Speaker 1: was an honor kind of to have him come out

Speaker 1: beaver check soon? No, no, no, that's let's road. Nice
Speaker 1: job fellas. You know. I know what it's like now
Speaker 1: because I've been jaded a bit after being a a
Speaker 1: lot of shows. When someone yells at your hometown, you
Speaker 1: feel excited and you're like, oh, so that I've lost. However,
Speaker 1: I wasn't expecting the rhyme with Bobby Bones and I
Speaker 1: was like, oh, I just worked or something. It was.
Speaker 1: It was a it was a low hanging fruit. We
Speaker 1: had to get it. Um. So let's kind of start
Speaker 1: at the beginning here. I know you guys from knowing
Speaker 1: Kane Brown, right. I think Kane is what interest who
Speaker 1: introduced me to you guys? So Garrett, what's the situation.
Speaker 1: How do you guys know Kine? Well, Colton. Colton can
Speaker 1: probably tell you that. So, um, we know came from
Speaker 1: back in two thousand and thirteen. We were all on
Speaker 1: the TV show The X Factor together and that's kind
Speaker 1: of where Russell's Roads started. And um, we were kind
Speaker 1: of all we all met each other in Los Angeles
Speaker 1: and Hollywood week and um, it was we were kind
Speaker 1: of all pitted against each other, or so we thought,
Speaker 1: and then um, coming to find out, No, they were
Speaker 1: all along trying to set up this for this four
Speaker 1: person group, and Kane was supposed to be in Wrestless Road.
Speaker 1: But then Kane decided he wanted to go on and
Speaker 1: to solo stuff and he became the Kane Brown that
Speaker 1: everybody knew some loves. And we continued. So, Zach, when
Speaker 1: you're from whichaw, Kansas? My family actually lives there now,
Speaker 1: but I was born and raised in Iowa. Then I
Speaker 1: lived in Michigan and Pennsylvania. My dad, he's a choir director,
Speaker 1: so he got a job at Wichita State University. So
Speaker 1: that's why I call home now. Okay, shocker shout out.
Speaker 1: So your home now is Wichita? Well, I just call
Speaker 1: home wherever my family lives from. Hon't you live here?
Speaker 1: That's tough. And then the thing where so you moved
Speaker 1: around a whole lot and your dad was a choir instructor. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's a choir director. So does was he hard on you? No? Honestly,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't actually ever let him hear me sing. It
Speaker 1: was weird. I don't know what it was like. I
Speaker 1: wanted to prove it on my own or something. I
Speaker 1: would never let him help me sing. And I eventually
Speaker 1: joined choir myself. He wasn't my teacher, but I joined
Speaker 1: because I was moving school so much. I needed to
Speaker 1: do something to kind of make friends and I kind
Speaker 1: of fit in, so I just kept up with it.
Speaker 1: And yeah, it's my dream honestly to do like a
Speaker 1: choir remix to one of our songs and have my
Speaker 1: dad come out and like conduct the choir. So with
Speaker 1: the stick he's got this actually got him a custom
Speaker 1: one for Christmas. There. It's called ah but Tom. I
Speaker 1: don't know, actually don't know, but yeah, the choir guy's son.
Speaker 1: You should know, you're Yeah, you're you're you're a son
Speaker 1: and you I've never been in a choir before. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's got the stick and everything. So rest the name
Speaker 1: Restless Road what is the what's the genesis of that?
Speaker 1: I wish it had a really cool story. I don't
Speaker 1: know what came first, the name or the meaning let's
Speaker 1: make up. Let's just make up a name that they've
Speaker 1: really told us, you know, on the show, they said, hey,
Speaker 1: we need a name by the end of the day.
Speaker 1: And we were coming up with just everything we could
Speaker 1: and nothing was sticking, and we just said restless road.
Speaker 1: And the guy was like, man, that sounds like some
Speaker 1: and we never looked back, you know, And now now
Speaker 1: I feel like it kind of has taken on its
Speaker 1: own meaning. This whole journey to get to this point
Speaker 1: in life in general, for everybody, it's it's a wrestless road.
Speaker 1: It's it's you never know what you're gonna get. And
Speaker 1: we have this whole catchphrase and it's called keep your
Speaker 1: eyes on the road, and it's just all about staying
Speaker 1: focused on your dream and your goal. And that's kind
Speaker 1: of so it's kind of I feel like developed the meaning.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you a meaning. So when you guys met,
Speaker 1: you hit it off, and you all were like on
Speaker 1: ancestry dot com or one of those sites, and you
Speaker 1: realize when you look back into your history that all
Speaker 1: of your grandparents lived on Restless Avenue, but Wrestless Avenue
Speaker 1: didn't sound good, so crazy coincidence that they all live
Speaker 1: in the same place because they were all fighting for
Speaker 1: America in World War One and they lived on Wrestless Avenue.
Speaker 1: And you're like, wow, we can't believe that we're all
Speaker 1: matched together. This has got to be some sign from God.
Speaker 1: And so instead of Wrestless Avenue, you're like, let's just
Speaker 1: say Restless Road because it sounds better. And then now
Speaker 1: representing USA U three Restless Road, that's your new story.
Speaker 1: You can have it free. Well I'm glad you said
Speaker 1: that because my free trial on answertry dot com ran
Speaker 1: out before I got Okay, that's great. You know what's
Speaker 1: really ironic though, that you say that my grandpa after
Speaker 1: we were on the show, he changed the name of
Speaker 1: my home the road that we lived one in our hometown.
Speaker 1: And it's not a total lie, so let's go literally live.
Speaker 1: He really did change it. And then he got really
Speaker 1: mad because my grandpa's like kind of a recluse, so
Speaker 1: he doesn't like people. And so there was two like
Speaker 1: there was people stopping by because when we were rolling
Speaker 1: the show. People were wanting to stop by and see
Speaker 1: where this was. And he went out there and chopped
Speaker 1: the whole sign down and never put it back out.
Speaker 1: So I don't know if it's still legally Wrestless Road,
Speaker 1: but we're gonna we're gonna say it is Wrestless Avenue.
Speaker 1: That whole situation works. So what's the living situation with
Speaker 1: you guys? You guys live together? Me and Zach do.
Speaker 1: We live Overnice, Nashville and Colton. He has a beautiful family,
Speaker 1: he's married, he has two little girls. Why don't you
Speaker 1: move in with them? He's got to have room. Now,
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know. I don't know if he
Speaker 1: I don't know if he can handle two more for
Speaker 1: the phone calls. Dude, So are you guys known as uncle? Oh? Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're Uncle Gee and Uncle Zach. Yeah. And your kids
Speaker 1: are how old? Two and four? I mean you're like sixteen?
Speaker 1: How do you have to get kids? I know, man,
Speaker 1: I've been married for seven years too already. Wow, twenty
Speaker 1: and so? Yeah, and you grew up where West Virginia?
Speaker 1: Now did you ever make the walk to Tennessee? And
Speaker 1: I say that because Eddie did from West Virginia. I
Speaker 1: know a few people that's done it. Um, y'all are
Speaker 1: a different breed of people. Man, I lived I lived
Speaker 1: out there, and I don't think that you couldn't catch
Speaker 1: me walking that far. It's it is a long walk. Colton.
Speaker 1: What what's your hometown? Like? Small? Real small? Um? We
Speaker 1: had uh, we have one one stop sign, one gas station, um,
Speaker 1: and it there's about two. Last time they did a census,
Speaker 1: there was two hundred and seventy two people in the town.
Speaker 1: So everybody knows everyone. Um. But it's it's honestly really
Speaker 1: cool because I feel like, uh, just West Virginia in general,
Speaker 1: they tend to rally around people that are doing stuff
Speaker 1: because not a lot of people get out of West
Speaker 1: Virginia and and do something. So, UM, it's been it's
Speaker 1: been a really awesome experience and being able to go back.
Speaker 1: They actually, I don't know if this is this is
Speaker 1: it's weird, but they put I've seen you have a
Speaker 1: sign in your hometown and they put home of Colton
Speaker 1: pack um in front of mine, which was a really cool,
Speaker 1: really cool moment um. So they're they're definitely proud. It's
Speaker 1: it's it's a really cool a really cool thing and
Speaker 1: I love to get to go back when I can. So,
Speaker 1: so you're from West Virginia and then Zach like where
Speaker 1: it is? I know you see your family in which
Speaker 1: town now? But to you, where's home? As a kid,
Speaker 1: you gotta be you gotta pick a place? Where would
Speaker 1: it be? It's it's really hard. Um. I've always said
Speaker 1: I kind of feel like I don't have a hometown.
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll write a song about it. That's crazy that
Speaker 1: you feel that you feel like you don't have a hometown. Um,
Speaker 1: but in a lot of ways, it's it's something that
Speaker 1: my dad would would apologize for later on and be like,
Speaker 1: I'm really sorry that, you know, we had to move around.
