But if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit. If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration. It would not be on a calendar. of, you know, the cat just hang in there. Yeah, it would not be. Right, it wouldn't be that. There's a lot of luck.

Listen to thanks, Dad, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to Friday show, Morning Studio. Morning. We'll do our own personal gift exchange later on, so they'll be, you know what that is? Fireworks. Oh. Too-ch-ch-ch-tun. Good and bad fireworks.

But let's do our favorite news this morning. You open up the Internet. like a newspaper. What news story brought you here? Eddie? I've always thought like when I die, what are you going to do? I want to be buried, cremated, throw me in the ocean, whatever. But there's a company in Houston that I saw that can take your remains to space for $3,000.

And for the next couple weeks, they're taking JFK's hair, George Washington's hair, Dwight Eisenhower's hair. I feel like I'm paying $3,000 and my stuff ain't going anywhere. They're just like throwing in the trash and collecting my money. You've got to have a live feed, right, of the thing going up and dropping something. And also, I don't want to pay $3,000 for that. No. You don't? How much is a plot in the cemetery?

When I die, roll me up and smoke me. Coffins are expensive. Roll me up and smoke me. So that's $3,000 to go up into space? Oh, I mean, it says like at least $3,000, you know, could be more. So if it's like only two people, it's probably like $500,000. Maybe. But the more, it's like a Ponzi, or it's like one of those pyramid schemes.

The more people you can get in, the less than it is. All right, thanks, Eddie. Lunchbox, what you got? Usually I bring you stories about hot chicks, but not today, guys. We're talking lottery. The guy that won $2 billion, Edwin Castro, before he came out and revealed who he was, he scrubbed his social media,

and then he took his friends on a getaway to Fiji, and they partied and celebrated his big win before he was known to the world. That's what I'm talking about. He said, guys, you guys have been with me. I am now rich. Let's go. He took like six friends down to Fiji and they just partied it up.

Would you have scrubbed your social media? No. Why did he scrub his social media? That makes no sense. I would say probably so people don't go and find out stuff about him and then use it to go like, I'm your cousin. I know this about you. Less information people have more they can use against you. Oh.

That's a good point. But the less they can use against you. Yeah. Yeah, but that's pretty, I mean, pretty cool that he wanted to celebrate and he wanted to do it in style with his friends. In style, man. He flew him down to Fiji and said, man, I got two. billion. I can't go broke. Would you do that with us? I'd take my good friends. So all of us?

Nah, no, no. No, you guys. No, no. Fair enough. All right, Amy. So there's a mom that made the news because she's charging her family, relatives, guests, anybody that's coming to her Christmas dinner, she's charging them. Respect. Do you like that? I don't like it or not like it, but at least she has a boundary and she's letting everybody know how she feels and what she needs. She says here, quote, it's not cheap feeding people, and it also takes a lot of time to put together a nice meal. The fee, includes a complete dinner with turkey and all the trimmings along with one glass of champagne. Any additional alcohol consumed will be B-Y-O-B.

I think I'd be a little bit annoyed, but I would appreciate the directness and honestness of the approach, not somebody being resentful towards me without letting me know why. Then don't volunteer to host. I don't know if she's volunteered or if they're like, this is the only place we can have it. I don't know that part of the story. Don't have the party. Yeah. Okay.

I hear that too, then don't have the party. And don't go if you're going to pay. I'm not going. You don't have to. Nobody's forcing you to do anything. You know what? I just appreciate somebody being direct. somebody being direct, even if I don't really, if it's not comfortable for me, I still like the directness of any approach.

I think what this story does, and while I wouldn't do this either, but it brings awareness to the money and time that is going into a meal like that. So if you are going to be a guest in someone's home, see what you can contribute. Leave a couple dollars in the plant. Every house I go to, I'll leave dollars in a plant. You don't even money wise, but how can you like help? Can you go to the store and pick up some stuff? So they're not having to buy it all. Clean up.

