You know who rules? The girls rule the world. Old people. Old people rule. An Oklahoma man still out pumping gas, greeting customers, working on tires. He's got a service station.

He's 93 years old. His name is Nelson Bowles. at five in the morning, working until after dusk, and he's like, I wouldn't have it any other way. He's 93. He said, I made it in my mind. I'm going to live till I die. Boom. That's awesome.

You know who rules? Old people. That's awesome. There you go, Nelson. I see you. The Bobby Bone Show. Big three stories. It's producer Raymond in Denver, Colorado.

Three people were randomly shot inside a Walmart store. Other shoppers had to run for their lives. If you were a witness, contact authorities. They're asking people to do that. In New York City, we're finding out that the terrorists that drove his truck into the crowd of people had been planning the attack for months. And finally, in sports, the Astros beat the Dodgers. They won the World Series.

So congrats to the Houston Astros. It's funny how long we hold on to things. Our producer, Eddie, has that a credit card for 14 years? The same credit card? You got a new one? Since college. I have the same credit card since college, and I finally got a new credit card that I've been waiting

for it's the Southwest credit card 14 years What kind of interest were you paying on the old card? Really nothing. It was just kind of It was really really low because I had seniority for that card And I feel like I didn't really want to stop using it And it's not like I just said I'm going to like tear it up

And I'm never used it again. I'm going to keep it but I'm not using it anymore And me and my wife decided that we're moving on to a new card. Like that dollar bill, like the first dollar bill you make it your business. Exactly. So around the room what do you have that you still use that you're like you should probably give up. Like for me, I have headphones that are almost 20 years old. And surgically, we've kept them together with tape.

I mean, at least once a year, Eddie and I go through and rebuild them. I just will not let them go. I've had them for almost 20 years. And they don't even sound that good, I don't think. It's just the sound I'm comfortable with. So I've had these headphones for almost 20 years. Amy, what have you had for a long time? I have a pair of Gap boxers that are people.

pink with blue polka dots that I've had since probably my freshman year of high school and they have holes in them. And I still have them, which is amazing, and I still wear them. And when I put them on, I'm like, oh, why do I still? I mean, the holes just keep getting bigger and bigger. But I'm like, these are amazing and I don't ever want to get rid of them. Watchbox. I have a Discover card from the year of 1999, my freshman year of college. And I also have a pair of jeans from the Gap outlet, the summer of 2000.

with the seams going down the front wearing them today, still in great shape, still kicking it. Wow, you have a pair of 17-year-old jeans on today? Yep, look at them, any seam right down the front. Yeah, they're definitely 17 years old. Yeah. Got my that outlet. Do they look old, like cool, old? No, no, no, they don't even look old.

You just can tell from the style that that's from, like, a long time ago. Yeah, and you can tell they were at the outlet because sometimes there's a factory, like, or a mistake. Malfuncure or some sort of, like, yeah. Oh, you got the old sewing machine error pants. Yes, yes, yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, good on you for keeping them, though.

Ten bucks. How often do you wear them a week? Two or three times a week. Wow. Look at this guy over here. Nobody even notices. Love it. Bobby Bones.

The Bobby Bones show. All right, positivity time for your Thursday. Everybody got a good story? Yeah. All right, tell me something good. Here we go. There's a kid out surfing. He's 13 years old.

And as he's surfing, he sees an older man. His boat capsized, and he's struggling to swim so he surfs over to and picks up his get on the board. But this drone was flying over and saw the whole thing and had the video of it. Oh wow. And the kid's like, oh, it's no big deal. I just saw a guy. So the kid didn't go like, hey, look at me.

He just saved this dude's life. And so, yeah, this kid's a lifesaver. His name is Sam Ruskin. So shout out to this dude. So anyway, it's all over the news. I always like those people that they don't know. And then now we know. Wise man once said, and if you don't know,

and now you know. There you go. Amy? So this 22-year-old's applying for jobs, sending his resume all over the place with a cover letter in hopes of finding a job. Didn't land a single interview. So he grabbed beast cardboard, a big old marker,

put it around his neck, hit the streets, and said, I'm looking for a job. He wasn't asking for money or anything. He said, I'm looking for a job. Within 30 minutes, he had five different business cards from intrigued possible employers, and he got a job out of construction. Action Company.

There you go. Look at that. A little idea in case you're looking for a way to land a job. Lunchbox. With the big floods that hit Houston a few months ago, there's a bunch of pets that didn't have homes. So they're looking for homes. So an Astros pitcher has a foundation, and he hooked up with all the homeless pets and got them new homes in his hometown in California.

And his organization got them all moved to California and new homes. Oh, wow. So you're trying to give your dog a bath? Yeah. It's really, really annoying because she does not like it at all. She's a big dog. She's a big Rottweiler. Yes.

And I have this stand-up shower now, which is making it look at the, you take the nozzle off and you can. So it's getting way easier to bathe her at home. We don't have to take her somewhere. So I saw this tip online of what you can do if your dog is like going crazy. You put peanut butter like on the floor of the bathtub or the shower wherever you are, wherever you're bathing them. Put a big old thing of peanut butter. Then they get so preoccupied with the peanut butter and like licking it and getting stuck in their mouth and stuff, they don't realize that you're bathing them. And then boom.

That's pretty good. Your dog has a bath and they're all happy because they got peanut butter. I do feel like that's, first of all, genius. Whoever did that. But secondly, I feel like we can do that with lunchbox. To get it clean? Yeah. We walk them into a room.

What would we use, though? We pour like some beer done. A glass of beer. But dogs do get distracted about it. peanut butter because I use it with my dogs whenever I need to give them pills. Just put peanut butter in there. They just lick it all up and eat the pills. You can put peanut butter on the bathtub.

I'd lick it. Would you eat peanut butter on the bathtub? Yeah. I love peanut butter. You hate it, votes. I hate peanut butter. Peanut butter and mayonnaise. Two things I do not do.

I like both of those, but just not on the shower floor. What do you not like? Olives and pickles. I like both of those. Oh. You? Easy. Maneas and tomato.

I like tomatoes. Eddie? Avocados. What? Whoa, whoa, what? I'm telling you. I thought they were avocados. Avocados.

But do you like guacamole? No. Eddie, but you're Mexican. I know, dude. My family makes fun of me, but I hate it. Is it the texture? Yes, it's the texture. It's the texture?

I don't want it. Yeah, I mean. Interesting. That's a nice little, what they call a life hack. Put peanut butter on the bottom of the shower. But clean it up afterwards. I don't like live in it. You live your life.

I don't leave it if you want. Bobby Bones Show. Bonehead. Story of the day. This story comes to us from Chicago, Illinois. A 19-year-old man busted into a business at 6 a.m. Two people work, and he pulls out a gun says,

give me your wallet, give me your phone. They hand over their stuff. He goes to put the gun back in his waistband, and boom! Shot himself right in the... What? Yeah. And so does he try to run away?

Oh, no, no, no. He asked him to call 911. Oh. Oh, I'm Lunchbox. That's your Bonehead story of the day. How humiliating. So tonight is the Radio Hall of Fame, and I'm getting inducted in, and it's a cool thing. And we're all going to be there dressed up.

