Starting point is 00:02:46 Folks, it's your buddy and mine. Mr. Bobby Bones. Let go. Transmitting across America. This is Bobby Bones. Hey, welcome. Welcome to the show. Morning Studio! Morning!
Starting point is 00:03:02 Oh man, it's crazy because I come in and always have this a pile of stories, and I go through them and I kind of rank them in order of what I for sure want to get to. And I have two that are just so nutty that I'm just going to share them. There was a guy that was hired on a Thursday, fired on a Sunday, and then tried to kill his boss two hours later. It was just not a fortunate few days for this guy. A 23-year-old guy was hired at an aluminum manufacturing company in Florida.
Starting point is 00:03:29 He was fired three days later for throwing around supplies and dropping his tools on the ground. So he gets hired on Thursday, fired on Sunday. He's so mad he came back and tried to kill his boss. He shut up with a gun, chased his boss out of the building. You know that boss is buttless puckering. Can you imagine him? Somebody comes with a gun? Oh.
Starting point is 00:03:47 The boss jumped into his car. The guy started firing. He put five bullets into the car. None of them hit the boss. And the guy was arrested for attempt to murder, so no one got hurt. Wow. But that's a pretty bad run. That's pretty bad, just a bad week for that, dude.
Starting point is 00:03:58 now he's in jail forever Goes and has to get a new job Probably lost his other job So he gets fired Goes and gets a new one Gets fired again Attempt and murder somebody Now he's in jail
Starting point is 00:04:09 Yeah That's a bad run boys I've seen some bad runs That's bad boys So there's that one Here's another one Experts have revealed That women deal
Starting point is 00:04:21 With hardship better than men And are more likely To survive extreme crises Over men Anyway, what I think about that? Man, I feel like maybe I'm starting to see how that makes sense if I think about it for a second because my husband, I'm just thinking in our family, he keeps it all in and keeps it internalizes it. And that, I think, can build up and be worse for you over time, whereas I express everything that I'm going through and I share my emotions and I'm vulnerable so I can get it out and maybe heal faster.
Starting point is 00:04:55 It's probably more toxic to keep it. it in. I wonder, because they talk about extreme crisis here and how women are better, I wonder if childbirth makes women so much stronger. You guys have to deal with something that we don't. And it's awesome and equally as crazy hard. Like you have to like throw a baby out of your woo-woo hole. Yeah. I know. And I would put our monthly cycle right up there with that every month. That's true too. Y'all do not have to deal with that on the regular every time. 28 days, 26 sometimes, 32, you know, give or take, but it,
Starting point is 00:05:32 maybe because this month for me was like so brutal, I was like curled up in a ball on the floor, like in so much pain. And not every month is like that. Yeah, it's crazy. Some months are super intense and others are like, oh, wow, okay, not too bad. But I just, yeah, and men will just never understand that. Just like we won't understand what it's like for you guys. Yeah, get hit in the junk.
Starting point is 00:05:54 Yeah, you don't know. If that's what you want to compare it to, because that happens. every month. For me, it does. I make sure someone hits me right there just so I remember. For seven days? Seven days in a row? Just in honor of all the women in my life, I have one of my friends come up every day
Starting point is 00:06:08 for a week and it thumped me right in my junk. And I go, that's for you ladies. I just want to feel it, you know? Yeah. They say that on this story, they say that one of the main reasons is estrogen because the hormone has a unique ability to boost a woman's immune system and can give almost a superpower when it comes to health and when it comes to adrenaline. That's interesting. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:30 That is interesting, right? Anyway, I had that story in the pile here. You probably have some measure gin up in you. Oh, do I? Do I? Do I have it? I don't know. I mean, I don't know if only, I mean, I don't know if it's just produced by the ovaries. Because, I mean, women, we have testosterone. I might have ovaries. Who knows?
Starting point is 00:06:48 The Bobby Bone Show. Big Drees stories. It's producer Raimundo. Today is the 17th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks. In other news, more than a million people in the path of Hurricane Florence are ordered to evacuate. There's been states of emergency declared.
Starting point is 00:07:04 It's going to be on the East Coast on Thursday. And finally, in recall news, there's a recall on cat and dog food. The brand is Steve's real food. It can make your animals sick. Take you back for a full refund. So Amy, you and your husband got a couple's massage? Yeah, it was his birthday.
Starting point is 00:07:20 So I just booked a normal massage. Nothing crazy. But about halfway through it, she said, I'm going to stop and do some energy work. And I was like, okay, energy work. So for about 15 minutes, she just sat there with her fingers on my temples, barely pressing. Like, barely pressing. Then she moved, and this is all in that 15 minutes.
Starting point is 00:07:45 She went from temples to behind my ears to my shoulders. And when I tell you, there was no massaging of my temples, it was just pressed, like, a little teeny tiny bit of pressure. where she's not having to work at all. So in my head, I'm like, is this energy work? Or is she taking a break? Because it was right in the middle of the massage. And then she went back to massaging, and it was fine. And so I didn't know if I was being sold some, you know, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:08:12 like she didn't really have energy work going on. She was just tired. But it felt like she was sending me good vibes through my temples, but I don't know. And I didn't know if this is real or scam. Huh. Let me show you How much she was present Let me show you
Starting point is 00:08:27 Let me see if I feel any energy By the way Are you sure she didn't say She was saving her energy work Go ahead She said now Okay go ahead Amy's walking behind me
Starting point is 00:08:34 She has her hands on my head Go ahead Oh I did Listen, I'm be honest I do kind of like that And then hold on Ooh
Starting point is 00:08:44 Wait you're not moving your fingers Amy I know All she did was hold her hands on you And she just charged you for that What it is What? She was like,
Starting point is 00:08:56 Did you start laughing? She was like, I think we cleared out a lot of stuff. Amy, standing behind me touching my bag. Yeah, Amy, you got scammed. Wow, did I just get,
Starting point is 00:09:06 she goes, I really feel like we cleared out and opened up some space in there in between my temples and my, behind my ears and my shoulders. Did you believe it? No, no,
Starting point is 00:09:17 that's why I'm bringing it to y'all. Like, nothing feels different about me, really, other than it's kind of like she took a 15 break in the middle of massage. But she sold it as she, I was lucky enough to be with someone that did energy massage, which wasn't massaging.
Starting point is 00:09:38 It was touching my temple. Well, listen, I did a massage once and I got a kiss on the forehead. Well, I think she liked you. Or she did that to every now. Wait, wasn't she like 80? Yeah. And she kissed me in my forehead. That was bizarre.
