app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It's time for the Bobby Bones post show. Here's your host, Bobby Bones. Hello, everybody. Hope. All You's had a great weekend. Let's check in on weekends. Let's go to Amy first.

What'd you do? Hmm. My kids came home. They were on fall break, so they went to the beach with their dad. Had a lot of stuff that couldn't get done last week because of fall break. Oh, it's ridiculous. Well, like adults, too, because like normal business stuff. Well, when the kids are off, then the adults can get off now.

We can't get this contract done for something because of fall break. And I'm like, for a contract? Anyway, yeah, I didn't know that was the thing. Makes no sense. I knew for kids it was, but I didn't know, like, adults. Well, I mean, I guess if you can work remotely. Yeah, I don't know. I guess, or you take off.

But, like, I can't. In our divorce, every fall break, he has them because I would, I don't ever. You negotiated that deal? You get spring break? Well, so here's the thing with our job, I don't have fall break or spring break. Oh, we will. When Bobby has kids, we will. He has them, though.

They'll sit in here. Here's your fall break. During the break, you can go run around the room. Yeah, so I just, yeah, had them, and we had like game night, movie night, pizza night. We only have certain weeks we can take off, though. It has nothing to do with me. Right, I know. No, Eddie made a bad joke.

I would just like to come and say, we can only take off a week at a time. Oh, we'll figure it out. In summer. Right. Or in like starting December 3rd or 4th up until January. And Ben was, I mean, he, what? You know, he did Friday's off because we don't work on some Fridays?

And he's all like, man, make. But like we take our second vacation, we take it once school starts every year. And I'm like, that's fun for me. I get to do something. I get to sit around and do nothing. But like my kids are back in school. I think Amy's are too and lunchboxes are. I'm actually doing a, it's a benefit to you.

Oh, by giving me the time to go play golf by myself? Exactly. My staycation? It's for you. I mean, actually, I really do enjoy it, but my wife's always just like, you're taking your second vacation while the kids are back in school. I'm not trying to be a hater, but I hate you for saying that. All right.

What else? I mean, that's mostly what I did. Yeah. Hiked his beautiful weather. It was a good weather. My wife yesterday was like, don't you want to go outside? The weather's great. I was like, I, the weather being great does not make me want to go outside. Oh, that's weird.

I want to go outside and then if the weather's great, it's a bonus. But if the weather's real bad, then I don't. But I never just, I'm like, it's so nice I need to go outside. Probably because my allergies are so bad. Just in general, I never think, hmm, a lot of allergens out there. Let me attack it. So that usually, and then I got to go through a process. I got to go, no spray, no spray, a couple pills, let the pills set in.

Before I do my notes, I do the medied pot. Yeah, I just like, because it. If I lose my voice, because allergens are so bad, it sucks here. This is what you have. I mean, I know that they're bad, but this sounds like it's a whole thing so you don't have to go outside. And there's football on TV, right? I feel like to Caitlin, you're having to be like, if I lose my voice, I'm impacting. No, because I would have.

We talked about taking the dogs for a walk. And then I was like, ah, I don't want to do it just because it's a nice day. You don't have sunshine guilt? Mm-mm. I do. Or like good weather guilt. You mean like not taking advantage of it? Yeah, like if you're inside and you know it's amazing,

I feel a little guilty like I should be out there. No. I feel guilty if I buy something frivolous and don't donate that exact amount of money to something non-frivolous. Really? I don't have that guilt. I don't have that one either.

That's what I do now for the most part. If I buy like an expensive box of cards or something, I will just, that's my guilt. Not to celebrate me. Maybe because you have a lot of cards. But that's where it sets. on me if I'm like buying stupid stuff, it could be shoes. But if I don't, at this stage of my life, I feel like it's very, very, very, very selfish.

Although I have worked very hard for it, but that's my guilt. It's no sunshine guilt. Donation guilt. Not even donation. I don't like that term. Buying stupid stuff, man, it's not a good term either. Anyway, you get what you're saying. Yeah.

I have nap guilt. What's that? Tell me more. like if the kids go nap and then I don't nap, I'm like, dang, I should nap. I have nap guilt. Is that guilt or regret? I have both.

I think maybe it's regret more than guilt. It's like I'll watch something on TV that's not even worth watching. I'm like, man, nap guilt, should take a nap. I have couch guilt. I think you guys have regret. I think you're mixing up regret and guilt. I think he regrets not taking a nap when the kids did, but there's nothing that he's like, I feel guilty about it

because of a certain reason. Like it may not happen again. Amy's like, may not be sunny tomorrow. I didn't take advantage. Well, I won't be, it's guilt because it may not happen again. The next day, I may not get a nap. Okay. Eddie, what's couch guilt? No, just being on the couch all day.

