We're going to get caught up on the Bobby Bone show from this week now. Before we get into it, I'm not going to include a whole lot of cruise content. It's not because it's not amazing and should be on this list, but because a lot of it was in Part 2 from this week. So if you want to get caught up on all things cruise,

4:05then listen to a bunch of the Part 2s from this week and the tell me something good segment. And of course, Part 1 and Part 3 this weekend is with Lunchbox and it is from the cruise ship. So Part 1, we get into it. All things cruise, everything that's happened up until that moment we recorded. And then Part 3, we answer a whole bunch of cruise questions. So all the cruising content your heart could desire. But for this Part 2 here this weekend, I'm going to include all the things that happened in the studio while we were at sea. So let's get into it. Woohoo! A listener asked Bobby to name his top four list of the funniest people. And I don't know if you're going to expect some of the names on this list. Number 7 Hello Bobby Bones. Who's your Mount Rushmore funny people? Sign Laughing in Gainesville. My list is as you, you may say you.

5:07Is that what you're trying to say? Oh, I thought you were really just clearing your throat. I thought for a second to like wise names you have a cold? And then she was like, yeah. I was just adding myself to the list. I do think you're funny. Yeah, this should be easy for you. You think I'm going to pick you guys? I'm in front of you, man. Yeah, you work with us every day. I do think there is an element of humor you guys all bring. Okay, don't pick. If you're not picking one of us, don't pick anybody in this room. That's right. It has to be. Don't worry. It wasn't. It has to be like, I know who you're going to pick. I didn't pick my wife even though that had been the easiest because she makes me live harder than anybody else I've ever met. But I thought you guys would be like, oh, you were. No, I think we would understand. But do you think my wife's funny? She is funny. She's hilarious. But I mean, I guess I can tell you're going to go the professional Canadian route. Yes. Okay. So I'm going to go record your base. I think is so cutting funny and so brilliant. He's the original office guy. He's the creator of the office. I think record your base A plus. I'm going to go from when I was a child,

6:08even to now. And I don't know that I LOL as much now, but he has such an influence on everything that I've done, especially like musically as Adam Sandler. When his records came out and I was 11, it changed my world. Oh, yeah. It's the whole reason that I probably have a guitar and Eddie and I do stupid songs that aren't near as good. But Adam Sandler, to me, one of the funniest people ever. Chris Rock, probably my favorite stand-up comic ever. Like his early specials on HBO. So funny. They were so funny. And as a black guy like myself, I really related. You know what that just reminds me of? And this was years ago. I don't know, maybe 15 years ago, you made me do like a Chris Rock stand-up. Like I had to read it word for word. Amy wouldn't curse at all. She lost her bed. I made her do the whole thing. Yeah, that was back when I didn't cuss. And I... It was... That was so awkward and hilarious. I think Chris... I still think Chris Rock is very funny. But Chris Rock, to me, is there. So I got Jervais Sandler, Chris Rock. And there...

7:08And I wanted to pick somebody new. This comedian, Mark Norman, is so funny. I watch his stuff on TikTok. I never met him. But I just grabbed a clip from his stand-up. Here, hit it. Everything kind of changes when you get older. You know, my brother had a kid. That's crazy. Everyone wants to play with the baby. Touch the baby. Hug the baby. I find babies fascinating. Because babies are the only thing that comes out of another person that strangers want to hold. That's true. And that's... Everything about that? Anything else comes out of a human being. Or like, wow, this dinner party is over. That's like the clean... He's just normal. He's so funny. Mikey, do you like Mark Norman? Yeah, he's good. Like, I've got to know him on TikTok. But he's a real comedian. So it's big shows. So funny. I'm not putting him on my list. Do one. Because you guys weren't ready for this question. Do professional. Because I'm not going to allow you guys to pick me. Just one comedian. It has to be a comedian. Because Sandler... I mean, I guess he's a comedian. But he's more of a performer. Yeah. Tina Fey or Amy Polar? Okay, he did, too.

8:08You cheated, but okay. Yeah. I feel like they're besties. So they're the same. Yeah. Eddie? Man, I love Jim Gaffigan. Jim Gaffigan's my dude. I think he's so funny. And he spits out comedy specials. Like, I would say every year. So there's always new stuff. I love it. I love John Mulaney. Just the way he talks. I think he just has a funny voice. Yeah, John Mulaney's really funny, too. I mean, Norma McDonald, when he was alive, I didn't pick him. McDonald's a funny. He was so funny. Okay, go on, Kevin. Run the board in there. Do you have anybody? Yeah, I'm a big fan of Shane Gillis. I know he's still like very relevant right now. Yeah, he's awesome. Shane Gillis is super funny. All right, good one. Hey, glad you sent that email. You can email us, although Morgan's not here right now. So I don't remember the address. Man. Sure. What is it? Male Bagga. Bobby Bones that come. All right, there you go. It's the best bits of the week. Show with Morgan number two. Recently in therapy, Bobby's therapist asked him a very intriguing question. What is your purpose in this life? And that's a big question to ask anybody.

9:10So Bobby Ameyeti, they all pondered it and shared what they thought their purpose to this life is. Number six. Was it my therapist's office yesterday? And he asked me, hey, what do you think your purpose is? A big question. A big question. His mostly I go in. And he's like, what's on your mind? And I hit him with something. And we just kind of roll off that. But it was like, hey, what do you think your purpose is? So what do you think your purpose is? Amey. Now you're giving us this loaded question. I'll answer mine, but I don't, I don't want to point you. Okay. What do you think your purpose is? Yeah. I thought you, when you said, I'm going to answer mine. After you answer yours. Oh gosh, I thought you were going to give me time to think. Do you want time? I would like it a little time. Eddie, what do you think your purpose is? It's easy. It's easy. Mine is to, yeah. Mine is to make everyone around me better. So I started with my family. I want to read. And Amy laughed. I'd like to just check in real quick. I just like to check in real quick. I love the confidence of Eddie.

10:11I think he does make our lives better. He's a very joyful. No, there was a laugh. I'm just checking in on the last. Because I was like, I don't know that I could say that with such like, I guess it's, I'm laughing also within me of like, I wish I could answer with such confidence that I have an impact and like, I am supposed to make everybody's life better. And I do it. Okay. Well, let's hear what he has to say. Yeah. Yeah. I think that I was put on this earth to make people either. You just said better. Get away from their problems, whatever, but make them better as people. I don't know why. I'm not doing anything. I'm just being me. But starting with my family, I'm raising four boys. My goal is to make their life as good as it can be and prepare them for the world. My wife, I want her life to be better because she's married to me. I don't know, man. That's just how I feel about my purpose on earth. I think your word choice was hit Amy a little funky because now we understand what you're saying. Totally. You think your purpose is to be there for people to help them so that they have a better life.

11:13Yeah. But even someone that I meet, like maybe I don't know on better day. After we talk for a little bit, their day will be better. I can tell you that you are one of the most fun people to be around. You're very kind. You love small talk. You're that person that is so warm immediately that people are drawn to you. We'll go to dinner with people that I'll drag Eddie along and be like, hey, Eddie, we're going to go to dinner. I'll give you an example with Rich Eisen from ESPN. Now has his own show. Someone I've looked up to for a long time. We've become friends. And I was like, Eddie, come to dinner. We're going to go to dinner with Rich Eisen. He's like, okay, I'm in. We leave and Rich is like, okay, he goes, that Eddie guy. I love that guy. Yeah. That's awesome. Like that's awesome. Like people love Eddie, just being around them. I think how initially came out was you're going to make everybody better because you're so good at it. No, no, no, no. I got it. I got it. I just, I just feel like I want people to leave whatever encounter we had, feeling better about themselves. That's beautiful. Love it. Sorry I left.

