On a recent episode of the podcast, Money and Wealth with John Hobriant,
I sit down with Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money.
What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth to the people when they're no longer here?
We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth,
starting with the mindset shifts.
Too many of us were never ever.

This is Julian Edelman, host of Games with Names.
On our latest episode, we got comedian Blake Anderson from Workaholics and The Hilarious This is Important Podcast.
Let's go!
We did beat them in improv.
You had an improv against the team?
Yes, we would pull up their schools, would be there with signs for us.
It's competition.
What you would win is a bottle of gold slager.
James Fester threw it out of a van because he didn't want us drinking it.

Come on, Bobby.
Transmitting.
Good morning.
Welcome to the show.
We got a good one.
Let me say this first.
Morning studio.
Morning.
Let me go over to Indiana, where on the phone is.
fire chief Robert wanting to talk about
tell me something good that you heard on the show.
Hello, Fire Chief Robert. Welcome to the program.
Hey, Bobby, how are you doing this morning?
Doing pretty good. Thank you for calling. What would you like to say?
Well, we were sitting out in a debate
because I were in the fire station and was listening to Amy
tell me something good and we just caught the tail end of it.
I think you were talking about our fire department
where we went on a run where a little 10-year-old
alerted to her family that there was a fire there.
We got there. We were able to make a grab of two guinea pigs
and save them. And it was just
It was pretty awesome to hear our names mentioned up there because of the bravery of this little 10-year-old.
That was just pretty awesome.
I just wanted to say thanks for that.
Wait, that was your fire department?
Yeah.
Y'all saved Smoors and Scarlet?
Yes, yeah, Smoors and Scarl.
Ironic name for one of them, obviously.
That's that.
Hey, come on.
That's so cool.
That is so cool.
The story, if you missed the story, a little girl in Indiana saved her family when a fire broke out in their garage.
Her name was Anna.
She's 10.
She was getting ready for school.
There was a strange noise coming from the girl.
garage. And so the family
were like, oh, crap,
but they didn't grab their pets. Luckily,
Huntertown Fire Department, and that's
where you're from, right? Fire Chief Robert?
That is correct. There we are.
Yeah, is this the chief? Like, at the end, I shared a quote.
Robert Boren. This is Fire Chief Robert Bourne from the story.
We got somebody famous on the phone. Wow.
I loved your quote of just reminding people
that if someone senses something's not right,
like lean into that. I'm paraphrasing. But, you know,
know what I mean. Oh yeah, definitely. I mean, it's amazing. Sometimes we want to blow things off.
And sometimes our children are more intuitive about what's going on around us than what we are.
So we just need to listen up and pay attention and everyone can get out safe.
Did you know this story made the news?
So I put it on Facebook and then it kind of made local news, but I didn't know it made national news.
And all of a sudden, I'm listening to Bobby Bones. And I'm like, holy cow, that's us.
Yay. This is awesome. Hey, how about this? Who was on this call? How many, like, what
guys, we're out there saving s'mores and...
Scarlett. Actually, the crew that's working today,
ironically, so there's
a big group of us, and there was about two
other departments that joined us also, so
it was a big group effort. Well, how many people are in your
crew that are working today that were there?
Today, there's actually five of us.
Okay, here's what we're going to do. The five that are
there with you right now, you plus five,
we're going to send you guys some Pimp and Joy
stuff to your firehouse,
because we just appreciate what you do, that you listen
to the show, that you went in and saved these
animals, what you do every day? Like, that's
not let that be lost too.
Like you guys are risking your lives.
So we're going to send, we're going to put you on hold.
Yeah, we'll send some hats.
And just appreciate you.
We'll put you on hold, get your address and send some stuff at the fire station.
How's that?
Well, we, thank you so much.
This is awesome.
We really appreciate it.
Thanks for sharing the story.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Like, I feel like somebody famous called in.
I know.
Honestly, this is cool.
When Tim McGraw calls us, let's be honest.
Right.
Because if we tell me something good, when we do it, tell me something good.
Like, obviously, we really are shouting and you see,
out, but the fact that the people were shouting out actually hear it, that's awesome.
Now remember after the tell me something good, though, we question whether it's worth going
in to save a guinea pig. I remember that. You remember that?
Well, let's ask him. How did you feel about that? He's here. Let's ask him.
What are you like a guinea pig? And rabbits, too.
So at first, we were like, man, we don't know if there's much hope, but you know, we still have
to try because if anything, the family can have closure if it wasn't successful,
when we found them, when we found out that they were alive, the tears of joy that were running down these little girls' face,
the dad, like, hooting and hollering and just screaming at the top of his lungs out of excitement.
You know, it might just be guinea pigs with someone else, but for that family, it was everything.
And that's why we do what we do.
It's not the small things or the minute things.
It's because for someone, that's a major thing.
So we have to do whatever we can for anyone at all times.
Dang, I wish I wouldn't question that is.
Right. I know. And that wasn't saying, no, I just wonder if the guys were like, we've got to go off a guinea bag. Excuse me,
course. Well, yeah, he just said they were like, ooh, but also, I got to say, is that the first time y'all have ever administered oxygen to a little tiny animal like that?
We've done it for cats and dogs, but we've never, never done it for guinea pigs.
Love it. Well, let us say it's been a real treat, real honor to hang out. Do you still have the goatee? I'm looking at pictures of you right now. You have a cool fireman goateeee. You still have that?
Oh, yeah, of course. I can't lose that. I'm a firefighter.
I agree. Like when I see a firefighter, he better have some facial hair or I'm worried.
All right. Hey, appreciate you. Thank you for doing what you do every day.
We're going to put you on hold real quick, Ray, and we'll get his information.
There he is. So tell me something good comes in life.
Hope you have a great morning. Thank you for calling.
Thank you. You too.
All right. How cool is that?
I love it. That's so cool.
All right. Time to open up the mailbag.
You send an email and we read it on the air. It's something we call.
Bobby's Mailback. Yeah.
Hello, Bobby Bones.
So my husband and I had an argument last night,
and I wanted to get your opinion on it.
The argument started after I told him I wanted to join a little golf club by our house,
which we just moved into.
