Welcome to Thursday show.
Morning studio.
Morning.
Listen, it's early in the morning.
I'm always like, how much excitement do I bring really early?
I know some of you folks trying to sleep.
They're sleeping.
Like I just barbs in the room.
Hopefully you elected to have us on.
But, you know, when it's early, sometimes you don't love.
the excitement. And I say that
because if I get on a flight
and it's really early, I ain't trying to have people
even the person over the speaker. I don't need too
much excitement. I don't need any funny games from the flight attendants.
Like I'm ready to lay down.
Put my head down, fall asleep.
Here is a 6 a.m. flight last week
on a Southwest Airlines flight where they grabbed
the little phone and like, hey everybody, and just singing
full blast, I will always love you.
Oh. That's so mean.
Like, take a fork and just shove it in my ears.
That's so mean. What? It ain't
hurt. It ain't good enough to do that.
3 p.m.
And it doesn't matter how good it is at 6 a.m.
I would bet you 60% of the plane is just wanting to go to sleep.
And I'm sure that's that flight attendant's routine where they get on, they sing.
Everybody like, hey, and then they go about their little announcements.
6 a.m. that ain't the thing.
You don't do it before 9.
I'm going to put it at 9.
If it's 8.58, you wait two minutes.
You let it get in the air.
One more time.
Here's the flight attendant that early.
That is such a sour note, too.
That's like one of the people on Idol
in the early stages where you know their mom
but yeah, you're really good.
And I would watch them sing and I'd be like, man,
I'm proud of you for doing it,
but right now, it ain't for you.
And right now at 6 a.m., that wasn't for her.
That is not a good situation.
So I saw that.
I wanted to start the show there.
And then have one other thing I wanted to play
as far as clips ago.
There's a marriage therapist
saying the secret to a more perfect union
as far as being married
and making sure you're happy every day
is practicing active response.
What do you think active responsibility is?
I feel like taking responsibility for your side of things and making sure you're self-aware.
Yeah, I mean, sort of.
It's mostly, it's very practical things.
Like if you walk by the kitchen and the dishes are piled up, clean them.
Watch the dishes.
If the car is extremely dirty, watch the car.
It's like if you see something, take care of it if it ain't right.
So this is a clip from this therapist.
Active responsibility.
would be you looking around the house for things that you could do and taking responsibility
for the things that need to happen within the house. Passive responsibility being available to help,
but waiting for somebody to tell you what needs to be done. When it comes to household chores and
childcare, which one are you doing? Are you taking passive responsibility or active responsibility
for the things that need to get done? This is one of the top things that I hear from women as a
complaint saying that their husbands are waiting for them to tell them what needs to be done.
and they're really looking for her partner in life who is actively responsible for the house and for the children and not waiting for their wife to tell them what to do.
Amy, where do you fall into being active or passive?
Oh, I'm active.
You go and you search out for things to do.
Yes.
Because they don't get done if you don't do them?
No, I don't want to imply that at all.
I don't imply that, but I'm typically active.
Like, if I can't handle if the dishes are dirty, like I try to figure out what's going on with the kids.
Yeah, I'm active in the one.
I don't mind doing.
And that is?
I don't mind cleaning the kitchen.
If she cooks, I will actively go and just clean the kitchen or I will say, hey, I will
clean.
I don't mind that.
But in cleaning the kitchen, I don't, the dishes get rinsed and left in the sink for the
most part.
But I clean all the counters.
I like that.
The dogs, I'm happy to clean the dogs.
I feed the dogs, clean the dogs, all that.
Fine.
But there's some other stuff I don't really like doing.
I just got to be, I don't like folding laundry.
You need to be told you.
I mean, you can punch me in the face, in the gut, in the knees and stomped my feet.
Yeah, man.
I hate folding laundry.
So that one's not fun.
So, yeah, I think I'm 75% active, 25% passive.
Eddie?
100% active.
And I hate that this therapist, I hate that this therapist said this is the number one
complaints from wives out there.
You're active 100%?
My number one complaint about wives.
Oh, yours about wives.
Absolutely.
Wait, you're active?
Are you understanding what I'm saying?
Yes, 100%.
If I see something, oh, look, you know what I did the other day?
I washed the window.
Why?
Because I saw handprints on it.
Is this new Eddie?
Yes.
Okay, I thought so.
Go ahead.
