Transmitting. Welcome to Wednesday show. Morning studio. Morning. Amy, you ever heard of a spicy rosé? No, but it sounds kind of tasty. I like a spicy margarita. What's rosé, though, specifically?

I know it's an alcoholic beverage, but it's like a wine or a champagne. It's like a bubbly. More of like, it's like a bubbly wine. I don't know if it's in the champagne category, and it's like a rose color. Rose color. So if you want a spicy rosé, people, are ordering a rosé and then asking for a jalapeno to be put in it. Oh. Oh. And then you put a couple ice cubes in it as well. That might be good. You know, and maybe it doesn't sound good, but sometimes

things that don't sound good at all are actually great. For example, there's something called a piccadilly, which I remember they sold them near my house when I was in Texas and they were like, get a piccadilly and have a pickle and a snow cone. And I was like, that's disgusting. And then Eddie's like, no, it's pretty good. And I was like, a pickle snow cone. He's like, well, he's like, well, you get a flavor and then there's pickle in it as well. I was like, you're out of your mind. And then, then, then, that like chili powder too, right? They put it on top.

And so I stopped by one day and I got a strawberry piccadilly. And I was like, all right, let me just take a bite and vomit. Let's get this over with. I took a bite. I was in love. I stopped by like every day for 13 or 14 days. I had one every day. Put on like four pounds and I stopped eating the piccadilly's.

But it was awesome. So you just never know. All right. So Amy's here and she's got our question of the day. Amy, what do we have here? Well, the question of the day is, is it okay to share a lufa with your significant other? That's interesting. If you were to use a lufa, would you share it?

If you have them hanging in the shower and it's convenient, are you down with using it if need be? I'm not down with sharing a toothbrush. I don't like that. So I don't think it's toothbrush powerful, like super end. I don't think it's not there. Okay. Wow, you're considering it. Yeah, would I share a wash cloth?

Now there we go. Or as we call them a wash rag. Right. So, yeah, lufel wash rag, whatever. Yeah. You would? Yeah. Now, my wife has like a lufa glove that hangs on the showerhead, and I don't use it.

So I don't, but I don't think that I would hold from it if I wanted to, because it gets cleaned. I'm trying to picture her walking in and you're taking a shower with her glove on and being like, scratch my, like rubbing my back with it. Yeah, I just have no problem with it. But again, it gets cleaned every time you shower, doesn't it? You would think, but then when I, this is. is a topic that came up with some friends and I, and I was shocked that some of my friends were okay with it, because I would not be.

You were shocked that? Like, I'm okay with it. You're shocked with that? I'm a little shocked you're okay with that. I haven't done it, but I just, I think I would. Like, no, I don't like the idea of it. So then I just googled, it got me curious how often you should switch out a lufa, and the internet said three to four weeks. Is that a lot? I have had the same lufa for a couple months now. I don't call you Lunchbox Jr. then. I know. So now I'm, like, I just, that's a PSA for people out there if you have a lufa. So if you had a lufa and I wanted to use it. No, no, hold on a second. Okay. So, okay, let's say I had a lufa and you wanted to use it. If I went and put it in

the washing machine and washed it, then would use it. Yeah. So if I put it in hot water and soap, you would use it. So what's the difference in hot water and soap in the shower? Boom, he let it right to it. That was great. That was great. Great question. But there has to be a reason that bacteria or something is growing on it because why would they want you to change it out every four weeks? Or maybe that study was put out by the lufa foundation. That's right. That's a Exactly. And they want to sell more loufins. I'm just saying if you're okay with it being washed,

you should be okay with it being hot watered and soaked in the shower. Okay. Well, you're going to have to convince me that you wrung it out and soaked it and got it all kinds of teen. Exactly. Right. I mean. I'm okay with it. Lunchbox.

Oh, I'd use it no matter. I mean, use the same bar of soap. I wouldn't use the luf. It's the same thing. No, if I use the bar of soap, I like rinse it under water for a full minute before I ever let it anything from it touch my body. Eddie? We've always used the same washcloth. So to me, same thing.

What? Yeah, share away. I mean, come on, we're married. We do everything together. You can't have like we're gross when you change your out every three years. I just learned that, though. I had no idea. Morgan?

