Quince is one of those brands that just fits into real life. At home, everything feels elevated but still easy and comfortable. The kind of pieces you throw on and immediately feel good in. It's all designed to mix, layer and last, not just look cute once they really shine. When it comes to everyday staples, the organic cotton pieces are soft and breathable. The fabrics feel sustainable without being heavy. And the cotton cashmere blends are perfect for lounging when it's chilly or layering around the house. These are things you wear on repeat because they're that comfortable. What really stands out is the quality. They use materials like European linen and organic cotton and you can feel it right away. The stitching, the fit, the way everything holds up. Wash after wash. Nothing feels flimsy or disposable. I've picked up their loungewear, sleepwear and linens and it genuinely makes being at home feel more put together. The loungewear is ridiculously soft. The sleeves sleepwear is cozy without overheating. And the linens feel like hotel level comfort in your own bed. It's that quiet kind of luxury that actually makes home feel better.

Is this thing on? What's up, you sexy? Welcome to another episode of Dumb Blonde. Today we have a new person on the couch.

[Mimi]

Hey.

[Bunny]

Hey, girl.

[Mimi]

Hey.

[Bunny]

Actually, it's hey boy.

[Mimi]

Hey.

[Bunny]

So Haley couldn't be with us because she's got some running around to do. We actually this is an impromptu podcast. We didn't even plan on filming for the like next five days because I was like, I love you guys. I don't want to see anybody for five days, like, that was my rule. But we had to have a meeting today anyways, and there's so much going on on the interwebs.

[Mimi]

The buzz.

[Bunny]

The buzz is fucking wild. So I wanted to just take this opportunity to fudgeing, capitalize off of it. You know, I've got a podcast. Why wouldn't I want to do that?

[Mimi]

The podcast is here.

[Bunny]

Yeah. But, Jason, thank you for sitting in for Haley today. For those of you who don't know, this is Mimi's other half.

[Mimi]

Work Daddy.

[Bunny]

This is Work Daddy. Dude, you've been stepping up your. Your fucking content creation.

[Mimi]

What happened while I was gone? Is he that bored?

[Jason]

The ninja moves are crazy.

[Bunny]

No, and by the way, I think that's my hoodie that you guys are fighting over.

[Mimi]

It is 100%.

[Jason]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Bunny]

I'm like, I think that's mine, but continues. No, listen, we were in California, completely rooting you on.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

Like, literally. We were all like. I was like, are you watching Jason? And she's like, yes. I'm like, what is going on over there?

[Jason]

Adults talk to at home, so might as well talk to the Internet.

[Bunny]

But look, I think it's awesome because people are actually getting to really see your personality.

[Mimi]

Yeah. They get to see the side of you that I always get.

[Jason]

Well, now I'm getting a little more comfortable with myself. I'm a little able to get myself out there. And I love so shy about things.

[Bunny]

Remember when I had to make you guys get online?

[Mimi]

I hated being in front of the camera.

[Bunny]

Yes. Mimi. I literally had to make her. She made me get on Tik Tok, but I made her get online. I was like, if I have to do this online, so do you. I was like, you need to build your own brand, too. And she's like, okay. And you guys look about what you guys have built, though.

[Jason]

It's crazy.

[Bunny]

Yeah. I'm really proud of you guys, though. And everybody loves you guys.

[Jason]

We're pretty awesome.

[Bunny]

I feel like you guys bring, like, a different. Like, there's Jay and I and then there's you and. And Jason. And I feel like you give people a different glimpse into the other side of life. Like, everybody sees you working, and they see Jay working all the time, and they see Mimi or Haley working, but they don't get to see, like, what happens when you go home.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

And now they get to.

[Jason]

She's a real person. She has a life at home.

[Bunny]

Exactly. And, like, I've always tried to tell people, like, she's a she Owns a salon. She's a full time mom, she's a wife. And then, you know, when she's gone for two, three weeks, you're at home, Mr. Mommy and holding a dad.

[Mimi]

Yeah. It's crazy like that. And I think that doesn't get seen very often is like what happens when one of the parents have to leave and work is like, someone has to be both parents. And that's actually how I grew up. My dad was on the road and he's only home two days a week and he had to sleep for those two days. So my mom was basically a single mom. And that's kind of like Jason is like, when I'm gone, it is solely him. Thank God we have a great, great, great support system. Like, he wouldn't, we wouldn't be able to do it without having the support system that we do. But like, yeah, he, he's Mr. Mom. He combs the hair and like, he, he knows how to do Olivia's hair. He'll. He'll blow dry the kid's hair every night. And it's just. I think that's so cool.

[Bunny]

I love that too. Because most dads do not know how to do a little girl's hair.

[Jason]

Well, I get to give them a childhood that I wish I had as a kid. So it's always fun for me to like, just be a dad.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Jason]

At home. Give the kids a cool, steady life.

[Bunny]

Yeah, I love that. There's actually a kid downstairs right now. Yeah. Literally as we speak. I said, I feel like Liz and Cash have grown up just around this now.

[Mimi]

A hundred percent.

[Bunny]

It's. They're so used to filming and like, they know, they know.

[Mimi]

And I, I tell her, like, hey, we're quiet, we're filming. And she understands that because they make like little movies at home. And so it's like she kind of gets the dynamic. And I love that she inspires towards us. Like, Cash is really into wanting to go on a red carpet right now because of the week of watching you. He was like, but Auntie Bunny went on a red carpet. Why can't I go on a red carpet? He would have got a little.

[Bunny]

I'll bring him on the next red carpet.

[Mimi]

We do. I think that would be so funny. Is the guy with the mullet, literally.

[Bunny]

They'Ll be like, is this Jelly and Bunny's son? It'll start a whole fucking another. They've been hiding a six years from us. He's got a mullet too. I. Dude, Cash is mine, though, because literally we were on the first of all, Mimi was pregnant with Cash the entire time. We were, like, getting this podcast on the ground, so I feel like I partially carried him and birthed him.

[Jason]

Yes, If Jesse Murph can bring a pig, you can bring a Cash.

[Bunny]

Yeah, I can bring Cash, but. So Mimi was on the phone with me the other day, and Cash leans in and he goes, I farted. And I was like, that is the most bunny I've ever heard in my life. Like, it was.

[Mimi]

It was. It was. It was the first thing he said to her.

[Bunny]

Yeah, it was just so funny. So, yeah, I'm glad everybody's getting to see this side of Jason and all that jazz. But so it's been a crazy week. It's been a whirlwind. So, first of all, I just want to circle back to that clip of where I predicted there being a Grammy upset. I had predicted that there would be. That we would win one, but I didn't want to say it, but in my heart, I felt like we were going to do either two or three. I did not say it, though, because I was just scared and because sometimes I feel like I'm too close to Jay to be able to gauge certain things. But, boy, was I right about the Grammy upset.

[Jason]

Full sweep.

[Bunny]

Holy Mother of God. It has been crazy, wild. It has been insane. I mean, I'm talking, like, who would have thought that? And we'll get into this later, but who would have thought that my husband's speech would set the Internet on fire?

