Well, you just gave us the whole catalog. Well, I guess I like them all. But if you had to pick one. Okay, this one. Tequila Mixer Close on? Mine's probably broken hearts, though. It's a good one. Here's to the past.

They can kiss my glass. Risky singing that one. Sometimes I don't say glass. and then I bet the devil drives a coup de ville Yeah, he'll be in next hour Pretty pumped about that

I did see this question And I answered it Before I read the answer There is a question That is being asked In job interviews That has gone viral Give me your answers

To this question You're in a job interview, okay? All right, the question is You've been given an elephant You can't give it away Or sell it What would you do with the elephant? Eat it one bite at a time

No, you don't eat the elephant That's mean They're in danger Eat it. That's what you would say in your job interview? Eddie? Oh, I would just ride it. I would get a saddle and I would ride it around town, show everyone my elephant. I'd be known as the elephant man. Oh, interesting.

You? Oh, I'd build a whole place that people come ride it and make some money off of it. There's only one elephant in town. Are there any other elephants in town? This is the elephant I would be doing. That's the business aspect. Yeah. Isn't that, could that be animal cruelty?

I mean, I was going to eat it and you got mad at me. That's mean. That poor elephant just giving to you and you're going to eat it. Mine was a metaphor. Like, if you give me a big problem. I'm going to solve it one section at a time. Yeah, you just said eat it though. Yeah, but that's the metaphor.

You're the one that taught me that metaphor. But that wasn't the question. Okay. The person said it's actually the right answer is open a business where you hire the elephant out for events. That's it. That's not what I did really. I was having my own events.

They can come ride the elephant. I don't want my elephant to be gone. I love him too much. Somebody might take him. One of my friends, her dog, some workers were at her house. and they left the door open and her chihuahua escaped.

They still can't find it. And I wouldn't want that to have my elephant. Yes. Although I think it would be easier to find an elephant than a chihuahua. Who knows? Never lost the elephant. Eddie, I don't know the truth.

Thank you guys for hanging out. Let's go. It's Monday. We're pumped you're here. Bobby Bone show. I appreciate you guys hanging out. Thank you for sending all these emails. You guys ask us for a lot of advice.

We read them back to you in the mailbag. You send an email and we read it on the air. It's something. We call Bobby's Mailbag. Here's the email. Hey, Bobby Bones. I have two friends who recently got married last year. They've been together for a few years.

They seem super happy. Recently, her husband tried to make an advancement through Snapchat, so there's no record of it. I turned him away, but felt conflicted on telling my friend she's not the type to believe me if I can't show her the messages, so I haven't told her. But now, he's asking me if she cheated on him, which I haven't told her either.

I don't know the answer to that. There are obviously other issues happening between them now, and I'm pretty sure they're separating. I don't know who to be honest with. Do I tell my friend everything? Do I keep it to myself? What's done is done. Are there any issues with me stirring the pot?

I appreciate any advice you could give. Thanks. Confused listener. It's all directions, right? It's he and her. I'm confused. What all they know again? So she got a Snapchat from him,

it sounds like if him going like, hey, baby. Gotcha. Okay. And then he ends up going to her. and going, hey, is she cheating on me? Okay. Weird. So.

Oh, that's Snapchat. Here's my advice. If they're splitting up, and this is your friend, go just to tell her. Be like, hey, yeah, he sent me a Snapchat. I know you don't. I don't have a picture to prove it because it went away, but he sent me a Snapchat. But she's worried that she may not believe her because she has no proof. But here is the general rule about life.

Are you ready for, you probably waiting for this for your whole life? Yes, come on. Are you ready for the general rule about life? Sure. If you're confused on what to do, if you're torn on what to do, just. tell the truth. Now if you're leaning, I should probably not tell the truth because it's something bad's going to happen. Occasionally, I believe that they're white lies. Okay. I do. I think to protect people sometimes you don't need to tell them the truth. But if you are torn on what to do,

you're like, I don't know. Tell the truth. That's the general rule about life. Because if you're wrong, at least you're going down, tell them the truth. You don't want to be wrong and not. If you choose to just stay out of it and not say anything, that's not lying. It is by omission. But her confusion is what to do. Do I say nothing and let them fight amongst each other? I say, just say nothing at all. You do, Amy?

Say you best. I don't know these people in the full real story. I don't know. We know. We're only acting off the data we're given. Yeah. But according to the general rule about life, which I've just created, if you're torn on being honest or not, if it's a 50-50 tear, be honest.

And they're breaking up anyway? They're apparently talking about it. Okay. So my advice to you is to just tell her. If you're confused, just tell her. Be like, yep, he sent me this. I know you guys are going through trouble. Figure it out.

Hopefully you guys go to counseling or talk with somebody and get it all figured out. And she's going to be proven. I said, well, I can't, but I just wanted you to know. And if you don't believe it, that's great. But then it's off. The burden's off of you and you don't deserve the burden. And you have to risk like that might put a wedge in your friendship, but that's okay. You spoke your truth and you know it.

So that's no longer your problem. Confused a listener as you signed your name. Yes. You don't deserve this burden that you are carrying. So you just share the truth, burden be gone. And what's the general about life, Eddie? Tell the truth. You can't go wrong when you tell the truth.

I didn't say that and that's not true. If you don't know what to do, always tell the truth. Can I say it again? If you don't know what to do, always tell the truth. Yeah. There you go. Unless you said what, if people need to be protected? There are times protection.

Yeah. You know, hide in your cousin if he broke the law. Stuff like that. I think it was a, you know, a crime where nobody was hurt. All right, thank you for that email. That's kind of a deeper one. We do one or two deep ones a week. Sometimes we like the lighthearted stuff, but I feel like we taught everybody a lesson.

We feel good? Yeah, that was good. And remember, I am an expert. Prenthease not. All right, there we go. Close it up. We got your email and we've read it on the air. Now it's about to close Bobby's mail back.