I mean, I don't have a problem with it, but I also don't have a significant other. But if you did. If you did, I wouldn't have a problem with it. It gets cleaned. Every shower. So you're going to scrub under your arms and then hang it back up on the thing, and then I'm going to scrub my body with it. I'm not going to scrub and just go.

Scrub, leave. I'm going to clean it, rinse it. It has soap on it. It's literally getting washed as it's washing you. Wow, y'all are just like my other friends. It gets washed as it washes you. That's a good slogan. All right.

There's a good question of the day. You're in the minority here for sure. Wow, wow. All right, let's open up the mailbag. You send an email and we read it on the air. It's something we call Bobby's mailbag. Yeah. Hello.

Oh, Mr. Bones. I need advice on how to ask my in-laws to stop buying my two-and-a-half-year-old daughter things. They watch her once a week. They always buy her new clothes, toys, and other things. They don't tell me they bother these things. She just comes home with them. That makes me feel like I cannot provide for my own child,

especially when I send her with three outfits, and then she still comes home with new clothes. My husband doesn't want any confrontation. Grandparents are supposed to spoil children, but if it's continuously making me feel bad, I feel like I have to say something. I don't want my daughter to expect gifts from her grandparents every time she sees them. Advice, please. Signed. Minimalist mom.

Amy? I wish I could ask her, why does it make you feel like a bad parent? Well, she said it here. She said because... Because she can't provide. Yes. But I don't know that that equals that. That's a story she's telling herself. The grandparents probably just genuinely want to buy the kids stuff. But what I would have to do, if this bothered me, is doesn't have to be confrontational, but you can still say something.

and then hopefully they will respect you. Yeah. She says, that makes me feel like I cannot provide for my own child. This, yeah, Minimal's mom, this is a you thing. Yeah. Her feelings are allowed, but I would tap into, maybe this is a you thing that you could work through and eventually not feel that way,

because honestly, that sounds pretty awesome to me. Eddie, I'm going to offer a different angle here because I went through this and I could provide. But the fact that my parents spoiled our first child so, so much that now that my parents live in Texas and we're in Tennessee, my kid still lives life. Like, why can't I just get that? Like, you know, me mom, Pompo always got me this.

Like, I could, it really damaged my kid to where we said, hey, that's not real life. I know they love you and they want to spoil you. And I talk to my parents over and over about it. But they're like, hey, we didn't get to do this with you guys. So we want to spoil our grandchildren. Let us do that. I'm like, no, you would never allow that to, you would never allow. their parents do that to us when we were kids. And when I said that, they're like, yeah, you're right.

Like, we didn't really allow our parents to do that with you guys. And it's like, yeah, so don't do that to us because it makes it real hard to parent. So as grandparents, if they're listening, I know you want to spoil your kids, but that makes it real hard to raise your kids and make them realize that, hey, you just don't get whatever you want just because you have loving grandparents. Is there some spoiling that can be done? A little bit, but, dude, my parents would get, take them to the store and say, get whatever you want. And my kid would be, like load up the basket. And I'd be like, you can't do that.

You're teaching them the wrong message here. Your parents never did that with you? No, my parents never let my grandparents do that to me. But your parents also didn't do that with you. No. So then why don't you tell your parents, hey, why don't you do that to me now? That's what I would say. You find them all the crap.

Spoil me today. Spread the spoil, baby? Dang, I didn't think about that. Yeah, it's like, you can spoil, but you got to cut me in on this. But once I had that conversation with my parents, they're just like, all right, you know what, you're the parent. Well, you're right. If you don't want that for your child, you're in control.

Do you allow them to spoil, because you have four kids, not spoil them at all? Because they don't get to see them that often. So when they do? Well, it's different now with four kids because they buy one, they've got to buy the other three. So they're more careful about how they spoil. So your advice is. Yeah, she's right. Like, just have the conversation with the in-laws and say, hey, look, we really want to send a certain message to our kid.

And it's not spoiling them. So please stop spoiling them. But that's not her concern. Her concern in the email isn't. about being spoiled. It's about her. I don't want my daughter to expect gifts from her grandparents every time she sees them. That's spoiling. That's spoiling. Yeah, sorry. I didn't hear it that way.

