We didn't get a chance to do a podcast intro the last couple of days, did we? No, we didn't. I just forgot yesterday. Friday, I didn't have time. But we're back. So this is something we record after the show before you hear the podcast for today. And yeah, sorry about that. I guess not all days we'll get those up.

A couple of things I wanted to mention. Number one is we never got back around to Eddie's baseball pitch. Remember that story? Oh, yeah. We were worried Eddie was going to look to his son. A little ridiculous. Yeah, Eddie went through... I would embarrass myself.

First pitch at the Nashville. Sounds baseball game. And I saw your video. What did you think? What did you think? I thought it was great. I mean, throwing the pitch, it felt like I was really throwing it hard. And looking back at it, I mean, there was like an arch.

It almost looked like I just loved it. But that's really weird how that works, how I thought I would rocket it. But think about if you're running really, really fast, you feel like you are, but really you're not. But how did you feel you looked? Great. How'd your son think you looked? Awesome. Then you win.

It doesn't matter how we feel. He was so proud of me. He was like, wow, you. that was a great, that was a strike. He said, I saw it from here. That's a strike. That's cool. Dude, it was really fun.

It was a lot of fun. I'd never done that before and it was stressful. My palm started to sweat a little bit. And even the catcher who plays for the sounds, a dude from the Dominican, he was like, that was very good. Oh, stop it. He did.

You can't just go. It went well. He said that was really good. It was actually pretty good. Yeah. Even your form looked pretty good. Thanks, man. Did I look athletic?

More than I thought you, more than I feel like you are. I thought you pulled it off. Yeah. I was watching your golf swing too. It looks a little more athletic than it used to be. Thank you, man. What's happened?

Your hair's growing back. I think I'm just kind of, you know, growing into what I was born to be. You're beating lunchbox all the game? Everything. Not really. Running. Lunchbox is a runner and I beat him at that. That's true.

That's true. Look at the... Here's Eddie. Just dominate. And thanks, guys, for all your support. Here's something, too. I didn't want to talk about on the show because I don't want to say the word dick over and over again. Oh, my goodness.

But you do. What? You say that word now. What? What? He just, he's not really. Like, if he knows somebody named Richard. That's what this is about, Dix. The restaurant?

Oh. Eddie's son wants to go to Dix. Dix last resort. Okay. Like Dix sporting goods? No. Yes, but yes. Yes, basically.

He says he's been seeing some billboards around town and he's like, hey, dad, I want to go to Dix. And I'm like, okay, first off, like, okay. And I kind of ignore it because I get really awkward when he says the word. And then he's just like, he wants to go. He thinks it looks like a fun place. but I've seen those billboards and it looks like a hooters or something, right?

Well, I think, listen, I haven't been to a dix but here's what I think. I haven't been to a dix for a game. Oh, yeah. I think they're rude to you on purpose. Yeah, the rude to you on purpose and the one in Chicago that I went to when I was like

13. They had bras hanging from the ceiling everywhere and their matchbooks, naked chicks. I don't think that's how it is now. Okay. Because they wouldn't put that on their billboard. But the purpose is that it's

their dicks to you. Is that right? But it's the game. guy's name is Dick, but they, yes, and they write on your hat, funny things. Yeah, I don't know if I can take my son to that. Or, or should I? Well, the thing is, I don't think it's dirty. Okay. I don't, whatever he's saying, I don't miss how it is anymore. Okay. I mean, he's saying matchbooks with like... Yeah, like porno matchbooks. That's not it. Okay. I'm not against it. It's just weird. He didn't say like, hey, I want to go to Chili's. Like, I want to go to

get it. Yeah, because it looks fun. It does. The letters are written fun. Yeah, there's all cartoon characters on it. It looks like they're having a blast. He's got like a mustache. I'm not against you taking them to dicks. Well, would you like to take them to dicks with me? Like maybe you and me? Like, hey, man to man, Uncle Bobby.

That would be funny. So are they rude to kids? I think they're rude to everybody. That's the point. Like, they come and are like, oh, you guys are here again to get stupid food. All right, what do you want, idiots? I think that's what it is. I think that's what I did.

People have told me. Okay. I haven't ever been. I like to go to a restaurant and be treated like nice, you know, royalty. Yeah, not a. be treated like a Not some guy named Dick Also

Yeah yeah yeah Well there was the restaurant too Where Eddie was taking it Going to eat and they cook it at the table Oh yeah The griddle This stupidest thing I've heard Yeah funky griddle

Yeah I mean amazing restaurant I'm gonna go there You have to cook your own food Yeah well they bring your pancake batter Your raw eggs and all that And you cook it on the skillet Yeah it's called your kitchen No it's called fun

Like a habachi But you do it Again that's all your kitchen They did a whole story about your favorite fast food dessert What's your favorite fast food dessert? Oh, man. Wendy's Frosty?

Yeah, me too. That wins, number one. And then number two, if I would have thought about it, would have been up there because it's old school in my mind is the Taco Bell cinnamon twists. Oh, yeah. Oh, totally. Yeah. I would eat cinnamon twist like crazy at Taco Bell.

I get bean burritos when I was in college. Crunchy tacos and bean burritos and cinnamon twist. And a big old mountain dew. What about a blizzard from Dairy Queen? Yeah, those were the best. Yeah, that makes it. The blizzard is on here at number five. Sonic Oreo blast

The Chick-fil-A Ice Cream Cone And the Domino's Cinnamon Bread Twifts You ever had those? No, I've seen it, but I haven't had it I miss bread Yeah

Well, it's right It's everywhere you go I know I have to do it Just get and eat it So good But if you cut out bread You lose weight like crazy

Yeah, I know And it's easier So than done Everybody would do it But if you cut out bread And soda is the killer Cut out soda and bread be like Zach Ephron

basically He did Ray watch Yeah to cut those two out Don't you see those people like Zach Ephron And he's so ripped

Don't you think he's on something Oh well yeah I mean he's on a Some sort of supplementation Yeah you know right Don't you think like super You know Maybe a little something

But that's not illegal right For him I don't know For celebrities It doesn't matter I don't know I'm just assuming I don't know

But I would think Because the HGH HGH Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, he's not competing. He's just acting. Yeah, but to have it could be illegal without a prescription.

Oh, right. If there's nothing wrong. I don't know. I'm just assuming. And part of that's the hater part of me going, he's so ripped. He has to be on something. Right. Because here I am, working my brains off and I can't get ripped.

But then again, they also have many hours in their day, too. You know, they work a different schedule. Maybe they don't have a project for three months. Yeah. And their project is getting a body. And sometimes it's their job, you know? Sometimes it is their job. Yeah.

I mean, he had to be pretty ripped for Baywalk. We didn't talk about Chloe Kardashian at all today having a baby. The baby's name is True Thompson. People are like that was a crazy name. I actually thought it was pretty cool. It's a family name. It sounds like a sheriff. True Thompson.

Sheriff of this town, True Thompson. I didn't think it was crazy at all. They got a bunch of kids with odd-ish names. But I didn't think True Thompson was that crazy. I like it. So I didn't get to that today. I have that on the list. I think there's anything else.

We did in the skinny just sets up, but. Oh, you did in the early skinny? I wasn't in the room for that one. The early, early skin, if you don't hear me, that's Amy doing it by yourself. Yeah. That's good because it happens right after this, right after we start the show. That runs. Oh, yeah, I didn't hear that part.

Okay. I'm just giving you heads up. You know? Appreciate that. Heads up on your show. Well, I didn't hear that one. Tomorrow, depending when you hear this, tomorrow, Amy's Bobbo Head, what are we calling them?

Floating Head shirts? Yeah. Amy's floating head shirt goes up. You've chosen the charity? Yes. Yeah. Procese will go to the, or all the money, I guess, goes to the orphanage. So we have, we're making a few hundred of these shirts with Amy's head on them,

and they'll go to the charity in Haiti. But all four of us will have a floating head shirt. And so Amy will do one, and then a few weeks later, I'll have one, lunchbox will have one, Eddie will have one. So no pressure for these to sell guys. Oh, man. Are we going to know, like, are we going to know? Don't tell me numbers. I think I'm only ones going to know.

The numbers of how many we sell? I'll be like, hey, the orphanages will be like, oh, wow. Amy and then they're doing a fundraiser for us. This is going to be great. And I'm going to be like, here's $5. Well, so those will be at bobbybones.com. Because the shirts are so weird. Well, I was wearing them.

Everybody was commenting on. Like, well, like how good they are. Okay. So there's that. Anything else, we want to say before we start the show? Amy, anything you'd like to say? Now's your time? Let it shine.

Now's my time, let it shine. All right, there it is. Lunchbox? Shoot. I hope you have a great day and enjoy your Tuesday. and hopefully you get a nap like me. Oh, I have a question. So since we're recording this, you know, after, but it's before.

You came in today at a 5.8. What are you? I think you've gone up. Yeah, listen, the day after is always when you're most tired from being exhausted. When I flew back at 4-Hm from Vegas and I came in the day after, I was pretty tired, but today I was hurting. That's pretty good. I always get in the groove a bit as it goes.

I'm not a morning person. Me either. And I feel like your voice is a little better. Thank you. Oh, don't even get me started. Oh, here we go. No, well, this morning. You all walked in talking about something. No, this morning I said, hey, Amy, your voice sounds a little tired.

That's not how you said it. That's not how you said it. How do you say it? This is my problem. We recorded an entire thing. And then I can tell he's like not pleased with my, say we did this like four minute thing. I could tell he just wasn't into me.

That's not true. No, I can tell. It doesn't matter. I can tell. It's almost like in my head. I was counting down. I was like, wait for it. Go ahead.

Wait for it. Go ahead. I was waiting for him to call. comment something about me. Consistent though. Go ahead. At least so. So I waited for it and nothing.

He wasn't saying anything. I was like, oh wow, he's not going to say anything. And then he goes, are you tired? And I asked her the question. Are you tired? Are you tired? And then I said, no. Why?

He's like, oh, well, your voice sounds tired. And I was like, it does? And he's like, yeah, the whole segment. Oh, she's all princess. Do you know what she tells the story? It does? Oh, I can't believe it. So then the next thing we recorded, I tried to up it.

I was thankful that you told him. told me so I could, you know, add a little energy. But it's just the way you did it. I'm like, don't you know me by now? Don't you know me? No, you were so, ugh. All I do is say, hey, are you tired? And she's like, yeah, but you just tried to play it off a minute ago.

Like, you didn't say, are you tired? He's like, I asked Amy this morning. Okay, that makes me even nicer. Are you tired? That actually helps my argument. No. We write down on the board how we're feeling. And Amy always lies above.

I do not. She does. She's like eight. No, today I was 7.5. That's the lowest I've been, I think. Because you were tired? Except for that when I started... Her voice was really tired.

Yeah. And I said, hey, are you tired? And she goes, yeah? But I can see it all over your face. I knew you needed to comment something at me, and that's what you went with. This is what we do before the show, before you guys even know. I'm glad we're not a part of it. Anyway, so I did see, would you want me to go back to having nothing to say?

