This financial literacy month, we are talking about the one investment most people ignore,
building a business around the life you actually want.
It was just us, making happen whatever he said was going to happen, and then it happened.
On Those Amigos, entrepreneurs like America Sam and Joe Huff get real about money,
taking risk, and while your dream might be the smartest move.
At the end of my life, what am I really going to care about?
And the conclusion I came to is what I did to make the world a better place in whatever way.
Listen to those amigos on the I-Hare radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.
On paper, the three hosts of the Nick Dick and Poll Show are geniuses.
We can explain how AI works, data centers, but there are certain things that we don't necessarily understand.
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.
I actually thought it was. I got that wrong.
But, hey, no one's perfect. We're pretty close, though.
Listen to the Nick Dick and Paul show on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
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.
There's an economic component to community striving. If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening,
communities, they failed.

Come on, Bobby.
Welcome to Tuesday's show, Morning Studio.
Morning!
All right, let's go around the room and check in with everybody.
This first person is happy whenever he gets a par.
He's also pretty good playing the guitar.
Here he is.
Producer right in here, let's go.
Guys, I got two jams in my life right now.
One of them, by Dan and Shay.
I was listening to the radio.
It's called Save Me the Trouble.
Dude.
It's so good.
It's their new one back.
I mean, it's like next level good.
Yeah, it's jam.
Like there's music changes, core changes where I'm like, whoa.
It's almost bluesy too.
She goes so high at one point.
Same at the trouble, baby.
Oh, it's so good, dude.
What's the other one?
And then after that, they play a new one by Parmali.
I'm like, the boys are back.
Parmali's got one called Girl in Mine.
You like that one?
Yeah, girl in mind, yeah.
But these are new, right?
The title goes now.
Dan and Shea's is, yeah, me too.
Parmali's been on the countdown for a while.
Yeah.
But for some reason, they take longer to break through Parmali.
But then they always make it up there.
Yeah.
So good.
But Dan and Shay is brand, brand new.
Yeah, and then, of course, I've been jamming to a little bit of turnpite.
Which one?
Oh, all of them.
Good Lord, Lauren.
Oh, so good.
It couldn't go so wrong.
So good, dude.
That's my house.
I don't know.
It's a good season for music right now.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah.
Good for you.
Thank you, man.
I do that, too, in and out of season.
and I'm like, I have nothing that interests me.
And other times I'm like, I love everything.
All right, next up, some listeners think that he takes us teasing with Abby a little too far.
And if you ask him, he's one of Nashville's biggest stars.
Here is lunchbox.
Oh, guys, let me tell you, my life is turning around.
The luck train is coming my way.
I was in North Dakota this weekend at the Four Bears Casino.
And I was like, you know what?
Ray and Bay always talk about the Buffalo machine, slot machine.
And I'm at the Four Bears Casino and I see Buffalo.
Like Bayes won on this slot machine.
Right?
Yeah, several times.
Like for how much?
She hit for 3.2.2.
No, no, no, no, no.
3,200 is not a number.
All right.
You can say 3,200.
And then 1.8.
No, that sounds like 1.8 million.
1.8,000.
1.800.
So stupid.
He said it like that's so funny.
Okay.
And you see it?
So I see it and I'm like, you know what?
Bay swears by it.
I saw some guy in Vegas hit like for 50,000 on it, you know?
He told me it.
Oh, yeah, I hit on this machine.
I'm like, oh, my gosh, I got to try it.
So I walk in, I put my money in.
I'm sitting there.
My third spin.
Hold on.
Don't hit it.
Do you have audio?
Don't hit it yet.
Oh, yeah.
I got audio.
Come on.
I got audio and video.
Hold on.
Hold on.
So, did you win more than $50?
Yeah.
We're not going to do this again.
Yeah.
Did you win more than $200?
Yeah.
Oh, boy.
I'm not going to have the audio right now.
What?
You're saving it?
What are the 200 is a lot?
Yeah, I'm going to come back in a minute.
Oh, okay.
If this is big, I want to focus on it.
Okay.
That's a big deal.
Okay, did you want more than 500?
I've won more than 200.
We'll come back into this.
Oh, I killed it.
Dang, dang, dang.
Dang, dang.
Well, now we have to hit it.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
What?
Well, if it's less than 500, though.
I didn't say it was.
You asked me 200?
And I said yes, and you said we'd come back.
You're doing double speak.
That's the end of it.
we'll come back.
If it's less of 500,
Ray, is it less than 500?
