Speaker 1 (00:10):
He's good. What's happening to friends? Welcome to another week
of the show. Got a good one today because Alan
Jackson will be on a little later. Let me say
this morning studio morning. Well, let's start with what happened
at Lunchbox's house over the weekend, because they're doing construction
across from where you live, lunch Yeah, across the street.
They're remodeling a house. So they're torn it out, gut

(00:30):
it or whatever. They're just tearing it all the way down.
They're rebuilding. And I understand construction happening. It's the weekend, fine,
but they are there in the banging and the clang
clang clang. It's six forty five in the morning and
they're already hey up and at him. So we have
audio here for audio. This is from six forty seven

(00:52):
am on Saturday morning. This is from inside Lunchbox's house. Okay,
so you can hear what's going on. Yeah, the birds

(01:16):
are chirping. It's supposed to be a nice Saturday morning,
but that would be a frustrating. Do you have the
window open? I'm looking. Did he say it's from inside
his house? Is the window or door open? Lunchboxing you
recorded that. I opened the window so you could make
sure you could hear it, right. How do we feel
about I personally think you shouldn't be doing any construction
period until eight am. Yeah, like this goes for well

(01:41):
mowing the yard or weed eating, because that can be
just as annoying for people that are trying to sleep
in or neighbors that are trying to I side with you,
Lunchbox on this six forty seven, especially on a Saturday early.
That's really early, which I mean, you got to respect it.
They have work to do and they want to get
it done, but you just you kind of have to
wait till the appropriate time. Did you say anything to them? No,

(02:01):
because I don't know who's in charge, Like I mean,
they're up like just hammering and nailing as you can tell,
and I don't know who's the lead. I don't know
who the boss is, and I figure they don't have
control of it. I figured their boss tells them to come,
and the boss probably isn't even there, So I don't
know if I should call the boss, if I should,
you know, show up at their office. I don't know,
but yeah, yeah, can you try to figure out something

(02:24):
for tomorrow's show. Yeah, I'll try to get ahold of
someone that works on the side or something. But six
forty seven am just not cool, not cool at all.
We can all agree on that, right. It's rare that
we all agree on something with lunchbox or heck altogether anyway.
But sixty seven I'm not a Karen. No, I don't
think you're a Karen on this one. Yes, yeah, I
don't think you're a Karen on this one. We love

(02:46):
it when you guys reach out to us. We know
we wouldn't be the show we are without you. So
if you need to know anything, he needs some advice,
hit us up. It's time to open up the mail
bag something Hello, Bobby Bones. My boyfriend and I went
to eat on Friday night to the local Mexican restaurant
in our area. After waiting thirty minutes from when we ordered,

(03:09):
I asked a waiter if they could check on our food.
He apologized for the wait and said the food would
be coming soon. The entire time we were waiting, my
boyfriend I were arguing whether or not we should leave
and just go somewhere else because we were starving. After
fifty minutes of waiting. Our food arrived fifteen minutes for
a bean burrito in a shrimp casidia. Unacceptable. I related

(03:31):
to the waiter how disappoint we were that the food
took so long. The staff was very apologetic and blamed
it on the mini to go orders. We paid for
our mill, left and probably won't go back. How long
would you wait for food? Would you give up and
walk out? Or would you wait it out? What would
Bobby do? That's signed Julie. Now I did just experience this.
Kayla and I went to a restaurant we had never

(03:52):
been to before near our house. We're always even trying
to go. We're like, let's just go tonight. We go.
It is packed. We walk in order our mills, We
ordered an appetizer the aptor has doesn't come for almost
thirty minutes. But the place is so packed. And I
think because they didn't have enough staff, meaning during the pandemic,
you didn't need a whole lot of staff because there

(04:13):
were a whole lot of people. Well, now more people
are coming in. I don't think they've hired a staff
back as quickly. And I noticed that it took a
long time. And then I noticed one kid in the
back like a blonde haired kid like twenty two is
cooking and was like cooking every order. So when this
is happening, I'm looking around. I got my head on
a swivel, going, all right, what's the real problem here?
Is it an inept waiter, a cook? Is it the people?

(04:34):
And I realized that they couldn't help it, that too
many people come at once and it's not there. It
wasn't the waiter's fault. It wasn't the cook's fault. I
sent a tip back to the cook money. It was like,
I see you back there, busting your butt. I don't
know if a bal's notices, but I noticed it, and
then we waited patiently. We were annoyed, but it wasn't
annoyance we shared with anybody because we had looked around

(04:55):
and said, this is not something they could help. Now,
we would probably go back there for a bit because
they didn't have enough staff, and I think that'll probably be,
you know, a few months, and hopefully they do want
it to be a better experience. So that's what I did.
We didn't get our food for an hour and ten minutes.
It was awful, but it wasn't anyone's fault that I
could have said, hey, this is not fun. The waitress
are struggling. She's running around like I'm so sorry you

(05:16):
aloys seen her beebout to tables. I would not. I
would have been fine that night. I was fine that night,
But I can't see your situation. If you look around
and there's like two people in the restaurant, or if
it's to go orders, I'm probably a little more annoyed.
But I would have waited it out and just not
gone back. What would you have done? Yeah, I would
have waited because then by the time you get up
and you leave and you go somewhere else, you might

(05:37):
as well have just waited. So that'd be some of
my logic behind sitting there. But I do understand the frustration.
Oh I was frustrated to be wrong. Yeah, However, I
think it is smart to assess and try to put
yourself in their shoes and realize that sometimes, you know,
things happen and we maybe just need to practice a
little bit of patience. And then yeah, it's up to

(05:58):
you whether or not you want to go back. The
opposite because if you notice your waiter or waitress is
struggling too, and it's been about rough time for them,
Like be a little bit more generous to them. Yeah,
because I know that my person was struggling and I
could see that cook back there is run it, throwing
things up one after the other, and so I didn't
want to do the whole kind of go back and
give it regards because he's like a college kid. But

(06:19):
I wrote him a note in Simm's cash and I
was like, hey, man, I see you back there hustling,
like that'll payoff one day. That's awesome, lunchbox, what would
you do? I would have waited. I'd have got a
free meal. Okay. I would have called the manager over
and said, look, man, look this food was good, but
it ain't an hour and a half hour whatever. Good,
this is a free meal. And that way you can
improve your service. And they're gonna give me a free

(06:39):
meal and we'll be out on there. It'd be good.
What if he said no free meal, then I wouldn't
have paid out of the left. You can always reach
out to us with your questions, Morgan. What's that email address?
Nail bag at Bobby bones dot com. Close it up,
We've got your clothed. Yeah, it's the good news countdown,

(07:05):
counting down the biggest good news stories across the left.
I got a four year We'll go five to one.
Let's go five. Did you see the big dog to say,
the little dog in swim pool. I didn't see the video,
but I saw the headline. Holy moly, the little Pomeranian
is walking around the pool. It falls in, it couldn't

(07:26):
get out. They've got a seven year old bull terrier
finally pulled the dog out with the teeth. That's crazy. Wow,
rescued the dog. Rescue dog. That's pretty cool. It was amazing.
I was telling Kalin about this over the weekend. I
was like, you see the video, and we started talking
about if our dogs would do that for each other.
They would not. They would not. A couple in northern

(07:48):
California had struggled to get pregnant for seven years when
their doctor said losing weight was their only chance, so
they both had gastric bypass surgery. He lost three hundred
and seventeen pounds, she lost one hundred and fifteen pound
and they just had their first kid. Yeah, they actually
had a kid. How amazing is that? That is great.

