Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to Tuesdays show Morning Studio Morning. Let's go around
the room. He's officially done with the twenty five Whistles
(00:20):
and the Sore Loser's podcast. So now when it's time
to leave work, he won't always be the last. Yeah,
I'll be the first. Here he is, Guys, I think
I'm done with this Mexican tradition. I've been doing my
entire life, and it's hitting a pinata. So like come Easter,
birthday parties, ever since I was a little kid, I
(00:41):
was gonna ask that I've I've hit piatas, but yeah,
what when do you traditionally hit them? All? Celebration? He celebration,
any celebration where you can find an excuse to buy
a pinata and hit it. You do it, and you
fill it up with candy, and all the kids either
blindfold them or whatever. They get a broomstick and hit
the crap out of the piniatautil the candy falls out,
(01:02):
and I'm like, I love this. And then like over
the weekend Easter comes, I buy a piniat that's a
cute little bunny, fill it up with candies, and then
I watched my kids just beat the crap out of it,
arm falls off, leg falls off, the bunny's headless, and
they're just loving, like killing this bunny. And I'm like,
is this really a good tradition? I may stop doing
(01:22):
it because I the feeling I had while it was happening.
I'm like, this is not good. What if it wasn't
a bunny. What if it was like a pinata. I
don't know, Sam, who's saying, Oh now, I'm a change
it up. If it was something you hated, or like
a Philadelphia Eagle since you're Dallas cowboy faces the super
Bowl trophies, since your Cowboys fan. Yes, okay, well he
wants that though. He just takes that and puts it
(01:43):
on the shelf. So I would just say, I don't
think you should kill the tradition. I think you should
put things up there. You don't mind killing, okay, because
piniatas are fun. I think on my birthday party a
couple of years ago, there was a piniata that was
made for me. Didn't you kill it? I missed? They
kept pulling it up. Yeah, that's the best part. Don't
(02:04):
kill it yet. I say, fine, pinatas that you hate, okay,
or make your own find some bad people and a
lunchbox head. Oh yeah, yeah, all right, moving on. He
made us guests the celebrity he saw in the wild,
which is okay until we found out it was the
guy sitting next to him every single day that was
the celebrity. Might yeah, yeah, here he is lunchbox everybody.
Oh boy, So last week I came to you and
(02:25):
said that the Ultima, the five Ultima baby in a movie.
Someone hit me on Instagram there'll be filming a movie
in their neighborhood and they were looking for two thousand vehicles.
You're two thousand that area to park on the street
for a scene. So I texted the director. I said, hey, man,
I got to know five Ultima. Would you like it
in the movie? And he was like, that would be great.
Send us some pictures of the Ultima. Send him a
(02:46):
picture And I waited, and I waited. Thirty two hours later,
got a text back said, oh, we got all the
cars we need. Thanks. Do you think it's because your
car so beat up? I just think I waited too long.
Maybe No, I think your right bones like they need
a car that looks new, yes, not old in the
(03:08):
two thousand, Yes, that's what I think too. I saw
a picture of it. It's all rusty. What are you
gonna get a new car? Oh? Let me see, not
anytime soon. I mean it's still running. Yeah, no, I
get it got gas in it. If it's running, and
it's still feels safe to drive with the kids in it?
Does it sometimes? Yeah? See sometimes I started up and
I feel like it shakes a little bit, but I
(03:30):
can respect it. But there comes a time when it's
time to kind of just move on. Yeah. My kids
do always say that your car's really dirty. Well that's
not that's just you being disgustingly. Yeah. Yeah, but the
car does struggle, right sometimes? How many miles to have
on it? Two hundred and fourteen thousand and three hundred
(03:51):
twenty something like that. Wow. And so do you ever
drive your kids more than fifteen minutes in it? Yeah,
like on the highway. Well yeah, I'm a high When
do you feel completely safe about that? Yeah? Okay, Well
then there you go, as long as you feel safe
with them. Any I wonder how my wife feels. I
don't know if she feels safe with the kids in
the car and she just don't feels safe when you
drive away in it. And I'm not even in it.
(04:12):
I'm just like, oh, I didn't get end well for him.
I'm gonna ask my wife if she feels comfortable with
me taking the kids. And because she always like, oh,
you can take my car, that's probably why I'm moving on.
She does the morning Corny and the pie a, don't
She always tries to make a smile here. She has
amy everybody. So I was driving in my car with
my son. I was taking him to jiu jitsu, and
all the sudden, out of nowhere, a warning light comes
(04:32):
on and it's red. I get warning lights, you know,
I've got them before, but they're yellow, so I feel
like those you can just ignore, but when it's red
you have to pay attention. And yellow means keep going
but with cautious yeah. And it says on the screen
or like don't drive over thirty miles per hour. And
I'm like, really, I mean, why what's the light look like?
(04:53):
It says it's not a tire light. It was like
the little warning triangle thing red, and then it was
telling me don't drive over thirty. That's what it was. Tough.
I've never seen that one, you never in my life.
I didn't even know my car had whatever was happening,
and I thought, well, I mean, surely I can go
a little bit over thirty if I hear surely. Well.
I wasn't trying to go fifty or anything, but I thought, well,
(05:15):
if I go thirty one, we'll see what happens. And
it starts beeping at me. My son starts freaking out
because he's like mom. So then I try to stay
at like twenty five and I'm taking him and I
drop him off at jiu jitsu, and then I immediately
just go to the dealership driving twenty five and it's
not that far, so that's good, and I roll up.
I don't have an appointment or anything. I just go
(05:36):
in and explain the situation. They still don't know what
it is. I have a loaner. I have no idea
what's going on, Smoke coming out from under the hood
or anything. Right, No, But I mean I'm waiting to
get the call. We'll see what's hat. I hope that
it's just like a programming thing. What are you going
to get a new car? Amy? I mean that is
not safe. I mean you want to borrow? Come on,
that can be a computer issue. I am hoping that's
(05:58):
what it is, because I don't want it to be.
I don't know. This seems like it could be a
big deal. I've never heard of don't drive over thirty
well speed, don't go under a forty or whatever the
bustle explodes movie Keiana read, oh the movie where if
you go and maybe a sixty you go under sixty
that everything explodes. But other than that, haven't heard of
your version of it called slow Yeah, And it's a
beep beep, beep beep, and so they're trying to figure
(06:20):
it out, but shout out thankfully the people are working
their were listeners because they helped me out that muscle.
I didn't. I didn't. I didn't. I didn't say anything.
They said, do we listen to the show? She's going
full lunchbox on us? WHOA, I did not say a
thing you support that I supported. Listen, Amy, when you
(06:43):
gotta get suff done, drop names, saying, hey, throw your
arms up, make a scene. Let him know who you are.
I didn't wear a name tag. Good for you, Amy,
God you reflects on the show. I didn't. All right,
Ray go ahead from Mountain Pine, Arkansas. He drives slow
like an eighty year old and all other areas of
his life. He's pretty bold, Bobby, thank you. I want
to tell you guys that I'm on this. I mentioned it,
(07:05):
but I'm on this anti parasite cleanse now. And so
I take a dropper of whatever, and I take two
pills three times a day, fifteen days, and I'm trying
to cleanse myself of these parasites that I have declared
I have inside of me. I think that could have
been the issue with what. But I'm just gonna say this.
Make sure day one and day two that you do this.
If you decide to do as I'm doing, you're not
(07:26):
at work or anywhehy Oh no, you get it, Eddie,
you open the pipes up. Oh, just like it's been trial.
It's been hard. It's been hard. You know it's been hard.
So have you passed me? I don't know. My wife's
that same thing to be passed anything. I'm like, I
mu supposed to know. Do you check the toilet? No,
it's no, no, No, I can't run from it fast enough.
(07:47):
I'm out of there. Oh, I hit it and just go.
I'm just gonna let let it be okay. As a
wise man once said, let it be, let it be,
and hopefully it's just gonna have happened. But I'm doing
it right now. But I don't know how he's supposed
to know. Well, if you're not, that's too early in
the morning for that crap. Literally, And I'm not. I'm not.
(08:08):
I'm just taking it. I don't even know that I
have one. But it also says you can do it.
This is the eighty percent of humans have parasites in
that that which is crazy. That's right. So I'm in
the middle of that. I'm feeling pretty good today. Are
you taking Harris smart? Yeah? Okay, what's the dealt with
parasites before? Like long long time ago? That's good? And no,
you didn't get it for me this, yeah, look at this,
(08:32):
No worry. Somehow I got it from lunchbox. I don't
know how. There we go, Here we go, all right,
let's go. We're here today, we're starting the show. We're
glad you're here. It said this time. Every morning we
hear from you. We answer questions because you send them
to our mail bag. You get something we call maget
(08:54):
he Hello, Bobby Bones. My husband is currently out of
town on two week work trip and enjoying having the
house to himself with just me and the dog, until
last night when our dog wandered into his man cave.
He has one rule, our dog is never allowed in
the man cave. Well, our dog helped himself to a
baseball autographed by Nolan Ryan. His daddy got a sign
(09:16):
for him when he worked for the Texas Rangers in
the early nineties, so he's had it forever. I can
get one on eBay from under one hundred bucks, except
it's not personalized. The options are, should I own up
to it, just tell him the dog chewed it up?
Or should I buy an old baseball with Nolan Ryan's
autograph and forge the personalization myself. Oh no, I have
(09:37):
a little time before he gets back. Signed wife who
dropped the ball? Huh? Now you want to know what
you should do? It? What I would do, because I
would be honest, they ain't the same thing. I don't
think the ink has to be the same color too, though,
like you have to remember and maybe you can still
see it on what the dog ate, but he gonna
(10:00):
be upset. Oh man, I probably get that ball if
it's the same inc like, same size, and just write
the name on it, and you would forge this the
autograph I know, not don't even for geotograph. I would
forge being whatever it was. If I can see it,
I can do it. He's never gonna know when when
(10:21):
you get something monograph, but you don't have tons of
to apotograph and never go look at it again. No, no,
but he's had this since he was a kid, I know,
and he probably looked at this thing thousands of times,
like how cool is this ball? I'm telling you, but
he never walks up and just like it examines it.
I bet it's cool and he has it there, but
I never You shouldn't do what I'm saying, I said,
he said, do you want to know what I would do?
What I would say. What you should do is own
(10:41):
up to it immediately and just take your lumpings and
that's the end. Maybe you could put the chewed up
ball in a little case and you know, it's another
season of our life. But yeah, he's probably gonna be upset.
Or what you can do is you can wait to
tell him when he's in a really good mood about
something else. Oh yeah, did that? Wait and squash the
(11:02):
good mood? No, not squash a good mood, but limit
limit how much bad mood you get. I don't like
that at all, because he's finally he's maybe he's happy
about something, and then you're like coming in with yeah,
then you don't feel the rat Here's another thing too,
like you know, I don't look at my autograph stuff
very often. It could be in five years when he
realizes it's true to absolutely and then you're just like
(11:23):
long and divorced. I mean, yes, that's right, or that
like I don't know what happened. That's weird. So you
can get an autograph Nolan Ryan for ninety nine bucks
for the forty six bucks with thirty nine bucks for
a hundred and two bucks. So your options are there.
You just have to kind of match what the other
one was. If hey, you wrote years on it, okay, yeah, okay.
