Speaker 1

Welcome up. So forty four the Bobby Cast here on Monday. Monday, Ye, Monday, So Mike d over there on Bobby. Um. You know what's funny, we did the last Bobby Cast without I guess, and I thought, that's gonna hate this one. I actually didn't, you know. I was surprised that there were so many people that were like, hey, I actually like both versions. But when you guys were just talking and then when

you're not so um. We have rescheduled Shane mcinally, who's a huge rider, written a ton of songs for this week, so that will be Thursday. Yeah, um right, yep, yep. Making sure your Mike people complain we can't hear you, So that would be Thursday. So I thought we'd hop on and uh do another one to kind of catch up with some things. By the way, Mike d as the the freshest haircut of the week. I don't think so, is it me? Oh? How much does your hair cut cost?

You have a spell one stylist that you go to, or do you go to a place. I go to a place that I like everybody there. But the last girl who did it was the one who's done in the past. Couple of times, do you learn because Mike has this thing going where he shaved the size of the heads are is really short, and he takes it and he takes the top and pushes it all over to the right. Don't wave now? Do you have them

teach you how to do that? Yeah? Like the first time I went there, they kind of styled it that way, and then I just asked for the same thing every time you asked for the waves. Yeah, and they know what the wave there and look at you. It was funny, like for me if you were to ask me, like, who were the funniest people on the planet, Like right now, in my mind, it's Chris Rock, Ricky Gervais and Adam Krola. Like to me, those are the funniest people. Like that

exists to me, right, you know, from from everything. And it was three years ago, I guess yesterday the day before that, you was to the picture of you with Adam Carolla because you're also a big Adam Crowla fan, and that's the picture that started your weight loss. And it is crazy and I bring up your hair because he's like a whole different person now, but it's crazy

to look at you. Then what you do. You know what you aid, I was like to eighty five, eight five, eight to eighty Yeah, it's crazy, Like that picture of you with Adam Carola from three years ago to today, it's like a different person. It's like I barely remember that person that I was like, yeah, come on and you can intern for the show. I have no idea who that person was anymore. It's weird to look at. And I know we talked about that on the last one,

but you posted that picture again. That's Adam Crawler retweeted and I was like, that's cool that you retweeted it. So yeah, I can go out and that you thought that was cool though, too, right. Yeah, like I got the notification of my phoo. Adam Carola just tweeted me. Yeah, because Adam, I mean, I think Adam role is both of our one of our favorite people. Like it's always so funny. Uh. Let me say this sleep number is one of the sponsors of the Bobby Cast. We appreciate them.

I have a sleeping bed like eight feet from where I am right now in the room right next door to this because I do this this Bobby Cast from upstairs in my house. It's not my living room, which some people will say that when they're talking about it, but it's it's a bedroom. Remind me, after I talked about sleep number for a second, I gotta talk about doing Clay Travis this show this morning because people are and then how I do both shows at the same time.

That became like the controversial thing online today, my sleep sleeping number red. I have to get good sleep, you know, I wake up early early, obviously, and it is important to me and to you hopefully as a healthy lifestyle or balanced diet, a regular exercise, and if you're not sleeping your best, it's probably time to replace your mattress. And a sleep number store. You go in and I went in and I laid on the bed and what happens is you lay there and you look up. Have

you ever been a sleep number store? And you look at do you have some number? Red? Do you have the one when you stay here? Is that a sleep number? The one here? You? Okay? Um? And so you lay on and it shows like your back and your neck on this screen, this computer screen. It's okay. They're like, hey, they can tell why you're kind of messed up. So they give you a sleep number that is like your ideal comfort. My sleep numbers at thirty. My sleep I Q last night was like I don't I forget to

look probably usually high eighties or something. So going to a sleep number store, say four and the most popular P five Queen mattress you'll find any of the five D sleeping restore nationwide. You can only get a sleep number at the sleepumber store. Okay, sput that out sleep at number store eight, next bed, and be sure to tell them that you heard it here on the Bobby Cast, Bobby Bone Show. Whatever you want to say, it's all

