Speaker 1 (00:01):
God give you hear the phrase gonna drive me to drinking. Yeah,
I think my bulldog is gonna drive me to drinking.
By the way, good morning to the studio, Morning studio.
So woke up and he couldn't walk this morning, like

(00:22):
one of his legs completely just yeah, it was holding
it in the air. So we stopped sending him to
like the doggy daycare. We send him a few times
a week so we get his energy out. But he
started getting sick, and I think he was getting sick
from the other dogs. And bulldogs just not the healthiest
of dogs. I don't think they should make bulldogs anymore.
They should bread them. In some countries they stopped rereading

(00:43):
them because they're just nothing. And I never want to
I love Stanley, like that's my guy. But in general,
bulldogs not healthy dogs, and there's so much incest and
so from what I know about bulldogs, probably not the
healthiest breeds. They're so darn cute though they are, they're awesome. Um,
but he goes and every time he goes, now goes
once a week. He heard something or he's sick, and

(01:04):
he's like blown his hip out. And so I'm concerned
that he's got to go have like a full hip
or place makes those bulldogs get their hips constantly messed
up or they have them constantly messed up. So this
is probably segment one of twenty of me having to
deal with this, I hope, because sometimes the dog was
have a mystery injury and we'll go away the next day. Yeah,
so what happens to me too? What mystery injury? And

(01:25):
you or your animal? Oh you're how's the cat? She's good?
She might drive me to drinking sometimes. What happened she does?
I mean, she's all kinds of things. But we accidentally
locked her in the pantry the other day. Oh no,
she was in there for I don't even know five hours.
She pee in the crock pot, which makes sense. It
looks like a litter box. I'm glad she opted to

(01:48):
do that instead of like, because we have baskets in
our pantry full of food, and that would have been
worse and I wouldn't be able to clean the baskets
and probably just have to toss him. But the crock pot,
you know, run it the dishwasher, good to go. So
you just washed it, and you're good because I would
have done the same thing. Some people will go, I
would never touch that crack pot again if somebody p didn't.
Oh yeah, don't tell my kids. Do you think that'd

(02:09):
have an issue with that. Yes, they'd be like always
think that's a toilet. I'm gonna have to just put it. Yeah,
I have thought about that, but I can put the
lid on. The problem is the lid wasn't on. But
I can store it in the pantry with the lid
on and solve that problem. I was gonna say I
could put it up high, but she can get everywhere.
She can get up high. I don't know how she
does it, but claws but still claws on a pant,

(02:31):
on a pantry. I know it makes the whole room ivory.
She can't climb it. Oh, mark, like she gets the
weirdest places. Is that a ivory? And probably not good
for the elephants? Eddie, you saw a dog. I do
have a dog. People will keep asking me that, like, hey,
you haven't post picture of your dog, like is it dead?
Nolla right, hotel us, she's she's still there. You don't

(02:52):
post picture, so we just think you died and you
don't tell us. I don't. She is like a teenager, though,
she stays upstairs for most of the day, and then
when she's hungry, she comes down and she wants to
be petted on the head, and then where's my food?
You feed her and then she's like, all, I'm going
back upstairs see tomorrow. Just kind of she lives her life.
I walk her every day. But that's about it. Is
a fish still alive? Yeah? Are you sure? Because when

(03:12):
you answer that question, yes, you promise. Luckily, because I
did forget to feed it. One day, my daughter said
that I at a friend's house. I don't know. This
was a few days ago, and she was like, hey, Mom,
feed the fish. I'm like, yeah, yeah, no problem. Then
she comes home from the friend's house, like thirty hours
have passed, Mom, did you feed the fish? What did

(03:34):
you say? Yes, No, I didn't. I forgot it. And
she's like, Mom, but fishes forgot to feed you for
thirty hours. Yeah, I think about that. I thought about
that too, and I was like, I can't believe I
forgot to feed the fish. I had one responsibility to
add to my list of one hundred other things I
was supposed to do. I just forgot to feed the fish. Luckily,
it's fine. The fish chapter of petas outside the fish chapter. No,

(03:58):
but it's fine. So now we know the fish can
go alone. Miss me that if that fish dies, you're
not just gonna go replace it. Oh I swear because
I don't gain anything from y'all are the ones with
the bet. But if the fish dies, we'll blame you
for killing a fish. Oh well, plenty of people have
DM emailed me, sent me messages that there they killed
their fish. So not the only person the terrible Facebook

(04:20):
would be a part of it. I killed my fish group, Okay,
um rage Still, how's the cat? I gotta checking on
animals here. Yeah, he's about to have his fourteenth birthdays, so,
I mean he's about to drive. And it's a tiger cat, right, Yeah,
it's a Bengal. I mean one of the more expensive
cat you could get. Why do you always say more
expensive like it's some sort of flex talk about how

(04:40):
much the cat costs. Kind of proud of that. I mean,
we have maintenance people come over all the time. I'm like,
oh my gosh, it's a beautiful cat. I'm like, I know,
he's my son. It looks like it's the logs in
the wild it is a little too big, cat and
exotic as well. Yeah, but it was so far away
from whatever it's called that you're allowed to have it
if it a link, not allowed to have those, but

(05:01):
this one you can. All right, thank you. I don't
know what he's talking. I don't know either. I'm still yeah,
all right, it's time to open up the mailbag something. Hello,
Bobby Bones. I recently got engaged and my fiance and

(05:23):
I are coming up with our guest list. We're wanting
a small wedding, so we're trying to invite the people
that mean the most to us. I had this one
friend that I haven't spoken to for over a year now,
but I was one of her bride'smaids, so I would
still like to send an invitation to her. My fiance
says I shouldn't send her one, since we're just trying
to invite people that are dear to us. Please let
me know what you think I should do, Love bride

(05:45):
to be. What I think you should do is what
feels the best to you. I think it's okay to
invite someone even if you don't talk to someone can
be close to you without being close to you. Every
single day like I would say, my friend Courtney, great friend.
We might talk once every four months, but if I
needed a kidney, he would drive up and give me

(06:07):
a kidney. Sometimes life gets in the way of being
able to talk to certain people all the time. I
think if this person is important to you and you
feel like you want to invite her, you should be
able to invite her. I don't think that close people
mean close people to you every single day, so you know,
I'm a big guy. After having a wedding recently and
going through this, you should surround yourself with what makes

(06:27):
you feel the best. I don't think you're obligated to
invite anybody just because you were in her wedding. You
shouldn't feel obligated. But if you want to be like
how much you kind of my wedding too, you should
be able to do that. You should do what makes
you feel the best. So if you want to do it,
do it. You and your fiance both have the opportunity
to invite different people as long as you're not going
over the limit with her, and I think you're good,

(06:48):
Amy co sign on that send the invitation, Like for
if you feel like he's going to have people maybe
he wants to invite where you're like and it's not
really a big deal, but only you know how you
would feel not sending the invitation, and if you walk
away from that feeling weird, then let's just send it.
It's one person, maybe a day too, yes, by two.

