Yesterday we were talking about beautiful people. Just on the outside, though, not the inside, because we don't know about the other thing. Yeah, we didn't know about the other thing. But Hillary, our phone screener, had seen Liam from Miley Towers' boyfriend. Hemsworth.

It was about seven years ago. Me and the family, we took a trip over. I've got family over in Oslo, Norway. And, you know, every six or seven years we go over there. Well, we flew from down here around Mobile where I live, up to Newark International Airport, and then we'd fly out of there to Oslo. Well, we was fixing to board our gate, and all of a sudden I seen what I thought was Jennifer Anderson, and I had to double-check myself.

And I literally walked over there and asked her. I said, are you Jennifer Anderson? And she said, well, by God, I am. And she took a picture with me. The only thing I had for her to autograph was my Stetson hack. So she autographed my Stetson hat. And she was the most amazing person. She talked just like we're talking right now.

No different than any ordinary person. I like how we all think they're the most amazing people because they're nice to us. And you met them for like five minutes. Well, they get the benefit of the doubt because they're really pretty. They're like, oh, beautiful. So kind. They weren't mean to me, so they were the most... That's crazy.

I did that too. We all do that. Yes. Hey, I appreciate that call. Thank you very much. Recognizing people, doing cool things. It's ICU. This woman named Rachel, realized she forgot a cooler holding 100 ounces of her breast milk.

She left on an airplane. She had been stockpiling the milk for four months. Wow. And so they went to Disney World. She forgot it. She got home and she didn't have any, which is a big deal. Then she got a call and he fly to attendants said, hey, I have your breast milk, and he drove it over to her house.

Shout out. That's really cool. Because it's a big deal. Breast milk can be like gold. She'd been saving it for a long time. He didn't have to do that. That's crazy. Absolutely, he didn't have to do that.

That's above and beyond. Jeff No Watney. Okay. He delivered that breast milk. That's ICU. Over to Raymondo with the news now. The Bobby Bones Show. Big Three Stories.

I love girls' messages and everything you guys talk about, and I think you guys are awesome. What kind of messages do you like, I wonder, because I want to do more of whatever you like. I like the, um, what did you do? I guess lunchboxed, just like the funny stories. Like the bonehead story of the day.

Like you like the bonehead story of the day. Yes, I love those. And then I like when you tell, like when it says tell me something good. I like those as well. Okay. I just think everything you guys do is just awesome. Like, I just love listening to it. And I, my boyfriend actually is the one who had listened to you guys first and was like, yeah,

I listen to him every morning. Oh, put a ring on that. Oh, yeah. Marry him. Hey, Raymond, make a note. We need to do more of everything we're already doing. Okay. You got that?

Yep. Okay. Hey, Kayla, seriously, thank you for calling. Thanks for listening. Yeah. Have a great day. See you later. All right, so what happened in your neighborhood?

Okay, so Stevens and I are outside, like, fixing something on his bike or in the front yard. That's her son. And cops, like, come blaring down the street, and they see us, so they stop. and they're like, have y'all seen anybody running by? And I was like, um, no, I haven't. And obviously they're on emissions. They don't have time to chit-chat, but I want details. So I'm like, well, excuse me, what am I, like, what are we supposed to?

And they just spit off. So I was like, okay, well, I have no idea what just happened. But apparently there was somebody running through our neighborhood and the cops were chasing them. I was like, oh, super safe, right? I was super safe. I heard that somebody came and rented out your front yard. Oh, well, no, we were approached to have our front yard rented out for an American Eagle commercial.

Okay, I've been to your house a few times, and your front yard's tiny. Yeah, but they're already using our street no matter what. They already, my street will be shut down for 13 hours, and we won't be able to park on it. There's going to be cones, police officers. They said, you know, you'll still have access to your home, I guess, through the back. But then they went to three different homes on our street and asked if they could use the yard. yard and the porch. And they'll pay you.

Did you say yes? Well, my husband and I are still talking about it because when we first called about it because they left us a note, they said they were going to pay $1,500. So we were like, yeah, bring it, use whatever you want in the front. Like, it's fine. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you need models, American Eagle models? And then they called back and they were like, oh, we just really kind of went over everything

and we think it's going to be $200, which is still great for us, like, having to do nothing. thing, so I think we're still going to do it, but I was like, why the price gap? You went from $1,500 to $200. Probably because everybody said yes. Oh, bummer. We should play hard again. But you better make sure they don't mess with your yard. Yeah, I know, that's my husband's main concern. That's why he's like, oh, for $200, we're kind of like not allowed in our front yard for 13 hours. Well, what if they tear it up? Yeah. Then you got to pay over that to get a fixed. Good point. I don't know. Either way, my street shut down. They do a lot of filming in our neighborhood anyway.

How can they shut a street down without compensating you? we're only getting compensated if we allow our yard to be used, but they shut it down. Stuff for like the TV show Nashville would tape a lot or other music videos. You just have to look out for the cones and the cameras. So what are they looking for then? Because it sounds like they're criminals running all over the place. All the cars are getting robbed.

Why are they shooting all that stuff over there? Listen, our neighbor is very diverse. It's got great visual for filming. And also it's got some camera. criminals. A little bit of crime. A little bit of crime. The latest from Nashville and Hollywood.

Amy's 32nd Skinny. It's Friday. We got movies out, Deadpool 2, which I know a lot of people are excited about, and it has 85% positive on Rotten Tomatoes. That's really good for an R-rated movie. Hey, Mike, it's rated R? Yeah. That's really good for an R-rated R.

Book Club is also out. I don't think that one's rated R, but it's 61% positive. And you also have show dogs, which is no score. So that's probably It's not very good. Trent Harmon has an album out today. You got them all. And here's a little hook from There's a Girl.

Dan and Shea have a new song out today too. Yeah, and so does Brandon Ray. They have new songs out of us. I'm Amy. That's your 30 seconds, skinny. The 5' and Bob show. It's time for the good news. With Amy.

Tell me something good. So thanks to some people who donated caps and gowns, some students won't have to miss graduation ceremonies in Wisconsin. I guess $42 is the price tag for basic cap and gown, and it was forcing some low-income students to completely skip graduation because they couldn't afford it. So some people rallied together, donated caps and gowns, no one has to miss the ceremony. That's something too you wouldn't think of unless that was happening to you. Yeah. Wow, what a good story. So cool.

This story comes to us from Pennsylvania. A 56-year-old man suffered facial burns when he decided to light a cigarette when he was still hooked up to his oxygen tank. It says, do not light fire. He said, I'm going to chance it. Let it, caught himself on fire. Got to get that smoking. You're not good.

Probably why he has that oxygen, though. Because of the smoking? I don't know. Yeah. All right. I'm Lunchbox. That's your Bonehead story of the day. The Bobby Bones show.

Bobby Bones. Matt in Indiana. What's up, bud? Hey, just calling trying to get a quick update on Amy's kids. You know, I listen every day, but I must be missing it. I've got some young kids myself about the same age, and I was just trying to find out, you know, are they excited for summer? Are they doing good in school? Are they making good friends, you know? That's a good question. So Amy has two children.

She adopted them. They've been in the States for three months? Four. Four months? So are they having fun in school? They are. They really enjoy school. They've sort of made some friends, which is really cool. They are loving the weather. It's hot. Like, and they are from Haiti.

