Starting point is 00:02:20 Welcome to the show. Morning studio. Morning. Okay. So, I don't know. Four or five months ago, lunchbox watched Amy's Sisters TV show. Building Roots on HGTV. Oh, that's right, right?
Starting point is 00:02:33 That's correct. Yeah. So we watched it. We were very excited because, hold on, don't give you a review yet. We watched it because we were excited. that Amy's sister, who we've known forever, who have known forever, got a TV show. Crazy. Just doing their job they already do.
Starting point is 00:02:45 She wasn't like trying to get a TV show. The show is based on their business. In Colorado. So the HGTV was already looking for a Colorado-based design build firm. What does that mean, design build? Like they do, they create the concept for you, design it, and then hire all the construction. They do landscaping. They do interior.
Starting point is 00:03:05 They do from the ground up. They do pools. They do everything. And so he started the company. back in 2003 or 2004 in Austin. And so when they transitioned to Colorado, they found them on Instagram. They're like, we like your stuff.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Would you do a TV show? And the whole process took like four years to come to fruition. It was not overnight. Happens. Yeah. Goes on. Lunchbox reviews.
Starting point is 00:03:24 It says, I don't like to show that much. We're like, your opinion, okay? Life goes on. Show finishes. Lunchbox is, I got an idea. Because we had a hole in his roof. Have them come rebuild my house. Correct.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Because I had a tree branch fall. I had three holes in my ceiling. And I was like, look. this show needs some ratings boost. If they want to come do... You don't know what the ratings were. But I know it'll be better with me on it because their personalities are not very good.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Why do you keep doing that? Okay, go ahead. I'm just telling you that this is how it came about. And so I was like, guys, what you need to do is come fix my house, put a celebrity on TV, and boom, you'll get a second season. Well, then we told them,
Starting point is 00:04:01 when people do those shows, they have to pay for their own stuff. And I said, I'll take out a loan. Okay, so then we're here. And then it turns into what? It turns into, you hooked him up with the producer. Well, so the producer heard the segment because my sister, like, I guess, and I was like, hey, here's this.
Starting point is 00:04:18 And they were dying laughing. She emailed me. She said, his lunchbox serious. I'd like to talk to him. So I sent Lunchbox her contact info. And then they talked. Oh, boy. So.
Starting point is 00:04:27 Who? Casting director. He taught, well, he talked to a producer. Producer and a casting person. They're all in. They love me. They absolutely want me on their show. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:37 And so we're in negotiations. I don't even really know he talked to the casting director. Oh, yeah. Like, she's like, oh, my gosh, can you email me, blah, blah, blah, details, some pictures. I mean, she is, I mean, she loves me. I love your story. You're so good. You would be, you'd be the A segment on it.
Starting point is 00:04:52 She said to that. She said the A segment? Yeah, oh yeah. Like a segment or a no, no, no, no, no. A segment. I know, but still then, but you think she meant O or A. I think even if she meant A, do they feature two people? Yeah, so they have a main, they have a main, they have a main,
Starting point is 00:05:09 thing and then they have a side project. But I'd be the main. That's what they told me. I'd be the main. And you're going to take out a loan to do this? Absolutely. Just to be on TV? Be on TV, guys. I told you guys, I need to be on TV. So, you didn't know that they had contacted him back? I knew that he had talked to the producer. They've emailed me like three times. I knew that a casting director is obviously involved in the process, but I didn't know he had already had that conversation.
Starting point is 00:05:34 So here we are. This is breaking. Hey, breaking news! Break your news! There you. Hey, so what do you think is going to happen? Oh, I think they're coming. I think they're coming to my house. We're going to do something. I mean, I'm going to find a loan officer somewhere. And I guess at a bank.
Starting point is 00:05:48 I think he's a lone shark. Oh, yeah. Can I throw a wrinkle in here kind of? Yeah, please, please. Okay. So I already know that they had castings for other people in Nashville. Like that because that's how shows work. And they have all kinds of submissions for like the main thing.
