Thank you to the presenting sponsor of today's episode, American Express. I'm always traveling for work, which means I'm constantly trying new restaurants in a bunch of different cities, some good, some bad. And while I love most of the food I try, the rewards I am earning with my Amex Gold Card while eating in these different cities is the best part. With Amex Gold you earn four times Membership Rewards points on purchases at restaurants on up to $50,000 per year. And now you can leave the restaurant and get straight to the action with access to card member entrances at select venues. That's the powerful backing of American Express Card member entrance access not limited to AMEX Gold Card terms apply. Learn more@americanexpress.com withamx I love college football. I love making music. I love podcasts. I love this podcast. I don't love dealing with asthma, especially when it's tough to control. So if you're reaching for your rescue inhaler more than twice a week, maybe it's time to ask your doctor if Dupixent may be right for you.

Get help right away for face, mouth, tongue or throat swelling, wheezing or trouble breathing. Tell your doctor right away of signs of inflamed blood vessels like rash, chest pain, worsening shortness of breath, brown or dark colored urine, tingling or numbness in your limbs. Tell your doctor of new or worsening skin symptoms, joint aches and pain, or a parasitic infection. Don't change or stop other treatments without talking to your doctor. Don't do more of what you love with less asthma. Visit dupixent.com or call 1-844- DUPIXENT.

When your cash comes back for an encore. And with discover, it can be because they automatically match all the cash back you've earned at the end of your first year.

Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
In the wild.
Lunchbox
Okay, so we get 20 questions.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. And you can be the team captain.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Bobby Bones
So you can have you guys, whoever you want to be in the game. You can ask all the questions, everybody. So all I'll say is I ran into a celebrity in the wild and I talked to them, and it was awkward at first because they did not know who I was. That's the clue that I will give you. And that. That's the whole thing. But the clue is I ran into a celebrity in the wild. I did talk to them, and at first they had no idea who I was.
Lunchbox
Did you have your glasses off?
Bobby Bones
Who knows what the scenario is? But that's the clue. Yes or no questions. And you have 20 of them. Go.
Lunchbox
Okay, we'll go down the line, guys. Okay.
Amy
You're the captain.
Lunchbox
I know. I'll go. Lunchbox. Morgan. Eddie. Okay. All right, Bobby.
Bobby Bones
And if you guess a person, that's a question. Yeah. And if you lose, Whoever loses, you die.
Amy
Oh, my goodness.
Bobby Bones
Kill you. Yeah.
Amy
Serious?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Yeah. The games have to get more dramatic or we're not getting any views.
Lunchbox
Did you run into a male celebrity?
Bobby Bones
No.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Woman.
Amy
Interesting.
Bobby Bones
All three of you go. Huh? I'm a woman.
Amy
Surprised by that one.
Lunchbox
Go ahead, lunchbox.
Morgan
Yeah. I'm trying to think is. Because I was already thinking male. It was an athlete. And they didn't know who you were. And I was like, dang it. So now it's a woman. I'm really confused. Are they known? Are they known as an Actress?
Bobby Bones
No, not actress, Morgan. I'll tell you what. Whomever gets it can have a dollar from a money can, but if you yell and you miss it, you're out.
Amy
Okay.
Scuba Steve
Are they older than 60?
Lunchbox
He's gotta look it up.
Bobby Bones
Well, I just want to be. For sure, sure. Because I don't want to be going back.
Scuba Steve
And because, guys, my thought process here is, like, if they're older, maybe they haven't listened to the show. Maybe they're in the older range. That's my thought process.
Bobby Bones
I have the answer. The answer is, no, they are not. And one other rule is, if you get all 20 questions in, it's just whoever yells their name first gets to answer first. It's not yell the person at any point. If you want to yell.
Parker McCollum
And you.
Bobby Bones
Get it right, you can have the dollar.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
All right. Eddie, over to you.
Amy
Does she live in Nashville?
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Amy
Why'd you laugh at that, Lunchbox?
Lunchbox
It's a good one.
Amy
Yeah, he's quiet now.
Bobby Bones
Well, he also was like, I have no idea. Then he laughs at somebody with a good question.
Morgan
I don't know who all lives here.
Amy
Like, Paris Hilton doesn't live here, dude.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but nobody knows who all lives here. Sure.
Lunchbox
Were you wearing your glasses?
Bobby Bones
What?
Lunchbox
At the time, Guys, because she didn't recognize me.
Amy
How's that gonna help?
Lunchbox
Because it helps me.
Bobby Bones
I need you to be more specific with that question.
Lunchbox
Were your glasses off when you first went.
Bobby Bones
These. These.
Lunchbox
Okay, so you're. Maybe you had sunglasses on.
Bobby Bones
I'm just asking a question.
Lunchbox
Okay. Did you have your standard. What? People recognize you for glasses on at the time of the meeting?
Bobby Bones
No.
Lunchbox
Damn.
Bobby Bones
Great question.
Eddie
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
Great question. And they were judging you, and I saw their eyes. Your judgment eyes. Lunchbox screwed your judgment eyes.
Morgan
How does that help me pick who the person is?
Lunchbox
It for sure does, because we would consider them to be maybe somebody that he doesn't know.
Bobby Bones
Well, Amy, you nailed the question. Good job.
Lunchbox
Thank you.
Amy
You know what?
Scuba Steve
Yeah, that helped.
Bobby Bones
And Eddie and Lunchbox. Screw both of you. I saw you judging her.
Amy
So the answer was, well, Bobby didn't have his punishment.
Bobby Bones
Come here so I can screw you.
Scuba Steve
Yes, Lunchbox. Now, it's possibly somebody that does know him.
Bobby Bones
He.
Scuba Steve
They just didn't recognize him.
Lunchbox
Exactly. So, like, now it could be.
Bobby Bones
Or it just still could be. They don't know who I am. But still, that was a great question.
Morgan
Have they ever been in the studio?
Bobby Bones
No.
Lunchbox
Wait, do you mean this new he asked question?
Morgan
No, I said the studio.
Bobby Bones
No, he said this studio.
Morgan
I think it's the show.
Bobby Bones
No, he said this. If we go back and he said this and he's going to argue about it, he's kicked out of the game.
Morgan
No, I'm sorry, but that's. Let's talk this studio for him.
Lunchbox
I'm fighting for my team.
Bobby Bones
I'm talking about studio. This person has never been in this studio, Mike. Is that the question?
Scuba Steve
Oh, okay. Go for it.
Amy
Guess it.
Scuba Steve
Are they married to someone famous?
Bobby Bones
No. And they've never been in this studio. And they're not married to anybody famous.
Lunchbox
They're not married to anybody famous. Hmm. And they're less than 60.
Bobby Bones
Yep.
Lunchbox
But why do we keep thinking they're old? They could be young.
Scuba Steve
I mean, I don't know. He had to technically Google it.
Amy
No, he didn't know anything.
Bobby Bones
I could have been tricking you.
Amy
I could have been tricking you.
Morgan
Knows that.
Bobby Bones
Never know. Always at some point pull out the Google.
Scuba Steve
Yeah, he could be tricking us right now.
Morgan
He does it every time.
Amy
Eddie, were you wearing a cardigan?
Lunchbox
What does that matter?
Amy
Exactly.
Bobby Bones
No. Great question though, Eddie.
Amy
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
Great question.
Amy
You're hating on a. On a good question.
Lunchbox
Why is that a good question?
Bobby Bones
It wasn't stupid.
Amy
Stupid.
Bobby Bones
Yours was good. His was.
Amy
No, yours was dumb too.
Lunchbox
No, it wasn't. No, my. Ours. Mine gives information.
Amy
Me too. Me too. It wasn't cold outside. Well, he met her.
Lunchbox
No. Cuz he wears sweaters every day in.
