Question. What's the best and worst way to communicate with friends? Obviously, it's messaging. Messaging is great, but it can also go off the rails when I speak on a group chat. I want it to be easy without any issues. WhatsApp can help. You can message privately with everyone and you can edit messages, create polls, do pinned messages and send invites. Plus you can send photos and videos and they look better. It's time for WhatsApp message privately with everyone. Streaming Sunday, October 26th on Paramount.

Better Picks Sports just got better. Hello America's sweetheart. Johnny Knoxville here. I want to tell you about my new true crime podcast, Crimeless Hillbilly Heist from Smartless Media, campside Media and big money players. It's a wild tale about a gang of high functioning nitwits who somehow pulled off America's third largest cash heist.
Eddie
Kind of like Robin Hood, except for.
Lunchbox
The part where he steals from the rich and gives to the poor. I'm not that generous.
Bobby Bones
It's a damn near inspiring true story for anyone out there who's ever shot for the moon, then just totally muffed up the landing. They stole $17 million and had not bought a ticket to help him escape. So we're sitting like, oh God, what do we do?
Lunchbox
What do we do? That was dumb. People do not follow my example.

This is the Bobby Bones Show.
Bobby Bones
To get to a couple voicemails. Now, these are about Lunchbox and prices, Right? They didn't know yet that Lunchbox didn't make the show, but here we go.
Annie Bosco
Number one here in Lunchbox. Talk about a car. If he didn't get on today, tell.
Bobby Bones
The producers his car broke down and.
Annie Bosco
He hasn't had a car for two years and he really wants to win a car. That's a suggestion.
Amy
Love the show, guys.
Bobby Bones
Great angle.
Eddie
That's a great story.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Instead you said, I. I'm here so you guys can entertain me.
Eddie
I've been entertaining.
Lunchbox
I entertain millions. Every morning it's my turn to sit.
Bobby Bones
Back and watch the show.
Eddie
Yeah, that was a weird one. Entertain.
Lunchbox
Like I said, it didn't come out the way I wanted it to. Like, in my head, it ain't a.
Bobby Bones
Suit, it's a tux. Idiot.
Eddie
Dummy.
Lunchbox
He did say, oh, you're in a suit again. One guy. And I said, that's a tux.
Bobby Bones
Oh, man.
Lunchbox
Like, so you're just supposed to not.
Bobby Bones
Correct someone like, it doesn't matter.
Eddie
It doesn't matter.
Bobby Bones
It doesn't matter. And those are the people you need to pick you. So you just ruffle us a little. Yeah.
Eddie
Like Amy said, just say thanks. Appreciate it.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Hope you like it.
Lunchbox
Glad you remember it. Yeah. Dang it.
Bobby Bones
Give me. Give me the number three.
Annie Bosco
I'm dying over here. Laughing at the Lunchbox segment and his Netflix series, the price you would pay.
Bobby Bones
For the price is right.
Annie Bosco
I love it. Thank you, Lunchbox.
Amy
Even if you don't make it on.
Annie Bosco
The show, this has all been worth it.
Bobby Bones
He didn't make it.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So we won't spend a whole lot more time talking about how you didn't make it.
Lunchbox
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
But.
Lunchbox
I mean, it's still like, I. It still feels like a bad dream.
Bobby Bones
What about the night after you didn't make it? When you had to go back in a city that you didn't live in, in a hotel that probably wasn't as comfortable without the excitement and the long flight back home. Was it miserable?
Lunchbox
That's pretty miserable.
Bobby Bones
Was the airport, like, was that miserable? Like the flight, all of it.
Lunchbox
The flight. I was fine. I mean, I just kept thinking, man, I'm leaving Los Angeles and I didn't make it. Like, I came out here for one reason.
Bobby Bones
No. The opposite of the usa.
Eddie
But he sounds like he's an actor. Like he went to go make it and he's didn't make.
Bobby Bones
He spent three days trying to get on a game show. Dude that's trying to make it.
Lunchbox
I mean, it is. And I. And I will say that it's like it was exhausting.
Amy
Imagine for some. They've been there like 10 years trying to make it.
Lunchbox
I agree. Like, every restaurant I went to, I did think about that. I was like, did these guys move.
Bobby Bones
Here to just get on prices right and they still haven't.
Lunchbox
Well, not just prices.
Bobby Bones
Right.
Lunchbox
But like, did they move out here trying to make it and now they're just like a server or is this what they wanted to do?
Bobby Bones
They're probably. Some of them probably serving so they have a shot to make it. That's happening here, though, as well. Every time you go into a restaurant, it's a lot of the young people here are serving so they can try to make it in the music industry. Oh, like we had a waiter last night. We went and. And had dinner and he was a artist, like, trying to make it as an artist. He told you we could just tell. Oh, yeah, yeah. We just.
Lunchbox
I mean, you did have that one artist that one time. That guy that used to wait on you.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, no, he's got like three number ones now.
Lunchbox
What?
Amy
Yeah, Writing.
Eddie
He's no longer serving.
Bobby Bones
He's no longer serving.
Lunchbox
He wrote three number ones now?
Bobby Bones
I think so. Yeah. At least I know of two. Possibly three now.
Lunchbox
Wow. Yeah, because I know that he started millionaire now. That's crazy. That's cr. I don't remember his name, but I remember him.
Bobby Bones
Johnny Clausen. He wrote Llang Lee number one. Blake Shelton number one. That.
Lunchbox
What was the name?
Bobby Bones
Johnny Claussen.
Lunchbox
That's the guy that worked at the. The Frisco.
Bobby Bones
No, it's a different guy. Our other waiter.
Lunchbox
You've had multiple waiters go and, like, make it.
Eddie
Well, like I said, there's a lot of servers in town.
Lunchbox
That's weird.
Bobby Bones
One of them. He was our waiter. A place my wife and I went to a lot. He never told told us he was an artist. The whole. And we. We went that Same place for like a year. And he just nominated for a cma.
Amy
Wow.
Bobby Bones
Johnny is. That's crazy.
Eddie
Oh, really?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, for song of the year, he wrote it.
Eddie
Which one?
Bobby Bones
Texas. Blake Sheldon.
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah.
Bobby Bones
That's awesome. He worked. We'd see him every week. It's like our guy. And so he was like, hey, I'm not gonna be here next week. And we're like, oh, are you quitting? He's like, yeah. I said, I got a publishing deal. I'm gonna go and just full time write songs. We're like, you're a writer? Because. Yeah, I'm trying to be an artist writer. And I was like, man, I like, respect so much that you didn't, like, throw that at me the first time. Cause a lot of people do. And he was like, yeah, I just wanted you guys to have a good experience.
Lunchbox
So.
Bobby Bones
So then when I was doing my first comedically inspirational shows, I just invited him to come out and watch, but I brought him up to play without him knowing. And he played Eddie's guitar and he played. And then now he's written multiple number ones. Nominated for a cma, probably got a million bucks in his pocket.
Lunchbox
Dang. That's a step up. That's the life.
Bobby Bones
Well, that's the grind.
Lunchbox
Yeah. And that's what I felt like when I was out in LA for three days.
Amy
The grind. You weren't working, sampling margaritas.
