Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, the Bobby Bones post show, pre show, Let's
get on some flashback Friday. The year is two thousand
and four, Flashback Friday. I guess I'd been to the
mornings for about a year and a half, had no
idea what I was doing. I was doing such dumb
bits as I would take a ball like one of

(00:22):
those foam balls, not quite a whiffle ball. But you
know how you have the best the set, the baseball set,
Oh yeah, yeah, phone ball would we'd play a game
called will it break? Will anything Break? And I'd take
it and hit as hard as I could into the
radio studio and just see if anything will break. That
it's premiere content. We should do that next week. There
are studios a lot bigger. Now. You gotta imagine my

(00:44):
first ten twelve years in radio. We were an old
crappy studio, old crappy equipment, had nothing, no help, nothing,
but I played, and most of the times they didn't
break because it was so old. Like the computer we
had was like the eighties. That stuff when't breaking. Two
thousand and four is a year, though. The biggest country
song at this time here was Alan Jackson. Remember when
remember when owns died. New Bonne Live was changed. Yes,

(01:14):
Sam read range. We came together, Phil the part rogue
each other's hearts. Remember when the biggest pop song is outcast.
I liked the way you move and the biggest thing

(01:45):
in pop culture is Janet Jackson. A halftime of the
super Bowl with Justin Timberlake. JT tore her top off
and you saw her nipple and that affected What are
you doing? Why are you licking your bottles? The water
always Kinna the weirdest I know. I know, I felt
like a cast. He was looking at her bottle. No,
no, no no, the top of the bottle. Anyway, Janet Jackson,

(02:07):
you saw our boob FCC hopped in changed my life. Accident.
They started to go, this is an accident, right, That's
why it was in court. Today is the deadline to
take your FCC test. People. Thank you, not for our listeners,
I'm telling you, although you're letting the listeners. Got yelled
that out. After we're done with this, well, I might

(02:29):
not think of it then. Good point. Um. We talked
about it on the show. Because you're the reason I
have to take the test. That's two thousand and four.
Flashback Friday. There you go flashback Friday. Let me mention
on the Bobby Cast today we have on Don McLean
Bye Bye, this American Pie Drome, Chevy to the Living
and the Levie was dry. That guy he's all old

(02:51):
now he's in seventies, but just looking back at fifty
years since that song came out. So we talked to him. Um,
not only that, scoop is Steve comes in because I'd
never talked to him long form. We learned a lot
about Scoobaste. Yeah, so me, Eddie might d and Scooba
Steeve set around, laughed a lot and learned about Scuba's life.
He has a cool story, very interesting. Yeah. Um always

(03:13):
has cool stories though, so you can hear that on
the Bobby Cast. We did talk about the day the
music died. Literally that song was written about from years
to playing crash all the new music. So check out
the Bobby Cast today. Would love that Chi Hum worked
that out. That done, making sure we don't forget anything.

(03:34):
By the way, today Lunchbox and Eddie's romantic gestures, We're due. Yep,
all right, did you get yours done? Oh I've been done? Yeah, yeah, man,
I gave you guys. Oh he you keep extending it
and this guy just doesn't come through. You want me
to run you the day of my life? Do you
really want me to give you the day to day
and talk about you have time to go over and

(03:56):
play golf at Bobbies. That's shouldn't play this week? We
didn't play this week. No, we haven't played in a while.
It's been busy, man. But I mean a lot of
romantic gestures, for sure, go ahead to pepper it in there,
go ahead, Okay, I'll give you the last one. I
did pretty good. All. I got home and I said, honey,
take I don't call her honey. I didn't say that.

(04:17):
I said, boots, That's what I call her. Go take
the rest of the day off, Go get your nails done,
your hail, your hair done, whatever. I'm picking up the
kids from school and I'm gonna have the kids till
nine o'clock tonight. You do whatever you want. And she did,
and she took the whole day. She went and got
her nails done, she got a massage, and she just
drove around listen to music. And she said, that was

(04:38):
the most wonderful thing I've ever had. Thank you, and
very thoughtful. Yes, romantic too, because when she got back, okay, lunchbox,
can you beat that? Yeah? I mean I do think
that's extremely thought. Thank you. You should do on occasion.
She really needed that, she said, right right, But it
doesn't really fit what the literal definition of romances. You

(05:00):
keep trying to shove. This romance thing was a bit
from eight months ago. I know, bones, and it's hard.
I'm like, what do I do? Even married fifteen years? Romance?
It's easy. You go to this website ww dot Victoria's
secret dot com. See keep talking, So look up? What
did you do? Is this what you did? Yeah? Okay,
tell what I did? Okay, found a nice bra and

(05:22):
panty see and a teddy ordered it. Adam, what go ahead?
I'm listening. Yeah, you're being rude. This is romance. Okay.
So I had it delivered and I hit it and
I said, hey, can you go pick up the kid
from school today? So she goes today. He put it
on watching this guy. Guys. This is my romance. Okay.

(05:46):
So I left the box on the front porch. So
when she came back, she's like, oh wow, And I
had a little note said don't worry when you come inside.
Dinner is already cooked. I hope you'll wear this tonight.
So dinner was cooked, put the kids to bed, and
good boom. It's pretty romantic romantic, but I also want
to throw my mouth. What do you mean you want
to talk in your mouth? Because because the teddy or

(06:09):
the dinner, then you that is lunchins. The only difference
is that he actually did something and it was really
so you said, go leave the house, I'll pick up
the kids, which is what dad should do. Like you
weren't doing anything, and romance aren't always the same thing,
and we get people going with that's romantic. He wouldn't

(06:30):
made me a spare key for the house. I'm just wait,
I've been waiting for that. That's not that's a great
So the only thing romantic in this is that he
bought Brian panties. She's not home. He put a note. Okay,
he saw the note, walked in and you've already read that.
Hey where this? So then that probably makes her feel
sexy like character were suggestive of an idealized view of reality.

(06:56):
Whoa to repeat that? It's like eating the most perfect
situation ever. You're doing it for them, and okay, you
know what Eddie you bom Thank you because it feats
that totally fits the definition. I think yours is awesome.
Thank you. I just think that one. This wasn't a competition, right,
it was just a challenge. You didn't even do yours.
You just remember something that you did. I did it

(07:17):
last week? Okay? Yeah, well lunch a box of You
win the money, Oh boy, yes there's no money. You
win the day off for it. Oh you win the
free round of golf agus really yeah, Augusta Yeah sorry,
I mean if that really was the prize, you know
he would bring Oh yeah, he had written a poem

(07:38):
a boon box over his head. I thought about writing
a song, writing a poem, even doing a piece of
arts like Amy's been painting. Yeah, that's you doing. That's
good thoughts. I might do that next week. I thought
about private plane and taking her to you know, Seattle
for dinner. But I mean I thought about it. Yeah,
I guess here's you thought about doing a lot of things.
I thought about taking her to Paris. I still have
time and I will continue to do that. Here's a question.