And so they are living it up. And they still wear layers. Like, we rode bikes yesterday, and my daughter has onugs in the summer and a sweatshirt and a shirt over that. But she's on her bike, like, living it up. What's another question you had there, Matt? That was it, man. You know what? I just appreciate you guys.

The kids love it every day. Listen to you guys. And, you know, I love that you guys are just. down to earth and just like every normal person in the world. I mean, I think I'm a bit down to earth, but I don't think I'm normal. Well, none of us are normal. You know what I mean, Matt? I think you guys are normal.

I mean, I think you're more normal than what you really think you are. I like that answer. Yeah. Well, hey, dude, where are you living in Indiana? I'm just right by Fort Wayne, Indiana. Oh, I love Fort Wayne. It's the summer there. Did you know that?

Yeah, it's 55 degrees and partly sunny, and we're going to love the day. Oh, wow. It's crazy that your kids came in winter because they lived in a place where I was always summer. Oh, I know. All the time. Seeing the weather change their personalities has been amazing. Like, our daughter a few months ago, if I was like, we need to play outside. We need to do something.

She would give me such attitude and would not want to do anything. And then yesterday she came home after school and started to turn on the TV. And I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, we're going outside to ride their bikes. She goes, okay, turns the TV off. I'm like, what just happened? But it's the hot weather. They love it. Hey, Matt, appreciate you, bud.

Garden. What up? All right, have a good day. I think he said start a garden. Start a garden. Which sounds like an amazing idea. There you go. Bobby Bones.

Bobby Bones show. Eddie brought something up earlier this week. Did he thinks because he wins all the games on the show, did he would like to have the All I Do is Win's song? Yeah. Which has been lunchboxes song for a bunch of years at this point. And so it's like the championship song, you know? That's it.

So I said no. Thank you. You did? I did. I said, I can't just give it to you. You have to compete to win it. All right, now you're talking. So this is the game that Eddie suggested we play.

Go ahead. Yeah, so this is a, it's an all I do is win scream off or sing off. Oh, like he does with a song. Yeah, like he does what he normally does, and then I get to do how I feel like I could do it, which I think I can do it way better than him. And if we think it's better than we award it to you. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. How do you feel about that?

Okay. I mean, it seems fair, I guess. Let's hope the judges vote. I'm going to that, Raymond? Yes. Amy? Yeah. Can I?

Why do you want to be me? You know, you do. Everything I do, you think my mom's hot. You want my song. I mean, you want to be me. Do you think your mom's hot too? I don't understand why you want to be everything I am. All my listeners to like you, like, oh, try to be like me and be cool.

Do you also think your mom's hot? Yeah. We just said he's trying to be you. He said all his listeners. Yeah. I have certain people that like me more than it. Well, Eddie, he hasn't been around a lot longer than you. Yeah, I mean, I've been winning on this show for 15 years.

You've had a good. You've been winning things for about two months and you think you need this song. Well, your mom is so hot that you're talking about. I don't want to be you. You do. Everything I do, you want to do what I do. Look, man, all I want to do is win. That's all I want to do.

I know that's what you want to do. Eddie, let me hear you do this song. You're like the biggest poser on here. Hey, lunchbox, take this out. If I were to give you this song, Eddie, I want to hear what you would do. All right, all right. Do you want to pause it like I do when lunch does it? Do it just the way Lunchbox does it?

Okay, here's Eddie. I want to be like him. Just taking a practice run here. No, no, this is it. This is one shot. Oh, this is a shot. Yeah, you get one shot. Only one chance?

One chance. One opportunity. That's right. Are you going to blow it? I don't know the rest. You ready? Okay. Here is Eddie trying to audition for lunchboxes.

All I do is win. Come on. Come on. Yeah. I stopped on your parade. Boom. Boom. Hold on.

No, no, you didn't get it. Wait, just in case people are confused. That was lunchbox. Yeah, yeah. You didn't even do it. You choked. You got scared. You heard me coming. You were like, I'll froze up. That's pretty good. Lunchbox came in pretty strong. Eddie, you have it. This is your chance. No, that was him. No, that wasn't him. I was ready. But...

Okay, one more time. Let's let him do it at lunch. Let's just see what he's got. Yeah, we need to hear if he can do it. Just sit for a second. He's going to beat you up in the middle of second. Dang. He got fired up. Ready? Yeah. Here we go. Here we go. You sound like such a poser. Oh. You do. You want to be me. It's cool.

A little bit of Rick Flair in there. Oh, I do that. Woo! Oh, yeah. What do you think, Bones? Woo! Look at that. Dude, that felt really good.

You didn't it feel natural, organic? Yes, I understand the feeling. Like you were born to do that? Yes. He looks like an 80-year-old trying to get you. Hey, hey, hey. Yeah, I'm trying to wave his arms like he knows what he's doing. What do you think?

Goodness. I mean, that was awesome, Eddie, but I go, his lunchbox gets to keep his song. You'd say lunchbox. Yes. Raymond? Elby keeps it. He's the OG. Okay.

Eddie, you didn't do quite good enough. Lunchbox keeps the song. Yeah, all right. Sorry about that. All I do is weird, we... Yeah. All right. There he is.

Congratulations on that one. It's time for the good news. With Bobby. Tell me something good. An Oregon State police trooper rescued 10 puppies during a traffic stop that were locked in a trunk without water. Huh?

Yeah. He pulled over this 2008 Ford Fusion. He kept swearing a swerving a little bit. He conducted a consent search and found the puppies locked in the trunk. It was 90 degrees. The owner was cited for animal neglect. The puppies were taken to Jackson

County Animal Services and looks like four of them have already been adopted. Oh, wow. Good. Yeah. That stinks, huh? Yeah. Well, it's good that he pulled that car over and it's good that he found the puppies and arrested the people and they're being adopted. See, there's some good news there.

The latest from Nashville in Hollywood. Amy's 32nd Skinny. It's Friday. We got movies out, Deadpool 2, which I know a lot of people are excited about, and it has 85% positive on Rotten Tomatoes. That's really good for an R-rated movie. Hey, Mike, it's rated R? Yeah.

Yeah, that's really good for an R-rated R. Book Club is also out. I don't think that one's rated R, but it's 61% positive. And you also have show dogs, which is no score. So that's probably means it's not very good. Trent Harmon has an album out today. You Got them All. And here's a little hook from There's a Girl.

Oh, good. My office has been cleaner lately, which I'm very excited about, because my office doubles as the green room, the production room, my office. Hey, there he is. Come on here, bud. What's up, man? Look at this guy.

Have a seat. We're on the air right now. Have a seat. Good to talk to you. Back again. Yeah. It's been a while, though, hasn't it? Look at this guy.

Where do you go, by the way? Because the weird thing about you is, and we know the same people, too. Yeah. But it's, I don't see you. There are no pictures of you walking around streets. Like, do you leave? Now that you mention it, in the past eight or nine months, I don't think I have left the house a whole lot. So, but you're still at the house.

Yeah, I'm at the house. I get out and about, though. I just sort of slip in and slip out kind of under the radar. I'm pretty good at it. You're not an under-the-radar guy. You're a big dude. Well, yeah. Noel, I am kind of big and cumbersome when I come into a maybe coffee shops.