(07:10):
I think it's fine. If it's in your heart, let
it rip. That's what I say, especially at a wedding time.
Don't feel obligated to invite anyone though. That's the other
advice that I give away from this is that I
feel like, oh, we should invite them because of don't
worry about it, and if someone gets irritated, that's that's
going to pass and be gone in two weeks. Anyway,
I can't remember the weddings I've been invited to. But also,
if you get invited RSVP. I learned about that less

(07:32):
in the hard way. Oh yeah, I would never RSVP,
But now that I've had a wedding, I'll RSVP to anything.
All right, go for it. Do it makes you feel good.
Thank you for the email we got your that was
about to close. Morgan Wade is one of my favorite
new artists. She has my favorite album that's out now.

(07:53):
You would know her from this song Wilder Days, Hate
the Smell. So here's an interview I do with Morgan Wade,
and then we're gonna play her live performance doing Wilder
Days in studio. All right, check it out. Morgan. How
are you? I'm good. How are you? I'm doing pretty good.

(08:15):
It's nice to finally meet you. You as well. When
did you start tinkering around with music? Like at five
to six? Seven? Yeah, I was like the early song
I remember, like seven years old writing songs, writing songs,
not just listening in music. No, No, I remember like
writing songs at like a very early age. So how
did you even know that you could write a song?
Because when I was seven, I didn't know you could
write a song. Did you have musical people around you? No,

(08:36):
not at all. I don't remember just being like such
a secret. And I'm still not tirely sure why it
was such a secret. But I would write and like
sing and stuff until i'd see, you know, one of
my parents come home, and I'll put it away, So
I didn't want anybody to hear me. Why do you
think that is? Like deep down, why do you think
that is? I was told one there was a there
was a singing group at school and I was the
only kid that didn't make it, and I was told

(08:57):
my voice was weird, and that just stuck with me.
I was like, all right, no more, no more, I'm
not doing that. And I was. I was sensitive, very sensitive.
I mean, you know, you're young like that and you
get told that, and so I was like, all right,
you know, it's just for me, which I think benefited
me the most because I enjoy doing it. So I
kept doing it. But you know, you can be really
honest with yourself. You're not out there trying to impress anybody.

(09:20):
It was just something I did to like cope, and
that's how I write now you know someone the way
I not or right. Have you done any sort of
radio tour yet where you go to radio stations? Yeah?
Does everyone go straight to the tattoos first most of
the time? Yeah? And so what is your stock answer
when someone goes what's up with the tattoos? A lot
of times I'm just like, oh, I forgot I had tattoos,
you know, I just say something like and then they're

(09:40):
just like, okay, this girl's when did the tattoo things start?
And was it all at once or did you just
kind of just mess around with a little bit. No. No.
My freshman year of college, I remember I was sitting
in my apartment and one of my friends was there
and she was just like, I think you would like tattoos.
I don't know why she said, had that, and I
was like, I should do that. I think I had

(10:02):
ninety dollars in my bank account, and I went and
I got a tattoo, and then I was just like, Okay,
I really liked this, and I think a few weeks
later I went and got like three more at one time.
A few weeks later, yeah, I got paid between with
the goal of is the goal now to cover your
whole body? No, I don't really know what my goal

(10:23):
is anymore. I'm gonna be honest with you. Getting tattoos
at nineteen and then getting tattoos now at twenty seven,
the pain is a lot different. I swear it hurts
more now. And maybe it's just because I've ran all
all the easy spots. Everybody check out Reckless. The deluxe

women's basketball referee. He's been doing it for forty years.
And he's rapping a college game one day, no big deal,
it's just an ordinary game, and he starts feeling the
tightness in his chest. He doesn't think anything of it,

tell me something good. Hey, Shelby, how are you? Oh

(14:51):
my god, Oh my god, I'm talking about you right now.
Well you sound pretty good. O. Well, I'm gonna give
you a chance to win some prizes here. Okay, oh
right now, if you're able to get it in the
first two rounds, I'm gonna give you that fancy revolution toaster.
Have you seen this toaster? Oh? Yeah, change your life now.

(15:15):
If it gets down to the coin flips, she doesn't
win the toaster, she just wins the crap in the bag.
But if you're able to team up with one of
the show members and they get this right, you're gonna
win the toaster. So let's go. It's time for never
gonna get it. Here we go. Okay, I'm gonna ask
a question I don't think anyone will get, but you'll
have a few different layers here. Here we go. Here's
the question. Americans say this should last no longer than

(15:39):
seven and a half hours. What is it? What on earth?
Americans say this should last no longer than seven and
a half hours. What is it now? Seven and a
half hours? Shelby, If you get it, I'm just gonna
let you take a guess. If you get it, you'll

(16:00):
win the toaster. Some crap from the back and assigned
beanie baby. Oh yeah, all three if you win the
first level. Yeah, hey, Scooba, what's in the crap for
the back? Crap for the back? By the way, We've
got a Pimp and Joy sweatshirt, hughs and Q's board
game and a Morgan Wade hat. Okay, okay, and a toaster,

(16:21):
the Revolution toaster, which is very expensive. Okay. Americans say
this should last no longer than seven and a half hours.
What is it? What Shelby for the wind road trip?
Does she get it right? She got it right. It's
a roast toaster for whoa, that's insane. I have the word.

