Main Topics & Key Insights

1. Vegas Tales: Flights, Festivals, and Fatigue

• Bobby’s Vegas Experience:
  • Bobby shares his routine in Vegas, preferring to head to bed early and avoid the chaos of the Strip.
  • He had a nosebleed at the airport due to the extreme heat and humidity.
  • On return, he dealt with a fully booked flight, an unusually large seatmate, and a long, uncomfortable journey.
  • On Vegas nightlife:

    "As soon as my stuff was over, I went to bed. Like I missed the back half of both nights." (03:15)

• Flight Story:
  • Bobby humorously describes sitting next to a 6’8”, 300+ lb man, who "could have been a king 500 years ago," and describes the struggle for space, the “serial killer” nature of picking a seat with only a panel, and avoiding bathroom trips out of courtesy.
  • Quote on big seatmate:

    “If you sit at the panel on purpose... you probably killed somebody.” (04:35)

  • About holding in his pee:

    "For, like, three hours, I'm just, like, squeezing my urethra... sometimes you just pinch it with your fingers so nothing comes out." (11:50)

2. iHeartRadio Music Festival Highlights

• The team recaps favorite festival performances:
  • Ed Sheeran was praised for his "looper" setup and unique live creations.
  • Jelly Roll brought unmatched crowd energy.
  • The Offspring was a surprise hit for some.
  • John Fogerty, despite his age, "goes hard" on stage.
  • Tim McGraw’s set included a guest appearance by his nephew, Timothy – stellar despite obvious nerves.
  • Lunchbox recounts giving daps to artists like LL Cool J and Ed Sheeran but laments not meeting Mariah Carey.
• Quote from Lunchbox:

  "Ed Sheeran is unbelievable... he makes everything right there. So it's different every time." (35:14)

• Mariah Carey was under "lock and key," with no backstage access.

3. Bobby’s Bad Bet & Arkansas Football Woes

• Bobby talks about betting (and losing) on an Arkansas game, continuing his complex relationship as both superfan and major athletics donor.
• He grapples with supporting a struggling team despite significant financial donations.
• On Arkansas coaching situation:

  “I don't want to ever scream, somebody needs to lose their job... But once I started pumping a lot of money into it, I would get even more annoyed.” (16:10)

• Bobby describes the bittersweet feeling of having "access" perks as a donor, but feeling awkward amidst decision-makers after publicly questioning staff.

4. Listener Questions & Voicemails

• Voicemails ranged from fans checking on Bobby after the Arkansas loss (mostly wanting to hear him rant), to sports betting queries (don’t let your underage kid use your ID!), and praise for Lunchbox at the festival.
• Funny moment:
  • Amy admires Dave Canales, the Panthers coach, after listeners ask if she’s noticed “how hot” he is—eliciting team-wide jokes about salary and looks. (30:20)

5. Raymundo Reunites With His Twin Brother

• Ray recounts seeing his estranged twin after seven years for their 40th birthday in Detroit:
  • Their reunion was orchestrated by their mom and was brief but positive—attended a Tigers game, exchanged "bro daps" instead of hugs, and had mostly surface-level conversations.
  • Ray discusses family dynamics, his brother's quiet personality, and potential memory issues due to a complicated birth.
  • Quote:

    "Let's be real, we used to be womb mates, so we picked up right where we left off." (38:41)

• The emotional but understated family reunion led to brighter moments and jokes about Michigan stoicism.

  • New developments in the Madeleine McCann case.
  • The death of songwriter Brett James in a plane crash—a brief tribute to his career and kindness.
• Quick-hit stories: Travis Kelce’s confirmed wedding planning, NFL celebration fines (notably for “throat slash” gestures), and sports memorabilia theft.

7. Draft Results & Lighthearted Crew Banter

• The crew recaps a song draft (“songs that start with A”):
  • Eddie wins with "Amazing Grace."
  • Bobby laments coming dead last, admitting, “I never want to go first.”
• Fun crew banter about the pressures of drafts, bad picks, and the unpredictability of listener votes.

8. Wellness, Hobbies, and Brain Science

• Amy brings up an article (of dubious value) about how hobbies "rewire your brain" per "neuroscience."
  • E.g., drawing builds patience, music fosters discipline, reading helps overthinkers, being in nature boosts presence.
  • Bobby and crew poke fun at the vagueness (“Who wrote this? Mr. Neuroscience?”), but agree on the value of doing hobbies, museums, and self-care.

The Bobby Bones Show.

[A]

So we went to Vegas this past weekend for our iHeartradio music festival. And we're doing the trip as we normally do. Flying back, I mentioned earlier that I was at the airport, got a little nosebleed just because it was so hot the whole weekend. And if it's really hot for an extended period of time or humid, my nose bleeds. So I'm in the airport, got a big thing up my nose. Plane was slightly delayed. Not big because in the morning it's really hard to get a delayed plane because they're all there when it starts. I don't take the earliest flight. Some people take that 6am flight out of Vegas. That's crazy to me. And I go to bed early. Like both nights of the festival I was in bed by 10:30 or 11. Everybody else stayed. But as soon as my stuff was over the like, I went to bed. Like I missed the back half of both nights. I think watched. Yeah, the front four or five acts. I was just exhausted. So I would go back and go to bed. So still no 6am for me. I think we took like the. We. I was by myself. I think we took like the. I took like the 9am So I get to the airport, like I took like 7:30 because Vegas is a mess. And I go and I'm a five on Southwest and I go and I sit by the window. I got my normal seat, which is a window and a panel. Does that make sense?

[D]

Yeah, because you, you can lay your head against the panel. There's no window. I mean there is a window, but it's not in your headway.

[A]

And I need a window. There are those seats that are just panel and if you choose that you are a serial killer because you can't see out the. You can't see out.

[D]

Yeah, I don't need a window.

[A]

It's just a wall. You know, I don't need a window either. Except I need the option to open it if I want it. Okay. I might open it for 10 seconds when we're about to land. So I know not to jump whenever we, we hit the ground.

[D]

Sure. Serial killer is a jump though. Like a stretch though.

[A]

No, if you sit at the panel on purpose. And that's the only. You're like, I can't wait to get the panel, and there's no window. You probably killed somebody.

[D]

Okay.

