This part of the podcast is just the best 7 bits from the show this week that I countdown from 7 to 1. This week includes a couple guests in studio, power rankings and much more! You’ll be able to listen to them uninterrupted with just a few intros!
It's the best Bits of the week with Morgan number two. What U is up, y'all? A happy weekend? Excited to be hanging out with y'all for another beautiful weekend. Well it was beautiful and Nashville, and then we got storms again. I mean, I swear the weather is driving me crazy lately, including my allergies. They do not know what's happening. I hope you guys are having a great weekend, and I'm so appreciative that you guys are hanging out with me for just a little bit of it. Whether you're cleaning your house while listening, driving your kids somewhere, or maybe you're just hanging out with me on your couch with your dog. Either way, I love that you're here. Make sure you check out Part one. Though. This weekend, I had on Eddie with me and we talked about some fun things. He did have a birthday this week, so I made sure to read him his horoscope because you know, nobody on the show really believes in that, but I love to read them. And then we also talked about the things that we would like to own from a celebrity and the thing we would like to be named after. So just a lot going on over there with Eddie. Those are always some fun conversations for me, so be sure to check out part one before you dive in. Right now to the best bits of the week. Luke Holmes was on the show this week and he talked about his brand new album and he also answered uncomfortable questions from our listeners. Luke comes is always a fun interview. He's just super down to earth and he's also going to be a dad of two here very soon, and he's got a big world toward. Just a lot happening for this guy. And not to mention, he does sing my wind song. So I particularly love Luke Combs number seven, So Bobby Bones Show interview in case you didn't know, well, if you don't know about Luke Combs, welcome and I think you're gonna like him. Luke Combs massive superstar and went to college for business Appalachian State University in North Carolina. All of a sudden, can sing real good, starts playing at local bars, got a new album out. It's kind of the second part of his first album. But it's out and it's gonna do so well and it's gonna crush and so he's here, let's do it. Let's talk to our guy. The Friday morning conversation with Luke Combs, Hey, buddy, how are you good? How are you go? Way to listen or email us? I don't want to forget this. I want to bring it up to you now. He wanted to know if it was a red flag that his girlfriend for his birthday she got him one of the shirts Columbia shirt pants like you wear. She wants them to grow a beard out, and she also has a big fascination with you. And he's like, is this a red flag that she wants me to look like Luke Combs? Not so much about you, specifically about her wanting him to look like somebody else. I feel like it may be more of a fetish Well that's what I said. I used the word fetish too, Yeah, because I have that towards you as well, and so I related, right, Yeah, I mean I guess it depends what advice would you give him. I mean, just have poor genetics on the beard thing. If you really want to grow like a really patchy beard, is yours patchy? It looks a plus It's no, it's I appreciate it, but this is it. This isn't t this is it. It's just all that grows it like it's maxed out. But I think it looks good. I never felt there's old patchy beard. I've never said that about you walking in. It's very nicky, you know. Don't wish it was more high. I don't have that. Billy May's like, I get it high this thing, you know, but after shave without my glasses on because I'm blind and I always forget to shave up near my eyes, it goes that high. It actually, yeah, it actually covers my eyebo. I have harry eyes. Wow. Yeah, it's weird. Uh, you have a new out. You don't even have to do promotions at this point, so I appreciate you coming by. I mean I told him at the Graham It's like, this is the most anticipated thing and forever. You literally could do no promotion at all and it would be massive. And then I was looking at us as well. The album's coming out today. It's actually out today. It's called Getting Old's second part of the first record, but it's its own record. Yeah, for sure, different things, no doubt. And then I was like, oh, let me just promote some Lukecomb shows and sold out is next to every single one of them, except in Zurich, Switzerland, where it was like five seats left. Yeah, so you five people in Zurich. This is the promotion. Now he needs to make like ninety more dollars anarily after fees, and so if you're in Zurich, otherwise everything is sold out. One of the issues that I have had, and I think as someone who is so in tune with his fans, you'll understand you probably have done many things, is it people buy up the tickets from my shows and try to resell them for like four times as much, and I get and I'm like, don't buy them. I told Mala, I don't buy the red tickets. If do you have that issue where people are buying them reselling them when you're just like, I'm just trying to get people into shows. Yeah, definitely, I mean everybody does you know, um, we've been doing ticket Master verified for years now. Does that help a whole lot? It does? Yeah, it does help a whole lot. I mean, obviously it's not you know, it's it's impossible to stop right that from happening, you know, like entirely, but it helps a lot. Here's what I suggest. Set up a ticket booth and you're in it like a kissing booth before the show, they come buy them from you, right up. Yeah, then you walk them in, Yeah, to the metal detector. Yeah, everybody gets in. I mean, I definitely think that it's something. It's something that needs to be addressed somehow, in some way, shape or form. Like, I'm not smart enough to know let me ask you this, but it does need to happen because you're killing it. Obviously, you've been killing it since the moment he came out of the womb. Are you starting to save footage for in like fifteen or twenty years so you can do like a Garth whole package of your career because almost now it's your success has been I mean, I haven't seen anything like it, And I hope you've been saving stuff because it's gonna take this at some point for you to have it. Yeah, we have a lot of stuff, you know. I think we're kind of trying to do that right now. Yeah. It's just odd though, It's like the thought of that to me is really strange. But you could recreate some of it though. Shape's beard You're like I'm nineteen, I'm going to Russian for a guy. Yeah, we don't have anything that far back, I think, which is kind of but at the time it's like you're not thinking, man, I should be taking pictures of this, And it wasn't as even though it was, it wasn't as social media where you're recording everything, where if somebody who's nineteen now, they're just doing it because it's the lifestyle, right, it's they just do it. They're just doing that. Anyways. You know, I saw you get the Grammys in LA Is that more of a nerve racking thing for you because you're dressed up formal? Or is it? Is it just a really cool show? No, I mean it's I think it's different just because it's like it's the all thing. It's just so different. I mean, it's so different than you know, going on the CMAS or or you're going on a CMS or something. It's just like at those shows, you know, you kind of feel like you at least halfway no everybody that's there, and then you just gotta you know, you go to the Grammys and you're just like one of a million people, you know, and it's like it's just weird and everybody it's just I mean, you know, you're dressed up formal, but it's like you might as well be wearing a T shirt compared to when everybody else is wearing you know what I mean. Did you see anybody while you're performing? I don't know how the lights situation was. Could you see anybody famous while you're playing? Or were you so just dialed in? I didn't look. I mean, I just like I just didn't want to. I just try not to look. You know, I'm also a horrible guitar player, so I was really focused I'm not missing as well. Yeah, that was more of my concern at that time. Luke Holmbs is here. The new record is out today. It is called Getting Old, which so talk about the project in general. When you did the first half of this, did you know what the Growing Up was gonna be first half? Yeah? I did, Yeah, because I had I had a song, and I feel like, really the way it worked out was just I mean, we recorded over the last I don't know, three years, which is just kind of I think of that time frame of when we recorded Growing Up and when