Morgan
What's up everybody? We are here. It's time for another weekend. And this weekend, Eddie is joining me.
Eddie
What's up, everyone?
Morgan
Eddie over there about to make a joke.
Eddie
No, I'm not making the Saturday joke. I'm not going to do it. But today is Saturday.
Morgan
There's been a lot of tension and drama around here lately.
Eddie
There really has. I think people are just getting. I don't know. Maybe everyone has low T. Maybe that's what it is.
Morgan
Okay, you just threw that in there. I was never going to throw that in there.
Eddie
Well, I mean, I never thought low T was this big of an issue.
Morgan
Are you angry?
Eddie
I'm not angry, but I'm definitely not as happy as I normally am.
Morgan
Like you when we first met way back. Gosh, it's been like almost in Wichita. Ten years now. In Wichita. More than ten.
Eddie
When you were an actress, you were a photographer slash actress.
Morgan
I was a digital director and I was acting in one theater play.
Eddie
When I met you. You were taking pictures at origin. Idiot show.
Morgan
I was. Which I was doing basically what I do for this job.
Eddie
But it was funny because. And let me kind of like, I'll set the scene before you even walked in. Like, we'd never have anyone take pictures of our sound checks, like, ever. A sound check for us for many years for Bobby and I was go to the venue at like 3 o', clock, right? And then everyone gets their drums. Check the drone. Check one, check two. But for me and Bobby, it was like, let's practice. Because we don't ever practice. And so we start practicing and I noticed you, and I think Bobby noticed you. Like, who is this girl just taking pictures of us, right? And then we just started kind of messing with you a little bit, like. Cause you were just on stage or in front of the stage and we tried to make you laugh or whatever. But that's kind of. That's how we first met you.
Morgan
Yeah, yeah. It was this strange girl.
Eddie
She's supposed to be here because no one ever took pictures. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I remember making the joke too. Like, who let her in?
Morgan
And I was there because I thought it was good content and it was.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
And that's how we met. And then Eddie and I backstage talked. Then we ended up going to eat at Old Mill Tasty Shop for a sandwich.
Eddie
That was the sandwich place. Yeah.
Morgan
So good. Still there. And it was. It was good. That was our first hanging out. And then I was gonna go out with you guys and you guys, like got to the bar as it was closing.
Eddie
Yeah, I mean, that's how it went. It was always like, we'd play the show, we would. The show would end like what, 10:30 or something? 11. And then we would stay and meet everybody that went to the show. Like, anyone that stayed behind to meet us. We would stay and meet and talk and take pictures with everyone. So by the time we would load the truck, get back to the hotel, change, shower, whatever. Me and some of the guys, it was usually me, Grady, the drummer, Ahmad.
Morgan
Yep. I definitely remember you and Ahmad, because I'd met him also.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
And I think Grady was there, but I don't think I'd met him at that point.
Eddie
Usually it was just me, Grady, Ahmad and Brandon Ray. Usually the four of us would be like, you want to go get a beer somewhere? Let's go. And I remember we went to this place.
Morgan
Yeah, you went to pub house.
Eddie
You guys were walking out, we were walking in. I was like, where are you going? Like, we just got here. You're like, it's about to close.
Morgan
Like, it's time to go to bed, not time to come in.
Eddie
We were just starting.
Morgan
Yeah, you guys were. And it was so wild because meeting you guys there was the start of a whole bunch of things. Oh, yeah. It wasn't very many months later when I moved to Nashville and. And all of that.
Eddie
I didn't even know you were really going to move to Nashville until you moved. Then you moved to Nashville and. Yeah, because like, I think I just saw you in the office, right, like, already, like you'd already gotten hired. I'm like, what are you doing here?
Morgan
I think you saw me when I had been visiting for the interview and it happened very quickly. I saw the job opening. I basically came here one weekend, did a bunch of interviews, met everybody, and they were like, well, I think we're gonna offer you the job. And within a month, I was moving down here. It all happened very fast when it happened. So. Yeah, that tracks.
Eddie
Was that hard for you to leave Wichita?
Morgan
Oh, yeah. There were so many tears.
Eddie
Kansas, really? Because you had gone to Manhattan.
Morgan
Yeah. And I had lived outside of the state of Kansas. That was the first time. Right. And I was moving a 13 hour drive away at the time, driving with the U haul. And it was. It was rough. That first few years were pretty rough.
Eddie
Did you cry when you left?
Morgan
Yeah. Oh yeah. My mom still cries when I leave.
Eddie
When you leave the. Every. Every time.
Morgan
Yeah. It's interesting.
Eddie
Oh, like, because you guys are so close.
Morgan
Yeah. And I think it's just hard that my whole family is there and then I'm the only one that's just still over here.
Eddie
Oh, yeah. I guess. All yours. Yeah, everyone's there.
Morgan
My mom held on to hope for a long time. I think that I would just come here, work a couple years. I'd miss home and I'd go back.
Eddie
No different plans.
Morgan
Mom yeah, my dad's used to it now he doesn't.
Eddie
He.
Morgan
He got teary eyed the first few times and now he's just. He loves coming to visit. So I think he sees it as we get to go visit our daughter in Nashville and my mom is like, I want her around all the time, so come back. So yeah, she still gets teary eyed and it makes me want to cry. But then I just like have to be like, no, this is my life now and go from it. When I bought my house was her big realization of, oh, you're not coming back.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
Because before it was just an apartment. She can leave her apartment. She can, you know, go anywhere else.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
And then I bought the house and she was like, oh, she's planning roots there. This is not a she's coming back anytime soon.
Eddie
How did you end up on the show though? Because like you say that the move from Wichita to Nashville was so quick. Like everything happened so quickly. But I remember you getting on the show happen really quickly too because. And I can't even think of how you got on the show.
Morgan
Well, it was like I was 10 months into my job in Nashville. So even quick from me moving to Wichita, Nashville happened. And I had been talking with Rod who, you know, he's one of our bigger bosses and Jen, one of our other bigger bosses and just saying that I would love to work on a show one day. I don't know what that looks like or what that. If there's any but possibility of it.
Eddie
Weren't you already like on a show in, in Wichita? Weren't you on.
Morgan
I had done some on air stuff, but not working with a syndicated show or morning show of any capacity.
Eddie
But were you on air over there?
Morgan
I did some on air, yeah. And I did some on air for Nashville too.
Eddie
From Wichita?
Morgan
No, for when I was in Nashville in those 10 months.
Eddie
Oh, I didn't know that.
Morgan
I did some weekend shows.
Eddie
Really?
Morgan
Yeah, I was just dabbling. It was a lot of dabbling. Not. I never had my own like full shifts. It wasn't until I think at one point on channel in Wichita. I had some weekend shifts that I did on my own and I did some stuff with, if you remember, Tight
Eddie
Pants, of course, DJ tight Pants.
Morgan
Yeah, I did.
Eddie
How can I forget DJ type pants.
Morgan
We saw him which was.
Eddie
Do you, do you keep in touch with him?
Morgan
So we saw him in Austin when we were there for iheartfest.
Eddie
Shut up. What was he doing there?
Morgan
So he works for the St. Louis soccer team. He's doing Social media, digital marketing. And he. They were in town the same weekend we were. And he had texted lunch, and lunch was like, Tight Pants was here. And I was like, what? And so we ended up meeting in the hotel lobby.
Eddie
You need to give. I would have loved to have seen him.
Morgan
You had left at this point. You guys were gone.
Eddie
Oh, we had left. Okay. Okay. Saturday night.
Morgan
Yeah, it was after the festival. We met up with him, and he was like, you know what's crazy? He's like. I'm like, your. He's like, I love it because it's my claim to fame. You were on my show before. You were on this show.
Eddie
Hey, Ty Pants was kind of big a big deal, man.
Morgan
He was. He still is in Wichita. And I would go on and do, like, pop culture things. I'd talk about movies and all these. We'd do movie reviews.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
There was a period in time where we thought about doing a podcast together, like, way back then. But, like, podcasting then was different than what it looks like now. So it was wild. And then he ended up leaving and they moved to St. Louis and stuff. So things changed. But that was a throwback for me. Was like, oh, I had like a whole life that happened for a couple months there.
Eddie
Huge throwback. I hadn't thought about Tight Pants in a while.
Morgan
Right. And he, like, brought it all back.
