Starting point is 00:03:07 It's Christmas, man. It's almost here. It's crazy. That's Thanksgiving being a little latest year has thrown everything off. Yeah, and then like Christmas is Wednesday of next week. So Tuesday's Christmas Eve so that doesn't count.
Starting point is 00:03:21 So it's like next week, I mean this is it because nobody's going to do anything Monday. Oh, man. But yeah, that's it. And then away we go. And then it's New Year's and then it's next Christmas. No, no, no. I don't want to rush it.
Starting point is 00:03:31 No. Yeah, then next Christmas is here. Yeah, Bones. Let's enjoy it a little bit. Go down. Good point. Lunchbox went around his neighborhood, Christmas caroling. So is this wholesome or funny or cringy?
Starting point is 00:03:42 What are we doing here? Oh, no, this is wholesome, man. I used to do this as a kid. My parents would get together with friends and we'd go caroling around the neighborhood. And I realized no one carols anymore. No one goes up and knocks on doors and Christmas carols. So I told my wife this and she was like, well, do you want to do it? And I was like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:58 So I made her text to other families in the neighborhood and we went Christmas caroling. Oh, so they knew you were coming. No, no. Like to come to our house and we had a big group going. knock on doors. Okay, even that's better than two. It's not just you and your family, which by the way, beautiful family, just would have been a little weirder. Okay, okay. Yeah, there's like probably 14
Starting point is 00:04:15 little kids and like... Oh, that's kind of awesome then. Eight or nine adults, it was amazing. And you had your clothes on. I had a Christmas sweater on. Okay, I'm into it then. So the question, though, is why don't people do it anymore? I think because people just don't go to people's houses anymore. Like the old random drop by, that's dead. Somebody knocks on my door, I'm like, why?
Starting point is 00:04:33 Just generally. Who? Okay, but I'm into this. Here is, lunch bikes we'll call it how many people on the group probably 25 wow the lunchbox we'll call it the lunchbox quarter century that's him and his band singing jingle bells here we go jingle bells are we ready who's ready all right one two three jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the what fun is to ride in a one horse soap inside heck jingle bells jingle bells jingle bath Yeah, whatever that bell was. I got feeling it to that bell.
Starting point is 00:05:18 I got a little too close to the microphone there. So is lunchbox the leader? I'm confused. And I say this, he did a good job. He did. I think if people are like walking with him, he can stay on. If he's by himself, he tends to fall off. Sing jingle bells lunchbox by yourself.
Starting point is 00:05:30 Jingle bells, jingle all the way. Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh. Hey. That's not bad. I give him an 83. He'd have got a light bee on that one. But see, with everybody else, he got it. Maybe Christmas girls were my thing.
Starting point is 00:05:49 Those little kids, some of them knew all the words were rocking it. They really did. Here is, what's up with the instruments? The instruments were kind of getting me. They had little bells like on their necklaces. Got it, got it, got it, got it. We wish you a Merry Christmas. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:06:01 Good time to be. Good timing for Christmas and a happy new year. Yeah! Okay, good. Yeah. Did you quit on that one early? Yeah, I didn't know the words. No one knows the words.
Starting point is 00:06:17 I don't know the words. I don't know why someone picked that one. They were like, I'll do this one. And they knew the words. And I was like, uh, uh, how many houses you go to? I like 10. Wow. Everybody come to the door?
Starting point is 00:06:26 No. How many came to the door? Eight. Cool. Did the other two in the house? Don't just didn't come out? I think so. Lights were on.
Starting point is 00:06:33 One lady we could see in there, like she was painting. She's under the table. I guess they were moving in. And so they were painting the walls. And I could see her painting and where the kids are knocking. There's someone in there. There's someone in there. nothing. She probably thinks somebody
Starting point is 00:06:47 wants money or something because I think that's what we all think if someone comes to the door. Not your fault. Just general. But also, if they would have tips you, would you have accepted it? Absolutely. Just checking. Just checking. And we did, there was one person out for a walk. Oh, no. And we just surrounded them and started
Starting point is 00:07:03 seeing it. No, you can't do that. Oh my gosh. They're like, I'm just trying to get home. One more. Deck the halls. I feel joyous. You struggled little on that one. I didn't know the words again. But can you do as much as you can, but do follow la la la la. Deck the halls with bowels of holly. Fala la la la la la la la la la la.
