Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, the Bobby Bones post show, pre show. So
you're moving in your new house. You find what one
diamond earring? I think it's real? Why in a drawer
and it's built into the closet. I don't know. It
looks pretty. It's a little tiny stud that would look
super cute because I got my ears pierced, like I

(00:21):
have three in one ear and two on the other,
so I could easily throw it in and mix and
match it with other earrings because there's only one unless
I find the other somewhere else. But I don't know
if it's real or not. But it's something I would wear.
So now I don't know if it's If I clean it,
is it okay? If I wear it? They left it
it's your house. Yeah, And I have no idea who

(00:41):
the I don't know. I have no clue who they were.
It was Dolly, Yeah it cheers you keep it at
the end, okay, keep it were up. Stud your nose
with it came with the house. It's might be a
little too big to stud the nose even better. Stud
your nose. Yeah, do your belly button with a you know, no,
I'm not going to do that. But I also maybe

(01:03):
need to get it checked out to see if it's real.
Are you done with tattoos? No, I still want to
get a third one. I've wanted to get it for years.
Now I want to get I'll fly away somewhere your
eye post Malone sty a big face tattoos say always tired.
I'll fly away, Amy put that under your eye, Okay, yeah,
I'll go do that now, or on your neck one

(01:23):
of the two. Yeah, well, neck has been around for
a while. Longer you'd see hardcore people doing next hardcore,
but now it's face face or nothing. I know. I
used to think, okay, if you get it on the neck,
you're just that's just you giving up whatever. And now
it's like, okay, I guess next. Pretty normal. Postmolon has
stay away over one eye, stay away always under that

(01:44):
same eye, and then on the other side, it's always tired. Oh.
He said he did it because he felt like his
face was ugly. You wanted to the things to be
taken away from. Oh that's terrible. That's how I feel
when I put my zip cream on. When I put
literally I had that thought because it distracts you from
other things. And when I spot put the more spot treatment.

(02:04):
I put on my face, I'm like, oh, look pretty good.
That's why I wear glasses, honest to god, the big
dark room glasses because I feel like I was a
big nerd and Buddy Holly and Rivers Cuomo had them,
and I thought, well, if I wear big dark room glasses,
maybe takes some titching off my face. That's literally the
reason I wear big ball glasses. So we all got
this problem, then, huh, what do you mean? Like we

(02:25):
all we all don't like our faces, so we do things. Well.
She doesn't wear things every day. She wore it is
it cream all day every day? Yeah, I just wear it.
I'm saying at home, I have like no makeup on,
but then suddenly I put the cream on, and I'm like,
I don't look so bad. There was an article Taste
the Country headed out ten country artists who disappeared. I'm
gonna play some of these to you, okay, Jessica Andrews,

(02:47):
who I am? You know with me? There was a
there was a window this is a good song. Yeah,
I don't know this one my father. So there was
a period and maybe the two thousands, from like two

(03:07):
thousand four or five in that seven or eight years
where I just didn't listen to country music. I was like,
it's not for me. But there was all the eighties
and nineties big time obviously the past ten years, I
just got kind of like, I don't only like what
it's doing right now. And some of these are from
that spot, Okay, some aren't though. Um, I know that song,

(03:28):
I know, I know Jes. I never met her. I
don't know if she's around here anymore, just Andrews. Here's
some Dina Carner. But Dina Carter was when we were young. Love.
I know Dina right now. Love her who lives in California. Yeah,
Strawberry wine. But this is their article. Um, but did
the shame my legs for? This? Was amazing? Awesome. John

(03:52):
Michael Montgomery, they have him on the list in Kentucky.
I'll tell you where he is. He was in our
studio like six months ago. And then Travis Denning gives
us an update every time. Yeah, I was talking with
Travis pretty recently edding. I played golf with him, and
I'm buddies with Travis. Um. But Travis is dating John
Michael Montgomery's daughter, and so he says he's up around

(04:13):
what's it called him? John Michael? I think his name John.
People call him John Michael a lot. So he's still
alive and kicking. But I think he had voice issues, right,
didn't he have a vocal issues? Slam down a little bit,
hit surgery? Yeah? Uh. Barbara Mandrell I saw her recently
and I did like a charity event with Humane Association.

(04:36):
She just put out like a best of something too. Yeah.
Her career was cut short in nineteen eighty four after
a car accident. I just know her from my mom
liking her because someone hit me up like are you
Barbara mandroew fan? I was like my mom was, But
I really was never not super into Barbara Mandrell Um.
I remember watching on the opery back in the day.
When was she doing it? Seventiesies, l seventies, eighties um.

(05:01):
For insurance reasons, she was forced to sue the family
of a nineteen year old boy would cause the accident,
and that her public image because the kid died in
the crash. She retired in nineteen ninety seven and rarely performs.
And I didn't know that, did you? No? I didn't
know that. Dang um. Ricky Van Shelton, here's somebody lied
from most in two thousand and six, he suddenly retired

(05:24):
the end. That's kind of what it says. I remember
that guy, Chris Cagle. Oh yeah, I heard this guy
was a lot American idol No no but here two thousands,
early two thousands, he had five top tens, only two thousands.
I don't even I know. I feel like I'm know.

(05:48):
I'm a country fan for my whole life. I've never
heard this song ever. A lot of friends I have
now worked with him. Yeah. Interesting. And then finally I
loved the Wreckers and yeah about Michelle Branch and Jessica Harp.
They did one album. It's been a few years touring

(06:10):
and that was it. Michelle Branch loves in Nashville. Now
I don't know where Jessica Harp is, if she's still
around here at all, but I would love for them
to come perform, or just Michelle Branch to come with
every cool show. Yeah, so that was in that article
a ten country artists who disappeared. So anybody you'd like
to make a come back, But I don't think if
anybody who's out, you know, if you think back, all

(06:33):
the bands out, like Little Texas, right, Oh yeah, I'd
love for them to come back, but I think they're
trying or they're still playing. They well, no, because because
Tim Rushlow, the lead singer, we know a little bit.
He left the band, so Little Texas the band maybe
maybe doing stuff without him, but yeah, they're not going
to do stuff together. And that was the band as
we knew it. Thinking about country music is if people
attach more to the artist than this song. And pop

(06:55):
it's about a song, Yeah, song, what song? What song?
What song? And country music. That's why you don't see
these guys falling out once. Luke's and al Dean's they're
gonna be up for entertain of the Year for years
and years and years. It's harder to get in that
because the artists stay around for a long time, you know. Anyway,
I saw that thought that was interesting. Here are the
top three songs in country music today. Do you want these? Yep,

(07:16):
let's take a look at in the Todaytime Castle. Here
you go, number three, Walking Shot it's a catchy one,
possibly yeah, or the Sam Hot one that's yeah. Luke
Bryan one. Margharita is number three this week. Here's number

(07:36):
two Kenny Chesney here and now good he's my favorite
Kenny song. But yeah, it's good, pretty good. And then
Scottie McCreary, who he had on he's got his third
number one in a row. Who's in between? The number

(07:58):
one pop song is justin You were featuring Quabo with
intentions intentions definitely, and then you number one hip hop song.
He's an eighteen year rapper from Seattle, Washington, Little Mosey,
And here's Blueberry Fago. I says when you ask how

(08:22):
my dago Blueberry Fago, you haven't heard that one either.
What's a little Mosey look like? I'm always wondering why
people on end theirself little or young, because they're always
not gonna be little and always not gonna be young.
Good point, he's probably gonna be little though for a
long Time'm looking at him now, he's he's eighteen, looks

(08:45):
like he's twelve. Well maybe I know we're getting older.
That's the thing that's true. As we age, they start
to look Okay, McConaughey, you know I like about rapper
trying to say, you know, I like about rapper's name
little whatever. Like when I watched that media movie A
Little Bow, I was in it. I remember that. I mean,

(09:06):
he was one of the first littles, but he changed
his name just to bow Wow correct after a while. Yeah,
well maybe that's what Mosey will do. Imagine being eighteen,
Like have a number one song. I mean, listen, Gabby
Barrett's only nineteen. I think catch your music. All right,

my body game out. I was like, this is not

(11:31):
do them day after date. It's a lot. Ramondo. I
did four hundred and then I went to the gym
and I knew in that session I had to get
one hundred more. And there were times I was moaning,
I was squealing. There were other people in there and
it was awkward. But I got to five hundred nice. Wow.
So okay, So now we've have two hundred and forty bucks.
I'm gonna say this. I did mine again easy. No,

(11:55):
it was hard. But here's the thing. I had a
friend gift me. He goes, hey, I'm gonna I set
up a time for you for a guy to fit
me with golf clubs. Right, And so I go to
see the guy and I've been to a push ups
all day. I couldn't even swing the club. Yeah, and
my arms were like and I was like, as like, dude,
I'm sorry, I can't even swing the club. And so
it run me for yesterday. So I did them. But

(12:18):
I wished I would. I wish I would have been
thinking and just gave up on the bit in order
to go and take my gift in a good way.
But yeah, I did them. So I'm up to two
hundred and sixty bucks. I don't know if I can
do them anymore because I'm hurting. But look look at back.

So that'll happen on today's show. We gotta go. Well,
let's get going here. Glad you're here. Thank you so
much for being our friend and hanging out. Hey, let
me play this. This is a funnyvoice. I'm speaking of
push ups. Here is no name. Number two is what
it's written down as here. Here you go, Hey, Bobby.
A couple of friends and myself were a little skeptical

(13:23):
that you're You said on the show you could do
sixty pushups in a row, and we're a little skeptical.
We're wondering if those are half pushups or all the
way down to lockdown or whatever. We want to see
a video, so post a video and prove us all wrong. Well,
I'd like to say I have no interest in proving
anybody wrong. If I can or can't, it's not a brag. Um. No,
how about that. My arm is hurt. I'm done. I

(13:44):
don't know if I can do sixty straight right now.
Maybe next week I try to do one. Yesterday I
couldn't do one, and that's because I had done it.
I'd done it the day before, and I'm like, I
couldn't even do one yesterday. Yeah, I have no interest
in proving myself. This me saying that wasn't Hey, look
how strong I am. No, I'm gonna pass on, but
thanks for the offer to let me do that. Got
a whole countdown of good news stories. We call it

(14:06):
the very retro themed good News Countdown. It's the good
News Countdown, counting down the biggest good news stories across
the left. Oh yeah, and I'm your host, Bobby Bones.
Coming in the number five this week. A woman in Sacramento, California,
celebrated her one hundred birthday with a drive through celebration.