Eddie
And my funny pant. Tight Pants story is we took him out one night, and because I think it was me and Lunchbox were out down there for like, some event or whatever. And Tight Pants was our chaperone. Yeah, like, he was the dude that was assigned to us by the station. And Tight Pants is way younger than us. And like, you're like. And we finished the event. We're like, Tight Pants. We're going out. Like, take us. And he took us to all these spots. He got so drunk. We all got drunk. Maybe he didn't get too drunk. I don't really remember. But we were pretty drunk. And I remember waking up. Cause we were like, dude, don't drive home. Just stay with us at the hotel. And he slept either in my room or Lunchbox's room. Or maybe we all slept in the same room. I don't remember.
Morgan
It's a little foggy.
Eddie
But I remember specifically waking up and. And being like, tie pants. Tight Pants. And I, like, looked at the couch he was sleeping on. Tight Pants. I yelled in the bathroom, Tight Pants. Like, he had left, like, somewhere in the middle of night. He's like, I'm getting out of here.
Morgan
He Got a little bit sober. And he's like, I'm getting out of this situation.
Eddie
And I remember telling him the next day, I'm like, dude, you freaking, like, one night standing me like, what the crap? Like, we gave you a place to stay in the middle of the night, you just leave.
Morgan
Did he have a good explanation?
Eddie
No, you know, he's a man of few words.
Morgan
He was probably just like, I don't know, man. I had to get out of here.
Eddie
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's like, I had to get home.
Morgan
That's so funny. Do you ever think about how much things are different now compared to that? The story you just told and you. Even then when I met you guys and you were playing at the Orpheum in Wichita, and that was a show that you guys put on, and that was a different time to, like, fast forward all those years to right now.
Eddie
Yeah, we're all just older and like. Yeah, like, that's never gonna happen again. Never. Like, and even if we wanted to say, like, we want to all, like, go out, like, because we go to Vegas every year, we go to Austin every year as a group, like, you, me, Lunchbox, Amy, everyone, right? We have our chances to go. And let's go. Let's, like, let's go out on the town and, like, party it up. We have our chances every year. Do we ever do it?
Morgan
No, everybody's too tired, dude.
Eddie
It's 11:30. And I'm like, all right, I'm gonna go to bed, guys.
Morgan
Hey, you know what? But though, to our credit, when we were in Austin, you, me, and Scuba all did go and grab drinks at the speakeasy as.
Eddie
But it's at the hotel. It was easy. It's literally two steps away from our hotel room.
Morgan
We could have easily been like, no, we're gonna go to bed. I'm tired. And we did it.
Eddie
We were going to, though, And Scuba was like, I have this reservation. We might as well use it.
Morgan
And we did. And we were still. We were down there for, like, two hours.
Eddie
I know. That was fun.
Morgan
And we had so much fun.
Eddie
One drink for two hours.
Morgan
Yeah, like, that one drink was strong, though. If you would have given me one for every hour and then maybe a third, I would not have walked out of there. Okay.
Eddie
It's funny, though, and I think people would think this is funny, but, like, we hang out with each other all day, like, five days a week, every day. But yet you put us in at a bar at 11 o' clock at night, and it's just the three of us, Yumi and Scuba. Like, and we talked about all kinds of things.
Morgan
And you would think the topics of that were wild.
Eddie
You would think we would have nothing to talk about anymore. Like we said it all, but we don't. We like have a good time with each other and same with any of us.
Morgan
Like, you know, like that's also because you would think because we hang out all the time and we talk for a living that we get it all out. But it's structured talking. We're talking about very specific things.
Eddie
Yeah. Topics.
Morgan
Whereas like humans in natural life just have a lot to say about everything.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
So we had a lot of other topics that maybe wouldn't have made the show or whatever that are just stupid.
Eddie
Yeah. They're not entertaining. But like.
Morgan
Yeah, they're important to us.
Eddie
Sure.
Morgan
And so we were talking about those things and it was fun. I love when we do that stuff.
Eddie
I do too.
Morgan
And. But I get it. I mean when we're in real life, especially for most of you guys who have kids, like getting away to go and do something.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
That's hard.
Eddie
Like I have nothing to do. Like I don't have kids to put to bed. Like I don't have to be up at 6:30 in the morning because they're going to wake me up on a Saturday morning to like make them, you know, breakfast. Like, wow.
Morgan
Yeah. We can hang out the time to go.
Eddie
Yeah. But. But we won't go hard. No, we won't do it. Like back in the day, I was
Morgan
gonna say, I don't know that I've ever, in the time that I've at least been on the show, I think the only time I've potentially seen anybody go a little bit hard was maybe Mike D's wedding.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
Was where I saw a little bit of that energy come out.
Eddie
Yeah. Man. He had bottomless margaritas.
Morgan
He did that.
Eddie
Snuck up on me.
Morgan
You Ray?
Eddie
Ray. Ray Ray was the one like hitting on Mike's mother in law.
Morgan
Yeah.
Eddie
And then I think he was also hitting on Mike's. Okay. Mike's wife's grandma.
Morgan
Yeah. Something. He was with all the older ladies.
Eddie
I think it was Mike's wife's grandma. And he kept saying like, come on girl, let's go to my hotel room, girl.
Morgan
While his wife was there.
Eddie
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And the grandma's like, oh, stop. Like, what are you talking about?
Morgan
He was dancing with her too.
Eddie
He was.
Morgan
There was a lot of dancing on the dance floor at that moment in time with Rey and any woman who dance with them.
Eddie
Were we all there?
Morgan
Yeah, I think we were all there.
Eddie
Everyone was there, huh?
Morgan
I don't know that Scuba or Abby were part of the show yet.
Eddie
Maybe not.
Morgan
I feel like that was when we had different people.
Eddie
I remember, man. I remember the margarita machine. I remember the dancing on the dance floor, you know, like. Like, I remember he played, like, the DJ played Selena. Like, bidi biddy bum bum. Like, that wedding was awesome.
Morgan
Okay, so do I get to see this side of you come out at your wedding?
Eddie
Probably not.
Morgan
Why? It's an open bar.
Eddie
I don't know.
Morgan
And there's gonna be margaritas.
Eddie
Are they gonna be margaritas? Said open bar, man. You weren't there for Lunchbox's wedding? No, dude, Lunchbox's wedding was crazy.
Morgan
Was it wild? I would. I mean, I've met a lot of his friends now, so I can see how.
Eddie
Dude, that one was like. Ray and I almost got kicked out of the airport on the way home because our flights were Sunday morning and the wedding was Saturday night, so we didn't sleep. We went straight from party to airport.
Morgan
That's a smart move, though, because then you're not missing your flight.
Eddie
Yeah, but we were still so drunk, and. Remember, we were wrestling in the airport?
Morgan
No.
Eddie
Yeah, me and Ray were wrestling in the airport.
Morgan
Your guys's after party was at the airport, and so.
Eddie
And a security guard came up and was like, you guys gotta stop or you're not flying home. Like. Like, okay. Yes, sir.
Morgan
Why were you guys wrestling?
Eddie
I don't know. I have no idea. Like, no idea why we're wrestling. And my wife was so embarrassed, like, stop it. Stop it. And then BAE was so embarrassed, like, stop it. Both of you all just stop it.
Morgan
Because it's not like. That's why I asked, because women don't. I get zoomies when I'm drunk.
Eddie
What are zoomies?
Morgan
Where I just have, like, weird energy, and I'm just, like, bouncing off the walls. Okay, I'm in, like, a really fun, drunk energy, but I've never had the desire to wrestle anybody when I'm.
Eddie
I don't. And I'm not a wrestler. Like, I don't. I don't do that. The fact that we were wrestling, it was bizarre. I mean, Morgan, we drank so much. I remember vodka sodas, like, nobody's business. And then they would do shots because. Hey, we're all gonna do a shot, okay? Hey, hey, hey. Let's look. It's our. It's. What's his name? No teeth. Keith's here. We're taking a shot. All right. Shot with no teeth. Keith, my dad wants to do a shot. Okay, nice shot. Like, it was like that all night.
Morgan
I don't even think you can do that at weddings anymore unless you have, like, insane liability insurance. Yeah, yeah, I don't, because most weddings don't allow shots. I've learned this.
Eddie
Oh, we were doing them. We were drinking normal drinks and shots in between every normal drink. It was crazy. And I remember, too. I remember, too. I got a charge from my Uber on the way to the airport that I. It was like a cleaning charge. I was like, this is stupid. Like, why wouldn't this. And I. This is like Sunday. The next Sunday night. I'm looking at my phone, you know, I'm already like, bad hangover, next day, whatever. Like, what's putting pieces together? Why did I get charged, like, 50 bucks for a cleaning fee? That's stupid. And then I read it, and it's got a note. It says ketchup all over the back seat. I'm like, there was no ketchup. Like, this is so stupid. My wife looked at my suit, you know, and all on the pants was ketchup.