[A]

So I go, I got my seat. I'm laying there, and I asked the person, hey, is this a full flight? And she's like, completely full. And I'm like, all right. Dang. Which sucks, because then I can't put my bags in that middle seat and act like it's somebody's seat till it gets too late, and then I can pull them, and then I got an empty seat. Because that trick works sometimes.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

So I'm like, great. This dude walks on the plane. He's probably six, eight. Not, like, obese, just a monster of a man.

[D]

Oh, yeah. Six eight's pretty.

[A]

Like, six eight had to be 300 plus pounds. Oh, at some point did. He was probably. If he was born 500 years ago, he'd been the king, he'd have ruled something, because he was. And he sits down in the aisle seat, and I'm sitting on the window seat. And he's so large that he takes. And he unflaps that middle, the seat divider, the armrest. And I'm like, perfect. This dude is so large. I bet he had to pay for two seats. And there's, like, a half of that seat that I'm now getting because he's taken up a seat and a half. Like, this is the greatest thing. I got lucky. And so just me and him, guys, a monster. And so people are looking at. And there's not. Not many seats left. It's the back of the line, and people are looking at it and going, no way. No way, no way. They keep walking back, and I'm like, hey, got lucky again.

[D]

But it's a full flight.

[A]

But. But he could have bought both seats.

[D]

Oh, that's right. That's right. Sorry. I forgot about that.

[A]

That would have been the full flight part.

[D]

Okay.

[A]

Thing is, he didn't buy both seats.

[E]

Oh, no.

[D]

Okay. Which was my fear. So now you. Your only option is a really tiny person.

[A]

Yes.

[D]

And I bet that.

[E]

No, no, it's not what happened.

[A]

Not what happened at all. And so I'm feeling sorry for this guy a little bit. Except I'm also jealous that he's that large. He's like, NFL defensive lineman, upper tier large. Again, he's just not a big, fat guy.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Just a monster. And somebody walks on. And it's a man. Normal guy, little chubby. And he looks around, and he's like, there is nowhere else to sit. And he looks at me, and I'm like, bro, I don't know what you want.

[E]

Were you sitting large too? Kind of like spread a little bit.

[A]

I had my seat divider down.

[E]

Your rest armrest.

[D]

You were in your perimeter.

[A]

Yes. And I was gonna lift it up as soon as that last person. And what had happened too was that person was not. I guess it was probably late to the flight, but they came on like after three or four minutes of nobody coming through. So there, there's nobody else in the aisle. The flight attendants are like checking crap up and then all of a sudden around the corner, boom, he pops up. I know. And so he's looking, he looks at me and he's like. And I'm like, I don't know. And so he goes, excuse me. And he has to get in and the guy, the giant guy has to take the armrest and put it down and like fit himself in his own seat.

[E]

That's tough.

[A]

I hear you. Huh? But I was jealous. He was that big. He'll die before us. Bigger, bigger people die earlier. Ray's going to live forever.

[E]

Cuz he's little. Yeah.

[A]

He going to live forever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But the, the, the large guy, the defensive lineman, and I should have asked him what he did cuz he also looked like, oh for sure. An athlete. And he like crams that thing down, like squeezes in it. He was so big when he has tray his, when he pulled it down to put food on, he couldn't get it all the way down.

[D]

Poor guy.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, but that's, but I'm telling.

[E]

You, that's just for a few hours.

[A]

Amy, it's not what you think. It wasn't just, it wasn't somebody that was so overweight. He was just, it was like Andre the Giant. Yeah. When he couldn't fit on a plane. You watched the documentary, right? Yeah. Poor guy. That's poor guy.

[E]

That's poor guy.

[A]

But he couldn't fit his tray down, so he'd have to like put his food and stuff on it and then put his elbows on it to push it down while he was eating. This guy in the middle next to me had the longest four hour flight in the history of flights.

[E]

That's tough.

[A]

It was, I was still on my spot then he was like infringing on me a little bit, but I didn't care. Like I understood because he was in an infringement seat. But the guy was late.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

If you're late to your flight for whatever reason, odds are you're going to get the least desirable seat possible. And he got it. And we flew back and it was. It sucked. The only good thing about that flight was that we left at like 9:10. So that's 11:10 our time. So I gutted through the first 50 minutes just like, this sucks. Listen to podcasts. And then at 10 Pacific Noon our time, football game started. And so I bought this Southwest Air wi fi for eight bucks and watched YouTube TV and just flip between all the games. But when you fly that flight path, a lot of times you're flying over weird parts where there's no Internet. And so I would hit. I would hit like 12 minute blops of nothing. It just freezes. And I'm just trying to hit play. And I look over and Andre the Giant's got his going. He's got his Internet going. He's watching the game as I can't get mine.

[D]

Why is his different?

[A]

I don't know. So I would like disconnect, you know, turn my WI fi off, get back on. Sometimes it would work. Then I would shut my phone down. Sometimes it wouldn't work. I don't know. I don't know that his was different.

[D]

I think he just has more access.

[E]

To the big guy through Southwest.

[D]

Was he just watching out, like on the live tv? Because that's free.

[A]

Oh, my God.

[E]

Possibly.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

I'm like, I think that was it because he was only watching one game. And I was like, does this dude, you know he watch all the games? You're right. He was only watching that jets game. Yeah. That doesn't drop out the live. I should have gone to it whenever the dropouts happened. I didn't think about that. Yeah, yeah, that's. What?

[D]

Did you ever have to get up and use the bathroom?

[A]

Oh, thank you for asking.

[E]

That's a good question.

[A]

So both flights, there and back. I believe I have an obligation as the window seater. I get one trip, that's it. And I have to drink a lot of water because again, I get so dehydrated in Vegas. I get so dehydrated when I fly. So when I am on the window, I. I know that I'm getting one exit.

[D]

Well, that's your own rule.

[A]

It is. Because I don't want to be inconsiderate of the people that are sitting middle and aisle. If I'm up three times, it sucks. And I swear to you they're making those seats smaller. And I don't know, they are, but it's like, excuse me. I think even the aisles are getting smaller. So I will get up once and disturb everyone. And with Andre the Giant sitting over there had to pee so bad. But to make him get up was even more of a process. So I get on. I gotta pee 15 minutes into this thing, and I, like, feel the pressure building up on my bladder, and I'm like, I'm not doing it. I got one time. I'm not making him move. It just took him full elbows to hold his tray down. So I waited until he got up to go to the bathroom. It was like three hours in. So for, like, three hours, I'm just, like, squeezing my urethra both with. Both with, like, my inner muscles. And then, like, sometimes you just pinch it.

