Welcome to Monday's show.
Morning studio.
Morning.
Hope everybody's weekend was good.
I guess we spent most of it together.
Yeah, we were all.
Yeah.
So I kind of know how your weekends were, but we'll talk about it.
Let's go around the room and do it, get to know.
give me if you go to
it doesn't matter the coffee place
let's say you go to Starbucks what is your order
your typical order on
a random day Amy go ahead
Alma milk latte
What is in that?
Smallest size
So but what is that
Just espresso shot and
almond milk
That's those two together
Yeah I'll either get it hot or ice
Depending on the season
I do not
I don't like coffee to begin with
But
cold coffee
Yeah yeah there's no point
My wife loves the cold too.
I don't get it.
You want it nice and warm, man, so you can hug the cup, regardless of what season.
I like that feeling, too.
I love it's very comforting.
I never hug the cup, though.
Oh, have you never tried this?
Like, at home on a Saturday with a saucer?
Who's at home on a Saturday?
A Saturday morning.
I'm usually out grinding away trying to make a living part of it.
Okay.
All right.
Lunchbox?
I've never had a cup of coffee, so I don't have a coffee order.
I'll go and get maybe a muffin or a breakfast sandwich.
and I do like it when it gets cold outside
because I can go to the coffee shop
and get me a nice hot chocolate.
I love hot chocolate.
Somebody got him a hot cocoa
when she had a Christmas once.
Oh, Amy.
And he was all upset.
No, you want to know why.
Because it made three gallons at a time.
Yeah, you love it.
I can't drink.
That's a lot.
I can't drink.
Wow, that's like the Costco of hot chocolate.
It was up from a William Sonoma.
William Sonoma.
It made three gallons of hot chocolate.
William Sonoma.
I'm like, Amy, I can't drink three.
I think three gallons of hot chocolate one time, but I love hot chocolate.
Sounds like maybe you could if you tried.
Why do you need three gallons of hot chocolate?
Is that for like a soccer team?
But I don't think you have to only make three gallons.
I think you made up to three gallons at a time.
Oh, okay.
He could have made way less.
Thank you for understanding that.
Eddie.
Yeah, I get a venty vanilla skinny latte.
Talk me through it.
I don't know what it is.
Okay, well, I would imagine.
I heard somebody order that one time and I got it and it's delicious.
What size is Vinti?
medium.
No.
No.
It's the biggest?
It's the biggest?
It's the biggest?
It's medium.
Oh, dang.
I thought that was medium.
It's a probably non-fat milk because it's a skinny.
And then it's got the espresso shots in it.
And then sugar-free vanilla pumps.
Because he ordered the skinny.
Yeah, the skinny.
So then when I order a tall, what size is that?
Small.
Okay.
And you all sing about this in your Starbucks song, a tall.
It's a small.
No, I know that.
Oh, yeah.
You're right.
It's Grande, not the biggest.
Because it's the medium.
That's why at Starbucks is confusing.
Br, I don't know.
So I'll get a tall.
That's the small.
Wait, don't get to mess me up because I don't like coffee until a couple years ago.
I never can taste a coffee either, like lunchbox, but I'll do espresso.
But I'll do a tea.
I'll do a chai tea latte, which I think just means there's a shot of espresso.
A dirty chai tea latte.
You put milk in that?
I don't know what happens.
If there's a latte, there's milk.
Okay, I don't know.
A dirty chai latte.
Because that's a lot.
What makes it dirty?
The espresso.
shot. Oh my goodness. And then
almond milk
and then
sugar-free vanilla. And then
they have some cinnamon out spragal loochevine on there.
Question. So if you didn't get the
is, are you saying no, espresso?
No, espresso.
Nespresso is a brand. Sorry.
If you don't get that, does that mean it doesn't have
caffeine? Correct. Correct. Is that true?
That's the only reason I get. I'm sure there's
a mild, mild, super fractional
amount in the chah. I don't know.
But yeah, that's what that is. I don't know. I hate to taste.
of it. But if I get that, that's what I have to get.
Man, I used to get a
mocha, white chocolate mocha, but that I
found out they had the same calories as two whoppers.
I'm like, I got to start drinking that crap.
So here you go. Tall's 12 fluid ounces.
Grande is 16. Vinti is 20.
The Trenta is 30.
Whoa. Who drinks that thing?
That's the soccer team. Dude, I only say tall is what I've heard before.
I'm be honest with you. I'm like Eddie. I never feel like
I'm going to like try any of the sizes out because I may say
the wrong one. Why do they do that? And I get a
30 gallon or like lunchbox of espresso.
Well, it's Starbucks. It's what they do.
It's their thing. What language is that?
Great question. Tall. What language is that?
Tall is probably English. Where tall means small.
Well, Bronte.
Tall, usually, like, who's the talls?
Well, there's a short, though. There is a short?
There's a short? There's a tall. There's a vent. I don't know, dude.
We're out of here.
We're going home.
Let's open up the mail bag.
We read it on the air.
It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag.
Hello, Bobby Bones.
This past Saturday, I had to bring my daughter to a 9 a.m. birthday party at Chuckie Cheese.
It was early.
Very early for a Saturday.
But one good thing was it was over by 11, and kids can care less what time of the day a birthday party is.
I think if you do one that early, they should supply coffee.
What's the earliest in the morning that you should take your kids to a birthday party?
What about the rest of the show?
Does the quality of gift you give for a birthday party
depend on how inconvenient
the party time is for you?
Signed a recent AM partier.
I'm going to go to the parents here, Amy?
I don't know. I've never thought about this.
9 a.m. birthday party. How would you feel?
I feel fine. But I mean, I'm a morning person,
so this doesn't bother me at all.
And then also, yes, bonus by 11,
you still have the rest of your day
depending on how you look at it.
So, yeah, but I think if I was throwing a morning
party, I would have coffee for the parents.
Weird thing about Chuckie cheese, though, it's pizza.
Right.
It's a little early for pizza.
Yeah, it is a little early.
And sure, you want to have a soccer birthday party.
I mean, you don't really get the pizza rocking at 9 a.m.
Yeah, I guess it's probably about 10.45 right before it's over.
Yeah.
I have a slice of pizza.
Oh, I say started at 1045.
Eddie?
Yeah, I'm kind of with her, man.
That's a little too early.
And if you're going to make, and this is more for the parents because they're right.
Like, the kids don't care.
They don't know what time it is.
They'll eat pizza at 6 a.m. if I give it to them.
But for us, that's a sad.
sacrifice to get up and take the kids to Chuck E. Cheese at 9 in the morning, 10 in the morning.
Yes, coffee and donuts would be real nice.
So then does it make the day more difficult because then you have the rest of the day to figure out?
Yes.
What the kids are doing then, even though they've already had a birthday party, where if it was like three, you could wake up later, kills more of the day.
See, you don't necessarily have to leave Chuckie Cheese when the party's over, so I would stay there for four more hours.
You just chill?
Yeah, you could do that, yeah.
Oh, you think you're serious.
Oh, yeah.
Chuck and Cheese is the best time killer for kids.
It's expensive.
So you buy like they have these cards or whatever and you can charge by the hour.
So you can do a four-hour card, let them go.
They have unlimited for hours?
Yeah, for an hour.
Yeah, you can pay for an hour of games.
And then they can play a game.
Then you can steal the card and you can play a game and you can give them the card back.
And the whole family can play on one card.
Yeah, it's awesome.
Is that frowned upon?
Probably.
I can't believe I just said that on air.
Well, no, you can.
Okay, so 9 a.m.
early or not too early? Not too early. I feel like
you're looking to fill things for your kids to do
all day long, no matter how it looks.
Too early. Give me some coffee and donuts.
You're going to make me get up that early. There you go.
That's the answer. Thank you. Close it up.
We got your email and we have the
closed Bobby Feltag. Yeah.
Ray Mundo is our audio editor. He's that
producer. He runs the show, all the buttons.
But Ray, you saw a press release?
Yeah, it's for Folds of Honor, the softball
game, celebrity softball game that happens
around CMA Fest every year.
Isn't this like controversial last year?
Yes.
It always is.
Like what happened?
Because lunchbox didn't get to play or they asked him to.
That was the year before.
They asked me to play.
And then at the last minute they were like, no, you're not going to.
What's that last year?
I think it was last year where they were like, we want you to commentate instead.
Yeah.
It was dramatic.
Yeah, that was pretty bad.
And the year before that, they invited me, but then I didn't have a locker or anything.
I was just there.
And it was like, no uniform.
I had to just stand there.
And they were like, oh, do you need a uniform?
I had to go get one out of a box.
Dang.
Like your name wasn't even on the mouth.
You keep going back, though, huh?
Well, I mean, I think it's going to get better.
It's going to get better every year.
And, yeah, it's a good cause, man.
That's the second reason.
Yeah, okay.
So it's the Folds of Honor softball game.
There are a lot of celebrities there.
And Ray, what the press release say?
So I can read a little bit.
It says this year's action-packed game is going to bring together
celebrity players including Jelly Roll, Riley Green, Sam Hunt, Brett Young, Ernest,
Ray Lynn, Charles Eston, Ten Penny, Chris Lane, Warren,
Ziders, John Christ, Sean
Booth, and many more.
Wow.
And he even left off a few.
Julia Cole, Dene Hayes.
Ooh, Dene's a good get, because
she can actually play.
I guess the point is, Ray wanted to bring it up.
Ray, why did you not bring that up?
I was just wondering, is lunch playing in it?
You know he's playing in it. You know
he's wanting to read. Is he playing in it?
Right now, I feel like he's looking for his name.
You know, Ray brought it up
because Lunchbox's name is not anywhere
on the press release.
He's going to the website now.
Maybe they didn't mention radio people.
Well, no, there's one on there.
Who?
Jeremy Looper?
It's like a media person.
Looper, man.
The rock show.
Oh, that's who that is.
It's Looper.
Oh, my God.
They didn't even put lunch on there?
Man.
Loper's in this building.
That's crazy, dude.
Did you commit to playing it already?
Man, I haven't been asked.
So you haven't even asked to play it?
No, not I've been asked.
Scuba?
What is your take?
I'm pretty sure.
I thought we talked about it in the hallway and you said you had to check your schedule with your wife and stuff.
No, I've never been asked this season.
Okay.
So it's not even bad that he's left off because he has a committed.
Yeah.
I mean, you're definitely going to be in.
I just was waiting for a confirmation and I'm not chasing you down for it.
So if you're in or you're in or not, you're not.
I mean, I don't even know when it is.
No one has told me anything.
It's going to be Monday, June 3rd at 630.
Monday, June 3rd.
Let me check the calendar.
Why are they so late on lunchbox?
Like, it seems like they've already.
It seems like they're full now.
Yeah, all these people already committed.
Yeah, yeah, man, man.
My calendar is wide open that day.
But you've had it in your email, so you could have committed.
No, no, literally have nothing.
Scuba?
It was a hallway conversation.
Okay, got it.
So, okay, well, so it doesn't hurt that he wasn't in the press release.
I mean, because I did their bowling tournament, too.
No, I didn't.
That one holds on it.
What was that?
Just another charity.
Folds of blankets.
So are you back this year or no?
I would say, if they want to reach out and invite me,
it's in their court.
The ball is in their field.
Interesting.
Baseball knowledge.
Softball field.
And what would that invite look like just so they can know?
I mean.
Just an email?
No, no, no.
I would like maybe a video like, hey, you know, we'd really like you to come out.
Maybe a promposal kind of type thing where they show up with banners and balloons.
Like a goat or some balloons.
Yeah.
Are your feelings hurt that they did not make more of an effort to get to you?
No, I wouldn't.
I'm not offended.
I think usually they'll wait for the star.
guest. Like last, they announced that big.
Yeah. Like now playing at the
Grammys, the last thing they announce is Taylor Swift.
Yeah, they're like, surprise performances, and then they're like, boom,
they hit them. Okay, well, balls in your court, folds of honor.
No, balls are your field. Sorry, balls in your field,
folds of honor. That's right. Folds oner. Let's see it. You do a promposal.
He's happy to play the game.
It's time for the good news.
With Amy.
Tell me something good.
Another story that gives me hope that I might find my Aggie ring one day because this
woman was at the beach in Galveston, Texas, having a little fun.
And then she realized her wedding ring was gone off her finger.
So she hit up the Galveston Island Treasure Hunters Club, which is a group of metal detecting enthusiasts.
And she asked them for help and two members of the club.
They were like, oh, hey, actually, we found this ring already.
So bam, she got it back.
That's so cool.
What a club.
I love that, dude.
What kind of fun was she having where she didn't.
I mean, in the waves?
Yeah.
Okay, got it.
But if it's in the waves, you probably lost the water.
Oh, she found, they found that in the water?
Well, here's the thing.
You get in the waves and then your hand gets wet and then the ring slips off, maybe in the sand.
Didn't know that.
And then sunblock, that kind of makes your hand slipper here.
True.
Don't wear it.
There's a lot of factors that contribute to this.
That's a great story.
And I hope you find your Abby ring.
It's my Aggie ring.
Sorry, we got an Abby that works here.
And what's the reward?
500,000, I believe.
No, it keeps going up.
I think it's $1,500.
and I didn't even want that to be the reward.
It's $1,500.
You can find Amy's Aggie ring from college.
It's so generous of you.
It wasn't my idea.
Lunchbox yelled it.
It was like, you offered it.
And I felt bad taking the offer back.
No, I said $500.
And Amy goes, only $500.
That's what happens.
But I don't think I even offered $500.
You did.
Because then Amy offered $50.
So it's $550 at one point.
Wow.
$5.50.
All right.
That's a good.
That was tell me something good.
All right.
that you're out.
Name the celebrity that said it.
Here's a clip.
Keep my wife's name out your fucking.
Dude, that was crazy.
That's Will Smith.