Amy
The summer cuz it's cold in the studio.
Bobby Bones
That's not why I wear whatever I want here. This is Bobby land. I could turn the air hotter if I wanted.
Amy
This is so dumb.
Bobby Bones
Eddie. Your question was stupid. Amy.
Lunchbox
Okay. Has she been in our other studio?
Bobby Bones
I think so. Yeah. I would say yes. Yes, Mike. I think so. I would say yes. But we will do a check.
Lunchbox
Can you fact check, please?
Bobby Bones
Yes. I would bet. Yes. If it was like bet money against it, I would say yes.
Amy
She's younger than 60.
Scuba Steve
I think she's somewhere around 60.
Amy
That was the answer to but he's.
Lunchbox
Also, she said, not married to anybody famous. Is she married?
Bobby Bones
Hold on. Hey, Mike, good question. Yeah.
Scuba Steve
I was thinking potentially Rita Wilson. That was my.
Bobby Bones
But you guys, you know, if you share.
Lunchbox
She's not an actor.
Scuba Steve
We're talking as our team.
Lunchbox
But they're not famous for acting.
Amy
Hey, that's true.
Bobby Bones
The answer is no.
Lunchbox
She's never been in the studio.
Bobby Bones
No. Oh, I had a double fact check from Mike and Scuba and I look myself. She's never been in any studio as far like this One or the one over there. Okay. Oh, well, I think she's been in that studio at some point in her life. Okay. Okay. But yes. I thought she would have been. Yes. But we upon Google, the answer is no. And a triple fact check. No.
Amy
Who's up?
Bobby Bones
You lunchbox me.
Morgan
Is she known for making music as a musician.
Bobby Bones
As opposed to making music as an actress?
Morgan
Well, I mean, you'll find some technicality on how I asked it, so I want to make sure.
Bobby Bones
Is she known for making music as a musician? Yes. Ten questions.
Scuba Steve
Oh, I have an idea.
Lunchbox
So do I.
Bobby Bones
Now, you guys know you're kind of not on the same team anymore.
Amy
Yeah. You can get the money.
Bobby Bones
You're playing for the dollar. Oh, but you're eliminated if you miss the guess.
Lunchbox
Dang. It did when I said any student.
Bobby Bones
I'm not answering your question, so it's not your turn. But if you want to say your name.
Lunchbox
I know. Can I go back to my question?
Bobby Bones
It'll come to you in a minute.
Parker McCollum
Go ahead.
Bobby Bones
Morgan, the floor seats to you.
Scuba Steve
Has she been known to listen to our show?
Bobby Bones
No, not. Not. Not that I know of. I don't even know who you're thinking about, but no.
Amy
Eddie, has she released music in the last 10 years?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I'd say yeah. But yeah. The answer is yes. I want to fact check just to make sure. But the answer is yes. Yes.
Lunchbox
Okay. When I said studio, what about our studio in Austin?
Bobby Bones
Great question.
Amy
Cause that was not included in those other questions.
Bobby Bones
I think yes.
Lunchbox
I think yes, too.
Parker McCollum
I think I know who it is.
Bobby Bones
You got a chance to yell your name.
Parker McCollum
You don't have to wait.
Lunchbox
I need to know your name. Has she been in our studio in Austin?
Bobby Bones
Yes. Okay. Yes.
Lunchbox
Amy.
Bobby Bones
Amy Colby Calais. Correct.
Amy
Dollar for Amy. How did you do that?
Lunchbox
Because I. I don't know. She just popped my head because she's the only person I could think of that lives in Nashville.
Amy
That makes me.
Bobby Bones
She played a Bobby cast.
Amy
She's in our studio.
Bobby Bones
Go ahead with Gone West. We looked.
Amy
No, I've. I remember her sitting on the studio seat where I used to sit in the old studio. Find it 100%.
Bobby Bones
We couldn't find.
Amy
And she even said, can you count me in?
Bobby Bones
I don't think that's true.
Lunchbox
I know for a fact she was in our Austin studio because I sang. I sang with her.
Bobby Bones
Dang.
Amy
I have a memory of her in our studio.
Lunchbox
Starts and natos. Was she on the phone?
Scuba Steve
She did come through, like, CMA remotes, so maybe that's what you're potentially thinking of.
Bobby Bones
Maybe we don't have gone west, the band or her. Just her in our studio. She did play with us at the Million Dollar show at the Ryman. Yes. And she was in our Austin studio. We were doing that show in Austin.
Amy
Well, so what's the story?
Bobby Bones
Oh, I forgot about that. I was driving down the road. I was at. I had to go by my manager Tom's house. And as I was leaving, I just. I took, like, some lefts and rights, and I see this person with these dogs. One looks like Beethoven, and I'm like, look at that dog. That's awesome. Those Beethoven dogs look awesome.
Amy
Big ones.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
And so Saint Bernards.
Bobby Bones
Is that what they're called?
Amy
I think so.
Bobby Bones
And I'm like, damn, look at that dog. And then I'm like, is that Colby Calais and have sunglasses on? So I roll my window down, and that's Colby Kelly. And I'm like, hey, Colby. And she's like, oh, God, a fan. Not in a bad way. But, like, she was on the phone, too. So I, like, I did everything absolutely inappropriate. And she was like, hey, how's it going? I said, hey, that's Bobby. And then I realized she just knew Bobby is so. I'm like, hey, Bobby Bones. She goes, oh. And she was on the phone with somebody. And then she puts the phone down right in mid conversation. And I'm like, hey, your song with Ryan Hurd. Like, I heard it's really great. She's like, thanks. But I was also on the phone through speaker, through Bluetooth at the time, and they're going like, what's happening? And so it was a big cluster F, as they would say. And then I drove off, and then I got a text from her because I guess her manager knows my manager. And she was like, hey, I'll just read it. She said, so funny running into you. I was all flustered with the dogs, and my phone call was literally on the phone with my manager trying to come up with some cool engagement ideas for a song. And then that was it. But I saw Colby Kelly walking her dogs.
Amy
That's cool.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, she was super nice. Even though she thought it was, like, a random fan attacking her, she was still very nice to that random fan attacking her. So, Amy, you won the dollar.
Lunchbox
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
You can come get it. Oh, back. Back problems.
Lunchbox
I'll get it in a minute.
Bobby Bones
I keep seeing you hunt.
Lunchbox
It'll take me. Like, sitting is fine. It's just when I stand up from sitting too long, that's a big Part.
Bobby Bones
Of sitting is the standing up from it.
Amy
It is.
Bobby Bones
Otherwise, it's not sitting. It's staying.
Lunchbox
Well, I know, but, like, sitting, I don't really feel it. And then when the minute I get up, I'm like, oh, yeah, I'm in pain.
Amy
Is this all from knees to feet?
Lunchbox
It's all, well, knees to knees to feet adding up like it was there. And, like, knees to feet just sent it over the edge.
Bobby Bones
Knees to feet. Okay.
Lunchbox
Straw that broke the camel's back.
Bobby Bones
I got, like, 80 bucks in this money cup here.
Amy
Yeah, you're making cash.
Bobby Bones
I'm losing it to Amy, though. $1. Okay, let's go around the room, Amy.
Lunchbox
Okay. So what color do y' all dream in? I know we don't talk about dreams that much, but.
Bobby Bones
Great question.
Lunchbox
My friend said she only dreams in black and white, and I was like, what? You do? So then I googled it, and according to research, only 12 of people report black and white dreaming. And I guess I was dreaming color. I'd never really thought about it, but everything looks normal to me. It doesn't look black and white, so I didn't know around the room what y' all dreaming.
Amy
I don't think I paid attention to that.
Lunchbox
Right. Which makes me think it's probably color.