[D]

No, I don't. What?

[E]

Yeah, sometimes you have to.

[D]

What do you mean?

[A]

Pinch it with your fingers. Pinch a wiener so nothing comes out.

[E]

So nothing comes out.

[D]

I feel like that would make it come out.

[E]

No, no, it's like, pinch it close.

[A]

Like if it's a water hose and you take it and you.

[E]

Correct.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

You cut off the flow.

[E]

Yes.

[D]

Got it.

[E]

But that's when it's really bad.

[A]

But I went okay away till he got a. And I was like, excuse me. And the guy next to me was like, got it. And I went. He went to the front, I went to the back, and I just tried to beat him back as well. Man. When I. Because. Because I didn't want him to sit down me, I have to get him up again. When I peed after holding it for, like, two and a half hours, it was like he dumped a bucket of water out, just. Yeah, so, yeah, that was what was up.

[E]

You know, what I saw was crazy, is I saw a pilot going to the bathroom, and he was watching the football game. He's on his break on his phone. I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Why are you watching the football game?

[A]

You're a pilot. I bet you they're up there watching the football game in their cockpit.

[E]

That's what I'm saying.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

Maybe we shouldn't do that. And then when we talked about, you know, that that plane was flying too close to Air Force One, maybe that's what he was talking about when he said, get off your iPad.

[B]

You're watching football.

[A]

I think, hot take. I'd rather have them watching football than watching the skies.

[D]

What?

[F]

What?

[E]

Paying attention to their work.

[A]

I'd like to explain why, if you're watching the skies, you're going to get so bored and you're going have to fight falling asleep because there's nothing to see out there. It's just open blue.

[D]

Well, or just Clouds, you don't see anything.

[A]

There's nothing.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

And so you're just going to go, you're going to fight your eyelids. It's going to be so boring. There's nothing you can do. If you're watching football, at least you're being stimulated enough to stay active.

[E]

Okay.

[D]

I mean, you can watch the radar.

[E]

I feel like they should be watching the sky, dude, you can watch the.

[A]

Panels for four hours. No way you're going to fall asleep.

[E]

That's like, that's like, that's like saying, like in your. On a long road trip, man, that's okay if you take your off the road for a little bit.

[A]

The opposite. Because on a road trip you have to use your arms to do the driving. You got to watch for other cars hitting you up in the sky. You don't. You gotta. As long as you put your phone where the game is by that beep.

[D]

Instrument, the radar thing.

[A]

Yeah, as long as you put it by there so your eyes are there in case another, another thing comes in. I'm good.

[E]

Okay.

[A]

Yeah, I'm good. So, yeah. What a trip. I don't like Vegas. I'm gonna say this. They do a great job with our festival. And I like Las Vegas, the town with the people that are locals that they live in. I'm over the Strip. It's not for me. People smoke and they've always have been, so it's not new.

[E]

They're still smoking.

[A]

They still smoke in casinos. It's crazy to be inside and people smoke. It feels very, very like the early part of my childhood, we would go into like a restaurant, they'd be smoking. It feels like that.

[D]

Is that the last place on earth?

[A]

Probably in America.

[D]

Yeah. America.

[E]

Yeah. Because they don't allow them bowling alleys anymore.

[A]

They don't know.

[D]

That's crazy.

[A]

It's so weird that people smoke inside.

[D]

So I guess it's not, but I feel like bowling alleys, a lot of people smoke.

[A]

Yeah. Waffle House. You can't, right?

[E]

No, no restaurants.

[A]

Well, Waffle House, I think they grandfathered that one in for a bunch of years too. Like, you could just smoke and they wouldn't say anything.

[E]

I feel like any of those breakfast places, that was like prime smoking environment.

[A]

Yeah. So I don't know. I, it's just not for me. I, I, I gambled a little bit, but it was only because I had nothing to do and I was doing.

[D]

And you wanted to prove that you'd lose, so I wanted to.

[A]

Well, I did lose a. I did Lose a football bet.

[D]

Okay, which one?

[A]

Arkansas. It was a terrible game. It was one of the worst of my lifetime. Like, top three, I think, for the good, though, because I think we'll be moving on from our current coaching staff and I think we need that to happen. I think we've needed that to happen for a while. I've been somebody that's been saying that because I don't want to ever scream, somebody needs to lose their job. And I really didn't until this last week because I like the Arkansas football coach as a person. And I think once I started. Don't. I'm a massive Arkansas fan. Like, no doubt I would have been regardless. But once I started to have success and I started to make money, I was like, man, what can I do that I've always wanted to do? So I bought baseball cards and I bought. But I. But then I started donating to Arkansas athletics, and so I would say I'm a mid level donor. Significant, but not the people who go, you need 5 million, you can have it. Definitely not that, but significant enough. And once I started pumping a lot of money into it, I would get even more annoyed whenever it looked like it was aiming toward the freaking trash barrel. Because I'm like, why am I putting all this money in if the direction we're going is nowhere positive? And so it would irritate me even more. And so I considered, well, if I donate less, you're an investor. Yeah, if I donate. Yeah. Basically with no real payment back.

[E]

Except for Joy wins. Yeah.

[A]

I thought, well, if I stop donating, then if we lose, I won't be as irritated. But I couldn't stop donating. So I think.

[D]

I think that just, like, don't let yourself.

[A]

Yeah, I mean, I can't, though. It's like this. Well, I can't because the access is like one of the greatest parts of my life.

[D]

Oh. Like at the. Because you're a mid. You get. What do you mean? You get certain tickets or something?

[A]

Not tickets, because I don't have season tickets. Because I'm like, I don't want season tickets. I don't go enough. I'm able to get back, but anytime I want to go, I just call them like, hey, I'm coming. And maybe I would get that anyway because of whatever notoriety that I have at this point. But it's worth it to me to just be able to call and be like, hey, I'm gonna come. Let's do this. And they're like, you got it, dude. But it's awesome. It's the greatest thing that. That is, like, the greatest thing is being able to go to games. And I'm supposed to go to Notre Dame this weekend. I don't know if I'm gonna go.

[D]

Because y' all are not doing well.

