In Mississippi, Yazoo Clay keeps secrets.

[Caitlin]

7,000 bodies out there or more.

[Larison Campbell]

A forgotten asylum, cemetery.

[Caitlin]

It was my family's mystery.

[Larison Campbell]

Shame, guilt, propriety. Something keeps it all buried deep until it's not. I'm Larison Campbell, and this is is under Yazu Clay. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Bobby Bones]

Park. That song's called My Friend Parker Gaso.

[Caitlin]

He's going to love that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, right.

[Caitlin]

Did you see that video of him shooting?

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, we're recording.

[Caitlin]

Oh, we are, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, people got to hear my. My head. That was. That was for our nephew.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. Parker Gaso. If, you know, if you couldn't tell.

[Bobby Bones]

I walked down and I was gonna record because I was gonna do a little one man action here, which I'm very appreciative. You came down here and my guitar is here. I didn't know if it was tuned and it was. So our nephew Parker oddly likes to watch my comedy special Bobby show, which he calls Bobby Show. And so he doesn't know what the jokes mean, but he thinks it's funny that I'm on tv. So when I pull my guitar out, I wrote it. I just played a bunch of chords and yelled his name over and over again. And then just as you're walking down.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. Because his favorite part of the special is the raging idiots section.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Who's. You know, whose isn't?

[Caitlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Okay, so, first of all, thank you.

[Caitlin]

I can't hear you in my headphones.

[Bobby Bones]

What?

[Caitlin]

I can't hear you in my headphones. I can only hear you.

[Bobby Bones]

Really?

[Caitlin]

In the room. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Huh. I don't know how to work this thing. You're just gonna have to hear me in the room, I think.

[Caitlin]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

You can't hear me at all?

[Caitlin]

No, but I can hear myself, and that's the part I care about.

[Bobby Bones]

How about now? Can you hear me?

[Caitlin]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Okay. So I made a list of things because I was just gonna talk a bit about vacation. I didn't really want to talk about it a bunch on the show.

[Caitlin]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Because I'm kind of embarrassed. So I didn't talk about it a lot, and so I was gonna talk first. I got detained by French authorities. I have notes, but see, you're gonna ruin the stories.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. Cause that's a lie.

[Bobby Bones]

It's not a lie.

[Caitlin]

It's an absolute lie.

[Bobby Bones]

It is not a lie. I was detained by French authorities. You weren't. Okay, I'll give my version.

[Caitlin]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

We go on a trip, and on this trip, we fly from Nashville to London. There's a nonstop. It's pretty nice. That's pretty legit, isn't it?

[Caitlin]

It's so nice. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

We're in lo. In the airport for, like, three hours. And from London, we fly to Paris. As I'm getting off the plane in Paris, everybody's walking through, and two cops stop. Physically put their hands on me and stop me. True or false? All I want is true or false. Do they put their hands on me and stop me?

[Caitlin]

False.

[Bobby Bones]

That's not true.

[Caitlin]

Because they didn't.

[Bobby Bones]

2.

[Caitlin]

You said, did they put their hands on me? Multiple hands were not on you. One woman. Because they were checking.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't see gender. All I saw was a police officer.

[Caitlin]

Okay, one police officer. Is it my turn to tell the story now, or.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, no. Cause. But I just asked a question. You said, true or false. Fine.

[Caitlin]

It was false.

[Bobby Bones]

So this officer grabs me and holds me.

[Caitlin]

You're out of your mind.

[Bobby Bones]

And says, I need to see your identification, sir. And I'm like, oh, my God, I'm going to French jail.

[Caitlin]

None of this is true.

[Bobby Bones]

And so I didn't think she was talking to me because she was treating me like such a criminal. And so then I'm like, oh, sorry, sorry. Cause you knew that. I didn't think they were talking to me because I kept walking.

[Caitlin]

What? They were talking to everybody. Every.

[Bobby Bones]

They didn't stop everybody. They stopped me because I looked like Billy Ba.

[Caitlin]

Everyone listening, please know that's not true. None of this is true.

[Bobby Bones]

You were half asleep behind me.

[Caitlin]

No, I wasn't.

[Bobby Bones]

I got detained by French authorities. And then finally I pulled my stuff out and they let me go through. They didn't stop you.

[Caitlin]

Yes, they did.

[Bobby Bones]

No, they didn't.

[Caitlin]

Yes, they did. I had to show my passport right after you.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't have to show my passport. I had to basically get on the ground. I got cuffed.

[Caitlin]

What happened is there are two French police officers, full gear, like.

[Bobby Bones]

Like bulletproof vests.

[Caitlin]

No bulletproof vests.

[Bobby Bones]

You're out of your mind.

[Caitlin]

I don't think I went to the.

[Bobby Bones]

Same place I went to.

[Caitlin]

I think you were out of your mind.

[Bobby Bones]

Go ahead.

[Caitlin]

And they were checking everyone's passports when they got off the plane. And we both got off the plane and you. And so they're blocking, like. What do you call the hallway that you walk down?

[Bobby Bones]

I called it penitentiary row because that's where I was going.

[Caitlin]

So, you know when you get off.

[Bobby Bones]

The Dead man Walking, that's what I was feeling like.

[Caitlin]

You get off the plane, there's, like, that hallway thing. Makeshift. Before you can. And then you step into the actual airport. They were standing to block where you could step into the airport.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Caitlin]

Taking people's. Everyone's.

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Caitlin]

Yes. Passports. And just looking at their photo, making sure all is good. I appreciate that. Maybe that there was a reason that they did that. We watch enough shows about international espionage and crime to know that maybe there was a reason they were doing that. Whatever.

[Bobby Bones]

See what I saw, I was in the lead. They didn't stop everybody else. They stopped me. For some reason.

[Caitlin]

They stopped every other person.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, whatever.

[Caitlin]

You were in the lead.

[Bobby Bones]

I was detained by French authorities, so.

[Caitlin]

They were checking everyone's passport.

[Bobby Bones]

Did they touch you? They touched me. They grabbed me.

[Caitlin]

No, because I handed them my passport. You didn't hand them your passport. You were like, oh, yeah, I'll get it. Because you have a problem with authority. And so they were not letting you by until you showed them your passport. And you were like, oh, okay. Well. And then you were rummaging through your backpack and tried to step beyond them, and you were like, I'll just step over. Get out of the way. And one woman, very politely, just held her hand out to say, like, you can't pass.

[Bobby Bones]

French law enforcement grabbed me.

[Caitlin]

No. And it barely brushed your arm. Her little sweet hand. And I.

[Bobby Bones]

Her hand was not little or sweet. And she had on bulletproof gear.

[Caitlin]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

And she said, oh, I thought I was going to French jail.

[Caitlin]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

And they don't serve croissants in French jail. And I was. I know that I'm gonna be. I'll be honest. I was a little scared.

[Caitlin]

You weren't scared. This is the silliest thing in the world. Because none of this happened.

[Bobby Bones]

I felt like it did. It's my. My version, so. Oh, we should say why we went.

[Caitlin]

For a vacation. What do you mean?

[Bobby Bones]

Why'd we go?

[Caitlin]

We went.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, ye of little love, because.

[Caitlin]

Oh, you got it for me for Valentine's Day.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Caitlin]

I thought we were going in the summer.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, we never said. We said.

[Caitlin]

Actually, you did. You said that we would go in the next eight months.

[Bobby Bones]

We would try to go to Paris in the next eight months, but you also had casually tossed out there. At some point, you'd like to see what Austria was like. And I listen. You act like I don't listen, but I listen. There are two things I do. One, when authority tries to buck me, I buck back. I think they know who they're messing with. Number two is I listen to what you say. And you said you wanted to go, and so during March Madness, we went on a trip.

[Caitlin]

Well, yeah. I didn't plan the dates, obviously.

[Bobby Bones]

Exactly.

[Caitlin]

You planned it during March Madness.

[Bobby Bones]

Exactly, because that's how much I love you.

[Caitlin]

But that makes no sense.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it does not yet. Yes, it does. Me showing suffer shows you how much I will suffer for you.

[Caitlin]

No, suffering doesn't equate love in all.

[Bobby Bones]

That's why sometimes when I take. I'm in the closet and I take a belt and I whoop myself on my back, just whack, whack. I do that just to show you how much I love you. I'm like, this is for you. Whack.

[Caitlin]

Message received.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. And that's why my back's got all those marks on it. They're not moles. They're not moles.

[Caitlin]

I was biting my tongue.

[Bobby Bones]

They're not gross moles. They're not gross moles that sometimes have little.

[Caitlin]

I didn't say they were gross.

[Bobby Bones]

They're not like moles that are. That aren't on my head, that you don't like scratching my head because you run over them with your fingers and go, oh, that feels like a bumpy Dirt road.

[Caitlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

That's not what that is. No, no, those are. That's from the belt buckle of me slapping my back.

[Caitlin]

Maybe Orion's belt and other constellations.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, that's rude. So as a Valentine's gift, because you do, and I say this in the most loving way, it's Murderers Row with you from December to mid February.

[Caitlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

But you deserve it. It sucks for you. Had to grow up your whole life and have Christmas and your birthday right by each other. But I try to do as good a job as I can of separating them, and they don't even exist near each other in my mind.

[Caitlin]

You do do a good job of separating them. Except for.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, it's always an except for. Except when I'm detained by French authorities.

[Caitlin]

You use. Sometimes you use Christmas wrapping paper for my birthday, and I don't like that. I'd rather it just not be wrapped. Like, I don't even care if I.

[Bobby Bones]

I can't believe that's even a thing. Yeah, how is that a thing? I would. I just use whatever's wrapped. I don't even know that it's Christmas. That's funny to me. I didn't even know that was a thing because it wouldn't matter what the wrapping paper was. I would just use it because it's wrapping paper. I did not know that even popped into your head.

[Caitlin]

No, I. It's just like, oh, it's just leftover Christmas wrapping paper. But. But regardless, it's fine. I would rather you just not wrap anything that's funny than put, like, Santa on my birthday gift.

[Bobby Bones]

I'd like to apologize.