recorded Getting Old, it's like they weren't separate, like all the songs were kind of recorded in this two and a half three year period. There were songs picked for growing Up, which it feels entirely different to me than the next one. I feel like that's the thing now everybody's putting out like a big, huge thing and not there's anything wrong with that. It's just not what I want to do because I feel like it's I want each song to kind of get a moment for people to have a chance to hear it. I guess yeah, as a consumer, if somebody puts out thirty songs, I never even hit play on twenty of them. It's hard. Fans not there. I'm four years old. Yeah, it's hard. I mean it is hard. You know. Luke Combs is here. We're gonna play Going, Going, Gone, the records out today, getting old and go stream it. I'm sure you will. You probably listening to that and not this show. So you're not even hearing me say this right now. Tell me that ain't some stuff. Tell me that it needed to DiCaprio movie. What is that one called? Yeah? No me, that ain't radio inception? Right there? They're not even hearing it, and I'm talking to them. When you have to deal with the lottery and you have the lottery ticket scratch off? Did you ever get one and scratch? I didn't. I got some. I got a feed like from fans actually, and like if you would have one, would they have given you the money? Or is that like me being a call or ten one of our radio stations. I feel like that's why I didn't like scratch them, you know, like if it was like, what if this was one? What did you do with them? Give them away? I have them. I still have them. They're just unscratched lunch. I'm imagining you get offered so many brand deals. Are there any that just don't make sense? But you think, hey, that's probably a great product, but it just ain't for me specifically, so you don't do it. I don't know. I had someone a couple of years ago try to I don't remember who it was, but someone tried to, like do they wanted me to do like a cereal? And I was like, what is that? Oh? That's good. I don't know. I just just sitting I mean, I like cereal or whatever, but I don't know. I'm I try to be like as picky as I can about that because I have the ability to do that right. So it's kind of like like protecting my brand in a way by like not doing things I think is more valuable than just doing everything that comes your way, you know what I mean, Because eventually I always think of something too. It's like, you know, when I'm if I'm making a decision for my career, whether it's something I'm gonna say on stage or a thing that I'm gonna brand, thing I'm gonna do, and as I'm like, what are my like grandkids gonna think about this? You know, like if they see if they were to see this, would they be like, yeah, that was cool. I mean if Grandpa had a cereal. If you're a kid, but you're you're right, because I'm sure with you and with me. I used to beg and say yes to everything because I just needed to say yes to things to get to the next point. But now the freedom for you and even for me, I don't have to say yes everything. I just say yes now the things I want to write. But that wasn't always a case. Yeah, no doubt, and I put I put out a cereal. They said Luke didn't want to do. Yeah, it was called Barry Buttholes, Oh, so you didn't do that, Bobby's I like it. Um, what do you listen to at the house if you're just listening to music for your own enjoyment? Um, Honestly, I spend a lot of time in my garage and the only like music I have out there is like a set player. So it's only old stuff that we used to buy at the gas station, pretty much from the rat cassette rat like I have one that's like Marlborough country music or something like. It's just like a weird like I just at like I just put tapes in. Honestly, Yeah, I mean I listened to a ton of new stuff in the car, but you know, it's like mostly I'm in the when I'm listening to music, I'm in the shop, you know. And also when I listen to music, if I'm enjoying stuff, I like to hear music that I'm comfortable I have to think a whole lot about. So it's always the stuff from what I was younger, Right, It's like nineties country or John Mayer a Counting Crows or like that's I don't have to or if I'm watching a TV show and I'm just like not just turning to vegi out. I don't watch something that's got me like it's right the office, or it's something I've seen ten thousand times. Yeah, do you watch anything good? Man? We watch a lot of a lot of a lot of crime shows, man, a lot of a lot of murder mystery type stuff. That's kind of our jam. Is it your jam? Because your wife wants it to be your jam? No? I love it. I wanted to be I wanted to be a detective before I did this, so I was already in May. Me and my dad watched a lot of it growing up. My wife loves it too. What kind of detective? Homicide? Detective? Is what I wanted to do? Yeah? What would even expose you to the idea you could do that? Was it TV? Then? Probably? It was probably television? Yeah, imagine you're watching The Last of Us on HBO at all? I haven't. I keep hearing about it, though I've heard it's great. It's not a video game? Yes, yeah, it's the the odd Will I like video game? Do you still play? I talked to do you play? In your Kiscane Brown and I hang out a little bit and he's always like, man, you should get to a computer to play on. Should you should? Yeah? And he's such an advocate of playing on you see it's awesome. He's like, you're so fast, you got more? Is that what you play on with? No? I play with a controller? Oh you do? Okay? See why why why is it so much better? Well, I mean it's like, okay, so if you've got a console right like, it has a it has a preset like Graphee, you know. But the computer, it's like you can change the parts out right, like so you can get the newest, nicest graphics card. But I still have dial up? So would that hurt me if I play video? Yeah, that would be deal breaker, no doubt. All right, uncomfortable questions from our listeners to take Coombs number one. How much does Luke Coombs having his wallet right now? Oh? Okay, I have my wallet right now. Most people though that are rich. They'll carry a lot of cash. It's fat. A lot of bills are card wallet. This is elephant. I'm killed on his way here, sliced off about how much money do I have? Is it one dollar? One dollar? I have one dollar times one dollar and I'm not sure what this is it looks like a hotel key. It's a bed bath and beyond coupon from the mail before they went out, He's like, I'm saving this one. We gotta get that tour going. Yeah, one dollar. So that's why we get people in Zurich. Oh yeah, every show I sold out across the world. Yep um okay, that's number one. Number two. Will Luke Combs open a bar in Nashville? I don't know. I'd like to plans yet, No plans, you know. Does Luke Combs hate or like the comparisons to Garth Brooks. I think indifferent, you know. I think people can't help but compare people. I think it's human nature, you know. I mean it's cool, right, I mean I would rather be compared to Garth Brooks than someone who had one it's ang or somebody never got a record deal. So I mean, if I had to choose a comparison, I would say I would I like that one. Nobody ever compares me to Garth Brooks. That's pretty cool to me. Finally, and I don't understand this question, so maybe there's some background to it that you can they're just an idiot. Well, Luke Hombs, ever reveal his songwriting pseudonym. Did you ever write under a different name? Um, I think I have. I have a cut on a Wheeler Walker Junior, Okay, which everybody wrote rescuing him for those under a pseudonym. Yeah, I'm not being ask you to say what you get a joke? I mean it's you could you know, you could probably figure it out pretty easy. I would imagine, you know, because a lot there are a lot of people who wrote under their real names. Are there and your grandkids though you didn't want them to see that you wrote a song called real Sloppy Boobies right for sure? Yes, and that's not that song. But I know Ben, well, we learn a wheeler really well? So, um, did you write with with Ben? Yes? Isn't he like the nicest? Yeah? Really, most like quiet Reserve. He's like, yeah, absolutely, it's totally different than though, and then he goes into character and it's like I don't even know you, bro. Yeah yeah, okay, Luke the new records out, I will say this about you, and I would like for you to lend to this compliment if you don't mind. But I believe it's eighteen tracks you wrote A co wrote on fifteen of them. You are such in challenge a prominent songwriter aside from being the biggest artist. But that means there are a couple of songs that you put on the record that you didn't write, which shows your respect for songwriters in