And even like my kids are like, Dad, let's play this game. And I'm like, all right, bring it to the couch. And like, they'll bring the game to the couch. But where's the guilt come in? Like, I should get up and do other things. You feel guilty. Yeah, I shouldn't be in the couch. Okay.

Now, I can accept couch guilt because you could have missed out on things. Right. He has regret. Yours is also stupid. Mine's stupid too Amy's is the only valid one The Sunshine Gilt? Yeah

No because it's sunny Almost like every day No it's a good No Not here because it's hot for something Yeah It's hot for something like it's sunny And 75 guilt

Oh sunny We'll call that Joe Nichols Nichols Right Okay Around the room Eddie your weekend

It was good It started off great We went to Memphis Took my mom My mom was in town She's in town for three weeks Which is pretty awesome

You went to Memphis No, I'm telling you, Memphis gets a bad rap. I like a lot of Memphis. But the last two times I've stayed the night of Memphis that wasn't me doing an event, like a St. Jude event, my car's been broken into. Really? Both times? And both on Olive Garden.

I'm not sure if it's a Memphis or an Olive Garden. It's probably that parking lot. I think it's both Memphis and Olive Garden. No, two different ones. What? Two different ones. Anyway, Memphis is tough if you're not in a good spot. But Memphis is beautiful.

Like, they've kept it old. You know, which is awesome to me. I love when stuff is like old the way it used to be. They're not tearing buildings down. They're keeping them the way they are. Like, we went to the Mississippi River. It looks like Mark Twain's about to go by at any second. Is that because they haven't updated it, upgraded it?

It's all the same, man. There are parts of Memphis I really like and can really appreciate history, culture, the music part. But yeah, it's some parts of Memphis is tough. My wallet hub just did a study named Memphis, the most dangerous city to live in in America. Really? I didn't get robbed. Specific part. Did you go to Olive Garden?

No, I did not go to Olive Garden. Did you go to that park down there that they had redone on the Mississippi? Robbers Park. Have you been to Robbers Park? No, didn't go to Robbers Park. They redid the park right there on the riverfront. That was real nice. But besides that, there ain't nothing there. No, like that big pyramid that's a Bass Pro shop?

That's cool, man. Don't get off the trolley right there. We used to go to wrestling there as a kid. They had wrestling in the pyramid? Yeah, well, it used to be like a arena. Events Center arena. It had wrestling, Midstall wrestling there. And now it's just a Bass Pro shop?

Now Bass Pro bought it. That's cool. Memphis Pyramet was a big deal. Pyramid, I went to see the The basketball team play, the Grizzlies, that was awesome Why did you go to Memphis? Like, what was the actual reason? Just to get my mom out of the house and go do something?

And you decided Memphis better than like Chattanooga or like... Well, she likes basketball. Oh, so you went to go to Grizzlies game? I guess that was kind of the main thing and then we went to the zoo after that. Hawks. I told her too, we can go to Atlanta. We want.

That'd be awesome. And then that was cool, but then the Cowboys like got destroyed. Oh, yeah. That was so bad, though, that you can't even be affected by her. What do you mean? I'm going to tell you, because I watched and I lost a decent amount of money on that game. It was so bad and so ugly, you just got to, as they say, bury the football and move on. Because if it were a close game, you could be sick about it.

But it was so bad. You knew it was over from the jump. Yeah, and it's like you're not even that bad in real life. That everything went wrong, move on with life. So we're not that bad? Nope. I would rather just move on with life. If we get beat 70 to 6, Arkansas, it's a terrible game.

I'm like, we're actually not that bad. A couple bad things happened early. we tried to move on move on that was a hard one it was a hard one but that's not one

you should beat yourself up over because it wasn't reality it unless you better hope it's not I bet I bet on it and I lost a lot

but whatever yeah sorry about you cow I was hard to get through man gosh it's hard how was the grizzly game how's your mom

after your dad died my mom's good she is she's good she's dealt with stuff pretty well but it's weird every night

like around, I don't know, 6, 37 o'clock, she just gets sad. Of course. She says it's happened since all this has happened. Probably so used to having a partner right there. That's a hard part of it. And she said not mornings, not, you know, afternoons. It's just this time right here, like every day. She just gets set.

