Speaker 1 (00:02):
The week, We've got more bits of the week. What
is up, y'all, It's Morgan here. It's your best bits
of the week, and I'm so excited to be here
with y'all this weekend. But of course, I have to
note that today is a really somber, emotional day for

(00:25):
a lot of people. It is the twentieth anniversary of
nine to eleven. So Scooba Steve and I are going
to talk about so many exciting things today, but I
didn't want to start the show off without mentioning that,
and you know, coming in the number one spot, we'll
also discuss it again. But I know it's happening today.
I know it's going to be an emotional day, so
I hope this podcast brings you a few laughs and

(00:46):
smiles on a really difficult day for so many people.
So Scooba Steve is joining me today to talk about
some behind the scenes moments, which is my personal favorite
part of this podcast. You ready, Yeah, of course we
got a lots of talk about a lot of random things.
And in case you haven't listened to this before, I
count down seven segments from the show this week that

(01:07):
he might have missed or that I think he might
need to relive, so I count those down and along
the way, Steve and I will talk about just, you know,
random moments of life. Who knows, you never know what
we get into scuba and I like to talk about
aliens a lot too, so who knows. Okay, this could
be your podcast. All right, Well, here we go, guys.

(01:28):
Coming in at number seven, pity Bit, Lunchbox finally got
to share his segment idea that he had He asked
the show for advice after a pick a Bit moment
happened where we chose Amy's segment and nobody was really
excited about it. So then it turned into pity Bit
where a Lunchbox got to share his segment idea and

(01:49):
he asked for advice on a super awkward situation with
his cousin and Facebook. You know, it's always funny when
Lunchbox shares a story, especially when it involves his family.
Number seven. I've been playing this game called pick a
Bit for weeks and the one bit that has never
won is lunchboxes bit about him and his cousin, And
so today we're just gonna call it pity Bit and

(02:12):
do it. I actually think it's a pretty good bit.
I've never voted. For the record, I know you've never voted,
and that's what I'm saying. These people are just picking
the worst. I mean, some of them have been good bits,
but some of them been bad. One has been bad,
and I just think this bit is very relatable and
I really don't know what to do. I can't wait
to hear it. This is what Lunchbox sent me. He says,
your advice, please, and then he asked, does he have

(02:35):
to unfriend your cousin's ex husband. Yes. So they got
divorced in June. It was finalized in June, and me
and her are the same age, not that close, growing
up whatever, and her husband cool dude, played golf a
couple of times, happy hours, whatever. And she sends me
a message on Facebook. Hey, just checking in to let
you know that Pedro and I had our divorce finalized

(02:55):
in June. I see you're still friends with him on Facebook,
So if you don't mind, could you just unfriend him? Please?
Hope to see you in the kids soon, Nicole, and
I'm like awkward, Like, what in the world can you
just send their names a real name? I thought his

(03:21):
name starts with a pea and the first dame that
bought of my head was Pedro, so I couldn't so yes,
So she sends me that message on Facebook like she's
monitoring who's still friends with him? Yeah? Weird, weird And
I'm like, that's awkward. She's do I have to just
kick him out of my like life because he's not
part of the family. How was their breakout have been good?

(03:41):
Pedro's fault? Yeah, Pedro did some things. Okay, we don't
want to say what Pedro did it? Right? So here
we are. Does Lunchbox have to unfriend Pedro because his
cousin asked Amy, what is it blood? Blood before or no,
there's no, there's nothing there. I don't know what you

(04:05):
blood is thicker than before? Okay, I mean I would
say if it wasn't a yeah, a very amicable bull
type thing that you just help your cousin out. Do
you still like Pedro? Yeah? Nice dude, Like I mean
you didn't know him and he said, hey, man, I'm
gonna you want to go get some lu sometime. Great,
Like you didn't do anything to me, And like I said,

(04:26):
my cousin, I we weren't that close. I mean we're
the same age but we weren't close growing up shitty
and friend Pedro? Yes, oh man, bros. Before like Amy said, yes,
Pedro's cool. It didn't do anything the Lunchbox. Why not
keep them? No, he needs to unfriend Okay, waiting, so
Amy says unfriend. Morgan says unfriend. Yes, why because it's

(04:46):
just like if somebody in your family asked for your support,
that's your way of digitally supporting them. So you're just
like though, but glass enough to wear Lunchbox. If they're
not close, then Lunchbox definitely isn't close to Pedro. Friend.
Are you closer to Pedro or your cousin? Probably Pedro?
There you go, justice for Pedro, Like Pedro text me
during a sporting event, you know what I mean? Like

(05:07):
super Bowl? Hey man, I don't ever text my cousin
about that stuff. Yeah for Pedro, what you would? I
don't know what Pedro did and I'm not close to
if I'm not close to that cousin exactly, It just
depends how close were of the cousin. Okay, Raymond, you
have to make the final decision. Unfriend Pedro. And also
since your friends text Pedro and just say hey, dude,
it's politics, family stuff. You know, I had to do

(05:30):
it exactly. Don't even notice. Okay, you've heard that. You
know my weight is no more than theirs. This is
a democracy, unfriend Pedro, Yeah, by Pedro, And that is
pity bit. That is pity guy though. Right, it's the
best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two a

(05:55):
fun special guest on the show. This week, Morgan Evans
stopped by. He performed a rand new song for us,
and he talked all about it, plus why he sings
in an American accent even though he talks Australian. I
mean he's from Australia. So we got the breakdown on that.
Plus he performed that new song and some of his
big hits. So check that out right now. Number six

(06:18):
on the Bobby Bones Show. Now, Morgan, how are you, Bud?
I'm great? Hell are you? I'm pretty good. Morgan has
this like Australian beach vibed. He's in He's in flip flops. Yeah, yeah,
like old school ones. You don't see old school flip
flops much anymore, is that right? What may say the
old school that they're just the toe and the thing.
Like I feel like it's like Walmart. These are Walmart

(06:40):
flip flops. No, no, I think that there no not these,
but I think that got you about nine bucks. Yeah, no,
they're cool, but like, slides are kind of in right now,
so I guess that's a slides. I've seen them us
socks with the slides. I've seen people at the Apple
doing that. Flip flops is like an ultimate fashion disaster

(07:03):
where I'm from, but a very comfortable. I will wear
socks with slides only so I can slide my slides
off because I will not go barefoot on an airplane,
but I will go sock foot if I'm just sitting. Okay,
does that make sense, perfect sense to me? Yeah, yeah,
barefoot on an airplane. That sounds not barefoot, sock foot
sock foots fine, yeah everything else go with you like
good Yeah, I mean we're playing music again. It's pretty

(07:26):
hard to complain. Next week you go out with Brett
Aldridge on the Good Day tour. Yeah, I'm really looking
forward to that. Yeah. How long is set do you
get when you play with Brett? We have forty five minutes.
Oh that's like a whole set. It is, it's a
full show. This is actually the first tour I've done
in America opening where there's actually someone on before me,
So that's a novelty for me. It's a big step.

(07:46):
I love that. At what point do you play kiss Somebody?
It's funny, man, We've been playing around with that. So
I think the pandemic has been really good for one
of my songs in particular, maybe something to do with
the way people who have been spending their lockdown time.
And we used to play Somebody Lost because it was
the biggest song on the radio. Generally when you travel around,
people know it. But after the last eighteen months, day
Drunk is now by far the biggest song. Said, So

(08:08):
we finished with that and we played kiss Somebody a
little earlier. Give me a little verse and chorus of
kiss Somebody, alrighty, your former big old smash hit. Sometimes

(08:30):
you gotta drink about somebody that ain't gonna bring them back.
Sometimes crime this somebody we've all felt like, if it's

(08:51):
something that you gotta get over but you just can't
get over. Sometimes you gotta kiss somebody in the back
of a camera on up with a train. Times you
gotta kiss somebody on him in that street in the submarine.
Do you wish and you will wish somebody you don't
want to go home when it's closing time. If you

(09:12):
want to kiss somebody, baby, I as somebody you can
kiss like your hard he never been broken kind of
lifts at your lifts. Get your ass closed. I don't
know what you're going to because I want to kiss
somebody to nice, kiss somebody like you, kiss somebody like you.

(09:36):
I got the high harmony. I thought he was done,
and then I just don't body still. He never stops, Bob.
He's like somebody doing happen to kiss. Morgan Evans is
here right now. I saw you post the other day
and you were like, you can text me at this number.

(09:56):
It's on your Instagram, Briot. So I texted you. I
was like, hey man, you wanna go to lunch? And
you never text me back. Yeah. I texted that number
and said, do you ever you want to go to
lunch just to see will you under a different name
or something? No? No, I just said it's Bobby. But
that's a but if you text that number on your Instagram, yeah,
does that go right to your phone? Yeah, it's an
app on the phone. Yeah, So it's not your real number.
So I don't have your real number? Will you have

(10:17):
my real number? Two? Actually, so you could try the
I did try the app. I didn text the number, like,
hey man, I want to go to lunch and I
never heard from me on the app. Yeah that's right. Well,
maybe I need to dig back in there. Jump. If
someone calls, can they call you? It's not a call thing,
it's a text thing. But it's really cool. I find
it like it's very rewarding to be able to connect
on them all with people. This is what I would
like to do because this show is all about authenticity. Yeah,

(10:40):
and if you go to Morgan's Instagram, you can see
his text number. It goes to an app, but I'm
going to give you his real cell phone number. Everybody.
Oh yeah, we could really connect to one the more. Hey,
I want you to do something else for me for
a second, because I do want to talk about the
new song and get into the new song. Do you
need your pedal to play a little bit of day
Drunk or can you play it right there? I can

(11:00):
play it right here. Okay. I actually I've retired the
pedal you have? Yeah, okay, because the only time I've
ever seen you play daydrunk, was with the pedal. Yeah,
and I didn't tell you I was gonna ask you
to play day drunk? Right? Can you play us a verse?
Of course a day drunk? Oh yeah, of course. Um
here we are well here and here we go. We
bought that champagne from New Years. We got one bottle.

(11:20):
Let's pop it open. Baby, what you say still at
t shirt? You don't need the kittress because we got
plans to make. No plans today. Oh I'm thinking happy
hour on the hour in the kitchen, in the shower,

(11:40):
things and tipsy singing with me. Baby, Let's get a
little day drunk party with that shats on. Play bunch
of songs, sing along, get the words wrong, who gess?
Get day drunk, Get down while the suns up. Make
good good, look like it's day in the day and

(12:04):
it feels right when you drum, Dad run you and
you dad rump de rump. Are you done? Okayna follow
him At Morgan Evans Music, we'd like to hear you
tune live. I know you're about to tune. I want

(12:25):
an audience to hear what you're doing preparing for a song. Here, yeah, okay,
all right, go ahead tuning. Yes, So right now he's
put the phone on his knee and on the phone
it will tell you different letters. If your string hits
exactly right, it'll show up as that letter exactly is
a kind of a rough time when you use the
phone tuning. It's close enough kind of thing. Maybe seems smart, Morgan,

(12:46):
don't don't contradict me. And Morgan's gonna play his new
song Love is Real. And right now he's perfecting the strings.
It sounds way better when it's closely. Oh do you
hear that? Wow? Wow, that's a tuning for you. Guys,
will tune Wow, that is amazing. Morgan Evans is here.

(13:09):
You may know him by a couple of songs from
his past, for example, kiss Somebody sometimes you gotta kiss somebody.
Maybe day drunk, possibly Diamonds. So now you have this
new song, Love is Real, and I'm gonna have you
played the full song. I'm talking. I want you to
go from the first word of the end on all

(13:30):
the emotion from this song. All right, because you wrote this.
What happens you go into a room, do you have
the idea on your phone? Does somebody else come to
you with it? Tell me about this song. Yeah, I
had this title for a long time and I was
trying to find the right way to write it because, um,
you know, sometimes songs can get a little bit clever

(13:51):
and and and the cleverest, like it takes away from
the feeling of the song. Yeah, And I really just
wanted this to be um, just to straight sh airing
of a feeling when everything's right in the world. You know.
I feel like over the last year and a half,
I've wanted the good vibes and I just want to
share that. And for me, that's you know, the lyrics
and the bust of this song, which is a good
road trip with you go and feel in love. Yep.

(14:15):
You guys have a jeep uh Yeah, yeah, that's cool.
I have no follow up. It's like, yeah, that is good.
I just I just took the roof and doors off
it and all that the other day for the first time.
It's a good feeling. Yeah, that's cool. I love It's real.
This is it. This is Morgan Evans new single. He's
gonna play it for you. Let's go there, Feet on Fancy,

(14:46):
I Wind Sky, Bandanna and Your foot Jeans U D. D.
Chap they've been through the radio. In my hat, you
always st quick stop at a textical astec exit from

(15:08):
my eyes. Tain't topping a tool for Chico. I only smile,
eating like a polar road with time standing still. Love
is real and I could try you hand in mine

(15:30):
baby will go to we run at the road in
the restaurants out east week where I feel no one.
I always well, I am yours you all. My love
is read. Yeah. Love Israel. I am your you are mine.

(15:58):
Love is ree. Wow, there is Mogan. We were giving
it a second. We never know it's you. You might
jump back into it. I like that, man, that's that's
a really good song. I'd heard it already, but the
first time I heard it, I was like, that's a
really good song. Thanks man, you can probably tell us

(16:18):
the first time I've song that this morning. I appreciate it.
So bear with me. Would you mind just playing the
first line of that song again, just just as you did? Yeah,
the guitar line or the vocal line. The vocal line, yeah,
I don't know about it really. Guitar line is but
if vocal yeah, I just sing the first line for me,
just like it didn't. Bare Feet on a fancy high
scald say that with no music, like you're just saying

(16:41):
it to me some sort of test out of stuff. No, no, no,
just say it like you were talking sing it. No,
just say it bare feet on the bench, seat, highway
and the sky. Now there's an accent when he says.
If there's no accent when he sings Itevable, he's like
bear feet on a bench and it's like, hey, buyer

(17:02):
for you. However, your accent. That's crazy, that your accent,
because that's not on purpose, right, it's weird and that
Um I grew up singing American music, or I thought
it was that. But you know, even Keith up and
sounds American when he sings, you know, and even the
Beatles sound American window sing. I actually googled this one time,
so like you go on YouTube or whatever and there's
a guy on that and he explains that maybe the

(17:24):
American accent, the way that the American accent approaches valves
is more pleasant to the human ear, or something like that,
if you want to get technical. But I grew up
trying to sound like golf brooks here I am. Sometimes
though even Spice Girl songs they sound like they're speaking
American English. Or Brad from Three Doors Down has a
really thick Southern accent, but when he sings, you don't

(17:45):
hear that extreme right, So so basically music brings us
all together, the universal love. It really does. Yeah, that
sounds really good. When you play a live it's really good.
Have you ever tried to sing with your accent? Try
that riot, try that line? It's not good. Yeah, there's some.
There's some like legendary Australian country atists and rock and

(18:05):
roll artists that's seeing Australian accents and they and they
do it and it works for some reason. For me,
it doesn't feel feeling. Here's what I want to ask you.
You have the song love is Real? Which of these
do you believe is real? Do you believe that a
lot of these little spacecrafts that are showing up more
now than ever? Do you believe they're aliens? Do you
think aliens are real? Yeah? You think aliens are real

(18:26):
in these space Because here's my theory. Before I make
you commit to anything. Right, these guys all say Lunchbox
has no chance, no chance. You guys are coop who wait? Wait? Wait?
Is the question aliens are real or here on us.
Because here's the explanation. I say that because we're seeing
more and more of these unidentified aerial f they're calling
it now. Yeah, And I say, hey, if they're so
advanced and they don't want us to see them, we

(18:48):
wouldn't see them. There are our eyes or have these
cones in them that we can't see some things? Right,
animals have things in their ears. They can hear things
we can't. Yeah, there's nothing that says we would have
to we would be able to see, right, some life
form that is far more sophisticated than we are right now,
Do I believe there could be something? Yeah? Probably? Do
I think these little spaceships that we're seeing all the
time have aliens them? I think no, there because if

(19:10):
they didn't want us to see, we wouldn't. Yeah, So
with all that our aliens real on the clock. Well,
I mean, I'm inclined to agree with you with your
you're thinking that, Yeah, it's silly to like just say
there's definitely no aliens. Side, I say it's silly too,
because it's silly to say there's definitely nothing of something
you can't prove either way exactly. Yeah, right, But in

(19:31):
our opinion, the current aerial phenomenons, they're not carrying little aliens.
Do I think they have aliens in them? Probably not. Yeah.
What about love at first sight? Do you think that's
real at first sight? Yeah? I guess. Yeah. You have
to say that there's an inclination. You can definitely feel
an alimation. Let me tell you why I don't believe you.
I don't believe that. Okay, I believe that there is

(19:53):
first side of while that person is really hot and
we hit it off immediately, but sometimes it happens and
it doesn't work out. If that happens and it works out,
I think you retro assign. It's definitely a retro assignment.
Love at first sight people have more than a look though.
There's an energy people have too. When you look at
someone you can kind of look at me, you can
tell yeah there is Yeah. You can see in people's eyes,

(20:16):
the way they stand, the way they like open their
body towards whoever they're talking to you. There's a lot
of body openers though that I thought, that's a good
open body, but then end up hating you know, yeah, okay,
hate it first sight? Yeah. How about bigfoot? I don't
know much about Bigfoot? Do you guys not have a
big version of big Foot in Australia? Probably drop bears,

(20:37):
I think I talk about in Australia, right, what's that bears?
Full out of trace? It might have been an alcohol
marketing campaign at some point, so that's not a real thing.
Drop bears? Now, then I drop out of a trace.
There's actually no bears in Australia. Final question. I got
him here. This is the one I went. That's like
Koala bears work from Australia. Yeah, not like the big
This is the one though. This is the one. I

(20:57):
want to put you on the spot and your team's
gonna get uncomfortable, and eye's gonna go why is he asking?
And it's not political and it's not about masks, but
it's about do you think that I can beat up
with kangaroo because I've I've sat for a long time
that one on one me and a kangaroo, I can
beat it up because I'm smarter than the kangaroo. Right yeah,
I mean yeah, yeah, a thout. Somebody says, here's a
thousand bucks betted on the kangaroo in this room or me?