Yeah. I was reading this story, and it's about road rage, where these two cars, one had accidentally hit the other one, like a little fender bender. They kind of been at each other a little bit. They get out, one punches him in the face. Young guy punches the old guy. Then it turns from road rage into robbery. He steals his phone.

I have the whole video here. Oh, my gosh. It's on the New York Post. Like, they had this story. Wild. That road rage stuff is no joke. And I say that until Eddie confronts a road rage driver on the street.

I do it all the time. With his family in the car. No, no. Eddie, that's dangerous. What's the story? I do it all the time, guys. In this situation, there's a guy who's turning on to, is a two-lane road that I'm going on. He's turning on to my lane, but I'm already in it,

but I'm on the right side of it. And so he thinks that I'm trying to cut him off. And he's like, honks his horn. And like you say bones, he laid on it. It wasn't the friendly, bibbip. It wasn't the pipip. Hey, I'm right here. It wasn't, hey, Bobby, get off Twitter.

The light's green now. Correct. It's the, ah. And in that, I'm hearing that as like, beep, beep, beep, beep. So I'm like, okay, obviously this guy's upset at something. He wants to talk about it. So I hit the brakes, roll my window down.

And I wait right there next to him. How do you wait? Where are you? I'm right next to him. It's like a two-lane road. So he's going. Are you going to stop? Oh, you're moving.

We're driving. And I roll the window down. You are so dumb. And I put my arm out like, what's up? Like, you want to tell me something. Obviously, you're honking at me. What kind of car is he driving? A pickup truck?

You're out of your mind. Yeah, you're putting your life and your family is in danger. No, so guys, he looks at me and he's like, you! And then he sees my whole family. And then goes, voo, speeds off. I'm like, that's what I thought. And then I looked at him like, that's what I thought. Keep on driving, you punk.

And I'm thinking that it's all, I think it's beneficial to me that I have kids because he looks to me like, oh, I don't mess with this guy. He's got kids in a family. It is till he kills you all. Right. Or beats you up in front of your kids. Yeah. Which might be even worse.

You cause an accident trying to get up next to this guy. Or also, you're teaching your kids that it's okay to do this. And when they start driving, they're going to be like, are they scared at the guy over there? They were terrified. They were like, Dad, what are you doing? I'm like, look, kids. Are you showing off a little bit? No, I, you know, with everything I do, there's a lesson involved.

So I say, kids, look, look, he was mad at me. He obviously wanted to tell me something. So what am I? I'm all ears. I lowered the window down to see what he had to say. He said nothing. Dad wins. Goodbye.

Okay, they're going to be in therapy. I can't believe you through your arm out the window. Like, let's go. I mean, he wanted to fight bones until he saw my family. He's like, all right. I'll just keep driving. Okay, if you didn't have your family with you? He'd probably want to fight me.

He'd probably want to fight me. And then I'd be really scared. Would you have stopped if you didn't have your family? No, no, no, no, no. I think that's what I'm saying. I think it helps that I have the family. I would recommend against doing that. Okay.

Because you don't know when someone's going to have a shotgun. You say that, Bavones. When you're in the moment, you're like in the moment. And you're like, I fill up with blood. I feel it in my body where I'm just like, this guy wants to talk. Let's talk. I think of every guy on this show, you would get beat up by everyone. Let's do it.

No, I think. But you got to put me in that situation. No, but I'm saying if it were to come to a fight, I think your last place of all of us. I get it, but I don't know if there's something about my face that people get scared when they see it. And I feel like if I'm in that situation, bones, I'm a fight guy, not a flight guy. But you're not a fight guy. You're also such a nice guy and you're never confrontational.

I agree. Until someone honks at me that way. Honks at you, that's what it takes? It was the whole honk that, er! Again, when I'm driving bones and someone tries to cut me off, what I do, I just speed up and I look at the I'm like, do you want to tell me something? Because it sounds, it looks like from your actions when you're driving, you want to tell me something. Yeah, they're going to speak with a weapon soon.

That's what I hit the break them back off. Let it go. Just let it go. It's time for the good news. With Bobby. Tell me something good. A U.S. Coast Guard crew was patrolling between the shore and North Carolina's outer banks. When they heard a call over the radio that some boaters had lost their dog, the dog's name's Mila.

Moments later, lookouts on the. The Coast Guard boat spotted the dog swimming and toward their vessel. I mean, in all that water, though, to see a little doghead? Yeah. That's tough. And you see the dog and the crew made their way towards the dog, and they're able to get down, get a little net, put her in it, grab her, and pull her up. And so they inspected the dog, no injuries.

The dog obviously was exhausted. And so got great treatment by the people and then gave them back to the owners. Myla, it turns out, it's a pretty lucky pup because where she was picked up is, again, no small body of water, 100 miles long, 25 miles long in places. It's not clear how long she was lost at sea, but the Coast Guard went to say,

Myla, good girl, an amazing doggy swimmer. But they found the dog, which, let me tell you a little story about my dogs the other day. I go out. I hear Stanley, who had been a little sick at his stomach, and he will bark at one in the morning if he's got to go to the bathroom. He knows not to, too,

but if he's going to go to the bathroom, he will just go, and so I hear him and I wake up immediately okay because I don't want to hear the dog vomiting or pooping on a carpet so I'm like okay

so I get up and walk out let him out the door and then Eller who stays in a different room at night runs out the door behind him they both go to the bathroom one in the morning and there are some animal in the yard

don't know what it is because it was dark and all I hear is it was like the Tasmanian devil's level but I could hear it and I don't know what happened dogs started barking, and then all of a sudden

they just came walking in a little sweaty. Both dogs. I have no idea. I have no idea what happened out there. Hey, they took care of the problem. Hey, maybe. So here's,

here are my things. It could be a fox, which it would have been tough for them to catch. Yeah. Eller probably could have caught the fox. Could have been a fox. Could have been like a raccoon,

possibly. Or it could have been the ghost dog. Oh, the white ghost dog. We haven't heard about the ghost dog in a while. So that was, and then I could go back to sleep

because something was up. And then Eller was being weird all night. So I think the ghost dog spirits inside of her now. Oh, great. You heard it here first. Congrats. Awesome job by the Coast Guard to find the dog. That saved these people, a lot of pain. That is what it's all about.

