Amy Brown (3:09)

Bobby Bones.

Bobby Bones (3:12)

Amy says she can play her podcast, We Not Go to Jail.

Cat (3:15)

Oh, the theme permission.

Bobby Bones (3:16)

Yeah. Today is her last episode of four Things with Amy Brown. Next week, it turns over to hold on. Remember the Feeling Things with Amy? Yeah, but I didn't think that that was that.

Cat (3:31)

You don't like how I did that?

Bobby Bones (3:33)

No, I do. I like the name of the title. But you acted like it was super clever.

Cat (3:38)

Well, that's how I got there.

Bobby Bones (3:39)

I like the title.

Cat (3:39)

I'm telling you how I got there.

Bobby Bones (3:40)

No, no, I like the title of it and I think it's clever of the title. But you were like, see how feeling things and for things are almost the same words.

Cat (3:48)

But if I wasn't chasing the F things, I don't know that I would have come up with Feeling Things.

Bobby Bones (3:53)

Yeah, our brains are different. But Amy. Amy had sent me a file and I mentioned yesterday, she sent a file, and with the file there was no text, so there was no context. So I'm not clicking something that's just an empty file. I never heard it. And what it was is the theme song to her podcast, which launches next week on the same feed called Feeling Things, which almost was called Effing Things.

Ray (4:17)

Sounds like another F. Yeah.

Cat (4:19)

Feeling Things with Amy and Cat.

Bobby Bones (4:21)

I think the other one would be a hit, though. Effing things. The other one, Sure. I think that would get hit a lot.

Cat (4:26)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (4:27)

Okay. Ray, would you play the Walker Hayes Sung themed Amy's new podcast, 1, 2, 3? If you ever have feelings and you just want some, maybe a cat got you covered like a number. Ladies and fellas, we just follow in the spirit where it's on us. From the real stuff to the chill stuff and the in between, sometimes the best thing you can do is just stop and feel things.

Walker Hayes (4:57)

This is Feeling Things with Amy and Cat.

Bobby Bones (5:00)

That's good.

Ray (5:01)

That's really good.

Cat (5:02)

So good.

Bobby Bones (5:02)

Now, did he give you in writing that you could play that and not get sued?

Cat (5:07)

I have Better than writing. I have.

Bobby Bones (5:09)

What's better than Writing. He's here to tell us himself.

Cat (5:12)

No, he sent me an audio voice text.

Bobby Bones (5:15)

You have that?

Cat (5:16)

I do.

Bobby Bones (5:17)

Is it. Does Ray have that? Okay, Raymondo, if you don't mind playing that.

Walker Hayes (5:21)

Yo, Amy. Hey, it's Walker. Just sending you this official formal text message to let you know you have permission to use the jingle. The feel things jingle in perpetuity. No idea what that. That word means. And honestly, this is the third time I've done this message because I said the wrong. The said the word wrong. I said perpetuity. And so, yeah, you have my perpetuity. And also, Amy, you're. You are a. You are a actual co writer on the song, because at the end, it was like it was needing something, and you said, hey, just say this is feeling things with Amy and Kat. And I mean, I don't know.

Bobby Bones (6:05)

That's.

Walker Hayes (6:05)

I mean, that's. I don't know if the song would have been as big of a hit without that sentence. So thanks for. Thanks for drop. Thanks for spitting bars.

Cat (6:15)

Boom. I'm a co writer, and we have permission to use in perpetuity.

Bobby Bones (6:20)

I'd like to say a couple things. First of all, there's something called a word for a third, which is what a lot of people do in town. It's a really. Some would say unethical way to be. I'm not saying you did this to be added as a writer on a song. Let's say that Lunchbox is a wildly successful singer. He's had a bunch of hits, and people are pitching him songs, and he's like, I like this one, but I want to be known as a writer on it. So he inserts the. With Lunchbox. Now he's a third. He owns a third of the writing. Or he's telling them, I'm not gonna cut it un. You give me that. It feels like you were for a third of them, except you didn't mean to. And secondly, you're not making any money off that because it's not loaded on any of the streaming. Well, no, no, not exactly.

Ray (7:01)

You're kind of making money on it.

Bobby Bones (7:02)

No, no, no.

Cat (7:03)

I just thought it would help with the perpetuity.

Bobby Bones (7:04)

Everybody take a breath. Everybody with me? Yes. Thank you. I'm gonna get to a place here.

Cat (7:09)

Okay, take us.

Bobby Bones (7:10)

Also, the fact that he says, I don't know what perpetuity means. That would never, ever in court work if he was like, I'm not getting paid. We're like, well, you said in perpetuity. And then you go, yeah, but also, Said, I didn't know what that meant.

Cat (7:21)

Oh, no. But I have actual. Then I have texts back and forth because I. I googled perpetuity and copied it and sent it to him. And then he was like, oh. And I. And I said, walker, I feel like with what you do, like, this is a word you need to know. Like. So he's like, I'm gonna start using that. He's like, I'm about to go into a meeting, and I'm gonna drop perpetuity in the meeting. And I was like, keep me posted how it goes. And I was like, and also work it into your next song.

Bobby Bones (7:44)

It's just you and me forever. Perpetuity.

Ray (7:47)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (7:47)

That rolls off well. It does.