Speaker 1: But I actually really value and appreciate that experience because
Speaker 1: it really forced me to come out of my show
Speaker 1: and uh just adapt the new situations. And I've applied
Speaker 1: that a lot to what we're doing today. Um. But
Speaker 1: I feel sad for him now. I feel sad for
Speaker 1: you being acquired director. You know, military, you expect I
Speaker 1: feel like you have a hometown. Yeah, well I got
Speaker 1: friends in a lot of places. I got you know,
Speaker 1: I loved my Michigan friends. That was kind of where
Speaker 1: I feel like I that's where I started singing. That's
Speaker 1: where I did this time town East Lansing. Okay, there
Speaker 1: it is. There's his hometown. Okay. My question would be
Speaker 1: if like you were playing Monday night football and he's like,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm from home too, Mountain Pine Ark and
Speaker 1: tell Bob. You'd be like, oh, I don't have a hometown.
Speaker 1: Or we'd be like, I gotta change it because I
Speaker 1: feel sad again he watch football now, you know, but
Speaker 1: I like it. I like your attitude about it. Um,
Speaker 1: Whenever you guys started playing together, did you feel like, oh, man,
Speaker 1: I kind of wanted to be solo and now we're together.
Speaker 1: Was that that kind of a process to get through?
Speaker 1: Or we like, man, we actually are a lot better
Speaker 1: together than we were by ourselves. This is way more
Speaker 1: fun being a group. This, yeah, would be. I just think,
Speaker 1: you know, being a group obviously comes with more challenges.
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to make some sacrifices, and I'm sure
Speaker 1: there's things that we don't even know about down the
Speaker 1: road we're gonna have to work together on. But for me,
Speaker 1: it's just so much fun. There's no joke. They're my
Speaker 1: best friends and we and everyone thinks that we're brothers,
Speaker 1: but it feels like it and it's just we we
Speaker 1: love making music together and we just love what we do,
Speaker 1: and um, you still like each other. Yeah, we haven't
Speaker 1: had a we haven't had a blowout yet. You really haven't,
Speaker 1: and we really have it. But we're honestly, I feel
Speaker 1: like we're pretty we're pretty good about like communication skill
Speaker 1: as soon as Yeah, if something's like a problems arising immediately,
Speaker 1: we just we just say how we feel. When we
Speaker 1: work it out, we say, we say it, we get
Speaker 1: past it, and we move on. Is there a voting protocol?
Speaker 1: Like if hey, two one you know wins, how do
Speaker 1: you guys do that? Well? I think I think what's
Speaker 1: cool about us is, you know, over the years that
Speaker 1: we've been together, like we all came from different places.
Speaker 1: We have very different voices and styles. But I think
Speaker 1: that's what's cool is we kind of bounce off each other,
Speaker 1: and you know, it's it's cool to hear their perspective
Speaker 1: because I might think, you know, something sounds cool, but
Speaker 1: they'll have a different perspective, and you know, it's it's
Speaker 1: cool to bounce ideas off each other and then kind
Speaker 1: of be like, hey, maybe I wasn't right, maybe that
Speaker 1: was a little cooler. So you're from Tuscaloos, Alabama, I am,
Speaker 1: how's that working out for you? Well? I always tell
Speaker 1: people this, um, because you know, people either love or
Speaker 1: hate that you're from Tuscaloosa. They're like, oh, real tied
Speaker 1: or they're like, oh dude, no. But when I turned
Speaker 1: to when I started talking, my parents said, you can
Speaker 1: either live with us here at home or we're gonna
Speaker 1: take you to the woods and you can figure it out.
Speaker 1: You gotta be a real tied fan. I said, okay,
Speaker 1: so you're forced into it. Yeah. I grew up there.
Speaker 1: I was there till I was eighteen, moved to Nashville after,
Speaker 1: so I kind of have to be yah. See, I
Speaker 1: am not. I feel a bit the opposite. I actually
Speaker 1: really enjoy going to Tuscaloosa. But I am not an
Speaker 1: Alabama fan at all. But I'm just jealous that you
Speaker 1: guys are really good, and so I take that out
Speaker 1: on you. But my hatred is jealousy. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: It's it's been weird, like with all the football success,
Speaker 1: you know, it's been weird watching sports growing up because
Speaker 1: when I was a young kid. We didn't have Nick Saban.
Speaker 1: I think he a huge part of that. But yeah,
Speaker 1: it was crazy seeing seeing where they were and how
Speaker 1: they are now. It was just a big change. And
Speaker 1: you get do three hometown shows whenever you're touring, like
Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna do Yeah, Well there, I promise you.
Speaker 1: There's probably no chance we're ever going to my hometown.
Speaker 1: There's there's not enough people. Yeah, we will think we're
Speaker 1: going to Yeah, we gotta go back. Hey when we
Speaker 1: are going to West Virginia. So I kind of take
Speaker 1: West Virginia as my whole home. I feel the same
Speaker 1: way about our can saw anywhere I can saw. This's
Speaker 1: like exactly exactly. You guys are all over. I'm looking
Speaker 1: at all these dates that you guys are doing. And
Speaker 1: so when you play a live show and it's you three, like,
Speaker 1: are you able to cover the whole? I mean musically,
Speaker 1: you guys have it all right here with you three.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure you got a drummer, but like, what,
Speaker 1: what's what do you guys doing there on the set?
Speaker 1: Tell him about our guitars? Um, Yeah, So it's actually
Speaker 1: so Garrett plays guitar, Zach plays guitar. I play guitar
Speaker 1: and piano UM and uh, it's really cool. So I
Speaker 1: went to UM. Our lead guitar player is actually from
Speaker 1: my high school. So he moved to Nashville. I used
Speaker 1: to try to get him to move to Nashville early
Speaker 1: on because he's just unbelievable at what he does. And
Speaker 1: he actually moved to Nashville where I did. After all
Speaker 1: that time, and then when the opportunity arise, I told him.
Speaker 1: I said, man, we'd love to have you in the band.
Speaker 1: And he's been playing with us. So it's been really
Speaker 1: cool to get to see two people from the middle
Speaker 1: of nowhere, West Virginia on the big stage show. I
Speaker 1: guess I asked that because you know, you gotta pay people. True,
Speaker 1: you know, and at one point the Wrestless Road money
Speaker 1: is gonna be coming in pretty good. I hope. Right
Speaker 1: now you're trying to figure it out. You know, he
Speaker 1: got all those mouths to feed it is. That's very true.
Speaker 1: That's very true. I mean, right now we do have
Speaker 1: a drummer and in a lead guitar player, but other
Speaker 1: than that, we kind of that's pretty full sounding. That's
Speaker 1: pretty awesome, you guys, can I hope you go and
Speaker 1: see Wrestless Road because they have so many dates. Um
Speaker 1: and we'll tell you just a second about that. But
Speaker 1: the thing that interests me to about new artists is
Speaker 1: when they get asked to do something like The Bachelor,
Speaker 1: like to perform on that show, because I just feel
Speaker 1: so awkward because do you have to do it over
Speaker 1: and over again? Did it any way to dive into this?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because that's that to me, that's always fascinating.
Speaker 1: And have a few friends that have done it, and
Speaker 1: it just feels weird. So what who did they bring
Speaker 1: you in for? And what was the scene? We were
Speaker 1: episode four on Clayton's season, and all we knew going in.
Speaker 1: We were huge fans of the show, by the way,
Speaker 1: so when we found out, we were just so pumped
Speaker 1: to be there and we're asking you have to say
Speaker 1: that if you do it, like it's in the contract.
Speaker 1: Probably for eight or nine years now, we've watched it.
Speaker 1: Religious Oh oh yeah, we know, we knew all the facts,
Speaker 1: Like we keep up, we can ask us anything. We won't,
Speaker 1: but I believe you. Yeah, it's the most dramatic season
Speaker 1: of the Bachelor coming out coming up. Anyways, where did
Speaker 1: they send to you just La. We were actually in Houston,
Speaker 1: so we had finished a show we were opening with Kine.
Speaker 1: We've finished the show, flew to Houston and it was
Speaker 1: a date at this like farmhouse. It was a barbecue
Speaker 1: date that they were on, and so during the daytime
Speaker 1: portion we were kind of kept secret and we were
Speaker 1: asking the producers a million questions, how how's the show work?
Speaker 1: We had like a million questions. And then by the
Speaker 1: time the eight dinner I'm using air quotes because they
Speaker 1: don't actually eat the food. They eat dinner at around
Speaker 1: midnight and then there's this big sliding door and we're
Speaker 1: on the other side of it and when the producers
Speaker 1: just like, hey, whenever that door opens, just start and uh.
Speaker 1: The suspense was just killing us because we had to
Speaker 1: be totally silent. It was like eight minutes went by.
Speaker 1: I didn't tell us. They're like, they're like, just watch
Speaker 1: that door and be ready to play, and whenever it opens,
Speaker 1: just scowed it. And we're like, I'm like sitting there
Speaker 1: for I met you forty minutes, just waiting, waiting, waiting,
Speaker 1: and they're it's dead silent. Everybody's whispering. And then the
Speaker 1: producers like out her earpiece and she's like, she's crying.
