Luke Bryan On His Marriage, Farm and Kangaroos! - Pickler & Ben

but you know, we did it 11 years ago, yes, yes, we are going to go on what a journey, although you must do it together to see and experience all this together for your eyelids. Well, the surprising thing about us is that we dated a little in college. break up and then I would be devastated, we would get back together, we would break up and she would be devastated and then we finally decided that we weren't going to break up anymore and then I graduated college and she has like two more years left and then we broke up.

Again, yeah, we were separated for about five and a half years, yeah, which was kind of a blessing because I went to Nashville and that's how he made this whole thing work. She finished college, she went and actually had a career and when we got married, her career supported her. you know me when I was making about ten ten thousand dollars a year she was the one who brought in the dough for a nine hundred square foot house we had at one time and we had a lot of fun there and we still have some good times we and you know she He has really done some amazing things over the last few years, besides turning our

farm

into a zoo.

Yes, I heard you gave him a very interesting gift. Yes, I bought him two

kangaroos

, why not? Why not other diapers, fun little personalities? We named him Todd Margot after the Christmas holidays. Oh yes, I loved him. Why is the carpet wet? Todd. I don't know Margot, but they have a huge pasture like five acres, huh, and then they have this little heated and refrigerated little house that they can come and go in I came a kangaroo kangaroo I need let's do that let's get a room Kelly but them love Pringles potato chips, how do you find out?

Lou They just got into a little cylinder of them one day, so yeah, like I could come home today and they're smiling like giraffes, well we don't know, don't say it, oh don't give up, we got some too alpacas. Like there's no way in our pack that I can't look at you and you can't laugh, it's just a constant and they say yeah, they're very judgmental, they're judging, but in the end, everything with the barn is, um, we lost a cute Caroline. His wife's brother lost their first daughter and her name was Brett, she was seven months old and she had congenital heart disease, so we called the barn Brett's barn and yeah, that's what it is, yeah, yeah, and so we've state we were able to house some children from Vanderbilt Children's Hospital and we have been able to house some children from st.

Jude, yeah, kids, and I tell you, I mean, I tell you that those are all babies and they're all legal together, so there's our Pyrenees, which is George and Weezie, the Pyrenees dogs and those dogs like I have to book two more shows a year. feed those dogs, oh yeah, there's a hundred and eighty pounds, oh my gosh, a lot and you know they protect, they protect the whole pack and George and Weezie, so of course my wife is pretty sneaky, uh-huh, with the names, but, then. You're going to be hosting some of these kids, that's amazing, uh, it's all like when they go see a kangaroo.

When would they ever be able to see these types of animals up close and in person? You're giving them a chance, oh. Yes, I will tell you that the wonderful thing about having a barn is that you know we will take some of the kids out, but then the parents will watch. You know Caroline has all these swings in these trees, oh yeah, and we'll look and We have the kids and the parents there just swinging and having a little moment and then it was one of my favorite moments a couple of months ago, the weather was perfect , we just had a um, we just had a rain like a big storm, yeah, and you know Caroline had told me that she's like some kids came from Saint Jude, well, we got there and it was three kids and I told them that You three come with me, so I load you into my truck. and we just go to my back field and I zoned out like that, I do it where it just turns the mud, we hit every mud hole and they laughed and had fun and then, you know, I think the interesting thing about it never fails when I'm out. on the road and you know, I start complaining, you know, the air went out on my tour bus, you know, or I have a sinus infection, you know, when you see kids dealing with real problems, you know, it really, really, it gives you chills. and it puts it all in perspective when you look at your kids and they're healthy and it's an amazing dynamic to take those kids out and let them be key, just let them be kids for a day, you know, that's it, it's, it's.

It's something good