This is definitely not old Eddie.
Now, now, now, I'm not perfect.
You just said 100%.
I like that too.
I can say anything wrong.
I'd be like, yeah, I'm great.
I'm not perfect.
If I smell a smelly diaper, I do kind of walk away from it.
That'd be passive.
I've been guilty of that, but I'm trying to work on that.
So you're not 100%.
98 then.
Ooh, a diaper's more than 2% booty.
As a kid, you got kids.
You got baby, you know?
Well, that's where I'm in.
So that is the top complaint from wives.
plus Eddie. That's ridiculous.
Yes, Amy. Well, I guess on the car
front, I don't necessarily wash my car
or put gas in it. Pretty passive.
But I guess the gas thing's
tough. Yeah, I was going to say, if you're
not a wash your car family,
we are not. We are not.
We're not. We prefer I wash it.
We don't watch crap. If it rains with part, we'll pull it out in the driveway.
But it's not like it needs to be used. That's how you
wash your car? Let God do it, yeah.
Yeah. That's a good idea. Big man upstairs, I'm charging a nickel.
Yeah, that's right.
But that's not a thing for us because that's not important.
But yes, the gassing the car.
I wanted to also admit I'm not perfect.
No, we're not perfect.
Caitlin is very active.
She just sees stuff and gets it done and never even brags about it.
If I do it, I'm brag about it, though.
I may write a song about it.
I clean the kitchen tonight.
Ooh, that's good, man.
That's a good one.
Thank you very much.
It's time for the mailbag.
You send an email and we read it on the air.
It's something we call Bobby's mailbag.
Yeah.
Bobby Bones. My four-year wedding anniversary is coming up to the end of the week.
My husband and I don't have any traditions for our anniversaries, except we go to a nice dinner and we spend some time together.
We did not discuss getting gifts for each other. But yesterday, my husband mentioned the gift had been delivered for me and not to go and pick it up to let him get it off the porch.
He's incredibly hard to shop for, given that I don't know how to buy him the things he really likes.
He's golfer. He loves college football. I feel like a shirt or something's too impersonal.
but I only have a few days to get him something.
I know you have similar hobbies.
Maybe you can help me.
What do I get him as a last-minute anniversary gift?
Thanks, signed.
Amy and Texas.
This is bizarre, because usually this is a dude going,
I forgot, what do I do?
It's almost never a woman.
And it's your fourth.
It's not even your first.
Golly, yeah.
I've done this few times.
If I don't know the gift situation,
I get a gift in the situation.
I don't want to be left being the one who didn't.
I'm always happy to be the one.
It's like if I'm not sure the dress code,
I'm probably going to overdress a little bit
because it's easier to be overdressed and way underdressed.
So you messed up.
But we're going to learn something here.
One, you can use your technology to make sure this doesn't happen again,
meaning you can tell S-I-R-I in your phone.
I don't want to say it because it'll go off.
You can say, hey, on this date, it can be a month prior.
Remind me to get my husband a wedding gift.
And it will go off in your phone.
Really?
Yeah, boom.
And then you have more time and you're not stressed.
And then you have a month to do it.
So there.
Or you can put it in a calendar.
That's number one.
Number two is Amazon is your friend.
Amazon can get you basically whatever you need in a couple of days if you have prime or if you pay a little extra for it.
So this is what I'm going to say.
I'm just giving you a very practical idea.
We don't have a lot of time here.
It's about to be your anniversary.
He loves college football.
Whoever his team is.
Let's say he's a Razorback fan and he loves golf.
You can get him an Arkansas Razorback head cover.
for one of his clubs. A three wood, a driver, getting a big hog. I mean, that's cool. That's what I have.
So he may like Ohio State. He may like Iowa. I don't know, but you can get him a head cover for his club or even a putter cover. And then you get him a gift card to go to the golf store to get him something that he chooses. That way you got the personal part and you got the gift card. Guys don't need it to be as personal. Most don't I do. But guys don't need it to be as personal and he won't. He'll think you spent time doing it. It's going to be awesome. Just do that. You're taking care of. You will thank me later. Amy and Texas.
golf club cover and a gift card the end.
I think that's it.
And don't forget next year when your anniversary is.
Okay, guy?
Sorry, not a guy.
Girl?
Yeah, what's happening here?
Okay, that's all.
Now I'm exalted.