(14:27):
Her friends, her family, neighbors. They all formed a caravan
on the street and they all drove past her as
she celebrated her one zero zero birthday in your mind?
Do you see you living to a hundred? No, ninety maybe,
but a hundred. I don't know anybody personally. I don't

(14:47):
think that made it to a hundred. I had some
family members that made it to ninety something. I'd love
to make it to a hundred. Even the day after
April third is like gold. Baby, you know what life
is like for you at one hundred. I can barely
get through life now at forty. Okay. Talking about the
oldest person ever who has been independent, independently verified is

(15:11):
Janine Kelmett, who lived to be one hundred and twenty
two years old. Good, yeah, verified, one tie. That seems crazy.
That's crazy. All right, let's go. There's a foundation that's
been creating cards and fruit baskets to send to people
affected by coronavirus. So far, they've sent out more than
fourteen hundred baskets. Just this month, a person shared a

(15:34):
note they came with it and said, hey, we're here
with you, we stand by you. The gift is a
token of love. Our heart goes to you. Hey. Speaking
of Corona, I've got two stories. One Corona Lane Hardy
gout it. I saw that a couple of days ago
for American Idol. Now it lives in Nashville doing country music.
The other story was they send these baskets. Kaitlin subscribes
to this thing called misfits. What's called the fruit. Yeah,

(15:58):
we get it every week. There's no more room for
the misfit fruit. It's it's a great box. It's like
fruit that looks weird, that won't sell, and it all
eats the same. It won't stop coming. Every time we're
about too fruit in it's like another box is there.
You never know what's in it. We have to cancel it,

(16:20):
I think because it's just too much much fruit. Number three,
The pandemic and recession may not hurt charitable giving as
much as expected. Giving USA says that an increase in
donations around coronavirus and the nationwide protests could actually keep
charity numbers strong this year. So that's a good news too.
I know for us, when we still are raising money

(16:43):
to build this hero at home, we were concerned. We
were like, man, people have been giving them money a
lot of places. It wasn't the best that we've ever had.
It's still a great number. We're over one hundred thousand dollars.
But you know, it is affecting things. When everybody's asking
for something, everybody needs something, it's hard for people to
to give, even for like the hospitals that I work with,

(17:03):
you know, they feel weird asking right now, but they
need it right so well, and there's just so much
going on. And then even for us too, we take
into account, like a lot of people that we know,
their life is very different right now because money isn't
coming in like you used to. The economy is down.
So then it's like, oh, but at the end of
the day, the hero still needs a home, so we

(17:24):
might as well put it out there. And whoever can
you can, Yeah, pressure for whatever, if you can just
do ye however you get back. One positive side effect
of school moving to online is less bullying. You know,
less kids are experiencing bullying because the bullies aren't there
with them. Think about that. Yeah, without the stuff that

(17:45):
happens at school spelling into the online world, they're experiencing
less cyber bowling too, because best up at school is
what creates the cyber bullying, because their cyber bowling about
things back at school. Oh yeah, so there's not that
component either. That's great, so but too not great. But
for you, you were bullied and you feel as though

(18:07):
you are who you are because of I would I
don't want that either, but I wonder sometimes what you
might be like if you weren't. Again, don't want that
for you, but so much of your personality and your drive.
I mean, I guess maybe you would have found your
drive elsewhere, because sometimes I think for a while it
was like, I gotta show these people what I can do. Well,

(18:28):
there's not as much bullying happening now because of online school.
Hard to bully somebody in the zoom, hard to punk
somebody outside the head or stick me in a toilet
if you're on zoom. All of you all right? And finally,
a singer who's done shows at Walt Disney World for
forty years has ridden his bike over three thousand miles

(18:49):
during the pandemic just to cheer up his friends and
co workers by performing in their front yards. His name
is Billy Flanagans, and he calls his things that he
calls him flanagrams money. Yeah. Here's a clip of a
doorbell cam of him singing hello, Hello, Oh, And I

(19:16):
would guess that Billy got bullet like me as a kid.
There you go, shut it down, raymondo the good news countdown.
This game is pretty simple. I'll play you a sound.
Name what the sound is. There's a theme. They're all
sounds of summer. By the way, here's an example. Here

(19:36):
you go, what's that swimming waves? The beach? Right, just
the beach, right, love the beach. Eddie might be harder
than that, though. These are all things you would hear
during summertime. Since it's now the first official week of summer,
let's play name that summer sound. Here we go Number one,

(19:58):
home on. It's a beautiful sound. And that was all
one take of Eddie's house in like ten minutes. All right,
lunch bikes, bottle opening, Amy popping beer, Eddie opening a bottle. Man,

(20:21):
it's a beer bottle. You all can move on to
the next nice shot. Are here we go? Sound number two?

(20:42):
That sound makes me sick of my sound like that?
I don't either. Why what do you have mowing the yard? Yeah,
as someone who mowed yards for a living, not only
as a kid, but on a golf course. Oh do
you mow the yard? Awful? And my husband loves maybe
the little yard but he doesn't make him sick. My
job was waking up at four thirty five in the

(21:04):
morning and mowing for six seven hours a day. Oh well, yeah,
I guess you heard that much. Yeah, and people would
hit golf balls at me. Lunchbox, love it. Lawn mower, Eddie,
lawn mower. There you go, all right? Named this sound, Lunchbox.

(21:26):
That's the sprinkler, Baby, Eddie sprinkler, Amy, sprinkler. Nice. Named
this summer sound. That's a tough one. It just sounds

(21:48):
like the static on a TV. I don't know. Play
a good one. Here it again, I'm in Do you
know it? I don't know that. I feel like it
could be this. Do you have an answer down? I do,
lunch Box, I'll put a sparkler. Mike, you give that sparkler. Okay, Eddie, okay,

(22:16):
I do too, have sparkler? Amy? Oh washing a car?
Oh no, it did sound like like a water jet.
Fireworks is written down here. But Amy, you're not close
enough by bye bye bye. All right, here we go.
Number five. That's a tough one. Amy. What are you doing?

(22:38):
That's not bongos? Amy's playing bunker. I tell you it's
not bongoes. Sounds of summer named this was easy one
you easy? Yeah? Easy? Can you every one more time?
But what is that? Eddie? Oh? Wow, okay, I have

(23:00):
a guess. Lunchbox. That's the propane tank, Bobby, Eddie, exactly
what it is? I put put him down the grill top. No,
it's propane tank, that's it. Lunchbox wins. Wow, you know
somewhere more than you do. Who money on my mind?
Every time? I'm everybody stand staring da here's one hey,

(23:29):
play number eight to see if you guys would have
got this one. Yeah, they're steer. No, and it does
have to be specific here, what's that locust? No? Crickets, amy,
you can answer, I don't know. But cicadas? Cicadas? What? So?

(23:54):
We used to call them chicharras. I never called him.
What do you call him? Lightning bugs? Or do you
call all them fireflies? Fireflies? They're not though, lightning bugs,
none of I'm just asking a question. We call them
lightning bugs. I know I've been corrected a lot, but
it was what we call them fireflies. As kids, I
saw a map of America, and there really are areas
that people call them that, Like there's a whole part

(24:15):
of the country that calls them fireflies. There's a whole
part of the country that calls them lightning bugs. My
kids love collecting those things. That's mean. I know I'm
making us to do it. We all did, but I
make them let them like you're not gonna keep them.
So that has let them out and then of the
daytime that they suck bugs. But the entire left side
of the country and a little bit up into Michigan

(24:36):
is fireflies. The entire southeast up into the northeast a
bit is lightning bugs. As far as what people call them, Morgan,
what'd you guys call them, Kansas? I call them lightning bugs. Yeah, well, no,
you're on this list as a lightning bugger, Raymundo in
Michigan lightning bugs. Really, it's a status quo. That's my
guy over there. All right, Thank you guys. The latest

out his grandparents may soon run out of food at
the start of the coronavirus shut down, his kid Tanner

(25:41):
was inspired to do something. He's seventeen years old, says
his grandparents, who live in Des Moines. They don't want
to leave their home because people get sick and they're older,
and also the delivery services were charging really hefty fees.
And not only that, sometimes you can't even get home
because everybody was doing it. So he's a high school junior,
he started a project called Tease Angel Hands. He recruited

(26:02):
a team of fifteen teens to deliver groceries for free
to the elderly, also those with the underlying conditions and
pregnant women. They're now making thirty five to forty five
contactless deliveries a week from a grocery store at local

are already full. We can only have fifty percent capacity.

(26:45):
He's like, hey, no problem, goes back to his car,
get some pepper spray, opens the door, and pepper sprays
the whole bar before running away. Yeah. I saw the
guy on security footage too. What an idiot. And so
they got his description and they notified other bar in
the area and he showed up another bar and police
went and arrested him. What an idiot? Too easy, But
why would you do that? Like, what are you proving

restaurants are half capacity, pools are half capacity. Most extra
entertainment still close. It's definitely no hangover right now, What
do you think I'm fine with that. I knew going
in that there weren't going to be the same type
things that I've known. We've all known about Vegas. But
it's your Friendzy, you're with. Those are the memories, not
the buildings or the shows or the people or girls.

