Morning. Thomas Redden's studio coming up in just a little bit. But let's do our get-to-know. What's your favorite plan for the weekend? Amy? Oh, it's just organizing my house and getting my kids back. Oh, and then we're finally celebrating my daughter's serve the homeless for her birthday.

I think you should probably elaborate a bit on getting your kids back. To just throw that out there and put it in the middle and move on. Oh, so I have 50-50 custody. So they're Friday to Friday, they're with their dad. And then the next Friday to Friday they're with me. Can they ever come over to your house during the Friday to Friday that they don't have you? They stopped by to get things, but like come over and stay. Like your daughter can drive.

Can you ever just like come over and watch TV and hang out? She doesn't, but she'll come by and get things, but she doesn't stay. Is that a rule? She can't come and like chill? I don't know that we've really established it, but she's just like, okay, I think she wants to go back to where she's supposed to be. I don't know. And so what if you found out, though, during your time with her,

she was going to her dad's house to chill? Yeah, I think that that would, I would be like, hey, what's up? What do we need to do here? There's some chill in here. Yeah, I mean, I'm sure some kids feel that way. And she's 17, so we'd probably give her some of that control. But then also we kind of make plans based on them not being there. Yeah.

Well, that's good. Yeah. Yeah, good luck. I don't want to open that whole can. It's not a can. I mean, I feel like a lot of people are in that situation. And I will say if you are, you know, looking into how you're going to do this, Friday to Friday is amazing. Eddie, favorite plan for the weekend?

I got my curing for adult beverages in. You know, we talked about that. It's called the Bartesian. And it's like it's got capsules in there. And you put it in there, put it in. It's got vodka, tequila, whatever. It came in yesterday. And so I'm excited to try it.

And by try it, I mean, make me some cocktails. Are you going to try like one of each? Is it one of those? Yeah, I came with a sampler of like six different. drinks. But there's no alcohol in the sampler. No. You have to get the alcohol and combine it. Correct. Well, it's got little compartments. One for vodka, one for tequila, one for rum, one for whiskey.

And then you just hit a button, dude, and it makes it. I'm going to have a Manhattan, a whiskey sour, a margarita. You name it. Aren't there a rhymes, though, that say don't do that? What do you mean? Like liquor and snake, don't go skating. No, no, no, no. That's just beer. All the liquors are fine. Beer before liquor, never sicker. See, you don't get them for the rhyme.

Those don't fit, must quit. That's O.J. That's fine. Flashbox? Oh, man, maybe my wife and I go to dinner. The in-laws are in town, so maybe they can watch the kids and we can go to dinner. Have no plans. And I'm sure there's probably a birthday party, so I'll have to go to a birthday party at some point.

They're always birthday parties? Always birthday parties. Every weekend. Birthday party. But at least the birthday parties, they have alcohol. They have the Bartesian. They do not have the Bartesian, but they got beer, wine, cocktails. I mean.

Eller, our dog, comes home tomorrow. We get her back. You want to elaborate on that? Yeah. What's up with that? We have been gone a lot. And so instead of, she would just be at the house and she can't really run in the backyard because Eddie now are building a pickleball court. And so since we were gone and she can't run, there was this farm that does like training at the same time.

So she went there for 11 days. And so we finally get her back tomorrow. They come by and then like walk us through like for 30 minutes, what she's learned. She's already pretty good. We just kind of wanted her to be able to run because she was getting like depressed. not, there were guys out, you know, like the asphalt guys. I didn't know how to do asphalt.

Right, we don't know that. We had to hire asphalt guys, and while they're out there the whole time, Eller can't go out there. The asphalt guys out there. But we're going to learn how to do asphalt for next time. Yes. For our next trickle off of it. For YouTube, though.

We've learned the whole thing. So Ella was at camp for 11 days? Mm-hmm. So what's you going to come back knowing, like how to make a tent? I do nuts. Nuts. Fire. I do it.

Let's open up the mailbag. You send an email. Read it on the air. It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Yeah. Hello, Bobby Bones. My girlfriend of about six months works at a car dealership where her former boyfriend is her manager. It bothers me that she's with her ex every day.

I do pretty well. We've talked about her moving in with me. She only works part-time. It doesn't make that much money. So I guess I could support her until she finds something else. Would it be out of line for me to ask her to quit her job? Sign. Ben the boyfriend.

Yeah, Ben, it would be out of line. Especially if she likes the job. Yeah. Especially if there's no reason for you to think that there's anything going on with her and her ex. It makes you seem wildly insecure. And do you know what's unattractive about a man? And they're wildly insecure. I'm never attracted to men who are wildly insecure.

