Speaker 1: It's the Best Bits of the Week with Morgan Number two.
Speaker 1: What is up, y'all? Happy weekend. I'm so excited to
Speaker 1: be hanging out with y'all. In case you don't know,
Speaker 1: it's Morgan here and we are breaking down some of
Speaker 1: the segments from the show this week. And this part
Speaker 1: is where we share all the bits and the actual
Speaker 1: things that happened. But Part one is actually my favorite
Speaker 1: part of doing this podcast. It's where I bring on
Speaker 1: a show member and we talk about a whole lot
Speaker 1: of things. And this weekend I brought on Lunchbox. Not
Speaker 1: only did I quiz him on emojis that he should
Speaker 1: know the actual meanings of, but I also shared some
Speaker 1: dating stuff with him and he could not believe that
Speaker 1: I stopped talking to this guy on a dating app
Speaker 1: because of something he said. He just was like, there's
Speaker 1: no way. And he also had to do some math
Speaker 1: and that didn't go over very well either. So make
Speaker 1: sure to check out Part one of Best Bits. I
Speaker 1: promise it'll be your favorite. Part two. One of our
Speaker 1: listeners is a behavior therapist and she called into the
Speaker 1: show because she wanted to give some perspective on Lunchbox
Speaker 1: and hopefully convinced Bobby to do a contract with Lunchbox
Speaker 1: to make him a nicer human being. Yeah, it was
Speaker 1: a whole thing, and that basically whenever great on our
Speaker 1: Facebook page as far as engagement, everybody was having a
Speaker 1: lot of opinions on the matter. But you can hear
Speaker 1: the phone call that happened that sparked this whole conversation
Speaker 1: right here. Number seven on phone now is Christoph who
Speaker 1: is a behavioral analyst. Hi Christa, good morning, Hi, good morey.
Speaker 1: Hey what is a behavioral analysts? Like? What do you do? Specifically?
Speaker 1: I primarily work with kids with autism or other disabilities
Speaker 1: down syndrome, oppositional defiance disorder, but especially we create contingencies
Speaker 1: to increase appropriate behaviors, decrease inappropriate behaviors, and build skills
Speaker 1: alongside that. I could do some of that here, increase
Speaker 1: having these guys increase appropriate, decrease inappropriate for us. Yeah, Christa,
Speaker 1: you hear of the show. What would you like to
Speaker 1: comment about when you hear it as a behavioral analyst? Well,
Speaker 1: I think every day when I'm listening the Lunchbox would
Speaker 1: probably benefit from some sort of a behavior contract to
Speaker 1: help increase some of the appropriate behaviors would like to
Speaker 1: see or decrease some of the negative statements. So a
Speaker 1: contract would be like a literal contract where he signs
Speaker 1: an agreement that says, if I'm a jerk, like for example,
Speaker 1: Abby who loved to sing, she's not trying to really
Speaker 1: make it as a same amount, but he's rude to her.
Speaker 1: He's like, you'll never make it you. But if he
Speaker 1: does something like that, we have a contract where he
Speaker 1: has to like pay me five bucks or something something
Speaker 1: like that, where there's a penalty. So the first thing
Speaker 1: we like to focus on is the reinforcement of the
Speaker 1: appropriate behaviors. So what if there are none of those yet?
Speaker 1: Then he gets nothing? Okay, But what makes her the
Speaker 1: right the sayer of what's right? Well, a degree doesn't
Speaker 1: tell you what's right and wrong. Everybody has a different
Speaker 1: opinion what's right and wrong. Because she says it's right
Speaker 1: doesn't mean it's right that it's a matter of opinion.
Speaker 1: Her job is nothing but opinions. However, a behavior contract
Speaker 1: is much more effective when both parties, the one giving
Speaker 1: the reinforcement and the lunchbox would be the client in
Speaker 1: this situation, are in agreement of So what could I
Speaker 1: put as a reward for him? I'm anxious. I mean
Speaker 1: I'm eager, anxious to do it now. I'm like, let's
Speaker 1: go to stroll. This could be cool. Yeah, Like, what's
Speaker 1: a reward I could put for him in this contract? Well?
Speaker 1: What is Lunchbox's primary reinforcement? I think we all know
Speaker 1: what that money? Ticket? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, financial? Yeah, money.
Speaker 1: He could spend the wheel, he could get something in return.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's got listeners out here buying him two
Speaker 1: hundred dollar watches. I'm sure we could figure something out. Well, No,
Speaker 1: you tried to be an angel on a tree, a
Speaker 1: charity tree at Christmas, and so I'm on bottom former. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: they didn't a listener, did right, big teamer? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: hear you. Okay, So what if we did this? If
Speaker 1: can you do it per day? Let's say Lunchbox is
Speaker 1: a good day where he does, he gets more dings
Speaker 1: and ants, and then he gets to spend the well
Speaker 1: at the end of the day. Does that work? Can
Speaker 1: you do it like macro instead of micro a dollar
Speaker 1: every time? Could you do it like that? Absolutely? And
Speaker 1: I mean you could do two parts of it. You
Speaker 1: could have the reinforcement part where he gets money or
Speaker 1: spin if he does something good that we've all identified,
Speaker 1: you know, and explicitly described what that goal is. But
Speaker 1: then you could do a response cost also, so if
Speaker 1: he has a negative statement or a rude statement, he
Speaker 1: could lose the opportunity. So I like it. We'll draw
Speaker 1: this up. So, what though, would be a punishment that
Speaker 1: we could do for an adult man who doesn't have
Speaker 1: to listen to her talk for longer. We'll just put
Speaker 1: you all that would be negative, right, that'd go down
Speaker 1: the negative? Yeah, go ahead. I'm sorry, Christa. Well, I
Speaker 1: mean I think I would like lunch's inbox and our
Speaker 1: lunchbox's input. He would he be interested in earning money
Speaker 1: for appropriate behaviors? No, no, but my you know she's
Speaker 1: asking you a question. Yeah, I would love that, but
Speaker 1: you don't determine what my behavior is appropriate. Would a contract,
Speaker 1: you would agree, but you would agree to the terms
Speaker 1: of the contract. We're not forcing anything on you. We
Speaker 1: together would go, we all agree. If you do this,
Speaker 1: you're rewarded. If you do this, you're punished. Like if
Speaker 1: I give my opinions, I'm rewarded. If I don't give
Speaker 1: my opinions, I'm a punishment Kristad that is not seen
Speaker 1: as unethical, like can we lock them in something that'd
Speaker 1: be cool with snakes. I mean, you guys could come
Speaker 1: up with whatever you want. You could spind the wheel
Speaker 1: of you know, high items. You could you could come
Speaker 1: up with the next a second wheel negative consequence, Yes,
Speaker 1: the Bizarro wheel where it's all bad stuff spicy stuff. Wow, okay,
Speaker 1: I Hey, Krista, thank you very much for this call.
Speaker 1: This has has really put a lot of thoughts in
Speaker 1: the old brainer. I'm thinking about some stuff. Maybe a
Speaker 1: couple days lunchbocks will address the contract yer. I'll write
Speaker 1: something up. If you like it, we'll agree to it.
Speaker 1: If not, we'll move on. I will check it out,
Speaker 1: see if my pen has any ink in it. Hey,
Speaker 1: we'll do docu sign. All right, Christa, thank you really
Speaker 1: appreciate you listen to the show. I hope you have
Speaker 1: an awesome day. And I the line of work you're in,
Speaker 1: it takes somebody with a special heart to do that,
Speaker 1: so we also appreciate you doing that as well. Of course,
Speaker 1: Love you guys. All right by Christe. It's the best
Speaker 1: bits up the week with Morgan Number two Taylor Hicks
Speaker 1: stop by the studio this week. And you may remember
Speaker 1: him from winning American Idol back in two thousand and six,
Speaker 1: and Bobby was a huge fan of him then and
Speaker 1: still is today, and so he was totally geeking out
Speaker 1: during this interview and it was super fun to watch
Speaker 1: not only the conversation that happened, but also hear about
Speaker 1: what Taylor's been up to post American Idol. And he
Speaker 1: also performed his new song Porch Swing, which you won't
Speaker 1: get to hear on the podcast, but you can go
Speaker 1: watch it at Bobby Bones dot com number six. Waiting
Speaker 1: since two thousand and six to do this next interview,
Speaker 1: that's a long time. I've been a Taylor Hicks fan
Speaker 1: and cement that I saw his pretty facing, oh abnormally
Speaker 1: prettymature gray hair, and I'm asking about that like he
Speaker 1: was in his twenties, he was already gray on American
Speaker 1: Idol way back in the day. But man, it's soul patrol.
