Speaker 3 (03:36):
I just don't want it.

Speaker 7 (03:37):
I could do one of those things where it's like
I make fun of myself before somebody else does, because
I just figured out what he's gonna say.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
But this is what you should have done, is given
one you're really terrible at, because then they.

Speaker 5 (04:16):
I was going to say that.

Speaker 7 (04:17):

to say, I'm not dumb. So that's how I figured
out what lunchboxes is, but I'm trying not to say
the word dumb, So I said, I am smart. I'll
figure it out. I figured it out in his marriage.

you want to go that one.

Speaker 7 (04:50):
It okay.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Well we're here Amy taking shots at herself. Amy like that.

Speaker 7 (04:55):
You know, that's what's.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Going Time to open up the mail bag. You friends the.

Speaker 8 (05:01):
Name mail am bat all the air to pick something
we call Bobby's mail bag.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
Yeah, hello, Bobby. I think I just busted my mom
cheating on my dad.

Speaker 7 (05:12):
This is a mail bag.

Speaker 3 (05:13):
Heye, people sending all kinds of stuff.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
It's not like I was snooping. But my mom and
I have phones that look identical. I heard what I
thought was my phone buzz with a text message. I
realized it was hers and it wasn't protected with the password.
When I opened I saw her text message screen with
some rather disturbing and graphic messages from a dude named
we'll call him Jack. For the record, my dad's name

(05:37):
is not Jack. Now I feel this massive burden on
what to do with this information or if I should
do anything. Do I talk with my mom about it?
Do I tell dad what's up? Do I use the
info to negotiate for a new car for me? I'm
kidding about the last one? Okay, good? What do you
think about this? Signed son of a cheater? Question mark? Boy?

(05:57):
Mom and dad's different than friends, and I think you
have to talk to your mom first. I don't run
to your dad and go I call mom cheating. I
think you go to your mom and you clear up
any confusion if there is any about what you saw,
and let her explain. And if it's an explanation you're

(06:18):
good with, then you'd be good with it. If it's
an explanation you're not good with, then then you got
to go to the stage, which you're right now. And
so but I think if you end up finding out
that your mom is cheating on your dad and your
dad doesn't know, you gotta go tell your dad. But
I think you have the conversation with the mom first,
to make sure that you're thinking the right thing. Sometimes

(06:38):
we see a little nugget and we tell ourselves an
entire story based on what that nugget is that we're
not even translating or reading correctly. Inappropriate comments and stuff, Jack,
I don't know how graphic they are.

Speaker 3 (06:55):
I'm just saying, who knows? She could be subscribed to
a tech service?

Speaker 7 (07:00):
Oh lay.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
The fourth time and a few weeks Ramy yelled up roleplay.

Speaker 7 (07:10):
I'm there could be an explanation. But if the dad
is Jack's Diane, I don't know. This happened to my
friend like four years ago, and they went to It
was the dad though, and the siblings got together and
went to the dad and and then the dad handled

(07:30):
it like this. Kids didn't have to go to the mom.
The dad owned up and handled it with the spouse.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
So I think two things that could happen. One, you
could go talk to your mom about it. She's like,
this isn't true, you're this wrong. Let me show you this,
this is what's happened that could happen. Or she goes
it's true and I'll I'll tell them because I'm embarrassed.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
In a shamed.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
Yeah, this happened to my cousins too. Oh my god.

Speaker 4 (07:51):
They found an email and then took it to my aunt,
which is their mom, and she was the one cheating,
and yeah they're not together anymore.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Yeah, man, it's crazy.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
Anybody else was like, yeah, this happened.

Speaker 7 (08:05):
Parents were married, that's how. So a card was found
in the trash, A card like a card. I thought
it was thrown out.

Speaker 3 (08:15):
Like a thank you for touching me.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
I don't know what kind of card, credit card, business.

Speaker 7 (08:21):
Card, agreeing Valentine's or something.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Like why would you?

Speaker 5 (08:26):
Why would you? Why would you be a stage Valentine?

Speaker 7 (08:29):
Remember listen, it was thrown away, but then somebody found
it your fingers?

Speaker 5 (08:37):
Why would you bring in the house?

Speaker 2 (08:38):
Why would you even get somebody hand written anything? When
you're valid questions?

Speaker 7 (08:42):
Wow, all valid questions. But the person that found a
ticket to my mom, Oh, wasn't you know? It wasn't me.
I was a kid. No, it was what do you
suggest that clean our house? Sometimes?

Speaker 2 (08:55):
The housekeeper?

Speaker 5 (08:56):
She turned dad.

Speaker 7 (08:58):
Wow, she loved my mom.

Speaker 5 (09:00):
Wow, that's crazy. This has got so many layers.

Speaker 7 (09:03):
She loved my mom.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
Okay, so what do you think you cared about?

Speaker 7 (09:07):
Her deeply.

Speaker 3 (09:08):
What do you think.

Speaker 7 (09:10):
I think you go to the mom, you talk to
the mom.

Speaker 3 (09:13):
What do you think?

Speaker 2 (09:13):
Yeah, man, just like my cousins, just go to the
mom and just see see what the thing is all about.

Speaker 7 (09:18):
I mean, get in your car.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
No, you got to get to the bottom up.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
Don't run to the dad yet.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
No, no, no, don't get back to him lunch.

Speaker 5 (09:24):
Watch what you do and your chili. I wouldn't mess
with it at all. I didn't see it. Parents, I understand,
and their parents.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
But Chilie, because it's your dad maybe getting screwed over.

Speaker 5 (09:35):
Maybe anonymous email Bobby is really good. That anonymous email
Barnary account. Yeah, but hey, man, I saw your wife
about with jack Oof.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
Okay, we're sorry. Doesn't happened to you, son of a cheater.
That's how you signed it. We're sorry it's happened to you.
Go to your mom first, let her explain or let
her handle it herself.

Speaker 7 (09:52):
And also go to therapy.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
You're gonna need it.

Speaker 7 (09:57):
No, child, you never have to read message from you.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
Did you read messages? You saw the card?

Speaker 7 (10:03):
Damy, No, I'm just seen. No, child, you've just said,
You've just said three things in a row.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
That.

Speaker 7 (10:11):
So one time I saw I saw a text on
my dad's phone and I can't ever unsee it.

Speaker 5 (10:17):
My eyes is a picture.

Speaker 7 (10:20):
No, it's words was better.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
It was like describing it.

Speaker 7 (10:25):
Was all I was an adult like that wasn't when
I was a kid. Obviously there's sex message, there wasn't dirty.
Listen dirty.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
Also, why do you keep gagging?

Speaker 2 (10:38):
Okay, thank you? That's the mail bag, close it up.

Speaker 9 (10:41):

clothes Bobby's failed bag.

So Bobby Bones Show interviews in case you didn't know,
and Dashboard Confessional one of my james back in the
early two thousands. So Chris is here from Dashboard going
on towards Counting Crows and you get tickets at Dashboard
Confessional dot com. But this is super cool to me.
Let me play some of these songs. Vindicated. I mean

(11:11):

oh I do, of course.

Speaker 3 (11:15):
Thank this song is.

Speaker 2 (11:16):

Here he is Chris Caraba, lead singer, the guy from
Dashboard Confessional on the Bobby Bones Show.

Speaker 9 (11:36):
Now, Chris Carabba of Dashboard Confessional.

Speaker 2 (11:39):
Chris, it's really good to see you. Good to meet you, man,
and it's good to be here.

Speaker 11 (11:42):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Been a fan for a long time.

Speaker 11 (11:45):
Well, I've been doing it a long time. It's suddenly
occurring to me now.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
You still I don't know, look twenty four, it's weird.
Do you have an aged moisturizer?

Speaker 12 (11:53):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (11:54):
Hey, so I have a lot of questions, especially about
when you first started, because because there are a few
people to me. Dave Grohl Foo Fighter started that by
himself Five for Fighting, was a single guy, then turned
into a band. Dashboard Confessional. Similar thing, right, You started
this as a project by yourself and then made a
band A Panic of the Disco. Similar? Is that all

(12:16):
kind of am I right on that story, right.

Speaker 11 (12:18):
About the fact that it was started by myself and
eventually became a band. But I think in my mind
in the early days, I know it is true. I
was in other bands that were proper bands. I was
in one particular called furtherest seems forever that was I
thought the main thing, you know, and it was only
Dashboard was only a side project. But all that to say,
the side project was all my friends are on tour

(12:39):
and all of their bands wouldn't be fun if whenever
they came home we could all play together. So I'll
just call this thing that I'm doing by myself a
band name, so it doesn't feel like preclusive and it
feels inclusive. My friends had come on stage of their home,
and that's not exactly what happened, but it was my
original conception for it.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
So the band is dead again. By the way, your record,
your un plug records are my favorite. I just loved
it so much, and you know, there's a lot to it.
So how many people are actually in dashboard confessional like
the dashboard? How many people in the band will on
this tour? So, yeah, it's all different, right, it's you
are the central figure always.

Speaker 11 (13:18):
Well, I guess I've been the constant, and there's been
quite a few long standing members, and there's been people
that when they you know, they leave to go and
do other uh and onto other musical projects or other
life projects, and then they come back. It's kind of
an open invitation to come on back. So like for example,
Scott our bass player has been in the band. I
think for this will be twenty years. That's a long time,

(13:40):
you know, but sometimes I go out by myself, so
Scott's not there.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
So when you're starting this project and you're doing it
by yourself, are you recording it on because everybody has
a bedroom story or a garage story?

Speaker 1 (13:53):
Like, what did that?

Speaker 3 (13:53):
Actually?

Speaker 2 (13:54):
What literally does that mean? Are you recording on like
some four track player? Is that the first dashboard or
you're just sitting there singing acoustically into a crappy closet
or microphone? Yeah, it was.

Speaker 11 (14:03):
It was a little task scam four track, but I
bought it a tag sale. That was what I started with.
That's not what the record was, but it wasn't much
better than that. That first record was recorded in a closet,
but you know, it had you know, foam patting on
the wall, so it felt cool, it felt real. But
the early demos I recorded a lot of them in

(14:24):
my van. In the back of the van, I had
like a just a single boombox. I can not a
multi track. So I have a tape of me running
through what would be the first record, which is called
the Swiss Army Romance. I ran through it all just
to see what a cool running order would be. And
I found that tape and it's the running order that

(14:46):
we used.

Speaker 2 (14:47):
Was that about two thousand? Year two thousand?

Speaker 11 (14:49):
Yeah, it was two thousand.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
So you have this tape, and was your expectation to
go out and tour this for Dashboard to exist? Or again,
was it just a fun thing that your friends could join,
like I what was kind of the motivation behind creating
this music with just yourself?

Speaker 11 (15:06):
I guess it was a glorified art project or something.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
I think did you expect it to ever be heard
by people?

Speaker 12 (15:12):
No?

Speaker 13 (15:12):
I expected to.

Speaker 11 (15:13):
What I'd hoped to do was put out the one
recording and maybe get lucky and press on thousand if
we could afford it, and sell them how and sell
them to people like from the van from the van, yeah,
and sell them to people at shows. And I had
one tour booked and it was I think this one
window where further seems forever wasn't going out and it

(15:35):
looked like just this neat opportunity to go out and
travel like just by literally by myself. But I think
it was eleven dates and then I never went home.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
When did you start to feel traction, even the lightest
bit of traction where it's wow, people actually like understanding
and relating to this music.

Speaker 11 (15:54):
I was surprised to find it pretty early on. And
I don't mean that there was many people at the show.
There weren't, but if there were, all five seemed to
get it. Whatever that thing was, they seemed to get it.
And I was really shocked by it by that, because
I thought I was doing something unfamiliar in the setting
of like the punk rock scene. It was definitely unfamiliar,

(16:15):
just to having an acoustic guitar and I looked like
a hardcore kid, but it didn't sound like that kind
of stuff. But it didn't sound like something you'd play
in a coffee shop either, So I didn't feel like
I would have any place where I would find I
was surprised to find like minded people so quickly.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
The term EMAO was tossed around like crazy, everything's emo
in different ways. Was that term prevalent when you started
to create this kind of music or do you feel
like you were one of the first ones to, you know,
really coin that in music?

Speaker 11 (16:45):
Well, I guess no. I didn't feel like I was
one of the first ones, excuse me to coin it,
certainly not. I thought it was. I thought it was
a misnomer, almost like and not. You know, that became
a four letter word later to some people. Sure it
ever did to me, But in the early days, you know,
it was I thought. I thought it wasn't deferential to

(17:07):
the people that I listened to that did that music
that was already called emo because there's been a whole
wave of it, a proper wave of like a musical
generation of like two to five years already. And so
at first I was like, this is weird that they
would call me that, and I couldn't quite figure it out,
but realized that the thing was evolving, whatever that scene was,

(17:29):
was evolving to include I guess me and my friends.

Speaker 2 (17:32):
Did you feel like that, because again, your music was
at a time when I was, you know, nineteen twenty
twenty one years old, so that music was very important
in my overall musical growth from where I was as
a kid to now. It was right in that timeframe
of being in college. Did you find that your music though,
was different to people, even though it was still kind
of punk rock, but just because it was an acoustic

(17:53):
that made it feel a bit emo to people that
was a softer feel.

Speaker 11 (17:57):
Oh it's emo, it feels emo, I mean, but I
guess because of all those obvious reasons that it's softer,
it's a different delivery, it's pretty passionate, and it's got
the It has the benefit of the kind of passion
you'll put into something when you think you're anonymous almost
you know, it couldn't conceive that people would really be
listening to this, so I didn't really hold back for

(18:19):
fear of how I might feel doing in front of people.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
What did your band think as you started to pop
off and you're by yourself that you were in Was
that tricky?

Speaker 11 (18:29):
No, Actually, well it became tricky or later when we
were two bands operating at the same time. Once they
had a different singer, and we navigated that really well too,
to their credit, but in the beginning they were the
guys that were like, you got to go do this.
And as a matter of fact, that one of the
first shows I ever had was that was a fish
not I guess unofficially a dashboard show, was because the

(18:52):
bass player of my other band, Chad from Further Seam Server,
said come over here, we're playing a festivals Further Was.
He says, there's a guy kind of doing what you're doing.
We should go check it out, but the guy ended
up being me. It was a ruse. He just threw
me up in the middle of a tent and there
was you know, thirty people there.

