Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's the Best Bits of the Week with Morgan number two.
What's up, y'all, it's the Best Bits of the Week show.
I'm Morgan number two and I'm so excited to be
hanging out with y'all again this weekend. If you guys
are new to listening to this every week, what I
do is I take the best seven bits from our
show and count them down so in case you miss

(00:23):
something or maybe you want to get the behind the scenes,
which is from social media. What I'm hearing from y'all
is that you love the behind the scenes when I
bring on another show member and we talk about all
kinds of crazy things. And of course this weekend, I
had to bring on Mike D because Mike D is
a newly married man. Yeah. I mean, last time we

(00:43):
had you on, you were just a fiance and now
you are a newlywood It feels weird to say. I know,
it feels weird someone's husband now, Oh that's so weird. Okay, well,
we'll get into all of that good wedding stuff because
you know, just spoiler alert, it's coming in at number one.
But we have a lot to talk about to get there,
so let's get started. We always have some big guests

(01:06):
on the show, and of course this week we had
in Zach Brown because Zach Brown Man released a new song.
We haven't talked to Zach Brown in a long time,
and he obviously hasn't been on the road in a
long time like a lot of other artists. So we
talked about everything he's been up to in the pandemic,
his crazy hobbies, he's gotten into like total ba Zach Brown.
We already knew that, but he just solidified it. So

(01:27):
listen to this interview number seven on the Bobby Bones Show.
Now is Zach Brown Zach, what's up? Buddy party man?
Hey good, where are you right now? I'm in Nashville.
You got a new song called Same Boat. You wrote
this yourself, obviously, so you go into the room to
write this song, like the concept does it? Does it
come up from it? Like a note someone had in

(01:47):
their phone? How does the same Boat come together? This
was actually an idea that was brought to me. Ben
and Jonathan Singleton actually brought this idea in and then
we started working on it and it just started in
Magic Man. It just started coming out and it's it's
just a fun It's a fun song if you want
to listen to it on that level. But there's a

(02:07):
message there if you want to listen on that level too,
so you can. You can smash your margarita while you're
listening to it and then have a good time or
get a little, you know, a little message as well.
How are you doing, man? Oh, I'm good. I mean,
it's ain't about me, Zach. We hadn't talked to him forever.
I want to I sit here and talk to people
all day about me all the time. So let's I'm

(02:29):
doing good though I'm getting married for the first time.
Thank you for asking. Now feeling for some reason, I
feeling comfortable now that Zach has asked about men out.
He turned it on me. I wasn't ready for that. Hey,
when you guys get back out on the road, Zach,
you have so you have but fifteen number ones or so,
and you also have new music. How are you balancing
that set less between the number ones, the new music,
the amazing covers that you guys do. Like what goes

(02:51):
on in a meeting there, man, It's it's exciting just
just having my guys back together again, just being able
to be in a room and rehearsing. We've started rehearsing
for the band. I mean, after being off like this, man,
I'm on fire to get out and play. I've been
on fire to to write this music. I've been on
fire to like get back, get the world back together
again and remind people what America really is and not

(03:13):
what's been shown on the media for the last year
and a half. Like I'm really excited to to just
go out and do what we do. I feel very
rejuvenated after after being off and after being away from
people so long. Super excited to have you back. And
if you guys are are listening to this now, I've
seen Zach a few times and holy crap, what a

(03:34):
show it is. I mean it is. It's everything you
think it would be, what the massive hits. But also
they just do such a big show, and all of
a sudden, they'll do Dave Matthews Band or Metallica and
you're like, wow, I can't believe they did that. Then
they'll play new music and most times I don't even
want to hear new music, but I'm like, dang, that's
a good song. So you guys go check out Zach
to comeback tour it's I mean there, I'll have a
whole page of dates here, but starting August fifth in
New Jersey all the way to October seventeenth. So you're

(03:58):
Nico Moon, who's a friend of ours now is to
yours as well. Um wrote a bunch of songs with
you and even came in with you. Back in the
Sir Roosevelt days, he had a number one like how
do you feel about like one of your guys making
it now on a different level. I'm super happy for it, man.
You know, I saw I saw an ego playing at
the Mansion and Carrolton, Georgia like forever ago, and I

(04:21):
believed in him ever since I saw him play the
very first time. So I'm super happy for him. Um
doing his own thing, being out there, and you know,
his songs are popping up now on my kids. My
kids are listening to you know, playlists and stuff, and
Nico pops up on his playlists and it definitely makes
me proud. Um. He deserves it, man, He's super talented
and a great, great human. Also, Zach Brown is on

(04:46):
with us. He's got a new song that we world
premiere today. You get you still get nervous when a
new song comes out, or are you mostly just relieve
that you're finally able to get the song you've been
working on so long to to be played for people.
Now I'm excited, man, I'm like, I'm like, a the
same fire that I had when we've made our first album,
that's the same fire that I've got again coming back
out with this record. Man, I'm super excited. I think

(05:08):
we've written the best record start to finish that we've
ever done, and I've been able to spend more time
writing on it and working on it than anyone that
I've ever done. So I'm really excited. And this is
the beginning of it. You know, it's hard to pick,
like which song is gonna represent the album? You know,
like what is that? What does that look like? You
want to? You know? And are people gonna think that
all the songs are gonna be like this? You know,

(05:28):
but we've got a good, a really great flow. It
was hard to pick which which song was gonna be
the first one. Aside from music, which I would say,
you're an expert of music, what else would you consider
yourself an expert at? You know, I dabble in a
lot of things, man. My favorite thing in the world
to do is to spearfish. Do you go down like
you swim down? You throw the spear in the water.

(05:50):
Is that how that works? Or you do it from
the boat? No? No, you do it in the water.
You know one day these fish you're gonna get upset?
Is they're gonna ambush you, right like I see McGraw
two spear fishing. And you know one day you're gonna
run into a whole group of these fish are a
little bigger than you, that have heard rumors about you,
and they're gonna take you down. Does that worry you
not at all? Man? You know you kind of at

(06:12):
the mercy of the ocean. And so if that's the
way that I'm that I'm supposed to go, then then
so be it. Man. I'll you know, I'll take the
Viking approach. If they're gonna carry me, let's do it.
I saw a picture on your personal instagram if you
playing pool? Are you a good pool player? I? You know,
I don't go off. I maybe we'll learn one day.

(06:33):
But when I'm an old, crusty old guy, if I
make it that far, I want to be a really
good pool player. So but Braxton at the house, got
my kids playing at the house, and it's It's something
I definitely enjoy doing. Can you go out somewhere and
have it? Because if you're not wearing like did Zach
Brown look from Zach Brown Band? Can you go out
and have a dinner without people bothering you? Are knowing

(06:54):
who you are? Or are you so unmistakable even just
with the beard in your face that people are like
Dutch Brown. No, man, I'll slide by a lot. You know,
occasionally people recognize me. But you know, in Georgia where
I live, and then around Nashville, people are cool. You know,
sometimes people notice and it's not a it's not a
big deal. You know. I'm really not a big deal.

(07:15):
I'm just a dude, you know. But I definitely don't
I don't pander attention if I'm not on a stage,
you know. So I'm happy just sliding by and and
getting to sneak sneak, you know, under the radars. It's
pretty it's pretty good, man. And I get away with
it a lot, you know, with a ball cap on
and and sometimes you know, when I'm off the road,
I'll kind of cut my beard short too, and people

(07:36):
don't even recognize me. How many tattoos do you have
at this point because it's head to toe right. Uh,
it's not not exactly. I have a lot more a
lot more space for it, but I do. My tattoo
artist is here in Nashville, Adam the Kid, and he's

(07:58):
just awesome. Man. You get it to tattoo from him.
He doesn't dig too deep, man, he gets it done quick.
It heals quick, and it's just like he makes it easy.
Adam the Kid is also my tattoo artist, and he's
also coming guest hosted our show before and so you know,
just a super creative guy. Does he put tattoos like
on your head? Do you have tattoos on your head

(08:19):
at all? Do you have tattoos in like like under
your arm? Like weird places? What happens there? Well, there
are places that definitely hurt more than other places. Um,
and it's weird places like you wouldn't think, like on
your elbow or like you know, I mean for me,
like this side piece of my of my finger, like
the inside between your fingers like that made me want

(08:41):
to throw up. Why would you get why? Yeah? Why?
Well he didn't know it was gonna make it. I
feel like sacks, like Jeff Bezos, like he's so successful,
he has so much money, he's so creative. Now he's
just doing stuff because he's bored, Like he's done everything
at this point. So it's like, all right, tattoo in
between my thighs right there in that little spot because
I'm me feel like, is there anything to that? Zach. No,

(09:04):
this was my wedding band and I was blessed to
be married for twelve years. But that was so I
didn't lose my ring, and so that was the reason
that I had it on the inside of my finger.
But that little tiny spot between was the worst of anything,
the worst ever. Well, we're glad you back. We're glad

(09:25):
you got a new song. We can't wait for the record,
we can't wait for the tour. We played the new
one called Same Boat from Zach Brown. Zach, it is
good to talk to you, my friend, and hopefully I'll
see you around town sometime soon. Yes, Sarah, thanks Bobby,
good to see you by day. It's the best Bits
of the Week with Morgan number two. This week, the
show got stuck into a segment where we all had

(09:47):
to confess something really weird about our bodies that we
didn't like. I don't know about y'all, but getting vulnerable
is really hard. And I'm about to make Mike d
get vulnerable because we all had to. So, Mike, what's
something you don't like or what we about your body?
I mean, where do I start? I hate? Okay, No,
we need self love and hair too, Mics. It's just
a few things. I would say. The hardest thing about

(10:08):
me is I have hair everywhere, like from my chest
to my arms, to my knuckles to my feet. I
just can't get rid of hair. It's everywhere. Okay, So
do you shave a lot of it or do you
just leave it? Let it be? Like when I was younger,
I was like, I got to control this and shave it.
And I did that for a while, and I'm like,
you know what, I'm just gonna be me. I'm gonna
let it grow. So now you have it everywhere everywhere,

(10:31):
and that is that like a trait that's been passed
down to you. Yeah, my weird to say with My
grandma's really hairy, So I get it from my mom's
side of the family. And then ever since I was
a kid, I've just always had a lot of hair.
The only good part about it is like the hair
on my head is also really thick, so I don't
really have that fear in me of like I'm gonna
lose my hair pretty soon. Are you worried about passing