Speaker 1: Like I was in the group, I voted for him.
Speaker 1: But the thing about Taylor Hicks is like way back
Speaker 1: in the day, he discovered he had perfect pitch. When
Speaker 1: he was able to recognize the pitches of random things
Speaker 1: like a car, driving by. We'll get into that hopefully
Speaker 1: in a second. He's such a good singer. He's got
Speaker 1: this new song called port Swing. So you guys can

Speaker 1: this music out. It's great. It's this soulful southern thing
Speaker 1: that you got going on. And I just have really
Speaker 1: just been waiting on a really beautiful moment in time.
Speaker 1: And I get woken up by all of these amazing
Speaker 1: texts right before Christmas, and Bobby's talking about being a
Speaker 1: fan of you know, of me, and uh, the next

Speaker 1: household all over the country, and I was like a
Speaker 1: porch swing because I grew up on a porch swing.
Speaker 1: So there's just a lot of things that happened around
Speaker 1: that particular centerpiece. And uh, this one's about love and

Speaker 1: I worked on American Idol for four years. I worked
Speaker 1: as the main like on camera mentor and taught him
Speaker 1: or whatever you do on that show. You know, I
Speaker 1: record ten hours and they use twenty minute, no, twenty
Speaker 1: seconds of it, right, you know, this is kind of
Speaker 1: how it worked over there. Um, So do people because
Speaker 1: people will come up to me and be like, I
Speaker 1: know you from somewhere because I'm just randomly on things,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I know you, and it's weird to go
Speaker 1: you probably know me from this. Do you get there
Speaker 1: with people? It may be this, it could be the show,
Speaker 1: the food show, it could be Do people come up
Speaker 1: to you and not know where they know you, but
Speaker 1: they know you and they're like, are you my mailman?
Speaker 1: Does that ever happen. Oh yeah, And how do you
Speaker 1: handle that if somebody goes, I know you from somewhere,
Speaker 1: what do you say? Well, sometimes you have fun with
Speaker 1: it and you're like, I don't know, you know, what
Speaker 1: what do you think? And so I mean And then
Speaker 1: finally usually I was on idol and they're like, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah they said that to me. They're like, oh, were
Speaker 1: you on Judge Judy? No, I wasn't. I guess it
Speaker 1: wasn't me. You were thinking about once I want to
Speaker 1: get ice cream into place And she was like she
Speaker 1: pulled up her phone and I Sawry Google me and
Speaker 1: she was like, no, that's not him, and you should
Speaker 1: put the phone down. Real It was like a really
Speaker 1: good professional picture. I guess it looks like crap that day. Look,
Speaker 1: Taylor Hicks is here. Um, you're so good that harmonica
Speaker 1: that you have? What what? What key is that? Listen
Speaker 1: the song e? I have an E and then I've
Speaker 1: got probably twenty different keys they got from Blues Traveler.
Speaker 1: He ain'ty good? Love him? Yeah, he's different stylistically. He
Speaker 1: probably one of the more stylistic harmonica players in the world. Um,
Speaker 1: he's a good friend and uh, oh, you know him. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was just asking as harmonica playing because he wears
Speaker 1: the vest all the harmonicas, and do you have one
Speaker 1: of those great and a great writer too. I mean,
Speaker 1: let's not Forgod. I mean, you know he wrote the
Speaker 1: Hook and you know some of those really iconic hits
Speaker 1: you know of the early nineties. I was wanted to
Speaker 1: play harmonica, Taylor. I'm gonna tell you the little story
Speaker 1: about me playing harmonica. I always wanted to play in Eddie,
Speaker 1: who is the other half of my comedy duo, our
Speaker 1: comedy due the Raging Idiots. He goes, so you can
Speaker 1: play hermonica. I said, no, I can't, because they're good.
Speaker 1: He goes, no, no no, no, no, here's the easy way
Speaker 1: that they don't do because they're good, but you can
Speaker 1: do because you're crappy. So we I think we played.
Speaker 1: What song? Did we play? It was like an old
Speaker 1: eighty was it? That's what I like about you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: really know how to do. So he just gave me
Speaker 1: the harmonica in the key and he goes just blowing
Speaker 1: and out during the key and it'll match the song
Speaker 1: completely and everybody'll think your harmonica player. And I was like,
Speaker 1: all right, let's give it a running. We're on stage
Speaker 1: and finally like five thousand people and I've never played
Speaker 1: harmonica in my life except for just going that right
Speaker 1: with harmonica, and so the whole song isn't whatever key
Speaker 1: it was in Eddie hands me Harmonica goes trust me
Speaker 1: on this, and there's the harmonica part in that song
Speaker 1: where so I'm just not really I'm having like a
Speaker 1: seizure or something up there because I'm just I don't
Speaker 1: even know how to breathe. And I put the harmonica
Speaker 1: lay in the crowds going nuts because they think I'll
Speaker 1: just play. I just rocked the harmonica and I was like,
Speaker 1: thank you, And I retired that day playing harmonica one
Speaker 1: to Oh but that's not real. Well that's not real harmonica.
Speaker 1: Like where did you start? When did you start playing harmonica?
Speaker 1: M I probably I started playing when I was about
Speaker 1: fourteen or fifteen, But interestingly enough, I was I was
Speaker 1: an only child, and I bought my first harmonica at
Speaker 1: the best summer flea market in Alabama. I would not
Speaker 1: suggest buying your first harmonica a flea market. By the way,
Speaker 1: what did you catch what disease going? I can't say.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to displose that that's for the next single,
Speaker 1: but UM the uh. So I ended up actually playing
Speaker 1: off of UM very kind of non traditional sounds. So
Speaker 1: I would like go by behind the air conditioner and
Speaker 1: I would find the key that the air conditioner was in,
Speaker 1: and I would play off of the air conditioner so
Speaker 1: that the air conditioner was was like, oh you know,
Speaker 1: then there wasn't anybody around to play music, So I
Speaker 1: would play off of air conditioners, airplanes, eighteen wheeler rigs
Speaker 1: that would go down the road. How are you hearing keys? Though?
Speaker 1: Where did you learn music or didn'taturally come to you?
Speaker 1: You know, I think it's just, you know, it's an
Speaker 1: ear thing for me. You know, that's all of these
Speaker 1: sounds like that's kind of I didn't have a guitar
Speaker 1: or anything, so that's kind of how I learned. It's
Speaker 1: just very nontric And I would play off to the
Speaker 1: radio too, But if I if I didn't have a
Speaker 1: radio round, I would do UM. I would play off
Speaker 1: of mostly air conditioners. So you trains are usually air
Speaker 1: conditioners are shameless plug but they're in a they're in
Speaker 1: a I would you would listen to the radio, I
Speaker 1: just play along with songs like a drummer would, Yes,
Speaker 1: but you would. But the thing about harmonica those is
Speaker 1: you have to um, you know, you have to have
Speaker 1: be in the right key. So you have to think
Speaker 1: about harmonica playing. Is chromatic? Is the big fat one
Speaker 1: that Stevie Wonder used where you could click in and
Speaker 1: out of the keys. Um, but just you know, just
Speaker 1: kind of traditional harmonica playing. Um, you have a lot
Speaker 1: of keys. So that's the reason why we were talking
Speaker 1: about paper with the belts and stuff, is because you
Speaker 1: have to find the key. So show up you have
Speaker 1: what do you have there in your hand? Um? I
Speaker 1: just want to hear the difference. So this is an E.
Speaker 1: I definitely got the blues from that. Let me hear
Speaker 1: what I have now? Then this is this is an
Speaker 1: E flash. Now I'm even sadder. That sounds like rose. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So as a harmonica player, do you have to learn
Speaker 1: Do you ever learn melodies and play like a melody
Speaker 1: of a song or are you kind of just jumping
Speaker 1: around with like a jazz player. Well, it's kind of
Speaker 1: like a jazz thing for me. Yeah, sometimes I'll have
Speaker 1: to find um, you know, like we're gonna love Let
Speaker 1: me do some of those lines. Um and you know, hey,
Speaker 1: hey man, I want to you know, those kinds of lines.