general. Sure, how did you decide to put on it? Because I know you did the Tracy Chamman song fast Bar at least two? Right, how did you decide to put on a song that you didn't write? Um? I just felt like, you know, I wasn't. It's not that I was ever against it, I think, and maybe I was. Maybe that you can pull an old interview clip where I was like, I'll never pute a song that I did. Play the clip where he says he hates other song, and maybe that maybe that clip does exist somewhere of meybeing like, well, I'll never put out a song that, um, that I didn't write. Maybe that is out there, But UM, all I can say is that, you know, I have a lot of really talented friends, and two guys that I write with really frequently are writers on on both of these two songs. And so one of them was written by Eric Church Johnson Singleton and Travis Meadows Um. Obviously everybody knows I'm a big Church fan. Jonathan produced this record with me and the last record with me, and I'm a huge, huge Travis Meadows fan. So when I heard that song, actually just like somebody got a hold in my email I got Jonathan didn't even send it to me, and your Eric didn't send it to me, like it was some third party that was like, hey, you should check this thing out. And I listened to it and just immediately was like, man, this is really great, so we should do it. And Jonathan was producing the record, so I asked him. I was like, man, we should do this, and he was like, yeah, dude, I loved I'd love for you to you know what I mean. Obviously he was stoked about it. I think it's such a compliment to your ego in the way of you wouldn't be able to do what you do if you didn't have a healthy one. Because even himself, I'm like, I'm gonna please buy tickets. I'm I think you should buy tickets to watch me do this, or I think you spend your time you want to listen to my show. I have to have an ego to be successful, sure, because this is a nutty business. It is, no doubt, but there's some awareness and an ego check with you going, there's a couple songs that are really good that deserve to be on this. I don't have to write every song on the record. Yeah, without a doubt. You know, I think, is that getting old? I think so. I think I think there's definitely some maturity to that, you know, um to be able to understand that. You know, there's people that will always write better songs than you. You know, that's inevitable. You know, Um, there are days when you may write better songs than them. But they might write four hundred songs a year and you might I might write twenty or thirty. You know. So obviously there's gonna be songs out there that you know, are inevitably better than something that I could have wrote. Last question, by the way, a new album out today, Getting Old. It's a second it's just a new album, because it's confusing when I say it's a new album Getting Old, It's like it's like the sequel. Yeah. So final question, if I said, okay, look, Luke, they came to me yesterday and said I'm gonna die in an hour. If you don't write me, can you write a hit in an hour? Straight up? Guaranteed hit in one hour? Or gun? In my head, they're gonna kill me. I could write, I could write a something that I feel like was a hit. I felt like it was a hit in an hour. Whether that means it's a hit or not is yet to be seen. Okay, they just told me thirty minutes, Okay, thirty minutes a chance. Okay. I'm not sure who it was. They were in a mask, but I'm leaving it to you. I wouldn't even start writing it. Sorry, Sorry, it's not gonna happen, all right. New records out today, Luke always good to see you, buddy. Likewise, thank y'all. It's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two, we caught up with Arkansas Keith this week. He's been visiting Bobby and his wife Caitlin. In case you don't know who Arkansas Keith is, he was once Bobby's stepdad, So he's been visiting this week for his grandson's spring break, and they've been having a whole lot of fun doing things. But they've also been playing a whole lot of ping pong which Arkansas Keith gave us the update on and he talked about retirement. So just super fun catching up with Arkansas Keith number six. Here's my stepdad for seven years or so. He's in my house right now. He's been staying with the last days. We're still very close. He lives in Arkansas. His name is Keith. That's what we call him, Arkansas Keith. Here he is Keith. Okay, my house right now here he is, Hey, what's going on? What are you guys doing right now? Poor in the poor tournament right now? What what do you mean poor tournament? You and you and your grandson? Yeah, pong tournament. Well, I didn't know at sixty five years old he was still a mean ping pong player. Man, he was good. I've got an Arkansas right back ping pong table and he was like, let's play a little bit. So I haven't opened the case to like the paddles and the balls, and I'm like, okay, I'll take it easy on your old timer. Why my button, it's on my Instagram. You can see us actually playing. Did you ever play ping pong at a high level? No? I know you got a good ping pong table. I know that did you play like I don't know, the seventies and eighties you play a lot of ping pong? Yeah? I did you still feel like you got it? No, I'm not like I used to, but I mean I can still better around. You know, I get better than were you played about you yet it sounds like Toby Keith as good as I want. Hey, So since the last time we've talked, you have fully retired or no, I am fully retired? And what does that mean for you? Every single day? So what are you doing now? Going off? Nice? What I want to do? You do a lot more hunting, fishing, and a lot more walking in the woods and whatever I want to do. So if you wake up on a random Tuesday, what time do you wake up in the morning? Probably around fourth thirty? Wait? Whatired? Hired? That's just what I do. You know I may not get up, but you know I'll be up fourth thirty. Duck seating perfect, you know, hunting then whatever I gotta do? Duck seatons over without just hanging around the house till daylight and co fishing or I love it? Do you feel like in retirement you're really gonna thrive? Like? Were you really looking forward to this. I've really been looking forward to I wanted to retire last year, but anyway, I'm going to do great with it. So you're in Nashville now, you came to see me and Kitlyn, And how has that been so far? I can't believe what the barns are like? Yeah, we shifted the barn from an old, crappy barn to a living place. And so what else is happening with you right now? Just living it? Man? You know, I just me and the dogs and that's it, you know, I just I walked my dog just about every day. And my routine day is get up to see what the world like, go put the dogs, feed them, then I eat and then go from there. How do you feel about aliens? Do you think there's anything bigger than us out there? You know, back when I was younger, I didn't believe that, but nowadays I'm really starting to wonder. I've been reading a lot about Oswell and do a lot of research on Roswell and that's really got me going, you know, and Aurora, Texas and those kind of places what they've crashed. So so you read books on like like UFOs and what do you feel like, your biggest takeaway from those books is the government cover up? For sure. Yeah, I felt that what's in Aurora Lights Aurora is the same kind of thing that happened that Rossville, only it was earlier in the century before we had all the media. Wow, same kind of shield, same kind of aliens, same thing the Rora texts, I believe it was. Are you still reading up on the Civil War? I am? Is that your favorite topic? It's getting to be. I'm really really getting into it. What would you say is your favorite topic to read about? Well, mostly Arkansas, the people in Arkansas that were involved in it. But you know, I mean, I like all the war and to sail, but I'm really getting into the local part of Darling County, Montgomery County and those people have participated in the war for the war too. Other than the war war, Other than the Civil War and aliens? What else do you read about? Sports? Old sports? I'm talking about Herndie Banks, Mickey Man, a little kind of Gas, Mickey Lowlich, Bobby Gibson. You killed the animals, but lately I killed some ducks back in duck season, and I shot some deer, but you know, put the season's over now, So I'm reverting over to patients. Conney fishing a few wall some crappee, nice walleye. What's the best eaton? I like the walleye? Yeah, what's the worst? Eating fish? Bass? Maybe strip or I'm not fond of him. Yeah, all right, well show, just wanted to check in then't talk to you. I said, well, you're over at the house, so I thought like we'd give you a call real quick and see what was going on?