Could she order a bunch of balls and put them
(11:45):
in like have a ton? And when she goes to
tell him, she's gonna be like, I have something I
have to tell you, and it's horrible. The dog at
your Nolan Ryan. But look I bought you five. But
I think this one's probably about yeah, yeah, the connection
you keep that one, guys. I stand this but it's like, hey,
now you have the chewed up signed a ball and
five extra balls. If he already doesn't like the dog too,
(12:08):
that's an extra wrinkle. Maybe he loves the dog, but
I think you protect the dog and then you get
a fake one for the dog, for the dogs a
life and honor. But that's also on you if you
let the dog in there. I guess once you do,
tell him maybe send the dog to a friend's house
for a few days, oh until the dog dies of
natural causes way down the line, and tell him then
(12:31):
you want to hear something funny. You want to go
look at your ball? Okay, what should she do? What
should she do? Not? What did I say? What should
she do? Amy? What I said? Go buy it as
many balls as you can. It's expensive, Okay, as you can,
so maybe it's the forty four dollar one or whatever
you said, and then present him with a lot of
balls and tell him, I don't know. You still have
(12:53):
to be honest out of the gate. Why not, And
don't don't do it on a day that he's really
happy about something. I would do it then, because he's
not going to be Nay. I thought you should reach
out to Nolan Ryan on social media and see if
he could personalize the ball to your husband, explain what happened.
The only problem is Nolan Ryanan got social media, so
you're just gonna have to tell him express jerky, just
gonna have to tell him and say, look, I'm a
(13:14):
bad wife, Eddie. Nothing. Just put the ball where it
was and just pray to God that he never sees it.
Enough time passes. It could be a kid's fault and
they never admitted exactly that's weird. Let me you can
even play with let's weird. I don't know what that is.
What evan dog was this? I don't want the dog
in here, That's what I'm saying. I you should just
(13:35):
tell him, get it over with, rip the band aid off.
But I would get a fake one and write the
name on it. And if your goldfish died and I
was watching, I could find the same one. I put
the goal, I replaced the goldfish. You better dang believe it,
because I want you to feel the best. Saying about me,
it's about you. I want you to feel it best.
It's that memory with your dad. We can't replace that memory,
but we can make sure you still feel great. About it,
about the ball that you got kinda not really but
(13:57):
still there. I want to be sad about it. Tell
them the truth. All right, that's the email, that's the
mail bag, close it up. We got your And I
was about the clothes. Big. I always know when two
different people in the show send me an idea. So
I'm gonna talk about it. But they have two different
(14:17):
versions of what happened. It's gonna be so good for
the year. And so it's Lunchboxing Morgan number two and
they both said, Hey, I want to talk about something
that happened up here at the building yesterday. And so
I'm gonna let Lunchbox go first, Yes, thank you, and
then I'm gonna go to Morgan and let her tell
her side of the story. So what happened. So they
had a Duncan truck out front where they were giving
away free coffee, and I thought donuts. So I was like, awesome,
(14:39):
So I'd go out there to get some free donuts.
I'm excited and they go, oh, no, we only have coffee,
but we do have gift cards. And I said, oh
that's great because I have a family and I have kids,
and they would they love donuts. So I'd love to
get some gift cards. You talk to them like that,
so nice and respectfully, and I'm like, I used to
slang donuts for a living. I used to work at
Duncan Donuts. Don't you worry about it? Ye, gift card
(15:00):
be great? And they go, we we only have two left.
And I said, oh, that's perfect, you know what I mean.
And Morgan goes, no, no, no, I need one. I
need one. She came in and snaps one real quick,
go ahead, like, what are you doing. You don't even
have kids, your kids. You're not taking your kids to
get donuts. Isn't like a big day for them? Instead?
So you took two and she got none. No, I
(15:21):
got one. She got one because but your idea was
you wanted to and she got none. Yeah, because she
doesn't have kids to take the donut day and so
only people with kids you get a gift card. The
whole point was I was gonna take my kids the Duncan.
But that's your point. Yeah, But she she was the
she heard, oh, there's only two left and reached in
and grabbed as I was about to get too, So
(15:41):
she why would you get two though? For my kids? No?
I know, but why would they give anybody too? Because
I told him I want to bring my two kids.
Well I have three, but the younger one doesn't understand
what like that way they can each give the gift
card when they're paying for their donut makes them feel special.
Teaches them about how paying at the register when I
get them like a five dollar bills, because I one
has a gift card and one has a five dollar bill,
(16:02):
you could do five dollar bill. No no, no, no,
you're upset because because she just inserted herself in there,
like she was, oh, give me that gift card. She
don't even need one. Okay, now more rude your side. Yeah,
So Lunchbox and I walked out there together to the
food truck, and we walked up at the same time,
and I was very kind, and I was willing to
try the coffee. I don't even drink coffee, but I
(16:23):
was like, hey, you guys are here, and I'm grabbing one,
and the girl goes, hey, I have a gift card
for each of you guys, hands them directly to both
of us, and Lunchbox tries to snatch the one out
of her hand that she's giving to me and says,
you don't deserve one, you don't have kids. A different story,
So only people with kids deserve a gift card for
free donuts. Apparently he kept repeating it, and he would try.
(16:45):
I was just standing there trying to talk to the girl,
and he kept coming up to me and like trying
to grab it out of my hand like we were
playing a game. Was he serious? I don't know, I assume. So, okay,
everybody that's not Morgan a lunchbox your final thoughts? Who
wins the big debate here? And Morgan? Why? I mean,
what do I even have to say? Oh? Are you
(17:06):
not going with me? For his own sake? Go ahead, Okay,
I would just say that Morgan was present. She's the
one there, She's just like you. She was handed the
gift card for the people that are physically there, and
just because Morgan doesn't have kids doesn't mean she doesn't
get a gift card. Also, what if somebody else would
have been there at the exact same time and they
didn't have kids, You didn't know them, You would have
done that to them, right, You only did it to
her because you know her. I would have tried to
(17:27):
take two. But if they were like, no, that's for her.
You would have been like, well, I got kids, random person.
You don't know that. I do know that, Eddie. Look,
I have four kids, right, so I side with Morgan.
That's so dumb. Like there were two gift cards, one
for each of you. That's how it works. Yeah, and
you don't get more just because you have kids. I disagree.
You get more back on your taxes, but not donuts.
(17:50):
You don't get more doughnuts because you have kids. For
that reason. If it were show us pictures of your
kids day and we'll give you a gift cards more,
I would have gotten different exactly. And also I tried
to let her know, you know that I used to
slaying for Duncan, don't us so like I used to
work there. So it's more like I got loyalty. Morgan
just just a you know, a feather in the wind.
She doesn't care, She'll go I stay local. But their
point is, and I'm like, you said that they don't
(18:11):
need your business because you're staying local and loyal, and
she she's a feather in the wind. Maybe that gets
her there. I don't know, Morgan, you're completely the right.
Do you have your card? I do have it? How
much was the card ward? I think it's like five dollars.
See what, why do you just y'all see, she stole
five dollars from me. She didn't steal it from you. Also,
you said you get money back on your taxes. That
means you have more money than I do as a
(18:31):
single person. So take it and buy donuts with it.
And you don't get more just because you have kids.
As far as like gift cards, Okay, I disagree, but
I tried, and she stole it. And I mean the
lady had two in her hand and I was reaching
for him, and here, don't matter, here comes this little
little grabby hands. I did not grab it. Oh you did.
Why do you have grabby hands? What is that exactly?
(18:52):
Grab it out of that lady's hands? Grabby hands? All right,
I've done a bit, Morgan. You win, though they it's
done for the good news. Melissa Morris lives in Wynn, Arkansas,
and a couple of weeks ago those tornadoes ripped through
her town. It was coming through. She heard the sirens,
(19:14):
so she went into her bathroom hid and she was okay,
But when she got out, her house was destroyed. She
had lost a shed, and in that shed was a
bunch of her old memory, a bunch of pictures that
she lost. She was like, I'm never gonna find these. Well,
one hundred and fifty miles away. John ellis who lives
in Bradford, Tennessee, walking around his yard one hundred and
fifty miles away and he sees a picture. He's like,
(19:35):
this is interesting, so he puts it on social Media's
like does anyone know who this is? And somehow it
got back to Melissa. It was Melissa's daughter's basketball picture
from high school. I don't know how many years ago,
but it had the high school name on the jersey,
so it connected her and Melissa got her picture back.
So this is crazy. So I mean, if anyone else
sees pictures out there, send them my way. Do you know?
(19:56):
Melissa said, I can't believe the picture will blow a
hundred fifty mile. I'm from a tornado. That's unbelievable. Are
you sure you didn't like land in a car and
then the car drive possibly like the forest guns. That's crazy.
I mean, I get tornadoes and how big they are
and how strong, but a picture that far also again
not add But if you have old pictures, you should
(20:18):
get Legacy box and save them all, make them digital. Yeah.
I don't even know what the code is. What's the code?
It's the bones. Yeah, you got a Legacy box dot
com put in the code bones and any old pictures
that you have, just pictures on paper in general, you
send them in and they'll make it digital, even old videos.
So something like this happens. We probably got us have
a tornado, right, but one hundred miles I'm blown away
by that me too, Man. I saw a number of
(20:38):
double checked it and like that's just one picture. It
was one picture that he found. But I mean she's
got a lot of pictures out there. So so you
were in one hundred forty mile radius be looking for
pictures and families. That's all right, all right, there you go.
That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good.
So Bobby Bones Show interviews In case you didn't know,
Parker McCollum walking in studio right now, here are three
(20:59):
number one he has as at this moment pretty hard.
What does that say to be loved by you? This one?
Well it's about to be at number one. Here is
handle on. You's got a new album coming out May twelfth,
called Never Enough. Born in Conro, Texas, worked on his
(21:22):
grandparents ranch, you know, spend a lot of time in Austin, Texas.
Is you know total Texas country dude who is living
in Nashville. Now he's obsessed with shoes and he's a
good dude here he is. Now, come on it man
on the Bobby Bones Show. Now, everybody good to see you.
It's good to see. Do you have any lyrics? People
mess up all the time. Um, I have something that
(21:43):
I mess up all the time. I asked that because
I don't know. I don't know why we're singing. Ed
when McCain, when you walked in, you know it will
be your crying. Showed that song right there, and there's
a lyrics that goes, I'll be love suicide. The namy goes, well,
I thought it. I've always said, like your love Superstar.
(22:06):
I can see that. I feel like that's common with
hit songs because I do that songs I grew up
listening to or whatever, and like years later I'll find out.
I'm like, yeah, that's what it's always saying. Yeah, she
just found but I'm being told that's kids bops version amy,
do you listen to kids? Do you have any lyrics
so that you hear people sing back at all? That
you're like, man, that that is not right at how
(22:26):
that lyrics because if you have none, that means you
nunciate perfectly and it all makes sense. I do not.
I'm actually the band calls me the king of the
gibberish on stage because I'll go, I'll do, I'll sing
a whole verse and never say a word of English.
But I just you know, it's a melody, but Samley,
Sammy until I get back to the chorus, because I
can't remember the words to my own song. That fatally
(22:48):
that As to where the audience thinks that you're actually
doing it or do they know you're doing gibberish, I
would say sonically, they can tell one hundred percent that
I'm not saying the right words because they know the
words of the songs. Yeah, but I'm I'm out there.
