That's AMU. APUS.org.org. It's time for the Bobby Bones Post Show. Here's your host, Bobby Bones. Alright, a couple things. Wait, I got mail? Oh, this is the, is this the prison letter? You got a letter from prison? I thought, this was, when Mike said a letter from prison, I thought it printed it.

Or it was like email from prison. I don't know. I got a prison letter. Wow. I don't know if I'm going to get to that today. Hey, from where? That's legit. Tain Quentin?

No. Rikers Island. Beaumont. Alcatraz? Oh, Beaumont. Oh, yeah. That's a good one. That's a good one.

We've had some Beaumont. Yeah. I imagine it's a medium. medium security. Okay, cool. It's long. We may not get to that today, but it is very interesting.

We may do it in Monday's post-show because I only have like 20 minutes. Then I'm going to speak. Scooby, do we find the official group name I'm speaking to today? Leadership music. And so it's people all throughout the industry that could be like entertainment lawyers. They could be in radio.

They could be record labels. Eddie came in and said I was talking to a Christian group and I was like, great. And now I'm told it's not. not. I heard leadership and I knew Gator was involved, so I just assumed, unfortunately. Oh, no, that's just a business. That's just people that get in the industry. Yes, exactly, yeah. Hey, man, I just heard them talking about that. So that's what I heard. This is how a rumor. I was told that, Eddie. You too? I told them they were in the building to

don't say any bad words. Eddie asked me about the prayer I was going to lead at the beginning of it. And I was like, great, I'll do it at the beginning of the end, whatever they want. And so in my mind, I'm like, okay, I'm going to switch this up a little bit. It's going to be more. a little more values-based. Right. But no, it's a literal industry group of people. Yes, yeah, I just saw leadership. I was like, almost something to do God.

The cussing is just like having respect for professionals in the building. I think it was more of Christian. Yeah, they said, no, I was told that, hey, guys, watch your language. There's Christians in the building. That's what I was told. That was the exact quote. The Christian's in the room, too, be going to watch your language. Okay.

That makes sense. So anyway, I'll still do the prayer, though, if you're comfortable. So people still, are you familiar with leadership music? Yes. Okay, gotcha. So you already know. I don't have to give you the whole breakdown then. No, all good. All right, cool. Thank you. You're welcome. Keep the morals value thing, though.

Yeah. Why not? Well, they want to know about the business and the industry. Okay. Pay money to like that. Yeah. Okay. Let's see. Can smelling old food really tell you tell you if it's safe to eat or not? Yes. 100%.

No. Do you ever use sniff tests, everybody? Absolutely. Like chicken? Oh, raw chicken? 100%. Raw? Well, if it's raw, you don't eat it anyway. No, no, raw. Before you cook it, you know it's not good. Even if you eat the raw chicken, you smell it.

I don't care what it smells like. You sniff it. Oh, that is gross. So, according to food scientists, there's an important difference between food safety and food quality. There's no way to tell if a food is safe based on smell. Really? Safety you cannot tell based on smell. And it rhymes so you can remember it.

Okay, safety, because, like, I guess spoiled milk, you can still drink it and not really get sick. Really? I think so. I don't know. I feel like it makes me want to get sick right now. You can tell the quality has gone down. But it doesn't translate to it not being safe. In one example, if your milk smells sour, you don't want to drink it.

Come on. But it won't necessarily give you food-borne illness. Okay. Thank you. Well, that's good news for my kids. Sometimes I smell milk. I'm like, okay, no cereal today, but now I'll be like, you go up. Don't even tell them.

Let it rip. Let it rip. Let's see. Here's a listener question from the mailbag. Hey, studio. I heard you talking on the post show about what your prior job was before you're on the show. And it got me thinking, what would everyone's job be if the show does end? Have a nice day. Zachary P.

We're going to say no industry. For real, for real job or like a dream job? No, what you literally would do if you were not able to work in the entertainment industry. So I'm going to remove any of that stuff. Oh, wow. The whole umbrella. Oh, so we're not talking reality TV. But you don't know that you can do that.

Because you tried it and it didn't work. Yeah, but. Real job. Golly, this is so hard. Yeah, it's tough. You're removing anything that I have done the last 16. Yeah, exactly. I mean, that's so hard.

