Speaker 1 (00:11):
Hope you had a good weekend. Welcome to Monday Show,
Moran Studio. Morning. Well, let's get started and go around
the room and see what's up with everybody. His future
and sports gambling isn't very bright and seeing him without
a hat on is a rare sight. His name is
producer Eddie. All right, you know our phone screener, Abby.
She's been looking for love, right, It's been a storyline

(00:31):
on the show over and over. I have the answer, guys,
I saw it. There's a new TV show coming out
on Fox. I think it comes out on March and
it's called Farmer Wants a Wife. It's like The Bachelor,
but a bunch of farmers. Abby loves farmers. This is
right up her. Ally, she needs to get on the show. Abby.
Will you come to the microphone. Please have two questions
for you. First of all, good morning morning. Question one,

(00:55):
would you go on a reality dating show? This one
sounds cool. This sounds like number number two. Would you
like to day to Farmer? Yeah? Okay. If this show
us successful, they'll do a season two and we'll make
some calls. Would you go on Farmer Once a Wife?
I need to do research. If I can do research.
Can I look at it anything? You mean, like what

(01:17):
it's about? No? No, it's basically farmers and they look
would you go on that kind of show? Cool? Is
there a single guy? Abby will go on like she, Oh, Abby,
you were in glasses today. Oh, they're the blue light ones.
It looks like you're going to a shooting range that
pink or clear. It does look like Okay, Abbey, it's

(01:38):
good to see it. It doesn't look like she's about
to get a show. Take her air rifle out. This
next man also goes by Jason Gibble, but when it
comes to making business deals, he can't even get a
nibble here. He is lunchbox. Everybody. Well, Bobby has been
encouraging us to spread our wings and fly chase our dreams.
And I just want to let you guys know I

(01:59):
maybe leaving the show. I've applied for a new job,
breaking news. Okay, yeah. Netflix is hiring flight attendants that
pay three hundred and eighty five thousand dollars a year,
and so I have put my name in the hat.
And they say they need independent judgment, discretion and outstanding
customer service skills, which all the things I possess. And
it says you need to be able to lift thirty pounds.

(02:20):
I can lift thirty pounds. What about experience as a
flight attendant? I didn't say anything about that. Does Netflix
having an airline? Like what is it? Yeah, because you
fly talent around they have private jets. Oh, you fly
talent around. And then also executives. So this is a
double edged sword, guys. Not only am I going to
be making three hundred and eighty five thousand dollars a year,
I'm going to be in front of execs at Netflix.

(02:41):
And eventually they're gonna be like, hey, you ever acted before?
And I'm like, well, actually I have. I was in
bad out of Hell. I won't say that. So I'm
gonna meet the stars. They're like, hey, maybe you should
come on set and try a couple of lines. So
I'm gonna be making a lot of money flying around
the country, and you really should apply for that job. Yes,
I'm going to. I hope you get it. I hope

(03:03):
you get a call back. I mean, how awesome would that?
Would you leave for that? Guys? Are good money? Would
you leave for that? Yeah? Okay, you heard it here
first everybody. Maybe by the time you get that job,
when you get taught. Christley back in here to be
the guests, the host cool maybe from his luxury prison,
can FaceTime a minute. All right, lunchbox, thank you. While
we may never question her ability to drive, her toughest

(03:23):
task last year was keeping a fish alive here. She
has amy everybody. So I had booked a guest for
my four Things podcast that I was very excited about.
Her time is very valuable. She's an expert in her field.
And I started recording with her, and we'd been talking
for fifteen minutes, and I realized I didn't hit record.

(03:44):
Oh that's not good again, is it. That's a first
of all, it's on brand a little bit right, Like, No,
that's a fullness even once in the four years. No,
I'm just saying, in general, in four hundred episodes, you're forgetful. Yeah,
you're a forgetful person. But go ahead. Yeahhh and so
as more defied obviously, but it got me wondering what
would what would Bobby do in that situation? Would not

(04:05):
have told them, Oh, I would have just kept going
and then eventually revisited in the middle of other things,
some of those first things, and then I would have
reset it. In the middle to use back at the beginning.
That's right. Smart. So, but I wouldn't have said anything
because I wonder one of them the whole time, going,
oh my god, what an idiot, because you know for
sure they would have been doing that. It would have
been like, what an idiot. I'm never doing this podcast again.
I'm telling everybody else about this podcast that it's only

(04:26):
round by an idiot. Well that's what she did. Then
you stopped, and so didn't. I wasn't recording, said, I
just said, just keep going. I know. Oh no, also
part of my personality and get us at all that
idiot stuff. I mean talk about I still I lost
sleep over it. It's like, oh the worst, I'm the worst.

(04:50):
But I forgive myself. Yeah, but I said, we started over.
She was gracious, was gracious. I'd have sped through that stuff.
I'd got off that podcast pretty quick. I bet you
show your recording this. Okay from Mountain Pipe, Arkansas. He's
gonna golf Pebble Beach with Eddie. Let's hope that he's ready.
Bobby Bones, thank you, thank you, thank you. Well, this

(05:13):
is what I would say. And I wasn't gonna lead
with this this morning. But I just got this text
from my friend s J says, Hey, we're having a
staff discussion because allegedly you recommended to Emily the Criminal
to watch, and people on our staff are saying, not
touch your feelings, that it was not good. I replied,
wasn't me. I haven't seen that movie. But who on
the show recommended Emily the Criminal? Did you guys all

(05:35):
liked it? Yes, we loved it. I thought it was
very entertaining. So what do you think about it? Then
when they say they didn't like it, then they don't
have very good taste? Are they idiots? Yeah? Maybe they
didn't really watch it. Yeah, may I don't know what
they were expecting it. It's not gonna win Best Picture,
but it was an entertaining fun like a movie like
you're like, oh like, And I did say it's low budget,
so don't expect like high quality. But that storyline's amazing. Yeah,

(05:55):
but don't like take it down and go, well, but
but how do you liked it? He didn't be awesome?
There you go, right, that's what we're saying. We're about
your man. WoT back? Oh, Tom Petty, I think so
you guys are sticking with that. Yeah, all right, my
original one too, and I'll roll over to this one
as well. So sometimes I'll make cookies at home. There's

(06:16):
still something I do on the side, and I learned
this from my wife. But if you I like chokie cookies,
I don't like make a peanut butter cookies. I hate
peanut butter, so usually I only do chocolate chip. And
at first I didn't realize that they had to be
so I can't like for him to get hard in
the oven. The first couple of times I did it,
and so I would push up like a fork on it.
It would be wayte softly, like they're not done. The

(06:36):
thing is they got to come out and then harden,
I didn't know that right. Took me like two batches
to figure it out. So I finally I'm pretty good
at getting them out at the right time. But then
I take a little bit of sea salt, just a
tad on the cholie cookie and just put a little
on the top. Game changer. Game changer, dude, I didn't
know salt on chalkie cookie would be good. Are you serious?
That is the most disgusting. Actually, I was at a

(06:58):
restaurant a couple of weeks ago, my wife ordered a
chocolate chip cookie and I took one bite of it.
It had salt on it, and I spit it out.
The absolute worst thing I have ever had. Had sea
salt in the box. Like my wife gets, it's a
little bit of box. I got like this, like salt,
baby cookie, bab I'm just your elbows. It's good. It's good.
You guys washing cookie. Get out. That's it. Time to

(07:21):
open up the mailbag. Something Hello, Bobby. I played guitar
and I sing, I'd like to get your thoughts and
critiques on my ability to do so. I watched Heath
Sanders interview on how you discovered them and thought, why
not give it a shot. Not that I believe I'm

