Best Bits of the Week with Morgan.
It's listener Q& Daytime.
Where Morgan and a show member answer almost all your questions.
Good morning, friends.
It's time for listener Q&A Lunchbox.
Good morning.
Good morning.
You alive over there?
Yeah, I'm alive.
I'm just waking up on a Saturday.
And you know, I like your, you have a normal voice and you go,
yeah, it's Saturday morning and questions.
What do you mean?
It sounds the exact same to me.
No, no, no.
You make fun of my voice so much.
No, no, no, I've never made fun of your voice.
That's not true.
You make fun of my accent, my words.
No, no, no, no.
I didn't make fun of your words.
I make fun of your words sometimes.
But when you say Italian, no one has ever said in their life.
Uh-huh.
And you make fun of my sometimes country accent.
No, no, no.
The only time you have a country accent is when you talk to a country person like
Lainie Wilson is all of a all sudden you're a country girl too.
No, that's a pretty good country accent.
But no, I do it more often than that.
That's just the only time you hear it.
Right.
But right there when you were starting it, I don't know, you went into a lower like,
okay, it's a good morning.
It's called having an inflection in your voice.
No, no, no, no, no.
You're like right now you're...
I'm getting roasted, guys.
We haven't even gotten into it.
I'm not row.
I swear you, it's not a roast.
I just wanted to know if you noticed that you're talking normal right now.
But just when you said, good morning, guys.
You went very...
It's just having fun with your voice.
You know, sometimes it's fun to mix things up.
I didn't know if you did that on purpose.
You like to yell all the time.
Sometimes you're talking normal, like right now, and I don't make fun of you for sometimes yelling.
I didn't know if you were doing that on purpose or if you just, like, instinctually went to,
Good morning, guys.
No, it's not like I'm purposely doing anything.
I just, that's just how I maneuver.
I thought maybe that was your thing to start out the question section.
Maybe I shouldn't give all these shoutouts.
You know, there's some nice things about you in here, but I don't know.
I feel like they should be pulled back.
I don't think.
I think you're taking it as a shot.
I just didn't know if you noticed that you did it.
No, lunchbox.
That's just my voice.
That's just me as a human being existing in the world.
Talking on a microphone.
I don't think you get what I'm saying.
I think you're taking it as a personal shot.
I just didn't know if that was what you did every time on the question section of best bits.
If you started out with a low, good morning guys.
Or if that just, it just happened today.
I don't know.
Okay.
But we just spent two minutes and 50 minutes listening to that.
Well, so the people will find that interesting because I, maybe I heard it, maybe because
I have my hood up, maybe I heard it wrong.
Maybe it was a normal good morning, guys.
And I heard it as, good morning guys.
Can we get into the questions now?
Yeah, let's do the shoutouts, man.
Okay.
My two favorite people from the show, can't wait to listen.
Jody from Oklahoma City.
Oh, what up, Oklahoma City?
Jody.
Do you know my cousin Megan?
Probably not.
Melissa.
You don't even know her name.
Lauren from Oregon.
They're sisters.
Oh, I was like.
Or Michelle, they're Megan Michelle and Melissa.
They're all sisters.
They're all M's.
Yeah.
I really enjoy your brother's sister relationship.
Lauren from Oregon.
Well, you just got a nice dose of that.
What up, Oregon.
I've been to Bend, Oregon.
That was pretty cool.
That's a beautiful spot.
Oregon is really pretty.
I bet Ben, it was blowing up when I was there like a few years ago.
So I bet you it's like crazy blown up.
Like a lot of people moving there.
Yeah.
Hopefully it doesn't ruin the beauty.
of it. Just small little talk right there for me.
Okay. Shannon from North Carolina just wants lunch to know you're the reason.
She listens to the show.
Thank you, Shannon. North Carolina.
Raise up. Take your shirt off.
Spinning around your head like a helicopter.
North Carolina.
We're never going to get to the questions.
You know that song?
No.
You don't know Pity Pablo?
At this moment, I'm just trying to give you a shout-outs.
You literally don't know Pity Pablo?
We haven't even got to the questions yet.
It's okay, but I just want to know if you knew Pity Pablo.
Not off the top of my head
In this moment, no.
