Proud sponsor of my Coultura podcast network. It's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Part two. She's breaking down the top seven segments from the Bobby Bowen show this week. What's up, everybody? Hey everybody. Happy weekend. It's best bits time. You're getting caught up on the Bobby Bone Show. Maybe you're cleaning the house or having a relaxing weekend. Maybe you're putting up your Christmas decorations, which I fully approve. Whatever you're doing, I'm so happy that you're here. And we are gonna get caught up on things that happen on the show this week. Before we do that, I'd love for you to go check out part one and part three with Scuba Steve this weekend. We caught up on life in part one. Talked about dad life, basketball. I took myself on a hot date by myself, you know, took myself kind of situation. And then part three, we answered listener questions that were totally a grab bag. Random ask us anything and it was fun. Talked about dinosaurs and crazy stories and alcohol beverages. All good stuff. But the reason you're here, if you decide not to jump out for part one and part three, let's get into this week. Woohoo. We did another Tuesday reviews day this week. Everybody loves this because there's so much content out there to consume and what's good, what's up your alley, what isn't, and hopefully you get a little taste of everything with this one. We shared stuff from Netflix, Apple tv. Plus there's a lot of good recommendations this week that everybody had good reviews of. Sometimes we're all across the board, like, this is bad, don't watch it. But this week I want to say there's a decent amount that you can add to your list. You'll probably like. Number seven. All right, Tuesday reviews day. Review a show or a movie that you've watched and completed. We watched only Murders in the Building season four and we really like the show. It's hard for any show to exist past season two and be great. That's why all the British shows only do two seasons and retire. Season one and two, really good. Season three, good. Season four, pretty good. It's pretty good. But I mean, how many times can you do the same thing over and over again? I'll give it three and a half out of five. Rifles. We finished it. It's still good. But anything after like season Two or three. It's just going to be so hard. Unless you're bringing a bunch of cool. A lot of cameos in this, a lot of really famous people, but I'm going to give it three and a half out of five. Rifles. Amy. Christmas on the ranch. I saw this. Yeah, what is it? Okay. It is a Christmas movie. You know, sort of like the Hallmark vibes, but it's Hulu's version. They put it out this year. It came out early November, and I finally watched it, and I got to say, it is so good. I give it five cowboys out of five. Five. Five cowboys out of five. It's not that good, but it's so good. It's so good. And, guys, did you think it's the perfect movie? Amy, it's not the perfect movie, but it was written for me because it's a radio girl, and she goes out in the country and gets stranded on a ranch, and then she ends up with a cowboy. Like, this is. It's my dream. But we're talking about the movie, not your fantasy. Well, I mean, if a movie. If I'm watching my fantasy on screen. Five out of five. Okay, five out of five. And you saw it, though, Eddie, I did see it. You want to give that a review? I mean, yeah, I'll give it one out of five. Horses. You're Grinch. Oh, Lunchbox. I saw Woman of the Hour. It's on Netflix, and it's about a serial killer in California back in the day. And he goes on the Dating Game. Oh, oh, is that Anna Kendrick? She dragged. Is it good? It is so good. Oh, we've been thinking about watching that. It is intense, creepy. You're like, clinch the whole time. I give it four and a half long hairs out of five. I watch. And I haven't seen the show, but I watch, like, the pictures in video next to the real people. Have you seen that? No. They show it at the end of the movie what they really look like. Because I love that part of a movie when it's over and they show the real. I don't think they did. And I. And I'm so weird. I don't even Google. I just assume that's what they look like. They look pretty like the real people. So good. That's awesome. Okay, we're for sure going to watch it. Morgan. I watched season one and season two of the Diplomat. I binged all of it. Must have been good then. It was really good. Like, what's that on? It's on Netflix and she's Just the main character. You guys said her name. Keri Russell. Yes. She's so good in that role. I give it four out of five dresses. Both of them. Okay. The diplomat. We may have to watch that. Eddie, you have one other than the ranch one? No, no, I do. I have a show called Disclaimer, and it's on Apple plus with Cate Blanchett. Whoa. Are you done with it? Yeah, we're almost done with it. It's crazy. Is it finished? It's done, done, done. Dude, it's crazy. I would. Go ahead. You do. No, I'm not really talking about it. Other than there is death sex. There's a lot of scandals, a lot of sex in it. And even to the point where I'm like, I'm watching too much. What's it called? So the story. And we're not done with it, but the whole story is her life. She lives her life, and all of a sudden. Careful, careful. No, I'm looking at the plot synopsis here. It's hard to describe. No, it's not. It's literally, if you're here, she gets a book, and the book is all about her life, and she's like, where did this come from? It's all about her life and everything she's been through. And she's been through a bunch of crap. And then. What's it called again? Disclaimer. We have, like, one or two left. Yeah. It gets crazy, doesn't it? It gets really weird. I don't like saying it gets. Because then people expect twists. Okay. Yeah. You don't do that. What did I do? Less is more. Less. It doesn't take it from her. She's learned the hard way. I've learned. Like, sometimes y'all are talking about stuff and I have things to say, and I just sit here. Yeah. Disclaimer. I say nothing. We'll put all these up@bobbybones.com disclaimer. Hey, Mike D. Do you have anything you want to review? Yeah. Per your recommendation, I checked out the Ballad of Buster Scruggs on Netflix, and this is like six stories. Yeah, I think it's more than that. Yeah. Maybe. I don't remember, but yeah. I love the fact that it's all split up. They're all self contained. I loved it. I give it four out of five. It's good, huh? Yeah. The Coen brothers. The only reason we watched it, Fargo, because Caitlin was like, let's watch Coen brothers. And I'm thinking, who are the funny brothers? Fairly brothers. That's what I was thinking. I was like, let's laugh. Different Guys is not the same. This is a Dumb and Dumber Guys. Got it. It's not the same, but it is. The Ballad of Buster Scruggs on Netflix and you get four out of five. Yeah, I think this is what that Kevin Costner Horizon movie was trying to do. Like a story that has no overarching plot. But this is how you do it. It was really good. Okay, everybody Good? Yeah. Tuesday reviews day. If you remembered that, great. If not, go over to bobbybones.com and check them out. Let's go.