I sell it. I don't even skip a beat. Do
you do the thing where you stick the microphone out
there if you don't remember the word? Sometimes I have
before I do that on the show sometimes, but no
listeners will yell back because they can't so it just
(23:09):
makes it awkward when no one does it. They're letting
you do handle on. You's crushing it is doing good. Yeah, congratulations,
thank you. I did see you tweet something a couple
of weeks ago where You're like, you know, I never
wrote about beer maybe in a song. I've never said
the word beer in a song. Yeah, so what is
that about? I just purposeful as a kid, he said,
(23:30):
I'm never writing about beer, And then why did you change? No?
Maybe not intentional, but I just kind of dawned on me.
I was, you know, thinking about this record and can
it be successful in today's country music world? And you know,
what are so many songs about so many there are
so many common topics in country music. It kind of
gets repetitive, and so I've always tried to stay away
from that. And I was kind of wondering had I
(23:51):
done that on this record? And I thought I had,
And then I was like what. At the same time this,
I did say beer, and it's the first time I've
ever said that in a song. So what song was that?
On the new record? It's called Hurricane. I wrote it
with David Lee Murphy. It's the lead track on the record.
You're right there with Bandy Rodgers too, Randy Rodgers and
John Randall. But it was David Lee's song. He had
written the chorus We're just over at my house hanging out,
and he played it and I was like, dang, I
(24:14):
want to sing that. I like that a lot. Did
you consider not even putting the song on the record? Okay?
I like it. I think it's really cool. And I
like beer songs. I like drinking songs. I have a
lot of songs about drinking. I mean, I wrote a
song about whiskey. I never said the word whiskey, you know,
just seems generic at times, and I think, you know,
there's got to be a place for it, like certain
words that you know, kind of get overused, and um,
(24:37):
it's a I don't know, I have a beer song. Though.
Have you been to a concert lately at all? Last
show you've seen, last concert that I would have gone
for fun? Oh? Well that long, huh, because you're just
on the road so much. Probably John Mayer here in
Nashville last year Holly and I went. I went to
him here, who's a solo tour a couple of weeks ago. Yeah,
(25:00):
I know you're a big John Mayor fan as well.
But it's gotta be tough to go to a concert
when you're always out doing concerts, and then most concerts
are pretty much when you're gone anyway. Do you ever
do anything on the road though, if you're like on
Friday or Saturday, do you ever like purposefully if your
wife's out with you, like we're gonna spend the day
doing this because we don't do a lot of stuff.
Sometimes it's hard to have your wife on the road
(25:20):
with you because there's so much stuff I'm accustomed to
doing on the road, and I have such a routine
when I'm on tour, and she doesn't. You know, she's
not gonna work out in front of everybody in the
bus with the guys. She actually would, I guess, but
she doesn't on the road. Um, she doesn't go and
play I go play golf all the time. But like
we at the same time, we'll go to a baseball game,
you know, if we have a night show and there's
(25:41):
a day game, like in Saint Louis or something. We've
done that Bush Stadium. You don't get to go the
whole thing. You only go to a few innings. But
do you wear about getting tired, because that's always my
fear on the roads. I'm gonna get tired, then I'm
not gonna be able to nail it at night. Yeah,
I mean, you're you're one. You're so accustomed to just
kind of going all the time. It's kind of why
I have trouble sleeping when I can when I'm not
on the road, because I'm just so used to that schedule. Um,
(26:04):
but I don't think so. I mean, your body lets
you know when you're when you need some rest. My
body always screams rest, Like right now, I need rest.
I would love I go with three. You did this?
Why I just couldn't sleep. I went to the gym
at like four thirty. I didn't even know they opened
that early. You went to the gym at four thirty
in the morning. You don't try to like suffer it out,
like just be miserable and get another thirty minutes. No,
so I did. I went worked out and went home
(26:25):
and slept an hour and came here. What do you
do when you work out? What's your main thing? I
just right now, I'm just trying to gain a bunch
of weight and just lift and just see how strong
I can get and how big I can get. I've
kind of been muscle dude, I know was the first
thing I know. And I walked down Abay's been listening. Yeah,
just listen this a little something. You know? Well, you
bench press? I don't bench Yeah me either, Really, I
don't max anyway, it's bad for your shoulders. What do
(26:46):
you do squat? Uh? No, I've kind of got this
arthritis in my knee lately, I think from playing golf
maybe and having to have been doing legs a whole bunch.
I just started about a week ago, So I'll do
like real lightweight squats, but a lot of lunges, a
lot of machine legs. Um. How do you feel about
people shirtless in the gym? Uh? It means to be like,
I don't want to be at lifetime with this with
(27:07):
two shirt off. That's not the right vibe there. I
agree with that what I was saying. It is not
the right But there are gems, you know, like old
school just strictly iron gems, which I enjoy. We find
on the road pretty often. Ever, box I did a
little in high school. Um, you know, the workouts are incredible,
but I was I never had had no business trying
to beat somebody up. You're pretty big dude, though, I'll
(27:28):
tall you sixty three. How about your way to fourteen?
He's like, like a linebacker, But I've never I've been
one hundred and ninety three pounds for I mean twenty years.
Let me see you take your shirt off. I wish
I could keep a straight face and just do it,
just be like, yeah, man kidding. I kind of got
(27:51):
a little belly right now because I've been eating and
trying to bulk and get something, gain so much weight
that like, my pants are kind of tight. Hallie was like,
you have a belly? What what does she think about
your body? Does she like you muscular or thin? Or
because my wife, wherever I am, she wants me to
feel good, even if she knows I'm kind of gross.
She's like, I like it right now, even with your pooch.
And I'm like, that's not true. Well that's what she's
(28:12):
supposed to say too. Yes, Um, I don't know. I
think she it's not really. She doesn't really um say
anything about it. She just is like, you've gotten a
little chunky these. Um me, man, God, I'm telling you
what I walked in. I'm like, Bobby, how does that
make you feel? Why would you make that up? Because
he just follows along. Hey, oh well, well we're gonna
(28:32):
come back with parking in a second. We have some
real stuff to talk about. I do want to mention
the tour some additional dates this fall. So every time
I told you this, every time I look at your
pictures from on the road, I pinch and zoom in
and like every she's full, It's been good. It's it's uh,
my career is as good right now, is it as
it's ever been? And honestly, it's a lot bigger than
I ever really dreamed about when I was a kid.
(28:56):
Does make you feel good certainly? Or does it make
you feel anxious like there's a new pressure, a little
anxious at times you just want to deliver? And uh,
you know, your life changes, and you know, I mean
it used the older you get, right, the more responsibility
you have, and you still have a full career to run.
So um, that's kind of where some of the angst
comes from. But um, I don't know. I mean, you,
(29:17):
it's up to you. It's all mental, you know, if
you want to handle it and step up to the
plate and deliver the opportunities there because I didn't really
want to handle it. But now, well that's a motivation.
He's like, suck it up, loser, Okay, man, you got it. Uh,
Parker does an awesome live show. Parker McCollum dot com.
We're gonna come back with Parker in a second. New
tour dates are up all the way through. I mean
it's like two pages of dates. Dan't you're gonna be
(29:38):
so rich in its tours over all the way you're band,
my band? Oh, rating idiots, badass? Thank you very much. Sorry,
if that's all right. I appreciate that. Really cool. And
I listened. I was on the plane when they sent
me the um the edit for the TV show The
show Yeah, and I was like, that's all you brown away, dude,
it's it's I had, you know, I had my drummer
(29:59):
after sound check. I had my drummer come to the show.
I said, you need to come and see this boy
hit the cans. Oh. I thought it was because he's like,
you need to jump in real quick, because the god.
I was like, you need to come appreciate the really,
you know, we're as dumb as we are. And Eddie
and I are. Our band is awesome. That's what I
always say. I say, I'm the least talented person on
our stage. By for I didn't say that though, and
you said, I meant, did you see what's happening? I say, okay, Hi,
(30:23):
are you on the Bobby Bones Show? Now? Can you
fix stuff? Sometimes? You know, sometimes I'm like I'll take
it on. I'm like, all right, I'm gonna fix this.
But most of the time, I'm like, I just don't
even want to deal with it. And you're gone so much,
I assume when you get home you don't want to
have to fix the dryer. No, there's it's there's like
(30:45):
a there's a fine line, you know, like the doorknob
or you know, some stuff like that. I can be
pretty handy, but once it gets into the electrical stuff,
I'm like, like, my my father in law is really
good with electricity, thank god, and he does all that
for me, you know the art ever, uh No, I
just I'm about to buy waltmore about this new house
and it's got a huge yard and um and I
(31:05):
was like, I'm gonna buy holl He was like, You're
never gonna be home to mout I'm like, I know,
but when I am, I want to so you like going.
I just I don't like anything working outside. Yeah, I
mean I like the internet. You don't like the sweat,
not anymore that swept working out. But I'm good. I
don't need I used when the money's good. But I
did maintenance on a golf course forever mode all yards, forever.
I'm all good. You spent like three hours cleaning up
(31:29):
your backyard because there was a storm. You had to
do it, bad storm, and you had to get some
satisfaction from that. I just sent the picture to my wife,
being like, literally, that's all I cared about, was I
wanted to get it done because it was a disaster.
Because but I sent the before I said, oh man,
look at this. It's a mess over here. And then
she went, dang, that is terrible, and I went, but
here's what I just did, and I send it after
so smart like part two. Yeah, And then she was
(31:51):
she thought I was so sexy, do you? And she
didn't agree. I wouldn't disagree. She didn't think that at all.
I wouldn't disagree with her. I saw you given a
tour of your bus on Instagram. Got a new bus
I did. That's exciting. It's very exciting. So but you designed,
how do you design a bus? What are you designing? Exactly?
I mean when I say I designed that, I took
a bunch of screenshots at some other buses and I said,
I want to do this, this, this and this. Um.
(32:13):
That's kind of when I started building. I just once
I had my own, I'm like, right now, I know
how I want to do it. So when you buy
a bus, do you just you like, go to the
bus lot? I did not part bush. Oh okay, well
you designed a bus, you didn't buy the other Lets
two build it, dang, I need to do that, just
like one trip. I'll design it, go one one trip.
I'm good. You could. It's there, it's it's it's expensive though, dude.
But my my thing is always you know, that's where
(32:34):
I spend so much of my time. It's my home
on the road. So if you're gonna put money anywhere,
you want to put it to where you're comfortable and
and it's it's nice. Dude. I'm very I have not
regretted at one time. Is it true? And I think
this is probably true that it just shows what kind
of guy you are that you turned down your dad's
offer to buy you a bus early on in your career.
Why did you turn that down? Uh? Man, I feel
(32:55):
like I was pretty aware when I was a kid
of especially kind of the Texas music scene and the
guys I like grew up really idolizing and you know,
the whole mantra, their their whole reputation. It goes all
the way up to Willie Is road Warriors and doing
it the hard way and paying your dues and earning
it and uh, that was I really paid a lot
of attention to that when I was a really little kid.
And um so when I really kind of started touring
(33:17):
and trying to do it for a living. You know,
my dad's just a business man. He's not in the
music business, you in the car business, but he's numbers guy,
you know. And he was like, man, I'm by any
ears by a bus all and I'm like, I was like,
it's never gonna work like this. I'll always be looked
at as you know, the kid whose dad bought him
a music career. That was like really heavy on my mind.