Stuck this thing? Bones were? Yeah, forget the I have a question for Keith, Yeah, go ahead. Okay, Hey Keith, since you're retired, Eddie and Lunchbox they want to retire too, but they're not making any plans. Do you have any advice for them, because clearly this is something you planned for. Are they not saving any money? Yeah? How did you do that? You're better get ready now? I mean, you know, too late to start working on it. Well, what did you do? Just put money aside? Here? Yeah? Money? Are they gonna government gonna pay for retirement plan. You had a retirement plan? It who but that helped me a lot. You know, how long did you work at the mill party? Two years? But I'm my office there. I'm forty four now though, is it too late for me to start that four one? I would start it right now, man, Yeah, today, go down and talk to somebody and just start start a roll by right now. I don't take much, all right. He's got four he's got four kids.

Man, Just go go down talk to somebody. All right, Thank you. We'll see you after I get off work. See you later on alright, man, can't wait? All right? We got full table hot and ready, hear, I have a full table to paint, fun table. All right, See you later man later by Arkansas Key, it's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two. I'm gonna give you all a little bit of insider baseball right here. I believe that's what's called I don't know it. Sounds right, But Bobby shared his top three favorite radio singles on country radio right now. Now what this means is that these songs are currently at country radio. Not every song that artist puts out is sent to country radio. Take for example, Morgan Wallan, who just put out over thirty songs on an album. Not all of those songs are going to go to country radio. They're gonna send the ones that they feel best should be on country radio that they can get to fans and do all the streaming and all that exciting things. But not all of the songs will come here. So these three songs that Bobby chose are ones that are currently at country radio and he's been jamming to them. So just a little insider tip of what a single means rather than just a song that an artist puts out. And you're also only going to hear about five seconds of each of these songs right now because we don't want to go to podcast Jill and so we can't play the full clips. But you're still going to get the whole gist of it. And then if you really like the five second clip you hear, you can go watch it on YouTube or wherever you stream music. Number five, great email, And I didn't put this in the mail bag because it's going to take a full segment to go through this, but they're right. Hello, Bobby Bones. Orn't you mentioned the other day that you don't get to pick what songs are played on the radio. Just wondering which favorite song on the radio is right now? Signed justin. The deal is, yeah, the songs that are played. I don't program the music, but if I want to play something, I can. I just don't want to pick all the music. So but here are my three favorite radio singles right now. I mean the songs that they're trying to get to number one or move up the charts, etc. Number three, massive fan of her. She came on a podcast and she talked about being in town for twelve years before anything worked, and she was just grinding. She stayed the same style and people were like, that'll never work. That's two country, that'll never work. Well when you know she's super talented, and finally people you know, got their eyes and her ears checked. Her name's Haley Whitters. This is my third favorite song right now on the radio. This is called Everything She Ain't all Right. That was number three because the email said, what's your favorite song on the radio right now? That was Haley Whitters Everything she Ain't. Number two is Morgan Evans over for you. This song's real good. This song I think a lot of people can relate to, and it does have to be that same exact story, but that's a very similar story. And so many people messaging me going, I heard that song and I cry, and I think it's a wonderful written song. He sang, it's so good in the studio, it's my number two favorite radio song right now? How long has it been? Old? Honorable mention was Zach Bryan something in the Orange, which is an awesome song, but we still have number one to go. It's easy. What yeah up there? Now? That is not it on the list right here? Good? Yeah? It is a It is a really good one. Gets stuck in my head. What do you think? Hat a little up now? Like Dan maybe? And he guesses no, I say this. I saw her at the opera and she's so cool. We were walking by. I was taking Caitlyn's dad and grandpa and my wife Kaitlyn. We're walking around backsage at the opera. I was kind of given them the tour and she was in a room and I was like, hey, what's going on, and we were just gonna not bother the person because they're getting ready for a show. And they were like, no, come in, come in, come in, I'll meet everybody. And so they spent time with Caitlyn's grandpa, talked with him for a long time, Caitlyn's dad and then us, and then I was like, hey, we should go so you can get ready. They're like, well, okay, Like they're that cool. Okay. They played that song, the song who played they played in this studio and it was like, dang, that's real good. Dang, what is this different? Next level good? They huh, I'm using day as a as a I'm not saying here here she okay, I'm picturing multiple people, but yes, go ahead, anybody Morgan, Ashley McBride, that's it. Oh yeah, Ashley McBride and her new song light On in the Kitchen is my favorite song right now on the radio. So good. I love it. Always law in the Kitchen. It's the best Bits of the week with Morgan. Number two. Amy shared some personal news on the show last week, and this week she's sharing a little bit of what's happened in her life in the past year or so. One of those things being that she had to take a co parenting online class and it wasn't like optional, she had to take it to in order to do some the things that were happening. So this is Amy sharing what that whole experience was. Like Number four. Last week here Amy was talking about how she's getting a divorce and we were very sensitive to talking about it for a long time. There's a lot of reasons that we weren't able to talk about it, kids, legal stuff, privacy issues. But we did and it's out and a lot of people are reaching out there. They've been fantastic about at least to me from what I've seen, it been cool with you. Yeah, anybody not been cool? I mean yeah. I try to just swipe on by did meet their name most people, and I feel like I'm supposed to see these comments are the ones that are like, oh man, I'm going through this too, and so that's where it's like, oh wow, Like it's because it's not easy to navigate, and I feel for anybody that's having to do it. And you know, some of the stuff that I've done over the last six months that I have not been able to talk about is like how I was really nervous I was going to fail my co parenting divorce course that I had to take. It's a four hours making you take it, you say, have to take the law. Oh really, so every stage it is different. But the state of Tennessee at least like when you go before like the judge. So there's courts that are looking at everything and this has to be completed and you have to pass a test after you take the four hour course. And it doesn't it's not one of those where you can just you know, act like you took the four hours. There's a timer, so it's timing. It knows yeah, each page, like you're on there until you've completed it and watched the videos. Kind of questions as though an example, well you watch so for example, it would be like you they take you through a scenario of a like a video, a reenactment or something of a family where the co parents are not being nice to each other and how they're handling the situation is not