He also shared a story on the show talking about how he pulled money out of his 401k to date his now wife and I. Just before we get into this segment. This is why, if he wanted to, he would applies all the time. Number six, because. No. Scuba Steve spent his 401k to date his wife. No. Okay, so this all comes from a story I was reading, but it says that if you spend too much taking somebody on a date, you could be dooming the date because too many presents too early will leave her thinking that you're hoping to either A, buy her or B, you can't continue up what she feels is the norm. Right. So you're out. I wouldn't even say it's a love bomb. It's. It's a bit different than that because love bombs. A bit manipulative. Yeah. But this is just like you're setting the bar too high. Sure. You just can't continue on. So a lot of women will actually react in the opposite way. Stick to gifts that can be enjoyed together or things that are more activity based. So that was the story, but then Scuba was telling me. So you did the opposite of this. Well, a little bit of Both. So I took out 5k from my 401k. And when you do that, you have to borrow it. So they give you the money, you pay a bunch of penalties on it. But I had no money whatsoever to date my wife. So for me I looked at it as a way to bring me to an even playing field to do stuff with her, like to be able to take her on intimate dates, to walk around the city and stop and get ice cream. I couldn't even afford things like that. So I needed some sort of money to get around and date this beautiful woman. Walk around the city and get ice cream. You didn't have the money to walk and eat ice cream? Well, I could walk around but I couldn't afford the ice cream. So I needed some sort of money to be able to do these little things. Wow, that's tough. So question, where did you live? I lived. So I just got out of divorce and so I got to keep the apartment for my ex wife. And so all my money went to pay for my apartment, my cell phone bill and transportation. That was it. I lived very, very frugal. And you did not want your wife to know this? I did not. Because she thought I made decent money because I worked on radio. I was in a large market, San Francisco. She thought I had, you know, a well paying job, which I did. But I just had a lot of overhead, my rent was so high. And divorce. What's up, Amy? Divorce can set you back a little bit. Gotcha, gotcha. Just want to make sure she got her boys got in there. Yeah, yeah. So scuba, you take five grand out of your 401k, did you pay it back? No, because it's my money, so it's gone. I just have to pay the penalties on it. And eventually I accrue that money back over time by putting money into the 401k. And what kind of stuff did you take her to do and did you spend most of it on her or did you also buy like clothes on a PlayStation? Well, I spent all of it on her and then I spent clothing to look good for her. So everything was incensed to lure in this amazing woman to then fix my life, to then trick her. You tricking her? I didn't really trick her because I was still who I was as a person. Everything we talked about was true and who I was, just not my financial situation. Did you feel like you were misleading her at all? A little bit. But ice cream not too scoops. Not two scoops. Not two scoops. I don't think she was confused, but, I mean, I'm sure you took her to, like, concerts and stuff and, like, trips. Yeah, concerts. And went to places. We went to all kinds of things. I took her shopping and bought her some stuff. I bought her some perfume and all and all that. But then I had to stretch it out over six months, so I had to also be, you know, I had to watch my spending and then eventually got to a point where I was out of money. And she's like, hey, you coming out to see me in East Bay? And I'm like, I don't have any money to pay for the ticket on the subway to go see you. Can I borrow some money? Oh, you had to borrow money. She had a venmo me or whatever it was zell me 20 bucks to go see her. And that's when we had the real conversation of, like, here's what's really going on. Was that a drastic turn from you wearing nice clothes, taking her on trips to I need money to take the train to see you? I think at that. At that point, we had. We'd really fallen in love, and as far as who we are as people and what we're into and all the things we stood for in life. And then I just had to be very honest with her and look like, here's the deal. This is what I did, and here's where I'm at financially. You know, take it or leave it. And then she found out my credit score. But she worked in. She worked in banking and financing. How was the credit score? What would you say that was? Oh, it was like, in the high threes. It was really bad. Oh, my God. Really? She's always fallen in love with them. That's too late. I think I'd fall out. I think I'd be right out of love. Because you were misleading her. Yeah, but she could be the Ying to Z yang. Yeah, that's great. But he was misleading her the whole time. Yes. And then it also wasn't my fault, though, just financially. I never had a great person to kind of guide me along in life of how to do things with certain things and where to put my money and how to spend it and save it. And so I was just really ignorant growing up. And she had so much knowledge in the financial world that she was able to, you know, fix me and correct me and bring my credit score up and tell me how to pay off debt and all those kinds of things. I understand all of that, but I'm saying you still misled her. At the beginning. Yeah. But we can skip over that, you know, water under the bridge. It is water under the bridge. So what is your advice, then? So everybody should fake it if they're trying to lure someone in until they get to the point where they like them so much they can't back out? Oh, it depends on what you're faking, I think, because for me, it was just. I didn't have money, and that money doesn't make a person. But you need money to do things in life. And so I wasn't fully lying about who I was. I just couldn't afford the lifestyle at all. So you should only partially lie. Sure. I don't want to say you should lie. It just depends on what it is you're doing. For what I did, it's fine because I'm saying that because I did it. And all he did really was take money out of his savings. It's my money. It was his money. Yeah. It wasn't like he was. But again, he was not acting like he was taking money out of his savings, like he was taking a loan out on his life to fake like he had more money. I think. Look, it worked, right? It worked. I have three kids. We've married for over 10 years now. I mean, life is good. Your strategy worked. Credit scores in the high sevens. Life is great, man. I don't know how. I've got cars that she fixed. She definitely fixed me financially, but also as a person, too. So for me, it was a huge win. Are you, like, murdering people, like, spitting on homeless guys? You walk by like, what was wrong with you? Better. She gave me a different. Different perspective on life and just how, like, I wasn't bad to people, but just made me think about things in a different way that I never thought of before. It seems to me, like, similar to you, Bobby. Maybe he didn't really have anybody that showed him love and he finally got that. Exactly. I didn't take out a bunch of money to fake like I had money. I was like, I'm broke. You like it? Oh, you don't? Okay. I guess I'll be single a while and. But it didn't work out for you that way, though, right? We're single. Yeah. And then I made a bunch of money, you see? But our wives were better for us. What our wives did did make us better. Yeah. All of your wives make y'all better. Why do you think you didn't make your wife better? Why is it always, why does the wife make sure I'm with you? Lunchbox I'm so tired of everybody giving the wife credit. You make the wife better. Don't put this clip on the Internet. Yeah, I didn't think about that. Yeah, it's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two. So a listener spilled the tea on lunchbox because he was trying to get on a music video set. And Lunchbox didn't quite know that. He just knew it was a set of some kind. And the listener had tweeted us videos and pictures of this happening. And