[Mimi]

It has literally shooketh the Internet. Shook.

[Jason]

I just don't see how you take something so positive and find some way, just weaponize it and make it like you didn't say anything bad.

[Bunny]

The problem is, is people are weaponizing the Bible and religion way more than they are celebrating the name of Jesus. And it's to the point where they're just proving why people do not want to be a Christian. For the longest time, I didn't want to be a Christian because of what I saw growing up. Everything that I saw was hypocrisy. The congregation just backbiting each other, and I'd speak about this all the time. Yeah, I talk about it in my book. You guys can get the whole, you know, thing from my book, but it's just. It's a per. I grew up around people who I did not want to be like, and seeing all of these people online just tearing apart my husband's walk of faith makes me not want to associate with that type of Christianity. Yeah, it's so horrific and it is so sad and it's borderline demonic, dude. When I've been seeing videos where people are one saying that my husband is performing, he's a performative Christian. Some fucking cut bag, I forget who she was, made a video and she's like, do you guys want to know what kind of Christian jelly roll is? It's a. For those of you who don't know, it's a performative Christian. And it's like, first of all, if I wasn't trying to walk with God, I would find you and slap the shit out of you, lady. Because your voice, the pitch was just so much. It was like nails on a fucking chalkboard. But I'm trying to turn the other cheek and be better to me. In what world is it okay to ever question somebody's walk with God? Yeah, my husband's not sitting there saying, you need to go to church, you need to, you need to donate to this frickin congregation. You need to donate to this church. He's not saying that. No, I could understand if he was like, you need to do this. This is what you need to do. He's literally not even saying anything. He's not asking for anything. All he's saying is, hey, Jesus is for everybody. Jesus does not belong to one political party. Jesus loves you. And the Internet lost their minds.

[Narrator/Announcer]

Yeah.

[Jason]

I just don't see how it's okay for people to audit other people's faith.

[Bunny]

For sure.

[Jason]

I mean, I'm not, I'm not religious. I have nothing against religion at all. But like to see, I saw a video this morning actually, and some guy was talking about, you know, Jelly and his Christianity and this guy's supposedly a real Christian, but it's like, so you're going to talk bad about somebody who's out there pushing your faith and doing good things for people while you're turning around on the Internet just making videos, spreading hate, but yet you're more Christian than the person you're talking about making.

[Bunny]

Videos, talking shit about my husband's walk with God. Knowing damn well you're probably in the creator fund and you know that my husband's name is going to bring views. How about donate that money to, to a good cause that you're making off of, off of talking about my husband, then. Yeah, you would never do that, because why would you? The only reason why you're even questioning my husband's faith is not because you genuinely care. It's because you want to make money off of his name and you want the views. And you know, right now, anything jelly roll is going to get views. Anything that has to do with me or my husband is going to get views right now because it's so controversial. My husband and I have been open and honest about our walk with God. I. If you go back to what was it like six months ago, I was on the podcast talking about how I stopped getting spell work done. We can insert that clip right here. I have been shying away from all of the occultic stuff.

[Mimi]

Yeah, you were telling me about that.

[Bunny]

IVF journey has really pushed me more towards my faith. You guys have heard me say on the podcast before that I have like witches that do my monthly spells and stuff like that. I quit doing that probably about four or five months ago.

[Mimi]

Wow.

[Bunny]

Like, I just don't want to mess around with it anymore. There' nothing fun about the occult. Granted, I'm drawn to like Dracula and like vampires and like, I love that era and I think it's just so romantic and beautiful. But like, when it comes to like spells and all the dark stuff, like, I don't want anything to do with it anymore. Yeah, I rebuke it. I stopped getting spell work done and I started leaning back into my faith more. People joke about OCD like it's being neat, but real ocd, it's terrifying, intrusive thoughts you cannot control. I know because I have it. The good news is OCD is one of the most treatable mental health conditions. And that's why I want to tell you about no cd. OCD is a serious and highly misunderstood condition that causes people to get stuck in a cycle of stressful, unwanted thoughts and repetitive behaviors, which can become debilitating as well as exhausting. OCD can focus on anything and often targets the things we care about the most, causing us to question core values, beliefs, or feelings about our loved ones. Because OCD is so misunderstood and can look so different from person to person, it's often misdiagnosed or not recognized at all. But with the kind of right help from a specialized therapist who truly understands what you're experiencing and is trained to treat it, OCD is extremely manageable at nocd. Every therapist deeply understands ocd. NOCD is the world's leading OCD treatment provider and all of their licensed therapists go through extensive training to recognize and effectively treat ocd. NOCD therapists work with you in live face to face virtual sessions. NOCD also makes sure you're supported between sessions with powerful in app tools. If any of this sounds familiar, please don't wait. Visit nocd.com and book a free call with their team to get connected to someone who can help. That's n o c d dot com. You know how every January we all say this is my year and then somehow February shows up and nothing's changed? Yeah, I've been there. But honestly, the difference between the idea staying a dream and actually becoming something real is taking that first step.

As I was going through this IVF journey because it really opened up my eyes to like, I don't know, it was just something about this IVF journey really made me want to lean on God and made me really see that creating a child is such a beautiful, mysterious, ethereal moment. And it just really, I don't know, it pointed out like a lot of the dark aspects of my life. Like, I still love astrology. I'm a work in progress. But to me I feel like astrology was always used in the Bible times and it was used for calendars and it's the study of stars. Astronomy is the study of stars. Astrology is the study of planets. It's like, right? Astrology is the study of planets. Don't quote me on that. This is dumb blonde for a reason. But I feel like it's all been used, you know, for good. Not for like casting spells or anything like that. I. And I keep seeing these freaking things that are like bunnies. A witch. I have never said I was a witch. I have never once ever said that. I have said that I am scared of witchcraft.

[Mimi]

You always say you're scared of it.

[Bunny]

Which is why I have. I had witches who, who did spell work for me, and look what happened. The minute I denounced any sort of witchcraft in my life, my husband starts winning Grammys. We have a huge announcement that we can announce right now happening. Like, you cannot tell me that God is not blessing our family for trying to do better and to be better. I have always been open about my walk as well as my husband. You know, everybody's critiquing his music and stuff like that. And I just want to kind of. Yeah, I want to kind of go back and like, set the record straight. There's a song that my husband sang about 15 years ago called Writing All Alone. And in that song he taught, he's in a graveyard because he lost a friend. And he's talking about how he goes to church, but he feels bad because he's not walking the walk. And he. In the song, he says, please, God, give me a sign. And I mean, this is 15 years ago. Anything in between that and when my husband met me, I guarantee you there's more stuff. I just haven't gotten into that, that far back with Jelly Roll. But I can attest for the minute I got with my husband, he wrote. It was in 2016, he wrote addiction Kills. And I think before that he had Sobriety sucks.

[Jason]

Now, I will say while you're doing that, yeah, if Bunny was a witch, these would know it. Yeah, there'd be women walking around, frog legs out there, tails, and I promise.