(07:42):
bound for stardom, but I would just like an honest opinion.
I don't do social media. I'm a rancher in Southeast Kansas.
I decided to just record something with my phone. I'm
feeding cattle. I don't have a guitar here, so this
is the best I can do at the moment. Love
the show. Can't wait to get your opinion. Best regards
at him and he said, clip him singing, So we'll
critique it right here, go ahead. I guess everything that

(08:06):
change except what would you go? Billion? Good day dreams
A dream? The baby you are my favorite memory of
pretty good. Yeah I'm bad. If I just heard her

(08:27):
singing around the ranch, I'd be like, dang it, I'm
You're a good singer, really good ranch singer. I feel
like you have to get out and sing a bunch
more because he's falling off his notes um where he's
hitting it and he's just but it's pretty good. I
don't know that you're going to get discovered from that
kind of clip. I think if you get a guitar
and you go, when you play a few places, you

(08:51):
get some reps under your belt, you feel more comfortable
singing and holding some of these notes. I think you
have a real shot to have a shot. You know
right now well that you ain't there, but you do
have the promise of you know instinctually how to sing,
so now it's just learning really what to sing and
how to sing it. Bones. What if he does videos

(09:13):
from the ranch while he's singing it. I think if
there's a he's on a cow or cows are around him,
people love authenticity. So if he's and he is authentically
a rancher. I would record on the ranch. Oh yeah,
I'm picturing him singing while he's loading hay or building
a fence. Sure, or if he can just kind of
like lure the cows in and make it sound like, look,
every time I sing, the cows come in and then

(09:34):
they all just like sit down and they start swaying knocking.
For that's what I'm talking about me now, y'all trying
to choreograph. There are a lot of people that sing
really well on the internet, and you can be one
of them, or you can practice and get really good
and be somebody who sings good on the internet but
also can sing good in person. In this so, I
think you're a couple steps away, but I think you
have the promise to do it. But right now you

(09:54):
ain't there that I mean, you can't get there, but
we appreciate that. I like these I I would encourage
more people to do them, but I don't want I
don't want to crash our inbox. Would crash your inbox
if people started sending his clips. Yeah, maybe you send
us a link. Do that. Don't send us an attachment,
but link it to like a YouTube. Or something. If
you're like and in the clip be like, hey, Bobby,

(10:14):
I was just wanting to see if you're critake me
and then what could take him on the air. Yeah,
that'd be awesome constantly. It was a fun game. But
we can find a star. What do you think of
that guy, Lunchbox? It's a no for me, dog, it's
a noo for now. But you can tell he knows
he can sing at a bar in Kansas. That's fine
in his hometown. Guys. It's also on a telephone. But
that's all we have to go with, right, right, Eddie,
I mean, I'm just telling you he's not good enough. Okay, Yeah,

(10:37):
for what though? If he wants to be like Heath
Sanders and be discovered he ain't there. Well, I don't
think Heat Sanders wasn't a good even then as he
is now. So right, it's we're all growing every day.
I think if he puts the time in, he can
actually get pretty good. Thanks, Adam. Appreciate that email you
guys if you want to send us a link to
you performing, but in the clip, you gotta be like, hey,
Bobby Bones, this is me. Don't just send me a
clip of you from like nineteen ninety six. He cat
fishing me. All you have to do send it to

(11:00):

Oh man, Why am I not getting this? I grew

(17:55):
I'll tell you that Dena Carter isn't ever fifteen. It's
in correct. Martina McBride was a fourteen. Oh. John Michael
mcgomery's a thirteen. Trusia Eater was at twelve. I forgot
about them for sure. I had tia. Your number three
answer of the most influential artist of the nineties was
better you dominate a buddy. I should have just gone

(18:22):
through my seed case from you, right, Eddie, here's your
song for winning the game. So the Chris Leaves are
in jail. She's in Kentucky, he's in Florida. Yeah, And
so we started talking about if you have to go

(18:43):
to jail for a long time, how long how long
do you wait before you move on or your spouse
moves on from you, if you go on for thirty years,
or does it matter what crime you committed. If it's fraud,
maybe they don't leave you. If it's murder and it's
a way, yeah, probably they do. So lunchbox, if your
wife went to jail, what's the longest you would wait

(19:04):
before you said, I'm gonna go and get divorced? One year?
See that to me sounds way way short. Yeah, this
move way short. No, No, she can get out in
a year and we can be together. But if it's
more than that, I mean, I can't sit around forever. Guys,
eighteen months, she gets an eighteen month sentence. Sorry, are
you gonna wait the year first? Or you like, well,
since it's eighteen I might as gonna move on with

(19:25):
the life. I might as well move on with my life. Oh,
can you have to understand, like when you're in prison
the world changes so much in that time that I
can't How do you know you hear everybody that gets
out of jail? You watch from people, Yeah, you watch
people gonna have been in there one year. You watch
prison shows and they're like, man, what is this a phone?
A computer? Like they're blown away And so I can't

(19:45):
stop time, like I can't stop living life. So you
asked your wife the same question. Yeah, here's that clip.
I'd wait for ever. No, no, no, be for real.
That's stupid, that's stupid. Let's say I'm sentenced to ten years,
that's a long time. I'd wait ten years. I'll be real,
maybe ten ten max. Okay, because I think you'd be

(20:08):
sent as to tim but then you get out in
less fifteen years. Okay, this game is stupid. I've done Okay,
because I said that if you guys just a one year,
I'd be like, oh no, oh, if I were just
for one you wouldn't even wait for me long year,
here's a long time. Dang it. Would you look for
another wife or would you just be looking to have
some fun and maybe you would just stay with her?

(20:30):
I would be looking to have fun. But you never know,
like what if you fall in love it happens, or
get somebody pregnant? Right, that does happen. And that's the
problem is you can't do any of that when she's
in prison. You when she's behind a plastic like you
go into there's a plastic partition between you. Guys. It's like, man,
is this really love or is this just like fifty years?
We might answer, wow, there's fifty years. You couldn't last

(20:53):
forty that's a weird number. Well, you said fifty. I don't.
Let's be realistic. I mean, honestly, if it's twenty years,
your life's almost over too. So you can't wait twenty years, Eddie?
How long a you're waiting for your wife forever? Okay,
that's what I said. That's want to say fifty to
give another answer. Why can you not be honest? Why?

(21:14):
Why does your wife laugh at your one year That's
what's weird to me, Like she's just oh, okay, because
she's like, oh, she knows him. That's crazy. So the
Chris Lais are in jail, we thought it'd be fine
for Lunchbox to go and visit Todd. Chris Lay Todd
has been a guest host on this show before. What
did you find out about how this works? So you
have to be on their visitor list they have. They
have a list that they put and if you are

(21:35):
on the visitation list, you're allowed to get into the
prison to visit him. So the only way I'm gonna
get in is if I can get a hold of him,
write him a letter and get him to put me
on his list and say come on down, because I
can't just show up at the jail. They won't let
me in. I bet you anybody famous in jail then
might have people showing up all the time. Yeah, correct,

(21:56):
makes sense. Okay, so you have to write a you
can't call Can you call people? Meaning is there a
certain time where you're like, hey, I'm gonna now I
think they can call you. Yeah, because like I don't
know how they but I mean they have some of them.
But this is a nice jail, right, have a phone
in there. They may have FaceTime in that jail. I
have no idea. Yeah. Well, so you're gonna write a letter.
You have the address, the place I got the address,