giving me. So there's that. Um okay, So this morning during the show, I always like to give people kind of behind the scenes that I don't want to go into, like the minutition of how the morning show works on the morning show, because I feel like there are other things to talk about and we don't get his long form to talk about. But so I went during our show this morning and did another radio show while our show was happening, and people were like, wait, how did

that happen? Are you lying? Are you know? What happened? Was? We planned it out because I started Clay Travis is one of my favorite sports radio guys. Uh. He lives here in Nashville. And I used to hate the guy. I was just I was just like, man, this dude's a total like douche nothing. Now the reason I hated him as the reason I think it's really fantastic at

what he does. He just makes you feel something. Who cares love or hey, you're just like, oh man, that guy really out there gets on my nerves sometimes or and other times I really like him because he's just fantastic at radio and I hardly ever, I sometimes agree with sometimes don't, but I respect the fact that he makes me feel things. It's like Charlottagne, Like I don't always greet with Charlottegne, but I'm like, man, he gets under and he's one of my best friends. It's like

best friends, like best radio friends. It's like he either um, he makes you feel so thing and so click Travis and I become friends. And so he's like, hey, come over and do the show because Arkansas lost last night. That was a rough one for me. Um. And so what happened was a little big town song. Now better Man is over a four minute song, and we went from a little big town better Man into a four

minute commercial break. I had eight minutes, So as soon as I hit that song, I went three doors over and hopped into a studio and did a seven and a half minute or so segment, and they came right back and hopped right back on the air. There were no bells on whistles to that except timing, because we said okay, Morgan ran over and talked to the producer and she said, hey, Bobby can come over at seven oh eight. Like gets down to the minute that much.

And so I posted a picture on Instagram of me and Clay Travis the studio this morning Outkicked Coverage his show OutKick, and he has the Outkicked Coverage website, and people were like, oh, if he's not even there today, Oh he's doing another show, how is this live? No? No, No, it's just timing. There are times we record things and sometimes I'm wondering, like, you know, should I even say that this is recorded? Or if you don't know what's recorded,

is there a difference? Like if I'm watching an episode on TV and I don't know what's to rerun. To me, it's still new, So why would I even want to know for my own good It's like, why would even want to know it's a rerun if I'm enjoying it, if I feel like it's the first time, Like let's

say you were a girl bad one. Um. So sometimes if we have to fly out early, like let's say I have like tomorrow because say it's money tomorrow, you and I have to leave it like nine twenty or something to we have a flight to go to New York because I have dinner with the CEO or a company, and so I have to record a segment, maybe two segments for that late nine o'clock nine to ten. Some of our affiliates don't even run the last hour of

the show. But I don't feel like I need to come on and go, hey, this is a recorded segment, but we recorded it like thirty minutes ago. So it's just that thing where we're not trying to fool anyone, but it's I think if you don't know, you probably enjoy it more with it you're feeling like it's live. And that's always been my like when some of the huge artists come through and they only have X amount of time, or if my schedule is crazy and I only have X amount of time, maybe in the afternoon.

Sometimes on interviews, will go up and record them. We'll present them like they're new. Not most of the time, but sometimes if it's a big enough start to do that with because if it's either my fault or their fault with time, because I want to get them on and so we'll go up and record it. And I could come on and go, hey, we recorded this, but I always feel like one that's waste of time and too it makes people feel like, oh, almost onto a

recorded interview, and that's just me making that decision. I think it's just a style thing, you know, like the you know, the Breakfast Club for example, they have there and they have a great show that they're the hip hop show. Talk about them all the time. They're the equivalent to us in country, not the ground. I think we're great, but they're like, they're the big hip hop show. We're the big country show. Elvis Durrand's the big top

forties show. UM different formats, um, Enrique Santos, um. So what they do is all of their artists come in the day before and they record them and they record a promo on their phones to go, and you know, it's like Kevin Hartson. He goes, hey, I'll be on tomorrow. Well, Kevin hart didn't come by just to record that promo on the phone. He was actually doing the interview and

they presented as live. But it's just it's and I don't think theyre trying to fool anybody, and we don't either, but sometimes I'm just like, you know, I think it's just a better a better listening experience. If you don't know, you just feel like it's there. So yeah, that's the truth of it. It was live, um, and there you go, the end. The controversy is over. And it's not that we're trying to for Onyboddy. I just think the listening experiences better. So that was one one of the things

