1. Who Pooped In The Pool?!

The episode opens with a lively discussion about a viral TikTok clip featuring a kindergarten graduation where minimal clapping extended the ceremony unnecessarily. Bobby Bones introduces the topic humorously:

Bobby Bones [03:28]: "There is a clip that went viral because they were just lying. One clap at kindergarten graduation."

The hosts debate whether the extended clapping was intentional to shorten the event or a strategy to ensure everyone receives applause. The conversation takes a humorous turn as they mimic the awkward clapping sequence, highlighting the absurdity of the situation.

2. TSA and Phone Theft Concerns

Transitioning from the graduation mishap, the hosts delve into a listener's story about a TSA agent advising against placing phones directly in security bins to prevent theft.

Eddie [05:03]: "A woman claims a TSA agent told her to never put her phone directly in a bin because they're stolen on a regular basis."

Amy Martinez adds her perspective on safeguarding valuables:

Amy [05:38]: "Always make sure that your valuables are zipped up into your bag when they go through the scanners."

The discussion explores the balance between security measures and the practicality of protecting personal items during travel.

3. Rescue Operation for Hiker in Indonesian Volcano

A gripping segment covers the ongoing rescue efforts for Brazilian tourist Juliana Marin, who fell into the crater of an active Indonesian volcano. The hosts express concern over the challenges faced by rescue teams due to unpredictable weather and treacherous terrain.

Ray [12:49]: "A massive rescue operation is underway after a hiker tumbled from a cliff next to the crater of an active Indonesian volcano."

Bobby Bones questions the feasibility of rescuing Juliana, considering the shifting conditions:

Bobby Bones [14:05]: "But why can't they drop food down?"

The hosts empathize with Juliana's predicament, discussing the urgency and emotional toll on her family and the rescue teams.

4. Understanding Bibliotherapy

The conversation then shifts to the concept of bibliotherapy, a form of self-help through reading. Amy Martinez introduces the term:

Amy [08:12]: "I learned a new word. Bibliotherapy."

Bobby Bones and the hosts discuss how books like "The Alchemist" and "The Four Agreements" can provide personal insights and emotional support, even if they aren't traditional self-help books.

Amy [09:30]: "It can even be a fiction book. Like you may resonate with. Pick a book. Hunger Games, 50 Shades of Gray."

The segment emphasizes the therapeutic benefits of reading and how different genres can impact personal growth and understanding.

5. Guest Interview: Elizabeth Nichols on Her Music Journey

One of the highlights of the episode is an in-depth interview with emerging artist Elizabeth Nichols. Bobby Bones shares his excitement about her appearance on the show and her unexpected success on the Kelly Clarkson Show.

Bobby Bones [28:33]: "Elizabeth, good to meet you finally."

Elizabeth recounts how her debut song gained traction on TikTok, leading to Kelly Clarkson covering her track on national television—a development that took her by surprise.

Elizabeth Nichols [29:13]: "It was a whirlwind. So I moved here for law school and put out the song, and in January, Kelly DMs you."

Bobby Bones praises her rapid rise in the music industry and discusses her plans:

Bobby Bones [35:45]: "It's super cool that you pivoted because either you have to commit early or pivot hard."

Elizabeth shares her background in music, her move from Kentucky to Nashville, and how her family's support has been instrumental in her transition from law school to a music career.

Elizabeth Nichols [34:35]: "Little Big Town was really cool for me. They're so sweet."

The interview concludes with Elizabeth highlighting her future projects, including more festivals and new music releases, showcasing her dedication and passion for her craft.

6. Voicemails and Listener Interactions

The hosts engage with listeners through voicemails, addressing various topics:

• Pool Poop Incident:
  Eddie recounts a humorous yet gross experience of dealing with repeated instances of someone defecating in the community pool.

  Eddie [43:08]: "Somebody pooped in the pool there with a net, like, trying to get it. It's terrible."

• Karen Reed Trial Commentary:
  A listener from Ohio shares their opinion on the Karen Reed trial, expressing belief in her innocence after watching related segments.

  Lois [39:02]: "If anybody watched Dateline over the weekend about the entire case, it was clear that she was framed. I agree with you. Completely innocent."

• TV Show Recommendations:
  Amy and Lunchbox discuss differing tastes in television humor, highlighting the subjective nature of comedy preferences.

  Amy [39:18]: "I disagree with Lunchbox on almost everything except his taste in TV shows."

These interactions illustrate the hosts' rapport with their audience and their willingness to engage in diverse conversations, from light-hearted to serious topics.

Bobby Bones There is a clip that went viral because they were just lying. One clap at kindergarten graduation. This is from Angelica Pueblas one on Tick Tock. Go ahead. James Rodriguez.

[Amy]

Allison Martinez.

[Eddie]

What is happening? Is that something that they planned like just to like, hey, so. Because they always tell you graduations don't overdo it.

[Bobby Bones]

Graduations sometimes allowed people clap. Cheater mostly. And people online are going, well, it's because some kids don't get as many claps. No, it's because they don't want the graduation taking 10 years because. Michael. Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap.

[Lunchbox]

Whoa.

[Bobby Bones]

Clap, clap. Wow. Michael. Michael.

[Amy]

Woo.

[Bobby Bones]

Michael does a little thing. Got a little viral clip. The graduation is now three times longer because of that. I didn't realize that you do the clap for everybody.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

So yes, I thought it was more.

[Eddie]

About the, the whole, you know, like some people don't have family there. So don't make them feel bad.