I stand out at coffee shops, I think. Do you go to coffee shops? Yeah, I'll go down to like Frothy Monkey over on 12th South. Is it Frothy Monkey? You'll just hang out at the coffee shop. Come on, Stan. That's why I say I'm in and out usually. What do you tell him your name is when they say name for the cup?

I tell them my name. I feel strange. I'm like honest Abe, I can't lie. Remember I saw him at Starbucks double fisting. smoothie king and Starbucks, I think. I didn't say anything. That's my life's my run.

I hit smoothie king. Yeah. You should have said hello. Oh, no, I was going to bother you because it could, you know, then it's like a whole thing. Well, then she feels bad when people, she goes, hey, I'm Amy for the Bob,

and they're like, who? Yeah. That happens to us a lot. Well, I feel like at coffee shops, people are so into what they're doing at the coffee shop. They're not really like checking out everybody else. So a lot of times are going in there,

and everybody's, they're doing their own thing. They're not filling with me. Except Amy, who's watching every movie. She goes, listen, he had a 16 ounce mango? No, I can't know with the details. That must have been me because smoothie king and coffee shop. Yes, they're right next store to each other.

I just, I didn't, yeah. I mean, it's hard to not notice. He's very tall and beard and the whole thing. Sam Hunt. How are you, by the way? You good? Yeah, I'm doing good. Yeah.

I feel like in the early stages of a new chapter in life after getting married last year, and life's a lot more balanced than it was 12, 18 months ago. What do you mean by balanced? What's happening now? that wasn't happening 12 months ago? I'm at home a lot more. Not on the road nearly as much. I'm not staying up all night writing songs.

You know, I'm not, I'm not, I see what else. It's a little more stable. I don't know. I do things like work in the yard and stuff like that now, which I had not done before. So on and off planes, on and off buses, on and off stages. That was life for, you know, three years. And that slowed down a little bit in the last 12 months.

So I'm taking a deep breath, and it's been nice. You said in an interview, I guess a couple days ago, that you're not writing as many songs. Yeah. That I bet your interest has not shifted away from music, but a little less to music. Yeah, I was so hyper-focused on music for four years that I looked up four years later and it was like a different world around me. And people I was really close to it. I reconnected with it. And I'm like, man, you guys, their life's changed.

People having babies. These people evolving as people, and I feel like I've just been in this routine. It wasn't a rut. I was enjoying it, and it was something I really loved to do, making music. But I don't think that we should be doing anything as consistently as I was doing music. I just think my interest needed to be diversified a little bit, and that's part of that balance coming. I made a minute ago. So that's kind of where I am now.

What's up with all the music that you made? Because it's got to be just sitting somewhere, because I kept here like, yeah, he's been cutting songs. I never heard any of the music. Yeah, so I mean I have like, I probably have 40, 50, 60 songs that I have going at one time. Like the song I put out yesterday was the song I started a while back, because it was a couple of years, maybe year and a half, two years ago. And it was in a batch of songs that were, that I'd started but had not finished. It was in the pile.

And then it sort of stood out. It started illuminating here about three, I don't know, two or three months ago. And I thought, okay, I need to finish this one. This one has some potential. this could be a single. I could put this out before we hit the road with Luke. And I didn't have enough continuity within that batch of songs to like pick out 10 or 12 that would be a good record. I still haven't quite gotten there yet. But that song I felt like was sort of an extension of Montevallo and could be sort of a segue. And I've got another song

that I'm going to put out here in a few weeks that there's another step in the direction towards hopefully what will become something new from me in terms of a record and maybe a new direction or a step forward and evolving as an artist or writer. But so, yeah, I got a bunch of songs just sitting around that aren't necessarily ready to put out. But maybe they'll pop up and start shining like Nowtown's Dead did, you know, just a few months ago. And I'll get inspired and finish them and put them out. So we'll see. Not to be morbid, but imagine if you died, all the songs that would come out.

Like you're like Prince right now? Nobody would know how to organize them because I, in my mind, they're almost full songs. but if someone else were to try to piece them together, they'd have, you know, a line on this phone, a couple lines on an old phone that I cracked or dropped in a pool, and there's one MacBook that I've got the rest of the second verse on. So organization's kind of been a little bit of an obstacle for me. I'll tell you what, here's what I'm going to do for you,

because I like you. Leave it all to me and your will. I'll arrange it. I'm just going to throw a whole pile of technology. You know, I got to ask, because body like your background is, it turns into this mass bigger than even, and I thought it would, and I thought it was going to be a monster.

But there's got to be so much pressure to go, hey, what's the next song? And instead of finding that next song, you just said, I'm a chill. Yeah, well, I worked. I was writing. I was exploring other creative avenues. Like Body Like a Backer was such a specific, it was a taste that I have. And it happens to be a type of song that connects with a lot of people. And so I have to decide, do I want to, man, that was really cool to have a big song like that

and see that many people at a show. We did the sheds last year. That many people singing a song like that. Maybe I should write more songs like Body Like a Back Girl, but I'm not as inspired to write just a whole bunch of those. So I am torn sometimes between writing a song that I know might appeal to more people, but I may not have as much connection to and writing a song that I am very connected to. But maybe a little more art.

I don't know what the word for it would be. A little more artistic, we'll say. And it might not appeal to as many people. So that's a conflict I go through sometimes for sure. You're such a reluctant superstar. That's what I like about you. I was talking about it on the other day, is that you don't chase the things. You just, you kind of hide from the things.

Yeah, yeah. And I don't, that's just my personality. I don't, I follow my gut a lot. I follow my instinct. And if something gives me a funny feeling spiritually or instinctually, I know that that's my cue to avoid it or to maybe shy away from it. And I'm just wired that way, I guess. learned as I've gotten a little older.

My theory is you don't like to be famous. Like you like to create and for a lot of people to hear your creation, but you don't really like the famous part of it. That's a pretty good assessment of my, I guess, mindset about the whole situation. There are some elements of being famous and ways that I could pursue being famous, that I just make that radar go off and say, no, you shouldn't do this. This is, you know, this is just not. the right thing to do.

And so I've been trying to dissect, instead of just blindly just doing things in the entertainment business, because I think it could further my career, I've started to take more of a, put a moral template on it and say, is this the right thing to do or is this not the right thing to do?

And so that steers me away from some things that other people might look at and say, why would you not do this? Look what this could do for your career. But I just, you know, it doesn't give me that feeling like, hey, this is the right thing to be doing at this point in your life.

So I avoid some of those things, and it's hard to explain to some people. So what are you reading? Right now? Yeah, you're talking about learning. Are you reading? Yeah. Yeah. I just started this book.

We've been in Mexico a couple of days shooting a video for Downtown's Dead. So I started this book. So for a minute in college, I was a philosophy major, and then I realized, well, what am I going to do with the philosophy major? But I was really intrigued with it. So I've been reading this book called Will to Power by Nguerner. Nietzsche, I think is his name. His last name, he's a German, like, philosopher,

just existentially contemplating all these things about life. Well, you're in that place, huh? You're really in it. I've always been in that little whirlwind, but I try to, it can make you go crazy if you let yourself get too wrapped up in it. But it intrigues me. I like to think about those things.

