I mean, I just don't feel any different, but it is summertime. And so with summer, all the big blockbusters are coming out that, what's the airplane movie call?
Starting point is 00:02:35 Tom Gunn. Tom Gun came out. The airplane movie. I can give a crap. Whatever. Tom, Tom Cruise is, well. weird to me. It's hard for me to like any Tom Cruise movie. Yeah, you have to block that out for
Starting point is 00:02:45 Top Gun. I probably will. But I did not watch it, but my idea is our movie guy. And so, Mike, tell everybody what you bought for the summer. It's a summer pass to a movie theater subscription. So that means what? 20 bucks a month, I can go see as many movies as I want. Oh, not bad.
Starting point is 00:03:01 That's awesome. That saves so much money. It's so expensive, and he loves going. How many movies you go into in a month? I'd probably go to like four, five. You get popcorn or anything with that? Just a straight movie. How much does it cost for a movie ticket now? Probably like 13, 14 bucks.
Starting point is 00:03:15 So if you go to two, you made your money back. Yeah, easy. You're going to go to two movies a month? Easily. You're a movie podcast. He's movie Mike. Yeah, I guess. But you'd have probably done that anyway.
Starting point is 00:03:23 Yeah, I would have. He knows he's not off for the summer, right? Like, we still work. It's not like school. I think he does this anyway. Oh, yeah, you know. It's not summer vacation. So you have your list of what?
Starting point is 00:03:34 Top five movies I'm anticipating this summer. Are they all blockwester? Yes, big movies. All right. Number five, Mike D. Jurassic World Dominion. it's the final in this trilogy but all the original people from the first one
Starting point is 00:03:44 are coming back. Dominion? Yeah. What's that mean? It's just the name of the movie. So all the people, like, is Goldblum going to be there? Yeah, Jeff Goldblum, Sam Neal, and Lord Dern.
Starting point is 00:03:56 I just had never cared. I saw the first one, I thought it was fine back in the day, but I just haven't watched any of the other ones. They're good. They're fun. Really? Yeah. I don't like care enough.
Starting point is 00:04:04 All right, next one. Lightyear. Is that buzz? Yeah, it's like the original story of how the real person, who inspired the toy. There's a human? Yeah, well... Oh, it's a cartoon.
Starting point is 00:04:15 Yeah, it's a cartoon, so it's a fictional person, but he would have been... This would have been the movie that Andy would have seen that would have inspired him to buy the Buzz Light Your Toy. Okay, number three.
Starting point is 00:04:24 It is Elvis. Oh, yeah, that one I would go see. It's so good, yeah. I've been seeing great reviews about it. Like, some of his family have said that they really kind of captured who he was. Apparently, I got a 10-minute standing ovation
Starting point is 00:04:34 at the end of some film festival, but every year it's like, they stood up for eight minutes, 72 minutes. I think they just do that crap. See how long they can stand up. Yeah, I think it's like, all right. Everybody stand up.
Starting point is 00:04:43 Let's just clap to we're tired. That looks good. Yeah, that comes out on June 24th. Is it on streaming services at all or just theaters? These are all theaters. I've got to give me a subscription, dang it. All right, number two? It is a movie called Nope from director Jordan Peel.
Starting point is 00:04:55 He did Us. Nope. Nope. As in no, but nope. Yeah, nope. Scary? Yeah, it's like a modern horror movie. He's the guy who did Get Out and us.
Starting point is 00:05:05 I liked his movies, and I don't like scary movies, but I like those two. Yeah, they're like psychological thriller. So this is the kind of horror movie I'm really into right now, and this is looking like it to be really good. Ask me if I want to watch the theater. You're watching the theater? Nope. Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:17 Nope. What's it about, though? Do you know? It's about basically aliens coming down and taking over, like, this California ranch. I thought it's about every girl that I asked to date ages 15 to 26. It's not that? Not that.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Okay. So aliens come down at a ranch? Yeah. I like that. It comes out on July 22nd. All right. And the number one movie movie, movie mics anticipating this summer.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Well, Marvel movies are my favorite, and Thor, Levin Dunder comes out on July 8th, and I think this is going to be one of the best Marvel movies, probably in the last five years. Thor, I'm kind of lukewarm on the character. I think he's very underrated. I like the first one pretty good. I kind of got bored with him. I liked Fat Thor. Oh, yeah, that was funny.
Starting point is 00:06:00 Fat Thor is awesome. They should do that movie. Fat Lazy Thor? Yeah, Fat Thor on coming at your August 3rd. So he's not Fat Thor anymore. No, he gets ripped up for this one. He's ripped up for all of them. But I mean, like, in the movie, you see him go from that transformation from Fat Thor.
Starting point is 00:06:13 Oh, he has Fat Thor in the movie. Yeah, he starts with a fat. Sign me up. I'll leave when he's normal, but I'm in for the first fat part. All right, Mike, appreciate that. Yeah. There he is. Movie Mike, and you check out Movie Mike's podcast, which is called Movie Mike's Movie Podcast.