Apparently, Amy's wearing some dress that's going to shock the world. No, it is not. Who said that? No, there's like, it's just fine. What is it? I don't know. All I was told is what she's going to shock the world. No.

It's not. steal Bobby's Thunder, Amy. It's his night. No, you're still the thunder. So, that being said, it is going to kind of be a classy event. And we're not the best group to go to classy events. No. So I don't know what's going to happen tonight.

So I guess earlier in the week, our show won the CMA Award for Radio Show of the Year. Now, I was at a charity event. Amy and I both were, so we didn't get to go to the dinner, but Lunchbox did. And I was told by another source that this is a dinner and they bring the food out to you and it's fancy

and it's like a lot of artists were there, right? Yeah, artists were there. I saw a little big town, John Party. Low cash. Yeah. So they bring all this food out and lunchbox is representing us.

Yes. Who else went from the show? No, just lunch. Oh, just me. You and your wife. Yeah, just me. My wife didn't get to go, yeah. So you go, and as he's leaving,

he asks for a doggy bag. Oh, boy. No. Oh, boy. No, he didn't. That's what I was told. Look. It was like sort of family style where they had these big plates and you kind of take some.

And it was like by some top chef. And it was delicious. Well, there was a lot left over. So what are they going to do with the leftovers? I like the food so much. I said, hey, can I get a to-go box with that? And my wife was so embarrassed. I wish you was.

So embarrassed. And needles says, oh, sorry, we don't have any dog bags or whatever you call them to go containers. Which I think they were lying to me because they have to have something to put the food in. Right? So they could have given it to me. Did you have a dress up? Yeah, I had to dress up. What'd you wear?

I wore a button-up shirt and some jeans and a sports coat. Oh, wow. Yeah. Basically what the airline bought me whenever they lost my bag. Like, I'm not hating on you for asking for the food. Right. But if your wife was embarrassed, it must have been really inappropriate. Because I wasn't there to judge it.

I was just told by somebody that was there that it seemed, it was really embarrassing and really inappropriate. Well, I didn't know if it was inappropriate or not. I just saw good food. But your wife didn't say stop doing that. Well, she didn't know I was going to ask. I just got the urge when they were picking up the plates. I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, because I saw the place.

I was like, can I get it to go back? I'll eat that at home. And my wife was like, when they walked away, she goes, that's kind of embarrassing. I don't know if you're supposed to do that. But, oh, hey, got to try. You don't get things unless you ask. That's exactly right. You ask them if they say no.

The worst they can say no. And then they can laugh at you. No, they can say worse than that. I think say no and you don't get to keep the award. There are two different things. But yeah, I just wonder, that true story, though? True story. There you go.

All right. Who's your source? Don't worry about it. Do you have your clothes picked out for CMAs? I guess. Yes. Same outfit. Oh, there, yeah, yeah.

Come on, Bobby Pong's show. In studio with us is our friend Cam. Hey, Cam, it's been a long time. I know. Where you've been? Working. Yeah? Doing the thing.

Trying to hide and make good music. That's what I was wondering, because we still text and chat and chat. a little bit, but you've been like gone. Yeah. Well, you know, I mean, doing shows and stuff, but like, definitely when you're trying to make music, I feel like if you can kind of hide a little bit, I love when things are a little different, you know? And if you're kind of in the thick of it, sometimes Nashville can get very factory line. I didn't want to do that. I wanted to just sort of like hide. So did you go and like move away for a while?

No, I was here. You just stayed here. I mean, but then just traveling a bunch. So, and I mean, opening for George Strait in Vegas. We're in Vegas a bunch. And then did some Tim and Faith dates, did some festivals. So run around, but still here. And then I record in California. That's where I'm from. And then also in Nashville. So when did you start this whole recording process? Like, when were you like, let's get back at it? Probably about a year ago. Got into it and started writing and then, yeah, kind of found what we wanted and sort of just honed in on it over the last, probably like six months. Cam is here. gonna play your new song. By the way,

you're gonna play your new song, and I'm curious to know the story behind it, but same people that wrote Burning House. Yes. Wrote the one you're about to play? Yeah, Tyler Johnson, Jeff Basker, and myself. And Jeff came up with this really cool, like, magnificent seven-type melody on the piano,

and I was like, oh, this is so good. Explain what a magnificent seven. You know the... Don't ask me if I know. I'm the man of the people. I don't know. Right. Oh, okay.

I have no idea. Well, it's kind of like this old movie that has, like, it's like orchestral. You'd have to Google it. I don't know how to quite to explain it. But bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum is like a very like it just sounded so catchy. I was like, okay, I need something that's going to be weighted and heavy and sort of like tug at people's heartstrings because I love that. And I could think of basically one of my really good friends whose parents went through a really rough divorce.

One of my friends who's currently going through a really rough divorce. Like there's a lot of people that have to deal with this. like most relationships are going to hit this sort of infidelity thing head on. And what I wanted to do as my superpower as a songwriter is write a world where the person that was the other woman, that's me singing this, I get to be the bad guy and say, you know what, I didn't know, and now that I know I'm being honest and I'm apologizing. And that's how I wish it went for them. So I get to do that for them in this song, you know, and then it sounds really heavy,

but it's like Abba meets Fleetwood Mac dance time as you're like absorbing this really heavy thing. As you're apologizing it, yes, yes. So the song is called Diane. That's right. Okay. Are you, by the way, are you like turning into Diane or is it just a song?

So Diane is the wife that I'm singing to. So this is for her. Okay, so got it. Cam is here, and we're going to hear this song now live. This is called Diane here on the Bobby Bone Show whenever you guys are ready. Hey guys, so because of licensing roles, We can't play anything with music on this Iheart radio channel or podcast anymore.

But you can go to Bobby Bones.com to see it. We hate that we had to take it down. It wasn't our decision, but I just wanted to keep you up, and we wanted to keep up as much as possible. So go to bobbybones.com to watch or hear whatever you're missing right now. And thank you for listening to the show. And sorry about all the legal stuff. Mr. Bob.

A song called Diane. Look at that. Man, he sings so good. Thanks. That's a morning workout right there. Yeah. It's like, bah. Did you play that when you were doing show, like before you put it out?

Did you play it? No. So you just kept it all under wraps? This is brand new. Like we're like in the back room like before we came out here. We're like, so how should we do this? You know? So we don't quite, this is new for us.

Yeah. It's fun to have it be new again because, you know, you play the same songs over and over and over. When you have new music, it's actually, it's a really fun little thrill for us as musicians to figure it out how to do it live. Do you still do the singing thing in other languages? Yeah. Do you? Do I mean. I have done it, and then for fun I sing to myself like that, yeah.

Like what's your preferred other language to sing in? One of my favorite songs, this is funny, this is one of my favorite songs is in Bulgarian. I love Bulgarian. So you're fluent in Bulgarian? No, so I was like a choir nerd. So I love like those stacked harmonies in Diane is like, that's my upbringing. It's like being in choirs and then a cappella groups and stuff. So when I was in choirs as a kid, we learned how to sing in like,

14 languages. Oh. So I could just sing. So what would you sing in Bulgarian? Give us all something in Bulgarian. Breaks off from that Bulgarian. Yeah. Yeah.