Ever. Never, not once. I've ever been attracted to a man. It was wildly insecure. Good for you. So I would imagine that they were together when he was. as her manager and since they've broken up and she still is in that job.

You don't know that though. I know, but I don't, if it's the opposite, if all of a sudden she applies for a job to work with her ex-boyfriend, that's problematic. But what if it's her dream job? No, no, there's a lot of those. That probably didn't happen where her ex is the

boss and she goes to apply to work for him. I'm going to bet my bottom dollar that didn't happen. But it definitely could happen where they were together because a lot of people date when they're working together. So if that's the case, There are exes for a reason. Unless she gives you a reason to wonder anything, you just shake the insecurity, man.

And you can't be like, yeah, it's okay. I'll support you while you figure something else out. I don't like that either. It's like, okay, no, I have a job. I can support myself. Let me do my thing. And she'll be like, stop being so freaking insecure. Loser.

I'll go back to my ex. I want it to anyway. You're saying this because they're dating, right? Like, if they're married, no, right? Also, if they get married just to quit her job? Like, if they're married and my... That's her ex? But they date?

My wife's not working with her ex. Your wife wouldn't go get a job working for her ex, but if she had always been working that, you met her. So you get married, you make her quit? Yep. But you were together while they were together? No, man, I don't like it. Why would you want your wife to be hanging out with her ex every day?

Why would you want your girlfriend to be hanging out with her ex? Exactly. Like, you don't want them to, but who cares? Eddie, I'm not attracted you anymore. You are wildly insecure. There are a lot of jobs out there, guys. But if she likes her job and she's always done it since you've known her, you're still going to make her quit?

Okay. Watch them fall in love again. Let's say you love... That's because you're insecure. You love your job and what if your wife you knew? Like you and I. You and I were dating. Okay, say we dated, but we broke up, but you knew, you're, you would, if your wife

asked you to quit, you would? My wife? Yeah. I'd have to. If my wife asked me, I'd ask you. That's a 1950s type stuff there. But if my wife asked me to quit my job... Why would she ask you to quit? No, no, no, that's not the question. No, no, hold on. Oh, that was the question. But she'd let you...

By the way, they didn't date everybody. Hyped better. We're making this up. But you used to date Amy and she was still with you and you guys were fine. But then she marries you, but now you got to break up? Uh-huh. That's the dumbst thing ever heard. Yeah, you're right. I don't think she would do that.

That's unrealistic. But you will. If I started this job and it was my dream job, but my ex-girlfriend Amy works here, she'd be like, no, no, you're not doing that job. Gosh, your dream job, that's, I don't know. I feel like this is, there would be some gray area here. That's tough. You really want your stuff. Bro, let it go.

Let it go. Trust her. Unless she gives you a reason not to trust her. Trust her. Otherwise, you're wildly insecure, and I'm not attracted to you. Me either. There you go. Thank you.

Close it up. We got your email and we read it on the air. Now it's about to close Bobby's mail back. Yeah. Time for the fun facts. Let's go. Fun fact Friday. I'm going to start you off.

I got a whole list. In his second presidential election, both parties picked George Washington as their nominee. He won with 100% of the vote. Wow, that'll never happen again. He's from April 30th to March 4th, 1789 to 1797, which they offered him, hey, you want to be the king? He's like, no, no, no, no, no, no. Why do you think we left there? Wow.

Because me, I'd have been like, you know, that's a good point. I'll be the king until I die. But then you go to a democracy. Fun fact. Amy, go ahead. It would take 19 minutes to fall to the center of the earth. 19 minutes of straight falling? Yeah.

That's how big the earth is? So they think. That's how deep the earth is. Holy crap. When do you come out? the other side. So does that mean that if you keep going in 38 minutes, you come out in like China? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The other 19. You're like, hello. Hey, guys. Whoa. Ah, man, that falling. Imagine it's falling in space. That's not falling. You'd be in the, you wouldn't be in space.

No, in space. I don't sound like people fall. Oh. In movies. Yeah, that's not good. I don't know about that in real life. Eddie? So the first ATM was invented, what, like, oh, a little over 50 years ago. go by a guy named John Shepard Barron. And what he did was he found chocolate bar dispensers. So it's the same size as a dollar bill. And instead of chocolate bars, he would put dollars in there. He would like, that's going to be an ATM machine. And his wife said she couldn't remember six digits because it was going to first be a six digit code.

She's like, no, let's just do four. That's too hard to remember. So that's why they're four digits. Dang, I didn't know that. Never heard that before. Imagine falling off a building, though. You're still thinking of a long time. Even for like seven, eight.