(08:01):
I think this comes from one of Amy's friends, where
she asked, is the guy that plays video games a
whole lot a red flag? Yeah, six hours, but I
don't understand walking through it. Okay. So she just started
talking to a guy they met on the dating app,
and I think it came up. They're like, yeah, would
you do say? I played video games and I played

(08:22):
with my boys, and like, I was on there for
six hours. And she didn't know if that was a
red flag or not. And so we started breaking it down,
and I was going to like, well, she used the
comparison that she spent about however many hours binging the
Queen's gambit, but she didn't know if that would be
considered like the same thing, or if video gaming for

(08:43):
that many hours in a row in one day is
a red flag. If it wasn't keeping him from doing
what he needed to do. Who cares what people are
doing with their recreation time, right, and he's got his
friends on. Maybe you don't get to play a lot
and you hop on and play. I played for their
four hours. Sometimes we would back in the day, Oh yeah,
I probably did that last week. It's not a red flag.
But you don't have time for anything, okay, Okay, is

(09:05):
no type of romance. Last do you want me to
go through my day. Guys, how what a day in
the life of mine is? What are you playing exactly? What? Oh? Yeah,
is your player built up on Friday nights? Yeah? Is
your player built up? Yeah? I mean I honestly at
this point, I can't play for more than an hour
without being like, I'm over it. But if it's recreation time,
do whatever you want. If it's not keeping you from

(09:26):
work or your kids in your life, you're gonna be
doing something. Why not be playing a video game? And
there is this negative connotation with the video games, which
isn't fair. That's why she was concerned. She's like, I
don't know if I'm judging for no reason because she's
just not ever, she's never had dated somebody that has
gamed before. Not for no reason. I understand there is
a negative outlook on me and people who play video games.
I had it too, But it's a great escape. It's

(09:48):
not keeping you from doing what's supposed to be doing,
and it helps you get to a more healthy place,
great bones. I think the question is is it loser ish? No,
she's just saying, is it a red flag that, like
the gate, he's a gamer and the video game is
going to get in the way a bus. But like
our friend the other day, Bones, he had a problem
with his console and he was on a customer of whatever,
customer yeah service for like an hour because his player,

(10:14):
his player that he's built, is not working correctly. Great,
And I'm like, that was an hour of you guys
talking about something that's not real. But that's an hour
to do what he chooses. I may get it, but
it is a little loseriss do you think about it? Well?
Like I try to tell my wife, like, I got
Player of the Half and I show her a picture.
She's like, this does not impress me, But oppressor, it
may show impress impresses me when you get it. Thank

(10:35):
you because you stuck whenever I play with you. I
like the way Eddie calls it lusaris because someone worked
on something and wants to get it fixed. But Eddie
will play for four hours trying to build that fake
character up. If I lose, It's one of those things though,
I have to slap myself in the face and be like, dude,
you're being a loser right now. I would be irritated
if I had played for twenty thirty hours earned something
with this character. And then it not do the job

(10:56):
that i'd been I got a sight because we're in it.
But if you're a little birdie flying over and looking
at it and saying like, oh, I don't care about
low birdies with this in life, people judging us everywhere
we go all the time. I agree, I'm worrying about that,
thank you. I'm a gamer and I agree, But man,
sometimes I'm just like, dude, you're kind of a loser.
I think you played more than I do. I play
a lot, just on the weekends, not the week I

(11:17):
can't play on the weekday day in the life of
a day of what I have to do. As Friday's
my day, Like everyone goes to bed at ten, and
on Fridays, I played till about three in the morning.
Oh my gosh, red Flag, I was going to divorce me.
Bobby checked out. I know I did check out. I

(11:38):
just got a note from Oh, the trees marked with
a spot of yellow green orange at the base or
to be trimmed, Like they're driving around in my house
yet spray painting trees. Yeah, yeah, I get that. WTF. No,
that's that's just for them to know what they need
to work on on that tree. I don't have to
go do it today. No, it's a color code. Oh,
I don't know. Maybe it's you have to do. Is

(11:59):
that what they said? Our tree program is key to
preventing power outagies of providing you with the most reliable
service possible. Oh, you had working in the neighborhood to
clear trees, limbs and other plant growth in your electric
lines and equipment. Check mark trees marked with a spot
of yellow. Yeah, they're they're marking it. Are at the
base to be trimmed, so I don't have to worry
about that. No, No, they're marking it. And just so
you know, if you see little dots on your tree,

(12:19):
that's what they mean. Um, I think that's it. You
guys are good, yeah, man, Yeah. Everybody have a good
weekend and play a lot of video games tonight, are you?
I can't when I'm gone on weekends on shoots and
I watch that you said you're gonna ask them for
a little PS five and a Wi Fi. So I
have they put a PS four in my trailer, right,
That's what I have. And I can't go and be
Johnny Diva and be like, guess I want to five

(12:40):
because it's hard to get a five again. Why not
you'd seem a little loser issue if we did that day. No,
it's just I would. There's not good WiFi where we
are anyway. Yeah, and then you don't want to be back.
I don't want to be that guy. Yeah. Next thing
you don't want de moins like bones. Well, he's gonna
play his video games. He's secrets demanding video game. I

(13:00):
get that. That's it. Thank you, guys, have a great weekend.
Don't forget if you missed any of the show and
you don't want to go back and listen to every episode.
This week, Morgan does a best of the Week podcast
that comes out on Saturdays, and then we're putting one
of our Nashville Podcast Network shows on Sunday. So always
something for you. Thank you. Have a good da everybody, Alaska,

(13:31):
Hello friends, Good morning, Welcome to Friday's show. Good Morning Studio,
Morning Big Show. Darius Rucker, Parker McCollum, and Matt Stell.
He is bringing his guitar and he's gonna play so
fantastic show. Friday Morning Dance Parties. Mike d did get
Pepper sprayed? We have some audio we'll tell you that
story coming up later in the show. It isn't something

(13:55):
super crazy, meaning it wasn't like, but think it's interesting
to know, especially if you want to carry that around
if someone were to attack you, because I did see
some people going, oh, that's good to know that it
does this because I've always carried around and never knew
if it works. That story's coming up later on in
the show. And if you have to go away, come
back and check out the podcast. Okay, why don't I

(14:17):
go to Carrie and Saint Charles Missouri, who's on the phone.
Hey Carrie, how are you good? How are you pretty good?
What can I do for you? So a couple of
years ago, you guys did a segment. It was right
after Amy got her kids, and it was I think
it was what you're grateful for? And then what keeps
you up at night? And I still remember to this
day Amy's answers. It touched me to my soul. She

(14:39):
said like she was grateful for a bottle of motion
because her kids had such dry skin, and they like
wouldn't let her put it on, and they finally did.
And then what kept up at night is that she
slept on the floor with her. I think I don't
know if it was her daughter or her son, but
they slepped on the floor because they didn't even know
what a bed was. And I thought that was incredible.
And now all of you guys have had to big

(15:00):
life changes. You know, you was getting engaged and Amy
and Eddie with the kids, and then lunchbox of his.
I wanted to ask that question. Now, if you guys
could go around and see, you know, name one thing
that you're grateful for and one thing that keeps you
up at night. Okay, you guys think about that. I'll
go first. I am grateful for in the last couple
of years. What's different, obviously, it is meeting spending time

(15:22):
with getting ready to marry my fiance Caitlin. Just a
game changer. I always thought that stuff was fake where
people would go, no, I met the person and you
could just tell. I always thought it was fake until her.
So just a complete shift in my life. So like
I'm driving on the road and all of a sudden,
let me take this detour. I'm not sure, and then

(15:43):
it ends up being the greatest short ever I've ever
been on. So for sure with her, is that good thing?
What keeps me up at night honestly, is you know,
we're getting married late spring summer. We've already had to
delay it. But with that comes all right, we're gonna
have kids at some point. Like that's a but I'm like,
I never had a dad, or saw a successful relationship

(16:04):
or have any skills that I was able to learn
by watching, and so I'm like, well, I'm probably gonna
be a terrible dad. I never saw or experienced what
was right, and so that keeps me up at night
a little bit, going, dang, I wish I would have
some had some sort of example growing up on what
I was supposed to do. So yeah, I think that

(16:25):
is what I'm grateful for. But also what keeps me
up at night also the ratings from my new show
that's coming out later on, but mostly have first one
you amy for me. I am super thankful for therapy.
And what keeps me up at night is learning to
set boundaries. And you know how that might affect certain people,

(16:48):
but I'm trying to practice what did I do now?
Not you? Well, I mean maybe it's in friendships and
relationships all kinds of things you can set boundaries, but
I'm not used to it. So it definitely keeps me
up because you get worried that I'm letting someone down
or hurting someone's feelings when really it's not anything I
should think twice about because boundaries are important, So that
that does keep me up for sure. But that's why

(17:10):
I also circle back to why I'm thankful for therapy.
Well too, when you get older, you don't have time
for as much bull crap, and you start to go,
I just don't care, Like this isn't that important in
my life, so I'm not gonna put a lot of
time into it and make it that important. So true,
and sometimes that's a boundary of I just don't have
time for this crap. Right, My boundary is I'm time