Speaker 1: But for me, I just kind of dig it because
Speaker 1: I'm singing. I kind of just dig into the solo
Speaker 1: a little bit. I wanted to wear one of those
Speaker 1: things when you put it on your neck with a
Speaker 1: harmonica in it and do a whole show with them
Speaker 1: and never actually play it. And many people think the
Speaker 1: whole time I'm gonna go to it, but I never did.
Speaker 1: I was like, wouldn't that be hilarious. I just wear
Speaker 1: it the whole time, big harmonica and never even address it.
Speaker 1: And then I'm like, thank you guys, good night. That's
Speaker 1: my kind of comedy right there. You know, I've all
Speaker 1: I've actually thought about, like like doing having a giant
Speaker 1: one and then having a little bitty one like right here,
Speaker 1: so it makes it looks like we're playing like I'll
Speaker 1: see you put a little room behind it. We can't see,
Speaker 1: and you just kind of come out and waddle with
Speaker 1: it like it and you put on those big sunglasses
Speaker 1: at the same time that are oversized, and it'll be awesome. See. Okay, look,
Speaker 1: We've done it all. Taylor Hicks. He's got a new
Speaker 1: song out today called port Swing. That's amazing that we're
Speaker 1: also going to feature in a national countdown. You played
Speaker 1: the second song, Uh, let me see title, six Strings
Speaker 1: and diamond Ooh, I'm close. Diamond rings is what's it called?
Speaker 1: Six strings and strings? And oh I had it, you did.
Speaker 1: I thought it was like it was. They're hard on
Speaker 1: the back, six strings, hard on diamond rings, diamond rings.
Speaker 1: You just said the word never mind. Okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: Also I'll say too, both songs, they're sort of like
Speaker 1: both of them. I was picturing the whole story the
Speaker 1: whole time you were singing, because and I was following
Speaker 1: you along. I don't know if I had the narrative
Speaker 1: right in my head. But what's funny is quincidentally, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna follow him along after this see where he lives,
Speaker 1: so control later, right, okay? Quickly uncomfortable questions from listeners.
Speaker 1: Question number one, how old was Taylor when he was
Speaker 1: on American Idol? Because your hair was already great, you
Speaker 1: went great early high sixteen? You gray at sixteen. I
Speaker 1: had people pluck them out of my head in class
Speaker 1: actually because your parent would probably. Yeah, my whole family's
Speaker 1: like gray early. Yeah, and did you ever think I'm
Speaker 1: gonna dye my hair. No, although they wanted me too
Speaker 1: on idol. I mean they were they were like they
Speaker 1: were like you should. And then I know. Then I
Speaker 1: had a manager that at one point in time, Jordan Felstein,
Speaker 1: who who was um Maroon fives manager passed, loved him
Speaker 1: to death. He and this is a great idea too,
Speaker 1: and I mean, I guess I'll give it away. But
Speaker 1: he wanted me to die at Pink for October for
Speaker 1: breast cancer awareness, which I'm totally down to do it.
Speaker 1: And it would be easier to do because it's already light. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like two shades from Pink already, so you know, I
Speaker 1: mean that's but no, they wanted me to diet on
Speaker 1: on idol, but I just I didn't want to do it.
Speaker 1: Question two with Taylor Hicks singing my wedding for twenty grand,
Speaker 1: anything's possible. Any day, that's possible. Okay, I have to
Speaker 1: go through my agent. But how tall is Taylor Hicks
Speaker 1: six one? What about without your shoes? Five? Six? Exactly? Okay, entertainment,
Speaker 1: that's it. Everyone, go check out, go follow Taylor Hicks
Speaker 1: at Taylor Hicks Official. The new song is porch swing.
Speaker 1: You guys, everybody awesome. You guess sounded great. It's been
Speaker 1: a lot of fun for me, and anything from you
Speaker 1: guys before we go. No, okay, it's great. It was great.
Speaker 1: I've put one of those Apple Air tags on his
Speaker 1: car so I know exactly where he goes after this
Speaker 1: second track him Otherwise, Taylor, congratulations on a great performance
Speaker 1: in a new song and hopefully we will see soon
Speaker 1: my friend. Thanks. It's the best bits of the week
Speaker 1: with Morgan. Number two, Lunchbox and I shared some recent
Speaker 1: uber incidents that we've had. Lunchbox had a crazy driver
Speaker 1: who just danced the entire time and didn't keep their
Speaker 1: hands on the steering wheel. And I got into an
Speaker 1: uber that had two people in it, and no it
Speaker 1: was not I shared uber you know where you can
Speaker 1: order an uber and it also can pick somebody else up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it wasn't one of those, but there was two people,
Speaker 1: one of the driver's seat, one of the passenger's seat,
Speaker 1: and so we shared what happened and what transpired out
Speaker 1: of these kind of interesting uber experiences, and y'all also
Speaker 1: shared them on our social media pages. So if you
Speaker 1: have a crazy uber experience, make sure to hit me
Speaker 1: up at web Girl Morgan or you can hit the
Speaker 1: show up at Bobby Bones Show number five. We were
Speaker 1: talking about our kids don't really want to drive like
Speaker 1: we did when we were kids, mostly because it's ride
Speaker 1: share Uber left they don't have to have a car
Speaker 1: to get to the places they have to get to.
Speaker 1: But that being said, we use Uber a decent amount,
Speaker 1: even though we have cars and have two crazy Uber stories.
Speaker 1: Lunchbox your first. So I took one home from your
Speaker 1: million dollars show the other night, and the guy picks
Speaker 1: me up by getting them back. And as we're driving,
Speaker 1: he keeps taking his hands off the wheel because he's
Speaker 1: jamming out to music. And I'm going, do you say
Speaker 1: something like it? So I was like, hands on the wheel.
Speaker 1: So you were telling him how to drive? Yes, because
Speaker 1: my life is in his hands and he is getting
Speaker 1: so lost in his music. What kind of music though?
Speaker 1: It was outcast and he was just rocking it and
Speaker 1: he was just throwing his hand and I was like,
Speaker 1: hands on the wheel, hands on the wheel, and I
Speaker 1: can't see him. His eyes are closed because when you're
Speaker 1: jamming sometimes yeah, and I'm it, I hate your feeling it,
Speaker 1: but put their hands on the wheel and bob your
Speaker 1: head up and down. Did he do that? And then okay?
Speaker 1: And he put his hands back on the wheel. And
Speaker 1: then about five seconds later he starts jamming again hands
Speaker 1: and he put one hand on the wheel and then
Speaker 1: he'd have another hand in and I'm just like, dude,
Speaker 1: what are you doing? Like please stop? And I got
Speaker 1: home safely. Did you rate him anywhorse? No? Did you
Speaker 1: tip him? Because he did have good music? Like shake?
Speaker 1: Because it's like was it a friendly driver? He was friendly?
Speaker 1: Was it a good like like clean car? It was
Speaker 1: a clean car. It didn't say anything about did he
Speaker 1: have his hands on the wheel? Did you enjoy outcast? Hey?
Speaker 1: If so? Hit? I mean it was good. But it
Speaker 1: was just like I was like, would you say something?
Speaker 1: Do you say something? Because I did? And I was like,
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's supposed to tell these people
Speaker 1: about to drive. I don't know. I've corrected Uber drivers
Speaker 1: before on the way they're going. Oh if I know
Speaker 1: the place, they don't like that. I'm like, hey, this
Speaker 1: especially to the the airport. I know the way to the airport.
Speaker 1: I go all the time, and I know the traffic
Speaker 1: and when it's bad and I was like, hey, I
Speaker 1: know the GPS says this by promise you. We do
Speaker 1: this all the time if you want to go up here.
Speaker 1: I say it like that, like, hey, you're doing wrong.
Speaker 1: If you want to go up here, you can do this,
Speaker 1: and they'd be like no, and then I'll go, hey,
Speaker 1: I really do think you should go this way because
Speaker 1: I kind of want a time time crunch. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: it's awkward, but I do know the way. So but
Speaker 1: the hands, I don't know why I do about the hands.
