Next bit.
Co Wetzel
Now Bobby's on the mic. So you know what?
Bobby Bones
This. This is the Bobby Bone Show. Here we go on the Bobby Bone show now. CO Wetzel, CO when you were coming up, someone said to me, they said, hey, what songs do you want co to play? And I said, well, and I feel like, you know, this is, like, my house. It's my domain. I choose what happens. And I said, I will let KO tell me what he wants me to listen to. That's what I said.
Co Wetzel
Is that what you said?
Bobby Bones
That's what I said. I said, I will not tell CO what to play. CO will tell me what I want to listen to. And I feel like that's where we are in our relationship.
Co Wetzel
Yeah, for sure.
Bobby Bones
That's respect.
Co Wetzel
I appreciate it.
Bobby Bones
Nothing I saw Coco and I were in the same place guys a few weeks ago. Didn't matter what the place is. Well, you know me, it wasn't. And I could. I could identify KO from a mile away. I could hear there's football on the screen ahead of us, but I knew it was CO from a mile away. And my wife's like, I think there's pretty rowdy country singer up there. And there he was, Coach Wetzel. Dude, I'm a big fan.
Co Wetzel
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's really good to see you again. Is it weird to have wild mainstream success now?
Co Wetzel
You know, not a whole lot's changed, to be honest with you. It's kind of just the same.
Bobby Bones
You don't feel it because it looks different, but you're in it. So maybe you don't see it being so different.
Co Wetzel
Yeah, I think we're just kind of. We've been so busy with everything. It's just kind of. I haven't really stepped back and taken a wider view of it, but, yeah, I think it's. Nothing's really changed for us, except for less time getting the hunt any more.
Bobby Bones
Grandma. Any, like, grandmas coming to shows now? Are you starting to see, like, the.
Co Wetzel
Honestly, yeah, but they cut. They come to hear, like, High Road and, you know, Sweet Dreams and stuff off the new record. And then, you know, we have our rowdy show with all the older stuff and a lot of F bombs, and their eyes are about this big around, and, like, what do we get ourselves into?
Bobby Bones
They Start flashing you all the ground Grandmas get into it. Yeah, yeah.
Co Wetzel
And they're not like. They're not like biker grandmas, you know, that would flash us. It's like old, nice, petite ladies. And then they're just kind of like, oh, should we leave? Should we stay here? So it's kind of.
Bobby Bones
They probably just move to the back a little bit just in case they want to leave. You know, you have been doing this at a high level for a long time, but I would compare a bit to. Because I'm a big fan of red clay strays, and I've had. I had them in six months ago, and I was like, guys, like, I didn't know you existed. And I didn't feel like you guys weren't doing dances on TikTok, but like, somebody was smart enough just record you playing music.
Co Wetzel
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And so I became a fan through TikTok, but they were. They are not a TikTok artist. You are not a TikTok artist because you've been doing this. But do you feel that that has been a different instrument for people that like your kind of music to then love you?
Co Wetzel
Yeah, absolutely. I think, you know, the way everything is going now, like you said with the TikTok stuff, it's kind of. You kind of having what they call the overnight successes, and it's definitely a real deal nowadays. Hell, I think I get thrown in that conversation as well. But they don't see the 10 years that we came up and been grinding it out in Texas and all over the place. So, I mean, they can definitely relate to us, I guess, as much as the TikTok artists. But I don't know.
Bobby Bones
But I think TikTok artists is a weird thing. That's why I didn't want to put you in that club, because red clay strays are not that right. That's just somebody that my algorithm feeds me things like, you like Marcus King. Like, it's stuff like that where. Then I'm going, oh. And also I was like, oh, co's nuts. Well, that's why I was also warned is the only. I told co this in my house. He was the only artist I've ever been warned about coming to my house. And I'm like, what's he gonna do, steal? Like, why not?
Co Wetzel
He's gonna loot.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Like, what's about to happen? And then he came over and it was like. And sure, you know, I'm a little more muscular, a little meaner, but, you know, we definitely, like, after you left, I was like, that's my dude, my dog. Did he take anything? I don't. Not that I know of yet. I haven't done, like, a full inventory.