[A]

Yeah, it's not even that we're not doing well.

[D]

Well, hey, you could give them to that Notre Dame guy that wanted your ticket.

[A]

I know.

[E]

He's still waiting.

[D]

He wants to go.

[A]

Well, the problem is they're like. They're up in, like, the suite.

[D]

Oh, I'm sure he would love that.

[A]

Yeah, that's true. I just feel like it's a little awkward.

[D]

Oh, I get it. Because I would be with Razorbacks.

[A]

No, I'm talking about me. If I go up and I'm in the suite with all the people that I've been like, ah, we don't need this anymore. We need changes. Because it's like all, you know, well.

[D]

Well, the coach is not on the field.

[A]

No, but it's a lot of the decision makers. Coach adjacent people.

[D]

Well, they probably are annoyed, too.

[A]

No, they lose their jobs or they're like family of coaches or. Or they're part of the administration that hired the coaches.

[D]

Gotcha says.

[A]

And I'm on Twitter being like, time for a change. I was pissed we lost in Memphis. No disrespect to Memphis, but they're not a power four school.

[E]

I know.

[A]

Brutal, brutal game. I did that on Saturday. And then I didn't want to leave my room. And then I watched Oklahoma and Auburn. They want Oklahoma won, so at least my wife gets the taste of victory.

[E]

That didn't help me much.

[A]

Oh, you know what? If it were just my wife enjoying the taste of victory, I think maybe I'd have been like, I hope they lose, but I actually root for Oklahoma because my father in law more than my wife.

[E]

Why?

[A]

Because my wife talks crap.

[E]

Oh, your father in law does not talk.

[A]

No, my father in law, sweetest dude ever, wants the best. He roots for Arkansas because I root.

[E]

For Arkansas because it makes you happy.

[A]

Yes. So, yeah, that's what's up. Don't want to do the draft results. We have them. We haven't showed them yet. We have a tie for last place.

[E]

This is a song that starts with a.

[A]

Was it a. Oh, boy.

[E]

Oh, I think I did good on this one. Amazing grace, I think I had.

[A]

Oh, yeah, that's good. I went first and was. Had nothing.

[E]

You had. You had nothing.

[A]

All in the family. Oh, no, there's not a tie. Never Mind, I'm a dead last. I lost big time. What? The note. I. Oh, there's a tie for next to last. And it doesn't matter. I'm in last. I had all in the family theme. I went first. I never want to go first.

[E]

You had nothing, dude.

[A]

Nothing at all. In the family theme. American pie and ain't no sunshine. 6%. Raymundo and Amy tied at 15%.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Amy third, Raymundo fourth. We had a massive winner. You want to guess who the winner was? If I read you the songs?

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Here is lunchbox all about that base All Star and ABC123. Eddie. Amazing grace. Any man of mine. All the small things.

[D]

I feel like they're equally.

[E]

Stop.

[A]

They're not equal.

[E]

Amy, come on.

[D]

Okay. Who had amazing grace?

[A]

Eddie.

[D]

Okay, that one.

[A]

Yeah. Big win.

[E]

I mean, it was amazing grace.

[A]

You doubled up second and tripled up.

[E]

Third place, Eddie, which is pretty awesome because. And these drafts, I never do that well.

[A]

Yeah, yeah. You rarely win.

[E]

Like, rarely.

[A]

Good win, though. Solid win. 43%. Eddie wins. That rarely happens. Usually it's just Eddie and Ray switching out.

[E]

Right.

[A]

So I'm out. I deserve to be out, man. You get that number one.

[E]

That's a lot of pressure, man.

[A]

I hate number one. Whenever you don't know the letter and it's so dumb.

[E]

Like, we know a lot of songs, but when you're like, all right, one that starts with B, you're like, and I did this.

[A]

I put the timer on it. So we didn't take. So I was like, all right, 30 seconds go. And I'm like, it's a lot of pressure. So, yeah, that's what's up. Congratulations to Eddie and bad luck for me and Morgan will be back in the next time. The main suspect in Madeline McCann's disappearance was released from prison. If you guys saw this New York Post. Christian Bruckner, the man identified by investigators as the main suspect in the 2007 disappearance of British toddler Madeline McCann, was released after completing a seven year sentence for an unrelated crime. He was 49. Long criminal history, but she was the one who was three years old. They were in Portugal, like, on vacation, and they were in, like, their hotel, and they went to, like, have dinner or whatever. Left her in the room.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Yep, yep, yep. They don't. But they don't know where she is still. It's almost like the story of here in the States. What's her name?

[D]

Jonbene.

[A]

That's it.

[E]

John Benette Ramsey.

[D]

Yeah, but she died they found.

[E]

They know.

[A]

Yeah. But they don't know who it is.

[D]

Right?

[A]

Yeah, yeah, that was my point. You're right. They don't know what happened to her. JonBenet Ramsey. They did.

[D]

Cause, like, haven't there been people that think they know who she is as an adult?

[A]

Jon Ramsey?

[D]

No.

[A]

Oh, my wife. Well.

[D]

Cause, Morgan, my wife.

[A]

That's right. She would be 22. Her parents continue to campaign each year for answers. The New York Post with that story. There you go with that one. Brett James died. And so Brett James is a very famous songwriter. Let's see, we did a Bobby cast. We reposted it yesterday. I didn't make a big deal about it, but some listeners were asking if I. Asking if I'd ever done one with them. So we reposted it Yesterday on the Bobbycast feed. But Brett James was 57 years old. He had written a ton of number one songs. Him and I had worked together on a few different occasions. The last thing we did was that songwriter straight to movie theater thing that we did. Oh, yeah, he was really nice. And he was flying his airplane. He wrote Jesus Take the Will with Carrie Underwood. He wrote. He wrote a bunch of massive songs. But a Cirus SR22T crashed on Thursday.

[D]

Single engine.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

Two women, his wife and his daughter.

[E]

Stepdaughter, I think.

[A]

Is that what it was? Oh, his wife and her daughter.

[E]

Yes, her daughter.