Speaker 1: Here's the other one, Morgan, what happened to you? So
Speaker 1: when I got in, I realized somebody else was also
Speaker 1: in the car, not just the driver. There was somebody
Speaker 1: else sitting in the passenger seat. So it wasn't like
Speaker 1: when Abby met the guy she wanted to go on
Speaker 1: a date with. What do you share? You didn't do
Speaker 1: never Share. I didn't do uber share. This was just
Speaker 1: me picking up an uber I get in. There's two
Speaker 1: people in the front seat. Oh, they're coming to kidnap
Speaker 1: you and kill you. Yeah. Yeah, And it was a
Speaker 1: guy and a girl and over. I sat in there
Speaker 1: and contemplated getting out for a minute, but as I
Speaker 1: started to hear their conversation, I realized they were friends.
Speaker 1: This girl in the front seat was just riding along
Speaker 1: with her guy friend. He should let you know. Then
Speaker 1: as soon as you get in, there has to be
Speaker 1: something said, Hey, I'm Mike Ipe, It's cool. This is
Speaker 1: my friend. She's something that needs to be addressed. Otherwise
Speaker 1: it feels completely unsafe. Yea, it's two verses one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's why it feels unsafe. Yeah, So I sent my
Speaker 1: uber ride to like all my friends and my mom.
Speaker 1: I'm like, if I don't make it out of this car,
Speaker 1: you guys know I'm not safe. And you didn't say
Speaker 1: anything about it? No, because he didn't say anything, so
Speaker 1: I just assumed. I'm like, does he just think this
Speaker 1: is okay? Again? I don't know if I'd have said
Speaker 1: anything either, unless they were going to the airport and
Speaker 1: I've been like, hey you too, this is not the way.
Speaker 1: By the way, why the two of you? I did
Speaker 1: watch my tracking the whole time. I was like, are
Speaker 1: we going to the right place? Yeah, that's bizarre too.
Speaker 1: Would you have gotten out though, or would you have stayed?
Speaker 1: I think I'd probably gotten in and just prayed to
Speaker 1: God I didn't get murdered. But it's also give up
Speaker 1: for guys and girls. I agree because Morgan is a woman. Yeah, yes,
Speaker 1: who is small? I mean at some point I think
Speaker 1: you got to say, and who is this? Like am
Speaker 1: I praying for her? Ride? Like what's going on? Like weird,
Speaker 1: that's a weird way to go at it, But I
Speaker 1: do I don't think I do understand that, Like I
Speaker 1: know your bill, but who is she? Maybe? Oh, let
Speaker 1: me think I'm getting the car over and up? Oh
Speaker 1: oh oh? Did I accidentally or order uber share? If so,
Speaker 1: I messed up because there's somebody else in the car.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's because that's what can of my mind instinctually,
Speaker 1: and then that would make him address, well, no, no,
Speaker 1: this is her and we've come together to kill you.
Speaker 1: You get out. Have you ever had to prematurely like
Speaker 1: get out of an uber No? But once I accidentally
Speaker 1: ordered uber share and we stopped at somebody's house and
Speaker 1: I'm like, what's happening here? And he's like, we're picking
Speaker 1: and I'm and they got in the seat beside me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's crazy, and I'm like, what what's happening? And then
Speaker 1: I looked down and it said you're doing uber share
Speaker 1: And I pushed the wrong button and then we had
Speaker 1: to go. We stopped it like some pharmacy. So no,
Speaker 1: but I've accidentally been in a weird situation like that.
Speaker 1: It was my fault, have you. Yeah, when my uber
Speaker 1: driver hit a person, Well, that's right, and you headed
Speaker 1: the awkward thing. Hey I want to go. Oh yeah.
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm get He's like, hey, hair, let
Speaker 1: me go handle this. Hold on, hold on, was so
Speaker 1: casual about it. And then he got out and you know, police,
Speaker 1: fire trugs, all these things start arriving and I'm like,
Speaker 1: nothing to see here, I'm ordering another umber. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two,
Speaker 1: Lunchbox shared a pro tip on how to Valentine's like
Speaker 1: a boss. Yes, we are past Valentine's Day and that
Speaker 1: is the whole point of this segment, but you might
Speaker 1: not be able to still do his tip even though
Speaker 1: it is a little bit past until next year. So
Speaker 1: you need this information because he thinks it's the best
Speaker 1: way to handle Valentine's Day, and frankly, just about almost
Speaker 1: any holiday. That's how he feels. So listen to this.
Speaker 1: He thinks you need a pin and paper to write
Speaker 1: this down and never forget this pro tip from Lunchbox
Speaker 1: number four. It's a little late for a Valentine segment, No,
Speaker 1: I don't think so, it's a perfect time. Actually, okay,
Speaker 1: So what's the deal. This is how you Valentine's like
Speaker 1: a boss. I told you, guys, last week I did
Speaker 1: nothing for my wife or Valentine's Day. She cooked dinner,
Speaker 1: she confirmed it. We had audio for telling you. But
Speaker 1: what you do is you wait till days afterwards. You
Speaker 1: go to the store. Guys, everything is on clearance. And
Speaker 1: so I went to Walgreens this weekend and here it is.
Speaker 1: This is what I say. Just the shelves are full
Speaker 1: of valentine stuff eighty percent off. So then do you
Speaker 1: save it and do it next year? Because Valentine's isn't
Speaker 1: no no holiday, no, no, no no, no no. I just
Speaker 1: give it to her when I get home. Oh just listen,
Speaker 1: listen and look at just hit the clip. Here's lunch
Speaker 1: Box in the store setting up his hack. Guys. This
Speaker 1: is how you do Valentine today. Look eighty percent off?
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, seventy percent off? Are you kidding me?
Speaker 1: So I can buy all this and you guys are
Speaker 1: the chumps that bought it early saved that money. Areas
Speaker 1: revealing what he bought and how much money he saved.
Speaker 1: Go ahead, So what we end up getting? Guys? What
Speaker 1: we end up getting? Oh, my goodness, chocolate twenty dollars
Speaker 1: if you buy it on Valentine's Day? Two dollars today.
Speaker 1: Oh you want to get your lady of boatcam of

Speaker 1: got three dollars of flowers. Oh, another three dollars of flowers.
Speaker 1: Another three dollars of flowers. Another three dollars of flowers. Guys,
Speaker 1: I spent one twelve fourteen dollars. Whoa Valentines? Like a boss?
Speaker 1: That's how you do it? Did you give it to
Speaker 1: your wife? Gave it to my wife. She's like, oh,
Speaker 1: thank you. What's great is you want to know why
Speaker 1: they're eighteen dollars because they had hearts on the little
Speaker 1: wrapping paper around the flowers. They're the exact same flowers
Speaker 1: they would have out any other day, but they put
Speaker 1: that little They could they could have taken that wrapping
Speaker 1: off and let and put it back on there and
Speaker 1: charge you what. No, you shut it on it's put

Speaker 1: when you forget because she has two vases worth of flowers.
Speaker 1: There were so many flowers and it only calls me
Speaker 1: twelve dollars. That's like a boss, everybody. I am thinking
Speaker 1: from a parent's perspective. It's not a bad idea to
Speaker 1: get Valentine's for your kids. That gets expensive too, So yeah,
Speaker 1: I wonder if you could stock up. Valentine's is not practical.
Speaker 1: It's it's a stupid holiday, but it's romantic. Romance is
Speaker 1: not practical, So saving money's a practical thing. It doesn't
Speaker 1: matter you Valentines. I'm like a bare segment. There. You
Speaker 1: do it next year and your lady will love you
Speaker 1: can go today. I don't have to go next year.

Speaker 1: us on the show about how they started as a duo,
Speaker 1: what happened, and if they're ever going to release new music.
Speaker 1: And I'm just saying I'm freaking out based on the
Speaker 1: answers that came out of this interview. Number three exciting

Speaker 1: a fan of you guys together and individually, and Jessica,
Speaker 1: you and I've spoken before, and Michelle, I mean, it's
Speaker 1: just like I've been trying to track you guys down
Speaker 1: forever and it took a hospital to get us all together.
