Speaker 1: It's the Best Bit of the Week with Morgan two.
Speaker 2: She's breaking down the top seven segments from the Bobby
Speaker 2: Bones Show this week.
Speaker 3: Well, welcome to the Best Bits Part two. You're catching
Speaker 3: up on the Bobby Bone Show. If you're here, make
Speaker 3: sure you check out Part one Part three this weekend.
Speaker 3: It is with Eddie and we always have some really
Speaker 3: fun off the wall conversations in part one, and we
Speaker 3: answer listener questions in part two. And now that I've
Speaker 3: told you that, it's time to get into the top
Speaker 3: seven segments from the show this week, let's do it.
Speaker 4: The show was asked what does your perfect.
Speaker 5: Day look like?
Speaker 3: So everyone was thinking and everyone had very different variations
Speaker 3: of what their perfect day would look like. So I
Speaker 3: inspire you to also think about your very perfect day.
Speaker 3: I know mine would include a day in the mountains
Speaker 3: with no work to do and lots of yummy food
Speaker 3: and my animals by my side as well as my fiance.
Speaker 4: So it's pretty simple.
Speaker 3: But maybe your perfect day will encourage you to go and.
Speaker 4: Take it somewhere soon.
Speaker 5: Number seven it's talking to Blake Shelton about what would
Speaker 5: be a realistic perfect day for him.
Speaker 6: Perfect day is in Oklahoma, at the ranch when is
Speaker 6: there and the boys, and the boys are outside doing things.
Speaker 6: You know, it makes me happy to see them just
Speaker 6: out messing around. It is simple and that sounds It's
Speaker 6: just makes me happy. And it's not hot. I'll take
Speaker 6: five degrees over one hundred degrees.
Speaker 5: So a realistic perfect day in your mind. So I'll
Speaker 5: go first. I think we'd be in Fatteville. It'd be
Speaker 5: a Saturday. It'd be a three pm Razorback game, so
Speaker 5: at our house in Fatteville. I don't want the eleven
Speaker 5: o'clock game. That sucks. I don't want the night game
Speaker 5: because I hate waiting all day because I'm just looking
Speaker 5: forward to the night game all day. So like a
Speaker 5: three pm game, wake up. I like to wake up
Speaker 5: and then go back to sleep. I like to wake up,
Speaker 5: eat and fall back asleep for a little bit. So
Speaker 5: I would do that and then I watch games and
Speaker 5: then walk over to the tailgate like an hour and
Speaker 5: a half before the games go. We win, we beat
Speaker 5: the crap out of Ole mess or LSU, and then
Speaker 5: we go to a nice dinner after the game at
Speaker 5: like eight pm. The weather it's one of those where
Speaker 5: it's not cold. It's like fifty eight. It's long sleeves,
Speaker 5: but it never is super cold. So we get that
Speaker 5: big win afternoon game in Fayetteville football season. That's my
Speaker 5: perfect day. And Oklahoma's off that week, so Caitlyn's let
Speaker 5: her to watch on her phone. Oh, she's totally focused
Speaker 5: on Arkansas winning the game. And so that would be
Speaker 5: my perfect day that I really could have. Amy.
Speaker 4: I would wake up in Colorado, probably a summer morning,
Speaker 4: at my sister's house, and we would have coffee on
Speaker 4: her back deck by the river, and then later we
Speaker 4: would go on a hike, and then we would head
Speaker 4: over to the spa and get some massages, and then
Speaker 4: maybe we sit by her fire and read a little bit.
Speaker 4: And then at some point, either she's cooking because she's
Speaker 4: an amazing cook, or we just order thy food or
Speaker 4: something and we eat in and then that's when the
Speaker 4: rest of the family shows up, like my kids, her
Speaker 4: kids and everybody. They always have tons of people sitting
Speaker 4: around their dining room table, like you have to pull
Speaker 4: up chairs and squeeze everybody in, and I love that feeling.
Speaker 4: And maybe after that we curl up and watch a movie.
Speaker 5: Could you make that day happen? Yeah?
Speaker 4: We could do that, And I.
Speaker 5: Feel like I could do most of mine except getting
Speaker 5: the win. Yeah right, that's what the last few year
Speaker 5: Arkansas football. Sure, and that's like I can make all
Speaker 5: the rest of that happen. I just can't. I can't
Speaker 5: guarantee we get a win overall, miss or Lsu. You know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, mine doesn't have any sports.
Speaker 5: Yeah, got mountains though, got mountains, Eddie.
Speaker 1: Oh, mine's wonderful. I wake up about seven thirty eight o'clock,
Speaker 1: get my cup of coffee, watch the birds for a
Speaker 1: little bit at the bird feeder, and then I have
Speaker 1: an eleven o'clock tea time, So I've got to go right,
Speaker 1: So I go play golf, drink a couple of beers,
Speaker 1: great round. Then on the way home, I stop at
Speaker 1: the grocery store, pick up some meat because I'm about
Speaker 1: to turn the smoker on. Pick up some more beer,
Speaker 1: smoke some meat, and then we have dinner, and after dinner,
Speaker 1: we play a board game with all the kids. And
Speaker 1: then I stay up late and watch a movie with
Speaker 1: my son because he loves watching movies.
Speaker 5: Could you make that happen?
Speaker 1: I could make that happen every Saturday lunchbox.
Speaker 5: Oh, it's easy.
Speaker 7: You wake up, have some breakfast tacos, absolutely the best
Speaker 7: breakfast on the planet. Have some breakfast tacos, head to
Speaker 7: the golf course with your buddies, and, like Eddie said,
Speaker 7: you have a couple of cold ones. Then you come
Speaker 7: home after that round of golf, and what.
Speaker 5: Do I love to do? Take a nap.
Speaker 7: Take an hour and a half, two hour nap, beautiful feeling,
Speaker 7: rejuvenated kids, come home, play for a little bit, and
Speaker 7: then what oh, time to go to a soccer game,
Speaker 7: because you know I love to play that co ed
Speaker 7: soccer at forty four years old. Get out there, score
Speaker 7: a couple of goals, come home, sit on the couch,
Speaker 7: have a night cap, and uh, tell the lady you
Speaker 7: ready to go upstairs?
Speaker 8: All right? Right right right?
Speaker 1: Forgot about that?
Speaker 5: Yeah, none of you guys had that in your thing.
Speaker 1: I got a weird one.
Speaker 7: None of you guys, like, none of you grown adults
Speaker 7: thought about that on a perfect day.
Speaker 1: Can I change mind?
Speaker 5: Like that's embarrassing. I just didn't really talk about it.
Speaker 5: Oh right, that's a perfect day. She didn't say that,
Speaker 5: like Shelton didn't say that. Yeah, it's weird too that
Speaker 5: he didn't say that on a perfect Yeah. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 5: I hope all you guys try to have that.
Speaker 4: Eddie just said he could do it every Saturday.
Speaker 1: I can do it. The golf's hard to convince my wife.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go play golf for four hours. That's tough.
Speaker 5: And then theirs, they didn't play with each other. They're
Speaker 5: at the same golf course and they're not playing with
Speaker 5: each other.
Speaker 1: We ignored each other.
Speaker 2: It's the best bits of the week.
Speaker 3: With Morgan number two, we talked about the current babysitter rates,
Speaker 3: which are per hour and while this number is super high,
Speaker 3: and it kind of shocked all of us. So now
Speaker 3: I'm curious parents out there, how much do you pay
Speaker 3: your babysitter by the hour or per child?
Speaker 5: Number six at me saying that babysitting rates are going
Speaker 5: up and up and up.
Speaker 8: Mm hmm.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're on the rise, So be aware because Bobby,
Speaker 4: you're about to have a baby.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but a baby baby okay.
Speaker 4: And yeah, you probably want to pay more even for
Speaker 4: care of a baby baby be oh man, I don't
Speaker 4: even know. Okay. So I started researching this after my
Speaker 4: friend told me that her nineteen year old daughter, who
Speaker 4: was also in college has been babysitting for extra money,
Speaker 4: and she charges thirty dollars an hour.
Speaker 1: That's crazy.
Speaker 5: Third, I don't know the rate, but you know what,
Speaker 5: I'll pay a million dollars an hour. That's how much
Speaker 5: I love my kid.
Speaker 1: Stop. Don't even say that, dude.
Speaker 5: I know obviously somebody uses that against me. I already said, yeah,
Speaker 5: it's thirty dollars an hour. I have no frame of
Speaker 5: reference here. Is that a lot for a babysitter.
Speaker 4: It seems like a lot to me, especially for one child.
Speaker 4: I think if you have multiple children, I could see
Speaker 4: that start to make sense.
Speaker 5: But sounds like what a school teacher she had paid
Speaker 5: after that many kids.
Speaker 4: Good point. What is their hourly rate?
Speaker 5: I don't know. I'll figure that out though I'll do
Speaker 5: eight hours a day. You do that hour going.
Speaker 4: I did some research as well, because I was like,
Speaker 4: is this for real? And according to urban Sitter it
Speaker 4: says that on average, it's about twenty six dollars an
Speaker 4: hour for one child and nearly thirty dollars for two children.
Speaker 4: Now depends on where you live in the country, because
Speaker 4: that's like California rates like San Francisco is sitting at
Speaker 4: like that twenty nine dollars an hour rate, and then
Speaker 4: down in San Antonio you can pay about eighteen dollars
Speaker 4: an hour.
Speaker 5: Also, it seems that if your babysitting as a job
Speaker 5: make a little extra money as a teenager or young adult,
Speaker 5: you probably shouldn't get paid as much as if you
Speaker 5: hire a babysitter that has CPR skills right, that has
Speaker 5: more like an education in children. For teachers, generally speaking,
Speaker 5: if you were to take a teacher salary and break
Speaker 5: it down, they would make twenty seven dollars twenty five
Speaker 5: cents per hour.
Speaker 4: See if I had was a teacher in Saul urban
Speaker 4: sitter posting this or whatever, I'd be like, huh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, take that to the principals.
Speaker 5: Secondly, I'd be like, why you're an urban sitter. Get
Speaker 5: back to work, Get back teaching the kids, Get off urbansitter.
Speaker 4: Well, I don't know. I mean, I only foundn urban
Speaker 4: sitter because I googled it after my curiosity got the
Speaker 4: best of me, And I guess I would just think like, oh,
Speaker 4: I'm a teacher with all these skills, Like I could
Speaker 4: be a nanny and maybe make more.
Speaker 5: Okay, because that feels different than a babysitter.
Speaker 8: True.
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, if you're a teacher looking to switch
Speaker 4: careers but still investment in children.
Speaker 5: How much does nanny make per hour?
Speaker 4: I mean I think that that varies.
Speaker 5: But but yeah, but you can look at.
Speaker 1: All in like all states, and then what like live
Speaker 1: in nannies right like nanny That.
Speaker 4: Would be very different.
Speaker 5: But that I'm confused by because I don't think you
Speaker 5: pay them as much. They just get to live there
Speaker 5: as part of their money.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then see, to me, that part would get
Speaker 4: confusing because like when are they off?
Speaker 5: Nanny's make between twenty nineteen to twenty six dollars an hour,
Speaker 5: what are they off? Good? Are they ever officially off?
Speaker 4: They may Actually there has to be something where it's like, yeah,
Speaker 4: you know, I can't. I'm not just like totally available
Speaker 4: all the time. But like, oh pairs, those are the
Speaker 4: nannies that come from other countries and they come to
Speaker 4: live with you, and they are more can be at
Speaker 4: times more affordable than hiring a domestic nanny.
Speaker 5: Oh no, I think about a no O pair except
Speaker 5: I saw it on a Netflix show once in a
Speaker 5: foreign count I would have thought O pair was a
Speaker 5: large pair like we have pairs, or you can have
Speaker 5: an O pair like I don't.
Speaker 4: Know that, yeah, O pair, like some people will bring
Speaker 4: in especially because someone like they want to come work
Speaker 4: in America. They may come from like let's just say
Speaker 4: they're in Germany or the thing.
Speaker 5: Are they legal, yes, okay, yeah, so you go.
Speaker 4: You would go through a hiring agency to find your
Speaker 4: O pair and everything would be done. I mean, I
Speaker 4: think just generally speaking, they.
Speaker 5: Chald that I don't know much about being right, but
Speaker 5: that's not right.
Speaker 4: No, No, it's still a good it's still a fair wage.