(17:31):
for you because you're dramatic the end, not worried about it,
no drama, because you don't exist in my little space anymore.
And that's just because we get old and tired. Yeah, well,
it's not even just boundaries regarding to anything dramatic or drama,
but just healthy boundaries for yourself. That totally makes sense.
And if other people are aware of boundaries too, then
they get it. Other people dramatic people exactly, Eddie, I

(17:55):
say I'm grateful for the strength that God gives me
to be a parent for four kids. Like that's tough
and I don't know how I do it. There are
certain days or weeks I go through and I'm just like,
I don't know how I did that. I tell I
would have quit a long time ago. Um, so that's
a that's a big one. I don't know how it happens.
So thank you God for doing that for me, giving
me that strength I am. It keeps me up at night.
I would say, just my just worried about this job,

(18:18):
like just a little bit, you know, Um, I think
it's just a weird time for everyone and we don't
know nothing's guaranteed, and I just hope that we have
a job. What do you know that I don't nothing, nothing,
But you know, you talked to a lot of people.
They're losing jobs left and right, and you just worry
that that that could happen to anyone at any moment, lunchbox.
I am grateful for the invention of the lottery because
it allows me to dream big and imagine my life

(18:40):
when I hit the lottery and becomes super rich, and
what I'm gonna do and what keeps me up at night?
Is my kid in the middle of the night yelling,
dadda dad, d my blanket, my blanket, or I need
a hug that keeps me up at night because there's
three thirty in the morning and they're yelling. It literally
keeps literally keeps me up in night. I do that

(19:01):
same thing with Caitlin. No blanket, Mamma, blanket, Carrie. Thank
you for calling. Are you satisfied with those answers? I am,
and yes, it just yep, it's great. Just listen about
the kids because I have two kids myself, so the
literal keeping you up at night, and then also you know,
just thinking about keeping up at night just does and

(19:23):
getting married and stuff that is. Yeah, it's all all big, exciting,
exciting things for you guys. So thanks for having me
on the show. You guys are awesome. Thanks carry have
a good day you too. We're so adult now, I
know we are, and it's a it's a change that
I've had to embrace because for most of my career
I was the youngest to do it. I was twenty

(19:45):
two twenty three doing mornings in a big market and
syndicating myself, and I was like oh, look at it.
And now I'm forty. Like I'm I'm an adult. I'm
a grown man. You are, you know, don't make me
go full Gundy on you. I'm forty. Uh So, yeah,
we're getting there. I'm maybe I'm getting to that part

(20:06):
of my life a little later than some people. But
I think a little earlier I was doing other parts
of my life. Sure that some people. So we're all
just figuring it out the best way we can. Oh,
by the way, we're so adult. Mike gets spread to
the pepper straight Later in the show, let me just
put that there too. We're about to talk to Parker McCollum.
You guys may know him from this song Pretty Heart.
What does that say? He's also got a brand new

(20:30):
song called to Be Loved by You? So why you always?
Why it's quiet? When I know you maybe gonna be
a big star for many, many years to come. I'm
twenty eight years old. He was invited to play the

(20:51):
Grand Old Operate this weekend. Now I host and produce
the Opery on Circle Network, which is a TV version
of it, and so Dirk's is playing it. But here's
the clip of the FaceTime call with Dirks when Dirk's
invited him up. I'll be honored if you come out

(21:42):
Circle Networks Facebook page or heck on the Circle Network.
But Parker is debuting tomorrow night, Saturday night. So are
you nervous at all? Or is this something you're really
looking forward to. I won't be nervous until you know
tifteen seconds how we're supposed to walk out there. So um,
I'll keep it pretty cool and then I'll be like
manybot play the Grand ol Opry. Did you buy an

(22:04):
outfit just for the Grand ol Opry? I did not.
I have a It's funny you ask. I don't plan
my outfits ever. But I did plan on this one,
and I found it actually in my granddad's clauset when
I was home for Christmas? Is it his or yours?
Turned out to be one of my uncles, I think,
But it's just a great shirt. So he was a

(22:25):
great cowboy and had been a lot of style when
he wanted to. So I'm stealing a little bit. Stilled
these days? Who's going to be in the audience? You know,
it's kind of crazy. I didn't think that this many
people would come as far as too. I'm related to
and stuff my family. I got a big family on
both sides, and I think every last one of them
is coming. So oh wow, yeah, that'd be real cool.

(22:45):
How much can you bench press? I got a whole
list of questions here. Yeah. How much can you bench press? Parker? Oh?
I don't I mean just one time? Yeah? Yeah, I'll
watch your max goodness, I don't know. I had two
hundred and forty fifty pounds probably maybe geez, it's not
a lot. Yeah, heck, ye asks a lot. Here's the
thing about Parker, he's ripped. He's he's I've said this before.
When you look at him as a dude, you're either

(23:07):
gonna be jealous of them or you're gonna be a
hater for a second until you're jealous of them and
like them. Yeah, because because he just has it all.
He's a he's such a good singer. He's come up
playing the heart. You know, he's playing small clubs around Texas.
Now he's blowing up nationally like he didn't just get
his handed to him. And also he's like a great
looking dude. It's like, right, Eddie, Yeah, he's a great

(23:28):
looking Thank you. I just needs someone to back angry
with you. Okay, how does that make you feel, Parker
when we do that? Well, I just I need to
call in every morning, so y'all do that every morning
to start my day like that. Let me ask you
about your new song to be Loved by You again.
There's there's a lot of love and your two singles here.
Is this about a specific person? Yes it is, but

(23:48):
you know, everything really was totally fine. Whenever I wrote
that song, it was more of me like thinking about
it from that angle and thinking about the relationship from
that angle and trying to write a song about it.
So I think it turned out well. You wrote this
with Red Aikins who not only is a great songwriter,
has so many number one but also it's humongous in
the nineties. Did you write that with him in person

(24:09):
or did you guys get on the computer and do that. No,
you know, we wrote this. It was before COVID that
we wrote this. We had been It's one that I
had fun up there before I was living there full
time and went over to his I think we're at
his publishing company or his management company or something like that,
and didn't really know each other very well at the time,
and I was like, I had dispersed in this chorus,

(24:30):
and I was like, Hey, do you want to help
me finish this? And he was like, absolutely, want to
help you finish that. So we do. All right, Parker
McCallum's on about to let him go here for in
a second, but I have a couple other things here.
Do you still play violin at all? Absolutely? I don't
know how that guy I played. I was last chair
in orchestra in fifth and sixth grade, you know, And
I get asked that all the time. So here's what

my dear, I don't give a damn. But they were like,
all right, fine, US five thousand. We're keeping that line
in there. Who find them? The Universal movie Group? You're
making something up right now? Is stop sag? I don't know.
I wondered if it was like the FCC tight thing,

(26:18):
because I have a little experience with that myself. Yeah,
but you were fined one million dollars. I didn't even
say anything bad. Okay, next number four. Now, speaking of
bad words, cursing raises our pain tolerance by about fifty percent.
And you're someone you used to cuss and then for
years you haven't. Have you noticed a difference in your
pain tolerance. No, I haven't said a curse word in

(26:41):
probably three or four years at this point. And I
hate pain Amwini just the same. I've always hated it. Yeah.
I was reading a thing that if you like, just
need to go yell. Sometimes if you yell a particular
word and you scream it, you feel better. I pulled
the I was peel on my tone enail off to day.
Why because it was too long with your fingers not well, No,

(27:05):
that was a problem, and I tore it off too
much and was killing bones, and I limp around the
house and She's like, Kaitlyn's like, why are you limping?
I was like, I tore my tone nail and she
was like, hey, yeah, I know it hurts, but that's
what you get. She hates when I pull my fingernails

There's got to be one in all of them. It's
already number two. So a grocery store once closed down
so that Michael Jackson could fulfill his dream of going

(28:11):
to a supermarket and do some shopping on his own.
He wanted to experience what it was like to put
things in a basket. And then they filled the store
with his friends that were pretending to be strangers shopping,
so he could just have that overall experience that he
literally never got to have. His childhood was just robbed
from him. So sad. That might be the most least

