Speaker 5: nothing compared to what you're throwing. So don't worry about what.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I still Patrick Mahomes, that'll do you kind of shadowed?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, so that's what's happening. Let's go around the
Speaker 3: room and check in with everybody. Amy, what's going on
Speaker 3: with you?
Speaker 6: Well, so I had to fill out some paperwork yesterday
Speaker 6: and it's something that I've been thinking about probably for
Speaker 6: the last year now that I've been divorced. Anytime I
Speaker 6: have to fill out something where it asks me my status,
Speaker 6: it'll say single, married, divorced, widowed.
Speaker 3: And interesting, you're single and divorced?
Speaker 2: Are you divorced? You're not single? It's single only if
Speaker 2: you've never been married, right, yes it is.
Speaker 6: But also at some of these places that I'm filling
Speaker 6: this out and like, what what is it your business?
Speaker 7: I am get angry and girl, well, I guess I.
Speaker 6: Just don't know why that's necessary information. And then every
Speaker 6: time it's this reminder of like divorced, you know, and
Speaker 6: I can't imagine if I was widowed. Widowed yeah that
Speaker 6: you bring it up like it stirs up emotion. So
Speaker 6: I don't know if they're just as part of collecting data.
Speaker 6: I mean, I think at certain appointments it helps know, okay,
Speaker 6: if you're married, or do you have insurance or how
Speaker 6: many dependents, like all that sort of stuff. But some
Speaker 6: stuff I'm filling out, I'm like, this is not necessary.
Speaker 6: I could just put single and be done with it.
Speaker 6: But then I'm like, well, I guess I've better divorced.
Speaker 3: Yet they have a nunia.
Speaker 7: Box y, I'm gonna add that you're.
Speaker 2: In you nya in the drawbox and check it yourself. None,
Speaker 2: that's funny, Eddie.
Speaker 3: What's going on with you?
Speaker 8: Man?
Speaker 5: So, my dad passed away, you know, a few weeks ago,
Speaker 5: and I've just kind of been dealing with it kind
Speaker 5: of just normally.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 5: I think you know, my family and I we talk
Speaker 5: about it, but just for the most part, I've kind
Speaker 5: of just carried on with normal life every day. And man,
Speaker 5: just the other day, I reached for my phone, I
Speaker 5: thought about my dad and I almost called him, which
Speaker 5: was bizarre, and I stopped myself in the middle of
Speaker 5: being like, oh my gosh.
Speaker 3: Do you normally call them at the time that you
Speaker 3: were about to call him?
Speaker 5: Yeah, that would be the time when I'm like on
Speaker 5: the way home, driving home from work, and I'm just like, oh,
Speaker 5: you know what, I saw one of those Volkswagen electric
Speaker 5: buses or whatever, and we had talked about that. I
Speaker 5: was like, oh, man, I'm gonna tell that I saw that,
Speaker 5: and I'm.
Speaker 2: Like, he's not with us anymore.
Speaker 3: That's crazy, And it happens. And then you'll also have
Speaker 3: like because my.
Speaker 2: Mom, Amy's dad and mom, they've all passed away, So
Speaker 2: you'll have random times where it also just comes at
Speaker 2: you out of nowhere that does nothing about any sort
Speaker 2: of pattern you're already in.
Speaker 3: Yeah, where it's like.
Speaker 2: A random song or memory, and eventually it gets to
Speaker 2: be good. Every once in a while it's still kind
Speaker 2: of sad, but mostly most of those sad ones turn
Speaker 2: into good ones.
Speaker 3: At least mine have like the memories.
Speaker 2: Just because you're like, you've mourned, and it's kind of
Speaker 2: a reminder in a good way, more than a reminder
Speaker 2: of they're not here anymore.
Speaker 3: Sure, but it'll shift.
Speaker 6: Right, Yeah, I feel like grief is always there. But
Speaker 6: it's sort of like the analogy they have the grief backpack,
Speaker 6: and sometimes the backpack's a little bit heavier, and sometimes
Speaker 6: the backpack's light, but it's always.
Speaker 3: I've never heard of that. Amy's got a lot of sayings,
Speaker 3: you know.
Speaker 5: And you know I thought of Amy too, because, like,
Speaker 5: you know, I feel bad I've made fun of her
Speaker 5: so much about seeing cardinals and her thinking that that's
Speaker 5: her mom. Like now, sit in the backyard. I'm like,
Speaker 5: come on, blue Jay, let's bring it on.
Speaker 3: You're free to sell many fun of her.
Speaker 7: No, you'll know, you'll know, you don't know what kind
Speaker 7: of is going to be, but you'll know.
Speaker 3: Does you have to be a bird?
Speaker 1: Though?
Speaker 3: Why can he be like a raccoon or something? Maybe
Speaker 3: I did see a raccoon the other day.
Speaker 2: We'll lunchbox anything from you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, I got a question.
Speaker 9: I need to know at what age is it okay
Speaker 9: to start doing a sleepover because my four year old
Speaker 9: got an invitation to a birthday party and it said
Speaker 9: we are excited excited to celebrate Jack's.
Speaker 3: Birthday with a sleepover.
Speaker 9: The invitation said we will play games, eat pizza, and
Speaker 9: celebrate Jack. Drop your kid off at five pm and
Speaker 9: then we will see you at ten am on Sunday
Speaker 9: for pick up.
