show. Morning Studio. Morning. All right, let's go around the room. Give me your bestest news story. Let's go to Eddie first. Eddie? I am shocked that this didn't make bigger news, but a secret service agent that was watching over President Biden's granddaughter ended up shooting his gun at some people that are trying to break into a car. Wow. Like, I've never heard of a secret service agent like actually having to take action. Whoa. And with somebody else, breaking into somebody else's car? It was a government car, one of their cars or whatever, but no one was in it. They just saw that these guys we're breaking in there. He's like, hey, get away from the car.

And they started like, there was a confrontation. Got it. So they probably pulled a weapon, which made the Secret Service guy pull a weapon to protect himself. Not just seeing someone break in the car and he just starts firing out of it. No, I don't think so. But, I mean, it's still, it's crazy. Like Secret Service agents, you just see them like hand of the ear, you know, sunglasses and that's it. That's crazy that they actually shot their weapon.

Amy, you would see Secret Service on the University of Texas campus, right? Well, at... Or just Austin in general? Yes, well, when I was in high school, and it was Governor Bush and his daughters were at my high school, they would, secret service would sometimes be at high school. But they would be like men in their 40s, but acting like a high school kid? Hello, fellow kids. No, they would, before they could drive, that's who would drop them off at school. That'd be so cool.

And then once the girls were able to drive, but like if their dad was coming up to the high school for something, they would be there with their little earpieces. That'd be so cool. Yeah. And then, yeah, later, once they were in college and he was actually president, you would see. Would they just be standing outside protecting the dorm at all times? That would be so cool. Yeah. But you never get privacy.

But you don't even need a security system. Who cares? I know. That was one thing I felt really bad for them. Who needs privacy? I mean, there was a girl looking in your bed. They're not pooping and they're watching you. Yeah, but you're making out with someone.

They're right. Who cares? They're not, they don't care. They don't care. They let them use a fake ID, things like that. There was a girl that used to work at our radio station. She lived in an apartment. Same one is one of the Bush sisters in college.

And someone was breaking into a random apartment. Bad idea. Guess who's sitting outside? Secret Service. Got him? Yeah, because they weren't breaking into her apartment, but they were... Sure. They could have been breaking into the apartment to get to her. But they weren't. But they, yeah. All right, lunchbox, what do you have?

I'm going to say congratulations, Eddie, for not bringing a boring one. I know what? I thought it was going to be a science one. I had a science one that was really good, too, but I was like, you know what? They don't want to hear it. What was it, though? It was these astronauts. They lost their tool bill. A hundred thousand dollar tool bill. I saw it. They can't find it.

Yeah, it's floating out there in space right now. That's pretty interesting. Isn't that crazy? Yeah, did you see the professor that wants his body, like, blown up and sending to space when he dies because he wants aliens to clone him? What? Oh, but I like that one, too. Boom, let's go. Lunchbox.

Fire Festival 2 has kicked off with no catastrophes. Billy McFarlane, the guy that went to jail for scamming all these people, he announced that he was doing it again. And so the first people that bought tickets, he took them on zero gravity flights. You can go to New York, get on an airplane, and feel zero gravity up in an airplane. and so like 50 people he took him up because they're the first 50 people to buy his ticket. So Fire Festival, though, hasn't happened yet. No.

It's coming up in a year. Right. So it could be a catastrophe. No, no, no. He said if you're one of the first ones to buy a ticket, I'm going to take you on a zero gravity flight. Yeah, I hear you, but the festival could be a catastrophe still. You said there were no catastrophe.

Right. On this. Like, he said he was going to do something. He came through. Pre-sailed people. Yes. But has he done? It's not even the festival.

Yeah, they went on the flight. They went up and they have a thing. You can make it zero gravity and feel it. I wouldn't trust it. Who's playing at this fire festival? He doesn't have a book yet. See, okay. It's so stupid.

It's already a catastrophe. All right, Amy, what do you have? Well, if you're looking for love, you may want to consider a move to Seattle because that is the place for singles to find their soulmates. They put all that sets the top one. They based on an economy, percentage of population that is single, the number of online dating opportunities,

the average price for two people going out on a date. It's too far back in time zone. Oh, well Madison, Wisconsin isn't number two, Denver, Colorado three, San Francisco four, and Portland, Oregon, 5. Yeah, Portland's cool. Same time zone, but just feels different. Seattle feels so isolated. I like it. It feels so isolated.

Like, you're just in a different country because you're just so up there and back. Really cool city, but it just feels like forever to get anywhere. Madison, Wisconsin, the shout out. Yeah, I like Madison, Wisconsin. Finally, life expectancy for men in the U.S. falls to 73 years. Six years less than women. Yeah, we're at 70. He didn't read 79?

