Speaker 4: Yeah, lots of effort this morning. All right.
Speaker 5: Tyler from Kentucky wants to know when you're getting when
Speaker 5: we are not you, when we are getting more scream
Speaker 5: o content whenever.
Speaker 1: They want it.
Speaker 2: That people want it.
Speaker 1: Entucky is a yes, So it sounds like they want it.
Speaker 1: There's one I guess you got to be a little
Speaker 1: more vocal about it and let them know by then
Speaker 1: me and the show, and you want more of it
Speaker 1: because I'm down to bring it like a scream o game,
Speaker 1: like where like we'd scream lyrics and you have to
Speaker 1: guess it. Me just doing more scream of songs? I
Speaker 1: could do that too.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I was gonna say, do you have any interest in
Speaker 5: pursuing like a scream of song kind of like we
Speaker 5: have Abby who just did her original song?
Speaker 4: Yeah, do you have any interest.
Speaker 5: In doing an original scream of song and putting it out?
Speaker 1: It'd be fun. Again, it comes down to I think
Speaker 1: this is my overarching theme, is my schedule and time
Speaker 1: and trying to fit everything in, and I would love
Speaker 1: to do my own original song. At the moment, It's
Speaker 1: much easier to take something that already exists and it
Speaker 1: exactly or amplify would already like with the Hardy song,
Speaker 1: for example, like it already had the elements of a
Speaker 1: harder part at the end right there, and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: it just add a little screaming to it to kind
Speaker 1: of amplify it. That's much easier than having to like
Speaker 1: start from ground one and write the music and write
Speaker 1: the lyrics and then go record it and record it
Speaker 1: and then I'm a perfectionist, so I'll be in there
Speaker 1: all day long, all week long, all month long on
Speaker 1: one damn thing. So it's like I would to do it, yes,
Speaker 1: but this is like I guess my dipping my toes
Speaker 1: in the water off starting it by doing this version
Speaker 1: of it.
Speaker 5: That's fair, and it doesn't probably rank very high on
Speaker 5: your important list at this moment in your life.
Speaker 1: No, because it's really fun and I enjoy it, but
Speaker 1: it's not something, yes that I would. I need to
Speaker 1: focus on so much right now. I will probably do
Speaker 1: another one before the end of the year. I was
Speaker 1: thinking about doing something with Jelly Roll or like Brandley Gilbert,
Speaker 1: something of that already that space, Oh yeah, we're going,
Speaker 1: we're going really weird and finding something like Landy Wilson
Speaker 1: and the screaming with Laney Wilson.
Speaker 4: That could be strange, but I love it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I guess anyone has any suggestions too,
Speaker 1: I guess let Morgan.
Speaker 4: Know, Yeah, let me know.
Speaker 5: Scoop up in the DMS, not that he's probably very
Speaker 5: great about checking.
Speaker 1: Him wow, Not that he's pretty great at checking him.
Speaker 1: He basically said he sucks at checking his DM more.
Speaker 5: I imagine that you're not because your dad.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's where myside thousand percent correct.
Speaker 1: But I don't know if like someone had also told you,
Speaker 1: and the question answers like Stephen never responds to his DMS.
Speaker 5: That's more of an a sumption of being someone who
Speaker 5: utilizes social media.
Speaker 4: It's my job to understand.
Speaker 1: That you know what demographics are. My demographic doesn't check
Speaker 1: DMS very often.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I guess, yeah, yeah, yeah, hit either one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hit me with your best shot.
Speaker 5: Ashley from Tennessee do you regret the vosectomy?
Speaker 1: I do have some moments when I see larger families
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, it'd be so cool to at
Speaker 1: least have the option to have the fourth child. I
Speaker 1: guess that's the one thing is you you take away
Speaker 1: an option, it's always the grasses greener type effect, and
Speaker 1: it never is greener. So that's how I've coped with it.
Speaker 1: I'm like, you always take you on more. You think
Speaker 1: you want something different than everything, but whatever you have, right,
Speaker 1: now in front of you. Is in that aspect. I
Speaker 1: guess it's just fine.
Speaker 5: I think his answer is yes, and he's scared to
Speaker 5: say it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, I mean I guess like
Speaker 1: with any decision you make, there's parts of you that
Speaker 1: look back on and go, crap, Yeah, I wish what
Speaker 1: would have been like if I didn't go through it,
Speaker 1: or I did, or I went the other route or
Speaker 1: the other direction. So there's always going to be that
Speaker 1: loom being thing of like what if I wanted a
Speaker 1: fourth kid, or like whenever one of my kids is
Speaker 1: like oh, you know, they'll make a comment about another
Speaker 1: sibling or a brother or something, and I go, oh,
Speaker 1: that's never gonna happen because because it just can't happen
Speaker 1: anymore right now.
