Speaker 1 (00:01):
Come on, HeLa, Welcome to Wednesday's show, Morning Studio Morning.
Today is today, we're hoping that Eddie finishes his walk
from West Virginia to Tennessee. Physically, he's hurting, Mentally, he's exhausted.

(00:23):
But today could be the day. We hope Today is
the day. We're rooting that today Eddie finishes his long journey.
I do want to go over and talk to Chris
and Georgia. Chris, what's going on in Hey Bobby? What's
happening dude? Any much to it? Man? Look, so my
girlfriend recorded your show, Breaking Bobby Bones, and I had

(00:43):
a chance to watch it last night. Awesome show. Did
you think you wouldn't? I feel like you were a
bit reluctant by your tone. I was, I really was
after after watching me, after watching the things that you're
doing for the American public really touched me. Which episodes
did you see, Chris? The one were you on the Margin?

(01:07):
So you watched this week at the Towboat and then
the truck Driver? Yeah, that's those were two like really
touching people that like people that have really really fantastic
stories of you know, struggle and fighting through it. And
I appreciate that call, Chris, I'm glad you liked it.
Thank you, brother, and I appreciate you admitting you were
reluctant and still liked it, because that's hard to do.

(01:29):
There you go, and then tell you is a girlfriend,
Tell your girlfriend? I said, hello, and thank you. We'll
do it all right, buddy, see you later. Thank you.
All right, you welcome. All right. We're gonna check in
with Eddie in a few minutes. He is starting his
walk really early this morning. But before we get to
him live, let's throw over and hear his journal from yesterday. Hey,

(01:49):
it's producer Eddie, and day three is wrapped up. Man
twenty two miles. It's five thirty right now, so I'm
gonna get some rest. But that leaves me with a
total of ten miles tomorrow to the state line, and
I'm trying to finish that in the morning so i
can be on the air with you guys. Also to
you want some of my highs and lows of the day.
My high was that, yeah, we got on top of

(02:11):
a mountain. That was literally my high. And the low
is that we had to cross a mountain range and
that stunk. So there you go. That's my high and low.
Let's go over and open up the mailbage something we
call ye Hello, Bobby Bones. So I have a bit

(02:33):
of a predicament. I got hired onto a salary position
of my new job three weeks ago. I was looking
over my pay to date and notice something interesting. My
next paycheck is definitely wrong. I was paid double. They
paid me twice the rate, but I did not catch it.
Should I reach out and stop them from paying me
way too much? The company definitely wouldn't suffer from a

(02:56):
mistake like this. It's very financially stable. I haven't gotten
the money yet. Should have hedged my bets and wait
until after getting paid to say there's been a mistake,
or should I let them know? Keep pimping your joy,
Tony Jackson, Well, I'll go to lunchbox first, because this
has happened to you. Yes, And that they gave you
too much money in your account? Right, absolutely. I went

(03:17):
to deposit checks in the ATM and they gave me
an extra like thousand dollars or something like that. And
it's like, I'm not gonna say anything, So I bought
me playing tickets to Vegas. The company pays you too much? Yeah,
And the company's done it on my paycheck numerous times,
and the mic, I'm gonna say nothing. Why would you
say anything? So you did buy those tickets to Vegas? Yeah,
because you know they come to you, Oh, we need

(03:38):
that money. Money's gone. Sorry, that's my line, is line,
that's my line. So this person should just sit back,
relax and reap the benefits because they may never notice.
And you are living like you didn't do anything dishonest.
You just are living your life. They put that money
in your account, so if they don't notice, good on you.

(03:58):
So you're saying, keep the money. Now, keep the money.
If we look back at money's mind, Sorry whatever you say,
money's gone. Sorry, what actually happened with that money that
was gone? Sorry? They took it back? Yeah, took it back.
How long until they realized I'm sure they were doing
some sort of self add It was like six months

(04:19):
and they came back to you and said away, hey,
we're gonna need that money. And then they just took
it from me. But why didn't you tell the money's gone? Sorry?
I did, said spin it and they said we're taking
it back. Sorry. Yeah, they said, well we'll get it
one way or another. And they took it. I was
the sucker on that one. But would you do it again?
I would do it again because I lived life for
six months with that extra money. But then you lost

(04:41):
that money later, right, But in the moment, I got
to enjoy. I got to have an experience. If I
had given it back right away, I wouldn't have gone
to Vegas. Yeah, he got an experience out of it.
Do you have a lot of credit card debt? I
got credit cards. I've got a lot of credit cards.
I mean like in college, I probably signed up for
eleven credit card because they would give away free T

(05:01):
shirts and I'd go to sporting events like game baseball games. Oh,
free T shirt, Let me sign up for that credit card.
I guess my point is it sounds like you live
very in the moment, not worrying about what can happen
to you. La. Yeah, you know why, because we're not
guaranteed to tomorrow. Like you can say, oh, let me
plan for retirement, but why we may not make it there?

(05:22):
So why not have fun now? Like why not take
that trip that you've been thinking about? Oh, you know what,
I got three days off, Let me go here, let
me go there, and if you have the money, spend it.
Then I think you can make those decisions responsibly. Not
I might die, So let me spend everything to have
and ask about debt because are you doing credit cards?
You're just buying all kinds of crap. I don't buy

(05:44):
a lot of crap. I buy good stuff. But yes,
And also like people are like, oh, you know, you
started college funds for your kids. No, why because you
may not be alive. Yeah, I mean they they might
not be alive, or they could get a scholarship, oh
my gosh, or they might not go to they might
not go to college exactly, So why start a college fund.
I didn't have a college fund when I was a kid. Okay,

(06:06):
So Tony, you're telling him to keep the money and
if they ask for it, say money's gone. Sorry, Okay,
I think we know. That's not what to do. It's
not what to do. I would let them know, because
you're just gonna get yourself in trouble. Meaning if you're
holding onto it wondering, you're always gonna wonder. You're gonna
be like, are they gonna take it back? It's just

(06:27):
gonna be some weird stress. It's just always gonna be
hanging over you. If you spend it, you're gonna be like,
oh boy, I need to watch our money because it
take it back, they're going to come and get it.
If they're a company that is, as you say, financially stable.
They're a financially stable for a reason. They know what
they're doing with their money. They're gonna come back and
get it. Just tell them, hey, I think i've been overpaid.

(06:47):
We look at this place. Yeah, And you never know
that could play in your favorite down the line when
they're looking to give somebody a raise or someone they
can trust with a big project, like, they'll see you
as someone that has their best interests in mind, and
then therefore they're going to look out for you. Tony Jackson,
you have two of us here saying you should probably
tell them there's been an error on my paycheck. Tell

(07:08):
them because that's he signed the email. What keep pimp
in that joy? Pimp in your joy? Yeah, So like
pimp some joy their way and tell them about the
mistake because they're going to come and get a back
ninety eight percent chance. Yeah, And then and if they don't,
you're still gonna be stressed about, yes, because if they
don't you or maybe you never get caught, but the
rest of your life you're always gonna be that guy.
What guy never get caught? I just feel like you're

(07:30):
gonna get caught, all right, So two of us say
tell them immediately. Lunchbox says, money's gone. Sorry, you make
your decision now, Tony, after you heard us talk about that,
all right, thank you for that email, close it up.
We've got your that was about to clothed Bobby mail bag. Damn,

(07:51):
that's right. And if you want to email us, Morgan,
what do they do? Mailbag at Bobby bones dot com.
We know it's early, but Eddie has started his walk
early this morning. Everybody say good morning to producer Eddie.
Good morning Edie. Morning guys, how are you feeling? This
is it? This is the last day of the walk.
If you can do it, I feel like crap. But

(08:12):
I do have a short walk in front of me.
And how short is short? Ten miles? Yeah, that's nothing,
that's easy. I never walked ten miles in my life.
I ran ten miles once. That's in my mind. I'm
telling myself. People do this the Disney World all the
time or six Flags. Yeah, I guess that would be
a full day of walking around. Yeah, except for data

(08:33):
probably normally haven't done twenty miles and twenty miles and
twenty miles the day before. True, true, Well today, Eddie,
we're hoping you finished during the show. He's raising money
for National Angels. We're not gonna keep you too long.
We know you're kind of on a busy spot there.
But as you're going into the final day of walking, like,
give me one word that has described the last four days.
One word amazing. Wow, this experience has been amazing, like

(08:56):
getting to walk America with your own feet. Pretty amazing. Well,
it's only one state. I was fifty, but still, well,
to be fair, it's West Virginia, Virginia Tennessee. But you
have walked all the way across Virginia. That's why it's amazing.
And so now does he feel like the song is fitting?
I'm carrying your love with me from West Virginia down

(09:18):
to Tennessee. Has it told you he doesn't even think
the song means that anymore? No, tell Amy what you've
come to think about this song? To Amy, as I'm walking,
I think a lot, and I started thinking about the song,
and I'm thinking like, all right, George is a maybe
a musician from from West Virginia and he's moving to
Nashville to start a career, and he's leaving his love behind.

