Morning studio. Morning. Here's a story I just saw. It's sad, but more than sad. It ends happy. So bear with me. This is from The Insider. A woman who had been on a ventilator for over a month, woke up from a coma just hours before her family planned to end her life support. Her name is Bettina Lerman. She was unvaccinated against coronavirus. She was hooked up to a

ventilator. It was in Portland, Maine. Her son Andrew said she had underlying health conditions like diabetes. On October 29th, so it's been a couple weeks, family members were set to end her life support. This is what he said. They told us, your mom is never going to wake up. It was the end of the line. They told him that she had irreversible damage from COVID-19. But just hours before pulling the plug, she suddenly woke up. He got a call from a doctor that was like, hey, what are you doing? He was like, well, we're picking out a headstone for mom. And this story goes over to WMTV, quote, he goes, well, I need you to come to the hospital right away. I'm like, what? Is something wrong? He goes, well, your mom just woke up. I literally dropped the phone. I was like, what? I mean, because we're

supposed to be terminating life support today. Okay, I have a couple things to say. First of all, like I told you, this. ends happy because she's alive, right? We're all on the same page, right? Yeah. Amy, what do I tell you? If you suckers ever pull me off live support. I know. Two things are going to happen because either I'm going to live or I'm going to die. If I live after you pull me, I'm going to wake up and I'll be so mad we're any friends anymore. You try to kill me. If I die, I'm going to haunt you because I knew you pulled me from life support. So if I'm plugged up, plug it in plug it in leave it plugged in yeah no i mean we've we've had that memo for years now

and i think yeah you're like everybody there's checks and balances like you're we take a vote everyone's voting to keep you alive because everyone's too scared there is no vote anymore it's only katelyn at this point she has she's the only one who gets to decide but i'm just letting everybody know because sometimes you know cases are decided by popular opinion okay i do not want to be unplugged go ahead what do you want us to do if kately decides like, if doctors say, Caitlin, there's no way Bobby's waking up. Like, he wouldn't want to live this way. Like, you can't.

The doctor don't know crap. Okay, but I'm saying, what if? Follow me here. And Caitlin's like, okay, well, I know this is a horrible decision. I mean, what do you want us to do? Abduct her, lock her in a room until I come back to life. Okay. There we have it.

I've said it. It's on public record, okay? What a wild story, though, how the day that she was being taken off life support, She boom, just pops up into the wake. Okay, let's open up the mailbag. You send an email and we read it on the air. It's something we call Bobby's mailbag, yeah. Good morning, Bobby.

I need your advice concerning a coworker. His feet and shoes stink. I sit directly behind him and can smell his feet or shoes. When he wears new shoes, the smell is not there. How do I let him know that his shoes smell? Signed, holding my breath. Well, this goes to all the relationship you have with this person, but what I would do is I would leave a note. Or I'd create a troll email account and go, hey, your shoe stink.

A troll email account? Sorry. A... Anonymous. A burner. Oh, burner. I would create a burner account. Whoa, that sounds cool.

It would be like, hey, I work with you. This is embarrassing. I like you, but I don't know how to tell you. Your shoe stink. And that's it. I would create like, uh, shoe smeller at 68.com, Gmail, whatever. You know, whatever. Shoes smeller, 68.

At gmail.com, I would send it to his email address and say, hey, listen, I work in the same building as you. I like you. I don't have the guts to tell you this in person, but your shoes stink. So I'm just letting you know as a friend who doesn't have the courage and is a coward, that those shoes are bad. So please stop wearing them. See, if I was the recipient of that, then I'm left thinking, who is this person that sent

it to me? It could be anyone around me at any given time. And now I'm just super self-conscious when I would rather just hear from one person. And I would have, so I'd rather know who it's from. But I'm telling you what I would do. I'm the coward of the county. And aren't you thankful that someone told you that your feet smell? Sometimes when you smell, you don't notice because you're just used to that smell.

Same. I'm often told my armpits smell now. Like Caitlin, she says, if I were to have a clone named after my favorite, my sense, it would be spray tan, B.O. And Bulldog. That's what my new clone would smell like. Funny. You let him know, but if you don't have the courage and I wouldn't, to just go up to him in his face, because most people don't, I would create a burner email account, send it and be nice.

Say, I really like you. I'm just embarrassed that I don't have the guts to tell you, but your shoe stink. So please stop wearing them. Thank you. And then maybe the next day you put a $5 Starbucks gift card on this.

Oh, mm-hmm. And then you create a secret relationship between him and the mystery. See, it could turn it into so many things. Yeah, it could. That's what I say to do. Yeah. All right, thank you.

That's the mailbag. Morgan, if they want to email us, what do they do? Mailbag at bobbybones.com. We've got your email and we've read it on the air. Now it's about to close Bobby's mailbag. Yeah.

Yesterday I did my top five Kenny Chesney songs. People like that. So now I'm doing my top five Blake Shelton songs. But first, a couple facts about Blake, you probably didn't know. Did you know he coached on a show that wasn't the voice before the voice? No idea. Blake was in clash of choirs, kind of like the voice. This is way before.

During his appearance, the singing team that went up against the groups was led by Patty LaBelle and Michael Bolton. In the end, Blake's team placed third. Oh. Lost to Patty LaBelle and Michael Bolton. Wow. I did not know that. Yeah, what a loser. And then after that, he was a judge on Nashville Star in 2007.

Then he went on to become wildly famous. Listen, the voice helped his country music career. Blake Shelton was not an A-List country star until the voice helped him be an A-List star, which helped him be an A-Less country star. He already had some big songs, and he was a big artist, but he wasn't like A-plus country artist. He wasn't like you could see him marrying Gwyneth Paltrow. Or no. Gwen Stefani.