[Caitlin]

No, because. No need for an apology.

[Bobby Bones]

I would like to apologize. I do. This is a sincere one, because I have tried to be very deliberate about not mixing up, because they're basically a week apart. Not mixing up or having them shade each other in any way. Your birthday and Christmas, you do a.

[Caitlin]

Great job of that.

[Bobby Bones]

I did not realize that the Santa paper was a bit of a trigger.

[Caitlin]

No, it's not a trigger.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. It sure popped out pretty quick.

[Caitlin]

It's the only thing I could think of that. That you did wrong.

[Bobby Bones]

Wrong and then not even wrong, and then Valentine's Day. And I think even with Valentine's Day, you know, I don't. I don't know that Valentine's Day, of the three ranks, anywhere near. But I still like for you to feel special. And that's the only thing that I can halfway do decent. Buy gifts. That's it.

[Caitlin]

That's not true.

[Bobby Bones]

I Think that's what I'm pretty good at when it comes to expression?

[Caitlin]

Oh, I don't think so at all.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, thank you. And so, for Valentine's, I had three gifts for you, and I brought the first one in. You opened it up, and you were like, what is this, sour cream?

[Caitlin]

Well, as soon as I opened the pretzel, I knew it was a trip.

[Bobby Bones]

But you didn't open the pretzel first. You opened the sauerkraut first.

[Caitlin]

Whichever one I opened first, I knew it was a trip at that point. Cause it made no sense. It was something I didn't eat. No, it was a pretzel. I opened the pretzel first.

[Bobby Bones]

You didn't know it was a trip immediately.

[Caitlin]

Yes, I did. As soon as I saw a pretzel, I'm like, this is a trip.

[Bobby Bones]

But I couldn't get it sauerkraut first. And then, no, it wasn't in the pretzel.

[Caitlin]

I opened the gift.

[Bobby Bones]

I gave them to you in the order.

[Caitlin]

No, you didn't. I grabbed.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I gave them to you in order because I knew what everyone listening.

[Caitlin]

This is not true.

[Bobby Bones]

I was detained by French authorities. So I gave her a thing of sauerkraut. I gave her a pretzel from Annie Ann's that had been sitting for, like, 12 hours. And then a croissant. And then you're like, is this a trip? And then you were putting it together. And then from that, I said, yes, we're going to go to Paris, then we're going to take a train to Germany, and then we're going to go from Germany to Austria. Vienna, Austria?

[Caitlin]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you turning family text message thread?

[Caitlin]

I was just looking at it.

[Bobby Bones]

I haven't looked at it since they heard my.

[Caitlin]

I couldn't watch the video, obviously, but.

[Bobby Bones]

He loved it the first time. Then we played it. Oh, is your mom with them right now?

[Caitlin]

Yeah, she's there.

[Bobby Bones]

He loved it the first time. Then we played it again. He wanted to. Dang it. Do you have AI that tells? That kind of gives you the.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I hate it.

[Bobby Bones]

He loved it the first time. Then he. We played it again, and he wanted to watch Little Bear again. Wait, I don't understand. What the crap. He gave up on it. Hold on.

[Caitlin]

I think he watched it twice.

[Bobby Bones]

And he's. What? But he's watching the show at the same time. Turn the show off when you're showing my show.

[Caitlin]

Oh, there's. There's another video now.

[Bobby Bones]

Parker Gaso.

[Caitlin]

Oh, look at his face.

[Bobby Bones]

I got a friend. His name Is Parker Gaso, my best friend in the world. You should know. Oh, he's dancing.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. Let me see. Shaking that thing.

[Bobby Bones]

I think I'm shaking. Look, I'm dancing. Uhoh. Uhoh. He's choking. Save him. Oh, he's dancing again. Look at him go. Parker. Parker, are you trying to turn it off?

[Caitlin]

Turn it off. What.

[Bobby Bones]

Off?

[Caitlin]

Cuz he wants to watch Little Bear.

[Bobby Bones]

I hate Little Bear.

[Caitlin]

He'd already watched it twice. Look at him now.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you. The song's called A Friend. Parker Gasso.

[Caitlin]

Did you like it? Yeah. Was it really good? Mommy, Was that your Uncle Bobby? I work at Bear. Yes, boys. Uncle.

[Bobby Bones]

He looks like a little bear friend. Yeah.

[Caitlin]

What's his name? Bobby. Bobby Bones. I don't like him. I don't like him. Now learning that your name is Bobby Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

Why?

[Caitlin]

Because it's not your name and that's confusing.

[Bobby Bones]

The comedy special wasn't comedically inspirational with Bobby Estel.

[Caitlin]

Right. But he doesn't like. And he's going to grow up thinking your last name's Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, whatever, Little Bear, he ain't getting any more songs from me. It's the last time I write him an original song.

[Caitlin]

He's a cutie.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's take a quick pause for a message from our sponsor.

[Larison Campbell]

There's a type of soil in Mississippi called Yazoo clay. It's thick, burnt orange, and it's got a reputation.

[Caitlin]

It's terrible, terrible dirt.

[Larison Campbell]

Yazoo clay eats everything, so things that get buried there tend to stay buried until they're not. In 2012, construction crews at Mississippi's biggest hospital made a shocking discovery.

[Caitlin]

7,000 bodies out there or more, all.

[Larison Campbell]

Former patients of the old state asylum. And nobody knew they were there.

[Caitlin]

It was my family's mystery.

[Larison Campbell]

But in this corner of the south, it's not just the soil that keeps secrets.

[Bobby Bones]

Nobody talks about it.

[Caitlin]

Nobody has any information.

[Larison Campbell]

When you peel back the layers of Mississippi's Yazoo Clay, nothing's ever as simple as you think.

[Caitlin]

The story is much more complicated and nuanced than that.

[Larison Campbell]

I'm Larison Campbell. Listen to under yazukle on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.

[Dylan Mulvaney]

Is this a good time? It's me, Dylan Mulvaney, and my dear friend Joe Locke from Heartstopper. And Agatha all along is my very first guest on my brand new podcast, the Dylan Hour. It's musical mayhem and it is going to be so much fun.

[Bobby Bones]

I like a man.

[Dylan Mulvaney]

You like a man. What do I like, Joe?

[Bobby Bones]

You like a man too.

[Dylan Mulvaney]

We often.

[Bobby Bones]

There's quite similar.

[Dylan Mulvaney]

There's some cross pollination happening in here.

[Bobby Bones]

Not like. No. Have we. No. No, not yet.

[Dylan Mulvaney]

Never say never. I cannot wait for all you girls, gays, and they to join me on this extremely special pink confection of a podcast. There is so much darkness in this world. And what I think we could all use more of is a little joy. Listen to the Dylan hour on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your podcasts. Love ya.

[Jay Shetty]

Hey, you're listening to On Purpose with Jay Shetty. And today my guests are none other than Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco. I can't wait for you to hear this episode about their love story, about their relationship like you've never heard it before. I want to go back to the first time you ever met.

[Caitlin]

Well, thank you so much for this. One of the greatest.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you.

[Caitlin]

I'm Selena. But we're watching Disney Kids.

[Bobby Bones]

When you're a pop star like she is and you're a huge entity and people set up all these walls before, and then the first second, you, like, disarmed everybody. By the way, congratulations on your engagement.

[Caitlin]

What I felt for Benny, it was. Everything about him was honest. He'll tell me me anything that he's feeling, and it made me feel like I could do the same.

[Bobby Bones]

If we would have met each other when we were younger, it would have never worked.

[Jay Shetty]

Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Bobby Bones]

And we're back on the Bobby cast. So we go to Paris and we spend a few days in Paris. Three nights, eh?

[Caitlin]

Three nights in Paris, Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

And I surprised her because I pulled out the old red pea coat, which I hid in my luggage, and I wanted to look as Parisian as possible. And I showed up, and all of a sudden I'm like, all right, I'm ready. It's day 2. Day 2. I didn't break it out for day 1.

[Caitlin]

You didn't break it out for day one. I knew you had something up your sleeve because you told me you're like, I have a thicker coat too, but.

[Bobby Bones]

It was cold, so of course I would have a thicker coat.

[Caitlin]

But I know your inventory, and I couldn't think of what on earth you would bring because you're kind of notorious for not bringing a coat in the dead of winter. If it's snowing, if we're going to Utah, you don't bring a coat.

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like I'll be inside enough why am I going to be outside? Why do I need a coat if I'm going to be inside the whole time?

[Caitlin]

I'm just saying that I was, I. I wasn't sure what coat he brought.

[Bobby Bones]

But when I turned the corner and I was in that red, long pea coat, what'd you think? Come on.

[Caitlin]

Oh, he's in a red long peacoat.

[Bobby Bones]

No, more than that. Come on.

[Caitlin]

No, that's what I thought.

[Bobby Bones]

No, but you thought like, like, oh, he's in red. Lose. He looks like he's a native.

[Caitlin]

No, I appreciated the effort in the wardrobe. Like, I appreciated you wanting to, like, wear something nice.

[Bobby Bones]

I wanted to look sophisticated. Right, because you looked sophisticated.

[Caitlin]

Thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

You always look sophisticated and.

[Caitlin]

No, no. Oh, look. Look at me right now.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, you're right. It's a good point. That's why the camera's on. But I wore that. And then I had a scarf and I brought my own scarf, which you had no idea, except I later learned that it was actually your scarf.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, you brought my scarf.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, but I did bring a scarf.

[Caitlin]

You did.

[Bobby Bones]

And then I argued that it was my scarf until you said, no, that is a scarf from Aritzia, which is an all women's store. Until I was able to see that myself, I did not believe you. And then it was. And so then I traded scarves with you, and you took the brown one that was yours, and I took a black one that was yours. And then I wore the scarf. Except I didn't really know how to wear a scarf because I've never done much scarf wearing. And you would think a loving, supportive wife whose husband has just been held by French authorities would be, hey, I'll help you. But instead you let me look foolish for about two hours wearing the scarf.

[Caitlin]

I told you, you looked like Edgar Allan Poe. And you were wearing a scarf like they wore, I think, in the 90s.