(33:37):
I was like, I want to go out and I'm
gonna do it the hard way and if you're good enough,
you know you can make it. So you had to
cancel a couple of shows back in February because you
were sick. Your voice was shot, which happens. How sick
and how far did you have to get until you
were like, oh, I have to because I know you
don't want to cancel anything for any reason. Whatso well,
you know, people forget it. It's like, you know, you
(33:58):
lose a lot of your paying a lot of people
to be there. You're gonna lose a lot of money
canceling a show, like you only do it if you
if you're you know, I've done it before. I'm like,
all right, I'm just gonna play this show and go
out there. And it is garbage and these people paid
their hard earned money to come see you and they're
not getting what they paid for. Um. But I was
actually feeling a little better when we canceled that show.
(34:19):
But I had gone out and sang three nights in
a row, dog sick, like nasty sick, I mean, yacking
up stuff on the stage and not good. And so
by the fourth day I was like okay, like I'm
this is this is too much, And so we just
went back and made it up those epics good show,
and I saw that to reminded me of it. But
that's a great point that you brought up, is that
(34:40):
it does cost you money to cancel a show. It's
not yet like you're like, oh I don't feel like working,
I'm gonna cancel it. And everything's the same. No, everybody
brought on the road, the whole crew, all the forty
crew and buses and eighteen wheelers and everything. We're there
ready to roll. They're loading in and I'm like, I
can't go and there's no way I can go tonight.
You ever run what I'll do? Sometimes? Run do that
like a minute clinic and get a steroid shot. I
(35:00):
lived on steroid pills last year, it says, but then
I feel terrible, like two days later, played good golf
though you do you ever hit a golf ball on
Pregna Zone? No, what does that do? Because I'll start, Yeah,
I don't know, but you swing a lot harder than ball,
and you I've played the best golfer played my life
is after like being singing on steroid pills. Wow, he's
really selling that. Yeah, I like it. Pregna Zone. Your
(35:22):
album comes out in May. What's like, why should we
be excited? Dude? I don't know, Bobby. I'm so weird
about putting records out. I get real beside myself. Every
record I've put out, I always leave the studio film
like I missed big time. And all three of them
have done, you know, considerably well for me, even though
I felt that way every time, and hopefully this way
(35:42):
will be the same time, same way. But I don't know.
It's a lot, dude. His songwriting for me is such
a um you know it kind of it's it's a
hard on my mind um writing songs and the places
that I try to go to to write songs and
where I write them from. You know, it's not just
you know, kind of easy stuff. So you ever film
(36:03):
too vulnerable? Like I put too much out? Now, there's
a there's a song on this record. It's a piano ballad,
and I'm like, I don't think I'll ever get more
vulnerable than that song. But what's that one called? Just
so I can get it hard again? Okay? Remember that
from when he comes back next month, have your heart again.
We're gonna make him cry. Yeah, We're gonna bring a
piano in I'm to play it and he's gonna cry.
You're gonna hear it. It's got a big falsetto and
really you go high? Have you hot again? It's pretty close.
(36:27):
He seems like you've heard it before. Come on, all right,
So album comes out May twelfth. We'll talk to you
when the record comes out. But let's talk about the
tour real quick, because you put up a bunch of
bunch of new shows. How long is your set full,
Parker ninety minutes? What's your first song on the set list?
To be loved by you? Oh, you come out with
a hit? Get tickets to the show. A bunch of
(36:47):
new dates at at Parker McCollum dot com. A lot
of great openers. Corey Kent, who's awesome, Katie Offerman, love her,
Larry Fleet, I mean, Randy Rogers band. Some it's just
a Larry Allen's opening for us in Dallas. Really as
gotta be super cool for you. I've never met him.
I can't wait to meet him. I'm very excited. Doesn't
he have like a whale penis or something in his house?
What is it? Morgan? Yes? Who has not his It's
(37:10):
oh yeah, it's his collection he likes to keep him
and the reason he does is because he says if
anybody ever robs him, he wants to grab that and
that he wants that to be the story that he
hit him with a whale penis what ask him about that? Parker,
I've been I've been on the show a few times now,
and that's the best moment that I've had on this show.
There it is Parker McCallum taking to Parker McCollum dot com.
(37:31):
Handle on you crushing a gonna be at number one.
And that's it for today, Parker. Good to see you, buddy.
Thank you everybody. Yo wild it's this race stuff from Minnesota.
I have a TV recommendation that you all need to
watch asap. It's Jury Duty on Amazon Prime Slash Freezy.
It is so good. It films like the Office following
(37:55):
a jury to a case, but the case and jury
are all actors except for one jury who really thinks
she's not very tooty. And I mean I have not
laughed as hard and forever. It just came out on Friday,
I think, and everyone needs to go watching. My wife
was telling me about this show. I haven't watched it,
but it's just we have to watch the show because
only one person isn't in on it. And so I
(38:19):
was looking at the rotten tomatoes and the audience scores
a ninety eight percent, which is SuperH the reviewer scores
thirty eight. They're all funny things. I'm stupid, idiot, Yeah,
Jerry Duty, Okay, I appreciate that that's the second person
that's recommended that to me, So I'll be sure to
check it out your Amy's pile of stories. The story
(38:42):
is for Eddie. If you struggle with road rage, well
put peppermint oil in your car, or peppermint air freshener,
or eat a peppermint patty while you drive, or go
to therapy. We'll hold on back to the peppermint. So
this is like a smell. It's gonna supposed to make
me calm when people drive like fools on the road.
A new st you found that the scent of peppermint
can reduce aggressive driving behaviors, so road rage may be
(39:05):
relieved to be fair, You're not what. We all drive
like idiots. Sometimes we don't even know we're driving like idiots.
Remember when you didn't have a blink of those working
you're just cutting people off like crazy. Yeah, they could
have thought you were being an idiot and a bad driver,
but it wasn't. There was a mishap with your car.
So we all, I'm Sona say it again, we all
(39:26):
make not the best to decisions while driving, some of
us more than others, Amy, but the rest of us
we still do mess up. You pull in the middle
sometimes people can't get through and you're like, oh so sorry.
Then you don't look up. You just look at you're
staring well, and we all mess up. So if somebody
cuts you off, just think, oh, that's accidentally been me
before too, and I didn't even realize it. Okay. Also,
(39:46):
peppermints and peppermints. We need to buy Eddie some peppermint oil. Okay, Bobby,
I have small gestures that are earned you bonus points
with your wife. Small gestures go ahead. This is from
ask miss if I do them? Go ahead? Okay, Hello
and goodbye kisses. Yeah, but I leave warily and she
doesn't like it when I wake her up with a kiss.
(40:08):
She doesn't like anti sleeping beauty because that's where you know,
did they wake sleeping beauty up with the kiss? Yeah?
She doesn't like sleeping beauty then remember that movie? Yeah
me either, Okay, cuddles, Yeah, we cuddles, fine, she cuddles
me mostly. I'm a little spoon basically every night. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Little things like you know, putting a little note on
like the mirror for her or on her computer that
(40:30):
she'll find. Oh, do that one like on a post it?
Do you ever do that? Yeah? I wrote notes, but
I think if we write notes, and sometimes I'll send
her an email at four o'clock in the morning. No, no,
it is because it's like a nice email. It's not
like hey, I need you to pay this bill. It's like, hey,
I really enjoyed this. You're really nice. Interesting. The little
thing could be yes, slipping something into her bags so
she sees it when she gets to work, and it
(40:51):
makes you think about how any problem is she lost?
One that I wrote her a long time, Yes, that
you told that story at your wedding. That was like,
you're what is that your speech? Part of it? I
wrote her one was like, when's she ever gonna say
she saw this real note? Then it's never in her bag.
Turns out it had fallen out and I found it
way later. Saying yeah, chores, you could do chores. Yeah
(41:12):
you did. You cleaned up after the storm. That's true.
That's kind. That's that one show appreciation. I do a
lot of dogs stuff. Oh yeah, I try to be
better than that. Yeah, okay, affection for no reason. Yeah,
letting her sleep yeah, well sometimes and then um leading
her through a crowd, like if you're at a busy place,
like you being like I got this, babe. She leads
(41:33):
me to a lot of crowds. She's like, yeah, I
got this. Then hold on, yeah, thank you. Tricia Yearwood
had to put out a warning to her fans yet again,
she is not endorsing any sort of Keto Gummies, but
there are some ads out there that are like so
legit that she had to put out this full blown
statement that she has never been a part of, endorsed
(41:54):
or anything for these Keto gummies. It's a weight loss scam.
Don't fall for it. Why did they say she is?
Are they using her pick? Sure? Is it a fake? Yeah,
they're exploiting her name, her face, her voice, overall likeness
without permission, Like it's a really big how do you
do that? Like, yeah, you're gonna get I guess you
can do it until they sue you, cease and assist. Wow,
(42:16):
there's fake Facebook. Maybe people are called never endorsed a
single thing in my life. All of a sudden, every
time I turned the radio on, its me be like, hey,
are you here for? That's really you? Yeah, that's really mean.
Is that file? That was Amy's pile of stories? It's
time for the good news unbox. There's this fifty two
(42:40):
year old nerd and Phoenix, Arizona nerd. Are you saying
that it's just some sort of lunch box? Yeah? This
is okay my editorial. I'm adding my own commentary to
the story. Hey, he is out playing Pokemon Go. That's
why he's a nerd. He's fifty two years old and
who knew pokemon Go was still a thing but you didn't. Yeah,
you know why, because I'm cool. I'm hill anyway, that
(43:01):
says they're hi, not hit. I'm the in crowd. Go ahead,
this is the outcrowd. So he's out doing Pokemon Go
and he comes across a fifteen foot long spoon that
had been stolen from the local dairy queen. This wasn't
the news because they couldn't find the spoon. You have
three dudes on a motorcycle took the spoon and ditched
it behind the middle school. And this guy's out paying Pokemon.
I don't know where you're trying to get a go
(43:22):
get what are they called? And what's his name? Pikachu?
That's his name, a Pikachu. And he finds a spoon
and he's able to return it to the people at
the dairy Queen, and it was gonna cost him seven
thousand dollars to replaces. They said, Hey, as a reward,
we're gonna give you every single blizzard that's on the menu.
You can come by once a day and get a blizzard. Hey,
(43:42):
oh cool for the summer, for all those summer flavors.
He can try all of them. But I was like, oh,
if it's gonna cost him seven thousand dollars to replace it,
him some thousand dollars, no, or they just got out
of new in them at that logic, okay, and then
give him thirty five hundred they're giving him. He wasn't
doing it for a prize. I know he was trying
to find a Pikachu. And you know you wouldn't stood
(44:04):
in line to meet a teen mom in the book signing.
But I'm not fifty two years old. Basically, you look
at cool got him, you know, he looked at but okay,
good for him. He turned it in as he got free.
DQ what do they want to what's that big spoon for?
Like they yes, oh dry queen still but I know
the d Houston name. So yeah, he returned the spoone.
(44:25):
But I just remember being in the news like three
days looking for the spoon. Yeah, they even made shirts
of the restaurant. They were handing him out, where's my spoon?
Hu funny. Well they got it. I got it. There
you go, Yes, anything else, it's good. I don't feel
like you came into this negatively. I had no idea
if he found the Pikachu or not. But he got
the spoon back and he said, I don't even want
the blizzards. Okay, there you have him. Good for him.