Co Wetzel
I was gonna say you thoroughly enough.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so I'm gonna ask you a couple questions. We spent an hour together, so I already know everything I need to know. But I got some stuff that I wrote down. This is a little. Little deeper stuff because I feel like you get pigeonholed into. That's just crazy. CO. Or. I know after spending some time, whether you, like, that's an intimate thing, an hour just, like, sharing live stuff. I feel like you're not offering up your deep emotions on stage, but I think you're a very emotional guy with many layers. So I wrote these questions down for you, Ko, because this is what I really want to know. What has gone really well in your life so far?
Co Wetzel
What's gone really well for me in my life, I guess growth, honestly, is just kind of from where I was, you know, starting out, you know, musically. It doesn't have to be musically, but I think for me, just kind of going through all the rough patches that I have in my life and then getting to where I am today and being able to look back on them and look back on the things that I did wrong and learning from the mistakes that I've made, and that's helped me musically as a writer, as an artist, as a person.
Bobby Bones
Question. Two deep questions with co. If your next five years were a chapter in a book, what would that chapter be about?
Co Wetzel
About how the empire started to grow. The start of the show basically, like, working up to this ultimate goal. This ultimate goal and then getting there and then kind of starting to fill out all the kinks, you know, layering everything out and being like, all right, step one's pretty much over. With how everything started to come to fruition.
Bobby Bones
Final intimate question with co. What makes you feel most alive?
Co Wetzel
Alone time. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
To recharge.
Co Wetzel
Yeah. Just to kind of reflect on everything. Like, since, like, I've been out in the woods a lot here in the last couple weeks, and so that's. I was talking to my parent or family the other day, and I was just like, you know, whenever I'm out in the woods and I'm out and I'm hunting or doing whatever, it just kind of gives me a lot of time to reflect on everything and kind of kind of reset everything and. Yeah, so I enjoy my alone time a lot because I'm always around people, even whenever I'm back home, you know, so get to spend time away from all the craziness and stuff that's kind of came. Came along with where we're at right now. Yeah, it's. It's pretty special to me.
Bobby Bones
So do you feel pressure to be co wetzel at times whenever you're doing private life?
Co Wetzel
Not really. You know, my mom, she always wants me to take her out to dinner and stuff. And, you know, I know, and I do sometimes, but I don't know. It's. Sometimes it's kind of overwhelming at times, but it's not terrible about it. Like I've always said, you know, I'd rather it be that than to have nobody listen to what I gotta say and, you know, just sitting at the house.
Bobby Bones
Your parents, you don't have to be specific. What did they do growing up, when you were growing up?
Co Wetzel
My dad, he had a lot of different jobs. He drove trucks. He's worked road construction for the last 20 years or so. My mom, she worked for the bank for a while. She's been with the school for, I don't know, close to 20 years now. So, yeah, just kind of skipped around on jobs.
Bobby Bones
I asked that to set up this next question, and I'm happy to bleep out the next question, but. And it was to say that you are not a guy with a silver spoon that was put in your mouth at all. Anything that you have, you have earned and you have grinded it out, right? And it's funny to hear because at times, you know, the same thing has been said in a different way about me. Wow, what an overnight success. And it's like, bro, I've been killing myself for 15 years to be an overnight success. So everything you have is earned. You trying to buy airplane? I heard you were trying to buy airplane.
Co Wetzel
Airplane, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I got a call. I got a call. Ask if I knew you. Somebody trying to sell you airplane? You trying my airplane? Okay, we'll leave it there. That's good enough. That's a good enough answer.
Co Wetzel
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
See, that's what I like. See, this guy's killing it, and he did it all. Like, he's just grinding it out. Yeah, I got a low call. Don't worry about that, though. That's all good. Yeah. So here's what I want to say. I want to say a couple things. First of all, by the way, who knew you were all Christmassy, man?
Co Wetzel
I'm a. I'm a man of mystery, man. There's, like you said, a lot of layers. That's one of them. Even before Thanksgiving, I think November hits. Dude, I'm into it.
Bobby Bones
Big at the house. When you're growing up, your mom make a big deal about it.
Co Wetzel
Yeah. Very, very big holiday. Mom's really big into it. My pops is, too. It's like. Like I said, we didn't have a lot growing up, but they made sure every Christmas that it was super special, you know? So big, big Santa guy.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Co Wetzel
Love Christmas.
