Listen to the girlfriends. Trust me, babe. On the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome back. Hope your weekend was great. Morning, today. We have Old Dominia coming up just a little bit. But let's go around the room.

On Monday, I like to just throw out a general question. I get to know you question. I'll ask it and I'll answer it first to give you guys time to think because you don't know what's going to be. What piece of culture or trend has died out that you wish to see make a comeback? And I'll go first. But again, what piece of culture or old trend has died out and it'd be cool if it came back? It could be anything.

Me, I'm going to go with Hammer pants because there was a feller named MC Hammer. He had songs like, you can't touch this. Have you seen her? Too legit to quit? I could keep going. Pray. That's why we pray just to make it today all my life. I wanted to make it to the top.

That's why we pray. Some said I would, and they told me no, but I didn't stop. That's why we pray. He had that song, right? The pants were so comfortable, aside from being mad, because they were like, tied on the waist, but they were massive. Parachute pants what they looked like because they were just so big on the sides. They were very comfortable.

I love comfort. My wife tells me I should stop wearing cutouts everywhere I go when I'm not working. I went to the doctor and he cut out. It's some shorts the other day. She's like, what's happening? I said, I was just, I was just living my life. She was like, there's a time when you just. This is the time to place.

She's like, just got a T-shirt with the sleeves. Like, why? That's not me. I like to wear shorts and a cut-out, cut-out shirt and a hat and go to wherever I need to go. Hammer pants and a cut-out shirt. That would be the jam. Cut-out shirt's still in, though, if you ask me. Mine's hammer pants.

Eddie. All right, I'm going to go kind of the same generation. Dance-offs. Do you remember in middle school where you thought a fight was going on at lunch and you're like, oh, my gosh, there's a fight? It's not a fight. It's a danceoff. Were they dancing off for the reason they would have been fighting, though?

Because they were so mad at each other and like, oh, yeah, watch this. And they do the running man and they fight and they do it right in front of them, right in front of the other person. And then they back off and everyone's like, ooh, and then the other person goes. That's cool. Did you see that on TV? No, that was my middle school. Did you guys not have that? I went to a school where if they kick kids out of other schools for gang affiliation, they got sent to my school.

Oh. So we didn't have dance off. You had a shootouts. Yeah. Never had dance off. Really? That sounds fun. That's why I'm like, that would be awesome if that had been what it was.

That was the coolest thing in the world. And they were really two people that hated each other. but instead of fighting, they danced off. And the principal was like, what do I do? Do I stop this? We had Jones off sometimes. What was that? He Jones on each other.

You take turns Jones on each other. You make fun of each other. Oh, like cut downs? Yeah. And you take it go back and forth. Oh, oh. But then they turned to a fight. They would just get real personal.

I wish it ended up the best Jones, but then it was turned into a fight. Wow, wow. I'm shocked you guys didn't have danceoffs. I wish. I wish we would have lunchbox. Man, there's a lot of them. I want to get rid of caller ID. and I want to get rid of doorbell cameras.

So yours is getting rid of technology. Oh, not bringing back? No, I want to bring back the good old days when kids could do stuff. Like, they could prank call. Now they can't because you call. Oh, I'm not going to answer that. I don't know who it is. So there is no prank calling for kids.

I feel so bad for them getting to enjoy that satisfaction of calling someone and saying, is your refrigerator running? Oh, you better go catch a, you know, stupid things like that. They can't even do that anymore. And they can't go toilet paper. You know why? Because everyone has a doorbell camera. And alerts to people, hey, they're outside toilet.

with paper in your house. Poor kids. Let's bring back the fun. I feel like he's running for office, trying to get every 14-year-old to vote for hers. And I'd also like cargo shorts to be back in. They kind of are if it's the right ones. Really?

They are. You still wear yours. They don't have any cargo shorts anymore. And cargo pants. If it's the right ones, they are back in. Because I never had cargo pants. I just had the shorts. And I mean, if I'm going on a plane, I'd put a water bottle,

snacks, like, phone, wall. I mean, it was amazing. Cargo. Yeah. Literal cargo. He would use the pants. for literal cargo. And my wife kept, hey, those are like, what, you need to get rid of those?

And I was like, ah, I think they're still in. She's like, no, your only one wears them. I like that answer better than being able to have kids go and, you know, go to the paper. Yeah, mess up people's property. But, okay, Amy? A blockbuster. Or something like that.

An experience for my kids on a Friday night. I was just trying to tell them the other day about how you have no idea how exciting it was on a Friday night to get to go to Blockbuster and sit there and try to pick out the perfect video, get the candy, wait and line. Like, it's just a whole thing. and like something to go do, and then you get to watch a movie. Now we just sit at home and scroll the TV trying to find a movie. Yeah, that's awesome.