(10:51):
that down to kids if you guys ever decide to
have them. Yeah, we've talked about that. Our kids are
gonna be very hairy and anxious and just overall we're like, man,
should we even have kids? Well, then I'll point out too.
I mean, this is like one of the highlights for
me at your wedding was that I got to meet
your family. But when I talk to your dad, he
has this really sick handlebar mustache. Yeah, my dad basically

(11:12):
looks like the guy you would see on a bottle
of hot sauce because his mustache is just rocking. Yeah,
he's had that forever and he takes pride in it.
He waxes it, he trims it, he loves that thing.
When name was a really fun conversation when I asked
your mom how she felts about it, Because you know,
the wives are always like, oh I hate the hair,
or or they love it. It's one or the other
and your mom was like, not like it, but he

(11:34):
gets a lot of attention, and I get jealous. And
I was like, okay, I get that, and I think
my dad he kind of likes the attention a little bit.
Just you know, it's a conversation starter. People will see
it like, hey, I love your mustache, like how do
you do that? And you'll tell him and he likes that. Well,
let me tell the listeners, this isn't just a normal
mustache either. Like it's a handlebar like he has it out,
it's rolled to the side. It's so perfectly shaped, it

(11:54):
has a twirl. Yes, it's so perfect that I understand
why it gets all the attention because it's not just
a normal mustache. Yeah. So, so I have a feeling
it comes from your dot side to a little bit,
I mean a little bit. I can't grow one, and
so I didn't get that side of it. I got
harry everywhere else except my face. Okay, so you can't
grow hair on your face, I can't grow a beard,
I can't grow mustache. You look like you have some
stubble though. Yeah, but if it grows in, it's not okay,

(12:16):
not full. It's not a full situation happening, Yeah, not
at all, okay. And is there any others that you
want to confess about your body that you like. I mean,
I run a lot, so my feet are pretty messed up.
Even before I started running, I've had problems with my toes,
so they look terrible. So I never wear sandals, flip
bops or anything like that, even in the super hot
months hot. I will wear socks with sandals. I will

(12:40):
do that. My look is no my slides. I'll wear
my socks. It's more comfortable. I mean, you who wear
crocs and not have to wear socks now, you would
rather wear the socks. Crocs, socks and slides is my look? Okay?
And how does Kelsey feel about this? She's fine with it,
she grew to like it. She doesn't care. She doesn't
make me try to shave her any well. I mean,

(13:00):
y'all are married now, so she loves you for who
you are. Yeah, so obviously that works out for y'all. Yeah,
she's good with it. I mean, I confess that I
have a mole on my head, but something that I
really don't like about myself, I guess per se that's
not super weird, but I hate my knees. Your knees, yeah,
like the way they look. Yeah, I just feel like
knees look really weird. I think everybody's knees look I know,
and I've the more that I've started to think about
my knees and I see everybody else's knee I'm like,

(13:22):
knees are just weird. So you don't like them in pictures?
Are just like looking at them pictures, I don't mind them,
like just myself, But then I see him in pictures,
I'm like, they look like they have little faces on them,
and I'm like, that's how your knees are a supposed
to look like. I know they're necessary, but they just
look so funny to me. Interesting. I know we're weird
bet beaves that I have all right, Well, before we

(13:42):
get two more vulnerable and we get really sad up
in here, which we don't need. Yeah, we're talking about
happy things, y'all can hear all the confessions that we
made about the weird things about our bodies. Number six
Amy thinks she has a tail. You know she has
a tailbone, Sure we all do, but she thinks she
has her bone comes out heart more than other people.
So she constantly hurts her tail. Yeah, yes, my tail,

(14:05):
my tail of my tailbone, like in yoga. I noticed
years ago. I never knew I was different at all.
I thought I just couldn't do certain moves that other
people could do, like if you rock back and forth,
like from your back up to your legs, like I
couldn't earth like boat pose. That always hurt me so bad,
Like I would have to get up and be like
how how well? And I was at a water park

(14:28):
and going down one of these slide things and we're
I'm in a tube though, so my butt's kind of
like hanging out and hitting it. And then I went
over this bump and my tail hit the bump and
it hurts so bad. So and nobody else, like nobody
else in my family had the issue. Can you see
it protruding from your butt kind of a little bit
about You can feel it, and I have felt other

(14:50):
people's just to see. That's weird, I know, And though
if I know it seems weird, laugh laugh if you want.
But you think you have an extra long tailbone that
looks like a tail like or it didn't tuck under correctly,
or something happened to it. Now when I was in
maybe second or third grade, I was going off this
slide and fell and landed and hurt kind of my

(15:12):
tailbone area. It was really scary. I had to go
my mom had picked me up. I'd to go to
the doctor in the middle school. But I wonder if
that's like an injury, like it bumped the tail. I
don't know, and of lower back problems. I don't know
if it's related. I could just be marrying all this
stuff together and it's unrelated. And I was just born
with a little teeny tiny tail. So what's the weird
thing about your body? Let's go around the room. Oh,

(15:33):
Like it's like, oh man, this is like me. I
have these on top of my shoulders. I was always
so skinny as a kid, and they're still here. Like
my shoulder blades like pop out like Amy's tail does. Yeah,
of my shoulders. Yeah. I was always embarrassed to take
my shirt off around people. So I was a kid
at to pull someone with a shirt on because I
had these little bones coming out of the top of
my shirt. I still do. I don't hate it as

(15:54):
much anymore because I don't care that much. But that's
the weird thing. Also, I have an extremely double jointed thumb.
My right eye doesn't work, I'm colorblind. My head is massive.
I got a lot of physical things. Now that I
kind of list them out, it makes me special. Nut. Yeah,
I mean I'm special. I go that. I'm okay with
my kids. Amy has a tail, Eddie. I just have

(16:15):
viddle ego on my face, like little white spots on
my chin. But that's that came later in life. I
didn't have to deal with that as a kid, thank goodness.
But as an adult, I'm like, whatever, it's part of me.
Did kids make fun of you for anything? Is physically
as Again, I have big ears. I mean I was hairy,
you know, so like a lot of kids like Ninja,
Turtles and Splinter. The rat was big then, so they'd
call me Splinter and stuff like that. Oh ray, what

(16:37):
was your your body weird? Well, I'm double jointed so
I can bend all my fingers back for the video. Whoa, Yeah,
I know, it's awesome. I can take his finger and
bend it all the way back. Yeah, all of them
for the most part. Oh oh, I've never seen that before.
That's crazy. And then I also have a little piece

(16:58):
of skin on top of my eyelid. So people always being, oh,
you have something in your eye. I'm like, no, no no, no,
it's piece of skin that's just there. They're called sties.
Your fingers are disgusting. That's awesome, Yeah, lunchbox. Well, it's
hard to find something wrong with perfection. But the only
thing that I can think I was I can't touch
my shoulders, like if he's just huge. Yeah, And I
can't pat myself on the back because arms won't touch.

(17:18):
Can you do your opposite arm? Do you? I can
do my opposite arm? Like in elementary school, the teacher
would always say, oh, pat yourself on the back, And
I was so self conscious because everybody would just take
their right arm and pat their right shoulder. And I
look around, make sure no one's looking. I take my
right arm and pat my left shoulder because I couldn't
do it. You ever seen him eat too? Like he
I can't. Yeah, he holds like the fork like a shovel.
He can't. What's happening there with your arm? I don't know.

(17:42):
It's just the way I was born. It's hereditary. Because
my grandpa can't do it, my dad can't. I can't,
can't do it his palms in the air like flat,
like give us money, right, Yeah, I can't do that.
I have to turn my whole body to the side.
He's not joking. I try to turn it, it won't
turn more than you anything. Weird. No, I have a
mole on top of my head that whenever I get

(18:02):
my haircut or hairstylists have to do it like catches
on the comb. Oh so it like hurts a little bit,
but Christian, it's just there, just exists. Whatever. Yeah, I
mean that's I mean, just imagine here, a dude and
you're running your hands through a hair and get stuck
on this nasty big mole. Hey, thank you all for

(18:23):
being vulnerable here. I was gonna say, and nobody making
fun of anyone, But then Morgan just took it, just
took the brunt of it. It's the best bits of
the week with Morgan. Number two. This week on the show,
a listener called in and asked us a really fun question.
She asked Bobby if he had ever gotten star struck,
and it created this whole conversation about all of us

(18:45):
confessing the times that we've been starstruck, and of course
I admitted those times for me, where Shani Twain and
Dolly Parton, because hello, they're icons, and everybody else had
these really cool moments, a lot of them in country
music because that's what we work in UM, but you know,
there's so many other moments. So Mike, I want to
know who you have gotten star struck over. I didn't

(19:06):
get to meet him, but I got to see post
Malone in concert, and it was a very small show.
He was doing this dive bar tour and I got
to go see him, and just being in his presence,
I was in awe. And I don't really get that
with anybody. We see people perform all the time right
there in the studio, we could touch them and we
know those people. But seeing post Malone that close is

(19:28):
the closest I've been to that amount of starstruck. And
I didn't even get to meet him, and you were
just in like it was kind of being in his vibe.
I mean, if that's small of a setting, right yeah,
and you see him right there, and it's just knowing
that this person who has created this music that you love,
that you've been following for so long to be in
the same room as you when he came out it
was like seeing some kind of like prolific creature or

(19:50):
something for me. So I was just in all of
his performances presence in general, and it was a crazy feeling. Well,
and you've been a post Malone stand for gosh, I
mean as long as I've known you and longer than that.
What was like the moment that this kind of all started.
I mean I was really there from the very beginning
when he posted his first song on SoundCloud. He had
a song called white Iverson that he posted and it

(20:11):
went viral and I was listening to it like this
is something I've never really heard before, and just something
about his message about how he grew up and all
that combined with his music. I was all about him
from the very early stages, and I was telling like
Bobby about him, like, hey, you gotta check out post Malone.
And it was maybe like a couple years after that
song where everybody else started to, you know, understand him
and get his music, and I was like, I was

(20:32):
on this guy a long time ago. It was the
one artist that you can fully claim as your own. Yeah,
that is the one. I hear you. I feel that
way about Sam Hunt for me because long before anybody
ever started listening to him. I was vibeing to house Party,
I want to say. But when it first dropped on
iTunes and I was just scrolling through and I found it,
it wasn't like a released song. I was just kind