Starting point is 00:09:52 She was like, we did the thing. And then she was like, wait, what? That was a joke. It was like, you? When you went to, you're like, wait, is this real? Yeah. How did you not laugh while she was just holding her fingers on you? I didn't want to ruin the energy.
Starting point is 00:10:06 I don't know. Oh, it's right. Yep. The game is easy. I will play you a sound. You have to identify what the sound is. Now we played this before in Eddie 1. I'm just going to play a sound.

Starting point is 00:14:41 I'm Morgan number two. That's the skinny. Bobby Bone. It's time for the good news. With Amy. Tell me something good. A pizza shop in Indiana has found a way to help homeless and people that can't necessarily afford food. in their community.
Starting point is 00:15:00 At 8th Street Pizza and New Albany, they now allow diners to pay whatever they can. Oh, wow. These are always amazing to me because I do think that I would pay price, maybe even more, because I feel like there would be others who couldn't pay that I want to make up for what they couldn't pay, and I'd like this business to stay in business. But then I wonder about someone like Lunchbox who does fine.
Starting point is 00:15:25 Has it. Nice life. What would you pay, lunchbox? I pay $0.0.0. Why? It's optional. You're not allowing the system to work. What they're trying to do is to create an environment where people who can give more pay more. And people that can't can still come in and maybe they offer things around the shop they can do to help clean up because they want to have dignity-based stuff, like not just free handouts.
Starting point is 00:15:53 I have no problem picking up my dishes when I'm done. I will put them in whatever container at the exit. Let's just say I go by there one day and I happen to forget my wallet. Okay. But you would really do that? Yeah. Well, I think it's a great idea. Shout out. What's the name of the place name?

So they got back together to dig it up, you know, outside the high school, spent hours and hours. Can't find it. Wait, what? They can't find it. They spent hours all day digging. They have no idea where it is.
Starting point is 00:16:40 What happened to it? They maybe have marked the wrong spot. Oh, that's bad. So they had a big reunion 30 years later to unveil this capsule like, oh, this is going to be so cool. Can't find it. Is that their fault? I think so. Can you imagine, though?
Starting point is 00:16:58 They're like, it's got to be here somewhere. Keep digging. All right. There are your boneheads. On Lunchbox, that's your bonehead story in the day. I'll get a big announcement tomorrow. That's pretty exciting. Big announcement.

So later on in the show, I think it would be fitting if we just went around and told stories about where we were when that happened because I remember it so vividly and I think
Starting point is 00:24:38 we'll have a time too to share our appreciation for the first responders so yeah that'll be happening a little later just want to make sure you guys know if you want to listen around for that we'll do that probably in you know 80 minutes or so because it shook me as a kid I remember I mean I was in the school library I remember it so vividly so that's coming up I want anyone to think we're not talking about that because we are we're just trying to find a really good place where we can just sit and talk about it and have to rush, you know? Yeah. So that's later, I did mention this story that you guys know who Post Malone is, right?
Starting point is 00:25:12 Yep. So Post Malone, here, here's the song here. Armed suspects thought they attacked Post Malone's home, but he moved out a few months earlier. They had targeted him, and they went in. Three male suspects broke into the house that previously belonged to Post Malone, believing the rappers still live there. They smashed the front window. They pistol-whipped a resident who was living there now.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Oh, my gosh. Isn't that crazy? Oh, that's so unfortunate for the people to live there now. One of the men, the robbers, was yelling, where's Post Malone? And the people probably like, what? Who? Post-what?
Starting point is 00:25:51 I mean, this guy, Post Malone, dodged a plane crash. Remember his tires popped? Yeah. Then got in a bad car wreck and walked away from it. And now moved out of his house just in time. And this is got the number one song this week with this song right here. On Live. Speaking of number one,

Starting point is 00:28:24 For example, Mark Wahlberg. He was supposed to board American Airlines Flight 11. Instead, he was invited to attend a film festival last minute and decided, okay, well, I'm going to charter a jet instead. And that obviously is one of the planes. Wow. And then he got into some crap later because he said if he had been on the plane, he would have stopped the attacks from happening, which is not the thing to say.
Starting point is 00:28:47 No, definitely not. He later apologized, but that's one of them. Seth MacFarlane was supposed to board that flight. He had been out drinking the night before, and Seth McFarland is the creator of family guy. They'd been out drinking, and he was late. he had drank so much. And so he was late, got there 10 minutes late. He went to the passenger lounge to sleep off
Starting point is 00:29:12 the fact that he had too much a drink. He woke up and everybody was screaming. That is so crazy. I mean, that's just crazy to think about, like, to know that, I mean, that's something so obvious that's happening. It's all over the news and you just have to look at your boarding ticket and know that you were one incident in your life away from being on that plane. Rob Lowe flew with the hijackers on their drive.
Starting point is 00:29:35 dry run performed 11 days before September 11th, because they knew a plane those guys that went on before. Really? And he was on that flight. What? He said, quote, I flew with the 9-11 hijackers on the dry run without realizing it. I was shooting the West Wing in D.C. at the time. And I always took the flight that leads dullest to L.A. that they eventually crashed into the Pentagon. Wow. I didn't know that. Yeah. Isn't that crazy? So, yeah. Yeah. we'll be acknowledging that. And then also let me say to anyone out there who is a first responder,
Starting point is 00:30:12 and we appreciate you, because at any time something could happen and they got to rush in, just like they did there, their life is constantly being ready to put their life on the line. I know I think about those days, and they probably went to work that day like they normally do. Got dressed, left their family, just like any other day.
Starting point is 00:30:32 And then, Yeah. So, we'll get into that more later. It's time for the good news. With lunchbox. Tell me something good. Mitch and Ann Smith own a 32-acre farm down in Mississippi. They're pea farmers. And for the last 10 years, they designate three acres that land for free peas.
Starting point is 00:30:55 So anybody that can't afford the peas, they just come and they can pick as many peas as they want. And if you're an... Wow. And if you're an elderly person, the outside is... It's for you. They leave those so you don't have to go far into the peas to get peas if you're elderly. Well, I wonder, we talked about this and we have many times about you. If someone offers something free, you go take it anyway.
Starting point is 00:31:15 If you live by the pea farm, would you go take free peas even though you didn't need them? Yeah, it says free to the community. I'm part of their community, so I get free peas. But I've got to be honest with you, peas are kind of gross. I don't like peas. Peas are disgusting. Yeah. What are you for?
Starting point is 00:31:30 You guys like peas? I love peas. Oh, man. And I pick around peas if they're in any dish I eat, they're out. Amy, you like peas? I mean, I don't mind them. I like them in, like, stir fry. You like avocado toast with peas on it?
