Speaker 1: It's time for the Bobby Bones post show. Here's your host,
Speaker 1: Bobby Bones.
Speaker 2: Hello. Amy had to leave she was feeling great, so
Speaker 2: we'll go Amy us today. A couple of things. One
Speaker 2: I posted on my Instagram story last night a drink
Speaker 2: and it was in a Martini glass. But it was
Speaker 2: not a martini. It was a moncktail. I don't know
Speaker 2: why people still think that I would announce that I'm
Speaker 2: now drinking through just a random picture of a random
Speaker 2: I went to Luogo, which is a restaurant we really
Speaker 2: like in town. We didn't even stay, we went to
Speaker 2: pick up food. Kaylen's parents were in town last night
Speaker 2: for just a single night because they were driving through,
Speaker 2: and so it's like a favorite place. So there's a
Speaker 2: certain thing that you can't order on the app from there,
Speaker 2: but you can't order You can order Uber Eats from there,
Speaker 2: but there's a certain pizza that we like to get
Speaker 2: from there that's so thin they will not send it
Speaker 2: out delivery because they feel like the integrity of the
Speaker 2: pizza is ruined. So you have to go and actually
Speaker 2: order it and take it yourself from there. If it's
Speaker 2: the pizza, the rest of it, you can order from
Speaker 2: whatever door dash you breeds. So I'm like, we gotta
Speaker 2: get the pizza. And it's her dad's favorite thing too.
Speaker 2: So we go and we're sitting at the bar and
Speaker 2: the bar tender says, what do you have? And I said,
Speaker 2: just make make me something dirty.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 2: Now, I said, give me a mocktail. Whatever you have,
Speaker 2: give me some the fruity. The fruity is mocktail you have,
Speaker 2: And so he did. And then I just posted that
Speaker 2: picture and I didn't think much about it. I probably
Speaker 2: had seventy people going, are you drinking now? From that
Speaker 2: one picture. So it would be the lamest way for
Speaker 2: me to announce that I'm now drinking, Like I want
Speaker 2: to use that on the show, because yeah, that would
Speaker 2: be material we would put here. No, it is if
Speaker 2: you go to my instagram, mister Bobby Bones, if it's
Speaker 2: still up, depending on what time you see this, you're
Speaker 2: gonna be watching its live right now. That is there's
Speaker 2: no alcohol in that. It was called like a it's
Speaker 2: like a cherry drink, but it was kind of hot,
Speaker 2: which is probably soda water. It was good, but there's
Speaker 2: not alcohol. Soda water makes it hot, spicy, yes, club soda,
Speaker 2: sparkling water.
Speaker 4: It's funny because that's what kids call it. That's when
Speaker 4: my kids say like, ooh, this is spicy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I'm sure they pored a little something in two,
Speaker 2: but that was what it was. I want to clear
Speaker 2: that up. Number two. We turned the lights on the
Speaker 2: pickleball court last night. Played for like twenty five minutes
Speaker 2: or so. You played with your father in law. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they played for a while. I worked and then I
Speaker 2: went out. I played a bit, so I'm a little
Speaker 2: better than they are, obviously, And so I went out
Speaker 2: and was just gonna hang out and I hopped in
Speaker 2: a game and played. But I posted a picture of
Speaker 2: that last night. It was the first time we really
Speaker 2: turned the lights on the pickleball court on my Instagram story.
Speaker 2: And they work. Eddie and I did a greatjob. While
Speaker 2: I'm bringing this up is for those that know. If
Speaker 2: you're listening to this or you're watching this, you probably
Speaker 2: know that the whole Edditing and I build a pickleball
Speaker 2: court was a joke. We said it on the air
Speaker 2: maybe twice and it was hey, get in this joke
Speaker 2: with us. So a lot of you guys have been
Speaker 2: involved in the joke, meaning every time, and we would
Speaker 2: post a picture from the pickleball court as we were
Speaker 2: quote unquote building it. All we were doing was walking out,
Speaker 2: like after we'd work out into the field where there
Speaker 2: was like a tractor or a shovel or equipment and
Speaker 2: just stand in it and be like, oh, it's another
Speaker 2: hard day building the pickle ball court, which was perfect
Speaker 2: because we were already sweaty from the work exactly. But
Speaker 2: you guys knew that, and so thank you for being
Speaker 2: a part of the joke. Well, so I posted that
Speaker 2: last night. I got a bunch of people that weren't
Speaker 2: in on the joke going, you guys did a great
Speaker 2: job on that pickleball court, and they were like, did
Speaker 2: you guys do the lights yourself, to which I was like, no,
Speaker 2: we brought in the light guy. Oh okay, yeah, you
Speaker 2: didn't tell me that, So no, no, I know, but
Speaker 2: now you know. And so not only that, we played
Speaker 2: last weekend and Gator who runs the station here, the
Speaker 2: local station, and George Burgh, who's a really good friend
Speaker 2: of ours, who has a couple songs, a couple of hits,
Speaker 2: and George is a really good player. They came to
Speaker 2: the house and again we're close to them, and we
Speaker 2: didn't tell them it was a joke, and so they
Speaker 2: don't listen to the podcast. They both came over within
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes of each other and they were like, you
Speaker 2: and Idi did a great job. And I thought they
Speaker 2: were kidding because they're close friends. And I was like, oh,
Speaker 2: you never knew that we actually didn't build this court.
Speaker 2: Funny because we didn't build the court. We did we
Speaker 2: did nothing. Actually, yeah, but iy k k yeah. So
Speaker 2: those are two things I wanted to mention just to
Speaker 2: begin this here, is that we didn't build a court.
Speaker 2: But you guys probably already know that if you are
Speaker 2: watching us one with us, but please keep the joke up.
Speaker 2: A lot of people don't know. And secondly, I haven't
Speaker 2: started drinking. I felt like that needed to be that
Speaker 2: need to be brought up. That's ridiculous. That would have
Speaker 2: been a funny way to announce it, no announcement at all.
Speaker 2: One winning powerball ticket was sold in Georgia for the
Speaker 2: mass of four hundred and seventy eight million dollar jackpot drawing.
