We have our girl Hillary Duff in here, and we can't wait for you to hear this episode. They put on Lizzie McGuire 2 a.m. Video on Demand. This guy's bobo-o-a-m.

2 a time it is. Lizzie McGuire. And I'm like... Wild, a wild batch you were with. It was like a first closet moment from me where I was like... You're like, I don't feel like she's hot, like the rest of that. No, no, no. I was like, she's beautiful.

But I'm appreciating her. different way than these boys are. I'm not like, but listen to Lascoe Dristas on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or whatever you get your podcast. This is Julian Edelman, host of Games with Names. On our latest episode, we got comedian, Blake Anderson from Workaholics and The Hilarious This Is Important Podcast. Let's go. We did beat them in improv. You had an improv against the team?

Yes, we would pull up their schools would be there with signs for us. It's competition. What you would. When is a bottle of gold slager.

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. It's unruly, it's unruly, it's unfrable, it's Untraditionally Lala. Listen to Untraditionally Lala on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. All right, Bobby here.

We are about to start the show. So it's before the show even starts today. So we're going to try something a bit different with the podcast. I was never a super fan of how the last podcast was done. We wanted to get a section of it up early because some folks are like, hey, we don't want to have to wait till noon to hear any of the show. I got that.

But I always hated putting up like a second version. of the show where a part of that clip was the same as you've already heard. So we would do like Early Bird and Full Show, and we're going to experiment like we always do. So we're just going to put up two halves of the show, which could be fine. I guess my only concern is if, once I'll dial down if the show is only like an hour and 30 minutes long,

that one end of it isn't way shorter than the other, or one's not like 50 minutes and 1 25. And we'll have to kind of figure out our pace as we go. But that's going to be the plan. So you'll see part one and part two. And it won't be any full show anymore unless the demand is just like, hey, man, play the full show again. We're going to do part one, which will load a little earlier

to meet people's desire to hear the show before noon. or I guess 1 p.m. sometimes in eastern. And two, I just don't want to repeat anything. So that's going to be the plan moving forward. That'll be what we try for the next. With today's June 4th, probably until like June 7th or 8th. So that'll be the plan until like June 8th. And then we will move on from there.

All right, cool. Thank you. Hey, welcome to Tuesday show. Morning, studio. Morning. No Amy here today. I got the call that Amy was sick. I was like, I'll still come in. I have a fever and a headache.

You're like, no, no, no. And I was like, don't. Then she was like, I can turn my microphone out at home. I was like, if you're sick, you're sick. You know, so Amy will not be here today. So it'll mostly just be a bunch of dudes. Oh, let's go. Later on, we'll do dude news.

The get to know your question as our listeners are asking us questions to get to know us a little bit better. How many brothers and sisters do you have or did you have when growing up? Lunchbox. I have an older brother and an older sister. my brother is two years older than me. My sister is one year older than me. My parents, you know, real quick got us done. And we were all in school together.

It was awesome. And do you feel like you have any of that, you know, youngest child syndrome? Would the syndrome be like, I need attention? Look at me. Hey, yeah, I got to be loud. So people pay attention. Yeah, absolutely.

Because my brother and sister had the same teachers as I did. They're like, oh, that's your brother and sister. This is going to be easy. And I was like, you guys got no. idea. You were different than your brother and sister? Yeah, they were real quiet, never got in trouble, didn't talk in class. One teacher in high school asked my mom,

same dad? Well, that's rude. That's funny. Was she kidding? I don't know. Either way, that's funny. It was on back to school night and they were like, did they have the same dad? Hey, that's when teachers could ask that.

Eddie? I have one older brother and one younger sister. I'm right in the middle. Middle child. Yeah. What does that mean? That you didn't get really, like you felt alone a lot of the times because all the, no, yeah. The younger kid was getting all the attention because they were demanding it. The older kid got all the attention because they were first. Yeah, I kind of had a lonely childhood.

Like, I joke with my kids that like whenever I throw the football up in the air and they catch it myself, like that's all I did when I was a kid. I'm showing you a video of me as a kid, kids. Yes, pretty much it. I have, I'm the oldest. I have a younger sister, full sister. She's four years younger than I am. I have a half-brother that I don't know from my biological father who I don't have a relationship with.

But I know he's out there somewhere. He's younger. He's younger. I'm older than everybody. I've had a couple step siblings through the years that aren't anymore. And then who knows what else is happening out there. Did you meet all your step-siblings or no? Yeah, I lived with them all.

Through different seasons. Sizzins. Wow. At one point, because we lived in 900. 500 square foot house and there were one two three four there were six of us living in a 900 square foot house two bedrooms wow there were six of us so i slept on the couch because i never got a bedroom but then once it just got so crowded even though i was on the couch i moved and lived in the camper that's why i lived in the camper for so long little space to get away from all that yeah i don't

and it didn't have an air conditioner obviously in summer would be miserable i think it was just about having not so much space but like an ounce of privacy because that was like 14, 15, 16 years old. I would take the cordless phone and just take it out to the camper. We didn't have a cell phone. So I took it out to the camper. But then it would die and I'd be like, it's just a brick. So take it out, then charge it all day and then take it back out at night.

And the camper had a table. There wasn't a bed in there, but it had a table with two like chair couches. And so what you did is you took the table and you turned it over and you put a mattress on top of that. And that ended up being the bed. That's like the design of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It would be in the bed. I never even made the table again.

There's no need. I just eating the bed. Maybe that's why I ate in the bed as I got older. That's right. That's what you do. Stay in a night in the bed. All right, glad you guys are here. Thank you for being a part of the show again.

