Starting point is 00:02:53 So since 2011, the lifespan of one of these has gone from three years to eight years. What is it? We're going to play Never Gonna Get It. No, you're not going to get it. Not this time. No, you're not going to get it. Never, never, never, never going to get it.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Oh. All right, since 2011, the lifespan of one of these items has risen from three years to eight years. Let's bring on Eugene. Eugene's going to have a chance here to win. Hey, Eugene, how's it going, buddy? It's going good. How are you doing? Yeah, real good.
Starting point is 00:03:22 Appreciate your calling. Where are you calling from? I'm calling from Texas. All right. Eugene's going to be exact. Great. Eugene's going to have a shot here. The question, Eugene, you get to answer by yourself first, but if you miss it, it does not mean you lost.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Since 2011, the lifespan of one of these items has risen. from three years to eight years, what is it? So think about that, Eugene. You get to go first. Back in 2011, we started this. Lifespan was three years. Now it's eight. What do you think it is?
Starting point is 00:03:52 Lifespan. Yeah, since I do it one more. No hint, huh? Not yet, but the show's all going to answer too. So you're going to have multiple chances here. But since 2011, the lifespan of one of these items has risen from three years to eight years. What is it? An animal, well, I would say a dog.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Okay, a dog. Okay, big growth and dogs here. Okay, it's not a dog. That's okay, yeah. Strike one. We put them on the spot. We put them on the spot. Okay, Eugene, now, everybody on the show has written down an answer.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Amy, how do you feel? Not good, just being honest. It's a hard one, yeah. Lunchbox? I feel great, 100%. We're really good. Morgan? I don't feel good at all.
Starting point is 00:04:32 Eddie? I feel great. Like, I have this one. Yeah. Eugene, if you pick the person on the show that gets it right, you win. So you get to pick two show members here to represent you. Now you've heard them. Who do you pick? Let's go with lunchbox and Miss Amy.
Starting point is 00:04:45 Oh my gosh. Wait, Eddie, Eddie said he was confident. I don't think you heard you, Eddie. Like, Eugene, I said I really know this one. Yeah, what's up? Eugene, do you want to trade and switch to Eddie? Eugene. Okay, let's switch out Miss Amy for Eddie then. Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Miss Amy, I love it. You guys have convinced them. Okay, Eugene. Amy, since 2011, the lifespan of one of these items has risen from three years to eight. What did you put Amy? Relationships. Okay. So just being in a relationship. Marriage. Okay. Well, probably dating.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Dating. It can be anything. Got it. Eddie? Oh, this is easy, dude. I have cell phones. The lifespan of a cell phone is way longer than it used to be. How long? I'm not saying if you're right or wrong. I was just thinking, how long do you keep a cell phone? I've never had one for eight years, that's for sure. Yeah. Eight years? No. But three, I have.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Three, yes. But. We trade them out. though because like they're upgrades but if we kept the phone we have great years. Also it stays alive even with somebody else. Absolutely. Interesting. Morgan. I was also in the electronic range but I feel like the phones go out but TVs don't. TVs stay for a long time now. Morgan's chosen the television. Interesting. I have the same TV my whole childhood. Yeah. TVs. Those were hard for. They last year. They weren't they weren't upgraded. Oh so smart TV. Yeah there's always new technology now. Back in the day you just got a show.
Starting point is 00:06:11 She's like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Lunchbox. Man, you guys were right on the right track because it's cell phone! It's cell phone! What sucks for Eugene now? He only has one answer. But we nailed it, so it doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:06:27 No, I don't think y'all did. I think we did. I think we did. Lunchbox is 100% sure. Yeah, we got it. Where are you on the percentage, Eddie? 100%. Yeah, but cell phone came to my mind right away,
Starting point is 00:06:38 and I'm like, that's normally not the answer, the obvious easy one. Sometimes it is, though. Because it's called Never Gonna Get it. Never gonna get it. So you decided to go with a relationship? That was a terrible guess. No.
Starting point is 00:06:49 Since 2011, the lifespan in one of these items has risen from three years to eight. What is it? Come on, baby. Also, the smartphone came out in 2008. Okay, great. Yeah, but there's been a lot of upgrades on that. Amy, you guessed relationships, that's wrong.
Starting point is 00:07:03 Okay. Morgan, you guessed televisions, that's wrong. Ha! All right, this is for all of. I don't think it's wrong. Eddie! Midland, Texas. Midland, Texas.
Starting point is 00:07:11 Let's go, baby. Big winner in Midland. Is everybody in Midland on the edge of their seats right now? I wonder if he knows Mike Gonzalez. Is that your friend in Midland? Yeah, we went to college together. Whenever he's ever been to Big Daddy's Catfish and Chicken? Hey, Eugene, ever been to Big Daddy's Catfish and Chicken?
Starting point is 00:07:26 Never been to Big Daddy's Catfish and Chicken. What? Are you even living? Life? I've been living here my whole life. I don't even think I've heard of the place. Oh my gosh, Google it. Order Cliff's hamburger.
Starting point is 00:07:37 That's my dad. That's probably not even business. Yes, it is. Cell phone is. Come on. Not the answer. Oh, my. Okay.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Thank you. So nobody got it. So nobody got it. Then I got it. Eugene, you get one more shot here. So everybody write down your second. Yes. I got it.
Starting point is 00:07:57 Eugene, I'm going to give you a second here. But since 2011, the lifespan of one of these items has risen from three years to eight. I'm going to give the show the entire theme song amount to come up with a new answer. And Eugene will pick, yes, that one of you forget it or know that nobody gets it. Hit that theme song. No, you're not going to get it. Never, never, never going to get it. Not this time.
Starting point is 00:08:17 No, you're not going to get it. Never, never, never, never, never going to get it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, Eddie got excited. I got it, guys. Hey, I think maybe I got it, though, too. I got it. I got it.
Starting point is 00:08:30 We may have the same answer again. By the way, we're playing for a $250 Macy's gift card. Macy's makes it easy to find something special for every relationship and every budget. Valentine's Day is coming up. Eugene, you do anything for Valentine's Day? I am doing something. I am taking my wife out. Oh, yeah. Good. You already got a plan.
