Speaker 4 (01:39):
Yeah, lots of effort this morning. All right.
Speaker 5 (01:43):
Tyler from Kentucky wants to know when you're getting when
we are not you, when we are getting more scream
o content whenever.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
They want it.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
That people want it.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Entucky is a yes, So it sounds like they want it.
There's one I guess you got to be a little
more vocal about it and let them know by then
me and the show, and you want more of it
because I'm down to bring it like a scream o game,
like where like we'd scream lyrics and you have to
guess it. Me just doing more scream of songs? I
could do that too.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
I was gonna say, do you have any interest in
pursuing like a scream of song kind of like we
have Abby who just did her original song?
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Yeah, do you have any interest.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
In doing an original scream of song and putting it out?
Speaker 1 (02:21):
It'd be fun. Again, it comes down to I think
this is my overarching theme, is my schedule and time
and trying to fit everything in, and I would love
to do my own original song. At the moment, It's
much easier to take something that already exists and it
exactly or amplify would already like with the Hardy song,
for example, like it already had the elements of a
(02:42):
harder part at the end right there, and I'm like, oh,
it just add a little screaming to it to kind
of amplify it. That's much easier than having to like
start from ground one and write the music and write
the lyrics and then go record it and record it
and then I'm a perfectionist, so I'll be in there
all day long, all week long, all month long on
one damn thing. So it's like I would to do it, yes,
but this is like I guess my dipping my toes
(03:02):
in the water off starting it by doing this version
of it.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
That's fair, and it doesn't probably rank very high on
your important list at this moment in your life.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
No, because it's really fun and I enjoy it, but
it's not something, yes that I would. I need to
focus on so much right now. I will probably do
another one before the end of the year. I was
thinking about doing something with Jelly Roll or like Brandley Gilbert,
something of that already that space, Oh yeah, we're going,
we're going really weird and finding something like Landy Wilson
and the screaming with Laney Wilson.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
That could be strange, but I love it.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I guess anyone has any suggestions too,
I guess let Morgan.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Know, Yeah, let me know.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Scoop up in the DMS, not that he's probably very
great about checking.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Him wow, Not that he's pretty great at checking him.
He basically said he sucks at checking his DM more.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
I imagine that you're not because your dad.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Yes, that's where myside thousand percent correct.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
But I don't know if like someone had also told you,
and the question answers like Stephen never responds to his DMS.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
That's more of an a sumption of being someone who
utilizes social media.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
It's my job to understand.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
That you know what demographics are. My demographic doesn't check
DMS very often.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
Yeah, I guess, yeah, yeah, yeah, hit either one.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yeah, hit me with your best shot.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Ashley from Tennessee do you regret the vosectomy?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I do have some moments when I see larger families
and I'm like, oh, it'd be so cool to at
least have the option to have the fourth child. I
guess that's the one thing is you you take away
an option, it's always the grasses greener type effect, and
it never is greener. So that's how I've coped with it.
I'm like, you always take you on more. You think
you want something different than everything, but whatever you have, right,
now in front of you. Is in that aspect. I
(04:38):
guess it's just fine.
Speaker 5 (04:42):
I think his answer is yes, and he's scared to
say it.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, I mean I guess like
with any decision you make, there's parts of you that
look back on and go, crap, Yeah, I wish what
would have been like if I didn't go through it,
or I did, or I went the other route or
the other direction. So there's always going to be that
loom being thing of like what if I wanted a
fourth kid, or like whenever one of my kids is
like oh, you know, they'll make a comment about another
sibling or a brother or something, and I go, oh,
(05:07):
that's never gonna happen because because it just can't happen
anymore right now.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
The dreaded what ifs. Although technically can't you reverse the pcomy?
Speaker 1 (05:15):
You can, but it's not successful like the percentage of
the success rate, and also with how much pain you'll
go through reversing it. For me, it's just not worth it,
got it? They would tell me that it's especially the
longer you wait, the less likely the factory. As you
put it, my doctor will restart back up. He goes,
if you do within the first six months or so,
(05:36):
there's a pretty good chance you'll the surgery won't hurt
as much. You can get it back in gear. He's like,
but you hit a year, two years, three years, he goes,
it's almost like you can't do it. But it's like
ten percent, fifteen percent odds.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
What about a possibility of adoption? Is there any of
that conversation?
Speaker 1 (05:52):
There is, Yeah, because I even thought about that a
long time ago, when when we were first getting together
of like, hey, there's so many kids here in America
that are like just don't have a support they don't
have the family. Something happens like with Eddie for example.
You know he had that I don't know if it
was a friend of his or someone he knew. I
forget the connection because I wasn't here during that process,
but I know that he had someone that he knew,
or there was a connection, or or they got involved
(06:13):
in a foster Do you know what it was?
Speaker 5 (06:15):
His wife was the one who really wanted them to foster. No,
I'm not sure where that came from for her, but
she was the reason that they started fostering.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Gotcha, Okay, So and it turned into what they have
now where they adopted the kids. But yeah, it was
one of those things where you know, the kids had
a mother that was hooked on something, and we have
that's a huge problem in America, especially with what's the.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
One that I was on now, ozempic.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
No, no zempic. That's where you lose weight or diabeas now,
so the thing's super dangerous. If you're on the zebic
right now, I'm not judging you, but please consider stopping
it because it is a huge effing problem. I'm worried
about the long term effects that we don't know about
because it's so short. That's a product that I guarantee
(06:59):
you in three to four years, a lawyer will pop
up on your screen and say, did you take a
zembic in twenty twenty four? Call now to get your
law Morgan and Morgan for the people circle back, I know,
I know, circle back. So we were talking about oh,
oh oh, what's it called? Not profofol, Well, it's not
that Mac Miller died from and a lot of Jilly
(07:19):
Roll's friends died and Struggle Jennings friends died from it.
Oh my god, are you ef FFing kidding me?
Speaker 4 (07:25):
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (07:26):
I'm not super familiar with Struggus, fentanylt.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
It got fentanyl. There's a huge fentanyl epidemic, so there's
a lot of people that are now being affected by that.
There's going to be a ripple effect from it. There
are like Jelly Rolls, Jilly Rowl, and Struggle Jennings I
think alone have lost thirty forty people from fentanyl. So
think about all those people and if they had kids,
and if their family is also addicted. So that makes
my point is the foster system is probably flooded with
kids with this most recent epidemic, and then you had
(07:51):
the pandemic people dying from that or getting sick or
can't afford children anymore. So to answer your question in
a very long form answer, not keeping us.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
The twenty minutes from to ozimpic to fentanyl and I'm
not sure what's happening anymore.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
I know where I'm following the circle. We just came
right back around to. I bet the foster system is
probably flooded. To answer question about adopting children, I.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Had to give you a hard time because we were
on a we did.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
We did, we did, But you know, I'm really good
at I can bring it right, bring it around.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Answer your question.