Speaker 5: The dreaded what ifs. Although technically can't you reverse the pcomy?
Speaker 1: You can, but it's not successful like the percentage of
Speaker 1: the success rate, and also with how much pain you'll
Speaker 1: go through reversing it. For me, it's just not worth it,
Speaker 1: got it? They would tell me that it's especially the
Speaker 1: longer you wait, the less likely the factory. As you
Speaker 1: put it, my doctor will restart back up. He goes,
Speaker 1: if you do within the first six months or so,
Speaker 1: there's a pretty good chance you'll the surgery won't hurt
Speaker 1: as much. You can get it back in gear. He's like,
Speaker 1: but you hit a year, two years, three years, he goes,
Speaker 1: it's almost like you can't do it. But it's like
Speaker 1: ten percent, fifteen percent odds.
Speaker 5: What about a possibility of adoption? Is there any of
Speaker 5: that conversation?
Speaker 1: There is, Yeah, because I even thought about that a
Speaker 1: long time ago, when when we were first getting together
Speaker 1: of like, hey, there's so many kids here in America
Speaker 1: that are like just don't have a support they don't
Speaker 1: have the family. Something happens like with Eddie for example.
Speaker 1: You know he had that I don't know if it
Speaker 1: was a friend of his or someone he knew. I
Speaker 1: forget the connection because I wasn't here during that process,
Speaker 1: but I know that he had someone that he knew,
Speaker 1: or there was a connection, or or they got involved
Speaker 1: in a foster Do you know what it was?
Speaker 5: His wife was the one who really wanted them to foster. No,
Speaker 5: I'm not sure where that came from for her, but
Speaker 5: she was the reason that they started fostering.
Speaker 1: Gotcha, Okay, So and it turned into what they have
Speaker 1: now where they adopted the kids. But yeah, it was
Speaker 1: one of those things where you know, the kids had
Speaker 1: a mother that was hooked on something, and we have
Speaker 1: that's a huge problem in America, especially with what's the.
Speaker 4: One that I was on now, ozempic.
Speaker 1: No, no zempic. That's where you lose weight or diabeas now,
Speaker 1: so the thing's super dangerous. If you're on the zebic
Speaker 1: right now, I'm not judging you, but please consider stopping
Speaker 1: it because it is a huge effing problem. I'm worried
Speaker 1: about the long term effects that we don't know about
Speaker 1: because it's so short. That's a product that I guarantee
Speaker 1: you in three to four years, a lawyer will pop
Speaker 1: up on your screen and say, did you take a
Speaker 1: zembic in twenty twenty four? Call now to get your
Speaker 1: law Morgan and Morgan for the people circle back, I know,
Speaker 1: I know, circle back. So we were talking about oh,
Speaker 1: oh oh, what's it called? Not profofol, Well, it's not
Speaker 1: that Mac Miller died from and a lot of Jilly
Speaker 1: Roll's friends died and Struggle Jennings friends died from it.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, are you ef FFing kidding me?
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 5: I'm not super familiar with Struggus, fentanylt.
Speaker 1: It got fentanyl. There's a huge fentanyl epidemic, so there's
Speaker 1: a lot of people that are now being affected by that.
Speaker 1: There's going to be a ripple effect from it. There
Speaker 1: are like Jelly Rolls, Jilly Rowl, and Struggle Jennings I
Speaker 1: think alone have lost thirty forty people from fentanyl. So
Speaker 1: think about all those people and if they had kids,
Speaker 1: and if their family is also addicted. So that makes
Speaker 1: my point is the foster system is probably flooded with
Speaker 1: kids with this most recent epidemic, and then you had
Speaker 1: the pandemic people dying from that or getting sick or
Speaker 1: can't afford children anymore. So to answer your question in
Speaker 1: a very long form answer, not keeping us.
Speaker 5: The twenty minutes from to ozimpic to fentanyl and I'm
Speaker 5: not sure what's happening anymore.
Speaker 1: I know where I'm following the circle. We just came
Speaker 1: right back around to. I bet the foster system is
Speaker 1: probably flooded. To answer question about adopting children, I.
Speaker 4: Had to give you a hard time because we were
Speaker 4: on a we did.
Speaker 1: We did, we did, But you know, I'm really good
Speaker 1: at I can bring it right, bring it around.
Speaker 4: Answer your question.
Speaker 5: Actually he does regret them.
Speaker 1: Yes, I could see myself fostering children a long source short.