Bobby Bones
Ep. Co Wetzel presents Wetzel's Wonderland, Chapter 2, the current song that is crushing. It is High Road. I mean, congratulations. About to be number one. No denying it. I know you're gonna play a little something. I appreciate you playing. I know it's early. If you guys don't mind, you want to introduce your player here?
Co Wetzel
Yeah. This is Josh Serrato from Gonzalez, Texas. Been with me for what, three years? Four years. We've known each other forever.
Bobby Bones
Four years. But to him, feel like 40. He's like, yeah, four. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Co Wetzel
Same over here with me, with him. But, yeah, let's do it up.
Bobby Bones
CO Wetzel's here. This is High Road. Whenever you guys are ready. Oh, I'm sorry. We can't post the live performance on the podcast, but if you go to our YouTube page, you can watch it there or maybe listen live.
Co Wetzel
Okay.
Bobby Bones
All right. Now back to the podcast. Look at this guy, CO Wetzel. And that's the reason you're an overnight success. You did it in one night. You did all that in one night. And that's awesome, co.
Co Wetzel
Thank you, man.
Bobby Bones
We mentioned earlier, and it was a joke because someone did say, hey, coach coming over. Be careful. And I was like, what does that even mean? And then again, a joke. And I love you, but you didn't steal anything. I just want to make sure everybody knows that he didn't steal anything. But there was a story about an H vac guy stealing your stuff.
Co Wetzel
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
What the heck happened, dude?
Co Wetzel
So every time I come home, you know, I'm a big watch collector, so I've got a couple watches at the house. And I get home, first thing I do, unpack. And I usually have. I usually take two or three watches with me on the road because we're gone for months at a time, you know? So I get home, and I usually. I've got my case. I pull it out, and I, you know, got them where they are, where I know they are all the time, Right? So I'm putting my watches in. I'm like, hmm, I'm missing one or two. And I've always got them, you know? Getting, you know, rewound or cleaned or something. So it's not normal for me to have them gone somewhere anyway. I'm like, I'm calling everybody. I'm like, hey, are my watches gone? Like, did I give you a watch to take to somebody? And they're like, no, don't know what you're talking about. So I started freaking out. I start calling everybody. Nobody can figure out where they're at. And as I'm on the phone with my manager, because he usually takes them and gets them cleaned, whatever, I noticed another watch is missing. I'm like, what in the hell's going on? So then I start doing like a clean sweep of the house. I had, you know, X amount of money gone. Just little stuff. I'm just like, man, this is weird. So I just. I put on Instagram or Twitter or whatever. I was like, you know, I can't stand a thief. And when that's going on, man, there's so many things going on through your head or whatever, you know. And I have get togethers at the house, but nobody, you know, really goes to my room. You know, it's kind of one of those deals. And so it's just all these things are going through your head. Well, the next day, the H vac place called me and I forgot that I had had the new digital thermostats put in. And one was put in my room. And the guy called me, he was like, hey, we. We fired a guy the other day and we had a suspicion that he's been stealing stuff. And we were like, what, it wouldn't be a couple Rolexes and some cash, right? And he goes, well, we've got one of the Rolexes. The other one is. We're working on getting. We don't have the cash, but we've got cologne, some Gucci glasses, some slippers. So this dude just went in and like, ramsacks my whole bedroom, bro.
Lunchbox
Wait, you have Gucci slippers?
Co Wetzel
Gucci slippers.
Lunchbox
I don't know if they're Gucci slippers.
Co Wetzel
But yeah, Gucci shades. Like, he just. I was like, how does a guy, like, walk out with all this stuff?
Bobby Bones
Hey, same bro.
Lunchbox
I know.
Bobby Bones
I'm not. I'm pulling mine out and I'll let you hate on them. Yeah, yeah, go. I stole them. They're mine.
Lunchbox
Sorry, Cole. I mean, Cub's vibe is like. I wouldn't picture him in that, but.