this morning that happened. UM. Also, Eddie called out Nada for going on another podcast. Who are also my friends and they do a podcast in Seattle, Carla, Marie and Anthony, and she was talking about being really really really really really good friends with Ed sharing for off and on for two and a half years. She would never say that on our show. I tried to get her a couple I was like, hey, because I knew, but I respect somebody's privacy, like that. I was like, hey, now

did you do that? Never date? No? Okay? Well, and I wasn't even gonna say anything about it, but Eddie said something about it, and then I noticed she posted on her Facebook page too, and so I let Eddie kind of throw her under the bus. It was during that segment of throwing to the bus this morning, But so there was that he had. I mean, ed right now, it is the biggest pop store in the world. That'd be good for our show, the club, this is the best place to fund go me and my friends at

the table. I really wasn't irritated. I just thought it was weird because it probably came up and she just went with it. And I mean, I don't even know how they would know. What do you think about that? What your thoughts? I mean, if I dated some one into that high profile, well I would I'm saying that, would you have? Did you think it was weird? She went on their podcast and talked about it and not

our radio show. Yeah, but I think it was more of a thing that it kind of spilled out, like maybe they brought it up and she just kind of went with it. But how would they know to begin with? That's the thing. I don't know how did they even to get to that? Yeah? Yeah, Um, Lindsey sending me pictures because we have she has a show tonight and so it's it's some show with like Melissa at the redging cam and her. She has an EP that comes out and EP is like a half a record. It's

like a selection of songs extended play. I think it's maybe look at what EP means? Is that right? And LP I always not meant long play? But I don't know. I just but LP is a full record. So she's putting out six songs and you know, I'm not gonna play all them now, but she's playing tonight and she's gonna play a couple of those songs. But I want to go out tonight. She's gonna a pictures, like, hey, what do you think I should wear? Like I had? Like, I don't nothing. It does a long play. Yeah, I

just assume that's what the L meant. But she has like this song we've played before. This is called Waiting on You, and it's six songs? What's that this New Friday? They're not kiss the Soul you. I've played this before. I'm excited for her to have music out. She's excited about it. The weirdest thing is, I'm not gonna play it here? Is that? So I'm sure she'll talk about this. But before she started making this new music, her producer said, hey,

find a favorite album and remake the whole thing. You do all the instruments. Have we talked about this before. I don't think I'm here, okay? And so you do everything, you to play every instrument on it and make remake the whole album. And so because she plays all these instruments, and so she did John Merrick Continuum, and so she did every song from the record, played every instrument like

from guitars to drums to flutes. I don't even know what she did, but so she does it all and she makes it and really really know, I did to put any of that out. And so her record labels like, hey, you should put one of these out, and then they picked the song because she just has all of them. And you just make a bunch of music basically like your label kind of pick because other ones you put the money behind it. And the song that they pick is my favorite John Mayer song of all time, which

is kind of weird, which to stop this train. So she does a cover of stop this Train, which is kind of weird and kind of comes back full circle. Actually, you know, I have the lyrics to stop this Train down in my kitchen. Those whole song is about like getting older and you know how you want to stop the train and then because you want to just you don't want to get any older. But then it's like, I don't stop the train, just kind of enjoy it. Its life goes. But she has a cover of the song.

Well that kind of plan. Hello, the world is black, so you gotta be interesting and it comes out Friday. I don't know what. You may hear this after Friday. So, um, there's that that's going on. Where are we at in time? Here? We are about fifteen minutes? What do you want to talk about? Anything in your mind? Uh? I don't know, man, I'm kind of excited to hear that version. She didn't. I've heard a couple that she did from the Continuum. You haven't heard that one one? Mean, like I near mind? Mind?

Like what's on your mind right now? Oh? I don't know, dude. Um, people like alread you talking. I got about a hundred things I can talk about. I just wonder what's like today. It was Mike D's first day, like not being here for most of the day. So I talked about before how everybody I try to build a pipeline to get everybody into the show that I wanted to show, and that nobody's ever just bene like, hey, you're fully hired. Everyone's had to like struggle to get in, including myself.

