Recognizing people, doing cool things. I see you. A lot of times we don't think of cats as being like super life-saving animals, you know? Well, a family in Long Island lost their home, but the cat woke them up. Peter and Susan are sleeping the bed, two kids sleeping.

The cat, Houdini, comes up and starts clawing at her and jumping over and over again. She's like, I've never seen the cat act like that. So she got up, realized the house was on fire and they were able to get all the kids because Houdini, the cat, saved them. Wow. That's a good name for a cat, too.

A cat saved them. There you go. Houdini, the cat. I see you. That was I see you. Bobby Bones Show. Yeah, I hope Thursday's going good. A guy proposed to his girlfriend with a tattoo.

Tell me what you think about this, okay? He got a tattoo, and it said, will you marry me? And then I had two boxes. Yes or no. And then gave her a marker. And she had to check yes or no. I'm not going to look. You did check one.

A marker or a tattoo gun? I thought it was a marker. It's a tattoo gun. When I saw it, I thought she was marking it. She tattooed. Wow, she got to actually, so this was like a, wow. Like, what if she was, she tattooed yes? What if she was tattooed no?

Yeah. It just had to live with that. That's so awkward. Going in, you know she's saying yes. You're not doing that tattoo unless you know she's saying yes. But don't you know with most proposals they're saying yes? Yes. To be fair.

Yes. I thought it was, you think it's creative or stupid. Amy? Creative, I guess. Ooh, you're borderline. Because I wouldn't do it ever. That's crazy town. Giving somebody else's tattoos.

Creative or stupid? Creative. Lunchbox? Stupid. I mean, that is the dumbest thing you can put on your body besides the girl's name because it's going to be the rest of your life and more than likely you're going to break up. Half of the marriage is into divorce. So that's just dumb.

I think that's old. Hey, yeah. It's creative. It's creative because, I mean, if she checks no, you can just erase the no one and then write again on someone else. You know what I'm saying? You only have to undo that part of the message? The skin starts to get really irritated from her. There's like a red check that's erased.

It's like when you erase paper. I think it's good because if it means something to her and two, it's different. In the land of everybody proposing the same way. You're right. I like it. So that that was pretty romantic. And she did say yes and they're going to get married. I wish you tattoo the wedding rings on each other.

Oh, yeah. Just tattoo everything from now on. Yeah, yeah. All right. Show. Welcome to Thetton. Thursday and it's about positivity right now. Tell me something good. It's always about bringing some good news to the show.

Tell me something good. Kind of on a kidney kick right now because I'm fascinated at people who donate kidneys. Fascinated with it. Like what a selfless thing to do. Kids know teachers there to help them. But this Iowa teacher was like, I got you. Nancy Bluer is four-year-old Camden's preschool teacher. And the little boy said something about his dad being on dialysis. She was like, let me see. What? Huh? She went and got tested and she's done anything to the kid's dad. Wow. How about that?

Awesome. Wow. I just told you something good. Drop the paper. Yeah, you did. Amy, you're up. Well, shout out to Nurse Stephanie T. Who is making little tiny superhero capes for babies in the NICU unit.

She is a nurse there, so she sees tons of babies in and out. And she said the little capes that she makes represents how strong the babies are and what they fight through. They are little superheroes. So she makes them and surprises the families. So they come in to check on their babies. in the little Niku unit, and they see their little baby as a tiny cape. That's awesome. Yeah.

That's awesome. Lunchbox. Katie Murphy is 14 years old. She's in eighth grade, and they're learning all about strokes in her science class. And she's like, man, this is never going to be in my life. Why am I doing this? Teacher puts on a video, so she watches the video. A week later, she's at her house, and her mom's having a stroke.

And she goes, I saw this in science class. Oh, my goodness. Calls 911 saves her mom's life. Wow. So what did you learn there? Pay attention in science class. Did you pay it you? No.

Science was my least favorite subject. Yeah, yeah, same. That's a good story. I saw that too. I thought it was crazy. Thank you. I hope you liked that. I hope you do something positive today for somebody.

