Hey guys, welcome to the show. A little later, Luke Brian will be on. I want to start with this,
because Amy's known to spoil movies accidentally. Yes. No malice in your heart. No. No intention
of ruining a movie for someone. It's happened maybe twice. No. Oh, twice? You don't even
realize when it happens sometimes. Over 10 times. You spoil all kinds of stuff. Ten times.
So, well, hey, 16 years.
Less than one a year.
Yeah.
So what's happened though recently?
A listener called in mad at me and claiming that I need to be punished because now we have a punishment.
If you spoil a show or a movie, you get punished.
Yeah.
And he said, I spoiled your children's book.
What did you say?
Because it's Stanley's The Dog, First Day of School.
And obviously it's about all these dogs.
And I mentioned how there was a cat.
And he's like, I didn't know that yet.
I didn't know.
He hadn't gotten that far in the book.
Are you serious?
That's funny.
He didn't know that there was a cat.
And he said that I spoiled it.
How do I feel about this?
I don't feel any way about it other than it's not a spoiler.
He's an idiot, you think?
I don't want to say that.
Well, Bones, I am looking at the cover of the book now,
and there is no cat on the cover of the book.
The cat does come out of nowhere in the book.
You don't know much about the cat of the cat's story.
And then it's like, wow,
cat's kind of pivotal.
Mm-hmm.
Is that a spoiler too?
I don't know. I'm going to stop talking.
What do you think, Lunchbox, did Amy spoil
the book? Because if so, she has to be punished.
No. No. She's spoiled.
No. I'm asking, because
again, this will come back on you, so remember what you're saying
here. Do you think legitimately
that Amy spoiled my children's book?
No, it's so stupid.
She named a character in the book.
Who cares?
Like a lot of people we say characters and TV shows that you haven't seen yet,
but obviously there's going to be more than one character in the book or TV show.
Now, if I say what the cat's part is in the book, that would be spoiling.
Yes.
Eddie?
No.
Dude, it's a children's book.
How many pages is this thing?
40?
She's spoiled?
Oh, way less than that.
I was like 40.
20?
Like 20.
I have not.
My kids have read it.
I have not read it.
I mean, I don't care that you haven't read it.
I mean, it's a children's book, guys.
It's a children's book.
Okay.
Okay, then you're in the clear
The cat, big part of the book though
But also, you know, here's the story
Stanley, he's got an owner, big head Bobby, who's me
And Stanley's first day at school
But he's nervous about the first day at school
Because he doesn't know if he's gonna fit in
And you're right, dogs actually represent humans
But I use Stanley as like a warm figure
Who's in a real dog anyway
And so Stanley's nervous about all these other dogs
And they don't treat him great, honestly
And...
Don't ruin that
Okay, I'll stop there
Spoiler!
You have to punish yourself
But I wonder too if I read them
read the book. I thought about reading the book in a video, like put it on Instagram.
The whole thing is like, is that a spoiler? And everybody's like, no.
Because kids want to read the book 500 times.
Yeah.
I haven't said shit I'll read it on the air.
I'm like, go for it. Because kids read a book 500 times.
Over and over and over and over.
That's true.
And they want the same book.
Same book.
Over and over and over.
Lunchbox hates the book.
I feel just like, goodness.
He's got two at this point.
He hates it.
Okay.
You're cool.
You're in the clear.
For a second, for a second, though, I was starting to shift on it.
But you're right.
You didn't say what happened with the cat.
We're good, right?
Morgan, why are you smiling?
Spoiler?
No, it's not a spoiler at all.
I'm smiling because it's so stupid.
Okay, it is.
Okay, let's get started with the show,
which, by the way, if you want to order Stanley the dog,
the first day of school, get it wherever you go books.
Amazon, well, that's all I know.
Where else do you get books?
Bookstores down the road?
Yeah, bookstores.
Yeah, there you go.
On the Bobby Bones show now.
Luke Brian.
What's up, buddy?
What's up?
I have a couple questions that immediately come to mind.
Had a friend text me, and she said,
hey, she lives in a small town in Arkansas,
and I won't say where, in case it's like a secret spot of yours.
And she said, Luke Bryant just flew in and is going fishing in some lake here.
Is there any chance Luke just flew in and is fishing?
And I said, there's a good chance because Luke does a lot of fishing.
I said, I don't know where he went today.
Did you fly into Arkansas just to fish recently?
Yes, I did.
I was there yesterday.
Okay, I thought it may have been you, but why did you go up to Northwest Arkansas to fish?
So I left out of Vegas and I took a helicopter across the country to see the country from a helicopter.
And we stopped in trout fishing destinations.
And then our last stop was the White River in Arkansas yesterday.
And we had a great time.
It was awesome.
A helicopter all the way across the country?
Is that fast or slow?
It's perfect because I think it was about 12 hours of total flight, but we busted it up over four days.
I mean, the coolest part was we were flying over herds of wild horses, and it was like the most, one of the most spectacular things I've ever seen.
And you don't get nervous to fly in it.
I get nervous to fly in an airplane, much less a helicopter, but do you no nerves at all?
I just awesome.
