Speaker 1 (00:01):
Good transmitting America.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
I hope you guys had a great three day weekend.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Really hope it was awesome and safe and we're glad
to be bagged more in the studio. So what we
do on our first show of the week is I
just asked a question. Can I get to know everybody
a little better? And I'll ask the question and then
I'll answer it so you guys can have a second
to think about it, because I'm being honest.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
They don't know the question, No, we don't.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Eddie was like asking before we came on the air, favorite, guys,
make your favorite ice cream?
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Yeah, I can do that. It is not that one.
Although what is you favorite ice cream? Rocky Road? Oh yeah,
I love it.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
You know, it used to be like chocolate for me,
just but now I think it's just a straight vanilla.
If I have to pick one, we'll go to the
ice cream place and I'll get like they have like
peaches and corn bread or nose. But I can't say
that would just be my favorite ice cream because it's
so rare, huh, just playing vanilla of all, like the
flavor of the standards.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Just playing like anything on it or in like swirl.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Yeah, like chocolate.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Well, if we can do that, then of course I'm
going to do all kinds of stuff. I'm gonna put rollos
in it in twis. But I'm saying it's got to
be like a standard Rocky Roads, a standard Y Different
but that brands make Rocky Road.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
That's chocolate too, you know, with almonds and marshmallows.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
I'm just gonna go with vanilla. And I love a
good bowl of an el ice cream. Okay, now you've
tricked me in to doing this one.
Speaker 5 (01:18):
Hey, so I already went, yeah, Amy, I mean min
chocolate Chip, blue Bell, the old school, I don't know.
I'm still I'm thinking of writing blue Bell because they
changed their mint chocolate chip.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Is it not good anymore?
Speaker 4 (01:28):
They've messed it up?
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Lunchbox cookies and cream pretty good? One makes really good. Okay,
So here's the actual question.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
What's something that you like that you never thought you'd
actually end up liking? And I will go first. For me,
it would be art choke carts, art chokes, artichoke cards.
Hated them as a kid, don't even know that I
had them. I look at them and be disgusted by it.
I like them now, same thing with olives. I'll be like, man,
(01:57):
I can just order olives straight up and one after
the other. So I'm going artichokes and olives and even
uncooked okra. I love fried okra. My girl made it
was awesome. But now I can just take uncooked okra
and crush it. So I'd say those it didn't have
to be a food, but that's mine. Maybe it's my
favorite icing to okra. Oh, and drinks Eddie Topo Chico.
Speaker 6 (02:17):
It's the Mexican carbonated sparkling water mineral water. So my
dad used to drink this all the time when I
was growing up, and he would burn. Like My memory
is a Topo Chico was me sitting in his lap,
him drinking it and going he would burn in his
mouth then blow it in my face. I'm like, this
is disgusting. So for years I'm like, I don't like this.
(02:39):
Now I thought a case, I don't put anything in it.
I love double Chico. He's burning his kid's face.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Too, just like Yeah, massages.
Speaker 7 (02:48):
I always thought it'd be weird to have some stranger
you lay down on the table and get naked and
they just rub your body.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
And let me tell you, it's amazing.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Later on in the show, we have a lunchbox and
massage story perfect timing. Oh hell, hilarious and I don't
even know if it's real. It's one of those does
lunchwroks let dudes do with Well, we can.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Get into that too.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Yeah, Amy birds, you didn't like birds birds ele so
that means you hated America?
Speaker 5 (03:14):
No, well, but like having a bird feeder, watching birds,
playing bird bingo.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
I like to play bird bingo.
Speaker 8 (03:22):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
I have a list of all the birds that are
native to our area or come to us, and then
you when you see one, you cross it off and
you're like, whoa, I finally spotted one of those, or
I spotted one of those, and it's just fun to
like look at a chart and match the birds.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
That doesn't mean like bird watching.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
You have no interest in birds, but now you like it.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Always liked birds?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
But yes, well, so the question is what's something you
didn't like and now you like?
Speaker 5 (03:44):
Oh okay, I just never saw myself liking bird watching,
So can.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
I say I didn't like that's good?
Speaker 5 (03:49):
I would see people bird watch like I'd go run
the hike and bikes so stupid.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I wish they'd died.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Yeah, yeah, it's time for the male You.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Friends of mail and he's reading all the air if
something we call Bobby and mail bag.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Yeah, hello, Bobby bones. I have been married for two years.
I still don't have a relationship with my father in law,
but I'd like to be closer with him. I've made
efforts to get to know him and spend quality time
together one on one, but we still feel like strangers.
He can be a little shut off. We don't have
many things in common. I've even made the effort to
do the things that he likes, even though they're not
(04:28):
things that I like, like sports or hunting or golf.
Seems like you'd rather just do them alone than with me.
What advice would you have on getting closer to him?
Have you bonded with your father in law? Signed lost
son in law? For me, it was I won't say easy,
because it's always awkward at first. It's due to dude,
And it's also a dude that is the dad of
(04:48):
your girl, and you know what you're doing with your girl.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
He also knows who's doing with so that's the whole situation.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
But I'm very lucky that my father in law is
a die hard sports fan, and that is I mean,
we text constantly about sports, which then since you have
an open dialogue, it allows for other things to pop
in and not to be weird. So I just don't
text about nowhere and be like, hey, I know I
haven't talked to you in three months, But so that
never happens. It's always with us Oklahoma football and recruiting
(05:18):
Arkansas football and recruiting basketball, softball, sports sports.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Sports.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Again, same reason that I think fantasy football is great
for dudes to play because it keeps like an open
communication between all of us, and so while you're communicating,
you're also free to add other live stuff as well,
because I'm not just gonna call up Ray and be like, hey.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Man, look i've been feeling kind of sad lately. I
wish guys did that.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Mostly we don't, but if Ry and I were playing
fantas football together and I'm like, yeah, man, not only
did Patrick Mahomes not score, I needed two touchdowns? This
has a crap at Homes got me down too. So
it's like in the race, like, really, what's going on?
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Is that's it? That's how guys are interesting? What's up?
Speaker 6 (05:58):
No, it's interesting I mean, yeah, we're that studd that
we have to like have sports to talk real.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
Life, Like I just call a friend. I'm like, we don't.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
We don't do that because we're cavemen and we're embarrassed
to have any sort of feeling or emotion. Now back
to your problem. You have got to find you got
to find what you have in common. Otherwise it's just
gonna always feel clunky, and it's gonna feel like you're
always forcing it.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
And that's okay. Maybe that's just the relationship.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Sometimes there's only nothing to bond over and you disagree
to be there.
Speaker 6 (06:29):
If you need each other, there's always something because like
my father in law, like he's in antiques. I don't
like antiques, but man, once I hit him with those
antique questions, he went off, and that's that's what we like,
really bonded.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
So I like the effort of trying the things that
he loves, but you're never gonna stay committed to it,
and it'd be authentic if.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
You don't as well.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
So I would encourage you to just try to find
other things that he likes or other things that have
happened in his life that you also. It's just having
something in common, that's it, and from that everything else
can happen. So that's my advice to you find it. It's there.
It may not be something huge, but it's there. And
if you can find that common thread, then all the
other stuff can come on top of it. That's what
(07:09):
I have to say. And you want to give me advising, Well, yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
I mean I think also too with your father in
law Bobby, like he's just a yeah, y'all have sports,
but he's like just a cool, nice, warm, once to
be connected guy.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
So I don't know.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
I'm struggling because what I hear is some some men
just don't want to connect. So I also think he
might need to be realistic and that sometimes it just
doesn't work. Just be patient because it sounds like he
could be a personality that's more shut off and not
willing to give you the time you need for this
type of relationship.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
But patience because people can change.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Anybody. Everybody has something that they're passion. Just find there
is something there. You just got to dig in, keep digging,
keep digging. You'll find it.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Good luck.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
It's a very common thing. I'll talk about a lot,
but you know what, we'll talk about it here where.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
We have to break the ice with Patrick Mahomes first.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Yeah, so that's the thing, right, I just need it
four more points in my fantasy.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
What's aout? My prosty's killing?
Speaker 4 (08:03):
We got your mail and.
Speaker 9 (08:05):
On your air Now it's side the clothes.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Bobby failed.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
All right, Uber Lift, you got your phone, you hit
the app. I'm right here, pick me up. They pick
you up, fam boom.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
Well, there's a new version of this. Have you guys
heard of Black Wolf?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
No, that'll sound good.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Black Wolf is different because whoever picks you up has
a gun.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
And what do they do with that?
Speaker 8 (08:30):
Mate?
Speaker 2 (08:30):
I guess make sure you don't get any crap.
Speaker 10 (08:32):
Okay, security or they they don't rob you. Okay, that's
a bad business. Yeah that that thing would last five seconds.
So that's basically what it is. It's a right sheering
app to compete with Uber and Lyft. It's been launching
Atlanta and New York and the drive. Every vehicle have
a gun bunchbox.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
This is bowler like.
Speaker 6 (08:52):
This is what you want when you're like rich and famous,
You have security with guns.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
It's being sold as executive protection for people who are
worried about their personal safety.
Speaker 7 (09:00):
Yeah, I don't ever hear stories about people robbing the
Uber and Lyft driver with people in it.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
I feel I hear the I don't, I don't. I
don't like it.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Drivers need to pass the backgrounds check and trained to
de escalate any situation if a confrontation should occur on
the road. The guy that started it worked as a
private investigator in a bodyguard and claims that many of
the drivers who work from the company come from military
and security backgrounds, and basically it is Uber left but
for protection.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
I mean the founder. He looks pretty legit.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
That stuff to him. Yeah, I'm shocked Lunchbus doesn't like this.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
I know it would be the most baller thing. Yeah,
that's from that's from cool.