Because earlier you asked me if I had anything to say, and I'm like, I like, I got the better. Exactly. That being said, let's get the show started. I'll be, Austin sold out, Beaumont sold out, New Orleans sold out. I'll be in Wichita Falls, Texas, and I will be in Charleston, South Carolina coming up. Bobby Bonescom, Bobby Bones Comedy.com, if you're going to come to those shows. And now we start Tuesday's show now. Folks, it's your buddy and my...

Mr. Bobby Bones. This is the Bobby Bones. All right, welcome to Tuesday show. Morning studio. Morning. All right, Marla and Alabama. Hey, Marla. Good. What's happening with you?

Not much. My 11-year-old is going to freak out because we called when she was fixing to get out of the car to get in school. And she was, oh, my God, Mom, I would be so cool if I talked to Bobby Boone's this morning. Oh, no. But you can listen. I tell you what, you can play this back on the podcast later and let her hear it after school. Yeah, I'll have to do that. Well, say hi to her specifically then. So, I wanted to tell Amy my five-year-old absolutely loves your morning morning. every morning after he hears it he has to call his dad's work until all the guys

that has worked a joke. Oh, that's awesome. So he loves it. We love you guys. Y'all are so much fun in the mornings and make our drop. We drop over 45 minutes to get to school every day. Well, thank you very much. Appreciate the call. Thanks for listening. Hey, tell your kid hello by name so you can play it for them. It'll be cool for him.

My little boy is Garner. My 9-year-old is Kennedy and my 11-year-old is Abby Claire. There you go. So hello to all of them. You're listening now back on the podcast. We all say hello too. Thank you for calling. Appreciate you.

And that's the deal. Let's get going today here on the show. Amy, you good? Good. Yeah. How good. I feel good. Oh, I feel so good.

Man, we have done that in a while, huh? That used to be a thing. That was amazing. Back in the old school, we were like, how do you, they won? Be like, how do you feel? And the college would go, I feel good. Oh, I feel so good. I like that.

Do you remember that from the old show? No, I don't. Seven, eight years ago? Yeah, now we do this. Appreciate you. It shows you if you do something over and over again, regardless of how dumb it is, they catch us on.

Our show Instagram is at Bobby Bones Show. So if you don't follow that, get over there and follow it. Videos galore go up from this show. So there's that. Bobby Bones. Recognizing people doing cool things. It's ICU.

Annie Martinez was driving to work in Omaha, Nebraska. she saw a house on fire. So she parked, called 911, and ran up to the house to see if anyone was inside. And I don't know if I would do that. Like, I would see a house on fire and maybe call. I would just assume it was already taken care of. Right. I really would.

I think that's what we do a lot of assuming. And so she runs up, bangs on the door, woke up the family. Oh, my goodness. They started jumping out the side window. And she basically saved them before the fire got to them. Oh, for sure. Wow. I just started thinking about me and house.

I'd be like, ah, somebody's like, they got a cover. But these kind of stories are reminding us to, like, not just assume that everything's fine. And if we see something, do something. This kind of sort of reminds me I'm not that good of a person. Yeah. Yeah. But now you know, and so you're reminded to be better. Yeah.

So I see you to Annie Martinez. Let's go to Raimundo with the news now. Ramundo. The Bobby Bone Show. Big three stories. His producer Raymond, a prison fight broke out in South Carolina. Seven inmates were killed. 17 were injured.

Authority said they were fighting over territory and cell phones that have been snuck into the jail. In weather news it's finally getting nicer out. The cold is gone in most places. It's going to be in the 60s and 70s for most of the country. Upper 80s in Texas. Northeast, watch out some rain

over there today. And finally, make sure you get your taxes done. They're due by midnight tonight. This guy's donating his amputated toes to a bar. for a cocktail. Have you seen this story? No, but that sounds gross. This guy's name is Nick Griffiths. He raced in the Yukon Arctic race in February, but his race was cut short because he got frostbite on his foot. He needed to have three of his toes amputated. So he sent them to this bar, and it's called

the Sour Toe Cocktail. It's disgusting already. The hotel bar has been serving the cocktail since 1973. It includes a shot of whiskey with a shrunken human toe. They've preserved 10 dismembered toes, which are displayed on its Wall of Fame. Each toe has its own story. About 100,000 people have ordered the shot. You can't eat the toe. Well, yeah, the toes probably in the drink that they're pouring, but I don't understand why. It's in the cup, in the glass you're drinking. But why would you do this?

I don't know, because it's a crazy thing. So you can say you did? It's the name of toes in the bar. You can't swallow the toe, which has happened, and you get fined 500 bucks. The bartenders tell people you can drink it fast, you can drink it slow, but your lips must touch the toe. That's funny. He knew about it, and he sent him his toes. Isn't that wild?

That's great. Would you do that, lunchbox? I'd drink it. You take the toe cocktail? Yeah, because it's sterilized. Amy, you? No. You guys wouldn't do the tarantula burger. See, I would do the tarantula burger. I'd rather have a toe over a tarantula. Any of that. Eddie, tow or tarantula? Oh, either one? Tarantula.

That toe is disgusting. If I had to choose, I got a toe all the way. The tarantula burger is probably isn't that gross. We eat. It's an animal. No, no, no, no. No, not for you. It's spider. Bobby Bones is on. So something we touched on yesterday was that Amy lost her wallet at the airport over the weekend.

But you're known for forgetting things. Yeah, it happens. Where did you leave it? Oh, I got a cup of hot water so I could make some tea, and I left it there at the little tea, the coffee shop place that was there. And I totally walked away. I went to go buy a bottle of water at the bookstore, and that's when I realized, like, oh, where is my wallet? And right when that happens, I hear, Amy, your wallet is up front.

And, like, they had taken it to the Southwest, like, flight thing so they could make a big announcement. And I almost forgot the water and just boarded my flight. If I hadn't gone to get water, I would have been on the plane and never heard that and gone. No ID, no money. It had been meld to you somehow. But it doesn't matter.

I probably just would have been stuck with no money or ID in Vegas. You lose all your stuff all the time, and somehow you get it all back. Why do you think that is? I don't know. The big man upstairs looking out for the best people? I don't know. Yeah.

My favorite is that time of that, I had to use a pay phone because I lost my wallet. And then I left my wallet at the pay phone because, well, I was sitting there on the phone. And then I boarded my flight and then made it back to North Carolina. Found out I didn't have any wallet. Or phone. Or phone. Yes, because I was using the pay phone. That's right.

And then the people at the gap because I left that at the mall, they saw Bobby in my phone. and they called him. That was before I put a password on my phone. They called and said, uh... They said, hey, we have this phone? I was like, yeah, it's Amy's all going to get it. So...

Wow. She got it all back. Got it all back. Bobby Boneshap. The latest from Nashville in Hollywood. Amy's 32nd Skinny. Sam Hunt wasn't there on Sunday night to pick up his award for single of the year

at the ACN's Body Luck of Backroad, but he had a good excuse. He posted on Instagram that he was celebrating the marriage of his longtime friend and tour manager. So that made the weekend extra special. So Chloe Kardashian, we found out the name of her baby. True. It's Chris Jenner's grandfather's name and her father's middle name.

I'm Amy. That's your 32nd, Skinny. I'm going to get you with that positivity right now with a tell me something good story. Tell me something good. In Virginia, York High School principal Shannon Butler told students she'd jump out of a plane if they raised over $20,000 with a school fundraiser. She made the promise in a YouTube video. It was for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society and the kids raised $20,284.

So over the weekend, the parents, teachers, city leaders, lots of students came out. And listen, is it crazy for someone to skydive? No. Now, I hated skydiving and I did it too. But what she did was she made it a thing and something that people could get behind. And because of that, raised over $20,000.

She didn't want to skydive either. No, but she made it a thing. Wait a motivator kid. Yeah, so I see you to her. I thought that was pretty awesome. Bobby Bones. The Bobby Bones show. Bobby Bones show.

Bonehead. Story of the day. This story comes us from Royal Palm Beach, Florida. A 25-year-old man wanted to be a cop, so he got his own dash cam to fight crime, and he got a ticket. So he takes it to court and says, here, this is why I'm innocent. Only problem is, on the tape, it shows him breaking into a beauty salon. Wait, what? So he had a dash cam.

Yeah, no, I get that. Yeah. He forgot to delete the part where he broke into a store. So he got busted. Whoops. So they're watching it back. In the courtroom. To see his disputed ticket.

Yes. And it shows him and another guy taking a baseball bat and breaking into a beauty salon. Oh, man. I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day. Here's a parenting ethics question for you. It's basically what you read your kid's diary. I tell the story.

It's having a friend of yours. So yes, my friend read her daughter's diary, who's 13, and learned in the diary that she had tried alcohol. But also wrote in there that she hated it, thought it was disgusting, and never wanted to try it again. You know, stuff like that. So my friend, you know, has a dilemma of whether or not she wants to have the alcohol talk with her daughter. Now that she knows, it just never even crossed her mind. She would maybe need to do that right now. And, oh, but she doesn't want to reveal that she knows.

but then she also kind of wants to ground her for trying the alcohol. But she just doesn't know how to bring it up because then she's going to be busted for reading the diary. And she also doesn't want to lose that trust with her daughter. And she doesn't want to read it or continue reading it. It just kind of she came across it and decided to read it. She feels guilty. Well, here's our phone number, first of all.

877-77-Bobby. 877-77 Bobby. You have a mom who read her 13-year-old. year old's diary. In the diary, she finds out that her daughter tried alcohol. And so there are a lot of layers to that she wants to ground her, but she doesn't want to tell her how she knew. But then she also doesn't talk to her about it, and she's glad she doesn't like it. But I don't know, maybe Judge Common Sense has an opinion too. Well, yes. I think you have to look at the long-term effects of this. If you tell your daughter, period, that you read her diary, all that trust is gone. Yeah. It stops that. She can't

get in trouble. It's almost you know, attorney-client privilege. Her in that diary? Yeah. Now, the mom can know and can watch out. It can help her. And try to use that as a way to organically bring up drinking. But she can't get in

trouble. Yeah. I know because it's not like she got busted. I know. Oh, man. So my opinion is you can't go to your daughter until you read the diary because she'll never trust you again. Ooh. Eddie?

Wow. No, there's no privacy in my home. Like, the conversation goes like this. You don't have to write in a diary. Just talk to me about it. Oh, goodness. And then we'll talk it out. Hey, I like to drink.

Oh, man. You're like, you don't even let your kids get on Facebook. You know what I'm saying? But you got to have conversations with your kid. You can't have privacy and them like, be like, I can't tell my parents about this. But then let's say your kid had a diary and did write in it and you read it. Then you have to go to your kid and confess you read something that's theirs. Yeah.

It's tough. It's tough. But what's your answer then? But the answer is no privacy in the house. So you would read their diary. Absolutely. Okay. So you're creating a culture where they have nothing of their own.

No, share with us. We're a family. We help each other out with things. You have tried alcohol. Tell me and I'll tell you the doze and dotes about it. No, you won't. No, you won't. You have to.

But that's not the kind of dad you are where you talk about it cool. You shut your kids down. No, like they'll say like, oh, I want a phone. No. Right, but if. But we talked about it. Yeah, I mean, I think I'm agreeing with Eddie's openness of conversation and trying to create that environment. He's only open so we can tell them no and get them in trouble.