So this is what I would do. As someone with no kids, let me weigh in here. I think as grandparents, though, and I know me even as an uncle or, like, I've been told before I don't spend that much money on that. Do a little less. I think you could

have the conversation of I know what you guys want to do. You want to buy himself. That's cool. You can buy them a thing. Get them one thing. Yeah, one thing. Because they want to do something because they don't get to see them that often. So I think a little bit of spoiling is okay. This goes down to her being super self-conscious that they think she's poor and she can't do it herself.

And they want to buy everything and you're going to have kids like Eddie gets a compliment except for that one story. Except that one. Yeah, except for that one. I think some spoiling's fine but you just got to put a limit on it.

Sounds like a boundary issue as well. So there you go. Well, we just fixed it. To everybody in America, congratulations. We just fixed the problem. That was easy. That was easy.

Our heads combined. We got it. Minimalist mom, thank you. Just have a little talk. Say, thank you for spoiling kids. Just tail it back a little bit. Just peel some of that off. One outfit instead of three.

All right, thank you. That's the mailbag. We've got your email and we've read it on the air. Now it's about to close Bobby's mailback. Yeah. Lunchbox, what's happening with your kids? They're fighting every single night and it's because of you. You're causing fights between my two-year-old, my three-year-old,

because you gave us one copy of your book. And every night at best, bed, they fight over who's gonna get to go sleep with it. Why don't you just go and buy one from the store for 15 bucks? Like you go to the bookstore near your house. That's a good idea. Well, yeah, I could do that? But since I knew the author, I thought, you know, hey, Bobby, could you give me a huge favor

and like send me an extra book? Because every night I don't feel like dealing with, I get the buck, I want the book. How many nights has it happened? Like four or five nights in a row. It's not worth 15 bucks to just put that out. Well, it is. Well, I mean, I thought I would ask you first. I thought, you know, if you heard them, you know, fighting over it, and you would feel my pain

of what I'm dealing with and that you would say, oh, you know what, here's a book. You can have a book. I don't care about that. Yes. But I would just think you could have stopped it four nights ago by going to the store and paying $15, 18,000, whatever it is for the Stanley book, you know? Yeah, I could have, but I really thought, you know, it would be better if I asked you, like, so you knew that the kids really liked your book.

And, I mean, $15 in my pocket is a lot better than $15 in the store's pocket. Okay, but, okay, also, Bobby has mentioned multiple. times that all proceeds from the book are going to a dog rescue group. That's true too. And it helps Bobby's numbers, which helps him, like, not monetarily, but his book sales. True. And you could have bought the book and then brought him the same story of like, it's still a way for Bobby to feel good. Like, hey, my kids were fighting over the book that I had to go buy your book. That's a better story. Yeah, like, and it makes me feel better. Like, I went to bought it. Yeah. Well, if it makes you feel better, then I'll spend $15 on dog treats from my dog.

That makes no sense. We said there was like a dog charity involved, so I'll give my dog some extra bones. Like Bobby Bones, you get it, bones, and I'll give my dog some bones, $15. And then I won't have to hear my kids fighting over and over and over again. Here's what I want you to do with that 15 bucks. You go and you get some lottery tickets. I like that. Why is he rewarding himself now?

You know he deserves. They've been working hard. Yeah, I mean, have you, do you know what two kids fighting over a book sounds like? Oh, do you have audio? Oh, I got it. Oh, I didn't know he brought audio. Okay. It's why you set it up this way.

Two of Lunchbox's kids fighting over my kids' book. Go ahead. Whose turn is it to sleep with this book tonight? I want it. Why do you want it? What about you? I'm going to do it. I'm reading it.

So who gets the book? Me. Me. I got it. Did you want it? Yeah. I, okay, so. I mean, he said that up.

I feel like there was a sight. There was a terrible sight. There was a terrible site back. the day called bum fights. It would go and they would take homeless people and they would pay them to fight each other and they'd record it. Oh, that's awful. It's a terrible thing. Yes, terrible sight.

I feel like this is a version of that. He just said, he made his own kids fight so he could record it and bring it in the studio. Do you want it? And then he takes it away, gives it to the other one? What in the world did I just listen to? What is happening? That's what goes on in my house.