Starting point is 00:07:41 Almost. Pretty good. Only got two laws that were off. Oh, really? Yeah, but it's good. No, yes. Not bad, huh? That's fun.
Starting point is 00:07:48 You're the leader. Let's walk in his new Christmas band. Wow. Let's box in the quarter century. That was awesome. Come into a town near you? Hopefully not. That's a lot.
Starting point is 00:07:56 You got to pay a lot of people if that's the band, you know? Big bands. Okay, so a lot of Christmas stuff today. by the way. That's just starting us off here. Maybe that right there will encourage people to go caroling. I don't know. I'm going to get a shot. Just knocking on doors, it's just, it just doesn't feel good.
Starting point is 00:08:10 But if you have like a Santa hat on and some bells. Then I think Santa's going to rob me in his hide in his face. I agree. I saw Theo Vaughn going around with people from the gym are close to here. They all work out together and they went door to door and nobody was, well, I don't think anybody was scared of them. I hear you. I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:08:25 All adult men, no children. Should we go Carolyn? We should not. That's what I'm saying. It's in a tradition. that is dying and it needs to come back. I think you're right. I would even feel like we're going to watch Careless
Starting point is 00:08:34 because then what do you do? Stand there. Okay. Single clap, go back in. I like it though. Good job. It's the anonymous by me.
Starting point is 00:08:52 Bobby Bones, about six months ago, my roommate, finally got himself a girlfriend. He seems happy. Over the weekend, I asked him what his plans were in case he was thinking about
Starting point is 00:09:05 moving out and living with her. Now, our lease is coming up. I need to plan ahead. He says he's going to stick around for another year. And that we'd be be seen a lot more of his girlfriend too. To that, I suggest we had her name to the lease.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Also, make it cheaper for all of us. He laughed and said she lives with her parents for free, so paying rent isn't something she'd go for. That said, she's at our place five nights a week, is eating our food using our toilet paper, and I think either she or he should be ponying up some cash. How can I bring this up without making myself roommateless? Signed, roommate versus the girlfriend. Oh, the old common, somebody, even if it's a buddy that's there all the time.
Starting point is 00:09:42 eating stuff. This is a pretty common thing. So first of all, you're not alone in this. Secondly, I can see how that would be annoying to you. Before I give you advice, I will tell you, if you do not address this right now and quickly, it will be, you will be so resentful of each other, the entire living situation will be terrible for everybody involved. There will be resentment that has grown from this. You won't even feel comfortable going to the living room. So you got to fix this one way or the other. Do I think she should pay rent? No, she doesn't live there. She is there as part of that relationship. And is she there a little more, the normal, yes. But the conversation is to him. First of all, if she's eating the food and it's
Starting point is 00:10:18 part of your food, that sucks and that's costing you money. That's something that he needs to be aware of and needs to be a part of making sure either A, she doesn't eat your food or B, if she's not going to do it, he needs to pony up a little cash for the food she's eating. Like that's not your fault. She's eating your food. Toilet paper, okay, that's the one where I'm like, unless she's like on the, got diary every day all day. Like the toilet paper thing, you just got to let go. Well, girls do use more than boys. I hear you, but it's toilet paper.
Starting point is 00:10:48 So should she be poning up money for rent? If she's there on, if you're saying five nights a week, I think probably it's probably three or four, probably there a lot. If she's spending the night, there are literally five or six nights a week. That's a conversation with your roommate to go, hey, this doesn't feel fair. But she's not going to pay it. It's up to him. if there's anything you want you have to address it with him not her because she's just at the guy's house
Starting point is 00:11:15 she doesn't owe anybody anything while she's not at least she doesn't live there definitely on your roommate yes so that's the conversation you must have the conversation and you must say how you feel and if she's eating your food don't eat my food anymore or he needs to pay second of all you need to really figure how many nights she's staying how much time she's there how much of the place she's dominating and then talk to the roommate it's like hey it's hard or even have rules and how often she can be there. If it's like time at night, if she's there seven nights a week, if he's not going to help out in other ways. But this is going to be a nuanced situation where you're going to have to talk about it,
Starting point is 00:11:49 have an understanding of how much she's there and how much she can be there. You don't need to put rules on it. But if she's going to be taking up a lot of the time, energy, oxygen, it needs to be reflected in you and your roommate's financial relationship. Amy? Yeah, I think it's worth talking about ASAP. I don't think it means you're going to end up roommate list. He needs a roommate too, probably it sounds like. It's not like they're going to go get a place together because she can't control.