Starting point is 00:08:48 I got a plan. Good. Well, if you win this, you'll want a $250 gift card to buy her something really awesome at Macy's because Valentine's Day will be here before you know it. Okay, will the show get it? Yes or no. Eugene. I'm going to say yes on this one. Wow. He can't even hear. Answers, he goes yes. I love it. But he knows how confident we are. He knows how good we are at this game. Macy's is the destination for getting everything you need for Valentine's Day from your new look to your date night,
Starting point is 00:09:12 your perfect gift. Experiences like date not are great, but how about something from Macy's? Get to your local Macy's this Valentine's Day or hit up Macy's.com. You got a gift card for Eugene on the hook, boys. Yeah, I don't think this item is available at Macy's, but the lifespan has expanded.
Starting point is 00:09:27 Okay. Amy, what do you have? Computer. Lunchbox. It is your laptop. It is your laptop, baby. We have the same answer. That's kind of a computer, right?
Starting point is 00:09:40 That's the same answer. Yeah, computer, dude. I know. I'm just saying, Morgan. Good job. I don't. Now I'm like, it's not electronics. Because if you think about electronics, it kind of go bad every once in a while now.
Starting point is 00:09:51 So maybe the quality has gone up in shoes, a pair of shoes. That is the dumbest? Close. There could be quality. Your shoes in that last seven years. You just had to trade in a new laptop. You realize that, right? And it was nine years old.
Starting point is 00:10:05 Okay. Dude, you know when like some idea just comes in your head and you're like, oh my gosh, I would have never thought about that. it popped in my head for a reason. It's the light bulb. It's the light bulb. Because we went from these old light bulbs that went out in three years and then LED came out of nowhere.
Starting point is 00:10:22 This thing lasts forever. That could be it. It's a light bulb. Okay, so you've heard their answers, Eugene. Now, do you want to stay with one of them get it or do you want to say none of them do? I want to say none of them do and nothing against them. I just feel like that's it. I mean, but just think about it.
Starting point is 00:10:38 When you go to the store sometimes now, those lights are. light bulbs do say don't change your light bulb for seven years or whatever it is. I think eight to be exact. Well, I'll say this. It's not computer because electronics go out way faster than that. Actually, eight years for an electronic, no way. But is it laptop? It's not.
Starting point is 00:10:57 No, no, not that anymore. Is it shoes? It's more shoes probably than electronics. It's not shoes. Eddie. Come on, baby. I knew it. Again, this is all for Midland right here.
Starting point is 00:11:09 No, he's not picked you. You won't get it. Oh, forget it. It's not for Midland. It's for me. Eugene. No, in Midland. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:15 Hey, Midland misery right here. Just a light bulb. Come on, baby. It's probably. It's actually not bad. That is incorrect. Oh. Okay.
Starting point is 00:11:25 So, Eugene is a big winner. First of all. He's getting a gift card. Eugene. Nice. We're going to give you a $250 gift card to Macy's. Anything else in your mind there? Yeah, now that you said shoes is on the right track.
Starting point is 00:11:35 No, I didn't say right track. I said better than an electronic. Jeans. No. It's something that you have. possibly on you right now. A wallet? Wallet?
Starting point is 00:11:46 Okay, you're getting closer. You're getting closer. It's not a wallet or purse. Oh, it's in the wallet. Credit cards. Cash. Cash, a dollar. A dollar bill.
Starting point is 00:11:54 Wait, what? Dollar bills. Mine doesn't last. Dollar, no, it's not that you hold it. They don't disappear. The dollar bill. Mine's gone within a week. Circulation longer?
Starting point is 00:12:04 Yeah, they don't get torn up. They don't. They're more durable. Yeah. Because it's so much more a cashless society. We don't use them as much. much so they last longer because they're not being constantly handed off. That was a tough
Starting point is 00:12:16 one, man. I would have never got a dollar bill. It is a dollar bill, but Eugene is our winner. Congratulations. You guys are all losers. We're close. Yeah. There we go. Another winner and another group of losers. I'm never going to get it. Hello, Bobby Bones. My husband has a huge phobia of going to the dentist due to an accident when he was younger. When he was a kid, he would project how
Starting point is 00:12:53 vomit at the dentist every time he went. Well, here we are at age 40, and he hasn't been to the dentist since. And he has really bad breath. I tried telling him to go to the dentist, but he won't go and it turns to an argument and tells me, I'm rude. I'm pretty sure he has ginger itis. How do I get him to go to the dentist? I can't take his bad breath. Sign the wife of stinky breath husband. Do you know what I did? I was, all my teeth are either fake or capped. I didn't go to the dentist until my 20s. We really didn't go to the dentist with my family. And so when I finally started to have some success,
Starting point is 00:13:25 I bought myself teeth that weren't crooked and weren't cavity filled, but you can't do veneers on your back teeth. So those are all capped. I've had many root canals through all the years and not having it. So I was eating a, like a taffy. Yeah, like a sticky candy. Yeah. And I felt it pull one of my caps up a little bit.
Starting point is 00:13:47 And the smell that came out from underneath it, Maybe want to vomit. Oh. Oh, and I felt it. Pull it. So I stopped doing it, and I just peeled it off the tooth and pushed it back down. It should be okay. I think it's kind of loose.
Starting point is 00:13:57 I got to go to the dentist anyway next week. For my tooth that I've broken off. Oh, man. My life has been one big tooth mishap after another. But I'm telling you, underneath those caps, because when they put them on and seal them, is like poop chamber. Ugh. It's disgusting.
Starting point is 00:14:13 So anyway, I can see where that one. Can he, like, floss? Maybe. I have gaps in my teeth, too. Anybody have gaps? I have a gap. I have to floss after every meal. I have to carry a floss in my pocket.
Starting point is 00:14:24 It's crazy. It's annoying. Yeah. In my back, I like cracked a little bit. So it's not just a gap. It's a chunk of the tooth is missing from the very back. And yeah, it's problematic. I have to floss it a lot more than, like, after anything, I eat pretty much.