12:13No, because what he was saying at first it was weird. It was kind of like when Morgan number two was talking and she was like, people keep coming up to me saying I'm much prettier than pictures. Some are like that. We know what you mean, but that sounds a little weird. Yeah. Okay, you're up. So, I have heard from people that, no, no, I've heard. I want you to say what you think your, this is really hard for me. It is. It was hard for me too. Why are you here? I don't like it. What is your purpose? You want me to go? Sure. Okay. Because it was hard for me too. I think my purpose is like if it was all boiled down to something, it is to show folks that think they can't do it. They come from places that people around them aren't doing whatever it is. You want to be, you want to be famous? Okay. You want to play piano. You want to be, get your, the first person to graduate high school in your family. You want to get a doctor, you want to be a doctor that doesn't, it doesn't matter where you come from. Like I think my purpose is to show by example that it doesn't matter where you come from. You can do whatever you want that the world is absolutely bendable and resources are far

13:20less for some folks, but the fact that you don't have those resources, once you get to that midpoint, you're so much stronger because you got there without all the help other people had. So now you're so strong, you're stronger than they are at the same exact level. It's to show people to be the example to folks that it doesn't matter where you come from. If you just keep pushing, you can do whatever you want. I think that's my purpose. Beautiful. It's pretty good. Both of you beautiful. Okay, Amy. Purpose. Purpose. Got anything? I was thinking of that book from back in the day who wrote it, Rick Warren, Purpose Driven Life. That didn't read that one. It doesn't read. It was big, big, big, big back in the day. Okay. Well, I feel like a connector of sorts and not always publicly. I do like connecting with people in our job and what I do. I love connecting face to face and sharing experiences, but something that has been very meaningful to me the last five years is connecting behind the scenes and privately

14:24with certain things that I've been through and being able to support others and come alongside them and what they're going through. Because I feel like I've experienced some things in the last several years. I never thought I would. And again, they're not stuff that everybody knows about, but somehow it's like if you're in that circle and someone knows, they're like, you need to call Amy. And I'm like, oh my gosh, I can't believe I'm the one with the resource and the information on this, what something that used to be so foreign to me. And now I know and I can be a connector for someone and connect them to the person that could helpfully change the trajectory of their life. I think you have a lot of empathy based on a lot of the public, but also private things you've been through in the past years. And empathy is not something that you can buy. Perspective is not something you can buy. Nobody wants to have to get perspective because perspective is only gathered through very hard times. But once you have it, there really is nothing more valuable than it. And I think you have a lot of that in those areas. And so now you're the person that people that are going through those similar situations hard, they can go, you know, has perspective and empathy and actually wants to help is

15:27Amy. Would you say that would be accurate? I would say that would be accurate. That feels, that feels right, hard for me to say, but it feels right. Like even on the cruise, I connected with a listener, a fellow adoptive mom. And we ended up sitting next to each other at, she came to my pizza making class in and then we sat by each other and through just talking, I could tell what she was going through with something. And I, something I've never shared publicly with anybody. I was able to one on one because it's a private situation share with her. And then gave her, like, you need to order this book, you need to look up at this website. And yeah, that was just a moment that literally just happened a couple of days ago where, yeah, I felt for her. And those are the moments that mean a lot to me. I think we all have earned tools and it is our obligation to use them in a positive way. Yes. We don't want to have to, we never, like, I never volunteered. Hey, I want to grow up in poverty in a trailer park and not in my parents. However, I'm telling you, I'm so fortunate from what I have from that.

16:28And I think if I didn't use that in a positive way, that's on me and that's not good of me. So I think, not just that's three, but just any of the listeners too. We all have earned tools that we didn't sign up to have to have. And now that we have them, I think it is our obligation to use them in a positive way. And so I'm just happy that I've had it because he makes me better every day at this job. I like how Bobby, we said what we thought then Bobby, like what you mean to say that, but I hope that didn't come out wrong. No, you just helped us. Are you sure though? No, you did a good job doing it before. I don't want to be the other one fixing you. I don't know. You said it how I should have said it, and I appreciate that. I interrupted you with my laugh and I laughed to her laugh. Can you do me a favor? Can we hold this question for lunch box when he gets back? I really want to hear what his purpose is. He's going to say, my purpose is to one day be rich. I want to hear that. When the lottery. Then nobody tip him off. You got it. No listeners. Oh, okay. So they'll tip him off. All right.

29:55wheel and did another draft. The category of this one was foods that start with the letter R. Now there's no research team before. We had to come up with it on the spot, which made it a little bit more difficult. But I think we pulled out some good ones in this. Number four, we're going to draft foods that start with whatever letter. I don't think we allow pins and paper, do we? We have before. We write a lot of right now. Okay. I don't know. I'm always doodling. No, you're always googling. That's a difference. All right. We don't know what letter it's going to land on. And the first person is going to be Ray Mundo. Spin the wheel. We're going to be drafting foods that start with the letter R. Ray Mundo, you have 15 seconds. Chee. Foods that start with the letter R. R. Good old R. Man. Five seconds.

31:10Y'all to be something better than that food. I'm saying raisins. That's tough, Ray. The other woman was worse than that. Over on that. Okay. I'll go with rice. Okay. Good old grain. Good old grains. Yep. Morgan. The only thing that's coming to mind right now is raspberries. Okay. Getting better. I have that. Slowly getting better. The hard part of being at number one is you got to answer quick. Now you get first shot, but it's quick. So I've had time to think and come to the conclusion of ribs. Oh, that's good. Yeah. Okay. I was so dumb. Reese's cups. That's good. Reese's cups is good. Okay. So we have raisins, rice, raspberries, ribs, and Reese's cups. All right. Let's go back around. Amy. Ruffle potato chips. Nice. Oh, yeah,

32:15ruffles. Is it rough? Are you going to the brand? Yep. Well, I guess that's a brand, but are you going just rough? I need to just just ruffle potato chips. Potato chips. All right. Ruffle. Ruffles. That's we ruffled. Ruffled. Okay. I'm going to go with it. Ravioli. That's good. Look at you. Ravioli. Okay. Oh, Eddie. I'm sorry. Hey, thank you. Thank you. Morgan. I'm going with the candy. Amy inspired me. I'm going rollos. Oh, that's a great one. I love rollos. I love rollos too. That's a good one. Once you actually have rice. Yep. Reese's PCs. Reese's PCs. Yep. And that's okay, right? Amy has Reese's cups here. That's different. I agree. I just want to make sure to get that out there. I want to argue about it. I think it would get sticky if someone's like Reese's take five. I don't know what that is. No, no, so you

33:18can have that. You can pick that. That's candy forever. Okay. And Raimundo, you have raisins. What would you be adding to that? Well, they just stole my candy. That's what I was going with. So I'm going to just stick with the prison food theme and give me ramen noodles. That's a good one. Ramen noodles is great. Good one. All right. Wait, you get three picks. So we'll go back around. Raimundo, you have raisins and ramen noodles. You get to add one to it. To have to go right again, the only thing that is in my brain is what you top a beautiful meal with. And it's only the finest food gets this rosemary. That's your advice. Did you just tap out of this one? I think there's no way you don't finish the last one. I don't even know. I never find food if you don't know rosemary. I mean, yeah, maybe sprinkle on some potatoes. Raisins, ramen, and rosemary.

