Summary
In his memoir Bare Bones: I’m Not Lonely If You’re Reading This Book, country music radio personality Bobby Bones, whose birth name is Bobby Estell, looks back on his life so far. Bobby, who was 36 at the time of its 2016 publication, reflects on his successful and storied career, which has spanned three radio stations. He also explains how his difficult childhood has had an ambivalent legacy in his adult life: it has fueled his near-superhuman work ethic and severely stunted his personal relationships.
Bobby was raised by his mother and grandmother in Mountain Pine, a tiny, impoverished town in rural Arkansas. Pam Hurt, his mother, was just 16 when he was born. She was always unreliable because of two related problems; she was an alcoholic and she had trouble keeping a job. Her family’s food insecurity led her to use food stamps and steal food from the grocery store. Bobby, who never had his own bedroom until college, spent most nights sleeping on the living room couch.
As a kid, Bobby developed a survival tactic for dealing with his mother’s volatility by rarely engaging her in conversation. Instead, he leaned on his grandmother, the most stable and loving person in his life, whom he describes as my dad and mom both.
She was also a friend, taking Bobby to yard sales and card games. Finally, with her Social Security checks, she was a source of financial support for Bobby