Speaker 7 (09:38):
If he walked into a restaurant with me, or walked
around the casino with me. But all he's doing is
driving me to the front and dropping me off. No
one even knows that he has learned the cars that
black wolf. Yeah, that sounds kind of cool.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
He likes that. Here's another story I saw that. I'm like,
I gotta talk about this.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
This Stanford professor, which we feel like if you're a
professor of Stanford. You are there, went there, Stanford professor.
He says that he's one hundred percent believes that extraterrestrials
have not only visited Earth, but they've been here for
a long time and their price on the planet today.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Okay, I meant to say wacky too smart.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Probably don't think that's He is a professor pathology at
Stanford's Medical School. He made the stunning claim during last
week Salt Eye Connections conference. There was a whole like
session of the Pentagon Extraterrestrial UFOs.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
And he gets up and he says it.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Somebody asked him do you believe extraterrestrial life has visited Earth?
And he said, I think I can go further. It
hasn't just visited. It's been here for a long time.
It's still here. Come on, I need a black wolf
if this is true. I mean, you gotta check this.
I mean, Stanford gonna keepim on staff.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Yeah, I got fired. You did not hear that you
made that up?
Speaker 3 (10:52):
One They asked him again, that's tough to believe, and
the guy goes, no, one hundred percent And it's not
just my opinion. The National des Authorization I passed last
year signed by the President in December thirty pages of
that the establishment they know of unidentified aerial phenomena.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
You have talked about this question. I'm just saying, guys,
what are you saying.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
I'm just saying, just because you think it doesn't mean
it's right. But do you think he's right?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
I think they could be in our animals. I made
that theory up myself. You even said bottom of the ocean.
Speaker 4 (11:20):
Yeah, but would you ever say one hundred per.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
But I didn't make up to the bottom of the year.
I heard that one.
Speaker 10 (11:24):
That's the theory.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
They could have called the animals years being tiny and
now they're just living as our animals, learning everything about us.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
That's crazy. That's my theory. And if anybody else is
that crap? They stole it from mobile.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Well, whatever one took over my dog is psychotic.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
That's an alien. Yeah, you get a bad alien. Yeah,
they're like but lemon cars. They come off. I just
messed up. You got a bad one. Yeah, it's time
for the good news ready.
Speaker 6 (11:50):
Joanna Castillo is a student at Faith Family Academy in
Oak Cliffe in Dallas, Texas, and man like.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Since she started high school, she hasn't missed a single
day of school. So a local.
Speaker 6 (12:02):
Dealership, a Jeep dealership, says, you know what, we have
a program going on that if you have perfect attendance,
you get a free car.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
So Joanna now is driving car, a free car.
Speaker 6 (12:11):
Joanna's driving a twenty sixteen Jeep Patriots.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Let's go if people know about this beforehand, because nobody
would ever miss school. Yeah, I'd be dragging out with
COVID and school's not even in. I'm like, I'm still here.
Speaker 6 (12:21):
They said that they've been promoting it more to encourage
other people. She was one out of five that had
really good attendance, but she won wild you would get.
Speaker 7 (12:29):
A car car Wait wait wait, they said new car.
You said she got a twenty sixteen. That's not a
new car.
Speaker 9 (12:34):
Car.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
It's a new car to her.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
That's right, doesn't matter, it's a car. I don't know
that missed in car barely? Did you have perfect.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I might have missed a day occasionally, I don't think
all through high school, but I never missed school. I
mean that I would drag. It's like this job. Yeah,
I dragged myself in here if I have to.
Speaker 6 (12:54):
So you think Joanna like had was really sick in
the win anyway at times.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
But I'm not going to say she's you're responsible because
I don't know. I don't know the truth. But that
is great.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
That will really do her well later in life, that
she's already disciplined a condition like that.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
Yeah, so, kids, if you're listening, go to school, don't
miss a single day.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
I'd hire her right now. Well, if they're given jeep away,
nobody's missing a day ever, I know. All right, that's
a great story, and shout out to the jeep place.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
What's his name again? His name is Mark Gallas. He's
the CEO of it. But they don't say the dealership,
damn name getting the plug? Nope, Nope. Their PR team's
got to do a better job. Yeah but Mark, he's
a CEO. Al right, my ceo, Mark, Nice job, buddy.
All right, that's what it's all about. That was telling
me something good. I want to share a story with
you guys. He was a former soldier.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
He lost both legs to an ied in Afghanistan. He
just made history by scaling Mount Everest. He used special
prosthetics with spikes to help him climb, So basically his
prosthetics have kind of cleats in them, and he's also
got on for his arms too to help pull him up.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
He said he went into deep depression after the injury,
and then he.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Decided to keep living.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
He went skydiving, he got involved in Paralympic sports, He
started climbing mountains. He was the first person to climb
Everest after losing both legs above the knee. His motto
is nothing's impossible, you just have to adapt. Now he's
planning to go back to Afghanistan to the spot where
he lost his legs so he can say thank you
and it'd be some kind of closure for what he's learned.
He says he never would have climbed Everest if that
(14:23):
hadn't happened.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Quote.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Whatever happens, it happens for good if you make it good.
So this guy never made an excuse. He never made
an excuse. And I just wanted to say that because
we so many times can make excuses. We can find
ways to make things not happen. It's very easy to
find a reason to not do something. It's very easy
for us to go, well, and I'm time to do that.
(14:46):
I got this and that you're right. We are our priorities,
which leads me to go to Scuba Steve and see
how his TV show idea is coming.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Come on, because come on, come on, because I mean
all of it. But this is a deal, Scooba. Steve's like,
I have this idea for a TV show. I've been
holding it for ten years. It's a great show.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
I just don't have the time. And I say, I
say to Scooba Steve, you do. We are our priorities.
We make time for what our priorities are. So that
being said, I said, Scooba, I will give you fifteen
minutes a day on this show to or go to
my office for fifteen minutes in the middle of the
show prime time and just work on this TV idea
(15:28):
of this show, this radio show that he runs executive produce,
Like fifteen minutes.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
We'll be okay. Fifteen minutes, Scooba, how's the TV show
idea coming.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
I just got my computer back after being gone for
a week, so I've been battling that.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
No other computer.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
It's not even if you can do for your phone,
what about a pin paper?
Speaker 1 (15:45):
And I got a lot of excuses, which is funny
because I was flying to Autome last week and I
was looking for my notebook, and all week long I
kept poking at me in my backpack of my what
does this keep poking at me? It's my notebook, and
it was a sign to write in it and start
doing this TV show. And I pulled it out, got
the pen ready, and then I got sidetracked by kids.
I get sidetracked by work. That's the and I know
(16:06):
their excuses. But it's difficult to focus on one thing
when you've got seventeen other things.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Focus on it, says every human right, It's difficult because
if it were easy, everybody would be doing it.
Speaker 8 (16:18):
Yes, that's a good point.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
If it were easy, everybody would meet their goals and
we'd all be freaking eating pecans all night long, watching
niked Night and the World's awesome. It's not the World's hard.
If you want something you have to sacrifice for, it
doesn't matter what it is. Doesn't matter if you want
to be a great dad, or you want to move
up high in the industry, it doesn't matter. If you
want balance, balance is hard work. It's all sacrifice. Anything
(16:40):
you want to be great at is sacrifice. Anything you
want to to do to have done that, you're that
you're proud of it's sacrifice, and if you just don't
want to do it, that's okay. But you keep saying
you want to do it, and then you keep having
excuses or you keep prioritizing other things over it.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
I know, and I feel like those are these but
but the.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
I'm trying to stumble on my words here and give
you a clear thought. But really, life gets in the
way and you have to prioritize what's the most important,
and for me, it's family and what.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Yeah, agree, I give you fifteen minutes during this show, though.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
I'm trying to find fifteen minutes to walk away, and
I guess I have to be better at that and
I'll make it more time.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Give up the idea.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
And I'm not giving up the idea because I've held
on to it for so long and no one's done
it yet that there's a reason why, and so I
have to do it.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
But you keep saying you have to, but you're not.
I know.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
But I've never had somebody actually like yourself, give me
a hard time by not doing it.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Not give your hard time. Challenge you to be the
person that you say you are. Yes, challenge is a
better way to say it. And if you said I'm
not that person, I'm like, cool, don't worry about it.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
No, I am that person. There's always crap in the way,
there's always sacrificing.
Speaker 7 (17:44):
I mean that notebook was poking him, Man, poke me
for a week, and I didn't do anything with it.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Dude, fix you. Yeah, sounds like a new binder man.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
But I am someone that has been challenged my whole
life and had to overcome challenges and work hard at things.
Nothing was handed or given to me, so I should
I should harness that and work at this. It is
my fault for not doing it for the last several weeks,
and come tomorrow I will start working on it.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
I don't care when you start working on it. I
don't need to see the report. I just know you
and think that you want to be the person that
you say you are, and I think you are. Yeah,
And I don't want everybody to live with that attitude.
