Wow. That's crazy. It's probably like $15 to lunchbox if we're just comparing it. Because I know you're getting into like, that'd be awesome. Maybe he got a little light on his bike or something. Who? Lunchbox. Oh.

If he added a little more into his bike, that would be the price of him getting his plane. Meaning how much money Bezos has. Got it. So 80 million is wild. So how big of a plane? Yeah, what does it have on there? And also does it like time travel? That would be worth 80 million.

But Jeff Bezos has an $80 million private jet, Amazon founder. They were, it's a Gulfstream G700. I'm trying to, I don't, it gives me a bunch of stuff like mock 0.9. I don't know that stuff. That's real fast. No, I know what it means. I don't know what it means. Fast.

You guys are so annoying because you don't either. And you know what I mean. It has, it's whisper quiet. There are five living areas. What? Including a master suite with a bed, bathroom, and shower, a dining area, a state room, a lounge, and a rest area for the crew. Leather seats lie in the cabin. There are custom finishes and wood features throughout the cabin.

There's an onboard kitchen. He has two other private jets too, but, eh, man, they say this stands above the rest. This is a big plane, like a big plane. Yeah, it's a massive plane. Wow. I don't understand why you need five living areas on a plane. How far can you be going? How long are you going to be on it?

International. Australia. Okay, but two living rooms is not enough? Well, you may have 20 people on the plane to sit in different places. I want to play PlayStation, so I don't know. That's pretty cool if you have to. Yeah, you're over there watching a documentary. 20 people on a plane or your friends.

I love airplane stories, like people going crazy on airplanes. Like, it's my favorite story to talk about. Amy kind of has one, but it's more like weird food on an airplane. The most, the smelliest thing I think I've ever had bored of flight before. Okay, tell the story and then let us guess. Okay, so I'm on a Southwest flight and a guy is getting on the plane and he has like a food container and I can already smell it. And then, you know, sometimes flight attendants like stand in the aisle and they're helping you like get to your seat or whatever. So the flight attendant is right behind me standing, you know, helping people get or she's standing in the row.

And she smells it too. And I'm thinking in my head, don't sit by me. Don't sit by me. And he sits down. Oh, right by you. Yeah. And I mean, it does not take her long to say, sir, did you really bring. that sandwich on this airplane. Like she was really annoyed by it. Because not all sandwich

of steak by the way. Oh no. But this was a Philly cheese steak with onions and smith. No, no, no, no, but no, it was. Like, I'm just telling you, it was so bad. And so, I mean, it just was one of those situations where it was like, okay, what are you going to do? And she even like separated. She's like, sir, you're going to have to like figure something out with that. And she's like, and I'm going to go ahead and go back here to the back of the plane and find a new spot. Wait, they can tell you not to eat a certain sandwich? No, she told him to figure something out with it. But that means, yeah, what he did?

Okay. Okay, you want to guess? Yeah. Okay, he said, oh, okay, fine. I didn't know. I don't fly that often. You can take the sandwich to the back and throw it away for me. There's no chance he did that.

No chance. That's not an option. She told him, hey, we're actually, this is, we were group A. We have some time. You can go ahead and go off the plane, eat the sandwich real quick, and then come back on. No chance. He didn't let you off the plane. No, go ahead.

Not loud. Or he opened it up and scarfed it down faster than I've seen someone eat anything. And then looked at me and the flight attendant and said, the smelly's all in my belly. That's it. That's hilarious. And that's funny. And I like that guy. Me too.

I totally flipped on how I feel about him. Big fan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I need to follow his Instagram because I'm down for the smellies in my belly. It was he. It was C. It was C. Like, I've never seen anything like it.

I love that guy. I hated him for a minute. I love him now. I don't think it was that bad thing. He brought a Philly cheese thing on board. No, no, no. Well, I wouldn't think so good there. I'm sure it's like the whole comment.