Speaker 2 (19:07):
And that's funny. Then that's supportive, even supportive time.

Speaker 11 (19:11):
And they're still my best friends that I have. So
I'm grateful that they saw where I was going and
it wasn't where they wanted to go. They were these
all these songs were presented to them as options for
us to play in that band, and they were right.
They didn't fit that band. They were close, but they
weren't on the money.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
Were you reluctant when success and fame started?

Speaker 11 (19:32):
Was confused? Reluctant?

Speaker 5 (19:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (19:34):
I think I was a bit reluctant. I think I
remain a bit reluctant. It wasn't exactly the plan, but
it was a lot of fun.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
Do you get nervous stays right at all? Before shows?

Speaker 5 (19:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (19:48):
I got it.

Speaker 14 (19:48):
Now?

Speaker 11 (19:49):
How am I doing?

Speaker 2 (19:49):
Are you doing great? I would never think you were
nervous at all? You're kidding now, No, I'm not.

Speaker 11 (19:53):
No, No, I get I have a weird roiling of
energy that I'm trying to contain when I go up
there and when I was new and younger and greener,
I would find it to be alarming. It would like
set off almost a panic attack. But now I understand
it's just adrenaline, excitement and kind of like the love
of it.

Speaker 5 (20:11):
But for a while it was hard to.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
Let it go. Was there ever a time that you
questioned should I keep doing this? Not because it wasn't working,
but because it really started to work.

Speaker 11 (20:21):
Yeah, things got a little hairy there, like where we
had to where we had to have like security guys
and things like that, And I was all thinking, and
I thought this was a really inclusive scene I was from,
and it remained so it wasn't people trying to like,
you know, rip my clothes off or our clothes off
or anything like that. But it's just like a lot
of people with a lot of stories that they wanted

(20:43):
to do, things they wanted to share with us, personal things,
what have you. And I remember like not being able
to go, I don't know, to the to the mall
or whatever it was that you would do. You know,
running errands became this weird thing, and the suggestion was
made that we that we take security. That was the
weirdest thing ever. The nicest people I've ever met were
these giant security guys. But it was it was not

(21:05):
a good fit for me. I was like, this is
bringing more attention. I can put a baseball cap on?
How about that?

Speaker 12 (21:10):
Now?

Speaker 2 (21:11):
Can you go out and put a hat on and
just live a somewhat normal life. Yeah, I'm not on
MTV anymore, and neither's MTV.

Speaker 5 (21:19):
Actually I don't think.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
I don't think.

Speaker 11 (21:20):
You know there's two Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's I've been
able to find the thing I'd hope for in the beginning,
which was this this path to be able to play
music for and with people without having to be have
my life totally disrupted.

Speaker 2 (21:36):
What was the first video of yours that was on MTV?
What was it? It was screaming in fidelities? Yeah, was
that weird for you to see? And there's a you know,
there's a line and you're we'll talk about the toy
doing with the County Crows but massive a massive hand
accounting Crows and Adam Durretz was in. We talked to
them for a while. But there's a line even in
mister Joneses like when I look at the television, I
want to see me staring right back at me. Now

(21:58):
that line is him wanting to him on TV. Yeah,
if that is that line you at all? No, it's
not at all. It's not at all. God, I wish
it was.

Speaker 11 (22:09):
I might have I might have had a different experience
having seen it. But I remember being like, I mean,
I was excited to tell like my friends, you know,
but it was not a thing I walked in with.
I got used to it really quick, though, Like I'd
get excited and to kind of like think about new
video ideas. I got excited about the whole, that whole
corner of what music could be, and it became really fun.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
Do you think you would be happier or would have
been then happier if you only had mild success where
you could support yourself create your art, but not because
there was a point when you just became so popular
it became pop. Your music didn't change, but you became
so popular it became pop. Was that the hardest time
for you? Or was it awesome? It was awesome.

Speaker 5 (22:52):
It was so great.

Speaker 11 (22:54):
I didn't really have to change, I did, you know.
We grew and our music did evolve, but I wasn't
being made to change and more and more people were
were gravitating towards it.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
It was beautiful.

Speaker 11 (23:07):
I was maybe a little tired, like physically tired. It's
a big world to get to, you know. And I
think there was a point where we were really doing
I don't know how many shows it was, but it
was like three hundred days out on the road, and
that was a long stretch. I was a good couple
or three years that we did that kind of schedule.

(23:27):
That was the only part that was really tough.

Speaker 5 (23:29):
To grapple with.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
Was it weirder to be home than on the road. Yeah?

Speaker 11 (23:33):
Yeah, maybe maybe always will be and maybe always was.

Speaker 12 (23:38):
So so that.

Speaker 11 (23:42):
That's something I think was probably good for me in
my life.

Speaker 3 (23:45):
Where did you grow up?

Speaker 11 (23:46):
Well, I kind of grew up in Connecticut and then
Florida and found music and all that once I moved
to Florida.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
And what about Florida, Like, were you exposed to a
scene there that opened it up for you or were
you already searching for it?

Speaker 3 (24:02):
And I don't know, it's warmer, so you're out. I
don't know why Florida.

Speaker 11 (24:06):
Well, I think there was there was a scene. There
was a music scene. Of course, there was one in
Connecticut where I lived, I just didn't know about it.
I was a little bit too young, didn't know an
older kid on the block that might tell me there
was a Youth to Today show or something. But when
I got down to Florida, a couple things happened. Was
I was really into skateboarding. And this is pre you know,

(24:28):
super popularity of skateboarding. You still get beat up for
having looking like you do it. But I found other
people like that that were into it, and I hadn't
really found that many people like that where I'd grown
up in Connecticut. But it also rains, like its torrential
rain in the in the afternoons there a certain time
of the year. So we would just like sit in
a car or at the skate shop with music playing,

(24:50):
and I'd pick everybody's brains about it. And then they said,
you know, there's they're playing here. Whoever it was, you know,
we started going to shows and so it was sort
of that just typical youth culture thing. There a friend
with a driver's license, that kind of thing. Well, like
I said, my driver's license, I just didn't have a car.
So a friend with a car and and the kind

(25:11):
of kind of meshing of those two worlds, the surf
and skate world with the music world. They're really entwined,
and that's how I found the music scene.

Speaker 2 (25:22):
Really, my assumption is it could be an unfair assumption
that you may have been a shy kid. If you
were a shy kid, how in the world did you
become a front man? Wow? Like, what was that proble?

Speaker 11 (25:35):
It was not my favorite thing it was, I should
say it was not my It was not an endeavor
I went into looking for how to be a front man.
I just wanted to play with people, So I guess
kicking and screaming is how I got dragged into being
a front man. To be quite honest with you, I
was really really interested in writing songs. It's just an
okay guitar player, just an okay singer. I was pretty

(25:56):
good at at arranging music. So so I was getting
in these bands and and felt like I was integral
in the band. But I was almost always just playing guitar.
That's what I really wanted to do. But I wasn't
like a ripper or anything like that. So I thought,
we're contributing as a songwriter.

Speaker 5 (26:15):
I had a place.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
Then who goes okay, Chris, we need you to sing.
We've heard you sing like a background vocals.

Speaker 11 (26:20):
That's how it happens. Yeah, that parts, could you somebody
do a harmony there, and I'd just do it, and
it was there, you know, And then you come in
with your songs and you're singing. I was singing the songs.
I was writing to the singer, to the rest of
the band. And finally somebody got annoyed with the time
it took to make somebody else do it. Just you
do it fine, and after a while that you become

(26:42):
a singer in the band, not the singer. This band
that I was in, vacant Andy's it's where I learned
to cut, where I really cut my teeth on all
things musical, certainly on all things band like how to
be in a band. But there was at one point
three singers, and then there was for the length of
the band there was two singers, so there was no
front man. It was we were trading off songs, and

(27:03):
we were always singing each other songs, singing on each
other songs.

Speaker 2 (27:07):
Excuse me.

Speaker 11 (27:08):
It was later when when I got into further and
those guitar players are like bananas and as writers. They
were bananas, and I was kind of like, why do
they want me in this band? And it was simply
because they liked my voice, which was weird because it
was never the thing I expected anybody to I thought
it was just something that I got to do, not
that something anybody would want me to do necessarily. So
that's kind of how it came to pass that I

(27:30):
got comfortable being at the center of things.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
You didn't demand, like I always demanded attention, Like I
demand attention. I'm a type a personality. I want to
be in the front. Now you were the opposite.

Speaker 11 (27:40):
It was the opposite. By okay, I think the opposite
thing might have been a little bit of like a
learned response, right because I was I was a shorter kid.
I have this weird birthmark when my hair grows two colors,
so like it's like it's a blonde right in the middle. Like,
and I was a kid of the eighties, so like
Gremlins is out, so I'm getting called stripe and all
this stuff and beat up for it or whatever, picked

(28:02):
on for it. And I realized, like, okay, I better
figure out how to blend. And and maybe that was
I learned that lesson too deeply. But once I realized
I could be more who I wanted to be out
in the middle of that stage, I would save it
all for then and really just be the guy and
have it be the key that turned you into the whatever.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
It is, the real you.

Speaker 11 (28:21):
I've heard it said, you know, oh, who are you
up there? It's like I don't even know you or whatever.
It's like, No, that's kind of like I feel like
that's me up there.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
So you start this project in two thousand, would you
say that Vindicated is this song that people would know
general public? You think Vindicated your biggest song? Yeah, it's
got to be, right, I would think so, but I'm
a little too close to.

Speaker 11 (28:43):
It, if only because it's in a Marvel movie. Yeah,
it's got to be the most I don't know whether,
like I never remember like charts and things like that
and what songs were successful by certain metrics, but just
that the most people had to have heard it in
the world from that from that man, you know.

Speaker 2 (29:02):
You have your guitar. Could you give us a little
bit of indicated?

Speaker 9 (29:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (29:05):
All right, I hope dangles on a string like slow spinning, redemption,

(29:26):
winding in, winding out, the shine of it is called
my eye, wrote me in so mesmerizing, hypnotizing eye captivated.

Speaker 14 (29:42):
I am authenticated, I am selfish, I am wrong, I
am right, and I swear I'm right, swear.

Speaker 2 (29:51):
I knew it all along and I am.

Speaker 6 (29:56):
But I am cleaned up so well, I am saying
on me now the things you swore you saw yourself
so clear.

Speaker 2 (30:08):
That's awesome, that's still so. I mean, it also takes
me back. There are certain songs that you hear, and again,
that was a really big It's like when you're like
a young adult and music matters so much to you.
Like I can remember where I was like when I
would hear that song, and I remember being in the movie.
That was a Curse and Dunce version right on, Spider Man.
Did you ever did you meet them?

Speaker 11 (30:25):
I did, but don't they usually called the Toby Maguire version.
But yes, I'm back young.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
You know what I guess I think it was a version.
That's funny. Yes, Yes, did you write that song for
the movie, because we talked with Adam Durretz and County
Crows about the song the one in the Shrek and
he wrote that for the movie. Yeah, did you write
that for the movie exactly, and.

Speaker 11 (30:45):
I actually I had them and I were just talking
about that about accidentally in love the other day, and
it got me thinking, you know, I submitted a different
song to the production when when they when they asked
me about being a part of the soundtrack, and it
was not meant to be. This single wasn't meant to
be in the movie, and I really like the song.
It still hasn't come out. Then they but the cool

(31:06):
thing was they let me see the movie while it
was sort of still like it wasn't quite dailies, but
it was like this the graphics weren't rendered yet. It
would be suddenly just be like in animation in the
middle of it, like a holding place for like something
to come later. It was really a neat way to
see the movie, and it was the story of it
was really in my mind as I left there. They're
just like sort of like the conflict of wanting being

(31:32):
pulled in different directions, wanting things you can't quite allow
yourself to have or aren't allowed to have. And I
got to our last day to that run was in Hawaii,
and we're all going to go surfing, and I picked
up the guitar and it just like kind of spilled out,
and I was like, you know, it's funny. Where did
that song come from? And I was like, oh, well,
there's this line dangles on a string. Maybe it's from

(31:53):
Spider Man. So just that bit of it made me
call home and just be like, would you want to
hear this other song? I know there's no time, and
so just like that, it was written. Maybe an hour
or two later, I called and played it for Leah
Vollak over the phone. She was the head of Sony
Music for Pictures and and she was like, give me
a minute, get me a tape of that. Sent her

(32:15):
a tape. She's like, could you actually I think she
made She's like, could you demo that today? It's like
pre like home studio kind of things like that. And
we were able to do it at the club that
we were playing that night, and they got that tape
home and somehow the next they were like, can you
fly home tomorrow record this? If so, it'll be in
the movie, it'll be the single.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
Wow. Okay, well yes, we'll be there. How big was
MySpace in your career?

Speaker 11 (32:39):
It was so big?

Speaker 5 (32:41):
Oh my god, it was so big.

Speaker 11 (32:42):
It was the biggest prob possibly the biggest thing in
my career except for Napster. Those were probably two biggest
factors in my career.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
Will you explain because I was big on my Space?
Will you explain on my Space? As to some of
our younger listeners, Well, it.

Speaker 11 (32:57):
Was like a do it yourself Facebook that was run
by renegades.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
I guess it was this.

Speaker 11 (33:07):
It was a it's a social network because the first
one I remember that you that had the framework of
what would really come in social networks like really was
very much like Facebook in a lot of ways. But
the way it wasn't was it was seemed to be
music and art related really heavily, and you could skin
your own page right and you could, so everybody's user

(33:28):
interface sort of looked like their thing. You know who
you were going to see, and there was I think
the reason it got so big was was people were
really hungry to just communicate about the things they felt
passionate about, and no adults were really looking.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
And was it they were using your music as their
song because you could put it. You had a song,
you put a song up as is your song? Yeah,
you put people came to your page. It was like,
this is the kind of music I like, you're forced
to listen to it. Yep, so is that what happened
with your music? People just started sharing it, but in
that way.