(09:39):
So he's just telling her like, hey, i gotta move
to Tennessee, but I'm carrying your love with me, which
makes my whole theory make no sense and this is
stupid true. But now you've raised a lot of money
for a good cost, So there you go. You guys
can go to Bobbybones dot com and donate five bucks
if you have it. Trying to raise enough money and listen,
if we had one hundred thousand, we will go bonkers.

(10:00):
The goal was ten thousand. We were you know, we're
basically ninety thousand now, So Eddie, keep on truck and
we'll catch up with the next hour. Thanks, guys, can't
wait for you. There he is producer Eddie Robton, the
Latest from Nashville and Tullywood Morgan Number two, thirty second,
Skinny Chris Stapleton, Darius Rucker, John Party, and Mickey Guyton.

(10:22):
We'll all be covering their favorite Metallica songs to help
celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of the band's Black album It
will be a fifty three song album featuring artists from
all different genres. The album will be out on September tenth,
with profits going to charity Differ Lanco announced a new

(10:54):
EP called honky Tonk Hippies. The projects will be out
on July second. They also announced a new tour to
go along with the new EP. Tickets go on sale
for the tour this Friday. Chase Rice reimagined his latest project.
The album was stripped back versions of all fifteen songs.
It's the album acoustic version and it's available now to lose.

(11:17):
Maybe didn't need the lines, didn't need the games. I
was lost to know. I'm Morgan number two. That's your
skinny hat. It's time for the good news, boyd. So

(11:38):
this guy named Jeff had been laid off during the
pandemic and his daughter was like, hey, I will help
you with your resume. Where do you want to work?
And he was like, I don't know. Costco seems like
it could be a good place to work. So it
was her goal to get him a job at Costco.
So she tweets out of a whole tweet where she's like, hey,
he's great, he's obnoxious. Working. He's painfully helpful, and so
she kept posting it and then people started to retweet

(11:59):
it to get her dad a job, and so Costco
reached out to her because it got so many retweets
and they were like, hey, let's let's talk to your dad.
Everybody's tagging us in this anyway, people keep retweeting it. Well,
at least give him an interview. So we went in
for the interview. He aced his interview, he landed the job,
and then she posted a picture of the employee badge.
Obviously the managers the one that found the tweets and
interviewed him. But now he's working at Costco. And she

(12:21):
changed her name on Twitter to read Rebecca mis proud
daughter of a Costco employee. Wow, And people keep on
some the is going, hey, that's awesome, great job. That's
a fantastic story right there. That is what it's all about.
That was tell me something good reading the story, because
I think Facebook or just my feed now of everything
gives me a lot of wedding stories. He's not about

(12:42):
to get married, yeah, and this bride wants to have
a peacock walk down the aisle with her. Why she
loves peacock's okay, but like, if you have a peacock
walk down the aisle, it's gonna be like unleashing angry
murder chickens and guests will be massacred. That's what I'm saying,
because the peacock is gonna get spookeed. Oh okay, I
didn't know that. I thought it because well, do you

(13:03):
know which peacock spreads the male? One? The male because
that's what they used to attract the females, and so
she wants to have it. But it reminds me of
what we're going through with our dogs. Like we right
now feel like our dogs will walk down the aisle Stanley,
who's a bulldog who is extremely loving but he loves
people and loves to run through people. Yeah, Ella, who

(13:26):
I mean, she's gonna get fixed next week, but she's
been going through heat for like a month. Pretty wild dog.
Are you already practicing them walking down the aisle? Like
not yet. We have two friends that are gonna walk
the dogs down the aisle on a leash, but they
could still you know, go Brazieri with all the people there.

(13:46):
And so what they're gonna do is when we have
our rehearsal. We're gonna walk them through with no people,
and if they're just fine, we'll leave him in the wedding. Okay,
but we are planning on having our dogs in the wedding. Well, yeah,
I feel like starting now, you and Kitlyn could just
like create an aisle in your house and start practicing it. Yeah.
I just think it's mostly gonna be about the people. Okay,
I do, Eddie, do you think our dogs will be

(14:06):
fine walking down the aisle? I have no idea how
your dogs are gonna do, Like, how what are you
baiting them with? Nothing like walking? Being a wedding buddies, No, dude,
you need the preacher needs like a dog biscuit or something. No,
they're gonna maul the preacher. By the way, these dogs
aren't bad dogs. No, no, no, Maul's probably the wrong word.

(14:27):
But maybe, like you know, Stanley, I'll ram right into
him giving a bruise in a shin. I don't think.
I don't think we can dog treat them, but I
do think if they're lead by someone who's strong and
they're held back, they'll be fine walking down the aisle. Yeah, Eddie,
worried about your suit not fitting you. I mean, here
you are, you're walking day number four. Do you feel
like you've lost more weight? Yeah, dude, for sure, especially

(14:49):
like the app I have, I mean a part of
the app. I've lost like six thousand calories. So that's
not good. But I'm also in a cheeseburger last night,
so I should be all right. Well, unless that was
like a double bacon ater, you should you should still
be good. Yeah, all right. So that's been the food
you're putting into your body as you go through this
rigorous physical You're eating cheeseburgers. When you're done, you're just

(15:12):
exhausted and you're starving. You're like, just give me a cheeseburger.
I don't care. Eddie's walking today should be the day
he finishes his walk from West Virginia to Tennessee. We
are you gonna say something Eddie? Before I went to
the walk, I don't remember what I was gonna say.
But Rod joined me for the walk for a second.
Oh cool. I mean he thinks it's a stroll in
the park. He brought me coffee and like a biscuit,

(15:32):
and I'm like, dude, I can't walk with all this
stuff in my hand. Well, anyone can walk for a minute. Heck,
I'll walk into work all day. It's easy as pie. Yeah,
I'm not walking one hundred miles. But I think he's
saying like Eddie's walking at a paste where he can't
hold coffee and food and still like keep the stride right. Yeah,
picture the ladies at the mall, like early in the
morning that pops bat some walk. Oh you're doing the

(15:54):
old power walk. Yes, I don't have weights in my
hands or anything, or I don't have my fists up,
but I'm powering. Eddie's hoping to finish today. The goal
is to finish today from West Virginia to Tennessee. All right,
check out with you later. Well, the question is from
a lot of our listeners. Did you ever go cash
in that check from the cat scam? Yes, we took

(16:15):
the check to the bank. So I do have an update.
Oh you do, okay, so let me reset it real quick.
A long time ago, Amy said we're gonna get a
cat from my daughter. She's highly allergic. So he found
one that wasn't his allergenic or something. I don't know
why you picked that cat, but you picked a cat. Yeah,
it's high. It's a supposedly a hypoallergenic cat Balinese. You
send him money, they go, oh, sorry, your cat died,

(16:37):
we can't send it to you. Yeah, like literally the
cat that we were assigned died. So we get on
the air and we're like, all right, track these people down,
we need this money back. And then all of a
sudden you get a check into mail. Yeah, but I
mean like a long long time had passed. So then
I started think did they feel like somehow they got
word that I think that's the girl in the radio
that you're scamming. You better pay her back because I mean,

(16:59):
lawyers and Louise and we're hitting me up like we'll
go after them. So the question is what happened. Let's
all make our guesses right now on foot Eddie walking
West Virginia to Tennessee. Eddie, what do you think happened?
When Amy took this check to the bank. The cashier
got it, try to put it through the machine and
it went okay, lunchbox, no good, Absolutely not a good check.
And Amy. Amy's emotions were, oh, I got a check too, Dang,

(17:23):
I was getting scammed again. I think the check went
through fine. I think they probably realized that they don't
want to get caught because now they're on Front Street here,
and they said, we better send her some money, Like
we're just gonna be out this money. So that's everybody, Ray,
what do you think happened? Just like you check went through,
but there's maybe a two day hold, so she hasn't
got the money yet. But the check was accepted. Amy

(17:43):
you go to the bank, you have the check, talk
me through it. Well we go and I'm like, hey,
anything suspicious about this check? Like what's going on? This
looks like a normal check everything. You know, I don't
even know if you do this with checks, but like
just like money, held it up to the light, like
everything seemed so legit out this check, Like I thought,
there wasn't a doubt in my mind that it wasn't
going to go through. And yeah, we gave it to

(18:06):
the person and she ran it and the money is
safely in my account. Yeah. Yeah, I think they knew
they had better give her all money so this saga
would end on a national stage. I know. I was
a little shocked too, because I hadn't worked up to
think that it was a scam. Because so many listeners
were sending me messages like do not cash the check,
which I'm glad I didn't just go like randomly deposit.
Like we took it in and it was a whole thing,