Like man, But but but sometimes you just can't do
it because it's not the priority. And if you say,
you know what, it's not the priority, I'm not gonna
do it right now. Cool, But you can't talk out
(18:31):
of both sides of your mouth. Be like, this is
the priority. I want to do it, but I also
got work.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
But here you go.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
I'm saying, take fifteen minutes, drop it, go work on
it every day so someone.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
With experience like yourself, So I can dial down and focus.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
On one thing. I've never focused on one thing, well not,
and I even just in.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
General, but on this particular project, should I focus on
the like dialing down the concept, writing the script.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
All the whole thing. I would do the concept.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
I'd work on the concept first, Okay, I'd write if
I were in an elevator with somebody for forty five seconds,
how I'd pitch it. And then I'd build it out
from there, and then I whatever you want to do. Okay,
it may take seven years fifteen minutes at.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
A time, but that's okay.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
But yes, but seven years later, when you have it
done fifteen minutes a time, you're gonna go, why didn't
I do this stupid script? Do you know the best
time to plant a tree twenty years ago? You know
the second best time today?
Speaker 2 (19:22):
That's a good question.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Tell him how to eat an elephant.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
I don't believe any elephants. So we're gonna move on
from we don't eat elephants and we don't kill them.
No African jungles are me.
Speaker 5 (19:32):
That whatever one by the time, Hey, and in addition
to everything, Bobby's saying, are you open to one more
thing maybe.
Speaker 8 (19:41):
That I have?
Speaker 5 (19:41):
Okay, this is something that's worked for me.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
It may not be for you.
Speaker 5 (19:45):
But whenever you come on and Bobby's you know, asking
you for challenging you, I can I hear over and
over the word difficult and can't find the time. And
so I think as long as you you're leaning into
that narrative. So if you keep saying that and over
over and over, you're gonna keep finding it to be difficult.
You're gonna keep getting interrupted with other things. So maybe
change that narrative of being open to the time and
(20:08):
not looking at it as so difficult, Like remove the
negative language.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Okay, this is coming from the queen of focus.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
I'm not talking about but I do do things.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Absolutely. What has he ever done? Though, now he's jumping
into it.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
We're doing We can pass this around. We passed the
beat up baton all around the room.
Speaker 8 (20:26):
We're good.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
That was beat up. It was encouraged.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
I'm talking about from lunchbox to you.
Speaker 4 (20:29):
Oh he did beat me up here.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
You don't have to do it. If you're not gonna
do it, though, poop me get off the pot. Okay,
that's what I'm saying. I am going to do it.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
I'n't changed my narrative to push myself and I.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Will thank you.
Speaker 6 (20:41):
Ignore your kids a little bit too, No, a little bit.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
You can have time here, Okay, thank you, Thank you
so Bobby.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Bones Show interviews.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
In case you didn't know, well, it's my favorite band
of all time, the Counting Crows. I never got to meet,
uh them, Derret. It's'm my whole life except for now today,
which is a big moment for me and actually Eddie's
friendship in mind where it's all been forged on Counting Crows.
That's true, if you know the truth of it. He's
a big deal. I'm not cool, everybody, you promise, no.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Cool for you. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
Let's just see what Let's see what happens here. Adam
Durret's lead singer of Counting Crows. By the way, Counting
Crows are going on the Banshee season Tour Special Guests
Dashboard Professional kicks off June thirteenth. You would know Counting
Crows from Mister Jones along December from Shrek to Accidentally
in Love. I act like that song is not my favorite,
(21:37):
but when it comes on I love it. I'm like
I don't like it comes on. I'm like, that's good,
Big yellow Taxi, Vanessa Carlton here.
Speaker 11 (21:46):
You don't know what you got to be a paradise And.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Here he is on the Bobby Bones Show.
Speaker 9 (21:53):
Now Adam Durrett's of Counting Crows.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Adam, how are you man?
Speaker 8 (21:57):
I am good. Let's turn all this off.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
Well, if it's somebody cool, you leave it on and
we'll play phone roulette, and if somebody cool calls you
can just answer it.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
Hi, Mom, how you been?
Speaker 8 (22:07):
I'm pretty good.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
You're here for a couple of reasons.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
One, I have a mount rushmore my favorite people in
the world who I haven't met, and it is David Letterman,
it is Steve Martin, It's Howard Stern and Adam Duritz.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
So three remain, but you check it off my list.
Speaker 8 (22:21):
Now I've got all those except for Steve Martin.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
You haven't met Steve Martin, now seen him?
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Mister Jones, You guys kind of imagining what fame is
like or what celebrity is, Like, how long did you
write that song before that actually happened?
Speaker 11 (22:35):
Mister Jones is from sort of the middle version of
Counting Crows. It's probably about nineteen ninety ninety one.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Was it one of those that fell out?
Speaker 8 (22:44):
Yeah? Pretty much? Really, I mean I don't know, you.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Know, well anything wrote it all that night, anything in
front in front of five hours?
Speaker 2 (22:50):
It was almost like falling out.
Speaker 11 (22:51):
Most of my songs back then were probably less than
five hours. I get really determined to just sit there
and do it until it's done.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Now, if you get famous, there's all the social media
that comes at you. And I've had different smaller ish
type events where it's just like wow. But when you
blow up in the nineties and two thousands and fame
is not able to get to you through those means.
How does fame get to you if you're always on
the road moving around.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Is it just crowds? Is it just people?
Speaker 8 (23:18):
You know, it's weird.
Speaker 11 (23:19):
We've been on the road for a while before it happened, really,
and it had been building, you know. We played Saturday
Night Live and we ended up being the top thirteen
and six and then two for the next two years,
but uh, I didn't really see you know. We were
on the road on our own for a while at
Christmas and we seem to be a kind of a
hot indie band for a little bit. And then we
(23:40):
went back to opening for Cracker and we flew back
from Europe and landed in New Orleans right before JazzFest.
And I'd been going to JazzFest for years, so I'd
spent a lot of time in New Orleans as a fan. Yeah,
I think it, yeah, because we weren't before the band. Really,
this was my first time at JazzFest after the first
record was out, and I went to the festival the
first day after we got and got mobbed. The things
(24:02):
that had been building that spring and winter had happened.
It had kind of all coalesced while we were in Europe.
I mean that the next you know, a few months
were very strange. I remember being on tour and being
in Birmingham and having a day off and deciding there
was like a movie theater about four blocks from the hotel,
and I walked down and I was watching this movie.
There's no one in the theater but me. It was weird.
(24:23):
It's like an afternoon Mattinee or something. This guy comes
walking down the aisle, walks up the row and sits
next to me, and I was like, hey, a whole
empty theater, says right now. He said, hey, I'm a
really big fan. I was like, thanks, man. He said,
do you mind if I sit here. I'm like, look,
I'm just trying to watch a movie. If you don't mind,
I just just want to watch a movie. And he
got up and left. And about forty five minutes later
(24:46):
saw a guy coming down the island, but it wasn't
the same guy. It was the guy that was working
the concession stand out there, and he said, hey, are
you in counting crows? And I said yeah, and he goes,
I don't know what's going on, but there was some
guy in here before, and for the last half hour
he's been on the payphone in the lobby calling people.
And there's a huge crowd outside. You know, if you
want to get out of here, there's like a door
(25:07):
at the bottom, like a alley exit. And I said yeah,
thanks man, and I snuck out the alley and walk
down the street and then I heard this noise behind me.
I turned around. There's this massive crowd of people out
in front of the theater and they all start running.
I ran like, I just ran down the street, got
to the hotel, like ahead of this crowd.
Speaker 8 (25:27):
It was just a little while after jazz Fest.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
You didn't even have the infrastructure to be famous, because
it all happened while you were gone. You didn't know
you landed, it's here, and you didn't have security, didn't
have anything to make sure you're even safe.
Speaker 11 (25:41):
No, never really got any of that stuff either. We
never really I had a lot of friends in bands
who had security. We never really got security out with
us or any of that stuff. It just seemed like
you could sort of avoid it.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
The Shrek song, which is how a lot of kids
would know you accidentally in love. Was that written purposefully
for that movie or was it a song that you
guys or that you had already had some what and
thought this will be right, let's you know, turn it
into that.
Speaker 11 (26:04):
How'd that come now? That was written for the movie?
I got a call about doing it. I went over
to you know, DreamWorks Amblin Spielberg studio there, and they
showed me the scene they wanted and kind of told
me the flavor. There was a Weezer song on there
originally just as a temp track. I think as soon
as I got the offer, my whole thought was, this
is exactly what I want to do.
Speaker 8 (26:24):
This is like being on a really good Disney film.
You know. I saw it.
Speaker 11 (26:27):
I thought it was fantastic, you know, and also has
a chance to you know, get new fans who are younger,
and you know, I was so excited to do that
because it'll be there forever, and I'm really proud of
the song, and I think the movie's fantastic.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
At Countingcrows Countingcrows dot Com the turf, it's almost sixty dates.
I will be at the one here. You're playing at
the opry House, which is super cool. But basically every
city we're in, you're in Countingcrows dot Com. Adam, thank
you very much.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
I appreciate that.
Speaker 8 (26:55):
Thanks you, guys.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Here's a voicemail from Alex from Montana.
Speaker 12 (27:00):
My mom and me and my kids were traveling from
Atlanta back to Mountiana and we were just walking in Tsa.
There was Amy Adams just helping your kid in Tsa.
I took Bobby's advice and because she was with her kid,
I didn't go up to her and asker for a
picture or anything. But my mom was like, hey, I'm
(27:21):
a big fan of yours, and she was just super
kind and thanked her that I just wanted to tell someone.