Starting point is 00:12:08 tribute. So I think it's fair to ask him. Like, how do you want to go about this? Because it's definitely not fair anymore. And it's a great way to ask it. How would you like to go about this? Yeah. Hey, how do you expect me to do this? Like, she's here all the time. She's eating the food that I'm paying for. She's not paying rent. I'm going to say she's very rent, but how do you expect me every day to feel like this is fair? Let him answer that question. That's like a hostage negotiation thing where you go, hey, how do you expect me to do this? And then if it just stays bad, then you had to find new roommates. And part of the risk when there's conflict is it could end in a way that's not pleasurable
Starting point is 00:12:43 to you. Right, then it could end up being like the best thing ever. Absolutely. You have to talk about or you're going to get resentful. I don't think she needs to pay rent because she won't pay rent, but he needs to make sure you feel comfortable with the situation. Or call her parents. Do you like Eddie did?
Starting point is 00:12:59 His wife's dad. Like, I'm not married her to know the debt's paid. Exactly. The real only advice we give is you must talk about it soon or you will be roommateless because you will be so resentful. other. So I work on it. This is a good test. It's a good life test. There's some nuance. You have to give and take. Figure it out. They won't be together very long anyway. That toilet paper though, man, you know, they could do something. Yeah, that's how that's where I'm like, dude,
Starting point is 00:13:22 come on. That's a toilet paper, not that big a deal. All right, there you go. Close it up. A voicemail from Matt. Hey, Bones. Morning studio. I have a morning corny for Amy, but somewhat for Eddie. Why did the Mexican take anti-anxiety medicine for Hispanic Love y'all's show. His panic attacks. I love it. So that one's okay? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:45 I feel like that's not. Of course. I always get to talk about it. Oh, you don't need to say it though. No, I mean, yeah. Don't say any borderline, but like. Right. I can enjoy that, right?
Starting point is 00:13:53 Yeah, right. Just you make a job. All right. Give me one more. Hi, Bobby. I'm a new listener. I'm from Fresno, California. I just wanted to tell you that I love your show.

Starting point is 00:18:44 Here's Amy's pile of stories. All right, y'all know I love a good forest bath. And that's just simply going into the woods with the trees and walking and taking it in. Well, if you need a break from holiday stress, tree.fm is available. And you may not have a forest near you, but it's going to bring you all the sounds of a forest. So you just have to listen and pretend and visualize that you're there. Until like commercial hits. Right.
Starting point is 00:19:08 You're like, ah. Yeah. People around the world, they recorded sounds of their own forest. So these are legit forest sounds. They're not made up. Yeah, I just said a weird name of forest bath. I would just call like a forest walk. It's always, it's called forest bathing.
Starting point is 00:19:22 That is what it is called. That's, again, it's a dumb name. I would like, if I'm going to bathe in the forest, I want a bathtub and I want to be in the forest taking a bath. Yeah, well, no. It's just taken in the wood. A walk in the woods. That's what it is.
Starting point is 00:19:34 It's forced bathing. If you just hear that, you have no idea what you think it's a bath. I was picturing a waterfall and you're bathing in it. Yeah, but now. Well, no, you're just, actually, you're just soaking in the forest vibes. And it really is good for you. Even the visualization part, do not knock this. That visualization is real.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Do you know that's what Michael Jordan? She turned on us? I don't know if you felt that, but she just turned on us. So we're going to take a step back and let her do her forest talk. I know that y'all are sports guys. This may resonate with you, but I'm sure you know that Michael Jordan is something he visualized all the time. is making baskets in his head over and over and over and over. Yeah, but that's not the forest.
Starting point is 00:20:06 If you're in the forest, then I'll be like, I want to be Michael Jordan. No, it's like, but your brain, it can really be there. Yeah, but we're talking about visualization. Not forest walking. Okay, but you're visualizing being in the forest if you can't be near one. Let me do it right now. Oh, I wish I was in a bath in the forest. No.
Starting point is 00:20:18 You need to go to tree.fm to get the noises. Hey, we hit. We had a sore spot with her. Go ahead. Have you ever heard of hot Dr. Pepper? Ooh, I saw something on this. Is it a drink, holiday drink? It's going viral.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Eddie probably knows about it because it's really popular. popular in the 60s and the 70s. Got it. It's not funny. Hey, she's on one today, dude. I didn't know why she's on one, but she's on one. Well done. I saw it on TikTok.