Speaker 2: And that's a lot of money. But whenever they give
Speaker 2: away a billion dollar pots, when they go the massive
Speaker 2: four hundred seventy eight million I'm like, that's nothing. Yea,
Speaker 2: which hit a billion. The Lucky Ticket has a cash
Speaker 2: option of two hundred and thirty million, so you take
Speaker 2: the four and lunchbox. My question is if it's four
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy eight million, but you take the cash
Speaker 2: option of two hundred and thirty million, is that what
Speaker 2: taxes already taken out? Or do the taxes come out
Speaker 2: after that?
Speaker 1: I assume that's the tax is taken out.
Speaker 2: I would assume it's taxed after that. Yeah, tax after that.
Speaker 2: That's my guess me too. My assumption is that you're
Speaker 2: getting less because you're taking it all up front and
Speaker 2: then they take the taxes out. But I didn't know
Speaker 2: if that was like the all the way boiled down,
Speaker 2: but I don't think it is.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And then also the other option is to get yearly payment. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that paid assay of what I like now because.
Speaker 1: Most people just take the junk because they're like, man,
Speaker 1: I don't want to I'm not going to be around
Speaker 1: for fifty years to get all four hundred million, right.
Speaker 2: But it does go to your family though if you die,
Speaker 2: like it does keep coming. Oh I'm not worried about them, yeah,
Speaker 2: but meaning it doesn't stop. Yeah, most people take the
Speaker 2: cash option.
Speaker 1: And that's the end. And that ended the drought eight
Speaker 1: years since someone in Georgia had hit the Big One.
Speaker 2: Two tickets worth a million bucks were sold in Pennsylvania
Speaker 2: and Texas. So that is from North Jersey Publication Lunchbox.
Speaker 2: You wouldn't want your kids to get some of that money,
Speaker 2: like after you die, they'd have it from the Lumpsomi took.
Speaker 1: I mean they'll have it either way. I want to
Speaker 1: enjoy more of.
Speaker 2: It, Okay. The old oldest person in the US dies
Speaker 2: at one hundred and fifteen years old. Elizabeth Francis of Houston,
Speaker 2: Texas died yesterday of one hundred and fifteen gos. That's old.
Speaker 2: The longeva Quest database, which keeps track of the world's
Speaker 2: oldest people, says she was born in Louisiana during the
Speaker 2: Taft administration in nineteen oh nine and lived through two
Speaker 2: World Wars and twenty US presidents. She was living with
Speaker 2: her ninety six year old daughter when she died. Like
Speaker 2: it's straight genetics, Like, yeah, daughter's ninety sex, you're one fifteen,
Speaker 2: she's ninety six. That's some good genes right there. The
Speaker 2: eldest person in the US that has not died is
Speaker 2: Naomi Whitehead of Greenville, Pennsylvania, who is one hundred and
Speaker 2: fourteen years old. That's from ABC News. Wow, that's the story,
Speaker 2: that's the headline. We see the most oldest person now
Speaker 2: dies title to have what's what's like the highest tough
Speaker 2: title to get harder than to have hard hardest to get. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but once you get it, you're like, uh, oh, what
Speaker 2: are you saying? What's the highest? Like I've I've heard
Speaker 2: one fourteen. I don't believe anything because the oldest person
Speaker 2: ever recorded was one twenty two. I think in the world, yes,
Speaker 2: but I don't believe anything not American, right, you never
Speaker 2: know of it because who who the crap knows? Even
Speaker 2: like the Little League World Series, they got kids we
Speaker 2: can't verify at thirteen, and they're showing up when they're
Speaker 2: like sixteen or seventeen, and that's in the past twenty years.
Speaker 2: So if we look up the oldest people ever, like
Speaker 2: if you'l looked that up for me ever were just American.
Speaker 2: The oldest person ever recorded was Genie Kalmant, a French
Speaker 2: woman who lived be one twenty two and one hundred
Speaker 2: and sixty four days old. Yeah. I feel like there
Speaker 2: are some less I would say more third world type
Speaker 2: countries where they don't keep records that they claim people
Speaker 2: are like one thirty or one four. Yeah, because they
Speaker 2: don't know. They just count the suns.
Speaker 4: It's like our dogs, we don't really know, Like they're like,
Speaker 4: we think he's the dog's probably around like nine years old,
Speaker 4: but they don't know.
Speaker 2: You mean, if you adopted it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like my dog, we adopted her. They told us
Speaker 4: she's probably around four.
Speaker 2: I think these are the hundred one hundred oldest known
Speaker 2: Americans Americans, I believe, Yes. In Europe, I think I'm
Speaker 2: gonna believe too. That French lady one twenty two, I
Speaker 2: think I'm gonna I think I'm gonna go with that.
Speaker 2: France seems like kind of trustworthy developed to develop country.
Speaker 2: The oldest American woman ever was Sarah Noss. She died
Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety nine at one hundred and nineteen years old.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 2: Maria Bryn Joss of California died at one hundred and
Speaker 2: seventeen and twenty twenty four. Theyde hundred svent hundred sixty
Speaker 2: undred vteen under SIXE hundred sixteen. How old was lady
Speaker 2: just died one fifteen fifteen, So overall in America she
Speaker 2: had at one, two, three, four or five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve,
Speaker 2: thirteen fourteen. Keep going fifteen sixteen seventeen, she'd have been
Speaker 2: like eighteenth or nineteenth overall ranked all time American all
Speaker 2: time American oldest, she's like top twenty all time. Shout
Speaker 2: out to her homeowners come home to find a stranger
Speaker 2: napping on their couch. Some NASAs, Virginia residents are weirded
Speaker 2: out but unhurt after finding a stranger sleeping on their couch.
Speaker 2: Police responded to a house was like, hey, we got
Speaker 2: a problem here, and they detained Yanya Torres, who was
Speaker 2: found with drugs on him. Nothing was taken from the home.
