Starting point is 00:03:02 Morning. Why don't I go to Carrie in St. Charles, Missouri? who's on the phone. Hey, Carrie, how are you? Good, how are you? Pretty good. What can I do for you? So a couple of years ago, you guys did a segment. It was right after Amy got her kids, and it was, I think it was what you're grateful for and then what keeps you up at night.
Starting point is 00:03:20 And I still remember to this day, Amy's answers, it, like, touched me to my soul. She said, like, she was grateful for a bottle of lotion because her kids had such dry skin, and they, like, wouldn't let her put it on, and they finally did. And then what kept her up at night is that she slept on the floor with her. I don't know if it was her daughter or her son, but they slept on the floor because they didn't even know what a bed was. And I thought that was incredible. And now all of you guys have had such big life changes. I wanted to ask that question now.
Starting point is 00:03:49 If you guys could go around and see, you know, name one thing that you're grateful for and one thing that keeps you up at night. You, Amy? For me, I am super thankful for therapy. And what keeps me up in night is learning to set boundaries and, you know, how that might have. affect certain people, but I'm trying to practice. What did I do now? Not you. Well, I mean, maybe it's in friendships and relationships, all kinds of things.
Starting point is 00:04:14 You can set boundaries, but I'm not used to it. So it definitely keeps me up because it get worried that I'm letting someone down or hurting someone's feelings when really it's not anything I should think twice about because boundaries are important. But that does keep me up for sure. But that's why I also circle back to why I'm thankful for therapy. Well, too, when you get older, you don't have time for as much bull crap. and you start to go, I just don't care.
Starting point is 00:04:38 Like, this isn't that important in my life, so I'm not going to put a lot of time into it and make it that important. So true. And sometimes that's a boundary of, I just don't have time for this crap. Right. My boundary is, I'm time for you because you're dramatic.
Starting point is 00:04:51 The end, not worried about it. No drama, because you don't exist in my little space anymore. And that's just because we get old and tired. Yeah. Well, it's not even just boundaries regarding to anything dramatic or drama, but just healthy boundaries for yourself that, that totally makes sense. And if other people are aware of boundaries too, then they get it.
Starting point is 00:05:10 Other people, dramatic people, exactly. Eddie, I say I'm grateful for the strength that God gives me to be a parent for four kids. Like, that's tough. And I don't know how I do it. There are certain days or weeks I go through and I'm just like, I don't know how I did that. I would have quit a long time ago. So that's a big one.
Starting point is 00:05:28 I don't know how it happens. So thank you, God, for doing that for me, giving me that strength. I am, keeps me up at night. I would say just worried about this job, like just a little bit. You know, I think it's just a weird time for everyone, and we don't know nothing's guaranteed, and I just hope that we have a job. What do you know that I don't? Nothing.
Starting point is 00:05:46 Nothing, but you know you talk to a lot of people that are losing jobs left and right, and you just worry that that could happen to anyone at any moment. Lunchbox. I am grateful for the invention of the lottery because it allows me to dream big and imagine my life when I hit the lottery and become super rich and what I'm going to do. and what keeps me up at night is my kid in the middle of the night yelling, Dadda! Dadda! My blanket! My blanket! Or I need a hug! That keeps me up at night because it's 3.30 in the morning and they're yelling,
Starting point is 00:06:16 Dadda. They literally. He literally keeps me up at night. I do that same thing with Caitlin, though. Blanket! Mama! Blanket! Carrie, thank you for calling. Are you satisfied with those answers? I am, and yes. It just... Yep, it's great. just listen about the kids because I have two kids myself. So the literal keeping you up in night and then also, you know, just thinking about keeping you up a night just does. And yeah, it's all big, exciting, exciting things for you guys.
Starting point is 00:06:46 So thanks for having me on the show. You guys are awesome. Thanks, Carrie. Have a good day. You too. We're so adult now. I know. I just thought about that.
Starting point is 00:06:53 We are. And it's a change that I've had to embrace because for most of my career, I was the youngest to do it. I was 22, 23 doing mornings in a big market and syndicated myself. And I was like, oh, look at this. I'm an adult. I'm a grown man. You are. You know, don't make me go full of Gundy on you.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Yeah, we're getting there. I'm getting to that part of my life a little later than some people. But I think a little earlier I was doing other parts of my life. Sure. With some people. So we're all just figuring it out the best way we can. All right, here we go. Open the mail bag.
Starting point is 00:07:27 You send an email and we read it all the air. It's something we call. Bobby's Mailbag. Yeah. Hey, Bobby Bones. I'm writing to you because my girlfriend likes to wear this old Alan Jackson t-shirt from the 90s to bed sometimes.
Starting point is 00:07:41 You know, I never thought I think about it. And don't get me wrong. I love Alan Jackson. Until I found out that it was a ex-boyfriend's t-shirt that she took from him before they broke up. Okay. Now, I know they had an amicable breakup, but I told her, I don't want her wearing his shirt anymore,
Starting point is 00:07:57 and she refuses to get rid of it. She said she only wears it because it's so comfortable, and she likes the shirt. I said, hey, if you're going to wear it, I won't sleep next to you anymore. Do you think I'm overreacting? Thought you could tell me. And you will settle the debate.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Signed, Kevin. This is a great email. This is the kind of juice that we wait for. We love these. Listen, this is what you do. You go and you try to find that exact shirt on eBay. Some old Alan Jackson big shirt, same size.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Maybe you find the same one, maybe you don't. And you give it to her and you go, hey, listen, I was wrong to say, hey, just get rid of that shirt. It makes me uncomfortable because it was from your ex-boyfriend and it just does. It makes me uncomfortable. Then you say, hey, I got you this as a gesture because I am asking you to get rid of it,
Starting point is 00:08:47 but I have you another one. And then that's, I feel, a transition that makes her not lose a battle and also gets her a nice comfortable shirt. That's what I would suggest. But she has to lose the shirt. Oh, yeah. Like that's not a thing.