Morgan
Where did you even get ketchup from?
Eddie
Apparently we got whataburger on the way to the airport, and I sat on ketchup packets and they were all over my pants. Like, okay, maybe I did.
Morgan
That poor Uber driver hated you.
Eddie
Oh, for sure he hated me. Yes.
Morgan
The fact you were only charged $50 was actually lucky. I think now you get $300 charged for, like, a cleanup fee.
Eddie
Really?
Morgan
Oh, yeah.
Eddie
Dang.
Morgan
Yeah. You. Oh, don't ever throw up in an Uber. I have never.
Eddie
I've never done that. You throw it up.
Morgan
My friend has, and I was with her and I. So it happen her before, and then it happened to her when she was with me where she really needed to go. We were on highway, and I. I took her jacket. I was like, you're vomiting in the jacket. Because I promise you, you'll thank me tomorrow. Yeah, so I just took her nice jacket. It was a fur jacket, and she just vomits in it. And I'm like, I know you hate
Eddie
me right now, but you're gonna thank me later.
Morgan
You will thank me in the morning. And she did, and she got her jacket dry cleaned and everything was fine, but it was about to be really bad. They'll charge you like, 300 every bid at 300.
Eddie
That is crazy. And I'm sure they have a flat fee. It's not like, oh, it was Just ketchup. We can do 50. Like, I think. I think at that point, the flappy was 50 bucks.
Morgan
Yeah, but. And they. I mean, detailing a car now costs that much money, so it makes sense.
Eddie
And I remember when we were. We were in Vegas, and this isn't me. A me drunk story, but me and Lunchbox were gonna go play golf. And so we woke up, like, at 7 in the morning. The golf course is, like, you know, 30 minutes away. So we're gonna get a cab, and we're out there in, like, the hotel, you know, the attack the cab line, you know, waiting for a cab. And this cab pulls up and there's a. The cab guy gets out, runs around and opens the back door. And as soon as he opens it, this guy just falls out and goes. It was like a movie. It was like a movie where the guy just opened the door and he just fell out and threw up. And we're like, dang, dude. Like, we're going to play golf right now. And these guys are just, like, coming back.
Morgan
Yeah. Vegas is another world. Vegas is an entirely different world.
Eddie
I know how to do it now. It's something that you have.
Morgan
It's been 24 hours, actually.
Eddie
You have to learn how to do Vegas, because if you go blind, if you're going like you've never done it before, like, it's gonna end bad every single time. There were times where, like, every time I went to Vegas, I saw the sunrise, like, every day.
Morgan
Oh, I got Vegas stories for you.
Eddie
Go ahead.
Morgan
Are you ready? Okay, hold on. We're gonna take a break.
Eddie
This is all about getting drunk in Vegas.
Morgan
I don't mean to do. I just kind of let Eddie and I go wherever this is where we're at. So we'll be right back. We're going to take a break, and I'll tell some Vegas stories. Hello?
Eddie
Hello, this is Malcolm Glebel from Smart talks with IBM.
Morgan
Today we're diving into a fascinating conversation with Stefano Pollard, head of fan development for Scuderia Ferrari. Hp. Your pronunciation is strongly American.
Eddie
It's more Scuderia Ferrari.
Morgan
I'm still working on rolling my R's, but what I was able to learn from Stefano was the importance of engaging the Tifosi, the Ferrari superfans in the digital age.
Eddie
Ferrari fans and superfans want to be part of something, want to belong to something. So they want to be part of
Morgan
a community, and ultimately they want to
Eddie
be part of a winning team. You've got Ferrari, which has a long history, design history, and now you're interacting in a kind of digital space. I'm curious how you balance those two traditions. When it comes to fan engagement, it's really digital technology. And digital channels, are they enabled to create a deeper connection with our fans?
Morgan

So my first ever Vegas experience was with 50 other girls. Wow. Our sorority senior class. That's where we went.
Eddie
Did you know every 50? Every one of 50.
Morgan
Yeah. We all lived in the house together.
Eddie
Dang.
Morgan
So you're. I mean, you. There's some you're closer to, some you're just, you know, light friends with, if you will, but you know them all, dude.
Eddie
How do you guys even walk through a casino?
Morgan
And maybe, and maybe I'm getting it a little bit wrong. I know we had a lot. Our class had 50 or 55. And I want to say, like, maybe 30 are what actually ended up going. So maybe it was 30.
Eddie
Okay. But even then, 30. A lot girls are walking through a casino together.
Morgan
Yeah.
Eddie
Like, and does every guy just go like, I'm going to try to hit on one of those.
Morgan
You draw a crowd because. And it's 30 young girls, right? We're 21 to 22. We're young. Young. And we got everything for free.
Eddie
All the alcohol, everything's bought.
Morgan
Yeah, Limo rides. Because they wanted young girls in clubs. And we were at so many parties, Eddie. I was so gone for all of 48 hours. There were moments in time where I don't remember life that weekend. Like, I thought I was on Mars.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
That's how much of an experience we were having. But the worst part about that trip was one of my friends lost her ID on the strip.
Eddie
Oh, no.
Morgan
And we're all trying to get into clubs. It's the whole purpose of why you're
Eddie
going to Vegas, and you need an ID to get in there.
Morgan
And my poor girlfriend, she was like, we have to go find the trip. I can't even get home if I don't have this to get home. And I was like, okay, let's go walk the trip. We started walking the trip at, like, 1:30 in the morning. By the time we walked the entire trip looking for the stupid ID that we never found, the sun was rising.
Eddie
Yeah. Yeah, been there.
Morgan
I was still drunk, still walking a strip looking for a stupid id. And I was so angry that I had just wasted six hours of my life looking for something we did not find.
Eddie
You never found it?
Morgan
No, we never found it. Her mom had to overnight an ID for her to get home. Thankfully, we still had one more day there. But then, like, we kind of had to, like, maneuver her into places she was of age. But, like, she didn't have her id.
Eddie
So you snuck her in places just so she can partake.
Morgan
Yeah, because otherwise, just sitting in the
Eddie
hotel room by herself.
Morgan
And, like, it was not an enjoyable experience for her either. And I think about that trip a lot. Every time we, like, go back to Vegas for iheart or something, I'm just like, this is a wildly different experience than I had that.
Eddie
Oh, yeah. My best. My best trip to Vegas ever was fantasy football. Bobby, me, Lunchbox, Ray, and Ahmad, and, like, I don't know, five other friends of ours.
Morgan
Okay.
Eddie
It was a fantasy draft, right? So, like, we're all going to Vegas. I'd never gone with this group before. Like, and Bobby, he was successful then already in Austin, and so, like, the room he got was, like, awesome.
Morgan
Were you guys all staying together in the same room?
Eddie
I think most of us were. And then, like, you know, four other guys would have two other smaller rooms.
Morgan
Okay.
Eddie
But so the. I mean, it was. We did so many things, like, one thing Was when Ray, like, we were all gonna do dinner one night and we had been drinking by the pool, like, all day. And Bobby's like, you know Bobby doesn't drink, right? So he's like, all right, everybody meet by the elevators at 7. We're doing dinner at this. I think it's called, like, the Hofbrau Haus or something. It's like a German Bavarian. Bavarian beer garden that could have gone
Morgan
a lot of different ways based on that name. So I was really curious.
Eddie
It's just, like, where all the girls dress, like German you. And, like, the guys are all dressed like lumberjacks or whatever. And they serve beer and they serve meats, right? So he's like, everybody meet at the elevator at 7. And so we all meet in the elevator. And Ray is like, he can't stand. Ray is, like, just falling over. He's leaning on the ashtray, you know, like on the garbage can. And Bobby's like, what's with him? Like, what's. What's his problem? Well, you see Ray, we've been drinking all day at the pool. And, like, Ray's gone. And he's like, you're not coming with us. You gotta go to the room. Like, so he was like, yes, sir. Yes, sir. And Ray was like, he was in trouble. Yes, sir. And he heads back to the room and, like, it's almost like we went and had our night. And Ray had his, like, night in Vegas at the hotel by himself. He met three girls.
Morgan
Oh, he did not go back to the room.