(22:17):
I got everything. I just need an envelope and a
stamp and we're good to go. Where's he gonna find
that we get? So here's what. You can't email him
because don't they have like computer time? Yeah, you would think,
but I don't have his email. I don't know Todd's email.
Is it like Todd Christy at jail dot com dot
com jail dot com. Okay, I'll try um, So I'll
do this, then write the letter tonight. Okay, bring it

(22:37):
in tomorrow. We want to hear the letter. And if
we're okay with it, you're not gonna get us some trouble.
We'll mail it off and see if we can get
you on the list. Okay, and if you don't like
my letter, we can. Will you help me edit it.
I'll write you a palm like at at Abbey but
she never you know, I'll write it, okay tomorrow to Todd.
You're a letter to Todd and you'll go down there.
If he replies back in, I'll lead tomorrow. That's how

(23:00):
it mail works these days. I like it. It takes
a little longer from maild well yeah, yeah, but I
mean I'm saying, like, the day after I find out that,
he says, yeah, you'll lead the next day. A teenager
wins a six hundred and thirteen thousand dollars Lucky Seven's
Fast Money jackpot when the ticket was given to her
by a friend. A teen at nineteen years old won
six hundred thousand dollars well as a gift. It was

(23:22):
a gift. Yeah, they need to like talk to this teenager, right,
it was a gift. That's unreal. The ticket was a
gift a teenager. It's crazy. A gift. He handed me
the ticket and said he bought it for Christmas. Scratched it. Oh,
like remember when our buddy we used to work with

(23:44):
one two hundred thousan dollars and he's like, I'm bout
a car. We're like, d D, dude, what are you doing?
What are you doing? You gotta be taxes? Like about
a car? I'm going to trip? Yeah yeah, stop it,
stomp it. Yeah, that's crazy. Okay, you're Samy's pile of stories.
If you're trying to fall asleep faster and you walk
watch TV before bed, you might want to try suspenseful
dramas because the study was just done and researchers found

(24:06):
that those that watched that type of TV before bed,
they fell asleep the fastest of any other categories like
documentaries and other stuff that sounds counterintuitive. Yeah, or you
want to get your heart rate up, you get nerve
as you get nerve before bed, or you don't know
what's going to happen, so you just fall asleep. Other
researchers say, I watch Freddie and Jason the worst researchers
I've ever heard of, or films. But also it didn't

(24:29):
say quality asleep, but just said you've fell faster. And
then I have a list of suspenseful dramas in case
you want to check one out. Ahead, The Old Man. Yeah, yeah,
that's a great show. A drama. I mean, I guess
I wouldn't call that a suspenseful drama. It's a series
more than a move. It's a little suspenseful though, because
you don't know what's the second going on is. It's awesome,

(24:50):
it's awesome. It's like the best shot seen in a
long time. Go ahead, if you google suspenseful TV, these
shows come up. The Old Man, Jack Ryan, I'll watch
The Old Man before you go to bed, don't. I did?
And one I wanted to keep watching. Episode is one
of those shows that finished like I gotta watch another one.
And two you're just like, oh my god, I'm don't
that's this is the worst research I've heard. Just move
on this. We should fire this research company. Okay, all right, Severance, Yellowstone.

(25:12):
Those are other shows which. Speaking of Yellowstone, the Wall
Street Journal did a whole ride up on how cowboy
fashion has gotten so big in cities and suburbs simply
because of the show Yellowstone. One fan, who lives outside
in New York said he started watching Yellowstone and then
really got into the look. He now owns five pairs
of cowboy boots, eddiehears cowboy stuff every day, Dallas Cowboys. Okay.

(25:36):
The Wall Street Journal also talked to a fan in
Germany who is now dressing like a cattle rancher. But
he's not what a loser I know? And you're not
even a rancher. There's a difference in wearing it. Don't
wearing chaps to work in Brooklyn because you watch the show. Okay,
all right? What else? I got the five best country
breakup songs of all times? All right? Number five Stay Sugarland, don't.

(26:00):
This one's awesome and you forget how good it is
to con hear it again. They recorded this in one take,
just Christian and a guitar in her with a vocal
in the studio. It's a crazy story behind it. We
did a bobycast talking about this. That's a good one.
What else, George straight give it away? You know a
little too upbeat. I like my breakup songs to be

(26:20):
sad and slow, and I think you could sing this
and actually think it's not sad. Yeah, but in the
song they're definitely breaking up. Absolutely, just give it away
for sure. I like mine to be sad though, feeling
like slow tempo. What else? Keith Whitley I'm over you
or just Keith Whitley insert most every song, most every

(26:42):
song at number two, Dolly Pardon, I Will Always Love You,
And this wasn't really a romantic breakup song, though she
wrote this as a hey, I appreciate you, but I
got to go now this Porter Wagner, it is good job. Yeah,
that's what that is. So shared like a friendship breakup,
Like I would write this ready if we ever broke up.

(27:03):
Oh well yeah, because we didn't make out, but we
didn't still a lot of time together. And Roy Acuf
did this in the forties, but the most popular one
is Willie Nelson Blue Eyes, Crime in the Rain. This
is one of my favorite songs of all times. And
this one's just literally one of my favorite songs ever
period of all live play the roy I kept crying,

(27:26):
that's upbeat. Well the horns throw it out a little bit,
good by party, iw weird now still sad though it's
like the Looney Tunes horn on the back. I know
that throws it off, but okay, Amy, is that it? Yeah?

(27:48):
Well maybe that's my vile. That was Amy's pile of stories.
It's time for the good news. Ay, so in Chester
Cannticuet and an artist and solved something downtown that's super cool.
Locals can use it. Visitors. You hop in the wish booth.
It looks like an old school phone booth. Yeah, well

(28:10):
like a UK phone booth. Oh yeah yeah, the red
It's very cute and you hop in and you've got
a direct line to the universe. Doesn't even calls to
coin like fountains I took from it. Make all the
wishes don't cause you anything. You just got to get
in there, you know. Somebody'sn't get their p though, of
course some drunk dude. Well, and I'm wondering too, because
is it I don't know if it's recording them, but

(28:32):
are like people hopping there and it's like, okay, you're
God and they're like saying things or whatever. It's not
a confession booth or they're gonna arrest people. But I
think it will be cool if people could leave some
sort of message and then somebody else could get in
and see it and go I can actually help that person,
and then they could do it. It's that next level.
But fifteen hundred wishes have been recorded in the booths

(28:53):
so far. And recorded, so they're recording them. They are okay.
Christopher Owens, he's the artist that created it, and he
said we need hope now and this is a whimsical
way of going about it and hopefully inspiring people. It's fun,
it's positive. I'm for it. It didn't cost anybody any money.
That's a good deal. That is what it's all about.
That was tell me something good. Let's go do Amy's

(29:15):
Morning Corny, The Morning Corny. What do you call an
old apple? What do you call an old apple? Granny Smith?
That was the Morning Corny. It's a Bobby Bones Show interviews.

