Here we are back again. Morning studio. Morning. All right, Amy is still at her house. She still got a cough. It is a wet cough, man. It is dirty.

It's tough to shake a cough, though. Those things sometimes stay for two months if you don't get on medicine. Are you on stuff, Aim? Dayquil and NyQuil. No, like Z-Pack or K-pack or P-Pack? No, not yet. I mean, I have a cough that has to hide your coat or whatever, but... That'll help a little bit. Yeah, don't take that during the show. I don't know. If I ever get that, it makes me fall asleep. I don't ever feel good.

I'm just like this. So, Amy sounds weird because she's still working from her house, because she's sick. We'll start with this. Spirit Airlines. There's a plane that the tire catches on fire, and so then they tell the passengers, stay seated. Here, I want to play you audio from inside the plane. These and gentlemen, stay seated, stay seated, but we do not have to back here. You know, please remain seated.

Stay seated. Everyone keep the aisles clear. Stay seated, please. All right, just go. Go back to your seats. We do not have to evacuate. Please go back to your seats. Thank you.

If the pilots give us commands you evacuate, we will evacuate. But please remain seated right now and keep the aisles way clear. If we do have to evacuate, please just leave your back. We will let you know. Please remain here. I mean, these people are itching to get off this plane because the tire, they landed, the tires on fire, they're looking out the window. And they're like, stay seated.

seated. I'm surprised nobody went airplane on this airplane. And by go airplane, it means to flip the crap out. Because people are flipping out over masks, but they're not flipping out because they can't get off a plane when the tire's on fire. But it landed in Atlanta. And the fire started around the landing gear. And so people started to freak out. I would have freaked out too. But at least it's not in the air. I'd have really freaked out. Would you have stayed seated, though? They told you 10 times. I have no choice, right? I'm locked. I'm locked in there. I'm locked in there. But I think if I was in the air and that happened, I would have panicked, panicked.

If I'm on the ground, I want to get off the plane. I want to slide down the big rubber slide. That looks fun. But I'm actually okay if we have to stay. And you know what they say. If you fly spirit, you're going to end up a spirit. They say that? I don't know if you're not.

That's terrible. A New Mexico woman allegedly, that'd be the worst slogan ever for an airline. No, no, no, no. A New Mexico woman allegedly stole car with kids inside. Oh, no. And the mom climbed on the hood, which makes sense because you probably try to get on or stop that car any way possible. But a woman in New Mexico stole a car and there were two kids inside. This happened on July 4th in Hobbs, New Mexico.

The Hobbs Police Department said that a woman parked her white Hyundai Santa Fe in front of a store in which she returned. An unknown female pushed her and got into the vehicle and drove off. Traffic camera video shows the mom attempting to stop the carjacking by getting on the hood of the car. Inside the car, her six-year-old daughter and her 11-month-old son. That is crazy. The suspect, who has identified as Regina Castillo, then abandoned the car once she saw the kids and began to run. She was arrested after she was found hiding behind a pickup truck. What are you just sitting behind the tail?

The children were reunited with their mom after being treated by EMS. That's from the New York Post. But I definitely understand why you would jump on the car if your kids are in it. We read so many of these stories. And the other day I was at the gas station. I was like, I'm just going to run in real quick. But I thought about all these stories. Like, no, I'm bringing all the kids in.

You don't want to risk it. Like, I was thinking it's only going to take two seconds. I'll go in, pay, and I'll be right back. No, I took them all in. But your oldest? You wasn't there. It was all the little ones. Interesting.

And can't you leave it running and lock it? You can, but I mean, oh gosh, I wouldn't trust my kids. They would, like, keep me locked out. They would steal it. Oh, they would leave me locked out. Oh, you're not getting in, Dad. And finally, a New Orleans woman's facing murder for higher charges after she tried to hire a hitman on this site, rent-a-hitman.com. Oh, my gosh.

It's another one. Yeah, 33-year-old Zandra Ellis was arrested in the parking lot of a waffle house last week after discussing the hit with an undercover agent who she hired on rent-a-hitman.com. She was haggling over the price before selling on a $1,000 fee to kill the other woman with $100 up front. And then the 900 later, that'd be terrible for Hitman to only take 10%. Oh, yeah. You take 90% and then get the other 10. Yeah. Ellis was arrested outside after paying the deposit because she did that.