(44:47):
That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good.
Welcome to Tuesdays show Morning Studio Morning. Let's go around
the room. He's officially done with the twenty five Whistles
(00:20):
and the Sore Loser's podcast. So now when it's time
to leave work, he won't always be the last. Yeah,
I'll be the first. Here he is, Guys, I think
I'm done with this Mexican tradition. I've been doing my
entire life, and it's hitting a pinata. So like come Easter,
birthday parties, ever since I was a little kid, I
(00:41):
was gonna ask that I've I've hit piatas, but yeah,
what when do you traditionally hit them? All? Celebration? He celebration,
any celebration where you can find an excuse to buy
a pinata and hit it. You do it, and you
fill it up with candy, and all the kids either
blindfold them or whatever. They get a broomstick and hit
the crap out of the piniatautil the candy falls out,
(01:02):
and I'm like, I love this. And then like over
the weekend Easter comes, I buy a piniat that's a
cute little bunny, fill it up with candies, and then
I watched my kids just beat the crap out of it,
arm falls off, leg falls off, the bunny's headless, and
they're just loving, like killing this bunny. And I'm like,
is this really a good tradition? I may stop doing
(01:22):
it because I the feeling I had while it was happening.
I'm like, this is not good. What if it wasn't
a bunny. What if it was like a pinata. I
don't know, Sam, who's saying, Oh now, I'm a change
it up. If it was something you hated, or like
a Philadelphia Eagle since you're Dallas cowboy faces the super
Bowl trophies, since your Cowboys fan. Yes, okay, well he
wants that though. He just takes that and puts it
(01:43):
on the shelf. So I would just say, I don't
think you should kill the tradition. I think you should
put things up there. You don't mind killing, okay, because
piniatas are fun. I think on my birthday party a
couple of years ago, there was a piniata that was
made for me. Didn't you kill it? I missed? They
kept pulling it up. Yeah, that's the best part. Don't
(02:04):
kill it yet. I say, fine, pinatas that you hate, okay,
or make your own find some bad people and a
lunchbox head. Oh yeah, yeah, all right, moving on. He
made us guests the celebrity he saw in the wild,
which is okay until we found out it was the
guy sitting next to him every single day that was
the celebrity. Might yeah, yeah, here he is lunchbox everybody.
Oh boy, So last week I came to you and
(02:25):
said that the Ultima, the five Ultima baby in a movie.
Someone hit me on Instagram there'll be filming a movie
in their neighborhood and they were looking for two thousand vehicles.
You're two thousand that area to park on the street
for a scene. So I texted the director. I said, hey, man,
I got to know five Ultima. Would you like it
in the movie? And he was like, that would be great.
Send us some pictures of the Ultima. Send him a
(02:46):
picture And I waited, and I waited. Thirty two hours later,
got a text back said, oh, we got all the
cars we need. Thanks. Do you think it's because your
car so beat up? I just think I waited too long.
Maybe No, I think your right bones like they need
a car that looks new, yes, not old in the
(03:08):
two thousand, Yes, that's what I think too. I saw
a picture of it. It's all rusty. What are you
gonna get a new car? Oh? Let me see, not
anytime soon. I mean it's still running. Yeah, no, I
get it got gas in it. If it's running, and
it's still feels safe to drive with the kids in it?
Does it sometimes? Yeah? See sometimes I started up and
I feel like it shakes a little bit, but I
(03:30):
can respect it. But there comes a time when it's
time to kind of just move on. Yeah. My kids
do always say that your car's really dirty. Well that's
not that's just you being disgustingly. Yeah. Yeah, but the
car does struggle, right sometimes? How many miles to have
on it? Two hundred and fourteen thousand and three hundred
(03:51):
twenty something like that. Wow. And so do you ever
drive your kids more than fifteen minutes in it? Yeah,
like on the highway. Well yeah, I'm a high When
do you feel completely safe about that? Yeah? Okay, Well
then there you go, as long as you feel safe
with them. Any I wonder how my wife feels. I
don't know if she feels safe with the kids in
the car and she just don't feels safe when you
drive away in it. And I'm not even in it.
(04:12):
I'm just like, oh, I didn't get end well for him.
I'm gonna ask my wife if she feels comfortable with
me taking the kids. And because she always like, oh,
you can take my car, that's probably why I'm moving on.
She does the morning Corny and the pie a, don't
She always tries to make a smile here. She has
amy everybody. So I was driving in my car with
my son. I was taking him to jiu jitsu, and
all the sudden, out of nowhere, a warning light comes
(04:32):
on and it's red. I get warning lights, you know,
I've got them before, but they're yellow, so I feel
like those you can just ignore, but when it's red
you have to pay attention. And yellow means keep going
but with cautious yeah. And it says on the screen
or like don't drive over thirty miles per hour. And
I'm like, really, I mean, why what's the light look like?
(04:53):
It says it's not a tire light. It was like
the little warning triangle thing red, and then it was
telling me don't drive over thirty. That's what it was. Tough.
I've never seen that one, you never in my life.
I didn't even know my car had whatever was happening,
and I thought, well, I mean, surely I can go
a little bit over thirty if I hear surely. Well.
I wasn't trying to go fifty or anything, but I thought, well,
(05:15):
if I go thirty one, we'll see what happens. And
it starts beeping at me. My son starts freaking out
because he's like mom. So then I try to stay
at like twenty five and I'm taking him and I
drop him off at jiu jitsu, and then I immediately
just go to the dealership driving twenty five and it's
not that far, so that's good, and I roll up.
I don't have an appointment or anything. I just go
(05:36):
in and explain the situation. They still don't know what
it is. I have a loaner. I have no idea
what's going on, Smoke coming out from under the hood
or anything. Right, No, But I mean I'm waiting to
get the call. We'll see what's hat. I hope that
it's just like a programming thing. What are you going
to get a new car? Amy? I mean that is
not safe. I mean you want to borrow? Come on,
that can be a computer issue. I am hoping that's
(05:58):
what it is, because I don't want it to be.
I don't know. This seems like it could be a
big deal. I've never heard of don't drive over thirty
well speed, don't go under a forty or whatever the
bustle explodes movie Keiana read, oh the movie where if
you go and maybe a sixty you go under sixty
that everything explodes. But other than that, haven't heard of
your version of it called slow Yeah, And it's a
beep beep, beep beep, and so they're trying to figure
(06:20):
it out, but shout out thankfully the people are working
their were listeners because they helped me out that muscle.
I didn't. I didn't. I didn't. I didn't say anything.
They said, do we listen to the show? She's going
full lunchbox on us? WHOA, I did not say a
thing you support that I supported. Listen, Amy, when you
(06:43):
gotta get suff done, drop names, saying, hey, throw your
arms up, make a scene. Let him know who you are.
I didn't wear a name tag. Good for you, Amy,
God you reflects on the show. I didn't. All right,
Ray go ahead from Mountain Pine, Arkansas. He drives slow
like an eighty year old and all other areas of
his life. He's pretty bold, Bobby, thank you. I want
to tell you guys that I'm on this. I mentioned it,
(07:05):
but I'm on this anti parasite cleanse now. And so
I take a dropper of whatever, and I take two
pills three times a day, fifteen days, and I'm trying
to cleanse myself of these parasites that I have declared
I have inside of me. I think that could have
been the issue with what. But I'm just gonna say this.
Make sure day one and day two that you do this.
If you decide to do as I'm doing, you're not
(07:26):
at work or anywhehy Oh no, you get it, Eddie,
you open the pipes up. Oh, just like it's been trial.
It's been hard. It's been hard. You know it's been hard.
So have you passed me? I don't know. My wife's
that same thing to be passed anything. I'm like, I
mu supposed to know. Do you check the toilet? No,
it's no, no, No, I can't run from it fast enough.
(07:47):
I'm out of there. Oh, I hit it and just go.
I'm just gonna let let it be okay. As a
wise man once said, let it be, let it be,
and hopefully it's just gonna have happened. But I'm doing
it right now. But I don't know how he's supposed
to know. Well, if you're not, that's too early in
the morning for that crap. Literally, And I'm not. I'm not.
(08:08):
I'm just taking it. I don't even know that I
have one. But it also says you can do it.
This is the eighty percent of humans have parasites in
that that which is crazy. That's right. So I'm in
the middle of that. I'm feeling pretty good today. Are
you taking Harris smart? Yeah? Okay, what's the dealt with
parasites before? Like long long time ago? That's good? And no,
you didn't get it for me this, yeah, look at this,
(08:32):
No worry. Somehow I got it from lunchbox. I don't
know how. There we go, Here we go, all right,
let's go. We're here today, we're starting the show. We're
glad you're here. It said this time. Every morning we
hear from you. We answer questions because you send them
to our mail bag. You get something we call maget
(08:54):
he Hello, Bobby Bones. My husband is currently out of
town on two week work trip and enjoying having the
house to himself with just me and the dog, until
last night when our dog wandered into his man cave.
He has one rule, our dog is never allowed in
the man cave. Well, our dog helped himself to a
baseball autographed by Nolan Ryan. His daddy got a sign
(09:16):
for him when he worked for the Texas Rangers in
the early nineties, so he's had it forever. I can
get one on eBay from under one hundred bucks, except
it's not personalized. The options are, should I own up
to it, just tell him the dog chewed it up?
Or should I buy an old baseball with Nolan Ryan's
autograph and forge the personalization myself. Oh no, I have
(09:37):
a little time before he gets back. Signed wife who
dropped the ball? Huh? Now you want to know what
you should do? It? What I would do, because I
would be honest, they ain't the same thing. I don't
think the ink has to be the same color too, though,
like you have to remember and maybe you can still
see it on what the dog ate, but he gonna
(10:00):
be upset. Oh man, I probably get that ball if
it's the same inc like, same size, and just write
the name on it, and you would forge this the
autograph I know, not don't even for geotograph. I would
forge being whatever it was. If I can see it,
I can do it. He's never gonna know when when
(10:21):
you get something monograph, but you don't have tons of
to apotograph and never go look at it again. No, no,
but he's had this since he was a kid, I know,
and he probably looked at this thing thousands of times,
like how cool is this ball? I'm telling you, but
he never walks up and just like it examines it.
I bet it's cool and he has it there, but
I never You shouldn't do what I'm saying, I said,
he said, do you want to know what I would do?
What I would say. What you should do is own
(10:41):
up to it immediately and just take your lumpings and
that's the end. Maybe you could put the chewed up
ball in a little case and you know, it's another
season of our life. But yeah, he's probably gonna be upset.
Or what you can do is you can wait to
tell him when he's in a really good mood about
something else. Oh yeah, did that? Wait and squash the
(11:02):
good mood? No, not squash a good mood, but limit
limit how much bad mood you get. I don't like
that at all, because he's finally he's maybe he's happy
about something, and then you're like coming in with yeah,
then you don't feel the rat Here's another thing too,
like you know, I don't look at my autograph stuff
very often. It could be in five years when he
realizes it's true to absolutely and then you're just like
(11:23):
long and divorced. I mean, yes, that's right, or that
like I don't know what happened. That's weird. So you
can get an autograph Nolan Ryan for ninety nine bucks
for the forty six bucks with thirty nine bucks for
a hundred and two bucks. So your options are there.
You just have to kind of match what the other
one was. If hey, you wrote years on it, okay, yeah, okay.