Speaker 1: The girl's crying, she's and the door finally opened. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and they walked through and they were mean five feet
Speaker 1: away from us and just went for the instant makeout
Speaker 1: and uh, that's really what was What was challenging was
Speaker 1: was keeping the straight face because you can't you have
Speaker 1: to look at him. You can't not look at them,
Speaker 1: but then you feel weird both ways. But it's weird
Speaker 1: both ways. You don't look at him, You're like, we're
Speaker 1: performing to them, but then they're like making out, you know,
Speaker 1: and then then you're just like, my mow for this,
Speaker 1: you only do it one time, we did it a
Speaker 1: few they had to keep kissing. Well, so what was funny? Yeah,
Speaker 1: right after Clayton did this big, massive speech and I
Speaker 1: mean it was like it was perfect. It was the
Speaker 1: perfect speech, and then the producers go, can you please
Speaker 1: say exactly what you said, just like you said it?
Speaker 1: He said, I like those words you use. I like
Speaker 1: to use more of those words. So instead of doing
Speaker 1: the speech, they were just like, no, we're just gonna
Speaker 1: make outens. So then they continue to do that and
Speaker 1: he kept trying to have to stop them and yeah
Speaker 1: it was. We got like two or three minutes with
Speaker 1: him off camera, and they did seem to be like
Speaker 1: all over each other, don't even to the bitter end,
Speaker 1: and she was. It was Rachel, I'm not gonna, you know,
Speaker 1: spoil anything, but Colton wen any finales. Wait, I don't
Speaker 1: even know if this is like it came out like
Speaker 1: what a week like two weeks ago. If you saw it,
Speaker 1: it was the biggest train wreck of a finale. Like
Speaker 1: the guy did probably you know everything, and the girl
Speaker 1: that was a part of our day, she kind of got,
Speaker 1: you know, the short end of the stick, like she
Speaker 1: was her and the she was like second and third
Speaker 1: with the other girl. He just told him both. It
Speaker 1: made her the new bachelorette. Yeah, they gave her, They
Speaker 1: gave her another chance at The funny thing about the
Speaker 1: story is I lost interest after you finish your part.
Speaker 1: I don't care. I mean, I yeah, you guys, we're
Speaker 1: just talking to air after a while. Rachel Susie, I
Speaker 1: don't know what's happening. Yeah, I thought maybe they were
Speaker 1: sharing a story from a year ago. No, no, just yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: just now, yeah, Rachel and Susie. It's a cool thing. No, idea.
Speaker 1: What's happening here? Yes? No, not no, that's Colton. Colton
Speaker 1: was the other bachelor Clinton. Ye. See, there's just so
Speaker 1: many seasons at this point, too many to keep up with.
Speaker 1: Restless Road is here. You guys have a new single.
Speaker 1: I would like for you to play it. Can you
Speaker 1: play the whole thing? We can? Okay? Good, because sometimes
Speaker 1: people come in and I want to play like a
Speaker 1: third of it. Let's just play the first fifteen seconds. See,
Speaker 1: I knew it. I knew there was something up all right.
Speaker 1: Here is Restless Road and they're gonna do their new
Speaker 1: song growing old with you. All right, boys, girl, you
Speaker 1: stole my heart, change, took all of my planes and rearrange.

Speaker 1: travel around world, put some pictures on the shold, hold
Speaker 1: your close and keep the faith raising kids without listening.
Speaker 1: Baby was saved. I feel like a quintle. I feel
Speaker 1: like a quintle. Restless Road, nice job, boys. My favorite
Speaker 1: part of that song is when Zach comes back goes,
Speaker 1: I don't even know what you said now one part. Yes,
Speaker 1: but we're all like we're in the mood. We're dancing
Speaker 1: with theirselfs. We feel like we're on the Bachelor. We're
Speaker 1: doing the Hey, that was good. I like that, Zach.
Speaker 1: Are you known what is that? Are you are your
Speaker 1: baritone or are you a bass? A baritone um? Probably
Speaker 1: more of a baritone, but yeah, I don't know the difference.
Speaker 1: And I wouldn't even tell I don't know. He also
Speaker 1: wanted to tell me the other day. He was like, well, Sue,
Speaker 1: my dad taught me this, and I was like, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I would say, I would say I'm a
Speaker 1: bass singer, but then I'll like, see some video on
Speaker 1: TikTok and see a guy who can sing like way
Speaker 1: lower than me. I'm like, no, he's he's he's the
Speaker 1: real good. But how high can you go? I can
Speaker 1: go so hi? And how low can you go? Oh
Speaker 1: on Bobby bones? Yeah, I think I can do that. Hey,
Speaker 1: So what's that line? No music when you come back in?
Speaker 1: I'm putting on the spot here. When you come back
Speaker 1: let me quite, let me go. Akay, all right and
Speaker 1: go what you say? We put us down some root? Okay,
Speaker 1: that's what I liked. Yeah, you should do that more. Yeah, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: Here's the deal. Restless Road is here. They're launching their
Speaker 1: first ever headlining tour, The Bar Friends Tour starts April
Speaker 1: six in Milwaukee. If you're listening to us in Milwaukee
Speaker 1: or Madison, you can go watch. But they're all over
Speaker 1: the place. Get tickets at restless road dot com. So
Speaker 1: many of the cities that we're in, uh, Grand Rapids, Nashville, Atlanta,
Speaker 1: Saint Louis. I could keep reading it, but you would
Speaker 1: just get annoyed. But go to restless road dot com.
Speaker 1: They're also looking for local openers for their tour, so
Speaker 1: they're picking winners. Uh, we're about to pick winters now.
Speaker 1: So that's pretty cool thing though, trying to find local
Speaker 1: in every city. And they also bring local fans, and
Speaker 1: that's pretty cool too because then you get free people

Speaker 1: buy tickets. Wrestless Road guys appreciate that. Great job. You

Speaker 1: to do? You're like, well, I guess we'll sing like
Speaker 1: it all right? Restless road. You guys, check out Growing
Speaker 1: Old with you. It's the best bits of the week
Speaker 1: with Morgan. Number two. This one definitely caused some drama controversy,
Speaker 1: however you want to put it in the studio because
Speaker 1: Eddie thought Abby was dragging her feet on doing some
Speaker 1: more as her career as an artist is blowing up
Speaker 1: from doing the national anthem. So Bobby and Eddie said
Speaker 1: they would write her an original song that she can perform.
Speaker 1: And Abby was a little reluctant at first, but you know,
Speaker 1: now it might actually be a smash hit. Who knows.
Speaker 1: We don't know what's going to happen, but you can
Speaker 1: hear how it all went down, or I hear at
Speaker 1: number six. Number six, Eddie thinks that Abby is dragging
Speaker 1: her feet on something that she could really capitalize on it. Which,
Speaker 1: by the way, Abby is our phone screener, so she's
Speaker 1: not on the air a lot, but if you call
Speaker 1: the show, you'll talk to her. The think about Abby
Speaker 1: is she likes to sing. She's been on the show
Speaker 1: singing she sang with us the raging idiots. Yeah. She
Speaker 1: then had a song that charted the national anthem what
Speaker 1: she hit seventy one, number seventy one on the charts. Amazing.
Speaker 1: We gave her a cake. We were so proud of her. Abby.
Speaker 1: Are you still kind of living off that buzz? Yeah?
Speaker 1: That is so awesome. See, great, great moment for her
Speaker 1: singing career. Eddie. What is she not doing? Guys? She's
Speaker 1: got to take the next step. The iron is hot,
Speaker 1: so write an original song. It's your chance now to
Speaker 1: come up with something good. Bobby will play it on
Speaker 1: the show. Record labels are listening. This is her big shot,
Speaker 1: and she's dragging her feet because the more time she waits,
Speaker 1: I mean, the more people are gonna forget about her. Eddie,
Speaker 1: have you already written something? Yes, dude, I gave her
Speaker 1: a melody. I wrote her something on the guitar and
Speaker 1: I said, look, just do your story. We all follow
Speaker 1: your life story. You're finally have a boyfriend like this
Speaker 1: could be your song, So you need her to write it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I gave her like a template. And why don't we?
Speaker 1: Why don't you and I? Because like Jason Aldeane doesn't
Speaker 1: really write his own song singer and he sings a
Speaker 1: bunch of hits. Why don't you and I write it
Speaker 1: and she can be aldeane and she can sing the song.
Speaker 1: Oh I would I would like that. Yeah, Okay, it
Speaker 1: makes me nervous. He wants me to write about my relationship,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, it's so new. I don't we're gonna
Speaker 1: write about your relationship. Oh, we're gonna write about you,
Speaker 1: you and your voice, So give us some time. How
Speaker 1: does she record it? Though? She recordings with you? That
Speaker 1: means she knows we figure it out. We know people people,
Speaker 1: so we will. We will write you a song, Abby,
Speaker 1: but you record it and then we'll Okay, we'll put
Speaker 1: it out and see how it does. So Abby has
Speaker 1: no say in it though, right, Like if the songs,
Speaker 1: the song and whatever it is, she's gonna record it.
Speaker 1: You're correct, she has no say, right, ok So we're
Speaker 1: gonna write it, Abby, you're gonna record it? Deal? Okay?
Speaker 1: Is it gonna be like raging idiot style home? Like
Speaker 1: making fun of me? Abby? Would we do that? Abby?