Starting point is 00:06:26 That is it. That is it. All right, Mike, appreciate that. What's up, everybody? Hope you had some time off. Hope you had a nice three-day weekend. It's now time to go over and open the mailbag. You send an email and we read it.
Starting point is 00:06:39 on the air. It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Yeah. Hello, Bobby Bones. I have a question. Would you let your teenagers play beer pong if the cups were filled with water? I'm asking because I did so and posted a picture of it on Facebook and now everyone's either laughing about it or telling me I'm setting a bad example for my kids. This weekend I was trying to keep them occupied. I thought it'd be fun. They had a great time they loved it. They didn't even know it was a drinking game. So was I wrong, or was I right, to let them play beer pong, but with water, signed Pongin' Dad. Okay, you're laughing hard, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:07:14 Yeah, I don't think there's anything wrong with it. You know, as long as they're not drinking or, I mean, it's just a drinking game, but it's also just a game. I play quarters with my kids, you know, where you slide the shot glass and then you try to bounce the quarter on the table. They love it. But we're not drinking if you make it. That's funny you're using shot glasses, though.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Totally. That's even more elevated than this. I agree. But here's the thing, though, if they did make the quarter or whatever, and I was like, oh, take the cranberry juice. Shoot, shoot, shoot. Did you make him shoot? No, that would be wrong.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Why would that be wrong? That'd be hilarious. Because then I'm teaching them the drinking game. The drinking part of, right. Well, I'm not even saying that's wrong. That would just be, again, even elevated more. Yes. Otherwise, listen, to Pong Dad, you're just playing a bouncy ball game with cups of water.
Starting point is 00:07:56 Water pong. Correct. It's it. The bouncy ball game's been happening forever. Bozo has a grand prize game. There's bouncy, bouncy, there's also Pong. There's, you're doing nothing wrong. If there was beer and one.
Starting point is 00:08:09 of the cups. Or if your side had beer and there's it. You're good. There's nothing here in any way that is setting a bad example for your kids. You're bouncing a ball on a table into cups. The end. It doesn't have to be beer pong. I think before it was beer pong, it was just bouncing the cup game.
Starting point is 00:08:25 Hey, if anything, you're getting them ready for college, right? They're going to be really good when they go. Lunchbox. Listen, it's a game. Who cares? You're drinking water. It doesn't matter. And don't listen to people on Facebook. People on Facebook are idiots. It's just a game. I agree with you on that.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Not the game, the Facebook idiot part. Goodness. I agree completely. All right, Amy, have a problem with it? No, just we call it, we'd call it water pong. It's fine. Yeah. Gatorade pong.
Starting point is 00:08:50 Fill it up with whatever you want pong. Yeah, yeah. There you go. You did nothing wrong. Your friends are idiots because they are on Facebook. That's right. All right, close it up. We've got your email and we read it on the air.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Now it's about to close Bobby's mail back. Yeah. All right, prepare to have your mind blown right now because I didn't know this. And I've been using my nose my whole life. Okay? Okay. Who else has used their nose their whole life? Me.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Yeah, classic, right? So, nostrils switch on and off every three to four hours. So only really one works at a time. What? So when you're just breathing normally, you're not ripping through both of them. Now, if you start to think about it, you're probably doing it. But if you're just chilling and your breathing's happening all in the subconscious level, you're picking one nostril. So one is always smelling and breathing while the other nostril closes down and rest.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Tell me that ain't some crazy stuff. It takes a nap. Why have I never heard of this? I don't know that it comes up in a lot of parties. Now it is. Yeah, but isn't that why? And I can see that. I think I'm pretty left nostril dominant now that I think about it.
Starting point is 00:09:58 I'm left-handed. I'm like. So if you're left-handed, you're left-musel. Well, no, not always. But I feel my left nostrils. I was a little tired. Maybe it's just been going the last few hours. But I thought that, boom, mind-blown.
Starting point is 00:10:08 You want another mind-blown? One of my hobbies, by the way, and I don't have a lot of hobbies, but one of them is trying to race the GPS, meaning when I said it, and I'm like, I've got to get to this place, if it says, I'm going to get there at 653, you better dang believe.
Starting point is 00:10:22 I want to get there at 652 or earlier. So I'm trying to race the GPS. I'm not driving recklessly, but I'm being very efficient, and my goal is to beat that time. And if I'm going on a long trip, three or four hours, oh, man, I'll beat it by 30 minutes. Like the goal, at a gas station.
Starting point is 00:10:35 At a gas station, like a pit stop. It's like a pit stop. a NASCAR track. Yes. So I started to research if I go faster, does that actually, like how fast do I have to go for how long? So traffic experts say that speeding doesn't actually save you a ton of time. For instance, a five-mile drive, you save only 43 seconds by going 10 miles an hour over. Wow. And that's it. Yeah, and that's a ticket. You'll get a ticket for that. So you're saving less than a minute. On a 10-mile trip, you'll save a minute in 26 seconds by going 10 over, basically.