Did you know in North Dakota it's illegal to shop on Sunday morning? I had no idea. I had no idea anywhere prohibited you from shopping. I mean, alcohol on Sundays, but. And that's in some states. In Arkansas, where I grew up, you could not buy alcohol on Sunday. Right, but not just normal everyday shopping? I don't even know now if you can buy alcohol on Sunday in Arkansas.

Don't know. But you couldn't growing up. Yeah, there's still some areas where. And for me, I just, I never bought alcohol. I bought alcohol for, like, other people. But I'm not an alcohol buyer, so that wouldn't even pop into my head. The shopping thing, I shop on Sunday sometimes. So the reason I know this, now they're trying to change the law to allow people to,

how is this even a thing? Like, yes, the mall used to be closed on Sunday. Remember that? Yeah. I was like, yeah, I can't go to the mall. It's closed Sunday. Wow. Now it's crazy.

Like, to me, the fact that check. Chick-fil-A's clothes on Sunday still shakes me. I'm like, what? I know. It is crazy, but then I'm like, you know what? Solid dedication. Like, they're dedicated. Do you know how much of money they could probably make if they just open up on a Sunday? Yeah, that's my only day. I really want to go. Of course. That's when I show up and I'm like, hello? Can I get a sweet tea? Oh, the lights aren't on the menu. Dang it. You're like in the drive-thair and you're like, nobody's answering me. I guess I'll go to Arby's. That's pretty much every Sunday at Chick-fil-A for me.

But the legislators in North Dakota are like, we have to strike this. So they're working on it now. But you can't Sunday morning shop in North Dakota. But can you Sunday afternoon shop? I think so. I think there's like afternoon you can actually go in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I thought that was interesting, though, that you couldn't do that. Hang it out with a Bobby Bone Show.

Bobby Bone Show. Bonehead. Story up the day. This story comes with us from Fort Worth, Texas. A man went in to get some lunch, comes back out, and his car has been broken into. Someone stole his laptop and his bag. And he's like, man, I'm never going to find it. A couple hours left.

later he gets a text, hey, what's the password to your computer? Oh, you got to be kidding me. You got to be kidding me. Because his business card was in the bag, the woman that stole it, texted him, and wanted... They got to be kidding me. Okay, so how does this end? So then they tracked the phone number, and they arrest her. She texted him.

Like, he's going to reply back, oh, yeah, the password's sunset on rainy day. Capital S, capital R. Oh, man, I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day. Wow. The Bobby Bones show. This is the Bobby Bones show. Eddie, why do you always think everything's about you being Mexican?

What do you mean, dude? What did I say this time? Eddie's at the, I read the store and the fish guy came up? Oh, yeah. Why don't you think he would do that to a white person? Because he's straight up ass him. He's like, you Hispanic? I was like, uh, yeah, maybe.

And he's like, dude, I got some fish. You want to buy some? I was this in the parking lot. And I was like, fish. Like, what do you mean? He's like, I got some in the back of the truck. I catch fish every single day. and I usually sell it to Mexican people.

I'm like, straight up. We'll eat anything. I get it. I understand that. Wait, what? Yeah, he says he sells him a dollar of fish. Wait a minute. Was he white?

Yeah, he's a white dude. Real nice dude. Like really nice guy. He's like, no, no, I just usually that's my market. Like Mexican people, I'm like, well, I get that. We love fish and a deal too. A dollar a fish? Show me this fish.

Did you go look at the fish? I did. He has bass. He had catfish. He had another one that I didn't recognize. But, yeah, man, like a dollar of fish in the back of the truck. Did you buy any fish? No, I didn't buy fish from this dude's back of the truck.

At first I was like, that's a steal. Like, this is a good deal. Expensive fish inside the store, cheap fish in the parking lot. It sounds like the guy that comes to the gas station and goes, hey, you like music? Like, yeah, got the speakers in the back. Yeah, no, you shouldn't do that. They'll throw you in the van and kidnap you. You think this guy was trying to get you with fish?

