Morgan
Best bits of the week with Morgan. It's listener Q and A Time where Morgan and a show member answer almost all your questions.
Mike D
What's up, everybody? Listener Q and a time with Mike D. We are both cozy in our homes with the snowstorm apocalypse at City Nashville. Mike, how you doing?
Unnamed Speaker
I love a snowstorm when I don't have to go out. Like when I don't have to be anywhere. I love staying at home. My favorite part is at night, whenever there's that snow glow where you, like, look outside and it's like orange looking. It just feels so peaceful. That is my favorite part of it.
Mike D
You know, Me too. And I kept up my Christmas tree just so I could truly have a white Christmas.
Unnamed Speaker
There's something comforting about there's snow outside. You have the Christmas tree on. It just feels cozy.
Mike D
Yes. And we have to have at least one of those moments a year, and then I'll be okay taking it down.
Unnamed Speaker
How long are you keeping all your Christmas stuff up? Because we're still full Christmas over here.
Mike D
Same. I don't have a plan date in this moment in time, so it could be up through the end of January. It could be up into February. I'm pretty sure last year I kept it up through the end of February. I just was really enjoying it. So we'll see if I can beat that time. When are you guys taking your sound?
Unnamed Speaker
I think going into this, we were saying this is our last week. I think no storm might be the end of it. So we'll see, though.
Mike D
Okay. You're doing better than I am. Part of me is just also lazy and I don't really want to do the effort to take it down. All right, Starting with a shout out from Kathy in Boston. She said, I just wanted to say I love hearing him on the show. So shout out, Mike.
Unnamed Speaker
Appreciate that. I feel like, I don't know, like, it feels weird to say I love hearing those things, but sometimes just like, oh, yeah, people know I exist.
Mike D
They absolutely know you exist. All right, we're getting into these questions now. This first one's, like, odd, but I obviously want to bring it up, because I don't know how or why she thought this. Maybe because your wife tutors some of the kids on the family. But Katie said. Is Mike's wife still a teacher?
Unnamed Speaker
Never been a teacher. She did do some tutoring. She's very smart. Much smarter than. And I am. She teaches me things. So in that sense, she is a teacher. Oh, she also doesn't tutor anymore. She did that in college and then just loves teaching kids. And I think that's always fun for her. But now with her job, she just can't do it anymore.
Mike D
And what is her job? Just so that the people can know that she's not a teacher.
Unnamed Speaker
I don't know what she'd want me to say now that. But she. Not a teacher.
Mike D
Not a teacher. Okay. Just. Just confirming for everyone out there, I think I'm assuming that's why they think that. Because she did help tutor, like, Amy's kids and Eddie's too, right?
Unnamed Speaker
Yeah. And she's talked about her job in college, which she worked at the University of Texas, so she's always been around education.
Mike D
Got it. Okay. So just some confusion there. Alyssa in Illinois would like to know if you have any concerts, big trips, events planned for 2025.
Unnamed Speaker
You know, going into this year, I said to myself and said to my wife, I'm a little bit over concerts.
Mike D
Wow.
Unnamed Speaker
And I think it was last year, I kind of completed my list of artists that I'd never seen. I've now seen all my big favorite artists. I've seen Blink 182. I've seen Green Day, Post Malone in a stadium setting. I don't know that there's anybody else that I would want to see to pay the amount of money that concerts cost these days. Yeah, I think the only other person would probably be Tyler, the creator, but he just announced that he's doing Bonnaroo, and I don't want to go to Bonnaroo. So there's really no one else that I am dying to see in my lifetime.
Mike D
And I think, why don't you want to go to Bonnaroo? I feel like festivals were your thing, though. Especially, like, you used to do the. The mosh pit festivals.