Close. Or either. My top five Blake songs. Number five, Honeybee. Number four, and I always would hear this on the radio and be like, I don't know if I feel comfortable with this song, but I realize I do, after looking at all of his library, some beach.

Some beach. Because some beach. I think everyone gets it right. Everybody gets it, right? I think so. At number three, God's Country. God's Country. His biggest song.

Recent-ish, but his biggest song ever. At number two, it's a cover, but All Red. I mean, I know that originally from George Jones. Oh, it's a George Jones cover? Okay. But Blake did it really good, and then it was a massive song for him again. And number one, what is it? Blake Shelton. My number one, Blake Shelton is Austin?

Yeah, it's Austin. If it's anybody else. Wait for the tone You know what this is Austin I still love him He still plays that It shows it's his first ever number one I was with them

Probably four or five months ago And he was playing it I was like He had the words on a teleprompter In front of him Because all the words were And I was like do you need the teleprompter He was like man I could do this

Without even knowing I'm singing it Like I could I've sang this song so many times But that is my favorite Blake Shelton song The latest from Nashville and Hollywood Morgan number two's 30 seconds skinny Sam Hunt shared what he likes to eat on Thanksgiving Day.

When I pile my plate up, it's mostly turkey, and then I'll put a little dressing on the side, and then I'll use to go ahead and grab my dessert on the first run and have it, have it ready before it all disappears. Carrie Underwood spends a lot of her Thanksgiving holidays working, and she shared how her family celebrates around it. We don't have too many set in stone Thanksgiving traditions. I find myself a lot of times working on or around Thanksgiving or not. unable to get home or whatever. We try to be together, but sometimes that just doesn't work out. Dirk's Bentley shared his Thanksgiving Day must-haves.

We got to have a big turkey. Thanksgiving is not possible without a turkey. So we cook it traditionally. When we're in a couple of Thanksgiving's ago, we were here in Nashville, and we did the whole fried a turkey up. That's just great. I mean, it just tastes so good. All the juices get locked in there, and I love that too.

You really can't, to me, cook a turkey wrong. I'm going to eat it. I'm Morgan number two. That's your school. It's time for the good news. With producer Eddie. Tell me something good. Topeka High School in Kansas had a contest going on called the Character Challenge.

And this is where students did videos of them performing kindness in the community. And the winner Jada Fulton, she won the grand prize of $500. And she didn't keep the money. What she did was she gave it away to a charity she loved called The One Heart Project. And this is a charity that gives second chances to kids that are in and out of juvenile centers. So she did not keep the money. She gave it away. I love that.

I would have expected nothing less from Al Jada. Of course. Also, we should shout out to school for just having that contest. Yeah. Like, I think, you know, great, that's awesome. She won and she donated the money. That's probably the headline. But that a school would have a kindness contest, that's a pretty cool thing to do.

And then all the students that took part of the contest is doing cool stuff all over the community. What happened in there? Win a 500 bucks. Right, right. Money don't grow on trees. You know what I'm saying? Shout out to Topeka High School in Kansas. That's awesome.

Like, I want to say, it's been about four or five years now that we were really dating. But she will not leave me alone. I mean, she left me alone there for a little while and right back up at it. Here she is again. I was just wondering, what do you think I should do? You could block her number. That's usually what I do. Listeners have my number all the time now. I just block them. I don't even change my number. I just block them. You could block her. There's a really good episode of, A black mirror. It shows you how to eliminate someone.

Do you ever see that one? Or you can block them completely out? Or you can just say, hey, I don't want to be, I don't want you to be in my life anymore. You could do the adult thing. You could also do that, right? That's what he's asking, right? She won't leave him alone.

You could also call the cops. I mean, there are a lot of things you can do here depending on what she's doing. Amy, your thoughts? Yeah, that's what I was going to recommend is just having like a real heart-to-heart-heart conversation of like where you are and set that boundary. And then, yeah, if she then cannot follow it after her.

a major sit down, then you, yeah, take more steps towards eliminating her. Call and leave us a voicemail anytime you want. 877, Bobby. That's our voicemail number. Amy, I forgot to ask you about the weekend because you were taking your daughter to see Garth Brooks. Yes, and it was amazing. And as you know, we kind of had a couple weeks to prepare.

So I was getting her ready with all the Garth stuff and all the Garth music. and I don't really think I prepared her properly because we were all kind of surprised. It was Garth, and he was there, but it was just Garth, the guitar, and lots of stories and jokes, lots of jokes. And so she didn't really get any of his jokes, but he would play a lot of artists

that inspired him as well. Like, I thought it was personally amazing, but she doesn't really know who Bob Seaghert is and James Taylor. Who's the first person? Well, I don't see, I don't even know how to say it. Now say it. Say it again.

Say it again. Say it again. Bob Seeger. Amy goes, she didn't know Bob Seagert was. How do you say it? Bob Seeger. Okay, Bob Seeger. And Bob Seeger sings like,

Working on the night moves. Yeah, well, and then James Taylor, like, I see fire and I see rain. It was so good. And then, you know, sometimes Garth talks in, talks about himself in first person. Third person. Third person.

