Starting point is 00:02:55 It's the last show of the year. we have not done many of them over the last couple of weeks mostly holidays and me traveling when I'm in another studio it's hard to do this show because also it's not on video so but we are continuing them we're still keeping it at the beginning of the podcast
Starting point is 00:03:10 for now I'm listening to people on Twitter they're saying don't move the post show to after the show because people are still searching for them so that's all I'm going to say you're about to hear today's show Blue Christmas happened I don't know anything you want to say Amy
Starting point is 00:03:25 Final end of the year note Well today was a fun show Like I liked having Steve on 11 We all get to sing together and play games But that won't be on the show They won't be able to hear them sing Oh that's a bummer Because it's music I know
Starting point is 00:03:36 Oh But there will be videos on Instagram Yeah Yeah Eddie and Morgan number two Always put together good clips That are fun to watch back But you can put up
Starting point is 00:03:44 Hey Ramundo You can put in this Christmas songs Because they are public domain Oh yeah And then the song Steve wrote No No because you're like other people
Starting point is 00:03:54 Oh, do you mean the one that he wrote? That he wrote about you. Oh, that one can go up. Uh-huh. And the two Christmas songs can go up. Felice Navida and Have Your Stuff from Merry Little Christmas. Because we don't owe. Is Felice Navidad public domain?
Starting point is 00:04:08 Yeah, why would it not be? Because it was probably in the 60s. It's like happy birthday, I feel like. No, you had to pay for a happy birthday. Yeah, every birthday you got to pay. The only ones you don't pay for the ones. Gosh, so many rules. Only the ones like from Bible days.
Starting point is 00:04:19 Those are the ones they wrote a long time ago. One we don't have to pay for published. Silent night? Yeah. Yeah. We'll put up a couple. We'll put up what we can put up from today's show. Anything, though, for like the end of the year.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Anything like the same? Man, I just feel like... This is the year of blank for you. This is the year of me figuring life out. Because I feel like this weekend I hit two years. Like this day, two years ago today, I was flying my kids from Haiti to Miami. And then tomorrow, we were landing in Nashville two years ago. And I feel like the first year was.
Starting point is 00:04:53 was like a huge blur and I didn't have time to figure it out really. I was just rolling with things. And this is the year that we really, I feel like became a family and the kids felt at home. And so for me on a home front, like it just was really special. And then on a work front, like a lot of things too just were going really well and podcast at a full year. And yeah, I mean, there was just a lot of figuring it all out, making it all work. And so I feel like going into 2020, it should be even better, right? I don't know if you're asking me, but... I don't know. I feel like I need that affirmation, but...
Starting point is 00:05:29 Yeah, that's what it is for me. It was a good year. Like, my kid's the number one part. Mike has pulled up a list of songs that are not in public domain. Felicia Navidale is not in public domain. Yeah, okay. What? It's not in public domain either? Oh. I mean, I feel like it has to be pre-1920s for it.
Starting point is 00:05:48 Is Rudolph in public domain? Even though it's a parody? No. Is it parody? Yeah. You can do a parody? Okay. But like if we did Brett Eldridge, Oh Holy Night, we could put that up.
Starting point is 00:06:02 That's in public domain. That is public domain, correct. How about that? Hallelujah Corr is public domain. Jingle Bells? Yes. Yeah, good. Oh, Holy Night?
Starting point is 00:06:14 Yes. Wow. Look at you guys. Okay. How about? Oh, Little Town of Bethlehem? Correct. You think that's public?
Starting point is 00:06:23 100%. Wow, okay. Well, Mike won't scroll up, let me see the ones that aren't, so I just can't give you the ones that are. Probably like baby, it's cold outside, probably not. Right, blue Christmas you can't. Felice Navida. All I want for Christmas is you.
Starting point is 00:06:39 All that, yeah, I like that. What are your end of year thoughts? Well, I would say end of the year is blank. That's what I asked you. The end of the year is Benu blank. Benu. Benu? Didn't you?
Starting point is 00:06:53 The end of the year. Oh, I don't know. For me, I felt like I answered it. It's the year of me figuring it out. So what has it been for you? This year for me has been, well, mostly it's been all career stuff. But I would say this year has set me up for the biggest year ever next year. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:07:10 I've been working pretty much nonstop. Yeah. But most of it has been setting up 2020. So I think. Personally, professionally. Well, maybe both. He's going to therapy. I'm going to say this.
Starting point is 00:07:24 2019 was the year of growth, both professionally and personally. Good. So I think next year, God willing, I can stay healthy will be my biggest career year unless something,
Starting point is 00:07:38 I mean, you never know what's going to happen. But, yeah, I'm really set up to have some big stuff next year. That's exciting. That's great, man. So, yeah,
Starting point is 00:07:47 that's what I would say, growth. 2019 was the year of growth. Back in therapy, hitting a hard back in work doing a lot of of pre-work idle was a big step up but also the stuff that's going to come after idle is going to be big so that's for that's it for me growth Morgan number two what about you 2019 the year of what oh man I'd probably I'd probably say growth too but I don't know if that's the exact word I'd be looking for it's like the
Starting point is 00:08:17 year that I feel the most me like I've really come into my own I don't know what the word for that is, though. Like, I'm really healthy and really strong. You don't need a word. You can save the whole sentence. 2019 was the year of... Me. I don't know. It was me learning about me.
Starting point is 00:08:35 Like, it was a really big year for my overall mental and physical health. In 2019, is that the drama with your ex-boyfriend? Or was that happened the year before? It happened the end of 2018. So 2019 was really focused on me. You know, I bought my first house. That's true. I really, like, feel like I've grown into.