(16:48):
You're the first person ever come on, just nail it.
Oh my god, you got that right. I mean I
was thinking, I'm gonna be honest with you. The show
is a bit disappointed you won the toaster. I still
love if I thought that. Do you eat toast? Yeah?
Do you even want water? Go ahead? Amy, I want

(17:11):
to know. Do you do you enjoy toast? Yeah? My
coworkers are literally like recording age. I'm smothly freaking out right. Well,
let me get to the answer first. Sixty one percent
of people say that a road trip should not last
longer than seven and a half hours. I cannot believe
she came on and I mean get it, I can

(17:32):
believe happening right now. Um, and she wins this crazy toaster. Wow,
the toaster of the future. Yeah, yes, lunch. Can I
ask her a question? Yeah? I know, she gets the toaster.
Can I have the panini maker? Well, you need the
toaster to make part of it. It's part of hang it. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
nothing happens. Good for me. Oh, let's talk. I love you.
Do you like one of my favorites? So? Can I

(17:52):
have the toaster? We're gonna mail you this expensive toaster
and some crap from the bag and a beanie baby. Okay.
Oh that's why I'm a little blown away through I
could never road trip never crossed my mind. In the
minute she said it, I was like, that's genius. Well
there you have it. Celebrate good times. Even Morgan's disappointed.
I think she wanted the toaster. I did. I really

(18:14):
wanted that toaster. It's bitter sweet. Not for me. I
think it's awesome as you want Shelby. Congratulations, you are
a wonder. There's a fake. Okay, Shelby, stand on the
phone and we'll be sure to send you all this
stuff on the phone. James in Indiana, James, that's going on, buddy, Well,

(18:35):
I got a quick question for you. I know you
travel a lot and you are chasing your dreams. My
cousin started up a distillery, right and it's really taken off.
And I'm in southern Indiana. I got a dedicated relationship
with two daughters. My fiance does not want me to
travel be away from home no matter what. But this
opportunity is like an opportunity of a lifetime. How could

(18:58):
I balance the two? It's a great question. I am
also living this as well. Where I would just run,
I sput loose and fancy free. I do ten jobs
a day, I'll be in seven times zone to ten minutes.
But now I have a wife, I have another part
of my life that I have to consider, and so
I'm now trying to balance a bit and it is

(19:18):
a struggle. And we both make concessions where she will
go and sit in a crappy hotel room in a
tiny town in Iowa and be with me when I'm
shooting a show, and then I will make sure to
dedicate a couple of days to her where we're doing things.
That's good for our relationship and our family. So for us,
we are trying to achieve balance. Here's the thing about balance,

(19:39):
It's never perfectly achieved. You're always slightly leaning one side
or the other, or just weigh on one side or
the other. Your fiance, what's her big beef? Like, is
it you're just not going to be with her or
your daughters, or what's what's her issue? Well, we've kind
of had a rocky relationship for seventeen years, and she's

(19:59):
kind of set and her weight, being at her job
and her only living family left as her dad here
in New Aubany. But I don't have any family left.
So her problem is me trying to chase the dream.
And she's saying it's not fair that I leave her
at home to take care of the kids, have to work,
have to do that, while I'm off running around doing

(20:21):
god knows what, because right now, God knows what. That's
how you were going to work? Yeah? How you going
to the distiller? I have so many questions A rocky
seventeen year relationship. But did that stick out to anybody else? Yes,
that was my first question, Like how long have you
been engaged. We've been sixteen years. You've been engaged, so

(20:42):
this is yes. Yeah, yeah, are you guys considered married?
We'd live wife and husband. We just haven't took that
step to get married. Why we've had a really rocky relationship.
Like I said, I have no family, and we kind
of ran into some issues when I had like a
major trauma. And this is an opportunity of a lifetime.

(21:05):
We could have millions of dollars, Like I would be
part owner of a whiskey bringing that Jim Beam's already
picked up and he loved it. And she just does
not want me to be a part of it because
she says, you need a nine to five job, stay
here at home with us, and I'm okay with just
a mediocre life. Well, James, you've been engaged for sixteen years.

(21:29):
It's been rocky. She left you when you were down. Yeah,
I would make let's just knowing your story and what
I know of at this brief call, I would prioritize
your daughters more than I would prioritize this rocky sixteen
year fiance relationship because it feels like that's on and off. Yeah,
and if it was on more than off, you probably

(21:50):
would be married. I would prioritize your daughters and if
you feel like you could be a good dad to
them while venturing off and doing this job, I would
do this job. She's a key piece to you being
able to do that though, right, because like if for
you to travel, you need her to help with the kids.
That's what she's saying that she said, basically, be doing it?
Just me walking out on my family. What's our problem?

(22:12):
I want to get her on the I think he
has to stop saying God knows what when he's working
out there. I think he needs to assure her that, yeah, yeah,
how far is the drive? I need to know this too.
How far is it to get to this place? Are
you having to move away? It will It's about four hours.
And I even did it two weeks commuting. I would
go up work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, I'd be back

(22:34):
home Friday, Saturday, Sunday. That was not good enough. I
mean four hours doesn't seem that bad if you ask me.
But also we need to so yeah, change the language.
God knows what. Get to get down to work. What
you're doing. You're doing much work, so much work. I
don't know. Just like yes, Bobby, Like Bobby said, your

(22:55):
kids are your top priority. Obviously we have gaps in
the story. We don't know the whole thing. But as
someone that loves you, if she does, then she should
want us support your dreams. Thank you for calling. We
encourage you to pursue your dream. Make sure you're a
good dad. It sounds like this relationship has been quite
rocky for quite a long time. I think it'll still

(23:15):
be there. It's gone through some rocky situations. I think
this could also be a bit rocky at first. But
if what you're able to get from it, even financially,
can help the family, I think in the end that
will make it a more pleasant home. Thank you. All right, buddy,
Go go get your dream, chase it on, fly like
an eagle. All right, see a man. Yeah, I'm awesome.
You're awesome. Awesome, you're awesome, You're everybody's awesome. Yeah. Pretty

(23:38):
wild story, huh. I didn't want to start yelling Jerry
Jerry the middle of it, but I respect it. Didn't
This is Brian and Oregon. Hey Bobby, Well, I don't
know why I'm whispering, but I just walked by my
neighbor's house and me still as a Christmas lights and
the Christmas tree up, Christmas tree, Christmas lights, Bobby, he
still got him up? All right? Good night, Good night, buddy.

