Speaker 1 (00:03):
Transmitting Welcome to Thursday Show Morning Studio Morning.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Two guests later on George Burge, he's got mind on
you and he's got cowboy songs and I think his
wife's coming with them, so we're gonna try to get
them both on. And then also the guy named Austin
Tanner who went to the CMAS took a picture. He's
a country artist, hasn't made it yet, but he shouldn't
have come to the CMAS because he's like, I'm like
probation and they were like, don't leave the state, but
(00:34):
he did and took a picture. And now I think
he wears an ankle monitor. Now we can't have him
in studio, but we can have them on zoom because
he can't leave the state. We'll talk to him coming
up to I think Raymond of those get a brilliant idea.
Because I was driving in this morning and it was
not my fault. I've been very cautious when I drive
into our parking garage. Our parking garage is a multi
(00:54):
level wrap around because we now are new office is
in basically a really tall no building, probably like forty
stories hire something and so like there's like six levels
of wrap around parking wrap rap rap rap, and people
can flying around that thing. Somebody almost hit me this morning.
Was not my fault because I used a little mirror
(01:14):
and I drive slow because I've been the situation too
where I've been like, oh God, alhmo's got somebody. Ray
Mundo thinks we should bet on the first person to
get in an accident.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Energy hold on elaborate Ray.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
We would each put in twenty five dollars into a pot.
You pick who you think is gonna get in the
first accident, and whoever it gets into that first accident,
you would either win the money or lose the money.
It would be awesome. It's gonna keep everybody attentive so
that you're not being the person to get in the accident.
And for the love of God, can we please just
call it out that parking garage is a disaster waiting
to happen.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Somebody's gonna get an accent. So what if we don't
actually put money on it?
Speaker 3 (01:49):
What do you mean because there are odds like he
has the odds of the person.
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Because I already can guess he probably has me. Am
I the number one pick you're Ray is.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
The one that added everybody the odds on. The number
one pick is Amy already, which I would put all
my money on at two to one, So that's the
meaning you get two dollars for every one dollar ready bed,
So she's the one, if better, she's the heavy favorite.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
She's the Kansas City Chiefs of getting into a wreck.
That's awesome.
Speaker 6 (02:14):
Does it have to be a moving vehicle or can
it just be a wreckoned to any matter?
Speaker 5 (02:18):
It's a good point because I do tend to hit
non moving on That's what I was thinking.
Speaker 7 (02:22):
You're stationary.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
But that's the thing too, and it doesn't have to
be your fault. Right, So Amy is the favorite. We'll
just keep up with them. We have to put money
on it, so it could be backing into a pillar,
It could be anything, and they have.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
To the pillars are huge and they take up more
spot than they should. Yes.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Next up is Morgan at four to one because she
has so ray ducks. Yes, I mean she drives a jeep.
I'm surprised you can see to get up the garage
with nobody else driving around.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Good point.
Speaker 8 (02:49):
Listen, if I if I get a new car, I'm
gonna have to get one with all the technology so
I can see everything around me because those poles do
parking in that jeep and how wide it is parking
with those poles.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
I mean you're saying pole, Jim Ducks. Are you saying that?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Okay, next up, and we're about the same he has,
Eddie and I I'm.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
At twelve to one, fifteen to one? Why am I next?
Ray you? Just because you said you've already gotten a
couple of rims?
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Not really the term for that. I he's I did
scratch my rim on a what do you call it?
I mean, not that amy, I did scratch my rim on,
like the entrance thing because it's stupid.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
So fair. Are you talking about the high curb?
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yes, oh that's a good hill, the high curb scratch
yeah yeah, yeah, better than raise.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
But that's not an accident. But has damage damaged? That's
an accident.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
It would be hitting a car or you or a
pole or someone would say, oh, you've been in an accident.
There's a little scratch on the wheel. I just got
a buffed out. That's not an accident.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Well then, Eddie, why Eddie? He got yelled at. He
already had that confrontation.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
He's sloppy and his lunchbox the lowest because he rides
his bike sometimes just a numbers game.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Yeah, I didn't really know. Has he switched to a car?
Is he still doing the parking it downstairs in the
bike rack? Because then he's by far like the best.
Speaker 7 (04:07):
One to Well he could get hit by a car.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Well he did, he died. Yeah, that'd be bad. Are
you driving it all on the bike? I do fifty
to fifty? What do you drive my wife's car? Do
you plan on getting a car? Eventually? The odds will
change when he gets a car.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Okay, but that's what Ray has added us out. Amy
is the heavy favorite to be in the first accident
with Morgan, like saying this out loud, it is.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
What it is.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Amy, Okay, I'm not going to would you mind saying Spanish? Mike?
Amy will be the one to the odds, Amy said Meddle, Exactly,
there we go.
Speaker 7 (04:44):
M hmm.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Okay, So where do we bet?
Speaker 7 (04:47):
I don't hear you where you.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Bet I'm in?
Speaker 2 (04:51):
There's got to be a house, because there are odds
there's no house, So raise the house. He'll never pay.
We're not going to do anyway. Good luck here, buddy,
because uh I work out there. It's rough out there.
Somebody's gonna happen.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
Especially the timing thing like stupid parking garages or genius
flying down.
Speaker 9 (05:08):
And don't trust that mirror because that maror is pointed down.
That mirror does. The mirror works. It's helped me a.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Couple of stop.
Speaker 7 (05:14):
I'm going to admit this right now here.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Hit there the corner mirror that tells you around the curve.
It's a big bubble just got worse.
Speaker 5 (05:23):
Actually, if you think about her one to one, because
now I know that there's a tool.
Speaker 10 (05:29):
Yeah, Anonymous, the question to be, Hello, Bobby Bones.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I recently brought my kid to a birthday party. Was
at a gaming place, and the kids were playing the
games and the parents had cocktails and beers.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
The adults were drinking.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I didn't think there's anything wrong with it, but some
of the other kids' parents thought it was a bad idea,
and we're looking down on it. And my family we
almost always have some sort of liquor available at anyone's party,
even if it's a kid. I know you don't drink, Bobby,
but do you think it's okay to serve alcohol at
kids parties? For adults from Science Social Drinker. I'm gonna
have to recuse myself from this because I don't drink
(06:21):
and I have kids, so like both Like, I don't
feel like there's anything wrong with it, but my opinion
holds no water here Amy you first, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
No, I think that I've seen alcohol at kids' birthday parties,
and it also makes me think of Halloween, where that
is all about kids and trigger treating and most parents
are drinking that entire too.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
We got a road Yeah, we took a roadie take.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
A roady to go trigger treating, and so I know
that's just once a year, but that is something that
is predominantly for kids, and adults are everywhere, and a
lot of times they have cocktail in hand.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Yeah, and I guess if someone's not doing a keg stand.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Yeah, Like a lot of the it's the environment and
the people that are there.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
But okay, Eddie, I.
Speaker 9 (07:00):
Grew up in South Texas where yeah, so and so
is turning five years old, But it wasn't about that.
The whole city showed up and there were pignatas in
a DJ and like just live music or whatever and beer,
like lots of beer, and that's kind of how I
grew up. Now, when I got older and I married
a white woman, things changed a little bit because you know,
(07:25):
like the first time, you know, I think my son
turned one or whatever, and I'm like, all right, let's
get some beers or whatever. She's like, what do you mean,
Like what are we getting beers? Because that's not really
how her family did it. But I think there's somewhere
in the middle that you can do it. Have a
few cocktails for the adults if they want to drink,
it's okay.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
But behave yourself.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Not a bad thing though, You're just it's not like
you should look down on the alcohol at that party.
Speaker 6 (07:48):
Pretty Much every kid's birthday party I have been to
since having kids has alcohol. We went to one this
past weekend and they said there's a bounce house in
the back for the kids. There's mimosas inside for the parents.
So I mean every birthday party has alcohol. Uh, soccer
team party, they had alcohol for kids or for you No,
for the adults.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
You know, soccer the kids soccer.
Speaker 6 (08:09):
Kids play soccer too, right, You're right, my fall kids
soccer team. You go and they have alcohol available for
the parents.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
So it's like shots it's always like this is a drink.
Speaker 7 (08:19):
Couple drinks in another room, maybe.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
But it's not like we're doing shots.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
It's if it's drink, it's like a momsta like a line, right,
got it? Okay, so I guess all three of a heck,
why not me?
Speaker 3 (08:28):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
All four of us say that it's not a big
deal as long as the advice is handled appropriately.
Speaker 9 (08:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Yeah, and you're not giving it to the kids, correct,
that'd be a different that's important.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
Yes, Okay, all right, good, we all agree in that.
Close it up? All right, boys, mail, let's.
Speaker 9 (08:42):
Go head, Bobby.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
I am driving them after a very long travel thing
and you're just calling to say that.
Speaker 7 (08:50):
I literally could listen to Ray and Scuba.
Speaker 9 (08:53):
Steve just laughed back and forth at each other, and
it would just crack me up.
Speaker 7 (08:58):
Thanks for the show and for keeping you.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Ray and Scoop Steeve in the glassroom. And we can't
hear them unless they turn their MIC's on. There's a separation,
there's a barrier, but sometimes we can see them and
I can see when Raymond will laughs so hard but
I can't hear it, and I go, Ray, why'd you laugh?
That's mostly when I'll check in with Ray when I
see him just laughing, because Ray doesn't laugh a lot.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Unless it's really funny, unless it's just like really odd.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
But uh yeah, I know I agree when those two
get laughing because they hear everything.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
That's how you know something's funny.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
I appreciate that calls Amy's pile of stories.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
So, Bobby, I thought of you because I saw a
clip of Martha Stewart on Drew Barrymore's show, and she
was talking about how she gets guessed to leave her
house when the party is over.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Yes, what she does? You tell them before they even
get their way, time the party's over to go.