Speaker 5 (08:29):
Actually he does regret them.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Yes, I could see myself fostering children a long source short.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
Yes, love it.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
Okay, we're going to break and we'll be right back.
All right, Brandy, she did not put where she's from.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
I'm sorry, but she did put her name.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
That's fine, Brandy, least put your name.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
She did.
Speaker 5 (08:50):
She wants to know your best parenting advice.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Wow, I think it's what I've learned, is I guess?
I'll give you two answers. One answer is not to
be judgmental against other parents unless they're doing something that's
completely unsafe. Then you're like, oh, then you need to
be judgmental and probably step in in some way. But
if like, but parenting styles in the way some things
are or what they let some kids get away with
(09:14):
and some kids and how certain kids act. I've noticed
with having kids in three different personalities that having perspective
on it, you can you should never judge another parent
where someone's like, oh I could never do that, or
I would never do that, or they shouldn't do like
the whole thing of judging parents like it is what
you don't know what they're going through, and you don't
know how that kid is like or what their things take.
(09:37):
You just don't know. So my point is, never judge
another parent.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
Love that great advice.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Disclamor less are being dangerous.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Okay, yes that was your part one.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Was part one too. Then my part two would be
my advice about parenting, like with the kids that side.
So when I want to give advice to parents, don't
judge with the parents. It's not cool because we've all
been there where we're like, we have the best day
and then someone catches you on day seven and it's
the worst day and they're like, Wow, what a terrible parent,
they can't get their kids in line whatever. It's like, no, no,
they were good for six days, and so are we.
(10:06):
You just caught the worst moment, like either they're hungry
or they have to go pee, or they're tired or whatever.
The situation is. Never judge another parent, super important. It's
not worth it.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
Yeah. I don't think you should judge other people in
general in general.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But parenting I've noticed in that space they are judgmental
on another level.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
Yeah, I think that's the time we're at in society.
We're just judgmental across the board.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Yes, so get people grace. Give people grace, you know,
I like it. Give people grace. You don't know what
they're going through, and if anything, help them out. I
feel like they need some help help them versus hurt them.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Love it.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Yes. Part two, Yes, And I did that one first
to try to stall and give me an idea of
part two. Part two. I just put myself up for
a part two that's okay, well no, but not I
have one now because I challenge myself within a conversation.
I then came up with a part two. And actually,
to be honest with you, I didn't have a part two,
and I said I had a Part two was lying.
I was stalling even more to figure out all My
(11:02):
Part two.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Was you're hurt my brain and now I haven't.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
Are we sure?
Speaker 1 (11:07):
No? So what's gonna happen is I'm just gonna say
something and that's gonna be my advice.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
Why we go, Honger, It's been the twenty minute threshold.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
I know, I know.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
So if you don't have something, just say IM porkin.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
No, I don't have another thing, but.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Morgan, I want to say thank you so much for
buying me more time to think of another idea that
I still haven't come up. He is also give your
kids grace because leading into like not knowing what they're doing.
I've noticed that my kids are usually one of three things.
They have to go pee, they're hungry, or they're tired.
And one thing that I've noticed when trying to get
(11:39):
their attention, yelling never works. It didn't work for me.
It always put a pit in my stomach. Here my
parents yell because they argued a lot, so it's a
different kind of yelling. And when they yelled at me,
it was like an angry from the depths of their soul,
I hate you kind of yell and you're like, oh
my god. So when you yell, you're not going to
get the attention of your kid. Never. It ain't gonna happen.
So what I have to do is I have to
get on my knee and get at their level so
(12:00):
they're not infuriated of me. Because when you stand there,
you're six foot tall. They're looking at but you they're like,
you know, three feet tall, and they just feel no
matter what if your voice changes to a stern tone,
that's how.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
I feel all the time, but go on, oh.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Yeah, I get you're short. Yeah, maybe actually get that
on my knee. I'm not gonna propose you, but I'm
just gonna be getting to eye to eye to you
so we can have a conversation. You don't feel inferior.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
Yeah that's weird, but yeah I can.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
I can relate to the kiddos.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
So I get on a knee or get at their level,
like crouch on whatever, and then i have the eye
to eye conversation and I'm like, yo, look what's wrong
with you? Are you okay? I'm like, do you have
to go potty? No? Are you hungry?
Speaker 5 (12:35):
No?
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Are you tired? And then I get my hug and
you're like, yeah, I'm tired. And I get my hug,
and I'll pick them up and I'll hold them and
I'll kind of like just like rock with them a
little bit and like try to console them and just
I've noticed that that is as much as my parenting
and the parenting before that would be like you're a woos,
but I've noticed that actually works better with humans is
the connectivity and the touch and the communication. It's huge.
(12:57):
You'll see such a and then you'll see a difference
in your kids life because then they become more secure
in their relationship with you and other relationships because because
you were more hands on with them and you broke
down the barrier and didn't do what your parents and
previous generations did, and you kind of just treated them
like another human because you wouldn't want to be streamed
and yelled at or or talk to or whatever. It's
(13:18):
better to just grab that attention that way. So I
get on the knee and talk to them, and if
I have to compee, I'm like, oh, it's a good
potti right now, Like it's all good. Just next time,
trying to use your words and let me know what's wrong.
They're still not going to every time, but when you
get on that level, then they're more willing to open
up and speak to you and give you what you want.
And then you do whatever one of those three things
in or the wildcard four. They're like, well, I want
gummy beers. You're all right, whatever, gummy bears. Who cares
(13:41):
like it doesn't really matter. Give a pack of gummy bears.
So you have that sanity for the next two to
three hours. And once you do whatever one of those
three or four things is then you're completely fine, then
life is easier, and then you go on with the
rest of your day and then you tackle the next problem.
So that'd be my advice. I like it, so I
came up with it. I knew I just had.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
To find something, give grace and be on your knees.
Got it exactly? From California. Wow, that sounds at all furnace.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
If I summed it up, that.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Would be that'd be it. Yeah, totally get down on one knee.
Speaker 4 (14:10):
And intentional will be taken another way that you were going.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
No, you were going that way. I wasn't you left?
I left your laugh.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
I giggled as it came out of my mouth. As
I was summarized, I realized, yeah, m hmm. Anyways, from California.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
I would like to know how you proposed to your wife.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
How Emily from California? Ship were in California. It's a
pretty big state. Oh sorry, Emi, what city girl? All right?
Speaker 5 (14:32):
But anyways, I didn't know they needed to have city.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Now, we'd be nice that they would tell me geographically
where they're at. The State's fine, but I want to
know where from the state, because then we may have
a connection.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
Here told you guys. He was sassy, like.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
She's like, oh, San Francisco, Oh my god, I can
tell you about this and you'll know, Emily because you
live in San Francisco, or like, oh, I'm in Baker's Field.
Oh the story I'm going to tell you it's actually anyways,
so it happened in San Francisco. The first date that
my wife and I had was at this place called
Tunnel Top Bar. It was like two blocks from my apartment.
