Speaker 1: Liza, Welcome to Monday Show.
Speaker 2: More studio more.
Speaker 1: Okay, So here is the goal over the next few
Speaker 1: minutes is by the way, we'll have the Blake Shelton
Speaker 1: interview coming up in just a little bit. It's great,
Speaker 1: Amy did it. I was gone. Amy did it. Amy's
Speaker 1: the leader when I'm not here, Amy's the leader. And
Speaker 1: you led in this situation. I liked it by some
Speaker 1: stuff last week. Maybe maybe when the best I I
Speaker 1: get critique for playing too many video games. I found
Speaker 1: a new story that's like, you should play all the
Speaker 1: video games you want. Find a news story the contradicts
Speaker 1: any hate you get, okay, because there's I'm telling you
Speaker 1: there's a story for anything, any hate. Yeah, find us
Speaker 1: find a new story the contradicts any hate you get.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: So I want to start the show here. Thank you
Speaker 1: guys for being here. Let's play this song. We will
Speaker 1: come right back. Find that story that we can. We
Speaker 1: can then go Eddie shouldn't be eat in so many
Speaker 1: tortillas and you're like, oh tortillas, don't use that one.
Speaker 1: Let me start looking all right back right, I have
Speaker 1: a story I'd like to read. Thank you all for
Speaker 1: being here. This story justifies a lot of what I've
Speaker 1: said on the show for many years. From a research
Speaker 1: journal called Cyrix a reason that he found the people
Speaker 1: who played video games four, five, six or more hours
Speaker 1: a week have brain function fourteen years younger. So I'd
Speaker 1: like to say for all those times you guys have
Speaker 1: made fun of me playing video games, for those times,
Speaker 1: and my wife's.
Speaker 2: Been like, have you been to play in your PlayStation
Speaker 2: five ball over the last couple of hours? It's helping
Speaker 2: my brain. Have you sent that to your wife yet?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: Yeah, i' about to take picture of you, send it
Speaker 2: over there.
Speaker 1: Even playing video games just sometimes is linked to a
Speaker 1: brain that's five years younger because of what the video
Speaker 1: game is doing for the brain. It's basically working out.
Speaker 1: Video games are important for people. They keep you rain
Speaker 1: active but constantly functioning at a high level. They also
Speaker 1: improve your problem solving abilities. Boom, that story justifies everything
Speaker 1: you've said, and all you guys can kick her eyes.
Speaker 2: Amy have one of those.
Speaker 4: Well, sometimes y'all make fun of me for forest bathing
Speaker 4: or y'all don't really it's just going for a walk
Speaker 4: with the trees with them yes, out of Stanford, which
Speaker 4: I mean credible source. It is scientifically measurable. So this
Speaker 4: is based on science. It's not just that I am
Speaker 4: going into the forest and hanging out with the trees
Speaker 4: to just feel better, and it's like all in my mind. No,
Speaker 4: it lowers your cortisol. They've measured it. So if you're
Speaker 4: feeling anxious, or you need to calm down, or you
Speaker 4: just need to feel like just better, go forest bathe.
Speaker 2: And forest bathing is actually in a water.
Speaker 5: You're not naked. You can be close.
Speaker 1: I won't even say naked. I was just saying water
Speaker 1: because it's baby. It's a season of amy, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Everything is like perty, no, what I lunchbox?
Speaker 2: What do you have to prove? It's all, oh, you
Speaker 2: guys get mad at me. Oh you don't shower. I
Speaker 2: can't believe you go three days without showering.
Speaker 6: But Harvard Health they say, yeah, exactly, go ahead. They
Speaker 6: shay showering every day is bad for you.
Speaker 2: Last could say, hey you sorry, go yeah.
Speaker 6: They say showering every day is bad for your health
Speaker 6: and bad for your skin. Antibacterial soaps can actually kill
Speaker 6: off normal bacteria that upset and that upsets the micro
Speaker 6: organisms on your skin. And encourages bad bacteria to get
Speaker 6: on your skin. Your immune system needs a certain amount
Speaker 6: of stimulation by normal micro organisms dirt and gunk and sweat,
Speaker 6: and by using that soap, you're messing with it. Bad
Speaker 6: news for your body if you shower every day, And
Speaker 6: Harvard says it wastes a ton of water.
Speaker 1: From Harvard and am saying, I like all this stuff
Speaker 1: we can made find out for we're actually.
Speaker 7: Right, Eddie, Well, mine just says from science. Science says
Speaker 7: science is not a source.
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know.
Speaker 7: You guys make fun of me for watching old black
Speaker 7: and white movies, but science says that old black and
Speaker 7: white movies can be considered good for your mental health
Speaker 7: because of their slow pace storytelling and they're understimulating and
Speaker 7: overwhelming because they're just old black and white movies.
Speaker 2: So these new movies I'm boring as crap?