then the next day, Lunchbox brought audio to share what happened within the car of these said video and photos. Just hilarious. Everything about this is funny. But my particular favorite is that he was in his minivan with his kids when he was trying to do this number five. Lunchbox tried to crash. Do you think it was a movie shoot? I thought it was a commercial because it had a big old, like, barrels out there and had crown royal. So I thought it was a crown royal commercial. And I was like, well, I mean, I'm perfect for a commercial. So you just thought you'd drive up to it and be like, let me in. Yeah, I just driving down the road, and I saw cones, like, they had blocked off one of the lanes. There was, like, security. There was cameras everywhere. And you thought you could get into that just by driving up to it? That's crazy that your mind would think that would be. That's not what I would think. Yeah. So I was going the opposite direction, so I whipped a ue to get on that side of the road so I could, you know, chat to him. So a listener saw Lunchbox trying to talk through security. Lunchbox's kids were also in, like, the van. They were in the car. And I was like, hey, guys, don't say anything. I had something to Be quiet. Okay, so this is you. What do you have here? I'm driving up, and there's a guy. I don't know. I guess he's secure. Security guard. And I'm like, rolling down the window, See if he needs me in the commercial. All right, go ahead. I'm just gonna talk to this guy real quick. What's up, man? You need me to act in the commercial? No, I think we're good. You sure? I drink crown royal, man. I got it. I mean, I'm like, the perfect dude. I've been in, you know, such things as Friday night lights. I mean, I can act. I appreciate it, but I think we're good. Bat out of hell in Vegas. I was in the play. You got cars behind you, my man. Yeah, but I don't. Wait. If I'm gonna be in the. You don't want me to be in it? You sure? Positive. Don't you think I have a face for the camera, though? Seriously? You have, like, no respect for anybody else. Well, as an actor, I'm just behind you as an actor. Drive. Oh, man. You guys need me to act. You need me to act. All right. Wow. That was it. That made me feel weird in a lot of ways. Totally. And what's even worse is the kids are in the back. Watch. Oh, yeah, I forgot about that when the guy started yelling at him. I forgot about the kids? No, no, the kids. But then also, I feel like there was, like, he got redeemed a little bit when people recognized him. Did the guy know they were yelling at you? I have no idea. I don't think he did. I don't think he had any idea that who I was or what was going on. Those people start yelling, and as we did drive off, my kids go. My kid asked me, dad, why'd you keep repeating it? And I'm like, we asked the same question, right? Are you sure you don't need me? Wait, so then what happened? It wasn't a Crown Royal commercial, I guess, according to those people that hit up Morgan on social media, it was a music video. But, I mean, no one told me that on set, man. That is. So you didn't make it on the set? Oh, yeah. You didn't get to the set. And the second one is, I drove up 10ft, and there was more people, and that's when I asked them, but they just laughed and waiting me on. They didn't even say anything. But, yeah, I thought I was gonna get in. I thought I was almost there. Who's honking at you? I don't. People behind me. But, like, let's say you did get in. What was your plan with your kids? Hey, guys, you want to. You're gonna sit here? They got snacks, catering. You're just gonna sit them somewhere and go be in the. Okay, Okay. I mean, how great would that have been? Like a Hollywood story of, how'd you get your big break, man? I just pulled up to the set and said, you need me? And they said, actually, we do. That'd be cool. You said, I have a face for alcohol. Yeah. Is that what he said? Don't you think I have a face for the camera, though? Seriously, you have, like, no respect for anybody else. Seriously, dude, when he whoops your butt. Oh, probably big dude. Yeah. Pretty big, kind of long hair. Kind of look like a biker. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Rough and tough, you know what I mean? But he wasn't having it. He wasn't a fan of mine.

The Mayo Clinic came out with a study about how many push ups you should be able to do at any given age. And it determines the status of your health in a way. I mean, you know, there's multiple determinations of this, but this is one of them. And so Amy, Lunchbox and Eddie, they all tested it out to see how many they could do. But if you want to watch said push ups, you can go to our YouTube page @Bobby Boneshow because that video is up along with many, many others. Number four. The Mayo Clinic posted the number of push ups people should be able to do and at what age they should be able to do it. Oh no. Okay, what is it? So there's women and men. If you're 25 years old for women, you should be able to do 20 full push ups. Like not cheaters, but full push ups all the way down. All the way up. For men, it's 28. That's at 25 years old. Oh, 25 at 35 years old. 19 for women, 21 for men at 45. And Amy, you're not 45. I'm close. Not. Yeah, I'm gonna be 44. 14. Do you think you can do 14? Yeah, I can do 20. Oh, I believe. She's young. I believe. But on your knees or on your toes? No, on my toes. But I guess I would need to show you what my push up looks like and then you can tell me if it's accurate. I give it a rip. Okay, you're in. You're in. Jeans. So you're fine, right? Yeah. Okay. Okay. Amy's on the stage in her socks. Okay, go ahead. One. Yeah, that is a good pushup. It's a really good pushup. You don't have to do them all right now if you don't want. If you're not loose. 4. Go all the way down, though. Make sure your chest touches. Five. Yeah, that's a push up. Six. Good job. How many she needs to do seven. 14 for 45. Eight. You got it. Nine. Let's go, Amy. Five more. You got it. Focus in there. Ten. Dial in four to go. Eleven. Be sure to touch. Be sure to touch. Three more. Get up, get up. Come on, Amy. Two more touch. Get up. You're young, Amy. Get up. Get up, get up, get up, get up. Come on. Nice job. One more. Touch your chest, young lady. Touch your chest. Get up. Get out. Yeah, she got it. She got it. She trembled, but she got it. You know what it was? The smelling. Oh, she's going. Oh, she's going. Oh, she's going. One more. And she got one more. You're about to. Amy about to die. She's gonna. I'm worried her arms are gonna give. She can hit her face on the ground. 