I'm winded.
I'm winded.
It's so passionate about that.
I'm winded.
All right, that's the mail bag.
Close it up.
We've got your email and we've read it on the air.
Now it's about to close Bobby's mail bag.
Yeah.
I'm about to talk with Gray Robinson.
on TikTok a while ago. It was like, you're really good. She came in and performed. It's pretty
cool. She's continued to put out music and I feel like she's just getting better and better.
We featured her on the Women of I Heart Country a couple of times, and she has a new
song called Ruin Tennessee. Really great new artist. Just signed her first publishing deal,
and we'll talk to her about that. So, here she is. Let's talk to Gray Robinson.
In studio now is Gray Robinson, who we brought you
because I think you just sent like a TikTok song up and I was like dang you're good
come on she's here by herself we've been featuring her on the women of our heart
country and congratulations all your recent success thank you did you run into my
wife somewhere yes I ran into her at Zara at the mall many months ago we talked
for a second she said she's so sweet she said um a woman or girl or probably woman she
doesn't call people girls came a young I don't know something came up to me and she was so
nice and I just kind of assumed it was you. Yeah. She said she had played on your show before. Oh yeah.
And so and then someone said you saw me in public somewhere and wouldn't come up. I saw you at
Oku. A restaurant. Yes. And you were with your wife and Brett Eldridge. And I felt so rude. I was like,
I don't want to come up and just interrupt his dinner so I didn't say hey, but then I emailed scuba.
That's how you said hey, emailed scuba. Just let him know that I say hi. So were you sitting near us?
Yeah. It was yeah. And you didn't even.
go like where we're just well here we are now so if we know each other you should you have permission
i know to be like hey bobby how's it going i know i should have but it was like a small little dinner
and i was like we were just having dinner i don't think you never know okay it's probably brett than
intimidated her it wasn't even us well how you been everything good i've been great yeah are you
are you playing much yeah i've been well that's kind of the next step is um looking for some shows
to play but i'm i'm married now remember i was engaged and i was planning my wedding and i was
leaving right after the show last year.
And how did that go?
It went so good.
What was the wedding like?
It was the best day of my life.
Besides being on the show, that was second best, but the wedding was definitely first.
Where did you get married?
The Greenbrier and West Virginia.
So is he from West Virginia or are you?
No, we're both from North Carolina.
And so why West Virginia?
It was just meant a lot to us.
I've kind of been going there for my life and yeah.
Did you do your own vowels?
We did.
Yeah, that's cool because you're a writer.
Yes.
Did you cry?
Oh my gosh, yes.
I cried too much the whole day.
I cried more than my wife cried when doing mine.
You know, actually, I think my husband did too.
Well, especially when we were up there, but before I was like a mess.
Was he embarrassed that he cried afterward?
No, I think he, like, couldn't even control it.
I think he was just like, it is what it is.
Well, congratulations on the wedding.
And then I hear, too, that you signed your first publishing deal right after you'd come on the show.
Yes.
I signed with 50 Egg Music with Luke Holmes and Jonathan Singleton, and it's been a dream.
And so, yeah.
So you are now getting paid to write songs.
I am.
Isn't that like the greatest thing?
It really is.
How did that come about?
Well, I think from the show, like that just created a lot of buzz.
And I was doing this thing for a while.
And I mean, honestly, once you were like, who was this girl that he put on the show,
I think it kind of started that for me.
And then I just met with a bunch of people, but I just felt like Fancy Egg was my home.
And that's where I ended up.
Did you quit another job that you were?
No, so I just graduated college.
I went to Belmont.
So I graduated in 2020.
And this was like all right after I got.
I was on your show like two months after I graduated.
Wait, how long ago do we have her on?
This was like, was it March, I think of 2021.
That long ago.
Yeah.
What is happening with time?
I thought it was like three weeks ago.
Holy crap.
Her name is Gray Robinson.
I want to play a little clip of her new single.
This is called Ruin Tennessee.
But you're going to play something different for us, I hear.
I am.
Okay, what are you going to play?
I'm going to play my newest single that I released two weeks ago called Fireworks.
Wait, so you got a new single and the newest single?
Yes.
I'm confused.
I think then you should say new if it's the latest.
So I'm doing singles a month.
So that ruined Tennessee was June, Fireworks, July, and then I have a song coming next month, too.