Speaker 1: So important thing. You're actually the reason why we got
Speaker 1: back together. Yes, you made it happen. I don't know
Speaker 1: if you're kidding or not, Michelle, because I don't know that.
Speaker 1: I don't know that's true. But if that's I will
Speaker 1: put that on my bio. It'll be on my Instagram bio.
Speaker 1: So let me ask this, Let's go back to the
Speaker 1: infancy of the rerecords. How why and how like how
Speaker 1: did this thing come together? Michelle, I'll start with you, Um, Magic,
Speaker 1: Were you living in Nashville. No, I wasn't at the time.
Speaker 1: We met in the children, Yeah we met y We
Speaker 1: literally met teenagers airport at teenagers like just crossing or
Speaker 1: were you going to the same place like camp or something.
Speaker 1: I lived in Kansas City, Okay, and she was coming
Speaker 1: through on a radio tour and I and I had
Speaker 1: heard her music, um, and was completely blown away by
Speaker 1: her music and said like please, let's keep in touch,
Speaker 1: let's meet, let's hang out. And um this was before
Speaker 1: like the day the days of high security at airports. Yeah.
Speaker 1: She's like, um, I'll just meet you when your layover
Speaker 1: the airport and like we'll have a tcby and like
Speaker 1: hang out. Yeah. Yeah, So, um we hung out at
Speaker 1: the airport and then I was like you should come
Speaker 1: out on tour and like we should write together, and
Speaker 1: then it turned into her singing with me on stage
Speaker 1: and then We're never going home. Yeah, And we kept
Speaker 1: writing these songs on the tour bus and singing them
Speaker 1: in harmony and they were clearly not Michelle Branch songs.
Speaker 1: And I was like, wait, I want to work on
Speaker 1: this instead of I was supposed to turn in another
Speaker 1: solo record, and I was like, this is what I
Speaker 1: want to do. And it just happened so naturally and quickly,
Speaker 1: and yeah, and so what's the next step? You call her?
Speaker 1: She says, yes, do you go? Okay? Now we needed
Speaker 1: to come up with a name and is it going
Speaker 1: to be an entity or were you just like seeing
Speaker 1: what are you experimenting? Still? No, we knew we wanted
Speaker 1: to be in a band. We had this portion of
Speaker 1: my show she was singing back up, and we would
Speaker 1: have this portion of the show where every the band
Speaker 1: would leave the stage and it was just she and
Speaker 1: I on stage and we would play a couple of songs.
Speaker 1: And so we were like, we have to start thinking
Speaker 1: of what to call this. And we actually played music
Speaker 1: for our record label. I was on Maverick at the
Speaker 1: time and in LA and I played it for them
Speaker 1: and they were like, we don't know what to do
Speaker 1: with this, Like you wait, you're wanting to do a
Speaker 1: country project? Like we don't understand. So we went we
Speaker 1: approached producer John levinthal Um and we were like, we
Speaker 1: really want you to produce our record and we'll pay
Speaker 1: for it and do this all like you had massive
Speaker 1: success and you're like, now I want to go to
Speaker 1: a country record. I literally got a call from someone
Speaker 1: who worked at my publishing company and she was like,
Speaker 1: I think we need to have an intervention like this
Speaker 1: is we're really concerned about you. And I was like, no,
Speaker 1: you guys are all crazy. And then, of course when
Speaker 1: it was a massive success, everyone's like I knew of
Speaker 1: course beginning, So the first single you guys put out
Speaker 1: ever at Well, how did the Wreckers come up? How
Speaker 1: did you settle on the name the Wreckers? Well, originally
Speaker 1: we were the Cass County Home Wreckers, like as a joke. Yeah,
Speaker 1: started as a total job and then we just shortened it.
Speaker 1: And there was a band in Canada called the Wreckers,
Speaker 1: and we didn't realize that until we had already kind
Speaker 1: of the train had left the station. We actually had
Speaker 1: to buy the band name. And now I wonder what
Speaker 1: happened to the Canadians. Well, they're now known as the
Speaker 1: Barnaked Ladies, so they've really done well since then. So
Speaker 1: and how fast it success hit for you guys as
Speaker 1: a as a performing duo. Um, you know in movies like,
Speaker 1: for instance, the movie that thing you do when they
Speaker 1: are recording and then they leave the studio and it's
Speaker 1: playing in the car already, you know, that's how it
Speaker 1: felt bad way. Yeah. So it also happened in the
Speaker 1: Queen documentary where they're like, we're a queen, now we're
Speaker 1: top of the pops. I'm like, that's not how it
Speaker 1: happened at all, But for you guys, it was. It
Speaker 1: was felt that way, feel that way. It just once
Speaker 1: it started, it never stopped. We wrote the album, We
Speaker 1: wrote the whole album my Nieces in my own Mind. Yeah,
Speaker 1: in two weeks. And did you know that, you guys?
Speaker 1: Had I asked this question and some people will be like, Noah,
Speaker 1: we know we just wrote a bunch of good songs.
Speaker 1: We didn't know, but you write that all in two weeks.
Speaker 1: Did you feel like, man, this is like really special
Speaker 1: because we dedicated our times to just this project. Or
Speaker 1: were you like, I don't know what it's gonna do. No,
Speaker 1: it felt it feel so exciting and special. Did you
Speaker 1: know that Leave the Pieces was like the catchiest, biggest
Speaker 1: sounding song yes and no though, because if you remember
Speaker 1: the demo, I mean the demo was kind of lackluster truly.
Speaker 1: I mean it was a good demo, but from the
Speaker 1: demo you didn't get that feeling. And we were told
Speaker 1: that many other artists had recorded that song little Bit
Speaker 1: a Little Big Town cut it um someone else and
Speaker 1: it never happened. And I heard it and I was like, no,
Speaker 1: you guys, this is a really good song, Like please
Speaker 1: trust me on this stuck to you. It was just
Speaker 1: there's like an instant. One of my kind of things
Speaker 1: that I've always noticed about songs that I love that
Speaker 1: become known songs or big songs, is like when it finishes,
Speaker 1: you immediately want to start it over and hear the
Speaker 1: intro again. And for me, like there's something magical about
Speaker 1: the intro. The lyrics I really loved and related to,
Speaker 1: and the melody was so strong and the yeah yeah
Speaker 1: and the yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, Like past that up.
Speaker 1: So you guys started playing, did you go on the
Speaker 1: road and open for like any of the massive They're like, hey,
Speaker 1: come out, and you were like the baby opener. Everybody, everybody,
Speaker 1: Rascal flats almost immediately, who was awesome to you guys.
Speaker 1: Everybody really Keith Urban was great. Yeah, everyone is really yeah,
Speaker 1: really awesome. I mean that that time period too, I
Speaker 1: just felt like it was so special, the circle of artists.
Speaker 1: We'd all see each other on you know, radio shows
Speaker 1: or tour and everyone really felt like family. It was, Um,
Speaker 1: it was such a cool period of time in both
Speaker 1: of our lives. It was I'm gonna ask the difficult
Speaker 1: question now that we're together and we all feel good
Speaker 1: with each other. I mean, I mean, we're all for
Speaker 1: best friends. Like maybe I don't know, we cut something
Speaker 1: at some point something I don't know, just throwing it
Speaker 1: out there. Maybe we talked about that at all. Oh yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: So Jess and I had plans to get together and
Speaker 1: just write and hang out and catch up. And then
Speaker 1: this you know thing called COVID happened, um and put
Speaker 1: a damper in our socializing. Uh. And then and we
Speaker 1: both had children having babies. Yeah, you don't know they're
Speaker 1: coming all of a sudden. The I actually remember, I
Speaker 1: think I wrote you and I was like, eh, I'm pregnant.