It's on the corner of Stockton, right at the end
into the Stockton Tunnel and I think it's I forget
(15:02):
post maybe maybe Anyways, Tunnel Top Bar. That was where
our first day was, where we first met, where we
had like a six hour conversation and like three or
four drinks and just kind of laid our hearts out
and explained everything. He fell in love, fell in love
almost immediately. I did, at least, but her maybe it
took a couple of dates. But so when I went
to propose to her, what I did was, of course,
I went to her family, went to her mom and
(15:24):
her sister and her brother. That's like her immediate family,
doesn't her father's not here. If you want to know
about that. Listen to other episodes.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
Yeah, we've talked about it before.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Yeah. So so I went to them and I was like, hey,
here's my plan. I want to propose to your daughter
slash sister, and this is my whole thing. And I
kind of like, poor, I won't give you the whole things.
We're trying to keep this twenty minutes. But I talked
to them and gave my best intentions, my everything, and
my compare like everything that I wanted to tell them,
I gave it to him. And they were so receptive
and they were so happy, and they were and they
(15:53):
wanted to do whatever they could to help me out
in this process. And I was like, all right, so
here's my plan. So I want to do this at
the place we met, Tunnel Top Bar, but I want
you guys to be there as well, but I don't
want you to be there until we do the moment.
I want to be a surprise. So she just thinks
we're going to the city and grabbing drinks and that's it.
She has no idea. We're just because we do that often,
we would go to the city and do that. So
(16:15):
we're like, we're going to a ton of Top Bar,
and maybe she called. I never asked her if she
if it, if it clewed her in because we're going
to that spot because we hadn't been there since our
first date. So maybe if she's pretty smart, she probably like, oh,
he's never proposing to me. It's gonna happ right now,
it's totally happened.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
Oh yeah, she knew.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Yeah, I get her because she's super smart and very intuitive.
She must have been. She may have been feeling it.
I don't know. I never asked that's a good question
to ask her. I just came up with myself.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Yeah, and I will get you follow up.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Yes, so yes, so yeah with top Bar. And then
we come in. And I also I emailed the guy
in advance and I say, hey, I'm coming in, and
I told I sent him for my work email, which
was I worked for the JV show at the time,
while then four nine like the biggest morning show, the
biggest station in the Bay, and so I had a
little bit of cloud and I was like, hey, man,
I met my wife here, you know, one of my wife.
(17:04):
I met my girl here like a year ago. It
was a year and a half, a year maybe two
years ago. I said Hey, I want to propose to
her here at the bar. You know, is there a
way I can come in there, like right before you
guys open or or something like that, Like I don't
want to be crowded. He's like, yeah, man, no problem,
of course, and so we set it up. I call
him and I want him to play a song. Hunter
(17:25):
Hayes is the song because that happened to be playing. Yeah,
it happened to be playing when we first walked into
the bar.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
I wanted I think, yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Make you feel wanted. Yeah, So that song was playing
right when we walked into the bar, either when we
walked into the bar, or we were leaving, or maybe
there's a moment where I was playing and I was like,
I think it was. I was like, oh, I love
this girl and that song was on. We talked about
that song a little bit and then so so I
was like, Okay, I want you to play the song
when we walk in and then we're just gonna grab
a drink. We're gonna go upstairs because again, no problem.
So we get there. It's not even so maybe she
(17:54):
knew because like it was like twelve o'clock, bar open
is like four.
Speaker 5 (17:58):
She might have gotten the realization as you guys arrived
and that's happening.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
And I had them get there before us, and they
got there and they hid like somewhere like in the
back area. So the guy who owns the bar was
very instrumental in a major part in this and was
so helpful. And so we did all that. We get
in the bar. Song comes on. She's like what I
was like, and we grab drinks the similar drinks. I
had no old fashion. She had her vodka one and tonic
with lime, kind of one voka tonic and line.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
I like the listening details right, scuba steep yees.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
So I had our drinks. We go upstairs, the songs playing,
and we're just kind of reminiscing for a moment, and
I was just kind of like, get down on one
knee and I just professed my love for her and
my intentions, and she's like, and she's just on cloud
nine ride at that moment. Her mom comes up and
her brother and her sister, and then she's even more like,
oh my god, and they get pictures and stuff, and
then we propose, and I propose, and then then we're off.
(18:49):
We're off to the races, and yeah, you can see
that picture that day. It's on my Instagram. You just
gotta go down a little bit Scooba Steeve Radio.
Speaker 5 (18:57):
But the day, like, is there a picture of you
proposing or is it after the proposal?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
I believe it picture of the proposal, but for sure
after the proposal it is a picture of her, like's
the ring and a picture in front of tunnel top bar.
Speaker 5 (19:08):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Yeah, it was a really cool moment. It was really
special and it was just there was nothing that was
difficult about it. It was super smooth and easy and it
was the only nervous part was was getting the hand
in marry, like asking for hand in marriage, Like I
know they would say yes, but it's just really nerve
wracking going to someone and saying, hey, I want to
marry your daughter, or hey I want to marry your sister.
I know she means everything to you, and but now
(19:28):
I'm taking over kind of that's just a lot because
I have daughters now and I'd have a really hard
time allowing that myself.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
Yeah, well, it's it's just an emotional like transition of
time and somebody really where that emotion is coming from,
letting go and a new beginning.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Yeah, okay, that was super.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Sank you Emily from California. We don't know where in California,
but you just had.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Lunchbox.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
I just kidding, I'm nailing the coffin.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
That is like so shoved in.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
You can't pull it back, you can't know it's there.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
Okay, we'll be right back.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your story.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
No problem, all.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
Right, we got Lauren from Virginia. Don't yell at our
No city wants to know your highlight of your time
on the Bobby Bone Show so far.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
I was trying to try to do lightning around with
these and you can still do it. I'll leave you, Okay.
My greatest time with the show would definitely have to
be when Eddie and I did the walk from West
Virginia to Tennessee. That was such a unique experience because
I've done a lot of things in the studio with
guests and bits in the show with different shows that
I've worked for and worked with, But that was so
(20:35):
cool because we were out, we were not in the studio.
It was it was an unknown thing. It was planned,
but also we're kind of making it up as we go. Yeah,
like it was it winging it, But we did it.
We made it happen. There was a good cause behind
it. It was a charity element. It was cool to see
Eddie pushing himself no matter it was pretty difficult, like
seeing him walk and then he's bleeding and all kinds
(20:56):
of crazy stuff. And then we're running into listeners and
and program directors. Family members were out there and came
and visited us. Tommy Chuck's parents from Virginia. They came
out like it was just a really cool neat experience.
And then Rod and Gator met up with us who
work here with the company that are higher ups. They
met us midway through and then and then it was
just it was such a cool experience. And there's a
million and one stories from it, but just the whole
(21:18):
thing was just such. It was unique and nothing like it.