Starting point is 00:14:41 You have to make him go to the dentist because this is long-term health stuff. Yes, because gingeritis and things with your gums where you don't realize is that's attached to heart health. or strokes. Like it's not just about oral health. So maybe don't make it about him being sensitive about his breath and you're being rude. It's no, you're caring about his longevity. And stop being a baby. Like some stuff, you just have to stop being a baby about.
Starting point is 00:15:05 Some stuff. Some stuff there you go to the therapist and you work through it. Stop being a baby. It's going to hurt. Sometimes in life things hurt, you just got to go through it. And if you projectile vomit, maybe you won't anymore because I don't think I have nightmares anymore. after scary movies. And I didn't watch them forever because I got nightmares after every scary movie as a kid.
Starting point is 00:15:25 So I'd never watch horror movies. But now I'm watching occasional zombie flick. Look at me. I go right to sleep. All grown up. So yeah, you can grow up, bro. And also grow up, bro. You can tell him.
Starting point is 00:15:35 Like, hey, heads up. Like, when the last time I went a long time ago, I threw up. I think there's embarrassment from him that he hasn't been. And I can tell you this from an adult that started going to the dentist with messed up teeth. You make up excuses as to why you don't want to go because there's an embarrassment that you never went and you think the dentist is. going to judge you by looking in your mouth. So I would think that is probably part of it too.
Starting point is 00:15:54 So be sensitive to that issue. But bro, you got to go. Take it from somebody who didn't go. You got to go. Or you're going to be so far behind in 10 years when your freaking mouth is rotting out. And your heart's rotting out according to Amy. It's good. Stoke.
Starting point is 00:16:09 Yeah. Yeah, you got to stop being a baby man. Go to the dentist. I don't know how it's connected, but I just see headlines. You know what? Same. Like flossing. Same.
Starting point is 00:16:18 Not lossing leads to stroke. Got to go. Got to go, bro. All right, there you go. Close it up. Let's go to Alfred in Colorado, who has a question for us. Alfred, what's up, buddy? Hey, I just have a question for you.
Starting point is 00:16:30 So, me and my wife have been going through some financial issues as of late. And I'm just trying to find out since Valentine's coming up. I'm used to spoiling her. And I just want to have some, like, kind of advice on what I can do that's not too expensive. I don't want to make her anything because I'm not in third grade. Okay. Hey, does she know that you guys are in a bit of a financial strain right now, or is that a secret because of like something you're doing? No, we know. We show bank accounts and all that. But like our mortgage went up and everything just going up except for our wages. And I mean, I'm working two jobs at the moment. She's working from home. And it's just a trouble right now. Well, then, okay, so it's not so much about Valentine's Day, but I would like to say this. If you're in a relationship and you have a great,
Starting point is 00:17:20 husband, wife, partner, spouse, whatever the case is, and you're going through something, you both know you're going through it. I would think that she probably, because you have built this expectation as somebody who does wonderful things at opportune times for her to make her feel special. However, if you're going through something together, I would bet that her expectation of you in this situation is, I'm not going to say different, but is there's a different expectation and what that special thing is. I don't think it's about buying anything, especially if there's not a lot of money right now. So I think first of all, you need to wipe your brain of how am I going to get money to buy her something. I think if you bought her something in a financially strained time, I think she would
Starting point is 00:17:56 kind of be upset by it because you don't have the money to do that. She's not demanding you do that. So wipe that. Okay, you don't want to make her a macaroni paper. I get it. You're not third grade. That doesn't mean that you can't create a meaningful experience, even at home. Even with like cooking her dinner and making it extremely deliberate, meaning this is the, what you're wife's name. Kathy. This is the night of Kathy. And then everything that night is catered to things that she specifically loves.
Starting point is 00:18:25 Like you're going to watch her favorite movie at the night. You're going to, you are going to make her favorite dinner that you're going to buy the groceries at the grocery store. You are going to have the night of Kathy. And you're going to make a big deal about the presentation because that's what it is, the presentation of how much you love her. It ain't about money when you don't have money. So don't make it about money.
Starting point is 00:18:44 So that's number one. Got me? Got you. Number two, I think she will. love Night of Kathy. And you find three things. Her favorite food. It doesn't have a movie.
Starting point is 00:18:51 If you don't have enough time, you have kids, I get it. It can be a favorite episode of her favorite television show. Does Kathy love a foot rub? And it will be followed by a 15-minute rub on each of Night of Kathy's feet. I think if you present that, that is so valuable. Because you thought about it, it's a gesture, an act of service kind of, an active service. Like, I think that's it, Alfred. So don't beat yourself up.
Starting point is 00:19:17 over the money thing. You'll have money again and you can do that. I think Night of Kathy is pretty much on the nose, man. All right. Sounds good. I will start planning now. However, however, it is the day of Alfred, because I have something for you, Alfred. Can I give you a gift? Sure. Okay. I'm going to give you a $250 gift card to Macy's so you can buy her a little something. Okay, does that sound good? Wow. Awesome. Thank you so much. And if she doesn't hear this, you got her the card. I didn't get her. I didn't give you the card unless she's going to get mad about that. Well, because she's going to be like, how did you get this card to Macy's? You make the call, Alfred.
Starting point is 00:19:53 I don't know about that, but I still want to get this. This is the day of Alfred. So I'm going to give you a $250 Macy's gift card because for Valentine's Day, they make it really easy to find something special for anyone, for every relationship, every budget. You could get her a, like a diamond bracelet. You could get her some YSL berry crush fragrance. I don't really know what that is, but sounds good. Sounds really nice.