[Bobby Bones]

I think that could probably be a minor part of it, but it's not the major part of it. The major part is they don't take four hours doing it because we would have those where it's like, hey, we'll clap for everybody at the end. Not graduations, but for anything. But was it one clap? Because that sounds weird. Ray. Play that again. James Rodriguez. It sounds like you're breaking a huddle. 42, 42. Red dot, red dot, read. So it sounds awkward, but you know the rules. And at the end everybody gets a clap. And mostly it's so they can get people out of there. You don't want to sit in there because 83 other kids have really long claps. Even if yours is the longest. Graduations take forever. Especially that Part where they're just handing it out. So. And you do hear some of the dads take advantage of it.

[Eddie]

You get a woo in there, throw one in there.

[Bobby Bones]

Nothing wrong with a woo. You can woo all day, all night. A woman claims a TSA agent told her to never put her phone directly in a bin because they're stolen on a regular basis.

[Morgan]

The thing I'm absolutely never doing when I go through tsa, I am not putting my phone directly into one of the container or bins. I did this once. The TSA agent looked at me and said, this is the fastest way to get it stolen. Number one thing that they see stolen on a regular basis is phones, and that's because they are left out and available and, you know, the lines can back up and somebody could just swipe it and you're not paying attention until you realize it's too late. Always make sure that your valuables are zipped up into your bag when they go through the scanners.

[Bobby Bones]

Question. If you steal a phone, okay, what are you going to get from my phone? So it must not be about information. It must be about the actual hardware then, like, can you even reboot someone's phone if you don't know all of. Or any other numbers or their face? Or like, Mike, help me out here. I think there's a way you can factory reset it without having a face or without knowing the number. Pretty shady, but I think it can be done. Yeah, I feel like my phone's pretty safe because it's impossible to get into it and the real value would be in it. But if there's a way to. They used to call it Apple picking, but back in the day, what they would do is they grab somebody's iPhone, their Apple iPhone. It was called Apple picking, but it was before there was either the touch thing on the bottom where you put your thumb on it, typing in the code, or doing the face. So anybody ever had their phone stolen? I actually have no fear of my phone being stolen, and I could be wrong, but I feel like my phone is the safest thing because what are you going to do with it?

[Amy]

That's what I.

[Bobby Bones]

And Also I have AppleCare, so I'll take it back. I'll take another one, please. I'll take a newer one because it got stolen at the airport. Morgan.

[Ray]

It didn't happen to me. My friend and I were out on Broadway and her phone got swiped right from her bag.

[Bobby Bones]

And did anything ever happen where it was, oh, my identity was stolen or my Venmo was Into because cops can't even get in their phones.

[Ray]

Yeah, it wasn't that. But we did watch it. Like we. She had her find my iPhone on and so we watched it and it like slowly went away from Broadway and then it just like disappeared off the radar. So they basically wiped her phone almost immediately. Everything she had on it was then gone. So she didn't lose her identity, but she lost everything that was on that phone because they wiped it.

[Bobby Bones]

Criminals can wipe a phone to sell it, but there are precautions in place to make this more difficult. Methods Criminal Use 1. Factory Reset. A common method is to perform a factory reset which removes settings, apps and data stored on the phone. However, this might not be completely valuable because you erase all data and some may be recovered using data recovery software. Overriding data. I don't know. Seems like if someone's going to steal it at the airport, they're going to be at the exact right place at the exact right time and have the exact right job and then know exactly how to do this.

[Eddie]

I always see my bag go in and come out. Like, I don't know the opportunity when they can actually steal it. Because the only time I don't have my stuff is when it goes to the radar.

[Bobby Bones]

You know what I would steal? I would be one of the ones that would go through bags and need to do bag checks that aren't. I'd steal from that all the time. Yeah, like, okay, bags that have been checked, I'm gonna go through it. That's where I'd steal from. There's some good stuff in there. You know, I'm gonna reset the stuff. Get you a nice sweater. All right, so there's that. I was just confused. But if you can factory reset it, that does make sense. Amy, over to you.

[Amy]

I learned a new word.

[Bobby Bones]

Go for it.

[Amy]

Bibliotherapy.

[Bobby Bones]

Bibliotherapy.

[Amy]

Ever heard of it?

[Bobby Bones]

What's its origin?

[Amy]

I don't have a virgin, actually. No, you would think that.

[Bobby Bones]

I would not think of the Bible Biblio. If it was biblical therapy, maybe the.

[Amy]

Co. Biblio and then therapy. But it's like when you use a book, it can be fiction or nonfiction, but you use it to better yourself or you use it to better understand yourself or other people have empathy.

[Bobby Bones]

A self help book.

[Amy]

It can even be a fiction book. Like you may resonate with. Pick a book. Hunger Games, 50 Shades of Gray. What else have you read?

[Eddie]

Like that one.

[Bobby Bones]

That's the one you pick from.

[Amy]

50 Shades of I know you read that.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go the Alchemist, he reads a lot.

[Amy]

I know the Alchemist. Like you're. You gain insight from a book. It's not actual therapy or what would be considered traditional therapy, but bibliotherapy is when you have some revelation about yourself or it helps you in a way. And it could be something fiction. It doesn't have to be self help. That's a big deal.

[Bobby Bones]

The Alchemist, was that.

[Amy]

That was bibliotherapy for you?

[Bobby Bones]

Sure, I think so, yeah.

[Amy]

It was about love.

[Bobby Bones]

No, but about chasing your. What is it? Your compass.

[Eddie]

Is that the one I have?

[Bobby Bones]

No, you have.

[Amy]

You have four agreements.

[Eddie]

No, no, you haven't gotten me that one yet. I'm waiting on that to read.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, somebody else gave you the Alchemist.

[Eddie]

A listener sent it to me.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, your personal legend, I think is what it's called.

[Amy]

Oh, you're pro. Oh, okay. I haven't read it. I just know that when a guy was trying to woo my niece last year, he sent her like, a line from the Alchemist. So that's why I thought. Love.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no love. But love can be your personal legend. But it's really not about love. But it is a fiction book, but with intention.

[Amy]

But it resonated with you.