Lunchbox
No, no.
Eddie
You were living a good life.
Lunchbox
It was a grind. I mean, it was exhausting. And after I would lay in bed, and this is weird to say, but I was like, you know what? I gotta give more respect to Bobby. Because when you used to say, oh, I'm so tired from Dancing with the Stars, I'm like, oh, come on. You know, man, I did it for three days and I was beat, beat. And you did it for like three months. And so I'm like, oh, maybe it was a little harder than I thought.
Eddie
You're comparing your Price is Right story to Bobby winning Dancing with the Stars?
Bobby Bones
Just the training part of it.
Lunchbox
The training of it. That's what I'm saying.
Bobby Bones
Do you feel like that you were doing the same, like, training? You just trained for three days?
Lunchbox
Yeah, like my mental focus for three days was at an all time high.
Eddie
Oh, boy.
Lunchbox
Dialed in.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
And I was. And I think the adrenaline and I was just like, I was so tired afterwards. And that's when I was like, okay, maybe I didn't give Bobby enough credit for how tiring it was to do Dancing with the Stars and work well, thanks, man. You're welcome. I'm just saying, like, from one person that grinded to another, I mean, we.
Bobby Bones
We understand basically grinding on each other right now.
Lunchbox
No, we're not.
Eddie
Two entertainers.
Lunchbox
We're not grinding on each other.
Bobby Bones
Two entertainers just grinding each other.
Lunchbox
No, we're not doing that. We're not doing that.
Bobby Bones
How disappointed are you? And do you think you'll become more disappointed as the days go by or have you maxed out disappointment? You're moving on.
Lunchbox
I think as the more the days go by, I'll get more disappointed. Right? Isn't that how it works? You're gonna sit there and go. And then a week, I'm gonna be like, why didn't I do this? And you're going to think of things you could have done or said or. I don't know.
Bobby Bones
What'd your wife say about it? Oh, you know, I mean, I save that. I just want to know, like, did she feel like you were. Did she. Was she disappointed in you?
Lunchbox
I don't think she was disappointed. She just felt bad for me.
Bobby Bones
Okay, that's good.
Lunchbox
Felt bad.
Bobby Bones
Did she think you'd get on?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Was she counting on you to get on maybe for, like, a little extra money?
Eddie
Oh, yeah.
Lunchbox
She thought it was a shoe in.
Bobby Bones
Like, a little Christmas money coming out of your way. You already probably already budgeted for it.
Lunchbox
She thought. She thought it was 100%.
Bobby Bones
That's nice.
Lunchbox
She's like, there's no doubt. Like, we were on the plane ride there, and I said, man, what if I don't get. And she goes, oh, you're getting on. First day. I was like, all right.
Amy
I feel like, you know, though, like, I'm thinking of, like, let's use George Burge an example. Like, his wife, she's been with them since they were in college. And all along the way, she's just believing and believing in, like, you. You're going to do this. You're going to make it. And now look at him. Like, now he's got number ones. But that's like your wife. Like, she's by your side, believing in you the entire time. So don't give up. And then you two could be.
Bobby Bones
That's a tough analogy, but okay, I see where you're going.
Annie Bosco
What?
Bobby Bones
George is someone who has, like, honed, crafted his skill. I know, but, like, gotten better through years of.
Amy
I know. I've just heard his wife talk about how, like, she was just. And even George, for that matter, like, she believed in him the entire time they've just been together for so long. She's seen the highs and the lows and she's.
Eddie
What are we talking about here?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, this is not the same.
Eddie
Him going to Prices, right, For three.
Bobby Bones
Days and his wife leaving. He gets lucky.
Amy
No, I'm saying. No, I'm not talking about the three days. I'm not comparing the work ethic, guys. I'm saying your wife should not give up on you. You should keep pursuing this dream.
Bobby Bones
I think she should give up on him. If I'm big, I think she should talk some sense. My wife talks sensitive to me sometimes about certain things, and I think this is one of those. She's like, yo, you just spent thousands of dollars going out to Prices, right? You didn't get on. Let's not do that again.
Eddie
Like, let it go.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, let's. Let's let that one go. Like, unless you get cast for the show, we don't fly out there and spend all the money until you get cast for the show.
Amy
Wow.
Annie Bosco
Wow.
Eddie
Well, you know, Amy, he's been trying this forever.
Bobby Bones
Like, no, no, he hasn't tried it all. No, I haven't, but I haven't tried it all.
Eddie
But he's talking about that. Ms.
Bobby Bones
Call that when he was like, 16, right?
Lunchbox
I was 21.
Amy
Yeah, like, but his wife believes in.
Bobby Bones
Him, guys, but giving up on him. He's just standing in line. It's not like he's getting better at something.
Amy
I bet a lot of men out there would say, like, yeah, because my wife stood by me.
Bobby Bones
And that's somebody who makes it through law school at some military, like, or.
Amy
Even for some women, it's like my. Because my husband believed in me and he was by my side encouraging me the entire time, like, and allowed me to chase my dreams, you know, because sometimes that's. That's a sacrifice.
Bobby Bones
That's like a partner telling him he's going to win the lottery. That's the same thing.
Amy
I was just trying to be encouraging.
Eddie
I mean, he did practice.
Amy
I just thought it was sweet that his wife.
Bobby Bones
How much does a gallon of milk cost?
Lunchbox
That is 479.
Bobby Bones
Are you just making that up or do you know?
Lunchbox
Oh, that's. That's what it is. Depending on what brand you get, that's a good average.
Bobby Bones
No, I don't, I don't know. I was asking for.
Eddie
In California, right? That's what he practiced.
Amy
That's a good answer.
Bobby Bones
What's. How much is California gallon of milk?
Annie Bosco
Milk.
Bobby Bones
California, like, not.
Amy
Not grass.
Eddie
479.
Bobby Bones
In California, it's. The average price in the United States is 322. And in California, it's over $5.
Eddie
Wow.
Amy
479.
Eddie
479. Pretty close. You didn't go over 522.
Bobby Bones
50 Cent.
Lunchbox
There you go.
Amy
479.
Eddie
Pretty good, dude.
Bobby Bones
50 cents, though, is a whole. It's a. It's kind of. When it's only $5.50 is. Sure. Yeah. But, hey, good for you, man.
Lunchbox
Thank you. I mean, don't give up. I mean, it's not like they're coming to town. They're not going to. They're not doing open casting calls.
Bobby Bones
It's crazy that when we did the Vegas one and there's, like, 500 people there, I got called down. I think about it. I did nothing. It was just.
Eddie
You didn't wear a tux.
Amy
Oh, say what? Say it again. It was what I did.
Bobby Bones
I did nothing.
Amy
And it was.
Bobby Bones
It was pure logic.
Amy
You're the luckiest people we know. Listen to me.
Bobby Bones
Listen to what I. Let me finish.
Eddie
In Vegas.
Amy
Say it louder.
Bobby Bones
In Vegas. I think there was just something about me.
Amy
Oh, yeah. Your demeanor.
Bobby Bones
Do you think I was lucky that I was. If they're looking for, you know, Bobby.
Amy
You said it, not me.
Bobby Bones
White men in their 20s. That's what I was then.