[A]

Yeah. Both from Tennessee were also killed in the crash. The crash happened on a property neighboring the Ayatla Valley Elementary School. Both students and staff were all reported safe. Officials are still trying to figure out what caused the plane crash with the NTSB leading the investigation. News Channel 5 with that story. Very, very beloved songwriter here in town. Super nice guy, wildly successful. So successful, he got. He left Nashville. You got to be pretty big and have a lot of money to do that because this town is so much of being available and be constantly on a calendar with other writers. But 57 died in a plane crash. It's crazy. Brandon, did you ever write with Brett? You did? Yeah. Dang. Did you write a bunch with him?

[F]

It was about three or four times, really.

[A]

He was super nice. So nice.

[B]

And just an incredible writer and singer.

[A]

Yeah. All right, well, why don't we take a break and then we will come back in just a second. This is an ad by BetterHelp.

This is the Bobby Mo Show.

[A]

All right, let's run through some voicemails here. Number one, the Arkansas versus Memphis game. I'm just calling to make sure Bobby's okay. Just watch the call get overturned. I know it's going to be a rough week in for him. Just calling to check on his well being. Love the show. Have a good one. Yeah, I mean, whatever. What do you want?

[E]

Yeah, man, what do you want?

[A]

What do you want? You know my well being, you know, it sucks. Whatever.

[E]

When people say, like just checking in on Bobby after that last. Are they really checking in on you?

[A]

No, they want me to talk about it. They want to hear that I'm upset. They want to hear me be upset. You're not checking on my well being. You don't give a crap. That sucks, man. It sucks. Keep pounding though. The Panthers won. Oh, yeah.

[E]

They did win. Keep pounding, man.

[D]

Does that help you?

[A]

They kill. No.

[E]

Well, why not?

[D]

They're fan forever.

[A]

I know, but I only spent part of my life in Charlotte. I've been like.

[E]

You can't even say I've been like once.

[A]

I've been once or twice. I did watch the game. They. They killed Atlanta right at 40s. Nothing like that. Yeah, I. I turned it off like third quarter because it was so. I only have four splits on the screen and so I turned it off because I was like, I don't need to watch this anymore. It's over. We just pounded. Go ahead. Number two.

[D]

I wondered if Amy knew how hot.

[C]

The Panthers coach is.

[D]

If she hasn't been watching NFL, she.

[A]

Should have a great day.

[D]

Is that your team?

[A]

That's the Keep pounding. Yeah.

[D]

Panthers.

[A]

Head coach Dave Canales.

[D]

Oh, okay.

[E]

What do you think?

[A]

Don't mind if you do.

[D]

Yeah, he looks like something you like.

[A]

He looks like what?

[D]

He looks like a. Like a. Like an actor. Like a movie star. Looks like he, like he's out of Hollywood.

[E]

He likes it.

[A]

Don't mind if I do.

[E]

She said, do you want to.

[D]

44.

[A]

He's born 81. Yeah.

[E]

Do you want to look at the salary or are you good where you're at?

[D]

I'll look it up.

[A]

Hey, for the sake of the bit.

[D]

She'Ll look it up because like, why wouldn't I? Oh my gosh. What the. He has a 62 million dollar contract.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

I mean, granted that's over seven years.

[A]

But still it's pretty good.

[D]

That's about 8.5 per season if my math is correct.

[A]

Do you see that?

[D]

Yeah, it says it in the article.

[E]

So why would you say if your math was correct? Because it sounds cool.

[D]

Yeah, just because. Look like I ran some quick numbers.

[A]

Crunch the numbers back to it. Then give me number three.

[D]

My 17 year old son has downloaded.

[A]

A sports betting app. He put in my name and my.

[D]

Date of birth and now he's won $100 over the weekend and wants to scan in my driver's license to get his money. He will be 18 in December. Is this an extremely bad parenting decision? Love you guys. Thanks.

[A]

You can't do that. You can't be underage. What you as the parent can do, you can do it, but don't let your kid do that. You get in some trouble. That's all we're gonna say. Yeah. Yeah.

[E]

That's fair.

[A]

Yes. Like I love DraftKings. It's one of my favorites. We hit our big parlay we put up this weekend. I guess I did.

[E]

Yeah. I didn't put that one up.

[A]

Yeah. Love DraftKings, but if you're underage, don't. Don't be doing it. But you as a parent, can do it. Have a little fun, as long as it's for entertainment purposes. Get it, lady. That's what I say.

[E]

It's so much fun.

[A]

It is. And use the code. Bobby Sports. One word, Bobby Sports. And put that in and let it rip. But don't let your son. If he's below that legal limit. Nope. But you. Yes.

[E]

Next year, though, he's gonna have a blast.

[A]

No, 21.

[E]

Oh, well, then, wait, is it.

[A]

What is it? It's gotta be 21, right? Or is it 18?

[E]

I thought the law.

[A]

Maybe it's 18, dude. I don't know. Laws.

[E]

Yeah, I don't know either.

[A]

I know I don't have to, man.

[E]

If it's 18, I'm gonna tell my son next year, dude, you're gonna have a blast.

[A]

What do you got? Maybe it's 18. In some states it's 18, some is 21. Well, it depends on the state you're in there, lady. Do it, lady. All right, next one.

[C]

I have been watching everyone's Instagram reels from the I Heart Festival, and I just have to give props to Lunchbox. He did an amazing job, from what I've seen, keeping his composure and not being too extra of the performers and artists coming through right at the lunchbox.

[A]

No screaming incidents? Lunchbox. No artists being scared of you this year?

[F]

No, I don't think anybody was scared of me. And I don't know what she means by keeping my composure. I feel like I could keep my composure all the time. I just, you know, see him backstage, and I like to say hello and, you know, give him a little dap. Hype them up before the show or after the show. I give them, you know, words of encouragement and just kind of my interactions. I don't know that I've ever been to, like, over the top with them.

[A]

Yeah, there's like, 30 incidents, but that's. I didn't. I. I don't really care to reflect on that. But I was asking this year.

[F]

Oh, no, this year was great. I mean, LL Cool J, you know, he gave me daps. Ed Sheeran gave me daps before he went on stage. As he was walking out, I was like, oh, you're about to kill. You're about to kill. And he looked right at me, walked over, gave me some fist bump, and I was like, yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Pretty cool. Except I didn't see Mariah. I tried to. I tried to sneak around there, trying to find Mariah beforehand, but she was lock and key. They didn't let me around her.

[E]

There we go.

[A]

That's good.

[F]

Like, even when she was coming off, I went and positioned myself, like, where her dressing room was. I don't know. They must have had some secret tunnel.