No, this one goes on because you recorded it and set it up. Yeah, that was not organic. Oh, my gosh. No, no. No, I didn't get or, no, no, it happens organically, but I wanted to show you how it happened, so I had to start rolling. Okay, well, you can have another book, all right? Yes, thank you. No need to record your kids fighting and crying.

Oh, man. Get him, get him, what you want to know. How do you feel about that? By the way, if you guys want... What in the world? If you want your kids not to fight, go in order, Stanley the dog in his first day at school. Okay, there's a book at my desk. You can have it right now, lunch, box.

All right, there he is. It's time for the good news. With lunchbox. Stay home, it's something good. All you people that drive a car, you know, gas prices are high, high, high, it's getting hard to drive. Well, Ray Walter of Orange County, California wanted to do something to help. He was like, man, I'm going to start buying gas for one person a week and filling up their tank if they're struggling. So he posted it on Facebook.

Well, first day, he filled out five people's tanks before lunch. $500. He's like, man, this is getting. expensive. People found out they started Venmoing him and he's continuing the tradition and he's filling up gas tanks so people can drive and get to work and get to school and get to the grocery store just to make a difference. I like that, but man, when I heard five people, $500.

First I was like, wow, we're driving a big old, you don't have to even drive a big old truck anymore for a $100. Good for him and good for the folks that are jumping in to help out as well. See, that's a great story. That is what it's all about. That was Tell Me Something Good. Lunchbox has been riding his bike to work a couple times a week. Yes. Save good gas money.

Oh, great gas money. I mean, I get the breeze in my hair, got the helmet on. I get a little sweaty, a little workout before I get to work. It's great. No accidents. Well, I had my first, why am I doing this moment the other day when I was leaving work. So I'm driving. What do you mean?

Well, like, oh, like, why I'm riding my bike to work? Yeah, well, I'm riding my bike to work because the car tried to take me out. I was driving. It's like a north-south road, and I'm heading south. And this dumb lady is looking at her phone, pulling out of the parking lot. She goes to take a left. And I have to yell, hey! And I swerve to the right, jump off my bike, and dive into the grass.

You made a junk for it. Because, I mean, she was going to hit me right on my left side. She was going to hit me. Quick thinking. So you just dove into the grass. Anybody see you? No. No one saw me.

She didn't. Oh, she throws. her hands up and then, you know, sorry and keeps on driving, but it's like, and I was like, you idiot. And I was so mad. But it was just like, and I sat there and I got my water bottle off my bike and I sat there for like five minutes going, because she almost hit you. Because she almost hit me. And it was my first moment of like, is this the stupidest thing I've ever done in my life as riding my bike to work? Or was she stupid for being on her phone while she's driving down the road? Well, yes, that was it. Because she was pulling out of a parking lot and

so I could see her looking down on her phone because I was watching her because as a cyclist, you have to be hyper aware. You do have to be hyper aware. You do. Motorcycle too. Yes. And so I could see her going, going, and she's looking and she never looks up and starts to take a left. And I'm like, whoa!

If you hadn't seen her. Oh, she'd hit me. No doubt. Wow. What do you get the money you could have made from that, buddy? If he was still alive. I mean. It's a risk he got to take.

Let's be real. I think I still would have been alive because she was just pulling out of a parking lot. But I think I probably went out of broken leg because she would have hit my left side. I'm glad you didn't get hit. But if you have to jump off your bike. Yeah, I dove into the grass and I was just like, luckily it wasn't the pavement you had to dive on. That's a great.

But I would, hey, if I had to dive, I had to dive. It didn't matter, pavement or whatever. You think you've saved a bunch of money, I guess? I do believe I have. I mean, it really, I mean, my car, I haven't filled up my car in three weeks. Oh, that's amazing. I'm surprised that's your only near miss. With all the cars around.

Yes. So far. I mean, it's still early in my cyclist career. When do you think it gets too cold to cycle? Or does it not? I don't think it does because the colder it is, the better it feels. Like when it's 95 degrees outside, it's like, oh my God, and you're dripping sweat. When it's like 50, it's like, whew, this is beautiful.

Any listeners ever drive up besides you? Go lunchbox. No, not yet. And that's what I'm waiting for because when I'm stopped to the stoplight. You're waiting on that. I'm surprised. You're so famous. Well, because I have a helmet on.

