We're back for a second voyage with the Top Shelf Country Cruise. Enjoy seven days of entertainment including live performances from Riley Greene, Chris Young, Lauren Elena, Randy Houser plus catch performances by Jackson Dean and Travis Denning. The Ultimate Country Music Experience at sea sets sail March 2027 on the Celebrity Summit departing from Tampa with stops in Key West, Ben Bimini and Cozumel. Open booking is finally here for Top Shelf Country Cruise, so go to topshelfcountrycruise.com now to book your cabin. Owning a home comes with a lot of things nobody really prepares you for, including yard care. Sunday is a company trying to make that part easier. They start with a soil test and climate data to build a yard plan tailored to where you live, then ship everything directly to your door. No guesswork, no dragging bags of fertilizer, and instead of harsh chemicals, Sundae uses simple nutrient dense ingredients like seaweed, molasses and iron. Everything hooks up to a hose, which honestly sounds like my speed. If your yard feels more stressful than satisfying, Sunday's approach makes a lot of sense. Go to getsunday.com to get your free custom yard analysis. That's getsunday.com it's time for the good news. Tell me something good. The weather was nice enough yesterday evening. We took the baby for a walk. So sometimes it's too hot, sometimes it rains. It's good. So we went and we started with the stroller and then she really liked laying down in it and she's grown a ton. We do the thing where we take a picture of her next to the same exact little doll. It's a little rabbit or something. So when she was born, we laid her on the bed, took it, and every month, the same day we take it. She could eat that thing now.

[C]

So was the rabbit bigger than her?

[B]

At one point it was the same size as her.

[C]

Okay.

[B]

Now she swallows it.

[C]

Wow.

[B]

Yeah, she's way bigger than it. Yep. So she really like laying in that stroller anymore because we had, like a bassinet on top. And so we switched it out yesterday, too. They have a thing you could just clap the car seat in.

[A]

Oh, okay.

[B]

Familiar with that?

[C]

Yeah. Oh, yeah, for sure.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

I was very helpful.

[B]

So there's like a adapter that we had. Luckily, I saved luckily, because usually when there's extra parts and stuff, I just thought out, I'm like, I'm never going to need this extra part. And then inevitably, three months later, I do. Luckily we had the parts and we were able to snap the car seat on top. And she likes it in the car seat. So we went on a walk. Then she wasn't feeling it anymore, being trapped in. So we took the carrier as well. And so I put her in the pouch and we walked. And so we did. I don't know, a few miles, but. But I was walking in mules. Familiar.

[A]

Like slides.

[B]

They're slides, but they're real shoes, so they would be slides. But mules are real shoes. You've seen me wear them before. But yes, you can. Real shoe slide make sense?

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

They were killing my feet because I wasn't wearing any socks. And so I was like, I'm just going to walk barefoot and I am Mr. Delicate when it comes to my feet. But the mules were killing. They were tearing the skin off the top of my feet. So I had to pick sacrifice the bottom of my feet or the top of my feet.

[C]

Were you walking on a road?

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

That's tough.

[B]

And we were already halfway. We couldn't just go back to the car. We had to walk back. So I. Now the bottom of my feet are killing me today because they're all torn up. And I was. Then I was walking in people's yards because I had the baby on me. And I'm walking people's front yards on the side of the road. And now I got checker bites on my ankles.

[A]

Oh, gosh.

[E]

Oh, man.

[B]

But the good news is that we went on a good walk.

[C]

The weather was nice.

[B]

Yes. So that was good. But, man, I made some bad decisions yesterday and it Was all me and my wife's like, are your feet not killing you? I was like, I'm not complaining. I made this decision. I wore the mules.

[A]

Right. Because you were thinking, I'm going to go on a walk. I'm going to wear the mules.

[B]

I'm going to go on a short walk.

[A]

Yeah, these will be fine.