And so Morrigan worked, for lack of a better terms, my assistant for a long time until you get her in. And now Morgan is the full time producer and is not working for me at all on a personal You're running that nutty thing that's the radio show. Mike D his answer and phones has been as my assistant. But now Mike D's like doing all this show stuff now. And Mike D the only time he came up here was today to do this. This is the first day because I you kind of graduated up and I hired

somebody new there, so everybody growing up? Man, And how did how was it today? Yeah? What do you do in your first day? Like when you get this haircut? Yeah, hit at the gym, you gotta nap in dang, do you think you can get bored? I don't think so. Just like about Blue Apron, not all ingredients are created equal. Right now there is a box of Blue Apron on my counter, so that all the times. Sometimes sometimes I say there's not there, there's right now Blue Apron for

less than ten dollars per person per mill. They deliver seasonal recipes with preportion ingredients, and you can make home cooked meals lots of variety, new recipes every week, or let Blue Aprons calling ary teams probably too. They can send your recipes. The recipes an't even repeated within a year. You'll never get bored. Customized recipes. Each meal has a step by step, easy to follow a recipe card and pretty portioned ingredients that can be prepared in forty minutes

or less. And it's guaranteed that the freshness guarantee every ingredient arrives ready to cook or they'll make it right. But they're not gonna have to do like a lunch boxes Blue Apron faster than I do lunch boxes Blue Apron and neither get paid. He didn't do. I think he pays for Blue Apron for me. I don't have paid for it anymore because I do these I used to pay for it, but I don't anymore just talking on lunchboxes. I don't even think you. I should get

him a look up now, think about it. Check out this week's man. You can get your first three meals free with free shipping by going to Blue Apron dot com slash Bobby Cast Blue Apron dot com slash Bobby Cast. You'll love how good it feels and tastes Blue Apron. Don't wait Blue Apron dot com slash Bobby Cast, but that there you'll get that three meals for free to Blue Apron dot Com slash Bobby Cast a better way to cook. A lot of people are asking, like when

lunch Lunch Lunchbox gonna do the Bobby Cast Eventually? He will. I don't. This thing's gonna last forever. I don't want to hammer everybody in the show. I think I probably got too many people on too quick, because I'll get Ray up here. I get lunchboxpre first of all, and I'll get Ray up here. I think Eddie's fun to have come and just talk about stuff with um not. I think everybody comes up here eventually, but I think we need some big one for lunch Box to come

up here, but I don't think it's right now. People are put lunchbox will be on everybody, lunchbox will be on um another lunch box, like not even controversy. But when I did my book, and I've talked about this before, people asked me about it, and I did my first book, I wrote in my second one right now, I guess my only book. I did that book, I sent off like three pictures to the book company. The only picture

there were two pictures. I knew they were going to use the front picture where I'm holding the roses upside down, and that wasn't even taken for the book. That was taken for a Raging Idiots picture because I was just I was I'm wearing like crappy jeans and slippers, yeah, and I had those flowers because we were doing a Raging Idiots um like if I was your boyfriend shoot,

and I was like, hey, let's take a picture. And the photographer Robert and my record level took the picture and I was like, that's gotta be the cover of the book. And so that's how that happened. That picture. I knew the inside picture where I'm sitting at a picture of me just sitting at the radio. Um, it's like microphone. Like on the first pagere of the book, Eddie took and he didn't take it of the book,

but taken for something else. And you'll see whenever to the credits on the front pages, this picture by Eddie Garcia. So that was the only two pictures that I knew were gonna be in the book, and they had me send I'm not gonna say, three hundred hundreds of pictures and they didn't pick any with lunch Box in them. So people think I left lunch Box out of the book. I don't know pictures that were gonna take ever until I got the book back, and he wasn't any of

the pictures. I talked about him quite a bit in the book, so it wasn't like not in the book. But they may have used twenty pictures or so. Maybe I don't. I haven't. I'm telling you already the thing one time and I was done. I can't. There's one that's extra that's laying around the house. I don't even like looking at it. Um, it's just that that thing's weird, and I'm writing a second one right now. Sucks, Yeah, sucks. It's like I don't even a problem. But anyway, Lunchbox