People aren't expecting to see such a celebrity on a bike. And so I sit at a stoplight. And, you know, there's cars on both side of me or behind me. And, I mean, I can't wait for the one time. I'm like, oh, great. They're going to roll down the road. What up, lunch, right? Hey, can I get a picture?

Let me take my helmet off. But this hasn't happened. You're annoyed at a situation that hasn't happened. I know, but I imagine that they probably see me and they're like, oh, I don't want to interrupt this bike riding. Oh, so it would have happened. Yes, but please, people, stay off your phones. A cyclist.

I mean, our lives are very valuable and we need you to pay attention. You respect them more, don't you? I do. Like, it's so scary. Like, it's like, guys, just put your phones down. Please, it's not that important. Like, you're in the parking lot looking at your phone. So why not just sit in the parking lot and finish looking at your phone?

That's true. You know, what's tricky is maps. Maps, I agree. Because I don't text and drive. I will send a text or a tweet if I'm at a stop light or read a tweet. And I get a lot of these, uh-uh, little horn honogs. And that's okay. But sometimes I have to have my phone up and I'm looking at as I'm going because of a map.

And that'll get you. Maybe she was looking at a map on how to get to the orphanage to adopt a kid or something. Oh. Now you feel guilty, don't know. I'm not going to get it. All right. Well, glad you're safe. Yes, I'm okay.

Hey, but no scrapes, no bruises. Good to go, and I'll be riding my bike home today. Give you hear about hot dogs, and they're like, you don't want to know what's in a hot dog. Oh, yeah, of course. What do you think's in a hot dog? Well, the ones that aren't 100% all beef are just ground up parts from the animal, from the pig or the whatever.

I don't mind it. I never know anyway, really what meat I'm getting. You know, put a little A1 on it. Chef's kiss. Yeah. But mostly hot dogs are water. That's the simple ingredient that makes. makes up half a hot dogs.

Really? It's almost 50% water. Well, I love a hot dog. I don't have a lot of them. I used to eat cold hot dogs constantly. Just go to the fridge, get them cheap. Just grab the weir in it. Man.

Really? It did not taste good, but I had them at a time of my life that I go back to. It was very, like, my early years of college when I was really struggling. But, like, I have the greatest, like, feeling in my heart about those times when I was struggling hard when the whole world is my oyster. And I get those cold hot dogs and be like, oh, I've got to grab something to go to work. I'd take a couple hot dogs, eat them in the car on the way to work. work. No bun, no heat.

Yeah, exactly. That's how they were. It tasted like that. But man, love the good times rolls, I'd say. And I drive an hour and a half to work every day. Dang. Speaking of eating, is there anything in a restaurant you go and you're like, I'm just not going to eat that? I don't eat that. I don't eat that. Not, I used to be that way. There's a lot of things I didn't eat. But now I'll pretty much eat just about anything. I won't eat an octopus. It doesn't matter. Oh, yeah. We'll go to seafood places and they'll be like, you want this dog.

I will not touch octopus for any reason whatsoever, mostly because I won't. watch that documentary on Netflix called the octopus buddy. What's it called my octopus teacher? To me, my octopus buddy. It's a great, great documentary. The guys, it's weird. It's weird, but you learn a lot about this octopus, and then you learn how similar we are to them

and how they think they have similar thinking. They can do multi-level type. It's just, octopus is so smart, so I can't eat it. What about Calamari? I guess it's a squid. They're dumb. They're dumb. They're dumb.

Squitter dumb. I don't even think squid. Scientists say that humans and octopus brains share some genes that are believed to be connected to learning and memory. So another story about how smart these octopuses are or octopi. I prefer octopi, but it could be octopuses, huh? I feel like we looked this up before and it's octopuses. Yeah, I'd rather say octopi, I think. Scientists say the discovery gives them a way to study how intelligence evolves.

The results were an intentional collaboration between 20 researchers. They did it all together and they're like, hey, guys, octopuses are smart. they're so smart. Like this guy would go, if you haven't seen this documentary, he's nutty because he'd go hang out with an octopus every day. And his wife had to be like, really? Hang out with me. Every day he went to search for this octopus.