Speaker 7 (09:44):
Home, okay, well or or or my favorite.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
If you forget to do that, you go on, you
put your shorts and your cutoff on, and you walk
back out while everybody's still dressed and you and you
don't say anything, but they're like, oh, obviously it is
cut off T shirt and shorts. That's seen the I
think that, like, that's my move move. If I've forgotten this,
say hey, everybody, it's gonna be wrapping at nine thirty
or something.
Speaker 5 (10:03):
Yeah, well, you've also done this exact thing that she suggests,
which is, Hey, I'm gonna go to bed.
Speaker 7 (10:09):
I'll see you later.
Speaker 5 (10:10):
And if they don't get the hint from that, she
just starts turning off the lights.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Oh hardcore. I can respect it. And what do you
do about that?
Speaker 2 (10:19):
You know what you just do is you say, hey,
the parties from da da da da da da and
look to have everybody out by this time. And nobody
gets their feeling start when it's said in front of
the time because they don't feel like they're the one
that's being annoying and staying too late. But I have
I'm not too good to go in and change my
clothes and I'll come out and pay razor back shorts
and a cut off, no sleeves and like, huh, time
(10:39):
for bed.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Weh sit down in the middle of everybody still talking,
No problem with that.
Speaker 5 (10:43):
Mirriam Webster announced its word of the Year, and it
is polarization. It's defined as division into two sharply distinct opposites,
which obviously that was a popular word this year with
the election happening, and in no particular order. The other
finalists were totality, No, why I.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Know what it means?
Speaker 7 (11:03):
Well, the eclipse was in April.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Oh, I don't remember that.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
It feels like something, uh demure Fortnite because of Taylor Swift.
It's in her song pander Resonate. And then allision is
the final word that was in running for Word of
the Year, and that is from when the boat hit
the bridge.
Speaker 7 (11:25):
That's what that's called.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I remember what year that was. That was this year,
I think that because that's the story.
Speaker 5 (11:32):
But when a boat hits a stationary object, it's called
an allision.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
The power was out, remember they lost power, and then
people were thinking it was hackers. It's terrible. But also,
how about Fortnite a little bit too? Is the game
as well because they put out a new version this
year as well?
Speaker 7 (11:46):
Oh you think so?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Yeah, And the game's way bigger than the song.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I'm not saying it's not the song, but I mean
that's the game is a cultural monster.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
So the game is called Fortnite, but I know a
Fortnite is two weeks, fourteen days.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Yeah, but the O A. Lincoln timeline didn't make the bill.
Speaker 7 (12:00):
But like, why is Fortnite called Fortnite?
Speaker 3 (12:01):
I'm not no clue.
Speaker 5 (12:04):
And then I have tips from a psychiatrist, doctor Daniel Ahman,
You've probably seeing him on social media a lot. But
he recommends that we start each day with these simple
eight words and it can turn everything around. And those
eight words are today is going to be a great day.
It just puts your subconscious on notice that that's the
direction you want to go in. It's no guarantee the
(12:26):
day's gonna be perfect, but he knows what we're talking about,
and he studies the brain.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Well, I got five words I do. What's that?
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Has anyone seen my phone? And that's how you start
your day? And that's it.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
That's it.
Speaker 7 (12:38):
I'm haty, that's my file.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the
good news. Ready.
Speaker 9 (12:49):
Paul Desosa is a sergeant for a sheriff's department in Florida.
But he was in Dollywood with his family vacation. He's
hanging out with his family doing some rides when he
hears like somebody crime for hell. Looks over and there
is a boy unresponsive. He's not breathing and he's turning blue.
So what does Sarge do? He runs over there, he says,
let me help. Does the heimlick can't really find anything
(13:10):
like lodge in his throat? So he does CPR and
then another paramedic who's also on vacation not on duty,
shows up says, let me help.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
They start working on him.
Speaker 9 (13:19):
They get him back breathing, and the kid's gonna be
fine because those two were there at the park, so
just happened to be cops of paramedics and near Bob.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
And I bet you Dolly, what's full of people like that?
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Though? That's a pretty like normal person job. Yeah yeah,
I think so, like normal people care about other people.
I can do that job normal Parson jo.
Speaker 9 (13:36):
Also two side note, I saw that Keith Urban and
Nicole Kidman were Dollywood just hanging out.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Yeah, hanging out.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Well, if somebody was like, please help, I need to
learn a guitar solo, I'm here for you.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Which which selo would you like? Which? Which key would
you like it in? That's it's awesome. Were the names?
What are the names?
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Again?
Speaker 9 (13:55):
Well, it's just Sergeant Paul Dessa is the only one
I know from Florida. But that's paramedic down. I don't
know his name. The story wasn't really about him, but
I threw him in there because I thought that was
pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
All Right, we'll call it paramedic, good guy, good girl,
paramedic Pete? Well could it be a girl?
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Well?
Speaker 3 (14:07):
True, that's a good story. That's what it's all about.
That was telling me something good.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
There's a story, it's a Hollywood story where somebody casts
somebody to be like their girlfriend and it's causing controversy.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
And I'll talk about that in a second. Amy.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
If there was a movie and you're like, okay, on
an act of the movie, this is you and I'm
going to cast somebody to be my boyfriend or husband,
Like who would you cast?
Speaker 7 (14:28):
Probably like Ryan Gossling.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Perfect answer, because the way that they're hating on Taylor Sheridan,
who created Yellowstone, who Landman all those shows, right, Taylor
Sheridan has appeared several times throughout the series and Yellowstone
and he rides the horses. He's like a horseman. He's
good on those horses too. In the episode he played
(14:50):
a major role in the story. There was him playing
poker and there's a bunch of women there and his
girlfriend who had cast as a girlfriend was Belahadide.
Speaker 7 (14:57):
Oh yeah, Like, isn't that.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
What you would do if you could?
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Like just wars and the story for Fox News and
I asked that with Amy because she would go Ryan
Gosling or any Yeah, of course, you shoot for the stars.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Yeah, man, and.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
The fact that people are like buzzing his chopped But.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
What would you expect him to do? Yeah, he's not
gonna get someone that's not I go for the biggest,
most beautiful person ever. That's yeah. So any problem with
that at all? No, I got no problem with it.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Would you cast lunch Box if there was a senior
to cast man?
Speaker 6 (15:31):
This is tough, man, there's real tough. There's so many
hottings out there. I mean, Jennifer Lawrence is smoking hot now.
Halle Berry, she may be a little pastor prime.
Speaker 7 (15:39):
Oh my gosh, shut up.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
No, No, I love halle Berry. Amy.
Speaker 5 (15:43):
I'm just saying it's not necessary. You don't have to
say that. That was beautiful Amy. That was my number
one draft pick forever.
Speaker 6 (15:49):
But but she may be a little pastoral prime, Jennifer wyd.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
I don't know. There's still a lot of ladies. That's
a good point.
Speaker 9 (15:59):
Like they have to accept the role too, right, Like
if they found out it was Lunchboxes, they were.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Like, but it's a check though. Yeah, halle Berry is
fifty eight? Does that pass prime? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Past prime? Man, that's on that's on the other side,
it's down the hill. Bella Hadida is twenty eight, so
she is, Hey, let me take it. She's really hot.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
So Taylor Taylor Sheridan's fifty four, she's twenty eight. Any
issue with that? I got no casting it.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
They're acting. I hey, wait, just acting man. And he's
also like a really good, like strong fifty four like Chisel.
Speaker 7 (16:28):
Yeah he doesn't look fifty four.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, So everybody forget about the idea.
I mean, let's all be honest. We do the same thing.
Who would you? Who would you?
Speaker 2 (16:34):
My wife set you up? He didn't set me up
for crap, Morgan, who would you cast?
Speaker 7 (16:41):
Oh Chris Evans?
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Wow, I'm shocked you didn't go what's his name?
Speaker 7 (16:45):
Uh Riley Green?
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Or the other guy though, the one she likes, the
one pretty little anything she does anything else just attacker.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
We mean, oh, hey, let her just picked Chris Evans
and move on instead of being like all the other
that she's called. You know, you guys are haters. If
I got a defender like Chris happens with America the Shield,
I will Chris hapvens awesome, Like, good, look at it?
I said, who it's in haks cap Who would you
pick you?
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Gwynethought Trow for sure? Easy? Yeah, that prime thing to
talk about.
Speaker 9 (17:18):
What's so dumb is he got older too, Like we're
all getting older together, so like I'm not gonna get
a twenty year old. I'm gonna get Gwyneth thought Trow
because she's been my number one draft picks since forever ago.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Oh you know another one, Zoe Kravitz.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Why do you grind? You just say the issues? And
also we can't pick two? You cheated him?
Speaker 6 (17:35):
Anyways, I know, but I'm maybe I'm going back on.
You can have an understudy, yep, that's right. Just a
Broadway play, bro, they get sick. You gotta have someone
a Broadway play.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
That's funny. Okay. Anyway, I justice for Taylor Sheriedan is
what I say. Thank you on the Bobby Bones Show. Now,
George Burg, George Burg and his wife Caroa. Look who's here?
What's up?
Speaker 11 (17:57):
Guys?
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Hey? George? Hey Caro. Hey, So you did not know
you were gonna be on? I appreciate you coming here.
Speaker 12 (18:03):
No, I didn't. I thought I was just the driver
this morning.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
I know, and I love your husband very much, so
I feel like I can eliminate him from our conversation
and you and I can just have this person.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
And you've been to the house, so we're cool. We're
all good. So don't be up. Don't be irritated at
me when I ask these questions. Did you ever think
he wouldn't make it?
Speaker 8 (18:19):
Well, it's been ten years in Nashville. It's definitely been
a roller coaster. I wouldn't say that I didn't think
he was going to make it or couldn't make it.
I think there were times that we were like definitely
having to reevaluate what did the next five years look like?