was not left out on purpose of that. Lunchbox has been me longer than anybody has been longer than Amy. I mean, he's like, we've maybe got the fourteen years, I think, And so yeah, people ask about that, and that's the real answer. I sent a ton of pictures and except for the first two, I didn't pick any of them. But also when I wrote the book, my book now bare Bones, I didn't write the exact order of the book. I wrote it in lots of stories, and my editor helped piece it together. And so you

think I wrote it from like beginning to end. I wrote a lot of stories, and then she went and took it and kind of put different like puzzle pieces, because I didn't start it when I wrote it. How it starts with me auditioning for a TV show with Dean Sanders. That's how the book starts. But it was a really interesting way to start it because I wrote that story. But it wasn't in that way. But that's what editors before. Anybody that writes a book, you have to write all the time, and you send it off

to Maybe I'm just stupid. Maybe maybe they make me do that because I know what I was doing. My experience is writing a book, is you're right, a thousand and two thousand words, you sent it to an editor, they keep it till they have a about eight thousand words, and they send it all back and go, well, there's mostly sucks, here's the stuff that's okay, here's stuff that's not. And then you keep going until I think my book has to be minimum sixty words, which is a lot.

For me. It's a lot and so, but you don't know a lot until it actually comes out. I would imagine it's like an actor that's doing a movie and you shoot all this stuff and you kind of don't know what's in it until you go and watch it, or what order it's in until you're going to watch it, becauld you shoot it all out of order to right and yes, or a TV show when you don't get the full script or you don't know how it ends.

But that was that, and I'm in the middle of right in the second book now, and it's I didn't I forget what I've talked about on the radio show. I want to talk about here. But when it came down to writing the second book, I wanted to write, and that's what this is what I ended up doing. My TED talk on UM was winning by losing, which just means you should allow yourself to screw up as

much as you possibly can. That means you're chasing things like chase away and don't be afraid to fail because when you fail, you actually learn, and if you really want it, you'll keep failing and you'll keep learning until you get it. Like I believe that it's if it's physically possible that you can do it. You're not gonna dunk a basketball. If you're five two and can't jump, I don't you know, you're not going to it. So

I don't believe anything is possible. But I do believe it's if it's physically possible and you really want it, you've got a great shot if you just continue to

go after it. And so that's what I was in the book on and so that's what I did my TED talk on And the beauty of the TED talk was is that has screwed up all during the TED talk And this will be the only time that I talked about this in long form, because at first my goal was for no one to notice and for it to come out, and then people debate on what's real and what wasn't and so, and I touched on this in the radio show a bit, but the whole talk was about it's okay to screw up, like screw up

a lot. And I started the talk the Ted Talk, by saying I sent a talk into Ted an idea, and they rejected me. And so then I sent them a talk on rejection and failure and they accepted me. And the whole thing was hand drawn. Look, crappy drawings and maps that weren't drawn to scale, and misspelled word and a broken microphone. Like here's the thing. When it comes out on video, you'll see the mics on a TED Talk, you word on your ear and the microphones

is wrapped around your ear like a wire. It's putting their pretty good and it has this wire that comes down with the microphone at the bottom of it. I'm giving away all my secrets here, but that's okay. If you're listening to this, you deserve to hear the secrets. I feel like this is the secret place where I

can come with people. If you're listening to this and you're this fine to it, you deserve to hear the secrets because there's only a small percentage that care enough want to listen to this podcasts who to get this deep end Like, I appreciate you if you're listening right now, and that's why I feel like if you listen to this,

you should know the secrets you'll see on it. My microphone falls off at the end and I have to like adjust and fix it, and it won't fix exactly, and so I take it and I just use my hand. It looks like the whole thing is falling apart all

throughout the show, and it's all I planned. I planned the whole thing, but I wanted to show you could keep screwing up and keep going, even at the end when the microphone falls off my ear and I and I have to hold my use it with my hand and it's tiny, and I'm like, huh, so my microphone is broken. It was all the proof that you can screw up and make something still work. And so I, like an idiot, posted a picture of one of the misspelled words, and that's where I should have never posted

on my Instagram that how do I be successful? Picture? Because the people are like, oh, you misspelled it, and then I had to kind of explain what happened, like, yeah, I misspelled it. It was you'd be the judge if I was on purpose or not. I'm just saying to this podcast that you'll see if you watch it, the whole thing is done to suck, but at the same time to show you can be successful while sucking and to keep trying. But I'm gonna talk about that and more.

