It's happening, everybody.
Thank you so much for hanging out with us this morning.
Here is Andrew from California.
Morning studio.
I just wanted to get your advice, Bobby.
me and my girl are currently in a long-distance relationship,
and I know you and Caitlin were at that point,
but I just want some advice.
We're both young, we're both trying to live it up,
so because some advice would be great.
Thank you.
My advice, and it was the first ever long-distance relationship I'd ever done,
we just always had a plan next.
We weren't ever just living separately going,
I wonder when we'll see each other again.
Even if it was far away, we had a plan,
we were looking forward to when she would come here,
or I would go there.
But then again, we got hit with Corona pretty quick.
Because we dated for only a few months.
And then she was just kind of trapped here, which in the end was the greatest thing to ever happen to me.
Right.
So my only advice to you, something like your young guy, is just make sure that, you know, whenever you leave, you already have your next little spot planned.
Because you're looking forward to something always.
Otherwise, kind of just felt like you're floating.
Caitlin used to come to town and then she would get here and then start to get sad already because she knew she'd have to leave in a few days.
I was like, wait a minute.
Don't get sad until you're actually leaving.
Yeah, I do that.
Like, just be happy for a second.
Yeah.
And so, and then I'd take her to the airport and I would talk with it.
I was like, hey, there's no need to get sad.
You're going to come back.
We already have our next shirt planned.
Like, that's why it worked for us.
They're like, don't get sad.
It's not, you're coming back in three weeks or two weeks.
And then you're going to get stuck here.
And then you're going to live out of one single small suitcase for three months.
Yeah, that would be my advice there, Andrew.
Good luck.
It can work.
It's tough.
It can work, but there's also got to be a bit of a plan for how to end the long distance as well.
There's got to be an end to the means.
Let's do one more.
Here you go.
This is Heather in North Dakota.
Just wanted to find out if you had your song as a couple.
We have a few.
I mean, her and I haven't really talked about this on the level of just picking a song,
but I've made a list here.
The first time we kind of went somewhere together, and she knows every 90s country song,
everywhere to every 90s country song.
And so we were, Brooks and Dunn, Neon Moon had, oh, I know what was happening.
Eddie and I were practicing because we were playing with Brooks and Dunn.
And I was learning, making sure I knew every word of the song.
Because you feel like you do until you have to sing it with them.
And you're like, oh.
And then we just kind of say, that song reminds me of her because we just sang it for an entire weekend.
So that's not our song, but that's one.
Also, the Duolipa song, Don't Stop Now, reminds me of her when we first met.
Because I didn't even love this song, but she liked the song, and she went to the same church as Dua Lipa.
And so, I thought that was cool.
Yeah, that is cool.
And so that song was a big one.
Jesse and the Rippers Forever.
You serious?
Yeah.
Why?
Why this?
Because she used to play it all the time and be like, this is my song for you.
And she was kind of kidding, but not really.
And also, who doesn't love Full House?
True.
And Jesse's playing this at the wedding.
Forever.
There's a jam.
But fine, the one that I would say is our song,
not because we've picked it or had this conversation.
And this song, because she says that when she knew that I was the one for her,
I took her to a Matt Carney concert.
And we were in Oklahoma City because I surprised her by going to the Oklahoma City Thunder game.
And then Matt Carney was playing.
He's a friend of mine.
And so after the game, we went over and watched the back end
his show and hung out with him afterward. But he played this song at the very end of it. And she said
during this song is when she knew that I was the one. And it's nothing left to lose.
So, and then we listen to that song all the time too, because we know all the words to it. And that was a
real special time for us. And then in the song, too, he talks about moving to Nashville, you know,
and probably in her life, too, she's thinking like, oh my gosh, like I could live in Nashville.
Well, that whole song, too, is like, let's just go for it. Like, we got nothing to lose. Let's just go
get it. So yeah, and it's a jam too. Where were you in that, since you know where you were,
like the game and the concert, if that's when she had the moment of knowing, where were you at
that moment? Already knew. You knew too? Well, yeah, because I plan the whole, I'm not planning a
trip like that for somebody that I'm not berserk over. Yeah, and she said, I haven't seen it, and I'm like
going to ask her for it, that she took notes on her phone that night on how she felt because she didn't
want to let that kind of go by and she wanted to, I guess maybe
she gets mad at me later.
She can go check it.
Her little diary.
You have a song?
Not like your first dance at your wedding,
but like a song that you and your husband
when you first started being together
was like your song?
I mean, ours is anything.
When we first started dating,
he loves Texas country.
So, and Pat Green ended up being one of our songs.
But I would say anything, Jerry Jeff,
Pat Green, Robert O'Keene,
and even some other guys that aren't as known
as those Texas countries.
guys. So you have a whole format as your song? Even now. Yes. All the Texas country guys.
Anything with the red dirt in it is our song. No, but I will say like even Parker McCollum's song that's
out now when it comes on the radio, it instantly has that Texas country feel. And I think of him
already with that song. And he loves it. But there's not a song. Oh, but I can think of right now,
unless it's Pat Green crazy. But Eddie? You said not that. I think ours kind of came later. We had our
early ones, but I think Fix You now has
become our song because of just
the roller coaster ride that our
marriage has been ups, downs, ups, downs,
and we've always just kind of ended up
being there for each other. So when Fix You
comes on, we both just get really quiet and say
like, gosh, I love this song. Like, we'd add you
too. What station are you listening to or Fiction
on our playlist?
I was going to say, no, not the radio.
Because I'll listen to the alternative stuff too, but they never play
Fixu. No, they don't. It's always like hateful stuff now.
A lot of you guys ask for advice. We open up the mailbag to give you just that.
You send an email and we read it all the air. It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag.
Yeah.
Hey Bobby. I recently moved in with my girlfriend and moved all my stuff into a storage unit.
And we're going to save some things that we can both use. Now, she asked me to move into
the storage unit for at least a year, quote, just in case things didn't work out.
I was totally open to this idea at first.
I thought it was a smart play.
But now I've been thinking about it.
And suddenly I'm wondering, is this a red flag?
Is she telling me she's not really sure if she wants to be with me?