Cat (7:49)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (7:50)

And it. That's what I would do. That's how I do it. I'd be like, it's just you and me forever. Perpetuity. Whatever. Add something like that. Walker, take that buddy word for third. Put that in your next song.

Ray (8:02)

So does Amy need another voicemail voice memo that says, I know what perpetuity is? No.

Cat (8:06)

Because I have texts where I send him the definition, and he acknowledges. Oh. And then I said, I think he thought I just typed that up out of nowhere. And I was like, just so you know, I copied and pasted that. He goes, oh, thank God. I was like, either that or she's. She was a business major.

Bobby Bones (8:20)

Like, no, Perpetuity is just a word they use to mean forever.

Cat (8:24)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (8:24)

Oh, really? Or until otherwise canceled. I have a lot of. In negotiations. That's one of the things I fight. Fight's not the word. One of the things that is often a spot of contention is what is held in perpetuity or not.

Cat (8:43)

Sounds legit.

Ray (8:44)

It does.

Bobby Bones (8:45)

Yeah. It's a pretty cool word.

Cat (8:46)

I know.

Ray (8:47)

Like, marriage is perpetuity.

Bobby Bones (8:48)

Not really. It didn't have to be until it's supposed to be.

Ray (8:52)

Yeah. It's like you agree on something until you don't.

Bobby Bones (8:54)

It's something that lasts until it doesn't. Indefinitely. Forever. It's supposed to be. That's the word. That's cool, though. Good job. Theme songs are cool. You get a good one. That was a good one. You should put it on. Honestly, you should. Maybe not under his name because he doesn't want to ruin his Spotify I Heart Apple music streams. But you could put that up.

Cat (9:16)

How?

Bobby Bones (9:17)

Well, that's a whole different thing.

Cat (9:19)

Put it up in perpetuity.

Bobby Bones (9:20)

No, no. Put it up on, like, a dsp.

Cat (9:24)

The dsp. Okay.

Bobby Bones (9:25)

What do you think that is?

Cat (9:26)

I love the dsp. It's my favorite. The digital sound platform.

Bobby Bones (9:31)

Close. Service. Yeah, yeah.

Cat (9:32)

Digital service platform provider.

Bobby Bones (9:34)

Sure.

Cat (9:35)

Provider.

Ray (9:35)

Good job.

Bobby Bones (9:36)

That was close. Any of those. You could put it up as you don't have to, but then when people listen to it, then you would actually get paid as a co writer. He'd have to do it too. You don't have.

Cat (9:48)

That'd be a whole thing.

Bobby Bones (9:49)

But we have like, for example, Reed's thing. Well, Brandon Ray did the 25 whistles song and I wrote it, but he did all the music and did all the singing and sounds. Hit that one. This is a podcast called 25 Whistles. Talking football. And they all wear a whistle. Yeah. It's stupid, but what did you expect? It's a podcast called 25 Whistles. 25 Whistles. So then redid the one for my NFL show with Matt Castle. It's called Lots to say. We got lots to say. We got lots to say? We're glad you're here and we hope you stay. Cause we got lots to say. Yeah, we got lots to say. Now here's Bobby and that. What I wanted to do is play that, cuz you stole that. Here's Bobby and Matt. You stole that. And I'm going to be suing her.

Cat (10:55)

Oh, I didn't know.

Bobby Bones (10:56)

I'm taking you to court because when you. Here's Amy and Cat sounds a lot like Bobby and Matt.

Ray (11:00)

A lot like it.

Bobby Bones (11:01)

And if.

Cat (11:02)

Uhhuh.

Bobby Bones (11:04)

Robin Thick can lose millions of dollars to Blurred Blurred lines, then we're looking at a little situation here.

Cat (11:11)

Well, so if you go back to Four Things with Amy Brown, Walker did that song for me too. And he did it. And that's how I got the idea. Because at the end of that song, he goes, this is four Things with Amy Brown. So I just had him go, this.

Bobby Bones (11:24)

Is feeling like Bobby and Matt.

Ray (11:26)

Yeah.

Cat (11:26)

Because now I have a. Now I have my attorney on the phone full time.

Bobby Bones (11:30)

Hello, Mr. Attorney. Yeah, yeah. Sewer for everything. Everything.

Cat (11:34)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (11:34)

Sell, sell, sell, buy, sell. Oh, that stocks. Okay, bye.

Ray (11:37)

That's not you.

Bobby Bones (11:38)

I don't know the difference. That's cool, though. Next week, Tuesday, April 1st, are you doing. Are they Tuesday episodes?

Cat (11:44)

Yeah, still. So. No, I always had episodes Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Bobby Bones (11:48)

Thursday's the big day.

Cat (11:49)

Well, that was on Four Things because.

Bobby Bones (11:51)

That'S what I'm saying. Are you serious?

Cat (11:52)

So the new way is Tuesday is the bigger day, and Thursday is what we're calling couch talks, which will be listener Q and A. And since Cats a therapist, it's like, you're gonna go, like, you email us, and then it's like you're on the couch and Cat helps break things down.

Bobby Bones (12:06)

That's a bad day. That's a day that's going straight up against a Bobby cast.

Ray (12:09)

Oh, no.

Bobby Bones (12:10)

That's like Friends in Seinfeld going head to head.

Cat (12:12)

What's a bad day?

Bobby Bones (12:13)

Better Not Tuesdays.

