They start with a soil test and climate data to build a yard plan tailor to where you live, then ship everything directly to your door. no guesswork, no dragging bags of fertilizer. And instead of harsh chemicals, Sunday uses simple, nutrient-dense ingredients like seaweed, molasses, and iron.
Starting point is 00:02:09 Everything hooks up to a hose, which honestly sounds like my speed. If your yard feels more stressful than satisfying, Sunday's approach makes a lot of sense.

Eddie and I had so much fun playing a raging idiot show. Heck, we did two shows on board.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Let's do it again. We're back March 27 aboard the luxurious Celebrity Summit, departing from Tampa, heading to beautiful destinations, Key West, Bimini, and Cozumel.

Hey guys, welcome to Monday show. Morning studio. Morning. Eddie, what's the drama and your kids' flag football,
Starting point is 00:03:42 oh, boy, oh, boy. Because they've been playing flag football for how long? This is their fourth game. Four weeks? First season ever? First season ever. Okay. And so the team's 0-and-4.
Starting point is 00:03:52 They're not very good. Actually, they stink. The other teams just run over them every game. And I don't know. You're talking to a team of first and second graders, right? So there's emails flying from parents to the coaches saying, guys, this is not good. Our team is losing.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Maybe some of the other dads that know more about football need to step in. Who are the coaches? Just volunteer dads. That's it. And they have to take all this from other parents? Yes. So then I'm kind of in the middle. Like, sure, I don't like losing.
Starting point is 00:04:23 But at the same time, you're talking about two dads that are volunteering their time. And you're telling them, like, you need a coach better? Like, I don't know. I'm kind of in between. So I wanted to bring it to you and be like, well, is it that important to win? I know lunchbox is really big on like, oh, you got to win. It doesn't matter how old you are. But they're really bad.
Starting point is 00:04:40 So I'm thinking, like, do we care if they win or are they just having fun because they're first and second graders? Where do you stand on this? I think it depends on if the players are any good or not. If you have good athletic players and you're still losing, probably you could pull someone else in to help a little bit. But if it's all new kids, it is. I don't care if you get Mike Ditka. I did God. They're not going to win.
Starting point is 00:05:03 That's what I'm saying. Because I assume it's a lot of kids like your kids, first time players. Yes, it's their first time. They're really just learning the game. Yeah, I don't think that you insult. First of all, the parents that have already volunteered. Like, they're here volunteering their time and they have to be harassed going, we need better.
Starting point is 00:05:18 And that's what the coaches are saying. And it's like, well, they pay for better. Yeah, the coach is like, okay, look, we're volunteering our time. If you want us to get better, then maybe you guys practice at home, get your kid better or some of the dads chip in and let's all start. start coaching. You get a bunch of coaches. You're not going to have any coaches. It's just going to be kids going absolutely bonkers, especially at that age. I agree. My recommendation would be just chill from your side of it. Just chill. Oh, you don't want me to come in and be like,
Starting point is 00:05:44 let me coach this team. I'll take over. I don't think you should coach. I don't think you should encourage them to want to take over. I would even be on the voice of, hey, let's let these dads do what they volunteer to do. And why don't we all work with our kids privately a little more, get them a little better. And then if we still feel there's a problem later, if our kids are good, then we can address it. Okay?
Starting point is 00:06:03 Okay. Let's go over and open up the mailbag. You send an email and we read it all the air. It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Yeah. She says morning studio. My name is Mandy. The other day my cousin set me up
Starting point is 00:06:18 with the interior designer she hired a decorate her house. I honestly didn't know that many men would be in that field. Apparently there are. We went out, had a nice time, and normally I'd look forward to going out with him again. He was just a little too pretty for me. Now, I'm 38 years old. I've never been married, so maybe I'm being a little too picky, as my cousin would say.
Starting point is 00:06:37 But am I the only woman who feels like she needs a guy to get a little dirt under his fingernails at the end of the day? Then again, if I play my cards right, I could get my entire house decorated impeccably. Anyone ever had a guy whose job was a little too female? Signed Mandy. First of all, I don't have dirt under my finger. fingernails. You don't. Never. And if Caitlin felt like this, I would just be up S Creek without a paddle. And I'm not. I would say, and I'm going to say this from personal experience, you've got to
Starting point is 00:07:09 break your old mental habits if you want something different to happen in your life. If you're 30 years old and you've never been married and you've wanted to be married, and you're like, you can't figure it out. Well, the first step to figuring it out is to realize you can't keep doing the same things and expect different results. And if you've been judging people based on things like their job. They have something you disagree with that makes sense, but maybe it's time to jump out of your little tiny comfort bubble because your comfort bubble's not working for you right now. So, you just got to get over it.