Starting point is 00:31:44 Peat toast? You ever have pea toast? I mean, I'd try it. That's good. Yeah. Well, that's good for them, good for that farm. Thank you, lunchbox. That was Tell me something good.

Amy tells a really corny joke and Here we go. Morning corny. What do you call it when prisoners take their own mug shots?
Starting point is 00:33:22 What do you call? She's already laughing, guys. Oh, boy, that could be good. Amy started laughing as she was telling. Okay. What do you call it when prisoners take their own mug shots? Selfies.
Starting point is 00:33:35 Oh. Like a gel cell selfies? Oh, got it, guys. Selfies. I mean. That was the morning corny. loved that one. Kind of have to look at that on paper, huh? Well, maybe that's why, because I'm looking at it.
Starting point is 00:33:49 It's now time for the baby changing off, and let's bring in our contestants. In the blue corner. In the blue corner. With a brand new newborn baby. He's been a member of the show, the longest. Give it up for lunchbox. Standing over by him. Red corner, right corner.
Starting point is 00:34:13 They're in the red corner, the oldest member of our show. Okay. He's got two sons, 10 and five. And he claims he can change a baby's diaper super fast. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Although he never really did it much as a day. No, do it like five times. Give it up for producer Eddie!
Starting point is 00:34:26 Yeah! All right, lunchbox versus Eddie, they have two baby dolls in front of them. And so each have a diaper beside you. Yes. Oh, lunche is the baby's talking. Oh, now they're both the babies. They're talking. So here's the option.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Now, there is a prize here. You can either win $40 cash. Okay, okay, I like it, I like it. Or I will donate $50 in charity if you win. So we shall decide what you want. Okay, it's up to you. So, lunchbox is got a baby, Eddie's got a baby. Yeah, I got a baby.
Starting point is 00:34:56 Bones, how are you going to judge this? As soon as your baby's completely wrapped in diaper, just slamming on the table. Okay. Just like you were doing in real life. And that means the baby's done. Yes. And Amy will check it. Now, if the baby's not done up to Amy standard,
Starting point is 00:35:11 the other person should keep diapering because your baby could actually win. Oh, I love it. And she's going to be judging Neatness and... If the diaper is complete. Yeah, you can't have room for leakage. Love it. That's right. So it's got to be a complete diaper.
Starting point is 00:35:22 But we don't go too tight because you can cut off circulation. Stop it. The legs. I'm telling you. I'm telling you. I've got it. I've got a brand new baby. He's done it. He's got the circulation off many times. All right. Ready, ready. All right. No, no. Lunchbox. Got the diapers. We got pamper's here. What are you doing? Oh, you go into the bag?
Starting point is 00:35:37 When I change a diaper, I got to go in the bag. You both got to go in the bag. Here we go. Hands on the table. Here we go. Both of your hands flat on the table. Not in you. In three. Whoa, whoa.
Starting point is 00:35:47 Two. One. And then we go. Got it. They both reached into the diaper. Eddie's got the lead right now. Is that Eddie got a good hand? Oh, Eddie's wrapping.
Starting point is 00:35:57 Uh-oh. Lunchbox is going around. Lunchbox is struggling right now. Yeah, yeah. Dipper's really big. Eddie slammed the bag down. Dead! Dead!
Starting point is 00:36:05 Eddie slammed. A lunchbox is still struggling. Hey, I'm like a roper. I did it. And boom. Yeah, oh, you did. Now, Amy, inspect the baby. and lunchbox is still.
Starting point is 00:36:12 Okay, now lunch is done. All right, Amy, check the diaper. What do you think, Amy? There's room for circulation. Oh, is there? Okay. Yeah, I'm doing the finger test, you know? I check it.
Starting point is 00:36:22 How close this is in the butt? Is there leaking? Both of the... I just say, it looks like little low work and come out the bottom. No, I actually feel like... Yeah, Eddie did a good job. Yeah, Amy! Eddie came in an eight-second strong.
Starting point is 00:36:35 Eight seconds do it. Like a bull rider. Like a bull rider. Hey a bull right in. Yes, Amy. Can I say that I have evaluated lunchboxes that? Yes, go ahead. And he took his time, 14 seconds.
Starting point is 00:36:45 And it's better. Thank you. Thank you. That is what I'm talking about. But it's a speed test. I'm just giving you props. Eddie beat you and it's doable, but you do. You do have mad diaper making skills.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Amy, who is the winner? Producer Eddie, who videos are videos? Or lunchbox who lunchboxes are lunchboxes? Because it is based on time. Yes. Oh, come on. Come on. That Eddie is the winner.
Starting point is 00:37:09 Yeah. This shows that I've always known how to change a diaper. I just chose not to act dumb and not change them. Listen, I think lunchbox messed up by making them grab out of the back. Eddie got ahead. No, no, we're done with the game. Eddie, you are the winner. Yeah, thanks, Bob.
Starting point is 00:37:30 You get to choose. You get $40 in cash for you. Or you get to donate $50 to a charity. I mean, I could use $40. Do what your heart says. Do what your heart says. Go ahead. Give me the $40.
Starting point is 00:37:41 He wants. Yeah. I didn't know the same thing, Eddie. I didn't know the same thing. I know. Here he goes. Wow, you get a helped out plus. What's your heart says.
Starting point is 00:37:51 All right. There he is. There he is. You take your money. That video will be up at bobby bones.com. It's a Bobby Bones show. Some listeners irritated with me yesterday because I didn't share enough of Miss America stories. I didn't know that anybody cared.
Starting point is 00:38:07 But I went and I judged Miss America. I was one of the seven judges and it was fantastic. I had to go through nine hours. of Miss America Boot Camp to learn all about it. And what it was, I had to watch one part of it was, I had to watch the 15 finalists speak for 10 minutes each. That's a lot of videos.
Starting point is 00:38:23 So I didn't pick the top 15. It wasn't in that process. There were preliminary judges, so they announced the top 15 at the beginning of the show. I had nothing to do with that. Or Ms. Arkansas would have been in there, and Miss Texas and Miss Tennessee. And none of them were. Because those are my places. They weren't. But then when I got to top 15, and I was a good judge.
Starting point is 00:38:39 Like, I really tried hard to be a good judge. I'm going to tell you the part that, ooh, I don't know if I should share this or not. I had to fight back some bias. Which I think is normal for humans. Oh, but it shouldn't get me in trouble because I felt like I combated it properly. But when people would do rich person things, I was like, oh, you're ballet dancing. You must be rich. And I grew up very poor.