No, I think the guy was, the speaker people sell you, oh crap, stolen speakers. Oh, no, it's mostly hot stuff. That's the first thing I thought, too. This guy has stolen fish. How do you steal fish? I don't know. It's cookware. You want to rob a fish store?

Yeah, or a fish farm. But he really said that about you being Mexican? Yeah, that's how he opened up the conversation. At first, I was like, oh, great, what does this guy? Okay, I'm you. Yeah. Walk up to me as the fish guy. Hey, man, what's up?

How are you doing, buddy? Are you Mexican? And then when you say, yeah, I am. Hey, cool, man. Hey, look, I got some fish for a dollar in my back of my truck. You interested? Do they do this at home? No, I've never been at.

to buy fish to the back of the truck. You never been fish solicited? No, like, back when I was growing up, like you go to the shrimp boats or the fish boats when they come in and they sell them off the boat. But no, not a dude in the parking lot. Like, racist dude trying to give you a deal? Yeah, yeah. That's like an oxymoron.

Oh, no. You're a little nice. So I guess a month or so I go, I got one of those 23 Me kits and I spit in it. I didn't know what I was doing. I'm supposed to spit in it and test your DNA. And so I spit in it and it. I mailed it off and it came back. It took a few weeks.

And I found out things like I'm mostly white. By the way, I don't think there's any debate there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm a little bit like sub-Saharan African or something. That's cool. Right. And so things like I'm not going to lose my hair. Which is super exciting.

Pretty awesome. And they also have this thing called DNA. I didn't know how to do it except just it tells me I'm from but there's a thing where you can unlock and give people

access to know if they're related to you and so it doesn't really any personal info unless you like agree to it's like I got a request yesterday and it was like

hey someone's trying to reach out to you a relative and that shows you the percentage their math it was a second cousin who I never met my life

so you want to hear the message I gotta leave the names out I'm getting this yesterday and by the way I don't think they've paid a red cent to advertise in the show I think they're going to

because I started talking about it and people started buying it and they're like we should advertise on the show so as of right now i don't think they're a client but i do think they'll end up coming on because i was a fantastic thing and then that's how we end up with most of our clients we end up doing something yeah just yeah in full transparency to our audience so okay here we go it says from a relative i got this note yesterday hey bobby i thought i would tell you a couple things to make things clear my name is johnny okay your biological father's mother and i have the same father but different

mothers. I did the tracking. Whoa. It's my grandmother's half brother. Wow, that's close. So my father is probably where you get your small percentage of African DNA. I grew up and he lists some people that are in my life

or were when I was tiny. But he's like, congrats on your success. Johnny. And I was like, dang, a relative, I didn't even know. And you remember the people he talked about? A couple of them yet. Wow. But from when I was tiny. Yeah. Because I don't know my real dad. But I do know some of that side of the family a bit.

But, yeah, he messaged me yesterday. It was crazy. And you're talking about somebody who does not know their... I don't know my family. Like, I don't know the history. I do now. I'm apparently white and African. Yeah.

Yeah. And so... That was neat. What's happening here? Before the show, Amy and I will be in my office. There's a little mini studio in there. We record commercials. And Amy will record commercials after the show.

And apparently Amy's been yelling at Ray. Yeah, I needed him. And I was like, Ray. And he never came. And I'm like, Ray. And then so I get up and I go in there and he said, I don't know how things work at your house. But at my house, when you need somebody, you get up and you go to the room and you talk to them. You don't just yell for them.

And I was like, oh my goodness, Ray just schooled me. But when I'm in there with Bobby, Bobby goes, Ray. And Ray comes running. So you're learning from Bobby. That's like parents stuff. Yes. And then the minute I try to go, Ray, nothing. And then Ray gives me the, I don't know how things work at your house.

First of all, Ray, I commend you. Thank you. Yeah. Boom. Second of all. Yeah, he showed me. It's a little different. Ray and I are working on seconds in that morning.

And it's like, do this, boom, boom, boom, boom. I needed something. No, you're just chilling. You're just chilling. No, I did. I needed him. I had a question. Would you like to apologize?