Speaker 11 (33:58):
Yeah, like if you're gonna if we're gonna be friends,
you got to know this about me. It's a big thing,
big way to open the door, an easy way to
open the door. Great shorthand. And we really benefited from
from timing on that one that we were that were
for so many people. We were writing some I was
writing I guess something that they that felt to them

(34:19):
like a way to explain themselves, and my space was
the way they where they could do that.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
And then my space got all weird and you get viruses,
and then it just went away. Yeah, it was really
a napster too, But napster kind of needed to go
away because when I was a kid, I would go,
I can't believe these artists they want us to pay
for this music. I was so offended. Yeah, I was like,
I can't. I hate mentalita, I hate all They were
obviously right, because you are creating an art and you

(34:45):
deserve to, you know, be able to live your life
based on the art that people are consuming. But at
the time as a kid, Oh, I was so mad.
I was like, I deserve to have this free, and
I download every song. I would just hit the letter D.
For example, I download every artist started with D, including
dea Confession, all of it. So for you guys, again,
music being shared by like minded people. I got to

(35:06):
imagine that was massive for you guys. For that brief period,
Napster was just killing it.

Speaker 11 (35:09):
Look, I will have an unpopular opinion. I loved Napster.
It made my career. Sure, it like took away the
livelihood I might have had but wouldn't have, So I
can only speak to how it affected me. And I
was I had a record made, but no distribution. And
later when I got on like a small label, they
didn't really have a distribution. And then when we were

(35:31):
popping off, the label that we were on next was
having like a war with their distribution. And that whole
time I could still get my music into people's hands,
and I remember being like, well, we can't get like
I literally couldn't get my records from the distribution place
when we were at that.

Speaker 5 (35:45):
Stage where.

Speaker 11 (35:47):
Could not physically get records. So I'd just be like, look,
just buy it. Later if you want to, but maybe
get it now so we can sing along together. So,
but where I do think that it did us service societally.
I guess there's a CDs were too expensive. They were
artificially priced in such a way that was that was

(36:09):
harmful to the consumer, I think, and so anobster if
if nothing else, was sort of the great equalizer.

Speaker 2 (36:16):
Now, yeah, but it took away a lot of people's paycheck.
I'm mad again.

Speaker 11 (36:21):
I mean, you shouldn't have it free. There's a you
should have it reasonably priced.

Speaker 14 (36:26):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (36:26):
Well, I was looking at your catalog of songs. You know,
Stolen was such a massive song for you as well.
When you hit this stage of your career was when Stolen.
I mean you you're You're a monster by the time
Stolen hits as far as people come into your shows.
I mean, I don't know that there was ever for
me a time to see dashboard and to see it
so large and everywhere you went was this. I don't

(36:50):
know what when I say stolen in that song, where
does that put you in your mind? About that point?

Speaker 5 (36:54):
Oh, I can tell I got it.

Speaker 11 (36:55):
I got a chill, even with how quickly it took
me back to think about it.

Speaker 6 (36:58):
You know, I this.

Speaker 11 (37:00):
I lived in basically a beach town, in a tourist town,
and so like when the easy end of the season
would come, you'd kind of get your city back, you'd
kind of get your town back. But also like everything
you loved about the exciting now of it all when
season was happening and you're a young person and there's
you know, action, activity, girls, new friends, all kinds of

(37:25):
things that felt familiar to me as I was transitioning
now into like another place professionally where it's like, Okay,
I wish I could go back there, but everything ends,
and I had this kind of I was conflating the
two things, like the beautiful temporary nature of it all
and how it's all fleeting, it's all transitional, and like

(37:48):
I just it was kind of a nod to like,
I think I need to acknowledge that I love love
it both ways. I love it when everything's happening, and
then I love it when it's really peaceful. And I
always missed the other thing. Whichever place I'm in, I missed.

Speaker 2 (38:01):
The other place.

Speaker 11 (38:02):
So the grass is greener, it's more like, remember that
it really isn't greener. It's special in both places, so.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
It's dead on both the grasses of dead or no hope.
Would you mind playing a little bit of stolen for us?

Speaker 5 (38:16):
Sure?

Speaker 6 (38:20):
You watch the season.

Speaker 14 (38:23):
Up It Sound Steaks catch the last weekend of last
week before the gold and the Glimmer have bun replaced
another sun soaked season fades away.

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Stall. Hi, you have stamdy the melody the.

Speaker 2 (39:11):
Do you write melody first or you a lyrics guy?

Speaker 11 (39:14):
I think it's concurrent most of the time. I think
I do the sort of a babbel as I'm singing
and catch a word here and there, and then I'll
spend some time on lyrics and then sing melody lyrics.
Melody lyrics is sort of hand and glove.

Speaker 2 (39:27):
How fast did that song come out of you? You know?

Speaker 11 (39:30):
I always think about this, You know, those those songs
that you wrench on and you really just really really
are nitty gritty, on the on the on the minute
sho of it all that take weeks and months or whatever.
By rights, those are the ones that should really connect
with people. But it's the ones that take you know,
if they come into flash, they connect with people. And

(39:51):
this was one of the latter.

Speaker 2 (39:52):
You your band dashboard, professional accounting. Crow is doing a
whole lot of shows together or fifty shows. How did
you guys come together to you know, we get on
this tour.

Speaker 11 (40:01):
Oh, we've been talking about this tour for for a
really long time. So Adam and I have been close
friends for It's hard to believe, but like maybe it
could be like fifteen years or more, maybe twenty, I
don't know. He's kind of been my favorite thing that's
happened about my career. Like people I've met, experiences I've had,

(40:21):
they're sort of always connected right to him. And and
he's my lyrical hero and my musical hero too. So
it's a beautiful kind of thing that is constantly surprising
to me that that like I still listen to records,
Like he's not that guy, like he said this, not
the guy I'm going to pal around with later. It's
a whole different guy when I listen to music. So

(40:41):
how did it come together? We've been trying to we've
been talking about it, trying to get schedules, trying to
get albums to line up, and we're here, and it
did it, and it did.

Speaker 2 (40:51):
I feel like people need to be quiet at these
shows between Dashboard and County Crows. People just did to
shut up and enjoy the show, would you agree.

Speaker 11 (40:59):
Well, I'm going to sing along them, so no.

Speaker 2 (41:02):
See, people are talking. I don't care if they sing along,
but they're talking enough talking. Yeah, if you're playing, because
I'm again massive Counting Crows fan too. Like look when
he sits down to the piano. Yeah, hush, yeah, shut
up everybody.

Speaker 7 (41:15):
Yeah, this is it.

Speaker 11 (41:16):
It's happening.

Speaker 2 (41:17):
Yes right now, Chris, I really appreciate you coming by man.
We talked about the tour a little earlier, but I'm
gonna say it again, The Counting Crows and Dashboard Confessional
the Banshee season tour. You can get tickets at Dashboard
Confessional dot com. It's over fifty dates and it's all
the hits. You play all the hits. Yeah, man, I

(41:37):
sometimes people and you're getting you're gonna hear all the hits. Chris,
big fan. Thank you so much for coming. I really
appreciate it. Everybody there is Chris Dashboard Confessional. It's time
for the good news.

Speaker 4 (41:52):
Pready Ray Stanton was living in Washington, d C. A
few years ago when he was working as a garbage man.
He worked for a trash place, and his coworkers were like, dude,
you're so smart, you should go to college. He's like,
I had never really thought about going to college, and
they said, dude, we'll help you. So his coworkers gone
online help him get the application. He enrolled into the

(42:15):
University of Maryland, got accepted, then he graduated from there
in twenty eighteen.

Speaker 2 (42:19):
He said, hey, why stop there, Let's go to law school.
So he applies for law school at Harvard and when
he gets his acceptance letter, he shoots a video of it,
puts it on social media. This is crazy.

Speaker 4 (42:29):
Tyler Perry, the filmmaker, sees the video says, whoa, this
guy got accepted at Harvard.

Speaker 2 (42:33):
I'll pay for his school.

Speaker 5 (42:35):
What.

Speaker 4 (42:35):
So he goes to Harvard, gets his law degree, he's graduated.
Now he works at a law firm in New York City,
and he's raised over seventy thousand dollars to give back
to Harvard janitors. I mean, this guy is amazing here
he is talking about it.

Speaker 10 (42:48):
And in my life was just based off of me
being a community oriented individual.

Speaker 2 (42:52):
And I got that from my dad. My dad was like,
just because you're going through something doesn't mean, that's an
excuse not to help somebody who can. So this is

Speaker 2 (51:07):
So Bobby Bones Show Interviews.

Speaker 9 (51:09):
In case you.

Speaker 2 (51:10):
Didn't know, we're gonna hop over and talk to United
States Marine Corps Corporal Aaron Mankin in just second. He
is in our Hyundai Virtual Green room. He is on
with us from his place, his home. I'm gonna tell
you he does not know that we're on with him
to hopefully build him a home. We've done this six
times before for different heroes that have served and have

(51:33):
had catastrophic injury. Corporal Macon has had seventy surgeries he
has and I'll let him tell the story about the
ied that hit him. And he's got kids, and he's
had burns and amputation and lung damage serving us, serving
this country. And so we have teamed up with building

(51:55):
homes for heroes to help veteran in the United States
Marine Corps Corporal Aaron. We're going to build him a house,
and he does not know that. So now we're going
to connect him over so he doesn't hear that part.
And he's on now and here he is on the
Bobby Bones Show.

Speaker 9 (52:12):
Now, Marine Corporal Aaron Makin.

Speaker 2 (52:14):
Hello, Aaron, how's it going.

Speaker 9 (52:16):
It's going well?

Speaker 2 (52:17):
Thank you, Good to see my friend.

Speaker 9 (52:19):
Thanks for having me.

Speaker 2 (52:20):
First of all, from all of us, we appreciate your service, obviously,
and I want to talk about why you join, when
you join, and what happened to you specifically. And you know,
I was going to be sensitive when talking about what
happened to you. So if I ask anything that's a
little too much, let me know.

Speaker 3 (52:34):
Okay, I appreciate it. Okay, cool.

Speaker 9 (52:37):
I'm an open book. I'll talk about anything. I think
it's important for people to not only hear my story,
but the opportunity I've had to educate people about my experience,
what it's like to come home.

Speaker 2 (52:50):
So you enlisted, what year and where'd you live?

Speaker 9 (52:54):
So I enlisted out of my hometown here in Rogers, Arkansas,
back in two thousand and three at the onset of
the war, and back then it was an or it
was you know, Operation of Rocky Freedom, when we were
going to liberate the nation. So that resonated with me.
That spoke with me a lot. The idea of you know,
the bush doctor exporting democracy and going out and helping

(53:14):
the world in that way really really resonated with me.
And I thought, you know, if I'm going to join
the military, if this is what my generation is going
to do, this is my generation's war. What what can
I do that that I that I do well so
that I could be an asset to my unit. And
I didn't want to just be another pair of boots
in the sands. So I took my skills as a

(53:34):
as a photographer and a storyteller and decided to become
a combat correspondent. So I started my training and deployed
to a rock in two thousand and fives, spent my
time in Fallujah, and was there to tell the Marine
Corps story.

Speaker 2 (53:49):
What does that mean? Tell the Marine Corps story? As
someone that's in the Marine Corps? Are you telling it
to people like us or are you telling it within both?

Speaker 9 (53:58):
Actually? So you know, I had a camera one hand,
a rifle in the other, and every Marine rifleman so
and especially having you know, combat at the front of
my bill at my job is to be expected. And
so I would write for I would write press releases
for the general for the base newspaper, but then those
were also released online and back here in the States.

(54:19):
And I did videography. I did several reports that would
come through the satellites out of Fallujah, and then back
to the States and wind up on the evening news.
So you know, the Marine Corps story is very much
in large part of the American story. And so you know,
just telling those those personal connections between the troops and

(54:40):
the home front.

Speaker 2 (54:40):
Did you find the fulfillment that you were searching for
whenever you went in to the service, into the Marines,
you had been there, you did your training, you were serving.
Did you feel like this is what I was meant
for while.

Speaker 5 (54:51):
You were doing it?

Speaker 9 (54:52):
I really did. I really thought that not only was
I in a place that that spoke to me as
an individual where I could lean on my skill set
and be valued within my unit and toward the mission
I did. I enjoyed it. Best job on the Marine Corps,
hands down, best job. I mean, I loved it. I

(55:13):
mean everything that the Marine Corps had its hands in,
I had the opportunity to go and tell that story.
So if we were doing training and awesome high speed
you know, helicopter operations or you know, mount training, or
a celebrity would come on base to entertain the troops,
if that's where the story was, and that's where I

(55:34):
would be in order to tell it.

Speaker 2 (55:36):
So we had mentioned before you came on that you've
undergone seventy surgeries throughout your recovery. But I do want
to talk about what happened that has well made you
have seventy surgeries. So what do you remember about the
day it happened to kind of walk me through it?

Speaker 9 (55:51):
I survived that blast. I walked away luckily. I don't
know how I escaped it. Why we to tell you
the god honest truth. I mean, it took the lives
of six marines and I walked away with no broken bones,
no shrapnel, really just a flesh wound. I had to
give my face and my flesh and a few fingers,

(56:12):
but you know, I had my life and got to
walk away from it, and honestly, every day has been
a blessing since.

Speaker 2 (56:19):
Well, was it an ied that exploded a lot of
times when you know we talked to you know, people
that have been injured in war, it's either an ID
they didn't know they drove up on. Or is that
what happened with you?

Speaker 9 (56:32):
Yes? Yeah, we were moving from one objective to the
other and our track just happened to hit a stack
mine through a twenty six ton vehicle filled with marines
chow ammunition through us good ten feet in here boo boo,
can crash it back down, and we thought it was
an ambush. We thought we were taking fire. But it

(56:53):
turns out that the heat was so intense inside the
vehicle all of our art and that started to cook off.
So all of our grenaise or flare are fifty calamel,
everything started to cook off inside.

Speaker 13 (57:03):
It was chaos.

Speaker 2 (57:03):
When you say cook off, does that mean like like
shoot off, like firework, like if a fireworks stand word
to catch fire. But that's like it's like real, real
stuff exactly. Oh man, So what happens then? As in
what do you remember next?

Speaker 5 (57:17):
Are you do?

Speaker 2 (57:18):
Wake up in a hospital?