Okay, but I don't, no, I'm not doing that. As long as your home genuinely cultivates that type of communication, but it's hard between parents and kids to have that. Even if it cultivates it, I still don't think you can. Right. I mean, you ultimately, every parent wants their kid to be able to come to them about anything. But how much did you guys go to your parents? Exactly. Never.

But my mom didn't cultivate it. She didn't. She didn't talk to me around anything. We didn't talk around anything. So I can go to her. Like, I had to go to my sister or my friends for things. Like, even girl things. Like, it was weird.

Hey, Brittany and Florida, talk about this for one second. My daughter is seven, and I would absolutely read it. So if your daughter, at seven years old, had a diary, you would go in. Even after you said, this diary is for your most personal thoughts. You can trust me as your mother. Everything you put here is your own personal secret thoughts. locking key, you would still go and read it? Absolutely.

They're young. Why do they need that much privacy? Well, but if you give them a diary or they have a diary, isn't that the thing saying, hey, this is your first attempt at life and having your own thoughts and privacy? Because we all deserve privacy, right? Well, right, but that's like sending a message through Facebook or Instagram. If they're saying it's that they shouldn't be,

are you going to read it and talk to them about it or are you just going to let it go? Well, I think Facebook is different than a diary. The point of a diary is something you keep only for yourself that no one else sees that you write your most intimate thoughts. Facebook's where I just write my political beliefs. Listen, you're not wrong. I just think if you tell someone this is where they can be private, that should be where they are able to be private. If you have the rule I'm coming into your bedroom at any time and going through your bedroom and that's established, then that's the rule. You're a kid.

You know your mom's coming to the bedroom at any point. but I do not think you're wrong. I just see the other side of that. I write my diary. If you guys read it, I'd be mad. Oh. I write it every day after the show's over. Hey, Brittany, no.

A lot of people agree with you, and I appreciate your call. All right, thank you. You're welcome, a seven-year-old. I'm probably a little too young to have a diary, diary, diary. Yeah. Yeah. I'm thinking my kid's seven, and he can't even write. To be fair, he's not from America.

I either. Just a quick catch-up. Amy's got a friend. Friends got a kid found her daughter's diary, read it. She shouldn't have read it. I don't think, in my opinion. Right. She feels really guilty about it, too, by the way.

But she found it in the diary that her daughter had drank alcohol. And now she wants to also scold her for something that she shouldn't have known about. Because she was just sharing in her diary. I tried alcohol for the first time. And she actually wrote that she hated it and she never wanted to drink it again. But still. All right. Here we go.

Here's Jessica in Florida. Hey, Jessica. Hey, Bobby. Thank you for coming on the air. What do you want to say? Yeah, I just think a general in our house is that, you know, nothing is private. If we have a reason to go looking through your room, and I'm not saying her friend did, but we buy everything. We provide for you. And kids need to know that, like, parents kind of know everything.

And it's kind of a healthy fear of, like, if I get caught, there might be consequences and just kind of knowing that, you know, we have the right to kind of go in if we feel the need to see or look around for any reason. What if they buy their own diary, though? It's still under our roof. We still, you know. So they never have privacy ever while living under your roof? No, they have privacy. They just know that if we feel the need to kind of figure something out or we come to them saying,

we know this, just so you know that we know this. And then we have a conversation about it and the do's and the don'ts and the whys. We always explain why. What that would do to me is make me better at hiding things. That's what would do to me. I would go, okay, well, I'll figure this out. I'll start my parents and hide even more from them. I mean, if they feel the need that it's so important, they need to hide it,

then if that's the kind of, if that's how they want to be, that's their choice. That's how I'll be, I'm telling you, I'm telling you, I'll be like that, though. I'll be like, okay, you're going to do that. I'll go buy a mailbox at the post office and hide all my stuff in there. Now, hey, listen, I appreciate that call. Thank you very much. Let's go over real quick. Jenna and Augusta, Georgia.

Yes, sir. What are you? Well, with my daughter, she has a diary and it is private, but as far as my kid's cell phone, there's nothing private about cell phones. I think that's fair. Yeah, I say that. I think even if you give them a social media account, I think you can snoop in there as long as the rules are stated.

Let's also just put it out there. Everybody's different, every family's different. Whatever the rules are, as long as you're consistent, because they're really the most we can ask from anybody, professional, personal, mother, son, daughter, It's just consistency. If you say this is your diary and it's private, you can't look in the diary. If you say everything's open at any time I can look at anything, as long as you're consistent, that's where it all lies.

So every situation's different, but if you tell someone this is private, then it should be private. Because once it's not, they will never trust you again. If you say all things are open, then all things are open. So Jenna, I appreciate you listening in Augusta, Georgia. I just want to say I'd like to command my parenting advice today. once again, someone when no kids nails it. Okay. Yeah.

Establish the rules up front and be consistent. Not even with just parenting. Just in general. All you can ask for is consistency. You don't have to like it. Eddie, it's awesome. You're consistently late. It's fine.

It's all we can ask for. He's not consistency late. I think of my negatives too. I'm like, Bobby thinks I'm consistently... You said something the other day. If we don't set a date, you'll never... do it. And I was like, is that how I'm perceived? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I know. That's a rough bummer. Like, I'm like, that's a negative on my part. Like, that's a big... It was for,

I gave you to like June or something to do something. May to deliver cookies to my neighbors. That's what it was. I know. I have it on my calendar. Have you done it? Not yet. No, yeah. We're right. We went to do it soon. Don't be crazy. Sometimes I wonder about the time people have and sometimes it's, I feel like they have too much time on their hands. Because there's a lawsuit against McDonald's. Do you see the extra values mill lawsuit? Oh, yeah.

So it's been thrown out by a federal judge because this woman filed the suit alleging that a single extra value meal costs more than buying its content separately. So it's called an extra value meal, so you should be getting extra value on it. Yeah. Oh. She says she bought it. And it goes into, she bought a sausage burrito for breakfast and the extra value meal costs five bucks. But then she bought them all separately and it costs $4.9.

But here's the thing, you can't sue Amazon because they're going clearance and the prices above where you find it somewhere else. That's not line to you? No, do you, no, it's not extra value mill, we promise. It's called business. Yeah. If it was extra value mill, cross my heart up to die, then maybe I'd be upset. It's called creative marketing. Yeah, just put a name on it.

Wow, she's looking out for it. It's not a contract. Yeah, but she took that to court and now she has to pay a bunch of court costs for that. Extra value that. Oh, man. There's a person that was playing the lottery, and they won the $533 million mega millions only played twice in their whole life. The New Jersey man who won the half a billion dollars was playing for the second time ever. The story of how he won quotes a little amusing.

He said he decided to buy his first ever mega millions ticket when he didn't win. His wife looked at him and said, why buy? But he went back and he bought a Diet Coke and a lottery ticket won half a billion dollars. Oh my bill. Goodness. Yeah, $533 million. Wow. Yeah.

So happy for him. Ring the bell. He's done. That's a lot. That's a lot. That is so awesome. So, and we've done this before, but the calls are always so different. What's the biggest thing you've ever won?

This is always such a good topic. Call us if there's something you want. We've had people that have won cars on the radio. People that have worked for this show at one time want a car on the radio. Jill used to work here. Her parents want a car on the radio. They call her. 11. I want a car. That's crazy. Yeah. That's a big thing. Oh, one time I got to give away, I mean, through the show, but I mean, we had an event and I gave away a Cadillac. Someone came to an event and they won a Cadillac. Yeah, the stuff really happens. Whenever I meet our listeners that win full trips and they went. Yeah. Hey, I won the trip to the Grammys. I'm like, you did? Like, I'm starstruck by this. Call us 877, 77 Bobby. The biggest thing you won. That's the second lottery ticket to person never buy. And they have five.

$533 million. Million. That's a lot. I mean, when you hear $8 million, you go, yeah, that's a whole lot. But that's not even conceivable. No. I can't even picture that. You can buy every house.

Everything you ever wanted. Because at $8 million, you're like, Tim McGraw is $13 million house. You're like, oh, well, that lottery winner can even buy Tim McGraw's house. That one right there can buy anything they want. Yeah. Yeah. Woo.

One, two, check. Bobby Bow. Scott wins half a billion dollars in lottery. It's only the second time he ever played it. So I said, what have you won? Hey, Natalie in Kansas. Yes. What have you won?

airfare tickets. Wow. All kinds of cool stuff. Really? Mm-hmm. So did it really happen? Did you go? Not yet.

Oh, wait. When was this? It was just in December of last year. Oh, wow. Mm-hmm. So you're going to the Bahamas and they're paying for what? They're paying for the resort at the Bahamas at the Bahama Resort. You get to eat?

Nope, but none of that's included. So, but it's still a free trip somewhat. Are they paying for the airfare? Yes. Okay. The airfare and hotel, I'm in. That's considered a free trip. Yes.

That's cool. That's crazy that you get that for free. You pay taxes on that? We actually filled out a form, but we never got it, so we didn't have to. Oh, well, you can trust the government will not be coming for that tax money. Yeah, yeah. Hey, thank you very much, Natalie. Thank you for calling. I appreciate you. Thank you so much. I appreciate you too. Let's go over here. Hey, Jesse, what's happening? You're in North Carolina. Tell me what'd you win? I actually went a trip to the Grammys about four years ago, and it was sweet. Yeah, so how'd you win it? It's actually a funny story

So my friend actually called in It was the night caller But she put my name in Because she had already put her name in And so I didn't even know That I was entered And then when they called They're like hey, how would you like to go to the Grammys?

Yeah, actually, we did one of those touristy Hollywood tours, and Weezer's dad actually did the tour for us, so it's pretty cool. Weezer's dad, like Rivers Cuomo's dad, the lead singer? Yes. Wow. That's crazy. That's random. That's cool, though.

Hey, I appreciate their call, Jesse. Appreciate you. How about this? Hey, Bethany in Florida. Hi. We're talking about things people won. What did you win? A house.

Oh! Well, you won a house? How much a house cost? Um, it was $298,000, I believe. How did you win a house? Every year, the YMCA does a YMCA Easter house. And so, did you buy like a raffle ticket? Yep, they were $10 a piece and we bought six.

So for $60,000 you got a $300,000 house. Yes, we had to pay. the taxes, but yes. So you live in it? Yes, we got to build it from scratch. Oh, what? Wow. That's amazing. It wasn't even already built. Could you have taken a lump sum of cash? Yes. Yes. What was the lump sum? I believe after taxes, it was $175,000. And you felt you could build the house and sell it for more worst case. Worst case, yes. Yeah. That's what I've been thinking too. Like, what's the absolute worst case? Wow, look at you. Yeah. Yeah. Your fortune right there. Just happening. Bethany, thank you for the call.

No, I don't know. Hey, thank you very much for calling. Appreciate you. Man, man, man. Like, all those things you're not winning, lunchbox? A house lottery. Yeah, that could be you, buddy. Keep playing.

Thanks for hanging out this morning. Talking about people winning random things. This dude won half a billion dollars. His second time ever playing the lottery. I said, hey, do you win anything? By the way, Shannon and Virginia's on. Hey, Shannon. Hey, Bobby, good morning.