Ray, I'm sorry. I did. He's, I know. He was like, he's right. The minute it happened to me, it was just funny how he did it. Because we're at work. We're not at home. But, you know, Raymond, he's like, I don't know how things work at your house.

But you're right, Ray. I should have gotten up and spoken, come to your room and spoken to you. You were working. Yeah, I mean, I forgive you. I was just telling you, that's how I've been raised. And then I even brought to my girlfriend. I was like, hey, we don't do the yelling thing. Just definitely let's discuss stuff.

Always never yell through a wall. That's just like, it's disrespectful, but it makes me feel like a dog. Oh, wow. He sounds hurt. I don't want to make you feel like a dog. Man, is that what my husband feels? Because sometimes I'm like, honey. Dang.

You should ask him, maybe. What? Wow. I hate when sometimes you're trying to have a conversation. Like, I'll be showering. My husband tries to, like, have a full-bone conversation with me. I have water in my hair, my ears. I can't hear.

You're not the victim. Yeah, don't turn this around. Like, this is a publicity spin. And I'm going to tell him, Ray. I'm going to tell him. I said, I don't know how you did it in your house growing up. But when I'm taking a shower, I don't feel like a dog

You don't talk to me And now I feel like a dog Dang Ray came with a hard truth He did Yeah And then maybe tried to deflect it Like to her husband

Who's not in the room To defend himself Poor God I'm the one that yells But he does try to have Full-blown conversations To me while I'm showering And I'm like

I can't hear you Cool Cool cool Cool people that you have to report to if you're going to get a certain kind of dog, like in your neighborhood? Yeah. And so I guess there's a guy that wants to get a pit bull and the HOA rejected him.

Then the guy requested a meeting before the board to hear him out. And so they said that this is not an opportunity for voting or will anything be changed, but they are going to respect his wish to be heard. Can I represent him? And anybody in the neighborhood can come and sit in at the meeting. Oh, my goodness. Yes. It's over at Mary's house.

Is that something? M-A-R-Y, I don't know. Mary, I don't know her, but she's on the email. We'll find her. Yeah. So, wait, your neighborhood says no pit bull. By the way, for those that are new to the show, I have a Pibble. Lunchboxes get nine Pibbles or something.

It seems like nine. Yeah. Well, and it's kind of crazy because I have a Rallweiler. Amen. We are the quintessential group of people that say it's not about the breed of the dog. It's how you raise any breed of the dog. Maybe there's, like, special things because it's like a pit bull rescue and maybe they don't know its past. But either way, like, it doesn't matter.

To me, it doesn't matter. I always feel like pit bulls. Any large dog gets discriminated against because they're large. And they say, well, since they're large, they can do more damage, then we should get rid of big humans. Wow. Because you know who can do the worst damage? Bigger, stronger humans. Oh, good point.

There should only be weaning men like me left. Anybody bigger than me? Cut off. You're out. You cannot move into my neighborhood. You got to stop boxing. Yeah. Yeah.

I'm just, Amy. What? I'm just kind of irritated. Because I tried to move into places, and my dog is 14 years old. And he's a Staffordshire Bull. Sweetest dog never once had an aggression issue, ever, ever. Not even toward me. And sometimes I used to, like, thump him into his little nuts.

It'd be funny. Oh, wow. And he never got mad. Even at that. Thumb me and mine and see what happens. Okay. I'm over here. See?

I'll bite you. My dog did. Yeah, and you couldn't live so. I'm so irritated for this person. I know. And I got kicked. Yeah, told I couldn't live in places. Maybe when he presents his case before the board, there'll be a change of heart.

I hope so. When is this case? I think it's maybe tomorrow night at Marys. Oh, good Friday night and party at Mary. Should we shop with snacks? Man, let me know how it goes. Okay. Keep you posted.

If not, if Mary says no, we toilet paper Mary's house. Oh, I love that. Oh, I think Mary's just being nice in hosting. Oh, okay, maybe nice. Then we should take her pie. I don't know, Mary. And we find out who's this. Yeah.

She's just on the email as the home that's hosting the meeting. That whole thing's crazy. That's all the thing's crazy. I can't believe in neighborhood says no. And then they're having a court session. Yeah. We should get. It's a hearing before the board.