There will be no Amy, but we will do our best. Nah, we won't. And let's just see what happens. Coming up the mailbag. You send an email and we read it all the air. It's something we call Bobby's mail bag. Hello, oh, oh, oh, oh, Bobby. I had a friend who wanted me to take a picture for her.

it was her and a group of friends all out of the bar she insisted I be the one to take it while during the process I accidentally dropped the phone the screen cracked because my friend didn't have a case on her phone she wants me to pay for it but I don't think it's my fault since she asked me to take the picture and it most likely cracked

because she chooses to not have a phone case who is at fault signed Megan the phone dropper what I want to say first is I believe Megan the phone dropper is a little irritated because she was not asked to be in the picture there's always the one that's like you take it Like, oh.

Yeah. You want me to take it because I wanted to kind of be in it. So I would say, Megan, the phone dropper is probably a little irritated at that. I get it. It's not on you. You dropped her phone, but you didn't say let me use your phone. It's very delicate. She should have, first of all, where's the phone case?

She doesn't have one. It's tough. If you had said, let me use your phone and dropped it, I would think you would be liable. The fact that she gave you the phone. to use and it was an accident I think that's on her Bones look when my kids like they say like yeah the ball just like hit the window like no no no

you threw the ball and the ball hit the window so you gotta take responsibility but she wasn't at your kid you didn't tell your kids it doesn't matter if I told them to throw the ball or not their hand through the ball through the window so her hands grab the phone dropped it it's on her dude she wasn't doing anything for herself It was an accident.

It would be like somebody, me going, oh, I can't. I can't justify that. I can't. She's already mad. She wasn't in the picture. I feel bad for her there. There wasn't a case. I feel bad for her there.

Okay. Yeah, that's dumb. And the girl said, take this picture for us. Maybe she was like, I don't want to take it. I'm known as slippery hands, Megan. You can always say no. You can always say, ah, not taking the picture. I'm saying you don't pay for it.

I'm saying you don't. You say you do. Lunchbox? You don't pay for it. Look, and I don't think it was an accidental drop. I think it was an accident. I think it was a, hey, you're not going to let me in the picture. Oops, it slipped out of my hand, but you're not responsible.

They asked you to take the picture. You're not responsible. She's responsible for not having a case on her phone. I'm going to agree with lunchbox. There's no. I'm not fully on the same page. You never do that. But I say she asked you to do it.

It was an accident because she asked you to do it. Then it was an accident. You don't have to pay. That's where we stand. Had it been, let me use your phone for something. And then you're, I don't know, sending a picture to yourself or anything else. and you drop it, that's then on you. What about offer to pay?

Maybe she'll say now. No. She's not going to. She asked her to not being a picture of their friend. She doesn't care about this person at all. It says a lot about it. All right. No Amy today, so we don't get the motherly theory.

But we got it though. We got it. We got it. We got your email and we let it on the air. Now it's found to close Bobby's mail bag. Yeah. The guy was sentenced for forging a Purdue professor's signatures to change his grades. So he appeared to have a grade point average of 3.85.

He changed the grades of F, D, and C to B plus an A. His real GPA is 1.68. Dude, that's rough. What was he trying to sign, though? Because doesn't that stuff, like, go somewhere and then the grades are, like, electronically done? So they asked the professor why she changed the grades, like the register's office did. And she was like, I didn't. So they went and investigated.

The problem is you can't go from a 1.68 to a 3.8. Not just like that. That screams someone's up to something. Did you guys ever do anything in school? What's the most trouble you ever got into in school? Ever get suspended? Oh, yeah. Every, what?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You guys got suspended in school? Yes, in school and then one outside. Ray, did you get in trouble? Yeah, me and my buddy went in the girls' locker room. And we're both guys. No, we get that. What were you doing there?

Did you do that? What happened? It was during, I believe it was a school dance in middle school. And we're just like, hey, we should go in the girl's locker. And that would be funny. And then we went in there and one of the parents was in there, a chaperone. And what happened to you? She told on us, we definitely got detention.

My parents, I think I was grounded for like two years. I think I could stay at a friend's house. But no suspension? Detention. Okay. You got suspended out of school? Yeah. Yeah.

Punched a kid. And, dude, he didn't fight back. I just punched him. He started crying. Wait, what? Yeah. We were in choir, and so we were watching a movie. It was like, I think sound of music maybe.

And I was sitting down and he was behind me. He kept messing with my ear. Like touching my earloat. I'm like, dude, stop. Stop. Stop messing my ear. This was middle school. Seventh grade, I think.

And he just kept doing it over and over. And I said, dude, one more time, I'm going to punch you. He did it. So I turned around and punched him. Where? In the face. Right on the cheek, dude. Like just crossed him right in the cheek.

And then he just went. And I was like, what happened to you? Nothing. I was like, uh-oh, uh-oh. No, what happened to you like with punishment? At the time, nothing. So then the class is over. I'm like, this is cool.

I got away. You got away with it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then next period, knock on the door. The principal's office. Can I speak to Eddie? Come over here. Exactly.

The point in the out of the, yeah. So I went and then like, and then there he was. He was like, he still crying. And his face was all red. Like, did you punch him? Like, yeah, I punched him. All right. Suspension.

How many days? Just one. That was the one where I had to go home. And what did your parents say when you were suspended? I mean, I don't really remember much. Like, I don't think that they made that big of a deal about it. Because, you know, at that time, I got a lot of tardies. So I was in detention all the time.