Good morning. What'd you win? I won $25,000 on a quarter ticket. Wait, what? What's that mean a quarter ticket? So, Virginia Lottery, you can play four quarters for a dollar, or four plays. You have to play a dollar. But if you play four plays, you have four chances to win $25,000.

And I won $25,000 on a quarter play and actually almost through the ticket away because I didn't know it was a winner. So do you think to yourself there's no way this is actually real? Yeah, so I went to the gas station, and it was like a bad day. I was standing in line, and there was a bunch of people online, so I'm like, okay, I'm just going to scan it on this little scanner they have, and it says, cannot process the cashier. So I went to throw it in the trash, and I'm like, no, wait a minute, I better just stick it in my pocket.

So I walked around with it in my pocket for like a week. Oh, oh. I know. It was crazy. And then I scanned it. I went back to my desk like a week later and sit down and checked it. And I literally started shaking. I'm like $25,000 is a lot of money to a regular Joe, you know?

$25,000 a lot of money to a non-regular Joe. Yeah. Right. So I called my husband and he was freaking out. So he met me and it was like the longest drive to the lottery place to cash it in because I was like, what if it's spontaneous. Yeah, it's like a baby when you drive from the hospital. Like you're like, ooh, put in its own chair, I buckle that ticket in, the whole thing.

Yeah, yeah. Wow. Thank you very much. She said, yep, it's a winner, and money is just like one week. So they gave us 17-7 right there. They take like 29% in taxes. And then what did you do with the money? We bought a four-roller and hardwood floors and paid some bills, and it was a good day. That's a good girl.

Perfect. By the way, I met you in Charlestville at the Paramount. We did your cookies and stuff, an amazing show. Oh, thank you very much. I appreciate that. Yeah, we were tickled to meet you. So, yeah, that money went fast. I can't imagine if it was like $25 million.

I would freak out. There's 10 four-wheelers. I mean, I can't imagine he went $25,000 on a scratch-off or any ticket. Hey, thank you, Shannon. Thank you. Appreciate you. Hey, over to Amy real quick.

That's skinny. Bobby Bonson. Here we go. The latest from Nashville in Hollywood. Amy's 32nd Skinny. So we've talked about how AJ McLean from the Backstreet Boys is making a country album, but we have a few more details.

He's talking about it saying that he's Coming in to disrupt country. He's too cocky. Like, I don't like it already. I'm all for anybody trying anything. It doesn't matter if it's country. It doesn't matter. I just love all music.

But you can't come in cocky like that. I already don't like it and I'm rooting against him. I'll be honest. I just, because of what he says there. He wants to shake things up by having a country pop urban sound. But just do it. Don't say you want to shake things up. The worst mistake I ever made was coming in going, I'm a bull in a china shop.

I'm about to wreck. Because I didn't like me. So you learned from that? Absolutely. And now you're giving it. If you want to shake things up, just come in and shake. You don't have to tell people you're shaking things up, because if you're shaking it hard enough, it's going to get shaken anyway.

So now I'm going, shut up. Don't tell me what you're about to do. Just do it. That's all. I like that you learn from your mistake. Oh, yeah, for sure. For sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I'm very, a lot of introspect and retrospect and speck-de-spec. I've been doing a lot of that. Yeah, what else? So nearly a million dollars in cash and jewelry was stolen from Usher's home, and it's just amazing to me that people are able to break into these. celebrity houses and steal this stuff. Do you know how much Usher kept in his nightstand? I saw like $25,000 or something.

20 grand in cash just chilling in his nightstand. And like tons of jewelry was taken, but the thieves also took the security footage. Usher did you get robbed? When I told the Hussein. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There it is. Thank you. I'm Amy.

That's your 30 seconds guinea. Cool. Let's go over to Lunchbox with his Tell Me Something Good this morning. Tell me something good. All right, lunch, twice. There's this fisherman out in the ocean, and he sees a shark floating in the water, and he pulls it on his boat, and it's a dead shark, been attacked by another shark, and he goes, man, the stomach's moving.

He does a cesarean section and cuts out 95 baby sharks and releases them out into the ocean. Wow. Wow. What? Yeah. So the shark was dead. No, I mean, I get it. That's just crazy. It's amazing.

I wonder if he does it with a pocket knife. Like, I really, like, this is my head. Like, where do you grab? How do you know where to cut? And listen, as someone, I mean. I mean, I've filleted many of fish in my day, especially early on. I haven't done in years. But I know the insides of, my stepdad would know the inside of fish well enough to know where to cut.

But this guy must have been around a lot of fish. He's an experienced fisherman and he said, I fished to eat. So he did take the dead shark and cook it and eat it. That's not the story. Right. But the story is that he's secessioned 100 sharks. And they all just. Wait until they tell that story of their kids.

They're probably telling them right now. Wow. I hope they got that on Instagram. video is awesome. Okay, we'll put it on our Facebook page. Folks, it's your buddy and mine. Mr. Bobby Bones. Let's go.

Transmitting across America. Talking about people that won things and Tiffany's on. Hey, Tiffany. Hello. Where do you live? I live in Smyrna, Tennessee. What did you win? I won a million dollars off a $20 scratch-off ticket.

Wow. Wow. All right, walk me through it. Okay, so I bought. a $20 scratch off ticket. It was Tennessee Millionaire and $100. Well, my husband's seen it in my car and he was like, don't ever buy another $20 ticket.

You know, he's anti-gamble. So I was like, that's fine, whatever. So I take it back in and he was out of town and I cast it in. And the lady said, you want to buy, you want to go ahead and buy one more? And in my head, I'm thinking, well, I'm already ahead. So I was like, yeah, I'll go ahead and buy one more. So she gives me my $80 back and a ticket. I go out to my car.

I scratch it off. and it was the number 36 and it was a million dollars. That is so awesome. Okay, so you scratch it off. What do you do right then? Because you're holding a million dollars right there in your hand. What do you do? So I turn on my car light to make sure I'm seeing it correctly.

So I was like, no way. This is not true. So I walk into the gas station and I get the manager and I went to her and I said, I think I just want a million dollars. And she said, if I put it through the machine and it's start singing, we're in the money, then you want a million dollars. So she puts it in the machine, it starts swinging the tune. And I, like, knocked a whole pyramid of bottled waters over because I was just like,

oh my God, are you serious right now? Wow. So, okay, okay. So then what? Do they take the ticket from you? Do you go to the lottery office? Yeah, you have to go to the lottery office. There was a sheriff in there, actually, and he had me sign the back of it.

He walked me to my car, and I was, you know, like, why are you walking me in my car? and he said, because there was a long line, and everybody just seen what happened. Yeah. I'd probably robbed you. I ain't trying to rob anybody, you know? That's a million dollars. So I went home, hit it in my pillowcase, and called my husband because he was traveling for work, and I said, I have something to tell you.

And he, of course, I don't have time. Like, I'm really busy because he was driving. And I was like, no, seriously, I have something really big to tell you. And I said, I won the jackpot. And he was like, you hit what? He thought I hit a pothole. Oh, of course. I mean, the odds of you hitting a pot or way more than the jackpot, right?

I know, right? So I said, no, seriously, I hit the jackpot. He's like, I don't have, babe, I'm at work. And I said, I want a million dollars. And he's like, send me a picture of it. I'm sending him a picture. And then he calls me. He's like, oh, my God, you want a million dollars?

I was like, yeah, I did. And I've been trying to tell you that for a million a minute right now. So, yeah. So then how long ago is this? You can Google me. It was eight years ago There was only 20 winners Let me ask you this question

Because the person behind the register was Encouraging you to buy another ticket Did you do anything nice for that person? Yes Oh, there we go Go ahead I gave them $1,000. There was two girls

Wow, that's awesome Because this little girl Every morning she would check me out And she was always talking how she needed to get her hair done And it didn't have a lot of money And so I was like, I took my, once I went and cashed it in, I gave her a thousand and the manager a thousand and told the little girl, I was like, now go get anything done. Go get your hair done, get your nails done. Look at you. Do you still have any of the money? Yeah, I've said, we have three children, so all of them, we invested a lot of our money.

So we own a rental house. Of course, I splurged and got me an in-ground swimming pool because, you know, that's what I had to have. But yeah, so we invested a lot of our money. Look at you. Look at you, Tiffany. Did the lottery ruin your life? Guess what I hear a lot of times. I think it could have, but we were smart and got financial advisors that walked us through

because we were nowhere have any money, you know, like that. I signed a pre-nup immediately because I'd have been mid-marriage and signed another one. Let's sign a pre-nup, honey. Right, there she is. Lunchmark showing me the picture. A million dollar check. We googled you. That's crazy.

I told you. That's crazy. Well, I appreciate your call. And congratulations to you. Pena Rose on that million-dollar nose, man. Well, thank you. And I appreciate you guys. Thank you so much.

She's a millionaire. It's crazy. Yeah. Probably not anymore. What is the best pool? Yeah, she got that in-ground pool. So over the years, lunchbox, what have been some of your refund amounts?

over the past five to six years. Like 12,300, 11-1, 10, 5, and one year was 8,000 something. It was a little... So it's going down? No, no, that's not in order, but one year I don't know what happened, but I only got 8,000 something.

That was a little sad. So lunchbox every year comes on the year and brags about how big his refund is. Because we go, wow, ours isn't that big. We wish we had a bigger one like you, Lunchbox. But he's like, oh, yeah, I do my taxes the right way. and you write off all kinds of stuff. Everything.

Gas money to work, lottery ticket losses, because you can do that. Also, trips, if I go to a city where we're on the air, that's a tax write-off. Also, even if it's not related to work at all, if we're on the air, you're like. Yes. Okay. Because if I meet a listener, if I'm in the airport and a listener comes up to me, that's a work trip. If we talk about it on the air, it's a work trip. Do you write off all your cable bills?

Cable bill. internet. iTunes. Yeah, iTunes. Anything I download, yes, it's written off. If I buy a new shirt for a work event, that's a write-off. But the rule is if you wear it for a non-work event, it's not a write-off anymore. But first thing is I wear it for a work event.

But that's not how it works. In your eyes. No, not his eyes. No, no, for real. Like, if you wear it to the bank on a Tuesday. The law's eyes. Okay. So you see what we're working with here.

And this past year, I am going to be a dad this year. So I was trying to figure out a way to add a baby into last year's taxes because it was conceived in 2017. Did you find that way? No, I didn't. That was a letdown. I did a lot of research, crunching numbers, reading over the fine print. IRS doesn't go for that.

Oh, this is the one thing that you're not going to let him go for. Well, no, I follow the rules. I look up things and I do my research and a kid. So this next year is going to be a big one, but last year it didn't count. So now he will announce his refund from his 27. Today's tax day, by the way, for his 2017 tax returns, how much money will you be getting back? Oh, my friends, the IRS will be giving me a check. Bay me, my friend, pay me.

$9,260. Wow. Dude! Like one day. I have a question. Yes, go ahead. Does he have an accountant? Like, do you not?

Like, so both of you guys are in trouble. Lunchbox LLC. Yes. It's just you. Oh, so you're doing your own taxes and making it. Oh, it's not LLC. It's lunchbox CPA. Sorry.