Starting point is 00:20:15 It sounds like I want to eat it, not spray it on it. me. Yeah. So Valentine's Day is here. What is it? Next week? The end of next week, next Saturday. So we can get this to Alfred in time, Scoob, Steve? Oh, yeah. We'll FedEx it right to him. All right. Alfred, you do night of Kathy. I'm going to make this day of Alfred and I'm going to give you this gift card. Deal? Deal. Awesome. Thank you so much, Bobby. Yeah, you're welcome. Don't hang up, though, okay? Okay. All right, there he is, Alfred. And Valentine's Day will be here before you know it. Macy's is the destination for getting everything you need for Valentine's Day from your new look to your date night to the perfect gift for your Valentine before it's too late. Look at Alfred. He didn't
Starting point is 00:20:50 need this. I think it's going to be great for him. Experiences like date night, they're great. But man, get with Macy's, Valentine's Day, get to your local Macy's. This Valentine's Day or hit at Macy's. There you go. I feel like my advice was pretty good there, right? Really good. Except for now he's going to be like, okay, now I'm going to Macy's. Because I have $250. But I wanted him to know it's not just about that. So other listeners are going through that they can do their night of whatever. For sure. And make it a menu even like a print out a piece of paper it's like this is the night of kathy at this time we're doing this at this time we're doing it's just all about effort yeah and thinking of what they really enjoy like did they do you know they love taking a bath like go ahead and draw the bath for them it's
Starting point is 00:21:29 on the menu like they just walk in from work and it's like oh talk preach oh you didn't say anything yet yeah yeah just saying like yeah making that menu of things they love because everyone's a little different some people would be like oh hey baths but you know you just have to cater it to them and that's what's special. There you go. There you go, Al. I'm glad we can help. A win is a win.
Starting point is 00:21:50 A win is a win. I don't care what you're saying. Yep, that's me. Clifford Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football, or my career in sports media.

Starting point is 00:23:31 If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they fail. And what I mean by by fell is they don't have money to pay for food.

There is one finding that is consistent, and that is that our resilience rests on our relationships. I wish that I hadn't resisted for so long the need to change. We have to be willing to live with a kind of uncertainty that none of us likes. Listen to a slight change of plans on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Starting point is 00:25:56 The other night in Flint, Michigan, 911, gets a call. 911, what's your emergency? And the guy's like, hey, I was just driving down the road, and I'm pretty sure I just saw a body in the snow. And this is where I was. if you want to go check it out. And lo and behold, it was an old man that was out for a walk, had a medical emergency,
Starting point is 00:26:17 and was just on the side of the road, and he was partially covered in snow. So the anonymous 911 caller happened to see him. Called 911, saved his life. Even with that call, they're lucky they got there in time because who knows how long he was out there.
Starting point is 00:26:29 Who knows how quickly they could have got to him? But holy cow. Would you have gone up to the body? If you see what you think of body, do you make that call? I think I make... Listen. I like to be a hero.
Starting point is 00:26:41 I don't know. I don't know because the last, what was the, when that the name of the documentary we watched? Oh, that's a good movie. Some documentary stand by me? No. Train. Oh, that's crazy. Leaches.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Karen Reed, body in the snow. Oh, you're right. You don't want to be accused of killing the person. Man, you were scared of some stuff, huh? You have some trauma. You have some trauma on podcasts and crime stories. I'm going to make sure that they're okay, which is what this anonymous person did. I mean, did they?
Starting point is 00:27:07 I mean, because the one time I found a body. Okay. Now here we go. Which is where? It was in the middle of the road. And at first I thought it was a garbage bag, right? And I was like, man, garbage bag and cars are going around it. And I'm like, ah, it's a garbage bag.
Starting point is 00:27:20 And as I got my turn to go around it, I'm like, that garbage bag has white shoes on. That's a body. And that's when I parked my car diagonally. And I called 911. I'm like, there's a dead body in the road. And they asked me, sir, can you go up to the body? Go touch it and shake it. Touch it.
Starting point is 00:27:38 And I was like, go make out with it. His story gets crazy. Go make love to it and see if it makes a move. And so I was like, oh my gosh, I'm about to touch a dead body. And I got out of the car. And I went up and I, sir, sir, sir. And I'm like, ma'am, he's not moving. And all of a sudden, dude pops up.
Starting point is 00:27:59 He's like, hey. And that is when his little canister of whip it went rolling. The duster thing, you know, you clean your computer. Went rolling down the street and his Taco Bell Cup was still sitting there. Didn't even spill. And he got up and walked away. I mean, lunchbox is a hero. I am a hero.
Starting point is 00:28:18 Because he was in the middle of the road. He could have been run over. He could have been run. I cannot believe. I hear you. It just said he exaggerates every story so much that when he does have a good one, it's hard for us to believe. No, I've talked about this before guys. I know.
Starting point is 00:28:29 I know. Also, remember when you helped deliver that baby in the post office? I didn't, I mean, I just held the lady's hand. Yeah, yeah. I just held her hand. I didn't really do much. But I'm telling you. And what's crazy is the guy, so the guy walked up the street, crossed over, walked back down the street, and he came over to me and goes, hey, did you see where my can went?
Starting point is 00:28:49 I believe this happened. I just don't believe he was right in the middle of the road, like laying on the dot, dot, dot lines. No, no, he was literally, it was a two-lane road. And it was right here on the east side, you take the exit of Douglas, and you take it right there. Oh, right there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I had just gotten done with having drinks at neighbor's bar. Perfect.
Starting point is 00:29:10 With Amy and Jimmy. And you were driving? Not me. Okay, I was like, this Amy? Are you driving? Yeah. Different Amy and Jimmy and Jimmy. I'd had a couple.
Starting point is 00:29:21 Don't talk yourself into trouble here. No. No. You can go have a drink and not be drunk, guys. Right. You can do this. Yeah, sure. And I am telling you, the guy was laying in the road.
Starting point is 00:29:33 And I mean, I am a hero. Just like this guy. What's his name? No, anonymous. Oh, anonymous. Which is crazy. Get out of the car and check on them. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:29:43 That's what I did. Sir, make love to the body. Okay. You got it. Whatever you say. There you go. That's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good.
Starting point is 00:29:52 It's a Bobby Bones show interview. In case you didn't know. I'm going to talk with Derek Huff from Dancing with the Stars. Blonde-haired guy. He won it many times. He's now a judge on Dancing with the Stars. His sister is Julianne. So we knew each other a little bit prior to this.
Starting point is 00:30:10 I really like Derek Cuff. So we're going to talk about the time as Mirabal was stolen. How many times he's won the show? All that. Here we go. On the Bobby Bones show now. Derek Huff. Some people wonder if the pros are competitive and winning or if they're just there to make their money.