(20:52):
of like chilling at that point and I was rocking
out to it, and then all of a sudden it
got put on the radio. I was like, no, no,
everybody's no, no no, no. There's a thing with that of
like finding somebody so early on you feel like you
have this ownership over them, and almost you you want
to see the succeed. But it's also like you have
this piece that only you get to enjoy. Yes, well,

(21:13):
you get like also too when it when it goes
to the radio and it goes to all these people,
it's posted and you hear all the time. It's not
that like unique moment where you get to listen to
it on repeat for yourself. Somebody else's repeating it for you.
I think that's part of it too. So there's that
side of things. But what also to what famous celebrity

(21:34):
I'm gonna ask you like three questions. Okay, what famous
celebrity would you love to have dinner with, go on
an adventure with, or meet your family, and they can
all be the same or they can all be different.
For dinner, I would say Adam Sandler, Oh, because he
seems like the most down to earth guy ever. Like
Eyehop story. Yes, he goes to Eyehop, he goes plays
random basketball games, and as big of a celebrity, as

(21:56):
big of a movie star he is, he just seems
like a normal guy could have over and you wouldn't
be you know, snobby in any way that he would
be really cool to hang out with. Yeah, no big ego.
I don't get ego vibes from Adam Sandler. Yeah, he
seems like a great guy that I would like to
hang out with. Do you feel like he would be
super sarcastic though? I feel like he's one of those
that you may not know when he's joking with you
or not. I feel like that. I feel like he

(22:18):
doesn't have the same demeanor that he does in movies.
I don't think he's going to come in and be
like crazy hilarious, No, not like happy Gomore. Yeah, he's
gonna come in pretty chilled out and probably have like
a dryer sense of humor. Yeah, and you're just gonna
be like, wait, wait, was that a joke? Yeah? Okay,
well what about an adventure with so one of my
favorite shows growing up was Jackass. Oh yeah, And I've

(22:39):
been a big fan of Johnny Knoxville for a long time,
and I think hanging out with him and going and
doing something crazy would be like a dream come true.
You do, And in the side room before, like we
were recording this, we were talking about you being a piro.
I think people something that people may not realize about
Mike is that he have this kind of wild side
that's a little tame, yeah, because of how quiet you are. Yeah,

(23:01):
but I feel like if we let you, you would
go off the walls of doing crazy, random stunts. Yeah.
It comes out in different ways. I think with me,
my wild side comes out into the things I pitched
for the show and I make Lunchbox do. It's like
I have these things that I would like to do,
even from the getting pepper spray thing that we did
on the show that was inspired by Jackass. Like my

(23:23):
whole thing of like having a fascination with safety equipment
came from Jackass, and I think it was because I
watched it as a kid so early on, and I
thought it was so cool and fun. Is why now
as an adult I have that wild side inside of me. Well,
if I'm relating the two, I do feel like some
of your writing relates to that in that aspect, Like
you write to that funny side and that very like

(23:43):
practical joker kind of aspect. Yeah, So what is like
the craziest few things that you've wanted to do but
like can't convince anybody to do. Well. I've been working
on some now that I'm trying to find a way
to pitch and it's kind of I don't think they're
danger durst, but I just think that I don't want
to say what they are exactly, but I don't think

(24:03):
we can get them cleared. See that's the thing too
about you, is that they come in and yeah, they're
just a little bit off, and you're like, the thing
is come from I'll have an idea and it makes
perfect sense written down, and when you start to execute
the play, and you're like, if somebody gets hurt at
any point, or if somebody gets upset at any point,
we can't do this because I just have these big

(24:24):
ideas that I would love to do. They make sense,
but it's like the legalities of it. We don't want
anybody getting hurt or sued. Oh yeah, that sued part. Yeah,
I think I'd rather take a broken boat over me.
And the other thing I've learned from Jackass is the
thing about doing big pranks or elaborate stunts is I
like they always bring it on themselves. And that's what
I kind of bring onlong to the show, is like,

(24:45):
I don't want to have fun at somebody else's expense,
messing with somebody else and hurting their world. We want
to do things that we're the basis of the joke
gets on us, like us doing it, making essentially lunchbox
do it is what I want to do. Yeah, when
we do this been the way and all of us
have to do some ridiculous thing, Yeah, it's us, It's
on us. Yeah, I'm very well aware lately. Yes, you

(25:05):
had to eat some weird things late. Yes, thank goodness,
though that neither one of us are gonna be on
the Cicada wheel though. Yes, our our dietary restrictions have
come into hand in that situation. I know I got
blasted a little bit on the internet for that. I
was like, look, I've been on that spending well every
other time. I was willing to go to space. I
ate the stink stinkiest stink I was about to say

(25:26):
stink stinkiest fruit. I ate the watermelon and mustard. So
nobody can tell me that I don't try to do things.
It's just I physically don't want to vomit if I
don't have to. You actually wanted to go to space, right,
I did. I would love to go to space, and
I still want to go to space. I would want
to go to I feel like I feel like too.
That's like our like side of our personalities that connect

(25:48):
a lot in that way, because yours doesn't get to
come out that often, but when it does, you and
I are both like, yeah, we'd do that. Yeah. I
like to experience things to later be able to say
that I did it, and I think going to space
would be one of those things. Like who it's to
go and see the world from that far a distance,
experienced things that you would never experience otherwise I would
want to go. I would argue that you and I

(26:09):
are both very much about life's adventures. Yes, that's a
good way of playing it, right, anyway. Yeah, and I
think you're I was about to say your girlfriend now
why Yeah, do you feel like she's that way or
do you provide that and your guys' like relationship? Oh?
I think I provide that. Yeah, I'm kind of like, hey,
let's do this, and she's like, okay, I'll try it
with you. But yeah, I have to put you a

(26:30):
little bit with those kind of things. Is there anything
that you're like afraid of? Do you have any fears?
I don't want to reveal my real fears because there's
one of them I have that it's a weird fear
and if everybody on the show finds out, they'll make
me do something with it. So I've never revealed that.
You have to tell me. You know how many times
we've talked about like our fears. Okay, you have to

(26:52):
do That's why the question never comes to me, because
I know when I reveal it, this thing is going
to show up the next Yeah, I need to know
it now. I am definitely afraid of chickens. Chickens, and
I'll tell you why. Okay. So as a kid, every
single Christmas in summer, my family would go to Mexico
and not the nice part of Mexico. It's not cancoon
or anything. It's the middle of nowhere, Mexico. You live

(27:13):
on a dirt farm, essentially nothing there. My grandma had
a lot of chickens, and in order to go to
the bathroom in Mexico, there's no running water, so you
just have to go outside. So at night I would
wake up in the middle of the night, I have
to go to the bathroom. I'd go outside and I'd
walk under this tree. And at night, all the chickens
would go to sleep in this tree. So we'd have
to walk under that tree with all the chickens, and

(27:35):
they're all just there, and sometimes they poop on you.
Sometimes they come down and chase you. And I was
always definitely afraid of chickens from that point on, and
every time we would go to Mexico, I would be
afraid of the chickens. I would get chased by them
and just freaked out by them. They're flapping is everything
just creeped me out about them. I'm so sorry. I'm
not trying to laugh at your fear, but I'm picturing

(27:57):
you in this moment, like I'm running from chickens and
you're in the middle of night just having to pee. Yeah,
it was terrible. So ever since then, I've always had
this fear of chickens just like attacking me or chasing
me in any kind of form. Oh my gosh. Okay, yeah,
but I don't even know what we would do around Hey, Scooba,
bring a chicken on Tuesday. We're gonna have my carry,

(28:20):
even being a round one. Yeah, give me you that fear. Yep,
so a lot like lunchbox with snakes. Yeah, okay, Yeah,
it doesn't make you laugh like and you're like when
you say, like chicken out louder like, Yeah, I know
it's a ridiculous fear, and I know there's there's nothing
about them that would hurt you in any way. Well,
but I think everybody's fears are ridiculous, right, I mean,

(28:42):
we're all afraid for some reason or another, and they're
not really valid. They're kind of irrational thinking, and that's
why we have those irrational thinking. Yeah, it's a weird thing.
So okay, well, I won't give anything away, and you
can ask right now for the bat verse to note
they're going to post about it on the b Team
Facebook age. Boby is gonna see it. And there's gonna
be a chicken in here flavor. Well, well, you can

(29:03):
make your request right now for them not to go,
because I'm gonna find out all of your fears and
we're gonna come to your house. It turns into the
fear factor. I mean, I think most of us all
have fears of an animal. So I have a feeling
that could turn into something. Yeah, animal fear factor. Yeah,
I mean mine spiders, lunch boxes and snakes, ears and chickens.

(29:27):
I have a feeling that everybody has an animal. Yeah,
I think so, and all easy animals to obtain is
a sad part. Oh yeah, they're they're not hard. Oh
my gosh. Okay, before we went on this though, the
last one, what what famous celebrity would you want to
meet your family? Oh that's a good one. Um, I

(29:49):
would want like a famous movie star to meet my family,
and I would probably say Leonardo DiCaprio. Oh yeah, And
that'd be mainly as a ploy to get him to
have dinner with us. I just think he would be
cool dinner guests, mainly because I just like listening to
the way he talks, and it would just be pretty
awesome to be able to sit down with him. What's
your favorite Leo movie? Ooh, I would probably have to say, Oh,

(30:12):
that's a hard one. He has so many good movies.
I mean, I really liked Inception for a long time,
and I thought that was my favorite movie for a while.
I'd probably go Inception. I'm sorry, I think I've seen
that one. Yeah, that's a pretty good one. I mean
you could always go like Titanic. There's no real wrong.
I don't feel like he makes a bad movie. It's
the thing. No, And I still haven't watched The Revenant, okay,

(30:34):
because it's a bad thing, but I do. I think
his best acting is in Wolf of Wall Street. Okay,
I know it's like a really controversial movie with some people,
but like when he is on drugs, yeah, on drugs
and quotes and he like crawls out of the lambo.
I'm like the fact that he did that and he
was totally sober, just on his own. I'm like, how,

(30:55):
how the fact that somebody's that good of an actor? Yeah,
forever blow my mind. It's crazy. I mean, he's been
acting since he was a kid, and to see I
was watching this thing the other day of like his
test screening from when he was a kid. He had it.
Then there's something just about certain people like man, they
could be that great of an actor from an early age.
It's amazing that creative part of their brain just turns