And she faced up 10 years in prison. By the way, this site all the time, people go to rent a hitman and try to rent. By the way, are you renting one? Are you just hiring them for their services? Yeah, you're using the service. But it's not a real site. All right, there you go. But it sounds like, if you're,

She lives in New Orleans. She's 33. She should be listening to our show. Uh-huh. She just missed out. Yeah, we've talked about this site. We've talked about it before. It is 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. Dear Bobby Bones, my husband has many female friends. He has several businesses that require him to associate with women. With that being said, is it cheating when he asked his women friends to go to dinner with him? We actually split up for several months Last year over this issue

I think it's a form of cheating Considering these women are single And their messages are flirty between them Just a couple of weeks ago I saw a message between him and another woman By the way he let me have his phone to play games Again they were flirting with each other And he then asked her to dinner

He said he was consoling her because her father died Which wasn't true because I checked her Facebook first He also tried to delete messages before I saw them But I saw them first I contacted the woman and she would not respond to me after she realized I was his wife. I really don't know what to do. We have several businesses together,

and I don't want to lose my investments, but also don't want to stay in a marriage. If he continues to do this, we've been married less than five years. What do you think? Cheating husband or just a friendly guy signed a worried wife. Yeah, it's a cheating husband. Just like that.

Well, listen, just because a guy is going to dinner with a woman in its business-related, I don't necessarily think something's going on there. if that's the instance. That should happen if it needs to happen. There doesn't always have to be something sexual happening

if it's a man and a woman together. And I think men and women can both control their urges if they're mature. That being said, there's a lot to unpack here. You've already split up over the issue so something happened

to make it an uncomfortable situation with you guys. Secondly, they're flirting in text in no need for that. That's not good. A no place for that. Flirting and text.

text, deleting them. Dad died, not true. That lied right there. If he's lying about that, he's lying about other things too. This ain't a good situation for you. So if all this is true, it is not good, and you should not be in this situation. If it's temporary, if it's permanent, but you've got to look to get yourself out of this situation.

Now, on the final paragraph, you say, you have several businesses together. I don't want to lose my investments. You can still keep path. You can still keep them. You don't have to lose them just because you divorce. It happens all the time where people own stuff and they split up. So cheating husband or friendly guy. That's the question.

If I had to pick one, cheating husband. He also a pretty friendly guy, too. A little bit of both. I was going to say both. Yeah, this is very shady. This is a total sketch here. Amy, your thoughts? When it comes, I think if you've already kind of made your decision and really what you're

holding on to is the fact that you don't want to lose your investments, then you just have to hire. the right people or the right lawyer and just get the right support from family and friends. And then hopefully when you divide up assets, like you'll still be okay and just know that it's going to be a hard season, but you'll get through it. Yeah. And you don't stay together just because of investments. Yeah, that's not good. Right. Unless you make the deal, we're just going to stay together because of our investments, but we're going to lead completely other lives. Yeah. So, yeah, it's not going to work as it's going here. You should look at finding out a little more

and getting out of the situation of all this is true. I hate to say that because mostly I'm like, oh, who cares? How fun, party. Actually, I'm never like that. I'm like, I've never heard you say that. Yeah, I think I'm never like that. Cheating husband, thank you for the email. I'm very sorry this is happening to you,

but just by what we read here, this is not good, and you need to look to get out. We've got your email and we read it on the air. Now it's about to close. Bobby's mail back. Yeah. On the phone, James in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. James,

You appreciate your call, and what's going on, buddy? I know you don't really know anything about the radio, but I hope you could tell me about how, like, song selection on the radio works. Yeah, you mean the science of how a radio works, no idea. No idea what happens in the air. So, yes, don't know anything about that. Transmitters, dumb as a rock. But maybe I can help you with this.

All right, go ahead. So the example I'm going to use is song Life as a Highway by Rassel Flat. song came out in like 2006, but it seems like the radio goes through phases of playing that song like every two weeks. So I'm wondering why this song from 16 years ago was still hanging on and getting airtime when like number one song from last year aren't even getting played anymore. It's a good question. That's a great point. Let me answer that for you. First of all, life on a highway is getting played because it's a jam, right?

Like, that's the song comes on and you're like, I don't remember how good that song was, so it's playing right now. And that intro, you're like, Life is a highway. And you're in your car and you're slapping the studio. I want to ride it. Oh, no. So jam is the number one reason.