Yeah, 79. Oh, because I thought we were at 78. You got them with that math. I thought we were all going to reach 100 or something. No. Not you. No, definitely. The expectancy of men, it was 74, then 73.2, and now it's straight 73.

What are we doing? I mean, it was 77 in 2020. Oh, man. That's crazy. Maybe. Stress? I mean, yeah, stress. And of all the, the.

countries that are developed, we're like the worst. Japan, Korea, Portugal, UK, all 80-year-older. It's got to be preservative, huh? So would you trade living in the United States? I had to go live in one of those countries. I'd never live to one of those countries. I'm going to say yes.

My answer is yes. But then you hear about people in Sweden how happy they are all day. So you'd rather live in another country if you're going to live longer? No, that's not what I said. I would have to live here. But I've never lived in another place to even answer that question. with any sort of intelligence or not. Are Sweden people really happy or do they just say that to make everybody want to come visit Sweden?

I'm not a Sweden person, never been to Sweden. So in Sweden the life expectancy is 83. Yeah. Wow. That's pretty solid. They must be really happy. We need to go to one of those blue zones. I saw that.

I've seen, there's like a documentary on that. Yeah. It's where we need to live. They live the longest. They live like 100 years old. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I've read about it.

I probably don't have technology, though. They do. They're not. They're not off the grid. Yeah, I was going to say. But it's just more. they're, what's the person, not Mormon? Amish.

Amish, thank you. Yeah, they're not Amish. There you go. Mormons in my head, we went to BYU. Yeah, that's fresh. The Mormons are the nicest people, though. If it's nice, like, they're the nicest. There's a video of Eddie snapping a ball.

He's trying to be a deep snapper, and it skips like five yards in front of the guy. And he's like, you did a great job. Well, five more yards, but that was a great. It was terrible. Yeah. He's just like the sweet. They're just the sweetest guys. They're very nice.

Yes. Anyway, there you go. That's the news. It's the anonymous sandbox to spendbox. I've been with my husband for three years. When we first got together, we had discussed having kids together. I have two from a previous marriage. He is amazing with them. I just recently learned I have fertility issues

and have been trying to lose weight to start fertility medication that may not even help. My husband has now changed his mind and says he doesn't want to try anymore. I know I'll be okay if we don't have a baby together, but part of me is hurt. I was content with two kids, but when he said he wanted one together, I was okay.

I was actually good with that. But now he's changed his mind. I get where he's coming from, but am I wrong for being upset by this? Any advice is appreciated, signed hopeful for a pregnancy. Amy? I mean, I think your feelings are valid,

so you're not wrong for being upset. And I think that's something that y'all are going to have to work through. I feel like there could be some room for discussion if he like quickly changed, I wonder if he has some fear around like it not working out so he doesn't want to get his hopes up anyway. So he's just like, well, let's just shut this down

because it doesn't seem like it's going to happen. Because there's a lot of emotion that goes into trying to have a baby and starting fertility stuff and trying to figure all that out. Or he may think, okay, well, what if it ends up working for her? But then I'm the problem and I can't make it happen. I remember feeling that way. And I was never able to have a baby and we desperately wanted that.

And it all... So you think it's a defense mechanism for it. It could possibly be. I mean, you could just look into it. So there could still be room for conversation if he works through that. But if not, I mean, y'all are just, this is a, this is one of those things. I guess you're going to have to come maybe see what happens. And then, what if, voila, you happen to get pregnant?

Wala. You never know. That never happened for me. But we ended up still creating a good life and adopting kids. and you already have two beautiful children, so who knows what's in store, but your feelings are valid. Yeah, you're never wrong for feelings.

Sometimes you can be wrong because of how you act on those feelings. Yes. And I think the fact that you have two kids already, and you were content, you said. Yeah, I think that also you should weigh that in as well. He may also, you know, not want you to have to go through the process

of losing weight to just take the medicine, and the medicine may not work for you and all that's going to put you through. So I would be a, a little more aware of that it's not just about him being selfish that it might be just him putting a little protective covering on the whole relationship.

Yeah, there's probably multiple layers. Yeah, I agree. I wouldn't, here's something I will say too. I don't know if you're feeling this, but I think sometimes when someone says they want to have a baby with you and then they change their mind, you may receive it as some form of rejection of

what? They don't want my baby. Right. Maybe you were content with two kids, but now suddenly since you feel rejected, you're like, well, wait a second. Well, it's wrong. So you probably need to evaluate if you really want to go through all of this as well. Because make sure your feelings and your motives are right. Our advice is don't make this all about him being selfish because we think there's probably way more to that.

