Morning. Morning. Morning. So I woke up, and he couldn't walk this morning. Like, one of his legs completely just, it was holding it in the air. So we stopped sending him to, like, the doggy daycare. We'd send him a few times a week, so he'd get his energy out.

But he started getting sick, and I think he was getting sick from the other dogs. And Bulldogs, just not the healthiest of dogs. I don't think they should make Bulldogs anymore. I don't think they should breed them. In some countries, they've stopped breeding them. Really? Because they're just not... And I never want to...

I love Stanley. Like, that's my guy. But in general, bulldogs are not healthy dogs. And there's so much incest. And so from what I know about bulldogs, probably not the healthiest of breeds. They're so darn cute, though. They are.

They're awesome. But he goes... And every time he goes now, goes once a week, he hurts something or he's sick. And he's, like, blown his hip out. And so I'm concerned that he's got to go have like a full hip replacement.

Because those bulldogs get their hips constantly messed up or they have them constantly messed up. So this is probably segment one of 20 of me having to deal with this. I hope, because sometimes the dog was having a mystery injury and it'll go away the next day. Yeah.

So we're... That happens to me too. What? Mystery injury. And you're your animal. Me? Oh, you're... How's the cat? She's good. She might drive me to drinking sometimes.

What happened? She does... I mean, she's just all kinds of things, but we accidentally locked her in the pantry the other day. Oh, no. She was in there for, I don't even know. hours. She peed in the crock pot, which makes sense. It looks like a litter box.

I'm glad she opted to do that instead of like, because we have baskets in our pantry full of food, and that would have been worse. And I wouldn't be able to clean the baskets and probably just have to toss them. But the crock pot, you know, running through the dishwasher, good to go. So you just washed it and you're good. Because I would have done the same thing. Some people would go, I would never touch that crock pot again if somebody peed in it. Oh yeah. Don't tell my kids. Do you think they'd have an issue with that? Yes.

They'd be like, ew, we're never eating. Do you worry the cat will now always think that's a toilet? I'm going to have to just put it. Yeah, I have thought about that. But I can put the lid on. The problem is the lid wasn't on, but I can store it in the pantry with the lid on and solve that problem. I was going to say I could put it up high, but she can get everywhere. She can get up high.

I don't know how she does it. They have claws. But still, claws on a pantry. I can jump. I know. Make the whole room ivory. She can't climb it. It's crazy.

Marbles. Like she gets the wall. that's better. Instead of ivory. That'd be expensive. Yeah, and probably not good for the elephants. Eddie, you still have a dog? I do have a dog. People keep asking me that. Like, hey, you haven't posted picture of your dog.

Like, is it dead? No. Cotella, right? Coachella. She's still there. You don't post pictures, so we just think you died and you don't tell us. I don't. She is like a teenager, though. She stays upstairs for most of the day. And then when she's hungry, she comes down and she wants to be petted on the head. And then where's my food? You feed her. And then she's like, all right, I'm going back upstairs. See you tomorrow. It's just kind of how she lives her life. I walk her every day. but that's about it.

Is the fish still alive? Yeah. Are you sure? Because when you answer that question, you're... Yes. You promise? Luckily, because I did forget to feed it one day. My daughter spent the night at a friend's house.

I don't know, this was a few days ago. And she was like, hey, mom, feed the fish. I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, no problem. Then she comes home from the friend's house. Like 30 hours have passed. Mom, did you feed the fish? What, did you say yes? No, I didn't.

I forgot. And she's like, Mom! but fish is still taking it. What if someone forgot to feed you for 30 hours? Yeah, think about that. I thought about that too, and I was like, I can't believe I forgot to feed the fish. I had one responsibility to add to my list of

100 other things I was supposed to do. I just forgot to feed the fish. Oh, crap. The fish chapter of pita is outside. The fish, what? The fish chapter of pita. No, but it's fine. So now we know.

The fish can go a little bit. Promise me that if that fish dies, you're not just going to go replace it. Oh, I swear. Because I don't gain anything from y'all. are the ones with the bet. But if the fish dies, we'll blame you for killing a fish. Oh.

Well, plenty of people have DMed me, emailed me, sent me messages that they killed their fish. So I'm not the only person. That's a terrible Facebook group to be a part of. I killed my fish group. Yeah. Okay. Ray, still, how's the cat? I was going to check on animals here.

Yeah, he's about to have his 14th birthday. So, I mean, he's about to drive. And it's a tiger cat, right? Yeah, it's a Bengal. I mean, one of the more expensive. cat you could get. Why do you always say more expensive? Like it's some sort of flex. Talking about how much the cat costs. Kind of proud of that. I mean, we have maintenance people come over all the time. Oh my gosh. It is a beautiful cat. I'm like I know. He's my son.

It looks like it belongs in the wild. It is a little too big. Oh, it's huge. And exotic as well. Yeah. But it was so far away from whatever it's called that you're allowed to have it. If it was a link, not allowed to have those. But this one you can. All right. Thank you. I don't know what he's talking. I don't know. there. I'm still trying. Yeah. All right, it's time to open up the mailbag. You send an email and we read it on the air. It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Yeah.

Hello, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, Bobby Bones. I recently got engaged and my fiance and I are coming up with our guest list. We're wanting a small wedding, so we're trying to invite the people that mean the most to us. I have this one friend that I haven't spoken to for over a year now, but I was one of her bridesmaids, so I would still like to send an invitation to her. my fiance says I shouldn't send her one since we're just trying to invite people that are dear to us. Please let me know what you think I should do. Love, bride to be. What I think you should do is what feels the best to you. I think it's okay to invite someone even if you don't talk to someone can be close to you without being close to you every single day. Like I would say my

friend Courtney, great friend, we might talk once every four months. But if I needed a kidney, he would drive up and give me a kidney. Sometimes life gets in the way of being able to talk to certain people all the time. I think if this person is important to you and you feel like you want to invite her, you should be able to invite her. I don't think that close people mean close people to you every single day. So, you know, I'm a big guy. After having a wedding recently and going through this, you should surround yourself with what makes you feel the best. I don't think you're obligated to invite anybody. Just because you were in her wedding, you shouldn't feel obligated. But if you want to be like, I want you kind of my wedding too.