This is the only time because I really wanted there to be a debate on if I was really that stupid or if that was on purpose and both. The answer really is both. I am pretty stupid. Um, but those parts were on purpose, and so yeah, it was that was fun. That was I got a little bit nervous just because it was academic kind No, not intimidated for me. I do stand up and I'll do motivational talks.

I felt like in the middle of all these really smart talks, it had to be a little bit of both, because people didn't expect me to come out and nail them with geography the history of the bones of the fourteenth century Homo sapien, Do you expect a little bit of humor? And so I kind of felt like I needed to one give knowledge and inspire and be funny. And I was like wow, and I was really, there's a lot of pressure I put on myself because I really wanted to do that, so some of it was

self inflicted and before. But I don't really get nervous before I perform anymore because I've screwed up so many times that I've done as bad as you can do. I mean, do you remember the Jason Now with anything? I was like, do you ever that flipped? Like I've done as stupid as stuff as you can do. Yeah, I mean you couldn't get so that part of it.

But I think because it meant so much. And I always tell people they are going to perform before they get nervous, like it's awesome that you're nervous, because this means something, because if you're not nervous, who cares? And the means anything. If you're nervous, if you have if you feel your heart beat in your neck, if you feel your heart beat in your wrist before you go do something, that's because it means something. What does it mean?

I don't know. Maybe it's that you're not comfortable with it and it's you got up grade maybe you have to go speak and you're gonna get an eighth thro f. Maybe it means that. Maybe it means you have present, you know work, you get to pull off and you don't want to look down in front of the boss. Maybe it means you got a record coming out, you're gonna play a big performance in front of you know,

thousands of people. It's all different, but if you're nervous about it, it's because it means something good or bad. You can be bad. Like I went to the doctor on last week and I did my vein. I had flown. And so my main doctor is still in Austin for four years. Crazy. I love my doctor in Austin, so I haven't changed. So my doctor is still. However many

miles it is from Nashville to Austin away. And so I went and I was gonna get some blood work done because I've purposely lost and I've kept myself and

about ten pounds below my normal weight. I think, I wait, this morning was one, I'm six ft a little more if I have the right shoes on him six one, but immediately six ft one right now and like one eight, So I'm I'm about ten ten pounds lighter, because in the next few weeks, I'm gonna know if the stupid TV thing that we've been adjusting for the past nine months is gonna work or I've have been saying that forever. But we have another form. Like we did a version

of the show. We liked it, the network didn't. We another version of the show. The network liked it, we didn't. Now we have one way of another one. We've kind of met in the middle one and we're gonna see what happens and it doesn't matter who, what where. But it could not work, and we just started from scratch to start over again. But I've kept my weight down because if it starts, it just starts. It's like, Okay, we got the show, let's go um. And so I

kept a way down. But when I've lost this weight, I feel weak and like and I don't know if it's because I don't have weight or if it's because I'm getting older. But had all this blood work done, a little nervous about what comes back. Okay, I'm always nervous when I go to the doctor. I never went to the doctor growing up, so the doctor makes me nervous.

The dentist makes me nervous, and never went to the dentist ever, and tell us in my twenties and you know, until I could afford insurance when I was twenty five or twenty six, I never went to the dentist. And so when you grew up, you know, you didn't go to the doctor where I came from. You just fix it at home. But yeah, I'm I'm nervous about that, so because it means something. The point is, if you

get nervous, that's because it means something. So I embraced the nerves and know that having nerves is awesome because no, I don't know, it's like you got like, you know, HERB test. Yeah, but if you have nerves for yeah, Like I embraced nerves. But I was a little nervous because it meant something to me. And I say a

little nervous, like, but I walked out. And luckily I'm comfortable on stage because I've been doing stand up and I can pull myself off stage for four months and then it's kind of a if you're readjusting it comfortable again. But I've been on the road so much join stand up that I felt comfortable pretty quickly and I gotta laugh immediately, and it's like, don't you get that first one. You're like, Okay, I can do this. They don't hate me. It's like I'm back in junior high again. It's like, okay,