That's so true.
You have to surround yourself with people that want to work.
I'm just kidding about this one.
Who is it?
You can't tell who that is?
No.
Maybe I just can't because it's in front of me, but...
I have no idea who is.
It seems like nobody wants to work these days.
That's so true.
You have to surround yourself with people that want to work.
What the?

It seems like nobody wants to work these days.

Interesting interpretation.
Good for you.

Oh, I wrote a name.

It's Christian Bale.
Eddie?
That's Christian Bale.

But that was a big pop culture moment.
Yeah, but that wasn't that big.
Yeah.

Lunchboxes have been eliminated.

Okay, correct.
She got it right.
Bad baby.

Catch me outside, girl.

But that's not him.
That wasn't the rock?

Who is that?
That was hilarious

And that's the bottom line.
That's the
I still think that's the rock.
I still think it is.
One more, one more.
And that's the bottom line.
Any answer there?

Yeah, because I still think it's the rock.
And that's, um, okay.
Hulk Hogan?
Incorrect.
Hey, finish the saying, guys.

Always look for the helpers.

Always look for the helpers.

Oh, God. Who said that? It was like,
you're like, yeah, there's a big, who is that?
Kelly Osborne. And then finally,
here you go. Charlie bit my
being. Yeah, Charlie. Charlie, from Charlie
Bit Myfinger. There you go.