It's to figure out why and then readdress your feelings. Because I have a feeling. It's just not him not one to have a kid anymore. Right. Thank you. On the phone right now, it is Nancy. Nancy, good morning. Welcome to the show.

Well, I was actually, I'm kind of a new listener, and I first want to say that I absolutely love you. And I want to know why you're called Bobby Bones. Exactly. Why are you called Boney Bones? It's no good reason. I just do that. So the real story of my name, because my real name is Bobby. But when I was a 17, almost 18-year-old kid, I was begging to work at a radio station.

No, no, no, no, no. And when I was hired, I was hired to clean, not be on the air, and switch out of count. down CD. It was the Rick D's weekly Top 40. And so, that was my only job. Well, one of the guys got fired because he was stealing station equipment, like weekend

DJ equipment, because there was also a mobile DJ service at the small station I worked at. So they fired him, so they needed someone to go on the air immediately. I was like, I can do it. Okay, well, we don't have anybody else, so I guess you're going to be the guy. And your name is going to be Bobby Bones or Bobby Z. And I remember

thinking those are both terrible names. but I don't know with bones because at least it sounded like a human. And so that's it. There is no story. I just feel like a pirate sometimes. I still get embarrassed. If someone's never heard of me or the show, and someone's like, hey, I want you to meet Bobby Bones.

I'm like, oh, God. It's my laugh at you. It's just a weird name. And it's so mean, I don't think about it a lot, but I still do sometimes. And people mess it up a lot, and they call me Bobby Jones. How long did it take you to get used to being called Bones? Like, because, I mean, that's just never been your name. So it must take a while to get used to that.

I have, okay, but now I've been known as that longer than I was not known as that. True. Because I was 18 when Bobby Bones became a thing. I'm 43 now. So, you know, 25 years. Yeah, wow. 25 years and my name is Bones. So, but that's, that's it.

I mean, there's no great story about it. There was a whole story about T-Bone when I was younger, but it has nothing to do with Bobby Bones, oddly. I was wrestling. and I was in seventh grade it was wrestling at school yeah but we were wrestling like on a mat

off season football no leotard I was wearing shorts I was wearing shorts that's the wrestling team okay I always pictured that you had on one of those wrestling things and it ripped

no it just a pair of shorts and it ripped and as I was wrestling that I mean my seventh grade version of myself came out and I didn't know it and I just kept wrestling

and everybody's like pointing and I'm like I know I I'm killing, I'm kicking his butt. I was getting taught. But anyway, that, they call me T-bone. That was traumatizing. I hated it.

I was already picked on any way at school. And imagine being a seventh grader and living with that with every older kid, every, oh, miserable. But one did not roll into the other oddly. But in a real carmatic way, I guess it did. It was meant to be. It was meant, hey, Tyler Hubbard and B.B.Rexis said it at best. It was meant to be. It'll be.

Baby, it's T-Bone. I think BK2. I don't think he's saying it, though. No, he didn't. Okay. But he was there. Yeah, I think he was like, good job, Tyler. Like, maybe rode it with him. I don't know.

A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what you're saying. Yep, that's me, Clifford Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football, or my career in

Tell me something good.

Mandy Scepter, she lives in Kentucky. She's a single mom and has always wanted a big family. Lots of kids, but she's not married. So she looked into the in vitro or whatever, you know. In vitro? You can do it. Yeah, in vitro. She looked into that.

She's like, I don't know if I want to do that. So she looked into fostering. Well, while she was talking to a social worker, she said, well, you know what? Skip the fostering part. We have six kids that are all sisters and they need a place. So why don't you try adopting them? Six together. Six together.

They were all in different fostering. No, but I mean like six sisters. Yes. She's taking them all together. So she said that sounds amazing. Mandy took in all six girls. And the oldest is 19. So she was already even out of the foster care system.

But since she adopted her, I mean, she's part of the family now. She moved in. She moved in. And all six sisters are together, which is so rare. Because once they go into the foster system, guys, they can be spread all over the place. They may never see each other again. How lucky were those sisters that somebody was found that wanted to have multiple kids at once. Yeah.

Incredibly. Wow. And I always complain about, and I don't complain, I love it, but I complain about having four kids because it's a lot. Having six is crazy. So good for her, man. That's awesome. What's the difference in two and four? A big difference.

Big difference. It's double. Doubally worse. I get the number part of it, but what? Or doubly better, I mean. To your day-to-day life. Yeah, well, look, when you have four kids, they're a gang. Like, they're, they gang, they take over the family.