He didn't understand why I wanted to join a golf club when neither of us play golf.
I told him it was so we can make new friends,
and then he got totally defensive after that.
He said at 40 years old, he doesn't have the energy to make new friends.
He's happy with the friends we have,
who live 45 minutes away,
and he's not interested in meeting new people.
Is anyone too old to make new friends?
Does he think we're going to stay in the house for the rest of our lives and do nothing but hang out with each other?
I told him I'm joining the club with or without him, and now we're not talking.
What should we do?
Signed, friendless and 40.
That's funny.
You're never too old to make friends.
It gets harder to make friends because you just have more going on.
I think the best times to make friends are probably when you're a kid and then when you're old.
because you don't have nothing going on.
Well, because you don't have work if you're retired,
you don't have kids in the house.
I think otherwise it's tough.
Yeah.
I mean, I'm 42.
I mean, I've probably made two or three friends
in the past eight or nine years.
Like friends that I would go,
I need your help.
Can you drop everything and come?
That kind of friend.
So you're never too old to make friends.
It does get harder to make friends.
Your husband's the Grinch.
What's happening?
It's like Christmas.
The guys are,
Bah, humbug.
Man, I related to him.
I know, but you should.
it not do it just for the sake of we can't. Yes, it's harder. Go get in a group. Go get in a golf group.
You'll make new friends, especially if you don't have any friends where you are. Like you have to have
some sort of group, some sort of social group, or you're going to go crazy. So you're never too
old to make friends. It's harder to make friends. I don't think you're going to make a lot of new
friends, but I admire you for going and dipping your toe in that water. Amy? Yeah, I think there's
something like deeper here. If y'all are like literally not talking over this, we need to go. We need to go have
a little meeting, maybe you get a third party involved and like see what's going on.
I get not wanting to meet new friends, he feels content with where he's at, but he also
see your side and want to come alongside you and be like, okay, if this is important to you,
then it's important to me and I'll agree to go to the club with you every once in a while.
Yeah, and he'll probably, he'll probably be the one to make a best friend.
Yeah.
And he'll be embarrassed about it.
Yeah, but Eddie, you have no interest friends?
No, well, what I see, I think the husband is talking about is, yes, you're too busy to make friends
at this age, but also you're going to spend money to,
join a club.
But I think she just wants to join a club or something to do.
Yeah.
You're going to spend money to do stuff.
Yeah.
I'm more of the organic way of making friends.
Kind of like how we've done it.
I'm like you.
I've probably made two or three friends in the last eight years too.
Because we didn't really try.
But if you don't make them at work, if you're an adult, it's hard to meet people.
It really is.
I get it.
I get it.
I feel like when I see Eddie is always walking around trying to make friends with everybody.
I talk to everyone.
I think Eddie's just trying to be liked.
Yes, that's great.
We get deep here?
What do you mean?
It's going on.
Eddie just likes to be liked.
You know?
More than form long lasting friendships.
But then Eddie, let's ask you this.
Like, if it was something that was important to your wife,
would you try to see her side of it and make an effort?
Totally.
But a golf club to me sounds way too expensive to try to make friends.
But you don't know.
It could be cheap.
And they might be able to...
It may not be a country club.
All right.
If it's less than $10 a month, I'm in.
Okay.
What are you going to kind of fitness?
I'm saying.
It can't be cheap.
Also, money's relative.
We have no idea their situation.
It might not be a thing for them.
Yeah, they emailed it on gold, on gold paper.
That makes no sense.
All right, if you want to email us, Morgan, what's the address?
Mailbag at bobbybones.com.
All right, close it up.
We've got your email and we love these mailbag.
All right, to start us off on Fun Fact Friday, here is Jim from Ohio with our listener Fun Fact.
Well, hello, Bobby Bones.
Fun fact, with Fun Fact Friday is that there's no wind on the moon, so I've heard I haven't gone and checked it out.
But there's no wind on the move.
So supposedly Neil Armstrong's footprint is supposedly still there.
I'll probably never go and see it.
But, you know, yep, have a good day.
What is that?
I don't know.
I like it.
But because of no wind, the footprint can't blow away.
Makes sense.
Fun fact Friday.
Nice job, Jim from Ohio.
Thank you very much.
Let's go.
Fun fact Friday.
Counting them down five to one.
Number five.
At its peak, Pablo S.
Cabar's cartel earned $420 million a week.
A week.
Ridiculous.
Think about that.
Yeah, I know.
I am.
It's a lot.
Let's think about this.
420.
It's almost half a billion a week.
And this was at the peak, like back in the day, when that amount of money seems like a lot now.
Imagine it back then.
The money's crazy, guys, but that's the amount of drugs that they were selling.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I mean, they controlled 80% of the worldwide cocaine market, which that's what,
When I watch these cocaine cartel drug shows, I'm like, but what the crazy part is is all the people that are up in arms about it.
It's like, oh, yeah, so we can supply you Americans with all your party drugs.
But don't be mad at me.
I didn't do anything.
She's yelling at us.
Amy, we never bought my stuff.
I never had seen it in real life.
Me neither.
The Pentagon is 5.1 million square feet.
That's a lot.
On Zillow, that'd go for quite the tasty amount.
But it's super cool because it's.
It was designed so that like every point in the building is less than a 10-minute walk from any other point.
So like that's why the Pentagon, the shape is the way that it is so that they can get from point A to B without having to, you know, take half an hour.
How many bathrooms, that is?
A lot of bathrooms.
Never odd or even spelled backwards.
All those words.
Never odd or even.
It is spelled never odd or even.
That's like a race car.
Weird.
Spell race car backwards.
It's the same race car.
Yeah.
like that. You know what that's called?
Well, that would have been the easy one to use probably.
Is that Anamontapia?
No.
No, automata pia is like, boom, whack.
That's lunchbox every time he tells a story.
It's a palindrum.
A palindrome.
Palindrome.
Good try.
Well, actually, Bobby said don't make fun of people if they've ever said the word out loud.
That's right, because that means they've only read it.
Yeah, and I probably learned it at some point in school, but I don't remember.
Probably did.
Thank you.
Number two.