(21:20):
If we just put a big red one, like a
ten foot tall one, and you in this room. Well, yeah,
we're not doing a little one way. Good for me.
I'm about to really show out. Then if it's ten
foot tall, there's stay range anywhere from like five to
ten they're rich. Okay, then seven and a half feet,
let's go to the middle. Middle, a seven and a
half foot kangaroo. We're in a ring. You get and

(21:42):
they say, Morgan Evans, here's a thousand bucks. Did I
get to ask one more questions? That's whatever you want.
You think you can beat the kangaroo. Yeah, yeah, I'll
bet on you that, of course. Yeah, well you're not
gonna ask the kangaroo. Kangaroo can't talk, dummy. Yeah. So
that the kangaroos that you see in those fighting videos,
I didn't see them out because I grew up kind
of knew the coast, which is like most of Australia

(22:03):
and um, and we have the little, great cute ones
that you try not to hit, and I definitely whooped
those butts. We love that, a little great kangaroos, but
I do that like the pre limb, and then I'd
go out and whoop the big one. Yeah, okay, animals.
I'm like the biggest animal guy in the world, but
now I don't want to fight. I'm like the h

(22:24):
Logan Paul of beating the animals. I'm on YouTube. Okay, listen,
Morgan Evans is here. His new song is Love is Real.
I hope you stream it. I hope you're stream it
so many times that he just can't count the money
showing up in his mailbox. That's that's the goal, right, Yeah,
you're welcome. He will be out with Brett Eldridge on
the Good Day tour. Is there. He's on Instagram at
Morgan Evans Music. Is there anything I'm not saying that

(22:47):
you'd like for me to say? You've nailed it all
the way down to the kangaroos and thank you big quick? Yeah,
all right, that is all. It's the best bits of
the week with Morgan. Number two. We had eight new
artists who pitched his song to the show in a
pretty clever way. Now, Scuba, you do so much behind
the scenes stuff, Okay, And the whole point of bringing

(23:08):
you on is we're addihing some dirty behind the scenes stuff. Right, Yeah,
let's do it. I got it all. I want to
know what are some of the crazy things we've been
sent to the studio. Well, I mean this is definitely
one of them, like crazy cool, Like we've never had
someone pitch. I mean people pitch all the time. Bobby
mentioned songs to be on the radio, to come in
the studio, to perform, whatever may be. But no one's

(23:29):
ever pitched to be on the Friday morning dance party,
which doesn't seem like a crazy idea, but it is
because no one's ever done it before. Yes, and the
mail came as plaque in a bunch of firsts, all
the cookies. I started eating the cookies. Food is always
an easy one for us, right do you see food
and everybody's like, yes, food, especially if it's food that
has that is coming from a reputable place. No offense

(23:49):
to your homemade food, but I don't know where it's
come from. It's not FDA approved, it's not I don't
know where. I just don't want to eat. Yeah, it
was being cooked in your home kitchen is probably not
the best idea for Rusty. Yeah, I'm not saying we
would get sick, but we would get sick. Yeah, you
never know. Yeah, Okay, So food is a big one
in this moment. You know this artist, what he sent?

(24:10):
What are some other things I'm trying to think of
crazy things that have been sent to our studio. Well,
we had that one a while back and we kind
of dropped the stalker box that we got the y
That was a bad one. Yeah, that was a bad one.
This is a thing. Do you think our listeners should
send us things? I encourage it, yes, to a certain degree.

(24:30):
I think sending because people get fan mail like television
shows and other radio shows, usually letters and things like that.
But it's cool when somebody is such a such a
big fan of the show that they're willing to put
something out there that they've either created and made a
company they're a part of, or they just want to
give you a gift because they heard you talking about
a certain product, there's something that you want to try out,

(24:51):
and they send it anyways because they worked there, or
they're also a fan and passionate as well, and they
went and spent their own cash to buy us something
and send it to us with a cool little note
that explains why they did it. So I highly encourage it. Um,
but just never homemade food. Don't ever send that. This
is true, Yeah, so true. I know, like when I
started doing the Food Worlds, there were so many different

(25:13):
companies that started sending me like the new items to try,
and I was like, this is so cool. I get
it before it hits the shelves and then I like
get to try it. But then it's an awkward thing.
I'm like, it didn't taste very good. Yes, I don't
want to say like sounded cool and not great. Yeah,
good concept, but doesn't Yeah. Yeah, that's like the scary
part that you don't want to share it. But yeah,

(25:35):
that's like a that's an interesting thing. So like food,
if you're if you're trying to send stuff to the show,
we always love packaged food. Yes, um, if people come
and bring food from their company, like hey, I work
at First Watch and we're bringing buy some breakfast and
that was fantastic. Yes, that was Also it came from
a place. We know that they make it in a kitchen,
and that's not saying you know, that's saying your place

(25:58):
is in sanitary but they just have regulations they're following,
and you know it just it's different from getting my
aunt's food versus your food. Yes, this is true. Yea
or something that's very um like you know, like you
it made from the heart. You guys said, that's cool
stuff like that, and that's really awesome. We get paintings
or drawings, get tons of those. It's a really cool
Brenton Baker's field. Every year it gets with an artist.
I guess this is my first time experiencing it, and

(26:20):
they do like a hand drawn sketch of the show. Yes,
and it sits in Bobby's office and it's really cool.
And I remember getting that my first time here. It
was like in twenty nineteen at the end of the
year and that photo came in and they included me
on it because I was still kind of new and
it would hurt my feelings that they didn't or did
And there I was drawn. I've never seen myself drawn before. Yeah,
it's pretty cool. So like those unique kind of gifts,

(26:40):
I think are really special. And it just really goes
to show you that what we're doing people are connecting
and they love it and they're they're sending us gifts,
which is really cool. Yes, you can you believe too
that Like twenty nineteen was when you joined the show
the end of twenty nineteen and we were about to
be at the end of twenty twenty one. Yeah, do
you feel like that just like flew by, like even

(27:01):
the pack are stuck inside. It just flew by. It did,
but but in the moment it didn't. It didn't fly by,
especially because of a pandemic. I felt like that year
was almost ten years, Like it was a really long
time because we had to adapt our show in a
way that it's never had to do before. I mean,
radio in general and entertainment in general was as far
as how we did our show and put it together
with people in different locations and the technology and the

(27:24):
trials and tribulations of the technology and everyone in different
local I mean, it was just such a pain in
the butt. But it was cool because it kind of
put me in an uncomfortable place already being somewhere new,
but even extra uncomfortable because it was a new territory
that no one's really explored. So it was it put
me on my a game, and I liked it. But
it did feel like a really long time. Now, it

(27:45):
feels like it was pretty quick because you look back
out of you're like, oh my gosh, it was pretty fast.
But in the moment, it was time was gone by
really slow. Well yeah, and like when you know, everybody
was quarantine, everybody was stuck at their houses. It felt
like it felt everything felt very slow. But then like
I was looking at dates and I'm like, how is
it I'm already about in one month, I am turning
twenty eight years old. I felt like I just turned

(28:06):
twenty seven. Yeah, Like I don't feel like I have
that year. Yeah, if the whole year is almost a blackout, yes, yes,
so you just kind up an asterisk next to it
and nothing counter matter that year. No, And I don't
I don't understand, like it blows my mim. But that's
how I feel also too. I mean that that Brad
Paisley song that's like, don't blink. I'm feeling that now. Yes, yeah,
And they tell you when you're younger, they're like, don't blink,

(28:27):
it goes by really fashion Like, No, it doesn't like
this feels like it goes by slow, and when you're
a kid, it does. Yeah, But the older I get,
each year that goes past, I feel that way. I'm like,
this is moving far too closely, And now I get it.
Everybody yelled at me when I was younger and I
didn't listen. Yeah, and now I need to listen. And
then when you have kids, you then see it through them.
You're like, holy crap. One day they're an infant, then

(28:49):
they're a toddler, then they're three years old, and then
they're talking back to you, and then they're driving a car.
It's like, oh my god, I know time is on
this like quick roller coaster. Really is what it is.
I know, it's so crazy. What Okay, so you know
we're talking about life and random things, but what are
some segments that you wish we did more of on
the show or that we could do in the future,

(29:11):
more of like what we currently do. Yeah. So I
kind of want to do and I've want to do
this since I started, and Bobby and I've been talking
about trying this with a band coming up. We'll see
if it works. But I like having guests in the show.
It's great. It's fun for the show. It's fun for
us as fans of these artists to see them come
in and perform and do that kind of stuff. But
from a I'm looking at a business mind side, so

(29:32):
as an affiliate. So an affiliate basically is somebody that
carries our show in their local market. So let's say
you live somewhere like Poughkeepsie, New York. Chances are our
competitor is a very small town morning show and doesn't
have access to the guests that we have, especially in person.
They may connect with an artist, but it'd be over
the phone or zoom or whatever. But we have the
ability to have them in studio and do more with them,

(29:53):
play games, play music, all kinds of fun stuff. And
one thing I've always didn't like, I've always disliked I'm
trying to say the word hate very much. My grandma
always says, don't say hey, so you don't like hates
a very strong mean word. Hey. I'm with your grandma.
I agree. So I'm really trying to implement that my life,
not saying the word hate very much. But I interviews
always kind of perturbed me because it was like a

(30:16):
quick wan band, thinking man. They come in, ask a
bunch of questions and then they're out there. Isn't You're
not They're not really immersed into the show, And I
feel like the best kind of interview is where you
kind of weave them into the fabric of our show,
whether it be they're here for a full hour, or
they're here for half the show or even the full show,
almost like a guest co host, and they're here and

(30:37):
they're just part of the show, the band or the artist,
and in between we work it in where they do
some performances, play some games, but it's basically a whole
day with like let's say Kelsey Ballerini, and she's here
from top to bottom and she hangs out, she's part
of the topics, talks to callers, we do an interview
stuff in between, and plug whatever she's plugging. We play
some performances from her live in the studio, almost like

(30:59):
a full verse of day of that artist, where I
feel like they'll get the most out of it too,
because they're being plugged the entire day, So whatever they're
trying to promote, it's a full day's promotion. So I've
always wanted to do something like that well, and I
think we've we've touched on it a little bit, Like
we when we had our you know, our anniversaries for
the show of being in Nashville. I think we had

(31:19):
Jaco and play for a full hour. We had Thomas
read on for a full hour or two, something like
that and then like when Lunchbox was gone because Baby
had guest co hosts. Yeah, so I think we've touched
on it, but not quite as big as what you're
talking about. I'm talking about I think this is a
special broadcasted show with just that person. Lunchbox was kind
of like the first tiptoe into it. So I was like, Okay,

(31:42):
me and Bobby were like, we got to put someone
in that seat. How do we do it? Who do
we do it with? How long are they here for?
Like Todd Crisley was funny, like that was one that
was random and a funny backstory on that. So when
I was booking that one, at first, it was like,
I don't know if it could be kind of controversial.
Should he come on? Should not come on? And so
I was talking to his manager, who then forwarded me
just to him, I have a cell phone number now,

(32:03):
so I was talking to Todd school Yeah, and it
was kind of like we didn't know if he was
going to come in the next day, and it was
kind of left it out like Okay, I'll see what
I can do. And then the next morning, I get
a phone call from a number I don't recognize. I
didn't save it my phone, and it calls again, and
it calls again, and it calls again, and finally I answered,
I go what he goes. It's Todd Chrissy. I'm out
the front door, And I was like, you're here, because like, yeah,

(32:25):
I've been out here for thirty minutes. You're gonna answer
the door or not? That stassy Southern accent. Yeah, yes,
And he's randomly shut up and he hung out for
the whole I would say, at least half the show. Yeah,
he was here for a long time, for a really
long time. It was pretty cool. But so that was
kind of like the tiptoe into trying out that long
that plan of later down the road of doing like
a full guest for a full show. And I feel

(32:46):
like it kind of worked. It was kind of fun.
It was cool. They were part of the conversation. Yeah,
I love it. I love that idea. I think too,
like something I've always loved when we do him as
all of our crazy challenges. Yes, we used to do
like the Crazy Uper which we don't anymore because nobody's
uber scores can handle it. Yeah, but like those things
that we did, like different, different challenges are different, random

(33:09):
things like lunchbox fake proposed to me in public hum
on Valentine's Day, Like random things like that was always
like super funny to me, and we'll do them sometimes now,
like the World Sours Candy, which we did this week,
and yeah, you know, I'll hint that comes later. But
it's fun to have people like that that you see

(33:30):
that you have them a pedestal and only see them
as a performer, But it's fun to like take back
those layers and just let them be human for a moment.
I feel like they would enjoy because they get to
just kind of be part of a show and you
get to hear them just be themselves and give their opinions,
and it would be kind of fun to see it.
I love that. And then going in a break, they
play us in a break kind of thing, almost like

(33:50):
a SNL type thing, like all right, Thomas Rhett play
us into the stops. Yes, And I mean, honestly, sew
up your alley to even suggest X it just sounds
Hollywood esque. Yes, yeah, but I love it. It's such
a good idea, but totally understand like what you're going
for and the logistics. It's a pain of the bup
because then you got to get everyone to agree on it,

(34:10):
and the management in the label and the time constraints.
So that's been the biggest hurdle is trying to find
somebody who can dedicate three plus hours to do this
with us. Yeah, because that's not their full time job exactly. Yes. Yeah.
Oh man, well, hey listeners, you never know that could
happen in our future. Yes, And I have a television
show idea that I want to work with some people
here on the show that I'm not gonna say anything yet,

(34:32):
but it's going to be something that's kind of pivoted
on a bit we've done or I wanted to do,
going on your theme of something I want to do
that you and I have talked about on this podcast
once before a year ago, that I want to turn
into a television show and I think it's gonna be
freaking awesome. What Yeah, Okay, so you're not gonna tell
me here because like you can't reveal it, but I
want to know after this, so curious. Yeah. I love

(34:53):
that see scubas chief over here coming up with ideas.
And this is the behind the scenes that you really
need to hear because this is how his mind work,
Like he's sitting there coming up with ideas and deciding, Hey,
what can I pitch to Bobby to go on the show? Yeah? Right,
Like this is really behind the scenes. This is what
Scuba thinks and does during the show. Yes, like all
the big ideas like how can we make not only

(35:13):
how can we make it work for the show, but
how can we make money for the show? How can
we get a sales tie and if we need to
to pay for our things like hun Day for example,
for Eddie's walk, they help pay for all the stuff
to make it happen. So yeah, big ideas, big ideas
coming from a guy sitting in a cookie Monster shirt
right now. Just bet y'all a picture of what's happening

(35:34):
right now during this podcast. I love them, but it's
just like big idea with my Cookie Monster sir, And
who's the other who's the little red guy with Hello? Yeah?
I was like, why is that not coming to me? Oh? Man? Okay, Well,
y'all can hear this moment where a new artist pitched

(35:56):
song to the show to be played in the Friday
morning dance party and we listen into it, you know,
see the response, See what happened? Is he gonna come
on the show? What happened? Number five? I get a
lot of stuff sent to me all the time, like
please play me on the air. Please look at my
artists who I just signed. Even sometimes at a valet
will give me something, or a waiter at a restaurant,
and heck, got brought some of them in the studio before.

