Coming up this seasonal Math and Magic, CEO of Liquid Death, Mike Cesario.

People think that creative ideas are like these light bulb moments that happen when you're in the shower. It's really like a stone sculpture. You're constantly just chipping away and refining. Take to Interactive CEO, Strauss Selnick, and our own chief business officer, Lisa Coffey. Listen to Math and Magic on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.

Hey, I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist and hosts of the podcast, a slight change of plans, a show about who we are and who we become when life makes other plans. I wish that I hadn't resisted for so long. the need to change. We have to be willing to live with a kind of uncertainty that none of us likes.

You can have opinions. You can have like a strong stance. And then there's your body having its own program. Listen to a slight change of plans 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 communities thriving. If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they failed. Listen to Eating While Broke from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. It's time for the Bobby Bones. Host show. Here's your host. Bobby. Bones. Thank you. Oh, yeah. Amy had to step out. So we'll see how long we go until she comes back, or not at all.

Cookie Monster has a real name. It's not Cookie Monster. Is it a name? No. Um, let's see. The only time it was addressed was a mid-1960s snack commercial. Okay. So we don't know Cookie Monster by his real name. I thought his name was Cookie Monster. In the commercial, which never made it to air, he was unofficially referred to as a wheel stealer because he loved steering wheel-shaped crackers, like circle crackers, I guess, wheel stealer.

Like cookies? Well, crackers at the time. But is a cracker a cookie to them in the 60s? And then he did Frito Lays, and he was known as Arnold the Munching Monster. Arnold? Cookie Monster has, in fact, repeatedly indicated his name isn't Cookie Monster at all, but rather Sid or Sydney. So,

Sid, Sydney or Arnold. What does it say with Cookie Monster? News National now. Cookie Monster. Or as Scuba Steve does, I want to do the truck bed on the wrong side this morning. Goodwill had this

Lego piece and had it for 1495 and it sold and then somebody bought it and then they sold it for $18,000. What do you mean? Is I got just one Lego? A Goodwill in Pennsylvania just sold a rare 14-carric gold

Lego piece. Whoa. And then it ended up going for $18,000. Didn't know it was like a super expensive Lego piece. I wonder if it's gold. I mean, don't you look at it me like, man, that looks like gold. It looks like a Darth Vader helmet. But still, I wouldn't think a Lego piece was gold.

I don't know. Yeah, that's weird. And Goodwill's getting so much stuff. So much. And most things that are even gold, I'm not even like, that's not real gold. Do we need to go to Goodwill and just check pockets? that's the idea in all of the coats in all of the jackets

I think they probably do that 98% of the time because you never find the money on the shelf it's usually in the donation bin when they're going through it we've found $8,000 and we tracked down the owner Lauren Watkins is on the Bobbycast

this week she's a great new artist she's also one of the new artists we're featuring at our million dollar show coming up April 3rd which is Eddie and I the raging idiot Sam Hunt John Party Megan Maroney Nate Smith Ian Munnwick Ben Rector

Matt Carney, Edwin McCain, obviously Lauren Watkins. And we talked about performing in Nashville. And it's not really a favorite of anybody that lives in Nashville because it's always such a mess. But she talked about why she doesn't enjoy performing in Nashville despite being born and raised here. Nashville is tough to play. A lot of people just try to be too cool. It's hard. And I also think even as simple as yelling out during a show, yelling and screaming, cheering,

people don't want to do, they're scared, people are looking at them. A lot of my songwriter friends and I love to protest. against that and we'll go to our friends shows in town and just be the biggest fans because that's what you want I mean you work so hard you're on the road and then you get so excited to come home and play a show for your people and then it's like that and it's sort of sad really cool to talk to really refreshing and yet Nashville shows are tough because it still also a lot of the industry comes just to see how good you are not even to enjoy the show it's like let's just see they rarely play here so let's just see if it really lives up to the hype it's very much that vibe

She talked about going to Ole Miss. She graduated in 2021 with a degree in Integrated Marketing Communications. And so she talked about how going to an SEC school influenced her. It's just so college. And on that EP specifically, I was so fresh out of college. I think that that shows in a cool way. A big part of me is the fact that I did the whole SEC school experience. That so many my life experiences came from that.