15. Well, that's not a real push up, but to me, if I could say to me, you did a legitimate 15 push ups. That was great. Without any warm up. She wanted to do the 20 to show us. Well, because. But I guess if I wasn't going. Going all the way down to my chest, but I still feel like that's a still pretty okay push up. I could do 20. To be fair, you don't have to go down as far as, like, I do because you actually have a chest. Yeah, I know. When I was down there, I was like, dang, I wish my boobs were bigger. I was like, I wish I had bigger boobs. My boobs were bigger. For guys, 45 is 16. You guys want to give it a rep? Yeah. 45. Yeah. Let's get lunchbox, though. I'll probably do about three. Let me try. Let's see how many you really can do. No, really? Okay. I probably. Come on. You're a man. Come on. You're a man's man. Yeah, but he is a man's man. My thing, man. They're not. What. What is your thing? That's true. He is a good runner. You'd be surprised how. Let me see one to make sure your form's good. Okay, but go all the way down. Rest. No, your chest Chest, not head. You rest your arms. Hold on. Rest your arms. Just rest your arms. Just take a break for a second. Take a break. Take a break. Get up. Take a break. Why is your hood on? Oh, always Eminem. I didn't think about that. So make sure your head is up and your chest hits well, you don't have to like that, but yes, if your head's down. What if you're swinging your head down? You're gonna hit your head first. You don't want that. Parallel. Parallel. Okay. You need to do 16 and go. Here we go. Lunchbox is up. Yeah. Butt down. Yep. Go ahead, clinch his butt. Yeah, you're good. Go. One. Good. Touch your chest. Two. That looks good, dude. Yeah, you're doing good for him. Three. Oh, he's got this. Four, five, six. Good job, man. Seven. A little struggle. You got this. Eight, nine. Touch chest. He's huffing. He is. Ten. He's doing way better. He's doing way better than I thought he was. 11. Good, good, good, good. You got this, dude. 12. You need to get four more. You can do this. You got it. You got it. Thirteen. Hit that chest. Come on. You got it. Let's go, let's go. No. Why did you come? Hey, he did 13. He thought you do four or three. So what is that? What does that say about him? I'm stronger. Oh, hold on. I didn't. I didn't think about that. I wasn't comparing YouTube. That's hilarious. It does say that. That's the data. I was. I was, like, proud of him for doing more than he thought. And then Amy slaps him with I'm stronger than he is. Wow. What do you say about that? Hey, if there's. If there's something. That's what she wants to believe. There's something our show is all about. It's exactly what Amy just did. And I love what I have to believe. I. It's fact. Okay. You want to take a run out of it? Yeah, let's go. Okay. We'll jump on the other. I'm gonna rest, then you can do. You have to do 16? Oh, no, I'm four. I'm 45. It says for 55, though, you. I'm not 50. Oh, my bad. My bad. Okay, let's play this. We'll get Eddie. Nice. We'll take some more runs at this. The Mayo clinic says based on your age, this is how many push ups you should be able to do. Eddie's gonna go next. Eddie have to hit 16. 16 for 45. Years old. Yes. And do it all the way. Hey, Abby, how do you. How do you feel like you could do? Not very good at all. I mean, if you don't get 16, I'm not going to believe you. Go work out. Bobby every. Yeah, that's a good point. I'm going to be able to do. Okay, let's see if Eddie gets 16. The Mayo Clinic posted guidelines for how many push ups men and women should be able to do at various ages. And you need me to do the camera. Can you imagine? It's just on his face. It's him recording him, watching you. Okay, Eddie's up. Eddie, you need to get 16 push ups. I'm fairly sure you can do this. Focus. Touch your chest. Yep, here we go. And go. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Yeah, he's got it. 11, 12, 13. You wanna get 20? 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20. Take a break. Good job. It's pretty strong. Pretty good. That's the training, dude. That's pretty good. I guess we're all gonna live forever. Well, Lunchbox made that die a bit early. Yeah, that's all right. But he runs better than we do. Yeah, my heart rate's still pretty low. Compared to after doing what you did, was your heart rate up really high? I didn't. I mean, I would. Cardiovascularly, you're in better shape because after, when I stood up, I was like, my heart was like pounding. I want people to be like, well, Bobby didn't even do it. And I don't feel like I need to do it. But do you guys feel like I need to prove anything? No, we believe you believe. I just want to make sure. Do you want to do it? Do you want to do them one handed to prove us even more wrong? No, I'm happy to do them. If you guys are like, he's full of crap. You probably can't do them, but I feel like I could probably do. No, y'all work. You and Eddie work out together and he just did it. So. Yeah, it's like very. You sure? Yeah. And I wouldn't want you, you know, you got a sweater on, so I don't want you to. That's true. I mean, I take it off. I go shirtless. Oh, whoa, whoa. I go shirtless. And pantalas. Okay. So, yeah, try that at home. If you're up to 55, it's 10 for women, 12 for men. But I feel like you guys did a pretty good job. I'm worn out, but thank you. Here, smell this. Okay. It's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two, sometimes there are stories that we can't share and talk about for safety reasons, and this was one of them. But now Amy could share. It was something that happened during her divorce, and somebody was trying to get information out of her about her divorce before she ever announced it all by way of a fake interview for her high school. Crazy stuff. And she finally shared the story this week. Number three, this is juicy. And this is one of those things that I think maybe Amy and I alluded to way back in the day that we couldn't talk about on the air at the time because it was so sensitive as juicy stuff. I wanted to go on the air with it, and I think Amy did, too. But we were like, it's not safe to do it. So I give the. I give the bear the outline of it. Amy. And you can give me more. Amy was going through a divorce, and somebody was called, because my wife was. But we weren't talking about it. No, we weren't talking publicly. Right. Even the divorce part, we weren't talking about. Really? You were going through it. So you had announced your. Yeah. No, nothing. Yeah. People didn't know details about what's going on in my life. But there was a lot of speculation. And because you were missing shows and you would say stuff like, I hate men. I hate marriages. We were like, what? So. But I knew about is going on from Amy a bit, but from my wife, who was involved with Amy, trying to figure it out. But somebody was posing as a newspaper reporter trying to get a hold of Amy to get information about her divorce. And we're like, this ain't right. So this was so crazy. Like, what facts. Am I forgetting about this? Well, I guess it was just like, how did this person even get my number? Okay, what were they saying to you? That they were doing an article on alumni from where I went to school, high school, and that they needed my marital status. Like, all these details about me. And I'm like, what? Why? What does that have to do with where I am professionally as a former student here? You know, like, they posed as a reporter, and they knew where Amy grew up in Austin, Texas. And they were like, I know you went to school, and we're doing a report on alumni, and we just need to know your marital status. Yikes. Yeah. And it was clearly someone trying to figure out if I was getting a divorce or not. It was a listener. I know it was. And Bobby, Bright idea. I know he had the idea of like, well, of course I'm going to Google who the person is. Because they said he was claiming an organization he worked for. Yeah. And there was a name and everything. And then what? Remind me. I don't think we could find any evidence that he existed. Right. And so you would think if you're a reporter somewhere, that if you Google your name, other articles are going to come up. And he was like, I work for the New York Post. It wasn't New York Post. He's like, for the New York Post. My name is Herman Killebrew. And we were like, okay, well, Amy, let's just see if there's a Herman Killebrew that works in New York. Nope, not. That's somebody trying to get some information from you. Or like, they want to date you or they want to figure out where you live. Yeah. I'm like, you couldn't get my number even. I tried to Google myself to figure, don't. This isn't a challenge, by the way. But I couldn't figure out how this person got my number or who they really were. And then what were they just trying to figure it out for their own entertainment