Cat (12:14)

But. But I've always had episodes.

Bobby Bones (12:16)

Not your big one. You're. You're.

Cat (12:17)

I mean, whatever. They're both going to be the same. It's both me and Cat now.

Bobby Bones (12:20)

I'm fired up. Stop. I'm suing her.

Ray (12:22)

Call your lawyer back.

Cat (12:22)

No, it always felt backwards. Got to call my lawyer, remember?

Bobby Bones (12:25)

Bye. Bye. Sell. Sell. Oh, wrong person again.

Cat (12:27)

Yeah. Hey, also, Bobby, my podcast, like, think of it this way. My podcast is under your network, so if I make downloads and money, you make downloads and money fractional.

Bobby Bones (12:40)

But I hope you make still, I hope you make all the money, and then I'm gonna make all that back when I sue you. It's awesome. What a cycle we're in here.

Cat (12:47)

Okay, cool, Cool.

Ray (12:47)

I like the love in the air today.

Bobby Bones (12:49)

Yeah. Anybody else have a themes? Sore losers? No, you do a whole thing. Yeah, we just introduce ourselves, but no themes.

Cat (12:56)

Theirs is fun, though. They go, dude. There's music, though.

Lunchbox (12:58)

Yeah. Ray made that beat.

Cat (12:59)

He has a beat. They have a beat.

Bobby Bones (13:01)

Ray. I know. I've heard you get. You act like you haven't heard it. Not only have I have, I heard it in my ears, like, listening. I've also heard them do it, like, in the room. Amy's like, did you know they do the Sore Losers? I'm like, I'm very familiar with the whole process and the contract.

Cat (13:13)

Yeah. They're also on your network.

Bobby Bones (13:15)

Yes, Ray, you did on GarageBand. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Are we running out of time or. No, we. Okay. No, we're good for another four minutes. Okay.

Cat (13:22)

Hit it.

Bobby Bones (13:23)

So you can hit it if you want, but I didn't know you made that on GarageBand. That's good. Yeah. It's not like a theme song. There's no talking, so we probably should have done some singing. We just never did, and it's probably too late now. You don't have to. We don't have a Bobby Cast theme song. We just play music and I start talking. Everything's different. I just enjoy. I enjoy both. Yeah. I may have to get Dodd to do one for us and get him in perpetuity.

Cat (13:46)

That's it.

Lunchbox (13:47)

That's a great idea. Every Thought about it.

Bobby Bones (13:49)

Hey, just be aware if you're like. And here's Ray and lunch. I'm coming after you guys. Morgan. Yeah. I have imaging. The guy Sykes, who does some of ours, he created imaging for me, for mine, with kind of music, like sound. Yeah, it has like a. Do you want me to play it? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Hold on. It's not a songy.

Cat (14:11)

No.

Bobby Bones (14:11)

Yes. Yeah.

Cat (14:12)

It's not like your guys's.

Ray (14:14)

This is off the laptop imaging.

Bobby Bones (14:15)

Yeah.

Cat (14:30)

Take this personally.

Bobby Bones (14:36)

Very close to a theme song. Except I. I. Hold on. Lawyer. Buy. Sell. Trade. Trade, Trade. Nvidia. Okay. Sell. Tesla. Sell. Yes. Okay. Mike David. Song. No, I have Ray doing like a voiceover, like an intro for me, but not like a theme song in perpetuity. How does that go? It was just a one time deal of $50. I wasn't asking the business part.

Cat (15:01)

How does it go?

Bobby Bones (15:02)

Like, what's wrong? I don't even know. Did you pay for perpetuity?

Cat (15:08)

I mean, that was. He probably did it a long time ago.

Bobby Bones (15:10)

It was a long time ago. Probably when I started it. Almost six years ago. Yeah. Okay, so how does it go? It's like a movie trailer. Voice, radio and trailer. Yeah. Like, I'm sorry, do you think? Yeah, he's like, this is Movie Mike's movie podcast. In the land where Mike does movie trailers. With so much movie knowledge, he's like a walking IMDb with glasses.

Ray (15:31)

Nice.

Bobby Bones (15:32)

That type of thing. I don't know, Brad. Maybe have your agent give a call. I mean, 50 bucks for five years of work. That's averaging like five bucks a year. It took me like five seconds. A lot of fives here. I don't know. Sounds like that foreign country slave labor if you ask me.

Cat (15:49)

That's the thing about y'all that can just like spit things out. Like, Bobby, you write those theme songs. And Ray just like does that so fast. Like, even with Walker, he did that like in a. Like, so fast. Like, I sent him the podcast title, description, whatever. And then like an hour later, I get that voicemail.

Bobby Bones (16:08)

Well, you didn't know is he called me. He's like, hey, can you. I'm out of ideas. Can you sing something? And I send it back to Amy and I was like, I got it.

Cat (16:13)

Yeah, but y'all. Y'all all, like, if you have that gift, it's just like, comes fast.

Bobby Bones (16:20)

All said, Amy's deal launches Tuesday. Up against the Bobby cast. We'll see how it goes.

Cat (16:27)

Tuesday, April 1st is also the day that my dad died.

Bobby Bones (16:30)

So there's no need for that. I know people, but there's really no need for that.

Ray (16:33)

Maybe that's a special thing.

Cat (16:34)

It's a special thing, you know, but there's no.