Number two, this is how radio works. And I don't agree with the philosophy as much, but so there will be what they call current songs or power songs, the biggest songs. The A listers are like five or six of them, and they will play like every hour and a half or two hours. And the reason they play so frequently is because they know the average person isn't able to listen to the radio for an hour and a half or two hours. And so they're going to play the biggest hits so the most people hear them. Now, if you hear a song twice in an hour and a half for two hours, like, they play this one they play this song all the time.

You're a rare person who's listened for that long straight. Okay, so they're just trying to get the biggest hits on for the most people. That's the first rule. There are secondary songs, which are coming up, like songs nine through 16, they play a little less frequently. And they're also getting researched at the same time. And if the research comes back and they do all these calls, hundreds and thousands of calls to people to play music over the phone, and it feel like, I like that song. Then after research, they will move that up when one of the other songs falls off. So that's how that works.

Now, do that with 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, eat songs trying to climb the ladder to other steps. Now, why a song like Rascal Flats would come on? You have to find older songs that aren't, if you're on a new country station, that aren't a Johnny Cash or 60s or 70s or 80s. That'd be classic country. That people still go, that's an old. old school song that's the jam. So they're always switching out high researched songs from 10, 15, 20 years ago to give texture to the radio station, meaning it's just not all new songs all the time. Every once in all, you hear something that's like, oh, that was a good one from five years ago.

That was a good one from nine years ago. But again, even life is a highway, your station or your region must have played that song over the phone for 10,000 people. And a lot of them went, that's the jam. So then they go, oh, that's a good one. People still love it. We're going to play it every couple of weeks. And you hear Life is a Highway a little bit more. Fun fact about that song originally wasn't a radio song. Was never a single. Just started to get played because it was a cover

and then became a hit because it was on cars. The movie cars, yeah. So the radio programming philosophy, not something I agree with wholeheartedly, but it's something I understand. It involves a lot of research and a formula. And when a song goes number one,

the next week after it's not number one, radio does something stupid and they just drop it. And it's like, well, it's the out of here. For the most part, they lower it. And songs don't stay at number one for most of the time, three, four, five weeks. Where at least in pop, they do because it's just the best song. Radio, they like pass out free candy for number ones. So that's also why you don't hear a number one. You mean country radio. Yeah. Radio, like, yeah, what we're on. That's why you don't hear number one a year later is because sometimes, it was the number one a year ago. There was actually a pile of crap that just got it for participation trophy and it doesn't test well. That happens a lot.

So, yeah, the programming philosophy in this format, I'd do a clown face emoji sometimes on it. Some of it's really good, but some of it is just like, oh, you have a song. Oh, that's cute. What label you on? Here's the number one. But some of it is genuine awesomeness. But a lot of research and research even into old school songs, James, and that's why you hear Life is a Highway. All right, next time.

There you go, buddy. I appreciate that. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk. We'll see you next week, everybody. All right. All right. Thanks, James. I'm back in a second.

Have a good day. It's time for the good news. With producer Eddie. Tell me something good. Six-year-old Lena, she's on a flight on United Airlines from Norway to South Carolina, and she's got a loose tooth, and she's wiggling at the whole way. And she's like, I don't know, it might not be ready to fall out. Well, they get off the plane.

They're on their way to baggage claim, and she realizes, my tooth is gone. Oh, my gosh. It fell out without her knowing it. It's got to be on the plane. So she tries to go back, and security's like, no, I'm sorry. You already passed the checkpoint. You cannot go back to the plane. So she starts crying in the airport.

And one of the United Airlines pilots walks by and says, what's wrong? What's wrong? He's like, my tooth that's on the plane. They won't let me go back. So the pilot says, here, let me write you a note to the tooth fairy. And he wrote, Dear Tooth Fairy, Lena had a tooth fallout on her flight to Greenville. Please take this note in place of her tooth. So she gave it to Lena and Lena put it under pillow.

There's no update of if the tooth's fairy got the note or not. That's a good story. I like it for three reasons. Number one, a pilot stopped because a kid was crying in the tournament. Yeah, that's good. That's a good guy, good woman. Don't know, but they stopped. Number two, they went through and took the time to write a note to the tooth fairy when they didn't have to.

That's it. Again, number three, apparently there's a nonstop from Norway to South Carolina. Look at that. Who in the world? I can't get in Norway. I can't get a nonstop to Tulsa, but they're going to have one to South Carolina from Norway? Yeah, that's funny. What in the world?