Is she playing it safe so she can kick me to the curb?
Or am I overthinking it?
Brad.
Well, first, I'll say you're overthinking it.
I would just say you're overthinking it.
She may have been saying that for him not to freak out more than her too.
You can't all.
She could say, hey, just in case it doesn't work out.
She could have been saying that for him.
Not just for her.
So I wouldn't draw any significant conclusions from that.
And who knows it may not work out.
If you both agreed, hey, we're going to see if those works out.
Give it a trial, run a living together.
So I would say not to freak out yet.
It's not a red flag.
If she's in a year, if she's going, hey, we're going to leave your stuff over there
because who knows what's going to happen next, then it's probably a red flag.
Those are my thoughts.
Amy?
Yeah, I think she's just looking out for you too and keeping all of your things.
Although my therapist has been talking to me a lot about red flags lately,
not necessarily in a relationship,
but just sometimes in life, things we do or something that's said to us
that might be like, huh, maybe I do need to look a little further into that.
And if it really is a concern, then you need to communicate that to her.
Ooh, communication. That's tough.
I know.
But if it's something you can't let go, just say, hey,
and try to use when you do bring it up, use eye language instead of you.
Like, when you said this, da-da-da-da, just say, hey, you know, I know we talked about this the other day,
and I started to think this or I started to feel this way after we talked about it,
but for her to not get on the defense.
I should work on that.
I go right to the you, you, you, you, you, you.
Now, I'm really working on eye language.
Mm, well, Brad, here's what we say collectively.
You're fine.
if it's bothering you that much, say something to her,
but this is not a sign of disaster.
Yeah.
We agree with that?
Yeah, because really, she could have meant nothing by it
other than protecting,
but you have created a possible story in your head
that's taking you the other direction.
The stories in our head are the ones that gets us
because they're normally not right.
We've got your email and we read it on the air.
Now it's about to close Bobby's mail back.
Morgan, what do they do if they're doing?
want to email us.

Financial stress is one of the things that we don't always talk about,
but it hits harder than we realize.
It's not just numbers in a bank account.
It's the anxiety that keeps you up at night.
It's the tension that it can create in relationships
and that constant feeling of, am I doing enough?
There are moments where it's overwhelming,
where no matter how hard you work,
you feel like you just can't quite get ahead.
And what you learn is that stress isn't just financial.
It's emotional.
That's why it's important to check in with yourself because struggling and struggling with
money doesn't mean you fail.
It means you might need support in a different way.
Therapy can help you unpack the stress, the pressure, even the beliefs that you've carried
about money for years.
And with better help, you can get matched with a licensed therapist who fits your needs.
Plus, if it's not the right fit, you can switch at any time.
You don't have to carry the weight alone.
When life feels overwhelming, therapy can help.

She took her headphones out so she wouldn't hear the game show music,
leaned her head over,

Except for her.
I don't really know that I know the title.

Eddie, she came in it.
She jumped out of her chair, did it
She made her bass stronger and threw her hand in the air.
Oh, man.
I've been heard this song in a while.
There she is.
And she won a scholarship.
Wow, congratulations.
You did.
I just told what the prize was.
Thank you.
All right, all right.
It's time for the good news.
With Bobby.
Tell me something good.
A grandpa from Minnesota has finally gotten his high school diploma.
More than 70 years after he left school.
Clifford Hanson just received it at 91 years old in a special graduation ceremony.
Wow.
His family was there to cheer him on as he got his honorary degree from Benson High School.
He dropped out in the eighth grade because his dad was sick and he had to save the
family farm. Oh, wow. That's so cool. Which he did, by the way. Yeah. And then he's 91. He told a nurse in the
senior living facility, he still wished he could have gotten it. So they made it happen. Did a little
learning, got it, had the whole ceremony. Pretty cool, huh? Super cool. Ninety-one years old. That's what it's all
about. That was tell me something good. People's biggest pet peeves with people they live with.
Okay, here are the top five. And then I actually asked Caitlin what her pet peeves are about me before I left this
morning. Number five, having people over to the house without a heads up. Number four, eating someone
else's food. Yeah, that's frustrating. I feel like I make a lot sometimes, and then my husband will
just eat it. And I'm like, well, that was supposed to be for the whole family. It's tomorrow.
Number three, lounging. Just hanging, just like, bleh. I feel like Eddie does a lounger at his house?
You think I just lounge all day? Yeah, I do. Not all the day, but. Or a lot of the day, I do.
It's lounging is cool if it's it's lounge time, but if it's not, then it's annoying.
Number two is wasting electricity.
That's a pet peeve that people do.
Yeah.
Then number one is not stacking your dishes.
And I wonder if that's stacking or if it's doing the dishes.
Like the number one thing is your partner or the person you live with not doing the dishes.
Right.
Bothers them to you?
Yeah.
What's your pet peeve with your husband?
Coffee grinds everywhere.
Right now, it's a problem.
At our new house, we have this one little part of the countertop that's dedicated to the coffee.
and now he thinks like that can just be his space where it doesn't matter.
I want to know every day where how he thinks those coffee grounds that are all over the counter
and the coffee like stains, how they go away every day.
That's what I want to know.
Yeah.
Who do you think he just magically disappears?
No, every day I clean it up.
What do you think his would be with you?
Nothing.
Okay.
And Valantilea, probably not true.
No, it's not true.
know that I'm annoying for sure, so we would need to ask him, though.
And I don't have any with any things with the Caitlin.
She's perfect as far as living with.
Makes the bed.
We have two different bathrooms.
She has to use the bathroom in the guest room.
So there's no bathroom sharing.
Oh, that helps.
Yeah.
I have no issue whatsoever.
There's like nothing?
Like sometimes she wants to talk and you don't really want to talk.
Oh, well, she wants to talk all the time.
Right.
And I'm not a talk.
Yeah.
I'm just trying to think of something because there has to be something.
Nothing comes to mind.
And I asked her, and I get, this is very early when I woke her up and asked her this.
So I was like, hey, what are your pet peeves with me?
I don't know that they're pet peeves, but things you do that I just don't understand.
That's okay. Go ahead.
Okay.
