It was like a Garth World Tour jacket. That's right. He just loves some Garth Brooks. Here he is. Our video producer, producer, producer. Guys, look, I am a genius. My wife has been stressing out on the weekdays. She's like, the kids don't have a breakfast.

We're always in her. hurry. So what did I do? I made 100 pancakes yesterday and I froze them all. So I said, look, just go to the freezer, grab five or six pancakes, put them in the microwave, and take them. How long do you have to microwave a frozen pancake? A minute and a half. Do they still taste as good? I don't know. I like the fact that you made a hundred. I don't know. You made so many pancakes. You ever see that in the office where Michael Scott's making French toast? And it's all the way stacked up when they're starting new paper. That's what that sounds like to me. So, but how long do you take you to make a hundred pancakes?

So it took me about an hour and a half. I mean, once the batter's done, it's like, whoop, boop, flip, flip, you're done. You do about three or four at a time on a skillet. I mean, total dad hack there, dude. That is awesome. Next up from Austin, Texas. We don't really understand his methodology when it comes to haircuts

because he will go, it seems like an entire year before he gets one. Here he is, the lunchbox. What up? I was just wondering if it would be weird to buy a celebrity, a baby gift. because Cam and Leroy, they met on the challenge on MTV. Leroy was from real world. She was from, Are You the One? They get on the challenge.

They date, broke up, get back together. Now they're living together, and they have a baby, and they announce it on Instagram. And I'm like, man, would it be all right for me to send them a baby gift? Do you know how to get the gift to them? No, I figured I would just DM them and be like, hey, man, what's your address? I'm going to send you a baby gift.

Can you imagine? Somebody's like, what's your address? Well, because I met Leroy one time in Vegas when I was there to see Brittany. He was working the concess. and we got a picture together. I've never met Cam, but this is... The concession. He was working at the show?

And Britney Spears? Yeah, the Britney Spears show. He was working the concession stand? Yeah. Is that like a charity thing? No, no, no. Like, that's where he... That was his job because you had to have jobs where you could just leave it any time to go do the challenge

for two months at a time. So it was just a way to make money. He's working as a concession. He probably like a baby gift. He needs a baby gift. How many followers does he have? Because you said celebrity, so I thought it was like somebody I just didn't know, right? Oh, yeah, yeah.

How many do you think? think he has. Oh, I bet she has a million. With a million followers, you shouldn't have to work at a concession stand. No, no, he doesn't work there anymore. Oh. Yeah. Oh, there you go. No, that's not him. Oh, Leroy. He had, that's not him either.

How many Leroy's do you know? I don't follow him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let me, let me Google Leroy. I'll come back to you, Lusbox. All right, unless you want to find it now. Can you have in the next five seconds? Oh, yeah, yeah, here we go. Go ahead. Oh, there it is. There it is. here we go.

Oh my goodness. There we go. Oh, man. He has 267,000 followers. He said millions. And then he built it. Like, oh, my God, you got 267,000. There he is, man.

I message him and say that. And you have a blue check mark, so maybe he'll think. Yeah, and he has a blue check mark. Okay. Hit him up. Oh, he's no longer doing concessions. No, I told you. He's not doing that anymore.

He works at a barbershop. He owns a barbershop now. I'm over it. I'm over it. I'm over it. Next up, she always has some. She brings her own jar full of stuff. And sometimes it used to be green juice.

and I don't know what it is now. It doesn't look like you got it from a Starbucks or anything. No, it's my iced coffee. I make it at home. She makes it at home. It's an iced coffee mixed with almond milk. Here she is. Amy, Amy, what's up?

Okay, so we got a new pet. And I didn't know anymore about it. Okay, I go one month that it dies. I don't even know what it is. No, this one is going to evolve. Evolve? So, technically we're starting off with one pet, Buddy the Caterpillar, and we're going to end with Buddy the butterfly.

How did you get a caterpillar in the house? Came home. My son came home from school. with a jar, I guess every student got their own caterpillar, and he handed it to me and said, Mom, I need you to put this somewhere where it's not going to die. And I was like, okay. You're just leaving in the house?