How long is she staying with you? She's staying for three weeks. How are the kids? They love it. I mean, they love it. They love having her around. It's really cool to have her around because she's just easy going. And so, and she cooked last night.

It's awesome having moms cook in town. It's really cool. Do you have a room she stays in or the kids move out of the room? Yeah, she kicks out of our 16-year-old. He's out of the room. Where does he go? He's on the couch. That's also probably pretty cool.

Oh, yeah. Does he have a TV in his room room? No, but he has got a TV where the couch is. That's what I'm saying? Like, there's a gain in that? Yeah, totally. That's cool. And so, what, has she been here a week?

She's been here for four days now. How was the greatest game? It was good. It was a preseason game, but really good. I mean, most of the start. Carter's played on both teams. Really? So it was cool to see that and is dirt cheap because it's preseason, so I like that.

Lunchbox your weekend? We decorated for Halloween, put some decorations on the outside of the house, getting ready, you know, skeletons and witches and all that good stuff. Kids like that? They'd love it. I mean, they were like, make sure we do it. And then five minutes in, they're like running around not really paying attention, breaking half the decorations.

But that's okay. That's what it's all about. Who cares? That is hard. Like you try to get the family, like, all right, we're going to decorate. And then it ends up being you, like three hours. They just want to see it decorated. Then actually I do the work.

Yeah, but you want them to like chip in and help. Yes, that's smart. They don't want to because it's work. They don't. You're right. You're right. Neither do. See, that's what you guys did.

Yeah, that's what we did. And we battle the bugs. I mean, everybody was getting sick. But, you know, it's a game you guys play, battle of the bugs? Oh, great. You know what just means? Yes, it means. We're all going to get sick now.

Battle of the bugs in here. You're like how they casually brought it up. Oh, battle of the bugs. No, no, not me. well yet them but you bring in all the illnesses so they passed it to each other but not to you he battled he won the battle

I don't know my one my one kid the middle one he has an ear infection he woke up in the middle of that crying like tears come out my dear ears my ear hurts my ear hurts I'm like great you have an ear infection so we went to the doctor ear infection that's not contagious true um the other one he had like a cough all week

and then finally on Friday I took him to the doctor and they gave him one of them inhaler yeah And that's supposed to help. And that's it. Oh. But where's the bug, though? Those are the, I mean,

there's the battle. Yeah. They said it was like a virus that probably just got his, you know. You made it sound like hungry, hungry hippos. And now we're just kind of bored. But the ear's not a bug. Yeah. Oh, the ear's not a bug?

No, it's not a bug. Unless it was brought on by some other. You get sick and then it gets caught in your ear. We hope they get better. But mostly we hope you don't bring it to us. I mean, but look at me. Woo! Like a champ.

He just cursed it. Like he brings in. pink eye. All of it. You name it. I mean, my wife was coughing and stuff too. Oh, boy, here we go. Sully, unrattling.

Morgan, how's your weekend? Yeah, so I did something that I think you would, are you going to try it? Yeah, I was going to record you. So I did something that you would really enjoy. I went and paintballed zombies. Oh, that's fine. Yeah, so there's this like haunted place out in Columbia, Tennessee, where they have a haunted woods, and then they have a haunted hay ride.

And it's all set up apocalyptic. And there's literal live people that are. dressed in padded stuff and you get to paintball them every time they pop out. Are you in a truck back of a truck while you do it? Yeah, on like a hay barrel and you're sitting there and you're just shooting and you can have as many canisters as you want. That sounds terrible for the zombie.

Like, he just gets shot all day? No, it's fun. Oh, okay. And they don't get to shoot. Oh, the kids get to go? Yeah, it's all. Are you burying the headline? Oh, was it? What's the headline? Were you on a date? Oh, no, that one wasn't a date. No. That was a girl's night. We were shooting zombies. And then we did go in the haunted woods. But no, that one was not a date.

I never know. Except for stories, you know. You never know. Hey, by the way, our Pimp and Joy stuff is up. We're going to put it up. We have, I mean, it's been up. But bobby bones.com, all the money from it goes to the Hurricane Helene and Milton and how they're, you know, bouncing back. I did see that the Combs church show sold out in like six or seven hours. And that was like a football stadium. Awesome.

So yeah, congratulations to those guys for doing that. but if you guys want to go, you'll see the Pimp and Joy shirts and the old school black Pimp and Joy hat. And we brought that back. We haven't forever. And again, we don't keep any of the money. Just go to BobbyBones.com. It's been 10 years. That's crazy, huh?