The Calvin Klein Cologne, Obsession.
can attract big cats like jaguars and tigers from like half a mile away.
And then they'll proceed to take long sniffs and cuddle against the source,
enjoying the smell longer than they enjoy some of their meals.
Dude.
I think she's just believing a commercial.
We need to take a lot of a line of session.
There's a jaguar licking the neck of a male model.
I could wear it and see what happens with my cat.
But who would test that?
All right, we're going to the jungle, guys.
Try out.
Try lunchbox at the zoo.
Number one.
Netflix employees get unlimited vacation days and a free subscription.
The unlimited vacation days is pretty weird.
It's incredible.
It must mean that as long as you do your job, they don't care when you're not there.
Right.
So I Googled more for this one because I really want to understand it.
And it said Netflix employees have unlimited vacation because no one is tracking their time.
Instead of micromanaging how people get their jobs done, the leadership focuses on what matters.
results. They found that giving people greater autonomy creates more responsible culture.
They also put out the memo too. There's like, hey, if you're upset by some of the stuff we're
doing, quit. They're like, we have programming for everybody. You don't have to agree with it.
But if you're upset, you get a little feelings, you can quit right now. That's cool.
And I was like, that's cool. I like that. And unlimited vacation. We couldn't do that because
we have to be here at certain hours. But to tell you what, whenever you're not here on the show,
Unlimited vacation.
juice are Eddie.
Stephanie Bibb, she's a teacher at John F. Kennedy Elementary School, and she was in charge
of starting a new program. She says, I got a great idea. We should start the kindness crew.
And this is a crew of like 30 students. And they do things like hold doors for other students.
They greet students and teachers with signs that say positive things on them. And they give
hugs to other kids. It's kind of cool. It's like 30 kids involved in this kindness crew.
You can almost do that with all your kids, Eddie. You can create your own home kindness crew
with all of your children.
Yeah, and they, my four kids need more kindness between them three.
How receptive would they be to something like the kindness crew?
It'd be difficult.
It'd be extremely difficult.
All they do is fight.
But, no, I think this is so cool.
When I was in school, I did Safety Patrol.
Do you ever do that?
No, I love being hall monitor.
Oh, no.
I'd ride somebody a haul ticket quick.
People picked on me in real life.
You give me that little notepad, it was on.
You're out in the hall?
Yeah.
So you were the cop, like during classes when students shouldn't have been
in the halls? Yes, if I didn't have a class.
Oh, boy. You better believe it, buddy.
I got stuff in enough lockers after school.
I was enforcing some justice.
There's Bobby again.
Great story. That is what it's all about.
That was Tell Me Something Good.
If you are a founder or a freelancer or the friend who always says,
hey, you know what if I started that? This is for you.
I'm telling you I had nothing to my name. I didn't know a single person in New York.
And somehow I'm dressed by Oscar de Laurenta walking down that red carpet.
This month, we sit down with entrepreneurs and creators who actually did it,
who turned the scary leap into a business, a paycheck, and a life they are proud of.
Direct center of our happiness or our regrets is whether or not we're taking action on the things that matter to us.
They're not selfish.
They're so important.
They actually lead to our greatest contributions because when we're living fulfilled, we actually show up better everywhere.
We lead better.
We're better friends.
we're better relationships and collaborators
and all those things because we have passion
about the things we're doing.
If you're trying to build something of your own this year,
join us in these conversations
that will make you braver and smarter with your money.
Listen to Dos Amigos as part of the Michael Tutta podcast network
available on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcast.
You can have opinions.
You can have like a strong stance.
And then there's your body having its own purpose.
I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist and host 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 see 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 community striving.
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.

$10.
Yeah, let's go $10.
All right, the capital is Denver.
Oh, God.
And I won $10.
Amy, we lost.
I don't care.
Nice job, Morgan.
If Morgan won, I'm fine with that.
But think about it.
At one time, we live in Nashville
and one time Morgan was asked
the capital of Tennessee.
Very true.
And she said, I'm very terrible at geography.
I said Memphis.
We don't even know the own city we live in.
Exactly. So what my point is, don't take it
personally.
Yeah.
We're human.
Did you learn a capital song, though?
No, I just memorized them all.
I had a lunchbox as a kid that had all the states
in the capitals and that's kind of where I need to get one now.
Well, there we have it. Well, we got to go on our apology tour, so they'll be coming to the city
they insulted.
Sometime near you.
Then we'll see you soon.
All right.
I think you should all call into the station you just insulted.
Okay.
Okay. That's the deal.
Thank you guys. Morgan, congratulations.
Thank you.
It's time for the good news.
This kid Will, who lives in Illinois, loves running, and is part of this project, he
collected athletic shoes, athletic gear.
money to be donated and delivered it all to a youth shelter in Chicago
for his 13th birthday. That's pretty cool.
The Youth Center helps people who are dealing with housing instability or homelessness.
And so he chose that because he wanted to give him a sense of hope.
He said a shoe can basically take you anywhere, seven grand and all the stuff.
13 years old.
13, that's kind of a jerk age, right?
Oh, they're all jerks of 13.
That's like the hormones are really, yes.
So the fact that Will did this at 13, that's extra, extra good.
Will's a cool dude.
Nice job, Will.
That is what it's all about.
Tell me something good.
If you are a founder or a freelancer or the friend who always says, hey, you know what,
what if I started that?
This is for you.
I'm telling you I had nothing to my name.
I didn't know a single person in New York.
And somehow I'm dressed by Oscar de Laurenta walking down that red carpet.
This month, we sit down with entrepreneurs and creators who actually did it, who turned the scary
leap into a business, a paycheck, and a life they are proud of.
Direct center of our happiness or our regrets is whether or not.
not we're taking action on the things that matter to us. They're not selfish. They're so important.
They actually lead to our greatest contributions because when we're living fulfilled, we actually
show up better everywhere. We lead better. We're better friends. We're better relationships and
collaborators and all those things because we have passion about the things we're doing.
If you're trying to build something of your own this year, join us in these conversations that will

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 zo spencer and venture capitalist
lakisha landrum pierre as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up if i'm outside
with my parents and they've seen 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 community striving.
If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they fail.
And what I mean by fell 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.