Co Wetzel
Just like, I'm just imagining. And then he goes through my liquor cabinet. There was. He stole like two or three Bottles of really nice liquor, too. And so I was like, I'm trying to picture this dude leaving my house with all this, carrying all this stuff because he was with, like, two other dudes, like, and it was just. It was mind blowing. I finally, you know, we got with the cops, whatever, Got everything back, and it was like, well, here's this. You know, they have everything marked. Cologne.
Bobby Bones
You got it back?
Co Wetzel
I got most of it back. I never got my cash back. But he pawned one of the Rolexes for, like. It's like a. One of one. It's like a custom Rolex, and he pawned it. I think he got, like, 1200 bucks for it.
Lunchbox
Oh, my God.
Co Wetzel
That's what I said.
Lunchbox
Wait, so can you go get it back, though?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's still on the property. Yeah.
Co Wetzel
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You know who takes the hit? The pawn shop. Yeah, dude.
Lunchbox
But I'm sure they have insurance for that.
Bobby Bones
Somebody's been around a lot of pawn.
Lunchbox
Shops, but, like, if you're a pawn shop and it's. Well, what did you say? It was one of one. But is there anything that would indicate that it's yours on there at all? Like, engraved?
Co Wetzel
No. I mean, I think we just hit up every pawn shop around there, and they're like, have you got a Rolex? Right. Recently, you know, and. Yeah, it was.
Bobby Bones
Dang, dude, that sucks, man.
Co Wetzel
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Nobody else will be coming to my house.
Co Wetzel
No.
Bobby Bones
After that, I'll be doing my own h vac on YouTube.
Co Wetzel
I mean. I mean, I have. You know, I got. I had pistols laying around. I had. And he just grabbed. Like I said, clone shades.
Bobby Bones
It's the walk.
Co Wetzel
Bottles of liquor.
Bobby Bones
Like, it's the walk out with that. Someone robbed my house once, too. Right. And I just can't imagine how they got out with all this stuff unless they're making multiple trips in and out. And I'm like, how ballsy to just go in and out, like, just grabbing stuff and, like, loading up and going back for another round.
Co Wetzel
I was. And it sucked, too, because, like I said, you don't want to. You don't want to accuse anybody, but you just start thinking, like, all right, who's been at the house? You know? And it sucks to ask people about it because you don't want to be an. At the same time, it's like, I'm just trying to figure out where this stuff is, you know? So. Felt very violated, you know, it was kind of really creepy, you know?
Bobby Bones
Well, I'm glad that's over.
Co Wetzel
Yeah. Load up. That's what you get and we found out who did it. I was like, I just want the address, you know.
Bobby Bones
That's why you don't go digital thermostat. Okay? You stick with the air conditioning unit in the window.

Lunchbox
I. Back and forth.
Bobby Bones
He wasn't Ninja Turtle as well.
Lunchbox
No, no.
Co Wetzel
Leonardo Angelo.
Lunchbox
Michelangelo. That's what it is.
Bobby Bones
Like.
Lunchbox
I don't know. I was just picturing the. All I was picturing in my head was that Da fingi code.
Bobby Bones
I'm sorry. Wow. Eddie wins again.
Lunchbox
Michael. And win another championship.
Bobby Bones
Let's watch. What happened.
Eddie
Amy and technology is something that I don't get along with, but Amy and technology is a complete disaster. And she is in charge of all these shows. You know, four things with Amy Brown and she does the Women of I Heart country and she always has these mess ups. And she had another huge blunder one time.
Bobby Bones
Amy did a whole podcast.
Lunchbox
No, the first 15 minutes.
Bobby Bones
You had to stop the whole thing.
Lunchbox
I did after 15 minutes.
Bobby Bones
Let me explain what it is before you.
Lunchbox
Before you jump in, let's defend myself.
Bobby Bones
Amy had a guest on and never pushed record.
Eddie
And then you have one where you did. Where only one person's mic was on.
Bobby Bones
Oh, that was a whole.
Lunchbox
Oh, yes, that was with Morgan.
Bobby Bones
She did a whole episode and never pushed record on the other microphone.
Lunchbox
Well, no, I just assumed the pod was up because we've been recording in there. And Morgan even said, should we test this out? And I was like, no, we're good. And then all you hear in the episode is me talking and Morgan sounds like this in the background. Yeah, she's good, too.
Bobby Bones
One, Amy never pushed record. And on the second one, she never turned a microphone on her guest.