Could she order a bunch of balls and put them
(11:45):
in like have a ton? And when she goes to
tell him, she's gonna be like, I have something I
have to tell you, and it's horrible. The dog at
your Nolan Ryan. But look I bought you five. But
I think this one's probably about yeah, yeah, the connection
you keep that one, guys. I stand this but it's like, hey,
now you have the chewed up signed a ball and
five extra balls. If he already doesn't like the dog too,
(12:08):
that's an extra wrinkle. Maybe he loves the dog, but
I think you protect the dog and then you get
a fake one for the dog, for the dogs a
life and honor. But that's also on you if you
let the dog in there. I guess once you do,
tell him maybe send the dog to a friend's house
for a few days, oh until the dog dies of
natural causes way down the line, and tell him then
(12:31):
you want to hear something funny. You want to go
look at your ball? Okay, what should she do? What
should she do? Not? What did I say? What should
she do? Amy? What I said? Go buy it as
many balls as you can. It's expensive, Okay, as you can,
so maybe it's the forty four dollar one or whatever
you said, and then present him with a lot of
balls and tell him, I don't know. You still have
(12:53):
to be honest out of the gate. Why not, And
don't don't do it on a day that he's really
happy about something. I would do it then, because he's
not going to be Nay. I thought you should reach
out to Nolan Ryan on social media and see if
he could personalize the ball to your husband, explain what happened.
The only problem is Nolan Ryanan got social media, so
you're just gonna have to tell him express jerky, just
gonna have to tell him and say, look, I'm a
(13:14):
bad wife, Eddie. Nothing. Just put the ball where it
was and just pray to God that he never sees it.
Enough time passes. It could be a kid's fault and
they never admitted exactly that's weird. Let me you can
even play with let's weird. I don't know what that is.
What evan dog was this? I don't want the dog
in here, That's what I'm saying. I you should just
(13:35):
tell him, get it over with, rip the band aid off.
But I would get a fake one and write the
name on it. And if your goldfish died and I
was watching, I could find the same one. I put
the goal, I replaced the goldfish. You better dang believe it,
because I want you to feel the best. Saying about me,
it's about you. I want you to feel it best.
It's that memory with your dad. We can't replace that memory,
but we can make sure you still feel great. About it,
about the ball that you got kinda not really but
(13:57):
still there. I want to be sad about it. Tell
them the truth. All right, that's the email, that's the
mail bag, close it up. We got your And I
was about the clothes. Big. I always know when two
different people in the show send me an idea. So
I'm gonna talk about it. But they have two different
(14:17):
versions of what happened. It's gonna be so good for
the year. And so it's Lunchboxing Morgan number two and
they both said, Hey, I want to talk about something
that happened up here at the building yesterday. And so
I'm gonna let Lunchbox go first, Yes, thank you, and
then I'm gonna go to Morgan and let her tell
her side of the story. So what happened. So they
had a Duncan truck out front where they were giving
away free coffee, and I thought donuts. So I was like, awesome,
(14:39):
So I'd go out there to get some free donuts.
I'm excited and they go, oh, no, we only have coffee,
but we do have gift cards. And I said, oh
that's great because I have a family and I have kids,
and they would they love donuts. So I'd love to
get some gift cards. You talk to them like that,
so nice and respectfully, and I'm like, I used to
slang donuts for a living. I used to work at
Duncan Donuts. Don't you worry about it? Ye, gift card
(15:00):
be great? And they go, we we only have two left.
And I said, oh, that's perfect, you know what I mean.
And Morgan goes, no, no, no, I need one. I
need one. She came in and snaps one real quick,
go ahead, like, what are you doing. You don't even
have kids, your kids. You're not taking your kids to
get donuts. Isn't like a big day for them? Instead?
So you took two and she got none. No, I
(15:21):
got one. She got one because but your idea was
you wanted to and she got none. Yeah, because she
doesn't have kids to take the donut day and so
only people with kids you get a gift card. The
whole point was I was gonna take my kids the Duncan.
But that's your point. Yeah, But she she was the
she heard, oh, there's only two left and reached in
and grabbed as I was about to get too, So
(15:41):
she why would you get two though? For my kids? No?
I know, but why would they give anybody too? Because
I told him I want to bring my two kids.
Well I have three, but the younger one doesn't understand
what like that way they can each give the gift
card when they're paying for their donut makes them feel special.
Teaches them about how paying at the register when I
get them like a five dollar bills, because I one
has a gift card and one has a five dollar bill,
(16:02):
you could do five dollar bill. No no, no, no,
you're upset because because she just inserted herself in there,
like she was, oh, give me that gift card. She
don't even need one. Okay, now more rude your side. Yeah,
So Lunchbox and I walked out there together to the
food truck, and we walked up at the same time,
and I was very kind, and I was willing to
try the coffee. I don't even drink coffee, but I
(16:23):
was like, hey, you guys are here, and I'm grabbing one,
and the girl goes, hey, I have a gift card
for each of you guys, hands them directly to both
of us, and Lunchbox tries to snatch the one out
of her hand that she's giving to me and says,
you don't deserve one, you don't have kids. A different story,
So only people with kids deserve a gift card for
free donuts. Apparently he kept repeating it, and he would try.
(16:45):
I was just standing there trying to talk to the girl,
and he kept coming up to me and like trying
to grab it out of my hand like we were
playing a game. Was he serious? I don't know, I assume. So, okay,
everybody that's not Morgan a lunchbox your final thoughts? Who
wins the big debate here? And Morgan? Why? I mean,
what do I even have to say? Oh? Are you
(17:06):
not going with me? For his own sake? Go ahead, Okay,
I would just say that Morgan was present. She's the
one there, She's just like you. She was handed the
gift card for the people that are physically there, and
just because Morgan doesn't have kids doesn't mean she doesn't
get a gift card. Also, what if somebody else would
have been there at the exact same time and they
didn't have kids, You didn't know them, You would have
done that to them, right, You only did it to
her because you know her. I would have tried to
(17:27):
take two. But if they were like, no, that's for her.
You would have been like, well, I got kids, random person.
You don't know that. I do know that, Eddie. Look,
I have four kids, right, so I side with Morgan.
That's so dumb. Like there were two gift cards, one
for each of you. That's how it works. Yeah, and
you don't get more just because you have kids. I disagree.
You get more back on your taxes, but not donuts.
(17:50):
You don't get more doughnuts because you have kids. For
that reason. If it were show us pictures of your
kids day and we'll give you a gift cards more,
I would have gotten different exactly. And also I tried
to let her know, you know that I used to
slaying for Duncan, don't us so like I used to
work there. So it's more like I got loyalty. Morgan
just just a you know, a feather in the wind.
She doesn't care, She'll go I stay local. But their
point is, and I'm like, you said that they don't
(18:11):
need your business because you're staying local and loyal, and
she she's a feather in the wind. Maybe that gets
her there. I don't know, Morgan, you're completely the right.
Do you have your card? I do have it? How
much was the card ward? I think it's like five dollars.
See what, why do you just y'all see, she stole
five dollars from me. She didn't steal it from you. Also,
you said you get money back on your taxes. That
means you have more money than I do as a
(18:31):
single person. So take it and buy donuts with it.
And you don't get more just because you have kids.
As far as like gift cards, Okay, I disagree, but
I tried, and she stole it. And I mean the
lady had two in her hand and I was reaching
for him, and here, don't matter, here comes this little
little grabby hands. I did not grab it. Oh you did.
Why do you have grabby hands? What is that exactly?
(18:52):
Grab it out of that lady's hands? Grabby hands? All right,
I've done a bit, Morgan. You win, though they it's
done for the good news. Melissa Morris lives in Wynn, Arkansas,
and a couple of weeks ago those tornadoes ripped through
her town. It was coming through. She heard the sirens,
(19:14):
so she went into her bathroom hid and she was okay,
But when she got out, her house was destroyed. She
had lost a shed, and in that shed was a
bunch of her old memory, a bunch of pictures that
she lost. She was like, I'm never gonna find these. Well,
one hundred and fifty miles away. John ellis who lives
in Bradford, Tennessee, walking around his yard one hundred and
fifty miles away and he sees a picture. He's like,
(19:35):
this is interesting, so he puts it on social Media's
like does anyone know who this is? And somehow it
got back to Melissa. It was Melissa's daughter's basketball picture
from high school. I don't know how many years ago,
but it had the high school name on the jersey,
so it connected her and Melissa got her picture back.
So this is crazy. So I mean, if anyone else
sees pictures out there, send them my way. Do you know?
(19:56):
Melissa said, I can't believe the picture will blow a
hundred fifty mile. I'm from a tornado. That's unbelievable. Are
you sure you didn't like land in a car and
then the car drive possibly like the forest guns. That's crazy.
I mean, I get tornadoes and how big they are
and how strong, but a picture that far also again
not add But if you have old pictures, you should
(20:18):
get Legacy box and save them all, make them digital. Yeah.
I don't even know what the code is. What's the code?
It's the bones. Yeah, you got a Legacy box dot
com put in the code bones and any old pictures
that you have, just pictures on paper in general, you
send them in and they'll make it digital, even old videos.
So something like this happens. We probably got us have
a tornado, right, but one hundred miles I'm blown away
by that me too, Man. I saw a number of
(20:38):
double checked it and like that's just one picture. It
was one picture that he found. But I mean she's
got a lot of pictures out there. So so you
were in one hundred forty mile radius be looking for
pictures and families. That's all right, all right, there you go.
That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good.
So Bobby Bones Show interviews In case you didn't know,
Parker McCollum walking in studio right now, here are three
(20:59):
number one he has as at this moment pretty hard.
What does that say to be loved by you? This one?
Well it's about to be at number one. Here is
handle on. You's got a new album coming out May twelfth,
called Never Enough. Born in Conro, Texas, worked on his
(21:22):
grandparents ranch, you know, spend a lot of time in Austin, Texas.
Is you know total Texas country dude who is living
in Nashville. Now he's obsessed with shoes and he's a
good dude here he is. Now, come on it man
on the Bobby Bones Show. Now, everybody good to see you.
It's good to see. Do you have any lyrics? People
mess up all the time. Um, I have something that
(21:43):
I mess up all the time. I asked that because
I don't know. I don't know why we're singing. Ed
when McCain, when you walked in, you know it will
be your crying. Showed that song right there, and there's
a lyrics that goes, I'll be love suicide. The namy goes, well,
I thought it. I've always said, like your love Superstar.
(22:06):
I can see that. I feel like that's common with
hit songs because I do that songs I grew up
listening to or whatever, and like years later I'll find out.
I'm like, yeah, that's what it's always saying. Yeah, she
just found but I'm being told that's kids bops version amy,
do you listen to kids? Do you have any lyrics
so that you hear people sing back at all? That
you're like, man, that that is not right at how
(22:26):
that lyrics because if you have none, that means you
nunciate perfectly and it all makes sense. I do not.
I'm actually the band calls me the king of the
gibberish on stage because I'll go, I'll do, I'll sing
a whole verse and never say a word of English.
But I just you know, it's a melody, but Samley,
Sammy until I get back to the chorus, because I
can't remember the words to my own song. That fatally
(22:48):
that As to where the audience thinks that you're actually
doing it or do they know you're doing gibberish, I
would say sonically, they can tell one hundred percent that
I'm not saying the right words because they know the
words of the songs. Yeah, but I'm I'm out there.