(18:27):
and I'm sure the bank thought I was a little crazy,
but it's fine. We got the money. So now we're
just on the hunt for a new cat, and I
got I have the deposit back to make a new deposit.
But I mean it's like impossible, Like I don't know
if these cats ever even really exist, because like everyone
I hit up online about it, I get nothing back.
Your search for a Polonese cat, Balinese whatever it's called,

(18:52):
is like my search for like an old Ford Bronco
that's not a total piece of crap, yeah, because like
we're just kind of looking aroun for like a sixty
eight to seventy three four Bronco and they're either they're
either all pieces of crab or they're just like a
million dollars yeah, and you can't even you can't find them.
But then you see people online with them and you're like,
how do you get that? Well, what it is, I
sent a deposit into this place. They were like trust us, yeah,

(19:14):
and then they were like it died, Like, that's why
we're man, yes, because like it took them two weeks
to reach back out to us, because we got an
update that the kittens were born and everything was great
and we were gonna get the cat soon, and then
they emailed us and they're like, oh the cat passed away.
We're like when they're like two weeks ago, well, what
took you two weeks? And they go because it's so Sash,

(19:38):
all right, Eddie's walking Eddie. We think we're gonna finish today. Absolutely,
we're finishing today. There's no doubt in my mind. I
mean I really at the beginning of this thought I
was gonna have a whole week to do this, but
somebody wanted me to finish on Wednesday. Yeah. Here's why
I needed Eddie finish on Wednesday, because if for some
reason something happened, like a bad storm like yesterday, and
he wasn't able to finish, I didn't need him. She

(20:00):
got a Saturday, so we couldn't enjoy it as a show.
Like a lot of people have donated to this, we
spent a lot of time invested in it, and I
wanted to make sure that he finished. And if we
set Wednesday as a goal worst case scenario, Friday he
was going to finish. So that Hey, Eddie, sorry, I'm
being responsible. Hey, who's your guy who never put you down?
This guy you've let him down before. I'm sure he

(20:20):
really doesn't. But yeah, he really doesn't let me down
that often. Well once a week. There was that one
time I was wait for golf for like an hour
and a half. And there's one time in New Orleans
where we were leaving after our tour date and I
was like, we're leaving, Eddie's late everywhere and it hit
zero zero. We drove to the airport. Eddie comes running
out of the out of the hotel like wait wait
wait yeah. Well also too, there's conditions that are out

(20:42):
of Eddie's control. Like Eddie can be he's in control
if he's on time to tour, but like whether if
there's lightnings to take shelter, like there's other things that
could slow him down. So I think Wednesday was appropriate. Eddie. Yeah,
thank you, No, no, no will talk at me. I
was gonna die, so I just to thank you. Okay

(21:03):
to God, we just heard his talk with God. That's
what happened. We are going to let you walk for
a little bit with check back in with you next hour. Okay,
all right, man, there he is producer ready here. We're
trying to finish that walk today West Virginia to Tennessee,
four days in the making, basically one hundred miles through
the mountains. Can't he finish today? You can donate five

(21:26):
ten bucks. Just go over to Bobbybones dot com. He's
walking for the National Angels. Thank you. You're Amy's pile
of stories. So a TikToker tested out a dog shop
color and almost knocked herself out. So honestly, this thing
is kind of weak. I'm not gonna lie. So I

(21:47):
cranked it all the way up to the level ninety nine. Samaste,
If that really does anything, I'm gonna just go ahead
and try to ninety nine. Yeah, we go level ten
on ours. Yeah, we don't even do ten. When we
used to do it, we would do it like six
or seven we did. Are you sure I'm positive I

(22:07):
would never shock you guys on ten? Okay? Well probably
I didn't. Maybe once. I feel like there were times
where I thought maybe something was happening to me. So
the hottest accessory this summer is temporary tattoos. So if
you ever wanted to get a tattoo, or maybe you
want to be a part of this trend. I mean
they cost about forty dollars to get a good one,

(22:27):
and you can apply it on and they'll last for
about two weeks and then you can wash it off
and then you're a part of like the whole tattoo trend. Well,
these aren't the ones that you stick on your arm
and you peel the sticker back. Yeah, it's not like
the one that you get in like cracker jack box
or something. No, it's like a legit temporary tattoo. You
can order them and get them foot on and it's
pretty awesome. Well, they last a little bit too. Like

(22:49):
you said, two weeks. I would compare it too if
you ever got a spray tan, which I will say
I have, yes many times. Yes I have another one
tonight because I gotta go shoot some stuff next week.
But you can't just wash it off. You can scrub
it over days and it can go away. But that's
what these tattoos are, so when you get one, you're
kind of stuck with it. So if you get a
neck tattoo, just to be funny, it's not going to
go away for a couple of weeks. Yeah, Searches for

(23:10):
temporary summer tattoos have gone up by more than four
hundred and fifty percent, so everybody is definitely very into theies.
That's pretty cool though, if you wanted to try one out, yeah,
and see how it looked. I know. So should someone
have to try one out on their neck or their face?
I think they should have to wear one for two
weeks before they actually get it. Oh no, okay. So
I'm pretty pumped about this because Amy Grant was my

(23:30):
first concert ever when I was a kid, and she
is headed out on tour. It all started because she's
celebrating the thirtieth anniversary of her album Hard in Motion,
and that's going to be coming out July ninth. But
she didn't want to stop there. She decided to hit
the road this fall and she's going to thirty nine cities.
So she starts in August and then wraps up in October,
so you can check out like Amy Grant dot com.

(23:52):
I think for cities near you, that is a significant tour.
Forty cities. Yeah, I mean that's so big that I
don't think she's going to be doing the classic country
tour of Friday Saturday didn't go home. It seems like
that's too many dates for that. Well, it looks like
she goes into a row extra. She's like, for example,
August fifth, sixth, and seventh, she's hitting up like three
different cities in a row. Yeah, that's I could still

(24:13):
be a weekend though. Anyway, it's significant amount. Only Amy
Grant song that I can think of right now is
baby Baby. Oh yeah, But are there other ones I
should know? Oh yeah, that's what love is for? Or
what about every heartbeat? Oh? Every yeah, every reason, every

(24:34):
heartbeat begam name, loud and clean, shame. Yeah. Yes, I'm like,
I don't know any of the songs, and I'm singing
along our greatest hits. And then in fifth grade at
my talent show, I performed Galileo and it was so good.
I still know my dance routine, so I could bust
that out. She should come in here if she's promoting

(24:54):
a tour. Sh Mike d l Let's book her. The
last time she came in it was a surprise for Amy,
and all of that was about that surprise. Yeah, you
blindfolded me, And then she had to kiss you on
the cheek, but awkwardly, you did make me guess who
was in the room, and I never guessed her. So
it's walk heard. Oh yeah, let's have a redo. Let's

(25:14):
bring her back in and then your guess her first.
We'll blindfold you again. Okay, is that it? Yep, mammy,
that's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's
time for the good news. So this little girl, Vivian Meyer,
told her mom, I want to shave my head. But

(25:35):
she had a good reason for it. Now. She's lost
three grandparents to cancer, and at nine years old, she
told her mom, I'm going to shave my head in
fundraise to raise cancer awareness. And she started off wanting
five hundred dollars, but at the buzz off her kids
cancer event, Vivian raised more than three thousand dollars. Man,
that's crazy to shave your head. Good for her, I

(25:58):
mean that's I shaved my head once. When I was
in high school. It was our senior year. We were
playing Magnet Cove in a football game. We thought, if
we all shave our head and solidarity, we'll beat them.
We didn't win that game. We took our helmets off
the end of the game. We all got idiots. Yeah,
I left mine on. How is your head shaved? Like? Terrible?
I have a huge head. My mom cried, no, okay

(26:20):
when I came home with a shaved So I just
respect her so much. I mean, I mean, but also, yes, yes,
all that right. She's nine, she's doing something bigger than herself.
She raised a bunch of money. But even being a female,
like your hair is more valuable as a girl than
as a guy. Yeah, takes us a lot longer. I

(26:41):
thought I wear a headband too to cover it up.
I still had moles on my head. There's a whole
thing a headband. Well, yeah, like a sporty one. Yeah, okay,
I was picturing like a cute little top knot no,
like a headband like and it was not. It was
not a good look. Man. We lost. We all look
like idiots. We pulled our helmets off to shake hands
that afterward, and they were laughing at it. Yeah, but
you probably it's united they I've hated Magnicove ever since then. Yeah,

(27:02):
all right, there you go. That's a good story. That's
what it's all about. That was tell me something good.
Here are your top three songs in country music this
week at number three Chris Young and Kane Brown Famous
Friends You Probably At number two Dirk's Bentley Gone, I've

(27:26):
Been Gone Gone, And the number one song again this
week is Luke Combs Forever after All, Forever Together. I
think that's the exact same as last week. Right three,

(27:47):
two one Wow, Nothing moves Whenever Luke Combs digs as
heels in and wants to stay in a spot. You
just don't take Luke Combs out of the top spot.
A big pop song right now is Duelipa levitating all right,
and the number one alternative song from The Imagined Dragons.