Can you make sure to bring a thank you gift or something? I had a job washing dishes. I'm not, I hate watching dishes. You're done doing that? I have trauma. I've dish trauma. Oh. Did you make that up so you won't do the dishes?

That's not a thing. You know what? I do too. That's not a thing. I got dish trauma. I used to have, I used to watch dishes for a job. It was disgusting. I have dish trauma.

I refuse to watch dishes anymore. It takes back to a dark place. That's so good. Don't steal my dish trauma. That is so good. Don't steal dish trauma. It's mine. Uh-huh.

Okay, moving on. Okay. A British food artist has created the world's most expensive gingerbread house worth $7.9 million. Excuse me? It's decorated with diamonds. Debbie Wingham 41 made the Dulcang Gabbin inspired gingerbread creation from 33 pounds of flour and 38 pounds of sugar. Wow. The designer and food artist spent two weeks crafting this house, which features rice paper, mannequins, clothes, edible wallpaper, and four diamonds inside.

It's three feet tall, two and a half feet wide. and it looks like the Dolcang Gabonestor in Spain. That's kind of like a waste. The sweet confection displays a loose pink diamond worth 3.9 million and three individual pink diamonds worth 1.25 million. Somebody accidentally eat that. I know you can't eat that. Then you got to wait for them to pass it.

The couple are now designing a ring and a matching earrings set using the diamonds and they will sell them after this house. They take it apart and wash them and then use them. What if you bought the earrings that were on cake, though? All right, that's your news. We've got a big show today. We're doing our gift exchange, which will be super fun. Let's open up the mailbag.

You send an email and we breathe it all the air. It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Hello, Bobby Bones. Last weekend, I was part of a killer bachelor party that ended up going into overtime. The limo driver been booked for three hours, but the other guys wanted to keep the festivities moving along, and they asked him to drive a little bit longer.

He agreed for an additional $250. The party commenced. Here's the problem. I'm the only one that wasn't hammered. I ended up paying the extra cash to the driver. Now all the other guys are playing dumb and acting like they have no clue what I'm talking about. And now I'm out $250. I could consider a wedding gift, but I also think it's a jerk thing for these guys to do to me.

How do you propose I get some of this cash back? Signed, Bachelor Party Pooper. Lunchbox, what would you do here? Look, man, you're at a bachelor party, things happen. But you can just hit them up. I be like, guys, you know we stay in the limo until this time. You have pictures. say, I paid, just give me the money.

Or you're out the money. You had fun at the bachelor party. Did you have fun doing it? Just think of it as life lesson. You had a party. You had a memory. You created. It cost you $250.

Who cares? That's expensive. Well, if everybody said they were jumping in, though, it shouldn't cost you $250. I understand. It shouldn't have, but it did. It's one of those things that's like you're at the bar like, oh, get a round.

You get the next round. Then the person's too drunk to buy the next round. I guess what? You didn't get your round paid for. It happens. I mean, things like this go down all the time. They're still your boys. They're still your friends.

Sometime in life, you're going to get together with them and they're going to pay for something and you're not going to pay for it. And you say, you know what? Let's pay back for when I didn't get money back for the limo. So you wait and let them pay for something and then personally don't pay them back. Right. Yeah. I kind of have piggyback on that idea.

Yeah. Like, let's do a dinner, right? You start the whole thing. Guys, I had so much fun at the bachelor party. Let's go to dinner. Boom. You go. You order the steak.

You order a bottle of wine. You go, go to town. And when it comes for time to pay for it, you go, oh, no, remember guys, I got the limo. Don't just slip out. I'm good, I'm done. Oh, I forgot my wallet. I'll get you back. That's it.

Oh. And there you go. You just got paid back. It's easy. But I feel like you made a point to spend a much money you didn't have to spend by doing the dinner thing. Right. You're not getting the money back. You're just wasted it on like this food.