The audio really doesn't say, so it's up to him
whatever the amount is.
Oh, my God.
You can make up whatever.
It is more than 500.
Okay, we're coming back.
Are you lying?
I am not lying.
Okay, then we're coming.
We're not going to go to this now then.
You could have just said that from the beginning.
Okay.
Amy, we're coming over to you.
Her morning, Corny, will leave you with a lasting impact,
and her earlobes may not always be fully intact.
Here she is, Amy.
So Bobby recommended the show, Hi, Jack.
I don't know, last week at some point.
It's on Apple Plus, and it is so good.
I am done with it.
I haven't watched a show that fast in a while.
There's seven episodes.
I did watch the majority of it while I was traveling.
Oh, on an airplane?
Here we go.
I'll recommend watching it if you have to fly.
But I figured, well, I'm only flying Dallas to Nashville,
and this isn't a long enough flight for a list of demands.
So I think we're good.
It's always a long enough flight for a list of.
for a list of demands.
Yeah.
You liked it though,
huh?
What'd you rate it?
Oh,
I loved it.
Five hijackers out of five.
Perfect.
I would have went four and a half.
It's good.
Bad pilots out of five.
That's funny.
What would you have given it?
So I watched it too.
I'd give it four out of five text messages.
Four out of five.
Four out of five.
Just because there were scenarios where I was like,
okay, come on.
That wouldn't happen.
At the very beginning,
I thought this is going to be too cheesy.
And it lost the cheese.
Yes.
But at the beginning,
I was like,
this is going to be too cheesy.
But it wasn't.
And anytime you think you've got it, you're like, oh my goodness.
Don't talk about twists.
Because you do that all the time.
The whole thing's a twist.
I know, but you're like, there's a twist.
There's a lot of people live the twist.
Okay.
Let them love the twist.
All right, Raymondo.
From Mountain Pine, Arkansas, he's been doing sneaky lists with people's top five.
So get ready because it's live.
Bobby Bones.
Thank you very much.
I saw a story.
A study found how boys without fathers fare compared to those with fathers.
Now, I was interested in this because my dad left when I was five, six years old.
Boys who grew up with devoted single moms do just as well in life as boys from more conventional families.
In a groundbreaking study, researchers found that boys without fathers were more sensitive to others and more in touch with their own feelings than boys of the same age.
And I would agree with that.
I think I was raised by all women.
So I think some of that sensitivity is there for me that I, yes.
And I don't have this need to prove how masculine I am because I didn't have a dad to ever be like, you got to be a man.
Now I have other vulnerability issues but that aren't masculine.
issues. They tend to be harder workers if they don't have a dad and hold a paying job earlier in
life than their peers. So I would say I kind of fit that mold thereof. If you don't have a dad,
you got, or if you just don't have a dad or a mom, you have a one parent or a no parent or a
grandparent, it's harder to get out of the hole. But once you get back to even, you kind of have
an advantage because you just spend all that time and effort working just to get even. And now you're
sharp. Now you're sharp. Now you're strong. So I've always said that. Like sure, I had a bigger
whole than most, not all.
But once I got back to just even,
I felt like I had an advantage of everybody else that was at even.
Because I had nothing to lose, and I was already, like, wired to go.
So shout out to everybody who, all the dads that left.
Shout out for me.
No.
What?
No?
No.
I didn't know what you do?
Shout out to the devoted single parents.
Yes.
That's from a book called Raising Boys Without Men by Peggy F. Drexler.
I will come back and get lunchboxes money here.
He won over 500 bucks.
You promise.
I don't ever lie to you guys.
That's not true.
It's time for 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 need your advice on how to make
My sixth wedding anniversary
Next month a truly unforgettable experience
Because I dropped the ball last year
Last year I let work commitments
Get in the way of taking the time
To make our fifth anniversary special
I did not book dinner reservations
I did not have a gift
I didn't do anything because I did not realize
it was our anniversary.
I want to make amends to show my wife
just how much she means to me.
I know you're really good at this kind of thing,
so I wanted to get your advice.
Signed, husband trying not to drop the ball again.
Well, you can't fix that you messed up last year.
Let's just go ahead and say that.
So don't try to repair it so well
that it comes off as you're trying to make up for something
because then it won't make this one special
if you're making up for something.
So, first of all, remove from your head.
You just do an interception, but you know what?
If you keep thinking about the interception, you're going to throw another one.
Short-term memory.
You're a goldfish.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Be a goldfish.