[B]

We're going to do it in the stroller. It's just different when you got 12, 13 pounds on your. On your stomach. And I didn't think we'd walk as far. And we got out there, and I wasn't complaining. And my wife's like, you have very delicate feet. Like, why are you doing this? I was like, because it's either tear the top of them or tear the bottom of them. So it sucks. But I'm good. We had a good walk. That's it there anything else? I think that's it. Had a nice dinner, ordered in. Haven't done that in a while. Ordered Uber Eats. Order this thing from this place called Postino. I don't even know where it is. Do you ever order food from someone you drive by and you're kind of let down by what it looks like? You've never actually seen it, because that's happened to me. Like, I have this place I love ordering from, and in my mind, it is a special place out. The outside is special. It's probably hard to get into. And then I drove by it the other day. I saw it for the first time. It was, like, beat up in a strip center. And I was like, oh, no, that's killed.

[A]

Oh, no. Strip center food is.

[B]

I hear you. But not good, though.

[C]

That's funny, though.

[B]

That's like. That's like a dive bar. Like, most aren't good, but if there's one good one, it, like, sets the precedent for all dive bars. Yeah, but I was very disappointed. Not Postino. I don't know what that place looks like.

[C]

It's like, you finally met your online date.

[B]

That's it.

[C]

And you're like, whoa.

[B]

Because the pictures on Uber Eats look great even inside the restaurant. And then I saw it, and I was let down. It's kind of affected that I don't order from that place anymore.

[A]

Really?

[B]

Yeah. Unfair.

[C]

What is it, Italian?

[D]

Well, it's super cute, so you're good on that one. It has a cute inside, cute patio.

[A]

So what do you get from there?

[B]

Oh, I even know where that is.

[D]

It's in 12 South.

[B]

Thank you for asking. I'm happy to share that with you. What I like is they send some of their stuff in boxes, like, long boxes for delivery. Because I order these. It's not a meal. It's like a little spread, and. And it is like a hummus with vegetables. There's a lot of cucumbers. I love the little pickles, and that's in there. There's pita, and then I. Two beef skewers.

[C]

Sounds good.

[B]

It's really good. They do a great job. I'm not sure what it's like to eat in there. They did not pay me. I don't even know if that's a. A place in other cities.

[C]

That sounds like a franchise Mediterranean.

[B]

It is.

[C]

Yeah. You know what it is?

[B]

What the crap?

[C]

And I'm foodie, dude. Come on, man. I know that stuff.

[B]

That's crazy. That sounds Mediterranean to you? To me, it sounds like the post office.

[C]

What, like the pita bread and the hummus and the vegetables.

[B]

Oh, I thought you meant the name of the place.

[C]

No, I'm talking about the food that you just mentioned.

[A]

Yeah, the food. Yeah.

[B]

Got it. I thought.

[C]

But from the name, I thought it was Italian.

[E]

So did I.

[C]

You know, but. So that's surprising.

[B]

Yeah. I thought it was usps. Buy some stamps. Yeah. But I had a pretty good dinner. I've been doing great about not ordering as much.

[C]

Why? What's up?

[B]

Hard times.

[C]

Oh, you good, man.

[B]

I also feel like I don't really know what's in that food, even though they're saying. And I have, you know, a dairy allergy. I have other. Who knows how much sugar they're putting in stuff. I just. Since I hurt my ankle and I'm back 90%, and since I've had a baby, I've not been able to be as active, so I just got to watch it, or I just put on weight like crazy. So most of the time is food at home, because we know what's in it. But I did order last night. It was good.

[C]

All right.

[B]

What's up with you?

[A]

Last night, I went to the Opry, and I saw George Burge, which was awesome. That was kind of fun. And his wife, they just celebrated 14 years of marriage.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

That's crazy.

[B]

They've been married that long.

[A]

They seem so young.

[B]

They've been married forever, since a long time. But I knew they met in college.

[C]

Oh, right, right, right, right. That's what I mean.

[A]

Yeah. And his little boys were there with, like, little cowboy hats and belt buckles and boots. Like, it was just so cute. But also, I didn't get to Stay long enough to see him perform. Just caught up with him a little bit in his dressing room, but did see Wyatt McCubbin play, and he. I didn't know he wrote Lainey Wilson's Whiskey Colored Crown, which Laney's come on before and was talking about that song and how powerful it is, like, the teacher, like, to set a story of the song they're coloring in class at school.

[B]

Oh, crayon.

[A]

I know.

[B]

I was like, why would a crown be whiskey colored?