[Mimi]

You, there'd be some ugly ass bitches out there.

[Bunny]

I'm telling you. Listen, if I was that powerful, you guys are giving me way too much.

[Jason]

Volkswagen hanging out of their ass. Like, it would happen. Dude, you would know.

[Bunny]

I'm telling you.

[Jason]

Floating around the grocery store and shit, running into stuff.

[Bunny]

I'm telling you, don't give me a magic wand. You don't want me to have that power. So anyways, in 2016, 16, he wrote an album called Addiction Kills. And the fact that I even have to defend my husband, because I'm always gonna defend my husband. People are like, you don't have to defend him. Yes, I do. When there's millions of people trying to say that my husband is a performative Christian. I definitely have to to stand up for him because I know the truth. You guys literally live with us and know exactly how we roll. And also, Jason, insert my husband's speech at the CMA Awards when he was going off.

[Narrator/Announcer]

There is something poetic about a 39 year old man winning new artist of the year. I don't know where you're at in your life or what you're going through, but I want to tell you to keep going, baby. I want to tell you success is on the other side of it. I want to tell you it's going to be okay. I want to tell you that the windshield is bigger than the rear view mirror for a reason. Because what's in front of you is so much more important than what's behind you. Let's party, Nashville.

[Bunny]

Look at his emotion here and then look at his emotion here.

[Narrator/Announcer]

There was a time in my life, y', all, that I was. I was broken. That's why I wrote this album. I didn't think I had a chance, y'.

[Bunny]

All.

[Narrator/Announcer]

There was days that I thought the darkest things. I was a horrible human. There was a moment in my life that all I had was a bible this big and a radio the same size and a 6 by 8 foot cell. And I believed that those two things could change my life. I believe that music had the power to change my life and God had the power to change my life. And I want to tell y' all right now, Jesus is for everybody. Jesus is not owned by one political party. Jesus is not owned by no music label. Jesus is Jesus. And anybody can have a relationship with him.

[Bunny]

My husband is very like when he taught, honey, when he wakes up in the morning that that's how he talks.

[Mimi]

Passion.

[Bunny]

If he's passionate about something, he is just like. And they're like, oh, he's on drugs. It's like, bro, no, he's not. When he was fat and screaming in a microphone, nobody had a problem with it. But now that he's skinny and he's screaming in a microphone, the world wants to try to turn against him.

[Mimi]

Crazy.

[Bunny]

It's insane. It's really insane. People are always, oh, he's too fat, he's this, he's that. And the minute he gets skinny and says the same thing that he was saying freaking three years ago on a microphone, it's just, it's.

[Jason]

It's grateful for life. So he's going to have emotion, that's all.

[Bunny]

Yeah, I mean, I mean, he's, he's. The dude cries about everything now. My Husband didn't used to. Never cried about anything. And now that he's more in touch with his, like, emotional side and, like, healing from trauma, he freaking cries about everything.

[Mimi]

He'll tell you it. Like, one day he cried and it never stopped.

[Bunny]

Yes.

[Mimi]

Talks about it. It was. I believe it was when he got invited to perform at the Opry. That moment he cried and he was like, it unlocked something. And I never stopped.

[Bunny]

Yeah. So there is a song on Addiction Kills that is called Roll Me Up. And in that video. I directed that video at the Artisan. This was one of the first videos that I directed for my husband. And yes, it's a song talk. It's called Roll Me up and Smoke Me When I Die. But we were in a church, and he's literally on his knees praying in this video. There's just always been Christianity. There's always been symbolism. My husband was raised Methodist, and he walked. He went to church. He walked with God. And also there is a song called Heaven that he has on there, which, granted, in the beginning there was a lot of sexual undertones because we still were not fully like, hey, we're gonna be Christian. It was like we were dipping a toe in and out of, like, hey, I grew up in a Christian home, but I'm still rebelling. So there was, like, hints of that. And then the album after that was self medicated, had saved me on it. That's literally where he's talking about, somebody saved me and he's talking about God. There's a song on there called Rescue Me with Starlito. Like, there's just so much stuff on here that we can just continually go into ballads of the Broken what's at Chapel. Like, all of his music literally has always had Christian undertones. I could sit here and go on for hours and show you music videos. Even angels cry. He's baptizing people in a river. You know, like, this is not new. This is what. What you're watching is a man who is growing in his faith in front of everybody.

[Mimi]

Yep.

[Bunny]

It's not like he just woke up one day and was like, I'm gonna use Christianity to. Are you kidding me? They're the hardest crowd to please. Obviously. Look what's happening. You know, at least, like, when we were living in the secular world, nobody cared what we did. Like, I feel like we're being judged more by Christians than anything.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

It's because he did that song with Brandon Lake, which he loved that song. And when Brandon approached him about being on it, he was like, Absolutely. And then that's when all this, like, started and all this hate started. But really, if people did the research, we're talking about going back 15 years, my husband has always talked about God. Why is it not okay to let somebody live, learn, and grow in their faith? Just like I'm doing? Just like everybody's doing in this entire.

[Mimi]

Because we're human.

[Bunny]

Yeah.

[Mimi]

That's what's crazy is, like, people forget to let people be human. This is the first time all of us have ever lifed. Yeah. You know, like, this is the first time we're experiencing these things and doing these things. I have to remind myself that with my kids. Yeah. I'm like, you're lifing for the first time. Like, I am. We're learning this together, you know, and that's. I think a lot of people tend to forget that when they're looking at these people on these pedestals, they think for some reason they've lifed before and they should have it all. Right. And that they're not human, brother. Just like you.

[Bunny]

Yeah.

[Mimi]

They. They evolve and they create things and they.

[Narrator/Announcer]

It.

[Mimi]

No one's perfect.

[Bunny]

Yeah. It's just insane to see that. The outrage online. And then another thing that pissed people off is that we were dancing during Alex Warren's ordinary. First of all, Alex is the homie. We love Alex. His wife, by the way. A fucking smoke show. She's so beautiful.

[Mimi]

Love her so much.

[Bunny]

Gorgeous and so sweet. But again, we dance in our kitchen.

[Jason]

And they're like, dare you guys be happy.

[Narrator/Announcer]

I know.

[Bunny]

I've never seen people be so miserable that you can't even dance with the person you love at the Grammys. Like, I've never seen anybody do that, nor would I not want to see them do that. I think that would. That humanizes people. Like, my husband will grab my hand while we're in the kitchen cooking and we dance. Ask Bailey.

[Mimi]

You dance all the time.

[Bunny]

Bailey will literally throw up because she gets so mad that we're always dancing and kissing with each other. But, like, one, we wanted to support our friend. And two, that's what made you feel.

[Jason]

That's a genuine moment.

[Bunny]

You're having a time. Yeah. I didn't even think twice about it, you know, and the fact that people were just like, turn that into something bad. Like, what kind of world are we living in?

