you get your podcasts. And Bobby Bones! I had to walk down the hall to go to the bathroom a minute ago. And by walk, I have my single peg leg crutch. And you put your knee in it. And so my foot, and I got the crutch. And, like, everybody's staring at me. But they're not staring at me.

But it feels like it. I just want to yell, stop looking at me. I can do stuff. Right. But really, they're just like, oh, I wonder what's up with Bobby? Why is he on a crutch? Like, you never seen a guy? a crutch before. You never seen somebody disabled?

That's what I want to yell. Must be hard, man. And then I can't pee standing up because I lose my balance. And so I had to pee sitting down, but both stalls were closed. People were in them when I got there. And then I walked in, scuba finally leaves like after like half an hour. I'm always doing it there. And then it was the handicapped stall. And I'm like, leave the handicapped stall open. Right. It felt awkward. I'm like, I've never been, I've never been, I guess I costed or confronted by somebody who is handicapped while using the handicapped stall.

He walks out and I'm right there on him. I'm like, and there was a handicap stall. So I get it. Oh, man. Leave the handicaps stall open. I'm sorry, dude. No, it's all right.

My foot is kind of slightly down at an angle. I'm getting that real. Oh, the ball stop? Yeah, I got to keep it above my head. Yeah, but you haven't been for a long time. What do you mean? It's not up. That's what he's saying.

I know. That's what I mean. We got to get that thing up. I've got it on a piano bench underneath the table. That's not high enough. But I can't do it higher unless I put it on the table. Yeah, but can you lean back? That's what I'm saying.

I could, but no. Lean back and put it on the table. No. Like you're lounging. It's fine. I'm fine. I've never seen a handicapped person before. Okay, man, we're just trying to help.

Yeah, that's what that. So there's that. Amy, let's talk about a couple of viral things. Who do you think's gone viral less of everybody in the room? Less? The least amount of virility. Lunchbox. And who do you think wants it the most?

Lunchbox. asking. Are you serious? Eddie has never gone viral. I have. I've had a one of mine in the millions. And it was lunchbox yelling at Abby. So it was me. But still, it was my video. Just because you're in the video recorded, that doesn't mean your video went viral. He recorded you yelling at Abby. You didn't have the intention of that being online. You just got caught. And it was on my account, so I get the credit. Your video went viral, but you didn't go viral. Payneenny went viral in the one video you recorded of him. You didn't go viral. Right. My video went viral. Not me. Yeah, but that's your video. So that counts.

Yeah, dude, it's you. So you're taking away your viral video. That doesn't count then. If you were on Ellen, if they were going to have you on Ellen, right? They are not going to have the person that filmed it. They're going to have the person that's in the video. Just saying, they're not worried about who put it on the account. Huh?

It doesn't matter. Who's gone viral the least? Lunchbox. Amy just went viral again. What? For what? For what? What podcast clip we put up?

Why are you angry at her? She didn't even say what it was yet. It could have been her celebrating you and how good of a person you are. I doubt it. She never does that. Should she do it more? Yep. She put more videos of me up.

Okay. It's on our Feeling Things podcast accounts. And on TikTok it has $2.2 million. And on Instagram it has $1.4 million. Whoa. That's huge. Nice job. We love to see it.

So what are you guys talking about? And it's hell cussing. Well, Kat's a therapist. She was talking about some research that showed that cussing. tends to mean someone is willing to be more authentic with who they are, so you can trust someone who... What does I say about me? But then she also said this isn't like... Hey, what the F?

No, but it also doesn't, it's not a blanket statement. It makes me curse. F you. That means... I don't not cuss because I don't like cussing. I do it so I don't slip up and cuss in a place that I don't want to cuss. Right. And secondly, I didn't want to write jokes or books and insert curse words as a crush.

So that was all just not about me as a person. I don't think there's any more or less integrity with cursing or honesty. I think professionally I didn't feel like it was my best interest. Is she talking about that and you're a little stupid Epping podcast? No, but at the very end of the clip, she says just because you don't cuss it doesn't mean you're a liar. What if I say F yeah? That count? Yeah, well, that's the thing.

Like on TikTok where I guess we're reaching all these people that like don't, but all the comments, like there's 2,630 comments and most of them are. F yeah. Oh, that's funny. Or like, oh, I effing new this. Like every other. And so we're like, oh, and then Kat, she's a therapist. That's her profession. And so she doesn't really have the desire to go viral because it freaks her out.

Because she's like, oh, what if people take something the wrong way? And we hadn't sourced her research, like where she got it from. So she's like texting me. She's like, can you add this source to the caption? Because I need them to know, legit. So to source it, she said it came from Frank. we do give a damn the relationship between the relationship between profanity and honesty and that was where the research came from so she just because some people were like what what does

this mean stupid and she's like wait wait wait no no you can here's the rule about going viral never look at the comments what something goes viral because all that's happening is you're the platform you're on it then becomes a pedestal that's lifted and the higher your pedestal is lifted the more people see it the more people there are the more dumb people there are so it's just a numbers game If something goes viral, never look in the comments. Like right now, I'm going a bit viral myself. I got, even just this morning, New York Post did a story, E did a story, People Magazine did a story on me. And I refuse to get into the comments because I know the higher that the pedestal rises, the more people see it, the more people that see it, the more dumb people there are just in that people.

I think there's a percentage of dumb people regardless. But if you have a, if you have 50 people looking, probably got three dumb people. If you have 10 million people looking, then you've got 30,000 dumb people. people and they all want to like have something to say. So it's not that the more viral you get, the more dumb people there are like percentage wise. It's just the more people, the more people, the more dumb people. So that's what's up. So I've not looked at any comments about, because I posted a video yesterday and I was like, hey, got to get my feelings hurt. And it's mostly because I love Tom Bergeron and still love Tom Bergeron. And I watched the interview he did where he was like,

oh, Bobby winning. And I was like, that hurt my feelings a little bit. And I was like, man, I don't understand what I was supposed to do when I was not dancing with the stars because I wasn't like somebody who cheated or manipulated the rules or got in trouble like I literally just showed up wasn't that good got a lot better one and the end and like it was a real joyous time for me but every year I just get attacked mercifully mercifully mercilessly whatever the word is it's constant and so it doesn't bother you have to have thick skin to do this job and I have very thick skin. But when Tom Bergeron did, I was like, dang, I like Tom, that sucked. And so I posted a video. I was like, hey, my feelings are hurt. Um, whammy. And I'm going to send the Maribald

trophy back because I don't like looking at it. It doesn't make me feel good. And so, yeah, that's blown up. And it's kind of funny that it's blown up. So you like legit, for real, for real, mailed it back. It's gone. I wanted to be dramatic. It's how to be dramatic. What do you know if they send it back? Then keep it. Oh, so they, oh, okay. So they sent it back. keep it. That's what I'm thinking. Have you not heard the saying if you love something set it free? And if it comes back, then it's yours? I've heard it, but that's weird. No, you don't do that. You don't just let your dog out the front door. Usually they don't come back. Yeah, because I'm, I'm like, dang. Ellen comes back. Why do you? I didn't think you should send it back. Like, you deserve, you,

you earned that. So like, why send it back? It just doesn't feel good. When you see it, what do you? It doesn't feel good. So I was like, yeah, I'm going to send it back. Yeah. So you just put it in a box? I have it. Yeah. I have the actual box that they gave it to me in. Like, it fits perfectly. Oh. And so I, yeah, they've really, like, soured that from me. But I never said anything bad in the video about anybody. I don't know if you got to saw the video.