Speaker 1: Where we're going to be serious songwriters and write you something.
Speaker 1: Our goal is to write you something serious that could
Speaker 1: actually be a hit. Correct, Okay, yeah, I trust you,
Speaker 1: Lunchbox your thoughts. Guys, you are doing everything for her.
Speaker 1: You got to let her learn on her own. When
Speaker 1: Jason Aldeen was starting, you didn't have songwriters writing songs
Speaker 1: for him. He had to earn that. She has done nothing.
Speaker 1: You guys are doing this. You got to teach her
Speaker 1: that she has to work for it. If you do
Speaker 1: everything for her, what does that teach her? Like Eddie,
Speaker 1: if you did your kids homework, does that teach him anything? No? No,
Speaker 1: you're right, Like, what are you guys doing what? I
Speaker 1: admitted I'm not a songwriter, but it okay, So don't
Speaker 1: do music. I said, I'm a singer, but there are
Speaker 1: a lot of people who aren't. Okay, So Jason Aldeen's
Speaker 1: first ever number one song is why he didn't write it?
Speaker 1: By Rodney Clawson, Vicki mcgeehey, and big and rich as
Speaker 1: John Rich. Look at that. We're going to be big
Speaker 1: and riches John Rich. Ye, Well, yeah, we're gonna write it. Abby,
Speaker 1: give us some time. We'll write it, we record it,
Speaker 1: we'll debut it around the show. Let's go. I love this.
Speaker 1: I'm excited, Abby Leady Anderson, Right, that's our forming name
Speaker 1: pen to Paper. I'll see you guys tomorrow. I go
Speaker 1: home right now. We just started the show. Prepare your
Speaker 1: boyfriend for this song you just said it was. We
Speaker 1: haven't decide decided. We haven't sent in a room but
Speaker 1: Penda paper yet. Okay, all right Abby, we'll be in touch. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: all right, good. It's the best bits of the week
Speaker 1: with Morgan. Number two voy does LaunchBox have some crazy
Speaker 1: stuff happening in his neighborhood. He confronted another neighbor. Okay,
Speaker 1: this is not the same one that had the Christmas
Speaker 1: light situation, but he confronted one about a broken down car.
Speaker 1: He went to their door, knocked on it, said some words. Yes,
Speaker 1: that really happened. And this is number five, number five.
Speaker 1: Yesterday we talked about lunchboxes. Neighbor. It's not the Christmas lights. Guy,
Speaker 1: he has a car that's been broken down, sitting in
Speaker 1: front of your house for over two months, easily over
Speaker 1: two months, just sitting there, had mood. I mean, there's dust.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't even think the door has been open,
Speaker 1: just sitting And if it wasn't right in front of
Speaker 1: your house, would you care? Wouldn't care? Wouldn't care. It's
Speaker 1: street parking though, that's the problem. And so with kids
Speaker 1: it's hard to park across the street. And oh look
Speaker 1: for cars. It's just really a hassle. Okay, I get it,
Speaker 1: do you? Yeah? Sure, I get it. With a broken
Speaker 1: out card to sitting in front of the house all
Speaker 1: the time and they're probably isn't a law that says
Speaker 1: this person gets this spot on the street right right.
Speaker 1: There's no like, oh, this is your spot, this is
Speaker 1: your spot, nothing like that. All right, So we decided
Speaker 1: two verses one Eddie and I decided Lunchbox should go
Speaker 1: and confront the guy and record it for the record.
Speaker 1: I did not want the stabbingcause I don't want any
Speaker 1: He didn't shot. It's all good, good happen to the neighbor.
Speaker 1: Yet I shot the neighbor. It takes time at escalate
Speaker 1: over time. Okay, here is the first clip of Lunchbox
Speaker 1: walking over to the neighbor's house. All right, how's it going? Man? Back,
Speaker 1: you're in your car, But they've been down there for
Speaker 1: well over a month man, And um, is there any
Speaker 1: way we can push it across the street? Oh? First
Speaker 1: of all, for two months turned into one You play again.
Speaker 1: All right, how's it going? Man? Sold back? You're in
Speaker 1: your car, but they've been down there for oh well
Speaker 1: over a month man, And um, is there any way
Speaker 1: we can push it across the street? There's a good plan?
Speaker 1: Week is good plan that? I think that's the angle
Speaker 1: to go. You found a way to not just put
Speaker 1: it on him. That's not how I remember it going scared. No, no,
Speaker 1: no one's scared one scared of tiny. And also he
Speaker 1: didn't let the guy say hello or anything. Man, right
Speaker 1: at it here. Here's the thing. You guys always tell
Speaker 1: me to work on my approach. So I was trying to,
Speaker 1: like say in a calm manner instead of being confrontational.
Speaker 1: So maybe that's where the stutter comes in. Like I'm
Speaker 1: trying to be like because I want to be like, yo,
Speaker 1: your car has been but I'm trying to be like,
Speaker 1: how do I say this about him? Getting really mad
Speaker 1: in your head? How did that go? I was like, dude,
Speaker 1: get the car in front of my house, like you're
Speaker 1: killing me? Said, is there any okay? Maybe maybe should
Speaker 1: playing this audio? Okay, here is how it ends. If
Speaker 1: we could just move it there, that means you be
Speaker 1: willing to help me move. Oh absolutely, man, we don't know.
Speaker 1: Sorry about no, no, no no. Like I said, it
Speaker 1: ain't a big deal and I don't need it done
Speaker 1: to night. It's just, you know, with kids, it's just
Speaker 1: hard moving. Like when I park across the street, it's
Speaker 1: just hard with them trying to run out of the
Speaker 1: road and all that. So yeah, I apologize. Hey, like
Speaker 1: I said it. They actually got stolen from right right
Speaker 1: here one point, and so I had to I was
Speaker 1: off my job for a period of time. I had
Speaker 1: to pay to get it back. And I don't want
Speaker 1: any community around in the evening tomorrow. Yeah I'll be
Speaker 1: there man, Okay, Yeah, I'm the one. Yeah, next house, man,
Speaker 1: I'll come knock on. Yeah, no problem. It's like it's
Speaker 1: so nice and oddly so is long. Yeah, they're like
Speaker 1: best buddies. Now I got a friend many Now it's
Speaker 1: thought you're good looking. Oh, it's thought, what you hang up?
Speaker 1: What are you all gonna do tonight? Well, he says,
Speaker 1: come knock on the door, and we're gonna move the car.
Speaker 1: I think as much as we're giving you crap, and
Speaker 1: the only reason we're giving you crap is because you present.
Speaker 1: I'm so macho no, I am, well, hold on, hold on,
Speaker 1: You're like, I'm gonna kick the door down and I'll
Speaker 1: make it happen. What you actually did is the right
Speaker 1: thing in honey, not vinegar. Yeah, you know, I don't
Speaker 1: know more flies to honey than vinegar. You gave him honey.
Speaker 1: You're sweet, you're kind guy, and he was not threatened
Speaker 1: by you at all. He wasn't starting in any way
Speaker 1: by you because you don't. He didn't. You weren't didn't
Speaker 1: sound tough, didn't look tough. So you and him are
Speaker 1: basically the same. Good for you. So yeah, that means
Speaker 1: tonight he's gonna knock on my door and we're gonna
Speaker 1: move that car. Let's do it. Let's move that car. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's all good, it's all good. Oh yeah, yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: sorry your car got up. He's my car. I did
Speaker 1: feel sympathetic because he did say he got his car
Speaker 1: stolen in his office job for a little bit, so
Speaker 1: he hadn't able to pay to get it fixed. Okay,
Speaker 1: I get it. But let's move the car so I
Speaker 1: will see you tonight. Knock on my door and let's
Speaker 1: move the car, all right, big daddy, you tell him? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I will hey, but you're getting it done and that's
Speaker 1: all that matters. Yeah, yeah, nice job. It's a victory
Speaker 1: for lunch Bob. It's the best bits of the week
Speaker 1: with Morgan. Number two. We got number four right here.
Speaker 1: Y'all had lots of things to say about this one
Speaker 1: on our social media, the grocery store situation where I
Speaker 1: am getting some free items, not of any of my doing,
Speaker 1: but potentially because someone likes me, as the show seemed
Speaker 1: to think that's the case. But you can listen and
Speaker 1: decide for yourself. Just know, okay that I am no thief.
Speaker 1: This is nothing that I plan to have happened or
Speaker 1: ever thought would happened to me. But you know what,
Speaker 1: as Mike and I said during the part one, if
Speaker 1: you get free items, like, are you really going to
Speaker 1: turn that down? Like, I mean, listen, we're all we're
Speaker 1: all dealing with some high prices right now. Okay, number four,
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna help Morgan here. Morgan, what's happening
Speaker 1: at the grocery store? Well, so I go to this
Speaker 1: place like regularly, probably once a week, and this guy
Speaker 1: has picked up on it, I guess, and so every
Speaker 1: time I go in, one of the workers at the
Speaker 1: grocery store gives me a free item. Sometimes it's a
Speaker 1: protein bar, sometimes it's a chocolate cake, othertimes it's candy.