Starting point is 00:30:26 Competitive. Competitive. And actually, in the earlier seasons, even more competitive, I would say. because I feel like we came out of, I don't know what I said of we, I mean like the pros, we're kind of plucked out of the Latin ballroom competitive world. So we were competitors. And we didn't come from like, you know, dance studios where it was like this camaraderie of like supporting your fellow dancers and classmates.
Starting point is 00:30:53 We were a soloist. I mean, you know, part we had partners, but it was like we were against everybody else. And that mindset of like I'm against you, I'm against everybody, was instilled in us. So we were very, very, very competitive. And you would see it. You would see it a lot, honestly, in the earlier seasons, openly. You know what I mean? And so if you could see some of that openly,
Starting point is 00:31:11 you could only imagine what was going on behind the scenes. But it made it fun. It made it really, like, intense. With that said, there's definitely competitiveness. Oh, my goodness. For sure. How many do you have, mirror balls? Six?
Starting point is 00:31:23 Six. Are they all neatly stacked beside each other in an OCD manner? They, where are they? I have no idea where they are right now, if I'm honest. I think they're like in a road case right now. where because I take them on travel with them I take them on tour
Starting point is 00:31:36 and I put them in the lobby you know and just for people to come come check them out and look at um have a broken one and had to get replaced
Starting point is 00:31:43 oh yeah oh so what do you do if that's the case oh no I've I've lost like two of them wait okay I'll tell this story this is kind of funny actually
Starting point is 00:31:52 in my earlier days when I would go out and have them have fun I think I had three at the time and there was somebody at my condo
Starting point is 00:31:59 where I was living I was a bachelor you know the whole thing and then I woke up, you know, the next day and I was like, where's my, where's my trophy? No way. And I was like, wait a minute. Somebody took, somebody took my, because I had like an after party at my house.
Starting point is 00:32:16 There's a bunch of people there and stuff and somebody took my trophy. And I think it was like, I don't think it was two of them because there's only one there. Like, wait, hold on. Luckily there was like a card on the ground. It was like somebody's card. I don't know. I was random. I was a, let me call this person.
Starting point is 00:32:29 Say, hey, did you take my trophies? Yeah, we took them. they're in like koreatown which is nowhere near where i live in the bush somewhere at this address i'm like first why did you do that secondly what so i had to go find them and true enough they were in the bush had to grab them take them home um in one piece in one piece they were fine but i have broken them i've lost a few but you could get a remade um but they're like five thousand dollars a piece wow i did not know they were that expensive yeah something that people asking me about, and I was also very uncomfortable with it when I first started the show as all the
Starting point is 00:33:05 touching, because how I have lived my whole life is you don't touch people, really. Yeah. Like, especially like that in dance. It took me a couple weeks to realize that's just a culture. That's what you have to do it in order to actually do any sort of performance. Yeah. Like fundamentally, your hands have to be on the other person's body all over their body all the time. When you're learning, you're moving, it's great. My mind was blown by all of it. Here's this girl, I don't know, in small shorts and a top and she's like, put your hands right on my butt, touch my hips.
Starting point is 00:33:36 Yeah. And I'm like, I don't want you hashtag me too. Am I good? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So that was very uncomfortable for me at first. But people all the time say, man, they're all touching each other. Everybody's got to be doing it with each other. You hear that a lot, right? Yeah. What's your response to that?
Starting point is 00:33:51 Most of the time. No, it's funny, actually. I would say this in earlier seasons, there was a lot of there was a lot of stuff that would go on, I feel like But the touching is like, it's like working at a bank and taking money. Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:34:06 Here's the thing, I'll say this. The dancing part of it, again, for a dancer, for a dancer, it's not, it's not intimate. You know what I mean? It's not like, ooh, like, this is like, get in here. It's not that at all. It's very clinical.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Yeah. You know, it's like, hey, get your, get there. No, no, that doesn't feel right. Okay, good. No, no, get that hip up in here. And, you know, for me, I'm not thinking like, I'm thinking the mechanics of it and the anatomically, does that make sense? Does it feel good from a balanced perspective or from, you know, just that push and pull to create the speed and the dynamics?
Starting point is 00:34:41 I'm thinking of the performance, you know what I mean. But I remember my first partner, Jenny Garth, you know, I was like this young kid and I remember it's all on camera. I remember just doing ballroom and I kind of like, all right, put your hip here. And she remember me like, she'd be like, woo. And again, for us, this isn't even like what we're doing, you know. It's very clinical. It's very technical. If people want to see you on tour this summer, yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:00 Like, what's the deal? Performing live is for me, number one. It's the best. I'm going back out on the road with the tour that I've done before called Symphony of Dance. It's a really special show. I'm so proud of this show, so much so that I want to do it again and go back out. We're going to change things, of course. There's going to be different songs, different pieces, different things happening in there, of course, make it different.
Starting point is 00:35:21 But also, we're really proud of the show. It's a good one. It's a good, the music, energy, this rock and roll. There's ballroom, there's contemporary, there's bit of everything in it. It's really fun. It's time for another compliment battle. Let's go. I don't really need to offer money because it's mostly about the game, but $3 up for a great.

Starting point is 00:41:38 Okay, there it is. Another compliment battle, everybody. It's time for the good news. With Bobby. Tell me something good. Last week, a pair maintenance workers at Lewisville Hospital in Blacksburg, Virginia, made an emergency trip during the winter storm at its worst to help feed a newborn baby who had not eaten. So Tyler Stanger and Tyler Underwood were both working at the hospital.
Starting point is 00:42:02 And so they were asked by people at the hospital for a specific type of baby formula because there was an infant being treated. And the request came while the area was in icy and dangerous road conditions. But what they did is they went through the snow and the ice to get to Walmart, had to go to a different store to find something else for the formula. Basically they had to make a concoction because his baby needed a specific kind of food and formula. And so then they brought it back to the hospital. It's crazy the hospital didn't have it. Yeah. But the fact that they went through the storm, went to Walmart, went to another store, gathered all the materials and got it back to the baby.
Starting point is 00:42:37 It's pretty cool. They should get a raise. I demand Tyler Stanger and Tyler Underwood get a raise. I'm not going to find it myself, but I demand the hospital or like a commendation or a bonus. A bonus sounds good. Because they didn't have that in mind when they were doing this. They were just going out to help the baby. At least a parking space, right?