Speaker 3: And I'm like, excuse me, do they invite other parents
Speaker 3: to stay too if they want? Always said drop your
Speaker 3: kids drop off? Is that a lot of four year olds
Speaker 3: is a little young for a lot.
Speaker 7: Of four year old Bok shows up with the sleeping bag. Hey,
Speaker 7: guys in.
Speaker 3: Full pajamas with a pajina hat.
Speaker 7: Yeah, four, we're too young in my opinion.
Speaker 3: How do you feel about it?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 3: I thought it was way too young and a I mean,
Speaker 3: how do you know these parents?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Oh, then no, for sure?
Speaker 9: No, I mean no, even if you know the parent.
Speaker 9: I mean, it just seems weird to want four year
Speaker 9: olds to have a sleepover.
Speaker 3: What's the age where you let it happen?
Speaker 7: Golly? For sure?
Speaker 6: I mean I can let my daughter at like yeah, ten,
Speaker 6: I mean, but I got my kids late. She was
Speaker 6: ten eleven, so I guess she got a friend. I
Speaker 6: like eleven twelve, so my kids were a little bit later.
Speaker 6: But it's so hard. I'm like, let's do it in
Speaker 6: my house. I like having that control.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I think our first time was eight or nine. Yeah,
Speaker 5: and it was weird.
Speaker 3: Too, didn't.
Speaker 5: I didn't like having all those kids at the house.
Speaker 5: I didn't like it at all.
Speaker 2: Seemed so young. Glad you guys are here. Thank you
Speaker 2: nice checking everybody. Good here for everybody. Gud you all
Speaker 2: me it to work today.
Speaker 3: Thank you. You're welcome.
Speaker 8: Welcome A question to be.
Speaker 3: He loot Bobby Bones.
Speaker 2: I recently said something to my boyfriend of more than
Speaker 2: a year about him liking a bunch of racy pics
Speaker 2: of a girl we went to school with. He said
Speaker 2: it wasn't a big deal, He's just being nice. But
Speaker 2: then he made his Instagram account private, so I can't
Speaker 2: see his posts anymore.
Speaker 3: I haven't said anything.
Speaker 2: To him about it, but I feel like he's acting
Speaker 2: suspicious and trying to hide stuff.
Speaker 3: Is this a red flag? Should I let it go?
Speaker 3: Or ask him? What's up?
Speaker 2: Signed Instagram girlfriend? Well, this is a weird one because
Speaker 2: it's like an idiot move followed up by a more
Speaker 2: idiotic move. Usually, when you do an idiot move, you
Speaker 2: go oops, got caught. Don't do that anymore. You don't
Speaker 2: double down on doing stupid stuff.
Speaker 7: Yeah, so I would say red flag, but maybe he.
Speaker 5: Really believes that he didn't do anything better.
Speaker 2: But it's so stupid that it's like, I'm almost like,
Speaker 2: this is so stupid of a second decision he made
Speaker 2: that maybe he's not up to anything, shade, he's just
Speaker 2: an idiot.
Speaker 7: Well, look go back and read his response when she
Speaker 7: brought it up. What did you say?
Speaker 10: No?
Speaker 3: He blocked, he no, no.
Speaker 7: No, I know what he did. But he said something
Speaker 7: to her like didn't he say like you?
Speaker 3: He said it wasn't a big deal and he would just.
Speaker 6: Be a nice Okay, So when you tell someone if
Speaker 6: they're having feelings about something that is not a big deal,
Speaker 6: like that's he's discounting how she's feeling about it.
Speaker 2: Correct, But that's not the question. The question is is
Speaker 2: he up to no good? Yeah? I think it depends
Speaker 2: your age. First of all, if you're between seventeen and
Speaker 2: twenty four, he can just be an idiot. And sometimes
Speaker 2: you got to grow out of the idiot stage if
Speaker 2: you're a dude. Also, if you're in a relationship, just
Speaker 2: as it heads up to guys, don't be liking pictures
Speaker 2: of anybody in your life that's opposite sect in a bikini.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you don't need to worry about being nice to them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, it's not in a bikini just because of
Speaker 2: what it might bring you just not worth it, So
Speaker 2: I would say, what's wrong? Boosting's almost confident. This is
Speaker 2: just a double it's such a double stupid though. I
Speaker 2: think the person's just stupid and not shady, because to
Speaker 2: be shady you got to somewhat have a strategy, and
Speaker 2: strategy when you get copy and stupid, it's not to
Speaker 2: be more stupid. He also hats to be blocking you
Speaker 2: to be like prove a point. But definitely Redflex said
Speaker 2: he's stupid. Why do you want to be somebody so stupid?
Speaker 3: That is so funny. He said he was just doing
Speaker 3: it to be nice.
Speaker 2: But also I can see like an idiot dude being
Speaker 2: like I just liked her. I just i'd see her
Speaker 2: if I saw our work or something. That's gonna be nice, idiot,
Speaker 2: But I'm not sticking up for him. That's you need
Speaker 2: to figure out if he's an idiot or if he's shady,
Speaker 2: because I could be convinced either way, but it is
Speaker 2: not good either way, and you need to figure out
Speaker 2: which of the two quickly.
Speaker 7: Y'all don't like photos like that of other people right now?