Whether I like it or not, that is a huge part of me and my songwriting. Oh, did not like it? Not that I wouldn't like it, but just that that's such a small part of life. Like that's such a short period of time. My like huge heartbreak or just life memories came from that. You guys should check her out. She goes hard. She goes hard.

Like in her singing? No, just in general in life. Like she just goes. Oh. She's definitely one of those. Not the same. Mike, what do they call her? She has barstle charm, meaning like she's gritty.

Oh. But she's also like, I don't know. I like her a lot. but she definitely goes hard. I guess I'll meet her at the million dollar show. You'll probably meet her before that at rehearsal. Oh, yeah, I didn't. I forgot about that.

There's hand-washing lie detectors. Uh-oh. It's mostly for food service places. Good. I like that. There's a new product called the hand scanner, which is being described as a hand-washing lie detector. It's popping up in fast food places

as a way to cut back on the spread of food-borne illnesses and restaurants. Did you guys ever see the TikTok of the guy that was standing in the lettuce who worked there? And he put both feet in the lettuce? No. Excuse me?

It's not hand. It just made me think about that. But his feet. He was like, hey, this is what you let us is like when you come to this place. That's terrible.

I know. I don't want to see that. Well, no, that's the point. That's what he was doing. He was like, look, check it out. He was being a jerk. Yeah. But yeah, the CDC,

food workers, according to them, only wash their hands 33% of the time. Meaning germs can spread from workers' hands to food, outbreaks of illnesses. So it's called the hand scanner. It looks like a mounted hand dryer.

A worker places their hands under it after washing their hands, palms up, then palms down. within two seconds, it can identify any residue that is on your hands. It has light fluorescent spectra... I don't know. Like a LED stuff.

But I feel like anybody... We should have this at my house. Yeah, everywhere. Work. Because lunchbox doesn't even use soap. Oh, you should just wait. What he told me. He asked if we could give our artist guests more water.

Why do you think that is? Give them more water. He's like, they need more water. Oh, water breaks? Like they need to... We need to hand them water in the middle of interviews. because he wants to keep the water bottles and sell them? No.

You're in, ish the right area because there's always something up. No. I didn't know until I heard the end of the story. Go ahead. Because not enough artists are going to the bathroom after they come in our studio so I can't wash my hands with them.

Like we did it. He needs him to pee more so we can go wash his hands with them. He's like, hey man, you've been talking a lot. That was a great answer. Now have a sip of water. We'll take a minute. Chub, let them drink some water. So then when they get up out of the,

of the studio, they go to the bathroom, and I'm there waiting because I go set myself up in the bathroom, and they never come. What do you want out of that? Like, what do you like out of? To wash my hands with him. Why? It's a good story. He likes to just have a list of famous people he's washed his hands with so he can tell people. It's always been two. Which are? Keith Urban and that guy that, I don't know, he's from the 90s band that you like. Adam Duritz. Yeah, it's pretty cool. That's so weird. Yeah, he waits in the bathroom for them when the show's over. How about like, hey, I met Adam Duritz. Not like, hey, I washed hands with Adam Duritz.

No, no, because we've all met Adam Durts. Not all of us have washed our hands with them. It's a great point. That's a great point. I don't want to. That's also a great point he made. You know, how many people can say they washed their hands on the dirt? Not a lot. Or that they waited in a bathroom for him.

A Florida woman threw a bunch of punches at a student during a fight at a bus stop. Oh, man, that's bad. The Florida parents arrested after egging on a kid to fight another kid at a bus stop. And then she joined in. No what? It reminded me of you. Yeah, well, that's what I'm worried about it. Like, it was Marcus.