Starting point is 00:20:39 Lay back and take it. Okay, go ahead. It's a retro holiday drink that is making a comeback because of a viral video from Morgan Choms. It's got millions of views. All you do is heat up Dr. Pepper in a crock pot or a regular pot on the stove. You add sliced lemons and boil it up, drink it, and that is called hot Dr. Pepper and it's a little hot toddy.
Starting point is 00:21:00 You can drink it as if. is or maybe it doesn't say this here, but if you added a little shot of something. Oh, you have to. And if you take a drink while you're walking in the forest. You're forest. I'm just going to lay back. Take it to you. Go ahead, Amy.
Starting point is 00:21:11 I'm just lay back. Do your last story. All right. So imagine you are at church enjoying a Christmas concert. And then all of a sudden, you're like, what is that beautiful voice? Underwood shows up a church and joins the Christmas concert. Oh, that'd be awesome. That's that game because I don't get to play often.
Starting point is 00:21:43 That's Carrie. That'd be awesome if Carrie Underwood just gets up there and sings. Yeah. Sorry, I'm into lay back and hear more. Go ahead. That's it. I'm Amy. That's my pile.
Starting point is 00:21:49 All right. All right. There's a thing called Missiletoe murders three. That's up your alley. I know it's Christmas, but it's also like... You got my attention. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:21:59 It's a Canadian Audible original, only on Audible. And so, by the way, it's season three. So you can recap seasons one and two. But Colby Smothers from how I met your mother. She was like the main... Familiar with her. She was also like the Iron, like the Avengers. Yes.

Starting point is 00:22:33 Here is a clip of it. Go ahead. After a solid hour of work, I head to the water bottle filling station for a refill. When I notice a man in a gray deer stalker with big fuzzy earflap, surreptitiously snapping photos of various floats, It could be nothing, but I decide to keep an eye on him just in case. After about 10 minutes of collecting photos, the man heads out of the warehouse and through the parking lot. I continue to shadow him at a distance, hoping to get a glance at his license plate so I can ask Sam to run it for me.
Starting point is 00:23:01 As I move between two closely parked vans, I'm surprised to find my route suddenly blocked by a now familiar face. I quickly turn and prepare to head back the way I came, but... Oh, got you with that... Yeah, how we can't know. It's like a Christmas thriller. I want to hear the rest. She has a very distinct voice. Also, do you all know what serptitiously means?
Starting point is 00:23:22 What? I had to look up seraptitiously. She said that the guy was taking pictures seraptitiously. Oh, suspiciously? Nope. Seruptitiously. Yeah, what is it? Didn't even hear the word.
Starting point is 00:23:32 Oh, well, I try to, whenever I hear something or read something new, I'm trying to look it up, secretively. I would have just said secretively, be sure. Yeah, so he was trying to avoid attention while he was taking photos. All right, there you go. Anyway, check that out. It's an Audible original. Thank you very much.
Starting point is 00:23:49 That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With Bobby. Tell me something. The Secret Santa's been crushing it, so no one knows who it is, and he goes to areas or towns that need it in this one town. Hurricane Helene hit, and so Secret Santa shows up, and it just handed out hundreds to people.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Handed out hundreds. Please don't. If you know who I am, don't say it. He says, don't want anybody to know, but that's the whole deal. He finds a place like this every single year. And there are all these people that came forward and they like it helped so much. But it's just the Santa Claus. The guy dressed his Santa, handed out $100 bills to people.
Starting point is 00:24:27 And I think that's really amazing. He has the money to do it. So that's awesome. And the fact that he does it and tries to help so many people on a very person. He doesn't have to dedicate his time to that. But I don't know who you are. But Secret Santa, I bet you listen to this show because this is in an area that we're listening to a whole lot. and I believe everybody should listen to this show.
Starting point is 00:24:51 And if you don't mind, put a little tag on there. Also listen to the Bbone show. Yeah. Because we encourage it. That's awesome. Great story. WBTV, Secret Santa for you're listening. Great job.

Starting point is 00:25:16 Yep. Yeah. It's a thumb. Pretty much. Just like human newborns, they even make, like, funny faces and do all kinds of things, and then they'll suck on their trunk. I wish we could speak to elephants. They, dolphins, elephants, probably most like humans, monkeys.