Have you read Sapiens? No, I haven't. So Dirk's got me on the book, and it's about, you'd probably like that too. Because I used to read the Nietzsche in college, because I was a big philosophy. guy too. Oh, really? Yeah. I can see that. You're really insightful. No, I'm not insightful, but

I'm so curious about death and that's why I mentioned that earlier, but like what happens and how humans evolve. So I'm, yeah, even, whatever, I can do it. I start talking about with these guys and they check out, so I won't do that with you. No, I only have a few friends that

really give a flip about it that I can really connect to on it, and I try not to bore people with it who aren't interested because it's not for everybody. I'm just wired that way, but we'll have to chat about it sometime. You ever read the cave. Who's that? Where, so.

I feel like I've heard of that one. So these two guys are in a cave and they're looking at the light on the wall and that's the only thing they can see because they're trapped in the cave. And one of the guys gets to go out of the cave and comes back and explains to the other guy what was outside the cave, but he can't comprehend it because all they've ever been able to see their whole life is a light on the wall. And so what it does is compare us to the people in the cave. We only see what's in front of us.

So when someone comes and says they've experienced something that we can't comprehend, we go, oh, that can't be real. But was it real? That's exactly. Those things are the things that are the things. I have obsessed about that kind of stuff. I know. And I never judge it because everybody has their own perspective

to the lens of their experiences. And I try to, I try to, you know, not, you know, just dismiss people who, you know, have different perspectives and ask those big, deep questions that we really will never be able to answer. So not only are we physically alike, it sounds like we're alike. Totally, yeah, physically and mentally, spiritually.

Yeah, it sounds like we're like one, basically. Same. You think about going back to school at all? I thought about it, yeah. Only because my first time around, I didn't take it as seriously as I would have liked to. I realized that's one of the things. It's the last few years. I realized, man, I really didn't pay attention in my history classes, for instance.

Because I'm really, I hear people talk about history, people who are really educated. And one of my co-writers, Josh Osborne, he's a big history buff. And he'll start talking about history. And I'm like, man, I don't know anything. I need to read more. So that's been one of the things that has inspired my reading over the people. couple years. Can you imagine you're in class, right? And you're taking psychology too. I know what you're going to say. In-Walk's freaking Sam Hunt. How much you're looking at that book?

And how much are you instistoring to your friends? Sam Hunt's in my class. You might be a slight distraction to some college students. Well, I was just a big dumb jock in college. I didn't try too hard to look cool, so I would have showed up in my cowboy base and shorts. Correspondence. Nah, that's not as fun. Right? Yeah, that's not as fun. Do you actually want to go to campus and sit down and go to the bookstore? I don't care as much about the experience as much as the education.

Yeah. So I don't know. I've thought about that. I'm like, how could I sort that out? It's not like you're doing. You're reading books. Yeah. I think steering my, I can be in control of what I'm interested in if I'm, you know, do it myself, I guess. Let me ask you about the social media because our Raymond, our producer here, comments on everything you put up. Do we have a list of things? Hold on. Let me read you

I don't have a list of all Raymond's comments because every time you put up a picture, here we go. Let me give you a hard time about it. Here's what are you, there he is. How you feel about this, Ray? Cool. All right, cool.

You put, hey, new song coming out, he writes. It's about time you're back, Michael Jordan. Okay? You put up another image if you're on a motorcycle. He said, hey, man, I DVR the Warriors Rockets game last night if you want to come rewatch it with me later. On a different picture. I got to turn it in my comments.

I might have taken you up on that. He wrote, missed you pimp, swing by the crib sometimes. And there, I have a whole page of these. But I wonder if you ever see anyone like him that posts all the time on your pages. Do you look at the comments ever? I think I've seen, because, you know, I think it steered people who you were, like, connected to through mutual friends. I think it, so I think I've seen, I've seen, I've seen some comments before, yeah. I try not to read comments because, you know, I try to avoid some of them can be hateful.

But, but. His arm. He would like you to come to his house. That's how much he loves me. No, my brother, he comments. I think my brother comments on just about everything. But he's sneakily condescending. So you won't be, most people wouldn't be able to pick it up,

pick up on it. But he's messing with me a lot of times on some of his comments. What does your brother think about this? I don't know. We've never really sat down and had like a serious talk about, like, what in the world's going on here. Like, you know, who would have thought, you know, several years ago? We'd both be, because he lives in Nashville.

And we, we worked together. in some capacities of this whole thing. We've just been holding on and just like let's just keep holding on and we'll analyze this, you know, when we get old. Is he Sam Hunt's brother, though, to a lot of people? And is that a thing? Like, psychologically, that can be a thing.

But that's sort of a product of coming from, I come from a small town. So that started early on. But it doesn't seem to have affected him. I think it made him more aware of making sure he became his own person and he absolutely has done that. Younger or older?

He's younger. Oh, okay. He's, uh, yeah, he's a handful. Man, can you imagine? Sam Leonard's your big brother? He probably comes in handy sometimes. Oh, you think, oh, see, I think of it the other way. Oh.

Oh, you think of it like he's younger. Oh, I was thinking if he's younger, sometimes it may be older, or you think of like, you know, the, and he's involved in your life, but you think of like the manning people. The manning people, yes. The brothers. So, and then there's other famous people. There's like two of them are like really awesome. And then there's like the third.

brother who's like what it? Well, he was older and he hurt himself. Oh, he did? Yeah. Okay, well, I don't know. We've talked about that as being an example of like. Cooper. Cooper. Yeah. Yeah. Where, you know, do they feel okay with that? Are they happy for their sibling success? He ever jealous? No, I don't think so. You jealous of him that he gets to not have to be do interviews and stuff? Oh, yeah. True. That really. That can be a part of it. Yeah, that's a good. Yeah, that's a good point. Um, there are some things about other people's lives that I, you know, maybe envy at times, but I believe in, you know, in fate and divine purpose, so I don't look into that too much.

How's the wife? How's she doing? She's great. She's adapting. I had, well, relatively longer amount of time to adapt. She kind of got thrown in at like half time of the game. So she's been adapting, but she's been really, really supportive, which I tell her every day how much I appreciate it, because it's really.

really been helpful for me. And I know how much I've asked her to put her interest in her life on hold to be a part of this thing that I'm doing that really kind of consumes both of us, but in a good way, for the most part. So walk me through this. You're about to go to bed. What time of night is it? Eight, seven, nine. We're all over the place. So, normal night. Last night we went to bed. So I mentioned we've been in Mexico for a couple of days, so we've been worn out. So we went to bed about 10.30 last night. So you grab a book. You read before you go to bed. A little bit.

Yeah, I read on the plane yesterday coming in. You wake up in the morning, what time? This morning I got up at 5 o'clock. This morning I got up at a normal morning. It is. So typically I'd get up at 7 until I get tired of that, and then I go to 9. So 7 and 9 are my two different. And I'll go back and forth because I changed my mind on how late I want to stay up at night.

Are you OCD? No, I don't think so. I don't think so. But like you wake up and then what? Like I picture them. What do you picture, Amy? Go ahead. Go ahead. Talk it out.

Okay. Waking up, making some coffee, getting the wife, y'all sip a little coffee, and then y'all both go on this like six-mile run, talk the entire time. No, we're not as efficient as that. They come back, mow the yard. Walks and all ladies across the street. Yeah, read the paper. No, I'm all over. She's pretty consistent and she's pretty organized.