Amy
You put yourself. I could have also situations. And you work hard, however you are. Also.
Bobby Bones
We talked to producers on that one.
Amy
I don't remember.
Lunchbox
No, we just really bought a ticket.
Amy
Walked in, all of us, and then they called your name, and we were like, what?
Eddie
Yeah, they're not shooting that for tv, so they're not looking for, like, anyone.
Amy
And you want a microwave.
Bobby Bones
I didn't want a microwave.
Eddie
You did.
Bobby Bones
Well, I got up there. I got up. That's what we bid on a microwave. And then I got up on stage.
Eddie
Did you actually win the microwave?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, they gave me money. I took the money in. So I was in Vegas. I lost it, like, in one spin. Like, I put it on the wheel.
Lunchbox
But he did $1. That chick next to him.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I don't remember any of that.
Lunchbox
I remember that.
Eddie
Who was the host.
Bobby Bones
But one dollar is better than. Because one dollar is not dirty dog.
Lunchbox
No, no, you. One dollar over to her.
Bobby Bones
Oh, that's dirty dog.
Lunchbox
Yeah, yeah, one dollar.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. There you go.
Eddie
Different than just saying $1.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I dirty dogged her then.
Amy
Yeah. Like, say she said 195. He said 196.
Lunchbox
But is that really dirty dog or.
Bobby Bones
Is that part of it's part of the game.
Eddie
It's technique.
Bobby Bones
It's dirty dog. But it's fair.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. All fair and love. And Warren Prize is right, baby.
Amy
You can't help that. That's the position you were in.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I was gonna do 196 anyway. Ray, give me that voicemail for.
Annie Bosco
I would love to know. Movie Mike's review of the Ed Gein monster story. Because I watched it, and I'm not into horror at all, and I was, like, kind of into it, so I'd love to know what you thought about it.
Amy
Thanks.
Bobby Bones
Did you watch it? I haven't seen it. I've seen the preview on Netflix. I don't know much about it. I don't really get into the serial killer stuff that much unless everybody else is like, it's so good. So that I have not seen. Yeah. You went to Virginia.
Amy
I did.
Bobby Bones
How'd it go?
Amy
It was so fun.
Bobby Bones
Pretty fancy school.
Amy
Yeah.
Annie Bosco
The.
Amy
I guess they don't say campus there. They say grounds.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. It's like. It's not Ivy League, but it's like they're, like, flirting with the idea of wanting to be.
Amy
I guess so. Yeah. Thomas Jefferson founded it. And it's not freshman, sophomore, junior, senior. It's first, second, third, fourth year. Because Thomas Jefferson says that learning never ends. So you're not a senior at learning at any point. So I was like, okay, so the grounds are beautiful. Or like, Charlottesville. Like, the town is cute.
Bobby Bones
I've been to Charlottesville. It's awesome.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Amy
I had never been to that part of Virginia, and it's so adorable. And the leaves are changing, so. So I just feel like this was also, like, a really good time of year to see all that. Like, it was just really pretty. And then the game was so fun.
Eddie
The game was awesome, right?
Amy
The game was so. Yeah. I mean, they were losing. We thought. I thought, okay, okay, we're gonna lose. Which sucked. Cause y' all told me, oh, we should easily win, you know, which everybody thought they should beat Washington State. Uh, but then they were losing, and they were like, well, this tracks. Yeah, we're used to this. Like, this is normally how it happens.
Bobby Bones
That is. But, yes, it used to be how Virginia was. But you guys spent a ton of money on football this year, so now you're good.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Amy
Yes. And now I'm saying we. I've been to one game. We've got Tony Elliott. He's making over 4 million a year, so he better be doing good.
Annie Bosco
And we.
Amy
We won off a safety you know what that is?
Eddie
Oh, boy.
Amy
I know, but do you know how you get it?
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You stop someone in the end zone. In their own end zone.
Eddie
Yeah. Wow. Man. You knew that.
Bobby Bones
I'm familiar with the sport.
Amy
I thought, I know y' all know. I just was like excited that now it's like an additional thing. I never, I did not know that it. I mean, I knew there was player safety, players, but a safety.
Bobby Bones
Oh, the two point safety.
Amy
Two point safety is tackling the offensive team in their end zone.
Bobby Bones
That's one way to get it. Yeah.
Annie Bosco
Or whatever.
Amy
And then you get the two points, which. That is literally how they won. And at that moment, there was some Washington, there was some WSU fans like right in front of us. And the minute the. The ref. Because they challenged it, I guess, and then the ref came back and was like, yeah, this is a safety. And they all got up and started walking out. And I was like, the game's not even over yet. And they're like, well, it basically is.
Bobby Bones
It's cool. You get to go to a win.
Amy
Yes.
Bobby Bones
It sucks to go to a lose.
Amy
Like his. My boyfriend's college friends, I was meeting them for the first time and we were sitting in some of his friends seats and it was my first time meeting them, obviously, and I spilled my drink on one of the wives.
Eddie
Oh, I saw that. That was on your Instagram.
Amy
Yeah. We were taking a picture and I don't know, my drink just flew out of my hand and it flew all over her dress and I was like, good first impression. I'm so sorry. Yeah, she was so sweet. And luckily it was a dark denim dress, so it couldn't really tell, but I was mortified. Still am.
Eddie
But there was on someone. You know or don't know?
Annie Bosco
Don't know.
Amy
Don't know because I had just met her. She went like the husband and wife.
Bobby Bones
Did you count knowing? Do you count knowing her or not knowing?
Amy
I had just met her. So do you know her at the tailgate? My, my.
Bobby Bones
So at that point. No, I'm just asking for Eddie's question. In your mind, do you know her or don't know her?
Amy
I know her.
Eddie
I know her.
Amy
Yes.
Bobby Bones
So let's answer this question first. I say if you can move, it's better to spill it on somebody. You don't know if you can leave the situation.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Amy
We were using their tickets.
Bobby Bones
So they were sitting next to you.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Amy
Kindly.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. That sucks. If you have to be near them and stay near them, it's better to somebody you Know.
Amy
Yeah, no, like, they all tailgate before. I had met her just hours before that incident at the tailgate. And I had, you know, talked to them on speakerphone before, I guess, a few months ago. But I. And she was. We were so excited to meet. And that was my first impression. So that was cool.
Bobby Bones
It's also funny you got it on Instagram story. Well, because you happened to be recording right when that happened.
Amy
It wasn't a video. It was a live photo. So when I went back to the. If I held down the live photo, I was like, oh, my gosh. At the very end of the picture, you can see the drink flying. So then I just.
Eddie
That's why it stopped.
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Annie Bosco
That's pretty cool.
Amy
It's just a looped record.
Eddie
It literally stops with Amy going like, ah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
Yes. And so, yeah, shout out live photos. That's what's great. Live photos.
Eddie
Are we going deep into.
Amy
Yeah, but they're. They're weird like that.
Annie Bosco
But yeah.
Amy
His friends were like, amy, you're welcome to come back to a game anytime because we won. I was like, yeah, you're welcome.
Bobby Bones
Good. Because they would have for sure blamed it on you had you been the only person that hadn't been. And they lost.
Amy
No.
Annie Bosco
For sure.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
That's the kind of crap I do.
