Transmitting. Welcome to Friday show. Morning, studio. Morning. All right, look, you can be anywhere in the whole wide world, but you're here with us, and we appreciate that. We go around the room. Let's check in on everybody. He once worked

for a new station in Texas in this next person's positive attitude can be infectious. That's right. Producer Eddie, everybody. Yes, go. Well, guys, you know, I was having a bad day a few days ago. The kids are just driving me nuts, and I fell into a really dark place. What? I went to the freezer. I grabbed ice cream, and it was an unopened tub of ice cream. And, bones, I don't know where it went. I ended up eating the full thing.

Did you black out while you ate it if you don't know where it went? I was watching a basketball game, and next thing you know, I was looking for the last spoon. I'm like, oh, my gosh. What size tub? Show me with your hands. Oh, like, you know. Oh, a real. Not one of those small ones.

No, no, no, a real thing. I'm never eating a tub of ice cream. The whole thing. That's what I said. I thought it was going to be one of those little ones, but not the tub tub. And I felt like complete crap. Like immediately. As soon as I realized it was gone, I was like, well, my stomach was like, well, it's bubbling and making all kinds of noises.

That was crazy. I've never done that before in my life. What kind was it? Oh, it was like vanilla Oreo. It had crushed Oreos in. Man. Oh, it's so good. I've never eaten a tub, though, and I can go hard.

I'll go on a bender, like a sugar bender sometimes, but I still can't eat a tub of ice cream. Dude, it's crazy. My mouth is just like, hey, keep it coming. Keep it coming. Then my stomach was like, what are we doing? How was the ice cream? The after effects. Oh, it was terrible, dude.

I thought so. Terrible for two days. This next person was second to Abby in our IQ test, and we all know his desire to bully her will never be put to rest. Did Abby write these? Sounds like it. All about Abby, though. Here he is. Lunchbox, everybody.

Funny you bring up Abby. You guys say, I'm a bully, and I don't support. her and I don't, you know, I make fun of her and I'm rude to her. Well, I was with some people from the Grand Hyatt Hotel here in downtown Nashville other night, brand new spanking hotel, beautiful. And I got out, I'd be a singing gig. I booked her. What do you mean?

Does she know this? No, she doesn't know this. She just finding out. I was talking to the lady and I was like, hey. What's the catch, though? You always put her in places that are super uncomfortable, and you're like, why do people say I mean to her? And then you record her and then make fun of her.

No, like I told her I booked her gig in Vegas, and I just put her on the street and said sing. Right. You didn't book that gig. I mean, she thought she was going to sing a gig. So why should she believe this? What's the catch? No, there's no catch. I mean, I even got the lady saying, look, I am telling you she's not that good. Wait. Oh, thank you. What?

But you're willing to book her. You have a clip. Got a clip from her. Okay, go. Okay, what is your offer to Abby? Because I'm booking her a gig. Tell us what you're offering, Abby, and the ground rules. Hold on. Are you drunk? Yeah.

We had a couple drinks at you. At Tommy, what? You're an offer. Go, I'm sorry. all right to stop that clip, but would you play it again? They hired at Luna at the Grand Hyatt, 25th floor, the rooftop bar, like 5 to 7 maybe? On a Friday night? On a Monday through Thursday.

She just has to pick the day. Yeah. And does she get paid or is it volunteer bases? Volunteer. Tips. All right. You heard of here, Abby. I bought you a gig. Of course.

Promote it for us. Don't say I never did nothing for you. Abby, your thoughts? No, I knew. when he said, I have something for you, I'm like, I'm not even going to listen because, yeah, I know what he did last time. Did you just not hear the clip? Do you not trust that he, this is what he said it is? I don't. And it's like, this volunteer. Yeah, she's not getting paid. You didn't book her anything. She said tips. I got her the stage. You have to get booked to get on that stage. And I gave her,

the stage. Yeah, it's a nice state. Yeah, does anyone really go? It's on the 25th floor of a hotel overlooking downtown. Oh, wow. What do you want? Like you, this girl has nothing and she's complaining. Wait, stop saying she has nothing that she can't sing. This is our point. Nintendo tried this in the night so you like. But she's saying, oh, it's not even paid. No, Abby, all your gigs are not paid.

You work for tips. That's what they do on Broadway. So let's go. You're going to sing or you're not. I'll check it out. Okay. Thank you. No, no.

Sorry, Abby. Are you interested in singing or not? No, not when you book it. No. That's a good point. I don't trust it either. Guess what? What?