necessarily going to be beneficial for the kids, and you have to watch the whole scenes so you know, like hey, then the question would be like, hey, what did you know the dad stay wrong in this case? Like what could he have done better? And then you pick the answer. But sometimes I felt like my core like believed like stuff I believe in how I would handle it. It was a little bit different than I guess what the law is saying. So I was so nervous I was going to answer stuff wrong. I only missed two questions though, how do have any I don't remember four? That's what I was gonna say. Oh no, it was a full blown test, like it was four hours over fifty questions. Well, probably how'd you feel about the acting in the scenes? Well I thought that people, Well what I wanted to know it's I'm assuming it was reenacting. Yeah, I had to be let us know when the kids no, no, no. What I meant to say was I know they're reenacting, but I don't know if these are like real families that they pulled their husband and wives where they're like, hey, we know you're going through this. This is awesome. Oh really yeah they did a good job that I was gonna ask did you watch it and we're like this corny acting. Maybe that's a good guy could get Well, that's good. Somebody who's getting divorced see it. It's like, wow, look, has anything happened with your acting career. No, I'm still taking lessons, but I have not auditioned for anything either. But I'm trying to get through some big life things right now. But I'm still consistent in my practice and that's important to me. Was missing two questions. It's still a past test, right, Yeah, I've passed, so that was good. So I've got that and you know, you know Ben how to do it too, and we're co parenting in a way that I think that course actually helped us too. It taught us a lot, but so did our co parenting therapists or counselor. And the kids are the main priority. What if you don't take the test, they make you get back together like the law, Sorry, you have to do it. But if you don't, like, well looks like you got to be married. Still. Well, so even once you file, there's like a ninety day, like nothing can really happen even for ninety days because they want you to. Yeah, so to make sure nobody's filing out of any sort of you know, angst or anger or anything. And I wonder how many people that ninety days actually works for them to Oh, I'm sure a lot. Yeah yeah, but can you imagine if you did it was an instant Yeah yeah, I'll take a divorce please, and I'll take some guawk and then all of a sudden, okay, you did out all the time. What I don't understand though, is like when we had kids, you know, when we were just like parenting to begin with, we don't have to take a test. We should take a test when we just have the first kid, not just like they should lock up our private parts and they can't unlock until you take a test about having kids. Right. Well, so that's how I felt about the adoption process. Like if I was able to get pregnant, which we had fertility stuff so I wasn't, But if I had been, I would have just walla had a baby. But adoption, no, I had to like all kinds of things, paper work, this, that homestead. They can control that, right, And I get it. That's valid. You can't just be handing out kids to people, right, But it is a little like sometimes it's just we need will you have a baby, take a test before you have it? Wila. Again, you don't get the key to your private right until that's what it is. We're all wearing contraptions around our waist, all right, and then you know, don't you don't have one on one days gratulations for you? Yeah, I only got two wrong. We're all good on that front. Yeah, Just for anyone that's frustrated by the process of having to take a co parenting or divorce course online like mandatory it Actually you can learn from it. So lean in, ask questions, want to be better, because then you can be amicable. There you go, heard it from her. Maybe if you're the more you know, it's the best Bits of the week with Morgan. Number two an awesome interview on the show. This week we had Three Doors Down and Candlebox stop by. Well Brad from Three Doors Down and Kevin from Candlebox. They came on and they not only performed a few of their songs, but they also talked about their joint tour which just got announced this week. Super exciting news and we just love both of these guys. They were super fun and shared a lot of their cool stories. They are rock stars, so they have a lot of fun stories to share. So here's that interview with Bobby number three on the Bobby Bones Show. Now Brad Arnold of Three Doors Down and Kevin Martin enough Candle Box. You know, guys, I know we're here today to announce a tour and this is basically the only tour I would ever pay money for. Yes, I just want you guys to know, like when I know, Brad, bradut that we're friends. Now, if I saw you get the grocery store, I go up to and be like, what up, buddy? Absolutely, but Kevin, I had met you. Yeah, but I grew up you know, listening to the Candlebox like crazy. So it's really really great to spend time with you here. When they said you guys were willing to come in, I said, how much will it costs? Me? Like that's how big a fan I am. So Brad, let's start with this Three Doors Down going out doing the tour and how do you find and Kevin and Candle Box, Like, how did this tour come together? Well, we actually played a show together last year. It was last year, and I think we talked about a little bit then and uh, the time and kind of work definitely, and we're both going out this summer and I couldn't think of a better combination. When they asked me about it, I was like, yeah, because who's they who? Well, I guess yeah, people got it? Are people called it? Because whoever they are like it? Like whoever they are like it? And so when you guys go do these shows, why are you playing any new music at all? We all we actually are trying. We're playing We have one song that we put together just on the last tour, and uh, we need to put a couple more together between now and NIM will see how that goes. But we will play a little bit of new media too much though, that's my point. Yeah, not too much. Did you know, just a little bit if you got something exactly, but you know, one or two and then we nostalgia owl exactly. That's I mean, Kevin, So, how you know we listen to Candlebox growing up? Your voice to me was that of like a quiet intensity, like together constantly. Didn't know where I was gonna go. How in the world, because I have so many friends that are now forty forty five that used to sing and they have to like sing hard anymore? How are you not talking your songs at this point? Um? I drink a lot of whiskey. Um, And that's no lie. I mean I I years ago. You know, I never did a lot of drugs or anything. And I started singing when I was six years old and choir and I always sang all the way through high school because you know, it's nice to have that elective that you know, you don't really have to pay attention to. But I never really wanted to be a singing rock band, and I was a drummer, and I got kind of stuck with this gig with Canterbox. And that's no lie, That's why I get stuck with the gig. Yeah, I got stuck with the gig as the lead singer of a reluctant lead singer of a rock and roll band. So the first record, I didn't really know what I was doing, and I went through a lot of issues with my voice because I just didn't understand how to perform live. And then over the years getting used to what what I was capable of doing with it and understanding how it worked, and getting away from you know, liquors that are like Vodkas or whatever that kind of draw your voice out. I started drinking whiskey in like two nineteen ninety eight and it changed everything. Now I don't. I'm joking like with a lot of which making a note here start during a whiskey today after the show. But I do I have you know, I sip on it