[A]

That's weird.

[E]

Dressing room.

[A]

Like you're positioning yourself near a dressing room. It's a little weird.

[F]

I mean, because she's got to come off stage. So I thought I'd just get her while she was walking back to the dressing room. I wasn't going to be in her dressing room, but they had some secret way because they never came back that way.

[A]

Did you watch any performances?

[F]

Yeah, I watched a lot of them. I watched 90% of them.

[A]

Do you have a favorite?

[F]

Ed Sheeran is unbelievable. I mean, the way he does that thing, that looper thing, I think that is so cool. Like he makes everything right there. So there's no. I don't know. So it's different every time. I guess every concert he goes to, the sound could be different because he has to do the boop boop. And then he goes into another mic and then you start hearing it.

[A]

Oh, I thought he was playing a clip of Ed Sheeran when he was doing that. Yeah, that's exactly how he did it. Yeah.

[F]

Who else was good? Those Offspring people were good. They were fun. And really, when they started playing, I was like, oh, I know that song. I've heard that one before. So I actually knew a couple of their songs. That was pretty neat. The crowd loved Jelly Roll, that he brought the energy. Who else was there that I liked? That John Fogerty dude. Like I said, I never seen him perform. And for 80 years old, that dude could move. He really sang.

[A]

Yeah, I was a little nervous about him getting up there because I'd spent an hour plus at my house with him in Nashville. And so he's an older guy for sure. And he walks slow walks like what you think an 80 year old would. And then I saw him backstage and we talked for a little bit and he walked slow and he's an older guy, but man, when he gets on stage, it's like. Goes hard like still, like screams the songs. It was really good. Yeah, I agree. I didn't see. I didn't see Jelly Roll perform Jelly.

[E]

Roll was good on stage. He's really good.

[A]

What about. I didn't see Tim McGraw. I introed him on stage, and then I had to go to the back to record stuff. How was his set?

[E]

Tim was good.

[A]

He.

[E]

He didn't play a lot of hits. He played.

[A]

I saw his set list. It was, like, odd. Not. Not odd, but like, older songs that were number ones but not massive.

[E]

Not massive. And then somewhere in the middle, he goes, man, I guess they're gonna want me to play the hits. So he played something like that. And then he went to a new song after that.

[A]

His nephew performed with him. Timothy?

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

How'd that go?

[E]

Pretty good. I mean, you can tell he was nervous because, I mean, that's a hard. That's a hard place to play in Vegas. T. Mobile arena, it's huge. But he went out and owned it. He was on the catwalk with him.

[A]

Yeah. There's a picture of me and Timothy when he was 10 years old.

[E]

No way.

[A]

At the Grand Ole Opry. Wow.

[E]

How old is he now? Like, 20s now.

[A]

He's a. Maybe a sophomore at LSU.

[E]

Okay.

[A]

I think that's what he is. So. Yeah, I mean, 19 or 20.

[F]

So he wants to be a singer? Is that really what I mean? Or is it just. It's cool. Because his uncle is Tim, so he.

[A]

Sang with him one other time. He sang with them at the Field of Dreams.

[E]

Oh, they did?

[A]

Yeah, they did a concert before. Like, the game. Let's see. I don't know if he wants to be a singer or not. He's pretty good. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah, I talked to him before the show, but. Yeah, I don't know. Okay, next one up, Ray. Play number six. Keep pounding. Go Panthers. Bobby, I'm not sure if you saw the game, man. It was good. 30 to 0. I was there. It was an amazing atmosphere. Home opener anyway. Go Panthers. Hey, we keep pounding Bubba, you know.

[E]

You and your people, man.

[D]

Did you say Bobo?

[A]

No, Bubba. We keep pounding Bubba. That should be what it is. Keep pounding Bubba.

[E]

I like that.

[A]

Yeah. Because I'm a lifelong fan. I have the right to change the slogans. I saw Ray. Do you see his Instagram? Him and his twin brother?

[E]

No. Did they? Where were they?

[A]

So Ray has a twin, but you guys hadn't seen each other in how long, Ray?

[B]

Seven years, so.

[A]

And they don't even talk. What?

[E]

That's a long time.

[A]

Especially your twin. So how. Why did you guys get together?

[B]

My mom just decided for the 40th birthday. She kind of pitched it to him. He was down at work with my schedule, so then we decided to meet in Detroit.

[A]

Oh, you went to Detroit?

[B]

Yeah, we went to a couple Tigers games, and they were only there for 24 hours, so it was wham, bam, thank you, ma'. Am. Got the reunion in, you know, did daps and that was that. He doesn't really talk a lot. He's pretty quiet.

[A]

How did it feel to see him?

[B]

It was great. And I mean, let's be real, we used to be womb mates, so.

[E]

Oh, mates.

[A]

Got it.

[B]

So we picked up right where we left off.

[A]

Well, where did you leave off?

[E]

The womb.

[B]

Yeah, just talking sports. And especially when you're just at a baseball game, you don't really have to talk about too deep of stuff. It's just like, oh, look at that guy's bat. Oh, man, that guy threw it hard. You know, stuff like that.

[A]

Did you guys hug?

[B]

We didn't hug. We just did the. The bro daps. We never really had a relationship where we hugged and kissed and stuff.

[A]

I didn't say kiss, relax. I just wondered if you saw your brother, your twin brother, after seven years and you gave him a hug. I don't think that's crazy.

[E]

Like, embraced him, Ray.

[B]

I'm the one that did the embracing. But, yeah, he didn't really go for a hug motion, so I did the daps.

[A]

If you would have said, hey, look, give me a hug, what would he have said?

[B]

I don't know if we've ever hugged in your life. Even my dad. My dad gave me a handshake when he left, and then I kind of went around for the half hug. I'm like, dad, give me a dang hug, man. You're 70 years old.

[A]

So that's why you and your brother don't hug, then. It's not the family culture.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's pretty much how it is.

[A]

Was it good to see him?

[B]

Yeah, it was. It was great. And we had the one lobby night was the funniest because we were just at the bar just shooting the crap. And he doesn't have the greatest memory. And it's kind of how I realized that he's not that confident. Talking about, like, stuff that happened yesterday. So if you see stuff with your eyes, he's confident in it. So we make, you know, just teasing people at the bar. We're like, oh, look at the bartender. He's trying to pick up that chick. So if he sees it, then he's confident in it. But since he doesn't have A great memory. He's not good at talking about stuff that happened a week ago or a month ago. So he never asked, hey, how was the wedding? How's your life at work? He never asked that because he's not confident in it. He's only confident in stuff that he sees. And I just kind of realized that this weekend.