Do you know this story, by the way? Yeah, so they were having a problem, so the mom encouraged her daughter to fight at the bus stop. And I think the daughter started losing. So then mom jumps in and they got it all on video. Of course, because, you know, there's other kids there filming it. Man. Oh, and then I saw a real bad one.

Oh, man. Go ahead. I think it was in Missouri. There was these girls. They were beating up this one girl, and they started slamming her head. Oh, I saw that. Oh, my God. I don't even like watching that stuff.

No, no, I don't either. But I like watching fights. But when I was watching that one, it took a turn. It was bad. Like, did she die? Because that looked terrible. She started getting her head and slamming it. I don't like even talking about that. Well, it happened, man.

Well, there's a lot of stuff that happens we don't talk about, though, man. Just telling you what happened. Man. I kind of, yeah, she's still in a critical condition, according to the story. It's not good. Not good. It was so terrible. I was going to play you guys

A clip, I have to find him on Instagram A clip of a coach Who didn't have enough players Like a youth game So the coach got it and played Oh, hilarious That's pretty funny And dominated

Hold on, I'm gonna find it I've thought about throwing my older son Into games You know, like when I was coaching And we didn't have enough players Okay But he was like 14, 15 of the time I mean that's obviously not what you want to do

And obviously illegal But probably a little more acceptable than what this coach did. However, these kids are these adult men at times that will act like high school kids and go and like enroll in school. I mean, it would be awesome to just dominate. Let's, don't get us wrong. But I would say we'd go back to high.

I mean, I don't think we'd dominate. These are freak athletes. Not all of them, though. I think if I were to go and play, I don't know, I probably wouldn't. No. High school? It depends what level. Junior high.

What do you mean? If I could play junior high baseball, I think I'd be a star right now. Middle school? Yes, dude. Yeah. You'd be a star. No, Eddie, I'm saying like if you went back right now to play high school football. I think I'll get crushed.

You would get crushed. I think I would tear something immediately because they're as big as I am. I think junior high high, though, I could still make a difference. Like high school basketball, Eddie, you wouldn't even make the team. Oh, yeah, no chance. A high school basketball? Yeah. Like a regular high school?

Yeah. You wouldn't make the team. You wouldn't make the team? No way. No chance. You want to try it? Let me go do a walk-on. I can't believe you think you'd make the team at 44 years old. Just semi-athletic anyway.

At high school, I'm probably taller than most of the kids. Not for a high school team. I don't think so. Really? You're not six-foot? But again, there's probably a lot of five, nine, five-ten guys who are far more athletic and probably have practice and can shoot. Well, they definitely can play longer than me. I'll need like five-minute breaks every five minutes.

I'm going to sit down for a little bit. So you be the glue guy? Take me out, coach. I need a break. You be the guy that brings good vibes? Yeah. Pump them up. Man, I'm trying to find this stupid video.

I will find it in a minute, but it's wild to me that you think you could play high school basketball right now. Because I play my, you know, my, I guess, nephews, I guess. You and I tried to play my wife and I'm awed, and you couldn't play two on two. Yeah, they're R-H. But that doesn't matter. They're R-H. I'm talking about playing kids, man, playing 16, 17-year-olds. Okay, I have the video.

You and I would dominate. No, we wouldn't. We literally wouldn't. Okay, so here you go. Archie Bradley, pitching the major leagues for like 10 years. I'm going to play the video. Here you go. Okay.

There's no way. This girl is 22 years old. 22 playing in a 13-and-under JV basketball game. Like, I've read through all the comments on this video. if you haven't read the comments, you have got to go, read the comments. This girl is an assistant coach. One of her players is out of town. She decides to suit up and play in the game.

Watch her smack this. But this girl is 22 smack and it gets 13-year-old. But what was her stat line? Someone please find her stat line. Let me know. Let me know what you guys got. The video is wild because she's dominating. I think we talked about this a while back.