Speaker 2: He was confused about where he was napping. He was
Speaker 2: charged with burglary, drug possession of public intos from Fox
Speaker 2: five DC. He's lucky they didn't take a bat to him, yep,
Speaker 2: or wake him up, and then when he freaked out,
Speaker 2: they freaked out back and shot him. Because I don't
Speaker 2: know that I would have showed up at the house
Speaker 2: with someone I don't know sleeping on my couch and
Speaker 2: then everybody else in the house knows, like I would
Speaker 2: ask my wife, what's up?
Speaker 3: Do you know?
Speaker 2: Is this your friend? First, Oh, we have a lot
Speaker 2: of questions, ask if it is your friend because I
Speaker 2: never met him and wide sleep on the couch. Secondly,
Speaker 2: you don't know him. All right, here goes. We call
Speaker 2: nine one one first, and then we wait and if
Speaker 2: he wakes up, it's showtime and I don't know what
Speaker 2: showtime means, so we just watch and if he wakes up,
Speaker 2: something's about to happen, because that's really scary because you
Speaker 2: don't know what they're gonna do. Tom Brady went into
Speaker 2: the wrong house. Remember that story Tom Brady, Yeah, when
Speaker 2: Tampa drafted him. We may want to look this up.
Speaker 2: Tom Brady walked into the wrong house with a bunch
Speaker 2: of bags, thinking that was the house that he was
Speaker 2: staying in. Oh, and the guy was like, you're in
Speaker 2: the wrong house, but you're Tom Brady basically, so that's okay. Brady,
Speaker 2: the new quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, was visiting
Speaker 2: the home of Byron Leftwich, who was the offensive coordinator
Speaker 2: at the time. He mistakenly entered the home of left
Speaker 2: which's neighbor David Kramer. Instead, his house looks very similar,
Speaker 2: and Kramer had left his door unlocked because he was
Speaker 2: selling his home. Brady walked in without knocking, carrying Duffel
Speaker 2: bags and dropped him on the floor. Brady realized he
Speaker 2: was in the wrong house, apologized, and quickly left with
Speaker 2: a smile. Kramer said he was surprised and didn't think
Speaker 2: he'd ever seen someone leave a house so fast. The
Speaker 2: incident was widely reported. The Internet joked at Brady was
Speaker 2: now officially a Florida man. Kramer said the incident helped
Speaker 2: sell his house that he still cheers on Brady and
Speaker 2: the Buccaneers. We could have lost Tom Brady. Of course
Speaker 2: he didn't know. Wow, that's a funny one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that happened to my buddy, Like he told me
Speaker 4: the story like a year ago that he had same thing.
Speaker 4: Accidently left his front door unlocked. He was in bed,
Speaker 4: they were all sleeping, and he heard something downstairs, and
Speaker 4: so his wife's like, oh, go check it.
Speaker 2: And he was a cop.
Speaker 4: He was an next cop, and so he got his gun,
Speaker 4: walked downstairs. There's a guy sleeping on the couch. All
Speaker 4: his bags were right like right around the couch and
Speaker 4: he woke him up with like with a gun right
Speaker 4: to his face, like get up, don't move your hands,
Speaker 4: and you're gonna walk out of my house.
Speaker 2: Gary for everybody, Yes, And the guy was like, look, look,
Speaker 2: look man, I'm sorry. Look, I'm here for a bachelor party.
Speaker 2: Like this is the address they gave me. I'm assuming
Speaker 2: everyone's asleep or they were out, like sucks for everybody,
Speaker 2: and it was their neighbor's house. He was supposed to
Speaker 2: be at their neighbor's house. Did they give him the
Speaker 2: wrong address or did he go in the wrong house?
Speaker 2: Both are in accidental. What do you think happened? I
Speaker 2: think he just went to the wrong house. God, I
Speaker 2: could have ended so bad.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: One of my friends, Ben Rector, the singer, he was like, hey, uh,
Speaker 2: I don't I don't why. We're going over his house
Speaker 2: to drop something off. And his house and his neighbor's
Speaker 2: house looked a lot alike. And we pulled up and
Speaker 2: there was a lady we didn't know in his house
Speaker 2: and we're flashing and we're flashing the lights and we
Speaker 2: went to we didn't go in, but that lady had
Speaker 2: to think somebody was about to come in to kill
Speaker 2: hercause we were flashing lights in the window, like who
Speaker 2: are you hello, Hello, And then she picked up her
Speaker 2: phone goes, we're not at the right house. So we
Speaker 2: backed out. Didn't you call Ben and be like, well,
Speaker 2: we didn't want We got out of the driveway like candle.
Speaker 2: I think somebody scared. I think we scared somebody. But
Speaker 2: we had been to his house one hundred times, just
Speaker 2: not at night. Yeah, it's all different at night. And
Speaker 2: there were no numbers anywhere. We can't see an numbers anywhere.
Speaker 2: People are putting apple air tags on their political signs
Speaker 2: to keep them from being stolen. And this has happened,
Speaker 2: not even just in the presidential but senate races. This
Speaker 2: is happening a lot where people from the opposing team
Speaker 2: we'll call they were going to stealing signs, which, by
Speaker 2: the way, a sign has never influenced a vote. I
Speaker 2: wouldn't think so. I don't think you ever drive by
Speaker 2: a house and you're like, man, I'm a little undecided.