And trapped in that thing for a while when you open it, it's probably like all fighting to get out of prison. I mean, the smell was fighting even in the, you know, the little plastic box. He said the smelly is in my belly. No, I think it went more like this. All good now. The smelly's in my belly. I like to subscribe to his Patreon.

Because that's kind of guy I need to follow. Yeah. But just a reminder, don't bring smelly food on airplanes. Was he nice? Yeah, he was nice. Sounds like he's funny as crap. Yeah. I'd watch his comedy special.

No, I'm just a normal guy. I'm totally a fan. The smelly's in my belly. Yeah. He redeemed himself with the comment. Let's get started here. Glad you guys are here. We got a good show.

I'm not lying about that. Good. I'm not lying about that. Bobby Bones. I need help because I'm terrified of. making the wrong move here. I'm an 11th grade high school history teacher. I have a problem with a 17 year old student, pretty good student, but has made it quite clear she's got her sights on me romantically. I've made sure to never be alone with her. I'm afraid if I rebuff her, she'll be hurt and start making

accusations. I'm not stupid. I have zero interest and this needs to stop. But how do I do this? Signed, Mr. A. Anonymous, you are already doing the thing that you need to do. There are two things that I do here. Number one, continue on here. Make sure that you're never alone. Because this situation could get really, if nothing has happened and you don't want it to happen, and we all know somebody when they get that little crazy twinkle in their eye. I'm not saying that's here, but we know crazy when we see one. Sometimes we're crazy, but for different reasons. So you're making the right move. And this doesn't have to be a teacher. This could be any situation like this. Don't be alone. Number two, I would confide in your superior, whomever that is, principal, superintendent. Hey, I feel

this way. I don't want to do anything about it because nothing needs to be done, but I just want this to be said that I know this is possibly in this mind. So if you need to know this is happening, the end. So that's it. Those are the two steps you need to do. This is not going to be the only time this happens, because as I can tell Mr. Anonymous, you're quite the looker. Yeah. Quite the charmer. And people are attracted to lookers and charmers. I just would not be alone with her. There's no real reason to be. And if it comes to a situation, I would make sure someone else is in the room, but not announce it like, I must have some. somebody here because I feel scared.

Yeah. And then I would like a doctor who's a man with a female patient, a lot of times they have to have another, somebody else in the room. Just because. But just you're good. I think what you're doing is exactly right. I would let somebody know though above you. You feel the same way.

And I just send it off to your favorite radio show our podcast. No, no. We do appreciate that. We do appreciate it. Document it elsewhere. Yes. I would document it elsewhere too. But good for you for understanding and being.

aware and making sure that nothing odd happens. We all know an oddball can be an oddball and we can always identify those possible oddballs can't we? Yeah, yeah. They're right on the edge. Sometimes you can't. I sneak up on you. I don't know. I can most of the time.

Thank you for that. These are the highest earning dead celebrities. So just name a few you think. Make a bunch of money. Michael Jackson. Yeah, number one, $600 million. Cause of death. This is interesting. I've never seen the cause of death Listed. For MJ? Just the general of all these.

Like, can you name the cause of death? Overdose. Yeah. Wasn't he injected with something? Yeah, it was overdosed. I think it was like fentanyl, right? Oh, is that what it was? Prophopold.

I don't know the difference in the two. Is that what it was? Okay, so Michael Jackson, number one, $600 million. Amy, number two. Elvis? No, he comes out of $4.50 million. He's doing that a year. Do you know how Elvis died?

Yeah, a heart attack. Good job. Well, he was using the bathroom. Us. He was on the toilet. He was only 42. Yeah. It's crazy once you get beyond the age of people you felt were old, you're like, he was just a young little squirt.

I know. That would be like one of y'all just like... He was just a child. That's true when we were younger. Yeah, we're like 42. Of course, everybody has a heart attack of 42. Okay. Freddie Mercury is at number two at $250 million.

You know who he is, Amy? Yes, Queen. Okay, and how did he die? Mm, good question. I don't know. AIDS. Oh, yeah, I didn't know that. Did you not see the movie?