Unnamed Speaker
But Bonnaroo is like, you have to go in camp and be out far away. Like, if that. If Bonnaroo was, like, in Nashville, I would go 100%, but I'm not about that life of going somewhere and camping out. Like, I would love to go to Coachella, but I don't want to do that whole experience So I think I'm past going to festivals. The only festival I could really ever see myself going to now is maybe Lollapalooza. But that's just because I love Chicago and usually has a really good lineup. But I think for 2025, unless it's a smaller concert, like a smaller band that I like that's playing a club or like a medium sized venue, I think outside of that, I'm not too into going to concerts this year.
Mike D
That's funny. It's funny you say that because I literally. We had done a, a bowling thing the other night and it was really awesome. It was for a charity event, but I looked at Lunchbox and I was like, I don't think I can do all the events this year. I think I'm tired. Like last year I feel like I tried to do everything and go to all the shows and I was like, I, I tired.
Unnamed Speaker
I think for me, like, I feel like I'm a little bit jaded by the concert experience. Just because with our job we have been able to go to a lot of concerts and I'm grateful for that. Like we get free tickets a lot of time to go to these concerts. I guess it's that I want something a little bit more out of the experience. And unless somebody that I'm going to see is going to put on like a real production where there's. Which is obviously an expensive thing to do, Touring is more and more expensive for artists. So I can see why some things are scaled back. But unless I'm going to something that feels like a big art piece and they have a lot of different sets and stages and costume changes and it feels like a big production, I don't think at this point I can justify the price of having to pay for concert tickets and not getting something that I feel is worth my money.
Mike D
Yeah, yeah. I do feel like that's how a lot of people are starting to feel with concerts. So hopefully in 2025, the prices come down at least a little bit.
Unnamed Speaker
That would be ideal for like real fans. That's what's the thing about, like people who love these artists and want to go see them and they can't go see them because tickets get bought up and then they're resold at an incredible amount and you can't even go see your favorite artists, so you're not even feeling filling these stadiums with real fans.
Mike D
It's just, yeah, you know, 2025. Let 2025 be the year that all those ticket masters scammers are gone. With the wind?
Unnamed Speaker
Yeah.
Mike D
What do you do to discipline yourself for running and eating right? This is from Bobby, not Bobby Bones. Bobby. With.
Unnamed Speaker
I. I think with running, I set out every week to kind of have a mileage I want to hit, and I just make a point of my day to do it before I want to power down. So I try to. Whether it be usually like the first thing after work, I'm like, I'm going to go get this running, because if I wait and do it later, I'm not going to do it. And that's the only way I've been able to discipline myself of getting it out of the way as soon as possible. I think that's with anything, with running, going to the gym, anything in my life. The things I don't want to do, I try to do first. Because you do them, you get them out of the way, then it's not such a big deal, and then you're done. You have the rest of the day to do whatever else you want. It's about doing those things you don't want to do when you don't want to do them.
Mike D
Yeah, yeah, you're really good about that. You have. You have really good discipline. And discipline is something that you have to teach yourself for sure. It's not something that comes naturally.
Unnamed Speaker
I think for me, it probably took like a solid three months to kind of build that up in my head, and even like a full year until it really became like, a part of my DNA. So it does take some time because I have shared my story of losing weight. I've lost over £100 and kept it off, I think, for going on eight or nine years now. And it's that kind of discipline you gain knowing that it's not going to happen super quick and not going to happen overnight that really allowed me to do it because I failed a lot of times before it actually stuck. And I don't talk about those times. Most people don't talk about those times. You remember the time that you actually accomplishment accomplish it. But there were a lot of times where I would try to develop these habits and I wasn't disciplined. I was motivated, and I'd get motivated for like two weeks, maybe a month. But after that I'm like, all right, I'll just go back. And I failed this time. So there was a big difference in once I actually got disciplined of, like, put things in place and gave myself these parameters to work in that it ends up sticking. So it is hard to do. But I think it's once you form that habit. It does take a few months, maybe a year, that it'll kind of just get built into you. And then now I just don't even think about it. It's just kind of how I roll.
