Bobby Bones Finds Humor In Preparing For Fatherhood

I’ve seen a lot of characters pass through the studio, but Bobby Bones might take the cake when it comes to baby prep. You can catch him and the gang weekday mornings, 5:00 AM to 9:00 AM, right here on Sioux Falls’ 99-1 and 100.5 Kickin’ Country. And let me tell you, Bobby’s journey into fatherhood has been nothing short of hilarious.

First off, Bobby has discovered the true VIP of pregnancy: the pillow. His wife got one of those giant pregnancy pillows, and Bobby decided it was too good to pass up. No more knees bumping in the night—he’s out here snoozing like a king. It got so bad, his wife had to order a second one just to get her own pillow back. Only Bobby could turn baby prep into a sleep upgrade.

Now, instead of a full nursery makeover, Bobby’s plan is basically, “Eh, a corner will do.” Eddie had to step in and explain the basics: bassinets, changing tables, you know, the essentials. Meanwhile, Bobby’s still trying to figure out if a shower can be replaced by just asking for cash. (Spoiler alert: Amy was not having it. She reminded him that people want to celebrate the joy, not fill his Venmo.)

And let’s not forget the great closet clean-out. His man cave is staying, no question there. But one room stuffed with jerseys—high school, novelty, you name it—is getting the boot to make space for diapers and baby gear.

My years in this business has taught me one thing: radio people are full of surprises. And with Bobby Bones, the surprise is that pillows might just be his favorite part of fatherhood… so far.

Tune in weekday mornings, 5 to 9, on Kickin’ Country—because you never know what Bobby will come up with next.