I'm all over the place. So she helps bring me back to center a lot of times because I'll start staying up later. It'll be 10, 11, 12, and then I look up a week later and I'm up at 2. I'm like, what am I doing? I got to get in the bed. So she helps remind me that when it's time to go to bed, hey, come getting in bed. Do you all have a Netflix show, y'all binge together? Like that y'all, or do y'all ever do that together?

Have a show. Oh, Netflix is going to be the downfall of me. I didn't have cable or TV at all for three years, and then I discovered Netflix and just, I've been in a desert without water for three years, and I just dove in. So that's where he's been. So, yeah, I have been Netflix. He's like, I've been watching this show. I mean, reading Nietzsche.

Yeah. I try to make an education when I get into the documentaries and the historical things that are on there. You ever watch The Queen? You ever see the show The Crown? Yeah, I really like that show. That was good, right? Yeah. A little slow at the beginning, but the fact that you can search all that stuff out.

Yeah. Like, I researched all the episodes. I love the truth of life stuff. Yeah. I mean, I'm like checking every little nugget to make sure it's all. What about El Chapo? No one watches El Chapo, but you. Okay.

Yeah, I got it. I got big into the cartel thing for a while. But did you watch El Chapo the show where his mouth doesn't move right with the work? It's hard to watch. You can do. I did watch it. Oh, you've watched El Chapo? Yeah.

Thank you. Oh, I'm such a. I'm sorry. I apologize. I apologize. I apologize. It's rough because my wife can't be around that kind of violence at all. So I have to make.

make sure she's not at home and I'll turn it down in the other room. It's like Eddie with his kids. I mean, but that Al Chapo, he's one bad dude. And now he's here in penitentiary up in New York. Yeah, they finally got him. They have to close down the Brooklyn Bridge every time they've taken him to court. God, it's crazy. For fear that someone's going to break him out or he's going to kill someone.

I know. It's nuts. We hear the story every day for Amy. The same El Chapo story ever did. So you're into it, Amy. I'm so into it. It started with Pablo. You watched the Pablo in, right?

Yeah. Obviously. And then I moved. I'm trying to see how. those worlds are going to connect. Like so you got the narcos thing in El Chapo is it's, and eventually the story's got to start coming together. Yeah, maybe there's going to be like a, yeah, they'll do a collaboration.

It'll be like a miracle in full house. It'll be what they get together. They start showing up in the worst way. Well, listen, I'm going to play Downtown's Dead. So tell me about this song. Yeah, so this is a song that, you know, I mentioned that idea I had a while back and kind of started it. It didn't really feel right.

But eventually finished it. But it just, it's a song about, you know, we've been talking about like how my life's changed. There's a song about an era of my life, you know, my 20s when I was a lot more social and I was single for parts of it and living that lifestyle and then sort of looking up and realizing just kind of become a disillusion with the whole lights, camera, action thing of the constant party, you know, and realizing that I need some substance in my life because this is kind of feeling a little empty. So this song came out of that emotion. Are we going to play Downtown's Dead from Sam Hunt? And you say you're putting out a song in a couple weeks. Yeah, well, it may be a month or so, yeah, but I've got it finished.

It's just a matter of... Is that a promise? Because I've heard this before, Sam. I got music coming and never came. No, this is, yeah. I was going to actually put two songs out, but I had a last minute audible on some of the music on this other song. But it's called The other song is called The Other Song. It'll be out here.

I'm saying that right now to make sure I'm out loud to make sure I'm like on it and put the song out. You're committed. Yeah. Well, listen, it's real good to see you. You too, man. I always enjoy spending time with you. I appreciate you guys having me in this morning. Amy, anything you want to say?

Say to Sam. No, all good. Any other mine? Are you picturing him doing anything else? Oh, that wasn't like me picturing. I just was like, his morning, I pictured them like being that couple that's like really awesome and wakes up and works out right away. I'm glad you have a good impression of him. I'm falling short.

I don't know. Good to see you, but this is a good one. Like, it's catchy. First time we heard it, we were already like, down to town's dead. It's sort of in the body like a backroad vein a little bit. Did you, do you regret anything about that song? You talk about putting it out. Is there any part of you that goes, ooh?

I was listening to last night and the drums at the end, I felt like the guitar should have kept playing at the end. You're still thinking about mixes. Yeah. He's still thinking about mixes. Those guitars need to just keep going right there. It's the biggest song of our format in 10 years. What's your favorite line in that song?

Because I think we've talked about ours, like some, we've gone around and talked about like, honey. I think it's a good Yeah Like a Backrope. Yeah, like what's your favorite? Oh, what it is. You have a favorite part? I like the hips like honey.

I got that from a T-shirt. Really? Yeah, I was, I saw it on a T-shirt and I thought that'd be a good line in this Body Like a Backroad song so I can't take credit for it. Well, good to see him, my friend. We'll see you soon.

Yeah, man. And he'll be out. You've been with Luke all year on that big old tour, huh? That XL, Luke Bryan, Sam Hunt Stadium Tour. I don't have a list somewhere. We're hitting it in a couple weeks.

Hold on, hold on. Let me get the proper plug in here. Sandmont hits the road this month as a special guest on Luke Bryan's What Makes You Country XL Tour, Stadium Tour, kicking off May 31st in Toronto and then rolling all with Detroit, Chicago, St. Louis, Denver, a lot of places we're on the year. Pittsburgh. I'm sure they're all sold out anyway, but you're killing it, man.

Thank you, man. I appreciate it because we'll be back in the... We'll talk to you soon. There he is. Goodbye, everyone. Bobby Bones. The Bobby Bones Show. Amy's favorite artist of all time is George Strait. It's his birthday today. Yes, happy birthday.

He is 66 years old. Mm-hmm. And looking good. Okay. What? Okay, mama. Seems like just the other day you were climbing the fence at George Strait's ranch. I know.

I was only nine years old. Now look at me. I'd still climb it. I'd still climb it. I'd still climbing. I don't know. I was visiting his ranch as a kid because my uncle managed it. And, yeah, I did a photo shoot and his front gate.

Like at the gate of the ranch, it's like got his, what are the, called the brand? What do you mean? A photo shoot? You hire people? Oh, no. My dad, like probably a disposable camera, and I wore a George Strait t-shirt like a lameo. Like, where was my dad on that one? Hey, let's at least, let's contain the chill a little bit.

But did you meet George at his ranch? Yes. Oh, you actually met him there. Yes. Yeah, no, my uncle lived on the ranch. And, of course, obviously, he liked to keep his privacy and he respected the fact that he managed George Rage's ranch. So it's not like he had family members all up in there all the time.

But my dad was going to visit him and they invited me and I went. and spent the night at my uncle's place there, and we got up early one morning and went down to the little rope-in area, and George was there roping that morning. That's cool, huh? shook his hand. Yeah. Do you think he was good-looking then?

Yeah, I mean, I just thought he was awesome. Like, I loved his music. I loved George Strait. Like, that's what we listened to. He was my jam. George Strait 66 today. So we're going to do George Strait Blind Karaoke. Oh, man.

That's right. So you don't know what the words are. You'd have to sing along with the song, though. Okay. Oh, man. Lunchbox, would you like to go first? Because you can have your selection of songs. Yeah, yeah.