When you were out of Chervendera et taka-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-cri-a-capa-a-a-cri-a-a-cri-a-cli-a-cli-old. No. Yeah, that was you can't touch this, empty-handling. Yeah, it was really good. Oh, I like it. Okay. That's good. When you were out with George Strait, do you could spend any time saying hello?

I got to take a shot of tequila with him. him where he went back out for his encore. What? He takes shots of tequila? He has his own. Yeah, he's his own tequila. Codigo. How do I know this?

I don't even drink tequila. I need to get me some of that. I don't even like tequila, but I'll take it. It's good. It's really good. That's got to be pretty crazy, huh? Yeah. Him and Norma, they're like the sweetest people. The whole crew is like genuine good people.

And you know what's really cool is they get up on stage. They don't have, you know, video walls and pyrotechnics. He just stands there and delivers. And people, like, this is like a moment for them. They travel to Las Vegas. First night, 30 number ones, second night, another 30 number ones. And people are like crying about their first love, dancing to their wedding songs. I mean, it's just like a lifetime moment for a bunch of people.

So it's super cool to be a part of that. I got to go. Well, I'm really excited. You're back. Thank you. I'm happy to be back. It's good to see. Look at Cam coming up.

Are you doing the yellow thing anymore? Are you done with that? I got these little yellow. So now it's just like a little bit. Yeah. Now it's not quite as obvious. but you'll, true fans will ask me and I'll, I gotta bring it.

You point out the yellow. Because I'm a true fan. That's right. I know you are. Where's the yellow, Cam? Show me the yellow. Everybody download, stream, say hi to a Diane.

I don't know, any Diane out there. Be kind to them. Good to see you, Cam. Good to see you too. And I'm sure we will see you soon, very soon again. Congrats on tonight, by the way. Thank you very much.

Your word is do. Go. Do. Do I make you want to? Yeah, it's. You have to sing the song. Do I make you want to shout? Do I, do I want to?

But you had no melody. There's a song called Do I Make It? But you didn't sing it right. Do I make you want to dance yourself? Come on, lunch. We can't get it. Raymond, does he get that? No, okay.

Yeah, you can't just say words, and Raymond was the judge. Don't be sour. Hey, put the asterisk by it. Eddie didn't win a scholarship. It's okay. I understand that, but I don't like losing and I... Okay, thank you. Bobby Bones show.

Bobby Bones show. The latest from Nashville in Hollywood. Amy's 32nd Skinny. So it's been announced that Lauren Elena, Dustin Lynch, Cam, and Sarah Evans will ride on floats during the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade on November 23rd. The parade coverage hosted by Matt Lauer and Savannah Guthrie will air live

on NBC. Yeah, so we get to watch them lip sync. And to be fair, everyone's like, oh, they're going to be lip-sinking. They have to lip-syn. You can't drive a car down the road and have a sound system rolling with you the whole time. I feel like last year Brett Eldridge did a good job. He looked like he was really, really singing. Yeah, I don't remember.

Can't say I remember. Yeah, what else? Okay, so Adam Levine released a little statement or made a comment about Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani's love, and he says that they are so in love, it's disgusting. So I take that as them being like super happy and gushy and love together. I'm Amy. That's your 30 Second Skinny. Lunchbox sent me a note.

Should like to hear it? Yeah. He wrote it all in third person. Okay. Again, Lunchbox, who sits to my right, wrote me a note, and this came from him. Okay, can't wait. Lunchbox had a ton of candy after going trick-or-treating as an adult.

Let's be honest. LB can cover a lot more ground than slow-moving kids. More houses equals a lot more candy. No chance L-B can eat all the candy, so LB donated all the candy. El-B wants to make sure everybody knows he donated it. Props to LB. I see you. Where did you donate it?

I took it to Kid Power, the after-school organization I volunteer at, gave all the candy to the kids, and felt good about myself, I patted myself on the back, and I just wanted to bring it to your attention that I'm doing something good. Hit that. I see you. Okay, but you don't have to write it to me like someone else was writing it. Like, you can just say, hey, I like to be recognized. It's also kind of weird that you are asking to be recognized.

That's okay. Or you could just say, hey, like if people have extra candy or a lot of it like I do, an idea would be go donate it because I took it to kid power. There you go. I think that kids would like that. Yeah, but I wanted Bobby to read it, but I wanted him to be serious about it. I'm like, man, listen to this noble thing. Okay, okay. Lunch walk you to man.

Yeah, thank you. Tell LB we said, what up. Elv. LB appreciates it. Police rushed to 1,600 Charleston Avenue because there was a shooting. And they were like, oh, crap. The 911 operator got the call, heard the shooting.

The dispatcher heard the guy say, I've been shot. Another guy said, I'm going to shoot you. And so they're hearing this, all in the bag. Some guys, I've been shot in the back. Police got there, like many, many, many cars. Apparently they were playing call of duty and the pocket dialed. Oh, my goodness. Are you serious?

Yeah. And so the 911 operator heard a pocket dial a call of duty and they were like, and that's all it was. Wow. Wow. It's kind of funny. It is now, but they thought it was a real thing. Thankfully nobody got hurt.

Yeah. What if people came busting in blazing? Yeah. Is that what they call it, busting and blazing? Yeah. Bobby Bones, everybody. Transmitting across America. This is a Bobby Bones show.

Come on, Bob. That brand new Blake Shelton song coming up in about two minutes, world premiering his songs, a new album, Not Tomorrow, Amy's Morning Corny coming up in about a minute. But today is David Schwimmer's 51st birthday. You would know David Schwimmer as... Ross from Friends.

Yeah, Ross from Friends. Here are five random facts. You may not know about Friends. one of our favorite shows from our lifetime. David Schwimmer did not audition for the part of Ross. It was written for him a year before the pilot was filmed. He even turned it down initially. Whoa.

But he was the one the show was written for. Oh, amazing. Number two, Friends were supposed to have just four main characters. Ross, Rachel, Monica, and Chandler. Phoebe and Joey were just supposed to be supporting roles. Because they were kind of odd. Yeah. They were kind of be the side.

But then they got all six of them in his magic. Number three. Rachel almost wasn't in the last season. Jennifer Anderson wanted out of the show. She was like, I don't think Rachel has any more character on her. Wow. Number four. Now you want the big one?

Yeah, I want the big one. Ross and Emily's marriage. The British, you know, I take the Rachel, he's marrying Emily. Totally. It was supposed to actually be meant to last on the show forever. But the actress who played her didn't want to stay in America in film because she's pregnant. Oh, my goodness. Wow.

Okay. And then how about that? Ross's monkey Marcel was written out of the show because scenes were too time-consuming because they had a monkey. Remember early seasons of Marcel? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He went and had the movie crew with Jean-Claude Van Damme. Remember that? So the monkey just took up too much of the time to film with him?

Yeah. Because you can't really get him to – it's like working on lunchbox. Yeah, it takes a while. I don't know what that means, but I'll take it as a compliment. Yeah, hey. It means you better. He's a famous actor. Marcel the monkey is?

Yeah, but he got cut. A lot of people know who he is. Okay, but he went and had a movie career. So cut me off a movie career. It's a movie crew inside the TV show. It wasn't real. It wasn't real. Anyway, let's go over.