Starting point is 00:42:57 Above and beyond. Yeah, but for more than a day. Yeah, yeah. Like, it can't be like Princess for a day. It's got to be like Princess for a month if they get that job. So officials say the actions of the workers and the other staff involved showed compassion and teamwork that wasn't necessary to work there, but was really great of them to do. That's from People magazine. So a big shout out to those guys.
Starting point is 00:43:16 That is what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. When you turn the radio on and the dial just keeps on turn. Dad is trying to put you through. Black D's right in this week's next. Now Bobby's on the back so you know what this is. This is the Bobby Vaughn's store. 90 seconds upon the board, guys.

Starting point is 00:45:59 This story comes to us from Florida. An 18-year-old gotten an argument with her mom. She didn't want to clean her room. Start she yelling at her mom. I'm not going to clean my room. Mom says, you're not leaving this house. Do you clean your room? room. So the daughter goes in the kitchen, grabs a pork chop, whop! Hits her across the face.
Starting point is 00:46:18 It's weird of all the things, all the weapons that could have been in the kitchen. Knives. Well, even lesser than stabbing. Porks. No, even lesser than stab. Yeah. Oh, yes. Even a paper towel roll. There are just many. You guys went hard. Dang. She grabs a pork chop of all things. So does the parent call the cops on the kid if she gets hit with the pork chop? She must have, because how else is this is in the news? That's true. But I'm saying generally, do they? No.
Starting point is 00:46:43 I mean, I've never gotten hit by a pork chop. If your kid hit you with a pork chop in the face, would you call the cops? No. Should call the cops? She called the cops. Had her daughter arrested for assault. Wow. Sorry, did you say how old her daughter was again?
Starting point is 00:46:54 18. Oh my gosh. So this must not be a first. Yeah, it's two adults. Offense type thing. Like the daughter, if this is the first time, I don't think you call 911. Also, if it's the first time, I don't think they grab a pork job and it hit you in the face. That's true.
Starting point is 00:47:08 Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. I'm Lunchbox. that's your bonehead story of the day. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care which I'm saying.

It's Financial Literacy Month and the podcast Eating While Broke is bringing real conversations about money, growth and building your future. This month hear from top streamer Zoe Spencer and venture capitalist Lakeisha Landrum-Pierre as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up. If I'm outside with my parents and they're seeing all these people come up to me
Starting point is 00:49:37 for pictures. It's like, what? Today now, obviously, it's like 100% they believe everything, but at first it was just like, you got to go get a real job. There's an economic component to communities thriving. If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they fail. And what I mean by fail is they don't have money to pay for food. They cannot feed their kids. They do not have homes. Communities don't work unless there's money flowing through them. Listen to Eating While Broke from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

Starting point is 00:50:24 What Cougler did that I think was so unique. He's the writer-director. Who do you think he is? I don't know. You meet the, like, the president? You think Canada has a president? You think China has a president? Los Angeles Rousette.
Starting point is 00:50:41 God, I love that thing. I use it all the time. I wrap it in a blanket and sing to it at night. It's like the old Polish saying, not my monkeys, not my circus. Yep. It was a good one. I like that saying.
Starting point is 00:50:53 It is an actual Polish saying. Yeah. It is an actual poem. Better version of Play Stupid Games, win stupid prizes. Yes. Which, by the way, wasn't Taylor Swift, who said that for the first time.
Starting point is 00:51:02 I actually, I thought it was. I got that wrong. Listen to the Nick, Dick, and Poll show on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. All right, some voicemails, number one. Lunchbox is cheating somehow. Guy who can't sing, he doesn't know who artists are, he doesn't know anybody, doesn't know people's names, doesn't pay attention to stuff. But when y'all start playing games, he's winning every time now. What in Tarnation!
Starting point is 00:51:30 Telling you, you better do some investigating. I have no idea. I don't even think I win that much. So I don't know what Tarnation he's talking about. But I remember random things. Like I have a great memory. So I don't know what you're talking about. But I don't cheat. I never cheat. Wouldn't cheat. Wouldn't cheat. Cheating's not fun. I think a lot of cheat. I think a couple of those are lies. And you guys all are sitting right here. How would I cheat? You're looking right at me. I don't think you cheat, but cheating is fun for you and you would cheat. But I think we kind of enforce not cheating. Right. So there is no. Well, no, I'm saying you said you don't like to cheat. And that makes it not fun.
Starting point is 00:52:06 You would cheat. I would cheat if I could. Yeah. But you're not cheating. But I'm not cheating because you guys are looking right at me. There you go. Number two. Hey, Bobby. I was wondering if you could tell us where and when you will be at the Super Bowl festivities. I live just a couple hours from the city and was hoping I'm going, but I especially wanted to go
Starting point is 00:52:24 if I could find where you guys were. So let us know on air. Thank you. We're not going to be at the game. We're going to come back from the game, but we're going up to work on Thursday, Friday. And I don't think it's not a public thing where we go, we interview a bunch of people. And you have to have, like, credentials to get in.
Starting point is 00:52:43 So there's, it's not. You know where I will be is Thursday night. I'll be at that theater. doing the trivia game and you can come to that but it's not my event but I think there are tickets let me look that up because I'm I'm doing the it's called the dozen trivia with one of the barstole teams you probably look that up Mike could you look that up it's uh Thursday night in San Francisco at a theater yeah that that'll be the one public thing that I think I'm doing otherwise I just give you Eddie's room uh unless not do that is all this stuff going to be like
Starting point is 00:53:19 like in San Francisco or Santa Clara? Like how does that all work? All San Francisco. The game's in Santa Clara, but all, because it's so, it's 45 minutes from there. Yeah. So because it's so hard to get out there, the stuff Thursday, Friday, is mostly in San Francisco. Got it. I can get you that in a second.
Starting point is 00:53:38 I can tell you the theater. Not my room. Not my room. I don't know. We'll see. Give me the next one. I was trying to follow up with me going to L.A. I remember you guys talking about she might go and try out for the press.