(08:08):
A guy near La went hiking this week and he
got stranded overnight. He had texted a photo to a
friend of his legs dangling off a rock overlooking at canyon.
It's like, hey, this is where I am. And then
later he said, hey, I'm lost and my phone is dying.
So rescuers started searching and posted the photo of the
legs hanging over the rock in case anybody knew where
he was exactly, and a random guy named Ben saved

(08:30):
the day. Ben has a weird hobby when he enjoys
looking at random photos to see if he can figure
out where they're taken. So he got to work figured
out the general area, told the cops they found the guy.
Here's a clip of the story from the news. I've
got a very weird hobby, which is I love taking
a look at photos and figuring out where they're taken.
So that's when we asked our air Rescue five to
go and check out that area and see if they

(08:52):
saw anything. And you know, Alan Behold, we were able
to find him. I really I don't know if I
could make it there another day. Thank you, Ben, I
appreciate everything that you did. Amazing story and it reminds
me Raymundo has a weird talent of seeing a movie
and knowing exactly where it's filmed. What city? Yeah, usually
all the American cities. I can nail Chicago, New York, Miami,

(09:13):
whatever those ones, and also Paris, any of the ones
overseas as well in Europe. If he sees a movie
and it's shot in a city, he can tell you
by the buildings where that movie is shot. Yeah. Yeah,
that's pretty cool. It's pretty cool. All right, let's go
to this website. My heritage has technology that can animate
a photo of someone so it looks like they're moving.

(09:33):
Have you guessed the video of the guy's ninety eight
seen his wife, Oh, passed away? He starts crying. It's
really amazing. It shows a photo of his wife. The
picture looks like it was taken back in like the
forties or fifties. Is kind of black and white, and
it moved into tears. Here's the reaction. Holy smokes, she's alive. Yeah,

(09:54):
it brings the picture to live. Oh god, I can't
believe this passion. November corny third, we would have been
married seventy five years. Yeah, I still over her. Crazy, huh.
It was a really cool video. That dog video on
the poll and that video I saw the same day,

(10:14):
So I was a mass all day. Yeah, all right,
here we go. Why a former Starbucks barista named Griffin
Baron got to reunite with an eighteen year old kid
named Jonathan Selner who he helped deliver when John's mom
gave birth in a Starbucks bathroom in two thousand and two.
Here's a clip of the original news story back in
two thousand and two where Griffin was interviewed. We heard

(10:34):
just and all of a sudden, there's a baby sitting
in Brian and I looked at each other and we
were just in shock and an amazement that the baby
came bad quickly. A seven pound, ten ounced baby boy
was born before paramedics could get there. But baby and
mom did just fine. Yeah, he delivered that baby in Starbucks.
And now the baby is old enough to vote. That's crazy,

(10:56):
and they brought him back together. Pretty cool story, huh.
I love it. I wonder if the Starbucks did anything
for the baby, like three Starbucks for life. I think
kid had a Starbucks tattoo on his neck when he
came from No he did. The Good News Countdown was
the latest from Nashville and Tullywood Morgan number two, thirty

(11:17):
second Skinny Reba McIntyre released the song Somehow You Do
from the movie for Good Days. The movie is out
this Friday. Here's the song you Through So So Somehow.

(11:40):
Blanco Brown is happy to have a number one while
he's still recovering from his motorcycle accident. I'm blessed. I
just take every day with strat and to have a
number one in the midst of rehabilitating just the biggest
blessing ever. And you know, just to have people cheer
you own. I love it. Kit More talked about writing
his new song good Life. I just got to thinking

(12:03):
about the crazy ebbs and flows of the journey to
where I've gotten and doing life by my own terms,
and at times I've been judged for that, But because
I did it my way, I feel so blessed, because
I'm truly finding the joy in my life and I'm
loving every second of it. I'm Morgan number two. That's

(12:23):
your skinny dog. It's time for the good news. An
anonymous donor is given back to a Florida animal shelter,
which I love when people help by animal shelters, and
so just a little backstory. You know what bitcoin is. Yes,
it's kind of a cryptocurrency. It's all digital. There was
one started as a joke called dogecoin, like dog coin,

(12:46):
and it actually took off a little bit and people
made a lot of money with it if they bought
it early. Well, someone made a lot of money with
dogecoin and they donated a ton to the shelter and
now the shelter is able to have more pets and
actually help more pets get them adopted because of dogecoin,
which started as a joke. Interesting. The woman put the
donation at the Daytona Beach shelter all with dogecoin, turn

(13:08):
it over to money, gave them the money, which is
perfect for this place because they just took in forty
two dogs from a dog fighting ring and they're like
without this, but it's just funny. Dogecoin was a joke
about dog coin, and now it's helping dogs. Now it's
helping dogs. That's right. It's a good story. That's what
it's all about. That was tell me something good. I
watched little bit of that Punky Brewster revival this weekend

So more women than ever are now shaving their faces,

(24:24):
and this is coming from some beauty experts that are
out talking about it, and I'm like, thank you. We're
normalizing face shaving for women because I've been doing it
for years and sometimes people just don't understand and I
think it's the craziest thing, but it really is a
great way to exfoliate your skin, and your little peach
fuzz will not grow back thicker, it won't. Do you

(24:44):
do the whole lather up. No, da, No, I don't
use shaving cream. I just use my face wash or
you can do it dry, depending on what tool you
used to shave with. But I just like the cheap
o bick ones from like you know, Walgreens or something,
and I just shave there I go. I mean, now
my husband doesn't like to walk in on me doing it.
That's a big buzzkill or something, but the buzz but

(25:08):
I know, so yeah, so I guess the people were, Yes,
they're on a mission to normalize this, So ladies, bust
out the razors. I think if you're not lathering up
your face like a dude, it's probably fine for everybody.
But we just think of it as like cave men
men like girl leather face up, not sexy. Right, Well,

(25:29):
you can get these little tinkle razors weird name, by
the way, I totally but I mean that's a way
to do it dry if you want to or um,
you can get like those big razors, but I highly
recommend not getting ones with a moisture strip because that
whatever aloer in there might break your face out. I'm
all for it too, So I co sign you guys
being able to shave your face without judgment. Thank you.
It would just be weird to see you lathered up. Okay,

(25:51):
that's all all right, all right, So lady Wilson, she's
talked to us before about how she made bank like
being Hannah Montana. So it all started she was in
the eighth grade. I guess one of her teachers was like, hey,
can you come be Hannah Montana? At my daughter's birthday party,
and she was like okay, So she learned all the songs.
She ended up doing like three parties a weekend at
times when you know, in her peak years as Hannah

(26:14):
Montana for about four to five years, and one time
she was driving home from an event or two and
she got pulled over by a cop as Hannah Montana.
I did get pulled over as Handam Montana one time.
I have a speeding I was probably sixteen or seventeen.
This is about year three in like I was crying.
My wig was hanging all sideways. I was like, free,
I'm supposed to be be at his birthday party. Pleased him,
like he helped me find them the directions. That was