Speaker 1: Correct?
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, the science says it. That's science. Anybody else
Speaker 2: have something I want to prove everybody wrong about?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I have one.
Speaker 8: So according to the Male Clinic, getting random acts of
Speaker 8: kindness done you can increase your sense of connectivity and
Speaker 8: just decrease loneliness.
Speaker 6: And all of you guys make fun of me for
Speaker 6: getting all my ducks all the time and having all
Speaker 6: my ducks on.
Speaker 4: My jeep, and those things have really brought me a
Speaker 4: lot of joy and decreased my loneliness.
Speaker 1: I think we know I should say I not we.
Speaker 1: I think mostly that's just dude's hitting on you. Yes,
Speaker 1: I have ever seen me near as many ducks like
Speaker 1: she drives. It's like she's driving in a ball pit.
Speaker 1: I'm chuck e cheese, you're having a fight, like because
Speaker 1: so many dudes are putting duck inside of her geees.
Speaker 6: She has extra ones in a plastic bag in her
Speaker 6: car because she has.
Speaker 2: So many, I'm going to give them to people.
Speaker 6: There's absolutely one hundred percent dudes hitting on you.
Speaker 2: And almost but I'm almost dangerous.
Speaker 1: Like I saw her once driving up and I was like,
Speaker 1: what is in the wind and you see a little
Speaker 1: head of hint all the ducks.
Speaker 5: Guys, But this is what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: They people putting them on my jeep not only made
Speaker 6: me feel less lonely, it combat in my low mood and.
Speaker 5: Improved my relationships with people.
Speaker 2: And this all according to the mail Clinic. So we
Speaker 2: all found stories to prove everybody wrong.
Speaker 4: I tried to find something about cardinals for sure being
Speaker 4: lost letlong.
Speaker 5: So that there's no research on that. Unfortunately it's unmeasurable.
Speaker 6: Anonymous Anonymous sin bar, there's a question to be.
Speaker 2: Hello, Bobby Bones. About a month ago I met a girl.
Speaker 1: We hit it off to the point where we exchange
Speaker 1: numbers when on a date started texting.
Speaker 2: I'm starting to get a red flag feeling.
Speaker 1: We've made plans to get together five times, and each
Speaker 1: time something comes up, or she's busy at work or
Speaker 1: her mom needs help. I would like to give her
Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt, but something feels off here.
Speaker 1: What can I do to find out if she's really
Speaker 1: that busy or if I'm getting the blowoff sign?
Speaker 2: Blown off? Bob?
Speaker 1: Okay, Bob, you're the problem. Yeah, it's five times you're
Speaker 1: the problem. So one time absolutely cool, Two times dang
Speaker 1: that sucks. I start to go do they really just
Speaker 1: want to hang out with me? That's that three times
Speaker 1: in a row. I am no longer going to invest
Speaker 1: any time or energy trying to get together with this person.
Speaker 1: That is now on them. If they want to get
Speaker 1: together with me anytime after three, that's on you. Bob
Speaker 1: and I can tell you this because I'm not with
Speaker 1: you right now and you won't punch me in the face.
Speaker 1: But Bob, that's on you five times. Also, your way
Speaker 1: too available. You're way too available, Bob. Why do you
Speaker 1: want to go out of here? You're so available. I'm
Speaker 1: free anytime, and once we go w Onut, somebody's free anytime.
Speaker 2: Bob. That's not a red flag. That is a roadblock. Stop.
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, she either doesn't like him, or she's not
Speaker 4: or she's not real, so stop talking to me.
Speaker 1: They've met okay, and they change numbers and they even
Speaker 1: went on a date.
Speaker 4: Sorry, my brain immediately went to some crazy documentary. I
Speaker 4: just watched this girl to talk to a guy online
Speaker 4: for eight years and he scanned her completely.
Speaker 5: They never met up.
Speaker 1: Well, that could be true. I believe that one. No,
Speaker 1: but this one again, he's mat her. It's five times.
Speaker 1: What you do after two is you put it on
Speaker 1: them to make the next plan. Two completely acceptable that
Speaker 1: it happens twice. That sucks. It's rare, but it sucks,
Speaker 1: and it does happen. But after two it's on them
Speaker 1: to make the next plan. Bob, you're the problem. It's you,
Speaker 1: not that you're a bad person, but that you're just
Speaker 1: letting yourself suffer like this because she's You're probably like
Speaker 1: her third choice.
Speaker 2: You're like the third round draft pick.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, are you saying it's you.
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Bob, it's you, Bob the problem. It's you.
Speaker 1: You may be surprised to learn you can bring Thanksgiving
Speaker 1: dinner with you if you fly. It's possible to transport
Speaker 1: an entire turkey, all the fixings, as long as it's
Speaker 1: packed safely inside your checked bags.
Speaker 2: Stop right, I'd be afraid that things would like get out.