Annie Bosco
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Anything off, I blame it on that.
Amy
That's what I said.
Bobby Bones
Even if it's me, that's awful. Like, this is my fault. Yeah. I blame it on anything like that. We, Arkansas lost. We played pretty good against Texas A M. Yeah.
Eddie
Close game.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Yeah. I scoring him.
Bobby Bones
There was no. It's like they were just playing against air offense versus air close. They covered at the end. Doesn't really count. I didn't win a bunch of money off of it, but I would have rather won the game.
Eddie
But it helps a little bit.
Bobby Bones
Amy nailed another psychic prediction for me. She's hit three now because the two Bears. The Bears covered. They won by over four and a half points. Oh, Amy beat the Saints big time.
Amy
Not bad.
Bobby Bones
So I won like 500 bucks off your psychic prediction.
Amy
Dude, when do I get a cut?
Bobby Bones
Never. That's not how it works. You can bet yourself off your own.
Amy
Oh, yeah.
Bobby Bones
So so far she's had Caltech at Home Run.
Amy
Kyle the kayaker.
Bobby Bones
Yep. The Buccaneers winning the boats. Yep. And then two bears walking in the woods. So I bet on the bears and they whoop the Saints. So Amy's at three. She won me, like, a thousand bucks.
Eddie
Amy, that's amazing.
Bobby Bones
With just visions. Not even Telling me what games to bet. She. This is a team. Team effort. She visualizes it. I interpret it. We win money three. And, oh.
Amy
The pressure.
Eddie
There's no pressure.
Bobby Bones
There's no pressure.
Eddie
Those visions just came to you.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. There's nothing you can help, nothing you can predict, but we'll probably do another one. I don't know. At some point. Yeah. Anything?
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
Like.
Eddie
Like, for tonight?
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Amy
No, nothing for tonight.
Bobby Bones
I'm texting her. Hey. Yeah.
Amy
What do you see right now?
Bobby Bones
Anything happening?
Amy
Yeah, we'll go. Bears.
Bobby Bones
Eddie, how was your weekend?
Eddie
It was good, man. The Cowboys won. Very happy. Gosh, I was so good, man. I love it when they win by a lot because I can just enjoy the day.
Amy
Who'd they play?
Eddie
They played Washington, which is a divisional team. Like, oh, it's huge. So it was a big win for us, man. And then, like, you know, my wife went to the store, bought a bunch of snacks, which I don't understand why she does that. I understand, like, that she likes to do that, but we're not gonna eat, like, five bags of chips. We're not gonna eat 20 cookies. And so at the end of the day, she's always like, oh, nobody ate my snacks. Like, well, we tried to, but we're not gonna eat all the Cheetos and the chips and dips. It looks cool on the table, but really, we're not all. We're not gonna eat them all.
Bobby Bones
That's your complaint? Your wife bought too many snacks.
Eddie
I feel like it's a waste. I feel like it's a waste of money.
Amy
Make all the bags, and you can use them next weekend.
Eddie
No, she. She does it like. It's.
Bobby Bones
Dump them into a. Like. Like my wife does. If I don't use stuff. She dumps them back into a zip. Big Ziploc bag, which.
Eddie
Which we did eventually, but, like, you.
Amy
Know, so it's not a waste.
Eddie
The Ziploc bags in the. In the pantry.
Bobby Bones
Weird complaint.
Eddie
I just feel like it's a waste. I hear you.
Bobby Bones
My Panthers won.
Amy
Congratulations again.
Bobby Bones
Again. We're pounding, baby. They told us to keep pounding. We're pounding.
Eddie
Amy, you got to understand, like, they have not been good. They haven't. They. They weren't winning games for a long time, and then all of a sudden.
Bobby Bones
Wake in the morning, and I step outside.
Amy
I mean, that's one of the reasons why you went with them as your forever team, right? Because they. You didn't want to pick the obvious, correct? Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I didn't pick a team that you.
Amy
Want to Pick the total losers. But you don't want to pick, like the obvious. Well, they've been a total worse than the Cowboys.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah.
Eddie
Oh, yeah. They're.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
I mean, the Cowboys aren't that bad. The Cowboys are just in the middle.
Annie Bosco
What.
Bobby Bones
The Cowboys are perpetually below what the expectation is of.
Eddie
Correct.
Bobby Bones
So they.
Eddie
Which the expectation is we're going to win the super bowl every year.
Bobby Bones
And by their own fans, which makes everybody irritated at their fans. It's just a weird cycle. Yeah. So they won. I don't know. We just. The thing about us is we just keep pounding.
Eddie
You.
Bobby Bones
Do Arkansas and Auburn play may go this weekend?
Eddie
We were.
Bobby Bones
We thought about going this last week.
Eddie
You've seen that. You're saying this every week.
Bobby Bones
No, no, it stormed. It stormed so bad. They were. They delay in the game. And the night before, my wife was even like, yeah, let's go. I didn't think she would want to go anyway. And so we were going to go and we talked to DJ Gaso, lives in Fayetteville, coach on the softball team. And he was like, have you looked at the weather? And I was like, nah, not really. And then it was like massive storms. So much so they delayed the game before it even started. And yeah, it was pretty. It was like hailing and crap. So we didn't go. But, yeah, I know I did say that. But then I said later on in the week, which you guys didn't hear. Probably could just say it in my own head, is that weather's bad. We ain't flying in.
Amy
You did say it out loud.
Bobby Bones
Did I?
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Okay, good.
Amy
I think Mike checked the weather. Great, right?
Bobby Bones
He said, yeah. Then I got a bad. Then I got a bad report. A bad, bad report from dj.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Because I thought, if it's just raining a little bit before, we'll just go. But no, we didn't go. But it was a fine game. We didn't win, but it sucks. But we may go to Auburn next week. We'll see how it feels.
Amy
I said, hey, so it's at. You'd go to an away game?
Bobby Bones
No, it's at Arkansas again.
Amy
Oh, okay.
Bobby Bones
Against Auburn. Well, so that's what's up. You got a story you want to do? We only got a few minutes. I'm gonna get to Amy's interview with Annie Bosco in just a few minutes. But what, you have a story?
Amy
Yeah. So I saw that Prince Andrew gave up his titles because of his ties with Jeffrey Epstein. And yeah. You know, the survivor that had accused Prince Andrew of getting with her when she was 17.
Bobby Bones
That's called rape.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Amy
I didn't know how to say it. She's a survivor and I guess she sadly has passed away. Death by suicide and parentheses.
Bobby Bones
Suicide, for the record.
Eddie
Oh, I didn't know that they're saying suicide.
Amy
Oh, allegedly. Yeah, allegedly.
Bobby Bones
No, I think they're saying. I don't think you have to say allegedly, but I'm gonna put parentheses around it because I'm gonna tell you I don't think it was suicide.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
It's like when someone falls out of a window because they disagree with Russia. Oh, they fell out of the window.
Amy
Yeah. It's terrible. So anyway, after talking with the King Charles, he has decided to remove his titles himself, I guess, before they get stripped from him. But he's still Prince. He's just not Duke of York. And a couple other things. So it's like, okay, and I gotta.
Eddie
Get rid of Prince.
