Morning! All right, get your pins out, because this gets to no question. it's got to be instant. Write your answer down. You have five seconds to drop your pen. Okay. Just because I need the first thing that comes to your mind when I say this.

And I did this as an experiment to myself. And I don't love my answer, but it's the first thing. Ready, everybody. Ready. What's the first pop culture event or moment that comes to mind to go? What? The first pop culture event or moment of all time that comes to mind. Three?

Oh, boy. Two. One. Pins down. Even if you don't have it fully, I just need to have it. I can tell you mine. Mine was, I don't know why, but when that question was posed, I was like, Kanye Taylor Swift.

Okay. At the VMAs. That's not bad. Where Taylor's winning the award and Kanye's like, no, no, no, Beyonce, deserve this award. Then I started spiraling in lots of directions. But that to me was the very first thing that came to my mind. Don't know why. Video music awards way back in the day.

Amy. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey. That's why I got written on. Just in your mind. I just saw something on Instagram And then I pictured them Specifically there was some concert I think she was overseas and he's side stage

And he's jamming out and she changed the lyrics To say something about the chiefs or him or something And she ran off stage and hugged him Okay Eddie all time It's not good but I wrote down Janet Jackson's nipple That's big one though That's good I mean I don't know why but that's the first thing that happened

JT like pulling Hey, that is. That's a good one, though. Changed live broadcasting as we know it. Everything had to be delayed. Oh, that's what did that? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, big time. It changed everything.

Delays had to go in studios all over the world. Wow. And they planned that? Yeah. Okay. Lunchbox. Brittany Spears and the umbrella. The umbrella.

She's standing on top of the car. Oh, when her head was shaved. Head shaved. I mean, it was like, that's when I realized, I was like, uh-oh. Something's wrong with Britney. Yeah, that was wild. What's the second one that comes to mind? Okay, mine just kind of mind.

Marilyn Monroe over the air. I don't know why they came up, but you know, she's over the vent, and that blows her dress up and she holds it down. You remember that? The picture you've seen? Yeah, the video. I've seen the video. But also, I wasn't there for Taylor and Kanye. It's a movie.

It is? Yeah, it's like from a movie. Like, I think of that as a pop culture moment. Secondly, pop right popped in my head. Okay. I just pictured JLo's green dress. Good. And she's with Diddy and Diddy's Bad.

Yeah, Lunchbox. OJ Simpson trial. Trial or Bronco? Trial came to mine first? Yeah, trial. I mean, because I remember middle school, that was all the talk. Man, it was all the, every day we talk about it. Eddie? Yeah, Tom Cruise jumping on a chair. Couch, Oprah. That's kind of in my head for some reason. Fun game, fun game.

Morgan, very first pop culture moment that comes to mind, all time. Brittany Spears and Justin Timberlake can all denim. Oh, yeah, the picture. On the red carpet. Yeah, that's good. And then, or it was Chenaya Twain and her leopard outfit, those two. All right, good job, everybody. Yeah, that's weird. Just wanted to see where heads were.

That whole riding it down Changes the game Yeah because you have to commit to it Yeah Even to write something so I can look at it And go oh you just want to Change your mind Talk about this

What's the Maryland Monroe movie Some things are brighter Maybe asphalt jungle or something like I don't know But I just picture Mel Gitz And getting pulled over Saying bad things Amy's like I can't stop them

All I can do is picture moments Amy turn it off Turn it off She yelled at this Turn it off Okay glad you guys are here All right let's open up the mailbag You send an email and we read it on the air.

It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Hello, Bobby Bones over the weekend. My wife hit me with a great idea. She thinks I should have her name tattooed somewhere on my body. Then she got a little put off when I hesitated. First off, I never said no. I just said I'd think about it. She's my wife.

I love her. But even though I have a few tattoos already, I feel like it could be bad luck getting her name tattooed on me forever. then if we get divorced, I'd have to have it covered up removed. She sees my hesitation as me thinking we are not destined to be together forever. Is there any benefit to doing this? Is there any compromise signed? The hesitant husband.

Yeah, bro, first of all, don't ever talk about it if we get divorced. Yeah, there's never should be that. Yeah, no, no, that's the thing I ever heard. You may think that in your head, but you don't say that out loud. But also, if you're not thinking it, if he had no tattoos, I could easily sit here and go. So you don't want a tattoo. You're scared of tattoos. You don't like tattoos.

Done. If he has a bunch, I would say if he has over four, that's kind of the line of you got a lot. Get another. So if you're thinking of getting another, you really can't get another one then if you say no to this. Yeah. I mean, you can, but she's going to be irritated.

Yeah, when he comes home with a little, like, lion on his arm. When he gets a liberty bell on your nipple, I'm telling you. She's going to be like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. So you got two choices. Get it and you can get it covered up if something happens, like you say. Or don't, but you can't get another tattoo. Don't you have your wife's just initial, first initial?

Yeah, she drew. That's the C that she wrote. So she has a B for you and you have a C. Maybe he could compromise and just do the first letter of her name. And that way, if he wants to add to it, if they get divorced, he can turn it into like, you know. Yeah, think of other things you can do it. You have a list of words to start with that letter just in case. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

This is what I would say, like, my real life advice is if you have a bunch of tattoos, just get it. Like your seat could stand for calendar. Good point. You know you love the calendar. Or Cali. I'm saying. Right, me. If you were to get your seat.

I'm not. I'll never change it. Yeah. Okay, bro, get the tattoo. However, if you don't want to get the tattoo, you can't get another tattoo. This is just the dynamic in the relationship. I'm not even saying what she's proposing is healthy. And if she's going to hold it against you, I'm not saying that's healthy,

but I'm saying that is the situation at hand. She's not going to let it go. Yes, and she's being unhealthy, just join her. I agree. Get it on your forehead. Really show her what's up. She'll dreads you ever. She'll regret that.

All right, thank you. Close up the mail bag. We got your email and we're the clothes. Bobby's mail bag. Lunchbox is walking this morning going to ching, to ching, ching, to ching. And he said he's brought us some audio of our to ching, to ching, to ching.

I don't bring up the palate. That's something we don't talk about on the show. Lunchbox freaked out. It was an ugly day in the history of the show. It was bad. But we all invested money into what is called like a return palette. We didn't know what was in it, but it's all Amazon returns. And then we opened it here on the show.

We're trying to sell it back individually. It became such an issue. Somebody on the show freaked out and left and said a bunch of bad words. No bad words. Someone on the show. You did. You were on the F word in there. Yeah.

Oh, we have audio of it. I mean, somebody was. Everybody was. You don't remember that? You blacked out. But we don't bring it up. He's bringing it up. What do you have?

I got a document. man what it's like being a salesman of returns and when you go meet people all that so yeah hit it ray something to make another pallet sale just waiting waiting for a customer the thrill let me tell you the thrill of this is you don't know if you're about to get robbed you don't know about if they're about to show up it's just like a guessing game so let's cross our fingers this person shows up and buys that pallet on it for the business you got to be patient man got to be patient in 22 minutes 22 minutes but all for the money. You know what I mean?

You got to grind to make that money. What were you selling? Selling boat cover. Okay. And? It was listed for 60. A guy hit me. He said, would you take 50?

Yeah. I said, let me talk to the banker. Deal. And then I never heard him. Oh, yeah. And then, no, here it is. Oh, he did show up. No.

Oh, he didn't show up. What? I stood up, dude. First time. I stood out there for 39 minutes. Yeah, time to make a little documentary. You waited for 30. 30 minutes?

39. Why don't you stay for the 40? Because then I was just like he ain't coming. Oh. 39 minutes. That's terrible, man. Time is money and he was only going to get 50, but divided by all of us. It's like nothing.

Yeah. Sorry about that, man. Yeah. Oh, dude, it hurt. Like, I was like this. Did you message him? Messaged him like 12 times. He ever returned your message?