Yeah. Yeah. So he says, you know, I, Garth. And he's like, and I'm in a place from George. straight and so stashira was getting really confused and she was like wait she's like is this george straight or is this garth brooks and i was like i don't know this is garth she's like okay he's talking about himself like that so i all and all we stayed the whole time like we walked away we had a great time we had popcorn m and ms like we stood up we cheered no cameras were allowed though so she got busted

i didn't know that and so she was trying to take a video and an usher comes up she's like no cameras and then sure enough i look at the ticket and it says no cameras on the ticket and i'll I was like, my bad. That is basically Garth's Vegas show when I went to it. He had a guitar and he would be like, you know, this is who inspired me and he played like some Motown stuff and then he play a little bit of his music. And then he'd go, here's some Bob Seagert. And then he played, you know.

So maybe it was that kind of show. Did you learn anything about Garth Brooks that you didn't know? Oh, yeah. I walked away with some fun facts that I have brought to share with y'all. So first of all, he wrote much too young to feel this damn old for George Strait. Like basically he came to town as a songwriter, wasn't going to be an artist, like a performer. But he had that song in his back pocket and was like, I want George straight to cut this. And I guess George turned it down, so Garth ended up doing it.

All right. Give me another one. Unanswered prayers is a true story, which we've known for quite some time. But it didn't happen at a hometown football game. It happened at some place that actually wouldn't really sound good in a song. and so he thought it would flow a lot better if it said hometown football game. But the song is totally fact. Just it was not at a football game,

which I always heard the song was true, so assumed it was at a football game. But I think it was like, I don't know, at the state penitenti tree or something. At the truck stop on 3rd Avenue? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's like, it just didn't sound that good. Oh, and when I was researching, like after he shared the fun fact,

it made me want to read about it more. And that's the song he wrote about his first wife, so not Trisha Yearwood, his wife before Trisha. Sandy. Sandy. And so he said later in an interview after him and Sandy got divorced, he's like, well, for a long time, I couldn't say this because I was married. But the woman they ran into at the, you know, football game was he really thought for the first

two years of his marriage that that was literally who he was supposed to spend the rest of his life with and he had missed out on the love of his life. But he could never say that publicly because he was married. Well, that scares me because I wonder if Caitlin thinks that right now. She's like the first two years, she's like, I'm with them. but it really, oh. See, to hear stuff like that's scary. Yeah.

Okay, give me one more fun fact. Okay, so after he wrote The River, he, like, he knew that this song was going to be the thing that, like, people would go crazy for with lighters and sing back to him loud at a stadium. And his co-writer apparently was like, yeah, right, whatever, it's not going to happen. This is not one of those songs. So years later, when he was playing in Central Park to a million people, he invited that co-writer to open for him. and when they played the river, there was a million people there with lighters,

and that co-writer got, like, Garth was like, told you, this is how it's going to happen. And yeah, so the river was a hit, like he thought. Pretty cool. Sounds like a good show. No, no, it was so amazing. Like, I'm so glad Stashear and I will forever have that memory. And, you know, yeah, no cameras were allowed,

but some people from Garth's team were sitting right behind us, and they, I guess they're allowed to have their cameras because they're Garth people. And they took some shots of me and Stasier from behind, like having fun together and they sent them to me. So is a really special memory. Here's a voicemail we got last night. Good morning studio.

My 7-year-old son, Nash, has a morning corny for Amy. How do you get a tissue to ditch? You put a little boogie in it. Love your show. We listen every morning. Bye. Thank you guys. Amy's morning corny comes up in 15 minutes if you want to hear one from her.

All right, here's another voicemail from last night. Hey, Bobby. My son, he's nine years old, and he is a huge fan. you guys in the show. He wants to give to the St. Jude Radiosan that you guys host during December, and I was calling to see when that radiosan might be scheduled. Well, I'm glad you asked. Thursday and Friday, December 9th and 10th will be the St. Jude Radioathon. We have so many friends are going to stop by and perform for us, but the 9th and the 10th, and we hope you guys can become a partner in hope. So thank you for that call.

Here's Amy's pile of stories. Okay, so Bobby, remind us, are you a hugger or not a hugger? That's a no for me, dog. I'm not trying to hug anybody that I don't know really closely and then only on special occasions. But hugs can be so effective. There's like positive things that come from a hug. I agree with that, but if you hug all the time, then hugs are worth nothing. If everybody was just throwing out $100 bills all the time because they were easy to get, it wouldn't be worth $100 bucks.

But you do not say that to Caitlin. But those hugs are imported to me. I don't see someone from work at a restaurant and go, I haven't seen you in three hours. Let me hug you. I'm not a big hugger just for the sake of hugging. I believe in hugging when it matters and I'll give a great hug. Yeah. Okay. Well, in case you're wondering, next time you give Caitlin a hug, because I know you're good at that, to make it a positive, to make a positive impact on her, you need it to last for 10 seconds. Oh, that seems like an extra long hug. If I'm hugging for 10 seconds, I'm expecting a little post hug. You know what I'm saying?

Oh. Oh. Okay. Well, just for every. Everybody else take note if you want the hug to have a positive impact. Try to time it out and make it a long good one. And don't do this with strangers. Okay. Has anybody in the room ever lied about COVID to get out of plans? No. No, God no.

No chance. Eddie admits now that he did for an entire month to miss work like six months ago. No way. He's like, actually I have. 40 days, I think, is how long Eddie was not on the show a lot or like in the studio with us. But apparently that's a thing. Like there's a percentage of people that are like, yeah, I've straight up have not wanted to go do something. So I've said, I've got COVID.

I can't call it. Or back in the day before people were getting vaccinated, you could say I've been exposed to COVID. And then that because I have a friend who is very high at a school and he said teachers were just doing that like crazy. Like, oh, I've been exposed. I don't need to come in for a few days. And you can't say, no, you weren't. You must let them have that time off. But it's an easy out, you know.