or maybe, like, to put on, you know, Facebook news. Right. To the Bobby B team at the time, they were. There's a lot of speculation online, like, why isn't Amy talking about her divorce? But they went above and beyond to try to find out. Were you also getting, like, weird texts? Yeah, but that was something different. It was. Which that was. Freaked me out more, but I think that's done. Remember, you got the meth to your house? Yeah. That's crazy, too, huh? Yeah. Or a heroin or something. I was heroin. Yeah. Yeah. That's crazy, too. That's crazy. I don't. Yeah, that was so weird. I still don't. And it wasn't sent directly to my house. It was into my UPS box. And so what we concluded, I think, is that they were running some sort of a thing through the UPS store. And somehow I was given the wrong package. Some bizarre or that, like maybe someone that worked there. They were like, you know, so in cahoots. Let me speculate all three of these. The person that was claiming. Also, what you should do if you're a person claiming to be from somewhere, pick a name that we're going to search and just going to be there. Not Herman. Right. Or that used to work there. So my speculation is that was a listener trying to figure out so they could put it on social media that they found out. I don't know how they got your number that they found. They found out that you were divorced. Yeah. That's a weird question. We're doing a whole. They wanted Amy to do a whole interview with them. And their first question, though, was, what's your marital status? So we can put it in the article. The first question. The first thing, like, the theme of the article, ish, is like, you know, where are they now? Like, professionally? So, like, what does my personal life have to do with that at all, whatsoever? The second thing, the. The weirdo that had your number. Just a weirdo? Yeah, just. He was in love with you. That was unfortunate. I don't know what he. I don't know what that was about, but I don't have that number anymore. Trust me. He was in love with you. But then all the pizzas, we never figured that one out, Right? We don't know. We don't know anything. We don't know who delivered all the pizzas to Amy's house. That made her move houses. How many pizzas were delivered? At least three. Which I know may not sound like that crazy, but it was also along the same time as, like, a letter was put in my mailbox, too, and I had a little fence you had to go through and the mailboxes by my front door, so you had to lift it open, put in there. It wasn't mailed. It was physically dropped into my little box by my front door. That freaked me out at the time. Do you like pizza? No. At the time, I was married and Ben was in Afghanistan a lot. Like, every two months, he would deploy, and I just was like, all right, that's it. We're out of here. I'm moving. My theory on that is it was somebody doing a harmless joke, they thought. And then once Amy moved houses, like, changed her life, they were like, I will never reveal that we did this joke. And then the other one was. What was the fourth one that we mentioned? Because that. Oh, the. The drugs. Yeah, the drugs. Yeah, that. That you really were using heroin. Yeah. I honestly thought. And this was the time of the, like. I don't know. There's all kinds of crazy things that go through your mind when you're getting a divorce because you're like, do we even know each other? Like, I thought, oh, my gosh. Drug deal. That makes sense. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, yeah. Like, high quality drugs for a lot of money. Right. It doesn't mean you have to use drugs. He is 100% not. But it's like when you're going through something like that and you're just, you know, you have all kinds of, like, crazy thoughts and. Doesn't mean you use them. No, he's a dealer. I thought he was, like, involved in some crazy thing, and of course, he was not. My imagination got the best of me. I just. Now I felt like we could talk about when the. What I think was the listener trying to break news on social media was getting a hold of you. We didn't talk about it at the time, but acting like a newspaper reporter. Yeah. And. Yeah. Note to self. First question about your career. Are you married still? What the heck? People are dirty. Yeah. Everybody, let's be cool. Is that. Can we just all agree on that? Gen. Yes. Please, everybody, just be cool. And, like, sometimes on Facebook, my friends will send me screenshots of things, and they're like, well, I'm friends with her cousin's sister's friend, and this is what happened and why. Never true. Yeah. Never true about me. That's crazy. Never. I got so many cousins out there that I got one. I don't even have a tree with branches. Like, my cousins are double cousins. My mom and her mom married my biological dad and his brother. So people are like, I'm so and so Bobby's cousin. No, you're not. We're all, like, ancestral. So you're not related to me at all. All right. Anyway, Amy, I'm glad that's over. Yeah, me too. Let's go. It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two. The following ad is sponsored by Pets Best Insurance Services.

If you're a big sports fan, you've probably heard of these before. They're called smelling salts and athletes use them. Sometimes they're used when an athlete passes out on the field to help them regain consciousness. And they are crazy. People talk about them online so Bobby Brought some, bought them into the studio, and everybody had to take a whip gif, including myself, who. My smell has come in and out over the last three years, because when I got Covid, I want to say it was in 2020 or 2021. I lost my taste and smell completely. My taste came back 95%. Some random things will taste like soap, but besides that, I can taste most things, but my smell didn't. I did try something with a massage therapist. She did cupping and fascia on my face, and it did help. I got a deep sense of my smell back for a while, and now it's like my smell is gone again. So I don't know if it leaves again, if I ever get a cold or any other virus comes in through my body and wipes it out again. I'm not really sure how it all works. So sometimes you'll hear me say, I have 80, sometimes I have a hundred, sometimes I have none. And it's wild. But I did also try these smelling salts to see if it would do anything for my nose because. Because everybody else had a crazy reaction to it. Number two, they have these smelling salts. Like, if a player gets knocked out sideline, they rip open the little packets like the trainer. Be like, smell this. You bring them back. So I have some here. Never actually used it. There's like, the devil on the front of this one. Oh, that's not good. No, that sort of freaked me out. You never want to do something with the devil in the front of it. I agree with that. So these are smelling salts. I just want to see what it will do. It says, do not remove cotton ball. Already removed the cotton ball. Oh, boy. Too late. Okay, Amy, do you want to take. You want to take a run? Come on, Amy, how many smells are. Is there, like, unlimited smells? It didn't say. Because if I give Amy the smell, it says here. Okay, I just googled. Smelling salts are used to arouse. Oh, I'm in consciousness. Oh, okay. I'm already there, though. That's better. Yeah. Okay, give your mic. I'm not gonna take the lid off. Are you ready, Amy? Give it a big. I'm gonna give you this, and if you start to get too aroused, back away. And then I sniff. No, you don't sniff. You inhale with your nose, like, smelling it. It may not work. We don't know. Come on, baby. It's got the devil on it. So something's gonna happen. That's not good. Oh, oh, she's gonna throw up. Oh, she's gonna Throw up. Oh, she's