Speaker 5: Oh are you kidding me. We like to be married. No,
Speaker 5: we just look at him, don't we us?
Speaker 3: Don't we?
Speaker 8: Uh?
Speaker 3: But I don't like him? No, that make me vomit. Disgusting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, something's up. Just figure out if he's an idiot
Speaker 2: or if he's shady. Either way, probably not your dude.
Speaker 2: If he's going step one, step two like that?
Speaker 3: All right, close it up.
Speaker 1: On the Bobby Bone Show, Trew, is this the week
Speaker 1: we're doing it?
Speaker 3: Away?
Speaker 11: This is it? Brother?
Speaker 2: So if Drew hits number one, which I think you're
Speaker 2: a three this week.
Speaker 11: Yeah, So we're three this week on media Base and
Speaker 11: five on Billboard.
Speaker 3: Okay, let's just keep it on media Base. It's all
Speaker 3: we care about right here.
Speaker 2: I like three this week at two I think was
Speaker 2: everybody get tipped.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and then at number one.
Speaker 2: It was uh ah, try Jack, try do So we've
Speaker 2: set up for this number one.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 2: The thing about Drew, if you've been listening to the
Speaker 2: stuff that we've been doing over on the Bobby Cast,
Speaker 2: if he reaches number one on media Base, he'll be
Speaker 2: the first ever self funded artist to reach the top
Speaker 2: spot with.
Speaker 3: Their their song.
Speaker 2: That's amazing self funded artist?
Speaker 3: What is self funded?
Speaker 7: Me?
Speaker 11: And Drew Well, I just had to create my own
Speaker 11: record label to do this, so I had to hire
Speaker 11: my own staff, and uh, you know which is which
Speaker 11: is a lot. I mean that's why artists, you know,
Speaker 11: back in the day really couldn't do. We're very lucky
Speaker 11: that streaming exists to kind of fund the staff to
Speaker 11: help send a radio because it's like, you can't just
Speaker 11: have a label and say hey, I'm sending song to
Speaker 11: radio and everybody just starts playing it. You know, you
Speaker 11: got to have people that rep you, that go out
Speaker 11: and say, hey, can you please play this? Please play this?
Speaker 11: And we're just very lucky that radio has been so kind.
Speaker 11: You know, I've been in Nashville for thirteen years now chasing.
Speaker 2: This overnight success is what I hear. I don't know
Speaker 2: about you guys. Never been a better example of overnight success.
Speaker 2: Talk about the song for a second. So she's somebody's daughter.
Speaker 2: How long ago did you write the song?
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 11: I wrote this song six years ago after meeting my
Speaker 11: wife's dad for the first time. She was just my girlfriend,
Speaker 11: and it was kind of just like one of those
Speaker 11: things of don't mess this up, like treat or write
Speaker 11: you know, I wanted to message to myself to remember that.
Speaker 11: So I wrote this song back in twenty eighteen and
Speaker 11: I was on a record label and we put it
Speaker 11: out in twenty nineteen and it just really, it really
Speaker 11: didn't do anything. There was a girl at that time
Speaker 11: had a song on to Neil Towns had a song
Speaker 11: called Somebody's Daughter, which was a great song, and I
Speaker 11: was like, you gotta be kidding me. And it was
Speaker 11: such a god blessing because we didn't put it out
Speaker 11: to radio and the label I was on closed in
Speaker 11: three months and because of you, not because I don't know,
Speaker 11: but it was just that they just wanted to shut
Speaker 11: their doors. And I thought, man, I'd get a new
Speaker 11: record deal. And twenty twenty came and COVID hit and
Speaker 11: nobody would you know, take meetings, and I almost quit.
Speaker 11: I lost my record deal, I lost my manager, I
Speaker 11: lost my booking agent. And the thing that I did
Speaker 11: was I said, Okay, that's kind of one last straw.
Speaker 11: I'm just going to post on my TikTok and just
Speaker 11: say hey, I'll play in anybody's backyard that wants to
Speaker 11: have me. And I thought we'd get like five requests.
Speaker 11: We end up getting I think close to twenty thousand requests.
Speaker 11: And I went around the country for two or three
Speaker 11: years and just played in three hundred people's backyards.
Speaker 3: Just the least amount of money you ever got for
Speaker 3: doing a backyard.
Speaker 11: Oh man, I think five hundred bucks.
Speaker 2: Okay, still respectable, kah. So no one got you for
Speaker 2: like two bucks and some milnt in their pocket, like
Speaker 2: oh man, yeah, oh crap, I forgot to bring my wallet.
Speaker 2: And what was the most anybody ever gave you?
Speaker 11: Man, I think, uh, you know, it's hard. I'm trying
Speaker 11: to remember. I think like five five thousand dollars to
Speaker 11: go play, and and that was I mean at that time,
Speaker 11: you know, everybody thought I was doing them such a favor, like, man,
Speaker 11: you being here as awesome. I can't believe in your yard.
Speaker 11: And I'd be like, man, no, like what you're doing
Speaker 11: for me is life changing. Like I have a son,
Speaker 11: you know, I have a wife, and I'm trying to
Speaker 11: live a lifestyle and stay in Nashville. It's expensive here,
Speaker 11: and just like they helped me so much. And now
Speaker 11: it's crazy to think that all those people we played
Speaker 11: in their backyards and I'm seeing posts every day. It's
Speaker 11: like this dude's almost got another one record. He was
Speaker 11: in our yard. You know, it's just crazy.