You probably wouldn't drink. You wouldn't have had it anyway. Yeah, that's a good point. He probably wants the cash. Yeah. Probably it's like for paying bills and stuff. But that's crazy that you wouldn't get the cash from guys like your buddies. I know.

crazy that they wouldn't pay for that. Maybe they were so, maybe they're not playing dumb. Maybe they were so intoxicated. They don't remember exactly. It doesn't matter. Amy, what would you do? I would, I would talk with the, talk to them about it and I would ask for it. And I know that they're playing dumb, be like, hey, this is the situation. This is how it went down. Obviously, here's the bill. I was sober. I didn't make this decision. Look at all the fun you all got to have. Can we make things right? But I feel like he's already done that and that didn't work. Yeah.

I don't know what to do then. I guess you have to eat it. You probably are going to have to eat it. In the form of a steak dinner and wine, you know what I'm saying? I'd Venmo request it. And then when they didn't give it to me, I never talk to them again. What? Oh, wow.

That's it. End of relationship. These must be close friends, though. Exactly. That's why it's even harder for me to do. But you know what? I stand on business. I mean, also you just have to know, like, can't ever trust them when it comes to a money thing.

Yep. Tell their wives. Hey, tell their wives what they did the bachelor party. They don't give you her money. Oh. Blackmail. Bones, that's good. No, it's not.

Hey, guys, do you remember this part of the party? Let's play. If you want to play, let's play. Remember the donkey show? Well, your wife's about you. Whoa, whoa. Exactly. Yeah, that can work. Here's the money.

Yes, exactly. And with interest. That's right. Good luck with that. You're probably not getting it back, though. Sorry, buddy. All right. There you go.

Close it out. We got your email and we ran outside the clothes. Bobby's Mailpack. We have the Yuletide Carolers back in studio. Abby is a member of this group. They're dressed in their Victorian apparel, 1800s. It looks like. Like if somebody was out going, paper, get you news. That would be a newsie. That wouldn't be them. But they kind of remind me of each other. Because it's like old school. And they sing songs. And so they're going to do the song that Abby has like a solo in.

What you think about, I mean, you go to the...

He said, if it was based solely on talent, I wouldn't worry about you, which is really sweet. Yeah. He goes, but there's so much luck involved. And he's like, just give it a shot. He goes, but if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't

Man. Jose in Fresno, California left us this voicemail. Calling to let lunchbox know, really appreciate him constantly talking about the lottery. I hardly ever send my money on that. But I did recently buy a $5. scratch and I won 500 bucks so my kids get a little extra Christmas presents this year.

So shout out to lunchbox. I appreciate you. How does that make you feel? Like, do you appreciate him of appreciating you or are you just irritated? Yeah, I mean, because you look irritated. I'm irritated, but I'm also glad he appreciates me, but when he gives those presents to his kids, he should say from lunchbox. Yeah, from Santa box. Okay. Because without me,

those kids wouldn't get those presents. Here is another voicemail. Hi, I have a morning corny for Amy. What did one snowman say to the other snowman. Hey, do you smell carrots? Thanks. That guy should read books. He's got a good voice. And just like a calming, hey. The joke's funny, but I was lost in a bewilderment of his voice. Like, I should be an audiobook guy. Do you smell carrots? I do. Here's Amy's pile of stories.

Right, saying no to Christmas farties is actually good for your health. It's easy for me then. I'm going to be a lot healthier. No, thank you. What kind of parties? I mean, like, holiday parties, if you've been invited and you're like, oh, you're agonizing, like, oh, I don't want them to be upset. I should probably go. We did that this week. We got invited to Jake O'N, who's a really good close friend of ours.

He had one on Tuesday night, but my scientist and my tooth was killing me. And so I felt guilty for not going and fighting through the pain, but also my tooth. If a tooth or an ear or like a back hurts, it's all you can focus on. Yeah. And so I did feel bad. And I think my wife wanted to go, so I'm sorry. Well, most Americans... You're healthier now, though.