(29:37):
In case you didn't know about to have Hardy right
here in studio on this stage. Hardy's got a couple
number ones that he has as an artist. I mean
not to count the ones he's written for other people,
but you would know this song called one Beer. He's
got a song with Landy Wilson right now called wait
in the Truck. Here's a love of that. He's a

(30:03):
great songwriter, obviously a great artist. He's been on on
tour with Morgan Wallen. He's got the long hair, the
dark glasses. He's like a cooler version to me. Let's
admit it. He's a cooler version of me. Here he
is celebrating his new album, The Mockingbird and the Crow
that is out. Now Here is Hardy on the Bobby
Bones Show, Now Party. What's going on, buddy? How are
you good? Man? Good to see you again? I think

(30:23):
it's I saw you perform a couple of times, but
I haven't. I guess we haven't seen each other personally
in a while. But man, I tell you what, you
go hard, It's awesome, and it's like you go, it's
it's really cool to see I guess we talked on
the phone. You told me you like believed in ghosts,
or you texted something about ghosts. I had a ghost
story at at my house. Is this a real story
or it is a real story. Man. I was always

(30:46):
like apprehensive and skeptical. And there's some stuff that happened
that I can't I literally cannot explain. And I lived alone,
so I collect Native American artifacts like arrowheads and stuff
like that. And the short story is I found on
a place on the Cumberland River that was very potent,
and the river had gotten really high for a long
time and then it dropped and so basically it had

(31:07):
shaved away a lot of the dirt on the river bank,
and which is what you do when you go look right,
you wait for a big rain and it washes away
new dirt and new find arrowheads in it. And a
buddy of mine and myself found this spot and it
was just there was like a ton of broken arrowheads,
a ton of arrow It was just really really potent
and like fresh, and we both kind of had like
a We were like, man, this is like spooky because

(31:28):
it's like the first time it's been revealed, you know,
to the earth or whatever. Anyway, so we found some
stuff and I took it home and like a week later, man,
I mean there's a million stories. I woke up, all
the lights would be on in the house, all my
countertop appliances would be unplugged. What do you mean unplugged
like litter from the plugs like blender, toaster, microwave lamp.

(31:50):
Was this when you had enough money for a housekeeper?
Maybe they did that. No. I lived completely alone, and
it would be like like it was on the night before,
like when I went to bed, like a Mica Away,
nobody unplugged a Michael way um and were you drinking
the night before, dude, I'm telling you. Callie and I
hung a big mirror um and the next day we

(32:11):
went to look at the mirror and there was a
giant scratch across the front of the mirror um. One
night we were watching Yellowstone. And there's no way you can't.
There's no way you can justify the scratch. I want
to be able to, but I promise you I cannot.
I have no idea how to justify it. To tell
me the Yellowstone when that before I go on any farther,
go ahead. We were watching Yellowstone and we heard a

(32:31):
noise downstairs and she was like, what was that? And
I was like, I sounded like a chair got like
scooted across the floor. And we had a chair from
our kitchen table that had been like a scooted like
ten feet out from our kitchen table. And when I
tell you, like, I lived in Joelton in a house
in a cabin that's driveway was like a mile and
a half long in the middle of nowhere. Nobody knows

(32:53):
where this house is, Like, it's completely impossible that it
was it was a person. Plus the doors were locked
and everything. So your theory can't prove it right or wrong.
Is that it's possible that from your collection of native
emeric something effects Yeah, you brought something home, yeah, and

(33:14):
why do you still do you still have the other thing?
So we eventually because I dumped them more immediately since
I thought that I would get rid of them. I
had one moment Callie quit staying with me because she
was so freaked out because it was it was always
something like it wasn't just those things, like it was
like a light would turn on and off downstairs while
we were awake, like it was crazy stuff that was
never it wasn't like polter geist like we saw anything

(33:34):
or anything crazy. But I had one There was five
days in a row that I woke up through two
fifty nine or three in the morning on the dot.
And the last morning I did it, I got up
out of bed and this this house kind of it
just had a loft with a master bedroom, and it
was really creaky. It was a cabin. And when I
got out of bed and turned my lamp on, something
jumped from the loft of my house to the floor

(33:55):
and ran through the house, and I jumped out of bed.
I thought somebody, I literally thought somebody was in my
hand house. It was a big thing, like a human
sized thing. Wasn't a mouse, No, it shook the dishes
in the dishwasher kind of deal. And I jumped up
and like went through the whole house and and then
we went Callie was like, let's get some sage and
just try to see if we can sage the house.
And we saged every corner and I went in there

(34:17):
with like a purpose and was very like stern and
was like if we have something of yours or blah
blah blah, like we're sorry, but we're you know, it's
time for you to leave. You said it out loud, Yeah,
laughed like an idiot, felt like yeah, and um, we'd
never had a problem again. But my mom, who has
never told a lie in her entire life, would go
out there occasionally just it's like a really pretty place

(34:38):
in My parents live here, so they would go out
there to like hang out or something when I'm there
or gone. And my mom said that she would go
in that bedroom, the one with the mirror scratch, and
that the lamp would turn on and off and she
would be like, Okay, I'm leaving, and then as she
would go to walk out the front door, that the
lamp by the front door would turn on and off
after after we saged it. It's almost like an electrical problem.
It is a cabin, you know. I mean, it could

(35:00):
be a huge coincidence. But the chair scooting across the
floor and then scratch on the mirror and the thing
jumping from my loft, I cannot explain that, And it
was one hundred percent real, And I can't prove that
it's not real because I wasn't there. Yeah, I obviously
you're not believing ghosts at all in the form of
how people describe them. I struggle with it. I obviously

(35:20):
think there are things bigger and my brain doesn't have
the capacity to understand things that it simply has not seen.
I mean, I think there's so much that we can't
even imagine that we don't even know is out there.
I think science can explain it. I mean, we didn't
know radio waves existed till like a hundred something years ago.
That's a great point, but science then prove they did,
so now we do so, I guess until we have

(35:42):
some sort of machine that proves so. Yes, and that
is a valid point. Until I like counterpoint you with going,
but then science did go that's true, and so I
don't have that, so I still can well, I think
that a lot of it is like people think it's
all like hocus pocus, and so they think it's silly
to invest a lot of money in like time to
you know, invest in stuff that could try to prove
that they were real. I think I can't prove that

(36:04):
you're not right. And my only story is my grandmother
adopted me for a long time, very instrumental in all
my life, lived with her for most of my life.
And she left me a guitar and it was the
righting a guitar, but she played it in church and
she never took a lesson. And you know, I went
to a Pentecostal church when I was young, before I
went to a Baptist church. I grew up in a
very rural town in Arkansas. And so she left it

(36:25):
and it was really all she had to leave. And
I remember I was like talking she had died and whatever,
and I was like, okay, if you send me some
kind of sign or whatever, that thing and the freaking
guitar fell over. Oh really it felt, and I dude,
now did I I don't know. I don't know if
I did something. I don't know. I don't think I
kicked it. But the guitar fell over. Yeah, but I
still struggle because I can't see it, touch it, feel it.

(36:48):
Sids can't show me to just go yes, it's absolutely true,
but I can't tell you you're wrong. I just go dang. Now,
listen to one more story, lunchbox. Tell him your story,
and then you tell me if you think he's legitimate,
because he's held onto the story for fifteen years. So
am my buddy's house, who lived like four houses down
for me spending the night One night and I get
up to go to the bathroom and I walked down
the hallway and a ghost pushes me in the closet,

(37:08):
locks the door, and it gets really cold in there
and I cannot open the door. And there is a
ghost because we would be there after school and you
would see footprints on the stairs in the front door
would unlock and lock with us just sitting on the couch.
No one's touching it. And these guys do not believe me,
but happens. Tell them where the ghost touched you? Though? No, no,

(37:29):
there was no I just tell you, it shoved me
in the closet and I could not get out, and
it got really really cold in the closet. I can't
prove it didn't have him, but he lies so much
that just based on that alone, it's hard to believe it. Look,
Hardy's here. Do you have a new record? That's that's out?
We have a lot to talking about music wise. We
kind of got on that sidetrack there, But so as

(37:50):
far as I would just imagine with you being such
a prominent songwriter, and I don't know if you do
this to yourself, but do you put extra pressure on
yourself when you put out a project of your own
because people know you for being a great songwriter? Am
former a little bit because it's all had to be
really good because we know all the great stuff you've
written for other folks too. No, I agree. I think
that it has to beat the stuff that I've had
cut on other people are else. People would just constantly
be like, oh, why didn't you put that out yourself?