Speaker 4: Yes, love it.
Speaker 5: Okay, we're going to break and we'll be right back.
Speaker 5: All right, Brandy, she did not put where she's from.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, but she did put her name.
Speaker 1: That's fine, Brandy, least put your name.
Speaker 4: She did.
Speaker 5: She wants to know your best parenting advice.
Speaker 1: Wow, I think it's what I've learned, is I guess?
Speaker 1: I'll give you two answers. One answer is not to
Speaker 1: be judgmental against other parents unless they're doing something that's
Speaker 1: completely unsafe. Then you're like, oh, then you need to
Speaker 1: be judgmental and probably step in in some way. But
Speaker 1: if like, but parenting styles in the way some things
Speaker 1: are or what they let some kids get away with
Speaker 1: and some kids and how certain kids act. I've noticed
Speaker 1: with having kids in three different personalities that having perspective
Speaker 1: on it, you can you should never judge another parent
Speaker 1: where someone's like, oh I could never do that, or
Speaker 1: I would never do that, or they shouldn't do like
Speaker 1: the whole thing of judging parents like it is what
Speaker 1: you don't know what they're going through, and you don't
Speaker 1: know how that kid is like or what their things take.
Speaker 1: You just don't know. So my point is, never judge
Speaker 1: another parent.
Speaker 4: Love that great advice.
Speaker 1: Disclamor less are being dangerous.
Speaker 4: Okay, yes that was your part one.
Speaker 1: Was part one too. Then my part two would be
Speaker 1: my advice about parenting, like with the kids that side.
Speaker 1: So when I want to give advice to parents, don't
Speaker 1: judge with the parents. It's not cool because we've all
Speaker 1: been there where we're like, we have the best day
Speaker 1: and then someone catches you on day seven and it's
Speaker 1: the worst day and they're like, Wow, what a terrible parent,
Speaker 1: they can't get their kids in line whatever. It's like, no, no,
Speaker 1: they were good for six days, and so are we.
Speaker 1: You just caught the worst moment, like either they're hungry
Speaker 1: or they have to go pee, or they're tired or whatever.
Speaker 1: The situation is. Never judge another parent, super important. It's
Speaker 1: not worth it.
Speaker 5: Yeah. I don't think you should judge other people in
Speaker 5: general in general.
Speaker 1: But parenting I've noticed in that space they are judgmental
Speaker 1: on another level.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's the time we're at in society.
Speaker 5: We're just judgmental across the board.
Speaker 1: Yes, so get people grace. Give people grace, you know,
Speaker 1: I like it. Give people grace. You don't know what
Speaker 1: they're going through, and if anything, help them out. I
Speaker 1: feel like they need some help help them versus hurt them.
Speaker 4: Love it.
Speaker 1: Yes. Part two, Yes, And I did that one first
Speaker 1: to try to stall and give me an idea of
Speaker 1: part two. Part two. I just put myself up for
Speaker 1: a part two that's okay, well no, but not I
Speaker 1: have one now because I challenge myself within a conversation.
Speaker 1: I then came up with a part two. And actually,
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, I didn't have a part two,
Speaker 1: and I said I had a Part two was lying.
Speaker 1: I was stalling even more to figure out all My
Speaker 1: Part two.
Speaker 2: Was you're hurt my brain and now I haven't.
Speaker 4: Are we sure?
Speaker 1: No? So what's gonna happen is I'm just gonna say
Speaker 1: something and that's gonna be my advice.
Speaker 5: Why we go, Honger, It's been the twenty minute threshold.
Speaker 1: I know, I know.
Speaker 4: So if you don't have something, just say IM porkin.
Speaker 2: No, I don't have another thing, but.
Speaker 1: Morgan, I want to say thank you so much for
Speaker 1: buying me more time to think of another idea that
Speaker 1: I still haven't come up. He is also give your
Speaker 1: kids grace because leading into like not knowing what they're doing.
Speaker 1: I've noticed that my kids are usually one of three things.
Speaker 1: They have to go pee, they're hungry, or they're tired.
Speaker 1: And one thing that I've noticed when trying to get
Speaker 1: their attention, yelling never works. It didn't work for me.
Speaker 1: It always put a pit in my stomach. Here my
Speaker 1: parents yell because they argued a lot, so it's a
Speaker 1: different kind of yelling. And when they yelled at me,
Speaker 1: it was like an angry from the depths of their soul,
Speaker 1: I hate you kind of yell and you're like, oh
Speaker 1: my god. So when you yell, you're not going to
Speaker 1: get the attention of your kid. Never. It ain't gonna happen.