If something is sealed, chips, rice cakes, whatever it is,
if it's sealed with one of those little plastic toppers or even the wire ones that you spin and twist,
you don't use them again.
Like you open it and then you throw it away, the twisty thing or it just goes.
But then I wrap it and then lean it on the wrap.
Everything is stale all the time.
All right. Anything else?
Yeah.
You, um, sometimes you take your plates or your bowls to the dishwasher.
I can't even talk.
Sink.
It's early.
It's before the show.
Go ahead.
I take it to the sink.
You take it to the sink and you don't rent them.
I fill it with water.
No.
In fact, last night you filled it with water and I was so taken aback that I didn't even bring it up
because I was like, don't make a big deal about this.
Don't make a big deal about it.
because then he might not do it again
if I make a big deal about it.
Okay, and anything else?
Yeah, you don't always put the toilet seat down.
That's true, and I feel bad about that
because sometimes you'll come out and be like,
I just fell in.
And what do I always say?
I'm getting better.
That brings me to another thing that you do.
That kind of drives me insane.
You bring up things that you do
that are normal to try to get me
to give you some sort of props.
You're like, hey, I fed Stanley this morning,
and I'm like, I fed him every day,
three times a day for the past however long.
That's the end of this segment.
All right.
Sorry she had nothing.
All right, back to you, which is me in the studio.
Oh my gosh, you're like my son.
What?
I made my bed today.
Well, you're supposed to.
I brushed my teeth today.
No, you're not getting rewarded for something you are supposed to do every day.
It's not like that Chris Rock joke from way back of the day.
You're supposed to pay you child's important.
People are always bragging about their pay.
I pay my child support.
He goes, you're supposed to pay your child support.
You can go to Facebook and put your biggest pet peeve with your husband or wife,
whoever you live with.

On with us now is David Rush.
He has so many Guinness World Records.
The reason, David, that we kind of came across your story was this balloon thing you did.
And I'm going to get to some of the stuff he's done.
but you had three balloons, you kept hitting them in the air for over an hour, is that true?
Hour and 13 minutes.
Now, on the surface, and I'm looking at this YouTube video of you, you just keep popping the balloons up in the air.
On the surface, it doesn't seem that hard, but then I start to watch it, it looks really tough.
How many minutes into this did you go, holy crap, it may not make it?
I never actually had that thought in my mind.
I knew I could do it.
I'm a juggler by trade.
So I've spent 5,000 hours probably in my life juggling.
On this one, I knew I was going to be able to do it, but it is harder than juggling, I think.
Was this a record that already stood, or did you go, here's what I can do, and then you broke it?
No, this one's been broken multiple times.
When I first thought it was like five, five and a half minutes was the record.
Some folks at Buzzbee tried to bake it.
They were unable for a while.
And then I broke it, another famous YouTuber broke it, and then somebody else broke it.
And so the record stood at 39 minutes, 49 seconds.
before I broke it this last week.
So David Rush is on.
He lives in Idaho.
He's got a talent for breaking Guinness World Records.
He kept three balloons in the air for one hour, 12 minutes, and 50 seconds.
Do you have to call them and go, hey, I'm going to break this record?
Do they have to be there?
Do they have to see a live stream?
Or do you just have to record it?
So you do have to apply on their website before you can break a record.
You just go out and try to break a record.
They're not going to approve it because you have to apply,
get the application with all of the very specific guidelines you have to follow
and all the evidence you have to gather for each attempt
because it's a little bit different
and then video edit and get witnesses
and timekeepers and photographic evidence
and submit that to them.
You know, what I didn't know is that we've tried to break
one of his records before on the show.
It just has a bit.
Which one?
And we couldn't do it.
But he was the guy we talked about
that drank the lime juice.
He drank an entire liter of lime juice
in 17.29 seconds.
Remember that when these guys tried that?
They almost vomited.
Oh, yeah.
Did you train for that?
How did that one work out?
It was poorly. It was terrible. Let me tell you. The way I trained is with water, and I would drink a half of a liter of water really fast, and that's how I trained the muscles and the reflexes for it. A liter of water just creates a horrible stomach ache from my stomach expanding.
And then I did the lemon juice one and the lime juice one. For those, I never actually did a practice with the lemon juice and a lime juice because it was too painful with that much fluid.
Were you sick after it? Because these guys got the poops. I'm not going to lie to you, David. Lunchbox, how much did you get down?
I got down almost. I was about halfway to the end.
Okay. So, and he had the poops for two days. How'd you do?
You know, with the lemon juice, I had a stomach egg for about 13 hours. It never threw up. The lime juice, I like lime juice better than lemon juice, but I struggle with that one more. I almost threw up right away. I didn't.
Took lots of tons. And yes, I had an upset stomach and some gastrointestinal stuff.
on for day. Now, are you making money off this? Like, have you found a way to monetize this
skill of breaking records? So my mission is actually to promote STEM education, science, technology,
engineering math, and I've got a day job at a cool technology company here in Boise called
Crateappoint, we just launched 5G routers. So on the side, I promote STEM education, because
the hardest positions to fill are these that require, you know, math, science, engineering degrees.
And I break the records to show that if you set your mind to a goal, believe in yourself,
and pursue with a passion, you can accomplish anything.
motivated. Who knew I was going to be inspired by this call? Come on.
Hey, here's another one he broke. He flipped a flaming sword 57 times in 30 seconds.
So, did you ever do this and it not go exactly right in either, A, you burned your hand
or cut a little something? I burned my hands off and not, I mean, the hair's gone off of
them. I get a little, you know, first or second degree burned, but nothing too terrible.
Smart guy, found a way to promote something he's passionate about. So you live in Boise,
right? Yep. Okay, we're on 104.
3 Wow Country in Boise
so if you guys, you know, hear of us
and want to go, do you ever do like,
hey, come meet me, came meet me,
cameos or meet and greets, any of that kind of stuff?
You know, I'm often at events that promote
STEM education, given talks,
or go to libraries and schools, and so I do meet
a lot of people out there in the world
and done several, you know,
radio station promotion things. And, you know,
when X games came to Boise, I juggled
axes for 839 consecutive
catches for that.
Are you kidding?