How are you, buddy? I'm good, man.

How are you? It's good to see you. You know, there's a lot of your music plays at my house right now. Joe has so many hits. Hey, I even have hits that people didn't realize I've had people come up to me

after the show and go, why didn't you play the baby? The baby, or any other Blake's, or some beach, I get that one all the time too. So people think they're your hits. Right. They're like, I don't sing that.

Come to the next show, maybe I'll do it then. But like when you look back at, for example, Broken Heartsville. 2002. Man, I've had a lot of story in between 2002 and here, and a lot of it I wouldn't like to get into. But no, it's been a crazy fast, you know. I saw a tweet from somebody one time that said,

I have more comebacks than the McRibb. Well, that's Greg can't even mad at that. That's good. So back in 2003, I was just kind of looking at this time period for a minute. You were playing the Grand Ole Opry in a green bra. was tossed onto the stage, and supposedly it was the first time that the underground

had ever been thrown on the Opry stage. And so at what point did you realize the bra was mine? Do you remember that moment, though? I do remember that moment, yeah. She got her braw back. She was, I think, a college student

here somewhere in town at Vanderbilt, I think. And I remember it being so cool and then realizing, oh, no, I'm in trouble. This is the Opry, and I'm going to go for that behavior here. But some of the old-timers thought it was pretty neat, too. one of those records that you're like

well I did that you know we got number ones and stuff like that but hey this guy got a brathone at him on the Opry you're a Grammy nominated artist too I know as you joke about people confusing you with Blake

like sometimes people don't realize you were nominated for the impossible right yeah the impossible I can name the ones I lost to and I'm very proud I lost to Johnny Cash Willie Nelson

the Dixie Chicks and maybe Vince Gill How did you lose all four of them? Well, they were two separate years. It wasn't all it was, but it was Johnny Cash's last album, and he won an album of the year. And I think Baby Vince got vocal of the year, male vocal of the year.

Next year, I think, Willie Nelson's had a duet song that he won a song with or male vocal performance, and the Dixie Chicks won, I think, album in the year again. Dang. Yeah, man. 0 for 4. 0 for 4.

But do you feel like 4 for 4 in being Grammy nominated it because that's pretty cool too. Like where do you sit on that? Positive or like, dang, so close? Not to sound cliche, but I was shocked that I was even there. I was really shocked that they put my face on camera when they were calling the nominees out. I know it looked like an idiot up there amongst, you know,

Yoko Ona was sitting over here, Queen Latifah was sitting over here. And I'm like, I don't think y'all got the right guy. It was just kind of my face. And they were like, and for our album, they put the camera on my face, and I'm just looking at the camera like, this is uncomfortable.

What do I do if I win? I walk up on the stage. I probably trip somewhere, you know, probably can't spit words out of my face to save my life. I don't know. Probably glad I didn't win, really. Joe Nichols is here. You're not glad you didn't win.

I'm not glad I didn't win. I'm not glad I didn't win. No, I got a certificate, though. You do get a certificate for being an nominated artist. And I framed it. Yeah, I wanted to too. And had it melted into this gold-looking Grammy. So it looks like I won a Grammy.

No, I got a certificate. Before you recorded, yeah, was that, did someone go, hey, Joe, this is a huge hit? Like, what was that for? process when you got that song? When I got that song, I hadn't signed a deal yet. And so I was still talking in some early stages with a couple of labels, but I really needed that song to walk in an office with and say, here's our beginning of the album. And Mike Owens, I used to work with the Universal South, found this song.

He said, man, this feels like a hit. He said, it's a little, it's kind of current. And I was like, well, I kind of think we need to be current right now, you know? And he gave me this song. They're like, man, if we can pull that off where it feels big, that's going to be played on the radio a lot. Hey, what's home, what's home like for you right now? Are you on a farm? You have a bunch of land.

No, I live on a golf course. Oh, come on. I've never in my wildest dreams would ever believe I'd live on a golf course, but it was the nicest place we could find. We could afford. That's pretty good. Yeah. Did people ever hit a ball and go, that's where Joe Nichols lives. Hit it, hit a ball.

I live far enough away that it would be really bad, and I'd think somebody did it on purpose. Yeah. Every now and then, man, I guess. in the golf cart and I have my own golf cart now which is cool. It's kind of more important than my truck now. But it does have red velvet seating so. But you just said no and then went fancier. He's went no no not at all

but it is gold-played out. It does have rims and it's four by four. I'm pumped that you're kind of back and you're here in the studio. He's got a new song out. We'll play some more over now. This is Home Run. What's the worst anyone's ever mispronounced your name on a big stage? I pulled up one of my first shows. I did a

radio show at a mall in Washington, D.C. And it said, today only, Jose Nicolas. And I was like, I don't know what's happening. Is this always happened like this? My first radio tour thing. And it was humbling, too, because you played in the mall as people were shopping. You know, kind of felt like, oh, we're the piano music in the lounge right now.

Let me play my new single. Wait, before you go in there. Stop and listen. Awkward stuff. Tequila came out, you know, a tequila mix or clothes. Did people just throw their clothes at you when you're performing? Like, was that common?

Yeah, used to. I think probably now it's been around a little while, but when the song was, you know, really hot, getting played a lot, I think people got loose with their clothes. Man, I had one that kind of ruined me. This lady threw some panties on stage one time, and they were so big. I felt like there's nothing, there's no way you can respond to this

because you can't laugh, like, somebody because he could hurt their feelings but then I don't know that that kind of ruined me on that so please keep your clothes on because I never know how to take that uh well listen can you do a little bit of tequila yeah before we go we can play yeah tune up over here by the way shout out your player over here yeah fantastic this is brian spradlin he's been with me a long long time we actually did a lot of that radio stuff together back in 2002 and three and and actually goes back before that we played here in Nashville at rippies on there in fifth and broadway What was that like for you back in the day? Did people come in and go, wow, you're so good. You should get out off of Fifth and Broadway and be a real star. And you're like, man, I'm trying, but it was just hard to get discovered. Yeah, absolutely. That's exactly how it went. We did good with tips. And there would be a lot of people that come in drunk and say,

come see me this week. And you get in their office. And they go, I don't remember seeing you. I got some good experience out of those years. I had some great, great times that I remember. How did you get discovered? Like, what was the moment? I went in and played for Tony Brown, who was at MCA. He's like, I want you to go over to my friend's office and play for him. His name's Tim Dubois. And those guys formed a record label, and I was familiar with those guys' history. And that was my first single. And speaking of, The Impossible had climbed into, like, the top 30 or top 40.