Bobby Bones
Which makes me think it's probably color as well. I don't dream a lot. I usually don't hit that deep part of sleep, but I don't know that when I do, I'm like, dang, that felt like the 50s. So I don't. I probably color. I do find it interesting people who know multiple languages, what languages they dream in. And there's a time whenever you move and you, like, move to a new country and kind of embrace the culture and speak only in that language. There's like, a flipping point in a lot of people's brains where they start to then dream in the language they learn their second language. Yeah. So by dream in color, I'm Jamie Johnson over here.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Nobody in here is a black and white.
Amy
I don't think so.
Morgan
No.
Amy
Like, I just. Maybe next dream, I'll try to focus on it. Be like, all right, well, color.
Bobby Bones
What color is that?
Morgan
Lunchbox man, this Jeff Bezos. I'm about tired of this wedding. Like, are they already married? Because now there's reports they've been married for weeks, and it's just a ceremony that they're doing over there, like a party. But I saw Jeff Bezos gave his wife to be a $5 million necklace.
Bobby Bones
As a wedding Gift, which is like a nickel. It's like going to a quarter gumball machine for one of us.
Amy
So it's kind of cheap.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
But I don't know. There are a lot of necklaces that are worth more than that. That was the problem.
Lunchbox
I saw some woman on Instagram breaking down, like, their money to our money because she had spent the. What's her name? Who's Lawrence Sanchez.
Bobby Bones
Sanchez, yeah.
Lunchbox
Lauren Sanchez had spent, you know, I don't Remember exactly, but $800,000 or something on her bachelorette party situation. And people are like, what in the world? But the math on that was not even a penny in there. The amount of money they have, it's not even a penny.
Bobby Bones
Is he the richest guy or is Elon Musk the richest guy? Elon it is. Is he top three? I think Larry Ellison was two last time I looked.
Amy
Who's that?
Bobby Bones
Oracle. The reason I really know about him, like, maybe I got that in a trivia question, to dig deep back in the successes and resources. But his wife's a big Michigan fan, and they paid all the money to get the quarterback.
Amy
Oh, wow.
Bobby Bones
So that's kind of how that comes together. So number one is Elon, number two is Larry Ellison. So they just. They basically bought the quarterback that was going to lsu. Now he's going to Michigan.
Amy
But if you have that much money, can you just buy the whole team?
Bobby Bones
Well, they're now. So, yes.
Amy
You could have, like, let's give our quarterback 5 million. Let's give our running back. Absolutely.
Bobby Bones
Texas Tech did that with a pitcher and softball. They gave her a million bucks. Now they just changed some rules and some laws where if you're going to pay them. Collectives can't just pay a bunch of money. They have to, like, say exactly what the person's going to do for that money to prove what name, image and likeness is. Because now there's a revenue share model anyway. That's a whole sports thing. But you could have three months ago.
Amy
Wow.
Bobby Bones
You still. Can you just. Now they have to work for it a little bit.
Morgan
Also, I found it interesting that Lauren Sanchez's ex is going to the wedding. Tony Gonzalez. And so I thought Amy probably got.
Bobby Bones
Paid to be quiet about stuff.
Amy
Her ex is Tony Gonzalez, the tight end.
Bobby Bones
I don't think so.
Morgan
Yes, Tony Gonzalez, tight end.
Bobby Bones
They have a kid. No way.
Morgan
They have a kid together.
Bobby Bones
That's awesome. I didn't know that you were kidding. Were you making a joke?
Amy
Who, me?
Bobby Bones
The tight end?
Amy
No, I just. That's the only Tony Gonzalez are the same age.
Morgan
I guess so I don't know how.
Bobby Bones
That's freaking. Tony Gonzalez, a tight end from the.
Amy
That's amazing.
Morgan
But yes. And so I thought about it because I was like, oh, my gosh. Remember, Amy talked about, oh, maybe we asked her one day, would you go on vacation with your ex? Like, how weird that would be.
Bobby Bones
She's older than him.
Morgan
And I just was like, that's crazy.
Amy
But you also said that some of the girls that you hooked up with were at your wedding.
Morgan
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But we don't go on vacation together.
Amy
No, but they're. They're at the wedding.
Morgan
I wasn't married to them.
Bobby Bones
Oh, that's true, too.
Morgan
Married is totally different.
Bobby Bones
They have a kid. They share a kid. That's crazy. That's the Tony Gonzalez, the tight end. Yeah, yeah.
Amy
Had no idea.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you did, because you said it's at the tight end.
Amy
No, that's the only Tony Gonzalez that I know. So I asked the question.
Lunchbox
So it was her son that had. Was turning 19 that they did the.
Bobby Bones
Foam party for Nico Gonzalez. Turek's boyfriend. Son. Her ex husband.
Lunchbox
Oh, but they just had a baby.
Morgan
Oh, they had a baby. I mean, that's what I thought. I mean, when they got her ex husband, though.
Bobby Bones
So now the argument's back on.
Amy
They hooked up, but they had a child.
Morgan
I mean, that is so strange that he's going to the wedding.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Mark Zuckerberg at 3, Jeff Bezos at 4. By the way, Warren Buffett at 5, Larry Page at 6. Steve Ballmer, team owner at 7. Bernard Arnault and family, 138 billion. He lives in France. I don't know. That is. Is he probably the owner of like, fashion brands also?
Morgan
I wonder, does Bezos, his ex wife, go to the wedding?
Bobby Bones
No, I think they don't.
Amy
Like, there's no way. They.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but I don't know.
Morgan
And I mean, I mean, how bad all this press. She's like, gosh, I came and turn off tv. Turn on the tv. It's just all over the place.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Morgan
He is all up in her face.
Bobby Bones
He has. It says luxury goods, but what. What brands do they have? That guy. Lvmh. All these. Oh, here we go. Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior.
Amy
Whoa.
Bobby Bones
Moet. Is that. You said the, the alcohol.
Amy
Yeah, Moet. It's like a champagne.
Bobby Bones
Fendi, Giamanche, Hennessy. Dang.
Scuba Steve
Wait, they own all of those?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Morgan
Oh, geez.
Bobby Bones
That's why he's like the fifth or sixth or seventh. What is he. Mike. Eighth. Eighth richest person in the world. 138 billion. Sergey Brin at nine. Is he Google? Google?
Parker McCollum
Yep.
Bobby Bones
And then 10. Eddie, what the heck?
Amy
Yeah, I popped in there recently and.
Lunchbox
Tell you guys, sometimes you're in, you're in, you're out, bro.
Bobby Bones
Congratulations.
Amy
Bills come in, then I go down.
Bobby Bones
Dang. Yeah. Jensen Huang, CEO and president, Nvidia.
Amy
Richest man.
Bobby Bones
Dude, you're one degree away.
Morgan
We're headed there. We're right on track.
Amy
Just keep riding his wave.
Bobby Bones
Nvidia has gone back up.
Morgan
Yeah, it's gone up huge.
Bobby Bones
Hey, your bitcoin should have been making some really good money, too.
Morgan
I'm gonna check on our Nvidia real quick for you. I mean, we are getting rich.
Amy
You gotta log in and everything.
Bobby Bones
Nah, man.
Morgan
Takes like two seconds to log in. Watch this.
Lunchbox
One, two.
Morgan
Boom.
Amy
What's the number?
Morgan
Oh, man. Nvidia.
Bobby Bones
Wow. What's the percentage? Because the money's gonna be odd because we put a lot more money in. So I wanna know the percentage, not the doll.
Morgan
You ready to have your socks blown off?
Bobby Bones
Percentage?
Morgan
59.7% up.
Bobby Bones
Yes. Guys.
Lunchbox
Gosh, such situation.
Bobby Bones
Let me check mine. I know.
Morgan
My goodness.
Amy
What do you mean yours? Oh, you have your own.