Oh, yeah. Interesting. None of us could get away with that because now everyone has the microphone in the way to work from home. So that wouldn't fly. Well, heads up. There is a new movie out on demand starring Trace Adkins. Did you know he was an actor? Yes, I did, Amy. This is how he talked to this movies. Yes, I did. Well, the movie's called 13 minutes. And I got a clip of it. Tornado warnings are just outside our viewing area. But we're under a particularly dangerous situation, tornado watch. Follow me these way. Everybody hurry. Are you sure this is the safest place to be? Okay, so apparently it's about one superstorm, four paths to survival, along with Trace Adkins.

You got Thorough Birch, Peter Focanelli, Ann Hache, Amy Smart, and Paws Vega, and they're battling the largest tornado on record to strike their town in 13 minutes. And you can check it out on demand with Apple TV, Prime Video, and many other platforms. Okay, there you go. They're battling a tornado. Yes. I'm betting on the tornado. I'm just going to say. I'm betting on the tornado.

Okay, is that it? I'm Amy. That's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With lunchbox. Stay at home if something good. Two buddies decided to go hiking inside a cave, their experience. They do it all the time.

They go in and they get really deep in there like 900 feet. One of the guys slips and falls and hurts himself. Can't get out. So his buddy has to trek out of the cave, find help, and it takes 53 hours for rescuers to get him out of the cave. 53 hours. 250 people were involved in the rescue. I'm assuming, too, he doesn't have cell phone service in there,

so he's probably just wondering. He's just sitting there. For over two days, is anyone coming back? Did my friend even get out? Did he get eaten by bear? Like, all these thoughts are probably going through your head. 900 feet. Two days, I mean, just sitting there, wondering, having no communication?

You imagine how dark and cold it is? Oh, I know. At night, I get so scared. And who saved him? There was 250 different people. They had to work in shifts. They had to have him on a stretcher and carry him out of the cave. Wow.

That's crazy. Good story. That's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. If you're somebody who eats a lot of food, especially someone who's known to eat a lot of food, this is like the greatest compliment you can get because this dude was banned from an all-you-can-eat barbecue place because he ate too much. I mean, think about the amount of food you got to eat. to be banned from an all-you-can-eat place.

This guy is a food live streamer. He said he's been blacklisted from a grill buffet restaurant for eating too much. He's known only as Mr. King. He was banned from the place after a series of binges. He ate 3.3 pounds of pork trotters

during his first visit. I don't even know what a trotter is. He ate 8 pounds of prawns on another visit. He was like, I can eat a lot. Is that a fault? I didn't waste any of the food. the restaurant owner told the same reporter that covered the story

that he was putting him out of pocket. He said, every time he comes here, I lose a ton of money. Even when he drinks soy milk, he can drink 20 or 30 bottles. That's why, what's this guy's digestive system like? I know.

That's crazy. So shout out to Mr. King because he knows what he's good at. I mean, think about if you work at that restaurant you see Mr. King walking in. If you just work there and it's like not your career, you're probably like,

shout out Mr. King. But yeah, if you're the guy that's paying for all this food, but you got to think at all you can eat place. They throw away so much food at the end of the night, right? Yeah, I mean, they have to factor in. You have to also, it probably balances out somehow because there's some people that are coming in paying for all you can eat and they eat one thing.

Well, Mr. King is not allowed there anymore. Justice for Mr. King, if you ask me, but let's go over and get the morning corny with Amy. The morning corny. What did the mother turkey say to her disobedient children? What did the mother turkey say? mother turkey say to the disobedient children.

If your father could see you now, he'd turn over in his gravy. Fake laugh and all. I like that one. That's not a fake laugh. No, that's fake laugh. Come on. Come on. And the longest joke ever.

It's like she's reading the Constitution and she ends up with a, okay, thank you, Amy. We'll put that up on the Instagram. I'll have to be two slides, though. It's so long.

Amy, what happened? Well, I just don't know if this is allowed or not, but we were driving near a school zone area and there was a crossing guard, and the crossing guard was smoking a cigarette. And I was like, what? Like, this just seems weird, but it's not even like he was trying to hide it at all. But he definitely inhaled, took a last smoke, came out of his mouth, and then he flicked it on the ground and went and got his little stop sign and was good to go. But I'm like, kids are all around, people are all around. Like, surely this is not allowed, right?

Is the crossing guard hired by the school? I have no idea. Good question. I mean, I don't, it, what the school wasn't, the problem is, it's like in an area where there is a school, so they have different crossing guards set up. So I don't know if like the neighborhood or the town or the city, who's in charge of that? Good question. But you're saying the crossing guard with kids should not be smoking a cigarette right then when the kids are around. Yeah. I just thought we're to a point in society where you wouldn't smoke around kids. But maybe it is allowed. I have no idea. I just was. shocked to see such a thing. But wait a minute. The crossing guard. He was standing outside. Outside. Like he's not in the school, right? No, he's outside. Okay. So he's smoking a cigarette outside. You walk to the grocery store.

There's people smoking cigarettes outside the grocery store. Kids go to the grocery store. He's outside. Can we calm down? He's outside smoking a cigarette. I don't think anybody has been anything but calm. I'm talking about this. But Amy's acting like it's the worst thing she's ever seen. I just don't think he should be smoking. I'm like, he's outside. I just think I am not, I guess I'm not shocked that someone smokes lunchbox, I think, but when you put on the vest, you put down the cigarette. I mean, have you ever seen a cop? Have you ever seen a cop smoke? Yeah, cop smoke? I mean, it's crazy. I don't think I've ever seen a cop in uniform smoking a cigarette.