Starting point is 00:08:54 this show the most this year so a lot of big things happened for me just individually for me this year the year of being a grown-up kind of the year of adulting yeah that's that's right and you had to like mow your yard and like thick stuff all of that
Starting point is 00:09:12 yeah I think it's been a year you and I became really good friends this year like as far as like relationships here on the show I think Morgan number two and I became really good friends in 2019 more so than just like hang out work friends yeah I definitely agree with We found out a lot this year. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:27 And I've traveled with you guys to some places, too, for your raging idiot shows. So, yeah, it's been a fun year. Eddie, 2019, the year of. Mine's easy. Extended family. Yeah, right? I mean, that to me, and I'm kind of along the lines of all you guys because I was listening to Amy. I'm thinking my wife and I were talking today.
Starting point is 00:09:47 It just feels like our 40s is like we're finally figuring stuff out in our marriage, as parents. Like we finally have ways to solve things in our lives. It's just weird because we were just resistant to a bunch of stuff. And we were like, with me, we had problems. I would run away from them. Is she 40? Yeah, we're both 40. Okay.
Starting point is 00:10:07 We would run away from our problem or hide the problems and not deal with them properly. Now we communicate. And now, man, we have two extra kids in our house that's made our family a lot stronger and our bond a lot closer. So just a lot of changes that 2019 was for us in a great. great way. I was talking with Eddie last night. We were texting. And I can say, wait, what you texted me the picture, right? Yeah. And so, it was a picture of his penis. And I was like, yeah, we're, yeah, you two are all right. You guys are good friends. I was like, hey, man,
Starting point is 00:10:40 it was like nine o'clock. It was pretty late last night. I was like, hey man, what are you doing? And he sends a picture of his foster kid climbing a rock wall. And he's like, man, this kid can fly up the wall. And so they were out rock climbing last night. Yeah, there's a rock. Yeah, there's a climbing place by our house and they just they got free passes from one of those coupon books and so we're like you know what the end of the year's coming we should probably use these he loved it they all all the kids loved it was up pretty high oh yeah fearless and he's like four or five years old and he's four yeah i get scared that high yeah i thought it was you bobby goes is that a kid or is that you because it was because the kid was up high yeah yeah that's fun do you do you do that for
Starting point is 00:11:19 like you go there now a lot huh not a lot i've probably been five times ever Like, is that something that you could do, like as a workout daily, like join something like that? Yes, it's a different kind of workout for sure. But yes. It seems fun. I don't like it that much because I don't like heights. I'm a wimp to heights. But you're strapped.
Starting point is 00:11:41 Like, you're not going to fall. Yeah, but you never know. Okay. Because the kids would make it to the top and they would just. All right. And they jump off. Fearless. Not me.
Starting point is 00:11:49 I'm like, I kind of like, okay, here goes. And I just kind of stumbled on the wall. Like plinko. trying to grab. I'm like Plinko trying to grab all the things on the way down. Price is right. Yeah. Yeah, it's hard. It's actually really hard.
Starting point is 00:12:02 But yeah, I've been five or six times. Always the girls that are better than I am. There are even some, Amy, some parts of the walls that aren't attached by rope. And you can free solo whatever. Kind of. Is that ever? You clip. Well, no, there were people just trying it, you know, like they were doing Yosemite.
Starting point is 00:12:16 El Capitan. Are you talking about like the bouldering? I guess. That's different. It kind of goes over your head. So I'll boulder. Bones, you're not strapped on, though. But if you fall off, it's on a mat.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Yeah, but some big guys were falling, you hear, boom. Yeah, but that's not that high. Six feet. Five or six feet. Right. I'll do that bouldering. That's not that bad if it fall. Okay.
Starting point is 00:12:37 I don't mind six feet. I don't like 50 feet. But, yeah, that's a good. 2019 was the year of Extended family. Lunchbox, 2019 was the year of... Oh, man. Spreading my seed. Excuse me?
Starting point is 00:12:49 Yeah, I'm having a second child. I found out this year, and so, I mean... That's what it is. It's really just growing my family and really, I guess, becoming a dad, really because the kid can move a little bit. He can crawl and just like, seeing him grow up and be like, oh, man, I'm starting to get the hang of this. And then, oh, my gosh, I'm having another kid. So the year of spreading my seed and, you know, bringing another kid in this world in a few months. Ramundo, 2019, the year of. Getting engaged and then. You haven't been engaged.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Oh, my gosh. That's still how I define. this year. But you haven't been engaged. The year of maybe talking about engagement? The year of saying you were getting engaged all year long and not. That would be more right on.
Starting point is 00:13:35 And then the other thing is releasing new music. I've never done music before. And I'm not even good at it, but I met a guy who is good at it and so I released two songs and that was totally new for me. Will I do it next year? Probably not because it's just hard for me. Anything that is really hard you're probably not supposed to do.
Starting point is 00:13:51 No, that's not true. That grows you and It's not true, but okay. He says every day. He's preaching completely against what I come in here. If it's hard, don't do it. You weren't meant for that. If it's really hard, it just means you're not supposed to do it. I got a text from our boss.