Speaker 2: Next sign we see in the yard winds Well. There
Speaker 2: are those people, though, that believe in signs of sign
Speaker 2: differ kind of sign I think signs mostly they're not
Speaker 2: to influence votes, but they're mostly too. If you would
Speaker 2: put a team's banner in front of your house or
Speaker 2: like a Auburn flag, you're not trying to get people
Speaker 2: root for Auburn. You're just showing you everybody, this is
Speaker 2: an Auburn household. Yeah, so it's mostly that more than
Speaker 2: it is we're trying to convince me, especially on the
Speaker 2: national level. On the very very local level, I do
Speaker 2: think there's something to a sign because at least it
Speaker 2: gets the name out there. And if you have a
Speaker 2: cold design or a good name, or I would treat
Speaker 2: signs if I were running for a local office. I
Speaker 2: only know this because of the research that we've done
Speaker 2: or that I've seen companies do about artists when they
Speaker 2: do concerts what they call face teaes. They sell better
Speaker 2: than non face tease of the artist, meaning you've put
Speaker 2: a picture the artist on it, people buy it. I
Speaker 2: put a picture of the candidate, unless you or she's
Speaker 2: real ugly. I put a picture of the candidate on
Speaker 2: the sign so people feel like they would have a relationship,
Speaker 2: and if they don't, like we see a picture of somebody,
Speaker 2: we feel like we have a relationship with them. So
Speaker 2: much more than if we just see a name of somebody,
Speaker 2: like I can picture four or five people's name the
Speaker 2: trunning for office here just in our town. I don't
Speaker 2: know what they look like. But isn't that the point though,
Speaker 2: Like to have their name too when you go in
Speaker 2: and you don't really know what you're voting for, but oh,
Speaker 2: I remember Garcia. But the more point would be to
Speaker 2: have a face so you feel like you know them
Speaker 2: even more. So you remember the same yeah, but you
Speaker 2: remember it even more if you saw their face.
Speaker 4: It's just hard to vote on those like city councils,
Speaker 4: Seat number five. I don't because I don't know don't
Speaker 4: know who that is, but I have seen Garcia sign,
Speaker 4: so maybe I'll vote for them.
Speaker 2: And imagine if you saw Garcia's face, Oh, I've really
Speaker 2: leave an impression. I know who that is, so yeah.
Speaker 2: Face teas even like logos for podcasts, I've seen research
Speaker 2: say that if you put the face of the person
Speaker 2: that's doing the podcast, people will stop on it more
Speaker 2: because they feel like, oh, this is who is doing it.
Speaker 2: I'm not just seeing the name of a show. I'm
Speaker 2: seeing the face of the person doing it, and that
Speaker 2: engagement is so much higher. When you put the face
Speaker 2: of the person doing the podcast on it. Now, I
Speaker 2: say that the bib bon shit does not have a
Speaker 2: face on it, but the Bobby cast does for that
Speaker 2: exact reason, and twenty five Whistles does for that exact reason.
Speaker 2: Because people may find either one of those and be like,
Speaker 2: I don't know what is this? Okay, he looks like
Speaker 2: somebody that I want to punch in the face, or
Speaker 2: like but yeah, I know face, I put my face
Speaker 2: on a political sign if it were me. But yeah,
Speaker 2: they're putting Apple air tags on him, which SEMs weird
Speaker 2: because the apple a attag is worth more than the
Speaker 2: political sign.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 2: Like if you still at all, and like what are
Speaker 2: you gonna do? Go show up at the house and
Speaker 2: like fight somebody. Well, I saw a story where a
Speaker 2: lady did do that. That's what I'm saying that it's
Speaker 2: not good for anybody. A woman finds a strange metal
Speaker 2: rod baked into her pizza. Hut pizza. I want to
Speaker 2: shout out. This makes me want to go to pizza
Speaker 2: because it's not a pizza problem. This is like probably
Speaker 2: just rogue or mess up. I love pizza. It's the
Speaker 2: best a woman has been left horrified after finding a
Speaker 2: strange metal object and better than a takeaway she order
Speaker 2: from Pizza Hut. Amber twenty four showed a photo of
Speaker 2: the bizarre discovery after discovering it baked into the crust
Speaker 2: of her Marguerite to pizza. I'm looking at it. It
Speaker 2: looks like something fell off of a grill. It's not
Speaker 2: like somebody had something metals, Like, let's really try to
Speaker 2: choke this person to death, right, Mike, looks like a
Speaker 2: handled or something. It looks like something fell off somewhere
Speaker 2: a machine and fell into it and accidentally got baked.
Speaker 2: The contraption, which is hooked at both ends, covers nearly
Speaker 2: the entire edge of one slice of pizza. Several commentators
Speaker 2: pointing out the object was likely attached to the oven
Speaker 2: fell into the pizza while being cooked. I said that too,
Speaker 2: I'm a commentator. Yet, despite the horrific health and safety hazard,
Speaker 2: she didn't receive a refund for her run meal. That's odd.
Speaker 2: That is odd. Also, there's probably so many people that
Speaker 2: are showing up going I found this on my I
Speaker 2: found this little mermaid toy in my pizza. No you didn't, sir,
Speaker 2: You're right though, all I can think of a restaurant.
Speaker 2: I'm sure people try to get away their crapple. I
Speaker 2: mean lunchboxes. I put a hair in it. That's at
Speaker 2: the restaurant. That's not even like you know you sick. No,
Speaker 2: just oh god goodness, here, but I did.
Speaker 1: You used to put hairs in the food all the
Speaker 1: time at school. So I get another lunch.
Speaker 2: You just coughed and like, and you just try to
Speaker 2: sidetrack us with a story.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I had a little fli in my throat, a little big.
Speaker 1: It's been the same thing since A been bug battling.
Speaker 1: It's been like two weeks.
Speaker 2: Man as a battle, it's a royal rumble.
Speaker 1: Little allergies up in there.
Speaker 2: A roller coaster halts mid air. Oh no, as terrified
Speaker 2: passengers are forced to climb down on foot. Oh.
Speaker 4: I think I saw it on TikTok. I think there
Speaker 4: was video of this. People walking down the roller coaster.
Speaker 2: Were they strapped while walking down? Did they get some
Speaker 2: harnesses up for them? I don't know. It's scary anyway,
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I'm watching it right now. They are
Speaker 2: not harnessed, and they're walking. They're walking down. They're holding
Speaker 2: onto the side rail, but there's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
Speaker 2: eight of them. Now, oh my god, there's like twenty
Speaker 2: five of them. Yeah, they look like ants and it's
Speaker 2: a big circular thing. Imagine like a real circular staircase,
Speaker 2: but imagine that's a roller coaster and they're having to
Speaker 2: walk down. Oh my god. But that's not bad. The
Speaker 2: bad ones are when they're stuck upside down. Oh no,
Speaker 2: this is But those they don't. They just stay and
Speaker 2: that sucks. Physically, I'm saying, to have to walk down
Speaker 2: this scary where anybody could fall off, that sucks. Yeah,
Speaker 2: being held upside down is really that'd be terrible. You
Speaker 2: still into roller coasters? Like what do you mean into them?