Speaker 1: I've gotten three free items so far from this guy,
Speaker 1: chocolate cakes, not like the rest. No, you got a
Speaker 1: chocolate cake. Yeah, like it was a life is a
Speaker 1: freezer section thing that you pop in the oven or whatever,
Speaker 1: And he's like, this is my favorite, started a whole
Speaker 1: conversation about it, and then made sure he gave it
Speaker 1: to me for free. Is he a manager? No, he's
Speaker 1: Also when I was standing in line to check out,
Speaker 1: he purposely came and switched the other guy out so
Speaker 1: that he would be there. Okay, yeah for sure. Until then.
Speaker 1: Up until then, I was like, maybe he does, Maybe
Speaker 1: he doesn't that he's in love with you. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean I feel like, are we Is he gonna lose
Speaker 1: his job? He can't be doing this. I think there's
Speaker 1: an important question. How old is this guy? I don't know.
Speaker 1: He wears hats often so I can't really tell on age,
Speaker 1: but he does look like he's probably in his thirties roughly.
Speaker 1: So he gives you free stuff, which strikes up conversation
Speaker 1: when you're going through the line. He has he ever
Speaker 1: at all flirted or made any sort of move. No,
Speaker 1: he's never like out or done that. He told me
Speaker 1: about his day and the hobby that he's gotten into,
Speaker 1: which was like an extensive conversation with a cashier person. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what was a hobby? Gardening? He was really excited to
Speaker 1: tell me about his gardening that he got into. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but that was unprompted. He was like, how's your day.
Speaker 1: I got into this and just wanted to talk to
Speaker 1: me while this. I have like five items to check out.
Speaker 1: Has he messaged you on Instagram and your general or
Speaker 1: anything not that I'm aware of. No, Okay, he's in
Speaker 1: love with you, right everybody for sure? Yeah? Do you
Speaker 1: still have a boyfriend? Yes? I do? Okay, Okay, has
Speaker 1: he seen him? Yes, he's been in the store with you,
Speaker 1: but like we'll buy things separately, so sometimes you won't
Speaker 1: see us together. And my boyfriend's like, it's fine, you
Speaker 1: can just buy my groceries next time. This is what's
Speaker 1: gonna happen. I like, how I think that'd be the
Speaker 1: same way. I'd be like, hey, just go through by yourself.
Speaker 1: Maybe we got another free cake today. What were you
Speaker 1: gonna say. Okay, So either he's giving the handing it
Speaker 1: out for free and like should it be? Or oh,
Speaker 1: he's super sweet and I mean he's covering the bill
Speaker 1: like he knows he gave away the chocolate cake and
Speaker 1: so he covers Like maybe they have they can do
Speaker 1: that where they pay the five dollars to make sure
Speaker 1: it's paid for it. Yeah, but both are love But
Speaker 1: I'm just saying sure. I just worry about if he's
Speaker 1: doing something shading, he's gonna end up getting fired because
Speaker 1: of Morgan. But we don't even know the guy. We
Speaker 1: don't even know the girl. Why are you worried about him? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Would you date this guy if you didn't have a boyfriend?
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I mean he's cute, but not
Speaker 1: really my type. Okay, so he must not be like
Speaker 1: a creepy stalker type. No, he doesn't act like that
Speaker 1: at all. So final question, if for some reason, you
Speaker 1: and your boyfriend break up, would you then consider the
Speaker 1: grocery store guy. I don't think so sweet though he
Speaker 1: gives you chocolate cake, he you were starting together, Like,
Speaker 1: how long can I let this go on for? Do
Speaker 1: I keep just letting him to give me free stuff.
Speaker 1: That's how what does Morgan say anything? I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't why would you say something you're getting free stuff?
Speaker 1: Because eventually it's gonna get awkward. Well, eventually he's gonna
Speaker 1: have to make some sort of move yes, and then
Speaker 1: that's when the free stuff stops. Whenever you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: I have a boyfriend, and that's when his heartbreaks and
Speaker 1: he has to goes through depression, that's when all that
Speaker 1: stuff happens and hurt her car. That's gonna help naturally though, right, Um,
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen naturally the whole process. At some point
Speaker 1: he's gonna be like, all right, I'm just gonna do it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you want to go on a day with me? And
Speaker 1: she's gonna say no. He's obsessing about it every night. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and not like he's gonna stab you kind of way,
Speaker 1: but he's like, oh, I really would. We'll like to
Speaker 1: work up the courage. We don't know that, but he
Speaker 1: probably if I were. He can't find you on Instagram,
Speaker 1: it's well, I guess you don't post your boyfriend on Instagram?
Speaker 1: Really I don't. And I Well, what's crazy though, is
Speaker 1: I also don't go in there like dolled up. I'm
Speaker 1: like going in after I worked out, Like sometimes I
Speaker 1: go in there without makeup. I don't know that this
Speaker 1: man actually knows who or anything about me, because I
Speaker 1: go in there so different every time. Like sometimes I've
Speaker 1: walked in there with full makeup and he's never talked
Speaker 1: to me. So I don't know. My advice keep accepting
Speaker 1: the free stuff, but just no, one day it's gonna
Speaker 1: get awkward and he's like hey, and I would just
Speaker 1: be prepared and be like, oh, I'd have some nice
Speaker 1: answer to let him down easy, Okay. Can I just
Speaker 1: be like, you know, I'm sorry, I have a boyfriend.
Speaker 1: You're super sweet, though, I like, yeah, that's a tough one. Um.
Speaker 1: I would probably say like, hey, buddy, thanks for the
Speaker 1: free stuff, and maybe there's a chance later if you
Speaker 1: can give me a free stuff. Oh wow, but right
Speaker 1: now I have a boyfriend. But yeah, it's good. It's
Speaker 1: gonna get awkward. You can make it awkward earlier by going, hey,
Speaker 1: I can't take that stuff because I have a boyfriend,
Speaker 1: and then he goes, I'll just give it to you
Speaker 1: because it's part of the art sale today. I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna do that. I can't. I'm so bad about being awkward.
Speaker 1: It's but I'm not doing that. Okay, predictions. This is
Speaker 1: how we're gonna wrap this up. A prediction game. The
Speaker 1: next time Morgan goes in, if he gives her something,
Speaker 1: what will it be? Oh, everybody want to Let everyone
Speaker 1: put a dollar in sure and if somebody gets it right.
Speaker 1: We got to be specific though, right, like a specific item. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'll go ahead to let us. Okay, you've lost Hey,
Speaker 1: you don't know amy box of cereal. Oh it's good, Eddie,
Speaker 1: um paper products. Not just with let's go with paper towels. Okay,
Speaker 1: too big lunchbox. It's easy, guys. It's a bell pepper.
Speaker 1: She likes green bell peppers. Guards from his own garden.
Speaker 1: That's so good. Okay, let us know next time you
Speaker 1: go in, hi will and we'll check back up. Well,
Speaker 1: and I'll click my cash when you get the head
Speaker 1: to let us though, let us head to let us.
Speaker 1: It's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two.
Speaker 1: Eddie definitely brought something controversial. I mean we're just, you know,
Speaker 1: talking about all the different topics causing some drama on
Speaker 1: the show this week. But Eddie he is telling us
Speaker 1: that he is teaching his kids something when he goes
Speaker 1: to restaurants, and boy, did myself Bobby Amy have a
Speaker 1: lot to say about it. Lunchbox agreed with him. So
Speaker 1: Lunchbox and Eddie were on one team that it was
Speaker 1: Bobby Amy and myself and we are just absolutely baffled
Speaker 1: that this is something that's happened. And you know, maybe
Speaker 1: you do this too, or maybe you don't, or maybe
Speaker 1: you'll never admit it. I don't know, but listen to
Speaker 1: this moment right here. This is Eddie share in something
Speaker 1: he's teaching his kids that majority of us might find controversial.
Speaker 1: Number Three, I'm weird about sending food back if I'm
Speaker 1: in a restaurant. Having worked in a restaurant for years,
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're doing back there. I also
Speaker 1: don't want to insult the cook or the the waiter.
Speaker 1: But we were at a dinner and I ordered my
Speaker 1: steak medium also ordered a one. Man, If you give
Speaker 1: me a one, I don't care how bad the meat is,
Speaker 1: it makes it stay great. Yeah yeah, and it was
Speaker 1: red and I showed Eddie. I was like, hey, am
Speaker 1: I weird? Is this not done? And Eddie backed me up.
Speaker 1: And I sent it back and I hated doing that,
Speaker 1: felt terrible bad, but Eddie was like proud of It's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what you do. One on the board. So not
Speaker 1: my thing, but you're not afraid to do it. Man.
Speaker 1: This happened again recently. Yeah, recently. I took my fourteen
Speaker 1: year old son to a restaurant. He orders a shake
Speaker 1: and he and he drinks about half of it, and
Speaker 1: then he goes, I don't know, Dad, I just don't
Speaker 1: like the way this taste. It was a weird shake,
Speaker 1: not like your ordinary chocolate shake or whatever. He says,
Speaker 1: what do I do? I said, Hey, this is this
Speaker 1: is what it's all about. When you're not satisfied with
Speaker 1: something at a restaurant, you tell the waitress or the
Speaker 1: waiter and you say, hey, I didn't like this. Can
Speaker 1: I have a new one? But what do you mean satisfied?