(28:32):
Has your fiance put any rules on your party? Yeah,
it's laid down like the New and Old Testament, man,
both of them. Dang, she hits you with the double
Good book. Yeah. Yeah, I mean obviously no strip clubs whatsoever,
know anything with girls. She's a little annoyed. She's fine,
I guess with maybe a couple of dudes that are
listeners of the show. She just doesn't want female listeners

(28:53):
of the show meeting up with us. I don't know why,
because so she just ruled out girls. Basically, just give
me a sausage fat that's what she wants and that's
what a bachelor party should be. And then she's limited drinks.
She says limited drinks? What because she does she know it?
Doesn't want me out there lost in the desert all
by myself because she said, those guys want you to
get super drunk. She goes, don't play into their games, like,

(29:16):
stand up for yourself. It's your chance to be a man.
What do you mean stand up for yourself? Well, I cut.
The whole thing was they would take care of you
since it's your bachelor party. They will. But this type
group think is take a shot, drink this, it's your
bachelor party. Who cares if you get drunk? And then
next thing you know, I get lost. I don't know
Vegas that well. Lost. Yeah, usually she's there. She'll direct me,
she'll hold my hand, she helps me out a lot

(29:36):
when I've been drink. Yeah, I mean you need talking
about grow up here, grow up here? And in this
you saying you're going to get hammerd Wait so and
are you cool with our rules? I'm fine with it.
She's my fiance. I listen to her. But I mean, yes,
she came hard. She tweeted. The best part of Ray's
bachelor party is that it's before mine. We'll be in
Vegas next month. So do what you want, honey. Just

(29:57):
know I'll do it too. Times two. I mean, I
don't know she's she thinks that I'm going out there
to get do things I've never done in my life before. No,
I'm going out there to hang on my friends. You
could have done that here though, and then Eddie and
I could have went exactly I would. That's the thing.
I want to get married. I want to get married
to her. So I don't know why I would have
all these weird things and inside of me that I
feel like I have to live out while I'm in Vegas. Okay,

(30:18):
but you feel good. I cannot wait light Thursday afternoon. Yeah,
got the airplane bottles already, got it? Just a couple
of what's the limit? I don't know. You do those?
You can bring as many as you want on No,
your girl's limit. Don't you have a plane alcohol limit? No? No, no, no,
I mean she just said, like, look to your people
that like there we have an NFL player going with this,
Matt Overton. He's very responsible, she said, look to him

(30:41):
more than you would look to lunchbox. Lunchbox gonna want
you to get smashed. Correct. But even though Vegas Tommy
gave you bad and tell about what's happening, you're good.
Oh that was rough. But when we come I mean,
I believe the party's gonna follow. Okay, the whole party's
coming to Vegas with you from out of state. I
bet honestly that there's an up to. Okay, let's hope

(31:01):
it's in partying and not Corona. All right. Here is
the first voicemail we got. We came in this morning. Hey, am,
those questions for you? I just wondered. I heard you
so that your husband still flies? But does he fly
commercial flights? Like? What is he doing? Since he is
not like in the Air force anymore. That's all. Have
a good days bye. It's a good question. So he flies?

(31:26):
What does he fly? Like? Um? Charter? Charter that's what
it's called. I was like, what's the word? He does
some charter flights. He picks them up whenever he can
because he just loves being in the sky. He's not
an everyday pilot, everyday pilot for Charter, but if they
need one, he's on a list of guys, and boy
does he led up when he can. He can't always

(31:46):
do it if he gets the call, depending on what
we have going on, but if his schedule is open,
he's like hitting the road, see yuh. And he loves
even if it's just like to Alabama and back. He's
all about it, and then he has he does a
drone business every day during the day, so that's his
everyday job, but flies when you can. Here is Natalie
from Iowa. Jane, Good morning Studio. My name is daboians Iowa.

(32:10):
I'm just calling because I love your guys, the show
that lets you think consistently for a year now. I'm
usually about a couple of days behind his playlist and
on the podcast. Every time. I listened to this episode
over and over because I crack up every time. It's
the episode where you're doing easy trivia and you asked
you how many days or in the year, and Eddie
doesn't know it. I literally was streaching about I want

(32:33):
to do it and spat it out all over my card.
I have to pull over just to clean it. Okay, Eddie,
she thinks you're funny. That's funny. She thinks, I'm I'm
dub in funny. Days are in a year? Three hundred
and sixty five? Why don't miss that? Maybe it was
days and year or weeks in a year? Maybe weeks?
How many weeks in a year? Fifty two? Yeah? Oh yeah,
I say, look you learn something. Maybe there's something in
there that I don't know though. Yeah, um yeah, check

(32:54):
it out Easy Trivia Speaking Easy Trivia, I did this
version of my game show Easy Trivia with I think
CMA is doing called CMA Steak, so we weren't able
to do CMA Fest. But it's this whole thing where
artists are playing. I'm hosting a game show and I
wrote a bunch of jokes and one of the artists
was Carly Pierce. Now, Carly Pierce, if you didn't hear,

(33:15):
filed for divorce from Michael Ray. They just got married.
By the way, in case you don't know, here's a
Carly Pierce song, let me know that one. And here's
a Michael Ray song when it comes to her and
one of them moved on. They're both set songs. Oh thing.

(33:37):
So people reported the news first that we're getting divorced.
I saw it on Instagram and I texted Amy. I
was like, holy crap, Carly Pierce Michael Ray getting divorced. Well,
when I was doing the CMA Steak, K, I guess
they were already split, but they haven't announced their divorce.
And I said, hey, there's Carly Pierce She's the best
thing to happen to Michael Ray since Hair Jail. This
is a little joke because Michael Ray was a lot

(33:57):
of hair products. And so they sent me the version
of it, and the joke is still in. But I'm well,
I'm glad they did because I said, hey, you can
take that out. I'm okay with that. Take it out.
What annoyed me was the joke I told about Gone West.
They asked for it to be pulled and never hit me.
Oh they which was not cool, not cool, like, don't

(34:19):
censor to me. You don't ask me to create a
bunch of content and then then pull stuff out. Because
with Gone West, you have a clip of Gone West.
It's Kolby Kalai's band. They came out and she announced, hey,
we're still in a band. But me and my boyfriend
of the band we broke up. We're still in the band.
And the joke was, hey, Koby Kali has switched formats.
She's come from pop to country. Not a lot of
people have done that, even unless the people have been

(34:39):
able to keep working with their ex boyfriends something like that.
It was a joke. They didn't even tell me. All
I got the product, and it was gone. The joke
was gone. Not cool. I'm all irritated about that. I
can tell, like, we didn't spend all the time writing jokes.
And then for them to just start or just send
it back and be like, hey, they've asked it, you
pull it. I've been like, sure, but I will not
be censored. But they were going to leave them the

(35:02):
Michael Ray Carly Pierce joking. They they came to me
and said, hey, you know it's in here. You saw
what happened. I was, yeah, no problem, would take it out.
I'm trying to hurt him feelings. But Raymundo posted something
he saw because we did the Grand Ole Operty Yeah
on June sixth, and and I was there and I
didn't even notice, but you know, they had Michael Ray
on one side of the stage, Carly Pierce on the other,

(35:23):
and in between them, in between them with Steve Warner
and Lee Bryce. Yeah, And I was like, maybe they're
just positioned that way because of the songs they're singing.
I don't know, but no, I guess they're position that
way because they were already broken up, is what I'm thinking. Yeah,
and then there's a pretty awkward Cliff that I ended up.
I watched the whole thing, and I mean this almost says, hey,
they're broken up, and the Steve Warner and Lee Bryce
had no idea whatsoever. Nobody really filled him in on stuff.

(35:45):
All right, play the clip, Michael Ray. I feel like
you should be snuck over this way a little closer
to that end. I didn't know. We were social distancing,
very social, special social distances. Something don't see right in between.

(36:07):
We had no I had no idea. I was sitting there. Wow,
that's weird. And I guess a lot of people have noticed.
They weren't posting any instagrams together. I didn't notice. No,
I don't think I follow either one of them. Okay,
but I'm saying a lot of people once it happened,
and people were like, people are noticing and they weren't posting. Yeah, Morgan,
anything you want to say about that? Yeah, Well, and
I went back on her Instagram to see and she

(36:30):
didn't have a ring on, and some of them so
like people were paying attention. We probably would have noticed
before it got announced. Well, listen, I hope it works
out for them their lives. It's a quick divorce, but
let's give everybody their own space. Understand there are things
happening that we have no idea what's going on, and
then just root for the best. Yeah, they're still young.
They're only marae months plenty. No one was to be

(36:50):
really married yet, you know, well, probably more than their
typical eight months because I'm sure they were used to
traveling and then quarantine happened. Maybe that's why you see
all these divorces outside of quarantine. Hey, listen, even maybe
they might not have finished all their thank you cards
in the wedding. They don't have to. Now look at
the bright side, because you have a year to do that. Yeah,
look at the bright side. Do you have to return
their gifts though? Yeah, they probably just got some women.

(37:18):
Do you have to return them? Do you have to
split the hair products? Now, Michael's hair products? Does that
get split like like children? Yeah? Like all right. Did
you ever see that picture from the nineties whenever that
the couple was getting divorced and they had all the
beanie babies in the middle of the courtroom and they
read the judge made them each pick one beanie baby
at a time because they're fighting over beanie babies. Real, Yeah,

(37:39):
it was real. Beanie babies were a big thing back then.
Yeah they were. Yeah, it was a picture all Michael
just searched to get that picture. Beanie babies divorce search
on Google. You'll see it anyway. Listen, best to both
of them. Um, Michael Ray such a nice guy. I
know him, Raymundo got you try to party with them once? Right? Yeah,
on the bus. That's back in the day when he

(37:59):
wasn't even really with her. I mean, so maybe the
bus parties are back on. I have no idea. You
didn't get invited to the bus party, didn't he He did,
but then the bus wasn't there. You got invited to
a non existent party. Yeah. When I met up at
two am, there was no Michael Ray and no bus. Okay.
And do you think that was on purpose? Or uh?
Maybe because I was texting him and he really wanted

(38:20):
the check that my fiance girlfriend at the time was with.
He wanted her. Didn't we ban Michael right from the
show for a bit? Yes, because that's the bus party
you and I are relieve. This is Nicole from Alabama. Hey,
Bobby Morten Studios. I just wanted to call and tell

(38:42):
y'all how much I love the show, and I enjoyed
listening my job A black on my job, so I
listened every single day. I do not make a single
second of any episode. On Tuesday, Stress, you did a
miking out compression I know was hilarious and nobody really
laughed at it. But I was laughing and I was
lating three eating more so how us and more making
mouth confersation because you founded just like them. But anyways,

(39:04):
thank you guys so much for everything you do, and
we're always being so positive and just such a crazy
town that we live in. How y'all have a good day.
Thank you, Nicole. You know, I think it was sexy
Mickey I was doing. I was like, Minnie, come on
over here, you're great, but and nobody laughed. But here's
the thing. This is what I'm experiencing now, not only
in this room, because we're around each other so much

(39:27):
that if you don't bring it up point one percent
every week or so, it just starts to be normal. Yeah,
we've heard you do that before. Maybe not sexy man. No, no,
idn't heard sexy Mickey mouse. Same thing in my relationship
right now. Like the only reason Caitlin likes me is
because I'm funny, and so when we first started dating,
I was hilarious to her. She couldn't get enough of it. Well,

(39:49):
now she gets it all the time, so it's just normal.
But what will happen is what I do is before
around friends or around people, even on we'll do like Zoom.
We'd played this trivia game on PlayStation and two of
other friends aga on Zoom. We all played on PlayStation
because we can talk to each other on Zoom, and
I'll be killing They're laughing their butts off, and I'm like, see,
how funny you just think I was. I have to
point it out to her through other people now when