Bobby Bones (16:35)

No, no, no. Tuesday, April 1st.

Cat (16:37)

If you're having to say, I have.

Bobby Bones (16:38)

A list of everybody that's ever died and they love the Bobby cast and I'd like to celebrate them.

Cat (16:42)

If you're. If you're torn on who to listen to on Tuesday, then I need your support that day.

Bobby Bones (16:48)

You know what? I respect it. I do.

Cat (16:50)

Thank you. Because it's a hard day.

Bobby Bones (16:51)

What's the day? April 1st.

Cat (16:52)

April 1st. Yeah. I'll never forget it because we all. We just kept joking that we thought our dad was gonna wake up and.

Bobby Bones (16:58)

Be like, april Fool's Gotcha.

Cat (17:00)

Because we had to unplug him and he'd be like, gotcha. So. But he didn't. But then the next day, we know he didn't.

Bobby Bones (17:07)

Amy's like, spoiler, he didn't.

Cat (17:08)

Marvin Gaye, this is your birthday, Bobby.

Ray (17:11)

Marvin Gaye.

Bobby Bones (17:11)

Yeah. Today, Bobby cast, there's an extra one up with just Caitlyn and I for an hour talking about our trip that you can hear where I was detained by French authorities, and I wasn't able to really talk about it. And I talked about on the podcast, but she. I didn't know she was coming down to the studio and she heard me telling the story and she was like, I would like to actually tell the real story. So there's two versions. Mine's the correct one, but it may already be up. Is that. It is up. So you can hear that. It's the Bobby cast with Caitlyn and myself. Okay, thank you. Amy won a Gracie. Another award for Amy as a solo artist. She's Fergie, basically. She's Beyonce.

Cat (17:49)

What?

Bobby Bones (17:51)

What?

Ray (17:52)

Did you win it or not?

Cat (17:53)

I did, but.

Lunchbox (17:54)

Oh, what is a Gracie?

Cat (17:56)

It's an award for Women in media. It's the Women in Media alliance. And I won one back in 2014. And so 11 years later, I'm getting a different one.

Lunchbox (18:07)

So what did you win one for? Just for you being a woman in media.

Bobby Bones (18:10)

Being a great woman in media.

Cat (18:12)

Well, this particular one is for women in I heart women of I heart country. And the other one, I guess, was for 30 ABES with the Bobby Bone Show.

Bobby Bones (18:20)

30 ABE, 38. That's a long one.

Lunchbox (18:22)

We were a part of 30 ABES. I think we should have got that. But women of iheart country, you won an award for that show.

Cat (18:28)

How much you did this last time. I won an award for that show.

Lunchbox (18:31)

No, no.

Bobby Bones (18:32)

What did he do?

Cat (18:32)

Okay, before this exact rant.

Bobby Bones (18:33)

But what did I do? I don't remember.

Cat (18:36)

Tell me, why in the world would she win that? And why she win awards and we're not winning something?

Lunchbox (18:40)

And that wasn't what I was gonna say.

Cat (18:43)

Okay, what were you gonna say? Now you're gonna change it.

Lunchbox (18:44)

How long is that show?

Cat (18:46)

It's a weekend show.

Lunchbox (18:47)

But how long does it last?

Cat (18:49)

It's an hour.

Lunchbox (18:50)

One hour?

Cat (18:51)

Yeah, but it's on over 200 stations.

Lunchbox (18:53)

So it's only on for one hour.

Cat (18:54)

Yeah.

Lunchbox (18:55)

And how much of that show do you write?

Cat (18:58)

Well, I go over the entire script and make it my own. I don't. And Bobby picks the songs.

Lunchbox (19:04)

Oh, and Bobby picks us. So Amy won an award for the show that Bobby picks a song and someone writes of it, so Amy just reads it.

Ray (19:12)

Well, it does. Take a village.

Bobby Bones (19:13)

Well, hey, you're right.

Cat (19:15)

It does. Yeah. That's a whole.

Lunchbox (19:16)

I'm just wondering.

Bobby Bones (19:17)

Haven't you. Wait, Have? Have. Didn't you win? You've got awards and crap. You didn't win by yourself. For what? It's a good point. It's a great question. That's a great. CMA or ACM burned himself for a while.

Lunchbox (19:28)

ACM and cma, we all get the award, right?

Cat (19:31)

So women of our country is everybody. I include every. I mean, Bobby's the first person I texted, and I'm like, hey.

Lunchbox (19:36)

So he got an award, too.

Cat (19:37)

He's not a woman.

Bobby Bones (19:38)

I don't have a vagina. I don't think.

Cat (19:40)

But last time he checks.

Bobby Bones (19:41)

Yes, it's been a while. I think that.

Cat (19:45)

Okay, well, I'm not a programmer, and neither is Bobby, really. But when it comes to women out of her country, it was his idea. So he programs the music.

Bobby Bones (19:54)

Okay.

Lunchbox (19:54)

It's a little crazy.

Cat (19:55)

And, Gator, why are you.

Lunchbox (19:57)

No, I'm not hating. I'm just asking questions for.

Bobby Bones (19:59)

Oh. Oh, you been a journalist? Oh, I didn't understand. He was just people.

Lunchbox (20:02)

I'm just from the, you know, New England Times.

Bobby Bones (20:05)

Okay, when. When do you know when it is? Because it's really not about a single show.

