Go ahead. Just empty every pocket. I don't. Why would you want to do that? I think that you spend much money on all the accessories. Oh. Is that right, Mark? It's a love for the jeeps, man.

So what are you so ashamed of being a size 34? Oh, yes. I'm the show talking about how my pants size went down to get a size 30. You just doesn't feel very manly. Like, I want to be like a 34. I'll tell you what, Bobby. I got you beat. I'm not in a skinny competition.

I don't want to be in this competition. I want to lose. I want you to beat me. What are you? I'm a size 28. Wow. You're a wee-fills. Huh?

Depending on the pants, sometimes I have to go down to a boy size. You're a winner, brother. Wait, hold on. So is this by diet and exercise or just hereditary? Natural metabolism. Yeah. What are you height and weighting? I'm 5-8-125 pounds.

And finally, the CMT awards are tonight, 8, 7 Central on CMT, and CMA Fest starts tomorrow in Nashville, Tennessee, one day away. What did you order off TV? Oh, an air fryer. What's an air fryer? I've seen it.

Yes. It's so cool. How am I missing out on these? It's awesome, dude. How I have never even seen one of these, because I did more research online, and I was like, what? What? You can fry things with air and not oil.

So it's like, I'm about to make French fries, and they're going to be awesome and, like, healthy. How do you fry with air? I'll know. I'll tell you when I get it in the mail. There's a fan in there. No, there's a fan, and it goes really fast. and then it like heats it up and then bam next thing you know you open the drawer and your sweet potato fries or whatever you put in there ready to go yeah for the girl who will not put a microwave in her house no i i wondered about that but some of these healthy people i when i was doing research that i follow they have air friars so i'm just trusting that it's going to be okay and you ordered it from tv i saw it on tv and then i wanted it faster than tv would give it to me so i amazon primed it and it gets here today yeah i'm coming over yeah we're going to I'm going to use that thing.

I can't wait to see it. And I got, don't worry, I got the extra large, because I was thinking ahead. It was a little bit more expensive, but I'm about to have two kids. And I'm like, I got to be able to cook lots of things air fried. So I got to get the extra large. So smart. Even though that was one of the main complaints online is it takes up too much counterspace. I'm okay with that.

I have no idea what you guys are talking about and you're so excited. So now I'm excited too. And I don't know why. I'll bring you food from it. Okay. It's like the magical dispenser of awesomeness. This is not a commercial, by the way, because I don't know what it is. Yeah, I know.

The air fryer. Yeah. Interesting. Yeah, the infirmisher got me, but Amazon Prime wins because they're fast. I watched the infomercial for about 30 minutes. Really? Oh, yeah. All right, time for your positivity for Wednesday.

It's called Tell Me Something Good. These kayakers are out in their kayaks, and they get lost, and for four days they're lost. and the Minnesota State Patrol used their heat-seeking equipment. They had hundreds of search teams. They could find nothing. They could find nothing for these kayakers that were lost for four days. And by the way, they're in their 60s. So they're not a vibrant 20-year-olds like a hike to the wood.

So as they're flying over one day, they're like, what is that? I look down to the dirt. They had written SOS and the dirt, and that's how they found it because they were like, help SOS with a stick. Do you know what SOS stands for? No. Save our source. souls. What?

Really? That's morbid. That's deep. Well, hello. You're like, save me, save me. I wouldn't say that at church more than getting kayak rescued. Like, why don't people say that more? Listen, I don't know.

Father Johnson, SOS. Okay, cool. I feel like that should be used there. Amy. So some postal workers decided to shut down one of their mailboxes at the post office because these birds had a nest going on in there, and they didn't want to disrupt, you know, nature. So some people were like, wait, what's happening?

And then when they found out, oh, it's for some cute little birds, they were all fine with it. That's funny. Yeah. Watchbox. Last year, Maria was training for a triathlon and she was swimming off the coast of California, and she got, boom, bit by a nine-foot great white shark. Had trauma to her ribs and had to go through all this rehab. And a year later, she's fully recovered, and she's now volunteering at the trauma center that helped save her life. Wow.

I was watching this video online of these killer wells. You know they eat seals, right? Yeah. And this boat was in the water. And obviously this is another country. But these seals were running from the killer water that were jumping up into the boat, like scared. Wow.

It was amazing. That's cool. And then you would see the whales like, like, looking for the seals, like come up and go down. And the guys were like, you're good, buddies, you're good. And these seals were like in the boat, like scared to death. It just hopped up. It was crazy.

I got to look at this video. I saw it on Reddit. And so it's gone now. Oh, okay. But it was amazing. I didn't know sales even ate. We were eaten by whales. But yeah, there you go.

Anyway, that's a good story. Good story, good stories. There we go. Here's a question for you, Eddie. Did you have two kids? Yeah. They're out of school, right? They're out for the summer.

Did you get their teachers a gift? Ooh, no. That's the thing. Oh, no. Are we supposed to? Apparently, yes. We give them birthday gifts, and we give them, like, random, like, little gifts during the year, but not an end-of-school year gift.

Why do you give them a random gift? Sometimes, like, junior or junior, the kids will see something at the store and they'll be like, ooh, I want that for my teacher. Apparently, you're supposed to give them an end of the year gift. Did we do this as kids? No. No. See, right now, I live my life based on how I was raised and I'm finally realizing that's not really right because I didn't do a lot of things right. So I guess if that's the thing now, I guess I have to start doing it.

But it's too late now. Yeah, well, for the next year. Do you give them a beginning of school gift? No. I'm not knowing if it's right or not. But I would think they more gifts The better grades

Like they Like really It's just life That's life Like if you're treated better You treat people better Like if I came in every day And was like hey buddy

And I gave you a gift every day Would you like me more? I would think something's up No because you know me But If I came in every day And was like hey man I've been thinking about

You got you a little gift Or once a week Wouldn't you like me more? Be a big deal Yes I would like you a lot Huh So maybe this is a thing

Yeah I think it's a thing Not big gifts or anything Just small little nice trinkets. You know, cruise Jamaica. Okay. That's unfair that you say that you would think something up. I buy you good gifts. No, every day, yes, I would think so.

Oh, my gosh. Dude, you hooked it up in my birthday. Four pizzas. Four pizza huts, Legos for my kids, and bottle of wine for my wife. I was gone. I sent them special delivery from the road. Yes. Got you a driver, a golf driver one year?

Oh, I still use it. And he insults me like, I would think something was up. Well, you did to be fair. You guys make it sound like I'm... Amy's saying something, to be fair. To be fair, you said if I showed up every day with a gift. That would be weird. Now you're talking to his birthday.

That would be very weird. What if every day was your birthday? I would love that. Well, that would also be weird. You were born every day. I'll be in Fort Wayne coming up. And Baton Rouge, by the way, if you want to come to my stand-up comedy show, Bobby Bonescom.

Just a couple weeks away from starting the second leg of the tour. So if you're in Fort Wayne, Indiana, anywhere near, we'd love to see you. Bobby Bones show. Bonehead. up the day. This story comes to us from Flint, Michigan. A 44-year-old woman wanted to do some remodeling at her house.

She had family coming to visit. She's like, I need some new decorations, but I don't have a very big budget. So where can I get some goods for free? Oh, well, let me guess. Oh, there are two guesses. She had to steal them, right? She had to steal them. Did she go to a, like a cemetery, I wonder?

Because people do that. Or did she go to, like, the outside of somebody else's house next door and just put them in her house? Those are my two guesses. Lunchbox hit me with it. She stole over a hundred items from two different cemeteries around town. Why, why, why? Oh, man. So, yeah, she got busted on surveillance video, rested, and they recovered all hundred items.

And years of forgetting, she's probably going to be haunted now. Yeah. By the people she stole from. You don't mess with them. I'm Lunchbox. That's your Bonehead Story of the next. Nailed it. That's how good about today.

Bobby Bones. Bobby Bones show. Amy, how's your leg? It's doing much better. I've been icing, elevating, compressing. Well, I was dancing, and I pulled my calf, strained it, whatever. Level 1 strain from what I can diagnose myself with. Oh, boy.

So you have a level one calf strain. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I've been nursing it. Yes, it's my workout from time to time. It's dancing. Which workout specifically? Tracy Anderson method. dance and sometimes I dance by myself, sometimes girlfriends come over, whatever, it's a 30-minute

DVD and you dance and I, she has those songs on there, they're horrible, plus I'm so used to it that I have my own playlist that I bust out from time to time and Bruno Mars 24-carry came on. Wait, let me get the straight. You don't go with the music from the DVD. No, because, you know, it gets stale. You mute it. Yes, and I put on my own playlist, either put on my own playlist or I-Hard Radio Spin Cycle remix or something like that. So you're dancing. Yeah, and I'm just kind of doing my thing, and then Bruton Mars comes on. Any time a good song where I'm just, like, really feeling it comes on,

and I step up my game, but a little bit too much to where I don't know if I stretch properly or not enough. And they say, you know, I'm only 19 minutes and 30 seconds into my routine, and it's 30 minutes long. And I have to stop. I have to stop. I can't do anymore. And then I'm limping the rest of the day. Did you go down? I went down.

You fell? And the first thing I did was gotten downward dog and started stretching my calf. Then I got my foam roller and I started rolling it out. Then I got on the internet. First thing I read, do not stretch or roll it right away. And that's exactly what I did. And I was like, great. I made it worse.

So then I followed instructions on the internet, and I'm in nursing it, and it's doing much better. Time marches on? Yeah. Couldn't even dance for 30 minutes. Oh, no. You can try dance today? Come out of retirement? Maybe.

I'm a little scared. I don't want to, I got to, you need to let it heal and then go back in because the last thing I want to do is get another level one again. Oh, not another level one. Oh, no. Yeah. You eat a meat still? Not as much as I was, but I mean, I'm still open to it. I'm not closed off.

My body was really craving it at one point, and now I'm just like, you know what? If I feel it, I feel it. I'm not labeling myself. I'm not a vegetarian, not a vegan, not a meat eater. I'm just, I eat food. Lots of veggies, though. Will you eat red meat? I've never really liked red meat, remember, because of my underbite.