He was on the radio doing really well. And I was still playing on Broadway because that was the only place I could make money. So you had a song that was on the radio and you were still playing at the bars? 630 to 930, still in the bar. Were you doing covers like crazy? Yeah. Oh, yeah. That's all you can do with one hit.

Every 30 minutes he plays a hit again, though. New crowds come in, new crowds out. I'm the guy from the radio. I'm not even playing a cover. You have to tell them that. This is my song. You probably heard it seven times a day. Joe Nichols, everybody.

Thank you. Checking the voicemail lines. Here's one we got last night. I know Amy has been talking about her birds, how much she loves feeding her birds, and I love her bird feeders. I was curious. I have bird feeders outside,

and I get the, they're like, I don't know what kinds they are. They're big black birds, and they kind of bully the other birds, and they're very annoying and very loud. And she always has a pretty spurt. Can she give us any advice on what she's providing to the birds to get the red and the blue and, you know, all of the nice small birds? That's my question.

Thank you. Bye. Can you stop bird bullying, basically? I do have a nice variety of wild birds. And I will say I went and found wild bird seed that attracts birds native to where you live. So I would recommend maybe going to a local pet store or something and trying to find that or Googling online a feed mix. that will attract those types of birds. We've got to do all, yeah.

I've also heard you can put out grape jelly. Really? Yeah, I'm trying to do that. I'd be afraid of what all would come, though, for that grape jelly. All right, here is Jackson from New York. He's 11 years old. Hey, Bobby, morning studio. I also say I'm a really big fan of your work and what you do.

I'm 11 years old. I've been watching your show. I mean, listen to your show for now. Six years since it was five. But quick question. So, Ramundo, where did the, yeah? Confir him from Ramundo. Okay, thanks a lot.

Yeah. I got a mature question there. The guy's like, hey, man, big fan. Listen, me for five years. Here's what I know. Wow. Ramundo, you want to answer it? Yeah, I think growing up with sports, I used to always say that when we would win.

Yeah! And then I one time said it on the radio, and it took. So, there you go. Yeah. Here's Amy's pile of stories. So I read this list of, like, summer scam. we need to be on the lookout for, and one of them was called

the abduction phone call scam. And so basically, Bobby, it would be that someone would call you saying, I've been abducted. We got Amy. And they would gather details from all my social media so that it's like they know all these different things about me trying to get you to send money to set me free.

So I'll fall for it. But it's like a real thing. Hey, I will know. This, and it really happens now. And I'm like, not going to do it. You only want $100, but I don't believe it. And maybe's tied up with their hands bound to some bathroom. Then we need a code word.

We need to come up with the code word now. Petri dish. Well, don't do it on the radio, guys. Then they're listening, and they'll know the code word. Isn't that crazy that this is even a scam we need to look out for? Colostomy bag. Yeah. Okay.

Okay, I have the best duos in country music history. And this is according to... George and Tammy. Wide open country. Were they a duo? No. Who? George and Tammy, why not?

They put out records together. I didn't know they were classified as a duo. Well, let's just say they're all... They're relatively new-ish. Oh, new-ish. Okay. Well, is Brooks and done on there? If not, burn the list.

Well, let's see. Let's go through the list. We're seeing right now. And at number five, Sugar Land. Oh, yeah. Please send money. I'm so broke that it ain't funny. No, I get it, but you said they were like today.

I mean, they come back together. Okay, more recent than George and Tammy. If they're going to be on that. Maybe they are. Okay, number four. I'm getting angry. Brothers Osborne. Hey.

What you're doing right now. Go ahead. Number three, Dan and Shea. Well, when I taste to care. It should have been Brooks and Dunn at one, Dan and Shea at two. Nothing else count. Oh, she's not going backwards? I'm in at number two.

She's a three, though. I thought it was at three. Now I'm going to say number two. Go ahead. Florida, Georgia Line. I put Dan and Shea over Florida, Georgia Line. I still stand by it. Go ahead.

And then in at number one, Brooks and Dunn. I saw the light I've been baptized by the fellas ain't put out new music 10 years And here they are still number one And bang it they deserve to be I have a major snub

Bobby Bones and the Raging Idiots To be fair People think the Raging Idiots are More than just Eddie and I That's what it is Here's the story I was opening For us

As the band We're just the Raging Idiots It was the full band They were like Bolly Bones and the Raging Idiots So then people just started calling us that And so Eddie's basically all the raging idiots. I'm the raging idiots.

Bobby Bones and the raging idiots, just Eddie and I. So what do we land at? Number six? 100. You were just snubbed. But I threw you in as an honorable mention. You're welcome. All right.

Is that it? No. I have the most. No, as a matter of fact. Do you want me to be done? No. Go ahead. Okay, I have the most.

It's Monday. Give me a break. My brain's not working yet. This will be quick. I have the most productive time of the day for everyone. So take note. it's 4 a.m. to 5 a.m. Experts say the main reason for the productivity during this time is no one else is around.

Yes, and you haven't really used any of your energy yet. You're on a full tank. And there's no like temptations like phone calls or text messages coming in because everybody else is asleep. So if you have a lot to get done, wake up early. Not all the time, but maybe just every once in a while. As someone who wakes up that early, don't do it. It's miserable. But you have to.