Was it called again? With, um, yes, the I am robot guy. Yeah, yeah. Mr. Robot. Yeah, yeah. Okay, Dr. Seuss. Is it number 3, 75 million? What do you do?

Wrote books? Correct. He died of? AIDS? Okay. Everyone says. No, cancer, cancer, cancer. Oh, man.

I honestly didn't know that either. No, I didn't know. But she went right back to AIDS. Well, because I was like, that was the last. thing he said so. Okay, right, right, right. Next up, and number five, I'm going to tell you the name. I doubt you know who this is. You'll know if I were to play something. But Rick O'K-O-K-K-K-K-Som. Rick O'Kasik. Rick O'Kasik. Rick O'Kasik. Yeah, I think that's how he say it. Oh, what did you do? He's in the cars. He's in the cars? The car business? No, the band. He's a car dealer. I was like the movie cars. He's gone down in Mitzuigi Dodge.

The cars. Ocasic. The Kors. Was he the lead singer, but? Yeah, he was the lead singer. So he is one of the top dead earners?

What he'd die from? Take a guess. If you say AIDS, just don't say AIDS. Give me a car. Overdose. Cardiovascular disease. But the cars has like,

I give you just what I need it. Just what I need it. Or like. Just as someone to hold. Something like that. Yeah. Now I get it. Ray, do you have any cars?

Like, Mad. She's, Matt. What's the one that goes? Da-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na. Here we go. This is the cars. Or there's the other one, too, I could do. Let the good times roll.

What year were the cars big? 80s? Yeah, right? They're very 80s, right? Yeah, I don't know. Eddie's prom. No. They perform?

and she photographed him the day he died. Mm-hmm. She had an interview. Crazy. Yeah. He was just a kid, 40. Yeah, man, young little whippers. Yeah.

When we were in like 20s, like he was old. You're taking pictures of a guy one day, and then a few hours later, you're like, wait, what? He got shot. I know. That's wild. That's wild. A wind is a one.

He's like, here, would you like my dollar so you can get something to eat? Turns out the dude wasn't homeless. He's a multi-millionaire.

He was evacuated from his condo because there was a fire alarm. So he was just sitting there having a cup of coffee waiting for him to be able to go back in the building. It makes something to say PJs because I thought, what a homeless guy has a different outfit to put on for bed? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

But On Fleck was originally about what part of the human body. Oh, what part of the human body? Your shoes, your feet. On Pleat. Incorrect. On fleak. Abby, you can steal? I'm not going to be able to steal this.

Hey, you're allowed to take a nap because you ain't in it. Wake up. Because you couldn't win. One of the questions we get asked the most in the mailbag, what's the story behind Bobby Bones and Lunchbox? And either their weird names or their stupid names. So not only that, I have this whole story about stage names. and why they are what they are.

Now, there's a lot of controversy with how Lunchbox got his name, but I will tell you that now I just punt to Lunchbox and let him tell his version. But Lunchbox, why are you called Lunchbox? In the third grade, I won a Superman lunchbox from Walmart for school, and my mom told me no. And so I thought, oh, I'll just stick it under my shirt and take it. And so I walked around the whole store, and my mom let me do it. And right as we're about to walk out the door, she goes,

oh, is there something under your shirt? And I said, no. She goes, are you sure? And she goes, knock, knock. and I was like, Mom, I have no idea how that got there. And so she made me go return it to the manager. And then ever since then, they made fun of me. And now that I'm older, I realize how little I was is a third grader.

And so how obvious it was. Like, it was probably sticking out of the shirt. Like, I'd like to commend you for something. I thought he was going to say he was like four or five. He's become such a better storyteller. There are parts of that story that I think he just made up an improv right there. And I commend you. And I'm not going to contradict anything you say.

but I like it. Good job. Yeah. Like knock, knock, knock. That's never happened. Yeah, so she knocked on the lunchbox.