(28:33):
fun fact I've ever heard in my life. Ever. It
stinks and you look at a guy who was that rich,
and you're like, he had everything, but he never had
to mature out of that that young, young, young age
because he was so famous, he wasn't forced to. Yeah,
that stinks. I'm watching that Tiger Woods documentary. I felt
bad for Tiger One was the same same feeling. Oh

latest from Nashville and Tullywood Morgan number two thirty second
Skinny Carly Pearce is dropping a seven song EP. It's
called twenty nine and will be released on February nineteen.
I was so excited that I wanted to share them

(29:57):
with you, to introduce you to who I've always been
and who I am as an artist, a person, and
a woman who understands. Dan and Shay released a new
song called Glad You Exist, Take them just to take
it in hand, something so bad. Matt Stolle released a

(30:25):
new song called that Ain't Me No More. She's So
So Bussy, then Nack Dead Dress and the Floor She
found one and is killing me. That ain't me no more.
I'm Morgan number two. That's your skinny hat. It's time

(30:46):
for the good news. Utchbox, something Good. Jason Schneedman has
been cutting hair since he was fourteen years old and
he's now fifty years old, and he says, you know
what a haircut can change someone's life. It gives them confidence.
So he's been cutting hair, but then he's been to
rehab four times. He was homeless for two years, and

(31:07):
once he got sober sixteen years ago, he said, you
know what, I want to give back to the homeless
and give them confidence. So he started the Men's Groomer
charity organization. Him and his people go around in California
and give homeless socks, food, and a free haircut. Man.
That's awesome. He's been through it all. He's given back.
That is what it's all about. That was tell me
something good. Down sorry up to day. This story comes

(31:32):
us from Oakland, California. A man was at the airport.
His flight's delayed. He's upset. So what's he do? Calls
in a bumb threat because he's mad at the airline
for having a delayed flight. If there's no there's no
foresight with these folks, No, they don't really think it'
through him. What do you do? You just call the
line and then say, hey, there's a bomb like I

(31:54):
don't know, I don't know. You call like the Southwest
Airlines gate and do you think a voice like all right,
the coracts, this is Nico Jackson. Don't look under the table,
just leave so many questions. Yeah, the bomb threat. Think
it seems to never work out for folks, but it
doesn't really make sense because he's mad. The plane is delayed,

(32:14):
so telling them there's a bomb in your it's like
it's gonna blow if you don't go faster. Okay, I'm
lunchboxed at your bone Head store of the day, The
Friday morning conversation with Darius Rugger. Darius, what's happening dude? Bobby?
How you doing? Man? Hey good? I hate to do this,
but I'm gonna have to lead with the story. Just

(32:34):
my people demand it. You know what I'm gonna ask
you about? Right? What the eyehop story? I know I
can't believe that made the news. Let me let I've
often said that Darius's country music's nicest guy. He's just
my favorite. Been nice to me since I was seventeen
till today. Shouldn't even be that nice to me, but
he is. And I read the story that comes out

(32:56):
that Darius goes into an eyehop, buys everybody dinner in
the whole place, make the news, and then makes national news.
It's viral. Your viral at Eyehop. So tell me what
really happened in your mind. I've done that several times
at places. I was in Eyehop. I was the only
way to play golf with Jack and I stopped to
eat at the Hype and I was looking around and

(33:16):
there was a bunch of families in there. There was
like it was a sun I think a Sunday morning.
It was just a lot of families and there a
lot of kids, and I was about to leave it.
I was looking around and I was like, man, you know,
times are hard. These people are here trying to give
their kids. I remember what it meant to me if
we went the eye Hoop as a kid, and it's
like giving their kids a morning of fun and joy.
And I was just like, I'm just gonna And I
walked by and I know the guy, and I said, hey, man,

(33:37):
how long want to take you to calculate everybody's check in,
he said about a minute, and I said, okay, well
I want to play for everybody, and you know, then
I took the way staff and I laughed. I didn't
think it would ever make the news. That was shocking.
When you see it make the news, are you like, huh,
how does this make the news in such a crazy
time when the news is you know, just often so volatile.
That's exactly what I thought. I was like, there's too

(33:59):
much going on in the world people that care up
from Bubby buying breakfast for people fbihop, but uh, you know,
it was crazy. What kind of tip is Darius? When
you like, what's the percentage on a tip left? I left?
I left one hundred percent on the whole, So you
did one hundred percent on one hundred percent of the restaurant? Yeah, day,
all right, Well, anybody have any other questions about this

(34:20):
before I just had to lead with that amy anything, Yes,
And what's Darius's eyehop order? Like? Had you not bought
for everybody else, I mean I imagine your bill, maybe
it would have been like ten bucks, but my order
is pretty big. I like to eat what I could.
I hope you I gotta get the biscuits and gravy
and and you know, and eggs and all that stuff.
Gotta get grits, man coming up stuff, and so it's

(34:40):
it's a lot of food for me. Yeah, there he is,
Darius Rucker. Let's talk about music for a second. Beers
and Sunshine. Looks like it could be your tenth number
one in country music, the big ten, the double digits.
Tell me, tell me about how once you hit ten,
that's how we know you're gonna be around for a while.
Like that matters at all. Once you hit ten, Darius,
we know you're gonna be here forever. How's that feeling.

(35:01):
Somebody said to me that the day it was going
to be ten, and it really hit me, like that's
crazy number. Man. I didn't think, you know, I would
have one little ten. So I hope we get to ten.
I love the song. You wrote the song too, huh. Yeah,
you know it was a fun song. The right with
it was fun so on the right because quarantine that
just started, the pandemic had really just hit, and I'd
come back from Europe and I moved to Nashville and

(35:23):
it was like nothing to do but play golf, That's
all there was, and uh, the guys were like nobody's
out on their boats and stuff, and we just decided
to write a half fun song about what was going on,
and uh, you know how glad we did. Let me
ask you about when you hosted the CMAS, because you've
done it all on every stage for you know, in
different formats. What is it like hosting a network television show?

(35:44):
That was pretty amazing? That was one of those things
I never even dreamed, really dreamed about it. I joked
about it, but I'm never gonna host the c Amazing
it was. Reeva was amazing. She was such a pro
and such a help to me and such a great friend.
We had a blast, But that was That is the
night I'll never forget. Did it blur to you or
do you remember the night vividly? I remember it like

(36:06):
it happened yesterday, vividly because it was so fast, you know,
like the rehearsal took two days, I seemed like, and
then when the show when it just went by so fast.
But I remember it vividly. Did you and Reba become
better friends because you were together rehearsing a lot? Like?
Are you closer today than you were before? The Cmas
and we were friends before, and you know, we we

(36:26):
we've done some stuff together and we love to hang
out and laugh and she makes me laugh like crazy.
But yeah, we're definitely much better friends after doing all
that work together. Who do you look at in your
phone and go, it's really freaking cool. I get to
be friends with this person TechEd me yesterday and that
still makes me go, that's crazy, Tiger. I've noticed that
he was eighteen and it still freaks me out. What

(36:48):
do you have him saved in your phone? As old?
That's how you know you're super close someone. Yeah, and
you nickname them because I have Darius and minus drug
just one word, that's what I'm talking about. You don't
need this last name. You're just Bobby Darius rutgers On

(37:09):
with Bears and Sunshines killing It probably gonna be number
one at the end of this week. Before we go,
I have a few product pitches for you. I've come
up with a few ideas I think we can invest
and go into business together. If you'd like to hear them,
I would love to hear them, all right. Number one,
forget the Kylie Jenner lip kit. That's totally twenty twenty.
We're rolling out the Darius Rucker lip kit to make
your limps like fuller than ever before. We call it

(37:30):
the Rutger pucker. O take that as a no. All right,
let's go. I don't think I would that one. Let's
do the next one. How about lollipops. I love a sucker.
I go to bed pretty much every night I have
a I have a lollipop I posted on Twitter before.
Lollipops in the shape of Darius Rutger's head. We call
them Rucker suckers. Okay, I'll go. Okay, you don't like

(37:58):
any of those, I'll give you one more. How about
we open up a pizza in wings place. We call
it Mother Rutgers Pluckers. That one, I'm all right. Our
friend Darius Rutgers, Hey, who is it? Who's who? Are
you having? The Super Bowl? Who's winning? I like the
over a lot points. He's not picking a team, he's

(38:18):
picking I like the Chiefs. But I will never bet
against Tom Brady ever again, as long as I live there.
He is, Darius. Good to see my Frank. Congratulations and
hopefully I see you soon. And by the way, tell
lunch blocks don't be trying to do the stuff I'm doing.
You're not as cool as me. Hey, when lunchbox he
didn't make the news in his house? Yeah no, And

(38:39):
I don't know if you heard the da He called
the news and tried to tip off the story after
he did it. That's awful, all right, dar you see Darius. Here?
This is Tiffany from Newport Richie, Florida. I just wanted
to say happy anniversary to my mom and dad, James
and Nan see their fiftieth I love you guys. That sweet.