They're just saying. No, but I'm telling you. Well, who wants to? Yeah. I don't know. Me, raising their hand quickly, who wants to get up in a miserable time? No one. Anything else? I was just sharing the study that was done.

No, I am done. I'm Amy, that's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With Amy. Tell me something good. Well, I might have to go to Maryland soon because there's a farm there offering cow cuddling sessions. And you can take a group of eight people.

Why do you got to go to Maryland? There's a ton of farms around here. Just go get your cuddle on. Did they offer little... Who cares they offer? It's a big film. Yeah, just jump the fence. By the time they get to, you can run out.

Do they have a trio of calves named Snapcrackle Impop? Okay. You got me there, though. You could call them whatever you want, though. They're called the Krispy Crew, and they will cuddle with you. So they have, like, a hotel? What is it now? It's a farm, and you can go to the farm.

When they put up this farm, it's called Mary's Land Farm. And once they put it up on their website, they sold out the first two months already. So we're going to have to plan ahead. Have these people never seen cows that file these tickets? Listen, they will cuddle with you. run with you, jump with you, lay on your lap. And when you spend time doing this with these cute little calves, your stress will be reduced. Oxy-tosin will be boosted, which is the love hormone, and you're just going to feel better.

And now I want to go. They must be super small, and that you probably can't find out in the field. You ever try to hold a calf or even touch one? They're fast. They don't want you touching them. But snap, crackle pop, they've been, they're used to it. They're trained. That's why this is kind of cool.

Yeah. Huh. Because if she goes a little pasture down the road, she's not catching a calf. If you do, though, Amy, put it on TikTok. We want to see you chase a calf. That's cool. Animals do really help so much with stress. Yeah, no, I mean, it's amazing.

My cat is very helpful to me. You still lick it? No, I only licked her once. I wanted to see what it was like to experience. She licks me. I licked her. I know it sounds worse than it was. No, it doesn't.

It was one lick. And that was that. But it was bonding. That's real. weird. It's bonding. You lick the cat. Have you ever just wanted to bond?

Yeah, a hug. I scratch on the head. He'll put it. He'll, you know, he'll rest in my lap or elder way on my feet. But then somebody, I don't know, is Eddie? Someone here on the show gave me like a tool that mimics licking. Yeah, so you don't have to stick your tongue on the cat. Right.

Like, I put the thing in my mouth and it's act. You don't really use it, do you? It's the act of licking, so we still have the bonding, but I don't have to lick. You would think the cat's like, why is she licking me? She's a human. No, we're closer now. Okay. Okay.

Well, that's a great story that you have, that people can go to this place called Mary's Land Farm. And help with their stress. Yes. Okay. You have to go to their website. There you go. That's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good.

the funniest morning corny ever. Knock-knock. Who's there? Dwayne. Dwayne, who? Dwayne, the bathtub. I'm drowning. Dwayne the bathtub. I'm drowning. Goodbye. Oh, Dwayne.

Dwayne. Guys, I didn't get that at first. I know. And you like baths, so you should tell that one next time you get a bath. And did she even know he was there at first? That's her sidekick. Okay, here's two kids from Colorado. Here's another one.

I love the show very, very, very much. We have a morning corny. And the morning corny goes like that. Why is Superman on the toilet? Because it was his duty. Bye, thank you. Thank you. That one I got.

Yeah, easy. A little more straightforward. A little more down the line for me. Let's go over to Amy and get in The Morning Corny. The Morning Corny. What did the mother rope tell her kids? What did the mother rope tell her kids? Don't be naughty.

Funny. That was the Morning Corny. With a K. K and OTT. We got it. So BuzzFeed did a poll saying, hey, are these celebrities cool or not cool. You basically had to pick one of the other. There's no middle ground. They're cool

or they're not cool. Okay. For example, Betty White. Cool. 93% cool. She was the coolest. Tom Hanks. Cool. 91% cool. Now, those were the two that were the highest cool. Okay. And I'm not going to tell you what the rest are. You just give me your opinion. You're not guessing. You just give me your opinion. All right. I'm just going to go with right out of the gate because I'm going to want to call them all cool because I feel bad, but go ahead.

Jeff Bezos. Cool? 89% uncool. Oh, really? I don't know if he's not cool. I think he's not cool. I think he's. him for Amazon. Yeah, I don't know why people are mad at him unless they're just mad because he's a billionaire. Yeah. Right?

I mean, he doesn't really do anything to make his mad. I mean, I don't know much about him. So why would he be cool? He seems just like a nerdy CEO. No, no, because I order something and sometimes it arrives at my doorstep that day. I would have clicked cool on Jeff Beazzo. You would? Because I don't know anything about him, but he did create something that I use every day.

Exactly. And that's cool, I guess. And I'm blown away by sometimes. Okay. Adele. Cool? 90% cool. Dr. Phil.

Not cool. 87% on. Cool. I mean, especially because Scuba Steve worked for him and said, well, scuba, how many times did you actually interact with Dr. Phil? I mean,

I was pretty low in the totem pole, so I mean, one, maybe two times. But would you see him interact with other people? Yes, yeah. And he wasn't the softest,

warmest fella? I mean, he's there to do a job and get it done and go home. I mean, he's very much to the point. Let's get it going. I have respect for that. Did you ever see him melt down?

No, never saw him meltdown. Oh, that would be crazy. You ever see him yelling anybody? No, I've seen him not like somebody's work or choice of words. And then what does he do then? He just kind of is just very stern, just like, okay, well, let's move on. Or I want this, or I need that.

He's not the most like warm guy. He's not the most like warm sun. You're not going to go there and have a great super time. You're there to do your job and go home. And what was your job with Dr. Phil? I was a runner and then a PA and then I was working to an AP, which is basically an associate producer. Did you ever get a picture with Dr. Phil? No.

I'm not the kind of person that takes pictures with. With people. Maybe like Christmas party. You're over at Philly's house. I know. I've been to his house. It's very nice. Would you have voted cool or uncool in Dr. Phil? I would say he's pretty cool.

