.
Starting point is 00:13:03 It sent fragments out and injured three students, including a 17-year-old who was struck in the neck. Dang. Lucky. This guy shouldn't be teaching that class anymore. No, probably shouldn't. He also serves as a reserve police officer. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:13:18 Yeah, it's not a good look, huh? No, I mean, that's bad timing, too, like for that to happen. It's always bad timing to shoot somebody in a classroom. When lunchbox was in a classroom. high school, a kid brought a gun to school and shot it, right? Yeah, he was in English class and he was like showing off the gun and it went right, he goes, boom, shot right through this girl's leg and they come on the announcements. They said, do not come to the English wing.
Starting point is 00:13:37 We've had an incident. So, of course, everybody goes to the English wing and it was on the third floor. So they had to bring the stretcher up to the third floor to get this girl out of there. And the dude ran out of school, stole a car, crashed it, stole another car. And never came back to school though, never saw him again. Huh, wonder what he's doing now? that guy is James Franco He's making it
Starting point is 00:13:59 Successful movie star But yeah we went right through the girl's leg I mean boom That's crazy And she's okay Oh yeah she's okay She's a realtor now Making some money
Starting point is 00:14:06 She won the Olympic medal For No but Because lunchbox went to school There wasn't a lot of issues either But someone brought a gun Just showing it off right Yeah
Starting point is 00:14:13 A lot of people brought guns to school I remember this dude Sean I don't want to say his last name No Okay Sean we're in line at lunch And he was like Dude check this out
Starting point is 00:14:21 And he showed me a gun in his backpack And I was like Oh cool dude Just normal old dude, just carrying a gun in his backpack. Oh, wow. And so, was it a, I'm assuming it's a pistol. Yeah, it wasn't like a long, big, it wasn't like a shotgun. It was just a little pistol gun.
Starting point is 00:14:33 I was like, dang, dude. And so what do you have like on its side? They just actually pulled the trigger or what when they shot the girl on the leg? Oh, that guy, he had pulled it all the way out of his backpack. And he was just showing everybody underneath. Like, I guess they were sitting in groups, and he was showing everybody and just boom. And so did he run out? Feet don't fail me now right then?
Starting point is 00:14:49 Oh, gone. And they stole a car. Stole a car. Stole a car. Oh, my goodness. I think he got arrested. Wow. And then,
Starting point is 00:14:58 probably still in jail or now? No, he's probably out doing something. He's probably like a priest now. Yeah, probably a priest now. Bobby Bone Show. Story of the day. This story comes to us from Minnesota. A 21-year-old man went out with some friends,
Starting point is 00:15:13 came home, ate some chicken nuggets, fell asleep on the couch. Only problem is he went in the wrong house. Oh, man. You have a risk and getting shot. So dangerous, yeah. I mean, if I walk down, into someone's sleep in my couch or passed out and I didn't know.
Starting point is 00:15:27 Because I keep a... I have guns. But I keep a baseball back closer. I wouldn't take the baseball back to them, probably. Even while they were sleeping? Only. You're kidding me? Only.
Starting point is 00:15:40 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm trying to fight on for real. I'd nudge them first. And just then if they... Game time. I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day. What happened with the guy?
Starting point is 00:15:50 Oh, you got arrested for burglary because he ate the chicken nuggets. Oh. stole the two nuggets. Yeah, I probably let him have one of those plea deals in the nuggets. The plea bargain? Yeah, yeah, the old nugget plea bargain. Clara and Austin is on.
Starting point is 00:16:07 Hi, Clara. Hi, good morning. Good morning to you. What's happening? Not much. Just on my way to work. Yeah, what can I do for you? I had a question for lunchbox because, you know, they had played that baby crank on his mom or his wife did for Christmas.
Starting point is 00:16:21 So I was wondering how they told his parents and if his mom believed them this time. Yeah, so what was the prank you guys did at Christmas? No, I didn't do the prank. The prank was on me. My brother and my wife bought baby shoes and my brother had a son and grandfather when he found out he was going to be a father. And they put it in a box and made me think I was going to be a dad. And my mom cried and all this. And it was like, whoa.
Starting point is 00:16:42 Did you get emotional then? I was like, I was in shock. I didn't get emotional. But I was just like, no way. This is crazy. And then she told me it was a joke. So did you think when they came back to you, the super. you did the second time that it could have been a joke?
Starting point is 00:16:57 No, because we were alone, and I didn't think she would pull it off twice. That would be just cruel and unusual. To keep going back to the well? Yeah. Huh. Okay. That makes sense, Clara. Does that make sense to you? I mean, yes, but how did his mom feel when they finally told her? Did she think it was a prank again? No, she was ecstatic. We surprised them by showing up at their front door in T-shirts that said,
Starting point is 00:17:22 Baby Mama and Baby Daddy. You flew on to do that? Yeah. You didn't tell anybody here? Nope. We flew to Houston, surprised her parents at their house, and then they drove us to Austin, and we showed up at my parents' door on a Saturday night at 8 o'clock. Your parents didn't know you were coming at all. Had no idea. And my dad opens the door, is like, come on. Oh, my goodness. Get down here! Get down here! My mom goes running down the stairs, and it was crazy.