(39:05):
That's crazy. Here is Isaac from Virginia. I got my
vaccine a couple of days ago, and I'm just he
turned into a zombie because he got the vaccine. We
heard it live the time. Was this voicemail? Last guy,

(39:25):
Let's do one more. Here's a voicemail from last night
as well, my third night shift in the row. I
work for a farmer transportation, so I've been messing with
the roads and snow all night for the last three nights.
I just wanted to tell you guys that you rock.
My wife and I are huge fans. I think she's
the only person that loves y'all more than I do
in the world. But keep doing what you're doing. Thanks

(39:46):
for the entertainment in the mornings. Appreciate that you guys
mean a lot. When you call on the voicemail, we're
not here, obviously, leave a message. Eight seven seven seventy seven, Bobby,
you're Samy's pile of story. So a dolphin has predicted
who's gonna win the Super Bowl? Okay, Kansas City will win.

(40:06):
Does the dolphin have any history of picking winners? Oh,
Nick the Dolphin, He's nailed all six of his last
sports predictions. So yes, to answer your question, the dolphin
has credibility. I'm gonna let you guys know, since today
is the last show before we hop into the Super Bowl. Well,
don't bet what I bet. I'm telling you right now.

(40:26):
Don't bet what I bet because if so, you're destined
to lose. Because whenever I share my bets, I lose.
That's why I don't share them until afterward. I'm like,
look at one, it's always easier that way, you would humiliation.
I have taken the bucks and then the points, which
I think at the time was three and a half points. Okay,
So I know you've got draft kings now, Amy. That

(40:47):
means they can play and they can still lose my
three and still win the bet. But I've picked the
Bucks just because I don't bet against Tom Brady, and
not only that I did, and I hate to say
this too, before the playoffs started in the middle of
the season, I bet the Bucks to win the whole
Super Bowl. So I bet fifty bucks if I win
that I'm gonna win like a thousand dollars. Yes, I
told a future bet, but fifty bucks on it, and

(41:08):
they'd continue to win each week. So why didn't you
hedge it? I don't have This is where we get really,
this is where you bet the other side. So you're
guaranteed money, you know me, Eddie, not a hedger. I
know you're a risker, all right. What else? Okay? So
I have a business idea for Lunchbox. I know he's
looking for things to do this year. And this guy
bought a house that was like super duper cheap, but

(41:30):
it belonged to a hoarder, so he knew that maybe
he would come across some things inside. He spent ten
thousand dollars on purchasing the home, which means not that
much of a house, and then has turned a profit
of four hundred thousand dollars because the hoarder had all
kinds of crazy stuff. There is it say what the
hoarder had in there. I'm sure he had all kinds
of crazy stuff. It was like catch up, pop. I

(41:52):
mean there was silver dollars, other valuables, cash that was
hidden away. So wow, where I grew up, Once you
would leave Mountain Pine, you drove on this road called
Mountain Pine Road until you got the Hot Springs, Arkansas.
And on this road lived who was known as the
bag Lady. She would always be seen around Hot Springs
pushing a cart, grabbing bags of trash, putting it in

(42:15):
the cart. You'd see her all the time growing up.
And so her house had trash bags stacked all the
way up on the sides of it. And there was
no h O where I come from, we don't have
an h and so you just saw the trash gathering, gathering, gathering, gather.
She died, she was probably eighty years old, and they
went and cleaned out her house. And so they're cleaning

(42:37):
everything up, and when they came out, they were like,
not only have we cleaned everything up? She had a
couple million dollars. She donated to the church. She had money, wow,
and she was still out gathering trash and bags amazing,
had a couple million dollars. You never know what I Well,
Kane Brown or Year with Garth Brooks, Staius Rucker, Dolly

(42:58):
and Moore are all set to perform warm at the
Opry Anniversary Special, which is going to be hosted by
Brad Paisley and Blake Shelton. And it's going down on
Valentine's Night. That's a Sunday, by the way, February fourteenth,
and it's not it's the Opery celebrating ninety five years
of country music. Yeah. I should be on there too.
I think I'm talking about the Opery. Oh, it was

(43:18):
curious if you are during the pandemic because I've run
that show for the last year or so from the Opery.
So as long as we don't get snowed in or
something and I can still get up there to record this,
I'm gonna be doing it too. So premiere of American
Idol on ABC, Opery on NBC. That's right, so all
over the place, two big shows that night, all right?
Is that an Amy? Yep? I'm Amy. That's my pile

(43:40):
that was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the
good news. Ay, So I want to talk about Hilda Brown.
She recently beat COVID. But the reason why it's a
really cool story is because she's one hundred and ten
years old. Wow, just making it to one hundred and

(44:01):
ten as a story. Yeah. So she beat COVID, then
celebrated one hundred and ten years old, which puts her
in the supercentenarian club, which is people that are one
hundred and ten. I think there's seventy six of them
in the US, So wow, small club. And her niece
and nephew were talking about how yeah, she lived through
the Spanish flue. Never got it though, but she did

(44:22):
get COVID. She's alert, she's talking, she tells stories. She
walked until she was one hundred and three, crotchet till
she was one hundred and five. How are they not
protecting her at all costs? I'm getting COVID. I don't
know if you're one hundred and nine or one hundred
and ten. She lives in an assisted living home, so
I don't know. I guess she got it there somehow,
she got it and beat it. Huh yep, that is fantastic.

(44:42):
That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good.
Do you feel like you're drinking of water? Yes? Oh,
good for you. I always struggle with water, and I'm
using two different things. I do the liquid ivy packs.
Would I just take from set of the TV show
Fantastic make the water taste pretty goo extra hydration. It
just makes me drink water, Bubby, just need to taste

(45:04):
something good, all right. I guess I'm not mature and
adult enough to just drink water. And then I have
these red tablets that I still use too. But do
you ever just drink normal water? I'd do sometimes if
I'm really thirsty, but mostly I'd need like a happy meal.
You know, you gotta get the kid to eat. I'm
putting a toy in the happy meal, right, I got you.
I need like happy meal water, like I have to
go to bath room right now. They drink so much water. Yeah,

(45:24):
good for you. I have a story for you. A
couple in Virginia found themselves in the middle of a
police pursuit on Sunday. They pulled over just in time
to record the cops arresting the guy. When you hear
him say he lost it. He's referring to the suspect
losing control of his car and losing a hubcap, and
then you see six seven police cars surround him. They
get out with a German shepherd. It's a whole but

(45:46):
they're right in the middle of it. Pretty cool. Here
you go. You're in the middle of a freaking pursuit.
Pretty good. There he is right there. Yes, yeah, oh
my god, look hit a run upon him. Hey, we
got to get out of here. Sounds like they're watching

(46:07):
a NASCAR on a roller coaster. Who here we go. Whoa,
he lost it. But this car comes flying around, it
loses control and they are right in the middle of it.
It's scary, man, Yeah, crazy. These car chases are scary,
but I love and they do the spikes out, Like
if I'm watching one of those and they're showing coverage

(46:28):
from because it always seems like it's in California, it does.
If you're able to watch one of these, you're just
rooting for the cops to throw the spikes out, and
then you hope the car who doesn't know it's coming.
It's like, please don't pull off, Please don't pull off.
Hit those spikes, baby, when the guy sees the spikes,
What do you think what goes through his head? Do
you think he probably goes all crap and then nails
the gas to try to limit it. But no, it

(46:50):
doesn't work like that, because that's when the mayhem happens
after they hit the spikes. Okay, shout out to our
police officers out there keeping us safe. Let's go to
Amy and get in the morning. Corny, Morning, Corny. Did
you see Jeff Bezos stepped down as Amazon CEO? Um?
I did? Oh? Well, he quit when he was in

(47:11):
his prime Amazon Prime. That was the morning corny topical
humor on the corner, ripped right from the headlines. Oh
hell at me if you say his name differently. Aggie
and Colorado was on right now. Hey, Aggie, how are you?