Starting point is 00:14:10 By the way, during the show, he goes, Ray, period, cracks me, period, up, period. That's good. That's funny. That's awesome. But yeah, that was it. Honestly. It was so crazy because my girl, met her nurse and then her nurse just happened to be married to a guy who's a musician, we got together and what are the chances we write some songs together and they actually
Starting point is 00:14:31 end up doing decent? That was like just a success story in and of itself, which was cool. And I mean, it made him happy. We're actually friends now from it. Who would have thought that I'd ever write a song? And my family, they don't even listen to the show, but they all know me from the vacation song. That's, oh, my mom's like, oh, are you big time now that you wrote a song? I'm like, mom, I've been on the Bobby Bone show for seven years. What are you talking about? Yeah, mom, I'm a big time. I mean, it's crazy that even relatives, they're all like, oh, I heard that song, but they don't say anything about the Bobby Bone Show, but they reference the song, which is nuts. I'll brag on Ray a bit.
Starting point is 00:15:02 He's had to shift his roles a bit to more hands-in-the-show position every day. Like, there is no one that's more dialed into having to be on the show, like, not talking, but playing clips running the... Bobby-Mundo. He got shifted over, and we built our new studio. Because I used to run everything with my hands. and a big change for me was for the first time ever not being a complete control freak with all the buttons and sounds
Starting point is 00:15:26 and the only person that trusted to do it was Ramundo and Ramundo runs everything now. He has to predict really what he thinks you're going to you want. And we have, we've been doing it now for a few months and we definitely have visual face movements that we do to hit clips and winks and nods. But yeah, it's been a big year for Ramundo
Starting point is 00:15:44 from my perspective because he came in and really took a big role on the show that I was doing and made it a lot easier on me. So, are we got a new studio this year? Yeah. Oh, yes. In the middle of year? Hey, Mike D, what about you?
Starting point is 00:15:56 Mike D., our writer, it's the year of what? I think it's the year of love. Like, it was the first time, like, I've had a girlfriend forever, and we've been together a year now, and we said, I love you this year. So, yeah, it's been a big change in my life. The year of a love. Nice. It's good.
Starting point is 00:16:15 That could be next year for bones. What's that? The year of love. 2020. It could be. Because this year was the year of growth And now you're ready For sure. Preparation.
Starting point is 00:16:27 For sure. Preping the table. But he did say growth for like Prepping the biggest year yet. So does that mean you'll be More? A grow? A couple inches? No, but like
Starting point is 00:16:39 When you're busy and traveling and No, no, because I've still been busy And traveling. I plan to travel a little bit less next year. Okay. My goal we have lined up right now and it could fall through. Everything can.
Starting point is 00:16:53 Is that I plan to have my own shows next year. At least one of them. Where I do my traveling, and then we shoot all the shows, and I'm done for a while. But no, I think I'm ready for both. I'm going to spread my seat. I'm going to do my own.
Starting point is 00:17:09 I'm going to do all you guys this combined. Figure it all out. That's my goal for 2020. Has to have all of you guys is. You know my new favorite song? No. The Duolipa song. Have you heard this song?
Starting point is 00:17:19 Ray, can you apply from the beginning? That's my new favorite song right here. Hold on, I copied over that one. Let's play the hook then. All right. Do you know this? Do your kid listen to this one? Dad's in with somebody.

Starting point is 00:17:52 It's the year growth. I know. He grew into like fun music. Play one more time. When you do the drums. I'm not even a big Duolipa fan. But I do like this jam. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:18:14 What you can't see is me doing the drum on that. He's hitting them all too. There you go. That's a good song. I like it. I was like, that's not Coldplay. I know. I know.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Interesting. Okay. I think that's it. It's so hard. Well, they're about to hear the last show of the year. To say goodbye. And you're not going anywhere crazy this year? I don't know yet.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Okay. So no. I don't think so. My plan now is to be here for a week. I have my dog. I got to watch him. I didn't want to board him. And then after the 26th,
Starting point is 00:18:53 I can leave because my assistant will be back in town and she can keep a dog and so then I may go to Austin for a few days and then maybe Tasmania Tasmania I'm kidding

Starting point is 00:25:31 recently. So this couple wants to set up a honeymoon fund and have people who go to their wedding donate to it instead of sending them gifts, like wedding gifts. So you donate to their honeymoon fund, but they want to know if that's weird. Okay. Is it weird to set up a honeymoon fund? I'm going to say no. I mean, if you're going to ask people for something, money's money.
Starting point is 00:25:52 What are you going to do? Use it on a clock or use it on a trip? I say clock because I got Amy a clock for her wedding and then she never. I hate that you bring this up. I'd never say never. I had it up for. For like eight months, she left in her closet. That's not true.
Starting point is 00:26:04 And I had to bust her chops to even get her to take it the clock out of the closet. And so my point is, I would have rather just give her money for a honeymoon. They could have used it rather than had to guilt her to use the gift that I bought her. Okay. So I have no problem with setting up a fund for anything. It's people's choice to give to it or not. Yep.
Starting point is 00:26:20 Any fun period. If Lunchbox wanted to set up a go fund me right now for a new set of underwear. What I donate to it, no. But what I hate if other people did? No, it's up to everybody who they give money to. So I have no problem. Although I probably would give money to the lunchbox new underwear fund. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a good investment.
Starting point is 00:26:40 But I say no, no issue, Amy. I mean, it's not an issue. I think a long time ago, me probably had been like, oh, no, you can't do that. But gosh, you're woke now. I am a little bit. It's just so, like, there is no real normal. It's just whatever, because it seems weird because it's not the norm. but if people start accepting it
Starting point is 00:27:02 is like, who cares? Like I thought one of our friends had a baby shower recently like they had a fund set up like you went to their baby registration and it had onesies and baby stuff all the things but also had you can contribute to our night nurse fund
Starting point is 00:27:14 and at first I was like, whoa, okay yeah they're just asking for money to pay for their night nurse like I didn't know this was a thing but then that's what I decided to give to because I thought it was so cool to me it was weird at first
Starting point is 00:27:25 and they'll use it. It didn't really cool like a clock. Yes, because they're like a clock. Yes. Because they're legit going to use it. They both work and it would help if they got sleep and they're first time parents.