Starting point is 00:39:01 And I had to go, you can't do that, Bobby. So I felt like I was a good judge because even though my heart took me somewhere, because I always resented people that have money. Can I give you a little example? Go ahead. Because, you know, I would look at something like ice skating as being a rich person sport if you're doing it as a child. But we learned during that Nancy Kerrigan movie that her mom, like they weren't, they didn't have a lot of money. Yeah, it was a Tanya Harding.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Oh, yeah. Nansaii Carey was in the movie. Tony Hardy was rich. But her story was, yes, like people can sacrifice things to give their kids like something that seems fancy. It wasn't fair of me to think that, but I was aware enough to know that. Okay, good for you. And so the girl that one was an opera singer, and apparently I was on camera doing this. they told me don't make any facial expressions
Starting point is 00:39:44 because you can't show unequal expression to one not to the other I was the worst at that because they'd finish I'd be like oh my god that was funny to watch and people kept taking pictures and I got warned and then I just kept doing it because it was natural
Starting point is 00:39:59 and I only got there because I'm me yeah this is true so I just kept being me I should never have credentials do that anyway so anyway I go up and the other judges I want to tell you some stories So Carney Wilson was one of the judges And we became friends throughout the day
Starting point is 00:40:14 She's in Wilson Phillips She has this song Some day somebody's going to make you want to turn around And say goodbye And they want to think And make you cry And I said We even sat together at the table
Starting point is 00:40:28 And I could not stop singing it around her That song stayed in my head And even without meaning to I'd be like Just not even knowing Someday somebody's going And she would look at me And I would go like
Starting point is 00:40:38 Yeah I should not do that huh and she was super cool she was really one of my favorite people but I probably sang it all day because I would just look at her and something would trigger my brain and I would just start going someday somebody's going
Starting point is 00:40:50 and turn around and say goodbye and then I started asking her about it because she sings the low part she didn't sing the lead in that song she sings the low part but she was really cool and I was really annoying with that I could not stop singing it
Starting point is 00:41:01 Hey did you ask her about her dad I did not but she brought up her dad at one point yeah because her dad is from the beach boys Brian Wilson What? Yeah yeah yeah yeah that's her dad Oh, she did, she had mentioned something about it.
Starting point is 00:41:12 Oh, that's cool. Yeah, yeah. So that happened. Randy Jackson from American Idol. Yeah, yes. I really felt like he was going to come in and be cooler than everyone because he's Randy Jackson. He says dog. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:24 He was the nicest human. Maybe I've ever met, not even celebrity-wise. Really? Up there with Amy as far as nice as. Yeah. Yeah. Wow. Amy and Randy Jackson.
Starting point is 00:41:32 I'm telling you, he was so awesome. We would just talk about he loves country music and not even like the poser way where people go like, I love country music. Yeah, I love that Luke Bentley. Yeah. And you're like, shut up. But he was like, I love the new Brothers Osborne record. We're talking about tracks.
Starting point is 00:41:47 We're talking about Eric Church. That's so cool. Guys, he was, Randy Jackson was so nice. Just, Mike D. Wouldn't you agree? He was awesome. He was awesome. Wow.
Starting point is 00:41:56 There was no pretension, just a good dude. And so we were together nine hours. Even before the show started. So I got, so here's what would happen too, is that we'd watch these videos and you have to write questions down, what you want to ask them if they get to that section and they draw your name. So I got in trouble because my questions were too stupid. No. No. But there's no such thing as that. I thought that too. But I thought, this is what happened. So someone would go and talk and they'd talk about their platform and I'd write a question
Starting point is 00:42:24 about the platform. Like how do you also plan to encourage female empowerment within, you know, XYZ? And then I would go, man, your teeth are so white. So I'd go, how did you get your teeth so white? And I'd write that and send it off. That's a funny question. That's a good question. But I can see how they thought maybe like that wasn't in the. But I wasn't doing it. I really wanted to know and I felt like America wants to know. So I got in trouble for that. So Layla Ali, who is one of the judges.
Starting point is 00:42:49 Now, she is Muhammad Ali's daughter. She's a female world champion boxer. And there's a lot of things about her that she's done in her career that's been awesome. And so she's pretty quiet, but she was nice when I would go up and talk to her. But I was talking to her and I said, hey, Layla, I'm a huge fan. She was like, you are? And I said, yeah. And I think she thought I was going to go to the box.
Starting point is 00:43:09 boxing world. And I said, remember that episode of the George Lopez show where you taught their son how to box? And she was like, yeah, I said, I love that episode. I watch a Nick at night all the time. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You got her. I don't know if she liked that much. I don't say what was her reaction. Yeah. I don't know. That was the reason she wanted to be remembered. But I do believe that if you're a fan of someone, regardless, you should tell them. And that to me is what kind of bonded me to her. Amy, well, I guess she's not your real friend. No, I've never met her, but her name's Ali Webb. She's the founder of the dry bar, which is a place where you can go get your hair blown out, and they're all over the country.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Like, 120 locations. If we have work events and I don't travel with my hair stuff, like I've gotten and done for work events with Bobby where he's been busy off doing something. I've gone in Chicago, L.A., New York. Like, she's just an awesome entrepreneur, and I admire her. That's my new best friend in life. She's cool? The best. That's what I spent the most time with during the whole trip.
Starting point is 00:44:07 And Amy was so jealous. I was geeking out. I didn't even know who she was and she didn't know who I was. And when I first met her, I said, hey, can I take a picture of me and you so I can send him my friend Amy? And she was like, yeah, we were the least famous people there by far because then we knew who we were. And so we kind of bonded over that.
Starting point is 00:44:20 Cool. We went to Denny's afterward. You did? Yeah. Yeah, she's like my new best friend. That's awesome. And then, you know, we set up there and we did the judging and we wrote the scores down. And we really judged.
Starting point is 00:44:30 Like, the person that I picked ended up winning. Oh, really? You picked Miss New York? I gave her the highest score. Wow. So they come to you and they draw a name out of a jar. Did you guys see me ask my question by any chance? It's good.
Starting point is 00:44:41 And they were supposed to, you're just supposed to ask your question. But I was like, let me get a book plug in there too. Because it's like, come on, have a microphone. Of course. It's all good. And so, yeah, here is my question on Miss America. And all my question said is, tell me about your biggest failure. That's all supposed to say.
Starting point is 00:44:58 But I know the camera's on me. What are they going to do? Turn it off. Hello. Hi. Hey, so I wrote my last book about failure and all the failures that I've been through and I had a lot of friends share failures with me. I wonder what is your most challenging and difficult failure that you can share with us that you learn from?