Speaker 9 (57:20):
So at that point, uh, I'm on fire inside the vehicle.
I opened my eyes. I can see flashes of orange
and the and the pitch black smoke. My first reaction
was to just gasp, you know, just shocked, and I
inhaled all this fire and debris, and later surgeons would
dig out cardboard and blasts out of my lungs, and

(57:48):
panics set in, and I thought I gotta get out.
And by that time, one of our sergeants had muscle
open in the back hatch and the smoke started to
flood out. Daylight kind of trickled in and I found
my truck and I just dove and I just jumped
out of the track. I landed in the road. I
stopped and looked at myself and I was still on fire.
And so I started to roll and roll and roll,

(58:09):
and I couldn't I couldn't put myself out.

Speaker 2 (58:11):
I just.

Speaker 9 (58:13):
You know, exhausted myself trying to extinguish myself and and
I thought this is it. And this piece came over me,
and I thought, uh, this is how my story ends.
And you know, they say your whole life flashes before
your eyes. Ironically for me, being a photographer, I just
saw these like pictures. I just saw these little still

(58:34):
frames of all the people in my life that meant
the world to me. And as I was trying to
hold on to him, I woke up to the sound
of my fellow marine Jill, and put him out. Put
him out, you know, they run over, They dive on
top of me, and they're you know, kicking down on
top of He's trying to put the flames out, and
they do and then it's like they just evaporated. It's

(58:54):
like they just disappear and they all go to help
other marines. And I wasn't wounded from the waist down.
So I stood up up and of course in shock,
and I thought, you know, I need to get to
my camera. I need to get to my mission. And
so I started to walk back toward the track. And
it was about then that our navy corman grabbed me
by the collar and say, hey, you're hurt. You need
to come with me. And that's really where the story

(59:17):
of my recovery began. And I tell that story, you know,
to different groups around the country, and and I'll I'll
point that that part out specifically, and how often we'll
walk around in life and not know how truly wounded
we are and take someone else to come up to
us and extend their hand and their help and their aid.

(59:37):
So he gets me to the casualty collection point, and
then they got to get me on the on the chopper, right,
and it's like every war movie you've ever seen.

Speaker 5 (59:46):
Let's go get him on the chop bottle.

Speaker 9 (59:47):
Let's go, you know. They load me up on the
litter and I start running through a field to load
me up onto the helicopter to our air support, and
sure enough, you know, Murphy's a lot of things go
wrong and somebody fill over and I came tumbling out.
Now I'm back on the ground and we were so
close to the bird. I thought, you know, I'll just walk.

(01:00:09):
So I started walking toward the bird and Oliver Eede
start yelling at me, Hey, hey, hey, let down, lay down,
your in shock. We got you come on here and shot.
I'm like, I'm shocked that you dropped me right right.

Speaker 12 (01:00:18):
Get this.

Speaker 9 (01:00:19):
Worried some morphine, so they got me out of the
bird and got me out of there. They knocked me
out and then I woke up about two days later
in San Antonio.

Speaker 2 (01:00:29):
So you're in San Antonio and that's where they start
to really work physically through your recovery. Second third degree
burns to your arms and your face, ambutated fingers PTSD,
lung damage. I'm assuming the ung damage is from when
you were breathing in and the fire. That's all you
took in there. Yes, so physically it has been extremely

(01:00:51):
to have seventy surgeries. That yeah, when you can't even
remember every story, There's no way I remember seventy surgeries
and you can't even remember every surgery. That's how you
know you've had a lot of surgery. Reason, right, right, Aaron?

Speaker 9 (01:01:03):
Sure?

Speaker 2 (01:01:04):
And so here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna work
together with building Homes for Heroes, and our goal is
to repay you and it'll never actually be repayment for
what you gave to this country. And our goal is
to simply build a house. Building a house that is
easier for you to live in, easier for what you're
going through, easier for your family. And so what we're

(01:01:28):
going to do, because you told us your story and
because you served, is we're going to get with our
listeners and we're going to say this is Aaron's story.

she had on the makeup, the hair, all the things,
and then when she went to fly early in the morning,
rolled out.

Speaker 2 (01:06:24):
Of bed, funny that ain't you no makeup?

Speaker 7 (01:06:27):
And yeah, she got pulled aside by the TSA agent
and claiming you're not her.

Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
So I guess the move would be to do medium.
So if you're one way or the other, if you're
like going to prom, but you have to get to
the airport first, if they still know. And also if
you just wake up and no makeup, this is probably
just like medium makeup. Don't go full dolly. Have you
ever seen mine? No, it's it's so stupid. I have
I have a fool beard. Yeah, I mean it's like

(01:06:54):
James Harden goes down to the bottom of my neck
if James Harden was from the valley.

Speaker 4 (01:06:59):
It's a really big Every single time I go to
the airport, they do like three takes. Okay too, it's
a weird time to take a picture.

Speaker 2 (01:07:06):
So whenever you're doing something with your face or body
or hair that isn't common because you know you're gonna
get out of it. One time, Morgan number one died
her hair blonde for a group picture. Yeah, you bring
that up a lot, and I was like, then you
gotta stay blonde like she It was blonde, blonde. Usually
it's brown. So we do our show picture and then
she's blonde like Barbie blonde, and like a week later
it's brown again, and then it never.

Speaker 7 (01:07:28):
How long has she been not on the show and
doing your other stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:07:31):
I don't know, years years.

Speaker 7 (01:07:32):
Yeah, that but I can't, I can't, I.

Speaker 2 (01:07:34):
Can't let it.

Speaker 8 (01:07:35):
Well.

Speaker 7 (01:07:35):
Also, she's gonna point out that's literally the last time
we did a show photo shoot.

Speaker 2 (01:07:39):
Yeah, probably we did photos. She's all the time for
different things, pep and joy stuff. Groups.

Speaker 7 (01:07:43):
Oh, I mean like a that was like a real.

Speaker 2 (01:07:45):
Like yeah, mostly now they may pay for it myself
and I just give them mine. Oh that's why we
haven't taken one and one. Yeah, pay for your guys's crap.
I gotta pay for my own, all right. What else?

Speaker 7 (01:07:53):
For anybody that's dating, it takes nineteen minutes for someone
to know if they want a second date. And that's
top things people are looking for manners. Personality.

Speaker 2 (01:08:03):
I can tell you a manner is not the first
thing that's looked for by dudes. That may be the
first answer they give, but it ain't the first thing.

Speaker 7 (01:08:10):
Go ahead, Okay, what is the Ferston you look for?

Speaker 2 (01:08:13):
I have a wife and she's beautiful, and she's the
only person I've ever wanted to date a second time.

Speaker 7 (01:08:20):
Okay, personality comes in, Gus, listen to somebody that's friendly
and you can actually talk, Yeah, conversations.

Speaker 2 (01:08:26):
I mean, you don't want to go on a second
day with somebody just because they're hot. Like that definitely
helps if you're attracted to them. But if you're attracted
to them and you sit down and you're like, I
don't know what to say to you, Like we don't
have anything in common, you no personality, Like that's got
to be first.

Speaker 7 (01:08:40):
Oh, at what point for you? Because I assume maybe
when Caitlin Sains that's the only person you've gone out with,
she didn't know you were a radio personality, So she
didn't know you were a talker on air because like
the difference, you don't really talk that much off air.

Speaker 3 (01:08:55):
Yeah, but we had a mutual friend, her friend from Oklahoma.

Speaker 7 (01:08:59):
So she didn't have to figure out the two sends you.

Speaker 2 (01:09:01):
We weren't even trying to date. Oh, she just met
me as like a person. We didn't go on on
a date forever, months and months.

Speaker 7 (01:09:06):
Okay, But on the first date, are you talkative?

Speaker 2 (01:09:08):
Oh? Yeah, I'm on maybe let's go, right, but when
you do, you reveal the best representative let's go, when.

Speaker 7 (01:09:14):
Do you reveal that you dial it now with the
talking good question?

Speaker 3 (01:09:18):
About third of the way to the first date, I'm like, hey,
like this, you just shut down.

Speaker 2 (01:09:23):
It isn't going to go down. The power runs out.

Speaker 7 (01:09:26):
Yeah, go ahead, Well nineteen minutes, that's all you got
and you can figure it out. Kenny Chesney was talking
about how he keeps his mental health in check, and
there's three things that he's doing. Breath work, heat, so
I assume some sort of sweating sauna situation, and then
he no, ser no problem. In addition to the breath

(01:09:50):
and the heat, he is very much into the ice
bats like everybody else, but he says he keeps one
right outside his bus every day, pops in and it's
the best thing for him.

Speaker 2 (01:10:00):
Ice bath a little different than a cool plunge. I
guess ice bath you can get into if your body
is inflamed. A lot of inflammation you get in the
ice bath used to have, you know, the athletic actually
gett an ice bath that hated injuries. Ice bath inflammation
out the cool The thing that's the stupidest thing is
the stupidest thing.

Speaker 3 (01:10:17):
I well, yes, so it's so dumb. Here's why.

Speaker 2 (01:10:20):
First of all, there's not the scientific about it really
that tells you that it's doing anything for your body.
And trust me, I've done a lot of research on
this because i just love to flu prove people wrong.
So I was with Jake Oh and we were away
and he was like, get the cold plunge, and I'm like,
what's the purpose? It goes gonna make it feel better?
I'm like, why it'll go You ual accomplish something in
the morning, and I'm like, I accomplished plenty all day.
I'm good.

Speaker 3 (01:10:38):
He's like, oh, you'll just feel like you're a better person.
You'd be like whoa.

Speaker 2 (01:10:41):
And so I'm like, okay, fine, whatever, And so knocks
on my door like six thirty in the morning, and
we got to go in the morning, I'd rather slept in.
Why can't we do the cold plunge at noon in
the morning though, really gets you going. And then it's like,
don't you feel good you accomplish that, And I'm like,
I know, I could accomplish that at three pm to
accomplished more sleep for me. And he's like, yah, but

(01:11:02):
it really get your engine going. I'm like, that's not scientific.
There's no engine.

Speaker 7 (01:11:06):
So the I had a doctor on my podcast, he's
super popular, doctor Mark Hynen, and he said, the top
two things if you could recommend to people for longevity
and hacking your body is two things and two things.

Speaker 2 (01:11:17):
That are very vague, longevity and hacking your body.

Speaker 7 (01:11:19):
Right, No, well he's talking. He likes to look at
your body.

Speaker 3 (01:11:22):
By the way, I'm body hacked, like you have.

Speaker 7 (01:11:24):
Your chronological age, but then also your biological age, like
you can change. He's like, you can get younger. And
the top two things I tell people, obviously besides you
know food and whatnot.

Speaker 2 (01:11:33):
Is fruit and whatnot. I'm going with whatnot?

Speaker 7 (01:11:35):
Well, no, these are the two things. Whatnot means like
obviously you you exercise, you eat certain things. But he
said heat through sauna and cold punch.

Speaker 2 (01:11:46):
And what's the benefit of the cold punch other than
saying I got up in the morning and accomplished a one.

Speaker 7 (01:11:52):
In your research, did it bring up that it stimulates
the vagus.

Speaker 2 (01:11:56):
Nerve, you know, not the Vegas nerve, not the Reno nerve,
not the Sacramento nerve. None of those cities in the West,
none of those nerves were affected.

Speaker 7 (01:12:03):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:12:03):
Yeah, our research is like ten articles, a couple of podcasts.
And I'm a doctor too, So that's a good doctor
on your podcast. Yeah, this doctor on your podcast. I'll
tell you a lot of stuff about the Vegas nerves
well known. Yeah, of letters, give me letters. Let me
tell you about letter A. Yeah, come on, letter e E,
letter I I. That's all I do is battle sounds. Anyway,

(01:12:28):
go plenty of stupid. All right, what is that it?

Speaker 7 (01:12:31):
Maybe that's my pile.

Speaker 3 (01:12:32):
That was Amy's pile of stories.

Speaker 2 (01:12:35):
It's time for the good news. Bobby Lucas Smith is
five year old in Wisconsin. He has turned a community
service project into something he does all the time. Now.
He's pledged a craft a handmade birthday card for every
kid in a small town that is in central Wisconsin.
Now his mom talks about it, says, well, he was

(01:12:56):
doing some community service hours, not because he was in trouble,
which just happened to let's be honest, some of our friends,
but because he just wanted to do something for the
town and he was gonna get like bonus points at
school as well. But he found that by giving back
it made him feel better. And so that's what he does,
is he does these birthday cards, makes all of them

(01:13:18):
personalized to each kid he gives it to, and he's like,
if this is my little way of doing it, then
I'm effecting the world in a positive way.

Speaker 3 (01:13:25):
Again, he's only five years old.

Speaker 2 (01:13:26):
Wow, it's amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:13:27):
He's not playing video games in the free time.

Speaker 2 (01:13:29):
That's what my five year old dude, he's not.

Speaker 3 (01:13:31):
I don't know what else they do.

Speaker 2 (01:13:32):
Nothing to fight with a brother that thought. He's not
doing He's thinking about others. And this is the kind
of kid that this growth birthday cards grows into it
B than C thended this is what changes the world.
Five years old, Lucas Smith. If you're listening, body, we
appreciate that. That's what it's all about. That was telling
me something good. Here's a voicemail from Matt in Lexington, Kentucky.

(01:13:56):
I was calling for some advice. I'm recently engaged and
we are trying to come up with a guest list,
and I was just wondering, is.

Speaker 13 (01:14:04):
It okay to invite your coworkers or should you invite
co workers?

Speaker 3 (01:14:10):
Any advice would to help?

Speaker 2 (01:14:11):
Thanks, great question. I'll say what I always say. First
of all, you don't have to do anything you don't
want to do on your wedding. There's something to make
full pressure to do, but you don't have to do anything.
You don't have to invite the co workers you're not
close to, even on this show. Whenever I had my wedding,
I think everybody was invited, but like Morgan didn't have
a boyfriend, so she didn't get a plus one, like

(01:14:31):
Abby didn't get a plus one, So all the rules
aren't the same. We had the role of with co workers,
especially if you're part of the show, cause well work
pretty closely together. Everybody was invited, but if you didn't
have a significant person, you didn't get to bring somebody.
But that was our rule that we made up for it.
I didn't invite co workers, like outside of our group. Yeah,
I mean, I'll give a crap out ourselves people, because

(01:14:52):
I don't know them, so I don't feel the need
to bring them into the wedding.