(38:12):
But you know, like my record cycle is usually two years,
and so I mean I pick usually, I mean it
still has to be me, you know, but I pick
like the best ten fifteen songs of that those two
years or so. That for myself. But I haven't you
feel the pressure for sure, anything you've held on for
over a year. That's something they made the record. Um
oh yeah, Jack, I think was the first song that

(38:34):
we cut and that one you still stayed in love
with even a year later. Yeah, because that's hard. It
was kind of the first song that it's the records
half country and half rock. That was the first song
that kind of sparked the rock side of things, so
that we kind of based that's the cornerstone of the
rock side of stuff. So we held onto that one forever.

(38:55):
On the Bobby Bones Show, Now parties here a new record,
The mocking Bird and the Crow. It is out. You
guys should check it out. How do you do? Because
there are seventeen songs on this what's a good number
of tracks? And then why do you cut it off?
Or why did you add a couple more? You mean
just to make a record? Yeah, I mean seventeen? Why
the number? Why? I don't know. I mean, I really
we had I think I had like seven and seven

(39:16):
and Joey Moy and Seth were like, let's see if
we can get a couple more, and it just sort
of turned out to be that way. And for it
to be like a half and a half thing, I
wanted it to be like a decent amount on both sides.
You've really walked that line, though, because again you say,
and I've heard the record two halfs rock, halfs country,
but there's also kind of a blurry a few songs

(39:36):
on there too that could be both. But I think
you've created that space and country music where you listen
you go, well, yeah, sure it's right, but I could
also hear this like and in the opposite. I mean,
you ever get those guys go out You're too rot
for this place, man, A little bit. I mean, maybe
not that like direct, but yeah, I mean some of
that when you're doing Hicks tape where people like, I

(39:57):
don't know, man, this' a little too crazy. It probably
can't work or did nobody care enough not I wasn't
big enough for anybody to care yet, But I mean,
I definitely feel like there's some apprehension, especially in the
country world. I've actually been the rock world has been
super super cool and has accepted me more than I

(40:19):
honestly even thought they would. And I'm very thankful for that,
But I mean there's definitely been a little bit apprehension
from some of my songs being too heavy or whatever.
You grew up in a small town in Mississippi, What
was that town like and what did people listen to
either on the radio or CD? Like, what did you
grow up around? I grew up, Well, Philadelphia is awesome,

(40:39):
by the way, I like you hear a lot of
people talk about like I'm glad I left that, you know,
blankety blank town. But I loved my hometown and a
lot of people most people in Philadelphia love Philadelphia. But man,
I my dad instilled rock and rolling me when I
was like a little, like a really little kid, So
I became super obsessed with it in classic rocket until

(41:00):
I kind of discovered like MTV and then could discover
music on my own. You know. So I grew up
listening to rock and roll, but country country was around.
But I will say, like a lot of people loved
rock and roll, and there were two or three there
was a weird little music scene, like a lot of
like a weird amount of people could play instruments, and
there were bands and stuff in this little small town.

(41:20):
And so a lot of people. Rock and roll was
really big in my in my hometown for sure. In Philadelphia, Mississippi,
did they have like a fake Liberty Bell Mississippi Liberty Bell. No,
no Phillies. But I've always wondered about that. The high
school team was the Eagles, Like none of that. That
would be funny. No, I've always thought it'd be kind
of funny too, But we didn't adopt anything from the
real Philly. I don't know why you are loyal and

(41:42):
you are You speak from Mississippi a lot like I
do for Arkansas, right, like Arkansas. A lot of what
I do I represent constantly and consistently. Why is that
so important to you to be the guy from Mississippi? Man?
I just, first of all, I don't There's a lot
of really big artists like Elvis, Robert Johnson, whatever, there's
a million a faith hill from Mississippi, but there's not

(42:03):
a ton And I just I like making my hometown
proud and making my state proud, and and um, I
don't know, man, there's just something inside of me that's
extremely proud to be from Mississippi. I think it gets
a bad rap and gets it's the butt end of
a lot of like you know, redneck jokes and stuff
like that. And I think taking pride in that is
cool as opposed to you know, getting getting offended by

(42:24):
it or whatever. But it's a state full of small
towns that doesn't have a city, and it's just really unique.
There's like one degree of separation between everybody in the
whole state. Like you can meet some person that knows
somebody you know if you don't know that person. It's
it's really special. I mean, you guys in us are
like nine fiftieth to every pole and everybody. It's like
Missisippi Arkansas. It's like the fattest, the most liters pregnant.
But only we can say that, and we can only

(42:46):
make fun of it because we're that's us. Yeah, and
I but if somebody else does, man, I will nothing
that fires me up. Like when somebody goes after Arkansas. Dude,
I'm with you, man. So if you take your glasses
and hat off, can you go incognito? Uh? The gotique?
It gets me still. I've tried. I did stagecoach, but
I wore a m I wore like a big quicksilver

(43:06):
hat and a mask and one of those sunglasses. The
pit vipers, the big flashy like so hot man in
the mask. I like almost suffocated. Um, but I did it.
I did it for like a whole day, and it's
it's I did that. But I don't know. I haven't
tried it too much. But maybe well I can't see,
but I've done it before. Like I'm is your vision bad?

(43:27):
It's bad enough? Yeah, mine is really bad. And so
I've taken my glass off to walk through, like walked
through like an event for our our company. And even
my bosses didn't know who I was. They were like, hey,
oh really, I had no idea. You wear a hat mostly,
don't you? I mean, haven't had enough? Yeah enough, but
I would have great hair. Check it out. I can't

(43:47):
see it from there. Yeah you know, I thought you
said you have gray hair. Great, you have good hair?
You have good had of hair? Yeah? No, great, I
have great hair. I have some great do you do?
Are you? Do you have your hair on top? Yeah? Yeah,
I have a good because you do have Oh you
have a great Wow. He has a great hair too.
Mostly people to wear hats all the time are balding, dude,
I you know you get that from your mom's side.
The family have you ever heard that, Like, if your

(44:08):
mom's brothers had a full head of hair their whole life,
then you probably will. And both my mom's brothers have
and or had a full head of hair. So I'm
I think I'm I'm in the clear. I think, do
you ever plan to cut the because it's not really
a mullet? You just have long hair? No, just regularly long?
Has it always been that way since like high school? No,
I had like they call the Bama Bangs. Dude, I

(44:29):
had the frat boy like justin Bieber. I cannot see that.
You know what's annoyingable? I think I have a picture
on my phone. I'll show you at some point. So
it's it's terribly annoying that Hardy was also an awesome
athlete too. It's like these guys come in that are
that are everything that I never was. Very talented, awesome athlete,

(44:50):
can like sing, play guitar, creative, and it's like I
should never even like this guy. I literally shouldn't like
you because I have all this like childhood angst from
people like you. But I do. I like you a
live I appreciate that. Yeah, it's look at me, I'm
girling therapy. H how about that? The Hey, the name
the mocking Bird and the Crow just why um basically
signifies the struggle I have with um the very water