Starting point is 00:06:06 And so also, I am being concerned. considered. And so I wonder if they're trying to choose between me and Lunch Fox for the B segment. No, no, no. They told me I'd be A. So what if they say you're B? I don't want to do it. I need to be the main. So you're going to walk. You're going to, you're saying it right now. Yeah. Because we're going to send this to the producer. If I'm B, I'm out. If you're B, you would be, what if I'm A and you're B and we're together? Amy, let me tell you. They're not considering you for A. You're telling Amy, they're not considering. Yeah, they already told me. I don't think I have a big enough project.
Starting point is 00:06:39 They already told me it could only be a B, so we need an A. Well, maybe I got a little work I can have done. Oh, I can't pay for it, huh? Never mind. I'm all good. Yeah. So, Amy, I mean, I don't want to hurt your feelings, but you're B. Yes, I have to pay for it, even though I'm a sister.
Starting point is 00:06:51 You know, you'm on a level. Yeah, it's like, this is work I would consider having done anyways. Not me. Not me. You don't even care about the work. I don't even care about the work. You have a hole in your room. I want to pay to get on TV.
Starting point is 00:07:03 Okay. Okay. You can do buy public access time. No, it's not as good for her. Okay. I mean, how great would this be? Well, I'm intrigued. Well, so guess what?
Starting point is 00:07:13 I have a call with the casting director today. You're going to say A or I'm out? I don't know. I already told you, you're not A. I'm telling you. What if it's a different episode? We've already gone over it. What if it's a different episode?
Starting point is 00:07:25 Yes, Amy. Amy's waving her hands at me for some reason. I don't know why. I just think they're doing so it's a Colorado-based show, obviously, and they're kind of maybe going to do an episode in Nashville and maybe an episode in Austin, because that is like those are two cities they thought would be interesting. So I don't know.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Now I'm nervous that there is a different A and Lunchbox and I are fighting for B. No, no. Amy, I am telling you that you are B and I am A. Like I have already had these conversations. Okay. Like I know you don't want. I mean, you are ahead of me in this all process. I know because I'm A.
Starting point is 00:07:55 Okay. I don't know what to say here. Yeah, I don't either. Hey, watch me on HGTV. That's what I got to say. Hey. Let's go. Okay. How cool is this?
Starting point is 00:08:03 We know Lunchbox just jumps. the gun and doesn't really... Oh, yeah. He was looking for houses in L.A. Yeah. Exactly. So I can't really trust him right now. And like, how much does he think? Like, because he has a lot of work that needs to be done. Yeah, what is that going to cost you? Yeah. I don't know. They'll talk to the loan shark. You don't care? No. Get a loan, man. That's what they're I mean, that's what loans are for, aren't they? Yeah. Okay. Well, there's that. I did not know I was going to get into that. But this is exciting news. Yes, it's pretty cool, huh? It's exciting news. A for lunchbox.
Starting point is 00:08:33 and maybe be for me. Or be, you have to be on the show at your sister. What if Amy gets on and lunchbox doesn't? I'm going to feel bad. Drama. Hey, ratings dip. Well, maybe lunchbox you could stop by. Hey, I brought your cookies.
Starting point is 00:08:48 He's the uracle of that episode, the neighbor. 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, Bobby Bones. I'm very fortunate that I have a mother-in-law that I get along with. Sometimes I think my husband's family is just too close.
Starting point is 00:09:10 They're pretty much together every Sunday for dinner, especially in the summer. And while I love our time together, it can get exhausting. I'm a working mom, so I just want to spend my Sunday nights doing nothing. But instead, we load up in the car. We drive half hour to his parents' house for dinner. And I'm usually put to work the minute I get there. I'm always helping with something. Now, I don't want to stop doing these dinners, but I would love if it maybe wasn't every
Starting point is 00:09:32 Sunday. How do I break this to my husband and his family? Am I being unreasonable to not want to continue these family dinners every week? How would you handle it? This is a cue from Katie. That's how she signed it. Eddie, I'll go to you on this one first. This is a tough one, man. I think you've been married the longest of anyone here on the show. Yes, and I relate to it in a weird way. And it took me some distance, because my family's the close one. For sure. I mean, when we live down in Texas, my family was over. They would do surprise visits, even like just show up. from out of town and stay at the house.