You can't, no longer can mom and dad control the four kids because they gang up on. If they have a righteous fight, they all want to fight together, all four of them get together. It's hard to stop all four of them. Correct. Where two, you can still, two versus two. We can deal with that. But you can't take, the whole gang's tougher. Right.

And I compared a lot to whack-a-mole. So, like, if one, you can still. has a problem. You're like, let me deal with that. Oh, saw, boom. There comes another mole up. Oh, great. Now this one has a problem. Wack that one. Boom. Oh, Dad, I got a problem over here. What if all four moles come up at the same time? It happens. And it's a terrible day. It's a terrible day.

Hey, good news. That's what it's all about. Thank you. That was Tell Me Something Good. On the Bobby Bones show now. Old Dominion. I got Matthew and Trevor here on. Hey, guys. We got lots stuff. First of all, I want to talk about something that I see a lot. I've not seen it with you guys. And actually, the picture I'm looking at of you guys. You're not doing this.

This is a perfect reason to ask it because I'm not picking on you, but picking on bands in general. Why in most band pictures are bands looking different directions? What's happening in all the different directions in band pictures where that's a thing? You're just really tired of being with each other. Band pictures are tricky, man. There's not much different you can do. But I'm telling you, like the picture that is on my desk here now, all of you guys are looking forward, like a normal picture where someone says, hey guys, we'll take a picture, look, but a lot of band pictures, like someone's looking at Haley's comment,

there's a worm on the ground for another member. Why do you think just generally, because that's a pretty common thing, and I'm sure if we look back at your pictures, you've done this too at some point. Why do you think that was a thing? I think, you know what I think it is? I think it's because it's really tough. The more people you get in a group, it's really tough to get a good face on everybody. So if everybody's looking somewhere else, there's a better chance that one person who's looking at the camera

it gives you the good face and it doesn't matter what everybody else is doing. I'll accept that and move on. Next, Lunchbox saw one of you guys recording yourself playing golf. Which one was it? That one. It's probably Brad. Yeah, Brad.

Well, Lunchbox just pointed it and said that one. You're pointing at the screen in front of the screen. Yeah, don't know names. Okay, so it's not Trevor or Matthew. No. Okay. No.

That one. He said that Brad showed up with a camera and set it all up like a full, you know, influencers and then recorded himself at the driving range, hitting golf balls from different angles. And which I didn't hate. I mean,

he just wants to get better at golf. But is he generally the guy that likes to be on camera? Is he just a big golfer? I think he's just a big golfer. I've never seen somebody be so dedicated at something to be so pretty good at it. That's hilarious.

Dang. I like it. That's hilarious and I like it. Yeah. We're going to play a little song by you, guys here and we'll come back in a second but i don't know you guys both of you guys wrote this song um also with brad and jessie jo dillon so i'm always curious about where did this start who had it in their phone who had a couple lines like how did this song come together it was uh actually brad had the

little guitar lick and that beat going when we showed up to his house and and and i think jessie jo actually had the title memory lane but she didn't really know you know anything past that And we just sort of started riffing on it. And somebody said, you know, if I could buy a house on memory lane. And then it kind of zapped us all into this world where we were all suddenly on our own little, you know, journey in our minds, I think. And we were just kind of all reminiscing. And it kind of went line by line from that point.

It wasn't like we were trying to write around some sort of hook like we do sometimes. We were truly just kind of in it emotionally and seeing where we could go with it. Go on the Bobby Bones show now. Old Dominion. You were talking a second ago about Memory Lane and maybe Jesse, Joe Dylan, had come in with a song title. I have a song title. I just,

I haven't written it with the right people yet. You guys may not know me. I do a little comedy music, a little thing. You know, maybe I do a little thing. It ain't any Old Dominion. We've heard, we've heard. Yeah.

Although we did used to play after Old Dominion back when there were babies. You know what I mean? Oh, yeah. They've surpassed us. Don't worry. They far surpassed us at this point. I want to brag. but I got a title.

It's a love song, and it's called Breakfast for Dinner. I don't think you should eat breakfast for dinner, and I don't want to eat two meals. If I'm eating and my wife's having breakfast, I don't want to have lunch. We can't do that. But I'll do everything for you, including have breakfast for dinner. So if you guys don't want to write in that and send it back to me and make me one third the writer, and it's got to be funny, that's cool. Have at it.

Man, that's a lot of parameters. You're going to get a full third for that? I gave you the whole idea and the inspiration of it. I mean, what else is true? I mean, that happens. I mean, I'm already sure. What I would do is go, like, I'm having beer for breakfast and breakfast for dinner. I don't drink beer.