You wasted a lot of time going to Blockbuster. Oh, I loved going. I think she liked the experience. It was cool. The excitement. It was like going somewhere. Oh, yeah, and then the movie you wanted was there. Was never there.

And then it wasn't there. Or you can check the return box and it just got dropped in. Yeah. Yeah. Got it. You'd be like, is there she Ms. Deltfire came in the last five minutes. Well, yeah, I just got to rewind it real quick.

Let's go. Right. Because it's like, also, I was trying to explain to them, be kind to rewind like you would have to wait for it to rewind before you go return it and also as a parent on the weekend sometimes you're just looking for time to kill that's true something to do and that would be awesome good answers everybody yeah i'm sorry that we were just not able to go out and like spray paint places at lunchbox really we've really because a doorbell can't ruin everything burglar eyes and you know it's really run that i mean do you not agree i agree that there i get your

point it's just funny that's where you went in that point the good old day good old day good old days, right? Let's open up the mailbag. You send an email and we read it on the air. It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Hello, Bobby Bones. I've been going out with this girl for a few months, and we've been on about eight dates.

Man, we've hit it off. I think we both have mutual feelings towards each other. We both want a relationship. The one thing about her that I find alarming is that she has not once ever offered to pay for any dates that we have been on. I'd never let her pay but I feel like the gesture of

offering goes a long way she has a good job so I know money's not an issue is this a red flag that I should take into consideration before making things official or am I overthinking it would love to hear your input love the show signed guy with a full heart and an empty bank account

now I think you bring up a couple points that are vital to my answer here number one is you like her a whole lot point number one you like her a whole lot First of all, if you do like her and she likes you and it's hitting, it's going great. I don't think you should find a secondary reason to kill the relationship like this. If you're on the fence already, you could actually put this on the scale and see if it overweight.

But I don't think that that's a red flag. Now, there are different colors of flags, but that part's not a red flag. And you can't let it be a red flag. The other thing is, she has a good job. So you know money's not an issue. If money were an issue and she wasn't paying, I think a concern would be maybe she, She's just dating me because I got money in and paying for stuff. Because she's got a good job, my assumption is it's in her own personal private family culture that this has, this is instilled into her.

It's not her fault. She can improve at it if you'd like her to, but you have to communicate that too. So I am not good sometimes because I will just feel something and I won't communicate it, yet I'll still be disappointed when they don't do what I didn't tell them they should have done anyway or at least ask them about. out. So it is not a red flag. There's a conversation that you can have. She is not using you for your money because she has money. I just think she could possibly be coming from a place of, well, the guy just pays. Now, if that's uncomfortable and she says that, that's something you got to deal with. Maybe you're okay with it if she just says it. If she just comes down and goes, oh, sorry, where I come from, the guy is the pays for the dates. Yeah, he said he wouldn't let her pay

even if you tried. Right, right. You already got it! You're going to hold her for something you don't even really want her to do. And I do understand, because I was the same way. I always wanted to see

what kind of person they were, but I wouldn't red flag them if we'd gone on that many dates. You'd do that at like two, or three. You go to dinner, maybe you test them out a little ice cream after if they don't jump out on that second date

and say, I'll get the ice cream. Then you start to go, you don't do it after eight and you really like each other. You're there. It's hard to get somebody that you really like for eight dates. They don't even have to speak.

They just need to do the wallet grab. Yeah, yeah, sure. But they didn't. But that's where we are. Right. But if you don't communicate your needs, yet they don't give you your needs. You can't be upset. They're not giving your needs because you never communicated that you had these needs.

How do you have that conversation? Yeah. Are you ever going to pay for anything? Oh, wow, wow. That's aggressive, much. Hey, by the way. But don't say it just like that. Okay, good.

How would you say it? Are you ever going to pay for anything? Stop. No, you would, I think it's, you haven't have the conversation. conversation, what I, how I would do it honestly, let's say Eddie, you and I are on a date. Yes. And we've been on eight dates and I paid for all of them. And I would be like, does it offend you when I like open the door for you? Like, because I really try to get it and open the door.

Some people will go, you know, everything's equal. Does it offend you when I always, oh, and I don't think it would, but does it offend you? No, I actually enjoy it. Thank you. Because I enjoy it too. And I try to really do a lot of the old school things. And you probably want to pay for some meals. And I'm sorry that. I've been so over the top about making sure that I pay. And if you want to pay for some of these, I think we're at the stage now where we can start to split it off a little bit.

But I just want you to know that I always feel like I'm here to take care of you. And if that's weird to you, let me know. You don't want to pay for my meals anymore? I want to pay for all your meals, every one of your meals. Good. For the rest of it, how do you feel about paying for all your meals forever? That'd be great. You should. Okay.