I like a hamburger maybe, but it just depends. but like steak as a kid So my dad Loved cooking steak Gilling steak But as a kid he would serve it And I would have to eat it And my underbite wouldn't let me chew it up all the way

Like a little bulldog, you know And so my parents I didn't want my dad to think I didn't like his food So I would not be able to chew it And I would spit it out and hide it under the table And then finally they realized I was doing it And then they realized I had an underbite Too late at that point

I'm scarred from basically eating red meat Do you still have underbite? No I got they got me a retainer Oh I was going to say I don't see a bulldog anymore No, they fixed it eventually But it was one of those things where it's just like I kind of just have a weird thing about I never ever crave a steak

It's just I'm not into it Interesting And I'm assuming that's why Yeah Let's go Abrana Yes What's up?

Hello I'm glad you call What can it help you with I'm at your service So I was just calling to see If Amy ever found out of her neighbor is one of the Osborne brothers, Brother Osborne band. The Brothers Osborne, yes, it's.

So what happened was Amy had a friend over, and you don't stay in your guest room because you're not a guest at your own house. No, and it's upstairs, and it overlooks my neighbor's backyard. So she sees Brothers Osborne hanging out. Yeah, and she tells me, I think Brothers Osborne's your neighbor. I'm like, shut up, no. That's how he said it, shout up.

I was like, I would know that. I've lived here like a year. I would know who my neighbors are. So I texted out. Yeah. And, yeah, Amy lives next door. brother's Osborne. Yeah.

Wow. One of them, but they hang out together all the time. They really are close. Yeah. I mean, they're brothers. Yeah. Yeah, so it's kind of cool, huh? Look at Amy with all the, she sees them at the grocery store.

What are you talking about I don't know I was watching The Preds game of the night And I saw the Budweiser Commercial come on Oh yeah That you're on

Yeah And it's like shows all these normal people Then it shows you I guess my question is, do you get a ton of free beer now? A ton of free beer. Like, wherever you go, are they part of the tour? Yeah. I mean, not like on the fairs and festivals during the summer,

but like some of them are actually Budweiser event. God, Budweiser is sponsored festivals. Is that so much money to do one of those commercials where they usually... No, I mean... Yeah, it is, right? It is, right? It's good. It's good. Hopefully it helps my...

I like how I goes, no, and I go, yeah, it is. Yeah, it is. Come on. I'm such... I don't know. I am. You know, children go through college. Man, they put your Instagram name up there too.

Tom's right, everybody. Thank you very much. So yesterday we talked to a lot of artists. We'll play a lot of those back. There's old T. Ret. We'll see him tonight. Let's see. I drove my Jeep to work today, right?

And so I'm driving in about, I don't know, block down the road. I started going, it's freezing outside. It's kind of cold. I don't even know what the degrees are. I got to find that fine line of the degrees. Because, you should. Yeah, when I should not drive. It's 57 right now where we are.

Okay. And I'm telling you, I got about three blocks down. And I don't have a top or doors on because, you know, manly now. And I was like, oh, it's cold. Yeah. Then I drive up to the Starbucks window, and it's totally awkward because it makes like I'm standing at the window. Because I have no doors and no top.

Your legs are exposed. And I'm at the window. And I, she was. walked through, she goes, hey, I got, I'm just like standing there. I'm sitting in my truck, but it's like I'm standing there. And she's like, here's your drink. And it's like, we can high five, we can low five, we can do all that, we give each other a hug. Yeah. So that's kind of awkward. But I'm getting used to it. I drove in and Eddie was like, man, look at that Jeep. And I was like, yeah. I said, I'm pretty man. Then I dropped everything in my arms.

He said, will you hold the door for me, please? Drop everything. And then I get inside, and Amy comes in and goes, hey, I need your keys. I was like, oh, I want to take the Jeep for a ride. She goes, He left your lights on. I was like, oh, come on. This whole thing. But then I didn't even need his keys because all you used to do is just go up to it and turn it off. If he has any change in the console, you can take that too. Take it all.

Which leads me to this question because they can lock my glove box, right? Yes. And I'm out there. I'm vulnerable. I'm open. Why do people not just steal it? The car? Yeah.

They stole mine. I had a Jeep growing up and they stole it. So it'll happen, bones. What do they have to hot wire it? Dude, buy one of those, remember those old clubs? You put on the stairs wheel? That'll keep it for me and stole. Like my real question, though, like, it's so vulnerable to sitting out anywhere.

Yeah. Why aren't people stealing it? Why are people, like, slashing the seats? Why aren't people stealing the seats? I think all of this is possible. Why aren't they stealing, like, the little GPS screen? You have a GPS screen? Yeah, a little one.

Oh, man. That's what I'm saying. Like, I wouldn't, I mean, I wouldn't steal it myself, but I would see what people would steal it. Yeah. So it's all these things running through my head right now. I just say, you know. I drove this morning, freezing my butt off. I haven't had long.

I put on the long. I put on long sleeves. It's like, it might be a little chilly this morning. Put on long sleeves. It's like icicles. It's like dumb and dumber. We're riding the moped. And they peeds and they're stuck together.

You remember that scene? Of course. No, no, no, whatever. Show. I want to put our listeners on pre-notice right now. 50 minutes away, Kelsey Ballerini will be in. It will be live. And we will world premiere her new song.

Never been heard before. Only by me. Only by these ears. Oh, wow. Yeah, it's called Legends. That's all I'm giving you right now. Yeah, no, that's it. My Kelsey Ballerini will come in.

World premiere the new song. And then, you can't even buy it right now. You can buy it from me. You want to Venmo me, maybe? I don't know. 2G. Okay. I get you that one hour exclusive.

Kelsey Ballerini in studio to world premiere this song. That's enough for now. That's enough for now. But she's coming in next hour, about 20 after her. So that's your pre-notice. Okay. Then I give you a notice, and then we'll do it. All right?

I was reading this story, and this is a crazy story. So, this guy from the Packers gets stranded at the airport in Minnesota, and he had to be back in Green Bay the next morning. Okay, place with Packers, got to be back in Green Bay. Well, yeah. He tweeted out. He's like, hey, I'm stranded. Two Packer fans picked him up at the airport in Minnesota and drove him eight hours to Green Bay.

How crazy is that? And so, like, he, yeah, they got lucky, and then he trusted them? Yeah. they show up with cheesehead on, I'm getting in the car too. Be honest with you there. That's awesome. I mean, a pretty cool memory for them. Twitter sometimes does some amazing things.

And I think in my life now, Twitter is used as my information source. Yeah. Twitter and the B team. Those are people I talk to on Twitter for the most point. Information. And then the people that are like that I call the B team. In life, like, we're secondary. We never got first picked.

And B also stands for Bobby. So it's also like the listeners that I really like trust and they're always there for me. So I do that. I'm going to tell you about this Twitter. They saved my dog once. I was in Las Vegas working one time, and my dog got out. And I got on Twitter, and I tweeted out, my dog's gone. Can somebody find them?

My neighbor from a couple of houses down went and found my dog because it's on my tweet. Now, did I get drove to the airport eight hours? Nope. Even better, they saved my dog. Yeah. There was a story I tweeted on the news last night. These guys went into the house. Did you guys see it?

I saw it. Oh, my goodness. The door was unlocked. It was just a random house they went into with guns. Like, I think they, like, pistol whip the person and stole their puppy. What? And then left. Why?

So I don't think it was a random house. I think they were going for the puppy. Like, I think they went there knowing. It's weird they went for the puppy, and that's it. But the door was unlocked. But again, I think it was, like, in the evening. I don't think it was like one in the morning. Right.

But they went and stole the puppy. What's the deal with the puppy? I don't know. Like, Noel Newton from the news posted it, and she showed me a picture of the puppy. You said puppy? I didn't see the puppy. It wasn't. a crazy breed or anything?

I don't know if it is. They went in with guns, I think, beat up to people and then stole the dog. Wow. Now, I had my house broken into two and everything stolen once. They busts everything. Like, they just stole everything. And I went home and I was like, oh, my goodness. And I was like, please don't help them steal my dog.

Wednesday wisdom If you're getting robbed. Yeah, it is now. If someone comes up to you and they like have a gun or they're going to mug you or whatever, just give them your stuff. Because it's not worth the 1% chance

they're going to shoot you. Stuff can be gotten back. Like they took all kind of stuff like stuff on mine. It didn't matter. It was just stuff. And so they didn't tell my dog. It's what mattered to me. My dog's still with me.

14 years old. Someone comes into your house and they take your stuff. And they took, I went skydiving and they took my DVD and me jumping out of the plane. Your DVD was inside your Xbox. Yeah. And they took it. Let me give you Wednesday wisdom. Wednesday wisdom.

Stuff doesn't matter that much. What matters are the things that you love and the relationships that you have. That's what matters in life. It doesn't have to be tangible. You love it. To cherish it. And that's a little bit of Wednesday wisdom. Wednesday wisdom.

My clip's still playing. Yeah. Go ahead. Is it still smart? Because sometimes I've thought if someone wants my bag, like, it's fine, you can have my bag. Take my purse, take my wallet, whatever. Don't take it. Take it.

Like, take it. But just can you give me my driver's license back? No, no, no. They have to steal your identity, too. No, no, no, I just don't want to go to the DMV. Yeah, I don't think you'd be playing pick and choice. Hold on, so before you go, I got a packet of gum in the bottom of that. Can I get a...

Take whatever you want. Just please don't make me go to the DMV. Don't take the license. Do, nah, nah, nah. Okay, there you go. That is quite the deep segment. A little bit of Wednesday wisdom there. Wednesday wisdom.

There it is. This is a Bobby Bones show. Bobby Bones. Okay, so apparently I'm old school. I was like, hey, I need some Bingay. Yeah, I hadn't heard that in a long time. Apparently that's not really a thing, huh? Is it being gay still a thing?