So, Amy, before I give my advice, what would you like to say to him?
Well, I looked up the traditional gift for a sixth wedding anniversary.
Like string?
Oh, iron.
That's good.
Get her an iron.
No.
And ironing lessons?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And an ironing board.
Iron skillet.
Something like that.
But it's proof that you've got a tough, durable relationship.
marriage. You forgetting last year isn't going to ruin anything. Y'all are strong. I feel like
maybe you do like six special things for her. Like they, they are scattered throughout, like not just
six gifts at once, but it's kind of like a little like, you know, you write something on a paper and
she draws it out. Multi-layered too. Yes. And so she, you've got six and a hat and you draw them
throughout the day and she gets all six things throughout. What I would suggest is the day before your
anniversary, you have a fifth wedding anniversary celebration, surprising her.
Happy anniversary.
It's not an anniversary.
I know it's tomorrow, but I wanted to give you a better fifth anniversary before we have
our sixth tomorrow.
Oh, that's pretty good.
I like it.
And so the surprise element means you actually took time to think about it.
It doesn't have to be something crazy.
I'm telling, I've learned this as I've gotten older.
Yes, I love gifts.
I love cool things, but if somebody puts effort and time into it,
it's better than whatever money they spent on it.
Like, if I know they spent time,
like, that's so much more valuable to me at this stage of my life.
And I think similarly, it's going to be that you want to make it up to her.
Don't make it all that, make it up to her.
Just surprise her the day before with happy anniversary.
She'll be, this, oh, here he is again.
You forgot her anniversary.
Our fifth anniversary that I kind of screwed up last year.
And tomorrow's our six.
I'm telling you, she'll love it.
And you can do one of Amy's games for,
for the sixth,
but that's how to make it special.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
And the sixth little that she could draw
doesn't have to be
if you said anything expensive.
It could be just different things
you know she loves to do
and you're gonna spend the time with her
or like a massage,
like you could even do it.
I could.
All right, I'm coming over.
All right, that's the mail bag.
Close it up.
We got your email and we're on to close
Bobby's mail bag.
Yeah.
There's a voice mail we got last night.
Hello, Bobby Bones.
I was just,
listening to the Monday morning show and I heard you talk about how you pee on the floor.
I just wanted to let you know that they do make nightlights that go inside of your toilet
bowl so that way you can see the toilet bowl even if the lights are off.
You get up 3 a.m.
You just walk into the bathroom.
You shoot your shot.
You make it in the bowl.
No harm, no foul.
All right.
Talk to you later.
By the way, if you just heard that completely out of context, which it is, you would think
I'd just go into the bathroom and pee on the floor.
I don't.
What I said was is that I think, I know,
sometimes my wife gets irritated because there are like dribbles on the floor sometimes
that I don't clean up.
If it's dark, if I'm in there like two in the morning,
I didn't know you can put a light in your bowl.
That's pretty cool.
Yeah.
It would be like a nightclub in there.
We had that at our last house.
I know.
I hated it.
So yes, I could do it better.
I could just do a better job, though.
I think when it's nighttime, I should just get all the way over the toilet to pee.
Or just sit down.
You can do it.
Always do that.
Yes, I'm telling you, it looks like a club.
I'm looking at the pictures now.
So bright.
That's awesome.
That's crazy.
I do want to talk about this too.
I mentioned this in the T's there.
And this is a real thing for guys, and I know we kid folks on the show about it a little bit.
But nine in ten men who are experiencing hair loss say their hair is a big part of their identity.
And over half of them admit to being extremely self-conscious about socializing because their hair is thinning.
And I can tell you where I am not losing my hair, but I have been consistent.
concerned about it in different seasons in my life where I'm measuring like spots.
I have this huge cowlick on the back of my head that I've always had.
And so I've been like, okay, no, it's a double crown.
Cowlick's up front.
I've been like, okay, let me take a picture of it and see if it's getting any bigger.
And luckily it hasn't.
My biological father has a lot of hair and that whole story about it comes from your mom's side.
Not exactly true.
Genetics is just a genetic thing.
It can come from your mom or your dad.
But I do, I think men worry about this for sure.
Now, Raimundo worried about it.
He started going to get treatments.
Yeah.
Where they would like take his blood out of.
Correct.
They'd take it out of my arm and then they put it in your head and it's supposed to like rejuvenate hair growth.
And has it.
Yeah.
I mean, I'd probably be fully bald.
I have a twin brother and I heard that he's bald.