Starting point is 00:11:08 So when you start to lay out these well sometimes coming to this job, I need that 40 seconds. Do you ever get near the traffic light and you're like, I'm close? Oh, no, no one. I've run them. You've run the light to get here on time? Absolutely, I'll pull up, look at it. Right.
Starting point is 00:11:25 Not because you're impatient because you don't want to be late. Because I don't want to be late. Bones, I've thought about ditching the car and just running to work. Right there at that light. It's time for the good news. Juicer Eddie. Tell me something good. Linda is a school bus driver in Brian, Ohio, and she did not expect this to happen, man,
Starting point is 00:11:46 but she's driving the bus, and she's got all the kids in there, and she starts smelling a weird odor, and then on the dashboard, all the lights start coming on, like, oh, warning, warning, warning, warning. And I guess they had just taken off from the school, so there's a line of buses. Well, the bus driver in front looks, gets out the windows, says, hey, hey, there's smoke coming from the front of your bus. She's like, oh, my gosh, because she finally sees the smoke. Yes, it's catching on fire.
Starting point is 00:12:07 So she gets all the kids with the help of some of the older students. Let's get the kids all out. She pulls over. She gets them all out safely. They look back and the entire front of the bus is engulfed in flames. So just in time, she got all the kids out. You know, there's something to say just for bus drivers in general. One, that's a hard drive a bus.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Two, all those kids screaming at you. Oh, yeah. Three, underappreciated. We were not nice to our bus drivers. Nobody was. No. It's kind of like a ride of passage. Like, maybe you're not mean to the bus driver, but you're just an idiot on the bus.
Starting point is 00:12:37 Yeah. You stand up. Yeah. You switch seats. And you outnumber the bus driver. Remember the big mirror they had above them? And they would always look up on the big mirror and they'd say, hey, you get down. I'd be like, oh, my bad.
Starting point is 00:12:49 Sit back down again. Well, we had cameras. They had a little box up there. And it said, you're being recorded. And then I found out one day there was actually no camera in there. And so. I knew it. It's on.
Starting point is 00:12:58 And I was never bad. But I was never good. I was. That was the worst I got. But if they were paper fights, did you participate? Of course. Of course. America.
Starting point is 00:13:09 Shout out to her. Everybody's safe. That's a great story. That's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. On the Bobby Bones Show now. Jordan Davis. You walked in bragging about a fish you just caught.
Starting point is 00:13:22 Yeah, I know. No hello or anything. He just runs up on his phone. I did say, what's up, gang? All I saw was a phone coming at my face. Like, look what I caught. I know. But it wasn't Percy.
Starting point is 00:13:31 It wasn't here in Nashville. So nobody can get mad that I didn't text. Well, tell us about the fish. It was 9-1. 9 pounds, 1 ounce. What kind of fish? It was a bass. Because if you said catfish, that's not a big catfish. You always have to say what the fish is.
Starting point is 00:13:47 Because if you said 9-1, I was like, what's that? You say a trout. I'll be like, I don't believe you. That's too big for a trout. Yeah. That's big. That's my personal best. Like photoshop to me.
Starting point is 00:13:55 That's the first thing Bobby says, like, it's too green behind it. They can't give you the crush. Hey, something was fishy. So did you post that on social media? I haven't posted that one. Are you going to? Are you going to?
Starting point is 00:14:06 Or you just keeping that for your... No, no. I'm going to show that one off. Jordan Davis is here. I want to walk through some of your number ones. Let's start with the last one. Here is, buy dirt. By dirt.
Starting point is 00:14:17 Did this song kind of change it for you? Because you had other number ones, but I feel like this one was just so substantial. Yeah. I could, like, this is, I've never had a song react the way this one has. From live performances, you know, it's just a career-changing song, you know.
Starting point is 00:14:33 And to, like, venues where, there's more people showing up to shows now. Yeah. And you can tell that, yeah, like they really not too up on the older stuff, but by dirt is what brought them there. I want to ask a favor of you at some point when you're playing your own show. Just do it once for me. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:51 Start your set with By Dirt and then end your set with By Dirt. And I'm not joking. I probably pull that out. People will love it. Yeah. But myself included, I'm like, I don't know. Because even segments on this show, I'm like, I don't want to do it every hour. But people just love.
Starting point is 00:15:06 what they love. Yeah. If you'll just do it one time for me at some show. Okay. I can do that. I can do that. And I'm going to let them know
Starting point is 00:15:12 like this is for Bobby. No, no, I don't do that because I'll boo you. Then they'll be like boo. And then we'll just talk to you after that weekend. Okay. And I want to know how it felt
Starting point is 00:15:20 to do a massive hit at the beginning and end of your set. And if it still felt when you did the end that they still cared as much. I got just a science experiment. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:15:29 So that's that. Here is slow dance in a parking lot. Another number one. Here is take. for me from 2019. And here is singles you up. If he ever singles you up. So I'm looking at days you have a 2018, 2019, 2020.