34:19Oh, yeah. So they're like romaine. Draft and food to start with are lunchbox. You have rice and Reese's pieces. Yeah, man. I'm struggling with the, I'm struggling with another arm, man. What in the world starts with R? No, not that. Not banana. No, no, I'm trying banana. I'm trying to go through the fruits and the vegetables. Oh, do you ride bread? Excuse me? Why are you giving me something? Why are you giving it to me? You see those eggs? She does. Why would you do that? Amy, what's your answer? What do we do? What's your answer? Give me snack, wrinkle, and pop. Rice, crispy. That's my ham. Rice, crispy. Why did you say anything? But nobody wants to find it. But you let him to rise. He's crispy. No, he already had that. He already had that. Did you have it? I had it. Okay. Yeah, he had rice. He has double rice. That's okay. Rice and rice, crispy. These are totally different. Absolutely different. I've been feeling whatever I say, y'all are gonna not like it. Why is that about us? Morgan. If she goes

35:25right, Brad, I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die. Raz berries and roll those. Then I would not go right, Brad. Oh no, I have to carve options and I can't decide which one to go with. I don't think a lot. Ritz crackers. Oh, that's great. Oh my god. It's so good. It's so good. I don't know what it is, but I have ribs and ravioli. That's over. We already lost. I'm gonna go with rolls. Dude, you're living good over there. That's a really good meal. Amy, pick an R. You have Reese's cups and ruffable potato chips. Does rice errone work? Yeah, sure. I mean, it feels more lunch box. It's picked rice, so I don't know if I can pick rice errone. Yeah, for sure. You can pick rice errone. It's different than just straight rice. You go pick you get rice in a room. So would you go rice errone or what? I can't answer a question. Or what? My last person. Yeah. Okay, I'm trying to decide between rice errone or russet potato.

36:33Okay. I had some other pretty good answers. Oh, what about rata-dui? Is that it? It's a dish. Yeah. It's a soup made by a little rat. Yeah, it's a mouse. Oh, my God. Um, rice errone. Rice errone. Okay. Because he did take your Reese's after you Reese him and you rice him back after he rye. Rice errone is not rice. It is, but it's different. Yeah, you know, he hit you with the double Reese. You're under the double rice. Wait, if you have a problem with it, I'll go rata-dui. I don't, I'm not the rata-dui. I'm trying to write down other orders. I couldn't think of any other orders. Okay. Can I give you some of my other ones I had? Yeah. Red velvet cake. Oh, dude. That's great. One, and I shouldn't. I get motivated since about looking around the room and I looked at my right at Eddie and Mike. Something Mexican. Refried beans. Oh, that would have been good. That's a good thing. What about ranch dressing? Is that correct? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The other one I was looking at Amy when I was looking at Amy

37:34because I try to take inspiration. This is something she was talking about recently that she fed her son. Oh, oh, chicken rotisserie chicken. Dang it. That's good. Oh, roast beef. Yeah, roast beef. Uh, I thought I didn't pick this one. Red hot stuff is one from the gas station. Yeah. What's rigged Tony? I have that. I don't know what it is. I don't know about what I thought. That's a good one. Okay. Yeah. Okay. So let's look at the, um, um, and so everybody can go to bobbyvones.com and vote on the team that you think is the best. Uh, Ray with the strong raisins, ramen and rosemary. Yeah. Lunchbox has rice, Reese's pieces, pieces and rice crispies. Morgan has raspberries, rollos and rich crackers. I have ribs, ravioli and rolls. And Amy has Reese's cups, ruffle potato chips and rice errone. You know, you know, it's all right. It's like I finished last. Yeah, but y'all are strong. You don't get good stuff. I go vote bobbyvones.com. Thank you, everybody.

38:36It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two. Now by request, a listener asked me to start sharing the winners of our draft so they can get the full conclusion. Our big winner is going to be Bobby and this one. He took it away by a landslide. And the next bit we're going to get into is a story from Amy. If she was walking with some girlfriends and they found a stray dog in the situation was a little sketchy. Number three, let me say she has a weird story for us. What do you have? I need to know y'all's theories on this. So my girlfriends and I are on a walkers. Two of us and I have my dog and all of a sudden on the walk, this cute little doodle thing starts following us. I mean, it is so cute. And I'm like, oh, where did this dog come from and who does it belong to? Well, we're about to approach a busier road and the dog keeps following my dog. And I'm like, when we get to the busy road, like something had happened to this dog. So I just decide to go up to a door on that street just to see if that they recognize the dog. And the woman says, oh, yeah, I think it's belongs to that coldest sack down there. So I'm like, okay, so we turn around and we go to the

39:41coldest sack. I don't know which house I just are guessing. Go to one house. Nobody answers. Go to the next house. Nobody answers. Are you holding a dog? No, it's just following us. Like I can't we can anytime we try to get near it to check its collar. It starts barking and like backs away. But it's following us. So it's fine. It follows us to the coldest sack. And then I walk away from the second house because nobody's coming. But as I'm walking away, a guy starts walking out. But not because he heard me at his door. He's just walking to his car. And I was like, oh, hey, excuse me. Like, do you know who's this dog is or is it yours? And he looks at the dog and he's like, no, that's not that's not my dog. And I'm like, okay. And the dog's like starts barking, like barking. And I'm like, what is this dog trying to tell us? Like, is there something going on? And then the guy takes a second look and he's like, oh, yeah, that is my dog. And then calls the dog by name. And the dog follows him back inside the house.

40:42And then he goes and gets his car and leaves. What's your theory? You saw I saw what you're through. Well, so we had some time to think about this on our walk because we all my girlfriends I we looked at each other were like, what just happened? Like, this was weird. And we think maybe he was like, maybe just wanting his dog to disappear. You know, like, that would have been what I went to the dog to be brought back. Like, he wanted it to be out and he wanted it to either get picked up or heaven forbid hit my car. I don't know. Was it any chance drunk? Well, we had our theories of like, maybe you didn't have his glasses on or had he been drinking like why in the world with someone? I mean, there's this dog. There's no denying. If any of us saw our dogs like right in front of us, we'd be like, oh my gosh, yeah, that's our dog. And then when he left the neighborhood and drove by us, like I was thinking how I would handle this situation, I would roll down my window and be like, hey guys, thanks again for taking care of my dog. Like, thank you. He just drives right by.

41:44Like, we don't exist. I'm like, we just basically hand delivered your dog back to you. And the whole thing just felt so weird. Like, he did not want the dog to return. And it made me really sad. Okay, I would think it can't be the glasses thing because I'm blind with no glasses. And I can still tell a dog if it's mine. It had to be like his wife's dog or something that he didn't like. And he was happy it was out and didn't want it back. Yeah, I mean, that's what I would think you guys. Oh, I have a theory. Yeah. He was burglarizing the house when he left the door open and the dog ran out. And he was, oh crap, the dog ran out. So he made up some name. The dog obviously knows that that's the house. So the house of the dog ran back in the house. And that's why he left immediately. He left right after the dog went in the house. What time of the day was this? I mean, it was still lied out, but getting dark. No, nobody's a legal right now. Yeah, dumb, they're an ass, stupid answer. I'd say 4 30 PM. We don't know the real answer, but it ain't that one. It's easy. What? He was high as a kite. He was high as a kite. He'd been smoking inside and he came out. He's like, no, they might, oh, wait a

42:47minute. That is my dog. You saw him thoughts. Yeah. No part of me thought he was high. And like, also his, I don't know, he didn't look like someone that would just be high like, or his house. I don't know. He didn't have a high house. I hear him. Yeah. He didn't look like a burglar, though. No, was he weren't, was he wearing just an eye mask? He was like, he was like us, like our age. Like you look like one of us. Yeah, definitely couldn't be higher than. I think they look like a wife's dog, be honest. So like, yeah, definitely like a little purse dog cute little dog. Yeah, that's probably what it was. I know that had to be our work. That was our work. Yeah. But I'm telling you like, it was so like, I think that he finally just started to be like, oh, yeah, that is my dog. Because we were looking at him like, the dog was trying to say. I'm yours. It was barking. And I was like, and just how bizarre he was like, we were just staring at him. And so I think he just was like, oh, yeah, that is my dog. How can it be so awkward? How he looked right at? And he was like, no, I'm surprised he came

43:51back to yes, though, because if you go no, it's just no. Yeah, that's why it's so weird. Because there's no way. And I think he realized like he had three women like staring at him in a dog barking. He's like, there's no way I'm getting out of this. It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two.