Speaker 1: Like if you don't like how it tastes? Yeah, I say,
Speaker 1: you order French fries and you're like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I just don't like the French fries. They're not crunchy
Speaker 1: enough for whatever. Take him back and get tater tis well.
Speaker 1: So you're saying at a restaurant and this is what
Speaker 1: you're teaching your kids. Yeah that if you order something
Speaker 1: and not that it's messed up or there's a hair
Speaker 1: in it, right, if you just go I don't. This
Speaker 1: isn't really good for my taste buds. It doesn't fulfill
Speaker 1: then my need for a nice dinner. All that falls
Speaker 1: under the satisfactory category. Do you think that's okay? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean he wasn't satisfied with that shake. I don't
Speaker 1: know what he ordered. He ordered that shake, I get it,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't to his satisfactory whatever. He drank half
Speaker 1: of it, he sure did. The only way I would
Speaker 1: consider this being okay is if he had a drink
Speaker 1: or zip and it's like, oh, this is not what
Speaker 1: I thought it was, but not half of it. To
Speaker 1: his defense, he was trying to convince himself to drink
Speaker 1: more and be like, maybe I'll like it the more
Speaker 1: I drink, but then about halfway he's like, no, I
Speaker 1: just can't do it. So the question is, if you
Speaker 1: go to a restaurant and you don't like the food
Speaker 1: you got, can you send it back if you don't
Speaker 1: like it because the flavors are just not your thing
Speaker 1: or whatever you made a mistake in ordering something that
Speaker 1: you don't like right, Like, I can't order. I can't
Speaker 1: be debating between the chicken sandwich and the hamburger. And
Speaker 1: I get the chicken sandwiers, You're like, oh, this just
Speaker 1: is not hitting the spot, and go ask for a
Speaker 1: burger hitting the spots of funny yes, better. Example, you
Speaker 1: get a spicy chicken sandwich, right, and then you start
Speaker 1: eating it, You're like, oh, this is way more spicier
Speaker 1: than I thought. I can't even breathe. This is too spicy.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna change my order. Can I take my sandwich
Speaker 1: back when you get me one that's not so spicy?
Speaker 1: Same thing, I mean, it's too spicy. No, No, you
Speaker 1: can't do that. And he's teaching his kids to do this.
Speaker 1: You're going to grow up thinking that this is okay
Speaker 1: if you know what you're ordering, and then you get
Speaker 1: what you ordered, and you know and you got and
Speaker 1: every expectation has met and it's not undercooked or a
Speaker 1: hair or fingernail, like take all that stuff. If it's
Speaker 1: exactly what you ordered, you pay for it. Wow, Okay,
Speaker 1: that's what I said. I guess I was just raised differently.
Speaker 1: My dad was the king of this alright, he loved
Speaker 1: doing this around the room. I say that is not
Speaker 1: and that is not good. Okay, Amy, not good. I
Speaker 1: am embarrassed. Really, both of you all have secondary embarrassment. Lunchbox.
Speaker 1: I am team Eddie. You are paying for someone. If
Speaker 1: you are not satisfied with that item, you can ask
Speaker 1: for something different. It's like action has to be that
Speaker 1: they didn't do it what they had promised. If they
Speaker 1: give you what they told you they were going to
Speaker 1: give you, you can't be mad at what they gave you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you can say, you know what, it's not It doesn't
Speaker 1: taste like I thought it was gonna taste it, and
Speaker 1: so it doesn't hit the spot you go to am
Speaker 1: so funny to say for a reason you don't want
Speaker 1: to eat it. You go to a movie and halfway
Speaker 1: through you're like, man, I just don't like this movie.
Speaker 1: You can go back to the box office and say,
Speaker 1: you know what, out of your mind you cannot do that.
Speaker 1: Yes you can if you don't like the movie. Yes,
Speaker 1: and you go and say, man, I don't like that movie.
Speaker 1: I need my money back. And that is exactly what
Speaker 1: Eddie's kid did. And I am team Eddie. You don't
Speaker 1: like it, get something different, Morgan, No, he cannot send
Speaker 1: it back. I've been a server. I've been here before. No,
Speaker 1: what about the movie thing that Lunchbox is talking about. No, No, okay,
Speaker 1: here everybody was dissatisfied of things, and we'd all be
Speaker 1: returning stuff all the time. It's good. Do you buy
Speaker 1: a pair of jeans and you wear them for a
Speaker 1: week and be like, oh, I've been wearing these all
Speaker 1: week and they're just not working out. You can ever
Speaker 1: return them, absolutely if they don't fit. Okay, So here
Speaker 1: is the actual policy. Okay, when you're at the theater,
Speaker 1: a ticket maybe refunded. Boom of the thirty minutes after
Speaker 1: the film as started. That's not half a milkshake. Not half,
Speaker 1: that's half a milksha that's right. It's like a third
Speaker 1: than a third. Yeah, it's like a quarter of the movie.
Speaker 1: Fourth of the milkshake. Okay. You know Lunchox is gonna
Speaker 1: watch the movie that for twenty nine minutes and then
Speaker 1: run out, real quick, run to the box. I don't
Speaker 1: think that's cool. Okay, So it's too late because we
Speaker 1: did it already in this But now you've learned, So
Speaker 1: should I tell him next time. Hey, I've changed my mind.
Speaker 1: Now do you don't want to change your mind? Because
Speaker 1: Bobby and well it's three against two. That's the only
Speaker 1: reason part I don't really want to listen to lunch Box. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but this is how you grew up. It is I
Speaker 1: was raised this way, but that doesn't mean that it
Speaker 1: was the right way. That's correct, So tell your son
Speaker 1: he should send things back if it doesn't meet the
Speaker 1: expectation that he was presented. Got it not just because
Speaker 1: it doesn't hit. It's the best bits of the week
Speaker 1: with Morgan. Number two, the moment everybody has been waiting
Speaker 1: for Amy singing with Ryan Herd, the duet that we
Speaker 1: have been hearing about and building up for weeks. She
Speaker 1: was talking about how she could sing Chasing after You,
Speaker 1: she could do Marin's part on the Ryan Heard Mary
Speaker 1: Moore song, and well, Ryan Heard came in with Maren
Speaker 1: and Hardy and they performed his new song pass It On.
Speaker 1: But more importantly, Amy sang Chasing after You with Ryan
Speaker 1: while Maren sat on her seat and watched the whole
Speaker 1: thing happen. It was just a glorious moment in so
Speaker 1: many ways. In one that you know it was cool
Speaker 1: to be a part of. And there's lots of photos
Speaker 1: and stuff at Bobby Bones dot com or on our
Speaker 1: Instagram at Bobby Bones Show, so make sure you check
Speaker 1: those out. Number two, the Friday Morning Conversation with Brian
Speaker 1: heard Well, it's Ryan and a lot of well friends
Speaker 1: and wife. But Ryan, good to see you, buddy. Hey,
Speaker 1: m so introving. Introduce everyone here on the stage. Obviously,
Speaker 1: this is the my beautiful wife, Marion Morris, who I
Speaker 1: got to work with last year doing Chasing after You
Speaker 1: and was a big part of putting my album out
Speaker 1: and our second single I got to write with Maren
Speaker 1: and our friend Hardy right here. It's called pass it On.
Speaker 1: So really thrilled to a I don't know, get to
Speaker 1: work with these We've been writing songs together for a
Speaker 1: lot of years, so it's pretty fun to have a
Speaker 1: single on the radio with them. Um So, Ryan, let's
Speaker 1: talk about new music for a second because it's out
Speaker 1: and I assume, since again you have Hardy and Maren here,
Speaker 1: did you guys all write this song together? Yeah, we
Speaker 1: wrote it with our friend Jordan Schmidt, and I think
Speaker 1: originally pass it On was an idea for Maren's album
Speaker 1: which just came out, and then halfway through the writing
Speaker 1: the song, Marion said, I don't think this is a
Speaker 1: song for me to sing, and I've passed it on.
Speaker 1: So then Hardy jumped in the vocal booth and he
Speaker 1: sang a version of it, and then it fell to
Speaker 1: the third artist in the room, which is me, and
Speaker 1: now it's on the radio. So what a story. So
Speaker 1: that happened. So you guys were in a room to
Speaker 1: write for Marin. Was that kind of hearty? I'll ask
Speaker 1: you this was that the goal? At first? I'm not
Speaker 1: really sure. I don't think we went in with any intention.
Speaker 1: I guess, but yeah, I don't know. I mean maybe
Speaker 1: one of you guys could answer that better than me,
Speaker 1: But I think we were honestly just in the room
Speaker 1: to write a great song that day. Yeah, we're always
Speaker 1: sort of playing chicken because the three of us are artists,
Speaker 1: and then Jordan is just there and helping us out.