You heard?
He heard his bald.
I haven't seen him.
He's in Michigan.
So you act like that's Saudi Arabia.
But he's like estranged.
Got it.
Now that makes sense.
That makes sense.
Strange makes sense.
Okay.
So do you feel like that helped you though?
It really helped the hair.
How's your hair look?
Looks awesome.
I've had hair right now, but it does look good.
You've got a lot of hair.
So you think that works?
Yeah, of course it does.
That's why I go.
So, Eddie, I know we've discussed before you shaving your entire head, bald.
Have you thought about that anymore?
I have, but my wife doesn't want me to do it.
She doesn't want me to do it because she says when I shave my head, I look just like my dad.
And she's like, that weirds me out.
I don't want you looking just like your dad.
What about arm blood?
You thought about that?
No.
Why not?
No, I'm cool with my hair.
Honestly, yes, I am.
Like, I'm cool with my hair.
I've been losing my hair since I was 20.
Dang, that sucks.
You know, so it's been a thing in my life.
You don't deserve that.
Thank you, Bones.
I appreciate that.
You don't deserve that.
Yeah, it sucks.
It really does, because, like, how does it select me?
I don't know.
I thought you were fine with it.
No, but it does suck to your hair.
It's like going gray out of a friend who went gray at, like, 24.
You know what I hate most about it is I can't have hair like you guys.
Like, ooh, you got a hairstyle.
You go to the bar.
You go to the hair place and you're like, hey, do me one of these.
Or make me look like George Clooney.
I can't do that.
We should stop doing that after high school when we go in and take a picture.
But I do understand what you're saying.
Yeah, man.
You have other things to offer.
Like, I want a mullet.
I can't do it.
By Wallens, he cut his off.
I know, completely.
Over half the men polled admit to being extremely self-conscious about socializing,
and 88% consider their hair to be a big part of their identity.
Your thoughts on that?
Are you self-conscious?
Yeah, I mean, I'm be honest, yeah.
I mean, that's why I wear a hat.
Or else I just wouldn't.
I wouldn't care.
But if I don't, I really have a bald top of my head.
so it kind of looks like I'm a lot older than I really am.
So yeah, I'm self-conscious.
So again,
it's a real thing with guys.
Would you consider the arm, blood?
No.
Okay.
No, no, no.
I mean, what am I doing moving hair from my butt to my head?
No, no, that's not what it is.
So it doesn't come from your butt, dude.
Whatever.
Same thing.
So he could just wear a hat instead of doing.
They're both doing the same thing.
Correct.
Yeah, but when he goes to formal occasions,
he does take his hat off,
and I feel like the whole time he's like,
oh my gosh, I can't wait to get that back on.
No, I forget about it.
I forget that I even, I'm bald in my head.
feel cold? No.
Sunburn?
Nope. I spread
the top of my head when I go to the beach.
With sunscreen?
Sunscreen, yeah.
It is a big thing
for men that we probably don't talk about
because guys don't like to show vulnerability.
But guys are scared. I'm scared of it.
So how do we help with that?
Just make it not a thing?
Yeah, but it's a thing. There's no way.
You can't do anything about it.
Like, automatic.
It's like being short.
Yeah. What are you going to do about it?
Sorry, Ray.
Well, I don't know.
Campbell.
But you fix the bald part.
The height part has been an issue.
We can start now.
We're attracted to things that we think are attractive.
Like, if short men are in, then short is attractive.
Luckily, women can see more than just a bald head.
Exactly.
Because if women were going bald, it was the same way around.
Guys would be like, oh, I didn't know bald woman.
Like, Amy, would you prefer your dude to have a bald head or hair?
I mean, just if...
But there's a preference.
Would you preferring to be six, three or five seven?
I know, but she's saying let's change the narrative.
I was saying we can...
Bobby just said...
Bobby just said perfectly.
I mean, when I was...
But not a shaved bald guy.
When I was married.
Got the Eddie head.
Right.
Where there's hair on the side
in the back but not on the top.
Do it.
Do it.
What a dumb bit.
What is that called?
Like a bowl?
Anyway, that's all.
Just be sensitive.
That's all.
Be sensitive.
All guys are sensitive.
Yeah.
I'm being sensitive.
But don't overdo it.
Don't say like,
ooh, your hair looks good.
Sorry for your loss.
I say that every time
somebody comes up when they're missing hair.
Sorry for your loss.
It's time for the good news.
With Bobby.
Tell me something.