So this will be the newest single.
This is the newest single called Fireworks.
Okay, here she is.
She's just graduated college a couple years ago.
She's got a publishing deal.
She's all over TikTok, and you know what?
She watches me at dinner.
Let's just say it.
It doesn't say hello.
All right, here she is Gray Robinson.
With them late last summer, 10-dollar dates and Percy Presumper and Fourth of July.
Looking up in the skies when I knew.
He said he couldn't wait to show me Colorado.
Told me in August that we'd take a silver ride.
And he knew a place we could stop halfway driving through.
There's sparks flying, but it took it too far.
Knew better, but it trusted my heart.
Got too close.
And when I got burned, because that's how fireworks.
Wish I could have seen the red flags in time.
myself write a love story in my mind should have known I would just get hurt because that's how
fireworks that's how fireworks that's how fireworks that's how fire works great robinson live
nice job you got us to fireworks I'm thinking we're going to hear a song about sparks and love and
fireworks happen and then all of a sudden you switch it on us and you go that's how fire works yes
Dang, got me again.
Let down the path and thrown a curveball.
That song, because you wrote that, but that song, I assume it's not about your new husband?
It's not.
It's funny because people will ask me, they'll be like, why do you, because my both songs that I just released are about, I guess, breakups.
And they're like, why are you releasing songs if you're happily married?
And I feel like I'm just like a writer at first, and I like creating these stories.
And I've been there, but I'm just, I love the songs and I'm putting them out.
And so, yeah.
So that's a story that you created, wink, wink, hey, yeah.
You're sure.
It didn't happen about another guy.
I mean, I've got my fair share, but yes, it's not, like, specific about something.
Yeah.
So we met Gray on TikTok.
Again, she just sent a video, and I was like, hey, come up.
And now you've like, your TikTok's doing really well, huh?
Yes.
Are you spending a lot of time on TikTok, like writing songs, putting songs out there?
Or now that you're a paid singer-songwriter, you're doing more of that?
I mean, TikTok, I'm doing like here and there.
I feel like it's not as much.
Like, I feel like when you put me on the show was huge.
Like TikTok because of COVID and everything, it was such a thing.
But I'm doing a little bit.
I feel like reels are kind of the thing maybe now on Instagram, but I'm doing that.
You must be getting paid for reels like the show.
You get paid?
Isn't that crazy?
I don't, but they all are like shooting reels of everything.
It's awesome.
They're like doing documentaries of going to the bathroom and they're like, let me post this.
No, really?
Yeah, it's crazy.
Are you getting paid?
I do.
Have you made any money?
I mean, a couple hundred.
For like how many reels though?
I literally have probably five.
Morgan's made like thousands, like $3,000, $4,000.
Yeah.
Wow.
Yeah, crazy.
And Eddie won't tell us how much he's making.
Oh, it's too much.
I think it's hiding the money from the government.
You want to know what I think.
If you post the video that has a TikTok symbol, they won't, like, pay you or push your stuff, apparently.
Yeah, of course.
Yeah, you should do that.
So they're, like, making you all everything through Instagram now because they're trying to, you know, be like TikTok.
Well, that's how fireworks.
Well, great, nice job.
Yes, thank you.
I cannot wait to watch you continue to build on this, and it was a great performance.
Yes, thank you.
And next time you see me at dinner.
I will say hi.
As long as my mouth's not full, you can just go, hey, Bobby, how's it going?
I will. That's all it takes.
Well, now this is even better, so I got to, like, hang out with all of you guys.
But, yes, I'll do that next time.
Follow her on Instagram or TikTok, The Gray Robinson, G-R-A-Y.
The Gray Robinson.
There she is.
Gray Robinson, everybody.
Thank you.
It's time for the good news.
With Bobby.
Yeah, I'll make something good.
Crystal Dunn.
Bet 20 bucks on an instant game in the Kentucky Lotto, and she hit a big winning the game's $146,000 jackpot.
So 20 bucks turns into 146,000 bucks.
She's headed to the Kentucky Lottery Headquarters,
and she picked up a check for 103,000 after taxes,
because that's still lump sum.
She deposited the money in her bank,
and then she went to the grocery store.
She went and bought $2,000 worth of supermarket gift cards
and just started handing them out to strangers in the store.
Wow.
Right then, right if she wanted.