(23:59):
I hope you have a good sleep. Tight. You know
why he's whispering. He's looking at windows. How did you
see the Christmas tree a lunchbox? Do you still have
your lights? Lights are still up? It's February fifteenth, your
lights are still going strong. Has anyone else said anything
to you about it? And nobody has said a word.
And you're only keeping them up because because the guy
stopped by, I mean a month ago and it was like,
hey man, just seeing no Christmas is over and we're

(24:20):
having a power shortage and you still got your lights going,
and that really hit me in the nerves. You turn
them on at night? Now it's a timer five o'clock.
Do they come on at every areas? Hilarious? This is
up there with Eddie's snowman from last year. Mark, Yeah, awesome.
How long do you plan to leave him up? Hopefully
until March my wife is getting annoyed with him. She's like,
all right, now we've proved your point, Like, can you

(24:41):
take him down? I'm like nope, I don't think you
have yet. I don't I don't feel a point being
improving yet. Yeah, I mean May about May first. That's
a long time. It is you Amy's pile of stories. Okay.
So Bobby Seth Rogan said something that made me think
of you. He said he doesn't understand why Hollywood expects

(25:01):
people to care about the Oscars. Quote, I don't care
who wins the Automobile Awards. No other industry expects everyone
to care about what awards they shower upon themselves. You know,
there's a lot of truth to this, and good friend
for saying it. The reason that people have cared is
because that was the time when you could look at celebrities.

(25:21):
We look at celebrities different Now. We don't really hold them,
just speaking generally here to some high esteem, like, oh,
look at these great actors. We worship and adore them.
We like our celebrities to be somewhat like us, and
the Oscars they ain't like us. So any awards show
is kind of a bit too congratulatory. Now and they're
all starting to be exactly the same and that's why

(25:43):
the ratings are going down on all of them. But
I agree with Seth Rogan, like, who cares. I'll watch
you for a minute. Who cares? And they're still giving
awards to like the makeup artists and the film editors,
you know what. That's who shouldn't get artists. That's what
the show's all about. Um, yeah, I agree, I agree
with them. Yeah, all right, what else you get? Okay?
So Tender is bringing back the blind date, So if

(26:05):
you're not familiar, it's basically an option on their platform
where the users have to talk to each other in
a timed conversation with no photos. If the chat goes well,
then both parties involved have to kind of like each
other's profile and then they get to see each other.
So it's now available here in the US if anybody

(26:26):
wants to try it out. This is terrible, and I'm
gonna tell you why for somebody like me, because they
won't see it. Let's say I were single back in
the day, I got on Tender before it turned into
like hook up. Only back in the day, Tinder was
one of the first real cool I'm talking seven eight
years ago. Yeah, So I would get on I'm go like,
I'm gonna do a blind date thing. I'd be like, oh,
we can do blint she doesn't know what I look like.

(26:48):
I'm afraid you would see me to turn her phone off,
and that would hurt worse than a real blind date,
where they would have to at least sit there and
kind of humor the situation a little bit. It would
just be it would be like, nope, swipe out and
I would be gone. I would be gone, and everyone's
have I what in real life? Though? Have you ever
gone on a blind date? Not through an app? Yeah,
just way back in the day, because there's almost no
such thing anymore because of social media and stopped. Yeah.

(27:12):
Um yeah. Back in Austin, I had someone at the
radio station set me up with the girl and it
was fine. She was like, I got the perfect girl
for you. And then I walked in and I saw
her and I was like, oh, wow, she is cute.
And then that wasn't her that she was waiting for her.
Oh there's something I don't know. It seems like blind dates.
I only went on one myself and it didn't really

(27:33):
go that well, but still it seems like something that
before Google and all this, like it's kind of exciting
and fun, and now there there's no way you can
avoid looking someone up and finding out so much about
their life. I don't want to avoid looking someone up.
I want to look I want to see what's going on. Um, okay,
what else you got? Well, Luke Cones covered Morgan Wade's

(27:54):
Wilder Days because she's his tourmate, and I've got a
clip of him performing at you. So what they're doing
is playing a few stadiums, maybe four stadiums, maybe three stadiums, heck,
maybe one, I don't know, but they're playing football stadiums

(28:16):
and it's Luke Combs, Cody Johnson, Morgan Wade and somebody
else is there too, Zack Brian. Yeah. And so what
they did was Luke went out to the like fifty
yard line these football stadiums and played his stadium partners song.
So it's not like a big tour or anything, but
it's a These are massive shows. So in Luke Homs
is playing football stadium right, that's crazy, which is amazing

(28:39):
for him. All right, is that an amy? Yep? That's
my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time
for the good news. Eighteen year old Raleigh Silva's driving
his car and he stops at the ATAM. Got to
get some cash out, and he sets his wad on
the trunk of the car. Why he's using the walk

(29:01):
up ATM, gets his money, jumps back in the car, room,
drives off, gets home and realizes, oh, no, I lost
my wallet, goes driving back, can't find it, has to
tell his parents and they're like, you gotta be more responsible.
You got credit cards in there, you got your driver's
license in there. Well, then there's this guy Nick walking
his dog, finds the wallet, looks up the address, goes

(29:24):
knocks on the door. No one home, so he hides
it behind the little plant and they see it on
the security footage when they get home and they get
the wallet. Bad any cash in there? Now, no cash
because he got it out of the ATM and put
it in his pocket. So Nick didn't getting a reward.
You ever left anything on your car and driven off? Yes?
I knew you would have. Yeah, yeah, yeah, what you

(29:45):
name him? Stuff like that. You ever drive down the
road if people are like, hey, there's something on your car,
like point or is it? Oh? Sometimes people will point
if I leave the gas my gas thing open, Yeah,
they're like hey, or hanging out. Once I drove off
with the guesting in the oh Man a long time ago,

(30:08):
well two years, and I remember driving off and going
some doesn't feel right okay, Loo's like, what do you mean?
I don't know. I feel like I didn't do something
and they're pointing at We're driving, and I'm like, oh
my god. It happens when they point at you. Do
you know exactly what they're pointing at or you just
kind of pointing back like what? At first? He At first,
I'm like, hey, you listen to the show? Yeah? Yeah.