Bobby Bones
Mine's up 2%. I bought at the exact same time.
Amy
That's interesting. So you have a broker lunchbox, but you also have like.
Bobby Bones
We're getting.
Morgan
No, you're looking at today's return. It's up 2%. The total is 59.71% total return.
Bobby Bones
Whoa. I can do total. What's the total money?
Morgan
$2,555. No, 45 just went down. Sorry.
Bobby Bones
But what did we put in?
Morgan
Total minus. So we put in, like, 4, 300.
Bobby Bones
We did. We put in what? I don't even trust these numbers.
Amy
You all put that much.
Bobby Bones
I don't know. I don't know. I feel like we're getting tricked. Yeah.
Morgan
Divided by three.
Amy
What? Is that still high?
Bobby Bones
We gave you for $1,000. What? Yeah. Y' all feel this way every time.
Morgan
You have the same reaction. Single time.
Bobby Bones
He still can't believe.
Lunchbox
Okay, guys, are we sure this is.
Bobby Bones
So we put in how much?
Morgan
4,300.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
I have 43 and $20.
Morgan
Yep. And we are at.
Bobby Bones
We all put in over $11,000.
Lunchbox
Like, over time.
Morgan
Over time. Not in one time.
Lunchbox
Okay, so that, like, I was like.
Morgan
I came to you guys, and I bought. We bought Nvidia. And then it started doing stuff, and I was like, guys, we need to buy more. And we bought More. And then I was like, one more time. We need to buy more. And we bought.
Bobby Bones
We're never going to get our money back is the problem.
Morgan
Oh, you might.
Bobby Bones
Hold on. It's not even that. This. Because that, like. Like he always says, it's not money till you cash it out. So we don't. We may never get our money back. Just like the pallet.
Amy
Y' all should cash out.
Bobby Bones
I. I would like to cash out right this second.
Lunchbox
No, you said that last time.
Morgan
Didn't he?
Lunchbox
But if you vote, though, just keep it in. We.
Bobby Bones
No, I will. I will take it and reinvest it myself. I don't trust him having it.
Lunchbox
We're gonna get it back. No. We started this together. We're gonna end it together.
Bobby Bones
I don't want to be together anymore. Stop. I want to break up. So rude. I want to break up.
Lunchbox
No, no.
Amy
I want to break up. Right.
Bobby Bones
Hey. The corporate protector over there.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
This is how it's gotta be.
Amy
You understand how we feel the same.
Morgan
We can buy him out if he doesn't want the video. If he wants to be out on.
Bobby Bones
The video, I'd like to be out.
Lunchbox
No, you're in it. You're in it to win it with us. Sorry.
Bobby Bones
What if he dies?
Lunchbox
Well, then we'll get the login.
Bobby Bones
That's not how it works.
Morgan
Then you'll hold to my face at my funeral.
Amy
I'm sure it'll be easy.
Bobby Bones
Open his eyes.
Lunchbox
His wife can get in.
Amy
Chicago Cubs. What's his birthday?
Bobby Bones
His wife doesn't know his money.
Lunchbox
Lunchbox. You're going to need a way for us to get into our Nvidia if you die.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so wait, how much do we put in total? 4,000.
Morgan
Yeah. For Nvidia? Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And what's our total?
Morgan
$6,800.
Amy
That's amazing.
Bobby Bones
And how much did you put on a bitcoin?
Morgan
Let me go back to pick bitcoin. I am up. I gotta click on it. All right, here we are. I've made $137.
Bobby Bones
How much you put in?
Morgan
I. I put $400.
Bobby Bones
25%.
Morgan
Yeah. I'm at 25%. Not bad.
Amy
It's pretty good, man. Making that money.
Morgan
Eddie is upset. Dude, let me tell you.
Bobby Bones
You're not upset. I'm never getting my money.
Lunchbox
Also, yes. Stop saying that. We will get our money.
Bobby Bones
Money.
Morgan
We will a tko.
Amy
Boxing.
Morgan
What?
Bobby Bones
No, no, it's wrestling and ufc.
Morgan
When they bought the ufc, I came to you guys and said, we need to buy that. We are up 73% on that stock.
Bobby Bones
Did we get in on that?
Morgan
Just you? Yes, we all did.
Bobby Bones
I'd like all my money back.
Lunchbox
So we're up on a different stock?
Morgan
Yeah, up 73%.
Amy
But you guys are making.
Bobby Bones
How much do we put in there?
Lunchbox
Please don't tell me.
Morgan
$100.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
It's.
Morgan
Market value right now is 197 bucks. We're up $83.64. But, I mean, that's another one I found. I mean, guys, I'm just saying, I may have found my niche.
Bobby Bones
Hey, Ray, the Royal Caribbean tip you.
Morgan
Gave me, not as good as Nvidia.
Bobby Bones
Way better than Nvidia.
Morgan
It is not. Up 59%. There's no chance.
Bobby Bones
I mean, look, my total percent change is 76%. That's pretty unreal. I gotta get props to my buddy Danny in Fort Lauderdale. He sees him come in every day. He knew it was gonna boom. Look at this. Look at that. The thing's gone up. That looks.
Amy
Ray, do you have that one, too?
Lunchbox
Steady climb right there.
Bobby Bones
A much smaller amount than Bones.
Lunchbox
That's what you want. Steady climb.
Morgan
A lot smaller amount.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Nvidia. Mine is at 45%. Royal Caribbean's up. I was wrong, Ray. It's up 764% since I bought it.
Amy
What?
Bobby Bones
Not 76. Seven hundred and seven times your money. DraftKings is up 139%.
Amy
Dang. That's awesome.
Bobby Bones
Costco, about that. Five, five percent. Everything's up at least. Like, all green. That's my niche. All green, green, green, green, green. Bitcoin. When I bought bitcoin, my total percent change. 214. That one's awesome. I need to cash that one out.
Amy
Who needs a 401k?
Bobby Bones
Buy me some baseball cards or something. What's up?
Amy
Who needs a 401k, man? You just do that.
Bobby Bones
I like my money back. So, Amy, I need you to, like, be the second person I don't want. Just buy me out.
Lunchbox
I don't want to do that.
Amy
Why not?
Bobby Bones
Just buy me out. You can do it together. Because I don't want him to have my money anymore.
Lunchbox
Why?
Bobby Bones
Because it's hard to get anything back from him.
Lunchbox
Well, we don't want it back right now.
Bobby Bones
I do. I would like it back. I'm having some money troubles.
Amy
It's a tough time right now.
Lunchbox
Exactly why I'm just gonna ignore this.
Bobby Bones
I'm having some money troubles. I like my cash.
Lunchbox
You're fine. Trust me.
Bobby Bones
Okay, Morgan.
Scuba Steve
Oh, okay. So you guys know when people go and fix, like, stoplights, and you see, like, one of those mechanical arms up there. You guys know what I'm talking about?
Amy
This is my story, is it not?
Bobby Bones
No.
Amy
No. Let me tell you something. I have three stories now because Morgan always steals my stories. So now I got backups.
Bobby Bones
What I'll start doing is generically going to somebody first. Okay.
Amy
I like it.
Bobby Bones
It doesn't matter who. Randomly. I'll just go to somebody different. Not generically. Just randomly. Okay.
Morgan
And should we just yell? That was my story.
Amy
No, I'm telling you.
Bobby Bones
But you do that in games when somebody picks up your do that. I know, but I know, Eddie, don't do that anymore. Just go to your next story forever. All right, Morgan.
Scuba Steve
Okay, so anyways, you guys know those mechanical arms when they do a stoplight and they're going to fix the stoplight? Do you guys all know what I'm talking about? And there's a worker in it, and, like, they kind of have a worker on the ground who stops other people from driving around it. Well, an 18 wheeler apparently didn't see this happen. And he smashed right into the arm. And then the arm flips, and the guy is, like, dangling from this arm.