Starting point is 00:25:33 So smart. Like, they mourn. If somebody dies, they mourn. Like, they know. Elephants wildly smart. There's got to be an invention sometime where we're just like, okay, talk to your animals for a minute. What was the movie with Eddie Murphy? Dr. Doolittle.
Starting point is 00:25:45 Dr. Doolittle, yes. So funny. It's great documentary. Lunchbox. Around 15,000 people visit the ER every year in the months of November and December from decorating accidents. We're talking lacerations, falls, and strained backs. Have you hurt yourself at all decorating?
Starting point is 00:26:05 No. Not yet. Then it's to come. I mean, not yet. I mean, I'm still a little young where I feel like I'm not at the accident age. I feel like, oh, I don't think that's an age. I think that's a slip and fall if you're putting on, you can be 22 in fall and putting lights up.
Starting point is 00:26:20 That's true. I do lean over the edge of the roof and hang the lights. If you fall, your age isn't going to help you there. Well, if you're 22 and you fall, you're in better hands than wind if you're older and you fall. If you fall out the house at 22, you're breaking a shoulder. Oh, yeah, yeah. No, it's going to be bad, but like. Eddie?
Starting point is 00:26:34 Terramisu? No, you're older. Like, did you ever fall? Yeah, Eddie, yeah, you're one of the old. No, no, no, no, no. No, no. No, no. No, no.
Starting point is 00:26:42 No, you know what that is the dessert? Yeah, it tastes like coffee. It's terrible. I've never had it. They burn the top of it. It's like crusty. I hate coffee. It's why I don't like it.
Starting point is 00:26:49 It's funny. You say it's terrible because it translates, take me to heaven in Italian. That's what it means. It means take it off my table. I don't like the taste of coffee in Babelina. That's my native language. Here's mine.
Starting point is 00:27:01 Pound cake. Hmm. Amy, what do you think pound cake? You got its name from? Easy answer. Easy answer. Pound cake. Easy, Eddie?
Starting point is 00:27:12 Probably weighed a pound. That's what I was. looking for? No, but pound cake seems lighter than that. So what happened was, when they started making it, the original recipe called for a pound of butter, a pound of eggs, a pound of sugar, and a pound of flour. Whoa. It's heavier than that. Pound cake.
Starting point is 00:27:26 I took a pound of each of those. So it's a four pound cake? Well, back in the day, it was much heavier. Okay, I was confusing pound cake with angel cake. Angel food cake? That's very light. But also, I don't think pound cake weighs a pound either, though, to your point. Angel cake is very light, but I think even your point is right.
Starting point is 00:27:43 pound cake doesn't weigh a pound anymore because you don't put a pound but if you have a pound of eggs and a pound of butter and a pound of sugar shouldn't it weigh more than a pound yeah four pounds the original though didn't weigh a single okay now we're going no no okay but that's how got a thing eddie's answer was because it weighs a pound which would have been the guess yeah but it actually took all those but there is no number of what it actually weighed because it was like the quarter pounder now it doesn't weigh a quarter pound but the meat is a it's a quarter pound when it's a quarter pound when it's a quarter pound when it's Because it cooks down. Right, right, right, right. Just everything. This is not fun fact. This is my head about to explode the fact Friday. No, no, no, I get it. Every, everything in the recipe is a pound.
Starting point is 00:28:20 So it's a pound cake. That makes sense. Boom. Yes. Thank you. Lunchbox, you already did yours? Morgan, you do yours? Not yet.
Starting point is 00:28:26 I'm confused on the cakes now. I don't know who did one. Go ahead. Okay, so Santa's reindeer, well, they've had lots of names. So Rudolph was almost named Rollo or Reginald. And his grew also had other names. Rollo's awesome. That should have been named Rollo.
Starting point is 00:28:40 Rolo. That's better. Rudolph. Reginald sucks. But could you do the song? Rollo, the red nose. Yeah, that works. It's syllables.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Why would you not know that? I just had to sing it out so I can get it. Go ahead. So the crew also had some other names. They've been called flossy, glossy, racer, pacer, scratcher, feckless, ready, steady, and fireball.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Feckless is the only one I probably not go with in that list. It's scary. Well, it sounds like a bad word too. And a kid. I had to really enunciate that. Yeah, listen them out. Well, there's dancer and prancer. I got a couple more here.