Lunchbox
This is over, like, years and years and years.
Bobby Bones
And you know what? You're a good person. You're super lovable. But let's move on with it. Lunchbox.
Lunchbox
I don't even know what he's about to say.
Eddie
I don't know if she knows it or not.
Savannah Guthrie
What?
Eddie
But she recorded the Women of Iheart Country.
Lunchbox
This is not my fault.
Eddie
And she had pressed a button on the board where she also recorded it at the same time. 25 whistles is going on. So she is recording 25 whistles and women of Iheart Country.
Lunchbox
Ray, hit the clip on Women of Iheart Country. So fun fact about Lainey Wilson.
Bobby Bones
She actually auditioned for the game.
Lunchbox
Feel like they are flying by.
Bobby Bones
All right, so heck.
Eddie
And she turned that in.
Lunchbox
No, no, no, no, no. I saved it. The problem is I don't know what button syncs up with when y'all are recording 25 whistles.
Bobby Bones
But did I hear in your headphones?
Lunchbox
No.
Bobby Bones
Did you not have your headphones on? Oh, my gosh. You have to wear headphones.
Lunchbox
Stop. I was in Kevin's studio or Kevin's little setup, and he had that button on, and normally it's not on, and I was.
Bobby Bones
So it's his fault.
Lunchbox
No, I'm not saying no. I take the responsibility. I should have had the headphones on, but then I had heard y'all. I'm like, I don't know. I don't know what button to press.
Bobby Bones
So what'd you do with that audio?
Lunchbox
Oh, I redid it.
Bobby Bones
The whole thing. How long did. How much did you do of it?
Lunchbox
It was. Luckily, y'all had started 25 whistles towards the tail end of my recording. Thank the Lord. So I didn't have to redo the entire show. But, yeah, hang in there. Except for there was one specific thing that I wanted to hear that I needed to redo, but I didn't have her down because I just did it from my head, and I had to listen through y'all talking to try to figure out what I said because I thought it was funny.
T-Mobile Representative
That's hard to hear.
Lunchbox
It took me a while.
Morgan
I was like, wait a second.
Lunchbox
I was writing down, like, every other word that I said.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, Lunchbox. Thank you for.
Lunchbox
Yeah, thanks. Lunch.
Bobby Bones
Good job.
Co Wetzel
Lunch.
Bobby Bones
Good job.
Lunchbox
I had no idea he knew about that.
Bobby Bones
Loser. Did you know about that?
Lunchbox
Yes, because I've already re recorded it.
Bobby Bones
Loser.
Lunchbox
I know I am a loser.

Lobby Bone Show Bonehead Story of the day.
Eddie
This story comes to us from Bonafay, Florida. A man was really in some need for crack or some ice. And he's like, I don't know where to buy any. So he's like, I'll put that on Craigslist. Goes to Craigslist and says, I need ice or crack. Who can sell me some cop saw it and said, hey man, I got some where you want to meet? Met in a parking lot and he brought $80. Tried to buy the crack.
Lunchbox
Oh no.
Bobby Bones
What about the ice? Yeah, I don't even know what an ice is.
Lunchbox
Is that the same thing?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I don't know.
Lunchbox
It must be code for something.
Bobby Bones
I'm sure it's like a type of drug. But like, everybody knows crack. Not everybody knows ice. Unless he's looking for like a bag of igloo ice. A Bag of ice, crystal meth.
Lunchbox
Got it. Okay, so do some police officers. That's their job is to go into those things and search keywords.
Bobby Bones
I feel like Craigslist would be a safe spot. I'll be honest with you. Or, like, even the cops are like, you know what? Let's just have them have their place. All right. There you go.
Eddie
I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day.
Bobby Bones
I did not know there was a Christmas party. I did not know, and I don't know. How was I supposed to know? I look over Morgan's at her company Christmas party. Well, we got an email. I never got an email. Now, is there a chance that I haven't checked my work email in two years? I mean, I literally haven't checked my work email in two years. So did it go there? Yeah, yeah, that's where it went. But still, somebody should have been like, hey, we're having a Christmas party. But I did get invited.