But in school detention. In school. This is my first out of school suspension. Lunchbox? Yeah. Seventh grade, I got in a fight in middle school because the day before I was walking down the hall. And this kid, it was like right when the bell rang going to the buses. And some kid kicked me in the back and then ran off.

And so the next morning, I went up. and he was getting stuff out of his locker, and I just took him and bam, shud them right into his locker, turn around, hit him a couple times, and then teachers broke it up, sent me home for two days. And then I got suspended in high school

because we were playing the volleyball playoffs and we were playing Conley, and they had a sign behind their bench, said, trash the Trojans. And me and my buddy Dom went over there and ripped it all up and showered them with a sign. Yeah, he got to spend it three days.

Wow. What did your parents say? when you got in trouble there. Oh, nothing. They're just like, ah, whatever. They don't really care. I mean, they sort of like my parents were, like, my brother was two years older than me, and so he was graduating and he was throwing away all this stuff from school,

and he had permission slips to get out of class, and he was throwing him in the trash, and my mom picked him out. She goes, you don't think your brother and sister will need those? Because they were forged from the office. They already had stamps on them, so you just had to fill them out. You could leave class whenever you wanted. And so my mom got him out of the trash for me.

So, I mean, it's kind of like, hey, you know what I mean? you're just kids being kids. Interesting. And now we know why he's. That explains a lot. Like he is now. I never got suspended from school. Nothing?

Never like you even sent out of the classroom? Yeah, I got sent out the classroom once. In French class, on a record player, they used to play this old Julius Caesar play once a year and it was miserable. But it wasn't because it was miserable.

It was just sitting there. And I used to like the Beastie Boys, so I went up and was like scratching the record. Wic-a-wick-a-wick-a-wick-a-wick in front of the class. The teacher walked down while I was doing it. Like a DJ? Yeah. With Julius.

See, that's funny, man. I thought it was funny, too. I was like, Julius, wika-sizu-wika. And so I got sent out for the day. And I bet you a lot of the teachers are like, that's funny. Right, they had to go back and be like, you know what's something funny? Yes. And Bobby's up to it again.

But no, they kicked me out of class for a day. Dude, my biggest scam ever, though, was I used to, like, just fail really bad at tests. So then there, it was those scantrons. remember you had to bubble in like little A through D or whatever. And the teacher was like, you're really feeling these a lot. Like, can you see the scan trot? I'm like, you know what? That's a good idea.

I really can't see them. And so I thought I was like, oh, perfect. Like, she's just, I'm just going to get out of it. No, she's like, all right. So you'll take a separate test away from everyone else. And I still fail. Did she ever get caught cheating? Oh, yeah.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. So I think it was my junior year. We had to say government. And here's the stupid part is the teacher gave us the final. beforehand. If we just could memorize it and look at them, I was like, why would I memorize it?

I'll just write down every single answer. A, B, C. And it was 100 questions. So I had 25 little on each sheet of paper, a little four squares. And I was using them and I passed him to park. He wanted to use them. And then as he was passing them back, the teacher saw me. And I slid him under my butt and I just sat there. And the teacher just stared at me. Bell rings. And I just sat there because I couldn't go in. You didn't want to get up. You're a trap. I didn't want to get up.

And so finally, everybody leaves. I'm like, well, I got to go. And I try to slide my hand underneath and grab it. And he's like, can I see what's in your hand? Man, why didn't you eat him? He was why? I mean, I don't know. He knew what's up? And I was like, man, I'm busting.

I show it to him. He's like, I could fail you or you can come tomorrow. So the day after school was out. I had to come and help him take down all the stuff in his classroom. Man, that's bad. Yeah, that stinks. Luckily, they didn't fail you. Yeah. But, I mean, who else?

I mean, you get caught cheating all the time. You got caught cheating? Yeah, all the time. In college or high school? All my bad stuff was middle school. I think I just had to get it out of me. Go ahead. And by the time I got to high school, I was pretty clean.

But it was just that. Like when people had just cheat sheets, they just go around and go around. And at that point, when it come to me, it'd be like, I'm like, yeah, give it the sake. I'd make a big deal out of it. And the teacher totally would see me do it. Or. You'd be the one getting caught with the cheat sheet, you lose? Dude, or one time, five of us had the exact same tests.

Like, all the answers were the same. And the teacher's like, you five, like come over here. Like, why did you guys get the exact same score? You got the right answer is right and the wrong answer is wrong. It's very suspicious. Sure enough. We all cheated. Sure enough, yeah.

It's sort of like you have A day and B day. And so A day would have the same quizzes as B day in English class. So they took it on one day and then, oh, tell us answers, tell us answers. And we knew the answer. So we went down, we wrote down the exact same answers. But Ms. Whiteside caught wind of it. And she had switched number two and three. And if you didn't pay attention, you wrote down all the answers and we're like,

I'm glad to see some of you guys actually were like, study, studied. She goes, no, cheated. I switched two and three. We're like, oh. Got them. I never cheated off other people, but I would let people cheat off me for a price. Or I would just do their homework. You would never just like let them be able to see your paper on your desk?

For a price. You're like pay-per-view. I had to hustle to make money. and that's how I made money in school, was doing people's homework. But also, when I got to like 11th to 12th grade, I was awesome at 11th, the 12th grade stuff because I was doing people's homework

when I was in 7th and 8th grade, so I'd have to learn what they were doing at 11th to 12th grade to get my dollar a page. It must be nice, being smart. I had to work to figure it out. Dude, we had to cheat just to pass school, man. That's right, man. Look how we got here.