[Bobby Bones]

No, with intention. For non fictional purposes. Gotcha. Yeah.

[Eddie]

What's with the castle in the front of it?

[Bobby Bones]

Let me see.

[Eddie]

That part of it.

[Amy]

Well, you read it on a Kindle probably, right?

[Bobby Bones]

I read it on an iPad or whatever.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And the castle probably represents the city that he's trying to get to.

[Eddie]

Above the clouds.

[Bobby Bones]

Just read the book, dude.

[Lunchbox]

How long you had that?

[Eddie]

Dude, I've had this for a couple months.

[Lunchbox]

And you carry it around with you every day?

[Amy]

No, no, no, no. If Eddie reads that book. Absolutely not. I'm not allowing him to read that book until he reads the book for his son.

[Bobby Bones]

I gave him the four agreements. That's ten pages long.

[Eddie]

No, no, no. Amy's got a point, though.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, but I said you won't ever read that son book because you're like, I'm not. I said that I gave you a smaller book to read that you could pull something from it that would give you the confidence to chase a book a little bigger than that, which is the therapy book that you were told to read that you won't read.

[Amy]

Guess what his therapist was assigning to him? Some bibliotherapy.

[Bobby Bones]

No, that's just straight, like, therapy. Therapist therapy.

[Amy]

But if it's a book. No, if you're using the Book as a tool to. That's. You can even tell your therapist to be like, I know that you ass. Bibliotherapy. But I haven't read it yet.

[Eddie]

He's gonna be like, what? What are you talking about?

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, lunchbox. What do you have?

[Amy]

New word.

[Lunchbox]

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez. I don't know if they're married. They're getting married.

[Bobby Bones]

They're getting married yet.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, well, they had a pre party this weekend on the yacht. And they are normal people. I love to see it. They had a foam party. Did you see it? The pictures of them on the yacht and there's foam everywhere. A big old foam party. That is what I'm talking about.

[Bobby Bones]

They get married tomorrow or the next day. Or the next day.

[Lunchbox]

How do they get married in the middle of the week? People don't have jobs.

[Amy]

Not their friends.

[Eddie]

Jobs.

[Lunchbox]

It was a joke.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, and they flew everybody out yachting. It. It's a whole thing.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, but the phone party.

[Bobby Bones]

I went to phone parties back in the day. Bamboo.

[Eddie]

Is that college?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, right after College. I was 22. Joe's Big Bamboo in Little Rock.

[Lunchbox]

Paradox. Dude, they had great phone parties in Austin. That's what I'm saying. Like, you're never too old for a phone party. And I love that they're bringing it back. The foam party gets a bad rap.

[Amy]

It's so disgusting.

[Bobby Bones]

But for whatever reason now. But I would grind on everybody sometimes. I didn't know it was a dude. You just start grinding. Is this foam? And you're like, oh.

[Eddie]

And then.

[Lunchbox]

Did you ever go to a phone party?

[Eddie]

Never. I never went to a phone party.

[Amy]

I feel like we need to have a phone party just for Eddie.

[Eddie]

Well, I know, like, a lot of the fraternities and sororities had them, and I wasn't part of that, so I never got invited to those.

[Bobby Bones]

We didn't have them at. Well, I didn't do anything at college. But, yeah, Joe's Big Bamboo had them. So we'd drive up to Joe's Big Bamboo in Little Rock. A funny name for a club. Joe's Big Bamboo. Yeah. They're just like us. Celebrities are like us. That's right, Morgan.

[Ray]

Okay, so I've been watching this whole dramatic rescue. Have you guys seen anything about this woman who is hiking in Indonesia and she fell in an active volcano?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, that's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

No. Was she taking a picture or did she just slip and fall?

[Ray]

Slipped and fell in. And they've tried. So she's still there. Like she's alive. And she's sitting in there. It's like one of those dormant but active volcanoes, you know, where it's, like, not actively going, but it could. And they've tried to rescue her, like, three different times because.

[Bobby Bones]

So is she just down there? Like a well? In a well?

[Ray]

Kind of.

[Bobby Bones]

There's no hot lava.

[Ray]

She's in the crater of the volcano.

[Bobby Bones]

Whoa. So no hot lava, but at any time it could. Yes, but she's deep, so imagining a well.

[Amy]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

And they can't get to her.

[Ray]

So the first time they try, like. So they took a drone, spotted her, and when the rescue team tried to go in, like, the fog lifted and they couldn't really see her. And so then they attempted again, and it was another weather problem and couldn't get to her. So they still see her, and she's kind of moving around because obviously this crater keeps kind of shifting. So she's still in there. And they have yet to, like, be able to actually go in to rescue her yet.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm looking at her.

[Amy]

Oh, my God.

[Bobby Bones]

And I see the drone footage. Can they, like, fly over and drop food in there?

[Ray]

It hasn't said that they have, but, like, the family's really mad because people are so hiking on this trail that she's in.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, they can see her. There's a lot of people that are looking down and she's down there. So surely they can chunk food and supplies down there to her.

[Ray]

Yeah. And I don't know, with. With a crater, if there's so much movement that it will get to her. I don't know, but they.

[Bobby Bones]

If what gets to her?

[Ray]

Like, if the food will. Like, if they send it down, will it just kind of.

[Bobby Bones]

They can drone over sinkhole. They can drone over the top of her and drop food, I would assume.

[Ray]

I would think. But the family who's, like, posting on social media about it hasn't said anything that that's happened.

[Lunchbox]

But is she. I mean, I'm crazy. She can't just climb up the side.

[Bobby Bones]

It's. It's not quicksand.

[Lunchbox]

Because I've seen it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Ray]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Because I saw the picture of her and I was like, oh, why didn't. If they have all these people that are helping her rescue, she can't just walk up the side. But there has to be a better way. They had to be able to get her out, right? There has to be some way.