That's what I would do. Or I could have, see, it's like all the things I never thought I would do because I love her so much. Like, I never thought I would remember to put the toilet seat down. You know, I thought I never would care. I would never buy furniture that I didn't have to put together, like to buy something. and I do whatever. Oh, take a break from work. Yeah, go on vacation or not worry about always being thinner.

And for you, I do anything, even have breakfast for dinner. You know, it's kind of like that situation. I see where you're going with that. All of those things sound like sacrifices. Breakfast for dinner sounds like a cop-out, but I think it's a little bit. But I hate breakfast for dinner. But that's the thing you're missing. Really?

There's no way. I should never have eggs. afternoon and every meal and i would never after 6 p.m. eat cereal with a spoon see follow me we're doing cat and a hat rhymes here for songs and i do anything so feel free to finish it and send it back and then we'll we'll see what happens you know like sometimes in a set in a writing session when we're all sitting around throwing around ideas you know you come in and you're like this is my idea and you know you thought it through and you pitch it to the guys and everybody goes you know I have this idea which basically means that idea was not going to be written that day and I feel like

we might be in one of those situations well I have this idea the interview's over oh yeah no I mean we all got great ideas here today don't we boys yeah how about that to be fair you know we wrote a song called song for another time and I pitched that idea to about 10 to different writers and they all shot it down. So maybe we're just not the people for it. I guess you're not. Maybe we are though. I don't know. I'm going to get back to you on this. Thanks. See? The wheels are turning. Trevor knows. And I'm going to tell you what, Matt. When Trevor goes solo, you think you know who's going to be up here doing his promotion?

Trevor. And you know who ain't getting invited? Matthew Ramsey. So stuck on that egg. All right, look, they got some stupid music out today. It came out on Friday. Who gives a crap? I'm just kidding. Okay, look. You know I'm a massive fan. Like, I couldn't be a big. bigger fan of you guys's music in general. You write excellent hooks, but also the songs. Always have depth unless you purposefully go, we didn't want this song to have depth. Like I just am such a fan of your music. And this EP that you put out, it's the memory lane EP. Why an EP, which means EP for those that are out there listening, it's eight, I mean, it is eight songs. It's almost a full record. Why not like 12, 18 songs? Why not like a bunch of

stuff? Because we're just not done with it yet. So the rest of it's coming. Oh, so it'll be part of the whole thing. Yeah, it's part of a larger project. We actually just got a text this morning with some updated mixes and stuff. So we have actually a lot more music that we're working on that will be out sooner than later. That's a good answer. I'm still a little hurt by the whole we're not the guys for you. I know a lot of songwriters. You guys will never write in this town again. Oh. I do want to play. We're going to come back with that for one more little deal here. But what is all your number one singles here? Because I have all of them.

Which one for you guys are like, man, we've played this so many times that you can just play it by heart where you almost don't even have to think. All of them. For me, none of them. For me, I'm always like. Yeah, you have to sing. Do I remember this? Any prompter? You ever use a prompter?

No, no prompter yet. But I can see that in my future. But I've definitely had to have, you know, lyrics take to the ground before. but that's usually when we're playing something new that I want to, you know, make sure I remember. But with the hits and stuff, I get, if I don't think about it too much, I'll be okay. But you can also, like, luckily, with a hit, the crowd will take over for you if you need to. Yeah, I've been there. Don't worry.

We do Hobby Lobby, Bobby. Everybody sings it out loud. But don't worry about us. We're just pieces of crap, according to you guys. Hey, Matthew, a question for you first. Has your insurance gone up just generally? I did get a, I did. get a suspicious call from our business manager suggesting that I up my life insurance policy

for some reason. Can you like walk us through your last couple to few injuries? Oh my God. Well, the last couple where I fell off a ladder a couple years ago and broke the rib, punctured the lung, tore a ligament. And then just recently rolled a like side-by-side UTV thing and broke my pelvis in three spit places. So I think I should be good for another couple of years now.

Yeah, it's funny because our business manager called all of us and said maybe we should spend less, just in case. I wasn't just in case he stands all the money. I didn't know where that was coming. Just the case the cash flow dried up suddenly. Yeah. That's funny. You guys are out and again, you guys are excellent live.