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 IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get
your podcast. On the phone, Rebecca's on. We'll talk to her. Rebecca, what's going on? I was calling
as a joke. I bought a scratch off yesterday and I won $5,000, so I was going to make a joke and see if he
wants to go with me when I go to claim it to hold the big check. Did you really win the money,
or is that a joke too? Oh, no, I really did. I stopped at a gas station yesterday. I bought a $10 ticket
and won $5,000. That's crazy. That's awesome. Yeah. You scratch it. What was the
three boots, three money signs?
Nope, it was number 22.
That was it.
That was the only number on the ticket that won.
Were you in disbelief at first?
Did you have somebody else check it?
Oh, yeah.
I stand it and it's the Lotto Center.
So, yeah, I was totally shocked.
Lunchbox does not look like he wants to hang out with you right now.
So my question is, do you scratch it immediately when you get in your car?
How do you do it?
Do you go home?
So lunchbox, since you're obsessed with Lodontz.
So the Jumbo Jumbo Bucks Limited came out yesterday.
And I was like, you know what?
I'm going to go buy some.
So I had $60 a winning ticket.
I went in and I played.
I got six of the Jumbo Jumbo Bucks.
Scratch the first one loser.
The second one I scratched.
And I didn't see anything.
And I said, oh, number 22, it's probably a ticket.
And I scratched and I saw three euros first.
And I was like, holy crap.
And I was in my car.
So, yeah, I looked at it again.
And then I immediately took a picture.
send it to my mom.
I want you to know that I'm like you.
I'm hoping one day that it's just my lucky day.
And 5,000 is great, but I would love to be a millionaire like this one day.
You guys are insane.
That's what I'm saying.
What do you mean you want one day to be your lucky day?
That was your lucky day.
That's it.
$5,000.
Put in your pocket.
That was today.
It was yesterday.
Whenever it was.
Okay.
You guys.
No, she has the right idea.
Like the 5,000 is nice.
Why not spend it all lottery tickets?
But $5 million would be unbelievable.
You mean like reinvest?
Yeah.
Why not just go hard?
You just see what she did?
She took $60 in winnings and went and bought more tickets and turned it into $5,000.
So you guys say it doesn't invest, it doesn't work, it does.
Rebecca, congratulations.
I'm never on your side.
Until now.
Until now.
Rebecca, thank you.
Have a great day.
You too.
Bye-bye.
$5,000.
She's like, I can't wait to really get lucky.
Wait, what?
I don't understand the word you were saying to me right now.
All right, let's go over and check in with the morning corny.
The morning corny.
What's the difference between an actor and a burnt rodent?
What's the difference between an actor and a burnt rodent?
One is Chris Pratt, the other is a crisp rat.
Crisp rat.
Chris Pratt.
Chris Pratt.
It's hard to say.
We've got to take this long time to get there.
That was the morning corning.
All right.
Thank you.
We're about to talk to Craig Morgan, who I just love as a person.
For example, when I give you Craig Morgan songs that are amazing,
That's what I love about Sunday from 2004.
That's what I love about Sunday.
Redneck Yacht Club from 2005.
International Harvester, Jam.
He's got so many, right?
But here's what we're going to do.
He's about to be on the phone.
I'm going to roll the dice.
Whatever the number is, that's how many words you have to put in a question to ask him.
So if it's two, you can only ask him a question with two words.
And everybody has to have a question.
Oh, gosh.
Okay?
Yep.
Here we go.
Amy.
six. Doesn't seem that hard.
That's good. You have to ask him a six
worded question. Perfect.
Eddie. Come on.
One. Oh, come on.
You want to see it?
This is ridiculous. He's not even
to know what to say.
The dice, don't lie.
Wait, that's yours.
Great. Lunchbox.
Two.
Oh, easy. That's easier than one.
You good? Don't do that one now.
No, I didn't even think about that.
Okay.
I'll have your numbers.
And you can have multiple questions, but
Eddie one, lunchbox two, Amy, six.
Yeah. Okay. When can I ask
the question? I'll come to you and be like, hey, Eddie
has a question for you. It can't be in the middle of a sentence.
Because that would help. What do you mean? Run it by me. Like if he's talking about like,
oh, I'll talk about it. Oh, man, I was out on the road yesterday.
Where? Got it. Got the question.
That's funny. No. Okay. Okay.
Moments away from Craig Morgan. Ray's talking to him right now.
The Friday morning conversation
with Craig Morgan.
is right now on the phone and welcome to the show my friend thank you bud thanks for having me
back i have a few questions that i was thinking about because you at one time were a police
officer and i wonder if did you ever sing in your uniform with the badge on uh yeah that's probably
sang to myself a lot do you think that you could have been the singing like the singing sheriff
like on tic talk if if that would have happened 25 years later if maybe you're
ragged the singing sheriff and that's how you got your deal.
I'm going to say no.
I was just too focused on doing
that job. Only when I was riding around
by myself or park somewhere
maybe listening to something, sing along with the radio
did I sing. Otherwise, I was focused
on situational awareness.
Yeah, I know you say that, but
I don't know. What about,
did you have to get pepper sprayed to be a cop?
Yes. What's your memories with that?
I'd rather be cased three times
as opposed to have to do pepper spray once.
It's that bad. Why?
It's just brutal, man.
And it takes forever.
You know, the tasing's over pretty quick.
It hurts really bad initially, put you to your knees.
And, you know, but the spray stays with you for some time.
Well, I thought I would rather be sprayed than tase, but I guess now I'll choose the other option.
All right, bring it in.
We're going to do it on the phone now.
He's going to listen in.
Craig Morgan's on with us right now.
What I'd like to do, because I know what you love about Sunday, and I'm going to sing this to you, this question.
I'd like to know what you love about the other days.
Here we go.
What do you love about Mondays?
Go ahead, Craig.
Monday is my Sunday.
Oh, because it's like a day off.
Artists, like his day.
Correct.
All right, let's start this to another one.
What do you love about Tuesdays?
Steak night.
Okay, I like it.
We're right to the point.
Every Tuesday.
Every Tuesday.
You have steak every Tuesday?
Why Tuesday?