Starting point is 00:10:04 That's not a knock and stay for an hour of surprise visit. No, no, no. And my wife was like, look, she was very vocal about it and would tell me that she wasn't comfortable with that. And she would like a little bit of space. And I really didn't get it until we moved away and my family wasn't in the same state. And then I realized, dang, we were pretty close. So maybe in this scenario, they just need to talk about it. She needs to talk to her husband and say, hey, I'm just not comfortable with us.
Starting point is 00:10:28 Can we just move it to once every other week or once every two weeks or something? Really, it's a hard egg to crack, but once everything's out in the open, I think it'll work out. So you're saying go for it, experience the uncomfortableness, and it will be uncomfortable for a while, but what you're getting from it long term is better than the short term uncomfortableness. Bingo. That's how I feel about working out. I hate it. It's uncomfortable short term.
Starting point is 00:10:53 I hate it. But I get more from it long term, right? Yeah, you're always glad you did it. That's a tough one, though. I are my in law is living in their state right and right now we've been married a year they're awesome and maybe it's because they live far away maybe it's because we only see them when it's but we I spend enough time with them and I text with them and like I'm text with Caitlin's dad all the time about sports he's a big oh you football guy big Arkansas I don't know
Starting point is 00:11:20 I feel like they're pretty awesome so I don't feel like I can speak on this other than that I would agree with Eddie's sentiment that sometimes short-term uncomfortableness is good for long-term growth. And that's with so many things. Right. Yeah. And I get it because, you know, that's culture. I mean, that's just the way his family works. He's going to be offended.
Starting point is 00:11:40 By the way, he's going to be upset when you bring this up. And he's going to react in a way that's not going to be positive. He's going to like, what? You know this is. But sometimes, and I say this because Caitlin has to do this to me because I do that. I react in a ways. If I get my reaction all out and then I call. Calm down and then I go to sleep and then I wake up and I'm like yeah, I'm kind of an idiot
Starting point is 00:12:01 You know, I think I can't fully go to what you're saying But I can I can definitely lean into that little more. You're right about that. I think that could probably happen here Yeah, but yeah, I get it and you can let them know you're tired. You have the kids. I mean you have everything So maybe it's three weekends a month. Yeah, there are all these negotiations Yeah, everything's a negotiation. Start small and see where it goes Mm-hmm and or just go every Sunday, but you do no help that's not going to fly you just want to eat
Starting point is 00:12:28 all right thank you for the email good luck with this we appreciate you sharing that with us and that's the mailbag close it up we've got your email and we read it on the air now it's about to close
Starting point is 00:12:39 Bobby's mailback yeah parenting with Eddie who has four kids yeah it's four boys four boys and they're between the ages of 13 and
Starting point is 00:12:48 zero three it's the youngest yeah zero you know all in between and so you're going to make them all do their own laundry now. Oh, I'm over it. But I thought that was your thing now. I know. I'm over. I am now delegating it to them because I have one son who changes four or five times a day.
Starting point is 00:13:05 That's a lot. Ridiculous. So he just gets home and he's like, ah, I don't like this shirt. He takes a shower. He's like Riba. Yeah. He just shows up and goes full Riba. He thinks it's a show. It's not. And I'm, I'm over it. And my teenager, him too. He lets his laundry get out of control. And he doesn't, no one helps me. It's me folding clothes all day. So here's what I'm going to do. I'm buying them all. I'm buying them all. I'm buying them. I'm separate laundry bins. So the 13 year old, 14 year old has his own. The 7 and 8, they have their own and the baby has their own. And I'm going to do the laundry. Hey, I'm not giving up completely. I will put it in the washer.
Starting point is 00:13:36 I will dry them in the drying machine. And then I will... Drying machine, whatever. The dryer. Okay? And then I will pull it out in a big, big, big pile and throw it in their room. And they're in charge of folding them and hanging them up. You know what the room's going to be full of, right?