I did. You didn't say anything bad. Nothing. Love Mike. Well, you did say some people close to you have taken shots and I was like. That was you, Amy. It was definitely you. You know who you are.

Yep. What did I do? And if you're feeling guilty about it right now, it's you. You said you were close to me from the show. Oh, from the show. Oh, I thought you. You said people close to you. No, I didn't know who.

But you said people close to you. Somebody's feeling awfully guilty. No, I wanted to know because I don't know. I was like, I hope I haven't said anything. My point is that don't look at comments if something starts to blow up because you're just going to have people like, and I want to fight people when I get into comments because it's not real. And I don't mind confrontation in any aspect of life.

I don't search for it. But I'm also on the old Enneagram and Eight Challenger. So I love mixing it up. up. And so... So the eight and you mailed the trophy back? I think the titty baby and me mail the trophy bag. But the eight in me is like ready to challenge anybody here.

What number is that? I don't understand. I never heard of that one. No, it's 11. What never is? It really isn't that dramatic of a thing. I don't think it is. To me, it's not that dramatic. Oh, I was wondering if you talked to your therapist about it. No, because it's not that dramatic.

Again, I'm going to say a couple things. One, I've been on pain medicine. two have been holed up in my house. I'm sure that's affected. Seasonal depression's hit because now the weather's wrong. That's true. Yeah, so things hit differently. Every year, I just, for like two months,

regardless of who's on that show that is like the bad dancer, they don't really take it out on them as much as they always come back and take it out on me. So I open my feet and it's just constantly every year about this time. You know who sucked Bobby? You know who sucked Bobby? You know who didn't deserve to win? And I'm like, bro, I ain't do nothing. Your analogy of like, it's like the ninth grade dancers just picking on the sixth grade.

And shoving me in a locker over and over again. That was a good way to put it. Because, yeah, you're not traditionally one of them. No, I'm definitely in many ways. I'm not from L.A. I'm not an actor. I'm not traditionally. I live in the South.

Didn't know how to dance. But also, there was an advantage that I had of all of our listeners. And I don't think people get that. People are like, the people's champion. No, we have a very dedicated group of people that relate to us and roll with us. And that's what it was. And so, but also, I was. I watched all the videos back. I'm doing a series on my YouTube page, which is at Bobby Bones' channel.

I wasn't as bad as I thought I was because I never watched them back. And so, yeah, I sent it back. That's it. I don't like it made me feel. And what does she say? If it doesn't feel good, throw it out. Who says that? I don't know. The person on Netflix was like arranging stuff. Oh, Feng Shui? Yeah, well, no. Joy. Marie Condo. If it doesn't spark joy. Yeah, get rid of it. Okay, well, I don't think she meant something that, like, you worked really hard for it, that you earned. I still have that in my heart. Okay.

And I don't think that anything happened where I feel lesser. And I won that freaking show. And I won by the biggest margin between first and second place in the history of the show. And that's awesome. But, you know, it's a physical thing. And, you know, my contribution was, I'm going to get to set of my house, put in the box, mail it back. Dude, I don't even know where I sent it. I just found an address online and sent it to ABC.

Somebody's going to open a box in some room and be like, what the crap? The secretary? Like, what is this? Yeah. So, I have a. difficult question. All right. Bring it. Go for it. I know what you're going to ask.

Yeah. Well, you mentioned physical. And you got a mirrorball tattoo. I won the show. Okay. I didn't know if you were going to... I'm no problem with that. You're not going to turn it into like a teddy bear. No, I won the show. Okay. Well, I don't know he shipped the mirrorball. I'm not ashamed of losing the show.

There's nothing about me that is... I love it. You didn't lose, so you don't have to be ashamed. Well, I'm not ashamed of any part. I'm not ashamed of winning. It's a good point. I'm not ashamed of anything. It was awesome. I guess you don't see it. all the time.

No, it's not even that. If I had it on my face, I wouldn't get rid of. Well, I probably wouldn't have got it on my face. But I thought when you see the trophy, it doesn't make it feel good. Yeah, it just sits and it's like a, it's a trophy and trophies are supposed to like remind you of like something good. Okay. That doesn't. Okay.

And so it did. It doesn't anymore. Okay. So. You can change it into money ball. You really had to. Yeah, that's true. I'm not changing it.

Or like eight. It's a part of my life. Eight ball. What? Like a pool table. I'm now selling drugs. Or you could. Turn it into.

I, but I, after I posted the video, because I rarely watch anything back before I posted, which sometimes is good, sometimes is bad. I went and watched it back. And I was like, oh, I don't hate what I said. I don't think in any way I came off as aggressive or mean or that that show did anything to me. I said, I loved it. It's just since then there's been some of the joy that's been taken away because

every time I see anything about it, it's people just bashing me. And I'm like, I don't like that. Like, I did nothing. I didn't fight to be on the show. I didn't try to be on the show. They asked me to be on the show. They encouraged me heavily to be on the show. because I was on American Idol at the time

and I did it and I loved the freaking experience. It was awesome and the people were awesome and Tom Bergeron was my favorite person on the whole show. That's why it hurt because he was like the guy that was like my guy. And so when he's out going ooh and then I saw him try to like pivot out and he was like well I was saying the judge it

no he didn't say that. But it doesn't matter. I still love Tom Bergeron. I think he's a freaking goat. And so I have nothing bad to say about anybody or anything. I just don't like how it made me feel so I sent it back I had a message it wasn't that anybody did anything

wrong it was that my feelings were hurt that was it so that's what's up I hope they send it back I don't know who's going to get it and I think about that now I laugh out loud someone just getting a box and going let's okay another box

what the crap you don't see that every day we have a couple voicemails about it and I don't want to spend a lot of time on this because I wasn't going to address it at all but I feel like on this show I must because these are our people. Give me one, Ray. I was calling to see if you regret your mirrorball trophy tattoo, or at least the word miraball.

I saw your post on Instagram today that you returned the mirror ball. I also only watched Dancing with the Stars, the one season that you were on it, and voted religiously for you. So I hate that you actually had to return it. So just wondering if you regret the tattoo now. Thanks. Obviously, no, we just talked about that. Also, I didn't have to return it. If they would have said you have to return it, I'd have been pissed.

it wouldn't have returned it. I'd have taken a hammer to it just to prove a point. No, it's great. I feel good about everything. My feelings were just hurt. And that doesn't spark joy. And like my friend Marie Kondo says, get rid of crap that makes you feel weird about dancing. She said that. Famous quote from her. Yeah. Let me do one more. Number two. I just saw the Instagram post about Dancing with the Stars. And I'm so mad. You won that fair and square. I hope you wiped your ass with that trophy before you went it back. And when they come crawling back, wanting to suck up and be on your show, because you've got 10 times the fans that they could ever have,

you better say no. Nah, they're not going to suck up. Also, I don't dislike anyone. I don't dislike Tom Bergeron. I love Tom Bergeron. It just hurt my feelings. Sometimes people you like hurt your feelings. And I was like, I'm going to express how I feel.

And I did. And so I appreciate everybody. But I don't look at the comments. Mike D got a text yesterday from. Jody Messina. She was like, I was so upset. I appreciate that. My feelings were hurt. She said, let them know I love them. Yeah, my feelings were hurt.

But not because of what was said, but because of who said it. But that's it. But I'm good. Like, there's nothing about me now that is like, I'm going to, I got a score to that's at all. My score has been settled for a long time, but it is weird. Every year about this time, it's bash Bobby season on TikTok. And it's not bash Bobby season on TikTok or Instagram for anything that I said,

because that I would understand. I say a lot of stuff and people can get irritated they can have different opinions. But I freaking want a show and didn't cheat. That's a weird thing to be hated for because you did well.