There's two golden rules that any man should live by.
Rule one, never mess with a country girl.
You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes.
And rule two, never mess with her friends either.
We always say that trust your girlfriends.
I'm Anna Sinfield.
And in this new season of the girlfriends,
oh my God, this is the same man.
a group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist.
I felt like I got hit by a truck.
I thought, how could this happen to me?
The cops didn't seem to care.
So they take matters into their own hands.
I said, oh, hell no.
I vowed.
I will be his last target.
He's going to get what he deserves.
Listen to the girlfriends.
Trust me, babe.
On the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcast.
We have a lot of new listeners.
that come in and out and recently we've started this show in Cleveland and had a listener that
message me and is like, hey, is the lunchbox thing where he doesn't know music?
Is that fake?
Like, are you guys faking that for entertainment?
To which I say, absolutely not.
We can't fake this thing for 15 years.
He doesn't even like music.
It's not even that he's just bad at it.
He doesn't like it so he doesn't get better.
Like music's not your thing, right?
No, it's just kind of there.
If it's on the radio or I happen to be at a concert, I'll live.
listen to it, but it's not like I'm going to go seek it out.
I don't go home and like, oh, I got to listen to this album, man.
Well, everybody's not a stoner from the 70s, but really has no passion.
That's what I imagine people are.
So he knows nothing about music.
And so I will give Lunchbox a famous lead singer.
See if he can name the band that they sing for.
And I'll give him seven.
And if he can get five out of seven, I'll give him 20 bucks.
That way, we can prove he's not faking it because this guy loves his money.
I hate to tell you, I'm pretty good at bands, though.
I know a lot of lead singers.
All right.
You get seven.
You get five out of seven your winner.
Good.
Give me 20 bucks.
I'm going seven for seven.
Here we go.
Tom York.
He's in trouble.
The who?
No, radio head.
Oh.
Robert Plant.
Led Zeppelin.
Good job.
Hey.
Yeah.
Told you guys, I know music.
Stephen Tyler.
Oh, that's easy.
That's Aerosmith.
Good.
Yeah.
See?
Jared Leto
Oh yeah, we partied together on stage
30 seconds to Mars
That's correct
But I think they were just like anybody from the crowd
Want to run on stage and he did
Yeah, because it was him and like 30 other people
Yeah, they started pointing at people
And I realized he never pointed at me
But I was like, man, these security guards have no idea
He's pointing at so let me go ahead and get on stage
And we jammed out
James Hetfield
Metallica
That's correct
Dang
Good job, good job, you got four
You get one more.
You win.
I told you this.
Easy.
Jim Morrison.
I do know this, actually.
Go ahead.
The Ramones.
Wow.
So close.
It's not perfect.
I don't want to make them feel better.
What?
The doors.
I thought you guys, I thought I got it.
I thought I nailed it.
You guys tricked me.
So if you get this one, you win.
If you miss this one, you lose.
He's got four right.
It all comes down to this one?
It all comes down to this.
That's fine.
How confident are you?
Very confident.
confident depending on the band you name.
Well, yeah, well, that's all trivia.
Well, depending on the question you ask me,
you can have double the money if you choose the extra hard one.
Oh, I'll take double the money then.
That's $40?
But it's harder.
That's okay.
It's hard, though, dude.
It's hard.
Well, yeah, yeah.
I mean, listen, what's double hard?
I mean, listen, school, I'd always go for the extra credit.
Even you're going to get it wrong.
You've got to go for it.
So I'm going to give him the singer.
He's got to tell me the band.
Okay.
Tell me, hey, will you give me the one that was going to, that I would have gotten so I can try that?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Eddie better.
Oh, that's Pearl Jam.
So you don't, you don't want the money.
That's the easy one.
Dang!
That's Eddie's band.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right, isn't that who you like?
Yeah, Pearl Jam, yeah.
This is the hard one.
Okay, give me, if that was the hard one, this is the hard, hard, I think I got it.
Yeah.
Kenny Rogers.
Like the guy that was in our studio a while back?
Yeah, rest in peace.
It's been a while, yeah.
He's in a band?
Kenny Rogers with the lead singer of what band?
I told you it was extra hard.
Lunchbox, I don't even think I know this one, dude.
We've talked about it on the show, though, a couple of times.
I never knew Kenny Rogers was in a band.
He was a pop star before he was a country star.
I know that he sang a song with Dolly Parton.
Islands in the stream.
I was going to name the song.
You didn't have to take my thunder.
Go ahead.
There's no thunder.
I need an answer.
The Wacky Boys.
How did you get that?
There's no way.
It's not right.
What is it?
Like galaxy, galaxy?
What is it?
The first edition.
Ah, first edition.
Oh, man.
And they have the song,
Uh,
then what condition my condition was in?
Dang.
He's a posture.
So you got zero money.
Now,
I can give you another one,
but it's a plus minus five bucks.
So if you get it right,
it's not as hard as that one.
If you get it right,
you're plus five bucks.
But if you get it wrong,
you owe Eddie five bucks.
Okay.
I like this.
You're in?
I'm in.
Okay. Here we go.
Brian Johnson.
Brian Johnson?
You never heard of him?
Never. I went to high school with a Brian Johnson.
Well, a man was in.
I played soccer.
He was two years older than me.
Go ahead.
Gosh, he wasn't in a band, though.
That you know of.
Man, Brian Johnson.
Brian Johnson.
Five seconds?
He was in.
In The Eagles.
Not a bad guess.
Incorrect.
You know it?
ACDC, yeah.
So you owe five bucks to Eddie.
You want to go again?
Yeah.
Same thing.
Let's go.
Chester Bennington.
Lincoln Park.
Correct.
You're back to even.
No money for you.
No money for you.
Back to even.
You want to go again?
Yeah.
We're going to keep going.
We're going to make five, lose five.
I'm about to make a hundred.
Chris Cornell.
I've heard of him.
Ah, he's not, no, it's not that one.
Which one is it not in your life?
It's not Slipknot. It's not Slipknot.
That'd be Corey Taylor.
You don't have to tell me. I'd have told you that.
Smashing pumpkins.
What the?
Wow.
Wow.
That's wrong.
Soundgarden.
I would have also.
No.
Audio slave.
Sound garden.
Black hole son.
Black hole son.
Won't you come?
That's $5 for me.
Okay.
Okay. Stupid. That was my first instinct.
Okay. No, slip not wise.
No, I had sound garden in there.
You're down five bucks. You want another one?
Yeah, I do.
You could be down ten. That's fine.
I'll give you the lead singer. Tell me the band.
But you got to pay Eddie.
Yeah, that's fine.
Okay. Ozzy Osbourne.
Black Sabbath.
Correct.
Oh, he's back to zero.
I know my stuff, man.
Last one.
Yeah, 20 bucks.
Okay.
No, if it's 20 bucks, I'm in to make the money.
Okay, go ahead.
Because I got to pay the money.
Go ahead, do it.
I tell you what.
$20.
Now, let's do $10, but you pay Eddie if you lose.
I'll pay you if you win.
Okay.
He may nail this one.
And no, it's super quick.
I don't know.
Or?
Okay, Steve Harwell.
No change.
I think he gets it.
Never heard of him.
Oh.
Steve Harwell.
Man, is Steve Harwell alive or dead?
No, we don't ask questions here.
No, we don't.
For a dollar, I can answer that question.
Ooh, a dollar off?
Yeah.
For a dollar, I can answer your question.
I think he's dead.
Do you want to cost a dollar?
No, rest in peace, Steve.
He killed Steve.
Oh, so now he's alive.
Dang.
Do you know it?
No clue. I don't know who this is.
Mike, you know it?
So it's Lamuria, a dumb band.
Mike has to have him.
Go ahead, lunchbox with the answer?
Steve.
You can have a dollar.
Harwell.
Yeah, for $2, I can sing you the opening note of one of their biggest songs.
Oh, you got to do that lunch.
Yeah, give me the opening note, man.
For $2.
Ma.
What?
That's a note.
I mean, that's a note.
Oh, I thought you meant like, you were going to sing me it.
That costs $2, so now you're down $12.
Oh, my gosh.
I didn't know.
I thought we were singing me something.
Do you want to know alive or dead?
No.
Okay.
I need an answer then.
Yeah, give me alive or dead.
Dead.
$13.
Oh, crap.
Doesn't help me any.
Give me the Ramones.
You owe $80 $13.
Yeah.
My.
My Sharona?
It's just a note.
My na, my na, na, na, na.
Na, na, na, na.
Oh, rest in peace.
I know so.
Smash mouth.
Somebody once told me the world is going to roll me.
Lunchbox Joe, 80, 13.
He just recently.
He recently died, man.
Pay me, my friend.
Pay me.
However, let's hold it because we can give him a chance to win it back later.
Oh, I'm back.
He's back, baby.
Here's a voicemail.
Good morning studio.
I was listening to Eddie saying that his little flowers are not coming up for the butterfly garden.
Eddie, just because it rains twice in a month doesn't mean that it doesn't need water.
Water every day.
Water the flowers.
They will grow.
Why is she yelling at me?
It rains every other day here.
That's the tone someone has with me when they think I'm stupid.
Dang, man.
Yeah.
She thinks you're stupid.
Dude, I looked yesterday again, too.
No flowers growing.
But you're not watering it.
It rained yesterday.
It rained every...
It rained once like six days.
And then it rains while we're sleeping.
You don't know that.
That's called deep.
Oh, that doesn't count.
All right, here's another one.
Hey, bye.
You truly bring me up on my darkest day to listen to you daily.
And y'all just encourage me so much to be...
positive. Anyways, I'm going to say, I've been listening to that Jackson Dean, and he's pretty badass. I don't hear a lot about him. He should be talking about more. Love you guys.
Odd that she knows Jackson Dean? Yeah. Pretty high.
Oh, yes, she knows him. Yeah, just kind of pivoted. Oh, as a person? Like, as a, like, personally.
I just want to say I love the show. But also, you should play the Jackson Dean song. That's all the number 18 on the chart last week. I do like Jackson a lot.
Here's Amy's pile of stories. Did you know that Elvis almost recorded? I will always love you.
Yes.
And he didn't because Dolly wouldn't let him have any writing credits.
Dolly told us that story here.
Oh, I forgot about that.
Okay.
Yeah, Elvis wanted to record it, but Colonel Tom Parker was like, he'll record it,
but only if he can have some of the writing.
And she's like, no, I wrote that by myself.
I love that.
Elvis loved it and he sang it to Priscilla when they got divorced.
Really?
He sang that while she was, like, leaving?
Well, but that's why Dolly wrote the song because she was actually leaving.
No, I get it.
But can you see Elvis being like, she's out the door with her bags like,
But that's what that song was written.
Like, even though you're breaking up.
Wait, but do you think some people use that as their wedding song?
Yeah.
I think it's like Eric Clapton, you look wonderful tonight.
Not a lot, not a romantic song.
It's not.
It's a song about hurry up.
Like, it's late in the evening.
You're not in the close to where I'm wedding to do, do.
But when I ask, do you look, when you ask, do I look all right.
I say, darling, you look wonderful.
The whole reason is to get her out of the bathroom to get her going.
Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, you look good.
Let's go.
We're late.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, what's the Brooks?
Yeah, the Brooks and Dunn.
Leon Moon is not a romantic song.
Leon Moon is sending a bar being sad.
When the sun goes down.
Okay, yeah.
As most every night beneath the light of a neon moon.
That's an old smoky bar with the neon moon.
Wow.
That was pretty crazy at your wedding when that song came on.
And then the neon moon came down from the...
You mean that song came on?
You mean Ronnie Dun played it?
Yeah.
He walked out and played it.
That song came on.
You make it sound like the DJ played it.
You may know this one.
No, Ronnie came out and sang it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No big deal.
Ronnie Dunl is there.
Okay, so parents, if you've ever felt isolated or lonely, you're not alone.
This whole poll was conducted by Ohio State University,
and lonely parenting is a thing.
And it's like you feel isolated from your friends and maybe there are other family
that are out there. So you have to get ahead of it or it just can snowball into something more serious.
Is it a BetterHelp commercial? Oh. Yeah, you go to BetterHelp.com.
But it's not a commercial. Ash. No. Oh, got it. No, I just found it. Like, I think for a lot of
parents, you can get so wrapped up into the demands of what all you have to do at home. And then
you're next thing you know, you're like, when's the last time I talked to a friend or saw a friend
or did something besides work or parent? I can see what some of my friends that have babies.