[Mimi]

Maybe because you guys are so outside the norm and you don't. And you aren't performative, it. It almost shocks people. It's like, how dare they be human, you know? And I feel like that's where what we're seeing is, like, you guys are so appreciative to where you are right now. And you guys act like everyone else in America does. Like, you know, you love each other and hold on each other, and that's just the couple you are. And that's hard for people to see in Hollywood.

[Bunny]

It's so weird. And I, I. And I've said it a million times before. I do understand why celebrities do not give the Internet anything anymore. Yes, you can't, because you can't. Like, and I don't even think we're celebrities. Like, to me, I'm like, we're just normal, everyday people. So the fact that I have to think, like, I can't even be real. You guys make us not want to be real.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

You guys make us not want to fudgeing, give you anything. That's why I will never talk about my IVF journey publicly, because look what you. These people are doing.

[Mimi]

What did you say? Like, they like to. You like to hold things pressure.

[Bunny]

I, I hold things close to my chest because they destroy things that are beautiful.

[Mimi]

Yep.

[Bunny]

And it's like, that's what they're trying to do with just our, Our, you know, growing in our faith. They try to do it with our relationship. And I, I didn't stand for that. So they moved on to something else, you know, and for the love of God, can we stop using. Well, her husband? I don't want a love story like her. Her husband cheated on her. It's like, oh, my God. Like, bro, listen, that was seven years ago. If I'm over it, why the aren't you?

[Jason]

Yeah, just something to be mad about.

[Bunny]

I'm over it. You guys are constantly reminding me about it. It's like, it's. It's the weirdest thing when you care so much about where my husband's dick has been. And it's like they keep trying to, like, analyze and that the entire affair story is in my book. You guys will know everything from start to finish with the affair and how everything played out. And I think that's why everybody keeps speculating, because they're just like, oh, you know, they only know bits and pieces. My husband literally dropped a, you know.

[Mimi]

A little tidbit, hasn't been told yet. And until the book is out. Yeah, they just have to wait.

[Bunny]

The whole story has never been told. I've told bits and pieces of it on, like, my podcast or, like, other podcasts, but I've never told the full actual Story. And you guys will have the full story to consume, to eat, to dissect, to do whatever you want. But it was seven years ago. No child was produced from that affair. That's another thing.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

Everybody keeps saying that our sweet baby boy Noah was from that affair. That's a lie. That was not. He was never from that. Noah has been around since Jay and I first got together. She was nine months pregnant when Jay and I first got together. So read the book. You guys will be able to know the whole story. And hopefully you guys can get over that narrative, because it's so fucking weird.

[Jason]

Yeah, it's old.

[Bunny]

It's old. Yes. Like, literally, like, seven years ago. You don't think that I didn't put my husband through hell? Like, come on.

[Jason]

She did.

[Bunny]

Yeah, she did. I mean, I put that through hell for what he did.

[Jason]

Growing.

[Bunny]

Rightfully so. And yes, again, we were growing. And, you know, people are trying to use that against my husband for his faith. Now, how many preachers have cheated on their wives and you guys forgive them, but my husband did something when he wasn't even walking in faith, and you still want to hold that against him.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

Like, it's crazy. It is wild. But the Grammys. The experience at the Grammys was beautiful.

[Mimi]

Great.

[Bunny]

It was experience. So cool. Let's recount how it went.

[Mimi]

The amount of memes I've seen come out of this about you is so great. I've shared everyone that has come across my feed.

[Bunny]

Sharon. I've always wanted to be a meme.

[Mimi]

Yeah, there you go.

[Bunny]

Literally, Mother Goth mama came on the podcast. Sharon Osborne, dude. What an incredible woman. What a freaking testimony. What a. And, like, you guys are gonna hate me for this, and I don't care. Dolly has always been number one in my book. She just got knocked down to number two.

[Mimi]

Same.

[Bunny]

Sharon Osborne is number one, man.

[Mimi]

Really? It's a whole. Meeting her gave me a completely different perspective. I've always loved her, but there was just something about it that just.

[Bunny]

She is just. She's a bulldog.

[Mimi]

Yes.

[Bunny]

And she don't play, but she's so honest. And, like, literally sitting there talking to her, just listening to how she and how vulnerable she was with us. Man, you guys are going to be in tears with this podcast. It drops in season 11. Which is when?

[Mimi]

Very soon.

[Bunny]

We don't know when it is. Drops in season 11. Sooner than later, for sure. But sitting down with her for two hours and just the whole Osborne family has completely wrapped their arms around Jay and I, and, I mean, Kelly, you Guys need to leave my girl Kelly the fuck alone, dude. Like this girl, this family just lost the patriarch of their family. We're talking about a little girl who was best friends with her father. Just lost her freaking best friend. Have you guys never watched that? I'm going through like, I have goosebumps right now. Have you guys never watched that? Watch the I'm Going Through Changes video with Ozzy Osbourne and Kelly. Have you ever watched it?

[Mimi]

Oh, yeah.

[Bunny]

You can see the bond they have. You know that little girl looked up to that man and that he was her hero.

[Mimi]

Yes.

[Bunny]

Sharon has been through decades with that man. Decades of ups and downs. No matter what they went through as a couple, the love still remained the same. So for anybody online to say one negative thing about that family or about their appearance, go fuck yourself. Yeah, I will stand 10 toes down for that family, dude. They have done nothing but wrap our family in love and just be so fucking amazing. My heart breaks for the sadness that that family feels right now. And if I could take it away from them, I would.

[Mimi]

You will never know unless you're ever put into that place.

[Bunny]

Ever, ever, ever, ever. And you know Jack too. Jack has been literally the rock for those girls. Sharon really reveals a lot on the podcast and I can't wait till you guys hear it. But man, leave. Leave that family alone.

[Mimi]

I have a hard time watching them watch Post Malone do the tribute. It literally breaks my heart. Yeah, I can't. I'm crying thinking about it.

[Bunny]

Yeah.

[Mimi]

Good lord.

[Bunny]

No. There's just that they're literally missing a part of their soul.

[Mimi]

Yes, they literally lost it.

[Bunny]

How brave of them to even Come out and do Grammy week. How brave of Sharon to sit on our podcast in tears, talking about the man that she loves. How brave of Kelly to step out of her house to be critiqued in honor of her father. Like, these people have given us their lives for decades. The least we could do is give them some grace and some love. Because the. That I've been seeing online is just insane. Like, this world is so up. It just angers me. I want to fight everybody.

[Mimi]

She does. She really. If she could see if she was a witch, she would just. Just fight everyone.

[Bunny]

I'm telling you, if I had a magic wand, I'd be like, just off the earth. Off the earth. Like, I couldn't do it.

[Mimi]

Like, how lucky are we to have Osborne's bro?

[Bunny]

I truly feel like they're like our royalty.

[Mimi]

They are America's royalty. Like a world, like. I'm sorry. It's like the world, like, they. We are so lucky to have ever been able to experience them as a family.

[Bunny]

Yeah. Let's talk about Youngblood.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

Beautiful creature that man is.

[Mimi]

This has been the coolest thing to happen to music in a very, very long time.

[Bunny]

Yeah. Youngblood is a real rock star.