The one that I'm in is the safest you can have, and my pilot is, I mean, he's a 21-year retired Apache pilot.
He flew in Afghanistan for 21 years, and, you know, it's just all about being as safe as you can be.
But it's been, it's pretty amazing when you see the changes of the landscape.
At one point, Bobby, we fished a river that was coming out of the side of a mountain, and we flew that river from northern Wyoming.
We flew that river from Wyoming to Nebraska, one river.
And so you did this after leaving Vegas, so was it a residency show?
And you're like, this is a trip I always wanted to make.
So we got it organized.
Let's go do it.
Yeah, we did.
I played my show Saturday in Vegas.
And then Sunday morning, we left at 7 a.m.
And flew up to Wyoming and flew through the Rockies.
I mean, it's spectacular.
It was amazing.
It's awesome.
Luke Bryan is on with us right now.
And my second question immediately is I look behind you.
And there are, I mean, I counted 13 guitars just in what I can see in your video here.
Why so many guitars in the house?
Like, do every one of them have a different sound?
I don't understand.
This is my songwriting room.
And so when I have songwriters come over, first of all, I tell them don't bring a guitar.
And then some of these songwriters that come in, they'll see a guitar that they've always wanted to play.
And that'll be the one that they play for the day when they're writing.
But over the years, being out on the road, you know, anytime you purchase a guitar, it's always a great investment.
If you purchase a great guitar, so I have quite a few acoustics that I love.
Well, you say, you tell people not to bring a guitar, but let's say you said, hey, Bobby can't wait to write a song with you.
Come over, and I get there, and I'm like, well, look, I'm left-handed.
Where's your left-handed selection?
Do you have those, or are you discriminatory toward people like myself?
Well, you've got to give me a minute and we'll read, flip it upside down.
You know the deal.
Yeah, then you bust it.
Well, the nut breaks because all the strings weren't.
Anyway, anyway.
All right, Luke Bryan's on with us.
We're going to get to this new song coming up in just a second.
But I got a couple things I wanted to ask you about as far as things I've seen on the internet.
And I was watching this clip of you with a baby.
And I didn't have the sound on.
I had no context.
And I just thought you were singing with like a nephew or a niece or something because I didn't know.
And then I further investigated.
And that wasn't the story.
So how did you have a random baby in your arm while singing?
So I was during all my friends' sake,
I go out into the crowd, and I'm going through the crowd singing, you know, all my friends say we're rocking, life's good, and I see a woman holding her, her, I mean, it wasn't a baby, but it wasn't a toddler. It was like six months old range, you know, you know, holding its head up.
Let me look like a baby to me, but what do I know? Anyway, I got you. Go ahead.
It wasn't newborn, but yeah.
So I'm like, oh, a baby, this is going to be, this is going to be amazing. I just grabbed the.
baby and started singing and then to cut up with the mother, I just walked off from her and just kind of, you know, I guess, I guess maybe I'll have kidnapping charges filed against him. But anyway, I took him on stage and sang a little bit. It was a funny moment, you know, and when we, you know, through the craziness of Vegas, you know, when I, when the mother came and got the baby, you know, I was like at some point, you know, some point, this show is so crazy at some point I got a baby. And what was funny is my, my, my, my mother came and
My 14-year-old Bo, he's on Instagram, so he's always seeing what dad's up to, you know.
And that night, Bo called me.
He's like, Dad, did you adopt a baby?
And I'm like, yeah, I'm bringing it home.
He's going to be a great little brother.
You're going to love him.
Anyway, I let him off the hook.
You know, you're not a guy, at least that I know of, and I've, you know, obviously seen you around town.
You've driven over to the house before.
You're always in like a truck, like a normal, nice truck.
I've never seen you like a crazy, fancy car.
Did you ever have that stage where you bought some crazy car when you first started to, like, make big money or huge success?
You know, the only, like, fast car I ever bought was when I heard about the Hellcat coming out, the Dodge, you know, the Dodge Hellcat.
I knew a Dodge dealer, and I called him, and I pre-ordered two of them, and I gave one to my dad, who he still has it, and then I kept one, and I drove it.
I probably drove it 10 or 15 times, and then somebody offered me a crazy price for it, so I sold it.
But I've never been a – I've never been like a fast car kind of guy.
But anyway, but I'm not that kind of guy.
I'm always like to just ease around in my truck and tear up my truck, not a fast car.
As far as when you do songs with other artists, because I was listening to Jordan Davis by dirt a little bit ago,
and Jordan's a close buddy of mine and was just talking to him about the song and how it's really changed his career.
It's a massive song for him.
And I'm sure that you get so many requests to collaborate with artists and beyond that you have to say no to because you only have so much time and capacity.
But why that song with Jordan Davis, what about it made you go, I want to be on that one?
Well, I think started collaborations five, six years ago to where I don't think there is a pop song out there that isn't a collaboration anymore.
But I think country has morphed into a little bit of that.
But long story, when Jordan sent me the song, it just, you know, I've always told people, you get the question all the time, who do you want to collaborate with?
than I have always said the song will dictate the collaboration.