Starting point is 00:07:39 Now, you may find something about him later that you don't like, but you can't hold his job against him. The number one thing is to find somebody with a passion for what they do, regardless of whatever it is. If he has a passion for being an interior designer, that's fantastic. Think about what he can do at your house. Think about what he can do for your friends. Think about the money he can make.
Starting point is 00:07:59 Think about the availability he can have for the kids because he gets to dictate his own schedule. Like there are so many pros with a job like that that I would think the fact that he's not out with a shovel should not make you want to keep from dating him. My thoughts. Amy? I think it sounds amazing.
Starting point is 00:08:17 You need to go out with him. Don't even worry about it at all. I have a friend that kind of a similar situation. if she's going out with a new guy and he doesn't show up and have a pickup truck and a beard and like a work on a ranch or a farm she's turned off by it. And I'm like, you're not going to,
Starting point is 00:08:40 there's so many awesome guys out there and I feel like you limit your circle of who you're going to come in contact with simply because of a truck because it's not manly enough for you. So I feel like that's the same. It's stuff we've just have. in our heads from who knows what growing up and you need to let it go. And then, yes, think about the amazing house that you're going to have as long as you like
Starting point is 00:09:01 his taste. And there's something to say for someone who will hang out for exactly the right person, right? I did. Yeah. However, you just can't complain about you not finding the right person if you've decided I'm going to hang out forever until I find the exact right person for me that does exactly what I need them to do. So you can't be like, oh, I can't find anybody.
Starting point is 00:09:18 But you're letting great guys pass by or at least a shot of the great guy. Eddie? I mean, I am going to go the opposite. I believe that if you're not happy with what you're getting at the beginning, like she already has a problem with whatever this person is, that now when they get married, if she settles for him, she's going to be like, they have little problems here and there. I knew it.
Starting point is 00:09:40 I didn't like him in the beginning with because he's too, whatever, he's to this, he's to that. So if there's already questioned before anything else, I think it could lead into bigger problems later. Lunchbox. I mean, yeah. You look, this is why women are crazy. They complain about not being able to find good dudes. And this seems like a good dude.
Starting point is 00:10:02 And just because he doesn't have dirt under his fingernails, she's going to cast him aside. That's why you're lonely at 32 years old. 38. 38. Oh, 38, even worse. You're running out of time. We better get someone.
Starting point is 00:10:13 All right. Our advice to you as a group collectively, three versus one is get over it. At least give him a shot. If you find something else, but he may be the guy. Don't judge him. Who knows?
Starting point is 00:10:23 He may be such a good interior designer because he had built decks for a long time and he figured out. You just don't know people's stories until you learn their stories. I think we're going to end it there.
Starting point is 00:10:32 Yeah. Get over yourself. That's what we're going to end it with. We've got your email and we read it on your air. Now it's about to close. Bobby's mailback. Yeah.

This show is brought to you by BetterHelp. stress is one of the things that we don't always talk about, but it hits harder than we realize. It's not just numbers in a bank account.

There are moments where it's overwhelming, where no matter how hard you work, you feel like you just can't quite get ahead. And what you learn is that stress isn't just financial. It's emotional. That's why it's important to check in with yourself, because struggling,

Starting point is 00:15:03 You knew what to get. Yeah. So how'd you know exactly what to get? So I'm going to give you all the ingredients? So Cappy, my manager, told me that you and your girl got your own drink. It's on it. Well, we made it ourselves. It's not like a bootleg drink.
Starting point is 00:15:17 It's not on the menu. Sonic wants nothing to do with it yet. But yeah, he brought it. It's water with extra ice, nerds, fruit in it. So I told him, that's super nice. You thought about me. So I tell you why I wanted you to come on the show today was I was in Virginia on a corn farm. And I'm in the combine and we're driving and we're cutting the corn down.
Starting point is 00:15:37 I'm learning how the whole process works. And there's a bigger radio on the combine. And the farmer, who I'm with, who owns the combines, he's like, hey, what do you want listen to. And I was like, well, whatever you have up here. He had, you know, the radio stations, he had satellite, he had streaming. And I said, what do you like? And he started listening some songs he liked. And he said, you know what song I really like? And he listed all kinds of formats of all kinds of songs. He's like, I like, you know, Biggie? I like some of the Delta Blues. He goes, you know what song I liked that? I like that song, Good Time by Nico Moon.
