Listen to Thanks, Dad, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hello, welcome to Tuesdays. Morning. All right, let's go around the room. He played easy trivia for lunchbox and ended up winning. And it really bothers him that his hair is thinning. Here is Eddie, everybody. Hey, so I got to tell you, Abby came on last week and talked about a show that she saw.

She recommended it. I was like, that sounds cool. I checked it out. It's called 112263. 2263. It's like the date, I guess John F. Kennedy was assassinated. Yes. And it is awesome.

I got, man, Abby, what a good recommendation. I'm five episodes in out of eight, I think. And, dude, I can't stop watching it. What platform? It's on Hulu. But here's the deal. It's not like on a front page. of Hulu, you got to search it out.

The numbers are hard to remember, though. I know. 1122.63. 2023. And it's 11.22.63. Yeah, that's how dates are written. Dot? No, dashes.

Oh. They got her. Oh, actually. Abby, how did you find the show? Dot or dash. Someone called in and suggested it. Oh. Yeah.

But it's also based on Stephen King's novel. So he wrote a book about it. Yeah. Got it. And you finish it? Oh, yeah. I finished it. in like one day.

Is it new? Yeah, it's new. No, it's from 2016. That's why I don't know how we haven't heard of it. It came out. It came on Hulu in 2016. I don't think Hulu existed in 2016. Yeah, it did.

Yeah, it did. Really? I looked at it up. Well, that's why I couldn't find it. It's back in the archive. It is, yeah, 2016. Hey, well, then you know what? Bring it back to life.

It's so good. And James Franco's in it. I forgot about that guy. Oh, he was great. Because he got canceled. He did. But he was teaching and then a student. No.

So what do we do with shows? Well, I think it's before they were canceled. Yeah. That's okay. Moving on. Sometimes it's hard for him to let things go like his car. He should have traded in years ago. Here's lunchbox.

Guys, we went to the St. Jude thing this past weekend, and I just wanted to say, I never thought Scuba would be that guy. But Scuba is that too cool for school guy. We had the costume contest, and it's a whole party. Do you dress up? Dressed up. What were you? I was a fat, overweight security guard, like a lazy security guard.

You know, like, you go somewhere and you're like, that's the security guard? What are they going to do? So my, you know, my belly's hanging out, my butt's hanging out. Did you make up the costume? No, it's something I bought. Hilarious. It's called shabby security guy. And so we all show up to go to the party and everybody's dressed up.

Scuba, just in a Halloween t-shirt. He goes, I'm an adult. I don't wear costumes. Oh. And it's like, dude, this is a Halloween party. Why are you too cool for school? For kids too, by the way, right? Like, why? Yeah, why?

Well, I haven't worn a Halloween costume, and I don't even know how long. So I wore a Halloween Hornite shirt. I figured that would still be fine. A what? A Halloween horror night? He went to a haunted house one time and he bought a t-shirt from it. And that was his costume. And it's like, dude, come on.

Did you feel ridiculous dressing up? I don't know. I just never. I think the last time I dressed up probably when I was 11, 12, it's just been a very long time and just haven't had any more. Boyne-based trauma? Family trauma and any holiday that ended clearly. So I just kind of don't really pay attention

to holidays. Then that's what you dressed as. Trauma. Trauma, exactly. I mean, it was just like, dude, come on. Everybody dressed up. I'll side with lunchbox a little bit on this. If everybody's dressing up, you kind of need to dress up. I just go to Goodwill and grab a, you know, cowboy hat and something. Hey, be a fat security guard.

Hey, people love my outfit, man. All right, thank you. Lunchbox. Amy, she may not be very good of driving, but when she's not on the road, she's definitely thriving. Here's Amy. So I did a double feature movie night with the kids, and it was so much fun. We even had a little intermission where we refilled on snacks.

In between movies or each movie? In between each movie? So we started the movie with some snacks, and then I had like a great slush sonic drinks delivered to the house for intermission, and they thought I was the coolest mom in the world, like in between the movies. Do they think that or did you think they think that? Well, I felt that way. Okay, good, good, good, yeah. I felt like I was being really cool.

And we watched my spy first, which is such a cute movie. I love it. It's got... It's not Spy Kids. No. It's like this The Rock kind of type character, but it's Dave Patista. Oh, Batista. Okay.

Yeah. So he's this hardened CIA agent guy that... Don't ruin it. I'm not. Uh-oh. Okay. I would just say, I would just rate it and move on. There's him and then there's this cute girl, nine-year-old girl.

And what would you rate it? Oh, four out of five. Okay. And then the other one was? Elemental. It's the Pixar one where there's all the earth, there's earth, fire, water, wind, the elements. You ever see? Oh, yeah, we watched that.

What'd you think of it? I didn't make this. What'd you think of it? We gave it. I don't know if maybe we were just a little more tired at this point coming down, but I gave it three out of five. Because I felt like my skids, it up next to my spy was a little difficult because that one was so. cute. Okay, cool. Double feature's tough, though. That's a lot of watching movies. I agree.

I mean, if I watched two football games, I'm by the middle of that second one, I'm a little bit like, do I even value myself as a human? I just feel gross and, but good for you. You had slushes and kids were happy. Yeah, popcorn. It's like what that story said yesterday. Divorced parents spend more time like trying to make sure they connect with their kids than sometimes parents that are together because they feel like, well, the kids are anyway. We'll connect at some point. Right. Look at that. Yeah.