Bobby Bones
No, this is not the truck's fault.
Amy
No, no, no.
Bobby Bones
It's. They should have got out on the road and made sure nobody came through because. Yeah, the bucket's up, and a car's not going to hit it, but an 18 wheeler does and hits the bottom of the bucket, and the guy is like. It nails him. Yeah.
Amy
You got to block that road.
Bobby Bones
Yes. Somebody has to even put a cone up. Yeah. It's crazy. The horrifying moment. An 18 wheeler crashes into a worker in a bucket truck. Yeah.
Scuba Steve
And thankfully, he's. He didn't even have to go to the worker. Didn't have to go to the hospital because they have him harnessed in.
Bobby Bones
So he.
Scuba Steve
But that, like, imagine being dangled upside down just in front of an entire inter.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that sucks. That's. And that's not the trucker's fault.
Amy
No, it's not. I don't even think the truck stopped. He had no idea. He did.
Bobby Bones
He pulled over to the side. Yeah, he pulled. Oh, yeah. Could you feel something?
Amy
Hear a sound maybe, like.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, because he had hard. He pulled over to the side. I'm watching right now. Yeah, that's it. All right, Eddie, do you have anything?
Amy
Yeah, I have a backup story.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Amy
Actually, it's pretty good.
Bobby Bones
The.
Amy
These security guards are speaking on buzzfeed about who they've kind of been with celebrities that they've been with. So they're kind of saying, like, here. Are the good ones here hooked up. No, no, no. Who they've just, like, got hired to protect while they're in town.
Bobby Bones
Got it.
Amy
So John Cena is the one that came up.
Bobby Bones
So it's security. That what you said? Security.
Amy
Like, security guards, whatever. There. So one was talking about John Cena, and I saw it on the list. I'm like, oh, no. Like, we all think John Cena is, like, awesome.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
Because we've heard all awesome stuff.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
Well, this guy said he was awesome. He said that he was driving him around and he saw a bunch of fans, and he said, look, dude, I'm really sorry. Can we stop real quick? And I know we're in a hurry, but can we meet some of these fans?
Bobby Bones
Probably make a wish, kids. Bunch of them at once, probably. Yep.
Amy
And then he said he signed autographs for everyone. And then at the end, he said, hey, dude, thank you again. I really apologize for that. You gave him a Snickers bar.
Bobby Bones
But probably another tip, too.
Amy
But just on top of me, like, dude, here, take this. I'm sorry we had to do that.
Bobby Bones
That's a good one. Give me another one.
Amy
Another one is Robert Duvall. You know, he's the actor.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Old guy, Right?
Amy
Old guy. Security guard said he is awesome. He's so cool. He always has a book with him. He reads the whole time. And then when he goes out, goes out to eat, he does a log of, like, restaurant was okay. Probably never come back to this one again. That's pretty funny.
Bobby Bones
That's fun. Give me one more.
Amy
Adam Lambert.
Bobby Bones
I imagine he'd be difficult.
Amy
Difficult. He said that he drove him around. He said, look, unless you see a thousand people bothering me, stay the beep away from me, okay? What, like, don't even need you around me.
Bobby Bones
Humans talk to other humans that way, just in general.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Regardless if you're paying him or not. Like, that sucks.
Amy
You want to hear Eminem?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I bet he was just quiet, but fine.
Amy
Quiet, but so nice.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I've had people that have worked with him, and they say the same thing. Like, he doesn't go out of play to be nice, but he's also not not nice. He's just like, I'm here.
Amy
This is a cool one. Real quick.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
Kicks Brooks.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's super nice.
Amy
Kicks Brooks. So this guy said, I was working security backstage. Kicks. Brooks came in normal clothes, and he said, hey, man, I need to get back there. He's like, where's your pads? Like, I don't have one on me. He said, well, no pass. Can't come here. He's like, okay, all right. And he walked away. He came back with another, I guess his manager, whatever, said, this is the artist.
Bobby Bones
And he that was cool. It kicks not to be like, don't you know who I am?
Amy
That's what I thought. And he said after the show he came back and apologized. Hey, dude, I'm so sorry I didn't have my pass. I'm sure that was hard for you, but thanks for doing your job.
Bobby Bones
That's good.
Amy
I like in that.
Bobby Bones
Cool.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones

Parker McCollum
Thank you, guys.
Bobby Bones
How tall are you?
Parker McCollum
Six three.
Bobby Bones
You're a giant. Are you growing? Are you still at age. Young enough where you're still growing?
Parker McCollum
I'm a growing boy.
Bobby Bones
You're.
Lunchbox
Are you at that age where you'll grow? I don't know, growing it, like.
Bobby Bones
Like. I mean, look how you.
Parker McCollum
Like, 19.
Bobby Bones
Look how youthful he looks still. And every time I see him, I feel like he's taller. When you put boots on, six, five.
Parker McCollum
It definitely goes from six three to a higher number. I don't know what exactly, but I.
Bobby Bones
Was talking to Parker at the ACMs, and we were. It's that time in commercials, everybody stands up and so, like, I really like Parker, and I know Parker, so I don't feel the need to have to go and spend 10 minutes with him in the middle of an award show. It's that, you know, because we. And so real quick, it's like, hey, and he hugs me, but he hugs down on me.
Lunchbox
What do you mean by down? He's tall.
Bobby Bones
Because he's so tall.
Parker McCollum
Yeah, I was looking for more than a hug.
Lunchbox
Okay, well, that's what it sounded like.
Bobby Bones
He lifted me up and let my legs dangle.
Lunchbox
Okay, I get it now.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, He. He hugged down on me. He's a big old boy.
Lunchbox
But, Bobby, you're six one.
Bobby Bones
But if he's in boots, he's six. Help. What is it? Five?
Parker McCollum
Yeah, probably close to it. Six, four, six, five. Something like that.
Bobby Bones
I'll show you my id. It says six one on it. Thoughts?
Parker McCollum
I believe you.
Bobby Bones
Thank you.
Lunchbox
Don't. Don't believe him.
Bobby Bones
Why are you. Why are you hating right now?
Lunchbox
Well, because we know that you're not exactly my friend.
Bobby Bones
Why are you doing it to my friend? Hey, Parker, what is the song of yours that fans scream the loudest?
Parker McCollum
Like a cowboy stoned. Probably handle on. You.
Bobby Bones
You just. You did three songs.
Parker McCollum
I was going through the ones that they really like.
Bobby Bones
Got it. So handle on. You scream the loudest.
Parker McCollum
I think so.
Bobby Bones
Now you're saying you don't think so?
Parker McCollum
No, I would think so. That's probably the one.
Bobby Bones
Does it move in stages, meaning in a year from now or a year prior, it was a different song?
Parker McCollum
It kind of does, I think, like, Pretty Heart. Even, like, two or three years after Pretty Heart came out, that was still, like, the really big one, which we. We've had songs that weren't singles that were never on the radio that feel like they were number ones on on at the show, But I think handle on you is the one that gets the biggest reaction.
Bobby Bones
If you were allowed to steal one song from another artist catalog and now you wrote it, but you didn't. But you. But you. You now you wrote it in a different timeline, what would that song be?
Parker McCollum
Any artist.
Bobby Bones
Any song. Any song. But now Parker McCollum, the. The world knows you is writing that song.
Parker McCollum
Golly, that'd be a long list. Probably nobody in their right mind. George Strait.
Bobby Bones
Oh, it's a jam going. You're going mid. Mid. I won't say deep cut, but mid cut on George strait, because that's a good one. Yeah, but I. So the writer, though, probably wasn't George, right?
Parker McCollum
No, I think Dean wrote that.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You are a. I say this. You're a great writer.