Amy's got the morning corny. Hit it. The morning corny. What do you call a bee that lives in America? What do you call a bee that lives in America? A USB. USB. Like a USB.

Yeah, like a USB cord. But it's a USB. Oh, come on. Come on. Anybody that works in computer technology, go to work today and tell that, and you will get so many laughs. Ooh, or if you teach computer at school, ooh, kids are going to love you. All right. Thank you.

There it is. That was the morning corny. So now the Halloween is over. I know Thanksgiving's coming, but it's basically Christmas. Yeah. Yeah. Whoop. It's time.

I mean, I don't get into it that much, but your favorite Christmas song, you got to pick one. Amy, your favorite Christmas song. Mariah Carey, all I want for Christmas is you. Yeah. Man, that does make it feel like Christmas. Just hearing that. Okay, what's yours? From the Santa Claus and from Home Alone.

Oh, yeah. The drifters, white Christmas. Yeah, bodo, butto. Good one. I always like this one. I like the park. I dream of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to know

Man, that's a jam. It is a jam. And I like, when they get to a ha-ha-ha-ha. It's good. This is my favorite part here. Slave bells in the snow. This is my favorite part here coming up. Take a high.

I am dreaming. Man, that's a good one. Eddie. Oh, I'm the same thing, White Christmas, but Bing Crosby version, 1940. No, no, no.

I think I do World War II right here. All right, everybody. All you guys overseas fighting the good fights. This is for you. Come back home safely. Do the fire crackling. Like a...

Frosty beer mug. He's trying to convince us. Do you hear him selling it? I'm playing this in my mind. It's good, but I'm a little like, oh. Oh. Oh.

You guys bought a crazy house party? Like, It's Christmas. That's how I do it. I go hard. Lunchbox? Santa Claus is coming to town. Jackson 5.

Hit it. Oh. This is kind of out of nowhere a good one. Okay. Hey Morgan number two, do you have one? You're like 12. What is yours? Is it like...

It's a Nile Horan. One direction. Go ahead. Morgan number two, 24. I actually know it's a drummer boy by Pinnatonics. A little drummer. Which drummer boy? The big one or little one?

Little one for the one. Little one. A little drummer boy. For the way. They do some cool stuff. Yeah. We can do that though. Amy, hit me with something.

Give me a little white Christmas. Okay. Go do what Christmas. Do I do the beat? Whatever you want. You just started. I'm dreaming. A boy.

Christmas Just like the ones I used to know The same Yeah The same The Bobby Bones show Bobby Bones There's a couple

And they're looking for sponsors To sponsor their entire wedding And they'll put up all the logos Wow So I'll read this to you tell me how you feel about it They say they don't mind logos behind them and their wedding pictures. They won't mind anyone giving a toast

announcing who sponsored the wedding or the DJ asking the guests to use social media to promote the company. They say that if the companies will donate items, they'll make gift bags. If someone's interested in doing hair and makeup, please. They'll give shout-outs.

They'll even turn their reception into a red carpet event with step and repeat in front of like a wall with the names behind it. Wow. How do you feel about this? I mean, I guess if you're trying to have a wedding and you can't afford to do it and this is your way of getting it done. I can't hate on it. I personally wouldn't do it. But I guess if I had to, maybe.

No, let me run two scenarios by you. Okay, run it. You either have a really inexpensive wedding with no frills, with no sponsors, or a super expensive awesome one full of sponsors everywhere. Okay, an inexpensive, no frills wedding. Me too. Okay. That's why to me I look at this and I go, nah, I just, it wouldn't be my thing. Okay. Lunchbox? Oh, I want the glitz, the glamour. Give me the sponsors.

Anything free is great. And people will have a better time in a glitz and glamour wedding than a, like a rundown, like lame wedding. I don't think they'd have a better time per se. I think people have as good a time as they're surrounded by people having a good time. Because you have better options. Like, oh, look at this. You got the confetti cannon brought to you by confetti kings. And it's like, whoa, that's awesome.

Over at your wedding. Here, throw a piece of grass brought to you by you. nature. Boring. Wow. By nature. Monday is no longer the saddest day of the week. Wednesday is. Why? Hump day?

Because Monday we come back and we're a little bit fired up because we've been taught it's a bad day. So we're like, okay, I'm not going to let it. I'm starting to. But Wednesday, yeah, hump day. Okay. The happiest are Thursday, Friday and Saturday. How long do you let your kids eat candy after Halloween, Eddie? About a month. A month?

Yeah, a month. And then we've got to get rid of it. What? It's got to go. Experts say let them have a week and then donate the rest. Oh, wow. Because it affects their teeth. And the kids come in with so many cavities, like if they have that candy, that much candy

for over a week. Yeah. My mom used to always tell us, because the dentist told her, if they just have one candy day a week, that's it, no other candy any other day. So Saturday was candy day, and I could have it all day long. But then the rest of the week, it was hidden away. But did you have it all day long? Yeah, I woke up and I watched Save By the Bell and I ate candy.

And it was amazing. That's what Lunchbox still does. Every day. But I don't know why the dentist told my mom that, and I don't know why she believed him, but it was pretty awesome. We had Candy Day. I kind of got a surprise for somebody coming up. Oh. Me?

Me? Maybe. Maybe? Me? Maybe. Oh, man. It's for one person. It's for one person.

One. Is it a big surprise? Yeah. A girl or a boy. Oh, wow. It's cool. Girls. It's a big surprise.

It's for a boy. Oh. Oh. Okay. I'm excited. Yes. Yes. Yes.

Lunchbox, you're not even close. Oh, hold on. Eddie didn't come close at all. Yeah, but he at least no songs. He said blonde hair, not even close. That's another verse. Okay, lunchbox. How about this one?

Yes, thank you. Sam, hot, body like a back road. You just did. Oh, man. That's my point. I just gave you this one. Oh, girl from the Southside. No.

Got it. Got a girl. You said gods don't count. Wait, let's do one more. No, I never said gots don't count. You said ants and gotts. No, I didn't. I said, whatever.

Ray not playing the hook really helps. It's when he played it. Yeah, it throws me off. Oh, shut. By the way, I have a surprise for somebody. Oh, yeah. You ready for the surprise? Yeah.

Okay, hold on. I got surprise for you. Amy knows what it is. Tell me. Yeah, now I know now that I know. Are they going to love the surprise? Oh, my goodness. They're going to freak out.

Okay. Coming up next. Oh, come on. The Bobby Bones show. So tonight in Chicago is the Radio Hall of Fame ceremony. I'll be inducted. It'll be a whole thing. Everybody's dressing up nice, I assume.

Lunchbox, what are you wearing? I figure I'll be wearing the same thing I wore the other night, a sports coat with my jeans and my nice shoes. Oh, jeans? Oh, wow. Are we going jeans? I was going to get a suit. It's black tie optional.

But does that mean jeans? Lunchbox can be lunchbox I don't think anyone else will be wearing jeans But he's him Well see here's the thing guys You should have informed me this before like six hours before the event Informed you this Well we you're supposed to ask

No I think it was on emails many emails Sure to me Yeah Okay well you're good Do you wear whatever you want buddy Great You have a suit Just wear a suit

Yeah I mean And I know for a fact it was in emails and you just didn't see it. I guarantee it wasn't in my email. Guarantee. I'll bet you. How much you want to bet? How did we all know and you don't? Like, how does Eddie know and you not?