That's the weirdest thing to be hated for. And you did it so well that you won by more than anybody in the history of the show has ever won. That's a weird thing to be hated for. And then also I've been on paint pills for a few days. There's that. A lot of factors at play here.

Yeah, that's what's up. You guys have anything else on that? There you go. No. Other than I do like the quote, if it comes back to you, you keep it. I will keep it if it comes back.

I like the better quote, wipe your with it. Yeah, that's pretty good. If I were angry, also, can you imagine someone getting it. Let's play this that. Play that. No, I can't.

They're like, okay, open the box. What is this? Like, it's like a furry gold box. They're like, what a mirror ball? What's the heck? I think I saw something about this at people. Is this that? Oh, it is.

Bobby bones and Sharna Mirro. Why is there poop on it? Oh, he wiped this. Yep. He did it. No part of me is angry. A little part of me had hurt feelings, and that's okay. But I appreciate everybody.

Okay. How about... I feel like I got a lot of stuff to talk about. Let's go around the... Everything's off my microphone. My foot's on. Imagine if I'm leaning back. That would have been terrible.

Yeah, that would hit the ground. Just let me beat, people. I know I'm not like you today. We watch another couple, yeah, episodes of that show. Called? On their fault? Yeah. We talk about that?

Yeah. Yeah. All right. Amy. So, speaking of watching things, I've been watching on Hulu, the scripted out version of the Murdof family. Oh, yeah. It's always, it's always a chance. Like, scripted is a tough thing to watch because it could be done so corny.

Yeah, I think they've done a really good job with it. Which one are you watching? I watch the documentary. It's called... There's one with Patricia Arquette that I started watching is really good. Yes, that's the one I'm watching. That's good. Murdole, death in the family.

And it's Murdoch. Murdoch, yes, sorry. It's spelled Murdoch. But yeah, it's Murdoch. And then his name is spelled like Alex, but it's Alec. I don't know. Weird. But Death and the Family, that's the drama series on Hulu.

I recommend it. Even if you've watched the documentaries on it, it gives you a little bit more. And obviously they take some of their own things. Like there's creative liberty to some stuff just because they're trying to be entertaining. So you have to keep that in mind. But Buster Murdoch is the kid that is still alive. So the dad is in jail for murdering the mom and the other son.

Their other son, Buster, I was reading an article on People.com this morning that he literally still thinks his dad is innocent. Like, he does not think his dad shot his mom and brother. Can I do counterpoint? Sure. Sometimes we find out that because of what the media had let us to think we were wrong. I don't know. I don't think I'm wrong. Also, I got to admit, I never really followed the case, except for you guys talking about it. Like, it was one that started, and it's not that I didn't care. It was just so beyond me. I didn't feel like getting super invested. But there are times now, and I'm starting to second guess everything, just a little more. Okay, true. and go, man, there have been some real instances of me being wrong.

Like, I don't think Michael Jackson molested young boys. Okay. I don't. Yeah. I just, I don't. And I did for a long time because of how he was portrayed. I think he was weird. And I think he was weird because of how he was raised.

I don't think he molested young boys. Okay. And I think I was just like, yeah, for sure he did it. But that's just an example. And there's like four or five of those. And he might have and probably did or maybe. I mean, because to your point, and this dad's no saint, like, he's horrible dad. Like, was a horrible lawyer.

Stole from the law firm? Yes, that's what I mean. That doesn't mean. I've had to lay back in my chair. No, no, no. Do you want in a stool or is that cool with you? Can I get a microphone? You want to go, like, on the stage and the chair? To hold.

That would do that. I'll just sit back and chill. Are you cool with the desk, though, because we can get a stool as high. Oh, yeah, that'd be, well. Let's try that. That's cool. Sorry, if I don't do this, I have to go home. I got a bunch of work to finish up today.

Yeah, you need to elevate. So I guess my thing is, yeah, you're right. Like, just because he was a really crappy person doesn't mean he murdered them. Yeah. But then this is a part of the story I totally forgot about from the documentary. It's like, I totally forgot that he was so concerned that his son Buster wasn't going to get any money. Like, they'd be, he'd have nothing, that he set up with a former client of his to shoot him while he was on the side of the road changing a tire. But the point is he was supposed to kill him.

But then he didn't die. He got shot in the head and didn't die. so his son Buster didn't get the $10 million life insurance pay out. And then he still got shot? Yeah. And the guy that he hired to shoot him also now in jail, I'd be like. So what's the story? Because I remember the boat accident.

I remember all that. But what's the story of the dad killing mom and son? Okay. So I think that, I mean, the dad was on speaking of pain pills. The dad was on so many. He sent his merry ball back? He was on so. Many pain pills.

And then he was drinking with it as well. Obviously his life, his life was in shambles anyways. Like he was a dirty businessman to begin with. And then it's almost like his son getting in the boating accident just was like the straw that broke the camels back. Because everything just started kind of coming to life. Yeah, I think what happened according to Ray, because Ray was all in on this. But I think they were doing discovery during that trial. And he was like, I'm going to get found out.

So he had to kill his son. so that way they would stop that trial like it would go away like boom that's over and then is the show good the show is good scripted yeah yeah again always risky to make a scripted show

but there are different ones and the one with Patricia Arquette is really good okay and one of the guys that's not this one with Patricia Arquette and the guy that was in what's that weird movie we just watched on Netflix about and House of Dynamite House of Dynamite

not weird great Okay. I'll fight to the death. Sure. That's the hill I'm going to die on. I don't know his name, but there's a guy on House of Dynamite. And I was like, why does this guy look familiar? Why does this guy familiar?

He's playing Alec Murdoch. Oh. The Dad? Or Murdoch. Yeah, the dad. He plays the dad. But his hair is so like red and white, like orange and yellow. Like it doesn't.

He's brown in the House of Dynamite. So anyway, I realize like, oh, there's a tie in there. But yes, I recommend the show. And then also just curious what's going on with Buster. And also the housekeeper is coming out with a book. She is? I don't know when it's going to be released, but I just saw on the news that she said the moment she knew he did it. She didn't go viral.

One of the old housekeepers did. This is the new housekeeper. Okay. Because that's another thing. She died too. During all of this, a housekeeper died. Oh, there's a lot of shady stuff that happened. My only point is, and listen, he could be guilty of sin.

My only point is I'm not always just going to believe it because the media makes me believe it. Well, he went to trial and a jury convicted. him so I would say yeah yeah yeah like that part I think it's likely that he did it but you're right because in the documentary you even see a moment where a journalist was trying to pin the murder of this um homosexual kid in the like you said homosexual weird you said it like somebody from designing women back in the 90s I was gonna say gay guy but then I felt like are you a homosexual homo okay maybe they reference like Daisy Carter saying homosexual So they were trying to pin that on that the Murdox were part of a cover-up for how this kid died,

and I don't know that that was the case. But you start to believe that just because they're such a shady family that they were. Like there's now, and Scott Peterson was found guilty, but there is now like real stuff that makes you think he didn't do it. I don't know. How? Hey, you're a pawn by the media. Or you're a pawn by the media.

I'm not a pawn because I don't believe anything. He's guilty. He's guilty. He's guilty. But I fully just saw him on the magazine and was like, that dude for sure is guilty. Yeah, there's been some new stuff. There's been like new, like docu stuff that's come out. I think it was him.

He's the one that went fishing. Yep. And then they found her body in the lake. Yeah. Can I read, Mike, I'm going to read this. It's kind of hard to read this leaning back. The Los Angeles Innocence Project, and they don't get involved with things that they don't feel passionately about.