Starting point is 00:16:05 And I was like, really goes, yeah, that's my jam right now. And I was like, man, that's awesome. So a corn farmer randomly brought you up as we're inside a combine. And he's, and he, and he, He loves that song Good Time, so I'm so glad you're here. Would you play a verse and chorus a good time for our listeners here? Yeah, of course. Nico has his guitar here with us. We just trying to catch a good time, even if it takes all night. Pass that bottle around the campfire, sipping apple pie moonshine.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Yeah, we're picking on them guitars just right. Everybody's singing Dixie Land. delight like a barber on a wet line we just trying to catch a good time look at this here that's awesome man you sound so good how long ago did you write this song man this song every path of a song is kind of like takes a different little turn this one was a really long time coming it's probably about a three year in the making song is that right i started it about three years ago when my buddy's mark Trussell and Jordan Minton here in town. And then two years later, I decided I wanted to kind of make that step from being a songwriter producer and to being an artist. And I remember that song
Starting point is 00:17:23 we wrote a couple years back. And I showed it to my wife, who's my co-writer on all my stuff. And we write everything together. And I was like, this song was so cool. And I feel like it's such like my vibe and my little heart, like what I like to say with my country music. But if we could like make a couple tweaks and it would just be perfect for me. And so we made the tweaks and recorded it. So yeah, it was like four years in the making. That's crazy. Sometimes it's like four hours and sometimes it's four years.
Starting point is 00:17:51 Nico's also written before we hear about your story real quick. You wrote Keep Me in Mind with Zach Brown. He has four number one's with Zach Brown. Which jam? This song is a jam. You have Homegrown 2015. You have one that you and Zach wrote called Beautiful Drug. 2015 and loving you easy here you go that's awesome man thank you you must be rolling in it I'll be here
Starting point is 00:18:27 dang come on now I have a I have a lot of fun helping other artists kind of like fully realize themselves songwriting is is just such a integral part of what I love to do with music it was the first thing I started doing and yeah like when I write when I write for somebody it's almost like I try to pretend like I'm them. So like when I write with Zach, like I'll put on my little imaginary beanie and my imaginary leather vest and my imaginary five kids. And then I'll be like, all right, what's important to me now? You know?
Starting point is 00:19:01 But it's fun now because now I'm just doing my thing. Yeah, like a method actor, method songwriter. Yeah, exactly. But now I'm doing my thing and I'm not putting on anything imaginary. I'm just kind of being myself. You have parents that are still songwriters? They songwriters? Yeah, they're both songwriters.
Starting point is 00:19:15 And you wanted to do that. And you see the struggle? of it and you still were like this is what I want to do. Yeah, they did it for fun. And some of my first memories are like crawling in the living room as a baby and watching them sitting in Indian style in the living room like writing songs together. So I was literally born into it. And they really raised me with this deep, deep appreciation for songwriting and the craft of making music. And my dad's a gigantic John Pryan fan. Did he work with John Pry for a bit? No. Your dad didn't work with him at all? He's a drummer. He's a musician and played with a lot of
Starting point is 00:19:46 people, but he never played with John. Just a big fan of John. And so if that was probably the first song I ever heard, was probably a John Prine song. Are you, you're one of the guys, too, that I look at, and I'm so jealous of because you are an athlete as well. Yeah. Dang, him, all right. Yeah, you've gone deep. And so you had an athletic scholarship at Sanford University. Is that true? Yeah, I got a full ride. For what? A track. Are you kidding me. You guys drive me nuts that are so good at everything. You hear writing songs. You got you live the, you look like an indie, you know, indie country guy, you got your tattoos, you live the lifestyle for sure. And then you're like, yeah, I was a division track star. I could have got it through.
Starting point is 00:20:23 I'm like, what did you do bad? You're a good looking guy. You got it all, man. Oh, that is, that is. Well, I'll tell you this, I flunked out of college on my full ride because I had a point two GPA because I never went to class because I was too busy being in my room, learning how to play songs. And yeah, like, that's when the passion to really want to be an artist hit me was my freshman year of college. And I just didn't want to go to class. So there, Bobby, you have that on him. You went to class every day.