I remember talking about this. It happens more, and I don't know if we talked about this one specifically, but it happens more than you think it would because what normal adults can hop in a kid game. That's crazy. Yeah, so there's that. A captain and a co-pilot of an A-320 fell asleep for 28 minutes during a flight. I don't know what an A-3-20 is, but I'm assuming that's a big plane. I don't know.

But they both fell asleep. The captain, it's an A-3-20 airbus, aircraft, took a nap. And the co-pilot was like, yeah, go ahead. Yeah, it's a big plan. I mean, it is. Oh, it's a big one. Yeah, it's a big one. Wait, so the co-pilot was like, yeah, good.

I got it. Yep. I got the plane. The captain took a nap after getting permission from his co-pilot while the plane was at a cruising altitude at 36,000 feet. About 45 minutes later, the captain woke up and offered to let the co-pilot rest, but they declined. The captain fell back asleep. The first officer spent roughly the next 20 minutes communicating with air traffic controllers before they also inadvertently fell asleep. They both fell asleep.

I don't think wanting to take a nap as a pilot is ever acceptable. Well, I think it probably is if there's a communication of, hey, go, because as long as one stays up. You just read that one of them said, I got you, man. No, but I think, I don't know that this is true at night. But I'm saying, I think one of them may check in with the other. If it's a long flight, I'd be like, sure, you can take a nap. No, no, no, bro. Hey, you knew we were doing this flight.

Like, stay up. I don't know. I don't know either way. It's like a road trip, man. You volunteer to drive. Right. You ain't sleeping. But you don't need two drivers on a road trip.

Yeah, but you need someone to talk to you. I also don't know if what I'm fighting for is right. I'm just saying they talk about it like it's not a big deal. Like it's so normal that maybe. it can't be allowed. But here, I got an idea. Here we go. Listen to this. The aviation authority said sleep opportunities

should be limited no more than six hours during a flight. Six hours. I wonder if that's like a 12 hour I don't know. Like a longer flight like a 12, 13, 14, 15 hour flight. Okay, that makes sense. No, no, you just said sleep. You said you can't sleep on a flight.

Well, hold on. If you're flying to China, like yeah, that's going to be a... Well, no, this is not a 30 minute flight they're on. Okay, but even if it's a four hours. flight. You ain't napping. They are. 30 minutes. Oh, man. What's up? The other kind of pilot rest

is in-seat cockpit naps. Oh. Wait. Which is now forbidden. Yeah, yeah. It's got to be forbidden, dude. All right. So no. So what's the six hour one then? First class. Boy, he's like, you know they turn their microphone off then when they're having that conversation. Yeah. Hey, man. Chuck, you mind if I go to sleep? Or he goes, he gives him the throat cut.

Like, hey, cut your mic. Catch your mic. Yeah. Don, I'm sleepy. Because if I were tower control or whatever that is and heard them talking about that, like, uh-uh. Well, no, no, no. Maybe, though, hold on. Check this out. There's a little twist on this.

Pilots have designated rest periods where they can take short naps in special sleeping quarters. So you can't do it in the chair, but you can get out of your chair leave and take a nap. But that means somebody has to fill in that chair. And then someone, there's not another fill-in chair. There has to be. And someone's got to go wake. Like, if you say you're going to go sleep for 30 minutes, 45 minutes later, if you're not back, who goes and gets you?

You can sleep. the rest periods are carefully planned to ensure there's always at least one fully awake pilot in the cockpit. See, this is crazy. So you can sleep if... How does the Aviation Commission not have someone in there being like, we can't do this, guys? There has to be two people. They probably can't get enough good pilots. I mean, if there were just 10 million great pilots.