Speaker 12 (18:32):
What did the next ten years look like?
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Yeah, in a way of like he has all the
talent in the world, but this talent is weird. Like
the most talented people ever sometimes don't make it. The
least talented people sometimes next thing you know, they're massive stars.
And I just wonder, like if a family, yes, there'd
be a lot of years he was grinding making the
little to no money and you're at home with the
kids going like, what's the deal here?
Speaker 8 (18:55):
I know, it's it's a wild ride. I will say,
we have never stopped dreaming. But I love that. George
is also like a smart business guy, and he's smart
and he leads our family well. So there've been tough conversations,
but I would say I'm always the.
Speaker 12 (19:10):
One pushing him to not stop.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
George was going, I wouldn't let him give up.
Speaker 11 (19:14):
She is being humble. There was I mean, you don't.
This is the business where you make nothing until you
make everything. There's not like an in between where you're
making like what you would make it a comfy desk
job or anything like that. It's like it's zero dollars
until you're rich. And so she was hustling selling real estate,
raising kids, and you know, I'm on the road playing
(19:36):
dive bars to nobody. And she never wore me out
about it. She always believed in it. She always knew
it was gonna happen. And like I carried a lot
of guilt about that, especially when we had young kids
and I'm the you know, a husband not really providing
much and chasing a dream and very selfishly one sided
on that. And so now that we're sitting here like
(19:57):
on the cusp of having a second hit and like
everything coming together, and we got to write Walk the
CMA Red Carpet together this year, and like, you know,
seeing the fruits of all that, it's pretty special.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Yeah, I'm gonna play a cowboy song in just a second. George,
would you mind me sharing a story with your wife?
A story that you told me that I don't think
you would mind me sharing with your wife. I just
need a contument. I know it's a good story.
Speaker 11 (20:21):
I would love that.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
I just have a confirmation.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Georgia birthday was recently, so George likes, on my birthday,
come with me, and I'm like, no doubt, drop everything
we do Georgia Birthday. And so George and I are
together and Carrie talks about you glowingly all the time.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
It's all the time, even when you're not around.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
And that's how, you know, is how somebody really feels
when they talk about how they talk about somebody when
they're not around.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
And he said, we're getting ready to do a lot
of the stuff that and he was super excited.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
He hasn't really been able to do, which is like
be celebrated at awards and Songwriting Awards and the CMA's
And he said, you know, we're doing the CMA red
carpet and we're talking about that and he goes ker
put the dress on that she's wearing, Oh buddy, And
I thought that was like, as you know, as funny
as it is, but also I was like, man, that's
(21:05):
a husband that like really loves his wife.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Because you guys have been together for how long.
Speaker 11 (21:09):
Since we were eighteen?
Speaker 3 (21:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 12 (21:10):
I think fifteen years.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
And he was still like gushing at the fact that
you had put on this dress and how great you
looked and how excited.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
It wasn't about him. It was about you getting to
go and do something that he hoped you would think
was awesome.
Speaker 8 (21:22):
Yes, that's true. He actually picked my dress. I sent
him options.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
He didn't tell me that part.
Speaker 8 (21:29):
Well, he voted, he voted, okay, my vote always went.
Speaker 12 (21:32):
I let him. I let him choose.
Speaker 11 (21:34):
No chance she would have let me pick it out,
but I could get like ABC options. Yeah, he's going
together in like March. She kind of guided me. There
were no wrong choices, but yeah too.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
How was the right car? How was the c speak
at the right carpetal thing?
Speaker 12 (21:48):
Awesome?
Speaker 8 (21:49):
I love nothing more than to watch him interview because
I feel like he's just really good at it. And
to see him have such like genuine connections with all
of those people the room that like know and just
respect him, and I feel like to see him belong
in that environment is really something special.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
It was.
Speaker 11 (22:08):
It was definitely surreal. Like I remember, we're waiting. When
you get there, there's a step and repeat where everybody
takes like their CMA picture, and it was us, and
it was Cody Johnson and his wife behind us, which
Cody is obviously like another level of fame. I'm waiting
to get my picture taken. And I turn around and
Kara's made best friends with Cody Johnson's wife and they're
just chatting it up there on the carpet and she's
in her head to toe gown and we're you know,
(22:30):
lights and carpets and everything, and I was looking behind her.
I was like, this is pretty cool about this. This
is different.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Yeah, on the Bobby Bones Show now, George Burgs, So
basically you got two number ones. Are you playing shows
now where you headlined and they're buying tickets to see you?
And if so, is that cool? Is that a change up?
Speaker 11 (22:48):
So that's very new, But yes, it's it's happening, especially
has been towards the end of the year, and I
still have a lot of like hard to believe that
we're here feelings. And so even when we, you know,
are having success and we've been going out and playing
these sold out shows with headliners as openers. Now that
we're headlining shows ourselves with our name on the bill,
(23:08):
I still have anxiety all day until I walk in
there and see the crowd. But we've been selling out
shows as a headliner, which is I mean, they're obviously
smaller rooms, but you know, to go to cities that
I've never been to before and have a thousand people
show up and buy tickets, that's not something I'm used to,
and it's it's a really really cool feeling.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Yeah, Carol, What does he get most anxious about?
Speaker 8 (23:26):
George kind of like flies by the seat of his
pants and last minute loves to like pack the morning
of the trip, so I kind of know to expect
that he gives.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
So you get anxious about him doing that?
Speaker 8 (23:37):
Yes, yes, yes, yes, He's like have you seen those jeans?
And I'm like, I know where everything is. He if
I'm not there, he calls me and he's like.
Speaker 12 (23:44):
Do you know where this is.
Speaker 11 (23:46):
I leave for Canada this afternoon, and I packed last
night and Carol walked in and she's like, are you
actually packing the night before? I was like, yeah, I'm.
Speaker 12 (23:54):
Very glad too, because he's going to the airport right
after this.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
On the way to the airport, it's like, do I
need a coach?
Speaker 7 (23:59):
Oh?
Speaker 12 (24:00):
The weather? Yeah he missed the weather. Quit.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
I didn't mean a coach. I brought a coat.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
George AND's wife Kara or in studio, Kara, can you
tell me the story about how you guys met, the
real story?
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Go for it?
Speaker 7 (24:13):
What do you mean the real is there?
Speaker 12 (24:15):
In college?
Speaker 10 (24:16):
Like?
Speaker 12 (24:16):
How descriptive can I be?
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Do you have a fake one though that you tell people?
Speaker 8 (24:20):
We just are like, oh we met in college, Okay.
Speaker 11 (24:22):
You know the real one will sound fake.
Speaker 8 (24:24):
The real one is like we were at a costume
party and we were eighteen years old, and he was
in a fraternity and he was a pledge, and so
he was dressed as a smurf, his whole body painted blue,
and I was in some like cute eighties dress because
it was like eighty s theme night. But if you
were a freshman, they gave you like a prank that
you had to dress up as. And he was a
(24:45):
smurf and like no shirt painted blue. I have a
picture somewhere.
Speaker 12 (24:50):
And kind.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
And he had Smurf is like really good looking though
that's tough.
Speaker 12 (24:56):
He was. He was kind of weird and funny.
Speaker 11 (24:58):
You know, she's always like me person, but we were like.
Speaker 8 (25:02):
It wasn't until later in college. That's when we first met.
And then we went on some date parties together.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
And what was the first date? What was the first
date party? I think we can call this a date.
Speaker 11 (25:14):
So next to the fraternity house that I was in,
I brought her to a party where eighteen were freshmen.
We go out, have a party, hang out together that night,
and I took her to Jack in the Box after
the party and she got a chicken tenders and Queso
fries and I immediately fell in love after that.
Speaker 5 (25:30):
Girl, your late night meal is your first date.
Speaker 12 (25:35):
We kind of roched a lot of fun in college.
Speaker 11 (25:37):
Yeah, just a one on one date at Jack in
the Box.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Perfect, Well, it's tuning.
Speaker 8 (25:42):
We dated all through college, like we celebrated our our
eighteenth or nineteenth birthdays together, and we never broke up,
I mean never once and so our wedding was so
much fun because it was all of our college friends
that dated and then of course broke up and and
still like.
Speaker 12 (25:58):
We were, we were solid it.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
You have am all together. You have a left handed
child left, so I'm gonna let you say. But George
was accusing I'm left handed, and he was like, we
spent a time with my wife.
Speaker 11 (26:08):
I was like, Bobby, how they both George like.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
That is not genetic?
Speaker 10 (26:17):
Is that for me?
Speaker 11 (26:18):
They were in big glasses?
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Now on the Bobby Bones Show.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
Now, George burg beer beer truck truck, because I would
like for you just to reinforce a story about who
else is a songwriter on that song and who else
got paid for that song that you wrote.
Speaker 11 (26:34):
That was the song that kind of opened the door
for me. I had been chasing it forever and really
hadn't had much success. And I get on TikTok based
on some advice from Klay Walker actually, and the first
video I see is this girl and she's making fun
of country music kind of lightheartedly, and she's like, it
ain't nothing but beer beer truck truck and girls and
tight jeans and being a country music songwriter. I was like, well,
(26:56):
it'd be cool if I had defended country music and
kind of made a song out of it and showed
that I could even write a real song out of that.
And so I wrote it as a rebuttal, just kind
of a tongue in cheek verse in a chorus, and
I posted it ended up going super viral, got me
a record deal and opened a lot of doors for me.
And so I sent her a message and I was like, hey,
you know, I wrote a song out of the video
that you made, and I want to make you a
songwriter on it because you are what inspired it. And
(27:19):
she ended up hitting me back. And she was an
elementary school music teacher just outside of North Carolina, and
she said she grew up listening to country music and
had gotten away from it but loves it again now
because she's been getting royalty checks in the mail.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
So she's a teacher, and you ever have the money?