Starting point is 00:15:55 Ooh, big gap, 2021. Then you have 2020. That must have been a rough year for you. Yeah, I think it was rough year for all. Yeah, that's pretty true. That's pretty true. But we're here today talking about your new song. So what my world spins around.
Starting point is 00:16:10 That's the new single. Like, what the heck's up with this song? Man, this is actually, speaking of 2021, we wrote this in 2021. And it just really a song, I think it's different for me. Like, I've never, I think sonically, like, you know, production-wise, it's something that I've never really done. But the lyric is one of my favorites. I wrote that with Ryan Hurd and Matt Draxton.
Starting point is 00:16:29 And it's been one that just kind of hung around for a long time. I just love the message behind it. And, yeah, another love song about the wife. will you, if you're writing with Ryan Hurd, who's also a great songwriter, but also an artist, like with hits himself, was that ever a conversation like, all right, who's going to get it? Ryan, you're going to sing it or am I going to sing it? It was up until, like, we sang the demo that day, because I was sitting there and Ryan would sing it, and I'd be like, dang, this would be a really good Ryan Hurd song. And then it got time to sing the demo. And I was kind of like, well, I guess it's my song now. Were you rooting for it to be a Ryan song or secretly? Like, how does that have? There's like, it's like, it's like, have to be a conversation about it, right? Yeah, I mean, we're kind of like at one point.
Starting point is 00:17:09 Right? Who's paid the check? I was kind of like, dude, is this, is this your song? And he was like, no, no, this is yours? I was like, okay. And then are you like, why you don't want it? Because it sucks? That's what I would think. I'd be like, what do you mean? Well, I mean, Ryan doesn't write a lot of bad song. So I was kind of like, I mean, dude, if you're not going to do this, I'll do it. That's cool. Well, you said you mentioned your wife. So then is it boiled down to like, well, is this more like my wife or your wife? I know. Who are we talking about here? That's good. I mean, it's, you know, all those get pulled on. You know, anytime I'm, it's like, well, I'm going to reflect on. like experience that I've had with my wife try to throw it into this song. I don't know Ryan probably does the same thing, but my favorite line is, hey, Mera and I love you in this song.
Starting point is 00:17:47 Yeah. On the Bobby Bones Show now. Jordan Davis. I saw you were named LSU's Young Alumni of the Year. Yeah. Is that one? One? Yeah, I got it. That's awesome. When I got the phone call for it, I was kind of like, are y'all sure, y'all are giving this to the right person?
Starting point is 00:18:05 But it was cool. I mean, we got to go down to Baton Rouge, and they nominated four other people, in like the Hall of Distinction, which is really cool. You know, got to give a speech. Just go around the campus. Like this is the first time I've been back on campus since being in school. So, yeah, it was kind of cool to be back and be a part of it. It's a huge honor.
Starting point is 00:18:22 I'm really proud of that one. Yeah, because home is awesome. And the same for me. I know you know I've talked about this. I'm from Arkansas. You're from Louisiana. So it's, that stuff is so important to us. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:31 Even as things in our respective careers get weirder and cooler, still the most important things are like when home is like, putting their arms around you still. Yeah, and that's like, even my mom, I like that, like I've had a lot of amazing things happen in music. But, you know, when mom says, like, hey, I'm really proud of you for this, like this is special, you know, it just means a little bit more. And too, like, yeah, I mean, we both, you love Arkansas just as much as I love LSU.
Starting point is 00:18:57 So having them reach out and say, you know, hey, congratulations, we want to honor you on something. It's pretty cool. The dynamic at home, because I'll compare yours with mine, and my wife, she loves me because I'm funny, but she doesn't find me near as funny anymore because we're together all the time. And if I can get a laugh out of her,
Starting point is 00:19:15 I'm like, wow, I must have really like a cheap A level. Yeah, because you're with someone and she's funnier than I am, so it's hard to crack it. But when I do, I'm like so proud of myself. Yeah. As a singer, as a performer, as a songwriter, do you find it's harder with your wife to create something that she's like,
Starting point is 00:19:30 wow, that's really good because she's always been around what you do? I think, like, the first perfect example, first weekend of Brooks and Dunn tour, all right, opening up for Brooks and Dunn. Legendary, all right. I'm like, hey, baby, are you coming out for this first weekend of Brooks and Dunn? She's like, nah, I think I'm going to go visit my friend.
Starting point is 00:19:50 I was like, babe, I'm opening for Brooks and Dunn. Ma Maria. Ever heard that? Your quoting song that guy, yeah. They sing that. And I mean, I'll probably make, I'll make one show eventually. And like, I'm driving a bus call. I'm like, what?
Starting point is 00:20:04 Like, I would be, like, that's the first time. I've gotten like kind of giddy over like going to bus call and being like oh my gosh dude I get to open for brooks and don't tomorrow night and I was like and my wife's just like oh cool I see you on Monday but when she is impressed it's awesome and LSU was at the young alumnus of the year I was like babe I'm young alumn and she was like well how I was like I don't know I just rhyme some words put some songs out but no I mean you know it's a she was proud of that I I feel like, yeah, it is. It's tougher to get like a great reaction out of her
Starting point is 00:20:40 because obviously Brooks and Dunn's not doing it. You know, and they don't do it for me anymore either. I'll be honest, guys. Been there done that. Been there done that. That's pretty awesome, right? And I'm lucky enough to have a really strong relationship with Ronnie Dunn.