Really famous baseball player Bryce Harper plays for the Philly, a big superstar.
He hits a home run.
They also win the game last weekend.
They beat the Royals.
Boop.
Game over.
Not only that, he helped a seven-year-old kid find his family.
So they do these things where you go and you can take a picture with your family, kind of like a promotional deal.
And you all get there.
And sometimes there's a sponsor.
You get to go on the field.
And so that's what happened with his family.
But the seven-year-old got lost and couldn't find his family.
So he's crying.
And then Bryce Harper walks out.
like, hey man, what's up?
Seven-year-old kid.
Now, Bryce Harper's a dad.
He said he wanted a dad mode.
And so he took the kid and just walked around with him, seven years old to make sure he could find his family.
And so that is exactly what happened.
He went searching with the seven-year-old, finally found his brothers.
And then, what, 45 minutes later or so gave them to him.
You know those brothers are freaking out, too.
Like, where did he go?
Yeah.
They were probably in charge of him.
I mean, I'm looking at all three of them here.
It looks like the oldest is like 11 or 12.
Can the 11 or 12-year-old be the keeper of a 7?
If he's responsible, mine couldn't, for sure.
So some can't.
Yeah, yeah.
Some can.
So, yeah, Bryce Harper, big hero in the game and also getting this seven-year-old back to his family.
Thought it was a great story.
That's what we do here.
We share good news.
That is what it's all about.
That was Tell Me Something Good.

Hello, gorgeous, it's Lala Kent.
Host of Untraditionally Lala.
My days of filling up cups at Sir may be over,
but I'm still loving life in the valley.
Life on the other side of the hill
is giving grown-up vibes,
but over here on my podcast, Untraditionally Lala,
I'm still that Lala you either love,
or love to hate.
I've been full on over sharing
with fans, family,
and former frenemies like Tom Schwartz.
I had a little bone to pick with Schwartzie
when he came on the pod.
You don't feel bad that you told me
I was a bootleg housewife?
I almost flipped a pizza in your lap.
Oh my God, I literally forgot about that
until just now.
Sorry, I don't want to blame alcohol.
I got to blame that one on the alcohol.
This is about laughing and learning
when life just keeps on life in.
Because I make mistakes so that you guys don't have to.
We're growing, we're thriving,
and yes, sometimes we're barely surviving,
but we do it all with love.
It's unruly, it's unafraid, it's untraditionally Lala.

Hi, Dad.
And just when I said that, my mom comes out of the kitchen.
She says, I have some cookies and milk.
This is a badass convict.
Right.
just finished five years.
I'm going to have cookies and milk
a mom.
Yeah.

Before this one, what's the most you'd ever want on a slot machine?
Like $400.
Okay, so he promises he won a bunch of money on a slot machine.
He would not tell us earlier.
How much do you think you won?
Around the room.
Man, I think he got $1,000.
You think it's that much?
Well, he's acting like it's that much.
He acts like that all the time.
Okay, well, maybe this time you sell the truth.
Eddie, $450.
I'm going to go $501.
Yes, exactly.
It's nowhere more than that.
So was it so big they had to come to you?
On the screen, it said, call attendant.
Oh, that's pretty good.
That's pretty good.
Call attendant.
Where were you?
I was at Four Bears Casino in North Dakota,
and Ray and Bay had talked about this Buffalo game.
Some guy in Vegas, I saw one like,
$40,000 when I was there.
And I was like, man, I've got to play this.
So I go and I sit down.
I put my money in.
First spin, nothing.
All right, cool.
Oh, no.
We can do this for every spin?
Second spin.
Nothing.
Nothing.
So third spin, I'm like, you know what?
What are you playing?
It's penny slots.
So it's a penny?
So you play the max and there's a bunch of lines.
So it's like $5.
Okay.
For one spin?
For one spin.
Got it.
And so the third spin, I'm like, you know what?
The hand's not working.
Let me try the L.
And I hit the elbow.
Boom. People start shooting at you?
Yeah, what happened?
No, that's like a boom, like a buffalo!
So what's the audio we have here?
This is this ringing it up.
Here we go.
Bringing it up!
This is it.
Good luck.
Right here, here go.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh!
Oh!
Oh, call attendant!
Call attendant!
I'm going to retire.
I'm buying an island.
Okay, did you know then how much you had to run?
No!
I had no idea because it was just, it just was throwing things in the air and it was like,
Boom, boom, boom, boom, call attendant.
Call attendant.
So attendant comes over and says what?