(45:14):
down term is or is you know country artist versus
a rock artist? Um, it's it talks about the mock
and bird singing songs sound like other songs you've heard,
which is kind of sticking to the format, and that
get bleeds into the songwriter side of me too. And
and you know, writing songs for the radio, and maybe
you know the struggle I have, we should I write
more songs and sing more songs for the radio versus

(45:34):
the crow, which kind of is not as pretty and
it you know, it doesn't sound as as um pretty
as a mak and bird. It kind of flies its
own path. And it's just a song that talks about
the internal struggle I have with that. On the Bobby
Bones Show, now the party, Hey, what do you do
for like mental health? I would assume as an artist
you I'm gonna insert my story in your story. There

(45:56):
are insecurities. You're a creative, you have time and spaces
you need to go and be by yourself. Is any
of that true? By the way, Yeah, would you consider
yourself insecure a certain certain parts of your life. Maybe
if I do, if I am, I don't know if
I know it. But I go to therapy. Okay, I
have a therapist. Good for you? What do you? What
do you do? From the hell? Do you go to therapy?
You go? You ever go away? Ever you have somewhere
you want to go away too? Yeah, I just got

(46:18):
back from Mississippi. Um for two weeks. I like to
deer hunt, but like the arrowhead thing I do, I'll
recharge alone. UM. So if I can spend like one
day or half a day alone every week, that's like
huge for me. I just be alone with my thoughts
and stuff. And I don't know it just it helps
me a time. How does your new wife do with that?

(46:40):
Because my wife does not need to be alone, right
I do. I'm very much an alane person. And it
was took a long time before she actually understood it
wasn't about her, right, and not that she was ever
deeply offended. She was just like, I don't understand. I
was like, I need to be like alone for a while. Yeah.
It has nothing to do with your significant other. It's
just all about you. Did you have any sort of
communication barrier there about that or did she get it? No,

(47:02):
she's dude, she's awesome. I mean we she and I
did like the premarital like you know, um, therapy or
counseling or whatever, and and um we talked about a
lot of that and most of the stuff we already
knew about each other. But no, she's she's awesome. I mean,
if you know, like I said, once a week I
can just be like, hey, I'm gonna go do a
thing and I'll see you tonight or something, and she's
like totally cool with it. And she has her things too,

(47:24):
you know. Um, well, yeah, no, she's she's super super
cool about it. Any songs on this record have to
do with being like in a relationship and in love.
Iron Country is, um the only love song on the record.
It's the only song about a girl. Well, I wouldn't
expect like eight or nine or anything, but I figured
it at some point. Yeah, there's one you live alive
and you create from it. Yeah, sure, so something would

(47:45):
be in there about that. Yeah, Iron Country? So what
so what does that one though? Iron Country? Like, what's
what's the place like? There? There? The hook is therein no?
Iron country, but there's a yo U and it talks
about like, uh um, like I know how to do
all this stuff. I know how to build a house
on a hill and and just all these things. You know.
It's got a country twist on it, right, it's got
the good old boy redneck twist. But it's basically like,

(48:07):
but what's the point of all that if I don't
have somebody to do it for and to do it with.
So it's like, there ain't no iron country, but there's
a wild U. I slipping through the channels a couple
weeks ago, and I saw you on wrestling. Yeah, and
I have I have a USA network is one of
my main channels. I'll flip through because my ship, my
show's on USA, and so it just comes through like
you do your like radio channels. And I flipping through

(48:29):
and I see you like going through the ropes, and
I'm like, what is happening here? And then I worried
you we're gonna get hurt because I mean I would
assume those guys are I mean, they know what they're
doing and they're big and strong. Yeah, so how did
you because is WrestleMania You're performing at something right or
you did, um royal rumble? Yeah, do you know what

(48:50):
that is? It's where they come down one at a time. Yeah,
and then they throw each other last one. Yeah, we're
doing that next week. I think that's pretty cool. Yeah,
did you like, how do you practice? We rehearsed it.
That's what everybody says. Wrestling is real, but it's rehearsed.
And because that guitar was real, dude, that was that

(49:12):
really happened, you know what I mean? And um, so
when a guitar gets broken over a human's back or
you have to hit him in a certain spot. He
the guy was like, just hit me high, hit me high,
don't hit me. He was like, hit me on the
wide part of my back. But uh and he was
like make sure it's just flat, like dead flat, and
he was I remember him saying, the harder you hit me,

(49:32):
the worst it's gonna hurt. So you might as well
like swing for the fence and really try to hit
me as hard as you can. Did you ever practice
that guitar breaking though, or was it a one time shot?
I did? And they they had this like stunt guy
backstage and he put this like vest on and he
was like all right, give it a shot. And he
was kind of like, I think he never thought I'd
swung anything before in my life, and he was like,

(49:54):
so when you grab it, you grab it down here.
I'm like, dude, I'm broken guitars before, and he played ball,
he would be best stuff. So um anyway, so he
did it, and I did it as hard as I
could and it didn't break. And then they all panicked.
This was like an hour before I was supposed to
do it live, and I know what they do is
I don't know, I'm gonna say anyway. They take the

(50:14):
guitar apart, they take all the heavy stuff or the
metal stuff from the inside, and then they hot blew
it back together, which is still like it's not like,
you know, still still, but um, I did it. And
then the guy like panicked and he was like trying
to coach me how to like swing it and stuff,
and I was like, dude, I got it. And they
gave they had a different guitar, and it just I
think the one that they gave me at first was

(50:35):
a little more put together when you relieved when it
broke when it was live, more relieved than I've ever
been in my life. I was like, I just I
wanted to be like, yes, right there, um, but it
was awesome, dude. Also, they should take the metal stuff
out of a guitar. They don't even be convinced. We
know that these are great athletes. Yeah, well you know,

(50:56):
can you imagine, like, no, the guitar needs to be legitimate.
You need to hit him with guitar less Paul, Yes please?
Uh And then you came out no injuries, no shoulder injuries, nothing,
You're flying around a little all right, good for you,
good man. Hearty's new records out. It is called The
mocking Bird and the Crow. What are you gonna play
for us? There? I'm gonna play a song off the
record called Happy. I think it's my favorite song on

(51:16):
the record. All right, here we go. Hey, you wrote
that one by yourself? Yeah? Why what what inspired you
do that by yourself? And what? Like? Tell me about
the song what it's about? Um Man? I just had
like a actually like at one point I wanted to
write like a children's book, and I was thinking about
some ideas and and um, a publisher told me one time, Uh,

(51:37):
we were talking about doing drugs. We weren't doing drugs,
but we were literally just talking about it. A kid's
booked older guy older than me, and he was like, man,
he was like, if there's any advice I have for you,
don't use a week's worth of happiness in one night.
And that always stuck with me. And it was in
the time of like cutting the record, so I sent
it to to Seth and Joey and everybody, and and

(51:58):
uh said, I really want to put this on the
record on the countryside. That's awesome, man. The mocking Bird
and the Crow the tour dates he starts in February.

Morgan wall and go to dinner? Oh? My record label? Nice?
He looks at them as he says that does Hearty
drive a cool car? Yeah? This is where you answered,

(52:40):
what kind of cool? I have a I have a
Jack Roush edition of two fifty Super Duty, and I
have a camouflage wrapped uh F one fifty King Ranch
with thirty eight inch tires. It's a lot of gas,
that's what I hear. That's a lot of gas. Not
a car. Oh no, not the camouflage and see him.
I took the camera truck to my hometown to go

(53:01):
deer hunt in the last two weeks and it was
a huge mistake. It was a huge mistake. Two more,
what's the coolest part of Hardy's new house? Oh? Oh man, um,
the my like studio room. I love it. I have
all my cool trinkets and stuff in there. Arrowheads, yeah, tons,
they stay in there opposite into the bedroom. Probably will go.
And finally, how did Hardy get famous? I have no idea.