I think nothing will ever top that, at least in
my career as far as doing something with a show
like that was so so cool.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
Yeah, and the charity tie and the profound impact of
that definitely helps the impact I bet it had on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Oh yeah, definitely. Yeah. And then you talked about earlier
the foster kids and all that. It's just like, this
money is going towards something huge. It's going to help
a lot of kids and a lot of families, and
a lot of kids get into families. It's like, this
is and we raised close to I think it was
a quarter million dollars. It was like two fifty six
or three hundred thousand. I was like, and our goal
was I think just ten thousand. That was unbelievable. Yeah,
it was really really cool. And then also to see America,
(21:56):
speaking of Virginia, we saw Westterroat. I mean, he saw
places I'd never seen before, driving through roads that I
would never ever touch, and it was it was really cool.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
I love that, really cool.
Speaker 5 (22:05):
Patty is concerned with you doing the iHeartRadio nineties show. Well,
she wants to know what'll make me leave the Bobby
Bone Show.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Patty is concerned. Well, Patty, you have no concerns because
I don't even know. I don't know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
You have no concerns.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
How there you be concerned with my choices? I know,
I know, I know I have no idea what the
future holds true. All I know is that it's something
that I wanted to do and I asked to have
my own thing, and then I and it worked out.
I'm not sure what the long term thing is, at
least in the company's eyes, but it's something fun for
me to do. I used to do it in Bakersfield
(22:39):
when I was doing Ryan Seacrush show as his executive producer.
I'd get there early in the morning and i'd record
that midday show for a Bakersfield station, which is funny
because I used to go up against not really hope against,
but you know, Bret Michaels from who's one of our
affiliates in Bakersfield.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
Brent.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Oh, I love Bret. It's amazing. So I knew him
before even all this because he was in that market
and he was a staple and so I knew who
he was because I did my research on it and
I went to Bakersfield and was a part of it
and immersed myself in it, and I was like, oh,
I'm going up against Brent Michaels, and and then this
whole thing came up and I was like, oh my gosh,
Brent Michaels, like our past kept crossing. So that's a
really cool and special relationship. And I'm going off on
(23:15):
a tangent and dang it, we're not doing lightning round.
But my point was I did Middays for about three
or four years and I and I was really really
I had a really good time with it and I
did really well, Like the social numbers were the highest
they'd ever been. I really I had increased that engagement
on Facebook and Instagram and Twitter. And then the show
it was just a midday show, but I was doing
it kind of the morning show a light that it
did so well that it had to it created some
(23:38):
changes in that station, and I won't get in all
the weeds of it, but it was really cool and
it was fun. And then when I came here, I
couldn't do it anymore because this was a new job.
It was this was like this is ultra full time
and I needed to make sure that I was successful
at this, and so I was, I don't have any
free time for anything. I had to fully fully dedicate
myself to this. And then the COVID pandemic happened, which
(23:58):
meant I even had to you know more so I
just had to walk away from it. But now that
it's back, it's great and I'm enjoying it. That's that's
where it is right now. That's that's all. I'm not
looking for anything at the moment. If she's worried about that.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
I'm continuing exploring different opportunities and thriving because stagnant is
no fun exactly.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
And why not there's an opportunity and why not jump
on it exactly? Box you're gonna burnt out? La da da.
It's not about the money, it's not about anything. It's
about me having my own thing that is for me.
Like you have this, this is your thing. It's like
your creative out. It's your piece of you, and it's
nice to have that outside of something else. Like like
Bobby's even said to himself, he's like, I'd be hypocrite
(24:38):
if I said you shouldn't pursue something like this, because
he's like, I do ten million other things.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
Yeah, it gives me your individuality exactly.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
So so yes, thank you for being concerned, but gop and.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Lastly, yeah, this you can do lining around. I believe
in you. Your best career advice from Kate in Indiana.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Dang girl, Kate in Indiana not a city, but I
will say you're from Indianapolis, Indiana or Fort Wayne, No,
Fort Wayne because our boy Randy. Yeah, Fort Wayne and
Randy was up dude anyway, So as if he's even.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Listening, I don't think it all right.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
My best career advice, I would say is jump, and
I learned that from Steve Harvey. I was watching one
of these things that were posted on TikTok.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
Oh my god, but you're on TikTok.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
I know, but I don't even really do anything with it.
Speaker 4 (25:21):
Yeah, that last one day on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
Like maybe he was like fifteen years ago and he
was doing one of those things. He was hosting a
show and in between takes a lot of times sometimes
the whost will come over and say, hey, studio audience,
so thanks for being here, and they'll do they may
just like just show appreciation. If they're a comedian, they
may tell a joke like Steve Harvey, but he always
does motivational things in between takes when he has a moment,
and one of the ones was he's like, you gotta jump.
(25:44):
He's like, if you don't jump, he goes, you'll never know.
He's like, he goes, sure, he goes, if you jump.
It was a little bit longer. I'm trying to paraphrase it.
He's like, sure, if you jump, you're gonna fall, you're
gonna get scrapes, you're gonna get hit some rocks, So
you know it's not going to feel good. He's like,
but if you don't, you'll never know what it feels
like to do something that you want to do and
be happy because you never took that risk and that chance,
(26:06):
and you always wonder it's the what IF's, basically, and
basically also letting you know that it's not going to
be easy. Yeah, but the things you want in life
usually aren't easy, but the payoff is always better because
you grinded through it and you took the chance, and
because you went through the process and the pain and everything,
then it becomes you are more grateful for it, I
(26:27):
guess because you're like, man, that was so difficult, But
now that I'm here and I've accomplished it, this feels
so freaking good because I went for something I wanted it,
it was not easy, I learned a lot, and now
here I am on the other side and this is fantastic.
That'd be my biggest thing is And it's not for
everyone though. Not everyone wants to do that, and that's fine.
You may not be able to because your situation. You know,
(26:47):
some people just like to be worker bees and they
like to do just the nine to five and they're
fine with that, or or they have a career path
they want and they don't want to think about anything else.
That's fine. Not everyone wants to. But if you're somebody
who's even thinking about it, I highly recommend it sounds
like maybe she is. I highly recommend that you take
the leave of faith and just jump and love do it.
Speaker 5 (27:06):
I agree, And I'll add to that that you should
make all the connections. You never know who you're going
to run into and who you're going to talk to.
It doesn't matter if it's a job that you don't
think you want. Yes, you should talk to any and
everybody and just keep making connections. The human connection is
how we interact with the world, but it's also how
you interact in your professional world too.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Exactly. Yeah, that's great. That's another great piece of advice.
It never never, yet, never turned someone down from a conversation,
if someone you see someone you're at an event or whatever.
If anything, it's also just another great person to have
on your team.
Speaker 5 (27:36):
Yeah, you can always have people rooting for you. That
never hurts anything. They'll know, all right, Scoob, what we
did it? Not really really seven and a half minutes over.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Well it's pretty damn close though.
Speaker 5 (27:45):
Okay, tell people where they can hear you, find you
all that good stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
Thank you. I really appreciate that. Thank you so much
for showering me with compliments as we begin.