Eddie
He met three girls. And I hope I'm allowed to say this. He met three girls and. And he hung out with them in their room and they dressed him. And the only reason we know is because he was sending us pictures with these girls, like, dressed him and were putting makeup on him. And he was just drunk, sitting on the bed, like, look, I'm hanging out with these girls. Like, what are you doing?
Morgan
What was he, a Polly Pocket?
Eddie
What does that mean?
Morgan
Like a Barbie?
Eddie
Was he like, why? Of all activities, and next day, he was like, dude, this is the best dude. Just hung out with three hot chicks, man. And like. Like, but you didn't do anything. Like, all you did was get makeup on you. They played. They put their dresses on you. Like, what do you. Like, what did you do? He's like, it was fun, though, dude. What did you guys do? Hang out with. Just. You guys drink beer at a meat house? Like, we're like, yeah, I guess. I mean, all right, you know what?
Morgan
Everybody has their Own unique Las Vegas experience.
Eddie
Yes, we all did. And then we paid a street performer to come to our hotel room.
Morgan
I definitely thought you were going a different way. Again with that name.
Eddie
Have you heard. Have you heard the story?
Morgan
No.
Eddie
So Jesus. And he still there every time we go to Vegas, and we still see Jesus, he plays an accordion on one of the bridges. And so we had this great idea to give him. I think we all collected maybe, like, 300 for him to do a private concert for us in our hotel room.
Morgan
Why?
Eddie
I don't know, Morgan. We've been drinking all day.
Morgan
You guys come up with are wild.
Eddie
And the guy was like. Didn't speak a lick of English. He's like, yes, yes, yes.
Morgan
$300.
Eddie
He packed his accordion and went to our room. And the whole time we're walking with him. Like, once somebody's holding his accordion. Like, I'm holding, you know, his suitcase, whatever. And we're walking down, back to our hotel, and we're thinking, like, what are we doing? Like, why don't we just pay this guy $300?
Morgan
That is funny.
Eddie
And then we get to the room and we text the whole group, like, hey, guys, we have entertainment coming.
Morgan
Entertainment. That is not what a bunch of guys are going to a room thinking is happening.
Eddie
Entertainment. Meet us in the room in 30 minutes. And so everyone shows up. Even Bobby, he's like, what. What is happening here? And, like, you got the. Jesus, the accordion player. Like, guys, welcome Jesus. And he starts playing the accordion. He's literally. He doesn't even know how to play. He just goes. That's all he does. We're like, jesus, play something we know. He's like, I know nothing.
Morgan
So you really just paid him $300 just to show up?
Eddie
Just to show up. But you know what was really cool when he was up there? He was like, wow, I've never been in one of these hotels before. Like, the view up here is amazing. And he's. He'd been living in Vegas his whole life. Like, he'd been living in Vegas for so long gone. That's where he goes to work every day on that street, on that bridge or whatever. And he was, like, staring out the window, and he was like, look, look, I live over there. Like, my house is right over there. And he was loving every bit of it.
Morgan
So did he end up just hanging out with you guys more than he ended up being.
Eddie
Yeah, we were like. He said, put. Put the accordion away, dude.
Morgan
Like, I think we're good on that. We heard the three songs, the One song.
Eddie
The one note that you play over and over. We heard it, put it down. Just hang out wild. We gave him a couple beers. He hang. Hung up. He hung out with us up there. It was great.
Morgan
What's the most money you've ever made in Vegas?
Eddie
800 bucks.
Morgan
Okay, that's solid.
Eddie
800 bucks on one roll. And this was again, this is the same trip. And our buddy Steve had like. Our buddy Steve had bought a case of Miller Lights and brought it into the casino. And he took it to the. To the craps table. And instead of like drinking like casino drinks, he was just drinking out of his, like, Miller Light box.
Morgan
Oh, my gosh.
Eddie
Yeah. And he would just get a can and like, if somebody walks by here, dude, have a beer. He's. He'd been sitting there for like an hour. And then he. I don't know. I was just kind of watching him for like 10 minutes. And I was like, you know what? How you feeling? Is you feeling good? He's like, yeah, I'm feeling good. I'm like, all right, I'm gonna do a hundred dollars on that. You're gonna roll a 5? 5. A hard 10?
Morgan
Yeah.
Eddie
A hundred dollars.
Morgan
The odds are not high.
Eddie
No, it pays eight to one.
Morgan
Yep.
Eddie
So like, I threw the hundred dollars out there. I'm like, come on, Steve. Just don't roll a four, don't roll a seven.
Morgan
Was this on the craps table?
Eddie
The craps table.
Morgan
Okay.
Eddie
Don't roll a seven and don't roll a six. Four. It's all you. Anything else is great. Just don't roll a seven and don't roll a six. Four. He rolled. He rolled. I think it was like four rolls and he hit the hard ten. And we're like. We started yelling. I think it's. Yeah, I want 800 bucks.
Morgan
Did you win it though and leave or did you just win it? You lost it?
Eddie
Even worse. I won it. And I said, and then lunchbox rolls up like, you know, like clockwork. Wow. You was like, dude, let's go to the bar. I everyone a shot and bought everyone a shot.
Morgan
It was gone.
Eddie
Around in Vegas is like easily $300. So that went. I probably gambled some more. Yeah, that didn't last.
Morgan
It is so much fun. I will say I have never been a huge. Okay, so like growing up on holidays, we would sit in my grandparents basement, and all of my uncles, my dad, they would all play poker, then play Texas hold' em, blackjack.
Eddie
Fun.
Morgan
And they just play with coins and whatever. And I'd sit on my dad's lap and I'd play with them. And that was. And it was really just more messing with my dad's cars. Like throwing coins out, whatever.
Eddie
Or he'd tell you what to do.
Morgan
Yeah, Like, I was just listening. I just wanted to be part of the game. And so that was my relationship with games for most of my life. And then as I got older, like, I. My dad would be like, you only drop 20 bucks at the casino. You do more. Like, you're gonna lose a lot of money. And so that was a rule that I had. Like, I'd go to casinos and I'd. I'd lose $20 pretty fast.
Eddie
Really fast.
Morgan
Okay, well, see you later. I guess.
Eddie
Sometimes that's one roll, like.
Morgan
Oh, yeah.
Eddie
One hand.
Morgan
Oh, yeah. Or even being on, like, the slot machine five minutes, and then you're out.
Eddie
Yes.
Morgan
And so again, more relationship with it. And then it wasn't really until the cruise where I got introduced to more casino.
Eddie
You know why? Because you guys were winning.
Morgan
Oh, my gosh. Yeah, I was winning at blackjack. I had to play the blackjack tournament. And so I learned how to play there. People, the. The listeners that were so awesome and kept getting me to play craps. They told me the whole game, which nobody had ever taken the time to teach me how to play any of these games. And so now I'm excited for the next cruise. Cause I'm gonna go and try and play some more.
Eddie
I didn't play a lot in the cruise. I played for, like, you know, 20 minutes or something. But I didn't have the nights you guys had.
Morgan
Yeah. And you. Next time you will. Like, we would get done with all of our stuff we'd have to go do. And lunchbox would be like, we're gonna go to the casino. I was like, fine, I guess I'm coming because I wanted to hang out. And that was where everybody was. So then I just was like, okay, better. What. What's the saying? Like, give in or get out. That's what I'm saying.
Eddie
Get in or get out. Shut up. No. What?
Morgan
There's, like, a saying. There's like, you, like, give it in or, like, I don't know, get with it.
Eddie
When in Rome.
Morgan
Sure, we'll go with that one.
Eddie
Get with it.
Morgan
I don't know, man. I'm not gonna lie. There are some pathways in my brain that just stops.
Eddie
Oh, same. The same. And then. And it could be, like, a saying that you, like, everyone says, or you would know on a regular day Today, it's just not coming out.
Morgan
Nope. Like, something that I. When I would talk to a neuroscientist, she said she calls them, like, mode down pathway. That's not one that's mowed down. Currently, it's not. Right now, it really needs to be cut.
Eddie
You know, really needs to be tended
Morgan
to, but not right now. So whatever that saying is.
Eddie
No, I'm looking forward to that next year on the boat. It's gonna be a lot of fun.
Morgan
I know. I'm just. I love our outings when we have them. It's hard to make them happen in normal, normal, everyday life, but, man, when we have outings, it is so much fun.