Starting point is 00:20:52 And as a kid, never. I would never have in a million years imagine that I'd be friends with Ronnie. Yeah. But for you to go out and play in front of that crowd, I would imagine that for a minute, it's tough to win that over. not because you're not good,
Starting point is 00:21:07 but because they didn't come to see you. Right. And they probably, some of that crowd's a little older. Yeah. Like how hard is it to win over a crowd like that? It took us, we're still messing with our set.
Starting point is 00:21:17 You know, the first night, we put a set list together when we went out there. Collective walking off stage and, hey, guys, that didn't work. That's not the right one.
Starting point is 00:21:25 So we do it. And cover wise, like, we cover Brooks and Dunn songs, right? We can't cover that when you're over before. Hilarious if you did it in front of them.
Starting point is 00:21:32 Oh, man. But, like, we cover some, you know, just like some older, you know, like we do ricochet Daddy's Money. We cover that song. That's a good one, though. She got a daddy's money.
Starting point is 00:21:44 Her mama's good looks more laugh than a stack of comic books. That's a good one. Let's go. Bobby Bowles version. I love that. Is that, I messed up the lyric? No, it's great.
Starting point is 00:21:55 I just, you singing it. It's your version of it. That means it wasn't that good, Eddie? We'll work on that. No, we do that one. We do, what else? We do Amos Moses, the old Jerry Reed song.
Starting point is 00:22:05 song about Alligators. But you don't do those now or you do? We do them for the Brooks and Duny. Got it. I would think we sat in that they'd love that. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. And then we just kind of do,
Starting point is 00:22:14 I do like more acoustic stuff. Like, you know, try to just do singer-songwriter stuff. But it's still fun. Like, I don't want to change it too much to be like, I'm not going to fold into that crowd. I'd rather like still be who we are,
Starting point is 00:22:26 do what I do. And, you know, I mean, I feel like that's how I'm going to put the best show on anyway. It's always, I say always, we've done it once. Opening for like a major, superstar because we open for Garth. It's, you know that
Starting point is 00:22:39 they've been waiting for months and months and months and months to see Garth Brooks. Yeah. You know. They hadn't just waited a couple weeks. No. That's a date circled. Yeah. And like you're just in between. Yeah. And so you're just trying not to annoy the people.
Starting point is 00:22:55 That's what we felt like. We wanted to do a good job. But we wanted to like not annoy people just be a slip and slide over to Garth, you know? I mean, that's why we look at it with them. And we have an hour, which I feel like is like a little long. That's, yeah, that's more. I mean, obviously, I'm not, I'm not going to go and be like, hey, I don't want to play any longer.
Starting point is 00:23:13 Like, that's a long time as a, for an opener. That's a, like, 45 minutes, 35 minutes is the sweet spot. How long do you have? Well, so the funny story is we were on stage beforehand, and we were talking to Garth Brooks and Tresher Yearwood, as I call him, G&T. And Garth was like, hey, it plays as long as you want. And I was like, no, I think we're going to do, like, because he said he could do like 30, minutes. Initially, that's what they said. He goes, if you feel like, just keep playing, I don't care. I'm going to be here all night anyway. And I thought to myself, if we play more because we're feeling
Starting point is 00:23:42 it, people are going to feel it less for us. So we played 35 and got off and felt great about that time. That's the sweet spot. We played ricochet Daddy's Money and we left and we got the crap out of there. But it's, it's cool to be a fan of country music and then play in front of like the reasons that you even in country music. Oh, yeah. And I'm sure for Brooks and Dunn, that's pretty cool. It's one of them.
Starting point is 00:24:09 I mean, just every song is just a smash. And it's just, and, you know, you know Ronnie, and I know kicks pretty well. And just two great guys. The band, the crew, and it's just so much easier whenever everybody out there is just really, really good human beings. And it just makes it great. I wonder what that tour gift is going to be, the end of tour gift. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:24:29 Oh, man. We start building it up. Oh, if I can be a plane. Oh, yeah. You have to get, do you have to get them one? I will definitely get them something. Because how do you get somebody the gift that has everything? Yeah, welcome to our world.
Starting point is 00:24:41 Something that they. Yeah, that's what we deal with. That's a, yeah, that is a, I mean, now I have to get them something. Yeah, now because it's definitely been stated. I don't know. I think like, kicks is golf, or I could go something golf with kicks. What am I talking about this on the biggest radio show? That's what we do.