(26:36):
her on a podcast called Just Being Earnest. She was
also on the Bobby Cast. Yeah, and I have a
clip from that where she was saying she would bring
along herself Landy Wilson as her Handam Montana opening act.
I had the wig, I had the outfits. A lot
of the time. They didn't want Landy Wilson there. They
just wanted Hannah Montana to come to the party or whatever.
So I'd get up there sing a few songs. Play
my guitar and and you would know the songs. Oh yeah,

(26:58):
did you ever do time? I did? That? Is that
your best paying gig? Absolutely? I made way more money
then than I'll do Ni, I will tell you right now,
All right, what's next? And do you think wearing nicer
clothes at work makes you more productive? Yes? I think
if you feel good, you perform better. Period. It's like
when people say, hey, if you're kind of in a

(27:19):
lull and working out, getting new workout clothes because you're like, oh,
I feel good, I feel fresh. Yes, new clothes is
in general, but you put on new clothes, you go
to dinner, you're live with the party because I am
you're feeling good. Yes, well, just with the pandemic, like
casual clothes were already making their way onto the work scene,
but then with the pandemic we got real comfortable. And
so I guess as people are emerging back at the office,

(27:40):
just the debate is like, well, can we continue comfy
or should we dress up? Oh? This is what comfy? No,
But I guess if you do have if you have
a day where you know you need to be on point,
maybe you should try dressing up because it'll help you, Okay,
I agree, just period. If you feel like you look good,
you do feel better just in general, So go for it,

(28:01):
all right? That it Yep, that was Amy's pile of stories.
It's time for the good news. So this woman named
Robin Philly was shopping at a thrift store with her
husband and she found a cookbook that caught her eye.
She started flipping through it and noticed that there was

(28:22):
some photos of a little girl stuck inside the cookbook.
Oh so not on the pages I'd like to want
stuck them in there, And so she thought, gosh, like,
I feel like these must belong to somebody. So she
got the book. She put it all on Facebook, and
words started to spread, and the little girl in the
pictures is now like twenty something years old and reached

(28:44):
out to the woman. They met up in person. She
got the photos and then there was even handwriting on
the back that the girl said, Oh yeah, that's my
grandmother's handwriting. That's gotta be crazy to see someone had
some old pictures of you and they're probably super important
to you too. Yeah, but how many of us honestly
would have just thrown them out? Probably me, yeah, and
not put them on Facebook. Who's I would hope after
hearing this story, we don't throw them out. Yeah, Like

(29:08):
sometimes when you get mail and it's to the wrong
place like somebody else cycle, Right should we do because
I try something, I really do seventy five percent of
the time, I'll put a note on it, put it
back in the mailbox. But I should do it one
hundred percent of the time. I should use the story
like this to make me better. You guys don't. I
don't know what if it's an important document though, I know,

(29:32):
and they really really need, like a tax document. Yeah,
you can't really tell that from a lot of times
you can't where it comes from. A lot of that
they trick you like, oh this is very important, open
immediately spam. So I just assume everything spam. What do
you do? I have put it back in my mailbox
for with a note, But I don't know that. I honestly,
I feel like a lot of times it is spam.
I hope well, as a group, we will pay more

(29:54):
attention this story to make us a better person. All right,
that's what it's all about. That was tell me something good.
Last week, producer Ready shared with us that he found
his seven year olds locked journal, and Eddie wants to
read his kid's journal got a lock on it. So
we talked about it. Should he open that journal and
read it? I said no, what do you think? No? Yeah, no,

(30:15):
we are We decided my daughter wants a locked journal
and no I'm getting We got her one and I
wouldn't read it, and you said read it. So it
was two to one in the room, so lunchbox went
out and talked to folks. Here's number one, Open it
up and read it? Why safety? Now? Hold on stop
full seconds. Let me show you who you are asking.
You're asking a model with three keys, a thirty one

(30:37):
year old, a thirty year old in the twenty eight year.
So you've lived through it. I've lived through this. What
if it's something in there that you can prevent from happening? Right?
In that case, that's called safety. You're not friends, you're
not friends. What are your parents? You're a parent and
a child. I feel like she's scaring. Yeah, he's all

(30:59):
scared a parent? Man? Is that right? Okay, that's good.
I do like her perspective. I hear another one. I
would maybe ask him, like I just took you have
this lot of journal, Like, is anything you feel like
to me to share with me? What I had a
journal when I was kid. It was a lot and
I literally drew pictures in it. I don't know, I
feel like you're kind of breaking a bound it if

(31:19):
you just look at it. Now, if you feel like
he starts having my suspicion behavior like he's acting a
little admiral, I would look at it, because who knows
how he's feeling. Think of it this way. If you
never found it, if you wouldn't be worried about him,
that I wouldn't open into So now, how old was
she because she sounds really young. Yeah, but that was
opposite from the parent. She ended that with a really
wise statement. What she said, now to separate, take the

(31:43):
journal out. If you weren't worried about him, Like, if
he's not displaying any sort of behavior that's causing you
any concern, you wouldn't be worried about reading the journal.
Takes the journal out, like is your son doing behavior
that's concerning even don't read the journal, So I say,
but you can't be like, hey, what's in that journal?
And he's like nothing. You believe him, but he's like oh,
he starts stuttering and like, oh, you're hiding something. One

(32:06):
more here you go. Okay, So if that was your kid,
would you open it? Probably just to be nosy, because
there was nothing was ever locked in podcast. The people
have spoken. They sound like me. They say to unlock
it and read it. Where are you on this, Yeah,
unlock it and read it. Are you gonna read it? Probably? Why? Well,
but I do. I do think I'm gonna take the

(32:27):
approach of asking him first, be like, hey, what's in
your journal? Like, let's let's let's look through it. I
think he's gonna be cool about it. Let's be real,
what's in there? Bones? Really, he's seven years old? Yeah,
so why break that boundary? I just curiosity. I want
to know what's in there. And like the ladies said
at the end, there's no privacy in our home. Just
as a question here, your curiosity is more important to
you than his sense of privacy. Oh yeah, I mean

(32:47):
seven years old? Yes, Okay, that's all I wanted to know.
You're the dad. Aparently, let's go over to Amy. It's
time to get in the morning. Corny, Morning, Corny. I
spend my entire life savings on pasta. Okay, it was
worth every pennay pasta. Yeah we got that was the

(33:15):
morning corny. Everybody in the pasta shops all over America
right now, laughing the butts on gigglings right all Italian restaurants.
Waiters can tell that one to their patrons. You know,
when you get on an airplane and you walk in
and the Southwest flight attendants standing there and she's like, hey,
how's it going, how's your day? But you know, well
going to South they're all different, right. Sometimes sometimes they

(33:36):
get on the microphone they're like from South put here.
But whenever they stand up there when you walk in,
it isn't just to be nice. They're actually looking at
every person to see if there's an emergency, who can
we grab that's like an able bodied person and knowing
where they're sitting. It's a selection process basically. So this
girl from Utah revealed why flight attendants agreet you on

(33:58):
an airplane. She said they're looking for able bodied people
for an emergency. That includes one, people that just look
strong and physically active, but also doctors, firefighters, nurses, and
military personnel. They're also checking for suspicious items, like it's
just walking in with a you know, a thirty odd
six yeah, or human trafficking. Oh yeah, like they're they're
not just to say hi, but they have a job

(34:20):
to do, and it's to look people over. So that
was pretty crazy. Yeah. So now I'm gonna walk in
and be like, hey, I'm able. Yeah, this changes everything. No,
I'm sure they already realized that about you. What if
I caught him telling somebody I wasn't able, They're like, yeah,
the guy's glasses not able body. Let's not go to
him or you just ghoes just right from the top,
just going there. How's it going? Hey, you know I'm
not strong at all. Just let you know. I know

(34:41):
it looks strong, but I can't can't come to me.
Whatever you do, don't come to me, and you'll like
nothing suspicious, point your pockets out. I got nothing going
on here. I know you're looking for a gun here.
I got nothing, mister Jackson. I call you that, you know,
just out of respect. I don't know for an interview.
Should I call you Alan? Like, how do you want
me to refer to you? Pub look like I would
call you mister Jackson if I saw you in person.