Speaker 5 (01:32):
You're welcome, and thank you for listening to positivity in
the world.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Yeah heck yeah. And then thank you for listening and
taking the time to do that and comment. So that's
really cool.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
Yeah, lots of effort this morning. All right.
Speaker 5 (01:43):
Tyler from Kentucky wants to know when you're getting when
we are not you, when we are getting more scream
o content whenever.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
They want it.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
That people want it.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Entucky is a yes, So it sounds like they want it.
There's one I guess you got to be a little
more vocal about it and let them know by then
me and the show, and you want more of it
because I'm down to bring it like a scream o game,
like where like we'd scream lyrics and you have to
guess it. Me just doing more scream of songs? I
could do that too.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
I was gonna say, do you have any interest in
pursuing like a scream of song kind of like we
have Abby who just did her original song?
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Yeah, do you have any interest.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
In doing an original scream of song and putting it out?
Speaker 1 (02:21):
It'd be fun. Again, it comes down to I think
this is my overarching theme, is my schedule and time
and trying to fit everything in, and I would love
to do my own original song. At the moment, It's
much easier to take something that already exists and it
exactly or amplify would already like with the Hardy song,
for example, like it already had the elements of a
(02:42):
harder part at the end right there, and I'm like, oh,
it just add a little screaming to it to kind
of amplify it. That's much easier than having to like
start from ground one and write the music and write
the lyrics and then go record it and record it
and then I'm a perfectionist, so I'll be in there
all day long, all week long, all month long on
one damn thing. So it's like I would to do it, yes,
but this is like I guess my dipping my toes
(03:02):
in the water off starting it by doing this version
of it.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
That's fair, and it doesn't probably rank very high on
your important list at this moment in your life.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
No, because it's really fun and I enjoy it, but
it's not something, yes that I would. I need to
focus on so much right now. I will probably do
another one before the end of the year. I was
thinking about doing something with Jelly Roll or like Brandley Gilbert,
something of that already that space, Oh yeah, we're going,
we're going really weird and finding something like Landy Wilson
and the screaming with Laney Wilson.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
That could be strange, but I love it.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I guess anyone has any suggestions too,
I guess let Morgan.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Know, Yeah, let me know.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Scoop up in the DMS, not that he's probably very
great about checking.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Him wow, Not that he's pretty great at checking him.
He basically said he sucks at checking his DM more.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
I imagine that you're not because your dad.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Yes, that's where myside thousand percent correct.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
But I don't know if like someone had also told you,
and the question answers like Stephen never responds to his DMS.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
That's more of an a sumption of being someone who
utilizes social media.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
It's my job to understand.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
That you know what demographics are. My demographic doesn't check
DMS very often.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
Yeah, I guess, yeah, yeah, yeah, hit either one.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yeah, hit me with your best shot.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Ashley from Tennessee do you regret the vosectomy?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I do have some moments when I see larger families
and I'm like, oh, it'd be so cool to at
least have the option to have the fourth child. I
guess that's the one thing is you you take away
an option, it's always the grasses greener type effect, and
it never is greener. So that's how I've coped with it.
I'm like, you always take you on more. You think
you want something different than everything, but whatever you have, right,
now in front of you. Is in that aspect. I
(04:38):
guess it's just fine.
Speaker 5 (04:42):
I think his answer is yes, and he's scared to
say it.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, I mean I guess like
with any decision you make, there's parts of you that
look back on and go, crap, Yeah, I wish what
would have been like if I didn't go through it,
or I did, or I went the other route or
the other direction. So there's always going to be that
loom being thing of like what if I wanted a
fourth kid, or like whenever one of my kids is
like oh, you know, they'll make a comment about another
sibling or a brother or something, and I go, oh,
(05:07):
that's never gonna happen because because it just can't happen
anymore right now.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
The dreaded what ifs. Although technically can't you reverse the pcomy?
Speaker 1 (05:15):
You can, but it's not successful like the percentage of
the success rate, and also with how much pain you'll
go through reversing it. For me, it's just not worth it,
got it? They would tell me that it's especially the
longer you wait, the less likely the factory. As you
put it, my doctor will restart back up. He goes,
if you do within the first six months or so,
(05:36):
there's a pretty good chance you'll the surgery won't hurt
as much. You can get it back in gear. He's like,
but you hit a year, two years, three years, he goes,
it's almost like you can't do it. But it's like
ten percent, fifteen percent odds.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
What about a possibility of adoption? Is there any of
that conversation?
Speaker 1 (05:52):
There is, Yeah, because I even thought about that a
long time ago, when when we were first getting together
of like, hey, there's so many kids here in America
that are like just don't have a support they don't
have the family. Something happens like with Eddie for example.
You know he had that I don't know if it
was a friend of his or someone he knew. I
forget the connection because I wasn't here during that process,
but I know that he had someone that he knew,
or there was a connection, or or they got involved
(06:13):
in a foster Do you know what it was?
Speaker 5 (06:15):
His wife was the one who really wanted them to foster. No,
I'm not sure where that came from for her, but
she was the reason that they started fostering.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Gotcha, Okay, So and it turned into what they have
now where they adopted the kids. But yeah, it was
one of those things where you know, the kids had
a mother that was hooked on something, and we have
that's a huge problem in America, especially with what's the.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
One that I was on now, ozempic.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
No, no zempic. That's where you lose weight or diabeas now,
so the thing's super dangerous. If you're on the zebic
right now, I'm not judging you, but please consider stopping
it because it is a huge effing problem. I'm worried
about the long term effects that we don't know about
because it's so short. That's a product that I guarantee
(06:59):
you in three to four years, a lawyer will pop
up on your screen and say, did you take a
zembic in twenty twenty four? Call now to get your
law Morgan and Morgan for the people circle back, I know,
I know, circle back. So we were talking about oh,
oh oh, what's it called? Not profofol, Well, it's not
that Mac Miller died from and a lot of Jilly
(07:19):
Roll's friends died and Struggle Jennings friends died from it.
Oh my god, are you ef FFing kidding me?
Speaker 4 (07:25):
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (07:26):
I'm not super familiar with Struggus, fentanylt.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
It got fentanyl. There's a huge fentanyl epidemic, so there's
a lot of people that are now being affected by that.
There's going to be a ripple effect from it. There
are like Jelly Rolls, Jilly Rowl, and Struggle Jennings I
think alone have lost thirty forty people from fentanyl. So
think about all those people and if they had kids,
and if their family is also addicted. So that makes
my point is the foster system is probably flooded with
kids with this most recent epidemic, and then you had
(07:51):
the pandemic people dying from that or getting sick or
can't afford children anymore. So to answer your question in
a very long form answer, not keeping us.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
The twenty minutes from to ozimpic to fentanyl and I'm
not sure what's happening anymore.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
I know where I'm following the circle. We just came
right back around to. I bet the foster system is
probably flooded. To answer question about adopting children, I.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Had to give you a hard time because we were
on a we did.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
We did, we did, But you know, I'm really good
at I can bring it right, bring it around.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Answer your question.
