And welcome to Backstage Pass. Iam Austin James and I have a lot
of information to go through with you, and again I appreciate you listening,
especially the military overseas. We havea lot of listeners and military basis across
the world, so we appreciate youlistening to Backstage Pass. So here's a
(00:36):
bit of entertainment news for you beforewe get to some features and some bits.
Two years after The Announcers split tothe world, Lisa Bonnet actress Lisa
Bonney has filed for divorce from alister, Jason Momoa well you know him
as Aquaman. Well. The formerCosby Show star has filed court docs that
(00:57):
listed their official split date all theway back to two thousand and According to
the papers, Bonnet is asking forjoint custody of their two children, and
neither side is asking for spousal support. That's according to TMZ Now. According
to People, three months after thenews broke that Maren Morris and Ryan Hurd
were divorcing, a settlement has beenreached, while the finalization is pending a
(01:19):
judge's approval. The pair have agreedon how they would parent their son,
Hayes, and it was agreed thatMaren Morris would pay herd Ryan heard twenty
one hundred dollars in monthly child support. Now, this is the first time
I've ever heard of a female payinga male child support every month. But
the pair met in twenty thirteen,way back when I guess they knew each
(01:42):
other's idiosyncrasies, and they married intwenty seventeen, but Maren Morris filed for
divorce on October second of that lastyear, claiming irreconcilable differences, according to
People magazine. Now, we toldyou last week that Joe Bonsel of the
Oakridge Boys was retiring due to abunch of health issues that made it impossible
(02:02):
for him to continue touring with theOakridge Boys. Now, of course we
hear that a lot of bad individualsare looking to well possibly capitalize on the
situation. Oakreage Boys management team tweeteda message that Joe Bonseil shared warning fans
that some folks out there posing asJoe Bonzil was reaching out to other fans
(02:25):
and other people that loved the OakreageBoys, and he said to be wary
of impostors. Joe Bonzil says,watch out. People are trying to use
his good name to cheat a lotof people a lot of money, and
that, of course is according toAmerican songwriter Now. According to Whiskey Riff,
(02:45):
Zach Bryan is not only about creatinga country career for himself, he's
helping unknown and little known artists geta leg up. Zach is something called
belting Bronco. Have you heard aboutthis? Well, he drives around in
his bronco around Oklahoma. He lovesthat and he records musicians playing in the
(03:06):
back of his vehicle and with hisof course his big fan base. A
spot on belting Bronco is going tobe huge for an up and coming singer.
Sunday he posted his latest episode featuringcountry newcomer Noline Hoffman, so you
ought to check that out now.Of course, we were talking about different
things on the show, like well, if you had a teenage crush,
(03:31):
or what does your significant other dothat really bothers you? But you don't
worry about that certain little habit becauseyou love him so much. Danny,
what's your story? Nonverbal communication?I'm super big on verbal communication and talking
and like if you need something,saying that you need something. But sometimes
(03:52):
if it's been a long day.I'll just kind of get gestures and I
know what the gestures mean, andso I deal with them. But it
does get on my nerves. Yeah, I would see that. If you
want something, to ask for it. Yeah. True. Always always have
open communication. Well, I guessthat also applies to the White House.
Did y'all hear about this? PresidentBiden was reportedly unaware days that Secretary of
(04:17):
Defense Lloyd Austin was hospitalized. Canyou believe that? Well, check out
a little bit from that story.Hi, folks, as President Biden,

had no idea that were sick andin the hospital and you want to let
them know you're sorry that they're sickor in the hospital and give them the
Joe Biden get well Soon talking greetingcard. Man, I love it.

with one hundred times more plastic thanany other water, and that's plastic springs
(06:03):
bottled water. Yep. This watercomes from lakes, rivers and streams,
flows into our factory and gets packedfull of big haunks of plastic, just
the way you like it. Mykids just love plastic springs bottled water,

(06:46):
nasty to me. So, Elizabeth, what annoying thing about your significant other
do you put up with because yousimply love them so much? Chewing gum
because he's quitting vaping, Yeah,whole thing. Well, he's quitting vaping
by chewing gum. So one.You know a lot of people say that
(07:06):
vaping is kind of dangerous, Sochewing gum, I guess, is a
good habit to have to get youoff of vaping. But I also hear
that chewing gum a lot kind ofmakes your enamel hunt on your teeth.
Of course I don't know. Thatmight be an old wives deeale who knows.