And you have, all your hands are intact, like fingers, you got it all.
I mean, I've got some scars, but they're all intact.
Here's another one.
He did 200, 2,173 behind the back disc catches for an hour.
He is the world's fastest juggler.
He caught 67 tennis balls in 30 seconds while on a balance board.
Do you just go through, like, the internet, the site, and find records and then decide, hey, that's the one I think I can get?
You know, I do go through the website, the Guinness Book and their YouTube videos.
and I approach them all with what I call it growth mindset.
Stanford psychologist Carol Spreck talked about this,
that I can get better at anything.
So I look at this, every record is like,
okay, I could break this record,
how much time is it going to take me to invest
into it to be able to break that.
And anything with juggling, balancing, running,
are my main core strengths.
And then I've been branching out to, you know,
like the eating records and things like that.
And anytime I first try it, I struggle.
I'm not really good at it,
especially if it's something I haven't practiced before.
and a lot of students have the same problem.
They fail a math test, struggle at science.
I can never become an engineer.
But if they have a growth mindset and they work hard, get help, they can get better.
And when I understand that I am going to become better at this,
I can become the fastest juggler the world and spend a year at it and train for it every day.
I was able to do it.
He's got an electrical engineering degree from MIT.
He has, he published a book, Breaking Records, 21 Lessons from 21 World Record Attempts.
It's on Amazon and Kindle.
David Rush, multiple Guinness World Record Holder, don't people all the time go,
well, I could do that, but they can't.
They're out of their mind, right, David?
No, they absolutely can.
No, if they have to train, though, like Amy's like, well, I can do that right now.
No, I listen to what he's saying, and all I have to do is have a growth mindset
and know that I'm capable of doing that.
And put in the hard work.
Yes.
And put in the hard work.
Exactly.
Well, I really appreciate you spending a little time with us.
That's, and check out his book.
Are you on Instagram, David?
Yeah, I'm Instagram, David Rush speaker there.
And I got a YouTube channel with over 100 of the records posted.
You can watch them at David Rush Record Breaker on YouTube.
All right, there he is.
David, thank you for your time.
Good luck.
And love what you say and love why you do it.
Hey, thanks so much.
It's been a pleasure.
All right, there he is.
David Rush, everybody.
Do you hear what happened on lunchbox this weekend?
No.
Tell them what happened.
I was driving down the road, and it's a two-lane road,
and there's a big truck in front of me with a bunch of porter-potties on the back of it.
and we go around the curve towards the right
and all of a sudden the rope snaps off
and a porter potty flies off the truck
and it comes right at my car
and I have to swerve left
and dodge the porter potty
and it was one of those like handicapped ones
so it was the big double size
and I mean boom right on the ground
and
Lance you're okay
I'm okay
anybody else hit it behind you
no one hit it luckily
but then I'm trying to chase
the guy down because he doesn't even know that he's missing a porter potty. He's just driving
like nothing. And I'm hon, hong, honk, and I'm out the window going, hey, hey, hey, he's just
ignoring me. Finally, two miles down the road, he finally pulls over. And I said, yo, dude, you lost
a porter potty. He goes, dang it. He's like, again, this happens every time.
I mean, but it was one of those things where you're driving and a thing flies off a truck and it was a,
I would have been, I think I'd have been a goner. I saw my life flashed before my eyes.
when I saw that porter potty come.
And probably not because of the porta potty,
but because you would have reacted like with a jerk
and it could hit a car or a tree.
Yes.
And also, not to lose sight of how crazy this is,
but the fact that you keep calling it a porter potty,
it distracts us all from the severity of what happened to you.
What do you call it?
What do you call it?
It's a porta potty, like a portable.
Porter potter potty.
No.
Porta potty.
Porta.
Porta.
Porta.
Yeah.
No, porter potter pot.
No, it's not a guy named John Porter who invented the potter.
It's a porto potty.
Oh, man.
I mean, what is something...
I mean, I'm glad that you're okay, but what are the...
It's like total lunchbox style of like, what happened to you?
Like a...
If that's how you went, a porter potty.
Everybody's at his funeral.
Today, lunchbox is killed by a porter potty.
We say it wrong in his honor.
Here's Amy's pile of stories.
So there's this meditation and relaxation app called
calm and celebrities have lent their voice to it or they got paid, whatever. But there's
celebrities on there. And Matthew McConaughey's voice is the most downloaded. It's been
downloaded more than 11 million times. And they say that that's what's helping people go to
sleep is his voice. Before we begin, as you settle in under the covers with your head easing into the
pillow. I don't sleep. I don't like you to let your mind drift with me for just a minute.
Let's ask the question.
How often do we ponder the depth of the present moment, the one we're in?
It's interesting.
I hate to say this.
It's hard for me to commit to meditation.
You know, it's tough.
My mind just races all the time.
I have to fight myself to go to sleep.
And any time, even when I was struggling really bad with PTSD, I would sit on the bed and try to meditate and it just couldn't catch.
and I know it's because I didn't put the work in.
I know that's all it is.
But I like Matthew McConaughey.
Morgan Freeman is also one that I would listen to.
That would be a good one.
Yeah.
Who else?
Is there anyone else on the list?
All I have is that Matthew is the one that's soothing millions of Americans.
So if you're having trouble falling asleep, maybe try out the Matthew McConaughey on com.
That is pretty good, though.
I know.
I was like, can we hear more?
Close my hat.
None of us told Ray to stop the clip.
You meditate at all?
I don't, but my husband just started.
Yeah, and how is that working?
At first he hated it, and now, I guess because he's been putting in the work,
he's starting to enjoy it and told me that it's like Kenny G on crack.
Whatever app he has, he's not listening to someone talk.
It's like some must be a saxophone or something playing, and he does 20 minutes a day.
And he's been committed and he's done it every day.
And I went from him complaining about it to him being like, you know, he,
If you don't know, my husband loves Kenny G.
So for him to describe something.
Which is weird, by the way.
If you don't know, then I must tell you, her husband is Air Force military guy who just
happened to play saxophone in the band in like 10th grade.
Junior high.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And so he's into it.
Kenny G. on crack.