Starting point is 00:24:58 I saw on your Instagram, there was a betting slip. I don't think it was legit because I looked at it and it said you bet $4,000. Not true at all. not true and I said that before we posted it I was like somebody's gonna think that I'm throwing around $4,000 well I at first I thought because I am a big draft kings guy and so I post my betting slip sometimes but I ain't $4,000 and so I saw you post that and I was like buy dirt dirt it must be treating you good buying a lot of dirt and that's the thing it's like we hid the release of the song in there and so like all these people picked it up and they're like god
Starting point is 00:25:28 Jordan Davis is bragging these betting four grand I would never not that I don't think the Saints could win the Super Bowl but I would not put $4,000 on the Saints to win the Super Bowl next year. I just thought you were way richer than I thought, and I wish I wouldn't pay for your golfing food. That's what I thought. I was like, I'll never do that again if he's making that kind of money. Last time I'll get a free round from Bobby.
Starting point is 00:25:46 Oh, listen, man, I'm super pumped for you. I'm glad you have another song out. You have four number ones, and then you're, the song you have that wasn't number one was also a big hit, almost maybe. Almost maybe, yeah. Yeah, Ray, do you have that one? Yeah, so cold.
Starting point is 00:26:00 It's over out of the blues. I think it's a day. I think it's like, it got to five. But see, I think that was 2021. Just a weird year. I think this song actually, if it was a normal year, it makes it. I think the song actually has more lasting power than slow dance in a parking lot. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:19 And that I think people remember this. It's just quicker. It's hookier. Yeah. So I think that'll be one of those weird songs. It was a number one. That'll be one of your big songs. And it's great, too.
Starting point is 00:26:28 Like, you know, the fans don't. Yeah, nobody cares. They just know they like the song. They probably assume it was a number one. Yeah, they're just like, oh, I heard this one on the radio. Like, this is one of my favorites. Or they're like, this guy with the beard sucks, where's Brooks and done? That's half of the crowd.
Starting point is 00:26:42 That could also happen too. No, listen, man, you're just killing it. You got four number ones, almost maybes is a massive song, and then, you know, it's good to have pressure, meaning you have a little pressure on this because you have been performing, and I don't mean that in a way of like, oh, boy, you got pressure. It's like you've worked so hard to be in an uncomfortable, place to have pressure on you because you are expected to perform. And congratulations. That's awesome. Thank you. It's definitely, and by dirt, you know, and we talked about this playing golf. It was like the second I said like, you know what, by dirt was my last song. The next song is the next
Starting point is 00:27:21 song. Because for the longest time, every song got put up to that. And I was like, I'm never, like, it's not as good as by dirt. And finally one day I was like, you know what, I can't think about that song anymore. Next single has to be the next single. And, I just got to commit to it and go with it. We would never get new songs after great songs if that were the case. I know. I mean, everybody would be like, well, crap, that's my kind of night. We can never make another one, you know?
Starting point is 00:27:45 And we have no more Luke Bryan songs. I know. So I'm glad that you got over that. And here we are. New song. New record, maybe end of the year, next year. What's the deal? It's always, I don't even care that much about records, but when's a collection of Jordan
Starting point is 00:27:58 Davis songs come out? I'm hoping by the end of the year. That's the plan right now. Did you buy any dirt as a celebration? I did not. Literal dirt. See what you should have done. Wait, I did. I did. Land?
Starting point is 00:28:09 Duck camp. Yeah. No, no, no. Go and buy literal to a dirt farm. Oh. And buy like, and buy, going to purchase dirt. Like mulch. Like mulch. Or you can even do mulch. Yes.
Starting point is 00:28:19 Even that. Yes. Okay. That should have been the video. If mulch counts. I should run your social media. Yeah. Like I'm really going to buy some dirt guys.
Starting point is 00:28:25 You go on and you buy dirt. If mulch counts, I bought dirt. All right. Jordan Davis. Follow him on Instagram. Jordan Davis official. He is the most successful alumnus of LSU in 2022. Young alumnus, which by the way, I'll mention this before we go. What's interesting to me is that you obviously have been way into music, but you went to college not to do music.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Like environmental science. And you had a job in that. Your job was what? I was doing residential erosion control. That's what he was doing. Wow. Yeah. Oh my gosh. I could have used you. Like just the other day, my neighbor and I, there's like a little bit of a discrepancy and now we're having to split the bill because we were going to put it. But something in between our houses is eroding and they're saying it's coming off. The water's coming off of our thing and it's our fault. But it's not. It's like technically maybe the builder. I feel like you're hitting him out for an estimate or something right now.
Starting point is 00:29:17 If you need me to come, you know, I can put my, no. No, do not call me. But yeah, like that's what I was doing that until I told my boss at the time. I was like, hey, I want to go write songs in Nashville. He was like, A, I didn't even know that you cared about writing music. And B, if you want to do that, you can keep this job until you move, but you can't keep doing what you're doing. So I went to the landscaping side, so I was the weedier guy.
Starting point is 00:29:43 That's good. Great weed eater guy. I weeded it for years of myself, didn't make it on a golf course. I was a great weed eater guy myself, but I hated that job because I was always covered in grass, stained. Everything was stained all the time. Every pair of glasses I had had grass all. in it, it was a terrible, terrible job.