Yeah. She goes, oh, what's that? That's awesome. And he goes, I have no idea how we're out there. Mine is,

I was 17 and I went to work. I begged for a job at radio station, and they hired me to clean, and they never hired me to be on the air. And they hired me to clean and switch out there. Rick D's weekly top 40 on Sundays. And so, before my very first shift,

they fired somebody on the weekends and said, you're up. And I was like, oh, hey. And I was excited, but they said, you cannot use your real name. They said, your name will either be Bobby Z or Bobby Bones. And I thought they were both stupid. And so I went to Bobby Bones.

It sounded more like a pirate or a human or something. Er. Yeah. So that was it. I tried to change it a couple times, but I was always connected to the last place. What did you try to change it to? My real name.

It just always felt weird to be or at least really strive to be authentic on air but have like a stupid fake name it is who i am now i know but in some people they think they're like oh wow is your last name really bones and then knock knock knock him on bones what how did that get there what he's doing there uh post malone his stage name anybody anybody know yeah yeah yeah austin austin so yeah yeah that's his name's austin office but why post malone oh he lives right next to the you know post office he delivers the mail When Austin Post was 14 years old, he needed a name for his mixtape. So he plugged his name into one of those random rap generators, the name generators.

And Post Malone came out. So he's like, that's my name, Post Malone. That's funny. MC Hammer was born Stanley Kirk Burrell, got his nickname from his childhood job with the Oakland A's. The A's owner at the time, Chuck Finley loved him because he was a great bat boy. He danced in the parking lot. And he earned the nickname Hammer because he looked like Hank Aaron. Oh, Hammer and Hank.

Hammer and Hank. Wow. M.C. Hammer. Lady Gaga was born Stephanie Germinada. Lady Gaga adopted her stage name from a song by Queen.

Don't say anything, Eddie. What's the name of the song, guys? Bohemian Rhapsody. No, no. She'd be Bohemian Gaga then. Lady Gaga. Lady of the night. Lady Marmaline.

Interesting. Do you know what? Is it Lady Godiva? No, it's like Lady Gaga. Oh. Radio Gaga. Oh, no. I bet if you heard it, you would know it.

So she chose to pay homage to the band. So Radio Gagai Guys is her name. Elton John. Reginald Dwight. What? Reginald Dwight. Did you hear it? Reginald Dwight!

His name's not Elton? Mm-mm. Oh. So he combined the names of two of his bandmates from Bluesology. A saxophonist, Elton Dean, and the singer, Long John Baldry. That's far-fetched. Elton, John. Oh.

The actor who was born Karen Johnson said that a tendency to break wind led to a number of friends to call her, whoopee. That's funny. Bree Larson from Avengers. Oh, she loved Marie Cheese. Marvel. She was born Brienne. DeSaloniers. I may mess that up. So Bree is obviously for Brienne. But the last name.

Larsonie. Well, first of all, it's just hard to say her name. Oh, it's like a complicated? What is it? I just said de solnir. No one would ever get it right. And so her American girl doll was named Kristen Larson. So she went with the name of her American girl. That's cool. Vend Diesel? It's not diesel.

Mark Sinclair Vincent. adopted the stage named Venn Diesel. because his friends called him Venn for Vincent, and then Diesel was tough and strong. So Vincent, Mark Sinclair, Vincent, Venn, and he was like, I want to be tough. I'll be Venn Diesel. Bruno Mars, Mars sounded bold and energetic,

and the wrestler Bruno San Martino for back in the day. So what's his name? Peter Gene Hernandez. Oh, yeah, that hits different. Or maybe Peter MGM, if he doesn't pay up. Oh, right. They just own his middle name. I'll do one more.

LL Cool J, what does that stand for? Ladies Love. Yeah. Cool James. Correct. So. Did you not know Cool James? No, he just stopped.

I was like. So James Todd Smith. And so that was his name. And they started calling themselves LL Cool J and Playboy Mikey D in hopes that it would help girls think, oh, they're cool, they're in a band. And he said it was just wishful thinking.