(28:08):
You know them? Yeah, I do like we love them
Thunder Yeah, my kids love them too. When the guy
wears like athletic gear when he's on stage, like just
like the gym's over there. No, he did an iron
man and then came on stage follow you from Imagine Dragons.
Let's I didn't know that i'd heard that one before. Yeah,
that's a good one. All right, Let's go over and

(28:28):
get in the morning Corny with Amy Morning Corny. Why
did the bank robbers call their travel agent? Why did
the bank robbers call their travel agents so plan their getaway.

(28:48):
That was the morning corny. Remember that woman we're talking
about that gave birth to ten babies at once, and
then her husband's like, hey, you gotta stop sending her money.
I never saw her pregnant. Yeah, yeah, he hadn't seen
the babies nothing. Well, the first story was she was
pregnant with ten babies. Then the ten babies came out.
Then her husband was like, hey, guys, like story three

(29:10):
of this whole saga. Hey stopped sending all this money
to me into her because I don't even know these
babies even exist. Well, now here we have it. Apparently
she's in trouble because she was never even pregnant. Quote.
The medical evaluation has shown there was no pregnancy. It
also shows there are no physical scars to indicate a
recent c section. Seems like she was just trying to
scam everybody. But ten babies. I have a lot she

(29:31):
could have just scammed with like five, six. I don't
know the five would have done it. I think seven
probably is where you go, Oh, we should probably give
him a little help. Yeah, they might need a little money.
Do you ever see octomom anymore? Lunchbox? I haven't seen
her lately. I've seen a couple of pictures, but the
kids are like twelve or thirteen, they're old now. She's
one of those stories that I look back and go, wow,

(29:52):
still remember talking about that, Like one of those before
things really want viral viral stories. Another one is the
woman who said she was abducted in like the van.
Oh yeah, she was out. She was supposed to get married,
but she was objected by two Hispanic men and a
white van and it really very grapecific. I think her

(30:14):
last name was Fairbanks and she was from Atlanta, and
then turns out she wasn't. She made the whole story.
She left, like just leave, just deal with him later.
But yeah, she made up a whole new story that
went viral. Speaking of viral, our guy Eddie is starting
to go viral, much to lunchboxes chagrin. He's out dominating.
He's walking. We're gonna check in with him live. We're
hoping that he can finish his walk to day. We

(30:35):
feel good about it. He's on the road, Eddie, West
Virginia to Tennessee. Will check in with him. Next. Let's
go check with our producer Eddie, who was walking from
West Virginia to Tennessee. Eddie, how many miles do you
have left this morning before you complete this epic, epic journey? Oh? Yeah,
epic it is. I got time about three miles, man,

(30:57):
I can smell the finish line. Yes, three miles left
and it's basically one hundred mile journey doing the Karen
Your Love with Me journey and Eddie, I'm gonna pull
up the number right now if we can get a
little toeboard action Raymundo, because when I refresh it, Eddie,
you have raised thank you one hundred and sixty eight thousand,

(31:22):
six hundred and thirty seven dollars. Are you kidding me?
One hundred and sixty eight thousand dollars? Insane? Wow, that's amazing.
So the original goal of this walk was for ten
thousand dollars, that's the dumb part. Wow. Whenever it was

(31:42):
about to did one hundred thousand. Last night, I was
at the Opry and I was with Morgan number one,
and she was like, have you seen them the total?
I was like, no, what is it? Goes it's one
hundred thousand dollars and I was like wow. So I
posted on my Instagram. I saw Morgan did a Instagram
Live with you that was posted on the show account,
and listeners just continue to pouring money, five and ten
bucks at a time, and now here we are close

(32:03):
to one hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. I mean,
that's the goal right now, it's one seventy five. If
we can hit that, Okay, let's go. I think that's
stable because Eddi's struggling right now. I am. I mean
I woke up and I'm like, oh, let's get this
done fast. And I did for about five miles and then, dude, honestly,

(32:25):
you know, my butt hurt like more than anything. I
know my feet hurt, but the adrenaline killed that page
every time I stopped my feet or throbbings whatever, but
my butt is killing me. On Sunday of last week,
he started walking from West Virginia to Tennessee. If you're
new to the show, and he's about to hit Tennessee,
he's about to do the whole George Straight walk. We're

(32:47):
so proud of you. You're not there yet. Three miles left.
Would you say this is the hardest three miles because
your body isn't such a bad shape. Well, I just
got energized by that total number. So yes, it was
the hardest. Jill, I talk to you right now. So yeah,
if you guys go to Bobbybones dot com, you'll see
it up there on the front, click that Eddie link,
and then if you can donate five or ten bucks,

(33:08):
we would be so grateful. Eddie's not keeping hardly any
of this money. He's not. You can also watch him
on the stream. So I'll let you walk for a minute.
We'll come back to you. Okay, all right, buddy, what
town are you in? By the way, Eddie, I didn't
ask that. I'm in Bristol, Virginia. That's right, because it's
on both sides. That's it. You gotta crossover into Bristol, Tennessee.

(33:31):
Oh but it's great though, dude, I haven't seen a
Chili's a long John Silver's. I'm walking in front of
a KFC right now. I mean, I'm in civilization says
their feet is frozen. No signal. I guess he's in
and out of signal. Yeah, dropped on us. Okay, go
watch the Facebook page of Bobbybones Show and you will
see hopefully Eddie walking. Let me talk to Marcia, who

(33:52):
is in Virginia. Marsha, what's going on? Hi, I just
wanted to conta. I think it's really incredible what he's doing.
My husband and I foster parents and we've been doing
this little over nine years and I think it's just
incredible what he's doing. Yeah, we do too. We're very
proud of him. What started as a dopey bit turned
into us helping a lot of families. Mostly it's Eddie,

(34:13):
but you know, this show and the b team helping
a lot of families that are foster parents with foster children.
So heck of a job. We're almost there, hopefully in
the next forty five minutes or so Eddie actually finishes
this on the air, So thank you, Marsha. How long
have you been listening to the show? It's fairly a
new listener, but I think it's absolutely incredible. So we
want to go ahead and donate to the cause. Oh

(34:33):
well nice. We're going over there to Bobby Bones to
let me ask you this. Are you now going to
be a listener for sure? Like, are you committed now?
I am committed. It's it's wonderful. We got the kids
in the car, we're going to ready to go to
daycare and it's incredible. All right, there she is. We
love we love new listeners. All right, Marsha, thank you,
have a great day you too. Bye bye. All right,

(34:54):
lunch boxes. Don't get mad at this, huh. You know,
I gotta be honest. I was against Eddie. Well, Eddie
did make the news. No, so this was when this
thing started. This is news in West Virginia, and this
is the first of probably many, hopefully not. So this
is Eddie making the news. W O a y in

(35:16):
West Virginia interviewed him on the news about his walk
Here we Go radio personality. Eddie Garcia is on a mission.
He co hosts the Bobby Bones radio show, and he's
now walking from West Virginia to Tennessee and raising big
bucks for a special charity needs to watch. Reporter Cherriston
Clark caught up with Garcia to find out why this
journey means so much to him. He decided, though, that
if he was going to tackle this challenge, he wanted

(35:38):
to raise money for National Angels, a charity that holds
special meaning to him. I got on the radio one
day and I just was making a point that the
George Straight song from West Virginia down to Tennessee, and
I said, like an idiot, well that's not that far.
And so they kind of made me put my money
where my mouth was and said, all right, big shot,
if you think that's not far, why don't you walk it?
And that's what I decided. All right, if I'm want

(35:59):
to do this, I'm gonna raise some money for a
foster care because I'm a foster dad. It's so dear
to my heart that it was a no BRender to
do this for them. So you hear he made the news.
Does that drive you crazy? Yes? Why it's first. I
mean he went for a walk. He went for a walk,
and so he makes the news for going for a walk.
Well not a walk? Is that basically a hundred through

(36:20):
the mountains. Yeah, we're back on the feed. We're back up.
We're watching Eddie on our Facebook page. He's walking. It
looks like it with a limp, but he's walking. Oh,
he's coming up on Hearty's put it on the news.
Don't be a hater. So I used to wait tables.
It was a really good job for my life, meaning

(36:41):
I learned a lot about service. I learned a lot
about how awesome or awful people could be because you're
really just depending on the kindness of strangers combined with
how good of a job that you do to actually
pay your bills. And so in that job, I was
a dishwasher, and then I was a bus boy, and
then I was a waiter. When I got to be
a waiter, I thought I was time. I was like,
I made it that I was at the pinnacle of

(37:02):
the service industry. And it was a great job. And
you know what, Hey, that's pretty good at it because
I could talk to people, I could make them laugh.
I was pretty good with drinks, only spilled a whole
tray on one table one time. I mean, just just everywhere.
And I worked at a place called the DeSoto Club
in the Hot Springs village, where I had to wear
a full tuxedo to work every night. And it was
such a pain in my butt to have to make