they liked me. I kind of fit in for a second, so let me do it. And I followed like someone who had won like a Pulitzer Prize or or the Time magazine Photo of the Year. And then the person after me was doing a thing on like robotics and and the human body and prosthetics is to me, And in the middle of freaking radio DJ who got lucky writing a book and who's a mediocre singer and just kind of funny, and it's like, hey, I am And so I really felt like everybody was like what is

this guy doing? So I feel like I had to hit it. And I felt like it was pretty good, like I would give myself passing grade and I have my own worst credit. Good god, um, but I I came off not hating myself, and a lot of times I come off and just be disgusted with myself and

I have to stop doing that. And you never know really if it was good or not because somebody comes off and and I have friends at performing something off stage, and I there are nights I'm off, I had an off night and Raley a couple of weeks ago, and they're nights when if and I just know it wasn't good and people are like, hey, you know what that was good? Like oh, stop, Like, don't tell me because I'll never believe you now, you know if you can say, hey,

this this one part here was good. Um, yeah there was a part here, if I'm asking, like for me, The weirdest thing is if I finished the show and let's say Rod, my boss who's over all the I Heart stations, Country stations, it comes in and he goes, Wow, what a good show today. I'm like, why didn't you stay that on Tuesday? Is that not a good show? Because he only says that when he really means it. So I am way to my into my own head, and I as I talked it out a lot of

it like like crazy, I actually am. But I wish I could be more like Eddie. At times Edie never were talking about this day. Edie's like, I have no stress. Lunchbox has two was like I have no stress about any sort of is there just like we just live life and like I have such anxiety about everything, But I guess that's why we are like who we are. If I have anxiety everything, I probably want to do a hundred things. Um, eventually I'm just gonna compised and

die thirty two minutes in. Uh. Is there anything else that I wanted to talk about because I just wanted to hop on. It have been a week before we've done another one. UM, so if you're coming to Nashville, you're in Nashville. I have a stand up comedy show in April in Nashville. It's the one that I'm doing. I wanted to do a show in Nashville. Um, I did a couple of like workshop shows or I went out and practice stuff, a couple of shows for small theater. But I'm doing one in actual the city. And so

that's um April twenty something. But you can go to Bobby Bones Comedy dot com. Pretty much all the other shows are sold out. We're trying to get some more dates put on. The reason that I haven't done because a lot of people in Austin was a why why

haven't you done Austin? You've done Boston, Sacramento, and all these are the cities well, because we had a Raging Idiot show at the Rodeo that we were committed to and there's a radius time clause when you do shows, you can't do something like x months before or after, and we committed to that show a long time prior, and so we the Regia and then we're playing a hard country in May and kind of the same thing. We can't do something, so eventually we'll be back. I'm

trying to get everywhere, and that's the goal. We're gonna shoot a special um, but we're trying to hit as many cities as possible, even like Oklahoma City and Tulsa. Like I'm trying to get everywhere. I just like to see people's faces too. It always reminds me who I'm talking to. Like it's the weirdest thing I write, you know what I'm saying. It really is, because we sit in our room with each other and talk to each other, and you just you never forget who you're talking to.

But it's always awesome for just to punch you in the face again that you're talking to real humans every single day, because sometimes we just feel and I think the beauty of the show. At times, we're just talking to each other, right, Like we're just talking to each other and there's nothing really in our way. We're just much friends. That's why sometimes the show is awful. That's why this Sometimes the show was really good, and there's

not a lot of middle bits with us. There are they're really good or really bad, And the success of our show is we're just a much friends sitting in a room. But when I get to go to these shows, I go out and I meet the people who actually listen to a bunch of friends talking and it's like it's really cool, and like it makes it three D. Makes the radio show three D to me because I never until I started going on the road all the time. I never really you just you get in your habit.