So he's meditating and all about it.
So I've got to give it a try.
So Luke Brian did the whole BuzzFeed Thirst Tweets series.
I don't know what that is.
I guess it's worth.
The Thirst tweet series?
Yeah.
He like goes and reads what his fans think about him like in a thirsty way.
Is it like a mean tweet ripoff?
Yes, but for thirstiness.
Go ahead.
And so he said that some of his fans need to go to church.
Mmm, Luke Brian's thighs need their own fan page.
You beautiful man, you.
I've been cycling a lot.
The thighs are quite toned.
However, the beer belly is not.
I want Luke Brown to choke me out with his thighs black widow style.
My thighs seem to be the subject of a lot of sexual fantasies.
Thank you guys for that.
And, you know, through all this, let's do remember I do have music.
Yeah.
So he was just, it's reading like thirsty trees.
All right.
What else?
A study has found that face masks make you look more attractive.
Because you're ugly?
Because it covers your face.
It hides the ugly?
I just thought it was more so funny that someone conducted a study of 500 people to,
find this out. And pretty much, yeah, when there was something covering half your face,
everybody instantly became more attractive. Morgan, you ever had a guy come up to you while you
had a mask on? At a restaurant, it happened. But at that point, I had started to take it off. So he
saw my face. So I don't know that it worked out that way. And he kept talking or he walked away.
Yeah, he kept talking. All right, Amy, is that it? Just kidding. I knew he did. Yeah.
That was Amy's pile of stories.
It's time for the good news.
With Amy.
Tell me something good.
So after six years in an Indiana shelter, a 12-year-old pit bull boxer mix named Sandy has found a forever home.
Oh.
Yeah, six years.
So over half of her life, she was there and there was a volunteer, Terry, that worked there and walked Sandy all the time.
And now she was like, oh, man, I'm glad she found a forever home, but I'm going to miss walking her.
So they, through this party, to wish Sandy a goodbye, rolled out a red carpet for her to walk down to her new family.
And, yeah, this shelter says that Sandy left behind 80 dogs and 200 cat siblings.
And that they, this is like an orphanage.
They don't put any dogs down, any cats down.
They keep them.
They will live there until they find a home or until they pass away.
Wow.
Oh, not real blood siblings.
No, no, no, no.
No.
I was like, holy mother.
People at the dog.
That's why I wowed.
Not because there were that many animals there.
I was like, wow, they're the many brothers and sisters.
So shout out to the Marion Grant Humane Society, and they run solely on donations, whether monetary toys or pet food.
So pretty awesome.
That is a good one.
That's what it's all about.
That was Tell Me Something Good.

All right, let's go over to Amy and get that joke.
The Morning Corny.
What's the difference between ignorance and apathy?
What is it?
I don't know and I don't care.
That was the morning corny.
Let's box.
Who did you call here?
I called a bakery at a grocery store because my kid had a birthday a couple weeks ago
and I was like, what kind of things will they allow you to write on a birthday cake?
Will they put anything?
And if I just go on and on and on, will they squeeze it on the birthday cake?
All right, so here is lunchbox calling his alter ego Jason Gibble asking him for a birthday cake for your wife.
Yeah, my hot wife.
Here we go.
Selly Bakery, how may I help you?
Yes, ma'am, I was trying to get a cake for my smoking hot wife.
I'm a businessman making a business deal, so I'm kind of running late to the birthday party.
So I was hoping you could ride it and then I swing in and grab it.
What, I don't know, give me an idea what you want.
Okay, you got a pin?
I do.
Okay.
Got hips like honey, so thick and so sweet.
It ain't no curves like hers on them downtown streets.
Body like a back road.
You know, I've heard this song, but I can't write this all on a cake.
You'd need a whole lot bigger cake.
I don't have that big a cake.
No, no, this is what I wrote.
These are words from my heart.
Okay.
Did you write that down for me?
Got hips like honey.
I got that far.
Okay.
It ain't no curves like hers on them downtown streets.
body like a back road driving with my eyes closed love jason i wrote got hips like honey so thick and so sweet ain't no curds like hers on them back down downtown streets driving with my eyes closed love jason oh no no no you forgot body like a back road before driving with my eyes closed
drive body like a back road driving with my eyes closed okay i wrote it i mean i'll try to see what i can fit on there but i don't want you to be disappointed so well i appreciate
Appreciate it.
Take care.
Bye.
Bye.
Bye.
So how did that end up?
So how did that end up?
Did you call her bag?
I called her back until I wasn't going to be able to make it.
Was she irritated at you?
A little bit.
Does she make the cake?
No, no, no.
She was just going to get one out.
It was just a display.
But she was like, I didn't know how it was going to fit it on there.
Do you want to publicize her bakery?
There do you have it?
Or is she mad?
No, no.
She was happy.
She laughed.
She thought it was funny.
Okay.
She really thought it was funny.
But yeah, shout out
B.
Lunchbox pranks for everything possible.
Why are they your victims all the time?
Well, they, I mean, it just seems to work.
Like, I don't know.
She was very nice.
She was very funny, and she had a good personality.
And she knew the song.
She's like, I know that song.
I'll give you the quote from a famous movie.
Just Name the Movie.
These are very easy quotes.
You shouldn't miss any of these.
Amy, Eddie, Lunchbox, Morgan, you're all in.
Here we go.
I'm going to just say the quote.
Name the movie.
I'm the king of the world.
I didn't give you much.
Is someone confused over there?
Morgan was.
She looked at me like, what the...
Took me a minute. I got it.
Yeah, I'm the king of the world.
Okay, okay.
Amy?
Titanic.
Lunchbox?
Titanic.
Morgan?
Titanic.
Teddy? Titanic.
All right, softball.
Let's go.
Level two.
I feel the need.
The need for speed.
Amy drops her pin like a boss.
Basically threw it down.
I just watched this.
I feel the need.
The need for speed.
I feel the need for speed.
All right, around the room we go.
Amy.
Top Gun.
Lunchbox?
Talladega Knights.
Morgan?
Top Gun.
Eddie?
Top Gun.
All right.
Lunchbox, I'm sorry to see you go,
but you've been eliminated.
It's all right.