Like, I just want to talk to another adult. Sure, because the baby didn't talk.
Because of baby.
Yep.
Yeah.
Or that can be.
But like, have four kids.
You will never be lonely.
All right.
I have a list of the top things that irritate us every day.
Waking up.
I got one.
Co.
What?
Lunchbox.
No.
That just makes a list.
The general list.
It says lunchbox.
This is a national thing.
Not in this room.
No, I know.
But like it's such an irritant that it makes like number nine.
Because everyone's listening.
Go ahead.
It's true.
I'll read through the list.
You say, yay, nay.
When someone doesn't clean up after their dog.
I don't leave my house enough.
for that to affect me.
Like, when I go hiking and someone doesn't pick it up,
it's so frustrating because I feel like I'm dodging.
I would be annoyed if I left my house.
So, but I'm not annoyed by that because I don't see it,
but I can see what that'd be annoying.
Hot holes.
Oh, yeah.
Golly.
The worst.
People that don't use turn signals.
Yeah.
That doesn't bother me.
I drive slow.
I don't matter.
You guys are the ones.
Bad parkers who take up more than one space.
I don't take it more than one space, but I can't really fit the lines.
You all need to go to jail.
I hate people.
I just don't like widen enough.
Like I just try to angle in there and then I try to back up and then my side view almost hits their side view as I'm trying to back up.
And then it's a whole thing and I'm just like screw this and I just go back home.
But it looks like you're one of those people that maybe is trying to take a two spots so that you don't get deemed.
I'm not. I just can't park.
Yeah.
Yeah, but we don't know that.
We just see the car and how you parked.
Trust. Trust in me.
All right, what else?
Cyclists who hog the road round out the list.
Whoa.
Respect to cyclists.
I don't see many cyclists.
I drive in and out at odd times.
Driving to work.
It's still dark.
Nobody's really working out.
Drive home.
It's lunch.
Cyclists are eating.
There's a road that I take actually to get to your house.
It's pretty whiny and there's not, it's not a wide road at all.
And people cycle down that road, like hardcore all the time.
And I'm thinking, I don't even know how they think that's safe to do.
I get that they have to get from point A to point B, but they're not paying attention.
And I've almost hit them.
Oh, no.
It's not surprising.
Who's not paying attention?
You can't park, she can't drive.
I can drive.
And I was a cyclist at one point in time, so I know that, I know how much I had to pay attention when I was biking.
All right, thank you.
I made me.
That's my pile.
That was Amy's pile of stories.
It's time for the good news.
With Bobby.
Damn it's something good.
Last Monday night, a police dog named Ronan from the Houston Police Department helped the officers catch a bad guy.
Ronan didn't stop there.
They chased down a robbery suspect.
Then spotted a puppy title.
an old box spring in the woods and led the cops over to save the puppy as well.
Wow.
So after securing the robbery suspect, he then took off and they were like, where, Ronan?
And he goes over and stops.
And there was a puppy that had been like neglected and tied up by their owner.
Ronan is a cop.
Ronan's a dog.
Right.
A dog cop cop.
A dog cop, dog.
Dang.
Rent-10, basically.
That's amazing.
Did people know Rent-10 10?
K-9 cop?
Yeah.
I remember seeing Rent-10 on like HBO or something.
though, right?
Yeah, but I never saw it.
Morgan, Rent-Tenten. Never heard of it?
Not even a little bit. Like, not ringing a bell.
That's the question.
Not did you watch it. Did you know of it?
I heard of Rintin-Tin.
Lassie. But you probably know that just from references.
I do know Lassie.
Lassie was...
It was a dog and a movie.
What kind of dog? Was Lassie a movie?
It was a TV show.
Oh, yeah. I mean, on TV.
And it could fly and play basketball.
That was Airbud.
Oh, Airbud. My bad. I'm confused.
All right, there you go.
Ronin.
I mean, shout out.
That's what it's all about.
There you go.
That was tell me something good.
It's a version of lunchbox is saying, money gone.
Sorry.
You know, he says that.
Like, if you find money, you just get to keep it.
But there's a guy he saw on Instagram that you could buy a lovely and cheap pair of earrings.
And so they were 18th carrot, rose gold, Cartier, diamonds, about 13 bucks.
Whoa.
Which again, that does.
just feels like a scam.
Yes.
So he bought two pair.
Yeah.
And then what they did, the scam was they sticker changed him $13,000.
So they said buy it for $13,000.
He bought it and they changed it to $13,000.
So then they got into a big legal fight.
And so it turns out the earrings were real.
It was a glitch, right?
Yes.
He got it for $13.
So $13 was the accident.
It wasn't a scam.
They messed up in the promotion of it.
they meant to put 13,000.
He bought him for 13,
got him, and they're like, no, we need them back.
And he's like,
money's gone, sorry, or earrings gone,
sorry.
Yeah.
And so all of a sudden they go to court,
he gets to keep him.
Boom.
See, so this is precedent.
This is exactly what I'm talking about.
If they mess up,
we need to keep this case.
So if the bank sends you money,
you go, look, man, we already got precedent.
They messed up.
I think he's yelling a word you've heard of us.
Precedent.
No precedent is a...
First time?
No, no.
present is something that has been established.
That's good. You're right about that. But I'm saying I don't know that it's quite parallel
with a bank digitally putting money in your account.
Why not? Same type of error.
You didn't do anything. You didn't do anything to actually get the money.
Yeah, I went to my, I checked my bank account and I withdrew it.
Anyway, he got to keep, after all the court, he gets to keep the $13,000 ear rings.
And they listed it at $13.00. I saw somebody on eBay had listed a card, like a baseball card.
they accidentally listed it for like four bucks
meant to list it for like 4,000.
Do you buy it? No, it was a new story
and the person bought it and the person that had
the card was like, oh,
I typed in the wrong number
and so they wrote a note with it that said
this is on me. It's a $4,000 card. Congratulations.
So that's what people are doing now.
I love it. President. President.
President. Yes. All right, let's go to Amy
with the morning corny.
The morning corny.
What do you call a fish with no eyes?
What?
You get it?
Yes.
That was the morning corny.
It's almost like that joke just kind of, it just wave crashed into Eddie.
He didn't get, oh, I heard of.
Got it.
So Bobby Bones show interviews.
In case you didn't know.
Well, this is the first time I've done this before.
I've done this before.
I've done an interview with Randy Travis in studio and his wife and his longtime producer,
but also we're talking about AI and how AI has given Randy Travis his voice back to sing this song.
You know, Randy Travis had a stroke and is not able to speak.
They have recreated his voice on this song.
This is Randy Travis.
It's brand new.
It's called Where That Came From.
But it's Randy Travis as created by AI, but by using Randy Travis's old voice.
We'll talk to Randy and crew right after this.
Here's where that came from.
On the Bobby Bones show now.
Randy Travis.
All right, that was the song.
It's the first time you guys have heard it.
And so I want to ask Randy's AI a couple questions, which is really interesting here.
So as someone who was given the gift to sing, had it taken away, and now that's been returned with the help of AI.
AI, Randy, what would you say to someone who's skeptical about the technology, given that you had a really positive experience with it?
Don't knock it till you try it.
I've been skeptical of technology my whole life.
But given this opportunity, I figured why not give it a shot?
And we've been pleased with the results.
It's encouraging to me finally getting a chance to sing again, just in a different way.
Dang.
That's really cool.
That's really cool.
Let's talk about your family's reaction.
What was their initial reaction once they heard your voice again for the first time in years?
And was there anyone who was upset by it?
And whose idea was it to do this?
Mary said I didn't know how much I missed his voice until I've heard it again.
The kids were tearing up.
It's been special sharing with the people I love most.
I have to give credit to Chris Lacey and the team at Warren Music for the idea.
We'll see where it goes.
That's AI, Randy Travis, and I can just ask a question and he answers it.
That's really cool.
Pretty amazing.
Now, in studio, the real Randy, Randy, good to see you, buddy.
And Kyle, you've produced, how many years with Randy?
I need a calculator.
40, it's almost 40.
85, we started working together in 85.
And so was it important to the entire unit that the units stay together, even though this is a project that, again, isn't conventional at all?
Your relationship has been in a very positive way, super conventional, right?
Like you love each other, you've worked together, you've consistently done really good things.
But here comes this unconventional, the use of AI to allow him to have his voice again.
How did you feel when you were told about it?
Just like Randy, I'm skeptical of just about everything.
So, you know, I was a little, well, I just didn't know what to think of it.
And, you know, it's one thing to have an idea and then it's another thing to actually hear the result.
But the main thing was is that Randy and Mary, when given the opportunity, were positive about giving it a try.
And so that's all I really needed to hear.
If they were into doing it, then I would do everything I could to be helpful.
Randy's wife, Mary, is here too.
Mary, the first time you heard it back in its entirety.
I mean, this is your husband.
This is the person that you love,
and he's had something taken away from him,
which was very important to him, his voice.
But you were able to hear that again.
What was the emotion you felt hearing Randy's voice singing again?
I just bust out in tears.
I mean, just because 11 years of not hearing that voice,
which I think is the greatest voice in the world.
And we had with the idea that as it was,
as it was developing, we had no idea how it would turn out.
So when I heard it in its entirety and upon its completion,
it was the greatest moment in the last 11 years.
Really?
Yes.
Everything I prayed for was just to hear his voice.
And this is a different way of hearing his voice,
but it's clearly his voice.
Randy, what was the emotion the first time you heard it?
I was just like, whoa.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Just, was you so happy?
And you're super happy with it.
Because it sounds just, I mean, as a fan of yours, if I were to just hear that by itself,
I would just think that is an older recording of your voice with more contemporary sound, obviously.
But I would think that was your voice.
Like, it sounds like you singing, not technology helping it.
Did you feel the same way?
Yeah.
Kyle, when, did you learn as a producer?
Like, what did you learn from this?
Gosh, I'm still learning from this.
That's a really good question, Bobby.
I, you know, just the fact that it works was astounding to me.
I didn't know what to expect.
You know, I was stunned when I first heard the playback,
even though it wasn't 100% ready to go, but it was impressive.
So I want to come back with you guys in just a second.
Randy Travis is here.
We just played the brand new song for Mandy Travis with the help of AI.
Randy's wife and longtime producer are both in studio.
Let's go.
I'm going to play some classic.
Randy, can I say classic?
Like your old stuff?
I can play that, right?
Like, that's awesome.
All right, back in a second.
Randy Travis in studio.
If you missed it, this is the song.
They've used 50 recordings of his voice
to create an AI version of his voice
since he had the stroke.
And this was a clip of where that came from.
Here you go.
And some people are like,
AI, what does it even mean?
So I want to play you this.
This is the president of Warren.
her music Nashville, and she's talking about what AI for good would look like.
There's been a lot of discussion about AI lately, and a lot of it's negative because it infringes
upon artist's rights and a lot of artists being manipulated without the permission of the
creator. So there was a group of executives within the Warner Music Group. There was a
brainstorming session and discussing what would AI for good look like. What AI for good looked like
for us was the ability to give Randy Travis his voice back.
So that's Chris Lacey, President Warner Music.
And that's what we're talking about.
His producers in studio, we're going to get into how to even do this, how they get the voice recordings.
Randy Travis still here.
Back with Randy and Kyle and Randy's wife all next.
A win is a win.
A win is a win.
I don't care what I'm saying.
Yep, that's me.