Mike D
Yeah. Yeah, You're. You're great at that. You're. You should be, like, the motivational speaker for discipline. You've nailed it.
Unnamed Speaker
It's really all just about developing a routine. I think I'm about. I love checking things off a checklist. So it's having that routine and having that checklist of, like, okay, I'm going to do this, I'm going to do that. And as soon as that's checked off, that's just comforting to me because I'm like, okay, I did it. I can move on.
Mike D
Yeah, I do love a checklist too. Isn't it weird how we all, like, love that feeling of, like, oh, mark that off. Ooh, mark that off. Like, the feel good feeling.
Unnamed Speaker
Every day I have a note that I'm like a working note where I just put all the things I want to do that day, and there's just some comfort of doing it and then clearing it off the list and clearing off the note.
Mike D
Mm, absolutely. What is the latest braces update? Jenna?
Unnamed Speaker
I have an appointment in a couple of weeks where I'm gonna basically say I need these things off, because I was supposed to have them off last summer. And my orthodontist and my dentist have been working together to try to fix some things, and there's a lot more going on in my mouth than just straightening my teeth. There is. There's, like, teeth that don't line up a specific way, and I need to get implants in, and they're trying to shift my bite a little bit because I have, like, a weird. Not even just an overbite, but a cross bite, which I didn't really know was a thing.
Mike D
I didn't either. That's news to me.
Unnamed Speaker
So misaligned that we spent the last six months of last year trying to get that fixed so my teeth are straight and I could get them off now and move on to the next part of this, But I kind of allowed them to. I trusted them saying, like, hey, we think we can work on this and get this fixed. But I think I'm at that point now where I think I just want them off. Like, it is what it is. I don't think I'm trying to get perfect teeth. I think I've already felt a lot more confident where they are now. And in My appointment that I have coming on me like, yo, how can we just move on from this now? Like, we tried it. I don't think it's going to get there. I'm just ready to have these things off. I'm turning 34 this year. I don't think I want to turn another age and still have them on.
Mike D
Yeah, yeah. I mean, you have to do whatever makes you feel happy and comfortable versus, you know, what everybody else is trying to get you to do too. So I bet they would. But also, like, if you want to keep doing it, keep doing it if it feels good to you.
Unnamed Speaker
Yeah. Like, I don't mind having them. Like, it's more. So the people who are comment on everything I post saying, when are you getting those off? You've had those forever. Like, I know guys. Like, I am the person wearing these. I'm aware. I'm not unaware that I'm like, oh, I still have them on. I'm aware. And I am the one going to all my appointments and doing all these things and paying for it. I am fully aware that I've had them for a long time. And I think the thing I've just kind of felt in the last few months is like, I'm also just sick of having them on my teeth. And, like, they've tried, they've added more things to them and more things poke me in my mouth.
Mike D
Yeah.
Unnamed Speaker
They affect the way I speak a little bit. So I think I've reached my end point on that. Or even I'm at that point where I don't want to move forward with them anymore as far as, like, trying anything else. So I've reached the point that some people have reached online of being sick of them.
Mike D
Dang online people, man. That. I mean, it is not at all in any way the same, but there was a part of me, like, I'll be lying if I said I didn't get rid of my banks because I was just tired of dealing with people commenting about it. Like, I do understand that it sucks.
Unnamed Speaker
When you post something that has nothing to do with it. And that's all people want to bring attention to. You're like, I just made this really great post and all you care is about what is on my face or what is on my in my mouth.
Mike D
Literally. You're like, there's nothing else going on in your life that is more important than asking that question. But that's why I say, like, I did, I, I, I got rid of mine finally because I was tired of styling them because they were so much effort and work. But like, I did that for me. So just do it for you, though. Don't do it for the freaking people online because you got to do whatever is going to make you happy. They're gonna do it regardless. And unfortunately, even if you get them off, then they're gonna have something else new that they're going to constantly comment on so that listen, I don't know, but they find. They find things. I promise you, they find things. They're crazy over there. All right, we're gonna take a quick break. We'll be right back.