That means she doesn't really want it. She doesn't want to sing. I don't think Abby's dream is to be a professional singer anymore. She's taking singing lessons. Okay, and I took golf lessons. I'm trying to be in a PGA. Got them. All right, fine.

Let's go over to Amy. She's an expert when it comes to corny jokes, and don't forget to grab your tickets to our live podcast show in Nashville. It's coming up next week, folks. Here it is. Amy, everybody. Okay, so my son was like, hey, I have this friend at school, but when can I call him my best friend?

And I thought, oh, I don't know. don't rush things. So then I got curious and I looked it up so I could give him some stats. And an acquaintance to a casual friend is 94 hours spent together. Acquaintance to a casual friend. So that would just be somebody you see at work

where you talk a little bit. Then to somebody that you might hang out with once every couple of months? Right, because it goes one hour to 94. So acquaintance, whatever. 90 hours with somebody's a lot. Yeah. To be casual?

I thought so too. And then casual friend to friends, 164 hours. Friends. That must be a good friend. And then friends to best friends, 219 hours. So what if you just, what if you end up like having a sleepover?

Does that count it's 24 hours? Ooh, good question. Maybe, no, because you're sleeping. You're not spending time together. But sleepover is a long time to hang out with someone. So that's commitment. But apparently it doesn't count if you're not awake. And listen, after I looked that up and I was looking at the hours,

I was like, sometimes you just connect with people, you know? You don't need the, whatever, 219 hours. Yeah, basically, if you were divide this, 219 hours, divided by 24th, basically nine straight days with somebody. Wow. So if you are marooned on an island for nine days with somebody, you can become their best friend.

219 hours. That's a lot of hours. But spread out, like, over time. Do you believe you can have more than one best friend? Yes. I recently was interviewing someone from my podcast, actually, that she said people range anywhere from, you know, one close friend to 10, but the average, like the sweet spot is we only, we have capacity for five close relationships. I said best friend.

The word best, Amy. Best. Can you have more than one best friend? Yes, I think, yes, you can. I don't think you can. Can you have more than one favorite team per sport? Yes, you can. No, no, no, no.

That's absolutely incorrect. You're being too nice and kind and generous right now when we are being unrealistic and stupid, so we will not accept that today. Okay, Ray, go ahead. From Mountain Pine, Arkansas, he drives the eye on five, and Monday through Friday, we go live. Bobby Bones. Thank you very much. Let me say this. I hate coffee.

I hate coffee. I never like the taste of coffee. I never even had a drink coffee until I was like 36 years old. It smells bad. It tastes bad. It looks gross. But because I've been doing this whole 30, and it's not a diet. And I think I'm not losing any weight.

It's not to lose. I think I eat more now because I have to cut certain things out to kind of figure out what's wrong on my stomach. I need a little bit of caffeine in the morning to get me through because I'm getting all the food I normally get. And I can't drink coffee with any of the added. So I have to drink what's called an Americano. Oh. Which is black coffee. No, no, which is espresso shots and water. And so I drink it. And I'm like talking to Mike Dee. I'm like, this is torture. And I don't drink like half of it. And I'm like, who would drink this? And that's like his drink of choice. He loves that. Straight black coffee. I just, I don't think I'm going to come away from this more of a

coffee lover because it's just really bad tasting to me. And I don't understand people that love coffee. I know I'm missing out on it. You are. Yeah, it's like, I know I'm missing out, and I'm not saying people that love coffee or dumb. It's like, I don't, I don't get it. It just tastes bad.

I don't have it. It's like beer. I've never tasted beer, but I smell it. It smells so bad. Oh, but it tastes so good. Did you like it at first? No, no, no. So you developed a taste.

Of course. After a while, you're just like, ooh, this is good. Well, and then you, I mean, you like getting drunk first off, but then after a while, you like, you like the taste of different beers. Like, ooh, that's a good beer. Is it because of the results and then you start to associate that taste with what the results were? Probably. Yeah, because Coors lights coming out with popsicles that are non-alcoholic.

Which is the dumbest thing I've ever seen. Why would you get some taste like beer if it's not alcoholic? Right. So would you eat the popsicle? Yeah, probably not. Okay. I want to get drunk. Right.

Do you like to taste a beer if it didn't have alcohol in? Probably not. No. I wouldn't reach for a beer just to taste it. No. Mike, would you drink an Americano if it didn't have caffeine or the effects of coffee? I love the taste of it. You're a psycho-cical.

That's why I don't like anything in it. But Bobby, you don't have any kind of nut milk in there or nothing? I don't put anything in there. Oh, you should put almond milk in there or something? I can't because they have a lot of additives. I guess I can get some kind of gross crap from the grocery store. All right, there you go. Let's get going.