(47:32):
I'm good? Thanks for calling. How old are you? I'm
thirteen years old. Okay, what can I do for you? Okay,
So it's so nice to meet you right away? Okay. So, um,
in public places, my parents are like really anti mask
and they never really wear their mask and I do
wear my mask in public because I want to follow

(47:54):
the protocols and keep everyone safe. So should I talk
to them about that because really embarrassing for me. Oh man, Yeah,
I think you should let your parents know how you
feel and have that open communication and then it's up
to them how they want to respond. But you have
every right to express your feelings because yeah, you are
following protocol. I feel bad that you're in this situation,

(48:17):
but there's nothing wrong with sharing that with them in
a thoughtful way. And maybe, Okay, they don't believe in masks,
but maybe they do believe in not embarrassing you, and
maybe that's the one they'll take for the team. Yeah.
I think that's a great way to put it. Yeah,
they maybe don't believe in the masks, but they do
want to respect your feelings as their child. And so

(48:40):
you can say to them, you know, when you don't
wear your masks, it makes me feel, and then tell
them how it makes you feel, and then maybe they'll
respect that. How does it make you feel if you're
out and they're not wearing masks? You feel what? I
don't know, and just really like tense. It's like put
on your mask, like all the people are I'm looking
at us because you have your mask whole your mouth.

(49:04):
I think Amy is right. I think just having that conversation.
You sound like a very mature thirteen year old to
even ask advice for the situation. And again, even if
they don't believe in the mask, maybe they believe in
not embarrassing you and making you feel more comfortable in
a situation. So have that conversation, okay, Aggie, Okay, you
feel okay about that? Ay, well, hold on before before

(49:26):
you go. I also just want to make sure that
I don't know how your parents are going to respond.
So our hope is that they would maybe wear their
masks for you. But if they don't, then you know,
it's not going to take away how you're feeling. But
you just got to keep wearing the masks and then
don't or don't feel stressed. You don't need to have
that stress on you. You wear your mask, you be

(49:46):
responsible and if other people are looking at y'all funny,
that's not your problem. All right, Aggie, thank you for calling.
Have a good day. You have a good day too.
Bye bye, mature kid right there. O. Yeah, she has
Carrie or said boy or a girl. I don't even know.
I think by your girl. Okay. Tell you what though,
if my kid came to me and said, I talked

(50:06):
to a radio show and they told me to tell
you this, I'd be pitched. Don't say that. I don't
say that. That's on you guys, all right, Well, like
we gave we gave thoughtful advice. It's not like we
gave anything like, oh, disobey your parents and they don't
run away. We didn't say that. Yeah. The Friday morning
conversation with Matt still Matt, how are you? I'm doing great?

(50:31):
How are you this morning? Let me recognize Matt for
something here um, And the last time Matt was on Amy,
you weren't here. No, no, it was my first time
seeing you. I mean other than like, I didn't realize
how tall you were. So when you were in the
green room, I mean I've heard Bobby talk about how
you play basketball and you're tall, but I mean you're tall.
Like when I looked back in the room, I'm like, oh, yeah,

(50:52):
I mean that might be that's like the tallest person
I know. Well, and i'd like to recognize Matt because
he did play college basketball, but then he came over
to the house and play ball and I beat him. Oh,
and so I'd just like to say that out loud.
Do you remember that. That's a good day, wasn't it. Yeah,
that was a great day. Thank you. Anyway, I noticed
that on your arm you have a bunch of things
tattooed that really mean a lot to you. You might

(51:13):
alwo think about getting that day tattooed. Yeah, I think
on that arm as well. It is a real achievement
day for me. It was a new court. I get it.
You come over. You're intimidated by my prowess. You want
fair and square, And it wasn't straight at basketball, right,
we clarify. We played knockout where you shoot and have
to get the rebound, that kind of thing. Right, he
wasn't guarding you, right, He's lucky wasn't guarding me. Okay, Hey,

(51:36):
I saw that you were picked for the New Faces
of Country. Yeah, that's a big deal country music. Man.
It was. It was really really cool. You know. I
was actually at that show, um last year and watching
my buddy Jimmy play up there at a bunch of
other folks, and man, it's it's really special. And um yeah, man,
country country radio has meant everything to me. So that's

(51:56):
really excited really looking forward to that. How long your jeans?
What size is that. Um? Probably like a I'm gonna say,
like a thirty six ish in scene. Can you go
into a store and buy jeans? Not? Typically it depends
now because like kind of depending on the on the pant.
You know, high waters are kind of cool in some respects,

(52:18):
which would have been really nice when I was in
like high school or junior high. I would have loved
for it have been cool back then. But I have
a hard time getting shoes and jeans off the shelf. Yeah, oh,
what size is your foot? Okay? All right, now we've
gone into a whole new area like a fourteen. See
it's a special what are That's crazy? You've to shop it?
Big and tall? Um? Yeah. The thing about big and
tall is they're much more big than they are tall

(52:39):
in those stores, like the section for like you know,
tall folks is pretty small. But uh but yeah, you
know you find them on the internet. That's another great
thing about now as you can find it. I don't
want to hit this too much about him being tall,
but Amy did bring it up. I used to have
a jeep, okay, huh, and I would I have the

(53:00):
jeep and people would always wave if they had a jeep.
It's the jeep wave. Did tall people do that with
like fist bumps if like you see somebody else really
tall on them all you like, hey, bud, I got
you boom And we can't even see because above our heads,
correct like we probably it's not even in our line
of sight. Yeah, it's sort it's sort of like an
eye contact thing. I noticed that. Um. Actually when the
last show we played before things shut down was in

(53:22):
New York and there was a dude standing. He was
singing every word to the songs, but he was like
heading shoulders above everybody tall. And I watched him being really, um,
really cognizant of that because when I'm at shows, like
I have to stand kind of in the back or
against the wall or I'm ruined somebody's night, you know
for a show. So this dude, I noticed he was
doing that, and I just I send him a couple

(53:44):
of beers out to the to the crowd and just
was like, hey, man, I appreciate you well you're doing.
I know you're singing every word, but uh, I appreciate
you not, you know, ruining everybody's time by being yourself
up here. But Matt Stell is here let's let's go
back to the first one, Prayed for You. I'm gonna
you played this a little bit, but let me say
a little bit about this song. Whenever it was first
played for me. You were basically an independent artist. It

(54:06):
wasn't like many of the success stories in Nashville where
a big label goes out, find somebody, grooms them, has
them ready, launches this big campug. That didn't happen with you.
You were this guy that I knew from Arkansas, and
first time'm like, oh, come on, from Arkansas, I got
I'm pay attention to this guy a little a little more.
Who was on this? Like, how would you describe the

(54:27):
kind of deal you were on? Like a distribution deal? Honestly,
I had a publishing deal. I you know, just signed
a publishing deal in my publisher and I made an EP.
So you were just writing songs, getting paid to wright songs.
I was getting paid to write songs, and you know,
the hope for me was I wanted to write songs
for you know, big artists and just make my little,

(54:49):
my little niche records, And we put out that EP
and it just so happened to have you know, Prayed
for You. On it, and man, we put it out
into the world and it's people started listening into it,
and you know, it's like it's it's really special, especially
you're being a songwriter, to watch the song kind of
do a lot of that heavy lifting. And then, of
course what ends up happening is then you get people

(55:12):
behind you that that really believe in what it is.
And I've got a great team that does that too,
and kind of pushed it across the finish line. But
but when we started out, yeah, it was just a
song and a guitar and a guy that can't buy
jeans in a store, right, And that's what I wanted
to recognize, is that it's not the story of you
know a lot of these artists who were good and
somebody says you're the one. You had to do this yourself.
I did it for myself for a long time, and