Speaker 1: But items that are liquid but have frozen completely solid
Speaker 1: if you're gravy in it, Yeah, it's considered a solid.
Speaker 1: You can even put that in your carry on well,
Speaker 1: as long.
Speaker 5: As it doesn't exceed the ounces.
Speaker 2: It's solid. It's not liquid and alcohol doesn't freeze. So yeah,
Speaker 2: but you can get that.
Speaker 1: On the other side, you just buy that, sure, but no, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean if you freeze it, it's a solid.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So anytime I like take a weapon through, I
Speaker 1: freeze it and they never even question it.
Speaker 2: It's really cool.
Speaker 1: But bake you goes like pies, cakes, Thanksgiving sides like
Speaker 1: mac and cheese, green. They can be frozen properly and
Speaker 1: carry on, or you can put it in your checked Okay.
Speaker 5: That's the part where I'd guess.
Speaker 4: I just get nervous that they suddenly tell me it
Speaker 4: wasn't properly frozen and they throw it out, and I'd
Speaker 4: be like.
Speaker 1: Goot TSA or is that TikTok it's from dot com?
Speaker 2: Okay, so I would assume it's from like TSA.
Speaker 1: But what I would be worried about is that the
Speaker 1: TSA when they go through your stuff, they think that
Speaker 1: like scrumptures and take it for themselves, right, So just.
Speaker 5: Go ahead and check it. That's what I used to
Speaker 5: do when I wanted to take my own stuff when.
Speaker 2: They check it.
Speaker 1: Because sometimes open your back and there's a piece of
Speaker 1: papers like we went through your stuff. Yeah yeah, And
Speaker 1: I'm like, where's my dressing? You know they're reading in
Speaker 1: the break room back there somewhere.
Speaker 2: True. Anyway, there's dead pile of stories.
Speaker 5: I saw a hag on TikTok.
Speaker 4: If you're hosting Thanksgiving, use chat GPT to enter in
Speaker 4: everything that you have to cook, and it will print
Speaker 4: out or spit out a plan for when you need
Speaker 4: to put everything in and what order you should do
Speaker 4: it all in? What based on like you know, temperatures
Speaker 4: and times, and it can get really really complicated and overwhelming.
Speaker 5: But use AI?
Speaker 2: Do you guys? Use chat GPT?
Speaker 1: When I Google it pops up on the top right,
Speaker 1: same thing.
Speaker 2: We have to pay for it, Chat GP for it.
Speaker 5: Oh, I guess I used the free version.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe there maybe there's a free version like anything
Speaker 1: I'm saying now Chat GPT you told me to say,
Speaker 1: so I pay for.
Speaker 2: The other versions.
Speaker 4: So oh that's why I can only ask you one question. Yeah,
Speaker 4: if you, I guess, because the free it'll give you
Speaker 4: one for free and then and then it's like you've
Speaker 4: hit your limit for the day.
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's.
Speaker 5: The formula for the perfect night at home has been studied,
Speaker 5: so I'll tell you exactly what that is. But Bobby,
Speaker 5: I'm curious what a perfect night looks like for you.
Speaker 1: First, If I can be in bed by eight, I
Speaker 1: felt Morgan Backward. I would be in bed by eight,
Speaker 1: falling asleep by eight thirty because get to wake up
Speaker 1: so early. I would say dinner at six five forty
Speaker 1: five would be good. It doesn't even matter what it is.
Speaker 1: I don't care really what we eat because I eat
Speaker 1: boring stuff for the most part, watch a show with
Speaker 1: my wife, get a couple games of NCAA football in
Speaker 1: I mean, I would love to for there to be
Speaker 1: like an Arkansas football game that we win, but we
Speaker 1: don't win games anymore.
Speaker 5: Was getting very specific.
Speaker 1: Well, you ask me perfect night, Okay, and maybe it's
Speaker 1: like a doubleheader because sometimes if it's a weekend, Arkansas'll
Speaker 1: play like three pm, they'll play a basketball game that evening.
Speaker 1: Oh that's cool, that's cool. I'm gonna be super selfish
Speaker 1: like that. Why what do they have?
Speaker 4: Well, the perfect night is getting home from work by
Speaker 4: five point thirty pm and immediately taking an approximately nineteen
Speaker 4: minutes shower, and then you follow that up with snacks
Speaker 4: and relaxing on the couch by no later than six
Speaker 4: forty two.
Speaker 2: Pm, I asked chat GPT.
Speaker 1: The perfect night for an American can very widely depending
Speaker 1: on the personal ches, some regional culture. A cozy home,
Speaker 1: warmer summer evenings of Christophall Knights, barbecue, maybe a favorite
Speaker 1: craft beer, watching a big game, shaming a blockbustern.
Speaker 5: Movie by six forty two pm.