Yeah, you guys had a tough. This guy named Thomas Gray in Idaho is basically, it's not really floating down the river like you guys do where you just get drunk. Not on the tube. Yeah, he's not tubing with beers. That's fun.

In southeast Idaho, it's like kind of rapid rivers. And he goes and he hits like a log jam and some rocks. He's thrown from his boat. He has to like swim over to the shore. But he's so far away from like any road, any people. His phone doesn't have cell service. And so he spent two nights there. Whoa.

One, he was hurt because he heard his leg, couldn't walk. Two, he was exhausted. And he dragged his leg about 23 miles over the days. without food, relying on creeks for hydration. Oh my goodness. Until he finally ran into some people. You know at some point he thought it was over. Maybe, but I mean, the thing is, he's in Idaho.

And yes, that's vast wilderness. But it's not like the middle of the ocean where you know you're not going to be found. Like probably you're just like on high alert for anybody because people are constantly through there. But still, that sucks. To the people that found Thomas, great job. The sheriff's office awarded them. And I don't know. That dude, you have to really want to live to drag your hurt leg for 23 miles.

And you know what? Thomas does and so do I. You guys have given up five minutes in, not me. That's what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. On a recent episode of the podcast Money and Wealth with John Hobriant, I sit down with Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money.

What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth to the people when they're no longer here? We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth, starting with the mindset shifts. Too many of us were never, ever taught. Financial education is not always about, like, I'm going to get rich. That's great. It's about creating an atmosphere for you to be able to take care of yourself and leave a strong financial legacy for your family. If you've ever felt you didn't get the memo on money, this conversation is for you to hear

I'm Cheryl Stray, author of Wild and Tiny Beautiful Things. I'm excited to share that I have a new podcast called Mind Over Mountain. In each episode, I interview athletes, adventurers, and adrenaline seekers to discuss the inner landscapes and life experiences that informed and inspired their extraordinary feats. I also bring a bit of advice into the mix so we too can better understand how to face our own seemingly insurmountable challenges. Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to pull out what you already have inside.

We're coming into this world, fighting for our lives. All I'm going to do is pull out what you already got inside. We're there to support and celebrate each other. And that's not like your story versus my story. You're going to walk up and over that dang mountain. You're not just going to put your mind over it. Yep, yep, exactly. And if I can't walk up and over it, I'm going to go through it.

Listen to Mind Over Mountain every Thursday on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you. you get your podcasts. We're going to act out three famous movie scenes. The first one's the easiest. See if you can name the movie, Masterpiece Theater. Ready, guys? Ready.

According to my Navi computer, the... Shut up. Just shut up, you idiot. Sheriff, this is no time to panic. This is the perfect time to panic. I'm lost. They're going to move from their house in two days, and it's all your fault. My fault.

If you had him pushed me out the window in the first place... Oh, yeah. Well, if you hadn't shown up with your stupid little cardboard spaceship and taken away everything that was important to me, Don't talk to me about importance because of you, the future of the entire universe is in jeopardy. What are you talking about? Right now, poised at the edge of the galaxy, Emperor Zerg has been secretly building a weapon with the destructive capacity to annihilate an entire planet. I alone have information that reveals this weapon's only weakness.

And you, my friend, are responsible for delaying my rendezvous with Star Command. You are a tie scene. Wow. Can you name that movie from the 90s? This is the easy one. I got it. Man, I was so lost for the whole thing until the end. Very end.

I had no idea. Eddie? Give me Toy Story. Lunchbox? Toy Story. Got it. At first I thought maybe die hard, like sheriff, throwing out of a window. It was like, Emperor Zerg.

Did that give you the... All that. Kind of is like, all right, this isn't real. All right, one to one. Let's try number two. Ready, Ray? Yep. All right.

I assume everyone's found time to complete their poem, except for Mr. Donner. All right, anyone brave enough to read? There's aloud? I will. Lord, here we go. I hate the way you talk to me and the way you cut your hair. I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare. I hate your big, dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind.

I hate you so much, it makes me sick. It even makes me rhyme. I hate it. I hate the way you're always right. I hate it when you lie. I hate it when you make me laugh Even worse when you make me cry I hate it when you're not around

And the fact you didn't call But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you Not even close Not even a little bit Not even at all Same I think I'm in

You have an idea of lunchbox? Yeah, I'm in for the win Eddie. Oh boy I mean context clues I'm thinking the notebook Is that your answer? Yes

Lunchbox Well I mean hate So I put 10 things I hate about you That is correct 10 things I hate about you What? Okay, I picked the wrong context clues And finally

Lunchbox is up one This is the hardest of them Here we go What are you doing? Help me! The packs wasted It's over What's the matter with you?

You can still do this. Jesus Christ, listen to yourself. You're obsessed. You've never seen what that thing can do So don't even talk to me about it. I just saw it. You've never seen it miss this house and miss that house and come after you? Is that what you think it did?

Jesus, why can't you just forget it? You don't understand, okay? You never know. Talk to me. Listen, things go wrong. You can't explain it. You can't predict it. Killing yourself won't bring your dad back.

I'm sorry he died. That was a long time ago. You got to move on. Stop living in the past and look at what you've got right in front of you. Zane. Named that movie. My man for the wind. Watch box?

Armageddon. Eddie, you can tie it. Twister, correct. What? Twister. We don't have any more scenes. It's just a tie. It's a tie?