We know this from a few different cases. Have petitioned in April of 2025 presenting new evidence. And they argued that Peterson's 2004 conviction was based on circumstantial evidence that should be overturned, the petition claims that new evidence suggests Lacey Peterson was still alive after Scott Peterson left home on the day she disappeared and that a series of burglaries were linked to her death. The petition also accuses the original investigation of having flaws and withholding evidence.

And if they find that's the case that there was evidence withheld so they could, for whatever political reason, get a guilty verdict, throw it all out and start all over. Wow. Because there were burglaries, right? Yeah. Okay. I mean, maybe.

But people are also found guilty and they're not guilty at times. too because of reasons like we're not given all the evidence in. Look at almost what happened in that Massachusetts case with the snow car. When they called the big snow car murder? Oh yeah. What was her They would have found her so guilty. She would have been guilted out of her freaking mind had people not said, I don't think she's right and I'm going to come work pro bono for her and keep her out of prison. You don't think they were all working against her? What was her name, Karen Reed? Karen Reed. You don't think Karen Reed was going to be so guilty had people not with crazy resources, got involved, not charged her, and said,

we've got your back. And twice. Yeah, she'd have been a victim of this. And we'd have been like, well, if she's guilty, guilty prison, she did it, murdered them. Some people think she's... Yeah, some people do. Sure, I don't.

You know the saying. But do you understand what I'm saying. I do know what you're saying. But there is a saying, like, if a spouse is dead, look at the one that's breathing. She watches too many movies at Hallmark. That doesn't rhyme.

So I don't like it. I understand it. I understand it. Can you imagine you start every case like that, like, all right? Oh, you're 100% of person to look at the spouse. If the spouse is dead. Look at the person who's still breathing.

Well, Chuck, I can't remember that because it don't rhyme. Can we do a glove? Alex, we fit in a quid in there or something. I don't know if that's the exact saying, but I did hear it on a date line. She was arrested in charge of manslaughter, motor vehicle homicide, leaving the scene of a murder, which caused death. Again, we all would have felt the same way about her as we do about Scott Peterson is about this murder guy because she'd have been found kill.

and we'd have thought, well, we just trust the jury because they know. But it wasn't about the jury. It was about the evidence they didn't even share it. That trial shine light on inside jobs by the freaking police department and how corrupt they were. And you don't think that's happening everywhere. You don't think Mark Furman would have been so corrupt with OJ withholding a course. And a lot of that's political.

Like you can't go and launch under this and lose. So I don't believe the media all the time. They just want clicks. And sometimes the media are a trick because of, evidence that isn't shared. And why? Well, corruption. That's my point. He probably did it, though. I come back at the end. He still probably did it. But yeah, I'm just not fully on board with everybody being guilty now. So that's what's up. I don't think Michael Jackson touched the boys. Is that controversial? You know who else says that? Candace Owens? I think I saw her talking about, like, Michael Jackson

did not molest those boys. He was weird. He settled. Because I don't think, think he ever like law. He settled. So is that what the if, oh, potentially, is that what the alleged victims are after is money? Oh, I would say for sure. Okay. In that case, uh, let's see, Michael Jackson was acquitted of all counts in 2005 criminal trial. So he was acquitted in criminal court. People don't say that whenever they're defends. I don't, I didn't know Michael Jackson. I like did two shows with them. Just two. No, I don't know. I didn't know Michael Jackson at all. So he was acquitted.

And people still associate because of what the media did to us. He's, oh, he for sure was a kid toucher. Separate civil lawsuits have had various outcomes, including recent legal challenges against his estate. He was investigated for child abuse in 93. No criminal charges were filed after the accuser's family reached a million dollars civil settlement. If somebody touched your kid, don't you probably want him to go to jail to?

Yes. and so him civilly after because you can sue somebody civilly while they're in jail right jail is the priority then money anyway that's what's up I don't believe anything anymore don't believe anything

that's all that's the message here Murdoch probably did it though that's a crazy story man yeah I still feel like I'm all hard things people things probably happen I'm just in general in my life I'm not assigned to things being for sure anymore

because there are so many is of me being wrong. Either with me just having the opinion or me being led to opinions by people that I I say people, organizations that I trust. Which in the end, these organizations are only trying to get clicks. These organizations are only trying to sell revenue,

make revenue based on ad, sales, and that's all. It's like the news. The news isn't the news. The news needs to be super sensational so you watch so they get ratings so they can sell commercials. So they're going to do the most sensational thing possible.

You know what the story of as them as a family, the Murdox as a family. Like, it makes me think of as a mom, what would I do if that was my son in that situation that clearly drank a lot. And... Back to Murdoch? Yeah, the Murdoch family. Is it Murdoch?

Murdoch. But it's spelled Murdoch. Yeah, because I never know how to say it, so I really don't commit to it. Yeah, Murdoch. And then... It was like Morgan with Bone Apple Teat. Yeah. But it makes me wonder, like, in that moment, I think that I would have to...

he's like at the hospital trying to convince other families to, like don't say who was driving. Like he's trying to instantly go into lawyer mode and cover up for his son when what he should have been doing was checking his son into rehab. Yeah, but we should have cut in. I agree. I know. I'm just thinking I hope I would be the type of parent to recognize,

okay, my son clearly has a drinking problem, but they just still carried on drinking with their kids. Well, they were more about covering stuff up than actually like raising. Yeah. You know, or like correcting things. I don't know enough about it. I just, he probably did it. But I don't believe he did.

He probably did. But he probably did. Lunch box. Yeah, there was this 21-year-old girl. She was in Africa and she was a volunteer at a safari place and she was leading a safari. There's one leader in the front and one in the back and they're on horseback. And she's in the back and they are just going down a trail. And there was a lion waiting in the bush, jumps out and bites her by the back of the neck,

rips her off the horse. Oh, tries to carry her away. Yes, and then he finally just lets go and leaves her And she has a broken arm and she had a stroke while she was in the hospital But the doctor said she was going to make a 100% recovery Were they they're doing safari? Were they hunting at all? No, it doesn't say they were hunting

What would you? I just wouldn't go on a horse in that environment I think you probably trust the people that are normally in that environment And they're like, yeah, no problem, nobody ever gets tagged Like those big trucks, you know, I'm cool with that unfamiliar environment. You trust people that are familiar, and I'm sure that's the case here. And the lion got her. I wonder why. A lion just doesn't see something and go and just for fun, go attack, scared, hurt. Hungry. No, hungry. He would eat her. He would eat her.

He maybe just thought he was playing. Well, you should see the four marks on the back of her neck are just like, wow. Yeah. I wonder if lions are like sharks. Like when they're like, they're hungry, they see a human. They bite it and they're like, oh, that's a human. I don't want that. Could taste bad. Yeah, because like sharks do not like drinking spoil milk. Like that milk looks good. Let me have it. Oh, God.

I didn't know. Oh, God. I don't know. Or, you know, all of our blood is different. Like maybe they don't like a negative. Eddie, you're up. Yeah, so there's a guy. It's a funny story.

There's a guy that he's married and his in-law, every time he goes to his in-law's house, her parents make them sleep in separate beds. And they've been married for like a couple of years. So the husband's like, you know what? Fine. Every time they come to our house, I'm going to make them sleep in separate beds. beds. So they came and visited and he's making him sleep in separate beds. And the dad's kind of thinks it's funny. The father-in-law is like, that's kind of funny. Like, I made them do that. That's cool.