during during the shows and I found that it helps. But I do take care of it. Man. I don't smoke, I don't do drugs, and I'm relatively healthy. Kevin, are you ever anywhere? And because I know the answer for Brad, because I hear it every time I'm in Kroger three doors down. It's like rocking on time. You ever somewhere and you hear your A Canna Walks song, You're like, dang, this is like a family place. Now. Back in the day, this would have never been played. It that John's pizzeria. Yeah, I heard it once in a Walmart. It's funny. It's always far behind. I mean, you know, it's that's the song. It's been paying my rent for thirty plus years now, but um, yeah, I do, and it's it still feels good. I remember the first time I heard it. We were outside of Seattle. We were in Las Vegas and m it came on the radio station and you know, there's nothing like that feeling when you hear your song on the radio the first time and he's like, man, I've made it, And even if you don't, it's just somebody else is playing your song, and uh, it's a weird feeling, but it's funny when you're in a grocery store stick. So yeah, you know, Brad with three Doors down, what were the lean years like when it was I don't know if we're gonna be able to do this, like, well, how is the living? Were in a van. We were pretty blessed to always, you know, when Kryptonite came out, it was successful pretty quick, you know. But at the same time, you know, nine months from that, we were prepared to quit because we had been a pretty successful little local band. Even though we never toured and we were from a little town, we did really good around there. And when kind of like you know, you go through phases and epend it kind of gets wore out on it. You know, me and Matt our original guitar player, we were both like six months away. Was like, all right, if we don't do something pretty quick and we have something substantial happening, we're gonna go to college. And because we were just teenagers and by the grace of God within that time, like uh CPRN down in Mississippi started playing the song and it became a hit and we got signed and and I mean, but we were we were on the vertical of giving up ourselves. You know, you don't hear your accent when you sing that, which is we British people too. For the most part, they'll be like, why why go? And I'm singing there like hello, here I am today. Do you ever hear that? People talk to you and they're like, I didn't expect you to be so country time. I feel like if you guys came out now, you would be like a country, like a rock. Like if you existed right now, it's three doors down, brand new, you'd be here. We would be absolutely absolutely well, Kevin, that's not the case with you guys. You guys would still be going. You're not You're from like the Northwest though, right, well I was. I was born in Chicago, but I was raised in the South. I grew up in San Antonio, Texas. Oh you did. Yeah, So every now and then you'll hear me slip into a little bit of y'all and notnot. But I moved to Seattle when I was fourteen in nineteen eighty four, and um, and that was my dad took a job with an old boss and that was And at the first concert I saw there was Chris Cornell playing drums with Sound Garden as a three piece, and he was singing like a banshee and I was like, man, what is going on in this city? You know? And uh, and that was it for me. I was immediately enamored and inspired by just great music from that beautiful little town. I feel like you guys came out and you could correct me, because this is how any note like after the whole grunge thing happened, and I felt like you guys were kind of unfairly compared to it because it wasn't really the exactly the same time, but because you were from Seattle, people like, it's another Seattle band. Did do you feel like that? Is that observation is somewhat accurate? Very accurate. I mean, it was an easy label to throw on a band like Candlebox because the whole city was considered grunge. You know, we're we're about five years in age younger than a lot of those guys as well, so you know, I was sixteen years old working in a shoe store when Chris Cornell was coming in to get flyers to hang up on the walls. You know. So we did come around a lot later than those guys, so it hindered a little bit of our career. I mean, you know, we were never media darlings like the rest of the grunge band, so it kind of was like we kind of had to beat our beat the door down ourselves, which was fun, you know. I mean here we are thirty years later, still doing it. But everything about turning into a boy band though about that time too, you could have easily flipped over it and learn to dance. I should have. Did you you ever sing any other kind of music? Like? Growing up? Like inquired? Like you probably could have been a good, uh stage singer? Did you do that at all? I'm a first tenor. Um, I did a lot of I did a lot of drama in high school because it was where the girls were. Um. I always took the electives where there were girls. UM. I'm a big fan of so um. But yeah, I sang in drama, UM, and I sang in choir. I did. I've done pieces in Italian French. I did a barbershop quartet with my brother, which was a lot of fun for a couple of years. You know, did you have to drop all that once you guys got cool in candlebox because you don't want to I don't want to see a candleboxing in a barbershop quartet, I'll be oyest not that time. No, I was. I stopped that right around the age of seventeen. Yeah, when you are in a band that is coming from Seattle and obviously you have all those influences around, you were able to see them as a kid, like did you ever see Nirvana play what did Yeah? So I saw them play Radio Shack, the notorious video tape that's going around that was down in Tacoma. Um. I saw a lot of the early Screaming Trees, gigs, Um Grunt Truck, Skinyard sound Garden, saw the movie. I was at the Mookie Blaylock show when they par Jam. Yeah, I mean it. You know, at the time, a lot of people just assumed that Seattle was this massive metropolis. It was a tiny little town man, and it's like you know, you, I think when I moved there, maybe a million people in the entire Seattle community. But all the venues were within a mile of one another, so a lot of them were all ages venues which you could go and see these bands play, and some of them that were bars you'd have to have a fake ID to sneak into. But yeah, I was. I was fortunate enough. And like I said, I worked at Fluevog Shoes, which was where Susan Silver, who had Silver Management. She was managing Alice and Chains, Sound Garden, Screaming Trees, a bunch of those bands. I worked with her. So those guys all come in to get flyers and stuff for the shows, and that's how I met a lot of those musicians as well. Brad, you're putting this towards the three Doors down away from the sign anniversary tour with Candlebox. How long who goes? Do you have a like a baby that comes on first? Or does it go straight Candlebox? That maybe too much for me. It's a it's just it's wow, that's it. Huh, That's it's straight, like let's go. Ye. So they're early yeah, yeah, So when the ticket says the show starting, you want to be there for that part show starting? YEA twenty five minutes after you missed the baby. So, Brad, you've been playing with these these guys, obviously with three doors down for a long time. Can you guys just like look at each other and do a chin move or an here and then you know, now you've communicated so much over such a long period of time, a little bit like or like you get them look like it was a wrong note? That's a song. Wrong note? Yeah, there's more wrong notes. Does that ever happen where you look like? What was that? Yeah? Are you? Are you the alpha? Uh? No, I think we're all just kind of Rod's kind of there. Yeah, if there, if there's an alpha, I think in our band, it's it's great. Our drummer who'll just take a trophy has to Yes, yes, he's