Starting point is 00:27:35 And I was like, this is genius. Can I set up a fun for a money? Money is money. You're going to buy a dishes set with a bunch of cows on it or you're going to buy a night nurse. Right. Like it doesn't. Gordita.
Starting point is 00:27:47 Gordita for the night nurse. I think you're going to start seeing stuff like this more and more where. Yeah, because people are more practical now. Right. They're just like, you know what? Let's just skip all the steps. You're going to buy a much of cup. I'm not going to use like a clock or I'm going to.
Starting point is 00:27:58 It's so not how I went. Lunchbox, how do you feel about the honeymoon fun? If you can't afford to go on a honeymoon, then don't go on a honeymoon. Don't have me pay for your honeymoon. But what about if you can't afford for a new towel set with monogrammed letters, then don't get a new towel set. No, no, that's a present for your house that you're going to use every day. Not everybody gets to go on a honeymoon. Everybody gets to use a shower and use a towel.
Starting point is 00:28:19 So I just think that you're asking people, that's like saying, hey, we can't afford our wedding cake. Would you like to buy our wedding cake? No problem with that. If that's what people want to give money. Get out of here. Do something you can afford. If your honeymoon is, you can drive down the street and stay at the holiday in, that's what you can afford. Don't ask your guests to send you on vacation.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Well, it's definitely an opinion. And a bold one at that. But I feel like money's money. If you can ask for money, what's the difference on what you're going to do with it? You can just ask for a bunch of them and take it all back and get refunds. Cut out the middle, man. Eddie? I think it's a great idea.
Starting point is 00:28:54 They're going to have a straight honeymoon. I used to hate on registries because I thought it was a brand. Eddie that you're like, I want this, I want that. But they're practical. It makes sense. It's a good idea. And you know you're going to get what you ask for. And I get extra stuff. Even if you ask for a clock, you ask for that clock. Exactly. Just using that as example, like offhand.
Starting point is 00:29:10 It's a nice clock. It is, I mean, the clock, I can't. I'm not even talking about it anymore. It was a nice clock. It was from. That's a nice one, man. Do you remember where it was from? Yeah, from your registry and you never used it.
Starting point is 00:29:19 No, but it. You picked it on your registry? Yes, yes, and I used it. It was from pottery barn. That's why I bought it. She put on a registry and I was like, I'm going to get her something nice from her list. It's like one of the most expensive things left. Listen, you know how you get the gun when you're registering and you just get a little like trigger-happy because it's like so fun.
Starting point is 00:29:37 So I bought trigger happy. I was like, I don't need the clock, but this clock looks kind of cool. So I scanned it and it ended up on a registry and it was up in my house for a very long time, but I lived in North Carolina so you never saw it. No, it was in your closet forever. And she made a big ordeal about pulling it out. I've been holding under that hard in my heart. Bones, when you bought the clock, were you like, oh, she's going to love this? Yeah, I was like, not a lot of her friends would really be a good enough friend to spend $80 on her freaking clock.
Starting point is 00:30:02 And I was like, I registered it. And then she gets in it's like, oh, no, I registered it. And it's set in a closet in a box. It's done with this segment. It's the only way I told time for years. Stop it, Amy. Get your Bobby Bones on. Bobby Bones, y'all.
Starting point is 00:30:20 The Bobby Bones show. A lot of listeners are asking for an update on the lunch bar. waiter situation where there was a waiter at a restaurant you go to that was like looking at your private information? Yeah, so he wasn't even our waiter and he went up and looked at our receipt because he wanted to know our names because he's such a huge fan of the show.
Starting point is 00:30:39 And you didn't like that because he wasn't your waiter. Right, and so I felt like that was a violation of my privacy. So then what happened after we talked about it on the show? So then he reached out via Instagram and was like, hey, you know, I'm so sorry. I was just super excited. I'm a huge fan of the show. If you want to come
Starting point is 00:30:55 back in and sit in my section, I'll give you free appetizers. I thought you were a little angrier than you should have been because it was all public information. Correct. I just felt like if he was my waiter, I get it. But going over and taking another waiter's receipt just to find out my name, a little creepy. Is that like doctors, not sharing charts? Yeah, it's like the Hopa VAL.
Starting point is 00:31:16 HIPAA. Yeah. HIPAA, but totally not. Yeah, my waiter should protect my information. Like your name that's on the internet. that anybody can look up at any point. Touche. So anyway, he hits me up via Instagram.
Starting point is 00:31:32 He's like, come in and I'll give you free apps. So I'm like, hey, you know what? For free apps, I can probably bury a hatchet. Do you call appetizers apps, by the way? No. I don't. He said the word via and touchey and apps. Trying to be in.
Starting point is 00:31:47 Okay, go ahead. You don't call them apps? You guys need to get with the time. So I'm young people are calling them. Oh, wow. So I go in and I was like, all right, let's see if this. guy's a man of his word, see if he's going to back out. So the wife and I go, and we
Starting point is 00:31:59 asked to sit in the dude's section, and he hooked us up with apps, and at the end of the meal, he goes, you know what? I'll throw in a dessert. Boom! So you went and sat in his section. Yep. Where he can see all of your info now. He already has it.