Speaker 1: We're like, who will this fall to? And I feel
Speaker 1: like it was. It was an idea we brought in
Speaker 1: and we were saving for our rite with Hardy, but
Speaker 1: then he was singing most of the day and I
Speaker 1: was just like, I feel like a guy. I hear
Speaker 1: a guy on this and then um, yeah, Ryan knocked
Speaker 1: it out of the park for this record. Does the
Speaker 1: opposite ever happen? Ryan, We're instead of someone going, hey,
Speaker 1: this is not for me, is every get a room?
Speaker 1: We're writing for somebody else and goes No, I like
Speaker 1: this song so much, I now want it. I do
Speaker 1: that all the time. I'm sure party does too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's got to be pretty weird for me to like
Speaker 1: put like grab it right away. Otherwise I like to
Speaker 1: pitch him and see kind of get some reactions. But
Speaker 1: but uh, but yeah, this one was I don't know
Speaker 1: when you're putting an album together, I've only done it
Speaker 1: one time, but you always think about like how do
Speaker 1: you want to set a tone? And I think just
Speaker 1: having something unabashedly positive was a really cool way to
Speaker 1: kick off my album. And then when we had to
Speaker 1: pick a second single, this is the one that our
Speaker 1: record company was really excited about. So I'm really just
Speaker 1: thrilled that I get to have both of these two
Speaker 1: and studio. It's such a massive treat for me and
Speaker 1: for us. Well, let's hear the song Ryan heard, Marion
Speaker 1: Morris and Hearty Here to Do pass it on. If
Speaker 1: you got a little smile in your pocket, or maybe
Speaker 1: just a couple of coins, If you got a little
Speaker 1: weight in your wall in a right direction to point
Speaker 1: some good advice or good vibes or a little positivity. Yeah,
Speaker 1: if you got a full cup and split it on
Speaker 1: up like somebody dead before me, pass it on, Pass
Speaker 1: it on, Pass it on to someone else. What good
Speaker 1: is you dollar or you love or your bottle? If
Speaker 1: you keep it out to yourself, there's enough to go around.
Speaker 1: So send it on down because you can't take it
Speaker 1: with you when you're gone. Pass it on. Pass it on. Oh,
Speaker 1: come on, a great job. Ryan heard Marion Morris and
Speaker 1: Hardy all here doing pass it on. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: a great song. And it's also like a you're right,
Speaker 1: it's like a good feeling song. I hope, so, man,
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a lot of a lot of I
Speaker 1: think it's just a great song for to hear on
Speaker 1: the radio. Man, we're really proud of it. There's a
Speaker 1: reason we wanted to start our album with it, and
Speaker 1: I'm really just again thrilled to have these two in
Speaker 1: the studio with me supporting, just because you know, it's
Speaker 1: fun to do this with your friends, do you, Guys
Speaker 1: and Mary, I'll ask you this, do you feel like
Speaker 1: since you wrote it, you're more invested and it's easier
Speaker 1: to sing on it, like it makes more sense. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is my first Ryan Heard single, come on, So
Speaker 1: I feel really special marrying things on almost every song
Speaker 1: that I put out, So it's that's it's easy to
Speaker 1: and also chasing after you, so it's I don't know,
Speaker 1: she's my safety blanket, I think. And Marin's record just
Speaker 1: came out, and your record has been out since the
Speaker 1: late last year. But and I'm not asking this anytime soon,
Speaker 1: but back in the day, George and Tammy, back in
Speaker 1: the you know, it was a thing where you would
Speaker 1: the couples would do an entire album. Has that ever
Speaker 1: been talked about in your house like it's a soul album?
Speaker 1: Maybe yes, maybe just briefly because it's it's fun to
Speaker 1: even like a five song EP. It's once we get
Speaker 1: through the Marin record, we can talk more about what
Speaker 1: we're doing next. But I feel like we're so like
Speaker 1: just coming out of that tunnel. So, I mean, I
Speaker 1: love all the duets so like, I think one of
Speaker 1: my favorite songs is like the Loretta Conway Twitty. You're
Speaker 1: the reason our kids are ugly like but that is
Speaker 1: my favorite thing about country music. Couples like our duets
Speaker 1: and Hardy, who has been on every single duet and
Speaker 1: country the last five years. Congratulations buddy, even killing it.
Speaker 1: It's like, if there's a song Hardy's on it. Now.
Speaker 1: We got to vote for a Hardy Songwriter of the
Speaker 1: Year at the ACMs this year, so I mean, congrats
Speaker 1: to you. Let's thank you man. We have the ACM
Speaker 1: Songwriter of the Year on this song, which is pretty yeah, awesome. Well,

Speaker 1: so that makes me nervous. So this is what's happened
Speaker 1: a long time. I know it's coming, but just helped
Speaker 1: fill me in a long time ago. Amy said, MAT
Speaker 1: think I actually sing the Marian part pretty good. And
Speaker 1: chasing after You, I said, I sing along in my
Speaker 1: car with Ryan, but I'm not in the marr and
Speaker 1: we all have no I heard you do it. I
Speaker 1: mean you saying great, thanks Marin. It's really low. It's
Speaker 1: a low part of it. Sure, but I've never ever
Speaker 1: done this with anybody else except Marin. Makes me even
Speaker 1: now now now, I'm way nervous and I don't especially
Speaker 1: with Marin here. I need it to people to know
Speaker 1: I'm not trying. Do you do the like Marion? Uh listen, listen? Yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: what if we what if Marin sat in your seat?

Speaker 1: like I am definitely not Marin. This is like just fun.
Speaker 1: This is like a oh yeah, because you do something. Okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna do it next, all right, yes, hold on, Okay,
Speaker 1: we're rambled. We didn't know at the time when this
Speaker 1: was suggested by you, Amy, that Marin was going to
Speaker 1: be here to watch that totally different story now, yeah,
Speaker 1: but this is all your idea. Yeah yeah, well, I
Speaker 1: mean I feel like over the years, what like we've
Speaker 1: been doing this sixteen years or something, I've sang with
Speaker 1: some like I've had the opportunity to just have fun
Speaker 1: with it, and this is a song that I just love,

Speaker 1: I am because if what she does eyes once she's
Speaker 1: not on, which it is hard for us to be

Speaker 1: have weeks to talk about this and relive it. Okay,
Speaker 1: there they are the crude Thank you guys. It's the
Speaker 1: best bits of the week with Morgan number two and
Speaker 1: coming in hauntingly. Is that even a word. I don't
Speaker 1: know if that's a word, but you know what, it's
Speaker 1: going to be a word right now, hauntingly At number one,
Speaker 1: the haunted crying boy doll drama. Listen, somebody was supposed
Speaker 1: to take it home for a week, live with it.
Speaker 1: See what happens, and you know they did not want to,
Speaker 1: so they paid someone else on the show to do it.
Speaker 1: And you know, when money gets involved, somebody on the
Speaker 1: show is going to get in on the action. And
Speaker 1: that is definitely what happened. So make sure you catch
Speaker 1: up on this whole situation with the haunted doll, because
Speaker 1: I have a feeling we're going to be having some
Speaker 1: stories over the next week about this whole situation. So
Speaker 1: here it is right now. Number one. Yesterday we were
Speaker 1: talking about a ventroloquist doll, and this doll supposedly haunted.
Speaker 1: And I said, who believes that a doll could be haunted?
Speaker 1: And both Amy and Eddie said, I don't think a
Speaker 1: thing can be haunted. I said, great, I'm glad you
Speaker 1: said that, because what we have purchased is the Crying
Speaker 1: Boy doll that they claim is haunted. The Crying Boy
Speaker 1: was part of the collection of dolls. The owner of
Speaker 1: the doll said she swore she always felt strange and
Speaker 1: sad around him, like it brought I don't have time
Speaker 1: for that energy, she said. Sometimes his shoes would be
Speaker 1: off and she would never touch the doll's feet. Okay,
Speaker 1: so since you don't believe things are haunted, we're gonna
Speaker 1: play a game loser takes a doll home with them
Speaker 1: for a week. Cool. We actually will get the doll
Speaker 1: on Friday, like in hopefully, and then all next week
Speaker 1: you have the doll at home with you. My god.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna play twenty one questions and the loser
Speaker 1: takes the haunted doll home for a week. Okay, So
Speaker 1: what'll happen is I have a celebrity. I've shared it
Speaker 1: with Mike. He'll also service fact checker. You can ask
Speaker 1: yes or no questions, and if you decide that you
Speaker 1: want to guess the celebrity, buzz in with your name
Speaker 1: at any time. But once you guess and you miss it,
Speaker 1: you're gone. You lose. Okay, So you get it anytime
Speaker 1: buzz in and say I want to guess the celebrity
Speaker 1: for the win. Say your name as the buzzer. It's wrong,
Speaker 1: gets wrong, you lose. Yeah, so ready to go, Amy,
Speaker 1: You will go first a yes or no question. Have
Speaker 1: a celebrity in my head? Twenty one questions? Go? Is
Speaker 1: it a male? No, it's a woman, Eddie? Is this
Speaker 1: woman dead? Oh? Here we go? No is the dramatic pauses.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, no, the woman's not dead. Okay. Is she married? Mike?
Speaker 1: I think so, but Mike is serving as the fact checker,
Speaker 1: and he will tell me if she's married or not.