(40:10):
I'm just laying down the jokes. So yeah, maybe you
guys just used to We're used to all the funny
You're used to how hilarious I am. Time you're Amy's
pile of stories. So Carrie Underwood put up this picture
of herself in a swimsuit on social media kickoff summer,
but that's not really even what stood out to me
at all. First of all, her closet looks huge, no

(40:33):
surprise there, but she has a washer and dryer full
size in her closet, and I thought Okay, Well this
is genius. I mean, I'm never gonna have that, but
that's goals. Yeah, you can just dry them, Like, why
have we never thought of this? I saw that too, Well,
we haven't thought of it because we don't have a
closet that ha's a washing drier hookup. True. I would

(40:55):
assume if that's the case, you build the house specifically
and say, wash your driver in the closet we're building, right.
She for sure has other laundry rooms. This is probably
just I bet you money. She might have two, one
one downstairs, one upstairs, three in her and one in
her closet. So yeah, shout out. And her swimsuit looks

(41:16):
super cute. I'm sure. Maybe it's her Callia brand. Yep,
it is Collia. You know, I've always wondered why the
name of her brand is a little confusing Callia Collia.
I don't know how to say it either, but it's
got cute stuff, but they sell it. S Thank you, Collia,
thank you. Okay, So the next Apple Watch update, we'll

(41:38):
have a new feature that listens to you washing your hands,
and it will tell you if you don't wash it
for at least twenty seconds, your Watch is going to
call you out. Well, they're also putting out I believe
a smart doorbell camera that they can tell who's at
your door. What do you what? I thought we had
that with the ring or what? No, that you see

(42:00):
who's at the door. There's a difference. Okay, tell me
any more. So Apple's new operating system fourteen. First of all,
we'll include a wireless way to unlock a vehicle, which
is great which already surprised it isn't happening now, I'm
surprised we don't have remotes on our phones. Old on.
I'll let me get to the story. Holly car Key
will be paired to an iPhone and Apple Watch. It works. Users,

(42:23):
This isn't the right story. There's another story though, where
it's smart. They can recognize the facial recognition like Facebook uses.
So the door would tell me bobbies at the door
because it recognizes your face. What my new house? We
just moved in. And the microwave is built into the wall,
so I don't really know how to I'm not a

(42:44):
big on microwaves anyway, but I've started to use them more.
But the other one I had was like fifty dollars
from Walmart. This I don't know what it is, but
you you don't have to touch it, and you wave
in front of it. The coronavirus microwave. The previous owners
put it in, but I don't know. I stood there
in front of it yesterday waving for like five minutes.
I couldn't never figure out how to use it, So

(43:05):
I gotta google how to use a touchless microwave. Yeah,
it's weird, huh it is? I you know, I have
one of those small convection Is it called convection oven? Yeah? No,
it's out an oven. It's a top where it doesn't
get hot so your kids don't burn your hands a grittle. No, no, no,
it's a top you cook on it. But is it
a convection stove? Convection stove? Yeah? I don't listen. All

(43:26):
I know, I ain't cooking anything. All right, what else?
You're good? Okay? Well I saw this and I just thought, wow, okay,
this is insane. If this is how we do yoga
in the future. There's these pods that people were practicing
yoga in. They're clear bubbles. There's about fifty of them outside,
and they're about seven feet tall twelve feet wide and

(43:47):
you get inside your own little plastic bubble and practice yoga.
So you can take a class with fifty other people,
but you're in your own little pod rain or shine.
It just is a lot of space, that's the problem. Yeah,
it's a lot because you can't do it in the studio.
And each little bubble has its own individual fan in
case you get hot. So I just thought, man, the
future is already looking crazy. It always is though, think

(44:10):
about any in the fifties. Yea, a coronavirus really expedited. Yeah,
but we're gonna do things in a lot of ways
better because of this, Just like after nine eleven half
in security, the report's got a lot better forever. It'll
be changed, right, We're going to infectious disease wise handle
things a lot different for the future moving forward because
we learned so much from this. Yeah. I hate to
go all tell me something good on you, but that's

(44:31):
what That's what I just did there. Well, thank you all.
I Amy, that's my file. That was Amy's Kyle of stories.
It's time for the good news. So twin sisters they
go to Mesquite High School in Texas. Judith and Janet
one was valedictorian. Shout out Judith with a three point

(44:52):
nine five gpa, and then Janet salutatorian with three point
nine four. So smartest girls in school and their sisters. Man,
that would stink. Well. No, Judith and Janet are incredibly close,
but there are no hard feelings about who came in first.

(45:13):
No bitterness, Janet says, is the tenth of a point though. Yeah,
so close. Both of them will be attending Texas A
and M University in the fall whoop, and they want
to have careers in medicine. Do you still have your
Texas and M ring? No? I lost it in North Carolina.
I don't know if I lost it or got Our
house was broken into there and my husband's academy ring
was stolen and the academy Sports and Outdoors sorry Air

(45:37):
Force Academy, and I don't know for sure because like
stuff just went missing. Either I lost it around the
same time or mine was stolen to or it's like
fell somewhere and it's in that house that was our
first house as a married couple. So I kind of
hope when we have these, tell me something goods about
class rings. Sixty years later, someone gets a phone call,

(45:58):
I found your class ring under our house? Does it
say Amy Brown? Yes? It has my Yeah, I'm not
Brown Moffat because that was my maiden made a name.
It says Class of OZ three. Okay, let's do this.
If anybody out there can find Amy's Texas A and
m ring, Amy Moffett was her maiden name? Is Amy E. Moffett?
I think? Or maybe yeah, speaking which I can't find

(46:19):
an a CM or somebody still want a CM or work?
Really yeah, because we have four as a show and
can't find the fourth one. I think somebody came to
my house and stole it. Oh, so ask for that
too while you're at it. Yeah. Yeah, Also if you can,
I'll find any to find out what year it was,
because someone has to take on am has your name
on it, Bob, Yeah, that's no good. That's to tell

(46:41):
me something that we want to have. Amy gets a
ring back, I get the ACMO word back. Congratulations to
those twins. Yes, that's a great story. Salutatorian second balotic
tory and they got a both. That's what it's all about.
That was tell me something good. Over to Amy with
the Morning Corny, The Morning Corny. Why can't cats use computers.

(47:04):
Why can't cats use computers because all they want to
do is chase the mouse? Nice? Who uses a mouse
to anymore? Huh? I do? I guess I'm a big computer.
Well on my computer that I have at home. If
we're working from home to do the show. That's a
great joke seven years ago. Like, no, I literally use
a mouse for that. I guess I don't have a
big computer anymore. During coronavirus, I was using that mouse

(47:25):
every day. Okay, still a good joke. Then thanky, there
it is, thank you we had that end again. Right
there it is? That was the morning corny. Well, here's
a bummer. I got a note because I was gonna
go speak at the governor's mansion during this big governor
circle dinner on August eight. They just canceled it completely
because of COVID. Dang, that's a big moment for me

(47:48):
to shine. May have been announcing a certain candidacy too,
who knows what already I'm bear listen, I'm gonna tell
you it is ramped up with people in Arkansas calling
me asking me if I'll run for governor. Well, I
mean they've been asking that, I know, But right now
you're playing a little dumb because I've been telling you
stuff off the record. I'm not flying dumb. You are

(48:11):
a little bit. Just don't sometimes register how serious it
is because it still seems crazy to me, to be honest,
But I mean, I'm all here, I'm here for it.
I'll vote. Why isn't it crazier than anything else? Bobby?
People see me in them, and I see me and
the people. We came from the same spot. Most people

(48:32):
don't grow up rich kids, right. I think that you
would be an amazing politician. For that reason, I don't
care a politician. I know you don't. That's the thing.
I never pictured you being a politician. Don't. You don't.
I don't want to be a politician. You're going to
be governor politician, Okay, I'm going to be a leader
of my like minded people that don't come from a lot,

(48:53):
that want to be a lot. Okay, Well that I
can see you as. Yes, the politician part I'm struggling with.
Put it that way. Then now I gonna be a
civic leader. Okay. Well, regardless that I was bombed out,
I was really going to roast them with some jokes.
The governor let's look at them though. Have they rescheduled Yeah,
twenty twenty one, twenty twenty one. Yeah, August says, please

(49:14):
put on Bobby schedule for Saturday August seven to twenty
twenty one. Seriously, Yeah, that's literally what it says on
this why an entire year because they're not doing the
governor's that same dinner and event. Until then, I didn't
get it, and I was going to speak in headline
and you know, well, I mean by twenty twenty one,
who knows all I'm saying is everybody thinks it's a joke.

(49:36):
It ain't a joke. People are hitting me up left
and right, going will you run? Will you run? Would
you be interested in running? No? The Arkansas Democrat called me,
oh yeah, and to interview me about you for that article,
and that was one of their main questions, is just

(49:56):
do it when Bobby's governor of Arkansas. They weren't even
asking I think they asked me, legit, what I would
do when you take that position. I was like, Okay,
this is happening. I just want people that don't come
from a lot to have a chance, because I have
a chance. I didn't come from a lot, So that's
my job, that's my goal. Anyway, thanks for the joke.