Starting point is 00:32:14 So what difference does it make? And he said, he would hook me up. So he gave me free apps. We got two apps and a dessert. Share a dessert. Did you tip on the appetizers than dessert? No, no, no. That wasn't part of the deal. The deal was they were free apps because I wouldn't order the apps otherwise. Did you get a meal? Yeah. Okay. So I tipped on the meal. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:32:35 obviously. And I'm just going to say it, the dude came through. He went above and beyond because he gave me a dessert. So people can buy your privacy is what you're saying. Everybody has a price. And I mean, I figure two apps and a dessert, that's 20 bucks. What can an advertiser, is it? Oh, we had, what do you call the Spinning? DIP. Artichoke spinach dip. Oh, that was a real good one. And?
Starting point is 00:33:00 And we had some mozzarella cheese sticks. Yeah, that's where they're called. Motterella sticks. And then what kind of dessert? We had a brownie with vanilla ice cream with some fudge. And he melted it all up. Oh, it's good. Was it awkward to go to the restaurant and be like, hey, man, we're here for our free stuff.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Yeah, that seems weird. It was a little weird because when we sit down and he's like, hey, he's like, oh, how's it going? I was like, hey man, so we were for real on those apps. Oh, you said that. We were for real on those apps. Did you text him or Instagram, I'm telling him you were coming in? No. How'd you know if he's working?
Starting point is 00:33:34 You just go. I mean, we'd been to the restaurant a couple times. He wasn't there. You just go. It's one of our favorite restaurants. So we go a lot. And it's in the neighborhood. And the fact that he was able to hook me up, he said, yeah, man, I'll take care of you.
Starting point is 00:33:46 So I was like, yeah, so we'd like to order two apps. And we ordered them. And what do you know on the bill? There was no apps. So as a waiter? I mean, I've never waited tables. So I was a hostess, but I mean, I know how restaurants work. But, like, you don't just have free reign to give people free food whenever you want.
Starting point is 00:34:00 It just depends. I've worked in a couple restaurants. Sometimes you could to a point and sometimes you had to ask. So maybe, I don't know, though. If you were, like, throwing him out front street on the radio. Right. Man, that could have got him in trouble. Like two things that could get him in trouble.
Starting point is 00:34:15 Wow. Well, I didn't say his name. Oh. I didn't say what, you know. Yeah, we don't even know the restaurant. He also could have paid for them himself. That's what I'm saying. Like he might be...
Starting point is 00:34:23 And maybe he's, you know, the head waiter, so he's able to do, he has a little bit more pull because he's been there longer. I don't know. Listen, that's for him and his boss to discuss. All I know is I got free apps and a dessert, and I'm living large. I worked at one restaurant where you could have all the free food you wanted. You could eat. Really?
Starting point is 00:34:39 Then I worked at another where you could have nothing for free, and you only got 20% off even at the end of the day. Wow. So every restaurant culture is different. Yeah. And how do you feel about the whole situation now? Oh, now it's buried. Hatchets buried.
Starting point is 00:34:52 We're friends. You know what I mean? We're cool. If he wants to look at my receipt now, go ahead and look away. Morning number two, do you call them apps? Yeah, I do. Yep. That's right.
Starting point is 00:34:59 I'm hip. What about tapas? What? Topas. What about them? Well, that's the appetizer. That's a different thing. That's what they're called.
Starting point is 00:35:07 That's like if we call them taps though. Yeah, we're like, let me go get an ABBA. Yeah, but you call them apps. Morgan number two? Yeah, I do. If I said, hey, we're going to get some appetizers, would you be like, that old fogies using the whole word. No, I just

Starting point is 00:41:54 But giving gifts always gives me a lot of anxiety because I just wanted to be really good. I would rather just hate my gift. Here's what my dog does. And most dogs, I'll get a bone and they run away with it and eat in the other room. I would like to do that with the gift that someone gives me. I just want to get it and run away into the room and open it alone. Oh, okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:10 Not in front of the person that gave it to you? That's how I feel about when I got you for Christmas this year. I probably need you to just open it at home. Why? I just hope you understand it. Oh, great. It's not... Well, our blue Christmas comes up in 45 minutes or so.
Starting point is 00:42:28 Not only you have to fake it when you don't understand it. You can bring it to the house. Okay. By the way, let me say this. Mike D., how much weight have you lost? 120 pounds. So Mike D's lost 120 pounds. And he's done it through all natural ways.
Starting point is 00:42:44 He's just has been eating different running. He's not a veggie vegan. He's not a vegan. He's not a vegan. Crazy. And so it's been an inspiration to a lot of our listeners. And you eat pretty clean year-round, right? Yeah, year-round, never break.
Starting point is 00:42:58 And so, we'll go to dinner sometimes. And this guy, I'll order food. And I eat clean. But I'll get, like, some grilled chicken, maybe a little spinach. And Michael, go, I'll have the all vegetables, please. And just show me up completely. And it's a big pile of vegetables for dinner. And so, but once a year, what Mike D does,
Starting point is 00:43:13 is he does the Christmas purge? Is that what you call it? Yeah, once a year, I allow myself to eat whatever I want. And so when do you do this? Usually like on Christmas or the day after. What are you doing it this year? The day after Christmas. So that's next, that's a week from today.
Starting point is 00:43:26 Friday. Okay, so do you do it all the meals? All the meals. So breakfast, lunch, dinner, is there a snack? All of it. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a snack. Do you know your menu already? I have the menu.
Starting point is 00:43:39 Oh, wow. Okay, for breakfast, on the purge, what are you going to be eating? I'm going to be eating blueberry pancakes with a side of biscuits and gravy. Oh, that sounds good. Or that's a Tuesday for Eddie. Yeah, that was yesterday. Cool, next one. All right, for lunch, Mike D.