But what I'm saying is we don't even need another pilot in there. Just a body to stay awake to be like, sir, that's beeping. You need to wake up. Well, to keep the one awake that's declare they're going to stay awake. Yes. Because in this case that you read, they both fell asleep. Yes. why it's a story. I'm saying the first person that was like, hey, I'm going to take a nap for half

an hour. I was like, maybe they're allowed to take naps because they talk about it like it's a normal thing. Didn't know. But it does seem like you can say that and you can't go sleep for pilots have rest periods. They can take it as long as you don't do it in the actual seat. That's crazy. Because if you're in the seat, you can do like me and just start kicking. You hit the eject button. Yeah, exactly. Oh, God. Let's do a midroll here. You can have opinions. You can have like a strong stance. and then there's your body having its own program. I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist and hosts of the podcast, a slight change of plans,

a show about who we are and who we become when life makes other plans. We share stories and scientific insights to help us all better navigate these periods of turbulence and transformation. There is one finding that is consistent, and that is that our resilience rests on our relationship. I wish that I hadn't resisted for so long the need to change. We have to be willing to live with a kind of uncertainty that none of us likes. Listen to a slight change of plans on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I feel like it was a little bit unbelievable until I really start making money. 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 shared their journeys from starting out to leveling up. If I'm outside with my parents and they're seeing all these people come up to me for pictures, it's like, what? Today now, obviously, it's like 100%. They believe everything. But at first, it was just like, you got to go get a real job. There's an economic component to community striving. If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they face. And what I mean by Phil is they don't have money to pay for food. They cannot feed their kids.

They do not have homes. Communities don't work unless there's money flowing through them. Listen to Eating While Broke from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. When you listen to podcasts about AI and tech and the future of humanity, the hosts always act like they know what they're talking about and they are experts at everything. Here, the Nick Dick and Poll Show, we're not afraid to make mistakes. What Coogler did that I think was so unique. He's the writer-director. Who do you think he is?

I don't know. You mean the president? You think Canada has a president. You think China has a president. Los Wau-Rouzette. God, I love that thing. I use it all the time. I wrap it in a blanket and sing to it at night.

It's like the old Polish saying, not my monkeys, not my circus. It was a good one. I like that. It is an actual Polish saying. It is an actual. 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, I thought it was. I got that wrong. Listen to the Nick, Dick, and Poll show on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. A couple struggling with infertility used social media to find a woman to be their surrogates and paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for the strangers to carry their kids. The story is couple find surrogate parents on Facebook Marketplace. Jesse Jaskolsky. and her husband went to Facebook and they were like hey did anybody want to do this eventually the couple connected with and met two women through groups and paid a combined $300,000 to them wow they welcomed

a daughter in 2020 and another in 2020 so two instances hey good for them she had a miscarriage and couldn't carry the baby it looks like so good for everybody because anybody on Facebook marketplace I'm ready I'd be ready for them still the baby yeah yeah go straight to the what is the dark the dark Yeah, take the money and the baby and run. But that's from the Daily Mail. Ray, you guys still talking about that? Yeah, I mean, later. The beauty of surrogacy and freezing your eggs, we can do it over 60.

You want to have a baby when you're 60? Yeah, I mean, I just want to see him for 20 years. I'm not trying to... I felt that. See him through adulthood and housing and trying to get them through college. Like grandchildren, you don't want that? Somebody else can work on that. On his 18th birthday, Ray wants tap out.

Okay. All right, man. You know the story about the guy who supposedly invented the car that could run on water or run on hydrogen. Yes. And all of a sudden he ends up dead. Yes. And they're like, natural causes.