Speaker 4: I just think for some people because I remember when
Speaker 4: I was looking at things and just talking to people
Speaker 4: when we were about to become parents and we were
Speaker 4: both working full time, Like I was just curious, so
Speaker 4: I started doing research. And some people that's why they
Speaker 4: do it. They ran the numbers, they did the math,
Speaker 4: and O pair sounds super fancy and it is, but
Speaker 4: it would cost them less if they had someone come
Speaker 4: and live with them from another country. Because when you're
Speaker 4: coming from another country, you have nowhere to men, where
Speaker 4: to go, you have no life, you have no friends.
Speaker 4: They're more available.
Speaker 5: I kind of like that.
Speaker 8: I think there's kid yeah, surely is the kid.
Speaker 5: Babysitters for super babies.
Speaker 4: Yeah, babysitters for newborns, yeah, yes, I just think for
Speaker 4: parents sometimes it's really difficult.
Speaker 5: Million dollars an hour, million dollars an hour for a
Speaker 5: babysitter for a super baby.
Speaker 4: But yes, yeah, like if you wanted to go to dinner.
Speaker 5: Can you take super babies like on trips?
Speaker 4: That's up to you. I think that they are are
Speaker 4: they able to go on trips? So Eddie had super babies.
Speaker 4: I never gave births, so I never had a super baby.
Speaker 4: But I would think it's advised you wait till a
Speaker 4: certain point because they're so tiny and vulnerable, like you
Speaker 4: don't want to expose them to.
Speaker 9: So was I till sixth grade and I still did
Speaker 9: stuff you're tiny and vulnerable grot like way later.
Speaker 4: But I mean, like, are you going to put them
Speaker 4: on an airplane?
Speaker 9: Like?
Speaker 4: Are you mean?
Speaker 5: Can you go on with them?
Speaker 4: Right? I know, but they're so little and you're exposing
Speaker 4: their immune system to things, and maybe that's better. I
Speaker 4: don't know, Maybe it's good get them rolling in the dirt.
Speaker 5: But Eddie like a car ride.
Speaker 1: Is great because I mean, they love cars anyway.
Speaker 5: A car, you know.
Speaker 4: I think he's asking you about a car ride.
Speaker 1: You drive to Arkansas and take the baby with you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and they love the back seat. They're just back there
Speaker 1: kind of just shaking or whatever, like no big deal.
Speaker 1: But like flying, it's just a gamble.
Speaker 5: Like like gamble.
Speaker 1: Some babies are good with flying, some will cry the
Speaker 1: entire thing.
Speaker 5: But I think there's a difference than a baby and
Speaker 5: a super baby.
Speaker 1: There is, there is, And I don't remember traveling too
Speaker 1: much with a super baby.
Speaker 4: I think you want to be home.
Speaker 1: You're like nesting right, mainly because you're just scared. Dude,
Speaker 1: you don't you don't know, like you don't know what
Speaker 1: what you're doing with the.
Speaker 5: Baby, planning to get They give our baby so much adversity,
Speaker 5: like baby, I'm just born. That's tough. You ain't getting
Speaker 5: to walk over here, like I didn't grow up easy.
Speaker 5: I don't want to have some kid that grows up easy.
Speaker 1: That's interesting. My dad's motto was like, I don't want
Speaker 1: you to grow up the way I.
Speaker 5: Grew up, which was I want I want my baby
Speaker 5: to grow up how I grew up.
Speaker 4: Because it's not going to have that experience unless you
Speaker 4: build like a certain little offshoot of your house that's
Speaker 4: like small, and then they have to sleep on a
Speaker 4: couch and you don't give.
Speaker 5: Them sell your car, dude, it's like boy name suit,
Speaker 5: I just leave just to give the baby a harder
Speaker 5: life so they're stronger whenever. Yeah, I got a lot
Speaker 5: of stuff to deal with up here in the old brain.
Speaker 4: But I'm sure that is difficult for you to to
Speaker 4: figure out how you're going to do that, because you
Speaker 4: do live a drastically different life than how you grew up,
Speaker 4: and you probably struggle, like Eddie saying, some parents are
Speaker 4: like whatever, I'm gonna give my kid whatever they want
Speaker 4: because I never had it, And you have to decide
Speaker 4: who you're who you're going to be. I'm sure there's
Speaker 4: a middle ground.
Speaker 5: I don't want that, you can want it even harder
Speaker 5: on them.
Speaker 1: And you even have time after the baby's born, like
Speaker 1: you got time.
Speaker 5: No, it comes out day one, start like, hey, cut
Speaker 5: your own cords, Hey baby, do it yourself.
Speaker 8: You're hungry.
Speaker 5: Fears though, yep, yep, Somewhere in this house there's a
Speaker 5: bottle of something. Yeah, find it.
Speaker 4: You have a partner, though, and she she grew.
Speaker 5: Up you gonna want to do things healthy. She had
Speaker 5: a great family.
Speaker 4: Well, I think that's great that you have a partner
Speaker 4: that had some stability growing up, so she can offer
Speaker 4: that to your child.
Speaker 5: I was thinking, first five years of baby's life, nothing
Speaker 5: but manwich.
Speaker 1: Ooh man, that's good stuff. Though I love manwich.
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, there's gonna be some nutrient efficiencies, like at.
Speaker 5: Me manmage mountain dew just fine, that's pretty much all
Speaker 5: it was. Maybe an occasional blowy sandwich on white bread
Speaker 5: with mustard and sometimes no blowney, just mustard on the
Speaker 5: white bread.
Speaker 4: Okay, I mean technically first five years the baby could
Speaker 4: live off milk.
Speaker 5: Or manwich in mountain dew. That's uh oh thirty bucks
Speaker 5: an hour. Do we decide that's some more. It's a lot.
Speaker 1: That's a lot.
Speaker 4: That's a lot, dude, it's a lot. Like get down
Speaker 4: to San Antonio.
Speaker 5: Yeah, where it's cheaper, So take your kid, rent a hotel.
Speaker 5: Having baby sat in San Antonio about it.
Speaker 2: It's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two.
Speaker 3: So Lunchbox got sick again, and this time it was
Speaker 3: a little bit different because he had the typical strip throat,
Speaker 3: but more than that he looked straight out of the
Speaker 3: Will Smith Hitch movie, like completely inflamed all over his body.
Speaker 5: Something certainly happened number five. So at the end of
Speaker 5: last week, Lunchbox went home sick and we heard you
Speaker 5: had strep throat. And then we saw a picture and
Speaker 5: it looked like you had strap face and solen face.
Speaker 5: And I don't know, Evola, I don't know what you had,
Speaker 5: but that I didn't look like strep throat. Uh no, man,
Speaker 5: they swabbed my throat, it was strep throat, But were
Speaker 5: there other things? Well, I don't know.
Speaker 7: All of a sudden, my face swelled up, my eyes
Speaker 7: that could barely open them, My tongue was so fat,
Speaker 7: my lips felt like you know those girls on Real Housewives,
Speaker 7: like where they're just real puffy. And so Friday night,
Speaker 7: every thirty minutes, I'd wake up because I couldn't like breathe.
Speaker 7: So I went back to the doctor on Saturday and
Speaker 7: I went in there and doctor comes in said, let
Speaker 7: me take a look, and she couldn't even see down
Speaker 7: my throat because there was so much swelling. And she
Speaker 7: walked out of the room and she goes, renee, renee,
Speaker 7: I need ten milligrams and room four STAT, and they
Speaker 7: used the shockers on them for now, Claire, let me
Speaker 7: tell you, when they say stat, that is not something
Speaker 7: you want to hear at the Dodger's office.
Speaker 5: You're sure they said stat because you lie about words.
Speaker 5: I think they probably said, hey, can we get this
Speaker 5: in a hurry. They said the word sta.
Speaker 4: Stat's way faster than in a hurry.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but no, no, people in the in the minute clinic,
Speaker 5: don't yell stat. No, guys.
Speaker 7: She said it three times. She said, where is Renee?
Speaker 7: I need ten milligrams in room four STAT. And in
Speaker 7: my head, I'm like, I'm room four. And then Renee came,
Speaker 7: I guess came around the course. She said, hey, I
Speaker 7: need ten milligrams.
Speaker 5: Room four STAT. Three times and we've only heard it twice.
Speaker 7: No, no, that was that was the third, okay, because
Speaker 7: when she walked down the room, she said and then
Speaker 7: she said, where's Renee?
Speaker 5: And where was she behind?
Speaker 1: Always I don't know.
Speaker 7: So Renee came in the room and she says, roll
Speaker 7: over on your side, you know, himp in the air
Speaker 7: and kind of pull down your pants and she she goes,
Speaker 7: you ever had a shot before like this? I was
Speaker 7: like like this, I don't know what she was talking about.
Speaker 7: I would listen. I didn't care what kind of shot
Speaker 7: it was. At that point, I didn't feel good. I
Speaker 7: was miserable, and I couldn't talk, couldn't swallow. I get
Speaker 7: hurt the swallow saliva like it was.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's even a sort throat sometimes. No, no, no, no, no, no, guys,
Speaker 5: it was We believe you that it was strep throat.
Speaker 5: It just looked like so much more right. It looked
Speaker 5: like you ordered all the appetizers and sides to go
Speaker 5: with it.
Speaker 1: Correct because your eyes were glued.
Speaker 5: Your eyes were so swollen shut that. I've had struck
Speaker 5: throat a couple of times in my life, and by
Speaker 5: the way, it sucks, it's the worst. It is the worst.
Speaker 5: My eyes were fine. Yeah, you think you had used
Speaker 5: infection on your face? Your eyes? Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 9: She so.
Speaker 7: Then the doctor's like, I think you're allergic to moxicilan,
Speaker 7: and so she changed my prescription to a different medicine,
Speaker 7: gave me the I got the shot stat in the
Speaker 7: left hip, and then they gave me some other antibiotics,
Speaker 7: and then I had to go back on Sunday because
Speaker 7: the swelling still wasn't going down, and they gave me
Speaker 7: oral steroids and that's where we're at. But she thinks
Speaker 7: it was an allergic reaction of moxicillin. But if I
Speaker 7: look at my original picture from the doctor's office that
Speaker 7: I took, my eyes were already starting to puff.
Speaker 5: So that was pre max celling. That was pre amoxicillin.
Speaker 5: Did you tell you, I don't know what a moxicillin is.
Speaker 5: It's an antibiotic.
Speaker 1: Did you tell them about your sialis?
Speaker 5: Like? Could it be the sialogy everything was getting I
Speaker 5: couldn't tell someone. Did Someone online said, looks like your
Speaker 5: salis went to your eyes. But it's pretty funny. I laughed.
Speaker 4: It lasts for four hours.
Speaker 5: And did you call a doctor if it lasted for
Speaker 5: every four hours?
Speaker 7: I didn't even know, and I probably and people on
Speaker 7: line were like, you should go to the er. And
Speaker 7: I'm telling you I Friday night was so hard to sleep,
Speaker 7: just because I I'm kind of choke on my tongue,
Speaker 7: and I guess I realize that now. I didn't realize
Speaker 7: I was choking on my tongue at that time, but
Speaker 7: it was just like I'd wake up and be like, oh,
Speaker 7: it's only been thirty minutes, oh gosh, and it took
Speaker 7: forever for that night to go by.
Speaker 5: So if you were already swelling, why do they think
Speaker 5: you were allergic to something that they gave you when
Speaker 5: you were already swelling pre I'm not sure. Do you
Speaker 5: think it has anything to do theory working theory with
Speaker 5: your swollen testicle raising up like rising, not that it's
Speaker 5: on its way out? Can I tell you something though?
Speaker 5: My testicle didn't hurt all weekend?
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, because you was distracted.
Speaker 5: Maybe that's what it was. I got a hand Hart's
Speaker 5: punched it in the shelter. You forget about your head
Speaker 5: for a second. That made me true, But it was
Speaker 5: just so crazy. I have never been that like swollen.
Speaker 8: Ever.
Speaker 5: Were your kids sick? My middle child had strap hold on,
Speaker 5: But I don't know how I got. No, no, no,
Speaker 5: I never said I didn't know how I got.
Speaker 1: You did say, however, I don't get stressed.
Speaker 4: So let him finish, because when did his child have strip.
Speaker 5: At the beginning of last week? And you just came
Speaker 5: to knobs and we're always like, dude, you're bringing every
Speaker 5: illness into the room.