[Mimi]

True.

[Bunny]

I love him. I love his energy. He's got the sweetest energy. And it's very true. When he talks to you, he talks with his mouth. So he leans into you and you're just kind of like, you know, like, you just want to give him a big old smooch because he's just like, he's so sweet and passionate. Yes. Yes.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

And his girlfriend, Jesse Jo Stark, she is gorgeous. She's so pretty in person, too. I'm not saying she's not in pictures, but you know how some people are like, they take your breath away. Yes. She's like a classic beauty. And she's so sweet. Like, I leaned over and I said hi, and it's so nice to meet you. And she just lit up, had the biggest smile and just was so sweet. I think they're like. They're like. They remind me of the 90s rock couples. You know, like, we. We're missing that. Thank you, gu, for bringing that back, because the world needs that.

[Mimi]

That they are exactly what music is missing right now.

[Bunny]

It's 100%. And I think she does like. Isn't she like the fashion designer for Chrome Hearts or something like that? So get at your girl, Jesse. Get at your girl. Yeah, yeah, please. Even if I just get a frickin give me one fucking Chrome hearts necklace. I don't even care. I'll wear it every day. No, I'm just kidding. But no, I love, love that Youngblood is a real rock star. I love that he's been loving on the Osbornes, too.

[Mimi]

But he's also, like, soft spoken, too. Like, very little bit, like, a little, like. But, like, when he, like, talks passionately, it's like, it's right there. It doesn't have to be like, this loud thing. Like, while he looks loud and he can be loud. It's like, I love watching him interact with people. Like how he interacts with Sharon.

[Bunny]

Yeah.

[Mimi]

It's very, like, compassionate. And it doesn't have to be this, like, big performative thing. It's very, like. Like caring and endearing.

[Bunny]

What I love about him is he knows he's the rock star in the room.

[Mimi]

Yes.

[Bunny]

And he doesn't have an ego about it. He doesn't have to prove it, which I think a lot of people that are in rock tend to have egos because it's like, I'm better than you. You know, not. Not pointing out anybody specifically. It's just gone down in the history of time.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

That all rock stars have a lot of ego. And he genuinely just does not have an ego. My husband loves him to death with.

[Mimi]

Yeah. He reminds me a lot of Ozzy.

[Bunny]

Yeah.

[Mimi]

The stories. Yeah. The story Sharon was telling on the podcast, I was like, it does remind me of.

[Bunny]

Yes.

[Mimi]

Him a lot.

[Bunny]

She probably sees a young Aussie in him.

[Mimi]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Bunny]

God, I couldn't imagine, like, when I'm Sharon's age and, like, you know, looking at younger jellies, it would be so crazy, right?

[Mimi]

It would be. It'd be like looking in, like a time machine.

[Bunny]

Yeah.

[Mimi]

Sort of thing.

[Bunny]

She's seen so much. Much.

[Mimi]

She really has. I was. The lore that she brought was just like, I knew about her, but it was like. To hear it straight from her was truly remarkable.

[Bunny]

Two hours was not enough time with her. I feel like we could do a part 2, 3, and 4 with her because there's just so much I wanted to ask her, but I didn't want to. I mean, we had her for two hours, so I didn't want to keep going on.

[Mimi]

You were able to get the picture, but now I want you to go in and, like, dissect.

[Bunny]

Yeah.

[Mimi]

Picture.

[Bunny]

Yeah. Tate McCray. I saw her in person.

[Mimi]

So, so amazing.

[Bunny]

She's like supermodel pretty. It's. I. I looked over at her and I was like, ah, Pretty in person. I was so mad. I was just like, no, I wasn't mad. I was just like. I wanted to go say hi to her, but I didn't want to bother her because, you know, she was being surrounded by people. But she's so. And she's tall. I don't know if it was the heels. Yeah, I don't know if it was the heels she was in, but she's like, my height. Height.

[Mimi]

Wow.

[Bunny]

Yeah. If not, maybe a little taller. So it could have been the heels, but no, just beautiful. Gorgeous. Buster Rhymes. Bust a Buster Rhymes.

[Mimi]

One of my favorite humans.

[Bunny]

He is such an og.

[Mimi]

Yes.

[Bunny]

And such a joy. And every time I see him, he's like, bunny, you're so beautiful. And he always gives me a big wet kiss.

[Mimi]

Yes.

[Bunny]

If you have not lived life unless you got a wet kiss from Busta.

[Mimi]

Rhymes, it's the most exhilarating thing.

[Bunny]

It is. You got one.

[Mimi]

I got four.

[Jason]

She counted.

[Mimi]

Every time I came in the room on that fourth one, I was like, all right.

[Bunny]

Listen. Well, I don't think people understand because Busted does always have that, like, you know, that OG mentality. And, like, don't play with me. And for some reason, the. The videos of him going mean go viral. Maybe we should post all the ones of him. He's a lover.

[Mimi]

Lover.

[Bunny]

Busta Rhymes is a true Romeo. Like, when he meets you, he's gonna love down.

[Mimi]

Oh, for sure.

[Bunny]

Yeah. He's going to love you down when he sees you.

[Mimi]

It's great. I enjoy it. And he embraces. Cuz he's so big.

[Bunny]

Yeah, he's tall.

[Mimi]

He's so tall that he, like, engulfs you.

[Jason]

You got high energy.

[Bunny]

He's like.

[Narrator/Announcer]

That'S exactly what.

[Bunny]

That's what a Busta Rhyme kiss feels like. It's just like. It's a big old smooch. Yeah, we love Busta for it, though.

[Mimi]

Don't you have that on video, Jaime 1000?

[Jason]

I have, like, all four, I think, on.

[Bunny]

Yeah, you need to post that. And I have the ones of us, too.

[Mimi]

Yeah, please. We'll just all post postal.

[Bunny]

No, he's great.

[Mimi]

I adore him so much because, like, you know, you never know what you're gonna get when you meet someone. And, like, especially having watched someone like that your whole life, and I could not have been happier how he actually is as a human. It just made. It made me love him that much more.

[Bunny]

No, he's a great dude, but I got to see him. Haley Bieber and Justin Bieber, they sat right behind us.

[Mimi]

Yeah. How was that?

[Bunny]

Beautiful.

[Mimi]

How was his performance? In person.

[Bunny]

Amazing. I don't feel like his performance translated how good it was on screen as it was in person. First of all, that was a huge you to the music industry. Him walking out there with just a guitar, his little bass thing, and his boxers on.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

He was pretty much like, I'm not here to dance for you. I'm here to. To do my. I want you to hear my voice.

[Mimi]

Yes.

[Bunny]

Probably his abs, too, which. Which didn't hurt. But he was like, I want you to hear my voice. And that. He sang his heart out. And then Haley at the end, you.

[Mimi]

Know, I loved that so much.