gonna throw up. Oh, she took off running. She's. Now she's yelling, I'm fine. Running around the room. I'm fine. I'm fine. Not okay. Amy, what do you feel? She just said that it's not okay. Grab the microphone because you threw it down. I had a flashback of, like, when I took the shot, the pepper shot. And so for a moment, my body went back to, like, oh, my God, we're gonna have to go to the hospital, dude. She was running around the studio. Not like a. Like a pony, like a stick. Yeah. What do you think? I. I think that if I were to be unconscious, that would arouse my consciousness, because I don't know. Like, I'm kind of curious to see, like, how I'm gonna work the rest of the day, because I feel okay. I feel very. Eddie, don't. Hey. But I'm gonna take my headphones off just in case I do the horse thing. Oh. What if that's what makes us all do ride a horse? Oh, wow. Okay, so let off. And an inhale. Not a sniffy sniff, an inhale. Big one. Here we go. Here we go. I just got knocked out. What is going on? Eddie has left his desk. He's now bending over. He's spitting everywhere. Oh, my goodness. He had snot coming out of his nose. Was that snot or was that. My eyes are watering. That'll wake you up. Yes. Oh, my goodness. Like, I feel like we probably sniffed even. It's harder than we would have normally, because the last time. Oh, you let it rip. And that's how you should have done. I'm proud of you. Oh, my gosh, dudes. It's like when, you know, you jump in a swimming pool and you don't hold your nose. Imagine all that water going in your nose, except just burning everything. Except. Except what? It's air. It's just. You do it. Just do it, Bobby. You have to do it. You have to do it. It's still strong. Whoa. Be ready. Be ready to move. Your body's gonna want to move. No, no, no, no. Smell it, dude. Get in there. Oh, my God. It smells like we can't do the show anymore. It makes me see my tongue all the way out. Oh. Oh. Give it to Lunchbox. It feels like if you were to pour, like, what's the old dishwashing detergent? Cascade. Like, cascade deep into my nose. Yeah, dude. And I get out my tongue. Oh, my God, bro, we're at a party. Like, I'm not Ready to party, dude, if this is what that smells. No, no, no, no, no. Give it a minute. You feel real. I feel good. No, no, no, no. Like, if I. You glad you didn't snort it. If I lightly smell that. What's it. Oh, God. Even lightly. Give it to lunchbox. Okay. Here. Handed it. Even lightly smelling it. Oh, man. I trust you guys. No, no, no, Lunchbox. You got knocked out. You don't have to do it if you don't want to. We can't force anybody to do it. That's true. Oh, like, I want to put. I'm going to rip my tongue out of my head right now. Dude, my eyes are still watering. Here we go. Big whiff. Oh, don't throw it down. Careful, careful, careful. Oh, none of us threw it. He throws. Throws an open bottle. You act like it was a snake or something, man. I'm crying. Yeah. No, no, no. It shocks you, but did that get everywhere? No, man. Oh, it's on my computer. Or the snake. Why did he throw an open bottle, bro? It ain't. I got. We all just did it. Yeah, we burned instantly. It burns, dude. Yeah, but we don't yell it to me. And didn't throw an open bottle. He acts like I'm a bad kid or something, man. I'm sorry. I was. I was like, oh, hey, you guys want to go somewhere? Yeah. What do you want to do? Whatever you guys want. I'll run through a wall. Man. That. That is. Wow. Who. Who. How'd they come up with that? Right? Like, who was the first person that had to do that? What is. It's. It's. It's a release of ammonia. That's why it smells like. Like dishwash, because that's what it felt like. I had deter. Like cascade going in my nose, and. And here's the science of what's happening. It irritates the membranes of the nose and the. And triggers, like, a inhalation reflex. You have no. No option but to go. That's why it wakes up. Or just throw it. But. But if you're pastel, you can't throw it on the. Why did you even throw it like it was damaging. Didn't throw it. I don't know why I started. Sorry. Galloping. I don't know. That was great. Like, I'm not okay. I'm not okay. I'm not okay because that was. That was my trauma. My little t. Trauma from the shot. Let's go, baby. Okay, we gotta go. Break. We gotta play a song. We gotta play a Song. We gotta come back. We're out of control. Well, you got. Yeah. Grab that bottle. Morgan did not smell the smelling salts. Do you wanna take a whiff? Cause you don't have all your smell. Yeah, I'm gonna be shocked if I can smell. So how many years ago did you get, Covid? It's been 20, 21 and forever. She had no smell. Now, percentage wise, what do you think you have? I'm probably operating 70% no smell. So 30% smell. Yeah. This stuff just to smell it and make sure it was still good. I didn't go in it. Like, it lit my skull up. It's still got power in it. Yeah, that's what I think. I don't know exactly what I'm smelling, but my other senses are having a reaction. So it's like. I think that there's. Yeah. What I would recommend is, well, you can't smell anyway, so go there behind him. Don't do this, though, because we did that and we saw things from the past. Like, I saw what a stegosaurus really looked like. Really? Yeah, it was really crazy. No, I don't eat it. You just smell it anyway. I turned into a horse. Just take a normal. Okay. Don't like, slightly breathe it until it gets up to your nose and just give a little. Give a sniff harder than that. No, you always sniff it. Get it up to your nose. No, she's. Put it up. Put up closer. If you don't smell it. Put it up closer. Nothing. So it's effective. You don't smell the. I can't smell it. It feels like tingly. Wow. Her nose is so messed up. Okay, so that doesn't work for you. That is crazy. It's crazy that Covid messed her up that much. Bizarre, those nerves. Just like I can feel. I can feel something happening. Sure. In my system. And my eyes are watery. Like the physical effects of whatever that does is still there. But the sense part. Yeah, I can't smell what that is. So it's still. Wake her up. It didn't burn your nose? No, it's like all tingling. She didn't smell it, though. Like, I did it just to make sure it worked a minute ago accidentally. And I felt that very tip top of my skull light up. Like I had a light bulb on my head. Right. I feel like we should send this clip to the CDC or something. Because this is a breakthrough. That she still can't smell. Like, she can't smell like this. I know. It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two. Brooks and Dunn stopped by the studio this week. They have Reboot two out now. And I loved the first reboot. It was so, so good. The Casey Musgraves Neon moon version was, oh, my gosh, top tier, one of my favorites. But reboot 2, I've already been listening to it on repeat, and I think you guys are gonna love this one. Not only that, these guys are so iconic. I love them so much. I've listened to them since I was a kid. They are my dad's very favorite. I'm pretty sure my Maria played in the car every single time we got in. So please enjoy Brooks and Dunn in the Bobby Bones show studios. And after the interview is over, go check out their new album because I think you'll really like it for a good vibe this weekend. Number one on the Bobby Bones Show Now Brooks and Dunn clap our hands for our friends who are back. Yes. They're doing Reboot two. How about that? Look at you guys just squeezing it out for more money. We like that. Greed is a powerful look at you guys. This is about the love of music. It is the creative process. I enjoy. I loved one because the artists got to kind of do their own thing with songs that I have loved my whole life. And I think for you guys to allow