It was like calling myself Mr. Awesome. It worked. So LL Cool J was his name. So those are the stories behind Lunchbox, Knock Knock Knock. Knock. Myself. Radio Gougoo. Radio Gaga.

You guys don't know that song? No, man. What about Amy? What's her story? That's her name. I was born this way. Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's Amy Brown.

That was 1999. It's correct. Yes, it was. It was fall semester. No, no, it's later than that. It was fall semester freshman year. We weren't freshmen. I guarantee it.

It was in the dorm. Well, John Hodges and Fred. Do you guys want to do a side bet? I don't think it's not 1999. You said it's 2001. You want to do a side bet? Yes or no. Because I would do a side bet if you guys are both so sure of it.

Because we were also sophomores in the 2000s. Side bet, yes or no? Hold on. Side bet is lose the rates a dead cicada. Hold on. Hold on. I have to think of my... Side bet! Side bet! Side bet! Side bet! Side bet!

Loser eats a dead cicada. Side bet, yes or no. I'm not eating a dead cicado. Then don't take a sidebed. Nashville launches. The Matrix is released in theaters. He already guessed, though. I know. And that's why he's doing it all because I got it right. Oh, he got it right.

1999. Boom! This guy knows his years. He's going to go to this game. John and Fred would sit there and download music overnight. Who's John and Fred? John, the people live across me in the dorm. And Fred Savage.

Wow, I guess I was late to the Napster party. It's time for the good news. With producer Eddie. Yeah, I'm something good. Alvin is a mailman from Dallas, Texas, and he's been doing this for 20 years, but he's also a Marine Corps veteran. So he's at work. He's going through his mailbag, and at the very bottom, he finds these old letters.

He's like, what is this? It's a Christmas card from 1942, which is World War II. Do we think that no one had gotten to the bottom of the bag? I guess there are like so many hamters in like the mailroom or whatever that sometimes the mail just gets lost in those things. What do you call them a hamper?

Hamper. Hamper. But from 1942. And he's like reaching the box. Gee. So he finds that and a bunch of other letters from that same time. He's like, this is crazy.

He looks at them. They're addressed to Mr. Mrs. Henry Lamb of Jacksonville, Arkansas. He's like, these are World War II letters. from a soldier. So he got in his own car on his day off, drove 379 miles, found the people that it was addressed to and delivered to them themselves. Were they still alive? They're still alive. Yeah. I mean, the family, somebody of the family, whoever owned that house, whether it's like a daughter or a son or whatever, yeah, they were in their 80s.

I'm going to be willing to bet that if that mailman wasn't a former veteran, it's a veteran now, but a former military, remember he wouldn't have done that. I don't know. Some male men are good, But I bet that meant extra to him because he had also served. Yeah. And also I hear that like you can get a job as a mailman, that's like the greatest job. Why? Benefits. It's like a government job.

You get all the holidays off. Yeah, but they all seem like they're in a bad mood. Not my mailman. My mailman's like always nice. But people at the post office don't seem very happy. But that's not a mailman. But also sometimes people in line at the post office, the customers can be equally as rude. And the lighting in there's just weird.

But also not a mailman. Those are postal worker. There's a distinct difference there. I'm always weirded out by the male man or male woman, whatever, with the steering wheel on the wrong side. Yeah. You guess they can go to London and just like kill it. I don't think about that. Just like drive like awesome over there.

They feel better driving in the UK. That's a great story. That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good. It's time for the morning corny, but it's investigative. We have 90 seconds to get as many right as we possibly can. The most we've ever gotten in 90 seconds is six. Oh, man, that's pretty good.

Ready boys? Yeah. All right, when Amy finishes the first joke, timer starts. Go. The morning corny. What do you call a guy wearing a hockey mask at the grocery store? Jason. Wayne Gretzky.

Shoplifting. Shopper. Shopkeeper. Oh, goalie. Golly. Mask. You can't do, you can't do clothes. You can't do clothes, Amy.