I'm working my way up through, and I know it's a place that come look for up and coming talent. He said, if it was based solely on talent, I wouldn't worry about you, which is really sweet. Yeah. He goes, but there's so much luck involved. And he's like, just give it a shot. He goes, but if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit.

In 2023, former bachelor star Clayton Eckerd found himself at the center of a paternity scandal. The family court hearings that followed revealed glaring inconsistencies in her story. This began a years-long court battle to prove the truth. You doctored this particular test twice in someone's, correct? I doctored the test ones. It took an army of internet detectives to crack the case. I wanted people to be able to see what their tax dollars were being used for. Sunlight's the greatest disinfected.

They would uncover a disturbing pattern. Two more men who'd been through the same thing. Greg Lepin and Michael Maranini. My mind was blown. I'm Stephanie Young. This is Love Trap. Laura, Scottsdale Police. As the season continues, Laura Owens finally faces consequences.

Ladies and gentlemen, breaking news at Americopa County as Laura Owens has been indicted on fraud charges. This isn't over until justice is served in Arizona. Listen to Love Trapped podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Our back? So, oh yeah, I'm flying Arkansas right after this. I'm going to accept the Arkansas Under the Year Award. Really? Yeah, at noon.

Wait, so this is your year? Like, you've got the whole year? Well, I don't think it's a forward, like, you are now the Arkansas into the year, you get free reign for a year. I think they recognize- But you are, the Arkansasin of the year. I think it's recognized backward. Oh. So you were the Arkansasian in the last year?

I guess. And they've had, like, they've given it to like Sam Walton, Bill Clinton. Oh. Yeah, it's pretty significant. That's awesome. Super happy about it. So I'm going to go today. after we finish here, I'm going to fly over there.

I'll be back later this evening, so we'll be here tomorrow. We're going to work out still? I don't think we'll be back in time. However, we are going to, we'll probably get back around 3.30 if you want to play pickleball. Yeah. I do want to play pickleball. Cool. That'll be our workout.

Yeah. Lunchbox, you'll like pickleball? Nah, probably not. Why not? You got a bug going on. I'm sick. Buggling bugs. Yeah, battling bugs.

I don't want to bring. I mean, I'll just text you when we get back and then, because we'll be a little too late to go workout with Kluge. Okay. But I'm going to go do that today. I've got to give a speech. Do you know, do you have it written? You're in practice?

No, I don't have it written. It's from the heart. Yeah, and it'll be a little different because it's like my people, like Arkansas people. It's not really like an industry award type thing, which is definitely different. Which I did one of those last week. I could talk about that in a minute. But I had a suit. I was going through suits yesterday.

I hate trying on suits that I own because I feel like I put it on and I just hate myself because I'm like, oh, I don't wait. I can't fit the suit anymore. Although I have lost. I'm not back to where I feel really good about myself yet, but I'm not, also I'm not hating myself. I say that as a joke when I can't fit a suit.

But I think, I started taking that medicine. I've lost 24 pounds in, but like five months. God, that's a lot of weight. 24 pounds. I've been working hard. Like, not even working hard, because, like, the exercise only so much,

but, like, discipline diet. Oof, that's tough. That's the hard part. Very. and I'll eat at certain times. Because to me, if I don't discipline my diet, I don't, I'll do little snacks all night. And then I'll not, how have I not lost any weight?

And it's like, bro, you eat a whole thing of crackers. No, I have two bowls of cereal a week, but it's also a healthy-ish cereal. I need to make small alterations because if I do any sort of massive stops, I'll fall off the wagon. But I don't like put on suits, and I'm like, oh, this doesn't fit.

My wife's like, it's from like nine years ago. Like, and I'm like, that's a good point. But I found one yesterday that I like that fit. And it was just a little too. She was like, why don't you find like a tan or brown suit? So I went and found one. I was like, what about this? And it was a little too light.

And I was like, I can't, it's almost burnt orange. I can't wear it. Oh. She was like, why does that matter? I'm like burnt orange. You can't wear that in Arkansas? I can't wear it. No.