If you had to go into the real world today. Guys, that's life. That is life. Eddie? Well, you're going to start with me. Well, you're acting like you got on a long... I do not. Such an easy answer.

I do not. I was kind of bouncing between either start the taco truck. It's time. Like, that would be a sign. All right, start the taco truck. Or just buy the boat and it's time to start the charter fishing boat. But you don't... I'd move to Florida.

Can I just say something lovingly and as a friend? I'm not that good of a fisherman. You ain't that good of a fisherman. You ain't that good of a fisherman. I just get a deck hand that knows exactly what to do. And why wouldn't they do it? Ah, come on, he doesn't have the money. Ah, come on, is not an answer.

We accept. I don't know, boats, I didn't really think it out. I know, exactly. Ah, come on. Ah, come on. So you would, a taco truck. Yes. You think I should do that instead of the boat?

Yes. Yeah. The boat has no chance. The boat should be for you to retire and just go ride around in the boat and do some fishing. No, I get it. But no one's going to pay if you're not an expert for anything, really, unless you fool them into thinking you're an expert. People do that all the time.

Just imagine. Eddie moving down. Hey man, how long have you been doing this? About a week and this guy next door. How long have you been doing it? 20 years. I'm going to go with the 20 year guy. I could always say fishing my whole life. How long have you been doing this? My whole life. Like Arkansas Keith is also a striper guide. He knows what he's doing.

Because he's literally been on those waters and fishing. Eddie, you can do it. Why are we hating on it? Thank you, Amy. Like, that's stop. I've been out with some guys and then they know the ocean, the wide ocean where you can't see land. And they know. I'm just saying it's unrealistic in this question because you've never done it. And this, this, I don't know, you've been over five times.

Have you been? Deep Sea fishing? Over five times. Probably 20. Really? In my life. Okay. You know what?

Maybe I'd pay. No, no, no. Been with a guide. He hadn't gone by himself. Oh. No, no. No. Oh, you paid someone.

I paid someone. You know what? Chase your dreams, but I don't think that's. Would you come out with me? Yeah, I would. But I wouldn't pay you. You'd be out of business real quick. But I like talking.

I think that's the realest. one? Open up taco truck. In the same vein, I think I would open up kind of a smoothie stand, like health and fitness, gym situation. I can see Bobby behind the counter with his apron like, oh, would you like a strawberry smoothie or a banana smoothie? Yeah, I see you doing that. You already have a gym, though. No, no, no. Three, but who's counting? And. Oh, three gems. Okay. But I would like be in day to day. working it yeah I'd probably go and get a

then get a trainers certification thank you and probably do that you would be a trainer wow do that be that be cool I don't know what we could laugh at Eddie deep sea fishing

I mean Amy he trains all the time he does thank you you don't train people though do you no but I used to I used to get a whole group classes in Austin of like 40 people I remember that the high school oh yeah that was fun

oh now all of a sudden you're on my team again training and I would I would take it for like nine months Every week until I got the cold. Every week we're out and I was trying to everybody. You got the cold? No, until I got cold.

Oh, okay. You could be a hunting guide. I don't want to kill animals anymore. I got plenty of food. Okay, you do like, ooh, you start a new thing. Hunting guy, but no killing, just seeing. Well, that would be called a tour guide. Or you take a tour through the woods.

We can team up. I do water. You do turf. Surf and turf. That's our trip. Come on. Wow. That's pretty good, man.

Thank you, dude. Yeah. I like it. Lunchbox. Oh, man, what would I do? But you can surf. You could probably, I think you'd be a better surf teacher than a fishing teacher. Oh, gosh.

And maybe I can do both. But I think you. Surf in the morning, fish in the afternoon. Sunset Cruises. That's what I'm talking about. I think you'd be a better, so you could be surf and I would be. I don't like turf because I'm like, unless I'm, I guess training. Like, okay, they go surf with you the morning and they come work out with me on the turf.

And then we'd be surfing turf. Amy, and then you can do yoga. And then we'd solve crimes. That'd be our team name. Surf and turf. Bones, I think we're on to something. He was solve crime. Lunchbox?