(37:24):
sure that full tuxedo was completely clean. And so I
would just do my danist and I get any dirt
and then just lay it on the bed and then
wear it again the next night. And so I was
working and I was making money, but I was always
okay if someone didn't tip me, well, I was like,
you know what, maybe they didn't have the money, maybe
I didn't do a good enough job. But some of
the people that I worked with would go out and

(37:44):
chase people into the street or parking lot and be like, hey, hey, hey,
you didn't Timmy in their tucks? Yeah, full close, So
like did you forget it Timmy and it hold it
up and be like hey right here, right here. And
I would go, you are crazy. You're going out into
a place where you're completely vulnerable. I never saw someone
chase someone for not paying a ticket, only for not tipping. Now,

(38:05):
this waitress went out because people ran out on a bill,
on a seventy dollars bill. Yeah yeah, dyning in dash,
which I would never go chase anybody for any reason whatsoever.
But she is twenty years old. Waitress abducted and assaulted
after chasing five people who ran out on a seventy
dollars bill. The twenty year old suffered bruises and a

(38:26):
possible concussion in the attack. Oh my gosh, a waitress
was allegedly abducted and assaulted by a group of five
people after chasing them down when they walked out of
that bill. The incident happened em fifteenth June nineteenth and
fifty fifties in Turnersville in New Jersey, when the twenty
year old waitress was taken away in a vehicle for
a short time after confronting a group she had served
in the restaurant. Surveilledge footage shows the woman being pulled

(38:49):
into a white Dodge Durino as one person flees the
vehicle before it pulls with the waitress inside. I mean wild,
wild that they didn't just go, hey, shut up, and
they got in the car and drove off while they
grabbed her through in the car, beat her up the
car totally. I was thinking maybe some teenagers that are
trying to be like, hey, let's dine and dash, but
these are just overall bad people. Here's the thing. I

(39:10):
don't care what industry you're in. Do not chase after
people if they're not stealing your kid or they're not
hurting somebody that you're around. Yeah, because it's just not
worth it, because they could do worse things than just
steal your stuff. Like she's gonna be dealing with that
for the rest of her life. Like it's such a
traumatic event. And it was a seventy dollars bill that yeah,

(39:31):
they should have paid, but well, I'm sure she wanted
her fourteen dollars. It's twenty percent tip, I know, And
I'll tell you what I can tell you. These group
people are wanting to give you twenty percent. If they
were going to tip, they were like a seven percenter
keep the change for a dollar forty. But that's a
really sucky story totally. I just wanted to share it
with you guys. I hope they're all in jail. Yeah,
am you telling block them up? The only problem is

(39:54):
when they get out, I'd be scared they're going to
come back. You're always go to people getting out of jailing, Yam,
I am. That's why I just rather let it. But
what if everybody just let every crime? I know, I
know I'm not saying everybody right, that's true. I got
robbed him open, you know, an officer. I choose to
let it be today. I know they're like, wow, is
that like pimp and joy? Let it be? Listen. I
know it's not the right thing. I just like to
avoid confrontation. Let's check the tote board producer Eddy's walking

(40:18):
West Virginia to Tennessee. We cannot believe how much money
he has made, and watching these little balls to go
do do do do do? The new number is it
put Eddie up for this if you don't mind, because
he's walking right now. There's no stream right now, right now,
it's no service, Eddie. Are you there? Yeah, I'm here.
The new number is one hundred seventy nine thousand, hundred

(40:39):
four dollars. We did it. It's got to one seventy five. Well,
we got the ones. I don't listen, I mean anything
over like seventy five period. We were like, we can't believe,
we cannot believe it, We cannot believe you guys are
this generous. We are so grateful. We are now one
hundred and eighty thousand dollars. Don't get don't give me
the itch for two hundred. Just don't give me that itch.

(41:00):
I feel like I don't want the itch because we're
too close to finishing and I don't want to hit
a hit a goal and make it seem like we
didn't hit our goal. But I found what what are
you feeling right there? Is that itching? I'm just great,
That's what I feel. I feel grateful, gratefulness. Oh, he's
back on the stream, Eddie, how many more miles do
you think you have? I think I have two because

(41:22):
Scuba and I got a little system going. He honks
for every mile that I have left. And I just
heard two honks. So he's walking two more miles? Did
that start in the beginning, because I've been like a
hundred honks. Eddie for four days has been walking NonStop
west Virginia to Tennessee, raising money for National Angels? Eddie?

(41:42):
What hurts on you the most? I mean, it's always
something different. Right now, it's still my butt. Man, the
right side, my right butt cheek is burning. I would
imagine it's because the slope of the road and most
of your weight is going on that right side, because
it's kind of think you're right. Do you feel like
your buns are a little tighter after for this four
day walk? Hey, it's funny you say that, Dude. This

(42:05):
morning I was feeling it. I'm like, hey, it's never
felt that plump before. We have some voicemails. We're gonna
play for Reddy here. This is Alie in Mississippi. I
know Eddie is walking and he's in Virginia right now,
and my family. I actually lives in Virginia and I
am super, super proud of Eddie, so happy for him.

(42:26):
This is Patrick from Virginia. Oh man, I'm calling in
for Eddie. Man, he's doing a great job. And I
know that walk down nineteen downhill was probably just as
bad as it was walking up those hills. Good luck
to Eddie, good luck to the show. Congratulations on all
the money he all raised. And I'm so proud of

(42:47):
you guys and love what y'all are doing. Thanks again
later one more. This is Voice my number three. Good
morning studio. I'm just coming say good job, Eddie. Keep
on trucking, Keep on trucking. You got the entire our
country watched you all. Keep on trucking, Eddie. I love that, Huh.

(43:08):
I'm trucking, guys, Dude. When you play those clips and
when people like talk to me, it encourages me so
so much, man, I love it. Eddie's about to cross
the line into Bristol, Tennessee, which would make his journey
from West Virginia to Tennessee complete. We'll let you walk.
We'll check back in in a few minutes. Producer ready
walking on Facebook right now, search for Bobby Bones. Show

(43:30):
you can see it there. A lot of people are online.
They're posting the message there. We'll even tag that first,
or we'll pin that first comment. It's up there where
you can go and you can donate five ten bucks.
That's it. We're just trying to raise that money. He's
worked hard. We're proud of him. We'll come back in
a second. I want to put on Susan who called us.
She is the CEO of National Angels. This is a

(43:51):
group that helps foster families. Hi, Susan, how are you hi?
I'm so good, obviously so excited. What are you thinking
as you hear Eddie walk one hundred miles for your organization,
National Angels? Well, I mean, it's just a dream come true.
It's unbelievable. We are over here just really watching the

(44:14):
numbers go up, because what it says is that people
care about children, youth and families in the foster care system.
And it shows every single family and every one of
the four hundred and thirty thousand children across this country
that they matter. We have a saying that every single
child deserves at least one healthy adult who knows the

(44:35):
color of their eyes and the passions of their heart.
And today that is what every single and over the
course of the last four days, like, this is what
the world is doing for these kids. So I have
just overjoyed, overwhelmed. I've been sending voice the most to Eddie,
reason off referrals like I'm freaking out. It's so amazing
how this kind of support. I agree, I mean it is.

(44:58):
I'm just amazed at how hard Eddie has worked in this,
the effort passion that he has for not only being
a foster parent, but for working with your organization. He
didn't just pick this today or the last four days.
He's actually been an ambassador and worked with you guys
a lot previously. So for us, for me, for this show,
for the B team to be able to come together
and do this, not for you, Susan, but for you

(45:20):
and all the kids who need it. Like that's what
we feel like this show it's supposed to be used
for and so we, like you, are thrilled. We're just
so thrilled. And I look at the number right now,
We're at one hundred and eighty three thousand dollars. Gosh,
it almost makes me want to go is there any
chance we can get a two hundred but Eddie is
so close to finishing, and I don't want to diminish
his if we don't hit it. I don't want to

(45:40):
be like, oh, like I don't want to put anything
there that makes us go oh yeah. But if you
think of it this way, we're already so far beyond
an hour. Yes, I'll just say this. If you go
to Bobbybones dot com and you want to get five
or ten dollars to support Eddie and to support this
wonderful organization, you'll see it up at the beginning, he says,

(46:01):
Eddie's Walk for Charity. You can also go to our
Facebook page and the comments we have penned. The top
comment five or ten bucks will be fantastic. Susan, we'll
talk to you again, maybe later today or on tomorrow
show once we kind of all catch our breath. But
we are very grateful for the work that you do
as well, so let that not escape me. We're just
so thankful that you do what you do. Thank you

(46:23):
think so much, And on behalf of every child and
family that will be impacted because of these five and
ten dollars donations, I want to just speak on behalf
of them and thank you for caring. What will one
hundred and eighty three thousand dollars do for you guys?
Like really, oh my gosh, Well, let me tell you,
Bobby that I was expecting ten thousand. So this is

(46:43):
like the best situation to have possible because of course,
you know, most charities need the funding in order to
serve and do what it is that they're called to do.
And so for us, we're going to use this seed
capital money to be able to reach and serve more kids. So,
just to give you kind of perspective, but we operate
in sixteen states and in twenty two cities across the country.