(50:17):
That's a bumber here on that one. Um. But in
the good, good news, good news, Clint Black's coming in
a minute. He's gonna perform. I believe he's gonna do.
And I'm leaving here a better man, right is what
we know? Yes, I'm up, Yeah Clint Black. Ye, a
few minutes he's gonna play this. Oh isn't it such

(50:40):
a jam? So good? Now what they could can do
it now? And I'm leaving here a better man. I'd
like to do that thing about boys where I go.
I'd like to do that happy yodel even hear a
better man? Well show A guy claims that he had

(51:03):
Tender on his phone to look at the haircuts. When
you think about that, I don't think so, because I mean,
you catch your husband on Tender and you're like, well, WHOA,
what do you have that app for? I mean he's like, no,
I just want to see the shirts they were wearing.
The girl you know, I'm into blouse's. I mean think
you could do that on Instagram. I guess true. Catching
your partner with a dating app would lead many people

(51:26):
to think okay, unfaithful, but one man has quite the excuse.
The article says. The woman shares that she and her
boyfriend have been living together on quarantine. That one her
man always keeps his hair buzzed, but grew it out
during lockdown. So said she recently was on his phone
listening to music and notice he downloaded the Tender app.
When she looked into it, she found that he had

(51:47):
set up a woman's account to swipe on men, and
while he has a message message an he want, she
suspected he may be cheating, when he insist is not
the case. WHOA, but that would mean cheating with the man. Yeah.
When I confronted him about it, he said he created
it to look at men's haircuts. She said, why didn't
you just google men's haircuts? That's a good, good question,

(52:08):
he claimed it is because then he'd only be seeing
male models and people on Tender. They weren't stock photos.
Do we believe him? I mean, because there's a whole twist,
not just the cheating, maybe living a double secret life,
a cheating life, but also with dudes instead of women.
Part of me might believe him for a minute. I'd
be like, Okay, I guess you're looking at hair Here's

(52:31):
why I might believe him a little bit. Why if
I were hiding something on my phone, I would never
give my phone over to my girlfriend or a wife
to have to listen to music like. I would never
do something that dumb. Yeah, does he not know that
tenders specifically for hooking up and dating? Sure? Oh he didn't.
I don't think it's a haircut app. I thought maybe

(52:53):
he was confused as to what the purpose of I
don't know. I'm just thinking I would think if it
were me, I would not give my girl my phone
if I didn't want her to see something on my phone.
So I as I talked myself to it, I kind
of believe him right now. Yeah, he just doesn't sound like,
you know, sharpest tool in the shed. You should just

(53:14):
tell her then. That's one of the things. If you're
gonna download tender, you go, hey, baby, listen, I'm download tender.
I'm catfishing as a woman, but only to see haircuts
heads up? Yeah, or maybe he wants to see haircuts
in his radius, because you know, tender checks who's near you. No,
that's not tender. I thought that was tender. I thought
tender render no tender does you can? You can get

(53:39):
on tender tendering so long? I mean years and no.
Because when my girlfriends and I last time we went
to Haiti, we put in their tender app that we
were in Porter Prince because we wanted to see if
they had me matches and were there. Yeah, there was
one American guy that was there studying or whatever and
he was just waiting for anyone, And so yeah, I

(54:00):
think you can do that. Maybe you just want to
see what's in style in his neighborhood. Coming up in
the next segment, Clint Black will be in studio very
excited about this. He's got a new record out today
or that that's out this week. But he's also going
to play better Man, which you may know by us
all singing it now. No no, just come on, everybody,

(54:21):
no noing you this way Amy solo things I couldn't
do before. Now I think I can't leave here a
better Man? All right, Clinton Black, He's gonna play that.
But why does he need to play? We just sang it.
We're good. Our audience is full, They're fulfilled. Now now
Clint Black in next right now, he is in our

(54:43):
marathon green room, he's here in studio on the Bobby
Bones Show. Now Clinton all right, Clint Black series. When
he comes in, it's like a tornado rolling through. Clint.
How you doing some damage? Good to see you again,
Good morning. I was telling the story the other day
because you and Darius to the opery and I host
that show, and there's nobody there in the opera, which

(55:03):
is got to be pretty weird though too right to play. Yea,
and even you guys, you were so far away social distancing. Yeah,
but there's only been I think two or three people
in my entire career that I said I have to
go and meet them, and you were one of them
because we hadn't met. We had not we had talked
on the phone, yeah, but we had never met. And
I went up and you know, it was just a
real thrill because, and I hope you take this the

(55:26):
right way, is that I grew up and you were
such a big part of my life, like I'm such
a big thing. You're welcome. Yeah, they I don't know
what I did, but I hope that you know I
kept you fed. I don't know about either one of those,
but you ken't be smiling and singing for sure, thanks. Um,
you know a story that you and I had talked

(55:46):
about kind of the way I thought you just came
up and said hi to everyone. So never I have
not feel extra special at all. Only two people I've
done that with on the opery stage. One was do
you know what I can remember? So there you go.
I was trying to think who else I did that with.
These are memorable experiences. But you you didn't always live

(56:10):
in Nashville, though you live in Texas for a long time, right, Yeah,
I'm from Houston. Yeah, So when when did you come
to Nashville eighty seven, came up, met with some record
companies and producers, and then uh, my album came out
in eighty nine and I was touring and so I
was here all the time, but in a hotel, and

(56:31):
it just got you know, we didn't have a lot
of hotels here back then, and uh, and so it
was getting old pretty fast. So I bought a house.
Did you stay in Nashville or did you have a
moment where you're like, I'm going back to Texas to
live for a while, I was staying in I was
staying in Texas. It was only uh that I got

(56:51):
home for about two weeks out of every year. That
just made me get a place here because I just
couldn't stand staying in the hotels. That's all I was
doing was coming here a couple of days and that
it was never time to get back to Houston except
at the end of the year. So it just sort

(57:11):
of wore me out. Did some of those buses come
by and like find your house? Did you ever have
or owen Nashville? When you were in Nashville? They ever
come by and be like, oh, look out your left,
there's Clint Block's place. Yeah, I did have some of that.
More of it was with neighbors who would come up
in their boats when I had a house on the lake,

(57:32):
and you know, they'd be waving their beer cans yelling
we're killing times and probably think they were so funny too,
like you had never heard that, that's funny. Somebody actually
knocked on my door and she and her friends, uh,
you know this this group of ladies and one of
them was married to a guitar player and somebody famous

(57:53):
his band I won't name, but they knocked on my
door really early in the morning, and you know, they
were like a welcome wagon or an interrogation wagon, really
and uh, I said, Hi, how are you doing? And
you know, they told me who they were, and and
then one of them says, well, we just wanted to
come by and see if you were really as nice

(58:15):
as you've seen. And I thought, well, you should have
come later in the afternoon a lot nicer than eight am.
Clint Black is here. You know. One of the interesting
stories when you add your first record, you had a
very short song, was killing time? Is it two minutes
and fifteen seconds? No, it's longer. I probably three minute,

(58:39):
but yeah, we were we were cutting for radio, and
then I would say to the record company, I'm gonna
do a few longer ones. You'll never be a single,
just but I have to do them. And so didn't
the record radio guy go, hey, you know what, this
should actually be the single, because I'd spend it a
whole bunch more so. Yeah, it was Bob Gara at

(59:01):
Kazla and Carson Schreiber had, you know, taken me around
all the West coast stations, and uh, straight from the
Factory was going to be the first single. And I thought,
I'm really worried about a Western swing song playing all
over the country. And and I had a cassette tape
in my pocket, and you know, Bob said, well played

(59:23):
him straight from the factory. He said, well, I could
you get that into the top twenty I can add it.
And I knew what that meant. You know, it's the
catch twenty two of promotion. So I took a chance.
I was new. I didn't know if it would be
frowned upon, but I said, I've got this tape in
my pocket and I believe this one. And I gave

(59:43):
him the tape. It was better Man, and at the
end of the first chorus he hit stopped and said,
I'll add that out of the box. And we got
out of there and called the head of the label
and said, you know, guess what just happened. We have
to change the single choice and they did, and that
one went to number one and really kind of got

(01:00:04):
me on this show. Congratulation. I saw you at the
opera and Darius was doing a Hootie song. He was
doing hold my hand and You're so good on guitar.
I saw, um, I guess you knew a key was
in So he started playing the solo and I look
at Darius face and he's like Holy crap, Clint Black's
playing the solo for a Hootie song. I'm assuming just
by watching that and in rehearsal that he didn't know

(01:00:26):
you were going to do that, and you just started
playing the sologe my way in if I have to No.
He actually when we talked on the phone, Uh, we
were talking about what to do together and uh picked Mama,
tried to sing together and uh, and he said, you
want to play a solo on um hold my hand.
I said sure, and then U, I said, what are

(01:00:48):
the changes on it? He was just real simple, It's
really easy. I wrote it. That doesn't mean you know,
I'm I'm not big on improvising, but I really sort
of studied all the types of things that I could do,
uh the night before and then just winged it and uh.
And for me, uh, I was as surprised as anyone

(01:01:12):
that I did a good job at it, because normally
I have to have to work things up. I did
a thing with chet Atkins once and I was going
to play rhythm and he was gonna solo, and halfway
through he threw it to me to take it away. Clinton,
I'm improvising this solo, and uh, and this was, you know,
twelve years ago. Uh you know, I wasn't as average

(01:01:34):
as I am now. So halfway through it, he says,
the one look so serious. I'm thinking, I'm not serious.
I'm scared to death. I'm playing a guitar solo with
chet Atkins. What do you want? When you finished that solo,
I texted Eddie. That's Eddie. I pretty Eddie. I thought
y'all were the judges, you know. I texted him. I said, Hey,

(01:01:56):
Clint Black just played lead on a Hoodie song from
an in the opry. I said, I'm all good, I
can check out now. It's it's all my things came
together all at once, So that that was kind of novel. Listen,
that was really cool. Eddie has a question for you,
anyone you want to do. Clint. You you probably remember this,
but you were my first concert ever South Padre Island
Convention Center. You probably remember this. I'm sure you remember it. Yeah, yeah,

(01:02:19):
that was you. Yeah, yeah, wow, yeah, this were This
was back in the day when um it was before
the internet, so you had to call the one hundred
number to buy tickets and he would take an hour
and a half to get tickets and once you got them.
There were the worst tickets ever in the back of
the of the convention Center. But halfway through the show
I snuck on the front. Had the best time in
my life. Awesome. I never know how those those ticket

(01:02:39):
things work, because you you know, I mean you you
can actually be right first up and you're you're still
a way back in the back. Yeah. Yeah, we had
terrible seats, but we got there and we loved it.
But my question for you was what year was it? Gosh,
ninety probably ninety ninety one, Wow, that would be my guest.
But my question for you was, what was your first concert?

(01:03:00):
Do you remember that? Well? I was I was just
a baby when we, uh my parents took me to
see Roy Rogers in the Astrodome. But the first one
I remember, um was Ted Nugent and the Amboid Dukes
with Hetty East as the opening act. Come on. Um.