(36:18):
But I've never had someone pitched to me just to
be on the Friday morning dance party. Oh that's fun.
Which happened here? This guy sent up a bunch of cookies.
What he sent up a whole frame picture that says
for your consideration for the Friday morning dance party, Aaron.
His song is called Lonely Drum. That's very original, right, yes, clever?

(36:40):
Here are the points on it. Is this double platinum
Canadian country radio smash twenty seven plus million streams global
line dance Sensation Okay from Warner Music Canada and Reviver Wow.
So I love the fact that he went right for
the dance party and it's like I'm not even gonna play,
like I just want in the party. That puts everybody
in a good mood. And he as a plaque. So

(37:01):
he sent this up. I haven't heard the song yet.
I thought we would do it together. Okay, Ray, do
you have it with you? Let's hear Aaron Goodvin. Let's
but if it doesn't fit the dance party, I mean,
if it's a sad song and they're talking about sear
you know, giving me tears. But it says it's a
line dancing sensation. Maybe it's a really slow line dance. Okay,
you know, let's hear Lonely Drunk because it sounds sadly drum?

(37:25):
What if it's only one drum? Okay, here we go. Okay,
I'm beating on my lonely drum girl. Don't you want
to come over? I'm halfway through shardoning and I don't
plan on stage sober. You can bring your hair guitar.

(37:52):
Don't let this not get any older. I'm beating on
my lonely drone girl. Don't you want to come over? Him?
Getting in your car? Make it my living room. I

(38:18):
hope you get here. I mean you playing over. We
gotta say hit boys. You know, my lonely druma might
get drunk and sink. Here you looking well? You can
be my bead box. I'll render smoky from schooling and

(38:46):
if your father the jagger shot, I might just do
the hole keep poking and my laughing. Yeah, we all
my lonely DRUMA might get trunk and shank. Here of
you bro bro ru ru rum come on. So yeah,

(39:21):
I love it. Here's what I'm gonna say. It will
for sure be on the Friday Morning Party this week.
That's my new favorite song, though, dude, that's good Boom
room room roomber room, dang, dang, Aaron Goodman, lonely drum.
I'll tell you what, get him in next We get

(39:42):
him in next week. You can play this song. He's
in the dance party this week. I'll mix him in
and then maybe we get him in the studio next week. Okay, yeah,
brought cookies. Boom, well he sent him up here. Okay
yeah boom booth you young. Okay, Aaron Goodman, you got
yourself a date, a dance party and on the show.

(40:03):
It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two.
It's always a really funny moment when Lunchbox decides to
take over our voicemail line because he acts like the
voicemail but it is actually him talking and he confuses
a crap out of our listeners, and I truly feel
bad for him, but we get a really solid laugh
out of it. So if you need a good laugh today,

(40:25):
sit here, listen to this. I promise you'll at least
laugh once. Number four, that's good. If you call our
show when we're not on the air, the voicemail picks up,
it's eight seven seven seventy seven, Bobby, and it's like
me going, hey, leave a message when I hear but
we'll play it on the air maybe. So sometimes Lunchbox
will come in here and just answer the phone and

(40:45):
act like the voicemail. Yeah, I just act like a
voice recording, like hello, you've reached the Bobby Bone Show voicemail.
And I tell him you can leave a message, and
I make them do a bunch of dumb stuff and
they do it. It's really great. Here we go. Here's
clut number one. Thank you for calling the Bobby Own Show.
This is our voicemail. Unfortunately we are getting a high
number of calls right now and couldn't get to your call.

(41:06):
Please leave a voicemail out to the Beep and maybe
we'll play it back on the air. Beep Morning Studio
This is Rachel from Nashville, and I just had a
thought a potential flaw in the lunchbox pulling the rock
bit in downtown. There is no flaw lunchboxes. Lunchbox is amazing.
Lunchbox is amazing. There is no flaw. Hello. If you

(41:30):
are satisfied with your message, press one. I'm so confused.
Is there anything else you'd like to say to the show?
Oh man, I had my voicemail all planned out, but
now it's confused. If you are satisfied with your message,
press one. If you'd like Eddie to send you a
picture of his bald head, press it's wrong with you?

(41:54):
That's so stupid and so funny. She was really going
in on something too. I wonder what the flaw wasn't
our out? Why is it okay? Here's that's funny. Here's
another clip. Thank you for calling the Bobby Bone Show.
You have reached our voicemail. If you'd like to leave
a message for Bobby, say nerd alert. If you like,

(42:16):
you're selected Bobby at the beep, leave a message for Bobby. Bobby.
I would like to reash my husband DM Miles a
happy birthday. Would you like to sing him happy birthday
on this message before we hang up. Yeah, you sing
happy birthday after the beat, beep, Happy birthday, Happy birthday,

(42:39):
dear Ben Mouse. I loved you, I do, thank you
and have a great day. I can't believe how are
they believing that's funny? What time of the day do
you do that? Yeah? Whatever? I would also believe it
too if I called, but the technology is not there. Well,

(43:02):
but when he does beep in his own voice after
the beat, it's the best bits of the week with
Morgan Number two, we had Josh Grayson on the show
this week. Such an awesome moment because he played so
many of his big hits and he has so many
good ones. We also learned that Bobby had him play

(43:22):
as a surprise to Caitlin during his wedding rehearsal, and
so that was a really fun moment for us to
hear all about that him perform. But really, I just combined.
I was gonna say, Skeeve, your new nickname was Skeeve,
skee Steve, Steve Scuba. It's because part of me wants

(43:44):
to say Steve the whole thing. Okay, any noise that
has an S on it, I'll respond to, Yes, scuba.
That's what we're gonna go with you right now. Is
there any news that's happened in your personal life that
you just want to share, Like, let's share some fun
life updates things have been happening. My daughter is now
walking or trying to walk, which I've noticed because anyone

(44:05):
that has multiple children, you'll know that the first kid
kind of does whatever it happens when it happens, But
when you have a second kid, they're trying to compete
with the first child. Not even just like they're doing it,
it's just happening. They're just because they see the other
kid doing more, because they're older and they can walk
and talk. So my daughter is at the point now
where it's scary, but she's trying to walk, and it's
she's only I think eight months old, which is hella

(44:27):
young to start walking. Okay, now, how far apart are
your two kids? My son E turns four years old
in March, so he's about three and a half years old,
and then my daughter is eight or nine months old,
so there's a good two plus years difference, and she's
competing with him, yes, yeah, oh yeah, that's a rough
competition there because he's got a few years on her totally,
but like he didn't start walking until about a year

(44:49):
and a half. So for her to be coming on
this early, I mean, doesn't seem make a big deal,
but it's pretty incredible to see my daughter pull herself
up and start to take a step. I'm like, oh
my god. And she you know, she's like maybe a
few inches off the ground. It's weird, it's ready to go.
She's like, I just need to start moving with my brother.
Yea what it sounds like. And she she's the youngest obviously,
so I do feel like to being the youngest. I

(45:12):
am the youngest of three sisters, well the youngest of four,
you get what I mean. Yeah, I always did things
faster because I saw them doing everything, and I just
wanted to hang out with my sisters and I wanted
to do everything they did, even if I was, you know, ten,
You look up to them. Do you want to be
like them? You want to be what they do and everything? Yeah?
I get it. Do you feel like your son is

(45:34):
like very involved with your daughter. He's a kind of
just like ignoring her at this point, Like where are
they at and their sibling relationship? Oh, he's been in
love with her from the moment he met her. Yeah,
he's at the point now where he's trying to pick
her up and carry her, which is which is scary.
Not strong enough for the yet for that. But he
does lift her off the ground and she moves. But
he gets to the point you're like, whoa, whoa, let me,
let me, let me step in here. But I appreciate that.

(45:56):
I assume you're trying to do and I appreciate that.
But no, don't I love that. Yeah, it's pretty cool. Okay,
cool little sibling relationship going on. Okay, and the daughter
starting to walk. What else we got going on in
your life? I slightly wrecked my truck and I was
depressed for a solid Oh boy, big blue truck, big
blue truck. Yeah yeah, sua Steve again painting another picture,

(46:16):
drives a jacked up blue truck that barely fits in
our studio parking garage. Yeah, barely barely in these parking
garages I drive into. I see the clearance and I'm
looking at it. I feel like it's hitting the roof
of my car all these garages. Yes, it's well, it's huge. Yeah, okay,
So did you always want to lift a truck or
did you always have one? No, I've always wanted a

(46:38):
big truck. Okay, I've had like, I've had nice sizes
like jeeps or trucks in the past, but never one
like this. Okay. And when did you get this one
that I got lifted and everything right when I moved
here at the end of twenty nineteen. Okay, So you
didn't have in California like you moved to the South
and you're like, here we go, jacked up druck. Yeah.
I had a toy to Prius when I first moved here.
I still have it. But it was like every day

(46:58):
was war. I got my car, and every day I
was dodging bullets, but these bullets for other cars that,
by the way, I drove the speed limit if not faster,
so there's no excuse for you to come over and
cut me off or flip me the bird or honk
at me as if I'm going slow like most previous drivers.
I was not. I'm going fast. I'm going with the
flow of traffic if not faster. But they still would
come at me like I'm a magnet, and they just

(47:19):
for some reason, most big trucks want to run me
off the road. They were piste off of me for nothing.
So I was like, man, I can't have this preous anymore,
as much as this is saving a ton of money
and gas, I gotta get a truck. Apparently, okay. So
it was a combination of you always wanting one and
then needing You didn't want to be bullied by those
rivers on the road anymore. Yeah, exactly, okay, and you
almost wrecked it, kind of wrecked it. Well happen. I
did wreck it, but not as bad as you would

(47:41):
think it'd be, but it was enough to where and
now I have a boo boo in my car and
every time I see it, I just get so depressed
and so sad. Well happened. So I signed up for
a gym membership, and I haven't been to a gym,
and you know, since the pandemic started, so it's been
a well over a year. And I was my first
day going to the gym. I'd had a really bad week,
stressful here at work, a lot of crap going on
personal life, work life, and I was like, okay, I

(48:02):
sign up for the gym last week. Let me just
go blow assom steam. I used to love doing that
when I was living back in La had a long day,
I go to the gym like most of us, great
stress reliever, totally. I'd rather do that than other things.
So I was like, let me go to the gym
and get back in the great shape and this will
be this is day one. I'm so excited to get there.
Oh no, this is not good. And then let me
preface this. My son likes to when we get to

(48:24):
our house. Before I pulled into the driveway, he's like, hey,
I want to drive, so I and if I don't,
it's he's he's throwing a fit and I don't feel
like dealing with it. I just get in out of
his little car seat, I put in my lap and
basically let him hold the wheel as I drive forward
in the driveway, which is like ten feet. Okay, so
so then, but then it usually ends up with him
sitting there for a moment while it's parked. He pushes

(48:45):
a bunch of buttons, messes with stuff, and then the
next day I try to reset everything back to where
it was. Well, this week, I was mentally not here.
He pushed a bunch of buttons, and one of those
buttons he pushed is the sensor button where it tells
you if you're getting too close to something. It's a
big truck, and it's thous and whistles of the truck. Yes. Yeah,
you get close to anything, whether you're turning lanes or
if you're parking, it goes off. It has like a

(49:07):
loud beeping noise, and as it gets closer to what
it's about to hit, it goes off to where the
point you're like, oh my god, I better stop, I'm
gonna hit something. Well, he had pushed that button and
now I don't have that sensor. Didn't realize you didn't
have that sense. Yes, yes, and you're relying on it
at this point. Yes. As I'm backing into a parking
spot at the Y downtown and it's a very tight garage,
terrible garage, terrible garage. It's the worst parking situation. And

(49:31):
I'm going to park my car and this guy who's
whipping around, who's leaving, who didn't even actually pulled into
the garage to just whip around and leave, and so
he's making me panic and freak out because I'm trying
to park as fast as I can't because he's honking
his horn and making me speed up, and I'm just like, dude,
just give me am over here, are you back up
and go another way? But now I feel the pressure
of him and the stress of the job in life,

(49:51):
and I'm backing up, and all of a sudden there's
no sensor happening, And all of a sudden, next thing
I hear is the wors sound. Yes, And I looked
at my right mirror and I'm like, oh crap. The
right side of my car is in like basically like
married into and like just pressed up against a solid

(50:13):
concrete column. And I'm like, oh God, okay, So I
can do one of two things. I can continue going
and see if that's any better, or I can stop
and then pull back out. And maybe I got lucky
and I pull back out. That sound is giving me
so much anxiety. And I didn't even have to spy
and I'm like, no, it didn't go the way I

(50:34):
wanted it to go, So let me just go ahead
and fix my parking job. Park and I'll walk out
and take a look at it. And as I get
out to go look at it, and I can see
the driver's side rear like where the truck bed is,
there's this massive, like probably six inch dent into the
side of my truck. Oh no, and the blue paint
is scraped and the black thing that half of my

(50:54):
wheel is scraped. And I just immediately feel this like
massive amount of depression just why over my entire body.
And I'm like, I just sign up for this gym
membership to feel good about myself. It did not make
me feel good about myself. No, is this a sign
that I shouldn't be going to the gym during the pandemic?
Should I just cancel this damn thing and go home?
Did you end up going into the gym? I went

(51:14):
into the gym, and I like and I went hard,
like the hearts have ever gone. I probably made you
feel better. I felt a little bit better until I
got back out to the truck. I saw my dent again,
and I'm like, oh my god. And so then I
like try to look at it and see if I
can push the dent out some, which I did. I
pushed them to dent out, but it's still dent, and
it's still scratched, and the paint still scratched, and so
now it's just like for me, it's just it's I

(51:35):
know it doesn't. It's visible, but it's not that visible.
But it's visible to me because my truck was perfect
before that, before the guy rushed me, before my son
turned off all my sensors, it was a perfectly beautiful truck.
It can still be beautiful again. You just have to
pay to get it fixed, right, Yes, And I don't
feel like paying to get it fixed, yeah, because it's
gonna probably be a couple hundred because it sounds like
it hit a few different parts of your truck. Yeah,

(51:57):
if not a couple of thousand because of where it hit,
and they might have to replace some of that. I
don't know. And so I bought paint because it's custom paints,
Cavalry blue. So I bought the paint from Toyota to
see if I can do it myself. And I bought
that like a month and a half ago. And so
i've been back to the gym yet then. So I've
been to the gym that fixed my freaking truck in
almost two months. Dang. So I'm still broken. I still

(52:19):
love your personal Live update, but I'm sad for you now. Yeah,
it's still depressing when I see it now. I have
family Antennis week visiting. They're like, oh, it's a beautiful truck.
And they go to see the other side and they go,
what happened here? And I'm like, oh, yeah, just blame
it on the other dude in the parking garage. Yes,
And if I ever see that guy again, I'm gonna
freaking ring his damn there I do. I mean, parking

(52:40):
garages don't make sense to me. Yeah, in what way?
Because I understand that they have to have all those
nice little concrete blocks in it to keep it holding
up right, But you can't tell me there wasn't some
smart structure engineer out there that could have put together
a parking garage that didn't need that, yes. Or put
the poles in a place where it doesn't affect the
park yes, put it towards the back or somewhere else.