Not after the, like, he said, we set the meeting time for 5.30 p.m. And I was like, all right, I'm headed there. Like, see you then. nothing i was like all right i'm out front uh 12 minutes there i was like hey man you're still coming and then like was you reading them i say red i don't know man it's on uh what's it called on craigslist oh so you're just sending them an email because that we've been going back and forth they never responded never responded never respond and then one car pulled up and i walk up to the window oh no he's like are you erika his uber driver someone across street came out

the uber he asked you're like do i look like an erika yeah want to buy a boat cover I do have a boat car over here, man, so... Back at it, let us know when we make that money. We're not bringing it up. You got to bring it to us. I got to bring it to you. But yeah, guys, it was devastating. I was sitting there and just going, man, this sucks. This is what it feels like to get stood up on a date. You never had that happen in real life?

Of course not. Not a guy like that. It's time for the good news. With lunchbox. Five-year-old Jordan was born without a left hand, so he just had nothing. You know what I mean? Like, what am I going to do? But they said, ah, time to get this. this guy fitted for a bionic arm.

And he became the youngest person to get a bionic arm. And it looks like Iron Man. He went to Manhattan. Got the arm. And he was so excited, he hailed a taxi with it. A lot of things from this story.

One, the great part about it is this kid was born with that hand. Probably felt different. Didn't like that. Now he has something that's super cool makes him feel like he can be part of the group. Special in a good way. But just how lunchbox set that story up,

Amy and I looked at each other like, this kid was born. He probably had nothing on his arm. And he was like, what am I going to do? And he's like, what am I going to do? So I smoked cigarette and held a taxi. By me, I mean, he didn't have a hand. So Jordan was like, man, now I got a hero arm and he feels pretty cool.

Looks like Iron Man. Yeah, I like the story. We like the story. Just out of the gate a little. Yeah, the setup kind of made us laugh a little. Yeah, thank you. Just pictures like a talking baby. It's like, can you believe this, man?

I'm missing a hand. All right, thank you. That is what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. This game's going to be super fun, super easy. If you miss it, you're out. It's going to be very easy. Oh, I'm going to be out quick.

It's the most recognizable celebrity voices. Oh, okay. There are 10 of these. Everybody may go 10 for 10. Oh. So here we go. I'm going to give you an example. Just name the voice.

Now I'm not wanting to sit around doing nothing. Oh, no, dolly. It's not a speed round. We all could have listened. You know, we could let our listeners here a little bit. They guess, so I'm going to let them win. Good point. Good point.

Okay. Do not buzz in. Write it down. Most recognizable celebrity voices. Number one. I was checking out and the sack girl was sitting there. And she was going through all the stuff. And she was narrating and commenting on everything that I had bought.

Morgan Freeman. Amy? Morgan Freeman. Good. Name the celebrity voice. Go ahead. That was really scary. And if you don't mind me saying, if that don't work, your breath, certainly we get the job done.

Because you definitely need some tic tics or something because your breath stinks. I'm in. I'm in for the win. I need it again. That was really scary. And if you don't mind. I mean saying, if that don't work, your breath, certainly will get the job done because you definitely need some tic-tacks or something because your breath stinks. That's funny.

Yeah. Amy? I'm thinking of a scene. I think of him when he plays the characters. I need this celebrity voice. Tyler Perry? Incorrect. Oh.

On a recent episode of the podcast, Money and Wealth with John Hobriant, I sit down with Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money. What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth to the people when they're no longer here?

We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth, starting with the mindset shifts. Too many of us were never, ever taught. Financial education is not always about, like, I'm going to get rich. That's great. It's about creating an atmosphere for you to be able to take care of yourself and leave a strong financial legacy for your family. If you've ever felt you didn't get the memo on money,

this conversation is for you to hear more. Listen to Money and Wealth with John O'Brien from the Black Effect Network on the I'd Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

Hi everyone, I'm Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild and Tiny Beautiful Things.

I'm excited to share that I have a new podcast called Mind Over Mountain. In each episode, I interview athletes, adventurers, and adrenaline seekers to discuss the inner landscapes and life experiences that informed and inspired their extraordinary feats. I also bring a bit of advice into the mix so we too can better understand how to face our own seemingly insurmountable challenges. Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to pull out what you already have inside. We're coming into this world, fighting for our lives.

All I'm going to do is pull out what you already got inside. We're there to support and celebrate each other. And that's not like your story versus my story. You're going to walk up and over that dang mountain. You're not just going to put your mind over it. Yep, yep, exactly. And if I can't walk up and over it, I'm going to go through it. Listen to Mind Over Mountain every Thursday on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,

or wherever you get your podcast. These are phrases that can or will save relationships. Amy brought this. I think it's a very valuable segment because I don't think about stuff like this. Of course not. So these are things we should say more? Yeah, well, they're good to keep in your back pocket

if the time comes for you to use them. It's just ways to communicate with your partner that's going to be more effective than maybe what you typically say, which is like, ugh, or really, or calm down. So you're saying I don't have to mean it, but it's in case of emergency. break glass.

I think that you'll mean these things because it's like that's your partner. You care about this person, but this is just a better way to communicate. All right. Give me number one. All right. If it bothers you, it matters to me. So like something you may not understand. Like, hey, I don't get this, but if it's bothering you, it matters to me.

So I'm going to listen. We were in therapy last week and we were talking about something and I did not understand her frustration. But what I told our therapist, I said, hey, I understand that I do not understand and will not understand but I do also understand I need her to be happy and so I understand I don't get it but I want to help so now a simple way to say that is not like my way it took a long time it looks like it put a lot more work into it matters to me and then another one is so I was thinking about what happened earlier and I want to apologize that's a tough one go back later you that's a hard one that is hard I was thinking

about what I usually I just hit him with a I'm sorry oh you do that you know what I mean like immediately Mostly, I guess if it's for me, I go, let's just move on and we've learned something from this. That does not work. No way. Well, speaking of, the next one would be... I just dodge the sorry thing. And sometimes you'll say you never apologize for things. Right.

So now I find really small things. I'm like, I'm so sorry. But why? It makes it wrong punch me in the face. So like if you misplace the toilet paper, I'm so sorry. I would like you to know. I'm deeply apologetic. I'm so sorry.

Oh, man. I know, yeah. That's not good. That's messed out, dude. I apologize in different ways than just with my words. I do with my actions a lot of ways. Okay. Here's one that you definitely need.

Thank you for having patience with me. I'm still learning this stuff. That is perfect for you. Patience with me is okay. I'm still learning that stuff. That makes you feel stupid. Like a child. But you are still learning.

No, we're not. We all are, I guess. We all. Everybody is. So then why do we have to say? We're all equal. Oh, got them. Is this what it's like with you?

Yeah. But I show it. my actions. Okay. Another one. I wanted to check in and see how you're feeling about all of this. I can do that one. No problem.

What if she comes to you and said, I want to check in and see how you're feeling about all this? I don't like it. That's like, hey, do you want to talk? Or we need to talk. I don't like that. I don't like control. But I don't get it as much.

It's weird when you're in a relationship. You don't get it as much as when you're by yourself. You know that crazy? It's wild. Yeah, go ahead. What about this one? So I don't want to assume. So I thought I'd ask.

Yeah, I can do that one. That's no problem. I'm not having to apologize, so I'm good. That's proactive. Right, but a lot of times we think we're mind readers and we try to assume something and then we build some story in our head and we think it's one way and we don't just stop and ask. I think for me, I just assume that she reads my mind more than I can read her mind. I can't read anybody's mind. I can just look at past data and make an assumption based off of that more than like, I bet they're thinking this or like a pattern.

But I expect her unfairly to read my mind 95% of the time. How did you not know I was going to do that? She's like, well, because you've never been to the batting cage at 2 p.m. on a Thursday. I don't know where you were. And I'm like, that's a good point. Dang. Yeah, what else? It's okay to mess up.

Nobody is perfect. I still love you even when you're upset. Oh, I would get stabbed for saying that. You would? Look at that all together. Say that again. It's okay to mess up. I'm talking about me or her.