Speaker 2: Like would you go on a roller coaster? Now? Like
Speaker 2: at your age you still have sex roller coasters? Man,
Speaker 2: I stopped that four years ago and did the documentary.
Speaker 2: Not what I meant crush. I've never been in I've
Speaker 2: never been into them, But like I like roller We
Speaker 2: went on a roller coaster. I like roller coaster. You've
Speaker 2: never been into roller coasters, that's one thing to add. No,
Speaker 2: even like as a fan, even like somebody who liked
Speaker 2: roller coasters, I've never been passionate about roller coaster. But
Speaker 2: some people are like, Oh, I'm going to six Flags again,
Speaker 2: ride all the roller coast. But you said, are you
Speaker 2: still into roller coaster? You're right, okay, would you still
Speaker 2: ride a roller absolutely for sure. Okay, I haven't been
Speaker 2: hurt on one yet, so yes, like if I guess
Speaker 2: one jerked my neck pretty bad. And like, because I'm
Speaker 2: obviously getting older, I'm not twenty five. Yeah, but I'm
Speaker 2: not into Rust's just ad.
Speaker 1: It was weird how you said it.
Speaker 2: It was a weird way to say why you're not
Speaker 2: into them anymore.
Speaker 4: Well, it's just that when we like travel places and
Speaker 4: there's like an amusement park, my kids always want to go,
Speaker 4: always want to go to a roller coaster, and I'm
Speaker 4: always just like you guys go like I can. I
Speaker 4: don't really want because I never used to get nauseous
Speaker 4: now on a roller coaster.
Speaker 2: That's a great point. I'm thinking the last time I
Speaker 2: even rode one though, because I'm not anti but I
Speaker 2: haven't even been to a place I don't think to
Speaker 2: ride one. Like when would I go to a theme park?
Speaker 6: You don't get na on roller coasters?
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I'm I've been on one a long time,
Speaker 2: So I don't know.
Speaker 4: Didn't you go to like a in Missouri somewhere like A, Yeah,
Speaker 4: you just went to an amusement park like last year.
Speaker 2: Last year you talked about it, Keep going, You and
Speaker 2: Caitlyn went to one. Keep going because I do not
Speaker 2: remember this.
Speaker 6: You guys don't remember talking Like I was gonna say,
Speaker 6: Disney would have been the last one.
Speaker 2: I feel like, no, didn't write anything crazy. Disney doesn't
Speaker 2: have at least they had nothing crazy. They got good stuff.
Speaker 6: Have some roller coasters, but they're not wild roller coasters
Speaker 6: like like.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they have a tron one now. So I got
Speaker 2: on one of those things. There's a big screen and
Speaker 2: you ride the thing and they're like virtual scrap what Eddie.
Speaker 2: I'm still waiting on what.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 2: I want to say.
Speaker 4: It was somewhere in Middle America, like you guys went
Speaker 4: and you came back talking about how like it was
Speaker 4: pretty cool.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: He went to Missouri, Missouri. Missouri has a part some
Speaker 2: kind of the guy that.
Speaker 1: Owns Bass pro Shop.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's no theme part Silver City Dollars Dollars. Okay,
Speaker 2: so we did go to Silver Dollars City. Goodye I
Speaker 2: forgot we even went, but they don't. They didn't have
Speaker 2: crazy roller coasters. They had like a ride that was
Speaker 2: closing and you get in it because it had gone
Speaker 2: for like fifty years, not because it's broken her, but
Speaker 2: it wasn't. It was fire in the hole. And that
Speaker 2: was a roller coaster. I don't know you call it coaster.
Speaker 2: It was a ride. It was a ride, and in
Speaker 2: it there's a lot of stuff happening, but it's so old,
Speaker 2: like imagine a mild roller coaster fifty years ago. So
Speaker 2: mostly it was for because she had been on it
Speaker 2: as a kid. So we did that. So I'm not
Speaker 2: crazy they have a new one. They built a new one,
Speaker 2: I think so. I remember you talking about how cool
Speaker 2: Silver Dollar City was. Silver Dollars City was cool. Yes,
Speaker 2: it's cool. And where where it's like a walk around Branson? Okay,
Speaker 2: Brandon near Branson? Yeah, thanks a bunch of blocks, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: But no, I didn't ride a roller coaster. I'm trying
Speaker 2: to think the last time I rode a one. We went.
Speaker 2: We rode the New York New York one probably like man,
Speaker 2: that was probably over ten years ago. Vegas, remember that. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I think we stalled the picture walk to the top
Speaker 2: of the hotel.
Speaker 1: You wrote when you went this last time I did.
Speaker 2: With my son again one of those like where like,
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna do this. He's like, come on, dad, Okay, I.
Speaker 1: Went on one in what May. I went to Dollywood.
Speaker 1: I rode a roller coaster the first time in years.
Speaker 1: It's pretty crazy.
Speaker 4: Dollywood is awesome, dude, Dollywood is growsome. Right, I've never
Speaker 4: been got you guys should go well, I mean, I
Speaker 4: don't know, we have kids.
Speaker 2: It's different.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like I thought, Okay, this is gonna be a
Speaker 1: little you know what is this place? Like everybody talks
Speaker 1: about in Tollywood. They're gonna have a couple of rides.
Speaker 1: It is fantastic. And they have legit rides. That was legit.
Speaker 1: It was great.
Speaker 2: Not they don't have legit rides. They have a love Jit.
Speaker 2: I'm if it's legit, I'm me in. Let's take him
Speaker 2: Meta roll here Raymundo. All right, a couple other things.
Speaker 2: Let's do some boy smails. Let's go to Steve from
Speaker 2: Saint Louis number one.
Speaker 3: First of all, I love the show. Second question, I'm
Speaker 3: hoping you can answer the subtle a dispute between myself
Speaker 3: and my wife. So what are go to play a concert?
Speaker 3: Does the venue pay them to come play at that venue?