(31:16):
on and never turns off. Yep, I do feel that way, Okay, Leo.
I feel that I don't know that I have an
adventure buddy. Part of me wants my adventure buddy to
be Ryan Reynolds because of Deadpool. Oh yeah, I just
feel like he is that person in real life. I
feel like he's pretty close to that. Yeah, Like that's
why he's so good at that roles, because that's who
he is in real life. Him and Blake Lively just

(31:37):
kind of have that lifestyle together. So I feel like
going on an adventure with Ryan Reynolds would just make
me laugh for twenty four hours. That's a good one.
That's the only one. Then, I think. I mean dinner
with my family, would hang out with anybody. My mom
would love it to be Keith Urban. She's obsessed with him.
Oh yeah, yeah, that's her, that's her like person. And
then my dad would love Rebaba. Yeah, I wish she

(32:00):
would be great. Oh, bringing up a corn dogs could
you imagine Rema at a family dinner, like she'd be perfect? Yeah,
she's great, Yeah I love her. Okay, so many good ones.
We could be here all day talking about all of them.
But you can listen now to hear about the times
that each of us on the show got star struck
by a celebrity, you know, and we go on some
other stories too. Number five, Angela and Kentucky is on

(32:23):
the phone, Angela, what's going on? I was wondering since
our christown and came Brown have a song about famous friends?
Do you ever at star struck by anyone? Because you
know a lot of famous people star struck. The people
I get star struck by now are the people that
I thought was a star when I was a kid. Like, honestly,

(32:43):
my life now I was taken a weird turn where
I went from somebody in a trailer park to now
I get to hang out and do really cool things,
and so it's not lost on me. And I'm always
in this weird place too, Like how much do I share?
Because I would share it all with you, but then
people go, oh, look he's changed, he's all fancy pants.
Well I'm trying to walk this line the right way.
That's I want you guys to actually experience my life

(33:04):
with me, because listen, I wasn't there was no privilege
for me. Like, I kind of figured this out with
you guys, So I want to share it with you,
but I don't want to share too much. But that
being said, who do I get star struck by? Once
I got on an airplane and sat between Barry Switzer,
who was the Oklahoma head football coach, was from Arkansas,
played in the Arkansas National championship team, and Eddie Sutton
and I sat between on the Southwest Airline's flight, completely

(33:26):
starstruck because to me, that's crazy. I have a friend
named Quinn Grove who's a buddy now, but he was
quarterback of the Arkansas razorback when I was like nine
and ten years old in a Southwest conference. I get
star struck. Eddie met him a foot razorback football. I've
seen you geek over and I was like, this queen
grown and EDI's like, I don't know who that is.
So it's always people from my childhood that I geek
out over. The first time I met Garth Brooks obviously, yes,

(33:51):
when the nut came in Chessnut yeah, Mark chess Well,
Mark Chessnut came in. Well, I was like, holy cow.
So for me, Angela, that's what it is, is that
it's people that I felt because honestly, famous people now
are probably you know, in worse shape than normal folks are.
You just don't know it. You know, they're going through
the same struggle, sometimes more. Um. But I appreciate that question.

(34:13):
That's a really good question. Thanks for asking that. All right, Well,
I was good talking to you. Who's the most person
Who's the most star strik You've ever been? Amy oh Man?
Probably Amy Grants up there when she came in. Why
why Well, because she was my first concert that I
ever went to and I just loved her music. So
now meeting her as an adult, it's crazy. Eddie Garth

(34:36):
Brooks even when he comes in still to this day,
like I just stare at him, like, oh my gosh,
that's freaking Garth. Yeah you stop that, yeah, yeah, you know,
just staring thing. Lunchbox Johnny Bananas. When I met him
at the bar, I was just like in awe, just
so freaked out and I geeked, just just kept diary
of the mouth, just telled him everything and I didn't

(34:57):
let him talk, and it was just so awkward, and
then I think I kind of scared him. But yeah,
isn't it weird because you would have no idea who
Quinn Grovie is. No, when I have no idea who
Johnny Bananas is, Right, if I saw him, I'd be like, hey,
there's a guy you know. And it's also like everybody
can find a little bit of whatever this fame thing is. Now.
You just get a bunch of tring and followers and

(35:17):
be specialized in bananas or you know, slam poetry and
or then people will start to follow you and think
you're famous, and they see you in a store, as
with Amy Wanted a some kind of organic restaurant in California,
and some woman walks down and he's like, oh my goodness,
that's Kathy Johnston. And I'm like, okay, who's Kathy Johnson. No,
it is Kimberly Snider. And I used to be obsessed

(35:37):
with her smoothies and I followed her on Instagram and
I felt like I knew her, but I'd never and
I'd read some of her books, and then there she
was in person, and I did think I went up
to her because you want us yes, and Bobby said, hi,
my friend as a fan, can she get a picture?
So then we took a picture with her, and Amy's
still embarrassed right now. She didn't want to talk to her. Huh.
I thought it was I was like, she's just a

(35:59):
person's back of the kitchen. Yeah, Morgan, who are you
star struck by? It was Shania Twain. But that's because
it was on my first day working for the show,
and y'all brought Shania Twain in, who is like my idol,
And I'm sitting there like, this is not happening to
me right now. Morgan's day one. She's like, well, this
is normal. Shania comes in, Yeah, that's cool. Huh Yeah,

(36:20):
that was a really cool moment. Shania Twain and Dolly
Parton probably are the two that I really was star
struck over. Dolly too. Dolly comes in, oh yeah, and
again I'm so jaded. Now I've done like seven things
of Dolly and she's the best all the time, and
so now I'm just like, hey, Dolly, what's up. But
the first couple of times, I'm just like, this is
nuts because me, it's seven years old, wouldn't get to

(36:40):
ever meet Dolly Parton. But yeah, Dolly and Garth are
two people though, that are even better in person than
you would think they would be, and you would already
have high expectations on them both. Would you agree? Yeah,
Reba's the same way. Oh yeah, Yeah. Garth is impressive
when you see him interact with people, because he will

(37:00):
stop and come over to your self, like wherever you are,
Like he came around the studio and he'll go from
like desk to desk and be like, hey, how's it going,
like you know, and it's he doesn't. We have brand
new artists that don't even take the time to do that.
Here's the difference. You're ready for this, Yes, brand new
artists are usually not near as nice as people have
already made it. And I mean brand new like artists

(37:21):
with a hit a hit. If you're brand brand new,
you're just sucking up trying to get anybody to play
your song. Oh yeah, But once you get that first hit,
you start to get a little cocky, and you also
start to wonder, all right, is this am I gonna
make it? Like? This is how I got to really
present myself as someone that's a star. I gotta gotta
act like a star. And what we've been taught as
stars come inting like divas and they demand stuff. And
so Garth Brooks is someone who has made it. He

(37:44):
knows he has nothing to prove. There's a reason Tim
McGraw gets here twenty minutes early. He's nothing to prove.
He's just guy's gonna get here. He's made it, he
made it for a reason. Sure, I'll be early, all
hanging out, no problem, but you get let's call him
Simon Wilson. Simon Wilson comes in. He's got one, maybe
two hits. He's still trying to prove himself. I'm a star.
People need to treat me like a star. So I
might be five minutes late. I might say I need

(38:05):
this or that. It's like soap opera actor versus major star.
Oh yeah, And so until you kind of break that
next level, you go from super nice when you're young
and no hits to kind of you know, d bag early,
then then really cool again. That's kind of the cycle.
And I've seen some of my friends do that. Heck,
I've probably done that, you know where I was like, oh, oh, anybody,

(38:28):
and then I'm like, oh, look at me, and now
I'm like, who cares, let's all go Raymond to anybody?
Ever been start struck by Steven Tyler when he came
in studio That's a great one too, Yeah, me too,
me too. He came in. I was like, I have
a picture of him talking to me in studio and
I'm like, this is crazy. I can talk to lead
singer Barrow Smith and he talks how he's singing out Hey,

(38:50):
nice to meet you out all right, Hey Angela, I
hope you have a great day. Thank you for calling
the show. All right, bye bye, good to one. Huh,
all right, thank you guys. It's the best bits of
the week with Morgan. Number two. Another guest we had
on the show this week was Luke Combs. He came

(39:12):
on talking about everything he's been up too lately. Plus
he also told us when we can expect some new
music and something that happens to him when he writes
a lot of songs that you don't think it would
happen to Luke Combs. So check out this interview and
go watch it at Bobbybones dot com after you listen
to it. Number four on the Bobby Bones Show. Now, Luke,

(39:34):
how are you, dude, good man? How are you doing
pretty good? How I was watching your Instagram you were
in the studio. Had didn't hit the volume up because
I think I was at a place where I couldn't listen,
but I saw you singing in studio. You're in like
a dark T shirt. He had some papers in front
of you on a music stand. I'm assuming that's for
the new records you're recording right now. Definitely. Yeah. When

(39:55):
you go in and you got all these songs, do
you feel like could your first two records have been monsters?
Do you feel like, hey, we gotta beat that, or
is it like we just got to get to where
I am creatively right now? Like what's the goal with
the next project? I think it's a little bit of both,
you know. I mean, obviously you want to you know,
you want everything to be better than the last thing,
So I guess there is a little bit of pressure
in that sense, but also just want it to be

(40:18):
what I want it to be in a lot of ways,
you know, like I wanted to, you know, match the
songs that I've written for this thing. So I think
it's trying to find a balance of both. Did you
do the thing where you know, you pretty much have
the whole record ready and then you wrote something like
the day before and you're like, wow, this has got
to go on the record. I mean, yeah, I've been
known to do that, and I definitely have done that recently. Man,

(40:42):
But we can't say that because then everybody every trying
to be right. You know, We'll trying to get a
date like right before I go in, you know, I
want I'll be like, oh, well he just likes it
more because you know, so they'll be trying to get
trying to get their days switched to like right the
day before I go in the studio. You know, are
there any songs that will go on the new project

(41:02):
that you had and that you didn't put on you know,
the first couple of records. No, there won't. There won't
be anything that's like like like leftover stuff. It'll be
stuff that I've written. It's all stuff that I've written
since those came out, you know, barring the deluxe of
the most recent album. There's some stuff that I wrote

(41:23):
before the deluxe of the most recent album that I
feel like didn't fit that particular thing. But yeah, everything
is pretty much new. Luke Hombs is on with us
right now. So let's say you write a whole bunch
of songs for the first record of the second record
and you didn't cut them. Now do you end up
just releasing them into the wild to go, Hey, if
anyone wants to cut this, I wrote it, you can, man,

(41:44):
I have, but I haven't had a lot of takers
on that, to be honest with you, man. And I
feel like I got some stuff that's pretty solid, you know,
because I can only put out so many songs. But
I don't know. Sometimes people I feel like maybe people
think and rightly rightfully, so maybe they think like, well,
if he's not cutting it, well, then maybe it's not
good enough or something, which is not necessarily the case.