You need to listen to that song.
Lunchbox is one of my faves.
Love the excitement he brings to the show.
That's from Melissa.
From where?
I don't know.
She just put her name.
All right, Melissa.
Maybe that's my cousin from Oklahoma.
Sure.
She's married to justice.
No, Melissa's not married to justice.
Megan's married to justice.
Sorry.
Don't mess that up.
Yeah.
Love your dad stories.
You sound like a great engaged dad.
That's Jen in California.
What up, Jen, in California?
Oh, maybe that's my sister's best friend, Jen, that lives in California.
Oh, my goodness.
One more. Tiffany in Texas. Favorite best bits are with Lunchbox.
All right. Tiffany in Texas. Maybe I went to school with it Tiffany and Texas. I don't know which Tiffany that is. That could be a lot of Tiffany's.
Okay. Are you ready for the questions? Yeah, I know the first question. Oh my gosh, Lunchbox. What's your skin care routine? How do you look so young? Guys, I don't do anything to my skin. It's just natural.
You know, I did actually get a skincare question about yours, but I didn't include it. Stop it. You did really? You're lying, right?
I swear.
Like, I don't know what. I was walking in here on a Saturday morning. I was like, I was walking in here on a Saturday morning. I was like,
I'm just going to start out with this joke real quick, and I'm going to hit it.
And the fact that you actually got one, that's pretty great.
But no, guys, it's just all natural.
Okay.
Do you see all the hate that you get online?
Does it bother you?
Do you play the villain?
That's from Elizabeth.
Elizabeth, do I see it?
Sometimes I see it.
Some people tell me about it, but really, let me tell you about my life.
I don't spend much time on social media.
And if I did, I don't care.
I don't care what these people think.
think because guess what? They're all idiots. They don't have sense of humors. They don't know how to live
life. So no, the comments don't bother me. I've been doing this. Let me check my watch.
2025, 22 years. No, it doesn't bother me one bit. Dang, you old. I had to. You set me up for that.
Really? You said 22 years. Or you could have said, dang, you started young.
No, that's not. Because how old are you?
you.
That's fun.
Because your face right now is worth
the whole joke.
I'm 31.
I'm crying.
I never said I'm young.
Okay.
Just making sure.
It was a funny joke.
Yeah.
Not that funny.
You know, I always know when I get you with a joke, you just stare at me.
No.
I just want to make you feel uncomfortable.
And that's an awkward laugh right now.
No, that's my hyena laugh that I thought something was really funny.
Yeah, I'm glad you crack your.
yourself up, but really what it means is, dang, dude, you must be really good at your job because
you've been doing it for so long. That is also true. Like, when people work at a company for like
20 years, they usually get like parties and celebrate it. I get old jokes. Yeah. See, this is what I
got to deal with. I'm very happy and proud of you because you're right. That is an accomplishment.
But yeah, also it was funny because you've been here a long time. I have been here a long time.
I get people, you know, it's weird. What? I've had people come up to me and be like, oh my gosh,
I used to listen to you on the way all the time when in third grade.
when we started listening.
That was me, lunchbox.
No, no, you're not listening.
You haven't let me finish the story.
And they have their kid with them.
That's true.
See, that's what I'm saying.
I was getting somewhere like even better.
And I'm like, well, you have a kid now?
They're like, yeah, they're in third grade.
I'm like, oh, that's crazy.
It's come full cycle.
It's come full cycle.
That's like a full circle, man.
It's like, whoa.
That's when it's like, holy crap.
No, that was me, though.
I don't have a kid yet.
But that was me.
I used to listen to guys when I was driving
to high school.
High school is different in third grade.
Yeah.
That's a young mama.
No, not really.
I mean, if you think, if you think about it, if they were in third grade, they're going back in 2003.
Right?
That means.
And it's still like 29?
29 is not that young to be a mom.
I'm just saying like that.
So she's roughly around my age.
So yeah, they probably were 26, 27 when they had a kid maybe.
I'm like, that's wild, man, full circle moment.
Would you ever have Morgan babysit your kids for a date night?
Natasha from Texas.
Yeah, sure.
I don't care.
I'm not letting anybody babysit my kids.