It's no bad vibes 2023 tour. We got a lot of great artists that are coming out in various states with you guys. my question for you guys is how do you look for openers like what do you look for whenever you put people on a show with you man it's been really tough because it used to be you know just looking for someone who was available everyone's so busy so we we used to try to find somebody that could do the entire tour and that really limited us and when it came time this time we started to do that and then we thought well man why don't we just find people that we like and people that our fans will like that can just do maybe a couple of shows and see if we can put the pieces of the puzzle together like that. So, you know, yeah, we just try to find something that will be, you know,

it's the no bad vibes store. So we're trying to find good vibes and happy energy and, you know, artists that can support that. And I feel like we got it. Trevor, let's end on this. Give me a good Kenny Chesney story of something hanging out with Kenny where you just live in life or you're back, you know, in between shows. Give me a Kenny Chesney. nugget in with. Hmm. Well, let's see. There's so many. Let me think of one I can tell. You know, it's always fun is doing the ice bath. This is the one thing that it's a little behind the scenes that people don't realize he travels with an ice bath. So it was fun.

You know, I was out there with a couple of my kids and I got to torture my kids a little bit by sinking them on the ice bath and watching Kenny Chesney lean and whisper into their air for a couple minutes and talk them through it. So that was that was interesting behind the scenes moment. That pretty G rated there. I like it. We made it mad. We made it mad this weekend. A couple of us were in, we're in Key West. And we kept, we were out on a boat and we kept FaceTiming him. He was like, stop FaceTiming me. I cannot answer it right now. He's probably doing his own beach. He's doing his own beach living. Guys, love you guys. Love the music. Good luck. And hopefully I'm sure we'll see you soon.

And don't forget, breakfast for dinner. You got my number. Hey. All right. Feel better, man. All right. It's like, all right, yeah, yeah. It's like when you sit someone at a party and you really want to go away to the next person, you're like, all right, well.

All right. There they are. Oh, Domeny. Bye, guys. I like breakfast for dinner. See you guys. A win is a win. A win.

Tell me something good. So there's a Beagle Rescue Place in Raleigh, North Carolina. It's called Triangle Beagle Rescue, and they took in a beagle named Honey from Kentucky that had four puppies. Well, sadly, three of the puppies didn't make.

it. So she was just there with her one lonely puppy and then a vet calls and says, hey, I need help. I got some beagle puppies that need a home. Well, guess who adopted these puppies and is now feeding them, caring for them, making them her own? Well, I don't think it's going to be a tough guess. They're a character living and one character introduced. Yeah, yeah, yeah, only one. It's a cool story, but yeah, the easy guess. I mean, yeah. That's cool that a dog. Yeah, she's nursing them, caring for them. Like, does that naturally. Like, it's amazing. And the surviving puppy from her litter, sweetheart, that she's like letting these other puppies come in and like hang out with her eat. Do all the things?

Do all the things is a good way to describe it. Okay, so you want the names of all the puppies? So there's honey. How many puppies? Honey. There's honey. And then there's her puppy, sweetheart. And then the new ones that came in, Cupid Cupcake Kisses, Lovely, and Archer.

One dude. That's the one dude. That's the one dude. Archer. That's a good story. Great job. That's what it's all about. that was tell me something good

it's brilliant until you get caught doing it this guy would go to dinner and have a dinner and they would have a heart attack at the end of dinner and he would not pay and because he had a heart attack well he slump in his chair he's got to go to the doctor of course you don't make him pay he did it 20 times that's terrible not the same place right

no but you become known as heart attack guy after a while it doesn't matter how big a city you live in so one of the restaurants owners talking about how the guy ordered several glasses of whiskey and then started like convulsing having a health episode. Another one said he pretended to faint and slumped himself down on the floor. And it's just all these people that go, oh yeah, we had a heart attack guy at our place.

So they put him in jail. He won't pay his fines. Well, he probably needs to have heart attacks to get out of his fines. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. Needs we go to what he calls the medical. Affirmary. Yeah, that's what it's called.

Thank you. The restaurant owners are now planning to file a joint complaint, which could land him up to two years in jail based on all the money that he stole. because he would go hand and order everything. Gosh. What a scammer. You know, one set works like seven times. You have retired that.

You got to think of a new one. He's like, man, it's working. Why stop now? It just can't go forever. I mean, let's see how many restaurants, lunchwalks could get away with in town. Again, no, that's stealing. I'm not going to jail.

It's breaking the law. I'm in there and done that. slash express.com with that story. So I wanted to share that one. If you have a scam that works, you can't go on forever. That's what we learned here. at about four start to develop a new one

at about seven move off to the new one. Got it. All right, time for Amy and the morning corny. The morning corny. What did the ghosts say to her kids when they all got in the car? What? Buckle up your sheet belts.

That was the morning corny. Got it. Ghosts. Are they sheets? They wear, well, fake ghosts wear sheets. Exactly. Yeah, exactly. Thank you, Amy, for that. All right, healthy superfans or super dorks.