You're saying this to her. She doesn't mess up. Relationship-wise. Ever? Maybe I don't catch it. I'm the stunted growth one. The next line is nobody is perfect. But I would never

It feels like I'm talking down to her Totally I think if somebody told you that You would feel like I don't know that that one's my favorite What's the last part of that though? I still love you even when you're upset That's probably a separate one I could do that one by itself

Like if she's mad at me or something I still love you even though you're upset Oh she'd kill me Yeah To my tone wouldn't be good with that one I don't know that those two are my favorite But yeah Go ahead

The final one which I don't know how I feel about this one but okay Neither way is better or worse We just do it differently Oh, I say that all the time. All the time. Yeah, I get that. My favorite.

That's my favorite. I think it recognizes that yes, we're totally different. My way, but then I think that can also be used as a crutch. Yeah, for sure. We just do it different. Right. And that's probably it's not intended to be used like every single time. No, I use that most times.

You're wanting to like play video games. If there's a difference of opinion, we just do it different. Is that like we agree to disagree? Because I hate that. Yeah, kind of. Like sometimes you do, like, really? Sometimes you do. You do have to do that sometimes.

Like, we're not going to solve this. So what can we learn from this and how can we move forward? So this doesn't become an issue again. That can happen. Yeah. That's such a man way to do it, though. Like, we're always just like, how do we move forward? Oh, I want to fix everything.

Sure. And my wife just wants to, like, talk about it more and more and more. Yeah. Because if it bothers her, it matters to you, right? So you won't stop. Either way, you're not perfect and I love you anyway. There you go. We're pulling a little slips of paper out of our pocket in the middle of a fight,

reading our phrases. is finally seeing until which one works? Like this is for what I do for parenting, especially with adopted kids, there's different things we had to navigate. And I'm sure any parent has to deal with this, but you've got scripts that I've received from therapists. Like, they're good scripts.

Sort of like this. Like, you've just got them in your back pocket. But sometimes in the middle of a parenting situation that was like really intense and I wanted to not mess it up and I needed to do it right. I would like pause and I would run to my room, shut the door.

I'll be right back. Practice message or computer or email from the therapist. I'd be like, okay, yeah, oh, this is good for that one. And I would literally walk back out and then say it verbatim. It feels like what a phone solicitor does when they're trying to sell you or something. Like if they say this, go here. Yes, exactly. Like if their response is this, then you need to say this back.

And I would always get it messed up. Amy's kids think that every time she gets upset, she has to poop, though. That's the weird. Every time mom gets, she runs in the room. Here's a voicemail. Last time I checked, Eddie was supposed to eat 108 shrimp. If he didn't do that, then he would have to shave his head. Last I checked, he has not eaten a hundred and eight shrimp, so I think he needs to shave his head.

He started to want to change the rules, which is kind of a quitter thing to do. Because I don't want to shave my head. It's what he does. But you said you could regardless, I don't want to spend an hour on this, but where are we on this? Are you not doing it? And you don't want to just change it a little bit? We're not modifying the rules. You're the one that claimed you could eat 108 popcorn shrimp.

Because I just thought about it the other day. And I'm like, I just don't think I can eat a hundred and eight popcorn shrimp. Then that didn't just say that. But you didn't think that the day I mentioned it said I'd give you $108 if you can do it. Because I thought they were the little shrimps. But if popcorn shrimps all breaded, dude, I don't know if I can do that. So are you out? And I feel like if I say I'm going to do it.

So are you out. But if you're out, you'll be called a quitter forever and we're going to remember this. Because we remember everything on the show. And I still get $108 if I do it? If you eat all 108 of them. If I do eat like 90, will you give me $90? No money. No money if you don't eat 108.

God, man. Why I'm on a quitter? Are you doing it? Yes or no. Let's do it. Hey, Scoob, so here's what we're going to do. Let's do it. He's saying he's doing it again.

Lunchbox says he's going to eat three pounds of food. We need to set a date for next week where both of these things are going to happen. Okay. Nobody can back out. We got three pounds of food for him to eat. We do both food challenges in a day. Same day. I like the listeners.

I'm starting to get annoyed at it too because both of them are just kind of kicking the can down. Not me. I don't kick the can. You've kicked it longer than me. No, all I've asked is for a date. Next week, scuba. All right, next week we'll take care of it. Boom.

Done. What's his penalty? Nothing. No, it's just, let's see if you can eat. It's an experiment. He said he can eat three pounds of food. And we were going to see if I weighed the same as I did. If I ate three pounds, would I weigh three pounds more?

But if I do complete the task, I do get some money. That's not true. That is true. Thank you. Yeah. 60 bucks is a lot. He volunteered for the case study, basically. He volunteered, yeah.

He's, okay. I'm going to shave my head. Done. Done. Next week we hear. He already has a loser attitude. You hear him. I'm ashamed of hair. 10-8 popcorn shrimp. That's a lot. Here's Amy's pile of stories. So it's road trip season, and I have a list of things that everyone should have in their car.

For a road trip. Yeah, for just being prepared for whatever might happen. And I want to go through the list. Okay, I'm going to have none of this. Because if it's food, I eat it immediately. Sure. If it's bandages, I never get them or put them in the car. Go ahead.

Food and water on there, but I'm with you, but you could maybe put it in the back. So that we... But I'm going to know what's in. there so then I'm gonna, next time I'm gonna pull over, I'm gonna have that bar. And that water, if you leave it in the car, it gets Kim, you can't leave water in the car. Yeah, duh. Go ahead. What else? A jumper cables. Got them. I don't know if I do or not. You should check. No idea. Go ahead. A spare tire and a jack. I don't have one of my car. You have that. I don't. My car does not keep a spare tire in it. I learned the hard way.

I believe that. Yeah. I got a flat and I was like, well, let me change the tire. It's the one thing I can do, manly. You have AAA? Yeah, I've got whatever car dealers. Okay. You're good. Yeah. Okay, tire pressure gauge. That took like three hours something to get out there. Really? Oh, because it's far out. No, I was right next to the dealership, basically. Go ahead. This is going to help some people out.

Warm blanket. No, that takes up space. Basic toolkit. I get dog hair all over it. Okay, this is dumb. No, sorry, this is smart, but it's dumb to think I'm going to do all this. Cash. To just go on a road trip.

Dude, we're going to Tunica. Why am I getting all this stuff? Right, and you get the toolkit, and you're like, okay, now what I do? We're going to the boats. What I need a toolkit for? Flashlight. Yeah, yeah, I hear you. Umbrella?

Are we in a tornado? What's the deal? First aid. An Atlas. We're the Red Cross. What's up? Road flares. I hear you. None of that sounds like. What if something goes wrong and you heard this and you were suddenly prepared? Then that would still suck, but it sucked a little less. Finally, duct tape.

That's for the kidnapping? What is that for? Sounds like where, yeah, before you get rid of the line. You need to duct tape something on. It's just a lot of stuff to put in the car. The car's not very big. I don't have an SUV. My Hyundai's an SUV, but I'm not putting stuff in that. Sometimes they trade out Hyundai's on me and I'm like, what happened in the other? Hyundai. They're like, we traded it for another one.

My flares were in there. And he was in the trunk. My daughter hit the rear mirror backing out of our garage and the next time I saw her, it was duct tape up, so I assumed me and she went to her dad's he did that and I was like, oh, did dad duct tape that for you? And she was like, no, I did it. And I was like, well,

look at you. Like, I don't know why that surprised me so much that she went and found the duct tape and just like put it back together. Like, I was impressed. Isn't she like 16? Yes. But I just thought she's like leave it dangling there. But she made it work.

Okay, so there's a hack that's going viral about Chipotle because people are swearing that the portions are getting smaller and it's annoying. So what you do is you pull out your phone while they're making whatever, your breto or your bowl, and the employee thinks you're filming them and then they make it, you know, more rice, more beans, more meat. I saw, and I don't know how true it is,

a memo that went out within Chipotle saying if somebody pulls out their phone to record because this has become viral. Make sure you fill up their bowl even extra. I mean, this could work for anything. Anywhere you go, just pull your phone out, act like you're filming. Yeah. They're like, oh, I've got to change your tire real quick. Look at this.