(35:03):
I like, just my first name fast whatever you feel
comforb with. I don't really care, all right, mister Alan Jackson.
Don't call me al? Well, that's it wasn't that your name?
Early on though? Didn't people call you out where you
using that as your name? Just people that didn't like
me call me there. Nobody ever called me al. They
called me aj you know that kind of thing. Back

(35:26):
in like eighty six or so, when you were on
You Can Be a Star on TENN, which, by the way,
my grandma and I would watch TENN all the time.
That's where he watched. That's where I really fell in
love with the opery was TNN liked. Did anyone come
off of that show You can be a star other
than yourself? Remember anybody else in that show? Well, the
truth is I wasn't a contestant on that show. You know,

(35:47):
I worked at TNN in the mail room, and so
the people that worked there with me knew I was
aspiring to be a singer and songwriter. And one day
I was just standing around backstage when that show was taping,
they said, Hey, we need somebody else to sing going
into commercial because that they pull people out of the
audience to sing just a guest audience member just to

(36:08):
sing going into the commercial, and they asked me if
I wanted to sing, and so I jumped up there.
So you jump from working for the network backstage to
just hop it on stage. Do you remember that and thinking,
holy crowd, this is a big performance here or was
it just another day because you were playing at night
already anyway, No, that was a huge I mean that
was the first time I'd ever done anything from the camera,

(36:29):
I would imagine, And I had mold brown Cowboy back
back there, you know that the first Cowboy otter had
I'd ever bought and honed, and I stuck it on
my head and went out there and sang a George
Jones song. If you go out in public now and
you're not wearing your cowboy hat, will people know that
it's you. I get recognized quite a bit with just

(36:51):
a ball cap or something on it. It's you know you,
more die hard fans that know me will But I
think as I've gotten older, I don't look quite as
same him with some of those early videos, So but yeah,
I don't Cowboy had definitely you stand out a little
more on with Alan Jackson right now, which by the way.
The full album Where Have You Gone? Available May fourteenth,

(37:14):
But we got a couple of songs out now, let's
let's talk about some of them. Let's why don't we
talk first about Where have You Gone? You wrote the
song by yourself, right, Yeah, I guess now nowadays most
writing is happening in rooms of two and three, sometimes four.
How common was it back ten, fifteen, twenty years ago

(37:35):
to actually write a song by yourself versus, you know,
like it is now. I don't think he was much
different back to the end of If you're a songwriter
in Nashville or artists hanging around town and you're writing
with other writers, I would typically write with somebody else
or maybe three, but occasionally I'd write something by myself.
I think I just kind of grew into it because

(37:57):
once my career took off, I was gone all the
time time, you know, when I was on the road,
so I was pretty much had to write by myself
unless somebody wanted to come with me. And and that's
how it just kind of developed. I guess, how do
you know when you write by yourself if it's actually good?
Because any time I write jokes by myself, or anytime

(38:17):
I'm writing dopey songs like I kind of need that
other person to tell me that I'm not that funny.
Like when you're writing, how do you know if you're like, yep,
I did it all. I know it's good. Well, I
don't know if I know that either. I think you
definitely when you write something, if your own and you're
singing it, you get real close to it. It's hard
to have a perspective of somebody that's never heard it before.

(38:38):
But you know, my wife's a pretty good board to
bounce it off of. And and uh, you know, I
think I just feel like I know when when gut
instinct tells me, usually if it's a pretty good song.
And I'm not always right, But I mean, I've written
a lot of things that I realized weren't top shelf,
and everybody does you don't really know me, Like Denise

(39:01):
one time I wrote this song that she told me
it was stupid, and it went on to be in
the number one, So you never know, and what song
was that? If we can ask, uh, gosh, I wish
you hadn't asked me that. Now. It's not I'm in
love with you baby, it's oh, I can't remember. If

(39:27):
it comes to you, let us know. Did you ever
have a song that you wrote? I mean, you're in
the Songwriter Hall of Fame, so you know you're writing
song after song, great songs. But did you ever have
a song and you thought, I don't think that song
is gonna do much, but then it ended up being
a big smash and you were surprised by it. Yes, Chattahoochie.
When you finished Chattahoochie, you finished writing in that room

(39:49):
that day, did you go, all right, this is never
gonna be heard by anybody other than us who wrote
the song, Well, Jim and Briden I wrote that, and
I just thought that it was, you know, a title
of the name of the river in Georgia that I
grew up on them around and and nobody unless they
were from that area, we're even gonna know what in
the world I was singing about. And it was I

(40:12):
guess the song was really more than that. It was
it was a growing up kind of coming of age
song in a small town. And I realized later that
everybody had a Chattahoochie or something like that, so they
related to it regardless of the title. So I was
wrong on that one. I mean, I still play that
song about once every two weeks. I will play Chattahoochie
just because I feel like playing Chattahoochie. And here we are,

(40:33):
this many years later. Do you ever hear it on
the radio today and you're like, dang, I cannot believe
that song is still sounding good. Well, I don't. I
hear my songs every now and then. Yeah, they all
surprised me that they're still out there, But yeah, I get.
I mean, I've sung that thing a million times, you know,
on stage, and people still jump up on their feet
when they love that thing. So a couple of songs

(40:55):
I want to talk about in the new project, You'll
Always Be My Baby, and I do now. They were
both written for your daughter's weddings. That true, That's absolutely right.
My oldest daughter, Mattie was the first to get married,
three or four years ago now, and they wanted a song.
She wanted me to write a song for the father
daughter dance. You know that they do it the reception,

(41:17):
And so I wrote that, and then I told all
three of my girls, I said, look, I wrote this
song for the dance, and I'm not going to write
one for every wedding. So all three y'all got to
use this so far off it. I've used you twice.
Did you ever early in your career play a wedding
to make some extra cash? Very rarely, but I did

(41:39):
do a couple that were friends of my wife. I
think even after I came to Nashville. My still player,
that's been one about thirty years. He was in that
little band and we went down to Atlanta and played
this little backyard reception for this wedding. And he still
every now and they'll bring that up and laugh about
it us playing that wind. I sang in my own wind.