Like that's like good character, George guy, Like that's cool.
Kara's here, George's wife. Give me the three best qualities
about George.
Speaker 8 (27:47):
I can't say fearless in this industry, but I love
that you don't let fears stop you. He's so he's courageous,
he's very loving, like to his family, we're the most
important thing in his world. And so that's probably my
favorite thing about you. And then you're encouraging. I was
just laughing telling I've been back there that I think
(28:09):
I need you more than you need me, because they
were like playing up the supportive wife thing and I
was like, oh, but he's got a big role to.
Speaker 12 (28:16):
Fill at home.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
And then now, what's the most annoying things about Georgiana?
That if you you can improve, you're gonna be cowboy boots.
Speaker 8 (28:24):
Like there's like twelve fares of cowboy boots just at
our room around the bed.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Oh, not even organized in the closet, you're saying, there's
just twelve like shroud like it.
Speaker 12 (28:31):
Takes the shoes off wherever they come off.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Ye, yes, And the cowboy boots are bigger in there,
they're everywhere.
Speaker 12 (28:37):
Yeah, So that one's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Okay.
Speaker 11 (28:39):
Our house is a is a land minefield of cowboy
bes or crocs, yeah between the cowboys.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yeah, Okay, that's number one way.
Speaker 12 (28:48):
What else is annoying about you? That you don't know
where anything is located? In our house?
Speaker 8 (28:52):
So he does, he truly does call me, and he's like,
have you seen like my toothbrush? You know, like, oh,
like the basics, the basics, yep, which I will say.
He's on the on the go a lot, so he
has just like.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
But the toothbrush, the let's be honest, that's like something
you should know where it is. That's like the sink.
Speaker 11 (29:08):
I got to give her a prop. She like, the
house is always so Matt Stell, who's also a country singer,
is one of my best friends, and our girls were
out of town at the time, and he doesn't have
a living girlfriend yet. He's been dating a girl and
I think they are going to move in together. They're amazing.
But anyways, he had come over to the house and
we were gonna grill steaks and he goes into the
pantry and I just hear him go, oh my goodness,
(29:30):
and I like come running. I think something's wrong, and
he goes, is this what a house that a woman
lives in looks like? Because everything is like so tidy
in the house and labeled.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
So I thought I was gonna find the toothbrush in
the microwave or something. Oh my goodness, Okay, one other
carre you gotta have it. Give me three what else?
An annoying thing about your husband of.
Speaker 8 (29:49):
Probably the ironing, Like he'll be ready to go out
the door, needs to leave in five minutes, and he's like,
should this shirt be ironed?
Speaker 12 (29:56):
Does this look wrinkled?
Speaker 3 (29:58):
When there's not really enough time to fix it unless
you do it right? Then yes, this is.
Speaker 8 (30:03):
Kind of the last minute, exactly right.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
So Texas and the college football playoff? How you feel?
Speaker 11 (30:13):
I feel good? Was was rough losing to to Georgia
to get here, but I like the way our draw
shook out. And you know, anytime you get a chance
to make a run of the national championship, life's good.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Yeah, I'll pass from Arkansas. We're not allowed to like Texas,
but don't forget.
Speaker 11 (30:29):
He's also a Cowboys fan too.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
But he also went to Yeah, yeah, I hear you, Kara.
George is a great athlete. He is a great athlete.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Like he's a great golfer, probably best golfer in all
the country music. He doesn't say that I'll say that.
That gets me in trouble. But with my other friends
who play golf, if I'm being honest, but uh, I
would say.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Mid pickleball player. Does he ever come home and complain
that he can't beat me and pick a ball. Yes, okay, good, yes.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
I'll.
Speaker 3 (30:55):
Actually I have no other questions. Just want to end
with that.
Speaker 7 (30:58):
So why is that?
Speaker 3 (30:59):
I mean, wise, what why can't he?
Speaker 5 (31:01):
Is he a mid pickleball player when he's so athletic.
Speaker 11 (31:04):
I wish I knew Amy, Okay, anybody else in the league.
And I hate to say this in front of Eddie
and obviously you know, kick off Kevin and all the boys.
I can dust anybody else in the league, dust them.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
I'm just sitting here for the second story.
Speaker 11 (31:17):
But bones is uh, that's his calling. He's a yeah,

Speaker 11 (32:09):
Anything, No, you guys are the best. Thank y'all for
being part of this ride for me. I'll tell this
story really quick. I came on here because I had
a viral song beer Beer Truck Truck that was just
blowing up on TikTok. I barely had a record deal,
I didn't have anything going on, and mind on you
my first number one song I played on acoustic guitar
here first, and that changed my whole life. Ended up
being a single, ended up being my first number one,
(32:30):
and pretty surreal to be back here hanging out with
you guys. So thank y'all.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
I'd like to correct you, because you're not. You're not
accurate in that story, and you should tell it differently.
That's not the accurate story. Tell me, that's not why
you came up here. Beer beer truck truck?
Speaker 3 (32:41):
What I think? Why did you come up here? Oh?
Because that was a beer truck. Truck had nothing to
do with that.
Speaker 11 (32:46):
She was sitting next to me when this happened.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
It had nothing to do with beer.
Speaker 11 (32:49):
I was scrolling on Instagram and I had posted a
cover of Gary Allen and I don't think bones even
followed me. Now I knew you at the time, but
it knew me. Yeah, and he commented, this is good.
You should come into the show. And I about fell
out of my chair. It was an acoust it was
Gary Allen. Yeah, that's what you need to fix your story.
Broke Berberg truck kind of lamb.
Speaker 3 (33:10):

I'm just kidding. I'm kidding, but that is what it was.
He played that acoustic.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
I was like, hey, come play that on the show
because I love when people like respect the artist before
them and I have a passion for it and like
play it.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
And I was like, dude, that's so good. And he
came up and I was like, do one of yours,
and then he did one of his. And then luckily,
you know, people heard it and knew I knew crap
except give him an opportunity to sing.
Speaker 11 (33:34):
And people heard it and they what a flashback I
had forgotten about. You were sitting next to me on
the couch, and I go phone me.

a stranger. The stranger was like, Hey, I'm hungry, can
you buy this cereal for me? And so she was like,
all right, So she handed him a couple of dollars.
That was it, Like it was a whole thing. What
she didn't know was the stranger was actually a social
media influencer named Jimmy Darts, who then was like, oh,
you bought me cereal.

Our gift exchange?
Speaker 2 (36:52):
We're going to do it next Wednesday, guys, Just for
the record, our Macy's gift Exchange I will be next Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
So we did it different this year Macy's.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
I said, hey, can I get different denominations of gift cards?
Speaker 3 (37:02):
So there are uh, there's like a.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
Ten to twenty five, two fifty two seventy five's a
one hundred and five hundred and a one thousand dollars
gift card mine we drew randomly on the Post show,
so nobody knows. The person who has the gift card
now knows who they're getting for and how much money,
but the person who's getting the gift has no dam
much she's being spent on them. For example, I have lunchbox, right,
so I have my gift bag here with the card
in it, and he has no idea how much I
(37:26):
get to go to Macy's and spend on him. I
will say this, we did draw, like Morgan drew bag nine,
and so we know this part for a fact.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
Morgan buys for Ray Mundo.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
She drew the five hundred dollars bag, so she has
five hundred bucks to spend on Ray at Macy's.
Speaker 3 (37:42):
That's pretty cool, that's pretty but she may not spend
at all. Ray took bags.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
She doesn't have to, right, Ray took bag seven, and
Ray has Morgan I think me, oh yeah, and raises
one hundred bucks. So there'll be a lopside of gifts
but one hundred not bad.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
Imagine if you got the ten dollar one.
Speaker 7 (38:02):
Oh listen, Ray made a joke.
Speaker 5 (38:03):
He was like, wouldn't it be funny if I didn't
use online but you used all.
Speaker 7 (38:06):
Yours on me?
Speaker 3 (38:09):
Oh rude, yeah, right, funny. I don't. I haven't look.
Have you looked at your Oh? I looked at mine?
Speaker 7 (38:15):
Oh I haven't. I'm like waiting.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
I don't even know. You guys not looking. I tell you.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
I had the listener to make sure there was no cheating,
but I have no idea. Who has a thousand dollars?
I forgot and I threw the sheet away.
Speaker 5 (38:25):
I was thinking that I might go to Macy's and
get there and like, as I walk in the store,
I look at it, and then I know, and then
I shop.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Macy's best offer of the season, trying extra thirty percent
off top gifts plus fifteen percent off their best beauty
brands Macy's dot Com.
Speaker 3 (38:37):
Shop Macy's dot Com. Let Macy's be your guide to gifting.
Speaker 7 (38:39):
Good thing, there's a sale?
Speaker 3 (38:42):
Oh yeah, good call. That's gonna stink, suck lunchbox, you're
still in it. You could have the one thousand. The
way you made your face when you got it. No,
I'm not good in anything. I made no face. I didn't.
Speaker 7 (38:54):
You made up.
Speaker 3 (38:55):
You did a like I know what mine is for you.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
That's what I'm saying. But you can't read me. And
we've learned that over the years. You have no idea
to read me. I know.
Speaker 6 (39:03):
But when you drew, when you the bag that was
left over and you got it, you went, you made
that noise and it ruined.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
I mean, I'm already like crap. And that is the
end of the first half of the podcast. Is the
end of the first half of the podcast, the first
tip of the podcast.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
That is the end the first time out of the podcast.
You can go to the podcast to or you can
wait till podcast to come out.