I put it on top of the dining room shelf. Is it in something or is it in a crawl? Yeah, it's in a jar with like a cloth net and we put leaves and sticks in there. Why not put it back in? I don't. It's part of the metamorphous. No, no, but why not just let it live?

What am I supposed to do? It's part of the school project. Tell your son. It turned into a butterfly and flew off. Oh, so now I'm the rebel parent that frees the caterpillar, and he gets a zero. That's not rebel. It's called good human.

Well, listen, I don't know. But Buddy the caterpillar is going to start making its cocoon soon. We shall see. Will buddy die, guys? Absolutely. Yeah, for sure. Before it becomes a butterfly? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Raymond, hit me up. From Mountain Pine, Arkansas. He's 6-1. He loves Arkansas sports. And if he gives you a betting pick, you should probably listen. Bobby Bones. That's okay. That's good.

That was good. Yeah, that's okay. I'm too, I'm saying it right now. I'm two weeks, no sugar. Wow. Two weeks. I love sugar. It's my favorite. And the whole world. I don't care that much about salty or savory. I love all candy, donuts. You name it. I love it. I'm two weeks without it. And here's what has happened. I've seen it fall. I've seen my face get skinnier. I've seen my face get skinnier. I've lost four pounds. Wow, man. Just by living normal with no sugar. I'm using the bathroom better. What does that mean? I don't go, sometimes I go to the bathroom for days. Oh, yeah.

Well, that's, is that one of the reasons why you're doing it, though, for that? Who knows? So anyway, I'm back tomorrow. I'm back sugar tomorrow. All right. What are we getting donuts? Can you imagine? I would go so hard.

I got two modes. Not at all or all the way hard. Right now, no sugar two weeks. I didn't think it could be done. People are doubting me in my whole life. Two things I said I could do. Not eat sugar, beat up a kangaroo. You heard it here first.

All right. There we go. All right, let's start the show. Glad you guys are here. All right, it is time to open up the mailbag. You send an email and we read it on the air. It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Hello, Bobby Bones.

I need your advice. My husband's son has been living with us for almost three years now. It was only supposed to be two weeks. Oof. His son barely works, doesn't help, or even offer to pay bills or pay for food or anything. He's a grown man in his 30s. My husband and I are recently married. I'm in my 40s.

He's in his 50s. my husband has mentioned to him several times about him needing to go, but it just hasn't happened. And every time I mention it, it turns into an argument. I don't know what to do or how to go about it. Any advice would be appreciated, signed, frustrated wife. Yeah, that's a tough one. Kids that aren't yours, that are now yours, even though they're adult. That's a tough one.

And lazy bums, that's a tough one. Eddie? Man, so when you get married. You're a lazy bomb sometime. No, no. When you get married and your spouse has a kid and they're your stepson or stepdaughter or whatever, aren't they kind of like your kids and can't you just make decisions as if they were your kids? I get it.

But how would you treat? Because I had a stepdad, right, that came in. But I was still at the age where he had to pay money or I wouldn't be able to survive. Right. I was a kid. Right. He had to take kids. This is an adult.

How old is this guy, kid? This is adult. He says, grown man in his 30s. Wow, that's what I'm saying. But see, what I'm saying is if this is your kid and he's 30 and he lives with you. Is that kid or kid? No, if it's your kid, what would you do? You'd kick him out.

You would kick him out. So then you have to have the conversation with your husband now and say, hey, look, I'm treating him as he's my kid. I wouldn't do this to my son. He wouldn't be able to live with us. So we've got to get him out of you. He's got to grow his own legs and go live in the world. Amy? Well, I would have my husband.

handle it. Yeah, me too. I'd have my husband handle it. Oh yeah, you know what, me too then? You know what? Husband handle it. The easier solution. You know what?

As much as he's got to, you know, put the press on his kid to get out the house, you've got to put the press on him. Because you can do that. You can put the press on your husband. If you put the press on the kid, it's not good for the relationship. Obviously, there's arguing.

But what you can do is kind of put the screws to your husband who can put the screws to his kid. You have the right to do that to your husband. It's obviously uncomfortable for everyone when you do it to the kid. kid. So you got to do it. And then he's got to do it to the kid and he's got to get the crap out of there. Right? Yeah. Kids got to go. He's an adult. He's got a kid. Oh my good. Not a kid. Not a kid. Adult man. Go. All right. Good luck with that. If you want to email us, Morgan, what do they do?