Eddie
You're right. And when Amy. Like, we make fun of Amy when she says, you know, like, oh, I'd love a show trip. Honestly, it'd be fun. Like, it'd be fun. It's hard to get us all on the same schedule. It would have to be mandatory. Really. Like, it would have to be like, this is a mandatory show road trip. Like, then we would make it happen. But if it's, like, voluntarily, like, when
Morgan
we all went to Atlanta on the bus, so much fun.
Eddie
That was awesome.
Morgan
And we always have so many stories because we're hanging out with each other.
Eddie
I know.
Morgan
And a lot of things are happening, and everything's up for grabs, and we
Eddie
realized that we're kind of still a little bit fun. Like, we're all fun.
Morgan
Count yourself. And I'm still very fun.
Eddie
Oh, man. I don't feel fun. Like, I really don't, because, like, the. The daily grind of just, like, disciplining kids and raising kids kind of, like. And I guess I have it harder because I have four boys, you know? And, like, they just kind of are all over the place if I just let them just be them, which is fine. I can. It's just, like, ends up just being like, all right, well, I got to pick up that mess, and I'm scared they're gonna break that, and they're probably gonna break whatever that. Like, I just end up not having fun. But I'm working on it.
Morgan
I was gonna say, you need to adapt the lunchbox dad lifestyle, not give a crap. He does not care.
Eddie
No, man, I'm telling. I've seen him in the wild, and his kids just roam. Roam?
Morgan
Yeah.
Eddie
Like, they can be in the parking lot, and he has no freaking clue.
Morgan
Yep. He is very free range.
Eddie
And I guess, like, you know, he's got something there because, like, if they're hungry, they'll come Back to you.
Morgan
They will.
Eddie
You know, they're bored. They'll come back to you.
Morgan
One of them figured out how to walk his way home. So it does.
Eddie
Oh, my gosh.
Morgan
You know, it figures itself out, but I know it's hard.
Eddie
Yeah. So. But. But like, when I. You take me out of that scenario, like when we were in Key west, dude, how much fun was that?
Morgan
Oh, so much fun. We had the best day.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
We're riding around on a golf cart. We're all hanging out on a beach.
Eddie
There are, like. And we've done. We've done, like, bits on this, but, like, you know, where. What memories, like, take you to, like, a good. Give you, like, a good memory, a good taste in your mouth. Right? Like, yeah. I think about that. There was a trip that my wife and I took to Scottsdale. Think about it all the time. We went to Puerto Rico. My wife and I think about it all the time. That beach in Puerto Rico, like, it lives in my mind rent free. Like, if I'm having a bad day, I go there in my mind, and I love it. Our trip to our day in Key West, I think about it all the time. Like, that was so much freaking fun. Fun.
Morgan
I know. This is why I have such a desire to travel. I have those moments, and I'm much like you. All of my moments that I think of are traveling.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
I'm. I'm nowhere where my feet are perfectly. Like, a lot of people could say, okay, well, this is where I'm happiest. And of course, I'm happy at home. I have a safe space. Great. But when I really think about, like, when I'm truly the most happy is when I'm, like, out exploring in a new place, whether it's a beach or a mountain or just. Just cool views.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
That's what I think about the most.
Eddie
But I wonder if it's because it's so spaced out, you know, like, would we. Would we enjoy it as much as if it was just every day?
Morgan
Yeah.
Eddie
And I don't know because, like, we've toured. We've toured, right? Like, and where we're in one city, next city, next city, next city. And it's always just like, oh, man, I'm ready to go home.
Morgan
But that's also because you're working and all of that.
Eddie
True.
Morgan
You know, And I wonder if you have a little bit more of a relaxed lifestyle if you. The career isn't the main goal. Right. And you travel more, you live a little bit more, work a little bit less and money and having things isn't as much of a priority.
Eddie
That's the goal, Morgan. You know, that's the goal.
Morgan
I mean, I feel like when you have that type of lifestyle, it's, it's worth it for sure. It's. It's also a big reason why I don't know that, that I want to have kids because I think it's gonna take me my entire life to see a lot of the world. And having kids, as you can attest to, changes that a lot. To travel, to be able to go and do things. You're talking all of them about it right now. It greatly changes your life.
Eddie
I think Disney was, was a memory though. Like, I did have a. I believe that I've had a good memory at Disney with my family.
Morgan
Well, and I think you'll have really great ones as they continue to get older.
Eddie
And it becomes, I can't wait.
Morgan
These cool. But for, you know, how many years of their life where it wasn't. It's hard.
Eddie
Like when I get to take my boys to Vegas. That's gonna be awesome. Like, that's gonna be so much fun.
Morgan
You're all drinking a beer and we're
Eddie
all gambling at a table together, you know, and. Or they were checking like, hey, how much did he win? Like, are you up? Are you down? Like, I remember that with my dad. I mean, that was so much fun.
Morgan
Do you think you will take them when they all turn 18? To Mexico?
Eddie
To Mexico?
Morgan
Because I feel like that's kind of a rite of passage just to go drink where the legal age is 18. Because I did that when I turned 18.
Eddie
No, I, I don't think so. I don't know yet. But that to me was always so weird. Like, you gotta understand, I, I grew up seven miles north of Mexico and as soon as I turned, you know, 16, and I could drive or a friend of ours could drive, like, we would just go to Mexico and go drink.
Morgan
Yeah. So it was much more common for you.
Eddie
And that's crazy. Like, I look at, I have an 18 year old now, you know, like, and I'm like, wow, if he were me, he would have already gone to Mexico like 30 times and gotten drunk, you know, like, and I don't know, like the fact that we live in Tennessee and it's not that easy for him kind of makes me thankful for that.
Morgan
Yeah. But also, I think it's a cool experience for them to have. If it's something they want, it's something that they're responsible about.
Eddie
But what Are the laws? Because I remember, you know, being in a restaurant with my parents and my parents ordering me a drink when I was, you know, 18.
Morgan
I think a lot has changed since then.
Eddie
Oh, so now I can't.
Morgan
There may have been. I could be making this up, but I feel like once upon a time there was a law that if you were 18, your parents could order a drink with their supervision.
Eddie
You could have a drink with it 100%. Because. Because I lived that.
Morgan
I believe that was the thing. I don't know for how long, and I don't know if it still applies anywhere, but not that I'm aware of.
Eddie
Wish we had Mike with a Google.
Morgan
I know I could Google it right now.
Eddie
No, it's not worth it.
Morgan
But I think it would be fun for you to go and have that. Because I loved. When I was on my senior trip, my parents said I could take one friend. And for my senior trip in high school, they took me and my friend on a cruise. One of the stops was in Mexico. We went to Senior Frog, and we just had a whole day.
Eddie
Well, that sounds dangerous.
Morgan
And my parents were supervising us. Right. They weren't letting us go and do it by ourselves. They were there. But it was such a cool experience. And I gotta have it with my parents.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
On the ship. And. And just that whole thing, it was a cool memory that I think about a lot.
Eddie
So it's gonna be interesting.
Morgan
I was curious if you do.
Eddie
It's just tricky with my. With my situation because, like, there are. There are a couple of them that, like, I hope that they never do drink because I don't know what it's gonna do.
Morgan
That's fair.
Eddie
You know what I mean?
Morgan
Well, I think also every parent would hope that their kids don't ever drink because alcohol is not good for you. I know we've talked about it a lot. Alcohol really is not good for you.
Eddie
Right. But. But there are some people like me. Like, I've been able to drink alcohol my whole life and not have an issue with it. Like, not one issue. Like, I. I have one drink, take two sips and never. And put it down and never drink from it again or throw it away. No problem. There are family members that I have that they can't have one sip or it's over one sip, and it's like, all right, get ready for a night, because it's about to get crazy.
Morgan
Yeah.
Eddie
You know, so, like, that's always such a weird thing. Like, some people can. Some people just can't do it. So I don't know. That's what I worry about my kids. Like. Like, I. And I don't know which ones they are, you know, because we definitely have that gene in my family. For sure. We have that gene in my family. So I don't know. I'm kind of like, maybe we take it to Mexico to find out. And then we're like, all right, now we know which ones. Can't do it.
Morgan
Yeah. But I guess once you introduce it, then it's just all.
Eddie
Then it's over. Right. Right. I don't know. It's a weird. It's a weird thing.
Morgan
No, that's true. And that's a huge thing. And like I said, the. The trend of that has changed, and alcohol really isn't bad or is. Isn't good. We've learned a lot of things about it now than what we did then. I know even I don't drink alcohol in the way that I used to, but I don't know.