So I hope you guys have a great day.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Thanks. She seems like she'ld be nice. I like Amy Adams,
probably because she seems nice, no other reason.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
She seems normal and nice.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Yeah, she's like deceivingly super pretty. Really, she's so normal,
but then really she's like super pretty.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Huh.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
She like downplays it like Pam from the Office. Yeah,
like Jenni Fisher was always really pretty, but then they
had her kind of play it way down because they
had to play the secretary.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Do you guys know that? No learned? I never know
nor all Right.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Next up, this is a voicemail we got last night
about Amy our Amy.
Speaker 12 (28:00):
I heard Amy say about taking a biology final with
Sam and I'm wondering if I missed some episode, is
she going.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Back to school?
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Great question. Amy's trying to be a doctor. Yeah really, Amy,
Yeah that was your.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Kids, right.
Speaker 5 (28:15):
Yeah, So my sixteen year old had finals and we
were studying and I feel like I was about to
take an exam because I was studying so hard, I mean,
sent three hours.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
One night, and you said if they didn't do a
good job, you were going to be upset because you
put so much effort into it.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
And how they do.
Speaker 4 (28:29):
We don't have the final scores yet.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
Man, they take forever to get the white.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
You know, Bobby, what you're referring to is a paper
that I.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Wrote, Oh got it?
Speaker 4 (28:36):
How that do we wrote?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
She wrote, yeah, she wrote, she just said that wrong.
Came out wrong.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
We gotta be on that.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Even though that she's forty, so annoying.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
Amy goes back to the school and.
Speaker 4 (28:50):
I was like a bee.
Speaker 5 (28:54):
So anyway, the biology I didn't I couldn't physically go
take the test, although I am prepared.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
I know that. But you don't have the results back
for this.
Speaker 4 (29:04):
That was just yeah, we don't have them yet.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
I thank you Amy's pile of stories.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
I've got three questions you can ask yourself to avoid
buyer's remorse.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Okay, go ahead, Where will.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
I store this thing?
Speaker 8 (29:19):
Good?
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Like a kayak for example? Sometimes the table fun idea,
But then I've.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
Done that twice, not just once, twice in my life.
I bought a poll table and regretted it both times
when Arkansas Keith plays, So you're good.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
I just got rid of it. I just got rid
of it.
Speaker 4 (29:32):
You did oh I saw it was missing.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
I didn't even noticed. I gave it away.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
It's just taking a space. Andre was gonna stot it,
that's the question. Yeah twice, I did that, like I.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Did it once in my twenties.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Early twenties is like, Okay, I got a little money now,
it's pretty cool. I'm not loving paycheck to paycheck. First
thing I'm gonna do is buy a pool table. And
I did, you know, stupid. I never played at hung
clothes on it. It just became that. Then I was like,
all right, got a little space forty now and buy
me a pool table.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
Same thing. Stupid.
Speaker 5 (30:01):
Well, so these are we're talking bigger items. But they
also say that, you know, an air fryer, A lot
of people think they're great.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
It's the greatest thing ever. Buy it. Oh, it's awesome.
Don't listen to the story. You'll love it. Get an
air fryer, never look back.
Speaker 5 (30:12):
I agree, But they're saying that's another way to just evaluate, like, hey,
I have limited storage space, whatever else.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
You have away. Put the air fryer there because it
is invaluable.
Speaker 4 (30:22):
Because it's an eyesore on the counter.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Ours it's black and sleek.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Oh, well, you pull out the little handle, Okay, put
the peaches in there. Cook out those peaches, air fried
with a little parchs what we call paper under their
horsement money.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
My wife makes fish in there. I hate fish, but
not in the air fryer.
Speaker 11 (30:40):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
I mildly dislike it. Oh.
Speaker 5 (30:43):
The second question ask yourself is how will I clean
this thing? Because I mean, does it have a lot
of maintenance you need to take care of it? Is
there going to be added?
Speaker 2 (30:50):
Okay? Full table? I don't clean air fryer. I also
don't clean so easy.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
It's pretty easy though somebody's cleaning it.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Yeah, yeah, I'm not okay.
Speaker 5 (30:58):
And then the third question is what will I do
with this thing when I'm done?
Speaker 3 (31:02):
Give it away and give it away, done, sell it
because if you're gonna sell it, they're not you come
get it.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
So give it away. But it's heavy and stupid.
Speaker 4 (31:10):
Yeah, so you give it away. And how do you
even pick up a pull table?
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Strong arms? And we've been working out and me we
did it.
Speaker 5 (31:18):
So Kate met Middleton met with a bunch of kids
and drew pictures for them instead of giving them her autograph.
And this is fascinating to me. Why she couldn't give
them her autograph. It turns out the royal family isn't
allowed to sign autographs ever because then.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
People could forge their signatures.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
Wow, but what's their signature for? Like, do they ever
sign anything? Do they know how to sign their name?
Do they get a pen?
Speaker 4 (31:43):
Well that's a good point. I guess you probably don't
write checks?
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Yeah, I don't, didn't you know?
Speaker 3 (31:47):
It's like maybe you ever see the tiktoks of people
trying to figure out to skip again.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
It's a money thing where people are like, I notic
skip it. They're like, oh my god, oh I have
seen that.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Yeah, and it's people going wait, kind that's what I
feel like, give one of them a pen, like, wait,
how do.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
I sign my linken? They used to do it maybe
but not anymore. Yeah? Crazy interesting?
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Okay, Well, speaking of autographs, Garth Brooks has partnered with
a tattoo shop in Vegas where.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
They have his signature.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Boobs your boots Okay, yeah, huh.
Speaker 5 (32:20):
So he has his Las Vegas residency coming up, so
people that are going, they can go to the tattoo shop.
Speaker 4 (32:26):
It's called hypnotic tattoos.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
You have a signature at the tattoo shop and they
just do it this.
Speaker 5 (32:31):
Yeah, and Garth is in agreement with this, like, hey,
book this appointment seven twenty five hundred. They said that
they're pretty booked, but they are trying to make room
for more and like the space they've reserved for this
sold out, so everybody's getting the Garth signature tattoo.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
Thinking about Garth too, I think Ray could speak on
this as well, because it's raises like God soigners or whatever.
He doesn't sign anything unless he makes it specifically to someone, right, Yeah,
we have a guitar in our living room. It has
That's the way. Somebody can't resell it on Craigslist or Facebook, marketplace.
Anything he's ever given me, he's written directly, not that
I'm gonna sell it, but he makes a point or
someone's taking guards sign this is like I have to
(33:09):
sign it to somebody, so it's not just made for resale,
right are you guys Scottson, No, No, that sounds awesome.
My wife's really close to him, and her dad works
for Guards are yours guy, No, you should roll with that.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
Yeah, that was Amy's pile of stores.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
It's time for the good news, Bobby.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
Let's go over to the phones and talk to Doug
who lives in Nashville.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Doug, what do you have for us? Buddy?
Speaker 9 (33:37):
Hey, how you doing, Bobby Hut Studio.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
What's happening? So tell us or tell me something good?
Speaker 9 (33:42):
Okay? So, yeah, I appreciate it. So I had a friend,
uh San Diego, where I used to live, and uh,
he just notified everybody that he got diagnosed. So he
had to get rushed to the hospital with stomach pain.
Turns out he's got stage four calling cancer and like nobody,
you know, there's no to know that until you obviously
get something like that. So a friend, a mutual friend,
(34:05):
started a gofone me page to help them, you know,
like for medical senses, because he's got two kids and
his wife and he's a really funny guy who runs
a beer blog, a craft beer blog page, and he's
a funny guy. But anyway, long start short was that
he you know, they didn't know what to put down
as a fund of man, so they put down ten
thousand and they reached the fund in twelve hours and
(34:27):
then the next day it was two hundred thousand, and
I'm like, good lord, and I'm like and you know,
because you don't know how much cancer treatment's gonna cost.
You know, hopefully he pulls through and everything's going to
be all right. But I just thought it was like wow,
like in two days, two hundred thousand like that, and
that's just from people across the country that knew his
(34:49):
you know, craft beard blog page and things like that.
I'm like, wow, like that's that's a huge you.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Know, yeah, I God, that's how I got known, like
how it got went viral in But if you had
that's a lot of money for any GoFundMe. And in
two days, that's a lot of people giving up their
money so this dude can have a shot.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
That's awesome. Doug. How's do you know how he's doing? Now?
Speaker 9 (35:12):
Yeah? No, well, I mean it's it's day to day,
so I keep I keep checking in with them, but
you know, until the treatment starts and all that like
literally just fine, you know, getting you know, in a week,
that's just it's just scary to me as a guy
that's o't oliver her too. And I'm like good Lord,
Like really, that's just anyway, So uh yeah, I just
(35:33):
I wish for the best and I hope everything's going
to be our Thanks for letting me share it, and uh,
you guys are awesome. I love your show man.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Thanks man.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
I appreciate that story. And you know, I think stress
can also help or hurt things, as in, if you
don't have stress, it can help it. If you do
have a lot of stress, I can hurt it. And
if you're going through something like that and you're stressed
out because of finances, it ain't helping it. You're like,
I'm going through this, I have cancer, I don't know
what I'm gonna do, and I don't have the money
to pay for. That's going to only amplify it. So
(36:02):
shout out everybody who doing it. That's a really great
story that I love it. When callers call in and
tell us something good, that's what it's all about.
Speaker 2 (36:08):
That was telling me something good.