Speaker 3: Or do the artist get the ticket sales from that venue?
Speaker 3: Pase help us solve that dispute. Neither one of us
Speaker 3: know the correct answer. Thank you.
Speaker 2: You're not gonna like to hear this, but you're both wrong. Now,
Speaker 2: there are the occasional version where both of those things happen.
Speaker 2: But if it's a if it's a venue where it's
Speaker 2: a known artist, what happens is a promoter. In this case,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say Eddie is the promoter and I'm the artist.
Speaker 2: Eddie the promoter puts on shows all the time. So
Speaker 2: I go, hey, I put a note out. I'm touring
Speaker 2: and I'm nationally send a note to all the promoters
Speaker 2: around the country. And Boots, I live in like McCallum,
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter. Oh, it doesn't matter where you live.
Speaker 2: And so all Eddie's going to do is go, Okay,
Speaker 2: this guy here can sell ten thousand tickets, we're gonna
Speaker 2: we're gonna give him a guarantee of five dollars to
Speaker 2: play the show. And like most of my deals are
Speaker 2: like eighty five fifteen, meaning if it sells over eighty
Speaker 2: five percent capacity, the last fifteen percent is then a
Speaker 2: profit share, so that that is the bonus for like
Speaker 2: a sellout, So I'll make my five dollars, and the
Speaker 2: goal of the promoter is to make more than five
Speaker 2: dollars from all ticket sales. There's always some relationship with alcohol.
Speaker 2: Sometimes there's parking. Sometimes there's merche because we as an artist,
Speaker 2: like if we do merch, we have to cut in
Speaker 2: the venue or the promoter. But mostly it's the guarantee
Speaker 2: that the promoter pays the talent in the contract. So
Speaker 2: as soon as it's on the contract six months out,
Speaker 2: you get like half the fee, then the second half
Speaker 2: once the show is over. But it's all based on
Speaker 2: a guarantee the promoter says you're going to get. The
Speaker 2: promoter is then on the hook to sell enough tickets
Speaker 2: to make more than the guarantee that he's already paid
Speaker 2: the artist. Now, if it is a very very small
Speaker 2: place where just an artist like I'm gonna play and
Speaker 2: there's like sixty people, or it's a bar, that could
Speaker 2: be like money at the door, but like concerts that
Speaker 2: you're going to where buy tickets, it's a promoter so
Speaker 2: the promoter is the one that buys the billboards, like
Speaker 2: if it's if it's not selling, or even if it
Speaker 2: or pre sell, or if it's when they're about to
Speaker 2: announce a sell. So it doesn't always have to be
Speaker 2: if it's not selling or there's at times in contracts
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter how it's selling. You're going to promote
Speaker 2: it A, B and C ways like that's agreed upon
Speaker 2: as well ahead of time, so it doesn't always have
Speaker 2: to be if it's not selling. But both of you
Speaker 2: can feel like you're not wrong because both of you
Speaker 2: are wrong the other one's wrong, right. So yeah, the
Speaker 2: venue doesn't the venue is bought by the promoter. Oh,
Speaker 2: the promoter part of his fee is like okay, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna rent the venue for a dollar. Does he have
Speaker 2: to do all this in advance? Everything?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: I mean yeah, I mean it's all it's all contractual,
Speaker 2: so it doesn't matter if it's advanced or not, like
Speaker 2: it's even if it's I mean, I guess you could
Speaker 2: not do it in advance, but then your suit if
Speaker 2: you don't pay it. Yeah, but it's all communicated and
Speaker 2: official in advance. That's how it works. A promoter is
Speaker 2: the middle man who does it. Occasionally it's done differently,
Speaker 2: but for the most part it's not. That's generally how
Speaker 2: it works. It's a good breakdown. I hope I said
Speaker 2: that in a way that made sense. Let's go to
Speaker 2: Melissa ray Cole number three.
Speaker 5: Call and say that I love the show.
Speaker 6: I had a really awful day to day, but I
Speaker 6: turned on my Spotify and you were the person that
Speaker 6: popped up.
Speaker 3: So that's going to cheer me up.
Speaker 2: I love for you, all of you.
Speaker 1: Guys, love what you do.
Speaker 2: Thank you very much, appreciate that. Another thing that can
Speaker 2: happen is a promoter can buy a whole tour. So
Speaker 2: oh yeah, and that happens a lot with like a
Speaker 2: Live Nation or the Big I mean that's a promoter, right,
Speaker 2: it's a big so they can go, Dan and Shay,
Speaker 2: you're gonna do twenty shows for us, these twenty venues.
Speaker 2: We're going to give you eighty dollars. And when you
Speaker 2: do the math and you break it all down, and
Speaker 2: because again they don't pay for any promoter venue, nothing
Speaker 2: pays for anything. That's the money you get. And you
Speaker 2: have to make sure that you can pay for all
Speaker 2: your lights and amps, that you bring along your bus. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they don't pay for any of that food, everything. They
Speaker 2: just give you that up front. If it makes sense,
Speaker 2: then you take that deal. And that happens a lot
Speaker 2: of times as big artists, like I'll do if I'm
Speaker 2: touring to a stand up I'll do four or five
Speaker 2: shows with a regional promoter and do four or five
Speaker 2: shows with a different regional promoter. I don't ever do
Speaker 2: any national stuff because I'm not big enough to do
Speaker 2: the national stuff. But I can do like in the
Speaker 2: Midwest and like Saint Louis, you know, to other parts
Speaker 2: of Missouri, Northwest Arkansas. I can work with one promoter
Speaker 2: because they generally have that area. But yeah, that's kind
Speaker 2: of how works. Give me Leah from Pennsylvania. I was
Speaker 2: sitting behind a clard red light light Ungrey, but where
Speaker 2: I'm going.
Speaker 3: So I did a little phoebe see Sunder's finger out
Speaker 3: the window and slipped me off and then proceeded to
Speaker 3: flip me off driving down the road. I wasn't being aggressive,
Speaker 3: I wasn't being angry. I even waist back like, hey.
Speaker 2: Just one of the you know it's time to go.