So that's what you got out of this story. Those three things, yes. That's a great story. That is what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good I'm going to give you guys my top five country songs of the summer In like two minutes But first I'm going to give you Billboard's top five songs of the summer

And these are just the big pop songs But at number five, glass animals heat waves That's jam! Yeah, I'm saying it That's what they call it jam sandwich That's a really good It's been out for a while now But man, that is a good song

Really good At number four, Lizzo It's called About Blank Time, as I say. Yeah. About dang time. Maybe I can get her to count one of those. That's number four. Number three, it's Future and Drake.

Here we go. I think I've ever heard that one. Number two, Jack Harlow, first class. That's a good one, and number one, Harry Styles, as it was. Okay, so that's billboards. I agree with the number one and number two, mostly because I've listened to all those albums for the past two months.

Jack Harle's been out about two months, because my wife listened to them all the time. Oh, yeah. I listen to them all the time. All right, here are my top five country songs of the summer. At number five, it is Brett Eldridge, Songs About You. I'm just trying to get the songs about... I was posting an Instagram story on our vacation.

I was going to use that song over the top of it. It was Caitlin and I. She's like, no, that song's about getting over somebody. I was like, oh yeah. Did you know that? Probably, but I just thought it was a good song. It said songs about you. She was like, no, no, no, that's not what you put there.

That's funny. I was like, okay. Number four, Haley Witters, everything she ain't. Good one, huh? That's a good one. It's so good. Number three, and I love this song, and it's just now getting started on the chart. He played it here on the show.

When it comes like a summer feel good song, Ryan heard, pass it on. Pass it on. Pass it on. Pass it on to someone else What good is you gotta roll your love Or you gotta let you keep it all to yourself I mean that's a summer song right there Yeah

Makes you feel good, makes you smite's a positive song What's he talking about? Well, a lot of stuff, love your bottle He says it there, yeah, yeah And number two, Morgan Wallin, waste it on you Wasted on you And at number one, my house has become Kind of obsessed with Zach Bryan

To the point where we just listen to his TikToks and his new album's basically all sad songs. It's not out yet, but that's all he's putting on TikTok. And so this is Zach Bryan. This is a song that's out now, something in the orange. To you, I'm just a man to me, you're all I am where the hell am I supposed to go. I'm posing myself again. Something in the orange tells me you'll never coming home.

If you leave today, I'll just stay. There out the way The orange touches all things around The grass trees and do How I just hate you Please turn those headlops around I love a sad song I love a slow song

I love, you know, Sappy Kenny Emo Kenny Chesney Not Beach Kenny Nope, I can pass on Beach Kenny But I love Zach Brian because it's all sad stuff It seems like all the time His voice is cool too Yeah, it's awesome

He's got a humongous TikTok following. And again, he keeps putting up him playing all of his new stuff, but it's not out yet. But that's my number one song, Something in the Orange. By the way, honorable mention, Eric Dodd with Cizan Ramundo and Abby, Vacation Part 2. Vacation Part 2, a car. I get Eric opening my first show, my comedically inspirational show. Has he contacted you yet about performing with him? Yeah, he said, do you want to do a line?

I go, yeah, but if I come, you probably got to bring Abby too, right? Oh, the whole thing. Oh, wow, wow. What do you say? I mean, no, he's definitely down, but I'm asking Abby, can we do it live? Turn it up, the right part. You're so Gucci, you sizzle. Like firework shooting right out of Charlie Daniel's old fit.

Like sunny side up, boy want to whistle. Can you do that live? Sure you can. Do you know the word? Could you do it? Hey, turn it down. Could you do it by yourself right here? No, no.

Oh, you don't know it. No, I got to memorize. You got to do some work. We got a month. Okay. Give me what you got? I don't know. But you wrote it.

I know I did. Did you write that though? Yeah. Okay. But singing is hard. Memorizing songs is very difficult, and I think I'm showing that. What the artists do is very, very impressive.

So I'm doing two shows, August 12th and 13th. But on the 12th, my comedically inspirational show, Eric Dodd's going to open up. And I guess Ray and maybe Abby you're going to show up and do this song with them. Okay.

Tickets. Oh, yeah. Tickets go on and sell Friday if you guys want to get tickets to come to Nashville for it. All right. So those are my best songs. And honorable mention, we got vacation part two there. Amy, tell these guys what happened to you. So we were out to eat at a Mexican restaurant and we're sitting there just minding our business.