[Ray]

Yeah. I mean, and it's all permitting the weather, and obviously you're on the top of a mountain, so weather changes all the Time, So that's probably why it's.

[Bobby Bones]

All the way down. Okay, well, I need to read some more of this. A massive rescue operation is underway after a hiker tumbled from a cliff next to the crater of an active Indonesian volcano. Brazilian tourist Juliana Marin, 26, was hiking with a group when she disappeared at 6am local time. She fell off a cliff surrounding a trail and plummeted next to a volcano's crater.

[Amy]

So the 6:30am it was before sunrise, so visibility was not great and they had little lanterns. But even then, the conditions to see and then the terrain was really slippery, so. So it kind of sucks for her that our first go to is like, oh, she was probably trying to take a selfie. And when really, I think this is just a.

[Bobby Bones]

But also, if you're gonna go hike around, make sure it's daylight. If it's a place you don't know.

[Amy]

But they were leading a hike.

[Ray]

There's a lot of Tibet. It's a national park, and I'm guessing you try and hit the summit to see the sunrise would be. My guess is that she was attempting to do.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't.

[Eddie]

Yeah. No way.

[Bobby Bones]

I want to sleep. I want to sleep in. If I'm hiking, I want vacation, so I want to sleep in.

[Ray]

It does say on the family's account that she hasn't had food or. Or water or warm clothes for three days.

[Bobby Bones]

They're flying things over the top of her. Why can they not drop things down?

[Amy]

Speaking of Hunger Games like a rope.

[Bobby Bones]

Rescue teams were less than halfway to the hiker when they were forced to retreat. The account chronicling her. Whatever. Just like, dancing and traveling all through the country. She's just, like, chilling, like, in her.

[Lunchbox]

Clothes, and she may be hurt, so maybe that's why she can't move.

[Bobby Bones]

But why can't they drop food down?

[Lunchbox]

That's a great question. I don't know about that because they.

[Bobby Bones]

Have pictures right over the top of her.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. You could drop a watermelon.

[Eddie]

And there's a race, too, for, like, time. Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Because she's in her bag while Julianne is needing help. We don't know the state of her health. She has no water, food, or warm clothes. Comments have flooded drone videos and posts. We are very grateful for your help. And there's like, all these people flying drones up there. Rescue crew. Yeah. It's crazy, huh? You think they just get her? I'm sure there's so much that we don't know, and they're not even putting the story.

[Ray]

Like, imagine you're just sitting there and you're in an active volcano crater.

[Lunchbox]

She'll be mentally screwed for the rest of her life.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know why now they save her. She's not like a real volcano. It ain't active.

[Eddie]

Plus if she saved, it'd be a good story to tell.

[Lunchbox]

She gets a book deal.

[Eddie]

Yeah, book deal.

[Amy]

It's not like her arm is stuck in a boulder and she's gonna have to saw it off.

[Bobby Bones]

And you guys act like anybody that's in anything hard gets a book deal.

[Eddie]

Oh yeah, that's a great story. I fell in the volcano.

[Bobby Bones]

That's the time the volcano wasn't live. You basically slipped down a cliff.

[Lunchbox]

Didn't you say it's an active volcano?

[Eddie]

That's all you got to say.

[Bobby Bones]

And people think it's like there's no lava right now. Right. But if the volcano starts to erupt and they say over just in time. That's interesting for a book deal. Otherwise you fell down a cliff and we.

[Eddie]

No, no, no. If that happen.

[Amy]

Movie to like share.

[Eddie]

Like if they rescue her, they'll rescue.

[Bobby Bones]

Her, but we won't think about this the second time once she's up.

[Lunchbox]

You're right.

[Eddie]

You're right about that. That's accurate.

[Lunchbox]

See a picture of her in a bikini?

[Bobby Bones]

No, go back. Hiker trapped three days. That sucks, right though?

[Lunchbox]

Eddie, check it out.

[Eddie]

No, I'm good, dude, I'm good.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie, what do you have?

[Eddie]

Yeah, this is kind of up Amy's alley. And please stop me if you've heard this story before, but now you will.

[Bobby Bones]

Be stopped because you're already on the wheel.

[Eddie]

No, I know, but in case I do it again. Yeah, just a heads up.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, we will let you finish and then we will double your punishment.

[Eddie]

So you know, people count their steps. 10,000 steps a day, whatever that's you're trying to do. There's a new trend called Japanese walking trend. Amy, have you heard of this?

[Amy]

Tell me more.

[Eddie]

So instead of doing like 60, 10,000 steps all day, you only do 30 minute workout. Three minutes fast paced walking, three minutes slow pace walking. You do that for 30 minutes and it's the same as trying to get 10,000 steps a day. It's like half.

[Amy]

I mean, dude, 30 minutes, like cardiovascularly.

[Eddie]

Yeah, they say it's more sustainable too. For like the workout. You're not, you're trying, you're, you're not looking at your watch all day being like, oh, I need to walk in circles. It's just a 30 minute workout.

[Amy]

I had to stop trying to get 10,000 steps, like, years ago because I got too obsessed with it. And I would, like, be. It'd be bedtime, and I'd be like, shoot, I'm at 9822. So I'd be marching by my bed before I let myself lay down, and I'm like, no more. I. I give up this life.

[Eddie]

I mean, Morgan was walking the hallways here.

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like that's just like an exercise.

[Eddie]

It's called the Japanese walking trend.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, it's just.

[Eddie]

And it says it's the same exercise as 10,000 steps. So don't waste your whole day trying to do that. Just do 30 minutes.

[Amy]

But you got to do three minutes.

[Eddie]

Of, like, three minutes high intensity.

[Amy]

High intensity walking.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, just like a workout. Just like you're doing a workout.

[Amy]

Yeah, it's like intervals.