Well, from my story the other day, like Chipotle, they're probably dealing with the tortilla the prices. The prices are rising here because of the cartel. They got us. And that's why you need road flares. It's impacting everybody. So, Lainey Wilson's the latest to be invited to be a member of the grand Opry. Reba had the honors of doing that. Super cool. I have some of the biggest names in country music and they're not in the Grandal Opry, like who they are.

This is always a weird list because some people don't want to be in the Opry because they can't play it enough. Like George Strait is not because he can't be back to 12 or 15 times a year that the Opry requires you to play. George has been invited, but he turned it down for Bobby's exact reason. But there's no like, we hate the Opry. Go ahead. Well, Chris Stapleton made his Opry debut in 2013. but he's not a member yet. I mean, I guess you have to play there. You have to play it a bunch too to even be invited.

It's basically like the Illuminati. You don't know how or when or who. And they just randomly show up and invite you. I have not been invited. I've played it 25 times. I've not been a member. I've not been invited. But sometimes I look over my shoulder like,

is today the day? I thought Reba was doing it once on stage and it turns out that wasn't the case. To finish out the list, you got Luke Brian, Tim McGrawl, Faith Hill, Miranda, Lambert, Morgan Wallin and Hank Williams, Junior. Mostly, it's because they can't, in their mind, fairly live up to the expectation of performing what used to be 26 times a year back in the day. Oh, wow. That was way back in the day. In like 2000, they changed it to you've got to do like 12 where Carrie is a big opery member, Carrie Underwood, but she does it smart. She'll do like two shows a night on a Friday to double shows.

Knock them out. And get them all out. Yeah. So, all right, that's a good story. All right, that's it. I'm Amy. That's my pile. Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With producer Eddie. Tell me something good. Andrew is from New Mexico and for a long time he's had difficulties walking because he's got bad legs and his friend was like, man, you should get a bigger dog to help you just

walk around. He said, okay, so he goes to the shelter. He adopts Peanut. Peanut's a huge, great day. He's walking Peanut around and one day he's in the backyard. He trips, he falls. He's like, oh gosh, what do I do? And Peanut reacts quickly, gets behind Andrew, gets its.

nose picks him up because Andrew wasn't breathing. When he fell back something obstructed his airway, he was choking because the dog got behind him, picked him up, he started breathing again. And he's like, dude, I just got this dog. It was 24 hours. He got him from the shelter. Oh, man. These stories are great. It's like the dog was meant to be there.

Like it had to happen just that way. Exactly. And I think like my dog would never save me. I don't want to ruin the good news. I'm just saying like when we read these stories, I know my dog wouldn't either. I know. I don't think it was meant to be. What? No, people are like...

I don't want to rain on it, so I love it. I'm not getting into theory of what is my own... But I love this story. You don't think that he was supposed to get peanut. That's a great story. I love it. What I would answer with, think of all the people that that didn't happen to,

that had almost a similar situation. And it wasn't meant to be that they didn't... There's just a lot of things that don't happen. Like they fell and the dog didn't pick them up. When something needle in a haystack happens, it's just odd. I know, but do you ever wonder, like, maybe... I don't want to do bad news. This is not.

No, this is telling me something good. I love the story. Go ahead. So question, do you ever wonder if maybe they had a nudge the day before, whatever, something that bad was that happened to, like, go get a cat or something and they ignored it? Well, you ever wonder that we all probably think there are nudges and signals and signs from every single thing if we ask for them and then look for them? I know. No, I'm just saying. You don't think there are nudges and then we don't even notice them?

Do you don't think that there aren't nudges? Sometimes there aren't nudges, but we think there are nudges, so we do the wrong thing. And maybe they're... Anyway, this is a good story. Good job, dog. Life is complicated. That's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good.

On a recent episode of the podcast, Money and Wealth with John Hobriant, I sit down with Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money. What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth to the people when they're no longer here? We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth, starting with the mindset shifts, Too many of us were never, ever taught. Financial education is not always about, like, I'm going to get rich. That's great. It's about creating an atmosphere for you to be able to take care of yourself

and leave a strong financial legacy for your family. If you've ever felt you didn't get the memo on money, this conversation is for you to hear more. Listen to Money and Wealth with John O'Brien from the Black Effect Network on the I'd Heart Radio app. Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcast. American Soccer is about to explode.

I'm Tad Ramos. I'm Tom Boe. On our podcast, inside American soccer, you'll get the real storylines. I'm not worried about Policic. I'm not worried about Balagan. I'm not worried about McKinney. My only concern is what happens in the back.

The biggest decisions. If you're going to look at stats and numbers, he has no shot at making this World Cup team. And the truth about the U.S. national team. It wouldn't be a huge surprise if our team ends up in the quarterfinals or potentially a great run into the semifinals. The World Cup is almost here. Experience it all with us. Listen to Inside American Soccer with Tom Bogart and Tab Ramos on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, wherever you get your podcast. Hi, hi everyone. I'm Cheryl Stray, author of Wild and Todd. tiny beautiful things. I'm excited to share that I have a new podcast called Mind Over Mountain.

In each episode, I interview athletes, adventurers, and adrenaline seekers to discuss the inner landscapes and life experiences that informed and inspired their extraordinary feats. I also bring a bit of advice into the mix so we too can better understand how to face our own seemingly insurmountable challenges. Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to pull out what you already have inside. We're coming into this world. fighting for our lives. All I'm going to do is pull out what you already got inside. We're there to support and celebrate each other.

And that's not like your story versus my story. You're going to walk up and over that dang mountain. You're not just going to put your mind over it. Yep, yep, exactly. And if I can't walk up and over it, I'm going to go through it. Listen to Mind Over Mountain every Thursday on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. They say don't take pictures of your tickets if you're going to something

you're going to use those tickets because thieves can steal the barcode. So if you do take a picture of your ticket, put your thumb over the barcode. Also, just wait until the show's over to post your ticket. That's a lot to remember. No, it's not.

Don't let the barcode be seen. You just want to show everyone like, I'm going to the concert. Cover the barcode. I've done that before, like with our credentials sometimes. Yeah, never do that. Before things, like posting it, and then people can know and they can mimic it.

They can make a fake backstage pass and they kill everybody. That's not what you want. want. So if you're going to post your pictures, only post after, or if you're posting, like, we're going, we got tickets, cover the barcode, because they will steal the barcode. They'll create a fake ticket and then sell it, and then you get there and it's been, already gone through. All right, now time for the morning corny. The morning corny. Why does Sunday always beat Monday in arm wrestling?

Why? Because Monday is a week day. That's funny. That was the morning. Morning Corny. That's pretty good one. Happy Monday. Yeah, I like that one.

Our Taylor Swift-loving Lauren, we call her Swifty Lauren, is in studio. She got married a couple weeks ago. She sent a New York Giants sweatshirt. We hear you sent an invitation to your wedding to the New York Giants as a team. Is that true? I did, yes. Is that where you got the shirt? No, no, I've had this for years.

Are you a Giants fan? I am, because I'm from that area. So how did you invite the whole organization? You just sent them an invite? Yeah, we saw this thing on TikTok where couples were sending their favorite sports teams, companies, wedding invitations, not expecting anything from them or obviously for anyone to come. But a lot of them were sending back gifts, autographs, certain things like that. So we were like, why not? Let's just send them out.

So when you do care of, New York Giants, do you do care of Mr. Giant? Or do you find who the CEO? Like who do you send it to? I'm trying to remember. It was a while ago. Like a president, but it was a person. Like Lawrence Taylor, Phil Sims. Lawrence Taylor, sounds like my new name almost.

No, it was like the New York Giants like, like a affiliates office. I don't know. There was like an official like. Where to send an invitation to her? Yes, yeah. Would you guys get a gift? We got back a official marriage certificate from the New York Giants that said, congratulations, Lauren and Clay on your wedding.

had the date on there and said like thanks for all your love and support and we're wishing you guys years of happiness that is amazing actual certificate yeah it was cool it was really cool because it wasn't just like a generic thing where it's like you know they printed out and just send it it out it was like personalized so they actually took the time to go in put our names in put the date and send it out to us you're framing this right and you're putting it in the living room oh yeah I'm gonna be like kids look like mom had like the New Yorker Giants congratulate her that's That's pretty cool. That's really cool.