We definitely looked at him to be the band leader. Do they ever talk? Do you guys talk to each other on the mic? Not where the crowd can hear it. I'm always concerned that microll you gonna put something out, So we've stopped using that because I'd be like, hey, Eddie, h fans, I can see a winner. I'm afraid that I'll go over the top, So we stop using that. Now I have one back there by Gregg that I have a little stalt box that I can talk to my monitor guy. The band guys can't hear me, but my monitor guy and my front of house guy can hear me, because sometimes, um, sometimes, you know, I have a lot to say to my monitor guy sometimes. And I have a new monitor guy, and I have a lot of nice things to say to him, and I in the past I've had some less than nice things to say, But I like sometimes I'm one of my pit peeves is when my feet start vibrating. If the sub starts running too hard, I can kind of it messes with a die from of the mic, and sometimes it messes with your vocal chords, you know, just so much vibration. So if I can fill it through my feet, I'd be like, hey, hey, Curtis, you want to back down a little bit, buddy, you know? And he will and U that's the only people that can hear through mine. What song does this? The three Doors down crowd sing back the loudest um say here without You and Kryptonite. The thing about here without you is who sings it back? Because here and there we've got stuck on some shows, and uh that really, if you just looked at the list, you're like three Doors Down is all that. But you know, on those shows we play some of our deeper stuff on our records, and some of our deeper stuff a little heavier than stuff you hear, and so it we fit in those shows just fine. But it's so awesome to see like this big, gnarly like biker looking just like rip your arms, dude. He will be the most fervent singer of here without you in the crowd. It's amazing, Brad. We play some here without you. We will all right here, Brad here, Brad Arnold from Three Doors Down. By the way, we're announcing the big tour right now. It's the Three Doors Down away from the Sun Anniversary tour with Candlebox. I will be there. Are you guys coming here? We are? Okay? Good? Yeah, all right, yeah, I'll be there. I don't know where. I'll be under the stage, drinking the sweat of my favorite artists. All right, here we go, this is m Ray. We good. Now are you slip into the second verse? Still intense as ever? Come on, sound good. I'm worried asking that guys, just seeing this early in the morning. I was like, I'll just talk to him. You give me goosebumps, man. When you killing it, dude, I'm singing it like four times in the car on the way in it down. That's what I did have a morning driving into the show. I mean, like talking to myself. People I think I'm crazy because I'm also loosening up. I got hours and hours of the show to do. All right, there he is Brad Arnold from Three Doors Down. A nice shot. Okay, Kevin, let's switch it up. It's your turn now. Baby, that's what I call him, baby, Baby, Listen, I grew up. It's the first time we've had Kevin in from Candlebox, and Brad's been so gracious to play like shows with us and be on this show. And we did that. You've been so gracious to have me. We did the Three Doors Down anniversary of the album together. We shot that. So I'm a I'm a big big Brad fan, big three Doors Down fan, big big Bobby's fan. To Kevin, I need you to be a big Bobby fan. Now, I tell you what I think. I'm all right, so I like to hear what you do. Um, can you do like a verse and chorus so far behind. Absolutely absolutely, I'd have dropped that like five times. I feel like no fear, no fear jump right in. Hey Kevin, are you OCD type guy? I am, I'm very I very much am so where I'm trying to fix it a little bit. So with you and your ocity tendencies. Are they cleaning? Are they straightening? What is it that's affecting you? It's pretty much everything for me, Like I on the bus. I don't know about y'all, but like we have I send out specific rules, no shoes in the hallway, nothing left on account. You go full me mall. Yeah, it's it's full on, like and I have a special glass cleaner spray that I use on countertops and everything. It's like disinfectant stuff. Like I'm I'm super parani. We have ionizers on the bus to keep people from getting sick. It's good for you. I'm super super crazy. I'm a bigger fan, a bigger fan. Um So Lunchbucks here doesn't know a lot about music. It doesn't even like music really in general. It's heard that song before. Yeah, I know he doesn't care about music. He's like when he runs, he runs to nothing, He's just it's just bizarre. Had him a beautiful man, I had him. Watched the wood Stock sixty nine, Yes, and then you watched the one on was it not? What did you watch ninety nine? I've watched part of it, which was the crazy Were you at ninety nine? Were you? Oh? You were ninety four? So what was ninety four? Like? It was amazing? It was awesome. Yeah, it was beautiful man. Well, we we were on tour with Metallic at the time, so we we had to get there from because they added Friday Night at the last minute, so it was like bands like collect A Soul Live Us and then the Violent Films. We were the headliners on Friday Night, so we had to get from Kansas City to um to wherever that I think it was not Woodstock, New York, but we I think it was even further north um by Friday from a Wednesday and the Metallic was playing Saturday night, so we kind of had to rush ourselves there. But I remember I stayed up most of the two day drive because I was so excited. I mean, it was exciting touring with Metallica, but like I knew I was going to play this amazing three hundred thousand people show, Like I couldn't sleep, man, I was. I was so excited to get there. And we got there and they wouldn't let you watch the other bands because the stage would turn and they wanted you to experience the three hundred thousand people wave of excitement. Man, it was one time. It was beyond Yeah. I will never ever ever forget it. Did you have any friends that played that disaster ninety nine one? Well, yeah, a lot of a lot of the bands that played it, we were close to what did they call you and be like, yo, dude'd be glad you aren't here. No, but if you'd run into him on the road afterwards, like you know, months later, to be dude, that was a mess, you know. But I think it was just you know, when you're when you're greedy like that and you're going for the money and you are charging what they were charging, like ten dollars from bottles of water or something something stupid. Even they do now at every NFL game. We're like, no, man's yeah, but it was. Yeah. I did. The guys in the Offspring we played a show with them about six months after, and they were like, man, it was a mess. Well let's talk about the tour. So Brad, you put this together. You're all over the place, tickets, Quandselle on Friday this week. What do you want people to know, Brad? If they're on the fence about this tour, come come to this, get all the fence coming. It's gonna be a great It's gonna be a great time. I'm excited about this. I really this is gonna be a great show. It's gonna be a show that you leave on the way back to the parking lot with you buddies high five. And I think, Man, I think it's gonna be a great show. I'm excited about it. Are you playing all the hits? We are? Yeah. I can honestly say I haven't been this excited about a tour in a while, because if you said no, I wasn't coming. He's like, I know, we're playing no hits, deep cuts. Nobody knows if we're thinking about maybe, of course playing the hits and stuff, but last year and we're not gonna do it quite like we did one of the Middle Life twentieth year anniversary. We played the entire record, just front to back. We played other stuff too, thinking about doing that in some dimension, maybe like playing the whole record, but just slicing some other stuff in there as well.