Eddie does not know that? I do know. It's in two emails. Show me. Two. Okay, I'll show you. Okay, we have to search the emails on the air. Pull it up right now.

We're going to sit here on the air. Show me. Go in your junk mail or your trash and pull it up and show me. Eddie, what are you wearing? I'm wearing a suit. I don't know if I'm going to do a tie or not, but I'm bringing it just in case. Amy's wearing supposedly... Stop, it's a dress.

It's a normal... It's a dress. I don't know who you heard that from. I mean, I do know who you heard it. I heard it's going to be va-va-boo. No, don't say that because that's... It's fine. Yeah.

It does have... It is weird in the back zipper area, so I'm going to be... Oh, showing little back? No, it doesn't show the back at all. It's totally covered. I'm just saying it does a weird bump thing, so I'm going to like probably lean up against a wall a lot to hide that. Yeah, yeah. So, and then...

I mean, I guess everybody from works coming. Do you feel like Ray should have been able to come? Yeah. Oh, yeah, a little bit. Totally. Ray, do you, because Ray always sits behind, Ray, do you feel like you should have been able to come? I honestly thought I should have been able to come, but logistically just didn't make sense. Somebody has to be back here to man the ship.

That's true. That's true. If you wouldn't mind, hit that music, that, whatever that game show music is. Thank you. Hit it. No, not that one. Price is right. All right, Rick, come on down.

We got your plane ticket in a room. You're coming to Chicago today. What? What? What are you talking about? Yeah, so I got an extra... He's going to Shytown! I got an extra ticket and a room,

and so I couldn't have you not come. So you're going to leave with lunch... Dang! You're going to leave with lunchbox and ed. You just been with the show too long, and once a spot opened up, I was like, we can't not have Ray. That's what I'm talking about.

Wow. Yeah, and you work so hard. So I don't know how logisticate show is going to work tomorrow, but we'll figure it out. We'll figure it out. So, Ray, yeah, you'll be flying out with those guys. You have a suit? Oh, of course. I got like two.

Oh, man. At least you know it's Black Tie Affair. I told him at the, I told him right now, lunchbox. Like, I literally told Ray right now. I'm just saying Eddie's pulling up those emails and he has nothing. So it looks like lunchbox stands corrected. Thank you. You guys are wrong.

You do stay corrected. Thank you. You don't even know what that means. Yeah, it means that's proved right. Let him. Okay. Lunchbox stands corrected. Hey, Ray, so you're leaving this?

What time's your flight, Eddie? Like 11 o'clock, 1130. Oh, I'll have to the show. Right, you're leaving, so you've got to get home and get your suit. Well, now there are rules. Raymond's our head producer. He always stays behind and has to run the show. Ray, there is a rule for you.

Okay. And only for you. Turn the music off. Oh, okay. This is serious talk. This is serious talk. This is Hall of Fame Bobby talking to you. You are not allowed a single drink until after my speech.

Yeah, I honestly don't like drinking, especially with, like, memorable Hall of Fame stuff. I don't ever, like, this is a major, major milestone life events I don't drink during. Uh-uh. Like Lunchbox's Wedding? Yeah. Uh-uh. You showed up to Lunchbox's wedding and you were out of your skull already. You missed the ceremony and you only came to the reception and you just.

didn't even know where you were. That's my new rule. Okay. All I'm saying is, you want to have some drinks after? Great. You just have a history of not making the best decisions with alcohol. No drinking until after I finish my speech. Absolutely.

Totally agree to that. Okay. Yeah. Hey, and you know you got to bring a suit. Eddie, you still got that email? No. We'll come back. We'll see Eddie can find it.

Okay? I just want to let Ray know. And we're all dressing up. Follow me on Instagram. you go watch, see what we're wearing tonight. It'll also be broadcast live. I'll post a link later on Twitter. You can listen to it.

I don't know how exciting it's going to be. Probably really exciting. But yeah. Anyway, okay, thank you. Congratulations, Ray. We're glad you're coming, and we're back on one second. By the way,

Lunchbox would like to give a speech later on. Oh, okay. Because he said he should have been the one presenting me tonight at the Radio Hall of Fame. Absolutely. I've worked with you the longest. So he wanted to deliver the speech.

That's valid. That's cool. So he wants to do it on the air since he's not doing it tonight. Tonight I've chosen our boss. He's been very instrumental in my career and we've moved up together. Dang, lunchbox, I didn't think about that. You and I should have done it together. Oh, now Amy wants to be part of the speech thing.

Why are you trying to jump on my train? That's coming up. Lunchbox do his speech in a bit. There's a bride who's confessed that she wanted to get in these shoes for a wedding so bad that she broke one of her toes. No. I'm sorry. No shoes are worth that. Her name is Stephanie.

and she was like, I tried on the shoes, I love them, and she couldn't get one of her toes in. She had the doctor snap a tendon. No. Whoa. So she could get the toe in. And then after the wedding, she had to wear a walking boot and was out of work for a few weeks. Then boom, right in the wedding shoe.

I mean, come on. Explain this to me, Amy. I can't. I am not that dedicated to any shoe out there ever. And why wouldn't she just buy a bigger size? People are getting freckle tattoos at an alarming rate. Oh, yeah, I've seen that. What do you think about that?

Why? I think it's awesome because I have lots of freckles. Yes, I don't have to pay for them. Cosmetic tattooing's been around forever, but now they're getting freckle requests. They cost about $250. A freckle? For like a patch, a freckles. Oh, okay. Most people like them because they draw attention to your face.

And it's where they put them tattoos in their face. Yeah. The only tattoo ever got on my face when I was in prison. And then you got that removed. Good thing on your forehead. Yeah, got that taken out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's play a game now.

Is it fake news? Let's go. Is it fake news? Man, this is breaking news. You know how they rated Osama bin Laden's place years ago? They just released a document that said in his video collection, one of the ones he watched the most was Charlie bit my finger, the video that took over YouTube years back.

If you don't remember it, here's the clip. Daddy Vittman. Okay. Thank you. Okay. So we have to figure out if that's fake news or not. Lunchbox, can I ask you a question? Yeah.

On your fake news stories, are you writing them yourself? Be honest. I have a help. We have writers. Okay. Okay. Mike D. I write them with them in.

Okay. I just need to know this because that makes sense. Because there's like audio. Because there's too good. It's too good for just Lunchbox to write if it's fake. So, okay. That's a lot. Is that fake news or real news?

Real. I'm going to go real news too. I think it's real news. Eddie? Bones, I'm going real. I like it. We have three reels. What is it? Man, you guys are such fools. That's real news. That was real news, real news.

Real news. Yeah, the CIA released a press, did a press release, and they had that in there talking about how that was one of the videos they found that he watched the most. Weird. Me too. A Wisconsin mom was tying down this. this swimming pool on top of her van. And they're driving, and the swimming pool won't stand on top of the van.