Starting point is 00:53:51 is right, just trying to get some more information about that. Oh, yeah. Oh, let me answer this first. It's at Thursday, 6 p.m., the dozen live show at the Fillmore. Doors at 5 Pacific show at 6 Pacific. So, yeah, I'll be on. And these teams exist. They have a whole league.
Starting point is 00:54:12 And I think, I know Boston Rob is, I think there's four teams, and Boston Robb is one of the celebrity guests on one of the team from Survivor. I'm one of the guests. I don't know who else is. right now but that's what's up uh amy uh launchbox thought you were going to prices right and we didn't even talk about it when you got back and i'd like it didn't happen that's not why she went did it not happen i wasn't there for prices right yeah yeah i've already forgot honestly yeah me too because that was like and it's been so hard to schedule stuff in the holidays and then we had it was right at the holidays how funny would it be though up in may like amy's like all right
Starting point is 00:54:49 let's watch our prices ride episode she wins it and it airs. Yeah, no, that's definitely not what I was doing. I kind of wish that's what it was, but it wasn't. Okay. No update there. You're not lying, right? Nope, line's not fun.
Starting point is 00:55:05 And you wouldn't do it. Lunchbox did go and he did not make it, but he'll be in the crowd in the April episodes, I think. March 31st and then your birthday. April 2nd. There you go. All right, next up. I just wanted to share hope and encouragement to Nashville. We live in Austin, Texas.
Starting point is 00:55:20 My husband works for Austin Energy. and he, a crew and a bunch of materials left for Nashville at 4 a.m. this morning to go and help. If you see one, say some encouraging words to all the line workers working around the clock and from all over. We're in it with you. Bye. Hey, thanks. Line workers going hard. We have been struggling. We went three days of that power. That's nothing compared to some folks that still don't have power. Amy lasted another two days, maybe three days more than I did. And then I got it back. Lunchbox. What's happening with you? 27 hours, but half of my neighborhood still doesn't have power.
Starting point is 00:55:53 You can have credit for that, though. Yeah, I do take credit for that because I feel bad for those families that are a few blocks over. But you're taking credit like it's happening to you. Well, they do come over and hang out. He also still doesn't have Wi-Fi. Oh, that's true. Or cable.
Starting point is 00:56:07 Oh, my goodness. Or cable. And then a neighbor like three down, though I guess the wire to their house got severed, so we all have power and they don't. It was here, Amy. were you talking about stolen valor where they were like, yeah, we don't have power either
Starting point is 00:56:23 and I'm just feeling sorry for him with the turns that they had to generate the whole time. Oh, yeah. Is I here? Yeah. Yeah, that, yeah. I kind of feels like what he's doing a little bit.
Starting point is 00:56:29 What do you mean? I was 27 hours, man. 27 to be exact. That's true. It was 27 hours. And it was. Well, I think it's because honestly, when I was thinking about that more,
Starting point is 00:56:37 I think it's because it's awkward to be like, it's almost like they couldn't find the right time to say how they have a generator, you know? Because it's like, oh, just like an extra. Well, we're good. and then I think she felt like she needed to get it off her chest.
Starting point is 00:56:51 So then like 10 minutes later she's like, oh, well, we haven't even had to leave. We have a generator. You just don't say you didn't have power then. They didn't lose power technically. You say, yeah, it went out, but we had to generate. Like, say, if you don't say it right away, then just, I don't know. It's getting hard though because it's become an icebreaker. Like, hey, what's up, Tom?
Starting point is 00:57:10 Like, hey, did you guys lose power? Like, it's the first question. It's your dream. You love an icebreaker. And then you've got to be like, no, man. was one of the lucky ones. You and I, never lost power. Never lost a dang dang.
Starting point is 00:57:21 We had a generator guy come over three weeks before the ice storm, before we even knew there was one coming this way, gave us a quote, agreed to it. Then the thing hit. We didn't have a generator. Then it's delayed coming in. I think we should be getting ours installed in late February. But the irony is we had already said, yes, we needed a generator. Just didn't.
Starting point is 00:57:42 Hope the price stays the same. Well, we already paid. We already agreed. to the price. Oh, okay. You know what I mean? Because how they... Why are they raising the prices?
Starting point is 00:57:50 Yeah, but they're not sourcing them from in Nashville. I mean, if you needed it now. Yes. Then they maybe... From locally. Right. But... Because sometimes they do that like a gas.
Starting point is 00:57:59 You know, like if you're fleeing a... Yes. They put it for like $8. That's what it's called. Yeah. I saw some high school girls. I don't know what was in the bags, but they were brown paper bags. And there was probably six trucks lined up on one street.
Starting point is 00:58:12 And, you know, these girls probably, I mean, they could drive. So, call them six. 17, 17 years old, and they were going around from truck to truck, like handing the little bag. So I imagine maybe they had baked some cookies or put some little snacks in there. But I just thought, well, that is impressive. It's so bad for those guys because they are getting paid and getting paid overtime. But also, it's just so cold.
Starting point is 00:58:32 It's so cold. They're just so cold. That sucks. But yeah, good for Mike and Eddie for never losing power. Yeah, man, you know. We're one of the lucky ones. I felt bad there was one day I got a little sweaty inside. I'm like, I can't.
Starting point is 00:58:44 You guys, you want to be part of the. group, so you turn your air all the way down to AC cold. Next voicemail. So many unread everything. Like it's stressing me out, just hearing you guys having unread things. That's insane. That's insane. Fully agree.
Starting point is 00:59:04 I have none. But yeah, we went through it. One of our stations, I think like US 1035, they did a fun graphic. It was a picture of all of us and it had us listed all the things that we had on social media. It was good. And it made me look at it and go, I cannot believe they. Well, it's easy. It really is easy.
Starting point is 00:59:20 It's super easy. The short answer is we don't get stressed by it. It's totally unraveled. It's actually easier than reading all of them. Right. And like, y'all are getting secondary. But who knows what you're missing? Stress.
Starting point is 00:59:32 Not worried about it. From us? Yeah, yeah, I am. Right, but that's the problem. Like all the things you've missed because you weren't paying attention. All the emails you haven't read. Nah. All the things.