Man, I'd probably be just unemployed. I would have no idea what to do. He's being realistic. He starts crying. It's the one time he gets really emotional. I mean, I think about it. I can be a motivational speaker, but what I motivate people to do. That's in the entertainment speaker.

That's why I can't do it. You ain't angry enough. Yeah. I mean, I guess. He'd be a demotivational speaker. Why do you want to work so hard? His life tips are by the lottery ticket. Is that a thing?

Demotivational speaking? I mean, he'd be the first. Man, I'm just feeling way too good, honey. Is there anything that's coming to town tonight that I can go and just feel like a pile of turds? Oh, lunchbox is doing demotivational speaking? Oh, get two of those tickets. That's funny. That's good.

I mean, it could sell tickets. It might be funny. People are like, you know, I need a little less positive in my life. As a comedy bit, I think it's hilarious. Great. Lunchbox is a demotivational speaker. As something that, you know, people, wouldn't buy tickets to that unless it was a joke.

But it also could be a really funny thing. I don't talk to my agent. But that's entertainment. Your agent? Yeah, maybe I can get a tour going real quick. And also real quick, all those words don't go together. All right, then, I mean, I'll open a soccer gym. I don't know.

Mike, we could write that bit for lunchbox. He could do that. A demotivational speaking segment. We could do that. And then have them do it. Yeah, I'd like to open an indoor soccer facility. That you could absolutely do. But it costs a lot of money.

Take money, make money. This is all hypothetical. Well, that costs about $3 million to do. Three million. You've got to buy land. That's a lot of demotivating from a lot of people. Yeah, that's a lot. Don't even chase your dreams.

It's too much. Why are you chasing your dreams? Analysis shows most people don't reach them. You're wasting your time. Look at this. He's got a laser pointer, but it's shining back on him. It's just a whole thing. I love it.

Lunchbox is a demotivational speaker. Amy, go ahead. Look at her. She had a dream. Now where is she? Yeah. I don't know. Honestly, maybe maybe social work in some form

as that interests me. Why? Because your emotional stability would just be, it would. No, I'm serious. Would be or is? Is. And then going into that situation, you would be wrecked forever. But having two adopted children and learning and growing so much the last year,

I'm super thankful for people that are in that field and I love learning more about that side of things. So maybe. What about a consultant? Right. I understand you love those people in those field and what they do is amazing, but you would have to walk in the pool every night. Mm-mm.

You just nailed it, Bobby. I would be a connector of people. What does that mean? Sometimes when families are going through something, they just need a person that can connect them to all the different networks of support. Like if in the adoption foster care, like I could be a.

You could be a magnet. Is that a real job? It is. Is that a niche you'd have to create for yourself? No, it's a real thing. Because with a niche you create yourself, either you go poor or you figure it out and you're the opposite of poor. There is. Demotivation.

Yeah, good job. You're on it. You're getting on it now. You always find the crappy side of things. Yeah. And I have emotional bandwidth sometimes. Amy, would that be a nonprofit? No, you get paid as a consultant to connect.

You can't be doing it for free. Social workers get paid. No, I know. It's still a nonprofit. You can still get paid for your nonprofit. Well, yeah. If the organ is, yes. Yeah, because.

Yeah, CEOs of nonprofits get paid. They don't do it for free. Right. That's confusing. And they should get paid because they get paid based on the amount of money they can raise. It's a business. And the amount of job that they do. It's always, to me.

So why do they call it a nonprofit if they're really making money? Because the company doesn't make money. The company doesn't make money. But if they want to make a huge difference, you need people that are smart enough to make that difference. And if you don't pay them, they're going to go make a difference for somebody else. So if you have a, let's say you have a company, lunchbox where all your company is is you want to help kids eat candy okay this is just be the company and so you go I don't I don't want anybody to be paid and I want us all to do it for free

and we just want to make sure that we get kids candy everywhere you're going to do a okay depending on the work everybody's able to do is their second now they're going to work harder because they're not getting paid as much well you're getting paid at all exactly so they have their real jobs which they have to have and so they're only able to do this as like a secondary thing nobody's fully dedicated to it. And you do an adequate job because you're just volunteering your time and you're getting some kids some candy and you're like, wow, I feel good about each other. So with all this, you're able to get five kids candy.