It makes me a lot. Oh, well, Mike D. ran and got me some icy hives. That's kind of the go-to now. Yeah. Do you want to put it? Can you put it on my arm or do I need to do it? I just want to push you. You don't want to touch it?

No. I'll do it. It's not like you have a disease on your arm. I would do it. No, I know. I'm just, my arm is killing me. So is it from boxing? Yeah.

Oh. Like hardcore. Like I can't even move my. That's good though. You're getting those accessory muscles. But no, I work out five times a week. You're getting different muscles that you work out. This boxing trainer of mine is hardcore, man.

He put on that body thing where you punch him in the body. Oh. You know that padding thing? You wear it. It looks like you're getting in the Humpty Dumpty Dumpty. suit. He puts on the hump, down to suit,

and you just beat the crab out of him? You just go to town? I need to do that, like, about, yeah, once a month. How can I do that? You go pay him. I would pay him to let me do that. Oh, stuff stinks, right?

Like, it smells like... It smells like a mixture of ice and heat, I'd say, if I did. Like, something icy and hot. Let me lick it. All right, so I'm icy hotting my body right now. Kelsey Ballorini will be in. She has a brand new song.

You haven't even heard it yet because it's not even up. Won't even be out for another hour in 10 minutes. It's called Legends. It's a world premiere for her. That's all. I'm only giving you a little piece of it. Okay.

Like if there were the piece, like if there was a whole pie I was going to give you. It's coming up in like 30 minutes. That'd be me just thumping some crust at you. That's mean. Yeah. How about a little more crust? That's it.

That's almost a bite. That's all you're going to hear right now. Nope. That's it. Hello, you're on the air. Kayla in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Thank you very much for calling. Yeah.

Hey, good morning. Good morning to you. What would you like to say? I was just going to tell you all about my break-in story that was unsettling. What happened with you? Well, me and my fiance had just bought a house and I lived there by myself, and I left to go to the gym at about five that morning and didn't get home until 8 o'clock that night from work. And I had a really bad feeling when I left the house that morning. I don't know what it was.

I don't know. I don't know. Anyways. It just had a really bad feeling. And so I got home and noticed that our garage door was open and all of our lights were on. And I was like, oh, gosh. So just a few select people have a key to our house. So I called my fiance and was like, hey, have you been to our house today?

And he goes, no, why? And I said, well, our garage doors open and all of our lights are on. See, what? So did they go and take everything? Well, they really didn't take. So they took our TV that was in our living room. and they took some tools out of our garage. What else did they take?

It sounds like they got the big stuff that cost the most money. And listen, when people break into house, they're not looking for conversation. They're really not. But they will, because you don't know what's going on in their mind if you confront them. How some people get shot? I was like, take the tools, take the TV.

You know what? Take my coffee table too. Take anything? Okay, well, we'll do the song again. Here we go. Hey, Kayla, I appreciate you. Thank you. I appreciate you. Glad you called. It stinks, though. It's a feeling, too, like you've been violated.

You don't even know until you walk in. You're like, somebody's been through all my stuff. Imagine somebody got your cell phone and went through every text message and every email without you knowing it. Just read every single thing. Yeah. And really, is there anything in there? Not really. But it would be like, dang, you just went all up in my underwear drawer. Violated. With your face. That's what it feels like.

Like, you just took your face and went all through my underwear drawer. Yeah, completely violated. I appreciate everybody. Appreciate you. I appreciate you for just being here. I would like to say that on Friday's show, we're putting out our Stars and Stripes line of Pimp and Joy stuff, and we're doing it for City of Hope, which helps fight and look up research for cancer and diabetes.

called Legends It ain't even out yet Record doesn't even exist yet First time you hear it in like 24 minutes Start the ticker 23 minutes in 53 seconds as of till writing it. Wait, what? Whatever.

The latest from Nashville in Hollywood. Amy's 30 second skinny. Brantley Gilbert and his wife, Amber, they did a gender reveal party that included a food truck, a rifle, and 40 guests. I was going to ask how he did it. Yeah. So the reveal was made by Brantley

firing the rifle at a target and it expelled the dust, you know, when it hit the target and they're having a boy, so it was blue dust. That's very Brantley. I know. I want to shoot gun and then I want it to come out the color of my baby. I got an idea. I want to do a gender reveal where I put on some brass knuckles.

On those knuckles, there's some pattern. And if it bust on somebody's face and it's blue, it's a boy. If I punch somebody in the face and it turns out pink, it's a girl, let's go to the bar. Like, or that. Or that. That would have been a girl, too. Then he goes and fight somebody and whichever way it bust. Anybody in here ever watch Cash Cab?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. They like that. It's so good. It's coming back. Yeah. Yeah. Wait, don't act like your dad excited. I mean, I used to love watching that on TV.

You can't find it anymore. Yeah, no. Online, like, people seem really excited. Will they make it now? That's awesome. You guys ever watch Friends? Yeah. They don't make them anymore.

Well, but Friends isn't coming back. Cash Cab is with host Ben Bailey, whoever that is. Yeah. I'm Amy. That's your 30 Second Skinny. Don't make fun of Ben Bailey, okay? I don't know him. Me either.

Never heard of him. But I have a feeling this happens to, because like tonight I'm on the CMT Awards. Yeah. And they put out this press release. It's like Ashton Coucher, Jada Pinkett Smith, Bobby Bones. I feel like I get Ben Bailey by everybody. And they're like, oh, Bob. So I feel bad for Ben Bailey.

Because I know what it's like. Ben Bailey is the guy that drives the cash cap. He's the driver. Oh, he's the original host. There you go. Ben Bailey. Lunchbox, the super fan, he knows. Don't be it.

Lunchbox likes that show Crash Car, too. What's it called? No. That was... Bake car. Bake car. That's where they would set up the car with the keys in it and leave it in the neighborhood and watch people go and steal it and they're like, yeah, yeah, and they go pick up their friends.

Look, we got a car, we got a car. And then they're like, shut it down. It goes, boosh. And it locks the doors. They're like, no, no, no. And they try to get out of the car and they get busted. And it's called Bate car. It is so good.

Love it, love it, love it. Bate car. Oh, man, that's some good TV. Did you guys watch the Jerry Seinfeld dissing Keshah? I just read about it. What happened? Okay. So we all know Jerry Seinfeld.

Yes. What's the deal with peanuts? Is it a B or is it a nut? Right? We all know Keshah. So Jerry Seinfeld standing on a red carpet being interviewed. And so he's talking and Kesha comes out of nowhere. Can I hug you?

Jerry Seinfeld's not a toucher. He's a German. Listen, I get it. I don't like touching either. She's like, can I hug you? And he goes, no. No, no. And then she thinks he's playing and tries to hug him. He's like, no, and he basically runs away from her. Like three or four times, right? It's so awkward.

Because people are tired most of the time. I love you so much. Oh, thanks. Can't give you hug? No, thanks. No, thanks. A little one. Yeah, no thanks. And now he's like dodging her, right? Oh, my goodness.

He's like moving his body to dodge her. And now it's awkward. I don't know who that was. You know, it was Kesha. Okay. Well, I wish for the best. Here's the thing with hugging. Let me just get away from, like, you don't want to touch. Okay, good.

Here's the thing with hugging. Let's stop hugging one, people we see every day. We're making hugs less important. Don't we understand this? Like, hugs don't mean as much anymore because everybody's hugging everybody all time. Like, let's say we're here in the daytime. All of a sudden, I run into somebody from the office at work. They're like, oh, let me give you a hug.

I don't need a, we just saw each other seven hours ago. Okay? Secondly, let's not hug people we don't really know. Because it's like, oh, it's nice to meet you. hug. That's a fake hug. We're making the real hugs less important. Who are we... Who are we supposed to hug?

People that... You're genuinely excited to see and share this moment of intimacy. Not love like dirty intimacy or not even love like... Dirty and stuff. You know what I mean? Dirty hug.

Like if I haven't seen Eddie in three months and I'm like, oh my goodness, it's so good to see you. We should save those. We should save a hug. Do you hug your girlfriend? Not every time. No. Every time I see her, no.

What's the use? I see her all time. I like to save the hugs for like if she gets back after like five days or so. It's like, good to see you. I have a question for you. Go ahead. If there are two people coming up to you and one, you know really well and you give them a hug. And then what do you do with the second one?

You have to hug the first one. You have to. You can't just be like, hey, wave. Don't hug the first one. Oh. So what do you do? I don't think hugs are more important. I mean, I think hugs are of the utmost importance.

Let's stop hugging everybody. You just don't hand out hugs? Don't hand out hugs. Do we hand out kisses? No. No, but hugging's different. I hug. But when you give me a real hug, it doesn't seem as legit because you've been hugging me

for four days straight. Maybe you need more hugs. Sometimes you say hi, you hug. Do you, so like when a woman comes up to you, do you shake their hand? Like, I feel weird shaking a woman's hand. I'm always about the hug on the women. Like, I feel like it's more appropriate to hug instead of shake their hand. I think shaking hands is more of a guy thing.

Oh, yeah. I think hug should be used in situations. where a hug means something. And when you use it when it's not, it starts to get watered down. I take hugs from you more meaningful. Absolutely, because I don't pass out hugs.

Yeah, it's not like... Hugs are currency to me. So I'd like to get a banana and a protein shake over here. Let me get some gum. That'd be $3.97. How about two hugs?

Works every time. I'm like, wow. Okay. Two hugs? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm with Jerry Seinfeld on this. He just didn't want hugs. He didn't want touch.

And some people are germy and don't want it to be touched. I don't think he's being a jerk. He just doesn't, that doesn't matter. People hug all people don't know all the time. Anyway, that's all. Ran over. Bobby Bones, everybody. Transmitting across America.

This show. Do you see Ryan Seacrest tweet me last night? No? What did he tweet you about? Yeah, pretty funny, huh? That was awesome. I know Ryan a little bit, so we're both up for the National Radio Hall of Fame. And now my tweet was.