Speaker 7: Hold on, hold on, stop stop. I have not had
Speaker 7: strep throat in probably four years, like when they were young. No, no,
Speaker 7: when they were young. I did get it because I'd
Speaker 7: been re exposed to it. But this must have been
Speaker 7: some strong variant that just broke through some dams.
Speaker 5: Because I'm gonna tell you what.
Speaker 4: It rocked my world because your immune system is already
Speaker 4: busy fighting your testicle issue. That like, that's why I
Speaker 4: was able to direction.
Speaker 5: They're probably so tired from the east fight. I I
Speaker 5: don't know what soldiers. I know where. I understand where
Speaker 5: I got it attrition soldier from the yeast in his mouth.
Speaker 4: So like, did you eat anything? Elt like before you
Speaker 4: had the medication, like before you started to swell up,
Speaker 4: Like yeah, you have the strip throat, but like did
Speaker 4: you eat anything? Because like what was happening to your eyes?
Speaker 4: Like if my son has shrimp like or a shellfish.
Speaker 5: His eyes look like like lunch box allergic reaction.
Speaker 4: Yes, So it's like, okay, before the maxicillin, did you.

Speaker 5: let me tell you it feels good to be a human.
Speaker 5: It feels great. That's a great feeling when you've been
Speaker 5: sick for a long time and the first time you
Speaker 5: feel pretty good. You're like just a guy I ever
Speaker 5: felt in my life. And trying to reply to like
Speaker 5: text messages or what I couldn't read.
Speaker 1: Them because your eyes are swollen.
Speaker 7: Yes, Like I was like typing things. I type it
Speaker 7: and then I looked at a couple days there. I'm like, man,
Speaker 7: I missmelled a lot of those words.
Speaker 1: Guys, do you think four days is enough? Like he's
Speaker 1: here talking and every time he yells, I see spit
Speaker 1: come out of his mouth, and I'm like, are we okay?
Speaker 5: I feel like we should put him in a dog cone,
Speaker 5: like when never, like Stanley has surgery to keep it
Speaker 5: from like licking his paw that's been surgically repaired. We
Speaker 5: need to put you in a cone so it only
Speaker 5: goes forward. No, no, no, I have so many medicines
Speaker 5: in my body. Guys, I am like a this is
Speaker 5: the healthiest I've ever been. Every time you turn and
Speaker 5: look at them. They back away, Morgan and Eddie back away.
Speaker 5: I don't understand. Why could you spit when you talk
Speaker 5: as well.
Speaker 7: I've got antibiotics, I've got steroids, I've got something in
Speaker 7: my hips stat.
Speaker 1: And your tongue still sounds a little fat like it
Speaker 1: might be okay, it might be.
Speaker 5: I am happy that you're better. Oh, thank you. I'd
Speaker 5: like to lead with that.
Speaker 1: You're far away.
Speaker 5: But yeah, there's the reason my desk gets across the room.
Speaker 5: But man, I looked rough.
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, we thought you were dying. We all kind
Speaker 1: of shared the video like did you see this?
Speaker 5: Like this is not good? Yeah? Yeah, And I mean
Speaker 5: maybe I should have gone to the R but I did.
Speaker 5: I mean people like going you need to go to
Speaker 5: the R and get drip antibiotics.
Speaker 4: I was like, wait, so hold on. I don't know
Speaker 4: if we got clarity on this. Maybe we did. But
Speaker 4: when you were at the doctor about all of this,
Speaker 4: did you disclose to them your other issues?
Speaker 5: There was no talk.
Speaker 4: Okay, but no, that's not this is the problem. He's not.
Speaker 5: I could barely talk, but you could still point with
Speaker 5: your finger down your swallen testify, just point pull it
Speaker 5: out in point because if it's related, there was no
Speaker 5: relation to that.
Speaker 8: You don't know that.
Speaker 5: He runs his pants down.
Speaker 1: They're like, get him out of here, call the cops,
Speaker 1: and testical he's got a bowl.
Speaker 4: Of because there's no relation to the swollen eye to
Speaker 4: the struck throat.
Speaker 5: Oh no, there is no.
Speaker 1: There isn't.
Speaker 5: It doesn't seem like it. You had that before they
Speaker 5: gave you that. I'm mock to selling, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: So it was part of whatever the strep throat virus was.
Speaker 5: It was causing it. It was it was a major
Speaker 5: strength post of all, he has a virus that's just
Speaker 5: swelling up random parts of his body, testical, eyes, tongue.
Speaker 5: I mean then he also got strapped from his kid.
Speaker 5: It's just two different things. But a lot of women
Speaker 5: were jealous of my lips. I will say that. I
Speaker 5: got a lot of comments saying, oh, I'm gonna show
Speaker 5: that to my lip lady. No, they didn't, I swear.
Speaker 5: Even Ray's wife said it.
Speaker 4: I think she's just trying to be like supportive and helpful, like,
Speaker 4: your lips look great.
Speaker 5: I can't believe you're back today me either, Why are
Speaker 5: you back? Well? No, no, I mean, I can't your
Speaker 5: back and you look normal.
Speaker 1: I will give him that. His recovery time is excellent.
Speaker 1: Like this was four days ago. Guys, he was gonna
Speaker 1: explode and all of a sudden he comes in. I'm
Speaker 1: the best shape in my life.
Speaker 8: I've ever been.
Speaker 4: Uh, do you have any blisters or no, there's no blisters.
Speaker 5: We gotta go. No no, she mean not on your
Speaker 5: private in your mount on your face, I like orally,
Speaker 5: yeah that's what I mean. Nope, I got in your privates. Nope. Okay,
Speaker 5: all right, we can continue this on the podcast. Just
Speaker 5: go search for the Bobby Bone Show. We'll continue going
Speaker 5: over there. All right, Hold on a minute.
Speaker 2: It's the best Bits of the Week with Morgan. Number two.
Speaker 3: And because of getting sick, Lunchbox claims that he missed
Speaker 3: out on a huge opportunity to potentially be on one
Speaker 3: of his favorite reality TV shows. And I don't know
Speaker 3: if those two quite correlate, but you'll get the picture
Speaker 3: here in a minute.
Speaker 5: Number four, the Lunchbox got super sick. He had strep
Speaker 5: throat and if you saw the pictures online, his throat
Speaker 5: wasn't the thing that was swollen. It was his eyes.
Speaker 5: It looked like if you've seen Hitch, whenever he has
Speaker 5: an allergic reaction, his whole face swalls up, and all
Speaker 5: of us were like, that's that's not strep throat, that's
Speaker 5: strep face. Yeah, that was the whole face. So I
Speaker 5: want to I do want to play the audio of
Speaker 5: Lunchbox being sick. So would you play that ray star through?
Speaker 4: Wait?
Speaker 5: What that is? Literally how I sounded?
Speaker 4: All I saw, that's okay, So that's what he posted.
Speaker 5: I couldn't like, I couldn't talk.
Speaker 1: What day was that?
Speaker 5: That was on Saturday morning?
Speaker 4: Oh my goodness, Oh my gosh, because I couldn't have
Speaker 4: the volume up. Whenever I saw his post, I just
Speaker 4: had to look and I know, I mean, that's just
Speaker 4: so much worse.
Speaker 7: Well, I guess I wouldn't bring as well as I
Speaker 7: thought I was, Like, I mean, like I said, I
Speaker 7: was every thirty minutes, I'd wake up when I was
Speaker 7: sleeping because I was like, oh I'm not comfortable.
Speaker 5: But I guess it was because I couldn't get air.
Speaker 5: So that's not the reason the world hates him.
Speaker 1: Oh that's not.
Speaker 5: No, he got sick. He's got a reason he thinks
Speaker 5: the world hates him. Survivor Season fifty. Guys, they tease
Speaker 5: this thing.
Speaker 7: They're gonna hide an immunity idols in all fifty states.
Speaker 7: If you go find the immunity idol, guess.
Speaker 5: What you get to go to Los Angeles for the
Speaker 5: live reunion special, meet all the cast, hang out with
Speaker 5: Jeff Probs everything. And when did they do the reveal
Speaker 5: for Tennessee I'm gonna get Saturday February fourteenth. When I
Speaker 5: sounded like this start? Did you also hurt?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 5: I hurtain?
Speaker 1: I couldn't.
Speaker 5: It was miserable. What if you didn't have that happening?
Speaker 7: I would have been on that idol because that idol
Speaker 7: was located one point one miles from this studio right here, huh,
Speaker 7: in a park that I have been to over one
Speaker 7: hundred times since I've lived here in Nashville. I know
Speaker 7: it like the back of my hand, and I would
Speaker 7: have been there, digging in the dirt with that idol
Speaker 7: in my hand, my ticket to Los Angeles. And the
Speaker 7: day the search happens is when I am infected with
Speaker 7: whatever I had. When I couldn't talk, I couldn't move,
Speaker 7: I was in pain, and once again the world is
Speaker 7: out to get me. The world hates me, my chance
Speaker 7: to go to Los Angeles, be in the crowd. Jeff
Speaker 7: Brops meet me and be like, you know what, we
Speaker 7: need you on season fifty two.
Speaker 5: So you think you getting set catchy from not only
Speaker 5: finding the idol and hanging out at a celebration of
Speaker 5: season fifty that they would have wanted you on fifty two. Correct,
Speaker 5: they would have seen me, they would have met me,
Speaker 5: my energy.
Speaker 7: They'd have been like, look, man, we've already were in
Speaker 7: the middle of season fifty one filming, but fifty two
Speaker 7: you're our guy.
Speaker 5: That was the vision I had of what was going
Speaker 5: to happen. Oh my gosh, it just wrecks me. Why
Speaker 5: the world is every time I try to get a
Speaker 5: step ahead and then I just get knocked down again.
Speaker 5: You sound like well chumbawamba, yeah, dumping. Yeah, you get
Speaker 5: knocked down, you get up again, But when you get up,
Speaker 5: it's too late, and the idol's already been found. It's
Speaker 5: already been found. I mean that.
Speaker 7: Do you not agree with me that that's the reason
Speaker 7: one thousand, nine hundred and two.
Speaker 5: Wait, it doesn't matter, but yes, we think that's very unfortunate.

Speaker 5: think they would have I mean it would have been bad. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I couldn't have done it. I'm sorry that happened.

Speaker 1: it and they were like you're the winner, and then
Speaker 1: you were like a but they'd be like, oh, you
Speaker 1: can't be the winner?

Speaker 5: there's no scientific proof behind that theory. I just had.
Speaker 2: It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two.
Speaker 3: Next week we are headed out on the top shelf
Speaker 3: country cruise. Some of the show is going it's going
Speaker 3: to be super fun, but there is some drama because
Speaker 3: when it comes to this show, if there are multiples
Speaker 3: of us involved, then there's always going to be drama.
Speaker 3: This one particularly pertains to free stuff number three.
Speaker 5: So our show is going on a cruise next week
Speaker 5: with a bunch of listeners and so we're excited about it.
Speaker 5: We actually have another plan for twenty twenty seven and
Speaker 5: I think it's called Top Shelf Country Cruise and Riley
Speaker 5: Green's doing next year. This year's Keith theurb been a
Speaker 5: lot of artists. But there's always drama with anything that
Speaker 5: we do. And so you guys had a meeting yesterday.
Speaker 1: Yeah, with the cruise people.
Speaker 5: Oh really, it wasn't just internal.
Speaker 1: It was internal, but they have the schedule for what
Speaker 1: we're doing.
Speaker 5: Okay, So what I hear is because they do have casino,
Speaker 5: a casino on the boat. Yeah, and these guys here
Speaker 5: are very pumped about going and gambling. That lunchbox was
Speaker 5: asking for gambling money on the cruise.
Speaker 1: I mean I walk in the meeting. The first thing
Speaker 1: I hear is are you going to give me money
Speaker 1: to gamble with?
Speaker 7: What did you ask a lunchbox? I said, how much money?
Speaker 7: How many chips are they going to give me to
Speaker 7: play with? Because they want me in their casino so
Speaker 7: other people will stay in the casino to be around me.
Speaker 7: That's the whole point. They want a celebrity in the casino.
Speaker 7: And she goes, they're giving you nothing?
Speaker 9: What?
Speaker 5: Well, I don't think they should give you money to gamble.
Speaker 5: What do you mean? I think it's a casino. If
Speaker 5: you you don't have to go to the casino, you
Speaker 5: don't have an appearance in the casino. Right, But it
Speaker 5: will keep people in their casino longer.