Speaker 1: So what I have to do is I have to
Speaker 1: get on my knee and get at their level so
Speaker 1: they're not infuriated of me. Because when you stand there,
Speaker 1: you're six foot tall. They're looking at but you they're like,
Speaker 1: you know, three feet tall, and they just feel no
Speaker 1: matter what if your voice changes to a stern tone,
Speaker 1: that's how.
Speaker 4: I feel all the time, but go on, oh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I get you're short. Yeah, maybe actually get that
Speaker 1: on my knee. I'm not gonna propose you, but I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna be getting to eye to eye to you
Speaker 1: so we can have a conversation. You don't feel inferior.
Speaker 4: Yeah that's weird, but yeah I can.
Speaker 2: I can relate to the kiddos.
Speaker 1: So I get on a knee or get at their level,
Speaker 1: like crouch on whatever, and then i have the eye
Speaker 1: to eye conversation and I'm like, yo, look what's wrong
Speaker 1: with you? Are you okay? I'm like, do you have
Speaker 1: to go potty? No? Are you hungry?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 1: Are you tired? And then I get my hug and
Speaker 1: you're like, yeah, I'm tired. And I get my hug,
Speaker 1: and I'll pick them up and I'll hold them and
Speaker 1: I'll kind of like just like rock with them a
Speaker 1: little bit and like try to console them and just
Speaker 1: I've noticed that that is as much as my parenting
Speaker 1: and the parenting before that would be like you're a woos,
Speaker 1: but I've noticed that actually works better with humans is
Speaker 1: the connectivity and the touch and the communication. It's huge.
Speaker 1: You'll see such a and then you'll see a difference
Speaker 1: in your kids life because then they become more secure
Speaker 1: in their relationship with you and other relationships because because
Speaker 1: you were more hands on with them and you broke
Speaker 1: down the barrier and didn't do what your parents and
Speaker 1: previous generations did, and you kind of just treated them
Speaker 1: like another human because you wouldn't want to be streamed
Speaker 1: and yelled at or or talk to or whatever. It's
Speaker 1: better to just grab that attention that way. So I
Speaker 1: get on the knee and talk to them, and if
Speaker 1: I have to compee, I'm like, oh, it's a good
Speaker 1: potti right now, Like it's all good. Just next time,
Speaker 1: trying to use your words and let me know what's wrong.
Speaker 1: They're still not going to every time, but when you
Speaker 1: get on that level, then they're more willing to open
Speaker 1: up and speak to you and give you what you want.
Speaker 1: And then you do whatever one of those three things
Speaker 1: in or the wildcard four. They're like, well, I want
Speaker 1: gummy beers. You're all right, whatever, gummy bears. Who cares
Speaker 1: like it doesn't really matter. Give a pack of gummy bears.
Speaker 1: So you have that sanity for the next two to
Speaker 1: three hours. And once you do whatever one of those
Speaker 1: three or four things is then you're completely fine, then
Speaker 1: life is easier, and then you go on with the
Speaker 1: rest of your day and then you tackle the next problem.
Speaker 1: So that'd be my advice. I like it, so I
Speaker 1: came up with it. I knew I just had.
Speaker 5: To find something, give grace and be on your knees.
Speaker 5: Got it exactly? From California. Wow, that sounds at all furnace.
Speaker 4: If I summed it up, that.
Speaker 1: Would be that'd be it. Yeah, totally get down on one knee.
Speaker 4: And intentional will be taken another way that you were going.
Speaker 1: No, you were going that way. I wasn't you left?
Speaker 1: I left your laugh.
Speaker 4: I giggled as it came out of my mouth. As
Speaker 4: I was summarized, I realized, yeah, m hmm. Anyways, from California.
Speaker 5: I would like to know how you proposed to your wife.
Speaker 1: How Emily from California? Ship were in California. It's a
Speaker 1: pretty big state. Oh sorry, Emi, what city girl? All right?
Speaker 5: But anyways, I didn't know they needed to have city.
Speaker 1: Now, we'd be nice that they would tell me geographically
Speaker 1: where they're at. The State's fine, but I want to
Speaker 1: know where from the state, because then we may have
Speaker 1: a connection.
Speaker 4: Here told you guys. He was sassy, like.
Speaker 1: She's like, oh, San Francisco, Oh my god, I can
Speaker 1: tell you about this and you'll know, Emily because you
Speaker 1: live in San Francisco, or like, oh, I'm in Baker's Field.
Speaker 1: Oh the story I'm going to tell you it's actually anyways,
Speaker 1: so it happened in San Francisco. The first date that
Speaker 1: my wife and I had was at this place called
Speaker 1: Tunnel Top Bar. It was like two blocks from my apartment.