Parker McCollum
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
Do you ever write a lyric and maybe it's like, what lyric do you. Have you written? And you're like, yep, that's the bar right there. Like, that's a bar.
Parker McCollum
I always liked the line. And in hell of a year I smoke you away and then you drink till you drown. I've always thought that was the bar.
Bobby Bones
Did that fall out of you, or was that crafted out of you?
Parker McCollum
No, that just, you know, the way I write songs, I literally just. I say this all the time. I don't think people believe me, but, you know, I just play guitar until I sing a melody that I think is, you know, as melodies numero uno for me. And once I have a melody, then I just literally just start spitting things out and try to freestyle over the melody and just sing crafty, poetic things and. And whatever's kind of on my. On my mind or on my brain.
Bobby Bones
So do you record when you're doing that so you don't miss something?
Parker McCollum
I do not all the time, but I've learned my lesson. So.
Bobby Bones
Ever have something you're like, man, this is so good. I'm like, write it down right now for sure. I'll remember it.
Parker McCollum
And then you're like, so many.
Bobby Bones
Oh, my God, I can't remember it.
Parker McCollum
So many times. So many times. The iPhone probably saved my songwriting career.
Bobby Bones
I wonder how many grammys for all those great ideas you would have won by now.
Parker McCollum
Well, I've actually thought about putting out, like, a record of just iPhone recordings. Just super raw.
Bobby Bones
Like the voice memo or, like, the work tape. IPhone.
Parker McCollum
Just the voice memos.
Bobby Bones
That would be really weird because it's mostly just you going, well, I mean.
Parker McCollum
Like, you write the song. I'll usually, like, record It. Because I usually, like, send it to my brother or send it to, you know, somebody and be like, hey, check this out. I just wrote this. It's really good.
Bobby Bones
So it's. It's a full song then. It's just you.
Parker McCollum
You just have to be very careful.
Bobby Bones
Chasing a melody.
Parker McCollum
You have to really be sure you didn't put any, you know, of the wrong voice memos on there.
Lunchbox
Oh.
Bobby Bones
What else are you saying?
Parker McCollum
I could go south quick.
Bobby Bones
Hey, it's Parker. What are you wearing?
Parker McCollum
No, I just, you know, I like grocery. Listen, I. I don't know. I just. There's some. It's probably for off air, but yeah, there's some.
Bobby Bones
Hey, then don't say it. I would encourage you not to say it. If it's rough, say it when there's not a microphone in front of you.
Parker McCollum
I got some pretty good voice memo pranks that I pull.
Bobby Bones
You have a definite, like, cool cowboy energy. But what's the least cowboy thing about you?
Parker McCollum
I don't know. I love, like, really fast cars.
Bobby Bones
Do you have any?
Parker McCollum
I do.
Bobby Bones
This is when you say what you have. Give me one.
Parker McCollum
I have a C8Z06 Corvette.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I don't really know what that is.
Parker McCollum
And it's very fast. And I've got a Hellcat, red eye, wide body, Dodge Challenger. I had a. I had a C706-7 speed manual, but I sold it to my neighbor two houses down.
Bobby Bones
So did he see it and want it?
Parker McCollum
He did.
Bobby Bones
Do you get him for a little extra to autograph that? Like the trunk?
Parker McCollum
And I sold it to him for 10 grand more than I bought it 2016.
Bobby Bones
So. Wow.
Amy
Is that the neighbor with a good lawn?
Parker McCollum
No, that's not. The guy with a good lawn is not my neighbor. He lives on the other side of the. Of the. The area. So he's become a good buddy now, though.
Bobby Bones
Are you a good lawn guy, though, now, where you notice and respect a good lawn?
Parker McCollum
I don't have as much time to go to my ranch now. And so I've gotten super into my grass, man. I'm like the. The good lawn guy, Mr. Mr. Brian Kotowski, who's. Who has incredible grass and is help me get my grass to where his grass is. He was like, man, you're just a pair of new balances away from really being a real dad. And I was like, I'm gonna stick.
Bobby Bones
With the Nikes for now.
Parker McCollum
For now.
Bobby Bones
You're stranded at Bucky's. You got 20 bucks. What do you get?
Parker McCollum
I'm probably Gonna get the. They have like, this little orange chicken burrito thing. I used to eat all the time. We were. When we toured in a van back in the day, like, I mean, we would, like, do our taxes at the end of the year sometimes, and. And like, these people would kill us. And they'd be like, what are. What is BUC EE's? Why are y' all spending thousands of dollars at Bucky's a year? We've stopped there so much. And I would always. Yeah, there's like. It's like an orange chicken burrito thing. I don't even know what it's called, but I would hammer one every time.
Bobby Bones
Why would you self title this album that came out today when it is not your first album?
Parker McCollum
I didn't know that that was the rule for that.
Bobby Bones
I wouldn't say rule. I would just say common.
Parker McCollum
I don't know. Frank Liddell, the producer, was really the. Was the first one to bring it up. And then Sarah Dodd, who did the artwork for the record, she was the one. She wanted to just. She was like, what if you just called it Parker? And I was like, I like that. But, you know, I don't know if that's a good idea. And. But the real reason is I just didn't. You know, I didn't have, like, a great album title I was in love with. I didn't have, like, a cool concept or anything. I had a few of them, had some notes I'd made, but. And this record, just super. I don't know. I feel like I finally figured it out after all these years.
Bobby Bones
What's that mean?
Parker McCollum
You know, it's. This is the album I always wondered if I was good enough to make. You know, I put out my first record, The Limestone Kid 2015, and it just blew up for us in Texas and kind of the red dirt scene. And so we were selling a bunch of tickets right away, and it's just been so good since it very first started. And. And. And, you know, I didn't want to just be the Limestone Kid forever. I wanted to go out and I wanted to come to Nashville and sign a record deal. I wanted to do the big business side of it and be an entertainer and just see what that world was like. And. And I did it. And then I kind of got bored with it, and I was like, man, I'm gonna go back to just, you know, kind of the old way of doing things. Like, I started. And, you know, this is super personal record. It's super raw. And we really just hit Record and recorded the songs and didn't do any. Do anything really special and just felt like a great time to kind of just have it be the real me.
Bobby Bones
There's a song, if I'm going to pick one, just to kind of highlight that I liked. And I think I really liked the song, but also really like the writers, because I know the writers. I know. But it's hope that I'm Enough with Matt Jenkins and Jesse Alexander. You also wrote the song. Like, I love this song. Ray, would you play Hope that I'm enough?
Parker McCollum
Sitting on the couch at the house. Our dog Ruger, he's a chocolate lab. He was laying on the couch. My wife, Halle, Ray and I. And I was just playing guitar, kind of messing around, and. And I heard her say, ruger, I can feel you breathing on me as a hot dog breath, you know, on her neck. And so I just started singing, I can feel you breathing. And I wrote that. Those first two verses and that. That kind of chorus hook thing just right there, like, instantly. And then Matt and Jesse were at the house probably a few weeks later, and I played it for him. I said, hey, we should finish this. And I hate co writing, so, like, any. I would rather just be like, hey, just help me finish this. Instead of hours trying to come up with a song. I really don't like doing that. So it's a. Halle Ray is like, as good as God can make a woman. I mean, she's just so unbelievably pure and a very, very great person to write songs about. So. And she's always asking me. She's like, are you ever gonna write songs about love going right and being happy? And I'm like, I don't know about being happy, but there's actually a couple songs on this record that or good love songs, I think.
Bobby Bones
And I don't. I can let you tell me what this is. I want to do one more song that you did write by yourself. It was permanent headphones. And so, Ray, would you play a little bit of that, please?