You should be able to do that. You should do what makes you feel the best. So if you want to do it, do it. You and your fiancé both have the option to invite different people. As long as you're not going over the limit with her, then I think you're good. Amy? Yeah, I co-sign on that. Send the invitation.

Like, if you feel like he's going to have people, maybe he wants to invite where you're like, eh, it's not really a big deal. But only you know how you would feel not sending the invitation. And if you walk away from that feeling weird, then just send it. It's one person. Maybe a date, too. Yes, it's fine.

I think it's fine. If it's in your heart, let it rip. That's what I say, especially at a wedding time. Don't feel obligated to invite anyone, though. That's the other advice that I give away from this is that if you're like, ooh, we should invite them because of,

don't worry about it. And if someone gets irritated, that's going to pass and be gone in two weeks anyway. I can't remember the weddings I've been invited to. But also, if you get invited, RSVP, I learned about that,

less than the hard way. Oh, yeah. I would never R-SVP, but now that I've had a wedding, I'll R-SVP to anything. All right, go for it. Do it makes you feel good. Thank you for the email. We got your email and we read it on the air. Now it's about to close.

Bobby's Melty. Yeah. Morgan Wade is one of my favorite new artists. She has my favorite album that's out now. You would know her from this song Wilder Days. So here's an interview I do with Morgan Wade, and then we're going to play her live performance doing Wilder. Elder days in studio. All right, check it out.

Morgan, how are you? I'm good. How are you? I'm doing pretty good. It's nice to finally meet you. You as well. When did you start tinkering around with music? Like at 5, 6, 7? Yeah, I was like, the earliest I remember like 7 years old, like writing songs. Writing songs, not just listening and liking music. No, no, I remember like writing songs in like a very early age. So how did you even know that you could write a song? Because when I was 7, I didn't know you

could write a song. Did you have musical people around you? No, not at all. I remember just being like such a secret, and I'm still not entirely sure why it was such a secret, but I would write and like singing stuff until I'd see, you know, one of my parents come home and I'd put it away. It's like I didn't want anybody to hear me. Why do you think that is? Like deep down, why do you think that is? I was told one, there was a, there was a singing group at school, and I was the only kid that didn't make it. And I was told my voice was weird, and that just stuck with me.

It's like, all right, no more, no more. I'm not doing that. And I was sensitive, very sensitive. I mean, you know, you're young like that, and you get told that. And so I was like, all right, you know, it's just for me, which I think benefited me the most because I enjoy doing it. So I kept doing it. But, you know, you can be really honest with yourself. You're not out there trying to impress anybody.

It was just something I did to, like, cope. So that's how I write now. You know, it's the only way I know to write. Have you done any sort of radio tour yet where you go to radio stations? Yeah. Yeah. Does everyone go straight to the tattoos first? Most of the time, yeah.

And so what is your stock answer when someone goes, oh, what's up with the tattoos? A lot of times I'm just like, oh, I forgot I had tattoos. You know, I just say something like, and then they're just like, okay, this girl's. When did the tattoo thing start and was it all at once? Or did you just kind of just mess around with a little bit? No, no. My freshman year of college, I remember I was sitting in my, like, apartment. And one of my friends was there, and she was just like, I think you would like tattoos.

I don't know why she said that. And I was like, I should do that. I think I had $90 in my bank account. And I went and I got a tattoo. And then I was just like, okay, I really like this. And I think a few weeks later, I went and got like three more at one time. A few weeks later? Yeah.

I got paid between that, I guess. With the goal of, is the goal now to cover your whole body? No, I don't really know what my goal is anymore. I'm going to be honest with you. Getting tattoos at 19 and then getting tattoos now at 27, the pain is a lot different. I swear it hurts more now. And maybe it's just because I've ran out of all the easy spots. Everybody check out Reckless.

The Deluxe Edition just came out if you were like me and you gobbled up the entire record. Six new songs. You're killing it. This song's going to be a massive, massive hit. All right, there she is. You guys follow Morgan at Morgan Wade music. Morgan Wade music.

Thanks, Morgan. Yeah, thank you. The Bobby Bones show. All right, here's Morgan Wade performing her song Wilder Days. She did it live in our studio. Check it out. I ain't got a clear of you Tell me what you want me to do

I know you travel a lot and you are chasing your dreams. My cousin started up a distillery, right? And it's really taken off. And I'm in southern Indiana. I got a dedicated relationship with two daughters. My fiance does not want me to travel, be away from home no matter what. but this opportunity is like an opportunity of a lifetime. How could I balance the two?

It's a great question. I am also living this as well where I would just run. I foot loose and fancy free. I do 10 jobs a day. I'd be in seven times in 10 minutes. But now I have a wife. I have another part of my life that I have to consider. And so I'm now trying to balance a bit.

And it is a struggle. And we both make concessions where she will go and sit in a crap hotel room in a tiny town in Iowa and be with me when I'm shooting a show. And then I will make sure to dedicate a couple days to her where we're doing things that's good for our relationship and our family. So for us, we are trying to achieve balance. Here's the thing about balance. It's never perfectly achieved. You're always slightly leaning one side or the other or just way on one side of the other. Your fiance, what's her big beef? Like, is it you're just not going to be with her or your daughters? What's her issue?

Well, we've kind of had a rocky relationship for 17 years, and she's kind of set in her way being at her job. And her only living family left is her dad here in New Albany. But I don't have any family left. So her problem is me trying to chase the dream. And she's saying it's not fair that I leave her at home to take care of the kids, have to work, have to do that while I'm off running around doing God knows what. What's God? knows what. I thought you were going to work.

Yeah, I thought you're going to the distiller. Well, I have so many questions. A Rocky 17-year relationship. Did that stick out to anybody? Yes, that was my first question. Like, how long have you been engaged? We've been engaged. 16 years.