(30:31):
Then I realized, wait, something going on. Then trying to
figure it out, um, and then it hits me. But
it's like having a flat tire. Whenever I have a
flat tire. For a second, I think a helicopters over
the topic. I'm like, what's why is there a helicopter
up there? But then I realized it's my backtime, good story, lunchbox.
That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good.
What do you think is the most common last name

(30:51):
in America? Smith? Yeah? Smith is number one. Wow. In
second places Johnson, followed by Williams. Amy comes in Brown
four Amy, Brown's not common at all, Jones is five,
and Eddie comes in at Garcia at six. Six. Yes,
the most six last name, since my last name is Bones,

(31:13):
is Jones count for me? Everybody calls me that. Anyway,
Let's go over to Amy with the Morning Corny. The
Morning Corny. Why was the lamb putting time out? Why
was the lamb putting time out? Made some bad choices?

(31:33):
That was the Morning Corny. Speaking about names, I was
reading a story about kids first names and how now
and for the past three to five years, parents have
just been naming their kids odd things to make them
stand out. But now so many parents are naming their
kids odd things to make them stand out, that those
aren't the kids that are standing out anymore. Now it's
just normal to have a weird name, and that names

(31:55):
like Chris and Matt are the ones that stand out. Wow.
So the reason that you were doing that is now
the opposite of what's happening. I was reading some articles
similar to this talking about names and how parents get
frustrated when teachers can't get their child's name right. But
it's like something so bizarre, and it's like, okay, well
eventually we'll get what do you expect her to call them?

(32:17):
Or like not even just the teacher, but anybody like
to first try the name. And so they get frustrated
that nobody can understand their name and say it's like
creating problems with their child. And it's like, well, but
you you named your child. Yeah, it's tough because I
have some friends of name their kids weird things. But
I guess I don't want to call him out down
that road. And I was like, you know, but I'm
just not But Bob. I always thought Bobby was a

(32:41):
young person's name, and I thought, you know what, I'll
just be Bobby. I'll never be Bob because that's old, lame,
until I was like, I have a young guy, young
person can't was like Bobby, let's look it up. It
was like nineteen thirteen was one of the most popular.
I never knew Bobby was an old person's name. But
is it now young again? Because everything old is now new.
I think Bobby sounds young as you assume the old
way to say it, is Bobby sound young? Yeah? Why Bobby? Yeah?

(33:07):
I told Lunchbox, you can go to California, go to
Los Angeles and for a week audition to be on
every single game show. And Scuba Steve used to live there,
so you can tell Lunchbox where to go and who
to talk to. Now, we're not going to pay for it,
but in a way we are because we're not going
to dock your pay. You'll get paid to do the show. Yeah,
you just and you get to go to Los Angeles

(33:28):
and try to get on a game show. You thought
about this at all. I've been thinking about it all.
I mean, your wife say, I mean, she's down if
I'm gonna make money on these game shows. She's like,
I mean, that's like double pay day. It's a genius move,
double pay day. Yes, that's how we're looking at it.
So we have a couple of calls here Valerie and
Florida is on Valerie Hello, Good morning, Bobby morning, Good morning,

(33:49):
studio morning. Unfortunately, if you win, you are responsible for
the taxes on everything that you win. Okay, I mean,
so I win one hundred thousand dollars, they take five thousand,
but again it's more money than you started with. But

(34:10):
if you want one hundred thousand, they probably take forty.
Who but that's if you were a bonus one hundred
thousand and you know what, and then let them keep
the forty. I'll take sixty. Right, Okay, that's still getting paid.
That's still more money than you went with. That's right. Yeah.
What else, Valerie, Well, there's also um there could be
multiple taxes. You could have to pay the tax in

(34:30):
the state that you live in and in California, and
they also tack on what they call a gift tax.
Wouldn't be lunchboxes luck to go out one hundred thousand,
about one hundred and five. Yeah, you don't get it.
These people that go on these game shows and they
say they win all this money, they don't really win
it they do. There's just some taxes. This is America.
They tax things. So we have roads to drive on

(34:52):
because like we have police officers to save us what
something goes wrong. So we have firemen to put fires,
so we have schools. Yes, but there are taxes, yes, Valerie,
thank you for the call. You brought up a great point.
All right, La, you have a great day. Bye Bye.

high school and so we went out to out to
gre out there to try to get on the prices right.
But we didn't get on the prices right, but we
got on let's make a deal. What advice would you
give lunch Bars if he's going to go out and
try to get on the show, Not to try too
hard would be the main thing. Just kind of be yourself,
be natural, just talk to um, you know when, don't

(35:37):

you went to the grocery store and ran into a friend.
Just just be natural and be yourself. Yeah, I'm good
at that. I'm natural. I'm let's go over the top,

paid or whatever they wanted. He was unconscious and they

(44:13):
said this message will repeat in five seconds. It's a
really cool commercial for the Apple Watch. Well there's another story.
Amy Satterfield was relaxing when her Apple Watch showed that
her heart rate was high. The forty seven year old
owned her old yoga studio. She's a yoga there. If
she works out it every day, she eats healthy. Yet
her watch said, hey, you're a one twenty six and
normal rate should be sixty two one hundred. Her husband's

(44:35):
first responder, so they went to the hospital. It turned
out that a heart condition that she had had her
whole whole life and didn't know about it had suddenly
become a big problem, so they admitted her. She was
having heart failure. Her Apple Watch was like, hey, wow,
that's crazy, and they're smart enough to go to the
I wouldn't have been growing up. We didn't go to
the doctor because we had the money to go to
the doctor. And now I still live in that a
little bit, unless it's my throat because I got to work.