Here's the thing.
I hire random people off the internet.
So why would I not trust Morgan?
She is a human being that has a heart and it beats.
And she seems like she keeps herself alive.
So I think she could keep three kids alive for one night.
That is true.
I mean, I don't think it would be a big deal at all.
I would totally watch them for you.
you guys. Really? Yeah. Oh my gosh. This is breaking news.
You never asked. Well, I never even thought about it, to be honest with you. Because let me tell you,
some of these babysitters, they charge you a lot of money. And I'm like, guys, you are outrageous
in your prices. No. Outrageous.
Not just hang out with them. Yeah. And trust me, my kids just like to hang out. They're so easy.
I like playing games. We can play games. They can play games. Yeah, they'll run away and hide from
you. It's great.
What is your Mount Rushmore of cringe moment over the years?
Troy from Orlando.
What up, Troy?
Cringe moments.
What do you mean?
Like that I felt uncomfortable or made people feel uncomfortable.
Probably for you that you made people feel uncomfortable because you don't get uncomfortable.
I mean, one of a funny one that jumps in my mind that I still laugh at that I think the artist was so thrown off.
by what I did.
Yeah.
Was when I was interviewing Morgan Wallen.
Oh, yeah.
And you were like, you are a.
No, no.
I was like, his song had just gone number one.
And I was like, dude, what's it like to get your first number one?
What's it like to get your first number one?
Like, who did you call first?
He's like, oh, it's cool.
And I was like, man, you seem pretty chill for your first number one.
And I went on and on about his first number one for like two and a half minutes maybe.
And then he just finally goes, it's actually my second.
I was like
This interview is on YouTube
And I feel like he was just like
This guy has no idea about
And he's right
I had no idea
But it wasn't cringe for me
But I think he felt awkward
Like he was like
Oh yeah
You can tell he felt visibly awkward
Like he felt very like
He was shaking
Like he was like
What is going on?
I was like oh my bad man
So I guess apparently his first was up down
Up down
Yeah
And then he had another one after that
Yeah
Into your defense, I don't know that at the time you really paid attention to the number
ones.
I still don't know what you do.
I still don't.
But you could tell me.
You maybe have a little bit more awareness now.
I couldn't even tell you what the number one was last week, this week, next week.
I don't know who's like, I don't even know what.
I was trying to help you out there.
I don't know what songs are at the top.
There's sometimes they're number one.
I'd never heard of them.
You know a good cringe.
That still makes me giggle and feel awkward myself these days is when you guys ubered me
divorce papers
you think that's cringe
oh that Uber driver
felt so uncomfortable
like when he had to deliver them
to me
he was so visibly uncomfortable
and then I like fake cried
so then he was even more uncomfortable
that's funny
that one was a funny moment
yeah I don't find that I found that funny
I don't know why that'd be cringe because
you're not really getting divorced
that's like uncomfortable
could be cringe to people
Yeah, I'm trying to think if there's any other things that stick out in my mind.
Because, I mean, I just don't, I'm trying to think what would make people cringe.
The bathroom confessions are always hilarious and definitely cringe-worthy.
Yeah, and you know what I need?
I need Scooby to stop sending me pictures of him in the bathroom.
Like if he's in a stall, he'll take a picture of the stall and be like, hey, stall one, it's stall two.
And I'm like, dude, I don't need that.
Like, that's enough.
Like, no need to do that.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
Okay.
Those are some good ones.
Yeah.
I guess those are cringe.
Yeah.
Yeah, you don't see anything as like cringe.
No, I'm trying to think if I've done anything else that you guys find cringe.
Well.
No, that's it, man.
That's all I got.
Okay, I guess you're not cringed-wurly.
What are your thoughts about Jordan not going back on the challenge?
Ashton from Virginia.
What?
I don't know.
I assumed you would know what that meant.
No, I have no idea.
Who's Jordan.
Jordan Wesley.
He's the problem.
There's arguments.
to be made that he is the best challenger of all time. You knew what this was about. You looked like I was asking you a question. I have no idea what she's saying that he's never going to go back on the challenge. I don't know what that. He's not going back on the challenge. Well, I don't know anything about that. See, I don't read spoilers and I don't read outside stuff because I don't want to be, I don't want stuff to be ruined. So I don't Google these people. When they're on the challenge, I watch the challenge. And that's it because I don't want any to find the storyline before the season comes out.