Let us know how it goes. Okay. I think McDonald's has the best French fries. Do tell us. What are they doing? What are they putting in there? Beef flavoring. Mm.

They're coated in beef flavoring. That makes them activate your umami taste buds. Mm-hmm. Those umami taste buds. Oh, um-y-mami. Those in your salt taste buds working together are what hooks you. By the way, that means the fries aren't vegan-friendly. I was just about to say, are vegans thinking they're just, like, eating some potatoes and salt, and they're not. And beef flavor comes from milk. Did you know that, not from beef? No, I didn't know, I didn't know for sure if it came from beef, but, yeah, milk would make it not vegan.

So there's a science as to why those are so good. Okay, you don't have to pick them. I pick McDonald's fries and have for years. It's my favorite French fries. best french fry that exists amy well i think your answer is solid i'm gonna go with a chick-filet waffle fry that's a good one i do enjoy a good waffle for pride i just i can't do it i'm stumbling because i just can't see how anyone would not pick macdonald's well hey you do you i know lunchbox i'm gonna have say bobby's the smartest man in the room on this one it's macdonald's fries could you imagine if macdonald's took their formula and made it into a waffle

i would never want them to do that why i messed my greatness here's the thing too I like Waterburgers fries. They're good. But the fact that Waterburger, depending on where you are regionally, like in Texas and in the South West, you have water burgers. They have the ketchup

that are in the hard packs. The fancy. The ketchup makes that fry amazing. Best hamburger, period. Who is it, Amy? Chain. You're asking a wrong person. Come on, you're eating meat again.

I was talking to her friend the other day. She was like, I was with Amy, and Amy was ordering meat, and it was so weird. Yeah. Best hamburger. I will go with... McDonald's.

So you really haven't had many hamburgers? I really have. From chains, honestly, I really haven't. Lunchbox? I would say Waterburger,

but they're not national. Yeah, it's a chain, though. It's a chain. I'd chain it up. Okay. Man, I used to get, when I was a kid,

quarter pounder with cheese, especially when it'd come with a free VHS tape if you got the meal pack. A VHS? Yeah, I got dirty rotten, dirty rotten scounders on VHS. I don't know what,

my mom and I would go there all the time. We'd order whatever combo you had to order to get the VHS tape. Wow, You could be like VCR things? That's, I'm telling you.

And I remember the day we got dirty rotten scounders on VHS, and we were like, this is amazing. I'm going to say this one, and I still think it's overrated, but it's still the best. What? That's possible. I think the best hamburger is in and out. Oh, I don't know. But I think the whole in and out experience is a bit overrated because everybody just talks that it's the greatest thing ever. And I don't think it's the greatest thing ever, but I think it's the best hamburger.

Okay. The only thing I've had from there was when I went with y'all and I got the veggie burger, which doesn't exist. They basically gave me buns with a piece of cheese and some lettuce. Yeah, they're being funny. And they were like, here you go.

Get your bobby bones on. The morning corny. How long do chickens work? Hmm. How long do chickens work? Around the clock. I know. That was the morning corny.

Good one, no. How's a good one? Let's go. Bobby Bones. The Bobby Bones Show. On the Bobby Bones Show now. Sugar Land. All right.

Welcome back, Sugar Land. They're here today. We have a royal premiere of their song, which we played earlier, which, by the way, I love the song. Still the same. Thank you.

How long have you been sitting on this song right here? Well, it actually was the very first song that we wrote when we first sat in a room together for the first time. after. Really? Almost six years. Five, six years. We walked in and sat down on the floor in New York and we were like, what do you want to do?

I don't know. Why don't we start where we are? Let's talk about that. Let's talk about not knowing. So you go into a room and this is the first song and then I guess it's the best song because you're rolling out with it first. I mean, that must mean you guys are right back in it. Like you just feel like.

It's super creepy and awesome. Yeah. It's like walking outside and you have a jet pack on. Where do you guys, what room do you go to to write? I mean, we've always written everywhere, but this time we were at, where we were at, we were at Pearl Studios in New York, which is a big rehearsal space for, I mean, music, for theater, for dance, for everything that's just a huge building with lots of rehearsal spaces.