See, if you answer like that, that's where the red flag comes up immediately. I was testing you. But that ain't going to happen. Oh, okay. What do you think she'll say? Oh, it's been really nice of you. Sure, I can, I'd be happy to chip in some. I just, because maybe she thinks you're just so quick

because that credit card, it's awkward to her. So, that's how you do it. You kind of, I don't want to say, lube it up. So I'm not. But you did. Maybe we beep that and just put that on the podcast, scuba. But you warm it up. No, no, no, that's cool like a car.

You loom it up. No. Now you beep that again. Oil. Oil it up. hard again for the radio. Okay. For the live part right here, we're just beeping it.

But yes, you have to walk her to that question because you can't go, why don't you pay? But you can go, like, you don't care right? Because I enjoy, and I enjoy paying. And if you ever feel like you, and that's how you get that conversation up. Okay, we can wrap this up, but I just throw in a little wrinkle of, what if she's in debt? Like, maybe she has a really great job, but she's... Yeah, but he is broke. Yeah, he could be in debt.

Okay, I'm just saying. Everybody's in debt. He's assuming, he's like, she's got a really good job. good job. So I know it's not an issue. And so he may not know that she's got all these credit card bills or whatever. And she's like, oh, sweet, I'm getting my meals paid for. Well, I don't want that, though. I know. A lot of assumptions here, but that's why you communicate it. So it'll be like, hey, so you. And if you're in debt, go in debt a little more, buy me a sandwich, you know? What's the difference? I'm in debt too. I'm buying you dinners. Yeah. That's what I would say do. So get at it. Don't red flag it. It's not red flagable. It can be if you keep going and you get

down the road or you don't like what you see. Right. Down to dead end. don't like that house, get out of there. But right now, don't do it. All right, thank you for that email. Close it up. We've got your email and we've read it on the air. Now it's about to close Bobby's mailback. Lunchbox will stop talking about riding in cars with both Morgan and being around Amy.

Like it's this new thing to talk about. We don't have a water cooler, but water cooler talk. He's like, they're both so terrible at driving. You know what I call that? What? Desperation. For what? He's just desperate for stuff to say.

Yeah, but that's him. That's what he does. No. Is this just a bit so you can get on the air? No. Is it valid good bits that like you're like, oh, that actually is kind of good. We should do that. Well, what he suggested was a driver test between you and Morgan with a professional driver.

Okay. Yes, because I've ridden with Morgan like three times in the last couple of weeks and it is scary. Amy, I used to ride with you and we took trips all the way from here to Austin and I would be scared to take a nap because you were driving and I was like, oh man, I can't. I can't nap. If you're scared to. nap while someone's driving on an interstate? That's crazy. Yeah. Like, scary. Stop.

And so I get in the car with Morgan and she does, she holds on the phone. She looks at the map. Won't let me hold it. The last time I got in the car with her, she has that big duck. And then she hits a curb. And I said, a curb. When she's taking a right hand turn, she goes, but you said it afterward? Well, after she hit the curb. Yeah, yeah.

And she goes, oh, no, that was just a great. I'm like, no, that wasn't a great. And then an email comes in and she checks it while she's driving. I'm like, what are we doing here, people? I swiped it away from the map. Did you take an app? No. No, no, no, no.

You're never getting rides again, ever. And so then I thought, man, we got to have a driver off. We got to find out who is the worst driver. I'm good. Because we give Amy a hard time, Morgan might beat her. By beating her, do you mean lose to her? Yes. Hey, Scoobie Steve.

So my idea is it's not just Amy v. Morgan. It's Amy v. Morgan, v. Eddie, v. lunchbox. All of us? You all take the test. Bring it. Because then I don't know that they're both bad. drivers and it could be she hit a curb and she said oh that was a great it was a great no no you don't go boboop off a great yes you do it a Jeep lunchbox you've

never hit a curb I mean I haven't hit a great in a long time work you know how many potholes and grates are in Nashville but like the roads are not good I don't know and you're we just looking for bits I get I can drive you to the street corner and you can show me what this great is okay scuba yeah what you want to do if we could get a driving instructor and like a court I mean is there can we do they have courses or anything that you take that my daughter's literally taking her driver's test in like a week and a half

with a guy I don't know but it's like we find somebody who can do it we set up some stuff they have people that where they have the two wheels in the car parallel parking yeah it's no it's through a private running from police yes I like that ramps

there's all these categories can we figure out something because I have a feeling Mr. Petty over here thinks he's a lot better driver than he is Maybe he would lose or maybe he would win. Well, apparently he's never hit a curb. That's what he says, yeah.