Starting point is 00:09:00 allow that. You? I think you communicate about it. When you wear that shirt, it makes me feel and then share with her how you feel. And then maybe the story that you tell yourself even in your head is, whether it's true or not, oh my gosh, she must still be hung up on her boyfriend. And, you know, then that's the story you tell herself, yourself. And if she can't respect that, then I don't know. I'm assuming she already knows that. Because if he's brought it up, She has to know why he brought it up. Okay. I'd say you do all that in a respectful way,
Starting point is 00:09:32 exactly what you're saying, but you also give a gift to kind of lighten the mood. But here's my thing. When you do sit down and share that, her response is very important. Yeah, and her response was, I'm not losing the shirts. That's already happened.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Okay. Well, I didn't know how fairly he presented his feelings. Oh, probably unfair. Because don't act like guys just... Take it off! Yeah. Or like, I don't like you wearing that shirt. But when you sit down and give her your honest feelings,
Starting point is 00:09:54 why? When you do that, it makes me feel blah, blah, blah. And this is the story. I tell myself, like, that's a great communication tip for anything that's going on. And then if she still doesn't understand your feelings and doesn't because she cares about you, want to make you feel better, then I think then you question overall where you're going. You're jumping off the ledge. Well, they're not married.
Starting point is 00:10:16 You go to her and do what Amy said in a nice way, but you also give her a new shirt. It just makes it much easier for her to be like, okay. Because, again, she probably has some pride about it too. who doesn't want to lose the fight. You know how you dig in? Mm-hmm. No, I mean you. You know how you dig in?
Starting point is 00:10:32 At times, yes, I know. Right. But I just think that this is a great way to see how she would respond. But we love Alan Jackson, so we'll take that shirt. If you're going to mail it up here. The original. But she can't keep the shirt, right? No.
Starting point is 00:10:46 No. Definitely not. There you go. Thank you for your email. Morgan, if they want to reach out to us, what happens? They just email mailbag at bobbybones.com. Thank you very much. Close it up. We've got your email.

To me, this is luxury. This is the first car I've had that's been made in the 21st century. What the community has done, what Tanner has done, he's gone far beyond a call of duty. It means a lot to me that people would do this. Come on, that's awesome. Number three. A guy in North Carolina raised a bunch of money for charity by running 43 miles on his 43rd birthday. Wow.

It's time for the good news. With Bobby. Tell me something good. A guy rescued an older woman who had wandered away from her home in the snow and she had fallen and crawled into an old car of his to get warm. So one of his neighbors said, hey, I think somebody crawled into your old car that you keep beside the house. And it's like there's no way we're in the middle of a snowstorm. What are you talking about? So he goes out there and he opens the door and he sees an old lady in there going, this is the only place I could get to. She's,
Starting point is 00:14:02 I'm cold. I'm scared. Can you please help me? So he rushed inside, got a bunch of blankets to wrap her up, warmed her up, and then took her over to reunite with her family. She said he almost never uses that car so he leaves it unlocked. And again, had his neighbor not seen what looked like somebody crawling in the snow and then him going out to save her, she would have just been in there for who knows how long. It's amazing. It's not a crazy. It's not a crazy story that she was even found. Yeah. That's what it's all about right there.

Starting point is 00:18:13 Amy, when you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? Oh, probably a veterinarian and then a news anchor. Both, huh? Well, yeah, veterinarian is early on when I was like a little little kid. And then high school, like for career day, I went to the local news station.
Starting point is 00:18:28 I've never heard you once say you wanted to be a news anchor. Oh, yeah. Remember, I was obsessed with Judy DiMaggio. And so much so later, when I did have a career in sales, she came into the place where I worked. And I had her sign something unofficially. Like I was like, we're going to need your signature right here for this. She was a local news person.
Starting point is 00:18:44 And I thought I wanted to do that, but didn't even major her in that in college. I moved on. Eddie, what did you want to be when you grew up? Rockstar. 100%. Lunchbox? Anything famous.
Starting point is 00:18:54 I was going to be on the real world, then it was going to take off, but really army, because I liked camouflage. Didn't you at one point, this is the long-lost story of lunchbox? He claims he almost got a call back for real world. Oh, no, I did.
Starting point is 00:19:06 I went and tried out. I drove from San Antonio, Texas to College Station, Texas, and tried out at the, what's that called, the Dixie Chicken, Amy? That is what's called the Dixie Chicken. Yeah, I tried out there, and I drove back to San Antonio and I had a night class economics.
Starting point is 00:19:19 I was like, I might as well go to class. And I got home that night and there was a call from 3-2-3. And I asked my roommate, I said, hey, who called you from 3-2-3? I don't know that number. Ask my other roommate. Who called you from 3-2-3? Don't know who that is. Look it up, L.A.