It was, hey, it's crazy to be nominated for the Hall of Fame because I probably shouldn't get in. So it's like, but we're all against Ryan Seacrest, so we're not going to get in. And he retweeted me and said, say, what if we just say Bobby C. Ryan, what was it? Yeah, it's Bobby Seacrest. What if we call ourselves Bobby Seacrest and we both get in? And I was like, okay, that works.

That's funny. Yeah, but he's got like millions of followers and a Kelly Ripa TV show. Yeah. Like, the listeners are coming through like crazy. for me, more than I would have ever expected because really, who cares? I care, but I don't expect listeners to care. But they've been voting for me like crazy, which is awesome.

I didn't think it would happen like that, but Rancicry's got millions of followers. And I thought it was funny he tweeted me. Yeah, Mr. Bobby Bones to see it. Ten minutes away from Kelsey Ballerini being in here. World premiere for her new song, Legend. She can't even buy it, can't hear it. I got it. That's it. I know it.

Oh, my. Do you want a little bit more? A little bit more? Yeah, tough. Okay. All right. Wow. What?

A little bit more? Nothing? Yeah. That's called a K-T's. Hmm. It's a little Kelsey tease. Oh. Yeah, that's cool.

There it is. That's all I get. New Kelsey Ballerini. I was playing this clip of Jerry Seinfeld. Kesha comes up to him on the red carpet and wants to hug him. He's like, no, no, no, no hugs. He's a guy doesn't like to be touched. He's a germapope even.

He's like, no, no, no, no hugs, please. I'm good And it's really awkward It's so awkward But it's funny And you know what At least he is being honest He just didn't want to be hugged

Yeah So I was talking about hugs And I was like You know I think we hug too much If it's a real genuine hug Hug away But I think we hug for no reason

So it makes the real hugs Meanless Okay Karen in Oklahoma You're on the air Sir I agree I think hugs Are a true emotional feeling

of happiness and good to see. Now I hug my family, kids, grandkids, but you're right. All this hugging is, it's like, mm-mm, no touchy. The huggy that's a little too muchy, it's like a participation trophy to me. It's like everybody gets them on.

And I don't like participation trophies, and I don't like hugs for no reason. Wow. Like, do we get to go to work and get a paycheck for no reason? No, we work for it. Some people. Well, I think all the people will look at you when you do that.

No, no, I'm not saying in our job. Oh, oh, oh, oh. I wouldn't say anybody here. I'm saying at other jobs. I see people I'm like, they don't do anything. Wow, I'm going to have to really start evaluating my hugs. I love hugs. You do?

Of course, when they mean it. I don't water them down. Karen, I appreciate you. Hey, Bobby Bones. I appreciate you for all you do. Thank you very much. And there's music. Wow.

That was cool. Kelsey Ballerini ended about two minutes with this world premiere. Lori in Sarasota, Florida. Hey, Lori. Hey, what's up? You're on the air. What's happening? Oh, not a whole lot.

I'm just driving home from the gym. And I just wanted to let you guys know. I had a job interview last week, and I played a Seven Nation Army on my way to the job interview. And I got it. That's up talking about it. That's right. That's the song. It gets you pumped up, but calms you down.

And you're like, how does that work? It focuses your mind. You think to yourself, I can do this. I hear this music. I can do this. Yet, to be focused, to be calm, your heart rate has got to be at a normal level. Like, the heart rate's where it is. You can get your heart rate to stay down.

Good point. While taking that focus and turning it up, and it's a counterproductive thing. How do you turn your focus up but keep your heart rate down? By listening to this song, that's how. So you nailed it, huh? What was the key? Lori, what was the key? I've been at my current job.

I'm a bartender, and I've been there seven years. It's been a long time since I interviewed, and I figured I wanted to do something I really loved, and I'm going to be now working with dogs all day. That's not talking about. I love dogs. That's right. Hey, congratulations. I appreciate you. Thank you very much.

Thanks. In any pressure situation, it's all about the heart rate. Let me, let me give you a little Wednesday wisdom. Wednesday wisdom. In any situation where things aren't the same and you've got to perform at a higher level, it's all about the heart rate. If you can keep your heart rate at a level, you can perform at that exact same level. Choking is playing worse when the pressure is higher.

Choking isn't playing worse When the pressure's the same That's just a bad day We all have bad days Choking is when The stakes are a little higher And you play worse than normal Because the stakes are higher

You gotta get your mind and your body To do that same spot You gotta keep the heart rate down When your heart rate's up It's like this And you can't really focus Because this is happening Just a little bit of Wednesday wisdom

Wednesday wisdom Now I'd be dropping knowledge bombs on you Did you? Not all day Wednesday Well that's Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday Wisdom Day We're going to bring Kelsey Ballerini in here. Hey, you got to move your stuff, dude.

Oh, is she coming in now? Yeah. Oh, man. You got to tell me, dude. Kelsey Ballerini is coming in. So, yeah, bring it on in here. Good morning to you, and thank you for letting us come into your lives today. If it's on the Iheart radio app, if it's on the radio.

Hey, Kelsey Baller, we're on the radio. Come on in. Come on here. Come on here. Sit right there. Okay. Now I'm going to tell you something. This is a little more exciting than normal.

It is. Because, listen, we're always happy to see it. And I think you've been on the show more than. anybody else. I've been here a lot. We've spent many days, many years together. We have. We have. But I do think this is probably, even maybe more so than your first ever single. It feels a lot like that. And why it's so big is because... It's first single from like next record. It's like beginning of chapter two. And when you did your first record, you kind of didn't know what you were getting into. No. He just made a bunch of great music and you didn't know if it's going to be on a

record or somebody else was going to cut it. Yeah. I made most of the record before I even had a record deal. so I didn't know really what I was doing except writing songs. Kelsey Ballerini is here. I got a little nervous energy here too. Oh. This is good. My heart is pounding. You know why people get nervous?

Because it matters. Oh, yeah. Absolutely. They say that this is like the most important thing you'll ever put out. I love it that you can't even talk to you're nervous. That means it matters. I love it. I love it.

I thought I like here. All right, Kelsey's here. So I just want to get right to the song and we can talk about it after. Okay. So this is the first time this has been played. What is the name of this song? It's called Legends. Okay.

And why is it called? Just tell me something. Give me, drop some nuggets on me. Okay, so it's called Legends, and it's one of the first songs I wrote for the record. I wrote it like two years ago. And the reason I love it so much is because I wrote it from the perspective of a breakup, and it was kind of nostalgic over that breakup. But now, every time I listen to it, it kind of feels like my relationship now.

It's kind of like this love story that can be about a love that's lost or someone that you've lost in some way, or just someone that you look back on fondly that you're still with. And, which I didn't even realize this, but when I was listening to it this week, it kind of is about, like, fans, too. Like artists, their relationship with their fans, because it's a very, like, it's a true love and it's something that you fight for and you show up for. And so it's kind of for fans, too. So it's like a bunch of different levels. Man, who's ready for a world premiere?

Ready. Even Kelsey's ready for a world premiere. Well, I've been teasing us with, like, a one little one-second clip of it, so we're definitely ready to get it. You haven't heard it yet? No. Oh. Only me and I wouldn't share. He would be like, here's a little clip, and it'd be like, la.

Okay, that's all you get to hear. How about that? Do you like it? Yes. I do. I like it a lot. And I'm going to say, I like it a lot. And I want to say this, too, that, you know how when you've been in a relationship for a while, you don't have to talk?

Yeah. During that song, we all just shut up and listen to the song. And with a lot of us, you have to, like, do small talk, like, hey, do your shoes. See that cloud yesterday? We just all listen to the song together. I'm really happy for you. Thank you. Thanks for playing it. And so in like three, hey, three minutes it goes up. Is that right?

Three minutes you can download it. I hope everybody downloads it and pays money for it and streams it. That's awesome. Thank you. And are you performing it tonight? I am. I am. Oh, I just heard. Do you see that business is presenting you tonight at CMT? No. Do you know who it? No. Oh, wait. She doesn't know.

She doesn't know. She doesn't know. Who? Who? What? You're going to freak out. Do you not know who's presenting you? No. It's like a big deal. Is it? Oh my goodness. I can't believe you don't know. Guys, ha! She doesn't know. Can you tell me? Don't tell her. Don't tell her. I am so filled with anxiety on everything else. Who's the biggest person that you think it is?

Who's the biggest person that you would like to present you tonight at the CMT Awards? In what aspect? You're going to perform, but who's like saying? Garth Brooks. No, even bigger. Than Garth Brooks? Yeah, even bigger. Is he a singer? Tonight at the CMT Awards. Who do you think is presenting you? Bigger than Garth, I don't know what to do.

He's like singer, actor. Oh, yeah, does it at all. He's like a triple threat. Yeah. Come on. I need a hint. One more. Sing, acts, like.

Country? Yeah. Tim McGraw? No, bigger. Dances. Yeah. Dances. Really good looking.

Super funny. You? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You are hilarious. Get out of here. Kelsey Ballerini just left the studio. We World premiered her song Legends.

Yeah, we've known. She just left. I posted on my Instagram of a video of her listening to her song for the first time on the radio, which I like. Like, guys, I'm telling you, artists who've had 10 songs on the radio, it's still a thing when they hear their song on the real radio the first time. It's still a thing. And it's an awesome thing to be able to sit here and watch.

And so gave her a big old hug whenever she left. But to be fair, well, go ahead. Go ahead. Yep. You hugged her. I did. And I would like to say, after our hugging conversation, that was a hug on purpose. because of all the artists in all the years.

Kelsey's, you know, we have a few that we're really close to. And this is a big deal for her. First song off a new record that doesn't even exist yet. And I gave her a big old hug and told her I was proud of her. Yep. The last time I hugged her was probably her CMA awards. No, no. Her CMA festival performance.

It's a big stage. Well, you even remember the hugs. That's how special they are. I don't hug unless it's special. When's the last time we hugged? Well, you need to earn that. Okay, I'll get to work. No, but that's good.