You would? I would vote cool, yeah. Well, hold on. What'd you go to his house for? Just a drop off a check. How much? I didn't look at it. I followed the rules.

Did he answer the door? Was he in a towel? Did he invite you in? That sounds like to start to something else. All right. It's good with Steve. Thank you. You're welcome.

The Rock. Cool. Yeah, 89% cool. Lady Gaga. Uh, cool. 88% cool. Justin Timberlake. Cool.

64% uncool. What? Yeah, he's not cool. Oh, wow. I disagree. I mean, I don't know him. I'll give you a few more. Adam Levine from The Voice.

Cool. We're in 5. Uncool, 64%. Okay. Mel Gibson. Not cool. Not cool. They just exed over that one.

Okay, that's the deal. That's a little fun game there. What about Eddie? Cool. Nice. You, Bones? Cool. Oh.

What do you think about it? Why would you say Cole like that when he's talking about me? I thought he said, because I started to wonder if he was asking me about you. If you listened to the show last week, your lunchbox got a ticket, he got a parking ticket.

He ran in to get some food for like five minutes. He comes out. There's a ticket on his car. He's like, I ain't paying this. Turns out it wasn't the cops that gave it to you. It wasn't the city. It was a private parking company. Correct.

And so I then felt like you had a nice argument there. What are they going to do? I can't put you in jail. Can't do anything. So what happened? So I went ahead to email them just to be nice, just to check on it. And I was like, hey, and I emailed them from my lunchbox email. What does that mean your lunchbox email?

So it comes from, you know, our company. And it's so it says lunchbox at our company. They saw it. What do you just say? I heart. You know our company. Or Bobby Barnes. I mean, people are going to figure it out.

Are you scared your email? I'm going to blow up. No one knows what you work for. If I say our company, they'll be confused. Yeah, they're not that smart. Okay, so you send them an email for your lunchbox email account. Yeah, so I didn't even have to drop the lunchbox name. They just see it in the email and they replied right away.

Oh, don't worry. You don't have to pay it. We waived it. Oh, wow. Smart. That's it. Do you think they waive anyone that emails them? No.

Or do you don't? No. Well, it's like asking for a refund on your pizza delivery because something went wrong. Well, if you call them, they're probably just going to be like, yeah, you know what? You're right. We'll give you something. Yeah, make it right. Oh, I don't know.

I don't know. I just felt like I was like, hey, man, I was just getting food for, five minutes, you know what I mean? And I got to go to work early in the morning just trying to get this taken care of. Early in the morning. Yeah, maybe he got a nice person that was checking their emails that day and was like, oh, he was just picking up food. Like, no big deal, we'll waive it.

I don't know. He calls them and was like, I don't want to be your bonehead of the day. Right. But how cool that they waived it all because I threw that name out there. That's what you do. You drop your name. You get things taken care of. Or that you just email and you were nice.

That could be it too, but I like to think it's my name, status. Also, you said I was just doing it to be nice. I don't think that was the case. I don't think you emailed them just to be nice. Well, I was just trying to fish like saying, hey, man, I was just there for five minutes. You know, it's a bad look on you guys and they were like, how wave it. Okay, well, there you go. He now doesn't have to pay his parking.

Woo! Yeah. How many hours of sleep do you think you get normally? I try to get eight. You do? Mm-hmm. That's what I try, but I don't think I get it. You still know?

A toss and turn a little bit here and there. I wake up in the middle of the night, but I try to get you. I try to go to bed and set my alarm for eight hours later. So perfectly happy people get seven hours and ten minutes of sleep. Oh, okay. And really no more than eight hours. Listen, I need about ten. Honestly.

Yeah, everyone's different. You might. And people laugh when I say that. But for me to actually feel right, I need to get ten hours of sleep. I never get it. And my dog wakes me up three nights a week barking. And I still have so much like anxiety in me from my house getting broken into and getting robbed. and it still freaks me out when he barks because I'm like,

all right, who does he see? So I get up, I walk all around the premises of the house. I pet him. And I'm like, don't do that. But now I'll move his bed behind the table so he can't see. Because he just sees outside. If there's a leaf, he's like, oh, it's scared. Then I can't go to sleep for two hours.

You need to get him a sleep mask. Oh, I need to get him a sleep number, bed. So he covers his eyes. But that's usually what it is. Eddie, what do you get a night? I would say about seven. I mean, I try so hard to get more than that, but I can't. Lunchbox?

I would say between five and a half and six at the most. Why are you getting such little sleep? Because I put the kids to bed and then I want to watch TV. I want to enjoy my night. So I'll sit there and watch TV. And next thing you know, it's 11 o'clock at night. Hey, got to go to bed. Get up early.

Four o'clock. Comes pretty quick. Are you okay with less sleep? Like, do you feel good with that amount of sleep? Yeah, I feel like I've gotten used to that. That's how I've kind of trained my body. And that's why I need a nap every day because I stay up so late. and then I get a two hour, two and a half hour nap in the middle of the day. Boom, I feel good.

That makes sense with the nap. Listen, there are weeks where I'm getting three or four hours, but I never get used to it. I hate it. But if you get any less than six hours and 45 minutes, they say you are affected physically and mentally. You may be a danger to be around. It also messes up your entire day. What? A danger to be around. You drive your car into me? No. I saw a fun fact that Chernobyl, the Challenger, and the Xeneges, Exxon oil spill all boiled down to some lack of sleep.

Really? What are you reading? Wow. Why don't you click that link? I wouldn't see that. I wouldn't even stop. It messes up your entire day if you stay in your bed, 14 minutes past your alarm.

That's the cutoff for when you start to get really behind and have to always chase catching up with the day. Yeah, you want to chase the day. You don't want the, what is it? You don't want to chase the day, you? Is that saying? What are you reading? You've had some weird sayings lately.

She's got some weird calendar that's giving her facts and also the oddest inspirational quotes. Well, whatever. I listen, don't get rid of that snooze button. That's my advice if you want to feel rested. You're still not snoozing? Yeah, I'm still not snoozing. That is crazy. It's longer, maybe.