Okay. You've been engaged. So this is a non-traditional engagement. Yes. Yeah, yeah. Are you guys considered married? We've lived, wife, and husband. We just haven't took that step to get married.

Why? We've had a really. rocky relationship. Like I said, I have no family, and we kind of ran into some issues when I had, like, a major trauma. And this is an opportunity of a lifetime. We could have millions of dollars. Like, I would be part owner of a whiskey brain that Jim Bean's already picked up, and he loves it. And he just does not want me to be a part of it because she says, you need a nine to five job, stay here at home with us, and I'm okay with just a mediocre life. Well, James, you've been engaged for 16 years.

It's been Rocky. She left you when you were down. Yeah. I would make, let's just knowing your story and what I know of it, this brief call, I would prioritize your daughters more than I would prioritize this rocky 16-year fiancé relationship. Because it feels like that's on and off. Yeah. And if it was on more than off, you probably would be married.

I would prioritize your daughters. and if you feel like you could be a good dad to them while venturing off and doing this job, I would do this job. She's a key piece to you being able to do that, though, right? Because for you to travel, you need her to help with the kids. That's what she's saying. She said basically me doing it is me walking out on my family.

What's our problem? I want to get her on the phone. I think he has to stop saying God knows what, when he's working out there. I think he needs to assure her that he's working. And God knows what, yeah. How far is the drive? I need to know this too.

How far is it to get to this place? Are you having to move away? Well, it's about four hours. And I even did it two weeks commuting. I would go up work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. I'd be back home Friday, Saturday, Sunday. That was not good enough. I mean, four hours doesn't seem that bad if you ask me.

But also, we need to, so, yeah, change the language of God knows what. Yeah, get rid of that. Get rid of that. Get down to work. Tell him exactly what you're doing. You do it so much work. So much work. I don't know.

Just like, yes, Bobby, like Bobby said, your kids are your top priority. Obviously, we have gaps in the story. We don't know the whole thing. But as someone that loves you, if she does, then she should want to support your dreams. Thank you for calling. We encourage you to pursue your dream. Make sure you're a good dad. It sounds like this relationship has been quite rocky for quite a long time.

I think it'll still be there. It's gone through some rocky situations. I think this could also be a bit rocky at first. But if what you're able to get from it, even financially, it can help the family, I think in the end, that will make it a more pleasant home. Thank you. All right, buddy. Go get your dream.

Chase it on. Fly like an eagle. All right. See you, ma'am. We're awesome. Yeah, I'm awesome. You're awesome. You're awesome.

Everybody's awesome. Yeah, a pretty wild story, huh? I didn't want to start yelling. Jerry, Jerry, in the middle of it, but I had respect it didn't. This is Brian in Oregon. Hey, Bobby. Well, I don't know why I'm whispering, but I just walked by my neighbor's house. And he still has this Christmas.

lights and the Christmas tree up. Christmas tree. Christmas lights, Robbie. He still got him up. All right. Good night. Good night, buddy. Hope you have a good. I'm asleep tight. You know why he's whispering. He's looking in windows. How does he see the Christmas tree? Lunchbox, do you still have your lights out? Lights are still up. It's February 15th. Your lights are still going strong. Has anyone else said anything to you about it? Nobody has said a word. And you're only keeping them up because... Because the guy stopped by, I mean, a month ago, and it was like, hey man, just so you know, Christmas is over and we're having a power shortage and you still got your lights going and that really hit me in the nerves. Do you turn them on at night?

No, it's a timer. Five o'clock. Do they come on at night? Yep. Hilarious. This is up there with Eddie's Snowman from last year. Santa, always to March. How long do you plan to leave them up? Hopefully until March. My wife is getting annoyed with him. She's like, all right, now you've proved your point. Like, can you take them down? I'm like, nope. I don't think you have yet. I don't feel a point being proven yet. Nope. Yeah. I mean, May. About May 1st. Oh, wow. That's a long time. Bobby Ball Show. Here's Amy's pile of stories. Okay, so Bobby Seth Rogan said something that made me think of you.

He said he doesn't understand why Hollywood expects people to care about the Oscars. Quote, I don't care who wins the automobile awards. No other industry expects everyone to care about what awards they shower upon themselves. You know, there is a lot of truth to this and good friend for saying it. The reason that people have cared is because that was the time when you could look at celebrities. we look at celebrities different now. We don't really hold them just speaking generally here to some high esteem,

like, oh, look at these great actors, we worship and adore them. We like our celebrities to be somewhat like us. And the Oscars, they ain't like us. So any award show is kind of a bit too congratulatory now. And they're all starting to be exactly the same, and that's why the ratings are going down on all of them. But I agree with Seth Rogan.

Like, who cares? I'll watch for a minute. Who cares? And they're still giving awards to like the makeup artists and the film editors. You know what? That's who should get awards. That's what the show's all about. Yeah, I agree with them.

All right, what else you got? Okay, so Tinder is bringing back the blind date. So if you're not familiar, it's basically an option on their platform where the users have to talk to each other in a timed conversation with no photos. If the chat goes well, then both parties involved have to kind of live. like each other's profile, and then they get to see each other. So it's now available here in the U.S. if anybody wants to try it out. This is terrible, and I'm going to tell you why, for somebody like me. Because they won't see if, let's say I were single.

Back in the day, I got on Tinder before it turned to like hookup only. Back in the day, Tinder was one of the first real cool. I'm talking seven, eight years ago. Yeah. So I would get on, I'd go like, I'm going to do the blind date thing. I'd be like, oh, I can do a blind date thing. She doesn't know what I look like. I'm afraid she would see me to turn her phone off.

And that would hurt worse than a real blind date where they would have to at least sit there and kind of humor the situation a little bit. It would just be like, nope, swipe out and I would be gone. I would be gone in everyone's. Have I what? In real life, though, have you ever gone on a blind date?