But the wife is the one that's, like, upset about it. Like, why are you doing that to my parents? I like a good joke. He's not joking. He's upset. No, it is a joke. It's kind of a joke. It's kind of a joke. It's like, ha-ha. But also, they've been married for a few years and even when they're married, why do they have to sleep in? I mean, they're Lebanese. I don't know if it's a culture thing. Oh, maybe. But he's not Lebanese. Yeah.

And he was just like, fine, I'll do it to them. I like it. I like it because I don't feel like it's coming from a malicious place. And his father-in-law is like... Eventually they're going to sleep in the same bed. Eventually, they're going to be like, you're back. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're back, man.

All right, Morgan. So there's a video of Cynthia and Ariana Grande at Universal for Wicked. It's the new premiere of that movie. And this fan, like, runs onto the carpet and, like, kind of attacks Ariana. Attack or is aggressive love. Super aggressive love. Got it. Better way to put it.

But Cynthia like intervenes and everybody's like really applauding Cynthia because she kind of acted as a security guard and pushed this fan off of Ariana. But like so what's crazy about this though is this guy is known for doing this. Oh, it's crazy you can get around close enough to be able to do this. Yeah. So he's done it to cold play. He's done it to the weekend. He did it at the Olympics. Sounds like lunch rock literally.

That's how he sees every celebrity. That's how he goes. scream. But if he's physically touching people, I'm surprised that he gets close enough to anyone. Like there's not like, hey, we're doing a red carpet. It's like Chris. Chris, we got to watch out for Chris, security. This is a picture of him. It's like when you write a bad check and they put your name up at the gas station. Like, don't take a check from whoever. I'm surprised that he's still if he's known for it. He posts the videos on social media. I mean, after they happen. But like, he did it at the Olympics. He did it. He was a streaker on a big soccer game. Like,

he's doing all of these things. And there's full videos of him. But he's still able to do it. Yeah, that's weird. Also, I think if I were sent, let's say it was Amy and I, and we're walking red carpet together, and someone comes on and just runs up to Amy and is like, I love you so much. I think I'd

be like, oh, you love her? Fine. You're all jealous. Yeah, why are you, why? That's why I was thinking, I was like, why would the other lady jump in front? Well, because she's a good human and she's like, doesn't want her friend to be attacked by anyone. But I think a little bit of me, be like, man, why don't I get attacked? This sucks.

I'll do one final story. the last penny ever was minted yesterday. They have now stopped making pennies. Stupid. If you have pennies, I'm not even saying hold on to them. They're too many for them to be valuable. There's a ton.

Yeah, there's a ton. But they made the last penny. I'm not a penny guy. I don't have any pennies. If I see pennies, I don't care. I'm out of quarters. I'm in. Dimes?

Okay, I'll keep it in my wallet. But nickels are too big. If nickels were bigger than dimes, I would keep them. If a nickel meant 10 cents, I would keep it. But a nickel's too big for me to keep around when I'm already debating on keeping around a dime. Yeah. Yeah. More value of the dime.

You're trying to find value in the ridiculous thing that I'm saying. So was it true that the penny costs like three cents to make? I heard that. I don't know. And so that's not, that's more than. I probably believe it. Who knows, man? I don't believe anything.

I don't know anything. So although that was kind of interesting. That was the last ever penny that was minted. made. All right. That penny's got to be worth something. In other news. Give us some other news.

Y'all have to RSVP to our work Christmas party by today. Okay. I RSDB no. Hey, Scuba, can you get us, Amy and I get charged to park today? I already fixed it for you. You're good now. Thank you. But Fick, do we get, like, is it they reimbursing our cards?

You get a credit. They're going to send you a gift card in the mail to you use for other parking purchases coming up. You're out of your mind. That's a joke. They're not sending us a card for a part. Nice little Visa Mastercard. That will never use.

That's funny. Bobby, you're covered now, so you're fine. And then Amy, they're going to take care here as well. Yeah, I pulled in today. I was like, you've been charged $50 to park here. First day, I've been here since that surgery. And I was like, what the heck? So I started crying.

Yeah. And then I gave away my car. I sent my car back to the dealership. I just send everything back now. If I'm in a bad mood, so I send everything back. I send my wife back to Oklahoma. Send the mirror ball back to ABC. Everything now.

Everything. I'm just going to send everything. Everything back. Well, you talking about that made me check because, yeah, I had been at your house. But then yesterday afternoon, I had to come up here for one hour. One hour. Did you stay at my house for a long time yesterday? No, I left.

Day before yesterday. No. That's not true. I saw you with my wife in the gym. I was here for two minutes, a long time. Why are you lying? You stay everywhere a long time. That's why I asked.

No, no, because she was having a workout. I didn't even know you were there. I thought when I walked through, I saw you. And I was like, Amy's in the gym. Yeah, but I just was saying. out with them. No, no, no, no, no. I just popped in because I also know who she was with, so I was just saying hi real quick. But it wasn't a long time. But then yesterday, I did have to come up here only for one hour. And then after you started talking about that this morning,

I went and looked at my email and that's when I realized, $50. I was here for one hour. Oh, I think that's the hour. Yeah. That's crazy. It's a lot for an hour. All right. Everybody good? Good. Parking business. In the what business? We should get in the parking business. Yeah, it's a good one. You got to buy property. The property is the expensive. I'm parking lot.

And if you want good property in a place where people park is very expensive. All right. Never mind. No, no. I'll keep working on my other ideas. None of us said you shouldn't. Well, I'm not really doing. We just presented more texture, more context to just getting in the parking business.

Okay. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what I'm saying. Yep, that's me. Clipper Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football

On a recent episode of the podcast Money and Wealth with John Ho'Brien, I sit down with Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money. What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth to the people when they're no longer here? We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth, starting with the mindset shifts. Too many of us were never, ever taught. Financial education is not always about, like, I'm going to get rich. That's great. It's about creating an atmosphere for you to be able to take care of yourself and leave a strong financial legacy for your family.

If you've ever felt you didn't get the memo on money, this conversation is for you to hear more.

Bobby Bones Show. We have some listeners about to come and sit with us for a minute. They, I think, bid a bunch and a charity.

I don't know which charity. I'm, I'm be honest, there's like four or five charities that I work with, and I'm like, you can bid whatever you want. They can come make out with lunchbox. They can do it. And they usually just pick sitting in on the show. Not make out a lot of us. No, that one has never been chosen.

Interesting. Oddly enough. Does that surprise you? Yeah, it does surprise me. And, I mean, we've already had an interaction with these people that was very alarming. Come on in. Come on in. And disturbing.

We're on right now. So come on in. Alarming and disturbing? Yeah, our interaction with them in the green room. Why was it alarming and disturbing? Well, because we walk. He's talking about you guys, by the way. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So we walk in and I walk in. I'm like, hey, I'm lunchbox. Hi. Amy comes in, or Morgan comes in after me, shakes the guy's hand, and then she goes, I'm Leah, and Morgan goes, I'm Morgan, she's just, Morgan, you're mad, you're mad that she didn't do that to you. And she breaks out and gives her a big old hug and Amy is like, oh, that's funny, huh, and then Amy introduces herself and she got the handshake and Amy goes, oh. Oh, you were also offended.

So Amy was offended too. Don't even act like you were. No, my response was a joke. I was mimicking lunchbox. Like, I, that's totally fine. I was leaning into the joke. Okay, I would like to sit, first of all, guys, I'll, let me show you this. There's a reason I didn't get up. I have a cast on my leg, so I didn't get to come out and I can't even lift my cast up. I know. Yeah.

Chris and Leah, right? Okay. So, and you can hold your microphones up to your mind. Sorry, I didn't get to come out and say hi. I can't walk. So, this is my first time meeting you. And Leah, what you just heard. It was 100% accurate.