Yeah, when I'm driving, I don't hit curves when I'm taking a right hand. Yeah, when you're taking a right-hand turn? Never. I'm saying, have you ever hit a curb? Yes, right. Okay, thank you. The odds of me being in the car and that's the one random curve she hit in her whole life. It wasn't a curve.

It was a great. Oh my gosh, it wasn't. So this is what we're dealing with. You also have the crappiest car of all of us. No, no. Right, my car's crappy, but guess what? You've taken the least care of it. So that also says something about your character with driving.

So I'm just putting that out there. Morgan, my car would not last 18 years if I was a bad driver. Because you see big dense. But you don't take care of your. I mean, you do the inside of your car. You've always been pig pen from the tire brown. That's fine. But I'm talking about the outside.

I don't hit things. I don't get in wreck. She drove over a grate apparently. I can't wait to go to that street corner and take a picture of this great. I am going to go out. You're not going to drive 30 minutes away where it was. That's not what we're doing. We don't care about the grate or the grape.

Or the curve, or the curve. We don't care about any of that. I'll show your tire mark on there. What we care about is to see if we can have some sort of driving test that everybody can take and see who the best driver is, Scoobo Steve. We can do that, yeah. It doesn't have to be tomorrow. It can be two, three, four weeks. It doesn't matter.

Okay. But whatever, if everybody takes it, would you guys be willing to take it? Yes. I'm in. Amy's still like, uh-oh. Well, I just feel like it's ridiculous, but okay. That's a fun bit. If you beat him.

If you beat him. How's he, what's the, I guess we need to know the Greg. rating process. No, you don't. You got to pass the test. Drive. What's the top? Well, it's the highest

jump off the ramp. Right. So if we all pass, we're good. It's who drives the best with their knees while eating. I can do that. I'm good at that.

Who's the worst driver on the show, though? Say it now and it's going down on record. I'm not going to take part of the test. I don't claim to be a very great driver. I'm a slow driver, but I think I'm okay. But I'm not bragging. I'm out of the test because I will be sitting here while you guys do it. Amy.

Lunchbox. You think he's the worst. Lunchbox. Oh, it's going to be Amy, but it's going to be close. Eddie, I haven't seen Morgan, so I'm going to Amy. Okay, whatever. I've seen that. Lunchbox.

Okay, there you have it? Let's play. Are they just saying that? Yeah, they're angry. They're angry. You better back up. You better be the best driver. If you're sitting here criticizing what we do, you better be the best driver of all of us.

I will be. If you're not, that's hilarious. I told you. And if he's not, then that's hilarious too. It's time for the good news. With producer Eddie. A 911 dispatcher in New York gets a call and it's someone saying, oh my gosh, there's a big mother duck on the highway.

We don't know what to do. It looks like it's calling for something. So the cops go over there. They show up. And yeah, Mother Duck's looking for its ducklings. There's four ducklings that apparently went down a storm drain. And Mother Duck's freaking out going, like, where are they? Where are they?

So cops are like, what do we do? What do we do? They go to the storm drain. They kind of listen like, oh, we can kind of faintly hear the ducklings. So one of them thinks, hey, get your phone. go on YouTube, Google Mother Duck calls and play it. And so they did it.

Turn the volume all the way up. And the duck slowly came to the storm during. They came to the phone. Yeah, they came to the phone. And Mother Duck was reunited with the Ducklings. They watched the ducklings and the duck, and they took them to a nearby pond. That's awesome.

I'm going to try this. With what? Your kids? No. Bedroom? No, my ducks. I have ducks. You play PS5 sound.

Your son comes out. Hello? Yeah. I could try that. But no, my ducks, they haven't returned to me in a while. No, no, they don't live with you. You're not their mom? They were just swimming in your backyard.

You think you're their mom maybe? You're not their mom. Yeah. I have provided them. No, no. No. Well, here's the thing. Also, a bunch of listeners told me when they saw the ducks, they're like, oh my gosh, just wait.

They're going to, they're mating and they're going to give you ducklings. You want to watch ducks mate? No, but I'm waiting for the little ducklings to show up. And now there's been, it's been so, it's been so anti-clim. Like, I had ducks. It was amazing. They were just stopping by. You're probably migrating. Yeah.

You're headed up north. Whatever. I'm pulling up some duck sounds and I'm going to call them. All right. Eddie good story. That's really cool, huh? That's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good.

It's a Bobby Bones show interview. I'm a big Old Dominion fan, the band. Well, for sure, talk to Matthew Ramsey. I don't know who's with Matthew, but we'll see what's up. Old Dominion's got eight number ones, including their very first one, break up with him. Tell him that it's over. We won't do them all, but I loved their last number one, one-man band.

I don't want to be a one-man band. I thought Snapback was the jam. And their newest single, it should have married you. Here you go. Their Memory Lane EP is out now. It came out on Friday. Their No Bad Vibes Tour is out. They're out on the road and doing all kinds of stuff.