Not through an app. Yeah. Way back in the day, because there's almost no such thing anymore because of social media and you can find anyone. Yeah. Back in Austin,

I had someone at the radio station sent me up with a girl, and it was fine. She was like, I got the perfect girl. for you. And then I walked in and I saw her and I was like, oh, wow, she is cute. And then that wasn't her. She was waiting for her. No. There's something, I don't know. It seems like blind dates. I only went on one myself and it didn't really go that well, but still, it seems like something that before Google and all this, like, it's kind of exciting and fun. And now there's no way you can

avoid looking someone up and finding out so much about their life. I don't want to avoid looking someone up. I want to look. I want to see what's going on. Okay, what else you got? Well, Luke Combs covered Morgan Wade's Wilder Days because she's his tourmate and I've got a clip of him performing it. You say you hate to smell a cigarette smoke. You only used to smoke when you drink. So what they're doing is playing a few stadiums. Maybe four stadiums, maybe three stadiums. Heck, maybe one. I don't know. But they're playing football stadiums and it's Luke Combs. Cody Johnson, Morgan Wade, and somebody else is there too. Zach Bryan.

Yeah. And so what they did was Luke went out to the 50-yard line of these football stadiums and played his stadium partner's song. So it's not like a big tour or anything, but it's a, these are massive shows. So, and Luke Holmes is playing football stadiums. Yeah, that's crazy. Which is amazing for him. All right, is that it, Amy? Yep, I'm Amy. That's my pile.

That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With lunchbox Tell me something good 18 year old Raleigh Silva's driving his car And he stops at the ATM Got to get some cash out

And he sets his wallet on the trunk of the car Why he's using the walk-up ATM Gets his money jumps back in the car Room drives off Gets home and realizes Oh no I lost my wallet Goes driving back

Can't find it Has to tell his parents And they're like You gotta be more responsible You got credit cards in there You got your driver's license in there You got your driver's license in there. Well, then there's this guy Nick walking his dog.

Roof, roof, ruff. Finds the wallet, looks up the address, goes, knocks on the door. No one home. So he hides it behind a little plant. And they see it on the security footage when they get home and they get the wallet back. Wow. Any cash in there? No, no cash because he got it out of the ATM and put it in his pocket.

So Nick didn't get any reward. You ever left anything on your car and driven off? Yes. No way. I knew you would have. Yeah. Yeah. What?

You name it. All it drinks. Oh, yeah. Stuff like that. You ever drive down the road and people were like, hey, there's something on your car, like point?

Yeah, in a parking lot. Oh. Sometimes people will point if I leave the gas, my gas thing open. Yeah. And they're like, hey, or hanging out.

Blah, blah, blah, blah. Once I drove off with the gas thing in the actual pump. Oh, man. A long time ago. Well, two years. And I remember driving off and going,

something doesn't feel right. Kayla's like, what do you mean? I don't know. I feel like I didn't do something and if they're pointing at or driving and I'm like oh my God oh no gas pump

it happens when they point at you do you know exactly what they're pointing at or you just kind of point them back like what uh at first I'm like hey hey you listen to the show yeah big fans yeah

then I realize wait something going on then trying to figure it out and then it hits me but it's like having a flat tire whenever I have a flat tire for a second I think a helicopter's over the top of it

I'm like why is there a helicopter up there but then I realize it's my back time good story lunch bike what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. What do you think is the most common last name in America?

Smith. Yeah. Smith is number one. Wow. In second place is Johnson, followed by Williams. Amy comes in Brown at four. Amy Brown's not common at all. Jones is five, and Eddie comes in at Garcia at six.

Six? Yeah, it's the most, six most common last name. Since my last name is bones, does Jones count for me? Since everybody calls me that. Anyway. All right, let's go over to Amy with the morning corny. The morning corny. Why was the lamb putting time out?

Why was the lamb putting time out? Made some bad choices. That was the morning corny. Speaking about names, I was reading a story about kids' first names and how now, and for the past three to five years, parents have just been naming their kids odd things to make them stand out. but now so many parents are naming their kids odd things to make them stand out that those aren't the kids that are standing out anymore. Now it's just normal to have a weird name and that names like Chris and Matt are the ones that stand out. Wow.

So the reason that you were doing that is now the opposite of what's happening. I was reading some articles similar to this talking about names and how parents get frustrated when teachers can't get their child's name right, but it's like something so bizarre. And it's like, okay, well eventually we'll get there. name's Balthazar. What do you expect her to call them? Or like not even just the teacher, but anybody, like the first try the name and so they get frustrated that nobody can understand their name and say it's like creating problems with their child. And it's like, well, but you, you named your child. Yeah, it's tough because I have some friends that have named their kids weird things, but I guess I don't want to call them out. I was about to go down that

road and I was like, you know, but I'm just not. But Bob, I always thought Bobby was a young person's name. And I thought, you know what, I'll just be Bobby. I'll never be Bob because That's old and lame. Until I was like, I have a young person. Caitlin's like, Bobby, let's look it up. It was like 1913 was one of the most popular. I never knew Bobby was an old person's name. But is it now young again.

Because everything old is now new. I think Bobby sounds young because you assume the old way to say it is Bob. Does Bobby sound young, do you guys? Yeah, no. Why? Bobby. Yeah, I'll take it. Let's move on then.

I told Lunchbox, you can go to California, go to Los Angeles, and for a week audition to be on every single game show. And Scoobo Steve, he used to live there so he could tell lunchbox where to go and who to talk to. Now, we're not going to pay for it, but in a way we are because we're not going to dock your pay. You'll get paid to do the show. Yeah. And you get to go to Los Angeles and try to get on a game show. If you thought about this at all.

I've been thinking about it all. I mean... What's your wife say? I mean, she's down. If I'm going to make money on these game shows, she's like, I mean, that's like double payday. It's a genius move. Double payday. Yes, that's how we're looking at it.

So we have a couple calls here. Valerie and Florida is on. Valerie, hello. Good morning, Bobby. Morning. Good morning, studio. Morning. Unfortunately, if you win, you are responsible for the taxes on everything that you win.