Speaker 2: We're still driving and they're.
Speaker 3: Hands are out the wine?
Speaker 5: Who's flipping me off?
Speaker 1: I didn't do the aggressive look.
Speaker 2: I was just trying to be friendly. What's wrong with people?
Speaker 2: Some people just hear a honk and they get mad.
Speaker 2: I wish there were two horns, a little horn for angry,
Speaker 2: little horn for nice, little horn for I'm looking out
Speaker 2: for you. I know you're on your phone. You're now
Speaker 2: it's green, so go. But yeah, if you hank it
Speaker 2: some people and they're I think most people. If you
Speaker 2: just get honked out, your initial reactions, why what?
Speaker 3: What? What?
Speaker 2: And so I'd never flipped anybody off, So the flipping
Speaker 2: off thing is odd, at least for me. But today,
Speaker 2: driving in oh no, what happened? No, coming into work,
Speaker 2: I saw a person make three massive driving mistakes. First
Speaker 2: of all, anybody that has like a dent there in
Speaker 2: their bumper, a windshield that's missing, scratches all down the
Speaker 2: side of their car. No one has a windshield missing
Speaker 2: the front Oh no, no, the side wind she can
Speaker 2: be missing. They have like all the side. Yeah, whatever
Speaker 2: it is the windshield, back windshield counts, that's a wind chill.
Speaker 2: No windshield is the front window? What do you call
Speaker 2: the back? What do you call the bat. It's just
Speaker 2: a rear window. It's just the window in the back.
Speaker 4: Oh, I don't know it's called a windshield because you're
Speaker 4: going in the wind and it's it's like it's made
Speaker 4: a different stuff too.
Speaker 2: It won't it won't bring. I would think the back
Speaker 2: windshield is called a windshield too. I could be wrong.
Speaker 6: It's called rear window, rear windshield, or rear glass.
Speaker 2: So real rear windshield, thank you? Yeah, yeah, take that
Speaker 2: back all right. I was willing to walk back mine.
Speaker 2: I've got a windshield is the front, but you could
Speaker 2: when you're going in reverse, what is it doing? How faster?
Speaker 2: It's still shielding the wind. Okay, So my point is
Speaker 2: if you see somebody would like a trash bag over
Speaker 2: the rear windshield. And again, we all make mistakes, and
Speaker 2: I watch out for them because they've made a lot
Speaker 2: of mistakes and they have no regard for themselves or
Speaker 2: others and their car. They just run through like it's
Speaker 2: crash up derby. I saw a car today, the same car,
Speaker 2: first of all, did not go and light turn green.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna judge anybody for that because they may
Speaker 2: have been looking at their phone. I try to look
Speaker 2: at my phone. But when they saw it was green,
Speaker 2: I did not hawk at them. They like slammed the
Speaker 2: gas and like like jerked themselves because they were like,
Speaker 2: oh God, un to get out of you. And I
Speaker 2: was like, that's interesting. Then I saw them cut a
Speaker 2: to the middle lane to probably a little too early
Speaker 2: where there were still cars that could use the middle
Speaker 2: lane to go the other direction, and almost hit somebody
Speaker 2: head on, same car, same car doing the second thing.
Speaker 2: So I then had to go and I was going
Speaker 2: the same way like I was following that car's route
Speaker 2: to get to work this morning. I almost had on
Speaker 2: collision after they missed the green light, and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 2: this is trouble. At number two, I was like, this
Speaker 2: is trouble. At number three, we're by the building and
Speaker 2: there is a part where when you turn into the
Speaker 2: road that drives up the ramp into this building, the
Speaker 2: lane turns into parking on the side of the street.
Speaker 2: The car did not realize that the lane turned into parking,
Speaker 2: so the car the light turns and starts to go
Speaker 2: and then almost nails the car that's just parked on
Speaker 2: the side of the road and to go and swerves
Speaker 2: and almost nails a car. I saw all this in
Speaker 2: like six minutes. If that car made it to wherever
Speaker 2: they were getting safely today, God bless them. I don't
Speaker 2: know how in six minutes, saw three massive mistakes. And
Speaker 2: I don't think of because they were drunk, because they
Speaker 2: weren't driving wobbly. They were just making bad decisions. But
Speaker 2: they also had a dent in their bumper. And that's
Speaker 2: what you gotta watch out for.
Speaker 3: It.
Speaker 2: It's like if see somebody, uh with black eye, big
Speaker 2: dude and black eyes and bruises on his neck and face,
Speaker 2: like he's probably gonna fight. Yeah, probably, Like, don't don't
Speaker 2: get into it. That dude at the game, he's probably
Speaker 2: gonna fight. You're right.
Speaker 4: Anytime I get cut off sometimes, like I look at
Speaker 4: the car, I'm like, look, there's a there's a dent
Speaker 4: right where they would have hit me if I wouldn't
Speaker 4: have slowed down. Like that's just the kind of person
Speaker 4: they are.
Speaker 1: But it is stupid that we have a lane you
Speaker 1: can drive in and then all of a sudden it
Speaker 1: just turns into parking.
Speaker 2: That is kind of dumb.
Speaker 1: It's so dumb.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like you understand what he's saying. So but what
Speaker 2: if they just never would have put a lane there
Speaker 2: and it was all parking.
Speaker 1: That's fine.
Speaker 2: They're actually get no because there's some of the roads
Speaker 2: where people don't drive as much on these roads, which
Speaker 2: is why they limit the lanes. Right, It's all about traffic,
Speaker 2: so massive amounts of traffic, more lanes. When they feel
Speaker 2: like that, will feel like they can have cameras. They
Speaker 2: know that lesser amount of people go and use these roads,
Speaker 2: they than to turn those into parking. But you know,
Speaker 2: it's unfortunate if you're not paying attention. But that's also
Speaker 2: why there are traffic lights there and signs that says
Speaker 2: there's parking, and signs that's say heads up. I mean,
Speaker 2: this is embarrassing. But one time I did, like think
Speaker 2: that I was in traffic. I think we've all done that.