Because I went skydiving. That's terrible. but I knew a parachute. I mean, just, ah, 19 minutes of falling. Yeah, it's not good. And also imagine the first person is trying to get a Hershey bar and all of a sudden they got a $10 bill. Look at that.

It's money. It's magic. All right, lunchbox. I like big butts and I can't out lie. You rather brothers can't deny. When a girl with a itty bitty waist and a big one in your face, you get. That's not how it goes. Smarter.

Okay. That's right. Women with bigger butts are smarter than women with small butts. A study by the University of Pittsburgh and the University of California. found women with bigger butts are smarter because they store omega three fatty acids, which promotes brain growth. They store? Fatty acids in there.

In their butts. Fatty. Oh, wow, wow, wow, wow. Okay. Yeah, careful how you say that. No, is I'm saying. Fatty acids in their, that's just a little player. But that promotes brain growth, which makes the women with big butts smarter.

Yeah, that's interesting. How about guys with, never mind. Okay. human beings have explored less than 5% of the ocean, ocean floor, less than 5%. 95% of the ocean floor completely, completely unexplored. That's crazy. 95% just want to throw that out there. It's a great big yonder.

We have no idea what's going on. All right, Morgan, go ahead. All right, so when the crew of Apollo 10 went around the far side of the moon in 1969, they were unable to receive any type of signal from Earth. Well, the crew reported hearing a strange whistling tune that they described as outer space type music. I have a clip. Sounds outer spacey, didn't it? Do you hear that? That whistle and sound?

That's clear than my cell phone calls. You're telling me that was the moon. That was them up there. That was what they got. That is kind of weird. I'm just telling you. I get on calls right now that aren't that clear. And this guy's doing ASMR out there. On the other side of the moon. Yeah. Well, you think it's done in the studio? He's full pink Floyd up there, dark side of the moon, hearing sounds.

Played again, right? Would you? So that is... That's the whistle he's talking about? Yeah, if you keep listening, there's more, though. It even sounds outer spacey, doesn't it? Do you hear that? That whistling sound? It sounds like... You guys, hey, move over, so we can get that shot.

Stop. The sound, the audio digger? I'm saying what I'm running out of tape over here. Yeah, I guess. We should be more wary of Bambi than of jaws because deer are much more deadly than sharks are as far as deaths go. How? There are two deaths in the U.S. by shark attack. There were...

2023, only two deaths. Deer, 440. Because the car wrecks or what? Anything. Car wrecks? No, you're not like wrestling with a deer. Never know. You're not a deer attack.

Ironman. Eat you. Fun fact, Friday. It's time for the good news. With Amy. Yeah, home it's something good. We got to love it when a first responder just goes like above and above and above and beyond because that's what Anthony Polvino did.

He's a firefighter in Buffalo, New York. And these two teenagers saw this puppy. They got hit by a car. And they brought it to the firehouse because that was the nearest. place that they were like, oh, we can get this puppy some help. The dog ended up losing its leg, had all these injuries, but the puppy recovered. Well, Anthony

decided to adopt a puppy, because they don't know where this dog came from, didn't have a home, and now she's like, the puppy's like a part of the firehouse. You know, shows up the world. Well, lives at the firehouse. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He brings her in. Wait, wait, so does he take the dog in or does it live at the firehouse? Yeah, no, he adopted the puppy full blown,

but brings it to work. Full blown? Yeah. Full blown, man. The whole thing. Anthony's like, I'm the dad, man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I am your old father dog. Is it a Dalmatian? That would be legit.

That would be so cool. I bet you kids don't even get that reference anymore. What do you mean? I thought that was just always. 101 Dalmatians? Oh, no. A firefighter dog, Dalmatian. I just thought like Dalmatians were just firefighter dogs.

A lot. In general. Interesting. Yeah, I guess. Because like you ever see a dog at a fire station? It's going to be a Dalvation, except maybe this one. Not full-blown. Sometimes have.

Do we still feel like Dalmatians are firefighters dogs? I feel in my mind, they are. But that's because how I grew up seeing it, I guess. I don't think I associate that anymore. Really? Yeah, but I'm a kid, you know. I don't ever see a Dalmatian, though. Yeah.

They're so rare. Oh, in general? Yeah. I know, but when you do, you're like, dang, that's crazy. All right, good story. That's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. You can have opinions.

You can have like a strong stance. And then there's your body having its own program. I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist and hosts of the podcast a slight change of plans, a show about who we are and who we become when life makes other plans. We share stories and scientific insights to help us all better navigate these periods of turbulence and transformation. There is one finding that is consistent, and that is that our resilience rests on our relationships. I wish that I hadn't resisted for so long the need to change. We have to be willing to live with a kind of uncertainty that none of us likes.