Have you guys ever been outside? Yes. Ever? Now it's just comical lunchbox. Have you ever seen a waiter? A waiter goes outside a restaurant and smokes and then goes back in and serves you your food. A waiter very different. Hold on, hold on. The only person not calm here is lunchbox for some of the way. I think this is why it seemed weird to Amy because a crossing guard at a school feels like someone that is connected to the school and there are kids all around. Yeah. And it's weird to see someone smoke with that affiliation of children at school next to them.

Yes. It reminds me at the time too where I thought a crossing guard was dealing drugs and I was totally wrong about that. But trust me, there's no mistaking that this crossing guard was smoking. Just so our listeners know, at one point, Amy was so confident that her crossing guard was dealing people drugs because the crossing guard would walk over and would like hand somebody something. Yes, we sent lunchbox out. Yes, we sent lunchbox out. And he drives up to the crossing guard.

Like, hey, you got it? And the crossing guard said, yeah. And go chich and hands it to him. It was a peppermint. It was a peppermint. Yes. How was I supposed to know she was the peppermint, you know, can't pass her out her? Like I thought, I literally thought there was multiple times where I was behind cars where they would slow down.

I mean, you're already going 15, you're already going slow. But they would slow all the way down, stop, roll down their window. There would be a hand exchange. What else was I supposed to think? And I was like, what an excellent cover? Because no one's ever going to think that the crossing guard is handing out drugs to people that are slowly driving through. Like, it all just made sense. And then, yeah, I mean, she was just really nice.

And people knew her as the peppermint queen. Question is, should a crossing guard at a school be able to smoke a cigarette? Yes or no, around the room, Amy? No. Eddie? I don't want my crossing guard walking my children across street smoking a cigarette. No. I'm going to go with no, too.

I don't think he should go to jail. But I'm going to go with no as well. If you're working with kids, you shouldn't be smoking while you're working with kids. Lunchbox, go ahead. Yes, people smoke, man. There's parents that smoke. I mean, guys, they have kids. My parents smoke.

I mean, are we going to take their kids away? Like, guys. People have an addiction. They smoke cigarettes. Okay. Like, they're outside. They're not harming anybody. Would you want your teacher smoking cigarettes in class with your kids?

Not in class, but he's outside. If they're on the playground and the teacher wants to smoke, go for it. Shut up. Stop it. Shut up. I don't understand. They're outside. Okay.

Let me get this clear. If you're at recess and your kids are playing and your teacher lights one up, you're like, I get it. It's cool. You're addicted. It's fine. They waited until they got outside. side. It's their time. You know, they get a break. Have a cigarette. That's fine. In front of the kids. Listen, my kids see people smoke all the time. Do you guys not go out in

public and your kids don't see people smoke? Okay. No, they do and they're like, ew, what is that? Okay, so you say it's a cigarette. Ew, gross. So you tell them when you see the crossing guard. Ew, gross, cigarette. Okay, but you're still exposed to the smoke. Oh my goodness. Like you breathe in. Do you walk by cars? Do you walk by cars because there's exhaust? Morgan, you can be our fifth vote here. How do you feel about this? No, I'm with y'all, not lunchbox. I mean, this doesn't even seem like a question to me. Four to one lunchbox.

I'm sorry, you lose this one, buddy. Well, this is some Jerry Springer type stuff, which I've only realized now that some of our audience is too young to actually know what Jerry Springer is. Amy, could you explain to our younger end who Jerry Springer was and what kind of show we used to have? Oh, I mean, it was a show that was very, I don't, crazy, like shock value.

Like, I mean, there was always drama and fighting and yelling and cheating and scandals. And Jerry loved it, egged it on. And the crowd would even egg Jerry on and be like, Jerry, Jerry, Jerry. So this could have been on Jerry Springer back in the day. Okay. Her name is Haley. She's 28 years old. She lives in Arizona.

She helped her best friend give birth. She was like, I'll be in the room with you. I'll help you. As you're having the baby, we'll go through contractions. but when the baby was born, there was a birthmark on the baby that was exactly like her husbands. Are you following me here?

Well, yes, but are birthmarks hereditary? Some are, yes. Okay. Haley Custer 28 helped her best friend give birth without realizing the baby's father was her husband of six years. She says she had no idea her close friend who she doesn't want to name

and her husband who she does want to name, Travis, were having an affair behind her back. She claims she helped deliver that husband baby and only became suspicious of infidelity when she spotted a rare birth defect on the child's neck the same birth defect that her husband had that is genetic. Okay. Jerry, Jerry. If you're that friend though, do you want her in the room helping deliver a baby that's her husband's? Like, aren't you trying to keep her away from that? Well, yeah, I don't know. Maybe it didn't cross her mind that there would be a rare birth defect that's

hereditary. Also, what a piece of? a crap her husband is if this is true right i mean is she in a relationship with anybody else though like also is there the the baby daddy that everybody else thinks is the dad like is he is he learning he's not after confronting the pair about her suspicious her suspicions about her partner she claims that her husband admits he had cheated on her with up to 30 women during their marriage one of them was her best friend see that ain't a good friend that ain't a good husband either one that's not even her best friend she just thought it was her best friend that's not her best friend yeah this is definitely an episode of jerry