Amy sure to story of a listener on the cruise ship who was getting signs while she was out cruising with us from her husband who recently passed away. And I think this is a really beautiful story about grief and love and country music. So whatever you may think and whatever you may believe, this is a cool one to hear from a listener's perspective. Number two. Okay, so we have a story about somebody talking to somebody from the dead. I don't know much about it. Amy, you're on the cruise. What happens? So this woman comes up to actually Eddie and I were walking around and she's like, hey, do you all mind if I share a story with you? And we're like, sure, a problem. She tells us that her husband passed away a few years ago and that he often speaks to her

49:04through music. She booked this cruise before all the artists were announced because there's muse live music all the time. She's like, I'm not even the biggest country music fan. I don't even know honestly why I booked this cruise. She's like, me here I am. She didn't say that. Why did she booked a cruise? Yeah, she doesn't know. She just was like, I'm going to go on that cruise. Yeah, okay. So sure, we were on it. She just booked it. No, she didn't even really know our show. Yeah, like she's booked a cruise for no reason, booked a cruise for no reason. Yes, okay, but she likes music. But she's like, honestly, it's not even country music. That's my thing. She said that what was it like a week before we set sail, Cooper Allen was added to the lineup. She bought her tickets for this cruise way before that. Well, a song that got her through the death of her husband is a Cooper Allen song. It's something that was really special even to her husband, to her and for, you know, the last few years she's used it therapeutically. Well, then Cooper

50:05Allen's added to the cruise that she didn't even really want to go on. Then he's on the boat. She runs into him on the boat. She's able to tell him how special this song is and what it means to her. And he's like, oh, were you coming to my show in the theater tonight? She was like, yeah, I'm going to be there. He's like, all right, she gets to the show. He's on stage. He tells the story. He dedicates the song to her and her husband and then performs it. And so she's like, my husband's always spoken to me through music. So my husband's here on this boat. Like he was in this moment. He orchestrated this whole thing. Isn't that crazy? What do you think? I mean, let me just let me give you this, Bobby. I know you're like, uh, coincidental. Don't put words in my mouth. So my question for you here is, is this coincidence or supernatural? So I love this for her coincidental. Anything that brings our closer to her husband that she loved and a plus for it. But what are the odds? The odds what? So her husband orchestrated me having to

51:07leave a day early from the crowd has nothing to do with you. No, no, because he wouldn't to come on because I paid my own money to get him on that boat. Cooper Allen. Yes. Yes. I cut my money to pay to get him on the boat because I had to leave a day early. Whoa, this is a ring. Well, then this is a ring. I guess so. I guess he did. So let me get this straight. I want to say this in a way, though, that is extremely respectful. So I love this for her. But now a beautiful moment. Yeah. I mean, she's like in tears now. Can I just be the person now that just says stuff? You mean that like squashes on someone? No, no, no, just really. I love this for her. I didn't want to tell the story because I don't want to be the guy that like reigns on a parade. I shall sit back. No, no, I just don't want to be parade. You know what? We heard her story. So let's hear your story. I don't have a story. All I'm saying is bring an interesting wrinkle in my mind. I go my wife, my wife, being extremely pregnant and the and the doctor saying you can't be out at sea with no way to get back. And I'm like, okay, I have to leave

52:08a day early. So then I take the money that I'm getting paid to pay for Cooper Allen to come on the boat. So that would mean her husband got my wife pregnant at a certain time. Yeah. He heard that husband have pregnant in my wife. No, I mean, he was. He was. See now I'm mad at him. He was part of the pregnancy. He was. Okay, and I'm okay with that. If I can't prove that's not true, by the way, I can't prove that all that didn't happen. But I'm saying in my mind, I go, oh, this all happened because of some, you know, physical, some health things. Doctor says this, wife gets pregnant at this point. And then I go, hey, I will pay for another artist because I can't stay a day. And so I paid for Cooper Allen to go on that boat with my money. And so he comes on the boat. And then all that happened. I think that is a beautiful coincidence. I love it. I love it. And so I don't want to speak ill of it because you put him in a place to speak ill of it. But I'm also being met with the logic of the situation. But I also can't prove that her deceased husband didn't impregnate my wife a long time ago. Yeah, I don't know that he had to

53:11impregnated, but he's orchestrated. He's pulling this joke. He's somehow involved. Okay. So I mean, you think you think this is supernatural with the help of the Lord. Okay. So then what that's different. I think the Lord is helping everything. I think that's what I hear out of this whole story that this was all part of the plan. Yes. Because it could have happened to where it's go. I'm like, well, got to leave a day earlier than I thought, hmm, wonder what we should do. And then all of a sudden, it's like, cool. Exactly. Who plants that in my mind? It's like, why would you choose Cuper Allen? I have no way to prove that any of that is wrong. I don't. And by the way, strong selection because he was awesome. Of course, it's great. Yeah. He was good. Fantastic. Like really good. They didn't tell you guys I paid, but no, no one said that he may not even know. It doesn't matter. But I was just using that in the story for that's how that happened. Gotcha. So okay. Well, but I love that for her. That's a part of a beautiful moment, whether it's coincidental or supernatural, it was a really cool story to hear and a very special

54:15moment for her. I agree. I love all that. But you made me dig. I can't make you do anything. You did. You wanted. No. You want me to speak on it and you knew how I was going to speak on it. You set me up to fail. No. No, you say what you want to say. I can't make you say anything. I do love that story though. Yeah. That's all he's great, huh? Yeah. Wait, the dead husband or Cuper? No, probably both, but Cuper's great. And I didn't know him and he came into the Bobby cast, which was wonderful. And then I was like, oh, I kind of get this guy like because he would do the mashups and I'd be like, some of those are really good. Some of those are corny, but who cares? What I think. But then I got to know and I was like, oh, I think I like him as a person. Then I played golf with him and an event him and his dad and I was like, I love this dude. So what was crazy was she told Eddie and I that story, thinking like if you see Cuper again, can you tell him thank you so much because that was a special moment and the concert. Well then low and behold, we didn't know if we'd run into Cuper again, but guess who was on our flight home? Cuper's manager. So we got to tell him. That's cool. And hopefully it'll get back to Cuper.

55:16It will. And where are you? A full circle. This will probably get back to him as well. That too. It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two.