She was like it's not. She goes, it's kind of orangey. It's kind of brownish. Like a, I was like, it's. so close to burnt orange, I can never walk into my home state. Even someone thinking, is it possibly not even burnt, a warm orange? So I can't. For those that don't know, that's Texas. And I love, I love you people from Austin, and individually I love Texas fans, but as a group, I hate the Longhorns. And mostly it's jealousy because they have more money than us, they're bigger than us,

and they beat us most of the time. That's why anybody hates any team. It's a respect thing, right? Like, we hate Tennessee at Arkansas. It's because their overall record, even though we beat them four times in a row, their overall record is better than us. And proximity is a big deal too, right? You don't really hate teams

that are nine states away. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I try to explain that to people. They're like, well, you hate them? I'm like, well, you only hate teams you respect because you hate getting beat by them more than anything because they've either beat you a lot

or they're, it's like losing to your cousin or brother. You have to hear it all the time. You know what I mean? So anyway, I hate the longhorns. And I don't want to wear a burnt horn suit to the thing today. So what'd you find? It's kind of dark green, I'm told. Because you can't see that? I thought it was black and my wife's like, no, it's kind of a dark greenish bag. She goes, it's good though. I like it. So I'm wearing that. So I have that

on the car in a garment bag, aka a trash bag that I put a hanger through the top hole. That's awesome. Way to do it. Hey, keep it real, man. That's, yeah, of course. I didn't want anything to get on it. That's how we did it. We didn't even do garment bags, but then once I started to have to do garment bags, In my career early, I was like, what? A garment bag? So I just stick it in a trash bag and rip the hanger through the top of it. That's funny. So that's what's hanging up in the back of my car.

I'm going to go do that. Hopefully it's not a scented trash bag. Oh, yeah. It smells like a game. Why would I not want that? Oh, because that was very powerful. I would smell great. It's not like a trash bag.

Who cares? It's one of those trash bags that smell good? Yeah, but the trash bags that smell good to me, don't smell good because it's like, ugh. That would be awesome. I went this weekend. I hosted the Marconi's, which is a big radio award for, it's like a national broadcast, national associate and broadcaster award. And last year, Rich Eisen hosted it. And so they asked me to host it this year. And I was like, sure. So I went to New York. There's some good, there's some bad, and there's some, I'm confused by. You ready for them? Yeah. Okay.

The good. I thought overall I gave my performance a B plus because wrote some jokes, Mike wrote some jokes. We kind of went over them, you know, modified them for the event. I feel like for the most part, jokes went pretty good. Once I got there, though, I realized it wasn't the exact environment for a long set of jokes because as we were doing the award show, people were eating dinner. So I can't really do a long monologue, but what I can do is put jokes in different places, quick ones. So I thought overall, I give myself a B-plus, which is very high for me because I hate me.

So, yay for me. Okay. I met Ricky Smiley, who was awesome, a famous comedian, but also does a national radio show. And I'd done some jokes, and he came back after he had won an award or presented an award. And he was like, and again, he's been, he's so famous as a stand-up, and he doesn't even live here. his face is painted on the comedy clubs outside wall here. At Zanis. At Zanis.

His face is painted. Yeah, where it's like Carlos Mendoza. That guy. So he came up and he was like, dude, you're the goat. And I was like, thank you. And he was like, I don't expect him to know anything about really, even the radio show.

I don't expect him to know anything. He was like, you're the goat. And he was like, so you're doing stand up now? And I was like, yeah, I've been trying it for, you know, a few years. And he was like, man, just keep doing it. gonna get real funny and in me i'm thinking of myself gonna get i'm already funny and i'm already funny and i'm like gonna get he's like just stay on stage you're gonna get so funny what i know he meant that as a compliment yeah but all i can hear is gonna get yeah but it was

that part was good um i've only ever sent apologies after three jokes after three jokes ever one of them was when I did one of my first comedically inspirational shows and I was doing hey if I were hosting the CMAs these are the jokes that I would make and I should preface this by saying because I'm going to walk you through a couple of the jokes I should preface this by saying I need to change my requirements for jokes that I feel like I can make towards people out in the crowd right now they are am I making fun of me more than I'm making fun of me more than I'm making fun of anybody else. If the answer is yes, I feel I'm a bit open to go after others that I feel comfortable with. I would never go after anybody if I didn't go after me much, much harder and

earlier. So I do that at first, and I'm just doing self-deprecating jokes, jokes about me, you know, gas station, Ryan Seacrest, that's what people know me at, that kind of stuff, right? And so that gets some good laughs. But I go hard on me first. Secondly, is it funny for the purpose of the joke, not for the purpose of it being malicious in any way. Meaning, in a roast joke, you're just, for the most part, you're just not being cutting mean. It needs to be funnier than it is mean or it's not worth it. And so I'm like, okay, the joke before this that I apologized for was I did a joke about Dan Smyers, who is a friend of mine, and this is when Dan had the real long hair and the beard. And I don't remember the joke exactly, so it won't be

as funny. But I was like, voice, Dan is Shay, voice of an angel. But it still looks like if you went into Dan's basement, he'd sell you some skunk weed or something, right, based on his look. And it got a good laugh. But I messaged him after, and I was like, hey, you're my friend. I hope that that wasn't offensive to you. And he was like, no, it wasn't. It was funny. I was like, just want to make sure.