You single, Zach Bryant at number four, just to Landy Wilson at three, I got and a number two to Luke Combs number one, Travis Tritt, Morgan Walla. That's the top five according to this guy right now. I mean I'd probably put Kane I'd put Kane Brown into the top five. Definitely. I put Kane Brown up there right now. Otherwise I don't only have a problem with the top five. I mean, Luke Brian, why so I didn't have a single on the radio right now? Yeah, but I mean, he's on TV and I don't think he's torning either right now. Chill and I don't think he's on TV right now. He's taping. I don't think he's on TV right now. True, true, Okay, still working though, you know, bad argument? What crushed my player last month? Or yeah listen, no one's saying he's not a superstar, but this is like calling him lazy man. No, no, no, this is like saying, look, Kentucky's always been a terrible basketball team. No, no, no, there, they are massive and have been for a long time. With the last few years, haven't the last couple of months, he hasn't been up there to make the list, but I'm sure he will coming early next month. And then Bailey likes, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Z that Brant Oh yeah everything that's crazy man, Yeah, I mean Zack Bryan was it guy that blew up on YouTube and then took YouTube over to TikTok and then turned TikTok into massive mainstream success. It's been really cool to see. All right, well I on Nashville. I can't wait till they release it. It's like every week we wait for the polls. I was number one this week. It's the Best Bits of the Week with Morgan number two. And we did a draft this week, which feels very appropriate given that we're in March madness time and a lot of exciting sports are going on. We did a draft, and everybody loves the Bobby Bone Show drafts, but this one was of hard words to spell. Listen, there's a lot of hard words that are really difficult for me to just speak, let alone spell. So I had a little flow up during the draft, and I would like nobody to hold that against me. That's all I'm gonna say. Okay, yep, thank you. Number one time for a draft, we're drafting words that are hard to spell. Amy first overall pick in the draft? What word are you drafting? Is the word that is hard to spell. I feel like everyone will feel me on this one restaurant. Yeah, oh come on, that'd have been my first pick. It's my one. So what we'll do is we'll I'll pick these little teams of three and then you vote Bobby Bones dot com. It's very easy that don't just pick the one best word, it's the whole team. Yeah, lunchbox, words that are hard to spell? You have the second pick, what do you have? Yeah, vacuum. It's pretty good when the WU gets me. Sometimes I think it's cum me vacuum, but it's vacuum. I don't know that. I couldn't tell you. I didn't know if it had two cs and two US. I don't know, Eddie. Look, guys, the hard part about this game was I wrote everything down, but I didn't know how to spell any of them. So nice, this is the hardest one phenomenon. Let's try. Let me try him try can do it? Oh, it is a hard one phenomenon Phi nam n O M phenomenon I N O M. Yeah, I don't know. Man, Oh, good, we go good? Whoever uses that word? I don't. I mean, I don't try to spell that phenomenon. I'm never I don't realise that that's what I'm saying. I definitely don't write it, or if I do, it's only on my computer so I can tell me and then I try to hit it and make it correct, just to give me the morgan, what do you got? I don't eat this, but I can never spell it when writing, and everybody always has an argument there there are two different ways to spell it and it's blone. That's a good one. That's good. Logney's a good one, not b o l o. Any Y has a first name, it's oh no, that's Oscar Oscar myerr, that's all I've been spelling it wrong forever, a stupid song. Okay, it's to me. I have the final pick. I'm gonna pick charcuterie. Oh, isn't a charcuterie board? That's impossible, and some I don't even how to say it. Really, you go to the restaurant. I think I'm saying it right now because I've been practicing it. Is that you say it? Charcuterie, Yeah, charcuterie, charcuterie boards. Cheese is basically meat. You get meat on a charcuter and cheese. Yeah, it's a or nuts. It's like a spread SHARKOUTI is my first overall pick. I'd probably say that more than I say phenomenon if I'm being honest. It's true. All right, So now we'll go backwards and I have the first pick. Here words that are hard to spell. I think I'm gonna go with definitely because is it definitly or is there no e on the end of definite? Definite definite. I don't know the answer to that, but I'm gonna go. Definitely is my second word, Morgan. Words are hard to spell. I always get this one wrong because it has the silent in the beginning. It's pneumonia, ohia, phenomia. That'll get you. Yeah, eddie, guys, karaoke, good luck, Okay, Yeah, yeah, that was tough. That's a good one, lunchbox. Yeah, embarrassed. Yeah yeah. Spell e M B A R E S S D. I don't think it's rights are and there's two How do you know? How do you know? Because I have a right run of me because I spell wrong every time Amy, I got license l I c E n S. I don't know that's it? Is it? I spell a round every single time me like cat dog. License is not that easy exactly Again, I'm with you, l I C E n S. I'm not a great speller. Is that it may not be right? I don't know. I don't know either is right. Yeah, Okay, Well there you go. Two rounds, and I guess I'm kneeling the troubles with that one. We're drafting words that are hard to spell. Amy has restaurant A plus and license all right, listen, it's hard, h Amy, what do you have? I mean, gosh, I feel like someone might have been taken, so I don't know. Well xylophone, Well, yeah, that's impossible. X y l a phone? Right? Is it is? That? Is it that simple? I don't know, Mike? Is it? I met some people? Gets a z he it's thank you? What? What? What's the problem? I just love words that you're just taking words that you don't even use, like of course he's last night we played Eli on My House. Bad. Yeah, man, I'm bad man. I gotta fragilistic, explodocious man. There's a couple that I struggle with. M I don't know that make gross people out. I'm not gonna do took this to heart and he's picking words he only uses. Day Absolutely everybody got thrown strategy, go ahead, what would gross people out? I'm gonna go with entrepreneur. That's so good. That's a good one, day, Eddie. It's not a hard word, but it's hard for me, and I bet people agree with me on this one. Beautiful I had. That's a good one. Morgan. I think I'm gonna go with colonel because it's actually spelled like colonel, but it's colonel like a popcorn kernel. No different, Those are two different men. Yeah they are, but it's pronounced colonel. No, no, no, there's two ways to spell colonel. One with a K, katie r any popcorn colonel. But when you when you say like a commander of an army colonel. Yeah, but it's a spelled colonial basically what I'm not wrong, right, but he's not wrong. I think the way she said it sounds sign. The way she said it she didn't mean. She said it like she would say she didn't mean it. Thank you, that's what. Maybe, yes, colonel colonel, that was a struggle. Okay, Finally, these are all words hard to say too, apparently not just hard to or hard to describe. I'm gonna go with narcissistic. Oh impossible, naarc No, what's after the sick? But also you give, you give license a little, but you give beautiful a good one. Just get it's a common one. Everyone always questions themselves when they do beautiful. Yeah, okay, here we go. Amy's team is restaurant license and xylophone, lunchboxes, vacuum embarrass and entrepreneur. Eddie's phenomenon karaoke and beautiful Morgan is Bologny pneumonia and Colonel I'm not sure which one, and then I'm Charcouterie definitely a narcissistic Wow. Good vote, doesn't be hard to vote Bones dot Com pick one and we'll pick a winner. Thank you, guys. It's the Best Bits of the Week with Morgan number two. I hope you guys had an enjoyable weekend.