Starting point is 00:43:55 For lunch, I'm having homemade three cheese nachos with the side of rice and beans and then a bowl of banana pudding for dessert. Wow. You've already planned all this out. Yeah. This is very down to the detail. Three cheese.
Starting point is 00:44:07 What if you call audible, though? Can you add things to it? Yeah, I'll add some stuff. If my mom makes something else, I'll throw it in. For your snack. My snack will be double chocolate chip cookies. Oh. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:44:19 Why? Eddie has them right now. Yeah, I mean, that's in my house. Eddie's like, I'm like, it's the best after a meal. He's like, they're good right now. And dinner. I'm going with a Pizza Hut cheese stuffed crust pizza and then a pint of Ben and Jerry's
Starting point is 00:44:34 Amerione Dream ice cream. And then to top it all off, a shot of tequila. Wow. What? Living life. Are you excited? I'm really excited. Do you ever do this?
Starting point is 00:44:44 Like last year, did you do it and think, man, I just like to get back on this lifestyle? No. Like, after I do it, I feel like, find the next day, but it's out of my system. Don't think about it. Does it measure your stomach up? It doesn't. Like, I'll wake up the next day and I'm fine. Because your body wants it.
Starting point is 00:44:57 Let us know about this year. I don't know. It's not going to measure your stomach up. Well, Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. And check out Movie Mike's Movie Podcast. I'll talk about it coming up in a little bit. But Movie Mike's Movie Podcast where he talks about, he's a big movie nerd. And it's, now it's paying itself off. Yeah. In a podcast.
Starting point is 00:45:14 In a podcast. That's really good. Okay, so we'll do some stuff. Amy's Piles coming up. Blue Christmas comes up. 45 minutes? Amy's final morning corny of the year happens. Here's Amy's pile of stories. So I got some Christmas movie fun facts for you.
Starting point is 00:45:30 Okay. Right before the holidays. So in Home Alone, the prop department originally created a fake tarantula to put on Daniel Stern's face, but the director made them use a real one. His scream was added in later because otherwise the spider would have bit him. Oh, that's interesting. You know, that series, the movies that made us on Netflix, they do a whole Home Alone one. and it took them forever to find that house.
Starting point is 00:45:53 And then they couldn't shoot inside the house because you have to put cameras and places where there are staircases or walls. So that's the outside of the house, but they had a high school gym of a school that wasn't being used anymore, and they built the whole inside of that house in a gym so they could shoot it from in there. Oh, wow. It's a cool series.
Starting point is 00:46:08 Watch the movies that made us. What else? So in how the Grinch stole Christmas, Jim Carrey had to complete torture endurance training from the CIA to help him get through the daily eight and a half hours of Grinch makeup. I remember when that show was being made, that movie's being made, and him talking about that, how he had to take, I think, weeks of how to endure pain and this the time it takes, because every day it would take eight hours to put that makeup on them.
Starting point is 00:46:33 Eight hours a day. I would sleep in that stuff if I could. Like I do on American Idol, I just go sleep in the makeup and hopefully wake up the next day. But yeah, that's crazy. What else? So Donald Trump only agreed to allow filming in the plaza in exchange for a scene in Home Alone too. So he's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, you can use this, but I need to be. You have to let me in the movie?
Starting point is 00:46:49 You have to let me in the movie. And it's a wonderful life. The whole holiday picture was actually shot in the summer of 1946, and it occasionally got so hot that production literally had to be shut down for a few days. But it's like the most wintry Christmasy movie. And they're like, hmm, that is not going to fly. And then lastly, the original screenplay for Elf was apparently darker and PG-13, which would have been weird because it's such a lot.
Starting point is 00:47:19 Carrie was a guy though. Friendly movie. That's who they were considering for it when they first wrote it. But then like 10 years later they're like, okay, Jim Carrey, he didn't get it. But what's his name, Will Ferrell is? And now it's a more friendly, friendly tone, family friendly tone. And then it went on it. It was called the Blanking Elf.
Starting point is 00:47:36 And they pick it back. No, but I'm glad that they made it a little lighter. Speaking of movies, I was listening to Mike D's podcast. It's called Movie Mike's Movie Podcast. And he was listing the highest paid roles of all. time for a movie. I don't want to ruin, because he counts on the top 10. Somebody made $100 million, by the way, for a single movie? Crazy. You listen to his podcast to find it out. But did you watch Gravity, Amy, that movie, Gravity? Yeah, with Sandra Bullock. She made $40 million from that movie.
Starting point is 00:48:01 Oh, wow. That's a lot. Because a lot of them will take lesser to own some of the movie if it does well. And she was the main character of that movie, not George Clooney. Right, 40 million, Mike, right? It's a good podcast. Check it out. Mike Dee does, uh, he, that's his main story is the 10 movies in the highest roles of all time, paying roles. And then reviews that Shia La movie and but movie mics movie podcast if you're looking for a new podcast and it's on like 35 minutes so um have you listened to it yet i haven't listened to yet it's good you'll like i will over the holidays what else you got amy so just heads up over the holidays if any family arguments bust out and you happen to have the amazon Alexa you can actually there's a new feature where you can
Starting point is 00:48:39 tell it to change the subject and it'll throw out a new topic for your family to discuss so if you're fighting about presents like i don't like that present you say don't don't say her name i know like change the subject. Now you will talk about politics. Oh, even better. No, no, no, no, no. Change the subject. Fine. Religion.