Starting point is 00:20:53 I did every day, dang it. And you're the big star. And I'm not, so what does I tell you? You made your Opry debut on October 10th. And that has to, I know what it's like to hop in that circle for the first time. Was it nuts to you? It was the most amazing, epic experience I've had in my career so far. I mean, every country artist who's ever meant something to me,
Starting point is 00:21:18 who's ever influenced me, stood on that piece of wood. And I told everybody when I walked in, I was like, you know, it's crazy because it's just a piece of wood. Like, there's nothing special about the wood itself, but at the same time, it's the most special spot in country music because of everyone who stood here. How did you feel about your performance? I feel good about it.
Starting point is 00:21:43 I mean, I was nervous. I was sweating up a storm. But, you know, of course, I'm probably my biggest critic. And, like, you know, there's definitely a couple of moments where I'm like, I can't do that better. But in general, I'm happy with myself. It's time for the good news. With Amy. Tell me something good.
Starting point is 00:22:04 So there's this guy in Phoenix. His name is Damien Page. And back in 1997, he had a friend that needed a kidney. So Damien stepped up. a match and donated to him. Well, now here we are 23 years later and Damien found himself in the exact same position now needing a kidney from somebody else. And somebody stepped in, gave him their kidney and he's fully recovering. But a cool part of this story too is that I guess when he went in for it and realized he needed the transplant, they said, you got to lose a little weight.
Starting point is 00:22:39 So he put in the hard work, lost 100 pounds, and then got the transplant. Wow. So many elements to the story. First of all, he gave somebody a kidney. Years ago, 1997 gave somebody a kidney. That's crazy shout out to you. Needed one. Somebody gave him a kidney. And then he lost 100 pounds too. Wow, that's a great story.
Starting point is 00:22:55 That is what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good.

Starting point is 00:26:29 Yeah. Are you ready for your nighttime candy? That's how you talk to him? What on earth? It sounded like a creepy person next door. No, I try to like, in my gentle voice, it's time for nighttime candy. It's melatonin gummies. Oh, my gosh. And he doesn't know that you're knocking them out with gummies?
Starting point is 00:26:44 Amy, this is borderline creepy. No, they work. No, no, no, no. So he needs sleep. You know, if a kid has stuff going on, the acronym you can use to address the situation is halt. Are they hungry, angry, tired, or lonely or tired? That's true.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Any of those four things, very true. So we figured out some stuff maybe with our son is that he's very tired and he's not sleeping. And so his therapist was talking to us about Melody. And so, I mean, we went to the store immediately, got some. And now we all take them. They're full of sugar. Don't get me wrong.
Starting point is 00:27:25 I'm like, okay, they are basically nighttime candy. And I was doubtful at first. But 30 minutes after you give it to him, he's snoring. Do you worry about him taking them and then getting used to them? Then you've got to start doubling up, tripling up. But it's melatonin. I thought that that was safe. your body produces that anyway.
Starting point is 00:27:46 So I have no idea. I have worried about that. It's not like I'm giving him Nike will every night. It's over-the-counter Z's. I need to do that halt with me. When I come in and I'm cranky, I'm like, all right, I'm hungry. Am I an a-hole? What's this thing?
Starting point is 00:27:59 Angry. You might be an A-hole because of Halt. Am I a loser? It could be all of those things, lonely. I mean, that is for just adults too. It is for adults, too. Hungry, angry, lonely, tired. Halt.
Starting point is 00:28:11 My therapist even says it to me. So it's a check-in. It's a way to evaluate and maybe easily assess why you're behaving the way you are and then you can use the proper tools to fix it. Okay. Right now, I'm not hungry. I'm not angry. Are you lonely?
Starting point is 00:28:32 I'm not lonely, but I'm a little tired. So that's why I'm going to make today a nightmare for all of you. You seem fine right now. Are you sure you don't want some candy? You want some nighttime candy. No, no, not now. No, I need daytime candy, baby. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:28:46 If anybody has any thoughts on that, let me know because I wonder if other parents use it. No, no. The bottle says. Have your nighttime syrup. Mom, this tastes bitter. It burns. Good night. That's your nighttime syrup.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Whiskey. No, no. I know adults take melatonin, but this is a bottle made for kids. So it says it's for kids and it tastes like it's for kids. And I just want to see. You, mom, your way. Trying. Doing my best.
Starting point is 00:29:16 So these are all Disney songs just played on the guitar. See if we can name them. I'm going to play two. Write your answer down. Here we go. Number one. What do you need here? You need the movie?