Just what me and my wife have been doing.
Okay, all right, all right.
Let's try the next one.
What do you love about Wednesday?
I have no idea
I couldn't tell you
what I do on Wednesday
Okay okay okay okay
Amy you take Thursday
Go ahead
What do you love about Thursdays
That's when I get on the bus
And head your way
Oh that's good
That's pretty good
We only got two more days here
What do you love about Fridays
That's when I get to stand on my stage
Okay we're good
Now he's got to feel of it
We're singing the song with each other
Good, one more.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
What do you love about Saturday?
Bike ride and run before I play.
Oh, every Saturday you go get a bike ride.
And run.
Oh, triathlon, basically.
You ever wrecked before a show?
Oh, yeah, every, I'm pretty ready.
Every show.
He's like, yeah, every show, every Saturday.
No, but Saturday I do a long ride.
How long is that?
50 plus.
Wow.
Oh, my.
Are you not tired when you get on stage?
No, not at all.
It gives me energy.
I walk on the treadmill before a show, and I'm like,
I can't even do it.
Now, the show would like to ask you a question.
Up first is Amy, my co-host, Amy Craig Morgan's on.
What would you like to ask him?
Hey, Craig.
Hi, Amy.
Hi.
How are you feeling right now?
I feel great.
There you go.
Yeah.
Do you have another one?
I do.
Okay, here we go.
What did you eat for breakfast?
Three cups of coffee.
That's it?
That's my breakfast.
I generally don't eat breakfast.
They say it's the most important meal today, but I'm in discus.
Not for you.
All right.
Let's go over to Eddie, our video producer, Eddie, Craig,
Morgan's on what would you like to ask him now why uh i don't eat breakfast because i don't need the i don't
need it for fuel see for me i approach food a lot differently in most people a lot of people approach
food as a an experience and so on and so forth for me food is fuel that's it not to say that i don't
enjoy my steak on on tuesday nights yeah tuesday night obviously but but i'm i'm a card guy
I kind of watch my car is pretty close, and I've learned that I don't really need as much as my mind once told me I did.
Lunchbox, one final question for Craig Morgan?
Favorite city?
Oh, my goodness.
This is tough.
I'm going to have to say, mine out North Dakota.
Hey, I loved it there.
Super nice people.
It's cold.
Craig likes cold.
Yeah.
I don't like cold.
Eddie, one final question for Craig Morgan.
Go ahead before we go.
Where?
He said, mine out North Dakota.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Eddie doesn't listen. Last thing, I remember now what triggered this call. I saw you were doing your tour. And long ago, I said, hey, Craig, we really need a tour t-shirt. And Craig promised me a tour t-shirt. And you know who doesn't have a tour t-shirt from Craig Morgan? Come on. You know who still doesn't have it? Me. Yeah. That's right. Eddie asked him, who?
No, I'm good. That's all I'm saying. I'm still shirtless, Craig.
I have to give you one of the older ones. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. They're hard to find.
These guys, all of my guys, you're not going to believe this because, of course, you ask this question now.
They have literally been on Etsy and everywhere trying to buy up old Craig Morgan T-shirts.
So you're saying they've been looking for me one or looking for you to have old ones?
Looking for one for your wife.
That's right.
That's who it's for.
Yes.
Okay.
I mean, I can do that.
I go to Etsy and try to find one.
Okay.
No, no.
No, no.
I got your T-shirt coming.
And we'll make sure you get one of the new.
both of you have one and you'll have to wear it on the show
the New God Family Country Tour T-shirt.
Okay, we're there.
We cannot wait to see you in town here, but Craig Morgan's all over.
You guys go to Craigmorgon.com.
You know, I love you and I'll see you soon.
Thanks, goodbye.
A voicemail from Mariah in Dallas, Texas.
I was just listening to the post show from the other day,
and you guys are talking about skydiving,
and my husband and I are avid skydivers.
I'm at about almost 500 jumps.
He's at almost 900 jumps,
and I can tell you that skydiving is really safe.
They're hot dogs.
Kill more people than skydiving does.
So Eddie, have fun and enjoy the jump.
You know, they say that, just delete this.
This is stupid.
She gave up on her call.
She did.
She quit halfway through it.
But before she told us to get up on the voicemail.
That's funny.
That was good, Mariah.
But I like that slogan.
So Eddie and Abby both said their bucket list is to go skydive.
The rest of us have done it.
I hated it.
It's stupid.
But you have four kids and you had to get permission from your wife.
Did you?
No, not yet.
Oh, you didn't ask.
I haven't asked yet.
I haven't asked yet.
Do you have to wait until, like, the Times ride or can you just go into that and be like, hey, can I go skydiving?
It's probably better just to ask it while she's, like, in the middle of something.
Do not put it on me, though?
No, I won't.
Don't say, hey, it's for the show.
Nope.
Okay.
Because I don't want her, who's friends with my wife to be like, are they doing some sky?
Uh-uh.
Do I phrase it like, you know, I've always wanted to go.
skydiving. Yeah, and say, hey, now there's an opportunity that
Abby brought it up, she wanted to do it, I could do it
with her. I think we're okay because, like,
a few months back, Scuba wanted me to go
skydiving, and she was cool with that then.
You know, so she'll be fine. Okay, let us know
next week sometime. You got it. All right.
Coming up in a second, we're going to do
basically two lies and a truth.
What'd you call your game here?
Two fake one real. Okay, so she's going to give us
three statements, two or fake one's real. I spent
all night thinking about this game. Oh. Because
what the answer is, and I am sure
is the real one. It's so easy that it can't be real.
Oh.
She's going to give us three. Two of them are fake. One of them is real. It's about her life.
We're going to figure it out next with Amy. And then we have a call around who wants to know
why lunchbox is always upset us. We'll get to that too. That's next.
On the phone in Amarillo, Texas is Tiffany.
Tiffany, thank you for calling the show. What do you want to say?
I have a question for lunchbox.
Go ahead.
Why are you always so angry at everything?
think. What have I been angry about? I don't think I've been angry at all.
Every little, sometimes in every segment, they always seem I keep something angry about with it.