It's one of those, the portable ones. So she puts her nine-year-old up. She goes, okay, get in the swim pole and hold on the top of the van. No, no, no, no. And hold it down. No. So callers. The only reason I'll laugh because nobody got hurt.

Right. A caller calls 911 and goes, there's a kid on top of a van, hold the swimming pool down. And so the police both pulled it over. And she told police that they didn't have enough room inside the minivan. She decided to put the pull up there. She couldn't strap it down, so she put the kid up there to hold it down. Everybody's okay, but what do you do? Do you take the kid away?

I mean, there has to be some sort of an evaluation happening. Yeah, that's not a smart thing. No. What if it's an extra strong nine-year-old? Well, and stop. No, I know. You can't do that. No.

How far are you going? Oh, okay. That's quality. No, it doesn't matter. How far and how fast? Again, it doesn't matter. If they're in the neighborhood? Okay, that's different.

No, you can't put it in. nine-year-all top of a band and drive-around period. Okay, by the way, Lunchbox will give a speech coming up. We will meet the newest member of our show, Hillary. And we have a guy that was a clown who passed out in the wrong house. Someone just walked in and found him.

What? Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's coming up too. All in a minute. Hold on. Are you getting a lot of people saying, Hey, so, have you seen stranger things too yet? Yeah, I guess I see a few, and I see people talking about online everywhere. And I haven't started. Me neither. And I'm going to. And Eddie started, right, Eddie?

Yeah, I'm already like four deep, four episodes. You like it? I really do like it. It's got a different twist to it than the first one. I'm enjoying it so far. Anybody else in the show watching it? No. And I'm not being a hater.

I just haven't. I can't watch two shows at once. But I was reading this story about Millie Bobby Brown, who plays seven? 11. 11. 11. One of the numbers. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So she plays 11, you know, her nosebleeds and stuff. but she's deaf in one ear completely. Oh, wow. Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, when she was, I guess, born, she had partial loss of hearing that she gradually lost her one of her ears completely. So she's deaf on one side. I'm blind on one side of my eyes.

Yeah. Like my right eye doesn't work. What do you have on your body that doesn't work quite right? Lunchbox? Oh, that's easy. My arms, I can't touch my shoulders. Like, when you bend your arms, I can't touch my shoulders. So if my collar's messed up, I'm just kind of in trouble.

I've got to take the shirt up, fix the collar, put it back on. He can't do the macarena. It's very sad. Yeah, my palms can't face the sky, right. Yeah. Amy, what's wrong with your body a little bit? I mean, where do I start? I have a speech impediment, and I also have depth perception issues.

Yeah, you're pretty clumsy. Yeah. And like R's and W's together really hard. ADD a little bit. Oh, yeah. I think you have ADHD, H, H, H, H, H, D. Yeah. And sometimes my short-term memories a little.

Oh, boy. Hey, my long term. Yeah. Sometimes, like, one day I'll remember something totally fine, and then the next day, I don't. And you have death perception issues. Yeah, I did say that. Okay, just making sure you remember it. I got her.

Okay. I see what you did. I was like, whoa, maybe you have a memory of all of them. That's funny. Okay. Thank you. Eddie. Oh, my, I don't know if you know this, but I can't breathe entirely.

Like, my nose is never clear. Wait. What? You have, like, a deviated sentence? Something, but, like, I've never been able to just clear. Clearly take a deep breath. That's like blocked. That's what all the girls say

when they want to get a nose job. Oh, they have a deviated septum? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Why don't you get a nose job? I haven't looked into it. I've just never thought about it other than, like, when I'm trying to run

and I'm like, I really can't breathe through my nose ever. I guess it wouldn't be a nose job. It would literally be a deviated. Like, he would really go in for real surgery. Like, open up my nostrils a little bigger. Well, I mean, some girls do have it. Yeah, but not really. Well, while they're going in there,

they use it as opportunity to maybe make their nose a little smaller. I have deviated. I want to get deviated peck implants. Is it possible? Yeah. The Bobby Bones show. Tonight, we'll all be in Chicago and Ray's going as well now. We're all going to be there for the Radio Hall of Fame.

I'll be inducted, which is pretty crazy. Lunchbox would like to now give a speech as if he were presenting since he's worked with me the longest. How long as we've been together, buddy? 14 years. 14 years. Man, that's a lot of my life. It is. I don't know how many the percentage-wise.

but it's a lot of it. And I had to find who I wanted to present me tonight. And I was sitting right next to you this whole time. Right under your nose. He didn't even know. And so I ended up going with Rod Phillips, who's head of the entire format. But we've been together way before that. He was one of the first people to put me on stations once I kind of built my own company.

He was one of the first ones to go, hey, come. So we've been together for 12 years working beside not 14, like lunchbox and I. I give him that. So he's doing it tonight. But Lunchbox would like to say a few words. If he were to give the speech, Lunchbox, it is now your room. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you.

It's such an honor to be here. Please be seated. Please be seated. It's not about me tonight. It's not about me. Thank you. Okay. Ladies and gentlemen, I now have the honor of introducing to you the newest and youngest

member to be elected to the Radio Hall of Fame. Bobby is just a kid from a small town in Arkansas who has never given any except for some government cheese and sports equipment. From a young age, Bobby had big dreams and high hopes. And he is proof, hard work pays off. The TV was his best friend growing up and, well, it still is. Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce to you, Bobby Bones! Yeah.

There he is. That's it? Wow. What do you mean, Amy? You can't stay up there for hours. It's real quick. Oh, I thought It's like three to five minutes

But what would you have said, Amy, if you were presenting anything? Just from the heart. Wait, wait, didn't you think that was pretty good, Bobby? I mean, come on, I need some feedback here. Tell me, what did you think of it, Bobby? You loved it? I loved my favorite one I've ever heard. Me too, it's really good.

It's really good. It's really good. It was good. I don't want to start a thing. Me either. I don't want to get him going. No, he's already riled out. Yeah, go ahead.

Wow. I mean, you did it good. Yeah. I want to know your honest opinion. I thought it was good. By the way, Lunchbox has this thing where he wears these sunglasses

now where he thinks he looks like Eric Church. Oh my goodness. Have you seen him? No. They look ridiculous. He has these big old sunglasses and Eddie put it up

on his Instagram. I was like, hey, what do you think lunchbox looks like? And I was like, uh, you L-O-L. I did. I laughed out loud.

But a lot of people thought lunchbox looked pretty cool. Yeah. Have you seen them? I'm going right now. Mike D. Showing me the picture.

Oh, my gosh. I mean, If it doesn't scream Eric Church, I don't know what does. So you think you look like Eric Church? I absolutely look like Eric Church. Yeah. Okay. Maybe.

See? I don't see Eric Church, but I mean, I see the sunglasses. Pull the phone further for her face. Oh, now I see it. Yeah, back up further. Oh, okay, yeah. I see the Chief. The Chief.

I mean, if you got, I don't know why you guys, you guys always like to hate and then people always had to come back and be like, you know, he does look like the Chief. Sort of like at, you know, at the Iheart Festival. I looked like Chris Martin, and everybody's like, yeah, he does. And then now this angle with the glasses. You don't, though. You don't look like Chris Martin, Lunchbox.