Speaker 5 (08:29):
Actually he does regret them.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Yes, I could see myself fostering children a long source short.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
Yes, love it.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
Okay, we're going to break and we'll be right back.
All right, Brandy, she did not put where she's from.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
I'm sorry, but she did put her name.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
That's fine, Brandy, least put your name.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
She did.
Speaker 5 (08:50):
She wants to know your best parenting advice.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Wow, I think it's what I've learned, is I guess?
I'll give you two answers. One answer is not to
be judgmental against other parents unless they're doing something that's
completely unsafe. Then you're like, oh, then you need to
be judgmental and probably step in in some way. But
if like, but parenting styles in the way some things
are or what they let some kids get away with
(09:14):
and some kids and how certain kids act. I've noticed
with having kids in three different personalities that having perspective
on it, you can you should never judge another parent
where someone's like, oh I could never do that, or
I would never do that, or they shouldn't do like
the whole thing of judging parents like it is what
you don't know what they're going through, and you don't
know how that kid is like or what their things take.
(09:37):
You just don't know. So my point is, never judge
another parent.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
Love that great advice.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Disclamor less are being dangerous.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Okay, yes that was your part one.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Was part one too. Then my part two would be
my advice about parenting, like with the kids that side.
So when I want to give advice to parents, don't
judge with the parents. It's not cool because we've all
been there where we're like, we have the best day
and then someone catches you on day seven and it's
the worst day and they're like, Wow, what a terrible parent,
they can't get their kids in line whatever. It's like, no, no,
they were good for six days, and so are we.
(10:06):
You just caught the worst moment, like either they're hungry
or they have to go pee, or they're tired or whatever.
The situation is. Never judge another parent, super important. It's
not worth it.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
Yeah. I don't think you should judge other people in
general in general.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But parenting I've noticed in that space they are judgmental
on another level.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
Yeah, I think that's the time we're at in society.
We're just judgmental across the board.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Yes, so get people grace. Give people grace, you know,
I like it. Give people grace. You don't know what
they're going through, and if anything, help them out. I
feel like they need some help help them versus hurt them.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Love it.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Yes. Part two, Yes, And I did that one first
to try to stall and give me an idea of
part two. Part two. I just put myself up for
a part two that's okay, well no, but not I
have one now because I challenge myself within a conversation.
I then came up with a part two. And actually,
to be honest with you, I didn't have a part two,
and I said I had a Part two was lying.
I was stalling even more to figure out all My
(11:02):
Part two.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Was you're hurt my brain and now I haven't.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
Are we sure?
Speaker 1 (11:07):
No? So what's gonna happen is I'm just gonna say
something and that's gonna be my advice.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
Why we go, Honger, It's been the twenty minute threshold.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
I know, I know.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
So if you don't have something, just say IM porkin.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
No, I don't have another thing, but.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Morgan, I want to say thank you so much for
buying me more time to think of another idea that
I still haven't come up. He is also give your
kids grace because leading into like not knowing what they're doing.
I've noticed that my kids are usually one of three things.
They have to go pee, they're hungry, or they're tired.
And one thing that I've noticed when trying to get
(11:39):
their attention, yelling never works. It didn't work for me.
It always put a pit in my stomach. Here my
parents yell because they argued a lot, so it's a
different kind of yelling. And when they yelled at me,
it was like an angry from the depths of their soul,
I hate you kind of yell and you're like, oh
my god. So when you yell, you're not going to
get the attention of your kid. Never. It ain't gonna happen.
So what I have to do is I have to
get on my knee and get at their level so
(12:00):
they're not infuriated of me. Because when you stand there,
you're six foot tall. They're looking at but you they're like,
you know, three feet tall, and they just feel no
matter what if your voice changes to a stern tone,
that's how.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
I feel all the time, but go on, oh.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Yeah, I get you're short. Yeah, maybe actually get that
on my knee. I'm not gonna propose you, but I'm
just gonna be getting to eye to eye to you
so we can have a conversation. You don't feel inferior.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
Yeah that's weird, but yeah I can.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
I can relate to the kiddos.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
So I get on a knee or get at their level,
like crouch on whatever, and then i have the eye
to eye conversation and I'm like, yo, look what's wrong
with you? Are you okay? I'm like, do you have
to go potty? No? Are you hungry?
Speaker 5 (12:35):
No?
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Are you tired? And then I get my hug and
you're like, yeah, I'm tired. And I get my hug,
and I'll pick them up and I'll hold them and
I'll kind of like just like rock with them a
little bit and like try to console them and just
I've noticed that that is as much as my parenting
and the parenting before that would be like you're a woos,
but I've noticed that actually works better with humans is
the connectivity and the touch and the communication. It's huge.
(12:57):
You'll see such a and then you'll see a difference
in your kids life because then they become more secure
in their relationship with you and other relationships because because
you were more hands on with them and you broke
down the barrier and didn't do what your parents and
previous generations did, and you kind of just treated them
like another human because you wouldn't want to be streamed
and yelled at or or talk to or whatever. It's
(13:18):
better to just grab that attention that way. So I
get on the knee and talk to them, and if
I have to compee, I'm like, oh, it's a good
potti right now, Like it's all good. Just next time,
trying to use your words and let me know what's wrong.
They're still not going to every time, but when you
get on that level, then they're more willing to open
up and speak to you and give you what you want.
And then you do whatever one of those three things
in or the wildcard four. They're like, well, I want
gummy beers. You're all right, whatever, gummy bears. Who cares
(13:41):
like it doesn't really matter. Give a pack of gummy bears.
So you have that sanity for the next two to
three hours. And once you do whatever one of those
three or four things is then you're completely fine, then
life is easier, and then you go on with the
rest of your day and then you tackle the next problem.
So that'd be my advice. I like it, so I
came up with it. I knew I just had.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
To find something, give grace and be on your knees.
Got it exactly? From California. Wow, that sounds at all furnace.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
If I summed it up, that.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Would be that'd be it. Yeah, totally get down on one knee.
Speaker 4 (14:10):
And intentional will be taken another way that you were going.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
No, you were going that way. I wasn't you left?
I left your laugh.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
I giggled as it came out of my mouth. As
I was summarized, I realized, yeah, m hmm. Anyways, from California.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
I would like to know how you proposed to your wife.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
How Emily from California? Ship were in California. It's a
pretty big state. Oh sorry, Emi, what city girl? All right?
Speaker 5 (14:32):
But anyways, I didn't know they needed to have city.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Now, we'd be nice that they would tell me geographically
where they're at. The State's fine, but I want to
know where from the state, because then we may have
a connection.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
Here told you guys. He was sassy, like.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
She's like, oh, San Francisco, Oh my god, I can
tell you about this and you'll know, Emily because you
live in San Francisco, or like, oh, I'm in Baker's Field.