I mean, I watched the hug go down and I was like, wow, that must really, he must be feeling something right now. Yeah, I was proud of her. And she was nervous and I like it. I like it when artists who do big stuff all the time, she still get nervous. Because it matters to them. There you go. On my Instagram, you can watch her, just listen to the song. Mr. Bobby Bones on Instagram.

By the way, I have Chip Esten, Deacon from Nashville, complimenting Amy on her. shoes, right? Now, yesterday I said, hey, guys, if you want to make a girl feel good, like, compliment their shoes, I didn't mean hitting on, but I know that all the guys took it as that. Yeah, they did. But we as guys don't notice girls' shoes in general, and you girls notice your shoes a lot. That's a really important thing to you. Right. I notice because I'm not that manly. I like shoes. Yes. But guys, if you'll pay attention to women's shoes, like they love it, because they put time and effort into that. So it's like you feeded biceps for four hours a day every day.

No one said, hey, nice arms. You get upset at that. You'd be like, why nobody knows my arms? Yeah, I just worked out my arms for four hours. Right. No, he's saying anything. I've been doing for a month. Here's Chip Est and Deacon from Nashville talking to Amy.

But let's talk about what happened right when you walked in. What did you say to me? You walked in, you sat down, you looked at me, and then you said what? Well, you have these very lovely shoes on. They're beautiful. I complimented your shoes. What did I walk into with that? Is that a...

I just was told by the guys that... that I work with. I'm not saying, this is not me saying, I don't even want to say this. Does somebody else want to say? I told you, did they say it's like a hitting on anything? I don't think that. I know you're not. I think you genuinely like my shoes. But today on the show, I'm not joking literally. They said that. And then I walk in and I say it. You make sure we say it.

That's funny. The funniest part, though, isn't, because I know Chib well. Yeah. It's not, because Chips the kind of guy who knows his shoes. Yes. That being said, Because Amy made him feel like this, he then had to balance it out and insult her. Yeah. He straight up was like, I'm not really feeling that shirt, though. Yeah, he's like, okay, your shirt's ugly.

Yeah. I was like, dang, okay, don't got to be rude. That was funny. I like that guy. He'll be hosting the CMT Awards tonight. I hope you watch. Lots of artists performing, lots of cool groups playing together. I'll be on there presenting Kelsey. That'd be cool. There was a story in the news about these thieves, and they broke into. to an ATM and as they're breaking into it and they're kind of hitting it

it's hard to get into those things. The money catches on fire. Wait, that's a thing? That's ironic. It's not like a trigger where it just goes, boom, burns the money. But as they're breaking it, it spark and money catches on fire.

Wow. So now they're on camera. They know who it is and they got no money. That's funny. It's like reading. Yeah, how about that? They cashed me outside, girl. You know, she was doing that tour.

Yeah. And I was like, there's no way this tour's happening because nobody's going to come. And they were like, no, she's getting $50,000 a show. I was like, no, if it's sold out, but nobody's going to come. Yeah. Have you remembered that? Yep. Yes.

Cash Me Out, Sidegirl's summer tour has been postponed. Oh, no. Nobody was coming. Nobody was going to buy a ticket to watch that. She has no thing. Well, yeah. That's not even a real song. She was just talking crap on Moripovich or something and they made a song.

On Dr. Phil. Okay, same thing. Oh. Lunchbox loves her. She's hilarious And I asked you what you'd like to see her do And you said Talk tracks to people

Even that if you like Pick people on the crowd Like there are genuine like Jeffrey Ross Who's a roaster He can pick people out of the crowd And roast them That's a skill She can't do that

She's like 15 Yeah nobody came to the show They didn't selling tickets You never seen her Ah yeah I saw the episode on YouTube I was like Are you weren't impressed

I was like What's happening Kids stop Luke Combs came by Yesterday we're talking to Luke Combs, you know, Mr. Hurricane. And I genuinely wondered why he wears the same clothes all time. And I just asked him.

True story. Like, dude, why he wears the same clothes all the time? And so, here's, he's sponsored by Columbia. Oh, well, that makes sense. Let me ask you a question. Luke Combs is here. Are you sponsored by Columbia? I am.

Okay, I really wanted that because I see you in the same shirt every time. Yes, I am, actually. But it's not the same shirt. It's not the same one shirt. Did they say you boxes of those? Yeah, I probably got 50 of them. Close. Man, I don't care who it is.

I would wear, well, whatever, something. Right. Give you shirts and pay you? Yeah. Dang. How come I don't have that? Let's get it, man.

We'll work it out. Congratulations, Luke. Thank you, man. Appreciate it so much. First of many, my friend. Yes. He gets free shirt. I was thinking, do I have any sponsorship for I have a bunch of free stuff?

And I just don't know it. Because I do have Life Lock, but I had Life Lock before I started doing Life Lock. Because I was already like a proponent. So, why don't we advertise with you? So is there anything that I just get a ton of because I have a sponsorship? Pimpinjoy. That's not a sponsorship, though. We created that.

I know, but we get us on that. I know. Dollar Shave. I was going to say Dollar Shave. Well, I got hammered because I was on the road and I forgot my razors. I forgot my whole bag. And I had to go to the store and buy a disposable razor. Oh.

I mean, it wasn't that bad. I'll be honest. But Dollar Shep Clubs are much better. But the Sponsor is fine. But I'm using it on my Snapchat. People were just crushing me. Like, why? Where's that Dollar Shave Club?

And I was like, and I had to write on there. I was like, I'm not. I'm not going to lie to you. Like, I just forgot my razor bag. But, man, our listeners are smart, man. They noticed the kind of razor I was using. And they were like, uh, excuse me. Where's that dollar shave club?

They just want to make sure we're keeping it real. I need like a clothing deal or something. Yeah. Think about one of my easies tonight to the CMT Awards. Oh. You should. Okay. I like it.

I've been told against it. Why? Because it doesn't fit. But I'm like, Amy Bommi those shoes. They don't fit on your feet? No, they don't fit my little. The theme. Oh, my goodness.

I'm wearing the banana. anything on my head, like all the fruit. Bobby Bones, everybody. Transmitting across America. This is a Bobby Bones show. CMT Awards are tonight. I hope everybody watches for many, many, many reasons. It's going to be some awesome performances, some awards.

There'll be some. I'll be on at like 9-ish Central presenting Kelsey because Kelsey's going to perform her song, Legend, the new song. Yeah. So, there's a lot of reasons to watch. I hope you watch. Some collaborations. Yeah.

It'd be cool. The CMT Awards, you never know what's going to happen is the cool thing. Let's see what I have here. I got lots of artists. Here is Amy talking to brothers Osborne because you are their neighbor. Yep. Hey, let's play. Who's Amy's neighbor? Ah, not it. I know. Am I?

You are! Don't say our street name. All right, no, because I'm like, you wear big glasses and I'm like, I'm like kind of oddly that was like... Well, I only found out your right neighbor because my friend was spending the night and she was sleeping upstairs. and y'all had a party one night. And she... That sounds about right. It's the night of a Preds game.

And she was like, pretty sure Brothers Osborne or lives next door. And I'm like, well, they don't live together. So I guess I'll just have to research and find out. Yeah, well, I live just a couple blocks over. Well, obviously, we love you guys. We're a big fan of you on the Bobby Bone show. So we'll continue to rock out till it ain't my fault.

Yeah. Until your next one comes along and then we'll rock out to that. I love it. We love you guys. You guys were like the initial champions for this song. Bobby's good like that. Yeah, he's crazy. Yeah.

He's got. Great ears. One more compliment about Bobby. Great ears and great... Great teeth. Okay. Thank you. I do love that song, no man.

I do like those guys a lot of those. Can't even lie. Like, I like them as people. It was funny because they knew the minute I brought up that they had a party. They knew exactly what party I was talking about. Here's Amy and Brett Young talking. You ready for the CMT Awards? I am.

I'm excited for the CMT. Yeah, hello. You're nominated. Yeah. That's pretty cool. Breakthrough video of the year. First CMT nomination. Woo!

In case you didn't know. In case you didn't know. You're nominated. I heard it somewhere. I did. Did people do that to you a lot because that's the title of your song? It is a very popular joke right now. Oh, shoot.

I thought I was being. It's all right. I honestly thought I was being original. It's all right. I think it's good, so it's okay. Okay. Yeah. In case you didn't know, people do it all the time, Tom.

Yeah, I was like, good thing. People were crushing hard on him. I posted him on my Instagram story, and people that I know, I was getting, like, direct messages, and they're like, who's that guy? Set me up. A couple things. I've been able to get to know Brett. One, before he was really in a deal, like, Brett opened up a stand-up act for me at a charity event,

and then Brett came up with The Raging Idiots, Eddie of my band. I like Brett. Brett's been on the show multiple times. The weird thing about Brett, he's really good looking, but I feel like when he walks, he doesn't move his arms. Do you guys ever notice this? I'm not. He does have really long arms. Maybe that's why.

But when he walks, he doesn't move his arms. Watch him and just tell me if you notice this. Because he's so good looking, I got to say something's not. That's perfect. Like, he can sing, he's good looking. Like, will he get it? He's tall. Why don't you move your arms a little bit when you walk?

Can't do that. Can you? Yeah. There's something you're not perfect at. I do like that guy. guy. His next song's good, too, man. I didn't know you made people compliment me. This wasn't a bit where I made Amy get comfortable.

It just, well, it started happening, and it was organic at first, and then I just made it start happening with everybody. But I didn't make you do this. Of course you didn't. It just happened, and we liked it, so we went with it. I'd be more comfortable if you made them all insult me, frankly. Oh. That's a good bit, too.

That would have been the bit for me. Okay. I'll do that next time. Here's Amy with Brett Eldridge. You're going to fill in a blank. Okay. Bobby has good hats. Hats.

He had some hat the other day that, what was it? What was his hat the other day that? I don't know. He had some kind of free hat that he was. He does have lots of hats. That he was like trying to figure out how he could turn it on it forward and turn it backwards. It's his new smash hat for the, the Preds. Okay.