Starting point is 00:30:05 I don't know this song. Did we get it? You want to build a snowman. Nice, Andy. Okay. Have you seen Frozen Bones? No. I thought Let It Go was the only song in that.

Starting point is 00:32:34 That's what I have. All the colors of the wind? Yeah. Dang. Good job. Amy? Pocahontas. Muna.

Starting point is 00:33:43 Bobby Bones Hey, it's Ryan Hurd. I just want to say congratulations to Bobby and Caitlin on getting married. So excited for you guys. If there's one little piece of advice that I could give to you
Starting point is 00:33:53 is to soak up every single moment and try to spend as much time at your wedding together. Just enjoying the moment and enjoying each other because that is the only time you get to do it. So excited for you guys.
Starting point is 00:34:06 Congratulations again and I can't wait to see what the world has in store for you. Here's Amy's pile of stories. So I got a shout out to this woman being called Supermom because she finished the bar exam while in labor and delivery. She was taking the Illinois State Bar exam when she went into labor. Her water broke. She was having contractions, but she wrapped up the first part of her test. Then she went to the hospital and delivered
Starting point is 00:34:33 her son. And then after it, she finished it. So it's pretty amazing. And I would think that this is going to help get her some clients when she could just start her own practice right away and be like, I'm the woman that still takes a bar exam even when I'm in labor. So Chris Stapleton says that an artist cannot call themselves a country outlaw, that it has to be bestowed upon them. Yeah, because outlaw country is kind of a genre, a self-assigned genre of artists. And people have called Chris Stapleton outlaw. I was like, hey, I don't think I am. Other people have to call me that.
Starting point is 00:35:08 Yeah, he said that Marty Stewart told him a real outlaw doesn't need a sign that says, he is one. Yeah, I kind of roll my eyes and people say they're either quote, real country or outlaw country. I'm like, you don't have to say that about yourself. We'll take care of that. Yeah, yeah, let people say what they think about you. So do you want to know some artists that are currently in the outlaw category?
Starting point is 00:35:28 I would say Casey Musgraves, oddly. Yeah, she's on there. Tyler Childers. I put him in there. That's about it. What about Eric Church? Nah.
Starting point is 00:35:44 Sturgle Simpson. Yeah, Sturgel. I'd say Eric's good. Eric's... Eric's mainstream. Is he a mainstream outlaw? Yeah, Eric's weird. Eric's...
Starting point is 00:35:53 Because he's for sure mainstream and Chase's radio, but does it in a weird way. Yeah. Yeah. Well, give me one more. Brandy Clark. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:36:02 All right, what else you got? Anything else? I made me. That's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With producer Eddie. Tell me something good.
Starting point is 00:36:16 videos on social media that I love to watch are when cops go into neighborhoods and start playing basketball or football with kids. Pretty cool. So in Delaware, there was a state trooper that was playing with a, playing basketball with a bunch of boys, but there's a nine-year-old kid named Rakir Allen, and he just has a great personality. And every time the cop would make a three-pointer, he would say, that's Curry, dude, that's Curry. And so the cops said, your energy is so great. You have such a positive attitude. He went back, bought him a pair of sneakers, and he were shoes that were designed by Steph Curry. So here you're...
Starting point is 00:36:46 You go. Since you say I'm Curry, here's some shoes that are designed by Steph Curry. That's awesome. Yeah, it's awesome. I love those videos, too. They, like, really make me feel good. Do you ever look and see if they take their guns off before they start shooting? I don't.
Starting point is 00:36:57 I know. I know. It's a real question. I don't know. Me either. And you don't just want to take your gun off because what if something happens and you need it, but is it okay to play basketball with a gun? It's a great question, most.
Starting point is 00:37:08 I don't know. Next time I'll watch one of those videos. I'm going to look for that. Yeah, pinch in and zoom and see if he's wearing a gun. All right. That's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. The Bobby Bone Show is proud to be supported by Grand Canyon University,

Starting point is 00:47:52 On the Bobby Bones show now. Michael Rooker. We were talking about before you came on what we all knew you from because you've been in so many things.

People recognize me a lot from either Guardians of the Galaxy, the Walking Dead is a lot. I get recognized from Walking Dead a lot.