I was reaching my notes. No, I was something about face. No, I said that hockey mask. I already said that. A hockey mask at the grocery store. A masker? No. Masquerade. Mask. Checkout. Bagger. Goalie mask. Cover face. At the grocery store. Okay. Food for less. Pigly wiggly. Shopper. Shopper mask.

Face mask. So, what do you call? Jason. Jason, where's a grocery mask? He wears a hockey mask. Yeah, he wears a hockey mask. And a grocery mask when he goes to the pigly wiggly. That's what I'm saying. Is there another one that wears a mask? No.

I'm sure. Freddie Kruger? Like Michael Myers wears a mask. Freddie Kruger does it. He does not. It's right. What? Freddie Kruger?

Oh, my God. Is this about Freddie Kruger? Because he does not wear a mask. He does wear a mask? No. Because I thought, Freddie Kroger. Did you write this joke? No.

He doesn't wear a mask. He doesn't. He does. He does. He just scars. No. That's Mike Myers. No, Mike Myers that wears the mask.

This is void. And the Mike Myers mask is actually a mask of, fun fact. Oh, William Shatner? Correct. What? I don't know that. Mind blown. I did not know that.

You know what? You also didn't know? Freddie Kruger does wear a mask. Yeah. Freddie Kroger is funny. Like what killer goes to the grocery store. Ooh. Or like what horror.

Freddie Kroger. That could work. That could work. What a fail. You know what? We had no chance. Well, I guess we'll have to wait till next week. According to his creator,

Freddie Kruger never wore a mask. We don't need his creator. We know his face. His facial expressions were an important element of what made the character's story. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes, I got him mixed up a little bit. Does the joke actually say wear a mask? It does.

The joke that you're reading that you found. So no, Ray. No, Ray, right. Stop. It's his hockey mask. You're lying. No, I'm not. There's no way because Freddie Kruger does not wear a hockey mask.

What do you call a guy wearing a hockey mask at the grocery store? Freddie Kroger. But the hockey mask guy is who? Jason. Yeah, so somebody at Reader's Digest is confused. Well, I like why. People that read Reader's digest are 102 and their mind's wrong. Okay?

We got none, but you know what? That's the dumbest thing. That's a day. It's like you got one though because you taught us about William Shatner. It's like you got one. The middle finger. Oh. Dang.

Oh. It's just fun jokes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good time. Yeah, we're kidding about that one. There's no middle finger. I'm a ring finger. I know.

I know. That's my ring finger. I didn't hold a finger. Any finger, by the way. I held up no finger. I was just kidding. Bobby Bones Show. Boney of the day. This story comes us from California. Police suspected this one guy of being a dealer, but they didn't have any proof.

They're like, how can we bust this guy? They go in his house. They look around. They find a drone. Like, how, that's interesting. They pull out the little cartridge. And the video is thousands of deliveries via drone. He had recorded all his deliveries. He would take drugs. Attach them to the drone. Drug deliveries. That's cool.

Fly it. Meet customer in parking lot. Drop drugs off. Fly back to the house. Wow. I thought Domino's was supposed to do this. I also thought that... Did they need a warrant to get in a drone?

I think they had a warrant. Their whole case goes down because something stupid I sat on the air. No, no, they had a warrant. That's why they were in his house looking, but they found the videos that... You can get in anything. Yeah, and that's why they were like, like, ah. I don't think I consider myself mostly not a bonehead. But I think if I'm running drugs from a drone, I don't know that it comes to me to take the cartridge out.

Yeah. It's still too early in the drone days. I mean, that's so cool, though. If you're watching that, like, wow, dude, he delivered the goods via drone. Like, can't trade because it was unregistered drone so they didn't know whose it was if it fell out of the sky. Black market drone. You know, I'm torn on this one. Don't sell drugs.

Don't. But if you do, use a drone because nobody gets shot. And three, remember, take out your video. I never would have thought of such thing. Okay, all right, good job. Thank you. I'm Lunchbox.