Starting point is 00:19:34 They were calling me back. They wanted me back. But they had to call you again. They wouldn't just call Watson. No, that was it. They moved on. It was over. That was my shot.
Starting point is 00:19:43 And what I learned is when you go audition for things, don't go to class. And why didn't they call my cell phone? I had a cell phone. I put my cell phone number down. but they called the house phone back when those were a thing. And they didn't leave a voicemail. And that was it. And I missed my shot.
Starting point is 00:19:57 It was very, I was so crushed. We don't know if they're really offering you a spot. But they wanted to at least re-interview me like, hey, bring him back. Like this dude's good. Great. Bam. Well,
Starting point is 00:20:08 I'd like to share a story now that I've just learned. Did you know scuba Steve was offered a spot on the real world officially? What? Back in the day? Did you know that? No. Like on the real world, real world? Scoot it.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Yes. On the actual real world. So this was in 2007 when the internet was kind of popping. Lunchboxes put his hand on his head. He is now distraught. Go ahead. And the sad part is, I'll preface this. I had to turn it down.
Starting point is 00:20:30 So they did an... What the heck do you mean you had to turn it down? If you're applying for real world, why would you ever turn it down? It was for love. Go ahead. So what had happened was they did an online submission for their last castmate on real world Hollywood, which I've always wanted to be on some sort of reality television show at that point in time my life. So we did this huge campaign.
Starting point is 00:20:49 I was in a band, as we talked about before, and every show we promote to vote for me to the audience. I promoted on MySpace, like heavily. I got all kinds of people to vote for me, and I got to the top, and it was between me and another guy. They chose me. But at the same time, though, I was going out after this one girl
Starting point is 00:21:05 who became my ex-wife. And she gave me the ultimatum. Like, hey, you can either go this whole reality route. I'm out, or you choose me. I unfortunately chose her. I turned down real world. they went with this other guy from Daytona Beach, Florida, and he ended up not doing really well on the show.
Starting point is 00:21:24 But I turned it down for love, which was an awful mistake because I would have loved to be in a real world. Scooby Steve was offered a spot on the real world. That is the worst news I've ever heard in my life. Oh my God. Like it makes me sick because I don't know how scuba Steve is more interesting than me. I'm way more interesting. Especially that time of my life, I was the coolest kid on the block.
Starting point is 00:21:46 I was in a rock band. I had a lot to offer. The fact that he turned it down. for a chick. Like, people that go on the real world are so stupid when they go on with a girlfriend or boyfriend back home. Like, it's really going to work. You are there to party and to hook up. And you, I can't believe you turn it down for a chick.
Starting point is 00:22:02 How dumb. Like, why would you go through the whole process if you have a girlfriend and you're going to turn it down because of her? Well, I met her through that process when I was in the band. She was a bartender. One of the bars. So you only knew her for like a couple months? A couple weeks, actually. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Oh, my guys. Come on. How stupid can you be to turn something? down that you've known for someone for two weeks. It was pretty stupid. I admit it. It was a dumb choice because obviously she's my ex-wife. She cheated on me. So it was a horrible decision to have gone with her versus the real world.
Starting point is 00:22:29 I didn't know Scoobes-Div was married twice. Me neither. When he said F's wife a second ago, I caught her cheat on me on Ashley Madison. Hold on. Wait, what? I mean, I'm sorry. Scoo Steve has so many interesting stories. It's always, it's like we're unwinding this most interesting man in radio.
Starting point is 00:22:45 And that's why I got offered a spot in the real world. I'm starting to believe it. Do you talk about that story? When it happened, yeah, because I was in San Francisco on the radio. It was like a whole- Don't share too much. I want to save it. Yeah, it was a whole month play out.
Starting point is 00:22:56 Like, we just did a bunch of things with it, yeah. That's how I found my new wife, too, was through that process. Through Ashley Madison? Was she sitting on her again? No, no. Scoob and Steve, our executive producer, who comes on about once every couple days, but always with just like the perfect nugget.
Starting point is 00:23:10 And today it was that he turned down real world. And I knew it would drive lunchbox crazy because that's been his biggest goal in life. My biggest goal in life since I was like 12 years old. I'd watch Real World, Miami, Boston, San Francisco, and I was like, I'm going to be on that show, or road rules. And it just never happened. And that means you could be on the challenge, Scuba. I know.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Trust me, I'm killing myself about it too right now. You could be going for millions of dollars in these competitions. Instead, you turn it down for a girl you knew for two weeks. And Hollywood was a terrible season anyway, so. Do you want to get Scoobah's autograph before I play song? No. Okay. Yeah, most kids love riddles,
Starting point is 00:23:45 but what if we ask the adults in the room these kids riddles? Let's play Riddle me this. Amy, Lunchbox, Eddie, I will give you a kid's riddle. All you have to do is get it. You'll have 20 seconds after I finish the second reading of it, okay?
Starting point is 00:24:03 For example, you guys can yell this one out. What gets wetter, the more it dries. Tao. Right. Wow. Well, that's an old one. You've never heard that one? No, and I'm going to be terrible at this.
Starting point is 00:24:15 Okay. Amy, you're up first. Amy, what goes up but never comes back down? What goes up but never comes back down? Riddle me this. I feel like eventually it cycles itself back down again, but I'm just going to go with the first thing that popped in my head, which was precipitate.