Speaker 7: It will be proven if they are playing blackjack or
Speaker 7: craps with me, they're going to stay longer at the table,
Speaker 7: even if they're losing, because I am there.
Speaker 5: That's if I think that they should give him money
Speaker 5: to gamble.
Speaker 9: No.
Speaker 5: I think if with whatever terms that we agree to
Speaker 5: at the beginning, you were to take any pay you're getting,
Speaker 5: I'd like a certain amount of it and chips. I
Speaker 5: think they could probably do that.
Speaker 1: Because he's going to be there anyway gambling, right.
Speaker 5: So guy loves a casino.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Right, So they told you, without a doubt, no money
Speaker 5: for gambling free, absolutely zero, obtely none. What was your
Speaker 5: answer to that? What's your response? So, no, then I
Speaker 5: probably won't be at the casino. Anybody believe that?
Speaker 1: No, No chance he'll be there, No chance. That's super fun.
Speaker 5: You're gambling on a boat man.
Speaker 1: You know what my concern was though, because I asked
Speaker 1: and I was like, how am I going to get drinks,
Speaker 1: like do I buy my own drinks or whatever? Like
Speaker 1: you have to buy a package, a drink package, so
Speaker 1: I can't go buy like one Pina Colada. I got
Speaker 1: to buy a package for the whole weekend, wait or
Speaker 1: the week now he mean's getting mad?
Speaker 4: No, I'm just thinking, like what So it's just drinks,
Speaker 4: but like not like food, no food, just alcohol.
Speaker 5: Yeah, food were covered.
Speaker 1: Well they even said coax too, And I'm like, what
Speaker 1: if I wanted to.
Speaker 5: Come, there's no way. I'll make sure you guys get
Speaker 5: cokes if I have to step in.
Speaker 4: Bobby coke a fully stocked.
Speaker 5: We were in a different room, let's stop. Don't don't
Speaker 5: bring it up. If you guys missed that podcast it's
Speaker 5: on Mondays part two, where we didn't know we were
Speaker 5: all opening up what our rooms were on this cruise.
Speaker 5: It turns out we're all in different kinds of rooms. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Literally, we would all be on the same floor except
Speaker 4: for maybe Bobby.
Speaker 5: I assume we all would be.
Speaker 1: We weren't.
Speaker 4: Okay, well then we would all be elevated.
Speaker 5: Yeah we weren't. So no free gambling money. But I
Speaker 5: think that's fine. I would have said that was it.
Speaker 4: I'm a few chips to get him started.
Speaker 5: No, I don't think you give somebody free gambling money.
Speaker 4: You can't.
Speaker 1: Okay, what if he wins a million dollars that would
Speaker 1: be great for their homes.
Speaker 4: Well, then maybe they'd be like, oh, sorry, it's invalid,
Speaker 4: doesn't count because we gifted you that.
Speaker 5: Okay. I think they would possibly give him funny, So
Speaker 5: it's sort of like play money. If they give him
Speaker 5: play money and he can't win anything he wins, he
Speaker 5: doesn't win. No, trust me.
Speaker 7: Because there was a blackjack tournament and they're like, oh,
Speaker 7: you want in I was like, yeah, the money tournament. Yeah,
Speaker 7: if you can't win the money, And I'm like, well,
Speaker 7: then why would I play.
Speaker 5: Because it's gonna look like it's set up if you go.
Speaker 5: It's like if I were to get in one of
Speaker 5: those Saint jud dream homes and i'm you win the home,
Speaker 5: and I put in whatever to win the and I win.
Speaker 4: Set up it's fore yeah, like lunchbocks, this is work.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 7: So I was like, no, I don't want to play
Speaker 7: in a tournament, and I'm not gonna if I can't
Speaker 7: win the money, what's the point of playing? Like I
Speaker 7: get all the way to the championship and it's like, oh, sorry,
Speaker 7: we're gonna give it Tim here.
Speaker 5: Well screw Tim, Yeah, screwed him, you know what I mean?
Speaker 5: Like I beat Tim. I think that's fine.
Speaker 1: A blackjack tournament. That sounds awesome.
Speaker 5: That sounds so did did you ask for anything?
Speaker 1: Mine was just like my big concern was the or
Speaker 1: the drinks. I'm like, I geah, tell me about the drinks.
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do, Like I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: pay for my own drinks all all weekend, but I
Speaker 1: am doing like a wine tasting and like, can I
Speaker 1: take some bottles from there? Because like that'll do it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I bet you. I bet you'll be fine.
Speaker 7: Okay, and you understand it, and you're never gonna to
Speaker 7: hey for a drink on the boat anyway. You know,
Speaker 7: listeners are gonna buy everything for you.
Speaker 1: No idea.
Speaker 5: Probably doing this segmented so you can get money from
Speaker 5: listeners to gamble.
Speaker 7: Like how dumb are we? Like guys, when you're at
Speaker 7: the bar, a listener, Oh let me get that drink. Okay,
Speaker 7: go ahead, man.
Speaker 5: Now they probably will. Yeah, absolutely feel free. We leave
Speaker 5: not this friday, but next friday. The boat I think
Speaker 5: the boat goes off in the afternoon, right, yeah, is
Speaker 5: that what it is?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 5: Uh no, I understand. No gambling money, the drinks. I'm
Speaker 5: surprised they're not giving you guys a few drink tickets, right,
Speaker 5: but I'll make sure that you get coke, my man. Okay,
Speaker 5: I'll make sure that everybody gets free cokes.
Speaker 2: It's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two.

Speaker 4: much so, and I have officially made an appointment for
Speaker 4: hormone replacement therapy. So I'm going to get all my
Speaker 4: blood work done. I'm seeing a doctor. I completely changed
Speaker 4: doctors from someone that I've been going to.
Speaker 5: This first ignorance before you keep going out. Thank you
Speaker 5: for all of us. I know that was an announcement,
Speaker 5: and I know to you there is significance. We don't
Speaker 5: know what that means you yes, yes, but I'm just
Speaker 5: saying we don't know what that means.
Speaker 1: Explain it.
Speaker 4: Okay. So I watched the documentary Balance a Perimenopause Journey.
Speaker 5: Who didn't By the way, guys, I didn't watch that one.
Speaker 4: And it made me realize, like, I need to take
Speaker 4: this more seriously. I have had blood work done before,
Speaker 4: but you need to stay on top of it. This
Speaker 4: was a few years ago, and if y'all were call,
Speaker 4: I got on some testosterone and even then I wasn't
Speaker 4: really keeping up with it as I should. And then
Speaker 4: I decided just myself to get off of it. And
Speaker 4: I should have really consulted with a doctor. And so anyway,
Speaker 4: I haven't had blood work done in a few years now,
Speaker 4: so it is time. I'm going to a hormone specialist.
Speaker 4: She's a doctor. I thought she would be more difficult
Speaker 4: to get into, but I just decided to make the call,
Speaker 4: even if it was a three month wait, I just
Speaker 4: wait question.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you've been to a lot of weird doctors. It
Speaker 5: wasn't even real doctors.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so it's just one of those no like you
Speaker 5: would go and they'd be.
Speaker 4: Like, no, she's an she's a gynecologist.
Speaker 5: It's pull a hair from your hand and be like, oh,
Speaker 5: you're a little nutrient, okay off.
Speaker 4: So this sort of happened too because Morgan was like, hey,
Speaker 4: I need a new doctor, like, and I realized I
Speaker 4: wouldn't like what I say to you Morgan, Yeah, you
Speaker 4: said you didn't like hers. You're like, I'm not recommending
Speaker 4: this person. I was like, you should ask somebody else.
Speaker 4: And then I was thinking, why would I continue to
Speaker 4: someone that that I don't really like that much? Like
Speaker 4: if I'm not even a recommend her to a friend.
Speaker 4: So I decided two things here, I'm getting a new
Speaker 4: guynecologist and double wind for me. She also will do
Speaker 4: the hormone replacement therapy.
Speaker 5: I'm raising my hand again. Okay, we're still kind of lost, right, Yeah,
Speaker 5: to the general listener, we do not know. Okay, to
Speaker 5: the general male listener, we do not know what this
Speaker 5: could impact in your life or what they're going to
Speaker 5: extract from your body blood.
Speaker 4: Okay, they're going to draw blood and then they're going
Speaker 4: to test my What are my pgesterone levels? What are
Speaker 4: my estrogen levels? What are my testosterone levels? I don't know?
Speaker 5: But what do they do to make that different?
Speaker 1: In? How were you?
Speaker 4: They're going to give me a hormone reple Like, say,
Speaker 4: if I have no estrogen, they're going to give me
Speaker 4: some estrogen.
Speaker 5: Will you grow a mustache?
Speaker 4: I did the testosterone and I never grew extra hair,
Speaker 4: So I mean I shave my face for the peach fuzz,
Speaker 4: But I mean I do have different hairs that will
Speaker 4: pop up, like on my chin. No, like just a
Speaker 4: little hair and I have to like pluck it. But
Speaker 4: that's every woman.
Speaker 9: I know.
Speaker 4: Hat some point in my life, I think that it'll
Speaker 4: impact y'all because it's going to help my mood, my
Speaker 4: way well yeah, all the time, or internally, like what's
Speaker 4: really happening, like my my joy, my passions, my desires,
Speaker 4: like things I'm not.
Speaker 5: Into maybe for podcast.
Speaker 4: Part passionate about lots of things.
Speaker 5: Yeahs like the boy you know that type thing.
Speaker 4: It covers it all. But you don't like your sleep,
Speaker 4: your your energy levels like everything.
Speaker 5: Question.
Speaker 4: I just feel like I'm on the verge of some change,
Speaker 4: like it's going to feel good, Like I'm gonna feel awesome,
Speaker 4: and I'm putting a lot of hope in this basket
Speaker 4: for sure. But I feel like once I get my
Speaker 4: levels right, like.
Speaker 5: New me, hand up, hand up?
Speaker 8: Can I do this? Yes?
Speaker 4: Men should do it too.
Speaker 5: Really doing perimenopause, well you could pass No, we have premanopause.
Speaker 5: Though we have a premanopause. That's what it is.
Speaker 4: Perimanopause.
Speaker 5: Okay, so when does this happen and when can we
Speaker 5: expect the results?
Speaker 4: Oh, my appointment is in.
Speaker 5: Eight days and then the hormones go in when.
Speaker 4: I don't know, I guess I've got to do the
Speaker 4: blood work and then I'll get the results. I'm just
Speaker 4: proud of myself. This is the kind of appointments I
Speaker 4: love to put off. They're the appointments I love to
Speaker 4: talk about and think about, and you know, want to
Speaker 4: be that person one day. And now I'm actually going
Speaker 4: and and I've made a commitment to myself that I'm
Speaker 4: going to stay consistent with it. That's why I wanted
Speaker 4: to find a new doctor because obviously, for me, I
Speaker 4: go in for my yearly checkups, but maybe she'll say, hey,
Speaker 4: we need to do blood work. Yeah, once a year
Speaker 4: or once every six months. I don't know. I've just
Speaker 4: never been consistent with it. So this is my pledge.
Speaker 5: I think it is a great example of being proactive
Speaker 5: about something that would be easy to put off.
Speaker 4: Yes, and now we have the knowledge and awareness. Like
Speaker 4: some women, you know, even just a decade ago, they
Speaker 4: might have been walking through their forties just thinking like, oh, well,
Speaker 4: life sucks. I guess it's just the way it is,
Speaker 4: and had they known, like, oh, this is perimenopause and
Speaker 4: I can go do something about it and be a
Speaker 4: little more proactive, they could change the trajectory of how
Speaker 4: they feel. It could save their marriage, save their relationships.
Speaker 5: Are you projecting?
Speaker 4: Am I projecting?
Speaker 1: What this could have saved your marriage?
Speaker 5: Well? We just missed it.
Speaker 4: For me, it's too late, but for other people maybe.
Speaker 5: Okay, So here's something I'd like to run by you.
Speaker 5: I think that's great, by the way, because I think
Speaker 5: it's a great example. Even though we didn't understand, there
Speaker 5: are a lot of women out there that do you understand?
Speaker 5: And we asked really stupid questions, but they weren't meant
Speaker 5: ask stupid questions. So forgive anything that we.
Speaker 4: I don't really are asking stupid questions.
Speaker 5: I don't.
Speaker 4: I'm the one experiencing it, and I still don't even
Speaker 4: really understand what's going on.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 5: Never good. Then, when you wanted the doctor and they're
Speaker 5: putting stuf in you, if youn't know what they're putting in.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well I know it'll be a hormone. My body
Speaker 4: already has made that. It no longer is making.