We were in a corner room besides the other room. Yeah, we were in a water fountain, which is really important. And nobody had the title of that song when you went in or did some out. No, no. Did you just made it up? Look at this. You know, that's also one of the things that we don't talk to a lot of people about is that Jennifer and I didn't ever, if I hadn't correct me if I'm wrong, right? We never really wrote hundreds and hundreds of songs.

We wrote 25 songs and 20 of them went on records. Yeah. And that must be nice. Or, you know what I mean? Like, it was really weird to have this experience. It's very, and I don't have it with a lot of other collaborators, you know, where, and then it consistently becomes something that's on the radio. So that's fun. Well, congratulations.

on that song. So how about this? The tour are about to very soon all the deep but you are playing C2C

which is over in Europe so unless you're going to pay a bunch of money nobody to listen right now is going to go over there. They might but you are right

it is a bit of a of a trick. But that's where you're playing first but you are going to play America, right? Yes, we are.

And tour dates are coming. Yep. Get online as we've said Sugarlandmusic com. We're going to be announcing those dates

soon. And you're doing the Dick Clark New Year's Rock and Eve. Yes! Oh my gosh. How about that? So what does that mean?

Are you playing outside? Oh, yeah? We're outside in this thing. Do like Mariah Carey. Do like Mariah Carey. And just lose it. And just like, don't even try. Just like do.

Just laugh and don't just make up. Yeah, just feel like, I let the song play over the top. We need some dancers. It was the first thing that ran through my head. When they called, I was like, wait a minute. They're not going to mess it up. Are they? Well, they didn't mess it up.

I know. I just like, if you don't. I just don't. I just done with the nervousness. Then no track. Bless. Bless. A thousand blessings on that.

that one. But yes, we are doing it, which will be exciting. It'll be a chance for... Have you ever been there? I mean, since you've lived there, have you gone down to Times Square on New Year's Eve before? Oh, no. I've never been on New Year's Eve. I mean, yeah, the crowd, I don't do big crowds like that very well.

Unless it's the Sugar Land concert. Unless I want to stay. Unless they're paying to see you. Yeah, if I want to stay, I can do it. That's the life. But like, just, yeah, to, yeah. I see it here. I don't write songs unless they go on records. I don't do crowds unless they're coming to see me. efficient.

Yes. I like it. All right. Congratulations on the song coming out today. Thank you. We're so excited. I mean, we're excited for, to be able to offer something to the fans after this time and to be able to offer something that I think is so authentically representative of where we are right now and of who we are, which is what we've always done.

You know, still the same. Still the same. Look at you guys. Sugar Land, new song. And we'll see you guys soon. And we can't wait to see all the info. about where are you going to be in America. Yes.

Merry Christmas, everybody. Yes, yes. And if you want to see them, they'll be a C-to-C festival, March 9th or 11th in Dublin. Come on. You like announcing, London and Glasgow. It makes it seem super cool. Yeah. No, it's cool.

It is super cool. That's a wonderful festival. And I'm glad, I mean, it makes sense just date-wise for us to be over there and do it. But from a music standpoint and for what that festival is, it's fantastic because, you know, everybody loves country music. Yeah, well. Send us video. Yes. You're not going?

Nah, I got my pass on that one. Come on. All right, thank you guys. See you soon. All right, Sugarland. Everybody say bye to Sugar Land. Bye, Bye,

Salibu. A lot of people on vacation this week. When you go on vacation, do you take on debt? No. It's plant. My husband, no. If we would,

we wouldn't do the trip. Is that because of your husband? Yeah. He's pretty on top of things like that. I'd be like, let's figure it out later. You only live once. Let's go.

Amy's yoloing. But I can be pretty responsible. Just sometimes I don't pay it. Gulf Shores, Yolo! Yeah. Yolo. And my husband's like, actually not Yolo. Will you take on debt?