Bobby Bones
He's the guy in the picture with her. The Gulf oil is her name.
Annie Bosco
Yes.
Amy
His ex wife, Sarah Ferguson, she has. She's stripped of her title, Duchess of York. But their daughters get to keep their titles.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, the titles thing, who gives a crap? I don't know.
Amy
I know.
Bobby Bones
Unless there's money attached to it. The titles. I don't know.
Amy
I don't know either. That's why I thought I was like, oh, wow, he's not even gonna be a prince anymore. But I think he's still a prince. Just no Duke of York. And if he had other little titles like that that he's been given. But he still denies that, the allegations.
Bobby Bones
By the way, there's literal pictures of them together.
Amy
Yeah, well, this is. I'm just.
Bobby Bones
The fact that people still want to protect rapists on that list, it blows my mind. It blows my mind. But hey, I've talked about it so much that if you listen to this, you know my thoughts on it. Lunchbox.
Lunchbox
Half the Internet went down. Amazon can't be used. Ring, camera, Alexa and banking apps all not working. They think it could be a cyber attack.
Eddie
What dramatic.
Amy
Amazon.
Bobby Bones
Did you see Amazon? The heist at the Louvre?
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah, I saw something, but I didn't realize that like Louvre had like stuff like that. I thought it was like a art.
Bobby Bones
It's all. And it's massive. The Louvre is like, you can't walk it in a week, I don't think. And so they basically took a van with a ladder busted in a window, went in, got these Napoleon jewels, smashed it. They went in security guard outfits. Four minutes in and out.
Annie Bosco
Dang.
Eddie
That's awesome.
Bobby Bones
They dropped. They dropped a crown on the way out. I think it was like Napoleon's wife's crown. They didn't even get the most expensive thing, but they got, they got lots of priceless. I should read the story, but I watched a whole bunch on it last night.
Eddie
They get to their garage and they're like, where's the crown? You dropped it.
Bobby Bones
They got a bunch though. And they got out. But yeah, they were. I'll just read you this. Thieves broke into the Louvre museum in Paris yesterday right after the museum opened and stole priceless jewelry. In a seven minute robbery, three or four people used a furniture elevator on a truck to reach a window. They cut open that with an angle grinder. They stole items from the Apollo room, which holds the French crown jewels. Police found the crown of Empress Eugene Jewels near the museum. It was damaged. Yeah. And they dropped it.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
The robbers wore yellow vests to look like workers escaped on motorcycles. The museum was evacuated and closed for the day. Police are investigating.
Lunchbox
That's crazy.
Eddie
How do you resell those?
Bobby Bones
All black market for sure. Yeah, you definitely don't put it up on Facebook Marketplace.
Eddie
Does anybody want these?
Bobby Bones
Because they track you down quick on Facebook Marketplace. Let's do one more story. Lunchbox.
Eddie
He already did his.
Bobby Bones
What was yours?
Lunchbox
The Internet going down about?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. So what do they think?
Lunchbox
They think. They said they can't rule out cyber attack. They're trying to figure out what's going around.
Bobby Bones
Like on who. Cyber attacking.
Lunchbox
Yes. Snapchat, Fortnite.
Eddie
Oh no.
Bobby Bones
All the stuff that I can't live without. Eddie go.
Eddie
Yeah. So for the first time in a hundred years, our zippers are changing. So the company. Did you know that the company YKK like is the company that makes it said 80% of the zippers around the world.
Bobby Bones
I did not know that.
Eddie
Which is crazy. But. So apparently for the last hundred years our zipper has a fabric tape that's underneath the zipper. Well, they have now have new technology. They're going to change it and we will no longer have that fabric tape. But they never, they never mess with this design. For 100 years.
Bobby Bones
I don't think there's a story I've cared less about. And all of us doing this, that might be the story. I've cared less.
Lunchbox
Worse than Craig Robinson.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you all don't care about your zippers. The interesting thing that saved Craig Robinson was both you guys have the same terrible story.
Lunchbox
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
That one saved that one.
Lunchbox
I don't even know what he's talking about.
Amy
So do I. I mean, yeah, the.
Eddie
Fabric tape, that's no longer going to be there. You're changing that.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
That might be new technology.
Bobby Bones
Listen, if you're gonna be the worst, be the very worst.
Eddie
Well, I guess I succeeded.
Lunchbox
Yeah. I got a question. You really read that and thought, oh, I should bring this?
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
When something subscribes to a zipper newsletter and it was the top, like, when.
Lunchbox
Have you ever said, oh, man, my. My zipper tape is weird?
Eddie
Techcrunch.com okay, Eddie. Yeah. So the zipper is changing after a hundred years. That's my story.
Bobby Bones

Going to assume that everybody messages their friends. I'm also going to assume that sometimes you run into issues when messaging, especially during group chats. It is really important that my digital messaging is clear. No mistakes. It's also important when I send messages that they send quickly and that I get responses quickly. WhatsApp can help with all that. First you can message privately with everyone in a group even if you're using totally different phones. Sent a message too fast and you regret it? No problem, just edit it and when the chat gets a little too intense, you can switch to a group video call and actually talk it out. Photos and videos come through clear messages get delivered without gaps or delays. Plus, WhatsApp has so many great features like polls, pinned messages, even event invites with RSVPs. So planning stuff just doesn't turn into a big ol mess, it just makes a lot of sense. It's time for WhatsApp message privately with everyone.

Amy
All right. So Annie, I believe in signs, particularly in birds. I have a thing with Cardinals because my mom, she passed away in 2014, instantly saw a cardinal. My dad is a blue jay. And so I have different messages that come from Cardinals and Blue Jays. Not every single one I see. Yeah, just a feeling that comes over me. So do you have any signs like that with anybody in your life?
Annie Bosco
Yes. My grandmother, my great grandmother is the hummingbird. And I remember as a kid my mom would cry when she'd see a hummingbird outside the window. Her biological mother passed away when she was six months old, so she was kind of raised by her great grandmother, by her grandmother, my great grandmother. So I remember my mom would just be crying every time she'd see a hummingbird. And as a kid, like, I would start crying too, because I didn't really understand the meaning of it yet. But now that I'm older, every time I see one, I think of her and she was just awesome. She was a single mom. She worked so hard. She was a hairdresser and just this like, amazing, sweet, salt of the earth woman. So I always, I think about her.
Amy
I just got the cutest hummingbird photo off of Amazon. And I know sometimes your fashion, like, I've complimented some of your stuff. You're like, I ordered it on Amazon. But I'm gonna have to show you this hummingbird photo that I ordered off Amazon and hung it in my laundry room. It's so cute.
Annie Bosco
I love it.
Amy
Yeah, I think. And it would fit your vibe.
Annie Bosco
Oh, Amazon's, come on, it's everything now. Then the clothing has really gotten so good.
Amy
What about any times in your life or in your career, let's say, where you felt like, okay, I'm gonna give up. Have you gotten a sign all the time.