Starting point is 00:24:41 I don't know. Vaporation. Weird noise. Because like the thin evaporates, but then it comes back down. And it's like a cycle. Time? The answer is?
Starting point is 00:24:54 What goes up and never comes down? Evaporation. The answer is age, your age. Oh, or that. It's not going to be so on the nose and scientific. It's a riddle. Man, sometimes I'm just not in the right head space. I know.
Starting point is 00:25:12 It's tough. Why don't you get on one track, though? I know. It's hard to leave because age. That's so true. All right. Amy, you've been eliminated. Okay, yeah, goodbye. Oh, I've been boned, right? No, not on this one. That's this game. That's easy, true.

Starting point is 00:29:49 What two things can you never eat for breakfast? Amy! Legend dinner. Correct. We have the lucky little champion for today. Here's Amy's pile of stories. So a survey was done, and two-thirds of parents say that they rely on Google when they help their kids with homework. So pretty much, no Google, no healthy.
Starting point is 00:30:19 How do you feel about that? 100%. I rely on Google. YouTube videos really breaking it down for me in order to help my kids with their homework. You? Yeah, no, no. Without Google? I mean, without Google, how do we even settle debates?
Starting point is 00:30:33 15 years ago. That's true. You'd be having dinner with a friend. You'd argue, no, no, no. Columbus was in 1492. No, it's 1493. I swear. Okay.
Starting point is 00:30:42 Well, what do we do now? We had the encyclopedia. Yeah, unless you could go get a book. If you were out about, you were just, you know, up poop creek without a paddle. That's right. All right. All right. The survey also found the top ways parents get out of helping their kids with homework,
Starting point is 00:30:56 because I know parents are going to keep these in their back pocket. You can ask the partner in your life for help instead. come home late so you miss homework time. Be busy doing laundry or other chores instead claiming to be too tired or emergency run. We got to go to the grocery store. We're out of milk. A lot of great parenting techniques. Yeah, good job, guys. I did read a thing too where the same kind of story where they said like most dads will fake sleeping when the baby's crying.
Starting point is 00:31:23 So they don't have to go either change the diaper or tend to the baby. Yeah. It's like, wait, right. They're like, close their eyes. Done it. I'm sleeping. Of course you have. We're not surprised. What else?
Starting point is 00:31:33 So I have the best country karaoke songs. Chattahoochee. Is it on there? No, it is not. Look a dumb list. Not in the top five. So, yeah, people we want to know. And number five, Amarillo by Morning, George Strait.
Starting point is 00:31:45 It's a great song, but is it the best karaoke song? Up from San Antonio. According to this survey. You're right, Eddie. You just got me. Everything that I got. All right. In a number four, need you now, Lady A.
Starting point is 00:31:59 Oh, tough one to sing. need to have two people doing it. Like, I guess a good duet country song. And number three, Shania Twain, man, I feel like a woman. It's a fun one. And number two, Carrie Underwood, before he cheats. Ooh, get out of it. People are having some pretty big goals on that karaoke stage,
Starting point is 00:32:22 trying to sing like Carrie or Lady A. And? And a number one, Garth Brooks' Friends in Low Places. The best song, right? It's the one, for sure. It's, like, fun. Unless you can really, really sing karaoke, like, do the most fun song possible.
Starting point is 00:32:34 That's a good one. All right, I'm in. What else? So workout pictures if you post them, apparently they help your followers. Like if you run a 10K and you put it up or you're doing a CrossFit Wad workout and you put it up, people that follow you on social media will feel bad about themselves for not running a 10K. So it gets them moving. I at times feel inspired when I see someone working out in the picture.
Starting point is 00:32:58 I'm like, oh, dang. That does affect me a bit. Yeah. Like I'll see Seacrest sometimes on that. He's got like some sort of a rowing. thing he stands on. I'm like, I got you to work out. I'm always one step behind secret. Yeah, I guess as long as it's part of you wanting to feel good and you know that working out will get you there. But like, I feel like it's, it's so a lot of these before and
Starting point is 00:33:18 afters, depending on where you are in your journey can be harmful. Because if someone's like, it's not before and after. It's just a picture of you working out. Okay. Just you doing the thing. Gotcha. Okay. We almost got woke Amy. I stopped it. I know. I plugged the hole. Thank you. Because I want to be sensitive to the fact that some people when they see that stuff online and actually can be really damaging. No, it's great for me. If I just see somebody working out, like, hey, I'm just in the gym today. I'm like, that's great.
Starting point is 00:33:41 They actually carved out an hour of their day. Why can't I? It's not like every hour of my day is the most important hour. I need to do a little me time. Yeah. Like a little time for me to make myself better either physically or mentally. Good job. Plugged up that hole.
Starting point is 00:33:55 That's the close one. Well, Amy was ready to come through. Sorry. All right, that's it? Yes, I'm Amy. That's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time.
Starting point is 00:34:05 for the good news. With producer Eddie. Tell me something good. Well, this is pretty cool because it's from my neck of the woods in South Texas. There's a family hanging out in their house in Santa Rosa, Texas, and they realize there's a fire, and it just gets out of control real quick. So everyone tries to get out of the house as fast as they can. They make it outside, and then quickly they realize, oh, crap, we forgot Grandma.