Starting point is 00:13:51 Laundry. Laundry that's not been folded and has not been hung up. No, it's not acceptable to not have your laundry put up. But also with your 14-year-old, like, he can start doing the whole thing. I agree, but I mean, baby steps. To me, it's like... What do you do the baby? You can throw us a three-year-old?
Starting point is 00:14:06 Hey, kid. He's got to learn early. Does he? Yes. Maybe you give him like three things and he has to fold it. Like three shirts? Yes, like three things. You teach him how to do it.
Starting point is 00:14:14 Okay. Yeah. But he's like doing the whole, you know, potty training thing. So he's got a lot of dirty laundry too. But that's, again, not his fault. Yeah. You're blaming the three-year-old. He's a baby.
Starting point is 00:14:23 Good call, good call. Yes. So what does your wife say about this? She thinks that they're going to not care and they're going to look like just wrinkled. Oh, they are. But that's not my problem. Yes, it is. I think I'm teaching them bones that if they want to look wrinkled, then you're not going to have a lot of opportunities.
Starting point is 00:14:39 It's almost like when you talk to lunchbox and say, hey, man, you don't dress right. Like, you're not going to have opportunities. This is a lesson for them saying, hey, if you're not looking right, no one's going to take you serious. Yeah, they're kids. I don't care. Dang. Good luck with the science experiment. but you're going to throw it in the room,
Starting point is 00:14:54 it's never going to leave the floor, and they're going to grab stuff and put it on from the floor and throw it right back in the floor, and then it's getting mixed up, the dirty, the clean, they have to wash it all again. Unless there's consequences
Starting point is 00:15:01 for not putting your clothes away. That's what I'm saying. No dinner. Okay. Say we've already gone. No, I like this. We've got to be tough. Okay, and before Eddie gets in trouble about a law,
Starting point is 00:15:10 we're going to go play this song. Eddie, good luck with that. Yeah, thanks. All right. It's time for the good news. Yeah, home there's something good. 11-year-old Eva Burke from Maine. She celebrates her birthday.
Starting point is 00:15:24 birthday, but she doesn't do it like most 11-year-olds do. She asks not for presents, but for her friends and family to donate backpacks. So she gets all these backpacks, and she delivers them to community students that are going back to school. Last year, she got 130 backpacks. This year, she has collected over 200. Wow. I mean, kids don't do this, guys.
Starting point is 00:15:44 What would you do if your kid came to you and said, Dad, I want to do it? Instead of my birthday, I don't want to go to whatever place. I don't want a gift. I want to donate. Bones, I would cry. I would cry and give them the biggest hug, because. because my kids would never, ever think of this. Like, they would never.
Starting point is 00:15:58 They have a list of 20 toys before they would think about donating them. Do you put any of that blame on yourself for not prioritizing others? And that's how your kids often learn and accept truth from their parents. I don't know what you're trying to say here, but no. No. Dude, I'm telling you, when they're in the car, I try to help, I try to pull over and help people that are stranded on the side of the road. I try to be an example in front of them to show them, hey, you need to be. to do things for other people, but this is not sticking
Starting point is 00:16:26 to them. So when I read stories like this, I'm like, gosh, I wish my kids were like Ava. That's awesome. Ava, great job. Eddie wishes you were his kid. I do. I do. That's awesome. That is a great story, and that is what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. Elder versus Millennial. Eddie,
Starting point is 00:16:44 Eddie, how old are you? 43 years old. I'm an old man. Ray played that music loud on my ears. I got out. Morgan, how old are you? I'm 28 years old. You guys have your buzzers? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:53 Eddie, ring your buzzer? Okay, that's Eddie's buzzer. That's you, same poo-poo-pipi. Morgan? What is that? It's Kim Possible. I've never heard that in my life. It's like the best millennial show ever.
Starting point is 00:17:04 Eddie, that's why you are elder. That would make sense. All right, Buzz in if you know the answer, your goal is to steal the other person's questions. The first question is an elder question. What television personality has been the hostess of Will of Fortune since Eddie? That's Vana White. Correct. Vanne White. Ever heard of Morgan? Yes, but I was thinking of the guy's name.