[Lunchbox]

But that's what he said. He is a new workout. Instead of people that are, like, wasting their whole day trying to get 10,000 steps, they could take 30 minutes, get it done with, and then just live your life.

[Amy]

I know, but the 10,000 steps.

[Bobby Bones]

Most people who try to get 10,000 steps are also exercising in the middle of the day. You're not just gonna get those by living a normal day.

[Amy]

And if you have a very sedentary job, it's really difficult to get 10,000 steps. So I do think it's important to move your body. But there's even research now that's like, sometimes, like, does it have to be 10,000? Like, where did that number go?

[Bobby Bones]

Everybody's body's so different.

[Amy]

Everybody's. Yes, exactly. So different. I did see, though, when it comes to anxiety that at least getting. You know, obviously there's different levels of anxiety. So take this for what it's worth. But, like, if you can at least get 4,000 steps a day, it'll significantly help whatever's happening with your brain.

[Bobby Bones]

To.

[Amy]

Maybe push some of that aside. If it's a mild.

[Bobby Bones]

Going on a hike this weekend, it's been so rainy that it's basically all mud, even though it had been dry for a couple days.

[Amy]

Oh, you went in the trails.

[Eddie]

Where'd you go?

[Bobby Bones]

To the lake.

[Amy]

Nice.

[Eddie]

I saw a lake behind you.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, we went to the trails.

[Amy]

There's a. Well, there's.

[Bobby Bones]

There's a lake, but we didn't go to the lake. Went to the trails where there was a lake instead of the lake where there was a trail.

[Eddie]

Okay. I just saw the picture of you by the lake. It's like, look, nice. Look Peaceful.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, the picture was when it doesn't rain for one day because it's rained every day. And I. Huh.

[Amy]

Was it hot? I felt like it was so hot.

[Bobby Bones]

This week it's 93.

[Amy]

I was like, look at Bobby, hiking in the hot.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, it wasn't my choice to go hiking. It was my wife's. I think hiking is stupid. If there's a trail, I would rather hike. Like, harsh. I want to go on, like, volcanoes and stuff. Okay, no, but I would rather go places. I don't know, like. Like real hiking.

[Amy]

Like exploring.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Where the trail.

[Eddie]

People don't do that. Do people do real hiking where they just say woods. I'm going to go up that mountain trail.

[Bobby Bones]

That's literally the only hikes I've enjoyed. I mean, I enjoyed my wife, because we're talking. But like, as far as, like, an exercise hike, like, I've done, like, real mountains and you go hiking. There aren't trails.

[Amy]

But I bet that hike was good for your brain.

[Bobby Bones]

My brain's all right. Anyway, it's fair. I'm now wearing an OURA ring again. I had my first life season with it. And my wife's like, we need to wear it again so we can. Because I'm really cracking down on all these factors that are affecting my sleep. And so. So now I'm obsessed with that. It's my new obsession.

[Amy]

Well, by the way, I wasn't saying there's anything wrong with your brain. I was referring to, like, your sleep and anxiety.

[Bobby Bones]

You were referring to my brain?

[Amy]

Well, yeah, because I think it's you. You just asked me the other day for the brain.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I said my appointment. I got my appointment. I'm going Wednesday.

[Amy]

That's what I meant by your brain. I wasn't trying to say, like, you're.

[Bobby Bones]

Wednesday.

[Eddie]

Wednesday. That's. That's quick.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Isn't that acupuncture day?

[Eddie]

Are you gonna be busy?

[Bobby Bones]

I can do both. I go Wednesday, you have to go four weeks in a row. And then the fifth week you have to wait a week and then go, yes, five appointments.

[Amy]

Okay. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And I called and asked me a lot of questions.

[Eddie]

Oh, boy.

[Amy]

Yeah, they need that info.

[Lunchbox]

Like, how are you?

[Bobby Bones]

Riddles.

[Amy]

No, typical intake question.

[Bobby Bones]

Riddles.

[Eddie]

What's your favorite TV show right now?

[Bobby Bones]

It was written. No, it was riddles. Little Boy Blue.

[Eddie]

Okay. Oh, girl from Nantucket.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Anyway. All right. Thank you. Your story kind of suck, Daddy.

[Amy]

What? No, I like the Japanese walking train. I'm intrigued.

[Bobby Bones]

That's called just exercising.

[Eddie]

And I did say this is more up Amy's alley. Sounds kind of framing.

[Amy]

I think when you.

[Lunchbox]

So you're saying Amy stories usually suck.

[Amy]

No, isn't it when you hurts are.

[Bobby Bones]

More wellness and fitness related.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Except for today's. It hurts us about a bibliography.

[Eddie]

Don't worry though.

[Amy]

I got you bibliotherapy. Yeah, which if that woman writes a book from the volcano, it could be bibliotherapy for some people for sure. Also, one thing. Isn't it called when you run walk. Isn't that called fart licking?

[Eddie]

Oh boy.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know.

[Amy]

Fact check me, please.

[Eddie]

Fart licking.

[Amy]

Fart licking.

[Bobby Bones]

I would just call it doing intervals.

[Amy]

Fart licking.

[Bobby Bones]

But that's run one.

[Amy]

But it has a name.

[Eddie]

This is walk walk Fast Slow. Fast slow.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a form of interval training that involves. It's Swedish. That involves faster and slower running speeds. So it's not walking. It's fast running. Slow running.

[Amy]

Oh yeah. That one just popped in my head when Eddie said Japanese and you went.

[Bobby Bones]

To Swedish because it's all over there. Yeah, you guys are.

[Eddie]

No, it's all across the pond.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

How you doing?

[Bobby Bones]

Good. I was watching your TikToks and I think I wrote a message. I was like, hey, you should come do the show. Right?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

That's what happened.