Some of the jokes, I feel like don't even need apologies because people, like Lainey Wilson. I was like, she's from Louisiana. Can't even spell something. And they laugh. And I'm like, he'll be only, he'll bully crime. I'm from Arkansas. all right so a lot of so i did the day and one the one i was worried about at the beginning was i have a friend named valentine in l.a and i was like i even told katelyn i was like here's this

joke i'm going to say and i know valentine and i really like valentine and i hope he doesn't get mad because it's in a room of peers and so i'm up i do a couple jokes a couple that i just came up with right there which is always kind of risky and i said you know i come to these award shows and when i go to these award shows usually i'm like the least famous person here but i saw valentine for war tonight. Dang tonight I'm like freaking Taylor Swift. Right? And so... Was he there?

Yeah. That's why I made the joke. He's in the back. And I know him really well. Obviously you just said I just saw him. Yeah. So I mess. I want to tell you what I wrote him. So I said, this is me messaging him.

Hey, sorry I didn't see. I tried to find you after. You're one of the only people there that I knew and liked. So I hope it was okay that I roasted you with a joke. It was just out of fun. And if you didn't think it was funny, I apologize, but I still love you. So I'll write him that. He doesn't respond until the next morning, but it was late. He goes, what?

No, I loved it. It was the only shout out I got from the stage last night. I appreciate you. That's funny. Wish I had a chance to say hello. Let me know next time you're in Burbank, blah, blah, blah. So I was like, oh, thank God. So we're backstage.

And because the hurricane, there were a lot of people from Florida and like that northeast, even Milton, that could not come. So if people won an award, they could not come and give their acceptance speech. Thank you. So we were like 25 minutes ahead of schedule. It's like an hour and 40 minutes show, but the thing was going to be done in like 55 minutes. Perfect. Well, they didn't want it to be done that quick because there's food that comes out.

I'm thinking for you. So I was talking to the person who's running the show, and she was like, we're like half an hour ahead of time. And all I hear is, well, time for me to go and do my thing. down for me to go and do some bits. Come on. And so I'd kind of been given clearance to go out and just talk to the crowd. And so I think to myself,

I should do a bit where, because they do all the nominees and only the person that wins gets to come up. And I knew there were college kids there. And I think to myself, I should do a bit where anybody who didn't win who wants to,

because they're already giving me my award. They gave me a humanitarian award for like a charity, blah, blah, blah, good guy, whatever. And so I was like, anybody who didn't win, they can come up and take a picture on stage holding my award. And they can, and I'll say it costs five bucks and we'll give it all of the college kids at the end of the night. And so, Rye is about to go on stage.

I get a text from somebody else in the crowd. They're like, oh, I didn't win. And I don't know who's winning the awards. I can't hear that. I'm in the back. Just getting ready. And so the guy texts me, who I know a little bit. He's like, we didn't win.

It sucks. So I walk out there and I know them. And I'm like, all right, so here's the deal. Some of you guys that didn't win, I'm going to let you guys come up and take a picture with my award. it's like I can make a wish. And so I caught him up and I could tell immediately he didn't, he didn't like it. So, okay, whatever, we take the picture and I'm like, that was not, I didn't feel like that was met well. And my whole purpose was kill time, let people who didn't win come up on stage and take a picture.

I thought it would be funny holding any award. And then we would just like send the college kids to dinner. I'd gone four layers deep in my head. Never got there because I felt so bad about it. I could just tell that. But I thought to myself, would I like it if someone did that to me? And I was like, yeah, that'd be hilarious. Wait, you just lost?

No, not just, but I don't know when the awards had happened. But sometime in the night, anybody that didn't win, I was going to say, hey, if you guys want to come up, even though you didn't win, come up on stage, take a picture with an award. I know, I'm just thinking of you, like you've... Oh, I would still think it was funny. Okay, I do too. I would also want to get on stage.