Starting point is 00:45:17 Failure is a funny word because it implies defeat. And I have had many setbacks in my life, but I'm a firm believer that every setback is a set-up for your comeback. And from every tribulation that I have faced, every rejection that I have had, I have used that to turn it into how to learn to be a better version of myself. Thank you. She didn't answer the question. Right, because she didn't give you a specific failure. So does she know anything like that that type of question is coming? No.
Starting point is 00:45:48 No, they know nothing. That was an amazing answer for that. But they're elite of that. Yeah. So, yeah. Yeah, I would have docked her points because she just read. I didn't talk her, but I didn't rate her high. She rephrased the question and just babbled for about 15 seconds and then.
Starting point is 00:46:02 And that's why I didn't give her a good score. I get that. Some of them answer the questions straight up. Oh. But it's tough. It's supposed to be tough because you're in the elite of the most elite competition. And if they don't call it a pageant anymore, it's like a job interview. And it's a real job.
Starting point is 00:46:17 It pays like six figures. And you go for, yeah, it's a real thing. So I found my experience enjoyable. Any questions that you guys had about the show? Randy Jackson. Yes, go ahead. Get his number? Yes, I have his number.
Starting point is 00:46:29 Dude, we trade cell phone number. He's like, call me anytime you want. Call. Call. No, I'm not calling right now. Not right now. It's too early in the morning. He lives in L.A.
Starting point is 00:46:35 You're talking about it's 5 o'clock in the morning there. What does Randy Jackson do? Oh, a lot. He manages like eight artists. Really? He manages chefs. He produces records. He does so much.
Starting point is 00:46:46 When he got brought into American Idol, he was the guy that you weren't supposed to know. But he had done so much because he used to play in the band for, like, Mariah Carey, went in Houston, played bass. Like, they brought him as the expert, never to be a personality. He just turned into a personality. Oh, dude, genius in music. We were with Jesse James Decker, who I become friends with, too. Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:47:04 He was talking about music. and he was having to judge those singers on Miss America and he's like, I feel like this American Idol again. And I'm like going to say who he thought was good and who didn't. But it was pretty open. The whole place, the Miss America organization, was fantastic. They were just, it was great. Is it something where judges go back again?
Starting point is 00:47:22 Like, do you think you'd ever do it again? Or is it like, do they switch out judges every year? It's a lot of work and they didn't pay anything. And it was a Sunday night, so it hurt the show a bit where I was just exhausted yesterday. I don't know if I would do it again. I would host it next year. I think there's a shot I host it next year. Yeah, real talk, real talk.
Starting point is 00:47:35 The guy that was up there, like, you could do that job, right? I don't care about him. The girl that was doing it. Oh, you want to do the girl's job. Yeah, and she did a good job, but I wanted to do the main job. That's not trying to be a side person. Oh, I just, I'll be the side person. I saw him, I was watching, I'm like, you don't know who that is?
Starting point is 00:47:49 No, I don't know who that is. I was like, Bones could kill that position right there. Oh, well, you know how it is, dude. There you go. Struggle, man. Thank you. Anyway, I wanted to share that with you guys. Amy, you have two kids.
Starting point is 00:48:03 Yeah, your son is. Eight. And your daughter is... 11. And do you worry because I was reading this story about bulletproof backpacks? Even cross your mind at all? I mean, I certainly haven't thought about buying them one, but I've seen that they're available in the news.
Starting point is 00:48:19 I don't know. How much are they? Well, mostly it's an insert. So you have a backpack that has an insert spot in it, then you have to buy the inserts. So they're about 200 bucks. Oh, wow. School officials in Wisconsin, they're the ones dealing with us now because they're going to going, I don't think this is the thing, because some kids are showing up with them.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Yeah. They cost about $200. The company also sells $800 protection vest for teachers. Oh, my goodness. Okay, wow. I mean, gosh, this just makes me think of school as, like, such a scary place. And, of course, every time there's a shooting, we're reminded that it can be, but then a little bit of time goes by and you just kind of send your kids off to school, like, okay.
Starting point is 00:48:58 They do do do shooting drills now at school. They do. Yes. Active shooter. What's that drill? So your kids, what do they do you know? My kids aren't. They're not in a place to explain to me what's really happening.
Starting point is 00:49:11 I don't know if anybody else may better know. But, I mean, they prepare for active shooter what they would do, I guess, a scenario. Eddie may know. My little one has something called a lollipop drill. And it's like they say, hey, there's lollipops in the restroom. And they all go to the restroom and they file up. They don't say anything about being a shooter, but they all think they're going in there to get a treat. But they know what it is.
Starting point is 00:49:32 It's a code word. That's code word. Wow. That's nutty. I know. Your kids, Amy, how's your kids? By the way, if you're new to the show, Amy has two kids and they were adopted from Haiti at the first of the year. Yep. How is their English coming?
Starting point is 00:49:45 It's coming along. I know I went through a season, maybe like last week where I was thinking their English was really awesome. But friends like Bobby and other people brought to my attention that I'm just getting better at understanding them. Uh-huh. And it's definitely getting better. but we're bringing on extra tutoring, like starting next week, I think. So someone will come to our house twice a week or three times a week to work with them after school. It's a woman here that speaks English.
Starting point is 00:50:15 Does they like learning English or they feel like they already know it all? Oh, no. I don't, well, they don't really know the tutor's coming. So they don't know more learning is coming. But there's so much more learning happening in their future right now because we realize like how behind we are that, I mean, it's about to get real. There's no more like two-hour bike rides and Netflix. Like my daughter's going to be like, what happened to Netflix? I'd be like, sorry, you need to know five times five.
Starting point is 00:50:40 It's time for the good news. Tell me something good. This woman in California, her name's Char. She decided to donate a kidney. Now, it wasn't because she had a recipient in mine. Apparently she had just seen a couple stories on the news about how people need the kidneys. And she wanted to do something kind for someone in need. and so she goes to the hospital
Starting point is 00:51:05 and they take both people in at the same time because they take the kidney out. And I'm not super familiar with the process of actually donating a kidney but they're both in and they let them meet each other and it was her neighbor from two houses down. She had no idea. Oh wow. That's crazy. It's like a game show like meet your kidney today. It's like,
Starting point is 00:51:20 oh, I know you! So yeah, look at that. And so even Richard, the dude who was getting the kidney thought he was getting it from a stranger and whenever they went and met they were like, wait, you look two houses down for me. And so now they're cool, obviously. They're like BFFs. You kind of have to be BFFs with them, right? It gives you your kidney. Oh, yeah, I think. And sometimes people end up getting married. No, this person's really old, though. I mean, listen, what do I know? Yeah. They can still get married,
Starting point is 00:51:46 nothing wrong with whatever. No ages in here. I thought that was a pretty good story. I love it. She wanted to give a kidney, which was awesome. She gave it and then ended up being her neighbor. So there you go. Thank you. That was Tell Me Something Good. Your buddy and mind. Mr. Bobby Bones. September 11th, attacks happened 17 years ago today. I had a couple artists talking about where they were. Here is Jake Owen talking about it.