Speaker 1: You were like, oh cool, coom too. Thank Let's just
Speaker 1: keep kicking the can down the road until like we're
Speaker 1: allowed to, you know, do this, so at some point
Speaker 1: maybe there'll be another Wreckers project. Whatever it is. We
Speaker 1: both we both love would like that a lot. Well,
Speaker 1: let me thank you guys from the bottom of heart,
Speaker 1: because I don't think I would have asked if it
Speaker 1: wasn't a big deal that didn't include me, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: we did the show last night, which, by the way,
Speaker 1: just something for the listeners. We recorded this right before
Speaker 1: the show that's airing after the show, because I was
Speaker 1: never gonna make them play and they come up in
Speaker 1: the morning. Yeah, we are both moms, so we would
Speaker 1: were up anyway. So we're kind of in a time
Speaker 1: machine here. Um, but thank you guys, because it's you know,
Speaker 1: such a big deal to us to be able to
Speaker 1: continue on with that hospital and this thing has turned
Speaker 1: into it's a massive show at the rhyme, but it
Speaker 1: gets it's played all over and we raised so much money,
Speaker 1: So I would have never asked if it wasn't so important.
Speaker 1: So I'm just really appreciative of both of you for
Speaker 1: you for flying in yes and and being here from
Speaker 1: cans road tripping hours four year old. Wait a minute, yeah,
Speaker 1: I was like, we'll get her plane ticket they made you,
Speaker 1: she she wanted to. She got to the airport, She's like,
Speaker 1: is there a ticket? They're like no, I'm sorry, crap.
Speaker 1: So does it fit like a glove? When you guys
Speaker 1: try to sing it? Is it easy? Yeah? It's like
Speaker 1: hair on your arms stand up. It's just back like
Speaker 1: no time has passed exactly. Well, I can't wait till tonight.
Speaker 1: Slash last night was awesome pressure and we just can't
Speaker 1: wait to hear what you guys have in store. And
Speaker 1: it's so nice to meet both of you in person.
Speaker 1: Just have been a massive fan of both of you
Speaker 1: as a unit. Individually. Um, I don't know aim anything
Speaker 1: for for Michelle, for Jessica Jess, but Jessica called her Jess.
Speaker 1: Now I'm like, I'm the nerve that doesn't know well
Speaker 1: enough called her je My comment was that I'm just
Speaker 1: kind of geeking out to see y'all performed tonight, but
Speaker 1: it's actually tomorrow, so yeah, so I feel like, yes,
Speaker 1: my hair on my arms are gonna stand down, so
Speaker 1: you haven't hear background vocals? Are you're gonna here tonight?
Speaker 1: I love it? Oh yeah, I'm kidding, it's gonna be great. Okay,
Speaker 1: there they are the records. It's Michelle and my friend Jess.
Speaker 1: By the way, you didn't know um, and we'll be
Speaker 1: very excited to hear whatever you guys have having store
Speaker 1: for us. Thank you, and let's clap him out there
Speaker 1: the records, everybody. It's the best bits of the week
Speaker 1: with Morgan. Number two, Amy has been putting kool aid
Speaker 1: in her toilet. It's a pro tip she got from
Speaker 1: a professional to help lower her water bill. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: a whole thing, and I'm gonna need you to hear this.
Speaker 1: And if you're a professional, or maybe you've done this
Speaker 1: and it worked, let us know. Because it turned into
Speaker 1: a whole debate on the show. Number two, our listeners
Speaker 1: are intrigued, why do you put kool aid in your toilet?
Speaker 1: The water company told me to do it. So for
Speaker 1: months we've had issues with our water bill. One month,
Speaker 1: I came on and told you I was six hundred
Speaker 1: dollars and five hundred. I was doing everything to try
Speaker 1: to lower it. People came out, no issues. Finally got
Speaker 1: it down to ninety dollars. But you didn't do anything different.
Speaker 1: They just said I called in complain. Yeah, and all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, your next bill is ninety dollars, right, Well,
Speaker 1: I guess they couldn't keep up with that. So I
Speaker 1: got a new bill high again three hundred or six
Speaker 1: hundred again three almost four hundred. So I mean, it
Speaker 1: doesn't make sense, right, So I asked the water company
Speaker 1: to please send someone out. So he came checked the meter.
Speaker 1: He said the meter numbers were basically saying like this
Speaker 1: is just this is not actually what's happening, but the
Speaker 1: numbers are representing that. Say I had a water faucet
Speaker 1: just on all day long, water just blown out of there.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, well that's not the case. There's nothing on.
Speaker 1: So he said, Okay, let's let's do a little experiment
Speaker 1: with your toilets. Go get some of that old school
Speaker 1: great kool Aid powder and put it in one full
Speaker 1: pack in all of your toilets, like the tank of it.
Speaker 1: The tank and I don't have actual issues, but it
Speaker 1: could be like a flapper issue and somehow if purple
Speaker 1: from the purple kool Aid ends up in the bowl,
Speaker 1: the toilet bowl, then there's an issue. And so yeah,
Speaker 1: but that that can't be accurate either fully, because because
Speaker 1: it can't use it, you can't use it. Yeah, no, no,
Speaker 1: I know, but I'm saying, if it follow me here,
Speaker 1: if there's purple in the tank and that purple goes
Speaker 1: down to the bowl, but it's not leaving the bowl.
Speaker 1: But if the flap's closed, yeah, you're not the right right,
Speaker 1: But I'm saying it's not a NonStop situation. The water
Speaker 1: it shouldn't be that high. Still, it's just one shift
Speaker 1: down into the bowl. That's it. That's not gonna catch
Speaker 1: four hund bucks if it's gone out of there. And
Speaker 1: then it's gone out of the bowl too, that's where
Speaker 1: it's all gone. Who knows how often that's circulating with
Speaker 1: all that water. Okay, listen, so you need to do
Speaker 1: grape on top, cherry on bottom. But it does make
Speaker 1: sense though, just to see if the tank it was
Speaker 1: a problem. Something's rotten and water's just running. And so
Speaker 1: pretty much only one of my toilets was good to go.
Speaker 1: The others all issues and it was all drinkable and
Speaker 1: I had to have I know, my son, this is amazing.
Speaker 1: All your bad to have Hiller the Happy Face Truck
Speaker 1: today come out and fix these flappers. So this is
Speaker 1: just step one in the mystery. So now we got
Speaker 1: to wait for another bill cycle to see what it
Speaker 1: seems fishy still, because like I said, it follow me
Speaker 1: your tanks full of water. It's got water that's twelve
Speaker 1: inches high. Yeah, it all is coolated up and goes
Speaker 1: into your bowl. If your bowls just got coolated in it,
Speaker 1: it's only twelve inches that's up there. Now that's going
Speaker 1: to cost a little more, but it's gonna double your bill.
Speaker 1: And if that's one or two toilets, it's not that
Speaker 1: much water like leaving a water fawcet on the whole time. Well, yes,
Speaker 1: if the flopper is not working, it'll never get back
Speaker 1: to that twelve inches. So it consistently runs because it's
Speaker 1: the ball would be higher. I mean, I didn't know,
Speaker 1: you guys. I had to be Hey, real people know
Speaker 1: what it's like to jiggle a handle a toilet even
Speaker 1: stop running before. Yeah. So it's like I had to
Speaker 1: kind of become a plumber when I grew up because
Speaker 1: we had broken toilets all the time. But the fact
Speaker 1: that you know that if it doesn't go down the
Speaker 1: bowl and it fills back up, but it would it
Speaker 1: would overflow the toilet if that were the case, because
Speaker 1: it wouldn't stop. Every It doesn't naturally just go down
Speaker 1: without fleshing. That's the case. If it does, then it's
Speaker 1: like death. But no, it's not. She has Frank Cranberry
Speaker 1: Delight in her toilet. I'm not buying it. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: you know, that's probably a case a little bit, but
Speaker 1: I'm not buying it. Yeah, that's that stinks. I bet
Speaker 1: you get a cheaper bill. You get like a forty
Speaker 1: dollar bill next month. Can't wait, mark my words, okay,
Speaker 1: and you'll get some free kool aid in the mail.