Eddie
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Okay, cool. I'm good then. I wouldn't have gone anyway, but I just want to be invited to things. But Morgan. So what was the. Like, what happened? What was the party?
Morgan
Oh, yeah, so it was at JBJ's, which is Jon Bon Jovi's bar here in Nashville.
Bobby Bones
It's funny, there was so little talk about that opening, and if somebody said, does Jon Bon Jovi have a bar in Nashville? I'd be like, no. Mm. I mean, Luke Bryan does. I didn't know there was a Jon Bon Jovi's, but good to know.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So is there, like, eight? Is that, like, 80s memorial and stuff in there?
Morgan
Yeah, it's all JBJ stuff. And it's also, like, why are you calling it jb?
Savannah Guthrie
That's what it's called.
Bobby Bones
I know the bar, but I'm saying, like, that's what the bars call him.
Eddie
Bon Jovi.
Bobby Bones
Let's be honest. Morgan's too young, and we barely make the cusp of Bon Jovi. I lived it, man. You had an older brother? Yes. You had an older brother. Okay, so no one calls him jbj. Okay.
Morgan
Sorry. That's what the bar is called.
Bobby Bones
Yes. Got it. So there's a lot of Jon Bon Jovi stuff?
Morgan
Yes. Okay. There's a lot of Bon Jovi items. There's even a virtual Bon Jovi, like, in a TV screen that's kind of on there. And, yeah, you can buy stuff that's Bon Jovi related. There's music, like, live bands and stuff.
Lunchbox
So cool.
Morgan
Bar a lot. Like, all the other ones downtown.
Bobby Bones
And so they. It was just food and hanging out and stuff.
Morgan
Food hanging out. There was an open bar.
Bobby Bones
Oh, good for you guys. An open bar. That's cool.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Work night. But still, the fact they used to do these parties at 2pm at work. And we were like, what? We already left work. We're not going back to work to hang out with people that were already at work.
Lunchbox
I don't know that it was 2pm but it was like.
Bobby Bones
It was early. It was in the daytime.
Eddie
It was during the daytime.
Morgan
It was 6 to 9.
Bobby Bones
Highlight of the night.
Morgan
The highlight was Lunchbox wore his hoodie again.
Bobby Bones
Saw.
Morgan
And also I noticed that Lunchbox really likes to claim, one, that he loves free stuff and two, that he is like the party guy, right?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Morgan
He didn't have a single drink of alcohol.
Bobby Bones
He's not the party guy. He's not Mr. Vegas anymore. Ronald used to be. I used to be.
LifeLock Representative
No, no.
Eddie
I had a soccer game afterwards, so I couldn't drink. Cause I was going to play soccer.
Bobby Bones
So, Ronaldo, you gonna be okay at your game?
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Messy.
Lunchbox
I'm sure some people drink before reckless.
Morgan
They definitely do. I think they pregame reckless.
Bobby Bones
I think they do it while playing sometimes. Correct. Lunchbox used to be that guy. We're not taking away from that. He used to be that guy to the max. He used to be a guy that would destroy Vegas. But now he still wants to be known as Mr. Vegas, Mr. Party. That ain't it no more. Nope.
Eddie
I disagree. You know what I mean? Like, when you have a soccer game, you have responsibility to your team.
Bobby Bones
And I was the answer. You just said the word responsibility. That's how we know you old you. No responsibility out the window. It's just time to have time to party.
Eddie
Nigh on game day. Game day. You gotta be ready to go.
Bobby Bones
Are you playing for a scholarship? How was the part? Was the party good, though? Like, you feel like.
Morgan
Yeah, I mean, it was good to see everybody there. And it was cool that they had.
Bobby Bones
What do you mean? You see everybody there every day?
Morgan
Well, it was like all the salespeople too, and some of the digital teams. So it was more people than this group that we see here every day.
Bobby Bones
Okay, but did they spend some money? I mean.
Morgan
Yeah, there was a photo booth there too.
Eddie
There was free food. I mean, it was nice.
Bobby Bones
Rare.
Morgan
Yeah, it was different than usual for an iHeart party.
Bobby Bones
That's good. All right. Good for you guys. I sure wish I would have been. I was invited. Oh, yeah. That was awesome. Hey, what a heck of a time we all had. We will see you guys on Monday.