And they became like buds. It's crazy, huh? It's so good. Like when Bobby talked about it was like, this is going to be so stupid. And you watch it and you're like, this is fascinating. I cannot believe I'm so invested in a guy and an octopus every single day. It almost was a weird love story. You're like, are they going to do it?

What? You don't think that. A little bit because the music would be like slow and sensual. What? 100%. Yeah. I'm like, is he going to go and just cross the line? What? Would you have been like, okay, I did not expect this? It just depends about that the love is true or not.

But he didn't. That's not a spoiler. He didn't. But sometimes when they play slow music and you're like, what is going on? And when I tried to recommend it to my brother, that's why he won't watch you. He was like, I don't want to watch some love relationship between a guy and an octopus. That's too weird.

Hey, does he kiss it? No. Okay. But if he did, it'd be like, Like him kissing a, like your dog? Like you're like, It is fantastic. But I don't kiss my dog at a romance.

But it's a great, it's a great documentary. It is a great documentary. And because of that, I will not eat an octopus at a restaurant. Okay. Good point. Yeah. I won't eat a dog. Well, that doesn't nerve service.

Well, where are you going to get a dog? I'm proud of you, buddy. Thank you. Way to stand for something. In America, at least. I will not order that dog. Here's a voicemail from Brianna in San Antonio. Hi, Bobby.

I just wanted to tell you this cool thing that happened to me this week. When my boyfriend proposed, I happen to know that you and Caitlin's song is Neon Moon. And when my boyfriend proposed to me this weekend, it was the next song to play. I just thought that was fun. Love the show. Well, great. I love it. Neon Moon, one of our chapters of music.

I think our song, if we really had to pick one, is probably Jake Owen made for you. We walked down the aisle to that song or she did. I always thought I should have walked down the aisle, looking back. No, you wait at the front. Yeah, but even pre-wedding, I was like, I should walk down the aisle. We really get shafted as dudes. I want to have my moment. So this was our song, right?

And so that's probably number one. I think number two is probably Brooks and Dunn, Neon Moon. Not a romantic song, by the way. We knew that. It was just, it would come on all the time when we first started dating. Because I would listen to like the 90s, I heart channel. or it would just randomly show up. And she knows every lyric to every song.

So it just became part of our, like when I hear it, I think of us the early dating part of it. And then Ronnie Dunn sang at the wedding, which was awesome, which kind of cemented that. So, but when I think back as musical chapters, like, do a Lipa, don't start now, which is this one. This was way early. Dating?

Yes, way, way early. When I think of this, I think about her because we'd always do the drum part together and goes, but I mean, she wasn't even living here yet. She was living in California. So do a leap, but Jay going,

Brooks and Dunn. But the chapter now, as far as like music, is Ben Rector. And so we listen to this album all the time. But this is a song called Hanging Out. So the song's like, I've been kind of hanging out,

doing things you don't write songs about. Like live in normal life. And she's always like, this is what we're trying to do with you. like just live a normal life. Everything doesn't have to be for content or for the radio show. You're just trying to have you relax and live a normal life. And we got into a pretty good spot, but we listen to this record all the time.

And so, I would say that's kind of our musical chapters. But Mount Rushmore of songs, that's it. Jake Owen made for you, Neon Moon, Dua Lepa, and Ben Rector. Quite a dinner party, by the way. It's all very different. And they're all alive, which is good. Eddie, what's you in your wife's song? One song.

Do you have one? Gosh. I mean, we've had so many through the years, but I would go with you two, and it is called... Oh, it's an album cut? Yeah, it's like an album cut. Pass. boring. We don't know it.

We can't sing along. All I want is you, I think. With or without you. Okay. Hey, you know what? For the sake of this thing, we'll do. Yes. With the without you.

Damn, that's good. What's your, you guys are song? I mean, a lot of it's Texas country for sure, because that's what we listen to a lot of, especially in our early days. But so I'll just say Pat Green crazy because that's... Sing that one. I'm crazy. If I am truly crazy. You know, I know I'm like my life that way.

And if I'm really going on out of my mind, won't you hop on board and make your get away? Yeah, something like that. It's been a minute. Sounds familiar. I don't ever really know all the words of song. I just sing along. But it's, yes, that's the gist. If I am truly crazy.