Mailbag at bobbybones. All right. Thank you guys. We've got your email and we've read it on air. Now it's about to close Bobby's mailbag. Yeah. It's time for literally. I think it's my favorite segment of the week. It's one of them. Easy Yeah. Yeah. The Fun Fact Friday is always solid. Let's go. Fun Fact Friday.

All right, I go first. Human teeth are the only part of the body that cannot heal themselves. Teeth are covered in enamel, which is not a living tissue. Oh. The rest of us, the skin grows back together. We can't full on starfish and grow back an arm. But if you've got to cut or something, it heals itself. It's amazing.

Yeah. The human body's crazy. We take it for granted because it's all we know and it's what we have. But teeth are the only part of the body that cannot heal themselves. And I guess that's why when you lose a tooth, like your adult tooth, it's done. You literally lost it if you can't find it. All right. So that's me.

Let's go over to Amy. Steve Jobs named his company Apple, partly because it would appear in the phone book before his previous employer Atari. Oh, that's good. Well, my enemy growing up, his name's Calvin. My name's Bobby. And I wanted to be before him, is Bobby versus Calvin alphabetically? Same. Same.

Same thing. Something I knew growing up, just in case. Thinking ahead. Eddie? Yeah, there's one item in your pantry that does not expire. Let me guess. Oh, go ahead. Ever.

Arm and Hammer. Nope. I mean, maybe, but no. I guess you can't eat that. No, this is something in your pantry that you can eat. Oh, like a little twinkie? No way. And it'll never, ever go bad.

Ever? Ever. Ever. Ever. Never. It can't be true. We just haven't lived long enough for you go bad. It can't be true.

Oh, it's true. What is it? It's honey. Honey does not expire. It does not go bad unless it is exposed to moisture. So like if you get some water in your honey jar or whatever, then it'll start spoiling a little bit. But man, honey, you can keep it for the rest of your life. It's good.

Good enough. I had no idea. Isn't that crazy? Morgan. Dead skin cells are a main ingredient in household dust. Humans shed around 200 million skin cells each hour. and it has to go somewhere. You know what?

There's a lot of. Bommet. Skin cells and sperm. That was also my band in high school. Skin cells and sperm. But it's like in sperm, it's like there are 10 million sperm that come out. It's like skin cells.

You lose 200 an hour. And that turns into house dust? Uh-huh. The sperm does? And a heck of a rock band. Huh. Ray, final one. What do you got?

Yeah, so back in the day in the 1920s, they used to call each other J's. And that meant idiots? Js? It was very common. It was a slang term. So when people jay-washed, They then name that jaywalking, so it's idiots walking.

Wow. That's cool. Fun fact Friday. It's time for the good news. With Amy. Yeah, I'll make something good. Researchers have found that a one-hour walk in nature reduces stress-related brain activity. Now, the amygdala, that's the part of your brain that processes stress, and it has been shown to be less activated in people who live in rural areas, compared to,

to those that live in big cities, hinting the potential benefits of nature. So a one hour walk in some green and some trees outside is what can be good for you. You're always stricken people are honking the horn everywhere. That's in New York. Hong, honk. They're always honking to me. Two blocks over. I hurt my neck.

It's always turning around going, not doing something wrong? Or like, hey, I'm going to mug you. That was the old lot, too. Everywhere I went out. Yeah. So is the neighborhood, is that nature? I think you need to go in some trees. Like what are there trees and stuff?

Depending on your neighborhood. If you can see a tree, just look at the one tree as you walk, and I think you pretty much got a coach. For an hour. All right, that's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. This can be the championship round of easy trivia. It's the easiest trivia game in the whole wide world.

We can't believe it. Eddie, by the way, a four-time champion who is wearing the TR right now, because that's who you are. The champion wears a tiara? Yes. Lunchbox has four wins. well. Wow.

Out of nowhere. I can't, I mean, I was down at zero and I thought, man, I should just throw it to the season's over so I have a chance. But guess what? I never quit. You never quit. Never quit. Never quit. Never quit.