(42:01):
Wait say that again. I need to hear you say
that again. You did what? But Denise and I got married,
you know, I was singing then, just kind of you know,
a weekend warrior thing in Georgia. And so when we
got married, we set our vows and for you do
the ring thing. I sang this wedding song that Pat
Terry was a Christian writer around Atlanta here it wrote

(42:24):
it and it's real pretty song. And I stood there
and sang it to her and looked at the church
in front of everybody. That's hard, yeah, I was. I
was gonna say how hard it was, that to sing
at your own wedding. I mean, if I feel like
i'd probably be a bit emotional while I was doing it. Yeah,
I think I was just more nervous and scared than

(42:44):
I was emotional. But yeah, I got through it pretty good.
I thought, Alan Jackson's on with us right now. Hey,
what role did you have? And I asked this from
someone who was in musicals myself back in the day
in Oklahoma? If I'm correct, you were in the production
of Oklahoma, Who are You? Oklahoma? Ye know the characters

(43:07):
by name, but uh so, I don't know who did
you sing that, Oh what a beautiful morning? Was that
you at all? Yeah? I know the songs. Yeah, I
would probably had sung that. I actually was in a
play in high school that had him. It was a
musical and I was one of the main guys in there,
and uh I sang the old John Denver song country

(43:31):
Boy in there, the thank God I'm a country boy
that one. Yeah, thank thank God I'm countortable. Yea, you
sank thank God I'm a country boy. In a high
school of play I did. That was the kickoff of
my career. I'm looking at your list here, and I
think I know every one of your number ones by heart,
and you know many of the other ones as well.
Of the thirty five number ones, I mean where I

(43:54):
come from, that's the one we're going back in time.
That's the one Denise said that was stupid. Okay. See,
I knew we would get there eventually. Yes, you can't
possibly play all your number ones in a set at
a single show, right, How do you decide which big
which the biggest songs you're gonna play? Well, I guess

(44:16):
over the years, I've tried to just bounce it back
and forth with the audience and figure out which ones
I feel like, uh that they respond well too, and
also which which songs fit together in a couple of hours.
And I mean it's tough. It's tough. I mean I've
had sixty or seventy singles. You know that there have
been either one or five or top ten hits, and

(44:37):
I mean I couldn't remember them all if you ask me.
And it's it's it makes me feel really bad. Sometimes
I'll see a fan out there holding up a sign
of a particular song from twenty years ago that I
hadn't sung in a long time, and uh, you know,
I just can't. Most time, I couldn't do it if
But every now and then they'll hold something up and
I can remember enough to sing the chorus or something

(44:59):
for him, And that's kind of fun to do, but
it's very it makes me feel bad. I know, some
people come to hear one Tickler song and you just
don't get to do it for him. So I try
to just pick the biggest ones and the ones that
have affected the most people, or or that I enjoy
as will. How did you earn money to buy your
very first ever guitar back in the day. I didn't

(45:20):
buy it. My mom and daddy gave it to me
when I was sixteen for a birthday. Was that because?
Was that because they knew you wanted to play guitar?
Had you expressed how I would love to be able
to afford a guitar and they went and got you one? Well, yeah,
I guess. So. I'd been singing, you know, with a
church some and that kind of thing, and I was
dating this girl who had a younger sister played a

(45:41):
twelve string guitar, and and we started singing together, just
doing some kind of folky stuff and out and really
country stuff much but church kind of stuff month mainly,
and I started playing just doing that. And then I
met a boy that was a friend am one of
my older sisters, and he played electric guitar and sang

(46:05):
real country stuff, I mean Gene Watson and Haggard and
all that stuff. And he's the one that really turned
me on to it and got me a singing. He
sang a little good of harmony and we formed a
little duo and it grew into a band later. And
that's what led me to Nashville. Really, when you moved
to Nashville, was it to be a songwriter or to
be a performer singer. I had never written a song
in my life until when I was singing with that band,

(46:28):
and everybody kept telling me you ought to go to Nashville,
you know. So I didn't know much about I didn't
know anything about the music business or recording or anything.
And this one old guy in Noon and a young
man that had a band or rock band he played
in Atlanta, sum He had a little four track studio
in his basement or something. He's the only guy who
knew the recording, and so I asked him about it.

(46:49):
He said, yeah, if you go to Nashville. You know,
you can't go up there singing everybody else's songs. You
need your original materials to show them who you are.
So I started writing songs, and when I came to Nashville,
I had a paper sack full of song songs, and
a lot of those ended up on the first two
or three records. When you started writing songs, because like
I said, you didn't have a huge history of writing
songs before you got to Nashville, was there, did it

(47:11):
come to you pretty easy or did you have to
take a long time and kind of labor to learn
how to actually write a good catchy song. Well, I
think some of it. You got some kind of natural
abuility to hear melodies and make it rhyme. But you know,
it's a craft. I thought, you know more, I wrote
and wrote with experience writers. I learned. But I mean

(47:32):
the first month or two I moved to Nashville. You know,
I never lived anywhere, and my wife was working a
job to pay our bills something. She was out of
town most of the time. I was up here by myself, lonely,
and it was saying. The first month or so I
was there, I wrote a song for my mama for
the Mother's Day that was coming up right after I
had moved here, and and it was called Home. It's

(47:55):
a song about my mom and daddy in the house
they grew up in and this true story, a bunch
of facts scribbled down. And that was one of the
first songs I wrote when I came to town, and
it went on to be a hit, and you know,
years later, and so you just, you know, you never
know you're writing something like that that comes out of
you that's personal. Sometimes it writes itself more, you know.

(48:15):
You know, of the songs that you have written that
ended up again being big smashes that have gone generationally,
which one of them kind of fell out of you
the fastest where you just kind of sat down an
hour and a half You're like, well, we got a
song here, and then it turned into a big hit. Gosh,
I don't I've had a lot of them come to
me that way, you know. I would think the one
that that was the most inspirational in a almost spiritual way,

(48:41):
and it was where were you When I just got
up in the middle of the night and there it
was that song, you know, and wrote the course down
and and that whole thing just came out of nowhere.
And then the next morning I started scribbling all those
little verse things down about different visions I'd seen during

(49:05):
all the term wild on television and hear and hearing
people's stories. Yeah, that one, it was almost so god sent,
you know. Alan Jackson's on Where Have You Gone? Is
his first album in six years. It'll be available in
May fourteenth. You've got twenty one performances. We've talked about
a bunch of the songs so far, but no record

(49:25):
for six years. Are you a guy that can separate
and just put music in life in separate places and
just live your life and not worry so much about
music for a while. Oh, definitely. So. Yeah. I've always
when I come off the road, I'm off the road.
And I've always enjoyed just life with my family and
doing things that you I've always enjoyed doing even before

(49:49):
had any money to do it, you know, and it's
it's wonderful. I think that's one thing that's helped me
stay more focused and grounded and be able to write
songs that still connect with people's I never really worked
hard to be in the spotlight. I had two final
questions for you, mister Jack Allen Allen, my friend Alan.