We take on a little bit of debt, but we try to use a little gift certificate here. Or if we got friends with points at a hotel, we say, hey, can you throw us the points? You can transfer points? Absolutely. Really? Absolutely. You ask your friends to throw you points. Put them up.

Give me a hotel room for a couple nights. That's how you do it. You got a barter. Eddie? Oh, no debt. No, no, no. I'm already in like serious debt in life. So when we go on vacation,

I'm actually getting made fun up from my wife and my family because I say like, nope, we're not doing fun stuff. We've had a lot of Dave Ramsey in our life. Yeah. And he's like, don't. About 74% of Americans go into debt to pay for a getaway. It's about $1,100 bucks on summer vacation. A getaway is supposed to be relaxing.

I feel like if I was going into debt for that, it'd be stressful. Wait until you have kids. Very stressful. They're going to want to do. Go cards. No, stop. We're not teaching my kids about any of that stuff. They don't know about it.

Like, what do you think I said? Oh, you said something else. That's a lot more expensive than Go cards, buddy. What did you say? I don't know what y'all think he said. All the guys are laughing, so I don't know what I said. And it lasts longer than vacation, man. What are you talking about?

Bobby Bones. Bobby Bones show. All right, I'll give you the fun fact about the artist. You give me the artist. Now, we'll start off hard. And you can yell at any time. and that's how you're buzzing in. You got an in-the-artist by the fun fact.

It was a little late, but a guitar and a mic at the same time. By 15, he was using a sound system and mic to sing at local churches and events. He would take it with them and go perform.

His cousin was a member of the Graskels, a famous bluegrass band that plays at the Grand Ole Opry a lot. And was a member of Dolly Parton's band, too. He opened for Taylor Swift at one point on the Red Tour. This is the one that's going to give it to you. Amy. Go ahead, Amy. Red Eldridge. The last one was he dated a Victoria's Secret Model.

Oh. And the weird thing about that was, we weren't. not to say aloud, I can say whatever I want, but we hung out with them, and we're like, eh, we're not going to say anything because it was like, are they dating? And we were hanging out with both. We never did. And we didn't say anything. Like, we know we hung.

What? Well, I mean, it had come up like in the skinny about something like, you know, is it happening? And then like that night we were like hanging out with them. We were like, oh, shoot. So are they not together anymore? No. No. I mean, I didn't follow up on that.

No, they're not together. Stop it with that. Stop it with that. It was like a year ago. Stop. Okay, okay, okay. All right, you ready for this one? Name that artist.

Yeah. I'll just call you Cog, the King of Games. The Co-O-O-C-O-C is better. You got Ko-Wong? It's awkward. Oh, hey. I've had my share of losers, liars and users. Bobby Bones, everybody.

Transmitting across America. All right, so there's a segment we do called Time Marches On. And basically it's us finding the little moments in our life and realizing that Time March is on. And then we can do about it except get older and accept it and be happy with it. So we'll go around the room. If you have one, feel free to raise your hands. Because I'll go first.

This is what I brought it up. My doctor, I go get a physical. Healthy as a horse. He's like, I can tell you're eating right. You're physically fit. Your blood. He's good. He said, Bob would send you a prescription.

You go get it. So I go in. I don't know what it is. He says something. When the doctor's talking, I'm always like, blah, blah, blah. I'll just go take the medicine. So I go to the doctor Now I go to the pharmacy

Because he calls it And they're like okay here's your medicine And they say okay so this is apparently for your cholesterol And I'm like my cholesterol Oh man Oh no They were like you don't have enough bad cholesterol or something I don't even know there's two different kinds of cholesterol

Yeah this good and bad And they're like you don't have enough bad cholesterol So you need to take this medicine Or I don't even know All I know is I'm not taking medicine for cholesterol With that I say I'm on time marching on It's pretty bad

37 and I'm on cholesterol medicine. But my doctor was like, people act like that, you know, all these diseases are what kills them. It goes heart disease to kill people. Like, so fix your cholesterol. I was like, time marches on, doc. My marches on.