So I'm not sure what that is referring to.
Well, apparently there's no official confirmation that he's done with the challenge.
She's stated that he's filming other projects and might be taking a break,
but also indicated he intends to return in the future.
Right.
That's why I don't know.
I've never heard anything about Jordan not being on the challenge ever again.
It looks like he's, well, she didn't say ever again.
She just said not going back.
So maybe he's like not going back for the season.
That's fine.
I mean, everybody takes a season or two off.
He's got other things.
He just won.
Is he like a big challenge?
guy? Yeah. I met him in Vegas. That's the one I freaked out on in Vegas. Oh, was he at the Iheart
festival? Yeah. He was dating some girl. Oh, was he dating Tori Deal? No, he used to. He was engaged
to her. They got engaged on the challenge. Then they broke up. 23. So it was a different girl? Yeah. No,
I wasn't, was it 2023? Mm. Feels like it was long ago than that. I was going to look him up. He was dating
Star or Ranch or? There's somebody named Ranch? I know. I'm not. I'm just,
just trying to name
Sparkle.
No.
Diamond.
Try that.
I don't say if somebody is named Ranch, that is...
No, check out who he's...
Just type in Jordan Country Singer dating.
Oh, diner.
Is there named Diner?
It says Diner.
There it is.
Not Diamond.
Local Diner Girl.
Just call me Diner.
And see, she's still dating him?
Yeah, it looks like.
Yeah, see, she was at the I-Heart Festival in Vegas.
and he was backstage and I flipped.
I couldn't believe it was him.
Dang, interesting.
Okay.
Yeah, he's,
he is unbelievable.
Like,
he's got one hand.
Yeah.
And he beat another dude at a tug of war thing with one hand.
Oh, yeah.
That's pretty impressive.
Nice.
Okay.
Well, we're going to take a break.
Yeah, he's pretty,
we're already done with questions?
No, we have more.
So,
but we got to take a break real quick.
Yeah, but yeah.
So I don't know.
I would be sad if he never came back,
but like Wes retiring,
do they really retire? Leroy retired, but then he came back to All-Stars.
So I don't know. When they retire, they just need a break.
I mean, they're getting older, they have lives, and Jordan has made so much money, he's got other projects.
Okay.
He's a baller.
There you go. Hot take from the Challenge Master himself.
We will take a quick break. We'll be right back.
You can have opinions. You can have like a strong stance.
And then there's your body having its own program.
I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist and hosts of the podcast, a slight change of plans,
a show about who we are and who we become when life makes other plans.
We share stories and scientific insights to help us all better navigate these periods of turbulence
and transformation.
There is one finding that is consistent, and that is that our resilience rests on our
relationships.
I wish that I hadn't resisted for so long the need to change.
We have to be willing to live with a kind of uncertainty that none of us likes.

I feel like it was a little bit unbelievable until I really start making money.
It's Financial Literacy Month, and the podcast, Eating While Broke, is bringing real conversations about money, growth, and building your future.
This month, hear from top streamer, Zoe Spencer,
and venture capitalist Lakeisha Landrum-Pierre,
as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up.
If I'm outside with my parents and they're seeing all these people come up to me for pictures,
it's like, what?
Today now, obviously, it's like 100%.
They believe everything.
But at first, it was just like, you got to go get a real job.
There's an economic component to communities thriving.
If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they fail.
And what I mean by fell is they don't have money to pay for food.
They cannot feed their kids.
They do not have homes.
Communities don't work unless there's money flowing through them.

On a recent episode of the podcast, Money and Wealth with John Hobriant, I sit down with Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money.
What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth to the people when they're no longer here?
We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth, starting with the mindset shifts.
Too many of us were never, ever taught.
Financial education is not always about, like, I'm going to get rich.
That's great.
It's about creating an atmosphere for you to be able to take care of yourself and leave a strong financial legacy for your family.
If you've ever felt you didn't get the memo on money, this conversation is for you to hear more.