[Bunny]

I think, you know, she gets such a bad rap, dude. I feel so bad because she's constantly bullied online. Constantly compared to Selena. And it's like, from what I saw, they look like a really happy couple that's in love, that is raising a young baby together.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

You know, like. Like, she seems unbothered. And she. I didn't. I didn't want. Again, I didn't want to go up to her and be like, hey, Haley, you know, because I feel like everybody's in her face. But, yeah, sitting next to Teddy Swims was a treat.

[Mimi]

Yeah. How was that?

[Bunny]

Teddy is a lunatic. He is so funny, but he's a good lunatic.

[Mimi]

Yes.

[Bunny]

Like, I didn't expect that personality out of him because I've never really. He seems so serious when you look at him. Like, he always seems so serious. Guess. But he's really a jovial dude.

[Mimi]

He really is.

[Bunny]

Yeah, he's funny. He's definitely funny. He definitely has a crush on Sabrina Carpenter.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

Yeah. So Sabrina. I don't know if I'm allowed to say that.

[Mimi]

Oh.

[Jason]

Keep it over here.

[Bunny]

I mean, but who doesn't?

[Mimi]

Everyone has a crush.

[Bunny]

Doesn't Sabrina? Like, And Sabrina's even a freaking meme right now because of when she. When Bad Bunny walked out, she literally was, like, licking her lips. Not at him, but, like. And, yeah, the world turned it in.

[Mimi]

So she doesn't look crusty. She's like, I want to make sure my lips look nice. Like, I. I get it.

[Bunny]

One complaint I do have about the Grammys is, though you mofos will keep us parched the entire time that we're sitting there. Like, at least have bottles of water. We don't want glasses of water where we don't know where they came from.

[Mimi]

Jelly was so upset about that.

[Bunny]

Like, you guys are a. Damn. The Grammys. Can we get a little bottle crack open?

[Mimi]

That is so funny. Like, both you and him Were like. Like, I need water.

[Bunny]

Yeah. Was it hot?

[Jason]

Was it cold in there? How was it?

[Bunny]

The room temperature was great. And it's. It's always an amazing experience, but, you know, like, stuck there for two hours, like, have a damn bottle of water.

[Mimi]

Yeah, we need some kind of get the Grammy sponsored by some type of water.

[Bunny]

Yeah.

[Mimi]

Come on, guys.

[Bunny]

Mountain Valley, let's go. You guys don't sponsor me? Sponsor the Grammys? Who else? Reba was there, of course.

[Jason]

She's so beautiful.

[Bunny]

I'm trying to get Reba on the podcast.

[Mimi]

Shaboozle.

[Bunny]

Shaboozle. Okay, let's talk about Shabuzzi. I saw Shaboozi the night before at the Clive Davis party, and he is the cutest thing. He ran up to me, and he was like, bunny. I was like, hi. And he's like, does Jelly have a Grammy speech already written? I was like, no. I was like, you know, my husband is freestyle role. I was like, he's not. I said, he hasn't done anything. And he's like, well, I have. He's like, I wrote a Grammy speech. And I was like. I was like, boozle. Because I call him Shaboozle. I was like, boozle. That is. You're manifesting. And he's like, you think so? And I was like, oh, yeah. He goes, I feel like the world needs us. You know, black, white. I said, ebony, ivory. And he's like, yes. He's like, yes, Robin big. And I was like, all right, well, you know, fucking fingers crossed. And then as we're getting ready, we get the phone call. You guys saw the clip that I posted. I. And can I just address why Jay and I were in separate rooms? Really quick?

[Mimi]

Are people saying something?

[Bunny]

People are saying something about it. I was in a separate dressing room, or I was in a separate room because I don't like to get ready with my husband. He has his entourage. I have my entourage. They're freaking doing dabs.

[Mimi]

And it's a lot of people, for.

[Bunny]

One, being a man in their room. And I don't want to be around 10 dudes while I'm sitting in a robe getting my makeup done. And so I have my own room all the time. I know that's hard for some people to believe, but. And I pay for it myself.

[Mimi]

Yourself?

[Bunny]

Myself. You know, like, anyways, we get the phone call. He wins the Grammy with Shabuzzi, and we're just. I'm so excited. I'm like, do we go up there? Like, we were, like, mid makeup, and we had 30 minutes to get ready.

[Mimi]

You hear him scream off his balcony. Yeah, we got it on video. We, like, literally all stopped, and we said, was that him? Yeah.

[Bunny]

So we ran up there, hugged Daddy loved on him, and then we go back down and we're getting ready. Twenty minutes later, he gives me a call. I got another one. And I mean, I'm getting goosebumps right now because literally, we were just like, oh, I knew he was gonna win the one with Brandon Lake. I told him that since I first heard the song. I said, this is your Grammy right here. You are going to win a Grammy for this song. So, I mean, again, just another celebration. And so those two. A lot of people are questioning this, too. They're like, how. How does he know he won three Grammys? Two were off camera.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

One was Shaboozy. One was Brandon Lake. The last one, we had no idea he was going to win. We really thought Kelsey Ballerini was going to win. And he even said that pre interview.

[Mimi]

You guys on the carpet said, yeah.

[Bunny]

I think Kelsey Kelsey deserves a Grammy.

[Mimi]

Yeah, she does.

[Bunny]

Kelsey deserves a Grammy. Give our girl a Grammy, man. She literally pours her heart out and soul into albums and performing and does everything right. There's no reason why she keeps getting snubbed by the Grammys. And she was so, so sweet. After Jay won the Grammy, I ran into her in the hallway, and she was just like, you guys deserve it. And she was just so sweet about it. And, like, I mean, I love Kelsey. Kelsey's. She has a wall up when you first meet her, but then as the more you get to know her, her walls come down, and she's just the swee.

[Jason]

That was a tough fucking lineup. Like, when I was at home and I heard, I was like, oh, shit. That's.

[Mimi]

How do you make that decision, dude?

[Bunny]

Tyler Shoulders. I love my husband, but I'm a Tyler Childers. Yeah, I mean, I thought for sure he was going to get it. Kelsey was going to get it. Like, Miranda Lambert, the og. Like, we really thought Miranda was going to get it, too. So it's like, we didn't think we had a chance in hell. So when I started recording, I had no idea that I was actually going to record him winning the Grammy, which I'm so glad I have that pov, because it's really just a beautiful, beautiful thing to add to our, you know, stockpile of footage of this crazy ride we call life. And he was so shocked that he won that he goes and he hugs Reba.

[Narrator/Announcer]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

And listen to Be honest.

[Mimi]

Honest.

[Bunny]

I was fine with it because I had tears in my eyes and I just, I. I couldn't believe it. I needed to self regulate too, because if you hear in the video, I literally screamed. I was like, daddy, like.

[Mimi]

And you don't scream.

[Bunny]

I don't scream.

[Mimi]

You don't. Like, you don't go above a level six.

[Bunny]

No.

[Mimi]

Ever. No.

[Bunny]

And I was just like, oh, my God. I couldn't believe it. And then he's like walking and he's like, oh, my God. And he runs back over. That. That, to me, was just such a beautiful moment because it really shows a man who was in disbelief and was dazed to the fact that he had no idea what was going on.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

You know? No. And for a man to go from zero to three Grammys in one day, that's Mariah Carey type.