[C]

Right?

[A]

Crayon.

[C]

I thought it was like, crown Royal.

[B]

I was like, where's the Jesus reference in whiskey? Crayon.

[A]

Say it again. Crayon.

[B]

Crayon.

[A]

So crayon. The teacher.

[B]

It's not hard to say it. It's not hard to say it, but it's not hard to say.

[E]

Crayon. Crayon.

[A]

It is how I say it. Crayon.

[B]

Okay, now you're just doing a bit. You're doing a bit. You're doing a bit.

[A]

Lunchbox can't say ambulance.

[B]

Yeah, he can, but he just doesn't want to.

[A]

Okay, I want to say crayon properly.

[B]

You're not even saying it properly. Why are you saying it's two syllables?

[A]

Crayon.

[B]

No.

[C]

Oh, my gosh.

[B]

On. Like.

[A]

You're on crayon.

[B]

No. What?

[A]

Crayon. Crayon.

[B]

Are you Creole? Crayon.

[A]

Okay, whatever.

[B]

On. Say on. Like, I'm on a boat.

[A]

I'm on a boat.

[B]

Crayon.

[A]

Crayon.

[B]

Crayon.

[E]

A boat.

[A]

Crayon. A boat.

[B]

Crayon.

[A]

Crayon.

[B]

That's it.

[A]

Okay. Crayon.

[B]

No, she keeps going back to crayon. It's like the scene in Friends where Joey's like,

[A]

not a bit. I swear. I've always struggled with it. That and poem. Poem. Y' all say poem is fine.

[B]

That's more of an accent. No one's crowned yolk or crayon, but you say yolk. That's it. No one says yolk.

[A]

I get called out for not saying yolk.

[B]

No, you don't.

[A]

Or maybe I say yolk, and it's yolk.

[B]

Regardless, you saw some dude

[A]

and it was really good. He's been Wyatt McCubbin. He's been a songwriter. He's written tons of songs for people in town for years. This is his first time performing at the Opry. So that's just a special moment in itself, seeing someone who's had a lifelong dream of being on the Opry stage. Because now he's making the transition to artist and being the Performer instead of the songwriter.

[B]

What's his name again?

[A]

Wyatt McCubbin. No, is it McCubbin?

[B]

It's McCubbin.

[A]

Okay. That's what I said. McCubbin.

[B]

I think.

[A]

No, no. B.B. mcCubbin.

[B]

Maybe it's all in my ears.

[C]

No.

[B]

Because I'm starting to feel like maybe it's me. Like, she's just.

[A]

I know it's B.B.

[B]

yeah. Wyatt McCubbin.

[A]

Because I. I found him on Instagram. Macub. Mcubub.

[B]

Could be McCuben, but I. Oh, no.

[E]

But I think McCubbin. Like McLovin.

[B]

Me too.

[A]

Okay, guys, I'm gonna really enunciate for you.

[B]

Cause we all say weird things from the plot. There's a difference in us just saying things wrong and really committing to being extremely wrong. Okay, you have committed to saying wrong.

[A]

I have no commitment. I don't care. I want to say it properly so we just. Y' all know what I'm talking about. So you can understand.

[B]

You're a smart, physically able person. You can say crayon.

[A]

Crayon.

[B]

Okay. You're stupid. You're not. You're stupid. You're stupid. You're stupid right now.

[A]

No.

[B]

There's no reason for you to be speaking French like Pepe Le Pew.

[A]

Okay?

[C]

Yeah. It's not like a different language.

[A]

Yeah, but I've been working with you for 20 years.

[B]

I know.

[A]

And you just haven't always been a word.

[B]

You haven't committed. Go do it again.

[A]

Say the word crown. That's how I want to say 7 out of 10. Crown. Did it get worse?

[B]

You can say it. Crayon.

[A]

Crayon.

[B]

That's it.

[A]

Hey, I mimicked you. Crayon.

[C]

Okay, what's the name of the song now?

[A]

Whiskey Colored Crayon.

[C]

She did it.

[B]

Yeah. A little too hard. Emphasis on the on. But I'm gonna go with it and say that's a good job.

[A]

Thank you.

[B]

Whiskey Colored Crayon.