Look at you. All right, Ray, go ahead. From Mountain Pine, Arkansas. His football team is on a little bit of a skid. He's about to flip his lid. Bobby Bones. Thank you very much. I do want to talk about the iPhone for a second.

We're all iPhoneers, right? No Android's in here? Yeah. So a newly discovered glitch, and this would drive me absolutely crazy, is making people late for work. People are noticing their phones are randomly shutting off in the middle of the night. Yeah.

Uh-oh. That is, wow. I'd be so upset. That would mess me up for sure. When the phone is off, the alarm isn't on, so the alarm won't wake them up. So people have been late for work, people have been going all over the internet going. My phone just shut off.

Which leads to my thing, because that story is from Ladd Bible. I still, I don't have the new iPhone. I have probably two iPhones back. My screen's cracked. I can't find one in because I'm only going to get the one that has the most, like, storage. Because we've got a lot of videos and stuff we put on them. But my phone sucks now. It's like when they trade and went to a new model, it freezes.

Exactly. Dyes super bad. I never was the person that believed that was part of it. but it's like there's a destroy button they push. Did you see the text that I try to send you? And you were like, what, did you get scammed? The same thing. I can't send pictures to anyone.

Oh, yeah. Oh, I get that all done. It's so stupid. It's trying to send a Trojan horse into my phone and steal everything. And I said, hey, do I need to open this? He goes, just a picture. I deleted it. I never saw what it was.

It was just a picture, and I think they're doing that with me, too. I'm like, I don't want any phone. Well, so I would say you could probably use this excuse, even if it didn't happen for the next week to all of our listeners. Just say your iPhone went out. Not here. No, not here, but find the story. Lincoln sent it to your boss.

Be like, this is what's that. What's up? All right, thank you guys. Let's get the show started now. I appreciate you being here. Coming up, Shannon Doa. We love Shannon Doa. If I had two dozen roses and a little...

They're coming in. We'll hang out with them a little bit. Let's open up the mailbag. You send an email and we read it all the air. It's something we call Bobby's mailbag. Hello, Bobby Bones. I heard you recently. you got on Amy's friend's boyfriend to defend himself,

who was accused of spending all day watching Pirates the Caribbean in Looney Tunes instead of working. I have a similar situation, except there is no misunderstanding. My boyfriend is obsessed with the show Bluey. For those who don't know, it's an animated show about an adventurous blue healer puppy named Bluey who lives with a mom, dad, and sister.

The thing is, we don't have kids. It started when he saw on TikTok that adults enjoy the show too, and he watched every episode on Disney Plus. He also follows the show on Instagram, and is planning on buying the Bluey video game that comes out next month. He's not hurting anyone. There are worse things that you can be into,

but I'm worried he's reverting to his childhood. How do I have a conversation with my 30-year-old boyfriend that is a turnoff? That he is obsessed with a show made for kids. Signed girlfriend of an adult Bluey fan. Get him, Bones. Well, I think if this manifests itself into like Bluey role play, that's different.

Sure. That's when it should stop. It's okay right now. If he just likes Bluey, the cartoon, he's watching it, and he's not hurting anything, and it's not like he is losing time with you because he has to go sneak off and watch Bluey, then it's okay, it really is okay.

You may not be comfortable with it. You may be turned off by it. It could be even an ick. But still, there's nothing wrong with what he's doing. Just watch him more. Make sure it doesn't get worse. Just see what's up. You just see if it's a gateway drug.

Right, right. You know your recent breakthrough in therapy? Remember about... My recent breakthrough is my therapist says, hey, you're doing a lot of stuff now. for work that you enjoy because you're finding things where you could feel like a kid. You never get to feel like a kid. Boom. Yeah, like with too much access.

Okay. Like that's your, your fun football show, but also now part of your career. Maybe this is him, something from his childhood is connected to this. And he's connecting with his inner child. And my statement is, let him be. Paul McCartney said it best, let him be, let him be, let him be. And then ultimately, you're not at total. Watch is internet history.

Let it be. If she's not ultimately attracted to it and she can't get over it, then I don't know what to say. Yeah, it's fine. People watch The Simpsons. Spongebob. I love the Simpsons. Adult, but still a cartoon. SpongeBob.

Awesome. Yeah, it's great. Bluey. Whatever. I don't watch Bluey, but a lot of these cartoons, too, have some humor for adults in there because a lot of parents have to watch this with their kids. Yeah, Bluey is funny. Has adult entertainment.

It's him. Lunchbox. It's you? He's his wife? No, no, no, no. No, no. But my kids like Bluey. and so I watch Bluey and there is actual

funny stuff. See? Like real life. There we go. But if you don't have kids, you shouldn't be watching it. Well, and maybe it's his relaxing show. They doesn't have to think too much. I don't know. I'm just saying, let him do it and it's like you find other weird stuff. Then move away. If this is all it is, you're good. All right, thank you. Close up the mailbag.

We've got your email to be Bobby's mailbag. It's a Bobby Bones show interview. We're a big Shandadoa show. Love Shandadoa. Church on Cumberland Road. Not to get me to the church on the coming and a 1989, that's number one for them. Two Dozen Roses. If I had two.