Transmitting Welcome to Thursday Show Morning Studio Morning.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Two guests later on George Burge, he's got mind on
you and he's got cowboy songs and I think his
wife's coming with them, so we're gonna try to get
them both on. And then also the guy named Austin
Tanner who went to the CMAS took a picture. He's
a country artist, hasn't made it yet, but he shouldn't
have come to the CMAS because he's like, I'm like
probation and they were like, don't leave the state, but
(00:34):
he did and took a picture. And now I think
he wears an ankle monitor. Now we can't have him
in studio, but we can have them on zoom because
he can't leave the state. We'll talk to him coming
up to I think Raymond of those get a brilliant idea.
Because I was driving in this morning and it was
not my fault. I've been very cautious when I drive
into our parking garage. Our parking garage is a multi
(00:54):
level wrap around because we now are new office is
in basically a really tall no building, probably like forty
stories hire something and so like there's like six levels
of wrap around parking wrap rap rap rap, and people
can flying around that thing. Somebody almost hit me this morning.
Was not my fault because I used a little mirror
(01:14):
and I drive slow because I've been the situation too
where I've been like, oh God, alhmo's got somebody. Ray
Mundo thinks we should bet on the first person to
get in an accident.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
Energy hold on elaborate Ray.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
We would each put in twenty five dollars into a pot.
You pick who you think is gonna get in the
first accident, and whoever it gets into that first accident,
you would either win the money or lose the money.
It would be awesome. It's gonna keep everybody attentive so
that you're not being the person to get in the accident.
And for the love of God, can we please just
call it out that parking garage is a disaster waiting
to happen.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Somebody's gonna get an accent. So what if we don't
actually put money on it?
Speaker 3 (01:49):
What do you mean because there are odds like he
has the odds of the person.
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Because I already can guess he probably has me. Am
I the number one pick you're Ray is.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
The one that added everybody the odds on. The number
one pick is Amy already, which I would put all
my money on at two to one, So that's the
meaning you get two dollars for every one dollar ready bed,
So she's the one, if better, she's the heavy favorite.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
She's the Kansas City Chiefs of getting into a wreck.
That's awesome.
Speaker 6 (02:14):
Does it have to be a moving vehicle or can
it just be a wreckoned to any matter?
Speaker 5 (02:18):
It's a good point because I do tend to hit
non moving on That's what I was thinking.
Speaker 7 (02:22):
You're stationary.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
But that's the thing too, and it doesn't have to
be your fault. Right, So Amy is the favorite. We'll
just keep up with them. We have to put money
on it, so it could be backing into a pillar,
It could be anything, and they have.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
To the pillars are huge and they take up more
spot than they should. Yes.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Next up is Morgan at four to one because she
has so ray ducks. Yes, I mean she drives a jeep.
I'm surprised you can see to get up the garage
with nobody else driving around.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Good point.
Speaker 8 (02:49):
Listen, if I if I get a new car, I'm
gonna have to get one with all the technology so
I can see everything around me because those poles do
parking in that jeep and how wide it is parking
with those poles.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
I mean you're saying pole, Jim Ducks. Are you saying that?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Okay, next up, and we're about the same he has,
Eddie and I I'm.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
At twelve to one, fifteen to one? Why am I next?
Ray you? Just because you said you've already gotten a
couple of rims?
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Not really the term for that. I he's I did
scratch my rim on a what do you call it?
I mean, not that amy, I did scratch my rim on,
like the entrance thing because it's stupid.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
So fair. Are you talking about the high curb?
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yes, oh that's a good hill, the high curb scratch
yeah yeah, yeah, better than raise.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
But that's not an accident. But has damage damaged? That's
an accident.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
It would be hitting a car or you or a
pole or someone would say, oh, you've been in an accident.
There's a little scratch on the wheel. I just got
a buffed out. That's not an accident.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Well then, Eddie, why Eddie? He got yelled at. He
already had that confrontation.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
He's sloppy and his lunchbox the lowest because he rides
his bike sometimes just a numbers game.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Yeah, I didn't really know. Has he switched to a car?
Is he still doing the parking it downstairs in the
bike rack? Because then he's by far like the best.
Speaker 7 (04:07):
One to Well he could get hit by a car.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Well he did, he died. Yeah, that'd be bad. Are
you driving it all on the bike? I do fifty
to fifty? What do you drive my wife's car? Do
you plan on getting a car? Eventually? The odds will
change when he gets a car.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Okay, but that's what Ray has added us out. Amy
is the heavy favorite to be in the first accident
with Morgan, like saying this out loud, it is.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
What it is.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Amy, Okay, I'm not going to would you mind saying Spanish? Mike?
Amy will be the one to the odds, Amy said Meddle, Exactly,
there we go.
Speaker 7 (04:44):
M hmm.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Okay, So where do we bet?
Speaker 7 (04:47):
I don't hear you where you.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Bet I'm in?
Speaker 2 (04:51):
There's got to be a house, because there are odds
there's no house, So raise the house. He'll never pay.
We're not going to do anyway. Good luck here, buddy,
because uh I work out there. It's rough out there.
Somebody's gonna happen.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
Especially the timing thing like stupid parking garages or genius
flying down.
Speaker 9 (05:08):
And don't trust that mirror because that maror is pointed down.
That mirror does. The mirror works. It's helped me a.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Couple of stop.
Speaker 7 (05:14):
I'm going to admit this right now here.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Hit there the corner mirror that tells you around the curve.
It's a big bubble just got worse.
Speaker 5 (05:23):
Actually, if you think about her one to one, because
now I know that there's a tool.
Speaker 10 (05:29):
Yeah, Anonymous, the question to be, Hello, Bobby Bones.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
I recently brought my kid to a birthday party. Was
at a gaming place, and the kids were playing the
games and the parents had cocktails and beers.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
The adults were drinking.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I didn't think there's anything wrong with it, but some
of the other kids' parents thought it was a bad idea,
and we're looking down on it. And my family we
almost always have some sort of liquor available at anyone's party,
even if it's a kid. I know you don't drink, Bobby,
but do you think it's okay to serve alcohol at
kids parties? For adults from Science Social Drinker. I'm gonna
have to recuse myself from this because I don't drink
(06:21):
and I have kids, so like both Like, I don't
feel like there's anything wrong with it, but my opinion
holds no water here Amy you first, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
No, I think that I've seen alcohol at kids' birthday parties,
and it also makes me think of Halloween, where that
is all about kids and trigger treating and most parents
are drinking that entire too.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
We got a road Yeah, we took a roadie take.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
A roady to go trigger treating, and so I know
that's just once a year, but that is something that
is predominantly for kids, and adults are everywhere, and a
lot of times they have cocktail in hand.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Yeah, and I guess if someone's not doing a keg stand.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Yeah, Like a lot of the it's the environment and
the people that are there.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
But okay, Eddie, I.
Speaker 9 (07:00):
Grew up in South Texas where yeah, so and so
is turning five years old, But it wasn't about that.
The whole city showed up and there were pignatas in
a DJ and like just live music or whatever and beer,
like lots of beer, and that's kind of how I
grew up. Now, when I got older and I married
a white woman, things changed a little bit because you know,
(07:25):
like the first time, you know, I think my son
turned one or whatever, and I'm like, all right, let's
get some beers or whatever. She's like, what do you mean,
Like what are we getting beers? Because that's not really
how her family did it. But I think there's somewhere
in the middle that you can do it. Have a
few cocktails for the adults if they want to drink,
it's okay.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
But behave yourself.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Not a bad thing though, You're just it's not like
you should look down on the alcohol at that party.
Speaker 6 (07:48):
Pretty Much every kid's birthday party I have been to
since having kids has alcohol. We went to one this
past weekend and they said there's a bounce house in
the back for the kids. There's mimosas inside for the parents.
So I mean every birthday party has alcohol. Uh, soccer
team party, they had alcohol for kids or for you No,
for the adults.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
You know, soccer the kids soccer.
Speaker 6 (08:09):
Kids play soccer too, right, You're right, my fall kids
soccer team. You go and they have alcohol available for
the parents.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
So it's like shots it's always like this is a drink.
Speaker 7 (08:19):
Couple drinks in another room, maybe.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
But it's not like we're doing shots.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
It's if it's drink, it's like a momsta like a line, right,
got it? Okay, so I guess all three of a heck,
why not me?
Speaker 3 (08:28):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
All four of us say that it's not a big
deal as long as the advice is handled appropriately.
Speaker 9 (08:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Yeah, and you're not giving it to the kids, correct,
that'd be a different that's important.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
Yes, Okay, all right, good, we all agree in that.
Close it up? All right, boys, mail, let's.
Speaker 9 (08:42):
Go head, Bobby.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
I am driving them after a very long travel thing
and you're just calling to say that.
Speaker 7 (08:50):
I literally could listen to Ray and Scuba.
Speaker 9 (08:53):
Steve just laughed back and forth at each other, and
it would just crack me up.
Speaker 7 (08:58):
Thanks for the show and for keeping you.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Ray and Scoop Steeve in the glassroom. And we can't
hear them unless they turn their MIC's on. There's a separation,
there's a barrier, but sometimes we can see them and
I can see when Raymond will laughs so hard but
I can't hear it, and I go, Ray, why'd you laugh?
That's mostly when I'll check in with Ray when I
see him just laughing, because Ray doesn't laugh a lot.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
Unless it's really funny, unless it's just like really odd.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
But uh yeah, I know I agree when those two
get laughing because they hear everything.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
That's how you know something's funny.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
I appreciate that calls Amy's pile of stories.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
So, Bobby, I thought of you because I saw a
clip of Martha Stewart on Drew Barrymore's show, and she
was talking about how she gets guessed to leave her
house when the party is over.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Yes, what she does? You tell them before they even
get their way, time the party's over to go.
Speaker 7 (09:44):
Home, okay, well or or or my favorite.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
If you forget to do that, you go on, you
put your shorts and your cutoff on, and you walk
back out while everybody's still dressed and you and you
don't say anything, but they're like, oh, obviously it is
cut off T shirt and shorts. That's seen the I
think that, like, that's my move move. If I've forgotten this,
say hey, everybody, it's gonna be wrapping at nine thirty
or something.