Starting point is 00:52:23 My teacher putting up on the big screen, you know, he's like, man, some idiot. His flu his personal plane into a trade center. And as they talked more and more about it, we realized, no, that's not a personal plane. I was an airliner. And then next thing you know, you hear people, oh, another one's coming, another one's coming. and me and about 600 other students in that class were just dead silent watching it. Here's Zach Brown talking about it. And I realized that, you know, how fleeting that life can possibly be.
Starting point is 00:52:51 And I realized on that day that I would never not not do what I love to do every day of my life. And I quit school that day. He quit school because he's like, I just got to live my life or how I want to live my life. I remember, so I'll tell my story. I was at Henderson State University in southern Arkansas. and I remember being in the school library on September 11th. I was on the computer and I was probably on some sort of research. And so a librarian comes up to me and goes,
Starting point is 00:53:22 hey man, you may want to go check out the TV. Something just happened. And I was like, first of all, why is a librarian talking to me? Secondly, what? And so I thought it was so weird that a librarian would leave and start telling people something's up. So walk over and one by one, we start to gather around this very small TV in the corner of the library that met the student union. And the first plane had already hit.
Starting point is 00:53:48 That's how that they knew. And then we kind of watched the second plane hit because the news was up. And you know, it's wild to think, because now we've seen the news so many times what we really saw versus what we've just seen over and over again. Right. But I do feel like we saw the second plane because they had the camera up. And we saw it, we were like, oh, and it still didn't, it didn't sink in what was really, really, really happening. And so, and then it just kind of all became a blur. And we were going, and then you look back and there were like seven of us, then 27 of us.
Starting point is 00:54:22 And then you look at there, there are 200 people around looking at all the TVs in the student union. And so we went to class still not really knowing what was going on. And they were like, hey, we're not having class. And that's from going home watching TV. And it was nonstop. it was people I didn't want to really get into it so much
Starting point is 00:54:39 because it makes me feel um makes me feel a bit lost again because I felt very lost then like what's happening where are we what are these people supposed to do because they were jumping out of the buildings
Starting point is 00:54:53 and for just weeks everyone was so sad everyone was so sad. And I remember watching the news clips of the firefighters covered in all the things, soot, dirt, just running towards the buildings thinking, oh my God, like, thank goodness people are going in to try to help people. And a lot of them didn't make it out. And you know what?
Starting point is 00:55:29 I think that's really where my appreciation stems, like my just deep appreciation for first response. I think it all roots back to that in me just going, wow, I can't believe people are actually just really going in to save people, risking their own lives, losing their own life to save people. I think that's the root of just my deep, pure appreciation because I don't have that. I don't have that gene of just, I got you. I would run. Like I know me. I would run.
Starting point is 00:56:00 And so that's where I was. I was at school. I was, that's from 11th. sophomore in college. It was crazy. I just remember so vividly with a librarian coming over. You remember yours?
Starting point is 00:56:14 Yeah. I didn't have morning classes that day, so I never even made it to campus that day because school was canceled by the time my classes would have started. And I went over to my boyfriend's house
Starting point is 00:56:24 and I remember sitting down with his roommate, which was a childhood friend of mine, known him forever, and we all just sat there and watched the TV, watched it unfold and kind of waited for
Starting point is 00:56:36 I can't remember how long, like, campus was, I guess, essentially they were calling it like a lockdown, you know, like no one was allowed to go. So we all just kind of had off and watched the news and then resumed classes shortly after, but it was a very somber feel. Did it affect your husband in a way? Was he in the Air Force Academy at the time? He had already graduated. He was at pilot training in Texas. So he was in the military when it happened? He actually was taking his exam, his pilot training exam.
Starting point is 00:57:11 So you go to the Air Force Academy. Then after that, you're now, you're in the Air Force. You say you want to be a pilot. They go pick out, okay, you get tested for what kind of plane are you going to fly? And so he was doing all that stuff, which was in South Texas. So what do he say about it? Because he was in the military as it happened. Yeah, so at that point.
Starting point is 00:57:28 So he has been at, so since 2001 he's been at war. I mean, in my mind, I'm like, there's not a year since 2001. I don't think that he hasn't been in Afghanistan or the Middle East or Africa or something involving terrorist activity. Lunchbox? I was asleep in my apartment in San Antonio and I get a, the phone keeps ringing. That's when I had a home phone. It kept ringing and ringing. Go to voicemail or answer machine and then call back.
Starting point is 00:58:02 And so finally, I get out of bed and I answer it in my. roommate at the time John, it was his girlfriend, Alicia, and she was like, hey, is John there? I said, no, she goes, well, you might want to go turn on the TV because something just happened at the World Trade Center. And so I, okay, and I hung up the phone, and I went and sat on the couch in the living room, and I just sat there and watched and just watched the news coverage over and over. Both planes had already hit by the time I had woken up, and I just could not believe it. My roommate came home that day, John, and he went and met with a recruiter for the Marines, And he signed up for the Marines that summer.
Starting point is 00:58:37 Yeah. Well, to all the first responders and all of our military, past and present and even future, you're listening right now, you're thinking about it, we appreciate you. We really, really do. I know we say it a lot. Sometimes I feel like, sometimes I feel like we don't say it enough. Sometimes I feel like I say it so much.
Starting point is 00:58:51 People just want to say, shut up, Bobby. But, you know, I think it's a good time to remember the people, first of all, that died and shouldn't have. And secondly, the people that went to help all the people. Like, they were so, from such an awful, awful situation, you saw people united and working together. To go visit in New York at the 9-11 Memorial that's now there, it's, I've gone with my husband and it's like one of the craziest feelings ever
Starting point is 00:59:27 to just sit there and like look at all those names. If you ever have a chance to go, I mean, it's, it's good to go and pay respect. I know our show is usually pretty dopey and we do funny stuff. I felt like we should, and we've talked about it a bit, but I wanted to talk and I'll tell our stories
Starting point is 00:59:44 and I'm sure you have your story and I hope you share it with someone and I hope maybe you do something good for somebody today. You know, sometimes you just need a reason to remember that, hey, life ain't so bad. You know, it's actually pretty good. Pretty good for us right now.