(53:25):
That's that's why it's good enough for us. There is
Hardy everybody albums out, The mocking Bird and the Crow.
Go check it out, go see him on tour. Thank
you guys for hanging out with us. It's at this
time every morning we catch you up on what we
think somewhat important or interesting. It's our version of the
news Bobby's Bes stories the price of eggs so high

(53:48):
that people are apparently trying to sneak them across the
border from Mexico, where they are cheaper at three dollars
and forty cents. A thirty count carton of eggs is
as steel and wire as Mexico. Well you know what
also stole in warlds Mexico, your head if you're not
careful eggs. I don't even like eggs that much. Oh,

(54:08):
come on, I don't eat eggs that much, So this
story to me, I'm just not an egg guy at all.
I was trying to explain the price of eggs to
my son because he likes to have four eggs a
day every day and work what kind like a scrambled
over easy, like where the white is cooked but the

(54:29):
yolk is running. Yeah, over easy. I would not know
how to make that. Yeah, I can scramble, that's easy. Yeah. Yeah.
So did you say, hey, easy on the eggs. Yeah,
I'm like, hey, we should cut down to two a
day and then like have a piece of bread and
some fruit. And it just always has to be so
many eggs. Did you guys go across the border? Eddy?
When you were a kid to get stuff, Oh yeah,

(54:50):
all the time. But and like fruit, you can buy
fruit over there, but you had to take the seat
out because you couldn't bring the seat over to America
because they don't want your planning it. Yeah but why
what was that reasoning? Yeah, they just said, because they
don't want you to reproduce these this fruit that's native
to Mexico in America. Yeah, so if we buy avocados,
avocados grow avocados here. Yeah, but they were so good.

(55:11):
Mexican avocados are delicious. Really yes, would you sneak the
fruit seeds in? Oh yeah, like there like keystir like
in jail. Oh yeah, but here's the thing though, just
under the seat smuggle. But here's the thing though. They
had a knife though, so like if they caught the avocados,

(55:31):
they'd either it was either they were in a good
mood or a bad mood. They're in a good mood,
they would cut it for you through the seat out
and here here's the avocados. But if they're in a
bad mood, thank you, those are mine. They just kept
the avocado. Oh yeah, what else would you take across
the border or would you go like I had some
friends that would you get dental work done in Mexico? Bad?
This battles a battle one dude. So we went over
for lunch. I was in high school and I went

(55:52):
with a football player and he wanted the bad stuff,
the peed stuff. He wanted like steroids. Yes, And so
I didn't know he was doing this, those three of us,
and he disappeared while we were having lunch. He didn't
tell us. He went to the pharmacy to buy this stuff.
And we're coming back and me and my other buddy,
we're like singing along on the radio, and the customs
guy's like, oh, this is crazy, Like three high school

(56:14):
kids at two o'clock, two pm. This isn't right. Pull
over stall number one and we're like, okay, no big deal.
So we sit there, da da da dada da. They
checked the car, they don't find anything. All right, you
guys are good. Take off and then my buddy's like pale.
He's like white faced, the football player, and he reaches
in his pocket. He's like here, man, put down the
glove box, Like what is this. He's like, I bought steroids,
Like I just I was so scared. I was so scared.

(56:35):
I'm so glad they didn't catch us, Like, dude, we
could have gone to jail. Yeah, what happened? If would
they were just taking him. I have taken all of
you where they have taken even him to jail. I
think just him because it was in his pocket. But
there's no way that they can isolate like that. We
didn't know. I mean, if you're with them, I think
they just kind of treat everyone the same. Now somebody's
the driver, do they put you in jail if they
find something like that? And we were already on the

(56:57):
American side, So if we're going to jail, that's fine,
going Mexican. It was a different story. What's that story?
I don't want to Okay, Okay, Well that's the story
from Fox five San Diego. A woman has given up
on driving after being involved in thirteen car accidents before
she turned thirty. She says that she's pushed her luck enough. Amy,
that's what I thought. Well, Amy's the lolder than thirty,

(57:17):
says can't be her? Yeah, just a chat older. How
many car accidents have you been in in any form
or fashion? Minor fender bender to big wreck, Lunchbuck's done
a bad wreck once where he was sitting in a
drunk driver smashed into the back of his car. Lucky,
lucky to live. We were doing the show. We weren't
live on the air, but it was what we're working together. Yeah,
crushed into him, crushed into me, and he was going

(57:38):
about fifty five. Never hit the brakes and they had
to get a tow truck to the front of my
car and the back of his did get him out
of my trunk because he was so far in Wow.
And Bobby called me right there. He's like asking me
something about work, and I tell him and then he
was like, what are you doing? I've just gotten a rank.
He goes, why didn't you leave with that? I'm like, oh,
I mean you you called that's the headline and dang,
Bobby got crushed. How many wrecks have you been in

(57:59):
though your whole life? Two? That one end One When
I was in college, I was coming around a curve
and there was a yield sign and I didn't. The
car in front of me yielded and I wasn't ready
to yield, and I hit the back of you wasn't
ready to yield. You just you just didn't yield. I
wasn't ready. There was the other night we were Kayle
and I were turning into a driveway and it's dark,
it's nighttime, and okay, I dipped it and I'm just

(58:21):
the light turning into the driveway across. So I'm on
the it's on the left side, so I got a
cross and she starts yelling, oh my god, wad There
was a car coming our way but no lights on
almost nailed us. I never saw them. And we pulled
them the driveway and I'm just slow, you know me,
Yeah slow, And she's like, oh my god, and I stopped.
Don't drop myself, what's up? And then I saw the

(58:42):
car just go right by us, man, which was nuts.
I've been at one. I just got no. I rearinted somebody.
One time it was your fault. There was an accident
and I pulled over a hill and cars were everywhere
and it was like I had to slam. I didn't
slam quick enough because it had just happened, okay, and
so I hit the back like there was like three
cars that did it, and so I hit it and
that was it. One time somebody hit me. We were

(59:04):
going in front this Jessville high school to have. They
were on our arrivals and we were going from them,
waving pine trees like you saw it because we're mountain Pine.
When they were all standing outside and somebody reminded me, okay,
but I just went back in my car Spiez scraped
and pulled it out and kept driving. And it happened
right in front of their school. So it was embarrassing.
But I don't count that one because I just pulled
it right out. It's all good. Yeah, So just one

(59:25):
for me, Amy, So hitting objects like poles and hydrates counts, okay. So,
and then my most recent one over Christmas break, which
was an accident on the highway. I think I'm at
eighty two more. Your punch card gets in you had
since I was sixteen. Those are two talking about your

(59:47):
whole life, Amy, She's like, that's twenty twenty only guys, dude.
I just thought of one from our parking garage when
I popped the tire. Oh okay, so nine Eddie three
A one right when I man, I got my learners
p just got it and I was pulling over to
the side, like turning right, and a motorcycle decided to
pass the car behind me on the shoulder. I was there,

(01:00:08):
he clipped me. It was brutal. Well, this one has
quit again, all those accent at four thirty. She's got
to get places somehow though. Yeah. Also in the news,
Beyonce is returning to the stage for the first time
more than four years. She's gonna get twenty four million
bucks for one night only. Wow. She's playing a private
performance at the lavish grand opening of the Atlantis Royal
Hotel in Dubai. The massive complex feature seven hundred hotel rooms,

(01:00:30):
a hundred luxury suites, and two hundred liven apartments. They're
paying Beyonce a twenty four and then six zeros that
would equal twenty four million dollars. Kim Kardashi in according
to page six, by Princess Diana's amethyst Cross necklace for
two hundred thousand dollars. She famously wore the cross to
a London charity Galla in nineteen eighty seven, and then

(01:00:53):
finally from the New York Post. A flight attendant mistakenly
deploys the inflatable slide first day on the job. Yeah.
A brand new flight attendant accidentally employed the inflatable slide
while the plane was taxiing on her first day. The
blunder costs the airline about sixty thousand dollars. The flattent
was embarrassed. She was removed from duty order back to training.