(42:06):
You know. I just have Sometimes I just have the
really great songs that don't necessarily fit what I'm trying
to do, and I would love for somebody else to
do them. You know, when you cut the demos, well
you sing them or do you let I know, the
one of the writers sing them so they don't get leaked? No,
I sing. I usually sing them. Ninety percent of the time.
I just sing they. I mean, usually nobody has them

(42:27):
but me and the and the writers, so if they
get leaked, I know who to call. Anyway, I saw
I was watching the Forever after All video and you
cry in the video. Did you know beforehand you were
gonna Because I'm worried about this with me, I'm I'm
getting married coming up. Did you know beforehand you were
probably gonna cry? Or was it just like a wave
of emotion? Man? I was. I was honestly, like, I

(42:50):
was like, man, what if I don't cry? Like I
almost had more anxiety about that, Like I was like,
what would that say about me as a guy if
I didn't cry? You know what I mean? And not
that I tried to, because I was thinking like, man,
I was like, man, if I don't cry, And then
like you know, am I if people are gonna think
I'm like, you know this like cold guy. But yeah,

(43:11):
it was really just like a rush of emotion thing
Like it wasn't like, man, I'm definitely gonna cry. It
just happened, you know. It was like so not unexpected
because I think people kind of expect you to cry
in that moment, but I was, Yeah, it was just
like a wave of the second I saw her, it
was just so crazy you write your own vows. We didn't.

(43:34):
We did not, man, we went I know that's probably surprising,
but we didn't. Man, you know, we just went with
the standard thing. Let me ask you this and I'll
stop with me taking advice about a wedding. But what's
the one thing that you spent money on at the
wedding where you're like, you know, I don't think we
need to spend that much money on this at the wedding.
I don't know, man, Like we man, I think it
was like, I mean, I think the thing that you'll

(43:57):
the food was just for everyone else. Really, like, we
didn't really get to eat that much at all, because
you're like doing stuff all day, you know, and then
you're like, oh, everyone's like, man, the food was so good,
and then you kind of realized that you didn't really
have much food at all. You had like one bite
of one thing. So obviously you need the food for
everyone else, so that you can't really take that advice.

(44:20):
But that was the one thing that you're like, man,
it's so expensive and I really didn't get to have
any of it either. So on with Luke Combs. Last
time I saw you were both at the finale of
American Idol. I guess we saw each other briefly. You're
walking down the hall and you go up and you
sing with Chase and you crush it. And my fiance
was there, and she was like, she had asked this question.
She goes, when Luke started out. Did he start out

(44:41):
as a guy who just wanted to go and represent
everybody and wear what he's wearing on stage all the time,
or did he just get successful so quick and he's like, wow,
this is already working. Let's just keep at it like
it was it the plan or was it kind of
thrust up on you because it was already working. No,
I think it was the plan, you know. It was
always to be kind. I just like, man, you wear

(45:01):
the same thing, and I don't know, you know, like
I've always just kind of enjoyed that. It makes it
easy for me, you know, to have to go, well,
this is what I'm gonna wear tonight. He just change
the boots and the hat most of the time. And
sometimes you don't even change the hat. You just wear
different boots or jeans or something, you know, And so
I don't know, I just always like that, man. I
like people. I try to make it as like as

(45:24):
less about me as possible. Is that as weird as
that sounds, you know, like I wanted to be about
the songs and the music and the show, and you know,
I've never wanted to be like a me me me guy,
like you know, look at me kind of thing, and
so I think the outfit is kind of is just
part of that thing. Like I just want to people
to like my music, really, you know what I mean.

(45:46):
I saw Darius on his Instagram like, hey, I need
some some crocs, some Luke Comb's crocs, and he got some.
So I just wonder in your house, is there just
like a closet full of crocks of all sizes you
can just send out to your buddies. I wish man,
because I had a lot of requests for those things
and they're just their guy gone. You know, like people
are like you can get more right, and I'm like, no,
I really I can't not anymore to be had. You know,

(46:11):
Like I don't even wear my pair because I'm worried
that they'll get all like dirty and stuff, and then
I like I won't even have a pair left anymore.
You know. Luke comes on with us, You're playing two
shows in Orange Beach, Alabama, July third and fourth. These
will be your first headlining shows since February of last year.
So are you already thinking about what you're going to
start the whole show with? Is that a bigger deal
now so that you haven't had a show in a

(46:31):
long time, like a real one. Yeah, yeah, you know,
I've had a few conversations about, you know, what's gonna
be on the screens and what's the set list going
to be, because I think we have i mean three
or four like number one songs that we've never played
for an audience before, you know, which is like, so
we've got to kind of retool the set like based

(46:53):
around that, because obviously those are songs that you can't
skip now, and so we've got to figure out we're
getting to the point where there's not many spots in
the set for like stuff that we normally don't do
which we like to do, that we like to go, oh, well,
here's a song off the first album that we don't
play a lot. We'll play that one tonight, you know.
So there's less of those spots now, so figuring out

(47:14):
what's going to be in those spots is kind of
is kind of the challenge of that. Whenever you play
a song and it's like the opening riff at the
beginning before you sing, which song that you've been able
to play live gets the loudest pot from the crowd? Man.
I mean, Hurricane is hard to beat just because of
that sig riff, you know, like on the top of

(47:36):
it is like so big and like recognizable. And it
was my first single, but I know there's not even
an intro to. I mean, when it rains, it pourses
up there, like it just comes in as like cold
vocal before the music even starts. And that one gets
I mean people get pretty wild about that one too.
But I guess we'll see, man. I guess maybe things

(47:58):
have changed in the last sixteen months. I don't know
how meticulous is the single picking process now. Um, I
think it's just kind of an instinct thing. Really. It's like,
you know, you have this stuff, you're going and record it,
and you think, well, man, I you know, ninety percent
of the time, I feel like we have a pretty
good grip of what people are gonna love. And then
you know, there is that ten percent of the time

(48:19):
where I get really surprised. I'm like, man, I really
felt they were gonna love this song and they and
they didn't. Or I didn't think they would love this
song as much and they do. So you also have
to be willing to listen to the fans because they're
the ones that, at the end of the day, really
you know, they're the ones that really pick what the
single is based off of, you know, what they like
the most and what they're most engaged with. And you know,

(48:40):
we tried, we tried to you know, get songs on
the radio that we think people want to hear on there.
I'm gonna ask you one final question about, you know,
the next bit of new music, Like when do we
get to hear something more than just on Instagram like
give me, give me a nugget here. Yeah, man, I
mean we're kind of I'm going into the studio one

(49:01):
more time and we should be done, you know by then.
I think, you know, we're going in and this month,
I mean, I guess it's June now, um, and so
we're we're going in this month to do some more
stuff and you know, once we get all those sorted,
I don't know, I would give I'm like fall probably
I would hope. May you know. I guess it all
just depends on you know, obviously there's some strategy involved

(49:24):
in that release date, but I think it's it's probably fall,
I would hope. So are you saying there'll be another
single from this or are you done until the new
record after this one? I think I think there's probably
gonna have to be okay, you want to say what
that is? Or no? Yeah, I don't know. I don't
know yet. I hadn't got that far. All right, I
think you have, but that's okay. You with whole information.

(49:44):
Just remember eventually it's all gonna come back and I
want to have something to them. Yeah, that's all right, Luke.
Good to talk to you, Buck, congratulations and now see
you sooner. Thanks buddy. It's the best bits of the
week with Morgan number two. We always come up with
some really fun segments on this show, and that is
a lot to do with Mike d I have a

(50:04):
feeling he's the one who came up with this too.
It's hobby in a hat, So everybody had to put
it their hobby in and then we had to draw
it out and so for a week we all have
to try out one of the other show members hobbies. Yeah,
and you came up with this ring from a thing
that Amy has interfascination with birds. Yes, which is a
great idea though, because honestly, as an adult, I feel
like as I've gotten older, I don't have a lot

(50:25):
of hobbies. Like I kind of had to start forcing
myself to find hobbies. I feel like everybody had that
issue coming up with the list, like what are my
hobbies now? Well, even in the pandemic, when you're sitting
there by yourself and you're like, I don't have anything
to do now. Yeah, Like when you stop hanging out
with your friends, you can't see your family, and you
can't go out to eat, and you can't drink. Those

(50:46):
are like the four things that majority of a lot
of people do, right yeah, or like go to coffee
if you don't drink, so you're sitting there, you can't
do these things. When people have hobbies, they can do
stuff at home. A lot of people at home, they
were like, I gotta start figuring out some new hobby,
and that's what I did. I was like, I kind
of start figuring out when my hobbies are because this
is not a good sign for me. And my adult life.

(51:06):
Did you go through that at all, like kind of
an identity crisis during the pandemic? Yeah, a little bit.
I was just like what do I do with this
extra free time that I have that it was normally
like spending in traffic or something. Right, Okay, so you
hadn't put into a hobby, But what hobby would you
put in? And like, maybe what strange hobby do you
have that others may not know about you? The one

(51:27):
I would have put in that everybody would have hated
was running. Oh yeah, because nobody likes to run. But
that's really become my go to exercise and my go
to hobby because I don't just like running for like
the physical health part. It literally clears my brain and
helps me kind of reset. I feel like it's kind
of like a therapy for me. I'll go and run

(51:48):
and during that time I'm not bothered by anything. I
get to clear my head. A lot of the time
I think of bits for the show while I'm running,
So that's kind of my thing that I do. I
go run, I feel better afterwards and I'm ready to
kind of finish my day. And how many times, like
how many miles do you typically run when you go,
I'll usually do anywhere from like six to eight on
a normal day. Yeah, so you're not like a short

(52:10):
runner even. Yeah, this is a long distance running situation.
Have you ever done any marathons? I have done one marathon,
and I'll never do one again, never ever. No. I
trained for like six months getting ready for it, just
to prove to myself that I could do it, because
I couldn't run. Maybe six years ago, I could barely
walk a mile, and I started exercising mainly through running

(52:32):
because it was free. I could just go outside and
start running. So I literally started running a mile at
about like a fifteen sixteen minute pace when I first started,
because I was one hundred and twenty pounds heavy year
than I was now. And through that I was like
getting a little bit better and better. Each time that
I would go out, I would try to add like
five more minutes, and eventually got up to that mile,

(52:54):
and I was like, you know what, if someday I
could run a marathon, that would kind of be my
dream come true. So I lost that weight and then
I started training and I did it, and it was
really hard. I missed the turnpoint at one part of
the marathon, like the halfway point, so I had to
do an extra mile, but it ended up finishing it
and it was crazy. By the end of it, I
could barely see straight. I don't remember crossing the finish line.