Starting point is 00:17:46 Oh, that's so awesome. Well, congratulations. I feel like everyone was trying right along with you. We're so excited for you. How about that? Did you know that part of the story? I did not. I did not either. Hey, that's a great call, Clara. You got some stuff out of him that we couldn't get out of them. Oh, well, great.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Thank you all so much. Love y'all so much. Thank you very much. Appreciate you. Bye-bye. There we go. How about that? Well, I think this guy over here having a baby excited about it.
Starting point is 00:18:11 I know. He's already becoming more sensitive. You know, earlier today, he was talking about women's rights in the workplace. Soft or side. He was a bit. During their brain. He doesn't come about anybody's rights, but his own. So men, women.
Starting point is 00:18:26 But yeah, yeah, I do see a little softer side of him, don't you? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Daddy. Don't say that. Call me that. No, we're not calling you, daddy. You want us to call you daddy?
Starting point is 00:18:35 No. I hear me say it. Say daddy. No, no, it's not. It's not, it's all. On the Bobby Bones show now. Jeremy McGee. Is that close enough?

Starting point is 00:18:53 Like, like, um, like, Germud with a J. Okay, so, oh, so they said it right, Jeremy. Like, perfect. Wow. Okay, Jeremy McGee is here. Here's the backstory of Jermid. He was just sitting in the studio one day,
Starting point is 00:19:04 watching the show because you met one of our producers at the mail place. I ran into Morgan posting guitar pedals back to Ireland. Yeah, so he was sending things in the mail. That's so crazy. And Morgan's like, hey, this Irish dude wants to come watch the show. I said, cool, let him sit in. All of a sudden, I ask him on the air, hey, do you play music? I do, might, whatever you said.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Oh, man. And so we grabbed him a guitar from in the studio. He never told us. I asked it to him. And he starts playing and grab your guitar. And so he started, and this sound comes out of him. What did you play? Reck and Ball, is that what you play?
Starting point is 00:19:38 Do you still know that one? Oh, God. What do you know? Just give us a little bit of something. Whatever you know, give us a little something American here. I mean. He'd only been in America for how long at the time? I was on holidays.
Starting point is 00:19:49 So vacation? Yeah. That's what that means? I was here like, yeah. Yeah. I was here for like 12 days with my aunt. day number eight that's when I met Morgan
Starting point is 00:19:57 and so just play a little something for our listeners hey thanks for listening to this interview and so here's the problem with legal issues we can't play Jeremy's performance in the podcast
Starting point is 00:20:07 because of some weird music thing but it is up on YouTube and bobby bones.com so more here I just can't play the music part of it thank you for understanding and so I ran into Jeremy I was playing the Bluebird
Starting point is 00:20:21 and he's like hey I said hey you should come up for St. Patrick Day. Now it's tomorrow. And how I was like, hey, you're Irish. Come on up. So, do you guys have traditional? All right, let me get some Irish music up here. Do you know this song? That's one of your favorites from back home?
Starting point is 00:20:37 My family wrote that. Yeah. Is this traditional? Yeah, that's some hardcore Irish stuff right there. There's different types. Like, that's traditional Irish. And then there's folk songs and ballads and all that. What would this be called?
Starting point is 00:20:53 That's what American people think. about when they think about Ireland, man. But that's not what Ireland plays. Is that on the pop station right now? It's probably about number three. Yeah. We've got like a Broadway in Dublin, like Broadway in Nashville, right? Like a bar street with a bunch of bars.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Yeah. Exactly. And you're going to hear that right there. You're not going to hear country music. Interesting. Amy, Irish trivia. Tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day. Ready?
Starting point is 00:21:18 What's the capital of Ireland? Dublin. Is that correct? Boom. Good. Who famously ran snakes out of Ireland? Amy? St. Patrick.
Starting point is 00:21:29 Correct. What's the name of the Irish tradition where a shamrock was added to the last drink of the day? This is a... What's the name of the... Yeah, what's the name of the tradition where they added a shamrock
Starting point is 00:21:42 to the last drink of the day? A drink a shamrock. You know what it is? It's drowning the shamrock. You ever heard of that? I'm learning. I'm learning. So it must not be real...
Starting point is 00:21:52 So it's like putting... a little tarantula and tequila and tequila? Warm. What's the name of the official Ireland mascot?
Starting point is 00:22:06 Oh, the Lucky Charm. That's correct. There it is. Lucky. Okay. Does everyone ask you about Lucky Charmer's Jarmer? See, I am Irish.
Starting point is 00:22:14 It's not a lot. The Lucky Charmers' mascot's not really the Ireland mascot. Oh, what is it? I don't know. I was just kidding about that. Oh. Do you want to ask you about that?