(47:04):
But our goal is to reach and serve every single
child you think, flamly across the country. So we have
four hundred and thirty thousand children in the foster care
system and so we will not stop until we keep
opening up chapter so we can reach and serve more kids.
So we're going to use this money for capacity building
to allow us to reach and serve more of incredible

(47:27):
families like Eddie, Susan. Thank you. We will talk soon. Eddie.
Keep on truck and Buddy and we'll check in with
him in a few minutes as well. Every time Susan talks,
I get goosebumps because it's you, so like I can
hear the excitement in her voice and just knowing the
impact that this type of money is going to make.
That you know, because Eddie's out there doing all the
work and our listeners are showing up. But I mean

(47:50):
this type of money. I mean, Susan, I know that
you know, normally you'd probably have to like do all
kinds of events are different this or that that. I
just love that our listeners are showing up like this.
I love it so much. It's just incredible, amy and
I'm I'm thankful for everyone at the show, and I'm
thankful for every person who has donated. It's just so
incredible and it shows people that you can make a difference.

(48:12):
And you might think, like, what's five dollars, What can
five dollars do? But when it's combined with three thousand
other people who are also giving what they can, man,
that's where the power is. So let the novelty not
be lost on everyone that we will change incredible people's
lives with this money. Susan, thank you. We'll talk to you.
So okay, all right, let's talk to Eddie real quick,

(48:35):
RAYMONDO before we jump out of here. Eddie, did you
hear that call? Listen to her? Man? I love Susans,
who knows? What's up? How you feeling? You're almost there, dude,
I'm a little over a mile away, and I got
goodle I still have good songs from that phone conversation.
So either that or I'm overheating on any more water. Dude.

(48:55):
I'm almost there, man, I'm palm okay. Eddie is getting
closer and closer to the finish line. You can watch
them on our Facebook page search for the Bobby Bones Show.
Thousands of people watching them right now. We're probably twenty
minutes out, twenty five minutes out. It's something like that
for Eddie finishing the finish line. Here's the challenge I'd
like to do. I'd like to what country artist is

(49:17):
listening right now? They'll calling donate these rich folks a
thousand bucks. I don't know. I mean because sometimes they
listen when they're dropping their kids off at school, but
nobody's in school right now. It's right, well, wake them up.
Let's see all right, Eddie, we'll talk to you in
a minute, Susan. We'll talk to you in a little bit.
You guys can go to Bobbybones dot com if you
want to help raise money. We're five ten bucks. It's

(49:38):
all we ask. Thank you. It's time for the good news.
Anita Sanchez was excited about her upcoming wedding and she
wanted both her sons to be able to walk her
down the aisle. The only problem is her seventeen year
old Sergio has leukemia and he wasn't going to be
out of a hospital in time, and so he wasn't

(50:00):
gonna be able to go to the wedding. So the
staff at the hospital in Los Angeles said, hey, we
got this, and they made a little ceremony themselves, put
up lights, made a bouquet out of paper. One of
the nurses was with the bridesmaid and he got to
walk her down the aisle. And then at the real wedding,
that video played of him walking her down the aisle
and she got married. So I wonder if that video
played and then it went to her other sons, then

(50:23):
her other son and walked, yeah, herd down the aisle
in the real life. It's a good story. Dan. They went,
I'm looking at the pictures now. They went the extra
mile there. Shout out to those guys. Shout out to
that mom too. Hey, shout the search. Shout out everybody,
shout outs all around. That is what it's all about.
That was tell me something good. I think we're gonna
finish this walk in the next twenty minutes or so.

(50:44):
Eddie is on the phone right now, walking from West
Virginia all the way to Tennessee, just like the George
Strait song says, Hey, Eddie, have good news and have
bad news? Thank you? What's up? I got it? You?
Are you talking to you right now? Officer? Will it? Oh? Well, listen,
I'll police. Yeah, don't worry. He's not riding me a citation.

(51:04):
I think he has a gift for me. I see
him pull over now beside you, and hence you spent
most of your time in selflest for Wow, for selfless Virginia.
Thank you so much. I appreciate that, sir. Thank you.
He gave me bones. He gave me a couple of badges,
one for me, one for you, and then sticker that
says West Virginia, south and south south West Virginia. Don't

(51:24):
confuse this woman, Hey, Eddie, did he give me a badge,
like like a real police badge. No, no, it's a
it's like a patch. But he thinks he gave us.
He thinks you gave us a badge. You know. Can
we arrest anyone with you? Okay? He says, hey, tell him.
Tell him. We said thank you, and then we appreciate
what he does every single day. All right. We said hey,

(51:46):
Bobby says, thank you. We appreciate everything you do every day.
All right, man, he loves us, Bones, he says, the
big fan. I saw him, thank you pulling you over.
I guess you're walking, but I saw him pull up
beside you and pull you over, and I was like,
oh no, tell him the turn of the life at
a smile or two. You actually said that for going
so slow, I'm hard to catch the catch up to. Okay,

(52:09):
go to the Facebook page. I don't need it. Bobby
Bones show searching on Facebook? All right? The good news
are the bad news Eddie? Ooof let's go bad news
for are we? Mike? We back? The good news is
that so many people are trying to donate Eddie. Okay,
that's great news. Yeah, go ahead. What's the bat it

(52:30):
crashed the site? Yeah? Oh no, we can't get anything
that is bad news. We can't even get on the site.
Like so many people went to it completely crashed it.
We were like one hundred and eighty three thousand dollars
we were trying to get two hundred thousand, and all
of a sudden went completely offline. They're working on it, though. Okay, okay,

(52:51):
I think you should. I think he turned around and
go back to West Virginia. I think I knew you
were about to say something super. I saw you as
I'm watching you on the stream on our Facebook page.
I saw you pulled over to the side and you
had to start stretching your butt and your calf. It
looked pretty painful. Yeah. Well, every anytime I see like
a curb on the road or whatever, I stretched my
calf out because, yeah, that tipens up. Man. And I've

(53:13):
really been worried the whole time that I'm going to
get a cramp in my leg. And I mean I'm
less than a mile away and I have it hasn't happened.
I'll knocked on some kind of wood here, but I
don't have any Okay, keep walking. We will check back
in with you in a few minutes. You're now in
a neighborhood. It looks like, yeah, dude, I can see
downtown like it's five blocks away or something. Well, knock
on someone's door, I ask for some breakfast. Eddie is

(53:38):
in Bristol, Virginia, really close to crossing the border to Bristol, Tennessee.
We're hoping to do this live on the air coming
up in the next fifteen minutes or so. I wish
we were all there at the border with like ribbon.
Look in the car, now go Amy, just go week
we get there, Okay, how long I'm gonna take me
six hours? Oh? Never mind? Gosh, you know, I don't

(53:58):
even want to admit to something kind of that I
was thinking, which clearly I wasn't thinking, because I thought,
why would it Why would it take so long to
drive to get there. He's only going one hundred miles away,
but he's not ending in Nashville. He's ending at the
border of Tennessee. But I kept thinking, like, why are
people having to drive so far to get to him?

(54:19):
It's only a hundred miles from us, but it's not. Yeah,
but then you stopped thinking that. Obviously. Then I my
brain caught up and I was like Okay, yeah, all right,
we'll check over Eddie in a second. You can leave
him on rate. Let's go ahead and do the news
Bobby's story, Eddie, are you worried? Don't have any sort
of injury? Like afterward there'll be long term Maybe I
don't know. I'm telling you, I'm pretty numb. I know

(54:42):
there's pain in there, and I just I mean, I'm
sure I've got something maybe like people have said, plan
or fasciitis. Maybe I don't know how bad that is,
but I could have that. Uh. Lab analysis of subway
tuna sandwiches fails to identify tuna DNA. I think it's
more like tuna flavored sandwiches. Yeah. I think we've known
that the tuna is not real. Thinks it's just something

(55:04):
you have to accept. Did we really expect it to
come out one hundred percent tuna? Yeah? I don't think so.
A lab test commissioned by the New York Times failed
to identify any tuna DNA in a series of subway
tuna sandwiches. That means one of two things. Either it's
so heavily processed that the tuna couldn't isolate a genetic tag,
or there's nothing there. That's tuna. Either way, I'm fine.
Just made me taste tuna. Just make it taste like tuna.