They're Costco superfans who have traveled over 220,000 miles. They visit over 200 Costco warehouses. They've done them all here in the States. And in 14 countries total, they love the megastore. Now, I'm going to read you this story, but I'm going to ask you what's the nerdiest thing that you do. I don't think it's going to be as nerdy as this. I can appreciate if they love doing it. Good, good for them.

But in the last seven years, David and Susan Schwartz have very, went to visit over all these Costco's. Wow. I mean, hundreds of Costco stores that they've been to. What's the difference? Nothing. Yeah, they're all kind of the same. They said, we went to Paris and didn't visit a single museum, just Costco.

No. Our friends really struggled to understand that. They went on a 1,582-mile road trip from New York to Omaha to see the Omaha store. Oh, my gosh. When they checked off their final Costco in Ohio, they gave him a big old cake saying, congratulations, you did all of America. He is a former investment banker. and he was just kind of like, what do I want to do?

I love Costco, so let me go drive around and see them all. Maybe I'll write something about it. But yeah, so that's it. They're seeing the Costco's. So healthy, super fans or super dorks? Super dorks. I mean, this is the dorkiest of dorks. They've wasted so much money traveling to Costco's when they are literally almost all the same and they got a cake.

I mean, the fact that they said, oh, our friends don't understand. The fact they have friends is shocking. Super dorks. Would you go to and think it was fun to do every Major League Baseball Stadium? Yes. Okay, I would say that's the same thing. No, every Major League Baseball Stadium is different. Well, they all have the bases that are exactly the same distance.

No, no. They all play by the same exact rules. No. Just like every store is going to be built the same dimensions. They probably sell hot dogs there. Yeah, they're very similar. No. I think going to all the Costco's to me feels lame, but I can't really say it's super dork if I'm not going to call myself a super dork.

Yeah, but also for Lunchbox, I mean, he would travel the U.S. visiting all the real world homes. And he waited hours to meet a person. pregnant teenager. Yeah. No, she was not pregnant. She was not pregnant. She was a teen mom, though.

She was famous because she was a pregnant teen. How long did you wait? Hour and a half. So, what's the nerdiest thing you do, Amy? Bird bingo. What? Bird bingo. You have bingo cards with birds on them?

Yeah, I mean. You see one, you put a thing on her. I love it. I mark through it. So I have a laminated thing, and then I have like a dry erase marker. So that way you can start over, like once you've finished. And when you see the birds. because sometimes I have regular visitors at my feeder and I have others like just this week.

An owl showed up in my backyard. I've never been able to cross off an owl in my yard. It's Berg Bingo in my yard. Not just, you know, if I'm hiking in the park. I don't get to cross anything off, but Bard Al check this week. Yeah. Eddie? That's cool, Amy.

Man, okay, so I spend a lot of time on Google Earth. So I watch old black and white movies and then I find out where they were shot. And then I go to that location on Google Earth to see if anything's changed. Sometimes the buildings are still there and like that's crazy. And then you move the Google Earth camera to match what's on the TV screen and I pause the TV screen. Like, that's really cool. That's so dorky. I love it.

That's awesome. Lunchbox? Oh, man, I'm going to admit this. I keep my stats for my soccer games. Your adult reclake soccer games. That is awesome. You keep them where? I just write them down on a piece of favor when I get home.

And I'm like, all right, two goals scored, one assist. and however many minutes played that's hilarious. Amy, why did you turn your chair away from him? Are you cringing? A little bit. I'm like, how many minutes played? Like, have you ever had to go home and be like one minute?

No. Okay, what's the lowest? Oh, 20 minutes. I don't think he would go play the game if they didn't tell him to play a lot. Yeah, in one minute I wouldn't even worth my time. No. So I just keep the stats at the end of the season. I look at him like, oh, man, you had a pretty good season.

And I throw it in the trash. And then next season. You should keep it in a binder. You should do a diary. I saw Dear Diary. I made a goal at the 340 mark. Hey. It felt good.

You have a little diary now. I don't know if you want me to ask about it. I don't know. I don't need to ask about it right now. But you have something you're writing in lately. I've never seen it before. Yes. Yeah.

I keep so many notes on things here at the desk. That's new. So I keep notes on everything. I write notes. I put on my phone. I just needed a different place for a different set of notes. I like it. That's what I do.

Notes are scribbles. I have daily things I need to accomplish in my phone that I check every day. I have things during the show that I need to talk about or do. And this is other creative projects that I'm working about here. All right. When I walked in your office today, you were writing that and I was like, oh, is he journaling? I don't know. I think Amy's amazing.