Speaker 5: There is a place and I'm gonna have my crack
Speaker 5: research team. I look this up as I talk, and
Speaker 5: I just saw it on TikTok. There's a place in
Speaker 5: Northwest Arkansas. Obviously I'm super partial in Northwest Arkansas, and
Speaker 5: they have one of those full body scan things.
Speaker 1: Like for cancer for I don't aw that's cool.
Speaker 5: Like you go in and I just saw it, and
Speaker 5: I saw I wish want to swiped out of it,
Speaker 5: but I just saw it. And you go in and
Speaker 5: you do the whole thing where they go all the
Speaker 5: way down your body. It is called no commercial, no
Speaker 5: free ads because I don't even know if it's good.
Speaker 5: It's called Vera Lux and Rogers Arkansas. And you go
Speaker 5: in and they do a full comprehensive whole body MRI scan. Question.
Speaker 5: If you do that, don't you figure like you're probably
Speaker 5: gonna die? Or am I the only one that think that? Yeah,
Speaker 5: why would you go?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 1: No, I think it's good.
Speaker 5: No, it is good. It is for sure good. But
Speaker 5: I know if I go in, they're going to find
Speaker 5: something to tell me. So if I don't go, I'm
Speaker 5: not going to die. Right, So, Okay, this is the
Speaker 5: problem I have with making a will.
Speaker 4: So something similar to that like they're not. I just
Speaker 4: googled and they provide similar but not directly the same
Speaker 4: type of service. But I do endorsements for something here
Speaker 4: called craft Body Scan, and I go in and I
Speaker 4: have the scans, and that's how I know I have
Speaker 4: a kidney stone. They told me in my that I
Speaker 4: have it. And I'm like waiting for the day that
Speaker 4: and maybe it'll just chill there and not do anything.
Speaker 4: But I had to go in and be prepared. I
Speaker 4: know that I have a cyst on one of my
Speaker 4: ovaries as well.
Speaker 5: I don't find a cyst on my ovary.
Speaker 4: It's just good for me to have the information, like
Speaker 4: I'd rather know.
Speaker 5: I get the information. They even have an ovary. I'm
Speaker 5: going to be mad.
Speaker 1: That's trouble.
Speaker 5: That would be bad if you have a yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: I guess I need to go to this place because
Speaker 5: I'm just saying that because I'm not going to go
Speaker 5: to Atlanta. I'm not going to go to somewhere that
Speaker 5: has this. This is we live in Northwest Arkansas, a
Speaker 5: little bit so vera lux know how much does yours cost?
Speaker 4: I mean, I have the prices for my commercials, like
Speaker 4: I know the deals but I mean as an endorser,
Speaker 4: I got my scans comped, but like it can range anywhere.
Speaker 1: Nice.
Speaker 4: That's how it works, guys. You go experience it, see
Speaker 4: if you liked it, and then you agree to the endorsement.
Speaker 4: So I did, and I thoroughly liked it. So they
Speaker 4: have packages anywhere from like two hundred dollars to two
Speaker 4: thousand dollars. It depends on what you get scans.
Speaker 5: I don't think I want to do a free one
Speaker 5: because then they won't find stuff like, oh, he's our guy,
Speaker 5: we need to make sure he's healthy. I want to
Speaker 5: go to my fake name herb Tar like you told everyone.
Speaker 4: Oh, I think they would want me to find something
Speaker 4: so then I could be proactive.
Speaker 5: I want you to find death for commercial amy here.
Speaker 5: And you know what I went in. They told me
Speaker 5: I'm dying in a week.
Speaker 4: No, they told me, oh wow, early detection. This is
Speaker 4: now going to save your life.
Speaker 5: They say early detection is key. It is what if
Speaker 5: they find it mid detection and it's get backside.
Speaker 4: Of mid, all the more reason for somebody else to
Speaker 4: go ahead and get a scan.
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, I like to do this what you're called
Speaker 5: craft craft.
Speaker 1: This one too. Yeah, they should do it like Amy though,
Speaker 1: get it camped.
Speaker 4: It's just nope, nope. Here's what's gonna happen. Bobby's gonna
Speaker 4: do it, and they're gonna be like, oh, we'd rather
Speaker 4: hire Bobby to do our endorsements. And I'll be like, great, thanks,
Speaker 4: night's orguing with you.
Speaker 5: So you're saying he can't go to your location.
Speaker 4: Wow, I'm just kidding, you know.
Speaker 5: Uh, they have a they're the same type of the
Speaker 5: same type of thing.
Speaker 4: Before Valentine's Day they ran a couple's heart and waters.
Speaker 5: Help me, you want a time machines to get your
Speaker 5: divorce fixed and that go balance pretty Valentine's Day. You
Speaker 5: give me any help here?
Speaker 1: They just scan the heart on Valentine's Day, heart and lungs.
Speaker 5: Dude, that's oh, that's pretty good. They scan your heart.
Speaker 5: You're not in love?
Speaker 9: What?
Speaker 4: No, But some people if they have heart disease that
Speaker 4: like runs in their family or.
Speaker 5: All this we're telling jokes in a way to make
Speaker 5: Melgion serious. It's something you'd want to hear us talk about.
Speaker 4: I would want to know.
Speaker 5: Yeah. And by the way, I'm not being paid by
Speaker 5: any of this. Okay, good luck. We can't wait to
Speaker 5: get all your horse changed. My what short for hormones?
Speaker 5: I was like, what did you just it's a short
Speaker 5: word for hormones. Guys, give it to lingo. Okay, okay,
Speaker 5: it's the.
Speaker 2: Best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two.
Speaker 5: There was a surprise guest on our show this week.
Speaker 3: His name was Butch Hartman, and he is the creator
Speaker 3: of Fairly Odd Parents, And if you're like me and
Speaker 3: you grew up watching that show, it was so much
Speaker 3: fun to listen to him talk about the creation of that.
Speaker 3: But he also did some kind of mock auditions with
Speaker 3: Amy Eddie and Lunchbox for voice actor positions, because all
Speaker 3: of them seem to be going for those roles lately.
Speaker 3: So you'll get a good laugh out of this, and
Speaker 3: maybe it'll inspire you to become a voice actor too.
Speaker 5: Number one, it's very exciting. Butch Hartman's about to come
Speaker 5: in and I'm actually recording this after the interview, just
Speaker 5: so you guys know. So the setup. So Butch Hartman,
Speaker 5: as you'll know, created the Fairly Odd Parents. Danny Phantom,
Speaker 5: a big animation guy, now has his own studio. You'll
Speaker 5: hear all about it. But Scooba. Steve came to me
Speaker 5: and was like, hey, do you want to have Butch
Speaker 5: Hartman on? And we have a little meeting after the
Speaker 5: show most days, and I was like, I don't know,
Speaker 5: like and he goes with everybody on the show is
Speaker 5: trying to do voiceovers, and I was like, oh, that
Speaker 5: is perfect, so you were going to hear and I
Speaker 5: thought it was super fun, super compelling, the entire interview
Speaker 5: now with Butch Hartman, who now has Butch Hartman Studios
Speaker 5: and he makes his own cartoons under his own company.
Speaker 5: But I think to all of us on the show,
Speaker 5: this was super fun. So here he is and you
Speaker 5: can follow him at Butch Hartman. But us the show
Speaker 5: did not know who was coming in, by the way,
Speaker 5: and then Lunchbox thought it was O's that he's already on.
Speaker 5: That's O's you'll hear it. Okay, Butch Hartman. Here we go, Boom,
Speaker 5: We're about to have a guest enter the studio. I
Speaker 5: think everybody's gonna be like, what in the world, let's go.
Speaker 5: I think everybody's gonna get very excited. I don't think
Speaker 5: you'll recognize this person's face when he walks in. But
Speaker 5: when I tell you who it is and he sits
Speaker 5: down at the microphone. Then I think everybody will sit
Speaker 5: up just a little bit taller and be on a
Speaker 5: little better behavior. Any guesses, Amy I have?
Speaker 4: Honestly, I'm stumped.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna say, I love this guest booking so much.
Speaker 4: But why do they not look like who we know
Speaker 4: them to be?
Speaker 5: Because you will not know them to be. No, theyn't
Speaker 5: have a mask on, you will not know them to be.
Speaker 1: This it's about something that they they've done.
Speaker 5: Okay, he's walking recognized, he's walking in Now, come on,
Speaker 5: what is lunch? Fox? There's no way. Let's go. Let's go,

Speaker 5: You have no idea the timeliness of you being here.
Speaker 5: This is the greatest gift that you're here. Really, Yes,
Speaker 5: for a couple of reasons. Oh my gosh, I haven't.
Speaker 5: We haven't told them who you are what you do yet?

Speaker 5: way that they're going to explode.
Speaker 8: Okay, am I safe over here?
Speaker 5: You're safe. There's gonna be no liftuids. Okay, So everybody,
Speaker 5: this is but Hartman. But Hartman is known for creating
Speaker 5: Nickelodeon classics like The Fairly Odd Parents. But that's awesome

Speaker 5: You like that?
Speaker 8: Oh, thank you very much. So your wife trusted me today.
Speaker 5: That has a good jacket.
Speaker 8: Thank you.
Speaker 5: You created fairly Odd Parents.
Speaker 8: I created Fairly Odd Parents back in nineteen ninety seven.
Speaker 8: That's how old. Yeah, I know, that's how old I am, Yes,
Speaker 8: nineteen ninety seven. And uh, it was just a little
Speaker 8: like a drawing to Actually, I brought you a gift.
Speaker 8: By the way. That's a drawing of Cosmo on.
Speaker 5: A post it. That's for you.
Speaker 8: I brought that for you.
Speaker 5: Look at this.
Speaker 8: Yeah, so there you goes. That's old Cosmo. And uh,
Speaker 8: I found a post it in the green room. So
Speaker 8: hope you don't mind if I took that. You just
Speaker 8: do that right now, yes, sure, yes, sir see. I
Speaker 8: don't even beat the process for all of you.
Speaker 5: One one. Nobody else gets one, now, I'm just kidding.
Speaker 5: Fairly Odd Parents are hilarious, by the way, Thank you,
Speaker 5: thank you that it runs that long, like the only
Speaker 5: show that ran for it ran for eighteen years on Nickelodeon.
Speaker 5: And it's still they still I still see it.
Speaker 8: It's on all the time. Yeah, it still runs all
Speaker 8: the time.
Speaker 5: You sti't make new ones.
Speaker 8: No, we don't make new ones anymore. But I made
Speaker 8: fairly OddParents. I did Danny Phantom at the same time.
Speaker 8: It was another one. And then I don't hear anybody cheering,
Speaker 8: by the way, anybody's cheering for me.
Speaker 5: And what's the next let's go to that, and then
Speaker 5: a show called.
Speaker 8: Tough Puppy and one called Bunsen is a Beast. So
Speaker 8: had a great time at Nickelodeon for twenty years.
Speaker 5: How did you start?
Speaker 9: What?
Speaker 5: Were you an artist? And you said, I have this
Speaker 5: idea and I've drawn this.
Speaker 8: I've been drawing since I was a little kid, and
Speaker 8: then I got into the industry. I'm from Michigan originally,
Speaker 8: and then I ended up going to California to go
Speaker 8: to school. Wanted to work for Disney, never did, and
Speaker 8: then ended up finding my way to through the industry.
Speaker 8: Worked for many years, and then they were basically Nickelodeon
Speaker 8: was pretty new in the nineties and they were looking
Speaker 8: for show ideas, and so I went in with this
Speaker 8: idea I thought was kind of fun, a little boy
Speaker 8: with two fairy godparents and grant as every wish. But
Speaker 8: they get it wrong all the time, and they liked it.
Speaker 8: So I got to make one cartoon, and then after
Speaker 8: that they loved that one so much, I got to
Speaker 8: make like three more, four more. So I had about
Speaker 8: ten little short cartoons I made pretty much by myself,
Speaker 8: and then they focus tested them. You guys, ever been
Speaker 8: in a focused test before. It's a terrifying thing where
Speaker 8: they put kids in a room to watch your show
Speaker 8: and you're behind a piece of glass and you can't
Speaker 8: go in. And the kids watch your show and they
Speaker 8: give you like you know, they vote on it, and
Speaker 8: luckily the kids like the show, and so Nickelodeon picked
Speaker 8: it up as a series in March of two thousand
Speaker 8: and one, that's when it first aired.