Starting point is 00:48:40 And Days of Thunder still depends on where I'm at for Days of Thunder. I did a bunch of Days of Thunder commercials last year, and so people recognize me from that. from NASCAR and David Thunder. You're like the ultimate apocalypse guy. Like if crap's going down, it seems like they need you for their shows or movies. So is that a role that you were early on? Or like, that's what I'm going to be? Or did you kind of get put there based on your acting skills?
Starting point is 00:49:06 I was probably put there based on my own skills. Because if there's crap going down, you better come to my house. But you better be nice about it. What was your background in acting? I'm sure it wasn't learning how to be a villain in a lot of great, great movies. Like, what was the goal as you? a kid? You know what? I wasn't an actor when I was a kid. I didn't get into acting until I was in my mid-20s, and I went to a school called the Goodman School of Drama. It was a very well-known,
Starting point is 00:49:38 a very respected theater school, and I got most of my training, all of my training there. From there, I went on to theater. I did theater for about four or five years, and I got into TV and eventually into the film business more than television. Well, in real life, I'd like to have you by my side. You're also a black belt and karate, right? I did I-I-Gyto and judo mainly, but I study karate now. I do a form called Kilcution. It's kind of a full-on contact, full-contact stuff.
Starting point is 00:50:15 But not, I tell people all the time that it's full-contact. contact, but it's not full power. You know, if you do full power every time you go train, you wouldn't be training a lot. You'd be too sore to do anything, anything else. But we have a good time in the dojo still, yeah. You ever have to whoop anybody's butt in real life? I grew up biting pretty much in my whole neighborhood. Nice.
Starting point is 00:50:38 I tried my best to whip their butt. Sometimes I got my butt with it. Michael Rooker. It's really been great talking to you, such a fan of your work.

Starting point is 00:54:55 Maybe NBA 2K with Bobby And he looks out the window He's like, man, my neighbor's house is on fire Then he runs outside And he starts banging on the door And it's a grandma and grandkids that live there And he runs inside upstairs, grabs the 18-month-old twins
Starting point is 00:55:09 And gets granny out all A-O-K Dang, say babies and an old person Wow Yeah And they said it was three to five minutes later and went up fully in flames. What time of day was this? I was in the middle of the night.
Starting point is 00:55:20 He was playing video games. Of course. That's why we should play all night long. Exactly. As Lionel Richie said, All night long, all night. That's what it's all about right there.
Starting point is 00:55:31 That was Tell Me Something Good. On the phone right now is Jessica in Massachusetts. Jessica, welcome to the Bobby Bone show. Okay, so I need some advice. My son will be four. his dad is married, moved 1,500 miles away, haven't heard from him in almost two years. Should I contact the wife? Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:55:57 For what? Just, yeah, to let, I mean, my instinct is to say no, first of all. I think if you were going to contact anyone, it's the dad again. But in your mind, for what? To have that relationship. So my son has a relationship with his father, because my father passed away, so I don't. have that relationship with my father, but I want him to have his relationship with his father. And he used to call every birthday, every holiday, and now he doesn't contact us.
Starting point is 00:56:30 I haven't heard from him in almost two years. Okay, well, it's an interesting question, and it's how do you get your son's dad back in his life, even though he's so far away in his county disappeared? I would understand reaching out to his wife once. Now, I'm going to kind of tell you a story about me. You know, I didn't have a dad growing up forever. You know, my dad left when I was five or six years old, didn't know him. He pieced out.
Starting point is 00:56:54 Sometimes he'd be back around. Once I was about 11 or 12, I decided I never needed to know. I was so angry and resentful. I was, to me, he was a villain until I was 34, 35 years old when I sought out to go and meet him again. Now, what I learned from that experience with him was he regretted the decision that he made whenever he left, but was so embarrassed about kind of the fallout from it, the negativity that had come from it, that he just didn't want to address it anymore. And I kind of understood that, at least where he was coming from. He was like, I screwed up and I was so embarrassed of it that I just kind of disappeared. And it was easier for me to stay away than it was to come back in.
Starting point is 00:57:37 So, you know, I wonder with your son's father moving that far away, I wonder if he is so disappointed in that part of his decision that he's gone, you know what, it's easier for me just to cut this out of my life, which would mean he would need you to at least make an effort to go, hey, we want you. I'm going to tell you one more time. We want you to be a part of this kid's life. And when you first asked, my instinct was to say no. However, I just don't think you can do wrong by encouraging someone to love your kid, especially when that someone is the kid's dad. So my advice to you after telling that story is to reach out to her, reach out to him, give him a good reach out and say, hey, would love you to be a part of his life, just to call
Starting point is 00:58:23 him and make sure they know that you're not angry, that it's only about your son and that's it. and I think that may free him up just a little bit to go, you know, I did mess up. I wish I wouldn't have reacted or treated the situation like this, but there is kind of a rope to grab onto to still have a relationship. Because I do believe that most folks are still like good people and they do want to be parts of their children's lives. So I'm going to say yes. I'm going to say you reach out to her. You tell her the story. Hey, if you could talk to them, talk to them, talk to sense to him.