Thank you guys for hanging out with us. It's time to open up the mail bag. You send an email and we read it all the air. It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Hello, Bobby Bones. I've listened to you guys since 20. I never thought I would be the one sending an email for advice. My best friend and I have made it through two rounds of auditions to compete on a game show.

The next round is the final audition to hopefully nab a place on the show. What is your advice for us nailing the interview? So far are the interviews that have been virtual and this is the first one that's in person, in real life. The show is along the lines of pop culture trivia, something I'm highly confident in. But I've heard that Hollywood execs want a certain look. or attitude over actual knowledge. Bobby, what advice would you give us for audition day? Sincerely, guessing on our first impression.

They just want energy. You got to be good for the show, meaning you have to be somewhat knowledgeable. They just want energy. Just go in with energy, a lot of energy, and that's all they want. You don't need to look and start away because they're trying to fill all these different types of groups. They want short people. They want big people. They want little people. They want white people.

They want green people. They want black people. So don't try to put yourself in like, we should really dress like this or we should act like this because this is what they want. You actually have no idea what they want or what they're looking for. They're looking for you or they wouldn't move you this far. And they're spending money to fly you out to an audition.

Yeah. I mean, they're investing money that there's not a lot of right now into getting you there so they must really like you. Just like in life, not just in this audition. Just like in life. if you bring energy, everything else is going to work itself out. Because even if you mess up with great energy, we know, I know, they know,

that you're going to continue that great energy. Messups can be fixed. Lessons can be learned. But you can't teach someone to have good energy or a great attitude or a good work ethic. You show up with good energy, smiling, making people like you, you'll get on the show. Don't try to dress as something you ain't.

Don't show up as a full cowboy if you ain't a cowboy. Oh, yeah. That's it. But if you are, dress up like a cowboy. Sure. Be what you've been. Dance with the girl that brought you. So my grandma used to say, just in life.

Is there a thing as too much energy? Like, hey, I'm here. Well, don't go in doing song and dance. Okay. You're just trying to win a Tony. Yeah. Just have good energy. That's all.

That's the end. That's not just for this. That's in life, everybody. Keep good energy. Sometimes energy will be sucked out of you. That's okay. But if you keep good energy, good energy will also come back at you. Good luck.

Let us know how it goes. The end. Close it up. Round the clothes, Bobby Failedack. It's time for Fun Fact Friday. Fun Fact Friday. Around the room, you'd all been given the task. Come back to the studio with the most fun fact you can find.

Let's see what's up. First, Morgan. According to National Geographic, if you look at pictures of sick people, your immune system will automatically give itself a little boost. I thought it was going the other way. We did say, I thought if you look at sick, you get sick. Yeah.

It almost like it basically trains a brain path to not get whatever that person has. I start trying to Google sick people constantly. That's my lock screen. Is somebody sick so I can fight it? Amy, what do you have? This one's for you, Bobby. President Lyndon B. Johnson was picky about room temperature. He constantly was asking Air Force One flight crew like,

change the temperature, change the temperature. So eventually they installed a fake dial for him to control the temperature. And then he stopped complaints. I throw them all in jail once I figured that out. That's so funny. We should do that to Bobby. No, because I know it's hot in here. No, it is freezing in here.

No, no, no. I'm saying when it's hot in here. We need the air to be slightly uncomfortable cool because you think better. You're more awake and aware when it's colder. And so we keep it like that. And you guys know I've done this for so many years. It's always wintertime in here. It can be 105 outside.

We're showing up in coats. Yep. Look around the room right now. Everybody's got long things on. That's right. Yeah, and I have a blanket. And what's crazy is it felt like, okay in here and then we walked in and I was

like you know put my blanket on and I feel like that made you that get sent a signal to your brain because right after I did that you're like it's a little too comfortable so let's make it slightly uncomfortable so we can perform better why do you think ACT and SAT RURO is a little cooler did you think better

well that did not help me oh yeah I thought it was germs or maybe it did and that's the best you can get oh hey lunchbox what do you have 19 feet six inches That's the longest measured pee in the history of the world. Back in 2016, Micah Dinkle was able to shoot his pee 19 feet six inches. How long were he holding that?

And they said, do not try this unless you are under medical supervision because it can cause problems to your bladder and urinary tract. Well, yeah. But yeah, 19 feet six inches. Just arch your back and try it. What are the odds that a guy with the last name, Dinkle, has the longest tinkle? Funny. Didn't even think about that. Probably why I started pursuing it to begin with.