Good transmitting America.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
I hope you guys had a great three day weekend.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Really hope it was awesome and safe and we're glad
to be bagged more in the studio. So what we
do on our first show of the week is I
just asked a question. Can I get to know everybody
a little better? And I'll ask the question and then
I'll answer it so you guys can have a second
to think about it, because I'm being honest.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
They don't know the question, No, we don't.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Eddie was like asking before we came on the air, favorite, guys,
make your favorite ice cream?
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Yeah, I can do that. It is not that one.
Although what is you favorite ice cream? Rocky Road? Oh yeah,
I love it.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
You know, it used to be like chocolate for me,
just but now I think it's just a straight vanilla.
If I have to pick one, we'll go to the
ice cream place and I'll get like they have like
peaches and corn bread or nose. But I can't say
that would just be my favorite ice cream because it's
so rare, huh, just playing vanilla of all, like the
flavor of the standards.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Just playing like anything on it or in like swirl.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Yeah, like chocolate.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Well, if we can do that, then of course I'm
going to do all kinds of stuff. I'm gonna put rollos
in it in twis. But I'm saying it's got to
be like a standard Rocky Roads, a standard Y Different
but that brands make Rocky Road.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
That's chocolate too, you know, with almonds and marshmallows.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
I'm just gonna go with vanilla. And I love a
good bowl of an el ice cream. Okay, now you've
tricked me in to doing this one.
Speaker 5 (01:18):
Hey, so I already went, yeah, Amy, I mean min
chocolate Chip, blue Bell, the old school, I don't know.
I'm still I'm thinking of writing blue Bell because they
changed their mint chocolate chip.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Is it not good anymore?
Speaker 4 (01:28):
They've messed it up?
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Lunchbox cookies and cream pretty good? One makes really good. Okay,
So here's the actual question.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
What's something that you like that you never thought you'd
actually end up liking? And I will go first. For me,
it would be art choke carts, art chokes, artichoke cards.
Hated them as a kid, don't even know that I
had them. I look at them and be disgusted by it.
I like them now, same thing with olives. I'll be like, man,
(01:57):
I can just order olives straight up and one after
the other. So I'm going artichokes and olives and even
uncooked okra. I love fried okra. My girl made it
was awesome. But now I can just take uncooked okra
and crush it. So I'd say those it didn't have
to be a food, but that's mine. Maybe it's my
favorite icing to okra. Oh, and drinks Eddie Topo Chico.
Speaker 6 (02:17):
It's the Mexican carbonated sparkling water mineral water. So my
dad used to drink this all the time when I
was growing up, and he would burn. Like My memory
is a Topo Chico was me sitting in his lap,
him drinking it and going he would burn in his
mouth then blow it in my face. I'm like, this
is disgusting. So for years I'm like, I don't like this.
(02:39):
Now I thought a case, I don't put anything in it.
I love double Chico. He's burning his kid's face.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Too, just like Yeah, massages.
Speaker 7 (02:48):
I always thought it'd be weird to have some stranger
you lay down on the table and get naked and
they just rub your body.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
And let me tell you, it's amazing.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Later on in the show, we have a lunchbox and
massage story perfect timing. Oh hell, hilarious and I don't
even know if it's real. It's one of those does
lunchwroks let dudes do with Well, we can.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Get into that too.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Yeah, Amy birds, you didn't like birds birds ele so
that means you hated America?
Speaker 5 (03:14):
No, well, but like having a bird feeder, watching birds,
playing bird bingo.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
I like to play bird bingo.
Speaker 8 (03:22):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
I have a list of all the birds that are
native to our area or come to us, and then
you when you see one, you cross it off and
you're like, whoa, I finally spotted one of those, or
I spotted one of those, and it's just fun to
like look at a chart and match the birds.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
That doesn't mean like bird watching.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
You have no interest in birds, but now you like it.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Always liked birds?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
But yes, well, so the question is what's something you
didn't like and now you like?
Speaker 5 (03:44):
Oh okay, I just never saw myself liking bird watching,
So can.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
I say I didn't like that's good?
Speaker 5 (03:49):
I would see people bird watch like I'd go run
the hike and bikes so stupid.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I wish they'd died.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Yeah, yeah, it's time for the male You.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Friends of mail and he's reading all the air if
something we call Bobby and mail bag.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Yeah, hello, Bobby bones. I have been married for two years.
I still don't have a relationship with my father in law,
but I'd like to be closer with him. I've made
efforts to get to know him and spend quality time
together one on one, but we still feel like strangers.
He can be a little shut off. We don't have
many things in common. I've even made the effort to
do the things that he likes, even though they're not
(04:28):
things that I like, like sports or hunting or golf.
Seems like you'd rather just do them alone than with me.
What advice would you have on getting closer to him?
Have you bonded with your father in law? Signed lost
son in law? For me, it was I won't say easy,
because it's always awkward at first. It's due to dude,
And it's also a dude that is the dad of
(04:48):
your girl, and you know what you're doing with your girl.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
He also knows who's doing with so that's the whole situation.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
But I'm very lucky that my father in law is
a die hard sports fan, and that is I mean,
we text constantly about sports, which then since you have
an open dialogue, it allows for other things to pop
in and not to be weird. So I just don't
text about nowhere and be like, hey, I know I
haven't talked to you in three months, But so that
never happens. It's always with us Oklahoma football and recruiting
(05:18):
Arkansas football and recruiting basketball, softball, sports sports.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Sports.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Again, same reason that I think fantasy football is great
for dudes to play because it keeps like an open
communication between all of us, and so while you're communicating,
you're also free to add other live stuff as well,
because I'm not just gonna call up Ray and be like, hey.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Man, look i've been feeling kind of sad lately. I
wish guys did that.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Mostly we don't, but if Ry and I were playing
fantas football together and I'm like, yeah, man, not only
did Patrick Mahomes not score, I needed two touchdowns? This
has a crap at Homes got me down too. So
it's like in the race, like, really, what's going on?
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Is that's it? That's how guys are interesting? What's up?
Speaker 6 (05:58):
No, it's interesting I mean, yeah, we're that studd that
we have to like have sports to talk real.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
Life, Like I just call a friend. I'm like, we don't.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
We don't do that because we're cavemen and we're embarrassed
to have any sort of feeling or emotion. Now back
to your problem. You have got to find you got
to find what you have in common. Otherwise it's just
gonna always feel clunky, and it's gonna feel like you're
always forcing it.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
And that's okay. Maybe that's just the relationship.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Sometimes there's only nothing to bond over and you disagree
to be there.
Speaker 6 (06:29):
If you need each other, there's always something because like
my father in law, like he's in antiques. I don't
like antiques, but man, once I hit him with those
antique questions, he went off, and that's that's what we like,
really bonded.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
So I like the effort of trying the things that
he loves, but you're never gonna stay committed to it,
and it'd be authentic if.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
You don't as well.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
So I would encourage you to just try to find
other things that he likes or other things that have
happened in his life that you also. It's just having
something in common, that's it, and from that everything else
can happen. So that's my advice to you find it. It's there.
It may not be something huge, but it's there. And
if you can find that common thread, then all the
other stuff can come on top of it. That's what
(07:09):
I have to say. And you want to give me advising, Well, yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
I mean I think also too with your father in
law Bobby, like he's just a yeah, y'all have sports,
but he's like just a cool, nice, warm, once to
be connected guy.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
So I don't know.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
I'm struggling because what I hear is some some men
just don't want to connect. So I also think he
might need to be realistic and that sometimes it just
doesn't work. Just be patient because it sounds like he
could be a personality that's more shut off and not
willing to give you the time you need for this
type of relationship.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
But patience because people can change.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Anybody. Everybody has something that they're passion. Just find there
is something there. You just got to dig in, keep digging,
keep digging. You'll find it.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Good luck.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
It's a very common thing. I'll talk about a lot,
but you know what, we'll talk about it here where.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
We have to break the ice with Patrick Mahomes first.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Yeah, so that's the thing, right, I just need it
four more points in my fantasy.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
What's aout? My prosty's killing?
Speaker 4 (08:03):
We got your mail and.
Speaker 9 (08:05):
On your air Now it's side the clothes.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Bobby failed.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
All right, Uber Lift, you got your phone, you hit
the app. I'm right here, pick me up. They pick
you up, fam boom.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
Well, there's a new version of this. Have you guys
heard of Black Wolf?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
No, that'll sound good.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Black Wolf is different because whoever picks you up has
a gun.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
And what do they do with that?
Speaker 8 (08:30):
Mate?
Speaker 2 (08:30):
I guess make sure you don't get any crap.
Speaker 10 (08:32):
Okay, security or they they don't rob you. Okay, that's
a bad business. Yeah that that thing would last five seconds.
So that's basically what it is. It's a right sheering
app to compete with Uber and Lyft. It's been launching
Atlanta and New York and the drive. Every vehicle have
a gun bunchbox.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
This is bowler like.
Speaker 6 (08:52):
This is what you want when you're like rich and famous,
You have security with guns.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
It's being sold as executive protection for people who are
worried about their personal safety.
Speaker 7 (09:00):
Yeah, I don't ever hear stories about people robbing the
Uber and Lyft driver with people in it.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
I feel I hear the I don't, I don't. I
don't like it.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Drivers need to pass the backgrounds check and trained to
de escalate any situation if a confrontation should occur on
the road. The guy that started it worked as a
private investigator in a bodyguard and claims that many of
the drivers who work from the company come from military
and security backgrounds, and basically it is Uber left but
for protection.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
I mean the founder. He looks pretty legit.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
That stuff to him. Yeah, I'm shocked Lunchbus doesn't like this.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
I know it would be the most baller thing. Yeah,
that's from that's from cool.