Cat (20:10)

It's not.

Bobby Bones (20:11)

It's. It's.

Lunchbox (20:11)

No one else clapped for.

Ray (20:12)

We did.

Bobby Bones (20:13)

We did that earlier. That's not Clapping time. Y'all did this. The Gracie is not so much about a single show, which the women of Wire country is. That's a whole different reason that show exists. But it's not about Amy hosting that Show Amy has that as one of her vessels. But it's about being a woman and representing women. Well, in media, being someone who is able to be an example to other women in media, someone who. It doesn't even matter that she's a woman. That still performs at a level just generally that is extremely high. So that's what it is.

Lunchbox (20:51)

But it says it's for that show specifically.

Bobby Bones (20:54)

Well, you have to have one show.

Cat (20:56)

Somebody in our company.

Bobby Bones (20:57)

Yes.

Cat (20:58)

Submitted under that. I didn't even know I get an.

Lunchbox (21:00)

Award for representing men.

Cat (21:02)

Would you.

Bobby Bones (21:04)

Do that?

Lunchbox (21:05)

Why isn't there.

Bobby Bones (21:07)

That's every. That's every cat. That's everyone.

Lunchbox (21:08)

I mean, let's represent for being men, man.

Cat (21:11)

Something that's been around for 50 years. In fact, I saw, when I saw the announcement go out, I was like, oh, that's cool. It's the 50th anniversary of the awards this year, and something special is back in 2004, we went. Bobby introduced me to go up and accept the award. And then my mom got to be there with me. And that was like her last trip she ever took. And I remember she was really, really, really sick. And then she ended up passing away early or later that year. And so it's really special. Like, it's a memory for me. And I think this year, hopefully, if it works out, I'll be able to take my daughter. So it'll sort of be like last time I was there with my mom, and then this year I'll be there with my daughter.

Bobby Bones (21:44)

I'm proud of you.

Lunchbox (21:44)

Whoa, whoa. When is it.

Bobby Bones (21:45)

You deserve it.

Cat (21:46)

Oh, May 20th. That's the thing.

Bobby Bones (21:47)

Oh, do you want to introduce her?

Cat (21:48)

It's a Tuesday.

Bobby Bones (21:49)

Yeah.

Lunchbox (21:50)

I mean, I may be able to go.

Bobby Bones (21:54)

I'm going to tell you. And I've at this point in my career, I've been doing this a long time. Over 25 years. Yeah.

Lunchbox (22:05)

May 20th.

Bobby Bones (22:06)

A long. A long time. And we've done my calendar. And when I think about bits that just that stick in my head, one of them was one is me or the show doesn't matter because it's irrelevant for personality at the Austin Music Awards. And Carlos, our producer, I lied to him and told him the dress code was full suit. No, no, no. Lunchbox. First of all, lunchbox was the full suit at dinner. I'm getting these confused.

Lunchbox (22:41)

That was Ruth Chris thing.

Ray (22:43)

Yes.

Bobby Bones (22:43)

We're all in, like, normal clothes, and I'm like, you have to wear a full suit for this. And he shows up in a full suit, and we Laugh for hours.

Lunchbox (22:48)

I've never been to Ruth Cruz.

Bobby Bones (22:49)

We're like, we're going to an awards show. It's full suit, dress code. He shows up in his dad's suit, like, vest everything.

Ray (22:56)

Guys, that's good stuff, dude.

Bobby Bones (22:57)

It's. I laugh about. There's like, five things I laugh about still. That's one. The Carlos thing was I wanted him. They're like, you win the award. I said, if we win, you go, man, I love this so much. When I'm living my life, like it's flashing before my eyes, one of my memories is going to be this. Carlos went up and accepted the award. And I said, when you go up and accept the award, here's the. You know, here's the speech. Just like, thank everybody. I said, but as soon as you finish, start over again and do it as many times over and over again until they come and get you and take you off stage.

Ray (23:31)

How many times did you do it?

Bobby Bones (23:32)

Like, seven. They were confused. And he gets up, and he's like, I just want to say thank you. And he goes on and on, and then he just goes, I just want to say thank you. And they don't know if he's, like, saying the same thing or if he's like, he. About the fourth time, I'm losing it. I'm in the crowd. I'm hurting. I'm laughing so much. The lunchbox wearing the suit makes me want to, like, cry now. It was so funny.

Lunchbox (23:57)

I still remember that vividly.

Bobby Bones (23:59)

Carlos doing the. This speech over and over again until they have to pull him off the.

Lunchbox (24:04)

Stage, and then he has to do it without laughing.

Bobby Bones (24:07)

And he did. He never broke. Is so funny. I think Lunchbox presenting Amy. This would be a real highlight for me. I'm just gonna be honest with you. I don't think you should let him do it, but if you did, I think that would go down in my cherished moments of.

Cat (24:24)

But, I mean, I think he would be respectable. Like, what would he have to do?

Bobby Bones (24:28)

He gets to say what he wants. He gets to go up and say whatever he wants about you and be.

Cat (24:32)

Like, what do you think he would say?

Bobby Bones (24:33)

Well, I think if.

Cat (24:34)

What would make it memorable?