Here they are. They've won the ACM. They are amazing. on the Bobby Bones show now. Old Dominion. I got Matthew and Trevor here on. Hey, guys. What's up?

Hey. We got lots of stuff. First of all, I want to talk about something that I see a lot. I've not seen it with you guys. And actually, the picture I'm looking out of you guys, you're not doing this. So this is a perfect reason to ask it because I'm not picking on you, but picking on bands in general. Why in most band pictures are bands looking different directions? What's happening in all the different directions in band pictures where that's a thing?

We're just really tired of being with each other. Band pictures are picky, man. There's not much different you can do. But I'm telling you, like the picture that is on my desk here now, all of you guys are looking forward, like a normal picture where someone says, hey, guys, we're going to take a picture to look. But a lot of band pictures, like someone's looking at Haley's Comet, there's a worm on the ground for another member.

Why do you think just generally, because that's a pretty common thing, and I'm sure if we look back at your pictures, you've done this too at some point. Why do you think that was a thing? I think, you know what I think it is? I think it's because it's really tough. The more people you get in a group, it's really tough to get a good face on everybody. So if everybody's looking somewhere else, there's a better chance that one person who's looking at the camera gives you the good face. And it doesn't matter what everybody else is doing.

I'll accept that and move on. Next, Lunchbox saw one of you guys recording yourself playing golf. Which one was it? That one. It's Brad. Probably Brad. That had to be Brad. Well, lunchbox just pointed it and said that.

You're pointing at the screen in front of me. I'm pointing at the screen. Yeah, I don't know names. Okay, so it's not Trevor or Matthew. No. Okay. No. That one.

He said that Brad showed up with a camera and set it all up, like a full, you know, influencers and then recorded himself at the driving range, hitting golf balls from different angles, which I didn't hate. I mean, he just wants to get better at golf. But is he generally the guy that likes to be on camera, or is he just a big golfer? I think he's just a big golfer.

I've never seen somebody be so dedicated at something to be so pretty good at it. That's hilarious. Dang, dang. I like it. That's hilarious and I like it. We're going to play a little song by you guys here and we'll come back in a second. But the current single that is now, I believe it's top five, we're going to do this first. It's Memory Lane and the Memory Lane EP is out now.

But I don't know, you guys, both of you guys wrote this song, also with Brad and Jesse Joe Dillon. So I'm always curious about where did this start? Who had it in their phone? Who had a couple lines? Like how did this song come together? It was actually Brad had the little guitar lick and that beat going when we showed up to his house. And I think Jesse Joe actually had the title memory lane, but she didn't really know anything past that.

And we just sort of started riffing on it. And somebody said, you know, if I can buy a house on memory lane, and then it kind of zapped us all into this world where we were all suddenly on our own little journey in our minds, I think. And we were just kind of all reminiscing and it kind of went line by line from that point. It wasn't like we were trying to write around

some sort of hook like we do sometimes. We were truly just kind of in it emotionally and seeing where we could go with it. On the Bobby Bone Show now. Old Dominion. You were talking a second ago about Memory Lane and maybe Jesse Joe Dylan had come in with the song.

title. I have a song title. I just, I haven't written it with the right people yet. You guys may not know me. I do a little comedy music, a little thing. You know, maybe. I do a little thing. It ain't in an Old Dominion. We've heard. We've heard. Yeah. Although we did used to play after Old Dominion, back when they were babies, you know what I mean? Oh, yeah. They've surpassed us. Don't worry. They've far surpassed us at this point. I don't want to brag. But I got a title. It's a love song, and it's called Breakfast for Dinner. I don't think you should eat breakfast for dinner and I don't want to eat two meals. If I'm eating and my wife's having breakfast,

I don't want to have lunch. We can't do that. But I'll do everything for you, including have breakfast for dinner. So if you guys don't want to write in that and sending it back to me and making me one third the writer and it's got to be funny, that's cool. Have at it. Man, that's a lot of parameters. You're going to get a full third for that? I gave you the whole idea and the inspiration of it. I mean, what else is true. I mean, that's, that happens. I mean, I'm already sure. What I would do is go, like, have a beer for breakfast and breakfast for dinner. I don't drink beer. That's what I would do.

Or I could have... See, it's like all the things I never thought I would do because I love her so much. Like I never thought I would remember to put the toilet seat down. You know, I thought I never would, I would never buy furniture that I didn't have to put together, like to buy something. And I do whatever. Oh, take a break from work. Yeah, go on vacation or not worry about always being thinner.