(55:32):
then I you know, really when it started to take
off was when I partnered up with my all Right,
mister humble, I'm tired, Let's just play the dance song,
all right. I'm just telling you there's something special with this.
All right, Let's play a little bit of a how
about verse and chorus? I prayed for you. You got it,

(55:56):
liv Ben wanted to ask for hell. I need a
mountain moon and moving myself. I ain't the church put
regular twice on Sunday called you the scream sure kind.
I'm far from a preaching but I'm a believer. Is

(56:22):
every single day before I knew your name, I couldn't
see your face spoon. I prayed for you, every heartbreak, trail,
when all who fall. How in the hell I'm prayed
for you? I kept my failing and old King James said,
I'm supposed to. It's hard to imagine bigger then I

(56:44):
can fathom. But didn't know you from that at all,
but I prayed for you. Nice Matt Stole alive here,
this guy sound good. I know you move to Twn
to write songs, but I know you were hustling playing
shows as an artist, you know, Arkansas and then around

(57:06):
you know, kind of the Southeast. Why I move here
to just write songs? If the goal was to be
an artist, well, I kind of was trying to have
my cake and eat it too. You know, I always
knew that I was gonna make records, regardless of if
anybody cared about him or not. You know, I just
I love that, but I thought I would I would
just kind of do that, follow my muse and I
would have the sort of that world. And then you

(57:26):
know a lot of my heroes kind of did that,
didn't do that. Like Darryl Scott's a songwriter that I love.
I actually just got to meet last week. But you know,
he's got this whole life and career of like him
doing an artist thing and then he's written these you know,
huge songs and stuff like that, and that was always
appealing to me. And that's really what I went in thinking,
and that was you know, that was like the goal,

(57:46):
and I had no idea that. You know, it's so cliche,
but one song could just change your life. And that
song changed my life almost overnight. And Mad is no
dumb dumb. You might look at him gonna go what
a dumb dumb Okay, I'm telling you right now, Matt
Stelle is no dumb dumb. Oh. I didn't look at
him and think that, Oh okay, okay, So let's all
I got this, and then we're gonna we're gonna come
back and then play another number one for us. But

(58:08):
so you graduate high school where Nemo Vista High School,
Conway County, Arkansas. Pretty proud of that. Yeah, yeah, only
wet county around your county to get alcohol, that's right,
that's right. My county was dry down in Arcadelphia, Arkansas.
We had to drive to Garland County. I say we.

(58:29):
I mostly did the driving because I didn't drink, but
we had to drive forty minutes to get beer because
it was a dry county. Yeah. Yeah, there's some counties
around us now that are wet, but we we were
the We were the wet county for uh a lot
of that part of the state. So we're really proud
of that. You go to college where I went to
Drewy University. Play basketball? There a hoop there Drewy. Yep?

(58:50):
Did you graduate? I did graduate? All right after that?
What happened? Um high school? Yeah? It was school. I
went to Arkansas to get a master's degree. Who I
was learning how to play guitar? Did you get that?
I did? May mean, this is my point, and one
he's tway too humble, and two he's gonna freak a
master's degree up here, master's in communication, master's master Did

(59:12):
you want to do something in communication or really just
really no? I mean, yes, I mean, I guess you are.
I thought for a kind of but I thought, for
a minute I was really doing like rhetorical studies more
like less like mass Colm type stuff for Inside Baseball there.
But I thought I was gonna maybe go into academia.
I thought I would maybe get a degree in cultural
studies or American studies and write and teach and do

(59:36):
those kinds of things. But I spend enough time around
like academic departments, and I was at that point getting
a little bit busy playing music, and I was like, yeah,
I'll come back to that maybe later. So I deemed
him the smartest man in country music. Okay, that's what
I'm saying. I'm leaving it here and we're gonna come back.
Matt Stella is here. He's gonna play another number one

(59:57):
hit that you may know. And for the first time,
I believe you're gonna play a song that's right, You've
never played it, never played, not even gonna write it
till we go away for a break, and you're gonna
write it and then come back and play it exactly. Yeah,
that's how smart this guy is. It's amazing. And Amy
doesn't know if I'm kidding or not. No, I mean
I can tell that he's super smart. I'm smart in
the way that a dog that can like fetch is smart,

(01:00:17):
like on command. I'm pretty consistent. You know, the Friday
morning conversation with so Prayed for You goes number one,
big hit you gotta put out that second song, and
you're like, oh boy, am I gonna be a one
hit wonder? That's got to be the question? Well, yes
and no. You know that was a question sort of
looking back. But at that point, as we talked about before,

(01:00:38):
all of that Prey for You stuff kind of happened
sort of out of nowhere, So I didn't have any expectations.
I just kind of I felt like I was playing
with house money at that point. I was like, well,
you know, I was writing songs that I thought were cool.
So the next thing we'll put out, you know, the
team will help figure out what else is, you know,
maybe cool. But I really didn't really feel that pressure,
um because again, like I didn't have expectation is going

(01:01:00):
into it. Now as this song is going up the
chart and I know what to expect um, then I
did start to feel a little bit of pressure on
that one. But tom Well, Yeah, luckily we rang the
bell on this one. Here. It is his second number one.
This is Matt Stell. He's gonna play everywhere but on.

(01:01:28):
It's a big old world of saddest little town, thoughtful song.
I needed. It's round you out. It was gonna be easy.
It was supposed to be easy. Pull some days, put
some miles and a few staying lines tween me and you.
It's just a little space and time. Now, be fine.

(01:01:54):
Ha been from Savannah alone beach, trying to keep them
out of reach. But there you were in downtown nice
sent offa the calounal sky. I can't add another pushpin
to the map and it'll stop me from missing you
looking pack. Guess it's just one place I haven't gone.

(01:02:18):
Mood everywhere boot on areas all right, So we're having
a kind of a big morning here. What are you
gonna play for us that you haven't played until now? Um? Well,

(01:02:39):
I'm gonna play you a song that immediately when I
heard it kind of change the whole trajectory of one
thing I've learned. And I'll back up a little bit,
but one thing I've learned, and being in this game
a little bit on the radio side of it is
that everything takes so much planning and so many people
to make it work, and um, you know, typically we

(01:03:01):
have Okay, this day, this song is going to do
this and that and uh, but just in the way
that a song kind of changed my life in trajectory
in the first place. This song came along and um
just really kind of updated our plans because it was, um,
I don't know, just hit me like a ton of
bricks when I heard it. So we recorded it and
we liked what we got out of it, and um

(01:03:21):
so did the team. And it turns out this is
our our new single, and this is I guess the
first time that we've we've ever played it. I don't
guess it is the first time that we've we've ever
played it. I'm one hundred percent sure about that. And
um yeah, it's called that Ain't Me No More? And
I would love to, uh, I'd love to do my
best trial on that song for you. Let her rette
were doing the whole thing here, you know it all,

(01:03:42):
I think so, I think, I think So it's the
guys like yeah, he knows it, yeah, like yeah, Like
if it's like a super Bowl prop bet, like the
over under that I make that we make it all
the way through the bridge, the under the bridge. Yeah, exactly,
the over Unders two thirteen and a half. All right,
here he is Matt Steal. That ain't me no more?