That they would send something back. That's pretty cool. Yeah. They're the only one who has sent anything back. We probably sent it to like 20 different companies and teams. You invited 20 companies to your wedding? What did they would have come? No, what if they would?

What did you expect? Was it? Yeah. So many what ifs. Go ahead. Honestly, gifts. No, because we've seen people on TikTok be like, oh, we invited Chick-fil-A to our wedding and they sent back like gift cards.

And we, like, so we were just kind of hoping for some gifts. and like swag. Yeah. Great question. What if like the CEO shows up in a suit at your wedding? Like Amy asked. I had no idea this was a thing. But the giants are the only ones to respond?

They're the only ones. Can you give me a few others you sent letters to the maybe? Because they have a whole year to respond. Oh, that's true. Yeah. Who else did you send? Give me like three or four other ones. The Atlanta Falcons because that's his football team.

The New York Yankees because that's my baseball team. And the Atlanta Braves because that's his baseball team. That's good. Any straight companies like food? or clothing. We did Chick-fil-A. We did Amazon. Just pretty much anything. They're basically begging on the street for free stuff.

I did Sephora because I was like, I'm getting married. I need some makeup. Here's my, here's a wedding invite. Lunchbox. I've already got an idea. You got to say you're getting married and send off invitations. I'm just going to make up fake invitations and send them out to people. This is going to be great. Honestly, that's not like they do research and do it.

To businesses. And I'm going to do small businesses too. So that way they see them. Like if you send it to Amazon, it's going to get lost in the shuffle. If you send it to Betty's bookshop, I mean, she made me, that's what I'm doing. Betty's bookshop. But the problem is Amazon has more resources to actually send stuff out. So you meet it kind of in the middle.

I think that bigger is better because it's like New York Giants. They've seen this before. So now they have a system. Now they have protocol of like, okay, when we get this invite, we're going to do this. That's special. I think that's a really good idea. But I don't know that. I'm sure you might get something sweet from Betty's bookshop, but they're going to take the time.

And it's going to put her in debt. Do the sweet thing for you because they will. I mean, Betty might just show up. Yeah. Lauren, will you keep us up to date on if anybody else sends you anything back? Yes. Have you looked at your wedding gifts from the show members yet? We have not yet.

I'm sorry, we have, we've been so busy. No, no, no, no explanation needed. No explanation needed. Lunchbox, have you sent Lauren a wedding gift yet? No, no yet. Okay, you have a whole year, remember? Yeah, I've been looking. Send her certificate.

She loves those. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I'll say congratulations from the Bobby Bone Show. A Bobby Bone Show one, yeah. Lauren, congratulations again. You've been married now for a couple weeks. Any big revelations? Just changing your last name is just such a hard and long process.

Guys, you're so lucky. You don't have to do that. Yeah, that sucks. Yeah. Right. What? Stop, right. Yeah, right.

This couple goes fishing and they're magnet fishing, and so they're looking for anything in the bottom. And they get something that's pretty heavy. And they can't pull it. up. This is where you're fishing for trash, right? Not a fish. Anything mentally. And they can't get it up. So you don't want to pull too hard.

The line will break. And when you're magnet fishing, from the very, very limited magnet fishing that I've seen done, it's not like it's a 10-pound test. It's like much thicker line. However, you still got to be careful not to pop the line. So they pull, they go down a little lower, and it turns out it was a safe that the magnet was attached to. Yes.

Man. Jackpot. pull it up and there was $100,000 in cash. Is that dry? No, not fully. Okay. Nope. And they show the money here and it was and I think $100,000 is kind of what they

ended up getting like that was decent because there's $160,000 and a lot of it was like wet and ruined. But as I've learned, throw it on the dryer. Or the oven. Yeah. Anything. Or the microwave it could flame up. But no, they found it. They pride the safe open. it was wrapped in plastic

and a lot of it was wet, but they do think they can save some of it. But yeah, I wonder what that was doing in there. That is crazy. So is that finders keepers? That's for sure because it's cash. And because it's probably been down there in a while.

And somebody probably threw that safe in there to get rid of it. Right. Not to like... They probably couldn't get it open. They're like, oh, they probably robbed somewhere, couldn't get it open. They're like, ah, this ditch this safe. And then these people got it.

Oh, my goodness. Because you don't think like it flooded a small town and then that safe is just there. That's a nice way of thinking of it. Because you'd probably hit the house with the magnet. There's another money story. A woman in South Carolina, her hand was itching real bad. So she stopped at a Walmart because her hand was itching crazyly,

so she was going to get something for it. And while she was in there, she was like, maybe this hand's itching because of luck. And so she got her a scratch off and she won $30,000. That's what they say, like, back home, like the Hispanics, we say that, like, if your hand's itching, like, buy a lottery ticket. It means you're going to get money. It's not poison ivy or anything.

No, it means you're going to get money. That story is from UPI. Does anyone ever say, are your ears burning or is that a white person thing? No, I've heard that. But we didn't say that, but I've heard that. Yeah. Does that mean someone's talking about you? Yeah.

If you're hands itching, that means you're going to come into money. Yeah. You have any of those other ones? Did you have any lunchbox? No, the ears one. I've known that one. But that's it. I don't know anything about hand itching.

I need to get my hand itching. Come on. Start itching. You need to get your hand ditching? Yes, so I can go get some money because I buy. lottery tickets all the time. I want to go talk to Alicia, who is listening in St. Louis right now. Alicia, we're talking about scuba Steve.

He's been locked out of his Facebook account. A scammers got him. What is your story? Yeah, so I had the same thing happen. What ended up happening is they got into my Yahoo account, which then got into every social media, Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook, etc. And they changed all my passwords. They started sending all my pictures to people, same things, so they could have my identity.

But then immediately started trying to get money from all my friends by selling puppies and all of that. They even got into my ticket master account and tried to transfer my Justin Bieber picket out of my ticket master. But luckily, I had two-step authentication on that. So I got a text message saying, do you want to transfer your tickets? And I was like, no. Did they end up getting anything? But I didn't end up getting back into any of my social media account. I had to make all new ones.

Even when I tried to send in my ID picture, they were like, no, sorry, we can't help you. I wonder if the ID picture thing is tough because someone could fake like a driver's license. If they know your information, they can easily Photoshop one together with the head from any picture on your social media. his next level stuff. I watched a guy who said, he was on TikTok, and he goes, I'm very aware of these scams. He goes, I got a call, and they're going, hey, you didn't pay your jury,

you didn't show up for jury summons. And he's like, I'm pretty anal. I would know. I checked my mail. I always watch. And they're like, nope. And he said, it just so happened. They had moved to a new house within the last like two months.

And so he's like, well, you know what? It could have been sent to the old house. And they're like, it's not an issue. You just need to show up to this place and pay the fine. And so he's like, okay, I'll go. They went as far as to have a place that you could go to. And it was a place, like someone was there to take your money? Yes.

And he said the scam was so perfect where every little part of it was any thought he had that would counter it, they had an answer to it. Because they're predicting what we're going to do and what we're going to say and how we're going to convince ourselves, this is a scam. They have an answer for that. He's guys are good. But it just so happened that he had moved how. And so they can they can do that if it's a numbers game, right? If they throw out 10,000 of them, a couple of them. What are the odds?

Somebody's moving and, well, they just got lucky with this dude. Probably the same scam they tried on everybody. Doesn't work because no, we lived in the same house for 10 years. We check our mail. But because he moved, it happened to work. How do you get in that business? Oh, you want to be a hacker now? No, no.

Scammer? Yeah, like how, like it's not one you can apply for. Do you just know someone in the industry? And they're like, hey, man, we got an opening. Probably somebody, I would assume mostly in a foreign country when it comes to the scam. They have basically like a warehouse where they're, they've been trained in the art of fooling people. Because mostly you can scam anybody. You can scam people with your own name on your page.