You know I like my life out of way. And if I'm really going on out of my mind, won't you hop on board and make you work it. Oh, you know it, boss? Yeah, of course. He does not. But that's basically it. It's like they're crazy in love.

Lunchbox? You and your wife, you have a song? Yeah. One she always likes is tonight's going to be a good, good night. I don't know the news. Like IPs? Yeah. I don't know why.

That's interesting. That's what she... That's a jam. Because tonight's gonna be a good night. Because tonight's gonna be a good good night. Mussel tough. Duh, da, da, da, da. Yeah, she loves that song.

Interesting that's you guys a song. That's, well, I mean, I don't really have a song that I would pick, but whenever we'd go out. Pick one. Pick one. You and her. What song remind you and your wife? Smack that. Okay, we knew that was coming.

I mean, that's the go-to. Well, I mean, we got three kids. knew he was going to say that song. Three kids. Ray, you and Bay have a song? Yeah, it's got to be anytime Lizzo comes on. So, I mean, the newest one about damn time. But that can't be your song forever.

It's always the newest one for him. It's when she goes crazy to a Lizzo song and I'm like, oh my gosh, here we go. Let's sing it together. So Lizzo's like your artist. Yes, I would say. But your song. I mean, what was one of the first ones she did? Thank you.

It's this one probably, it's Amy's right here. Oh, that's different. That's not it. That's not the first one. It's like, why a man, Greg. There you go. That's what it is then. Thank you. Ray has nine songs.

Also, I just lyric checked myself and nailed it. I don't think you did. Even if you lyric checked it. If you listened back, I think there's a lot of... At the beginning, I was a little... But eventually I got there. A chorus is right. All right.

Well, thank you for that voicemail. You guys can leave us voicemails at any time. 877-Bobby. And then also, congratulations, Brianna, on your proposal. That's pretty good. I mean, aside from the Brooks and Dunn song, He got proposed to. That's pretty cool.

It's a voicemail from Kerry in North Carolina. I am thinking about lunchbox's house and how he has restoration companies there, and he's waiting on them to come do something about it. We do subcontracting work for restoration companies like that all the time, and I want to prepare you for the long journey ahead of you. There's always missteps, and it's two more weeks, two more weeks, two more weeks. You will be dealing with it forever, so good luck, bud. That's encouraging.

Oh man, thanks for the good news, man. That was a positive call. We had a barn in our backyard we were working on forever. It was supposed to take like two months to have that thing done. It took a year. Okay. A year. You're not helping, but you're not like, I think you're going to give me something like a spin on the positive.

Like, tell me something good. Well, they did finish it. Eventually. But it took a year. Gosh. Yeah, sorry about that. Any update? No, just trying to find someone to come fix it.

Just holes in the roof. There's holes in the roof. And there's insulation just hanging down. Duck, oh, don't hit your head on the insulation. Wow. Dang. Nobody can, like, temporary roof it or something? Well, we have tarps over the holes.

That ain't temporary roofing. I don't know. I can come over and put some duct tape on that thing. Yeah, I roll up there with you too. Hardboard or something. Something. One storm and we're... Oh, yeah, a big storm.

You're done. I know. I don't want to think about it. Hey, you're done. But we need to think about it. We're just getting worse and worse for him. The Bob Bowl show. Here's Amy's pile of stories.

Average life expect. And see right now is 78 and a half. That's all? Yeah, that's all. That's the average. How old do you want to live till? I want to live forever. 100?

Oh, wow. Yeah, I want to be the person that jumps out of the airplane at 100 or throws the first pitch at 110. Yeah. Or runs a marathon at 130. Oh, man, that would be awesome. I didn't know you're going to say 100, but lucky for you. I have the keys to living to 100 years old, according to experts.

Whiskey and cigarettes every Tuesday. No, but I did find an article of one woman who's 100. and seven, and she said the key to her longevity has been living alone and never getting married. The key to anyone living a long time is genetics. Yeah, especially 107. I mean, come on. Okay, so what are the keys here? All right.

Exercise daily. This shows to keep your body functioning as it's designed to do. Five days a week. Nobody goes seven. Even nobody goes seven. That's unhealthy, but yes. Eat balanced and nutritious foods that, you know, feed your organs and your body and are healthy for your brain, especially after 50 years old.