Starting point is 00:48:57 No, no, no. Change the subject. I don't think that she's going to suggest things that are controversial. She'll probably give you something like, you know, I mean, not even your favorite Christmas movie because that can get controversial, but maybe she'll give topics that you don't argue about.
Starting point is 00:49:10 What's funny is that we all know each other's humor so much because we sit around all the time. Do the show, Amy and I hang out, or even Eddie and I travel a lot together. but Ramundo, here's everything that we do. If you can get Ramundo to laugh during a segment, you know you've done something funny because as we were throwing out the new topics,
Starting point is 00:49:26 Ramundo starts laughing in the glass room. I look at you sometimes. When you crack, I'm like, that must have been funny. It definitely was, yeah. Agreed. Thank you. Thank you, Raymond. All right, what else, Amy?
Starting point is 00:49:35 I'm Amy. That's my pile. There you go. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With Bobby. Tell me something good. I got gave away $12,000 in Christmas toys. starting at the low-income complex where he once lived.
Starting point is 00:49:53 The act of generosity took place at the Harris Gardens Apartments in Harrisonburg, Virginia, all thanks to a former resident of the low-income apartment complex. Adam Armstrong stopped by recently and said he wanted to help give the kids who live there at Christmas to remember since he lived at that same place himself before succeeding in business. Sarah Lewis Weeks, who manages the complex that you couldn't believe it at first, quote, the guy shows up in my office. He says, like to come by Saturday to give out some presents. She's like, wait, is this for real?
Starting point is 00:50:21 He was true to his word. He showed up to distribute this huge hall of new toys from the back of a moving truck while wearing a Santa hat. In total, he delivered 1,327 games, stuffed animals, and toys, as well as 100 bicycles to the complex. Wow.
Starting point is 00:50:37 Pretty cool, huh? Wow, yeah. He said the kids were so innocent and sweet. They'd say, thank you. Someone would be shy or reluctant, and he was very happy he was able to do that. So, there you go. Merry Christmas from this guy.
Starting point is 00:50:49 And us too. Yeah. It's free to give those away. Yeah, yeah. That's what it's all about right there. That was tell me something good. Folks, it's your buddy and mine. Mr. Bobby bones.
Starting point is 00:51:08 It's almost time for our blue Christmas Santa giveaway. I guess that's not a giveaway. We just, we drew a name and that person you have to get a gift for. And the thing is it had to be blue. That's it. It can be blue. It doesn't matter what to. Easy as pie.
Starting point is 00:51:24 Everybody has their gifts. Yep. Ramundo? Yeah. You want yours now or you want it in a minute? I mean, if you want to bring it, let's do it. I'll do it. We may want to close the whole bit with this one.
Starting point is 00:51:38 What? Dude, it was tough sleeping last night. I'll tell you that. Because you knew what Santa Bones was going to bring you? I knew it was going to be a good one, but I'm not putting the hopes that high. I mean, it's a gift-giving thing. Like, what are you going to bring me? The world?
Starting point is 00:51:52 I mean... Exactly. It's all in a box. It's an awesome thing that we do, and I'm excited for it. Amy, who did you have? Scoop Steve. So you got Steve a gift, our new producer. Which you don't, he only been here for like a month or so.
Starting point is 00:52:03 Yes. It's tough. But having the theme really helps because it gives you options of things and got him a little package. Goodies, I think he'll like. Okay. Blue Christmas and Raymondo is giving me a gift. You! Could you sleep last night?
Starting point is 00:52:20 Couldn't sleep last night! Yeah, yeah, yeah, y'all got each other. We'll do that coming up just a second. Now the, what, Amy? Oh, I'm trying to think who got me. I think it's Eddie. Yeah, I got you. Okay, cool.
Starting point is 00:52:30 The final Christmas joke is right now. Final Amy, Morning Corny Christmas edition. This one you can maybe tell when you're sitting around the Christmas tree. Okay. I'm into that. All right, here we go. The Morning Corny. Why are Christmas trees so bad at knitting?
Starting point is 00:52:49 Why are Christmas trees so bad at knitting? Because they always drop their needles. That's pretty funny. That's pretty funny. We close out with that way. That's the last morning, corny, Christmas style. That was the morning corny. All right, we're a few minutes away from getting started with our Blue Christmas, which is we had to get everybody something that was blue.
Starting point is 00:53:13 I'll say this, though, there's like a black market Christmas exchange happening behind the scenes where people buy gifts for other people that they weren't inside of Blue Christmas. Like, it's a secret gift exchange and people are like, okay, don't tell anybody. Like, Mike, did you open your gift for me? So I got Mike D It takes a while to make But I got Mike D Because he has a new podcast It just started
Starting point is 00:53:35 It called Movie Mike's movie podcast And if you shoot a visual He doesn't have a sign So I had this big sign made At a steel It says movie Mike's movie With his logo Yeah
Starting point is 00:53:45 And it wasn't part of the gift exchange And it wasn't blue So I'd be like Hey man Come here So I gave him that And I'll say this Morgan number two
Starting point is 00:53:54 I'm like I have so many shoes But they got me slides Both of them Which is the best shoe Oh yeah that's awesome So they secretly got me slides for gifts. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:54:03 It's a secret. You shouldn't tell everyone. Yeah, there are no secrets in this room. But there's definitely a black market gift exchange happening here. Who needs a kidney? I'll take one. So over the next 45, 50 minutes or so, we will be exchanging our blue Christmas gifts. Also, our friend Steve Mokler is here to play music for the next hour.