Speaker 1: All right. It's the Best Bits of the Week with
Speaker 1: Morgan number two, and of course in this number one spot,
Speaker 1: it's the million Dollars Show. We talked about it on
Speaker 1: The Bobby Bones Show a little bit this week after
Speaker 1: it happened. But the coolest thing out of it Bobby
Speaker 1: Bones and the Raging Idiots, this show that they've put
Speaker 1: on for several years, but not only that, the radiothons
Speaker 1: and all these crazy awesome things we've done to help
Speaker 1: Saint Jude. This show particularly eclipsed twenty million dollars raised
Speaker 1: for Saint Jude. And that's so awesome in so many ways,
Speaker 1: and so Bobby received an award at the Million Dollars show,
Speaker 1: and he talked about the night and the surprise performances
Speaker 1: and the person that everybody freaked out when they came
Speaker 1: on stage. So this is a little highlight of what
Speaker 1: happened at the Million Dollars show. But there's also so
Speaker 1: many pictures up at Bobby Bones dot com, so if
Speaker 1: you weren't there, you can relive the night in a
Speaker 1: way through photo form number one. So apparently there was
Speaker 1: drama last night work. A lot of the show members
Speaker 1: went to the show that Eddie and I did at
Speaker 1: the Rhyme and last night, and I didn't know who's
Speaker 1: there or not. I was running, as I said, was
Speaker 1: like a chicken. Them a head cut off all day
Speaker 1: from the radio show to rehearsals, to the show to
Speaker 1: do impress and promos. Because we shot as a TV special,
Speaker 1: I know anything was happening. Thank you for keeping that
Speaker 1: from me. But who scoopa? Was a you who's telling
Speaker 1: me that Lunchbox is demanding backstage passes? Yes, And I
Speaker 1: don't know if you may say the reason why, but
Speaker 1: he's like, I need to be in the back No
Speaker 1: say the reason why, because I don't want to be
Speaker 1: around all the listeners and then bother me for photos
Speaker 1: and hanging out, so I gotta be away from them.
Speaker 1: Put me in the back, please. That was about it, right,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you respond to that. Yeah, accurate, because
Speaker 1: if you do go out front, like which I did
Speaker 1: a couple times. I saw a video of you out front,
Speaker 1: yeas long, and guess what happens. You get mugged. And
Speaker 1: I'm like, listen, guys, I'm trying to enjoy the show,
Speaker 1: and I don't. You can't really enjoy it from the back.
Speaker 1: You can't hear anything really well. You can't enjoy it
Speaker 1: in the front because I mean you can't watch it.
Speaker 1: Because I went out there for like two minutes. You
Speaker 1: were singing as loud as you could, right in the
Speaker 1: middle of people, and You're like, what old bad whatever
Speaker 1: you're singing. It was like, of course that's you. Everyone
Speaker 1: else is enjoying the show. I don't think they're worried
Speaker 1: about Oh yeah they were. I mean they were all
Speaker 1: just jumping up and I mean I'm sitting there trying
Speaker 1: to watch Stone and people are turning around filming me
Speaker 1: watching the show. That's what I'm saying, so that's why
Speaker 1: I need a backstage passes. I couldn't. I was like,
Speaker 1: this is I thought you like to be Yeah, I
Speaker 1: just didn't. No, I do, but I mean it was
Speaker 1: just it was over. I mean, how many ten thousand
Speaker 1: people there? And it was I was going to say,
Speaker 1: hid all ten thousand? Like one time I tried to
Speaker 1: go to the bathroom because we got locked out of
Speaker 1: the back and I mean it took me thirty minutes
Speaker 1: to get to the bathroom because people kept on to
Speaker 1: take pictures. I was like, guys, I'm about to pee
Speaker 1: my pants. Sounds like your dream not peeing my pants
Speaker 1: right there. And so, yes, it was demanded backstage passes.
Speaker 1: Demanded back stage passes. I don't think that's it. There's
Speaker 1: anything wrong with that. I didn't know if it was true.
Speaker 1: I mean, how awkward with Look if I had to
Speaker 1: walk in the front door, like with a ticket, I
Speaker 1: mean everyone at all? You mean like everybody else? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's weird. So is it about the listeners? That about
Speaker 1: walking through the front What I'm saying, it's like it
Speaker 1: looks bad if I'm walking with a regular ticket, Hey
Speaker 1: hundred knocking. I don't have back with the stage pass.
Speaker 1: I'm embarrassing. Huh yeah, exactly. Okay, so we got through that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I don't think that's a big deal. No big deal.
Speaker 1: Let's watch showed up. He just had his phone out.
Speaker 1: He's recording everything as he walked through, like recording other
Speaker 1: famous people back there. And I'm like, oh, maybe back here,
Speaker 1: we don't do that. But then I realized he's complaining
Speaker 1: of people doing that to him. You were doing to
Speaker 1: them what you didn't like done to you. No, No,
Speaker 1: I was giving up behind the scenes. Look, I'm also
Speaker 1: like a reporter, but you're not. We didn't ask you
Speaker 1: to do that. Maybe they were going on a reporter
Speaker 1: for the B team, um, and I was giving people
Speaker 1: what it's like backstage at this event the million dollars,
Speaker 1: saying it was hypocritical. You well, I didn't tell people
Speaker 1: to stop filming me. I just went back in the back.
Speaker 1: It's like, all right, Well they also didn't tell you. Well,
Speaker 1: I ain't going their dressing room. The Ryman's very the
Speaker 1: dressing rooms are upstairs. Yeah, that was weird. I mean
Speaker 1: I went upstairs a couple dressing rooms. Was a little weird.
Speaker 1: Were you going to a couple of dressing rooms. I'm
Speaker 1: just looking around. I've never been up there, Like, I
Speaker 1: didn't realize there was that many dressing rooms. I only
Speaker 1: knew there was that first floor. And then I saw
Speaker 1: people going up the stairs. I was like, what's up here?
Speaker 1: So I went up there and saw dressing rooms like
Speaker 1: I saw Scott Stabb's dressing room. I saw, like, you
Speaker 1: go in them? Yeah, no, they weren't there. You're walking
Speaker 1: to people's dressing roo know Scott staff was in there. Okay, okay.
Speaker 1: So Scott's staff is the lead singer of Creed who
Speaker 1: we did some Creed songs last night. That place erupted.
Speaker 1: It was awesome. So he did higher and I asked Scott.
Speaker 1: I said, hey, we're doing the show at the Rhyman
Speaker 1: my band, the Raging Idiots, and it's for Saint Jude.
Speaker 1: And he was like, yeah, I'm in. It's all done.
Speaker 1: It wasn't really because I'm in immediately, and we did
Speaker 1: an hour long podcast together and we kind of got
Speaker 1: to know each other there. But it's like Creed, Like
Speaker 1: I bought concert tickets to go watch Creed and they
Speaker 1: came and a rehearsal. He came in and if you've
Speaker 1: never worked with anybody, and he's also they were so successful,
Speaker 1: You're like, what is this guy gonna be like professionally
Speaker 1: walked in, talked with every member of the band, like
Speaker 1: stood around, just chilled, sang the songs. We were all like, oh,
Speaker 1: my goodness, that is he's awesome. He still had it was.
Speaker 1: It was just so good last night. It was so good.
Speaker 1: I think people it was a surprise and then people
Speaker 1: were like, oh yeah, Creed, oh man. It was that
Speaker 1: kind of moment. It was the eruption after he was done,
Speaker 1: I think was one of the biggest. They gave him
Speaker 1: a standing ovation. Yeah, and they wouldn't sit down and
Speaker 1: then he was like to do another one. We didn't
Speaker 1: practice another one, and I just do you get your
Speaker 1: good And that was his first time to play the
Speaker 1: rheman right, and it was the first time to play
Speaker 1: in like a year period because I haven't performed at all.
Speaker 1: It's amazing. It's amazing, Michelle Branch so good. You know,
Speaker 1: they were in earlier. I saw their dressing room. Okay,
Speaker 1: but okay, they were in earlier. But we actually recorded
Speaker 1: that yesterday before the show because I don't want them
Speaker 1: to have to wake up and come up here. But
Speaker 1: Michelle Branch sounded so good, so good, just like the record.
Speaker 1: And then the records came out, Jessica came out and
Speaker 1: they performed two songs together and it was just super
Speaker 1: cool because they hadn't performed together in ten years, not
Speaker 1: like that first time they reunited. She said it here.