Speaker 5: Did you ever draw for other shows before you had
Speaker 5: your own show?
Speaker 8: Yeah? Multiple, multiple I ended up doing. I worked at
Speaker 8: you know, Hannah Barbera, I worked at Ambling Productions. I
Speaker 8: worked all over the place as much as I could.
Speaker 8: And you had to learn all these different styles of
Speaker 8: show art before you can, you know, make your own stuff.
Speaker 5: That is so cool. Now, so let me give me
Speaker 5: some background on this this show. Yes, yes, so they
Speaker 5: have all, in their own respective ways, auditioned for different
Speaker 5: I would say, not voice over, but like voice actor role.
Speaker 8: You guys are in the vocal realm. You guys do
Speaker 8: vocal things.
Speaker 4: Microphones for like twenty years.
Speaker 8: If you're in a room with microphone on a show, Yes.
Speaker 5: And makes a good voice actor, like tell me talk
Speaker 5: to me.
Speaker 8: The best thing that makes a good voice actor is
Speaker 8: making a good choice. If you come in with a
Speaker 8: choice that helps me make my day easier, that's going
Speaker 8: to make me happy.
Speaker 4: What do you mean by choice?
Speaker 5: If you know, you know, I may answer the question.
Speaker 5: Go ahead.
Speaker 8: But for example, like if if the character is like
Speaker 8: a beautiful young princess who is sad that she's been
Speaker 8: turned into a frog, right, you need to come in
Speaker 8: and show me how that princess would act and not
Speaker 8: would that princess be what? Would she just be a
Speaker 8: normal voice? Or would you have a choice meaning would
Speaker 8: you make an emotional choice there? Could you come in
Speaker 8: with some emotion or like uh? And you can be
Speaker 8: funny on top of it. Say I'll give you a line.
Speaker 8: I'll give you a line of dialogue if you say,
Speaker 8: I can't believe the witch turned me into a frog,
Speaker 8: but I shall rise again.
Speaker 4: I can't believe the witch turned me into a frog,
Speaker 4: but I I shall again.
Speaker 11: Not react everyone, he's being nice, don't tell you what
Speaker 11: he's being sad to hopeful, but go ahead.
Speaker 8: I'm sorry, please get First of all, I thought that
Speaker 8: was fantastic audition. I just threw it at you too,
Speaker 8: And that was a terrible line I made up but
Speaker 8: you made it better.
Speaker 4: So that was really it wasn't terrible.
Speaker 8: Let's try one more. I would I would say this.
Speaker 8: I would say this as a voice director. I said,
Speaker 8: let's have a little more energy. And I know I
Speaker 8: normally give line reads anyway, so be like, I can't
Speaker 8: believe he turned into a frog, but I should make
Speaker 8: it really big. Okay, let's let's really feel it. I
Speaker 8: want you to outdo the guy with the bear on
Speaker 8: his on his shirt. Okay, right here we go, ready
Speaker 8: on a count of three, one, two, three.
Speaker 4: I can't believe I was turned into a but I
Speaker 4: shall rise again.
Speaker 8: The difference.
Speaker 5: Because you guys are all haters. It wasn't believable.
Speaker 1: I'm just waiting for my line.
Speaker 5: But some more questions, Yes, sir, yes, sir. I would
Speaker 5: think that everyone thinks they could do cartoon ViOS Bobby Bones.
Speaker 8: You're exactly right. Everybody thinks they can't. And people can
Speaker 8: do funny voices, but it's got to have the acting
Speaker 8: behind it. And like I said, when you come in
Speaker 8: with a choice like and by the way, thanks for
Speaker 8: doing that, I need me to put you on the spot.
Speaker 8: You did great, but people come in if you can
Speaker 8: make my day easier as a producer, like if I
Speaker 8: can write to that voice you just did. I've had
Speaker 8: people come in I wasn't expecting anything from them and
Speaker 8: they did this great line reading. I went, wait, I
Speaker 8: can make that a permanent character in the show. You
Speaker 8: know that character? We can write for that. Like the
Speaker 8: guy who played mister Crocker on Fairly OddParents Mother if
Speaker 8: you know Very Good Parents? Uh, Carlos alas Raki came
Speaker 8: in and I said, he's just a crazy teacher and
Speaker 8: he goes, if I can bind Richard Dreyfuss with Willy
Speaker 8: Wonka And he made this incredible voice, and so we
Speaker 8: started writing that character into the show. Became one of
Speaker 8: the most iconic characters on the show. So a voice
Speaker 8: actor can pretty much make a living out of a
Speaker 8: character they create if they come in with a great choice.
Speaker 5: You know what feedback would you give Amy overall or
Speaker 5: if she is auditioning for roles?
Speaker 8: I think Amy did a fantastic job. I think if
Speaker 8: you want to, you strike me as somebody who can
Speaker 8: do a lot of things, and are you to do
Speaker 8: comedy a.
Speaker 9: Lot I've taken oh perfect, Yeah, I would say the
Speaker 9: cool thing is about you got a great voice already,
Speaker 9: and you're really confident, and if you, if you could
Speaker 9: maybe just meeting you for two seconds here, always keep
Speaker 9: working on the comedy and see if you can make
Speaker 9: that even stronger and get those improv skills even more honed.
Speaker 8: Because I just threw that line at you and you
Speaker 8: did great. But even being like being insane like this
Speaker 8: guy over here, you know I can sometimes helping. Yes, yes, yeah,
Speaker 8: you did great. Though you did great.
Speaker 5: So the guy here in the blue shirt just audition
Speaker 5: how's it going, man, Eddie? Tell but about the role
Speaker 5: you auditioned for.
Speaker 1: Yes, I auditioned for. It's like a spin off of
Speaker 1: My Little Pony basically, And they wanted a dad who
Speaker 1: was one of the horses and uh, almost a horse dad.
Speaker 1: That's a horse dad and almost like a two caring dad,
Speaker 1: like it's a very worrisome dad about his kids and
Speaker 1: forties to fifties. And I was like, that's me. So
Speaker 1: they brought they gave me some lines. I send them
Speaker 1: whatever you know they asked for. I haven't heard anything back,
Speaker 1: but it's been a couple of weeks.
Speaker 5: Would you like to run them by?
Speaker 8: Butch?
Speaker 1: Sure? The lines?
Speaker 8: Yeah, you got the lines? Right here, let me pull
Speaker 8: them off. And it's a horse. Now, are we supposed
Speaker 8: to be going for comedy here? Is just like supposed
Speaker 8: to be really sincere? What did they ask you?
Speaker 1: They said that the horse is just worried about his
Speaker 1: kids at all times. Got it?
Speaker 8: So I can see some comedy in that little over,
Speaker 8: little little neurotic. Okay, okay, okay, I see a little neurotic.
Speaker 5: Don't give him tips. He already lunchbox. You're not Butcher's boss.
Speaker 8: He's not the boss.
Speaker 5: No, he's not the boss. Butch. What do you love
Speaker 5: in La?
Speaker 8: I do live in La.
Speaker 5: Do you start in a studio?
Speaker 8: I did start in a studio.
Speaker 5: And so now what does that mean for you? Are
Speaker 5: you now creating?
Speaker 8: And have everybody creating a whole bunch of brand new stuff?
Speaker 8: And I got some brand new shows. We have one
Speaker 8: that's on Angel Studios right now. It's a cartoon called
Speaker 8: the Garden Cartoon that teaches kids the Bible, which is
Speaker 8: real exciting. So you guys can see that on Angel Studios.
Speaker 8: But I got I left Nickeloading in twenty eighteen to
Speaker 8: do my own stuff. So we have a whole bunch
Speaker 8: of new ip coming out pretty soon.
Speaker 5: When you say Angel Studios, how do we find that?
Speaker 8: It's on the Angel Studios platform. Angel Studios they were
Speaker 8: best known for the Chosen So we can download the app,
Speaker 8: Download the app, download the platform, and one of the
Speaker 8: biggest out there in the family market. It's really really
Speaker 8: fun because there's a lot of platforms out there right
Speaker 8: now that have some family friendly stuff in them, but
Speaker 8: Angel's pretty much one family friendly.
Speaker 4: No surprises, pretty much the kids no surprises.
Speaker 8: Yeah, well, my goal is to make sure kids have
Speaker 8: a safe place to go, but an entertaining place to
Speaker 8: go too. That's what I'm trying to do, all right, Eddie,
Speaker 8: are we ready with your audition?
Speaker 1: I got the line?
Speaker 8: Okay, one line? Yes.
Speaker 1: So the kid is leaving and they're about.
Speaker 8: To the horse. Kid is leaving the horsehouse, correct, Okay,
Speaker 8: the dad is worried about that horse. Dad's worried.
Speaker 1: Yes, Okay, here's here's the here's my performance.
Speaker 8: Okay, is there a drum roll or something we could
Speaker 8: play like?
Speaker 5: Either for sure is right? Would you mind hitting something.
Speaker 8: Kind of a drummer?
Speaker 9: So?
Speaker 1: What about your royal duties? I feel like you're gonna
Speaker 1: leave and just forget all about us.
Speaker 8: Not bad at all.
Speaker 5: He said, what was he?
Speaker 9: You know?
Speaker 8: Well, that's a good question, I think.
Speaker 4: Perplexed.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I did not want her to leave.
Speaker 5: There was a nuance to it.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'd probably have to hear a couple more lines
Speaker 8: to get a feel for this horse character. Does he
Speaker 8: have a name?
Speaker 1: His name is Nightlight.
Speaker 8: I love that.
Speaker 5: Are there more lines, Eddie?
Speaker 8: Yeah, I have to listen to the audio because all
Speaker 8: I have is my ring. Like you said, why don't
Speaker 8: you just improv Yeah, I'll give you a line. Okay,
Speaker 8: b about your old duties? Like, how about you can't leave?
Speaker 8: All the plants are gonna die? Say that? Love it? Well,
Speaker 8: you can't leave. I mean all the plants are to die. Bigger,
Speaker 8: make it bigger.
Speaker 5: Come on, you can't leave. The plants die.
Speaker 8: I put a few tears in there, like Bill Murray
Speaker 8: would do.
Speaker 1: If you can't leave, I mean the plants they're all
Speaker 1: gonna die.
Speaker 8: And see there we go. Now we're getting this really
Speaker 8: good man. He's got energy surrounded by talent.
Speaker 5: This is think of creating talent.
Speaker 8: Well, Angel studios, No, but it's funny when if you
Speaker 8: if you can create a great character with that voice
Speaker 8: like that, I mean think about SpongeBob. Oh my gosh,
Speaker 8: mister Crabs. You know, if you could do a voice
Speaker 8: like that and just really make that character come to life,
Speaker 8: that's something that you can really build on for decades
Speaker 8: if you can really really nail it.
Speaker 5: See that's what I feel like with Angel Studios and
Speaker 5: the content you're creating that kids now need more of
Speaker 5: that type of content, like safe, clean content.
Speaker 8: Here's what I think. I think. You know, look, I'm
Speaker 8: I'm a Christian guy, and I don't ever want anyone
Speaker 8: to think I'm trying to, you know, make sure you're
Speaker 8: you're a Christian or anything. But I do stuff where
Speaker 8: I I want to make sure that the end of
Speaker 8: the day, I feel good about what I put out
Speaker 8: out there. There's a ton of kids that won't never
Speaker 8: go into a church, but they're all going to have
Speaker 8: a phone to look at, and you know who's putting
Speaker 8: stuff on that screen. So I'm to make sure at
Speaker 8: least I can put a healthy option on the screen
Speaker 8: and something that's uplifting for kids and families. Because as
Speaker 8: a parent, I have two daughters they're grown up now,
Speaker 8: but now I have a granddaughter, So what is she
Speaker 8: going to watch? Right hopefully the Princess Show and Horse Dad.
Speaker 8: I think Horse Dad becomes a series and we just
Speaker 8: call it no horse Dad. It's a fun of your title.
Speaker 5: Princes, the Princess and the horse Dad. Who wouldn't watch that?
Speaker 5: I would watch that? Man.
Speaker 1: How's it going?
Speaker 5: I've got my ticket to l A and.
Speaker 8: Are you ready to audition? Oh my gosh, I'll just
Speaker 8: move there with I should draw a horse Dad. By
Speaker 8: the way, while we're sitting, all right, who's your character?
Speaker 5: Who's I listen?
