Chapter 1: What is discussed at the start of this section?
This is an iHeart Podcast.
Guaranteed human. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal, but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque.
Chapter 2: What are the implications of the enhanced games?
Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year.
Within probably 10 days, I put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth.

My mother-in-law spent years sabotaging our relationship until karma made her pay for it. All right, Sophia, tell me about how we started this story.
She moved in for two weeks, lasted five days, left a mess, and then pressed her ear against their bedroom door and burst in screaming.
When kicked out to a hotel, she called her son-in-law's workplace, pretending his partner had been rushed to the hospital by ambulance.
She...
faked a medical emergency? And spoiler, that was just the beginning. To find out how it ends, listen to the OK Storytime podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Chapter 3: How did Morgan's mother-in-law sabotage their relationship?
We got a lot of segments to share, but first, I do encourage you to check out part one, part three this weekend with Mike D. We had a what's in the box moment over in part one, and part three is always listener questions, so check those out. Otherwise, if you just want to get caught up on the show, then let's get into it. Woohoo!
This week, Bobby shared he has a huge surprise for somebody on the show, and it is also a life changer, which is crazy. And everybody on the show thinks it's for them. So we did some elimination rounds. But after the end of this week, we are now down to two finalists of who this life changing surprise could be for. Number seven. Three people are left.
One of you guys is going to get a huge surprise. It's either going to be Lunchbox Morgan or Eddie. Yep. Hold on. I'm saying a prayer. Oh, should I tell Ray what it is since Ray's out? No, stop doing that. Yeah, that's not cool. Stop telling people. Can I text you what it is? Yeah. Just don't show my camera. We have a surprise for, and it started off with all five of them, and I eliminated Amy.
I'm very sorry. She now knows what it is. Eliminated Ray. So I'm going to let Ray know here. And so you three, one of you are going to get something that's going to change your life. Ray, tell me when I can go to the camera. No, you can go to the camera. I got the phone at my heart. I haven't texted him yet. Oh, you haven't? Okay. Okay, I'm going to text. I'm putting the phone in my pants.
It's safe. Okay. Ready for text. Whenever you are. Okay, Ray, I am texting you.
Wow, that's a long text.
Yeah, that is a long text, man. That's a lot. Um, I had to get some context. Hey, I'm texting it to you right now. Yeah. I'm about to read it. Okay, I just want your reaction. I just want your reaction. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's it? Yep. Yep. Is it life-changing? Of course it is.
Is it what someone on the show has desired over the years, but they had really either the means or the connections to do it? Correct. I can agree to that. Oh, man, I can't wait to do this.
I'm so excited.

Chapter 4: What surprising news did Bobby share with the team?
Yeah, maybe backdoor.
It was not easy.
Bobby went through the backdoor through accounting and was able to put money in Eddie's 401k.
You're out of your mind. Something to start retirement.
Bobby's going to start matching our 401k contributions himself.
Bobby is not. Because that would be cool. That would be crazy. Okay, so it's one of you three. I'm going to eliminate one of you. By the way, none of you are right. Oh, my gosh. I'm running out of ideas. Shocker. I mean, Morgan went to African Safari. She went to space. Something she's mentioned twice on this show in 12 years.
You guys are such haters.
So I have to eliminate one of you. So one of you will not be getting the super secret prize gift experience. Okay? All right. And the person who is not getting the super special secret prize gift experience. Bye, Morgan. Bye, Morgan. Of Eddie and Lunchbox and Morgan. See ya. Bye, Morgan. Adios. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. You can hang out with your animals. Yep.
The person not getting it... Is Morgan. Go ahead and say it, Morgan. Come on, come on. Hey, say, Morgan. M-m-m-m-m-m-Morgan. M-m-m-m-m-m-Morgan. You guys are so rude, man. No, no, we're so true. The person not getting it is... Morgan. Morgan.