Listen to a slight change of plans on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I feel like it was a little bit unbelievable until I really start making money. It's Financial Literacy Month, and the podcast, Eating While Broke is bringing real conversations about money, growth, and building your future. This month, hear from top streamer Zoe Spencer and venture capitalist Lakeisha Landrum-Pierre as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up. If I'm outside with my parents and they're seeing all these people come up to me for pictures,

it's like, what? Today now, obviously, it's like 100%. They believe everything, but at first it was just like, you got to go get a real job. There's an economic component to communities thriving. If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they fail. And what I mean by Phil is they don't have money to pay for food.

They cannot feed their kids. They do not have homes. Communities don't work unless there's money flowing through them. Listen to Eating While Broke from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. When you listen to podcasts about AI and tech and the future of humanity, the hosts always act like they know what they're talking about and they are experts at everything. Here, the Nick Dick and Poll Show, we're not afraid to make mistakes. What Cougler did that I think was so unique. He's the writer-director.

Who do you think he is? I don't know. You mean, like, the president? You think Canada has a president. You think China has a president. Love a Rousette. God, I love that thing. I use it all the time.

I wrap it in a blanket and sing to it at night. It's like the old Polish saying, not my monkeys, not my circus. Yep. It was a good one. I like that saying. It is an actual Polish saying. It is an actual. Better version of Play Stupid Games, win stupid prizes.

Yes. Which, by the way, wasn't Taylor Swift who said that for the first time. I actually thought it was. I got that wrong.

She just dropped the ice cream in my chair. I feel like you'd be kind of funny if we shamed her on the nationwide radio show. So thank y'all. No, good day.

Bye. That's like that day's going pretty good. That was a date. Yeah, that's awesome. Second date. That's really cool. ball and remove by that guy. It just like that date's going pretty good. Here is

Chris from Pittsburgh. I just wanted to say that I finished my first ever marathon. You guys were a big part of it. I listened to you guys every time I ran and I listened to the show the entire time I was running the marathon. Thanks for what you do. Love the show. I appreciate that. When I'm a runner,

music doesn't quite do it nor do my legs or brain or heart or body because I hate it. Nothing does it. nothing does it. I can get on the treadmill and podcast a little bit, but then I end up remembering that I'm running and then I hate it. I hate running. I'll walk for an hour because I can read while I walk. Can't read while I run. If I can read while I run, I'll just say, I don't like to read anymore. I'd probably quit that too. But yeah, good luck. Or good job, dude. That's a marathon's crazy. Amy did a marathon once. I did once. She won. And that's about it.

The whole thing? Yeah. Wow, Amy. She beat the guy from Africa and the Kenyan. Yeah, I remember that guy. Actually, I was 3,500 potato potatoes, what I say. Here's Amy's pile of stories. I have a collector's item for you to buy, Bobby. I'm ready to collect it. Sylvester Stallone is selling off 11 of his watches.

Yeah, I know I saw this. There's no way. It's like the most expensive, one of the most expensive watches ever. Yeah, so he has a Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime, and apparently it's never been touched, and it could sell for more than $5 million. You can't wear that. And he has not.

It's like art to him. He bought it for 2.5 so he's doubling. I mean, I'm like, wait, these are the kind of investments we need to get in. Yeah, except for you have to invest $2.5 million. Other than that part, if you can invest, as Ray would say, 2.500 or $2.5,000. But that's crazy. And you get a watch and you can't wear the watch. Why would you buy a watch if you can't wear?

Same reason you buy a piece of art, I guess. But I don't buy pieces of art. Or you buy. You don't wear art. You can hang it. But you have to just treat it like art. This particular one, it's the most. complicated wrist watch ever made.

And I've been watching some YouTube videos on watches and some of these companies and how it is so intricate and it takes them like forever. There's only so many they can make. And did you know Rolex is a nonprofit. I did. I did know that. From this show. I learned that on this show too.

Yeah. Yeah. No, it's a crazy watch. And I guess the real reason you get it is because you can. Yeah. Why not? Something he collects. And he said, hey, I wasn't going to covet and keep it forever.

That's not my personality. I like to share things. No, actually, I said, I wasn't going to cover it and keep it forever. I would share things. Sell it for double, which is crazy. Mother's Day is on Sunday, so do not forget. Like, this is your warning. And if you're last minute, like, thinking of things to go do,

there's a lot of stuff you can do that doesn't cost any money that will be really special for mom. Like, putting together, like a gratitude jar of all the things you're thankful for. Hey, mom, gratitude. It's me, Sylvester. Exactly, guys. It's really easy. You just get, like, a cute jar. That's cool.