And look at it like, oh, we're going to need your social security number.
Okay, that's huge.
That means something.
Yeah, taxes, baby.
They wouldn't got a tax form.
Oh.
Come on.
Come on.
You fill it out.
I fill it out.
And then he's like, let me see your hand.
I put my hand out.
And he starts counting $100 bills.
What?
100.
Two hundred.
You want to hear it?
Oh, you have it here?
I got it.
Okay, let's go.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and nine, one thousand.
And 11, 12, 13, 14, and 20.
Fourteen, four hundred and 20.
Oh, yeah.
One thousand, four hundred and twenty dollars.
Do you think, can they fix a machine to make you win?
No, well, they can fix it if you, but you don't get paid.
They can make it do the alarms, but you can't, no, that's illegal.
It is?
Oh, my goodness.
Is the gaming regulations and all that?
Yeah, I don't know.
Oh, my, it was crazy.
Are you saying about maybe they know he's coming, he yells loud, he's in videos?
They had no idea what machine I would pick.
I would agree with that.
There are almost a thousand slot machines in that place.
Oh, you picked the machine.
Yeah, I just walked around.
I was like, oh, yeah.
Okay.
I cannot believe you won $1,400.
Yeah.
Wait.
What's my prize for being closest to guess without going over?
Pride.
Good job, Amy.
You win.
You won the pride for the day?
Remember who believed in you?
I know.
I really thought they were going to rename it the lunchbox casino, but they kept it at four bears.
Or the lunchbox lounge.
Buffalo.
It was crazy.
Just to apply because lunchbox won here.
But here's the problem.
People started approaching me.
Like, one lady came and me and goes, oh, you're the guy that won $142,000.
Like, I did not win that much.
Did you win $140,000?
No, I won $1,4,000.
$1.4,000?
Yeah, $1.4,000.
And then we went to the golf course.
And there was some guy there golf and he was like, oh, you're that guy that won like over $100,000.
I'm like, no, no, no, I did not.
But I thought that's your thing.
You wanted people to think you're way richer than you are.
I was scared they were going to break in like, get me.
I was like, no.
So the whole town knew of your win?
Yeah, why was there that rumor?
How'd that word get out?
No, he was at the casino when I won.
Wow.
She was at the casino when I won.
I mean, it was amazing.
And they gave me a little ticket, said winner and everybody wanted to take pictures with me.
I mean, it was awesome.
Did you like to casino?
It was so much fun.
Yeah, it was a blast.
What's it called?
It's called Four Bears Casino, man.
$1,400.
Let's go!
That's crazy.
I mean, I didn't know.
It just kept going.
I thought it was going, and going, and going.
So how many pennies was that?
I don't know.
I don't think they paid him pennies, though.
Although that would have been funny.
But if you could count, like, used to, they used to do the coins out.
Imagine how many pennies that'd be.
Do the math.
Do the math.
Ching, ching.
I don't want to.
Between Ray's wife and lunchbox, it seems like this is the game to play.
Buffalo, baby.
I was in the video
I am acting like a buffalo
because I mean I was just
it kept going
I was like running out of excitement
and I was like no
it keeps going
I'm out of breath
so you were getting tired
but it kept going
it kept going
congratulations
yeah
lunch is on him today
whoa
come on man
now you get a car
we'll talk about that later
okay
so if it's a TV theme song
and it were done by Mozart
or Beethoven
he's going to play it
we have to guess it
okay this was the example here
This ends up being friends, right?
You got five of these.
I don't know what they are.
I'm going to play two.
Ready, Ray.
Do we want to buzz in, guys?
I say we buzz in.
Oh, boy.
Yeah.
Quick draw.
Quick draw.
Are you ready?
Go.
Buzz on.
The Simpsons.
Yeah.
Buzz in, we should do seven.
Good game will be over.
That's fine.
Are you saying I can win it real quick?
No, I'm saying to be over like five seconds.
All right, next up.

Come on, time.
Time he stole.
Yep.

Step it up.
Step it up.
Ready?

Got duck tails!
That's crazy, dude.
That's crazy, dude.
I haven't heard that since I was like five years old.
You going to do more?
Yeah, come on.
I've already won, but everybody can play.
Come on.
Dude, um...
Hey, hey, Amy, lunchbox, wake up.
Just do 10 seconds of it, Ray, so everybody can hear.
Don't buzz in.
I know.
You sound sad.
Go ahead.
Well, that was 10 seconds?
I can play more.