[A]

So picture it. A little kid is at school.

[B]

Oh, we're doing the song now.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

Okay. Okay.

[A]

They're like, looking. They. They're supposed to color stuff at home, you know, like, colored the house and the car and the green tree and the red house, you know? And then she asked the teacher because she's going to draw her dad, do you have a whiskey colored crayon?

[B]

No, that's not even how it goes.

[A]

Crayon.

[B]

No, she didn't. The teacher didn't ask the kids.

[A]

That's what I just said. The kids asks for. For it.

[C]

She said the kid asked I.

[A]

Thank you.

[B]

Okay.

[C]

But the kid's a girl, though, right? Because you said she.

[B]

I don't know.

[A]

Sure.

[B]

I've been twisted all over during this segment.

[A]

It's not that hard to follow.

[C]

Because dad. Dad drinks a lot of whiskey.

[A]

Because dad drinks a lot of whiskey.

[B]

And then maybe I just assumed the teacher was a woman. She said she, and I'm sexist. And that's on me. That's on me.

[A]

Okay. No, the kid asks for an alcohol colored crayon writing thing, and then the dad. The. The teacher calls. I don't. I don't know.

[B]

He was good at the Opery.

[A]

He was great at the Oper. But listen, in the song, the dad, bec is seven years sober after that drawing of the picture.

[C]

It says that in the song?

[A]

Yeah, unless I dreamt that part. But I just thought, oh, man, what a beautiful song that he was a part of writing. And I remember when Lainey Wilson was talking about it, but I didn't know he was one of the writers. And then to be there to witness somebody's debut, it was just like I thought it was to tell me something good of like, chase your dreams. Because he said ever since he was a kid, this is what he's wanted to do. And he. His dream came True. Wyatt McCubbin.

[B]

Good. I like it. I think it's great.

[A]

Yeah. Chase your dreams.

[B]

What do you expect of us?

[A]

I don't know.

[B]

You expect us just to walk along with you and root you on?

[A]

Well, I just thought we could have gotten to the point a lot faster.

[B]

That's how we deal with all your stories.

[C]

Was it. Wait.

[A]

Well, no, it's not. Wait now, because. Why am I talking is. Because it's my turn to talk. Yeah.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

It's my story to tell. It's just derailed by my inability to say crown the way y' all want me to say it.

[B]

And it's derailed at my inability to just let her tell the story.

[E]

Huh.

[A]

Right.

[B]

But.

[E]

So the story was this. He was just good at the Opry.

[B]

So if we were to start over again, how would you, like, make this more concise?

[A]

Okay.

[B]

And, Amy, you're up. Go.

[A]

Well, if it sucks is.

[B]

No, no, no, no.

[C]

Start like a never ending.

[B]

Like, none of this is recorded. All right, that's. Hold on. And the weather was great. My feet hurt. All right, Amy, over to you.

[A]

Okay, so I have a story about chasing your dreams and not giving up on them, and also the power of music, because I went to the Opry last night and witnessed A singer, songwriter, perform at the Opry for the first time. And he set aside his dreams of being a performer to be a songwriter for a long time. And now he's getting to chase the other side of that dream, which is being the performer. And I didn't realize he was a songwriter. On a really powerful song from Lainey Wilson called Whiskey Colored Crown.

[B]

Yeah, go say more.

[A]

And. And the song, like, the power of music is, is that, you know, if someone has an experience in their life with alcoholism or addiction, like, it's a really powerful song of healing and sobriety and redemption and like a kid sharing and then from the kid opening up about the color of crown they need for their dad, which is whiskey. The dad is like, what? That's the color you associate with me. Like, I want to get sober.

[B]

Dang.

[A]

And so that's a good story.

[B]

You never mentioned the artist, though. Do you want to mention who the artist was?

[A]

Yeah, I'd love to. Wyatt McCoven. He's great. You should check out his music. He's going to be releasing more.

[B]

All seriousness, was he a good singer?

[A]

He really was. And then his wife was singing his harmonies and backup, which was, I thought, really cool for them to be on stage. And his whole family was there, her whole family was there. His kids were there. It's just.

[C]

That's cool.