Give me a song. Which one would you like? Carrying your love with me. Carrying your love with me. All right, I do have that one. Yeah. At number five. Oh, yeah.

You get to choose. I don't know how many of the words he knows. Yeah, I don't know where it starts either. Okay. Here we go. We can't tell them, though. Blind karaoke. I think I can cue you in.

Yes. Can me just give you the first word when it starts? Yeah. Okay, ready? Baby. Don't you worry about what I got. All I care about is getting back. I got this beat up leather bag.

Oh, good. Oh. And all I care about is getting back real soon. Oh, and everything on Phillip Pass. And don't worry about the way I pack. All I care about is getting back real soon. Okay. Because I'm...

Carrying in your love with me. West Virginia down to Tennessee. Oh, you're the only one I want to be. Carrying your love with me. That's pretty good. I feel like I know that song a lot better than I do. I'll say this. You did get leather bag.

Yeah, that was a big one. Philipath? I don't know the street. You did say you were coming back nine times, so that's covered. Yeah. So overall, I would give that a solid six. which is for you. Yeah.

That's really good. That's a D. Eddie. All right. You're up next. So I'm not going to let you know what song you're going to sing because LaunchBock has no clue about it. Yeah, that was nice of you to give him that option.

So you have six songs. Pick a number one through six. Let's go five. One, two, three, four, five. Yeah. Write this down. Oh, I don't know that one. That's a tough one.

Oh, my goodness. It's a tough one. Okay. George Strait, Blind Karaoki. Eddie does not have the words in front of him. Write this down. This is hard. Put you in or no?

No, I got it, I got it. This is hard. Girl, you know I'm a man with a hat, and I'm drinking that. Beer sitting there on the table in the corner. Dude, I have no idea. And I'm just thinking about you and the notepad in front of me.

And this pen with the ink on the paper. So write this down. Take a little sip of the drink I have on my hip. And I know it's all about it. So write this down. I had no idea. Nothing. Did I get one word on the verse?

You said something. You said write this down. And then you said, take a little. You were totally going context, don't they? So the chorus goes, maybe write this down, take a little note. To remind you in case you didn't know. Tell yourself, I love you and I don't want you to go.

Ride this down. Amy crushes it. Oh, my goodness. All right. Amy. Well, of course, though, when it's my turn, I may not because. You have five songs. Blind karaoke, George Strait.

No words in front of you. Pick a number one through five. Four? Four, she says. Okay. You're going to get love without end, amen. Oh, my dear. How do you feel about that one?

I mean, I feel like I love this song and I'm going to be... Okay, go, go, go. Can you cue you in? Yeah, probably. You think that's where it starts? I think it goes twice. Okay, I don't know twice. Oh, shoot.

That's me. That's me. That's a love without end, amen. Yeah, here you. I don't know. Blind karaoke. I don't know. Here we go. I got sent.

The diamond on my eyes. And I would have the fucking words. It doesn't matter. Why? Oh, I got sent home from school with a Shiner on my eyes. Just like I'd rehearsed. Let it die the other one. And I let this know with her.

Tell you a secret. Let me tell you a secret about a father's love. A secret that my daddy said was just between us. You see, daddies don't just love their children. Every now, it's a love without end, amen. It's a love without end, amen. There we got it. It was so hard to, that music, the karaoke's right.

You got a lot of words right at the... You got more words right than these two nocoheads did. So you get points for that, but you're penalized because you're the biggest George Strait thing. I know. That hurts me. Can I do another one? So you're at 6.1. Amy's our winner for family.

It's a winner of money. Just for fun. Yeah? Yeah. What's your favorite George Strait song? Oh, carrying your love. Oh, Ocean for Property. Oh, is it on there?

Happy birthday, George Strait. Amy, take us home. Now she's like, oh, Chris. If you leave me, yeah. If you leave me, I won't let you. Oh, I won't never take you back. There we go. Come on.

Your memory. Girl, your memory. Bones. never haunt me. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I don't love you. Now if you'll buy that. Everybody. Come on, come on.

Here we're your. At birthday, George. Because I got some Oceanfront property in Arizona. Amy only. From my front porch, you can see the sea. Eddie.

Oceanfront property in Arizona. If you'll buy that all. I'll throw the golden game. Get a buzz! Yeah! Oh, yeah! I know you have been on your best.

The Bobby Bones show. It's time for the good news. With lunchbox. Tell me something good. There's a 10-year-old girl in Ohio. She needs a kidney transplant. She goes to an elementary school and she hadn't found a donor, couldn't find anyone. A teacher that's never met the student said,

hmm, that sounds like something I should help out with. Goes and gets tested is a match. Is donating a kidney to the. the student she's never met. So the kid is just saying around school, I'm looking for a kidney? Yeah, the story was just out there and the teacher heard it and was like, you know what, I need to go get tested and is giving away a kidney. What's that process?

Does anyone know? Like, do you go and they tell you what kind of kidney you are? And then you go, because I know that's how blood works. Yeah. I'm interested because so many people do this that it must be okay to do. Right. And now are you okay with just having one kidney left? Yeah.

I don't feel like I use all the one of them anyway, really. I'm just more curious about this. More people are doing it. It kind of gets me curious about how anything works. That's a good story, though. It's very selfless. Thank you, lunch, Rock.

That was Tell Me Something Good. This is a Bobby Bones show. Bobby Bones. This is one of the funnier stories I've heard in a while from inside this little room. Is that someone thought Eddie pickpocketed their wallet? Oh, no. Have you heard this?

No. Crazy. So, but a little bit of it's on you, huh? Oh, yeah, for sure. I was being an idiot. Where were you? We were in Austin, and we're in the hotel lobby, and I had had a few drinks.

It was 3 o'clock in the morning. I was with a buddy of mine. And I see you two couples sitting there, and I had a water burger, a cheeseburger. One of the best cheeseburgers I think exists in this world. And I told my buddy, watch this. I'm going to go mess with these guys. And so I go up there with my cheeseburgers. Have you guys tried water burger before?

And they're like, no. I was like, here, take a bite. And I give them my burger, which I already had like two bites in it. And you were drunk. I'm drunk. And I'm telling it. I'm like, try it. Eat it.

I'm put it right in front of their faces. How obnoxious, by the way. said no. And so I go back to my table and they leave. They go up to their room. 20 minutes later, one of the guys comes back says, hey man, where's my wallet? And I said I was like, what?

What do you mean? Where's your wallet? He said, I had, when I was sitting there and you came up to us with the burger, I had my wallet and then you left and now I don't know where my wallet is. And I was thinking I'm thinking to myself like, if I pickpocketed you with a cheeseburger, I'm a genius. Dude, it's

the look away. The slide of hand with a cheeseburger. That's so funny. So what did you say back to that? I said, I don't know what you're talking about, man. I was really just being, I was being an idiot and messing with you guys with a cheeseburger. Like, I don't know where your wallet is. And I helped him look for it and everything. And he did not believe me.

Oh, my gosh. So what happened? He laughed. He finally said, all right, fine. So he never found his wallet. Never found his wallet. I said, dude, go back to whatever bar you guys were at and, like, look for it. I don't have it.