and see what Jerry would have done, and he would have tracked down as many of the 30 women as he possibly could, loan them in, pick them up with a limo, put them up in a hotel and champagne and had them come on the show and just, you know, air it all out for public consumption. Also for our new listeners, Lunchbox was on Jerry Springer back in the day when he was 17 years old, right, lunchbox? That's right. They do fly you to Chicago. They put you up in a nice hotel. They give you a per diem or whatever, like little gift certificates to the restaurant and the hotel,

a night out in Chicago, and it is awesome. And you made up a story to get on the show. It wasn't even true. Correct. We had always said, if we were on Jerry Springer, we'd say this. So me and Kamika said we were dating for two and a half years. Jennifer and Derek were dating for two years, and Derek and Kamika had been cheating on us for a year and a half, and they wanted to take us on the show to tell us. And he went on the show. He's a kid. They brought a kid on that show, like a straight high school kid. I was straight up in high school, senior year of high school, and I took a day, two days off school,

to Chicago. Parents had to sign the parent release forms, everything. It was an incredible time. Isn't it weird that they would let a kid go on that show? That they would allow a kid to have his parents signed for him to go on Jerry Springer. It is wild. And let me tell you, the bodyguard's steep. He's the one that walked me to the elevator and he puts his hand on my shoulder. He's like, hey, man, it's going to be okay.

It'll be okay, man. Because they all thought that Lungebox and Kamika were, this whole thing was true and real, but y'all made up the entire thing. Entire thing. Yeah. Camika and Jennifer were working at a club. and Jerry Springer called and they were like, hey, do you have any stories about cheating?

And they were like, yeah. And that's how we got it. But do you think they really knew you were lying, but they just knew it was a good story? They made me sign a contract saying if they found out I was lying, they could sue me for up to $500,000. What? Yeah.

Then he's like, bleep this whole segment. Hey, scuba, bleep this segment. But you feel like you're in the clear now? Yeah, I mean, I was only 17. I don't think I could sign a legal document. Weird, they'd put a high school kid on a show like that. That's crazy. It's time for the good news

With Bobby I'm going to tell you about Arla Erdle That's her name She has been a substitute teacher And volunteer at this school And she just turned 90 years old And so her family was like

All right, let's go by the school Since you turn 90 Let's drive by and just talk about some memories That you've had Because you've been working there for so many years So they drive up by the school And as she gets there She noticed, wait, there's some kids there

the hours the kids are at school. 450 students lined the sidewalk, chanted her name. They were chanting, let's go, Grandma Arla, clapping their hands. They blew noise makers, they had pom-poms. Again, almost 500 students were there. So cool. She was the go-to substitute teacher for almost 40 years.

Wow. She only recently stopped helping out the school for a couple of years due to health concerns, but they still love her and 500 kids and faculty where they're waiting on her. That's awesome. 500 people will never be waiting on me anywhere. And what did they say, Grandma Arla? Well, I said, let's go, Grandma Arla. Okay.

So it was a little clunky. Yeah, it's tough. But it still worked. So she had been in a capacity, either going to the school or working there. She had been there since she was a teenager. Wow. She's 90 now. There you go.

That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good. If we're not on the air, you guys can leave us a voicemail. If you're a podcast listener, you can leave us a voicemail. It's the same number that you call into the show. 877-77 Bobby. Here's the voicemail from last night. Good morning.

First day back from maternity leave, and I have missed listening to the show every day on my way to work, and I'm so excited to be back listening to you guys live. Thank you for my morning positivity and a great blast on the way to work. Thank you very much, and thanks for that message. And let's do one more. Hey, Bobby. I'm watching this.

What's it called? Get her down. No. This game show that y'all are... It's the game. It is horrible. It's just like the worst show ever. I mean, it's so...

You know what? I can't believe this. You think this is your favorite show. Have a great day. Love your show. Bye. Love you say. I'm assuming you're talking about Squid Game.

If I were to guess. Hey, hey, don't hate on Squid Game. You got to get through the first episode and a half, maybe two episodes, and then you'll love it. For me, I had to go beyond... my annoyance with having to read words on the screen. Once I got past that, I was good. Actually, I loved it.

It ended up being one of my favorite shows ever. But thank you for that voicemail. I appreciate that. Let's go over and do the news. Bobby's Big. Stories. Approximately 80 thieves wearing ski masks stormed the Nordstrom store

in Walnut Creek, California around 9 p.m. Saturday night. 80 people ran in together in a large group and completely rated the store. It was boom, shoplifting, boom, out. Two employees were attacked by looters who punched and kicked them. Another one was pepper sprayed.

All three of them were treated for injuries on the scene. At least three suspects were arrested in connection with the raid. But that's three out of 80. 77 of them got away. It is, I can't believe they'd have a big enough circle of friends. I couldn't find 10 friends to do this, much less. 79. But just imagine you're working in that story.

You're making an honest living. It's almost time to close. And 80 people come in at once and steal everything. That is wild. Amy, your thoughts? I mean, my thoughts are this sounds like a movie. Like, it can't even be real. And also, wow, Nordstrom, I'd feel like that's, I'm safer there than I don't know.

Somewhere else, like I feel like, wow, that's just crazy to me. Now I'm going to be on guard when I'm at the mall this holiday season. Well, you go to Nordstrom because of the high-end stuff. That's where all the expensive stuff is. Yeah, for sure. I mean, I see why they wanted to, like, get in there and rob it and do their thing. But I don't know. I just, that's really scary.

The CDC has a warning for those prepping the turkey this year. Do not wash the turkey. It's the same warning federal food safety experts have been using every year since 2005, and we have touched on this with chicken. But washing raw meats raises the risk of cross-contamination. And there can be food poisoning like salmonella. and something called Campy Lobacter, which I don't know what that is, but it doesn't sound good. You never want to be the guy that is Campy Lobacter.