Speaker 2: And sometimes as a porchpirate, not even playing the show,
Speaker 2: it was just trying to steal stuff to get by. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so we feel like this could be the week man.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean right now, there's this thing called real
Speaker 11: Time that shows the chart in real time, and we're
Speaker 11: a number one. Guys, we're a number one in real time,
Speaker 11: and it's such a blessing and I just can't believe it.
Speaker 11: I mean, you know, everybody looks at media base. I'm
Speaker 11: also like a Billboard watch or two and we're three
Speaker 11: on Billboard, and I'm like, oh man, we're so close,
Speaker 11: Like it'd be cool to hit the number one on both.
Speaker 11: But I was talking to someboddies yesterday and they're just like, dude,
Speaker 11: just you're number one, Take your number one song, Take
Speaker 11: the number one. And it's just such a blessing to
Speaker 11: know too. Like we did it by ourselves, Like there
Speaker 11: wasn't no fancy strings being pulled, there wasn't big money
Speaker 11: pockets behind it. It was just like making take it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, dark political money.
Speaker 2: He didn't take it.
Speaker 11: No, he didn't make it. Man, it's just cool. And
Speaker 11: also I can just say it's the fans. You know,
Speaker 11: they drove this song. I think you know they've had
Speaker 11: like a billion views on TikTok and like have driven
Speaker 11: driven this song to number one. It's really them, and
Speaker 11: they've become a part of my life and part of
Speaker 11: my family. And it's really special to watch a song
Speaker 11: that so much to me, that I wrote about my
Speaker 11: wife and her dad, and now watching it mean so
Speaker 11: much to other people, and hearing people sing at shows,
Speaker 11: like I've been here for thirteen years, I've never had
Speaker 11: anybody sing along at a show, and so like my
Speaker 11: bass player, the first time that happened. He's been playing
Speaker 11: bass for me for eleven years, like right when I started.
Speaker 11: And I remember the first time it happened. It was
Speaker 11: last year and people started singing. I was like, dude,
Speaker 11: do you remember people singing at our show?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 11: Never, nobody's ever sang. I've been waiting on this for
Speaker 11: ta I was like, oh my goodness, we finally got
Speaker 11: a song that people know.
Speaker 2: Whenever you write a song, let's say four, your now
Speaker 2: wife and you play it for her, you're like, this
Speaker 2: was inspired When you write a song inspired by her dad?
Speaker 3: Are you ever You're like.
Speaker 2: Chuck, come in, I want you to listen to this
Speaker 2: song I wrote. How did that get back to him?
Speaker 2: Cause that's kind of you know, it's it's not awkward,
Speaker 2: but it's kind of I wrote the song about.
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, I just I didn't show him, you know.
Speaker 11: I showed her and it was like, hey, if you
Speaker 11: want to show your dad, you can, and I have
Speaker 11: this really special video of the first time, like, you know,
Speaker 11: we're getting married, and she said, Dad, I got the
Speaker 11: song we're gonna dance to. And I made, you know,
Speaker 11: the twenty nineteen versions, like this real up tempo thing.
Speaker 11: And we got married in twenty twenty one, so it
Speaker 11: was a couple of years later. I made a special
Speaker 11: wedding version just so she could dance to it with
Speaker 11: her dad and just me and a piano and a cello.
Speaker 11: And so she pulls it up in the kitchen and
Speaker 11: just starts dancing with her dad in the kitchen to it,
Speaker 11: and they're crying, and I like sneak my phone in
Speaker 11: on the side of it and watched, you know, get
Speaker 11: to watch them have this special moment of her and
Speaker 11: her dad. And that was really cool for me as
Speaker 11: a as a songwriter to be like, man, I've been
Speaker 11: writing songs since I was sixteen in my bedroom, and like,
Speaker 11: never thought I'd write the song that my wife and
Speaker 11: father in law would dance to, and not only that,
Speaker 11: but so many around the country at that time. It
Speaker 11: was just literally I did it for them, and we
Speaker 11: posted the video on our honeymoon. I'm just like, hey,
Speaker 11: if you like this wedding version, I'll put it out.
Speaker 11: And it was a Wednesday and we woke up the
Speaker 11: next morning with almost ten million views on the TikTok
Speaker 11: and I was just like, me and my wife were dancers,
Speaker 11: Like every record company is gonna be calling us now, baby,
Speaker 11: you know, and nobody did.
Speaker 1: We laughed now, but not so funny.
Speaker 11: So funny now now we're laughing because it's like, yeah,
Speaker 11: we freaking did it by ourselves. But back then it
Speaker 11: was like, oh man, everybody's calling and yeah nobody did.
Speaker 11: And just watched it happen. So many other dads use
Speaker 11: this song and it's so funny now. In meet and greets,
Speaker 11: I have these cowboys that come up and cowboy hats
Speaker 11: and real manly man and they're like crying. They're like,
Speaker 11: don't tell anybody. I'm crying. But that song right there
Speaker 11: really means a lot to me.
Speaker 2: Are you those dads matcha man? Ready savage?
Speaker 11: No?
Speaker 2: Everyone sounded like, yeah, have you played any any weddings
Speaker 2: this song?