Listen to Money and Wealth with John O'Brien from the Black Effect Network on the I'd Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
I'm Anna Navarro, and on my new podcast, Bleep with Anna Navarro.
I'm talking to the people closest to the biggest issues happening in your community and around the world.
Because I know deep down inside right now, we are all.
cursing and asking what the bleep is going on. I'm talking to people like Julie K. Brown,
who broke the explosive story on Jeffrey Epstein in 2018. 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.

Polina wants to know if there's any side businesses you are pursuing.
Paulina.
I'm always looking for a good side business here and there, you know, a little wheeling and dealing,
businessman, making business deals trying to get that money.
you know, a little shuffle here, a little shuffle there, deal back here.
Yeah, so I'm always on the lookout for new deals.
You just said a bunch of words, and I don't think any of that confirmed that you are actually
doing deals.
Oh, I'm looking for deals all the time.
Gotcha.
But you don't have any active deals right now.
I mean, I got deals upon deals upon deals.
I got offers at my doorstep.
I just got to decide which ones to take.
I see.
You know, there's like tequila brand.
There's this brand.
I mean, it's just like, I don't know.
It's okay.
I mean, there's alpha 10 bars.
I mean, there's all these people just knock, knock, knocking on my door.
Are these advertisers that are coming through the show?
No, no, no, no.
These are side projects.
I have this thing called a pallet.
It's a side project I've been working on.
Oh, there was somebody that wrote in and said they wanted to buy the rest of the stuff that was on the palette.
Yeah.
Why don't you want to do that?
I don't know if that's real.
Who cares?
What do you mean?
Who cares?
If it's not real, it can't be real.
Well, they said they wanted to offer.
Why don't want you try and look into it?
it.
Yeah.
If it ends up being not real, fine, but why don't you look into it?
Then you can get rid of all your stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah, I know.
I know.
All right.
I know.
Do you still get amazing tax refunds, Keaton and D.C.?
What up, D.C.?
Yeah, still do a great job with my taxes.
A lot of write-offs, lot of ride-offs.
I mean, you just have to be very creative with how you do it and how you spend your
money and make sure you keep your receipts.
That way you have proof.
If they come knock, knock, knock in at lunch's door.
Do you actually keep receipts?
Yeah.
I don't know why.
You just don't strike me as somebody who keeps receipts.
I mean, are they organized?
Yeah.
Are they laying all over the house?
Oh, okay.
Yes.
So.
Does it drive my wife nuts and she had, why don't you put them in a folder?
Yeah.
But that's just not my style.
You know, you can easily get one of the, this is what I do with all my receipts.
They're organized by month.
And then I put them all up in the year into a giant folder.
Yeah, I put them in an accordion.
Yeah, that's what I have.
I have one of those.
I bought one.
But they're also all over the year.
I bought the accordion. I labeled them, but then I don't ever put them in there.
Okay, well, that defeats the purpose of said accordion.
But it's sort of like when I was in college and I bought a planner and I wrote out during
the college in the summer I had two jobs and I wrote out every single day I had to work and
then someone stole my planner. So it was God telling me you don't need to be organized.
I don't think that's how that works.
Yeah, then how come I only had it for two days before someone stole it?
Well, somebody just needed it more than you at that moment.
They broke into my car and stole it.
It's an interesting thing to steal.
But I think they stole my backpack and it was in the backpack.
Got it.
Okay.
So they weren't like planner.
Yes.
We want to steal this man's life.
Or they were like, let me see when he's going to be at work so we can come back and break in.
Ooh, didn't you think about that?
Yeah.
Yeah.
But were you actually putting on there at work nine to five?
Yeah.
Okay.
Because I had two jobs.
Yeah.
That makes sense.
Like I had an orientation leader.
So I was like, all right, got to be there from seven to three.
Then Walmart.
Okay.
Well, that makes more sense.
Yeah.
I was like thinking like.
You were thinking I was crazy?
No, I was thinking like you were doing this job.
And every day you just wrote 5 a.m. 10 a.m.
Working on the show.
Nope, nope, that's not how it worked.
That's not how it worked.
No, no, no.
Okay.
Have you read any good books lately?
Love L.B. Week.
Love L.B. Week.
I think that got corrected in my thing.