That's funny lunch. If I was one of us doing it, though, you'd make fun of us. For sure. That's why I never admitted it. Yeah, that's good. Morgan, do you have anything? Yeah, so every Thursday night when there's a Marvel movie release scene, I go to the premiere. Like ever since I binge watch the first part of it

Now I have not missed a single Marvel movie premiere You've been a big Marvel person Like you're a little too normal to be that into it Oh no and I love it And I'm dressed up as multiple of the characters Not the bad thing I just don't assume people That have good balance in their life really get that into stuff And you're dedicated to that

That's cool I like it because again you're not hurting anybody It's fun. I like I'm going to all the Costco They're super fans. They don't hurt anybody They're enjoying their life They know what it's all about I probably One of mine's similar to Eddie's,

I'll go on deep dives of every 90s person in the history of sitcoms and I'll read their whole Wikipedia. I'll go search their Instagram, see what they're up to now, or if they're dead. So I do that. I think it's why I know everybody's name

that was in a show. But probably the nerdiest thing is I followed football and basketball recruiting rankings with all the high school kids. That's curiously. Starting in 10th grade. 10th grade?

I mean, you want to get ahead of it. Like your junior year from 10th to 11th grade, you get your first rating. And so I'll follow them. I subscribe to two services. You're following some now? I don't follow them on Instagram. No, but I like follow and see where they go.

You're good at their games or anything? Like if they're in town? Listen, I don't want to... No, I don't. But I'm not saying up to... It just already feels weird because I'm following what's 16, 17, 18-year-old kids are doing with their life. Yeah, but somebody's doing that for a job.

I know, it's not my job. I'm paying two different services to do it. Just to see where they're going. So that's probably it. Now when borders, it's not creepy. It's not. But I'm just really invested. If you follow them on Instagram, that'd be creepy.

I'm not. I don't follow a single one of them. That's right. And you turn the radio on and the dial just keeps on turn. That it's trying to put you through. Mike is right in this week's next bit. And Bobby's on the mic so you know what this is. Bobby Vaughn's show.

Bobby Bone Show. Story of the day. This story comes us from Minneapolis, Minnesota. A woman went on a trip to Kenya. She's on her way back. And she's like, ooh, there's some giraffe poop. I want to make a necklace out of that. So she puts it in a box.

Is that a thing, by the way? I've never heard of it. Okay, go ahead. But you're not allowed to bring that stuff back. She tried to smuggle it into the U.S. and got stuck. Stop in customs. You can't bring like P.C.

Or anything that has any... You can't bring food, really. Yeah, much less poop. Yeah. But giraffe poop as a new... as a necklace. Interesting. Yeah. I mean, that's Bart Bonehead just wanting to make a poop necklace?

I think there's probably something to that, though. I don't think she just sees random poop and goes, I like to wear that on my neck. There's got to be something about giraffe poop necklaces. Do they have an interesting form? No, I have no idea. I've never heard of it before. But I'm just saying, I don't think anyone just sees poop and goes, I want to make it into a necklace. I mean, they look like Hershey's kisses. I mean, big Hershey kisses.

So it looks like you're wearing a bunch of Hershey kisses? Hey, you know what's good? Those Hershey Kisses that are cookies and cream? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I accidentally got some of those and they're really good. I just wish they weren't individually wrapped. You accidentally got some of those.

That's what kisses are. What does that mean? Well, I was clicking Walgreens because I needed some milk for cereal. And it popped up as one of those things you may want to accidentally push. Oh, yeah. So I accidentally pushed it. Is this how you talk to your wife? Is it?

What had happened was. I accidentally. Yeah. So they're pretty good. I like them. So then what happens to her? They said she could face up to a fine of $1,000 for trying to smuggle the poop in. Yeah.

You can't even walk fruit across the border from Mexico. I thought that was because of the seeds. You can't, like, plant that fruit here. Sure, I think it's all because of either bacteria or seeds or disease. Yeah. Oh, it's, I thought it was the seeds, too. You're saying you can't bring it because of disease? There's a lot of stuff you can't bring across because of, even the seeds could have disease.

Meese? Slees. I didn't think about that. I was always nervous. I always like to take my own lemons when I would go to Haiti to visit the kids. And I would always get so nervous. I was going to get busted with my. What are you in for?

Smuggling lemons. Right. I know. Now my new girlfriend. Hey, I always made it. All right, thank you, lunchbox. I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day.

We end the show today. I just want to remind you to Mr. Bobby Bones on Instagram or Bobby Bones.com. See pictures and videos to the music we're listening to. It's all out there at Bobbybones.com. Would you agree with that statement, Amy? Yes, 100%. Thank you very much. Have a great day, everybody.