Annie Bosco
All the time. Why did I choose this industry? No, I. You know, ultimately, you gotta love what you do, and you love it. So you put up with the. The crazy schedule and the grind. And a lot of people don't even realize what a grind it is till they actually see it, you know, and they see you do it. And my friends, I'm like, I don't even post half the stuff that I really do because I don't want to exhaust you all on social media. I did receive a sign. A year before the pandemic. I moved home. I had surgery on my vocal cord. You can't talk for a month. And it really took a year to kind of get my voice back strong all the way, which is so crazy, because, you know, as my. My whole life, I've been identified as my voice. I am my voice. It's like, I sang everywhere. Church, football games. I mean, you name it, I sang at it. I was like a music box. So to not have my voice for the first time was shocking. It's something that a lot of singers have had to go through. You'd be surprised if you Googled, like, half of them. And the pandemic hit. And I said, okay, I'll go back to Nashville when I get a gig and when things reopen. So I got a gig. Vince Gill was at the gig, and he said, what are you doing? And I said, I'm making an album, which was only being made in my head. It wasn't actually in a studio happening, but I was, like, manifesting it. And so I kind of really was making an album. And he said, well, I want to sing and play on it. And so that was, my God, Wink. And I told my mom. I'm like, oh, my gosh, she wouldn't believe. Like, Vince Gill was at the gig. I asked for a gig. They would pay me to come back. I got it. He was there. He offered to play on my record. Now I have to make a record. And so from there, I was like, well, if he offered, like, who else would do a song with me? Dwight Yoakum said yes. Raul Malo said yes. All these people that I've really respected as musicians and artists my whole life started to put out songs. And that's kind of what led to my manager and a record label. And, yeah, if it weren't for that, that Godwin, like, I don't know where I. I don't know if I'd be in this chair right now. Yeah.
Amy
In a couple weeks ago, you released California. California. I'll start over. Yeah. And a couple of weeks ago, you released California Cowgirl.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Amy
Which is your debut album.
Annie Bosco
It is.
Amy
And I love that you said you were making an album even though it was just in your head. I'm a big believer in that stuff too. Just speaking it, believing it. Believing in yourself. Like it hasn't happened yet, but you're gonna go ahead and act as if it's happening.
Annie Bosco
Yes.
Amy
That was the perfect answer to Vin Skill. Because then he's like, okay, well, yeah, you're making an album. I want to be on it.
Annie Bosco
Exactly.
Amy
Because imagine if you had just said, oh, you know, I don't know. I'm just playing gigs here and there. Yeah, exactly what happens.
Annie Bosco
Yeah, there's. He wouldn't have offered. Right. I believe in that too.
Amy
How did it feel to put that album out a couple weeks ago? It's scary.
Annie Bosco
I think you never feel like you're doing enough. At least. I will never feel like I'm doing enough. I'm a workaholic. I'm an overachiever. I've learned nothing's ever going to be good enough. So just do it anyways, you know, because you could sit and. I'll never forget, I had, like, a really huge producer tell me he said, even when it's on the shelf at Target, I'm still thinking like, man, maybe I should have done this with a guitar sound on this. He's like, you'll never stop second guessing or questioning things. That's part of music. Music's never truly finished, you know? But at some point, I think the blessing of being on a label versus an indie artist where I would just put out singles is you do have to put out an album, you know, and that is a thing that I think is appreciated. And people want it right now versus, like, five, ten years ago. It was like, singles just put out a single, just an ep. Like, albums don't matter. And all of a sudden people want albums again, which is exciting. And so I feel like I've. It's fun. I feel like I've just worked my whole life kind of for this. And so it was really exciting, scary. And, you know, I just have to learn with myself. I'm like, it'll never be enough, so just enjoy it, you know?
Amy
So I'm gonna ask you how you listen to albums, and then it may impact how you answer how you want people to listen to California Cowgirls.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Amy
So when you get an album, do you like to listen to it start to finish, or do you bounce around.
Annie Bosco
So I bounce around now. But I would say, as a kid, I mean, I studied. Like, I would go front to back. I would look at all the liner notes. I knew every musician who played on every record before I moved here. Like, I knew who. Who these guys were. I knew who all, like, the cats were. I'm like, who is that guy? He's amazing on steel. And so I'd say, now I bounce around. I'm not proud of that. I should change. I should just put it on the kitchen when I'm, like, cleaning and listen front to back.
Amy
Yeah, well, if someone is listening to California Cowgirl for the first time, do you want them to go song one to back, or do you want them to bounce around?
Annie Bosco
I think in today's world, because we have such short attention spans, if you want to bounce around, go for it. But it is fun. The journey. We were, you know, intentional about wanting to have, like, fun. Shit kicker. Serious methodical. This mood here, like, you know, to make it feel like it's a journey because you can't have back to back. You know, you kind of want to feel like you're on that. That ride. The artist.
Amy
That's what I experienced as a listener. I'm not an artist in any way, shape, or form, but when I think back to when I had actual CDs, and I was getting in my car and I was taking a drive, like, I was sort of like you, I would bounce around, and maybe that's my add, but I just would be like, okay, I'm gonna try this song. This song, this song. But then as I got older, I realized, like, oh, there's intention behind the layout at times from artists, and they're telling a story. And now it's not every album, but some. I feel like I was missing out on that journey that the artist was trying to take me on.
Annie Bosco
Yeah, sometimes it's the best just to put it on and then go do something, like work or, like, I said, clean the kitchen or, like, do laundry or whatever. Like, sometimes that's my favorite way of listening to music because something will come on that I wouldn't have left on. I might have jumped to the next track, but then I'll get halfway through and be like, oh, my gosh, that's amazing. Like, you know, it'll grab me. So I think, I don't know, sometimes it's fun to listen in autopilot mode.
Amy
When did you know that this is what you wanted to do with your life full time?
Annie Bosco
I think I always knew. I mean, even When I was a kid, I look back at videos and I was always singing, I was always entertaining, you know, from the time I was five years old. I think I grew up, you know, in a family that they didn't really know much about entertainment. Even though I'm from California. My dad was a third generation farmer and my mom was a stay at home mom of five kids. And so there was no momager, you know, that was like spearheading my career and I didn't have any avenues to get in. I did get a fluke job. Literally. It was a fluke with Disney when I was 13. And that was the moment when I realized, like, oh, like maybe I could really do this as a career, you know, and that was my first time, like in a recording studio. And so I really am grateful for that. That was another godwink that sort of led me to believe that I could pursue it as a profession. So I think.
Amy
So, like, what was your thing on Disney?
Annie Bosco
It was with Little Mermaid too.
Amy
Oh, okay.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Amy
And so you got invited to be on and like you were singing as part of it.
Annie Bosco
Yes, singing on the movie. Shelly Wright did a version of Part of your World and they wanted a younger voice to be Ariel's daughter. And so they used it like in some countries. But it was just, you know, growing up, I'm a 90s kid, so baby. So it's like Disney was everything and the soundtracks were everything and the princesses were everything. And so that was so huge to get to do that. And that was my godwink moment of feeling like, oh, maybe this could really be my career. Yeah.
Amy
And I mean, but being you know, the daughter of a farmer and a stay at home mom, did you ever feel like, oh, I don't, I don't know that that's what. I'm gonna go chase it. Were your parents like, yes, go chase it. We'll support you, whatever. Even though your mom wasn't like, momager role, she had other responsibilities. She had five kids she's trying to take care of. And I'm sure, I mean, being a farmer is no easy job either, so.