Speaker 11: Any weddings I have? Yeah, there's some really awesome TikTok
Speaker 11: videos too, where I just kind of surprise some people.

Speaker 11: So we would show up and we got to play
Speaker 11: those and that was really cool. But those, those are
Speaker 11: some special moments because you just get to be a
Speaker 11: part of people's lives. And I just think that's what's
Speaker 11: so cool about country music is you know, music's made
Speaker 11: to make memories too, and man, when you can be
Speaker 11: a part of somebody's long, long term memory of getting married,
Speaker 11: you know, that's that's really special to me.
Speaker 2: I know, for a long time, you were booking all
Speaker 2: of your own shows too, like you were a DIY.
Speaker 2: And what's cool is you've learned how to do it.
Speaker 2: But now have there been people come along that are
Speaker 2: now joining the team.
Speaker 11: Yeah. So from twenty twenty to twenty four, I managed myself.
Speaker 11: I booked myself. That was my own record label. I
Speaker 11: don't know what I was doing.
Speaker 7: Would you talk like yourself though, or would you be
Speaker 7: like right question? Let me go check his calendar.
Speaker 11: Yeah, So what I'd do is I just had a
Speaker 11: Drew Baldridge Management email on my Instagram and I still
Speaker 11: do you know, it just says Drew Baldridge Management and
Speaker 11: Gmail and show inquiries would come through that and I'd
Speaker 11: just be like, thank you so much for being interested
Speaker 11: in Drew Baldridge. This is what we require, and so yeah,
Speaker 11: I'd just run that email, and you know when they
Speaker 11: would ask to get on the phone, that's when it
Speaker 11: would get hairy.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 11: Then I'd have to kill my tour managers, like, hey, man,
Speaker 11: do you care to call these people? This is what
Speaker 11: we need and this is what we're doing. But yeah,
Speaker 11: so I ran it by myself for four years. We
Speaker 11: got We did it all the way up to top
Speaker 11: ten alone with no manager, no agent, no record label,
Speaker 11: and then the last month I got a manager now,
Speaker 11: which is super awesome. I don't feel alone, and I
Speaker 11: have an awesome booking agent UTA where I'm not having
Speaker 11: to you know, run all those phone calls. I got
Speaker 11: a I got a son, I got a wife. When
Speaker 11: I'm gone all the time, then i come home and
Speaker 11: I'm on the phone till nine o'clock at night. My
Speaker 11: wife wants to kill me halftime probably you know I
Speaker 11: would if it was reversed. And so getting a team
Speaker 11: to start helping this is awesome, but it's also like
Speaker 11: I've been doing this alone. So I'm like it's really
Speaker 11: hard to give it up, you know. I'm like, no,
Speaker 11: you don't know. You might not know what you're doing,
Speaker 11: but I know what I'm doing, you know, And it's like, no,
Speaker 11: I'm finally starting to feel like, oh, I can just relax, Like,
Speaker 11: oh my goodness, we're about to have a number one.
Speaker 11: I actually have a team that knows what they're doing.
Speaker 11: They know more than I do. I'm just you know,
Speaker 11: it's been it's been a journey for sure.
Speaker 3: I'm saying a bunch of shows pop up, like more shows.
Speaker 11: Yeah. Man, we just announced a tour just last week
Speaker 11: where we're gonna go out and kind of celebrate this
Speaker 11: She's Somebody's Daughter, journey to Number one, and and you

Speaker 11: you know, I was I've been touring for you know,
Speaker 11: twelve years, eleven years, and you know, just now having
Speaker 11: a people sing along. So it's really nerve wracking, like
Speaker 11: headlining your own tour. I'm sure if you talk to
Speaker 11: artists that come in here, you're like, man, I just
Speaker 11: hope I sell one hundred tickets. Like you want everybody
Speaker 11: to win. You want the person that's the club that's
Speaker 11: having you there. You want them to make money. You
Speaker 11: want to not be broke, and you want the fans
Speaker 11: to enjoy it, not come out because I played so
Speaker 11: many shows where there's like three people you know, and
Speaker 11: you're just like, hi, guys, this is for you. You know.
Speaker 11: I guess you.
Speaker 3: Learn every one of their names.
Speaker 11: Yeah you do. And but you know what's cool now
Speaker 11: is people come out and they have their backyard shirts on.
Speaker 11: And that's what's been really special is you know that
Speaker 11: says Baldridge and Bondfire's what we called the tour and
Speaker 11: they have their Baldridge and Bonfire shirt on thems like
Speaker 11: you're here when nobody was. You know, it's just a
Speaker 11: different kind of bond with these people.
Speaker 3: Can I suggest a song called He's Somebody's Son.
Speaker 2: I had a lot of people ask I mean it
Speaker 2: just all to be fair, go, yeah, he's some mootist son.
Speaker 11: Didn't have the sing, doesn't doesn't have a sing.
Speaker 3: You even heard all the lyrics, Yet haters you write
Speaker 3: that bring it back.
Speaker 2: I really get in touch with my personal side, and
Speaker 2: you guys are like it doesn't hit the same. Yeah, Drew,
Speaker 2: I'm happy for you, man.
Speaker 11: Well, thank you, and you you've been such a big
Speaker 11: part of this too, Like allow me to come on
Speaker 11: here when you know I don't really have.