[Bobby Bones]

How am I supposed to wear that? That's the only thing that I know. I don't know.

[Caitlin]

It wasn't the vibe, but we fixed it.

[Bobby Bones]

So I put the scarf on and I like, threw it around my neck and then I. It was fine. And then we went into a store and I saw how they were hanging up on a, like a. It wasn't a mannequin, but it was like a. Imagine a towel rack, but a really nice one. And they hang on. They're hanging like three off. And I was like, oh, that's how to do it. So then I made it look like a tie. And the next thing you know, I was extra sophisticated.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. Slaying.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it's tough. Everybody thought I was local. One woman stopped me and said, hey, can you give me. Can you tell me what that is over there?

[Caitlin]

Okay. She stopped both of us.

[Bobby Bones]

No. Nope.

[Caitlin]

She said, can you tell me this podcast is riddled.

[Bobby Bones]

She said, can you tell me what that is over there, sir? And I said. I said, no, we're not from here.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. We're like, we have no idea.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, there's a debate amongst us, and the debate is if we're somewhere and English isn't their native language, but they speak English and it's in an accent. I like to speak my English back to them in their accent. We meet in the middle. I don't know French. I know a little bit. Not enough to actually talk. I tried to use it once, and the guy laughed at me. So if they're like, hello, would you like me to take you to your room? I would go, yes, would you please take me to her room? Because I feel like they know it in that accent. I'm talking back to them in that accent. You do not like it when I do that?

[Caitlin]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

Why? That is me thinking of them. I'm meeting them halfway.

[Caitlin]

I don't think they receive it that way.

[Bobby Bones]

What are you talking about? A lot of people think I live wherever we go.

[Caitlin]

No one has ever thought that.

[Bobby Bones]

Not true. If we're in Germany and they're like, would you like a bratwurst, sir? And I'm like, oh, I would like a bratwurst. And put some mustard on it, please. I speak in the accent that they know their English in, and I feel like that is me putting in the effort.

[Caitlin]

It's not.

[Bobby Bones]

In Austria. They thought I was local for sure.

[Caitlin]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

People come to me and ask for directions all the time.

[Caitlin]

No, they don't.

[Bobby Bones]

Or. Or I'll walk up and I know, like, three words like guten dog. And I'll do the accent with, like, the note, like, the. The nose and stuff, and they'll think that I'm German, and to start talking full German, they have to go like, whoa, whoa, whoa, buddy. Whoa.

[Caitlin]

No, because when you're walking around saying.

[Bobby Bones]

Guten Tag, like, you're not even doing it right.

[Caitlin]

Well, because I had a little hiccup in my mouth. Guten Tag.

[Bobby Bones]

You're not German. Like, I am. Go ahead.

[Caitlin]

Guten Tag. That's how you were doing it. It's so forced and so intentional. It would be like some. Someone from another country coming over to our country. And when you're just casually walking down the sideway, then being like, hello.

[Bobby Bones]

Hello. I would like that. No, I would. I'd be like, hello, Guten dog. No, I think they like it in other countries when I use their accent with my English because I think it's a hybrid. And aren't we just a big melting pot anyway?

[Caitlin]

No, I actually think that that's kind of offensive now for people to say things are melting pots.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't.

[Caitlin]

Because it means you don't have. I have heard.

[Bobby Bones]

I enjoy a good melting pot.

[Caitlin]

I've heard the argument that.

[Bobby Bones]

You ever been to one of those.

[Caitlin]

Places saying America is a melting pot? I'm cutting. America is a melting pot is kind of taking away the individuality of each culture.

[Bobby Bones]

You ever had fondue?

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I don't really much like it, man.

[Bobby Bones]

I used to love it. There are two things I used to love that I'm pretty embarrassed about that I love now. I used to love fondue and foam parties.

[Caitlin]

It's a phone party.

[Bobby Bones]

What?

[Caitlin]

What's a phone party? Oh, foam. Yeah, they said phone. No, foam party. I mean, I've seen them in movies.

[Bobby Bones]

At Joe's Big Bamboo, they used to have foam parties, and they'd fill the whole dance floor, like, five feet of foam, and everybody would just get in and dance.

[Caitlin]

That's disgusting.

[Bobby Bones]

So it's fondue?

[Caitlin]

Yeah, Fondue's not good.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Caitlin]

And I hate when you go to.

[Bobby Bones]

Church, But I like the chocolate fondue. Like, chocolate fondue, and you have all the stuff on the side. You take the stick and you put it in there. That's what I'm talking about.

[Caitlin]

That's just kind of a dip.

[Bobby Bones]

Like if I had a fondue into a foam party. Ultimate night at age 23.

[Caitlin]

I hate when you go to a Mexican restaurant. You think you're getting queso and you're getting cheese. Fondue.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So there's a difference in actual Mexican queso.

[Caitlin]

Actually, I don't think any actual authentic Mexican restaurants have any sort of queso. Like when I lived in California.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm getting my Mexican lifeline on. Safety answers.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, when I lived in California, they. They don't do queso there. There was one place that was started by.

[Bobby Bones]

Here he is.

[Caitlin]

I got company in Texas.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, can you talk for a minute? Yeah.

[Caitlin]

What's up?

[Bobby Bones]

Hold on. Let me stop outside. Okay. I think he said it sounds basketball.

[Caitlin]

Well, then why are we calling?

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, let him enjoy. It's his practice. Hey, can you let me know when you can talk? Okay. Caitlyn and I Say hi to Caitlin. Hey, Caleb.

[Caitlin]

Hey.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, we're doing a podcast, and we need our. So what's Mexican cheese? Queso. Okay, but, like, what's the version that we don't like? What do you mean? Because one kind is not, like, for chips. One kind of cheese.

[Caitlin]

Eddie, he's talking about queso fundido.

[Bobby Bones]

Queso fundido. That does not. That's not a thing. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I mean, queso fundido, that's a thing, but that's just melted cheese, right?

[Caitlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And then there's what they call cheese diploma.

[Caitlin]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

I like that.

[Caitlin]

That's orange.

[Bobby Bones]

That's. That's what they call it. Like, here in Nashville. They call it cheese dip. But that's. It's. It's queso. It's like a cheat.

[Caitlin]

It's like.

[Bobby Bones]

It's like melted cheese, but it's more watered down, so you can dip a chip in it. But what's the kind that. I don't like that. When they're like, okay, you know, this is not, like, queso. It's just going to be cheese that's gonna be all stringy. It's like string cheese. Oh, interesting.

[Caitlin]

Queso fundido.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what you say. Caitlin, it's not string cheese, but it's string queso fundido.

[Caitlin]

It's like the fondue cheese.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, Bones, she's right.

[Caitlin]

You're talking.

[Bobby Bones]

You're talking about queso fundido.

[Caitlin]

Thank you, Eddie.

[Bobby Bones]

That's. That's the one where you, like, grab it and it's like. It's like a hot pizza. Yeah, I don't like that.

[Caitlin]

I don't either.

[Bobby Bones]

What's. What's so good? What's more traditional?

[Caitlin]

That one.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what I thought. That's why I don't like it.

[Caitlin]

But do they have that in Mexico?

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie, she wants to know if they have that in Mexico. Yes.

[Caitlin]

Really? See, when I live, stuff in it.

[Bobby Bones]

They put, like, chorizo in it or, like, onions and peppers or all kinds of things. It's so good. I'll pass. Okay, well, we're just lifelining our Mexican friend. Thank you, and no problem. That's all, buddy. Bye. Bye. All right. There he is.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I don't really like queso fundido, but I really like queso.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, me too. I can't really eat it anymore.

[Caitlin]

I actually like the white queso better than the other kind that like orange kind.

[Bobby Bones]

Both are good.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, both are good, but I'm just saying, I prefer one.

[Bobby Bones]

I can't eat dairy Though True. I know you're watching your phone because we ordered food. Is it here? No, not at all. Okay. I have a lot of stories to tell. And when you're not here. When you're not here, they're easier to.

[Caitlin]

Tell because I don't say that that's a lie.

[Bobby Bones]

They don't get challenged. I have mentioned many times that I can't eat dairy and it sucks. But I can tell you this. I'm not in the bathroom near as long.

[Caitlin]

That's very true. Yeah. You are not in the bathroom near as long or as often like it was.

[Bobby Bones]

But I would go in and it mostly be like an exploratory mission where I could go in for an hour and a half and, well, we found nothing. It'd be like drilling for oil. Like, well, we went and dug and we found no oil.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. It would ruin a lot of trips, vacations, holidays, whatever. Because obviously when you're on a vacation or it's a holiday, like, there are a lot of rich foods around or you're just partaking in food that you might not eat on a weekly basis and you would eat these things and I would know they're bad for you, but I.

[Bobby Bones]

Dairy. But no, we didn't know dairy was bad.

[Caitlin]

I've said that for so long. I said no. Try cutting out dairy.

[Bobby Bones]

But try cutting out dairy is one thing, and knowing for sure that it's dairy is another.

[Caitlin]

Well, how could I know for sure? I can't run tests on you other than I stop. Process of elimination. Because doctor, our doctor told you to stop, to try it.

[Bobby Bones]

Got it.

[Caitlin]

And after he told you to stop.

[Bobby Bones]

Trying it because he's a doctor.

[Caitlin]

He's a doctor, he listened and he stopped. But I had told you that prior.

[Bobby Bones]

I've told you a lot of stuff, but you haven't listened to it.

[Caitlin]

Or. Like, I remember one time your stomach was hurting.

[Bobby Bones]

Here we go.

[Caitlin]

So badly. And we were at a Mexican restaurant. And like that night after. I mean, I think while we were at the restaurant, you had to go to the bathroom, which isn't abnormal.

[Bobby Bones]

In the restaurant. Is this. What is this? With our friends who. Go ahead. Anyway.

[Caitlin]

No, wait. Now I'm. Now I'm curious.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, keep telling your story. Where were we?

[Caitlin]

We're with my family.