You're not a CBA, though. You're not. I took accounting in college. But you're not a CPA. Those are letters that you get once you've earned them. Like doctor. Like Ph.D. D.D.S.

Now maybe not the same stature. CPA isn't the same thing as it Ph.D. or, you know. That's just yours, though. So you don't get it for just taking an accounting class? Oh, my goodness. But now that he's married, because I mean, when he was single, sometimes you would get these.

huge thing. So is that you and your wife together? $9,000 is huge. I know. This is just me because we don't combine our money and she, I had to go a little conservative because she was nervous about, she gets a little nervous. Yeah. She gets a little nervous. And then I'm wondering, you know, does she have a say in the refund, like how y'all spend it, what you do with it?

She has a say in her refund. Do you know what hers is? No. She had to file an extension because she didn't get her, she doesn't get her stuff together. You're the one of your relationship with your stuff together? Yeah, that's weird. Yeah. I think it's pregnancy brain.

She forgot Tax Day was approaching. Yeah? Yeah. Well, congratulations on your basically $10,000 refund. Thank you. Thank you very much. It's a good day. I like tax day.

Most people dread Tax Day. They get, oh, I have to turn this in. I have to do the paperwork. It is like Christmas morning. You get to send this off to the IRS and then you just wait for that check. Woo. When are you going to buy with it? I got a lot of plans.

I think I'm going to go on a datchelor party. I think that'll pay for my datchelor party. And I don't know what else. What about like the baby, actually paying for the baby? Well, I've already started doing that. That's my paycheck. This is for me. That's for daddy?

Yeah, this is for daddy. This is daddy's money. So basically lunchbox is getting $10,000 back as a refund. Yeah, $9,260. Hit that button again. Yeah. Our phone number, by the way. If you'd like to add, have a little input on this, is 877 Bobby.

You do your own taxes, right? Yep. Whenever you're about to hit enter and see that number. Man, my palms get sweaty. I get nervous because I want to know what the final tally is going to be in. Then it boom. It's, ah, your eyes get real big. You're just waiting for it.

Wait for it. There it is. It's like, surprise. Congratulations, buddy. Thank you. Yeah. I mean, one day really like the, IRS is going to call and be like, I'm sorry, you owe us $100,000.

And then what are you going to say? Now, you got the wrong guy. I didn't do it. It wasn't me. Does that work? People try it, but only it works. Lunchbox just announced he's getting $9,000 as a tax refund. And so Carolina and North Carolina, you are a CPA, correct?

Hi. You hear this guy over here talking about his tax refund. What do you think about this? I am so stressed out. I almost changed the radio station when I was listening to it because I was like, I can't listen to this on the way to work because I know that it's not normal, but I've had heard people doing this a same similar thing, and it's not right. And I got more stressed out for lunchbox because as a CPA,

I was worried that he was actually putting down that he was a CPA on there because that's very wrong. How'd you do with that? Do you write down? No, no, I don't write that down. You do when you fly, but you're a doctor. Yes, because then you get more respect when you're going to. on the plane when they're like, oh, doctor. I just don't even think people pay to you that.

Absolutely. Why else would they have that there? It's just a, whatever. You hear I'm talking about the things he's riding off. How do you feel about that? They're right at all. I have a, I mean, I have my CPA license. I have to go through 40 hours of education each year.

And a lot of those line items that he's talking about do not seem like they would be itemized deductions. But he took a class in college. I took, yeah. And I got my business. administration accounting, undergraduate degree, my master's in accounting. I have my certification, which is a four-part four-hour exam, and then I had to work under a CPA for a year before I officially got my license to practice. But he went to Mrs. Wilson at 9 a.m. at Texas, San Antonio.

Sunday, Wednesday, and Fridays. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, well, thank you for the call, Caroline. Thanks for not changing the station. It's uncomfortable that made you feel. I appreciate that. You're welcome. Have a good day. All right. I appreciate you. I appreciate you. You got to hit this The Morning Corny What did the nuts say when it was chasing the other nut? What did the nuts say when it was chasing the other nut? I'm a cashew.

I'm cashew. This is a body bones show. Bobby bones. I'm so awkward. I'm in Vegas and we're there for the ACMs. and I'm walking in the hotel and the thing about Vegas at ACM time

is that the whole city's out there if you're in the music business so you see everybody and the cool thing is you normally don't see everybody at the same time but there you kind of run into everybody so here we go I'm in for one day

I get in I'm ready to do my Vegas thing you know go up watch some friends and order some room service I'm walking into the building where I was staying I was staying at the MGM, the signature.

Signature. Yeah. And so I'm walking in and I see old Davily Murphy, right? And I know David Lee. I see him standing outside. He sees me, we see each other, and it's like, what do you do, you know? So I walk over to him and he comes to him because we like each other. But he reaches out his hand, and then I go for the hug, and then we switch.

They go, oops, and then I reach out my hand, and he goes for the hug. And we just kind of bumped into each other. It was so awkward. And neither one of us, we probably just kind of not touched at all. Yeah. Because I like them, but I don't think either one of us are big physical, you know, like you got to touch each other to say hello. But it was just that weird thing where I was like, dude, I enjoy you as a human.

And we just never, you just couldn't get it right. And it was so awkward that we kind of just kind of touched shoulders. and just walked out. The shoulder, the old shoulder, bro. Yeah, he was. See you later. And then the whole, like, for the next five minutes, I was like, I'm so stupid. Why didn't I just look and see where he was going?

I'm so stupid. Do you think he thought about it for five minutes after? I don't know. Like, I'm still thinking about it. It's Tuesday. I know, you're still thinking about it. I know. I'm still thinking about how awkward my run is when David Lee Murphy was.

That song is so good, though, man. This song from David Lee Murphy is awesome. I like that guy. It's super nice. I'm just such an idiot. I'm so uncomfortable. in social situations. We went to a party that night

and they're like, hey, you should come to the party? Not a big party guy. But I go, you know, I'm going to make an effort to go and hang out with some people that I never see. Because what else am I doing that night? Nothing. I mean, nothing. I had a flight up for the next morning,

but it was so early that I thought, what's a difference? Yeah, it's Vegas. You're just going to be taking a nap anyway. Yeah. So I'm ready to get my Viva on. Viva on Las Vegas. Walking around with all your jewels.

We go to this party and you have to go and go up the elevator and it's like m's, ums, ums, ums, ums. And you can't even hear somebody talk to you. It's like, hey man, are you okay? How are you doing? What?

And I just go, I could just talk to this guy in Nashville on Thursday at 11 a.m. Yeah. And it's all these people. You can't hear. Nobody's dancing. Oh, you weren't dancing. It's too crowded.

Oh. I don't even dance to that kind of music. I don't even know how to dance. Yeah, but you were getting your Viva on. I was trying. My Viva was planned to use. You can use it. It was like this.

Oh, that kind of music. How do you dance to that? You don't. And I wasn't, you know, I don't have any Molly, whatever that means. Molly, get out of you, Miley Cyrus. So, you know what I ended up doing? And there's just so many, I didn't even make a lap. And there's so many people.

So I ended up talking to the guy from Top Golf, that runs Top Golf. And then I talked to the person that runs Coca-Cola. Oh. Yeah. And then I thought, you know, I'm done here. I'm out. They made a Coke bottle and put my name on it for like party favors. They did.

And so. At the event. Amy, you had one too. You didn't get one? I didn't get one. Did you go to the party? Yeah, but after you'd left. Eddie was still there though.

Yeah. I was there for about four minutes. Oh, yeah. Two minutes with Coca-Cola or. Top-Gov. I walked in. Two minutes of Topgolf. Again, full Viva.

Right? I was ready to go, right? Viva. Las Vegas. You can't hear anybody. It's dark. and I can't see. And so I can't see anybody.

So I can't talk. Can't see. I don't want to touch people. You're thinking too much about it. I'm not good. You are not ready to, regardless of what you're saying right now, you were not ready to get your Viva on. I tried. My mind.

You didn't even want to touch people. He made the effort. He went to the party. That is getting his Viva on for sure. Like I Viva a bit. I did. My heart was in Viva mode. I didn't even know y'all went to go Viva over there.

I was with y'all. next thing you know, y'all left. Yeah, I just kind of follow feet, you know. It's just like Eddie and lunchbox. And then lunchbox left. Lunchbox just party. He went back to old school lunchbox a little bit and just disappeared with some random people. I don't know what happened.

He finds random people on there. He's gone. But I went back to my room, went to bed, slept a couple hours, and got up and flew back home. Oh, y'all missed Jake Owen. He was good. Oh, yeah. You stayed? No, yeah.

Losers. Yes, we're y'all bailed early. I didn't bail. They made me go. I would have much because I knew Jillian Jack and I was playing and Jake and I'm a big fan of both of them

Jake on and so I left I would have much rather been able to see people and hear music because it was like Calvin Deadmouse playing up there

in the I don't know who it was yeah I don't know so then by the time I got to where y'all were I was like oh yay I'm going to see them and I was like well

yeah miss Bobby he went to bed yeah I was like really I went to Eddie I said hey man I'm gonna go and now am I seen and Eddie's like a

follow you out. All of a sudden, I'm in the elevator by myself, going home. I'm going to get an Uber and just go back to the room. That's it. I order of food. Had me a sensible salad. I mean, I think about it. Oh, you got some late night.

Yeah, Viva. Had a sensible late night salad. Let's get your Viva on. Most hotels wouldn't have food that late, but Vegas, you can do that. It was a delivery service. Oh. Yeah, wasn't. For salads.

Yeah. Okay. Oh, my gosh. It was the whole thing. But yeah, the David Lee Murphy thing, it haunts me. bit because I know he leaves that awkward going man Bobby is awkward like people are right because I know that's my thing people like ooh you know we can't get a read on him it's just because I don't know how to be read I don't have a lot of experience with people in social

situations or you don't know to shake hands I don't like shaking hands I don't like hugging but you have to do something you can't just walk up and stare at somebody in the eyeballs and go what up especially someone that you don't see all the time yeah it's so awkward to just stand there and you have to at least touch their shoulder. Or just like you did a shoulder bump. I would just, oh, don't start. Don't start. Because I did.

It was like a handshake into a hug and then I realized the hug wasn't working. So I put my arms down and just leaned in. Hey, what if David Lee Murphy thought that was a new thing? Like, all right. He's out shoulder bump and everybody now. Yeah. So David Lee, you're probably not listening. I'm sorry.

I know I made an awkward for both. Switch it up a little bit. More times we do tell me something good, but we go to one story each time. All right. Get said? So over to Amy now with her Tell Me Something Good. Tell me something good. So when two teenage boys saw a cap-sized boat off the Florida Keys, they didn't hesitate to help.

Shout out Mason Baker 17 and Wilcoffin 18. They were out fishing with their uncle when they saw a boat completely overturned. As they got closer to help out, they saw five adults, a four-year-old boy and an infant clinging to the cap-sized boat. Holy cow. Yeah. So they helped. Yes, they helped, did what they could until the Coast Guard arrived about a half hour later. The three-month-old baby was airlifted just in case he had ingested saltwater, but no injuries reported.