I mean, high five to myself. Because that was hard work. I used to snooze all the time and I was proud of it. I was a proud snoozer. I look down on people that didn't snooze. But now I'm, I'm reformed. I like to high five yourself because that's my patented move. Cool. That's the only one I really take a true high five from is me.

Yeah, I'm proud of myself. Yeah. Well, the only person that really cares about you is you. Yeah. You know, ultimately. Well, no, we care about you. Yeah, but mostly. Like, I rode my Peloton the other day, and it hit a number that I hit in a long time because I got a busted up calf. And I finished, and I went, high five to myself.

That's right. Last week, lunchbox called a psychic. And the bid idea was for him to call, get a reading, and then call back and get a refund. Like that was the initial segment that Mike D thought ever. We thought ha ha ha. But during the call we were thrown off because the psychic told lunchbox that he was going to die in 2023. Here's a clip of that. I do kind of know how much time you have left.

Like on the phone call? No, like, you know, how much time you have left. Oh, like how much time do I have left? I would say don't make any plans for 2023 and spend lots of time with your wife and kids. And don't play the lottery. So that pretty much was her saying you're not going to be around long. So Lunchbox, you decided to call for a second opinion. Yes, because I'm like, okay, this lady's just kooky.

Like she has no idea what she's talking about. So I'm going to call a different psychic, and I'm just going to talk to them and see what they say. And maybe this other lady wasn't reading the tree leaves right or whatever she does to look into my mind. The tree leaves? Whatever. But she told me I was going to die, so I've been freaked out. So I called a different psychic. Okay, so we have two parts here.

They're both about a minute. Here is the first part. So this lady Ariam, I want to say thank you for stepping into this. And how are you feeling today? I'm feeling great, you know, feeling good. Great day to be alive. You know what I mean? Got a smile on my face and I'm looking good.

Question for you. Do you want me to call you by your first name that starts with a letter D or are we going to go with this whole charade to call us a lunchbox? No, we can stick with lunchbox. That's what my friends call me. You know, that's what the people, you know, that's what the crew calls me. So we'll go with lunchbox. Okay.

Okay. Oh, man, I'm picking up something. This is pretty funny what I'm saying here. Can you grab your hands together for me? Okay, I'm rubbing them. Okay, just as I thought, sticky fingers. Your roommate, Jesus, from the dorms, you know, that you took the cash from from his dresser? Well, he wants you to let you know that he doesn't hold it against you from the past, and he forgives you.

Like what? No, no, hold on. Like, the guy that was like my roommate in the dorms, you talk to him? How do you know him? I told you, I feel things through vibration. And you rubbing your hands together, I felt that. And what I'm feeling is that he knew and he didn't say anything. In fact, come to find out, he actually saw you doing it.

College was a while ago, so shake it off. I need you to stay calm, okay? Especially what I'm about to tell you next. Okay. Okay. So is that true? I don't know that story. Did you steal money from a roommate?

I mean, 17 bucks sitting on the counter. How did you know that? I don't know. That's what I'm saying. I'm like, come on. Like, that's when she said, Jesus. She said his name. Like, when you say his name, I'm like, okay, what's going on here?

And so I thought, okay, she called Hayes. I don't even know where Jesus is. But how would she have talked to Jesus? We didn't even know this. No. And that's why I'm just like, okay, this is not cool. And I said, how did you know that? And she told me the vibration.

Okay. I don't know, whatever. We have one more clip. It's about a minute. This is Lunchbox talking to a second psychic. Go ahead. You know, a lot of people say this, and I think sometimes people miss it. But, you know, what's more precious than money is time?

So I wouldn't so much focus on the tangible money aspect. And focus more on the value of time. I'm seeing time, a clock. A lot of clocks are ticking around. So pay attention to that. Like I'm getting a new watch? Not so much. Look, I don't want to, I mean, how about this?

Let's just say focus on the now. That's why we're saying time. Time is now. I want you to live in the moment and enjoy life. Don't stress too much about winning the lottery. I know you want the level. Don't worry about that. You have your wife and your kids and focus on what you have now while you can.

Okay? And that's all I have. Steve, only pay for a quick reading, okay? No, no, no. But, like, what about my future? Like, what happens, like, let's say, two, three years down the road? Like, where am I going to be? I appreciate you being open.

And I hope you've enjoyed your experience. today. No, no. That's what I got with Lady R.E. So what did you take from that? I took that two psychics tell me I'm going to die. I called her to get a second opinion because I wanted her to tell me something different. I want her to tell me, oh, yeah, four years, five years down the road, you're going to be doing great.

And she did none of that. So what do you feel, like really, all radio bit aside, what do you feel is happening here? Oh, man, I don't know. I'm stressed out. I'll tell you that. Like, I'm like, how can, do they, can they really tell things? Like, how did two psychics tell me about the same thing? Like, I mean, she didn't see I was specifically going to die,

but she said the clock is ticking. Spend time with your family where the other lady just straight up said, don't plan anything past 20, 23. Do you believe that you're going to die? I do now. No, you don't. Okay. No, tick, tick.

It's over. Bye bye. Well, here's what I'll say. Is it about three weeks or so ago, Scuba and Mike had an idea to get some fake psychics until lunchbox he was going to die. Oh, wow, wow, wow. Okay, that's good.

What? What? Wait, you guys got fake psychics to tell me I was going to die. So both those women are not real psychics. I don't know who they were, but all I know is, I just told them this is their idea. They said, hey, what if we get a psychic?

Okay, now some things are making sense. Because I was like, I'm really having a hard time getting into this. I was starting to get sad. I feel like these people are, like, not real. But then lunchbox was believing them. So I didn't know. I was like, is lunchbox in on this? I had no idea of it.

Now it makes sense. So Scuba Steve and Mike Dee were pranking lunchbox. Yes. And scuba, how did you find these people? Oh, I have some hippie friends back in L.A. and I just reached out to them and they were able to play the part. Wow.