She'll back it up. It was 100% accurate. It is. No, no, no. We're not going to bullrun her. We're going to let her talk. Leah, what would you say happened out there? Well, I've been working with Morgan and communicating back and forth.

Oh, so you have a relationship kind of. Got it. That makes sense. We've been talking back and forth. And I'm not typically a hugger, but, you know, like, I was excited to see her. That's awesome. And I typically am not a hugger either, so there you go. I don't even touch people anymore.

Do you guys notice this in pictures? Oh, like when you take pictures with them? With anybody. Yeah, yeah. see that. Like, and it's become a bit awkward too where, like even yesterday, I did a couple interviews yesterday and I immediately put my hands in my pockets. I just don't ever want to be in a picture and someone's like, Bobby touched me creepily. So I stopped taking, I stopped touching people in pictures forever ago, right? You can't ever be too careful. So if you guys come in and

you're betting on me touching you, I got bad news for you. That ain't going to happen. Lee, are you fan of the show? Are you familiar with the show at all? A little bit, never? You can say no. Honestly, I didn't know about the show until I bought the prize. Okay. And then why would you bid? I'm sorry. Well, there's a bunch. No, there's a bunch on it.

It was a whole thing. It was a whole Nashville experience. Nashville. Oh, that's why you did it. That's why you guys had like you didn't know who I was. That makes more sense. Okay, guys, now we're starting to put it together because I was really like, I mean, Morgan, I mean, let's be real, compared to Amy and I, not even close to our level.

She really is going to check out the show now. She's like, I have never felt more well. I'm in a show. No, but now it makes sense is that they never heard of the show until they bid on it. Where are you guys from? California. Yeah, like northern? Central. Salinas, Monterey. Monterey, Carmel.

Very familiar here. I love that area. It's beautiful out there. It's gorgeous. Yeah, it's hard to beat. Did you guys always live there? Or was that at like a destination? Once we get rich, we're going to move there? Well, I've always lived there. He was born there. I'm from Anchorage, Alaska. No way. You're that one?

I'm that. People say that to me about coming out of our. Arkansas, like if I go anywhere else, they're like, you're from Arkansas? I've never met anybody from Arkansas. You and Bill Clinton. That's right. And, you know, I don't know him, but I don't ever get, yeah, yeah, I'll bill. You know what? I'll stop there. And Johnny Cash? That's true. Well, no, we don't need to do it. John Daly. John Daly. Do people say that to you often? Like, wow, you're from Alaska. I've never met anybody from Alaska. A lot. And why did you come down into the continental United States? My mom worked for a mortgage company in the 80s and it went out of business and so she was offered a position in California.

And how old were you then? 19. Okay. So, wow, your real memories from childhood are in Alaska. What is it like growing up in Alaska? Is it daylight 23 hours a day? It is. And how do you, is it all dark curtains and wearing sleep masks or how does that work?

Yeah. There's a lot of blackout curtains sold in Alaska. That's crazy. It's, I think, the one state now that I haven't. been to. I've toured and gone just about every. I know. It's just far. It's a destination. Yeah. It's like you got to fly to Chicago and then that's not even, and that's the quick flight. And then you got to fly another six hours. And when you get there, there may not even be light. And so then you can't even do anything outside. When it's dark the whole time. In the winter.

Yeah. How do you, can you just go to sleep at any time and it feels normal? You know, you just get used to it. That's what you're, I grew up in that. Moose just walking around? Yeah. Good question. Dude, that's crazy. Yeah, good question. Polar bears? Nope. Not just polar bears. That's a different part of the world. Yeah, that's not. They're in Alaska. They're like way, but they're like way. Not in the city.

Oh, got it. Got it. Got it. They're not at the ATM, bro. But moose are? Oh, yeah. Really? And they're massive, right? They are pretty big. Because when I think of Bullwinkle, the cartoon, not much bigger than like the warden or the Mountie or whatever. But in real life, they're like bigger than a car. Oh, yes. They're huge.

Would they ever just be crossing the road? All the time. That's crazy. That is crazy. Do they allow you to moose hunt in Alaska? Yeah. Oh, they do. Definitely.

Is there a season? I'm sure. Man, that's crazy. It's a lot of meat, a moose. Yeah, like you could feed a family for like a winter if you cut it, right? What about the salmon? Like, I see salmon a lot. Like, Alaskan salmon.

Halibate. The halibates. We don't curse on this show, sir. Oh. No, yeah. So, do you go up with her ever to Alaska? Only once. It was about, gosh, 20 years ago now. What was it like for you being a California guy up in Alaska?

It was cool. The one thing that Leah has always said to me about being in Alaska is sometimes you'll be somewhere and you have the thought that nobody else, another humans never stepped in this spot. Never going to have that feeling in California. That's true. Yeah, everyone's been there. That's true. I really like, because I've been to Monterey.

I've played, like I've done a theater there doing stand-up, and then I came and I did the Celebrity Golf Tournament. at Pebble Beach. And so all that area, it's so nice. And it's like temperate. Which is kind of chilly a little bit at times. Yeah, I mean, last week we had an 85 degree day. I think it was Sunday. And then we'll get down to the 40s.

You ever see Craig Kilbourne walking around? No. Clint Eastwood one time. We played golf right beside Clint Eastwood. He's like the mayor. He was the mayor in the 80s. Yeah. Yeah.

And he's lived there for a... We talked to someone who said that they almost hit him with her car. He was at the grocery store in the parking lot. But he was just like just living normal life. Yeah. Yeah. And so you grew up there. I did. That's like somebody who grows up in 90210. It feels like to me.

Well, Salinas is, so is agriculture. It's 20 minutes from Monterey, Carmel, Pebble Beach, and it's agriculture region. A lot of the fresh vegetable, spinach, strawberries, artichokes come out of there for the entire nation, actually. It's a little bit different demographic, a socioeconomic.

I didn't get out to the artichoke farms. Oh. No, next time, I can definitely set that up. Are you an artichoke guy? I'm not. I mean, I love artichokes. I'm an accountant. Oh, are you asking you if he liked artichoke or he's an artichoke farmer?

Yeah, what did you mean by that? I just wanted to know where he took me. That's kind of just an open question to see where he took me. No, no, I'm not a farmer. So you guys are, what have you done anything in Nashville yet? We just got in yesterday. Yeah? So the big event yesterday was we were standing with Leon Rhymes getting luggage.

At the airport. At the airport. At the airport. Did you hear the new stories about people think she has a boob job? I did not hear that. And I was like, people get off her back. What did you guys think when you were there? Did you notice?

Easy. I would have checked it out for you, though, if I would have known. Just thought it was unfair. People were, like, beating her up over it. He's like, of course I didn't notice. I wasn't looking at that. Hey, but, hey, share with them what you did notice. About their luggage.

Oh, yeah. Not to be judgmental, but. Yeah, be judgmental. We love being judgmental. She didn't have matching luggage. I would think, okay, she's flying commercial. Fine. most celebrities do, but didn't have matching luggage.

I thought that was strange. What do you mean? He thought that Leanne and Eddie being both famous people would have matching luggage. I don't know, Eddie. That's cool. Yes, they were together. Was anyone taking pictures with them? No.

You'll see that Nashville, probably while you're here, Nashville, because so many famous people live here, for the most part, super respectful of famous people. There's a time and a place, and if they do, they'll go up and be like, hey, do you mind? but I totally am not surprised that nobody bothered them at the airport. Yeah, it's funny. At Carmel, where we're from is very similar. You see Clint Eastwood, people don't go up to them. Different celebrities come up from L.A. It's very low-key.