1989, number one for them. Sunday in the South. I can almost hear my mama pray. Oh, Lord, forgive us. I got so many number ones, but they're coming in now. Let's talk to them. Here they are. Marty and Mike from Shenandoah.

On the Bobby Bones show now. Shenandoah. This is cool for us, especially when we get to bring in, you know, musical influences, legends. Here he can. No, you don't come in yelling roll tide. Come in. Come in to sit down over here. Come in yelling roll tide. He's coming to my house and pee on the floor. That's what just happened there. I guess you wore that just for us today.

You know? No, I wear it every day. But I'm also jealous that you get to yell roll tide. I'm jealous that you guys have a... You can yell it. No, I refuse. You could. Yeah. Come on in. Hey, everybody. Good to see it. Hello, hello. Yeah, have a seat over here. Yeah, everything's great.

Do you have ears in? Peace love. Donnie Osmond. Hey, you didn't yell roll tide. We appreciate that. You see he's got his Yeah, Mike comes in and starts yelling Roll tied immediately Yeah, well I saw your shirt From through the glass window over there, so

Yeah, you can't miss it, big and red That's right. So how are we doing? Good, man, how about you? Yeah, grab that microphone right there, Martin, right there behind you up right at your butt. There it is.

Back again, looking better than ever. So I got the... Hey, I was just looking at a picture of us last time we did this show. I bet you've lost 200 pounds between the two of us, seriously. You two? Yes.

Yeah, well, use that mic. You got to use... You got to talk in the mic. We're on the air. I'm sorry, back. Yeah. Commercial. No way, commercial.

We're on the area. No, I'm sorry about that. Sorry, folks. I forgot that. Now he's like funny and he's like charming and hilarious. No, actually, I thought we were at a commercial. No, in the green room, Mike said 250 and I thought that sounded more like it. I've lost 137.

I've lost 73. Really? Yeah. 63, just going in the wrong direction, bro. And how do you feel? Oh, I feel fantastic. Would you consider, Marty, would you consider your haircut still to be a mullet? Well, you know, I'll be honest with you.

I don't know that I ever had a mullet. Because it's not cut like a mullet. Okay, it's not short. Maybe it's not short enough on top, but it definitely goes back. You could pin it and do a little ponytail. I've not seen, Mamie, would you say that the mullet? I see it was mullet-ish to me and has vibes. But it's true.

It's definitely mullin-ish. Mullet-ish. It's more of a mole. Mike, you've got basically the same haircut. Yeah, pretty much. And you guys have, that's what I like, though. It's the same barber. You're not being anything you aren't.

Yeah, no, no, no, it's the same barber. Yeah, I mean, the same gal that cuts my hair today, same gal that cut my hair years ago. Well, you know, you went through a time there, Mar where you had it all cut off short. You guys real hair? Yeah. Yeah. You want to pull it? If you do that, people think my hair's fake all time.

I got to grab it and be like, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, Shanda Doe is here, which, by the way, let's talk new for a second. I got a bunch of stuff to talk about. Okay. But let's do this because I want to play the song first. Obviously, we love two dozen roses, 1989, the original. If I could cry a little harder and get a little less sleep at night. If I had two dozen rows.

Love it. But then you guys did it again, but you did it with Luke Combs. How did this whole thing come about? And how did you get Luke on it? We started getting text from people going, hey, many of you some men, Luke Combs doing two dozen roses. He was already covering it. Yeah, in the show.

That's cool. And to be honest, will you, two dozen roses has become so popular. we knew before too long somebody was going to somebody was going to redo it and just cover it somebody was going to cover it and before it was all over with then we would lose it you know because I mean that's what happens so you did it

yeah so we just figured man look let's let's see if Luke won't want to do it so I started texting Luke back and forth and we started the dialogue and before it was all over with that's what happened he got in the studio and we kind of followed up it's time for the good news

with Amy tell me something Did you know there's a Guinness World Record for being the longest social studies teacher ever? Like having a career in that field? No, I bet you gotta be really old though, huh? Well, Paul Duritz, he's been awarded the Guinness World Record for his 53-year teaching career for social studies specifically. I think Mr. Tolson had that much. He just didn't probably go to social studies.

Who's that? I mean, that's great. 50 years in anything, especially teaching, it's awesome. Mr. Tallisle's my social studies teacher. Oh, okay. He taught. He taught me a generation below. He ended up teaching my sister.

That's crazy. He was there for a long time. He still might be teaching, I don't know. He used to do a thing where he would, it's funny because he was just like a quirky guy, but a good teacher. But he would scratch his ear. Let's say he was scratching his left ear. He wouldn't do it on purpose, but he would scratch his left ear with his right arm and go over his head and scratch it. No, he did that on purpose.

No. And then he'd do nothing where he would tie his shoe. He'd put his shoe up in the chair to tie it and then tie the one on the ground. Mr. Talison, man. He's messing with you guys. No, I'm telling you. Wow. Mr.

Tallison, man. But what's this guy's name again? Paul Duritz. He's 76 years old and he started teaching social studies at Woodland Middle School. Did he break someone's record? Did he set it because he made it up? He made it up. In 1970.