Speaker 4 (01:14:56):
What was the priority order of like when you made
your list, family and then like friends, maybe to.

Speaker 2 (01:15:02):
Her with me a lottery system, Oh, I just keeping
close to I didn't have a lot of family to
invite anyway, but we had a number. We built to
that number, and then we had a bunch that we
were like, this is borderline, and then we had to
go through and yeah, so we made our first sure

(01:15:24):
list and then we had a whole list of people
that we were still like, okay, should we invite them?

Speaker 3 (01:15:28):
Should we not?

Speaker 2 (01:15:29):
But we only can invite like half of that group
that was in that list. And then we had a
couple that didn't make it, but other people backed out,
so then they got the invite and they moved up
into the list. Yeah, yeah, is that any of us?

Speaker 7 (01:15:43):
I just left because I was thinking back because working
in radio, some who's you know, people don't have their
real name, and I remember Caitlin having to tell you
like no, no, no, no, no, I need their real name.

Speaker 2 (01:15:54):
No name's Gator, Like his name's Gator. Put that on
the invitation. She was like between Gator and Lunchbox and
Slick Willie. It's like, I don't know who all these
people are, what are their names? But it was also
when I found out people's real names for the first
time too. I didn't know what Gator's real name was.

Speaker 14 (01:16:09):
Ye.

Speaker 2 (01:16:09):
But yeah, the whole wedding process, just make it about
you as much as possible. There were awkward people I
didn't invite that I have professional relationships with. But that
shows baby. And sometimes it'd be like, heyd you ever
get married? When's your wedding? That was a bad one.
Before the wedding. When's your wedding? Uh gotta go. Yeah,

(01:16:31):
all right, I do something. You know, you fall down,
So do what you want to do. That's the move.
If you don't want to buy people from work, do
not feel like you have to. All right, here's one more.
This is Casey from Tennessee Morning Studio.

Speaker 7 (01:16:42):
I just had a question for you guys, because I
need some advice.

Speaker 12 (01:16:45):
I just started recently, about two weeks ago, a part
time job that I really enjoyed.

Speaker 7 (01:16:50):
Before I was just a stay at home mom, and
I just got my take check today and I thought
it looked a little high, and I calculated it all
out and it looks like they paid me about ten
dollars more an hour.

Speaker 9 (01:17:01):
Than my actual rate is.

Speaker 12 (01:17:03):
And obviously this is a mistake, but obviously.

Speaker 8 (01:17:06):
The extra money is good.

Speaker 12 (01:17:08):
So I just wanted your guys' advice if I should
just reply to her and say, sorry, money's gone.

Speaker 7 (01:17:14):
Sorry, what do you guys think?

Speaker 2 (01:17:17):
I think they're gonna come for the money eventually. Anyway,
they'll make sure that they'll do some sort of all right,
let's look and see what we're supposed to be financially audit,
and they'll be off and they'll be like, well, well
let's check everybody's note.

Speaker 3 (01:17:27):
Uh, that's gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (01:17:28):
Probably why I would not be good at just keeping
the money is I want not always worry about that.
And then two you'd have to budget in your mind, well,
if they do come for it, then I'm gonna be
in the hole this next amounth and where am I
gonna get that? I just don't want that that money
gymnastics happening. So you would go ahead and tell them, yeah, yeah,
get ahead of It'll be like, hey, this was my check.

(01:17:50):
Was it supposed to be this high? Will you please check?
Because I don't want to have to pay this back.
It's not because I'm some great soul or some honest soul,
although I do feel like I'm pretty honest. I just
would not want to have to constantly worry and go
what if they do take it back?

Speaker 5 (01:18:00):
Now?

Speaker 2 (01:18:01):
Not gonna rebudget everything, cause you spend that money quick
and it's gone. Oh that money gone by whenever you sorry,
whenever you go buy something fun for you. So I
would email them for sure, because ninety five percent chances
are going to ask for it back. I know, lunchbox,
you don't debscribe to that.

Speaker 5 (01:18:14):
No, you got two options. You can quit the job
and just you know, for this move on, find another
part time job, like man, I scored one, or you
just hush hush, keep getting those paychecks and keep catching
that extra money, and then eventually six months down the road,
quit and walk away with all that money.

Speaker 2 (01:18:30):
You'll always quit and always quit before you get cut.

Speaker 5 (01:18:33):
Yeah, because she's there part time, man like she doesn't
want to. It's not like her her life is depending
on this money and she wants to be there, and
she plans to parlay this into a full time job.
She's doing this as a hobby. Yeah, but it's still
she makes they're going to come in the money. Yeah,
well guess what money's gone and I'm gone. Sorry, that's
not really how it works, but I like it.

Speaker 2 (01:18:50):
Like like that, you give your answer here Amy, anything
you're gonna say, I.

Speaker 7 (01:18:54):
Agree with you. The best thing to do is just
address it. We've had it happen here, hopefully that's like
you know what?

Speaker 2 (01:18:58):
Keep it?

Speaker 7 (01:18:59):
Yeah, say like check, say what do you have down
for my uh? Like maybe they were like, Hey, the
sho's pretty awesome, let's go ahead and pay.

Speaker 2 (01:19:06):
Her this, or you'd be like, hey, did you guys
pay me enough? Will you look at the check?

Speaker 5 (01:19:10):
No, because then they're gonna be like, oh, we paid
you too much, don't It's okay too though, don't draw
any attention to that.

Speaker 7 (01:19:14):
Okay, no, no, no, they'll this could help you get
a raise faster.

Speaker 3 (01:19:18):
Well that ain't try it.

Speaker 2 (01:19:19):
Okay, Let's go over and do the morning corny, The
morning corny?

Speaker 7 (01:19:25):
What did the Dalmatians say after dinner?

Speaker 3 (01:19:28):
What the Dalmatian say after dinner?

Speaker 7 (01:19:29):
What hit the spot?

Speaker 2 (01:19:35):
That was the morning corny?

Speaker 3 (01:19:39):
I'm told Lunchboks went and.

Speaker 2 (01:19:42):
Waited in the bathroom for Adam Durrat some counting crows
when you because Adam Dorrits walked in and lunchboxes in
their ping and just he just lingered. He loves doing that.
So his new goal is to wash his hands as
many celebrities as possible. Yeah, what what do you mean
wash your hands though, like at the same time, like
share that small sink.

Speaker 5 (01:19:59):
Yeah, we have one sink in the men's bathroom and
has one faucet, and so when they're washing your hands,
you have to go in for the hand washed at
the same time, so you can say that you washed
your hands with blank I did it with Keith Urban.
The water dripped from his hands to my hands, my
hands to his hands, and it was like, wow, it
was something you guys. I didn't even think about it.

(01:20:20):
Eddie told on me and it was like, man, this
is something that's pretty cool. Not a lot of people
like a conversation pieces, yes, like at a party, like,
oh you ever many celebrities? Well, actually I washed my
hands with something you know what?

Speaker 3 (01:20:31):
Yeah, what parties are you going to? By the way,
and I go some parties.

Speaker 2 (01:20:35):
So who have you so far? Who do you have
on your list?

Speaker 9 (01:20:37):
Keith?

Speaker 5 (01:20:38):
And now Adam Durantz. Those are the only two. And
what happened is I was in there at the urinal.
There's two urinals. There's one on the right and one
of the left closer, and I was on the left one.
I was, you know, using it, and all of a
sudden he comes in and I'm already at the end
of my my stream. So I'm like, huh, i'ma have
to linger here for a minute because if I go now,
I'm not gonna be able to use the sink with him.

(01:20:58):
So I just kind of stood there like I was
still going to the bathroom. He got done, he goes
over and starts washing his hands. I was like, I'm
going in and I stuck my hands in there, and
he goes interesting, and then he took the paper towel
and walked out. There was no conversation, there was no
ye conduct. He just said interesting, one word, paper towel
and out. And I was like, I did it.

Speaker 2 (01:21:20):
I did it.

Speaker 5 (01:21:21):
I dripped water onto Adam Durris's hands.

Speaker 2 (01:21:24):
I was on top on bottom last time.

Speaker 5 (01:21:26):
He was pretty much pulling out ready to go, and
I had to force my way in and get my
hands in there and make sure I drip some water
on them.

Speaker 2 (01:21:33):
So it was pretty awesome, I feel. So, how do
you plan to continue this? Because it seems like you've
just been in there luckily at the right time.

Speaker 5 (01:21:41):
Right, And that's what Sometimes these artists come and they
don't even use our bathroom. So I always go after
the interview because I assume that after the interview is
when they're gonna have to go too.

Speaker 2 (01:21:50):
So that's why you lay so quickly.

Speaker 5 (01:21:51):
Yes, I got to get in a position. I gotta
go get in the air. And sometimes I go in
the stall and sit and wait, and sometimes I just
stand at the urinal and I don't even pee.

Speaker 2 (01:21:59):
You imagine if he's in the stall and you're washing
your hands and he comes out and washes.

Speaker 5 (01:22:05):
I haven't had a stall game yet, Like I haven't
had no stall takers. Like every time I've been in
the stall, no one comes in, and the urinal has
been the golden goose.

Speaker 2 (01:22:13):
Hey Scooma, Steve, what do you think about this? Is
it so funny that we don't care? Or is it creepy?
And we should? We can't only stop him from the
bathroom though, that's the thing. We can't stop that.

Speaker 10 (01:22:22):
But now it's on the air, and I'm fearful of
guests not wanting to come here anymore, just.

Speaker 2 (01:22:27):
Bombarded in the bathroom.

Speaker 7 (01:22:28):
It is funny.

Speaker 10 (01:22:29):
I think we should continue to do it, just because
it's a great funny thing for the show. But I
worry that this could be a problem long term.

Speaker 5 (01:22:33):
That sink is so small, and the fact that there's
only got one little head. Yeah, and it only has
cold water. There's no hot water. It's just it just
turns on. There's no turn into cold or hot. You
just stick your hands under it. Boom and counting crows.
The guy said, interesting, how's it? Nothing else? No, no
back and forth though, like what are you doing though?
Like is there something some reason you're doing that?

Speaker 2 (01:22:55):
No?

Speaker 5 (01:22:55):
Just interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:22:56):
He's speechless and he grabbed the guy who says things
for a living speech has nothing to say.

Speaker 3 (01:23:01):
Okay, we can't tell him not to go to the bathroom.

Speaker 5 (01:23:05):
Hey, these hands, me and Keith and now me and Adam.

Speaker 2 (01:23:08):
Anybody on the list you're looking forward to getting a
getting a hold of you have any goals?

Speaker 5 (01:23:12):
I mean, who's your ultimate hand washing? Oh I haven't
even thought about that. Uh, probably Garth Brooks. He's the
biggest of all time. Hey, if we ever get Garth
Brooks back in here, I will definitely post it up
in the bathroom.

Speaker 2 (01:23:24):
He never hear it comes to the studio for the
minute Garth gets here, he just waits in the bathroom
for the entire show.

Speaker 3 (01:23:28):
You we talked about al Pacino last week.

Speaker 2 (01:23:33):
He's in his eighties having a baby, and now he
wants a DNA test because he's like, I don't know
if that's my kid. Well, so al Pacino apparently did
not want another kid and asked for a prenatal DNA
test to prove that it was his kid. A source
said that the mom to be and him aren't even
in a relationship. Quote it's a mess. A source claims

(01:23:53):
that nor her her name is nor A Falla, said Hey,
I can't conceive because of a thighb would problem. I
never believe that rich guys. A source says she knew
out and want to have more kids. They have no relationship.
It's a mess. Supposedly, nor weaseled her way into Al's
life before the pandemic by becoming close to his twenty

(01:24:15):
two year old daughter. Yeah that's a move, huh. Be
friends with your daughter? Be friends with a daughter.

Speaker 3 (01:24:21):
That's how you get to meet the dad, the famous dad.

Speaker 2 (01:24:23):
Yeah, I guess. So the relationship was basically over for
more than a year when she re established contact and
got pregnant. What does that mean? So they did have
a relationship, well yeah, and so yeah, but then that happened,
she went away, then came back and got pregnant. She
re established contact, meaning they got it on. Ye say

(01:24:46):
that it's randomly got That's what that means. Yeah, re
established contact and he's hooked up. On the flip side,
Robert de Niro says that being a father again feels great. Okay, yeah,
Robert de Niro, Okay, that's the other one. But they're
both in the story. Robert de Niro says, being a
father again feels great, and he's very happy for al Pacino.
Al Pacino's one. See don't they feel like the same person? Yeah, yeah,

(01:25:07):
now I feel like and they're also both really old
having kids with the young girls. But de Niro I
think did it on purpose and he had a kid
at yes, and Paccino's like, what's he doing? So I
don't know what a pre I know what it is
or how they do a prenatal DNA test and why
would more people not have that done if you're confused

(01:25:28):
on who it is instead of waiting for nine months
because lunch? Fuck?

Speaker 3 (01:25:30):
Did that happened one of your friends?

Speaker 6 (01:25:32):
Uh?

Speaker 5 (01:25:32):
Yeah, one of my buddies. He uh, gotta go pregnant.
And she came to is that I'm pregnant and he
was like, man, I don't know if it's my kid.
So when the baby was born, he had me buy
a DNA test and he swabbed the baby, mailed it
and the results came to my house and I was like, hey, dude,
I got him. You can come by and pick him up.
He goes, no, go ahead and open him.

Speaker 2 (01:25:50):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:25:50):
I was like, what he wanted you to open him?

Speaker 2 (01:25:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:25:53):
I was about to go in and get a haircut
and I was like, man, I was like, what if
it's not yours. He goes, well, I'm gonna come pick
you up and you're gonna help me move my stuff.
And I was like, okay.

Speaker 3 (01:26:02):
Was it in an envelope standard enlope?

Speaker 5 (01:26:08):
And I was like, oh boy. And I opened it
up and it's like a packet and it's like the
first thing is it tells you explains the test and everything,
second page and flip it to you and says the
results of the DNA test are you are ninety nine
point nine percent?

Speaker 2 (01:26:21):
The father and what was his well, it depends what
was his reaction. He was like, all right, good he
wanted it to be his.