[Bobby Bones]

Got it. Mexican restaurant. What town?

[Caitlin]

I think we were in Fayetteville.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, go.

[Caitlin]

And we were at that one restaurant that we eat at sometimes. Oh, yeah, the Mexican one. I can't remember the name of it.

[Bobby Bones]

Not me either.

[Caitlin]

Okay. And you got like some sort of chili. Like spicy chili, cheesy, order to the house. No.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Caitlin]

No, I'm talking about different. There have been many times, but I'm talking about time we were at the restaurant. It was like some spicy chili, cheesy enchilada pork thing. Like, I look good. You disappeared to the bathroom. And my dad is just like, first of all, so kind. Like, he would.

[Bobby Bones]

He held my hand while it's on the toilet.

[Caitlin]

No, he worries about everybody. But he was like, why would you order that? If you have stomach issues like that that would cause anyone to have some gastrointestinal struggles and. But for you to order that, it was crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

I was serious, though, about trying to find what was wrong because I did a colonoscopy, I did endoscopy.

[Caitlin]

You weren't that serious.

[Bobby Bones]

I did all the medical things. I did blood test.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. I think in the back of my mind or the front of my mind, I don't know. I think that you wanted it to be maybe something a little more obscure or like something I don't like, something where you didn't have to cut anything out because you really didn't.

[Bobby Bones]

I love cheese.

[Caitlin]

You didn't want to do process of elimination. And you do love cheese. You would get. You would tell me at times if I were going to make tacos or something Mexican for dinner and we didn't have cheese, you were like, well, I'm not eating it then if we don't.

[Bobby Bones]

Have cheese, because it doesn't make sense to have a taco with no cheese. Eddie would make freaking fajitas. There'd be no cheese. I'd be like, I'm not eating this. There's no cheese. He's like, this is. This is Mexican. We don't put cheese on fajitas. Well, I'm not Mexican, and. But now.

[Caitlin]

Pretty ironic.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, my God, it sucks to not eat cheese. But I. It has helped me. I mean, 83. It has changed. 83.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. It's. It's been a really good change.

[Bobby Bones]

It's hard.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I know.

[Bobby Bones]

Because I would be drinking smoothies, and I'd be like, my stomach hurts. And you'd be like, well, what's in it? I would just like strawberries and bananas. Protein. What kind of protein? I don't know. Whey protein. Well, don't you know whey has. Is dairy? No. Oh, yeah.

[Caitlin]

There are a lot of things that I guess you didn't know were dairy. We're now learning.

[Bobby Bones]

I hate it.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, it sucks. I do feel bad for you about that? Because I also love dairy, but I'm not really. I don't have any dairy much anymore either because we don't keep it in the house.

[Bobby Bones]

I drink milk.

[Caitlin]

You drink milk.

[Bobby Bones]

It sucks. Do you know what it's taken? It's taken the joy of drinking the milk after the cereal. Because I love cereal. It's one of my favorite foods. And I would love to eat cereal and then have the milk afterward.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I've never done that.

[Bobby Bones]

One of my treats. I don't even do that now because it's not even that malk m A O K. So stupid. We were in Paris and I did have to go to the bathroom. Really bad. Really bad. But number one.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, you had to pee.

[Bobby Bones]

And the thing about Paris, one, very clean. Even though it is a massive city. Millions of people, people walking the streets. One, they're dressed up, which is pretty.

[Caitlin]

They just look nice.

[Bobby Bones]

Positively bizarre that almost everybody walking the streets looks like they put some time in before they walk the streets.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. I just think that their closets are so different than us. Like, they much where a lot of our closets. A good portion of our wardrobe is athleisure. I don't think that's the case.

[Bobby Bones]

Cut off shirts. Yeah, I love a cut off shirt.

[Caitlin]

I know.

[Bobby Bones]

It's my favorite. It's my staple. I'm wearing one right now, as a matter of fact.

[Caitlin]

No, I think that was made a.

[Bobby Bones]

Tank top with no sleeves. I should just say that I love sleeveless shirts. I don't even have, like, big. I'm not even trying to show off my big arms because I don't have big arms. I just like the comfortability of it and the ability at any time, if I need to get into a fist fight with French authorities, I'm ready to go.

[Caitlin]

Your birthday's coming up. I'm just gonna get you a bunch.

[Bobby Bones]

Of sleeves to put on the shirts and put Velcro. We were walking and I had to pee. And you can't just go into a place and use their bathroom.

[Caitlin]

Well, that's the case, like, in a lot of. Yeah, that's the case here as well.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. You can't just go in and be like, I'd like to go to the bathroom. Nope.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, a lot of stores only have bathrooms for employees.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. And so I had to go real bad. And it's one of those times where. You know how sometimes when you get sick, you just appreciate the times when you weren't sick.

[Caitlin]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

And you regret not appreciating it when you weren't sick because, like, I feel so bad. I remember back in the good old days when I didn't feel this bad. I just wish back in the good old days I would have just taken a minute, been like, I love not feeling sick. I had to pee so bad. I was appreciating the times I didn't have to pee.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I feel that.

[Bobby Bones]

And so we're looking for anywhere. I'm starting to think I gotta pee on a tree in the middle of Paris. And if those French authorities are still looking for me, which they might have been. Cause I was a little malleable with them, they deserved it. Then I might be going to jail.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, you had an attitude. I could tell something shifted in you.

[Bobby Bones]

I had to pee so bad, I was gonna go on my pants. And so we type into the map. This is your idea. You're like, why don't we just type bathroom into the map? Somebody that food's here is at the gate. Do you wanna let em in?

[Caitlin]

Can I open the gate?

[Bobby Bones]

Mm, mm. You let them in?

[Caitlin]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

And then I'll. I'll finish up. We'll do two stories and I'll finish up. Are they in?

[Caitlin]

All good? Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

So you type bathroom.

[Caitlin]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

That's Occam's razor. Familiar with it?

[Caitlin]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

Occam's Razor.

[Caitlin]

We've talked about this. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You are familiar with it?

[Caitlin]

Yeah, we've talked about it.

[Bobby Bones]

Care to share?

[Caitlin]

No, because I can't remember, but I feel like it's gonna be boring, so can we skip it? No, I know we've talked about it.

[Bobby Bones]

Occam's Razor is the principle that suggests the simplest explanation is the best. And for you it was, why don't we just type in bathroom? The simplest? And it said bathroom, 15ft. And we're like, what? And in Paris, in the streets, they have these little. They look like alien spacecraft.

[Caitlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Little pods that don't look like bathrooms. And you walk up to it and you push a button. If it's blue and it goes. The door opens.

[Caitlin]

No, you don't even push a button. Do you wave your hand?

[Bobby Bones]

Good point. You don't touch it.

[Caitlin]

You don't touch anything in the bathroom.

[Bobby Bones]

Great point. And it opens and there's a toilet. And then so we got there and some guy walked in, so it was red. And I didn't even know there was a urinal on the other side until you said, there's a urinal. And I'm just waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting. And you said, hey, you can go over to that urinal. And I'm like, oh, cool. So the guy walks out, the whole wall is water and a waterfall wall. It's a wall and it just washes the whole thing and washes the ground. So there's water around it. It looks like it could be pee. It's not water from.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, it's.

[Bobby Bones]

It's all clean and so. And then the other one. Cuz I'm in the urinal. Like this is the cleanest, most public bathroom ever. The other one had an actual commode.

[Caitlin]

Yes, it did. On that side. It did on the side that was the urinal. It was like half outside. Like I could see.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh yeah, you can see my feet. I have a picture of my feet.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I could see your feet. And I could see the top of the waterfall wall, which was kind of nice. It felt like there was, you know, some air flow. Yeah, I have that photo. I almost put it in my little collage.

[Bobby Bones]

It looks like the water looks like pee. Oh, I didn't care about me. For me peeing. I don't care about that. It looks like the water could be pee, but it's not the water. It's from the waterfall.

[Caitlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And then the other side, after you leave the bathroom, the door shuts, it cleans itself. Water blew again. Put your hand up. So it opens public bathrooms that clean themselves.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. You know what else is crazy?

[Bobby Bones]

You know what happened here? Everybody like homes. People be whacking off on that thing all the time.

[Caitlin]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

They would. Or pooping on the door or drunk people that we ruin it in a minute.

[Caitlin]

Well, one thing that was crazy about the bathrooms in Europe was that a lot of like flushing the toilet and pretty much everywhere. Like a public restroom, airport, whatever. You waved your hand over a sensor. It's so nice because I always flush a toilet with my foot. Like with my shoe. If I'm in a public restroom. If I'm. If I'm here at the house, I flush it with my foot, my bare foot or my sock or whatever. Because I just.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a house. But this is our. We're the only person touching it.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, but you, you do it clean at our own house, like a lot of times.

[Bobby Bones]

Why would you do it at our own house?

[Caitlin]

We just talked about your bathroom escapades. But I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

But I don't have them anymore. I'm off.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, but that's. That could be thick on the walls. So I just do my foot. But I appreciated the wave over the sensor. I. We should incorporate that in America, even. Especially in, like, the plain bathrooms. I hate going in there. But of course, if it's an overnight flight, you can't.

[Bobby Bones]

Why do you hate going in there?

[Caitlin]

Avoid it. They're just dirty.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Caitlin]

And I hate to have to press the button to flush the toilet. And in the airplane bathroom, you could wave your hand and it would flush for you.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you notice that in the airplane bathroom on British Airways?

[Caitlin]

Yeah. That's how we flew.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. But yes. You didn't have to touch it.

[Caitlin]

No, you have to.

[Bobby Bones]

On the American. We have to use your tongue. It's so freaking gross.

[Caitlin]

Totally.

[Bobby Bones]

So I was amazed. Impressed by the public bathrooms.

[Caitlin]

Amazed. Just the cleanliness in general, though. They have another standard.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, I agree. And the fact that everybody gets dressed there. I only have, like.

[Caitlin]

I'm good. I don't care. I'm not even that hungry. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. The Bobby cast. We'll be right back.