I don't think so. I think sometimes I get frustrated or I'm shocked by things and I think you're mistaking that like surprise feeling as anger.
Your surprise sounds angry.
Maybe it's more like your passion something.
Yeah, maybe I'm passionate about something. I don't know. Can you give me an example?
You do get upset about it.
Like, give me something that I got upset about in the last week.
Anybody winning the lottery?
Here we go.
Anybody.
That is frustrating.
Anybody making more money than you in any way shape of life?
Anybody getting any sort of opportunity that has nothing to do with what you've tried,
but they get an opportunity and you're like, oh, that's stupid, I didn't get it.
Yeah, that's frustrating because they weren't even trying to be an actor and they
get it handed to him on a silver platter where I've been working my tail off.
You haven't.
Not your tail?
You've taken a few glasses.
That's working my tail off.
More worth than she's put in.
Tiffany's already getting angry.
So thank you for the call.
We understand why you would say that.
And we appreciate you listening.
All right.
Thank you.
You all have a good one.
Bye, Tiffany.
Okay, we're going to play a game here.
Amy sent me this.
I don't know the answer to it.
I've been very excited about this all night.
Oh, you're going to play too?
Well, because I run it through my head like 20 times.
I don't know the answer.
And it just seems like I will know the answer immediately.
But if she pitched the game like this, it can't be as easy as it seems.
So the game is two fake and one reel.
Right, Amy?
Yep.
She has three things.
I'm going to let Amy say them, but she got three statements.
Two of them are fake.
One of them is real.
We have to find the real one.
Now, I don't know the answer.
I think I know the answer, but then I'm like, that's too easy.
That can't be the answer.
Amy, let's go.
Number one.
I saw a raccoon on a leash.
Okay.
Like walking a raccoon?
Yes.
Like a pet.
Sort of like I walk my cat.
You saw a raccoon on a leash.
Okay.
The next one.
I have been invited.
to be on a soap opera.
The next one?
Well, I've told y'all my kids want a baby.
And I carry my cat like a baby,
and we're finally starting the process of adopting another baby.
And you've mentioned yourself that you wanted another baby.
You have said that, yeah.
Yeah.
Yes.
And it just was like a matter of figuring out when the time is right.
can we ask a question each we get one question period about all three that you can ask any question you want she'll answer it you don't have to be honest you can try to fullest so if we say why the raccoon you'd be like was it was it was on third street it was you can make up whatever what you got it lunchbox you get one question about these go ahead okay where are you adopting a baby from it's domestic and if it's domestic i guess you don't want to share with because it's a new yeah good call well yeah i mean i'm not saying that it just it's it's domestic
Because, I mean, my two adopted kids currently are from Haiti, and so we have considered that.
But it's just difficult there right now.
And originally, our plan was to do domestic anyway.
Eddie?
Who was walking the raccoon?
A man.
That's the worst question ever in my life.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know him.
That's a bad terrible question.
I was going to be a man or a woman.
We think she was going to say.
A kid.
Thomas Rett.
I mean, what?
Yeah.
John Marty.
Yeah.
Blake Shelton.
That would have been unbelievable.
All right.
Two are fake.
One's real.
Which one is real?
The real one is A, the raccoon, because I have, I forgot all about this, but I was eating at a hamburger
place.
The guy had the raccoon there on the table.
I have video.
What?
Yep.
So I know it's the raccoon.
I have seen it too.
I have pulled it too.
You said it.
I totally forgot about it.
You saw a man with a raccoon and you forgot.
No, I meant to send it in and I totally forgot until you just said it right now.
How do you forget that?
Okay.
Eddie?
Well, it's the raccoon 100%.
No, you know.
Yes.
You know that.
You're not adopting a baby and you're not asking a movie.
If Lach Act had seen a raccoon in their neighborhood,
he should have taken himself out of the competition, for the record.
Well, I didn't know that that was going to be part of the thing.
That's true.
Until she said it.
But then you should have played a cool and been like,
I'm going with the raccoon and not known why.
You dummy.
It's easily the raccoon now because he's seen the same raccoon in the neighborhood.
I'm going to go with the soap opera, though, just for the heck of it.
All right.
Amy.
I saw a man walking a raccoon.
That's crazy, though.
But I honestly, it's kind of cool.
Lodgebox says video because I thought nobody was going to believe me
because I don't have proof.
Because I was driving and didn't have time to take any video.
That sounds, Luchbox is playing a video for some reason in studio.
I'm just, so you know I'm not lying.
It's at a restaurant and it's on the table.
You can turn the volume down.
Yeah, yeah, you can hit down.
He turned it out.
What restaurant?
A little hamburger place.
Okay.
You already said that.
That's crazy, y'all.
There's a man.
walking around with a raccoon.
That is pretty crazy.
That's crazy.
Like, I've never seen that in my life.
I mean, it's crazier that it was on a table and a restaurant, if I'm being honest.
So dirty.
I just thought there's no way y'all were going to believe me because I didn't have proof.
So I thought it'd be fun to play a game.
Why don't you pick two unbelievable, super unbelievable things?
Hell is that.
Today at three, I'm dyeing my hair fully blonde.
No.
Like things that actually can happen?
I actually could be adopting a baby right now.
You're not.
Not right now.
I actually.
But you're not.
They actually did tell me I did a good job at the acting thing to where maybe they consider me for other opportunities.
But you're not. So you can't argue. Okay.
But all that's believable.
You saw a raccoon. Hey, good for you.
And I apologize, Amy, that I should have stepped out.
I just didn't. Like, once you stepped out, I was like, oh, my God, I forgot all about that video.
And I know the answer.
I saw it, too.
He sends it in tomorrow.
Yeah.
I didn't really what I saw.
But it's the guy's pet.
It's literally his pet.
And I talked to the server at the restaurant.
and he comes in there at least once a week.
With the raccoon.
Thank you for the game.
It was a good game, Amy.
I like that.
Next up, lunchbox, you make one of these.
You can never believe what I saw at a restaurant.
I saw a raccoon at a restaurant.
If you are a founder or a freelancer or the friend who always says,
hey, you know what if I started that?
This is for you.
I'm telling you I had nothing to my name.
I didn't know a single person in New York.