them to do that, like, that's empowering. Like Laney's play something country. Similar, but not exactly the same. Do you guys coach these artists on what to do, or do you let them just come in and do their own version of your songs? Both. Yeah. Little bit of both. Laney came in with the idea, and Dan Huff was doing the production on that, and we were right in the middle of it, too. So they added a little ZZ Top, you know, pulse to it, and away we went. Some of the guys walked in with their own bands. Marcus King came in, did Rock My World, and just completely, you know, just changed the whole vibe, which is awesome. What if somebody comes in, though, kicks in? It's not good. Good. What if you're like, I don't know. I like the polka version. Like, you haven't had that, right? I haven't had that experience, honestly. And that is. This is. Honestly. It was such an open door. And this time, coming out of the first one where some departure. Casey, probably the one. Casey Musgraves, the biggest departure. Love that version, too. Yeah, really cool. She crushed it. And that was kind of a spark going. You know what? There's nothing wrong with really seeing this stuff completely off the road. So it was more of an open door, I think, for these acts in terms of not just welcoming them, but not necessarily just to come hang with Dan Huff and do our, you know, use our band, but do it how you want to this time. It's more your producer, your band, our band. With Dan still in the. In the mix here, Joey Moy, obviously with Morgan and Hardy and some of those guys, and whatever you want to do, just Ronnie and I'll be there. We're going to do this together. But if you got an idea, if you can, a lot of these, especially Marcus and guys that came in with their own bands, they'd rehearse these songs. They. They had their version coming in and they took it seriously, and they took it real seriously. And even if it's completely, you know, bizarre compared to what originally was done, but you know, then if we had any ideas at that point, because, you know, Ronnie's heard this story, but we were there together. But Marcus, I mean, he's just killing this thing, but at the same time, he's such a guitar slinger. Both of us love jams. And I just had to go in the. I said, dan, just give me a second. I just went in his booth and said, dude, you got an issue with this? Turning 16 bars of that solo into 32. He's like, get out of this friggin booth. And then he goes off on his manic. He goes, this is not some Nashville BS going on here. He goes, we are a freaking South Carolina badass band. And I mean, they just fired it up and he slung the hell out of us. So cool. So kind of reverted to our, like, our college days. Yeah, we were sitting to his college cell phone just then. Yeah, yeah, right? Yeah, yeah. It was just free, right? You just were able to be free with these guys. That's it. Yeah, yeah. I love you guys. And I have Brooks and Dunn trivia for you guys. So I want to see how many you can get. You should get them all. Right, Right. It's Brooks and Dunn trivia. Don't pressure on them. Okay, question number one. What's my favorite Brooks and Dunn song? See? Exactly, man. Oh, it's a good guess, but incorrect. Ronnie, what's my favorite Brooks and Dunn song? I've switched it up on you. What's my favorite? Ain't no Way to Go. Ain't no, no, Sorry. It's Neon Moon. So so far, they get no more promotion. They have to get some of these. Right. To get any more prominent motion. Exactly. I know, exactly. Talking about middle of the road. I feel that. Okay. What Brooks and Dun song is my favorite song to sing in the shower. That's a weird vision. Not. Not correct. We're not going to promote the new record at all if they miss all these. Go ahead. Brand new, man. It's where I found Jesus. Wow. Come on. I can give Red Dirt Road a go in the shower. You got. Come over tonight. Come up, we'll do it. No. Okay. I think we're busy. Fair enough. Fair enough. Fair enough. Fair enough. Okay, what is my favorite Brooks and Dunn guitar riff? Kick should go first. What do you think? My favorite Brooks. Is that what you're doing? Rock my world. What we're doing Very wrong. Very wrong. Very wrong. Yeah. Ronnie, play something country. No, obviously. It's hard working, man. The beginning of it, obviously. Come on, guys. Which version? The one. Well, I don't know. Let me hit play here. It's one of my songs that I listen to sometimes in the morning when I come in. Oh, yeah, yeah. Rip Mason. Come on. Tell me that's not awesome. That's right. Now you wish you would have answered that, right? Yeah. I don't know if you guys know, but that's good. Got everything. I own. What I like about that, though, I like you guys kind of. I think Bobby just reverted to his high school. Okay, that's a good thing. Okay, I got two more for you. What is my favorite moment with each of you? Cause I have one with each of you. Can you remember it? Kicks will go to you first. What's my favorite moment with you? I didn't know you had a special. I have two, actually, with you that are very personal. But, you know, to you, I'm just another guy. But to me, you're special. Kicks. Wow. You gotta help me, Bobby. I'm anxious. Number one, you will not remember this. That's why I tricked you with the question. Don't you love it when people walk up to you and go, you don't remember me? That's why I tricked you. Why am I senile all of a sudden? I'm gonna. This is how nice of a guy. I want everybody to know that he may be famous Kicks from Brooks and Dunn, but the first time I ever played the Opry, and they put. And I was doing comedy, and they put me in the intro room. You playing. And you came over and you were like, hey, I'm. And I was like, holy crap, that's kicks. And you were so nice to me. And you. You know, I'm sure you did that with 100 different people. And I was like, that is a really cool moment. Number two, you were in Austin at a urinal next to me. That must have been humbling. You were the guy trying to shake my hand. And I'm like, I'm not doing that. Two different moments. But those are my favorite two moments who walked away feeling better about themselves. One at the Opry and two at the urinal. Ronnie, what's our favorite moment together? I got to sing at your wedding. That is correct. That's it. Neon Moon, your favorite song? That's my favorite. Brooks and Dust. Yeah. There you go. That's awesome. See? And with that, they're gonna get promotion again. See how this game works here. Well, you made it special. You guys dropped a moon down behind me and this stuff was great. Reboot 2 is out. Tell me about Jelly Roll and Believe. Like, tell me about Jelly Roll and give me a story about that. He comes in and he's real quiet. And we have a Dan Huff, first of all, the producer, his father, come to find out, was an orchestra arranger. So he's telling us this thing. He's kind of emotional about it and way into making it happen. So we record at the big studio here in town called the Church. Church. And there's 60 piece orchestra. There's a what, 15, 20 piece choir. Wow. And Jelly Row comes in and, you know, does the Jelly Roll hug. He lifts you up just a little, right? And we talked for a few minutes and he goes, guy, guys, I'm real nervous. He said, I think I'm gonna step up on the roof for a minute. Just kind of like deal with my nerve, My nervous issue. Okay. We're tuning strings and doing all the usual studio fodder. And then he came down and he seemed a lot calmer, More calm. So what you're saying is, you know what? He just relaxed. Yeah. Who knows with what, right? Yeah. Who knows what he did up there? You know, he went up there and prayed. I did. He had a little prayer meeting. Of course. Of course. It's, you know, he. Yeah, yeah. Probably