Kind of the culture? It is. Leave people alone. Yes. Let him do their thing. Who else have you seen up there? Oh, gosh, I don't know. Just give me one.

Give me like a great celebrity. Brad Pitt. Oh, that's cool. He bought it like a $40 million castle kind of thing. That's amazing. He bought a castle up there? I think it was Brad Pitt. Yes.

Okay. I'll spread room. What other Brad can buy a castle up there? Brad. Who's the guy from everybody loves Raymond? Not him though, right? Yeah. So what else are you guys going?

Are you coming to the Opry? We are looking forward to it. That'd be awesome. So Eddie and I are playing. I think Kelsey Ballerini's playing. You got a good Friday night show. Ashley Cook's playing. It's tough because most Friday nights or Saturday nights, the artists that are big

are out touring. This is one of those rare Friday nights where they're massive artists and then us. But it's a good one. They knew they could get us on a Friday night. They can get us any night. Yeah, they can just call us at any time. You're going to like that because we'll bring you backstage with us and we'll...

I would say I'd give you the whole tour. I can't walk is what's so unfortunate. I can give him the tour. You were talking. I don't know if it was yesterday I was listening and you're worried about how you're going to do the show. Yeah, on drugs. Yeah, on pain pills. Hello.

School or a walker or a... I don't. What do you think? Do you think I should roll out in a wheelchair or is that too much? I don't think it's too much. I think you should get one of those knee thingsies. I have. That's what I have. I've been on that.

It's like a prosthetic leg. But he has the peg though, not the wheel. No, I was the little scooter with, you put your knee on. Okay, I have a scooter. I do have, I have all three things. I have crutches. I have the peg leg and I have the scooter. Now, my wife has implemented rules at our house that we can't wear shoes in the house.

because if you're walking around all outside and then you start walking inside all the stuff from outside's on the floor everywhere and she's like I don't think we should wear shoes so I'm like great and if I use that scooter outside and then I bring it back in the house it's like a shoe

I gotta leave it at the door and it's pretty much my means of transportation in the house and I don't want to buy a second one because it was kind of a beast to put together so now what would you do after hearing that stupid story? Get wheel covers

Do they make wheel covers for those? Sure, why not? Do you want to make me some wheel covers? What else are you guys going to do while you're here? You know, we don't really have plans. We're definitely going to check out Broadway and... Go hard. Go hard tonight.

Like shots. Do a shot at every one of the bars, right? That's what everybody does that comes to town. Really? Yeah. So you have to do that. Yeah, you have to. We're getting a little, maybe a little old for that.

I don't know. There is a walk, like the Nashville celebrity walk. Oh. Right? The Walk of Fame? Yeah, that's what it is, a Walk of Fame. Where, like, different stars have a walk.

Yeah. Lunchbox is super upset about the Walk currently. Well, I just wondered because that Old Dominion got a star on the Walk of Fame this week. And I'm like, are they really that big? Do you guys know country music at all? A little bit. Yeah. Do you know Old Dominion?

He's upset that they got a star. Wow. I just, I don't know if they're one of the, they're good. They put out music. I don't know how many albums they put out, but a lot. And they have some hits, Hotel Key, One Man Band, any other ones I'm missing? Yeah, a lot. Like eight.

Oh, break up with her? Yeah. Is that it? Snap back. No, that's not it. They have a lot. Snap back, yeah. Who would you put in their place?

Well, I'm not even necessarily their place. I'm just saying, are they one of the greatest country artists of all time? Like, are they one to put. They have 125 different. 112. Okay. 100, thank you. 112 different stars currently on the Walk of Fame and he's upset that they got one.

I just didn't know. if they're one of the top 112 artists to ever grace country music. I was just asking, you know what I mean? Like, it just caught me off guard? Is it weird to you all that he would get mad at something like that? Like, angry. Is it weird to you that he would get mad after you saw him get mad

that you didn't know who he was? It all kind of tracks, right? That's true. Yeah. When do you guys go home? Monday. So do you have more plans other than Opry tomorrow night? No, we have dinner reservations on Saturday.

but otherwise we're going to play it by year. That's fun. That's the best. The food scene is incredible. I hadn't realized that it's a fairly recent thing, apparently, in Nashville the last maybe five or six years. So we're excited to check out some of the eating establishments, the restaurants. The food scene is amazing astric. Because there really are some great places and there are some great chefs that now live here. But some of the places that aren't so good try to piggyback off that.

And like, oh, we're all so good. Like, where are you guys going to go? Do you know? Last night we went to Etch. Edge is really good. And it's a standard. It's been here forever. Okay.

That's one of the places that I would say you should go. And it's closer downtown. Yeah, we walked. It was cool. It's great. I like the story too. And then Saturday, oh gosh. Not hutch.

Oh, darn it. That's okay. Yeah, anyway. Pizza hut? What kind of? What kind? Oh, pizza hut? Pizza Hut.

No. Husk? Not that one. Husk. Husk. Husk. There you like husk? Husk?

Yeah. Morgan, you like Husk? I've been there once. It's been a long time, though. I love it. Really? And it's beautiful. Like the house that it's in. It's really pretty. No, that's Tusk.

They have a lot of different things. They said it is, it was sort of a southern but elevated to the bit, which sounds elevated. Yeah, it's elevating. Definitely have to do hot chicken one day. You got to do that. Okay, so here's what I want to say about that. A little overrated.

But if you want to do it. You got to try it. It's like going to Times Square in New York. One. Haddy bees. Haddy bees. Okay. Guys.

It's got to be Hattie Beattie. Why are you putting me in this place? I don't think that's the best, but that is the time square. Like you should go and the line's going to be long because that's the most famous. And they have to do so much because they're so popular. I think they're really good. But I don't think it's like the best because they're so popular. And when you've got to turn over so much chicken, how do you put effort into every piece of chicken?

I like Hattie B's. I see what you're saying. But it's... Morgan, do you have a hot chicken? Yeah, the place that I... I personally don't eat hot chicken, but the place I always take everybody to is princes and everybody's obsessed with it.

Don't like Princess. Really? I don't like it. I don't. Why not? Too hot. Okay, that's why. Got it.

Fair enough. It's like, I love the hot idea, but if you're going to, like, kill me with a heat, I'm out. Got it. That makes sense. So if you're not a wimp, go to princes. Basically. But I think you should go to Hattie B's because I think it's part of the Nashville

experience. And I like Hattie B's. but everybody knows Hattie B's, so everybody goes to Hattie B's, and you have to weigh, waiting in line, with getting the chicken and how good the chicken is. Is one location better than another?

How does that work? The one downtown's probably the most packed, right? The one down downtown, but then another one too, that's close. There's one in West. If you can go to the West one, you probably won't wait as long. Seven minute different in drive, though. Yeah. It's not that far.

Okay. Do you have a car or Uber? No, Uber. But people also say, like, a little hack for that, too, could be ordering it on line like to go. Oh, no, don't do that. You got to experience it in the plate. Stay in line. I'm saying if the line

is... No, if you're going to do the line, do the freaking line and wait in line and do the whole experience. And then you tell everyone like, oh, we waited in line. It was cool. So can you have a cocktail while you're waiting in a line? I don't know. Outside, no. You can put it in like a sonic cup. Do you guys have sonics? We do. We have sonic. Go back to high school. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. If you wanted to hide it, you go get like a

yeah, like a lemonberry slush or something. You pour your drink in there. Great tip. Ever clear. Are you guys exhausted from your flight? Because that's a long trip. It was. We were very tired last night.