[Bobby Bones]

That's literally what it is. I haven't done that in forever. But one, I think your song is so catchy and so fun. And then two, after that, I saw Kelly Clarkson sing it, and when she was singing, I was like, I know that song. And it turns out it was the song that I'd seen you perform on TikTok. How did that happen? Did they tell you Kelly Clarkson was gonna sing that on her show?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Yeah. So I got a DM on Instagram, like in January, and someone was like, hey, I work for the Kelly Clarkson Show. We wanna use the song for the show. We're gonna send some releases. So, you know, sign the papers and, you know, didn't think about it for six months.

[Bobby Bones]

And it was six months pre.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

It was six months pre.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Yeah. And I thought, like, you know, it was like, they're gonna play it during the credits or something. And I had no clue till my grandma texted me and was like, I'm watching the Kelly Clarkson show and she's singing your song.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, she was doing Kellyoke.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

It was so cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow. So how did she find it?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

She watches the Kelly Clarkson show.

[Bobby Bones]

No, not your grandma. Kelly Clarkson. Like, did somebody like, obviously she did Kelly Clarkson see it in her for you page?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Like, listen, you'll have to Kelly, I got no clue. I hope that's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

That's really wild.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I know. It's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

I would have thought I was being scammed.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I mean. Yeah, it was like a fever dream.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's super cool. And then I would have thought it never was going to happen. Once six months goes by, even three months goes by and it doesn't happen. And so what is it like for a song to go viral? Meaning you live it. So you're probably seeing it build over time. Did you put it out and it get some little traction? You do it again? Like, what was the process before this song started to really even see some traction on just tick tock.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Right. Initially, the song had some TikTok traction, which was crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, the first time you put it.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Out first, it was my first song I ever put out.

[Bobby Bones]

No way.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

That was song. It was crazy. I moved here to Nashville in August, put the song out in December.

[Bobby Bones]

And you know that never happens, right? Like that.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I know.

[Amy]

So December, you put it out and then Kelly Clarkson's people are reaching out to you in January.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Yes.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. That's crazy.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I know. It was crazy. It was a whirlwind. So I moved here for law school. For school and put out the song dropped out in January. It's like, you know, Kelly DMs you. I'm like, I'm dropping out.

[Bobby Bones]

So the song became successful and that inspired you to chase music and stop, at least for now.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Yeah, for now. I'm having fun.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow, that's so cool. I have a hundred more questions, but would you mind playing the song for us?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I can do that.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. So this song's great. I sing it all the time. I mess it up. My wife knows all the lyrics. I mess it up a little bit. So this is Elizabeth Nichols, and this is called I got a new one and let's take it away. Oh, I'm sorry, we can't post the live performance on the Podcast. But if you go to our YouTube page, you can watch it there or maybe listen live. Okay. All right, now back to the podcast. So Jackson is the third dude, but Jackson's also the guy who wrote the song with.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

That is true.

[Bobby Bones]

So was he like, you got to put my name in there?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

No, we, like, wrote the first chorus for Charlie and I was like, well, I want the second one to be a different name. We were like thinking, I'm like, well, your name's Jackson. That has some good Jackson, Charlie. So, you know, it was like a little nod to who I got to write it with. It was my first ever co write.

[Bobby Bones]

So have you been writing music, though? You came for law school like you said, but have you been writing music? Are you from Kentucky?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I'm from Kentucky, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So were you writing music at home?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I was in college in Oklahoma before I moved here, and I started writing music about a year before I moved here, so I was posting it on TikTok.

[Bobby Bones]

And did you grow up around music?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I grew up in church. I sang at church since I was born, and I was a writing major in undergrad in college. So, like short stories, English.

[Bobby Bones]

Pastor's kid? Yeah.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Grandkid and kid. Oh, yeah, Third generation.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you have any brothers?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Yeah, I have a little brother.

[Bobby Bones]

Does he feel the pressure to be a pastor?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Not at all.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

He's like. He's in a frat at uk, so he's on fun.

[Bobby Bones]

What's your life like right now? Because again, it's. You're starting to happen. And that's. That's a kind of a weird process because it might feel like to the outside person, that, man, she's everywhere. But you're like, man, I'm just trying to get anywhere. And people are just starting to pay attention. I don't know what's life like every day?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

You know, we're just doing it. I write songs every day and I'm having fun. It's. My life's completely changed over the past year, and it's such a blessing I could have never imagined.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you getting cooler co writes now that your song's popping off like more people wanted to write with you?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I think that's kind of. I love who I write with and I love who I've been writing with. So it's. It's all cool.

[Bobby Bones]

I think you got to open for a little Big Town.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I did. That was really cool.

[Bobby Bones]

So somebody just calls and says they'd love for you to come out and do a show or what.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

My agent, you know, Called me, said, do you want to open for Little Big Town? I said, book my ticket.

[Bobby Bones]

What do your parents say when you say, I think I'm going to not do law school?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

That was a big one.

[Bobby Bones]

And I'm going to do this absolutely unstable thing called music.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Right. My dad is the most supportive in the world. He was really excited for me, for me to be a lawyer, because he wanted a free lawyer, and so he was really excited. But now he gets free concerts and he has a. He has a printed off calendar in his room, and he has every show that I'm playing for the next year written down. And he's already bought his tickets for every single one. So, yeah, they're very supportive. They're very excited. They're more excited than I am.

[Bobby Bones]

How were they when you said, I think I'm going to quit school?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

It was a conversation, but it was. It was a positive one. It was like, whatever I want to do. Because I. I did my undergrad and I got my masters. I've done a lot of school.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Yeah, I like school a lot.

[Bobby Bones]

And you get your master's in what?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Business administration.

[Bobby Bones]

With the idea that you would use corporate law.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

That was the plan.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you watch Karen Retrial?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

No. Maybe I will.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's over. It's over.

[Amy]

What was drawing you to corporate law? Did you watch Suits?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I like Suits.