(44:59):
But so she had open heart surgery. I can quickly.
Does that make you want to wear your Apple watch?
I don't know. I don't have a watch on today,
but I'm just it's tough for me to be a
watch guy. Yeahs. Or they have those rings you can
wear that all like because on Billions, a ring detected
a heart attack. That's a TV show. I know I
should have. If I were smart, I'd have these things

(45:20):
all over my body because I'm always think I'm dying
of something. Yeah. Um, but no, I don't. I wear
my Apple Watch to work out, But not for any
of the reasons you would think, because you would think, oh,
what are you what are you looking at? Here? Your
your heart rate? Your calories burned? No, I just want
to know what time it is, so when it's over,
I'm just watching the time I come. Any more minutes
will this is over. So but that's a great story.

(45:40):
Saved her life, That's what it's all about. That was
tell me something good. It's now time for your big stories.
Bobby's story. American Airline says an unruly passengers the reason
behind a Sunday afternoon diversion. I would be so mad
if they made I'd be so mad. Flight seven teen

(46:00):
seventy five took off from LA was headed for Washington, DCA.
They had to land in Kansas City. A passenger aboard
the flight told CNN a man allegedly attempted to breach
the cockpit and had to be restrained by other passengers,
as well as hit over the head with an aircraft coffeepot.
I wouldn't wanted to land, but I'd have been fun
to see. But this is and they're also at the
same time ago we should get alcohol back on planes. Yeah,

(46:22):
good timing, guys. The passengers all had to be booked
on other flights, that would be it would be more
annoying than awesome. But if all that could happen and
you didn't have to divert and they could tape a
guy to a chair, that would be it. That's a
total package. Those airplane coffee pots, it's like metal. A
woman's kicked off an American Airlines flight for having a
nut allergy. So if you Draper was kicked off her

(46:43):
flight for having a severe nut allergy that crew members
claimed they could not accommodate. She was told the flight
was contractually obliged to sort of hot mixed nuts in
first and business class. She tweeted, I felt totally discriminated
against for a health condition to have no control over.
Her boyfriend followed a complate to the airline over a
month ago, but no serious action has been taken. So
I wonder if she was sitting in that section or

(47:04):
if writing a coach nobody can have peanuts. I think
everybody on the plane would be okay not having peanuts.
I don't think anybody gets upset with no peanuts. I
think I think. I think peanuts are cute and they're fun,
but I never get on a plane to go I
can't wait to give myself those warm peanuts. They come
up and I'm like, oh, peanuts, And there's a difference

(47:26):
in God's to have my peanuts and oh, well peanuts,
I forgot. Yeah, that's interesting. That's just peanuts. Though they're
talking about mixed nuts. You're talking almonds, yeah, rail mix yeah,
reevaluated Amy, what's your thought on that story? Oh? Yeah, no,
I was just gonna say, yes, the warm mixed nuts,
those are nice. But if you say, hey, on this flight,

(47:47):
we're gonna actually not gonna be able to have them
because someone might die. Then people then people might be like,
oh okay, cool, well we won't have our nuts today.
No hey saying that? All right? I'm Malaysian flight diverted
with past your spot a loose snake on the plane?
Oh oh whoa? Okay land the plane. Yeah, it's just
a snake. What are you talking about. It's not gonna
get up in the cockpit and attack one of the pilots.

(48:10):
What do you do with it? Domestic flight minute emergency
landing for fumigation when passengers on board the plane spotted
a snake on the loose. Oh no, air Asia confirmed.
But also it's like air Asia. Do you expect that?
I mean, I don't know. I've never been in an
Air Asia flight. Video posted to TikTok shows the snake

(48:31):
slithering through a light fixture in the overhead compartment. No no, no.
Carolines and the staff search the plane for the snake
after landing, but it was unclear whether the snake had
ever been located. There you go, they never found the snake.
That's even worse. I'm looking at the TikTok here. It's
a pretty big snake. It's about six feet long. Wow. Yeah,

(48:52):
looks like it probably with someone's pet they shouldn't have
had on it and it got out of I would
just blow the whole plane and getting rid of it.
All right. That's your news, Bobby's story. Here are your
top three songs in country music this week at number three,
and I do love this song. It's Kelsey Ballerini and
Kenny Chesney Half of my Hometown, Half of my Home.

(49:16):
Number two Morgan Wall and sand in My Boots gives
Me and Jimmy Allen and Brad Paisley. Freedom was a
highway number one. You didn't, I've decided. I like, if
they get a bad rap, it is imagine dragons. Yeah,

(49:37):
people make fun of them, like to do Nickelback, and
I think just by seeing them, I probably would too.
But a song was on the other day and I
was feeling it and I wasn't really paying attention, and
I was like, yeah, yeah, and I look, I said,
imagine dragons. And then I said, you know what, I
should stop judging people based on just their looks. Here's
imagine dragons. The number one alternative song right now called Enemy.
Everybody wants to be my mb This is my son. Yes, pretty,

(50:13):

went to dinner last night. I had a nice little dinner.

gift of all. Yeah away. So I had a nice
little little eye to eye no phone, had good conversation.
That's what's up, Eddie? You know me? The same thing
every year. I went to our a little sushi shop,

hung out, watch TV and just spend time together. Lunchbox,

don't know what it's called. Yeah, but yeah, that's what
we ordered and we ate it. The kids went to
bed about eight thirty. We watched two episodes at thirty
Rock and then night night. Was it anything different than

any other night? Ah? We never get that stuff that
fa fu yeah, spelled foe, which is what I called
it until my pronounced until my more civilized friends are like, hey,

so we we sports on that a little bit. But no,
it's just a typical night. Nico Jackson is back. Nico,
how are you? Yeah, I'm good, Bobby, Thanks for having me.

(52:02):
It's been a while since I've been here. I thought
you were mad at me. What for those that are
not aware or new to the show, Nico's one of
lunchboxes alter egos. Yeah, Nico Jackson, I'd like to make
some phone calls every now and then. And you named
Nico after who? Nico Moon, the singer. The singer he
came in. I was like, that's a good name, Nico.