Speaker 1: Yeah, bonding over stories with your family relaxation out by
Speaker 1: a fire or a chill evening.
Speaker 5: That's mine, all right.
Speaker 2: What else?
Speaker 4: If you've ever wondered why cope tastes better at McDonald's,
Speaker 4: there's a reason, and it's a whole process. A lot
Speaker 4: of fast food restaurants they have their coke syrup delivered
Speaker 4: to them in plastic bags, but McDonald's gets it delivered
Speaker 4: in stainless steel tanks, and the tanks keep the syrup fresh,
Speaker 4: and that's why it tastes different.
Speaker 5: But I mean there is.
Speaker 4: I mean, I love diet coke, and yes, there is
Speaker 4: something about a McDonald's coke.
Speaker 5: That just hits.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 2: Their fries too, just hit, as they would say.
Speaker 5: So, just hit plastic bags. They don't help keep that
Speaker 5: sorre of flavor quite like the metal tank. All right,
Speaker 5: I'm Amy. That's my pile.
Speaker 2: That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the
Speaker 2: good news.
Speaker 3: How much box.
Speaker 6: Elaine Rat had just started her shift at the community
Speaker 6: store right by the river when a little boy runs
Speaker 6: and goes help help. We tried to walk on the
Speaker 6: river on the ice and my friend fell in. Elayne
Speaker 6: runs down to the river says, icy water. I'm not
Speaker 6: scared of you. Boom jumps in the water, grabs the boy,
Speaker 6: gets him up on the shore, and then she climbs out.
Speaker 6: The boy was taking to the hospital. He's okay, he
Speaker 6: had hypothermia, but he's alive.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she rested her on life there.
Speaker 1: Yes, she saved her life, and that's always awesome. But
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'd have done that icy river.
Speaker 1: I don't think I hear. I don't think I have
Speaker 1: the guts.
Speaker 2: And it's real cold. Somebody could start yelling help and
Speaker 2: I'd run to it.
Speaker 1: I'd been like, yeah, help, Yeah, somebody, somebody help. He said,

Speaker 2: Now we're good. I got a really cool Cody Johnson
Speaker 2: story for you.
Speaker 1: I literally gave my phone to Brandy and said I
Speaker 1: can't take it anymore because there's like one hundred and
Speaker 1: five text messages on there and I have no clue
Speaker 1: who they're from.
Speaker 2: So I'll decipher through that almost sixteen hour ride back to.
Speaker 1: Texas, so one. Congrats to Cody. That's awesome too. What
Speaker 1: was the moment in your life that was your phone
Speaker 1: blew up moment? It can be good or bad, but
Speaker 1: but all of a sudden you look at you.
Speaker 2: Like, holy crap. I got a lot of text messages, Amy,
Speaker 2: I'll go to you first.
Speaker 1: Gosh.
Speaker 4: Just a recent one for me would probably be when
Speaker 4: we announced that I was getting divorced on air.
Speaker 2: People were texting you after that. Yeah, I heard the set.
Speaker 2: What are they like?
Speaker 5: What?
Speaker 4: What was the I think it was people in our
Speaker 4: inner circle knew people closed, especially in Nashville, but just
Speaker 4: so many people, you know, being from Austin and we'ren
Speaker 4: Air there and so many people that I grew up with,
Speaker 4: and they just weren't aware because we kept it so
Speaker 4: like to our tight group. And I just started to
Speaker 4: get random texts of support and just thinking of y'all
Speaker 4: praying for you, and I was like, oh, okay, that's
Speaker 4: why she's over yeah or hey, we went through the
Speaker 4: same thing, like.
Speaker 5: Let me know how I can help y'all. So I
Speaker 5: think that that tops the list for some stuff.
Speaker 2: Lunchbox. Your phone blowing up moment.
Speaker 6: As easy as when I'm We're in the marathon without
Speaker 6: any training.
Speaker 2: I mean, people didn't think I could do it.
Speaker 6: And when I got done, I mean I had so
Speaker 6: many text messages took me a couple of days to
Speaker 6: respond if I responded, just people saying what a beast
Speaker 6: I was.
Speaker 2: And you know, you know what year though, twenty ten? Yeah,
Speaker 2: maybe fourteen year more than wasn't born yet, Eddie.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think when I did my walk from West
Speaker 7: Virginia to Tennessee, but it was cool because like when
Speaker 7: you were walking, you know, twenty five miles a day,
Speaker 7: like you have nothing else to do. So when people
Speaker 7: were texting, it was cool. I text back, but I
Speaker 7: got lots of texts. I think I was texting the
Speaker 7: whole time. Then when at the end of the day
Speaker 7: we were at the hotel, I just responded more texts.
Speaker 7: A lot of texts came in that time.