Speaker 5 (10:03):
Yeah, well, you've also done this exact thing that she suggests,
which is, Hey, I'm gonna go to bed.
Speaker 7 (10:09):
I'll see you later.
Speaker 5 (10:10):
And if they don't get the hint from that, she
just starts turning off the lights.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Oh hardcore. I can respect it. And what do you
do about that?
Speaker 2 (10:19):
You know what you just do is you say, hey,
the parties from da da da da da da and
look to have everybody out by this time. And nobody
gets their feeling start when it's said in front of
the time because they don't feel like they're the one
that's being annoying and staying too late. But I have
I'm not too good to go in and change my
clothes and I'll come out and pay razor back shorts
and a cut off, no sleeves and like, huh, time
(10:39):
for bed.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Weh sit down in the middle of everybody still talking,
No problem with that.
Speaker 5 (10:43):
Mirriam Webster announced its word of the Year, and it
is polarization. It's defined as division into two sharply distinct opposites,
which obviously that was a popular word this year with
the election happening, and in no particular order. The other
finalists were totality, No, why I.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Know what it means?
Speaker 7 (11:03):
Well, the eclipse was in April.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Oh, I don't remember that.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
It feels like something, uh demure Fortnite because of Taylor Swift.
It's in her song pander Resonate. And then allision is
the final word that was in running for Word of
the Year, and that is from when the boat hit
the bridge.
Speaker 7 (11:25):
That's what that's called.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I remember what year that was. That was this year,
I think that because that's the story.
Speaker 5 (11:32):
But when a boat hits a stationary object, it's called
an allision.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
The power was out, remember they lost power, and then
people were thinking it was hackers. It's terrible. But also,
how about Fortnite a little bit too? Is the game
as well because they put out a new version this
year as well?
Speaker 7 (11:46):
Oh you think so?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Yeah, And the game's way bigger than the song.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I'm not saying it's not the song, but I mean
that's the game is a cultural monster.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
So the game is called Fortnite, but I know a
Fortnite is two weeks, fourteen days.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Yeah, but the O A. Lincoln timeline didn't make the bill.
Speaker 7 (12:00):
But like, why is Fortnite called Fortnite?
Speaker 3 (12:01):
I'm not no clue.
Speaker 5 (12:04):
And then I have tips from a psychiatrist, doctor Daniel Ahman,
You've probably seeing him on social media a lot. But
he recommends that we start each day with these simple
eight words and it can turn everything around. And those
eight words are today is going to be a great day.
It just puts your subconscious on notice that that's the
direction you want to go in. It's no guarantee the
(12:26):
day's gonna be perfect, but he knows what we're talking about,
and he studies the brain.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Well, I got five words I do. What's that?
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Has anyone seen my phone? And that's how you start
your day? And that's it.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
That's it.
Speaker 7 (12:38):
I'm haty, that's my file.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the
good news. Ready.
Speaker 9 (12:49):
Paul Desosa is a sergeant for a sheriff's department in Florida.
But he was in Dollywood with his family vacation. He's
hanging out with his family doing some rides when he
hears like somebody crime for hell. Looks over and there
is a boy unresponsive. He's not breathing and he's turning blue.
So what does Sarge do? He runs over there, he says,
let me help. Does the heimlick can't really find anything
(13:10):
like lodge in his throat? So he does CPR and
then another paramedic who's also on vacation not on duty,
shows up says, let me help.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
They start working on him.
Speaker 9 (13:19):
They get him back breathing, and the kid's gonna be
fine because those two were there at the park, so
just happened to be cops of paramedics and near Bob.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
And I bet you Dolly, what's full of people like that?
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Though? That's a pretty like normal person job. Yeah yeah,
I think so, like normal people care about other people.
I can do that job normal Parson jo.
Speaker 9 (13:36):
Also two side note, I saw that Keith Urban and
Nicole Kidman were Dollywood just hanging out.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Yeah, hanging out.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Well, if somebody was like, please help, I need to
learn a guitar solo, I'm here for you.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Which which selo would you like? Which? Which key would
you like it in? That's it's awesome. Were the names?
What are the names?
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Again?
Speaker 9 (13:55):
Well, it's just Sergeant Paul Dessa is the only one
I know from Florida. But that's paramedic down. I don't
know his name. The story wasn't really about him, but
I threw him in there because I thought that was
pretty cool.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
All Right, we'll call it paramedic, good guy, good girl,
paramedic Pete? Well could it be a girl?
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Well?
Speaker 3 (14:07):
True, that's a good story. That's what it's all about.
That was telling me something good.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
There's a story, it's a Hollywood story where somebody casts
somebody to be like their girlfriend and it's causing controversy.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
And I'll talk about that in a second. Amy.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
If there was a movie and you're like, okay, on
an act of the movie, this is you and I'm
going to cast somebody to be my boyfriend or husband,
Like who would you cast?
Speaker 7 (14:28):
Probably like Ryan Gossling.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Perfect answer, because the way that they're hating on Taylor Sheridan,
who created Yellowstone, who Landman all those shows, right, Taylor
Sheridan has appeared several times throughout the series and Yellowstone
and he rides the horses. He's like a horseman. He's
good on those horses too. In the episode he played
(14:50):
a major role in the story. There was him playing
poker and there's a bunch of women there and his
girlfriend who had cast as a girlfriend was Belahadide.
Speaker 7 (14:57):
Oh yeah, Like, isn't that.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
What you would do if you could?
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Like just wars and the story for Fox News and
I asked that with Amy because she would go Ryan
Gosling or any Yeah, of course, you shoot for the stars.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Yeah, man, and.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
The fact that people are like buzzing his chopped But.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
What would you expect him to do? Yeah, he's not
gonna get someone that's not I go for the biggest,
most beautiful person ever. That's yeah. So any problem with
that at all? No, I got no problem with it.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Would you cast lunch Box if there was a senior
to cast man?
Speaker 6 (15:31):
This is tough, man, there's real tough. There's so many
hottings out there. I mean, Jennifer Lawrence is smoking hot now.
Halle Berry, she may be a little pastor prime.
Speaker 7 (15:39):
Oh my gosh, shut up.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
No, No, I love halle Berry. Amy.
Speaker 5 (15:43):
I'm just saying it's not necessary. You don't have to
say that. That was beautiful Amy. That was my number
one draft pick forever.
Speaker 6 (15:49):
But but she may be a little pastoral prime, Jennifer wyd.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
I don't know. There's still a lot of ladies. That's
a good point.
Speaker 9 (15:59):
Like they have to accept the role too, right, Like
if they found out it was Lunchboxes, they were.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Like, but it's a check though. Yeah, halle Berry is
fifty eight? Does that pass prime? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Past prime? Man, that's on that's on the other side,
it's down the hill. Bella Hadida is twenty eight, so
she is, Hey, let me take it. She's really hot.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
So Taylor Taylor Sheridan's fifty four, she's twenty eight. Any
issue with that? I got no casting it.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
They're acting. I hey, wait, just acting man. And he's
also like a really good, like strong fifty four like Chisel.
Speaker 7 (16:28):
Yeah he doesn't look fifty four.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, So everybody forget about the idea.
I mean, let's all be honest. We do the same thing.
Who would you? Who would you?
Speaker 2 (16:34):
My wife set you up? He didn't set me up
for crap, Morgan, who would you cast?
Speaker 7 (16:41):
Oh Chris Evans?
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Wow, I'm shocked you didn't go what's his name?
Speaker 7 (16:45):
Uh Riley Green?
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Or the other guy though, the one she likes, the
one pretty little anything she does anything else just attacker.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
We mean, oh, hey, let her just picked Chris Evans
and move on instead of being like all the other
that she's called. You know, you guys are haters. If
I got a defender like Chris happens with America the Shield,
I will Chris hapvens awesome, Like, good, look at it?
I said, who it's in haks cap Who would you
pick you?
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Gwynethought Trow for sure? Easy? Yeah, that prime thing to
talk about.
Speaker 9 (17:18):
What's so dumb is he got older too, Like we're
all getting older together, so like I'm not gonna get
a twenty year old. I'm gonna get Gwyneth thought Trow
because she's been my number one draft picks since forever ago.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Oh you know another one, Zoe Kravitz.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Why do you grind? You just say the issues? And
also we can't pick two? You cheated him?
Speaker 6 (17:35):
Anyways, I know, but I'm maybe I'm going back on.
You can have an understudy, yep, that's right. Just a
Broadway play, bro, they get sick. You gotta have someone
a Broadway play.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
That's funny. Okay. Anyway, I justice for Taylor Sheriedan is
what I say. Thank you on the Bobby Bones Show. Now,
George Burg, George Burg and his wife Caroa. Look who's here?
What's up?
Speaker 11 (17:57):
Guys?
Speaker 3 (17:58):
Hey? George? Hey Caro. Hey, So you did not know
you were gonna be on? I appreciate you coming here.
Speaker 12 (18:03):
No, I didn't. I thought I was just the driver
this morning.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
I know, and I love your husband very much, so
I feel like I can eliminate him from our conversation
and you and I can just have this person.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
And you've been to the house, so we're cool. We're
all good. So don't be up. Don't be irritated at
me when I ask these questions. Did you ever think
he wouldn't make it?
Speaker 8 (18:19):
Well, it's been ten years in Nashville. It's definitely been
a roller coaster. I wouldn't say that I didn't think
he was going to make it or couldn't make it.
I think there were times that we were like definitely
having to reevaluate what did the next five years look like?
Speaker 12 (18:32):
What did the next ten years look like?
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Yeah, in a way of like he has all the
talent in the world, but this talent is weird. Like
the most talented people ever sometimes don't make it. The
least talented people sometimes next thing you know, they're massive stars.