Closing time.
Next one.
I will look for you.
I will find you and I will kill you.
I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.
Easy movie quote.
Everybody good?
Yeah, Amy?
Yeah, taken.
Morgan?
Tegan.
Eddie?
Taken.
I will look for you.
I will find you.
And I will kill you.
That's such a good movie.
Taking one was.
Taken 19 kind of stunk, but taken one, we're all right.
All right, here we go.
Next one.
I'll get you, my pretty, and your little dog, too.
Wizard of Oz
Morgan
Wizard of Oz
Eddie
Wizard of Oz
Nice
I'll get you

The next one
I'll have what she's having
In
Morgan's struggling
No
So much
Yes
I'm struggling a little bit
I'll have what she's having
Oh
Oh oh oh oh
Got it
Dang it
All right Amy
When Harry met Sally
Morgan
You've got meal.
Oh, dang, similar-ish type movie, but not it.
Eddie?
In the diner when Harry met Sally.
That's right.
I'll have what she's having.
Because she's going, uh-huh.
I don't have what she's on.
Two people remain.
One more, and then we'll go to sudden death.
Roads.
Where we're going, we don't need roads.
Roads?
Where we're going, we don't need roads.
Eddie, do you know it?
Oh, yeah, 100%.
Oh, wow.
You do?
And Eddie's been on a streak with games lately.
Yeah.
Roads.
It's Roads.
Roads?
That's good, Amy.
What you said was perfect, kind of how he says it.
Roads.
Okay.
Need your answer, Amy.
Apollo 13.
Because the space is a good one.
They don't need rest.
Ray, what?
Sorry, sorry, don't play you.
Eddie, you know what?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That is back to the future.
Oh, I just watched that, too.
Roads, but we're going, we don't need roads.
There he is.
Eddie wants to gas.
On the phone right now is my guy, Mike D.
Not the Mike D that works on this show, but the Mike D that is in the first episode of Breaking Bobby Bones.
Mike D, how are you?
Hey, it's going great, Bobby.
How you've been, brother?
I've been good.
Did you see the, like, the tease of you on the first episode?
I did not see the tease.
The last time the only thing I saw was when we're on the panel, and I heard about the tease.
They let me know.
I totally missed it, man, but I heard it was great.
Yeah.
Have you seen the episode at all?
Yeah.
Well, they sent me what they showed, whatever they showed, the press and the rest of the panel,
remember, it just happened to be our show.
Dang.
So I'm assuming it was the whole thing, but it was awesome.
Would you tell our listeners, and you can be honest about this,
how scared I was to actually go hang out over the Grand Canyon on a rope?
And you know what, man?
I've been asking a few things what I most remember about the whole episode,
and I can definitely say it was your fear.
It was definitely real, no faking with that at no point at all.
But it was definitely something that we overcame together,
and you did amazing, dude.
But watching you on the side of that cliff, that leg shaking,
that was the one thing that I won't forget.
How did you get into rope access, meaning I didn't even know what that was
until I met you, where you know, you're building these rope rigs,
you're climbing places that people,
normally aren't able to get to. How did you get, you know, exposed to this industry?
To be honest, I fell right into it. I used to drive a dump truck for a little while and
things got bad. I lost my job and just through a friend, I was hired on with Absalom, my company
that I worked for now and since the beginning. And that's how I thought. I thought it was just
a job for me to go hang off a building and clean a couple windows. And here, lo and behold,
it was a whole career path laid out right in front of me. And I fell in love with rope access right from
the get-go and here I am 14 years later, you know, teaching folks to do what I do and
then being on often TV shows with what people like yourself.
Were you scared for me?
Did you think there was any chance I would die, be honest?
Not necessarily die, but there was a couple of times I was ready to pull the plug, my friend.
Doing what we do is extremely safe, but it does require a lot of training.
And, you know, when I first saw you get on that rope and start flopping around like a fish
and out of water, I definitely had my thoughts about maybe just pulling the plug all together.
Because they told you if it didn't seem safe or I didn't seem ready to just go,
nope, you're not going to do it, right?
Yeah, they definitely did.
And of course, you know, with respect to being that safety is priority number one,
that definitely was a concern, man.
But you did amazing.
You took right to it.
And by the end of it, the only thing we had to shake off was on those nerves.
Yeah, those nerves are still there.
I watch it and I still get anxiety thinking about when you were out there in the middle
going, come on, Bobby, you can do it.
And I'm like, I'm not going anywhere.
Like I'm going to sit right here on the ground and not.
And there's one point to what we're up there
And I'm having to clean the bottom of the sky bridge.
Remember I'm on a row 4,000 feet over.
And he goes, hey, look down at your bucket
because you need to get the squeegee out to clean.
I'm like, I'm not looking down.
Like, I'm going to keep looking up and stick my hand
and try to find the bucket because I didn't want to look down.
That's crazy that you remember that body
because that's actually a story that I tell folks
when we're talking about this show.
I go, man, he was so scared.
He wouldn't even look down at his bucket.
That kind of coax him.
into it. But you know what? You found
the water. It was down there. It was in the bucket
and you finally found it. That's my guy, Mike D. He is on
episode one, the Grand Canyon
Cliffhanger, breaking Bobby Bones. You're going to love
his story. You're going to be inspired by the guy.
You know, he had some adversity. He hit him
early in life and he did not let that adversity
define him. And here he is now. And we hung 4,000 feet over the
Grand Canyon together and you can watch that. Mike D, it is a real treat
to talk to you again. I cannot wait to watch this

It's time for the good news.
With lunchbox.
Tell me something good.
Out in Mesa, Arizona, in the middle of the night, this neighbor wakes up and goes,
oh my gosh, my neighbor's house is on fire.
So Ty runs next door, starts banging on the door,
and there's a ring doorbell camera.
So he starts looking into it, and he's yelling,
Your house is on fire.
Your house is on fire.
The mom answers the door.
He takes the two-year-old.
girl out to the street and then Ty
runs in and gets the other daughter
out of the house. Wow. Wow. Also, to go
up to the cameras or talking to the camera, that's pretty
aware. It's pretty aware
to go, okay, but they can hear me. Because
again, if somebody's beating on your door, you're probably not just going to answer
it. If somebody comes in my door, I have the app too. I just go,
who's out there? Also,
I'm standing on the other side of the door. Right.