I sell it. I don't even skip a beat. Do
you do the thing where you stick the microphone out
there if you don't remember the word? Sometimes I have
before I do that on the show sometimes, but no
listeners will yell back because they can't so it just
(23:09):
makes it awkward when no one does it. They're letting
you do handle on. You's crushing it is doing good. Yeah, congratulations,
thank you. I did see you tweet something a couple
of weeks ago where You're like, you know, I never
wrote about beer maybe in a song. I've never said
the word beer in a song. Yeah, so what is
that about? I just purposeful as a kid, he said,
(23:30):
I'm never writing about beer, And then why did you change? No?
Maybe not intentional, but I just kind of dawned on me.
I was, you know, thinking about this record and can
it be successful in today's country music world? And you know,
what are so many songs about so many there are
so many common topics in country music. It kind of
gets repetitive, and so I've always tried to stay away
from that. And I was kind of wondering had I
(23:51):
done that on this record? And I thought I had,
And then I was like what. At the same time this,
I did say beer, and it's the first time I've
ever said that in a song. So what song was that?
On the new record? It's called Hurricane. I wrote it
with David Lee Murphy. It's the lead track on the record.
You're right there with Bandy Rodgers too, Randy Rodgers and
John Randall. But it was David Lee's song. He had
written the chorus We're just over at my house hanging out,
and he played it and I was like, dang, I
(24:14):
want to sing that. I like that a lot. Did
you consider not even putting the song on the record? Okay?
I like it. I think it's really cool. And I
like beer songs. I like drinking songs. I have a
lot of songs about drinking. I mean, I wrote a
song about whiskey. I never said the word whiskey, you know,
just seems generic at times, and I think, you know,
there's got to be a place for it, like certain
words that you know, kind of get overused, and um,
(24:37):
it's a I don't know, I have a beer song. Though.
Have you been to a concert lately at all? Last
show you've seen, last concert that I would have gone
for fun? Oh? Well that long, huh, because you're just
on the road so much. Probably John Mayer here in
Nashville last year Holly and I went. I went to
him here, who's a solo tour a couple of weeks ago. Yeah,
(25:00):
I know you're a big John Mayor fan as well.
But it's gotta be tough to go to a concert
when you're always out doing concerts, and then most concerts
are pretty much when you're gone anyway. Do you ever
do anything on the road though, if you're like on
Friday or Saturday, do you ever like purposefully if your
wife's out with you, like we're gonna spend the day
doing this because we don't do a lot of stuff.
Sometimes it's hard to have your wife on the road
(25:20):
with you because there's so much stuff I'm accustomed to
doing on the road, and I have such a routine
when I'm on tour, and she doesn't. You know, she's
not gonna work out in front of everybody in the
bus with the guys. She actually would, I guess, but
she doesn't on the road. Um, she doesn't go and
play I go play golf all the time. But like
we at the same time, we'll go to a baseball game,
you know, if we have a night show and there's
(25:41):
a day game, like in Saint Louis or something. We've
done that Bush Stadium. You don't get to go the
whole thing. You only go to a few innings. But
do you wear about getting tired, because that's always my
fear on the roads. I'm gonna get tired, then I'm
not gonna be able to nail it at night. Yeah,
I mean, you're you're one. You're so accustomed to just
kind of going all the time. It's kind of why
I have trouble sleeping when I can when I'm not
on the road, because I'm just so used to that schedule. Um,
(26:04):
but I don't think so. I mean, your body lets
you know when you're when you need some rest. My
body always screams rest, Like right now, I need rest.
I would love I go with three. You did this?
Why I just couldn't sleep. I went to the gym
at like four thirty. I didn't even know they opened
that early. You went to the gym at four thirty
in the morning. You don't try to like suffer it out,
like just be miserable and get another thirty minutes. No,
so I did. I went worked out and went home
(26:25):
and slept an hour and came here. What do you
do when you work out? What's your main thing? I
just right now, I'm just trying to gain a bunch
of weight and just lift and just see how strong
I can get and how big I can get. I've
kind of been muscle dude, I know was the first
thing I know. And I walked down Abay's been listening. Yeah,
just listen this a little something. You know? Well, you
bench press? I don't bench Yeah me either, Really, I
don't max anyway, it's bad for your shoulders. What do
(26:46):
you do squat? Uh? No, I've kind of got this
arthritis in my knee lately, I think from playing golf
maybe and having to have been doing legs a whole bunch.
I just started about a week ago, So I'll do
like real lightweight squats, but a lot of lunges, a
lot of machine legs. Um. How do you feel about
people shirtless in the gym? Uh? It means to be like,
I don't want to be at lifetime with this with
(27:07):
two shirt off. That's not the right vibe there. I
agree with that what I was saying. It is not
the right But there are gems, you know, like old
school just strictly iron gems, which I enjoy. We find
on the road pretty often. Ever, box I did a
little in high school. Um, you know, the workouts are incredible,
but I was I never had had no business trying
to beat somebody up. You're pretty big dude, though, I'll
(27:28):
tall you sixty three. How about your way to fourteen?
He's like, like a linebacker, But I've never I've been
one hundred and ninety three pounds for I mean twenty years.
Let me see you take your shirt off. I wish
I could keep a straight face and just do it,
just be like, yeah, man kidding. I kind of got
(27:51):
a little belly right now because I've been eating and
trying to bulk and get something, gain so much weight
that like, my pants are kind of tight. Hallie was like,
you have a belly? What what does she think about
your body? Does she like you muscular or thin? Or
because my wife, wherever I am, she wants me to
feel good, even if she knows I'm kind of gross.
She's like, I like it right now, even with your pooch.
And I'm like, that's not true. Well that's what she's
(28:12):
supposed to say too. Yes, Um, I don't know. I
think she it's not really. She doesn't really um say
anything about it. She just is like, you've gotten a
little chunky these. Um me, man, God, I'm telling you
what I walked in. I'm like, Bobby, how does that
make you feel? Why would you make that up? Because
he just follows along. Hey, oh well, well we're gonna
(28:32):
come back with parking in a second. We have some
real stuff to talk about. I do want to mention
the tour some additional dates this fall. So every time
I told you this, every time I look at your
pictures from on the road, I pinch and zoom in
and like every she's full, It's been good. It's it's uh,
my career is as good right now, is it as
it's ever been? And honestly, it's a lot bigger than
I ever really dreamed about when I was a kid.
(28:56):
Does make you feel good certainly? Or does it make
you feel anxious like there's a new pressure, a little
anxious at times you just want to deliver? And uh,
you know, your life changes, and you know, I mean
it used the older you get, right, the more responsibility
you have, and you still have a full career to run.
So um, that's kind of where some of the angst
comes from. But um, I don't know. I mean, you,
(29:17):
it's up to you. It's all mental, you know, if
you want to handle it and step up to the
plate and deliver the opportunities there because I didn't really
want to handle it. But now, well that's a motivation.
He's like, suck it up, loser, Okay, man, you got it. Uh,
Parker does an awesome live show. Parker McCollum dot com.
We're gonna come back with Parker in a second. New
tour dates are up all the way through. I mean
it's like two pages of dates. Dan't you're gonna be
(29:38):
so rich in its tours over all the way you're band,
my band? Oh, rating idiots, badass? Thank you very much. Sorry,
if that's all right. I appreciate that. Really cool. And
I listened. I was on the plane when they sent
me the um the edit for the TV show The
show Yeah, and I was like, that's all you brown away, dude,
it's it's I had, you know, I had my drummer
(29:59):
after sound check. I had my drummer come to the show.
I said, you need to come and see this boy
hit the cans. Oh. I thought it was because he's like,
you need to jump in real quick, because the god.
I was like, you need to come appreciate the really,
you know, we're as dumb as we are. And Eddie
and I are. Our band is awesome. That's what I
always say. I say, I'm the least talented person on
our stage. By for I didn't say that though, and
you said, I meant, did you see what's happening? I say, okay, Hi,
(30:23):
are you on the Bobby Bones Show? Now? Can you
fix stuff? Sometimes? You know, sometimes I'm like I'll take
it on. I'm like, all right, I'm gonna fix this.
But most of the time, I'm like, I just don't
even want to deal with it. And you're gone so much,
I assume when you get home you don't want to
have to fix the dryer. No, there's it's there's like
(30:45):
a there's a fine line, you know, like the doorknob
or you know, some stuff like that. I can be
pretty handy, but once it gets into the electrical stuff,
I'm like, like, my my father in law is really
good with electricity, thank god, and he does all that
for me, you know the art ever, uh No, I
just I'm about to buy waltmore about this new house
and it's got a huge yard and um and I
(31:05):
was like, I'm gonna buy holl He was like, You're
never gonna be home to mout I'm like, I know,
but when I am, I want to so you like going.
I just I don't like anything working outside. Yeah, I
mean I like the internet. You don't like the sweat,
not anymore that swept working out. But I'm good. I
don't need I used when the money's good. But I
did maintenance on a golf course forever mode all yards, forever.
I'm all good. You spent like three hours cleaning up
(31:29):
your backyard because there was a storm. You had to
do it, bad storm, and you had to get some
satisfaction from that. I just sent the picture to my wife,
being like, literally, that's all I cared about, was I
wanted to get it done because it was a disaster.
Because but I sent the before I said, oh man,
look at this. It's a mess over here. And then
she went, dang, that is terrible, and I went, but
here's what I just did, and I send it after
so smart like part two. Yeah, And then she was
(31:51):
she thought I was so sexy, do you? And she
didn't agree. I wouldn't disagree. She didn't think that at all.
I wouldn't disagree with her. I saw you given a
tour of your bus on Instagram. Got a new bus
I did. That's exciting. It's very exciting. So but you designed,
how do you design a bus? What are you designing? Exactly?
I mean when I say I designed that, I took
a bunch of screenshots at some other buses and I said,
I want to do this, this, this and this. Um.
(32:13):
That's kind of when I started building. I just once
I had my own, I'm like, right now, I know
how I want to do it. So when you buy
a bus, do you just you like, go to the
bus lot? I did not part bush. Oh okay, well
you designed a bus, you didn't buy the other Lets
two build it, dang, I need to do that, just
like one trip. I'll design it, go one one trip.
I'm good. You could. It's there, it's it's it's expensive though, dude.
But my my thing is always you know, that's where
(32:34):
I spend so much of my time. It's my home
on the road. So if you're gonna put money anywhere,
you want to put it to where you're comfortable and
and it's it's nice. Dude. I'm very I have not
regretted at one time. Is it true? And I think
this is probably true that it just shows what kind
of guy you are that you turned down your dad's
offer to buy you a bus early on in your career.
Why did you turn that down? Uh? Man, I feel
(32:55):
like I was pretty aware when I was a kid
of especially kind of the Texas music scene and the
guys I like grew up really idolizing and you know,
the whole mantra, their their whole reputation. It goes all
the way up to Willie Is road Warriors and doing
it the hard way and paying your dues and earning
it and uh, that was I really paid a lot
of attention to that when I was a really little kid.
And um so when I really kind of started touring
(33:17):
and trying to do it for a living. You know,
my dad's just a business man. He's not in the
music business, you in the car business, but he's numbers guy,
you know. And he was like, man, I'm by any
ears by a bus all and I'm like, I was like,
it's never gonna work like this. I'll always be looked
at as you know, the kid whose dad bought him
a music career. That was like really heavy on my mind.