You're at home, I wrap my stupid little book, I practice, I work out, I get ready for the next show. But when you go on the road, I get to meet literally hundreds of people every weekend listen to the show, and they tell you what they like and sometimes they don't like, and it's like okay, and it just kind of resets me, like, oh, she listens with their kids. You know, it's seven twenties. She listens all the time or she hears tell me something good every morning, and

so I mean it. I think it makes a show better because it doesn't. It takes me out of the bubble. Sometimes I get tired on a Monday. I commend probably Dragon Butt a little bit um and the weeks because I'll usually do twenty seven days on and then a day off because it's Sundays or travel days, and that that's a day on for me because it's not a day arrest, Like I won't get into one two pm. So the whole day has been traveling. It's actually twenty seven days on and a then a day off. But yeah,

so Bobby Bones Comedy dot com. But we're announcing a whole new set of shows. We did not expect the comedy tour to be just to be as successful ticket wise as it is, and it's actually going pretty well too. I wouldn't tell you to come if I think it's an entertaining show, because if it wasn't, I'd be like, you know what, I'll just go back and do regging idiot stuff because that's that's like a ball of fire. That's not even that good. It's just fun as crap

like I used to be like Regie idiots sucked. I don't even say anymore. It's just like the Regings is the most fun. It's one of the most fun jokes. You'll go too. Because we don't take yourself seriously. We play a bunch of covers. We are I mean, it's out of control. I laugh at our band. You didn't

go to the rodeo. But at one point, because I don't know, no one even knows the set list, and it's the different cast of characters every show, and sometimes I'll just say, hey, because we can all we can talk to each other on stage and no one can hear us. I'll be like, let's try Tonic if you could only see and I like, huh, I don't even if I know that song, and I just started. If you get on, let's see either way she loves you

have song, maybe find a way. No, I'll play it for you, but anyway, it's just an example of a song. And then people that know what jump into people that don't, and we just kind of go. We have really good players too. If it's not at Lee stove All or Brandon Ray or Lindsay Go, I have a drummer in the basis they're always in the band, but they stay and nobody else kind of rotates out with Eddie and I. So you'll know this tonic song when I play it here if you get on less see no no huge

hit baby A stand Why I feel this sweet about hello? Nothing? What I must do? Maybe I should have used the Egli Cherry reference, been like, hey, Egli Cherry saved Tonight? Do you know that one? One? I know? Save Tonight? Five? The break of Dot yeah dah. That was a jamp here. So anyway, if he my point is I don't know what point. It was fun. We played the Rodeo and the stage turned rotating stage. I get cars, I get

elevator sick, I get sick. We'll look at my phone, even if I'm walking and swiping, I'll get motion sickness. And so the stage rotated thirty minutes one way, then thirty minutes the other way, and it never stopped moving, so you never knew where you work because it was all dark around. He was an arena circle, so you never knew where you were. And it was so weird,

and I was trying to avoid motion sickness. I would look down to the speaker and stare down and then I would look up a bit because there were cameras on it. There are thousands of people. Did they come to what it was crazy and that people that come to these shows, but they really are a lot of fun. And so you're on this stage and we're in the middle of literally where they have the rodeo, so there's mud and dirt everywhere, and so am I jumps blindly off the stage. You can't see the ground, and so

he just goes just jumps. He's singing Purple Rain and he jumps off the stage and I'm like, you can't see the ground. He didn't know where he's gonna hit the ground, and I was like, please don't come up limping, and he disappears and all of sudden he pops up and he's like purple Ray, Purple Ray, and the crowds laughing and loving it, and that was It was fun to do the reggiing Ai stuck. I really like our group of people and what we're doing festival shows this

year and we'll probably do some stuff. Um, I don't know when I had there's no plans. If it hasn't been an nownce there's nothing people festive big festivals on bias because we're just fun. You know. It's not like we're gonna come play a bunch of new songs from Like we have a few songs like Starbucks and Um, She's a ten, I'm a two, which one we play um when I grow up and every Day is a good day. Like those are like our four songs and

people kind of know. But other than that, we're just playing crazy stuff from the Vanilla Ice to Eagle a Cherry to Stevie Wonder to Bestople like anything. We're just like, we're just We're Yeah. I used to really hate talking about because I'm like, because Eddie and I just started with us two an acoustic guitar and restaurants for twenty people, and now it's it's really wild, gonna go. We've already overtime. Thank you for listening. I always love when you tweet