(53:02):
The parking garages that have one like every few stalls,
I'm like, I don't understand we're really at this point
in technology that y'all haven't figured this out yet, that
this isn't happening. Yeah, so you can't put it so
many people I've I've ran into a cinder block in
a garage before, Thank goodness, I drove the jeep. So
all it did was back into my tire. Party didn't
do anything, you know, those tires are like harmless. Yeah,

(53:24):
but those cinder blocks. I know just about just about
every person that I know has had that instant happen
where they hit it and they scrape it or something
something happens to their car pull on, like personal car accident. Totally.
You misjudged when you're pulling in or you're pulling out,
or someone like with me was rushing me and I
feel the pressure to rush. Yeah, I know. It sucks. Yeah,

(53:45):
I don't understand. That's one thing in life that every
time I pull and you have to do it. In
Nashville so much, there's so many parking garages. Every time
I pull into one, I'm like, how have we not
figured this out yet? And then I see new ones
getting built, I'm like, we still haven't figured it out. Nope.
And you see the paint scrapes all over the side
of like, yeah, apparently this is a problem. Well in
the concrete, like hey, maybe you can put like mats
around it, you know, yeah, or its sort of like

(54:06):
rubber or something where it kind of just bounced off
it and maybe just a little bit lessens the blow
because let's be honest, that concrete ain't going nowhere. Yes,
you run into anything moving, No, not at all. So yeah,
I'm sorry, Steve. So one good life update and one
crappy life update, Yang so good. No one was harmed,
I wasn't hard. I'm still alive. It's possessions, but it

(54:28):
just sucks because I spent a decent amount of money
on it, and it was something I was proud and
happy to have, and now it's got this this tomato
mark on its birthmarker. Well, you know, it doesn't help
add to the stress of your life. So I hear you,
and it sucks. Yeah, but you are okay and everything's okay.
That's the way I got to look at it is
that there's the positive ending to this is I'm alive. Yes,

(54:50):
would have been much worse, trust me, and Nashville, you
could have been in a much worse car accident today
on the way to work. I was going to get um,
I was getting a coffee in the morning and I'm
coming in and and you probably had this happened to
you many different time, especially here in Nashville. People just
forgot how to drive, and so I'm going down it's
a major street. There's two lanes on my side, two
lanes on the other side, and then you got the
turn lanes in the middle. Well, this guy is coming

(55:12):
out of a gas station. I have a green light,
so I'm going straight. This guy cuts across from the
gas station on the far left side, cuts across his traffic,
and then it's starting to come into my lane, but
there's cars in that turn lane so he can't see him.
And he comes all way over and makes that turn.
And I have a truck, so I'm like, well, I
got I need to utilize the sidewalk. Oh my gosh,
you did not drive on this side, because he's coming

(55:34):
over and he's aren't taking the first available lane, which
in general his maneuver is illegal because he's crossing traffic
and then crossing w llow lines and coming over to
my side of the road, and then instead of getting
them the first available lane and I could have gone
to the right side and missed him, he's coming straight
into it and then making his turn with his crappy
old car and then coming into my lane. And I'm like, well,
I've got one option here, I can or two options.

(55:55):
I can hit him and then we have to deal
with this, or I can drive on the right side
of the road, which happens the sidewalk in the media,
and that's over there. So I immediately I like honk
my horn, and then I drive onto the unto the
curb and onto the sidewalk and I just keep driving,
then get back on and keep going. So I almost
got into a massive accident today. That's like some fast
and furious thing where you see him driving on the
sidewalk and they're hitting all the like nailboxes and stuffing,

(56:17):
and they're just keep going totally. And then this is
the spot where pedestrians are usually walking too. So I
just happened to be lucky there wasn't a pedestrian in
the sidewalk, so I was able to get up and
go over and get around. I wrote my window down.
I was like, what the hell down? And then she
like slowed down and like kind of try to avoid
me because he wasn't sure what I was gonna do.
I was gonna do anything. I was just pissed. Yeah,
And if you live in Nashville, you definitely have a
road radge. I don't think you can live in the

(56:38):
city and not have a road radge. Yeah, any big
city for that matter. I'm sure most of them are
like that. Yeah. Oh man, well you want to go
out on a high note. I have a good personal
life moment with your share. You're getting married, you're pregnant,
I stray there, don't you know you're not supposed to
do that or women that are not married. No, And

(57:01):
now that it is now, dad, my dog Remy is
now a therapy dog. Oh okay, so you can take
them as I'm sorry, he right, sorry, sorry about it's
because she has a beard and eyelashes. So yeah, yeah,
so she got um. She passed evaluation. We did like

(57:21):
six weeks of training once a week, and she had
already been like trained prior to this. But now she's
she went through training to be the officially a therapy dog,
and the evaluation she passed it. And so that means
I can take her to her and I together. I'm
not giving her way. I posted this and you would
have thought I was giving away my dog, And I
was like, do you guys realize how much I loved

(57:41):
my dog? Yeah? Well you think I would ever do that? Yeah?
I thought I was gonna ask you are you gonna
lend out her services to other people? No, So it's
like her and I as a therapy animal like team.
We can go to hospitals, retirement homes, schools, like whenever
tragedy happens or whenever people need like some joy in
their life, like we're rom at homes will be a
big one for us because Remy really does well with

(58:04):
elderly people. She loves on them and she's perfect size
for them and just kind of like make them happy. So,
like coming up in like a week and a half,
we have an event to go to where we're gonna
go visit some nurses who are on the front lines.
That's pretty cool. Yeah, I get like almost like a
thirty minute break of like, yeah, that's really cool. So yeah,

(58:26):
super fun. I'm really excited about because I've been wanting
to volunteer again and this is the perfect way to
do it because Remy loves humans. Oh yeah, and you
love Remy. So you get to hang out Remy. Yeah,
we get to hang out with her. That's like a
win win, Yeah, like she we During our evaluation, they
make you go through all these tests situations, right, like
if you're in a hospital or like all these people
are coming up to you and remy. She had like

(58:47):
six different people up to her in the evaluation, and
this dog rolled over and was like, pet me, everybody,
I love you all, like not even afraid of anything.
No anxiety. Of course they're worried about that. And if
the dog snaps or whatever. Yeah, and she no, she's great,
Like she doesn't do great with toddlers, and like, as
long as I know that, that's all that really matters.
So that's why she does really good with the elderly
because they don't move very fast. She does not like

(59:08):
people that don't move very from us. She doesn't well
with that. But if they have a lot of energy,
so she's like, no, it's like dogs that have too
much energy and toddlers that move very fast. She's like,
I'm like an old soul, please leave me alone. I
get that. That's pretty cool. Yeah, that's really special. So
you can fly with her too, I imagine. Right, No,
so that's just service dogs, okay, god, yeah, so no,
it was it was more of just the thing that

(59:29):
we could go volunteer and do stuff that's really cool
together to bring some some joy to people. Because again
she's beard in an eyelashes, like that's automatically gonna make
people smile. That's really cool. Yeah, I like that little
personal life update. That's gonna be really fun. Yeah yeah,
making people happy. So we had a good one for you,
a bad one for you, and a good one for you. Yeah,
that's a nice little sandwich. I don't think I have

(59:50):
any bad ones, and I don't think we need to
end on a bad note. I think you did that
for I think we're there. I think we're good. Oh
my gosh. Okay, Well, thanks for sharing, Thank you for
vulnerable in this moment. Good bye. Yes, I appreciate it,
no problem, Jerry. Your trials in tribulations of your life,
Oh yeah, there's plenty of those. Oh well, you guys
can hear right now. Josh Grayson. He performed some awesome

(01:00:13):
songs of his and we talked about so many different things,
including him performing at Bobby's wedding rehearsal. So check this
out number three on the Bobby Bones Show. Now, Josh Grayson, Josh,
how are you, Bud? I'm doing well, man, how are you?
It's been I guess a month and a half since
I've seen you. Congratulations again, out of well, thanks man.
So what happened was just for those at home that

(01:00:36):
are playing the home version of this game, is that
my wife loves Josh Grayson. When she was to she
said she was going to create a new highwayman. She
put Josh Grayson in him and she would always sing
his songs. And once I put on Instagram of Kaitlin
sing in one of his songs and he replied back
and I said, you know, i'd be really cool to
have Josh Grayson surpriser. So it's kind of hard to find.

(01:00:56):
We emailed and we finally tracked you down, and Josh
showed up at our rehearsal dinner and played and oh yeah,
so you know, there was so much going on and
I think you but I just, you know, publicly like
you didn't have to do that. We didn't pay you.
You know. I just was so grateful that you would
show up and do that for us because it was

(01:01:17):
really special to her. So again on a public stage here,
I just really appreciate that. No problem. I appreciate you
all thinking to me, and I'm glad I could help
out comes out he plays, we're all singing along. It's
a good moment. Huh sounds great. Yeah, So I was
thinking about you because you were a marine and then
you got into music. And I think like Craig Morgan
was in the service before he got into music. When

(01:01:39):
you were in the Marines, were you playing music? Actually?
I was here and there, and uh, you know, it's
it's it's kind of like an unspoken thing. Really. You
don't know how the guys are gonna take it when
you're in the barracks or anything like else like that.
But I guess in boot camp it kind of started
when things were kind of really hard and people are
kind of missing home and stuff like that. I was
the kind of caught me singing just to kind of

(01:02:01):
calm myself down, and the next thing, you know, I
would be asked to sing, like at the end of
the night while everyone was laying in their rack trying
to get to sleep and calm down. And so that's
what you know, I would do pretty much the rest
of boot camp, and it just kind of snowballed into
there as far as intertwined with the military. Did they
get you a guitar or did you just sing acapell?
Like it was just it was just acapella. The whole time.

(01:02:22):
Like I grew up, I grew up out outside of Detroit,
so I learned how to sing off motown music, r
and b oldies music, and then I got into country
music at a at a very young age, and up
there in Michigan, you know, in the mid nineties, before
it really kind of took off, it was kind of
a different thing. But uh so I would sing like,
you know, like the Boys to Men stuff and things
like that in the in the barracks until it kind

(01:02:44):
of transitioned and more people started telling me they wanted
some country stuff. So did you get like a singing nickname,
like all right, singing boy, all right, Johnny Singer? Like
did you have a mill like a singing nickname in
the military. Not in the military, to be honest with you,
but one of the things that a former label used
to do to kind of embarrassed me because they know
that I don't like like attention, like like immediate attention

(01:03:06):
like that in public. Because every time I used to
go somewhere radio stuff used to say the singing Marine.
You used to open the doors and like just say
that really really loud. So I guess I'd probably be
the only nickname attached to that as a singing Marines,
but they wouldn't call you that why you're in the Marines,
because then you're just exactly singing us exactly. There you go.
I do want to talk about your new single in
a second, but if you wouldn't mind, and I know

(01:03:28):
we asked you to do this at the at the rehearsal,
would you give us a verse and a chorus of
nothing to Lose? Yeah, it's just amatiya. Come on, I
can't keep up just trying to sing along with it
because it's so fast and it's just like about there
have to be times where sometimes you get off tracking
to start making stuff, making up sounds that ever happen.
Are you pretty much got it? I usually do this song.

(01:03:50):
I usually do this song at the end of the
show because everyone's drunk by the time they get there,
so they don't realize if I've messed up any of
the words or not. But you know what, that's the
one song that surprisingly I have not messed up any
of the words. Well, I'll be day because my GRANDMAA says,
here he is Josh Grays and give us a person.
Of course, here we go. This is nothing to lose.

(01:04:23):
He was being time downtown breakdowns for time to time.
Any times. He was like a pretty fine real light,
green light go on fight up side downtown, So should
can meet around time Shun didn't go in news she
can win Jones and Drew and feeling good if you would,
Oh yeah, well she moved. She's got me ron in
dun and allowed you shut breaking one natural big fred
you can buy now. She's got me fruity tied up,

(01:04:45):
tip down anyway out. I've got nothing lose there it is,
it's not going along right now. I'll be like what
you should have seen lunchbox's face. He was like, what
can you do that much slower? Like could you slow
it way down? And almost do it as a ballad?
Go ahead there all He was noontown, downtown, brigtoime, summertown, bonertime, anytown.

(01:05:10):
She was looking pretty foundin really loud green loud go
on fighting sound downtown. She was shicking me all around.
I was tuned in going new yor single in June
June drew and feeling goody if you even that is fast,
even the slow version. So you know you mentioned and

(01:05:31):
I mentioned too that you're working on new music. You
have this new single, I'm gonna play some a love
like right now. You got that five out, Georgia's Son
got the heat, You got that sweet like Mop and

(01:05:56):
Gig got the beat, Give me that half be have
a feeling every damn you got it though. You got me? Yeah,
you got me. I never had a little black me
A motown battle over came out of summer. See that

(01:06:17):
feels like you know, I'm gonna sha me to sound crazy? True?
You ever had a little back back. I'm always curious
because you wrote the song when you go into the

(01:06:37):
room with these other guys, you know it was this
idea when it was brought in if it was by you,
are these guys like, how did this come up in
the room and howd you guys settle on the song? Well,
it was funny, came in, we started writing. I've never
written with Parker Casey or Greg before, and so it
came in the room. And it's kind of intimidating, you know,
getting into getting into you never know what somebody's gonna
think of it, and it's songwriting. He's actually really intimidating

(01:06:59):
because you know, you always don't want to throw out
something that everybody looks at you like, Okay, that's you know,
that's not where not gonna go with that. So but
they were really cool and we sat down and started
from some core progressions. I sang a little bit, they
sang a little bit, and we kind of messed the
melodies and started writing the lyrics, and then I got
what you never want happened in a songwriting situation. I

(01:07:19):
was in the middle of a lot of things going
on at my time in life, and I had a
really important phone call that just kept blowing up my phone,
blowing my phone. I walked out and I literally was
maybe gone for like five ten minutes at most, and
I can't back, and they're like, hey, yeah, we got
the chorus. Then I was like, holy crap, you know, glad,
I got glad. I got some parts in as far
as the as far as the verse and the melody
and stuff like that. But no, they were a great

(01:07:39):
bunch of writers, and we did a real quick uh
you know, I guess they called living Room demo and
it kind of took off from there. So and right
now you guys can stream Love like it's Josh's new single,
can you? Because you're so good live and I know
we just heard heard the track there, but I think
our listeners like to hear someone play their song. Yeah,
so would you mind playing this long verse and chorus
the love like? Absolutely? You got that fight? I told

(01:08:13):
your sun guy looking you got that sweet like Marvin
gig got to me. Give me that happy halver feeding
every deal. Don't you got it all? You got me? Yeah,
you got me. I never had a love like me

(01:08:34):
now a motown battle of cattlelight of summer on the
street lights feels out and non's good shitty. I'm tuning
sound fighting crazy Sunday true, never had a love black love,
black love black you a black daddy? Sound great? Yeaggy

(01:09:07):
thang listen stream that song here, history repeats. Play little
clip of that? Yeah, oh you want to heck you
want to play? I thought you grab your guitar. I know,
I mean I thought I didn't know if you guys
want to play cripple clip of that's? What would you
rather do? Would you rather play a little bit for
us and showcase that fine voice of yours. It sounds
a little hard, but okay, just give us a little

(01:09:27):
bit of it. Okay, becaus are testing me early in
the morning. Early in the morning for an artist. Anyways,
I guess say that new how schools. I knew how

(01:09:49):
its shooting up at your front door, live with just friends,
yule ting Machael, we'll start talking on else you're asking
bad her. She don't work out then now staying to