[A]

He's from Ohio, I think, because he asked the crowd, anybody here in the crowd from Ohio? And so I figured that's why he asked that. Just putting two and two together because

[E]

I. I think I got it.

[A]

Why am I talking?

[C]

Yeah, we got the story.

[B]

We just said, why am I talking? She hit herself with a weight.

[C]

We just.

Why did you go to the Opry? And just in general, I went because

[A]

your friend Chase, you know Marty Stewart.

[C]

Yeah, we know Marty Stewart.

[A]

Kind of question is that cool? Because he. So he introduced him, brought him on stage because he'd been riding with him for a long time. And then he played guitar on one of the songs during the performance. And so he was out there. I thought that was.

[E]

So that's why you waited.

[B]

Why did you go like, what was the reason you went to the Opry?

[A]

Well, my friend Chase was in town and he invited me.

[B]

But why did he want to go?

[A]

He wanted to go to support Kelly Sutton who was hosting the Opry and she.

[B]

Which we talked about yesterday.

[A]

Which we talked about yesterday. And I hadn't seen Kelly in a while, so I thought we'll all go with you to support. And so that's what we did. That was it. And it was all around Feel good.

[B]

I like it. You didn't say the whole night.

[A]

No, I.

[B]

You know, it runs late.

[A]

It does.

[C]

So did you go backstage?

[A]

We did.

[B]

She said that. I don't know if we're doing the bit still where she started over. If we're still doing the bit where we started over. She did say she went saw George.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

Yeah. Because Kelly just put Chase's name down and then mine because I was his guest and she did a great job. Like, it was just. I don't know.

[B]

You got a cool shirt today.

[A]

Oh, thank you. I just bought this this last weekend. I told you. We were walking around downtown Franklin with my son. That was, I think, my. Tell me something good on Monday.

[B]

It's good.

[A]

Was just going to get ice cream and shopping, and I found this shirt.

[B]

As soon as you walked in, I was like, dang, that's a cool shirt. I should tell Amy. Tell me something good.

[A]

Really?

[B]

It's just like a button up. Like a square, short sleeve button up.

[A]

Yeah. I kept the tag on it for a couple of days because I wasn't quite sure, and then this morning ripped the tag off. Let's go.

[B]

Yeah, that's good. Okay, Eddie, tell me something good.

[C]

Okay, so this one kind of goes to Amy a little bit, because a while back I was talking about how, like, I'm trying to get my kids to do the dishes around the house, and it's just chaotic. Like, they never know when it's clean. They never know when it's dirty. And so, like, say I run it and they just put dirty dishes in clean dishes. So Amy was like, hey, why don't you buy one of those magnets or whatever that goes. Remember this on the door of the dishwasher that says clean and dirty. And so I've been trying to tell my wife, like, Amy told me this idea. We should do this and try it. Finally, she ordered it. It came in yesterday. So this is kind of a future. Tell me something good. We haven't really used it yet. Although I did the dishes last night and I put clean on it. So we'll see how it goes. But I think we're on the right track, too.

[A]

Definitely going to help with clarity.

[B]

Yeah. Except we did a similar thing with feeding the dogs, and we would just forget. So sometimes dogs get double fed because we forgot.

[C]

You forget to flip it?

[B]

Yeah. So you just got to remember, like, one person needs to be in control of it. Because my wife and I would feed flip, and I'd be like, oh, she had Mustang. I flipped it Yes. I flip it. Dog get fed twice. Never even told us.

[C]

He'd be like, okay, well, the idea that I had was whoever unloads the dishwasher has to, like, flip.

[A]

Flip it to dirty, right?

[C]

So. And that's gonna be a kid.

[B]

Like, if you unload it, it's empty.

[A]

It's empty. But you need to put on dirty because everything going in there, everything in there is gonna be dirty, dirty. That's when you flip it.

[B]

It ain't gonna work. I like the idea. It's gonna work with all the kids. Somebody's gotta be in control of it. One solo person. You're giving six people, but they're all old enough. Like, that's it. They should just look at the dish, do a lick test, Lick it.

[E]

Yeah, it's a good idea.

[C]

Such a struggle. And honestly, I was struggling to find a Tommy something good because it's been tough.