Jen and Florida.
Jen and Florida.
Let me look.
Oh, Love L.B. Week, like when you're on the best bits.
Yeah, I'd have to get back of you on that one.
You're not doing any reading?
No, I did.
Well, it's a lot harder with kids.
Yeah.
Everything is.
Yeah, I read this one.
No, I'm not going to say that one.
Why?
Why aren't you going to say one?
Because I don't want to, how do I, how do I describe it?
It is going to be annoying for.
half the audience.
I see.
Okay.
You don't have to say it.
But it's,
no, I'm going to say it anyway.
It's called Solito.
And it's about this kid
making the journey to the United States.
His father had come.
And he barely,
he doesn't remember his father.
And he barely remembers his mom.
She came later.
And then he lived with a grandma and grandpa.
And so then it was time for him to come
when he was nine years old.
Wow.
And it's the journey trying to get to America.
How do you find these books?
Are they all recommendations?
Nah,
I was just walking around the bookstore and is on the shelf.
Okay.
And do you read at night?
Like, you go to bed and you lay in bed and read for a little bit?
Usually when I'm taking a poop.
Okay.
I just didn't know with kids when that time is.
It's like, it's like it's something.
It takes a long time to read a book.
It takes a long time to read a book.
Okay.
I was picturing you having some relaxing moment.
and you just, you know, okay.
And so I go in the bathroom and I hide for 20 to 25 minutes.
Yeah.
And that's when I read.
And that is my relaxation.
I sit in the stench and I sit there and I read a couple pages.
Okay.
And so yes.
So.
I should not have asked that question.
I regret everything.
Why?
Because I didn't need to know that part.
But that's when a lot of people read books.
Okay.
But yes.
Anyways, do you have any others besides what is it?
Solito.
Solito.
I'm reading, what is it called right now?
The small and the mighty maybe?
Let me check it and make sure that's the name.
The small and the mighty, you want me to Google?
Yeah, and the mighty.
Twelve unsung Americans?
That's it.
Nice.
It is 12 unsung Americans who changed the course of history from the founding to the civil rights movement.
And it is.
Sharon McManon.
Yeah, she is, so she was a government.
and something else teach her.
And then during the pandemic, she just started doing stuff on Instagram,
like telling you what's going on in the government,
like just explaining it in normal people terms.
Yeah.
And she got a huge following.
And then now she wrote a book.
I love that.
And so it's just your,
it's like people that shaped America that you never hear about.
It's pretty interesting.
That does sound good.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, that's about it.
I mean, I don't know anything I can think of right now.
That's okay.
Two books is good.
Thank you for your recommendation.
Oh, and I read Green Eggs and Ham the other night.
We read Paul needs specs.

They liked a singing dog.
My kids tell me,

Can she read that one?
Frog on a log.
Nah, that's not it.
That's not it.

Hold on.
Hold on.
Can we do them?
We got to go.
We got to get these questions.
and when will you have your own line of sweatshirts?
Dan in Falls, Church, Virginia.
I don't know what you mean by that.
Like, are you ever going to have your own line of sweatshirts that people can buy?
Because all you wear is hoodies.
It's called, there's a hole in the log on the bottom of the lake.
That is a long title.
It is so fun.
Okay.
It is so fun.
Thank you for those recommendations.
Sweatshirts.
I never even thought about that, be honest with you.
You've really never thought, like, I wear hoodies all the time.
this is kind of my signature thing.
You wore one to the TMA Awards.
Why have you not thought about, hey, I should have my own hoodie line.
Because I wouldn't even know how to design them.
Okay, you pay somebody to design them.
Oh, really?
Yes.
They're graphic designers.
Oh.
Like, I mean, I don't even know, like, what would you, because here's the thing.
I don't know anything about fashion, so I don't know what you.
You could have something that says all I do is when you could have something.
I bet that's trademarked.
Maybe.
Okay.
Well, you could do just different things.
You could just come up with cool designs and they're just cool hood.
that like you would wear.
They don't have to say anything.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I'm never even thought about it.
But that, hey,
now you can even do like the really popular ones right now or to have teeny tiny words,
like right in the middle of chest.
You could just one that says LB.
Really?