Speaker 1: She is married. Yes, we get twenty questions each. Right, No,
Speaker 1: we go until someone loses. It's just a game. It
Speaker 1: could be a hundred questions. Go ahead, Eddie, h married? Okay, Um,
Speaker 1: let's see is this person famous? Yeah? Obviously? No, not obviously.
Speaker 1: It could be like my cousin. It's never obvious. Does
Speaker 1: she have kids? No? No, no kids? Married, no kids?
Speaker 1: Is this a woman who's alive? Is she American? Here's
Speaker 1: trying to think, Yes, Yes she's American. I'm looking at
Speaker 1: Mike if I'm confused. Yes, she's American, American woman. Is
Speaker 1: she a singer? No? Female? Famous, not a singer? American? Married? Yeah? Married?
Speaker 1: No kids? Um? Is she an actress? No, Mike, we're
Speaker 1: gonna go with no, right, No, we'll say no. Not
Speaker 1: a singer, not an actresses, doesn't sing or act? And
Speaker 1: she's famous? She an influencer? TikToker? Never? No, not a TikToker?
Speaker 1: What does she knew? Bobby? Is she Caucasian? She is? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Is she in politics? No? Is she a comedian? Yes?
Speaker 1: Oh oh this is a tough I have a question.
Speaker 1: I don't want to ask it. She said no kids.
Speaker 1: Is it my turn? Yeah? You said no kids, no kids? Married?
Speaker 1: She's a comedian. Now you guys start to think you
Speaker 1: know who it is. I'm scared to know who it is.
Speaker 1: But I'm scared. Okay, is she a comedian that has
Speaker 1: also started movies? Let me ask Mike because I don't
Speaker 1: think so. But gosh, so, Mike, she's been in moot?
Speaker 1: What not known as an actress? But she's in in movies?
Speaker 1: Is it my turn? This is tough because I feel
Speaker 1: like I know who it is, but and I have
Speaker 1: one more question, but I don't want to ask it
Speaker 1: because I think that'll give amy the answer and follow
Speaker 1: a question with immediately yelling your name. You have to
Speaker 1: pause for at least three seconds. Okay, so you don't
Speaker 1: just go get the answer and yell your name. Okay,
Speaker 1: I have a question, but she can jump in, can't
Speaker 1: it is she? Can she be a raunchy comedian. That's
Speaker 1: not gonna help me? Yes? No? No? Oh, well that
Speaker 1: kind of goes me off. I wish Eddie would have
Speaker 1: guessed and missed it. That would been hilarious. Okay, Okay?
Speaker 1: Has mail comedian married? No kids? She's been in some movies?
Speaker 1: What about TV? Has she done TV shows? Yes? Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: what are you thinking about now? The thing that's confusing
Speaker 1: when you ask if somebody's something it's not what they're
Speaker 1: known most for, but they've probably done it. What was
Speaker 1: their springboard? Like? Maybe they've done other things, but what
Speaker 1: did it start with? Like your media? You wouldn't say
Speaker 1: I'm an author. But I've written a couple but right
Speaker 1: same here. But you said yes to comedian though, yes,
Speaker 1: and yes to she's TV show show. Okay, so it
Speaker 1: started with comedy Eddie, it's over to you. It's me okay,
Speaker 1: um man? Was she was? She a part of the
Speaker 1: oscars this year? I didn't watch. All I know is
Speaker 1: somebody slap somebody. Yeah, but you know who wasn't? Okay? Good?
Speaker 1: Not good? I meant it doesn't have kids. Every comedian
Speaker 1: I'm thinking of has a child. It must not be
Speaker 1: that one of the comedians you're thinking. We're playing twenty
Speaker 1: one questions. They're trying to identify the celebrity. Does you

Speaker 1: Some of them have been vocal about it lately. That's
Speaker 1: why I don't I don't know. I don't know that
Speaker 1: it's been in magazines. I don't know. That's a question though, right,
Speaker 1: and they said they wanted to be real about it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know that that's the answer. I don't know
Speaker 1: that answer. Okay, does she have her own TV show?
Speaker 1: M does she? Or hash she ever? Oo oo oo,
Speaker 1: let's go with hash she ever? What's Mike? I believe
Speaker 1: she's had her own TV show? Yes, Okay, keep a
Speaker 1: bunch of actors like you, guys, acting show or talk show?
Speaker 1: He just had TV show? I know. Now I'm asking.
Speaker 1: You have to ask yes or no talk show? Yes
Speaker 1: or no talk show? Yes? That helps kind of. I
Speaker 1: can't do it, guys. You have to buzz in with
Speaker 1: you'rn have a big question here and I can't ask it.
Speaker 1: You have to buzz in with your name if you
Speaker 1: want to know the answer. But we're getting down the
Speaker 1: nitty gritty, and you know, you can ask a question
Speaker 1: and then once he answers, you have three seconds to
Speaker 1: yell your name to answer. You have to wait three seconds. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so you don't have to wait. You can jump in immediately. Yes, okay,
Speaker 1: has she ever done any voice work? That's interesting? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Voice work? Voice work? Oh god, Yeah, you shouldn't have
Speaker 1: asked it. You can't give me own, correct, Amy, get
Speaker 1: ready to have a briefe crime boy in your house
Speaker 1: for one week? Why did you you knew he was
Speaker 1: going to jump in? I know, but I was If
Speaker 1: I guessed Ellen and I was wrong, the same risks
Speaker 1: the same with him, Amy, You had three you had
Speaker 1: no seconds. You could have jumped right in. Wow, Now
Speaker 1: she takes the crime boy home? If what like, what
Speaker 1: if I don't get sleep that week? You might not.
Speaker 1: That's going to be because you've done it to yourself.
Speaker 1: You might not believe that things are haunted. I don't
Speaker 1: think it's haunted. You believe. I don't want the even
Speaker 1: the potential of hauntedness. But what's the worst, just the shoes?
Speaker 1: What's the worst? That this crime baby an easy and sad?
Speaker 1: Yet Amy will take a haunted doll home with her
Speaker 1: for a week. It must be in the confines of
Speaker 1: your house. No garage, children, Yeah, but you don't believe
Speaker 1: in it? Okay, it can be in my garage. No
Speaker 1: not your garage in the house. Amy comes in wearing
Speaker 1: all black. Next week, she cries every segment similar to
Speaker 1: the other seasons of the sad seasons. That's it, not
Speaker 1: always different seasons of live. Do not bring it in
Speaker 1: the studio. Don't bring it with you? Why because I
Speaker 1: don't want that. Okay, Amy will take home the Crying
Speaker 1: Boy doll U and have it for next week. You lost,
Speaker 1: Amy has to take a haunted doll home with her.
Speaker 1: She lost a game. For a week, it's supposed to
Speaker 1: live at her house. She reached out to her past or.
Speaker 1: The pastor's like, hey, we believe in Jesus Christ, and
Speaker 1: this is not bigger than Jesus Christ, he said, but
Speaker 1: you do have kids and I can freak him out,
Speaker 1: which tore Amy a little bit. Yeah. Then Lunchbox said,
Speaker 1: I'll take the doll home, and he held up a number.
Speaker 1: So if Amy pays him this number, which hurts, by
Speaker 1: the way, like I don't want to pay this money,
Speaker 1: he'll take the doll home. So I do need your
Speaker 1: decision right now, right now. Hit me with it. Okay, Ay,
Speaker 1: there is the haunted doll. It is called the Crying Boy.
Speaker 1: Are you taking the doll home for a week or
Speaker 1: are you? I like that drum roll? That's yeah, it's
Speaker 1: a constant one. I mean. The thing is like I'm
Speaker 1: here like as my job, like I get paid to
Speaker 1: be here, like I'm getting paid right now, and then
Speaker 1: I'm about to pay the money that I'm making. You
Speaker 1: are you? Wow? Is that the announcement you are paying
Speaker 1: the money? It just feels weird, like who else at
Speaker 1: their job has to like make money and then spend it, right,
Speaker 1: to spend all the time for listeners for games? I know,
Speaker 1: I know this is just as a being trying Its
Speaker 1: like trying to be a responsible parent. There is I
Speaker 1: cannot bring the haunted doll into my home, and I
Speaker 1: guess why I Am going to be paying Lunchbox a
Speaker 1: stupid amount of money to avoid it. WHOA, I don't
Speaker 1: want the doll, but I want money. I need to
Speaker 1: see a handshake, because once the hand shake is now outligated,
Speaker 1: always spit in his hand. I didn't, okay, handshake is
Speaker 1: on breaking news, like honestly, I have no more breaking
Speaker 1: new breaking box. That's now his doll the dolls here today?
Speaker 1: Oh no stars now, Oh I'm so glad this deal
Speaker 1: got done today because I can't. I just could potentially
Speaker 1: I could hide it from my son, but if you
Speaker 1: were to find out, it could just cause issues. Well
Speaker 1: we're moving from you to lunchbox now, okay, good, but
Speaker 1: well the lunchbox? Oh the dollar is here? Where is
Speaker 1: it right now? Mike? It's outside. We're not bringing in