Speaker 1: It's on the corner of Stockton, right at the end
Speaker 1: into the Stockton Tunnel and I think it's I forget
Speaker 1: post maybe maybe Anyways, Tunnel Top Bar. That was where
Speaker 1: our first day was, where we first met, where we
Speaker 1: had like a six hour conversation and like three or
Speaker 1: four drinks and just kind of laid our hearts out
Speaker 1: and explained everything. He fell in love, fell in love
Speaker 1: almost immediately. I did, at least, but her maybe it
Speaker 1: took a couple of dates. But so when I went
Speaker 1: to propose to her, what I did was, of course,
Speaker 1: I went to her family, went to her mom and
Speaker 1: her sister and her brother. That's like her immediate family,
Speaker 1: doesn't her father's not here. If you want to know
Speaker 1: about that. Listen to other episodes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we've talked about it before.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So so I went to them and I was like, hey,
Speaker 1: here's my plan. I want to propose to your daughter
Speaker 1: slash sister, and this is my whole thing. And I
Speaker 1: kind of like, poor, I won't give you the whole things.
Speaker 1: We're trying to keep this twenty minutes. But I talked
Speaker 1: to them and gave my best intentions, my everything, and
Speaker 1: my compare like everything that I wanted to tell them,
Speaker 1: I gave it to him. And they were so receptive
Speaker 1: and they were so happy, and they were and they
Speaker 1: wanted to do whatever they could to help me out
Speaker 1: in this process. And I was like, all right, so
Speaker 1: here's my plan. So I want to do this at
Speaker 1: the place we met, Tunnel Top Bar, but I want
Speaker 1: you guys to be there as well, but I don't
Speaker 1: want you to be there until we do the moment.
Speaker 1: I want to be a surprise. So she just thinks
Speaker 1: we're going to the city and grabbing drinks and that's it.
Speaker 1: She has no idea. We're just because we do that often,
Speaker 1: we would go to the city and do that. So
Speaker 1: we're like, we're going to a ton of Top Bar,
Speaker 1: and maybe she called. I never asked her if she
Speaker 1: if it, if it clewed her in because we're going
Speaker 1: to that spot because we hadn't been there since our
Speaker 1: first date. So maybe if she's pretty smart, she probably like, oh,
Speaker 1: he's never proposing to me. It's gonna happ right now,
Speaker 1: it's totally happened.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, she knew.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I get her because she's super smart and very intuitive.
Speaker 1: She must have been. She may have been feeling it.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I never asked that's a good question
Speaker 1: to ask her. I just came up with myself.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I will get you follow up.
Speaker 1: Yes, so yes, so yeah with top Bar. And then
Speaker 1: we come in. And I also I emailed the guy
Speaker 1: in advance and I say, hey, I'm coming in, and
Speaker 1: I told I sent him for my work email, which
Speaker 1: was I worked for the JV show at the time,
Speaker 1: while then four nine like the biggest morning show, the
Speaker 1: biggest station in the Bay, and so I had a
Speaker 1: little bit of cloud and I was like, hey, man,
Speaker 1: I met my wife here, you know, one of my wife.
Speaker 1: I met my girl here like a year ago. It
Speaker 1: was a year and a half, a year maybe two
Speaker 1: years ago. I said Hey, I want to propose to
Speaker 1: her here at the bar. You know, is there a
Speaker 1: way I can come in there, like right before you
Speaker 1: guys open or or something like that, Like I don't
Speaker 1: want to be crowded. He's like, yeah, man, no problem,
Speaker 1: of course, and so we set it up. I call
Speaker 1: him and I want him to play a song. Hunter
Speaker 1: Hayes is the song because that happened to be playing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it happened to be playing when we first walked into
Speaker 1: the bar.
Speaker 4: I wanted I think, yeah.
Speaker 1: Make you feel wanted. Yeah, So that song was playing
Speaker 1: right when we walked into the bar, either when we
Speaker 1: walked into the bar, or we were leaving, or maybe
Speaker 1: there's a moment where I was playing and I was like,
Speaker 1: I think it was. I was like, oh, I love
Speaker 1: this girl and that song was on. We talked about
Speaker 1: that song a little bit and then so so I
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, I want you to play the song
Speaker 1: when we walk in and then we're just gonna grab
Speaker 1: a drink. We're gonna go upstairs because again, no problem.
Speaker 1: So we get there. It's not even so maybe she
Speaker 1: knew because like it was like twelve o'clock, bar open
Speaker 1: is like four.