The rhyme. Yeah, certain things like Mr. Wetzel. Pretzel. Pretzel. Wetzel's pretz. Interesting. His name was already Wetzel, so what are you going to specialize in? Let's say there's somebody who wants to work at Hobby Lobby.

Bobby. That's right, me. Look at that. There you go. Eddie, what are you up? So, does the name Bob Heft ring a bell? Hecty trashkins? No, no.

Bob Heft. He created the American flag as we know it today. the 50 star American flag. And back in 1958, he did it for his American history class. His teacher gave him a B plus. And that's the flag that we have today for America. Isn't that amazing? That's a good one.

Yeah. So how did it get to become America? I'm so confused. Yeah. Well, they were looking for a design for a 50 state flag. And he submitted it, but he also gave it to his teacher as a class project. It sort of like invent America in fifth grade when I invented a tear away pants. Not really.

except they already were invented. You submitted something that already been invented. And we looked up the patent for tearaway pants and it was like from 15 years before you had submitted your pants. I would say this is more like an artist getting sent home on American Idol and then making it big comments. That's a good analogy.

Good one, Amy. There's only one member of Congress who ever had a number one hit. Can you name them? Oh, got it. Clay Aiken. He's never been in office. Oh, he ran, but he didn't win.

You sure? Yeah. I'm pretty sure he's on the office. board. No, but the board's different than Congress. He could be local, but only one member of Congress who ever had a number one hit. So nobody gets up this for a. He was in a duo. Oh, Dan and Shea.

No, neither one of them have served. Okay, we need another hint. Well, I just gave you one. I got it. Sunny and Cher. Sunny Bono. Sunny had a number one hit with I Got You, Babe. While he was a member of the House Representative from 1995 to 1998.

That's amazing. Wow. That's pretty crazy. It's pretty cool. That's Fun Fact Friday. Fun fact, Friday. It's time for the good news. With producer Eddie.

Yeah, home is something good. Back in May of 2006, Michael Sutton and Kelly Phillips went out to celebrate Kenny's 18th birthday. There was an altercation. Somebody got killed, but they pinned it on Michael and Kenny. So falsely convicted, they were in prison, sentenced to 15 years. Well, the Innocence Project, which is a nonprofit that gets people out of jail of their innocent, they defended them in court, they figured out that they were innocent. and they got out.

So recently, they're 33 years old now. They were 18 then. Wow. They got out, which is awesome. But at the same time, the University of Akron gave them a full scholarship to go to college and get a degree. Wow. And imagine that much time. Yeah, you're 33 years old now.

Of your life. And all that time that you have to build your skills, your resume, career, family, all gone. They do get money to. And I remember covering this too when I worked in the news. But it's never enough money, man. All those years lost. Like $15, $20,000 a year or something. And the Innocence Project, Lunchbox, is that who was trying to get Stephen Avery out of jail?

Yeah, there was a lady out of Chicago. She worked for the Innocence Project there, and she took his case. And, man, she never got him out. That's the guy from making a murderer on Netflix. Yeah. The Wisconsin guy. Don't you know? And the crazy thing is some states, you don't get any money.

It's state-by-state basis. That's crazy. Glad those two guys are out. Yeah, they can start their life over. Thank God for the Innocence Project. That is what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. It's the easiest trivia game that's ever existed.

And then again, in the more, I love cereal. It's my favorite, and I can't have any. Well, they're not having to market this towards you because you're good.

But cereals are now making nighttime version. versions so that people will eat it at a meeting with a lamp on it? No. I don't need a nighttime version. They're adding like herbal blends and vitamins and minerals. Like you won't taste them. I don't need. They don't tell me.

It's like zinc, folic acid, B vitamins. Here's the thing. Cookie Crisp doesn't have folic acid. It should never have folic acid. What the cereal will do is promote natural melatonin production. Therefore, you can eat it at nighttime and it's not going to disrupt your sleep. The flavors are blueberry midnight. and honeymoon glow.

Ooh. Those don't sound bad, but what's the brand? Well, I, uh, that's what I'm saying. Like, it sounds like that's like a frosted flay or a post, post, Post, Post, the maker of Honey Bunches of Oats and Raisin brand. Okay.

They're putting out a whole line of sweet dreams. I hear you. It's just another way to sell cereal. I just don't like that they're listing folic acid. It doesn't help my cereal experience. And zinc? It's good if it's in there. And I also like the nighttime.