Mike D
What movie are you most looking Forward to in 2025? This is from as before I saw.
Unnamed Speaker
The Superman trailer, it was the new Captain America, but I think after seeing that Superman trailer, I think that is the one I'm looking forward to the most.
Mike D
Don't say that. The new Captain America gets me hyped every time I see it.
Unnamed Speaker
Oh, it looks great. Red Hulk looks great. I think Harrison Ford is going to be amazing in it. I can't wait to see how Anthony Mackie steps up. And now that they're teasing more about the fight between Red Hulk and Captain America, I think that is going to be amazing. I can't wait to see what other characters are introduced because they have to introduce some other people in this movie. I think this is going to be a big piece for Marvel, but when you look at superhero movies right now and where people stand on them, I think what is going to happen with the Superman movie is going to be so much bigger of a statement of super superhero movies for the next one year specifically, but for the next five years, I think that is going to set an entirely different trajectory of creating that divide between Marvel and dc, which Marvel has always been seen as the best. DC has always been seen as the bomb. But I think if that movie comes out and is as successful and changes the tone and really shows you what DC characters are about that is also going to make Marvel have to be better. So I think it's going to be the competition between those two studios that we need. It's like Coke and Pepsi, like, those two are competitors, and it makes sodas better. I think if D.C. can step it up and put out movies that not only fans love, but also make a lot of money, that's going to challenge Marvel to keep making movies that are also still testing that, because they're going to have real competition, especially. Especially if they start putting out movies around the same time and battling against each other. So I have also not been the biggest Superman fan just in my lifetime. Like, he feels a lot more classic to me. The comic itself dates way back before me, and I feel if they can humanize him a little bit more and broaden what people feel about Superman, I think that'll definitely change that perspective.
Mike D
You know what. What made him a little bit more human for me was watching. It's called Small. Smallville, I think so it's Smallville with. What'd you ask me?
Unnamed Speaker
CW show?
Mike D
Yeah, I think it was a CW show or maybe Whoville, but it was. It's about. It's about Superman, but it's. Yeah, it's Smallville. And it's like his entire, like, actual. There was like eight or nine seasons of it, and I binge watched all of them.
Unnamed Speaker
Yeah, that was huge. Back in the day.
Mike D
That was one of the ones that when I was on my kick of re watching things and I'd gotten on all, like, the superhero stuff, and I went down the rabbit hole of all the DC shows, and then somebody's like, oh, you have to watch Smallville. And then I did. I was like, oh, shoot, this is actually really good. So that one. That one did do that. So I will be curious to see if, like, how that movie makes me feel with all of the connections now that I have to dc, because I feel like I've watched everything in the DC world.
Unnamed Speaker
Yeah. And I think now that James Gunn has taken over dc, who. He's great director. He did all the Guardians movies, and he is kind of going to be the one who's going to be kind of controlling everything as far as, like, we need to have some cohesion here. These movies need to make sense. They need to all mesh together. I think with him behind it, I think it has a potential to be a really great movie.
Mike D
What's the other? Is he the one that did Suicide Squad?
Unnamed Speaker
Yeah, the Suicide Squad. Not the bad one, but the better one.
Mike D
So. Sorry. Gosh see, this is also the problem with dc. I'm like, guys, I get it that you've been trying to, like, make them. But, like, the fact that there's multiple versions of the same thing stresses my brain out.
Unnamed Speaker
I think that's what muddies it a lot, is there's different versions of Batman. They've had all these different characters and mostly things that didn't work. And streamlining it for people who aren't that familiar with everything and making it like, oh, this is how we're restarting everything, and this is everything now. It's a tough thing to do because even me, sometimes I'm like, how does this connect again?