Speaker 5: She might have gotten the realization as you guys arrived
Speaker 5: and that's happening.
Speaker 1: And I had them get there before us, and they
Speaker 1: got there and they hid like somewhere like in the
Speaker 1: back area. So the guy who owns the bar was
Speaker 1: very instrumental in a major part in this and was
Speaker 1: so helpful. And so we did all that. We get
Speaker 1: in the bar. Song comes on. She's like what I
Speaker 1: was like, and we grab drinks the similar drinks. I
Speaker 1: had no old fashion. She had her vodka one and tonic
Speaker 1: with lime, kind of one voka tonic and line.
Speaker 5: I like the listening details right, scuba steep yees.
Speaker 1: So I had our drinks. We go upstairs, the songs playing,
Speaker 1: and we're just kind of reminiscing for a moment, and
Speaker 1: I was just kind of like, get down on one
Speaker 1: knee and I just professed my love for her and
Speaker 1: my intentions, and she's like, and she's just on cloud
Speaker 1: nine ride at that moment. Her mom comes up and
Speaker 1: her brother and her sister, and then she's even more like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, and they get pictures and stuff, and
Speaker 1: then we propose, and I propose, and then then we're off.
Speaker 1: We're off to the races, and yeah, you can see
Speaker 1: that picture that day. It's on my Instagram. You just
Speaker 1: gotta go down a little bit Scooba Steeve Radio.
Speaker 5: But the day, like, is there a picture of you
Speaker 5: proposing or is it after the proposal?
Speaker 1: I believe it picture of the proposal, but for sure
Speaker 1: after the proposal it is a picture of her, like's
Speaker 1: the ring and a picture in front of tunnel top bar.
Speaker 5: Oh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a really cool moment. It was really
Speaker 1: special and it was just there was nothing that was
Speaker 1: difficult about it. It was super smooth and easy and it
Speaker 1: was the only nervous part was was getting the hand
Speaker 1: in marry, like asking for hand in marriage, Like I
Speaker 1: know they would say yes, but it's just really nerve
Speaker 1: wracking going to someone and saying, hey, I want to
Speaker 1: marry your daughter, or hey I want to marry your sister.
Speaker 1: I know she means everything to you, and but now
Speaker 1: I'm taking over kind of that's just a lot because
Speaker 1: I have daughters now and I'd have a really hard
Speaker 1: time allowing that myself.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, it's it's just an emotional like transition of
Speaker 5: time and somebody really where that emotion is coming from,
Speaker 5: letting go and a new beginning.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, that was super.
Speaker 1: Sank you Emily from California. We don't know where in California,
Speaker 1: but you just had.
Speaker 4: Lunchbox.
Speaker 2: I just kidding, I'm nailing the coffin.
Speaker 4: That is like so shoved in.
Speaker 1: You can't pull it back, you can't know it's there.
Speaker 4: Okay, we'll be right back.
Speaker 5: Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your story.
Speaker 1: No problem, all.
Speaker 5: Right, we got Lauren from Virginia. Don't yell at our
Speaker 5: No city wants to know your highlight of your time
Speaker 5: on the Bobby Bone Show so far.
Speaker 1: I was trying to try to do lightning around with
Speaker 1: these and you can still do it. I'll leave you, Okay.
Speaker 1: My greatest time with the show would definitely have to
Speaker 1: be when Eddie and I did the walk from West
Speaker 1: Virginia to Tennessee. That was such a unique experience because
Speaker 1: I've done a lot of things in the studio with
Speaker 1: guests and bits in the show with different shows that
Speaker 1: I've worked for and worked with, But that was so
Speaker 1: cool because we were out, we were not in the studio.
Speaker 1: It was it was an unknown thing. It was planned,
Speaker 1: but also we're kind of making it up as we go. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like it was it winging it, But we did it.
Speaker 1: We made it happen. There was a good cause behind
Speaker 1: it. It was a charity element. It was cool to see
Speaker 1: Eddie pushing himself no matter it was pretty difficult, like
Speaker 1: seeing him walk and then he's bleeding and all kinds
Speaker 1: of crazy stuff. And then we're running into listeners and
Speaker 1: and program directors. Family members were out there and came
Speaker 1: and visited us. Tommy Chuck's parents from Virginia. They came
Speaker 1: out like it was just a really cool neat experience.
Speaker 1: And then Rod and Gator met up with us who
Speaker 1: work here with the company that are higher ups. They
Speaker 1: met us midway through and then and then it was
Speaker 1: just it was such a cool experience. And there's a
Speaker 1: million and one stories from it, but just the whole
Speaker 1: thing was just such. It was unique and nothing like it.