It's an exhibition anyway.
Oh, man.
You know what, lunchbox?
Hold on.
It almost sounds like the real one.
Yeah.
Lunchbox, go ahead.
Unsolved mysteries.
Game of Thrones?
Oh, I'm mad.
Dang, I would have gotten a plane.
This is a classic.
No, any.
Classic.
I mean, all these other ones were from the 30s.
I mean, the simps are still on.
Yeah, but.
Next one.
Immers in the building.
No.
Is it?
No.
What's that one?
Brains anatomy?
Power Rangers.
One more.
Okay, go.
Gilligan's Island.
No, it's Pokemon.
Can you play some of the officers and back?
We jumped on that one pretty quick.
Yeah, here you go.
man.
Dude Simpsons.
You got this one,
who didn't you?
Just my note.
Come on,
like you almost here.
You pushed me to my limit.
You pushed me to my limit for sure.
You had it the whole time.
If you had it got ducktails.
I didn't know duct tails until I heard.
Into duck world.
That's crazy.
You got duct tails.
Here's a voicemail from Miguel.
Hey, Bobby.
I was calling because I heard you say how you're going to have your Monterey, California show.
So I was interested in going.
The only thing is I probably have to go by myself.
I wanted to know if you thought that was weird.
It feels kind of weird going alone.
I've never really done that
but I just wanted to get your thoughts on it
man, hopefully I can make it out there.
Thanks.
Appreciate the call.
Let's remove me from the situation.
Just going to any show by yourself
or a movie or dinner.
If you have the confidence to do that,
good for you.
I've done that 10 times or so.
I've gone to movies.
I've gone to a concert by myself
just because I really wanted to see the artist.
I've gone to dinner by myself.
I'll wait more than 10 times.
I was just talking about shows.
So you can do it for a couple reasons.
One, because you're really secure
or like me, you're just really lonely and nobody wants to go with you.
But then you still go.
I think it's awesome.
If you want to go, go.
Because by the time you get in there anyway,
even if you're with somebody, it's like a movie.
Like during the movie, it's not like you're hanging out with your buddy.
You kind of just hanging out.
Yeah, and I feel like others talk.
Like you all have something in common.
Like you're coming to see Bobby.
You listen to the show.
You might meet other listeners.
Sure.
That happens.
I mean, for girls, I know that happens.
Because at my live podcast,
that happened to girls that came from totally different parts of the
country to Wichita for my show, they ended up becoming friends, and they both came alone.
I just want to make it about me in this situation.
Just make it about the show.
I like it.
Well, I think you should go.
If you want to go, go, I'll go by myself anywhere.
I have no problem.
Actually, I kind of like it now.
Now that I don't care if people are judging me at all, I'll just go.
And it's awesome to have to worry about anybody else.
So this or anything else, go by yourself.
It just shows you're confident.
That's pretty cool.
Here's Amy's Pile of Stories.
So Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, they've been married 27 years.
and they're having a second honeymoon
now that their three daughters
are out of the house.
You know, they light candles,
turn on the music, have some fun.
Here's Tim talking to Billboard about it.
Have some fun.
It's candle time.
It just made it all sound so.
What?
Tim makes it sound.
Yeah, okay, go ahead.
We had gotten married quickly.
We dated for a short time.
We got buried and then soon after had a baby.
So we didn't have a whole lot of time,
really, to get to know each other that well
until we had kids.
And now all of a sudden we have this time together.
It kind of turned into it.
We were like having our second honeymoon a little bit.
You know, light the candles, turning the music on.
I love that.
Have some fun.
And now when the kids come home, when they're there for about five days,
we're kind of like, you know, kind of, don't try to have somewhere to be.
One of the dad needs some candle time.
He still didn't make it sound as dirty as you did.
I don't mean to.
I know.
Yeah.
I know.
So the latest job being taken over by AI, psychics.
I probably believe that a little more.
They're probably using, you know, data.
from the past to predict the future.
It's not just Raymond.
More than it is some psychic, yeah.
Yeah, people are going to AI psychics
that use sophisticated algorithms
and machine learning techniques
to work out what lies ahead for you.
And yeah, bot psychics are better than humans
because they draw in wisdom
from their database
and they're not affected by emotions.
Psychics are full of crap.
Mostly, except for Amy's cousin,
except for Amy's cousin.
But it's psychic for real.
I say generally, here's the thing.