(52:23):
Where did Jackson come from? I don't know. I just
came off the top of my head when I made
a call. Well, Nico Jackson called Sonic our sponsor here
and said, hey, can I get a reservation for Valentine's Day?
He pranked our sponsor. Let's see how it goes. How
can I help you? Oh, yes, ma'am, this is Nico
Jackson and I'm just calling because I want to make

(52:45):
some reservations. Okay, we don't do reservations. D Yes, ma'am.
You know it's Nico Jackson and my old lady, Sandy.
We love, we love to go out to dinner and
with Valentine's Day, you know, reserve vations are filling up fast,
and we just want to make sure we got a spot. Okay,
but you don't need to make a reservation. You can

(53:06):
just come in order. Yes, ma'am. You know Sandy, we've
been married fifty two years and reservations. Thank you very much,
and we like to, you know, I'd like to take
her out for a night on the town, you know,
and we get a little chocolate shake. She prefers strawberry,
and she likes that foot long chili cheese dog. Okay,

(53:27):
all right, well we'll see you on Valentine. Well, we
don't know what what time do you have available? We
like to eat around five five thirty. Do you have
any time you come? Do you do you have a
reservation open at that time? We don't do reservations. We'll
see you when you get here. Yeah, can we can
we do a reservation? Do you put flowers on the
table when we make a Valentine's reservation? I'm sorry, right

(53:49):
now our lobby is not open, so we only have
the stalls and dart. We can reserve that for five fifteen. Yeah,
but that's why we're making reservations. We want to make
sa Wait, wait, ma'am, wait, wait, do you not believe
in love? The poor lady's trying to do her job.
She's trying to get off the phone from the beginning.

(54:10):
That's tough. But she stays with you, and she stayed
with me. But she never said yes to my reservation.
I didn't know Nico was like seventy. I'm always confused
on his age. I didn't know he was married. Sandy Jackson. Yeah, Nico. Yeah,
he's an older guy. He's, you know, just getting up
there in age. That's why he talks like this. He's
lost a few teeth. The story grows. Yeah, Nico's just

(54:32):
an older man, talks a little slower, and I just
wanted some dinner reservation. Okay, thank you, Nico, You're welcome.
Have a great day, Bobby. All right, if you call
into the show, you'll talk to Abby, our phone screener,
and abbeys the singer. She's not. She is a singer.

(54:53):
Abbie loves to sing. She's pretty good at it. She's
sang with our band Raging Idiots, to a stage of
like five thousand people. She's sang at the Saint Jude
Marathon in front of twenty thousand people. She did her
version of the National Anthem. And now listen to all
the stations that are playing it. There's a list. W
R and S. Jacksonville, North Carolina, wow Q ninety four
point five, Bismarck, North Dakota Country one h seven three, Poughkeepsie,

(55:19):
New York thunder Country one hundred and three Florida Keys
one or three seventh the Gate or Gainsville, Florida one
or five point seven of the Bull in Augusta, Georgia,
and her version of the National Anthem has been added
to media base, giving any radio station across the country
an opportunity to add her song. Wow, that's really cool
is you didn't know we're gonna play it in a second?
Two four listeners that haven't heard Abbey's version of the

(55:39):
National Anthem. But Abby has something she would like to
say to Lunchbox, who has been very critical of her
pursuing not a singing career, but singing just for your enjoyment. Yeah,
what would you like to say to them? I mean,
because I grew up singing and everything, and like the
coolest thing about this is like when veterans call in
or active like military members and say how much it

(56:01):
means to them, and they got goose bumps and like
tears in their eyes, Like that is what's awesome. And
that's why I like I do this. I think that's
why any singer does that to like, if you can
get anyone's emotion or like touch them in any way,
That's why I want to And what I wanted to
say to Lunchbox was like he always saying it's it's
a make a wish or whatever, but it's like, it

(56:21):
was an opportunity presented to me and I took it,
and I'm like with his acting, let's say like a oh,
this is a good good good let me reset. Lunchbox said,
Abby getting to sing places is like someone granting her
a make a wish. That rude, Yeah it is, yes,
and you did you say that? Yeah? I said, this
whole national anthem thing is a make a wish because
she begged the station to play her version. That's what happened.

(56:42):
I did not beg. You did not beg. He offered. Now,
compare it to his acting career that he's trying, yes,
pursue a uh huh, because he, you know, said he's
about to take more acting classes. But what if like
a director like Steven Spielberg came up to you and
offered you, like, if you want to turn in like
an audition tape, would you do that? If you know
you're not that great when you will still do it? Yeah,

(57:03):
that would be fine. But Steven Spielberg didn't come to you.
You went to him and said, hey, you're playing my
national anthem. He's like, no, I've never heard it, but
i'll play it. I guess like he didn't come to
you because he heard you, because you were great. You
went to him thinking he had already heard you and
never heard you. That's not a true story either, said
Abby Anderson's version has been played on the radio. So

(57:24):
I got him on and asked him and he said, yes,
Abby Anderson, but it's a different Abby Anderson. So that's
an easy confusion. Yeah, right, and so he didn't. She
didn't pursue the station to go did you play my song?
I said, A listener called and said, you're playing Abby Anderson?
Was it the one? He goes, no, but I'll play
it if it's good, And then it's good, and he
played it. However, the opportunity comes your way, Lunchbox, just

(57:45):
put all of this other stuff aside. Would you take
the opportunity. What I'm saying is it's not like someone
heard it and was like I have to have that version.
That's what you guys make it sound like, is that
someone heard Abby all these other stations did. Anyway, he's
not setting the Society's not answering the question. If Steven
Spielberg came to you and said, yes, I've heard you act, Okay,
I would love to have you on my movie. Yes, absolutely,

(58:05):
But that's that's what I'm saying. He heard about how
good I was. This guy never heard about Abbey being good. Abby.
What is your question to him? I mean, I don't
think he's going to answer it. He said, yes, okay, yeah,
but Lunchbocks, you're not that good. Okay, I don't think

(58:25):
you're a good actor. Yeah, okay. He's red lights on
Zoom like he faces. Lunch Boks pays three hundred dollars
a month to take online Zoom acting classes, and that
is his extent, that's his acting resume. Abby hasn't paid
anybody to sing. You're you're paying to act. Abby has
taking singing lessons her life. She has been paying a