Like, she put it in, went right,
and started passing out gift cards to people.
A quote, a few were taken aback,
thinking I was wanting something in return.
and she recalls, which by the way, I would think something was up too.
Somebody just started handing me a gift card?
Mm-hmm.
I was like, what's the play here, buddy?
But that was it.
She won, was grateful, so she went and cut off, cut off some, you know, some of her winnings
for some random folks.
Sounds like something lunchbox wouldn't do.
No chance.
No chance.
All right, that's what it's all about.
That was Tell Me Something Good.
A little trivia game, a little battle of generations.
It's Elder versus Millennial.
Eddie, which decade were you born?
1979, that would be the 70s.
Yeah, it's easy.
You just said the number.
I just had to do it on my head.
Yeah, yeah.
Morgan, you?
The 90s.
See, look what you did.
That was easy.
Pretty cool, huh?
All right, so I'll ask you both questions from each other's.
Just buzz in with your name, if you know it.
Okay, we're going to go to the elder question first.
This means it's an Eddie's strong category.
Every breath you take was a number one song 39 years ago.
Now, before I ask you the question, I want to play you a clip.
Almost 40 years ago, it hit the charts at number one.
Can you name the artist?
Eddie.
Eddie.
The police.
Correct.
Ever heard that song, Morgan?
Heard the song.
I had no idea who sang it.
Do you know the lead singer of the police?
Nope.
Sting.
No, Sting is?
Yes, I do know Sting.
How do you know Sting?
That's weird.
I met him at a radio event one time.
No, you didn't.
I swear.
I swear, I swear, I have pictures of them.
That's the wrestler.
You didn't meet Sting.
I swear.
There's no way you met Sting.
I did.
No.
So that's awesome.
Sting is so...
I was working for the rock station and we met him.
Yeah.
How do you know Sting?
I met him.
Are you sure?
I swear.
I'm sure it wasn't like Steve.
Yes.
I had video from interviewing a person with him.
Yeah.
That's pretty cool.
Was he in town like doing a big concert?
Yeah.
He was in town.
He was performing at one of the music halls here.
That's really cool.
If you met Sting, that's awesome.
Yeah, I mean, I didn't know that I was meeting him.
But yeah.
Okay.
Millennial question.
What's the final?
Harry Potter book.
Eddie.
Eddie.
The Sorcerer Stone.
This is the one you know.
That's the only one you know?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's not right.
It's not right.
I liked it, though.
I liked it though.
Morgan?
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows.
That's correct.
That's never heard of that.
Obviously, because you would guess that one.
All right, one to one.
Eddie, back over into your expertise.
The elder question.
What's the name of the 80s arcade video game
that features a...
frog. Morgan. Wow. Okay. Frogger. That's correct. It's
Steen's favorite arcade game. He demanded it at the concert. They played that
together. She's got a video of her playing it with him. I never played it as a
video game but I did play it on my computer. I think too, I think it's still like a
peacock like game show too like new in the last couple years they play Frogger
across the street with people. Like real Frogger? Yeah. Oh yeah. That sounds scary. I think so.
Oh, she stole one of your questions Eddie. I know. Over to the
millennial questions.
Lady Marmalade.
I'm going to play it here
before I ask the question.
Lady Marmalade.
Yes? That is Rihanna.
Incorrect.
Lady Marmalade was a song
featured in what movie from 2001.
That's so stupid.
Mulan Rouge.
Correct, Morgan, yes.
I knew that it wasn't going to be a question.
We knew, Eddie.
Oh, my gosh.
I should have waited because you said
Mulan. She says it in the song,
You have to wait.
That's why I said I'm going to play it before I ask you the question.
All right, your next elder question.
Magnum P.I.
You guys ever heard of it?
Oh, yeah.
Morgan ever heard of it?
No.
Oh, you never even heard of it.
I know.
A great TV show.
Or the new version?
Maybe.
Like on CBS?
Yeah.
Magnum P.I.
Was set in which U.S. state?
Eddie.
Eddie.
Hawaii.
Correct.
Yeah, I didn't know that.
Great show.
Where to the millennial question?
And Morgan, this is your strength.
And if you get it, you win.
If not, we'll go to two tiebreakers.
Okay?
Here we go.
Final question.
Which brand released the Razor phones?
Morgan.
Eddie by a hair?
Ooh, that's Motorola.
That's correct.