But we talked about this Amy because if you wash a turkey, that water can get on stuff, right? That's basically what it is? Yeah, I mean, same thing with the chicken. Like, you're just splashing around the chicken juice. It's the juice that you want to worry about that you can't cook off or cook away and then maybe you get it on something else and then you eat it and then you get sick. Yeah, I read this on Fox Austin. And they say that 78% of people wash their turkey.

And I'm not going to hate you if you do because I think, listen, I've never made a turkey. But I think I'd probably wash it. I think I'd probably stick it and run water over it, you know? Yeah, I mean, I see why you would think it's a logical thing to do, but it's not. And finally, according to golf club research, the popularity of golf has slowed down. Golf is not as popular anymore for guys. Some say it could be tied to Tiger Woods in his decline or maybe golf course prices or the pandemic. La, la, la.

But golf is not as cool anymore. That's from the Denver Post. I stopped playing golf, but not because I didn't love it as much, because I had a wrist injury that was killing me. And now I'm fixed up, but now it's winter and I can't do crap. I just sit here and think about golf all the time. So I like golf. I don't get to play it that much, but I like golf.

All right, thank you guys. That's the news. That was where Bobby's Big. Stories. Maybe this is what I need to do. I have crazy digestive issues. I had to get a colonoscopy and endoscopy. I'm reading all these stories about how I can try to fix, you know,

my stomach and all these issues that I have. But here you go. Let me run this by you, Amy. There is a chef that claims her health issues have vanished after switching to a diet of nothing but raw beef and eggs. How does that sound? That sounds disgusting. I want nothing to do with it.

25-year-old Nicolette Kiss suffered from digestive issues. Ding, ding, ding. That's me. But she said, now that she eats just raw beef and eggs, she has never felt better. Doctors don't recommend the diet, but she continues to eat it. that she says she only spends 80 bucks a week on food herself. So can you eat raw beef? I didn't know raw beef was able to.

Is that tar tar? Yeah, beef, tar tar. I can just go to the grocery store, Amy. And just follow it here. This may be the dumbest thing ever, but I don't cook. I'm a bad cook. I can get a steak that's raw and I can just eat it. Yeah.

I mean, that's what they say. I mean, I don't know. Who's they? I don't want to put bad info out there, but you're telling me if I go and get a pork chop. I don't know exactly how it's repaired, but I know that I've seen my... That's not beef. Yeah, yeah, no, stay where for the pork.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, let me take that back. Let me pull that back here. That's pork. Okay, here we go. Yeah. Beef, in most cases, is safe to eat raw as long as you sear the surface of the meat. Oh. This is because on whole cuts of beef, there's bacterial containment such as E. coli.

So it's not even about cooking it. It's just about killing the stuff that has gathered on the meat since it has been cooked. So if you're just about cooking it. So, So if you were to just kill a cow, because there's no E. coli, you could just eat the cow straight down. That's crazy to me. But what if that fix my IBS?

Wait, how did you go for-what if I need to go raw cow to fix my stomach issues? Okay. Do it. I'm going full on Yellowstone. What? Go ahead. Yeah, no, I just didn't know how you'd made that leap from like just killing the cow and eating it right away.

But, yeah, I think I've taken a bite of something my dad made that was like that. Like, he used to eat that all the time. And yeah, now I'm picturing him and he would. He'd kind of like quickly on each side and then boom, slice into it and make, you know, make, he thought it was like the most amazing thing in the world. But my niece married a meat scientist. There's a thing? Yes.

He graduated from Texas to A&M. And he majored in meat sciences. And that's what he is. Now he's a meat scientist. And he said that whenever you're out to eat or even at home, like any kind of ground beef, like if you're having a burger and it's. ground up, you need to ask for it well done. And I know it's popular at restaurants to get like a rare, a rare, a rare, and he's like, that's the most dangerous thing you could do because,

like you just mentioned, all the bacteria that are on there when they grind it up, the reason why you can have a steak roll is you sear it and everything's contained inside that piece of steak and you're good to go. But when they grind it up, all the bacteria gets mixed together. So just pro tip from a meat scientist when you order a burger out, make sure it is cooked all the way well done. Would anyone be interested to get this meat scientist as a guest on the show? Yeah. I'm completely enthralled here.

Oh, yeah. I can book it. Like, they live in Oklahoma, so I can make it happen. Cool, cool story. Well, I was thinking Texas because they moved, but I know that they've stopped in Nashville before when he's giving lectures at local colleges. People go to lectures for meat scientists? Yes.

This is a whole new, a whole new world. Yeah. Well, I do order steaks medium or medium well. And I get looked at by my waiter like I'm ruining the meat. Well, I mean, my niece's husband would tell you, well done all the way every day, out to eat. Well, I don't have to worry about that right the second because I mean a lot of eros con pollo. So I don't worry about that. But, okay, I want to talk to a meat scientist.

soon and I'm interested in eating raw beef. If I bring some in the studio before we leave for Christmas, we'll all have a little piece? No. What? Spin the wheel? Spend the wheel? Yeah, spin the wheel. Eddie, come on.

If you put it in your underarms and your butt, is it okay if someone takes it and puts it in their underarms and their butt? Now, Amy, you brought this to the show. Why? Yeah, because I just felt like it could be a dumb debate of the day

because I was sitting at a basketball game. There was a husband and wife there talking about this exact thing, and the wife was irritated because the husband used her bar soap. And the husband kept saying, it's soap, though. The soap is clean. soap cleans itself because you put it on your body so no germs live on the soap. And she completely disagreed.