Starting point is 00:22:22 Do you know what this thing you spit into a test tube. People literally, I had a woman last year come up to me and she was like, listen, I'm 32.67% Irish. And I'm like, how do you know the decimal place? Like, that doesn't make sense. Everyone's doing it, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:37 Is St. Patrick's Day a big deal to you guys? Oh, yeah. It is? Yeah. Like the big holiday? Yeah. What do you guys do on St. Patrick's Day in Ireland? Yes.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Drink? All day? It's a big festival, you know. They've like floats and stuff. How old do you have to be to drink in Ireland? 14. 14? 18, 18, I'm only joking. Wait, so do they care, though, if a 14-year-old goes to drinks?
Starting point is 00:22:58 Oh, yeah. Oh, they do care? Oh, yeah. You've got to be 18. It's kind of weird here. Like, if you're, like, three months from being 21, and you can't have a beer, it's kind of weird. But if you're 18 in Ireland, you can drink. And even before that, really, they just don't enforce it. I mean...
Starting point is 00:23:13 When did you start drinking? I actually don't drink, man. You don't drink now? I used to, but I haven't drank in years. Mm-hmm. So... Do you know any Irish songs in your guitar? Sure.
Starting point is 00:23:22 Can you play one for us? We'd be curious to know what you'd play at the pubs. Oh, really? Yeah. I mean, tomorrow's, you guys win an Irish song for State Patrick's Day? Yeah. Does this sound like every insurance song? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:32 Did you guys think that? I mean, I feel like itchurance. And like some fairy tale mixed in with like a castle and flowers on the mountain. And I'm picturing, you know, you're building this castle for a girl. Am I, am I right? That's so beautiful. What's a lassie? What's a lassie?
Starting point is 00:23:47 Yeah, you can have a lassie. You know what? I actually think Scotland claimed that song is theirs. Alassi's a girl We don't really say that But I guess I guess Alassie's a girl
Starting point is 00:23:59 Yeah What have you been doing in town Do you have a You playing shows or anything? Man, I moved over here a year ago Next week I work a lot I don't think I've played
Starting point is 00:24:10 I played twice And Why are you not playing more shows Like you're good You gotta get there And grind it though I'm right man I got a job
Starting point is 00:24:18 At the Musicians Hall of Fame Doing Resident Irish guy, I don't know what I do. Like bartending? No, like tour guide with an accent. Oh, so you're touring? Yeah. Okay. So, and then at nighttime I work in a bar just off music row
Starting point is 00:24:32 and it's good, man. It's really good. Yeah, but do you want to do music or not? 4 million percent. So why are you doing it? I know, that's an awful question, man. Like, you can do it. You just have to find time to do it. For sure. For sure. I, man, I write every day. I can't like do creative writing more so than sit down and write 10 songs in an afternoon, but I need to get my stuff together.
Starting point is 00:24:53 What do you do at Starbucks whenever you go in? Because you can't say your name is Jarman, because they will never spell it. Literally, the Starbucks on Church Street hates me. So I just say John. My grandfather's called John, so I just say John. I tried German a couple of times, and they're like, they do that blinky thing where they don't say anything, and they just stare at you. So then you say, okay, John.
Starting point is 00:25:12 Yeah, it doesn't matter. How do Irish people do impressions of Americans? I'm not going to do it because I would suck at it, but, uh, I guess our stereotype version, I'm sorry if I insult you guys, is a... No, that's what we want to be insulted. We want you to do it. You know, like the 90s movies where all the New York people are the slicked hair? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:31 That's my stereotypical idea of an American. And how do we sound? Don't do that to me. Because if I were to do you, I'd be like, hey, Lassie, it's me, damn it. Here I am with the unicorns and the four-leaf clovers, eh. You'd be like a... Hey, man, I just want some fried chicken, you know? So, how is that terrible?
Starting point is 00:25:49 But we don't see you know. That's as bad as mine was. I'm sorry. Maybe Wisconsin. Yeah. Fried chicken. You know. He goes, would you like some fried chicken, you know?
Starting point is 00:26:02 In the same accent, all I said about the word is fried chicken and made of American. Do you guys have fried chicken in Ireland or no? We do, but not to the extent of here. You know, it's everywhere here. You wake up and it's in your room. Where do you live? Hey, so, Jarman McGee is here. We met him a while ago.
Starting point is 00:26:19 and I thought we'd bring an Irish guy in tomorrow St. Patrick's Day. Give us, let's let's just hear one more, one more piece for me. You have your guitar. Give us a verse and a chorus of a cover song so they can hear you. Listen, I know what's like to have to pay the bills
Starting point is 00:26:31 and have to pay bills to pay the bills. But if you really want to do music, the only person that's keeping you from doing it is you. That's it. There's nothing else except you're not making the time to do it. So, you're really good. Thanks, man.
Starting point is 00:26:47 I feel like I'm out like my therapist or something? Well, it's disappointing to see you not trying, so if I need to kick you in the butt to go, hey, you have to get out there and try, then you have to do it. Otherwise, you can't complain about not making it. You can't complain about anything. I haven't heard him really complain, though.
Starting point is 00:26:59 No, no, yeah, yeah, yeah. Thank you, me. No, he's complaining because he's not doing it. When is he... Oh. I can tell him his heart. He's a heart's complaining. Okay.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Oh, that was deep. Okay. Okay, I'll take that. Yeah, he does need some motivation. He does need some encouragement to, like, get out there. Like, it seems like you're working just to stay afloat here, but then, You said four million percent you want to do this.