He said, listen, I don't know if he took the title from someone. That's pretty cool. I mean, he says, keep working on what you love to do in life. Keep at it. Yeah. I agree with that. He's a good man there. All right, shout out Mr. Talison.

All right, that's what it's all about. That was tell me something good. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what you're saying. Yep, that's me, Clivert Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football,

or my career in sports media. Well, somewhere along the way, this platform became bigger than I ever imagined. And now I'm bringing all of that excitement to my brand new podcast, The Clifford Show.

There's two golden rules that any man should live by. Rule one, never mess with a country girl.

You play stupid games, you get stupid prizes. And rule two, never mess with her friends either. We always say that trust your girlfriends. I'm Anna Sinfield. And in this new season of The Girlfriends, Oh my God, this is the same man. A group of women discover they've all dated the same prolific con artist. I felt like I got hit by a truck.

I thought, how could this happen to me? The cops didn't seem to care. So they take matters into their own hands. I said, oh, hell no. I vowed. I will be his last target. He's going to get what he deserves. Listen to the Girlfriends.

Trust me, babe. On the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever. for you get your podcast. What's up, everyone? I'm Ego Wodom. My next guest, you know from Step Brothers Anchorman, Saturday Night Live,

and the Big Money Players Network. It's Will Ferrell. Woo. Woo. My dad gave me the best advice ever. I went and had lunch with them one day, and I was like, and Dad, I think I want to really give this a shot.

I don't know what that means, but I just know the groundlings. I'm working my way up through, and I know it's a place they come. Look for up and coming. He said, if it was based solely on talent, I wouldn't worry about you, which is really sweet. Yeah. He goes, but there's so much luck involved.

And he's like, just give it a shot. He goes, but if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit. If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration. It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat. Just hang in there. Yeah. It would not be... Right, it wouldn't be that.

There's a lot of luck. Listen to Thanks Dad on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. On the Bobby Bones Show now. Shenandoah. What song you think gets to the biggest crowd singing, chanting reaction? Church on Cumberland Road. Two dozen roses. Oh, it does?

Oh, yeah. That easy, huh? They sing it from the beginning to the end, too. They don't just sing the choruses. Is it because, though, that song is a little slower and you can hear words? Who knows? I don't... I don't...

I don't know. I guess this is my answer, so I wanted that to be the answer. Cumberland Road. Yeah, it's Cumberland Road. Whoa! Yeah, that's the one. Do they do that?

They do that. Very loud. Where do you play Cumberland Road in your set? Last, last song we do. And two dozen rows is right in front of it. Oh, wow. Leave it with a bang. What do you start with?

What's the first song? Next to you next to me. Dang. There ain't no place that I'd rather be next to you. Who's next to me? You get annoyed people sing your songs back to you like that? It's awesome when they sing it back.

No, like us now. Not even asking you questions. We're just singing songs at you. Yeah, that's pretty cool. Yeah. You know what I like at the end of the song where he goes, there ain't no place that I'd rather be

next to you. Next to me. That's not part. I like that one too. Big harmony there. All right, that they are. Shanda Doe everybody.

All right, thank you. Thanks for coming in, guys. Hey, so you guys are torn like crazy. We've always toured like crazy. I hear you. We never slowed down. But it's getting your. still touring like crazy. You have like 50 more dates this year I was looking or something like

that. Like why? Do you feel more comfortable on the road than at home? No. You know, it's just really kind of, man, this thing, this thing's just really, you know, taken off. You know, I'd left the band for about 17 years and then when I came back, you know, I figured if we was going to do it, you know, when me and Mike talked about, you know, putting the wheels back on this thing, if we were going to do it, you know, let's, if we hadn't said everything, we wanted to say and we wanted to make sure that that we got the music out there and put on the shows that we wanted to do, then man, let's do everything in the world we can to make that happen. Why did you got to stop? I mean, they didn't stop. I mean, I left. But, you know,

all of you together are you guys. So why did, why did you guys stop for a while? Why did you stop, Marty? Well, I'll be honest for you. I think, honest and truth, I think a lot of mine was burn out. you know man i mean you think we were working a lot now i mean we were like mercenaries oh we've still got t-shirts that i survived 310 days with shandah the first year we were out we did 310 days away from home not that many shows but we were gone from home 300 10 days basically same his travel day is still out on the road day yeah yeah sure is and uh you know man after about after about 10 or 11 years of that i mean that you know it was just enough that was enough for me you know i was kind of kind of burned out

And then why get back in? Did you miss it? Did you miss Mike? Mike's caress or what? Not really. No. No, you know, tell you the truth, I had a little bluegrass band and, you know, my brother Tim and I had did the butterfly kisses thing for a little bit and, you know, we just... What do you mean a butterfly kisses thing? Like Bob Carlisle song, Butterfly Kisses? Yeah, my brother Tim and I, and I, and I, you know, we just... What do you mean a butterfly kisses thing? Like Bob Carlisle song, Butterfly Kisses? Yeah, my brother Tim and I. You know, we had it out. In fact, we're the ones who got the Grammy on it. Wait, what? Yeah, butterfly kisses.