There's two golden rules that any man should live by.
Rule one, never mess with a country girl.
You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes.
And rule two, never mess with her friends either.
We always say that trust your girlfriends.
I'm Anna Sinfield, and in this new season of the girlfriends...
Oh my God, this is the same man.
A group of women discover they've all dated the same...
prolific con artist.
I felt like I got hit by a truck.
I thought, how could this happen to me?
The cops didn't seem to care.
So they take matters into their own hands.
I said, oh, hell no.
I vowed.
I will be his last target.
He's going to get what he deserves.
Listen to the girlfriends.
Trust me, babe.

All right, glad you guys are here.
So over the past week, we've been talking about this secret document.
People have had to sign like Eddie.
And what it was is they were putting out a new Randy Travis song.
Now, if you're familiar with the situation, Randy Travis had a stroke years ago and has not been able to communicate.
And him and his wife, they worked together and I've been able to see Randy a couple times since then.
But he's not been able to talk like he used to.
And so they took all these voice recordings of his and they created this new song by using AI.
And that was the big secret.
They didn't want anybody to know about it.
and they wanted to come on and talk about how AI can also be used for good.
Now, this is Chris Lacey, who is the head of Warner Music Nashville,
talking about how the song was made and the importance of Randy Travis's actual involvement.
We never would have done this if Randy didn't want us to.
We never would have done it if it didn't involve Kyle Lenning, who was Randy's producer.
So to move forward the right way was that Randy stands shoulder to shoulder with Kyle,
and he's part of the process.
He's part of the production.
He's part of the song choices.
He's part of how we edit and comp vocals.
All the things that Randy would normally do for any given album,
Randy also did for this record.
The whole process of recording music the way we all know it happened.
And here's a clip in case you missed it of the new Randy Travis song using AI with where that came from.
Here you go.
On the Bobby Bones Show now.
Randy Travis.
All groups here.
Randy's here.
Randy's wife, Mary.
He's longtime producer Kyle's here.
So, Kyle, why this song specifically?
Because it does sound like a traditional Randy Travis song,
but also it sounds sonically like today's version of Randy Travis would sound like.
Jerry Douglas and I actually co-produced a number of years ago
on an artist that we had started to develop.
And the project just never really came to fruition.
But I always like the song, and I like the track a lot.
and it always, one of the reasons I like the artist, James Dupray,
was because he felt like Randy to me
in terms of the way he phrased things and sang and stuff.
And so when I got the model back from England
to try the AI voice on it, I sat on it for two weeks.
I wasn't sure.
When his voice came out, it just became a whole other level,
just beauty to me, the way the song sounded and felt.
Did you use old recordings of Randy's voice,
like a lot of that you had saved of just his vocal
in order to make this?
I sent them 42 lead vocals from Randy's career,
starting from stuff as early as 1985 when we first started working together.
Like no music, like dry?
Just a vocal.
Just a clean vocal.
About two months later, after they got them,
they called them, said,
we think we have something for you to hear,
and that's when they sent the model.
Mary, being Randy's wife,
obviously you're aware of the feelings
good and not so great about AI. But this is a very personal thing to you. If people are like,
hey, we shouldn't do that with music. But here you go, you're actually watching it give your
husband's voice back. Like, what do you say to people who go, we shouldn't do AI in music? What is,
what is your answer? Well, I think right now, AI is, it's kind of walking a tight line because people
are using it for the wrong reasons. And as of today, I think there's been 179,000
songs done or hours of AI done that have been put out there that are not not with the
permission of the artist or the publishing company or the label or anybody else I think that's
where the issue is if someone is still here like Randy is and blesses it I think that it's a
whole different wonderful thing I don't know how else but it's not it's not fair to say that
you can't do that because nobody has walked in Randy's shoes as far as being one of the
greatest country artists of all time vocalists and then to lose that because of something like a
stroke for him to want to do music, continue to do music, I think is something that this is just
it's a good way to say this is a nice way to use AI and there's good and bad and everything.
And of course when you're on the precipice of something new, then everybody has their doubt.
but with Randy behind the whole thing
and knowing that those are stems from Randy's songs
that are actually singing the song,
just in a different way,
I think that people need to have kind of an open mind
about the right way of using AI.
Randy, do you listen to this over 100 times?
Yeah.
Me too.
That's all I would play if you were, me.
I'd listen to it all the time.
Have you secretly done other ones?
I would have me doing all kinds of stuff,
though, from my own personal fun,
I'd be like, here's me doing stairway to heaven.
Yeah, that's what I would do.
I would go crazy.
I call Kyle in the middle of the night.
We go do I'm a little teapy Kyle.
I know you got the stems.
Let's go.
That's what I would be doing.
Yeah, we're going to put Randy Travis out rapping.
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
There we go.
Kyle, what would you say your top three?
It doesn't have to be commercial success,
but favorite tracks that you've recorded with Randy.
Like, it's still, it could be commercial success.
It could be a story you have about it.
Like, when recording with Randy, like, what are those tracks do you think about?
Like, man, what a day?
that was. Oh, geez. I mean, we never made one recording that we finished that we didn't both love.
We didn't make music that we, that we didn't feel like was true to what he was, what he was about,
what he wanted to do. If you want to talk about, what did you know was a hit? Like, you recorded it and you're like,
man, I'm not going to really say this much, but I know this song's a hit. I've never known
anything about what was going to be a hit. I mean, we've made, you know, you. I mean, we've made, you. You
You know, we've made records that we felt really good about,
but the public always gets to vote,
and you never know how that's going to turn out.
So I'm always humbled by how that works.
But I think one of the ones that sticks out a lot for me
was a Skip Ewing song called If I Didn't Have You,
which I really thought was a unique piece of writing
and perfect for Randy's voice.
And really proud of how that one turned out.
But, you know, we could start on the first hour,
and start naming off all the tunes.
Yeah, I'd have been like digging up bones.
That's a hit.
That's a hit. That's a hit.
Oh, three wooden crosses.
That's a hit.
I'd have been yelling out the door.
That's a hit.
When we first heard that song, Paul Overstreet's song, when we first heard that song
and he said exhume and we both went, you got to put, you got to record a song if they can
get exhuming in it, you know.
Exhuming, not used a whole lot.
No.
In the country music vernacular.
No, that one.
Deeper than the holler.
Those were Paul Overstreet and.
Don Schlicht's tunes and they've, you know, brilliant songwriters.
But on the other hand, that one too, that one talks about.
I'm just going to sing your songs at you.
Is that a cool?
This whole segment's now me just singing them back to you.
Don't forget for it.
I'm going to love you.
What is your feeling on AI and music?
And what do you think should be done and how should it be regulated?
Well, this particular, the way we've been able to use it is very exciting to me.
And I'm all in favor of it.
As long as we can, as long as we can make music that feels like Randy Travis when we're
doing it. I think that's the most important thing is that there's something that that feels authentic
when you're doing it. It's a new, it's a new thing for me. I'm learning all the time about the little,
things about it that sort of don't quite feel right or don't sound right. So working on that,
you know, I think it's going to be an interesting, you mean sonically don't feel right, not like in
your heart or gut. I think it's not in your ears. I think it is in your, I think it's in your gut.
I think there's a thing, you know, the audio can sound a certain way, but the way things sound
isn't the way they feel. It's different. That's a different thing. So we're always trying to
make sure that what we do feels right. Mary, there were a lot of artists that when I was watching
the video piece that they aired, there were a lot of artists showing their support. How important
was that to get support of other artists that are also creating who also will have to deal with
this in some way eventually? Well, I think it was important.
Most of those, well, all of them were dear to Randy.
And so I think Randy wanted to know exactly how they felt about it.
Many of them have, you know, texted us or emailed us and are called to tell us what they thought of it.
And it's all been positive because I think the music world, it's competitive, but country music is so fraternal too.
And those people have always wanted to hear Randy Travis again.
And he laid the path for so many of those that have heard it.
It was important to get their reaction, and we're glad we did.
I guess it reinforced what we did was a good thing to do.
And I think it gives them something in case, you know, they ever want to or need to.
Randy, feel like a lot of your life's been giving back to you?
Yeah.
That's really cool.
And you deserve it.
And who knows what's going to happen, right?
This just happened.
This just came out.
This is much like the internet was when the internet busted out.
And it's like, well, you can do a lot of bad things.
But there's also some good that can be done.
And, you know, it was the Wild West.
And they had to figure out what to regulate, what not, what you can't.
And, you know, we're going to go through this.
It's cyclical with technology.
And I think what you guys have shown is the good side.
And I think that needs to be shown because there are a lot of great things,
not just in music, that generally.
technology is allowing us to do and that if we embrace it in ways it will actually help create
a more positive, a more efficient, or give Randy his voice back. And I love it for that.
And so I'm super excited. You guys came in. Congratulations. Heck of a vocal there, Andy. You laid a
heck of a vocal down, buddy. It's awesome. Mary, great to see you. Thank you. Pleasure to hang out
with you too, Kyle. So there is, well, it's only Eddie and I in here. So we can do a big, they kicked
everybody else. I can clap though. By yourself? Oh, I'll do it. All right, there you.
Randy Travis, everybody. All right. We're here. I want to address a few things.
So we just had the Randy Travis segment where he used AI to make that song. And that was the
segment that I did not know what's happening literally until they came to the building.
Last week. Eddie had to sign an NDA. Scoo Steve signed an NDA, which is a non-disclosure agreement.
And the reason they did not want anyone to know about it is because AI is such a controversy.