Eddie
When did that happen for you, with
Morgan
all my health stuff? Yeah, I stopped drinking completely, so.
Eddie
Yeah, that's. That's interesting too. Like, once you get to a certain age or whatever, the health becomes like. Like, you know, I remember a doctor being like, hey, you need to, like, chill a little bit. How often do you drink? Oh, like, I don't know. How about about 12 beers a week? You know, like. Yeah, that's. You should bring that down a little bit.
Morgan
Yeah.
Eddie
You know, it's like, you don't even think about that stuff.
Morgan
Well, again, because it was very heavily taught to us to do it. That was, like, the cool thing to do.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
And it was okay. It was okay to do it versus cigarettes or tobacco.
Eddie
Yeah. I was normalized.
Morgan
Yeah. But now that is not the case anymore, so. Okay, we need to answer some listener questions.
Eddie
Man, we went all the way around, though. Like, we went everywhere from, like, crazy party days to, like, Vegas, baby, to, like. Yeah, I don't really drink as much anymore.
Morgan
Right. That's the evolution of life, though, all the time.
Eddie
It really is.
Morgan
It's crazy. We had to go all the way around. That's what we really do, always do. We go through all of them. Okay, we're gonna take a quick break.
Eddie
Okay.
Morgan
And we'll be back. We're gonna answer some questions. Hello?
Eddie
Hello, this is Malcolm Glebel from Smart Talks with IBM.
Morgan
Today we're diving into a fascinating conversation
Eddie
with Stefano Pallard, head of fan development
Morgan
for Scuderia Ferrari hp. Your pronunciation is strongly American.
Eddie
It's more Scuderia Ferrari. I'm still working on rolling my R's,
Morgan
but what I was able to learn from Stefano was the importance of engaging the Tifosi, the Ferrari superfans in the digital age.
Eddie
Ferrari fans and super fans want to be part of something, want to belong to something, so.
Morgan
So they want to be part of a community and ultimately they want to
Eddie
be part of a winning team. You've got Ferrari, which has a long
Morgan
history, design history, and now you're interacting
Eddie
in a kind of digital space. I'm curious how you balance those two traditions. When it comes to fan engagement, it's really digital technology.
Morgan
And digital channels are enabled to create
Eddie
a deeper connection with our fans.

Morgan
Craziness of life. Hopefully it's a weekend. People are out having fun.
Eddie
Oh, yeah. Saturday.
Morgan
So, all right, let's. Let's get into some listener questions. Erin in New Hampshire wants to know if you do anything special for your wife in daily life since she has to live with five dudes.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
I think he's just now realizing he should.
Eddie
No, no, she. She definitely mentions. Mentions it a lot that she's around five dudes all the time. I think that we are making this. Isn't the answer really that, like, do I do. Um, yes. Like, we'll get her a massage sometimes. Like, you know, we'll buy her a gift card to a massage randomly. I've done that before. Sometimes I tell her, like, hey, do you need to get your nails done? Like, you should do it this week
Morgan
and give her a break.
Eddie
And then I would say about twice or three times a month, she goes to dinner with the girls.
Morgan
I love that.
Eddie
Okay, so. So, like, that's kind of. And she builds that in. I don't tell her to do that. She's just like, yeah, me and the girls are gonna go to movie. Let it rip. And then, you know, it's crazy, though, the boys, like, if she's gone more than, like, an hour and a half or two hours, they're like, when's mom come back? Like, where's mom at? Yeah, because they're such mama's boys for sure.
Morgan
But are all of them.
Eddie
Yeah. Not the oldest. The oldest. Him and I can hang out, like, just watch movies all day, listen to music, talk about music, watch sports.
Morgan
Do you think the other three, it's related to age more than it is?
Eddie
Probably.
Morgan
I feel like they all. Don't get me wrong. I think they all will be. I think every boy has the mama's boy trait.
Eddie
There's a connection for sure that, like, I mean, it's. It's their. It's their mom. It's their. It's the woman in their life.
Morgan
Well, it's no different than daddy's girls.
Eddie
Right?
Morgan
There's a connection in those situations for sure.
Eddie
But. But something that is not super special, but we're trying to do, because she lives with five boys, is not to fart as much. Like, we are making a conscious effort because she has made it very clear that she does not like it.
Morgan
I mean, that's fair. That's a lot of fumes happening in one house all the time.
Eddie
And, like, the. We're. I mean, we're constantly farting. Like, everyone at the dinner table, it's forbidden. But, like, somebody always slips every night. And we're just like, dude, stop. Sometimes it's me. And then we're just like, we're sorry. Like, what do you want us to do? Go to the bathroom? Yes, go to the bathroom next time. Like, we're gonna get in the bathroom the whole time, Then I might as well take my food in there. It's like, okay.
Morgan
Oh, my God. I. Okay. The fact that you guys are consciously now making that effort.
Eddie
We're trying. We're trying.
Morgan
Okay.
Eddie
Yes.
Morgan
Well, because it is memorial weekend, Rick from Oregon wants to know what's on the barbecue menu for the holiday weekend.
Eddie
Oh, man. That's a good question, I think.
Morgan
Or are you doing anything?
Eddie
I think. Yeah. Almost every weekend, I'm kind of assigned to do something at this point. Point. Like, it kind of goes with the weekend. Like, all right, Saturday, what do you. What are you cooking?
Morgan
That's your day to do something.
Eddie
Yeah. Because every. Every most days of the week, my wife cooks dinner. Like, if for some reason I have an easy week or, like, an easy day where I don't have a lot going on, I'll be like, you know what? I'm gonna. I'll grill something tonight.
Morgan
Yeah.
Eddie
But it's pretty rare. Saturday is kind of my time to do it. And I would think that we haven't done fajita tacos in a while, which is, like, my go to, but I feel like that's gonna happen this weekend.
Morgan
That's what you're feeling right now?
Eddie
Haven't really decided, but I think that that's gonna be it.
Morgan
That's fun.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
That was a big thing. Honestly, I remember a lot growing up. My dad would always grill, and I'd always eat corn on the cob. It was, like, my favorite thing because they would always obviously eat meat. And I was eating cord on the cob.
Eddie
He would put it on the grill. Yeah, the best.
Morgan
It's the best there is. So easy butter corn on the cob.
Eddie
So easy to do. If people don't realize that, like, just putting the corn on the cob, you can do it without wrapped, but sometimes when you wrap it and you put the butter in there and, like.
Morgan
And that's what he does.
Eddie
Dude, that's so good.
Morgan
All the seasoning, it had salt and pepper on it. And then I'd eat green beans, and I get a baked potato. It would. Baked potato. It was also on the grill.
Eddie
Put in foil in there. Like.
Morgan
Yeah, because he would grill once, like, every weekend, and it was our thing.
Eddie
What was his thing to grill?
Morgan
He always had chicken. Chicken was a big thing for him.
Eddie
So we do, like, chicken breasts, or would he do, like.
Morgan
Yeah, I think they're. Yeah. Because they were like, grilled chicken breasts. But he'd do seasonings on them, and he'd marinate them in different ways and. And all this stuff. And then I got excited about all the sides that he'd do, and he'd always get garlic bread. That was my favorite.
Eddie
That's good. How would you handle the smells? Like, I don't.
Morgan
It never really bothered me because it's crazy. It doesn't bother me when people do it now.
Eddie
You know, man, if I smell like. Like a good smell of food cooking, I'm just like, whatever it is, I want it. Like, I will eat it right now.
Morgan
That's how I feel about dessert, though. So, yeah, okay. Maybe that's just where mine comes in. Like, if I smell a cookie or brownie or ice cream or, like, any pastry, I'm. I'm like, give me all of that.
Eddie
So good.
Morgan
And maybe because I don't like meat, that's also why. I don't know. But sometimes they smell good.
Eddie
Did I ever tell you about my neighbor in. In, like, in Austin? He was a vegan, I think.
Morgan
Oh, yeah. And he smelled you cooking and came over.
Eddie
No, this is months. Months of me grilling. And he would just come over and be like, whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you making? And be like, oh, steaks. You want something? He's like, nah, man, I can't eat that. And like, two months later, he's just like, screw it. Just give it. Give it to me. I haven't had meat in, like, I don't know how many years, but I want it. Give it to me.
Morgan
Was he, like, vegan by choice? I can't remember.
Eddie
I don't remember.
Morgan
That's so funny.
Eddie
But he was so like, nah, dude, I don't eat meat. Like, don't eat me.