And I'm like, I don't know about that. And again, I know nothing. Why are you talking like that? Because that meets it's a conspiracy. It's my conspiracy voice. So they're like, you'd have out of natural causes. And he found a way that you could. And listen, the oil industry is a billion, billion, if they want to whack somebody,

they can. A lot of money. Like, no doubt about it. So this story feels a bit similar to the story that. I made up in my head about the water fuel cell car. By the way, Stanley Myers water fuel cell, which he claims, was able to split the water mist into hydrogen and oxygen gas, which would then be combusted back into water vapor in a conventional internal combustion engine to produce net energy, which would move a car. Lots of stuff there. Sounds amazing. But we have combustion engines,

obviously, but we use different. We use oil. Yes. Fossil fuels. Absolutely. Listen to this. A former Boeing employee who raised concerns about production standards that the company has been found dead. John Barnett worked for Boeing for 32 years, giving evidence recently as part of a whistleblower lawsuit against the company. The coroner in Charleston County, South Carolina, said he died Saturday from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Boeing released a statement saying, we are saddened by Mr. Barnett's passing, and our thoughts are with his family and friends. The planemaker continues to be under investigation after a door plug blew off a plane and mid-flank. from Live 5 News. Now, I know nothing about this story.

I'm not saying I know anything, but it is a terrible coincidence. Sure. But there's also the side of, I mean, he could have ended it because he felt like so guilty about the whole thing. Guilty about being a whistleblower?

No, no, no. The doors are blowing off for airplanes? Whistleblower and nothing changing and it's like, I just can't do it anymore. But not guilt. He didn't do anything wrong. He's the one that was trying to... Right.

He did. I'm not saying he did it wrong. Why would he feel guilty? I don't understand that. Like, you know, say like, you know something, right? You know something and you've been trying to tell everyone and they're like, no, just shut up, stop talking. And you just feel like, I need to do something. I don't know what else to do.

But he did tell something. He was in the lawsuit. Okay. He's one of the whistleblowers. Yeah. In the lawsuit. I don't know. I mean, it does sound.

I watch too many shows where they do those. And I don't know that they didn't do that. I'm just going to say they didn't do this. Boeing did not do this. Boeing did not do this. Boeing is all good, all clear. It just feels the timing is bad. But he also could have been like depressed because he's in,

what's that beat? Do you guys hear something beating? I know. What is that? It's over here somewhere. No, it's out there. Oh, it's probably a thousand more says about to perform. Oh, okay, they're good.

No need to tell him. They're probably just warming up or something. Oh, yeah, it's the warming up, yeah. Got it. It's really infected my brain there. I thought we had soundproof rooms. No, no, no, you're wrong. Because there's a car.

About once every three days. The horn? That somebody like tries to break into or just somebody with a battle arm during the show. I feel bad for this guy that he had to take his own life. That sucks by itself.

The timing is bad. Yeah. But not the greatest look. That's all, I'm not saying nothing. Yeah, I'm not saying anything either. I definitely think Boeing is fine and didn't do, well, they could probably do better work on their doors.

Yeah, let's fix that. I don't think they're involved, but I think it does look a bit. suss because of all the timing and the circumstances. A boy was locked inside a Target store overnight in Columbus, Ohio. That's awesome. An employee found the 12-year-old boy while opening the store. 12-year-old?

Well, where are the parents, man? Police say the boy's parents have filed a missing person's report. Well, 12-year-though, you can still give the resources to get away. Ride your bike. Sure. Yeah. And I feel like a 12-year-old would have a blast in a store overnight. Ooh, by yourself, I don't know. I'd eat everything.

Yeah, dude. Anything you want. It's all there. One bite of melon, one bite of candy bar, one by to... Grab a Coke. from itself, but the question's being probed to how did he go undetected. KKTV, probably because he didn't want to be detected.

Yeah. I don't think this is one of those stories where you're like, the poor kid was locked in Target. He was trying to get, no, no, no. If I'm just assuming, the poor kid probably hit someone, I was like, this is going to be awesome. I'm making a TikTok video.

I'll be sleeping overnight in Target. So there's that story. Okay. Is there anything else? Eddie, I have a... What's up? I have a birthday question for you. Yeah.