Okay. I mean, so I win $100,000. They take $5,000. Great. It's not the percentage. That's not the percentage, buddy. But, again, it's more money than you started with. But if you want $100,000, they'd probably take $40.

But that's if you were a bonus to $100,000. Hey, you know what? And then let them keep the $40. I'll take $60. Right. That's still getting paid. That's still more money than you went with. That's right.

Yep. What else, Valerie? Well, there's also, there could be multiple taxes. You could have to pay the tax in the state of California, and they also tack on what they call a gift tax. Wouldn't it be lunchbox's luck to go out $100,000, but $0,105? Yeah. All these taxes.

I don't get it. These people that go on these game shows and they say, they win all this money, they don't really win it? They do. There's just some taxes. This is America. They tax things, so we have roads to drive on. So we have police officers to save us when something goes wrong. So we have firemen to put fire zels. So we have schools. Yes, but there are taxes, yes.

Hey, Valerie, thank you for the call. You brought up a great point. All right, see you later. You have a great day. Bye-bye. Here's Julie in Mississippi. Julie went on, let's make a deal. Okay. Julie, how was that experience? It was so fun.

We went out to, it was my daughter. She graduated from high school, and so we went out to, took her out there to try to get on the prices right. But we didn't get on the prices right, but we got on, let's make a deal. What advice would you give lunchbox if he's going to go out and try to get on a show? Not to try too hard would be the main thing. Just kind of be yourself, be natural, just talk to, you know, and don't try it up. You know, just like you would.

If you went to the grocery store and ran into a friend, just be natural and be yourself. Yeah, I'm good at that. I'm natural. Not really, though. Let's go. Let's make a deal. It's kind of over the top, though. He's a little over the top. All right, Julie, I appreciate that call. Ah, y'all have dogs. All right, bye-bye. So, Amy said, hey, there's a casting team that's coming to town.

Amy, you take the story from here. Okay, yeah, this one, you don't even have to leave town. No flights necessary. It's married at first sight. And she wants Abby to go on it. We get Abby on a show. Oh. Yeah. So, I mean, Abby technically, she's the single one, so she's the only one really that could apply for this.

But we have the casting email, so all we need to do is sign Abby up. Lunchbox, would you be jealous if Abby got on a show? I'd be so mad. Abby, would you go on married at first sight if they offered you a spot on that show? Well, I kind of have news in my personal life that would... Wait, you have news? That would not allow me to go on there because I'm not really single. What?

What? Firefighter? Shocker. Wow. Yeah. This segment took a wild right turn. Yeah, good. You're not seeing all my thunder now.

Go ahead. Shoot. Yeah. Not the firefighter. You have a boyfriend? Yes. I actually do. Boyfriend? I mean, what have you been seeing it for a week?

No, I've about it over a month. How did you meet him? That's quick. He actually lives in Kansas. Back home. Uh-huh. And how did you meet? Instagram.

Okay, lunchbox stop. You don't even have to hop into this comment. This is Abby and I. Abby, how'd you meet? He did slide into the DMs, actually. So yeah, I was not expecting to talk about this, so here we... Do you want to pause and talk about it a different time? Yeah, we can another time.

Do you love them? That's a little soon for that. Okay, I like what I'm hearing. I really like him. I like him. Are you sure he's real? Yeah, because he came to visit me here. And I'm gonna go visit this weekend.

Oh my good one. Ready? What? Wow. So yeah, he's real. Lunchbox, you get one, I see you raised in your hand, you get one question, go ahead. So he's a fan of the show, huh? No, that he did not know me, no, like before.

It's complicated. I'll tell you guys sometime, I promise. Okay, and we're not gonna pressure you. Okay. So you have a seat, and you go back to answering the phones. Congratulations. But good idea, Amy. I would have done that.

Would you have gone on, not, love, married to first night, if you'd have a boyfriend? I think it'd be fun. I'm up for that stuff, but. Well, that means you have to get men. have to get married. You understand that? I'm not ready for marriage. She's up for that kind of stuff. That's fun. All right, Abby. Breaking news. Thanks, Abby. Yeah.

Wow. I did not expect a segment to go that way. Yes, Amy. Well, is there anybody we can apply? I just feel like if anybody from the show actually got on that, it would irritate lunchbox so bad. Morgan just goes to do it for a bit. Morgan, you're still with your boyfriend, right? Yes, I am. I don't know what to do here. We got everybody's in a relationship. Wow, everyone's taken. Our last single person just fell to the wayside.

It's a guy It's a picture of just a woods Maybe it's just a video Of just a woods And you hear a guy And he's not talking But 911 is answering And it's like

911 and it says like, oh, he's falling. Yeah, it says Bob has taken a fall. Yeah, it's an Apple Watch. Oh, yeah, I haven't seen it. And they track him and they go save his life. Oh, amazing. And it was a real call, which is pretty cool.

Oh, Bob got paid or whatever his name was. Right. Yeah, Bob, he was unconscious and they said this message will repeat in five seconds. It's a really cool commercial for the Apple Watch. Well, there's another story. Amy Satterfield was relaxing when her Apple Watch showed that her heart rate was high. The 47-year-old own own yoga studio. She's a yoga therapist.

works out every day. She eats healthy, yet her watch said, hey, you're at 126, and normal rate should be 60 to 100. Her husband's a first responder, so they went to the hospital. It turned out that a heart condition that she had had her whole life and didn't know about it had suddenly become a big problem. So they admitted her, she was having heart failure. Her Apple Watch was like, hey, wow. That's crazy. And they're smart enough to go to the, I wouldn't have been. Growing up, we didn't go to the doctor because we didn't have the money to go to the doctor. And now I still live in that a little bit, unless it's my throat. because I got to work.

Yeah. But, and so she had open heart surgery, like, quickly. Does that make you want to wear your Apple Watch? I don't, no, I don't have a watch on today,

but I'm just, it's tough for me to be a watch guy. Yeah. Or they have those rings. You can wear that'll, like, because on billions, a ring detected a heart attack. That's a TV show.