I talked to his wife to get more information for the second one. You called Lunchbox's wife? Yes, I went and called her I got her fun of my wife and got some information from her to kind of get a little more insider

to kind of really pick out of them. Dang, you told your wife you stole from your college roommate. I mean, we probably talked about roommates, you know, like in the past, like who we lived with

and stupid things that have happened. I mean, oh my gosh. Well, What would you like to say to these two? Man, you guys are punks. And, I mean, that was good. Well done. Well done, boys.

All right. Nice job, you too. We'll be back in a second. He's going to live. He's alive. Yay. All right, let's go talk to Catherine in Quebec. Hey, Catherine, tell me what happened with your friend.

Well, my friend was on a Tinder date, and, well, the guy came over, and they had a good time. And they're just talking, and he's like. like, well, I have to go to the bathroom. So she shows him the bathroom and whatever. He comes back, but when he was in the bathroom, he opened the window halfway, like for later on. So he goes back in, and she's asleep at night. He's gone.

Well, he opened the window, and he went into her house to go steal stuff, and she had to call the cops, and he got arrested. Oh, my goodness. But what he's supposed to do? It looks like a nice guy on Tinder. Right. Who's thinking he's going to open your window and come rob you? No one.

Man, so if you have a stranger from Tinder over to your house, once they leave, do a check. Go look at all the windows and doors. Or maybe you don't have to them at your house right away. I don't know. I don't know. How does Tinder work? But I'm sure the guy's charming. Yeah, I'm sure.

Kind of look like an early Brad Pitt probably. That's what you're imagining. I was watching these news stories about Chandler from friends, Matthew Perry. how they would get on that dating app, and then people wouldn't believe it's them, so they would send them videos. They'd be like, hey, it's really me. Why'd you? We talked about it on the show, but they're both doing it and more celebrities have been doing it. That's funny. It's funny, but it's kind of weird for people to call them out.

Yeah, it is. They shouldn't be doing that, because I thought that that's a special site where people are cool. It's supposed to be, yes. Like, it's not cool for these Instagram people to be like, look at this video on God of Matthew Perry. But it's the risk you take. Yeah. If you're a public figure and you're sending someone a video, That is the risk you take.

Not cool, but not illegal. But also, I just feel bad for these guys. Like, they're on these apps having to go, come on. We think they can just walk down the street and go, I'll have one of those, two of those. Can't they? Because I still think that. I don't know.

I don't know. But those stories are weird. I hope this guy that the caller called about, did she go back and do we leave like a bad Tinder review? Can you leave? Catherine, how did that work out at the end? Did she ever see him again? Did she leave him a bad review?

No, she never saw him again. but like she's freaked out like she deleted the app and she's like, I'll meet someone one day, but like this is not how. Yeah. I'd be scared because he always knows where she lives and that he had to go to jail because of her. You know, when I was robbed, I've been physically like jumped a couple of times and robbed. But my house was robbed and we knew who it was. And I was like, okay, officer, I don't want to put them in jail because I know they knew who I am.

It's a whole thing. He goes that almost never happens. He's like they almost never go back for retaliation. It's not the mob. Really? Yeah, because if they do it, they're going to get caught again. And the last thing they want to do is get caught again. I had the same feeling.

But I was like, Sarge, so what happens if I testify and they go to jail, they're going to come get me afterward? He's like, almost never happens. Okay. That's where my brain always goes, that they're going to retaliate. Thank you, Catherine, for the call. Really appreciate you listening. Thank you. Thank you, guys, for the nice show in the morning.

You guys make my day quite great. Thank you very much. You make our day great too. Yeah. How about me saying that? That's nice. The Bobby Bone Show is proud to be supported by Grand Canyon University, an affordable, private, non-profit Christian University based in beautiful Phoenix, Arizona.

They couldn't find it. Next day, the news is out there doing a story when the guy that stole the dog came walking the dog. No way. And they interview him on the news. We start asking the man a few questions, and he admits to taking the animal. He was just barking in the car.

And I walked past the car and I thought I was supposed to do dog walking. It wasn't a kidnapping. It was just a simple mistake. He thought he said dog walker. So he said, oh, I thought that dog was saying he wanted to be walked. He thought the dog was talking to him? Walk me, walk me. Why did he walk the dog near a camera?

He walked right by the crime scene. They were doing it and he just walked it and they said, hey, can we talk to it? He's like, yeah. And they asked him about the dog. And he said, oh, yeah, I took it. But the dog was barking in the car. How long from the walk to the steel? 24 hours.

Okay, so there's something. It's in his neighborhood. He probably thought the news is there for something else. You don't walk by where you stole the dog from? Listen, I don't know. That's why he's a bonehead. Okay. I'm Lunchbox.

A photographer in Indiana hired two models for a Halloween photo shoot last year. And now those two models have hit it off. Now they're engaged. Went and worked. Oh, that's cool. Number one.

Five police officers in Atlanta saved a man from a burning car while he was having a seizure. Dang, he was in a burning car and a seizure at the same time. That's like the unluckiest guy ever. What cause was first? The entire thing was recorded on their body cams. This is the police officer saving the guy. He's having a seizure. Let me get another fire extinguishing.

Get him out. Get him out. Get him out. Sorry. Man, that is intense. Could have been the car wrecked, caught on fire, and the wreck caused a seizure. Or the seizure caused the wreck. Boom, that could have been it, too.

Yeah. That one makes more sense. Wait. I mean, just a guess. Wait, why why mine doesn't work? That's what? The good news countdown. Okay, if you waited until this long in the podcast, we're going to play the entire call where

Lunchbox is called The Psychic. He thinks he's talking to a real psychic. Obviously, Scoobo Steve had Federer information, but here is the entire seven-minute call where lunchbox is being pranked. Enjoy. This is Lady R.E.M. Well, hello. Thanks for taking the time to do this. I guess you call it a look into my life.

It was sitting there. I was in college. I didn't even know he knew about that. That's weird. Uh-huh. And he called you? I told you there's a sense of a vibration. And what I felt and what I'm feeling is that he knew and he didn't say anything.