(01:10:10):
Long's waning am and should be gone. But don't blame
it all the night. Don't blame it on us. You
don't blame it all the worn because it ain't strong.
N I won't blame it only if you don't blame

(01:10:30):
it on me. Yeah, let's blame it all history. You
can see his story repeats. I mean, color me impressed.
I knew you could sing so good man, but I
mean you're you're just you're annihilating it. Thank you, I

(01:10:51):
appreciate that. I'm glad that we didn't play the clip.
Holy crap, Josh Grayson is here. He's whooping these songs, man,
and I know we're just gonna do not and to lose.
Do you know all your songs? Like? Are you like? Yeah,
I know, I'm all no problem. Uh, you know, I
don't know wish I did um like if I were
to go you know, I want to live, right because
since that was a top five song for you, do

(01:11:13):
you know I want to live? I do not? You
know why because I'll tell you. I'll tell you why.
Go ahead. I'm a big monkey when it comes to
hitting the hitting the guitar, and I like, I like
to play all this stuff. And I self taught myself
or I taught myself how to play guitar. I think
like nineteen years old when I was in college. Um
so I definitely know how to play like all the stuff.
I'm singing everything, But that song has got so many
intricate rhythms. If I sit there and I try to

(01:11:35):
play the rhythm and sing at the same time, that's
not gonna work out for me. What is your favorite song?
If you're at somebody's house, they're like, uh, you go
with a buddy and they're like, this is Josh Grayson
Country start job and they're like, oh, you play. They
give you a guitar and they're like play something. What? What? Like?
What cover song do you go to first at a party?
At a party, we'll see I'm a sucker for ballad,

(01:11:56):
So those don't go over very well. Come on, like,
what's your ballot. What is because I also that soul
in your voice too, because I could definitely hear the country,
but I do hear like the Motown influence soul. Remember,
I'm just gonna remember playing this one in the rain

(01:12:16):
isn't blowing in your face here the woes on your case.
But I usually do a lot of all right, I

(01:12:39):
could do this one a lot, desp Why don't you
come to sences? You've been out riding fances. You're so
long now you're hard won, I know. Oh man, you

(01:13:01):
got your reasons. These things that a please and you
can hurt you somehow. Don't you play the Queen a
diamonds ball? She'll beat you? Which zeble? You knew the

(01:13:21):
Queen of hearts and his only you a bit spid
And it sits me some father things having to lead
upon your table, but you only walks. You can't soo. Hey,

songs out now, like what's the go? You're trying to
put out a full record? You want to? Yeah, actually
we're looking for uh end of October, middle of November
to lease an album. It's always one of those things
where you write a bunch of stuff and you kind
of want to wait to see if you, you know,

(01:14:07):
write that just that one thing that might hit you.
And being the fact that you know, I've got my
own label, guide investor, and I kind of make my
own music. We can go out of drop of the
hat and go and record. I'll want to. And I've
got so many good friends still in Nashville that kind
of believe in me and believe in what I'm doing
and think that, you know, we get things really going again,
and so much show that to actually we're getting rid

(01:14:28):

to let me cut something he wrote, a song called
taking You. So there's a lot of great things happening,
a lot of good things going on. Well, I believe
in you. When you get that that record ready or
that song ready, call me up. Absolutely we'll put you
on again. We'll talk about it. Absolutely. This I don't
know how to play a little bit more songs on
the spot. Listen. We never put people on the spot

little garry. Okay, you can give with this, so you
can give it that no no no no no no
no no no. I was like reading it for you
to break out into that really like fast start with this.
Um okay, so this is that, this that, this is

(01:15:54):
that that is this? Ye this or that is the
name of the game. Okay, sour or wheat. I'm gonna go.
I like a little bit of both, though, like you
ever like sour heads growing up heads? Okay, all right,
I'll go sweet then. Okay, I have a sweet tooth.
I love like candies and chocolates and ice cream and
that kind of stuff. Like any sweet or is there

(01:16:16):
short and sweets you don't like? I like anything sweet,
whether it's natural sweet like fruits, or it's like chocolate
candy sweets, I love it all. I'm with you on
the sweets, but I do not think fruits are sweets.
And if somebody gives me like a lemon or a
strawberry shortcake thing, I'm like, no, I don't want that.
I want like chocolate or vanilla or red velvet. But
do you like those sweets though you like? Like I

(01:16:38):
don't remind them, but I wouldn't choose them. Like if
there's something on the menu of like chocolate cake or
like strawberry shortcake, I'm totally going chocolate cake. Okay for me.
I think it's rooted. As a child, we weren't allowed
to have candy, so so I basically supplemented real candy
and sweets with fruits. I was allowed to half oranges
and watermelon and that kind of stuff. So so for
me it was always that. And then when I got

(01:16:59):
to be of an age I could buy my own stuff,
I was like, screw you, I'm buying candy. Yes, but
I still like fruit though I enjoy it. Okay, that's fair,
So I'll go with sweet. Okay, West or East Coast.
That's tough because I've lived on both, I know, and
I am both. Um, I would have to go West Coast, Okay.
That's the reason. I think even as a child growing up,

(01:17:19):
I was more in tune with West Coast lifestyle rap
like I loved NWA Digital Underground versus like Biggie and
that in that whole side, like two pacing. I mean
I was into it two bucks West Coast sorry, Like
I just wasn't into the East Coast scene. Um, so
I would do more West Coast laid back to server lifestyle, yes, yeah,
and I just surfer surfer lifestyle. Yeah, just the beat.

(01:17:43):
I mean, I mean there are beaches on both sides,
but it's like that whole vibe. And I've always wanted
to be in Hollywood in LA and that was my
dream as a child, so that's just that's me at
West Coast all day, every day. Oh, I see, I
need to go out to the West Coast. I haven't
got a chance. I've never been to the West Coast.
The only time I've ever been to anywhere on the
West Coast was La to go to Hawaii a few

(01:18:03):
years back when my parents took us on a vacation.
But no, besides that, I've not been anywhere. The furthest
I've been is Colorado, and that's not even West Coast
for me. It's not. It's more Midwest here. Yeah. Well,
when you're in La, were you just it was just
like a airport stop. Okay, so you never really were.
I think we stayed that night in like ate somewhere
on a pier, but I don't really remember it that much.
I was younger, so I remember Hawaii, but I don't

(01:18:24):
really remember that little stop that we had. Okay, So
whenever I decided to go, you have to tell me why,
Well for sure, like I know, you give me all
the things. Well, yeah, well, because last this past holiday
break you went and did the whole East Coast tour.
I feel like this time you get to the West coast. Yes,
but westcas was so much harder to get to from
where we are. It is. We just gotta you basically
the fly and then rent a car. Yeah, and then
you use that to drive up and down the coast,

(01:18:44):
which I want to do that, yes, yeah, drive that.
If you could do the whole thing from Seattle all
the way down to LA which would take a minute,
I highly recommended. Have you done that. I've done from
the from Norcau to Socao, never from Washington down. So
that's a buckle list item for me as well, to
do the whole thing. But even just the parts I've
seen from all of California unbelievable. One, aren't the redwoods

(01:19:08):
in North Okay? Okay, yeah, all of that. So for
now I have to choose East Coast again beautiful, which
you need to go to the East Coast too, like
do what we did and go to all of those
That's what I've always want to do that as well.
Like that northern area you win too, is so cool looking,
so awesome, much history too, right, Yeah, so much history
and so much beautiful scenery that you just don't expect

(01:19:29):
because when when you think of the East Coast, you're
thinking of New York City, right all you think of
and then there's so much more to offer up there. Ye.
So right now mine's East Coast, but it could be
West Coast. I just haven't been yet. Yeah. Yeah, and
it makes me really sad that I have not been
to half of the United States. I know, you got
to get out there, but you're starting. I appreciate the
fact that you're starting. You're you're trying to do it. Trying.

(01:19:50):
I mean, as you know, it's very hard to take
off from workerly an option. Most of the time. It's
very tough. But and as you get older it becoming
more difficult. If you decide have a family, then it's
even more difficult to get out and do stuff exactly. Yeah.
So when I do decide to go to West Coast,
I'm coming to you give up all the suggestion. Yeah. Um,
pancakes or waffles? Oh man, that's another tough one. That's

(01:20:12):
why this is a good game. It's like who you
cannot choose. I like both. I like cracker barrel pancakes
and I like waffle House waffles. Oh those are both
very specific too. Yeah, but I want to say when
I was living in La I was really big into
diners because they have those really cool old it's almost
it's basically walking back in a time. Oh like mom
and pop diners, yes and there, and they keep them

(01:20:33):
the way they are that they keep at fifties, sixties,
seventies vibe because when they film movies that have the
air like period pieces that are in that era. There's
a lot of places in Hollywood where you can film
because it's still that vibe and that thing. But when
you go to these places, it's so cool, not only
because you could recognize it from film or television, but
it's like it's just going back in time. And the
diner and everything there is still pretty affordable. They can

(01:20:55):
go there and get waffles and eggs and a side
dish for like five bucks and some really crappy coffee
or a dollar. So and I always would try to
go and try a bunch of different waffles, never pancakes.
So because of that, I'm going with waffles. And I've
tried like probably fifty different kind of waffles. What's your
favorite kind of waffle? I think it have to be
the super thin, crunchy waffle. Okay, so we're wait the

(01:21:17):
fifty different kinds? Were they different flavors or were they different,
like just differently made, just different different places. Everyone has
their own recipe. Me some of them are like very
much the same, but just like going to many different
places throughout SoCal, like different diners or restaurants that serve waffles.
I would say some of them like plaining, some insert
some sort of fruits, or they infuse it with CBD

(01:21:40):
or thac amazing. Did you ever have a bad waffle?
I love waffle, so no, I've never had a bad waffle. Yeah,
there's certain foods that like if you make them wrong, Yeah,
you're really bad at what you do because like it's
very hard to mess things staple. Yeah, yes, waffle is

(01:22:00):
one of them. It's a breakfast If you can't make
a really good waffle, and you're a breakfast breakfast spot
if you're it's been around me. Words are hard, exactly.
I can't move my mouth. If you can't make a
good waffle, you are not a legitimate breakfast spot. Agreed. Yeah,
even pancakes, who I know this is this or that,
But if you can't make a good pancake, yeah, like
just step off, just give up. Yes, your business is

(01:22:22):
a crap and I used to say that about pizza,
but then I'll learned that the places no cardboard pizzas exist. Yes,
oh my god, bad lessons learned. But I'm the opposite
with you on this one. You like a pancakes, chocolate
chip pancakes every time. Okay, So when you do your
trip for the West Coast. Yeah, there's a place in
La and you gotta get there right when they open.
It's called the Riddle Cafe and it's on It's right

(01:22:44):
in the heart of Hollywood, and there's usually a long
line if you go there after eight am. But you're
a morning person, so you go there right at six
or seven when they open, old school diner. It's got
like it's really cool, low top bar. But they're pancakes
are like the size of this desk. It's like they're
they're massive, like I would say, maybe twenty four inches
in diameter. They're huge, meant to be shared. But they
got really good chocolate chip pancakes and they're love. Yes, okay, yeah, yes, yeah,

(01:23:09):
anyone listening, you're going to La, go to the Griddle.
The Griddle Cafe is I think it's a griddle cafe.
I always call it the Griddle maybe the official name
is a Griddle Cafe. I can look it up for
you while you're talking about something else. Yeah, well you're
like googling on like google fast. Um okay, well, I
mean I think I may have your answer to this one.
Now that we've had this discussion, it's a perfect one
to lead into. Okay, breakfast or dinner. Oh, breakfast all

(01:23:32):
day every day? Yeah? Oh yeah, I love I breakfast
at my wedding. Oh yeah, we talked about yeah and
I loved it. Yeah, okay, yes, breakfast, Okay, that was
for sure. And it is called the Griddle Cafe. That's
the official name. It looks like and worth the way,
even if you have to wait, right, Yeah, I don't
like lines, so I would never wait. But if you're
okay with waiting, then it's great. Doesn't have the patience

(01:23:56):
to wait in a line. I'm Bugis House, Sunset and
Fairfax Avenue. Go there, and then go down on Fairfax
Avenue and check out all of the really cool West
Hollywood clothing stores. They all all their flagship stores are
right there. Okay, that's cool. Hey, pro tip, you're going
to California, so yeah, breakfast, what about you? Breakfast? I'm
gonna yeah, I can eat breakfast for breakfast, lunch, dinner.
Oh yeah, like breakfast for dinner is one of my favorites.

(01:24:17):
Oh my god, it's amazing. That's because our parents were lazy,
but I appreciated it. Oh. I still it's still fun
to me. Like nothing, there's nothing as satisfying as like
just even like a eggs toast, like very simple breakfast. Yes,
I love like all the different kinds now, but like
a simple breakfast that still make me happy. Perfect. Have
you ever had a egg in a hole on a bread? No,
we're just basically it's just it's pretty simple. You just

(01:24:38):
take a piece of bread and you take a small
cup or you cut it and cut a hole in
the middle and then put the egg in the middle
of the bread and then you really fry it in
a pan and you can put sides. Yeah, both sides. Yeah, Okay,
I'm gonna try that. It's difficult. I mean I like eggs. Yeah,
it kind of goes together. Ye have you? Oh we
taught lunchbox and I brought this up on last and
it was like a throwback. Have you ever had toast
with cinnamon sugar on it? That's on the way you

(01:25:00):
can do it. Yeah, my grandma, I didn't know what
cinnamon was because I always thought cinnamon was the way
she made it, and it being us little flint stones
jar that she'd shake up, yes, cinnamon and sugar, until
I always quit it cinnamon toast to just be that.
And then when it was our friend's house and I
want some cinnamon toast and his mom was like, you
want cinnamon on toast, and I was like yeah, and
she made it and was awful, And then I realized

(01:25:21):
that my grandma was sugar and everything. The best part
about this is every time it gets brought up, we
all had these specific containers that held this mixture in
our houses. Yeah, what was your house, because yeah, you
couln't buy it from the store. You had to make it. Yes, Well,
at first it was a country crock butter thing, okay,
but then eventually we bought a little like one of

(01:25:42):
those shakers for other used for other things, that we
put an entire mixture of cinnamon sugar because we ate
it so much, oh real quick, but we had to
have something to like pour it on. Yeah, breakfast every
day was cinnamon toast. Yep, every morning like total throwback.
Don't know why we stopped eating it when we got older,
like it's mostly sugar. Yeah, because my emma wasn't there
to make it for me. So yeah, she when we
go back to visit, she'd always want to if I

(01:26:03):
want my toast, and then with the best part of me,
got older to make it ourselves. Do you ever do
the spray butter? No, oh, spray spray but before Okay,
Yeah you loaded popcorn. Yeah, you loaded up with spray butter.
It's that way, like cakes with butter. And then you,
of course, as you're pouring it, like seeps into the
butter and so you pour like a nice thick layer
on it. And then now you've just basically made cinnamon

(01:26:25):
sugar butter on top of your toast. It's awesome. I
want to have to do I've been thinking about doing
this again ever since Lunchbox and I talked about. Now
you've encouraged me to continue trying to figure out it,
and I'm gonna put it into my kids' lives now
I know he's gonna have that. It is this thing
that we have to bring back for the next generations
because it was such an important part of our lives.
Oh it was massive. Yeah, and so many things that

(01:26:45):
we just don't talk about until it got brought up.
Then everybody, like even on the B team facebook page,
there was this whole thread of people like, oh my gosh,
I didn't know, like we all did this. Yeah, it
was like the family. Yeah, our thing. Some people didn't
do it, like it with my friend's house, and they
thought I was crazy? Did you ever? So? There was
two specific cereals that I would eat as a kid,

(01:27:07):
and I would put sugar on them, okay, Rice Crispy
Treats okay, yeah and Raising Nut Brand okay, two cereals
that I would load with sugar when I ate them.
Did you ever put like sugar sugar on Cereal? Never
put sugar on them? You know what. I just wanted
to say that that's another thing it's weird about me.