Speaker 5 (01:26:30):
I don't know if he wanted it to be his
or if he was just more like, Okay, now we
deal with it, you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:26:39):
Like it was, I was.

Speaker 5 (01:26:42):
Like for the kid, and I was like, but what
what if it's not. Aren't you guys in love? And
he's like, we'll figure that out. And I was just like, okay,
I don't know. I don't understand this. But it was cool.

Speaker 3 (01:26:52):
Like the haircut go after that?

Speaker 5 (01:26:55):
Oh man, the haircut, I was good. It was a
little high on the you know, they went a little
high on the top, but it looked pretty goo. The
whole time, I was just there going, man, I have
these DNA results. That's crazy. I just had to reveal
DNA results to my buddy.

Speaker 2 (01:27:06):
You were Mari dude, for a minute, You're a Makovich.

Speaker 5 (01:27:08):
That's right.

Speaker 7 (01:27:09):
I was like, and you are.

Speaker 5 (01:27:12):
She was like, I told you, I told you.

Speaker 2 (01:27:14):
We were talking on Friday, show about elevators and the
button you push that closes the door. You push it
make the door close. Yeah, you said it's not It
doesn't work.

Speaker 3 (01:27:21):
It doesn't work.

Speaker 2 (01:27:21):
It's so weird.

Speaker 3 (01:27:22):
It's purely not a thing.

Speaker 2 (01:27:23):
You can't make it close earlier than it is time
to close anyway, So as much as you push that
button doesn't work. And then we started talking about, you know,
if you were ever on an elevator with anybody famous randomly,
I'll go first. I got an elevator with the Prince
once Prince the Saint Purple Rain, Purple Prince. I thought
you were like saying, Prince of Wales or something, Prince
that even cooler. Prince sent him in some bodyguards and

(01:27:43):
he was tiny, and it was an accident. I was
at a like a club bar type outdoor venue in
Austin and there was Prince. Did you talk to him?

Speaker 12 (01:27:50):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:27:51):
Nothing?

Speaker 9 (01:27:52):
What up?

Speaker 2 (01:27:52):
No? I wouldn't talk to anybody anyway, And then I
wouldn't go and talk to Prince either, because he didn't
look like he wanted to be talked to, and he
had bodyguards with him. Did you stare at him?

Speaker 9 (01:28:01):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:28:01):
I saw who it was and I was like oh
my god. And so I kind of looked to the
side and try but only have one good eye, remember,
so I had to put them on the left side
of me. So I moved over and then kind of
looked that way. But I didn't want to look too
much either. But mine is prince. So anybody ever been
on an elevator with anybody cool? Randomly lunchbox?

Speaker 5 (01:28:18):
Oh yeah, I was on the elevator with John Legend
and Chrissy Teagan at Celebrity Family Feud. I was just
walking backstage and I saw them get on the elevator.
I was like, I might as well go up too.

Speaker 2 (01:28:27):
Oh so you only got on the elevator.

Speaker 5 (01:28:29):
Only got on the elevator because they went on the elevator.
I was like, I might as well jump on.

Speaker 2 (01:28:32):
And that's not random, Well that is random. Randomly saw
them somewhere and then followed them into an elevator. It
was you made it happen.

Speaker 5 (01:28:40):
Yeah, I didn't make it happen. I was like, I'm
not missing this opportunity to be in an enclosed space
with Chrissy Tagan and John Legend. How awesome did you
talk to them? I was just like, how's it going?
And they were just like, ah, they were.

Speaker 3 (01:28:49):
I think they were.

Speaker 2 (01:28:52):
They're having fun, drink o U lesseners, can't see what
you're doing with their your hand.

Speaker 7 (01:28:55):
I know.

Speaker 5 (01:28:55):
I didn't know if I should say that they were
drinking allegedly allegedly. I think they were.

Speaker 3 (01:28:59):
They were good, give you alcohol before that show, because
they want you to be funny.

Speaker 7 (01:29:02):
Why didn't they give us alcohol?

Speaker 3 (01:29:04):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:29:06):
Maybe they knew we were gonna amy anybody.

Speaker 7 (01:29:09):
Halsey.

Speaker 3 (01:29:10):
Yeah, I think I was with you that time you were.

Speaker 7 (01:29:12):
She was wearing a raincoat and I think that's it
and definitely smelled like things.

Speaker 2 (01:29:20):
Allegedly, Oh here we go, Okay. I don't know if
I should say that, Eddie.

Speaker 12 (01:29:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:29:25):
Tony Danza in Vegas, I was with my family, like
my parents were in the elevator and he was in there,
and I was like, Tony, my man.

Speaker 2 (01:29:32):
I started talking to him and I don't remember this,
but my mom to this day says I gave him
a hug. I don't remember that. Hey, i'd been allegedly.
Let's go to Kaylee in Charleston, South Carolina. Kaylee, what's
going on?

Speaker 7 (01:29:48):
Hey?

Speaker 2 (01:29:49):
Are you pretty good?

Speaker 3 (01:29:50):
So tell me your elevator story.

Speaker 8 (01:29:53):
So, I, my sister and I had just gotten to
Vegas and we had the button and we're waiting to
go to our room and the door open and Jason
Alvin was there all by himself. So he got off
and took a picture with us and have the door
for us while we all took our picture and stuff,
and then he went on his way.

Speaker 3 (01:30:12):
Was he were into a ball cap and I'm assuming
not his stage cowboy hat.

Speaker 8 (01:30:18):
No, I think he was having to rehearsal for ACMs
and he was all by himself. It was like right
when his divorce stuff happened.

Speaker 2 (01:30:25):
So it's hard to see Jason in public and know
it's Jason a lot of the time because he again,
Jason walks around wears a ball cap and it's pretty normal.
The only way you can really spot him is the
ear rings. Otherwise he changes his stage attire. He can
live almost a normal life. So that's why I was
asking about the cowboy hat.

Speaker 7 (01:30:44):
I think to cut off shirts a lot on stage. No,
just like when hanging out when I see him, some
videos pop up on Instagram, like every time he's hanging out,
and he likes to cut those sleeves off.

Speaker 2 (01:30:54):
I felt that I don't have sleeves on half my shirts.
Pry for different reasons. He has a lot of cool tattoos.
I just I don't like to be restricted, you know.
Thank you, Kayley, Hope you're good, have a good day.

Speaker 8 (01:31:06):
Yes, thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:31:08):
See later. Let's go to Wendy in North Carolina. Wendy,
you're on the Bobby Bone Show. What's going on?

Speaker 9 (01:31:14):
Hey?

Speaker 12 (01:31:15):
How are you doing?

Speaker 2 (01:31:15):
Pretty good? What's your story?

Speaker 12 (01:31:18):
Okay, this is back when Shanon Tatum made an appearance
in Greensboro, you know, North Carolina. He was like that,
he actually went to the mall, like people knew he
was there, but nobody ever really saw him. Well, I
was running into the mall to return to merchandise, and
I was like in the bummyes outfit you could ever
imagine light leg and baggy T shirt, like flip flops,

(01:31:38):
just running in and running out, mess your hairbun whatever.
I got on the elevator leaving, and when I did,
I've seen like two guys that probably were protaking to somebody,
and they were coming in and he was behind him,
had his ball cap on and he kind of just
glanced over. I had like one of the Magic MIC's
shirts on.

Speaker 2 (01:31:54):
The ex.

Speaker 12 (01:31:57):
And he noticed you looked over. He said, so you're
a fan. I'm like yeah, and I'm like I didn't
know what to say. I'm like cringing, and I was like,
but I'm sorry. I just looked so terrible and he said, well,
look at me. I'm bummy. I was like, no, you
look good in anything. I said, or nothing, And I said,
believe well you.

Speaker 2 (01:32:11):
Said that, you said it, or nothing yet.

Speaker 3 (01:32:18):
What was his reaction?

Speaker 12 (01:32:19):
He just came out yeah, yeah. But he was really
nice about it. I mean, he was really cool about it.
He's like, hey, do you want me to sign your shirt?
He said, it's you know, hey, you can keep this.
You didn't come out the mall with anything. You had
to exchange it and you didn't get what you wanted.
He said, you want me to sign it, and he
went in and signed it for me, and I got
to go out the elevated with him and walk out
to the car. When we got outside, he took a
picture with me and he said, he said nice. I

(01:32:40):
got to me. He said, I'm glad your fans. So
he was really nice about it. I just couldn't believe
those words come out of my mouth?

Speaker 3 (01:32:45):
Also a life. Where's the line? Shouldn't I nothing?

Speaker 2 (01:32:50):
All right? One final thing, let's go Cat in Austin, Texas.

Speaker 3 (01:32:53):
Cat, you're on the Bobby Bone Show. What's going on?

Speaker 5 (01:32:56):
Hey?

Speaker 12 (01:32:56):
How are you all doing?

Speaker 2 (01:32:57):
Doing pretty good?

Speaker 3 (01:32:58):
What's your story?

Speaker 12 (01:33:00):
My store was I worked in Austin. I got the
elevator and it was John Travolta.

Speaker 14 (01:33:05):
Wow.

Speaker 8 (01:33:06):
And where I worked you could not call them by
their first name.

Speaker 12 (01:33:10):
So it was a very awkward quiet elevator ride because
in my mind, you know, this is back by ninety seven.
I was like, I'm not going to call him mister Jones.

Speaker 8 (01:33:18):
This is just embarrassing.

Speaker 2 (01:33:19):
I know who it is.

Speaker 12 (01:33:21):
So he just kind of smodeled at me and I
co modeled it here. But Sean the elevator or I did?
He stayed on, But yeah, I was on over John Travolta.

Speaker 3 (01:33:29):
It's pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (01:33:30):
You can call him mister Travolta though, mister Danny Zuko,
mister Zuko some of love and had me a blast.
I thank you, have a good day, Cat, Thank you too, Hi,
see you later. Thank you guys for hanging out. Let's
go over and do the news. Bobby's Amazon confirms a
new series of The Office is coming. What I thought

(01:33:53):
the same thing. I thought, what out of nowhere? But
the new version will be Australian. And there have been
thirteen different adaptations of the Office, so it is not
new that another country is doing their version of it.
So there's been The Office obviously, UK's where it started
two seasons. The UK had it right. They do two
seasons of every show then they're done for the most part,

(01:34:15):
and they do occasional comebacks. But America, we just beat
it to death and we're like just a tiny bit
of life in it. They milk it and it won't
be near as good, but we can still get people
to watch it for a minute and sell.

Speaker 3 (01:34:27):
Ads, let's do it.

Speaker 2 (01:34:28):
Yeah. I thought we're getting a little better at that
with some of these like HBO Max shows.

Speaker 7 (01:34:32):
Some I wishould we keep going.

Speaker 2 (01:34:34):
Yeah. So there's UK, American, there's India, Israel, Canada, Chile, France. Yeah,
but Australia will be having their version of the Office,
and the Michael Scott character will be a woman named
Felicity Ward. That's from news dot Com. Some Taylor Swift
fans wear a dull diaper so they don't miss a
song like I felt that. Yeah, I wouldn't have the

(01:34:55):
heart to pee on myself, but I like the passion.
I like that you're dedicated and whatever you gotta do
to stay dedicated, Like I felt that, like am my
bones for sure, but not for this. There's something to
be said for dedication. But this one fan on TikTok said, well,
I don't want them a single song, so I wear
an adult diaper, okay, And that's the case. And this

(01:35:16):
story is from barstool, And you know, I hate leaving
a movie to go to the bathroom. I will almost
rupture a bladder then have to walk out and pee
like I felt that, but I did. I don't think
I could just use the bathroom on myself.

Speaker 7 (01:35:29):
The some doctor I don't know or nurse just works
at the pelvic floor and a lot of women, and
she said holding he at concerts is one of the
worst things you can do for yourself. So this is
the diaper is actually a good thing.

Speaker 5 (01:35:40):
And because disgust, you're.

Speaker 2 (01:35:44):
Gonna smell like pe and that that's the best.

Speaker 3 (01:35:47):
That's the best option.

Speaker 7 (01:35:48):
There's another option too, but at least it's in a diaper,
which you know absorbs the odor because some people at
Harry Styles were just peing no diaper.

Speaker 2 (01:35:56):
I just smell my kids diver. Yeah no, no, no,
all right, moving on, Uh, power your shower by doing this.
If you want to start your morning with a lot
of energy, stand under warm water for a couple of minutes,
then turn down the temperature and get a blast of
cold water for a minute, then go back to warm.

Speaker 15 (01:36:11):
No, I'm good.

Speaker 2 (01:36:12):
Most importantly in your shower with freezing cold water because
it improves circulation, which jolts your mood. You'll also find
that during your workday, your hands and feet won't get
as cold. That's from a book called Alter Your Life
by Kathleen Hall. Warm cold, warm, cold. You would wake up,
Caitlin if you went to cold?

Speaker 3 (01:36:31):
Why could I be like?

Speaker 2 (01:36:31):
I hate I don't say cold showers.

Speaker 3 (01:36:34):
I don't like that.

Speaker 2 (01:36:35):
I like the room to be freezing cold because especially
when I sleep, because I like to have lots of
blankets on me, so I need to comfort. Even if
it's one hundred degrees, I could have a comfort on
top of me, but I like it to be cold outside,
warm underneath. And then only warm showers, hot showers, hot baths.
That's it only warm. Yeah, I don't like the cold
at all. So that's apparently, if you want to be

(01:36:56):
successful in life and make a lot of money, that's
what you need to do. Money has a lot to
do with friendships. This is from a book called Smart
Money Strategies. During the first ten years of being married,
a majority of the couple surveyed consistently choose to hang
out with other couples whose income.

Speaker 3 (01:37:10):
Mirrors their own.

Speaker 2 (01:37:12):
People who have the same amount of money to spend
on restaurants, vacations, entertainment naturally are able to spend time
with each other and have to worry that they're going
over or under or not maintaining the same lifestyle as
their friends, which could be seen as a good or
bad thing, depending who you are. It's also why famous
people tend to hang out with other famous people, because

(01:37:32):
they meet at events exclusive to famous people and they
have basically enough money to do the same stuff.

Speaker 7 (01:37:40):
Amy thoughts, Yeah, I see how that could happen. And
then just being aware and conscious of different relationships and knowing, like, hey,
if you think a friend may not be able to
do what you're doing, how can you think of something
that they could do. I just pay for it, invite
the moment for dinner.