Speaker 2: Your a total loser. When I found you, I was.
Speaker 11: Like, what do you need, sir? But no, this means
Speaker 11: a lot. Since I moved to Nashville, IVE always dreamed
Speaker 11: of being on the Bobby Bone Show. This has been
Speaker 11: a special moment for me to come in here. And
Speaker 11: you guys don't have to allow me to come in
Speaker 11: here and tell my story. And Bob you've told my
Speaker 11: story so many times as so many of your listeners.
Speaker 11: I'm just very thankful and humbled, and you know I've
Speaker 11: had deals and I've lost them, and I don't take
Speaker 11: anything for granted anymore. So like, this is special being
Speaker 11: in here with you guys.
Speaker 2: Today we're gonna play She's Somebody's Daughter. Do you want
Speaker 2: to play like twelve times on repeat?
Speaker 11: Please? Please? At least you know, once every hour. There
Speaker 11: we go every morning.
Speaker 2: Drew Baldridge, She's Somebody's daughter. Drew, Congratulations on whatever run
Speaker 2: this is. I hope you get your number one. That's amazing.
Speaker 2: Whatever you do next, but don't fall into that trap
Speaker 2: off going. Okay, now I got to do it again.
Speaker 2: There'll be a time for that this week.
Speaker 11: Let's thank you because it's so it's easy to stress
Speaker 11: out because everybody's like, man, what's next, Hey, you're ringing
Speaker 11: the bell once, how do you do it again? I'm like,
Speaker 11: I don't freaking know. I'll be honest, I don't know
Speaker 11: how we're gonna do it again, but we're gonna try
Speaker 11: and and so you can get caught in that trap,
Speaker 11: but I'm really just trying to enjoy it. Next week,
Speaker 11: I took vacation, me and my wife. We're gonna go
Speaker 11: to the beach for four days and just try to,
Speaker 11: you know, if we're number one great. If not, we're
Speaker 11: just gonna celebrate the journey of this of like, hey,
Speaker 11: we did this together.
Speaker 2: After you get back stress out exactly, take a few
Speaker 2: days you just enjoy it.
Speaker 7: Are you able to really disconnect?
Speaker 6: Like do you think when you go on vacation next week,
Speaker 6: like you'll be able to truly unplug.
Speaker 11: I don't know, I'll be honest, I don't know. My
Speaker 11: wife has already said you got you got to, but
Speaker 11: she was like, you're gonna be on the phone so
Speaker 11: much with people saying congrats, congrats, and so I was like,
Speaker 11: at least that's better than like them saying what's next,
Speaker 11: what's next? You know, they're like what are you doing now?
Speaker 11: And so I think there's gonna have to come where
Speaker 11: I just shut my phone off to really disconnect and
Speaker 11: just enjoy it, because already it's getting to the point
Speaker 11: where I'm getting a lot of text of congrats and
Speaker 11: I feel bad I'm not being able to respond.
Speaker 3: To Johnny Come lately is what I call them.
Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm not trying to do that, but but like
Speaker 11: I said, next week, I'm really gonna try. I'm really
Speaker 11: gonna try because my wife deserves that too, and so
Speaker 11: does my son and so, and I feel like we
Speaker 11: do too, how busy we've been. So I'm going to
Speaker 11: try to shut it off. But we'll see. I mean,
Speaker 11: it's also fun to get congrats from buddies and and
Speaker 11: I've never had really anybody congratulate me about stuff.
Speaker 3: It's just sad.
Speaker 2: He's like, no one's ever really liked me.
Speaker 3: That sounds like I would say.
Speaker 11: Wow, I just mean about you know, did sound terrible?
Speaker 2: Then I'm going to do you a special favor and
Speaker 2: I'm not going to text your congrats.
Speaker 11: Oh well thanks you tell him now.
Speaker 2: Though, No, just a little gift from me to him.
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna ignore him for a while. As everybody
Speaker 2: else is like, you're the man, I'll be like, you
Speaker 2: know what, I'll take three steps back.
Speaker 11: Tell me the next week.
Speaker 2: Yeah, then I'll be like, what's next.
Speaker 3: There we go.
Speaker 2: That's cool, man, Congratulations. I'm sure I'll talk to you soon.
Speaker 2: But yeah, you are an example of what I think
Speaker 2: a lot of artists are going to look at and go, dang,
Speaker 2: I'm thinking about giving it up. But they get to
Speaker 2: see your story because you also had those thoughts, as
Speaker 2: you said, and you did, and you found a way
Speaker 2: in the ways that other people are going to find
Speaker 2: are not going to be the same. But it does
Speaker 2: show people if you don't quit, you work hard and
Speaker 2: you strategize, and then you modify your strategy constantly, like
Speaker 2: there is a way.
Speaker 11: There is a way. And I think that's what's been
Speaker 11: one of the most cool things out of this whole
Speaker 11: thing is so many artists have reached out and be like, dude,
Speaker 11: this is awesome, Like can we go get breakfast? I'm like,
Speaker 11: one hundred percent, let's go do that. Cause there's so
Speaker 11: many great artists in Nashville that come here, they get
Speaker 11: a record deal, and then their first song doesn't work,
Speaker 11: or their second one, then they don't get to go
Speaker 11: to radio again, or they're just dropped or they're lost,
Speaker 11: or they become songwriters and they still have that artist drive.