And luckily they saw them and were able to call for help and do what they could. That's a lot, too. You're two people and you see five overboard. Yeah. And not only that, the baby? Yeah. There's a baby in the boat. In the water.

In the bar. Yeah. Shout out legally. No. Sweet Home Alabama. That's a good story. And water's always tricky, too, because you're not just saving someone. You're also risking yourself.

Yes. Folks, it's your buddy and my Mr. Bobby Bones. This story's funny. In 1970, on this day in history, Richard Nixon, then the president asked Johnny Cash to come to the White House. Johnny Cash is like, all right. Then Richard Nixon says, hey, would you perform Okie from Escoggi? Which is not a Johnny Cash song. Who sings that originally?

Merle Haggard. Oh. So. Yeah. It's like, hey, Carrie Underwood, would you mind coming up and playing the house that built me? Yeah. Yeah. That's the same thing.

So Johnny Cash said, no. And he played a boy named Sue. He was big and bent. What's the song? That's a little disconciliation. That's a little disconnected, right? Like someone at least should be telling you. Mr. President, don't ask him to come do a song that he doesn't do.

But yeah, Johnny Cash, I like it. He said no, too. That's funny. Yeah, I like that. I was reading the story about Amazon, how people of the factories are so big. They have to pee in bottles. Wait, huh? Because they can't make it to a bathroom? Well, so, listen, I read like five minutes ago.

The factory is so big, and people don't want to not be able to hit their quotas. Oh. They're just peeing in bottles. And you guys think you have a bed. Yeah, no, that's not right. No, we just have to race to the bathroom drink a song. But I mean, yeah, wow, that's some pretty high expectations. Yeah, Amazon warehouse workers pee into bottles to avoid wasting time.

And this is like an investigation, like a labor investigation. One ex-worker said staffers fear they'll get it in trouble for taking too long away from the job. Wow. That is not the work environment I pictured at Amazon. What do you think they're doing? I don't know. High fives and bucks. Amazon just seems like one of those companies where they make it like super fun.

It's a 700,000 square foot warehouse, the one we're talking about here. 1,200 workers. They say it could be a 10-minute quarter mile walk to reach the two toilets on the ground floor. Oh, wow. So you lose 20 minutes by going to the bathroom. Crazy. I'd probably pee in a bottle, too. I think my bladder's getting smaller.

I have to pee all the time. Yeah, something with our age. My thing too is I can never get all the pee out And sometimes I get bored peeing so long I just like finish I'm done It's weird My whole system is weird

I'll be peeing and it's like forever And I'm just like you know what You don't have time for that I don't And I'll just cut it off And then just go You're like all right It's already been five minutes

That's why your bladder feels small That's why you have to pee again But sometimes I'll exhaust it And then four minutes later I'm going I have to pee I'll be laying in bed and I get up I don't even play If I have to pee I just get up

I used to try to play a little bit. I still play. Yeah, I don't. That's why you have a UTI, though, because you play. This is a miniature one. I know that was my tip to people. Don't hold your feet. Yeah, but.

What do you guys mean about play? Like, what do you mean? Don't hold it. Like, play the game. Let's see if I can hold your pee. Okay, okay. Play the game, Eddie. You know the hold your pee game?

And they end up miserable because you lay in bed for an hour trying to hold your pee and you're like, I could be asleep right now if I just got to have been peed. Yeah, you got older. The pee thing starts to be real. I know. Yeah. It's annoying. It's like I can never fit.

It's like my dog. He would always be able to pee. Even when he was done, he'd be like, oh, you know what? I got a little more and he'd pee. Oh, well, they save it to mark their territory. But I feel like they're saving it. Maybe that's what you're doing. Yeah.

Yeah, maybe you're supposed to go release it all over the place. Different places. Top five songs in country music, number five. Heaven from Kane Brown. They just can't wait to go. Number four, Brett Eldridge, the Long Way. Take me the long way you That song invokes some sort of feeling.

Oh yeah. It's such a good song. Listen, we hear a lot of songs. We hear all the songs, frankly. For some reason, that song still makes me go, man. Yeah, well, because you want someone to go. Maybe that's it. Maybe that's it.

But, yeah, that song makes me feel, like, makes the hairs around my little nipples. You need, okay. All right. I wonder if anybody's, like, heard that song. song and kind of used it. And didn't tell? No, kind of used the whole story and the lyrics of like, hey, why don't you take me the long way around

this town? That's what I'm saying, like they used it but didn't say they got it from a song? Yes. Yeah, they probably shouldn't do that. Why? Because when you get caught, it's all ruined. Jason Aldeen at number three. Now I'm picturing guys using all these songs, like, you just make it so easy. B.B. Rexa

and FGL at number two, meant to be. And Jordan Davis, number one. this week with singles you up. Here he is. Look, that guy. I ran into him in Vegas. We talked for a bit.

I'm a big fan of him. He's big dude. Yeah, he's tall. Yeah, he's big broad dude. Like, big broad hug. Yeah. Did you give him a good greeting? Or was it an awkward one with him too?

Well, no, he came right at me. Okay. The Daniel Lee Murphy one thing and I was awkward because both of us, I think, You're kind of, not one of us were huggers, and one of us was opening the hug, and then it was just a thing. So how did you greet Jordan? No, he came up and just a big hug. Yeah, yeah, it was easy for me. Number one song at Top 40 is Zed and Marin Morris.

Baby! And the number one alternative song is from Lovely the band. It's called Broken. There you go. And there's your number one songs. There's your list of songs there. I feel so in the loop now. The Bobby Bones Show

Yesterday Eddie won the Bopit challenge Where they got the Bopit and Ssuke it last the longest So as a winner you won 20 bucks And you get to assign their profile picture I got it both of them Both of them and they're specially custom made Oh they're already made? Yeah I'm done Okay so Eddie has created a picture for Lunchbox

And Raymundo to put up as their Instagram and Twitter profile pay For one week So what's lunchboxes Okay so you know how we all think he looks like Doug funny He doesn't think he does. Right. So I got a picture of Doug Funny and I wrote, all I do is lose, lose, lose. That's funny. That's funny. That's funny.

Ciel. That's cute. That's cute. That's funny. All right. What do you have for Raymundo? And then Ramundo, since he wants to be Mexican, I got him a Mexican flag and it says, Ramundo, proud to be Mexican.

Let me see that one. Look at that. Yeah, I mean, that one's. I mean, it's. So he probably's going to love that. Yeah. You think? Like, you went hard at lunch.

Ramundo? He was kind of passed on. You were like, he wants to be Mexican, so I gave him a Mexican flag. Honestly, I kind of felt bad for Ramundo. Why? Because he only made it to like three, what, seven seconds? Seven seconds. Yeah, I know.

My daughter did better than that last night. First try. Did they play Bop it at home? Oh, that's all we did last night. And they love the beat of the music. They're like, Eddie, they dance, and they pull it. And they dance and they twist it. So, okay, get them those pictures.

All right. We'll have them loaded up during the break. Doug Funny? You got over there? Yeah, fun. All I do is lose. Yeah, bend those rules. So at Usher's house, apparently he just has cash and jewelry laying around.

Someone went in and stole six watches, a rose gold Jesus necklace. This necklace alone was worth $250,000. The necklace, the one necklace. Man, that's not diversifying your portfolio. The thieves were pros because they walked away with the security camera footage, too. They don't have any leads. The burglary occurred last week of March, so about three weeks ago. Yeah.

His housekeeper arrived in the morning to find the signs of a break-in. The first floor window was open, dirty footprints leading upstairs, and the closet's messed up. These are professionals, why are they leaving windows open and dirty footprints? I know, I was thinking that. Are they Santa Claus? You get forensics up in there. You're just walking around on the carpet. He had 20 grand in cash on the bedside nightstand.

Just chilling. That's probably him just emptying out his change for the day. Oh, yeah. Good for him. Saving it out a little by little. His estranged wife's jewels are gone. They're about to divorce. So I read this and I go, oh, I bet someone sold it for him.

So we'd have to give it up in the divorce. That's why I thought. Now that you say that? Makes sense. Because let me say this. If there's a million dollars in something laying around, it's worth the $50 grand a year to pay someone. to watch it.

If you have a million dollars in just jewelry, what's $50 grand a year to have someone watch it? Not security footage. And they stole the footage? Yeah, yeah. Come on. They knew where to go. Yeah, you're right.

So my mind goes to, okay, divorce, split it up. He didn't want to. And I'm not even sure if that's what's happening. He didn't want to go abscess with that Jesus necklace. Rose gold. That's his Jesus necklace. Only his. When I'm told...

It just, for such a pro job, there was some really rookie mistakes. You shut the window back. You don't put boot prints in the carpet. Is that right? That's why I hear. I remember coming home, getting robbed. I was at work. I came home from the studio.

I walked into my house and opened my door. And I got, huh, so I was not right. I couldn't place it immediately. I look around and at the time I had a PlayStation 3, some other electric stuff, TV. Yeah. Like, what happened in my stuff? Did I move it all? Just for a second, I was going, what?

I couldn't put it all together. And I looked at my window and it was busted out. And I go, huh. Did I do that? Did I knock that window? Was I drunk? And I'm like, well, no, I don't drink. So.

And then I started going, well, windows out. Stuff's gone. Well, I guess I've been. Oh, my good. And so it hit me. I've been robbed. So immediately you freak out. You go, are they still here?

Yeah. So. Are they hiding somewhere? So I'm like, oh, oh. And then I think of my dog. So my dog was upstairs. He had his own room. I live by myself, so he could stay up in his room.

And I'm going to go, oh, please, I hope he didn't mess with my dog. And I go up and they didn't. Obviously, they went in the room to see what was in there, but they left my dog alone. Thank goodness. Oh, yeah. And so my dog was okay. But then I went and I was playing poker a lot then. I was playing some pretty big games.

I was playing a lot of illegal underground games. That was cool. That was a bad time. for me. I was winning, but I was always scared. Did you get like a weird house or something? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, multiple. It's not good. That's about the sketchiest thing I've ever done was play consistently

for months at a time in these underground poker games. But I was winning. At any point, by the way, which could have been rated. Yeah. Because they were, they did get. That wasn't the troubling part. It was they would get robbed. Oh, yeah. And so people would come in with guns. They'd get tipped off as where the games were. They'd come in with guns

and rob everyone. They take all your clothes off. Everybody gets butt naked and they take everybody's money and they walk out. And what do you do calling go, hey, police, I was just an illegal game. Would you read the people who just robbed my illegal game? That's what eventually made me stop. And then I stopped playing poker because I was too obsessed. But it went in

and I was like, huh. And then there was a hammer laying there and the idiots left their handprints on the hammer. That's what they use to break the window. Amateur. Yeah. It's like ushers people. Rookies. Same guys. So, but yeah, it's weird when you walk in and you've been robbed. And then other radio stations were saying I had faked it and I was going, what? What?

happening here? I mean, I'm not above manipulating the system. I was going to say. But that was freaky to me because they knew I was on the air. They waited for me to get off the air and they went rob my house. Not good. I was so scared for months.