Speaker 2: Sometimes I realized there's no one in that car. It's
Speaker 2: a park car. I mean, I've almost run up on
Speaker 2: a car before, but like, oh god, I didn't know
Speaker 2: where I was. Don't be embarrassing. We've all done something
Speaker 2: like that. But I saw the car do three things
Speaker 2: within six minutes. All right, let me see, I thought
Speaker 2: you were gonna say, and it was amy, but it wasn't.
Speaker 2: I guess no, she's not here to defend herself, so
Speaker 2: I wouldn't do that, uh say, if there was anything
Speaker 2: else that, I don't have anything else that I need
Speaker 2: to do, Like on my list, I've done all my
Speaker 2: check marks for post show Morgan, what's happening with you? Generally?
Speaker 6: Generally? I mean, you know, just living it up over here,
Speaker 6: trying to go out do.
Speaker 2: A bunch of things, you know, pretty general, he said words, Well,
Speaker 2: you said generally, So I how's how's the podcast coming?
Speaker 2: The podcast is.
Speaker 6: Going really well. I just had Judah from Judah and
Speaker 6: the Lion on and that was really cool.
Speaker 2: I know, I don't know what you talked about, but
Speaker 2: I'm assuming there's some mental health talk there.
Speaker 5: Yeah. So, because their new album, The Process, is all
Speaker 5: about the Five Stages of Grief, I did a grief
Speaker 5: episode and brought him on to talk about like why
Speaker 5: they created that album and what stories inspired them to
Speaker 5: write an album.
Speaker 2: All about grief? Did is that episode out or do
Speaker 2: you just do it?
Speaker 6: Nope, it's out.
Speaker 2: It's out this week.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was this one with a psychotherapist was the
Speaker 5: expert in the first half.
Speaker 6: And then he came on.
Speaker 2: So I check out Morgan's podcast.
Speaker 6: It is called Take This Personally.
Speaker 2: Now that your real name is out there to people, like,
Speaker 2: are they do you worry about that?
Speaker 6: I mean a little bit. I definitely have some interesting
Speaker 6: people reaching out to me different ways that didn't before.
Speaker 2: How's that they're.
Speaker 5: Finding my email or different my phone number somehow is
Speaker 5: getting out there, which I've tried to figure out where
Speaker 5: that's coming from, and I can't seem to find that.
Speaker 5: So I think having the last name allows them to
Speaker 5: look up things, so that sucks. Yeah, But I mean
Speaker 5: also like it's my name, so like, how do you
Speaker 5: how do you not?
Speaker 2: That's true? Eddie has a very generic name, which is
Speaker 2: kind of cool. Oh you searched me, and there are
Speaker 2: hundreds of us out there, thousands even probably yeah, even
Speaker 2: like Mike and his because you know, when they did
Speaker 2: the CMA, they put everybody real name except for mine,
Speaker 2: which is hilarious. They put everybody real name except for mine,
Speaker 2: like they like deep Dove and found people's real names.
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter, Like we don't hide from it. And
Speaker 2: my wife uses our real name. She's not gonna be
Speaker 2: Kaitlin Bones because she was like I would not be
Speaker 2: I wum not use a fake name. I'm not that,
Speaker 2: but like, Mike's name is a pretty generic name for
Speaker 2: a Hispanic man, so generic that there are people that
Speaker 2: have been arrested with that same name that will keep
Speaker 2: them out of places. Like we were in Canada because
Speaker 2: our show is in some Canadian places, and they like
Speaker 2: him in the airport in Toronto, right, Yeah, for like
Speaker 2: an hour, I couldn't do anything, even like getting on
Speaker 2: the American Idol lot. They were like, nope, can't let
Speaker 2: you in. We don't know what the guy did. Mike Mike, Yeah,
Speaker 2: but I'm but his name is so common that I'm
Speaker 2: sure a lot of guys his name did bad stuff.
Speaker 2: Why can't we celebrate to people whose name did ay
Speaker 2: good stuf?
Speaker 3: I know?
Speaker 2: And he show up me like, oh you're him, here's
Speaker 2: a reward. Never happens. It happens to my dad too,
Speaker 2: trying to get back from Mexico and they actually told
Speaker 2: him that the guy they were looking for is wanted
Speaker 2: for murder. So with your dad's name. Yeah, so we
Speaker 2: both have very common Mexican names. I got sued one
Speaker 2: that's terrifying. It wasn't me, It wasn't for me. But
Speaker 2: I got served.
Speaker 4: What did what did the papers say that I I'm
Speaker 4: a taxi driver and I was involved in a hit
Speaker 4: and run? Oh the person that guy hit issuing me?
Speaker 2: And it's crazy. I was living with my You have

Speaker 3: You kid?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I was nineteen eighteen, but an adult? An adult? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Did you have to go and formally say I'm not
Speaker 2: this person? Or did you just just not show up?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 4: I let them know, Like whoever was doing the lawsuit,
Speaker 4: I'm like, hey, that's that's not me, the person who
Speaker 4: served you. No, no, no, no, like the whatever the
Speaker 4: law firm that was on the paper. So you called him, yeah, like, hey,
Speaker 4: that's not me. Whoever you're looking for, definitely not me.
Speaker 2: Lunchbox's dad, Yeah, that was sad.
Speaker 1: He got called by the news one day saying, hey,
Speaker 1: you're still playing on me in Santa Claus. He's like,
Speaker 1: what you like with these new allegations.
Speaker 2: Of new allegation, Oh my goodness.
Speaker 1: Of I don't even know if it was, yeah, a
Speaker 1: relationship with a child, touching a child, I don't know.
Speaker 1: But he was like, I've never been Santa and you
Speaker 1: turn on the five o'clock news.
Speaker 2: He didn't say he's never been with a kid. He goes.
Speaker 1: He was like, then you got the wrong guy, and
Speaker 1: they turned on the five o'clock news and boom, there
Speaker 1: was a story about guy the same name was Sanna
Speaker 1: in the past and.
Speaker 2: That sucks because it's like, like your name is super common.
Speaker 1: No, it was so weird.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a weird one. Okay, I think we're good