Let's go.
Tiebreaker, baby.
All right.
Tiebreaker question one from each category.
Here we go.
Buzz in if you know the answer.
The sitcom Frazier was a spinoff from what 1980s TV show?
Eddie.
Cheers.
That's correct.
Let's go.
Tiebreaker question, the millennial category.
What Jonas Brother is credited is playing lead guitar in the trio?
More.
Yes, Morgan, you can't make a noise.
It goes more without buzzing in.
Joe.
Incorrect.
Eddie.
Eddie.
That's Nick.
That's incorrect.
Oh, it's Kevin.
The other one.
But Eddie, you won the tiebreaker.
Yeah.
Yes.
How would you like to be known as the other one?
Yeah, I know.
That's right.
Kevin.
I couldn't remember his name.
Sorry, buddy.
But Eddie, you are the elder versus millennial champion.
What's that final score, bones?
The final score right now is Eddie 2, Morgan, Zero.
I love it.
As far as the season.
Yeah.
All right.
What do you have to say for yourself, Morgan?
I don't feel proud, but you know, it's fine.
Eddie has an advantage, so that's the only reason he's winning.
What's the advantage?
You've been alive longer.
Oh, that's true.
But he hasn't been dialed in.
That's also true, but, hey, he has a little bit of an advantage on me.
And he doesn't have a picture with Sting.
That's really cool
That's really true
I'm gonna change someone's life
You're gonna have an opportunity here
Big opportunity
So the people up for grabs in this are
Ray and Morgan
Eddie
So all five of you are up for this
The first person I'm eliminating is Eddie
Eddie is not what?
Already?
Yeah
Just like that
Just like that
My life is just the same now
Yes your life is that
This is an opportunity
This is an opportunity that you will not get right now
Lunchbox
You are still in it
Yes! Yes!
What, Amy?
Is luncheon going to get mad at the person that gets it?
We'll see.
No, because it's going to be me.
Amy, you're out.
Ray.
Yeah!
You're in.
Yes.
The finals.
Morgan, you're out.
I'm sorry.
It's me versus Ray.
All right.
Lunchbox and Ray, want to be.
I have an opportunity for one of you.
Wow.
And it's going to change your life if you take advantage of this opportunity.
And here's what I want to tell you about the opportunity.
Because both the opportunity.
you are performers in your own ways? Absolutely. Lunchbox, what's your strength as a performer?
Oh, stage presence. I know how to interact with a crowd. I mean, I am not nervous. I don't get shy.
I know how to own a room. Ray, what is your, whenever it comes to performing? What's your like go-to?
What are you good at? Yeah, I don't know if it's a hosting position or something. I'm good at
reading the teleprompter, thinking on my feet, being funny, spontaneous. A lot of stuff that most people
could never do in a million years. Well, for one of you, I have.
an audition.
Whoa!
Yeah!
Oh yeah! Let's go!
Where are we auditioning?
LA?
A real life, a real deal deal.
So, so the opportunity is you gotta nail the audition.
That's fine.
But if you nail the audition, there will be a gig.
A gig.
And you will go to the city with a lot of people.
A city with a lot of people, New York.
West.
West.
LA!
Yeah.
So it's either Ray or Lunchbox.
Man, I need to get a stylist.
Could be Reno.
Cut your hair.
You need to cut my hair.
You need hair good anyway.
I know, maybe I'll wear a helmet on the plane.
Hey, lunchbox, here's what I'm going to tell you.
Yeah.
The person that gets to do this audition, if they nail it, they're going to get a role.
A gig.
A gig.
The person is.
Hey, lunchbox.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Let's go.
It's you.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Hey.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's go! Let's go!
And they stay there!
Here's a deal.
Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh.
Should I text my wife? Is this good?
Like, I text my wife about the TV show and it never came through.
We're still working on that.
It's a long play there.
Yeah, yeah.
But here, this is what I can tell you right now.
Go ahead, man.
If you nail the audition,
boom.
You will get the gig
and you will have to be a lot of,
off of work to go do a gig.
Yeah.
And it's a place that, you've been before.
It's a big city where they have productions and stuff.
That's all I can say.
Oh my God.
They don't have production in Reno.
It's a real, yeah, it's not a joke.
I know you're mad because you're not my level.
I'm a little bitter.
Tucson or Reno or.
What?
Duval.