Yeah. It's feeling good today. Where did you have to connect? Like Denver? L.A. Oh, and then you made the whole L.A. to Nashville? Yes. Yeah, that's hard.

What sucks about that? And all my things are what sucks about that. You tell me a story. I'm like, you know what? Yeah. But here's what sucks about that. You have to fly back the longer way now. Because the head wins.

What I. like about going to L.A. is the way there is longer, the way back is shorter because the headwinds saved you half an hour. You guys got the short trip here. I feel bad for you on the way home. Yeah, yeah, that's rough. As you can see, I really invest too much into finding things wrong. I'm like, you know what sucks about the hattie bees, the lines. Oh, well, that's super cool. And I was trying to share how to avoid the lines, but never mind. I just don't think that's part of the experience. But if you can experience, if the whole experience is just to just try the You need it? Well, people have said, yeah, they still have like a...

They still get to enjoy it, but they'd rather spend their time doing other things since you'll have such a short stint here. How long is this lying like five hours? No, no, no, no. If you're not in now, you won't get in tomorrow. Honestly, I've never been. If you're not in line right now. I say like 20 minutes. No, no, no, no.

If it's lunch, lunch, it's 45 minutes to an hour. Really? If it's like 2 o'clock, 10 minutes. 11 a.m., 3 minutes. That's right when they open You're there first one boom Yeah well we'll have to do off hours for sure And we've really like

I know Pete on their chairs Welcome to Nashville Can I give them a different one that's off the beaten path That's really good Red's hot chicken Ooh It is really good by Centennial Park

What do you might off the beaten path? It's like a little shack right across the street From Centennial Park That's not that far Really good Oh I'd say that Pat's pretty beaten It's just a different Yeah yeah

It's not one people talk about They talk about princes they talk about how to these. Maybe not a tourist path. Right. And do you want to see famous people while you're here or do you care? Sure. So the thing about Nashville with famous people is if you go anywhere where there are tourists,

they're not going to be famous people. Like when you go to, you should go to Broadway for sure. Be careful because you probably catch something. Who knows what it is? It's kind of the vibe there. You won't see anybody famous down there. And everybody expects if they go to these artist bars, they're going to see possibly the artist.

Unless that artist is fulfilling their contract of having, to do like three appearances at their bar. Right. Which is, they're not even really their bars. They lease their name, you know, for the most part. That artist isn't there unless it's one of those times. But there are places like red door, losers. Like if you want to go to a bar and possibly see like a country music artist,

you go to like those places. But I don't know if that's your vibe or not. You may be like, you know, hot chicken and up. You can't leave. Your tongue's hurting so bad. I think that sounds like fun. Is that Broadway area? No, it's away from Broadway.

Oh, God. It's around the corner. It's called West End. West End. And like if you want, like for food places, again, if you go to like the really great places, if they go, they're going to get like a private room. But if you go to like a random place, like a true food kitchen here, I've seen so many artists and like famous people just chilling at true food because nobody expects them to be there. I've seen them at Target. Yeah, just go grocery store.

A grocery store. They have to shop, right? That's right. They have to shop. Yeah. And they do actually do it themselves. some. Yeah, a lot of them.

Like Riba. I saw her at the grocery store once. And they walk around with a microphone. So that's how you'll know for sure that it's them. So are they completely made up when they're out at Target? No. It doesn't even look like them. But like Riba.

That's why you have to go up to them and just like lift up their hat, stay at them. They encourage you to touch them. Oh, okay. I'll tell them. I got that good advice. Well, I'm super happy for you guys. You got to come. What's the wet?

Is it cold? Oh, it's nice. 75 degrees. Really great. Because it's been, it sucked here. We told him it snowed on Monday. Like, I don't know what, this is a warm day. Yeah, it's weird.

Yeah, 75 today, I think they said. Yeah, well, good. Amazing. The city is awesome. And I'm not somebody who's from here. So I think you're going to have a great time, especially if the weather's good. And do all the Broadway stuff, but don't be, it's almost like a gremlin. Like, you fed a gremlin after midnight, it turns into the, I'd probably get out of there by 11.

Okay, good. Good. Wouldn't you guys agree? Nothing good happens after 11? Well, it's just, who knows. Especially on a Thursday and Friday night, it gets. It gets wild. It gets insane down there.

Yeah. It was super nice to meet you guys. I hope you too. Thank you much for your hospitality and supporting for the first tea program. And Selena's where we're fun. We actually brought you guys a few gifts. Oh, we'd love to have it. Oh, we love gifts.

Nobody loves gifts more than us. That's right. Yeah, what are they? Let's open them up. All right. Christmas time. Morgan got her own individual. Oh, good, good, good, good.

She did. She did. She actually did. Wow. That's ridiculous. Thank you. what if I open it and it's hot chicken? Oh, and no line.

I feel like I need to say something. You don't. This is what, so she really got her own gift. Yeah, she got her own gift. She got her own box. Open the box up there. Well, let her say it. Go ahead and say, no, say what you're going to say.

I just feel really honored that she recognized me over you, lunchbox. That's right. That's what you were going to say. That's what you fought for, Amy. These are cool. Cool Selena's hats. Thank you very much. I don't know.

Oh, and. Uh-oh, there's more. It's like a Monterey-specific pack. Right. Oh, that's cool. Oh, it's cool. Oh, it's a piece of the castle, the Brad Pitt. No way.

It's a rock from the castle. It's Brad Pitt. Golf. Do you play golf? I really don't. So I think part of the plan was to play golf, but he says he doesn't play golf. What in the world? I would completely embarrass myself.

They hit us up and they were like, can you, they don't play golf. I'm like, great, let's find something else. Yeah. So we were able to, and I hope you guys think that the substitution is cool is to play the Opry. We knew you were coming. So I called the Opry and I play the Opry a bunch. And I was like, hey, is there any chance that I can play that night?

Eddie and I'll come up and play because I want to bring our guests. They were like, awesome, no problem. So I hope that's a good substitution. That's an amazing substitution. Yeah, it sounds like so much fun. We agree. I really appreciate that. And it's, I'm just telling you that show, you got so lucky with a good show.

I'm excited. Yeah, that's fun. The Opry is one of the things, even to people listening now. If you come to Nashville, go to the Opry. because it's one of the Nashville. I won't even say traditions, but it's part of like the fundamental reasons that Nashville even exists.

So I'm glad you guys get to go to that. You will love it. All right. And what else is in that present, man? Don't worry about it. You'll find that, man. What do you mean? It's to me? It's not to you? It's to all of us.

No, this is all to me. It says specifically, there's a note. We said it was to everybody, but mostly to you. Oh. So, yeah. That explains the reaction in the green room, yeah. So if you guys are cool with it, I'm actually going to, we'd love to take a picture with you guys. It's going to take me like, I don't know, 30 minutes to get up and walk over there.

But thank you so much for, you know, buying the charity de-oction item. I know we put golf on there. I'm glad you didn't play golf because I wouldn't have been able to play golf at all with my broken foot. Worked out. Yeah, that kind of. Yeah, and we'll see you tomorrow night at the Opry for sure. Excellent. Thank you so much.

All right. And we're done. Thank you guys. Thanks to our guests who came by. One of the big charity deal. That's fun. A penny costs 3.69 cents. Yeah, see, more than the penny's worth.

There you go. Not worth it. But if the penny gets used a bunch. Which it doesn't. That's the problem. It gets cycled through many payments. People still use pennies? I would assume.

The actual penny? I'd assume. Don't ask me. We're done. I don't believe it. Thank you, guys. Have a great rest of the day. And we'll see you tomorrow.