(01:27:27):
I love sugar and I love sweets, but my cereal
I like it to be like I'm like an old
crotchety man. I like plain cheerios, I like plain wheaties.
You don't like the fruity cereals, I don't mind them.
Sweat cereals, I don't mind them. They're good. I'll have them,
but I just like like the brands, like the raisin brands.
The my favorite is the the oatmeal squares. Yeah, and

(01:27:52):
it just starts, it's just so good to have a
nice plain brand Cereal. Yeah yourself, right, you heard what
sounded like and the daily newspaper and my coffee. Oh man, yeah,
I know, well I knew it was like kind of
a crazy thing that I did, Like who puts more sir? Cereal?
But I always did that and it always tasted so good.

(01:28:14):
Now I can't eat them, so I don't even buy
them because I can't eat them without sugar on them,
and horn knows I cannot eat that like I use. Yeah,
my tabos definitely slow down as we get older. Yes,
oh my gosh, okay, we have a few more. We'll
roll through them day or night, day, night. Not the song.

(01:28:35):
I think it's changed throughout my life. When I was younger,
it was definitely night. Yeah, Now it's definitely the daytime.
I'm the kind of person that even on our off
days and weekends and stuff, I still find myself getting
up early, like getting up not as early as we
do to hear, but still in the six o'clock hour
I'll get up on the weekends. That way, I can
just get everything in. I like getting out early too,
because when you beat traffic, you beat everyone else who

(01:28:55):
sleeps in and all that kind of stuff. So I'm
I'm a day person now, especially as a father. We're
adding to U Scuba's old list, meal, reading the newspaper,
checking my lottery numbers. Oh my gosh, mine's still night

(01:29:19):
I have not crossed over the one thing that's still
I'm still night out. I would love to stay up late,
like I could stay up till three am, but I
try not to because I don't have the option anymore. Yeah, yeah,
it's too tough. Yes, So okay, I have your ongoing
list over here, un old man list. I love. I
love trolling you lunch box and because you don't you

(01:29:41):
let it bother you. But those two do I accepted.
I embrace getting older and it's just just part of well.
And to be fair, I have I have my dentist,
doctor Schmidt, who's so awesome. He did mine VISI line,
but he calls it instead of older, you are vintage vintage.
That that's a nice way to It's a nice connotation
for it. Yes, And he was like, I'm not old

(01:30:03):
on vintage, and I was like, you know what you are?
Like really, because everything that's old is new again always yeah, always,
so nice would put I'll start coining that phrase. Yeah
you're vintage vintage. You ain't old on vintage. Okay, tattoos
are piercings. Um, I would have to, I guess to
piercings because I don't I don't want tattoos and I
don't like tattoos. Right there with you, Yeah, I have
my ears pierce that both ears piers wait still yeah,

(01:30:25):
I mean they haven't closed up, I imagine, but they're there.
I could. I could put an earring in there if
I wanted to, just like a little little diamonds, little diamonds.
I used to wear black diamonds up until about four.
I'm picturing you black diamonds right now. That is here.
I can't see it. Yeah. When I was younger, as
a kid, I wanted ears pierce. My mom wouldn't do it.
So I used to get from Claire's or Piercing Pagoda
or whatever used to get those magnetic earrings. And it's

(01:30:50):
funny is you didn't want to tell your friends that
you didn't get your ears pierced, but it was obvious
after Jim when your ear when your piercing went from
like right in the middle of the year to shifted
to the left. Yeah, those magnetic periods forever, they're awful.
Oh my gosh. Yeah, so ears Pierce. I'm with you.
I still have my belly button pierce, and people are
like working early twenty seven, I was like, yeah, I

(01:31:11):
got when I'm sixteen. What else am I gonna do
with it? I'm gonna take it out. There's gonna be
a hole there. Yeah, gonna embrace it and wear it. Yeah,
it's there. I may bring back my earrings, who knows,
let's see, I always want to do one day. Don't
tell anyone that that I got him. Yes, just bring
him in and just rock him and just see if
anybody noticed. Who knows which what may take a minute
because of our our ear our headphones over our ears

(01:31:32):
a lot. Oh, trust me, every time you'll see me,
never wear earrings because they immediately go into my like
head would hurt. Right, Yes, it does not feel comfortable
because I want those dangling ones. So that's got the
cross dangling on it, like George Michael let me tell
you a story. Okay, before my boyfriend and I when
I had gone on a date a few days of
this guy and he wore one of those how do

(01:31:53):
you feel about those? I didn't like it. I wanted to.
I was like, you know, like he rocked it, like
that was his style, right, like it fit with what
he wore and how he wore things. But I was like,
I justus. I couldn't. Every time I thought, I was like,
do we have to have that? And it dangle and
jiggle and he move his head. I just couldn't. I couldn't.

(01:32:14):
But it's very in style right now. Yeah, and it's
very much the thing people do. And I wanted to
like him. I was like, I just can't get one, okay,
And that's where I started. I started with just the
one because Michael Jordan always had the one hoop and
I want to be like Michael Jordan. And then one
day it was like, it wasn't cool to have the one,
you should have both, so I have both. All the
all the fads changing overt yeah a few months, ye, well,

(01:32:39):
stick with the other earrings. I don't know, I just
I cannot get behind that trend. Yeah, yeah, I want
to do it, but I don't think I can pull
it off, So I'll do the black diamonds. Yeah, yeah,
I'll try. I want to see that happen where one
day and you'll know, and no one else will, but
you'll know. I'll see it like I know what's happening. Okay,
mustard or mayo? Oh um. I think I have to
do mustard because I like different kinds of mustard, So

(01:33:01):
I'm a mustard. Go. Do you like honey mustard? I
love honey mustard. It's fantastic. And I make this thing
I always call rednecked chicken, and it's basically it's best
with chicken thighs because they're pretty uicy, but you can
do chicken breast. And I make this concoction where I
take honey mustard, a little bit of like the harder mustard,
like the grape of pond or whatever they call it,

(01:33:21):
and then I mix it with some u not vinegar,
but it's rice wine vinegar and a little bit of sugar,
and you mix that together and it creates this like
sauce and you bake it on the chicken and it
comes out. It's just freaking phenomenal. Dang, very very you
need a post about that because I bet people will
totally try it. Yes, and so I love mustard. To
answer your question, yeah, all kinds of spicy, hot, sweet, whatever.

(01:33:42):
I love mustard. Do you dip your fries and mustard,
honey mustard, anything like that? Yeah? Okay, especially sweetetati fries.
Sweeptati fries do not go well with ketchup. They need
mustard or some sort of like sweeter based sauce. Ranch
ranch is good, yeah, but not ketchup. I hate when
you get those fries and they give you ketchup like
this is and go together. Hey, tell me how you

(01:34:04):
really feel about these potatoes and mustard or it sucks,
that's what it is. Yes, And you know what's funny too,
is I always loved honey mustard my entire life. I
never liked mustard up until the last few years. Never
like like regular must like frenches, mustard ever on sandwiches,
And I get that from something to put sugar in
this cereal, like the sweeter mustard. I always like three

(01:34:25):
things is a problem in my life. But yeah, never
until recently. But now it's been added to my sandwiches
and I actually really like it. Do you like those
like the ones where it's almost like mustard seed, where
it's like really hardcore mustard. I do with pretzels, okay,
oh yes, yes, or pretzels it's fantastic, yeah, or a
really good sandwich. It kind of can be good with
it too, if it mixes, like with the right ingredients. Yeah.

(01:34:46):
But I mean it was a good thing for me
to add thanks to my sandwiches because being a vegetarian,
my sandwich is always consisted of, first off, like before
I expanded my taste buds, a few different cheeses, lettuce, mayo,
and black olives. Sucks. It's very uneventful, but at least
I have upgraded now to adding tomatoes and mustard, which

(01:35:08):
are two things I did not used to like. I
don't like tomatoes at all. Yeah I didn't. I didn't either.
It's the texture. I don't mind the buy products of
tomatoes like catch up in marinara sauce and all that,
but an actual tomato, I just even thinking about a gag.
I can't do it. That's interesting. Yeah, it's a texture thing.
I just yeah, see why didn't use to like it
wasn't a texture thing. But I now I'll even eat
them by themselves, like an apple, not like not like that,

(01:35:33):
Like if there's a slice, I'll eat like a slice,
all right, Okay, strange, Why do you not like an Initially,
I don't know. I have no idea. I just never honestly,
they'll Being a vegetarian, I would eat like four food groups. Okay, carps,
carbs in more carps, and cheese carps. Literally it was
like grilled cheese, um, pasta, mashed potatoes, and Casey is

(01:35:54):
so you need to expand your horizon as a vegetarian
as I got older and I moved to Nashville, I
mean I lived in hands and I went to chain
restaurants all the time, right, which were awesome when I
was younger, which has done awesome to expand that now.
But when I moved to Nashville, like I greatly expanded
my tastebooks. Oh yeah, and like now I eat salads
and vegetables and things that vegetarians actually eat totally. And

(01:36:17):
if you go to places like La and it's like
it's a thing, it's there are full on restaurants where
they try to fool you that there's meat in there.
And I can tell I'll tell you this is not
real garbage. We went to a spot with my cousin
who's hardcore vegetarian, and she's like, we you'll find something
on the menu, the apasta or whatever. I was like, fine,
and I ordered lasagna and I got to take my
first bite in lasagna. It's like chewing on tree bark

(01:36:37):
and I'm like, what the hell is in here? And
I'm like, like, you can't mess up noodles and cheese.
And they go, whoa, this is vegan or whatever it is.
We don't have cheese, so we've crunched up a bunch
of nuts and put some powder in there and call
it cheese. And I was like, someone take me to
Taco bell. I can't. I need to eat before we
go to the show. It just sucks. But they've got
those options out there if you want, yes, strictly no

(01:36:58):
meat at all. No. I apply the people that can
be vegan and do that. I've wanted to, but cheese
is such a part of my diet and fake cheese
is so gross to me, awful, and I can't. I
just can't. I mean, I eat shredded cheese bout a hand,
so like I love cheese. You couldn't break away from that. No,
that's the one thing I can't break away from. Yeah,
so I feel you on that. Did you ever have
a food that you didn't like but now you do?

(01:37:20):
Brussels sprouts? Okay, yeah, I didn't like those. I love
him now, Brussels sprouts asparagus. My wife's family opened me
up to a lot of vegetables because growing up as
a kid, you maybe were similar. It was all canned foods,
so all the vegetables to me just tasted like aluminium,
and so I didn't like them because they were garbage.
It just tasted no matter what you do, do it,
it didn't taste good. But then my wife, her family

(01:37:41):
is Filipino. They do a lot of fresh cooking, so
all their vegetables were fresh. It was fresh green beans,
it was fresh everything, and so i'd always would very
hesitant to try it, but I would try it. I'm
an adult. Let me just open my mind up, like,
oh my god, it's amazing. Not what I remember my
mom making. Sorry, mom, her green bean castle, her gram
me castall tasted like you're eating out of an aluminium can.
This tastes like a green bee and it's delicious. So yeah,

(01:38:01):
I equate that to her family of trying new fresh vegetables.
And so I've opened myself up two more. Not tomatoes, ever,
but at least other things like green beans and asparagus,
Brussels sprouts, um, what else? The greens basically is what
that sounds like for you? Yeah, pretty much the greens
I'm into. Ye. Yeah, I don't think any kid ever
really likes the greens. No, I still won't do broccoli.

(01:38:23):
Broccoli just to smell of broccoli makes me want to
throw up. It's interesting awful. So tomatoes and broccoli, if
I put those on your desks, you ain't got me happy.
I'd go home. I'd leave. I'd leave you where every
rat you figure yourself out to get home, because it
ain't gonna be for me. Oh my gosh. Okay, that's
good one. Last one, all right, we'll go on to
the last moment. Internet or cable okay, um oh, I

(01:38:47):
shouldn't say cable because cable's kind of old school. Now
I have cable. Hey, old school, put us on your
old man list. Steve has cable to be fair of it.
Till last month, I still had a version of Okay,
I'm just saying, like now people are going away from it,
so it's kind of easy to like no cable so
internet or like streaming services like things to watch TV

(01:39:07):
shows and movies. Yeah, I guess I have to do
internet because for me, streaming is great. But it's the
anxiety of finding something to watch unless you're unless you're
into a show and you're you're watching and you've committed.
Like we're at a point with us with kids. They
hate to keep saying, well with as with kids, you
know it's gonna suck Morgan when you have children rioting

(01:39:29):
that one doesn't count your dad. But you're free time
though you literally try to watch television. But your kids,
you know, you want to hang out with them as well.
And if you watch TV, they're making noise or doing
things and you can't listen or hear things or pay
attention to the show. And when I watch a movie
or a show, I like to fully involve and dive
myself into it. I'm watching, I don't have my phone

(01:39:49):
near me. I'm just gonna I want to watch it.
I want to I want to take this show in
or a movie. And when you have kids, you can't
do that because they're constant. I have to go pee,
I need this, this is happening, I'm crying, I'm hungry,
I want this, that and the other. So you get
five minutes into it's the posit, posit, posit. You get
the point. I'm like, forget it. I'm not watching anything.
I don't I can't watch anything. It takes me almost
three days to get through one forty minute episode. So

(01:40:12):
way frustrating, so way to frustrating. So when you say cables, oh,
I don't mind cable because I just put on anything
in the background. It doesn't matter. But so if you're
going with streaming or internet service, I have to go
internet just because growing up as a kid, when internet
became a thing, it was just such a mind blowing
thing that I can go on to this computer and
connect to people across the globe, or find pictures or things,

(01:40:35):
or look up things around the world. Like you remember
back in the day, you just google like Egypt, just
to see Egypt because you could never see it before.
Oh and did you ever I could tell us going somewhere?
Did you ever go? What did you ever hear? Or
just get all with your friends, chat roulette, chat, roulette. Yeah,

(01:40:56):
what is that? So it was it made me feel
well No, no, okay, so I laugh because there's dirty
moments on it, not intentionally like that we were doing.
So I don't know what's going to pop up on
your computer. It was. I don't know if it even
still exists, but it used to be this tool where
you would get on and you would literally randomly I

(01:41:19):
see this, Yeah, meet somebody from anywhere in the world.
Sounds virtually yeah, and it was really cool. You'd meet
really cool people like you would be sitting there with
your friends if you ever did it by yourself. You
know this show's videos like it's still a thing. Yeah.
So it's like it's like Zoom, but like international, and
you're not purposely connecting to one person. You're connecting with
a stranger. And it was only video. It was a

(01:41:39):
video thing, video and talk like you talked to him.
It's like a virtual like it's a Zoom with a stranger. Gotcha.
This must have been after me because I was AOL
at one point we still had AOL. Okay, this was
another thing that came on. I want to say this
happened towards the end of my middle school years beginning
of high school years, when webcams became a thing. Yes
for me that webcams weren't a thing at all, and

(01:42:00):
then yeah, okay, guys, like we'd have sleepovers and everybody like,
let's get on chat relics. You try and find cute guys, right, yeah,
but you know there's always the dirty people that are
on there, that are of course doing things and you
have to like quickly literally. Yeah. That's why I was giggling,
because I was like, there's awkward moments, but like, we'd
have really cool conversations with a group of guys who

(01:42:20):
are also our age in France, and you talk about
random things. What's America, what's France? Like? Yeah, like you
just had these cool conversations and the concept behind it
was so cool, and we had some really fun moments
on there where you're just sitting there with your a
bunch of friends and you're talking to potentially cute guys
or random other fun groups of girls yeah that you'll
never meet. Yeah, but yeah, it was a really cool concept.