I suck an impression. Cut up a bunch of. pieces of paper and have your kids write stuff down and you write stuff down and put it in the jar. And she can just, if she's having a bad day, she gets to go into the jar and see what her kids are thankful for. That wouldn't be good for me to get that jar. I'd look at them all the first day. It's like candy in the house or chips.

I have no moderation. I'd be like, I want to read everything good about me. One year, one of my friends did that for me for my birthday. And she's a therapist. So it's kind of fitting that she came up with this idea. But she reached out to even some of my friends that she didn't know and had them write it down or she wrote it down for. them whatever they said and then it is i do dip into the jar from time to time but i've read them all yet no i read them all i've read them all at this point now but i didn't read them all that night

yeah my wife gave me a sticky pad when we like first got engaged of little notes read them all like 10 minutes and then wait explain this because this sounds cute it was a sticky pad of notes and she wrote a little note on each of them like something she liked about me or loved about me and i just she's like same kind of deal if you're having a bad day do this this is like three years ago and i guess i've had a real bad day because i read them all in like 10 minutes okay i don't know I think my day was that bad. I was just interested in what she had to say. All right, what else? Luke Bryan was on Jimmy Kimmel, and he talked to him about why he falls a lot.

I mean, I'm kind of, I'm a, I'm a six-two, you know. I'm up there trying to do Michael Jackson moves in too big of a frame. And when you add water to a stage and slick cowboy boots, you go down hard. Yeah, Luke's a big old boy. Oh, yeah. Tall. Pretty athletic, though. But yeah, the cowboy boots will get you every time.

Planet of the Apes, that new kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is out. I guess today, movie mics over here. That thing looks awesome. I love the Planet of the Aves movies. Yeah, I'm going tonight. One of the most underrated franchises. Is it underrated? Yeah. Because I really like it. I guess I don't look at the rates.

I just, I've always liked all the Planet of the Aves movies. So they're calling it the best film from the Planet of the Apes. It's Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes in theaters now. I saw The Rotten Tomatoes was already about 90%. That's really good. Yeah. And so check it out. Go watching the theater.

because you're a big theater nerd I love it. This is probably one of those where you think that you have to watch in the theater to get the full effects. Yeah, the big action. You have to see it on the big screen. If you guys watch any of the Planet of the Apes? Oh, man. Is that what I'm saying? Oh, my God, it's awesome. They're so good.

Even the first, I mean, the first one. Doesn't the Ape like? And Walbergs in some of them? That was a different iteration. Oh, that one was awesome, too, the old ones. No, Charlton Heston? That's really. That's really amazing all the versions.

So, yeah, Planet of the Apes. They're all awesome. This one's like a dictator of the play. Like he's running the planet. Yeah, there's a good monkey, bad monkey. I love good and bad monkeys. Fighting against each other trying to live with humans. And they match their lips.

Okay, okay. Kingdom of the planet of the apes. It'd be awesome. Only in theaters. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With lunchbox. Stay at home, it's something good.

Nine-year-old Kelvin Elvis Jr. is walking with his dad. He's like, all right, let's go to the coffee shop. He's got his dollar in the pocket that he got for making good grades. and he sees a homeless dude sitting on the sidewalk in his PJs. And he walks up to homeless dude. He's like, here, would you like my dollar so you can get something to eat? Turns out the dude wasn't homeless.

He's a multi-millionaire. He was evacuated from his condo because there was a fire alarm. So he was just sitting there having a cup of coffee waiting for him to be able to go back in the building. It makes sense when you say PJs because I thought, what a homeless guy has a different outfit to put on for bed? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And so he sits down with the nine-year-old. this guy Matt sits down with the nine-year-old and they talk and he's like, hey, man, I own a sporting good store. I'm going to give you a shopping spree.

Dang. So the nine-year-old got to go on a shopping spree. His dollar turned into a shopping spree. That's pretty cool. Who is the millionaire? His name is Matt Busbis. He's the owner of a sporting goods store in Baton Rouge. That's cool.

That's a cool story because the kid was given a dollar to somebody who needed it. That the dude was in literal PJs. Like maybe throw some shorts on. I don't know. No, no, it was the fire alarm went off. He had to get out. Fire, fire, fire, fire. But that parent had to be proud.

Would your kids have done that? Probably not. Last dollar? Nah. Maybe, because my, I think my kids, they think about it. I think they have good hearts, but I also think, Mom will see me giving this dollar, and it's going to earn me five. Or a shopping spree.

Or a shopping spree. Good story. That's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good.