Speaker 1: If your new Eddie walked from West Virginia to Tennessee
Speaker 1: just like the song, because he came on there going
Speaker 1: that's all that far right and so over like then't
Speaker 1: do it. And he raised a couple hundred thousand bucks
Speaker 1: for it was amazing for foster children, and his foot
Speaker 1: still hurts he has an injury in his foot. A sacrifice, yeah,
Speaker 1: hey for the kids, man, sacrifice for the kids. I
Speaker 1: don't think you knew your foot was going to be hurt,
Speaker 1: but I think, yeah, that's one mine is whenever I
Speaker 1: want to dancing with the stars.
Speaker 2: Oh for sure.
Speaker 1: I didn't even know something people were that were texting me,
Speaker 1: and I hate red dots, so I spent out right
Speaker 1: afterwards just trying to clear it off, and then I
Speaker 1: just would copy and paste hey hey man, thanks. But
Speaker 1: then I realized everybody wasn't a man, and I was
Speaker 1: sending hey man, I know.
Speaker 5: All three of y'alls are all physically taxing.
Speaker 1: Us.
Speaker 5: Mine was emotionally taxing.
Speaker 1: I think mine's more emotionally taxing physically though, Oh really,

Speaker 7: Jared is from Mesquite, Texas, and when he was a
Speaker 7: little kid, he remembers his dad talking about this Chevy
Speaker 7: Camaro that he had, a nineteen sixty seven Camaro. Loved it,
Speaker 7: but he had to get rid of it because well,
Speaker 7: he had kids, he had to buy diapers. He couldn't
Speaker 7: afford it anymore, so he had to sell it. Well,
Speaker 7: now Jared's older, he said, you know what, I'm going
Speaker 7: to try to find this Camaro for my dad. So
Speaker 7: he went on a nationwide search and turns out it
Speaker 7: was only seventy miles away. He found the exact camaro.
Speaker 7: It took him two years to restore it. But now
Speaker 7: his dad turned sixty five and he surprised him for
Speaker 7: his birthday. That's pretty awesome, Dad, here's the Camaro that
Speaker 7: you had to sacrifice for us that you like, replaying
Speaker 7: the voice of the kid, Well, I kind of feel
Speaker 7: it because since I became a dad, I start realizing
Speaker 7: and I never thought about it, but when I became
Speaker 7: a dad, I was like, man, my dad really like
Speaker 7: sacrifice a lot for us, and I didn't realize it then.
Speaker 2: So I wish I could have.
Speaker 1: Done something like this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you could have got on a camaro. I
Speaker 2: don't know.
Speaker 1: He never had a came anybody.
Speaker 7: Maybe.
Speaker 5: No, your kids can do something like this for you,
Speaker 5: play this for him?
Speaker 2: What would that be?
Speaker 1: Though you haven't given him much, You haven't really given
Speaker 1: it that much. He played a lot of golf. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I do.
Speaker 2: Also, Amy's looking for a Broncos still.
Speaker 5: Yeah, my kids and saying, mom, I sacrifice it for them.
Speaker 2: But that's okay, who cares? Yeah, you just want the Bronco,
Speaker 2: all right, That's what it's all about. That was telling
Speaker 2: me something. Good time now for Amy's morning.
Speaker 1: Corny, the mourning corny.
Speaker 5: What do you call a stolen spud?
Speaker 2: What do you call a stolen spud?
Speaker 5: Hot potato?
Speaker 2: Hot potato?
Speaker 1: Got it?
Speaker 2: That was the mourning corny. You know, the saying open sesame?
Speaker 5: Yeah, open sesame?
Speaker 2: I say it, open sesame. What do you think that means?
Speaker 2: Open sesame?
Speaker 4: I can honestly say, I've never thought about this, but
Speaker 4: is it that? Do sesame seeds come in little shells
Speaker 4: like a pistachio and you have.
Speaker 5: To open them.
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's true. I read open sesame.
Speaker 1: Was originally open says me, Open says me, and now
Speaker 1: it's said open sesame because it's been said wrong so
Speaker 1: many times. Open says me, open says me, open says me,
Speaker 1: just turned into open sesame.
Speaker 5: Oh okay, I see how that happened for you.
Speaker 1: A fly to Dallas, they had a duck tape of
Speaker 1: guy down to a seat because he was trying to
Speaker 1: open the door. I wonder if plans have extra duct
Speaker 1: tape now, because it seems like that's what you do
Speaker 1: to somebody who's out of control. It's just duct tape them.
Speaker 1: But I have audio of this. So the guy's trying
Speaker 1: to open the door and they all jump hold him down.
Speaker 1: Here's one of the passengers talking about apprehending the guy.
Speaker 2: There was no time. He was too beat from the door.