(01:04:03):
First time I ever played it. Here we go. I
used to drink to lie, got drunk. My fuse was shortened,
my guard was up by starting to fight. I slammed
the door. That ain't me no more? Yeah, I was

(01:04:26):
number one on my list. I'm never called back the
cause I missed. No, ain't prowning? Who was before? That
ain't me no more? Yeah? Turned it all around, and
she's over the moon right now because somebody's got her

(01:04:47):
in their shirt. Somebody's texting her at work, somebody's gonna
picture on their dash, somebody's going fishing with her day.
She's letting some lucky on one seat that KNOCKI that
dress and the floor. She found the one and it's
killing me because that ain't me no more? You, Oh,

(01:05:15):
that ain't me no more? There he is Matt Style
first time ever? How'd that feel? It felt pretty good?
It felt like you know when you're in in a
flight to a place you really want to go, really bad,

(01:05:36):
but it's turbulent in the air, so you get those
like kind of butterflies and then you land and you're like,
we're here. Does that make sense? Yeah? I got an analogy?
Why not? Yeah? Why? How do you guys check out
matt style? Obviously I'm a big fan. Hey did your
mom really get upset at the tattoo? Well? She was,
she was real mad. What tattoo? Yeah, I got a

for me, and yeah, mom was not too happy. And
the one they did for you was, um, it's a
it's a quote from Galileo. It's just uh, it's just
basically and yet it moves but in the Italian So yeah,

(01:06:25):
it could have been worse. There was a guy that
got busting in Florida for I think Robin a place,
and he had the Florida tattoo between his eyes, like
between his eyebrows. It was the state of Florida, I
mean at the state of Arkansas. On my arm, but

(01:07:12):
company in Ohio is being praised because he saved a
puppy that he found a bandon on the side of
the road. His name's Aaron Kinsel. He works for Rumkey
and was on his route outside Cincinnati when he saw
a backpack that was kind of old and thrown over
the side of the road. But the backpack was moving
on the ground a little bit, so he gets out
slowly unzips it and there's a puppy in there. Wow.

(01:07:35):
Who would put a puppy. Oh. He wrapped the puppy
in a sweatshirt. Some other workers took her to the
vet for an exam. The ten week old boxer mixed
puppy was suffering from a broken leg and dehydration. But
she found a new home. That's awesome. Then thankful. He
pulled over. He saw a backpack moving and opened it up. Guys,
I don't know if I would have opened that backpack.

(01:07:56):
I don't. I don't know that I would have paid
attention to the backpack. Honestly. If I know there's a
dog in there, of course I would have. But I
don't know that I would have looked at the backpack
long enough to even noticed it, though. So Aaron Kensell,
that's great. Good on you. That's what it's all about.

which nationality. A Yankee is Northerner, a nationality. That nationality

is the word a nationality. A Yankee, a New Yorker,
a Northerner, a New Yorker is a New Yorker. And
I'm a Texan. I grew up in Texas. Is that
my nationality? I mean, I'm an American. You break it down,
is it the North or is it New York nationality? Southerner.

(01:14:42):
I'm trying to think a Westerner. Are you an Easterner?
You're a Northerner, a Northerner, a New Yorker, a Yankee.
That Yankee you didn't answer. It's a Northerner or a
New Yorker, new Yorker. And when I say national I
don't know what does that mean? I don't know. That's

(01:15:02):
why I'm nation. The root of nationality is nation. It's
an American. Everybody called US Yankees nation nationality. I thought it.
That's why I was struggling, because I was like, what
nationality has been in America? Texas? I know I'm American,
but like other countries say Yankee about us, that's Yankees American.
I'm American, but I'm not a Yankee. You are? Yeah

(01:15:25):

(01:15:46):
we would debone you. Okay, So, Morgan, a Canuck is
a slang term for which nationality? Now that you got
the definition of nationality, Yeah, Canuck? Canuck um Canadian? Correct.

(01:16:16):
Let's let's address a couple of things here. That's her
first ever win at Superrazy Trivia. She struggled with how
many moons do we have? But dang it, she won
the game. Yeah. Secondly, Eddie, you have something you want
to say. Yeah, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I'm a
gambler and sometimes you just picked the wrong team. I
bet Amy, you were a heavy favorite. You know that.
I know, But dang Yankee. I was just totally throned

(01:16:42):
by that because I grew up in the South and
I get it now, Like I guess nationality. Yeah, you
heard me struggling through it because I just didn't I
knew American was in the nation. So struggling Morgan's winning.
All this week, I've been struggling with Mike d our Rider,
who writes a lot of the games that we do,

(01:17:04):
and he's just like, please pepper spray me. I want
to know what it feels like. I didn't want to
do it, but he was gonna have it done somewhere.
So I said, Okay, just come over to the house.
We'll do it at the house because there I have everything, towels, shower,
Kaitlin's there, a car to drive into the hospital if
he needs it. Everything was there. And so he comes
over and you had a little pink pepper spray. Yeah?

(01:17:24):
Is that yours? So she carries that around in case
someone comes up to her. Yeah. And I thought to myself,
what can how can our listeners benefit from Mike d
being sprayed in the face of pepper spray? Did it
hit me? Doesn't stuff really work? Like if you have
one of these as your key chain in case someone
comes and tries to mug you, do you think it
would really work? The answer is, after doing it to Mike,

(01:17:45):
and I'll play it clubs. Yes, just make sure you
know how to do the thumb thing because it kind
of has a safety on it, so you don't just
you know, pop yourself in the poopoo with it. So
but Noody use it, but didn't know it works. Why
were you craving to have this done? I just wanted
to see what it felt like. Okay, So I had it,

(01:18:09):
and I have the pink thing in my hand and
it's red like you're it's it is what it looks
like a shooting case. I on his face. Oh really,
it's not clear. No, oh, interesting, except it hurts when
you breathe like I'm shooting him and I'm going and
I took my hand and I want to cross his
face three times, one, two, three. Now we have audio here, Yeah, yeah, okay,

(01:18:30):
here is clip number one. Okay. We are at my
house right now, not at the radio station in case
any of our bosses are listening. And I am going
to spray Mike de with pepper spray because I want
to be sprayed in the face to feel the sensation.
There are a lot of sensations I wanted to feel.
Never has this one popped into my mind, and you
are saying, if something happens to you, you are releasing

(01:18:52):
me of all guilt, anything for me. Okay, so here
we go. I'm nervous, but I do it. Let's counted down, three, two, one?
All right? Got him right there? Okay, it's in his eyes.
It's red. Oh my gosh, who look at me? Oh?

(01:19:19):
Who oh? It's fitting. Yeah, describe what you're feeling. It's
like fire in your eyes. Yeah. I can't even open them.
Okay when you open them. In Rick's work, he's drooling.
Who is that the worst pain you ever fell? Yes,

(01:19:42):
I'm good. So there you have it. He got sprayed
in the face of pepper spray? Are you glad you
did it? I'm glad I did it. Would you want
to do it again? Oh? No, not at all. Was
it worse than you thought? It was worse than I thought.
And it's not just the pain in your eyes that
immediately just loses all your sight. It's that breathing it in.
I think you heard in my voice there made it hard.

(01:20:04):
So I go back into my house. I'm working on
some stuff, and I text Mike like an hour later
and go here. I'm just checking in. Are you okay?
He goes, Yeah, I'm okay. I'm still here your house.
I'm still here. I'm not leaving right now. Yeah. I
tak about fifteen minutes from my eyes to open again,
and then thirty minutes for the burning to stop. So
would you tell people that this is a good thing

(01:20:24):
to have on them? I mean, it's extremely effective, Like
you're totally out of it, you can't do anything, You're
like completely just blind. It's intense. I need to get
something to carry around any question for him? No, I
mean no, I'm thankful to hear he doesn't want to
do it again, because I was getting worried about him
wanting to this sensation of pain, because I feel like
if we dug deeper, that could mean something like he's

(01:20:47):
wanting to just feel in general. But yeah, no, it
seems like it was just the thing and he's over it.
Do you recommend it for someone else to have it
for protection? Yes? Do you recommend someone getting shot in
the face? Recommend it? Not worth it? You want to
feel it? Are you regretting that you did it? No,
I'm glad I did it. I wanted to see what
it felt like. I know what it feels like, so,

(01:21:08):
I'm no, don't regret it? Are you still craving putting
on a bulletproof vest and having someone shoot it? I
think I'm good on safety equipment. Oh you're good? No good,
got my fix. He's it. He scratched that itch. Okay there, hey, listen,
he did it. Yeah, learned something from it. Mikey's pepper spread.
You can go over to our Bobby Bon't Show account
and see a video. He put a GoPro on his
head as it was happening, so he had the footage

(01:21:30):
also shot on my TikTok. But his GoPro footage is
pretty funny. All right, before we go, let's check some voicemails.
Here you go, Hey, Bobby, let's watch still get you
the right bang? Your commandment? And god don't my godly