Lubbock.
I'm just saying I'm not sending them west.
I'm not tricking him.
It's not that.
It's not Odessa.
Okay.
So.
So that's what I'm.
I'm going to tell you for right now.
That's it?
It's all I can tell you right now.
When is this going down?
Scoob, when can I give them more information?
Scoob and I've been talking about this for weeks.
We've been working on it for you.
Well, what can I tell?
What do I need to practice?
Hold on.
So at the end of the month, we should have, we should be, we can tell them what it is.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
So I just want to let you know, hey, your life could be a changing.
Oh, my gosh.
Maybe forever.
Yeah.
Maybe forever.
Okay.
What am I going?
I mean, it'll be acting.
Can I tell them that?
I guess I just did.
Yeah, nothing more than that.
Acting?
Acting?
Acting?
So maybe...
Yeah!
This is it.
You've been working so hard for this.
Maybe before we can run over a couple scripts in here.
Oh, yeah.
A little practicing.
Yeah.
Okay.
That's all I can say for now.
I probably wasn't supposed to tell you that, but I wanted this ending of this week.
Question, question.
Okay, go ahead.
Can you just tell me if it's a movie or a TV show?
I can't tell you anything else right now.
Okay.
That's all I'm going to say.
It's not a commercial.
Okay.
So, but.
Oh, a national commercial wouldn't be bad, though.
I know, but I'm just telling you it's a real thing.
Is it with like Hanks or Denzel?
Both.
All right.
So, it is with somebody famous.
Who?
Oh, my goodness.
He's not going to say, Amy.
I can't say.
I've already said too much.
Oh, someone famous.
Kate Winslet.
That's all.
Jennifer Lawrence.
We're done.
I'm going to play Jordan Davis singles.
you up, but we will not talk about this again until probably early next week, okay?
But now you know. Got it? I'm texting my wife.
Call your acting coach now.
This is Victoria in New York who left us a voicemail last night.
I was just wondering if you were ever thinking of doing any of your comedy shows out more so this way and not just only in Nashville.
We would love to go to one. Thanks.
I have no plans to tour. I know. That whole sound was American not caring.
that you just heard.
As of now, I don't have any plans to tour.
I'm doing the show.
We are probably maybe going to pitch it as a special.
Maybe going to pitch.
I don't, we don't know.
But I have no plans to tour right now.
I did get a pretty good offer.
I'll hold that off.
Oh, man, that sounded good.
Whatever you got to say.
I know.
It was something where I'm like, do I deserve it?
But I don't plan to tour.
Touring is tough.
It's tough right now.
But thank you for asking.
And I do have two shows, the 12th and 13th.
There really aren't any tickets to the,
the Saturday 13th show, just some singles.
There are a few to the Friday.
The Friday show, up in the balcony,
there's some tickets like, I don't know, 25 or 30 left.
But the reason it, you know, a lot of people come from out of town
and it's tough to come from out of town
and get to a Friday night show.
So if you're in town or you, I don't know,
get it on Wednesday, just hang out a couple days.
Yeah. Get tickets to that Friday night show.
Just go to bobbybones.com or cMAtheater.com.
It is called comedically inspirational.
Thank you.
The Bobby Bowls Show.
Here's Amy's pile of stories.
Hasbro is launching a selfie series of customizable action figures
so people can scan their faces using its app
and then they'll be turned into a six-inch action figure.
Character is their choice.
G.I. Joe, Ghostbusters, Power Rangers, Marvel, Star Wars.
Feels to me like this is another one of those Russian things
where they're trying to get all of our facial data
so they can make a big brother can watch us to know where we are.
I didn't think about that.
I didn't think about how they would have all your...
I mean, I'm in. That's cool.
Yeah, yeah.
Action figures sounds cool.
Yeah.
Yeah, so which action figure would you be, you want your face on?
Well, probably GI Joe, because those were the options.
It was G.I. Joe, Barbie, wrestler.
But maybe the figures are going to cost $60.
It might be a cool gift for someone, too.
You know, $60 is a lot, but it's right on that edge of that's a luxury, personalized gift.
It's like you're going to spend a little, but that's cool.
It's not bad.
That's cool.
And Russia has all your info.
No, we don't live in Russia, so come to get us.
So a study from Rudker's University
finds that the old saying
Happy Wife, Happy Life is actually very true.