(33:37):
I was like, I want to go out and I'm
gonna do it the hard way and if you're good enough,
you know you can make it. So you had to
cancel a couple of shows back in February because you
were sick. Your voice was shot, which happens. How sick
and how far did you have to get until you
were like, oh, I have to because I know you
don't want to cancel anything for any reason. Whatso well,
you know, people forget it. It's like, you know, you
(33:58):
lose a lot of your paying a lot of people
to be there. You're gonna lose a lot of money
canceling a show, like you only do it if you
if you're you know, I've done it before. I'm like,
all right, I'm just gonna play this show and go
out there. And it is garbage and these people paid
their hard earned money to come see you and they're
not getting what they paid for. Um. But I was
actually feeling a little better when we canceled that show.
(34:19):
But I had gone out and sang three nights in
a row, dog sick, like nasty sick, I mean, yacking
up stuff on the stage and not good. And so
by the fourth day I was like okay, like I'm
this is this is too much, And so we just
went back and made it up those epics good show,
and I saw that to reminded me of it. But
that's a great point that you brought up, is that
(34:40):
it does cost you money to cancel a show. It's
not yet like you're like, oh I don't feel like working,
I'm gonna cancel it. And everything's the same. No, everybody
brought on the road, the whole crew, all the forty
crew and buses and eighteen wheelers and everything. We're there
ready to roll. They're loading in and I'm like, I
can't go and there's no way I can go tonight.
You ever run what I'll do? Sometimes? Run do that
like a minute clinic and get a steroid shot. I
(35:00):
lived on steroid pills last year, it says, but then
I feel terrible, like two days later, played good golf
though you do you ever hit a golf ball on
Pregna Zone? No, what does that do? Because I'll start, Yeah,
I don't know, but you swing a lot harder than ball,
and you I've played the best golfer played my life
is after like being singing on steroid pills. Wow, he's
really selling that. Yeah, I like it. Pregna Zone. Your
(35:22):
album comes out in May. What's like, why should we
be excited? Dude? I don't know, Bobby. I'm so weird
about putting records out. I get real beside myself. Every
record I've put out, I always leave the studio film
like I missed big time. And all three of them
have done, you know, considerably well for me, even though
I felt that way every time, and hopefully this way
(35:42):
will be the same time, same way. But I don't know.
It's a lot, dude. His songwriting for me is such
a um you know it kind of it's it's a
hard on my mind um writing songs and the places
that I try to go to to write songs and
where I write them from. You know, it's not just
you know, kind of easy stuff. So you ever film
(36:03):
too vulnerable? Like I put too much out? Now, there's
a there's a song on this record. It's a piano ballad,
and I'm like, I don't think I'll ever get more
vulnerable than that song. But what's that one called? Just
so I can get it hard again? Okay? Remember that
from when he comes back next month, have your heart again.
We're gonna make him cry. Yeah, We're gonna bring a
piano in I'm to play it and he's gonna cry.
You're gonna hear it. It's got a big falsetto and
really you go high? Have you hot again? It's pretty close.
(36:27):
He seems like you've heard it before. Come on, all right,
So album comes out May twelfth. We'll talk to you
when the record comes out. But let's talk about the
tour real quick, because you put up a bunch of
bunch of new shows. How long is your set full,
Parker ninety minutes? What's your first song on the set list?
To be loved by you? Oh, you come out with
a hit? Get tickets to the show. A bunch of
(36:47):
new dates at at Parker McCollum dot com. A lot
of great openers. Corey Kent, who's awesome, Katie Offerman, love her,
Larry Fleet, I mean, Randy Rogers band. Some it's just
a Larry Allen's opening for us in Dallas. Really as
gotta be super cool for you. I've never met him.
I can't wait to meet him. I'm very excited. Doesn't
he have like a whale penis or something in his house?
What is it? Morgan? Yes? Who has not his It's
(37:10):
oh yeah, it's his collection he likes to keep him
and the reason he does is because he says if
anybody ever robs him, he wants to grab that and
that he wants that to be the story that he
hit him with a whale penis what ask him about that? Parker,
I've been I've been on the show a few times now,
and that's the best moment that I've had on this show.
There it is Parker McCallum taking to Parker McCollum dot com.
(37:31):
Handle on you crushing a gonna be at number one.
And that's it for today, Parker. Good to see you, buddy.
Thank you everybody. Yo wild it's this race stuff from Minnesota.
I have a TV recommendation that you all need to
watch asap. It's Jury Duty on Amazon Prime Slash Freezy.
It is so good. It films like the Office following
(37:55):
a jury to a case, but the case and jury
are all actors except for one jury who really thinks
she's not very tooty. And I mean I have not
laughed as hard and forever. It just came out on Friday,
I think, and everyone needs to go watching. My wife
was telling me about this show. I haven't watched it,
but it's just we have to watch the show because
only one person isn't in on it. And so I
(38:19):
was looking at the rotten tomatoes and the audience scores
a ninety eight percent, which is SuperH the reviewer scores
thirty eight. They're all funny things. I'm stupid, idiot, Yeah,
Jerry Duty, Okay, I appreciate that that's the second person
that's recommended that to me, So I'll be sure to
check it out your Amy's pile of stories. The story
(38:42):
is for Eddie. If you struggle with road rage, well
put peppermint oil in your car, or peppermint air freshener,
or eat a peppermint patty while you drive, or go
to therapy. We'll hold on back to the peppermint. So
this is like a smell. It's gonna supposed to make
me calm when people drive like fools on the road.
A new st you found that the scent of peppermint
can reduce aggressive driving behaviors, so road rage may be
(39:05):
relieved to be fair, You're not what. We all drive
like idiots. Sometimes we don't even know we're driving like idiots.
Remember when you didn't have a blink of those working
you're just cutting people off like crazy. Yeah, they could
have thought you were being an idiot and a bad driver,
but it wasn't. There was a mishap with your car.
So we all, I'm Sona say it again, we all
(39:26):
make not the best to decisions while driving, some of
us more than others, Amy, but the rest of us
we still do mess up. You pull in the middle
sometimes people can't get through and you're like, oh so sorry.
Then you don't look up. You just look at you're
staring well, and we all mess up. So if somebody
cuts you off, just think, oh, that's accidentally been me
before too, and I didn't even realize it. Okay. Also,
(39:46):
peppermints and peppermints. We need to buy Eddie some peppermint oil. Okay, Bobby,
I have small gestures that are earned you bonus points
with your wife. Small gestures go ahead. This is from
ask miss if I do them? Go ahead? Okay, Hello
and goodbye kisses. Yeah, but I leave warily and she
doesn't like it when I wake her up with a kiss.
(40:08):
She doesn't like anti sleeping beauty because that's where you know,
did they wake sleeping beauty up with the kiss? Yeah?
She doesn't like sleeping beauty then remember that movie? Yeah
me either, Okay, cuddles, Yeah, we cuddles, fine, she cuddles
me mostly. I'm a little spoon basically every night. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Little things like you know, putting a little note on
like the mirror for her or on her computer that
(40:30):
she'll find. Oh, do that one like on a post it?
Do you ever do that? Yeah? I wrote notes, but
I think if we write notes, and sometimes I'll send
her an email at four o'clock in the morning. No, no,
it is because it's like a nice email. It's not
like hey, I need you to pay this bill. It's like, hey,
I really enjoyed this. You're really nice. Interesting. The little
thing could be yes, slipping something into her bags so
she sees it when she gets to work, and it
(40:51):
makes you think about how any problem is she lost?
One that I wrote her a long time, Yes, that
you told that story at your wedding. That was like,
you're what is that your speech? Part of it? I
wrote her one was like, when's she ever gonna say
she saw this real note? Then it's never in her bag.
Turns out it had fallen out and I found it
way later. Saying yeah, chores, you could do chores. Yeah
(41:12):
you did. You cleaned up after the storm. That's true.
That's kind. That's that one show appreciation. I do a
lot of dogs stuff. Oh yeah, I try to be
better than that. Yeah, okay, affection for no reason. Yeah,
letting her sleep yeah, well sometimes and then um leading
her through a crowd, like if you're at a busy place,
like you being like I got this, babe. She leads
(41:33):
me to a lot of crowds. She's like, yeah, I
got this. Then hold on, yeah, thank you. Tricia Yearwood
had to put out a warning to her fans yet again,
she is not endorsing any sort of Keto Gummies, but
there are some ads out there that are like so
legit that she had to put out this full blown
statement that she has never been a part of, endorsed
(41:54):
or anything for these Keto gummies. It's a weight loss scam.
Don't fall for it. Why did they say she is?
Are they using her pick? Sure? Is it a fake? Yeah,
they're exploiting her name, her face, her voice, overall likeness
without permission, Like it's a really big how do you
do that? Like, yeah, you're gonna get I guess you
can do it until they sue you, cease and assist. Wow,
(42:16):
there's fake Facebook. Maybe people are called never endorsed a
single thing in my life. All of a sudden, every
time I turned the radio on, its me be like, hey,
are you here for? That's really you? Yeah, that's really mean.
Is that file? That was Amy's pile of stories? It's
time for the good news unbox. There's this fifty two
(42:40):
year old nerd and Phoenix, Arizona nerd. Are you saying
that it's just some sort of lunch box? Yeah? This
is okay my editorial. I'm adding my own commentary to
the story. Hey, he is out playing Pokemon Go. That's
why he's a nerd. He's fifty two years old and
who knew pokemon Go was still a thing but you didn't. Yeah,
you know why, because I'm cool. I'm hill anyway, that
(43:01):
says they're hi, not hit. I'm the in crowd. Go ahead,
this is the outcrowd. So he's out doing Pokemon Go
and he comes across a fifteen foot long spoon that
had been stolen from the local dairy queen. This wasn't
the news because they couldn't find the spoon. You have
three dudes on a motorcycle took the spoon and ditched
it behind the middle school. And this guy's out paying Pokemon.
I don't know where you're trying to get a go
(43:22):
get what are they called? And what's his name? Pikachu?
That's his name, a Pikachu. And he finds a spoon
and he's able to return it to the people at
the dairy Queen, and it was gonna cost him seven
thousand dollars to replaces. They said, Hey, as a reward,
we're gonna give you every single blizzard that's on the menu.
You can come by once a day and get a blizzard. Hey,
(43:42):
oh cool for the summer, for all those summer flavors.
He can try all of them. But I was like, oh,
if it's gonna cost him seven thousand dollars to replace it,
him some thousand dollars, no, or they just got out
of new in them at that logic, okay, and then
give him thirty five hundred they're giving him. He wasn't
doing it for a prize. I know he was trying
to find a Pikachu. And you know you wouldn't stood
(44:04):
in line to meet a teen mom in the book signing.
But I'm not fifty two years old. Basically, you look
at cool got him, you know, he looked at but okay,
good for him. He turned it in as he got free.
DQ what do they want to what's that big spoon for?
Like they yes, oh dry queen still but I know
the d Houston name. So yeah, he returned the spoone.
(44:25):
But I just remember being in the news like three
days looking for the spoon. Yeah, they even made shirts
of the restaurant. They were handing him out, where's my spoon?
Hu funny. Well they got it. I got it. There
you go, Yes, anything else, it's good. I don't feel
like you came into this negatively. I had no idea
if he found the Pikachu or not. But he got
the spoon back and he said, I don't even want