Morgan
Can't do that. But it smells really good.
Eddie
He just couldn't take it after two months.
Morgan
Oh, my gosh. Okay. Why are you so apprehensive to go to a doctor, even if just for a wellness check? Nina in Florida.
Eddie
Oh, I'm not. I go to doctor all the time. I think the. I'm a huge believer in natural wellness first. And if it's something that can't be done, like. Like, my gut. We've talked about autoimmune, gut, whatever. I've seen it over and over and over and over with me for the past, I don't know, 15 years. I've seen when I change my lifestyle how everything gets better, and then I just go back to, oh, I've had a hard week. Give me ice cream and pizza. Oh, give me Cheetos. And I can't have pizza without a Coke. And then next thing you know, I'm just. I'm back.
Morgan
You're spiraling.
Eddie
And I know that, like, I know that when I eat clean, my body is like, thank. Like, thank you. I can function. So part of me is like, if I go to a doctor just to get, like, whatever I need done, I. I'm just making something else do that for me when I could do it myself.
Morgan
Yeah.
Eddie
You know what I mean?
Morgan
It is true. Your diet heavily influences your lifestyle.
Eddie
Right now. If I have cancer, I'm going to go to the doctor and get this taken care of however I need to. You know what I mean? But if there's something that I can do naturally first, which I know. It's been proven to me. I can see it. I listen to my body. My body's saying, like, stop putting that crap in me. But I can't help myself sometimes.
Morgan
Yeah. Well. And again, I have said this, and I will hit the nail on it every time, but it. The world does not make it easy to be healthy.
Eddie
No.
Morgan
The convenience of it, it is. We are in a society that does not want you to be the healthiest version of yourself.
Eddie
Correct.
Morgan
Unfortunately. It's just we've grown up on it, and so that's where we are now. And so it makes it really difficult to do that every day, especially if you have kids, if you have a life that. That is not your entire life. You know, if you're a fitness instructor or a dietitian, you might be a little bit easier.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
But to do that, it makes it really hard.
Eddie
And it's expensive.
Morgan
Yeah.
Eddie
Very expensive.
Morgan
There's nothing about being healthy right now that's easy.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
So even though you know what the answer is, it's hard to make it happen. It's hard to make it happen for me.
Eddie
And I feel myself. I feel, too. If I said, like, you know what? Ass. Screw it, just give me the pill, I would just take the pill and then still eat like crap. And I wouldn't be doing my body. I wouldn't be doing it the way I'm supposed to be doing it.
Morgan
Yeah. So you want to use it as a last resort.
Eddie
I really do. And it's like. And again, I'll probably fall back into it. You know, I mean, I've been doing this for so long.
Morgan
Yeah. And it's okay because sometimes you. Your body is saying, I need this right now because life is hard.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
And sometimes I call it soul food versus, like, body food. A lot of times I 90% of my life. I need body food. 10%. I'm gonna need that soul food.
Eddie
Soul food, man. It's been a rough week.
Morgan
Sometimes you just got margarita and you'll see me do it. And some people be like, I thought. I thought you were eating gluten free.
Eddie
I hate that. I hate that. My father in law does that crap to me all the time when I go home for Christmas, he's like, oh, I thought you weren't eating carbs. Like, stop. I've had a day, all right? Stop judging me.
Morgan
And sometimes the pain that you're gonna go through is worth it. And that's what I've accepted. I'm like, there will be moments in my life we're going through, like, gluten I found makes me break out in hives. Okay. It's really painful.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
And dairy makes me super inflamed. I feel like a blowfish. But you know what? There are some days that I see something that is full of gluten and dairy and I'm like, give it to me. I need that in my life.
Eddie
I deserve it.
Morgan
Exactly.
Eddie
Give it to me and I will
Morgan
be fine and I'll deal with my consequences. But it's also funny because when I'm in my consequences, I'm like, I'll look at my fiance. I'm like, why did you let me have that?
Eddie
Ah, right. Like, it's his fault. But you know what's funny too, is as soon as you swallow it, it's like, why did I do that?
Morgan
Yep. I literally had this moment because Eddie was sitting here. I was waiting for him to do this, and I had. I had broken my fast. Like, I was done. I had hit my 24 hours and I was starving. Like, you would have thought I was a trash bag trying to eat things. Like, I'm a raccoon. And there's muffins, like these mini muffins in there, and they're not gluten free or dairy free. And I was like, I want those muffins so bad. And I'm eating them. I was like, these taste so horrible. But why am I still eating them?
Eddie
Why? It makes no sense.
Morgan
It's horrible. So I get it.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
I respect it.
Eddie
So, yeah, there we go. Well, there's that.
Morgan
Maria also wants to give you a shout out. She said, I love you, Eddie. You're not a hater at all. Please don't listen to all the real haters.
Eddie
Thanks, Maria.
Morgan
And also, Heather thought that the photo I posted of you was a very handsome photo of You.
Eddie
Oh, so I didn't see it.
Morgan
Okay.
Eddie
That. The one with my glasses. Was I holding my glasses?
Morgan
Yeah, you're editing. I just. I just snapped a shot of you really quick. And Trisha says you are her favorite, hands down. You're hilarious.
Eddie
Oh, thank you, Trisha.
Morgan
So I give you some shout out.
Eddie
I love that. Thank you. Made me feel good about myself.
Morgan
Yeah. Travel ball versus recreational baseball. Jessica from Ohio.
Eddie
Don't do travel ball. Like, I don't do. I'm not saying don't do it. I'm saying I don't do it. We don't do travel ball. I just don't see the benefits of doing travel ball. I've been. I've traveled before, and I've seen travel teams at a hotel and I've seen the parents at a bar while the par. While the kids are at the pool. They don't look happy. It just doesn't look. My. My thing is, like, my. My kids aren't going to play in the NFL. They're not gonna play in the NBA.
Morgan
How do you know that, though?
Eddie
No, they're really not. Like, they're just not. They're not gonna have the heights to play in the NBA. And they're. And they don't have this. The. The talent. I wouldn't say the skill, because my kids are really skilled. They have a lot of skills. They've been doing. They've been doing lessons for so long that they're really good ballplayers, but they don't have the talent, the natural talent to be NBA players. Like, they have the skill for sure, but they won't have the height and they won't have the talent. So I think, best case scenario, we're looking at them playing in a small college.
Morgan
I was gonna say, but what about college ball?
Eddie
Yeah, they could probably play in a small college, but if there. But traveling, being part of a travel tournament doesn't. That to me, doesn't guarantee I feel college.
Morgan
Like, you're speaking a little bit here from the parenting experience of what it's like to travel ball, man.
Eddie
But, but like, so we do AAU tournaments locally, right? And locally, meaning 40 mile radius. We sometimes we travel like 40 miles for a tournament. But twice a year, there is a national tournament here where teams from all over the country come and they. They play here in Nashville, my kids play in that. They. They. Their teams play in that tournament. When they play in that tournament, they get crushed, like, because the talent in the nation is so freaking good. So why would I go to St. Louis. To go get crushed. Why would I travel to Chicago to just get slaughtered? And it just doesn't make sense to me, you know? And I think that they'll have a good chance of playing college without doing the whole travel thing. And plus, travel ball is so expensive.
Morgan
It is. And you know what? I will tell you, I feel like travel ball also burns them out. I mean, speaking from literally personal.
Eddie
We've talked about this. You're right.
Morgan
It burned the crap out of me. I loved it. It's some of my favorite memories. And I wouldn't take it back. But it was rough. I mean, I quit before high school because I was so over it. And it was more burnout because coaches and stuff. So it really depends on the situation.
Eddie
But was it fun to travel?
Morgan
So much fun. I have my whole pin collection. Did they do that in baseball where you collect pins from other teams? Oh, my gosh. We would trade pins. They're like little pins that you could wear, but you put them in a booklet from different states.
Eddie
I feel like the girls are a little more thoughtful with stuff like that. It was always a thing the boys don't do. They don't trade pins.
Morgan
I have to believe that the boys are doing something cool because that was like one of our favorite parts of tournaments that is cool is you would get a pin and you try and collect it from the different states. I definitely had every state, plus, like other places.
Eddie
Maybe they do patches. I've seen some kids with like bags and they have different patches on them. Maybe that's it.
Morgan
Maybe they're doing patches. Yeah. But I love travel ball. It was fun. It was. It was a cool experience. But I totally get burnout. I get the money, I get the time.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
Because that's my. That was my entire life for several years.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
And I. I wasn't home on the weekends doing stuff.