Parker McCollum
Why that one, man? I wrote that song when I was 15, and I wasn't gonna cut it on the record. I really wasn't even thinking about it. And Eric Massey, the engineer, and Frank Liddell the producer had heard me kind of playing around. I was just messing around playing guitar and. And they heard me singing it and they were like, you know, what in the world is that? And I was like, man, I wrote that when I was 15. I cut it on when I was 20 years old. I cut a four song EP in Austin. My very first ever recorded anything. And it never really had any life. It never really. No one ever really knew about that, those four songs or that EP or anything. And they asked me to cut it and I just said no and no and no. And I just didn't want to go back there, you know. I wrote that song in a Jack in the Box parking lot when I was 15 years old. And that was the first song I ever wrote that my older brother was like, yeah, you're a songwriter. And so it's always been a pretty special song to me. I just never thought that it would live again. I kind of thought it was dead and gone and, you know, just. I never thought I would have another life. And then here it is on my fifth studio album.
Bobby Bones
How do you feel hearing it?
Parker McCollum
You know, it's the only song on the record I didn't listen to. When, when I was listening to mixes and stuff, I just told him, I said, do whatever you want with it. I didn't want to listen to it and want to hear it. Super emotional when I listened to it. And I finally, one day this past, it's kind of like Christmas time, deer season. I was driving to the ranch and. And I put it on and I got like teary eyed. Like, I get teary eyed right now talking about. It's crazy. That song like hits me so hard because I was, I was, I wanted to be a songwriter so bad then and. And I was always trying to write songs that my older brother would think were, you know, good and a real, you know, all the stuff I was writing at that age was pretty elementary and just not very complete. And I remember sitting in my room at the house and he had come home from college and I played it for him and he was like, wow. And getting that reaction from him, I was like, okay, that's what a good song is. Those are the kind of songs I need to write. So when we cut it and then, you know, I would listen to the entire record, listen to the mixes and going back and forth, except for that one. And I think it turned out great. I think you did the song justice.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I do too.
Parker McCollum
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I just think about anything that I did at 15, I would listen to it with a different ear because I know how well you could do a lot of things, how immature I was as a person, how amateur I was as a writer. Immature. But. But it also was fundamental to everything else that's on the record. What you've said is the Record that you always wanted to try to make. So it's kind of the beginning of all of the rest of it and it's really cool.
Parker McCollum
There's a song on the record called New York is on Fire and I wrote it in the studio. The second day we were there, me and Adam, who played some acoustic guitar on the record, we sat on the floor and wrote New York is on Fire. And so my newest song and my oldest song are back to back on the record. It's kind of cool.
Bobby Bones
That's pretty cool. What kind of kid were you? You just say 15. What kind of kid were you in school?
Parker McCollum
I should have been really good at school. I just didn't apply myself. I was pretty lazy, you know, my parents split when I was really young. My dad lived in California for, for a while, so I was live with my mom and, and I was the youngest. So my brother and sister were in college when I was in high school and you know, I was just, I don't know, I was kind of a.
Bobby Bones
Punk troublemaker or just not listener.
Parker McCollum
No, I was a pretty good listener. I never really got in trouble. I just wasn't incredibly ambitious. You know, I was just kind of floating through and you know. Have you ever seen the movie Daisy? Confused? You know, Pink.
Amy
Pink Floyd. Randall. Pink Floyd.
Parker McCollum
Yes. That, you know, he's the quarterback and he doesn't want to sign the contract and he just wants to chill and kick it all the time. That was me.
Lunchbox
So was that frustrating for those around you that saw your potential?
Parker McCollum
I don't really think anybody saw any potential, really. I mean, you think about it when a 15, 16 year old kid tells you he's not going to go to college because he's going to be a country singer, Everybody kind of rolls their eyes, okay, that's funny. And so, but I just knew, I was like, you know, that, like that's. That. That was probably the first like fire that was lit in my belly to go be really ambitious and be like, all right, I'm gonna prove everybody wrong.
Bobby Bones
You talk about your brother kind of giving you the blessing of, hey, I think you got something in you. Who was an artist that did that for you later on that you looked up?
Parker McCollum
I looked up to Randy Rogers for sure, from the Randy Rogers band. I was a huge fan of him as a kid. My mom loved his record Roller Coaster and I put out the Limestone kid. And then probably, probably a year later we were playing with him in Corpus Christi and you know, he was. We were first of four and he was Headlining that night. Sold out. Big show, like 10, 000 people. And after the show, he was like, man, I'd love to manage you. And you know, he's like, I think you got it. You know, you could go be a star and all the stuff. And he was really one of the first artists that was like, kind of took me under his wing. And he was my manager for two.
Bobby Bones
Three years while he was also being Randy Rogers, the performer.
Parker McCollum
Yes, sir.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's pretty cool. I want to say this too, just because in case he's listening, I know I said this to you privately. Your dad's awesome. And your dad's jacked.
Parker McCollum
Thank you. He's gonna love that.
Lunchbox
He is, like, jacked. Like ripped.
Amy
Ripped.
Parker McCollum
He is ripped.
Bobby Bones
You don't want to mess with that dude. Except he look, he has a kind face and he's very kind. But from when? Before, you can see his kindness. You see his massive arms and shoulders and you go, don't wanna mess with that dude.
Parker McCollum
Yeah, yeah, he's gonna love that. You talked about his arms and shoulders.
Bobby Bones
And shoulders.
Parker McCollum
Shoulders are part of the arms, right.
Bobby Bones
I didn't really spend much time looking at the legs. I don't know if he does leg day or not.
Parker McCollum
He has incredible calves.
Amy
Wow.
Bobby Bones
Yep. So, yeah, I just wanted to say, Parker's dad, if you're listening, Goals.
Parker McCollum
Yeah, he's. He's gonna love that way too much more than he should.
Bobby Bones
The album's out today. It is called Parker McCollum. What kind of man is the song right now? That's killing it. Always love seeing you. Are you in town? Because you don't live here anymore? Are you in town? Like, when you get here, do you. Is it nonstop for a couple days, just hitting everything?
Parker McCollum
Hammer time?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Parker McCollum
Do it all.
Bobby Bones
Do you wake up early and go to bed late?
Parker McCollum
Sometimes. I'm kind of out of my groove right now. We've been off the road, so I've been kind of out of my regular routine. So I'm kind of just floating through the wind. And we're about to go crazy. Like, new album, new tour, the whole deal. It's about to get so wild. So it's just like staring in the face.
Bobby Bones
So what's going to be so wild?
Parker McCollum
Just the. The amount of stuff that we will be doing.
Bobby Bones
Any explosions on stage?
Parker McCollum
No, no explosions. We're going a lot more simple production for this tour, you know, no pyro, no smoke. Just kind of cutting it all back and making sure it's about the songs, you know?
Bobby Bones
We had Tim McGraw and we were talking about paper umbrellas. That's cool. Not really question, but that's cool.
Parker McCollum
That was cool. Yeah, I just, I've loved Tim McGraw my whole life. I mean, he just. So many good songs, so many good country songs. And so to get to do a song with him was cool.
Bobby Bones
Parker, good to see you, man.
Parker McCollum
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
Congratulations on the record. Congratulations. And I can say this. I'm looking. Here's the. Here's the thing, though. Like, your tour's got all these things like this sold out. This sold out. So the tour doesn't need help. But I will say that you can go to parkermcollum.com his 2025 tour. I did do my fingers because I don't know the months.
Parker McCollum
That's awesome.
Bobby Bones
Is it? He looked at me like he would a 4 year old. Like, I'm a pretty intelligent guy. Except for when it comes to months on my fingers, I still.
Parker McCollum
Way to go, Bobby.
Lunchbox
It's like the one thing I've got on you.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
I can't name the number. I'll tell you the month. I don't need my fingers.