I know. I should have, if I were smart, I'd have these things all over my body because I'm always think I'm dying or something. Yeah. But no, I don't. I wear my Apple watch to work out.

but not for any of the reasons you would think because you would think oh what are you looking at here your heart rate your calories burn no I just want to know what time it is so when it's over I'm just watching the time like how many more minutes while this is over so but that's a great story saved her life

that's what it's all about that was tell me something good it's now time for your big stories Bobby's big stories American Airlines says an unruly passenger is the reason behind a Sunday afternoon diversion I'll be so mad if they made the plane golden lane.

Oh, I'd be so mad. Flight 1775 took off from L.A. was headed for Washington, D.C. They had to land in Kansas City. A passenger aboard the flight told CNN a man allegedly attempted to breach the cockpit and had to be restrained by other passengers as well as hit over the head

with an aircraft coffee pot. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. I'd be honest with you. I wouldn't want to land, but that'd have been fun to see. And they're also at the same time ago,

we should get alcohol back on planes. Yeah, good timing, guys. The passengers all had to be booked on other flights. That would be more annoying. than awesome. But if all that could happen and you didn't have to divert and they could tape a guy to a chair, that would be it. That's a total package.

Those airplane coffee pots, it's like metal. Oh, that's awesome. A woman's kicked off an American Airlines flight for having a nut allergy. Sophie Draper was kicked off her flight for having a severe nut allergy that crew members claim they could not accommodate. She was told the flight was contractually obliged to serve hot mixed nuts in first and business class. She tweeted, I felt totally discriminated against for a health condition

I have no control over. Her boyfriend followed a complaint to the airline over a month ago, but no serious action has been taken. So I wonder if she was sitting in that section, or if riding in coach, nobody can have peanuts. I think everybody on the plane would be okay not having peanuts. I don't think anybody gets upset with no peanuts. I don't know.

I think peanuts are cute and they're fun, but I never get on a plane to go, I can't wait to give me some of those warm peanuts. They come up and I'm like, oh, peanuts. And there's a difference in, God's to have my peanuts. And, oh, peanuts, I forgot. Yeah, that's interesting. That's just peanuts, though.

They're talking about mixed nuts. You're talking almonds. Yeah. Rail mix. Yeah, re-evaluated. Amy, what's your thought on that story? Oh, yeah, no, I was just going to say, yes, the warm mixed nuts, those are nice. But if you say, hey, on this flight, we're going to actually not going to be able to have them because someone might die.

Then people might be like, oh, okay, cool. We won't have our nuts today. Oh, I hate saying that. All right. A Malaysian flight diverted when passengers spot a loose snake on the plane. Oh, oh my God. Okay, land the plane. Yep, yep, yep, yep.

It's just a snake. What are you talking about? It's not going to get up in the cockpit and attack one of the pilots. What do you do with it? Domestic flight made an emergency landing for fumigation when passengers on board the plane spotted a snake on the loose. Oh, no. Air Asia confirmed. But also, it's like Air Asia.

So you expect that? I mean, I don't know. I don't know. I've never been in the Air Asia flight. A video posted to TikTok shows the snake slithering through a light fixture in the overhead compartment. No, no, no, no. The airlines of the staff search the plane for the snake after landing, but it was unclear whether the snake had ever been located. There you go.

They never found the snake. That's even worse. I'm looking at the TikTok here. It's a pretty big snake. It's about six feet long. Wow. Yeah. Looks like it probably was someone's pet.

They shouldn't have had on it and it got out of whatever a carrier had there. Oh, just blow the whole plane up? Yeah, get rid of it. Yep. All right, that's your news. Those were Bobby's Big. Stories. Here are your top three songs in country music this week at number three, and I do love this song. It's Kelsey Ballerini and Kenny Chesney, half of my hometown. Half of my hometown still hanging around.

Number two, Morgan Wallin, sand in my boots. Something about the way she kissed me tells me she loves. And Jimmy Allen and Brad Paisley, Freedom was a highway Number one You know who I've decided I like If they get a bad rap It's Imagine Dragons

Yeah People make fun of them like to do Nickelback And I think just by seeing them I probably would too But a song was on the other day And I was feeling it And I wasn't really paying attention And I was like yeah

Yeah and I looked at said Imagine Dragons And then I said you know what I should stop judging people based on just their looks Yeah Here's Imagine Dragons the number one alternative song right now called Enemy. Everybody wants to be my enemy. This is my song I was listening to.

This is it. Everybody wants to be my enemy. Yeah, it's pretty lame, but I like it. The kids love it. I like it. They do, Amy? Oh, yeah. Yeah, I like that a lot. All right, there you go.

Those are your top songs and country music. All right, Valentine's Day check-ins. Amy, you're Valentine's a night? I spent it with Dustin Lynch. Oh, breaking news. Oh, breaking news. Here we go. Let's go.

Where'd he take you? He took me to the I-Heart Theater in Los Angeles. So, yeah, he had an album release party, and I hosted it. But then afterwards, like, a group of us girls, we all went to, like, a girl's dinner, and it was fun. I thought we were getting the real tea there. I know. We got nothing. Kail and I went to dinner last night.

I had a nice little dinner. I got her nice little gift. Got her some shoes she wanted. I put my phone away, which is probably the best gift of all. Yes. I put my phone away. So I had a nice little eye to eye, no phone, had good conversation. That's what's up. Eddie?

You know me? The same thing every year I went to our little sushi shop, got some sushi, a bottle of wine, I bought a roses, and then we put the kids to bed. We just hung out, watch TV, and just spend time together. Lunchbox? You know, we ordered some to-go food, nothing special, no special restaurant. I just said, hey, what do you want? What are you in the mood for? So we ordered some, what is it, like soup?

