This is an I-Heart podcast.

It's the best bits of the week with Morgan number two.

What's up, y'all?

Happy weekend.

If you're listening to this on the weekend,

maybe you're listening to this during the week,

but this is the Best Bits podcast.

I'm Morgan, and this is just the Bits. So if you missed part one,

I did an interview with Lunchbox. We caught up on life. He talked about his kids. We also talked

about some foods, had a very strong debate about chips. Lunchbox even gave me the lowdown

on how he feels based on a romance poll. So pretty interesting stuff.

Make sure you check that out on part one.

This is part two where you just get to hear the bits without much interruptions besides me telling you what's happening.

So coming in at number seven, Bobby helped out a listener named Merle who called into the show, wanted to surprise his wife with some news on the show. It was a really cute moment, and Bobby helped him out. So definitely check this out. Number seven. Hey, Merle. Yes, sir. How you doing? It's Bobby. Hey, Bobby. I'm doing great. Yourself? Yeah, doing pretty good. I got a question for you. Yes, sir. I'm reading here that you want to surprise your wife for the trip to Nashville. Is she around right now? No, actually, I had to take some clothes to the dry cleaner, so she's not with me, so she won't know about this, Bill, whatever happens happens. She doesn't even know we're going to it. So to our listeners right now, today is Thursday, May 12th. This is after the show on Thursday, and I saw

Merle's call. And so just know this is recorded on Thursday. And you want to tell her on Friday,

which if people are listening to this, today is Friday. Is that what the plan is? Yes. Yes. Today is

Friday. And we're leaving at 8 o'clock to land in Nashville around 9 o'clock Nashville time.

And she doesn't know any of this. So, and why are you surprising her? It's our 35th wedding anniversary. Wow. That's nice. That's awesome. Okay, I want to get back to that in just a second. So, okay, so it's what we're going to do. We're going to play this on the radio. and at 820 or so central people are hearing this 920 Eastern

uh what we're going to do. We're going to play this on the radio. And at 8.20 or so central, people are hearing this, 920 Eastern. So just know that that's when it's going to happen. So make sure she's hearing this on the radio right now. Can you be sure to get her to a radio or by a phone? By 920? Yeah, because you're Eastern Time, right? Yeah, I'm Eastern Time. Yes, sir. This is on the air, Merle. I would like for you to say whatever you'd like to say to her or about her or whatever the surprise is. Have at it, buddy. Hey, I'll set you up. Hey, I'll set you up. Ladies and gentlemen, here's Merle. Hey, Kimberly, this is Merle. I'm sure you recognize my voice. we're on our way to work. I'm sure you're surprised to hear this. Tonight, we're leaving for Nashville for our 35th wedding anniversary. You've always wanted to go. That's pretty cool. And you've never been, right, Merle? No, sir. What do you guys plan to do when you're in town? That's a good question. I've been hitting my son up. He's been to Nashville several times. In fact, he met you two years ago on Broadway. And so I've been hitting him up to say, where do we want to go and what do we want to do?

On Broadway, you sure wasn't an impersonator? Okay, so you guys are coming to town. Let me see here. I'm going to do something. So Friday night, I'm looking at my app here. Friday night, let's say. Well, you don't get into... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So let me try Saturday. Amy, where should we send them to dinner if I can find? Oh, that's nice. Well, it's just... You don't have to do anything like that.

I just wanted the surprise.

Oh, he knows he doesn't.