Speaker 1: It was just chaos. He was going for the door,
Speaker 1: and so I just grabbed the guy from behind and
Speaker 1: kept him from pulling the thing on the door. You know,
Speaker 1: we were on our knees holding him down. Do you
Speaker 1: think you beat the crap out of him first if
Speaker 1: you have the ability to, because I think I would
Speaker 1: not that I have the ability. But if I did
Speaker 1: have the ability and somebody's going crazy, I need to
Speaker 1: restrain him. I'm going to beat the crap out of
Speaker 1: him first and hopefully knock him out and then tie
Speaker 1: him out.
Speaker 5: Oh gosh, knock him out. To see that seems risky
Speaker 5: to me.
Speaker 2: You know, it's risky pushing the door of the airplane,
Speaker 2: and I.
Speaker 4: Know I'm in for like a little jabb or kick,
Speaker 4: But like, I don't know about beat the crap.
Speaker 1: I think I would just try to beat the crap
Speaker 1: out of him, knock him out, you're right, capacitate him,
Speaker 1: and then duct tape him down. Yeh, it'd be easier
Speaker 1: to duck takeing the tape of maybecause not absolutely.
Speaker 5: Oh they might just put them a sleeper.
Speaker 2: That's not a real thing.
Speaker 1: Oh it's nice, like wrestling on the handle dropped too.
Speaker 1: Here's another one. This is a flight flying to Miami.
Speaker 1: It had to turn around when it hit serious turbulence.
Speaker 1: There's a video. Don't watch it. Oh yeah, I know
Speaker 1: it's scary because everybody's screaming. I hate turbulence. I hate flying. So,
Speaker 1: by the way, no one was seriously hurt, but it
Speaker 1: is crazy.
Speaker 2: Here we go hit it.
Speaker 5: Sam, everybody?
Speaker 1: Right, that is that sounds like a It's like a
Speaker 1: movie where the crushed on a deserted island left lived
Speaker 1: there for years. Did you watch the video?
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course I watched the video.
Speaker 1: So was it one bump or was it lots of bumps?
Speaker 1: That was one of the bigger bumps, But I think
Speaker 1: there was some turbulence leading into it with one humongous drop. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I only saw one person's angle and I just saw
Speaker 4: stuff flying in the air and people freaking out and like,
Speaker 4: to me, it sounds like a roller coaster.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it does play that first part again.
Speaker 5: Right, No, that's an airplane. It's not a rollercoaster.
Speaker 2: And you have to think too.
Speaker 1: Everybody doesn't have their phones on the whole time. They
Speaker 1: only turn it on once the turbulence starts going, right,
Speaker 1: so they're catching like the biggest moment of it.
Speaker 2: Uh that's that makes me not feel good? Am I
Speaker 2: like stern them?
Speaker 4: And it was like just like a flight to Miami.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it seems like that's happening somewhere else.
Speaker 1: Which would you rather have happened on your flight? One
Speaker 1: quick boom turbulens in your backup to normal. But everybody
Speaker 1: screams or a guy trying to open the door, and
Speaker 1: they got to beat him up and.
Speaker 2: Duct tape him.
Speaker 5: The duct tape guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he could actually open the door. No, he can't.
Speaker 5: He cannot know that. That turbulence video there, you're scarred
Speaker 5: for life. Probably duct tape guy. You're like, can you
Speaker 5: believe he was on the flight?
Speaker 1: It's a fight.
Speaker 2: You convinced me.
Speaker 1: Earlier we were talking about open sesame, which was originally open,
Speaker 1: says me, But now we say open sesame. There's another
Speaker 1: thing that I saw. I only want to give you
Speaker 1: the first part of it because I don't want to
Speaker 1: ruin it. So the blank one Eddie two song was
Speaker 1: mage again?
Speaker 5: Right, what's my age again? What's my age again? What's
Speaker 5: my age again?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: That's it again.
Speaker 1: So if I go. I took her out.
Speaker 2: It was a Friday night.
Speaker 5: Let's get alone. I get to feel them right, hold on,
Speaker 5: start again.
Speaker 2: I took her out. It was a Friday night.
Speaker 5: I was alone.
Speaker 2: No, what I right? So this is what tell me?
Speaker 2: This is right.
Speaker 1: I took her out. It was a Friday night. I
Speaker 1: walk alone and get the feeling right. I started making
Speaker 1: right it's I work alone.
Speaker 2: It's not I walk alone.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because they're together. So that's why I've always said alone.
Speaker 4: But then you're like, I took her out. It was
Speaker 4: a Friday night, and then why would he be alone?
Speaker 1: But I walk alone is how I've sang that. Yeah, forever,
Speaker 1: You're right, it makes no sense. I wore alone.
Speaker 5: That got her feeling right, You get the feeling right.
Speaker 2: Took her out.
Speaker 1: It was a Friday night. I wore alone to get
Speaker 1: the feeling right. I never knew is I work alone.