Eddie
I think having them in leagues is really good, though. Like, you know, year round leagues is great just because they stay active. They get to play on teams. You get to the whole benefit of them, like, just being in something is really cool.
Morgan
Yeah. So love that. Okay, we're gonna do one more here real quick. We need updates on pets. How is Eddie's dog, Coachella?
Eddie
She's good.
Morgan
And Morgan, how are your pet's health? Allen in Florida, you wanna go first? How is Coachella?
Eddie
Coachella's good. She. She's getting old.
Morgan
How old is she now?
Eddie
Oh, man. I mean, I would say she's probably
Morgan
11, but it's still in good health.
Eddie
It's it's like she's older. Like, she's got a little bit of. They told me, like, the eye. Her eyes are like. You know.
Morgan
Are they foggy?
Eddie
Yeah, they're getting a little foggy. So she's definitely got the old. Old lady thing going on. She doesn't seem like she's missing a step, you know? Like, she's still. She's still very active. She still tries to go hide in her little spot, you know, whenever. Like, the house gets loud. It's so funny when the kids are loud. She kind of, like, goes into her little. Her little pet area.
Morgan
She's like, this is enough for me.
Eddie
Yeah. She's like, it's getting too loud in here. Like, let me just go away. But she's good. She's got kind of. Her hind legs shake a little bit.
Morgan
Bit, you know, arthritis going on, maybe.
Eddie
Yes, it's definitely that. Like, she's good, but she's definitely getting older. Yeah, but, yeah.
Morgan
Oh, I know. She's still hanging out in the. In the one boy's room all the time.
Eddie
She's not allowed to go upstairs anymore, but sometimes she does.
Morgan
She. She ends up there somehow.
Eddie
Sometimes she sneaks up there. We're like. We hadn't seen her in, like, an hour. Like, wait, where's Coachella? She's upstairs again.
Morgan
Did you ever give the diapers a
Eddie
try and she's in that spot? No, we never did the diapers, but she hasn't had an accident since. The only thing she's done is she's eaten grass and thrown up, you know?
Morgan
Yeah. And they often do that when they don't feel good.
Eddie
Yes.
Morgan
It's weird. Like, the natural instinct they have to do that.
Eddie
I know. Well, part of it, like, so, like, I grill, you know, and I have these grease pans, and I saw her drinking it, and I'm like, don't you know that you're gonna get sick?
Morgan
Well, but she smells me.
Eddie
Oh, of course she does.
Morgan
She's a carnivore.
Eddie
I know. She's like, that's all fat and like. And then, sure enough, like clockwork, she's throwing up in, like, an hour.
Morgan
Oh, yeah, that tracks.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
Well, I'm glad she's doing good, though.
Eddie
Yeah, she's good.
Morgan
She's good in there. 11. Remy just turned 11.
Eddie
11, I think 11. You know, when you adopt a dog, you really don't know? No one really knows. I remember Kenny from the Humane Association. He's like, I don't know, man. She's. I would guess maybe she's four.
Morgan
Yeah. Like, rough idea.
Eddie
Yeah. We don't know.
Morgan
Yeah, that's definitely how they feel about Hazel. For sure. She's. She's an older cat, but yeah. Remy's doing really well. She's adjusted to her diagnosis. She gets a shot every month. She gets medicine every day. And as long as we stay on those, she does really well.
Eddie
Good.
Morgan
We would never know that something happened. So are you still that way?
Eddie
Are you still making fresh chicken for her?
Morgan
Oh, yeah. Fresh food, all the things. Lots of supplements. Just try. She. She takes a daily. I call it her morning treat.
Eddie
It's a testosterone. She takes tea.
Morgan
I'm actually related to Coachella, but sure, we can go there. Coachella, arthritis. She takes like a morning tree and it's for like, joints and stuff.
Eddie
It's a morning treat.
Morgan
I call it her morning treat. That's how I get her to take it. It's just like. It literally is a treat, but it's for hip and joint movement. It's just a supplement.
Eddie
Where do you buy it?
Morgan
Online. I can give it to you if it'll help. Text it to me. Yeah. And she loves it. She'll eat it right up. So it's no big deal. But. So she's. She's doing great. She hates that she has to get shots once a month. It's pretty brutal.
Eddie
Does she react to the show shot?
Morgan
They take her back and it's a good thing.
Eddie
So you're not even.
Morgan
She will not get blood work, anything with me in the room because she looks at me and whines at me so loud like, are you going to let this happen?
Eddie
Yeah. Like, why are you letting this happen?
Morgan
Yeah. And so it doesn't work. So they have to take her back and. But I have to bribe her with a whole jerky stick. So she get. She's getting a lot of treats right now.
Eddie
It's so funny. They'll do anything for a freaking jerky stick. Anything.
Morgan
So food motivated. And it makes my life so much easier. It really does. Does. And then Hazel, she's fluids three times a week. So it's a little rough, but we're doing it.
Eddie
Why the fluids?
Morgan
Kidney disease. So the only way to keep her from having, like, kidney infections is to keep her flushing. And so being on the fluids is a really good thing for her. It seems she's at least stable now and it's not fluid. And we have, like, medicine on deck in case she does get kidney infections. Cats get stressed very easily, so as long as we keep her from Getting stressed were golden until she no longer wants to do it. So that's the hardest part with her. She's. She's definitely more of the harder one right now. Just poking her three times a week is rough.
Eddie
She.
Morgan
And she claws at me.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
Poor Brayden has to be the one to put the needle in. Like.
Eddie
But you're holding her.
Morgan
Yeah, I have to kind of restrain her and keep her confined to do it. Because she doesn't want it.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
But I'm like, it. We call it her Gatorade. She needs it. It's literally Gatorade.
Eddie
Is it like, bright green? Green? No, because that'd be cool.
Morgan
So it's like. It has electrolytes and stuff in it for her.
Eddie
It's like Gatorade.
Morgan
Yeah. This is her Gatorade. We're like, you're getting your Gatorade right now. It's gonna be fine.
Eddie
Lemon, lime. It's good.
Morgan
But I. I hate getting poked with a needle once a year, so I can't imagine three times a week, But. So they're both doing well, though, with both of them.
Eddie
And then what about her friends showing up?
Morgan
I don't know. We'll find out.
Eddie
Okay.
Morgan
They keep hanging out. I keep feeding them, though.
Eddie
Well, that's why they keep hanging out. Morgan.
Morgan
I feel bad. I would love.
Eddie
They're probably coming from a place where they. Don't you think?
Morgan
I don't know. We have a pretty big feral cat colony. But we do also have cats that are. For some reason, people have indoor outdoor cats in the city. I get it. On a farm. I will never understand.
Eddie
In the city. It is kind of weird.
Morgan
Like, I. Yeah. There's so much bad things that can happen in a city. On a farm, they have an entire place to run.
Eddie
Yeah. There's a lot of traffic in the city.
Morgan
Yeah. It's wild to me. So we do have some of those. So it's hard to figure out. But most of the time with their. An indoor outdoor, they have a collar on. And none of these have collars.
Eddie
Okay.
Morgan
So it's hard to tell.
Eddie
Are they skinny?
Morgan
No, they look very well. And they're friendly.
Eddie
Probably munching on rats or something. Mice, I'm sure.
Morgan
Which is why we also can't bring them inside.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
That disease could happen. And both Remy and Hazel cannot get stressed. They're two diseases impacted by stress. And so bringing in other animals doesn't work. So that's why we've had to stop. Remy's retired from therapy work.
Eddie
She's living that Retired life.
Morgan
She is. She's officially retired. We don't foster anymore. Anymore. Because we can't. And then obviously I can't adopt anymore either because of their situation. So they're the primary focus for the rest of their lives. So.
Eddie
All right.
Morgan
That's where we're at.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
Okay. We need to get out of here.
Eddie
Okay.
Morgan
I need to let Eddie go.
Eddie
We're good. What else can I talk about?
Morgan
Anywhere.
Eddie
Where can they find you at Producer Eddie? All the things. Oh, I do a lot of Bobby cast now, so, like, I'm on Netflix sometimes. It's kind of cool.
Morgan
You say that really humbly, but I know you wanted to brag about that.
Eddie
It's kind of cool. Like, it's kind of cool. Sometimes I turn on Netflix. Like, Look, I'm on TV. That's cool. And then 25 whistles. You know, all that stuff.
Morgan
Everything.