And for you, I'd do anything, even have breakfast for dinner. You know, it's kind of like that situation. I see where you're going with that. All of those things sound like sacrifices. Breakfast for dinner sounds like a cop-out, but I think... It does a little bit. But I hate breakfast for dinner, but that's the thing you're missing. Really?

There's no way... I should never have eggs afternoon. I have eggs every meal. And I would never, after 6 p.m., eat cereal with a spoon. See, follow me. We're doing cat and the hat rhymes here for songs. And I do anything. So feel free to finish it and send it back.

And then we'll see what happens. You know, like sometimes in a writing session when we're all sitting around throwing around ideas, you know, you come in and you're like, this is my idea. And you know, you've thought it through and you pitch it to the guys. And everybody goes, you know, I have this idea, which basically means that idea was not going to be written that day. And I feel like we might be in one of those situations. Well, I have this idea. The interview's over.

Oh, wow. Yeah. No, I mean, we all got great ideas here today, don't we, boys? Yeah, how about that? To be fair, you know, we wrote a song called Song for Another Time, and I pitched that idea to about 10 different writers, and they all shot it down. So maybe we're just not the people for it. I guess you're not.

Maybe we are, though. I don't know. I'm going to get back to you on this. Thanks. The wheels are turning. Trevor knows. And I'm going to tell you what, Matt, when Trevor goes solo, you think you know who's going to be up here doing his promotion? Trevor, and you know who ain't getting invited?

Matthew Ramsey. So, stuck on that egg. All right, look, they got some stupid music out today. It came out on Friday. Who gives a crap? I'm just kidding. Okay, look, you know I'm a massive fan. Like, I couldn't be a bigger fan of you guys' music in general.

You write excellent hooks, but also the songs. Always have depth unless you purposefully go, we didn't want this song to have depth. Like I just am such a fan of your music. And this EP that you put out, it's the Memory Lane EP. Why an EP, which means EP for those that are out there listening, it's eight, I mean, it is eight songs. It's almost a full record. Why not like 12, 18 songs? Why not like a bunch of stuff?

Because we're just not done with it yet. So the rest of it's coming. Oh, so it'll be part of the whole thing. Yeah, it's part of a larger project. We actually just got a text this morning with some updated mixes and stuff. So we have actually a lot more music that we're working on. that will be out sooner than later. That's a good answer.

I'm still a little hurt by the whole we're not the guys for you. I know a lot of song drivers in this town. You guys will never write in this town again. Oh. I do want to play. We're going to come back with that for one more little deal here.

But what is all your number one singles here? Because I have all of them. Which one for you guys? Are you like, man, we've played this so many times that you can just play it by heart where you almost don't even have to. think. All of them.

For me, none of them. For me, I'm always like, yeah, you have to sing. Do I remember this? Any prompter?

You ever use a prompter? No, no prompter yet. But I can see that in my future. But I've definitely had to have, you know, lyrics take to the ground before, but that's usually when we're playing something new that I,

that I want to, you know, make sure I remember. But with the hits and stuff, I get, if I don't think about it too much, I'll be okay. but you can also, like, luckily with a hit, the crowd will take over for you if you need to.

On the Bobby Bones Show now. Oh, Dominion. Hey, Matthew, a question for you first. Has your insurance gone up just generally? I did get a, I did get a suspicious call from our business manager suggesting that I up my life insurance policy for some reason. Can you, like, walk us through your last couple to few injuries? Oh, my God. Well, the last couple were I fell off a ladder.

a couple of years ago and broke the rib, punctured the lung, tore a ligament. And then just recently rolled a like side-by-side UTV thing and broke my pelvis in three spit places. So I think I should be good for another couple of years now. Yeah, it's funny because our business manager called all of us and said maybe we should spend less, just in case. I was just in case he spent all the money. Yeah, I don't know where that was coming.

Just the case the cash flow dried up suddenly. Yeah. That's funny. You guys are out and again, you guys are excellent live. It's no bad vibes 2023 tour. We got a lot of great artists that are coming out in various dates with you guys. My question for you guys is how do you look for openers? Like, what do you look for whenever you put people on a show with you?

Man, it's been really tough because it used to be, you know, just looking for someone who was available. Everyone's so busy. So we used to try to find somebody that could do the entire tour and that really limited us. And when it came time this time, we started to do that. And then we thought, well, man, why don't we just find people that we like and people that our fans will like that can just do maybe a couple of shows and see if we can put the pieces of the puzzle together like that? So, you know, yeah, we just try to find something that will be, you know, it's the no bad vibe store. So we're trying to find good vibes and happy energy and, you know, artists that can support that. And I feel like we got it.

Trevor, let's end on this. Give me a good Kenny Chesney story of something hanging out with Kenny where you just live in life or you're back, you know, in between shows. Give me a Kenny Chesney nugget to end with. Hmm. Well, let's see. There's so many. Let me think of one I can tell. You know, it's always fun is doing the ice bath.