Okay, I'm good. for a while than on Laffy Tapies. Good. I got a few more years. This one worries me for you. Okay. Get more than seven hours of sleep every night. Yeah, that's brutal.

I try now, but man, I'm in an unhealthy little span right now. Sometimes I get two or three, and it's not even because I'm doing anything crazy. I just wake up and I'm up. I can't go back to sleep. So, yeah, I'll probably die tomorrow if that's case. It says your poor sleep starts to affect your vision, blood flow, and just overall positive mojo. And then this one, this is where, I, I hate it. I told you about forest bathing where you go sit with the trees, but it says here you've got to get outdoors daily.

Fresh air and not being cooped up inside all day affects all your senses. That's overrated. I like good Wi-Fi. Is that on there? Okay. You're definitely not making a choice. All right. So a couple is kind of being trolled online because they spend date nights door dashing together.

It's their way. Like working? Yeah. Instead of spending money on their date, they make money on their date. That sounds fun. That's great. And you've got to work. You got to pay bills.

That's exactly right. I thought, I thought, why are people hating. on them finding ways to hang out together and doing something they enjoy and they go to different restaurants, pick up food, deliver it to people's houses, but they get to be together the entire time. I bet they don't enjoy. They'd probably rather do other things, but they can probably spend time together while they got to pay the bills.

Like they probably find it fun to be together while they're doing something that's not the most fun. And they probably just shared it as something they do together. I was like, hey, we do this. Not because we want to do it, but because we want to spend time together and we got to, somebody's got to work and pay the bills. And then, of course, they got haters. But I was wondering, what if you ever positioned to Caitlin? I mean, I get it.

If you needed to pay the bills, fine. But say you had a work event, a work thing. No, never. No. She wouldn't like that. Never. No chance. All right.

If you want to sleep on Dolly Pardons' former tour bus, you can head on over to Dollywood and do that. You just need to give them $10,000 for two nights. It's that much? Yes. Now, a portion of the proceeds is going to be donated to the Dollywood Foundation. That doesn't make sense. Even like super fancy hotels are not that. Well, but here's the twist.

I mean, you get two people. Does Dolly show up? Two people can sleep on this tour bus, which her tour bus is amazing. She has a, she has a bathtub on there. Yeah, I've been a lot of tour buses. We've used them. I don't care. Even the nicest tour buses, I'd rather be in a hotel.

It's still a tour bus. It's still a bus, yeah. Well, that sleeps two guests, and then your reservation comes with an additional Dreammore room at Dollywood that sleeps four. But still $10,000 is a lot of money. If you, you know, try to. $1,000 a night for a tour bus? If you want to live out this dream, dollywood.com.

That's not a dream. Didn't we sleep on... She would need to show up. Zeppelins? No, no. Whose was it? Definitely not Zeppelin's. Doobie brothers.

It was one of the... It was a sweet home Alabama guys. Leonard Skitter. Remember we rented their bus for one trip? I don't. You don't? I mean, it'll have been like two founding members. We've had everybody's bus over the years.

We've just been like, we gotta get a bus. Who do we have? Maybe it's a false story. Okay. I made me. That's my file. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news.

For over a decade, Johnny Mayhound, his wife Monica, have been encouraging all their neighbors to do wellness checks on elderly residents in their East Cleveland apartment complex. So they make sure that their older neighbors have proper hydration and supplies and make sure their air conditioners are also working. And he does this with his own time and his own money. And he goes around, knocks on doors, knows where they live, and goes, hey, do you care if I check your AC to make sure it's working? And so now Northern Ohio is in the

midst of a heat wave. And so he's also going to other folks in the apartment complex. Like, hey, if you don't mind and you see someone walking around, if they're a bit elderly, can you just check in on them? And be like, hey, is it working? Do you have water? Because of this, four or five, six people have been saved in the last couple years depending on who you talk to. According to Johnny, he doesn't brag on himself. But some of the people that work the apartment complex are like there have been multiple older folks that have been saved. because of his efforts to make sure they're taking care of before anything even breaks. So a big shout out to Johnny. They call him Johnny Cowboy Mayhew and his wife, Monica.