Bobby Bones (24:36)

I think if he were the. Not the character version. He amplifies the times to get attention on the show. I think if he were the normal person, I think he would say some nice things about you, hit you with a couple jokes, but because he knows it'd be a bit. He'd probably fart. I mean, it'd be all it. It'd be Girls Gone Wild on stage, and I would really find joy in that. But I don't think you should let him do it. But, man, when I think about some of those bits, like, that was just a good old days, man.

Ray (25:04)

I just told someone recently about the time you told everyone I was a Chilean miner.

Bobby Bones (25:08)

That was another award show.

Ray (25:09)

That was so stupid.

Bobby Bones (25:10)

Oh, man. All the stuff's happening in award shows.

Lunchbox (25:12)

That was. That was one of our, like, nose. A Christmas concert.

Bobby Bones (25:15)

No, no, no, no. It was an award show. I'd won. It was like a philanthropy award. And Eddie went.

Cat (25:24)

Eddie went after the Chilean miners.

Bobby Bones (25:27)

Yeah, because they'd been trapped in a mine and they were saved. And I went up on stage to.

Ray (25:35)

He didn't tell me anything. He just went up and received.

Bobby Bones (25:37)

I don't even know that I had it planned out, if I'm being honest with you.

Ray (25:39)

You probably did.

Bobby Bones (25:40)

I just say crap. And I get up and I'm thanking people, and I asked Eddie to come to the award. We're sitting. It's roundtables, and they're like, you know, he's doing good stuff for the community. And I'm like, hey, I don't really want this to be about me. Like, at our table is one of the miners who's. Who was in. One of the Chilean miners who stuck in the mine, who was stuck and risked his life for.

Ray (26:01)

For, like, how long? Like, weeks. Right.

Bobby Bones (26:03)

They. People would not stop talking down the whole night about it. And he had to, like, he had to keep an accent.

Ray (26:08)

No, first. First off, there was a standing ovation for me.

Bobby Bones (26:10)

They stood up. Yes. Yes. Oh, my gosh, that was awesome. And then they weren't for 69 days. Just looked it up.

Ray (26:16)

And then people would come up to me as I was sitting at the table and be like, oh, I'm so, you know, proud of you guys. And, you know, and one person asked me, like, what was it like down there?

Bobby Bones (26:25)

Eddie had to stop talking because he didn't want to, because I wasn't going to. He wasn't even, like. He wasn't even like, I'm going to be a part of the bit. But he didn't want to, like, ruin it. So he'd be like, yeah.

Ray (26:35)

They were like, how. What was it like down there? And I was like, it was cold.

Bobby Bones (26:40)

It was cold. It was so funny. That's a great story. Stupid man. That's a great story. Amy, I'm proud of you. That's a great job.

Lunchbox (26:50)

And I'm proud of You, Bobby, script writers, you guys did a great job, too.

Bobby Bones (26:54)

I don't write the script.

Lunchbox (26:55)

I didn't say you.

Bobby Bones (26:55)

The only thing that I did.

Cat (26:56)

My D sends me a script, and I make it my own.

Bobby Bones (27:00)

No, don't. Don't let them affect you.

Cat (27:02)

We get a script for. We don't. It's not like a.

Bobby Bones (27:06)

The only other people know.

Cat (27:07)

Like, we don't have a script here, but it's a. Oh, really?

Bobby Bones (27:12)

There's a script on this show.

Cat (27:14)

Terrible script. But I'm trying to explain to people that it's a music show. So you're just setting up the songs. Lunchbox. And then I have two breaks that I do where I throw in whatever content, like, I want to talk about. Oh, and I.

Lunchbox (27:27)

How long do those breaks last?

Cat (27:28)

They're like a minute.

Bobby Bones (27:29)

Please stop answering his questions.

Cat (27:31)

It's not.

Bobby Bones (27:31)

Don't walk down that road with him.

Cat (27:32)

It's a show that highlights women in country music.

Bobby Bones (27:35)

You didn't win because of that show.

Lunchbox (27:37)

That's what it is.

Bobby Bones (27:37)

You won. No, that's what it is.

Cat (27:39)

That's what I was nominated for. Under.

Ray (27:41)

Well, for the record, you know, I'm not going on lunchbox aside here, but when I remember when you've got the first, like, I don't know, ACM or something or cma, it was just you, and you were like, no, no, I.

Bobby Bones (27:51)

Want to change everybody's name on this.

Ray (27:52)

Everyone on this. So if you would do that, Amy.

Cat (27:55)

Like for the Women's Alliance. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't mind.

Bobby Bones (27:59)

I wouldn't mind being on the war. I mean, it is my. It is my show now that we bring it up. I mean, it's in my contract. So, yeah, I like to. But, like, who would be spelled with an I? So I think it could be a girl.

Cat (28:09)

Bobby.

Bobby Bones (28:10)

B, O, B, B, I. Bobby.

Cat (28:13)

Well, I don't know how that works.

Bobby Bones (28:14)

You're not.

Cat (28:15)

I, I.

Bobby Bones (28:15)

Obviously, you're not winning because of that show. You're winning because of who you are. That's just the way that you're in media. That's what you do. You're winning because of who you are. That's what it is. So don't. Don't stop answering his questions because he's like, who wrote the script? That's not why. You're winning because of a script. You're winning because of who you are. You represent the people that you affect, but you need some platform to be on to be in this broadcasting world, this alliance. You kill it. It's awesome.