(01:03:26):
But then uh then I saw Merle Haggard right after that,
so I kind of put those two together. Cold were
you then? Uh? That would have been probably nineteen seventy.
I would have been I don't know, eight ten years
old something like. That's so cool? Do you get the
Don Johnson A lot like you look like Don Johnson.
I've heard that a couple of times, a couple of thousand.
Are you being facetious or really just a couple a

(01:03:48):
couple of times? Because I just watched Uma the Superhero,
What's super the Watchman, and it could have been you.
I thought it was you, except he wasn't. I should
go to his bed, didn't have a harmonic around his neck.
The harmonica. You're pretty good at that too, Huh. Yeah,
that was my first instrument. So yeah, I'm I'm you know,
I'm not. There are guys out there that that discourage

(01:04:10):
me when I hear them from from ever playing again
because they're they're just so accomplished on the instrument. And
I'm I'm just kind of a kind of a blues player,
you know, I've got some licks and uh, but I
wouldn't hold myself up as uh as being in the
class with these harmonica players. I'm doing the quotation marks

(01:04:33):
in the air. Well we cheat, Well, we have a
band and we play around and we'll play a song
and I'll just get the harmonica that's in the right key,
and like we'll play like the Romantics and something and
all you have to blow it to the beat that's
in the right key. That's literally I didn't know what's
so easy? And people are like, dang, you're good. Most
of the notes will works the most dude, any given time.
And then people just start to freak out when you

(01:04:54):
start with a harmonica and they don't know you play that.
They don't even listen to what you're doing, and they
can't see through your skin and to see just how
simple it is what you're doing. Did you take harmonica lessons?
I did not, So how did you learn? I learned
by listening and then just just trying to mimic and
I was running out of a lot of rooms. My

(01:05:15):
brothers would lock me in the closet at times because
it was so annoying. Um, there was on the on
those early harmonicas I bought, there was a little sheet
in there that would show you which notes to play,
to play you know, various songs um home on the
range and things like that. But I started out playing

(01:05:39):
the blues, just you know, old Joe Clark and really
really roughly. And then as I became exposed to different
harmonica players, I started to adapt to, you know, playing
more of the single note instead of the courting, so

(01:06:02):
like uh, Billy Joel or Bob Dylan, you know, they
were doing a lot of that courting, which just uh
uh even some of the blues guys were doing. But
I started to really gravitate more to guys like Fingers Taylor. Yeah. Yeah.
I played with Jimmy Buffett and you know who he is. Yeah, yeah,

(01:06:25):
of course we had Jimmy Bufett on the show last week. Yeah, yeah,
so Fingers, Uh Magic Dick who played in the Jay
Giles band. Yeah, yeah, I see where y'all went with
that magic right, you're thinking that someone's name Magic Dick
probably why that was his name? Yeah yeah, yeah yeah

(01:06:49):
song Whammer Jammer on the Jay Giles Live album. I
was obsessed with that. So listening to those guys, I
started trying to be more precise with my playing. And
it took a while, but uh uh, you know, I
got to I got to the point where I could
still be rhythmic playing with the single notes when you

(01:07:09):
play guitar. He's such a proficient player. Do you see anything?
Are you seeing colors? Are you like? How are you
able to you know, play a solo just from memory?
Is it just practice and hard work or is it
something in your mind where you're like, I can see
it a bit different. It's a lot of practice. I
don't I don't see in the colors at all. Uh.
For me, I I didn't, you know, learn the best way.

(01:07:32):
I learned with chord shapes and then uh and and
so I didn't I didn't learn the scales and the
foundational stuff so well. So it took me a long
time to adapt to being able to see things to
play on the guitar. So when I'm soloing, I'm I'm

(01:07:54):
just working around. Some of it's just familiar stuff that
I you know that I played a bunch and and
some of it is just seeing the chord uh and
and and seeing the shape of the chord and knowing
how the notes are connected. It's uh, it's not the

(01:08:16):
best way to go about it. Do you remember the
first song you ever learned a guitar? Yeah, it would
have been uh, Redneck Mother by Ray Wiley Hubbard. Yeah,
and then playing the same chords backwards I learned can't
you See by the Marshall Tucker Band. That's the same
chords backward. Yeah. He's born in Oklahoma. My name was

(01:08:38):
Betty Louth, Elmer, Liz Haggard the live version, and then
can't you see this is all in the wrong key
too high? Take a Very train down at the station,
don't take a Frey train. Get up there. You can
get up there. That's that's not your roll out of bed.
Note there. But it's been a long time. We're all
that bed a long time ago. Uh well, listen, I'm

(01:08:59):
I'm so glad. Did you hear you do have a
new record South? It is called out of saying? Tell
me about this record? And why is it called out
of sayne Well? I I looked around the lyrics to
see if anything jumped out that would speak to the
entire album. And there's a line in the last song
what I Knew Then, which goes, I can't stop thinking,

(01:09:22):
And I racked my brain one thought behind and a
little in and out of saying, and I thought out
of saying. I started to correlate that to the entire
process for me, which is it starts out all well
and good, I'm I'm in my brain and I'm writing,
I'm I'm creating music, and it's coming from a sane place.

(01:09:46):
I could go through the tracking, the overdubs, getting into
the mixed process, and I'm worn out on the music.
There's no mojo left. I'm so immersed in it that
I can't sleep at night. I wake up after just
a few hours and it's like the radio going off
and the Bobby jon Bones show playing in my head
and I can't turn it off, and I gotta get up.

(01:10:08):
And uh uh, that was supposed to be a slight
little dig at you, but it happens so naturally. People
do that, people call me that, and they don't even
think of of it. I thought, well, here's another one.
I guess one of my musical heroes. Oh no, the
radio show, now that we know it was a joke,

(01:10:31):
so um So, then when it gets to the mixing, Uh,
it becomes so much more science than art. It's just
torturing the last bit of the process. And I don't
feel like I'm really in my brain anymore. I'm just
I'm just working at two tenths of a decibel level
changes and trying to make sure everything has its place scientifically.

(01:10:56):
But there's no pleasure in it. And and I produced
a band once and and at the end they kept
h changing out instruments and doing different things. And it,
and it occurred to me that they they don't know
yet that there's nothing left in this for you. Now
it's over for you. You know, maybe a year from

(01:11:16):
now you can listen to this record and it'll make
you feel something, but not now. It's it's so over,
and it's it's so science that, uh, you can't really
enjoy it. And so I thought, out of saying, really
speaks to the front end and the back end of
what it is. And then I wanted the uh, the
cover shot that I use with me in black and

(01:11:38):
white and the American flag guitar in color. I knew
I wanted that shot for the cover, and I thought
this speaks to that as well, because at any given time,
America is a little in and out of saying also.
And then when the timing, you know, coincided with this
uh coronavirus and then all the riding, I just thought,

(01:12:02):
God with this was was that just you know, it's
it would seem as though I looked at our environment
and said, this is what the album should be, and
the you know, the cover should have an American flag
and the first song should be America is Still in
Love with You, because look what we're going through, but
it was all so much just happenstance. The album is

(01:12:27):
out now, twenty third album out of saying it's stream
it all this week, even download it helps first week
album sell. That's all we have you here this week.
That's that's right now. And you know, if you get
the actual CD, I encourage people to just go ahead
and get two of them because they're CDs and they
wear out. It's a good point and think about that

(01:12:49):
and get it this week especially. Yeah. Um, so here's
what we're gonna do. I would like for you to
play America, but first, would you play a better Man? Yeah?
My first hint? Yeah, that's this is a jam right here? Yes,
my friend in yours clip black. Everybody feel free to
sing along unless you don't know the words where you

(01:13:10):
can just make them up ideas. Hey guys, So, because
of licensing roles, we can't play anything with music on
this iHeartRadio channel or podcast anymore. But you can't go
to Bobbybones dot com to see it. We hate that
we had to take it down. Wasn't our decision, but
I just wanted to keep you up and we wanted
to keep up as much as possible, So go to
Bobbybones dot com to watch or hear whatever you're missing

(01:13:31):
right now, and thank you for listening to the show,
and sorry about all the legal stuff. Come on, nice
job on the sing along. Well, here's the thing. First
of all, to answer your question, yes, there's reverb. I
don't want to yell during this song too. If it's
a song our listeners really want to hear, I won't

(01:13:52):
let us sing as much as we want. And when
you said sing along, everybody eyeballed me to see if
I gave them the okay, and I didn't at first,
but on that last one we all something that was great. Yeah,
So Scuba Steve our producers in there, and he sent
us a text and said, hey, he invited y'all a scene.
Do it? Hah, it sounds great, And I literally replied
to him, we have to follow Bobby's leader. We get

(01:14:12):
in trouble, we sing, but our listeners don't want to
hear us sing. Yeah. No, it was better that you
waited because it looked like you know, you're not going
to do it. And then there you all came in
and and good job or does anybody know what movie
that is? From everybody sing now just me? That's uh,
you should take credit for I want to say it

(01:14:34):
was about Kilmer movie Batman. I didn't see it the Doors,
yeah all the day? Maybe was it was it Doors? No,
it was one of those silly movies he did. He
just dropped that. Yeah, there you go. Do you want
us to sing a song to you? Yeah? This is
a killing He's killing me. Come on thinking I can't

(01:15:02):
see you marry well, you're just not fun. I'll be
killing time for returning. Will you just my fun? I'll
be killing time for returning singing about thank you? What

(01:15:26):
is this change in lyric? If I crossed that line
and you marry me? She doesn't. I struggle with lyrics
at times, but I mean the thing is is that
that's how I sang it all those years ago, and
it doesn't leave me, so I just continue with it.
I love it. You know, I've never heard that one.

(01:15:47):
So what's the real lyrics? If I cross that line
and they bury me? Okay, yeah, it's different, way different. Yeah.
Somebody actually wrote to me complaining that I was promoting
drinking and driving. Oh interesting, I know. It's astounding, isn't
it that people wrote? Who would know I'm for that.

(01:16:13):
He's got a new album out. It's called Out of Saying.
I hope you check it out. Listen it is it
is straight country music. And you wrote a bunch with
I'm sure he's your friend more than he is mine.
But I love Steve Warner. He's all right. And he
wrote a bunch of songs with that record with him. Yeah. Yeah,
But we've written a lot of songs over the years together,
probably about almost two albums worth that have been spread

(01:16:34):
out through uh since Uh, nothing but the tail lights wanting.
The great thing about Steve at the great thing about
Steve is that he'll stay out of the way and
let me do the creative work. It's a good thing
about him. I feel like, again, you're poking at Steve

(01:16:54):
and we're not on the joke. Yeah, he's such a
nice guy that he all won't even really know. I'm
digging on him. When I did that directed the video
for Been There, which he and I wrote and do
and sing together, and uh, and I really didn't want
us to be like together singing together. I wanted us

(01:17:15):
separate somehow. So I projected at any given time, one
of us was on camera and the other was projected
onto something the piano top or playing in the TV
or in the window, so we were never together. So
I had this clever idea to do an edit where
all of his shots we would sort of bleed the

(01:17:37):
color out of his face except for the green tones,
but not so much that it was really obvious like Frankenstein,
but enough. And he and Karen were happening to be
driving around Music Row. I finished the edit and and
I called him and he said, yeah, we're in the

(01:17:58):
neighborhoods there. Come by and see it, and uh. And
so he came by and they're watching, and he's so
at the end, he's so nice. I said, what did
you think? I was great. I really like what you did.
That was that was really nice. And I said, yeah,
did you think, uh, what do you think of those
shots of you? Do you think they might be a
little green? And I couldn't hold back my grin on that,

(01:18:21):
and he caught, really caught that I had done that
on purpose, and got all Clint Black, you go so
and so and uh. But it's it was his nature
to just kind of leave it alone and not hurt
your feelings by saying anything about how terrible he Yeah,
I made him look and uh, that's just who he is.