Your birthday is next. week. It's coming up. It's next week, into next week, I think. Thursday or Friday next week. So here's the two options. Option one is,

I can just give you the gift that I have for you. And that's it. You get the gift. Happy birthday, buddy. I like that option. Option two is, but I have to keep the integrity of the games. We could play a game or you could win a gift that is so, so, so much cooler,

which I would hate for you to have, because I actually love it. Like, you could actually move up to a way better gift, but in order to do that, you may also move down to a worse gift. Not the original gift? Right. Like, there's a chance you would get even a worse gift. Well, what happened to the gift from Option A?

Where is that gift? It'll probably be where you start in the game. Okay. So I can just get Option A right now. No problem. Not right now, but let's say we played next week. Okay. But I just want you to know it is a real life.

There's no like, hey, buddy, can really have this afterward. Because I don't want you to win the big, but I'd like to give you a chance for the big. Well, but if you don't want to give me the big one, I don't want to take it. No, it's awesome. It's your birthday. You should have a chance. If you want to play the game, because it's also a really funny content for the show.

Sure. And I'm willing to do that for the show. The second question. How easy is this game? Is it a music game? Like, what are we? I haven't really made the terms of the game yet. Like, is it a game that I could possibly win?

I haven't made the game. I talk with Mike. Yeah, maybe you play one-on-on-one. against a high school kid and you beat them. Like that one I could win. So I like the odds on that one. I don't think one on one. I think like as a like three of us three could go in and dominate high school kids.

Maybe not you lunch. I'm writing down what the stuff is. I'm going to let Mike take a look at it. These are the gifts? Yeah. My wife's been asking me questions too. Like she's like, do you want a party? I'm like, no, I don't want a party.

We're going to be 45 years old, man. Yeah, you want party. It just had to be the same. What do you mean? I really haven't had a party in forever. Like, not even a birthday gathering. I kind of just like ordering pizza and just, I don't know, go and watch March Madness for a little bit.

Well, that could be considered a party. Okay. Okay, Mike. Can we come over here? That's a long letter, dude. What'd you write? There's a lot of options. So this would be the gift that we start off one, right?

And so if he were to, go down a level, boom. If you were to go to lose another level, boom. Now, if you were to go from this and win a level, boom. And if he went to another level, boom. And if he wins another level, boom. What the crap. How about, hey, happy birthday, here, all your gifts.

Is that an option? I just said that's not an option. Like, you sure? He said, Mike, will you sit over there on that? Oh, my goodness. You know what I mean? Well, we can't do that. I literally can't do that.

You can't. You can do it. I'm not going to because I need it to be real. Mike. I love it. I think it's worth it for him to do it. But you think it's worth it for him to do it? Oh, yeah.

But what if he gets the absolute worst gift, though? It's worth it, dude. It is? It is worth it. It's worth it for the shot of the really hard gift. The worst gift sucks. The risk is worth the reward. Okay.

We don't even know the game yet, though. It doesn't matter. I like what Mike's saying, though. Because, like, really, I mean, I even told my family I don't want birthday gifts. So, I'm already winning. No, no, I hear you. You don't want what's traditionally considered a birthday gift and what you're doing. Yeah, Bobby doesn't do traditional.

Okay, but the last one, what is it? A bag of poop? Like, how bad could it be? It's not so much of how bad it is. It's not going to hurt you, but it just when you... It's a poop back. The chance of winning the other one. Yeah, that's what it is. It's not something that bad. Yeah, dude. So just think about that. I like it, okay. But legit, right?

Yeah, it would be fun too. We did have to figure out the game, and I'd want to give you a chance. It would be fun for who? me or you guys? Everybody involved. But if you won, it'd be freaking awesome for you. Huh. All right. Either way, it's entertaining for everybody. Yes. But if you win, it's like the ultimate for you. What is this? Okay, how much time do I have to decide? We don't even know the game, so I'm not even asking you. I'm just wanted to know if you'd be, if you'd be up for doing that because there's a chance. And I just want to say, with full honesty, that we don't, that you get

the worst gift. Therefore, you get nothing. And I don't want to be the friend that got you nothing. because I did get you something. But you can just say, I'll tap and take the original gift. No. We don't have to play a game. No. You want me to tell you right now? You don't know the game, though.