Fah, foe. Yeah, foe. I don't know what it's called But yeah, that's what we ordered And we ate it The kids went to bed about 8.30 We watched two episodes of 30 Rock And then night night

Was it anything different than any other night? Ah, we never get that stuff That fah Phah? Yeah, spelled foe Which is what I called it Until my more civilized friends Are like, hey, you idiot, it's fah

Yeah, no, we never ordered that So we splurged on that a little bit But no, it's just a typical night Nico Jackson is back Nico, how are you? Yeah. I'm good, Bobby, thanks for having me. It's been a while since I've been here.

I thought you were mad at me. What? For those that are not aware or new to the show, Nico is one of Lunchbox's alter egos. Yeah, Nico Jackson. I'd like to make some phone calls every now and then. And you name Nico after who? Nico Moon.

The singer. The singer, he came in. I was like, that's a good name, Nico. Where did Jackson come from? I don't know. I just came off the top of my head when I made a call. Well, Nico Jackson called. Sonic, our sponsor here, and said, hey, can I get a reservation for Valentine's Day?

He pranked our sponsor? Let's see how it goes. Yes, ma'am. This is Nico Jackson, and I'm just calling because I want to make some reservations. Okay, we don't do reservations. This is Sonic Drive-In. Yes, ma'am, you know, it's Nico Jackson and my old lady, Sandy. We love to go out to dinner and with Valentine's Day, you know, reservations are filling up fast,

and we just want to make sure we got a spot. Okay, but you don't need to make a reservation. You can just come in order. Yes, ma'am. You know, Sandy, we've been married 52 years. Well, congratulations. Thank you very much. And we like to, you know, I'd like to take her out for a night on the town, you know,

and we get a little chocolate shake. She prefers strawberry, and she likes that foot-long chili cheese dog. Okay. All right. Well, we'll see you on Valentine's Day. You have a good day. No, no, what time do you have available? We like to eat around 5, 5.30.

That's fine. Any time you come. Do you have a reservation open at that time? We don't do reservations. We'll see you when you get here. Yeah, can we do a reservation? Do you put flowers on the table when we make a Valentine's reservation? No, I'm sorry.

Right now our lobby is not open, so we only have the stalls and dry through. We can reserve that for 515. Well, you can reserve it. Yeah, but that's why we're making reservations. We want to make... We can't do reservations. on the cell, sir. Have a nice day. Wait, wait, ma'am.

This is, Nico, do you not believe in love? The poor lady's trying to do her job. You can tell she's trying to get off the phone from the beginning. That's tough. But she stays with you. She stayed with me, but she never said yes to my reservation. I didn't know Nico was like 70. I'm always confused on his age.

I didn't know he was married. Sandy Jackson? Yeah, Nico, yeah, he's been an older guy. He's, you know, just getting up there in age. That's why he talks like this. He's lost a few teeth. The story grows. Yeah, Nico's just an older man, talks a little slower, and just wanted some dinner reservations.

But we couldn't get it. Okay. Thank you, Nico. You're welcome. Have a great day, Bobby. All right.

And Abby's a singer. She's not... She is a singer. Abby loves to sing. She's pretty good at it. She sang with our band The Raging Idiots to a stage of like 5,000 people. She's sang at the St. Jude Marathon in front of 20,000 people. She did her version of the National Anthem.

And now listen to all the stations that are playing it. There's a list. Yeah, there's a list. WR and S Jacksonville, North Carolina. Wow. Q94.5, Bismarck, North Dakota. Country 1073, Poughkeepsie, New York. Thunder Country, 103, 103, Florida, 1037 the Gator, Gainesville, Florida,

105.7 of the Bull in Augusta, Georgia. And her version of the national anthem has been added to media base, giving any radio station across the country an opportunity to add her song. Wow. What on her? This is blown up. You didn't know this? No, I didn't know all that.

We're going to play it in a second, too, for our listeners that haven't heard Abby's version of the national anthem, but Abby has something she would like to say to Lunchbox, who has been very critical of her pursuing not a singing career, but singing just for your enjoyment. Yeah. What would you like to say to them? I mean, because I grew up singing and everything. And like the coolest thing about this is like when veterans call in or active like military

members and say how much it means to them and they got goosebumps and like tears in their eyes. Like that is what's awesome. And that's why like I do this. I think that's why any singer does that to. Like, if you can get anyone's emotion or, like, touch them in any way, that's why I want to. And what I wanted to say to Lunchbox was, like, he always is saying it's a make a wish or whatever. But it's like, it was an opportunity presented to me and I took it.

And I'm like with his acting, let's say like a... Oh, this is a good, good, good. Let me reset. Lunchbox said Abby getting to sing places is like someone granting her a make a wish. That rude, right? Yeah, it is. Yes. And you, did you say that?

Yeah, I said this whole national anthem thing is a make a wish. because she begged a station to play her version. That's what happened. I did not beg. You did not beg. He offered. Now, compare it to his acting career that he's trying to pursue as well. Uh-huh, because he, you know, said he's about to take more acting classes.

But what if, like, a director, like, Stephen Spielberg came up to you and offered you, like, if you wanted to turn in, like, an audition tape, would you do that? Even if you know you're not that great, you would still do it. Yeah, that would be fine. But Stephen Spielberg didn't come to you. You went to him and said, hey, you're playing my national anthem. he's like, no, I've never heard it, but I'll play it, I guess. Like, he didn't come to you because he heard you because you were great. You went to him thinking he had already heard you.

Actually, that's not a true story either. It is. A listener called in and said, Abby Anderson's version's been played on the radio. So I got him on and asked him. And he said, yes, Abby Anderson, but it's a different Abby Anderson. So that's an easy confusion. Yeah, totally. And so he didn't.

So she didn't pursue the station to go, did you play my song? I said, a listener called and said you're playing Abby Anderson. Was it the one? He goes, no, but I'll play it if it's good, and then it's good, and he played it. However, the opportunity comes your way, Lunchbox. Just put all of this other stuff aside. Would you take the opportunity? Yes, what I'm saying is it's not like someone heard it and was like, I have to have that version.