I don't even know what I'm talking about, but. He, you, because you posted a video of you, can I tilt my head to the side? or you're talking about how people are like, you're too old to do that. Yeah, people relax. My glasses are big and thick. I can't wear a hat. Brett said you can wear a hat

however you want as long as you own it. Well, Brett's also really good looking and seven feet tall. You can do whatever you want when you're... Apparently, if you're Brett, you can sing and you're good-looking. This whole thing. Brett Eldridge, Brett Young, George Brett. All amazing.

Here is Chip Eston, Charles Deacon from Nashville. Bobby has good and you fill in the blank. That's it. That's the game. Bobby has good. Taste and girlfriends. Oh yeah, Lindsay L. Shout out. I'll take that one.

This guy's good. Yeah, he knows. He knows. He's real good. He's real good. He'll be mayor of town. I bet he will be. Yeah, he's good.

Here is Keith Urban. Bobby has good. Vocal tonality. What is that? Like the timbre of his voice sounds really good. Wait, talk? Yeah. Okay.

Yeah, he's got good tone. Okay. What about, let's play one more round? No, no. He just gave you something. You make him do it again. She wants a bonus round. Keith was so much fun.

Yeah. Oh, he's the best. He's the best. Bobby has good. Taste in his co-announcers and radio crew. Okay, that's right. That's right.

Call-en-answer. Great answer. All right. Back to Brett Young. Bobby has good. Glasses. All right. Whatever, dude.

At least I move my arms and I walk. I'm just taking down. I hate her. Oh, I'm a hater big time. He's so good looking. Come on, what do you have me to do? Like guys like Eddie and lunchbox and I, we're trying to make a dime. I know.

And this guy who is just... But we can move our arms. Yeah, he's like singing perfect songs and like good looking and tall. John Party. Bobby has good. Blank. Bobby has good hair. Ah, I take that, John Varty.

Yeah. They got snooker's bar. John Party's hilarious. He's so funny, dude. Oh, my God. John Party's hilarious. And then we hung out with his dad, too. Because John came out with the raging idiots.

Yeah. his dad is why John Party exists The whole thing It's the whole thing Just like a miniature Yes And his dad's like names John too John Sr.

His dad is John with an age He's John with no age Absolutely Yeah Yeah Yeah I try not to have a relationship with artists Like I really do

So I can just be objective But sometimes people are just so fun And nice Like I like I give Brett Young A hard time Because I like him a lot John Party I love that guy

out of control. You remember when you were shaking his dad's hand and his dad's hand, his dad wouldn't let your hand go? He went on my hand go. It was like I was four. And John goes, Dad, let his hand go. Let the man walk away.

I was shaking his hand. You know how the old people would like grab you and just keep shaking it. It'd be funny when you're a tiny kid. He was doing that to me. I'm like, dude, I'm 36. Stop doing this. Here's Ray Lynn, by the way. Bobby has good style.

When people take too long, I'm like, hmm. Take too long. about something. She likes how you're different with your style. Bobby has good... It's low cash. Hair. Yeah. Okay. Bobby has... Let's go with that. He's got great hair. He does, right?

It's weird. Bobby has good red clothes. Ah, now we're talking. That's somebody who pays attention right there. I'm president. Hey, get you, Bobby Bones on. What's up, Bobby? Don't forget CMT Awards tonight. We'll be there. I'll be on. I'll be presenting Kelsey on your TV screen. but lots of cool performances

I don't even know what's going to happen like they keep it for me because that stuff's so secret we got to talk to a lot of artists because of that Dan and Shea I hear with Dan and Shea the song next week's going for number one

How about that? It's crazy man, it's awesome I think you played it first Remember you played that clip It was a while back I don't know a couple weeks Probably like 30 weeks Not that I'm counting or anything

You played it I remember you texted me I listened on the bus You know what you're right I listened on the bus It wasn't even getting to be a single I'm just playing I didn't do that sometimes No you're that's right

It's funny to watch you guys' songs, because this is how it goes in real life. People hear them and go, they still like the old school people. They're like, nah, Dan and Shay, that won't be a hit. Give it like 15 weeks, they're like, oh, it's going to be a number one song. Like, every single song you guys put out, people are like, you have to do you have to do that every time, don't you? Like, everything put out of songs.

Well, we didn't know that, but thanks for you're letting us know. That's funny. I like those guys. Anyway, we have all the people and we like. Or maybe we just not put on the people we don't like. I'm not sure what we're doing this thing. But these are all CMT Awards tonight. hope you do watch.

CMT awards are tonight, and so I have a lot of Amy interviewing artists. So here's Amy. Oh, hello. Oh, hello. Somebody's singing at me here. Here is Amy talking to John Party last night. We quote you on the show all the time. Do you know what the quote is?

What's that? Somebody gets this guy's knickers bar. Oh, yeah. Do you remember saying that? Man, where's he out? Where's lunchbox out? I was ready for round two. Yeah, no, but...

Do you fire him? At least, No. But. He showed up with that attitude, he got fired. At least twice a week, somebody says, live on the air,

somebody gets this guy's knickers bar. And then it's like our inside joke with us and our listeners. Like, everybody knows it's a John Party quote. I love it. Well, you know, whatever can help to help that guy out. Whatever can help that dude out.

That is funny. So what happened was Lunchbox insulted John Party accidentally. I don't think, I don't know how I insulted him. I was excited. I was trying to see if he was excited about playing with the raging idiots. Yeah.

And I interviewed him and that's all I kept talking about, I guess. And he was like, oh, you were like, how exciting is it open for the raging idiots? Oh, you must be such a thrill to open for the rage. That's Eddie in my band. And he's like, somebody gets a guy a snickers bar. He's like, why are you pushing me, man? Somebody gets this guy's snickering bar. Might have a little dirt on my book.

So now when lunchbox is upset, we tell him that. Smigginzger bar What's your favorite post-show snack? Pizza. Really? Yeah, but you can't have a lot of it, man. Why? Got to fit into your Wranglers?

Do you have on Wranglers? Yeah. You do? Okay. You always want to see my butt. Don't lie to me. A little lie to me. I know.

All right. Here's Amy and John Pardy, by the way. There you go. You're trying to set me up with a friends, trying to stand up, see the Wranglers. I love. See how it is. I do have a mutual friend of someone you know really well,

and you came up as a topic of conversation. And I was like, no, I think he's too young for you. Because honestly, I didn't know you were, I thought you were younger than you are. But then we- Dang. Somebody get a good old stickers on. Yay.

That's a compliment. You thought he was like, what? I thought he was like 24. And he's 32. Okay. Googleed you and you're 32. Yeah, I'm going to change that. So I thought you were like 24.

Really? Yeah. That's a compliment. I'll take it. I mean, I mean, is she young? She's in her face? Because at 24-year-old, you can't rent a car yet. Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, no, she can rent a car. Okay, well, that's... She runs her own business. She's awesome. Oh, what? Do you tell her, I said, hey? I will. I will.

We at least go with that. We'll go with the hay. You said hey. Okay. Might have a little dirt on the bus. That guy. John Party. Tonight's CMT Awards.

So I was nominated for the National Radio Hall of Fame. Like baseball has the Hall of Fame, football has the Hall of Fame. The radio. Radio has it, yeah. And I was like, holy cow, I can't believe they nominated me. And I'm the youngest nominee ever, and I didn't expect to win. But I did expect it to be fair, the voting. They just, Kelly Rippa just went on her show until I made to vote for Ryan C.

Chris. Oh, no. On the Kelly Ripper show. Yeah. It happened. Can I ask you a question? Yeah. How important is this to you?

I would love it. Listen, I don't think I went. That's why I don't want to talk too much about it because it's like I want to come on here embarrassed after I lose. But that's not fair. Listen, we are always a little man. There's never been a time when we haven't been the little man. That's right.

No, it's a fun one. I mean, is it a band? Listen, I'm not, this is not me doing the award. Right now there's only one person in my head that's ever been late because it's so awkward. Do it. Who? No, I'm not going to do it. No. Write it down.

Oh, it was awkward. Only one person. Do you remember the time this person was. late and it was awkward. No. I remember when a band was late and I was like, I was like, a single person and it was like, awkward. Single person. Let me see. Write it down here. Oh, that one was really bad.

I didn't see it. Well, that's because she still overslept. Yeah, I'm just saying. Oh, that was a bad one. Yeah, it was bad. Listen, it was Kelsey. Kelsey's like our closest friend. Because Bobby's so close to her and he was like, oh man, why are you late? Yeah, why are you late? Oh, that's right, the good one. Let me ask you this question.

question. So we can do it tomorrow. So last night, I was given a medal. I gave me a medal. I had a medal. It was pretty cool. I went to a awards show. They gave me an innovator and music award. And I got up there and I was talking and I was like, I don't feel like innovate music. I just play songs I like. That's not, that's just me going, I like this music,

I play it. And so it was really cool to get the award. And so I spoke and they were nice and took me early in the show so I could leave. I didn't know that. Like this is my literal thought. Oh, they thought about that. They did. And it was so kind of them to do that. I didn't think that. I thought I was like the opening act.

Like I thought I was like, oh, it must be the least important person. They put me first. Yeah. That's my mindset. Like, I'm first. I'll go up and accept the award. But they were so nice to go, no, we know yet. But I stayed. I didn't get home until late last night.

I wish I would have known because I had for sure, like, pieced out. But I didn't, and I appreciate the award. But let me tell you what they did. They gave me a metal, which is very thick. And I'm keeping the metal because it means something to me. They also gave me this coin. I'm going to show it. Oh, my bag.

Hey, let's let me bring my backpack in here. By the time, my tool for a backpack As I yelled those words Are you a what? I'm too old for a backpack Oh, thank you said I'm I a tool I did too I thought he said too

I was like well you're a tool for saying am I a tool? Oh, there you go You have stuff in there, you're good No, yeah, no your backpack is adult It's like leather It is leather thank you Mike Mike D Oh mine's like a kid's backpack

All right thank you So I have to They gave me also It's a very nice thing But they gave me a coin Right I want to show you this Oh wow and a cake That looks like a military.