(01:18:42):
And um, and so I have a lot of fun
with him because I I'll kind of come at him
sideways and and uh and kind of ripping my partner.
He's quite the practical joker, but uh, I seemed to
get him pretty well. Uh most of the time. He's
a real great guy. But I love to mess with them.
I love it. Um, if you wouldn't mind, if you'll

(01:19:05):
indulge us a bit, you know, would you play some
or all of America America is Still in Love with
You from the record why don't I do some of that?
Does that bother anybody a little? High? I like to
go ahead and establish upfront, which notes I don't want
to play. Here is some This is from the new

(01:19:27):
record US some of America Still in Love with You
from Clint Black. There he is. Clint Black got a
new album. It's called Out of Saynes. Got that song
on a whole bunch of other ones that you will
like too. If you like Clint Black like I do,
I'm a massive fan. It's a real treat to get
to meet you and just know you a little bit,
and you know you were in the black baseball cap.

(01:19:47):
Now is that to replace the cowboy? Is that the
second string? This is? Uh whatever hed it is. It's
gotta be black because that makes my head look thinner.
But I thought, I thought, coming in the studio, I
probably need to wear some head owns man here, so
I wore my ball cap. I don't have the headphone
Jackson the cowboy hat? Yeah? Well also no headphones. Look

(01:20:08):
how fancy we are? See when's the last time you
played a radio When the last time you played a
radio show? I did an interview in the last three
years nineteen. No, come on, come on, listen, Clint. You
remember it's a good question. I have a question. Good
So they make do they make cowboy hats? Oh? My goodness,

(01:20:30):
he's kidding. It was a Joe He's kidding. See same
way I get Steve Warren. I was like, oh, why
have we never seen that before? Okay, there should be
a USB port on them. Never mind, carry on, Clint.
Good to see you. Good to see you, hopefully me
hopefully I see it around a little more. It's just

(01:20:50):
as I'm a big fan and of you as a
artist and as a person. Now I got to know
you love it thank you anything, big fan. Also mostly
if you're dancing, but the other show, yeah, the check
it out this week. It's those first week numbers up.
I feel like I have interests in a lot of things,
but I have no interest whatsoever, and going to space

(01:21:12):
really none. And there's this whole you can go for
one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars. They're saying now.
If you've ever wanted to travel to the edge of
space but you don't trust rocket technology, a new startup
called Space Perspective wants to take your money and send
you toward the stars in a big, old balloon. Designed
to be an alternative to fledgling rocket based space tourism,

(01:21:35):
the company's spaceship Neptune capsules are packed with paying customers
and then carried it off to a height of approximately
one hundred thousand feet. If this were free, I wouldn't
do it. Oh, I was gonna say, yeah for sure, right, No, no, yeah,
I don't. I'd have no interest in going high. I
don't like heights and the high and in a balloon.
I did a hot air balloon once, miserable your own

(01:21:55):
you're in a basket. You're basically the sandwich in a
picnic basket and you're just floating and you're like, hey,
what are they want to go down? They're like, I
don't know, we'll see. I mean, what do you mean
you don't know, we'll see. There there are three of
us crammed in this little balloon and we're up. It's
somebody doing the fire because the fire makes it go up.
And then it was me and a friend and I
was doing it for some radio bit and I'm like, hey,

(01:22:18):
do you think we'll go down? It's like, I don't know, man,
it's just kind of where it takes us. We'll find
a build or something that's crazy, and then you're high
and if anything happens, there's nothing you're did you just die? Yeah?
That's why they hit power lines sometimes. That's got to
be a bad navigating. Would you do this? Would you
get in this balloon from for Free? Nope? Nope? Yes?

(01:22:39):
Oh gosh, space, Are you kidding me? It's a where
no man has gone before, or very few men at least,
and women no interest. Like way braver than I am
in this show. There's one episode that I'm doing in
this new nat GEO show, I think where I have
to do something almost like that going to the Moon,
and yeah, can you imagine? And I was just like,

(01:23:00):
I don't know how I feel about this guy. Wow,
But me being reluctant makes me go, it's gonna be interesting. Then, yeah,
because you don't want someone going I'm so comfortable, let's
do it. I don't I'll tell you off the air
what it is. I don't know that I can reveal
stuff I'm doing on this makes sense your show yet,
But I'm like, okay, now we want to know. A
swimmer in Delaware caught a shark with his bare hands.

(01:23:23):
How big? Oh like the huge, like a big like
a small kayak um. You see the swimmer dragging the
shark in the shallow water, and then as people on
the shore stand in shock, the swimmer takes the shark's
mouth and opens it up. What. Yeah, he catch catches
the shark fits under his arm. It's a big one,

(01:23:44):
and he just kind of lives it out of the water.
Crazy by the way, if you're thinking about doing this,
but yeah, I saw the video on TMZ and the
story on TMZ, and I don't mind sharks that much.
I would do stuff with stuff with sharks. I feel
like animals. They just want to be animals, unless they're
a predator and they're hungry, like, for example, snakes. I

(01:24:05):
grew up in the woods in Arkansas. Snakes don't scare me.
If I actually step on a snake, it scares me
because a snake will react to almost being stepped on. Yes,
if there's a snake five feet away, I'm like, look
at the snake. How about that living his life. You
don't mess with someone's life. They usually don't mess with you. Snakes.
Same way. But imagine if somebody if you're in a
bar and someone comes up and bumps into you real hard,

(01:24:25):
you get mad back. But if somebody's walking five feet
away and doesn't hitch you, you don't get mad back.
Do You just live in each other's life. But I'm
not I'm not scared of snakes or sharks. They're same
thing with sharks though, even if they're just swimming right here,
five feet away from they're just living their lives. No way,
that's so scary. You're scared of sharks because they want
to sometimes eat. Yeah, yeah, and that's the thing bones
They can't tell you when they're hungry. Yeah, I'm okay,

(01:24:47):
I would rather be with a bunch of sharks than
be up in that space balloon that I don't know. Really, really,
what are you? I I'm scared of heights, but what
are you scared of heights? I don't I struggle with needles. Yeah,
I have to look away snakes, spiders, spiders big time. Yeah,

(01:25:09):
I guess I don't mind that stuff. But yeah, with me,
it's hides. Yeah, you eddie sharks because you grew up
near the ocean. I grew up like thirty minutes from
the from South Padre. Yeah. And and sharks like because
the murky water you don't know what's under there. And
the Lord, did you ever get hit by a shark?
Or everyone ever get bit? Why would you be scared
of them? Because I know they're there, Like, they're there,

(01:25:31):
and and sometimes you can't even see them. Yeah, all right,
why don't we play Travis Denning after a few If

Instagram channel, I GTV channel. Just go to at Bobby

Probably that's not crazy. It sounds like they're on recorded phone, right, Wow,

(01:26:40):

Show Driver's Test. Mark. Can we go over the second?
One answer for each question. It's funny, Mike Head to
write this out, because you know it's that cheating. You

is worth one point. Here you go. Here's the first
question on the test. You must stop when you see

whenever red lights are However, he's already going, I'm talking.
Everybody's already doing their test. Yeah, I can't wait. Well,
I mean there's a couple ofs. I'm like, are we
taking it right now? Well, no, we'll take a break. Okay,

(01:28:30):
we'll take a break and takes the test. How do
you feel did you study? I did not. I forgot it.
I'm just trying not to finish last. If a lion
is chasing you and your buddy isn't say you and
two buddies, right, You don't have to win running away
from the line. You just got to not finish last. Yeah,
or like, what's it call running with the bulls? Same thing.
Just don't kill those bulls, run through other people and
get other people. The line's gonna eat one person and stop.

(01:28:53):
Don't get eat by the line. All right, the driver's test.
Do you want to just play a song and come back? Yes, yes,
we have only a song length to take this. No, no, no, no,
we have like fifteen minutes. Okay, yeah, okay, we'll start
the test. Let's do beer can't fix From Thomas Rhet
and John parton what Nothing get a hard question? What

(01:29:17):
are you on number four in the world? Am I
supposed to know number four? Yeah? I mean it's every
it's different everything. The question is for number four. The
speed limit is blank miles per hour when the yellow
lights are flashing on the school speed signs, because we've
seen it before. Okay, you muss hit up a lot
of school songs. Yeah, yeah, are you hanging out? I

(01:29:39):
have kids? All right, let's start now, here's a song.
Everybody take your driver's test. We'll come back in a second.
Right now, everybody's heads are down. Everybody's taking the driver's test.
It's twenty questions. Whomever finishes last of six of us
has to wash the rest of the show member's feet

(01:30:00):
on tomorrow's shoe, which, by the way, you guys all,
that's the one you guys voted on the punishment. Nobody's
looking up at me. By the way, everybody listening right now,
we're five people short. I'm listening because none of the
show's paying hitches. I got it. How you guys felt
like you're doing perfect? I'm still stuck on four. I
know I skipped four. I need to remember, go back
and answer it, so at least get the shotting. There's

(01:30:21):
one question I don't understand. You want to read it? Yeah?
Which one? Number number two? Number two? The four second rule? Yeah,
that refers to hell help him, it's easy. I thought
I had to do with food five seconds? Oh? The
question is the fourth second rule refers to how one
should A yield the other cars, B turn it, stop signs,

(01:30:44):
see follow another car, or D cross an intersection. I've
never heard him a four second rule at all. Good luck,
I know it. Like, where'd you get all these questions?
Is a state test twenty twenty test? Huh? All right,
we all just took a written driver's test. Mike d
is in the marathon green room from a little plug

(01:31:06):
here is he's grading the tests. The order Ray was
the last one to turn his ind Is that because
you feel like you got them all or because you struggled?
I like to read questions multiple times. I just don't
want to kick myself, you know, second guess myself so
the order of turning them in just so we can
reflect back which doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. I was first,