1:00:28pink shirt and cardigan as well. Well, I do have a cardigan. One at one. At home. My daughter bought it for me. Andy, wear it. I wore it once when we went to a Taylor Swift concert. Because that's the Taylor Swift thing. How did you like going to a Taylor Swift concert? It was fun. I enjoyed it. I'll say I've cried at two concerts in my career. One was at Paul McCartney when he got up there and sang a song that he wrote for John. Then the other one was the Taylor Swift concert. I cried. What moved you about that? Just this music that I've been enjoying with my daughter, her whole life from when she was little and then seeing her just lose her mind, going crazy, having fun and she started crying. I looked at her at some point and I was like, my little girl is growing up quick. I realized I was having a moment. I realized I was having a moment

1:01:30and it was pretty special. It was a fun concert. My daughter was very impressed that I was getting recognized and took some selfies. But I did tell her, I said, hey, I want you to look at this section we're sitting. Go down because your dad's already done the math for what I paid for the tickets. I said, go down eight rows from here down eight rows all the way over to the next walkway aisle. I said those seats. Your old man has to play about 150 shows a year to make that much money. Just letting you know how amazing. I was like, girl, I'm thinking the math, of course, there's no telling what her production cost, but it was a fun show. Yeah, the big show. People love the songs, but how she pulls off that show. It's so impressive. I've always been a Taylor Swift fan. I grew up, my buddy Scott, his mom is Liz Rose. I remember in their early 90s going over to Liz's house and there were some

1:02:36guitars. I remember asking Scott, what's up with the guitars? I remember Scott going, I don't know. Mom thinks she's going to be a songwriter or something. That's just such a great story in itself. The weirdest thing ever happened to me at Taylor Swift concert. I guess there was one of the openers was like Beba Dubie or something. I'm going to bet you're not pronouncing that right, but I don't know. I don't know. I'm probably not saying it right. I mean, my daughter here, she really helps me out. You might be saying it right, though. I've just not heard that. So after Beba Dubie or Beba Dubie, Michael, we're going to come to you in a second for an official explanation of who it is. It is Beba Dubie. You're right. Congratulations. All right. Thank you, my, I'm not familiar with that artist. So my, my daughter goes dad, episode after Beba Dubie's performance. Jolie looks at me and goes, Dad, if you need to go to the bathroom now is the time because Taylor shows like three hours. So I was like, okay, let's go. So we

1:03:40go up to the bathrooms. There is a mile long line in the girls' bathroom. The guy's bathroom, there's no line. So I was like, thank you, Lord. I walk in about the same time as this like high school dude. We walk through the first set of doors. We walk in the next set of doors. This, this bathroom is packed full of high school girls. Oh, wanting to get a quicker way to end the bathroom. Oh, yeah. They're in the men's bathroom. And that high school boy was like, he said, I remember he goes, oh, heck no. Me, I'm in my 40s and I don't have that kind of negotiating power with myself anymore. It's like, I'm not going to make it three hours. Dude, there are, there are four other dads pulled up to these journals, right? And I'm looking at all these girls and I'm looking at this situation and like my, my mind's racing like, what do I do? What do I do? A dad walks away from one of the urinals. It's my turn. And he kind of gives me this

1:04:41like, I don't know what to do. You know, what do you, what do you do? Kind of look. So I'm like, okay, we're doing this. We're doing this. So I pull up to the urinal to do my thing. And in the middle of the process, some girl behind me says, hey, Aaron, why don't you sing us a song? Oh, yeah. And I was like, that's really, that was pretty messed up. And I literally said that I said girls and they're all laughing. I said, girls, that's messed up. That's messed up, girls. And I mean, but we had so much fun. I love going to concerts and it's fun. That's kind of me. You get to go to many concerts, though, because you're on the road a lot. Not a lot. I don't get to go to a lot of concerts. Every time I see you on TikTok, you're on the road. You're, no, you're doing a show. Yeah. Yeah. Are you doing a lot of shows? Oh, yeah. That's what I'm saying. Like, you're on the road a lot playing shows. We always, my daughter has the bands in town app. And so I'm like, find the dates where, you know, we're going to a George straight concert.

1:05:44We bought tickets this week. And it's on a day that I have off. And so we have a lot of fun. She has a long list of artists we're going to go see. And I'll be honest, I know a lot of them about as well as you know, be Bidubi. I do not know Bidubi. That's the thing. I never even heard of Bidubi. Like, I'm out. I'm out of it. Yeah. I'm sometimes just like, I'm, I am, I, she's taking me to places where I look like that dad. Like, I'm like, let's go. But just seeing her small and saying like, I do whatever it takes. Do you feel though like when you go to these shows with your daughter, like, does she like any of the music that you also liked? And is that, does that ever hit you? Like, it's so cool that she likes music that I also like, like older stuff. Oh, yeah. Like, she's, she loves the Beatles. She loves Elton John. She's, I mean, I posted a video while back. She's in there at night. You know, I can hear her in there in the bathroom getting

1:06:47ready for bed. And she is just singing Keith Whitley at the top of her lungs. So it's cool. Like, we did this little cover album just for fun a couple of years back called Cover Girl. And I did it actually as a project with Jolly because all Jolly was listening to was Taylor Swift. And I said, well, Taylor's great. I go, there are so many like you need to know the Amy Lou Harris' of the world. Like, and so it's fun for she and I. We take a lot of drives, whether it's in my truck or the, the Corvette or the Jeep. We take these drives just to listen to music and she's in control of the radio. So you never know what I'm going to be listening to. What about your son? He plays with you. He's, he's, I think he's good. Dude, well, I already have labels gone about him. And I'm like, the boy hasn't even recorded anything yet. He's so good. He's older though. Yeah, Jake is 19. And so Jack. And then there's Jack who's 18. Jack is too smart to be in the music

1:07:53industry. Jack is already, Jack already has like 200 ounces of silver and a couple ounces of gold. Like he works by stock. Like I was showing Jack some of my most horrible investments I've ever made thinking that would show him like, Hey, you went some, you lose some. And he looked at me and he goes, Why would you have ever thought that that company was a good idea? And I was like, Okay, well, now you actually think pops is even probably number than you already did. So that back fired on me. But I'm having more fun. I'm telling you right now, if they gave an award out for a country artist that has the most fun at their shows, I would win it because I love what I'm doing. But now I'm literally like on stage with my son and we're jamming out. I'll go over there and you know, mess with him and undo a pearl snap or I'll go up and button the tops pearl snap and I just

1:08:56love messing with him. And then I just hand him the mic and I'm like, pops is tired. You know, that's tired. And dude, he'll just and they go nuts for him and he's a great songwriter. He's he's he's going to be dangerous. Was there a point where he was actually good enough? Did you ever let him play with you when he wasn't quite there to help him get there? And then there was a point where you realize, Oh, now he can actually play with this. I don't really have to like prop him up anymore. Yeah, I was very protective for a while. Like if he would be if he was singing a song, I'd have the mic just waiting to see like if he kind of stumbled, I could jump in and sing with him. Um, but he's been getting on stage with me since he was, I mean, five or six because he just loves to play. And now he has my whole show memorized. And like a couple of weeks ago, my drummer, his flight got delayed. And we had sound check. So my son just jumped in there behind the drums. He knows the entire show on the drums too. He knows the

1:10:00entire show on the guitar. He's he's he's he's super talented. And it's fun to watch. Is he a better guitar player than you? Oh, like when he was 12. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I mean, but Jake, Jake started with the Beatles. You know, they got into like Mark Noppler, Dyer Strait. Yeah. And then he just started learning all this crazy stuff. And honestly, you know, and I'm not like the biggest John Mayer fan. Like I have a great appreciation for his music. And I like a lot of his songs. But a lot of John's acoustic stuff is so like Chedacans. It's just got that country, finger style guitar picking and Jake learned all that stuff. So his playing is so good. And he's hungry. He calls me, you know, he's in college. So he'll call me late at night. I'm like, what are you doing? He's like, well, I should be studying, but I'm working on a song. And I'm like, well, just I know your mom says he wants you to make good grades. I'm like, if you could just like,