You'll think, because you hear artists using AI or people taking like Drake and making him sing George Jones songs or there is in the creative community a fear that record labels or producers are going to use AI and make it to where humans don't have a job, right?
So because Randy had a stroke, they were able to use his old voice recordings and make a new version of a new song that he recorded.
And they just didn't want it to get out that it was AI because they knew it would be a terribly negative reaction without hearing the whole story.
And I think that would have been what happened to it.
If it's like Randy Travis is releasing a song with AI, you would have seen the industry flip going, oh, we're using the computer to make songs now?
that's some bull crap.
But then when Randy's in, and Randy had a stroke,
Randy's barely able to communicate.
That would be using it for good.
They just wanted the full context there.
So I didn't know what the bit was, the segment was,
who the interview was until a few minutes before they got here.
Nah, a few hours, I would say.
But Eddie did because Eddie had to record the cameras.
That's why he had to sign it.
He had to run the video for it.
That's the only reason, guys, so don't get your feelings hurt.
I'm okay.
Yeah, everybody's feeling...
I'm not talking about you, Amy.
And Scoobie Steve knew because
I let Scoobie Steve
and Morgan, number one, kind of tell me if I
should do it without me knowing what it was.
Because that wasn't going to sign anything.
So that is what it was.
It's pretty cool.
It is, and that would be using AI for good.
Yeah, it's really special.
I would imagine for a lot of people,
I mean, this is happening to a famous person,
but so many people that, you know,
maybe haven't heard someone speak,
in quite some time, like AI using that to, I don't know, have them say something that would be
helpful for your brain to hear.
And there's another point I was going to make, but I'm so exhausted from IRCountry.
Like my brain is not working itself.
And I interviewed Randy's AI a little bit.
Oh, yeah.
And you can hear that in the podcast where I'm like, Randy, what's your family think about
this?
And it was this AI talking back to me.
It's wild.
Yeah.
It's the world, I would just compare it to what the Internet was in its infancy where people were
like, oh, this is going to be bad.
But there is some good.
And there is some bad.
But there needed to be some regulation.
And there now is, but that's what's
going to need to happen here. So that
was the whole thing. It wasn't like a crazy bit
where we teased it for days or weeks
and we knew what it was.
I never knew what it was until right before
it happened. And I'm so
excited for Randy because you could hear him in the
studio. Like he was glowing. Like he wanted to cry
when he was listening to it. Because it was even
I mean, that was his whole, this is his
life.
Everybody did.
Yes.
Like that was what he was known for.
It's who he was.
And even his wife coming in and saying, you know, like, I think that's the best voice in the whole wide world and I haven't been able to hear it in so long.
So that's what it was.
That's why we did it.
That's why I didn't know about it.
And now we can move on.
I rarely get into like a comment fight on the Bobby Bono show page.
And it wasn't a comment fight.
No, no, no, it wasn't a fight.
Okay.
But I did feel the need to kind of stick up for.
like what had happened there with Randy in that segment.
And we posted a picture of Randy and his family in.
And this person said,
what a terrible tease for a segment.
And I wrote,
hey,
I understand your sentiment,
but one,
I also didn't know what the segment was.
I wouldn't sign the agreement.
And two,
they didn't want the info getting out of people judging a song made of AI
without Randy and his family there to explain why and how they did it.
Because it was also done with his voice.
and the many, many recordings that he had recorded from years prior.
And they said it was a secret, and so we just did a secret.
So, here, my version of I Will Always Love You comes out tomorrow with AI.
Yeah, it's going to be real good, though.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, we'll move on.
That's what's up.
Listen to the whole thing on the podcast.
I'm super happy to have been able to talk about that.
I think we're the only place they stopped by this morning.
Well, it wasn't this morning.
We recorded it.
But I think we're the only place they stopped by other than CBS, which did a big
special on it yesterday. But I'm super
happy to have that relationship with Randy and his family
and be able to take that song and put it
out there. Yeah, it is really special
knowing the back story. But some people are still
going to miss that. You know? Absolutely.
They're not going to pay attention. But what's crazy
to me, and I'll move to the news, the craziest thing
that all of this is that some people will miss it
and that not everybody in the whole world listens
to our show. Hey, that's crazy.
You believe that. And it can't.
How's that a thing? All right, let's go.
Bobby's big.
Experts say it is vital to encourage your kids to get involved in team sports.
It will do more than just teach them sportsmanship.
Researchers found that sports playing kids have a higher likelihood of graduating high school and just going to college, not even to play sports.
Higher rates of physical activity with friends growing up makes them more likely to continue those friendships into childhood.
Also lower drug and alcohol abuse and like a safe space for them to go.
That's from the Mayo Clinic.
For me, sports was the absolute most important thing to me, sports and church, because it gave me again a safe place.
I didn't have a dad, so my head football coach, and he didn't sign up for it.
But he was very much so a father figure to me, even if he didn't want to be.
And it's not that he was like, I don't want to be, but I think I just assigned him that because he taught me adversity, he tough love, expectation, like all.
of that. Later, my
stepdad came in for sure,
and my youth director at church did a bit of that
too, but sports to me, as someone who did not
have a lot
of structure, was wildly
important. And I'm not saying
everybody needs to play tackle football.
Yeah, but not everybody
can play sports, man. You don't have to play well.
Right, but then the coaches
and they're dealing with a couple kids on the team
that aren't very good.
Are you talking about yourself?
No, no, no, no. It feels like we're both telling our personal
stories? You know, I have experience in this
field. I was not a good
athlete. I turned into an okay athlete
about 11th grade and then I got to be pretty good.
I got a lot of shiny
trophies when I got older.
I mean, I'm watching this happen with my daughter who decided
to just randomly start playing
softball when she got to high school. She had never played
before. And watching her
be a part of a team
is really awesome as a mom.
And let me tell you, there's a lot of softball games.
Softball is one of those sports where there's probably about
I don't know, eight games a week
and there's only like five school days.
Sounds like that's not exactly true.
Eight days, but I got it.
I'm exaggerating for, you know, emphasis here on that there's a lot of games.
So it's been frustrating.
And I'm like, why do you want to play this sport?
But if I really wait it, I would, I want her to play the rest of her high school career.
Even though she does not even really play that much, there's some games.
She literally just cheers in the dugout.
But it's cool to watch her be a part of a team and learn responsibility and showing up for others.
I think the team thing is the word.
Yes.
Even more than sports.
I think that's just how a lot of the teams you get on in high school ends up being that.
Although I don't hang out on my quiz bowl team very much.
The chess team, any team.
Well, the problem with the quiz bowl team for me was when I was in seventh grade,
but I was the captain of the 12th grade team in seventh grade.
Dang, dude, what a baller.
You would think, but nope.
Exactly the opposite.
Let me count one, two, three, four.
I got no chicks from that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Moving on, there's a book called What Flavors Your Personality?
by Dr. Alan Hirsch.
They say the food that you crave
reveal something about you.
And what's the type of food that you crave?
Kesa.
Salty, sweet.
So, okay, let's do that.
Salt, don't say the exact food, but what kind of salt?
Salty.
Is salty sweet a flavor?
No, that's two flavors.
Holly, then salty.
Okay.
Eddie?
I mean, I guess I'm salty.
What's pizza?
Salty.
That's like, yeah, savory.
Free.
Sure, sure.
If you crave a salty type thing, like a potato chip,
you tend to believe that outside forces, not your own actions, determine your fate.
Yeah, that's about right.
If you crave dark chocolate, you're the life of the party.
That's not you.
If you crave spicy.
Oh, I hate dark chocolate.
You hate it.
My wife knows it's the only sweet thing she can keep in the house that I won't eat.
There's like a big, like, gathering, a party of dark chocolate and like the pantry thing.
If you crave spicy food, you love order.
Just like wasting time and worry about the details.
me, I'm a sugar guy.
Sugar in the morning, sugar in the evening.
I'll take sugar all the time.
What are you?
You tend to want to stand out and feel special.
Oh.
Okay.
Pretty much nailed that one.
Yeah, that fits.
Biggest vinyals of the century revealed.
These are records?
Records, not albums specifically, but vinyl records of the century, though, would be the 2000s.
Oh, okay.
Taylor?
Taylor.
No.
Taylor's not on that?
Actually, number three, Nirvana smells like teen.
spirit. Number two, Pink Floyd
Money. So what century they're talking about? The 19th century
or the 18th? 1924 to
2024? No, I would think it was just
2000s on. Okay. But again, the resurgence of vinyl has made
But Pete Floyd came out like in the 70s.
No, no, but you're missing the point. The vinyl sold now. But they buy, they're
selling. Go back to sports.
Just think about that. Write me a little essay. We'll come back to your sports.
But I feel like in the 70s, vinyl's is when they were like happening. But you're missing
the point. The resurgence of the virus. How many times
that's the word resurgence? I'm not sure.
to throw something at him. Number one,
Pink, no, Fleetwood Mac.
We did IR Country Festival
and it was amazing. Long live IRC country
festival. Like going into it, we get
excited. I didn't get home until yesterday evening.
But this was wonderful. It was wonderful festival. You know, you had
I thought, and I get to watch them all, I thought Lady A to me had the most fun, the
coolest, biggest, like, most well-rounded performance.
Again, I didn't get to see everybody's whole,
but I went out to watch all Lady A, man, they are still so good.
So it was good, but I would host it and I would go and I'd do a stage thing and then I'd go do a thing on Hulu and then I would go.
And every time I'd go back to my dressing room to change or something, the company would bring a new client and have them sitting there and I have to do like a client thing.
And it was fine the first three or four, but then I never got to like pee or eat.
And it was like, okay, backstage, go back over here, back in.
Guess what?
There's somebody else in your room.
Go talk to them for 15.
Okay, get it.
And by the end of the night, I was like, I am Bobby Jones.
I am Bobby Jones.
So, yeah, little eyeballs are a little furry this morning.