This is the one thing that it's a little behind the scenes that people don't realize he travels with an ice bath. So it was fun. my, you know, I was out there with a couple of my kids and I got to torture my kids a little bit by sinking them on the ice bath and watching Kenny Chesney lean and whisper into their air for a couple minutes and talk them through it. So that was, that was interesting behind the scenes moment. That's pretty G-rated there. I like it. We made it mad. We made him mad this weekend. A couple of us were in, we're in Key West. And we kept, we were out on a boat and we kept FaceTiming him.

He was like, stop facetiming me. I cannot answer it right now. He's probably doing his own beach. He's doing his own beach living. Guys, love you guys. Love the music. Good luck. And hopefully we'll, I'm sure we'll see you soon.

All right. And don't forget, breakfast for dinner. You got my number. Hey. All right. Feel better, man. All right. There's like,

all right. Yeah. It's like when you sit someone at a party and you really want to go away to the next person, you're like, all right, well. All right, there they are. Oh, Dominion. Bye, guys.

I like breakfast for dinner. See you guys. See you. All right. There's a voicemail we got over the weekend. Hey, show. I was inspired by your scratch-off ticket segment, so I went a $10 one,

and I won $1,000. Yeah. Wow. Dang. We didn't win a $1,000. We spent a lot of money on it. I saw Mr. Beast bought a million dollars in scratch-offs. Yeah.

Did you win? I don't know the end result. He ended up losing $200,000. And I'm like, hmm, convenient, make me look like a little fish. Like he wanted...

Oh, Mr. Beast is very rich. Yeah, yeah, but he saw me do $2,000. I don't think he saw you. Oh, come on. Saw you. And he was like, oh, you want to see something?

Lunchbox, I'll do a million and make you look like a little fish. And that's what he did. He said that to you? I mean, that's, he was sending a message.

That's crazy. He bought a million dollars on scratch off since that didn't really. They brought like a dump truck and dumped them because they couldn't... Who scratched all that? No, no.

And that's the one thing. He did the loser way. He just scanned him. He didn't scratch. A million bucks I'd have done that too. It's this experiment at that point. It's not a bit. I guess unless he scratched him on YouTube every day, he did some at a time.

Right. Do something like that. But he literally just, I mean, how lame is that? I think it's interesting. We talked about it. He's worth 500 million bucks. Really? Yeah.

Yeah. Here is he looks like a little fish. He's just normal, dude. Wow. Yeah. Here's one more voicemail. Good morning studio. I just wanted a comment on how you guys.

were, I guess, very hated when you first moved into Nashville. And honestly, I remember when our station up here was playing you. And I'm like, I don't really like this guy. But honestly, I listen to you guys every morning. Love to hear it. Was a former broadcaster, too, in radio. Did mostly sports play-by-play. But thank you very much for what you do.

You guys are real. I love it. Thanks, Bobby, and to the entire crew. I knew there was something about this guy and some sort of broadcasting. To hear him? Yeah, I thought it would be like, you know, three, two, bottom of the night. Or, welcome to Tradyo. Saw it, Colin, and, you know, but he definitely has a really good voice.

Here's Amy's pile of stories. Some people swear by never washing their jeans. Like, they think it just ruins the way they fit. I think that it does wear them. And then some people will also wash them, but only inside out occasionally. I think jeans are definitely cleaned strategically by most folks. Some people put them in the freezer. I think most people just wash their jeans, but yes, there are groups to do this.

So the design director for Levi's, he says he personally washes his after every 30 to 50 wears. Wow. And then if he... But what about, like, sometimes I get food on them, chocolate on them. Yeah, yeah. Maybe spot treat. He said he recommends washing them alone on gentle, cycle, cold water inside out to prevent fading. You hang them up outside to dry and never put them in the dryer.

That's a lot of work. Never put them in the dryer. I don't like how clothes fit. Just hanging. And we have some clothes, and I have some clothes that I will only wash in cold water and then don't dry them. But you talk about not fitting right.

They don't fit right then. Much less. Well, some stuff you put it in the dryer, it's going to shrink. Yeah, but if I just hang in it, it never fits right. Like if I'm dry hanging it, is it for you?

Really? All my sun dresses, man, they just. Yeah, me too. If it says lay flat to dry, like how are, How are you? Or how are you hanging it? Outside on the clothespin. Are you, though? You know, that's what we used to do for sure.

Yeah. I want one. The laundry room, we have a little, like, bar. And the hangers have the little clips on them. So the wet, we'll clip them in and hang them. Maybe try laying flat. Maybe it's just, I don't want to miss with laundry. I just figured it out. Why am I messing with laundry?