Oh the story I'm going to tell you it's actually anyways,
so it happened in San Francisco. The first date that
my wife and I had was at this place called
Tunnel Top Bar. It was like two blocks from my apartment.
It's on the corner of Stockton, right at the end
into the Stockton Tunnel and I think it's I forget
(15:02):
post maybe maybe Anyways, Tunnel Top Bar. That was where
our first day was, where we first met, where we
had like a six hour conversation and like three or
four drinks and just kind of laid our hearts out
and explained everything. He fell in love, fell in love
almost immediately. I did, at least, but her maybe it
took a couple of dates. But so when I went
to propose to her, what I did was, of course,
I went to her family, went to her mom and
(15:24):
her sister and her brother. That's like her immediate family,
doesn't her father's not here. If you want to know
about that. Listen to other episodes.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
Yeah, we've talked about it before.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Yeah. So so I went to them and I was like, hey,
here's my plan. I want to propose to your daughter
slash sister, and this is my whole thing. And I
kind of like, poor, I won't give you the whole things.
We're trying to keep this twenty minutes. But I talked
to them and gave my best intentions, my everything, and
my compare like everything that I wanted to tell them,
I gave it to him. And they were so receptive
and they were so happy, and they were and they
(15:53):
wanted to do whatever they could to help me out
in this process. And I was like, all right, so
here's my plan. So I want to do this at
the place we met, Tunnel Top Bar, but I want
you guys to be there as well, but I don't
want you to be there until we do the moment.
I want to be a surprise. So she just thinks
we're going to the city and grabbing drinks and that's it.
She has no idea. We're just because we do that often,
we would go to the city and do that. So
(16:15):
we're like, we're going to a ton of Top Bar,
and maybe she called. I never asked her if she
if it, if it clewed her in because we're going
to that spot because we hadn't been there since our
first date. So maybe if she's pretty smart, she probably like, oh,
he's never proposing to me. It's gonna happ right now,
it's totally happened.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
Oh yeah, she knew.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Yeah, I get her because she's super smart and very intuitive.
She must have been. She may have been feeling it.
I don't know. I never asked that's a good question
to ask her. I just came up with myself.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Yeah, and I will get you follow up.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Yes, so yes, so yeah with top Bar. And then
we come in. And I also I emailed the guy
in advance and I say, hey, I'm coming in, and
I told I sent him for my work email, which
was I worked for the JV show at the time,
while then four nine like the biggest morning show, the
biggest station in the Bay, and so I had a
little bit of cloud and I was like, hey, man,
I met my wife here, you know, one of my wife.
(17:04):
I met my girl here like a year ago. It
was a year and a half, a year maybe two
years ago. I said Hey, I want to propose to
her here at the bar. You know, is there a
way I can come in there, like right before you
guys open or or something like that, Like I don't
want to be crowded. He's like, yeah, man, no problem,
of course, and so we set it up. I call
him and I want him to play a song. Hunter
(17:25):
Hayes is the song because that happened to be playing. Yeah,
it happened to be playing when we first walked into
the bar.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
I wanted I think, yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Make you feel wanted. Yeah, So that song was playing
right when we walked into the bar, either when we
walked into the bar, or we were leaving, or maybe
there's a moment where I was playing and I was like,
I think it was. I was like, oh, I love
this girl and that song was on. We talked about
that song a little bit and then so so I
was like, Okay, I want you to play the song
when we walk in and then we're just gonna grab
a drink. We're gonna go upstairs because again, no problem.
So we get there. It's not even so maybe she
(17:54):
knew because like it was like twelve o'clock, bar open
is like four.
Speaker 5 (17:58):
She might have gotten the realization as you guys arrived
and that's happening.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
And I had them get there before us, and they
got there and they hid like somewhere like in the
back area. So the guy who owns the bar was
very instrumental in a major part in this and was
so helpful. And so we did all that. We get
in the bar. Song comes on. She's like what I
was like, and we grab drinks the similar drinks. I
had no old fashion. She had her vodka one and tonic
with lime, kind of one voka tonic and line.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
I like the listening details right, scuba steep yees.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
So I had our drinks. We go upstairs, the songs playing,
and we're just kind of reminiscing for a moment, and
I was just kind of like, get down on one
knee and I just professed my love for her and
my intentions, and she's like, and she's just on cloud
nine ride at that moment. Her mom comes up and
her brother and her sister, and then she's even more like,
oh my god, and they get pictures and stuff, and
then we propose, and I propose, and then then we're off.
(18:49):
We're off to the races, and yeah, you can see
that picture that day. It's on my Instagram. You just
gotta go down a little bit Scooba Steeve Radio.
Speaker 5 (18:57):
But the day, like, is there a picture of you
proposing or is it after the proposal?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
I believe it picture of the proposal, but for sure
after the proposal it is a picture of her, like's
the ring and a picture in front of tunnel top bar.
Speaker 5 (19:08):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Yeah, it was a really cool moment. It was really
special and it was just there was nothing that was
difficult about it. It was super smooth and easy and it
was the only nervous part was was getting the hand
in marry, like asking for hand in marriage, Like I
know they would say yes, but it's just really nerve
wracking going to someone and saying, hey, I want to
marry your daughter, or hey I want to marry your sister.
I know she means everything to you, and but now
(19:28):
I'm taking over kind of that's just a lot because
I have daughters now and I'd have a really hard
time allowing that myself.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
Yeah, well, it's it's just an emotional like transition of
time and somebody really where that emotion is coming from,
letting go and a new beginning.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Yeah, okay, that was super.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Sank you Emily from California. We don't know where in California,
but you just had.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Lunchbox.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
I just kidding, I'm nailing the coffin.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
That is like so shoved in.
Speaker 1 (19:57):
You can't pull it back, you can't know it's there.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
Okay, we'll be right back.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your story.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
No problem, all.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
Right, we got Lauren from Virginia. Don't yell at our
No city wants to know your highlight of your time
on the Bobby Bone Show so far.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
I was trying to try to do lightning around with
these and you can still do it. I'll leave you, Okay.
My greatest time with the show would definitely have to
be when Eddie and I did the walk from West
Virginia to Tennessee. That was such a unique experience because
I've done a lot of things in the studio with
guests and bits in the show with different shows that
I've worked for and worked with, But that was so
(20:35):
cool because we were out, we were not in the studio.
It was it was an unknown thing. It was planned,
but also we're kind of making it up as we go. Yeah,
like it was it winging it, But we did it.
We made it happen. There was a good cause behind
it. It was a charity element. It was cool to see
Eddie pushing himself no matter it was pretty difficult, like
seeing him walk and then he's bleeding and all kinds
(20:56):
of crazy stuff. And then we're running into listeners and
and program directors. Family members were out there and came
and visited us. Tommy Chuck's parents from Virginia. They came
out like it was just a really cool neat experience.
And then Rod and Gator met up with us who
work here with the company that are higher ups. They
met us midway through and then and then it was
just it was such a cool experience. And there's a
million and one stories from it, but just the whole
(21:18):
thing was just such. It was unique and nothing like it.