That's what you guys make it sound like is that someone heard Abby. Well, they did. All these other stations did. I know, but he's not setting this aside. He's not answering the question. If Stephen Spielberg came to you and said, hey, I've heard you act. I would love to have you on my movie. Yes, absolutely.

But that's what I'm saying. He heard about how good I was. This guy never heard about Abby being good. Abby, what is your question to him? I mean, I don't think he's going to answer it. He just going to go in circles. He said yes. Okay.

Yeah, but lunchbox, you're not that good. Okay. I don't know what I was going to say that. Do you think you're a good actor? Yeah. Okay. He's red lines on Zoom. He pays $300 a month to take online

Zoom acting classes and that is his extent. That's his acting resume. Abby hasn't paid anybody to sing. You're paying to act. Abby has taken singing lessons her life. She has been paying a lot of money for that. Actually, no, I haven't taken. I don't take singing lessons. Not anymore, you don't. No, I really didn't. She was in a singing group.

Yeah, I just grew up singing, but yeah, I did not pay 300 of... And you know what? I feel like he just brought nastiness out of me. I want to take it back. I don't want to say... You're a bad actor. You're a bad actor. I just Don't appreciate. Havie is a singer or lunchbox is an actor?

Happy as a singer? Yeah. 100%. But he's just so rude to her. It just annoys me so much. Like he can't. I don't know. You guys brought this to me.

I didn't bring this. You asked my opinion. You asked me a question. I gave you an answer. I don't think we ever really asked. She did ask me a question. She just asked me a question. I answer it and you guys say I'm being rude.

At the beginning. I don't think we ever said, hey, do you think she's good? No, you did. You went around and said, hey, what did? you think that performance? That's not that good. You actually went around to everybody in the room and asked their opinion. Not the National Anthem.

It's my point. Not the recorded version. Because it was just good. Yeah, because auto tune and reverb can make anybody sound decent. I would be, you know, I'd be happy for you if you got to do something like that. So why can't you just be happy? Why can't you just be happy for her? It's not taking anything from you.

I'm so happy for you because here's the problem. Okay. She really thinks she's good. That's the problem. The version is great. We're going to play it. Why do you feel like if you whisper that? It makes it last run.

Like she can't hear him. For Christmas, you bought her a book singing for dummies. I was trying to, listen, does she want to get better? Did that book? Did you actually look in the book? Did it have actual tips on how to become a better singer? Did it? I took a glance.

Did it? No, no. Answer the question. Did it actually have real tips? It actually did, yeah. Thank you. That's all I'm going to say. So you guys say, they have taxes for dummies.

They have, that's their little schick is for dummies because it teaches you how to do things. And so that's what I was doing. But you guys see it as rude, but it's actually being helpful. It's like, lunchbox takes energy beans

when he's ready to fight somebody. You can't. Well, it's just like, I mean, I do something nice and it's like taking as mean. You weren't trying to be nice. You weren't trying to be nice. Stop it.

You weren't trying to be nice. Stop that. Wait, would he be offended if I got him acting for dummies? No. No. No, it's just a god. It's just a god.

Help me act better. Abby, congratulations. I would love to see the song chart. Wow. Whoa. Wouldn't that be crazy? That would be awesome. What?

Chart. All right, we're going to play it now. Okay. This is Abby Anderson, our phone screener. Don't do it, lunchbox. Don't do it. Don't do it. Don't do the nasly voice.

This is like, we need to respect this song right now. Her and the song. If you won't respect, you have to give respect. Oh, okay. Well, I'm going to remember that with Amy because she didn't give me respect. I just apologize. I apologize. I felt bad. I took it back. She went, you're not good.

Hilarious. Okay. Here is Abby with the Star-Spangled Banner, the National Anthem. Oh, say, can you see by the dawn's early light? What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars Through the perilous fight Or the ramparts we watched Were so gallantly streaming And the rockins are the bones burst deep preonite

That our flag was still there. Oh, see, does that star-spangled band? Or the leg. Bone show. Don't head. Story of the day. This story comes to us from Wisconsin. Two 20-year-old women were at a restaurant,

and they were sitting there. They ordered their food, and it comes out, and they start going berserk. All because there was a missing hamburger. They forgot the hamburger. So the people are like, hey, calm down. No, you need to fix this. They said, you guys need to leave the restaurant.

So they left the restaurant, came back, and shot one of the employees. Oh, gosh. Well, this was going into the direction of, like, you and how you treat people at restaurants. Exactly. Until they shot the employee. You weren't going to do anyone. You were going berserk because your pizza was the wrong size. You're right.

But. You just didn't shoot anybody. He ordered the large, he said. It's bigger than that. That's not mine. That ain't, I'm not even to look at that. I got the bigger one. Man, when you put it that way, maybe I was gone like these ladies.

So I'm assuming I'm hoping the person that was shot is actually okay. Yes, he is okay. Thank goodness. And it was all because there wasn't a hamburger. There'd be some level of disrespect after that, though, too. Like you don't shoot someone for just not putting a hamburger. There must have been a fight, and he said something disrespectful to her. You think maybe the person taking the order had earbuds on?

Oh, I didn't think about that. Could have been it, too. Didn't understand. Okay. I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day. Now, counting down the biggest good news stories across the lab. Let's go in number three.

Number three. Firefighters in Illinois delivered a baby in the parking lot of a Jimmy Johns when the parents couldn't make it to the hospital in time during a snowstorm. Here is Chief John Stratton breaking down what happened. Once I got him in the parking lot, I opened the door up and started an examination of mama. And notice we're having a baby. I wrapped the baby up, we cut the cord. With the cord, which is cool.

And we took the baby into the ambulance from there. That's crazy that they delivered a baby at Jimmy Johns. I bet they delivered it fast, too. Okay, see, I knew somebody was going to say that. Freaky fast. Freaky fast. Number two. A video is going viral of a grandmother being surprised at Disney World on her 70th birthday by her entire family.