I can just yell through the door. But yeah, yeah,
that's a good story. That is what it's all about right there.
That was Tell Me Something Good.
On right now.
Jason and San Antonio.
Jason, what are you?
Good, how are you doing?
Hey, I'm pretty good.
What do you have on your mind?
So my girlfriend's building the house, and she wants to have a housewarming party, and she wants to do a
housewarming party registry.
And I told her that I thought that was bad taste.
It's not a wedding.
It's not a baby shower.
She disagrees with me, and she doesn't know why I feel like it's bad taste.
So that's kind of where I'm at.
Well, she is going to throw a party.
Now, I've never had one, but if someone said I'm having a housewarming party,
there's a registry,
I don't think I would think anything weird about it
because here's the thing,
if you go to someone's house,
you're expected to bring something anyway,
and when you have to figure out
what yourself to bring,
it's always stupid,
it's always some kind of wine
that no one's ever going to drink,
so why not just go ahead
and get something good
that they're going to like it?
I feel like that actually makes it easier.
The registry takes a burden off me.
Because, I mean, I don't know.
This is me every time.
I don't know what to take to people's house.
It's okay, man. It's okay.
So you know what I did.
last time, the last time, somebody invited me over,
I grabbed the thing of almond milk that had been unopened from the fridge and took it over
and gave it to them.
Okay.
And I was like, hey, I bought you some almond milk.
And then I got the, here's the, and there's a twist.
Then I got back home and Caitlin goes, hey, we have a new thing, almond milk in the fridge
hadn't been opened yet.
See, I thought you took that one.
Apparently I took the one that already been open and a half drink.
Oh, great.
You've been worse.
So I'm on the side of, I don't mind a house swimming party.
Nobody has to come.
Nobody has to buy anything.
I don't think it's bad taste.
the only thing that I would say, if you're throwing the party,
have a little something there.
A little food, a little something for people to come over to do.
Like, you know, there's some money in that party.
What do you think?
I am with you on the fact that it does make it easier on those that are attending,
and I would appreciate that.
I would normally, though, just do a gift card.
That keeps it simple.
Like if someone has moved somewhere, then a gift card to target, bedbath, and beyond,
or something like that is so easy.
So that's, that solves a problem right there.
For me personally, I would not feel comfortable putting up a house
Swimming Registry, but I'm not going to hate anybody for doing it.
But I wouldn't do it.
But if you put a registry up, that eliminates the need for a gift card.
I understand.
And it's mailed right to you.
You don't even have to go to the store or get online and buy it and log on.
I agree.
But I'm just saying an easy thing to take to housewarming party so you don't have to take
almond milk is a gift card.
No.
I'm not buying a gift card taking in an envelope.
Why?
Yeah.
It's weird.
What?
in a card? I think I gave Morgan number two a gift card when she moved into her house. She didn't have a party.
She was going to. Yeah, but I didn't go to her house. I sent her online. Gift cards are fine online.
I'm not going to walk up to somebody hand him an envelope. Hey, here you're going to do.
I feel like it's a drug deal or something. Okay, here's where we stand, Jason. You're wrong. She's right.
Actually, no, Jason, I'm with you. I would feel uncomfortable. But that wasn't the question.
No, because he's part of this too. If she puts that out there, he is somewhat, he's putting it out there too.
and I would find it uncomfortable.
Throw the party, ask for the gifts.
People don't have to get you gifts.
They're going to want to come over eventually anyway.
They're going to feel weird about having to bring something.
Let them get you a towel.
You know?
Okay.
Have the party.
Register away.
And Jason, what I've learned, you just kind of pick your battles.
She has to pick them with me.
I have to pick them with her.
I don't think this is one you want to invest a whole lot of yourself,
a whole lot of you putting your foot down and going, this is not for me.
Well, she's going to do what she wants to do regardless,
and I already told her to do that.
I just wanted another opinion on if I was a,
if I was wrong in the matter.
Well, it doesn't make Amy and I feel super comfortable,
but we're both okay with this.
So the song that's the all-time worst
that getting stuck in your head.
I have a list here.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Ready?
And number 5 on the song that gets stuck in my head all the time,
FGL meant to be.
Oh, yeah.
Just can't shake it.
It takes something to knock that one out.
Some other ones will just go away.
But I need something to knock
meant to be out because it just stays in there.
That's a good one.
That's at my number five.
on songs in my head.
Number four,
and I don't hear it a lot,
but when I do, I don't lose it.
It's Wilson Phillips, hold on.
Can't shake that one.
At number three,
it's what they call Rick rolling.
Rick Astley, never going to give you up.
Number two in the songs
that stay on my head the longest
that I can't shake.
The lion sleeps tonight.
Do you know this song?
Yeah, in the jungle, the mighty jungle.
Once I hear it, I still listen on Cool 95.
Good Times Great Old.
He's Cool 95 here.
We're going to play The Lion's Sleeps tonight.
The Wemo up.
There's like four different parts of this song that can just stay in your head all.
And then finally, and you guys may have this on your list.
My number one song that if I hear it, it's so hard to get it out, is this one right here.
Oh, yeah.
Uptown Funk.
Anyone have that on theirs?
No.
Their main one?
Amy, what do you have?
A Justin Bieber, baby.
Eddie, what is it for you?
I don't know why it gets stuck in my head, but, and I hate this song.
It's Watch me Whip, Watch Me Wip, Watch Me Nain.
Okay.
What me do, me.
I hate that song.
Lunch box.
Oh, that's easy.
Chumbawumba, tub pumping.
Yeah, that's good.
That almost hit my list, too.
Morgan number two?
Mine's an old song.
It's Vanessa Carlton's A Thousand Miles.
Oh, that's so good.
It's not that.
It's kind of old.
For her, yeah.
Final one, Ray Mundoondow, what song gets stuck in your head?
Whenever I'm about to get a beer, an ice-cold beer,
I mean, the only thing I think of is Luke Combs.
A really catchy hook, yeah.