(53:17):
I had to take me off in a wheelchair and
give me some salt to kind of like build up
my electro lights back up, I remember. I think at
one point I FaceTime Bobby, I felt drunk basically when
I finished the marathon. Yeah, because it sounds like you're
like severely dehydra hydrated. Because the problem I had was
I didn't want to drink water during it because I
thought I thought maybe I would have to pee, so

(53:37):
all the watering stations I would just pass them, and
then towards the end, about mile twenty, I was about
to die. So I was dehydrated and just discombobulated and
didn't know what was going on. So, yeah, that was intense,
but I did it. So project for anybody who's going
to be doing a marathon, don't skip the water station.
Skip the water stations, yes, and wear comfortable shoes and

(53:59):
a nice and so you don't end up acting drunk. Basically. Yeah,
So looking back, I mean, just like you said, you've
come this whole way in six years. Do you ever
just kind of look back and be like, you know,
you just feel differently about you than you did now,
Like what is that thought process for you? And looking
back on what your life was like then compared to

(54:21):
now with your health. Yeah, it's weird to look back
at like old pictures of me and not recognize myself,
but not just like how I kind of lived my
life then, but just how if you really put your
mind towards something and you really want to change your life,
you can do it. And it was hard for me
to attempt to lose weight so many times and fail

(54:41):
so many times, and it was like, I just I
want to have that feeling and be able to do it.
So it was knowing that I was able to have
a goal, stick with that goal, and reach that goal
that really kind of changed me. And it kind of
translated from just my lifestyle to like my work and
everything else. Like I think from that point on, everything
else started getting better because I applied the same thing

(55:03):
I did to trying to lose weight to my career
and I think it, Yeah, I changed me. Do you
have any really special tips that you feel like if
somebody was in a similar situation, could help them kind
of kick start that. Because it is the hardest part
about health and fitness is that consistency and sticking to it.
I mean, I see you stick to your diet all

(55:24):
the time, and I'm like, man, I wish I had
that consistency to stick to what you do every day.
So if somebody was trying to do that, what would
you tell them? I would say, set a goal, because
if you're just going into it with no real plan,
you're going to fall off. You're not going to hold
true to anything if you don't have a goal, whether
it's wanting to fit into a certain type of clothing,

(55:45):
whether it's I don't really pay attention to the scale anymore.
I kind of threw that away. But if some people do,
you can set a number goal, but I think it's
more about what you feel. But set a goal and
then also don't start everything a whole at once. I
think that's why I failed somebody times at the beginning,
because I was like, all right, I'm not gonna eat
this kind of food, I'm gonna start exercising, I'm gonna
do all these things to change at once, work it

(56:06):
in little by little, make little changes that you can
kind of snowball on, because that's gonna be like less
of a shock to your body, less of a shock mentally,
because if you do it all at one, you're like,
this sucks. I can't eat the foods I want and
I have to exercise. I'm tired and sore. All you're
gonna quit within them one, Yeah, that burnout for sure,
and just know that it's not going to happen overnight.

(56:26):
Like have that long goal in your mind and just
don't stop until you reach it. I like that. I'm
gonna end on motivational because i feel very motivated, even
though it makes me really sad when I'm eating a doughnut,
and a shouldn't mean I think Mike not having a
donut because he's doing great on all of this. But
here he is talking about us and hobbies and all

(56:48):
of us putting them in a hat, and you know
we're getting them chosen. You'll see who ends up with
what and then gets a little weird. Number three, This
hat has everyone's hobby in it, or at least a
be they want to share with the show. And so
you'll draw someone else's hobby and you have to do
it for a week. So it's twenty minutes a day

watch the Weather Channel. I really do. My dad used
to do it when I was a kid, and I
guess passed it on to me. I really enjoy it,
and especially when the storms start coming in different parts
of the country, it's fascinating. All right, Next up, Eddie,

(58:42):
All right, give me that hat. Eddie will draw. There
are still a few of us left here. And by
the way, there's I'm not short of hobbies, by the way,
and I have a lot of time in my life.
But we're gonna do this. Yeah, four kids, Here you go. Bobby.
Bobby's hobby is listening to Razorback Daily. What is Razorback Daily?

(59:05):
Just anything? Can razorback Land? It could be baseball, can
be gymnastics. All right, So every day it's about a
twenty minute episode a day. You have to listen to
the Razorback Daily. Hey, who knows, maybe I become a
big hog fan out of this lunchbox. You're up. I
don't know who's left, so I'm left. Oh you're lucky.

Come on, I hope it's birds. Please let it be
Amy in the bird All right, we got it, lunchboxes,

supplies he will need, and then including a bird chart,
and you give us at the end of the week,
give us like a bird minute. Yeah, gosh, this is

gloves though. Oh that's cool, little girl to happen your

(01:00:53):
little girly gloves. They're gonna fit these right here. Okay,

It's creepy. Yeah, all okay, starting Sunday, we'll do everything
for twenty minutes a day. We'll come on with a
quick report each day. Okay, all right, Eddie. I hope

(01:01:14):
you enjoyed the Razorback Day. It is the one thing
I have to listen to every single day. Man, some
people listen to the show. I listened to the Rajack
Day every single day. It's the best bits of the week.
With Morgan number two coming in at number two, this
one was definitely something you had to watch online at
Bobby Bones dot com. If you haven't but ray Mundo

(01:01:37):
and Lunchbox went up against each other in trying to
crush a watermelon with their thighs, and I'll tell you,
somebody got it, somebody didn't, somebody got it twice. I
mean a lot happened during the segment, and we all laughed, right, Michael,
mean it was a great sea hilarious. I left the
room laughing after this. Yes, but it is all about
the visuals. So once you hear this bag and you

(01:01:57):
hear everything happening, I promise you it is worth going
to watch it a second time to see their reactions
and how this all went down. And they made some
money off of it too, that's nice. Number Two, we've
built the stage over here, and on this stage, we've
got towels, we've got trash bags, and we've got two
big watermelons. And so Raymundo and Lunchbox will walk into

(01:02:18):
the studio now and we will see if you guys
can smash this watermelon with your thighs we're talking about
on the show because there's a world record set by someone.
They did a bunch of them. I said, hey, I'll
give you guys some cash. So Raymondo, if you can
do it. It's seventy five bucks lunchbox. If you can
do it, it's one hundred. Yeah yeah right, Raymondo, you're
up first that you were the first one to be

(01:02:39):
called under the carpet. Here here he comes. I would
say these are pretty average to large watermelons. It's good. Yeah,
they're not too big. Yeah, but they're not small. But
they're not small. Ray which watermelon? Would you like a? Listen?
Right here, let's go. Why are you sitting on the
ground that's supposed to do? No, you stand up when

(01:03:00):
you do it. Oh. I think you can do however
you want, but I think it was the expert way
to do it is sitting down. And uh this is
also as a wrestler, this is your strongest position. So
taking you back to your wrestling in high school days, yeah,
I mean this is actually just a person I'm imagined
there was a lot of times, um where I would
pin people just with my legs, not even using my arm. Yeah,

(01:03:23):
dead serious. I mean I don't know, I could just
make that up. The world record holder did sit down
and do it? Okay, Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm saying.
If you're standing up, I feel like I don't know,
I feel like you might even go to the bathroom
on yourself, Like, if you're in that position, that's probably
not the best thing to do. Are you ready? I'm ready?
Is there? Is it timed? Well? We're not gonna sit
here all day. I think I think you're gonna tap

(01:03:45):
out if it starts to hurt, or you're gonna get exhausted.
His little feet they're crossed, Like, is that a move? Shooting?
You were there? It's like, now, be honest, yeah, right,
that's that's I get three? Three? Okay, okay, right, right, right,
that's at least at nine, right, you were at nine
size ten like in that tongue UK nine US ten.

(01:04:09):
So eat it, okay. Raymundo is on the ground. He
has a watermelon between his thighs. This is for seventy
five dollars in cold hardcash. All right, okay, okay, ready, three?
Just two watermelon one? Go oh he's gonna get it.
Oh no, he's not gonna get it, guys. This is
gonna explode everywhere. That does look like a wrestling move.

(01:04:31):
If something like I kind of try to do like
a figure eight and then you just gotta do it
like yeah, go oh, Okay, hold on, I'm gonna give
you one minute to do whatever you want. But we're
in the time. Here we go and go. Yeah, I'm
liking this side. Better go you just lock it. He
might do this. Lock, yeah, he might do this. I
felt some stuff on the inside gurgling, so I'm just
locking it and then I'm gonna twist like it's a person.
Come on, right. Oh, did you guys hear it? Yes,

(01:04:56):
this is ready to eat when it comes out. I'm
telling you right now. Ray, did you ever anyone when
you wrested? Hey, ambulances were called. Let's go, Okay, here
we go here, Well, I got time left thirty five seconds. Oh,
that kind of takes your breathway a little bit. Here
we go right, No, Wow, wow, dude, that was awesome.

(01:05:27):
Absolutely trench right now in the crotch, y'all. Wow. I
could feel it was coming, and then that's when I
just humped it and gave it that one little last
thrust hump. Oh my god, you were right. I went
everywhere I've been everywhere. Let me get my venmo so
I don't forget to hit right with this money and
the water almost hit the production equipment over there. I shot.

