Bobby Bones (2:36)
Broadcasting from the 59th annual CMA Awards, it's the Bobby Bomb Show. We good pits. We rolling we got George Burge. Hey, George, I got a question. Yes, sir. What the hell was that sweater you gave Eddie? That is. I mean, what a nightmare. Do you understand how. Take this, dude. Do you understand how much crap they gave me in that. Great. In that thing? Honestly, man, people pay a lot of money for a sweater like that. I know. That's my lunch. And to fill it out the way you did. Dude, you're so stupid. Dude, I really like that sweater. Like, I thought that sweater was so awesome. I walk in the room and they just laughed at me. They hate us because they ain't us, brother. Just don't. Just head down. You got it. So dumb. No, no, I'm sorry, dude. I. He walked in and I literally was like, man, we got dumb and dumb here. That's what they called me. I hope you didn't stop wearing it, because I never wore it again. Would you bring it back, just maybe for Christmas? I mean, does it, like. Do you wear that? Is that why you gave that particular one? That's like a. Yeah. Did you. That's limited. Hold on, hold on. Did you purposely. You were killing me. L. You're killing me. Did you purposely give me that sweater because you wouldn't wear that one. Okay, I wouldn't say wouldn't wear it. I would say hadn't worn it. Yeah, so. So you. You had a bunch of sweaters and you're like, you know what? If I loved it, I might not have given. It's such a jerk move. Dude, that's George. That's George version admitting that he gave you the one for the trash pile. I have a bread maker for you, too. See, now you're laughing at me. Stupid dude. I'm sorry, buddy. I did think you looked really good in that sweater. It's not true. Yeah, it is. How's life, man? Man, it's as good as it's ever been. We're having fun out on the road. Had a number one to start the year and hopefully another one. Getting close here. Going to get to go back to Texas for Thanksgiving, go watch the Longhorns play the Aggies. God help us. Hopefully we. We bring our egg. I mean, how depressing is it as a Longhorns fan to see A M be so good? They're good, man. They're really good. But I think we could take a little pride in ruining their season if we. If we come up with a win, too. Arch Manning really looks like he is growing into a real quarterback, so I. I wouldn't write us off. I wouldn't write us off for the game. My question is, though, it's not really ruining their season now because, yeah, they're in no matter what. They're getting made the playoff no matter what, so. But they'll. But the fans will be happy. And I'll say this, man. I. I don't dislike A M Like, I do some other teams. Like, if Texas. If Texas and A and M aren't playing, I'm rooting for A and M. Whereas, like, if I'm watching Oklahoma. Oklahoma, like, I don't care who they're playing. I hope they lose. Like, yeah, dang. Yeah. That's hardcore. Yeah, well, they feel the same way about us. That's what I'm saying is, like, that's what makes it good sports, you know, a little rivalry. Yeah. So I got a question. If you become rich enough, like, he's already rich enough, dude. Well, I mean, 10 number ones, you know, you're. Are you going to be a big booster to the football team? Oh, that's a great question. Like, are you willing to give your money back at the university? And how much? Yeah, man. Like, how much would you have to make to start being an nil booster? It's hard for me just because to be rich enough to be a booster at Texas, you're talking about 10 number ones. You're a peanut, man. Those guys got that oil money. They got the tech money. I mean, those guys are donating crazy, crazy money. So I don't know if I'll ever be that rich. And then if I am, I'll probably give it to St. Jude instead. Yeah, I don't want to be that invested, man. I'm just here to watch the game. I find it crazy that these people give their money. I'm like, dude, you worked for that. Like, it's like the alumni association hits you up. Alumni association. Let's get that out. They want you to give money back. I'm like, well, I paid for my school. Why would I give you my money now that I'm. You made me pay for my. I was getting calls before we'd even finished paying our student loans off, being like, yes. I was like, bro, I hadn't finished paying for my school. When did you pay those off? About two years ago. Dang, dude. How did that feel? Great. Great. Yeah. And then Carol wanted a new car right after that. Back at it, man. Yeah. That's life. I mean, here's my student loans. Is I paid $100 a month or whatever, and finally I had, like, $5,000 left. And the company. I guess I was more expensive to be on their books. And they just sent me a letter, said, hey, we've forgiven the rest of it. You know, you had to pay it back. And I'm like, yes, Playing the long game, baby. I played the long game. I probably played, but, I mean, I couldn't afford it. It's like, how do you do it? You won the race. I did. I won the race. I got it back on there. Hey, do you know Lunchbox is three hours short of graduating? Like, he never graduated. What. What course would you need? I don't know the name of it now. Like, it was. It was supposed to, like. So I walked the stage in the spring, right? And I got to get my. What was a diploma, but it was really just an empty thing. They called my name out over the. And I was in front, everybody. I hugged the president of the university, Dr. Ricardo Romo Utsa. Shout out, he's no longer the president, but Romo, baby. And. And I got off the stage, and I was like, oh, I'll take it in the fall. You know, it's not offered in the summer. So I was like, I'll take it in the fall. And then I got on with Bobby, and I was like, well, man, here we go. I mean, you made the right call. Yeah. You made the right thing, so. Yeah. Did Bobby make the right call? I would say it's worked out okay. Yeah. I would say he's doing all right. All right. Like, you would say you wouldn't go back, right? No, no. I mean, hours, though. Dude, it's one class. Can't you just do it on the computer and say, like, I graduated because you think just because calculus or something. No, screw it. But if it's like, I don't know, like, golf. Yeah. History of country music. Go take it, man. I probably fail that, too. Let's be real. But here's the thing. Back in the day, they didn't have online courses, so it was like, I was gonna have to go in person. Yeah. So I really haven't investigated it, really, since then, because I was just like, all right, man, I'm good. Do you have your diploma hanging up in your house? No, no, it's on the bus. I don't know where my diploma is. I have no idea. But in my heart, I know I did it. There we go. Do you have your records hanging on your wall? I do. I do have the records. So it's like, you have your. Your radio success on the wall. The college forget it, man. Like, yeah, yeah. Okay. All right. Yeah, yeah.