breath work. I think he was so moved by what went on. Was it powerful to watch that recording? Because again, it's just awesome to see, like when a choir comes in ever. It like takes the wind out of you. But it's such a great song. And then having jail, like, what was that experience like recording it? Did it move you guys at all? Yeah, that song, you know, it has an innate cry button, we call it. So, yeah, when it was. When it was going down it. It gets that way. So Eddie and his mom came out to watch you guys play. I appreciate that, Ronnie. I know I text you way early in the morning. How about it? I'll text you way early now, so thank you. Yeah. And Eddie said you guys did an awesome show, which I'm. So what was that? Because that's a small show. I mean, why would you guys play like a small. A small, like, bar, club, show pop up thing, I guess hijack their digital online following. You know, that's. That's promo these days for the new record for Reboot 2. Is that fun for you guys to do those small shows? Occasionally? There was a blowout. Real intimate. Remind you of the old days? Yeah. Did you guys ever have very brief. A very brief old day? Because I. I have said, you know, we. We screwed up and had, what, five hits off our first record. So we had already booked a ton of clubs. We were going to get our band in shape. You know, we didn't want to. If we did have major success, we wanted to have our act together. We'd both been around the block long enough to know better than that. But that was, I think Ronnie would say as well, that the funnest. And the memories that really stick with you because so many years of turning the corner on clubs when there's like five cars in the parking lot and, you know, three of them are some dude and one of them some girl that they're all trying to get happy with and nobody's there for you. And it was just really fun that, you know, you have to park your bus way up the road and walk to the club, you know, because it was. That was really fun. And it's. That was a great night, too. It was a really, you know, young, fun, giveaway kind of audience. And from top to bottom, the other night, I mean, it never stopped. It was. It was really fun. Do you guys change up the set list at all, or is it one you go, and this is the order we're doing it. It was funny because we had planned to do like 40 minutes or something. We thought it was just like an hour set. Yeah, hour set, Clarence. Probably right after you, you know, at 3 o'clock in the morning. I didn't text you at 3 o'clock in the Morning. It was like 8 to be fair. But go ahead. Whatever. Yeah, yeah. Our manager calls, he goes, you got to add three more songs. So we did that. Just kind of went from there. Because you didn't want to burden people with long, long show. It's you know, we try to be respectful, you know. No, you don't. I'm sorry. I'm getting caught up with my own. It was. Turned out it was a full set, which we hadn't played in quite a while, and we didn't rehearse. So it was kind of fun to band everybody sort of half paying attention. Sometimes when you do a bunch of shows in a row, you're, you know, you just start kind of not dialing it in, but you do get comfortable with it. Next thing you know, it's like, what verse did I just play? I drive to work like that sometimes. I'm just. I do it so many times. I'm like, how do I even get here? Yeah. Yeah. And I didn't know if I was going to be able to sing a full show anyway because we haven't worked out and worked up to it. You know, usually we go through rehearsals and you kind of get that little muzzle working. You guys are going back out doing more shows, right? Like, whole. I mean, it's. Is it weird and awesome to see, like, kids? The audiences have to be getting younger, too, which is weird because usually the audience just get older. You guys are able to see them get younger again, Right? That's a crazy phenomenon. Well, Kicks does a thing in the middle of the shows, and he'll go, like, how many of you raise your hands if it's your first time here? And three quarters of that audience is like, they're younger. Like, you say younger, younger kids, welcome to the party. And that makes. All of a sudden, it makes it real fresh for us. It's like, you know, you hadn't seen our old, tired BS before. This is cool. Let's start over. When you guys were just starting out, who grabbed you guys as an opener that you thought was really cool? Like, you got to go open for who I think was the one that took. Really? Yeah. But there were. There were five, I think four or five, like, major acts that really were only were touring back then. It's probably the same now in terms of just straight headliners, but straight Reba, Alabama, Randy Travis, and I don't. I don't know the other other one, but. And so to get picked up by one of those was a big coup. You know, everybody's vying for that position. So Reba did it. So Morgan Wallen did a song with you guys? He did your favorite song? He did my favorite song. Yeah. Give me a story about this one before I play. I don't care what the story is. Give me something about Morgan Wallen experience. Well, we did one of the walk ons with him at Kansas City. Yeah. He played two nights in each stadium packs the stadium, of course. And we do the walk on. They come up and they say, okay, here's the deal. We all meet in the dressing room. He's going to walk real fast. That's all we get. Walk fast. So if you go online now and you watch everybody doing the walking, it's like, you know, they're like patting him on the back or, you know, rubbing his head. I don't know. That was the trade off for doing the record. Mm. Did you feel like you kept up? Like, that's a good point. Like speedway. Was it too fast? Yes. No. Was it too fast? Was it too fast? It's weird. Like, I know where you're headed. We get to the end of the thing, it's like there's no, like, directions or anybody telling you what to do. It's like you stop as he walks on stage. You know, everybody's like, pumped up, jacked up, and the crowd screaming. And it's. All of a sudden, it's like he walks on stage and you're standing there going, now what? I mean, doing a walk on with Morgan right now is like doing a show as far as. It's like doing the Taylor show back in the day when Taylor would get someone to come every show and be that person with her, like, doing the walk. Because I can think of, like, Tom Brady. I can think of you guys. I can think of, like, five or six people that have done that. Walk out into the Peyton Manning in full football uniform. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's awesome. It's reboot 2 is out now. Go stream it. We're going to play the Morgan Wallen version with you guys. And again, they're back on the road starting in March of next year. March 13th in Lubbock. All of our Texas listeners. Lubbock, Austin, corpus all the way. You guys are playing massive places. It's so cool to see that people still, like, love it, because I still love it. And when people love what I love, I don't feel like a loser. So you guys have. We do, too. Knock on wood. Yeah. Remember, we peed together. You'll never be a loser to me. I didn't even look over there. I did. And that's where we'll end this. I did. I feel a little. I feel a little weird. I know. It's creepy. Don't stop. Brooks and Dunn. Thank you, guys. David Lee Murphy's doing your shows with you guys. He's opening. Yep. That's super cool. David gets up there and sings. Everything he sings is a big hit. Yeah. Like songs. Whether he's done it. Yeah. Yeah. But he's written them. Yeah. That's awesome. Brooks and Dunn. Check out Reboot two. It is out now. Love you guys and we'll see you guys soon. There they are, everybody. Brooks and Dunn. Yes.