(01:05:48):
I told you guys, it was gonna go everywhere. It
was amazing. Is this is why Scooba Steve texted all
of us seeing if we had a tarp probably, hey,
the towels. We definitely shot at short we needed something bigger. Well,
Raymundo just made himself seventy five All right, Ray, I'm
sending it to you right now, Alrd, I'm out of here.
I gotta go dry off doing a watermelon emotion tamelon

(01:06:13):
good hey, Sedy five bucks is now officially sit there

crushing three watermelons in less than eight seconds, and that
to watch her dominate these things as a wild Now,
Raymundo just sat down and crushed a big watermelon with
his thighs. It took about him a minute. It was awesome, Right,
nice job made, Setibo bucks. Do you still have watermelon

(01:06:35):

up for one hundred bucks here you can do Ray
costs himself some money there. So are you ready to
sit down? Yeah? I am, And I gotta tell you,

(01:06:56):
as a former cross country runner, I wouldn't have thought
about sitting down. But Ray, with his wrestling background, thank
you for going first, because you gave me a little
What do you call that a blueprint? A diagram? Because
I'm ready? Okay, Well, I don't want to see you
stand in squat and try to do it. Well. I
don't think i'd be able to do it. I don't
think you would. I think Ray was right. And Ray

(01:07:18):
locked his feet too fat. Don't you worry. I'm gonna
lock it up all right. Here's the lunchbox. He's uh
setting down. He's put a watermelon between his legs. He's
crossing his feet. The watermelon is going in between his
two knees. Guys, that weighs one hundred pounds. That weighs
one hundred pounds. The watermelon is now in position. Be

(01:07:38):
more flexible. Don't squeeze until we give you a time yet.
Oh my gosh, I can feel it. You can feel

is like this. Oh, this urged to push, and that's
what I got. All right, five seconds and you have
sixty seconds? First melon? Three? I get how long to

and I got a little more something that you don't
go right here, right right right, right, right right right.

(01:10:54):
Hey man, that's awesome. Your face it was already dented
for you, right there was a little something that you
didn't have. Ray is two. No nice job, buddy, all right.
It's the best bits of the week, with Morgan number
two of course coming in at number one. Might dy

(01:11:19):
you got married? I did wearing the ring? I know, okay,
how do you feel wearing a How do you feel
I'm talking about wedding it rings and all the things.
How do you feel about wearing a ring? I thought
it was going to feel a lot more weird, to
be honest, because I don't wear any jewelry, never have,
don't even wear a watch, So I thought I was
gonna have to get used to just having something on
my hand. But I'd say within the first day, I

(01:11:40):
was like, this feels right. I like it in your ring.
Tell us about your ring. So it's a I think
the material is called tungsten, and it's just like a
gun metal, almost matt gray, just solid band and it
has a nice little weight to it. Is that hard.
It looks like it's one of those soft ones. No,
it's like a hard one and it almost looks like

(01:12:00):
the little rubber ones that people wear to work out,
but it's pretty heavy. It looks like that, but then
it's so heavy. Yeah, oh my god, this is like
a little paperweight that I have in my hand. Yeah.
I think that's why I like it. I like to
weight to it so I can. I mean, I think
at this point I don't really notice it on my
hand anymore. Unless I go to like clamp down, like
on a desk or hit something, I'll hear that click

(01:12:20):
and what it was that I was like, oh, it's
my ring. Well, when I saw your buzzle on your store,
You're like, this is my ring, Like like you know
how the girl's always I did one of those yea
on my Instagram. Yeah, and I was laughing. But I
like it though, because guys really don't, for the most part,
wear rings. It's very uncommon. I guess there's some people
that do, but most of the time guys don't. So

(01:12:41):
when they finally are wearing a wedding band, it's kind
of a big deal and you have to get used
to it. Yeah. I think I'm pretty used to it
right now. I like it a lot. I do have
a one that I wear when I work out that's
a rubber one in case so you don't lose it
or anything. That's my biggest fear is losing this thing.
And the only thing that feels weird to me now
is when I go to wash my hands, I'm worried
that it's going to slip off and fall down the drain. Yeah,

(01:13:01):
and it's gone. Yes, I have heard that happen, So
maybe you take it off when you do wash your hands. Yeah.
But then the other thing is I forget it when
I set it down, So I'm gonna have to figure
out something on me. These are the problems you have
to pay attention now. I was a married man, Okay,
So I want to talk about the wedding. You told
us a lot of things about it before it happened,

(01:13:23):
and we got a lot of details. But was there
anything that you didn't share that you can now that
it's kind of over? Oh, let's see where to start.
We talked about the ceremony, we never said where it was,
and then the other thing we were battling going into
it was the rain, yes, which held off beautifully. Yeah.

(01:13:45):
I think the thing that I never shared what I
was most excited about going into it. Okay, yeah, And
I think going into it was probably the first dance,
and it was mainly because of the song we pick
in a moment that kind of really solidified our whole
kind of story because it was at a time that

(01:14:07):
Kelsey was still living in Texas. I was living in
Tennessee and the pandemic hit and it was at a
point where we had to make a decision of where
each other was going to live, and she ended up
going back to Texas for a little bit. I stayed
here and she sent me this song. It was James
tw Please Keep Loving Me. And when she sent me

(01:14:29):
that song, I cried because it kind of told our
story in a song that I never really heard before,
of like, hey, we're going to go through hard things,
but we're going to be there for each other. So
I was really looking forward to that first dance, and
when she sent me that song, I ended up going
back to Texas to pick her up to move her here,
and we danced to that song in her apartment. And

(01:14:52):
while we were dancing in her apartment, I had this
visual thing in my head of like us someday dancing
at our wedding to this song. And this was long
before we ever got engaged, long before that story was
kind of that whole thing was happening. So in my
head I just kind of jumped frame from that moment
into her apartment to us actually at her wedding. So yeah,
going into it, that was probably the thing I was

(01:15:14):
looking the most forward to and probably the moment I
got the most emotional at the wedding that no one
else really saw except for Kelsey. Did you end up
kind of crying in that moment when you guys were
dancing together. Yeah, that in that moment I did. In
other moments where I thought I was going to be
more emotional, I wasn't, which was weird too, when I
think you were so excited that probably the excitement was,

(01:15:35):
you know, just you were so excited. It wasn't like
you wanted to cry. You were like, I'm just so happy. Yeah,
Like whenever the ceremony was about to start, I thought
I was going to pass out. I felt nervous because,
like people know, I'm not the most I don't talk
a whole lot. I don't really like a whole lot
of attention, And in this moment, I kind of realized

(01:15:55):
like everybody was there for us, and I was like,
this feels weird to meet have people all eyes on you,
all eyes yes to come, and I felt kind of
pressure to like do something or like make sure everybody
had a good time. And then in my head of
like walking out there, I felt really nervous, and then
I thought I was going to be just a wall
of emotion, crying to the point to where I couldn't

(01:16:17):
even get through everything. So like before we walked out there,
I felt like I was just going to pass out
and not be able to do it well. You had
a from a guest perspective, you had a smile on
the entire time. And knowing you, you are a very
happy person. But you're not smiling every time. That's not
your like natural face, it's not what you do. You're

(01:16:39):
just very calm and cool. So from the moment I
saw you to the moment that you all left, you
had to smile on your face. I didn't realize it
the entire I don't think I ever caught you in
a moment that you didn't, and so did Kelsey, But
like yours was just so much more apparent because that
is not what you typically look like, like you genuinely

(01:16:59):
were glowing. I know people say glowing in a lot
of ways, but in that day, in that six seven
hours that we were all around you, you were glowing.
I was glowing. Interesting. I know that's sorry, You're like,
oh my gosh, no, Okay. So the first dance, which
was so sweet, I didn't know that backstory, which even
mixed it all the more emotional. And then you also

(01:17:21):
had the first dance with your mom, which was a
traditional Mexican song, right, yeah, let's yes. And you guys,
your sister taught me a lot of dance moves to
all of those, which I loved. I had such a
good time learning them. But was that fun to kind
of incorporate your guys's culture together in the wedding, because
you guys did a wonderful job of that. Yeah. I

(01:17:41):
think that's what we kind of wanted to do going
into it, is incorporate some a lot of things from
when I grew up going to Mexican weddings, which are
a lot different, like they're a lot less formal, and
I think that's kind of our whole was our whole
approach going into the weddings. We wanted to be a
big party, kick out some of the more traditional wedding
things like you know, best man speeches, the whole toss

(01:18:02):
thing to dollar, those kinds of things we kind of
took out, and I was like, where we normally have,
let's put in some things from you know, my Mexican background.
So we put in you know, the mariachi. We put
in some of the more like the Mexican music and
stuff like that, and I think that's kind of how
we kind of balanced it of keeping it still some
of the things that Kelsey wanted and some of the

(01:18:23):
things that I wanted. So I thought it ended up
being pretty fun. Oh it was epic. The whole wedding
was epic. I mean I remember like I was going
through and I was like, I like those. I like
the non traditional things because it's so different. He started
to go to so many weddings and they're all the same.
They do the same types of things. So when you
go to one and it's just a whole different atmosphere,

(01:18:45):
you have such a good time. I mean, you all
had a taco drug chips in k so margarita machines
and I will learning Mexican dances with your sister, we
will taken tequila sho off the back from the shots
that you're doing. So your your sister, when she was
in town for Kelsey is like bachelotte party. Here. We
were talking. She's like, oh, yeah, I'm gonna be taking
tequila shots. I was like, well, I don't really like

(01:19:06):
tequila and I don't really take them, but if I'm
going to a Mexican wedding, I feel like I need
to be taking some tequila shots. So I promise I
will join you. And then it just kind of escalated
throughout the evening. I kept dancing. I was having such
a good time with your family, and I was like,
I'm joining all the people, and I just kept making
your sister taking shots with me, and then your mom
would keep taking shots, and I was like, this is awesome. Yeah,

(01:19:26):
And then I grabbed y'all as soon as I could
find you guys, because you guys were everybody wanted to
talk to you as soon as the moment that I
saw y'all on the dance, but I was like, I'm
getting them for one tequila shot. And that was the
point that I dragged you guys over for one. Yeah,
that is the weird part of the wedding is having
to make the rounds and like say hi to everybody
and having time to actually enjoy the wedding. Do you
feel like you guys had enough moments that you got

(01:19:47):
to enjoy together. Yeah. I think that was like the
biggest piece of advice people gave us going into it
is make sure you have a moment to talk to
each other during the wedding and then also have moments
to where you actually get to enjoy it. You're not
just doing all the other things, like actually have fun
at the wedding. So we made a point to like
go out and party and dance and then she danced