Our main producer, our executive producer, Scoobo Steve's Facebook account has been hacked and taken over. He can't get back in. He's been like, that's not me. Because the person is still living out Scuba Steve's life. So we have some listeners that are called to share their stories. We have T.J on the phone right now. TJ, what's going on, buddy? What happened to you?

It was my brother's wife. I texted him. I texted her trying to figure out what was going on with them. And I got a text later in the day that says that she was hacked. So I texted the account to try to talk to them, and they told me that they wanted a $1,000 Amazon gift card for them to give me, for them to give me the account login info back. And they wanted the money up front first.

How would you even trust that if you gave them, them the card, they would give it back. Because, yeah, you hate to have somebody hold that against you. Extortion, I believe. Yeah, black, no, that's not blackmail. Extortion. Dang it. So, but you have nothing on them because you don't even know who it is.

Let's say somebody hacked lunchboxes of the account. He's got, you know, a few hundred thousand followers. It might be worth him giving a couple hundred bucks just going, you know what? It's not worth the headache. I hate that it's happening. But how do you know they even give it back and they just don't run with your card? It's not like scammers are honorable. No, they're not.

What did you guys do, T.J? My brother's wife kept texting Facebook and emailing and calling trying to get the account back, and they finally gave it back a few months later. They did, the scammer did, or Facebook, it took three months to get it back. Facebook actually gave it back to him. Yeah, I don't think the scammer gives it back, dude. Well, I don't either. Maybe he gets a conscious. It's like they steal a car and they just leave it somewhere.

They don't give it back to you, you know what I mean? A scammer gets a conscious. Has that ever happened? Nah, no, no. TJ, we appreciate that story. Have a good day, man. Let's go to Jenny, who is on the phone right now. Jenny, good morning.

Welcome to the Bobby Bone Show. So I got hacked over a year ago, and the hacker went as far as seeing my spouse's name attached to my account, and they messaged him asking for $600, and they would give me my access back. So same kind of deal, like a hostage. Hey, can you do like, I want my account back? I know where you live. I have a set of skills. I will find you.

Try that. Yeah. So did they pay the 600? Did you guys pay it back? No. No, we didn't have paid it, but they message everybody asking for money. I ended up running into like my first grade teacher around town. And she was like, are you okay?

I saw that you needed money. Oh, no. And this is like, yeah, like 20, 30 years. Actually, yeah, 30 years ago, I'm like, no, it's a small town. So she reached out to people. But I'm like, oh my gosh, how embarrassing. Yeah, it's like at church. They're doing a fundraiser for you.

You're like, no, no, no, no, no, I'm okay. Dang. That's why I have like nine-factor authentication. Nine? Yeah, they need a text. They have me spit in a cup. I stole sample. They get it all.

Before I can log in once, I've got to give them pretty much everything. Interesting. Yeah, it's pretty good. I haven't even had sense. So let's go to Elizabeth. Elizabeth in Louisiana is on the phone. Elizabeth, what is your story there? Good morning.

Thank you for calling. So I was calling to tell you all about time. My sister got stamped out of $5,000. Oh, no. Go ahead. Oh. So it's funny because at the time we were both. Well, my mom said a plan.

So I got a phone call first, and they were like, oh, this is this a social security office? There was like a breach on your social security number. And I was like, oh, well, that's weird because y'all don't ever call. It's always a letter. It says, you're not real. So they got mine to hug up. Then they called her.

Well, she lives in a different town than me. She's like 21 at the time. And they told her, like she believed them. So she started giving the information. And they told her that there was a car on the side of the interstate. in Texas with her license plate number and she's like, that's impossible. I don't live there.

And they're like, well, it's connected to a crime. So she started panicking. She was like, well, what do I need to do? Oh, no. So they had her convinced that, like, this mob was trying to frame her for a crime. She's crying, her eyes out. She left work.

They'd on the phone with them the whole time, went and bought $5,000 worth of gift cards and read them the numbers. Oh, no. I'm not laughing. No, I'm not laughing. Because I would totally fall for this. I wouldn't fall for it, but I just imagine when you're reading them the gift cards,

the one who's got a live one's like, guys, come up in the gym. We're never going to believe it. And they have to hit mute so they don't laugh on the other end? So, okay, she reads all the gift cards, and then what happens? So they tell her they're going to move it from, like, her account to the gift cards to a secure account, and they should be, you know, set free. Well, my mom happened to call her, and so she put some. these people hold and she's telling my mom and my mom's like it's a scam hang up it's a scam

but it was too late so the funniest part though it's not funny is that it was taken out of her um she used her student loan money but she's still paying on it so every month she remembers that's not funny that's not i mean her sister is laughing at her right now that's not funny i was never laughing i hate to hear that but if you're laughing i'll allow like does your sister laugh now She gets a little, like, sore about it because we mention it, like, once a year, like, that family gets together. You got to stop doing that. Oh, no. At least no one did, gave up all their money, like Reagan did.

And she said a lot. What kind of gift cards did she send them? And it's, like, Target gift cards, best-by gift cards. Just like you're running the middle gift cards, you find out, like, you know, a gas station or whatever. I hate that for her because she was freaking out. I wasn't thinking clearly. She was triggered, obviously. didn't want to go to jail. The mob's after her for God's sake.

We all do crazy things the mob was after us. I totally would have fallen for that. Elizabeth, thank you for the call, and we hope it never happens to your sister again. Yeah, Reagan, I hope you're okay. Reagan, not to prayers, Reagan. All right, thank you, Elizabeth. All right, bye.