Ray (28:44)

Would you at least thank them.

Cat (28:45)

Of course I thanked everybody last time when I went up there for 30 ABEs, the whole show. I mean, Bobby introduced me. He had this whole speech. And then you gave me your speech. Framed. You printed it out and framed it.

Bobby Bones (29:01)

It's my finest work. I thought you should have. Yeah. Thank you. I was like, you should really have this. This is really gonna.

Cat (29:06)

No, it was thoughtful because my mom was there with me.

Bobby Bones (29:08)

It was. Because mostly it was things I felt about her. Cause it's kind of.

Cat (29:17)

And it's something we had done for her.

Ray (29:18)

That was kind of cool.

Bobby Bones (29:19)

That was kind of egotistical to be. I wrote this. I think you should have it. I'm gonna frame it. But it was really things about things.

Cat (29:23)

In there, like talking about my kids being in Haiti because we were fundraising for Haiti, and then my mom being there. Like, that's why you printed it out. It's not like you were like, here's my words on paper, and I'm writing.

Lunchbox (29:36)

My speech in my head right now.

Cat (29:37)

Well, give us a little.

Bobby Bones (29:38)

No, I don't want to ruin it. I'm going to do. They announced the nominations for ACMs. I forgot about this because I did it yesterday. I recorded part of it. Let's go. So. Already know. So I guess I thought it was yesterday. So that's on me for not saying it on the show today. Let's start down a little lower, and then we'll kind of build our way up. Keep going. Let's do. Yeah. Album of the Year. Megan Maroney. Am I okay? Jelly Roll. Beautifully broken Zach Top. Cold beer and country music. Post Malone F1 trillion. Lany Wilson, whirlwind. It was pretty good. If I. I'm just gonna pick off of my brain. I have no idea. But it's gonna be. Zach Topp is the hot thing now because he's awesome, but I'm gonna go Megan Maroney. Am I okay? I'm gonna pick my favorite. Instead of thinking, trying to predict. Even though I like all these people, I'm gonna go Megan Maroney. Am I okay? All right, go ahead. Next up, new duo or group of the year. R. There's only three. How can we not get.

Ray (30:36)

We should be the fourth.

Bobby Bones (30:38)

This is so stupid, man. Except for the Red Clay Strays. We sell more tickets than. Than. And I. I like these Red Clades Straight.

Ray (30:45)

They're not a duo.

Bobby Bones (30:46)

Duo. Regroup. New do. Regroup.

Ray (30:48)

Got it.

Bobby Bones (30:49)

Restless Road, Red Clay Strays, Treaty Oak Revival. I like the guys from Restless Road. Good, Good. Not Kids anymore, but young me, young men. Yeah. Yeah, you're right. Red clay stores are freaking awesome.

Ray (31:01)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (31:01)

Yeah.

Lunchbox (31:01)

They gave away good hoodies, I'll tell you that. I like them.

Ray (31:04)

We saw them at CMAs.

Bobby Bones (31:05)

They're so good. And they didn't respond.

Ray (31:07)

No.

Bobby Bones (31:08)

New male artist of the year. Gavin Adcock. Shaboozi. Zach Top, Tucker Wetmore. Bailey Zimmerman.

Lunchbox (31:16)

Bailey Zimmerman's new.

Ray (31:18)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (31:19)

What new means is you've never won before.

Lunchbox (31:23)

Got it.

Bobby Bones (31:23)

Any award. So that's why last year, Mitchell Tenpenny. Thank you. We were like, new artists, best new artist. And he's like, yeah, I've never won it. So that's tough because Zach Topp is the trendy pick. He's really good, but he hasn't had the success as far as, like, at whatever the chart success. The headlining Shaboozies had the biggest song forever, but that feels old now. I think that affects it, but Bailey does too. But I'm gonna. I'm gonna go Bailey. I'm. I'm just gonna go Bailey Zimmerman also. I love Bailey as a person. Like, I'm a dude. I want to go Bailey. New female artist of the year, Cassie Ashton. Yeah. Big fan of Cassie. Ashley Cook, Dasha. Please, God, no. Ella Langley or Jesse Murph. I'm gonna. I'm gonna pick Cassie Ashton, Known Cassie forever. Ella Langley probably wins it because she had a big hit. Llangley probably wins it. If Dasha wins, I leave. All right. Group of the year. Flatland, Calvary, Little Big Town, Old Dominion, Rascal Flats, Red Clay Strays. Old Dominion wins that.

Ray (32:45)

I mean, that would be like a streak, right?

Bobby Bones (32:49)

Yeah. I'm not sure I get the awards confused too. And I just imagine we're in the industry, and I still get them confused.

Ray (32:54)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (32:55)

If I'm gonna go pay to watch a band, it's gonna be Red Clay Strays, but Old Dominion wins that one. Duo of the year, Warren Treaty, Muscadine. Bloodline, Dan and Shea, Brothers Osborne, Brooks and Dunn. Interesting because it's not talent because everybody has their own different skill and the warranty are so good. And Mascotine Bloodline are so good, but not as known as far as. I'm not sure who's voting on this. People. It's like radio people all over the world, all over the country. Danish and Brothers Olive oil could cancel each other out.

Ray (33:32)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (33:33)

I'm going Brooks and Dunn Duo of the year. Nice.

Cat (33:35)

Nice.