[Mimi]

That's insane. Like, other than Bad Bunny, did he win the most amount?

[Bunny]

I don't know. How many did Bad Bunny win?

[Mimi]

I. I don't know. But I heard, can we pull it up the after? Yeah, give that a gook. I heard, you know, everyone talking, they're like, are we second up for the most in the night? So I. I never gave it a.

[Bunny]

Go, but we left right before Lady Gaga's performance because, you know, we were ready to. We were just ready to get ready for a ball.

[Mimi]

How do you go sit back down after something like that?

[Bunny]

Yeah, we just wanted a bottle of water.

[Jason]

I'm thirsty.

[Narrator/Announcer]

Okay.

[Bunny]

And then my husband and I got separated for like an hour and a half afterwards. We couldn't find each other. It was the craziest thing. He got separated. Oh, so bad buddy.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

One.

[Bunny]

Three, two, three.

[Jason]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

Oh, wow. So they tied. Wow.

[Mimi]

The most amount of grammar Grammys. Wow.

[Bunny]

Let's go. That's insane. Has Bad Bunny won Grammys before?

[Jason]

Yeah, I think he'd won last year. Let me check.

[Bunny]

Okay, cool. Yeah. No, I mean, the whole night was a dream. We were so lucky to be there. We are so thankful to be there, you know?

[Mimi]

How'd you guys find each other?

[Bunny]

How did we find each other? So I was standing, I saw him, and he's like, baby, I have to go to the bathroom. Because, you know, when he gets excited, he has to shit. So he goes in the bathroom. He goes in the bathroom and me, Vessio, his publicist, Jill Fritzo, my publicist. And. Oh, God, I got to be fucking Baba Booie from the Howard Stern show, dude. Yes. I mean, first of all, that was the highlight of my night. I was so still dazed from everything that was going on, that he walked up and I'm looking at him, I'm like, this man looks so familiar. And Jill's like, ba, ba booie, or Gary, whatever his name is from the Howard Stern show. And I go, baba Booie. And he was like, yes. And he had read the book and he was like, man, you really didn't hold back. And I'm like, this seems to be the consistence. Everybody's saying this. I'm like, maybe I'm a little worried about what's in this book now because everybody's coming for me.

[Mimi]

They say the same thing every time.

[Bunny]

Like, every time.

[Mimi]

Did you leave anything out?

[Bunny]

I'm like, actually, I did, but no, meeting him was great. Yeah.

[Jason]

Can we talk about Loli Young? I love her. I loved her for so long. Yeah, let's see her pop back out was amazing.

[Bunny]

And she's so sweet. So when we were leaving, she was coming in to do press as we were leaving, and our team's kind of, like, exchanged highs and, like, her and her INJ talked and she's so sweet and just so. She's actually kind of soft spoken, but she's gorgeous.

[Jason]

She's beautiful.

[Mimi]

I love her so much.

[Bunny]

She's gorgeous.

[Jason]

Her whole style, her voice is amazing.

[Bunny]

Love her. Like, totally rooting for. For Lola. And I just, Man, I'm so excited for her and what's to come for her. She's a real musician.

[Mimi]

She really is.

[Bunny]

To sit there and play the piano at the Grammys and sing how heartfelt and how deep, deeply, just her voice.

[Mimi]

Alone was just so emotional to listen to.

[Bunny]

Emotional. So just, like, I don't know, just. She draws you in, and I love her.

[Mimi]

And you can tell that celebrities love her. She's that celebrity that celebrities love, which I really love because, like, watching her perform, even when she won her Grammy, like, the way she, like, got up and literally just ran, like, I thought that was so sweet. But then, like, watching how the crowd just was in awe of her, I really love that. I, like, I love when someone is so loved, and she really is. And I love that she took her time for herself and knew that she needed that so that she could come out and be the best version of her herself. And I, I. It's very admirable.

[Bunny]

Yeah, absolutely. No, Lola's great. And I love that she is a mental health advocate, and I love that she publicly was like, hey, man, I need to take a break.

[Mimi]

Yes.

[Bunny]

Like, I'm overwhelmed, because that was the same time. And Jay Actually got to tell her this behind the stage was like, hey, you being so public about your mental health and saying, hey, I need to take a break helped encourage me to be like, hey, I'm not okay. I need to go home to my family. So, yeah, no, she's a sweetheart. Towards the end, I was like, lola, are you following us? Because we kept, like, you know.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

So sweet. Would love to have Lola on the podcast. What else? Man, I feel like we're forgetting so much.

[Mimi]

Trying to think. It was just so much to. To take in, because so many different aspects of people and everything.

[Bunny]

A bunch of projects that are coming out that you guys don't know about yet, but they're going to be coming out. Book drops February 17th. First show is February 16th. 10 days.

[Mimi]

Yep.

[Bunny]

I'm not doing it. I keep telling them. I'm like, if we don't get gonna pull the string, I'm literally threatening it. I just want to let you guys know, I am threatening to pull this book tour if it doesn't turn out perfect. That's how serious I am about having a good show for you guys, because.

[Jason]

It'S gonna be crazy.

[Bunny]

Yeah, I'm excited. There's just so much good that's happening. And, you know, I know that everything online can seem like, oh, my God, you know, it's. It's this, it's that. But for the first time in my life, nothing online has bothered me.

[Jason]

Good.

[Mimi]

I love to hear that.

[Bunny]

Nothing has. You would know. I would tell you. I would be frustrated. There was one little thing that kind of pissed. Pissed me off because it wasn't true. There's a lot of things that aren't true, but this one pissed me off because this person outright lied. But I'm not even going to address it because she doesn't deserve it. No, but other than that, like, there's so much hate online. There's so much division in the world. And I want you guys to know that there is so much more to life than that. When you set that phone down, all that negativity disappears.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

The only time that negativity is relevant is when you're consuming it.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

Take breaks. Some of you guys need to take breaks. And I'm not going to use the terminology touch grass, because I feel like that's insulting, but I genuinely feel like if the world could just take a.

[Jason]

Break, take a look around you.

[Bunny]

Sit your phone down. Go eat lunch with somebody that you love face to face without your phone. Go work out for an hour without your phone. Just get into the habit of picking up your phone maybe a couple times a day to just check in, post your content. If you're a content creator and log right, back off.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

Because none of that matters. Dude, numbers don't lie. We're selling books like a. You know, I mean, you woke up today.

[Jason]

Be grateful.

[Bunny]

Have a good day. I was reading. I. I have this new app where I am reading the. The Bible and I fall asleep at night listening to it. And last night I've started reading the book of Psalms, which to me, first of all, poetic af. Okay. I did not realize the Bible was so poetic. And in this one part, I don't know the full verse, but there was a part that just hit me like a ton of bricks. It said, their hearts are full of malice and their throats are open graves.

[Mimi]

Whoa.

[Bunny]

And I was just like, I know the Lord's talking to me because of what we're going through right now online to hear the Lord speak to me through psalms and say their throats are.