(01:42:42):
What if anyone ever did meet if they ever did
pivot into reality, I don't, I mean, I know it,
I know it was kind of a drop into the
virtual dating realm. Yeah, totally. People would meet and they'd
be like, oh my gosh, like you know, some people
believe in love him first sight. I'm sure that happened
now there. It never i mean, ours was all just

(01:43:03):
like funding games, go all sleep overnights fly. But yeah,
I'm sure that happened because that was like that first
kind of start of it. But it existed for several years. Okay,
but yeah, that's pretty good that you made me think
of chatroulea And that's another flashback. Yeah, I never did
that one, and maybe it was after the time because
I got to a point where then I got busy
with work in life and probably moved on from that.
But I remember, yeah, that the Internet in general was

(01:43:25):
a mind blowing thing. Yeah, we were. You're sitting there here,
like you live in London, yeah, or like you'd meet
somebody from New Zealand and you're like, oh, it's like nighttime,
Like you're just mind blown that this is a possibility
to even be talking to somebody you don't know from
across the world, especially because we grew up in a
time frame where like long distance calls were expensive and
you couldn't do it, or you like, only call me
on nights and weekends after seven pm because because before

(01:43:48):
that it costs me a crap a lot of money
to make a phone call. So to be able to
not only to make a phone call and sense, but
a video call with anyone around the world and free
and for free, that is really cool. Or as many
hours you had in your AOLCD? Yep, yeah, that you
made me think of that. What was your screen name on?
Do you have like screen names on chat? Rolett or
was the same thing as AOL? No? You didn't. You

(01:44:09):
just put like your name. Okay, if I remember Karta,
you might have been able to do like a screen name.
But honestly, we were so focused to getting too the video.
I don't think I really am. Get us to the gas,
get it together, you know a bunch of middle school girls. Yeah, totally.
Do you remember you're a chat name on AOL? Your
screen name? I don't. I don't think it was anything
embarrassing because I can't remember it. Did you have an
embarrassing one? Um? It was Stephen Hollywood. It wasn't anything

(01:44:32):
like Steven Hollywood. It's like you predicted your whole life
pretty much. Yeah, and It was funny because I kind
of forgot about it. That was like in the late nineties,
and then I started working with Seacrest a like twenty fourteen.
Remember my very first day working with them, like like, hey,
would you remember your your ins messenger screen name? And

(01:44:52):
I was like, what, it's like a topic or something
like no, No, we do all our communicating behind the
scenes on AOL. Yeah. So I remember my first couple
of years with Ryan Seacrests National and Big Show out
of LA We used AOL instant messenger until the day
had died, because I remember when it was coming to
a point where they're like, hey, ams Am was going away.

(01:45:16):
We're pivoting to something else. You know, figure out it
gave it. Basically got an email saying figure out another
means to communicate. So we were still using AOL chat
rooms from twenty fourteen up until about twenty and eighteen
on a nationally massive, multi million dollars show. So you
tell me you were using it for worse to talk
to your employees and I'm sitting here writing breakup away

(01:45:36):
messages on AIM supposed boyfriends I didn't have. Yeah, I
was three with Aim. Yeah, but then we were using
it in a time like twenty fifteen. I thought it
died in like the nineties, literally two thousands, and here
we are. That's what they were using. And then we
pivoted the Slack, which I try to use here, and
no one wanted to use it. And I was like
all right, oh yeah, no, we just communicate in a
group message. Yeah, pretty much. Yeah. I was like, never mine, ray,

(01:45:59):
but yeah, it's funny. Yeah. I was like this thing like,
idn't even know. Yeah, I didn't know it was still around.
I didn't know it was around either. I I couldn't
remember my password, so I had to sign up for
a new account. Well didn't you have to be on
a specific internet to be on AOL? Well oh yeah,
while back it was only AOL's internet. So you would
dial up and you'd be like, hey, make sure no
one's on the phone because I'm dialing up right now.
That's what it was. Yeah, And if you call someone's

(01:46:19):
house to be damn Stevens the internet. Yeah, so you
had a direct connection. And then this was just whatever
internet service you're using. You just download the AIM app
and you would click on in sign in and a
little running guy, yeah, little yeah, a little yellow guy.
Yeah yeah, and then they I think they did away
with it like fully in twenty and eighteen, and then
we had a pivot and move use other chat rooms

(01:46:40):
to connect. Wow. Yeah, so many throwbacks but also so
many cool moments. Yeah, I love it. That was good
this or that funny work. That was a good job
like that. All right, Well, you guys can listen right
now to see who on the show had to eat
the world's sourist candy and who saw it happened and
then decided to try it as well. Number two, it's
now time for the wheel of sour. We have the

(01:47:04):
world's most sour candy. Here. There's a video of a
guy and four seconds he's start of choking because it
was so everybody's names on the wheel, Bobby Amy, Eddie, Lunchbox, Scoobasdeve,
Raymundo and Mike d I mean lands on you. You
eat the candy, Oh gosh, you have to keep in
your mouth for twenty seconds. If you don't down, one
gets thrown away. You do another one until it adds

(01:47:26):
twenty seconds. Our patch kids are hard for me. Yeah, exactly, though,
gonna spin the wheel. This is the practice spin right,
why a practice practice, and whoever lands on would have lost? Okay,
but this is a practice the loser would have been Raymundo.

(01:47:48):
So you know Raymundo's not gonna lose this time, right,
That's that's why it's not good, No, lunch All the
odds are still the same. No they're not, Yeah they are. Okay,
you think that we will spind the wheel. Whomever it
lands on has to eat the sour candy? Is there
anyone you're cheering for? Just not me? Okay, I have
to wear a cat tail next week for a couple
of days. I don't want to also have to eat

(01:48:09):
the sour candy. We're ready, guys, Yeah, let's sah my god,
come on, come on, sour God. No God, no, sour God.

(01:48:34):
You Lunchbox lost. Of course, for those that can't tell, oh,
that was a big hearty spin too. Okay, so let's
send him to the stage, to this stage, to that stage,
to this stage. Lunchbox is walking to the stage. Lunchbox,

(01:48:57):
you manifested that you always do you always do. Okay,
let me see your finger here. I'm gonna hand you this,
only touch it barely with your two fingers. It bones.
Do you want to give him too, just in case. Noah,
we'll walk one up to him if he needs it.
All right, we're gonna have the timer set up for
twenty seconds. Once you put it in your mouth and
close your mouth, it will start. I don't know why

(01:49:18):
I brought my water because I can't even drink. Here
we go. It is the world sours candy. Oh can
you hear me here? Ready? It is two hundred and
fifty g of sour. I don't know what that means
rams gigabytes? Okay, twenty seconds on the clock. When you
put your three two one go in your mouth? Go

(01:49:38):
one two three? Are you going down to fifteen seconds?
How sour is it? I was slapping its slapping his legs.
He's making ten seconds. His head's about waving five seconds,
is shaking three two one time? Oh spit everywhere? Oh

(01:50:02):
he's spinning everywhere. What happened my head? Oh? Was that?
So it's so sour it's hot or something? No, No,
it's just like it's almost like a brain freezing. It's
so sour and it you can't so it's cold. No,
I don't. I was sort of crying. That was so bad.

(01:50:27):
Oh is anybody else curious. No, you want to try
Do you want to try it? I could try it,
but not for twenty seconds? Oh no, no, if you're
gonna do it steff on no, no, no, no, I
just want to put my tongue on it. Here, you
want to put your tongue on it? You want? It's
twenty seconds? Or not? Do it for five seconds? I
don't know, because he's a bit dramatic. At five seconds

(01:50:52):
it looked like his brain was gonna it. Didn't get
bad at five seconds. No, no, put it in there
and close your mouth, set in your mic. Here we go.
Let's see how long you can go. Amy. Yeah, let's
see how long you can go. That's good. Oh okay,
let me, I'll get my coffee. Ready, it's empty. Ready
you can spit it and go out. Then go one, two, three, four, five?

(01:51:19):
But you're good, okay. Ten seconds, keep it twenty, keep
it twenty, Ammy, I'll spit it out. Don't spit it out.
Thirteen she's kicking her feet. Fifteen, don't spit it out, Ammy,
you got it. Nineteen spit it out. She got it?
She did it? Whoa, oh she spit it now she's vomiting. Oh,
she's bombiting. Oh, get up, she's gonna throw over the trash.

(01:51:43):
Oh my goodness, that's disgusting. She dried? Whoa, she's not lacking?
Who was the drama queen? You? Oh what were you doing?
You didn't dry? Maybe it like you don't even know
what you're doing talking through it? What just happen? Um?
It's disgusting. At first you're like, oh, it's not it's nice,

(01:52:07):
and then it instantly switches to like, I'm gonna need
to eat something for sure to get rid of this
because my eyes are watering. It's like a like an
acid type, you know, like when you have acid reflex
and like, say, you eat something and then it comes
back up. That's what it dasts like. It's so gross up. Yeah,
kind of let's save these. We'll have artists come in

(01:52:28):
and be like, hey, nice candy for you. Well, nice
job you two we lost Amy. Good job. It's the
best bits of the week with Morgan number two coming
in at number one today. If you're listening to this
on Saturday, September eleventh, this marks the twentieth anniversary of

(01:52:51):
the nine to eleven attacks. So we brought on Darryl
Worley and he performed his song have You Forgotten, which
is one of the really big emotional nine eleven songs,
And it was a really cool moment to have him
in studio to talk about the inspiration behind that song,
like what all went down? And on the show, y'all
heard me talk about kind of my nine to eleven
moment where I was in the library. I vividly remember it.

(01:53:14):
When you're a kid, you really don't remember much, right, Like,
it's kind of hard to recall events. But I remember
that one in the library. Parents picked me up early
and a somber day. But beyond that, I don't have
a lot of recollection. And as I got older, I
knew it and I, you know, two years ago got
to visit the nine to eleven Memorial in New York,
which was super emotional. Yeah, especially as an adult. Like

(01:53:37):
fast forward eighteen years and I'm like, the last thing
I remember was being in a library, and now this
is what it is. Now. It's a huge hole on
the grounds. It's a really look at it. You just
kind of you know, it's just like wow that because
I've never seen you've never seen him, I've never seen
the towers in real life. I've only seen him in movies,
and you've only like the only recollection I have of

(01:53:58):
that is seeing them on that library moment yet or yes,
what movies have created them? Yeah, exactly. So that was
like my moment and that was like something that was
really emotional for me in recent years. Do you remember
where you were when this happened. Oh? Yeah, I was
in I think towards the end of my high school career,
and we were I forel what class It was in

(01:54:20):
East Coast time, so we were in line with New
York so it wouldn't happened. I think it was an
eight o'clock hour, so it was towards the beginning of
the day, like first or second period, maybe the third period,
And I remember walking into the classroom and it was
one of those things where we had TV's in the classroom.
They were like really crappy TVs, but we had TV's
in the classroom, and it was one of those things
where the principal came on. It was like, everyone, please
turn on Channel two news. Turn on Channel two news.

(01:54:42):
They turned it on. Turn it on. Yeah, And so
they turned it on. After the first plane I just
hit because that's when everyone turned it on. So we
just saw this one tower with smoke coming out of it,
and we're all like, what the heck is that? And
and I didn't really know what the twin towers really was.
I was just kind of like I just knew it
was in New York and the building was on fire,
and I was like, what is going on right now?
And I remember as soon as she turned it on

(01:55:03):
that and like in that exact moment, you saw this
other plane come through and hit the second tower, and
I was like, oh my god, there are planes hitting
buildings in New York. And then it just kind of
hit me and I was like, I was, oh my god.
I feel like like I was like, there's something this
is not right because we didn't know what was happening
at the moment. It's probably seen a documentaries they talk
about they thought maybe some guy was flying a small

(01:55:24):
prop plane and lost control or whatever. But then when
you see a second plane come through and hit you're like, oh,
this is something more than that, Like this is obviously planned.
You know they had they have a motive here. I
just remember just sitting there for a moment, not knowing
how to feel. Also, I was a teenager so you
kind of are in a different space than when you
are as an adult, and as a parent, you kind
of think about things differently, a different kind of perspective.

(01:55:46):
But even just as a kid, a careless team, I
was like, you know, someone who could you know? I
just got my license. It was like that kind of
part of my life. So I was the fun time.
You know, you got a license, You're you're hanging out,
you having a good time, and this happens. You're like,
holy crap, So what does this mean? Like what the
feeling of uncertainty of what does this mean? What does
this mean for us? Because now now our country has
been attacked and we have lived in a place where,

(01:56:09):
for the most part, we're safe. We don't live in
other places overseas and in the Middle East where every
single day they have to worry about if they're going
to make it through the day because bombings and shootings
and terrorist attacks and stuff like that happen every day
in places like that. So for us, we've been blessed
and grateful to and this is a tangent, but like
how do we like how are we picked to take

(01:56:30):
this life? Like you know, when you're born, you're always like,
so what who decides what decides where we live here?
And someone else grows up in poverty in Afghanistan? Like
how has that chosen? You know? Why why am I here?
And I start thinking about all these things like why
am I here in America? Why wasn't I why wasn't
I picked to be born somewhere else and live through this?
And then you start thinking about that perspective of like,
oh my god, here we are in America now, but

(01:56:52):
now America is being attacked and what else is going
to happen? And then next you know, you hear of
another one. The Pentagon gets hit. So we're watching it
all in real time and I think it was my
geometry class. We're watching it all in real time of
the second one hitting the Pentagon, and then now our
schools like, so what do we do? I mean, we're
not subject to terrorist attack in Ovida, Winner Springs, Florida,

(01:57:13):
but we are close to Disney World. So now they're like,
you know, all big tourist places are you know, could
potentially be hit. So living near Disney World, they're like,
all right, everyone in our land and it needs to
be prepared because they could fly a plane or do
something at Disney or Universal or the beaches like anywhere,
And I remember correct me if I'm wrong. I vaguely

(01:57:35):
remember that a lot of things kind of shut down
for a few days. Yeah, it was kind of like
that because we didn't know what was going to happen,
and we were trying to put the pieces together if
more was going to occur, if it was if it
was just this one moment, or if this is going
to be a string of events. You don't know. It's
a lot of uncertainty and a lot of unknowns. So
living in a place like Orlando, which was a hot
spot for tourism and people in an Ashley coming to visit.