Starting point is 00:30:00 And you always smell grass. Like, it just, it's always which. But a different kind of grass than like wet morning grass. Right, right. Like dirty, sweaty grass. Dry, dead, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Hot grass. You can tell a couple guys there's worked fields over there.
Starting point is 00:30:17 Eddie comes in, exhausted this morning. Your son has taken his final exams. Yeah. Are they called finals? Finals time, yeah. And he's what grade? He's in seventh grade, moving on to eighth. How hard are the finals for seventh graders? Oh my gosh, they're ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:30:29 It's just hard. I mean, he has to, right now, last night we did social studies and science. And the memorization for social studies is crazy. He has to memorize every European country on the map. How did you do it that? Terrible. I mean. But did you memorize it with him?
Starting point is 00:30:45 I tried to. So I kind of went old school. Like, I was like, all right, you know what? It's easier for him to study if we do it as a group, almost like back in college. We get the coffee going, put some soft jams on. Then we're like, all right, let's do flashcards. You put soft jams on a college? You served your seventh grader coffee?
Starting point is 00:31:00 Go ahead. That's good. Interesting, too. I didn't realize that. Yeah. And then we just kind of did flashcards and studied and everything. And he was, dude, he is amazing at memorizing stuff. Me, I forgot it like five seconds after we said it.
Starting point is 00:31:11 After I had a few cigarettes, Eddie's time was like, I'm tired. I'm going to bed. Cigarette break. Hey, so what did you, tell me something you learned from studying with him. Fun fact, Eddie is? I learned that Germany is right next to Poland. And on the other side of Poland is Latvia. I didn't know that.
Starting point is 00:31:28 I didn't know that. I thought Latvia was Russia. That I did not know. In the area-ish, though. Yeah, but it's still Europe. Yeah. So I didn't know all that. He could literally look at the empty map of Europe.
Starting point is 00:31:40 And Europe has like 50 countries. I had no idea. You know, France has 12 time zones. What? Yeah. Why do you know that? I don't know. But it's crazy, right?
Starting point is 00:31:49 That is crazy. I'm taking to Europe. Amy, we're going to do the pile next. Eddie, good luck. Are you done? Oh, we're done. We're not doing this anymore. Here's Amy's pile of stories.
Starting point is 00:32:00 I have some security measures you can take to protect yourself from the latest and most common scams. Okay. I feel like this is timely for me. Yeah, I feel like you're just reading out loud what you should be reading in loud. But you know what? If it's happening to me, it's happening to others. Okay, go ahead. So first and foremost, we need to just always be skeptical if a stranger calls you.
Starting point is 00:32:22 Well, yeah, duh. No crap. Hey, also if a white van pulls up, you should always wonder, I don't know if this white van for me offering me candy. Secondly, enable a multi-factor authentication on all your accounts. You almost got that. What did I do wrong? Say it again. Multi-factor authentication. There you go. Yeah. Why that's awesome is if someone logs in and knows your password, they cannot get in even with your password unless they have the code that's texted to you. Yeah, but you know why? That's why I don't check our work email. It's every time I want to check
Starting point is 00:32:52 my work email, it sends me a text to authenticate me. And then I have to, you know, have to enter that in. Now people just... This is why you get scammed. I know, but it's like, I refuse to put a password other than ABC, D, EFG. Which is against everything I stand for. Okay, and then also don't give any personal or financial information upon unexpected request.
Starting point is 00:33:14 That should be done that. Research companies before making a donation or purchase. This is all normal stuff. Let me say this. It's not, though, because I fall for it. Yeah. And then lastly, resist. This is important.
Starting point is 00:33:27 the pressure to act immediately. So don't feel like if someone's at your door asking for money, you have to donate in that moment. Has anything happened to your credit card since then? Not yet. We've discovered it was a scam, yeah. Don't click the picture because it's like in the email that says, hey,
Starting point is 00:33:43 is this you? Like, don't act immediately. Pause. The latest for you guys if you're new is Amy had someone come to her door or knock and say, hey, I'm just trying to get my record expunged. I was in jail. I was in jail for nine years. And Amy cried with him and then it was a scam. It was a scam. It was all a scam, and that's okay.
Starting point is 00:33:59 You're growing from it. I will also say LifeLock by Norton is great, which I use. They call if anything's on the dark web. Lunchbox tried to get Gott by the work email. First, you got got. Yes, I've got got in the past. Because our work tries to sucker us into things. Yeah, they try to get you to click on things.
Starting point is 00:34:16 And then they're like, you idiot, why'd you click on that, you stupid loser? And I'm like, basically. Yeah, basically. Wow. And so then I got another one says, click on this and win something for the weekend. No way, right? No way. I'm like, I'm too smart for that, buddy. And then it emailed two hours later, here are our winners.
Starting point is 00:34:32 And I'm like, wait a minute. There's real winners? Like, you can't do that. You set us up to fail. And then you send out something so no one's going to click on it. And then you actually have real winners. So they need to make up their mind. Are they giving stuff away and they want us to click on it or not?