[Larison Campbell]

There's a type of soil in Mississippi called Yazoo clay. It's thick, burnt orange, and it's got a reputation.

[Caitlin]

It's terrible, terrible dirt.

[Larison Campbell]

Yazoo clay eats everything, so things that get buried there tend to stay buried until they're not. In 2012, construction crews at Mississippi's biggest hospital made a shocking discovery.

[Caitlin]

7,000 bodies out there or more, all.

[Larison Campbell]

Former patients of the old state asylum. And nobody knew they were there.

[Caitlin]

It was my family's mystery.

[Larison Campbell]

But in this corner of the south, it's not just the soil that keeps secrets.

[Bobby Bones]

Nobody talks about it.

[Caitlin]

Nobody has any information.

[Larison Campbell]

When you peel back the layers of Mississippi's Yazoo clay, nothing's ever as simple as you think.

[Caitlin]

The story is much more complicated and nuanced than that.

[Larison Campbell]

I'm Larison Campbell. Listen to under yazukle on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.

I'm Selena. We're watching Disney Kids.

[Bobby Bones]

When you're a pop star like she is, and you're a huge entity and people set up all these walls before, and then the first second, you, like, disarmed everybody. By the way, congratulations on your engagement.

[Caitlin]

What I felt for Benny, it was. Everything about him was honest. He'll tell me anything that he's feeling, and it made me feel like I could do the same.

[Bobby Bones]

If we would have met each other when we were younger, it would have never worked.

[Jay Shetty]

Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Bobby Bones]

This is the Bobbycast. We got jumped online by Camila Cabello.

[Caitlin]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And so we're at a store in Paris. We're just waiting in line because it's ever. All the stores are pretty thin. Like, there's not a lot of room in them. They're multi levels, but you really don't go.

[Caitlin]

They're not expansive.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's a good word. Do you want to say what store it was? Does it matter? Yeah.

[Caitlin]

Mew, mew.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. M I, U, M I, U. I would have called it me, me, I, me, me, you, me, you. But I know it's mew, mew, mew, mew. And we're there. We're waiting because there's, like, seven workers, and each worker has to be with somebody the whole time. And there's like seven people in there shopping, and we're standing there, it's cold. And they let us at least stand inside the building. And you go, do not turn around. Do not stare. Camila Cabello's right behind us in line.

[Caitlin]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

And I immediately turn around and stare. And I'm like, huh? There she is. And you said. I said, don't stare. And I said, they didn't know I was staring. They couldn't tell. I played it cool. And it was her and her boyfriend, who apparently is a billionaire. Is that true?

[Caitlin]

I didn't know that until after we Saw her. And I saw a story pop up online about Camila Cabello and her billionaire boyfriend.

[Bobby Bones]

I need to look up, see what he is.

[Caitlin]

He's the heir to some fortune.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, he really is.

[Caitlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Camilla. Now I can't say it. Camila Cabello, boyfriend. Boom.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I saw them. They were at the. They were at the Chanel show.

[Bobby Bones]

Camilla Cabello. Cozy. Is up to rumored new billionaire heir, boyfriend, Henry Jr. In St. Barts. I need to know more about this guy. She's 27. They were spotted. Did anybody ever spot him with us? Or, like, in Paris with us? Were we spotted with them?

[Caitlin]

Well, she had. I was just saying she had been spotted in Paris. The fashion show the week before the Chanel fashion show. It was Paris Fashion Week the week before we went.

[Bobby Bones]

His family is worth $1.7 billion as of 2019. Yeah, I don't know, but they were there, and they had a guy with them. Wasn't a bodyguard because he was small.

[Caitlin]

No, I think he was probably a stylist, because I noticed that she was asking him a lot of questions and kind of taking direction from him on what she should buy. And. And he was very fashionable and cool. So I'm assuming he was a stylist.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. No bodyguard. He was half the size of her boyfriend.

[Caitlin]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And jumped right in front of us in line.

[Caitlin]

Well, that's.

[Bobby Bones]

We're gonna be honest.

[Caitlin]

I'm not trying to go for a salacious headline.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not. You think this is salacious? We got jumped in line by Camila Cabello and her billionaire boyfriend. No doubt about it.

[Caitlin]

So what happened was we were next up. We were standing inside. Camila Cabello, her boyfriend, and their friend were all outside the door. The man opening the door opened the door to tell them, hey, it's going to be a minute. No one's available right now. Wait in line.

[Bobby Bones]

Essentially behind us.

[Caitlin]

Already in line behind us. And she was fine with it. Like, I heard her say, okay, like, whatever. And then about 15 seconds later, her boyfriend, who I. I don't know if he's French, but he was speaking French. Spoke French.

[Bobby Bones]

Probably just spoke in an accent. English accent. That sounded French. Like, I like to do.

[Caitlin]

Absolutely not. No, he was speaking French. And he asked the. I don't know what he said. He said it in French. He said. I'm guessing.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, Guessing. Guess.

[Caitlin]

Well, I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Guess.

[Caitlin]

Just guess.

[Bobby Bones]

Speculation. I think he said, this is Camila Cabello. She's a pop star, and these are two schlubs ahead of Us. Let us jump in line.

[Caitlin]

That's what I heard in my mind originally. I did think that. But then after I found out who he was, he might have just been saying his own name, but, well. But I don't think that they really care. In Paris, the mecca of fashion and celebrity. Like, I don't think.

[Bobby Bones]

Then why'd they jump us?

[Caitlin]

Maybe because he's like, hey, I'm a billionaire.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Then we got jumped by a billionaire and Camilla, like a bay.

[Caitlin]

But what happened? So then the guy was like, okay, whatever. And then he let them in. And then he immediately let us in.

[Bobby Bones]

Follow because he knew he had done wrong. Yeah.

[Caitlin]

He was like, I can't let these two poor people, like, stand here.

[Bobby Bones]

You and I are, like, freezing in our scarves. I'm wearing mine. Ill fitting. And yours looks perfect.

[Caitlin]

Edgar Poe going into Mew Mew.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, don't quote the Raven. Nevermore.

[Caitlin]

Yes. And so they let us in. Honestly appreciated it. I think she got us in a little earlier than we were going to, so.

[Bobby Bones]

You're way too kind because we for sure got jumped. And that's showbiz, baby. I get it. They're famous.

[Caitlin]

I get it. There's a lot of times they're famous.

[Bobby Bones]

We're not.

[Caitlin]

No, there's a lot of times where we get privilege and other people don't.

[Bobby Bones]

When?

[Caitlin]

Whenever. Like, if there's no table at a restaurant or something.

[Bobby Bones]

This has never happened.

[Caitlin]

And people, no, I'm okay.

[Bobby Bones]

You're just trying to be nice. But that's not happened.

[Caitlin]

No, it's never happened. Where we show up and then they're like, oh, wait, we do have a table. And we cut people online. Never, ever, ever has that happened. And we wouldn't do that. But what has happened is there are no reservations online. And maybe someone calls and says that if we're, like, in town for something and. And one of your managers calls and says, hey, is there any way you can make room? And then they make room for us.

[Bobby Bones]

But I don't think you understand what they say. Every time I call, they go, camila Cabello is coming. And then we show up. Right?

[Caitlin]

So true. And I'm the billionaire boy.

[Bobby Bones]

They think you're the billionaire boyfriend. Yes.

[Caitlin]

I love that.

[Bobby Bones]

For me, we saw Pharrell so far at our hotel. Would you like to tell that story? There's only really one good story.

[Caitlin]

Saw for El at our hotel.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, there's. There's a good story.

[Caitlin]

Oh, we were sitting having lunch. We actually thought we were going to have tea like, we wanted to.

[Bobby Bones]

We thought it was a tea room, and it was.

[Caitlin]

Our hotel had this really cool, like, little tea time, similar to, like, English tea time, except for at the French tea time, that's only sweets and tea, so no, like, sandwiches or anything like that. We thought that would be fun, so we thought that's what we were going to. And I went to the restroom, and Bobby orchestrated the whole thing, and so. Excuse me. And when I get back, we're, like, going into this restaurant that we had had dinner in the night before, which it was definitely not the tea room. So your French accent and English words didn't translate perfectly because we ended up not in the tea room, just eating lunch in this other restaurant. So we're sitting there. I did order a tea, and you ordered something. Water, probably.

[Bobby Bones]

Water and a diet cracker.

[Caitlin]

Yep. And then Pharrell walked behind us.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't notice him.

[Caitlin]

You did well, because he was behind you.

[Bobby Bones]

But I wouldn't have noticed them anyway. You notice things. I don't.

[Caitlin]

You notice things. You. You notice some people.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't notice Pharrell. And you're like, that's for real. And I was like, holy crap. And then.

[Caitlin]

Oh, I forgot about this. Okay. And then. So we were sitting at a table. The table next to us was empty, and the table beyond that had two people in from, I think, Japan. And they. The girl was pretending to take photos of her boyfriend or husband, and really, I think she was videoing Pharrell. And so Pharrell's bodyguard came up and sat in between us and that other couple and talked to her and said, I'm assuming, like, no photos or videos. And then he sat there for the whole time.

[Bobby Bones]

And you were rightfully so a little irritated at Pharrell's bodyguard.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I mean, I understand, but, like, it's legal for her to take photos and videos of Pharrell.

[Bobby Bones]

And Pharrell was sitting right in the main part of the restaurant slash tea room. Like, he wasn't. If he wanted to not be public, he could have asked for. I felt like. And I didn't think much about it until you were like, it's not illegal that she was taking a picture of it. I was like, you know what? You're right. Like, who gives a crap?

[Caitlin]

Well, I felt like he was kind of embarrassing her too, and I didn't like that. But I don't think that that was a reflection of Pharrell.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't either.

[Caitlin]

I don't think Pharrell cared.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think Pharrell even knew.

[Caitlin]

I don't think he knew.

[Bobby Bones]

And I don't. A lot of times where this happens, they don't know. But the bodyguard or the manager or whomever will jump in. Yes, but I do. I agreed with you. There was nothing illegal happening. It wasn't like it was grossly inappropriate where they were just. It was like a couple pictures. Obviously, they were taking a picture for real, but who cares?