Starting point is 00:27:22 That's complaining. He's saying it, but he's not doing it. Stop complaining. We're learning something new here. But Bobby, you're sort of, I guess you're right, yeah. Well, Jeremy, happy St. Patrick's Day, brother. You too, guys, you too. It's good to see you again.

Let me know what you think. I will. I'm Amy. That's your 30 second skinny. Folks, it's your buddy and mine. Mr. Bobby Bones. Transmitting across America. All right. Chris Jansen is here. He's coming in the studio in the next three minutes.
Starting point is 00:30:07 First, the morning corny. The morning corny. How many apples grow on a tree? How many apples grow on a tree? All of them. I don't get it. What's the joke? All of them.
Starting point is 00:30:25 All of them do. That's funny. That's like a riddle more than a joke. Yeah. Do you have any other ones? Oh. I didn't get it. I mean, there was a riddle.
Starting point is 00:30:34 I was like, how many? Okay, yes, I do. Go ahead. How does a penguin build its house? How does a penguin build its house? It glues it together. Okay, funny. Funny, funny, funny, good.
Starting point is 00:30:45 That was the morning corny. On the Bobby Bone Show now. Chris Jansen. Clap your hands, everybody. Yeah. Hey, buddy. Hey, brother. I was sad that I missed when you got the call to come be a member of the Grand Ole Opry because I was on an airplane and it was your Riemann show. I didn't even know it was going to be the Opry show. I just knew it was your Riemann show and I wanted to be there because you sold out to Riemann. Thank you very much, man. It was awesome. And I say you a text back as I can't
Starting point is 00:31:15 be there and I was on a flight and I saw Keith Urban came out and invited you to be a member of Randall, and I just wanted to doubly punch myself. Oh, man. Hey, you know what? We all have things going on, and I totally understood, but I would have loved to had you there. It was an amazing night, and, you know, Keith was coming out to be my special guest, which was a surprise to people, but not to me. I knew he was coming to sing with me, but I didn't know that the invitation was coming. You really didn't know. No, and neither did Kelly, my wife. Like, and nobody, nobody knew except there were three people who knew. Tom Lord, my co-manager, John Esposito, and Sally from the
Starting point is 00:31:48 general manager of the opera. it and nobody else knew. Now looking back, you know, when I invited Urban the first time to come sing with me and we got that solidified that he was going to be coming, we shoot videos back and forth all the time of like YouTube and I just sent him Tom Petty and Eddie Vedder doing the waiting. And now looking back to my text, it makes total sense because he knew, and I didn't know. And he texts back. He's like, wow, ironic, the waiting in capital letters truly is the hardest part. And I was like, what kind of message is that supposed to mean? Urban similar.
Starting point is 00:32:19 It's so passive aggressive. That's weird. But now looking back then I was like, oh, okay, I get what he's trying to say. But man, it was, you know, I'm like the unsurprisingly guy. And it's hard to surprise me. And that just took me by storm. And it was such a beautiful moment because I didn't know the Opry was filming in the Ryman that night secretly. I thought we were just doing content stuff because it was a sold-out Riemann Show and whatever.
Starting point is 00:32:44 And it's a home of the Grandin Opry. So putting all that together and looking back on it, reflecting on it, It was pretty amazing. And, you know, it was my dream come true to be on the radio having hit songs. And my other dream come true to be playing the opera, let alone being a member. And now being invited to be a member, it's such a responsibility and such a blessing. Let me talk about this. So Chris Jansen is in with us right now.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Chris Jansen, to be inducted on Tuesday of next week, March 20th into the Grand Ole Opry, you will be the opera's youngest living member at 31 years old. Who is this guy? Hey! Hey, so talk. So talk about the Grand Ole Opry for a second. And we have listeners that are listening as far as, you know, Bakersfield and Sacramento up to Boston.
Starting point is 00:33:25 And maybe they've never had a chance to learn about the Grand Ole Opry. So tell them about the Opry, just a brief little. Sure. Well, thank you. So, guys, it's the first place that country music was wildly made famous. Okay? There used to be lots of radio road shows. Another one was called Louisiana Hayride.
Starting point is 00:33:41 It's a place where Hank Williams, you know, was made publicly famous as far as on a big stage. The Grand Ole Opry was the home of country music, so it's called, and it was broadcasted through many different venues, including the Riemann and the Opry House now in Nashville, Tennessee, and a lot of different places, War Memorial, Municipal, all these things. But the bottom line is, it's a very small club, if you will, to be a member, and there's only like, you know, between 60 and 100, I believe. and it ranges all over the board from bluegrass to traditional country to mainstream modern day on the radio country to all kinds of things
Starting point is 00:34:19 from old curro medicine show to me to Blake Shelton to Garth Brooks to Alan Jackson to George Jones to Dolly Parton and it's a place where it's communal I mean we can all come there and we can share our talents and do what we do and play for a worldwide audience because it's broadcasted on 650 a.m.