[Jason]

Open graves at a time you needed it.

[Bunny]

I was like, goodness. And yes, I still cuss. I'm. I'm trying to get that under control. But I was. Was flabbergasted.

[Jason]

Okay.

[Bunny]

I was like, I was like, Lord. You know, like it was just one of those moments where. Cuz when you really think about people who are online gossiping about other people, their throats are open graves. Like o. So anyways, I'll leave you. I'll leave you with that and I might have some more cool psalm stuff. Cuz I didn't realize how cool Psalms was.

[Mimi]

Like, so when you're listening, listening to this, how is it being translated to you in sense of like, is someone reading it to you? Or.

[Bunny]

I'm gonna play you a snippet right now. So it's this app called not sponsored. Yeah, not sponsored, guys. It's this app called Dwell and it has like a little heart emoji on it and you click on it. So I'm on Psalms right here. And you get to pick the voice that you want. Hold on, I'm trying to see where I left off last night. Yeah, here we go. So. So I'm on. Oh, it was Psalms. No, I think it was a little bit more before that. But you pick the voice that you want and it's Psalms 15. Four is what I left off on interest.

[Mimi]

Who does not accept a bribe against the innocent.

[Bunny]

Whoever does these things will never be shaken. So that's how it talks. And it just reads. And I just listen to it as I'm falling asleep at night. It's like an audiobook, Literally, like an audiobook. And I'm just. That's how I'm gonna get through it, because I tried to sit down and read the bible and do a real, like, Bible study. I. It's just like, school. I can't. But if I'm listening to it all day long, can do it all day long. So I'm like, you know what? This is. This is cool. I liked it, but, yeah, no, it was awesome, and I really needed to hear that verse, so. Oh, yeah. Okay. So I did the Kelly Clarkson show, guys. My first talk show, and everybody says I did really good.

[Mimi]

You did.

[Bunny]

So we'll see, everybody. Love the outfit, too.

[Jason]

You sure? Are you crying backstage watching her? Yes. Yeah.

[Mimi]

Bald. My eyes out. I know.

[Bunny]

I know. The one piece of hair was driving her crazy.

[Mimi]

If I could have raised. I ran out, stopped the show, and fixed the hair, I would have. It's all, like, particular.

[Jason]

Beautiful.

[Bunny]

Thank you. I appreciate that. We did the Kelly Clarkson show. It's going to air February 25, which, symbolically, is the day that I lost my best friend Grace. So I think that's crazy how the universe has played out, because it was supposed to air February 4th, but they pushed it to February 25th. So. Yeah. So first show, February 16th in New York. Work that I'm doing a ton of press. You guys are going to be tired of your girl, because I'm going to be on everything. Really Cool. Announcement that I cannot announce yet. When can I announce that?

[Mimi]

When they give us the green light.

[Bunny]

Son of a. Like, if you could rally people to get behind you, like, a couple weeks in advance, do you know how big of a pop you would have to be able to promote like that? That's just how I feel. Well, look how it's done with the book. I literally started promoting the book last.

[Mimi]

Year before talking about this book. Literally since day one. That's been crazy.

[Bunny]

Yeah. So, I mean, and obviously it paid off because, look, you know, we sold so many books, but doing a ton of press. And then we come home, we have our Nashville show. Go to la, LA show, Vegas show, back to back, and then your girl's getting a facelift. March 15th. Let's go.

[Mimi]

She's like, I'm out.

[Bunny]

It's going to tack it back just a little bit. Just a little bit.

[Mimi]

I'm excited for that. Like, that going to that appointment got me hyphy. I was like, what do you want to cut? It was like, it was like watching, like, a magician. Like, he was just like, so. Like a scientist, I guess, you know, oh, I would do this. And he was so technical. And what I loved is, like, he told you what you didn't need, even.

[Bunny]

Though you asked for things. This is what I respect about Dr. Gold because. Because most of the time, if you have the money and you go in and you say, hey, I want this. They're gonna do it just for the money. I said, Dr. Gold, I want an under eye bluff. And he was like, no. He pretty much was.

[Mimi]

And he.

[Bunny]

Bless his heart, most plastic surgeons do not have, like, fun personalities. They're very serious. But I got him to crack a smile, which made me happy. But he was like, no, I'm not doing that. He's like, you don't need it. He goes, if I do that, it's gonna make your eyes look weird. Weird.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

And I was like, respect?

[Mimi]

Yeah. No, he knew what you wanted your face to look like and knew what it was going to take to get there. And I really enjoyed that about him. And, like, even little things, like with lips or like how you like showing you your face in the mirror, like, that was even super important, too.

[Bunny]

I asked him for a lip lift, and he told me no. Like, do you know how many doctors are doing lip lifts now?

[Mimi]

Everyone is.

[Bunny]

Everybody. Everybody has a lift. Lift. He told me no. He's like, no, I'm not doing that.

[Mimi]

Yeah.

[Bunny]

I was like, well, what will you do? What will you do, buddy? So, yeah, March 15th. I'm scared, but at the same time, it's like, I don't know. I feel like if I get it done now, I don't have to do it when I'm 65.

[Mimi]

Conquered. So many fears, though, that this is a cakewalk.

[Bunny]

Yeah. I'm just scared of the versed, or versed, whatever they call it. It. So Jay had to have anesthesia for something, right. And it was the verse. And literally they gave him the medication.

[Mimi]

Right.

[Bunny]

And I look over at him laying in bed, and he goes like this. He's so fucked up. He looks at me and he goes. And I was like, I'm gonna beat you up while you're under right now. But I don't want to be that up. There's nothing about that sounds fun to me. I don't know what will come out of my mouth.

[Mimi]

Yeah. She goes, you want to come in? No, I don't.

[Bunny]

You have to.

[Mimi]

Well, yeah, but I'm gonna record like this.

[Jason]

Oh, yeah, I'll pass.

[Bunny]

Because I Will passed poopy diapers. Fingers.

[Mimi]

His fingers are going to be in your face. No.

[Bunny]

Oh.

[Mimi]

Oh, I can't. I watch it on. I have to scroll so fast when they come up on my. For you, like, I'm literally probably.

[Bunny]

Are you gonna be able to film it?

[Narrator/Announcer]

You know what?

[Jason]

I'll do it, but, yeah, it might be like.

[Mimi]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bunny]

You don't have to film the whole thing. Just pieces.

[Mimi]

We'll just. We'll just GoPro.

[Jason]

What kind of pieces? Yeah, go put a GoPro on Dr. Gold.

[Mimi]

Yeah, can we, like, three, you know, like those 360 cameras?

[Jason]

That would be crazy.

[Bunny]

And it just drops on me while he's. While he's doing my facelift. Oh, God. I have, like, one side of my eye is smushed from the implant print of the GoPro.

[Jason]

GoPro SD card falls in the skin.

[Bunny]

I don't want it. All right, guys. Thank you guys for tuning in to another episode of Dumb Blonde. I'll see you guys next week. Bye. Don't.