And out of nowhere, all these employees come over, put a sombrero on my head and start singing, Happy Birthday. Just randomly? Yeah, but it wasn't my birthday. They actually realized after the first line, their mistake and the girl's, next to me, the table next to us is their birthday. How funny is that? You just go with it? What do you do?

I was so confused. And then I figured it out. Did you think that somebody, because sometimes you do the joke where it's like, it's a birthday. And then they come out and you're like, he, he, he, he. But nobody did that. The girl next started to be like, wait. It's my birthday.

I'm not doing this for me. Hey, something else on Amy's flight. We were talking about, and we've talked about this before, but on her vacation, they had to fly. And so the whole question of who gets the armrests when you sit in the three seats, right? Especially if you're flying southwest. So what happened? So my son had a middle seat and he wanted to know like, hey, who gets the armrest?

And I wasn't sitting on his row, but I knew we talked about it on the show and I thought middle seat gets both armrests. And then the people on the plane didn't agree. So I googled it and found an article from an etiquette person. And sure enough, it says when sitting in a plane with three seats in the row, middle seat gets both armrests. But what do you mean the people didn't agree with it? Well, the person next to him was just like, oh, I had never heard that before, but they were glad to know it.

They weren't rude about it by any means, but they just had no idea. I don't think that's right, by the way. And etiquette isn't a law. Edicott's just someone going, I feel this is the proper way. I think those armrests are first come first serve. I don't think anybody owns them. And if you put your arm on at first, it's yours. Like as soon as you sit down, just claim it with your elbow?

Yes. and if you come off of it, it's like hands on a Harley, hands on a hard body, whatever that is. If you come off of it and someone else takes it, it's now theirs. Interesting. Because if I sit down and I'm in the window seat and I put my arm on it,

you can't sit down in the middle, I'll be like, eh-uh, I read it on Jimmy Smith's site that is mine. No, I think if you put your arm on it, it's yours. But when you move it, it's now up for grabs again. Yeah, I feel pretty strongly about that. You know, there's a way to share it. Like, you know, there's a part of your elbow. Yeah, but if you don't know the person,

that's a weird chair. That's true because it's really close. Yeah, there's some situation sharing is weird. If you don't know the person, that's one of them. Or your elbow can go up in the front of it and the other person can go in the back of it. You could. And if someone's elbow is on the front, then that back is there for you to take. As long as you're not touching them.

You can't touch somebody you don't know. It's a general rule. Don't touch somebody you don't know. So I'm going to go. It's first come first serve. If you sit down there, that's yours, regardless of where you sit. Anyone disagree with that? I think the middle seat is such a bad seat that you have to give the middle.

They get on earlier. Well, exactly. Check in earlier. Check in earlier. You shouldn't be rewarded for being a loser. Bobby shifted me. I was like, oh, middle. Yeah, that makes sense.

They get both arm rest. But hearing Bobby talk, I'm in first come first serve. Yeah. You shouldn't be rewarded for being a late loser. Okay. Because you didn't sign up early enough. That's pretty harsh. I believe in it.

You got to stand up for what you believe. Who are you even? All right. Thank you, Amy, for those stories. On the phone right now is Brent, who lives in Virginia Beach. Brent, good morning. What's up, buddy? Well, I just had a general question for you guys because I know some of you guys have kids and stuff like that.

Me and my wife have a one-year-old son and her and I have not been able to take that vacation like thing for just her and I to keep our relationship intact a little bit. So I was kind of wondering, how do you kind of, we have people that we try. trust to let him go to him. I'm sorry. But we were just basically wondering, like, how do you like let go of the worryiness so that you guys can just go and relax as a couple? How many days are you leaving for, Brent? We just wanted to try to leave for at least a weekend just to kind of, you know, forget about everything for a weekend and just have fun for ourselves. That's not bad. If you were going to say seven days, I'd say it's probably too early in the kids' life to leave for a week. But a weekend sounds good. Eddie, I'll go to you. You've got a lot of

kids? What do you say to them? Man, you just have to rip it off like a band-aid. Like, just do it. I know it's going to be hard. Maybe whoever's staying with a kid can FaceTime you, you know, multiple times a day, so you can see the kid and all that. But you just have to do it. I mean, I think for dads it's a little easier. My wife, it's tough. Like, she didn't want to go on vacation for a long time. How long? I mean, I would say like at least. Yesterday? Yeah. No, she really does have problems still, like just leaving the kids with someone else. It's usually her mom, but it's tough. So you just got to do it. Hey, Brent, who is it harder for?