That's that guy right there. Wow. Okay. So it's a very easy trivia game. Amy, the category is colors. What arch of colors usually appears in the sky after a rainstorm? A rainbow. Correct.

Lunchbox is the champion, and we'll wear the crown. It's not wrong. We'll wear the Tierra. Which, by the way, no one ever suspected that to happen. I mean, even he was going to quit. I was ready to quit. The question is, which Disney character sings, how far all go? I am not 100% on this.

He says Tarzan Lunchbox, how do you feel about his answer? I have no idea. I've never heard that song in my life, so I have no idea. How far will go? If it's Tarzan, you'll move on to the next category, which is pop music. Oh, oh. If it's not Tarzan Lunchbox takes the tiara from your head. Oh, my goodness.

It's going to be a scene. Now, am I going to have him placed it on my head or I'm going to take you. I'm not placing it on his head. I think the loser should place it on the winner's right. They do that in Miss America. We don't even know that you've lost, but you should place it on his head. did not do that with Amy. I'm not doing that with lunchbox. That's a disgrace.

That's what happens when it's turned over. The crowns are over. New rule. We evolve. That's right. Will you place it on his head if you're wrong? If I have to, I have to. Are you saying yes? Do I need to? Yes. Yes. Yes. Okay. So. Oh my gosh.

That's so dumb. If it's Tarzan, Eddie moves on and we go to Lunchbox's weakest category music. If it's not Tarzan, Lunchbox wins and is the champion. How far will go? The answer is. Oh, on it. Yeah! I did it!

I did it! I did it! Put the camera on me, you idiot! Put the camera on me! How do you feel right now wearing the tiara? It's great. It's heavier than I thought. Man, I'm going to have to move Eddie's water bottle out of my way because my tiara is going to have to sit right there.

I'm just put it around your water bottle. Oh, man. Well, we're going to go have a moment with your family. They're here lunchbox. Oh, yeah. Come on my dad! Here they come. No, they're not here.

No, they're not here. What's the question? Okay. Can you eat expired cake mix or bake a cake. If it's two years expired. Ooh, that's a long time. But I don't know. Cake mix is to me just dust or I've never made a cake.

I never myself baked a cake from scratch. Well, it's not just dust. It's like, but that's what it looks like. I don't know what's in there. So can that expire? Well, the box has an expiration date, but we looked it up because my daughter wanted to bake a cake that was two years expired from our pantry. And it says, totally fine.

The only thing, it's not going to harm you, but it may not just taste as good. Because some of the flavor, I guess, evaporates out. I didn't try it. Oh, you didn't. You may not touch in that thing. So you can do it, but it may not be as quality as it would have been two years ago. Right. Some of the freshness, the flavors that would stand out more to you or they'll diminish over time.

You guys ever bake cake? Never. Absolutely. No chance. I love doing it. I mean, think about how proud you are when you're done baking a cake. You're like, I did that. I have things that I feel that way about.

Like if you mow the yard and you crush it. Yes. We'd eat an edge. That is funny. Yeah, that to me is that, but not baking cake. cake. Because the challenging part is the frosting. Baking the cake, no big deal. When you put that frosting on and you want it to look like the store does it, it's so hard.

Here's Amy's pile of stories. Women have revealed the cars that scream douchebag to them. Oh, I'm always scared on this one. I don't even want to say what kind of car I have, but I told my wife the day, I was like, I can't drive this car much longer. Really? Yeah. Yours isn't on here.

But it's not. I told her I can't because I feel like people don't even let me in in traffic because of a kind of car drive. Oh, that's not good. When I bought it, when I bought it, I was like, this is a DB car. It was the only car on the lot. It was just, you can't get a car on a lot because everything's like, oh, we got to order. It's eight months, three months or, and, uh, yeah, I feel like,

like, my would be number one on that list. People out they go, your car is the craziest, coolest car ever seen in my life, or they're like, oof. They do? They say that to you? Oof. I had a friend who went to dinner with the other night. He was like, that's the coolest car ever seen in my life.

And I was like, you want to buy it? Because I feel like I look like a DB. Do I look like a DB in it? No. No, not at all. Really? You promise? I promise.