I'm done. I'm done. I'm done. Thank you. All right. Adults who partake in short daytime naps could be doing more than cashing up on sleep. new research suggests that they're going to be slowing the rate at which their brain shrinks. Because as we age, our brain naturally gets smaller. But people who nap, they put that off. Hey, buddy.

Hey, Einstein over there. Hello. Yeah. You paying attention. The story was for you. He is getting older, though. He's like, actually, relativity, he says, is that it? Yeah, well, this study didn't say the duration time that would be good,

but previous research says 30 minutes is best. So that means his head's going to explode. going to get so big from a long naps he takes. It doesn't grow bigger. It just keeps it from shrinking. It's not like a turnip. You know, I'm planning it grows. My mind is sharper than all y'all.

Yes, we agree. Carly Pierce revealed the way she got Chris Stapleton to get on her song. We don't fight anymore. And what she did was she DM'd Morgan, Chris's wife. And so she says, hey, yeah, if you want to get anybody to do anything, go to the wife first. Mark. In. And that's how it happened.

Interesting. I'm trying to think if someone wanted you for something, if it'd be beneficial for them to go to Caitlin. No, go to any. Don't do that. No, because Caitlin is not, she's very much, I think you should have more balance. And I used to be like, well, listen, I have to make money. She's like, we're good. We don't need to make more money.

We're good. We don't need money. As in not we're so rich, we're good. But she's like, I'm fine. We don't, I don't have to have a lot of money. I have to, like, say, you can spend money on this. She doesn't like to spend money. So for her, that's never, because I'm like, I'm finally successful.

I can, and I got the wrong person because she does not care. And it's a great trade. I'd much rather have that. But sometimes I would just like to be like, why don't you go shopping? She's like, I don't want to go shopping. I just want to hang out. Go shopping. And it's awesome overall.

But sometimes I would, you know, I just like to be, hey. No, it's tough. She ain't going to do that for work. Now, if it's about, like, life balance or something that's fun for me, She often encouraged me to go to fun things. Like, hey, don't work. Go do this because you'll have fun doing it. Like, that's really her thing.

Or we'll have fun doing it. Okay, so if someone wants to get you to do something fun, go through her. That would be it. Boom. If it's there, you could go through Mike D. I don't do it because I don't. Work-wise? Oh, boy.

Here comes all the DMs. Mike, I trust Mike D as much as anybody I've ever trusted as far as this world. Music-wise, too. What do we call that a gatekeeper? Mike's, I, yeah, but I'm not much of a gate. What kind of yard am I, you know? Mike D, Morgan number one, they're probably the two that would be the person

to go to that I would trust. And then Eddie. I don't they, I don't check my DMs. You don't? Not really. Okay, no. What else? That's my mom. Eddie doesn't make of fun stuff too. Yeah. What did you say?

Oh, I said, I'm Amy. That's my pie. All right, thank you. That was Amy's pile of storage. It's time for the good news. With Bobby. Tell me something good. You know sometimes, even here on the show or listeners, they're like, well, something happened to the fence. And it's on the property line of me and my neighbor.

And we don't know who's got to replace. That happens sometimes because it's right on the line. It's happening to me. Okay. Yeah. How'd that end up? We slid it at 50-50. Good for you guys.

You came to a conclusion. I like that. Well, here, you got people, and there's part of a section of a shoreline up in the Northeast. And the city's like, it ain't ours. And they're like, yeah, it is. And they're like, nope, we ain't cleaning it up. There's trash all over it. And then people are like, you literally run it.

You put rules on it. Why don't? So the people are like, we're just going to do it ourselves. So what they do, they get on Facebook. They go, hey, can everybody show up? They start pinning stuff on those little boards. And that's exactly what happened. So for months, they were just like, somebody please clean it.

They did it themselves. They gathered 3,000 pounds of trash in this quarter mile area. It was almost like they were using it for a dump. There's so much trash there. So they did the, months-long cleanup. Randy and Kathy's who started it. And now they're like, hey,

we could probably do this in other places nearby. Sometimes the city, the county, they don't have the manpower. And if you really want it, sure, go do it yourself. Like Arnold Schwarzenegger, he did the potholes himself. Yeah, but then he got in trouble. Because they were like, that was purposeful.

But the person who drew the wieners over the potholes in another town, that was funny. That made them go fix it. That's what I'm talking about. That's figuring it out. But no, I just want to shout out, you know, Randy, who first said, okay, we can do something about it. Then Kathy who hopped in and that's it. They cleaned it up and the town's better because of it. That's it. Thank you. And that's what it's all about. That was tell me something good. A win is a win. A win. A win is a win. I don't care which I'm

saying. Yep, that's me. Clifford Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, my basketball and college football journey or my career in sports media.