(01:57:58):
Could we be you know, could we be next? And
when could it be? Could it be today? Could it
be tomorrow? It could it be next week? Like no
one knew, no one knew, We had no idea. I mean,
we still don't know. Anything can happen at any point
in time. So I just remember being in school seeing
it play out. And then it got to a point
where the fourth one happened, where the plane crash in
that field in Pennsylvania, and then my school will decide, Okay,

(01:58:19):
we need to take action and do something, and so
they I don't know why they did this, but I
remember we immediately did like a emergency evacuation of how
we would handle things if if we were under attack.
So then it was like emergency, it's a drill, but
not a drill because we could be attacked. And they
if they threw a bomb in at Disney World, how
much of the area around Disney is affected. We're maybe

(01:58:42):
twenty miles out, but if you drop a bomb, it
could affect a certain radius around Disney. So what do
we do. So our schools like, well, let's do a drill.
Let's have everyone evacuated, evacuated the school as far as possible.
So then we did this evacuation drill, and I was
and I remember just we all left school, and we're kids,
so we're just kind of like, oh, it's great, we
need to leave school. It's cool. So I remember evacuating

(01:59:03):
and then hopping into my jeep and piecing out, and
my excuse was like, well, I felt unsafe. I want
to leave school. I want to go home. But of course,
being a little not no teenager, I was I want
to get the hell out of here and go to
the beach. So I remember leaving going to the beach,
like we left and went to seven eleven Grabs slurbees,
and and I tailed it out of there because we
took advantage of leaving, but also like we should probably
leave too, just in case something does happen. Let's get

(01:59:24):
out of here. Yeah. So yeah, wow, Yeah, that that is.
And I feel like too after that, I remember like
if we ever went anywhere after that, like even if
we went on an airplane, and of course the security,
you know, that's when that all started. There's a whole
new world of security. Yeah. Like I feel like as
a kid, that's kind of where my anxiety of like

(01:59:47):
large areas and like tragic situations kind of came combined.
Another thing, I remember a stint off of that, like
it was really hard for me to be in like
big locations or crowded spaces after that, because I was
worried anywhere I went that could happen. Right, Like, you
had this realization that anything can happen to you at
any moment. And as a kid, I'm sitting there and

(02:00:08):
I'm having this really big thought that I'm like, oh
my gosh, I could I could not be here after
this and that started that and that has continued in
my life, which is crazy, Like it wasn't until like
this kind of week that I started thinking about it again.
But like after really big tragic moments, that anxiety comes
back every time. Yeah, I don't want to go and

(02:00:28):
be in a crowded space. I don't want to be
where there's not good security around because I'm afraid of
that happening. Yeah, And it's like a really and it's
happened ever since that moment, and that's carried with me
my entire life. And I wasn't even close to it.
So I can't imagine the people that were up there
around those attacks what they carry with them. Yeah, Oh

(02:00:50):
my gosh, anxiety they have even just being a spectator
on the streets. Yeah, you know, like seeing that it
gives you a whole different feeling of being in crowded places,
like you said, I know, Yeah, it's really crazy to
think how our world has changed since that moment. Oh yeah,
and even flying, like like we jokingly say, I'm ready
to fight at any moment in time, But that was

(02:01:11):
one of those things where everything I get on a
plane now like I'm I don't go I know, people
like to drink at the airports and get tossed and
get on the plane and whatever. That's fine, But for me,
I like to go to the plane sober. I'm with you, yeah,
because if something goes down, I'm like, Okay, what could
I use as an object to take out that person?
And I don't know. Airplanes have changed a little bit now.
The cockpit door now has like a lock on it,

(02:01:34):
and it's bulletproof and all these things. But still, you know,
I'm not if I want to be aware and coherent
that if someone tries to take over this plane, they're
gonna they're gonna have to come through me and a
couple other people that I've scouted out. They're gonna come
help me. I'm gonna use my belt as a weapon,
Like what could I use as a weapon? But it
sucks that we have to think that way because we
shouldn't have to think that way. That like how like
how do we need to fight or flight in a
sense in any situation at a venue, on a plane,

(02:01:58):
at school, because the things like Columbine and those theater shootings,
it's almost like those things they happen, they teach us
how to move forward. In life, but it also sucks
that they happened in the first place. It is a
absolute terrible thing that teaches us a really hard lesson
yeah we don't want to learn totally, and also makes

(02:02:18):
you think of like crap as a as a father, now,
like what happened to that that adult or that team
in their life to make them want to do these
things to hurt other people? Like like was there no
one around? No one saw any signs. I always like, wow,
he was a good kid. You're always seen in the news.
He was a good kid. He always kept himself and
he had straight a's and all this stuff, And You're like, well,
there must have been something that showed that this person

(02:02:40):
had some sort of signs of something. Like someone someone
just doesn't go from being a regular everyday kid to
blowing things up or shooting a school down. It's like
what happened? So I always look at it that way
of like like how could you help somebody even in
our everyday life, if someone's down, I'm like, Okay, well
I don't. I don't, I don't. I don't want to
go to the extreme. Okay, this persons Downy're gonna they're
gonna blow us cool, But I'm like, but something could

(02:03:02):
lead to that where someone is down and then they
think of things that they would normally think of because
they're down for whatever the reason may be. So I always,
I guess my point is, I always try to look
at people with a different perspective and a different light
of like, Okay, everyone's hurting in some way? How badly
is somebody hurting? Because you don't want them to take
it out on others? Absolutely, like you just you lead

(02:03:23):
with kindness because you don't ever know what somebody else
is going through. Yeah, and you don't need to be
the reason that something else gets worse, Oh totally, you
don't want to trigger them in some sense. Yes, it's
very easy to be kind to people, and it's very
also easy to get lost in like the hustle bustle
of life and treat people differently because you're struggling or
you're stressed or whatever. Yeah. So like as hard as

(02:03:46):
that is, like being kind no matter what and how
much you don't want to sometimes is like the most
necessary thing for all of us to kind of relearn again, right,
Like we kind of lost sight of that, Like stop
getting stuck in what we are going through and just
be like, Okay, that's my life. Yeah. Total, I'm not
putting that on other people, you know, like I'm going
to be kind and I help them and then like

(02:04:09):
go back and somebody else is going to help me,
because that's how it works, paying it forward. But also
sucks that knowing people out there and they think they
have no one to go to or turn to or
talk to. And I feel like you could find somebody
in your life if you're feeling some sort of if
you're feeling one of these feelings or whatever, you got
to find somebody to talk to. You can't just you
can't let it eat you up. And like, I know,

(02:04:29):
some nice parents are difficult to deal with and they're
always telling me what to do and they will give
me rules. But I guarantee you one of your parents
would listen to you if you came to them with
your issue versus you plotting out a plan to do
something terrible. Yeah. Well, and what's really cool now, you
know the more years that passed by, mental health is
becoming such a appropriate thing to talk about. Right. It's

(02:04:50):
a stigma, yeah, yes, yeah, and it should be talked about.
So it's changing the way that that happens, which I
think is so awesome. Yeah. I just wish it was
changing faster. Yeah, happening faster, totally, It happens sooner. Yes, Yeah,
because it's not It isn't anything that we shouldn't be
afraid to talk about life like that is just what everybody.
Everybody has something right to. It doesn't matter if they

(02:05:12):
decide to deal with that or not. Yeah, but yeah, yeah,
chances are you talking about it's someone you know has
either dealt with it or can relate to it in
some sort of way and give you their wisdom and
knowledge of how they dealt with it, and you can
take their knowledge or at least know that, Hey I
got it off my chest and someone can can relate
with me. That's great. So now I could just move
on from it, yes, or get through it faster, agreed. Yeah.

(02:05:34):
Oh man, I know we had to end on like
a somber moment, and we should because today is a
very important day history in everything that happened. But I'm
glad we got to talk about it, and I'm glad
you shared your stuff that happened. Yeah, because it is
kind of crazy to look back on and see all
of this and kind of relive it. But I think

(02:05:56):
it's important to talk about that's how we remember things
totally and then through music. It's a great therapy. And Darryl,
that's pretty cool to see that performance. Yeah, I mean
pretty cool this song Have You Forgotten? And Alan Jackson
Jackson Jaction added a little h to his name. Alan
Jackson's Where Were You When the World Stopped Turning? Were
two songs that I remember being on repeat in my

(02:06:18):
family's house. Oh yeah, Rayoween as soon as they both
came out. And it's funny, I'd like to know who
I know who came out first. It was Darrel Worley
song came out first, and Alan Jackson came out second.
And I always wonder is Alan Jacksons was already planned
or is a reactionary to Darrell's Well, hey, I talked
about it in the Skinny this second. It came to
him in like a dream. Okay, the chorus of the song.

(02:06:40):
He was like, I almost don't even like feel like
I owned the song because it came out to me
so perfectly. Yeah that it just like came to him
that so obviously it came after later, but it wasn't
planned from the way that he tells that story. Okay,
so I think it just was like something that was
emotional and he must have been thinking about things the Yeah, yeah,

(02:07:02):
that's pretty cool, which is yeah, which is so crazy.
But yeah, those those two songs were so very like,
very much a part of those few years after that,
and then even I know everyone on the show hates Nickelback,
but they had that one song that was pretty big
around that era where they I think they either created
a song or they took one of their songs and
they embedded a bunch of September eleventh like audio into

(02:07:24):
the song. Do you remember that. I don't vaguely remember this.
It's upt a look a up really quick, Nickelback nine
to eleven. Don't say everybody, because I don't hate Nickelback. Okay, cool,
all right, Hero the Hero. It's actually from Spider Man,
but they took Hero and they embedded some like nine.
I remember when they when they first came out with it,
and I remember, like I wasn't there and I hadn't

(02:07:44):
had no personal connection, but I remember hearing that first version.
I think it was in my hometown. It was in
Orlando and XL one to six seven. They played it,
and it was one of those things where just hearing
the lyrics of I'm so high I can I can
hear heaven and a hero can say whatever, and a
hero could save us and not go understand it away.

(02:08:06):
It was beautiful. But and then interweave like like like
nine to eleven calls and like people screaming from the top,
like all that stuff like woven into the song. I
just remember hearing going like, wow, this is so powerful.
So my whole point is just music is a great
therapy for tragic events because it makes you feel and
it generates feelings, but it also brings awareness and all

(02:08:27):
these great things. So those are the three songs for
me that that Alan Jackson, Daryl Worley and then Nickelback's
Hero were like three really big, huge songs that helped us,
I guess in a sense cope with Yeah, the tragedy.
Then I know there's more I'm not thinking of, but
those were like the three like three very big ones. Yeah.
At the time, Oh man, well, I mean now we're

(02:08:48):
about to relive like him performing in studio, and honestly
it was an emotional thing, right, you're looking back twenty
years and he's performing the song. A lot has happened
in those twenty years, but seriously, sit here and listen
to this. He shares the story behind the song, how
it came together for him, which is also inspiring. He
shares you know what he's doing now that still is

(02:09:08):
connected to that in a way, and it was just
really cool. So listen now to Daryl Worley's interview and
him performing have You Forgotten? Number one? The Friday Morning
Conversation with Darrell Walley. Daryl, how are you doing good?
How are you? I'm really glad that you came in.
Well man, thanks for having me. It's I want to
play a few of Darrell's number one's real quick. This

(02:09:29):
is from two thousand and two. I missed my friend.
I miss my friend one my heart. From two thousand
and three. Here is have you Forgotten? Have you forgotten?
How it felt that day? In two thousand and four?
Here is awful, beautiful life. My little brother had a

(02:09:52):
big bad with his wife, and my poor mother said
between movona, I love the crazy dread sometimes jam I
mean that one in a while, man, I missed that one. Well,
it gets still gets a lot of airplay. It's cool song. Yeah,

(02:10:13):
it's been. I think the last time I heard that
was in like a like a Kroger or something, and
I was like, I was like, because sometimes you hear
songs because for me two thousand and four hours in college,
sometimes you hear songs that remind you of like a
certain JOm and that one for sure does awesome. You're
actually here because tomorrow is the twentieth anniversary of nine
to eleven, And when I think about and I just
had a big special with Circle Network in the Opry

(02:10:36):
on the Music of nine to eleven, which is going
to air on Circle Network tomorrow for it's it's a
big two hour special. I'm on that too. Yeah. No,
I know it's part of the reason that we wanted
to get you in here. Cool because we were talking
about a lot of the songs and you know how
it affected us in many different ways. And you know,
whenever you put out a song about nine to eleven,

(02:10:57):
you know, it's really one of those songs that really
reminds me of that time, Like I can remember vividly
whenever it happened. You know. I went to college in
Arkansas at a really small school called Henderson State University,
and we all went into the student union and it
started like two people looking up at a screen in
the corner. Then it was four, and then before you know,
the next twenty or thirty minutes went by, it was

(02:11:18):
forty rows deep of people going, what in the world
is happening. We had no idea what was happening, and
kind of as the events played out, it took music
to kind of get us back to a somewhat normal
place again, right, because for a long time, we didn't
know if we could sing, We didn't know if we
could laugh. You know, we didn't know a lot of stuff.

(02:11:39):
But when we were talking about songs to talk about
in this, you know, obviously you came up and you know,
have you forgotten? You know, it was one of those
songs for us, So talk about this. You go into
a writing room and did you have in mind to
write a song about nine to eleven specifically or did
you just kind of come up in conversation. No. I
had just returned from my first journey uh to Afghanistan

(02:12:01):
to entertain our troops, and I told me my manager
on the way home that I was going to that
I just felt very compelled to do something to honor uh,
you know people, uh like our first responders. We lost
a lot of guys that that day that were trying
to save other people's lives. Obviously, we lost a lot
of citizens, and then we lost a lot a ton

(02:12:24):
of of our good military men and women in the
war zone. Uh, you know, putting the heat on the
on the on the terrorist. And so I just wanted
to write a song that would would um honor all
those people and their families and and you know, for
the loss. And so yeah, we sat down with intentions
of writing the song, but we we didn't have intentions

(02:12:47):
of of you know, trying to get it on the
radio or anything like that. I thought, I told when
my co writer, I said, this is something that we
could definitely use to you know, on my return journeys
to the war zone. I can play it, you know,
I can play it for when I do special things
with police departments or fire departments, and it'll be a

(02:13:09):
well received thing. But I had a single own the
radio that was doing very well, and I had a
brand new album out, and so we weren't looking to
disrupt all that. It was just it was just a
song we wanted to ride. You know, the wild part
about it is that it takes sometimes twenty thirty forty
weeks for a song to get to the top of
the charts, but this song impacted so fast. First of all,

(02:13:31):
I was number one for seven weeks, but it only
took five weeks to get there, right like people, It
just shook people because of the message and how you
sing it. And so we wanted to bring in today
with tomorrow'll be in that anniversary of nine to eleven
and just ask if you'd mind plan Have you forgotten
for us? Not at all? You play You still played
this one a lot? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, we're This

(02:13:51):
year's been unusual because coming out of COVID, you know,
we didn't expect things to just explode. But it's almost
like we have re released a song, and because of
the twentieth anniversary, it's just been wide open. So I'm
not complaining in any way. Here is Daryl Worley. But
have you forgotten? I hear people say we don't need

(02:14:28):
this war. I say, there's some things we're fighting for.
Him what about our freedom? This piece of ground you
didn't get to keep back in day? They say, we

(02:14:50):
don't realize the mess with getting in Before you start
your preaching, let me ask you this, my my friend.
Have you forgotten how it felt that day to see
your homeland undefined and her people blown away? Have you

(02:15:15):
forgotten when those towers failed we had neighbor still inside
going through a living hell, and you say we shouldn't
worry about been a loving Have you forgotten? Have you forgotten?

(02:15:46):
Have you forgotten? Dear Wharlings? Great job, thank you and
your latest album too. Yeah, I want to talk about
this because you know you're about making a difference, and
so twenty two will you talk about the importance of
that record? Well, you know, I'll be honest with you, Bobby.

(02:16:10):
It it blows my mind every day I talk to
someone because we're kind of in that mindset right now
that doesn't know that we have twenty two service members,
men or women taking their own life every day in
this nation, and you know, because of what they've been through,
because of their PTSD, because of whatever situation it is.

(02:16:31):
That to me doesn't matter. We as a nation should
be taking care of those people, and so our government
doesn't seem to be really really active in that. So
Charlie Daniels pulled me aside about a month or two
before he passed away, and he said, son, this this
stuff's going to be up to us. It's going to
have to come from you know, a different place, maybe

(02:16:53):
the private sector or whatever. But but we need to
get busy at this work because these people are suffering
and and they've given more to this nation and more
to its people than anybody that I can think of.
So you know, what do we owe them, Well, we
owe them whatever we can do to help them. And
so twenty two is that at twenty two is the
title cut. We have a song out off of that

(02:17:15):
right now called Send to Me, and our plan is
to kind of release everything from the project between now
and Veterans Day and just to make people aware of it,
and hopefully we can you know, get some streams and
downloads and and sell some of that product, and we're
going to give proceeds to some different charitable organizations that

(02:17:36):
will make a difference in that area. You can also
order some of Darrel's nine to eleven Have You Forgotten
Leatherwood Whiskey coming out that's raising money from military charities.
UM Daryl Worley dot com. I've never had a drink
of alcohol. What's the difference between bourbon and whiskey and taste? Well,
bourbon is a whiskey or some people would say that's
not true. But so let's talk about the difference between

(02:17:58):
bourbon and right. They're made made from different things. But um,
and the bourbon is a little more it's just a
little smoother, right. Whiskey has a little bit more of
an age too. So if I were gonna have a
first drink, I'd probably go bourbon before whiskey because it's smoother.
Some people would say you probably ought to get you,
you know, a slow gin fizz or vodka drink first,

(02:18:19):
but but uh, but yeah, I would say drink the
bourbon first. I probably go peanuck a lot. Now there's
a great idea. Well, you guys, uh, you know check
out twenty two. Uh did followed Daryl at Darryl Worley
on Instagram and we just appreciate you coming in. Man,
can I say this one? I feel like I'm on
I feel like I'm on American Idol and I'm too old.