Speaker 7 (09:38):
If he walked into a restaurant with me, or walked
around the casino with me. But all he's doing is
driving me to the front and dropping me off. No
one even knows that he has learned the cars that
black wolf. Yeah, that sounds kind of cool.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
He likes that. Here's another story I saw that. I'm like,
I gotta talk about this.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
This Stanford professor, which we feel like if you're a
professor of Stanford. You are there, went there, Stanford professor.
He says that he's one hundred percent believes that extraterrestrials
have not only visited Earth, but they've been here for
a long time and their price on the planet today.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Okay, I meant to say wacky too smart.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Probably don't think that's He is a professor pathology at
Stanford's Medical School. He made the stunning claim during last
week Salt Eye Connections conference. There was a whole like
session of the Pentagon Extraterrestrial UFOs.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
And he gets up and he says it.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Somebody asked him do you believe extraterrestrial life has visited Earth?
And he said, I think I can go further. It
hasn't just visited. It's been here for a long time.
It's still here. Come on, I need a black wolf
if this is true. I mean, you gotta check this.
I mean, Stanford gonna keepim on staff.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Yeah, I got fired. You did not hear that you
made that up?
Speaker 3 (10:52):
One They asked him again, that's tough to believe, and
the guy goes, no, one hundred percent And it's not
just my opinion. The National des Authorization I passed last
year signed by the President in December thirty pages of
that the establishment they know of unidentified aerial phenomena.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
You have talked about this question. I'm just saying, guys,
what are you saying.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
I'm just saying, just because you think it doesn't mean
it's right. But do you think he's right?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
I think they could be in our animals. I made
that theory up myself. You even said bottom of the ocean.
Speaker 4 (11:20):
Yeah, but would you ever say one hundred per.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
But I didn't make up to the bottom of the year.
I heard that one.
Speaker 10 (11:24):
That's the theory.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
They could have called the animals years being tiny and
now they're just living as our animals, learning everything about us.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
That's crazy. That's my theory. And if anybody else is
that crap? They stole it from mobile.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Well, whatever one took over my dog is psychotic.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
That's an alien. Yeah, you get a bad alien. Yeah,
they're like but lemon cars. They come off. I just
messed up. You got a bad one. Yeah, it's time
for the good news ready.
Speaker 6 (11:50):
Joanna Castillo is a student at Faith Family Academy in
Oak Cliffe in Dallas, Texas, and man like.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Since she started high school, she hasn't missed a single
day of school. So a local.
Speaker 6 (12:02):
Dealership, a Jeep dealership, says, you know what, we have
a program going on that if you have perfect attendance,
you get a free car.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
So Joanna now is driving car, a free car.
Speaker 6 (12:11):
Joanna's driving a twenty sixteen Jeep Patriots.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Let's go if people know about this beforehand, because nobody
would ever miss school. Yeah, I'd be dragging out with
COVID and school's not even in. I'm like, I'm still here.
Speaker 6 (12:21):
They said that they've been promoting it more to encourage
other people. She was one out of five that had
really good attendance, but she won wild you would get.
Speaker 7 (12:29):
A car car Wait wait wait, they said new car.
You said she got a twenty sixteen. That's not a
new car.
Speaker 9 (12:34):
Car.
Speaker 4 (12:34):
It's a new car to her.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
That's right, doesn't matter, it's a car. I don't know
that missed in car barely? Did you have perfect.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I might have missed a day occasionally, I don't think
all through high school, but I never missed school. I
mean that I would drag. It's like this job. Yeah,
I dragged myself in here if I have to.
Speaker 6 (12:54):
So you think Joanna like had was really sick in
the win anyway at times.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
But I'm not going to say she's you're responsible because
I don't know. I don't know the truth. But that
is great.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
That will really do her well later in life, that
she's already disciplined a condition like that.
Speaker 6 (13:08):
Yeah, so, kids, if you're listening, go to school, don't
miss a single day.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
I'd hire her right now. Well, if they're given jeep away,
nobody's missing a day ever, I know. All right, that's
a great story, and shout out to the jeep place.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
What's his name again? His name is Mark Gallas. He's
the CEO of it. But they don't say the dealership,
damn name getting the plug? Nope, Nope. Their PR team's
got to do a better job. Yeah but Mark, he's
a CEO. Al right, my ceo, Mark, Nice job, buddy.
All right, that's what it's all about. That was telling
me something good. I want to share a story with
you guys. He was a former soldier.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
He lost both legs to an ied in Afghanistan. He
just made history by scaling Mount Everest. He used special
prosthetics with spikes to help him climb, So basically his
prosthetics have kind of cleats in them, and he's also
got on for his arms too to help pull him up.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
He said he went into deep depression after the injury,
and then he.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Decided to keep living.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
He went skydiving, he got involved in Paralympic sports, He
started climbing mountains. He was the first person to climb
Everest after losing both legs above the knee. His motto
is nothing's impossible, you just have to adapt. Now he's
planning to go back to Afghanistan to the spot where
he lost his legs so he can say thank you
and it'd be some kind of closure for what he's learned.
He says he never would have climbed Everest if that
(14:23):
hadn't happened.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Quote.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Whatever happens, it happens for good if you make it good.
So this guy never made an excuse. He never made
an excuse. And I just wanted to say that because
we so many times can make excuses. We can find
ways to make things not happen. It's very easy to
find a reason to not do something. It's very easy
for us to go, well, and I'm time to do that.
(14:46):
I got this and that you're right. We are our priorities,
which leads me to go to Scuba Steve and see
how his TV show idea is coming.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Come on, because come on, come on, because I mean
all of it. But this is a deal, Scooba. Steve's like,
I have this idea for a TV show. I've been
holding it for ten years. It's a great show.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
I just don't have the time. And I say, I
say to Scooba Steve, you do. We are our priorities.
We make time for what our priorities are. So that
being said, I said, Scooba, I will give you fifteen
minutes a day on this show to or go to
my office for fifteen minutes in the middle of the
show prime time and just work on this TV idea
(15:28):
of this show, this radio show that he runs executive produce,
Like fifteen minutes.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
We'll be okay. Fifteen minutes, Scooba, how's the TV show
idea coming.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
I just got my computer back after being gone for
a week, so I've been battling that.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
No other computer.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
It's not even if you can do for your phone,
what about a pin paper?
Speaker 1 (15:45):
And I got a lot of excuses, which is funny
because I was flying to Autome last week and I
was looking for my notebook, and all week long I
kept poking at me in my backpack of my what
does this keep poking at me? It's my notebook, and
it was a sign to write in it and start
doing this TV show. And I pulled it out, got
the pen ready, and then I got sidetracked by kids.
I get sidetracked by work. That's the and I know
(16:06):
their excuses. But it's difficult to focus on one thing
when you've got seventeen other things.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Focus on it, says every human right, It's difficult because
if it were easy, everybody would be doing it.
Speaker 8 (16:18):
Yes, that's a good point.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
If it were easy, everybody would meet their goals and
we'd all be freaking eating pecans all night long, watching
niked Night and the World's awesome. It's not the World's hard.
If you want something you have to sacrifice for, it
doesn't matter what it is. Doesn't matter if you want
to be a great dad, or you want to move
up high in the industry, it doesn't matter. If you
want balance, balance is hard work. It's all sacrifice. Anything
(16:40):
you want to be great at is sacrifice. Anything you
want to to do to have done that, you're that
you're proud of it's sacrifice, and if you just don't
want to do it, that's okay. But you keep saying
you want to do it, and then you keep having
excuses or you keep prioritizing other things over it.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
I know, and I feel like those are these but
but the.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
I'm trying to stumble on my words here and give
you a clear thought. But really, life gets in the
way and you have to prioritize what's the most important,
and for me, it's family and what.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Yeah, agree, I give you fifteen minutes during this show, though.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
I'm trying to find fifteen minutes to walk away, and
I guess I have to be better at that and
I'll make it more time.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Give up the idea.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
And I'm not giving up the idea because I've held
on to it for so long and no one's done
it yet that there's a reason why, and so I
have to do it.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
But you keep saying you have to, but you're not.
I know.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
But I've never had somebody actually like yourself, give me
a hard time by not doing it.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Not give your hard time. Challenge you to be the
person that you say you are. Yes, challenge is a
better way to say it. And if you said I'm
not that person, I'm like, cool, don't worry about it.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
No, I am that person. There's always crap in the way,
there's always sacrificing.
Speaker 7 (17:44):
I mean that notebook was poking him, Man, poke me
for a week, and I didn't do anything with it.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Dude, fix you. Yeah, sounds like a new binder man.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
But I am someone that has been challenged my whole
life and had to overcome challenges and work hard at things.
Nothing was handed or given to me, so I should
I should harness that and work at this. It is
my fault for not doing it for the last several weeks,
and come tomorrow I will start working on it.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
I don't care when you start working on it. I
don't need to see the report. I just know you
and think that you want to be the person that
you say you are, and I think you are. Yeah,
And I don't want everybody to live with that attitude.