It's one of the first scratchoffs he ever bought
because he just turned 18, won $2 million.
Your thoughts, lunchbox?
He's ruined for life.
Yeah, that's probably right.
He probably thinks he wins all the time now.
That's tough.
He never got to grind.
He doesn't know what it is to work hard.
Well, no, I don't think that's the case.
I don't think he ever work hard at the lottery.
Lunchbox does?
He works hard.
I think he just whines a lot.
No, I mean, I travel.
I do.
I mean, I have strategy.
This kid just, oh, willy-willy-nilly, two million.
When I started doing breaks, and breaks are, you get in,
and they open a box of sporting memorabilia that's signed by somebody.
The first one I ever got in, I won.
And that was like lunch was saying, it was trouble.
Oh, yeah.
Because I picked the Titans, and if they drew the Titans, Tennessee Titans, you win it.
And they drew the Houston Oilers, which used to be the Titans.

And I was like, oh, this was the coolest thing ever.
I always win.
And then I didn't always win.
You didn't have to work hard after that?
No.

A fifth grader.

That's an illusion.
11 year old, right?
It's an 11 year old.
It's been indefinitely postponed, a pal of Hickman said, yeah, that's canceled.
A fifth grader, all the wedding aside, who cares?

but it's a fifth grader.
Yeah, I don't understand that.
So back in the day,
the teacher that ended up marrying the kid,
you know,
when they started,
he was 12, right?
I mean, that's been so long,
I don't know,
but I think they're still together, right?
There's a show on that.

And his reaction.
Go ahead.
Oh, that's like real personal.
It's produced and stuff.
And it is really produced.
And she's really good.
Hey, I don't know if we can do this.
Maybe that's a problem.
Because she's like really good.
Huh.
Okay.
If we get a collar on and they give us some details, we'll give it a run.
It's not going to sound like that.
But, you know.
Yeah, y'all need like a specific question that are asked so that someone can fill it out.
We're going to ask them right with our mouths.
How many details are you going to get?
I don't know.
But I don't want to like give up so much against our identity stolen.
Right.
Right.
Yeah, but just like, hey, windmill me.
But it may not even be about that.
Maybe like a sister or something.
Or a mom from Mother's Day.
Windj on me.
Dude, we can do.
We met that day you cut my umbilical cord.
I was screaming.
Or like I adopted.
I met her.
I came out purple, but the ducked to slap my butt.
Here's another clip of a wife revealing the song that she had made for her husband.

We got together later in life.
God had other plans you couldn't deny.

I'm just going to ask you some questions.
Do you have a guitar up here?
Yeah.
Hey, Amy.
Yes.
Will you be our science experiment to see if we can do this?
I would be in,
Oh my God, yes.
Okay.
I can't say it's going to be super produced like that.
Eddie and I are just going to sing it to some microphones.
No, you can say it's not going to be super produced.
I can't say it's not going to be super produced because Eddie and I are just going to sing it into some microphones.
Right.
Is that okay?
That's totally fine.
We'll just perform it on the show live, like tomorrow the next day.
Okay, Amy.
So what is this occasion?
Oh, I heard you guys on the radio and I just couldn't resist it.
Yeah, yeah.
So, okay, so who do you want to write about and why do you want to write about them?
My husband Damien.
His name is like the devil.
I just love him and I think this would be incredible.
You're writing it already?
Damian.
Damian. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, Damian and how, I don't know, how tall is Damian?
Five eight.
Am I asking the wrong questions?
Five, five, eight.
But how tall are you?
Yeah.
Amy.
Five six.
Okay.
You're just two inches taller.
Some people say I shouldn't wear heels, but that's not how I feel.
I'm already there.
I'm already free time.
You're already working.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, so does he ever claim to be taller because he's 5'8?
That's what I would ask.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, yeah.
Claims to be taller.
Yeah, yeah.
And you know what you say to our friends that you might just be 510, but we know that ain't true.
Okay, I'm already, I'm feeling it here.
Okay.
So a lot of guys that are smaller either, it's like guys that are bald.
They like grow beards.
No offense, scuba.
But like small guys like to get really jacked.

Yeah, he's a gym junkie.
He goes every day.
Jim junkie.

Jim junkie.
Okay.
A big truck?
Oh, yeah.

Two-inch lift, I like that.
Two inches, I wish you put on your height.
Stop.
Put it on your truck.
You put it on your truck and put it just a mic.

He's right.
Thank you.

Um, pahitas.
Oh, my goodness.

Do you have a friend named Cleetus?
Please, do you?
Please say yes.
Oh, Amy.
No?
Okay, how about this?
It's incredible.
Like, I don't, our little son Troy was a fetus.
Hey.
Well, we thought of his name when we were eating fajitas.
Yeah.
Well, you know, that was the rhyme of his name is Troy.
No, but our son.

Yeah, us either.
I'll be honest with you.
Man.
This is equally as exciting for us.
Okay.
Thank you, Amy.

I'm ready.
Okay.
Bye, Amy.

There's a rumor going round.
Are you on that one today?
It's in my head.
It comes out of my mouth.
The tone is not right, but I have.
It's called tone deaf.
Right.
So like Morgan, I can also hear it in my head right now.
I can't.
Can't hear that part?
There's a rumor going around.
Oh my God, Ray.
Can you please just place it to song?
There is.