Raise your hand if you have one. Amy. Mine goes back to when I started watching that show 13 reasons why. And one of the kids in the show goes to his dad because he gets these tapes in the mail. And he's like, hey, dad, where's your radio thing? And his dad's like, you mean my boom box? And he's like, yeah, whatever it's called.

Does it play tapes? And the dad's like, yeah. Like the kid did not even know what it was called to play a cassette tape. Netflix kids don't know cassette tapes. Time March is on. Lunch box? I'm at the store the other day and I look over and I'm like, man, that looks really cool. I bought myself some houseplants.

Wow, you thought a house plant was cool? An indoor. Indoor. Wow. I was like, man, that looked kind of cool in the house. Wow. Look at that. Wow.

Eddie, do you have one? The other day I was watching TV and that commercial came on. You know which one I'm talking about? The Volkswagen commercial where, like, they keep switching out cars because they're making babies and the car's rocking in the commercial. And I yelled to the TV like, that's so inappropriate. Why would they have that in a commercial? And my wife looks at me goes, oh, my gosh, you're so old.

That's not inappropriate This is a commercial I saw that commercial And I reround it and watched it three times Because it was so funny I don't know the commercial Yeah I haven't seen it But if you're yelling at commercials

Yeah, that's old man stuff You're an old You whippersnappers and you're a commercial Hey time marches on everybody Don't forget it As soon as you forget it Don't blink It'd be gone

Don't blink Come on y'all Bobby Bones show Yeah Let me ask you a personal question. Did you go see your mom's cemetery spot while you were in Austin? I did. Yeah. Yeah. And I have never gone before. So you've never gone. No. And it's a fit. She's, it's been three years and I've never gone. And obviously, I'm back in Austin. There's been times for me to go, but I just couldn't bring myself to go.

So it was just, uh, you couldn't get there yet. Yeah. I wasn't ready. And I knew that. that when I went, I had to go on my own time when I was ready because my sister's already gone. And for me, I just was not ready. But I knew the three-year anniversary-ish time frame, like, I just felt like I was ready to go. And I went and my dad went with me and then one of my good friends. My sister was out of town. She couldn't go. But I had her on FaceTime.

Your sister? Yes. And luckily I had her on FaceTime because I got there and I thought I was going to know right where it was and I didn't and the office was closed so I couldn't ask where like her exact plot number and it took me an hour to find her. You walked her in the cemetery for an hour. Yeah, me. Only you can make something like that. Oh, it was awful. It was me. No, I know. I almost feel like it's perfect that it happened because it did lighten the mood a little bit because it got to the point where my dad was like, then my dad and I were bickering each other. I'm like, dad, you said you knew

where it is. He's like, I told you I thought I knew where it was. He goes, there's 50,000 people buried in here. And then we're like yelling across the cemetery. And then my sister's on FaceTime and she's like, okay, go back to the entrance of the cemetery and we're going to walk through this from the entrance. So we go to the entrance and we finally

walk through it. My sister's like, look for a windchime and a bench. And I look around, I'm like, there's wind chimes and benches everywhere. So finally, I just stumble upon it. I mean, we were in, we knew we were in the hot spot the area and I just I look up and I'm like oh my goodness there it is there it is and her headstone was beautiful my sister did a great job and I had roses and I knelt down and I just placed the flowers there and sat there for a little bit and it was definitely weird and it made it very real but it was good and I'm glad I went you know that's good and I'm glad I had the comedic relief

of not being able to find her because that helped me because I was definitely a little bit of a hot mess. It's weird. So when my mom died, and my mom's, like, I don't know, what do you? Death anniversary was like a week ago or so. Yeah, ours are around the same time. Yeah. And so, but we cremated her and put her ashes out. So do you go visit that? No, I don't always, I don't feel like that's a thing. I don't, yeah, I don't know. Because I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why I don't feel like that's a thing. Okay. But no. Well, you could. Oh yeah. I mean, I could. Yeah.

We used it to do what's right for you. Anyway, personal question. Yeah. I figure you care. Bobby Bones. The Bobby Bones show. As we end the show today, I just want to remind you to get a Mr. Bobby Bones on Instagram or Bobby Bones.com.