But come on. How guilty did I look? Oh, for sure. Totally. For sure. A cheeseburger Are you having an accomplice? Maybe, yes, that's my thing.

Maybe you're waving the cheeseburger as, you know, lunchbox is behind him. Oh, my goodness. Pulling his wallet out. That's what they were thinking. Yeah. Our producer ready is apparently a pickpocket. But did you ever commit any crimes as a kid?

No. Like steal. Oh, I stole one time. Yeah, my buddy Dennis at the beach. Most trouble you've ever gotten into in your life. Yeah, it was a, it was a beaded bracelet. Like, you know, just one of those beads, like one of the beach stores, you know. Oh, you got busted?

No. No, I never got busted. I kept it. You still got it? No, I don't have that bracelet anymore. But Dennis, Dennis ended up being a bad dude growing up. Like, he was my bad influence growing up. Yeah?

Yeah. And my parents told me too. They're like, don't hang out with Dennis. He in jail now? Probably. Lunchbox, you ever getting any trouble? Oh, we did a lot of things. We took toilet paper, break into houses.

You'd break into houses. Break in. What do you mean? Well, we went in someone's house across street and stole all their ice cream out of their fridge. And cops bust us. I was 10 years old. and we were on our knees, hands behind our head, cops yelling at us in the main street of the neighborhood cars driving by.

Get out here, get on your knees, get on your knees. Oh, my goodness. And you just wanted ice cream. Yeah, but we were just being funny kids, and there was one kid that was 12. He was the oldest one, and I mean, the cop lit into him. What do you think you're doing, Jackson? You're setting a bad example for these kids right here.

They're 10 years old. They're looking up to you, and you got them going into houses and stealing ice cream. Woo! Let's just say, Jackson. and left something in his pants. Oh, yeah. He was so scared. 12 years old, the cosplay were just chewing on him. It was bad.

Amy, ever get any trouble? I got in trouble for sneaking out at my friend's house. For a boy? We did go meet up with guys. But it was also a summer day, like during the day, but her mom was at work and we were supposed to stay home. And it was her, I mean, it was fine. It was both of our ideas.

But the mom definitely, like, acted like, since I was the guest at her house, that her daughter would have never done it if I, I wasn't spending the night. How old were you? 22. Probably junior high, maybe. You understand the house in junior high? Listen, I don't know.

It was her mom's rules. I didn't really get it. But I just remember us being in so much trouble and her mom called my mom. And I don't think my mom was like that into me being in trouble. But I just remember being mortified because the mom was blaming everything on me. And I just felt like the worst influence ever. But it wasn't your fault.

What was your? Why are you laughing? Here we go. We're not to try to ask you, but then like, you didn't do anything bad. You checked out too many library books. Oh, man. He went over the limit. Bobby, you know the limit's five books.

Stop trying to sneak in six. What else did you do? Well, let me share a little story with you about my bad boy days. What? He broke into the library to do some research. No, the only time. He was in the chemistry lab doing experiments at age six instead of ten. Creating medicine.

Listen. What? I really didn't do. do anything bad as a kid. I couldn't afford to be in trouble. I did things bad as an adult. I got fined a million dollars by the FCC. Yeah, but that wasn't you intentionally doing something bad.

That was an accident. Okay. I got in trouble at work once when I was doing maintenance on the golf course. We had green mowers. We had to drag by in our golf carts. And so we were drag racing with them. And as we're drag racing these golf carts, our boss pulled out and saw us and he fired one of the people on the spot.

Not you? I don't know why he didn't fire me. Probably because that was a great worker. She was a good body. I showed up on time all the time. I would have been the one that got fired. I have always avoided that. Do you miss, do you look back and you're like, I wish I'd have done some more rebellious things?

Kind of, not so much rebellious, because I think, you know, all your little decisions factor into the big decisions. So I'm glad I didn't put myself in situations where I couldn't grow. And, you know, I don't want to go to jail. Oh, my gosh. My friend got arrested from my dad's house because of party I was throwing. Arrested. So I kept myself out of those situations, much like I do now. I keep myself out of bad environments.

But I do wish I had crazier, like, had crazier, like, girl stories or drinking stories a little bit. You don't, do you miss stories like me? Like, when I tell stories about, like, getting in trouble or, like, my friends in high school, we took a golf cart from an apartment complex because they left the key in it, and we drove it on the highway. How cool is that? So fun.

We didn't get in trouble. And we ditched it. We left it. That doesn't make me disappointed about that kind of stuff. Because I'll never look back and go, sure, wish I would have done that. Yeah. Oh, man. Because what if I got in trouble and I had to make.

miss work, then I lost my job. But you don't think like you didn't get it out of your system, so now, like, in the next 10 years you could? I definitely could. You're just going to go in his rampage. I don't know that's the case. I feel like you have more discipline than that. But I think maybe I have a drink sometime in the next few years.

And then let's see what happens after that. The first time ever. We'll see. We'll see how it goes. Well, thanks for sharing your stories, everybody. Yeah. You too. Thank you, man.

Hey, Eddie. Give that guy's wallet back. Yeah. Everybody feeling pretty good? Oh yeah, real good. I have a fun game. So guess the actor voicing these Disney cartoon characters. Okay, cool.

This is fun. So I'll play, and we'll just go around the room here. Amy, you're up first. Okay. Are you familiar with the movie The Lion King? I am. Okay. So Simba was voiced by someone famous.

Here's the clip. I'm going to be King of Fried Rock. My dad just showed me the whole kingdom. And I'm going to rule it all. Who voiced Simba? What? It's easy. It is?

Yeah. McCauley Culkin. That's not right, but you're in the right ballpark. It's Jonathan Taylor Thomas. Okay. From home improvement. Right. Yeah.

Now that, yeah, I totally hear that. Lunchbox. Yep. Who is the Woody and Toy Story? Ready? Here's the clip. Do you actually think you're the Buzz Light Year? Oh, all this time.

thought it was an act. Hey, guys, look! It's the real Buzz Lightyear! All right. That's my boy, Tom Hanks. That is correct. There you go. Lunchbox, one point.

Eddie. Come on. Come on. Who was Sully in Monsters, Inc? Okay, I don't even need the clip. Here. Hey, hey, that's my bed. You're going to get your germs all over it.

Randall's your monster. You think he's going to come through the closet and scare you. Oh, boy, how do I explain this? He's the big blue monster, John Goodman. There it is. That is correct. Yeah. This guy. Okay.

Amy, you don't want to get it. But do I start it to play? Yeah, why not? All right. Who is Dory in Finding Nemo? Ellen. Huh? You got a problem, buddy?

Huh? Huh? Do you? Do you? Do you? Do you? Do you? One piece of me?

Yeah. It is Ellen. That's correct. Nice one, Amy. Lunchbox. Yep. Who is Eudora and Princess and the Frog? Oh.

And here's the clip. And the beautiful princess stooped down. Picked up the slippery creature. Leaned forward, raised him to her lips, and kissed that little frog. Do you know how it is? Oh, man. I wouldn't have known that. Helen Mirren.

No, it's Oprah. Yeah. That sounded nothing like Oprah. How about Oprah's an actress? She's a big actress. All right. Eddie, for the win. All right, here we go.

Who played Kuzko? The Lama in the Emperor's New Groove. Wow. You ever see that? I never saw that one. Is it Kuzko? Cusco? Yeah, here you go.