Starting point is 00:17:30 He said hostess. I know, but I was thinking of the guy. What's his name? I don't know. Pat Sejack? Millennial question. What television personality has been the host of ridiculousness for 20... Morgan.
Starting point is 00:17:47 Rob Deer Dick. Correct. Wow. Excuse me? Yeah. Who is that? Elder question. It has a clip.
Starting point is 00:17:56 Here's a song. Eddie's ringing in without knowing the question. Go ahead. That's Michael Bolton. When a man loves a woman was the number one song for what artist in 1991. Yeah. It's Michael Bolton. Millennial question.
Starting point is 00:18:17 It is a song. Here we go. The Way featuring Mac Miller was a song. Morgan. Ariana Grande. Correct. Wow. From What Artist's debut album in 2013?
Starting point is 00:18:39 Dang. Dang. Yeah. Got it. Two to two, nobody's stolen anything yet. Elder question. What was Jody Sweeten's character name on? Eddie?
Starting point is 00:18:53 That's Stephanie. That's correct. Eddie rolled in this categories. Morgan, you're up. You got to get this one to stay in. I know, I know. What was Aubrey Drake Graham's character's name on Degrassi? Aubrey Graham, Drake.
Starting point is 00:19:14 What was his character's name on Degrassi? I'll let her miss this one. Do you know it? No. Because I don't know it. No chance. Oh, man. Morgan?
Starting point is 00:19:30 Michael. That's incorrect. Eddie? I'll guess Drake. Drake. No, Drake. Drake. Drake.
Starting point is 00:19:36 No, Drake. No, Drake. No, Drake. No, Drake. No, Drake. No, Drake. No, Drake. No, Drake.
Starting point is 00:19:38 No, no, Drake. The answer is Jimmy Brooks. Eddie is the elder Eddie is the winner Which by the way Eddie you're the champion, that's five That's five? That's five? Well, let's go!
Starting point is 00:19:58 We've been giving Morgan shows from back in our day to review Morgan, you're how old? I am 28. And so you'd never seen Beavis and Butthead. Never seen Beavis and Butthead, nope. It got the lowest score of all that we've given her. It's terrible.
Starting point is 00:20:12 A 0.5 out of five. The Goonies did terrible on her list. It got two out of five truffle shuffles, which I thought was a bit low. Seinfeld also pretty bad, 2.5 out of 5 jackets. Austin Powers, 1 out of 5 groovy babies. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Now, some of the ones that she liked, Back to the Future, 4 out of 5 Dolorians, the karate kid, 4.5 out of 5 Cobra Kise, Shawshank, 5 out of 5. So she's not being a hater to all the stuff from our day. But I had her watch Bill and Ted's excellent adventure. It's Keanu Reeves. If you ask me, his finest work.
Starting point is 00:20:50 Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's his finest work. So Morgan, this moved from 1989. It gets an 81% positive on Rotten Tomatoes. But what does Morgan the millennial give it? Well, it started out so cheesy. And I was like, oh, it's from 89!
Starting point is 00:21:04 Listen. Yeah. Oh, great. Like, this felt like it was going to be Beavis and Butthead in real life. That's the first 30 minutes. They're like, bro. I was like, dude. Yes.
Starting point is 00:21:13 Yeah. Very stupid. They're playing an air guitar. I don't really care about life. Yeah. Right? So the first 30 minutes, I'm like, this is going to be the stupidest movie ever. But it started to pick up when they started picking up the history characters and there
Starting point is 00:21:26 were this whole adventure. And I actually really enjoyed it when it came to all the history characters, like living out in real life. That was my favorite part. So great. Be thubbin. Yeah. I thought that was a really cool concept.
Starting point is 00:21:40 I would love to see history characters actually in real life now. So I ended up really liking it And I give it 3.5 out of 5 phone booths All right, we'll take that That's pretty good So that was my favorite movie from much of my life Loved it still one of my top five ever Because I enjoyed it and learned so much about it
Starting point is 00:21:59 And it even inspired me to learn about Joan of Arc A little bit of Beethoven Although I'd never got that classical music But Socrates, all of that So I think even for when I was young That was not only a fun movie But it kind of secretly made you learn stuff. So, and that's why
Starting point is 00:22:16 I loved it so much. And I loved it. 69. I mean, that's how I felt. But that's the root of 69. For me, I know whatever it says, but that was always funny to me as a kid, not even know it. So yes. Bright, you thought it was cool? Yeah, that's how I felt. I was like, I would like to watch this movie and enjoy history this way.