Okay. Most people accept an invitation to an event and then they don't really want to go to, but they think it seems rude to say no. And hosts usually don't mind as much as we think. So if it's better for you to stay home, then opt for that. And that's how it's a win for your mental health. Jake blocked me on Instagram. I didn't show up.

He's so upset. He did not. Yeah. Trust me, I'm no addition to a party. Okay, what else? Okay, so this is something cool for parents. It's called the give list. So your kids are probably creating their wish lists for all the things that they want under the tree.

But you can also require that they also do a give list, which will help them think of things that they would like to give to others, whether it's what gifts are they going to pass out to like family, friends, whatever, or what are they going to look in their closet to donate and give to someone else? Like, I'll take your wish list, but you give me your give list. Right. That's pretty good. Yeah. No, I thought that was actually really good. Google released its top trends of 2023. And this is the stuff that was searched up when it comes to songs.

Like, the number one searched up song is Jason Aldean's try that in small town. Just because the controversy that it had. Yeah. I mean, that's, it wasn't Googled because they were like, I really felt that man. Right. That's a deep song. It's a big controversy, yeah. Right.

That's true. It rocks your face off and also calms you down. I don't know how it does both, but let's go, baby. Let's party. Oh, do you know this song by Stephen Sanchez called Until I Found You? Hum it. Yeah. It's been out for a little bit, though, huh?

No, I wouldn't know from that. Keep going, Amy. We listen to a lot. I don't know why. Yeah. No, my daughter was listening to it, and I thought, this is how embarrassed I was. I was like, oh my gosh, this is so cute.

My six-year-old daughter's into oldies. So I tried to search up what song she's listening to from way back in the day. He looks old, too. He looks like a greasy Elvis. Yeah. But it's a current song. It came out in 2022. We've listened to it for a while.

Yeah. You have your daughter, I have my wife. Yes, basically. That's it, yeah. Okay, the most searched movie was Barbie. I'm not the same age. I'm just saying we both are influenced by somebody younger than us. The most searched movie was Barbie and the most searched TV show was the last.

He lives in a duplex. And he noticed his neighbor, Donald, who's a father of three, been kind of looking tired, worn out. He's like, puts his arm around and says, Donald, man, you're okay? You look tired. And he goes, man, I got three kids and their mom just passed away. And I'm just, it's hard to make ends meet. And he noticed the kids don't have.

I've like winter clothes. So Colin's like, I got to do something. He goes, Donald, I want to help you out. Is it okay if I make an Amazon wish list for your kids and put it on TikTok and see if I can get them some clothes? And he's like, do it. And Colin's thinking maybe he'll get a jacket for each kid. He woke up the next morning hundreds of boxes on his front doorstep for things for the kids. Wow.

That's really cool. Hundreds. That's crazy. And so the kids now have clothes. And he said he's just overwhelmed by all the support. And he said, with all the extra clothing, they're going to have a garage sale. and raise money for themselves. I mean...

That's not true. That's what I would do, but they're going to donate the extras and not profit. Why did you do that? Because I was even okay with that. I was like, good for them. I was going to thank the people on TikTok who bought the person their gift

or their item from the wish list. Yeah, so they made a wish list, got hundreds of boxes, and whatever they're not going to use, they're going to donate to a non-profit. We're not trick us on these. This is the one space I feel safe. Right, man.

Tell me something good. No, no, Eddie, you did the same thing. What I trick? You said, oh, He got tickets to go see the Cowboys. Yeah, the Dallas Cowboys gonna be in the Super Bowl. That's a stupid bit too.

They just take liberty. Thank you. That's a good story. Thank you to everybody. That's awesome. You put it on TikTok. People helped. All right.

Social media is good sometimes. Hey, guys, will you make a wish list for me and put it on TikTok? No. Yeah, we'll make it personally. I wish you wouldn't fart as much. No, no. That's not.

You can't get that off of Amazon. Okay. Thank you. That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care which I'll say.