Speaker 1: I think nothing will ever top that, at least in
Speaker 1: my career as far as doing something with a show
Speaker 1: like that was so so cool.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and the charity tie and the profound impact of
Speaker 5: that definitely helps the impact I bet it had on YouTube.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, definitely. Yeah. And then you talked about earlier
Speaker 1: the foster kids and all that. It's just like, this
Speaker 1: money is going towards something huge. It's going to help
Speaker 1: a lot of kids and a lot of families, and
Speaker 1: a lot of kids get into families. It's like, this
Speaker 1: is and we raised close to I think it was
Speaker 1: a quarter million dollars. It was like two fifty six
Speaker 1: or three hundred thousand. I was like, and our goal
Speaker 1: was I think just ten thousand. That was unbelievable. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was really really cool. And then also to see America,
Speaker 1: speaking of Virginia, we saw Westterroat. I mean, he saw
Speaker 1: places I'd never seen before, driving through roads that I
Speaker 1: would never ever touch, and it was it was really cool.
Speaker 2: I love that, really cool.
Speaker 5: Patty is concerned with you doing the iHeartRadio nineties show. Well,
Speaker 5: she wants to know what'll make me leave the Bobby
Speaker 5: Bone Show.
Speaker 1: Patty is concerned. Well, Patty, you have no concerns because
Speaker 1: I don't even know. I don't know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: You have no concerns.
Speaker 1: How there you be concerned with my choices? I know,
Speaker 1: I know, I know I have no idea what the
Speaker 1: future holds true. All I know is that it's something
Speaker 1: that I wanted to do and I asked to have
Speaker 1: my own thing, and then I and it worked out.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what the long term thing is, at
Speaker 1: least in the company's eyes, but it's something fun for
Speaker 1: me to do. I used to do it in Bakersfield
Speaker 1: when I was doing Ryan Seacrush show as his executive producer.
Speaker 1: I'd get there early in the morning and i'd record
Speaker 1: that midday show for a Bakersfield station, which is funny
Speaker 1: because I used to go up against not really hope against,
Speaker 1: but you know, Bret Michaels from who's one of our
Speaker 1: affiliates in Bakersfield.
Speaker 5: Brent.
Speaker 1: Oh, I love Bret. It's amazing. So I knew him
Speaker 1: before even all this because he was in that market
Speaker 1: and he was a staple and so I knew who
Speaker 1: he was because I did my research on it and
Speaker 1: I went to Bakersfield and was a part of it
Speaker 1: and immersed myself in it, and I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm going up against Brent Michaels, and and then this
Speaker 1: whole thing came up and I was like, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: Brent Michaels, like our past kept crossing. So that's a
Speaker 1: really cool and special relationship. And I'm going off on
Speaker 1: a tangent and dang it, we're not doing lightning round.
Speaker 1: But my point was I did Middays for about three
Speaker 1: or four years and I and I was really really
Speaker 1: I had a really good time with it and I
Speaker 1: did really well, Like the social numbers were the highest
Speaker 1: they'd ever been. I really I had increased that engagement
Speaker 1: on Facebook and Instagram and Twitter. And then the show
Speaker 1: it was just a midday show, but I was doing
Speaker 1: it kind of the morning show a light that it
Speaker 1: did so well that it had to it created some
Speaker 1: changes in that station, and I won't get in all
Speaker 1: the weeds of it, but it was really cool and
Speaker 1: it was fun. And then when I came here, I
Speaker 1: couldn't do it anymore because this was a new job.
Speaker 1: It was this was like this is ultra full time
Speaker 1: and I needed to make sure that I was successful
Speaker 1: at this, and so I was, I don't have any
Speaker 1: free time for anything. I had to fully fully dedicate
Speaker 1: myself to this. And then the COVID pandemic happened, which
Speaker 1: meant I even had to you know more so I
Speaker 1: just had to walk away from it. But now that
Speaker 1: it's back, it's great and I'm enjoying it. That's that's
Speaker 1: where it is right now. That's that's all. I'm not
Speaker 1: looking for anything at the moment. If she's worried about that.
Speaker 5: I'm continuing exploring different opportunities and thriving because stagnant is
Speaker 5: no fun exactly.
Speaker 1: And why not there's an opportunity and why not jump
Speaker 1: on it exactly? Box you're gonna burnt out? La da da.
Speaker 1: It's not about the money, it's not about anything. It's
Speaker 1: about me having my own thing that is for me.