1:11:03you know, have good attendance and pass. But don't tell your mom I said that. What's Amrillo like now? It's been probably two years since I've been there. Well, you know, I live. I grew up there. Are you not there? No, I've been in Abilene for a while now. It's been three years since I've been there. What's Abilene like? It's it's growing like crazy. They've got like, it's it's it's supposed to like double in size over the next 10 years because like Google and has showed up in AI. Some AI deals showed up. I mean, we live about, I don't know, 20 minutes South of town, kind of where the hill country starts. Buffalo gap Texas. It's a thriving. Is it is it only you guys? No, it's actually started growing, but it's we're out in the middle of nowhere. So it's it's pretty nice. What about you? You got a pretty big ranch big. Yeah, piece of land out there. Yeah, I've got it. We've got a big ranch out there. We built a a ranch house on the edge of this little canyon that has a bluff behind it. And I wrote I built

1:12:04that place just to write songs. So we we use that house for a lot of different reasons. I have riders come in. My bus driver, band guys will stay there sometimes, you know, it's so that's not your primary house. No, um, it's kind of like the dog house. Like also if I get kicked out of the house, I'm like, not it's on the same property. No, it's about different property five or six miles away. So, um, but it's a really cool place. And like if if someone at church, you know, needs a place to stay, I'm like, well, you can go to the ranch house. So we do a lot of riding at the ranch and we I've recorded a lot of vocals there. But that that I don't know. It's just kind of my it's my happy place. And also to like whenever I go out to the ranch, I'm I will look around. And I'm like, you know, I bought this with a song like a lot of songs, not one, but like a lot of songs,

1:13:06but it always makes me go, wow, you know, people always say you think someday you'll ever like make it. And I was like, that's an interesting, you know, that's an interesting statement because what is make it? And I've always told people the reason why I'm successful is because I made sure that I made go that my goals were achievable. Like if I would have started off my career saying, I want to be bigger than George straight someday or as big. You know, that's a pretty big dream. But my goal was it would be really awesome if someday I had a career where I could write my songs, record my songs, play shows and do well enough that I could provide for my family. And so that's, you know, I've been able to achieve that. When you talk about seeing your house going, I got that because I wrote song. Sometimes I look at my swimming pool and go, I was able to get that because I just say stuff. That's crazy to me. I'm the same way. I'm the same way that I'm like,

1:14:11what in the world? It feels like it should be against the law. Because the swimming pool to me meant somebody made it. Don't even call swimming pools. I call it pools. Cool. Okay. Is that weird when I say swimming pool? I call it a swimming pool. Well, do you say washing powder? What? What? Okay. Never mind. They lie. You detergent. Obviously I'm from Arkansas. But I have things that I haven't been able to shake consciously. Yeah. So I will just say things. For example, that wasn't on purpose. I say swimming pool. And if I'm talking about doing the laundry, I think I've been better. But it's always been like, yeah, we'll use the washing powder and that's awesome. I'm going to start using that. No, no, it's never on purpose. But that's what they're alluding to is at times I can't shake some of that fundamental Arkansas language. I like it though. It's, I mean, it's like I'm going to use it when I get home that I'm like, babe, we're the flips of washing powder. She can be like, what are you talking about? Yeah. So no, I'm the same way. I'll say I'll say something and I don't I can't think of a word right now. But I'll say something and people be like, what did you just what did you just

1:15:15actually say? And I don't know if it's, you know, being raised in West Texas and my mom for sure, West Texas vernacular for sure. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. How long has been married? Gosh, 24 years. She's put up with me for 24 years. What's what's what's what's what's what's what's hard to say? Like why or like what's the reason? But what do you feel like is the common thread in relationships like yours that have lasted? A good woman. That's a patient. And, you know, I think, I think the best way I can describe it is like, I remember when I was like four or five, my mom and dad got into a knockdown dragout argument. And I remember mom slammed the front door. And I was in bed. And my bedroom was the closed in single car garage that my dad, you know, when my sister was born, he turned that into my bedroom. So when mom fired up the car that night, I remember the headlights,

1:16:19like lit up my room. And I was pretty upset about it. And when I'm sure my mom, I'm sure my mom drove down the street to her sister's house, my aunt B, I have an aunt B. And I'm sure they had like a diet coke and they, she cooled off and she came home. And when she came home that night, she came into my room. And I was so little, but I remember this. She said, I asked her, I said, what, what happened with you and dad? And she said, well, we had an argument. And I was like, well, what happened? You know, like what was going on? And she said, well, I'm just going to tell you this, she said, right now, I do not like your daddy. She said, but I love him with all my heart. And I think that's the mentality that like, you know, because that's the mentality you got to have, because I'm not naturally like that. Like I'm more dramatic like the sky is falling. If

1:17:23there are times where I'm like, if it wasn't for the kids, like I just want to pack my bags and hit the road. Of course, I'd get 10 miles down the road and be like, where am I actually going? You know, but that's how, that's how I work. That's how my mind works. And you know, I just think it's one of those things where, you know, for me in this phase of my life, you know, it's just, you know, I, it's not easy. I mean, I'll just say this, it's just not easy. It's not, not easy. Sometimes I'll say like impossible. So, you know, you're really selling this. Yeah. I mean, but it's one of those things. You're really like, and you feel like the villain, and she's the greatest superhero of all time. Well, he was the one that was, he's saying he's going to pack his bags. I know what I'm saying. Like he's the one that's like, I got to go. I think, maybe if she's here, she'd be like, well, I was already on. I think if she was here, she's just slap him and say, Aaron, stop talking. Yeah. Should we give him a shovel? No, it would be this, this, this look,

1:18:27she gives me where it's like, please stop talking where she just does the side I like. Yeah, you have to say anything. You just, it sounds like there's moments where you all don't like each other, but you love each other. Absolutely. But, but that's one of those. I think that's any relationship. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. 110%. If the true love is there, unconditional love, the secret though, I mean, I don't, I don't know the secret. You know, if, if we're going to be married, if we make it 50 something years, bro, we still got the other side of the mountain to go. So it's like, but I think it's just that it's just trying to, it's trying really hard to work through the tough stuff. And man, we've had some, you know, we've had some tough stuff. You know, I mean, we, we lost a child together. And, you know, I think if we were to like probably dig deep into counseling, I do think that that probably, that was hard on she and I both just, you know, there were, and at that time, we had like a literally a, like a four year old, a two and a half

1:19:31year old. And like we had three little ones already. So I mean, I don't know, it does make for good songwriting material, you know, and that's life. And a lot of times I try to capture those feelings and put it into a song. And I really, I try to do that with a lot of my music. Like man, if I'm, if I'm feeling something, I try to be real about it because I, you have to think there's other people out there that are going through those kind of things. And I've always found music to be very therapeutic. So even to write, oh, writing's, writing's my favorite thing. Writing is, it's what I live for. Like I wake up in the morning excited to make coffee and go sit on the back porch and write. And, and I'll tell you, there's like me writing right now. I'm a different writer. Like, I know I'm not supposed to talk about the next record. We've, we've got this new record horse. We're just about to do one with 26 songs here. Yeah. And it's going to have 40 on it when

1:20:32it's all said and done. But I've already finished the next record. And don't say that one's even better. You know, we're focused on this one. I can't help it. I can't help it. But the thing about it is is that like, I don't want, I don't know why, why now I feel like my mom's always said I was like, I remember saying mom and my ever going to grow sideburns. And she was like, baby, you're just a late bloomer. So I don't know if it's my songwriting has been kind of a late bloomer. I'm so proud of all my past 25 years of songs. But I just feel like I'm seeing things differently. I don't know if it's just a combination of where I'm at in life or probably to it has a lot to do with the fact that I have two kids that are writing. And I want them to see my work ethic. I want them to see how hard I work at my craft. Those kind of things. Explain like I'm five. What it means to be an independent artist, which you are. A lot of freedom. And that's one reason why I'm independent.