Because I had been robbed at gunpoint. I don't even jump at said to the radio station. I ran from that one though. I didn't even try to fight. Do you guys think I should have fight? No. No. Yes. No. No. You think I haven't went for not fighting? Yes. One on one. He had a knife. You had a computer.

Oh, what? Is it a backpack? Is it a shield? Email. Cinema virus. Yeah. I mean, he can swing the backpack at him and knock the knife out. Come on.

Okay, no. I mean, I think that running was a good one. Oh, I ran. Yeah. Whenever we watch a security footage and be getting jett. It was like, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dun-circles. Go in circles. Woo-woo.

Yeah, it's wild. Because I walk from the parking lot up the hill in Austin. And he goes, hey, bones. And I turn around, shoo, coming at me. instinct. Not to fight. My instinct is that of a wimp because it wasn't to fight. No, I think it's smart. It's not wimp. It's smart. You got to run away from the situation. It's not wimpy. You're risking your life of you. Fight. You can get stabbed right in the heart.

But like a real man. Think of the story I would have had. You think all the baves I'd have right now. Exactly. He said or he could run and get stabbed in the back and how'd you, running from someone you died? Stabbed the back. Yeah. Oh, man. Went out like a real hero. Oh, got me in the back. The only reason that he stopped chasing me was because I jumped over a wall. Dang, parkour. Well, the wall was even. Okay.

It was a concrete. But it was a big drop off on the other end. So I went way down. You were barefooted too, right? No, I had to kick my flip-flops off. Yeah. And so I kicked my flip-flops off. Another smart move.

I run, jump over the wall and wipe out, like hard wipe out. Like, boss up my shoulder, my knee. And he didn't want to jump over the wall. So he did he? Well probably because he didn't know. I mean, if he had known the area, he probably didn't know, okay, I probably could jump off that wall. But since he didn't, he probably didn't know how far down it went or where. Or he was intimidated by my Spider-Man, like reflex.

Probably you just, no, you weren't like Spider-Man. You fell. Yeah, it was more like this. There's more like, bugs. Sandals go! And then I was like, oh my gosh, I'm not going to chase him. He's not worth it. He was not worth it.

Because then he grabbed my backpack and ran off with it. But they found my backpacking in a bush. There's nothing in it I know so I'm like gosh I don't know He knew my name I know So the point was to

I don't know what the point was Because I didn't stop and ask him Excuse me What's the point of this Before you rob me What would be your intention here? I know you want to stab me right now But before you do

Let's just get to the bottom of this I'm super curious Then I went in And I went on the air I know and you were like shaking That's crazy Well I didn't shake until I start talking about it So I went in

and I was like, all right, turn on the microphone. I was like, hey, I just got robbed or had to jump outside. I didn't get robbed. I guess he did steal my stuff, huh? Yes, he did. And said, I got jumped outside the building. It was crazy. And then I started crying because my emotions were just like, pf.

And I started, and I called 911 came up and the cops came up. It was a whole thing after, but then another radio station said I'd fake that. No, the cops thought I did too. Oh, they did? Yeah, there was footage. Yeah, but there was security footage on that one. And then the cops were like. and it was like, is that a banana or a knife?

That was never a thing. That's a joke that lunchbox made that you keep holding on. It looked like a banana to me. You guys never saw the footage. You guys never saw the footage except for the cops, me, J, our program director, and Pam. And Pam. And Pam, our market manager. Bones, could it have been a banana.

I mean, what a, listen. It could have been. It could have been a gun. Oh. I mean. But could it have been a banana. It could have been. It could have been a letter.

It could have been a mango. But no. I mean, the better story would have been a gun. Oh, for sure. And I'd already had a gun at my head once. I got pistol whipped and didn't even feel it. Never felt it because your adrenaline's pumping so hard. All I remember was saying, going, how about that?

That's got pistol whipped. And who'd you call first? The police or the news? The news. Yeah. But it was real. I know. It really happened.

All this stuff happened. But Bobby's like, okay, I'm okay. I don't feel anything. I'm okay. I don't feel anything. I'm okay. Everybody's okay. Well, I didn't know I had a career in radio that was going to work. That's true.

I was struggling. And I thought they're never going to catch these guys. They had masks on. I was at ATM radio station event. And I thought they're going to masks on nothing. We'll never catch them. So I called the news. Then I called the cops.

Within the same five minutes, but I'm going to make sure I got my news hit because I needed those Little Rock ratings. That's right. Yeah, that's a thing. That guy with the banana got me. Yep. Wait, so lunchmark started the banana? Yeah, he did. I forgot.

Okay. No one saw the footage on the show And he I'd be like I'd beat him up Yeah, he just had a banana Yeah All I was a banana Come on

He's like bones I have you a banana Patrasio You need to be healthy for the air Bobby's running That's funny It's actually not though No it's not funny

No it's not It's serious It was serious Thank you The Bobby Bones show Tomorrow we will put our Amy what do we call them? Head shirts?

Yeah. Floating head? Well, so I was wearing these shirts with Amy's head on it as a joke and I'd taken all these pictures of her head and I was wearing shirts around Instagram and not telling her what it was for. But what we're going to do is tomorrow

the Amy head shirts will go up and all the money will go to the charity. So do you know what charity you're going? I mean, obviously the orphanage is always close to my heart so I'm still trying to figure it out but I mean that's where my kids came from. I know there's always needs there, so I feel like that's where I'm drawn. So tomorrow, there's shirts with Amy's head.

Amy's head shirts. We'll just call them. We'll go up. We're not making a bunch of them. So you'll be able to get your own. We're going to unveil this thing today or what? Yeah. Go and post it on your Twitter.

Yeah, at Radio Amy, if you want to see the head shirt. We'll go up tomorrow. Which, by the way, I posted on my Instagram picture of me with bangs yesterday. Yeah, I saw that. Yeah, I just want to do that. Why'd you do that? It's not a good one, man. Feeling it out?

I was just playing, actually. I'd wash my hair. I didn't watch my hair since I left town because I had my special shampoo. And I was gone for a week and a half. I just didn't watch my hair. And so it was all fluffy. And so I pulled the bangs in front. And I just posted it being little, oh, funny.

People were killing me online. Were they? What did they say? Ugly. On my Instagram, Mr. Bobby Bowens is pictured me. I was like, check out my bangs. I like that you just said bangs, question mark. They're like a thousand comments.

It's basically all going, no, ugly. I thought I was pretty good. I voted. Yeah? What do you vote? I voted no. And it was like me and 99% of people. Yeah, it's really.

I was like, that one percent, they're just being rude. Oh, you want. Oh, wow. Like they were voting, so maybe you would do it so they could be like, ho-ho, look at his name. What if they liked it, though? I don't know. Mr. Bobby Bones on Instagram.

By the way, you ever hear the myth that if it's rainy and wet your joints get achy? Yes, that happens to me. I always know. Urban legend. It's not urban. I can tell my knee starts to ache and I like, it's going to rain. The next thing you know it rains.

Harvard Medical School did a whole study. Yeah. And I'll give you their results coming up in a second. Okay. That and I always wondered if it's cold outside and your head is wet, do you get sick? We have both of these. You know who died? It was Harry Anderson from Nightcourt?

I used to watch. I've seen every episode of that show. Remember this year? song? One of the greatest TV themes songs ever. I mean, I was really young when this show was on, but I've seen every episode. Harry Anderson, he died in North Carolina.

He was 65 years old. Look at that. Do you know that show? Yes. Yeah, I watched it with my mom. Yeah, Harry T. Stone was his name on the show. I know all that stuff. Bull.

Yeah, bull. hole. Yeah. Yeah. The bailiff. Yeah. Bull. Cool.

Yeah. And Marshall Warfield was the other bailiff. Who is the prosecutor dude? Dan Fielding. Yeah. Oh, you're, how you retain that information is crazy. I was raised by the television. I know.

And now I was thinking of shows I've seen every episode of Nightcourt, Roseanne, the Fresh Prince. Friends. Friends. The office. Full House. Whole House. Seinfeld. The office.

Like all those shows, I've just seen them all. especially now if they're replayed too but even then family matters step by step I was crushing that stuff man you know I'm somewhat I like to finish things

if I start with them it's tough for me now in this era of all the shows you there aren't you know I say the same thing about music and I did an interview

with variety do you read that by any chance I interviewed with me where I was talking about artists now now that Amy's mom

she reads nothing anymore yeah did you do even news I'm like hey did you read So I have to go. Some new, uh-huh, that's not, sometimes I'm caught up.

Or Instagram. But you're, that's, that's your life now. I know. It's fine, Amy. It's tough. But there just isn't,

there's never going to be a universal rock star anymore, really. I mean, even the biggest one, right, Cardi B is probably the biggest thing in music. She's not something that crosses everybody's world anymore. You guys even know who she was three weeks ago. Yeah, no, I still really don't. Right.

But compared to Lady Gaga, everybody knew Lady Gaga was. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I knew Taylor Swift was, who Britney Spears was.

Yeah. We're in the age of everything's all cut up now. Okay. The days, even the TV show, there's not one massive show

that everybody watches. You know what I realized that I'm so behind on and I was so walking dead. Oh, yeah, I'm a few behind because I was watching

the Americans. That's my point. We all have really fantastic shows that we watch. And seven years ago, there just weren't the options. So the show was that fantastic

we all watched it. Now there's just so many we can't all keep up with them. I know. There was a time. where I thought I'd never get behind on Walking Dead. And now I'm like, whoa, I'm so invested in El Chappo. I can't.

Yeah, you're talking about that show more. Yeah. Every time we... I think it's the only thing she does, though. It's not mom. It's my husband and I do it together. We're talking about El Chappo. I know.

I'm talking about El Chappo, too. Oh. So, and there was, I got busted because we were in Vegas, you know, and I figured maybe he was dabbling in an episode. And I, so I watched just a little bit of one. What stays in Vegas? It shows up on the, Netflix, and I thought I'd switched to my account because we have kids, mine, his.

But last night, it's okay, I caught up with him together on it and we're good. You cheated? That show is so, I did. In Vegas. Amy cheated in Vegas. But I went back and watched it. It was fine. Typical.

He did too. Typical. You go to Vegas. Typical. The common story. Yeah, you go to Vegas. You screw up the marriage. That'll choppe.

The Babo show. Here's Amy's pile of story. So have you heard of 40X when it comes to movie theaters? I know you think movie theaters are dying, but you know, there's 3D, but 40X? 4DX. Yeah. No. It is a concept that engages all five senses.

Isn't one of those chairs that moving around and throw water on you and stuff? That would be miserable. There's high-tech motion, see special effects to stimulate wind, snow, fog, lightning water, smells. So, like, scents. Oh, we get so car sick. Watching a movie. Taledega Nights to be barfing everywhere.

I went to one of those in like Disneyland where a dinosaur was walking up up to the right side of it and it was breathing in your ear and you could feel the air.

It was awesome. Did anybody vote in the mayo chup thing? Oh, I saw they're bringing mayo ketchup to America. Heinz put up a poll last week to see if we wanted to bring it

here because they currently have it in the Middle East and 500,000 people voted looks like the sauce is coming to America so it's a hybrid of ketchup and mayo called Mayo Chup.