Don't tell me. We're about to go over a huge waterfowl. Yep. Sharp rocks at the bottom? Most likely. Bring it on. Can you get it? All right, never seen it, but I think I know that voice.

Go ahead? David Spade. Yeah, it's a big... No. No, you lost that. You lost that. Eddie went again. All he does is a song, but all he does is win.

He doesn't get the song, but all he does is win. Well, I mean, right now, he's in his season. Everybody has, like, you know. Is that right? Yeah. Oh, no. I mean, he has kids who watch his cartoons. To be fair, I went down the list and gave lunchbox a softball so it wouldn't complain.

Who Oprah? That was a softball? The Tom Hanks one. The Oprah one was going to be his anyway. That was the most impossible one ever. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's hard. Just so you know. There you go.

Thank you. Mr. Bobby Bowles. Amy, I know we've talked in the past, both of you and I, about that romance and doing romantic gestures really isn't your strong suit. No. And not your husband's either. No. And it works because neither one of you are. Yeah, our expectations are low.

Low. Or they're just normal for years. Yeah, we're like, okay. And maybe because I'm kind of a romantic, like kind of hopeless, like, oh, I just want to do big things. Yeah. But to absolutely be fair, your husband did something that I thought was super romantic when he took your kids to see where he proposed to you? Oh, yeah. Like that was.

I didn't know what you were going to refer to. No, that's it. Okay. That's so good. Yeah, he did. So he took him, gave him a whole tour, showed him where it went down, explained to them what a proposal is, and the exact spot that it happened. Yeah. Do they care?

I mean, he said that our daughter kind of understood, but our son was kind of like, Okay, this is cool. But still, like, it was a, you know, we were in Austin visiting, and it was their first time there. And he was taking him around Austin, showing him all the different points. And I was working, and I didn't know he had done this until later. But that was one of his destination spots where he was like, okay, and now on the map of Austin, we're going to go to the Driscoll Hotel.

But that's a good one, even in the map to feel like that in his heart. Yeah. Like, this is a very important spot. This is where I proposed to your mom. That's a good one. Yeah, pretty cool. That's a good one. I thought you were going to bring up how he got me a new toilet seat.

But was that done in a romantic way? I don't know. I thought it was pretty awesome because I've been asking for it. See, this is the normal part of it. That's how romantic Amy is. It's like, what did you get for Valentine today? Oh, a plunger, but it had a red ribbon. And I'm like, no, no, no.

Went straight to her heart. I know. I forgot he did that at the Driscoll, though. This is a good one. So, wait, the toilet seat thing. Oh, yeah. So, I don't know. When we bought our house,

whatever kind of toilet seat that the people that redid our house went on there, it just like slipped. I don't know. It was broken. And every time you said it on it, it just slid. And I felt like, I'm going to dislocate my hip at some point. It's just awful. And I complain about it a lot. And then one day he was like, hey, I left a surprise for you at the house. And so I'm like, I get home and I'm looking all over the house. And I'm like, where's the surprise? Where's the surprise? I don't know what it is. I don't know what it is. And then I don't know. At some point I've drinking enough water, I have to go pee. And I'm like, oh my gosh,

what is this? It's a new toilet seat. And when you sit on it, it doesn't slide to the left or to the right. My hips feel good. It's amazing. It was so thoughtful. He went to Home Depot, picked it out, and installed it all by the world. That's a row fan.

It's a good story. Amy did not get as excited talking about the place where she was proposed to as she did a freaking toilet seat. What's wrong with you? But that's normal for her. It is. Awful. Well, thank you for sharing that with us.

You're welcome. The Bobby Bones show. Really excited about Monday. Tenil Talens is going to come in. A big fan of Tanale. She's doing a lot of my Nashville shows with me. I guess all my Nashville stand-up comedy shows. So I'm excited to bring in Taniel Talon.

in Brokeback Mountain, they were just to go to completely different people. It wasn't supposed to be Jake Jellenhall or Heath Ledger. The two original people dropped out once they found out about some of the scenes. Why are you doing finger quotes? Some of the scenes. Go ahead. Who are the original people?

Mark Wahlberg and Joaquin Phoenix. So they would have been your brokeback mountain stars. To be fair, every movie doesn't start with whom you see in the movie. I mean, this show wasn't supposed to be me. You know, nobody ever is supposed to be where it ends up. I write about that my new book. Fail until you don't. Do you really?

I do, a lot. I write a lot because we all end up in places where someone else either turned it down or decided it wasn't for them, quit, you know, things like that. So, yeah, what else? Okay, next time you reach for a can of cheese whiz, just know that cheese is not one of the 27 ingredients listed. It's not even an ingredient. Nope. There's 27 things up in that can. They have to spell cheese whiz weird then?

Yeah, it's spelled the Z. C-H-E-Z, W-H-I-Z. Is the whiz real, though? That's the question. Go ahead. Okay. Okay. So this is sort of cool.

British Airways is celebrating tomorrow on the flight that Megan, Markle, and Prince Harry regularly flew while dating. It's departing from London about the time of the royal wedding, headed to Toronto, Canada. And the entire flight, Cluru, was hired specifically for this flight. And they're all named either Megan and Harry, even your pilot. The pilot is Harry. And there's seven flight attendants named Megan. I don't know that I want a pilot. That has been assigned based on just his first name.

No, no, no, he flies for British airways. It's like, guys, today for surgery, you'll have Miss Elizabeth in honor of the queen. Well, how good absurd is she? Doesn't matter. Her name's Elizabeth. Yeah, that's weird. No, it's cool. They already work for the airlines.

They're certified, ready to go. In what? Capacity. This pilot named Harry, what has he done in the past? Yeah, that's cute. It is cute. I'm kind of ready for this royal wedding to be over. Oh.

Like, moving on through. Okay, well, good for you. I'm ready for scandal number one. We won't have to deal with it. Yeah, there haven't been many scandals, huh? That's why they take them off social media. To avoid scandals? They took that Mega Markle off social media quickly.

Oh. Yeah, I was trying to tag her the other day. I couldn't find her. That would be why. Okay, is that it? Yeah, I'm Amy. That's my file. Time for the weekend. Weekend plans, Amy.

I am going to go to Austin. I have a comedy show tonight. So I have some stand-up comedy at the Paramount Theater, which is my favorite venue, period.

Yeah, I'm very excited about this show. Yeah, thanks. And so I'm going to do that. And then I've got to go back to L.A. because I'm going to be on the finale performance episode on Sunday night. So I taped the mentor stuff last night. And then I'm going to be in the crowd on Sunday night. I hope they talked to me.

I'm just sit in there. Really, right? Yeah, that'd be awkward Is that selfish me Just to sit? No, no, I mean, they should talk to you. You're the mentor. I'm not trying to be too much.

I bet they've got to fly back out there to sit in the crowd. Hopefully talk to me. So Sunday night, if you want to watch American Idol, that would be really cool because I'll be mentoring the top three contestants. Lunchbox, what are you doing? Oh, the royal wedding.

Yep, that's true. My wife's really excited about that, so I figure I'll have to watch a few minutes of that. That's the big plans for the weekend. Good point. Baseball, baseball. It's playoffs and a big tournament for junior's baseball team.