[Amy]

Me, too. Yeah, I was watching it last night. It's a good show.

[Bobby Bones]

Who have you met? That's been pretty cool.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Oh, so many people. Little Big Town was really cool for me.

[Bobby Bones]

They're really nice, too.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Oh, they're so sweet. They're so sweet. There's so many people even like my peers in country music. It's been so cool to kind of meet other people who are doing the thing and writing and so amazing, and it's just been a blessing. It's been a blessing.

[Bobby Bones]

This song. Is this, like, the song that you guys are going out with? Whatever that means. I mean, is this, like the single?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

This is on the ep. There's a few new ones, a few that are out. But this is definitely the emphasis right now with a few other Focus tracks.

[Bobby Bones]

So you're just gonna see how they all stream.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And then possibly pick. That's. It's super cool. It's super cool that you pivoted because either you have to commit early or pivot hard. Those are your two options because you weren't gonna be able to go to law school and then kind of do this.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

It was hard. I did one semester of like, writing and doing school. And, you know, I wanted to do both really bad because I loved law school. All my best friends are like five mean, tough lawyers. And it's like, if that's all I got out of law school, I have a great. It was worth it. Well worth it.

[Bobby Bones]

You can always go back to law school.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You may not always get this heat that you're getting right now. Congratulations. The song is super catchy and so fun and yeah, I hope the best for you.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

And thanks for coming in. I literally just watched a video and wrote on. Wrote on our comment. Hey, you should come do the show. And then I know somebody that is part of her. I didn't realize that part of her operation. They were like, hey, did you say she. I said, yeah, she'd come up. And so we got her up and so what's. What's next? Like, what, you gonna go do some more shows? Like, are you touring by yourself?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I'm playing a few festivals this year. I'm excited to get new songs out and people to hear more. I'm gonna put out a lot of music this year.

[Bobby Bones]

And are you gonna be resentful of. I got a new one in like three months when it's all people wanna hear.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Oh, listen.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I love it. I give the people what they want.

[Bobby Bones]

Good. Yes. That's exactly what you do.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

They wanna hear me sing it, I'll.

[Eddie]

I love them.

[Amy]

Your whistles are pretty perfect.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Thank you.

[Amy]

Not everybody can whistle like that. And you still look so pretty and cute whistling. I feel like I try to whistle and it gets awkward real quick.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a good point because she does whistle well. But I also felt like I shouldn't watch her whistle for some reason, so I just lowered my head and didn't watch her whistle.

[Amy]

Yeah, well, she's. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Have you always been a good whistler?

[Elizabeth Nichols]

It's a vibe.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

I was like, well, it's just because, you know, the choruses are different. And so I was like, well, I don't want to have a fourth man. I'm like, maybe I'll just whistle.

[Amy]

Oh, I was waiting for him, though. Like, I feel like maybe I'm okay with a party.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Maybe an alt version. Alt version.

[Amy]

We'll add some more off the record.

[Bobby Bones]

And it's Elizabeth. Your last name's Nichols. It's not like one Elizabeth Nichols, like his first name because you're from the South, I'm from Arkansas. So, you know, two name first names. It's Elizabeth Nichols.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

That's me.

[Bobby Bones]

Got it. Elizabeth, thank you for coming in. The song's awesome. I love it, and I wish you the best and can't wait to see how this EP does, and hopefully we'll get you in again sometime soon.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

All right, thanks so much.

[Bobby Bones]

All right. Her guitar is awesome, too.

[Eddie]

It's red.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Cool. Red.

[Amy]

They're very cute.

[Bobby Bones]

We're all compliments here today. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There she is. Elizabeth Nichols, everybody. Nice job.

[Elizabeth Nichols]

Thank y' all.

[Bobby Bones]

Bones. Let's do voicemails. Number one. Go. Maybe Eddie should not get a second free space on the Wheel of Punishment because the week before last, he also was not paying attention. So this is two weeks in a row now where he has not paid attention. Love the show. Bye. Appreciate the voicemail. What I would say to that is I think Eddie and Morgan get a half pass because they both have jobs they're doing during content. When we're talking, Morgan's sending message on social media or editing something, and Eddie's running cameras.

[Eddie]

I should do better, though.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah. There are times where I'm like, that's just bull crap. You should have paid attention. So you do get a half a coupon on that one. You can turn it in anytime. Redeemable only in the 48 continental United States. But you are just getting as of right now. You'll get the two wheel spots. We'll do them tomorrow, I think.

[Eddie]

Love it.

[Bobby Bones]

Or maybe the next day, but we'll spin the wheel. Let's go. Number two.

[Amy]

Hey, I have a Morning Corny for Amy.

[Bobby Bones]

Where do you take someone that's been.

[Amy]

Injured in a peekaboo accident?

[Bobby Bones]

The icu. Boom. That's a good one. All right, next up, this is Lois in Ohio in regards to the Karen Reed trial. If anybody watched Dateline over the weekend about the entire case, it was clear that she was framed. I agree with you. Completely innocent. Thanks. There you go. I did not watch that. I've seen a lot, and I. I'm kind of a little exhausted of it now. I did watch a clip of her taking her trash out, though. Do you guys see that?

[Amy]

Like a normal person?

[Bobby Bones]

You see that one? They're like, karen reads back to normal. And I was like, we're doing what? What am I not getting here? And literally, it was just her taking her trash out. That was. I thought I was missing something. Like, she was, like, committing a crime and, oh, she fooled us. Nope, Just taking her trash out. Here is Julie and Dallas.

[Amy]

Just gotta tell you, I disagree with Lunchbox on almost everything except his taste in tv. Shows, Calling from accounts, what we do in the shadows. All the shows he recommends are fantastic. Love y' all. Bye.

[Bobby Bones]

Lunchbox. I love for you there.