1:21:38Also survival. I mean, if you have a dream and you want to be a country singer and you know, no labels in town, think you're good enough. Well, do you just give up on your dream? And it's a much different environment than it was. I mean, even when we first met, you know, almost 10 years ago, whatever. I mean, back then, I mean, go look, go back and look at Country Music Award shows in 2015, 16, 17, like it's me and about three other dudes that have buckles and cowboy hats and boots on. And back then, they called me a hat act. Back then, you know, I was Texas music and it wouldn't work outside of Texas. And you know, and so I love now, and Ella Langley has a song that right off the bat talks about my two hometowns, Amarillo and Abel, and the first site, second, I heard that song. I made a video and I was like, this is going to be

1:22:40the biggest song. It's going to be a number one hit. So I mean, I don't know. It's like, I think that I do take a little pride in being able to talk to a lot of independent artists to say, hey, what's your business model? It's about running a good business, making good business decisions. But I also love the fact that like, I'm recording, I've got sessions in a March. We're recording some fun little side projects. I'm recording again in May. I just love the fact that I don't have to ask some record label like, is it okay if I do this? Is it okay? You know, if I get excited about the music, that's what matters. So sounds like the good is you as a creative, can do the creative things that you want to do. It sounds like the difficult thing is especially early is nobody's funding it. You're having to fund everything yourself. You're having to find all the money to make all the things happen. Yeah, that's like we're, we are, we've got this five-year

1:23:40plan in this new album, Horse Name Texas is day one. And we're going to be going to radio over the next five years. Well, you're here now. I'm here when you're literally here now day one. Okay, I'm just making sure this is day one. I'm sure you know where you are. We're not at Chick-fil-A. We're here. This is day one. Okay, I was like day one of my five-year plan. We must be on the Bobby Bones show. There are 26 songs on this record. It's a lot of songs. Did you not part with some of them? Why that? I'm just always when it's an odd number like 26. If it were 11 or 12, I get it standard. If it were 40 and you're like, it's a double album. But 26 is kind of an odd number of songs. Why? Well, we had them recorded. They're all songs I'm proud of. And those are all songs that I wrote during that phase. What would you call that phase? What was that season called? Well, the last four years, a lot of ups and downs. I had two vocal chord surgeries. I had a lot of

1:24:46time off. And for me, it's like I wrote all these songs together. And you know, it's for me, I don't want to sit here and be like, I'm thankful I've had this long career I've done enough. For me, I want to do more than I've ever done in the next five years. And so I love those songs. Those songs are finished. Those songs need to go out. I'm passionate about them right now. But I'm already having a hard time not wanting to push this next record. I've already finished. And Greg is over there. Do not. Well, so am I. I'm like, stop talking about the next record. We got 26 songs here. It's right now. It's my art. And it's like, it's one of those things. It's almost like talking about your kids. I have found myself, especially when they were little and baseball and like we go in somewhere and next thing, you know, I'm like, I talked about my kids the whole time and did not talk about the record. But it's just you get you get excited about the music. And so, but yeah, horse name Texas, it's a story about my career. It's where I've been,

1:25:55where I'm at and where I want to go. And why I do it? Like the second verse says, came up short, been bucked off, had my heart stomped in the dirt. But I got back up, got back on time and time again. And after all these years, I've learned a winner's just a loser who keeps on losing till the day they finally win. And that's just the story of it's a lot like your story. Fallen, tell you don't. That's one of my books. Absolutely. I should have made you a co-writer on there. Or you just could have said, hey, buy my book. Fallen, tell you don't in Amazon. Hey, where's what camera do I look at? Pick one. Go down. Go down. Aaron Watson here. Bob Bobby's new book fell until you don't. It's been out a few years. He's old book. Actually inspired me to write this whole new album, Horse Name Texas. And I will change your life. Where's my camera right there? Okay. Hey, it's Bobby here. I wrote that book. Fallen, tell you don't, inspired by the record, horse name Texas from Aaron Watson. It came out years later. But I really felt it in my heart, what it was going to say. So please check out horse name Texas now. That's mud dog right there.

1:26:58Back and forth. That's my dog. We both did that. Um, it's like you're a loser till you're not. Yeah. It's fell until you don't. It's like fell until you don't. Horse name loser. There's no other way to say it. No horse name Texas. But it's also just one of those things like like I love baseball. I love baseball. Hall of Fame hitter fell 70% of the time. So what do you it's like I tell my boys you went over four. Were you going to cry about it? Are we going to work on the next game? Like what are you going to do? I mean, if you have you have to understand that's just part of that's just part of the process. And also why do you do it? Like if I'm doing this to have big hits and number one records and all that stuff win awards. Like if that's if that's the reason I'm doing this, I'm going to be disappointed at the end of the day. But like the bridge says something like if I choke or wind up broke, God knows I do it all over again because if I write one song that saved a life,

1:28:00wouldn't that be worth it in the end? And that's why you do what you do. I get up on that stage, those people have paid their hard earned dollar to come see a show. And my job is real simple just to give them a good time. And that's what I do every night. We play the show in Knoxville a couple of weeks ago. Not going to lie. When you see that you only pre-sold 8% of the tickets, you feel that like feeling inside. But at some point you suck it up. You go out there and you give them the best you got. And then you know the next night is a sellout. And that's easy. But it's you know, I don't know. I'm just in a really good place with my music right now. And it's exciting. And like I said, Jake, my boy is watching me. Man, he's watching me. And so I haven't, I've got a lot to teach him. And also too, I'm not going to, I am fixing to have some big moments because his old man's not going to go down without a fight.

1:29:06I'm not going to just start opening up for him out of nowhere. Like he's got, you know what I'm saying? It's like, it's like getting out there and playing basketball with him. They're better than me. And I know that I think I may have pulled something and pulled something right here. Can't let them show. I can't let them see that, you know. And I box them out a little harder. Get a little more aggressive. Fight dirty. You can't let those boys beat you. You got to, the old man, it's the old man thing. I feel like you think you're dying, dude. Just scare me. You're like, I got five years and I'm out in here. It's it's say to me that you're not dying. I'm not dying. Okay, good. That's all I want to hear. Here's a deal. Okay, here's the deal. No, but he's acting like I got five years and then they're going to spread my ashes at sea. Here's the deal. I'll come back in in five years and be like, okay, that five year plan didn't work. But this next five year plan, this next five year, this is the one. That's the one where you're opening for your son. That's the one where I'm opening for Jake. I've got so much exposure. Just really glad we had that kid. Tell me about Pontiac. What I think is interesting. And I love it. You wrote the song by yourself. Yeah. So is that one of those you just