(01:31:28):
LB was second, Amy was third, Eddie was fourth, Morgan
number two was next to last, and she yells I failed.
I do think I failed. Were you a quick test
taker in school? No? I hate taking tests. I have
test anxiety where I love taking tests and I just
either know it immediately or I don't. That's why i'm quick.
It's like, see it, no it, don't know it, guess,

(01:31:49):
move on. So it'll be interesting to see. Why don't
we play as I see it, don't know it, stare
at it for a while, still don't know it, skip it,
hoping I remember to go back to it later, take
the whole test and go back to the ones I skipped. Also,
Ammy didn't put her name on our test, and they
had to come in and be like, somebody didn't put
their name on their test, you'll know it's mine. I
made a couple of comments side thoughts. We'll get our

(01:32:13):
results right after this. Here is Gabby Barry. I hope
we'll come in with the results. The last place person
is the foot washer. Okay, that'll be next, all right,
Mike d has entered the room with all of our
tests from the driving exam. Here he is. He came
in with a smile on his face too. Now, six
of us took it. In the end, five will be standing,

(01:32:36):
but one will be known as the worst driver on
the Bobby Bones Show and that person has to pay
the price in washing everybody's feet tomorrow. So, Mike, what
was your overall overarching conclusion after reading all these tests?
I was pretty surprised at at who did the best? Oh? Interesting,
that means you didn't because Bobby you are given that

(01:33:01):
you would do the best. So he's surprised. I like this, Okay, Mike,
did I do the best? Well? Two people did the best? Okay?
Am I one of them? You are listen. I got
a little scared too, I'll be honest with you. What
is that feeling? Because you probably haven't had it really well.
It was like, well, maybe I didn't know it as

(01:33:21):
well as I thought I did. Okay, so I tied
with someone? You did tie with somebody? Wow? Out of
twenty questions, how many did I get twenty? Somebody else?
And it's surprising to you, and it's surprising. Maybe it's
Ray because that's who you thought. Well, Eddie started screaming.

(01:33:41):
He thought he Okay, so here are the contestants here.
I'm the host of the show. I'm Bobby um Amy
is my co host. Uh pretty, No, I'd say you're pretty.
Got a couple of kids, you know. Yeah, Lunchbox to Eddie,
Morgan and Ray all right, Mike up tied with me

(01:34:05):
at twenty questions. Right, so the other perfect score goes
to Lunchbox. What what about God? Are you sure? Oh?
My goodness, I was where the name switch? Sure, Mike

(01:34:27):
because I didn't put my name on it. Okay, So Lunchbox,
you're in the Claire. I'm in the Claire. I feel
so good. I am not going to trim my toe
nails he okay? Also hold on, okay, oh what was
the speed limit of thest question? Number four? And Mike?
Was there a question that all of them missed? Was

(01:34:47):
there one question that was tough for everybody? Be a
different one? Okay, we're all definitely stupid, good, good, perfect.
Not you you're perfect perfect if you got a perfect score.
I can't believe lunch got a perfect score. I know
that I can't believe either. Okay, four people are left. Mike,
who finished and we'll call it third place? Who finished third?
Here's the thing? What's the thing? It's a tie for

(01:35:09):
everybody on the next category? All four? Yeah, and then
one person who came in dead last? Okay? Good? Good, okay? Hello, okay,
so please don't be me please. So there are four
people left at three of them finished third? Correct? This
is great? Okay? Who's one of the people that finished third? Ray? Okay?

(01:35:35):
Now I'm worried. Did I not understand how they were
asking it? Clear? How do you feel? Ray? Oh? That's awesome.
That's why you take your time kids when you're doing
those tests. It's not a rush. It was a last
one in, so lunch. Now were the first two and
Ray was the last one in and we're all clear? Yeah? Okay?

(01:35:55):
Who else is? Who else is in the clear? Morgan
number two? O? God, who do you think lost? This
is crazy? Now let me say what happens. I'm but
I just think how many did this whole second group

(01:36:16):
of people having a full second group only missed one question?
And then the worst worst one? How may they get right?
Eighteen out of twenty? Everybody's pretty good too? Oh gosh?
If I missed the gang one and the it's the
four second rule that got me. I bet okay, I
know that one. Hold on everybody either Amy, our video

(01:36:39):
producer ready watching everyone's feet. It's soap anti dude. I
was so confident finishing, he said to me. I may
I got all twenty of them, right. I can't believe
during a pandemic or watching feet, my feet aren't or
have no infectious. They're not worried about yours mine are good?

(01:37:00):
All right? Um, my core down to it. So do
you want to tell us who's just finished last? No? No,
that's okay. Well what are they doing? Like the pageants? Though?
How do they do that? They do the runner up
and then the chimp? So we're not doing last place?
All right? Just whatever, Just say the name of the
person is to wash the feet, the feet washer. Are

(01:37:22):
you ready? The person with the lowest score with eighteen
out of twenty is Eddie. Yeah you were every year.
I'm just smart. I'm shot by this, Eddie. See see.

(01:37:42):
I demand a recount. I demand a recat. There's no
way the Great House to be wrong. There's only one
question that I doubted, and it was the four second rule. Hey,
can you hear me, Eddie? Yeah? Which one did he miss?
I missed the four second rule? Oh? What is the
four second rules? How many car space? You should have? It?
Twa cars? You missed the second one about the four

(01:38:03):
second rule? First to how many you put turns at
stop signs? Oh? No? Which the answer is every need
four seconds in between cars? Yeah? Great, I didn't know
that obviously. I learned it as four car links. But yeah,
but the rest of should second there should be four seconds? Yeah, right, um, eddie,

(01:38:26):
you missed. Lanes of traffic moving in the opposite direction
are divided by willow yellow in the middle. Well for
opposite traff the one where you pass because it's white,
white is on the outside. I'm talking country one stop
and the yellows are on the side. No, yellow, white's

(01:38:48):
on the very side, yellows in the middle. And now
I have to watch. Do you want to preview? No?
I don't. Oh how do I what? I don't get it.
I don't get it. I was so confident tortoise in
the hair? Ray was the tortoise? You were the hair? No?
I don't finished that fast. I try to dust I

(01:39:08):
was the hair. I try to double check questions and
look them over. Here you go, Mike, this is terrible.
This reminds me of school, dude, bad memories of school.
You're the worst driver on the show. Just one, just one,
because Eddie missed two. Everybody, nice job, though, should make
us feel safe. But tomorrow on the show, Eddie will
wash everybody's all right. Well, anything you want to say

(01:39:29):
before hit this button? Now this sucks. Okay, there it is.
Which one did I miss? Just hit it? Raymondo. I
saw a taste of country, tweet out name a country
song that's help you get through a tough time, and
then tagged the artist and they were a bunch and
Darius replied and wrote, I Wish it would rain by
Nancy Griffith. I know, so I was thinking about this.

(01:39:58):
I coach something to help me get through a tough
time from about I don't know, sixth grade. On any
time anything bad would happen into my life, I would
play this next song I want to play in a second.
But anytime something bad would happen, I get beat up.
I get beat up. Oh man, all right, get beat up.
You know I'll get me fun YEA or a girl
just wouldn't like we I think we called it go

(01:40:18):
with Me or Be My Girlfriend. I would play this
song right here because it would get me through and
think I'm gonna keep going regardless. I will, So I
turn it up and be like, I'm gonna keep going,
Baby Bird the River, Thank you Brooks. So my entire

(01:40:38):
teenage angst was Garth the River and Nirvana. All Nirvana.
But yeah, I would play that. That's the country song.
They got me to a lot of a lot of
kid tough times and we have one. Yeah, it's a
great day to be alive. Oh yeah, you told us
the story you would cry in your shower. Yes, this
isn't Travis Trip though, right. Corey Morrow and Pag Greene

(01:41:01):
did a cover. So I would actually listen to the
CD of this my sophomore year of college. I'm trying
to picture out which bathroom I was in. Yeah, sophomore year,
and I spent a lot of time in the shower
on the floor with the water just running on me
while this song played. Because of one guy, Does that

(01:41:24):
this song remind you of that guy? Oh yeah, I'm
gonna be thinking about him right now. No, no, no,
we had just broken up. I think we even got
back together after this anyway. But I just anytime I
hear this song, It's such a great song and has
such an awesome message, but which I can fully appreciate.

(01:41:44):
But also at the same time, I'm curled up in
a ball in my shower when I hear it. Whenever
you hear Travis Trip I got Ross Cook, does it
remind you of that? Yes, automatically automatic, There is no
I have not heard that song since then and not
immediately transported back to my shower floor. I didn't know
that one was such a pressure hit. Oh yeah, I mean,

(01:42:06):
I can't tell you how many times do you know
all the words? Probably we play it? She starts crying,
because I don't know what I'm crying. I have no idea.
It isn't trigger. I don't know. I mean, I haven't
listened the whole thing through in a long time. But
I bet, I bet I probably could Eddie have a
country song that got you through a tough time. Yeah.
I don't think I ever told you guys this, but
like I don't know, three years ago or whenever this
came out, I was just going through hard time, just

(01:42:28):
not really understanding what my point wasn't this was before
foster children, you know, and like really not knowing what
my purpose was. And I remember just driving home one
day and Jake Owens, what's it called, um, well, we
ain't got came on? Yeah, and it just put everything
in perspective with me, like I've always just wanted things
that I don't have, Like I have a beautiful family,

(01:42:50):
great family, a great job, good friends. And it was
one of those drive homes where I was like, I
don't know why I've been feeling so bad for like months.
I got it now. And then soon after this we
got I mean, we get certified to foster. Now I've
got two foster kids and life's changed. Crazy, man. I've
never recent and I never shared this of you guys
get that. That's a good song though it's a jam.

(01:43:13):
Well that tweets still up if you guys want to reply,
or you can leave us a voicemail. Just hit the
voicemail and leave us a country song that has got
you through a tough time in wine. We could play
some of those back on tomorrow's show eight seven, seven
seventy seven. Bobby, all right, here's a great day to
be alive. You can play it. It doesn't make me sad.

(01:43:33):
I don't know. It's a great song. I love it.
It doesn't make me sad, but I I just my
brain goes to the shower. You're cool to play because
I don't want to hit play. If you're gonna cry,
you should play it. It's a great song. Okay, I
got it's cooking in the micro way. Ah, here's Travis