Like man, But but but sometimes you just can't do
it because it's not the priority. And if you say,
you know what, it's not the priority, I'm not gonna
do it right now. Cool, But you can't talk out
(18:31):
of both sides of your mouth. Be like, this is
the priority. I want to do it, but I also
got work.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
But here you go.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
I'm saying, take fifteen minutes, drop it, go work on
it every day so someone.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
With experience like yourself, So I can dial down and focus.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
On one thing. I've never focused on one thing, well not,
and I even just in.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
General, but on this particular project, should I focus on
the like dialing down the concept, writing the script.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
All the whole thing. I would do the concept.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
I'd work on the concept first, Okay, I'd write if
I were in an elevator with somebody for forty five seconds,
how I'd pitch it. And then I'd build it out
from there, and then I whatever you want to do. Okay,
it may take seven years fifteen minutes at.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
A time, but that's okay.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
But yes, but seven years later, when you have it
done fifteen minutes a time, you're gonna go, why didn't
I do this stupid script? Do you know the best
time to plant a tree twenty years ago? You know
the second best time today?
Speaker 2 (19:22):
That's a good question.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Tell him how to eat an elephant.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
I don't believe any elephants. So we're gonna move on
from we don't eat elephants and we don't kill them.
No African jungles are me.
Speaker 5 (19:32):
That whatever one by the time, Hey, and in addition
to everything, Bobby's saying, are you open to one more
thing maybe.
Speaker 8 (19:41):
That I have?
Speaker 5 (19:41):
Okay, this is something that's worked for me.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
It may not be for you.
Speaker 5 (19:45):
But whenever you come on and Bobby's you know, asking
you for challenging you, I can I hear over and
over the word difficult and can't find the time. And
so I think as long as you you're leaning into
that narrative. So if you keep saying that and over
over and over, you're gonna keep finding it to be difficult.
You're gonna keep getting interrupted with other things. So maybe
change that narrative of being open to the time and
(20:08):
not looking at it as so difficult, Like remove the
negative language.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Okay, this is coming from the queen of focus.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
I'm not talking about but I do do things.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Absolutely. What has he ever done? Though, now he's jumping
into it.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
We're doing We can pass this around. We passed the
beat up baton all around the room.
Speaker 8 (20:26):
We're good.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
That was beat up. It was encouraged.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
I'm talking about from lunchbox to you.
Speaker 4 (20:29):
Oh he did beat me up here.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
You don't have to do it. If you're not gonna
do it, though, poop me get off the pot. Okay,
that's what I'm saying. I am going to do it.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
I'n't changed my narrative to push myself and I.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Will thank you.
Speaker 6 (20:41):
Ignore your kids a little bit too, No, a little bit.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
You can have time here, Okay, thank you, Thank you
so Bobby.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Bones Show interviews.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
In case you didn't know, well, it's my favorite band
of all time, the Counting Crows. I never got to meet,
uh them, Derret. It's'm my whole life except for now today,
which is a big moment for me and actually Eddie's
friendship in mind where it's all been forged on Counting Crows.
That's true, if you know the truth of it. He's
a big deal. I'm not cool, everybody, you promise, no.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Cool for you. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
Let's just see what Let's see what happens here. Adam
Durret's lead singer of Counting Crows. By the way, Counting
Crows are going on the Banshee season Tour Special Guests
Dashboard Professional kicks off June thirteenth. You would know Counting
Crows from Mister Jones along December from Shrek to Accidentally
in Love. I act like that song is not my favorite,
(21:37):
but when it comes on I love it. I'm like
I don't like it comes on. I'm like, that's good,
Big yellow Taxi, Vanessa Carlton here.
Speaker 11 (21:46):
You don't know what you got to be a paradise And.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Here he is on the Bobby Bones Show.
Speaker 9 (21:53):
Now Adam Durrett's of Counting Crows.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Adam, how are you man?
Speaker 8 (21:57):
I am good. Let's turn all this off.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
Well, if it's somebody cool, you leave it on and
we'll play phone roulette, and if somebody cool calls you
can just answer it.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
Hi, Mom, how you been?
Speaker 8 (22:07):
I'm pretty good.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
You're here for a couple of reasons.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
One, I have a mount rushmore my favorite people in
the world who I haven't met, and it is David Letterman,
it is Steve Martin, It's Howard Stern and Adam Duritz.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
So three remain, but you check it off my list.
Speaker 8 (22:21):
Now I've got all those except for Steve Martin.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
You haven't met Steve Martin, now seen him?
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Mister Jones, You guys kind of imagining what fame is
like or what celebrity is, Like, how long did you
write that song before that actually happened?
Speaker 11 (22:35):
Mister Jones is from sort of the middle version of
Counting Crows. It's probably about nineteen ninety ninety one.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Was it one of those that fell out?
Speaker 8 (22:44):
Yeah? Pretty much? Really, I mean I don't know, you.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Know, well anything wrote it all that night, anything in
front in front of five hours?
Speaker 2 (22:50):
It was almost like falling out.
Speaker 11 (22:51):
Most of my songs back then were probably less than
five hours. I get really determined to just sit there
and do it until it's done.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Now, if you get famous, there's all the social media
that comes at you. And I've had different smaller ish
type events where it's just like wow. But when you
blow up in the nineties and two thousands and fame
is not able to get to you through those means.
How does fame get to you if you're always on
the road moving around.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Is it just crowds? Is it just people?
Speaker 8 (23:18):
You know, it's weird.
Speaker 11 (23:19):
We've been on the road for a while before it happened, really,
and it had been building, you know. We played Saturday
Night Live and we ended up being the top thirteen
and six and then two for the next two years,
but uh, I didn't really see you know. We were
on the road on our own for a while at
Christmas and we seem to be a kind of a
hot indie band for a little bit. And then we
(23:40):
went back to opening for Cracker and we flew back
from Europe and landed in New Orleans right before JazzFest.
And I'd been going to JazzFest for years, so I'd
spent a lot of time in New Orleans as a fan. Yeah,
I think it, yeah, because we weren't before the band. Really,
this was my first time at JazzFest after the first
record was out, and I went to the festival the
first day after we got and got mobbed. The things
(24:02):
that had been building that spring and winter had happened.
It had kind of all coalesced while we were in Europe.
I mean that the next you know, a few months
were very strange. I remember being on tour and being
in Birmingham and having a day off and deciding there
was like a movie theater about four blocks from the hotel,
and I walked down and I was watching this movie.
There's no one in the theater but me. It was weird.
(24:23):
It's like an afternoon Mattinee or something. This guy comes
walking down the aisle, walks up the row and sits
next to me, and I was like, hey, a whole
empty theater, says right now. He said, hey, I'm a
really big fan. I was like, thanks, man. He said,
do you mind if I sit here. I'm like, look,
I'm just trying to watch a movie. If you don't mind,
I just just want to watch a movie. And he
got up and left. And about forty five minutes later
(24:46):
saw a guy coming down the island, but it wasn't
the same guy. It was the guy that was working
the concession stand out there, and he said, hey, are
you in counting crows? And I said yeah, and he goes,
I don't know what's going on, but there was some
guy in here before, and for the last half hour
he's been on the payphone in the lobby calling people.
And there's a huge crowd outside. You know, if you
want to get out of here, there's like a door
(25:07):
at the bottom, like a alley exit. And I said yeah,
thanks man, and I snuck out the alley and walk
down the street and then I heard this noise behind me.
I turned around. There's this massive crowd of people out
in front of the theater and they all start running.
I ran like, I just ran down the street, got
to the hotel, like ahead of this crowd.
Speaker 8 (25:27):
It was just a little while after jazz Fest.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
You didn't even have the infrastructure to be famous, because
it all happened while you were gone. You didn't know
you landed, it's here, and you didn't have security, didn't
have anything to make sure you're even safe.
Speaker 11 (25:41):
No, never really got any of that stuff either. We
never really I had a lot of friends in bands
who had security. We never really got security out with
us or any of that stuff. It just seemed like
you could sort of avoid it.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
The Shrek song, which is how a lot of kids
would know you accidentally in love. Was that written purposefully
for that movie or was it a song that you
guys or that you had already had some what and
thought this will be right, let's you know, turn it
into that.
Speaker 11 (26:04):
How'd that come now? That was written for the movie?
I got a call about doing it. I went over
to you know, DreamWorks Amblin Spielberg studio there, and they
showed me the scene they wanted and kind of told
me the flavor. There was a Weezer song on there
originally just as a temp track. I think as soon
as I got the offer, my whole thought was, this
is exactly what I want to do.
Speaker 8 (26:24):
This is like being on a really good Disney film.
You know. I saw it.
Speaker 11 (26:27):
I thought it was fantastic, you know, and also has
a chance to you know, get new fans who are younger,
and you know, I was so excited to do that
because it'll be there forever, and I'm really proud of
the song, and I think the movie's fantastic.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
At Countingcrows Countingcrows dot Com the turf, it's almost sixty dates.
I will be at the one here. You're playing at
the opry House, which is super cool. But basically every
city we're in, you're in Countingcrows dot Com. Adam, thank
you very much.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
I appreciate that.
Speaker 8 (26:55):
Thanks you, guys.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Here's a voicemail from Alex from Montana.
Speaker 12 (27:00):
My mom and me and my kids were traveling from
Atlanta back to Mountiana and we were just walking in Tsa.
There was Amy Adams just helping your kid in Tsa.
I took Bobby's advice and because she was with her kid,
I didn't go up to her and asker for a
picture or anything. But my mom was like, hey, I'm
(27:21):
a big fan of yours, and she was just super
kind and thanked her that I just wanted to tell someone.