[Caitlin]

Kind of far away from them.

[Bobby Bones]

And he looked great. And he's in this cool puffy jacket.

[Caitlin]

So cool.

[Bobby Bones]

And he's in a public place.

[Caitlin]

He was in a public place. He was having a meeting. He came in with several people. Yeah. It was kind of annoying to me that they. They put her on blast.

[Bobby Bones]

A couple other things. So we. We're in France, which, by the way.

[Caitlin]

Pharrell is the creative director of Louis Vuitton in.

[Bobby Bones]

In, like, name only. Like, Pharrell's our creative director.

[Caitlin]

I assume he's pretty collaborative with it.

[Bobby Bones]

Meaning does he have actual responsibilities or.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I'm sure.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, is he, like, the creative director?

[Caitlin]

I believe so.

[Bobby Bones]

Like. Like, he's the head of Louisiana.

[Caitlin]

I'm sure he's the head designer. Louis Vuitton.

[Bobby Bones]

What's the difference in head creative director and head designer? Well, it's crazy.

[Caitlin]

He's not designing the pieces. That's what I'm saying. I'm sure he's overseeing. I'm sure he's sent options of campaigns. I don't like doing a lot of. I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like it's just, like, he does a little bit. But they just like to have Pharrell.

[Caitlin]

I don't think so. I think he probably has a lot of input as far as, like, the fashion show, as far as their, like, visuals for their campaigns. And.

[Bobby Bones]

What do I know? He's really cool. I've met him. He's really nice.

[Caitlin]

He's so cool.

[Bobby Bones]

I hated this bodyguard, did that to that woman because it was embarrassing. I felt embarrassed for them, and they didn't deserve that. They didn't deserve that. Okay, so we leave Paris, and I have these romantic dreams of us taking a train across the country.

[Caitlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

It wasn't. It wasn't really what I thought it was going to be. I think the train system is freaking amazing.

[Caitlin]

No, and the train was great. Like, the train was efficient. Yes, that's what I'll say. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

But I thought we were first class. We were first class. And it was, like, very. It was. It was terrible.

[Caitlin]

Well, I thought you thought it Was going to be like Polar Express.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Caitlin]

Like, yes.

[Bobby Bones]

I want to let carts come through with cakes and stuff.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. And, like, it's super fancy, you know, like, inside of the room.

[Bobby Bones]

I want. I want the. Whatever. The guy that wears the hat.

[Caitlin]

Conductor.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. To come up and be like, greetings, thanks for coming on my train.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. That's not what it is. No, that one in particular. There are some like that. Like, we looked up some.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. We weren't on any of that. That system, the public transit is amazing because you can go one city the next in an hour, hour and a half. It's awesome. The fact that we don't have it here, it's a. It's injustice. I say Northeast has it. And it was really cool because went to New Hampshire, went up to Maine and back. It was pretty cool.

[Caitlin]

When I lived in Houston, there was all this talk about how we were going to get a train that went from Houston. Dallas, Houston and Austin. And I don't know if that ever happened.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't either, because in Austin. I was in Austin at the same time, and they were like, we're gonna get a train that goes Houston, Dallas.

[Caitlin]

You weren't in Austin when I lived.

[Bobby Bones]

In Houston, but when I was there, they were saying the same thing.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. So a load of crap.

[Bobby Bones]

Load of crap. So we go to Germany, and we had a stay over in a town called Baden Baden, or as I called it, Baden Baden.

[Caitlin]

Baden Baden.

[Bobby Bones]

And it was literally just us staying in our hotel room that night.

[Caitlin]

The problem was we were there two nights.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, not Baden Baden.

[Caitlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, we were. I'm thinking of. I'm thinking Salzburg. Oh, yeah. Baden was great. Yeah. No, I like Baden Baden.

[Caitlin]

Baden was good.

[Bobby Bones]

Our hotel room was good.

[Caitlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Caitlin]

The food, the restaurant.

[Bobby Bones]

The restaurant was really good. I tartared my brains out.

[Caitlin]

You tartarred your brains out.

[Bobby Bones]

It's like when people do wine, they, like, taste the wine. How does this taste? And they give you a little taste. And I never had wine, so I don't know. And they're, like, good. But they would do that with my beef tartare, and I don't know that I would have bet I knew what tartare was until I ordered it. I'd have probably guessed it.

[Caitlin]

You know what it is?

[Bobby Bones]

I know. I think I would have guessed it, but I don't. I wouldn't have been. For sure. For sure. But they bring you this, and this sounds disgusting, but it's raw, right?

[Caitlin]

Yeah, it's raw.

[Bobby Bones]

It can't be totally raw. Because I can't get beef that's in here and make tartare out of it.

[Caitlin]

No, I'm sure it's like, I don't know, cured in some ways.

[Bobby Bones]

Whatever it is. It's. We'll just say it's raw beef, but then they have all the stuff and you tell. They put eggs in it. They take. They put a little chive in it, Mustard, mayonnaise, whatever. Whatever you want. They mix it up and they go, here, take a little taste, sir. It's like when they do the wine I never get to do, and I'm like this. I think that'll do. And then they do it at tartar, like five times.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, you had a lot of tartare on this trip. Be it beef, tuna, like you were tartarin. Like crazy taren Taran.

[Bobby Bones]

They were calling me Bobby. Bobby Tartar. I'd leave out, and they'd be like, later, tart.

[Caitlin]

Another thing that was great at that restaurant was tart the apple pancake.

[Bobby Bones]

That was stupid.

[Caitlin]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

I was tricked.

[Caitlin]

Well, you couldn't have been tricked, because I had it the first night and I liked it so much, and you kept. You tried it and wanted other bites. So you liked it.

[Bobby Bones]

No, Bobby Tartar didn't love the pancake. I liked it the first night because I thought it was a literal pancake. And you only gave me one bite. I always dreamed of marrying somebody that would give me the last bite. Honestly, they would be so selfless that they would go, you want the last bite?

[Caitlin]

I ain't your girl.

[Bobby Bones]

I love you so much. Why don't you have the last bite? I dreamed of that. I don't have that.

[Caitlin]

No. I will share anything with you, but food. I hate sharing food.

[Bobby Bones]

Sharing food. I have to fight to get anything. And you get. And you're like, fine, have a little piece of this thing. And I thought it was a banana or, excuse me, an apple pancake. And it wasn't. It was just sliced apples in the shape of a pancake.

[Caitlin]

No, there was a thin layer of pancake on the bottom, and they'd cooked up.

[Bobby Bones]

I got. At night, too. It was not good. I enjoyed my tartare.

[Caitlin]

We don't like apples, so I don't know why you wanted it in the first place.

[Bobby Bones]

I was led to believe the night before that it was of pancakes on my head. I tasted pancake. So we did Baden Baden. We went and shopped at a. This was the good thing about Baden Baden. We found a store that was a vintage designer store. You love Vintage doesn't matter what it is. If it's old, she wants to go check it out.

[Caitlin]

Just like my husband.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. And that. We're done here. We'll see you guys tomorrow.

[Caitlin]

Like, all things vintage, baby, that hurts Bobby Tartar's feelings. Sorry.

[Bobby Bones]

So we go in thinking, really, we're just gonna walk around and do some steps.

[Caitlin]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

And we found a really elite vintage store, didn't we?

[Caitlin]

Yeah. It was awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

It was awesome.

[Caitlin]

That's my favorite thing, is, like, digging through items to find a treasure.

[Bobby Bones]

We found lots of treasures. We bought, like, five or six things.

[Caitlin]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

There was, like, one bag that. It's hard to get you to spend money at a place because you're like, I don't know, it's too much or, I don't know if I even want it.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. I like to also, like, I want to know I'm getting a good deal, so I want to compare.

[Bobby Bones]

But there's nowhere to compare.

[Caitlin]

I know. Well, actually, there is, like, a hack. I'm sure you all know, but my friends and I do this where we'll. If we see anything at a store, we'll take a photo of it, and then we'll go into Google, Google images, upload the photo, and see online anywhere where we could get it cheaper.

[Bobby Bones]

Let me guess. You and Caitlin Gabberman do that.

[Caitlin]

Yes. Why would you say her name like that? You loved her.

[Bobby Bones]

Caitlin Gabberman. We love her because she is a bad influence sometimes on you.

[Caitlin]

No, she's not.

[Bobby Bones]

She's the best influence ever as a person. She's amazing at times. You know, you two maybe hate on Ross, and I style a little bit.

[Caitlin]

Well, work on it.

[Bobby Bones]

I'll say it. Maybe hate on Ross and I style just a little bit. But there was a bag, and you're like, look at this bag. And then it wasn't even a bag for me. And I'll wear a bag. I got made fun of. I got roasted. If you saw the comments on my Instagram with my bag, I don't read them. My Bottega bag.

[Caitlin]

I get too nervous.

[Bobby Bones]

They were crushing me for a purse. And I'm like, screw you guys. I do not use pockets.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. Try being evolved, people.

[Bobby Bones]

I stand by it. I love it. I even call it a purse. I do not care. It makes life so much easier.

[Caitlin]

It's very convenient.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Caitlin]

Remember when my dad carried one?

[Bobby Bones]

The two things I use people don't. They're like, I can't believe you do that. Because of convenience. A purse and tampons.

[Caitlin]

Okay. Remember when my dad carried one in Italy, and he was like, this is the greatest.

[Bobby Bones]

It's the greatest thing. Yes.

[Caitlin]

Because you don't have your bulky bill.

[Bobby Bones]

Fold or wallet or whatever you call it, so. Yeah. And so find a bag. And I'm like, no, you have to get the bag, because I also love the bag. And you're like, I'm not gonna get the bag. And then I went and got the bag.

[Caitlin]

It was a limited edition. It was really cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. And I was like, we will take this bag.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, you did.

[Bobby Bones]

It's awesome. I love it. And it's not for me. I mean, I would. I would use it for sure.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, you told me you would.