Like a military, that's what their coins come in. Well, this, well, yeah, I'm not that cool. I know, but I'm just saying that's what it looks like. Look at this coin. Wow, that's legit. See, it's called an Innovation and Music Award. Now, here's the thing. Dang.

Isn't that awesome coin? Wow, that's the stuff you see on TV. But here's the thing. I would like to make a gesture with it. I would like to give it to a listener. Just to say that we wouldn't be doing this show and I wouldn't be get to be whatever they call me, innovator music without our listeners.

Yeah, because then you just be talking to yourself and nobody would care. Yeah, nobody would care. If listeners didn't listen to the, a show and didn't go, I like that song, or I trust you that you're, that we wouldn't have a show. Exactly. First of all, is it in bad taste of me to give, this is a really nice award. But I would like to, I'm not going to do it today, maybe tomorrow.

Okay. But is it in bad taste of me to give this to a listener as a show of appreciation that we wouldn't be here without them? I have a total comment about it. Go ahead, Amy. Okay. So you have the little neck piece. No, not, it's a huge metal.

Okay, you have a metal. I'm like, it's like Michael Phelps. I mean, it's big. Okay. So you have that. Yeah. And you're going to keep it because you cherish it. So I think that it's totally okay to give away the coin.

And you know what? I know I was bringing up the military thing and I know this is totally different. I know you're not comparing it. But it's something those coins are really special to military people and they give it away to people that somehow have impacted them or mean a lot to them or think that someone would take it and appreciate it. And so I think it's sort of similar to that. It's because it means so much to you, you're passing it along to the people that make it possible. I wish I could give one to everybody. I can.

Yeah, but you can't. So I think it's cool to do it that way. Lunchbox? I think it's probably in bad taste to give it to a listener, so just hand it to me and I'll handle it. I'll hold it. No. That makes sense. Don't do that.

How are you going to pick a listener? But giving it to a listener is like me giving it to all the listeners. So we'll do it tomorrow. I give it to somebody. Maybe it's the mystery prize. But you don't know. But you don't know. But as long as you guys don't think it's bad taste, I think, again, we don't get to do what we do without people listen to the show.

We're not stupid. Well, no, no. We are stupid. But we're not so stupid that we don't know that. Like, we're not even a real show. Like, I did nights. And then they let me hurled my friends and we did a morning show. No, we don't know how to do radio.

So I want to give this away. I'll give it away tomorrow. Cool. Just as it there. And if I had a ton of them, I'd give away a ton of them. Not a bad. Is it real gold? It is.

Dude, it's awesome. It looks amazing. Like, it's a super night. It's in the case. That's so cool. And listen to how it closes. Oh. That's what you know it's official.

It's right. Listen to it close again. Wow. Let me see. All right, nobody steal it. Okay. That's the only rule about me leaving this up here. Don't steal.

No stealing. You got it. So there's that. Tonight to CMT Awards. I know, right? And on the back it says, think forward. Yeah. I like that.

I got up last night and roasted the room. It's part of your acceptance speech? There's all my acceptance speech. Nobody wants to hear me blabble on about, I'm such an innovator. Because I don't think I am. I think I'm just a guy who get to go on and play music at a life. and have cool listeners.

And so I got up and I just made fun of everybody that were also winning awards. The only jokes I didn't get to make was about the head of Warner Brothers music. And I forgot to make it. Wait, how, you forgot? Can you do it now? Yeah, I can, but nobody's going to get it,

but I'll do it anyway. Because I didn't get to do it. Inside joke. So it's this room and it's like all the industry people. And he's the head of Warner Brothers. And Warner Brothers has artists like Blake Shelton. Brett Eldridge. Brett Eldridge.

Aubrey Sellers. So on and on and on, right? So let me get some awards. I'll just play this music here. Here we go. Thanks, I said. I appreciate the award. Let me also recognize the guy who's winning the Innovator of the Year Award,

John Esposito. Yeah, that got that guy right there. Congratulations on your two new baby boys, Dan and Shay. Thank you. Thank you very much. Do another one. Thank you very much. Listen,

listen, John Esposito, I would make fun of you more, but I'm still not completely sure you're not tied to the mob, all right? Oh! Thank you, thank you. Thank you.

Thank you. And just to fill listeners in, Dan and Jare on his label. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's called an inside joke. Nobody gets. But he also sort of really does look like he's in the mob, maybe.

Is that slick back? But, I mean, I'm not saying that just in case. Whatever. That's the joke I, exactly. Exactly. Yeah, I don't want to end up with a... news last night. I didn't get to use that. Horse in my bed. Yeah, you don't want a horse head in your bed. They don't put the whole horse in the bed. That'd be too much. How big is it really difficult? How big is your house to get that through the door?

I never saw that movie. Does your house match your closet? Because I've heard about your closet. What movie is that? What movie is that, Amy? The godfather? Okay. Yeah. I've seen like bits and pieces. Do you have things in your pile? I do, but let me get it up. I always picture a pile of papers. Like, you run the, Amy ruins the facade of that she has a pile of papers. Let me hit my screen and pull up my pile. Sometimes I really do print it. I demand for now on that you have a pile of papers and we go through them old school. I was worried about trees today.

1970. Trees. I'm 100. My whole thing is, I'm surrounded by papers. Honestly, you know what's happening though? I don't know what's up with when I print, but I print and it gives to like font 100. And it doesn't even print right. Cool story.

All right. And then she found $5. And now let's play. What's in Amy's pile? Amy, go ahead. Okay. So did you all see the dog that could count on America's Got Talent? No. Wait, I have audio of this and I didn't know what this meant. Oh, because I had the audio put in for my pile.

Oh, okay, here we go. If you would like to choose the number that you would like for her to count to, I'll tell her to count it for you. Four. Mia, count to four. Hold on. Go. Are you nervous? Are you nervous? No. No, she's not nervous. Okay. Sit. Mia, count to four. Wait, I thought she literally can. I thought it was going to be like one.

No, no, no. One, right. Two, rough. Like Scooby. Three, rub, rough, rub. No. Simon Cow says to count to 16 and then the dog counted to 16. Like, he knows how to count.

I don't care. What? My dog can't talk. You thought it's going to go one. I did. Yes, I did. Didn't we all think he was going to go, rough one. I was ready to be blown away.

What a letdown. Aunt, you're off the show. Oh, what? I thought it was cool. So, you know, James Comey's testimony is tomorrow, so heads up. Get your popcorn ready. No, seriously. Bars in D.C., San Francisco, and Houston, they're opening early tomorrow so people can drink vodka while watching it.

Yeah. But watching the FBI director's testimony. Must see TV tomorrow. That's pretty crazy. Yeah, what else got? They're opening early. That guy, by the way, like 6'8. James Comey?

Yeah. I didn't know that. When he stands next to people, they look like their little Dini Bebel. You've never seen him? Mm-mm. Look, I'm sure he's 6-8. At least 6-8. He's like Elegante, the wrestler.

No way knows that it is. Amy, go ahead. Share is working on a musical based on her life, and it's going to hit Broadway. Don't care. I like the Atlanta's more set musical. That I would go to. Well, I thought that was in my pile the other day. I know.

I don't care about Sher. You don't care about Share? A lot of people do. I like Old Share back, like 70 Share. Well, this is a musical based on her life, so that'll surely be a part of it. He's six-eight. He nailed it. Dude, he stands next to people and it's like an NBA player walking into a restaurant.

That's so tall. Yeah. Yep. What else you got? Give me one more. And lastly, Game of Thrones will set a new record, a world record that is. Do you know what it's for? Game of a World Record. Yeah.

I bet you. It's like Guinness Book of World Record stuff. Hmm. It's the most hashtags about a show coming up. No. We're setting people on fire. Oh, on the show. Yeah, is that like a thing? They do, that shows like a lot of nudity and a lot of violence.

And a lot of fire. Yeah, yeah, there's fire because winter's coming and they got to keep warm. There's a lot of fire. Yeah, poor stunting it. I'm not even making fun of that show because I love the show, but I will make fun of people who watch it because I'm one of them. Like, we're a little too into it. Like you get, we, you almost feel like you're part of the game of Thrones. Oh, boy.

Yeah, I know. I know. I'm a nerd. You do get into it. Yeah. Okay. You're like, Kalis. Is they going to come out with like a TBS version?

they could but that's like three quarter of the show gone no boobies no fights you know Eric Church

does his own thing you know who the new Eric Church person is it's Sam I'm gonna tell you why Sam Hunt it's because

and not the same as in like just put in your face but just a style they're going about it like church doesn't talk about awards churches I don't care

like you don't want to recognize that's cool I got my own people Sam's the same way and I just I was watching how Sam's like conducted his business over the past year. So there's zero reason Sam shouldn't be up for all these new artists selling records bigger than anybody but Stapleton.

Songs hit after hit. He's doing his own headlining tour. I mean, Sam is a monster. And yet he's just like, I was watching this thing. He was talking to the crowd. He was like, you know what? We grew up and we listened to all kinds of music. Like, okay, so my music sounds a little different.

We're all a little different. Sam is the new Eric Church. And I don't even mean that the exact same way. They have the way that they're distinct, but they're so distinctly just doing their own thing. And everybody else, if you want to come along, you're welcome to, but they're not expecting anything of it. Sam Hunt's the new Eric Church. And Eric Church is still the old Eric Church. Yeah.

Still gone. Before Eric Church, Jim and you had a lot of, they're a lot of, they're a lot of those. I mean, again, I've told this story a million times. My grandma went to Johnny Cash concert, and they were picketing outside because they were like, this is not country. This is rock and roll. And I'm from Arkansas. My grandma's from Arkansas. Johnny Cash is from Arkansas.

And people were ticked because they were playing this rock and roll music. And we think of Johnny Cash would be like the most country thing that there was. For me, most country thing ever is Hank Senior. When I think of Hank Senior, playing black and white.

Like that for me is the thing. But yeah, yeah, yeah. Sam Hunt is the new Eric Church. I see what you're saying. And the fact of, okay, don't get on board, get on board, whatever, I'm still doing my thing.