Starting point is 00:59:41 Yeah. I mean, what could be that important? It'll find me if it needs to. You know. They hit me up again. Usually the way. it works is they'll email me. I don't see it. And then later in the day, they're like, hey, I send you an email. Will you check it? Got it. Then I'll go look for it. No problem.
Starting point is 00:59:54 Next one, Ray. Wayne, Indiana. Back in the day, I remember you guys had somebody's show from like his mansion and he said that he was the secret billionaire and had a secret, just curious whatever happened to him. Thanks. Love the show. That guy was so convincing. We haven't heard from him since. Yeah, it wasn't real. But we definitely, we don't war the roses. callers. So that to us that was real. Meaning we don't do fake callers.
Starting point is 01:00:29 You hear War the Roses. Oh. They actors. So we don't hire actors. And that guy was really convincing that I thought it could be real, didn't you guys? Yeah. I never thought it was real. He told me I wasn't invited because I kept
Starting point is 01:00:43 doubting him. You kept saying, well, everybody but lunchbox. Well, what was the risk and just going along with it? And what did we show up? If he was lying, great content for the Joe, if he wasn't lying, then we knew a billionaire. Yeah. But I was never going to go out there.
Starting point is 01:01:00 But what if you did say? Like, all right, we'll go. What's it going to do then? I know, you can't anymore because I'm lying. I think I said we wanted to go and he was like, come on. And then we never just. Right. But who knows?
Starting point is 01:01:09 He also might not have been lying because we haven't heard from him since. He probably was. I'm a cynic, naturally. So I was cynical. But he probably was. But, yeah, I don't know. We don't have a good answer. That's how you know it wasn't like a contrived bit.
Starting point is 01:01:22 We'd have a close to it if it was. But I haven't thought about that guy in a long time. Man, he had us going. That was cool. We had another guy that called and won the lottery secretly and told us that whole story. Yeah, he had a voice changer. Yeah. He did?
Starting point is 01:01:37 Yeah, but his member, his voice was so deep. No, no, no, no, no, no, not that guy. We had a guy that we talked to on the show who's family. It was like a month ago, two months ago. Oh. He called and talked to us. He's like his family doesn't know he won the lottery. I don't remember that.
Starting point is 01:01:51 Mike, you remember that guy? I still don't... A lot of people calling secretly one crap. It's pretty funny because I think they just call just to make lunchbox mad. I think that's what it is. It's very frustrating. This guy I believed, though,
Starting point is 01:02:03 because he wasn't bragging about billions or millions. He said his kids didn't know. Yeah, I don't know. But there's your voicemails. Thank you for leaving all those. Who knows what's real or not, man? It's hard these days. Don't believe anything.
Starting point is 01:02:18 Don't believe anything. Not a dang thing. Yeah, call us if you want. 877-77 Bobby into our voicemails. Thanks. If you're wanting to go to the Super Bowl, ticket prices are dropping. So last week, they were about $6,100 at this time. Now they're $4,400. They're going to drop to about $2,500. We're going to out there for a couple days. We're going to leave before the game. We're going to do some interviews. And kickoff Kevin's a big Patriots fan. He's flying out there with us. And then he's like, I'm just going to come home.
Starting point is 01:02:47 We're like, you're a massive Patriots fan. Why when he stay? Right. He's like, I don't want to buy a. ticket, it's $6,000. I'm like, dude, it's going to drop way down. Well, so what would be an appropriate amount? Wait till half time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They'll be giving those away. Yeah, 100 bucks. Our thing to him was, you've never been to a Super Bowl. You're already going to be out there. Your team is in it. Put it on a credit card. And that's usually not what I say to people. Ever. No, but I say it here. I do say here. But this is once in a lifetime. Yeah. We've already paid for the flight out there. And it's your favorite lifetime team. You're already there. Just pay for the ticket on the credit card.
Starting point is 01:03:21 I mean, it's only a couple more steps than he's in. Right. The dude. Right. So that's what's up. They're down? I think his, yeah, even if you have to go alone, yes. You wouldn't go alone if it was your favorite team?
Starting point is 01:03:34 And you were already out there? I don't know, guys. Y'all are asking a lot of me right now. I'm having to act like I'm a big football fan. Like if Robin Roberts. Robert was speaking and you were right there. Correct. And I was so close?
Starting point is 01:03:45 Yes. Okay. Okay, fine. I get it. Yeah. I mean, you could use like an artist I love or like a performance. but yeah. I think tickets will be around $2,500,000, which is super expensive because it is the Super Bowl.
Starting point is 01:03:56 But how often do you get to go to a Super Bowl? How often is your own team in the Super Bowl? Okay. And you're already there. So like, let's say George Strait really is playing his final show ever, like it's for real, for real. He's never going to play his final show. I know, but let's just say.
Starting point is 01:04:06 That cowboy has come back so many times. Let's just say he is riding away for good and I am so close. Heck yeah, I'm going. You're right. That's from Forbes. A 16 ounce can of beer. What's that? A normal.
Starting point is 01:04:19 Is that normal? Two cups. No, that's not normal. It's a little tall. It's like a tall boy, but like a little smaller. So it's not as tall of a tall boy. Okay, so a normal coat can is 12 ounces. So as 16 ounces, four more.
Starting point is 01:04:32 So how much does that normally cost? A 16 ounce can of beer. Just one? Yeah. $4. At the Super Bowl, $14 for one of those. $10. Yeah, at a stadium, it's more.
Starting point is 01:04:45 Yeah, is that way more, though? No. It's not that much more. No, like if I went to the Cowboys and I bought one of those, probably be about the same. For a beer, it's $14. Why not just get super wasted before you go? You do.
Starting point is 01:04:55 But then I guess you can't experience the same. It's not the same, right? That's why you tailgate. That's from Forbes. But we told Kevin he just needs to stay and go alone if he has to. I would go alone if it were my team, although I don't have an NFL team. But if Arkansas... Wait, you do have an NFL team.
Starting point is 01:05:12 I mean, not a lifelong one, that I would spend $2,500 on a Super Bowl. Right, right. It's different. Yeah, yeah, it's different. All right, we're done. Bye, everybody.