Starting point is 00:34:27 Grandma's still in the house. How do you forget, Grandma? They did. I mean, I'm sure they're Russian bones, you know? So they said, somebody's got to go back in and get Grandma. So 14-year-old. son Bradley Garza. He gets a shirt to cover his face from the smoke and he says, I'm going in. He gets in the house and he just searches everywhere. He says, it's hard to see, but he found
Starting point is 00:34:43 grandma, pulls her out to safety. Everybody is okay. Wow. I wonder if it was like home alone with like, Kevin. Grandma! Grandma! How do you forget Grandma though? I don't know, man. That's good. He saved her. Yeah. Shout out. But dang, Grandma's who you go for first. I know, but Grandma, she got out safe. That's what it's all about.

Starting point is 00:38:45 Morning. We want to give a shout-out to our mom, Aubrey off out. We're the best in the whole world. We love the show and can never stop listening to it. One of our favorite parts is Amy in the morning
Starting point is 00:38:55 Corning. We repeat it to everyone. You! Shout out to Rimendo. And Eddie the Dad. Lunchbox. Because all he does is win, win, win. We also love telling me something good.
Starting point is 00:39:10 That's amazing. That all song and dance plan. Sign these girls up with something. That's pretty good. R.I. and Piper, shout out to you guys. That's pretty cool. You love the morning corny. Let's do it now.
Starting point is 00:39:21 Here we go. The morning corny. Why didn't the green pepper practice archery? Why didn't the green pepper practice archery? Because it didn't have a narrow. Oh, nice. I like that. That's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:39:40 That was the morning corny. Amy, did you ever have a boyfriend back in the day? Or heck, maybe your husband does this now. They just wants to fight if something goes wrong. No, I've never dated Fight Guy. I mean, maybe when I was 16, one of the guys, yeah, but I don't even know if he was Fight Guy or just being a teenage kid. But nobody in my life currently is Fight Guy.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Like you never been at a bar and somebody steps on somebody's shoe and the next thing you know it's like, come on. No, and I'm not attracted to fight guy. Like, I want you to be able to control yourself. They say men with a fragile sense of masculinity are way more likely to act aggressively to prove their manliness. That makes sense. So the guy that always wants to fight is fighting to prove that he's a man.
Starting point is 00:40:27 And the guy that doesn't need to fight is a big man. That's me. It's a big man. I'm not going to fight at all. The guy that runs away. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The guy that cries and grabs another man, to stand in front of him, that's the guy you want to be with.
Starting point is 00:40:41 Lunchbox, are you fight guy? I'm not fight guy, but I think women like fight guy. Like, if your woman is in trouble, they want to see you step up and fight. They want to see someone that is brave. And I mean, if we need to, we can fight, but I mean, no one really wants to fight me because they know. I think there's a difference in if somebody's hurting your girl. No, no, no. Let's say some guy knocks your girl's drink out of the hand and doesn't say sorry or excuse.
Starting point is 00:41:07 me, you got to say something to the guy or else your girl's going to look at you bad and you got to let your girl know, hey, I'm not going to let people treat you like that. If you're at a bar and a guy accidentally bumps into your wife and knocks her drink out of her hand and keeps walking, what do you do? You grab them and say, hey, you're going to come back and apologize
Starting point is 00:41:22 or we're going to have a problem. Okay. I'm not touching anybody. You grab them? Yep. Where do you grab them? Grab them by the shoulder, the arm, whatever. You just, hey, excuse me, you just knocked the drink out of her hand and you're going to go back and apologize. And they're going to I'm not saying that you shouldn't say, hey, would you mind apologizing?
Starting point is 00:41:39 But lunchbox can't grab him to anybody. Yeah, yeah. I mean, you're already picturing that the guy's gone. Like, he's already walked away and lunchbox is going to get out of his way and go grab him. Say, come back and apologize to her. And then also, since this is radio and some people might not know exactly what lunchbox looks like. I just like to clarify that a second ago, lunchbox said, well, you know, people see me. They know.
Starting point is 00:41:58 Like, they know what? Like, they're not going to fight him because of what they see. But lunchbox isn't as big as he sounds. He's like a, like a skinny, he's a twig. He's a white guy with like, shaggy hair. Like, it's not what you're expecting.
Starting point is 00:42:15 Because I know some people picture like big, big guy. He's got a big voice. He's got a big guy. Where would you rank us on the show with all the guys here on the show? Who you'd want to fight least, like, who's probably the toughest in a fight to the person that's the wimpiest. Okay, I don't want to fight Scream with Steve. So he's first.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Yes. Okay, go ahead. Then I don't want to fight Ray because he's scrappy. I think and like, well, I don't know. He works out all the time. Then I don't want to fight Bobby. Then I don't want to fight Mike D.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Oh, Mike D. Really? Amy, you have lost your darn mind. What's wrong with you? You've lost your darn mind. Then I don't want to fight Eddie. Oh, wow. And then I don't want to fight lunchbox.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Actually, it sounds like you do want to fight lunchbox. Wait, I thought that that was the water. It is, but I'm saying, he's the one. If you had to pick, you'd fight him. him first. Oh, yes. So that's what I mean. Yeah. Like, it's like, wow. Yeah. I probably my best odds are against him. You need to put some respect on my name. Okay. Okay. How does that make you feel lunchbox? I mean, listen, I'm not worried about her. Girls like her. That's the one on. I'm not what I'm
Starting point is 00:43:24 worried about. You know what I'm saying? No. What is he saying? When's the last time you've been in a fight, lunchbox? Oh, man. It's been a long time. Been a long time. But there's been times at the bar when it gets real close and they're like, oh, you know what, this's probably a bad idea. And they back down. Oh, they back down. You don't.