Starting point is 00:22:32 I would probably have learned more in history class if it was like that movie. All right, we're going to assign you a 3.5 out of five for Bill and Ted's excellent adventure. And so now we assign her something else and we give her a few weeks to watch. Here we go. No rush. But Morgan, have you ever seen the movie Stand By Me? Oh, so good.
Starting point is 00:22:49 No, guys. I mean, not good. No, no, no, no, don't have you ever seen Stand By Me? I don't think so. Who's in it? You've never seen it. Jerry. What's his name?
Starting point is 00:23:00 Jerry O'Connell as a kid. Corey Feldman? Yes. Not ringing a bell. So I don't think so. Nothing. River Phoenix. Nothing?
Starting point is 00:23:09 Nope. Stand by me. 1986. You were born what year? 1993. Okay. So it came out, wait, way before, you were born. It's only an hour and 29 minutes.
Starting point is 00:23:19 I like a short movie. Train! Is it a comedy or sci-fi? What's the vibe of that movie? It's not sci-fi. I'd say it's about life. Yeah. The genre?
Starting point is 00:23:31 Life. So like Shaw Shankredemption, maybe? No, we're just going to say that. You guys are not giving me a genre here. Yeah, we're not. So here's what we're going to do. We're going to have you watch Stand By Me. We're not going to say anything about it.
Starting point is 00:23:44 it. We don't, we're not going to tell you if we think it's good or not. Are we guys? No, we're not going to say anything. Nothing. Done. You guys reacted. Oh, so good. Sorry, dude. You just say it and it hits me. Yeah, it does. It hits me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. The genre is life. And I don't think that's a movie genre, but we're going with it. Hey, it will be. It will be the Euro scene, Morgan. And then we'll check in with you in a few weeks or so. All right. You accept the challenge? I do accept it. All right, there she is. Morgan. She will watch Stand By Me Next after she loved Bill and Ted. A school in Georgia was on lockdown. They thought there was a gun,
Starting point is 00:24:20 but actually it was one of those massage guns. Oh, like a theragun. Yeah, that your daughter was taking to school. Yeah, she was charging people a dollar a minute. The student questioned a minute he had the massager and pointed it at another student, but police confirmed it was nothing. No physical harm.
Starting point is 00:24:35 But they're glad that somebody said something. Yeah. Because you always want to say something, even if you're wrong, better than not saying something. Right. So Fox 5 Atlanta had the story. I just thought of your daughter.
Starting point is 00:24:44 Is she going to try that in high school now? I don't think so. We'll see what happened. So much money. I'd pay for that. Like if somebody showed up today, I was like, hey, we're going to check out the gun? Oh, I sure would, Eddie.
Starting point is 00:24:52 Thank you. Oh, one dollar a minute. I'd be like, dang, you got me. There you go. It's a dollar. Venmo, Eddie. That's a dude right. Here's Amy's pile of stories.
Starting point is 00:25:01 Some kids started school last week. Some are starting this week. Some are the following. So a teacher is speaking out about what parents should not do with teachers. She's a send. their drugs and their backpack with their kid. That happens a lot. Yeah. That didn't make the top five, but I'm sure it's on there.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Okay. Okay, so don't call for a meeting with them without explaining why it's meted. But some parents, they just, you know, want to talk to the teacher. But maybe you say that, though. Give them specific. This is a general meeting. I like to catch up on the overall body of work that my child is doing. Yeah, that sounds normal.