(01:20:09):
to what with her dad stepped on? Yeah, Trace Adkins
then they do. I think it's yeah, I thought it
was a country song. Yeah, it sounded familiar. I'm trying
to think of what else that you feel comfortable sharing
that we haven't discussed with people. You guys each did
your own vows, which were beautiful. That was the hard part.
I think that's the thing I was the most nervous

(01:20:29):
about because we did decide to write them ourselves, and
I was like, if I get too emotional while reading these, like,
I thought it was going to sound like a blubbering
idiot up there. No, I feel like both of you
guys had the perfect mix of happy and humor that
like you two just it showcased each of your personalities.
So well, yeah, she read her as really well. I

(01:20:50):
think my voice was a little trembly, like I kind
of had like the shaking feeling of my knees and
my voice quivered a bit that. I was like, I'm
gonna be able to get these out, But I think
I ended up doing all right. Well again, from a
guest perspective, had no idea, Oh interesting, no idea about
that voice tremble. I was like, oh man, nope, I
had no idea that you were doing that. But I
also like, for you, that's what you're thinking about, but

(01:21:13):
for all of us, I'm just sitting there smiling watching
you two share your vows. You know what I mean.
The last thing I'm thinking of was the critiques of
how you guys are fine, So that's probably why I
didn't notice. I was just like, this is so happy. Also,
I was handing everybody cleanexes while we were sitting there,
because everybody was crying How was that too? So I
did not notice that part. What about a honeymoon because obviously,

(01:21:34):
you know you had to come back to work. What's
your guys honeymoon situation? So we're doing a kind of
mini moon in Nashville, like a staycation type thing, and
then in the summer we are going to Scottsdale, Arizona,
Okay for our real honeymoon. Love that. How did you
guys decide on Scottsdale. We really just wanted to go
somewhere where we could do outdoor things, also a place

(01:21:56):
that has good Mexican food, and then a place where
we could kind of just unplugged and hang out by
a pool. And I have been to Phoenix before stated
at a place there that was amazing, and Kelsey's never
been to Arizona and never done anything like that, so
I was like, let's go. It's experienced it for the
first time. Let's just go and spend some time there.

(01:22:17):
Oh yeah, And it is beautiful place and I'm sure
a lot of people are gonna be sending a lot
of recommendations after we're talking talking about this. It's a
great place to be. So I'm excited that you guys
finally get to go on that. But one more question
before we let people hear your first initial response to
getting back and being a married man. You guys have
been fully married for one week now, do you feel

(01:22:38):
like anything has changed. I would say there's a feeling
now of everything just being official, and it's a feeling
of like things being permanent now and knowing that we
are in this for the long haul, that we're always
going to be there for each other no matter what.
It was kind of the same feeling I had when
I got a tattoo. I got like putting ink on

(01:22:59):
your body, realizing, Man, this thing is with me forever.
I have to make some real smart decisions now. And
it just feels more like, I don't know, like this
kind of sense of like security in a way, of
like knowing that we said these things to each other,
that we kind of pledge to each other, like, Hey,
no matter what happens, you have me, no matter how

(01:23:21):
bad life gets, no matter how good life gets, We're
going to experience everything together from here on out. And
I think it's this kind of just solidifying feeling of
like that I found my person, that I have a
lifelong partner, and that everything that comes at us. Now
we're a team. I think I've learned now like to
say we more like I am. You know, I have

(01:23:42):
a partner now forever, And it's it's a cool feeling.
You just glue again. You don't even know. I don't
think you just glowed again. You're smiling all over again
talking about it, and I love that you just compared.
I know Kelsey's gonna listen to it, and I love
that you just compared. J'alls, a tattoo's totally gonna kill

(01:24:02):
you for so funny though, But there you have it.
That's what it's like being a newlywed. It's kind of
like a tattoo stuck with you forever. You can never go. Well,
technically you could remove it and technically all these things,
but you guys are not going to It's gonna be great.
I'm so excited for your guys's marriage and your life together.
I mean, I love Kelsey, I love you. I'm just
really happy for the both of you, guys. So thanks

(01:24:24):
for coming on and sharing some more details because we've
got to talk about a little bit on the show.
But you know, overpowered by another situation that happened at
the wedding, so we had some more details about what
actually went down at your wedding. So thanks for coming
on and hanging out with us for it. Yeah. Thanks.
Here is Mike coming back on the show on Monday,
his first time back on the show. From a boyfriend

(01:24:45):
to a fiance to a married man. Number one. Let
me play you this voicemail from over the weekend. Hey, Bobby,
I just wanted to call in and congratulate Mike D
on his wedding. Also, just a little tid bit of
an I saw everyone's Instagram stories and I saw the
whole thing unfold with Raymundo. It's really unfortunate, But don't

(01:25:07):
let that take away from Mike D's big day. So
if you could avoid talking about that on air, that
would be great. Well, we'll avoid talking about it right now,
but next hour or the second segment, it's what we're
going to focus on. I'll wait till the kids get
to school, but you can't not talk about Raymundo absolutely

(01:25:28):
going berserk at Mike D's wedding. Ray I was well.
I posted a thing on Instagram where I was interviewing
Ray in the airport like a press conference. After that,
the night and there's some clips kind of mixed in
with raised antics at Mike's wedding, and it posted it
just kind of funny. But people started going after Ray
and Bay in this, and Caitlyn came in like their bodyguard,

(01:25:48):
and which is attacking people? Did you see her? No?
I didn't. I avoid that stuff, but my wife said,
do not go to Instagram post right now. People are
attacking us. They're going very hard. Well, I mean, if
there's two people Caitlyn love, it's Ray and Bay and
so someone wrote, I'll read you this comment. You seriously
think your trashy wife's behavior is funny. You are an
embarrassment to every They just curse a bit, and Kaitlyn go,

(01:26:12):
this is so rude. Rain and his wife for lovely
people who would never go as low as to troll
a stranger on the internet. Oh, my fiance blocks you
because you can't talk to our friends that way. I
haven't blocked him yet. I just saw that one. Hope.
I'm probably gonna get on that. Um, we'll talk about
it later. Absolutely, I'm open to talk about it. Yeah,
you have to be. I can't wait to talk about
like that. You can't act like that, not be open
to talk about it. He remember anything, No, he doesn't

(01:26:33):
remember a lot of it exactly. We have video every
movie made, Mike d let's talk to you for a second.
You didn't rain, and all week long it was gonna rain,
rain rain. Yeah, day came and sunny sky is all good.
It's like perfect, perfect. You have your ring on, I
do have it all feel weird, it kind of feels normal.
I like it. You had a wedding, then the next day.

(01:26:55):
What did you do the next day? We woke up,
got some coffee, got some break this, and then just
hung out and kind of enjoy the first day as
being a married couple in a hotel. Yeah. And so
did you do anything special that day or did you
just hang No? Nothing. We met up with some people
before we flew out and then just hung out. And
so you're back at work today. Yeah, you didn't want

(01:27:16):
to go anywhere. No. I think we'll do something small
this weekend and then something later in the summer, so
you will have a honeymoon. Yeah, later in the summer.
You just don't want to do it right now now, Okay,
And do you know where you're gonna go or anything
like that? I think we're going to Arizona and any
special place in Arizona. Why Arizona, Scottsdale. It's nice. My
wife has never been and we always wanted to go. Yeah,

(01:27:36):
it's it's it's a little fruit fruit like it's really nice.
It's it's like like you're like, wow, this where don't
they get all this money that you drive around? Like
every car it's like a maserati. That's where I want
to go. Well, it's a good place to go. It's
kind of intimidating to go there. Okay, Well, the wedding
was super was super nice. We go We're sitting in
little white chairs and because I have a wedding coming up,

(01:27:56):
I'm like, dang, I want how much these chairs cost
a rent? Like you all this stuff now? Is is
happening in your head? And we're sitting and we're like,
I guess it's not gonna rain. And they walked down
and Eddie looks at me and goes, Mikey gonna cry
And I go, oh, yeah, I was gonna cry for sure.
And Mikey gets up and says his vows got a
little emotional, but never cry, no tears. I thought it

(01:28:17):
was gonna hit me. I think like right before I
walked out, I had like this wave of emotion and
I think maybe I like psyched myself out a little
bit that I didn't cry. We finished the wedding. It
was fantastic. You didn't see her though until she got there, right, No,
I didn't. I noticed your head down as she was walking.
Did you not want to see her until she got
close to you? Yeah, because I just felt like the
waterworks were gonna hit me. So I was like, when

(01:28:38):
she walks down here, I'll take it in. At what
point did you actually look at her? I think right
when she turned the corner and was like walking closer
to the aisle, And what happened with your emotions? Your body?
I just got happy, Like I thought I was gonna
be sad and like feel like I wanted to cry,
but I was so happy that I just took it
all in and it was amazing. They get married, We

(01:29:00):
go and we have the reception and Miked did the
ultimate and just instead of being like, Okay, here's some food,
you guys go, it was like taco truck, big nice
taco truck. We all went to it. They had they
had a mariachi band. Yeah, um what else? He had cookie,
big cookies, and I kept going to people going, hey,
can we get the cookie yet, because nobody would get
into the cookies and they were just sitting right there
and everyone's like, I don't know if we get the
cookie set. I'm like, no, they were sitting on the table.

(01:29:22):
I want like five people there right there. There's the
two things we did is they were like, okay, if
you guys want to get to the taco truck, um,
you can go now, Kyl and I went first, Oh yeah.
The first we went out the door and we're like, okay,
we'll start. I was starving and it was super good.
Then we had the cookies and then we danced and
then I'll bring up a lot of the Ray stuff later.
But we when we did the line, what's it called
the send off? Yeah, Ray was throwing glow sticks of people.

(01:29:45):
Did you see? I heard, but I didn't see. Somebody
threw a cup too to hit you in the head.
I didn't. I didn't notice that. That might have been
right too. I don't know. All I know, that's all.
I cup come over my head and landed right on
Mike D's head as he was walking down to the
car to get married. And but overall, like the wedding
was fantastic. I had to assume you felt good about it. Yeah,
I think our whole thing going into it, we didn't

(01:30:06):
really have that high expectations aside of just having a party,
and I think that's what we wanted to do. We
didn't really do a lot of traditional things like speeches
or stuff like that. We just wanted to go full
out party mood. And how did you feel about Ray?
Just quickly? I thought he kind of brought the party
to life a little bit. Okay, there you go. Ray.