I think nothing will ever top that, at least in
my career as far as doing something with a show
like that was so so cool.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
Yeah, and the charity tie and the profound impact of
that definitely helps the impact I bet it had on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Oh yeah, definitely. Yeah. And then you talked about earlier
the foster kids and all that. It's just like, this
money is going towards something huge. It's going to help
a lot of kids and a lot of families, and
a lot of kids get into families. It's like, this
is and we raised close to I think it was
a quarter million dollars. It was like two fifty six
or three hundred thousand. I was like, and our goal
was I think just ten thousand. That was unbelievable. Yeah,
it was really really cool. And then also to see America,
(21:56):
speaking of Virginia, we saw Westterroat. I mean, he saw
places I'd never seen before, driving through roads that I
would never ever touch, and it was it was really cool.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
I love that, really cool.
Speaker 5 (22:05):
Patty is concerned with you doing the iHeartRadio nineties show. Well,
she wants to know what'll make me leave the Bobby
Bone Show.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Patty is concerned. Well, Patty, you have no concerns because
I don't even know. I don't know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
You have no concerns.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
How there you be concerned with my choices? I know,
I know, I know I have no idea what the
future holds true. All I know is that it's something
that I wanted to do and I asked to have
my own thing, and then I and it worked out.
I'm not sure what the long term thing is, at
least in the company's eyes, but it's something fun for
me to do. I used to do it in Bakersfield
(22:39):
when I was doing Ryan Seacrush show as his executive producer.
I'd get there early in the morning and i'd record
that midday show for a Bakersfield station, which is funny
because I used to go up against not really hope against,
but you know, Bret Michaels from who's one of our
affiliates in Bakersfield.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
Brent.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Oh, I love Bret. It's amazing. So I knew him
before even all this because he was in that market
and he was a staple and so I knew who
he was because I did my research on it and
I went to Bakersfield and was a part of it
and immersed myself in it, and I was like, oh,
I'm going up against Brent Michaels, and and then this
whole thing came up and I was like, oh my gosh,
Brent Michaels, like our past kept crossing. So that's a
really cool and special relationship. And I'm going off on
(23:15):
a tangent and dang it, we're not doing lightning round.
But my point was I did Middays for about three
or four years and I and I was really really
I had a really good time with it and I
did really well, Like the social numbers were the highest
they'd ever been. I really I had increased that engagement
on Facebook and Instagram and Twitter. And then the show
it was just a midday show, but I was doing
it kind of the morning show a light that it
did so well that it had to it created some
(23:38):
changes in that station, and I won't get in all
the weeds of it, but it was really cool and
it was fun. And then when I came here, I
couldn't do it anymore because this was a new job.
It was this was like this is ultra full time
and I needed to make sure that I was successful
at this, and so I was, I don't have any
free time for anything. I had to fully fully dedicate
myself to this. And then the COVID pandemic happened, which
(23:58):
meant I even had to you know more so I
just had to walk away from it. But now that
it's back, it's great and I'm enjoying it. That's that's
where it is right now. That's that's all. I'm not
looking for anything at the moment. If she's worried about that.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
I'm continuing exploring different opportunities and thriving because stagnant is
no fun exactly.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
And why not there's an opportunity and why not jump
on it exactly? Box you're gonna burnt out? La da da.
It's not about the money, it's not about anything. It's
about me having my own thing that is for me.
Like you have this, this is your thing. It's like
your creative out. It's your piece of you, and it's
nice to have that outside of something else. Like like
Bobby's even said to himself, he's like, I'd be hypocrite
(24:38):
if I said you shouldn't pursue something like this, because
he's like, I do ten million other things.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
Yeah, it gives me your individuality exactly.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
So so yes, thank you for being concerned, but gop and.
Speaker 5 (24:48):
Lastly, yeah, this you can do lining around. I believe
in you. Your best career advice from Kate in Indiana.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Dang girl, Kate in Indiana not a city, but I
will say you're from Indianapolis, Indiana or Fort Wayne, No,
Fort Wayne because our boy Randy. Yeah, Fort Wayne and
Randy was up dude anyway, So as if he's even.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Listening, I don't think it all right.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
My best career advice, I would say is jump, and
I learned that from Steve Harvey. I was watching one
of these things that were posted on TikTok.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
Oh my god, but you're on TikTok.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
I know, but I don't even really do anything with it.
Speaker 4 (25:21):
Yeah, that last one day on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
Like maybe he was like fifteen years ago and he
was doing one of those things. He was hosting a
show and in between takes a lot of times sometimes
the whost will come over and say, hey, studio audience,
so thanks for being here, and they'll do they may
just like just show appreciation. If they're a comedian, they
may tell a joke like Steve Harvey, but he always
does motivational things in between takes when he has a moment,
and one of the ones was he's like, you gotta jump.
(25:44):
He's like, if you don't jump, he goes, you'll never know.
He's like, he goes, sure, he goes, if you jump.
It was a little bit longer. I'm trying to paraphrase it.
He's like, sure, if you jump, you're gonna fall, you're
gonna get scrapes, you're gonna get hit some rocks, So
you know it's not going to feel good. He's like,
but if you don't, you'll never know what it feels
like to do something that you want to do and
be happy because you never took that risk and that chance,
(26:06):
and you always wonder it's the what IF's, basically, and
basically also letting you know that it's not going to
be easy. Yeah, but the things you want in life
usually aren't easy, but the payoff is always better because
you grinded through it and you took the chance, and
because you went through the process and the pain and everything,
then it becomes you are more grateful for it, I
(26:27):
guess because you're like, man, that was so difficult, But
now that I'm here and I've accomplished it, this feels
so freaking good because I went for something I wanted it,
it was not easy, I learned a lot, and now
here I am on the other side and this is fantastic.
That'd be my biggest thing is And it's not for
everyone though. Not everyone wants to do that, and that's fine.
You may not be able to because your situation. You know,
(26:47):
some people just like to be worker bees and they
like to do just the nine to five and they're
fine with that, or or they have a career path
they want and they don't want to think about anything else.
That's fine. Not everyone wants to. But if you're somebody
who's even thinking about it, I highly recommend it sounds
like maybe she is. I highly recommend that you take
the leave of faith and just jump and love do it.
Speaker 5 (27:06):
I agree, And I'll add to that that you should
make all the connections. You never know who you're going
to run into and who you're going to talk to.
It doesn't matter if it's a job that you don't
think you want. Yes, you should talk to any and
everybody and just keep making connections. The human connection is
how we interact with the world, but it's also how
you interact in your professional world too.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Exactly. Yeah, that's great. That's another great piece of advice.
It never never, yet, never turned someone down from a conversation,
if someone you see someone you're at an event or whatever.
If anything, it's also just another great person to have
on your team.
Speaker 5 (27:36):
Yeah, you can always have people rooting for you. That
never hurts anything. They'll know, all right, Scoob, what we