(55:26):
A bison injures a woman in Yellowstone National Park. A
bison is injured a hiker in the park. How the
bison hurt the woman is still unknown, but she had
significant injuries. Quote. We're not clear how the encounter with
the bison occurred. Park officials want identify the woman. She's
been flown to the hospital in Idaho Falls, Idaho. Bison
injure one or two people in Yellowstone on average a year.

(55:49):
If I were guessing, and just guessing, don't know the answer.
I bet she should take a picture with one selfie
and maybe not. But if you saw a bison, it
was right on the side of the trail, would you
not try to get a little picture? Close to a
one percent I'm not too good to admit now, I'm not.
Eddie saw a bear. Man, If that bear wouldn't let
me get close to it, I was taking a picture
of it. Okay, there you go. That's the news. Thank
you guys. We think in the next segment, Eddie will

(56:15):
finish West Virginia, Tennessee. We believe it so if we
go away pretty quick, we'll come back and Eddie should
be crossing the finish line. As he started in West Virginia,
he will end in Tennessee. It's basically one hundred mile walk.
We gave you guys a link to donate, but I mean,
in the best way possible. You crash the site. We
have no idea what's going on. The whole site is down.
You can't donate, they can't make more money. I mean,

(56:38):
it's the greatest problem to have. I mean, I guess
there are greater problems to have, like being too hot,
being too rich. Yeah, but this is a pretty good problems,
pretty good problem. All right, keep checking that link if
you can. We'll check in with Eddie next. Eddie says
he can see the sign. Eddie, are you there? You're

(56:58):
talking yards the way right now. Okay, don't cross it.
The site's back up, Okay, Eddie. The site apparently it's
been crashed the entire time. Don't cross it yet. Okay, Okay, Okay,
I'm not I'm not moving. We are going to cross
this segment. But the site we've been raising money on
has crashed again. What a lovely problem to have. However, Okay,

(57:20):
I'm getting the numbers. I still see zero dollars raised.
It's back up at least so people can donate. So
the donations are back up. Are we sure positive? Okay,
try to go, I mean, try to go. Donate if
you can. We were like one hundred and eighty five
thousand dollars. We were trying to hit two hundred. I
think we would have had it had the site not crashed.

(57:41):
Eddie is about to finish his journey. For those who
are just turning the radio on for the first time,
let me explain to you before Eddie makes that walk,
and you can watch this right now on our Facebook page.
Just go search Bobby Bones Show. You will see the
live stream of Eddie crossing the line. But months ago,
Eddie made an offhand comment about a George Strait song,
carry in Your Love with Me. Where's the sign? Oh,

(58:02):
we're listening in. Oh I got I got great? Okay,
drop a little time. We're listening in on Eddie finding
the sign. Well, I see the big sign, but they're
supposed to be a plaque on the street that I
can't find. But that doesn't matter. I see the border. Okay,
So Eddie says I that's not very far to carry
your love. We said, then do it yourself. Why is
the guy? And he goes, why would I do that?

(58:22):
This is the radio show. I just say funny stuff.
He said. If you raised ten thousand dollars for an
organization that I work with, National Angels, I will do it.
We put it on the air and you guys turned
ten and quickly it was fifty Hunday donated ten thousand
to sixty. We couldn't believe it when it got up
to one hundred last night. My eyeballs were humongous when
I saw one hundred thousand dollars. Woke up this morning.

(58:44):
Is one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Recently, the last
time we check before you guys crashed the side, it
was at one hundred and eighty five thousand dollars. We
have no idea what it is right now, or even
if it's one dollar more, because the love you guys
have shown Eddie and shown this show has crashed the site. Eddie,
how far are you out from the site from the sign?
I'm like twenty feet away. I'm under the sign, but

(59:06):
all I have to do is cross the street to
get into Tennessee. Are you ready to cross that line? Yeah,
let's go. Count us down, Eddie. All right, wait, there's
cars hold on, all right, here we go five four three.

(59:27):
I want to make this car stop. Joe one, and
I'm crossing the street. Guys, one hundred miles almost two
hundred thousand dollars. You made it, Eddie, you made it.
How do you feel right now? Oh? I feel good? Oh? Now, really?

(59:52):
How do you feel right now? Oh? Dude? I feel great.
Look there's a there's a Tennessee flag on a on
a light pole. I want to climbate so bad out
and grab it, but I can't. How physically physically? How
are you right the second? Oh dude, I feel great.
I don't. I feel no pain. I'm probably in a
lot of pain. I don't feel it, though. I'm sitting
down for a second. Now he's taking a break. We're
watching them right now. They're over fourteen thousand people watching

(01:00:15):
live on the stream as Eddie walks across into Tennessee.
Don't sit too long because you might not be able
to get back up. Yeah. So, Eddie, what's the plan now?
You just finished? What do you do with the rest
of your day? Oh I just told Scuba. Hey man,
I'm bad news. I might Paul asleep on the way home.
Oh yeah, I'm gonna get some gatorade, Bones, grab something

(01:00:39):
to eat, and then we're gonna head back to Nashville. Dude,
I miss you guys. I missed my family, so I'm
going to get back. Almost fifteen thousand people watching the
live stream right now as Eddie crosses over into Tennessee.
We are extremely proud of you for doing this walk,
for you know, putting your feet where your mouth is,
for raising a bunch of money, just for for doing
what you do. Man, it's four as you're away from

(01:01:00):
your family. We're very proud to have you on the show,
very proud that you're a friend, and very proud of
the work you've done. Thanks Bones, thank you, Thank you
all our listeners, really, everyone that donated, everyone that followed
me along the way and encouraged me. Bones. There are
about five to ten people here that brought signs and
watched me walk across. That's so cool to me. And
we're not even on the air there, No, we're not,

(01:01:23):
so so it's awesome. Yeah, there are a bunch of
random people going, what's why is this random got walk
into our neighborhood. Yeah, yeah, hey, Eddie, let me talk
to Scuba Stee for a second. You got it? Hold on, hey,
what's up Scooba to you? You did drive the entire
time at one mile an hour, and that too is
a feat in itself. Yes, so yeah, thank you? Are

(01:01:46):
you sore? My right butt ticket store, but my right
shoulder and store? I mean god, I really could do.
The massage was nice and comfortable though, so also thanks
to Hunday for giving us the Tucson, for helping us
out with some other stuff to make sure we could
be safe, or saying, oh, I just we need to

(01:02:07):
get Eddie a massage like we should arrange. Well, Scuba,
Oh that's what we're gonna do. All rights to see.
I'm here, all right, guys, Eddie. Congratulations, Scuba, nice work,
and we will talk to you guys soon. Thanks, mister guys.
Probably on the probably on the post show, Yeah, something

(01:02:28):
like that. There he is, Eddie, our champion, people's champion.
He's still there. I guess all right, Eddie, bye buddy,
all right, see you man. There he is. Eddie walked
all the way from West Virginia, Tennessee. We have no
idea how much money we made. Morgan and e Luck.
Let me see if it'll pull up. No, it looks
like he's going back to Virginia and he walks back

(01:02:48):
to You're going the wrong way, Eddie. Yeah, I don't.
We're trying. That's what we have. Justin Missouri is on
the phone, Justin How are you, Bud? Hey? Justin you there?
No luck with Justin Ray, I got him selected. Yeah, hey,

(01:03:10):
Justin you there, Bud? All right, we'll let him get
Let's go over and talk to Bill. Bill has been
sitting on hold. Appreciate your holding, Bill. What's going on
with you? Hey, Bobby, morning morning. I'm just going to
call and I'll let you guys hot on my daily
podcast listen. I've been listening for a long time, but

(01:03:32):
this morning I had to download the iHeart Radio and
so I can hear Eddie crossed that finish line live.
I'm a former foster child myself, and so I just
think everything that he's done to raise awareness and raise
this money, it's just awesome, and I want to tell
him it's my hero. Well, we will, we will tell

(01:03:53):
him that. I'm sure I'll talk to him as soon
as the show's over today. But that's very nice of
you to say, and thanks for listening, and thanks for
hopping on live man. That means a lot to me. Yes, sir, Hey,
can I give a shout out real quick to my
wife and kids? Yeah? Go ahead, Hey, Amber, I love you,
super Mackie. You're too young to hear this, but one
day maybe you'll think I'm a little cool for being
on the Bobby Show. All right, Bill, have a great day.