Speaker 1: I'm saying this long ten million times same, never make
Speaker 1: no I know the rest of this. And that's about
Speaker 1: the time she walked away from me. So you can
Speaker 1: tell all your friends, hey sing like to I'm gonna
Speaker 1: do that. I'll be like a walk alone.
Speaker 5: So do you all wear do you'all work alone? To
Speaker 5: get that?
Speaker 1: I don't have.
Speaker 2: I don't even own.
Speaker 5: Cologne feeling right?
Speaker 2: Oh, I work alone on date night.
Speaker 7: I finally found a cologne that I love. Gosh that

Speaker 5: means fake?
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you mean?
Speaker 2: It's put on a costume? No, it's just a little
Speaker 2: it's not a clean thing.
Speaker 5: I know that you're a very clean person. That's my point,
Speaker 5: and you like you typically.
Speaker 2: Colon make you cleaner.
Speaker 1: When Keith Urban walks here, you don't go, I'm not
Speaker 1: clone guy.
Speaker 2: I'm I'm not hating non clone people. I'm just not
Speaker 2: cloned guy.
Speaker 4: But don't you think it's fair for us to say
Speaker 4: it's odd to us you're not cologne guy. No, oh,
Speaker 4: it's always been audenic.
Speaker 1: I didn't wear deodorant. I think you could go it's
Speaker 1: odd to us you're not a deodorant guy. But I
Speaker 1: even keep deodering here at work, just in case I forget.
Speaker 5: Okay, okay, I just have always feels cheesy to Gea.
Speaker 4: I know, for all these years, I've always thought, how
Speaker 4: is Bobby not cologne guy?
Speaker 1: You should give it a shot, man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want to be clone.
Speaker 5: Everything else about you screams like, oh it does it?
Speaker 1: Don't say I stream Colone guy.
Speaker 2: Wow, I'm so exulted. Okay, on the Bobby Bones Show. Now,
Speaker 2: Matt Ramsey from Old Dominion, he's here.
Speaker 1: What's up, hey? Yes, yes, yes hey. First of all,
Speaker 1: congratulations on another CMA. My question for you guys, because
Speaker 1: you've done it so many years in a row. Now,
Speaker 1: when you get styled or you as a band, you
Speaker 1: pick out your clothes, does one style let's work with
Speaker 1: all of you together so you kind of look like
Speaker 1: a boy band kind of matching kind of not? Or
Speaker 1: do you all do it separately and just show up
Speaker 1: and hope you don't like accidentally wear the same thing.
Speaker 3: No, we have the same stylist. She's been with us
Speaker 3: for a really long time, so yeah, she's she kind
Speaker 3: of knows what our preferences.
Speaker 1: At this point, I feel like a pretty solid question.
Speaker 2: I'ma be honest with you.
Speaker 1: It's pretty good, yeah, because i'd kind of want to
Speaker 1: like have a theme pretty good. Yeah, Yeah, I like
Speaker 1: I want to give myself propers for that question. I've
Speaker 1: always wondered that. So and then you win again and
Speaker 1: you're absolutely deserving of it, no doubt about it. You
Speaker 1: guys have so many hits, but at this point a
Speaker 1: little bit like you're gonna win until you don't when
Speaker 1: they're about to say the name at this point, right
Speaker 1: like you like, it's probably gonna be us.
Speaker 3: You know, this time it did not feel like that,
Speaker 3: you know. I mean, I think at some point in
Speaker 3: the run it probably did feel like that, But this
Speaker 3: time I think it was just a little bit more
Speaker 3: nerve wracking because obviously there was a record at stake,
Speaker 3: and you know, there's there's some new guys in the category,
Speaker 3: and you know, so you never know anyway, such everyone
Speaker 3: in this category is so good and kind of so
Speaker 3: on the same level.
Speaker 1: Seven consecutive Vocal Group of the Year awards unbelievable. The
Speaker 1: only streak that's better is min Non being late to
Speaker 1: work street That's it. That's number one, and seven consecutive
Speaker 1: is number two.
Speaker 3: Hey, so you're calling it's hard to achieve.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I agree. I expect to be at work
Speaker 1: though you're starting to doubt yourself the Yeah, So I
Speaker 1: do want to talk about the seven for seven Rhyman Residency,
Speaker 1: which you guys are going to play a bunch of
Speaker 1: shows at the Ryman seven for seven, So what's the
Speaker 1: deal with the title I think I know, and then also,
Speaker 1: why are you doing these shows?
Speaker 3: Seven consecutive wins? Seven consecutive shows? Was the idea just
Speaker 3: to figure out a way to like celebrate it in
Speaker 3: a big way and give back, because man, we're so
Speaker 3: blessed and have gotten so much out of this career
Speaker 3: and our fans and you guys and want us to
Speaker 3: figure out a way to like give it back a
Speaker 3: little bit. So we thought we'd take seven different charities.