Here's a voice from last night. Hey, this is the redneck in Oregon, and I got a morning corny for Amy. Why are chickens so funny? I'm pretty good. I like that. So Amy's not here. So I'm going to do the morning corny

and I have some specially prepared jokes. I've been sitting on these waiting for my moment to shine. Oh, you've had these for a while? Yeah, I even have some JVs. You want to hear a couple JVs? Yeah, yeah. My grandfather used to say

when one door closes, another one opens, wonderful man, but terrible carpenter. Hey, JV, knock it down I just think you guys don't get it. I don't think you guys get it. I don't get it at all. Listen again, my grandfather used to say when one door closes, another one

opens. Wonderful man, terrible carpenter. Okay, fine. No, what he's saying is... My mother used to say, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Wonderful mom. Terrible surgeon. Oh, man.

Yeah, these are good. The way to a man's heart's through his stomach. No, I get it. I get it. It'd be more through his chest, right? No, you guys... Never mind. Do you have a handful of these?

What you're about to do? I should have be penalized because you guys don't get them. Hey, man, the morning corny. This must be kind of dumb jokes. You know what I mean? Why does scuba divers always fall backwards into the water? Why? If they fell forward, they would stay in the boat.

Next level, Bobby's morning cordy. Jokes. They're making me think. Anyway, I got some of those. Great, man. Can't wait. Can you explain the carboner one? Nah, it's okay. On a recent episode of the podcast, Money and Wealth with John Ho Bryant,

I sit down with Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money. What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth to the people when they're no longer here. We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth, starting with the mindset shifts. Too many of us were never, ever taught.

Financial education is not always about, like, I'm going to get rich. That's great. It's about creating an atmosphere for you to be able to take care of yourself and leave a strong financial legacy for your family. If you've ever felt you didn't get the memo on money, this conversation is for you to hear more. Listen to Money and Wealth with John O'Brien from the Black Effect Network on the I'd Heart Radio app,

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Hey, earners, what's up? Look, money is something we all deal with, but financial literacy is what helps turn income into real wealth. On each episode of the podcast, Earn Your Leisure, we break down the conversations you need to understand money, investing, and entrepreneurship. From stocks and real estate to credit, business, and generational wealth,

we translate complex financial topics into real conversations everyone can understand. Because the truth is, most people will never talk how money really works. But once you understand the system, you can start to build within it. That means ownership, smarter investing, and creating opportunities not just for yourself, but for the next generation. If you want to learn how to build wealth, understand the markets, and think like an owner, Earn Your Leisure is the podcast for you.

Hi, everyone. I'm Cheryl Stray, author of Wild and Tiny Beautiful Things. I'm excited to share that I have a new podcast called Mind Over Mountain. In each episode, I interview athletes, adventurers, and adrenaline seekers to discuss the inner landscapes and life experiences that informed and inspired their extraordinary feats. I also bring a bit of advice into the mix so we too can better understand how to face our own seemingly insurmountable challenges. Do you know what I'm going to do?

I'm going to pull out what you already have inside. We're coming into this world, fighting for our lives. All I'm going to do is pull out what you already got inside. We're there to support and celebrate each other. And that's not like your story versus my story. You're going to walk up and over that dang mountain. You're not just going to put your mind over it.

Yep, yep, exactly. And if I can't walk up and over it, I'm going to go through it. Listen to Mind Over Mountain every Thursday on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Here's Amy's Pile of Stories. Amy's not here today. My name is Bobby. I will walk you through this.

Do you clean before you go on vacation? Yes. I don't, but my wife does. So you get the benefits of it. Right. But she's like, hey, guys, we got to clean the house before we leave. Absolutely. Because?

Because when you come back, you want it to be clean. It's like starting fresh when you come back. It makes sense. My wife does the same thing. never really thought about it like that. When I live by myself, I really didn't have messes anyway, except for like one spot of the house, and I could easily not go back to that one spot.

But yeah, 75% of people clean before vacation because after getting back from vacation, you're usually tired. And the last thing you want to do is come back to a dirty house. The top five things people feel like they must do before going on vacation. Number one is the laundry, top priority. Number two is the dishes.

I hate the dishes, but that seems like, hot priority because food can get all gross. That's got to be number one because the smell. Number three, the bathroom, then number four to sweep, vacuum, and mop. That's from SWNS. Never thought about it, but it does make sense. It's also why people make their beds a lot of the time so they can come back and the beds already made more so than making it just for themselves right then. I mean, think about it. Can you imagine going in a hotel room and it just being like left used? But that's somebody else's used. But say it was yours. Even when you do like make a mess in your hotel room and you come back later that day or else. And they didn't clean it up. It's so messy, man.

I'm paying for that. I expect it to be like made up, though. OJ. Simpson's driver's license is going up for auction. That's cool. Would you want it? No, but that's cool. That's pretty cool. He died, by the way, in case your guest forgot.

But the cards seller, Jonathan Lepore, now what he's doing is because he knows that if he's selling it, he's going to get some backlash. He says he's donating 10% of all proceeds to a domestic violence foundation, which is good. Yeah, smart. He told the website that he was initially going to just give the card away, but he's like, nah, I'm just going to sell it and get rid of it. The license was issued August of 2007, about one month before OJ robbed a Las Vegas sports memorabilia dealer.

That's why I ended up getting him put in jail, not the murders. Correct. He was acquitted of that. The auction ends June 6th, so you have two days. I'm looking. It's a Florida driver's license. How much? I don't see a price on this.