(50:10):
That's why I should say, my friend Allen. I have
two final questions for you. Um, the first song on
your set list if you were to go out tonight,
you hadn't played in a while once, the first song
you play when the crowds out there were going, Allen Allen,
I used to kick off of God Country because I
just it's just a great opening song and a good
track for that. And I've been doing that for years

(50:32):
and it leads into the show real well, and the
crowd seems to they like that. It's just like it's
it's the statement, you know, to kick off the song show.
What are you close with? Uh? Typically we get down
to Chattahoochie. I like a running a little set of

(50:53):
five o'clock and Chattahoochie, and then I come do some
Mercury Blues. Sometimes a team come on Mercury Blues. That's
my jam. That's my jam. Listen, all I think about
is home improvement. In that car, turning around and tim
to Toolman Taylor and al Borland and you're up there.
I'm gonna buy me a Mercury and cruise it up
and down that's it for me. That's my childhood. Oh

(51:14):
I love it. Okay, here's the real final question. Okay,
your wife's maiden name was Jackson. Did she even have
to change her name illegally after you got married? I
don't guess, so don't. It's the same Jackson, right, it's
just Jackson's Jackson. Yeah, far as I know. We're probably
related somewhere down the tree, so far ahead. You know,
all our children turn out and almost so Okay, there

(51:36):
we have it. Upcoming album Where Have You Gone? Out
May fourteenth. Let me encourage you guys. Check out where
have You Gone? Check Out? You'll always be my baby.
Check out things that matter way down on my whiskey.
Mister Jackson Allen, thank you very much, just a massive fan.
Appreciate your time. I would say good luck with your career,
but I think you already won. So you're the winner
and we're lucky to have you around. Well, thanks for

(51:58):
talking to and I'll appreciate. Good to see you. Violin.
It's time for the good news. Good well. For the
past year at Ober Elementary School in Las Vegas, they've
been doing distance learning and there's a first great class
and two girls Julia and Luna. They just hit it

(52:20):
off a year ago through the computer. They were friends,
they laughed together. They're like, we love each other, but
we've never met. So now current day, Julia's having a
birthday and the mom says, I got the best gift
for her. I'm going to invite Luna so they can
meet for the first time. And sure enough, Luna came over.
They gave each other a big hug, like, oh my gosh,
we've been friends on the computer and now we get
to meet. They said, quote, it was the best day ever. Yeah,

(52:43):
that's cool. What if one's like super tall though, because
you really don't know until they're all see though, Yeah,
they're all the same size on a computer, or one's
like super short. Oh you're not even what I expect. Yeah,
it's like a dating nap. That's a great story though.
That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good.
Do you guys know, we love to hear from you,

(53:04):
so hit us up anytime, even when we're not on
the air. You can call her number and leave a
voicemail eight seven seven seventy seven Bobby. For example, here
is Jake from Washington. Hey, Bobby, just want to say
thank you for helping me stay awake the truck driver
drive lock truck up here, and just want to say
thank you for everything you guys do and keep the

(53:27):
entertained throughout the day. I really enjoyed the show and
listen to you guys when I was in Virginia as
a cough and I listened to you guys now as
a lock truck driver. Appreciate that. Thank you for what
you do out there. Let's go over and do the
news Bobby's by. Hey. Woman in Seattle just tweeted about
how a hospital messed up her baby's birth certificate and

(53:49):
actually saw this certificate. She was trying to name her
daughter Cora k O r A. I don't know somebody
heard her wrong or if they just typeoed it, But
now the baby's name is Corn. Ohka Like the band
must have understood that one backwards. But yeah, this is
Corn the band here. Here you go. Earlier this about

(54:17):
the woman name Kells in Seattle had a baby girl
and on Friday the certificates at Corn baby Corn. Are
they keeping it? The baby's legal name is still Corn?
What would you do if it was a funny story
like this? Would you keep your kids name corn. I
guess it would be funny to keep it, and then
you just call her Cora. But is a name is
supposed to be funny because I've had some bad ideas

(54:39):
for our future kid. Oh really, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
this is an accident, not a planned bit. Calen keeps
telling me our kids are not bits. Oh yeah, yeah, Caitlyn.
That's story number one. More new, here we go Bobby's story.
There's a woman who crashed more than a dozen weddings
and Alabama tennis see in Mississippi and stole gifts at

(55:01):
all of them, and now the police have identified her.
A woman captured on surveillance camera near an unsuspecting couple's
wedding gifts is a suspect who's wanted more than a
dozen wedding theps since twenty seventeen. That is wild, and
she was just dialing in. She must have been good
at it. I wonder if she had a map with pins.
That's exactly what that's crazy. She would go in and

(55:25):
then as they were at the front actually doing the vows,
she'd go and swipe some gifts. Yeah, get onto the
car and head out of there. When everyone's preoccupied. Wow. Wow,
and she did it for three and a half years.
I knew an old couple, you know, back in the day,
that would every Friday night they would find a wedding
and they would go and they would just have the
night of the night of their life and then go home.
And that was it. That's how they went out on

(55:46):
Friday nights. I'm too scared to crash anything. I told you.
If there's a concert with an efty seat up three rows,
I'm like, I can't do it because I'll be worried
the whole time. Someone's gonna grab me and say, oh,
this is this your seat, and then I'm like, huh oh,
I was confused, Wait look at my ticket, and then
do the whole and dance. So in the one final story,
speaking of gifts, I led at this this weekend, a
guy had thirty five girlfriends and it was a scam

(56:09):
to get them all to buy on birthday presents. But
he only got about fourteen hundred bucks worth the presents
before he got busted and now he's facing fried charges.
The guy was dating more people at the same time
than I've ever heard of my entire life. And I
think there's a crime in dating thirty five people. It
would be very difficult to do. There's a thirty nine
year old guy. He managed to get into relationships with

(56:30):
thirty five different women by selling shower products door to
door for a multi level marketing pyramid scheme. So that's
what God gets him in trouble. But what he would
do is he would start to go, hey, why don't
we have a date. Let's go on a date. Let's
and he would tell them his birthday is at a
different time of the year. He would constantly get presents

(56:50):
a year long. It wasn't like one day where they
all showered him because you can't go to thirty five celebrations.
What a character. But the scam is the pyramid scheme.
I don't think it's illegal to have thirty five girlfriends
who told them a different birthday. No, but it is
a way. It is a scam to get birthday presents.

(57:11):
You're lying and deceiving. Legally, yeah, legally, he's not doing
anything wrong, but he's counting on these vulnerable women. I
don't know how vulnerable they are. I just l well,
I'm saying, if a guy shows up in my door
selling door to door, I'm going to be in a
vulnerable place if I start dating him. Not me, I'm
gonna be going You're a hustler, Like a hustler. I

(57:32):
scambled up in February when a few of his girlfriends
found out about each other and they started tracking down
more women who thought they were in a relationship with them.
It wasn't even that lucrative, like we said, he did
all this work. He had an Excel spreadsheet. He took
down about fourteen hundred bucks. Now he's facing Pride charges
for the other stuff. Yeah, but that's a lot to
keep up with. Oh yeah, I mean that's the pyramid. Okay,
I'll date you, and then you date three people, and

(57:53):
then they date three people each, and you all get
me presents thirty five. That's crazy. That's the news. Thank you, guys.
Bobby's story. Hey, thank you guys for hanging out. Call
us if you want. Eight seven, seven seventy seven. Bobby.
I hope you guys had a great weekend. I made
some notes about mine. First of all, I don't watch
many movies, but this is the second weekend that I've

(58:14):
been at home and have travel, and I was like,
what'll I do with myself. So I sat down and
I watched The College Admission Scandal on Netflix, which was
about the overarching you know, Aunt Becky, what happened to her,
Felicity Huffman. They were just two little people in this
whole scheme. One guy had mastermind this whole thing. And
the movie is really good and they're interviewing real people,

(58:35):
but they're also showing you what happened with actors. Did
you watch it? I did after you told me about it,
and I thought it was really good, And yes, it's
so much more tangled and involved than I even thought.
I think that because it was Aune Becky and Felicity Huffman,
like they were the most famous, so they were making
the cover stories. But yeah people too, oh yeah, not

(58:56):
as famous, but were really wealthy, successful business people. It
just kind of was funny to me how none of
them were really criminals. Like what stood out to me
was that because they were wire tapped, had they been
at actual criminals, they probably would have caught onto what
was happening, been like, well, well I'm not saying this
over the phone, but because they weren't really criminals, they
were like, oh yeah, we did that, blah, blah blah,