Let's say that. Five kids got candy because everybody's working for free, spare time, all volunteer. Well, Eddie comes along and he's like, I got four kids. And if anyone knows how to get kids candy, it's me. But you can have to pay me $10. And you're like, wait a minute, this is a nonprofit. Why would I pay you $10? He go, well, if you pay me $10, I can get 50 kids candy.

And you're like, well, that is a lot more kids. And he goes, for that $10, I can actually raise $700 to get 50 kids candy. So by paying him $10, you have actually made the company 70 times the amount of money and five times the kids are getting candy. I'm going to start a nonprofit now. So whenever I see people complain that someone at a nonprofit is getting paid, I often think they're just not educated on the fact how a really successful nonprofit works and how a really successful nonprofit actually helps.

That being said, there are cases where someone either doesn't do a good job, they're not worth their money, that happens everywhere, or there are times where it's a little shady. Sometimes people start foundations. Let's say, we'll go to Eddie again. Eddie starts the Eddie Foundation. Now, Eddie raises $100,000 every single year in the Eddie Foundation. I like it. and he wants to hire a CEO.

He wants to hire his friend Lunchbox. Now, Eddie has a friend named Lunchbox. And he's like, Lunchbox, if you come in, I'm going to pay you to be the CEO, and I'm going to pay you $90,000 a year. Heck you know. Because you're my buddy. I think a lot of athletes do this.

Absolutely. You're the CEO and you only are able to give $10,000 out. And he only created that foundation so he could give his people good paying jobs. Legit. That's pretty smart, though, because everybody thinks they're doing a good job. They do until they don't.

They do until they don't anymore. You can wash money. through that. So there's shadiness and if there's money, they're shady. It doesn't matter what's going on. But just because you pay someone at a nonprofit doesn't mean that it's bad. It actually is that it's great and they have developed to figure out how to give more and how to get more to give more. And that does cost money. Because if you don't pay someone to do it that's smart, someone else is going to pay them to do it. Yeah. And they're going to go somewhere else. Got it. That makes sense? Yeah. I do think it's a good idea though, candy to babies.

Candid of babies. And I have four kids. I can help with that. Hey, and Eddie, I like that idea about you hire me and pay me $90,000. I like it where you hire me to help you sell candy to babies. You only get $10, dude. Here is... But 700 babies get candy. Right. Or something.

That was simple enough, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was elementary. All right, this is Heather from Kentucky who left us a voicemail. This is about the gift card, I believe, that Eddie got me for my birthday. Oh, my gosh, please. People are torn. Some people are like, Amy was laughing too hard. She was. It was so funny. Amy was lobbying so hard also because Eddie said, man, I plan this two weeks in advance.

Yeah, no way. So it's not like he put a lot of thought into the gift card in the warrants. I didn't plan and I thought about what I was going to get you for two weeks. But even planning for two weeks is a lot to just grab a gift card on the way out of a Walgreens. I was trying to think of what could you really use. Yeah. But I went through all sorts of stuff. By the way, I like it. Yes, of course. It's great. But my only point is I could see where someone could be a little disappointed that their greatest friend at nine. spend $1 and buy them something that or make them something that meant more from the heart. I would never spend $1 on you. But like a specific restaurant he loves Eddie. $1 at a restaurant? You could send them to that instead of the Uber Eats.

I feel like that's the same. Oh. It's actually a step up. It's a step up. Like going to a restaurant getting a paper certificate that's like, hey. Paper? Yeah. Some restaurants don't do that. It's similar.

It's still a gift card. It's the same thing. Now, if you would have got me, like, a 1994 Arkansas Razorback shorts. I looked into that. It was going to be a month. No, because Caitlin got me some of those for my birthday. You looked the same shorts? No, I was looking at something else that you really liked it.

It was going to be a month to get. So, school would take six. And I spent at least two prior to yours. Oh, man. And I said this. Two months. And you know that's at least two. Because.

Yeah, amazing. Yours is on back order. Yeah. I mean, honestly, it was. like, I went through my birthday and I'm like, oh, that was fun. And I'm like, oh, Bobby's coming up. Let me see what I can get him. And by the time I can get your gift, it was too late.