Bobby Bones (33:36)

I was also with them yesterday.

Cat (33:37)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (33:39)

And also Ronnie was like, you can wear my suit if you want to wear it.

Ray (33:42)

That's right.

Bobby Bones (33:43)

Yeah. I don't even know if I'm going yet.

Ray (33:45)

Is that Manuel?

Bobby Bones (33:48)

He gave me a bunch of options. Yeah, but Ronnie's taller than I am.

Ray (33:51)

Yeah, he's a tall dude.

Bobby Bones (33:52)

He's a big guy. Male artist of the year. Luke Combs. Cody Johnson, Jelly Roll. Chris Stableton. Morgan Wallen. You can throw a dart.

Ray (34:00)

Yeah.

Cat (34:01)

Mm.

Bobby Bones (34:02)

Because I'm.

Cat (34:04)

I wonder if that's how they'll pick it.

Bobby Bones (34:05)

I'm not. Well, basically, they'll just add all the votes, you know, But I'm just. That's not even what. Because I'm never uncomfortable to have an opinion. I don't have an opinion on this one. Because all of them could win. And you go, yeah, of course. Duh. There's not even, like, an outlier of, like, somebody who got. Oh. Their first year in. Good for them. That's. That's a. You know, they won't win. But that. That shows they're reaching a new level. No. All five of those people. Combs, Cody Johnson, Jelly Roll, Stapleton, Wallen. I mean, if I'm get. Okay. Wallen. Just ticket sales and singles, but they're all awesome. Female artist of the year, Kelsey Ballerini. Ella Langley, Megan Maroney, Casey Musgrave, Lainey Wilson. That has to be Lainey. Unless people are tired of Lainey winning everything, and that happens. Casey Musgrave is one of my top favorite artists of all time, but I don't think she gets it because she kind of dgaf and, like, you know, you don't want to pick me. F you guys respect it. Be cool if she did it with Megan Moroni, too. Megan Moroni's awesome. Like, best news. I think Lainey Wilson probably wins it. If I were picking up on my own purse, I think Laney wins it. Yeah. And then entertainer of the year, as of right now, Lainey Wilson, Morgan Wallen, Chris Stapleton, Jelly Roll, Cody Johnson, Luke Combs, Kelsey Ballerane. Wow. Kelsey got in. I'm going to go. Let me eliminate some. I don't think Kelsey wins this. Is that what I was talking about earlier? First time in. Good, Good. Cool. It looks like you've hit a new place.

Ray (35:51)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (35:52)

Congratulations. But you don't win it the first time, so Kelsey out. Laney's won it, and sometimes that affects it. So I'm gonna. I'm gonna take Laney out. Stapleton's won it a bunch. I'm gonna take Stapleton out. That leaves Luke Combs, Cody Johnson, Jelly Roll, Morgan Wallen. I think it's gonna be Jelly Roll and Morgan Wallen.

Ray (36:21)

Does Morgan Wallen even show up? Because I don't think I've seen him.

Bobby Bones (36:24)

At an CMA's last time. And he finally, like, a year later, put out a little video, being like, oh, yeah, thanks. Like, in, like, a carousel. Like, who should win Entertainer of the Year? Morgan Wallen. Yeah, that's a good list. I mean, should. Who even knows what should means? That doesn't mean I'm less of a fan of any of them. And I'm much closer to other people on the list than Morgan. So. Yeah, there you go. Entertainer the Year. Good. Good luck, everybody. Last. The last winners were last year, Laney. And I think that probably hurts her this year if she won last year. Stapleton before that. Same thing. Miranda, Luke, Covid, Carrie and Thomas. Right? Tie. Yeah. Good for them.

Ray (37:09)

This is the one in Dallas.

Cat (37:12)

Yeah, it was Vegas and now it's Dallas.

Bobby Bones (37:15)

Yes, but not Dallas.

Ray (37:17)

Frisco. Yeah. The star.

Bobby Bones (37:19)

Yeah, Frisco. Okay, let me see if there's anything else I need to say real quick. I have a lot, but I just. I'm good for now. Okay, that's it for today. Thank you, everybody. Mike, am I forgetting anything? You're good. Okay, thank you, guys.

Lunchbox (37:39)

Wait, should we have the Gracie Award winner take us out?

Cat (37:45)

It's okay.

Lunchbox (37:46)

So good at it.

Ray (37:48)

Be proud, Amy. Don't let him.

Bobby Bones (37:50)

Yeah, you're. You're letting him affect you.

Ray (37:52)

Yeah.

Bobby Bones (37:53)

You want an award that you deserved.

Cat (37:55)

It's not a big deal.

Bobby Bones (37:56)

It is a big deal.

Ray (37:57)

It's a big deal.

Bobby Bones (37:58)

Now he's making you say.

Cat (38:00)

Yeah. No, he's not making me. Like, the whole thing is just. I get it.

Bobby Bones (38:04)

I don't. I don't mean when. I get it. We're out of here.

Cat (38:06)

Yeah, we're out of here.

Bobby Bones (38:08)

Eczema isn't always obvious, but it's real. And so is the relief from Ebglis. After an initial dosing phase of 16 weeks, about 4 in 10 people taking EBGLIS achieved itch relief and clear or almost clear skin. And most of those people maintained skin that's still more clear. At one year with monthly doses, EBGLIS.