Starting point is 00:34:37 Traditionally and always has been WSM and so it's a pretty, a neat thing. Not only are you playing on the radio, but you're playing live to an audience in the house, and it's super amazing. I mean, you don't know what kind of crowds you're going to get, and you have to be, you have to, it really teaches you entertainer skills, man. It really makes you hone in on what you do, and it makes you be better. And I think every artist could attest to that, because you're playing for people who, you know, maybe don't know you or, you know, from a different country or whatever. So it's pretty interesting. That's a funny thing you bring up,
Starting point is 00:35:05 which, by the way, Chris has played it over a hundred times, the opera. And he's going to be a member, He's invited. He's going to play a song in a second, too. We're going to do a little something here. But talking about, because I've been lucky enough to play the Opry five times now. Yep. And I'll do stand up at the Opry. And you talk about a crowd.
Starting point is 00:35:21 I have to be so on. I've heard you do it. It's hilarious. Well, no, because some of the crowd, they don't know me. Some of the crowd's not in the age group that I'm used to talking to. Yeah. You know, tourists from all over the world. Correct.
Starting point is 00:35:31 Sometimes they're 90. Yeah. And here I go out there, tell my jokes. And I really have, you're right. I think about that. You have to hit it so hard and accurately. It's all demographics, and you have to be able to entertain the youngest of young kids and the oldest of old people.
Starting point is 00:35:48 I mean, you know, that's the real thing. And everybody in between, but it's a huge blessing because I like that, because you're getting to learn how all kinds of people react to music, and it teaches you a lot. It's taught me a lot. And so, you know, that's one thing I've taken from it, just being a guest peer, you know, it's been pretty awesome. on the Bobby Bones show now.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Chris Jansen. This guy, Chris Jansen's here. Being inducted into the Opry on Tuesday, March 20th, he will be the Grand Ole Opry's youngest living member at 31 years old. He's played the opera over 100 times since making his debut in 2013, which, by the way, we just celebrated our five-year anniversary here in Nashville. You are our very first ever guest on the whole show. It's amazing, man.
Starting point is 00:36:31 Which is crazy how this whole thing worked out. Thank you, by the way. Just in general. Because our whole history of this thing has been to be. together. Yeah. Friendship. Real friendship. Crazy that you were. We didn't know you when you're our first guest. Inside and outside of business. I remember the first time I met all you all at the Hall of Fame. It was really amazing. Our press conference. Yeah, of course. I was like,
Starting point is 00:36:50 we got to get that crazy guy up to our studio to play. And we were just, we just thought you were really cool. We're like, man, we like this guy. And we liked this team. What a great, what a great crew. And oh, by the way, congratulations on your ACM win. That's amazing. Yeah, you're welcome very much to everybody in here. That's a big honor. So, you know, it's such a blessing to be winning, you know, in our job. It's such a blessing for you and for me and everybody else's like. It's awesome. We're trying to just stay up.
Starting point is 00:37:14 Hey, you know what? You're doing a great job, man. It's good to listen to. So, okay, Chris is here. So when you come in, you came in the first time, just total transparency, I said, hey, that Christianza guy, he looks like he's pretty fun, like has energy. I said, let's just bring him in and make sure the equipment works. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:30 Because that's what we did. We wanted to make sure that if someone came up play. We have a live performance. Yeah, we said, let's bring him into a live. performance, our very first ever performance. And Chris came in and played Better I Don't. Yeah. So, love that song.
Starting point is 00:37:41 How about a verse and a chorus of Better I Don't? The song he played when we started five years ago, Christian. Hey, it's Bobby Bones. Because illegal issues, we cannot play Christianson's musical performance on this podcast. But it is up at Bobbybones.com. Watch the YouTube video. It's really good. I just can't put it right here on the podcast.
Starting point is 00:38:01 So sorry about that. Appreciate that. I just wanted you to know. Mr. Bobby. Performance. That's it. The first song ever on our show that played live by that was the song. Thanks for the request on that one.
Starting point is 00:38:12 I'm proud to play it. So then I think, hold on, I saw online. Yes. Was that before? Because that was up before Buy Me a Boat was. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we, hang on. Because you played that, hang on.
Starting point is 00:38:23 Same thing. And I should know it because I've had you play it ten times on the show. Yeah, that's all good. Chris comes in and goes, hey, we did like a St. Jude week. And I said, hey, play hang on. And he came in and he played Hang on. And I requested it every year that he's come. back. Thanks, fan. And so if you don't mind verse and a course, I hang on.
Starting point is 00:38:41 The song is still good. I love it. Thank you very much. I'm also embarrassed. I called it the wrong name, but I don't care. It's the same thing. Hang on, hold on. Who cares? Well, so then it happened. Well, then Chris goes, hey, because at this time we had formed a relationship, a friendship. And he says, hey, I have a new song coming out. I don't ever listen to new songs before. And I sent it to Raymond, our audio producer, I said, hey, Chris Jansen, your record label had fallen apart. They went away. Yeah. And so he was unsigned, and I said, hey, Ray, if we have just 45 seconds, I want to play some of this Chris Jansen
Starting point is 00:39:10 song about a boat, because I think it's really good. Thank you. And so I played it, and our listeners embraced it, and then you became The On the Verge artist, and it's number one. It changed your life. I was glad you kept us for the ride. It changed our life as a show. Thank you, man. And so, here is
Starting point is 00:39:25 a verse and a chorus of, buy me a freaking boat. That's it, buddy. I remember going out with you. You were playing with Toby. We were playing. It was us, and then you and Toby in northern Virginia. And I was back and I someone goes, Chris wants you to come out and sing by me a bell with them. I was like, what? And so we went out and I sang it with you a little bit.