Starting point is 00:43:41 Yeah. Or someone defuses the situation, steps in between, things like that. But that's the problem. When you're a celebrity and you go out to bars, some people don't want to pick at you
Starting point is 00:43:49 just because you're a celebrity. Do you remember when Morgan number two was boxing as she said she'd box lunch box? Yes. And he said no. He said he wasn't. He wouldn't do it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:59 Correct. Yeah, yeah. Still won't do it. Why? Because she's a woman. That's true I mean That's true
Starting point is 00:44:07 Who would you rather fight Morgan number two or lunchbox Oh lunchbox Let's set it up Let's go Oh so you'll fight me You'll fight Amy but not Morgan Yeah let's talk to big game
Starting point is 00:44:19 Let's do it Oh boy You can use a talk a big game at lunchbox Right No she didn't Also I'm a woman Hey But you're talking trash
Starting point is 00:44:27 Let's go Let's go All right Last week, Lunchbox went into a local sub shop and paid for everyone's meal in hopes that someone would contact the news. This is all rooted in that Darius Rucker story, where Darius went into an IHop, had dinner, paid for everybody's meal, tip the wait staff, made the news. So Lunchbox got jealous. I do like that he paid for everybody's meal, though, right? Let's not let it be lost, that he did go in and pay for everyone's meal, eight people.
Starting point is 00:44:55 Yeah, that's a lot of money. But then he started yelling, hey, tweet this, call the news. Here's a clip. Remember, if you hit up the news, he tweeted out, Lunchbox about my lunch, let him know I'm just a great guy. Any news, CNN, Fox News, anybody. Yeah. Remember, Lunchbox, L-U-N-C-H-B-O-X, let everybody know. Tell the news.
Starting point is 00:45:15 So, Lunchbox waited. The news never picked it up, right, Lunchbox? No, no one ever called. There wasn't any single tweet, not a news story. Not even on the bottom line when you watch the 10 o'clock news. Like, you know how they have news on the bottom? Nothing. So he decides to call himself and tip off the news as his character.
Starting point is 00:45:36 What's the character's name? Nico Jackson. Yes. And so Nico Jackson just happened to be in line at the sub shop when this lunchbox fella came in and bought for everybody. Why does he sound like that creepy old man from... Family guy? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:49 Where he's like, oh, the good Lord just sent me a conversation started. Lunchbox, what? The inspiration for Nico Jackson is what? This character you do. This was just... I really just was calling the prank call my dad, and I don't very good at voices. And so I had to kind of manipulate my mouth, and this came out, and I was like, Nico Jackson. And we had just had Nico Moon in.
Starting point is 00:46:10 I was like that name, Nico. We'll go with Nico Jackson. Okay, here is Lunchbox calling the news. Here you go. News, yes, this is... Oh, yes, this is Nico Jackson. And I got to tell you, I got a great story for you over there at the news station. So I was at the sub shop the other day, and this fine young gentleman comes in, and this guy starts yelling,
Starting point is 00:46:37 hey, guys, I'm lunchboxed. And he ended up paying for everybody's sub that was in line. Got it? Yes, and he paid for all of our subs, and he said, oh, if we want to contact the news, and I think you should do a story on the young man. Okay. Sir, that sounds really nice of him. That sounds like a great gesture to go in and do a little pay it forward.
Starting point is 00:46:59 if you will, but is that all you were calling in for? I mean, I got a foot-long meatball sub and I even got a cookie because this lunchbox guy was buying. I said, hey, might as well get a cookie. Okay. All right. That is interesting. Well, I will jot this down and I'm glad that you got a free sub out of it and even a free cookie. And it sounds like that was a great afternoon for you.
Starting point is 00:47:22 It really was. It was really good. Now, I thought it would be cool on the news, but I guess you're saying no. Not today. But in lunchbox, a big celebrity, he said he was on the radio. And so I figured that means he's big time. You know, there's some bigger people on the radio, I think. I've not personally heard of him.
Starting point is 00:47:43 I can ask around the newsroom, but that's not one that I've personally heard. Oh, okay. Well, all right, thank you. All right. Thank you for calling. All right. Bye-bye. Wow.
Starting point is 00:47:54 Did that hurt? So many levels that had to hurt. It hurt on a lot of levels. like first of all they didn't think your story is big enough right like a little bit you're like dang I thought this was my shot here oh yes I thought she'd be like oh yes we need something positive you know we always have negative news on the story maybe we'll have something positive she wouldn't even like she didn't even want to entertain it
Starting point is 00:48:14 and then oh don't even go there don't go there like rehearing her say that I was just like that's like a dagger in the heart like she could have just said oh yeah he's a great guy. No, instead, she goes, there's bigger ones because I've never heard. Oh, my God. But it's a dagger in the heart. Why? Because Lunchbox thinks that he's the biggest thing around, right? Sure. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Like, how does she like, is she living in a cave? She's never heard of me. Come on. You should have asked her who her favorites are. She's just straight Bobby Bones. Let me tell you. At that point when she said, I never heard of a odd to ask about the newsroom, I was just ready to get out of there. I was like, I'm done. Was that here in town?