I'm going to... Butterfly kisses. Yeah, Bob Carlisle sang it, but I'm going to be ignorant here, and I'm okay, admitting that. Yeah, it was the country, the country got the Grammy. Really? Yeah. Good for you guys, sucker. You should have sang the country, you know what I mean?

You sang that. So anyway, so it was in 97, I think. Huh. In 97. But anyway, the thing about it is, is, you know, we had talked about it. about several years before then, you know, putting the wheels back on it, you know, but we just, we just didn't feel like the timing was right. Did you feel like with the overwhelming resurgence and popularity of 90s country

that when you guys hit and went back out again, that it was, the audience was going to be there for you? No, you know, to be honest, we were so ignorant to that at that point. No, we didn't have a clue in the world what 90s music meant at that time. I mean, we really seriously didn't. That was nine years ago. We had no idea that what 90s music meant whatsoever. I mean, we just felt like, you know, they were still something to say, and we believe we could say it.

There was another tune out there that we could cut, you know, that would be, you know, a smash. And we're in the studio right now. Well, we've actually finished up. We're waiting on a couple vocals to be done. We just cut a killer with Allison Krause. somewhere in the vicinity of the heart? Oh, no.

No, this is a brand new one. And I mean, it's just, I mean, it will absolutely rail the lumber. I don't know what that means, Marty, rail the lumber. That means it's, it's. It feels like it hurts. It's, I think it's. It does kind of sound like it. Yeah.

Like it make you emotional? Killer. Is that what I mean? Yeah, it's very much. It's a love song. I mean, and it really is. I mean, it's another, it's another vicinity of the heart. and I want to be loved like that all together in one.

You know, and it's just, I mean, it's just got a lot of, it's good. It's a good tune. When's that coming out? When we hear it, yeah. Well, you know, we, I don't know when it's coming out. I have no idea. I can do it like 10 seconds up for us? Yeah.

And I was saying it like 10 seconds. No, can't do that easy. Okay, see, he's not giving it to us here. Okay, that's okay. You don't go to jail or what? Music jail? I've been there. It ain't fun.

So, speaking to rail and lumber. If Bubba can dance, railed my lumber. Is that how he said? I don't think I can say that. Railing lumber is what that is. And that's really actually not vulgar at all. It just means, you know, it's bringing the timber. Exactly.

You're like bringing in the mail. Absolutely. All of my job is. You got it. You can dance. I can too. Yeah. Do you get tired of a song?

Heck yeah. Are you kidding me? Do you not? You know, me and Marty wrote that song with Bob McDill, of course. Yeah, well, why would I not like that song? I love that song. It's all that on TV. Yeah.

And see, that's one of the reasons why. I met you know when you. I think that's the tempo too. Mike, that's it. Yeah, I got it. You got it. All right, go ahead. Finish your story there.

Bobby can dance. Anyway, the tempo on that, it's a floor on the floor. It's that addictive beat. It's that underlying thing that people get. And, you know, when you did that, I mean, that's, That's what attracts a lot of people to tempo songs. You know, that song almost didn't get written. Why?

We were actually writing with Bob McDill. We'd written all afternoon with Bob. We had to leave that afternoon going somewhere on the road, and we had to catch the bus. And we'd been writing all afternoon and hadn't hit on anything. And Bob, we'd already put our guitars in the cases and getting ready to go. And Bob said, hey, man, you guys came out of a bunch of shows in those bars down there. He said, I've been seeing on these country music TV shows people do. doing all these line dances and stuff like that.

He said, are people really doing that in these bars? And I just said, I don't know how they're doing it everywhere else, Bob, but, you know, the place we read, there was two guys, and I can't remember one of them's name was Buddy something, and the other guy I can't remember. But they always, they knew how to do all the, they knew how to twirl the girls. They get out there on their dance for it,

they could, you know, do all the dancing. It wasn't lion dances. But anyway, you know, there would be girls literally standing on the side of the stage waiting for the song to be over, so they could go out and get them to dance with them. And so anyway, Bob said, well, that's pretty interesting. He said, let me run to the restroom real quick, and then we'll go. So he goes to the bathroom, and he comes back in and said, hey, you know what?

I've got an idea on what you were just saying about those two guys. He said, I got a song title. And we said, what is it? And he said, if Bubba can dance, I can too. And he said, we'll make those guys be Bubba. And so we got her guitars out, and we wrote the first verse and chorus and had to go. And then Bob wrote the last verse by itself. but I mean

It gave me confidence I mean if he hadn't asked that question I feel like I can too You know One of my idiot friends is doing something It's not even about dancing Like if one of my buddies can do Why can't I not try it

You guys don't even know what you motivated I wouldn't be here without that song Well You know it's funny how things Turned about It just kind of depends on You know How you want to handle anything in life

I reckon And even if you're going to rail some lumber Prican go to town Rail the lumber. Mike, how's it, how's the drama coming? Good. I just bought me in you said a D-D-Dubias, man. I love them.

It's a brand. Oh, is that a good brand? I love them. For me, that's the cat's meow. Again, wow. You never heard of the cat's meow? Does that mean like it's... They're the best.