Speaker 7: Man, I'm open. I'm an open book. Whatever you need
Speaker 7: me to do, I can adapt see them. They are pigeonholed,
Speaker 7: like he's like.
Speaker 5: I have one character. I can come in say they
Speaker 5: had one character. Literally, were just doing a character just
Speaker 5: off the cuff, was a Princes.
Speaker 8: Yeah you did great?
Speaker 5: So yeah, I mean, what what do you want? You want?
Speaker 5: Angry Dad? You want? What do you want me to be?
Speaker 8: I think, just going by who you are already, I
Speaker 8: would never want to pull you down because that energy
Speaker 8: is great. I think you're like a tiger. That's a
Speaker 8: gym coach. That's what I think you're like. You're like
Speaker 8: all right, everybody today it's dodgeball Okay, we're playing dodgeball.
Speaker 5: To give me a line. You tell me the concept.
Speaker 8: You're a tiger gym coach and you're announcing it's dodgeball
Speaker 8: and you're picking teams. Here we go, ready, one, two, three.
Speaker 10: Little Jimmy and Sally and Susie. Guess what today is.
Speaker 10: It's dodgeball. Jimmy, you're over there, boys versus girls. You
Speaker 10: know why boys rule and girls?
Speaker 8: WHOA, that's amazing. That's amazing. Man, that was epics. See
Speaker 8: I could draw that character in two seconds. That's great.
Speaker 5: I gave him something to work could. To be fair,
Speaker 5: you did create the character right.
Speaker 8: In front of Yeah, yeah, yeah, he did the tiger
Speaker 8: Jim coach. That's for you can see it. Can you
Speaker 8: see the tiger Jym coach?
Speaker 4: Though?
Speaker 5: You sure can see a tiger Jim coach. I saw
Speaker 5: a horse dad and no guns right on them. Let's
Speaker 5: focus on me.
Speaker 8: Now, Yeah, well I can focus on all three of you.
Speaker 5: I thought all three of you guys did a great.
Speaker 8: John and the lovely princess who's just trying to make
Speaker 8: the story end, Well, you're struggling and you run into
Speaker 8: these fairy tale characters who do not want to go
Speaker 8: along with the story. That's what happens.
Speaker 5: Why are you in town here? What are you doing?
Speaker 8: We're at the NRB Convention, National Religious Broadcasters Convention. I'm
Speaker 8: announcing but Hartman Studios there and so.
Speaker 5: We're Oh, this is a whole new like everybody, I'm
Speaker 5: doing it.
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, we have a huge booth and everything. It's massive.
Speaker 8: Announce eight new shows. Yes, you're in luck.
Speaker 4: I think we're all Christians here, we are.
Speaker 5: I'm a big cat.
Speaker 1: I love to stop by the booth.
Speaker 8: Yes, you have gu fleck before you come in. You
Speaker 8: gotta get it, Yeah, John, exactly, Yeah, see your favorite
Speaker 8: scription before.
Speaker 5: Do you feel do you feel there's like a changing
Speaker 5: aesthetic in animation that you either have to lead and
Speaker 5: change that aesthetic or do you like see what other
Speaker 5: people are drawing and then try to chase that at times?
Speaker 8: You know, it's interesting. I think the what's going on
Speaker 8: in animation right now? I think I think parents want
Speaker 8: to feel like they can put the phone in front
Speaker 8: of their kids and just walk away and take a
Speaker 8: breather for a minute. There's so many things out there
Speaker 8: that are negative right now. That's unfortunate. So I think
Speaker 8: really parents are looking for a great place to put
Speaker 8: their kids. Kids are looking for something entertaining that doesn't
Speaker 8: feel like it's too boring or that their mom and
Speaker 8: dad are making them watch. I mean, I just want
Speaker 8: to create great characters that kids can fall in love
Speaker 8: with and want to watch again, over and over and
Speaker 8: over again. And that's what that's my job. I did
Speaker 8: it for twenty years in Nickelodeon. We're doing it with
Speaker 8: a new studio now and I'm having a blast doing it.
Speaker 8: But I do think that we as the filmmakers have
Speaker 8: to really be responsible what we put on that screen.
Speaker 8: That's my that's my advice. Where'd you grow up, Michigan?
Speaker 5: And so you moved to la and was the dream
Speaker 5: to be in artists?
Speaker 8: Yeah? I moved to La. This is back in the
Speaker 8: eighties now, prior to the internet. So I had to like,
Speaker 8: you know, fill out an envelope and put my portfolio
Speaker 8: on a may in an envelope and send it to
Speaker 8: cal Arts. So I went to cal Arts and Valencia,
Speaker 8: and that was the only school in the country that
Speaker 8: was teaching animation at the time. And so I went
Speaker 8: out there in the eighties and kind of never looked back.
Speaker 8: I just loved California state out there. I always wanted
Speaker 8: to work for Disney, but I never did end up
Speaker 8: going to the TV.
Speaker 5: Did you ever get on a game show? Good question,
Speaker 5: because he tried. He tried to get on a game show.
Speaker 5: They didn't put him on too much.
Speaker 8: I can't. I got You've got it clear now it's
Speaker 8: Tiger Tiger Tiger co coach. I was on two game shows.
Speaker 8: That's so funny, as you would a Yeah, I was
Speaker 8: on two game shows. Yeah, and I won, actually seventeen
Speaker 8: thousand dollars you want, I don't have it with me, guys,
Speaker 8: calm down, So I spent it already, all right, I
Speaker 8: spent the money. No, I was on two game shows.
Speaker 8: One was called Body Language, where I had to act
Speaker 8: out charades and like guests clues. The other one was
Speaker 8: called The Match Game Hollywood Squares Hour. They took these
Speaker 8: two game shows to combine them to But I was
Speaker 8: in LA for like two weeks and got on that
Speaker 8: game show and won like two grand on that game show.
Speaker 8: I was. I was eighteen years old.
Speaker 5: What advice? Because he went and spent a week off
Speaker 5: the show. Yeah, trying to get on prices, right, you
Speaker 5: let him do that I did because he just wants
Speaker 5: to do it. And then but they never put him on.
Speaker 5: The energy you had didn't put you. Yeah, it was
Speaker 5: a bad one, man. I don't know what happened. I
Speaker 5: felt like maybe the first day I went a little
Speaker 5: too over the top, yeah, and was just talking to everybody,
Speaker 5: was up.
Speaker 7: In everybody's business and like, So then I kind of
Speaker 7: tried to calm it. I tried to go for Valentine's Day,
Speaker 7: but I didn't have a couple, so they wouldn't let
Speaker 7: me on then. And then so the third day I
Speaker 7: tried to be a little more calm and reserved.
Speaker 5: That didn't work either.
Speaker 8: That's a great story. Who didn't love that story? Did
Speaker 8: you guys love that story?
Speaker 4: It was a great storyline for Yeah, that's a.
Speaker 8: Great cartoon story right there. I think they want like
Speaker 8: housewives though, and things like that on prices, right maybe, yeah,
Speaker 8: maybe I could be wrong. I don't produce it, but
Speaker 8: I think your energy is great. Maybe they were just
Speaker 8: looking for different energy that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was just a bad day, man.
Speaker 8: Do you even know any prices? If I threw things
Speaker 8: up here which you've been able to get, man, I'm
Speaker 8: great at everything, really, I thought, okay, well I should
Speaker 8: have known.
Speaker 5: I can't tell you how much your jacket is, or
Speaker 5: your shoes or your watch because it looks all expensive.
Speaker 5: But if it's cheap, I know what it is.
Speaker 4: Like a carton of milk. Heinos.
Speaker 5: Yeah, wow, okay, it's carton out like five. I have
Speaker 5: no idea't even know if that gallon. We'll see the
Speaker 5: garden cartoon, Yes, serious, tell me about that garden cartoon.
Speaker 5: Thank you for asking. When I first up Nickelodeon, I wanted.
Speaker 8: I've been developing this cartoon for years, but Nickelodeon would
Speaker 8: never make it, only because they would never make a
Speaker 8: Christian cartoon. I had a great time at Nickelodeon, but
Speaker 8: they just weren't into making that kind of stuff. So
Speaker 8: I was I was developing. I was developing this stuff,
Speaker 8: this cartoon, the Garden Cartoon, for years, and I ended
Speaker 8: up making it on my own. It's about a little
Speaker 8: lion named Lenny a little lamb named Lucy, and they
Speaker 8: live and work in a miraculous garden. And every day
Speaker 8: God comes down as a rainbow and gives them an
Speaker 8: assignment and they have to do it, and through a
Speaker 8: song or a scripture they learn how to do it,
Speaker 8: but they normally don't do it as well as they should,
Speaker 8: so they have a great time learning. Uh, the show
Speaker 8: is funny first, I wanted to make it. It's basically
Speaker 8: fairly odd parents with scripture, and I wanted to make
Speaker 8: it funny and make it like something that you know,
Speaker 8: kids could be entertained by first before they got a
Speaker 8: lesson out of it. So I think it's great. It's
Speaker 8: on Angel Studios now. We got twenty half hours we
Speaker 8: made and it's just been a blast to make.
Speaker 5: You work with your wife.
Speaker 8: I work with my wife, Julienne, who is the love
Speaker 8: of my life. Thirty four years I've been married.
Speaker 5: And so what is her role?
Speaker 8: She is my number one, my main motivator in life.
Speaker 8: And she also handles all the money. So be nice
Speaker 8: to my wife. She handles all the money, got it,
Speaker 8: She's the one.
Speaker 5: Okay, how cool would it be to play God? Like
Speaker 5: anybody that says that, be afraid of them? How cool?
Speaker 5: I'm afraid of people to say that someone runs into
Speaker 5: at a party. So what do you do for a living? Oh,
Speaker 5: I'm on the you know garden cartoon? What Yeah, I'm
Speaker 5: the voice of God? I mean, how cool?
Speaker 8: Does that sound You could be God's brother. Yeah, yeah, Jerry,
Speaker 8: God's brother, God's brother Jerry. Who's Harry.
Speaker 5: Jerry's better than Ryde. I've yeah gotten ride. I'll be
Speaker 5: there man.
Speaker 8: Yeah, but now you'd be great on a voice. As
Speaker 8: a voice on that, I think all of you guys
Speaker 8: would do. We could have the horse Goal, you could
Speaker 8: have the Princess. Of course. The girl who plays Lucy
Speaker 8: the Lamb is a lot like you. She has a
Speaker 8: really nice feminine voice and she's very Yeah, she's so cute.
Speaker 5: Like the Lamb.
Speaker 8: Yeah. That much a great show. It's all over the place,
Speaker 8: and we had a great time making it. But that's
Speaker 8: one of those things where I had to not just
Speaker 8: learn how to do that. It was already I already
Speaker 8: knew how to make the show, but then distributing the show,
Speaker 8: getting it out in the world, I had to learn
Speaker 8: all that stuff because when you have your own studio,
Speaker 8: you gotta buy all the supplies and and hire all
Speaker 8: the people and all that stuff. So I've been really
Speaker 8: elevated to a different level, which I think God's really
Speaker 8: shown favor in my life in that way because I've
Speaker 8: had to learn a lot.
Speaker 5: Did you do any of the voices on Fairly Odd Parents.
Speaker 8: I did one doctor he's he's the fairy Doctor's name
Speaker 8: was doctor Rip Studwell. And doctor Rip Studwell is a
Speaker 8: handsome fairy doctor who also plays one on TV. And
Speaker 8: so he would come in and uh and he would
Speaker 8: do he would be like, well, this is terrible. What's wrong,
Speaker 8: doctor rip Studwell? My head shots came out horrible? You
Speaker 8: know that type of thing, you know, So he's not
Speaker 8: really focused on the mission at hand.
Speaker 5: Whenever you have a show that is picked up by
Speaker 5: a network, do they order four episodes, ten episodes? And
Speaker 5: when does it go from This is something that we
Speaker 5: are going to really settle in with and this is
Speaker 5: going to be a show for a long time.
Speaker 8: It really depends on the audience. Depends if the audience
Speaker 8: wants to wants to watch it anymore. You know, back
Speaker 8: in the day at Nickelodeon, we were getting a thing
Speaker 8: called ratings. You guys know what ratings are, obviously you're
Speaker 8: you're in radio. So we would get ratings every week,
Speaker 8: and like, let's say, back in the day, a good
Speaker 8: rating was a five. Fairly Our Parents was getting like
Speaker 8: tens and elevens back then, So Nickelodeon is like, yeah,
Speaker 8: we need to keep picking this show up. And there
Speaker 8: were cond of times where we would beat SpongeBob in
Speaker 8: the ratings and stuff like that. I mean, SpongeBob's an
Speaker 8: awesome show, but we would sometimes meet it in the ratings,
Speaker 8: so they knew they had a hit on their hands,
Speaker 8: which was really cool.