Starting point is 00:58:56 We'd love to have them in the life. No anger. And I think you may get a little reaction from that, okay? Okay. Okay. That's what I would do. And if it all fails, who cares? At least you tried and you tried doing something for your kid.
Starting point is 00:59:07 It's okay to bomb out and fail if you're trying to do something good for somebody else, especially your own kid. Worst thing that happens is it doesn't work out. And it's already not working out. So the worst thing that happens is whatever you're doing is just going to continue to be done. Best thing is your son has his dad in his life in some capacity. He also has, but he also has another child in the state that we're in. and he does come and visit his other child every six months.
Starting point is 00:59:35 Well, maybe it has something to do with you and his relationship, too. That I don't know. You just need to make it as safe as possible for him to be in his son's life. Okay. Appreciate the call. Good luck with that. I'm really rooting for you here. Thank you, Bobby.
Starting point is 00:59:48 All right. See you, Jessica. Bye. Bye-bye. Let me put on Eddie in Colorado. Eddie, you're on the Bobby Bone show. How you how are going? Pretty good, man.
Starting point is 00:59:57 Yeah, I just wanted to thank you guys for having such an often show all the time. I've been listening to guys for you guys for you. years since back where I lived in Florida, but I'm here in Colorado now and I'm a volunteer firefighter out here and stuff. And it's just awesome to be able to listen to you guys a show in the morning. What's that like as a volunteer firefighter? Are you just a home or work? I'm assuming you have a job, like a normal day job. Yeah. Actually, I'm a state certified home inspector. And then I also work an overnight shift at a hotel. And I'm a firefighter. So, you know, it's, it's a miss, you know, but basically if a page goes out, I go out and call.
Starting point is 01:00:33 We put out a lot of grass fires. You know, we're right off the highway where I'm at, so there's a lot of, you know, accent calls that we go on and stuff like that. You have a wife for a girlfriend? Does she worry about you doing this? I got a fiancé. She doesn't worry too much because her father is actually the captain on our department. So she feels a little bit more safe that I'm there with him, and he's there with me.
Starting point is 01:00:54 So we got each other's back. Would you ever want to be a full-time firefighter? Yeah, it's something I actually looked into. I started doing some EMT training stuff, you know, with my CPR certifications and stuff and AD training and first aid and stuff. So I wouldn't mind getting into it and possibly doing it full time as a career firefighter. You're a pretty big guy? People say so.
Starting point is 01:01:15 I'm 5-8, 180 pounds. I'm not overweight or nothing, but. Hey, that's pretty good. 180 pounds? That's more than I way. Hey, listen, what you do, love it, man. You're doing something? You're volunteering to save folks and save land.
Starting point is 01:01:29 So I think that's commendable. I appreciate you listening and thanks for doing what you do. All right. Thank you guys. All right. There he is. Eddie in Colorado. The Bobby Bone Show is proud to be supported by Grand Canyon University, an affordable,

Starting point is 01:05:03 All right, two situations happened yesterday. Amy, your first. Okay, so I'm at Walgreens checking out. And, well, actually, I was walking by and I saw an employee talking to someone that was like, they were kind of a heated argument, but I didn't know what was happening. By the time I make it over to the cash register, I'm checking out, I start to hear the yelling, it's escalating. The guy is being kicked out of the store for stealing. but he's denying that he stole, but the Walgreens guy is like,
Starting point is 01:05:32 no, no, I saw you take this, you put it in your bag, and he pulls out what it is, is K.Y. Shelley. But I mean, the guy was very tough looking, and he made a comment that, like, he has, I don't know, PTSD from being incarcerated, so it doesn't like to be touched like that
Starting point is 01:05:52 because the guy was escorting him out and pulling him. And so he's like, don't touch me, get off me. I've been incarcerated. You can't touch me that way. It triggers stuff. So then I'm thinking, this guy is about to get triggered and go crazy in Walgreens, and this is it for me. He's going to shoot everybody in the store and we're dead for some KY jelly.