You or your wife? More harder for my wife, honestly, because he was actually born with severe hearing loss. So he actually got cochlear implants when he was 10 months old. So it's a little hard for him to communicate still here. He's, you know, going to speech therapy and all that stuff. But she's constantly worried about him. And I'm just trying to tell her all the time to just kind of relax, fine. We also need to concentrate on us so that we can keep, you know, everything fine with us as well as being.

a father and a mother. Yeah, I think that's an important step, too, to make sure you guys are healthy. And, again, if it's for a weekend and it's somebody that you really trust, I think you just got to go. It's going to be hard. And the next time's going to be pretty hard. The time after that's going to be kind of hard. It just gets easier as you do it, I would assume.

Brent, appreciate that call. But Eddie said, rip the Band-Aid off, man. Just do it. Oh, Eddie's writing me a note. Just leave the kid at home and go. What? No, I didn't say that. Oh, you didn't do that?

No. Yeah, all right, Brick, good luck. I agree with you in that. you guys do need, even if it's a day, time for you guys to go and make sure that you two are having a healthy relationship because that is very important to your son as well. All right. Thank you guys. Appreciate it. All right, buddy. See you later. It's good. Cool. I think a lot of people probably deal with that, huh?

Yes. It's a common thing. Here's Amy's pile of stories. So one reason people have dogs is to scare off burglars. Sometimes people don't even have a dog. They just put a sign in their window and it works. Well, it turns out that walking dogs actually deters more burglars than you would think. So simply the fact of having to walk your dog around the neighborhood is like a neighborhood watch program without it even trying to be. If a burglar broke in my house, my bulldog would, I don't know, sit on his feet. They want to be scratched on his head.

I mean, my dogs would not give a crap if a burglar broke in. But yeah, I could see where a dog would be what you don't want to see if you're robbing a house. And not because they eat you, but because they make you. noise more than anything. All right, what else? All right, Bobby, what are your thoughts on gaming being taught in school? I don't know why it wouldn't be. I mean, this is an industry where there are billions of dollars being spent and made, not only making the games, but playing the games. So, yeah, I'm all for gaming being in universities. Why?

Well, a survey was taken and more than half of adults think, yeah, kids need to be learning this skill because it can teach them a lot, but also gaming could be a career. Yeah, it's not about hand-eye coordination anymore, and it's not Donkey Kong. I think a lot of, oh, video games. It's not that anymore. So if you go, oh, it's just video game. Okay, it's not Mario Kart, although Mario Kart rocks. Yeah, it's pretty good.

But it's so much more advanced than that now. This is playing video games, not making video games? Both, but all. Okay. You could play, they have scholarships in some schools to be on a gaming team, the same way they do sports. I mean, I only imagine, like, in the 20s or 30s, they were like, we're going to have football, a part of the school. and we're going to give kids free school to play football. This is all, this just happens.

I'm a big believer in gaming in schools because there's a lot of, it's an industry. And why would we not be teaching our young adults if they want to be part of an industry, how to be in that industry and be better at it, either by making the games or playing the games. Long live, Viva la video game. Oh, I like that. Yeah, Viva. For me too. Viva la video game.

You're at your house. Yes. Oh, my wife here is this. All right, Amy. That's it. Yep, I'm Amy. That's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news.

With lunchbox. Tell me something good. There's a point guard for the University of Tennessee basketball team that his family's house burned down back in February. Oh no, what are we going to do? Well, VALS fans, they got online, set up a GoFundMe, and they raised $350,000 and bought them a brand, new house and they just moved in.

They moved all the way from New York to Knoxville so they could be closer to their son. Oh, that's cool. I remember talking about this when it happened and they had raised all that money. So now they're in the house. They're in the house. They moved in all because fans came together and donated $5, $10, $15, $1,000, $15, boom. I'm sure the NCAA will find some way to penalize a program in some way here. Yeah, that's a really great story.

I also didn't know they were from New York and now are moving to Knoxville because that's where the house is. Yes. So they moved across the country. Well, shout out ball fans. I mean, only second to Razorback fans, am I right? Sure. Yeah, thank you. There you. Okay. All right, that's what's up. That is what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good.