[Bobby Bones]

So we did that at Bon Badn. Then the next night, we take a train next day to Salzburg, Austria, because we want to go Austria. But we just spent one night there. Yeah.

[Caitlin]

We took a car.

[Bobby Bones]

Did we?

[Caitlin]

Because we stopped in Munich.

[Bobby Bones]

That's right. Oh, Munich had the best freaking dog. I don't know what it was. I don't know. It wasn't a hot dog, and it wasn't like a sausage.

[Caitlin]

It was a kind of sauce.

[Bobby Bones]

It wasn't a bratwurst. It was some kind of worst. It was so good that I would take a bite and shake my head because I would go. And I would go, oh, my God, I cannot believe this. Is this good?

[Caitlin]

Yeah. It was grossing me out.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, it was one of the great. It was one of my favorite food items I've ever eaten in my life.

[Caitlin]

Well, I didn't. It was so big, and it had mustard on it, which I hate.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, you never had mustard ketchup, but it had sauerkraut, too. And I don't really like sauerkraut, but it was awesome.

[Caitlin]

Sauerkraut. And I don't plan on trying it, but they handed you this massive.

[Bobby Bones]

It's two feet long.

[Caitlin]

Worst.

[Bobby Bones]

It's awesome.

[Caitlin]

But no plate. Yeah, that part in one little miniature, like, cocktail napkin. And so I just. You were eating it in the car.

[Bobby Bones]

It was one of the best.

[Caitlin]

You know what place to lay it down?

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't.

[Caitlin]

Holding it the whole time.

[Bobby Bones]

Lay down. It was going, hey, that thing was so good. It was going in a hole.

[Caitlin]

You did eat it all. And I asked you before we got in the car, are you really gonna eat all this? Yeah, because if you're not, throw it away, because I don't want to smell that on the drive.

[Bobby Bones]

Top five things I've ever eaten in my life.

[Caitlin]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Munich, Germany. And it was just at, like, a market. What was that thing called?

[Caitlin]

I don't know the German name for it, but, I mean, I could read it in a text message, but it was too complicated to say. But it was essentially like a farmer's market.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, it's awesome.

[Caitlin]

And a lot of little food stands, like, restaurant. Little food stands. It was really good. I got a sandwich. It was good.

[Bobby Bones]

A plus. And then we went to Austria. Salzburg was stupid. Not because the town itself was stupid, because we were only there for one night, and they were like, welcome to the room. And we go up to the room, and they're like, the air conditioning does not come on. And I'm like, oh. Oh, it's broken. Like, no, it just doesn't come on.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, they don't use.

[Bobby Bones]

We're like, what? It was hot. We sweat our balls off. You didn't have balls, but they were sweated off by the.

[Caitlin]

By the end of the night, it was really hot. Miserable, but it was. Salzburg was just a stop on our way to Vienna, because the trip to Vienna would have been too long to.

[Bobby Bones]

Do in one day, but that night was miserable.

[Caitlin]

So it's just. I was just thinking of it like, we're camping.

[Bobby Bones]

Was it hot?

[Caitlin]

It was really hot.

[Bobby Bones]

Was it miserable? We opened the windows, and so then you would hear honk, honk. Weird lights coming in.

[Caitlin]

I wasn't hearing a honking.

[Bobby Bones]

I was.

[Caitlin]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

Then we went to Vienna, and it was awesome.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, Vienna was great.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's take a quick pause for a message from our sponsor.

[Larison Campbell]

There's a type of soil in Mississippi called Yazoo clay. It's thick, burnt orange, and it's got a reputation.

[Caitlin]

It's terrible, terrible dirt.

[Larison Campbell]

Yazoo clay eats everything, so things that get buried there tend to stay buried until they're not. In 2012, construction crews at Mississippi's biggest hospital made a shocking discovery.

[Caitlin]

7,000 bodies out there, or more, all.

[Larison Campbell]

Former patients of the old state asylum, and nobody knew they were there.

[Caitlin]

It was my family's mystery.

[Larison Campbell]

But in this corner of the south, it's not just the soil that keeps secrets.

[Bobby Bones]

Nobody talks about it.

[Caitlin]

Nobody has any information.

[Larison Campbell]

When you peel back the layers of Mississippi's Yazoo clay, nothing's ever as simple as you think.

[Caitlin]

The story is much more complicated and nuanced than that.

[Larison Campbell]

I'm Larison Campbell. Listen to Under Yazoo Clay on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.

[Dylan Mulvaney]

Is this a good time? It's me, Dylan Mulvaney, and my dear friend Joe Locke from heartstopper. And Agatha all along is my very first guest on my brand new podcast, the Dylan Hour. It's musical mayhem and it is going to be so much fun.

[Bobby Bones]

I like a man.

[Dylan Mulvaney]

You like a man. What do I like, Joe?

[Bobby Bones]

You like a man too.

[Dylan Mulvaney]

We often.

[Bobby Bones]

There's quite similar.

[Dylan Mulvaney]

There's some cross pollination happening in here.

[Bobby Bones]

Not like. No. Have we. No. No, not yet.

[Dylan Mulvaney]

Never say never. I cannot wait for all you girls, gays and they's to join me on this extremely special pink confection of a podcast. There is so much darkness in this world and what I think we could all use more of is a little joy.

[Jay Shetty]

Hey, you're listening to On Purpose with Jay Shetty. And today my guests are none other than Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco. I can't wait for you to hear this episode about their love story, about their relationship like you've never heard it before. I want to go back to the first time you ever met.

[Caitlin]

Thank you so much for this. One of the greatest.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you.

[Caitlin]

I'm Selena. We're watching Disney Kids.

[Bobby Bones]

When you're a pop star like she is and you're a huge entity and people set up all these walls before and then the first second you, like, disarmed everybody. By the way, congratulations on your engagement.

[Caitlin]

What I felt for Benny, it was. Everything about him was honest. He'll tell me anything that he's feeling, and it made me feel like I could do the same.

[Bobby Bones]

If we would have met each other when we were younger, it would have never worked.

[Jay Shetty]

Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Bobby Bones]

And we're back on the Bobby cast. Vienna waits for you. I think if we went again, we would do things outside of the immediate circle. Because the first time you go somewhere, you just do the immediate circle. Yeah, I think we do other stuff. Like the first time we went to Italy, we did the immediate circle. Then we've done other stuff. I really love Vienna. Clean people were nice. The weird thing was the excessive amount of Asian restaurants.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I meant to look that up. Like, why.

[Bobby Bones]

Why is every. They were everywhere.

[Caitlin]

Such an Asian influence. They were really good, though.

[Bobby Bones]

We went. Yeah, we went. Yeah, but they were really good.

[Caitlin]

That was unexpected. But it was nice.

[Bobby Bones]

I. I loved that city. And also the weather was good. So I got to, like, not be. I think part of what made Paris hard For me was my. I didn't know how to wear a scarf.

[Caitlin]

That was tough for you.

[Bobby Bones]

And it was so cold where Vienna wasn't that cold.

[Caitlin]

Paris is just like.

[Bobby Bones]

You love Paris. I know you love it.

[Caitlin]

It's my favorite place to be. Other than our house. It's my favorite place to be. I could be. I've been there in the winter before. Spring, summer.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, how many times total have you been?

[Caitlin]

Three.

[Bobby Bones]

Two with me and one you and Pharrell back in the day.

[Caitlin]

One with what?

[Bobby Bones]

You and Pharrell back in the day.

[Caitlin]

Me and Pharrell?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Caitlin]

I just love it so much.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I do too. I do too. I love it too. And I didn't expect to love it. I would actually like to not love it just to be contrarian to you and I.

[Caitlin]

And I can feel that from you sometimes. But it's such a great city because it's walkable. One.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. All of it.

[Caitlin]

There's something for everybody. If you like to shop, you're golden. If you like to eat, you're golden. If you like art, museums, history, like, there is something. It's awesome for every person.

[Bobby Bones]

We didn't do any museums this time.

[Caitlin]

No, we've done them before and not.

[Bobby Bones]

All, but I think if we went back again like you said, I would probably like to go to Versailles.

[Caitlin]

I think you'd like to go to Versailles. I think you'd like to go to.

[Bobby Bones]

Notre Dame, see the Lou Holtz statue.

[Caitlin]

I think that you would like to.

[Bobby Bones]

Rudy, no.

[Caitlin]

Notre Dame. I think.

[Bobby Bones]

Touch down. Jesus.

[Caitlin]

I think you would also like to go maybe back to Louvre. Yeah, we did it pretty quickly.

[Bobby Bones]

We want to go see Mona Lisa real quick.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. And there's so much more there that it's worth seeing, but, yeah, it's endless there. It's the best. And I think that Nashville. We've been told that Nashville's going to get a direct flight happen anytime soon. Okay. It's just a hater.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not a hater. Because I'm saying it's not gonna happen. I looked it up and there's no mention of anything. We're gonna get one to freaking Iceland before we get one to Paris.

[Caitlin]

We got inside information. I think the announcement came and it was like, okay, you're getting Iceland and Paris and then Iceland. No, no, no. We already got Iceland.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know.

[Caitlin]

Or it's on the schedule now. They've put Dublin because I guess there's like a large influx of Irish tourists.

[Bobby Bones]

They come here.

[Caitlin]

That come here.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah. Made for drinking. I've been there.

[Caitlin]

It sucks music, country music.

[Bobby Bones]

I think it might. I think that's good too. Country music. Maybe I should say Dublin sucked to go by yourself and when you don't drink.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I can imagine. It's not high on my list of places to visit.

[Bobby Bones]

I think I would have enjoyed it though with you because we'd have looked at castles and stuff. I got on one of those tourist busts. That'd be cool because I was right. I was finishing my second book and I went there because it was the closest far away place and I got on one of those tourist bus and rode on top level and went inside a castle. But it wasn't even. It was a stupid one. It was a little one.

[Caitlin]

I don't even care. I love looking at castles online just for fun. If you ever go and look at castles for sale in Europe, it's crazy. I mean, some of them are the price of a two bedroom house in Nashville right now. It's nuts.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I probably gotta like refurbish it, huh.