Starting point is 00:54:26 And he's here right now. There he is. Morning, Steve. How are you, bud? Good morning, man. I'm doing great. How are you? Hey, I saw on your Instagram you have another baby. That's right, man. We announced yesterday. Yeah, I knew already.

All right. Whatever you want to call it, it's all the same. If you went to Kansas State, and if you saw someone with a KU flag on their car, you would pull over and help them that a flat tire.
Starting point is 01:04:26 This is true. You don't pull over for an enemy. But it's still a really strong rivalry. Like, it's really intense. It's a great rivalry. Love that. Rivalry. Okay.

Starting point is 01:04:45 Earlier, I don't know if you have this planned or not. Were you guys playing Feliz Navidon here? Yeah, yeah, we were. I asked him if he knew it. And he's like, I figured this out. Do you, you don't play the whole thing, but do you know it? I mean, I didn't know it. And I was singing dog first.

You can control the temperature up to 80 minutes, so if you want to sit there and relax on the porch, you can keep it at a certain degree, play some music from it.

Starting point is 01:22:11 That's AMU. APUS. Dot APUS. We have three more gifts in the Blue Christmas Gift Exchange. We'll do that coming up in the next five minutes or so. I was a home last night. I was reading about this drug that they're developing that they say if you take, it can give you motivation.
Starting point is 01:22:44 Oh, okay. Because it's all a chemical in the brain. And if you think any of the drugs that we're taking that mess with how we feel, that's just chemicals. They're just untrapping parts of our brains that are releasing chemicals. And so... What's the difference between that and, like, Adderall? Well, I'm going to tell you, so the idea is have the drug get dopamine,
Starting point is 01:23:01 which is the fun, warm, fuzzy feelings that you get. Like dopamine's like the, ooh. And it will inspire people to be more productive. So would you take a pill to be more productive? I guess I would try it, but I know how I felt when I took ADD meds. And yeah, in the beginning, it's all fun. And you're like, feel amazing. and productive and awesome and you're like, who am I?
Starting point is 01:23:24 But then you start to lose some of yourself. Is that what alcohol's like? You're not productive. No, no, but what I'm saying is you feel good. You're like, oh, this is great. And then all of a sudden you hit the bad point where you're like, who am I? Yes. Yeah, it's similar.
Starting point is 01:23:38 And then you just feel, you come down off a high and you feel tired. Usually your friends remind you of who you are. They're just like, dude, this is what you did last night. And you're like, I did. But can you imagine how much I could get done if I took a... No, no, you don't need it. You've already got it. What do you mean? I don't need it. Are you kidding?
Starting point is 01:23:54 No, no, whatever chemicals you need to be productive, you have them. Like, you're good. You need a deep. Like, something that takes it off a little bit. That's called we. Right. They already have that. You're right, you're right.
Starting point is 01:24:06 Don't do that. Would you try it? Yes or no? Yes, I would try it. Me too. But I wouldn't stay on it. You don't know. You may be so motivated to take more.
Starting point is 01:24:17 No. Then you can't stop. You're so motivated to take more and more and more and more. You should. Then you just. explode. Yeah. Did your daughter have a picture of a first school uniform up on your Instagram story? Yeah, they were trying them on.
Starting point is 01:24:28 So I took a quick little video because they look so cute. And she's like on Cloud 9 because she dressed up as a school girl for Halloween. Not like a sexy one, but like a normal one. No one thought that. Yeah, no one thought that. It's like the high boots thing with Amy. She was like, I can't let me daughter have high boots because that's not too sexy. And we're like, not if she wears jeans.
Starting point is 01:24:47 Right. Okay, okay, okay. So just a normal school girl. for Halloween because she loves anime. And yeah, now she gets to wear a uniform to school every day, well, starting in January. And she's so pumped. So they got into school?
Starting point is 01:24:59 Yes, they got in. They're good. It was a little back and forth, but basically we're like, can we just give them a chance? What do you mean back and forth? Well, remember I told you I got that email and they're like, we'd love to have them. You know, here's the application.
Starting point is 01:25:12 Well, we thought we'd love to have them. That means sweet. Y'all are going to take them. But I guess, no, it still meant we had to fill out the application and they needed to approve everything. and they didn't think they were equipped, so it didn't get approved. And Ben and I were like, my husband, we were like, excuse me. So we went and met with them face to face yesterday and had a great meeting,
Starting point is 01:25:30 and they're going to give them a chance. We have to kind of be in a special program, but it's fine. We're giving them a chance. If you're new to the show, Amy's kids came from Haiti two years ago, actually. Tomorrow it'll be exactly two years. And so they're still having a bit of trouble with language, English's second language, and there's some school issues there. with the school is they don't know what grade to put them in and they don't want to.
Starting point is 01:25:52 Like at some level, Stasheera is a sixth grade level, which is where she should be. But other subjects, she's at a third grade level, so it makes it tricky. So am I. I.

I think the owner of the whole place, and he goes,
Starting point is 01:49:47 you pick out the ring you want for bay. And he let me pick any ring. And then they overnighted it from like Dubaied. So it's supposed to be here today. From where? From where? From where? Where did you say, yeah.
Starting point is 01:49:58 I heard Dubai. I heard Dubai. Okay, go ahead. So you had a ring sent to you from Dubai? Yeah, because they didn't have the specific one size-wise, but apparently it's coming. And then I just have to choose the next couple weeks when I'm going to do it.

Starting point is 01:50:54 Worry about the proposal. We'll do the finances later. Well, I mean, that was a pimp move. I was like, dude, thank you. That's perfect. And then he said, he'd have the ring. I said, I really want to do it. Christmas, New Year's Eve, keep it kind of open.