Starting point is 00:34:45 So they need to redo it or give everybody a prize because I didn't click because I didn't want to get scammed. You're giving them the business right now too, aren't you? So annoying. Yeah, there he is. That's show biz, baby. All right, Amy, what else you got? Okay, I'm going to quiz you on your table manners. Go ahead.
Starting point is 00:34:57 We'll see where you fall in when it comes to etiquette. Talking with your mouthful. Nope. Cutting all of your food up at once. I don't cut anything. I take a fork and I stick it right in the middle of the meat and I lift it up like a lollipop. And my wife isn't humiliated when I do that. That's not not good.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Yeah, I go, and I lift it up. You do not do that in public. Caveman style. It depends at home for sure. And depending on who we're with, will I do that? Yes. Oh, I'll go straight a lollipop on a steak. Eating before everyone has been served.
Starting point is 00:35:26 As soon as the food comes down, I'll have to be elbowed to go like, hey, hey, hey, hey, they haven't got their food yet. You're kind of failing this. I'm not doing it to be rude. I'm doing it because... Because you've got to hurry, because you've got to pay the bill before everybody else gets done eating, so you can get the heck out of there. Now we're talking.
Starting point is 00:35:41 Monopalizing the conversation. Nope, not me. Bringing up controversial subjects are making off-color jokes. Not me. Well, that's from an etiquette expert. Don't do any of that stuff. I got a 60, so it didn't pass, but... You failed.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Yeah, it could be better. Go ahead. So it's graduation time and Taste of Country put together a list of the most played country songs for the year that you graduated. So I pulled ours. Okay. Like Bobby, you graduated in 1998. And your song is Tim McGraw, Just to See You Smile. It doesn't really fit the theme, but I like the song.
Starting point is 00:36:12 It's a good one. Yeah. It's just the most played song of that year. It's not about graduation. Got it, got it. Lunchbox and I both are 99, so we have a mazed lone star. Eddie's is Hank Williams, Sr. I'm so lonely, I could cry from 1941.
Starting point is 00:36:28 Here you go. No? So rude. So rude. But listen, Taste of Country, they didn't like just go easy on this. They did go back to 1946. They did. So if you're like 94, your song's up there.
Starting point is 00:36:39 If you're listening right now, you can go look that up. Good for them. But Eddie's is 1997. Tim McGraw on Faith Hill. It's your love. Tim Dominating then. What about Morgan is like buy dirt or something? Hers is from 2012.
Starting point is 00:36:55 Josh Turner, Time is Love. Time is love. All right. I'm Amy. That's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With lunchbox.
Starting point is 00:37:06 Tell me something good. Edward Davis owns Fated Barbershop in Minneapolis, Minnesota. When South High School, they came up and said, hey, can you help us out with prom coming up, anything you can do for our students? He was like, yeah, anybody going to prom? Come to here, and you get a free haircut. Oh, wow. He was like, look, I want everybody able to look their best for prom.
Starting point is 00:37:29 It's an expense that they don't need to face, and I'll do it for free. What if you were driving by that place today? And they were like, anybody going to prom gets a free haircut? You're driving by today. You're 41. Yeah. I mean, and if I'm shaved, I look probably about 17. You don't, but okay.
Starting point is 00:37:43 I'm going in. I'm trying it. Because here's the cool thing. The very next weekend after he did this, all high school students. Come on in, free haircut. Oh, wow. Not just that high school. That's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:37:52 I know word if the prom king or queen went to his barbershop I'm just saying because I was prom king I knew we were going to get there He was like trying to find a way to transition to that Go ahead I was prom king back in 1999 Anderson High School and I just wonder I wonder if he cut the prom king's hair You still have your crown
Starting point is 00:38:11 Still got my crown Is it falling apart at all? A little bit, a little bit of the foam on the inside is coming off But I think I could re-gluw it You know what they do is they have experts come in to like re like sometimes not even paint but make sure the Mona Lisa is still perfect
Starting point is 00:38:27 or sometimes to reassemble art. Oh, I wonder if there's a prom king hat expert that could do your refurbisher. That would be great. They could maybe do it up put some diamonds in it now. Oh, you actually want to improve it. Oh. I mean, isn't that what people do with their engagement rings? They upgrade? But that's
Starting point is 00:38:42 an engagement ring and that's a diamond. Same thing. I mean, what would you do with a prom king with diamonds in it? I mean, where it places? You wouldn't wear it, though. Every once in a while, big occasions. So to celebrate something, you would wear your prom crown. Yeah, and everybody's like, hey, what's that?
Starting point is 00:38:59 Oh, man, Prom King hat. You just got a hat it upgraded. Got some diamonds now, fresh diamonds. A listener asked me the other day if he really was Prom King or if this was just schick. What did you say? Stick? Try again. Stick?
Starting point is 00:39:13 Better, yeah. Just say it quick. Okay, well, I don't want to say it quick. And I was like, no, no, he really was. Like he really was prom king. We think it was shtick for his classmates to vote him prom. Right. But, Alex Fox, what's the name of the barber again?