Speaker 1: She was like, we got back together because you asked
Speaker 1: us to do this for Saint Jude. That's super cool. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Dina Carter did Strawberry Wine and the Place. She didn't
Speaker 1: even need to hit a note on her guitar. Everybody
Speaker 1: just want to sang the whole thing. And she's just
Speaker 1: the nicest. Another one of the surprise guests who we
Speaker 1: had closed the show was Jaco Onen, who an easy
Speaker 1: asked three. He's one of my best friends, and I
Speaker 1: didn't tell him he was doing three songs until he
Speaker 1: got there, and then he was like, oh, I guess
Speaker 1: I'm doing three songs. And we did Down to the
Speaker 1: Hockey Talk, and then we did is up There down
Speaker 1: Here as current single, and then at the end we
Speaker 1: did Barefoot Blue Gan Night, and again same type of situation.
Speaker 1: Everybody was just going nuts. What was funny was he
Speaker 1: was telling a story because his daughter Pearl was with
Speaker 1: him in Pearls ten and some guy went up to Pearl.
Speaker 1: I was like, I haven't known your dads since he
Speaker 1: was playing Barefoot Blue Jean and Pearl Goo. He still
Speaker 1: plays it. He still does that song. So that's pretty funny.
Speaker 1: But we raised a bunch of money. I mean, it
Speaker 1: was incredible. There are so many great moments. I mean,
Speaker 1: Madeline Edwards and Dave's Highway two new artists came out
Speaker 1: again and just leg swept everybody because you know, we
Speaker 1: had all this stuff happening. And I also like to
Speaker 1: introduce new artists during the show and some people are like,
Speaker 1: ok we had a couple of new artists, Parker McCall
Speaker 1: we had And then they're like, okay, new artists. Maybe
Speaker 1: we go get a beer or something, and all of
Speaker 1: a sudden they start singing like, oh, well, get back
Speaker 1: to your seat. Yeah. Had friends who are like, hey,
Speaker 1: what's that new group again? Or what was her name?
Speaker 1: Madeline Edwards? So just a great night. What I had
Speaker 1: a lot of fun, man, thank you for having well
Speaker 1: those two So Madeline and Dave's those when they were performing,
Speaker 1: not only were they amazing, and totally killed it. But
Speaker 1: backstage they also had so much gratitude for you inviting
Speaker 1: them to be a part of it, Like they couldn't
Speaker 1: stop talking about how does in the contract if you
Speaker 1: got back there talking about me the whole time. Well,
Speaker 1: I mean, but I just thought that was cool to
Speaker 1: see too, like just their excitement and they were so
Speaker 1: thankful instead of being you know, you never know how
Speaker 1: some newer artists are going to be, and they just
Speaker 1: couldn't have been more thankful. I'm not sure what their
Speaker 1: record label status is, meaning if they even have a deal.
Speaker 1: I mean them or Madeline, and I was talking to
Speaker 1: them after. I was like, it just takes one person
Speaker 1: who's halfway smart to realize, especially them, because Madeline was early,
Speaker 1: so she wasn't around way after the show we were
Speaker 1: packing up, but they were because they played later, and
Speaker 1: I was just takes one person to see a brother
Speaker 1: and two sisters who sound like this there's and you're good.
Speaker 1: You're absolutely good enough. You're better than a lot of
Speaker 1: folks that come in here that are supposed to be
Speaker 1: the best. It just takes one smart person to go, oh,
Speaker 1: there's a niche for a good group. That's brother and sister,
Speaker 1: not just people put together. And because they're grinding, they're
Speaker 1: working real jobs every day, like normal person jobs, and
Speaker 1: like I admire that, like we're not stopping. But we
Speaker 1: also got to pay the bills, so it's cool. It
Speaker 1: was really cool. And I didn't know that last night
Speaker 1: was going to be where it would eclipse twenty million
Speaker 1: dollars raised for Saint Jude through either the radio thon
Speaker 1: or these live shows or specific one offs that we do.
Speaker 1: But over the past almost ten years it's been twenty
Speaker 1: million dollars. And Jake came out and presented me with
Speaker 1: a big award, and that's always awkward because I don't
Speaker 1: like surprise. They're tough. Oh you had no idea that
Speaker 1: was happening. Well, okay, and it was on TV, but
Speaker 1: then I didn't didn't know how to. I was just like,
Speaker 1: I don't do my face. How do'll do my face?
Speaker 1: Like I don't want to act like because it's very important,
Speaker 1: but if you're like, oh, yeah, this is I don't know.
Speaker 1: There's just a fine line. And I was like, I
Speaker 1: gotta do my face. I don't want to look like
Speaker 1: like like sad, but I also want to be happy.
Speaker 1: But so no, you did great. We'll have to see
Speaker 1: how that goes. And the yet it you did great
Speaker 1: because I didn't notice any awkward in this when you
Speaker 1: got it filled awkward because I was like, oh no,
Speaker 1: I don't like people talking about about me. You're people
Speaker 1: talking good about me. That's tough. Then they can't win.
Speaker 1: I don't like that's right. I don't like I'm a
Speaker 1: control freak because I never had control. So when people
Speaker 1: are like he's not good, I'm like, oh shut up.
Speaker 1: They're like he's good. Oh shut up. I'll be the
Speaker 1: only person. I'll say all the bad stuff about me,
Speaker 1: and I'll say all the good stuff about me. That's
Speaker 1: kind of how I've lived because I like to have
Speaker 1: the control. Not not the healthiest, but it was. It
Speaker 1: was just a great night. And I took and gave
Speaker 1: a bunch of friends five five pair I think of
Speaker 1: tickets that were mine, and so I gave him different
Speaker 1: friends and a couple of them texts me before the show,
Speaker 1: but they're like, we're here because traffic was terrible. Hey
Speaker 1: we made it, and they were sitting in like the nosebleeds,
Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't even have good tickets
Speaker 1: to give my friends. No. Apparently every seat was good.
Speaker 1: They say, yeah, that's what they say about the rhyme.
Speaker 1: But I like saw a bird landing next to one
Speaker 1: of them in a picture. They were so high up there,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, Dann, we can't even get like good
Speaker 1: tickets for my buddies. So a great show, just maybe
Speaker 1: my favorite ever. I will shout out Dirk Spentley too,
Speaker 1: because Tracy Lawrence got sick, he bronchitis, could not come
Speaker 1: and sing and I told Dirks and he was like, well,
Speaker 1: what songs? And I said, well, one of them was
Speaker 1: he find out who your friends are here. He was,
Speaker 1: I know that. But Dirk says an album coming out
Speaker 1: this week. He's gonna be on the show Friday, and
Speaker 1: I know he's going to New York to do Jimmy
Speaker 1: Fallon and do And I was like, are you can
Speaker 1: you do it? He's like, yeah, I'll drive over. And
Speaker 1: so he came out and did to Tracy Lawrence that
Speaker 1: song and then did one of his own just two
Speaker 1: hour notice. Yeah, so you know what, I found out
Speaker 1: who my friends were. My friends were, So it was
Speaker 1: a great night. I'm so tired. I probably slept an
Speaker 1: hour and a half o, not purposefully. I got home
Speaker 1: and it's eleven fifteen or so. It was late because
Speaker 1: it show didn't until ten twenty, so I got eleven
Speaker 1: fifteen eleven twenty, maybe a little later because it stayed.
Speaker 1: Took a bunch of pictures with listeners. I don't mind
Speaker 1: that lunch bucks. I don't mind going out and stuff
Speaker 1: um And then Kaylen not, we're starving, so we ordered
Speaker 1: a pizza. Why am I good? Going hard? We did,
Speaker 1: and we ordered it like eleven thirty five or so,
Speaker 1: and it said pizza will be here between like eleven
Speaker 1: fifty five and twelve. I guess, not a lot of
Speaker 1: order so they could grab it his midnight. I'm still
Speaker 1: working on today's show. And the pizza still isn't there,
Speaker 1: and she's like, I'm tired, I have to go to bed,
Speaker 1: but there's no food. So she goes quickly and makes
Speaker 1: us both like a like a little healthy nacho thing
Speaker 1: like c at chips, like um, beef and whatever. She's like,
Speaker 1: eat this and if pizza has it come, well, pizza
Speaker 1: out there like twelve fifty so would you eat that too? No,
Speaker 1: it's too late. So finally felt safe about one fifteen
Speaker 1: or so and then woke up about three thirty. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it felt like an app that is an app that
Speaker 1: is sleep. Yes, but it wasn't because that was on Hell.
Speaker 1: I just we've had a late show and then I
Speaker 1: had to stay up and work on this show. By