Speaker 1: Like you have this, this is your thing. It's like
Speaker 1: your creative out. It's your piece of you, and it's
Speaker 1: nice to have that outside of something else. Like like
Speaker 1: Bobby's even said to himself, he's like, I'd be hypocrite
Speaker 1: if I said you shouldn't pursue something like this, because
Speaker 1: he's like, I do ten million other things.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it gives me your individuality exactly.
Speaker 1: So so yes, thank you for being concerned, but gop and.
Speaker 5: Lastly, yeah, this you can do lining around. I believe
Speaker 5: in you. Your best career advice from Kate in Indiana.
Speaker 1: Dang girl, Kate in Indiana not a city, but I
Speaker 1: will say you're from Indianapolis, Indiana or Fort Wayne, No,
Speaker 1: Fort Wayne because our boy Randy. Yeah, Fort Wayne and
Speaker 1: Randy was up dude anyway, So as if he's even.
Speaker 2: Listening, I don't think it all right.
Speaker 1: My best career advice, I would say is jump, and
Speaker 1: I learned that from Steve Harvey. I was watching one
Speaker 1: of these things that were posted on TikTok.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, but you're on TikTok.
Speaker 1: I know, but I don't even really do anything with it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that last one day on YouTube.
Speaker 1: Like maybe he was like fifteen years ago and he
Speaker 1: was doing one of those things. He was hosting a
Speaker 1: show and in between takes a lot of times sometimes
Speaker 1: the whost will come over and say, hey, studio audience,
Speaker 1: so thanks for being here, and they'll do they may
Speaker 1: just like just show appreciation. If they're a comedian, they
Speaker 1: may tell a joke like Steve Harvey, but he always
Speaker 1: does motivational things in between takes when he has a moment,
Speaker 1: and one of the ones was he's like, you gotta jump.
Speaker 1: He's like, if you don't jump, he goes, you'll never know.
Speaker 1: He's like, he goes, sure, he goes, if you jump.
Speaker 1: It was a little bit longer. I'm trying to paraphrase it.
Speaker 1: He's like, sure, if you jump, you're gonna fall, you're
Speaker 1: gonna get scrapes, you're gonna get hit some rocks, So
Speaker 1: you know it's not going to feel good. He's like,
Speaker 1: but if you don't, you'll never know what it feels
Speaker 1: like to do something that you want to do and
Speaker 1: be happy because you never took that risk and that chance,
Speaker 1: and you always wonder it's the what IF's, basically, and
Speaker 1: basically also letting you know that it's not going to
Speaker 1: be easy. Yeah, but the things you want in life
Speaker 1: usually aren't easy, but the payoff is always better because
Speaker 1: you grinded through it and you took the chance, and
Speaker 1: because you went through the process and the pain and everything,
Speaker 1: then it becomes you are more grateful for it, I
Speaker 1: guess because you're like, man, that was so difficult, But
Speaker 1: now that I'm here and I've accomplished it, this feels
Speaker 1: so freaking good because I went for something I wanted it,
Speaker 1: it was not easy, I learned a lot, and now
Speaker 1: here I am on the other side and this is fantastic.
Speaker 1: That'd be my biggest thing is And it's not for
Speaker 1: everyone though. Not everyone wants to do that, and that's fine.
Speaker 1: You may not be able to because your situation. You know,
Speaker 1: some people just like to be worker bees and they
Speaker 1: like to do just the nine to five and they're
Speaker 1: fine with that, or or they have a career path
Speaker 1: they want and they don't want to think about anything else.
Speaker 1: That's fine. Not everyone wants to. But if you're somebody
Speaker 1: who's even thinking about it, I highly recommend it sounds
Speaker 1: like maybe she is. I highly recommend that you take
Speaker 1: the leave of faith and just jump and love do it.
Speaker 5: I agree, And I'll add to that that you should
Speaker 5: make all the connections. You never know who you're going
Speaker 5: to run into and who you're going to talk to.
Speaker 5: It doesn't matter if it's a job that you don't
Speaker 5: think you want. Yes, you should talk to any and
Speaker 5: everybody and just keep making connections. The human connection is
Speaker 5: how we interact with the world, but it's also how
Speaker 5: you interact in your professional world too.
Speaker 1: Exactly. Yeah, that's great. That's another great piece of advice.
Speaker 1: It never never, yet, never turned someone down from a conversation,
Speaker 1: if someone you see someone you're at an event or whatever.
Speaker 1: If anything, it's also just another great person to have
Speaker 1: on your team.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you can always have people rooting for you. That
Speaker 5: never hurts anything. They'll know, all right, Scoob, what we
Speaker 5: did it? Not really really seven and a half minutes over.