Speaker 1 (01:37:55):
I like that.

Speaker 2 (01:37:56):
That's why we always hang out. It's like I'm like
enough to have money, so come on, I'll pay for
it and.

Speaker 3 (01:38:01):
Then that's it.

Speaker 7 (01:38:02):
Yeah, yeah, because, yeah, we don't want to lose friendships
because of.

Speaker 2 (01:38:05):
Money, right, what you do?

Speaker 5 (01:38:08):
Because I mean or I would.

Speaker 7 (01:38:09):
Want someone to think of me or yes, pay for me.
It depends. Like it's all different. And I got some
friends you make more than some friends make a way
more than you.

Speaker 3 (01:38:17):
Yeah, I think it's easier though you all come from
the same place.

Speaker 2 (01:38:21):
Yeah, Meaning if I'm with somebody who's like a rich
stock market family New Yorker and they've always had a
ton of money, that's weird to me, Like that's that's
like you don't even understand what it's like. I have
to spend money. You just always had money. But those
are trauma issues that I have to deal with. I do,
and I have to pay money to deal with them.

Speaker 7 (01:38:39):
Yes today, do you see though, Like you're the generation
that broke that for you, like your kids so far.

Speaker 3 (01:38:44):
Don't give me credit yet, Why you're gonna lose it all?

Speaker 2 (01:38:48):
Know?

Speaker 5 (01:38:49):
That would be impressed.

Speaker 2 (01:38:50):
Never know'd awesome. I'm telling you, I'm scared to death
of it.

Speaker 3 (01:38:53):
I'm scared to death of it.

Speaker 2 (01:38:55):
From Yahoo, A Kentucky man buys a five dollars lottery
ticket while camping and returns to his slight with a
bottle of champagne. Because he goes about a five dollar
grilling and chillin scratch off ticket. Want seventy five thousand dollars?
He purchased a winning ticket and then he went over
and he bought some champagne, took it back and was
like celebrate. They're like, why he goes? I don't want
senty five thousand dollars. That's awesome, that's pretty cool a
record holding. Oh I saw this story about the professor

(01:39:19):
who's also a scientist, and he was living underwater for
all that time. In that little it looked like a pumpkin,
but it was like some sort of like ball. Did
you guys see any picture of videos? Okay, So this
scientist claims that he's increased his lifespan by twenty percent
after living ninety three days underwater. Now, his name is
Joseph de Turrey. He's a retired naval officer. He's been
living inside a one hundred square foot pod at the

(01:39:40):
bottom of the Atlantic Ocean for ninety three days, researching
how a pressurized environment impacts the human body. Now he's
not living with the matt the mask, he's just isn't
like a ball. And then there's a little circle where
you can see the water out there. It's like a
little pod house, but it is under the water. And
so he was down there again for almost one hundred days.

(01:40:01):
He says now that when he looks at the different
like parts of his body, and he took all these tests,
he claims that one hit, a lot of his chromosomes
have deaged, which I guess is the same he's getting younger,
but that he has ten times more stem cells. He
has sixty six percent deep rim sleep every night, his

(01:40:23):
inflammatory markers have been cut in half, and his cholesterol
has dropped by seventy two points.

Speaker 9 (01:40:28):
What.

Speaker 3 (01:40:29):
I always take a long bath tonight.

Speaker 2 (01:40:31):
That's what I see. You can take a bath all night. Hey,
you heard about the scientists. But he's not wet. He's
just he's just under the water.

Speaker 3 (01:40:41):
Right, we all can't live the same life, Eddie.

Speaker 2 (01:40:44):
I'm just saying, you in the tub is not the
same thing as this guy.

Speaker 6 (01:40:46):
Do you know?

Speaker 7 (01:40:47):
It makes me think about Michael Jackson wanted to live
in or sleep in the hyperbaric chamber. But isn't that
kind of doing the same thing to.

Speaker 2 (01:40:53):
Your presturizing your body.

Speaker 3 (01:40:55):
Yeah, but hyperaric chamber, you can crawl out of it
and be right back in the real world.

Speaker 7 (01:40:57):
That is true, I know. But it's interesting too that
when we go down into the ocean, we d age,
and they say astronauts age more rapidly up in space.

Speaker 2 (01:41:07):
The health changes are going to pressure, which is similar
to the process in the hyper great chambers, which are
found to improve what flow, brain, metabolism, brain.

Speaker 3 (01:41:15):
You knew that you sent the story.

Speaker 7 (01:41:17):
I didn't know that about that.

Speaker 2 (01:41:18):
I didn't you acting like all right day.

Speaker 3 (01:41:20):
Day Amy, And I look over and I saw work
Amy sent the story.

Speaker 7 (01:41:24):
I did send the story, but I actually didn't read
that part.

Speaker 4 (01:41:26):
I just know it.

Speaker 7 (01:41:28):
I promise, I promise.

Speaker 2 (01:41:31):
It's regularly brought up, randomly tossed. The microdacul have a
great chamber thing in there. Okay, I can't know things,
well you can, but you acted like you knew it
out of nowhere When I was like, where do I
get this story from Abe. I like it.

Speaker 3 (01:41:45):
Thank you for sharing that.

Speaker 7 (01:41:46):
You're welcome.

Speaker 2 (01:41:48):
Spider Man Across the Spider Verse made one hundred and
twenty million dollars this weekend, which is a ton ton
ton of money. And so it's a cartoon, which Mike
details me. Don't call it a cartoon. What do I
call it, Mike? It's animation. And the difference is that
it's way more complex.

Speaker 15 (01:42:02):
It would be like somebody telling you, like you played
video games that are meant for kids, they're not for
kids anymore. Same thing with this movie. But I do
play video games that are meant for kids, but just
now adults like them too. Exactly same thing with the animation.
All right, would you watch it? You're like, yeah, I
loved it. I think it's one of the best comic
book movies of all time.

Speaker 2 (01:42:19):
Is it better than The Spider Man with the Humans
in it?

Speaker 1 (01:42:23):
This one?

Speaker 2 (01:42:24):
It's not.

Speaker 15 (01:42:24):
I think the first one is. The first one is
my favorite of all time, but this one's not as
good as that one.

Speaker 3 (01:42:29):
All right?

Speaker 2 (01:42:29):
Thank you LSU Football and Bels Air Conditioned Helmets for
the twenty twenty three season. Well that's cool. Yeah, I
just wonder like what can go wrong if all of
a sudden, somebody's like flopping around, You're like, oh, the
helmet wrote she's getting shocked. I don't kind of like there,
And how are they gonna cheat with this?

Speaker 9 (01:42:46):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:42:47):
And how can you hack it?

Speaker 6 (01:42:48):
Like?

Speaker 2 (01:42:48):
How can someone hack the helmet? I just start thinking
of all the things that can happen wrong here. But
if and by the way, shout out baton rouge, but
it gets real hot, but it gets real I love
I'm not gonna say I love LSU football because I'm
an Arkansas raised by fan, and actually I hope they
I'm gonna hope they win every game. It's not us,
but I'm gonna act like I like you a whole

(01:43:09):
lot the sports team. That being said, I'm jealous that
you guys have air condition helmets and apparently nobody else does.

Speaker 3 (01:43:14):
Did they create this?

Speaker 2 (01:43:15):
Did you know gatorade made by the Florida Gators. Yeah,
I think we've done a fun fact on that.

Speaker 3 (01:43:21):
I was kind of talking to the audience more than
you guys, because I knew you did.

Speaker 2 (01:43:24):
Okay, yeah, yeah, So several Tigers tried on the helmets
in a video that made the rounds and the helmet
will have a five hour lifespan before needing to be
charged and will last up to four years.

Speaker 3 (01:43:34):
So they have an air conditioned helmet. That is pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (01:43:38):
Eminem was the first choice for Paul Walker's role in
The Fast and the Furious. When it comes to action franchises,
they say the original cast was thought that Eminem, but
due to scheduling, he was unable to take the role,
and I went to Paul Walker. That is from CBR.
Disney World has flaming hot Cheetos cupcakes. That does sound
pretty good. It does sound pretty good Cheetos. I can't

(01:44:01):
say that I grab it first, but if it's there,
I'm reminded how good they are. I'm also reminded, I
don't know six hours later how good they aren't. Yeah,
right when you're sitting down. Yeah, but I think that
would probably be pretty good. Flaming hot Cheetos cuts like
sweet but spicy. Yeah, it's like a straight cupcake, but
in the middle of it, it's got the flaming hot Cheetos.

(01:44:22):
According to the Disney Food blog, the Cupcake Shop is
known for iconic cupcakes and the Iconic Cupcake ATM, which
you can go up to and put money and boop
and it just comes out.

Speaker 3 (01:44:32):
Disney Food blog.

Speaker 2 (01:44:33):
Hawaii Airport shuts down gates due to a bed bug infestation.

Speaker 3 (01:44:36):
Oh no, that's tough.

Speaker 2 (01:44:39):
Bedbugs were discovered in terminal too. I guess I'm surprised
that there aren't more bed bugs in airports because everybody
that comes through and everybody has luggage, and just the
bed bugs generally exist in places.

Speaker 7 (01:44:49):
Yeah, good point.

Speaker 1 (01:44:50):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:44:51):
It must have just been so bad.

Speaker 7 (01:44:53):
Maybe they don't travel.

Speaker 2 (01:44:54):
Well, bed bug, they don't have a passport or what
they say.

Speaker 5 (01:44:58):
Not to put your suitcase on the bed because that's
where you get.

Speaker 3 (01:45:01):
Them tickets in the bed anyway, that's disgusting.

Speaker 2 (01:45:03):
Case. It's been everywhere. Yeah, you put on the bed
and then you unload it load. You never put your
suitcase to your bed bugs for this, cause that's disgusting.
Not to do it anyway, That's what I'm talking to you, guys.
Your suitcase has been sent through the ringer, it's been
up in the little top the overhead compartment, it's been rolled,
it's been dragged, and you just gonna throw it on
your bed where you sleep. Well, the bed's like almost
eye level it's perfect and it's right in the.

Speaker 5 (01:45:24):
Middle of the room.

Speaker 3 (01:45:24):
But that's why they have that thing, the wood thing
that unfolds.

Speaker 5 (01:45:27):
That's what I'm and you put your that's where you
throw your dirty close.

Speaker 2 (01:45:31):
You don't lose them, Okay you can.

Speaker 3 (01:45:33):
Oh, that's disgusting that you guys do that.

Speaker 7 (01:45:35):
They're a reminder right now as to why you don't
touch the top of the comforter.

Speaker 2 (01:45:39):
Bedbugs were discovered in terminal to Hawaii's Daniel kay Annoy International.
The presence of gross insects was first reported earlier this week.
Then a Southwest Airlines manager confirmed the presence of bedbugs
the next day. Gates E, five, six and seven were
shut down and they did deep cleaning. My guess is
there's no way they would just only be in those
three five sixty seven. Yeah, they got They've got on

(01:46:00):
to other gates. I would assume they know the place
they want to go. You know, they don't travel well.
Amy Travel Pulse had that story and one more story
for you. The script for The Flash Too has already
been completed. The Flash, which is a movie that isn't
even out yet because that June sixteenth, It has Ezra
Miller didn't you get a bunch of trouble movie Mike
like we like he?

Speaker 3 (01:46:19):
They said he was like they had women in a
cult or something.

Speaker 2 (01:46:22):
Yeah, so there may not be another one. He may
not be in it. Do you remember what they said
about this guy?

Speaker 15 (01:46:27):
I don't remember the specific time. I don't want to
sa anything wrong. Must they stuff wrong?

Speaker 14 (01:46:30):
All? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:46:33):
NPR is always listening, ready to re correct her.

Speaker 3 (01:46:36):
So yeah, Variety had the story there.

Speaker 2 (01:46:39):
But I bring this up because Scuba Steve, I've given
you fifteen minutes a day during the show to go
work on your script. Yes, to be fair, this is
not the best environment for me to relax and thinks.

Speaker 3 (01:46:49):
It doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (01:46:49):
It's always an excuse, but I have I have an answer.

Speaker 10 (01:46:52):
So this weekend I have carved out time to work
with my writing partner to work on this project.

Speaker 2 (01:46:57):
But you're depending on somebody else and if they can'tcel,
you're not doing it. No, No, this this is my
guys for like fifteen plus years. Okay, still though, you're
so you're saying you're not gonna take allotted fifteen minutes
to walk to my office and work on the script
that you've been waiting ten years to do, but you
haven't found time for it. If I feel inspired during okay.

Speaker 3 (01:47:13):
It's all excuses.

Speaker 2 (01:47:14):
I'm done. It's all excuses.

Speaker 10 (01:47:15):
The problem is is this is not a relaxing environment
for me to sit to be relaxed, because there's stress
here for my job as far as getting things done
and making sure things are its supposed to be and
dealing with personnel and YadA dada, YadA. I would like
to be in a space where I can creatively relax
and focus on it.

Speaker 2 (01:47:30):
And this is not for it.

Speaker 10 (01:47:32):
I mean, think about it like if I can't do
you like, hey, Bobby Midshaw, I want you to stop down.

Speaker 2 (01:47:36):
If that's the only time I had it, I wouldn't
make an excuse es to I have fifteen minutes. I'm
gonna get a much. I'm gonna squeze as much from
the turnip that I possibly can. But I took your
motivation and I put it to what works best for motivations.
Bull crap. Discipline is where it's at. Motivation means nothing
in life. You can be motivated all day long to
do stuff. I'm so motivated. Motivation gas runs out super quick.
You got to you gotta fimble full of gas. When
you're motivated, you're disciplined, and you're doing stuff. When you're

(01:47:58):
not motivated, you're doing stuff whenever it doesn't feel good
to do it. That's when you know that you're on
the track to get something done. And al's all I
hear from you is that, Eh, it's a I don't
feel great. But timmy hurts a good earache, oh my
toe ist sore. He's dealing with personalities. It's constantly something,
so you don't really want to do it. My thought

(01:48:19):
is you're afraid to fail, and you're gonna write it,
and you know that there's a chance that nobody takes it,
and you spent ten years wondering about it. Now it
doesn't work, and so you're like, dang, I did it.
It didn't work, so I'm a loser. I say.