(01:04:17):
If you missed it. Eddie did cross the finish line
this morning. It's big. We played, we had the champions,
we played Carring Your Love with Me, and I look
around the room. Everybody's pretty pumped up, except for Lunchbox.
He was kind of this. Dauber was hanging a little
bit his head, and he admitted to me that way.
I was cheering against Eddie this whole time. I wanted Eddie.
I wanted Eddie to fail because I was sick and

(01:04:39):
tired of him getting all this hype for going on
a walk and everybody tells how awesome Eddie is. Eddie's
getting all the attention, and I'm like, really, he's just walking, Guys, Like,
calm down. So I wanted him to fail, sir. Everybody
could be like, Okay, Eddie's not that cool, Eddie's not
that but he proved me wrong. He did it, But
I wasn't that happy that he did it because I
wanted him to fail. Why not let that inspire you

(01:05:01):
to do something big instead of you wanting him to
not do something big? Why not instead of tear down?
And this is just a general rule I think for folks,
why not instead of tearing down what we hate, why
not build up what we love or we go do something.
That's a good question. Yeah, I didn't know. I don't
think about that. I do. I did. I build myself

(01:05:22):
up like I love myself. And I was just like, man,
everybody's calling it, Oh go Eddie. I was like, goodness,
give me a break. So you would have liked it
had he injured his calf and had to pull out, Yeah,
but then what about all the money that was raised
for national And that's what you guys would have to
decide what to do with that. That would have been
on Hey, he could have gone back when he got
healthy or what. I don't know what would have happened,

(01:05:44):
but the money still would have gone to the organization,
but Eddie wouldn't have finished his walk, and everybody'd be like, oh, man, well,
what was the hardest part for you to stomach? Was
it him getting on the news, him getting on the news,
and then just every voicemail seems to be allowed Eddie this,
Eddie that, and I'm like, hello, guys, there's still other
people around here. When he finished? Was that tough to

(01:06:05):
Swallow's that? Yeah? I was so. You know, I saw
those cars. I was like, oh, maybe there would be
just so much traffic and we'll never be able to finish.
But there was a break in the traffic and he
was able to cross that line. I was like, well,
now everybody's gonna be for the next two months all
we're gonna hear about Oh Eddie water, Oh gosh, Eddie
are so amazing. It's gonna get real annoying, real fast.
So I think we should probably limit the phone calls

(01:06:26):
for them, like you can have them for the next
couple of days, and then after that, like after Friday,
no more calls about Eddie walking, Like what if you
had done it though? Oh? Calls for days and days
and years. Yeah, pat me on the back. Let's go
so no calls after Friday about Eddie's walk, raising roughly
two hundred thousand corrects correct Like there has to be
a time limit, like we got. We gotta quit living

(01:06:47):
in the past like he did. It's over. But don't
you always talk about you being prom king and like no,
it was almost non stop. Yeah, that's pretty cool, isn't it. Yeah,
because that's not a lot of people can't do what
I did being prom king. A lot of people can't
do it. Eddie just did. Like a lot of people
go for walks every night. I see Grandma and Grandpa
in my neighborhood walking every night, not one hundred miles.
I don't know how they're walking. Right. Well, there you go.

(01:07:09):
I do you feel better now that you admitted? I do?
I feel good now that I can like let that
out and everybody knows. Because I can't be the only
one out there that was cheering for Eddie to fail.
Why would other people do that? I think, actually you
might be I don't think so. Was anyone here cheering
for Eddie to fail? Ray not to fail, but if

(01:07:30):
he would have gotten hit by a car, see, well,
I don't know why I was wrong with these people.
Go ahead. You want him to get hit by a car.
I wanted him to finish, but going one hundred miles,
I could have swore there's gonna be some sort of
injury that he didn't twist his ankle, that he wouldn't
have been able to get out of bed one day.
I kind of wanted something like that, and it to
be delayed a day, pushed back, our schedule, thrown off.

(01:07:53):
Eddie did it according to his plan, which was pretty epic,
and he timed it out before he even went, so
I got even props on that as well. Yes, if
you'd have gotten sideswiped by mack truck, that would be
kind of funny. But like, but he's okay, Right, he's okay.
But I mean I couldn't Finnish a walk man didn't
make it. He got mauled by fail. Ray wanted him
to get hit by a car more of anything you

(01:08:13):
want to admit. No, I when I did the live
with him yesterday, I had tears in my eyes. I
was really happy for him. So no, I don't want
him to get hit by a car. I wanted insane,
wanting him to possibly die out there and never come
back to the show no to Claire if I don't
think you wanted him to die, you just wanted to
get hit by Clint. But I was telling you you
got a good shot of dying if you get hit

(01:08:34):
by a car. He did it, he finished. Listen on
the podcast. How do you feel, right, know, Amy? I mean,
I feel great. I'm super proud of Eddie. I know
that all this money is going to make a huge difference.
And you know what, I was just thinking about our
listeners too, Like in the past two weeks, between Pimp
and Joy and building homes for heroes, like building Sergeant
Magetic a house and then Eddie doing this walk for

(01:08:57):
foster care families, like our listeners have showed up in
such an enormous way, like all together, it's what we'll
just call it, like three hundred and fifty thousand dollars
at minimum, which is so crazy, Like it's just beyond me,
Like how our listeners show up for to help others out,
and that's what it's. That's to me that gives our

(01:09:19):
show purpose and meaning. So I am very proud of him,
and I'm so grateful for our listeners for both campaigns.
The you know, yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, who
can say that their listeners have done something like this.
Proud of you, guys, B Team. You always come through
one hundred percent. We love it for it. We don't
ever ask for it for ourself. But you know, our
goal here as a show is to give back in

(01:09:41):
every way possible. If it's to make you feel better
when you drive to work with your friends, which hopefully
are us, or if it's to build someone who served
us in the military and was injured a house, or
if it's to help foster children, or if it's to
you know, on and on. You guys always come through.
So saying Jude, yes always, you are the best. I
say it over and over again. You are the best.
You are the B Team. You are just the absolute
A plus when it comes to groups, and I'm very

(01:10:02):
proud to walk alongside you, guys say. This story comes
us from Alberta, Canada. Husband and wife expecting a child.
Let's do a gender reveal. So they get an explosive device.
They go out in a field and they burn over
an acre of land. Anytime there's fire, it's illegal now

(01:10:27):
like gender reveals with explosives needs to be illegal. Oh
I thought you said it was illegal. Yes, I agree.
Any if you can crash or you can boom, you
shouldn't have a gender reveal, right, it needs to be
or a balloon. Yeah, although there was that one person
who had their their gender reveal and the balloon and
the balloon floated off and they couldn't quite catch it
and it floated off. They fell over the fence hurt themselves. Yeah. Okay,

(01:10:49):
well then so yeah, yes, cake in anything that's on
the ground. Yeah, no fire. Okay, I'm munchboxed out your
bonehead story of the day. Another video of a UFO
has surfaced. It's all the time now where this time? Well,
this time it was taken using an infrared camera on
a police helicopter. The September twenty sixteen video shows an

(01:11:12):
object not visible to the naked eye, moving at high
speeds against the wind. So they're looking at it. They
don't know what it is. Police say there is a
slight possibility that it was a drone, but since the
helicopter couldn't keep up with it, it would have had
to be one that you can't buy, feel like Super
Special or some government drone. Yeah, but then maybe the

(01:11:35):
police would know about it. I'm just saying there's a
lot of stuff happening here that we don't understand. Yeah,
but I don't think police always know what the government
is up to, but well they should. Yeah, what a
show today. We cannot believe it. Thank you guys so much.
Eddie completed his walk from West Virginia to Tennessee. And
not to do a complete spoiler on you, but go
listen to the podcast because even over the last few days,

(01:11:57):
it was really really a special event, one of the
most special things in a long time on this show.
Any race. So much money. If you guys want to
donate five bucks, you still can't go to Bobby Bones
dot com. This isn't for Eddie's pockets. This is for
an organization that works with foster kids, foster families that
Eddie is a part of that he works with outside
of this. So we're so proud of him, So proud
of you guys. Amy. What's going on today? I'm interviewing

(01:12:20):
Little Lizzie, you know, our friend from Austin. That's our
Instagram handle. So she's coming on my podcast. So I'm
excited to sit down with her today. What about you?
I have a suit fitting, I have a haircut, suit
fitting for your wedding. Yeah, okay, I have a dentist
appointment at three. It's it's a pretty crazy day, and
I can't do anything after three because I have to
go on for some pretty serious dental work, so I
can't schedule anything after three. Yeah. I don't know if

(01:12:43):
it's like Hippa, but I was there yesterday. He told
me you were coming today. Am I supposed to know that? Interesting?
You can get onto him for that. If not, I
think he was just casual. Like I see Bobby tomorrow.
I'm like, okay, well my doctor's not being casual people
do Hey, yes, okay, look at the boat. Well Dennis
is different. Plus, like I think you needed to get

(01:13:04):
in one day and I helped you get into. Yeah,
but he still should know that. Yeah, he's a great guy.
If you recommend me to a doctor, they can go.
Will said, you told me I already know a mutual
doctor we have and he would never tell me. Oh
I hope. I just didn't get our your dinners in
trouble and he probably did. All right, there you go.
He's being barred right now from whatever that is. I
see you guys tomorrow. Have a great day Eddie. Congratulations.

(01:13:24):
We are given Eddie the day off tomorrow. Obviously, we'll
check in with him on the phone though tomorrow to
see how he's feeling. Otherwise, we're good by everybody.