I say generally, I don't believe.
a psychic. No, I don't believe in a psychic. Sure. What about a medium? I don't know that
that's not true. I'm not saying that's not true. I can't prove it's not true, but I'm saying
when I go by and there's a door and it says palm reading $24, I don't believe that. There's no way
I can say there's no such thing as a psychic or some, there's no way I can say there's no such
thing as somebody who can connect to things that I can't connect with. It'd be impossible for me to
do so I won't do it. But what I will say is there's no such thing as a psychic that's like,
hey, pay me 50 bucks and I'll tell you your future.
Okay.
That's crazy.
The palms on your, the lines on your hand?
There's no way.
That's what they say.
One of those things where you do the paper folded up and you open it one, two, three, four.
And you flip it up.
Yeah.
That ain't, that ain't psychic.
All right, what else?
The latest trend among some men is bro talks.
The hashtag right now has 17 million views on TikTok.
And doctors say that because of TikTok, social media, it is increased men getting treatments like left and right.
So I've got it into my jaws because I grind so bad and it has helped.
And you look good too.
But there are no, this is not a place where wrinkles come.
No creases, man.
Motox looks good, dude.
Okay, thank you.
And then they did it.
They shot it into my head, like my temples.
What?
Well, that's where you also have pressure.
Because if you bite your jaws together, you know that muscle that comes out right
down your temples, they shot those muscles.
Dang, I didn't even realize we had muscles there.
And mine are pretty big because I just grind all the time.
But I can see how that works because I don't grind my teeth as bad.
And maybe I'm trying, but my muscles aren't working as hard.
It relaxes.
It sort of, I think the word they used, and I'm not an expert here, but paralyzes the muscles in a way to where they just.
Don't like that work.
Not at all.
People that get migraines.
Oh, yeah.
They get their entire head.
They'll get Botox in their head.
All in their scalp.
People that have sweating problems really bad into their arms.
They'll get it shot into their armpits or underarms, depending on which word you like.
So does it count that I have bro-talks even though I haven't done it for aesthetic reasons?
No, I don't think so.
I think bro-tox would be aesthetic.
Like I can't claim, mine's, I get it, but it's aesthetic.
But yours wouldn't be a bro.
Right.
Yeah.
No, but I'm just, I can't say.
I'm just owning mine.
Oh, it hurts me.
It's a little age.
Yeah, it was an age.
Oh, that's funny.
Hotox?
Yeah, I didn't know if I could say that.
You can't, I can't know.
People won't get mad at me.
All right.
It's not that he didn't.
You're that you're that. That's just a fine. I know.
That's just funny. Why wouldn't you say her talks?
Because ho talks and bro talks are. They rhyme. And Bo, Bo, Ho.
That's pretty funny. Okay, go ahead.
I'm Amy. That's my file.
That was Amy's pile of stories.
It's time for the good news.
With Amy.
Tell me something good.
So after moving to Nashville as a single woman and working as a ride chair driver,
Heather Lerman said that she felt uneasy,
never knowing if her next writer was going to be a day.
to her safety. So to address the issue, she started her own ride share company, and it's called
Nash Pink Ride. And she expects that it's going to be really popular with Bachelor
parties, but her main goal is to cater to locals, particularly single females like herself.
I'm a single female that moved here, and I've met so many like me, and I want them all to feel
safe. And every car is pink. Wow. So you're going to know it's her. I wouldn't even at a startup business
I know, right?
Like, how in the world?
Good for her.
I love the reason she's doing it.
I was in an Uber the other day.
And the driver was Haitian.
Forget his name.
Very thick accent, so I don't even know if I would say it right.
Yeah.
I don't think it was Pierre.
Is that common?
It's popular.
But he was a big fan of the show and knew about your kids being from Haiti.
Really?
Oh, that's so fun.
Yeah.
Oh, can he?
Cocation?
I don't know.
I didn't get his number.
Can he babysit?
Oh, okay.
You know what?
You could probably track back.
Let's reach out.
It's not even that.
I kept his card because I thought he was such a nice guy.
And I was like, I may use him sometime because he's like, hey, I also drive.
And if we have events and stuff, we always need a driver, like to drop us off at like doors and stuff.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
We definitely did this card.
Well, I thought I had his car.
It's in there somewhere.
You know, I don't know.
It's in my purse, man.
I got a lot stuff in my purse right now.
I'll get to it though.
But I thought it was pretty cool.
He was super cool.
And that's a great story, Amy.
Thank you.
That is what it's all about.
That was Tell Me Something Good.

I got that wrong.