Starting point is 00:59:57 Us meaning you're listening right now, pretty good. Go help somebody out. It's a Bobby Bones show. Man, this woman that gave birth in her car, so nutty. This is her after she gave birth. She had the baby. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 01:00:15 Oh, my goodness. We just delivered a baby in the car. Oh, my God. Mama, you did it? Oh, my goodness. I can't believe that just happened. Wow. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 01:00:36 The crazy part is the car is moving. He is driving to the hospital, the husband. And she is on her knees in the passenger scene. She's like, you've got to pull her. We've got to pull her. And the baby comes out. There are kids in the back seat. Wow.
Starting point is 01:00:48 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's in Texas. It is unbelievable. She's on her knees facing the back of the car. And the baby just comes right out. And wow. It is an intense video. We'll put it up at bobbybones.com.
Starting point is 01:01:03 And on our Facebook page. point he says, hey, can you wait a couple minutes? Do you see that? Yeah. But that's not how it works, guys. I'm baby. She doesn't. Mm-mm. And that works. The mom actually catches the newborn as it's coming out. Yes, I'm telling you, she's on her knees, facing the back, and she's
Starting point is 01:01:19 the one that does everything. Well, yeah, he's driving. He's like, hey, hold on a minute. So you know kids always ask, like, where do babies come from? There's two kids in the back. They got that lesson. Let's go over to Morgan number two, who's our head of digital. She runs all our social
Starting point is 01:01:37 media, our website, and she's 24 years old. If you're a huge Hello Kitty fan, then this is for you. Good, good. The first Hello Kitty Grand Cafe opened in California. So what is in the Hello Kitty Grand Cafe? Well, Hello Kitty is a brand of stuffed animals and all these cool things. So the cafe is made up of Hello Kitty themed items. I had an ex-girlfriend who was fascinated with Hello Kitty.
Starting point is 01:02:05 Just loved it. And I thought that was weird. But then we all love weird things too. Around the room, what weird thing do you love? That people would be like, what? That's kind of weird. Lunchbox? We should all assign them to each other because we're all going.
Starting point is 01:02:18 Our thing's on weird. Lunchbox loves teen mom and all those MTV pregnancy shows. Yeah. That's definitely weird. I'll do Amy. Amy is obsessed with like making her own deodorant out of chemicals and her, like, plants in her backyard. She doesn't have a microwave. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:37 All the weird. What's wrong with that? Granola stuff. Like she's obsessed with it. I'm like the non-hip hippie as hippie. Yeah. That's Amy. What about me?
Starting point is 01:02:45 Bobby is obsessed with work. Yeah. That's weird, no, no, no. Really, his thing is time. Like, if you're not on, if you're not early. It's like, I mean, he just has this obsession with time and clocks. Here's why. Why?
Starting point is 01:03:01 Because if you can't do the little things right, like be on time somewhere, you can't do the big things right, like run a company. or work for me. Man, it is. It's pretty annoying. But yes, I'm obsessed with it. There you go. Hey, Morgan number two, thank you very much. For sure.
Starting point is 01:03:18 I'm having a lot of difficulty throwing out old underwear. Why? I don't know. Amy, I'm going through my drawer. I have underwear that I've had for 15 years. And I'm going,
Starting point is 01:03:31 ooh, I'll know if I should throw those out. Like, I've just... Do they fit just right? Some of them are a little big. Oh. But I've just had them for so long. I'm so loyal to my things. And they have holes in them.
Starting point is 01:03:45 And I'm a Fruit of the Lume or a Haynes guy for the most part. And it just reminds me of where I come from. You guys know, like, I keep a picture on my street sign from my hometown. Population 700. I have my grandma, my mom tattooed in my arm. I feel like this is definitely deeper than just the underwear. It is. I've had these underwear since I couldn't afford to pay rent in an apartment
Starting point is 01:04:06 in Archadelphia, Arkansas. Like, I know that's gross. I know that's gross, but I can't. I was having trouble. And I threw some of them out, but some of them I kept. And the bands are all broken. So what's wrong with keeping them, you know, just because, just for memory's sake. Why?
Starting point is 01:04:22 I shouldn't. Why not frame them and put them on the wall? Yeah, it gets a good point. Oh, you know what I heard? I heard you washed a pair of your jeans you wear all the time for the first time in a year. Yeah, one year, two months. I bought them last July, and I had never washed them because they were my good, pair of jeans and you don't wash
Starting point is 01:04:38 I don't wash my clothes a lot because once you wash them they get worn out and that's when you have to buy a new one so I go as long as I can without washing them so I went one year two months without washing them the other day I put them on and I could smell them and I said and to make sure that they were the jeans I took them
Starting point is 01:04:56 and sniffed them did the sniff test and I was like yeah I need to wash these because sometimes it's hot outside you sweat in them okay we don't need the details but one year two months Pretty good. Did you ever put them in the freezer during that time? No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:05:09 I would just hang them back up in the closet or throw them on the ground, pick them up when I'd wear them the next time. You just throw them on the ground. All the time. Do you still take your soccer clothes off after you play rec soccer? Just throw them on the porch and leave them there and then put them on again? Yeah. And I sniff my shin guards every time I put them off.
Starting point is 01:05:23 Why? I don't know. Sort of like every time you take off your socks, you sniff them. No, I don't think I ever have. I don't either, really. Every single time I take off socks, I smell them. That's gross. I don't know why.
Starting point is 01:05:34 That's gross. That's normal. So anyways. My jeans are now clean, so. I don't feel so weird now with my underwear. Yeah, definitely. Like, you're good. Like, keep your underwear.
Starting point is 01:05:45 Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, what's happening, guys? You know, you're on your phone. You're always tinking around trying to find stuff to do. There's a lot of games. A lot of apps out there. But I'll say this, there's only one Best Fiends. And if you're like me, you're tired of the same old apps on your phone.
Starting point is 01:06:02 And let me recommend to you the puzzle game, Best Fiends. There's a. ton, they've been saying infinite amount of challenging puzzles, thousands of levels to play, and tons of characters to collect. It's the perfect game to play whenever you want. You can play family, friends, by yourself. Either way, you won't get bored. And you won't be using your thumb going, ah, there's nothing to do on my phone. The best part, you can even play without internet connection, so you can play literally anytime, anywhere. Morgan number two plays it before the show starts. I catch myself playing Best Fiends, just all the time, sitting somewhere,
Starting point is 01:06:33 play some Best Fiends. Give it a try. And you can tell me where you're catch yourself playing best fiends. Download best fiends for free on the app store or Google Play Today. That's Friends Without the R. Best fiends and you can be part of the club. Folks, it's your buddy and my... Mr. Bobby Bones. Hey, what's happening? Thanks for hanging out with us all show long.