Starting point is 00:39:43 I just kind of mimed the words mostly. I don't want to ruin the song. But then we did it in Austin in the Frank Irwin Center in front of 13,000 people. We played and we brought you out and you were so good at the end of our said that people thought we were good. Like that was awesome. Come on. After Chris left, they were like, man, you guys were awesome. That's really smart of you, Bobby.
Starting point is 00:40:01 Oh, that's what I'm my whole life. Make the last chapter good. They think the whole book's good. That was an amazing time, man. Last night we played in Austin a couple nights ago, and it was incredible. And I thought about you the whole time, man. Austin Rodeo? Yeah, I played Austin Rodeo.
Starting point is 00:40:15 It was amazing. Those are our people, man. They are your people, and I mentioned it, and the crowd went wild. So it's so refreshing, man, to see your goodwill and your good spirit and everything that goes into this. It just reflects on people. It's such a very positive vibe. It makes it really nice. Well, then Chris puts out this record called Everybody.
Starting point is 00:40:33 I said, Chris, what's this mean? Who's this for? And he goes, well, it's for everybody. That's like, oh, okay. That makes sense. And the first song that comes out, is fix a drink, and it goes the number one. See, thankfully. The number, here we go again.
Starting point is 00:40:44 Another number one. Thanks, fan. Give some of that everybody. Fix a drink. Fix a drink. From the record, everybody. For everybody. Chris Jansen.

Starting point is 00:41:21 Not just because you're going to be a member of the Grand Ole Opry, because that's awesome, but because I know it means a lot to you. It does. Thank you very much. It means, I don't know, it's just a greatly humbling experience for me, and I couldn't be more grateful. I mean, truly, I'm just really proud to be a torchbearer for the opera. And I'm proud to be a guy who's being able to be on mainstream radio and have songs that people recognize and know, thanks to you, by the way, and to be on the opera as well.

Starting point is 00:42:44 Amy has this weird pimple popping fetish. It's not weird. So many people are into it. That doesn't mean it's normal. Okay. It's still weird. Amy will be, let me pop that pimple on you. And so forever she's wanted to pop a pimple on her son.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Well, anybody that lives in my house, I mean, that's super convenient. It. My husband's not into it at all. He's like, get away from my face. And he doesn't really get pimples. And for whatever reason, my son has had this little thing on his forehead for a while. And finally, You can pop it, please? Please? That's like music to my ears. Say it again. Say you can pop it. You can pop it. So, this is Amy's son, who's now finally allowing his mom to pop his pimple. Huh? Interesting.
Starting point is 00:43:33 I'm trying to pop it. So how to go? When it popped, I don't think it's a pimple. It was like this, and I couldn't get it. And I was like, does this hurt you? And he's like, no. And I would go even harder with my fingernail. And normally that's when my husband's like, stop it.
Starting point is 00:43:47 This is so painful on him. But my son, he doesn't feel the pain. So teenage years, kind of hope he has a little bit of acne. I'm like it a lot. So was it not a horrible? No, I mean, it was. It was some sort of like, yeah, blemish. And I finally got it to extract from the face.
Starting point is 00:44:02 And it just was like, oh. Hope everybody enjoys our breakfast. Yeah. Give me seven-year-old son. You can pop it. Okay. He's giving me permission to pop it. There you go.
Starting point is 00:44:13 Amy wanted it twice, too. Yeah, because. It's like a contract sign. Here, here, here. You can pop it. Say that again. You can pop it. Okay, I shall now proceed.

Starting point is 00:46:51 because he's at a wedding tomorrow. So that way I don't have to worry about the kids. So, yeah. Happy birthday. Thank you. You know what's funny about, and I don't know if it's, I guess it's funny because it's just not regular, but Amy's kids have been asked why their mom's white, right? Yes. Well, it first happened at school with my daughter and the teachers, they were, they even called us in to come meet with them because they wanted to make sure they were handling it okay.