And he's doing it at the highest level possible. Yeah. So anyway. I was just playing Eric Church and reminded me one how awesome Eric is, two awesome Sam is. I guess I never realized that Sam never got like new artist awards

or anything. Nothing. Wow. Sam should be in the male vocalist category. Sam's selling records. His song should still be number one. Yes. Body Like a Backroad should still be number one. Realistically, there are two songs

that have been screwed this year. Like Hard. Okay. Both of those songs, Florida Georgia Line and Sam Hyatt. Both those songs should have been seven, eight week number ones. But they're, the industry's stupid.

And so, I'm in it, and I'm part of the industry, and I'm stupid. Anyway, that wasn't what the segment was about. What was it about? I don't know.

Yeah, where were we going? Oh, the CMT Awards tonight. Oh, Sam. Is Sam Performing tonight? Do they may know? I don't know. I don't either. I mean, I saw a bunch of people.

I know, I don't know. I'm going to be on. Not that anybody cares. I'm going to be on, but I'll be on, like right after 9 Central. I'm presenting Kelsey,

who came in and premiered, Legends today, her new single. It's a weeknight, man. Like last night I was out late, tonight I'm out late, and for me, that's crazy on weeknights because I got to work. Everybody don't got to work. People party all the time on weeknights.

How in the world are people party? Don't know. I don't know. Like, people are like, hey, you want to go to bar at nine? Like, don't you have a J-O-B? Yeah. I know you definitely wake up three in the morning like I do, but don't you definitely like seven?

How do people do this? Like, get stuff done and be productive. I don't know. It is Wednesday. How about a little Wednesday wisdom? it. Wednesday wisdom. Hashtack Wednesday wisdom.

The wisdom today is surround yourself with your goals. What do you mean by that, you ask? What do you mean by that? Let's say your goal is to lose 10 pounds. Okay? First thing I do is I take my lock screen on my phone and I write a message on notes, lose 10 pounds. And I'll screen save it and I make it my phone background.

So every time I look into my phone, I see that. I remind you to lose 10 pounds. Okay. I put images. I'm not talking about putting images. other girls in bikinis, that doesn't motivate you. Put little notes to yourself. You know girls so well.

Put little inspirational notes to yourself in the places that you look the most. Surround yourself with your goals. If they're long term, let's say you want a job running a corporation. Do things dress like you already have that job. Do make decisions like you already have that job.

Wednesday wisdom. Surround yourself with your goals. Put good people around you. Me, the key to my success is putting the best people around me. Period. And lunchbox is the one of the ones is a yes, but it's absolute truth. Oh, well.

I'm surrounded by the absolute best people, group, staff in the whole world. And put better, put smarter people around you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we need that. Surround you. Yeah. That one we need.

Is that where you're not? No, we are the smart. Hey, go ahead. Be smart. We're the smart people around here. Surround yourself with your goals. Wednesday wisdom. Thank you.

The list, too. Sam Hunt, I don't think is performing tonight. Maybe he's busy. I don't know. I don't even know. That wasn't even if he should be. be performing or not but he should win it he should not even this award because this is like videos yeah i don't even know if he i don't he didn't tell me able to vote that's the thing

he didn't tell me able to vote yeah because it's not his thing he's he just same just out doing his thing yeah making his money living his life making his dream married a hot wife yeah making that money that's something married to a hot life being awesome being awesome working out all these guys so they're all good looking it can sing and strong Not at all. People like Brett Young. Oh my goodness. But he doesn't move his arm through a lot.

Here's Amy. He's me talking to Brett Young. You ready for the CMT Awards? I am. I'm excited for the CMT. Yeah. Hello, you're nominated. Yeah. That's pretty cool.

Breakthrough video of the year. First CMT nomination. Woo! In case you didn't know. In case you didn't know. In case you didn't know. You're nominated. I heard it somewhere.

I did. Did people do that to you a lot because that's the title of your song? It is a very popular joke right now. Oh, shoot. I thought I was me for it. It's all right. I honestly thought I was being original. It's all right. I think...

I think it's... I know. We'll just turn that down. CMT Awards are tonight, and Keith and Kerry are going to perform. And they're going to defy her, but they're going to do something crazy, like different. Oh. Yeah, that's the thing. That's the thing about CMT Awards. Like, you don't know who's going to be doing what and how they're going to be doing it.

I don't think... I shouldn't even talk about it. I've been privy. Oh, to some info. The 4-1-1. Or maybe I haven't. I shouldn't say anything. Here's Amy talking to Keith Urban. This is an awkward. I haven't heard this one.

Pretty awkward. Keith I was playing tonight? Well, one last thing, and then we'll let you go. Like, what's that? You smell really good right now. Do I? You smell really good. You might be your green juice.

No, it's like a sense. It's like a, it's like manly, but yet also like maybe you just like, we're building a fire. What are you doing, Amy? What? I'm trying to describe how he smells. With like pine trees or something. So you're saying it's a boy scounder. kind of fragrance.

Yeah. Oh my goodness. Eddie was telling me how your interviews are getting better, though. I mean, I know you're picking this area, but like, do her interview, like, skills have gotten way, way, way better. How would you define, let's start with Lunchbox? How would you define his interview skills?

Terrible. Oh, wow. Yeah, no, Lunchbox's terrible. He doesn't do any research about artists. Like, he's not prepared ever. He tries to be funny with jokes that they don't even get. Yeah. So he has a lot of work to do.

Needs improvement. And Eddie's been producing everybody's, interviews for the CMT Awards. Yeah. Okay. What's Amy's interview style? Amy, I think she started maybe at a two or three, and I say she's up to an eight. Wow.

Wow. All you can do is improve. That's awesome. Needing to improve a little bit, Amy, is just not really talking so much. Oh, that'll never happen. What do you mean? Well, sometimes I feel like Amy forget she's interviewing an artist, which means you want to get something out of them, and then Amy just tells stories, and they just laugh at her stuff.

Oh, Amy thinks people are coming in to interview her. Exactly. She thinks it's a rotation of people to interview her. No, no, no. I'm never going to not be able to talk and ramble. It's just, yeah. Yeah. Okay.

Now, the one with the A plus needs no improvement. I mean, there's always improvement. Always room for improvement with everyone. But, I mean, it just obviously Bobby's the best. Thank you. I mean, he can make an artist have vomit of the mouth with words, and they just start, like, getting comfortable and telling their deepest, darkest secrets. Thank you very much.

I appreciate that. So, dude, you're solid. So what you're saying is Hall of Famer. Yeah. So go vote. Here's Keith Urban talking about me coming over. Yeah. What's this?

Remember when you went to his house over Christmas? Yeah. You talked about that? He brought it up. Oh, we did? Okay. I never know what to bring it up. You did bring it up.

Okay, okay, okay. Like, again, I was getting trouble. I mean, I got it out of him. Oh, oh. I know you've been trying to go see a movie for like four years. Okay, key, though. He did come to our house at Christmas Eve, so that was cool. In Australia.

He finally have some social hang with him. It took us being in Australia, of course. He's like, okay, fine. I'm halfway across the world. Yeah, yeah. But that was really cool. I was glad he did that. Yeah.

Yeah. I went over to the house. We hung out. I'm a real treat to hang around to you. Let me tell you. I got nothing to say. I'm the worst. I'm the worst to hang out with.

I just feel awkward. I wouldn't even went. Keith's like, come over, come over, come over. And I was like, eh. And Lynch is like, we're going. Yeah. You're in Australia. You're going.

Okay. You're ready for this? Yeah. Ready for this? Ready. Yeah. I don't want to have anything. Everybody on Twitter.

Everybody on Twitter's mad at me for comparing Sam Hunt, Derek Church. Why? Sonically, they're not the same. But I'm saying, they do have the same mindset. Like, I'm just going to do my thing, and I don't need... I think you explained yourself very well. ACM, CMA. They don't need that.

Yeah, sometimes I don't think people listen to exactly what you're saying. One person on Twitter says it, and then 90 people are like, it doesn't even matter. I don't even care about that. Okay. Get over. Moving on. Get over it. Hey, Ray, where's the Allm Brothers song?

Here it is. Tonight, the TMT Awards are going to start with... Because you know Greg Allen died. Yes. So there's a tribute. I mean, I don't know if I can say this. There's a list out. Oh, there is?

Yeah, it's Darius and Charles Kelly and Aldeen and Derek Trucks. He's like maybe with John Mayer, the greatest living guitar player alive right now. I didn't know that. Derek Truggs? Yeah, I never heard of him. Oh, sorry. I thought you just said John Mayer was going to be there. No, no, no, I'm saying Derek Trucks is with John Mayer, like the greatest guitar player alive.

I'm like now. I'm sorry, my bad. That's the deal. It's those four doing this song of the tribute. Such a jam. Darius, Charles Kelly, Jason Aldein, Derek Trux. They're doing Midd Out Rider. Yeah.

That'd be tonight. They don't even make music like they used to make before we were born. They don't. Okay. Good one. Thank you. Yeah. This is a Bobby Bones show.

Bobby Bonds. All you're going to go, but let's say this tonight. CMT Music Awards. I hope you watch on CMT, 8, 7 Central. If can't, I hope you listen to the radio and listen to the awards. I'll be presenting tonight. I believe it's fair to say I'm presenting Kelsey. I know they put out the press plates that I was presenting, but I've been saying I'm presenting Kelsey.

I hope they don't care. Yeah, well, I'm too late now saying it. Yeah. I don't think they'll care. I hope you watch just to watch. I think it'd be really cool. Lots of collaborations and stuff. But I'll be presenting Kelsey.

She's doing her new song. She came in earlier today and played that song. So just I hope it's good. It's going to be good. That's what we're doing tonight. Tomorrow we're going to come in and be loopy as crap. And those are the best and worst shows. It just depends what segment you hear.

So that'd be tomorrow. Thank you very much for being a part of the show with us today. My name on Instagram and Twitter, if you want to follow along, Mr. Bobby Bones, M.R. Bobby Bones.