Okay. That's all you needed. We've are clothes.
I have more of Lee Rice voice, you know what I?
We spent the weekend at IR Country Festival.
Listen to the post show today. We do an entire podcast after the show.
And we'll talk about a lot of things that happened over the weekend.
But quick, high and low from the weekend, Amy.
I'll start with the low, which is just my feet after festivals and stuff, like wearing heels all weekend and walking around.
I need to probably make a chiropractor appointment today.
I just hurt everywhere.
And then hi would be, I love that it's in Austin.
I mean, I love our country fest.
It's so much fun, the artists, the concert, the people.
But my family gets to come, family and friends that I've had for 25 plus years.
My family, obviously longer, but girlfriends that I've known for a very long time,
and they all got to sit together in a row.
And it was just fun to look up in the crowd and see them together.
Eddie?
So my sister got to come to the show, and this was so cool.
I got to take her backstage for a second
and it was right when Keith Irving was walking by
and Keith's like, Eddie, what's up?
He gives me a handshake, gives me a hug.
And my sister was like, oh my gosh.
Like, your friends with Keith Irving.
I'm like, yeah, it's my friend.
My best friend. That's my dude.
The worst is, dude.
I'm exhausted.
Like, as soon as I landed and I got back,
my wife gave me the car keys like,
all right, you have a flag football game to go to.
Take him. He's in the car.
Immediately.
Amy, didn't your niece get to take a shot with jelly roll?
She did.
First of all, it's crazy that my niece is
21 years old now and she just turned 21 recently so yeah jelly roll i was like oh jelly roll was
passing out shots and my niece was like oh i need to take one and it's weird to hear her say that and then
i go jelly roll she just turned 21 and he's like get up here girl so they took it together and that was
a random moment for her that she'll never forget lunchbox uh low is i didn't get enough friend time i mean at
the concert i had friends there but i mean i was just busy and so they i didn't get to go up and party
with them in the VIP area.
But the highlight was Keith Urban was in the crowd,
jamming out.
He comes running up.
He sees me, stops, puts his arm around me,
and we sing a song together.
See, we're all friends with Keith Irvin.
Yeah, Keith's awesome.
He's our dude.
But you sing a song together.
I mean, you didn't really sing.
I mean, you didn't get on the microphone and sing.
No, you had the microphone in front of me.
And I just like, I had my mouth up and I got to sing because I didn't know the words.
That's what I figured.
That's what I figured.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm just glad it all happened and there were no fires.
Yeah.
Well, no, there was fire.
No, I'm talking about like, I have like 94.
94 things I have to do.
And it all worked out wonderfully.
It was happy.
There were no issues.
The hardest part of it is just, yeah, I walked in this morning and hit my head on the camera on the wall.
You did.
You've never done the history in my life.
But I'm happy because it was wonderful.
I got to hang out with a lot of crazy cool people, not artists related.
It's like people I got to know over the weekend.
Aldine, it was dark backstage, and Al Dean came up to me.
I was about to go on stage and do the final thing, and I feel somebody, like, put their arm around me and go, hey, hey, hey, what's up, what's up?
I don't know who it was.
It could have been anybody telling me to go 100 different places.
And I'm like, what up?
And it's just to the point where I have to big dog so many people, not like getting bigger than them, but when you don't know who it is, you go, what's that big dog?
That's what you say when you don't know their name.
And I couldn't tell.
I could not tell it was Al Dean.
I was like, what's how big dog?
And I get him fine.
And I slap him on the side.
And then I see him from three feet away.
And I was like, Jason, he was like, yeah.
So I didn't know that was you.
I said, dang, dude, you've been working out?
Like, I think Jason's got, I like felt his, I just slapped his side.
He's getting ripped?
Dude, I think so.
And I was like, dude, what the heck?
And he was like, working out, getting ready for a tour.
And I was like, you are a big dog.
Dang.
Yeah.
Legit.
Like I hit him on the body and it kind of bounced back.
So that was good.
That's fine.
I thought Lady A was so good.
I thought Brothers Osborne was so good.
Man.
It was awesome.
Bobby Bones show.
Bonehead.
Story of the day.
This story comes us from Yellowstone National Park.
A 40-year-old man was there visiting the park and he saw a bison.
He was like, hey, let me go check out that bison.
And he gave a bison a good old kick.
Why did he kick the bison?
He's a bonehead, man.
No, I get it.
But in his mind,
Why did he kick the bison?
He even drinking?
After being injured and arrested, they realized he was under the influence of alcohol.
Of course.
Why would you want to kick a bison, even drunk, I wonder?
Like, at least get a selfie with it before you get, like, run over.
I don't know you can get that close to him to kick him.
That's pretty cool.
Right, I mean, you would think.
Bison or near-sighted.
But you would think that he would hear you coming and...
Wait, hold on, how do you know that?
You're just lucky it doesn't step on you.
They're huge.
Yeah.
Have you ever seen pictures of bison's walking straight up to like a tree or a sign?
And they don't know it's there.
They walk their head is like right up like this.
That's because they can't see it.
They do?
That's my life without glasses.
You guys are laughing.
If I take my glasses off, that's my life.
You're a bison.
Yes. Lunchbox, thank you.
I'm lunchbox.
That's your bonehead story of the day.
Did you see our old friend Kendra Scott?
I did.
This weekend?
Yeah.
Hung out with her for a long time.
Back in the day, day.
And Kendra Scott, by the way,
I don't know her.
I know she does jewelry, right?
Yeah.
I mean, she always did jewelry, but I didn't ever wear it,
so it's not like I'm super familiar with it.
But Kendra Scott was a friend from a long time ago.
This whole show came from Austin,
and she was just starting,
and she would just set up tables around town.
And she would set up a table outside the radio station,
and people would show up and buy.
And that was just, that was Kendra Scott,
who was selling her stuff.
And so we became friends because we were just doing a little radio show.
nobody listened to. And all of a sudden she blew up. And then we did okay. But not like her.
She got a billion dollar list. Wow. Yeah, like she's like crushing it. So,
Kendra's super nice. I really like her. There have been times where she's, I want to put her on,
like even a positive blast where she's reached down said, hey, can I hope you do this?
So she's been awesome, but I haven't seen her in a little bit. And you got to hang out with her for a couple hours.
Yeah. And she said, you came up. And of course, she, like, adores you. And I thought,
probably did out like a 30 minute meeting. I hadn't ever spent much, much time talking with her,
but we talked for a couple hours. Oh my God. Was that a you thing? Is that I know. Amy? I figured
you might be concerned that that's the case. I should have taught her the wrap up. Yeah.
It's a little fine with her hand. Kendra like, if Amy goes on, there's a great system. It's called
the rap finger. But I kid. She's awesome. There are multiple witnesses. And we were at her new shop
but like in Austin, she has a new,
it's a country inspired brand or Western
because she has a brand.
She's always loved branchy type things
and she had an idea after watching Yellowstone
like a few years ago
and she launched it. It's called Yellow Rose.
CalPokes got. Yeah, she got
cowgirl hats and all kinds of stuff.
So I was just picking out jewelry and she
made me a hat. But we talked.
Did you keep all this stuff? Yeah. And it's
the cutest stuff ever.
I have an eBay page.
This Wrangler denim jacket I'm wearing. It's hers.
Like with stitching in it.
She has partnerships.
Did she have any dude stuff?
Yes.
And she got remarried.
What the heck?
When did she get dude stuff?
Well, her husband, like they have this like Kendra Scott.
Like watches.
I want Kenny Scott.
I need Kenny Scott.
Is that her husband?
I don't know.
That's what she should be.
It's close enough to Kendra.
What are we going to say?
Her hat has her initials on it.
Like they branded like a cow brand.
They burned it into the hat.
Yeah, they put A.
A.S?
No, no, no.
My initials.
I was going to say, I don't want Kendra's initials in my hat.
No, no.
Amy's initials.
There's a hat bar, so you could go there and get your own hat and pick it all out and customize it.
At the store or at the festival?
At the store.
So, anyway, it was really nice to spend time with her, but we talked like about, we have a lot of parallel things that have happened in our lives the last few years.
So it was just really crazy.
Divorce stuff, family stuff.
Her dad just moved in with her.
Like, there's just a lot that she has going on.
And I, it's just another example of someone, if they may be killing it somewhere else.
Like publicly, you're like, oh, wow, look at all our sick.
and she's got this amazing life.
And at the same time, she has been juggling some of the most difficult things ever,
but she's been doing it so gracefully.
And she just put out a book called Born to Shine talking about that.
So we were discussing a lot of what's going on with her,
which I was shocked to hear because you just wouldn't look at her and think that she's had to go through some of that this recently.
Do you have her cell phone over?
Yes.
She did.
Boom, that's how you know.
Yeah.
And I didn't ask, like it was when she was walking away, her husband came to meet her,
they were going to go to dinner.
And she even had, listen, this is the thing.
She was like, I meeting my husband for dinner,
which I was like, okay, it's good to have an out.
Like, I like that she has an out, you know.
But then she was like, I kind of want my husband to come in and meet you.
So he came in, and then we hung out even longer.
And you don't think, it was good.
And he's like a hot cowboy that she manifested.
Kenny.
Kenny Scott.
No, his name's not Kenny, but she showed me.
She showed me she had a long list of all these things she wanted,
down to like even the cowboy detail.
I mean, obviously there was characteristics and traits,
personality stuff she wanted. The first hot cowboy. And he walked in and I was like,
you're, you're manifestation. Okay, relax. Take a breath. I asked him if he had a friend.
Are you going to manifest him with, okay. I don't. I said, teach me your ways.
That's really cool. Yeah, it's really cool. So, yeah. It's fun. It's crazy to see how successful
she's gotten. And sometimes you'll see, like, in those magazines, like the, even the digital,
like us weekly or whatever. They, like people in Kendra Scott stuff. You said billion.
Yeah, her company.
The company was a billion dollar company.
And she's extremely philanthropic.
Oh, I'm looking at him. Yeah, he's hot.
I met him. I met him at the ASEMs.
You see you agree? He's hot.
Yeah, and I remember going like, man, if I like dudes, that's a dude I'd like.
You thought that.
Oh, yeah. He was like really good looking.
And then I thought, for him, maybe I do.
It's just a brief thought.
Small world. Turns out he knows my ex-husband.
Oh, boy, I don't like it anymore.
But I will say this.
The philanthropy type stuff, like just talking to her one-on-one when nobody else is
listening, she truly has a heart and a passion for giving back. Like she's been given this
platform and all of this stuff. And maybe you hear, oh, she gives back here, gives back there.
But it's really at her core what she cares about. And you can tell. Good for her.
Dang, he is good looking. That's what I'm saying. Wow. I mean, you think about it, right?
She manifested him. No, I didn't think of it. You didn't? No, no, he's just good
out of it. Yeah, get me out there. Well, that's super cool. Glad you guys got to hang out.
Did you make any sales?
What was about? I mean.
She was like, oh yeah, that.
She was like, oh yeah, I forgot I went for work.
Well, I heart, it was in a partnership arrangement for that.
You show me the men's line, Mike?
I think we did what we were supposed to do, which was just get to know each other.
You know, like, I don't know what it was.
I don't know if I could hang out with her husband.
Maybe on a, just for friends.
Maybe on a horse.
I don't care about the horse.
That always hurts.
It hurts that spot in between, you know.
They have any clothes or just man jewelry.
There's watches?
Yes.
No, I'm talking about like, I need like,
like denim.
Okay, it's probably coming
because I think with this whole
yellow rose thing,
they're doing like household goods.
Like, it's just...
Yeah, I'm in.
She nailed it with this.
I need him to wear it though
so I can see how good it would look on me.
All right, that's it.
Thank you.
See you tomorrow.
A bad.
A baby bone show.
A win is a win.
A win is a win.
I don't care which I'm saying.
Yep, that's me.