Right. You start messaging people and be like, I'm trapped in a well. Send me a gift card. Apple gift card. Well, you just scan them. Now, hacking's a whole different skill. Don't start doing that lunchbox. No, no, I'm not going to do that because I mean, being in a well is unrealistic.

It's true. It is. I wouldn't have Wi-Fi. So people would be like, nah, probably not. I think the hack you could learn, take computer classes. That's why. And do they, like, hire out? Like, do they put classifieds like in the paper?

Maybe black market. Right. Black web, dark web, whatever they call that. Whatever they call that. Yeah. Mike D's on. Black market, dark web. Two different things, but similar, right?

The Venn diagram kind of covers both those a little bit, right? And then I wonder, like, why would they get a Target gift card? So then they just go buy supplies or? Sure. Do they sell it for, like, if it's a hundred-dollar gift cards? Do they sell it for 90? They could sell it or they could just go buy stuff and resell the stuff too. That's a good point.

Yeah, I hate that for you, Alicia. But they didn't get any money from you, right? They didn't get any money from me. Lucky enough, they almost got one from one of my friends who was actually looking for a dog to buy. But luckily enough, once they started asking a bunch of questions late at night, they didn't end up. I'm sorry you were locked out of your accounts. That sucks. Thank you for calling.

Thanks. All right. If you have a good story, hit us up. 877, 77 Bobby. Bobby's big. Stories. All right, time for the news. A quarter of adults don't know how to ride a bike.

28% of adults can't swim. That's crazy. I thought so, too. Then I started to think about it. There are major parts of this country that live in pure metropolitan areas where you would never even learn how to ride a bike because there's no land. Imagine you grew up in New York City. You're probably not learning how to ride a bike the same way that I do.

growing up in rural Arkansas. There's Central Park. Yeah, but again, that's such a tourist thing. And again, unless your parents are taking you, it's not a normal part of life in these massive cities if you live in a city. Wow. That's a great point. I never even thought about that, but that's wild.

I was thinking that, too. It's like a quarter of people couldn't ride a bike, but then that's got to be people who grew up where riding bikes, it's not they were like, I'm never riding a bike. No, I think it was mostly they probably grew up where that wasn't a big part of childhood. 28% can't swim. Similar thing. I mean, that's never changed, really.

Costco shopper has out thousands of dollars after being charged 17 times for this single trip to the grocery store. An Arizona woman who spent $308 on a Costco grocery hall now owes a total of $5,241. Her name is Ashton. It happened in Phoenix. She bought the product with her city credit card. According to AZ family, she received notifications from City about the duplicate charges being made to her card. At first I was thinking, oh, that's weird. It must be delayed.

but then it hit again and again and again and again 17 extra charges they have no idea what happened but now she's got to go through the whole process luckily it was a credit card yes because they can go through that process and clear you this isn't so much a scammer this is a computer malfunction or somebody

getting real happy with the inner button you're telling me if it's cash they can't give you money back you're not going to be charged 17 times over for cash you're going to know when you pay it right there then how would it be back because like you said credit card thank Debit card. You're not going to pay cash.

I don't understand your question. Well, you said, like, thank goodness it was credit card. What's another option where it would be like, oh, I can't get my money back? If they would have just messed it up and she paid it or a credit card in general, I don't know about this. But if you do anything, even if you get stuff stolen from you on a credit card, you can go and file or call and be like, hey, this was not me. Is that the same with the debit card? Probably, but the difference there is debit. Your money's gone until they fix it.

A credit card you owe. But oh and $1,000 is the same if you're not paying any of it. So I would say that it's probably better that it's credit. There are more rules. If you pay somebody cash and you find out later on that... Money gone, sorry? Maybe.

Maybe more so money gone sorry. But credit cards are cool like that now. Mostly you can buy whatever. And if there's a mess up, they give it back to you. They also trust everybody for everything. Like, you could just say this was stolen. Don't say that. Don't say that.

Well, shit can say that. I don't abuse it. But I don't abuse the system, so I don't care. I could say whatever. I feel like some people, even with like Amazon, you can be like, I never got my stuff. Yes. And they're like, okay, well, we'll give. But when you do it like the fourth time, they're probably on to you and they cancel your account.

Right. Gen Z's using anointment for chat cow utters on their own faces as a night cream. Almost half of Gen Z Americans feel like they're living a double life. Two things here. Number one is that people that get online live differently and they react differently to people than they would in real life. I think we see that. So true, yes. So I got two stories here. I, you know, I was on TikTok this weekend, and I've been doing these answer things on TikTok where people ask me questions, they post on the comment, and I'll just answer it.

Some dude wrote a comment. It was like, Bobby, you're an embarrassment to country music. And so I just posted that one and answered it. And I was like, I feel you. I said, I understand why you would think that I don't agree. But I was thinking, I thought about like seven right in my first. friends that are super happy and they never write negative stuff on people's social media like they are they are not consumed with other people's anything and so like my friends that are super happy or fulfilled or have other things going on their life they don't get under someone's ticot or facebook or instagram and write you're an idiot you're stupid something political because they have their own lives and so what i started talking about in that message was if you had a lot going on positively

you wouldn't be doing this so everybody that's watching this when you get you get negative comments, just understand that people that are saying stuff like this to you, it's because they're sad or they're losers. Dang, you got deep like that? Well, I did, but then I got community guidelines and they took it offline. They took it off my TikTok. Are you cyberbullying? I didn't feel like that was cyber bullying.

Oh, because you call someone a loser. I said the person who, yes, it doesn't matter. The person was a loser who did it, but my video was ripped off TikTok. That's terrible. So I posted another one using a screenshot from the original one, and it haven't made community guideline yet, but I feel like I'm probably going to get taken off TikTok later. They haven't got on to yet. Mr. Bobby Bones on TikTok if you want to check that out. The other thing was the ointment. There are a lot of medicines. There are a lot of medicines that can be used for different things,

but they market it toward one thing, meaning any sort of PMS medicine. You could use that for headache, for blood. There's a lot of things, but they go, okay, we have this, we're going to specifically market this for these symptoms. So, we're going to specifically market this for these symptoms. So Whatever this cream is could probably be used as 100 different things for skin, for, you know, crusty, whatever. But it's a oint, it's chapped cow udders ointment. Who knew the cow udders got chapped? Well, think about it. Like, the baby's just trying to get milk all day.

Like, of course you're going to get chapped. And any skin, but I don't know that can't. Regular udders get chapped. Excuse me? We don't call it that, but, you know, when a mom's breastfeeding. Oh, human utters. Yes. Yeah, they do.

They do kind of get chapped. Human udders. Regular utters, human utters. Choosing to become a parent It could end up shortening a man's life. A groundbreaking new study reveals that fatherhood may take an alarming toll on men's heart health as they get older. Researchers found that cardiovascular health tended to be worse for fathers compared to men without kids. That's from AGPM Focus, the research publication.

Thoughts Eddie? I mean, yeah, it's stressful. So, yeah, you're going into a stressful situation, but that's any stressful situation, except this one lasts for a long time. 18 years, 18 years. So, yeah, I get that. One more story. One week break from social media is enough to significantly approve the body image, self-esteem, and mental health that we are neglecting for 50-year-olds and younger. The study is among the first look at the effect of a social media break on mental health, body image.

The study simply had half of its participants avoid using TikTok, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram for a week. the results show that young people who have abstained, experience larger boosts and self-esteem with body image. That makes sense. Because you're not seeing that every day. Social media isn't bad if used properly, if consumed properly. If there's an understanding of what you're seeing there isn't actual real life. It's a slice of somebody's life and it's probably slightly modified,

especially the entire package you're seeing from someone. They're showing you what they want you. to see, but it has allowed me a lot of relationships, friends, making friends, connections. But yeah, it's all about how you use it. And I think that's where the education needs to come in. More so than, don't use it. This is how you use it and this is what you should and shouldn't believe. Yeah, that's hard to watch that and think that some of what you're watching is not real.