1:30:11grab a guitar at home and you really didn't have it set it. This is, can I do my romantic version of you writing this song and you tell me how wrong I was. Okay. Whenever people write songs by themselves, I feel like there's just some sort of inspiration that happens and they just pick up a guitar and it wasn't any calendar for a right because they're not writing with somebody. And they're like, I have this idea. Let me see how and maybe you're even coming up with something for a right that you have coming up in the future. And you're like, oh, man, this is just kind of fallen out of me. And the next thing you know, you're like, I don't think I need anybody. This is everything exactly how I want to say it. Anybody else putting it on it would change how I'd say it. So I think I'm going to record this as a work tape and then eventually you fall in love with it so much. You're like, I'm going to record this as a song and then it becomes a single. That's the romantic version of my head. That's very close. My whole life when there's something going on in my world, like I will call my mom. And I remember I was like, so mom, tell me like, Dad, if he did this and it upset you, what would like, like, what do I do? And so that's where that song came

1:31:18from. That came from me. I don't know doing something stupid upset in my wife. Something's going on and me just going to my mom and saying, hey, now there are, you know, they say country music is like three, three chords in the truth. So that song has like five chords. So and my mom drove a Monte Carlo. An occasional lie. Got it. Got it. My chords and an occasional lie. I like it though. Five chords and a fib. You know, and I've never heard my mom cuss. And I actually called a my mom. She's such a wonderful lady and she's so straight lace like I had to take down an Instagram post two nights ago because my mom didn't like it. And it annoyed me so much. But that mama's boy inside of me went, fine. Well, what, what did you do? Well, I did, I did an

1:32:19interview with my buddy and he asked me what was the weirdest thing that's ever happened to me at my show. Oh, no. And I said, well, it's happened several times, but like having a lady, breastfeeding her baby right in front of me. I was like, there was a cutest little baby, you baby boy you ever saw. And he's got on little headphones. And he's breastfeeding right there. As I'm singing honky-tonk songs, I was like, and the whole thing is I'm like stare at the woman in her eyes, but I know something is going on down there, right? So we talked about it. So my wife, when she was breastfeeding, it's a brand called hide-a-hooter. It's actually, that's what it's just something that a woman will drape over herself. And so we jokingly, we're like, we need to get some Aaron Watson hide-a-hooters at the merchandise booth. So I made a funny post about it. And my mom literally commented on my post like, I don't like this. I don't think this is appropriate. And I was like, oh, I was like, mom, I was like, mom, I'm just kidding. She goes, I just

1:33:21don't, she was, I just don't think that's funny. She was, I just don't like that. And she was like, I don't think, and now I was like, fine. And whatever her mom control that she has over me, I just went up to the little three dots at the top and delete and sorry. So now hide-a-hooter merch coming. No, hide-a-hooter merch is coming. So the song is about your mom. Yeah. It's about leaning on her. You know, you know, what, how did it, it's, it's kind of the same question you asked me earlier. Like, how long have you been married? Like, what's, how did you get through that? Or how have you gotten this far? Like, what's the secret? It's me leaning on my mom, like, you know, and I think a lot about my, my granddad. My granddad was a great guy, but apparently he had a phase of his life where he was drinking, making a lot of bad decisions.

1:34:21And I think about my sweet grandmother that just somehow kept that family together. And I mean, I think without a doubt, you have to give credit to my grandmother for keeping that thing together. So it's, it's talking to mom about like, what did dad do? How did you do it? How did y'all do it? And so that's just kind of a special thing when you can take a memory, a moment in your life and just kind of, it's like a, it's like a snapshot of that moment in a song. So that one's, it's also, a song is fun to play live. It also get added by a ton of radio stations. You're five year plan is working. It's working. Yeah. Congratulations. We're going to play it. Thank you, brother. Yeah, it's good to see you. A horse named Texas is out. 26 songs. You proud of it? Say yes. Say yes. Say yes. Don't say about a second thing you're writing now, but I think it's fair to say too, since we've talked a lot about my wife and how she's been putting up with me for a long time.

1:35:21I think it's, it's, we need to be honest that everyone needs to know that all the proceeds from the horse named Texas album go straight into her purse. And our wife is the wife foundation. Yes, that's good. I get nothing. That's good. I like that. Good to see you again, man. Dude, it's great to see you guys. Proud of y'all, and I love your new place. It's really cool. Thanks. Thank you. Yeah, this is radio. Day one, radio. Day one. I was confused for a minute. I don't feel familiar. All down the old familiar. Aaron Watson music is the Instagram. Is that also your TikTok? I follow you on TikToks. I don't know what it is. Yeah, it's the same thing. I told you this last time. Your TikToks are great. Thanks, brother. Even do you ever get annoyed when they don't hit, and you think it's really funny, and, or do you even look back to see if they hit? I think of it as I'm just throwing darts, because I've posted stuff that I thought was stupid. Like, like, I'll give you a quick example. I was holding this lady's baby at the rodeo in Vegas, and I'm holding this little boy and his pacifier pops out of his mouth and goes down into this crevice, and I reached down to get

1:36:23the pacifier, and when I reached, when I, when I found it, there's literally a beer, a full beer next to it. So I pulled out a beer and a pacifier, and I was like, yes. And the mom video that, and I was like, oh, it's kind of funny. So I posted it, and the thing had like 30 million views. And I'm like, what? And they don't post something good. And it's like 200 views, and I'm like, oh, that sucks anyways. And I just, I think about throwing darts, maybe one on hit. I don't think much of it, but I want to be consistent with, I got some, I got some good ones coming up this next week. And the next Friday, you're working on them. That's my beer. It's like the ones I've got today, or today, or today, I was like, good, wait till you see the ones who are coming down the few weeks. Yes, you know, but you do good too, man. Hey, you're one yesterday. Oh, yeah. Popping. Look, it's popping, bro. Let's go. I'm callous at this point with negative feedback. It doesn't bother me anymore. I've just had

1:37:24so much of it. I've got to grow with it. Do you know what I say to people? Like, if somebody says something awful to me, I have two responses. It just shuts them down. Either I say, you're not wrong, or I'll say, you're not my mom. And I just post it on there. And it's like, you have, they have nowhere to go. If you agree with them, they have nowhere to go. That just stops them dead in a track. And then like, just telling someone, you're not my mom, just says it all. You're not my mom. You can't, only my mom can make me take down a post. And then say, listen to Pontiac streaming now. Listen to Pontiac streaming now. You guys check out the record. It is that. It's a horse named Texas 26 songs all written by Aaron a lot by himself with other co-writers that are excellent, but all written by Aaron. And yeah, it's good to see you, man. It's good to see you, buddy. Great, great appearance as always. And what also we talked a lot about now, but Aaron and I did like way over an hour a few months ago, just kind of like about his life and how he came up.

1:38:28I encourage you to go check that out on the Bobby cast because I learned a lot about his person there. This here is very much like, hey, what's up now? What's up? So funny stuff? That was a lot of fun. Thanks again for having me. And we did it nude. What people didn't know. Yeah, because we really wanted to like get back to the core of humans. Yeah, we wanted it. We wanted I had a bolo on, but other than that, we were good. The bolo, that was a nice. It was. It kept me from getting distracted. Yeah, but I didn't wear it on my neck just for everybody. Yeah, I know, I said, yeah, it was a whole thing. But the bolo was just enough to let me relax. Yeah. And it was shaped like his head. It was a bolo with his head with it. Dude, that's a great merch idea. Oh, your head. Bolo with my face on it. People would buy that. People would literally buy that. I mean, only do a hundred and see how they sell like an AW. No, no, no, do his face with a high cowboy hat. Yeah, do it. Sorry. I agree. I think that'd be awesome. Okay. All right, there he is. Aaron Watson. The album is out. Go listen to a horse name, Texas. And the horse name, Texas tour continues. And it continues all the way up until month 10, which is hold on a nine September. I know that