I side with the wife, by the way, but I just thought where, I wondered where the rest of the show would stand on sharing bars of soap. Okay, so you don't share a bar of soap with your husband. No. Like if there's a bar of soap situation happening and it's the only option that you have,

then I run it under lots of water and clean everything off and get like a few layers off. bar of soap and then I will use it. Okay. Lunchbox. Soap is soap is soap. The whole point of it is it cleans everything. So it doesn't matter if your wife use it, if your neighbor used it, if Patty down the street use it. It's a bar of soap.

You can use it over and over again. It doesn't matter. I use the soap. My wife uses a soap. Hey, grandpa, you want to come use the soap? Come home. I got no problem with it. In our shower, I use a bar of soap.

but Caitlin uses different kind of soaps like squeezy bottle soaps. Body wash. So, yeah, it's not an issue with us because we don't use the same soap. But I don't think I would have a problem with it because like Lunchbox said, it's soap. And I just, for some reason, expect soap to always be clean. Now, toothbrushes, which Caitlin does not have a problem with if there's not a toothbrush around using mine, which grosses me out. That is so gross. Yeah, that's tough to, that's tough for me.

I could never use our toothbrush. I would just take my fingernails and try to scrape my teeth before I would use her toothbrush. Yeah. So for me, I would use the same soap, but I would not use the same toothbrush. That's my limit. Eddie? I don't really like a green with lunchbox, but soap is soap is soap. You know, I'm with him on that.

It's like holy water, man. It cleans itself. It's just, it's fine, yes. Maybe this is a male-female thing where we're just disgusting and they're not. Morgan, what about you? Would you share a bar of soap with your dad? No, I wouldn't. That grosses me out.

I just, like, I would never want to touch it. Because all I would think about was, like, he was rubbing his body. No, I'm rubbing my... Wait, but what about Patty down the street? Yeah, definitely not Patty down the street. I don't want to share it with my dad. But what about your boyfriend? No.

I mean, we use the same soap out of a squeeze, like a squeeze bottle, but I would never do a soap one. So this is, I guess, a man and woman thing. Because it was even a man and woman that had the argument, right, Amy? Yes. Mm-hmm. Where we are disgusting and you guys are not. not. Basically.

And I think that's where this ends. But three to two, we aren't sharing soap. All right, that's your dumb debate of the day. Thank you, Amy. Bobby Bone Show. Bonehead. Hurry up the day. There's a guy drives into the auto zone parking lot, rolls down the window and just

start shooting. Ba, bye, bye, bye, firing shots at the building. Drives away. Police catch up with him. And they say, man, what were you doing? He goes, well, I tried to rob it last week and they wouldn't let me. So I was angry. Why wouldn't they let him?

What do you mean? they wouldn't let him. One of the employees pulled out of gun and said, get out of here. Oh. Can't rob this place. And so he came back with a gun of his own and shot up the place. Okay. Makes me wonder how many other businesses let him rob the place. It makes me wonder why they didn't call the cops on him.

He didn't get arrested after trying to rob the place. I mean, if you pull a gun out of the store, you'd think they'd think they'd think they'd think they didn't call the cops because the employee wasn't supposed to pull a gun. Ooh, yeah. They didn't want to get in trouble himself. This whole story, yeah. Okay. I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead story the day. A newlywed couple owes $268,000 because they took the keys to one of their friends

Lamborghinis, took it for a joyride, and, well, they were at a light, and then none, none, not even his car, and crashed it, had to go to the hospital with his new bride, car burst into flames, they're okay, but the insurance policy for the car says that it's covered if the driver is 30 or older and has permission from the owner, neither of which were true. So they're down a bunch of money and they're probably not friends anymore. Thoughts, Amy. I mean, I don't think that I would be friends with them anymore. That's a really expensive car to not have permission to drive. And also if you're, this is me thinking here, if I'm in somebody else's car and someone comes up to me and is, I'm not, if I'm in my car, I might actually take them for it and show the loser what's up.

but if I'm in Eddie's car, I'm not going to do that. There's no chance. And so now they owe, again, close to $300,000. Oh my gosh. Which made me just think about our story because when, you know, they're newlyweds. But when Caitlin and I got married, we bought an old Bronco. We had had it like rebuilt a bit to be cool, but it was still old because it had died on us like the week before. But that was our, we're leaving our wedding car.

So we walk out. Everybody's like, oh, you just got married. We get in the Bronco. We drive off. The next day, somebody smashes into it, and it was a hair away from being totaled. It wasn't totaled, but it was a hair away from being totaled. And it's an awesome old Bronco. And it's been in the shop for, I mean, what has it?

It's been three months? Wow. The good news is, I should have it back in the next couple of weeks. How exciting is that? Woo-hoo! Yes. I mean, yeah, but are you nervous to drive it? No, but what stinks is it's now winter, and we took the top off, and it's, it's,

you need a whole crew to come in and put the top back on because it's so old and heavy. And so it's not like we can really drive it until it gets warm again. But we're pretty pumped that it wasn't totaled because it was a big part of our wedding. And also we loved it. And it took us forever to find it.

But this story just made me think about that. So I'm pretty pumped to get that back. But I was just thinking about driving it back from the shop in the middle of winter because somebody's going to drive it home. It's going to be like Ace Ventura. No, no, dumb and dumber. Frozen?

Yeah. We will see you. you guys tomorrow. Have an awesome day. Bye, everybody. All right, if you have ever dealt with a traditional home security company, you know the drill.