Like, especially from your friends, even though you know that's the best of and they got really. It's definitely greatest hits over there. Yeah, yeah, for sure. Bodies. Stories. On a recent episode of the podcast, Money and Wealth, which, John Hobriant, I sit down with Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money. What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth to the people when they're no longer here?

We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth, starting with the mindset shifts. Too many of us were never, ever taught. Financial education is not always about like, I'm going to get rich. That's great. It's about creating an atmosphere for you to be able to take care of yourself and leave a strong financial legacy for your family. If you've ever felt you didn't get the memo on money, this conversation is for you to hear more. Listen to Money and Wealth with John O'Brien from the Black Effect Network

I'm excited to share that I have a new podcast called Mind Over Mountain. In each episode, I interview athletes, adventurers, and adrenaline seekers to discuss the inner landscapes and life experiences that informed and inspired their extraordinary feats. I also bring a bit of advice into the mix so we too can better understand how to face our own seemingly insurmountable challenges. Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to pull out what you already have inside.

We're coming into this world, fighting for our lives. All I'm going to do is pull out what you already got inside. We're there to support and celebrate each other. And that's not like your story versus my story. You're going to walk up and over that dang mountain. You're not just going to put your mind over it. Yep, yep, exactly.

And if I can't walk up and over it, I'm going to go through it. Listen to Mind Over Mountain every Thursday on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. American soccer is about to explode. The World Cup is coming. Ramos sending on to Ernie Stewart the chip. I'm Tab Ramos. I'm Tom Boe.

On our podcast, Inside American Soccer, you'll get the real storylines. I'm not worried about Policic. I'm not worried about Balligan. I'm not worried about McKinney. My only concern is what happens in the back. The biggest decisions. If you're going to look at stats and numbers, he has no shot at making this World Cup team.

And the truth about the U.S. national team. It wouldn't be a huge surprise if our team ends up in the quarterfinals or potentially a great run into the semifinals. The World Cup is almost here. Experience it all with us. Listen, Inside American Soccer with Tom Bogart and Tab Ramos on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, wherever you get your podcast. Hey, let's talk to Tommy in Richmond.

Hey, Tommy, so you are a white hat hacker, a legal hacker. Is that true? Yes, sir. So what do you do and how did you get into that? As far as what I do, I'm head of application security for a company based in New York City, but I also do something called bug bounties on the side. That's where companies invite hackers to break into their systems, find the vulnerabilities and to show them so that way they can fix them. And each time we're successful, they pay as a bounty.

They say, hey, good guy, because they know if you get into it, you're not going to steal from them. So they go, come and hack me, because if you hack me, that allows me to see where I can easily be hacked. And so how many times have you done that and you've been able to break through? Tens of thousands of times. I've made just under $5 million since 2016 inboundies. Do what? I've hacked every major company you can think of from Yahoo alone is paid me $1.9 million. But I've hacked Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Microsoft, MGM, just about any money.

And how did you get into this business? Were you ever a not-good guy hacker? Yeah, I actually spent from 1993 to 2010 as a quote-unquote black hat, illegal hacker, and I spent five years in federal prison for it. When you go to federal prison for hacking, is that like a nicer prison since you weren't, like, stabbing? Well, it was supposed to be, but because I did something stupid when I was a kid, they counted it as a violent charge, and they put me in maximum security for it. So you're a maximum security for hacking.

How did you get caught? One of my co-defendants told on me. In 2001, we went to a convention in Las Vegas called DeathCon, and he got arrested for vandalism. And when we went home, he bragged about it on our website. They investigated, found him, and he was 14 at the time. So they told him if he didn't tell on us that they would charge him with everything we had done. So he told on everybody in the group. And how did you get into computers and then into, I don't know if it's coding and then hacking?

Like, what was that process? In 93, I joined the wrong IRC channel. The IRC was a way to chat with people back in the 90s. It's still used today, but it's not as popular. And I joined the wrong room. It was earned by a hacker, and I thought it was the coolest thing in the world. So I annoyed him for probably six months until he agreed to start teaching him. Can you just see somebody's laptop or phone?

Or is it possible to watch people through their cameras? This is it much easier than we think it is? It depends. Since most people don't take the necessary precautions they need to to protect their systems, keeping them off the date and everything, it is easier than you would think it is for a computer. Your phones, not so much. The people that can break into your phones,

a vulnerability to hijack a new iPhone is worth a million dollars. So they're not going to use that on random people, a boyfriend or girlfriend. That's something that nation states are using so that way they can spy on other political people and things like that. Dang. So do you just get emails or calls going, hey, Tommy, we know you're a great whitehead hacker. We'd like to hire you. How does someone hire you to do this? Most of the time, I've got a Twitter account that I use for my hacking stuff, and most people send me messages on there, or they'll send me an invite to their. bug bunny program through the Hacker Warner Bookcraft platform.

And if I'm not doing anything and I like the company, then I'll go and take a look at them. But most of the time, they don't pay enough to make it worth my time. Does it bother people that you have a background in prison and black hat hacking if they want to hire you to white hat hack? Or is that mostly how hackers do? They go bad and then they go good. Well, it did bother people. when I came home from prison in 2010, I couldn't get anybody to trust me

with a computer job. It took me about three years before I found a small start up here in Richmond that would give me a chance. But now in 2024, a lot of companies are more accepting of it because they understand that to catch a criminal, it's best to have somebody that knows how they think.

And if you just hire somebody straight out of college, it's all theoretical. They don't really have hands-on experience. But I spent some, I spent time on both sides of it, so I know how the good guys think and how the bad guys start. So you can work your own schedule then. If you want to go for a week and chill on a beach, you can and hack. Can you hack from anywhere?

Is it a remote job? Yep, it's 100% remote. Even my head of AppSec job is 100% remote. Wow. But I spent absolutely, I did nothing else from 2016 to 2020 except for the Bunknone's. I would work for 10 hours a month and I was making seven figures a year. can you hack a bad guy? Let's say a scammer was scamming me.

And I'm like, Tommy, this dude is scamming me. They've got it in my stuff. Could you hack a bad person and that still be considered white hat hacking even though you're doing it illegally? It really depends. Like, here in the U.S., we have some of the worst computer crime laws in the entire world. Like, they're extremely strict. And I couldn't do it while I was in the U.S. but if I was in another country and it was somebody that I was targeting that was outside of the U.S.,

then the U.S. might not care, but it's not really worth the risk. It's life in prison if I get caught hacking somebody to get illegally. Tommy, when you got out of prison, did you, like, were you behind on the hacking technology? Were you just like, oh, man, so much has changed. Well, luckily, when I was in the second two times, they had introduced computers and emails into the federal prison system. So I had people that I was emailing back and forth with just because I wanted to hack their computers to give me more access. So I'd have people sending me information. I got various magazines and books while I was in to stay up to date.

And just, I'm ADHD. So computers are the only things that I can like really focus on and never lose interest in. So it's even if I fall behind a little bit, I can catch back up pretty quick. So what's the thing that we're doing right? Is it opening files and emails? Like how are most people getting their computers hacked into, just general public? The people that are on Facebook that share those 50 questions about their significant other or themselves to see how well you know each other. People don't understand that every single one of those questions you answer are your secret question answers.

So all the hacker needs to do is become friends with you on Facebook and wait for you to post one of those things. and then they can go and start trying to compromise your account. So it's not even that someone's breaking in. They're just seeing information that someone's posting and taking it, you know, accumulating it all and going trying out passwords and stuff. Most of them have the forgot password link when you have your account, like Google and everything. And all you need to know is somebody's birth date, the email, and then it'll ask you most of the time two secret question answers,

which are going to be your first pet's name, your oldest child's middle name, and things like that, and everybody freely shares that information on Facebook. So, Tommy, do you recommend people have different passwords or, like, one for all of their things? You should have a different password for every website that you have, and it can't be just like password one, two, three for one, password one, two, four for another. They should be completely different passwords that are unrelated. I know it's a little bit tedious, but it's the only way to give yourself some protection, because you don't know what company is going to be hacked next.