Oh, my goodness. Lunchbox, you weren't one person yet in the last five years. You have looked like. Tom Brady. Chris Martin, Eric Church, and Steve Buscemi. None of them look the same, by the way. I can't help with that I'm a chameleon when I'm wearing. You know what I mean?

Those glasses make me look like the chief. Like, I could walk places and people would be asking me, hey, chief, chief. No pictures, man. Oh, wow. Wow, no pictures. You really don't think I... All right, whatever.

You guys hate it. We'll put it up at bobbybones.com. Yeah, please do. Police in Vermont said they found a 43-year-old man intoxicated and sleeping in the upstairs bedroom of a house. He was found early in the morning by someone who lived in the house. He had some alcohol. He had his mugshot taken in his creepy clown costume and what remained of his makeup. Can you imagine walking up and there's a drunk clown bed?

No, I can't... I mean, yes, I can, but it would be scary. I would probably just start beating him up. Yeah. I would turn around and run out the house. Maybe I'd do that. Now I think about it. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Now that I think about it more. Yeah. That's probably what I... If the clients aren't attacked me, I'd probably fight back, but I'd probably run. Yeah.

Now that you say that you say that. Lunchbox, thank you for the speech, buddy. I really don't think you liked it. And I don't understand why. Like, what you didn't... No, I thought it ever said I didn't like it. That was fantastic. But you were kind of sarcastic about.

I just weren't your honest meaning. I really want to know what you thought. I thought it was pretty right on. Me too. That was right on. The Bobby Bone Show. So for a month or so, we went through the process of having to find a new phone screener because Mike D. is now coming into the studio.

Yeah. And I guess today we get to announce she's actually joining the show today for the first time. Our new phone screen are Hillary. Everybody! Hey! Welcome to the show. Thank you. I'm really excited.

Look at this. First. Are you nervous right now or now? A little bit. I'm doing okay. So she's been, Hey Mike, how's she doing back there? He has no idea.

He's working out something else. So you've been working a little bit answering phones. Everything is good. Everybody's nice to you. We thought we'd bring you in and we'd all give you a piece of advice about joining the show.

So have your advice ready. I like that. I need as much advice as I can get. A lot of people that were like, hey, why didn't you hire me? Why didn't hire me? Because it was kind of controversial. I didn't hire Starbucks Stephen

or I didn't hire other people. but I ended up hiring Hillary because she's worked with our show in two other markets in Tallahassee and then in Charleston, Charleston, South Carolina. We're still on both those stations there. And so she knows the show. We've worked together before at events. We have. We've met a couple times.

And she was already working in the building. I met her in the bathroom. Prior to today? No, today. Like in the bathroom. Because I really hadn't, I had missed when she was coming in for a. interviews and y'all were talking to her for various things and I had never seen her in the building but I know a lot about her but then I met her in the bathroom and so what's your life

goal Hillary um honestly I just ever since I was a little one to work in country music and be on a show like this so this is really cool wow that's what she said in the interview too and it's like it's good she was the first person interviewed it's good answer so everyone's going to offer you Hillary's our new phone screener like you may hear occasionally may not you know Mike D pops in every year or so right Mike D yeah yeah yeah how How's she doing? Pretty good. Yeah?

Doing good. You can be honest. No, yeah, solid. Yeah, solid. He said, solid. So, piece of advice, lunchbox. Hillary, our new phone screener is here. What would you like to tell?

First, I'd like to say, welcome to the show. Welcome to the show. Yeah. Get a phone spender. Yes, yes. Get a picture over at first. Yeah, get a picture. And it's an honor to be a part of this show.

Not many people can, but I want to say, grow some thick skin because you're going to get your feelings, and it's going to be awkward, and there's going to be awkward moments. you just have to get over it. So don't let every comment online get to you. Oh, the online stuff will get you. So grow some thick skin. I like that. I'm a little sensitive sometimes, so I need that advice. That'd be a tough one.

That'd be a tough one. So what's up? No, that's it. I mean just grow thick skin and welcome to the team, yo. Do you know everybody's name? Like, who's that? I do. Eddie, we go way back.

We've known each other for four years. Okay. Who's that? Ray. Who's that? Lunchbox. Who's that? Morgan, number two.

It's correct. No Mike D. Mike D. Amy. And you know what that is? And me. Bobby, you hired me. Okay, good, good, good.

Okay, Amy, our new phone screener, Hillary is here. It's her first day on the show. What advice would you give her? I would say if you sense anything from Bobby at times where it's like he's not talking to you in the morning or seems in a hurry or maybe is like yelling water and he's just busy. Like, because now I mean you're going to, let's be honest. The person that's newest to the show. You're probably going to be the water girl.

You're the water person. So what does that mean? Because I heard that this morning, just water randomly down the hall. Yes. What's happening? I will tell you. If you just hear water. It means Bobby's thirsty and somebody figure out how to get him some water.

It means wait a minute. This is my segment of advice. You're attacking me though in this segment. Well, I'm preparing her. I don't wonder. She says she's sensitive. So I don't want you to take it. Bobby doesn't mean anything by it.

Like if he's not saying hi or he's yelling water. It means he's busy. He's got a lot of things to crank out first thing in the morning. And really, he's in that work mode. And really, the first, like, two hours, there is a lot of, like, work, work, work happening. So don't take offense to any of it and find water. And I heard. And you're on the clock.

When he says water, you're on the clock. I heard you shout food. So do I need to keep snacks and stuff? Today was a weird day because we got here, I had a bunch to do. And I was hungry. I didn't get a good breakfast. So maybe. It's up to you.

Everybody has their own method. I yell water because I actually have, like, seven seconds between commercials. And then he's talking a lot, and he really doesn't need water. Instead of walking out and going, hey, would someone bother to get me a beverage? I just go, water. And then it appears. Brings me water. Okay.

Thank you. But it's not bad. But it's direct. Yeah. Everything's direct. I like that. Eddie, our producer, you want to give her a piece of advice? Absolutely.

I think the big one is early in the morning. Don't expect anyone to be chipper. You walk in, everyone's kind of in a, I don't know, just grumpy mood because it's the start of the morning. So if you want to volunteer to be the chipper one in the morning, we'll all take it. Because it's hard for us in the morning. It's hard for anybody this early in the morning. I know. I'm just telling her that we're not going to be all like, good morning, Hillary.

We're not going to do that. Okay, my piece of advice would be, you know, if being on time is your thing, you should probably do it. Even if it's not your thing, you should do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was here 30 minutes earlier than what I was told to be here. So I'll be here early. That won't last. I mean, 30 minutes is a little extreme.

I'm just going to be honest with you. You're going to be so tired. 30 minutes a little crazy. The first day of school, everyone's always real excited. She put her outfit out last night. Had a good breakfast. So, well, welcome to the show. You've now been officially, I got to call her yesterday and be like,

you ready to start? And I get to call and be like, you got the job. I'm happy you're here. And welcome to the team. I'm happy to be here. I know you've never really hired somebody outside of your circle. So I'm honored that I can be the first one. But you, to be fair, though, too, you have worked for the show

in other places. So you're sort of already in the circle. Not our personal circle, but she knows enough. Exactly. I know y'all. Yeah. Yeah, but just be careful. You can be outside that circle real quick.