Starting point is 00:48:54 It was a local one. Oh, no. Oh, no, never heard of them. Got them. Ow. Well, you're not going to make the news. Sorry about that, bud. Yeah, I'm not going to make the news, so who do I ask to be getting reimbursed for that meal?
Starting point is 00:49:13 You can ask everybody, but nobody can't reimburse you for it. That's funny. All right. Nico Jackson, everybody. Yeah, Nico Jackson. Have a great day. It's time for the good news. With Amy. So back in 1973, this woman that lives in San Antonio, Texas, was up in Chicago visiting her grandmother.
Starting point is 00:49:37 When she was loading up her three kids to get in the car, her wedding ring flew off her hand and fell into the snow. Once it thawed, they did a search for it. They weren't able to find it a few weeks later. And yeah, she's gone 48 years without that wedding band. But it has been found. And it was returned to her last weekend. and she got to open it up on Valentine's Day. Where'd they end up finding it?
Starting point is 00:50:03 Social media, like, I guess it got put out there and then the Chicago Historic Society, they helped, and I don't know, somehow that ring had been found and put somewhere and they were able to reunite it with her. I just wonder if it was in the same place where she lost it or if it had been kicked around a bit. Amy lost her ring once at her own house for a whole winter. Yeah, my husband was in Afghanistan,
Starting point is 00:50:23 and we were driving to Texas, me and my mom, for the winter. So my mom said, well, let's just get in the car. We got to hit the road and you can find it in the spring. So, yeah, once the snow had melted and I was back, I rented a metal detector and I found it. Amazing. Crazy, huh? It's pretty cool. That's what it's all about.

Starting point is 00:52:46 Then he finds out that the friend is her ex-boyfriend.

Yeah, I don't think it was like, I mean, I think that's how it came up as like not a big deal, but just FYI we used to date. And also, what's the dating history?
Starting point is 00:53:21 Was it serious dating or did they go out a few times? I would have no problem with it as long as it was told to me up front. Hey, Trent's dog who I was a part of that dog's life I need to take care of for a couple days. Is that okay? Ooh, that'd still be tough.
Starting point is 00:53:38 I'll be honest. I'll be honest. I'm trying to act like I'm too, I don't know about that. I know. My friend is trying to be like super cool about it too. I was trying to be super cool. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:47 I don't know that that's the best idea. I've talked myself out of what I should do and what I feel like I would do. I know. My husband and I were both like, oh, no. I don't think I could take. I don't think I, I don't think I would be okay with her continuing. Obviously, she's already doing it, but like, hey, from here on out, could we not pet sit your ex's dog? Yes, that's the side that I'm going to lean. I don't think it's good for that relationship. Unless they, her ex has absolutely nowhere to go with it and she talks about it. It says, hey, listen, if nobody takes his dog, it's going to be hungry. Let's still, it's like, go, go to walk, wags for a walk, or whatever the dog app is that watches your dog. Yeah, that's tough.
Starting point is 00:54:29 I'm on your side. I'm shallow. Well, I don't know that for sure that I have a side. I was just crazy that you would handle it. That's all of our sides. If you cannot do it, you shouldn't do it. And it's weird that she didn't say, hey, I'm pet sitting my ex-boyfriend's dog. I honestly don't think she was keeping it from him, but she just, she is clearly also now it opens up a conversation of, oh, you're still friends with this person.
Starting point is 00:54:49 because two to three months is still a fairly new relationship, but he definitely could see himself with her forever. So he just was curious. Okay, Mr. Commitment. Now I'm worried about that. What? Let her know two months in. He's like, I'm with you forever.
Starting point is 00:55:05 My end statement is not a good situation. Try to get somebody else to watch the dog. But like, so how does he bring it up? You say, I'm not comfortable with you watching your ex-boyfriend's dog. That's weird to me. Right. Sometimes you're just needy. And then I guess he'll find out real quick where she stands.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Because either she's going to be like, okay, I respect that. I won't do it anymore. But if she's like, no, I want to care for this dog, then, ooh. That means she wants to care for that last dog. Oh, the real dog. All right, there it is. It's Bobby Bones, world-class advice giver. Let's talk to Robin in Little Rock, Arkansas.
Starting point is 00:55:43 Hey, Robin, how are you? Hey, I'm good. How are y'all? I'm doing pretty good. I'm super pumped you on the phone. play a little game here where I'm going to read you these love speeches from movies. Okay, so I'm going to read a real love dialogue.
Starting point is 00:55:57 And so we're going to have Eddie play against you. Okay. You guys guess which movie this is from. Oh, fun. Okay. Amy, I let you play, but you sent these to me. Oh, yeah. I know them all.
Starting point is 00:56:08 I was wondering what I was playing. She was like, I'm ready to play. But I was like, no, Amy actually sent me these to go, hey. I'm going to be good at this. And she was going to totally play and win too. I could see in her eyes. Here's famous love scenes or speeches from movies. Alright. Okay, so Robin, do you understand I'm gonna just read it to you?
Starting point is 00:56:26 You gotta tell me what movie it's from? Okay, yeah. Okay, let's play the game. Eddie, write your answer down, okay? You got it. Number one. So it's not gonna be easy. It's gonna be really hard. We're gonna have to work at this every day. But I wanna do that because I want you.