So I hope you guys have a great day.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Thanks. She seems like she'ld be nice. I like Amy Adams,
probably because she seems nice, no other reason.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
She seems normal and nice.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Yeah, she's like deceivingly super pretty. Really, she's so normal,
but then really she's like super pretty.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Huh.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
She like downplays it like Pam from the Office. Yeah,
like Jenni Fisher was always really pretty, but then they
had her kind of play it way down because they
had to play the secretary.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Do you guys know that? No learned? I never know
nor all Right.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Next up, this is a voicemail we got last night
about Amy our Amy.
Speaker 12 (28:00):
I heard Amy say about taking a biology final with
Sam and I'm wondering if I missed some episode, is
she going.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Back to school?
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Great question. Amy's trying to be a doctor. Yeah really, Amy,
Yeah that was your.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Kids, right.
Speaker 5 (28:15):
Yeah, So my sixteen year old had finals and we
were studying and I feel like I was about to
take an exam because I was studying so hard, I mean,
sent three hours.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
One night, and you said if they didn't do a
good job, you were going to be upset because you
put so much effort into it.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
And how they do.
Speaker 4 (28:29):
We don't have the final scores yet.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
Man, they take forever to get the white.
Speaker 4 (28:32):
You know, Bobby, what you're referring to is a paper
that I.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Wrote, Oh got it?
Speaker 4 (28:36):
How that do we wrote?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
She wrote, yeah, she wrote, she just said that wrong.
Came out wrong.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
We gotta be on that.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Even though that she's forty, so annoying.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
Amy goes back to the school and.
Speaker 4 (28:50):
I was like a bee.
Speaker 5 (28:54):
So anyway, the biology I didn't I couldn't physically go
take the test, although I am prepared.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
I know that. But you don't have the results back
for this.
Speaker 4 (29:04):
That was just yeah, we don't have them yet.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
I thank you Amy's pile of stories.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
I've got three questions you can ask yourself to avoid
buyer's remorse.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Okay, go ahead, Where will.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
I store this thing?
Speaker 8 (29:19):
Good?
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Like a kayak for example? Sometimes the table fun idea,
But then I've.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
Done that twice, not just once, twice in my life.
I bought a poll table and regretted it both times
when Arkansas Keith plays, So you're good.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
I just got rid of it. I just got rid
of it.
Speaker 4 (29:32):
You did oh I saw it was missing.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
I didn't even noticed. I gave it away.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
It's just taking a space. Andre was gonna stot it,
that's the question. Yeah twice, I did that, like I.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Did it once in my twenties.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Early twenties is like, Okay, I got a little money now,
it's pretty cool. I'm not loving paycheck to paycheck. First
thing I'm gonna do is buy a pool table. And
I did, you know, stupid. I never played at hung
clothes on it. It just became that. Then I was like,
all right, got a little space forty now and buy
me a pool table.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
Same thing. Stupid.
Speaker 5 (30:01):
Well, so these are we're talking bigger items. But they
also say that, you know, an air fryer, A lot
of people think they're great.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
It's the greatest thing ever. Buy it. Oh, it's awesome.
Don't listen to the story. You'll love it. Get an
air fryer, never look back.
Speaker 5 (30:12):
I agree, But they're saying that's another way to just evaluate, like, hey,
I have limited storage space, whatever else.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
You have away. Put the air fryer there because it
is invaluable.
Speaker 4 (30:22):
Because it's an eyesore on the counter.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Ours it's black and sleek.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Oh, well, you pull out the little handle, Okay, put
the peaches in there. Cook out those peaches, air fried
with a little parchs what we call paper under their
horsement money.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
My wife makes fish in there. I hate fish, but
not in the air fryer.
Speaker 11 (30:40):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
I mildly dislike it. Oh.
Speaker 5 (30:43):
The second question ask yourself is how will I clean
this thing? Because I mean, does it have a lot
of maintenance you need to take care of it? Is
there going to be added?
Speaker 2 (30:50):
Okay? Full table? I don't clean air fryer. I also
don't clean so easy.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
It's pretty easy though somebody's cleaning it.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Yeah, yeah, I'm not okay.
Speaker 5 (30:58):
And then the third question is what will I do
with this thing when I'm done?
Speaker 3 (31:02):
Give it away and give it away, done, sell it
because if you're gonna sell it, they're not you come
get it.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
So give it away. But it's heavy and stupid.
Speaker 4 (31:10):
Yeah, so you give it away. And how do you
even pick up a pull table?
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Strong arms? And we've been working out and me we
did it.
Speaker 5 (31:18):
So Kate met Middleton met with a bunch of kids
and drew pictures for them instead of giving them her autograph.
And this is fascinating to me. Why she couldn't give
them her autograph. It turns out the royal family isn't
allowed to sign autographs ever because then.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
People could forge their signatures.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
Wow, but what's their signature for? Like, do they ever
sign anything? Do they know how to sign their name?
Do they get a pen?
Speaker 4 (31:43):
Well that's a good point. I guess you probably don't
write checks?
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Yeah, I don't, didn't you know?
Speaker 3 (31:47):
It's like maybe you ever see the tiktoks of people
trying to figure out to skip again.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
It's a money thing where people are like, I notic
skip it. They're like, oh my god, oh I have
seen that.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Yeah, and it's people going wait, kind that's what I
feel like, give one of them a pen, like, wait,
how do.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
I sign my linken? They used to do it maybe
but not anymore. Yeah? Crazy interesting?
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Okay, Well, speaking of autographs, Garth Brooks has partnered with
a tattoo shop in Vegas where.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
They have his signature.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Boobs your boots Okay, yeah, huh.
Speaker 5 (32:20):
So he has his Las Vegas residency coming up, so
people that are going, they can go to the tattoo shop.
Speaker 4 (32:26):
It's called hypnotic tattoos.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
You have a signature at the tattoo shop and they
just do it this.
Speaker 5 (32:31):
Yeah, and Garth is in agreement with this, like, hey,
book this appointment seven twenty five hundred. They said that
they're pretty booked, but they are trying to make room
for more and like the space they've reserved for this
sold out, so everybody's getting the Garth signature tattoo.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
Thinking about Garth too, I think Ray could speak on
this as well, because it's raises like God soigners or whatever.
He doesn't sign anything unless he makes it specifically to someone, right, Yeah,
we have a guitar in our living room. It has
That's the way. Somebody can't resell it on Craigslist or Facebook, marketplace.
Anything he's ever given me, he's written directly, not that
I'm gonna sell it, but he makes a point or
someone's taking guards sign this is like I have to
(33:09):
sign it to somebody, so it's not just made for resale,
right are you guys Scottson, No, No, that sounds awesome.
My wife's really close to him, and her dad works
for Guards are yours guy, No, you should roll with that.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
Yeah, that was Amy's pile of stores.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
It's time for the good news, Bobby.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
Let's go over to the phones and talk to Doug
who lives in Nashville.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Doug, what do you have for us? Buddy?
Speaker 9 (33:37):
Hey, how you doing, Bobby Hut Studio.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
What's happening? So tell us or tell me something good?
Speaker 9 (33:42):
Okay? So, yeah, I appreciate it. So I had a friend,
uh San Diego, where I used to live, and uh,
he just notified everybody that he got diagnosed. So he
had to get rushed to the hospital with stomach pain.
Turns out he's got stage four calling cancer and like nobody,
you know, there's no to know that until you obviously
get something like that. So a friend, a mutual friend,
(34:05):
started a gofone me page to help them, you know,
like for medical senses, because he's got two kids and
his wife and he's a really funny guy who runs
a beer blog, a craft beer blog page, and he's
a funny guy. But anyway, long start short was that
he you know, they didn't know what to put down
as a fund of man, so they put down ten
thousand and they reached the fund in twelve hours and
(34:27):
then the next day it was two hundred thousand, and
I'm like, good lord, and I'm like and you know,
because you don't know how much cancer treatment's gonna cost.
You know, hopefully he pulls through and everything's going to
be all right. But I just thought it was like wow,
like in two days, two hundred thousand like that, and
that's just from people across the country that knew his
(34:49):
you know, craft beard blog page and things like that.
I'm like, wow, like that's that's a huge you.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Know, yeah, I God, that's how I got known, like
how it got went viral in But if you had
that's a lot of money for any GoFundMe. And in
two days, that's a lot of people giving up their
money so this dude can have a shot.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
That's awesome. Doug. How's do you know how he's doing? Now?
Speaker 9 (35:12):
Yeah? No, well, I mean it's it's day to day,
so I keep I keep checking in with them, but
you know, until the treatment starts and all that like
literally just fine, you know, getting you know, in a week,
that's just it's just scary to me as a guy
that's o't oliver her too. And I'm like good Lord,
Like really, that's just anyway, So uh yeah, I just
(35:33):
I wish for the best and I hope everything's going
to be our Thanks for letting me share it, and uh,
you guys are awesome. I love your show man.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Thanks man.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
I appreciate that story. And you know, I think stress
can also help or hurt things, as in, if you
don't have stress, it can help it. If you do
have a lot of stress, I can hurt it. And
if you're going through something like that and you're stressed
out because of finances, it ain't helping it. You're like,
I'm going through this, I have cancer, I don't know
what I'm gonna do, and I don't have the money
to pay for. That's going to only amplify it. So
(36:02):
shout out everybody who doing it. That's a really great
story that I love it. When callers call in and
tell us something good, that's what it's all about.
Speaker 2 (36:08):
That was telling me something good.