Speaker 5: I'm assuming you're still getting paid handsomely because they're still
Speaker 5: running it.
Speaker 8: I don't know our the word handsomely, but yeah, we
Speaker 8: do get stay. Yeah, we do get paid. No, we
Speaker 8: definitely get paid for sure. But that's one of the
Speaker 8: things too. I mean, you get to create a show,
Speaker 8: you get to get paid to do it. It's a
Speaker 8: wonderful thing. You do get residuals, you do get things
Speaker 8: in the future that add up, which is really really great.
Speaker 8: That's why people come to Hollywood. They want to you know,
Speaker 8: that's a very lucrative reward if you can make it work.
Speaker 8: But like, it takes a lot. I'd always tell people, like,
Speaker 8: selling a show is like throwing a dart through a donut,
Speaker 8: but the donuts on a Merry go round. It's all
Speaker 8: just got to line up perfectly. But you got to
Speaker 8: keep throwing and you got to keep trying, because if
Speaker 8: you don't keep trying, you're never gonna make it happen
Speaker 8: in the first place.
Speaker 5: In Hollywood, do you sometimes not say what you do
Speaker 5: because you know people are then always going to try
Speaker 5: to impress you by doing what they think you want
Speaker 5: them to do to get a job.
Speaker 8: I mean, like if I walk into a room and
Speaker 8: people start doing voices for me like that, that's like
Speaker 8: that kind of a thing I would know, who would
Speaker 8: ever do?
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 8: Sometimes I actually like telling people what I do because
Speaker 8: nobody expects it. It's like, what do you do? I'm
Speaker 8: a lawyer, What do you do? I'm I work in medicine.
Speaker 1: What do you do?
Speaker 8: I draw cartoons? Everyone goes, what what do you mean
Speaker 8: to draw cartoons? Tell me more? And I say, I
Speaker 8: do the fairly outparts and they go, what you gotta
Speaker 8: be killed? So that's it's always kind of fun to
Speaker 8: spring that out, which is good. And I get recognized
Speaker 8: that a lot of Starbucks too, which is very interesting
Speaker 8: because that that that that age range, that gen Z
Speaker 8: millennial age range is people that kind of grew up
Speaker 8: with my show. So I have a lot of Starbucks
Speaker 8: coffee cups with my pictures drawn on then they'll draw
Speaker 8: characters for me. That's so cool.
Speaker 5: Okay, everybody can ask one final question to Butch. I
Speaker 5: know you're all sitting here.
Speaker 8: We have any questions?
Speaker 5: Yes, I do have one hundred, so I'm gonna give
Speaker 5: them one first.
Speaker 4: Well have you ever had a fish character or do
Speaker 4: you have a fish character coming up? Because something that
Speaker 4: I said, well even on the radio fifteen twenty years ago,
Speaker 4: was I always wanted to be the voice of a fish.
Speaker 4: I don't know why. I have no idea. It's just
Speaker 4: something that has come out from time to time. So
Speaker 4: it sort of like it's just like, could it be
Speaker 4: your Christian faith? Oh yeah, fish? Like you know, growing
Speaker 4: up my mom got the fish magnet on her car. Yes, yes,
Speaker 4: of course.
Speaker 5: So I don't know.
Speaker 4: It's just one of those things where you look back
Speaker 4: and it's like, oh wow. I kind of manifested that
Speaker 4: because it happens like I always said I wanted to
Speaker 4: be in a Hallmark Christmas movie, and then I landed
Speaker 4: a role on a Christmas movie on HBO Mount Thank you.
Speaker 4: My big scene was in the bathroom.
Speaker 8: That's amazing. I thought he would say something like that.
Speaker 5: It was with the main I thought I would have
Speaker 5: that too.
Speaker 8: It's the bathroom for sure.
Speaker 4: The director said, this is a pivotal moment. This was
Speaker 4: like it was when the main character like shifted because
Speaker 4: of my scene. So you know, that was my moment there.
Speaker 4: But that happened, so I sort of said it on
Speaker 4: air and then things just started to happen. It took years.
Speaker 8: So that is a fish character. Unfairly odd parents because
Speaker 8: the fairies would turn into fish when they were in
Speaker 8: Timmy's bedroom, they would they were fairies, but then when
Speaker 8: the parents would come in, they would disguise themselves as
Speaker 8: fish and being a fishbowl. So I guess that characters
Speaker 8: would turn into fish.
Speaker 5: Yeah, did you have a fish character in mind? Amy?
Speaker 4: It was really I just it could be any kind
Speaker 4: of fish, and it's sort of just something I've even said.
Speaker 8: Casually and buzzing like Finding Nemo.
Speaker 4: Oh, I loved Finding Nemo right there. Great movie. So anyway,
Speaker 4: if you if if you have a fish character.
Speaker 5: You liked, audition for it. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I would love the opportunity to audition. If a fish fisheah,
Speaker 4: write down or where's the post it?
Speaker 8: I can give you my I'm gonna write down fish characters.
Speaker 8: There's a line real quick and you say, I want
Speaker 8: you give me a laugh and say, oh the bubbles
Speaker 8: tickle ready one too great?
Speaker 5: That go.
Speaker 4: The bubbles tickle.
Speaker 8: Beautiful job.
Speaker 5: I want to catch it. That was so good. Wow,
Speaker 5: I love that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, just throw me back though, Eddie.
Speaker 1: Okay, So, but this is a real question. I'm not
Speaker 1: trying to like you know, I don't believe you true
Speaker 1: true question. Okay, how does someone audition for you? Like,
Speaker 1: is there open casting calls? And then how many do
Speaker 1: you get? You get like thousands of people, and how
Speaker 1: do you swift through all that?
Speaker 8: Now, you you, as a voice actor, have to create
Speaker 8: a what's known as a real a sample version of
Speaker 8: all your voices about a two minute reel, and then
Speaker 8: that gets taken to an agent and that agent puts
Speaker 8: it into a file and then when the casting call
Speaker 8: comes through, the agent sees it and they will then
Speaker 8: look at your reel and then they'll decide whether or
Speaker 8: not you're good enough for the role. So out of
Speaker 8: the thousand that try, they'll shift it down to about ten,
Speaker 8: and I'll get those ten and then I'll pick one
Speaker 8: out of the ten. It's a very very competitive field.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 1: Have you ever hired someone and then halfway through the
Speaker 1: production being like, it's just not gonna work. Yeah.
Speaker 8: Today, As a matter of fact, this morning, I was
Speaker 8: going to hire you, but I have to twitch. I'm sorry,
Speaker 8: I have to change.
Speaker 6: No, no, no no.
Speaker 8: I have many times you hire somebody, think they're great,
Speaker 8: and for some reason the day of the recording, it
Speaker 8: just doesn't work out. For some reason. There's been celebrities
Speaker 8: I've worked with when you get this great celebrity voice
Speaker 8: coming in and then for some reason they get behind
Speaker 8: the mic and it's really weird when they're not in
Speaker 8: front of a camera. Being in front of a cameras
Speaker 8: different than being behind a mic, and so it's just
Speaker 8: different for them. And so sometimes they just don't bring
Speaker 8: it and you have to kind of you have to
Speaker 8: you let them do it, and then you kind of
Speaker 8: change them up at the end. So yeah, we've had
Speaker 8: sadly we've had to do that sometimes.
Speaker 5: Lunchbox, your final question, Yeah, but nice beating you. Thanks
Speaker 5: for coming. Man.
Speaker 7: I just want to say, uh, just let me get
Speaker 7: jot down your number and your email so we can
Speaker 7: skip through all the agents and all that.
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, now that we know each other. You kind
Speaker 5: of know what I have.
Speaker 8: We know each other really well now exactly.
Speaker 5: Super if you.
Speaker 7: Could just shoot me over your email and your phone
Speaker 7: number and that way you've lines you want me to
Speaker 7: you know, test out, drop them to me and I'll
Speaker 7: send them back.
Speaker 8: My email is don't email me at hart and.
Speaker 4: Yeah, wait in the real how many voices you say
Speaker 4: they send a real with all their voices?
Speaker 8: Like, what's the idea whenever your ranges. If you can
Speaker 8: do five voices, you can do ten. Just make sure
Speaker 8: it sounds like it. I always say, write a scene
Speaker 8: where like five people are talking to each other, and
Speaker 8: do that scene all the five, all.
Speaker 5: The different basically Eddie Murphy in uh yeah, doctor doctor
Speaker 5: do little, all the characters do.
Speaker 8: Little, or or a nutty profession that one too. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 8: but you can do whatever voices you can do. Let's
Speaker 8: hear it, because it's gonna really it's going to depend
Speaker 8: on whether I go, oh that's really cool. I could
Speaker 8: use that, you know. And also it's connections to who
Speaker 8: you know. Sometimes I know you now, So that's what
Speaker 8: I'll give you my really email.
Speaker 5: Later on, I want to go to Mike d. Mike
Speaker 5: D is our animation expert here, Mike, you have really okay.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I was a part of that demographic that millennial
Speaker 12: watch that show all all the time. Did you ever
Speaker 12: get a note of like you were maybe making a
Speaker 12: character turned into something like the Fairly Odd Parents And
Speaker 12: Nickeolodey was like, man, you can't do that.
Speaker 8: We never well, the fairies could turn into things on
Speaker 8: the show, as you know, and we never got a
Speaker 8: note on that. But we did want to do a
Speaker 8: show once where we wrote a script. Timmy wanted to
Speaker 8: know where babies come from, and so we wrote this
Speaker 8: whole episode if they go to the stork factory up
Speaker 8: and up in the clouds, right, and so we had
Speaker 8: all these storks, these different babies, conveyor belts and all this,
Speaker 8: but it was really funny story. They said, you can't
Speaker 8: do that story. We can't do where the babies come from?
Speaker 8: And I said, why not? We do all these other things.
Speaker 8: So that was one story we couldn't do. But other
Speaker 8: than that other changing into things, we kept it pretty clean. Mostly.
Speaker 8: You know, we kind of knew where our line was.
Speaker 8: I mean because we were working in kids TV, so
Speaker 8: we knew we couldn't do all stuff let's say like
Speaker 8: a Rick and Morty episode or like, you know, a
Speaker 8: South Park episode. We couldn't go there with that kind
Speaker 8: of humor, but we have a lot of jokes that
Speaker 8: that kids like your age now go, I get all
Speaker 8: those jokes I didn't get when I was a kid.
Speaker 8: You know, the adults get them now. So it's it
Speaker 8: was pretty fun doing that.
Speaker 12: And then oh sorry, Oh I'm not like these guys.
Speaker 12: I don't want to get into voice acting, but I
Speaker 12: love drawing. Like during the show, I'll make like little
Speaker 12: doodles over here, Like what is your advice is if
Speaker 12: they make a reel? Like what do you do as
Speaker 12: an animator?
Speaker 8: Same thing? You have a portfolio and let me see
Speaker 8: what you can do. Let me see your drawings, let
Speaker 8: me see how let me see your cartoon stuff, let
Speaker 8: me see your realistic stuff, your life drawing stuff. Because
Speaker 8: if I'm gonna hire you as an artist, You've got
Speaker 8: to be able to draw my stuff. Like I said,
Speaker 8: Remember I said about making your life easier. You know
Speaker 8: you need to make my life easier. Like, you know,
Speaker 8: can I what's your name, Mike, Mike? I guess it?
Speaker 8: Can Mike draw this? Can Mike do this? Okay, Oh, Mike,
Speaker 8: give that to Mike. Mike can do that. That's what
Speaker 8: I want. That's the kind of guy I want to hire.
Speaker 8: You know, I want to hire Mike. Is Mike can
Speaker 8: draw that. But if Mike draws it messes it up
Speaker 8: and then Butcher has to draw it. It's like, why
Speaker 8: is Mike here? What is Mike doing here? Good point
Speaker 8: that type of this means drawing, by the way, when
Speaker 8: I do this.
Speaker 5: So the Garden cartoons streaming on Angel Studios, and I
Speaker 5: guess I have Apple TV and Roku. I can just