Starting point is 00:25:36 But at least you can say that. Yeah. And then they'll decide if they want to meet with your not. Don't try to be friends with a teacher. Like a quick high. do. You don't have to stop them and talk about a lot. Don't believe that your kids' complaints are, you know, factual without hearing the teacher's side of things. Don't reach out to the teacher unless there is something they absolutely need to know. And then when you give them
Starting point is 00:25:55 gifts, skip the cliche coffee mugs and apples, et cetera. Try to be different. What do you think, Eddie, she gave all these things. You got four of them. Man, you know what I do when I'm with the, we meet the teachers? I follow on Instagram. So now I want to be friends with them. And look, if I need a meeting, there's no meeting. Just DM. Hey, hey, my son said this. Whatever. they DM back. That's how it works. Whoa, do you ever see anything? Like, you don't feel like you should see a teacher doing? That's another reason why I follow them. I want to see how risque they are outside of the classroom.
Starting point is 00:26:22 That sounds weird. Well, no. Guys, it's for my kids. That's for your kids. Your wife walks in. No, no, no, no, it's for the kids. Amy, what else you got? Have you ever had to quit a job before?
Starting point is 00:26:35 Yes. But, I don't know. Yes, I've had to quit to move to other jobs. jobs. Yeah. Well, but you've always kind of been in radio. You've been more so advanced. No, I had to quit a roofing job.
Starting point is 00:26:49 I had to quit my job at the marina. I had to quit working at a restaurant, but always to do something else. Okay. And go, hey, I got to go. I got to move. Well, four and five of us have quit a job before, and I have the top reasons why you might want to leave. Boss sucks.
Starting point is 00:27:05 Radio jobs better. You want your career. Oh. I quit a job to come work for you. Yeah, go ahead. And that was not easy for me to do. Co-workers are no good. Schedule is awful.
Starting point is 00:27:18 I got a better job offer. It doesn't pay enough. And bad boss or bad management. Well, three out of five for you guys. And then I also decided to look up like if you're trying to quit and how you can do it gracefully, you should definitely do it in person. Make sure you give two weeks notice, write a letter of resignation, you know, set the employer up for success and then write a goodbye email to coworkers. Yeah, most times that didn't happen. Most times you don't like it.
Starting point is 00:27:42 because you leave it and you don't like them. And it is good, though, to be cool. Be cool. Don't talk trash. They will get a call going, are they good? You know, that always comes back. Yes. What else? Darius Rucker is having to speak out against scammers that are posing as him on social media.
Starting point is 00:27:57 He said that his team of people has to shut down over 200 scams a month. And so he's like, hey, guys, if you think you're talking to me, my family, my crew, or my band, you're not. We are not talking to you. He said, it's got to have a blanche. food check mark. It's not him and they are shutting them down as fast as they can, but they keep hopping up. All right. I'm Amy. That's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With Bobby. Tell me something good. When 17-year-old Fallon O'Regan noticed his apartment building where he lives and Pennsylvania was on fire, he was like, all right, I got to help people.
Starting point is 00:28:37 He and his downstairs neighbor Robert moved a nearby trampoline over to the apartment so residents trapped on the third floor could jump onto the trampoline. So smart. Ballin says some of his neighbors first tossed their dogs, partially just to see, partially to save the dogs. That was the test, the dogs? Well, they were like, I got to, you want to, yeah. You know, what was true intention? A test would save the dogs.
Starting point is 00:29:04 But the dogs were okay. They landed. One person did hurt their leg during jumping. You almost got to jump and then like, like. Yes. Break your fall. Otherwise, you're going to go, boi-in, then back up into the window again.
Starting point is 00:29:16 You never want that. You jump down, you're like, I'm free, d'oing, right back in. But it mostly helped other than the one person to hurt their leg. Several residents had to be taken to the hospital for smoke inhalation. All 18 people were displaced by the fire,
Starting point is 00:29:30 but nobody died, and the outcome could have been so different had they not pulled the trick. It just sounds like a cartoon, right? It really does. It sounds like a three stooges, something. I'm picturing them all jumping
Starting point is 00:29:39 and then doing flips and little backflips and doing tricks while they're jumping. Getting their TikTok views up. Like, film this. Fallon O'Regan and the neighbor Robert, good thinking. Good thinking. Got that trampoline out there and everybody's rocking it.
Starting point is 00:29:51 All right, that's good news and that's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. With Air Tasker, you can check off anything on your to-do list.