It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter what the game is. It does because I can make the game impossible to win. Okay, what answer do you want now? Am I interested? Yes. Will you think about it? I am very interested.

Okay. And I would definitely consider it. Should I show lunchbox? No. He won't tell Eddie. Yeah, I won't. No, no, but he'll tell someone and it'll give back to me. I'll never tell anybody.

That's not true. Mike. I feel like he won't tell anybody. I feel like he won't know. Let's go. Not even your wife. I don't care. I don't care.

Yeah, come on back. Don't tell your mom because we talk every day. Okay, so. This is where it starts, right? Oh, yeah. Okay, so if you were to lose, it would go here. Okay. If you were to lose again, it would go here.

Can you read my writing? Now, if you were to win, it would go here. Yeah. If you were to win again, it would go here. Yeah. Yeah. If you were to win again, it would go here. Oh.

Uh-huh. Yeah. Yeah? Let's let him walk over to his microphone. Yeah. Yeah. Oh. I don't know which one to believe.

He hasn't said anything yet. A lot of O's and uh-huh. He said, you know. He said, you understand. I said, yeah. What do you think? Am I right? He was terrible because I wrote it really quickly.

Maybe he didn't even understand what it was saying. No, I know exactly what it said. I believe he knows what it said. Yeah. I think you got to go for it, Eddie. See, I don't believe in it. Mike, I trust. But they're both saying the same thing.

I get it. I get it. Like, if you don't go for it, you don't kick yourself. But what if he loses at all and he gets the worst? It's still cool. It's not. The worst is still cool. It's not. It's a gift. Yeah, he still gets a gift. It is still an object that he receives on his birthday. It's still a present. All right, so we'll get back to that. Okay. But I am interested. Okay. And I'm glad you're interested. The problem is, like, obviously. I just don't know. We have a relationship off the air, and I want to get you a nice gift. I mean, we have a relationship on the air.

No, I know, but I'm saying it's real. Like, even if we weren't doing this show, I would still get you a nice gift. But I don't want you to play down and get no gift. But, dude, I don't care. You would care. No, no, I get out of that. I mean, you guys are building this up. And now I really want that.

But, like, even in real life, like, if you didn't give me a gift, I wouldn't be like, wow, well, he didn't give me a gift. That's weird. No, I know. But that's not the point. Okay. But the point is you're going to want me to give you the gift anyway at the end once we reveal the stuff, and I'm not going to. Even off the air?

No, right. That's my point. As my real friend. That's wink, wink. No, see, that's what I'm worried about. That's why we can't do that. That's funny. Okay.

Just a couple more things. Ray, how long have we been going here? Let's see. It says 36, but I think it ran for seven minutes, so I'd say 29 minutes. Why did it run for seven minutes? She was rolling. You know what? Ray, Ray's that producer.

that like always rolls just in case he catches gold. I don't know. You know how you had like some artists, they were like, man, some of the best producers. I hear you, but I don't know that that's true because then it just takes a while to save and I don't think Ray wants to be saving extra large files most of the time.

Not that he wouldn't like to have stuff, but I'm saying I don't think he's just running all the time because our computers suck anyway. Yeah. It would just crash. But I feel like if we all died, like Ray would have some like good stuff in there that he's collected throughout the years.

Well, that's just bits we've all done throughout the years. No, no, no, like stuff that never made the air because you know like Elvis you know how like they have like these recordings of Elvis I feel like we'd play those if we had them and right be like this is my prep good point um okay let me see if there's anything else Mike was there anything that I had earmark for just post show we use it all okay all right well then let's just call it it's cold in here it's been cold dude I know but I'm just my hands are freezing