Not in this story. Would you want it? I don't think. I mean, think about being in a bar, dude. That would be tough. And they're like, let me see your ID. Yeah. You'd give him the OJ one?

They would take it from you. No, no, no, no. You're like, I bought that. You're making jokes in front of the balancer. Who cares about the balancer? Man, I don't know. I have trouble with some of that stuff. Yeah, criminals.

I get that. People that kill people or like paintings from Hitler. You ever see those? People don't know those. No, I don't want that. The current bet's $2,400. That's a lot of money. And it has a signature.

but it's not his his signature you know they do the you care about the signature an amazon package was delivered to a burning home and the amazon driver did not call 911 oh he's just completing his route man this is almost as bad as when they throw my packages in the bushes yes almost amazon's apologizing after a video shows one of their drivers delivering a package to a home that was on fire the family wasn't there at the time and the driver did not call 911 so there's a service for in garage delivery they open, you know, Amazon goes up, opens the garage door, they put the package inside, $1.99. That's what the guy did, and there was smoke coming out.

Like my brother, he worked for FedEx, and he said that if he didn't finish his route, like a certain amount of time, like it wasn't good, and he'd be backed up, and he'd be at work for 10 hours. So in this guy's mind, probably, like, I've got to go. They were looking at some security footage. They saw the delivery person, open the garage door, deliver a package.

The door opens, and the driver's walking through smoke. That's not good. Oh, the package inside. That's not good. The fire was in the early stages, so it wasn't. not like engulfing the house, but it was a cloud of smoke. It looked like a music video from the 80s.

Here I go looking on my home. I know. Call 911 in the way out, man. I hear you. What he did to is he put the package down and took a picture of it like they do, but in the smoke. He didn't call 911. The fire trucks didn't arrive for three hours after that. Oh, no.

The package was destroyed by the fire as well. But he has proof that he dropped it off while it wasn't. He doesn't destroyed front of the door. You bring up a good point. Maybe the guy thinks it's like barbecuing or something. That's what I was thinking. But, man, if it's that much smoke. Are you okay to drop off the package, call 911 on the way out and just keep moving?

Yes. Okay. So that's okay. He just didn't do that. Correct. I don't think you have to call and then just sit there. And like maybe get a garden hose or anything? There's smoke kind of billowing out.

Yeah, you don't have to fight it yourself. Okay. You can call 911 and move on. But he probably, I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt. He probably thought, Okay, something's happening in the house. It's not my business. I don't see a fire.

Yeah, let's go with that. A tough one. Let's go with that. I know. A flight attendant was arrested for what investigators found to be a buttload of gold, literally. She had the gold. She was. Oh.

Keyster. 960 grams of gold. And she was traveling it, keystering it. Why can't you just check that? Yeah, why don't you just bring that on your carry on? Is that suspicious to have a bunch of gold? It must have. have been, it must have been stolen or it must have been not her gold or, yeah.

I mean, whatever it was, why not just put in your pocket? Well, probably because you don't want it to be seen it anyway. You just put it in your butt. Have you ever seen that movie Maria Full of Grace? That's where she's like traveling from Columbia to U.S. And she has drugs in her. Yeah. And one of them explodes.

Oh, really? And she only has a certain amount of time to like. I don't like that. Yeah. I don't like that. That's from News 9 Live. But a lot of people must be pulling this off. if that's just the, you know.

Dude, I'm not doing any of that. Okay, let me ask you, how much to Keister anything? Well, it depends what we're talking. Yeah, I don't know. I got a price. I got a price for anything. Million dollars? Yeah, for sure, for sure.

I'm in. Call me Mr. Keister then. You guys are crazy. All right, close it up. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news. With producer Eddie. Yeah, I hope it's not been good.

Marie is a teacher for 25 years. She lives in New York, and her daughter was like, you need to sign up for this HGTV giveaway. It's like money. They give you a free house and all this stuff. She's like, no, no, no, I'm not going to do that. Finally, she's like, fine, I'll just sign up. Leave me alone. She signs up.

Well, a few months later, they contact her. You are the winner. That's crazy. I don't think it was a scam. Oh, for sure. Listen what she want. She want a dream home in Florida. Like a home.

A home home in Florida. On top of that, a check for $100,000. Oh, my God. And a Mercedes Ben's E-Class. What? Yeah, but check this out. So then, like, what HGTV did, they called her school and said, all right, get all the teachers, get the principal, get her daughters together, and we're going to make her think that she wants some teacher appreciation thing, get her to the school, and then we'll present it. And they did.

They got everyone together. And she was like, wow, I am a good teacher. Nah, it's not about teaching. That's a massive prize. Yeah. Is this only eligible for teachers? No, anyone. Man, I need to start looking into those.

I've never heard of this. Right. Why don't more people tell me about this? I'd have signed up 100 times. It's the 2024 HGTV dream home competition. Dang. Imagine winning a house. Imagine winning something that we give away.

Like, we give away trips and stuff. And sometimes the people that win will call us and go, the trip was awesome. We feel like their celebrities is us because we're like, wow, you actually won. That's crazy. They rarely call us after they win, but we give it away. I just would think it was a scam.

The whole time I would be like, there's no way this is real. But at what point, when you're driving the Mercedes? I guess even after I sell everything and the money's in my account, I'm like, I don't know about this. No, here it is. A smart home, 2024 Dream Home.

That's pretty awesome. Great story. I love the teacher got it. We love teachers. That is what it's all about. That was tell me something good. If you guys get a minute, go and check out the Bobbycast with Zach Williams. Zach is a Christian artist.