The Beesnees. Yeah, got it, got it. So, we're going ahead to bring y'all a book of Shantadoism. Yeah. Do you ever wonder if we would have named our band something different, people would have easier time spelling it? probably yeah i've seen it spelled every way it can be spelled on the marquee too i mean what's really good is when somebody goes uh hey uh is you what can you tell me where shannon's at oh yeah

shannon doa yeah that's we still we still get that people are knock on the door of the buss and is shannon up there yeah i'm gonna i want to talk to shannon tell him he knows me and it and shan's a dude obviously yeah you guys um muscle shoals growing up with that music culture around you Can you like hear that old blues like in your recordings from like the 90s? Like did any of that rub off into your country music? You know, I think one of the greatest things that when we started doing what we were doing, you know, Jim Seals came from a background of rock and roll and real soulful stuff. You know, Stan came from a jazz perspective and Ralph was as well.

and Memphis Delta Blues and coming out of bluegrass, Mike and myself, you know, we grew up around bluegrass music and a lot of the soul that was in in bluegrass music, you know, it really, it really helped a lot. And I think it kind of, there was like a forging of a lot of that that was all put together that came together. It's kind of like the, uh, uh, the, uh, the, uh, the, uh, the, uh, uh, the, uh, uh, the, uh, uh, the, uh, uh, the, uh, uh, uh, the man of constant sorrow cut, you know.

Man, it, you know, it sounds like right off the press of Ralph and Carter Stanley. Oh, I am a man of constant sorrow, you know, and it's just, you know, where people actually, you know, they heard the hurt

and what they were singing about. And, of course, up through the Appalachia, you know, that's, there was a lot of that, that went on. There's a lot of coal mining that went on and not safe coal mining and in just a hard way of living. And people took to that and it meant a lot to them. And when people would write songs that would be local songs that were there that just for people to listen to, they didn't do it for any industry. The stuff that they would write was, you know, they were singing to one

another because it, you know, everybody identified with it. Everybody knew what they were talking about. It was like parables, you know. Whenever I hear, you talk about bluegrass, and you can tell me I'm completely wrong, but when I, the lick, you know, church on Cumberland Road, like it's almost like a bluegrassy lick in the guitar part there because it's so fast, you know, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, any of that bluegrass experience affect your guitar playing with some of the way you play guitar? Well, it does. I mean, Jim and Mike would always make fun that the way that I would play rhythm, but, you know,

that the only way I knew how to play rhythm was to keep time, you know, and it may not be on the stroke that, where they felt like it needed to be, but, you know, I just kind of felt like it, you know, and for some tunes, it didn't fit, you know, but to me it did, you know. Like Sunday in the South didn't fit, maybe? No, Sunday in the South fit well. Well, I'm wrong. I'm wrong again. This is stupid. I'm stupid.

And we're going to go and go. All right, there they are. Shannon and Doa, I've been here, and they've been a really great guest. So quickly, you guys have, I'm going to just promote these shows real quick. get tickets at shanadoa band.com, but Georgia, Tennessee, Midland, Texas, Clinton, Tennessee, Bowling Green, Kentucky, I would spend money to go watch you guys.

No, no, no, I'm not giving you money now. If you need a loan, we can talk interest rates. But it's like, you guys are awesome, and you were a big part of me musically growing up, but you're also still good now, and that's what's really cool to see you guys out still, like performing at a level that's just fun. Like, you guys and Brooks and done.

Like I can see both of you guys perform, and feel like I'm still there, but also enjoy what's happening now. Well, you know, the thing that we always try to do, Bobby, and we've always tried to do it. You know, look, you know, people have spent a little bit of money to come see us, and we appreciate that. And, you know, actually, you know, we were hired to entertain people. And we like it when folks, you know, sing and they sing along

and have a good time and clapped their hands and hoop and hollering, that kind of stuff. And if we can get them to that spot and people, you know, really enjoy themselves and they sing along. You know, at the end of the evening, whether it was 90 minutes or two hours, depending on however long we play. But at the end of that 90 minutes or two hours, at the end of the evening, they feel like they were a part of a show

instead of just sitting and witnessing one. You know, look, I've been to shows that I actually liked a lot. But there wasn't a whole lot of entertainment in it. You know, who I went to go see, they did what I wanted them to do, and I enjoyed it. But there wasn't a lot of entertainment. in it, you know, and that's their groove. That's, you know, that's the way they do it.

But, you know, as far as what we do, it's, it's real high energy, and we try to get folks involved in what we're doing, like I say, and, man, we love it when people do, and we've been, it's been coming away pretty good here of late. You know, the crowds have gotten absolutely humongous. And, you know, we just, brother, we're still chasing the dream. That's what we're doing. We're still railing the lumber. Me too.

I'm railing it right now. Yeah. That's not what you're doing. If I go, Oh. Do that. Oh. No, you're not doing it right.

Oh. Oh. Yeah, that's better. That's better. That's better. You know that song? I don't. I'm singing your song.

Must not be saying that. Yeah, it's it is. He just read. He didn't give me much to go on, bro. He's just re-riding to go back to the church on the Cumberland Row. Bam, bam, bam. You ever heard that one? Yeah, we.

He's been rocking all night, but don't you know, you got to get me to the church on the Cumberland Road. I wrote that one. Me and Jimmy Dickie, 1964. Look, everybody go watch Sanadale. I love these guys. That's why I can sit here and give them a hard time because I enjoy their music, but I also enjoy them as people. What I want to say before we leave here is one, check out their new song. We can't wait for the new music.