Annie Bosco
My dad worked so hard. Yeah.
Amy
Did you think you were gonna go back and have that life? Are you gonna go to college or like, what? How did you even end up where you are?
Annie Bosco
Music was all I ever wanted. My parents really wanted me to go to college. It was a big deal. My dad was the first person in his family to ever go to college. So that was really important for him to have me at least try. So I went and it didn't last long.
Amy
Oh, okay.
Annie Bosco
Yeah, I kept getting jobs in music and that involved travel and what I knew I ultimately really wanted to do. So, yeah, I kind of moved to Nashville pretty shortly after that. I took a trip here with a friend. I saw girls playing guitar and writing songs, and that was important. I knew I wanted to be a musician and I knew writing songs was really important to me. So, yeah, I came here and it felt like this was the right place to be. And I. I never saw like a plan B or I never saw myself doing anything else. I mean, I worked all kinds of odd jobs while pursuing the dream, from like cleaning houses to nannying kids to like, you name it, working at restaurants, which never really lasted long because I always had a gig. And I'm like, sorry, guys, I have a gig this weekend. They're like, yeah, you can't keep leaving for gigs. And so eventually music became my full time thing.
Amy
Yeah. What about, like, hobbies that you have for yourself now? I mean, because you're on the road a lot, but like, what do you get to do for yourself? Because thinking about how your dad's a farmer, it makes me think of, you know, gardening. I would love to take up. I don't know if you have a green thumb at all, but I guess it's hard to take care of a garden if you're traveling a lot. But, like, what do you do for yourself? Because, like, playing an instrument can't be a hobby because that's your job.
Annie Bosco
No. Yeah, eventually it starts. It's not a hobby.
Amy
Yeah. But I guess too, I was curious about what you were even going to major in in college, which could kind of lean towards hobbies or interests as well.
Annie Bosco
Well, yeah, to your point. I can't even keep a cactus alive at the moment, so we're just gonna put the green thumb on pause. But I would love to have a garden. I actually tried it a couple years ago and I had. I was on the road too much, so it died, of course, because you have to, like, be really careful about watering it, especially in the beginning. I love the outdoors. I'm like an athletic person. I grew up doing sports, so recently I've taken up golf. That's a new one that I used to make fun of golfers because I was like, you don't need to be athletic to golf, which is somewhat true. It's a form is a big thing. But what's great about golf is you're outside, love being outside, and you have to completely focus so it kind of takes the stress of the world away because you have to totally focus on hitting the ball and making ball count, contact, and where you're going. So I love it for that reason. When I'm near an ocean, I love to surf, I love to hike. I love being outside, and I think that's like, my Zen place. I also love to cook. Like, I love food. I'm so passionate about food. My mom cooked every night, so I feel like I kind of got it from her just watching her as a kid. So I love. I grill now. I have a grill, so, like, I can grill. I'm a girl who grills.
Amy
What's your favorite thing to grill? Is it like chicken or steak?
Annie Bosco
Obviously. But I made chicken a couple weeks ago and it was like, this is really good too. But I have a pit boss grill because they've sponsored me with a grill. And so finally I'm like, okay, you're pulling out the grill. You're gonna do it while we still have nice weather. And I've had so much fun because I'll do, like, steak, but then I'll put, like, kale in a cast iron skillet and, like, French bread. I'll do potatoes and asparagus. So I'll do, like, everything in the grill. And that's. That's been really fun.
Amy
You're like a legit. We have everything we need for a full meal.
Annie Bosco
Yes. In the grill. Who knew you could do all that?
Amy
I know, and you're. But you're gonna have to take advantage of it when you can when you're home. Because I can't imagine, like, you're eating out on the road so much that I do imagine when you are home, you just want a good home cooked meal.
Annie Bosco
There's nothing like it. People like, do you want to come out? I'm like, no, no. I'm so excited to stay home.
Amy
I've been out 300 days.
Annie Bosco
Y and just to know where your food's coming from, like, that's so fun to get to know local farmers that I've become friends with who raise cattle or who. Like, I have some farmer friends where I go sometimes, and I pick the kale, which is so fun because my. My dad always says, like, we grew kale before kale was cool when it was like a garnish on the side of, you know, like a buffet spread. But no one actually ate it as food. So that's really fun to get to know local farmers. And I feel like people are passionate now about food. You know, people are talking about it and people want to support like the local farmers and stuff, so.
Amy
Yeah.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Amy
Well, circling back to that, that college stint you had, did you have a major in mind?
Annie Bosco
So I was a music industry.
Amy
Okay.
Annie Bosco
Major.
Amy
So you're at least in that vein. I was in that sound like you were like accounting. And then we're like, I'm going to go do music. And your parents are like, wait, what?
Annie Bosco
I was, I was marvel because there's big artists that are like, I wasn't even going to do music. I was going to do this. I'm like, wow. Like, you know, for me, I just. It's all I ever really wanted to do. Yeah. So that didn't last long. I. I got called to for a job and I think they like flunked me in the midterm, but I was like, wait a second, I'm studying this and I'm getting a job in this. You know, it just wasn't for me. Yeah, I already knew what I wanted to do. And, And I think schools for music, you know, you don't have to get a college degree. It's not like that's going to further your success in music industry. So I think it's a unique field in that sense because most careers, you know, a degree would help. Right. But in my case, it just wasn't for me, you know, and I knew that.
Amy
What rituals or activities different from a hobby, but like things. What are some things you do to help you stay grounded or, you know, that fill your cup up? I mean, hobbies are one thing, but I don't know, are you into yoga or, you know, painting or breath work or journaling? I guess as a writer, you probably do. You write everything down.
Annie Bosco
I. I go through phases where I'm so good about it. And I'll have like my morning routine, which I. I'm a big believer in. And when I do it, I definitely feel a difference. This past week I haven't just because I'm, you know, it depends on how crazy life is and if you're traveling and stuff. But I try to start my day away from my phone and I'll try to start with a devotional, so I'll start with that. And I have like a little gratitude journal. And I'll just try to have that quiet time. I'll usually go outside in my backyard and, you know, connect with nature and just have that time to. To breathe and get ready for the day. And then I try to work out, if I can, before the day starts. Not every day Works that way. But I'm an early riser, so if I don't have a late show, I'll wake up early and I work out before everything else.
Amy
Yeah, some artists, they're like, oh, no, I'm not waking up before 1:00'.
Bobby Bones
Clock.
Amy
But even if you do have a late show, do you. Are you able to sleep in or do you still just kind of.
Annie Bosco
I can't sleep.
Amy
I know it's 8am I picture you as like a. Just a go, go, go girl. But not to a point of you're trying to be toxic about it. It's just that, like, you got to get up and seize the day. So beautiful outside.
Annie Bosco
Even if I'm tired, there's nothing a cold brew can't fix. You know what I mean? I will find the cold brew wherever I am.
Amy
What? Yeah, speaking of, what is your go to coffee drink?
Annie Bosco
It varies, but right now I'm really into the cold brews with the foams. And now they have the protein foam. It's just they keep coming out with new foams. When I'm on the road, it's a cold bre. Because I feel like it gives you more caffeine and it's less acidity. When I'm at home, I do like just espresso. I'm into espresso shots lately.