I just couldn't get it. You just don't think of me like I think of you and that's okay. That's your personality. You do other things. Why do people have a problem with it being funny? Well, I thought I don't have a problem. I also like. How is a gift to someone funny?

No, the whole thing was just funny. It wasn't about the gift. It was about you getting a gift card. It was about how impersonal it was from a very personal person. But you don't think that. I love the gift. Right. So why is funny?

I thought it was hilarious that the email said, this is my close friend. I thought I would get a more personal gift. And then I said, Eddie got me a gift card. And Amy freaking did a whole comedy special when I laughed my butt off. And she's going, what's you going to do next? Pay some of your mortgage? And although that would be awesome.

Right. It was also funny because it's not a personal thing. Amy was hating. Amy was being funny. It was just funny. Like I don't, I actually, when the email was read with the emailer, I actually was like, don't say anything. Like, who cares?

The friend got you a gift card. But then. It just was funny. Like getting Bobby something. It's like the dynamic of here of like, you know, this is the Bobby Bone show. Bobby's worked really hard. He's very successful. Yes, shopping for him is very hard.

But it's like being like, hey Bobby, here's some money. He doesn't need. He doesn't need. That's funny. That's funny. That's funny. It's funny. How she lay that out.

That's funny. That's why it was so funny. Stand-up tour, Amy. That's funny. Go sell out tears. These two can do demotivational speaking and gifts not to get specific people. You all are so funny. Ray, can I play this clip, please?

Okay, here we go. Number two. I just wanted to say that gift cards can actually have a lot of meaning. For my secret Santa this year, I got my person flowers and a gift card, and I put so much thought into it because they were yellow flowers. She loves fresh flowers. Her favorite colors yellow. I got her two Donato's gift cards, one for her, one for her granddaughter, because she's constantly wanting to send extra time with our granddaughter.

So I just remember to say gift cards, they can have a lot of meaning if they actually have thought into them. That sounded sweet. Bless you. And also, let me just add this. Just with, we're talking about Eddie and I, specific rule. This is not about anybody else. He said Eddie and I.

So people on Facebook, do we look, well, Amy's being rude because it's a gift card. No, it is a dynamic, a specific dynamic we're talking about. I agree with all those people. I give gift cards to people. Yes. I also, to be completely honest

and fair and transparent, I gave Betty this birthday present. And then he was busy on his birthday, and there was stuff he couldn't do. So I also got him a gift card to a place to go and do something specific. And I loved it. I haven't used it yet, but I love it. I can't wait to use it. Where are you going to do?

What? It doesn't matter. So I don't think gift cards are bad. That's my point. Amy's point is... She doesn't have a point. It's just funny. She doesn't have a point.

Bobby. It's like me being like, hey Bobby, here's some. some of my paycheck. What? All right. I have to go. So you can order food. I don't know.

It's just funny. It's not that funny. There's a new bobbycast that's up and then I want to go. I didn't know people were hating on me so bad. I'm not anti-gift card and don't even get me started on people. You're just talking about one specific dynamic between two specific people. Yeah, it's funny. On the bobby cast, Nathan Chapman is on.

One of the best producers in country music. Three Grammys. 17 number ones is a producer, too, as a songwriter. He was with Taylor Swift the whole time early in her career, multiple albums. That's cool. They did it. Got to go, I got to go speak to either a Christian group of priests. You're about to find out.

Or a group of people that work in media. A bunch of priests in there. I'm going to walk out and we're going to find out together. Father? Father? Eddie, you know, she's only talking about you specifically. Just stop. In our listeners.

Are you hungry? You can get a lot. food right away. I'm going to be honest with you. I don't know what that card is. Oh, no. What? And I told you.

It may be in a drawer somewhere. I need to look when I get home. You won't. Wasn't it for like a... Yeah, a lot of money. Yeah. It's going to put me in trouble for the rest of the month, but whatever. Shut it.

Shut it. Hey, you got priests to go talk to me. All right. Thank you, everybody. Have a good weekend. We'll see it Monday. All right. If you have ever dealt with a traditional home security company, you know the drill.