Like Valentine, he got nominated and didn't get a shout out. I'd also want to be up on stage. So did you do a check-in with that person? I'll just say it was not I didn't know him well enough to do that bit with him That was what I shouldn't have done Because he was a little more serious Than I thought it should have been

And so Did he give you five bucks? No, no five bucks Oh I didn't move on to the... Yeah, you ended the bit right there I ended the bit I was like And I wouldn't have even thought of him

But he texted me right before I went on stage To do this bit And I was like oh top of mind I'll do hit He's like the one person I know Yeah wasn't this that one wasn't great. I should have picked somebody different.

I should have picked Ricky Smiley. Or somebody that I felt like would have understood it was supposed to kind of be dopey and awkward. Then we send the college kids at dinner or whatever. Other than that, I feel like it was pretty A-plus. Did you know you were going to get an award? They told you, yes. Yes.

I don't know if that was a surprise. It kind of was supposed to. to be. Well, I'm back there doing rehearsal and I see it. Oh, it has your name on it. But I already knew, yeah. Did you act like you didn't know though? No. You didn't act surprised like, me, what? No. No, and I already knew

I was getting like a humanitarian thing, but I didn't know it was going to be presented at that. I just didn't put the pieces together. So, I would say overall, it was a success. But take big swing. Sometimes you hit home runs. Sometimes you miss real big. But yeah, I sent those are the three apologies I sent off to Dan who was like don't worry about it to Valentine who was like are you kidding I was just happy to get acknowledged from the stage

and then I sent one off to the other guy and you know it was what it was and I felt bad about it I felt bad that he didn't like it what he replied it doesn't matter it's it's his own he did reply so I will not I won't I'm going to share what he said okay but I was like if I didn't it to anybody else I should know my mistake was not doing it to somebody I knew well he had your number he did And I wouldn't have thought, still, it gives me no, doesn't matter. What I thought it was funny said to me? Yes.

Because I'd have been like, I'd have held it above my head like Stanley Cup. Yeah, yeah, I know. We're a little different. I know. We're a little different. At one point, too, the DJ who was super funny. Sorry, my mouth's dry. The DJ who was super funny.

I would have thought of it's Bobby, so I know, I know, I know. DJ Scratch, who works in New York. He would play songs for people that won an award. And he was like, I got a song for you. And he called me over. And he starts playing like Sweet Home Alabama. I was like, you give me the widest. That's funny.

And so then he's like, get on the turntables. I don't know what I'm doing. Get on the turntables, mix it up. Did you? Yeah. Okay. Like, I'll jump in. I'll jump into anything.

You're like Friday morning dance party. And I'm like, it's terrible. I did a terrible, terrible job. Overall, I give myself a B plus. It was a good night. I got a nice award. Left it in the hotel and the hotel staff. No, no, I took it home with me about left in the hotel while we were there over the weekend in New York.

And the hotel staff wrote a note. And they were like, dear Mr. Bones, we see your award here. Congratulations on the humanitarian award. You seem to be a great guy. Oh, there's something like that. That's nice. And I was like, where's my chocolate? That's a bummer down.

Where's my towels I needed? I mean some chocolate or something. But that was my weekend. Ricky Smiley was really, really cool, though. Yeah Okay Anything else I need to get to Because Morgan said

I needed to be on for 30 minutes Are you on? You've passed it, we're good We're doing our TikTok live We're moving to a new studio next week And we'll have more capabilities To do a lot of stuff Lunchbox

Who watches my TikTok? Because I have a secret It's not a secret I don't publicize it But I've got a secret TikTok page Where I just like show sports cards I've got graded and I don't ever promote it, but I do have it.

I think it's Bobby Bone Sports on TikTok. It's me and cards, right? I said them off to get graded. I go over the grades. Who's been watching that? Jason Aldeen. How did you know? Talked to someone in Aldean's camp that's close to Aldean said they were sitting on the bus.

They saw one of your TikToks. They looked at each other and said... Like TikTok's from my nerd account? I don't know. They just said Bobby's TikTok. Yeah. And now Al Dean and him are buying cards and getting I'm graded and buying packs and boxes and...

Oh, it's a slippery slow. And so Al Dean is all in. That's awesome. Yeah. So you influenced Al Dean. And so I'm just saying, you're an influencer. I have, yeah, thank you. Yeah, I have, like, here's, I'm opening a box of Topps Chrome.

It says, here's a $500 box of Topps Chrome. And then I open them. And then I just show them as I opened them. I didn't invent this. But yeah, I do. What's my biggest one? Yeah. Look at me.