Chapter 5: What was the process of getting Michael McDonald on the track?
And so Breland's singing the chorus.
And I said, you know, it'd be great if Michael could sing the chorus. And they go, yeah, do you think you could do that for the record? And I'd already mixed, mastered, sequenced and handed in the whole album to the label. And I'm like, for what album? And they go, this one. What are you talking about? And they're like, well, you know, Michael McDonald, you know? And so I went, okay.
So within 10 days, I put a session together with the full band, tracked the song, had never met Michael, met him through a mutual friend, sent him the song.
He loved it. He put his vocal on it. We mixed it. We mastered it. We re-sequenced it, re-serviced it and got it all into the label in time. It was insane. Yeah.
Is it still cool to you if you get something back from a Michael McDonald who's singing on a song that you wrote? Yeah. Okay, I don't know if it ever... It was surreal talking to him. Yeah? Yeah, the first... Because I got his number and I called. He was just the sweetest guy on the planet. It was amazing. Yeah, that's cool. Why Yacht Rock? What is Yacht Rock to you?
It's more of a, well, the album's called Flow State. Yeah.
Very summery looking too.
And I think that kind of sums up what Yacht Rock is. I think it's not even just about music as it is just a flow state that you get to. Will you play covers, these songs in live shows? Yeah. Yeah. We're going to actually do some specific underplay shows where we do the album top to bottom as well. Didn't you and John Mayer do a Crossroads together at one point?

Chapter 6: How does the artist describe the Yacht Rock genre?
Yeah, we did. Back in like 2011 or something. Ages ago.
That was a long time.
Long time, yeah. His guitar playing, how is it different than yours? When you see him, what do you see that's different than you? He's got a, well, he's changed so much since he started with Denko. His palette has expanded huge. He's just a great player. I can't, I think playing is all about just your life experiences and your essence of who you are coming through.
I got a lot of life experiences and a lot of essence. I can't play.
Yeah, you can't.
No, I mean, I can do like C and G. Well, that's your life experience. Okay, that's my essence. My essence is C. That's a good point.
you need to get out more bobby yeah that's a good point uh and so what like who said hey let's do a cover record because again i'm sure you have so much going on in your brain all the time i'm sure you got a hundred songs that you wrote that aren't covers why would you do a cover record it took on a life of its own because i bought this amazing studio in town used to be called the tracking room i've been there it's awesome thank you um and i've recorded there a lot over the years i was there with you yeah you were okay just making sure you're yeah

Chapter 7: What is the significance of performing covers at live shows?
Got it.
And I had just bought the studio, got it up and running and had to go on tour. So I was frustrated, like I couldn't record. And I thought it'd be fun to do something that is kind of just a bit of fun, just a bit of effortless fun, nothing serious.
and i was walking around the house singing all these yacht rock songs and i thought oh maybe we could do one or two of those just for fun just to kind of break in the studio and we put a session band together i called up dan huff he came in and we did i think we did well i won't say the names of the songs but we did two songs and we had such a great time dan's like you got any more
I was like, okay. So we scheduled another session about a month later, and we did two or three more. And I thought, oh, well, maybe we've got an EP happening. That'd be fun. And then it just kept growing and growing. And before I knew it, we had a whole album. It's cool. I enjoy listening to it. If I listen to new music, I've got to be in a different place.
I've got to be listening harder when I listen to new music.
Why? Why?

Chapter 8: What are the results of the testosterone competition?
unfamiliar. It's like I can turn the office on and watch it and relax and watch the office and I would say get in a flow state watching the office. Same thing with songs I already know. Now these are covers but I already know the songs so now there's nothing unfamiliar to me except how you're doing them. So like I enjoy a covers record from an artist that I really like.
I like, the record's awesome. I really wasn't going to listen to it right before you came in but I already listened to the whole thing. Thank you. Pretty good. What was surprising to me was when we were texting you were on a tour bus and Yeah. Not a plane. No. That's surprising to me. Why? You're very rich. I got a tour bus.
I hear you.
I like being on the bus. Sometimes it's really nice. I mean, we're playing in Indiana. The heck. It's perfect for the two of us. Or it's a short plane ride. Yeah, but anyway. Yeah. Okay. I was just surprised. I was like, what's up? You're like, I'm on the bus. I'm like, I literally said, you're on the bus? How many buses do you guys have? Do you roll out? Well, we're not on a big tour right now.
That was last year. And I think the next big tour we do will be next year. So lean and mean right now. Is your hair darker? What? Yeah, does it look darker? I don't know. Maybe, do you just wash your hair? Yeah. Okay, it's dark.
Okay, that's what it is.
Yeah, or less highlights? Yeah, I don't know. I don't want to like not respect. Bobby doesn't have color. No, but his hair looks good. It's dark. I like, it looks a little darker today. Maybe it's like a little wet. Yeah. You just watch it? Yeah. It's definitely a radio question, isn't it? Yeah. No, we got wrong. Everybody's watching us too. Look at the cameras up here. Got it, yeah.
I feel like I can say no to some stuff about you. Thank you. Other people can't.
He's like, are you fresh out of the shower?