Starting point is 01:07:01 We've talked about some stuff. Let me say this. I've been getting a little pushback about my women and country music show. Why? I don't know. It's mostly, honest to God, white male middle-aged men who are so upset about me doing this show. Listen, I don't program music nationally. I don't even program music on the show. Sometimes I'll play songs I like.
Starting point is 01:07:19 I'm not a music guy. Listen, I love music, but I didn't get into programming. I'm here to create content. I'm here to give back. I'm here to be funny, to be sad, to do things, to make people feel like that's what I'm here to do. And so when they made me a VP of the company, it was not to program music, but it was to create shows.
Starting point is 01:07:37 So I said, hey, I have this show idea where we can take and highlight women in country music. Since I don't program nationally, you have no influence there, I can make a show and just make everybody have to play the show. So on the show, I play women in country music that have had huge hits in the past to just remind people how good it is. Women are on the chart now to move him up the chart. So when he moves up the chart, other stations have to play them because are too high up the chart and then to introduce women. And then, yeah, I'm telling you, I'm getting some serious pushback. And some people are like, well, why don't you just make it all even anyway? And I'm like, I don't have the influence to do that. And no one does because it's all.
Starting point is 01:08:12 It's like 20 radio companies. And they're all doing, and I think they're all doing a bit better. And again, I speak out against my own all the time. And I do think everyone's doing a bit better, but there's a long way to go. But I'm getting some serious pushback. And I'm not going to stop.
Starting point is 01:08:28 Like, I'm just not going to stop. You program directors out there, it's none of my people. It's other companies. It's crazy. It's unfortunate. But I will not stop doing the show. I will not stop highlight.
Starting point is 01:08:42 inviting women and I hope that it does make things more equal. But you just can't go, things are equal now, we're just going to start. This is not, the reality, it's not pragmatic to think that. All of a sudden, someone's going to go with me. So what I've done is I've kind of kicked the bottom of a door in going, we're about to come in. Me and all my, I'm not even a woman. I feel like a woman. I do.
Starting point is 01:09:00 I do. Honestly. I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. I know.
Starting point is 01:09:03 I know. I know. I know. I know. I know. But it's difficult. If I'm being completely transparent, it's been difficult for me because it's been very tumultuous over the the past few weeks from men in country music and not just radio programmers but people in radio
Starting point is 01:09:18 people in it's been tough so have you responded to i sent a couple personal messages honest and sincere and like which i think is the best thing that you can do and said hey i and some people were posting things without mentioning me but it's like sub tweeting me and i'm like hey i know that's about me let's talk about this why you're upset about it because i just believe that as i say lean into the uncomfortable and it makes it comfortable quicker meaning some doesn't feel good. If you just go ahead and lean into it and get out of the way, it becomes comfortable much quicker
Starting point is 01:09:46 and just got to get comfortable eventually anyway. But all I want to say is I'm not stopping. If anything, I'll make it two hours long in 2019. Oh, show them. Take that. But I don't have the ability to program music on radio stations. Even on this show, I can play music. But mostly the few songs that we do play are the biggest hits at the time.
Starting point is 01:10:06 And then I break new artists. But that's all. I'm done. I'm off my horse. I'm going to go over to Amy and get her pile now. Motion. Here's Amy's pile of stories. So I saw this headline, and I just thought it was crazy. But the University of Alabama's football practice fields, they're near apartment complexes.
Starting point is 01:10:23 And people who live there, they have it in their leases that they can't watch the practices. So if Alabama is practicing football, they cannot be on their patio. And they signed a contract. And if they're on the patio, they get, you know, probably fined or whatever. Isn't that crazy? They get a demerit? That's crazy. I didn't know that.
Starting point is 01:10:42 When I saw the headline and I was like, there's no way this can be real, but it got me to click. And then I clicked and I read about it. And there was some of the football players were even commenting. They're like, who's Cedric? Is that somebody from University of Alabama? Cedric? Never mind. The entertainer.
Starting point is 01:10:56 So let me say this about sports. There's a fantastic podcast called The Soor Losers podcast. Have you all talked about this? Lunchbox. No. No, I had no idea about that. Eddie and Ray do. And they do it four days a week.
Starting point is 01:11:07 I mean, it's sports. So if you're listening and you like sports, I would encourage you to search for the sore losers. It's really a good show. But I would like to say to that, I hear that you guys try to get Tim Tebow and he turns you guys down? Yeah, unfortunately. Here's Raymondo.
Starting point is 01:11:19 Ramo from the sore losers. Yeah, they kept saying Bobby this. So Bobby's doing the interview. Bobby, and then I kind of had to tell him. It's actually the podcast that we do after the Bobby Bowl show. I said you have a lot of traveling you do, and I said we'd love to have Tim Tebow. And the lady said, that's cute.
Starting point is 01:11:36 It's a podcast where they respectfully declined. Oh, man. You guys beat up by that? I just find it out right now But yeah All right, Tebow, I'm not buying your new book I like Tim Tebow I love Tim Tebow
Starting point is 01:11:48 I do I like him I love him What's more of them I do I love Tim Tebow He's a good story I'll put him on Hey
Starting point is 01:11:54 Can you get him on this show Tim Tebow I love talk to him Bring him in Yeah Then you can stay afterwards For maybe 30 minutes Then we can
Starting point is 01:12:00 No new podcast Yay All right What else Sam Okay so heads up We'll just trick them into it You guys You guys

Starting point is 01:12:45 Could be one of our listeners. Could be you. What else? Okay, so speaking of watching TV, I don't know if you're a family that kind of is gravitated towards eating meals in front of the TV as a family, but I just wanted to remind you that try to have some meals around the table as a family because it is important to your kids' emotional and physical development. They'll likely eat healthier so they're less likely to gain weight.
Starting point is 01:13:07 And they're going to engage in conversation with you as a family. And I will say, as a new mom, the last eight months, our life has been pretty hectic. But the time that the four of us, my husband, me and my kids do sit down at the table, I swear to you, it's like our best nights ever. Oh, yeah? And I, so I'm like my own little experiment with this study that was done is that if you can do it, try to find at least a day or two out of the week that y'all can gather around the table because I think it's healthy. Good. I mean, that's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories.
Starting point is 01:13:37 Bobby boom, come on. Well, what a show today. I'll tell you, we had the baby diaper off between lunchbox and Ed. Yeah. Which was good.