You let us know when it's done. I will. Back in, you know, 90s, 2000s, whatever. I have friends that I have really healthy rivalries with, that I am like, that's my dude, but I'm also like, we're rivals, we're competing. Do you have any rivalries with any country artists? I don't know that we have any. Your contemporaries.

You got awfully quiet. Well, I was thinking. And I was too. You know, I think the good thing about what we've been able to do is, you know, we just always seem to have a good relationship with, you know, with everybody. Little Texas? Everyone to fight those guys? Oh, we used to beat their butts every day.

Boom, that's what I'm talking about. That's all I need, and we're out of here, baby. Just kidding. Hey, look, the revival tour, shanadoa band.com. Gets that new music done. Let us know. We will. Seriously.

You guys go to these shows. I wasn't kidding about that. When we get it done, I personally bring it. Well, you know. I know you said you were playing in Midland. You say that was a date, right? Oh, yes. Yes.

Okay, so. I'm going to do that to every answer. Anytime I hear, you know, Mama knows. You know, Mama knows. Your song? That I. Sometimes they don't know their songs. I sing it perfectly to them.

They didn't know it. Right. That's one of my favorite songs ever. What? What? Mama knows. Mama knows. Yes.

And anytime I hear it, it takes me right back to Midland Odessa to Big Daddy's Catfish and Chicken because I went there for spring break one year. And I worked like I just was a hostess. And that's where I go every single time in my mind whenever I hear it. Music's funny like that in it. You can hear a song and boom, you're right back. And you're rail and lumber before you even knowing it. I think you press wood, honest and truly said it best.

The song remembers when. Yeah. It literally can transform and take you back to places that you never thought it would. And all of a sudden you'll hear something and bam, you're right in the same. Even the same smells. No, I smell the hush puppies. That's what I'm saying. Even the same smell.

You know. I'd love to have some chicken fingers right now. I'd love to just have some lunch right now. Yeah. Maybe I want to grab some. So here's the thing. Set me up. I'm going to play a church on Cumberland Road.

tell me a story. When I say tell me a story about Church on Cumberland Road, the song, performing it, what story comes to mind first? Juanona Judd told me at the TNN Viewer's Choice Awards. We'd had that. And then we'd had, I think, two dozen roses Sunday had anyway. So we were performing. And she said, you know, are y'all going to do two dozen?

I mean, church on Cumberland Road? and I said, no, I think we're going to do, I want to be loved like that. She goes, you know, Churchill-Colmer-Roe was pitched to us. We, you know, we knew that wasn't for us. And I thought myself, no, that don't sound like a judge tune to me. Anyway, I said, man, I'm glad y'all passed on it, you know. That's crazy. Yeah, I mean, seriously, I'll think of that sometimes, and that's what comes to mind.

And what about next to you, next to me? What comes to mind when I say next to you, next to me? What story or idea or memory? Well, I know that we never had a fiddle in the band up until that point. And, you know, coming out of bluegrass music, you know, I thought, you know, man, it sure would be nice. My daddy was a fiddle player. I mean, it sure would be nice if we had a little fiddle. And plus Mark O'Connor fiddled it.

And, man, son, he could, you know, he can carry the mail too. Anyway, but, you know, about a time we got done with that, and you hear all the fiddle licks on it, man, it was just, I mean, you'd think, man, surely the goodness, man, this is, you know, the song's already there, the fiddle just kind of put the icing on the cake. And I don't always like icing, but that cake, I liked. A lot. Super good to see you guys.

See you soon. Keep killing it. We love you. Thank you, Bob. Appreciate you having you. Hey, we appreciate you. Yeah, there they are. Shandoah, buddy.

Yeah. Here's a voicemail from last night or the night before. I just want to say thank you. I'm an idiot, and I dragged my husband to the casino Friday night to go to your show only to find out that we were a week early. So instead of going to your show, we decided to stay and gamble some, and I won $500. So thanks to you. I'm a big winner.

I wouldn't have gambled otherwise. That's funny. I will not take credit for that because if anybody else did that, they're probably going to lose. I don't want to take credit because I don't want to take blame if it happened the other way. Correct. But yeah, the show is Friday night in Tulsa. out. There are no tickets left, but that's hilarious. They went a week early. Way off. Yeah, that's

way off. Thank you, though. We're really looking forward to that show. We'll be in Louisville coming up to in the next month or so. That's really the only show you can buy tickets to. The rest are sold out, but I appreciate that. All right, let's do a morning corny voicemail from Jennifer in Oklahoma City. What happens when you touch Dwayne Johnson's butt? You fit rock bottom. Okay, pretty good. Here's Amy's pile of stories. Okay, there's a pilot, and I don't know if he's genius or this is a waste of time,

but he founded something called dial a pilot, and it gives nervous passengers a chance to book a 15-minute call with him, and he calms their nerves. That is amazing. Right. While he's flying? No. I don't think he's flying.

I hope not, because then it's not as amazing. A little distracted. But he assures them, the whole plane is very safe. $5 a call? What is charging? I'm trying to call right now. That's why I'm asking. I don't know the cost.