[E]

I don't understand.

[A]

I've never heard that in my life.

[B]

Right. So this. It's kind of deeper than that. So when we were in the womb together, the umbilical, you guys had these talks.

[A]

You guys had these talks?

[B]

No, no, no. The umbilical cord wrapped around his head and he lost a lot of brain cells. So his memory is horrible.

[E]

Ray, is this real?

[A]

Right?

[D]

Does he know you say this?

[B]

Well, I mean, it's dead serious. It's just part of our story that's kind of. It's like, man, you're really bad. Ray not having deep conversations because his memory isn't that good. So it's kind of difficult to have those conversations.

[A]

I feel like this is an excuse.

[B]

I mean, that's why we got life flighted. I said I was born in Utah because my mom did some.

[A]

No, no. I'm not saying this didn't happen. Right.

[B]

But it makes sense that I was life flighted because of an umbilical cord being wrapped around his head.

[A]

All that. I completely understand.

[B]

It would be a pretty crazy story to make up, me not even being a medical professional. So I think you can take for it being real.

[A]

No, no, no one is arguing that that is not real. The life.

[E]

The life flight, all of that, that's real.

[A]

Yeah, but the whole memory loss, if he doesn't see it, he can't think about it. That feels odd.

[B]

Well, like an example. So he's very quiet, and it's not like he's. That's what I'm saying. That's why we didn't talk about my wedding. That's why I'm not like, how's your work? How's my work? That stuff just doesn't come into his mind. And like, an example is we were walking by the Detroit Lions football stadium, and he goes, oh, like, one of the letters was all messed up. Instead of Ford Field, it said Eard Field. Like, there was letters blown out. And he goes, man, you think they'd fix that before the season? And I was like, what? The season's been going for, like, three weeks. But because of his memory, he didn't even know that the season had started.

[D]

I don't know.

[B]

So I'm just saying it was very surface level conversation. If it was something we saw, we talked about it, but there was no, like, reminiscing over the last seven years, if that makes sense.

[E]

You know, just accept it.

[A]

Yep. Yeah. Well, I'm glad you get to see your brother. He looks. You guys look alike in the face like crazy. It's crazy.

[B]

We do. And, yeah, he's. He's kind of in the sawmill all day, so he might look a little bit rougher. He's got some tattoos.

[A]

No, I never say look rougher. I just said your faces look the same.

[B]

Okay. Yeah, but I'm just saying he. So, I mean, in the pictures that I put on my Instagram, I was smiling. He's kind of a rougher guy. You know, he goes to the sawmill, so he's not necessarily going to get a smile out of the guy.

[E]

Hey, Ray, when you guys leave each other, do you do like, hey, man, let's keep in touch a little more? Or how did that end? Or were you just kind of like, all right, see, I won't talk to you in seven years again?

[B]

Well, it's funny because I. I'm the one that actually even reached out as they were getting in the Uber. I was like hugging my, you know, half hug with my dad. Sister. Finally got a hug from somebody. Nephew doesn't hug me. I mean, I don't even know what I did to him. Slapped his back. And then I literally look in the Uber and I'm like, rob, I'll see you later, man. I don't even think he's gonna say bye. So there you go.

[E]

Maybe he forgot.

[B]

That's Michigan people, though. Some of them are quiet. Some don't like to talk, some don't like to say bye.

[E]

Michigan, man.

[B]

That'S. They say Michigan people, you know, somebody's from Michigan, when they look at their feet, they don't look you in the eye. But that's just how my brother is. He wears earplugs. He doesn't talk a lot. We said hi and bye. The reunion was there. It's pretty much it.

[D]

Well, you know, earplugs or ear.

[B]

Yeah, earplugs. Because he works at the lumber.

[D]

Oh, yeah, that's right.

[B]

All day he doesn't talk, so he's just really not a big talker.

[E]

And your nephew didn't say anything to you either?

[B]

No, me and my nephew laugh and joke and all that, but, I mean, nephew's kind of followed along in the family. He's kind of a quieter guy. You really got to get it out of him. You're like, come on, man, joke around. You know, you punch him in the ribs, slap him in the butt, you know, get him talking.

[A]

Okay. Well, I hope you got out of it what you were hoping to get out of it.

[B]

Yeah, I would say going into it, I knew it. Exactly what it was going to be. And it. I mean, wish the Tigers would have won, but it was us just watching baseball, which we did our entire lives, joking around. It was good. It was good.

[A]

Good. Glad to hear it. Sorry about the whole life flight thing.

[B]

I know. Well, 40 years ago, but, yeah, I know.

[A]

Yeah. That's tough. That's tough. All right, let's. Let's go around the room. Amy.

[D]

Sorry. Very distracted by that. Sorry. I have it. Okay, so I have hobbies and passions that rewire your brain, and this is according to neuroscience.

[A]

What does that mean, according to neuroscience? Because that's just, like, such a massive, like, part of science.

[D]

People that study the brain, scientists that work and.

[A]

No, I know what neuroscience is when you're just saying according to neuroscience. You know, I'll just take the story. I'm gonna do like I did with Ray's. I'll just accept it. Go ahead.

[D]

The point is, like, your hobbies don't just have to be your hobbies. They can actually be serving you in some way.

[A]

I'm in.

[D]

Like, if you draw. Like, if you take time to draw, your emotions can turn into creativity, and that'll help you build patience.

[A]

What else you got?

[D]

Traveling. It turns fears into curiosity, and it'll give you a fresh perspective.

[A]

This feels like a buzzfeed article. Someone just writes it gets some, you know, engagement.

[E]

Is golf in there?

[A]

Actually, yes. It teaches you adversity?

[D]

No, but music is. And that's a hobby of yours, Eddie. You want to know what music does?

[E]

Yeah.

[D]

Turns frustration into flow and discipline.

[E]

That's cool.

[D]

Animals in nature. This one's for me. It turns stress into presence, joy and oxytocin. Bobbi's not feeling this. Let's see. What about reading and researching? That's right up your alley.