I told my wife, I got traded in immediately. Would you think any less if a woman was driving it? No. Okay. It's fine. It's me. Read me the list here. Okay, well, jacked up trucks.

I mean, that's just any brand. It depends how jacked up. Scoobo Steve walks the line. Where it's not DB, Scoooooo Steve? Thank you. It is so close, though. Well, yeah, mine's factory. lifted. It's only two inches, so not too much.

And it's also just a large truck as well. Yes. What is that? It's a Toyota Tundra. It's cool. I like Scoob's truck. I like your car, too. I think you're like Batman. Okay. Really? Yeah, I think it's a really cool car. Okay, got to get a room. I'll take one with them. What about Scoob's truck? Do you think it's DB?

No. It's borderline. I agree with you. No, it looks cool. I like it. Yeah, well, the color helps too. Loud is on here, too. Oh, yeah. If you got like, back in the day, people have glass packs on those trucks. Anyway. Yes.

Okay. Oh, man. That's awful. Okay, so big jacked up trucks. Yeah. The loud one, any loud exhaust. Most BMWs, Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Hummer. Go walk through these again.

After the truck, it was. Loud exhaust. Okay, then it was. Most BMWs. I don't think a BMWs, and I don't make, it's early in the morning, so I want to say the D word anymore. I don't think it's that DB. Yeah, I don't really get it.

Like a two, maybe a two-seater that's crate. But now I feel like I see a BMW. I'm like, that's a safe. I don't know. I just don't see it and scream that to me. Maybe the convertible ones. Those kind of screaming a little bit. Unless a woman's driving.

I like, I don't know. I guess I'm just not convinced that's a DB car so much. What's the other one? Hummer. Hummer, yes. For sure. Especially like an H-1, like the big one. Oh, those look so cool.

They do look cool, but it's like you don't. It's an army vehicle. I know. Are you in body, full body gear in there? I have a friend that has one and he's not. a deep bag, but it is kind of questionable. Ferrari, I don't see enough to have a feeling about it. Yeah, and Lamborghini.

It's like, who has those? Maybe once every four or five months. Man, I think I see them all the time, but it ends up being a corvette. I'm always like, ooh, there's a land boat. No, that's a corvette. Once we saw a Bentley in my neighborhood and it was a Hyundai. Genesis. Genesis, that's right.

We were like, somebody's got a, oh, my goodness. Mike and I were, like, looking out the window, like, taking pictures of it. Like, who's here? Who's here? They got a Bentley. And then we walked out as a Hyundai Genesis. Hey, we just saw Ferrari. Who?

Vince Neal. Oh, yeah, it was yellow. Yeah. I made a joke about my car, because I don't have a Ferrari. I made a joke when I got up on the opera stage, and I was like, yeah, I pulled in my Midlife Crisis Mobile and parked up beside Vince Gills. Or not Vince Gilles, Vince Neal. Vince Neil.

Vince Neil, not different dude. All right, what else you got? So we've talked about quiet quitting in the pile before, but now quiet firing is a story. Quiet quitting. Could you read define that for our listeners because I don't know that they heard that? Well, it's where you just kind of slack off at your job. Like you decide that you're done. You don't full-blown.

But you don't really quit. You don't really quit. You just quit giving any effort. Right. You don't really care. And now there's quiet firing? Yeah. And it's the, your boss may do something like not give you a raise, pass over you for a promotion, overburden you with busy work, give you a poor review, change your role abruptly or purposely give you tasks that you don't like in hopes that you'll just quit.

You guys don't get any of that. None of that happens to you guys. Quiet firing. I would like to find more of that for you. But I don't do any of that to you. Well, now we know if that happens to us, you're quietly firing us. All the once you get all five minutes. I'm like, is he trying to give me to quit?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And finally. Well, Luke Bryan is going to be hosting the CMA Awards this year, alongside Peyton Manning.

I don't think it's like keep it so you can stare at. And he's like, keep it because it's probably worth something for a minute. Because it won't have the value if he continues to break other people's records. Moves up one third second. But it will always have some value. But I think what he meant was, hey, you've had a rough one. Take this ball, sell it. And here, I'll sign some more for you so he can have it.