[B]

I hope it works. I shouldn't just pee on it. We've just tried it and just with Caitlin and I, because we both had the authority to move the dog. Yeah. If only one of us had done it, I think it would have helped. So I guess the lesson is make one person in charge of that, of doing the flipping. Yep. It's like their job. Because everybody's gonna be flipping it.

[C]

Because I'm trying to have everyone have a day where they unload it. Right. Like, because. Because the problem is unloading it too. Right. Like, everyone's like, ah, no problem. I'll load the dishwasher. But somebody has to unload it. So I'm thinking, like, you know, for example, Amy unloads Monday, lunchbox unloads Tuesday. I'm Wednesday, you're Thursday.

[B]

We're familiar with how that works, Right.

[E]

So that's what every day means.

[C]

That's what I'm trying to do. But I don't know if anyone will remember.

[B]

You didn't have anything better than that, like, in your day. I'm not even hating.

[A]

I almost went with that. I got a new toothbrush, and I'm starting to wish I would have that. You have to say, sometimes we just have to look for it.

[B]

Yeah. But the starting to wish I wouldn't have.

[A]

No, starting to wish I would have. If I would have said, hey, guys, I got a new toothbrush and it's fantastic. We would have moved on. But I'm not, like, for my speaking.

[E]

No, no, no.

[B]

Not attacked. You can do it.

[E]

Yeah, yeah.

[A]

But it takes a lot of brain power to do it. So what?

[C]

Like, it's not your speaking. Do you understand that when you said this song, though, that we were like a crown and whiskey?

[B]

Yeah. It confused us and it set us all back. Because I'm like a whiskey color crown. Started to think there was a song about Jesus drinking whiskey. And I was like, that's not right.

[C]

Right. And I went to Crown Royal, which is another whiskey. And I'm like, I don't understand the song.

[B]

So that's the whole reason. It wasn't that you didn't say it right. It was that we didn't understand what you were saying. If you said, I got a box of crowns and started coloring, we'd probably not stopped you.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

Because we would have known what you meant.

[C]

We would have put it together.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Okay, I. I understand now.

[B]

Anything else in your day? Just like.

[C]

No. It is so bad. My, my. It was so bad, my son.

[A]

So bad.

[C]

It was so bad. One of my boys had a fit last night that almost went into midnight. Like, it was so bad. And then before that, my youngest son, they were in the playoffs, semifinals. They lost to a team that they should not have lost to. And so it was just that kind of that day.

[B]

How'd he play?

[C]

He played great.

[B]

That's a good. Yeah, that's a good.

[C]

He played great. And you know what? He cried when the game was over. He doesn't cry.

[A]

He's gonna love that. You put him on blast like that.

[B]

That's not on blast. That's losing and learning.

[C]

He doesn't listen to this.

[B]

You don't even know which son Eddie's got. 19 of them.

[A]

Okay, four. Yeah.

[B]

I don't know.

[A]

It's like a grim line.

[B]

Every time I go to his house, it's a new son.

[A]

I'll come home and he'll be like, mom, did you say on the Bobby Bone show that I cried? And I'll be like, I think it's

[C]

okay, though, when kids cry.

[A]

I do, too, but they don't. When he hears from his friends at school, you cry. Yeah, I'm just.

[B]

Well, if any of Eddie's kids. Friends are listening. It's okay to cry over a ball game.

[C]

There we go.

[B]

Because. Means it mattered. Yeah.

[C]

Means you care about it.

[A]

Yeah, I think. Yeah. Express your feelings.

[B]

Lunchbox. Tell me something good.

[E]

Yeah. Last night around 7 o', clock, I got to sit down on the couch, turn on the tv, and I got to watch the spurs game from start to finish because they've been playing at 8:30, ending at midnight. So you have to not watch the end because you're so freaking tired. But they played early last night. They played. They won by a lot.

[C]

Yeah.

[E]

And they're up three games of two. It was a great night. Felt so good. And I got my boys to sit and watch them with me and they started cheering for the Spurs. So it was really fun.

[B]

Great.

[C]

Are they spurs fans?

[E]

Yeah. I mean, I love that they, they whatever I cheer for, they cheer for their lives. Like, dad, who you cheering for? And I'm like, the Spurs. Like, all right, go Spurs. Then we'd high five every time they score a basket and my four year old goes, are we going to do this every time they score?