Starting point is 00:47:15 But some of the students are asking. Like they ask your kids, like, why your parents are white? Yeah, why is your mom white? Why? Why is your mom? And so, uh, then we were in line at the grocery store and some kid saw, saw, you know, my son saying, mom, mom. And it's like, wait, why is your mom white? And then so I started to explain to the kid that we adopted and this is my son. And then the mom straight up like cut me
Starting point is 00:47:41 off. She goes, I'll explain everything to him when we get in the car. I was like, okay. All right, bye. It was sort of awkward. Like she didn't want me having that conversation with her kid, which I get, but I didn't feel like I was saying anything wrong. But I don't know if she was really into it, like the, thus not being this. I don't know if it was awkward. So I know that that's going to happen. Do you look at you weird? No, I really don't because I'm sure a long time ago people got certain looks or maybe if you go certain places you do, that encounter with that one, mom was a little weird because she don't want me talking to her kid. But no, so many have gone before. I feel like, and we live in an area where it's pretty diverse. So do your kids go, hey, mom and dad,
Starting point is 00:48:24 you're white and we're not? No. Because at the orphanage, they know the only people, really most people that are adopting them are white. They are not necessarily American. They're either from France or Canada or America, but they're white skinned. Does that bother you? Or is it still what happened yesterday? Or is it just a thing? No, it's just a thing.
Starting point is 00:48:43 But sometimes, you know, I have friends that have had worse experiences or weird looks or very odd comments. And I really haven't. That's probably the weirdest thing that's happened is that I was trying to talk to this woman's kid about. adoption and how beautiful it is. Amy's having a heart to heart with a seven-year-old. Listen, little Jimmy, sometimes in life when you're not able to have a baby. It's called infertility. Let me explain first. The kid's like, Mommy! She did. She was like, I got this. We'll talk about it when we get in the car. I was like, okay, bye. They were asking Chris Stapleton about his next album. And we all love Chris and like, hey, man, what's up the next album? Get that out. Chris is like,
Starting point is 00:49:21 hey, I need a minute. I like the creative process. And I like doing things. that I, just because I like to do them, I've got a few songs in some movies and, you know, some different collaborations with some people that are on the horizon. But as far as a project for me, I don't know what that next thing is, you know. It'll probably be a minute
Starting point is 00:49:41 because two records of a year is a lot. We're probably not going to be recording anything real soon. And you know what, I'm okay with that because he put out two records like he said in a year. Yeah, he doubled up. It's great. It's great.
Starting point is 00:49:56 So one of my favorite songs from my room volume two is this one here, Millionaire. I love this song. And that makes me a millionaire. That song's so good, right? Yeah. I don't know if my boss ever going to, because I just play songs sometimes. And they're like, yeah, we don't really have the research on that song yet. And I go, oh, you know me.
Starting point is 00:50:27 This Bobby and Bobby. Why don't you just say, let me do the research real quick. I like it. It's good. Let me research it in my brain real quick. It's so good. I can sing some Stapleton in my shower. Let's hear it.
Starting point is 00:50:48 I can even do it. It's shower only. Oh, you need that showers out. Oh, I need those acoustics because that sounds so good. By the way, thankfully, very appreciative to the listeners of the show and even to the community because we won the ACM for a radio show of Earth or, you know, it was a great award. Yeah. And I told Lunchbox he could prepare a speech, and if he read it to us,
Starting point is 00:51:11 today and we thought it was okay he could then read the speech at the ACM pre-ceremony. Yeah. So it can't go over 60 seconds or so. Oh, I need to put a time right. I didn't even time. I know by timing it. As long as long as it's not too long. It's, I think it's short, sweet to the point and I think it's very heartfelt.
Starting point is 00:51:30 Okay, ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the ACM for 2018 is the Ballybone Show. And up to present and accept the award is Lunchbox at the Bons Show. Yeah, lunchbox. Oh, man. Wow. Thank you so much. Wait, guys, can you guys come closer? It's hard to see you from way up here on top of the world, you know, dominating the world, part of the Bobby Bone Show.

Starting point is 00:54:38 68% of people say, girl, I was wrong. Yeah. Most people want you to have a girl. They say it would just be good karma if you had a girl. Why? Because you're always like, I don't want a boy. I don't think girls are cool. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:50 And finally, is a Cheeto a Chip? Oh, come on. Come on. 65% of people say a Cheeto is a chip. Yeah. Only because it's in the chip category. I agree. It's a puff or whatever you want to call it.

Starting point is 00:55:13 No, it's a chip. It's a chip. According to our listeners, those are our polls. Becca is looking for an honest man on The Bachelorette. I don't know if you guys want to care about that. Oh, yeah. They're starting that Bachelorette process because a friendish person of mine who is responsible for getting me on ABC, one of the heads of programming, he tweeted a picture
Starting point is 00:55:32 out of him at the Bachelorette compound where they're doing the Bachelorette. And he's standing up there with them and her. Really? Yeah, I think they're starting. starting in, I tweeted him, I said, hey, let me hop in that real quick. And he said, I got a limo waiting for you. Oh. I'm not going to do it.
Starting point is 00:55:44 Oh. I would get cuffing the Bachelorette so fast. Why? Can you imagine it's like, here's Jim. He's a trainer and attorney. He's 28. And Jim walks out, he's got his fresh haircut, his abs ripping out of his shirt. Here's Bobby Bones.
Starting point is 00:55:57 He's a radio DJ. He's 37. And that's all. I love you to a girl. He's a real relationship treat. Let's do a cutaway with some of his exes. Yeah. Would you talk to the girl?
Starting point is 00:56:10 It was fun while at... Did they go to X's like that? No, they would for me for sure. Oh, no, did that be terrible? What would be your thing when you got out of the limo and you went up to her? How would you approach her? Because some people come with riding in on a horse or... I'm sure they would want me to do something for what I do.