(59:18):
like they gave themselves away. It's fascinating because I really
didn't know what happened. I just know that I got
really angry at a bunch of entitled rich people. Yeah
they got their kids in a school when their kids
didn't deserve it. And like Miosh, I went to Henderson
State University, a really small school that was pretty easy
to get into, and I had a lot of friends
that were struggling to get into schools. But then you
just see people with a bunch of money. Then we're like, Okay,

(59:39):
we're gonna pay, but we're gonna knock someone else out
of their place, and says we're rich, we'll take their play.
It fires you up. Yeah, you know what else? One
thing I took away was there's so many people on
there said, like, honestly, prestige in college, and like what
that is is because we've we've put it on this
pedestal to be this place. You have to go, like
really a lot so many colleges out there. You're going

(01:00:01):
to get a great education, but you just think that
if you go to this school it's better for you. Well,
so and you think you have to go to college,
you don't even have to go to college. Yeah right,
you don't. You get the education that you need if
you go after a period in life or or through books.
I did that. I thought it was good. I would
give that four out of five textbooks. Oh that's good.

(01:00:22):
It was really good. And then I watch King Kong
versus Godzilla Come on tell me. It was on HBO Max,
and I was really expecting that to be pretty dopey
because you got two monster monsters fighting each other in
the middle of the city the whole movie. Right, it's
pretty good. No, not the whole movie. They don't fight
the whole movie. No, okay, that's what Mike said. They
fight some, they fight the beginning, they fight at the end,

(01:00:43):
but you're just learning stories about and I think it's
a basund true story. Stop. It's pretty good. I give
it three point seven five Monkey suits. Man, I want
to watch it, but it stresses me out, like, as
can't they fight in a place where are not destroying things?
I absolutely agree, I agree, But dude, they're too big

(01:01:06):
for an open field. But is Mike Mike D's does
movie Mike's podcast? Did you like it? Yeah? Yeah, it's good.
It's got the girl from Stranger Things, Millie Bobby Brown.
Yea seven eleven. I'm thinking of seven eleven. Obviously, I
thought it's pretty good, so I was in all right.

(01:01:26):
We watched a couple episodes of Succession, which we could
never really get into. We'd watch like five episodes and
we're like, what are we missing with this show? And
then now it's just now, at the end of season one,
starting to get good to us, Okay, good, fine, like
what are we missing? We're like, oh, we're not smart
enough for this show, but it's good. It's starting to
get good. So watched a bunch of stuff. Um what else.

(01:01:47):
My original wedding date was going to be this past
weekend's oh yeah, right. Had we been able to have
the wedding the way we wanted to have it because
we delayed it because the pandemic, it would have been
this weekend and you would have been married by now.
On that day, it rained like crazy, w what an
amazing blessing, And Caitlin was like, I would have just

(01:02:08):
been crying. I've been crying the whole time thinking we're
gonna have a rained out wedding or a muddy wedding.
So but it was supposed to be our wedding day.
It wasn't, but it was good. We went went to
the mall, or walking around the mall because we're looking
for Amy's daughter some shoes. It was her birthday party.
Went to her birthday party too. I'll talk about that
in a secon because I kind of got in trouble
with Amy's birthday party. Did you hear no what I

(01:02:29):
yelled at a kid? No? Okay, So anyway, we'll get
to that a second. Oh my gosh. So we're we're
at the mall, walking around and we go and we
got something to eat real quick in the mall and
I see somebody waving at me if they're in a
mask and they have glasses on a No, it's just
a person. I was like, hey, guy, hey girl. I
just waved everybody at this point, and so I go
liked eating and she's like hey. So she pulled out

(01:02:51):
her mask and it was Kara Fairchild from a little
big town nice and so she was waiting and she come.
She came over and we talked like fifteen minut and
it was great, good to see her again. And she's
just really I always say it, they're the nicest people
a little big town. But you know, we have a
relationship with Karen that pretty friendly outside of even the
radio show. But it was great to see her the

(01:03:12):
first time she had met Caitlin. Though we really haven't
man anybody that's not in our super circle. You know,
we're just now starting to go out and you know,
be around folks and stuff. So I saw Kara farreschild
at the mall. Celebrities are just like us. They're shopping
at the mall, they're eating at the mall. Let's see.
I went to Amy's daughter's fourteenth birthday party. Crazy to

(01:03:33):
think she's fourteen years old. I know, how long did
you adopt her? Well, she arrived when she was ten
and now she's fourteen, so she got here at ten.
When did I meet her? What was she nine? Come
out to the orphanage in Haiti? Maybe eight or nine? Crazy,
I can't remember when you went to Haiti because you
went without me. Yeah. True, So she's fourteen. I think

(01:03:53):
we're very close to your daughter. We go over and
I want to get her some good shoes, and Kitla
wants to get her some shoes, so we got her
some furry ugs and then we got her some Jordan's
and it was a nice little birthday party, but with
a lot of really good people there. Swimming pool, food
and upstairs Amy has a ping pong table at her
house and I was like, I'll go play some ping pong.
Actually Amy's daughter was like, let's go play ping pong.

(01:04:14):
So I go up and Amy's art was terrible. She
was like, I'm good, I'll beat you. She's terrible. I
hit her with the ball twice and then she was
like I quit. Well. Another kid grabs it and he's like,
i'll play you. And he's like twelve or thirteen and
he starts whooping me. Okay, and he's whooping me and
they get a point on him and I nailed, like
hit on the table and it hit him in the
chest and I was like, yeah, I suck it. I know,

(01:04:36):
and he's a pastor's kid. I didn't think about it,
and I didn't mean to say it like that. I
just that's what I yelled at a friend and Haylo goes,
you can't say that, and I was like, say what,
She goes, When you hit that ball, you yelled, hey,
suck it. Oh, I shouldn't say that. So I like

(01:04:57):
to apologize publicly. That's just something I all in the
heat of the moment. He's whooping my butt pretty good, yeah,
and he continued, what my buddy, he maybe pretty bad
two times in a row. So but I did. Yeah,
I mean you are competitive, So I understand how that
took over. But yeah, let's let's lay off the suckets,
you know, said the kids. No more suckers, did the kids?

(01:05:17):
I promised. There an accident. And then I had a
friend who had a birthday party and we go over
and it was a really he's an adult, and how
old's he? Thirty five something? Your friend? Yeah, yeah, it's
probably ye young thirties. He's a songwriter in town that's
got some number one song, because that's some success. So
Eddie and I drive over and we're eating and we

(01:05:38):
sit around in a circle, and because it's Nashville, they
just pass a guitar around and they're famous song writers
there and they're all playing and hit songs, and so
they're playing and it goes all the way and I
don't have a left handed guitar, so I didn't play anything,
and so it goes all the way around. Well, Eller,
the dog we adopted, got really sick right before we
came over, and she ate some stuff from the house,
even ate a couple of those packs to say don't eat.