And I just wonder, like if a family, yes, there'd
be a lot of years he was grinding making the
little to no money and you're at home with the
kids going like, what's the deal here?
Speaker 8 (18:55):
I know, it's it's a wild ride. I will say,
we have never stopped dreaming. But I love that. George
is also like a smart business guy, and he's smart
and he leads our family well. So there've been tough conversations,
but I would say I'm always the.
Speaker 12 (19:10):
One pushing him to not stop.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
George was going, I wouldn't let him give up.
Speaker 11 (19:14):
She is being humble. There was I mean, you don't.
This is the business where you make nothing until you
make everything. There's not like an in between where you're
making like what you would make it a comfy desk
job or anything like that. It's like it's zero dollars
until you're rich. And so she was hustling selling real estate,
raising kids, and you know, I'm on the road playing
(19:36):
dive bars to nobody. And she never wore me out
about it. She always believed in it. She always knew
it was gonna happen. And like I carried a lot
of guilt about that, especially when we had young kids
and I'm the you know, a husband not really providing
much and chasing a dream and very selfishly one sided
on that. And so now that we're sitting here like
(19:57):
on the cusp of having a second hit and like
everything coming together, and we got to write Walk the
CMA Red Carpet together this year, and like, you know,
seeing the fruits of all that, it's pretty special.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Yeah, I'm gonna play a cowboy song in just a second. George,
would you mind me sharing a story with your wife?
A story that you told me that I don't think
you would mind me sharing with your wife. I just
need a contument. I know it's a good story.
Speaker 11 (20:21):
I would love that.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
I just have a confirmation.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Georgia birthday was recently, so George likes, on my birthday,
come with me, and I'm like, no doubt, drop everything
we do Georgia Birthday. And so George and I are
together and Carrie talks about you glowingly all the time.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
It's all the time, even when you're not around.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
And that's how, you know, is how somebody really feels
when they talk about how they talk about somebody when
they're not around.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
And he said, we're getting ready to do a lot
of the stuff that and he was super excited.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
He hasn't really been able to do, which is like
be celebrated at awards and Songwriting Awards and the CMA's
And he said, you know, we're doing the CMA red
carpet and we're talking about that and he goes ker
put the dress on that she's wearing, Oh buddy, And
I thought that was like, as you know, as funny
as it is, but also I was like, man, that's
(21:05):
a husband that like really loves his wife.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Because you guys have been together for how long.
Speaker 11 (21:09):
Since we were eighteen?
Speaker 3 (21:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 12 (21:10):
I think fifteen years.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
And he was still like gushing at the fact that
you had put on this dress and how great you
looked and how excited.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
It wasn't about him. It was about you getting to
go and do something that he hoped you would think
was awesome.
Speaker 8 (21:22):
Yes, that's true. He actually picked my dress. I sent
him options.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
He didn't tell me that part.
Speaker 8 (21:29):
Well, he voted, he voted, okay, my vote always went.
Speaker 12 (21:32):
I let him. I let him choose.
Speaker 11 (21:34):
No chance she would have let me pick it out,
but I could get like ABC options. Yeah, he's going
together in like March. She kind of guided me. There
were no wrong choices, but yeah too.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
How was the right car? How was the c speak
at the right carpetal thing?
Speaker 12 (21:48):
Awesome?
Speaker 8 (21:49):
I love nothing more than to watch him interview because
I feel like he's just really good at it. And
to see him have such like genuine connections with all
of those people the room that like know and just
respect him, and I feel like to see him belong
in that environment is really something special.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
It was.
Speaker 11 (22:08):
It was definitely surreal. Like I remember, we're waiting. When
you get there, there's a step and repeat where everybody
takes like their CMA picture, and it was us, and
it was Cody Johnson and his wife behind us, which
Cody is obviously like another level of fame. I'm waiting
to get my picture taken. And I turn around and
Kara's made best friends with Cody Johnson's wife and they're
just chatting it up there on the carpet and she's
in her head to toe gown and we're you know,
(22:30):
lights and carpets and everything, and I was looking behind her.
I was like, this is pretty cool about this. This
is different.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Yeah, on the Bobby Bones Show now, George Burgs, So
basically you got two number ones. Are you playing shows
now where you headlined and they're buying tickets to see you?
And if so, is that cool? Is that a change up?
Speaker 11 (22:48):
So that's very new, But yes, it's it's happening, especially
has been towards the end of the year, and I
still have a lot of like hard to believe that
we're here feelings. And so even when we, you know,
are having success and we've been going out and playing
these sold out shows with headliners as openers. Now that
we're headlining shows ourselves with our name on the bill,
(23:08):
I still have anxiety all day until I walk in
there and see the crowd. But we've been selling out
shows as a headliner, which is I mean, they're obviously
smaller rooms, but you know, to go to cities that
I've never been to before and have a thousand people
show up and buy tickets, that's not something I'm used to,
and it's it's a really really cool feeling.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Yeah, Carol, What does he get most anxious about?
Speaker 8 (23:26):
George kind of like flies by the seat of his
pants and last minute loves to like pack the morning
of the trip, so I kind of know to expect
that he gives.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
So you get anxious about him doing that?
Speaker 8 (23:37):
Yes, yes, yes, yes, He's like have you seen those jeans?
And I'm like, I know where everything is. He if
I'm not there, he calls me and he's like.
Speaker 12 (23:44):
Do you know where this is.
Speaker 11 (23:46):
I leave for Canada this afternoon, and I packed last
night and Carol walked in and she's like, are you
actually packing the night before? I was like, yeah, I'm.
Speaker 12 (23:54):
Very glad too, because he's going to the airport right
after this.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
On the way to the airport, it's like, do I
need a coach?
Speaker 7 (23:59):
Oh?
Speaker 12 (24:00):
The weather? Yeah he missed the weather. Quit.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
I didn't mean a coach. I brought a coat.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
George AND's wife Kara or in studio, Kara, can you
tell me the story about how you guys met, the
real story?
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Go for it?
Speaker 7 (24:13):
What do you mean the real is there?
Speaker 12 (24:15):
In college?
Speaker 10 (24:16):
Like?
Speaker 12 (24:16):
How descriptive can I be?
Speaker 3 (24:17):
Do you have a fake one though that you tell people?
Speaker 8 (24:20):
We just are like, oh we met in college, Okay.
Speaker 11 (24:22):
You know the real one will sound fake.
Speaker 8 (24:24):
The real one is like we were at a costume
party and we were eighteen years old, and he was
in a fraternity and he was a pledge, and so
he was dressed as a smurf, his whole body painted blue,
and I was in some like cute eighties dress because
it was like eighty s theme night. But if you
were a freshman, they gave you like a prank that
you had to dress up as. And he was a
(24:45):
smurf and like no shirt painted blue. I have a
picture somewhere.
Speaker 12 (24:50):
And kind.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
And he had Smurf is like really good looking though
that's tough.
Speaker 12 (24:56):
He was. He was kind of weird and funny.
Speaker 11 (24:58):
You know, she's always like me person, but we were like.
Speaker 8 (25:02):
It wasn't until later in college. That's when we first met.
And then we went on some date parties together.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
And what was the first date? What was the first
date party? I think we can call this a date.
Speaker 11 (25:14):
So next to the fraternity house that I was in,
I brought her to a party where eighteen were freshmen.
We go out, have a party, hang out together that night,
and I took her to Jack in the Box after
the party and she got a chicken tenders and Queso
fries and I immediately fell in love after that.
Speaker 5 (25:30):
Girl, your late night meal is your first date.
Speaker 12 (25:35):
We kind of roched a lot of fun in college.
Speaker 11 (25:37):
Yeah, just a one on one date at Jack in
the Box.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Perfect, Well, it's tuning.
Speaker 8 (25:42):
We dated all through college, like we celebrated our our
eighteenth or nineteenth birthdays together, and we never broke up,
I mean never once and so our wedding was so
much fun because it was all of our college friends
that dated and then of course broke up and and
still like.
Speaker 12 (25:58):
We were, we were solid it.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
You have am all together. You have a left handed
child left, so I'm gonna let you say. But George
was accusing I'm left handed, and he was like, we
spent a time with my wife.
Speaker 11 (26:08):
I was like, Bobby, how they both George like.
Speaker 3 (26:16):
That is not genetic?
Speaker 10 (26:17):
Is that for me?
Speaker 11 (26:18):
They were in big glasses?
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Now on the Bobby Bones Show.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
Now, George burg beer beer truck truck, because I would
like for you just to reinforce a story about who
else is a songwriter on that song and who else
got paid for that song that you wrote.
Speaker 11 (26:34):
That was the song that kind of opened the door
for me. I had been chasing it forever and really
hadn't had much success. And I get on TikTok based
on some advice from Klay Walker actually, and the first
video I see is this girl and she's making fun
of country music kind of lightheartedly, and she's like, it
ain't nothing but beer beer truck truck and girls and
tight jeans and being a country music songwriter. I was like, well,
(26:56):
it'd be cool if I had defended country music and
kind of made a song out of it and showed
that I could even write a real song out of that.
And so I wrote it as a rebuttal, just kind
of a tongue in cheek verse in a chorus, and
I posted it ended up going super viral, got me
a record deal and opened a lot of doors for me.
And so I sent her a message and I was like, hey,
you know, I wrote a song out of the video
that you made, and I want to make you a
songwriter on it because you are what inspired it. And
(27:19):
she ended up hitting me back. And she was an
elementary school music teacher just outside of North Carolina, and
she said she grew up listening to country music and
had gotten away from it but loves it again now
because she's been getting royalty checks in the mail.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
So she's a teacher, and you ever have the money?
Like that's like good character, George guy, Like that's cool.
Kara's here, George's wife. Give me the three best qualities
about George.