[A]

I just feel that this is somebody just writing an article.

[D]

Well, you love to read, right?

[A]

That depends.

[D]

And you love to research.

[A]

I do. I. You.

[D]

You say all the time when you're watching a show, you start Googling, and then you end up a rabbit hole and you're reading all about it.

[A]

I get interest in certain things, but go ahead. I don't know that I love to research, but I feel you.

[D]

Okay, well, what that's doing for your brain. It turns overthinking into learning and exploration.

[E]

Ooh, that's cool. Is there anything about sports watching now.

[D]

There'S museums and art galleries. Anybody into that?

[A]

Basically the same.

[D]

It turns rushing into stillness and deeper appreciation. Whatever you'll earn into it.

[A]

And who wrote this? Neuroscience. Mr. Neuroscience.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

Can we go on the record and say this one might be worse than Craig Robinson?

[D]

No, it is not.

[A]

No, because.

[D]

No, it is not.

[A]

We both came with Craig Robinson. That's why that story was so funny.

[E]

He was gonna quit.

[A]

It wasn't that. That story didn't matter because whatever. None of these stories really matter.

[E]

Very good.

[A]

But it's that you and Lunchbox both had a story about Craig Robinson the exact same day. Yeah. It was like, find. The goal for this podcast is find a story that would be fun for everybody to talk about.

[E]

Right.

[D]

Or give them, like, something that will help them in their overall well being. Which would be. This would be like, I need to look into a hobby today because I want to get curious or I want to feel more calm or I want to feel more present. So these are things you can do that will help your brain do those things.

[A]

Love it. What are you gonna say, Eddie?

[E]

I don't remember.

[A]

Then you need to go to more museums.

[E]

I don't remember.

[A]

If you don't remember. Okay, Lunchbox. See, we'll meet this with something completely the opposite, I would bet. Go ahead.

[D]

That's the beauty of it.

[F]

Yeah. Speaking of beauty, Travis Kelce has confirmed that they are already wedding planning, that it is going on ongoing and they are going to have a live band at their wedding. There will be no dj. They will have live music because Jimmy Fallon was on the podcast and they just started talking about the wedding. He's like, oh, yeah, it's already in the works. We're doing it. And they got into details. They're going live music, no dj. There you go. That's the update on the wedding of the year.

[A]

Thank you.

[E]

We're waiting on that.

[A]

He was fined, you know, like $14,000 something for grabbing his balls last week.

[E]

Oh, Kelsey, was. Was it celebration or.

[F]

Yeah, when he got a big play, he goes like, I got big balls.

[E]

I saw, too, that they're like. Like, they penalize you if you do the throat slashing.

[A]

Oh, that's been a thing forever.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

Like last night, there was a penalty after the touchdown. You can't slash your throat, right?

[D]

Yeah, but why? Why would that be a celebratory move?

[A]

Like. Like, I Just killed him like I killed you. You can't do guns either, right? Yeah, that was. That was later banned, but yeah. Slash.

[D]

Can you do like a karate chop?

[A]

Yes. You can do karate?

[E]

Cha. Yeah, the hands are fine. Yeah, just no sword slashing.

[A]

No slashing. Yeah. Eddie, your story. Yeah.

[E]

I'm gonna start off by saying if we talked about this, I apologize, but.

[A]

Ooh, that's.

[D]

I'm like, what?

[E]

I know it's risky, but I know we didn't talk about the update.

[A]

Okay. Okay.

[E]

So I feel like maybe Amy had talked about a museum robbery.

[D]

Yeah, I did. Oh, the museum heists are on the rise.

[E]

Okay, so this is kind of part of that. This is a stolen golden bracelet from a Egyptian pharaoh from like 4,000 years ago or 3,000 years ago. So it was stolen from not a museum, but a restoration place where they were trying to go and get it shined up and fixed up again. Well, one of the employees had stolen it and it had been missing for a few weeks. They finally found it. It was melted, and they found out that the employees sold it for only $3,000.

[A]

Wow.

[E]

This is an old 4400. 4000 year old melted it. And they melted it just for the gold. Crazy, man.

[A]

And you get a catalytic converter and make that kind of money.

[E]

That's what I'm saying. Not this old relic.

[A]

That's. But they melted it probably so they couldn't get caught with it. Yeah. You melt it, it doesn't look like it. Somebody that sucks.

[E]

And it was funny because I was reading this around my. When my son was next to me and he was reading along with me, and he goes, oh, so he probably broke in, huh? I'm like, nope. Employee, employee.

[A]

Always someone on the inside.

[E]

He was. He was so confused. Like, why would you hire someone that's gonna steal one of the products in there? Like, well, they didn't know, you know, but it's funny how his mind was thinking, like, oh, well, how do. Like, why didn't they just not hire him?

[A]

Didn't work like that. It doesn't work like that. Okay, we gotta go. But.

[D]

But don't forget, do a hobby today.

[A]

If you're ever just looking for a hobby and you're curious, go to a museum, because that.

[D]

Or do some reading and some research.

[A]

Yep. Helps all kind of stuff. Your brain, impotence. All kind of stuff.

[E]

Thanks, Amy.

[A]

We're gonna go. And being completely forthcoming. We're exhausted. Yeah, we're tired. I mean, we're so tired that. And again, everybody does stuff we don't act like our stuff's any harder, but we were in Vegas the whole weekend doing the festival and those hours when you're out till like you guys 11, 12, that's actually like two or three. Then we, we had long flights and.

[E]

Do you keep a local time like on your watch or something?

[A]

Am I. It's just two hours. I don't need it on my watch. I can just. Minus two.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

Who changes their watch?

[E]

No, I, I leave my watch on Nashville time. So I always know like, oh, shoot.

[A]

Or you can just.

[E]

Minus two hours too much, man. I can't do that.

[D]

Are you.

[A]

Plus it depends on where you are. Like now we'd minus two, right? But yes, plus two minus.

[E]

It's just easier for me to look at my watch like, oh man, it's already like 1:00am I got to go to bed.

[A]

But couldn't you see it was 11 and just go, it's already 1am my.

[E]

Mind just sees 11 on a, on a local clock and I'm just like, let's go. It's still early.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Thank you guys. We will see you tomorrow. It wasn't extremely short today, but that's why it was a bit shorter. We want to have good energy for tomorrow. We'll see you guys.