Speaker 11: And it's been awesome to give some people some hope
Speaker 11: of saying, like, no, man, you have the right song
Speaker 11: that you believe in that you'll put you know, or
Speaker 11: give it a real shot, a real chance, put your
Speaker 11: whole heart into it. It can work. And that's what's
Speaker 11: I think so cool and so cool for our community
Speaker 11: and our whole town and even radio it's awesome, like, hey,
Speaker 11: you have a song, it's working and and people love it,
Speaker 11: radio will play it, and you just got to believe
Speaker 11: in it and and you know, take a whole year
Speaker 11: of your life and you know, we send it to
Speaker 11: radio August twenty first of last year. So it's been
Speaker 11: almost a full year. But but it's been fun to
Speaker 11: have a lot of other other artists reach out and
Speaker 11: be able to give some some love to them.
Speaker 2: At Drew Baldridge Music, you can finally link there for
Speaker 2: Last toward eight's you can just I don't get I
Speaker 2: don't guess you get paid for Instagram though, do you?

Speaker 3: That was awesome, And so they're remaking it.
Speaker 2: And Jenna Ortega who was Wednesday right on Netflix, so
Speaker 2: she's in it, and she was like she was scared
Speaker 2: of everything, including the original Beetlejuice movie. Was anybody as
Speaker 2: a kid scared of the Beetle Juice movie? That freak
Speaker 2: anybody out? Now?
Speaker 3: That was funny me too? And I freaked out at
Speaker 3: every movie. Now?
Speaker 2: Was there a movie as a kid that probably freaked
Speaker 2: you out more than it should? Because mine was Grimlins.
Speaker 2: The first time I watched Grimlins, I didn't want to
Speaker 2: feed anything, humans, animals, anything near midnight. That movie freaked
Speaker 2: me out so bad that I didn't like scary movie.
Speaker 2: They still don't like scary movies. No horror for me,
Speaker 2: but Grimlins was the one that scarred me as a kid.
Speaker 2: And when we had dogs, I would the closer I
Speaker 2: got to midnight, I don't want to feed them, just
Speaker 2: just in case they did. What the Gremlins did, which
Speaker 2: they turned from Grimlins like what were they called it?
Speaker 5: Guys, the gizmuch would turn into like crazy.
Speaker 3: They haven't remade that movie because that was that's pretty good. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so that mine's Gremlins. Amy, any movie is a kid
Speaker 3: that scared you?
Speaker 6: Candy Man, that's a real scary one. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 6: it was scary, so it should have scarred me.
Speaker 3: But went, my money, is scary.
Speaker 6: Like go in a bathroom with a mirror and you know,
Speaker 6: and then of course my sister and her friends they
Speaker 6: would do that and be like Amy, Common would be
Speaker 6: like say, candy Man in the mirror, and it just
Speaker 6: freaked me out. Anytime I would have to go to
Speaker 6: the bathroom after that.
Speaker 7: In the dark.
Speaker 5: What do you say candy Man like three times and
Speaker 5: you turn or something? Don't do it.
Speaker 2: Let's watch any movie as a kid that there was
Speaker 2: a couple scar the stuff.
Speaker 3: Oh that was the worst movie. He has scary it's yogurt.
Speaker 9: Hold on, hold on, you're telling me, as a six
Speaker 9: or seven year old you watch that, you wouldn't be
Speaker 9: terrified to eat yogurt and that like you, I thought.
Speaker 3: You are listeners. The quick story of what this stuff is
Speaker 3: about the stuff. Is the scariest movie of all time.
Speaker 9: And it is like this yogurt and the government makes
Speaker 9: it to take over your body, and it's in this
Speaker 9: one town and these two kids. This one kid's like,
Speaker 9: I'm not going to eat it, and his whole family's like,
Speaker 9: you will eat the yogurt and he's like putting it
Speaker 9: down the toilet and it comes alive and tries to
Speaker 9: eat you.
Speaker 3: Terrible fighting as a kid. Another one, Children of the Corn, Oh,
Speaker 3: that was legitimately scary. My goodness. Anytime we'd drive my corn, I'm.
Speaker 9: Oh, go go goat, so scary all corn. You're out
Speaker 9: nightmare on Elm.
Speaker 2: Streetcar And I would say those were actually scary movie.
Speaker 3: I'm just telling you, you don't. Juice to her was like,
Speaker 3: I don't watch it to freak me out.
Speaker 2: Gremlins to me, I don't watch it a freaking out
Speaker 2: like yours are like normal, healthy, you shouldn't be watching
Speaker 2: those as kids anyway.
Speaker 3: Well, Keith may just watch them.
Speaker 7: I'm trying to think of a normal teeth.
Speaker 3: Didn't teeth Keith for you.
Speaker 2: You guys, remember Christine is scary.
Speaker 3: It is Stephen King movie and it.
Speaker 5: Was like an old fifties car that like came alive
Speaker 5: and it would start with like an oldie song like
Speaker 5: twisted in Shout, and then the lights came on and
Speaker 5: it killed people.
Speaker 2: Dude. That freaked me out. Man.
Speaker 3: The car would just drive on its own. Dude, just
Speaker 3: run over people. It's like yogurt, yogurt, No way Morgan anything.
Speaker 1: Yeah, mine was Casper.