Mike D
Yeah, like, what are you guys doing now? Okay. Favorite Post Malone country collaboration.
Unnamed Speaker
For me, it's the Tim McGraw song, first song on the on this country album. Whenever I heard that, I was like, I got to hear this song live. And when I saw him perform it live, he opened up his concert with that in Nashville. I was like, oh, this is perfect. This is exactly how I envisioned it. He has the flames and all the parts. I thought he would have the flames. I love Tim McGraw, too, and I think them two together just feel it, like, has, like, this rock and feel to it. And, man, when that song hit, like, something hit in me where I just got excited. That's my favorite one. I also really like the Paisley one.
Mike D
What is the title of the Tim McGraw one?
Unnamed Speaker
Wrong ones.
Mike D
Okay. And then what's the title of the Brad Paisley one?
Unnamed Speaker
Goes without saying.
Mike D
Okay. I think I've heard them, but I don't know that I've deep dived on them. Okay. So I'm going to have to go back and listen to these. But those. That's interesting. Of, like, the two on there. I don't know that I would have called those out for you.
Unnamed Speaker
Yeah, Like, I don't. I'm not even the biggest Brad Paisley fan. But Post Malone covering that Brad Paisley song was kind of what a lot of people associated with him. First diving into country, even though he'd been covering a bunch of stuff on YouTube before that, but that was the one that kind of blew up, that people were like, oh, look, Post Malone's doing country. And I feel like that relationship has always been there. So it was seeing them come together and actually do something and put it on the album that kind of made that feel like it came full circle. Really good. Catchy song.
Mike D
Okay. All right, I'm gonna have to go look at both of those. Favorite movie theater snack from Kate.
Unnamed Speaker
I love Taking my own coffee.
Mike D
You're killing me here, Mike.
Unnamed Speaker
I love. My favorite experience at a movie theater is my wife doesn't like horror movies. I love going to horror movies, so I love taking in my old own cold brew. Sitting right in the middle of the theater, about two rows up from, like, the middle section. So I'm in that perfect setting, cracking a coffee, which sparks my kind of anxiety because I'm like, all right, I'm caffeine up, and now I'm watching something scary. So it heightens that experience. And you can't get coffee at the movie theater, so I had to bring it myself. That is my perfect setting.
Mike D
Bang. Your movie, Mike D. Is sneaking things in the movie theater.
Unnamed Speaker
Yeah. It's also like, what am I going to eat at the movie theater? Like, they don't. They don't have anything for me.
Mike D
No, that's true. They don't. That's why I was, like, I was curious what this answer would be. Well, to. For. For all the. All of us who do eat the snacks there. It's definitely popcorn with M and Ms. Did you ever have that before you were on your vegan side?
Unnamed Speaker
Oh, yeah. I love throwing anything into popcorn and having it melt.
Mike D
Oh, my gosh, the meltiness. It's. And you have to have the perfect ratio. If you don't and those minimums are cold. It is not the same experience. But M&M's have to be melted. And it is. I could just sit there. I'd eat the whole thing like you. The best part, though, is I am that person in the movie theater that'll be digging, like, you'll hear the popcorn, because I'm digging, trying to get the M and M's at the bottom.
Unnamed Speaker
That's good.
Mike D
Oh, last one here. Any plans? We. We did mention this a little bit on part one. Any plans to write a book, produce a movie about experiences with Bobby one day?
Unnamed Speaker
I would love to write a book about, I guess, my entire experience with the show. And just like my life from moving here, I started journaling my life right around 2016 when I moved here, and I've been doing that consistently now. 2016. How long have I been here? Nine years? Eight years.
Mike D
Wow. Wait every single day or like once a week? What's the situation?