Starting point is 00:29:11 flights today take longer than they used to like a flight from New York to Houston is almost four hours when it was two and a half hours in 1973 what? Amy, why do you think? Because a pound of butter pound of eggs. Pound of eggs. No airlines fly slower
Starting point is 00:29:29 to save on fuel costs. They could go faster. Think that some bull crap? I once asked if there's a speed limit. What I meant was could you just just keep it jammed? you're behind. Like if we're running 30 minutes back, can you just jam it the whole way and go?
Starting point is 00:29:45 He thought you meant, like, are there signs up there that say, like, yeah, like, can we just go all the way pedal to the metal the whole time? But they don't do that. Because he told me they didn't do that. So I was like, so what, is there a speed limit? And he was like, are you an idiot? And I was like, I guess. Because I don't know the answer to that. I know there's not like air cops up there
Starting point is 00:30:01 pulling people over. That would be embarrassing if you're the pilot. Because if I get pulled over, even my wife's in the car, I'm embarrassed. I'm like, oh, man, because I'm about to be demasculated. Because I'm at this I'm surrendering myself to the cop. And I'm just like, you're the boss and I'm the loser, right? Can you imagine if pilot had to do that and all the people in the back on how it bears they be?
Starting point is 00:30:20 Grocery stores sell a total of $5.5 billion every year in impulse buys. Lunchbox, we need to open up a grocery store. Impulse buys. It's impulsing it, $5.5 billion. And then finally, friends went through three other titles. Feclis, rollo. Drifter. No, no.
Starting point is 00:30:41 Insomnia Cafe, six of one, and Friends like us. And the original theme song, which is not on the sheet here, of Friends was not, I'll be there for you. It was a different song,
Starting point is 00:30:54 which was a hit for another band. Do you know the answer to this fun trivia? I watched that Friends documentary thing too, or that whenever they got together. The reunion. Yeah. Do you know, Eddie? No, I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:31:05 Complaint about people not giving you the credit you deserve. But I don't know that one. It's by a band called R.E.M. Everybody hurts. No, that'd be a jam, though. I don't like every song. All slow makes everyone sad before they watch it. I believe, well fact check this, if you don't mind, Mike.
Starting point is 00:31:19 I believe it is, shiny happy people, shiny. It's one of those REM songs that is upbeat. So it is, the original was Mike. Shiny happy people used in the pilot. Wow. In the pilot, too. Oh. Did you ever watch the pilot at full house?
Starting point is 00:31:38 And it's a different ad? No. It's not a, it's not a. Bob Sagget? No, dude. I learned this few years ago. Surely, Mike, you've seen it. Me too.
Starting point is 00:31:46 It's so bizarre. Whoa. The pilot of Full House was not Bob Sagget. Bob Sagitt was not the dad. So what? They had a dad, then they just fire him after one episode? Sort of.
Starting point is 00:31:56 They wanted Danny Tanner or Bob Saggett, but he was doing a different deal. They had a different guy. Then he became available. The guy's name is John Posey. Go look. Just Google on TikTok or YouTube. The pilot to Full House.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Because it is not, even with the, it is not Bob Sagget. That is bizarre. It's like they changed ads. The other one is, and you guys know this one, I am sure of it. And back to the future, it wasn't Michael J. Fox. Yes. You can do it. Eric, Eric?
Starting point is 00:32:28 Eric. Stoltz. Oh, man. And they couldn't get, have you ever seen that footage? Uh-uh. But you know what I did read about that? bizarre. Was that they had almost had all the movie done.
Starting point is 00:32:38 They had reshoot a lot of the stuff. Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah. Eric Stultz. In a totally different movie. He was like more serious. Man, we got really fun today. Man, I am looking at John Posey.
Starting point is 00:32:47 I mean, he was the dad, dude. But no, but here's the thing. The poor guy, he didn't really do much. He just had like cameos in different things. Like, he didn't. Yeah. That was a big. I mean, sometimes just doesn't work out.
Starting point is 00:32:58 Life, man. I show biz baby, as they say. Fun fact, Friday. I'm Anna Navarro, and on my new podcast, bleep with Anna Navarro.

These victims have been let down time and time again for decades and decades by local law enforcement, by federal law enforcement, by administration after administration. The Justice Department through, I think we counted four presidential administrations, failed these victims.