He's really good. But his whole story is he was in a rock band, got on the road, was going way hard. but then realized that he had a family and he couldn't continue doing exactly how he was doing it if he was going to stay healthy and if he was going to do it for his family. So he quit mid-tour. He went home and he talks about finding God in a closet

and then he talks about how he got a record deal after giving up and just playing music in church. It's a fantastic bobbycast. I'm only going to play a part of it now, but I encourage you to go check it out. Go search for the bobbycast on IHeartRadio and check out the Zach Williams episode. Here he is.

Came home from Europe and canceled my shows, quit my band. What did they say? They were not happy. It was not good. I mean, because we were, you know, we were as good as anybody at that time. We were doing shows of Blackberry Smoke and bands like that, and it was like we could have been easily about to sign a record deal. But I was afraid if I didn't get out of that band, I was not going to make it.

And so I came home, June 10th, 2012. My wife was getting our kids ready for school. When the house was clear, everybody was gone. I walked into my closet, got the shoes up, cleared them out of the floor. I got on my hands and knees and just said, God, can you save me? And I said, I'm sick and tired of being this guy. I don't want to do this anymore. I don't care if I play music ever again.

I just want to be a good husband, good father. If you can use me, use me. And, man, it was like this weight just instantly lifted. like, hmm. And I felt like God was just kind of in the closet with me, just saying, welcome home. And so that was kind of my, that was where I stopped. And so we found a church, started going to this church in our hometown. And six months into going to church there, the worship pastor asked me to lead a song. And I sang Redeemed for the first time. And I stood on stage that first time. That song that you heard. Yeah. Still on stage that time at church for the first time singing that

song and it was the first time that I ever felt comfortable on stage in my own skin. There was no performance. There was no look at me. Hey, I can sing good. Look at all the stuff I can do. It was just this emotional thing that I was attached to. And I come home and told Christ, I said, I think this is what I'm supposed to be doing. And within the year, the church asked me to come to work for them part-time and help them launch a campus and become a worship leader. And so I started leading worship at church. and I started writing songs, and I was writing Christian music like new things, but I was still writing them in kind of my southern country kind of way,

and I was testing them out at church on people and playing them, and I was hearing stories from everybody, and hearing their stories and sharing my stories, and so I was writing all these kind of like songs coming out of these places of my life. And I got invited to Nashville by a guy named Jonathan Smith, who's a producer here in town and a songwriter, and he was actually from my hometown. How do you find you?

How did he know who you were? So they come over to visit for Christmas in 2015, and I was singing a, I was leading a Christmas service. They came to visit you or the church? They came to visit the church because they were, him and his wife were both from Jonesboro. Her dad was a deacon at the church. They were just coming to visit family.

They decided to come to the service. They see this big tall guy on stage singing, and they're like, who's that guy? We don't know who that guy. guy is, Jonathan takes me to coffee. He's like, what's your story? He's like, you don't sing like that without a story. I tell him my story. He says, well, come over, won't you come to Nashville and write some music? And so a few months later, I started coming over and stay in the weekend with him, and we would write songs. And out of that, out of that six-month time period, we wrote Chainbreaker and Fear's a

liar and all these songs that became my first album. And while all that was going on, I was still working at the church and the record label here in town, Sony Provident, heard the demo for Chainbreaker and called me and offered me a record deal off of that demo. What do you mean they heard it? Like, how did they get it? Who played it for them? So I was coming over all the time and they were seeing me in the offices. The studios were there that we were riding in and eventually somebody was like, who's the, who's the tall guy that's coming over here all the time that's riding with? And he's like, oh, this guy named Zach that I'm riding with. He's a worship leader in Arkansas, saw, you know, just been writing some music.

And the ANR guy at the label was like, well, let me hear some of the songs. So he sends them some songs. And they flip out over them and play them for a whole staff meeting. And when the president of the label heard it, they called me on a Wednesday. I was getting ready to lead a college worship service at church and called me and said, hey, we want to offer your record deal. I was 38 years old, been playing music for 20 years in my life, trying to kick the door in to get a record deal

and then I finally had stopped trying to get it and I was just doing what I felt like I was supposed to be doing and then it falls in my lap and I'm still working part-time at the church still hearing people talk about how great these songs are and I'm kind of in the back of my mind going I don't know if I can go out and do this again like I don't know if I want to do this

I just want to be a songwriter and so I have a meeting and they're like man nobody's going to sing these songs the way that you sing them so you should probably think about this. I don't want to lose my train of thought, but were you thinking you couldn't do it because, or you shouldn't do it because of your past experience of doing it? Yeah, I was just thinking I didn't know if I wanted to go back

and get on the road and tour. Yeah, and I just didn't know, I didn't know if I, yeah. And so, yeah, after talking about it for a while and meeting with different people in Nashville, and I signed my record deal, and I was still working at the church, living in Arkansas, and one of my first big tours was Chris Tomlin's Worship Night in America, and he put me out singing Chainbreaker every night.

night and we were I mean it was awesome and I was like I might be able to do this and make a living and I remember sitting in Florida at a radio programmers conference with my booking agent and I was still living in Arkansas I was on that tour and I said man I just want to be able to make enough money to live can you guys figure that out help me do that if we can do that I'm happy and wasn't long after that church I was working at let me be able to be able to be able to be play a concert. They sent me away with a big chunk of money to help me get insurance for a year and pay my rent. And I left out and went on tour. And it's been every since.