Starting point is 00:56:43 I want all of you forever. You and me every day. It's tough. It's pretty generic. You read that. really well. Well, did okay. Yeah. Am I supposed to guess now? Yeah, go ahead, Robin. Can you name that? Okay, the notebook. Eddie, what did you write down? I have Ryan Gosling from the notebook saying that. You guys are both right. Wow.
Starting point is 00:57:05 Good job. Nice job, guys. Thank you. Okay. Number two. What is it you want, Mary? What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down. Hey, that's a pretty good idea. I'll give you the moon, Mary. Robin, do you know that one? I know. I know. I know it. Five seconds?
Starting point is 00:57:32 It's a wonderful life. Correct. Eddie? Robin's good. It's George Bailey from It's A Wonderful Life. Wow. Good. All right. All right. I'm going to have to give Robin like five seconds for now on. Okay. Here we go. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:46 If you can promise me anything, promise me that whenever you're sad or unsure or you lose complete faith, that you'll try to see yourself through my eyes. What? Ooh, ooh, ooh. I have five seconds. Uh, uh, uh, no idea. She goes with no idea. Eddie?
Starting point is 00:58:07 Hope floats. Hope floats. Uh, here, let me actually play the clip for you guys here. If you can promise me anything, promise me that whenever you're sad or unsure or you lose complete faith, that you'll try and see yourself through my eyes. Does that do anything for you? No, no, still nothing. It's a PSI.
Starting point is 00:58:27 P.S. I love you. No. Are you yelling at me, Robin? She says no to you. No, it's not. All right, Robin, you're ready for number four? Yes. Okay, here we go.
Starting point is 00:58:39 I guarantee they'll be tough times. I guarantee that at some point, one or both of us is going to want to get out. But I also guarantee that if I don't ask you to be mine, I'll regret it for the rest of my life because I know in my heart, You're the only one for me. That's not, um...
Starting point is 00:58:59 No, it's not a walk to remember. Need an answer on that one? Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. Pretty woman. You are... Eddie. It's so close. Really? I mean, Robin, you almost got it.
Starting point is 00:59:15 Eddie? I have wedding crashers. No, it's runaway bride, Julia Roberts. Same actress. Yeah, same actress. Great. I guarantee that we'll have tough times. and I guarantee that at some point
Starting point is 00:59:29 one or both of us will want to get out. But I also guarantee that if I don't ask you to be mine, I'll regret it for the rest of my life because I know in my heart you're the only one for me. That's so good. That's good acting right there.
Starting point is 00:59:51 Man. That's good acting for sure. That chills. Wow. Wow. Okay, here we go. Final one. All right.
Starting point is 00:59:57 That's what people do. They leap and hope to God they can fly. Because otherwise, we just drop like a rock, wondering the whole way down, why the heck did I jump? But here I am. Sarah falling. And there's only one person that makes me feel like I can fly.
Starting point is 01:00:15 That's you. I know. I think it's, well, oh gosh. Three. Is it hitch? She says hitch, Eddie. I wrote down forgetting Sarah, Marshall because you said Sarah. Oh. Well, one of you is right? Oh, that's it then. What?
Starting point is 01:00:33 Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Forgetting Sarah Marshall is wrong. It is Hitch. Robin is the winner. Robin. There she is. Wow. Wow, Robin, nice job. Yeah, look at you.

Bobby, I just wanted to tell you that I love your bulldog. I have a bulldog, too. He's 14, and his name is Flash.
Starting point is 01:01:06 He's 14? Yeah. Let me ask you this again. He's 14 years old? He's 14. He just turned 14. As a bulldog, that is really, really old and good for you for taking care of him, keeping alive that long. I know, I know. We thought we were going to lose him back in October, but he rallied, and so now we're just taking it day by day, but we're just grateful for every day that, you know,

Starting point is 01:01:47 A man was mad because a couple months ago a tow truck company had towed his car, and he vowed revenge. So he went to the tow truck company and stole the tow truck. Oh. I imagine he didn't get far. No, they got a report, and then police pulled him over on the highway,
Starting point is 01:02:03 and he was like, yeah, I was mad. They took my car, so I took theirs. It's like when someone steals an ambulance or a cop car, like, how far do you really think you're going to get? Or a pizza truck? You know, it's like, the name Totinos is written on the side of the truck. All right, there you go. I'm Lunchbox.
Starting point is 01:02:18 That's your Bonehead Story of the Day. These boaters, they went out for the day, and people always want to see dolphins or whales or whales. Maybe a shark. You know if you're out in the ocean, right? This eight-foot shark circled this boat for 15 minutes. Oh my gosh. The mean one, the big great white shark.
Starting point is 01:02:35 Imagine you're out on the boat, it's a nice day, and then this shark is circling you for 15 minutes. That's what happened. And I don't think I've ever seen a shark except in an aquarium. Have you? No. I've never seen one like at the ocean. I think I'd be freaking out a little bit, though.
Starting point is 01:02:52 The eight-foot shark circled down for at 15 minutes. They took pictures, but I guess. you only circle when you're hungry. Yeah, for sure. If I also, if I was on that boat and I saw the article the other day about how the shark just jumped in and ate the boy. Well, pulled the boy. The dad jumped in on the shark and saved him. I know.
Starting point is 01:03:07 But still, tried to eat them. Thank you. We'll see you tomorrow. Bye, buddy. Remembering the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. This is the Bobby Bones show. All right. If you have ever dealt with a traditional home security company, you know the drill.