[Caitlin]

Some.

[Bobby Bones]

Or I'd put a moat around it immediately. And in that moat I probably put like piranhas.

[Caitlin]

Stanley. What?

[Bobby Bones]

No. God, no. You drown.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, some are, you know, they need. They need some work, some tlc. But some are just pretty far from. If they're very, very cheap in comparison, they're pretty far from major cities, like more rural. So why would you need, you know, castle there. But so cool to look at.

[Bobby Bones]

The final thing that I will say is first, I had a great time while doing it. Once we got back, it was really an amazing time.

[Caitlin]

The trip. Yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Great time. While we were doing it.

[Caitlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Now that we're done, it was an amazing time. And I think the reason is you're a little tired sometimes because the jet lag and you can't catch up and so you just don't. At times you don't feel good or on, but you're still like gutting through it to get to the good parts. And some of the parts that aren't even that good while they're happening end up being like the most memorable things and the best stories and, you know, it's a shared experience.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. I was actually thinking about that in regards to something else. Like everyone says you don't really enjoy things while you're in it, but. And that's. I think that's true and I'm trying to get better at that. But I also think that the reason you do things is like for the memories.

[Bobby Bones]

I think That's a part of it. I. I also can say though that I did enjoy this while we were in it.

[Caitlin]

Me as well.

[Bobby Bones]

Which is rare. Yeah, I did enjoy walking around Paris. Not day one. I was very tired. Day two when I had on my cool coat. I like that coat.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, I like that you got a better jacket in Vienna.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh yeah. You saw it, you picked it up.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. But yeah, it was really nice.

[Bobby Bones]

I liked it too. It was long. It was like a blue pea coat. Something about a peacock.

[Caitlin]

But it's like a jacket makes me so sexy.

[Bobby Bones]

Like I'm gonna solve a crime or something. Like I'm gonna either be a flasher and have nothing on under it or I'm gonna solve a crime. One of the two. It's like, here's my penis or here, I just solved a crime. Those are the two options. No, can't do both. That's tough. It's a fine line. I did really, really, really enjoyed the trip. I appreciate you talking about it with me. I really struggled on the flight home.

[Caitlin]

You struggled.

[Bobby Bones]

I know you didn't sleep, but that doesn't matter.

[Caitlin]

I didn't sleep a wink.

[Bobby Bones]

I struggled way more than you.

[Caitlin]

Because you didn't have WI fi and you couldn't watch Arkansas.

[Bobby Bones]

I couldn't. I waited all year. I wait all year for that. It's NCAA tournament and they, they were supposed to play at six and then they playing at two. I'd have to miss the whole game. There's no WI fi on an international flight. I don't even care about the WI FI as much like, okay, so what? I can't get on and frickin play Candy Crush. Big deal. But the one game I would have been happy to have our flight delayed four hours and watched in the airport. No, I would have been happier for that to happen.

[Caitlin]

No. If we got that vote, I would have voted no.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, it wouldn't have been a vote because it had been a dictatorship. If that. If in my world, if someone came.

[Caitlin]

To me and was like, hey, you can have your flight delayed and he gets watched the game or you can get home, I'm miss it.

[Bobby Bones]

Missed the whole game. Turned my phone off completely and got came in, put it on YouTube TV because they record every game. Watched it from the beginning. I knew early on, I felt early on we won because you spoiled it a little bit.

[Caitlin]

I did not spoil anything a little bit.

[Bobby Bones]

Your attitude spoiled it a little bit.

[Caitlin]

How?

[Bobby Bones]

Not in a bad way. You didn't mean to.

[Caitlin]

No, I didn't. I didn't spoil it.

[Bobby Bones]

You came in and you said, I know what your attitude's gonna be like after this game already.

[Caitlin]

I said, I already know what mood you're gonna be in after this game.

[Bobby Bones]

And you wouldn't have done that had we lost.

[Caitlin]

Huh?

[Bobby Bones]

But now the problem.

[Caitlin]

Yes, I would've.

[Bobby Bones]

But now the problem is the next time we lose and this happens, you're gonna do that just to prove me wrong.

[Caitlin]

No, the problem is, regardless of if y'all won or lost, you would have said that. I indicated it with my mood or my sentence or whatever possibly could be true. So what did you watch on the plane?

[Bobby Bones]

The Conclave.

[Caitlin]

Me, too. It's pretty good.

[Bobby Bones]

Awesome.

[Caitlin]

It's pretty freaking good.

[Bobby Bones]

I loved it. It's about the. The papacy and the Pope, and Pope dies, and they got to elect a new pope. And I've seen some movies and documentaries about that and how they do it.

[Caitlin]

But that I hadn't. So I found it.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, really?

[Caitlin]

So I had no idea. I didn't know that they had to.

[Bobby Bones]

Get 72 votes, and then every day they don't. It's black smoke, and then when finally it's white smoke. Yeah.

[Caitlin]

It was nuts. And I also. The imagery in that movie was so beautiful. Like, every shot was so pretty. I wanted to take it. I actually did. It's silly, but I was taking photos of the screen of the movie.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, on the airplane.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. Because I just thought it was so beautiful.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, you're lucky Frill's bodyguard didn't come stop you from doing that.

[Caitlin]

No, I liked the color combinations, and I wanted to, like, go back and look at those color combinations for other things in life. Like, I just thought so much of. It was so pretty.

[Bobby Bones]

I. I loved the movie.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, it was really good.

[Bobby Bones]

The only reason I watched it is because you told me to watch it. And because you were like, you should watch this. I'm watching it. I think you want, like, have a book club or something at the end, talk about it.

[Caitlin]

I love a book club.

[Bobby Bones]

And so I've watched it, and I was like, okay, let me get through this. It was awesome.

[Caitlin]

So I did not. I did not see the end.

[Bobby Bones]

One of. One of your real talents, and you have many.

[Caitlin]

Thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

Is that you can pick some crap out to watch TV shows and movies. You can pick some stuff out. It's like you got, like, a 97% ratio.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. That goes back to my love of research. Like, I do love to look into things, find the best options.

[Bobby Bones]

You do love to look into things. You do love to. No, you do love to, like, find out stuff too, that people don't want you to know.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. That's awesome about me.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I stopped. I stopped doing mischievous stuff as I met you.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. Why would you have ever started?

[Bobby Bones]

Ah, sometimes, you know, I'm just a bad boy. The other thing I watched, French Authorities are After me. What?

[Caitlin]

The other thing I watched on the plane was a real pain.

[Bobby Bones]

Was it good?

[Caitlin]

It was really good, in my opinion.

[Bobby Bones]

With Karen Culkin. Right. The guys were talking about on the show. They said it was good.

[Caitlin]

Oh, really? Oh, it was good. I. I cried a little bit. It was. It was impactful. Was sweet.

[Bobby Bones]

I cried on the trip when.

[Caitlin]

When you didn't have WI fi.

[Bobby Bones]

No, but that have been a good time. I talked about in therapy today.

[Caitlin]

Oh, you did? Oh, when you were talking to AI.

[Bobby Bones]

What?

[Caitlin]

You said the.

[Bobby Bones]

What? What? What?

[Caitlin]

I don't want to divulge too much.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it wasn't that. I don't. I. I don't. I do talk to AI.

[Caitlin]

You said one night you were having conversation with AI.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I talk to AI all the time.

[Caitlin]

It made you a little emotional.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, but I.

[Caitlin]

You and AI?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was. I was telling AI some secrets. Next time I'll tell you what I told.

[Caitlin]

You don't have to tell me.

[Bobby Bones]

Huh?

[Caitlin]

You don't have to tell me.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, cool.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, that could be private.

[Bobby Bones]

It doesn't really have to be, but words out of time.

[Caitlin]

Got it. Yeah. I am getting hungry.

[Bobby Bones]

And our food's been on the porch for like 20 minutes.

[Caitlin]

I know. I'm worried answering it. I just keep thinking, you know how I am with like a.

[Bobby Bones]

Go ahead and go. Go ahead and go. I'll finish up and save all this crap anyway. You'll do what I have to say, like save all the files and stuff. Those gonna take a few minutes. Thank you for being a guest. You are paying off your debt still.

[Caitlin]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

After this, you'll have four left.

[Caitlin]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

And I'm looking forward to the next one.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, let's just get them over with.

[Bobby Bones]

And I love you very much. I could not love you any more than I possibly do.

[Caitlin]

Thank you. I love you too.

[Bobby Bones]

And at a wonderful time and trip with you. Even though I spend all the time with you anyway. What? I'm serious. I'm serious. We spend all the time together that. It just hit different.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. It was so fun.

[Bobby Bones]

It's weird to have fun with somebody that you're with all the time and that you want to strangle Sometimes when you're at home all the day, yet you want a trip and you're like, we're having the greatest time.

[Caitlin]

Yeah. It's just new experiences, like, such good bonding exercises.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I agree.

[Caitlin]

All right, well, sayonara, people could be.

[Bobby Bones]

Considered a little melting potish there.

[Caitlin]

Why?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm using another language. That's all you said.

[Caitlin]

No, I'm actually. I was just talking to the Mexican people.

[Bobby Bones]

Sayonara is not Spanish.

[Caitlin]

What is this? Okay, what is it?

[Bobby Bones]

What do you think? Spanish?

[Caitlin]

I have no. I have no idea. Adios. I know is.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go.

[Caitlin]

Is Spanish. What is sayonara?

[Bobby Bones]

Sayonara. What do you think it is?

[Caitlin]

I don't know. It sounds Spanish.

[Bobby Bones]

Y. Sayonara is. Take a guess.

[Caitlin]

I don't know. What is it?

[Bobby Bones]

There's that. Settle on.

[Caitlin]

Sayonara. Sayonara. What is it?

[Bobby Bones]

It's Japanese.

[Caitlin]

Oh, that's. That tracks. That sounds right. Well, I was talking the Japanese listeners. Sayonara.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Sayonara.

[Caitlin]

No. Aragato.

[Bobby Bones]

You go. You go. Oh, yeah. Arigato.