I'm a little card influencer. You are. Al Dean got, you got Al Dean on it. Should you get a Chrome sponsorship? I'm sure Al, well, no, that's just one type of brand. I'm sure Al Dean did it at one point like I did. Yeah, like him and so it's DJ Silver. Him and they were like talking about it like, man, we used to do this as kids.

And they were watching your videos like, should we try this again? I mean, we did his kids and we loved it. And so now they do it and they're sending cards off to get graded. Which I have not looked at these yet. This is me opening graded car. It's so nerdy. I love it. It's fun though, man.

Okay. Hey, look at me. Regular social media influencer. Influency. Ray, what was the thing that upper management sent? It was in an email about how we need to do bits? Yeah, there's, it says talent coaching, the new guidelines to follow if you want them. To do bits?

Yeah. Oh, I didn't get that email. When you started. bit. This is the new guidelines. Okay. Can I guess? Sure. How I try to do a segment now is, and I think people mess up on social media doing this too. When people get on social media, they'll pull up a video on the day, what's up guys, Bobby here, hope your Friday's good. And I'm already, I've already swiped off of it. Like if you don't say in the first five seconds, what I'm going to be watching or why I should watch, I'm out. And plus they know your Bobby.

They went to your page. Maybe not, because you could be, the for you pages, why I see everything. Oh, yeah. Yeah. So, YP. So I bet it's something to do with that because that's how we do the show. I'll say what we're going to do in the first few seconds. That's one of them. There's a new eight-second rule. You have to get to your point within eight seconds of starting a bit. Shoot, I would say four to five where it's like, this is what we're going to do.

Even if you back off that after a minute, it's okay to do that. If it's like, hey, this segment we'll talk about how I influenced Jason and Al-Dan, you won't believe this. Which, by the way, the air is on like 68 to it's freezing in here. But I've already said what we're about to do so people aren't going to leave if they cared about what we're about to do. That makes sense? Yes. Or if I come on, I'm like, man, it's cold in here. Unless I'm about to get to that whole thing.

Like, I can't get my nipples and not be hard. Then it's, why would I do that? So that's why you go like straight, like as soon as the show, think, boom, Bobby Bone show. And then you go like, we're drafting cookies. Absolutely. And that's only because of me watching social media the last couple years and stealing what they do because I only stay interested in things

when people tell me exactly what they're going to do. They can get away from it for a second, but I need to know immediately up front. That's interesting. They're telling people that now. That's good. What else? You can't talk about things that only you care about.

Not true. That's a whole show. Yeah, that's all we do. I think they're talking to like actual DJs, right? Yeah, I mean, I guess if you're doing a bit, they say it has to be all inclusive of the listener as well. That's a tough one for me, okay? Not allowed to ramble or meander. Amy, we got to let you go. Amy.

Well, served me well for 18 years. This is different than like a talk show. I think this is like music jocks. Right here. Go ahead. You can't talk too much about yourself. Oh, gone. I'm out of here.

Amy, we're both of us. We're out of here. We don't have a job anymore. Go ahead. Don't yell. Sorry, lunchbox. Last one is you can't talk about inside conversations. Okay, whoopsie.

Yeah. It's been good, good. Knowing you guys, we're retiring. I think generally those are great rules. For day parted, what they call, middays, afternoons, even some morning shows. we're lucky to have been on a very long time and we do abide by some of those

but we do state our purpose quickly up front and then sometimes we don't even get to it let's be honest yeah like I don't do any of this on women of I hurt country I don't mean yeah but that's only that's very much a music show I know boy I get to the point that's very much there

there's no other point there's two content breaks no no but I'm saying that that content's never about you that's about exactly no you're missing the point this show is about us she agrees with you though. I know. I'm done. All right, that's it. Thank you, Ray. Thank you. Morgan, we're good on time.

Yep, we're good. Thank you, everybody. Post-show. I'm heading to Arkansas. There'll be no 25 whistles today because I have to go to Arkansas and we have Bob Stoops tomorrow, so we're going to do that tomorrow. Bob Stoops. Do you know that is? But I was going to hype it up. Oh, I'm pretty excited about that. Yeah, I know. I mean, it sounds legit. He sounds legit. No, he sounds legit. I know I've heard that, but I don't know him.

Thank you, everybody. Sounds legit. tomorrow by everybody. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what I'm saying. Yep, that's me. Clifford Taylor the 4th.