I hate mayo so it's just not appealing to me. Oh, it's so good. I hate mayonnaise. You know there's no dairy and mayonnaise? Don't care. Okay. Why would you think there's dairy because it's white? It's white and creamy? I never thought there'd be, I don't think

about mayonnaise. It's disgusting. Yeah, what else? Eggs and M&Ms announced their newest flavor and it's orange vanilla cream. So basically it's going to taste like an orange cream sickle. They're going for the whole chocolate orange cream flavor. I thought Eminems were not flavored. I thought they all were different colors, but it tastes the same.

Oh, that's just your regular old playing bag. M&Ms, but they roll out different flavors, kind of like Oreo. Oh, okay. They have different themes that they go for. And these are going to be available at Dollar General if you're into orange Crimson. That Dollar General, they bring some good stuff to the table. Didn't they do that?

The Pringles? The Pringle's? Those were oddly awesome. And you could only get them at Dollar General. I remember that. Yeah, what else? So Cardi B, she played Coachella and... Boy, two things you're not quite sure how to say, that she just kind of skated through.

I know how to say Cardi B. Yeah, okay. And I know how to say Coachella? Yeah, a little bit, you're like Cardi B's. Like a little bit, you aren't. Not cool? No, no, I'm just saying you weren't really confident in either one of those. But go ahead.

Well, the story I'm going off the dome. Okay, stop it. Stop. Now you're cool again. You got it, your hip. She's back. Yeah. So, Cardi B played Coachella, but she signed her contract with them before her single

blew up before she got big. Single album. Whatever, her cut, everything. She signed the deal. So she only getting paid. like a low, low amount. So for her to get there, she has to cover all these expenses. So it's actually costing her half a million dollars to pay Coachella. She's making no money. She's playing both weekends. Yes. I believe they're paying her $70,000. That's correct. But when you go, it's 70 grand,

but she can't go do a halfway show. She's Cardi B now. She has to take the whole thing. Lides, crew, everything is costing her a ton of money. I mean, that's a good problem to have that you're worth a whole lot more than you were then. But yeah. Remember that one time it made me think of how we booked Lady Gaga for something before she blew up. $10,000. $10,000. We had like a private, like a prom. Like it was a very intimate setting.

And all these listeners and stuff got to come. And it was Lady Gaga. Booked her four and a half months out. I remember sitting down with our boss Jay going, who are we going to get? And just dance hadn't come out yet from Lady Gaga. And I was like, well, she's pretty cheap. We think the song could be middle hit. And so we paid $10,000 for her.

And she came. And by the time she got there four months later, she was a monster. Oh, had we wanted to book her? think you could have. Her rate was at the time, because she only had a hit and a half then, it was $130,000. But we got it for $10,000. What a steal. Yeah. That's what I like to do. I like to invest.

Yeah. I have no idea. Go ahead. Maybe that's my file. There you go. Folks, it's your buddy and mine. Mr. Bobby Bones. Let me know. Transmitting across America. This is the Bobby Bones show.

That's right. I'll probably do Bobby's Bops tomorrow. I play songs. That I like. It's like a few of them. I like the highlight. And I think last week had Casey Musgraves. I haven't listened to her album a lot since it came out.

I'm just a big fan of her music. Amy said she saw her yesterday at the grocery store. I did. Her and her husband there were shopping. But I didn't say anything. I just casually went and looked at the rice cakes. And I was like, oh, there's Casey Musgraves. Were you wanting to get rice cakes?

Or did you just walk over there because she was over there? No, no, no. I was already there. But, I mean, I didn't want to make. I didn't know. I couldn't remember how much we've interacted. I know that if I were to have said hi to her, I would have to be very clear, like, I work with Bobby Bones. Like, we didn't really know each other.

So it would be awkward, but. I think she's going to come over to the house and do a podcast, the Bobby cast, in the next few. I think in the next few weeks. I'm moving studios and the whole thing. Yeah. Oh, well, I mean, she looked adorable. I was like, oh, of course she looks super cute at the grocery store. Did you?

No. No. Here, I'll play some cases. Here's High Horse. Oh, I love this song. Yeah, this should be on the radio. I mean, it is. I'm playing it. Hi horse, here we go.

Casey about good. I bet you think you're John Wayne. Showing up and shooting. There is no link between achy joints and wet weather. I know you didn't want to hear that. I beg to differ. Researchers from Harvard Medical School went through all the data from 11 million people and found no relationship between rainfall and a prevalence of joint or back pain.

This is what they say. No matter how we looked at the data, we saw no correlation between rainfall and physician visits. even on weeks where rain fell for the entire week that calculated joint and back pain complaints and it was identical. So maybe it hurts all the time, but we just are reminded that we're supposed to hurt more when it rains. What did you find out about wet heads?

Because my grandma would always say, if your head's wet, don't go outside when it's cold. My mom too. I too did my research, and no, it's inaccurate. No, coals are caused by a virus, so no, that is not true at all. Who knows what crap we believe? You know?

And my study was just, I googled it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Listen, if you search hard enough on any study, you can find whatever you want. That's why I believe those Harvard guys. I said up late last night, though, watching American Idol. And it's finally, I think it actually gets good now. Listen, yes, I was on and I was mentoring. But I think it gets good now when you get to vote.

Because I think the audition process lasts a little long from my taste when they're doing the... The auditions where they go and sing... What do they call those? Auditions? No, something auditions. You know where they go to the cities and they sing in front of Luke and Katie and Lionel. And then they go and they sing again.

But now they're the top 14. And so I think it gets good now, starting next week. And so here is Maddie Poppy, the singer-songwriter girl. And she was performing Bubbly with Colby Calais. The rain is falling on my window pain. His duets last night. That's Colby. Undercover staying dry and warm.

Give me feelings that I have eyes. That was really good. I like her a lot. I just like her style, the singer-songwriter, you know, acoustic guitar. And then it reminded me the time I stalk Colby on an airplane. And then... That was great. Yeah, for like an hour. That happened.

Yeah. She lives in Nashville. She's, I think she's doing a record, like a country record. Really? Something kind of ish. Yeah. So I do like Colby Calais. I think she's probably creeped out of me.

Rachel Platten, you know, the girl. This is my fight song My I will bite song Yeah She did a song With this girl named Mara Mara's 16 years old And they just had a piano and played

And Rachel Platton played the piano here Can you hear my voice This time This is my fight song Take back my life song That's Mara Prove I'm all right She's 16 years old

Oh My power was turned on Starting right now, I'll be strong I'll play my fight song And I don't really care I'm such a... Again, I know these contestants So probably a little bit

It was cooler for me But when they were singing that, I got chills a little bit It was that good. I was like, yeah, now we're talking here. Now we're getting to the real people. But it was good. And then there's Caleb Lee Hutchinson He's the country guy.

Super funny. He's from around Atlanta And him and BB Rex that it meant to be. I mean, girl, don't you know you're beautiful. He's 17 or 18. And it's easy. He's crazy.

I mean, he's a country as all get out, man. I mean, I spend a time with him. And you know he's friends with is the dude from the 80 miles from Santa Fe guy? Oh, yeah. Oh. Yeah. What's his name? Dustin Christian.

He has to me names. Hold on. I have the shirt on right now. Yeah. Doesn't have to be names. But yeah, no, it was good. I watched last night. And I thought, God, it's good.

Like to me, this is where I would check in is when you get to vote. And it's legit. Like, even the judges. I can tell you from when I was working with them, the producers don't say anything about who'd put through. It's all Katie, Luke, and Lionel. And they pick.

And I would think, nah, if that's a producer, I'd be like, hey, push this person up. But they didn't. So, yeah. I know you haven't. I've been doing this TV show on me called American Idol. He's been America's mentor. He's been on there a couple weeks,

and he's on rooftops and on bridges. And those are the two shows I've been. invested in. Oh, you saw them? Thank you. What's what I'm talking about? Yeah, look at it. Yeah, I like to support Bobby. Thank you very much. Appreciate that. You should go back today if you have some time at work and listen to the show. We start hours and hours ago. So there's a lot that gets covered, including

Lunchbox's tax refund, which is a lot of money. And every year he comes on bragging about it, you can hear just how much money he's getting back. Just search Bobby Bone show on demand on iHartRadio or iTunes. Amy, the plan for today for you is? Oh, not taxes, even though it's tax day because I'm done. And working out, errands, and then hanging out with my kids. What kind of errands you have today? I have to return a bunch of stuff to the mall.

For what, the weekend? I bought stuff for Las Vegas. Did you wear it and then you're taking it back? No. This is stuff. That's very lunchboxy. Yeah. No, no, no.

And then I definitely need while in there a new pair of workout shoes because I'm getting a hole in the bottom of mine. Which favorite count? I think pound for pound the best shoe is the boost. Adidas. It's just, it's a boost specifically. Ultra boost. Yeah, sure. Okay, that's for me. So I got to find me a pair.

For working, just general shoe. Like I have on boost today. These are white boots. Oh, those are those slides. Yeah. But they're not. I wouldn't work out in these. Oh, those are just casual wear.

Casual wear. Your casual active wear. Yeah. But yeah, I would recommend, and I don't get paid. I'm shoe boy out of my heart. But the boosts are really good. Just a general tennis shoe. What kind of shoes you wear on lunchbox?

I got some Nike, glide runner, something like that. Yeah? from Vegas still haven't done that. Got to get the suitcase out of the front walkway because the wife gets annoyed that lays there for a couple days. Take the dogs for a walk and don't you worry. I'll be hitting that nap. Yeah, how hard today you think?

Today, not that bad. I'm not that tired. So maybe an hour and a half, hour and 45. Celebrate tax day. I had two suitcases to unload yesterday because I was gone for so long. Oh, yeah. What a pain in the butt that way. You got for like 10 days or something.

Yeah. I had to have, because I went to my comedy tour, someone bring me another suitcase. I closed a switch amount mid-trip. Wow. But I will not check a bag. I won't. I will not check a bag. Because you're scared you're going to lose it?

No, because I don't want to have to wait at the airport. I don't have time for that crap. I'm trying to wait for a bag to come down. You're on the move. I get so upset with someone's checking a bag. I forget him. Are you checking a bag? Yes, and normally I'm always checking a bag.

Then we have to wait half an hour at the airport because I ain't be checking a bag. So you're telling me you never checked a bag before. Very rarely. I know, but I mean, if you got to check a bag, you got to check a bag. You can't be mad at someone for a needed hair products. You can't tell me how to feel. feelings aren't wrong. How you act on them is.

You know what else I got to find today? What? A pinata. Oh, me too. I think we all do. Oh, yeah. Yeah, of course. Yeah, I need to...

For your daughter's birthday. I got to Google Piniadas. Yeah. Did they have pignadas in Haiti? Is that why? She's never... No, I was trying to explain her what a pinata was. She's never...

She can't even... She was like, what? You close your eyes and you swing a bat and candy comes out? And I was like, yes. So then I got to decide if I'm going to fill it with fruit or like candy. No, not fruit. Stop. Stop.

Stop. Stop. It's got to be candy, Amy. It's not fruit. No protein bars either. Should I fill it with pamphlets about a healthy diet? No. We're going to go. See tomorrow. The Bobby Jones Show.