Like, Facebook could get hacked tomorrow and had all of our passwords that we've used on Facebook. And if you've used that password anywhere else, they've got your password for everything else. My final question is, when we hear about Russia or China hacking into our grid or whatever that means, I mean, is that something we should be worried about or do we have the best hackers? Who has the best hackers? Oh, man. The NSA has extremely good hackers. and the tailored access operations.

But when it comes to the best, it's probably China, simply because of sheer volume. And the only reason that all you hear about in the news is China and Russia doing it is because you're watching American news. The Americans do it just as much, if not more, as they do. Our news just won't call out our own hackers for doing the illegal stuff. But if we had like a hacking Super Bowl, America would win? Well, there's actually kind of a hacking Super Bowl every year called Home to Own.

Okay. And, I mean, most of the hackers are from the U.S., but a lot that find some really crazy bugs are from, like, mainland China. Russia doesn't get to participate in things like that because of their sanctions. Right. But, I mean, if there was one country, though, you had to declare the great – 10 hackers, the best 10 hacker team, who would you bet put your money on? Probably the Americans. USA! USA! So is he considered one of the best American hackers?

I'm considered the highest paid legal American hacker in North Carolina. Let's go. USA! USA! Tommy, honestly, in every way, thank you for calling because we learned a lot. Dude, this dude just sits there and hacks Yahoo and gets paid millions of dollars. And Tommy, we're on your side, dude. Yeah, we support you all the way.

We love Tommy! Thank you. Hey Tommy, appreciate the call, buddy. No problem. Y'all have a great day. I wonder if that was a real voice because I wonder if he manipulated that. Sound like a real voice. Well, I don't know.

It sounds a little deeper. You think it's spanking it? That's a good, that's a good call. I don't think that all estate sales are for dead people. That's the most morbid thing I've ever done. But I don't think that just because you went to one, that means they died. Sometimes it's just like a full, like they're moving or, are you sure the person died? It was a double death.

What do you mean? So you went to a house. You saw it was an estate sale. My wife follows estate sales on, I guess, social media. I don't know why. She has an obsession with this stuff. And I had never been. And she's like, oh, there's an estate cell.

Let's go. And so we go. And I find out it is dead people. Like, you are just walking through there, searching through the dead people's stuff. And they die. You know for sure they die. Yeah, double death, man. Did you ask?

like the story. Some lady that was shopping there, I found one of the pamphlets from the funeral. I was like, look at how sad this is. And she shows it to me. And it's like, what in the world is going on? And I'm like, this is so awkward. I am digging through this dead man's closet

looking at his jackets and his hats and his coats. Do you buy anything? Yeah, we ended up buying them stuff. And I took some free food out of the pantry because it said free food in the pantry. They had like boxes of rice of roni and hamburger helper. Ricearoni.

Is it old? No, no, no. Okay. They just died, like recently. See, I've been to one where somebody got divorced, but they're like, hey, divorce, we've got to sell everything. I've been to one of those kind of estate sales. A lot of times they're for death or somebody just having to fully. I mean, there was like toothbrushes on the counter.

There was a toothpaste. Did they die like an hour ago? It's terrible. They died like two weeks ago, three weeks ago. And so their family just said, come by whatever you want. We're going to leave it all as it is. Everything was just laid out. I mean, everything and everything you wanted.

Yeah, that's weird. I mean, that feels weird. I felt so uncomfortable like digging through their closets. I walk in and it's like the hat is on the bed. Like he just laid the hat there like, oh, I'm going to get my hat in the morning. Never came back to it.

Never had a morning. Oh my gosh, dude. It was so weird. And I was like, we have to leave. Except you want a rice rony for free. But then it said free food in the pantry and I opened the pantry. It was a really nice pantry like sliding shelves. And then it had rice of rony, hamburger helper, had some cans of soup.

How much of that did you take? I took two bags. bags of food yeah like I put it in like two grocery bags you took two full grocery bags of food oh they're probably half full because it was pretty heavy I didn't want to double bags so I just did two bags of that but it was morbid dude I heard you upset they're not giving away free snacks it's the new office I'm refusing to move I'm refusing to move I went by the new office uh because I had to go get something from one of the sales ladies and I was like oh yeah where those snacks at you know what I mean? She goes, oh, no, no, no, we discontinued the snacks. I said, no, no, you didn't

discontinue. She goes, yeah, there's no longer free snacks here. Probably because we were coming. They knew better. Well, we went over and we toured with our studio to another building down the road, and they had free snacks for all the people that worked there all the time. But there was no way that was going to survive with us going there. No, we love free stuff. And he will take it all home. He took ricearoni from a dead man's house. This is true. Dead man and woman. They both died. Both died. Double death, he said, man. Dude, it was like, what did you buy? I bought a mirror My wife liked the mirror

And then she bought a Picture of a winter tree A tree with snow on it Because she goes Oh I can pull that out during the During Christmas season We can put it on the wall Is it marked down like a yard sale?

Yeah like 30 bucks Mirror like 40 bucks It was like a big long Like a mirror like this And she follows an account That tells her where to go to these Yeah Estate sales all over the city

I guess What was the coolest thing in there though? Like, did they have cars or anything that you were like, oh, I can't afford that. But if I could, that'd be awesome. Oh, they had, well. Did they sell the house? Do they sell the house? No, the house wasn't for sale, but there was a really nice, I don't even know what it's called,

but it was in the next to the kitchen table and you keep dishes in it. But it was like $5,000. A cupboard? Is that a cupboard? You wouldn't sell a whole cupboard. I almost bought Bobby an Arkansas hat. The guy was an Arkansas fan. Oh.

Rest of peace. Well, you probably knew him. But I was like, man, this may be weird. It was like old school Like it was like from the late 70s I love when someone tells you what they almost did for you No but that's my favorite thing I almost got you something

You didn't do that How annoying is that when someone's like I almost did something nice for you A I thought would Bobby wear a dead man's hat B I felt weird picking up the clothes man Like I Well thank you for almost doing something nice for me But telling me about it

And it's weird that you didn't want to pick up the clothes But you took the food home Almost gave you a rage yesterday. Really? Yeah, I was home. And I was like, you know what? Nah, but I didn't. Nice of you, Mom.

Yeah, but I didn't. But I also thought it was weird that that lady was taking one of the pamphlets from the funeral to take home with her. Like, that was weird. Like, why would you do that? Somebody was there shopping and they took a pamphable. Yeah, she's the one that showed me the thing. She was just shopping. She had a couple items in her.

Like, she had a sun hat. She goes, once I read this pamphlet, I can't buy the sun hat. That's strange. Yeah, that's weird. Hey, so what's an estate? Like, if I... Everything. It's everything. But if I die, is my house now an estate?

But an estate would be defined as anything in what you own. Oh. That would be your estate. I mean, the shower curtain was for sale, man. Everything was for sale. Everything must go. The tooth face.

That's like clearance, clearance. Dang. I guess it's better, like, you know, than you cleaning up the house. Just sell it all. That's the most clearance sale you could possibly have. Bobby Bones show. Bonehead.

Norrie up the day. This story comes to us from Columbia County, Georgia. A 54-year-old woman was at home when there was a raccoon in her yard. She said, man, I got to get rid of this. Who's she going to call? 911, what's your emergency?

Oh, yeah, can you come tase this raccoon getting in my trash cans? Said, ma'am, this isn't a 911 call. Please don't call us again. Hour later, she calls back. Hey, yeah, could you Google some restaurants for me? I'm hungry and was wondering if any of them are open right now. Oh, she just wanted a friend, basically.

So this is sad more than it is. Well, I think she had been drinking. Oh, well, they're not so sad. Dumb. Okay. I can be easily changed. She was drunk. That's different.

Yeah, so they came and gave her a ticket for misuse of 911. I felt that. I'm Lunchbox. That's your Bonehead Story of the Day. Hope you have a great rest of the day. Goodbye, everybody. Readers, Katie's finalists, publicists. We have an incredible new episode this week for you guys.