Speaker 3 (01:48:30):
That's where I say it wrong.

Speaker 10 (01:48:30):
I've I've quit jobs multiple times and moved across the
country multiple times and taking chances. So that's in me,
it's in my DNA to make this happen. You're right,
it does sound like excuse excuses. It does sound like
a little weenie. It does sound like I'm creating a
bunch of crap.

Speaker 2 (01:48:43):
For listeners. I'm not giving him a hard time out
of nowhere. We've had this conversation like four times. Yeah,
and how long have you had this idea? For ten years?
And why haven't you done it?

Speaker 10 (01:48:51):
Mostly because the time in life gets in the way. Kids, family, job, work.

Speaker 3 (01:48:54):
Yeah, that's a good life. Kids, everybody. Yes, the oldest
is five.

Speaker 2 (01:48:58):
I see where're going now? Yeah, they had five whole
years we was job and work in life.

Speaker 3 (01:49:04):
I have to go, but I'm just exhausted of your whining.

Speaker 2 (01:49:07):
So I'm going to Scooba.

Speaker 1 (01:49:10):
Do it now.

Speaker 3 (01:49:11):
It's okay. He wants wants wait till the weather's right.

Speaker 2 (01:49:14):
What's the person else that he's been doing?

Speaker 12 (01:49:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:49:18):
I love you, but I know and I appreciate your
honesty and being in front of me. Yeah, guys, he
had to prosected me. You got to think of all
the things that he has going on, and that's.

Speaker 4 (01:49:25):
Perfect time to work on it while you're just sitting healing. No,
it ain't right for him, though it was for me.

Speaker 2 (01:49:31):
Air pressure was the barometer, the humidity wasn't exactly all right.
Thank you. That's the news.

Speaker 5 (01:49:37):
Bobby's story.

Speaker 2 (01:49:41):
This story has got to be true and can't be
a lie at all. A nineteen year old pregnant virgin
claimed she was impregnated by Evil Spirit. Okay, I believe
that's a good one for it sounds to me if
I'm just speculating. Unless his name is Evil Spirit, she

(01:50:08):
probably accidentally knocked up and then now.

Speaker 3 (01:50:09):
She's just like, what do I say to get into this?

Speaker 2 (01:50:12):
She sparked controversy after telling media that she believed she
was impregnanted by a supernatural force. The unnamed woman said
that after experiencing strange dreams and feeling supernatural presences in
her room, she started missing a period and their mother
down to colleges for a checkup. That's when the nineteen
year old version, who claims to have never hooked up
with a dude, found out she was pregnant.

Speaker 3 (01:50:36):
There can't be anyone that believes this.

Speaker 5 (01:50:38):
Her parents.

Speaker 2 (01:50:41):
Got to be like, you're lying, Who was it?

Speaker 7 (01:50:44):
Well, I mean, just DNA test, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:50:46):
How do you DNA test? Satan? Is he in the database?

Speaker 9 (01:50:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:50:51):
Is he twenty three and meters?

Speaker 2 (01:50:52):
We got a little someone on him to know what's up.
She acknowledged that her version of events is hard to believe. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
not hard. We just don't believe it, and she admits
that she doesn't fully understand how she got pregnant either.
I do. What happens is you see a guy that
you like, you hit it off. You're gonna go the

(01:51:12):
whole thing. Yeah, I was going to, but for.

Speaker 3 (01:51:14):
Time purposes, I will not. But the boy that is
that is quite the story. Like she went for it.

Speaker 7 (01:51:18):
Huh go why go evil?

Speaker 2 (01:51:20):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:51:22):
You want to say it like Casper the friendly ghost,
like a friendly spirit.

Speaker 2 (01:51:26):
No, I would go full If I want to go
with a lie, I'm going as crazy of a lie
I could possibly tell.

Speaker 3 (01:51:30):
I'm going full evil.

Speaker 2 (01:51:31):
I was taking over my eyes, old the back of
my head or aliens like that's another one. All I
remember is I woke up and I couldn't move. My
body was paralyzed, and I was surrounded by six different
small creatures where their heads were like oblong shaped, and
I remember fading in and out as one of them said,
we shall do this now. And the next thing I know,
I woke up and it all felt like a dream,

(01:51:53):
but it also felt real. And then I went to
the doctor and they told me I was pregnant, and
I think it's probably from that night. I just don't
know even which one of them went what I would
go hard hard.

Speaker 6 (01:52:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:52:04):
So here's a quote, this one guy taking her side.
You tell the truth. I've heard of other cases like this.

Speaker 2 (01:52:09):
Oh yeah, he's the dad. Check them, check them. That's funny.
The last thing her father and mother should do is
kick her out of the family home. The nine year
old girl is not the first to claim she'd been
impregnant by a supernatural force. Back in twenty twenty one,
there was a woman who claimed a gust of wind
made her pregnant. That's that's ballsy, august of wind. Yeah. Yeah,

(01:52:30):
that's a tough win. Because augusta win, you'd have to
be naked. I don't even think that would work. It won't,
it won't work. But you would have to even be
naked for the idea of that too. I'm not even
gonna say to be ya, I I wouldn't humor that
at all. I'll be like, it's not true. But it's
like you're getting a hot tub, you remember that thing

(01:52:52):
that's not gonna happen, but at least that you're naked.
But that's also not gonna happen. But augusta win.

Speaker 7 (01:52:59):
I mean, you don't have to get pregnant if you're
making it up, does it have to be the actual
way you get pregnant or can you just like inhale
something That's.

Speaker 12 (01:53:07):
What she did.

Speaker 2 (01:53:07):
But yeah, oh yeah, that is a wild story. Weekends, Amy,
How's weekend?

Speaker 7 (01:53:16):
It was really good. I did like a lot of
uh packing, organizing. The kids move into their dad's house today.
Well everybody kind of does, so we have.

Speaker 2 (01:53:27):
Like a lot that's was just being the kids are
moving out of your house.

Speaker 7 (01:53:31):
No, they'll be at my house one week on, in
his house one week off. But we've been mostly moving
back and forth. We had an apartment and we were
moving and now we've got it at the house. So
we were just kind of getting everything, like the kids
new beds, they need kind of double of some things
so they don't have to like all their toiletries and
so just getting everything.

Speaker 2 (01:53:52):
So you're gonna have a week without kids, not oh yeah,
there's some oats. They're gonna be so boys.

Speaker 7 (01:54:00):
Yeah, but I've you realize I've had that, but just
at an apartment. Like we've been doing this for a
while now, so in my life's very much the same.

Speaker 2 (01:54:10):
You're gonna.

Speaker 7 (01:54:11):
In fact, I've had to like work on not isolating
myself too much because I can go for several days
without really talking anybody. I went to lunch with some
girlfriends and I even told them like, hey, I need
toy all to hold me accountable for this, because I
don't want to just like.

Speaker 3 (01:54:25):
A welfare check stay home.

Speaker 2 (01:54:27):
Amy good.

Speaker 7 (01:54:29):
Yeah, so I kind of even really good at being blown.

Speaker 2 (01:54:33):
Kayla left to go.

Speaker 3 (01:54:34):
I was in Oklahoma all weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:54:35):
We went to Oklahoma City to the women's college World series,
Watch Softball, Watch Utah, I watch Oklahoma because we have
a family that coaches both of those teams. And I
had to do the show on Friday of last week,
so I didn't leave. But she left on Thursday morning,
and then I left on Friday after the show, so
I had a whole twenty four hours where she wasn't there,
and I was like, I'm play video games the whole time.
I haven't played golf with Eddie. I'm gonna do just
everything I wanted her as I'm gonna go hard. So

(01:54:57):
and I did it went hard, and so on Thursday,
you know, we did the show, we played golf. I
had like six popsicles. I had two big boxes.

Speaker 3 (01:55:05):
Of those crackers.

Speaker 2 (01:55:07):
I forget what they're called, but they're really good crack
the simple.

Speaker 3 (01:55:09):
Oh yeah, I had two whole boxes.

Speaker 2 (01:55:11):
And so me going hard with all the popsticles and
all the crackers felt terrible for two days. And so.

Speaker 3 (01:55:18):
My going heart is different than other folks is.

Speaker 2 (01:55:21):
But also it's not good when she's gone, because at
least she could put the governor and me be like, hey,
if you had a whole box of crackers today, yes, okay,
maybe we shouldn't needt any more of those today. And
she's not doing it because she doesn't want the crackers
to be gone. She knows I'm just gonna be like,
oh for a whole day. So that's what I did,
and I regret it. I found the popsicles on the
side of the road, though, what do you mean I did?
I forgot. I did a whole TikTok about it. I

(01:55:42):
was talking about the craziest thing she found on the
side of the road. I was driving home and there
was a big box of popsicles, not like a box
you buy in the grocery store, but like a.

Speaker 5 (01:55:49):
Big like a cardboard box, A huge one like if you.

Speaker 2 (01:55:54):
Like, you're moving box, do you take your arms and
you make a square out of your elbows degrees? Is
a box that big?

Speaker 3 (01:56:00):
And I'm like, is that a box of popsicle? So
I pulled over, I put them in the car. I
went home.

Speaker 2 (01:56:03):
I opened them up and had and that had all
the little boxes of popsicles. Well, that's amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:56:07):
It was amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:56:08):
So that's why I ate so many. I don't want
to go bad. I don't want to waste pole I forgot.
I found popsicles on the side.

Speaker 3 (01:56:14):
Of the road.

Speaker 2 (01:56:14):
Wow, I love popsicles, smoothies, soup, so any of that
stuff on the way way way? Did you eat all
of those popsicles? Well, I had a lot of them.
Had the whole box that one of the boxes of
red Okay, I'm sure what flavor red was that I
had the whole box of reds. So that's what I did.
Had a great time in Oklahoma. Everybody that I said
hello to I said hello to me in Oklahoma City.
It was in a really great, amazing time. It rained

(01:56:35):

but it was a lot of fun. So it's a
really cool event. But yeah, the popsticle thing was pretty tough.

Speaker 5 (01:59:24):
This story comes up from Fort Collins, Colorado. Police got
a report of a suspicious man in the neighborhood looking
through cars. So they show up to the neighborhood and
they recognize the guys that has several warrants. So they
say woo woo, woo woo, and he says nah, uh,
runs jumps in the river, floats down the river for
six hours to evade police.

Speaker 2 (01:59:45):
Did he evade them?

Speaker 5 (01:59:46):
Yeah? No, no, visually they got them.

Speaker 2 (01:59:47):
Oh, he didn't tell us that part floating. I mean,
that's a float trip right there. And you got away
from the clus.

Speaker 9 (01:59:53):
So what do they do?

Speaker 2 (01:59:54):
You just walk alongside him. Yeah, he's floating. Bye, we
see you, buddy.

Speaker 5 (01:59:57):
We're waiting for you.

Speaker 2 (01:59:58):
You aren't really going anywhere.

Speaker 5 (02:00:00):
And they never got in the water. And there was
parts where he was shallow enough where he'd get up
and walk and I'm like, well, why wouldn't you just
go tackle him then? But they just waited for six hours.

Speaker 2 (02:00:07):
They don't want to get wet. I get that. Is
it like dukes of hazard? Though when it crosses the
county line, they're like, dang it, I can't go get
him anymore. He made it all right, I'm lunch boxing.

Speaker 5 (02:00:17):
That's your bonehead story of the day.

Speaker 2 (02:00:20):
Glad you guys are here. Let's do the good news countdown.

Speaker 5 (02:00:23):
It's the good news countdown. Count him down, the biggest
good news story so across.

Speaker 2 (02:00:29):
The last Let's go. A nurse name Emily was flying
home to Baltimore after a vacation with her boyfriend who
also used to be a nurse, and they ended up
saving another passenger's life. The guy collapsed turned purple, They
jumped in kept doing CPR until he finally came back
seven minutes before their flight landed. They say they got
a lot of high fives from people on board and

(02:00:50):
hopefully a voucher from whatever airline it was. That when
you do CPR for a long time, like a long
because it's they did CPR for basically like a half
an hour, I think, And so you're doing CPR for
a long time because it said seven minutes before their
flight landed. So two things. One, I think I would
go like ten and they'd be like, well, I guess
he's out. We lost him. Yeah, I would do that

(02:01:11):
noise on the mountain. And then secondly, do you have
to get back and put your seat belt on a
quit if you are starting to descend, you know the
rules are you're now going down, So guys, get back
in your seats.

Speaker 3 (02:01:23):
But congratulations to this guy. He survived purple and all.

Speaker 2 (02:01:26):
All right. Next, a ninety six year old woman in
Canada broke a world record of the weekend. She ran
a five k and just over fifty one minutes. It
is the fastest time ever recorded by a woman over
the age of ninety five. Whoa, yeah, you guys are
like that.

Speaker 3 (02:01:39):
That doesn't that?

Speaker 2 (02:01:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:01:41):
Because of five k is what three points after miles?

Speaker 7 (02:01:43):
One?

Speaker 2 (02:01:44):
And so she did how many three point one? Three
point one? Let's say, like Mike d run seven minute miles,
it would take him twenty two minutes or so. It
took her fifty one minutes. Oh my goodness. Now she's
ninety five, she's a little that's crazy. The fact that
she could even jog at ninety five crazy, Yeah, shout.

Speaker 7 (02:02:04):
Out what makes a job though?

Speaker 2 (02:02:08):
Walking? Okay, anything faster than a walk? You go from
a walk to a jog. I think as soon as
stop walking. No, no, I was just like you know
when you see it, you know, when you do a
little you know it like your feet, No idea, all right.
Next up, a billionaire name Robert Hill Junior, spoke at
UMass's Boston graduation, and he surprised twenty five hundred students

(02:02:31):
by giving them one thousand dollars each. So he basically
gave away two point five million dollars. There was a condition, though,
he asked them to keep half for themself and give
the other half to a family member or someone who
helped them get to where they are today. But he
handed out two point five million dollars. You know what
I gave out when I did my speech at the
university markets all advice. Man, I'm honest with you. I

(02:02:56):
wish I'd have had a billion dollars. All right, that's
the good News countdown, the good News Countdown. I just
want to say a couple things. First of all, so