Starting point is 01:06:11 Did you laugh, though, when it was a KY jelly? No, no, no, no, no. I didn't. I had to go back and confirm that that's what it was because I saw that he was holding it. No, I went and looked, the employee went back to family planning and put it up. So I went and I looked at the box and I was like, interesting. You went back to see what it was. Well, at Walgreens, they have the tags on the aisle.
Starting point is 01:06:33 Yeah, go ahead. Well, because I had to see what he was so desperate to steal. But then it was crazy because he was so adamant that he did not steal it. He said, I can't believe you're kicking me out right now. This is just like cussing this guy out for kicking him out inappropriately. But he didn't have a receipt and the stuff was in his bag. And the checkout person was like, he didn't check out. But I thought if I was this Walgreens,
Starting point is 01:06:56 guy too. I would be scared of making a big fuss over this and this guy was clearly angry and embarrassed that he might come back and seek revenge in the parking lot later. I was like, just let the guy take the bottle. Amy's like, I'll pay for his pay why. So what happened? How did it end? He left and then he got in a car. He was with somebody and I saw them drive away. But I was like, they're probably going to come back later. Take care of this guy. The person in the car is like, did you get it? You didn't get it. No, Chris, I didn't. But it was scary. It was scary.
Starting point is 01:07:30 I thought for a second that something could, you hear of situations or you see them in TV shows and movies where things go horribly wrong and suddenly you're on the ground with your hand over your head. I was ready to take cover. It was scary. I believe you. Sounds a little dramatic. I believe you. No, I promise. This guy was fierce.
Starting point is 01:07:50 Eddie, you had a situation. This is a great transition because that's how I felt when this was happening. Guys, I was on my way to go pick up the boys. And as soon as I leave my neighborhood, I noticed a car following me, like right from my neighborhood. Every turn I made, they made. I would speed up. They would speed up. I would slow down.
Starting point is 01:08:09 They would slow down. There's a point where there's a lot of traffic. And I was like, all right, let me think. I started looking at my rear view. And like, for sure, this guy's, this guy's following me. And so I try to pick a spot where there's a little bit of space between cars. And I go right through them. I'm like, there's no way he can get them.
Starting point is 01:08:25 There's so much traffic. Guys, he got through him, and he sped up, and he was on me again in less than a minute. So what did you do after all this? Okay, I'm talking about 15 minutes of him following me. It takes me about 20 minutes to go pick up the six of the case. What he looked like, by the way? He was a big guy. Do you have K-Y-J-L-A in his hand?
Starting point is 01:08:40 Possibly? Big guy. Neck tattoo? Bald in a big truck. Okay. Amy, was that him? Oh, no, he was bald neck tattoo, but I don't know about it. I didn't see a neck tattoos.
Starting point is 01:08:51 He had a car. So I'm thinking, like, this is it. I'm like Amy. Like, I got all these scenarios in my head. He's following me. He's going to trap me and he's going to kill me. And so I had to make that decision. I'm going to call the cops and tell him I'm being followed.
Starting point is 01:09:04 Oh, my gosh. Big Sissy Eddie. I mean. I had to. Why are you guys? I was tracking him for a few. He's really being followed now. I would not.
Starting point is 01:09:14 I was guys. And I'm like, in the worst case scenario, I'm going to pick up my kids. He's going to know where my kids are. Maybe he does something to everyone at the school. So what do you call 911? 911. I had to call 911. Wow.
Starting point is 01:09:23 Oh, that's a commitment. Not even 3-1-1? No, no, because this is an emergency. There's someone following me. It should be dangerous. 911 emergency. What's your emergency? Hey, real quick, I don't know how to report this, but I'm just telling you right now, I'm being followed.
Starting point is 01:09:35 And they're, okay, please describe the vehicle, and I described the vehicle. And as soon as I start describing the vehicle, the guy passes me, and I'm like, this is it. He's going to start looking at me and, like, pull over. He's eating chips, drinking a Coke, and he makes it right, and he just turns. And I know, actually, ma'am. Let's just scratch that. He's no longer following. You are such an idiot, dude.
Starting point is 01:10:00 You are such an idiot, sissy dude. I felt stupid. It's now time for riddle me this, where I ask the adults in the room kid riddles. And we'll see how you do. Amy, lunchbox, Eddie, we'll go around. If you miss it, you're out, okay? Amy, you're up first.