We'll put it up on our Facebook page.
Tell us what song stays in your head the longest.
You just can't get it.
I wake up.
There's all the time there's a song on my head at some point.
Me too.
Me too.
Like I go from one, my head's like a jukebox.
It's just one song to another.
One song to another.
Constantly.
Next song comes up.
On the Bobby Bones show now.
Courtney Monroe.
She is the president of National Geographic Global Television.
She is the reason that I have a show that exists that will be on at 10-9 Central.
Courtney Monroe, everybody.
Yeah.
Hi, everybody.
How are you, studio?
Hey, we are good.
question for you. Yes, Bobby. Tell me about this, how this time thing works. 10, 9 central. Does that
mean everybody but Central gets it at 10 and then only Central gets it at 9? This is the most basic
question, but I need help here. Yes, that is correct. Don't you live in the Central Time
Zone though? But I know we get it at 9, right? So if it's... But if you're on the East Coast
where I live, or you're on the West Coast, you get it at 10. I just, because that people hit me up
from all these times zones, they're like, what time is it on here? And I'm like, you know what? I'm
ask somebody who knows the president.
Apparently, I'm not that person, though.
Okay, so 10-9 Central
on Nat Geo, breaking Bobby Bones.
And let me ask you the first question that people want to know.
Why in the world would you
green light a show with me on it?
First of all, I'm a huge fan.
I've been a huge fan and loyal listener for a long time.
So part of this was just a ploy to get to know you,
really. That's number one.
Number two, you were on Running Wild with Bear Girls,
your listeners, your fans tuned in, became the highest rated episode ever for us that season.
And we're like, oh, my gosh, people love him.
Let's do a show with Bobby Bones.
And the truth of matter is this show, this show is the embodiment of exactly who you are.
It is full of adventure.
It is fun.
It is full of heart and inspiration.
And your viewers are going to love it.
And so I knew it was going to be a hit.
I knew it was going to be entertaining.
I knew you were going to have fun doing it.
That's why we greenlit it.
Now, the question for me is, did you ever get nervous that I would be physically, like, really badly injured or die?
Because some of the stuff I was doing was pretty nuts.
Yes, I did worry about that.
I was a little conflicted because on the one hand, the crazier things you do, the, you know, the more nutty it is, the better the television.
But I really like you, and I didn't want you to get hurt.
So, yes, I was definitely nervous, but I was conflicted because it makes for great entertaining television.
The first episode is me hanging over the Grand Canyon.
You know, my body is literally trembling.
Yeah, it's really terrifying to watch, like, terrifying to watch.
But you say that in a way that you were happy that I was terrified.
I was super happy.
Yes, because this is all about you facing your fear,
getting outside your comfort zone, being vulnerable,
and spending the day with people who do this for a living,
you know, really inspiring individuals who are willing to take risks,
and you go for it, and it's really fun.
And, yes, seeing you scared is kind of an interesting.
entertaining. For me, it brings back all the anxiety that I had while actually doing it. Like, I had
trouble sleeping the night before. I get out and there's literally a cliff. And they're like, okay,
we're going to, you're going to, you're going to, you're going to, and we're going to, I can't
do it. And I sat there forever going, guys, I don't know if I can do this. And it just brings back the
anxiety that I had. I only watched like the first half of it. And then I, then I fast forward it to just
doing the human part of it because I was so scary. But I think that's what's so great about it, because
this is not fake made for television stuff.
All viewers and your fans are going to have to do is see your face.
And the fear is real and the hesitation is real.
And I think that's what makes the show so compelling is that it's real.
And you're willing to be afraid.
And I think the way you connect with these sort of everyday heroes is really inspiring.
Did you see any of the episodes and go, that one kind of sucked?
No.
I mean, I have my favorites.
I'm not going to say what they are.
I think the, you know, the more afraid you are, the more out of your comfort zone, I think, the better.
But I love them all.
And I love the people that you meet.
And I love all the everyday jobs that you immerse yourselves in.
And I think, you know, listeners are going to see themselves in a lot of the people that you meet.
And I think that's pretty compelling as well.
Yeah, come for the action and me looking dopey, try and stuff out.
But stay for the stories of people who fought real adversity and fought their way through.
And I think if you watch an episode and you don't feel inspired, I did not do my job.
And so I think you'll finish this show and go, dang, like, I love them.
And you may feel a little better about yourself, too.
I totally agree.
And I also love how you're begging all your listeners to watch.
What do they want?
Blood?
Urine.
You're in.
Listen, I'm not above begging either.
So please watch.
You will love it.
National Geographic Channel.
They'll eventually be on Disney Plus.
No excuse, lots of places to watch it.
People are going to love it.
They're going to love you in it, and they're going to love it.
There she is. Courtney Monroe, President of National Geographic Global Television and My Hero.
Breaking Bobby Bones, 10, 9 Central tonight on that Geo Channel.
Courtney, thank you.
Hopefully, we will talk again soon.
Thanks so much, Bobby.
Okay, bye.

Bobby Bones Show.
Boney up the day.
This story comes to us from Jacksonville, Florida.
A man walked into a Wells Fargo bank, went up to the teller, pulled out a gun, pointed out, and said,
give me all the money.
And the teller looked at him and goes, that's a fake gun.
He goes, give me all the money, goes, dude, your gun's not real.
I'm not giving you any money.
So the robber turned to leave and he was arrested outside by the security guard.
Was it a fake gun?
Fake gun.
And a security guard can arrest?
I guess if they're also a cop.
Yeah, it's an off-duty cop working as a security guard at the bank.
You at least would throw the fake gun on it, right?
Well, now I'm curious about an off-duty.
You still have the rights to arrest, or is it a citizen's arrest?
No, he's a cop.
If you're off-duty, you can still arrest someone.
You can arrest when you're off-duty?
If you're a police officer?
I don't know.
If someone's robbing a pizza place, if you're in there, and you're an off-duty cop,
you have to go out, not on the clock.
Can't do any arresting.
I don't know.
All right.
I'm Lunchbox. 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 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.
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.
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, but still tried to eat them.
Thank you.
We'll see you tomorrow.
Bye, Roddy.