Oh, my goodness. That's a warning for lunchbox. Hey, I'm helping you out. Let's just draw on his line and say, if you don't want to be his buddy, you better watch out. He hates new people, by the way. Yes, he knows. That's it.

Lunchbox is like anybody new. Hold on. I love new people. There hasn't been a new person Come on the show The Lunchbox says No no, every single person you've been mad at that You are crazy

From Eddie to Amy to me To Ray to Nata To everybody Everybody You've had a problem Morgan number one No no no Morgan number one

Would you tell the lunchbox The lunchbox has a problem with everybody right? Yeah sometimes I think he still has a problem with me He does Well I mean there's been instances With everybody With Morgan number one To be fair

His warning to her was growth thick skin That's true. That's true. That's true. All right. Well, Hillary, welcome to the show. Thank you. All right.

Any advice you want to give us about you? Oh, yeah. How old are you? I'm 24. Oh, my gosh. Who's the youngest? You are Morgan number two?

You know? January 6th? Oh. Dang. So we're just like... We're like old people to them. This is for real. Like forever and ever,

if anybody else is joining the show, they're just automatically probably going to be younger than us. And me, the girl, hire an older person. Why would we hire an older? I mean, but I'm the old. But I wanted me the old.

It's an entry-level spot. Okay, fine. I mean, it's just like, maybe 37. It's like all the girls around here is like young and so cute. Oh, look, who has a problem with the new girl? Go ahead. Hilary, tell us about you real quick. Hobbies?

I don't know. I just work. I'm really boring. Hobbies? Yeah, you have a hobby. Dancing, tennis. I don't. I don't sing well.

Lots of my time. Do you party? Oh, I don't drink. You don't drink. There you go. Jeez. All right. I think we're getting along pretty well.

Amo Tamo. All right. Hillary, our new phone screener, we'll put her up. Put a picture up. It'll be your first taste of people online. Hopefully they're nice. They'll be nice. Who does Hillary look like?

A celebrity. I would say... Oh, a mix between like sort of Rachel Bilsson? I thought the same thing. Yeah. Oh, really? That's so funny. Bobby and I did not discuss that.

Yeah, we did, though. We had a whole meeting about it. No, we put your picture up and then assign people. People too. All right, we got to go. All right, Hillary, welcome to the show. The Bob Bowl show. Here's Amy's pile of stories.

Someone went trick-or-treating and they got some goodies that expired 18 years ago. Wow. Yeah. What were they? I don't know some cookie things, but the date on it was 1999 and a dad saw in his kids' bag, took a picture and it was like all over Twitter. Like, what in the world? Who's handing out stuff from 1999?

A couple things, because we're now. a couple of days out of Halloween, but I saw a door where it's like, if you come to trick-a-treat, you know, the World Series is last night, right? It's all over. But it was like, if you've come to trick-or-treat, the game's on, don't knock because my dog goes crazy. If you're an Astrois fan, have some candy. If you're a Dodgers fan, and it was like cans of green beans. Oh.

So that was pretty funny. And then I saw two parents. One parent had a big ice bag on. Then the parent next time had a big ice bag on, and they were holding a baby. Oh, ice, ice, baby. Oh, gosh, I didn't get it at first. I know. I was like, oh, wow, what did, I don't know.

Story number two. Okay, Bobby, I need your thoughts on this because it scares me knowing that I've got a son and my husband played football and I know he wants our son to play football, but did you see it recently about that teenager that died playing football? Well, tell me the story, first of all. Okay, it was blunt force trauma after blocking a tackle. Only 16 years old, he hit his head on the field during the game. In the initial hit, he collapsed immediately taken to the hospital two days later after being in critical condition.

He lost his life. Okay. I played football from the minute I could put pads on in third grade, like tackle football. Yeah. Until I graduated high school. It taught me a lot about adversity. It taught me a lot of teamwork. It absolutely cannot exist in a way that it exists now.

I know it's not cool because people are like, oh, you. You play football, you mean, you can't continue to hit your head against things and not expect to have really bad. Now, this is an anomaly. Well, I mean, yes, but I read like a hard hit to the head like that can. And hard hits to the head over and over and over again. And what they're saying now is that certain leagues, certain groups have hidden exactly what happens when you hit your head over and over and over again. Yeah, I saw that Will Smith movie. Well, that was very tame.

but football's not going to exist like it is or it's going to die completely. They're going to have to change a lot of the rules. You can't just hit heads over and over again. I would not let a kid play football now with knowing with the education that it's going to be like smoking in 20 years. Ooh, yeah, good point.

People just smoke like crazy in the 60 and 70s and they're going to big deal. They played football like that. Yeah, with all a bunch of pads everywhere. And again, I love and play football. I'm not anti-football guy. Right. So, yeah. What else?

You're just like, let's re-evaluate this guy. I'm like, you know, let's just play checkers. All right, what else? So Lion King is doing a live action remake, which I'm pretty pumped about. And Beyonce just joined the cast. To be? She is going to be Nala. Then Donald...

I don't know who Nala is. Well, Donald Glover is Simba and Seth Rogen is Pumba. Oh, people are the animals? I thought it was live action. Live action, yeah, but the humans have to recreate it live. That's not live. I thought they had animals and then humans would... That's not live.

You thought they already have live lions acting. They did in that one movie with the kids in the boat and they're tigers. They've had animals. Okay, but I mean, I feel like Lion King

because it's like speaking roles and stuff. Okay. Yeah. Maybe they have live animals just voices in them. No, these are going to be humans. Okay. It's not Lion King,

then it's the Beyonce King. I feel like Seth Rogan, he got the good part being Pumba. I love it. I'm feeling you don't understand what that movie really is. I feel like you just read that story and don't know.

I don't know. What a live action Lion King is? Yes, I do. Okay, go ahead. Has anybody here ever paid for their Thanksgiving meal? Like when they've gone to someone's house, has the person hosting it charged them, I don't know, 20, 30 bucks? No, but that's a great idea. Party at my house.

Well, I saw on Twitter, it's like a thing. And there's people that are used to paying for Thanksgiving meal that don't think it's a big deal at all. But nobody, people that have never paid for Thanksgiving are like freaking out on Twitter. Like, what? you pay for your meal, but some families say, hey, it ensures, for one, that people are going to show up if they've RSVP because they paid, and then for two, there's not going to be wasted food. I don't hate that because you can do one or two things. One, you can bring money and chip in, or two, you can bring food and chip in.

Okay, well, normally people always bring a side dish or something. Hey, like they always say, gas, grass, or nobody rides for free. Something like that. From what I was seeing in some of these stories, it was like family members, like your aunts having you over, but she's charging you 20 bucks. I'm Amy. That is your pile. That was Amy's pile of stories.

It's not. I don't know. I didn't say, I'm not the one who made it up. Okay, but I didn't say it. I know, but somebody that you know did. I wish they had not, because that's, it's just, it's fine. It's nothing. It's fine.

Yeah, I hear you. Mr. Bobby Bones on Instagram. We'll see you tomorrow on the show. Tomorrow, Kelsey Ballerini comes in. DJ Sinister's mixing the dance party. Runaway June will perform. So a lot going on. Appreciate you being.