[Lunchbox]

Thank you. I do have good TV shows I.

[Bobby Bones]

Tell you about, and then. But a lot of times you tell people about them after one of us have watched them, and you review them, like, three months later going, you've never heard of the show. And we're like, literally, Eddie already reviewed that show.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, well, Calling from Accounts, I did bring to you. And what they do in the shadows. Hilarious. Yeah. But what's weird is Morgan, she doesn't think calling for accounts is funny.

[Bobby Bones]

It's definitely Australian humor.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, it is. She doesn't. I mean, I'm like, I don't know. It doesn't have to be Australia. That's just humor. That's awkward, uncomfortable, like the office humor.

[Bobby Bones]

Some people don't like awkward, uncomfortable humor.

[Lunchbox]

She's like, I tried to watch it, and it's just not good. And I'm like, oh, you have no sense of humor, Lunchbox.

[Eddie]

You realize people are different.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. And it's okay that they don't like the same things you like, and it doesn't make them less intelligent or less of a.

[Lunchbox]

Seriously, I don't know. If you don't like calling from accounts.

[Bobby Bones]

It'S really like you're just dying. Yeah. Yeah, I hear you. All right, One more mud next up. Hey. I've been thinking about it for a while, and I'm pretty sure the reason Amy takes up for Lunchbox so much is because she's worried about retaliation from some of his followers or something. Just my thoughts. Yeah, there's definitely that. And once I said that last week that I had heard from inside sources that Amy was told by corporate to stick up for Lunchbox, lots of listeners jumped in on that agreeing. Huh.

[Amy]

Are you really told by corporate?

[Bobby Bones]

Let's just. No, I was told that I can't reveal my sources.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Because if you're my source, I would never reveal you.

[Amy]

Thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

True or false?

[Amy]

True.

[Bobby Bones]

Boom. Race saw a hog hat Hog head in a what kind of store? I saw you tweet that. Or Instagram story that.

[I]

Yeah. So it was a consignment store, and apparently the hog head isn't for sale. But I hit the guy up, and I said, hey, if you were to put a price tag on it, what do you want for the razorback head? That was part of, like, you know, how the decorations for their little shop, they sold T shirts and hats and stuff. And he said he'd Sell it.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I thought he wouldn't sell it.

[I]

No, he'll sell it.

[Bobby Bones]

How much?

[I]

250 bucks.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[I]

And I just let him know, and he'll put it to the side, and I can snag it for you too.

[Bobby Bones]

How did my wife know I wanted that?

[I]

Because I posted it. I said, bones, do you want this razorback head?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, she replied to you.

[I]

And she just responded, no.

[Bobby Bones]

Got it.

[Eddie]

There you go.

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

All right.

[Eddie]

You gonna get it?

[Bobby Bones]

I guess the answer is no. Where am I gonna put it? I can't even put the mirrorball trophy in the house. That's gotta stay out of the studio.

[Eddie]

You can put it here. You can do anything here.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I kind of like this place to be universally tidy. All right, I think that's it. We have a lot to do today outside of the show. I have a lot to do today outside the show. So for today, that's it. Thanks to Elizabeth Nichols, who was on the show today. We've played that interview a few minutes ago. Otherwise, we're done. You guys all good?

[Ray]

Did you have something about a pool?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh. Oh, yeah. Dang. Well, sometimes I just think, good call, Morgan. Somebody pooped in the pool. Eddie. Eddie went to the Y. Oh, yeah.

[Eddie]

They didn't do it. Just once I get to the point.

[Bobby Bones]

Where I want to talk about poop for some reason, but I'm okay. You're right, Morgan. Good point. Because I did put that in the tease. Eddie, what happened at the pool?

[Eddie]

Well, we took the kids to the pool was the Y, and it was jam packed. Great summer day. Hot. So everyone's in the pool. Then the lifeguards blow the whistle. Everyone out. What's happened? Somebody pooped in the pool there with a net, like, trying to get it. It's terrible. And then so I'm like, all right, let's go. The pool's, like, closing, and my wife's like, oh, no, no. Usually they just get the poop out, and then you got to wait. They clean it, and then you go back in.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm like, what, have to drain it?

[Eddie]

No, they shock it with chemicals. And I'm like, they're going back in. So sure enough, after like, an hour, hour and a half, they go back in. Dude, it's not even like 30, 45 minutes later. Blow the whistle, more poop in the pool. I'm like, that's it.

[Bobby Bones]

Same kid.

[Eddie]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you get banned once? You poop once for the day? Like, you can't be in the.

[Amy]

Yeah, I mean, first round. I'm just. I'm calling it a day.

[Eddie]

That's what I'm saying.

[Amy]

Like.

[Eddie]

Like, if you tell me there's that in the pool, I don't want to go back in. I don't care if you threw chemicals in there.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, maybe they don't tell everybody. People get there during the shock. Yeah, we're just shocking the pool. Get cleaning the pool maybe.

[Eddie]

Dude. The worst is the net, though, when they're trying to.

[Bobby Bones]

Like right now, I don't even like that. That's why I didn't go to it. Like, I wasn't really feeling poop. A poop story. Right then some days I'm in more of a mood for it. Thank you, Morgan. All right, we're done. Thank you, guys. We'll see you tomorrow. Bye, everybody. American Military University is the number one provider of education to our military and veterans in the country.

Jo discussing who can benefit from therapy.

[J]

I think a lot of people think that you're supposed to be going to therapy once you're like having panic attacks every day. But before you get to that point, I think once you start even noticing that you feel a little bit off and you can't maintain this harmony that you once had in relationships, that could be a sign that maybe you want to go talk to somebody. There's always a benefit in talking to someone because we can all benefit from improved insight about ourselves and who we are and how we behave with other people. So if you're human that's like a good indicator that you could benefit from talking to somebody.