Speaker 3: See now we're talking the friendly ghost.
Speaker 12: He yeah, man, what are you still a ghost? So
Speaker 12: after I watched it, I thought there were ghosts everywhere,
Speaker 12: and I thought a Castro is gonna pop up every
Speaker 12: time I was walking around the house, and I was like,
Speaker 12: is there Casper?
Speaker 1: Is this real? I thought it was legit?
Speaker 3: How friendly is he really?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: He's friendly moosedly, but he can get anywhere.
Speaker 3: Completely agree.
Speaker 2: I felt on a Casper Raymond anybody with the freak
Speaker 2: Jaz as a kid, mine's kind of embarrassing.
Speaker 3: But Jumanji. Now we're talking with.
Speaker 13: The Ouiji board, and my mom told me how evil
Speaker 13: it was, and she said, if your friends ever tried
Speaker 13: to do that Ouiji board, don't because that's when the
Speaker 13: evil spirits come out. And so my friend was super popular.
Speaker 13: It made it in Middle school. So they would all
Speaker 13: grab a wiji board and I just go in the
Speaker 13: other room. I told mom, I wasn't a part of it.
Speaker 3: They did it, so.
Speaker 2: You'd let yourself out, you'd show yourself out if they wiji.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was very terrified of it. We never wiji boarded.
Speaker 3: We were too scared of that stuff in general, Like,
Speaker 3: we didn't do that. But it's funny that Ray would
Speaker 3: leave the room as his friends did it.
Speaker 2: Thank you guys.
Speaker 3: You guys are all normal, Ray Morgan, We're all screwed up.
Speaker 2: That's true. We let normal movies mess with their heads.
Speaker 2: Let's play loser or not a loser. I will tell
Speaker 2: you a story from the news. You tell me if
Speaker 2: you think this person is a loser or not a loser.
Speaker 2: So this guy's getting married. They have the ceremony, they go,
Speaker 2: they have the first dance, and he realizes that in
Speaker 2: the first dance the band they hired the singer, because
Speaker 2: again at the ceremony, you don't really see if it's
Speaker 2: a DJ or the band. You don't see them because
Speaker 2: you're doing the ceremony, not the reception. His wife put
Speaker 2: take care of all the music. The singer in the
Speaker 2: band is his ex girlfriend from fifteen years ago. Right,
Speaker 2: it wasn't like the one that was right before this wife.
Speaker 2: It wasn't like this ex girlfriend plotted to get into
Speaker 2: the wedding. Somehow his new wife had booked the band
Speaker 2: and he didn't see her until okay, let's walk in
Speaker 2: the bride groom and he's like, it's my ex girlfriend singing.
Speaker 2: So it wasn't comfortable with the X being there. He
Speaker 2: after the dance goes up to the band and says, hey,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna need you guys to leave. Lizar As she
Speaker 2: didn't understand and why he cared so much because it
Speaker 2: was fifteen years ago when they dated decade and a
Speaker 2: half fifteen years ago. The band left the venue helped
Speaker 2: them get a DJ pretty quickly, which they had to
Speaker 2: pay money for as well. They had to pay the
Speaker 2: band out as well. But the guy was like, you
Speaker 2: need to go loser, not a loser. Amy has jumped
Speaker 2: in early on this one. She's locked in with loser.
Speaker 3: Go ahead, loser, Okay.
Speaker 6: What yeah, because like just enjoy your evening. It was
Speaker 6: fifteen years ago, like move on with the night, Like
Speaker 6: why cause this disruption and then have to pay more
Speaker 6: money and then have the venue scramble to get a DJ.
Speaker 7: I mean, just I don't know. I don't see what
Speaker 7: the big deal is.
Speaker 2: If I'm the wife, and this is why I'm going
Speaker 2: to sign him as a loser. If I'm the wife
Speaker 2: and I see him get so upset about an X,
Speaker 2: I'm thinking he's still in love with.
Speaker 3: That ex good point like this is not otherwise who cares?
Speaker 10: That's thought thee okay, and I'll let you guys have
Speaker 10: your piece. But I'm going loser because if I see
Speaker 10: him get triggered, that means an emotion has set forth
Speaker 10: an action, which is exactly what happened. Why is he
Speaker 10: getting emotional over somebody from fifteen years ago unless he
Speaker 10: still feels extremely hurt or still in love with them.
Speaker 10: And I'm upset if I'm the wife, and I'm going loser.
Speaker 2: And even if you feel that way, because you're gonna
Speaker 2: look like you have to play a cool you can't.
Speaker 3: You can't do what you just did. You're a loser.
Speaker 3: We got two losers in lunchbox.
Speaker 9: No, this dude's a hero. He's saving his wife from
Speaker 9: the awkward encounter. He is trying to make sure that
Speaker 9: his wife knows she is the only woman on his
Speaker 9: special day.
Speaker 3: The wife didn't care for that. You don't want that.
Speaker 9: That girl trying to weasel her way in saying, oh, yeah,
Speaker 9: I'm gonna try to ruin the wedding and be a
Speaker 9: bad singer, have bad music, mess up the soul.
Speaker 3: Terrible.
Speaker 9: Women are spiteful, man, Women are vengeful. Women are crazy.
Speaker 9: You don't know what she could do, and you want
Speaker 9: it to be all about the bride, and you don't