I agree with that, but I'm still too dumb sometimes
to really because I try to keep my wife happy
but I'm like sometimes like, you know, I'm going to go do this
and yeah, she's probably getting annoyed, but I'm going to do it.
Where I just should go, you know what, I'm going to make sure she doesn't get annoyed
because then she'd probably just be like, hey, why don't you go do this?
But I'm still a little dumb in that department.
I've just been by myself for so long,
but I now, after a year in marriage, understand, happy wife, happy life.
That's what their research showed.
Marital bliss is strongly linked to whether the wife is happy and the couple.
On the flip side, when the husband is miserable, the relationship doesn't suffer nearly as much.
And the thing is, women, when they're unhappy, they're likely to talk about it, maybe even be confrontational at times.
When men are unhappy, they tend to sit and cede silently.
Yeah.
Yeah, so that's why.
Yeah, I don't describe any of that scientific study.
Sounds true to me.
Most of the time we question every study.
This one we're like, pretty much nailed it.
All right, what's next?
Shania Twain has a brand new documentary coming out on Netflix.
It's going to be called Shania Twain, not just a girl.
It's going to follow her career from being a Nashville newcomer to an international icon.
And it's supposed to be coming out August 26th.
But then there's some confusion because Netflix at one point tweeted that it was going to be 26 of this month.
So just pay attention to the 26th of July and August.
This has a chance to be great.
I saw some of it.
It also has a chance to be really corny
because sometimes when they do country music stuff
and they're not country music,
they don't quite value it enough.
I hope that because Shania, again,
was also an international pop star,
that they treat it with the value
it should be treated.
I think it'll be awesome
if it's like legit down and dirty.
Yeah.
Because do you need,
we'll call it the warts too?
You need the warts of a story as well,
things that aren't pretty
to actually make you believe
the things that are very pretty.
Because otherwise it's just a slick puff piece and you're like, that's just, we're watching propaganda here, you know?
I need some stuff that's like, well, that doesn't make them look good because then I do believe the stuff that is really great about them.
Otherwise, and it's like, eh, next.
That's why my documentary, nobody watched my documentary.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, where do we watch that anyway?
It was like 30 seconds of me just reading off my awards and didn't get any awards.
All right, is that it, Amy?
Yeah, I'm Amy. That's my pile.
That was Amy's pile of stories.
It's time for the good news.
With producer Eddie.
Tell me something good.
last year, a baby girl in Kansas
named Aspen Campbell was diagnosed
with a rare condition where the bones
in her skull were growing too quickly.
So she went to the doctor and the doctor says she needs
surgery quick. It's going to, like in the next couple
months we need it, but it's going to cost $60,000.
So the family freaks out.
Obviously, this is terrible news. So they put on
all these little community events like garage
sales, bake sales and all these things. And the community
came up and they supported her.
They raised up to $70,000.
They were able to get the surgery.
She had it done two weeks ago.
it was a success and now she's recovering.
So the bones in her skull were growing too fast?
Yeah, it's this rare condition where it just kind of...
I think I had that.
Really?
Okay.
You know how big my head was?
Whoa.
My mom had to cut the slits into my shirt so I could get a shirt on it.
I don't think it was making her head bigger.
I think inside the bones were growing too fast.
What do you think I had?
Just big head for a little bit.
A big brain and big noggin.
Big head for a little bit is not a diagnosis.
Big head until your body catches up.
My body still never really caught up.
here's what I'd like to say two things one that's an awesome story thank you two my head was huge
it still is big but my body's kind of caught up yeah kately and i were talking we just had a one-year
anniversary and we're talking about kind of what we remembered about each other when we first met
and she goes i remember you and you had a big head and tight clothes she said that she met me yeah
she goes because you i had been doing some television show i was on some game show as some kind of
celebrity, whatever.
And so I had makeup on and, like, TV clothes,
which are not real-life human clothes.
And so she goes, I remember you seeing you?
Your clothes are tight and your head was big.
And I was like, that's what you remember?
That's so weird.
I've never known you or thought of you as someone with a big head.
Ever.
Remember when you measured?
And you guys were like, oh, crap.
Yeah, it's big.
We did measure in here.
Oh, no.
Okay, Eddie, good story, babe.
Yeah, thank you.
All right, there you go.
That's what it's all about.
That was Tell Me Something Good.