(01:01:14):
According to the outlet, did they at least let her
slide down? You know, it doesn't say in the story,
but I would doubt that's the case. Stories. So, this
woman sent her ex boyfriend a thousand texts after being dumped.
Do you think that's gonna get him back? Do you
think that's gonna make him go? While she's so passionate
about me? Maybe I should go back to her A

(01:01:34):
thousand texts after being dumped, the twenty eight year old
was banned from contacting her ex boyfriend in any way
whatsoever for eighteen months and sentenced to eighteen months of
community service and also thirty days of rehab activity. The
woman harassed her ex boyfriend by texting him over a
thousand times and calling him repeatedly as well. Despite making

(01:01:58):
it clearly wanted nothing to do with her, she kept
calling them and kept trying to rekindle their romance. Now,
I don't think it would be justifiable. Let's say he
really did wrong, like he killed her to August, I
don't know. Oh man, she's just so mad. You still
can't do that. But I would understand if like you're
trying to yell at him, make him feel why you're
so but trying to get him back by doing this,

(01:02:19):
that's gonna work. That's not gonna work at all. She's
trying to get the messaging process. He has passion. And
also if she can't have him, and that's a scary
part about this, And also a restraining order is just
a piece of paper, and people that are crazy do
crazy things, and a piece of paper is not going

(01:02:39):
to keep crazy people doing crazy things, Like I would
be scared to death. And also he has to go.
Why did I date her? Ever? Like where did I miss?
How did I How did I not see absolutely a
peep from the beginning? But maybe he enjoyed a little
bit of her crazy, but then she got too well

(01:03:00):
I don't think she had crazy until after he dumped her.
And how about her now she's in the national news
for being able. Who's gonna be able to date her?
Google her name? She's out. You got to find someone
that doesn't have a computer or no access to anything.
Amish as someone in the middle of nowhere farmer wants
a wife that show. I feel so bad for him. Listen,

(01:03:25):
I've had a similar ish experience. I feel I don't
feel bad. Here's why I feel bad for her. So
I kind of obviously something isn't healthy within her. So
I don't that stinks for her, that that's not able
to be addressed and fixed. And maybe it will now
and now she's always going to be known as twenty
eight year old Michelle Felton who sent her ex boyfriend
a thousand texts. And if I'm going out with Michelle

(01:03:47):
felt in five years from now, and I'm some dude
that lives where she lives, and I'm all of them
just Googler because everybody goes, oh my god, oh god,
that's a deal breaker. Okay, but let's say she does
work through it. She can say I haven't good for her,
but it ain't for me. I have a certificate of therapy.
You take that. Everybody better help university. Look, this shows
like she proved she got help. That's crazy, and like

(01:04:10):
in literally crazy. That's from oddity Central dot com. The
other thing I wanted to talk about was I told
Amy on the air it's been a few days ago
because she did the movie on HBO Max. It was
a Christmas movie called Holiday Harmony, that's what's called. Yeah,
And so that that whole thing started where I got
an email they said, hey, can Amy do this? She goes,
she nails it, comes back, we watch it, she nails it.

(01:04:34):
And then she's like, I think I want to just
I don't know, take acting lessons and that's what you've
been doing. Yes, And I said, hey, if you want
to act, like, you can't just sit around on your
hands and you can't wait for the right time because
there's never a right time. If you want to act,
go do it. Go act. And people are like, are
you telling Amy to leave? Get get rid of the show?
The show? And I'm not. But I'll tell you this, if,
like I told Lunchbox on his game show, deal, yeah,

(01:04:55):
if I get on Survivor, I can go. That's not
what I said. I said, if you wanted to go
and take a couple of weeks, just go on audition
for all these game shows, Yeah, you can go. Do that.
I love that. So same thing for you if you
want to go, and there's like two or three weeks
where it's like, I just want to go audition for
these roles. Go do it. And this is Eddie. I
don't know about you, buddy. Yeah, it's just me and
you waiting. Mind. Yeah, I don't know. But that's what

(01:05:18):
even anyone listening. There's never the perfect time to do anything,
and there's always going to be some sacrifice you have
to give. And if you really are passionate about something,
you have to do it because no one's going to
push you to do it because they don't care as
much as you do about you. So that's what I
meant by that, not please Amy, I'm begging you to
leave the show. Yeah, I think in the moment, I
sort of made a comment like you're trying to try

(01:05:40):
to get me to go, and of course that's why
everybody jumped on it, and all of a sudden, I'm
the snare drum everybody's beating on with the story story
I should have I know that's not what you were saying.
I just was playing along with it, and I appreciate
the encouragement. I know exactly what you meant. And so yeah,
people don't need to think that you will go do it,
trust me. That's not how Bobby would go about doing that,

(01:06:00):
how would I go by doing what? I don't know,
Like convincing me to this is how I'd commit to you. Hey,
I had a meeting with myself and it's time that
you need. We need to figure out a good way
for you to get out of here. Yeah yeah, yeah.
But to everybody out there, if there's something that you're
working towards, you like, I'm just gonna wait for the
right moment. There's never a right moment. The right moment
when you commit to doing it, and that's it. That's
the only right moment. I don't know what it is

(01:06:22):
you're waiting for, but go do it. Are you waiting
to be like a character actor when you're sixty? Oh?
They need those they do well when they never reboot
of Golden Girls. That'll be perfect for you. Okay. So
I am still actively taking lessons and my goal is
too audition for stuff this year, Yes, but it's still
but in town, it's still January. But in town, that's
not real stuff. It's like people trying to do country

(01:06:44):
music in Des Moines, Iowa. It's like there maybe a
couple of places there, but it's really you gotta be
there she can be in a music video, you know. Anyway,
Moving one today, this story comes us from Morgan County, Georgia. Ay,
twenty eight year old man went into Walmart, got a

(01:07:06):
bunch of items and went through the self checkout. The
only problem is he didn't scan all the items. Stole
about one hundred and sixty five dollars worth of stuff,
and when they busted him, they said, hey, can I
keep the stuff that I paid for? They're like, yeah,
we'll put it in your car for you. He goes,
here are my keys? They popped the trunk. No way,
thirty seven pounds of marijuana. Damn, that's a good one.

(01:07:28):
They just like baited him there. I mean that was great. Well,
I don't I don't know they knew he had that
INSI they had no idea. It was just an idiot.
I don't know that they baited him as much as
they were just fortunate that he was like double it.
Yoh good help me. Yeah you put that in there.
They're gonna let you keep the stuff. Okay, I'm lunchbox
at your bone Head Story of the Day. Thank you

(01:07:50):
guys for hanging out with us on The Bobby Bones
Show podcast Today. Really long, fine conversation with Hardy. I
mean he came in. We talked about the fact that
he thinks his place was haunted by Native American ghosts.
Would that be accurate? Yes, because of artifacts he collects.
And this isn't. I don't, he's not like maybe he's
he's for sure. We will see you tomorrow, have a

(01:08:13):