You'll have to Google Dial a Pilot. And he says that if you want to, you know, not feel like a lot of movement in the plane, sit at the wing. We've heard that before. Why don't we just get him on the show? Can we call dial a pilot and get this guy on? We'd have to pay for that. His name's Kyle.

Each call is 15 minutes long and cost $50. What? $50. Hey, but here's the thing. We don't want to pay. It's promotion. Yeah, we'll get up for free. I would love to talk to this guy.

I think this is a great idea. Okay. Okay, cool. Yeah, what else? Well, he said, try to get a window. seat to keep your eyes on the horizon, especially during takeoff. So, I don't know, I just thought it was super cool of him. And I also saw this poll, speaking of flying, the worst thing you can do on a plane, the worst.

In the bathroom. Yeah, that's probably what. No, that's not the worst. Take your shoes off. Nope. It's any personal grooming, like if you clip your fingernails, like that's what people say. Oh, it's the worst for everybody else. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Got it. So clipping nails, painting nails, anything. Eating tuna. Yeah, onions. Yeah. I mean, there's a lot of eating smells that are bad. Yeah. Okay.

So we're all trying to get... Bringing a baby that won't stop crying. That's for sure. A bad mood baby, yes. We're all trying to get a better night's sleep. And the latest sleep hack, the trending on TikTok is called, like, lettuce water. And you drink it before bed. This is just people messing with you guys.

Is it though? It's literally just people messing with you. It sounds disgusting. But people swear by it. All you have to do is boil water, add romaine lettuce to it, and let it steep for 10 minutes, and then you drink the liquid. So, anyway. Is that lettuce? There's no harm in trying.

The one that put this out? Yeah. Holy crap. Okay. Yeah, pretty gross. So Reba was on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. And he did a game with her called Textual Behavior, where you go through like your text messages, what it's like to communicate with people. And Dolly Parton came up and she said, oh, yeah, no, Dolly doesn't text.

Dolly does not text. She does not. No. No. Really? No. So you only can get a hold of her on the landline. Facts.

Wow. Facts? Really? Facts. Really? Really? You can only fax her. I don't have her telephone number. And I asked Kenny Rogers one time.

I said, do you have Dolly's number? He said, no. I can vouch that you can't call Dolly. Really? You can send a fax to Dolly's fax machine. I don't even know if it's in her house. Or you can call Dolly's people. They weren't joking about the fax machine?

No, no, no, not at all. That's crazy. She still has a fax machine at her house. And I kind of picture it. Like, I think she seems like the types of like handwritten stuff, and she can handwrite it out and fax it on over. No, you just type it and fax it. No, you can't, no.

Listen, that's just, that's supposedly what word on the street is. She still has a fax machine. That's what she uses. So you just write, Dolly, call me, and then faxed me for it. But she won't call you. It's like Bill Murray. You can't get a hold of him. There's just one phone that you call and you leave a message.

And then maybe he hears it, maybe he doesn't. Oh. Have you not heard that? No. Yeah, you can't get hold of Bill Murray. Just leave a message to this random number. That's so cool. I wish I had that.

You can. You can start doing that. I kind of do. but it's my own number. Is that it? I'm Amy. That's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news.

With lunchbox. Tell me something good. Angela lives in Pittsburgh and has some disabilities. It makes it hard for her to take care of her yard. And so the weeds are getting out of control, and the city of Pittsburgh kept giving her a fine. Hey, got to maintain your yard. Another fine.

Another fine. And she's like, look, I can't do it. I'm disabled. So she finally went to the news. And the news did a story as like, oh, this lady keeps getting fine. Look at her yard. She needs help. And people in the community, they came out and they helped.

And they cleaned up her entire yard. Boom. Cutting the grass, ripping out the weeds, redoing everything. It's nice. Nice on the news to do that, too. When you worked at the news, Eddie, would you guys look for good news stories ever? Yeah, always. Like, to balance out.

Yeah, I mean, the news station I worked at, News 8 Austin at the time, it was all about positive news more than like the bad. Bad, bad news. Of course, if there was like a car accident, a bad one, we'd have to cover it. But yeah, we would, dude, we did news stories on, like, trees all the time. Like, look at this tree. It's 150 years old. When you wrecked the news van, were you covering a positive story? No. I wrecked the news van coming back from lunch. So you took the news van to lunch? Yeah, man. I lived in the newsman. That was my car. I was like a cop, you know, like always in the...

You weren't like a cop, but okay, go ahead. So you took your news van helmet night? Uh-huh. Yeah. Man, I could go play golf with Bobby and the newsman. I guess you always have to be ready. I bet they thought at the golf course. The news was covering something there, huh? And so someone tried to wave you out, like it's clear, it's clearer. It's clearer. Then you pulled out and someone nailed you.

Yeah, I was in the middle lane turning left and there were two lanes, you know, that come in ongoing traffic or whatever. And somebody said, hey, you're good to go. And somebody was on that lane coming. Boom. T-boned me. If I'd have been the car that said go and go, I got out of their car. Oh, yeah. Oh, they did.

They didn't stick around. They were gone. Well, that's a great story, though. Love it. Appreciate that. Everybody's stepping up for their neighbors. That's cool. That's what it's all about.

That was telling me something good. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what I'm saying. Yep, that's me. Clifford Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, my basketball and college football journey,