Bobby Bones
Dang. Flex. I gotta do that on me right now. All the way up until the end of the year. Go, go see Parker live. Incredible live performer. Parkermccallum.com Parker, good to see you. There he is. Parker McCullum, everybody.
Parker McCollum
Appreciate y' all.
Amy
Bones.
Bobby Bones
Okay, before we leave.
Amy
Do you want.
Bobby Bones
To talk about everyday millionaires, or have we done enough money talk?
Amy
Nah, I think money talks great.
Bobby Bones
There is a group of people called everyday millionaires. Now it's those with wealth between 1 million and 5 million.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
And everyday millionaires, that's soaring. But a lot of those people say they don't feel rich. And then that's the new middle class. Between one and five million.
Amy
Okay.
Morgan
Okay.
Amy
Give me a break. The new middle class, like, that feels stupid. It's so dumb.
Bobby Bones
That feels stupid.
Morgan
Yeah, that's really dumb.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
Makes the rest of us feel terrible.
Bobby Bones
Hey, that's. I mean, that means you're low. I mean, you're low class.
Amy
But how are they saying that you feel like you don't feel rich? Like, I feel like.
Lunchbox
Well, I think that they're spent. Like also you have to take a look at. I think there's a lot you end up spending money on.
Bobby Bones
Well, the richer you get, the more you spend because you feel like you have more. You don't have to spend money just because you make more money.
Amy
Right. But the fact that you're spending More money. You should feel rich because you have the money to spend.
Bobby Bones
I understand your loss.
Amy
Right?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I always think it's weird when people are like, well, I make money, so I got to spend more money. Shut up. You don't. You can live the same lifestyle you were living before you got rich. You don't. That was a big thing in the NBA in, like, the 90s. They're like, yeah, we make a lot of money, but we spend a lot of money. You don't have to.
Amy
That is so dumb.
Bobby Bones
You don't have to. Yeah. They're called everyday millionaires, so it's something else to be irritated at when they get upset about how they don't feel rich despite their wealth, many of these millionaires don't feel rich. Some, they say, are house poor because they buy such expensive houses.
Amy
Well, and then you got to upkeep the house.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. But again, they make the decision to do that.
Amy
But your house alone should make you feel rich. If it's a nice house, you should feel rich.
Bobby Bones
But if you're struggling to pay all of your upkeep of your house because you bought too much of a house, no, you know, you don't feel rich, and that's your fault. That's all on you. It's like buying a car that you can't afford to fix. If it breaks, you can afford the car, but can you fix it when it breaks?
Amy
Right.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Amy
Some of those, like real expensive cars, the oil changes are ridiculous.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. So they say wealth accumulation doesn't always translate to financial security or a sense of abundance. That's because you're making bad decisions.
Lunchbox
Your motto needs to be make more, spend less.
Bobby Bones
Well, that also feels stupid, but I do like the idea of it. Yes. Thank you, guys. We'll see you guys on Monday. Hope you have a great week. What?
Lunchbox
That's sort of my motto at the beginning of the year now that if there's a reason.
Bobby Bones
If there's a reason. Yes.
Lunchbox
That's so stupid.
Bobby Bones
No, no. If there's a reason. Yes.
Amy
I live by that one, too, Amy.
Bobby Bones
I do. But if you make more and you spend less, you're probably doing that because you're in a place that you need to make some fixes.
Lunchbox
I think it was just a challenge to myself of, like, this could. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Or make the same. Spend less would be something.
Lunchbox
Yes, yes. Just find ways. Because some save money.
Bobby Bones
Made money is what I say.
Lunchbox
That's. Yes, There you go.
Bobby Bones
You save money. Same thing as making it. Because that's money that you usually don't have that. Now you do a little extra save money 1 mine to video money. What's up?
Amy
What about takes money to make money? I've heard that one.
Morgan
Yeah, that one.
Bobby Bones
That does. It also takes money to lose money.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Rich get richer.
Amy
I like that one, Amy.
Bobby Bones
Rich get richer. That's true too.
Amy
I like saying that one too. Like around people like rich always gets.
Bobby Bones
Richer because they have money. It takes money to make money. That's where those two combined.
Lunchbox
Unless you are house broke.
Bobby Bones
House poor.
Lunchbox
House poor, whatever it's called.
Morgan
You know what they say.
Bobby Bones
What do they say?
Morgan
Rich gets the bit.
Lunchbox
What?
Bobby Bones
Nobody says that.
Morgan
I do.
Amy
Did you just make that up?
Lunchbox
What is the Rick. Rich gets the biscuit.
Morgan
No, no, no, no.
Amy
I've never once get for the biscuit.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I've never once heard rich gets the B word.
Amy
No either.
Lunchbox
That's why I didn't even know. That's the fill in the blank.
Bobby Bones
All right, we're done. Mike, you ever heard that one? No. I've heard what the poor get. Yeah.
Lunchbox
What?
Bobby Bones
F'd. Wait, what? What are you saying? Poor get the. The W. I didn't know her. Poor get the whore.
Amy
Oh, that's terrible.
Lunchbox
What are these things?
Bobby Bones
Came up with those same place lunchboxes. I think they just rhyme. I think people just say stuff because it rhymes.
Lunchbox
How about just like.
Amy
We'Re good. We're good.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Maybe don't try to improv sayings.
Lunchbox
Yeah, that never goes well for me.

Bobby Bones kicks off the episode with a fun and engaging game segment where he challenges his co-hosts and participants to guess which celebrity he recently encountered in an unexpected setting. The game involves 20 yes-or-no questions, fostering lively interaction and teamwork among the hosts: Lunchbox, Amy, Morgan, and Scuba Steve.
Throughout the game, the participants ask strategic questions to narrow down the identity of the celebrity. Amy successfully deduces that Bobby ran into Colby Kelly from the band Gone West, earning her a dollar prize.
Amy: "She played a Bobby cast. She's in our studio." (12:01)
Bobby Bones: "She was super nice. Even though she thought it was, like, a random fan attacking her, she was still very nice to that random fan attacking her." (14:20)
This segment not only entertains but also provides a glimpse into Bobby's off-stage interactions with fellow artists.

The conversation shifts to a broader discussion about wealth, focusing on the concept of "everyday millionaires." These are individuals with assets ranging from $1 million to $5 million who paradoxically often do not feel financially secure or "rich."
Bobby Bones: "A group of people called everyday millionaires. Now it's those with wealth between 1 million and 5 million." (53:48)
Amy: "It makes the rest of us feel terrible." (54:20)
The hosts delve into why many millionaires feel this way, attributing it to lifestyle inflation—where increased income leads to increased spending rather than saving or investing wisely.
Lunchbox: "I think there's a lot you end up spending money on." (54:38)
Bobby Bones: "The richer you get, the more you spend because you feel like you have more." (54:44)
They emphasize the importance of financial discipline, advocating for the mantra "make more, spend less" to ensure that wealth accumulation translates into true financial security.

The conversation also touches on Parker's personal life, including his interactions with his supportive family and his admiration for mentors like Randy Rogers.

The hosts dive into a dynamic discussion about the stock market, focusing on high-profile figures like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, and their influence on various industries. They analyze current stock performances, particularly those of Nvidia and Royal Caribbean, sharing real-time investment updates and personal investment strategies.
Morgan: "I'm up 59.7% on Nvidia." (21:54)
Bobby Bones: "Mine's up 2%. I bought at the exact same time." (22:07)
The conversation highlights the volatile nature of the stock market, the excitement of rapid gains, and the underlying anxiety about potentially losing investments.
Amidst the financial talk, the hosts also engage in light-hearted banter about their investment decisions and planning for future financial security.
Timestamp: 53:48 - 57:59
Closing the episode, Bobby and his co-hosts revisit the topic of everyday millionaires, critiquing the societal attitudes towards wealth and spending.