And somehow I'm dressed by Oscar de Laurenta walking down that red carpet.
This month, we sit down with entrepreneurs and creators who actually did it,
who turned the scary leap into a business, a paycheck, and a life they are proud of.
Direct center of our happiness or our regrets is whether or not we're taking action on the things that matter to us.
They're not selfish.
They're so important.
They actually lead to our greatest contributions because when we're living fulfilled,
we actually show up better everywhere.
We lead better.
We're better friends.
We're better relationships and collaborators and all those things because we have passion.
about the things we're doing.

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 love.
leveling up.
If I'm outside with my parents and they see 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 gotta 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 fail 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.

Super dumb.
I think it's the dumbest thing you can do.
One of the first couples to marry over Zoom has divorced.
They still haven't met.
Hey, how dumb.
You get married over Zoom to somebody you never met.
I don't have a problem with you getting married over Zoom.
If for some reason during the pandemic, you're in the military, you can't get to your guy, your girl, and you've been planning.
Okay.
But you ain't ever.
met him?
Ah, it's dumb as crap.
All right, one of the first couples to meet and get married over Zoom is divorcing.
They still haven't met in person.
The woman claims this guy's been unfaithable on his back with his ex.
Okay.
They've never met.
So, probably, but you expect otherwise?
Why do you expect anything?
A 26-year-old British woman filed for an annulment from her American husband.
He's 24.
Three months after marrying him.
But can you annul after three months?
Yeah, I think that might be the window.
I'm not sure.
They still have not met.
in person. They met online during quarantine. Things were good. How do you not get together?
I mean, different countries. COVID. Travel. Lockdown. How do you still not get together?
You're married. So it's a dumbest thing I ever heard. One of them. Yeah, it's the dumbest thing. So what I've
asked the room to do is, and I will say by a show of hands, who would like to share, because
some people may not have the dumbest thing, but everybody, the floor is open. Who wants to share the
dumbest thing they've ever done in their life.
Yeah, I mean,
Eddie's hands up, lunchbox's hands up.
Oh, Morgan's hand.
Okay, I'll go first just to kind of break it up.
Maybe you're not going to do it?
I want to hear you else first.
Well, the dumbest thing that I've done in my life is
a minor similarity,
pushed a button, and I got fined a million dollars by the FCC.
Oh, yeah, that's pretty dumb.
Yeah, that's pretty dumb.
Definitely.
I remember that.
But you learn from it.
Yeah, yeah, and I hope.
Others did too.
We have to take a test.
We're reminded every year.
Yeah.
The entire company has to take a test now because of a button I pushed
and then the million dollar fine that came after that.
And I remember seeing it pop up on the screen.
It is a wreck.
Another dumb thing was I had a great idea for a bit once,
and then lunchbox and I did it, and he went to jail.
Was that yours?
I'd like to piggyback off that.
Okay, so I'm going to let lunchbox go then.
Okay, good.
Good.
So I'll just take the million dollar fine.
I'll let you have the other one.
Go ahead.
The worst thing I ever did was take this job.
The dumbest thing.
Not the worst.
The dumbest thing I ever did was take this job
and have a meeting with my boss, Bobby,
and we come up with this great idea
that I'm going to buy panty hose,
put it over my...
No, you're going to buy gum.
Well, no, no, I'm going to put panty hose over my face,
then walk into the convenience store
and buy a pack of gum
with panty hose over my face.
So I did that,
and then I got arrested at gunpoint
and thrown in the slumber and my...
It's crazy, is it?
That day, to me, here's what I remember.
All right, it was supposed to be hilarious.
I had some panty hose and an egg,
one of those eggs?
It's like, okay, go in.
And we'll see what.
what happens. You just buy gum. Be nice.
What's the egg? It's it, but panty hose was in.
Oh, I got you. You get legs.
Legs. Is it,
is the dumbest thing we could have done.
Dumbest thing we ever did. Oh, wow, that was allowed.
And I said, just go in, but be nice.
It would be on the phone, just buy gum, but you're wearing panty hose on your
face. And I waited in a lot. I had to wait in line.
Yeah, somebody was ahead of him. Yeah, and I was on the
phone the whole time, on the air. Like a, what a robber waiting line.
No. Right. Come on. So he does it.
in the bit, nothing really happens. We're like, well, that's kind of a dud.
except they see him.
They hit the panic button behind the counter.
Held him at gunpoint.
Oh, my God.
And I got throwing the slamer.
They came to arrest me and I was like,
you ain't taking me in, I ran.
Oh, is that right?
No, but they were like,
we're coming back for you and they didn't.
But yes, he was in jail.
So that is the dumbest thing I've ever done.
He called.
He was like, I can't get a hold of my parents
or would you tell my parents my message?
And I was like, yeah, well, I'll tell him.
Was he all like big voice like the way he normally is?
We were both young and dumb.
Okay.
I was 22, man.
Yeah, that was 23.
Dang.
And we got pulled off the air for weeks, and every show was like gloating.
Ah, we told you they wouldn't make it.
That's right.
We came back.
We're number one for 10 years after that.
Wow.
Yeah, it's pretty awesome.
Well, except it's the dumbest thing we ever do.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dumbest thing.
Eddie, you raised your hand.
Oh, my gosh.
Mine's pretty dumb.
Were you scared in jail?
Well, I was sitting there and there was...
No, no, no, I'm going to tell you what happened.
There was two guys that came in, and they had tattoos all over.
over their face and they start talking about what they did and they're like what's you do and i was like
man i want to say i killed him yeah because they were like they were like man it's all right we'll be out
in like six months i was like oh my gosh i was like i better be out by six o'clock uh lunchbox by
they charged him with terroristic threatening but then it was all dropped because he didn't do anything
oh good good there's no you can go into Halloween people go on a mask all the time anyway is it
still dumb yeah yeah but okay i'm gonna get off this uh Eddie go ahead
Man, this is the summer after I graduated high school and I was headed back home from a party.
And my house was about, I don't know, about a two minute drive from the city.
It was a dirt road and there's no one out there.
And I see someone walking in the middle of nowhere.
And I'm like, am I seen things?
Or is that really a person?
I back it up.