Okay. We make boxes of night. cereal. But when you start putting herbs and cereal, that's like dinner. Yeah. You eat herbs and dinner. I don't think you're going to taste like basil. I do because they told me it's in there. No. No, no. It's like onions. My wife chops them up. If she tells me, I'm like, I don't like onion that tastes them. If she doesn't tell me, I never taste them. And then the mill's over and she's like, I chopped up onions in there. You're a child. Yes. Okay. Well, it's going to taste just like your daytime cereal, but. I don't believe it at all. Okay, I got two

sisters that are in their hundreds. One of them, Shirley, who's 106. and her younger sister, Ruthie, who's 103. And they are sharing tips for a long, happy life. You ready? Genetics. Obviously. If they're both alive, genetics. They say, get your steps in.

They try to hit 10,000 steps a day, cultivate connection with people, read wisely, eat moderately, and then the number one thing, focus on the positive. Oh, that sounds great. All right now I can't stop focusing on nighttime cereal. just because the herbals and zinc does not sound good all right go ahead

Tim McGraw has a leprechaun tattoo I bring this up because it's St. Patrick's Day which I feel bad because at first I was like oh yikes what did he do that but it's something special that he got a few years ago in New Orleans with his brothers in honor

of their late father Tug McGrawl he loved St. Patrick's Day and leprechawn so they all got tattoos to remember him I find people who love St. Patrick's Day either Irish and it's kind of their brand because I'm an Irish American or they just love to drink.

Yeah, that's about it. There's no in between. Right. Like, why else would you like it? So, I don't know which one. I don't know if Tim's Irish or not. Or if Old Tug. He's a McGrath, dude. It's Irish. McGraw. Yeah, MC. But why do you go, McGraw?

Because MC, because MC before a last name is Irish. Because we kind of go muggerick. If it were, oh, oh, McRaw. That too. I would know, but like Tim O'O McCraw. I think it's the same.

Huh, okay. I'm Amy. That's my pile. That was Amy's pile of story. It's time for the good news. With lunchbox. Stay out of something good. We're going to do a little time travel here. Back to 2015, William Daniels goes to the convenience store, buys a lottery ticket.

$100,000 winner! Woo! Pretty cool, right? Well, then now he's... 31 years old. He bought another scratch off. And he won $50,000. And he said he knows how he did it. It's the long hair.

Back in 2015, he had long hair. Cut it, didn't win again. He grew his hair back out, $50,000. Boom. So if you want to win the lottery, have long hair. That's what you take from this. Yep. When you grew your hair out, did you win the lottery? No. I had it long, too. Lunchbox grew his hair out for a bet.

Oh, man. Yeah. You and your buddy's best. What? How much money? We bet $1,200 that I would not get a haircut for one year. There was alcohol involved. And one guy bet me $1,000. The other guy bet me $200.

And six months into the bet, the $1,000 better got a girl pregnant, unplanned. And I said, hey, man, we can back out of the bet. We know how to do this. He's like, no, man, don't worry about it. Just because I have a kid doesn't mean I won't pay you. All right, bets on. kept it a year, never got pain. Because he could at least cut his hair at six months.

Yeah. He kept it going. Now, another twist of the story is, he grew his hair out and he was always like, I look like Tom Brady, because Tom Brady had his hair long. Everybody told me that. No, nobody did. Secondly, he was lunchbox. He's like, I'm going to donate this because I have it this long.

Let's just donate it. Locks of love. Yeah. And so what happened? So I shipped it to locks of love and they were supposed to send me a gift certificate saying, oh, we used your hair. And they rejected my hair. They rejected his hair.

Oh, no. Well, we think it got used in the oil spill, right? Yeah, we think they threw it in the ocean. So it helped to pick up the oil. Yeah, it was around the same time in the Gulf. Yeah, but, I mean, I was trying to make a wig out of me, and they didn't want it. He wanted somebody else to have his hair. Like, how cool would that have been?

Someone walking around with my mouth. It had been cool that they needed the hair and were using it. That's what I'm saying. No, no, you were like, I own them. Yeah, that's my hair. That's my hair. Yes, and they wouldn't even accept it. Like, I'm at the grocery store.

I'm like, yo, that looks like my wig, man. All right, the story, though, that you brought to us, which I don't even know if that's good. His story was, if you have your hair grown long, you'll win the lottery. No, that's according to William Daniels. He bought a house with his first winnings and his second one he's going to pay for his wedding.

I mean, not a bad deal. Not a bad deal for him, but I don't know that it was his hair. That's what it's all about right there. That was tell me something good. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care which I'm saying. Yep, that's me.