Starting point is 00:56:26 So I'd go and be like, hey, how old is it back to me playing 10 hits in a row here on radio basketball? We've got to call her 10. Are you in love with me? Something like that. You can bring a boom box and be like, this goes out to Becca. That's what they would want, something like that, I'm sure. Like it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:43 Craig Campbell put out a new song today. It's called See You Try. And I'd like to see you try. Pulling me out on the dance floor. Talking me into walking out of that back door, into the song, taking you home, getting it on. Yep. I'd like to see you try and tell my buddies where we're going.

Starting point is 00:57:35 Is the Casey Musgraves album The Space Cowboy Nice. It's good. So if we're looking for something to save or something to download, Craig Campbell's got See You Try and Casey Musgraves has Space Cowboy. She's so pure. Her voice and sound. It's really good.
Starting point is 00:58:11 The thing about the Casey is to say that the sky ain't blue. The thing about the Casey is, we were going to do a podcast on the Bobbycast and it was like, hey, let's set it up. I don't want to have her on until all our music's out. Because if I have her on and she only has two songs out now because the album comes in April, then I can't play all the rest of the songs
Starting point is 00:58:26 and talk about all the music. So I think we're going to hold off. But Red Aiken's came to the house last night, you know, that ain't my truck. And obviously Thomas's dad, Thomas Red's dad. It was fantastic. It's a Bobbycast that goes up next week
Starting point is 00:58:40 so you can search Bobbycast. Our show did one about our five-year anniversary. up now. So search Bobbycast on iHeartRadio or iTunes. But there you go, Space Cowboy and See You Try, two songs that you can save, and both songs to get the old bone of approval. Hey, by the way, Becca from The Bachelorette. She goes on Ellen. She says she's seeking a loyal partner. She wants a good honest man. That's what you look for after you're done with the Bachelorette, right? Because these dudes just want to be famous. You don't go on a TV show because you're trying to find real life love, because you don't put yourself in a situation for that
Starting point is 00:59:13 love to develop. Am I righter than this? Well, you think it's, okay, so there's 25, say there's 25 guys. You think there's not one of them that maybe really wants to find love? Okay, and then one of the odds is that works out and is that really love after you go on five dates, they're an hour over four weeks?
Starting point is 00:59:29 I know. There's a reason this stuff isn't working out for the most part. So dumb. But no, no, no, it's fun to watch. I know. And it's kind of in a resurgence. Yeah. For a while, nobody cared. Now it's kind of a thing. Regardless of what people tell you about how disgusting the last episode and finale and what they did was. It's not. It's TV show. They made a good TV show.
Starting point is 00:59:47 Everyone watched. But that's the goal. It's not church. Everyone's not watching to hear the spirit of the Lord. They're watching to see drama. And they got it. So stop being mad about what you were looking for anyway. Like everyone's like, oh, it's so disgusting. I can't believe you why are you watching the show anyway? Because you want to see drama. I mean, the show is like when you really break it down, the show is just that. It's every part of your real life that you like to gossip about, but you don't know enough about that's it. It's all there for you. And then you're going to get mad when it gets a little too gossipy? No, it's amazing. I don't even watch it, but still, I think it's fantastic TV. Over to Amy for the pile.

You know, I've been making my deodorant for a really long time and I read a new study this morning, the out of Australia that said that, yeah, health issues are linked to chemicals in their deodorant, migraines, asthma attacks, skin problems. Can I say that health issues are linked to every chemical that we don't even know exists around us? I know.
Starting point is 01:01:09 But I'm just saying this is when you apply directly to your skin every day and it oozes into your pores, so why not make your own? I will give you my recipe. Same thing with food. Why not grow your own? It's all the same. But we don't have time because we have to get home and play a Nintendo.

Ugh. Like, check the back seat before you get out. Yeah, I'm easier said than done, but yeah, no, I get it.

Oh, like, if someone leaves their purse, do you think they go through it? Hey, you know what's coming up. German from Ireland? he was in the studio and he was just watching and all of a sudden he could play great music since tomorrow

The main ways we change them are making them cleaner, helping their fashion sense and helping improve their diet and exercise habits. And I must say, I feel like, I mean, I made my husband better. You, when y'all have dated people, Eddie, lunchbox, what about you guys? I'm made better because there's a little more human that comes out of me because it has to be where they break up with me quicker. Yeah. So, okay.
Starting point is 01:03:22 You're better. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. My husband, I don't think, sometimes I wonder if he could get dressed without me. Yes, he can. He was in the military. He went to Air Force. Yeah, that's the thing. He wore a uniform every day. I know he can, Bobby, I know how.

My husband who served in war in Air Force Academy couldn't put on his shorts without me. No! I know he knows how to put on the actual clothing, but I mean, match things
Starting point is 01:03:47 because he wore a uniform for so long that I think he forgot how to match things. No, thank you. So luckily, I'm around. Luckily. Luckily. I mean, that's my file. That was Amy's pile of stories. Yeah, yeah.