(01:05:59):
You know those those little package backs like poisonous, don't eat.
She threw them up. But we're like kind of watching
over and we had been there a couple hours and
we had to get home to check on her. So
we left after this guitar went all the way around,
but it got to Eddie and I was like, I
gotta go before Eddie gets the guitar again because I
know he's gonna want to play a raging idiot song
I want me to sing. It's exactly what I wanted.
So right before I got him, I was like, we
gotta go by hi everybody, and I was like, just

(01:06:22):
do one please. But we did it. What did you
end up playing? I'm gonna stay Oh. I mean, it's
it's hard because you know, like we sing that together,
you take most of the vocals. So when I'm by myself,
I'm like, oh boy, I don't know Bobby's farts, which
is most of the songs. So good luck. It was
a fun birthday. I'm never I'm rarely home to be
able to do stuff like that. So I had had
a really good weekend and I met some listeners at

(01:06:44):
them all yesterday. It's just starting to be more normalish,
you know, yeah, starting good, starting to be How do
you feel about your daughter's birthday? I've I felt good
about it. I mean, it's still we are still in
a pandemic, so some parts didn't feel totally normal, Like
there's some kids from her school that we didn't invite
because we were still trying to keep it small and

(01:07:05):
but I think overall, she was happy and that's all
that matters to me. Yeah, she seemed very happy. Yeah,
let's go over and talk to Sarah, who is in Georgia. Sarah,
we appreciate you calling the show. What's going on with you? Oh? Okay,
So it's hi guys. First off, but um sorry, but
my question is that, Um, so it's finals week and

(01:07:28):
I'm a whore. I mean like I'm I'm not the
best like like test taker nor study person at all
because my mind wanders like nobody's business. But my question was,
what are some of the best study tips that y'all
could give a college kids. Well, mine are going to
be extremely cliche, but they are. They are known to work.

(01:07:50):
You have to get enough sleep. You talk about focus.
If you don't have the right amount of rest, you're
not gonna be able to focus. You're gonna be exhausted.
And if you're exhausted, you're not going to be dialed
into those questions. So you gotta get sleep. Obviously, you
know how good you are at testing, so you gotta
sleep right. You gotta eat right. Hopefully that room is

(01:08:10):
a little chilly, but also take a little jacket with
you and as well, because if you're extremely uncomfortable, you're
also going to be focused. It's just about focusing as
much on those bubbles as you possibly can. That's the
end of it. You know how you're gonna do. It's
finals week. Hopefully you got yourself ready for this. And
what I want you to take from this if you're
not ready, is the next time to come up. You go,

(01:08:31):
oh no, remember when I wasn't ready. I don't want
that to happen again. I'm starting earlier this semester, so
you are where you are. You just need to physically
be ready for it. That's my advice. It's super cliche,
but that's the best thing you can do for yourself.
Now because you're kind of up s Creek unless you
know the stuff. I could probably moreso tell you what
not to do, because I like you not the best

(01:08:53):
test taker. I procrastinate, don't cram, and stay up all
night again That's what I would do. But yeah, I'll
be getting some great advice. I feel like he's the
expert in this field. The expert in this field says
you should study, wait ahead of time, and prepare yourself.
But that's not it. You can't always do that. But
just remember if you go into this one and you struggle,
take something from it, learn for next time. Like I'm

(01:09:14):
not gonna put myself in the situation again. All right, Sarah,
you gotta appreciate that call. Good luck. I wish I
could just give you, like always pick c A's crap
doesn't work, that's craw No, no, no, Marcy in Mississippi.
You're on the show. I appreciate your call. And we
were talking about a girl who tried to name her
daughter Cora earlier, but her name accidentally she was named corn.
They messed up the A in the end. What do

(01:09:35):
you want to say about this morning studio morning? I
will tell you that the hospital screwed up my son's name.
His name is alex Xandra, and they messed up his
first certificate and named him Alex Nadon. What well, so

(01:09:56):
what'd you do? I had that's it about six months
and one hundred dollars getting it fixed and couldn't admit
it was a typo. I mean, obviously Alex Nayder is
a typo on their part. They couldn't just go, hey,
sorry about that, Marcy, will fix that right up, No,
because it got filed with the steak. And the worst
part was they had brought me a worksheet to verify everything,

(01:10:20):
and I told them, then tis wrong. You have spelled
his name wrong. And they're like, oh, okay, we'll fix it.
Well they didn't. And I got his official birth certificate
and he was little Alex Nayder and you didn't leave
it right. You did fix it eventually, I did. I
did fix it just as quickly as I could, although

(01:10:41):
when I get aggravated at him now I do call
him Alex Nayder. Hey, Marcy, thank you for the call.
Appreciate you listening. All right, Thanks, so I have a
great day, all right, you two, by bye. A couple things.
Number one Gaby Barrett will be on the show tomorrow.
Pretty excited about that. We'll get an update from Lunchbox
tomorrow on these celebrity letters. He sent three celebrities a letter,
Carrie Underwood, Oprah Winfrey in the Rock, but he sent

(01:11:04):
him as a seven year old. We're seeing if any
of them responded. That would be tomorrow as well. And
tomorrow night on Twitch, I'll be hosting the show from
my house doing on Time with Bobby Bones. If you
have Twitch or you can download the app on will
be Jordan Davis, Nico Moon, Producer, Eddie and Caitlin. This
is a whole situation so yeah, yeah, big day down,

(01:11:29):
Sorry up to day. This story comes to us from
Little Rock, Arkansas. A thirty three year old man was
getting out of jail about two forty am because public intoxication.
He's sobered up, go on home, keeps calling people, has
no ride. He walks out front and he's like, oh,
there's a cop car running the cop and taking someone
in that he was booking into jail. So he jumped

(01:11:50):
in the Cops Explorer and drove it home, just home.
Just parked it. Yeah, I parked it right in his apartment.
Complex right in front of his door, and they tracked
it using GPS and they're like, well, this guy just
got a jail knocked on the door. He's like, man,
I just need to ride home. I don't know. He
didn't do any damage in the vehicle, parked it, turned
it off, everything, But what happens to him now he

(01:12:12):
gets arrested for stealing the police vehicle? Or do they
take him? They don't take him back to jail, though,
do they. Yeah, they're like, oh, man, Alicia didn't go
and drive drawn. I don't think they do that. I
was kind of hoping they would this time. All right,
I'm lunchboxed out your bone head store of the day.
Thank you guys for hanging out Amy. I know you
saw that video that the B team made for you, Yes,

(01:12:35):
I mean it was so special. I started. I was like,
I'm gonna hold it together. I'm gonna hold together, and
about I don't know thirty seconds in, I was falling crying,
and I watched every single person the listener B teamer
hold up a sign telling me that they're with me
thoughts and prayers, and it was so special and there
were different signs from yeah, all the different states. Yeah,
it would show their face, so they would take a

(01:12:56):
selfie that just said hey, loving prayers from California, Love
and prayers from Arizona, Love and prayers from Kansas. And
it was just I mean, it was so special to
see listeners, yes, all over the country just showing support,
and a lot of them, you know, wearing pimp and
joy and just it's just really amazing how how our
listeners are connected to us and us to them. Like

(01:13:19):
I just I was speechless. Amy's dad passed away, if
you wonder what you're talking about. Yeah, yeah, And then
they put together a super thoughtful video and they even
included some pictures of me and my dad at the
end and some illustrations where I guess someone had you know,
drawn out some of the photos and I was just
blown away. It took a lot of time and effort
and coordinating and is super special. Yeah, it was. It

(01:13:41):
was fantastic and everybody listens. It's on the B Team
page or as remember the B Team. We appreciate you guys,
just not for just for that, but for the continued support.