[B]

Like me, like something I'd say every time. Morgan, you want to do one?

[D]

Yeah. But mine's honestly kind of like Eddie. It. Tell me something suck. I had a bad start to the morning.

[B]

Well, that's not. Tell me something good.

[A]

It started as a.

[D]

Tell me something good. I was trying to save a bird that I saw that was sitting in the middle of the road and it was not moving. You know when you like, fly by and a bird's supposed to move and it flies away? Well, it didn't. And so I got out of the car to check on it. I was like, okay, it's not moving. So I kind of like maneuvered it to the side of the road and I was like, oh, you'll be fine. And I was like, cool. I saved a bird today that was gonna be fun and awesome. And as I was leaving for work, it was no longer alive.

[B]

Oh, you tried, though. It was gonna die anyway.

[D]

I know, but like, I felt like

[B]

I could have done nothing. You could have done mouth to mouth on it. What are you gonna do? Nothing. Maybe Price hit already hit by a car.

[C]

At least you stopped.

[B]

Yeah, you did stop. Hey, tell me something good. You're a good person when it comes to animals.

[D]

I. I tried, but I. I've been. Once I saw it died, I was crying in my car on the way to work. So then it just made me sad.

[B]

Dang.

[C]

Your friends are gonna make fun of you now because you said that.

[A]

Oh, she. She's in charge of her saying she cried. It's when they hear at school from their friends that they cry. 10, 12, 13.

[B]

Good point, good point, good point. All right, there you go. That's what it's all about. It's time for the good news with Bobby. After being abandoned outside of Walmart and California, a German shepherd has found a new home with a foster to adopt family. A video posted showed the dog tied up near the store and just tied up with a box of toys. He waited for three days before animal control arrived. The pup named Maverick was hungry. They took him to the shelter, went a little viral. He was almost euthanized. And now, because the video kept going more and more viral, this family in Washington came down and adopted him.

[C]

So, well, social media doing some good.

[B]

I don't like when they tie animals up. You're bad. You're a bad person.

[A]

My dog was tied up for a year.

[C]

You tied it up for a year?

[A]

No, Whoa.

[B]

Every this left it for a year.

[A]

Tied up about a year because Kathy, who we work with, she rescues dogs and she has horses and the guy that works on her horseshoes, on her horses, he came to her and said, hey, my cousin has this dog tied up. It's been outside tied up for almost a year, it seems. So she's like, take me to the house. And she went. And they knocked on the door and she was like, I'm taking the dog. And they were kind of like, okay, you're right. Yeah, it's not fair. They, I think they planned on breeding her eventually. She's a labradoodle. And they were waiting for her to get old enough or whatever, but the rope was so matted. The rope was like matted into her skin and they had to shave her. It was terrible. So, yeah, no tying up dogs.

[B]

You know what? This one's about you now tell me something good, Amy.

[A]

Sorry.

[B]

No, no, no.

[A]

Just about anybody that, like, shout out to Kathy and then this, these people for rescuing the dog.

[B]

Shout out to Amy. Shout out to Amy, who is the hero, But she's a jolly. She looks like a fellow. Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody can deny

[A]

[B]

You got it.

[E]

You did it.

[B]

All right. That's from News Nation. Now that is what it's all about. It's time for the good news with lunchbox.

[E]

7 year old Samir Santana's chopping it up at snack time with his friends in school, laughing, joking, when all of a sudden his friend starts choking. Samir's like, hey, man, last year in school I learned the Heimlich. So he jumps out of his chair, runs over, starts giving a little.

[A]

Oh my gosh, these noises.

[E]

This is what happens, Amy, in a life or death situation.

[B]

This is real life. Okay. Yeah, it's not comfortable. But you know what? He wasn't comfortable either.

[E]

Yeah, I'm not, I'm not comfortable hearing a seven year old choke.

[B]

It hurts him to do that noise. Imagine if you're the kid.

[A]

Yeah, I was worried about him.

[E]

Yeah, you were worried about him. But Sam was worried, too. And he saved the kid's life.

[B]

Yep.

[E]