It was really a person.
They were hitchhiking.
I picked them up.
And I took them to wherever they were going.
They said, I'd give you money if you take me wherever, you know, across town.
This was like a 10 minute drive across town.
I'm like, all right, I'll take them.
I took them, dropped them off.
I told the story to my friend the next day.
And a week later, the mugshot was all over the news.
It was a someone wanted for murder.
And I had picked them up and taken them to a hotel.
What?
They could have totally killed me, but they didn't.
Thank goodness.
But that was the dumbest thing.
I've ever done.
Almost.
I mean, I was pretty dumb.
The dumbest would have been if you got murdered.
Well, no, I wouldn't be here to tell you that story.
I mean, you just gave me someone a ride.
Yeah, there was no.
It was a murder. There's no real ending, though. Maybe you took someone to murder. You took him somewhere else to murder.
Guys, they were headed to Mexico. Oh, no, no, no, no. No, no. No, no. They didn't murder after I had that.
Accomplice. In my car. Hey, that was almost the dumbest thing. Morgan. Oh, well, it was because I dated this guy. I got in a lot of trouble when I was dating him. He got me in trouble for sneaking out. I was underage drinking. I was doing lots of bad things with this man, right?
Man.
Oh, my goodness.
He was older than me.
How old?
Not like illegal, but he was older than me.
And it was so dumb that by the time I finally realized I needed to break up with him and I broke up with him, he paintballed my parents' house, he egged my parents' house, and then he drove through my parents' yard, which then my dad had to, like, go out and, like, handle all of it.
So I look back on that moment, and I was like, that was pretty dumb of me to date that man.
Yeah.
You keep saying man.
I know.
When you were underage.
There's a real consequence there, right?
Yeah.
That happened.
Okay.
Can anyone beat any of these?
I mean, Ray, you know Ray's got a pile of them.
Ray, can you close the show?
I mean, the ones I can talk about.
This one, so it still affects me to the day.
The dumbest thing I ever did.
So my vehicle, you guys see the scrapes on the side of it.
It was all a college night, and I was with South Beach, and we went at the Hilton Hotel,
and we parked there, and we had dinner, and it was like, and we were leaving.
So we go to the thing, and it says $25.
Well, me in South Beach didn't have $25.
And I was like, dude, I've seen people do it before.
You can actually go around these little parking machines and then you don't have to pay.
So you could maybe do that if you had a smaller car, not an SUV.
So I go around, get stuck in between the pay machine and the wall.
And then I just keep gunning it.
And I like, and then I back out.
And then I get back out.
And I finally wiggle my way out.
And I look at the damage of my car called AAA.
It was like over 5,000.
Never got it fixed.
And Hilton looked at the footage.
And they were like, yeah, you can pay us $1,000.
and we're doing you a favor to help fix the parking machine.
They saw you on the footage.
Oh, yeah.
It was all there.
Going back and forth.
My tire trucks are probably still there.
I would actually love to watch that video.
So you'd probably say that was the Domitian.
Well, I'm surprised Scoob, Steve doesn't have one.
He's got a story for everything.
But Scooby, you're just going to pass on this one?
Some of them could be incriminating and getting trouble.
Yeah.
He was the hitchhiker you picked up.
Oh, he did look like it.
He was the hitchhiker.
All right.
Thank you all for your stories.
That's a segment we call.
That was the Domestown.
thing. Or Amy and Eddie, almost.
It's pretty dumbest.
This story comes us from Oklahoma.
A 71-year-old woman
went through the drive-thru at Little Caesars
and said, yes, I'd like a pizza and some crazy bread.
The 17-year-old employee was like, sorry, ma'am, we ran out of crazy bread for the night.
She said, excuse me?
She said, yeah, we don't have any crazy bread.
She got out of the car, reached through the window.
Bam! Bam! Slapped him twice.
All because of no crazy bread.
or that she had she had extra crazy bread before she got there and she went crazy.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
It sounds like somebody had a little too much crazy bread.
Crazy people eat crazy bread.
I don't even know what crazy bread is.
It's just like breadsticks with parmesan cheese on it.
So it's like a breadstick.
Yeah.
Doesn't sound too crazy.
It sounds good.
It sounds good.
Yeah, it sounds good.
I mean, it's got butter, of course, on it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, well, what's the lesson we learned here?
That's what I'm going to ask you after every one of these for a while.
What's the lesson you learned from this bonehead?
maybe don't go crazy over crazy bread
maybe don't hit somebody
oh yeah don't slap people
all right there you go
I'm lunchbox that's your bonehead story of the day
so Eddie stole lunchbox's bike
for another one of these stupid reels
yes he is so...
Hey your reels are so annoying
so stupid
stop with the rules
well after the whole you know like
oh you can't use my name and likeness
I was like this is even better
I'm gonna just run with this all week
so he took your bike
and he rode to work
I ride it to work and I go out to leave
and my bike's gone and I'm like
What in the world?
Is he filming you looking for your bike?
Yeah. See what I'm saying?
No, no. I don't know he's filming me.
Of course. That's why the prank is a prank.
And then I had to go out in the garage and look through all the cars and all the stuff in the garage.
And I find my bike and I'm getting on it.
And Eddie comes running out with the camera.
He goes, oh, did you find your bike?
That's pretty funny.
Come on, buns.
We got to get creative with these real.
Okay, so next time I'm just going to steal his car.
I like it.
Or his kids.
He goes home.
His kids are gone.
I mean, it's so funny.
I'm going to go park your car at the main.
McDonald's down the street and oh ha ha got you on a reel.
Eddie, you're real.
The fact that you want to do all these rules for Instagram and make video so you can get paid
a nickel.
It's so annoying.
More than a nickel.
But you're just so annoying with this.
Okay.
I love doing it, dude.
Hey, but that one's funny.
And then he decided, oh, I'm not going to post it.
It's not that funny.
Well, I'm not posting a later date.
Maybe I'll like to see it.
But it's not even that funny.
He can't see me looking for the bike because he's all the way upstairs.
It was funny.
You can hear him walking downstairs and he goes.
You can hear him?
Oh, because I had to be behind him.
I couldn't be in front of him.