Amy
Oh, just like straight shot.
Annie Bosco
Yeah. But I'll like whip in my little collagen thing with it. So. Yeah, that's my current phase.
Amy
Yeah. You do the collagen peptides.
Annie Bosco
Yeah. And the colostrum, whatever that is. I don't even know what it is, but I do it well.
Amy
It's what's produced in the cow's milk when they're feeding their babies. Humans produce it too. Okay, so it's like from the breast milk, but it's from cows. I don't know. I started to crazy, but I feel.
Annie Bosco
Like it helps my allergies.
Amy
A lot of people have made several different claims. Even some, like my friend was saying the other day, and she was even doing endorsements for a particular company, and they're like, well, you can't make that claim. She's like, but this was my experience. It's true. And they're like, yeah, I know, but we just can't publicly make that claim. But for her, she said it completely helped her immune system.
Bobby Bones
Wow.
Amy
Like, so many people in her family are getting sick and she was so regimented with her colostrum. She's the only one that didn't get sick. So I think it can help with all kinds of things from skin and hair. I don't believe her immunity. I know. She was like, this would be such good marketing for you. They're like, yes, but we don't want to make that crazy of a claim, right? And she's like, well, this was my experience.
Annie Bosco
She's like, you're lost?
Amy
Yeah, you're lost. Yeah. Okay, so back to California Cowgirl. Let's say now that there's just one song people get to hear. If there was one you wanted them to listen to, which one would you pick? I know it's so hard because they're all like, your baby, but then it wouldn't be a fun game. Can't pick them all.
Annie Bosco
I'd say probably fighter just because it. It evokes an emotion in people that I can't really figure out, you know, like, without a doubt, after every show, someone will come up to me and tell me, like, thank you for that song. I needed it. And they'll share a with me that'll, like, break me, you know, where I'm like, oh, my gosh. Like, I think I have problems, right? And. And I love, like, doing meet and greets after shows and getting to know fans. It's just such a. An important thing that as long as I can do it, I'll do it. And I try to meet everyone after a show because you get that one on one time with them after they get to experience you and your music and getting to connect with them and hear how it's impacted them. And that's one that just without, without doubt always impacts people. And I think the greatest gift of music is probably helping people. And life is hard and tricky and challenging and really difficult to navigate, and everybody's fighting some kind of battle. Even if they look like they're on top of the world. There's something going on that almost everyone is facing on a daily basis. So you realize that that message really never gets old of, like, hey, you know, like, bring it on. Because, like, I'm just going through a hard, dark season right now, which is inevitable. Like, everybody goes through it, but it's not, you know, it's not how hard you get hit. It's if you get hit and you keep going and you get back up.
Amy
So. Yeah, that's a quote from Rocky.
Annie Bosco
I can't take credit for that one.
Bobby Bones
It ain't how hard you get hit.
Annie Bosco
It's about getting hit and getting back up. That was Rocky Balboa. Yeah.
Amy
Well, that's good to know, because some People might be going somewhere right now, and they're like, oh, I need to go check out Fighter, because, yeah, maybe it'll help them through this season. And, you know, you were talking about one of your favorite things is the fans and interacting with them. And it reminded me of a video I saw Lainey Wilson post the other day where she was playing to a huge crowd.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Amy
And she looked over and saw, like, a day one fan at front row, and she was like, oh, my gosh. Like, that fan has obviously been at lots of different shows, but she was like, wait a second, y'. All. We just have to pause what we're doing because I need to tell y' all that this girl right here, she has been at my shows since day one when nobody was there. And then she started to kind of get into the song. She was like, wait a second. I have to get up and go give you a hug. Because I think she had this moment of gratitude of, like, I remember what it was like playing for nobody. And then she goes over and hugs the girl and she's like, do you remember that very first show that I met you? And she goes, yeah, it was at a casino, and literally nobody was there except for, like, her. Wow. And so it just. The fans are so important. Like, even if it's like 1 to 100,000 like, that you're playing for, it doesn't matter.
Annie Bosco
To go back to what you were saying, I think the thing. When I want to quit, I'll go play show, and then I'll have a meet and greet of, like, 300 people that you're talking to that are moved by what you do. Little girls that are inspired by watching you on stage, or guys that are like, man, you rock, you know, or someone that shares a story about what they're going through. And it's like, that's it. If you. If you really as an artist, like, if I only focused on that, which maybe that should be my new thing. Honestly, until I just had that revelation. Because you get bogged down by all the other things that really, at the end of the day, don't even matter. They really don't. It's like it really comes down to you as an artist, your music, and the fans and the people that are supporters, because you'll always have the naysayers. I mean, I've seen it. Even when Taylor Swift, you know, was in town and she was. I'll never forget, I overheard someone say, oh, an artist who, being who we are not going to name, said, oh, she thinks she's going to go headline. Good luck.
Amy
Okay. Look at. Look at her now.
Annie Bosco
Yeah. And so I feel like, especially as a female, you just have to know that you are always going to have the naysayers and the doubters that don't think you can do something. Which kind of inspired title track, you know, number one on my record called Watch Me. Because it's sort of like, I think some of the. The most fun thing it's. I love when someone tells me I can't do something, but it makes me want. It makes me just want to do it even more. And then when I do do it, it's so fun to see the reaction, you know, And I feel like you have to let those. Those feel you. But, yeah, to your point, it really. Everything that you do comes down to the fans and those are the people that they keep you going because that's really what it's all about.
Amy
Let's talk about another track, Old Friends.
Annie Bosco
Yeah.
Amy
What was that like with Darius Rucker?
Annie Bosco
That was so fun. I mean, he's Darius, you know, he's like, look at how many seasons, like, he's been through as an artist. It's amazing how he's evolved. And he's just that. That person that feels like everybody's friend, which is why it felt appropriate to have him on the track. He is that guy that feels like he's everyone's friend and he has that voice that's, like, lived, you know, he's been through it and it's so distinctive. Like, as soon as you hear it, you just know that it's him.
Amy
Oh, especially. I mean, yes, his voice in this song, I'm sure. But his laugh, which I'm sure isn't on the song, but he has the most distinct laugh of any.
Annie Bosco
You know, it's him.
Amy
Artist. Yeah. I think ever. I know.
Annie Bosco
I still know what you're talking. And it's such a great laugh because it makes you laugh, too. And, like, you feel that joy from him. Yeah, yeah. He's just an amazing human and, like, so sweet and so much joy in him that he brings to everybody.
Amy
It's a contagious.
Annie Bosco
It is, yes. Yeah.
Amy
Well, speaking of being contagious, we hope that that's what your album is. Thank you, everybody. In this, it spreads and people listen, which it's been out for a couple weeks, so hopefully you've already heard stuff. I know we've been playing things on Women of I Heart Country.

This lively episode brings listeners inside Lunchbox’s Price Is Right letdown—and the lessons he’s (maybe) learned—while letting Amy’s travel mishaps and Annie Bosco’s artist journey inspire laughs and personal reflection. Whether you’re chasing a crazy dream or just trying to keep a cactus alive, it’s a perfect blend of humor, heart, and real-life grit.
