First up, we go around the room and discuss rat birth control, missing Kit Kats, a man busted for murdering his wife decades later, and TV shows we are catching up on. Mitchell Tenpenny stops by with life-changing news...he’s about to be a dad!!! He opens up about getting ready for a baby girl and we listen to the emotional moment he found out with a surprise from his wife. Bobby shares what the first few weeks of fatherhood are really like and why having a daughter changes everything. Mitchell also talks about writing his new song with Teddy Swims, why he fought to keep it, and what’s next musically as he gears up to hit the road with HARDY. Lauren Alaina joins Bobby for another HILARIOUS game of "Guess The Celeb".

| 0:02.6 | Guaranteed Human. |
| 0:05.5 | Hey, so lunchbox got a little tickle on his throat, so he went home. |
| 0:13.9 | So he's not in this part two, at least not this part. |
| 0:17.3 | Okay, around the room, Amy. |
| 0:19.4 | So Washington, D.C., they're launching a $130,000 pilot program to |
| 0:26.6 | reduce rat population, and what they're doing is they're putting the rats on birth control. |
| 0:32.6 | Wow. A pilot? It's a pilot program. |
| 0:35.7 | They're not flying. Like, if it works there, like if it works in D.C., they might, you know, launch it across the country. |
| 0:44.1 | But they put the birth control in like some bait and then the rat gets it and then they can't get pregnant. |
| 0:51.2 | Because did you know how long it takes a rat to get pregnant and give birth? |
| 0:55.2 | No idea. |
| 0:56.8 | It's fast, like three weeks. |
| 0:59.1 | Wow. |
| 1:00.0 | So that's why controlling the rat population is important. |
| 1:03.9 | And so now they're going to see if they can give them birth control and they won't get pregnant. |
| 1:09.7 | I don't think that'll be needed in a lot of places, but in the cities where the population is very dense. Yeah, like DC or New York or... That's so sad. Like, what do the rats want to have their first kid? I know. And then they're not by choice. They're on birth control and they can't have their kid. Rats are prolific breeders with a gestation period of 21 to 23 days. A female rat can become pregnant every four to five days when in heat and become pregnant again within 48 hours of giving birth. Yeah, see, it happens fast. Females reach maturity at 8 to 12 weeks, meaning they can start breeding very quickly. Dang. So, yeah, now they're going to just think they're eating a little snack and it's going to be... They're not being killed. Birth control. Although, although they're rats. Well, they don't want to kill the rats. Because there are good things that rats do. It's part of the ecosystem. Exactly. That's why they just want to limit the births. And so I don't know. It just was interesting to me. |
| 2:01.1 | So not all the poison. |
| 2:02.7 | Okay. |
| 2:03.0 | So some of them will still have their babies. Yes. Because not every rat is going to get the bait. But it's just to control the population. And I don't know. I just had never heard of anything like this before. And I was like, wow. It's interesting. Picturing the meeting where that happened. like how about we give them birth control. |
| 2:17.9 | Rats are natural scavengers that clean up organic waste, nutrient recyclers, and crucial |