Unnamed Speaker
For a period of my life here, I'd say from 2016 to probably 2018, it was pretty consistently every day, if not other day. And I was also traveling so much at that time that anytime I was on a plane or back of a car, I would Journal. So I literally have this log of just years of my life. So I've always wrote that in thinking that someday I could turn this into a book. Because I read a book probably around that same time where that is what the entire book was. It was like journal entries, and then in between, it was a lot of narrative of this person's life. And I always thought that was a cool format because that's something that when you write it, it's so raw, and it's just like, oh, here's this diary entry. But then you can go back and, like, tell a story around it. I just thought that was an interesting format. And also for me, who has trouble reading long books sometimes, I think it's a good way to go back and forth of, like, here I am reading a traditional book, but then there's a little excerpt here that really kind of gives you a dive into that person's life. So I have years of that, and sometimes I'll go through and read it, and I'm like, wow, this is crazy that I. Stuff that I wouldn't remember. It could just be like a random Tuesday on a day where I was feeling something. At the time, it felt insignificant. But you look back on it, like, oh, that was like a specific moment in my life. So I think. I don't know that it would be entirely just my experience on the show, but it would be chrono, like a chronological of my life during those early stages of moving here for the show. And I think a lot of it probably would be about it because it's surrounded with the travel that I did, like, for touring, going out for Dancing with the Stars, American Idol. That's all in there. So it's obviously going to be embedded in probably more so, like, my and Bobby's relationship, because a lot of that was all what I wrote about and just, like, how that dynamic was.
Mike D
Yeah. Oh, that would be super interesting, Mike. Like, really, that would be, like, a cool book to read. And just the setup and stuff that. The idea that you have. That's awesome.
Unnamed Speaker
Which is wild because of all the stuff I've been thinking about writing. I never thought of starting with that. And now that I talk about it, I'm like, I think that would be the easiest thing for me to start with because my goal this year was to write more creative stuff and what I was better at in the past year of, like, I mentioned how I journal my life in the last year, anytime I'd have any kind of idea for a movie or a script or a Short story. I have this big log of just all these small ideas that are titles and quick little synopsis of anything I hear that I'm like, oh, that could be a thing. I write it down. So my idea was to go this year, pick out some of the best ones, which I've already kind of started doing, and fleshing them out a little bit. But that's totally like fiction and a lot harder to write, which I'm finding that it's hard to build a world. It's hard to write dialogue and to write something that somebody could take and turn into something else. So I think now I kind of have two directions to go in where I can take some of the stuff I already have and is already written?
Mike D
Yeah, no, that's totally true. And doesn't it make you think of, like, Stan Lee, who came up with all the Marvel stuff, and you're just like, how? Where. You know what I mean? This is wild that people have those thoughts. But I think you sit down long enough, I think some of that stuff just starts kind of flowing naturally. So I'm excited for you.
Unnamed Speaker
I think a lot of it is just observing and being in tune with the things around you and hearing things. A lot of the things I write down are things we talk about on the show. Somebody will say a concept or say something, and I think that could be something. And I write it down in the moment while we're doing the show, and I'll come back to it later and think about it more. Sometimes they're jokes, sometimes they're movie ideas. Sometimes they're just things that I think could be a bit later. But I think it's just observing the world around you and taking time to write it down, because that's the hardest thing of. You can have a great idea, but if you don't write it down, you're not going to remember it. So I've just tried to get into the process of. Even if it seems, like, dumb, and even if I go back and look and think, like, why did I even write that down? Just write it down. Because you never know what it could turn into.
Mike D
Yeah, well, listen, 2025 for Mike D. Could be a big year. Japan, writing a book. I mean. I mean, the options are endless.
Unnamed Speaker
I would have 18 hours on a flight. I could definitely get some writing done.
Mike D
You definitely could. Maybe that's why you have to go. So you have to sit in a place and you have to write for 18 hours.
Unnamed Speaker
Good idea.
Mike D
Oh, Mike. Well, thanks for joining me. Thanks for taking time on Our. Our little snow day situation. And. And for being here. Tell the people where they can find you. Hear you all that good stuff.