(58:46):
lot of money for something. No, I haven't taken. I
don't take singing less not anymore. You don't know. I
really didn't. She was a singing group. Yeah, I just
grew up singing. But yeah, I did not pay three
hundred You know what. I feel like he just brought
nastiness out of I want to take it back. I
don't like you're a bad actor. I just don't happy

(59:08):
as a singer, lunchbox as an actor, happy as a singer. Yeah,
but he's just so rude to her. It just annoys
me so much. Like you can't just times you guys
brought this to me. I didn't bring this. I you
asked my opinion, You asked me a question. I gave
you an answer. So I don't think we ever really
asked She did ask me a question. She just asked

(59:29):
me a question. Say I'm being rude at the beginning.
I don't think we ever said, hey, do you think
she's good? No, you did. You went around and said, hey,
what did you think of that performance? That's not that good?
You You actually went around to everybody in the room,
not the national anthem, it's my point, not the one,
not the recorded version, because it was just good. Yeah,
because auto tune in reverb can make anybody sound decent.

(59:53):
I would be you know, I'd be happy for you
if you got to do something like that. So why
can't you just be happy? Can't you just be happy
for her? It's he's not taking anything from you. I'm
so happy for you, because here's the problem. Okay, she
really think she's good, that's the problem. The version is great,
we're gonna play it. Why do you feel like if
you whisper that at me like she can't hear him.

(01:00:14):
But for Christmas, she bought her a book, Singing for Dummies.
I was trying to listen. Does she want to get better?
Did that book? Did you actually look in the book?
Did it have actual tips on how to become a
better singer? Did it? I took a glance. Did it
answer the question? Did it actually have real tips? It
actually did? Yeah? Thank you, That's all I'm gonna say.
So you guys say they have taxes for dummies. They

(01:00:36):
have that's a little stick is for dummies because it
teaches you how to do things. Yeah, so that's what
I was doing. But you guys see it as rude,
but it's actually when he's ready to fight somebody, you can't. Well,
it's just like, I mean everything I do, I do it,
I do something nice, and it's like taking us. You
weren't trying to be nice. You aren't trying to be nice.

(01:00:56):
You aren't trying to be nice. You aren't trying to
be nice. And stop that. Wait, would he be offended
if I got him acting for dummies? No? No, no,
he was just a god to help me act better. Abby, congratulations,
I would love to I would love to see the
song chart. Wow. Who wouldn't that be crazy awesome? All right,
we're gonna play it now. Okay, this is Abby Anderson

(01:01:20):
our phone screener. Don't do it, lunchbox, don't do the voice.
This is like we need to respect this respect now,
her and the song. If you won't respect, you have
to give respect. Oh okay, well I'm gonna remember that
with Amy because she didn't give me respect. I just apologize.
I felt bad. I took it back. You're not good? Hilarious. Okay,

(01:01:41):
Here is Abby with the star spangle banner, the national anthem,
Oh can't you see bother do? What's so ham the

(01:02:02):
two wins less cleaming whose broad stripes samber stars through
the pairrofied or the ramparts? We wa we're so gamingly

(01:02:25):
streaming ha the wrong canserag the balls burstinging gave proof
through the night, then a flag wor stilling all seers,

(01:02:50):
The stars spinled banner away the list the foe Hamma
of the down. Sorry today. This story comes to us

(01:03:21):
from Wisconsin. Two twenty year old women were at a
restaurant and they were sitting there and they ordered their
food and it comes out and they start going bersert
all because there was a missing hamburger. They forgot the hamburgers.
So the people are like, hey, calm down, no, you
need to fix this, and they said, you guys need
to leave the restaurant. So they left the restaurant, came
back and shot one of the employees. Oh gosh, well

(01:03:43):
this was going in the direction of like you and
how you treat people a restaurant exactly until shot the employee. Yeah,
you weren't gonna you were going berserk because your pizza
was the wrong size. You're right, but I just didn't
shoot anybody. He ordered the large he said, it's bigger, nat,
that's not mine. That ain't I'm not even look at that.
I got the bigger one. Man. When you put it

(01:04:04):
that way, maybe I was going like these ladies. So
I'm assuming I'm hoping the person that was shot is
actually okay. Yes he is okay, thank goodness. And it
was all because there wasn't a hamburger. You got to
be some level of disrespect after that, though, too, Like
you don't shoot someone for just not putting a hamburger.
There must have been a fight, and he says, I'm
destrictful to her. You think maybe the person taking the
order and had earbuds on. Oh I think about that too,

(01:04:26):
didn't understand. Okay, I'm lunchbox at your bone head. Story
of the day. It's the good News countdown, counting down
the biggest good news stories across the left. Let's go
in number three. Number three firefighters in Illinois delivered a
baby in the parking lot of a Jimmy John's when

(01:04:47):
the parents couldn't make it to the hospital in time
during a snowstorm. Here is Chief John Stratton breaking down
what happened. Once I got him into the parking lot.
I opened the door up and started an examination of
mama and notice were having a baby. I wrapped the
baby up, we cut the cord, the dad got the cord,
which is cool, and we took the baby angel the
animals from there. That's crazy that they delivered a baby

(01:05:08):
at Jimmy Johns. I bet they delivered it fast. Okay. See,
I knew somebody was gonna say that freaky fast. A
video is going viral of a grandmother being surprised at
Disney World on her seventieth birthday by her entire family.
While she was getting a picture snapped of her, the
grandmother's children and grandkids appeared, I don't know where and
joined the shot. Here's the moment that Charissa Schaeffer and

(01:05:30):
the rest of the family surprised her grandma by joining
the picture. That's how I feel when you guys are
getting a picture of the the same way. Why a
fifty two year old guy you to spend a lot

(01:05:51):
of time hunting for stuff with his metal detector, But
he gave it up when he started a family, but
he got back into it. His kids are getting a
little bit older at ten or so now, so we
got a metal detector. He bought it's a pawn shop
and looked around for like fifteen minutes and he found
an old coin. It was like, well, this looks old
thirteenth century gold coin worth eight hundred and seventy five thousand,
post a million dollars. That the good news countdown. We'll

(01:06:14):
see you guys tomorrow. By everybody, never never shop, Let's
go