Yeah, it's really popular right now.
Oh, see, like I don't know what's popular.
That's my problem is I don't know fashion.
I don't know the trends.
But hoodies are your thing.
Right.
I love hoodies.
I love a nice soft hoodie.
I love them.
They're great.
Well, Dan,
sounds like never.
One is the most thoughtful thing you've ever.
you've ever done for your wife.
Nikki and Alabama.
Married her?
Oh, shoot.
Yeah.
What?
Nothing.
I was supposed to bring something today and I forgot.
Oh, God.
Yeah, you know, marrying her is a pretty big deal.
I'd say that's pretty thoughtful.
I gave her three kids, pretty thoughtful.
Yeah?
Yeah.
That's your thoughtfulness?
That's pretty good, isn't it?
I mean, what else is there to do?
What else?
I don't know.
Romantic dates.
Cook her dinner.
like special dinner that she likes,
bring her a bottle of wine when she's had a long day,
bring her flowers when you're thinking about her?
I mean, I don't know anything about wine,
so I don't, why would I bring her up?
She could tell me,
oh yeah, bring me my favorite bottle of wine.
Guess what I would do.
I would have no idea what to do.
Exactly.
You've been married to her for so long.
How do you not know what, at least type of wine that she would like?
Because I don't, I don't drink wine, so I don't know anything about.
Just because you don't drink it.
She does.
No, but I don't know what is what, what kind of wine is what?
Like I call it. There's a prosciko.
Okay.
Is that right?
There's red wine and there's white rine.
What do?
White wine.
What does she typically drink?
She drinks both of those.
Okay.
Have you ever asked what kind?
Because listen.
Chardonnay, Sauvian Blanc.
Those are all kinds.
She likes, I've heard that one, Savon Blanc.
Savon Blanc.
So there's all kinds of brands out there and you can get savi on block and all of those brands.
Okay.
So you can always just get a savi on block and bring it home.
Cool.
That's something very nice.
nice to do. All right. Yeah. I don't know anything like I said.
Nikki, I think this answer is also no. Okay. What do you mean? No. Have I ever done anything nice for
her? Thoughtful. Yes. Thoughtful is different than just existing. I married her. That is literally
that is so thoughtful. That is thoughtful. I'm not going to walk down this with you right now.
You can do thoughtful things. And I know that you probably do and you just don't want to say them right now.
Listen, I literally, that is, listen, I am not, I don't have these grand gestures.
You've never been a romantic in any since the word.
No.
Yeah.
Not really.
But she married you because she loves you.
So for some reason, you did something right.
Right.
Like, you understand, like.
And she had three babies with you, so.
Correct.
How much more romantic do you want me to get?
I think sometime you should just totally surprise her and show up to the house.
with her favorite wine and flowers.
Literally have no idea her favorite wine.
She doesn't have a favorite wine.
With a wine that she might like.
You understand she doesn't have a favorite wine?
But maybe a wine that she likes.
Oh my gosh, you guys are difficult.
But we do, I do take advantage sometimes.
There's this flower shop that has half off Fridays.
So if she ever gets flowers, it's on Fridays.
Okay, well, we're halfway there.
Okay.
Thank you.
I will be at the grocery stores and my kids.
They'll be like, hey, dad, we should get mom.
flowers and they'll pick out a thing of flowers.
That's your kids being thoughtful.
Who's the one that took them to the grocery store?
You didn't take him for that reason, though.
You took him to the grocery store to get food.
See, I get credit.
Okay.
We're going to get out of here.
We're already leaving?
Yeah.
Thanks for being here.
How long was this one?
This is about 28 minutes.
It's longer than usual because you roasted me for the first several minutes, but that's okay.
And then you called me old and laughed at your own joke for-
I had to get some shot in.
I took strays at the beginning for no reason.
Did you laugh for 35 minutes about your own joke?
I laughed for about 45 seconds, yeah.
Yeah, you were like,
Heena.
You took up almost three minutes roasting me.
I was not, no, see, I keep telling you, it was not a roast.
Okay, bye, everybody.
It was literally me just trying to be nice.
That was usually, oh boy.
No, no, it went, no, okay, I maybe not be nice.
I was just pointing out something.