Speaker 3: Each show would be for a different charity. It'd be
Speaker 3: just a fun way to have a hometown residency. We
Speaker 3: love the rhyman so much. It's a good way to
Speaker 3: give back a little bit of what, you know, we've
Speaker 3: been given.
Speaker 1: What song do you guys play in the crowd? Sings?
Speaker 1: Allowed us back?
Speaker 3: Memory Lane is insanely laught, like playing with the monitor.
Speaker 3: Yeah you remember that when you sing it?
Speaker 1: I do remember. You guys have so many number ones.
Speaker 1: It's like I just see a title that I'm like,
Speaker 1: which which one was that? Which one was that got it?
Speaker 1: So they yeah, that's your favorite one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the one.
Speaker 1: You're doing all these shows and you've picked all the
Speaker 1: different charities. Tickets are on selling. Now you guys can
Speaker 1: buy tickets to go watch Old Dominion and you can. Man,
Speaker 1: that's it. Do you feel any imposter syndrome at all?
Speaker 1: Meaning if I had seven shows up, I'd be scared
Speaker 1: to death that like none would sell out or only
Speaker 1: three or six? Like, how do you? How's your mental
Speaker 1: health when it comes to selling tickets?
Speaker 3: I definitely have that fear. You know, with every show,
Speaker 3: I'm like, I wonder if anybody's gonna be here tonight.
Speaker 3: You know, it always works out pretty good.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 3: When I was talking to our agent, I was like,
Speaker 3: is this a stupid idea? Tell me if we're going
Speaker 3: to get down to the end and nobody's going to
Speaker 3: be there, And he was like, I think we're gonna
Speaker 3: be good, dude, Like, just stick to it.
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna be good too. I think they're
Speaker 1: going to sell so fast and a lot of them
Speaker 1: already have. You guys can go to Old Dominion Music,
Speaker 1: which is the Instagram. Find the link there. They're doing
Speaker 1: seven for seven. It's a Rhyman residency in Nashville, all
Speaker 1: to benefit charity. You guys have a bar that's ODI's
Speaker 1: is going to open up. What's gonna be the different
Speaker 1: thing about ODI's than a lot of these other bars
Speaker 1: that these artists opened.
Speaker 3: For one thing, it's in midtown. Most of them are
Speaker 3: most of them are downtown, but this one's in midtown
Speaker 3: and just something that we really care about. We really
Speaker 3: put a lot of work into it. So, you know,
Speaker 3: the other bars don't really have anything to do with us.
Speaker 3: So in one way, it's going to be you know,
Speaker 3: that's the main difference. This one's going to have something
Speaker 3: to do with us. Yeah, we're not trying to make
Speaker 3: it a big museum for old dominion. We're just trying
Speaker 3: to make it a place that kind of has the
Speaker 3: like feel good vibe that we try to project with
Speaker 3: everything that we do, and you know, we're just going
Speaker 3: to try to really showcase the local original talent.
Speaker 1: I want to ask you a couple more questions. If
Speaker 1: as a band, you guys were going to the CMAS
Speaker 1: and how would you describe, Like, what is the dress
Speaker 1: code at the CMAS?
Speaker 2: Would you say it's more formal.
Speaker 3: Than most of them. I would say it's a pretty formal.
Speaker 3: You know, we were wearing tuxes.
Speaker 1: What if one of the guys, like most all the
Speaker 1: guys were in like suits, but one of the guys
Speaker 1: wanted to wear a hoodie and jeans. How would the
Speaker 1: band feel about that? Man, you do you you know?
Speaker 3: Do you think it's that's what you want to wear?
Speaker 3: Man's go for it.
Speaker 1: It feels like you're talking down to them a little bit, though, No,
Speaker 1: not at all, man, Like, we're so far past that.
Speaker 1: I guess you guys are.
Speaker 3: We've been together. We've been together for so long. Man,
Speaker 3: if you don't want you know, look, we have a
Speaker 3: fifth member. Believe it or not. He doesn't come to
Speaker 3: those things because he just finally said to us, like, guys,
Speaker 3: that really stresses me out. I don't really want to
Speaker 3: be there. And we said, that's okay, man, stay home.
Speaker 1: He can't wear hoodie jeans. That's why we went to that.
Speaker 1: We got our CMA Award this year, and Lunchbox showed
Speaker 1: up in a hoodie and everybody else was in a
Speaker 1: full suit and tie, and we were just like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's a little more formal than this. So I wondered
Speaker 1: what you guys would have done as a group.
Speaker 3: I see now where the question was.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and that's why he wanted you to say I'm
Speaker 6: a loser. And I'm an idiot if we're wearing that,
Speaker 6: but you are on my side, so yeah, I am
Speaker 6: old dominion all the way.
Speaker 3: I'll be at your bar up lunch, come on.
Speaker 1: But exactly we're not old dominion. Hey, congratulations Matt Matthew