Speaker 8 (27:47):
I can't say fearless in this industry, but I love
that you don't let fears stop you. He's so he's courageous,
he's very loving, like to his family, we're the most
important thing in his world. And so that's probably my
favorite thing about you. And then you're encouraging. I was
just laughing telling I've been back there that I think
(28:09):
I need you more than you need me, because they
were like playing up the supportive wife thing and I
was like, oh, but he's got a big role to.
Speaker 12 (28:16):
Fill at home.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
And then now, what's the most annoying things about Georgiana?
That if you you can improve, you're gonna be cowboy boots.
Speaker 8 (28:24):
Like there's like twelve fares of cowboy boots just at
our room around the bed.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Oh, not even organized in the closet, you're saying, there's
just twelve like shroud like it.
Speaker 12 (28:31):
Takes the shoes off wherever they come off.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Ye, yes, And the cowboy boots are bigger in there,
they're everywhere.
Speaker 12 (28:37):
Yeah, So that one's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Okay.
Speaker 11 (28:39):
Our house is a is a land minefield of cowboy
bes or crocs, yeah between the cowboys.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yeah, Okay, that's number one way.
Speaker 12 (28:48):
What else is annoying about you? That you don't know
where anything is located? In our house?
Speaker 8 (28:52):
So he does, he truly does call me, and he's like,
have you seen like my toothbrush? You know, like, oh,
like the basics, the basics, yep, which I will say.
He's on the on the go a lot, so he
has just like.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
But the toothbrush, the let's be honest, that's like something
you should know where it is. That's like the sink.
Speaker 11 (29:08):
I got to give her a prop. She like, the
house is always so Matt Stell, who's also a country singer,
is one of my best friends, and our girls were
out of town at the time, and he doesn't have
a living girlfriend yet. He's been dating a girl and
I think they are going to move in together. They're amazing.
But anyways, he had come over to the house and
we were gonna grill steaks and he goes into the
pantry and I just hear him go, oh my goodness,
(29:30):
and I like come running. I think something's wrong, and
he goes, is this what a house that a woman
lives in looks like? Because everything is like so tidy
in the house and labeled.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
So I thought I was gonna find the toothbrush in
the microwave or something. Oh my goodness, Okay, one other
carre you gotta have it. Give me three what else?
An annoying thing about your husband of.
Speaker 8 (29:49):
Probably the ironing, Like he'll be ready to go out
the door, needs to leave in five minutes, and he's like,
should this shirt be ironed?
Speaker 12 (29:56):
Does this look wrinkled?
Speaker 3 (29:58):
When there's not really enough time to fix it unless
you do it right? Then yes, this is.
Speaker 8 (30:03):
Kind of the last minute, exactly right.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
So Texas and the college football playoff? How you feel?
Speaker 11 (30:13):
I feel good? Was was rough losing to to Georgia
to get here, but I like the way our draw
shook out. And you know, anytime you get a chance
to make a run of the national championship, life's good.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Yeah, I'll pass from Arkansas. We're not allowed to like Texas,
but don't forget.
Speaker 11 (30:29):
He's also a Cowboys fan too.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
But he also went to Yeah, yeah, I hear you, Kara.
George is a great athlete. He is a great athlete.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Like he's a great golfer, probably best golfer in all
the country music. He doesn't say that I'll say that.
That gets me in trouble. But with my other friends
who play golf, if I'm being honest, but uh, I
would say.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Mid pickleball player. Does he ever come home and complain
that he can't beat me and pick a ball. Yes, okay, good, yes.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
I'll.
Speaker 3 (30:55):
Actually I have no other questions. Just want to end
with that.
Speaker 7 (30:58):
So why is that?
Speaker 3 (30:59):
I mean, wise, what why can't he?
Speaker 5 (31:01):
Is he a mid pickleball player when he's so athletic.
Speaker 11 (31:04):
I wish I knew Amy, Okay, anybody else in the league.
And I hate to say this in front of Eddie
and obviously you know, kick off Kevin and all the boys.
I can dust anybody else in the league, dust them.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
I'm just sitting here for the second story.
Speaker 11 (31:17):
But bones is uh, that's his calling. He's a yeah,

Anything, No, you guys are the best. Thank y'all for
being part of this ride for me. I'll tell this
story really quick. I came on here because I had
a viral song beer Beer Truck Truck that was just
blowing up on TikTok. I barely had a record deal,
I didn't have anything going on, and mind on you
my first number one song I played on acoustic guitar
here first, and that changed my whole life. Ended up
being a single, ended up being my first number one,
(32:30):
and pretty surreal to be back here hanging out with
you guys. So thank y'all.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
I'd like to correct you, because you're not. You're not
accurate in that story, and you should tell it differently.
That's not the accurate story. Tell me, that's not why
you came up here. Beer beer truck truck?
Speaker 3 (32:41):
What I think? Why did you come up here? Oh?
Because that was a beer truck. Truck had nothing to
do with that.
Speaker 11 (32:46):
She was sitting next to me when this happened.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
It had nothing to do with beer.
Speaker 11 (32:49):
I was scrolling on Instagram and I had posted a
cover of Gary Allen and I don't think bones even
followed me. Now I knew you at the time, but
it knew me. Yeah, and he commented, this is good.
You should come into the show. And I about fell
out of my chair. It was an acoust it was
Gary Allen. Yeah, that's what you need to fix your story.
Broke Berberg truck kind of lamb.
Speaker 3 (33:10):
I'm just kidding.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
I'm just kidding. I'm kidding, but that is what it was.
He played that acoustic.
Speaker 3 (33:17):
I was like, hey, come play that on the show
because I love when people like respect the artist before
them and I have a passion for it and like
play it.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
And I was like, dude, that's so good. And he
came up and I was like, do one of yours,
and then he did one of his. And then luckily,
you know, people heard it and knew I knew crap
except give him an opportunity to sing.
Speaker 11 (33:34):
And people heard it and they what a flashback I
had forgotten about. You were sitting next to me on
the couch, and I go phone me.

Good to see there is George Carre. All right, buy everybody,

She was a pro at a Walmart in Arizona by
a stranger. The stranger was like, Hey, I'm hungry, can
you buy this cereal for me? And so she was like,
all right, So she handed him a couple of dollars.
That was it, Like it was a whole thing. What
she didn't know was the stranger was actually a social
media influencer named Jimmy Darts, who then was like, oh,
you bought me cereal.
Speaker 3 (34:16):
Here's a thousand bucks. Wow, that's cool.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
In the video posted by Jimmy, she tears up and
then she shared because they I've seen his videos before.
They then tell like a story. Whatever, he husband's in
the hospital right now battling lung cancer. Can't work, and
so Jimmy then after he gives her one hundred thousand
or of the thousand dollars, gets online and goes, Okay,

Wisconsin What do you get a pine tree? Because pine eye, pineapple, pineapple,

What does Santa spend his hard earned salary on bag.
Speaker 11 (36:26):

Speaker 2 (36:37):

Our gift exchange?
Speaker 2 (36:52):
We're going to do it next Wednesday, guys, Just for
the record, our Macy's gift Exchange I will be next Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
So we did it different this year Macy's.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
I said, hey, can I get different denominations of gift cards?
Speaker 3 (37:02):
So there are uh, there's like a.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
Ten to twenty five, two fifty two seventy five's a
one hundred and five hundred and a one thousand dollars
gift card mine we drew randomly on the Post show,
so nobody knows. The person who has the gift card
now knows who they're getting for and how much money,
but the person who's getting the gift has no dam
much she's being spent on them. For example, I have lunchbox, right,
so I have my gift bag here with the card
in it, and he has no idea how much I
(37:26):
get to go to Macy's and spend on him. I
will say this, we did draw, like Morgan drew bag nine,
and so we know this part for a fact.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
Morgan buys for Ray Mundo.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
She drew the five hundred dollars bag, so she has
five hundred bucks to spend on Ray at Macy's.
Speaker 3 (37:42):
That's pretty cool, that's pretty but she may not spend
at all. Ray took bags.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
She doesn't have to, right, Ray took bag seven, and
Ray has Morgan I think me, oh yeah, and raises
one hundred bucks. So there'll be a lopside of gifts
but one hundred not bad.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
Imagine if you got the ten dollar one.
Speaker 7 (38:02):
Oh listen, Ray made a joke.
Speaker 5 (38:03):
He was like, wouldn't it be funny if I didn't
use online but you used all.
Speaker 7 (38:06):
Yours on me?
Speaker 3 (38:09):
Oh rude, yeah, right, funny. I don't. I haven't look.
Have you looked at your Oh? I looked at mine?
Speaker 7 (38:15):
Oh I haven't. I'm like waiting.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
I don't even know. You guys not looking. I tell you.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
I had the listener to make sure there was no cheating,
but I have no idea. Who has a thousand dollars?
I forgot and I threw the sheet away.
Speaker 5 (38:25):
I was thinking that I might go to Macy's and
get there and like, as I walk in the store,
I look at it, and then I know, and then
I shop.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Macy's best offer of the season, trying extra thirty percent
off top gifts plus fifteen percent off their best beauty
brands Macy's dot Com.
Speaker 3 (38:37):
Shop Macy's dot Com. Let Macy's be your guide to gifting.
Speaker 7 (38:39):
Good thing, there's a sale?
Speaker 3 (38:42):
Oh yeah, good call. That's gonna stink, suck lunchbox, you're
still in it. You could have the one thousand. The
way you made your face when you got it. No,
I'm not good in anything. I made no face. I didn't.
Speaker 7 (38:54):
You made up.
Speaker 3 (38:55):
You did a like I know what mine is for you.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
That's what I'm saying. But you can't read me. And
we've learned that over the years. You have no idea
to read me. I know.
Speaker 6 (39:03):
But when you drew, when you the bag that was
left over and you got it, you went, you made
that noise and it ruined.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
I mean, I'm already like crap. And that is the
end of the first half of the podcast. Is the