So when Jordan sent me the song, I really, the song spoke to me.
Obviously, I mean, I've really been blessed and have gotten several farms through the years
that I love to go take my boys hunting and fishing on.
So when I heard the song, it just really spoke to me.
And like I said, Jordan, Jordan is just a great, sweet soul down.
to earth and I just felt like it'd be fun to be a part of it.
You know, I never wanted to, like, through all this, I never wanted, I wanted Jordan to have
the credit.
I didn't want to inadvertently come in and, like, take over the moment for Jordan.
You know, I wanted it to be his baby, his deal, and it all worked out perfect.
I mean, you know, he would call me many, many times throughout the life of the song going,
man, you know, never had a song move this fast and all that.
And I'm like, listen, you got to remember, I'm on a huge song with you.
So as an artist, no matter what, the main thing you can do is be on massive songs.
I mean, anytime you're a part of a massive song, no matter how it happens,
you better never take it for granted.
So as much as Jordan was having fun with it, I was having as much fun as him.
It's time for the good news.
With lunchbox.
There was an old man trying to get off the bus in Philadelphia.
Oh, Sonny, I don't know if I'm going to make it down the stairs.
When three boys jumped into action, they got his walker, helped him down the bus,
and a bystander started filming it.
He's like, man, those kids did that and no one noticed.
So he walked up and paid each kid for helping the old man.
Oh, somebody that just saw it went out and giving money.
They gave money out of their own pocket.
Yeah, good for him.
He'd have to do that.
And here's a clip of him saying why he gave the money.
Don't stop doing that, you hear me?
Don't stop doing that.
When you see somebody who needs help, always help him.
And they're going to keep in the old.
All right?
Be safe.
Oh, wow, little kids.
Oh, yeah, yeah, little kids.
I didn't think they were like 20-year-olds.
I'm talking little kids.
And grandpa got off the bus okay.
Yeah, it's good.
Those little kids did that.
because they wanted to help him.
Also, then the guy went viral.
This guy went viral.
Yeah, so he's probably making money off his video, huh?
No, I was not saying that.
That's a great story.
That is what it's all about.
That was Tell Me Something Good.

Lunchbox told me he had to dock the pay of another waiter or waitress.
And these are always very sensitive things that people get really mad at them.
What happened?
So we go to eat and I took my three kids and I took my wife and the two older kids sit down and the lady comes up.
And so I guess she's a waitress, right?
It's okay.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think so, right?
A server.
Yeah, I didn't know.
Maybe server.
Go ahead.
Server.
And she goes, oh, hi guys.
And she's talking to my two sons.
And she goes, hey, after dinner, I got good news.
I got candy and ice cream for you.
And I'm like, what?
No, that's not how you start out the conversation at the table.
You do not promise my kids candy and ice cream after the meal.
Because guess what?
All they said for the next 30 minutes is, I want candy.
I want the ice cream.
Where's the candy?
Where's the ice cream?
Did they sit there and eat their meal?
No, because you know what they wanted?
The candy and ice cream.
I want candy and ice cream now, too.
It worked.
But I was not.
Who says I was going to give my kid candy and ice cream?
cream that night. I didn't plan on buying
ice cream or getting them candy, but this
lady just kept going, oh yeah, you almost done?
I got your candy and ice cream. And I'm like, no,
you can't come to a table
and promise someone's kids
candy and ice cream at the end of the meal.
Okay, I do see where that would be
difficult. Oh. I do
see where that would be difficult. Okay. So
what kind of restaurant was it? It was a
restaurant with
like noodles.
Let's just say. Like a chain. No, no, not a
chain. Okay. It's got noodles.
No, it's like, it's got noodles, it's got rice.
It's like a Chinese restaurant?
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
So you go to this place, you finish the meal, the ticket for three kids and two adults,
40 bucks or so?
It's like 50 bucks.
Okay.
What do you tip?
I tip $5.
Oh my gosh.
10%.
That's brutal.
Okay, so why?
Because you made my life so difficult and you did something that you're not supposed to do.
How is the service, though, like the real service with food?
Oh, it's just fine.
She was nice.
But the fact that you made my life so difficult
and you promised my kids candy and ice cream,
which you just can't promise other kids,
hey, I'm going to give you candy and ice cream into the end of this.
Boy.
Well, some advice that I was given pretty recently
is that I should judge people a little more on intention
more than what actually is happening.
Because I think our intention was to actually be a good waitress
and be there and be like, I'm going to provide for you.
I don't think.
she was really trying to drive you crazy.
I understand.
It's a bad move.
It's a bad move.
A good waitress at the end.
Surprise!
You know what I mean?
Don't promise it up front.
But even then I wouldn't do that.
I don't know.
What if there is no,
we're not doing sugar that night or...
I don't...
That's what I'm saying, Amy, so you feel me.
You're with me.
It's two different things.
It's two different things.
I think her intention was to be like,
oh, there are kids.
I'm going to make them happy.
I'll make the table happy.
It didn't hit.
She shouldn't have done that.
Service wasn't bad.
But I think her intention was super positive
of trying to be extra.
But I don't think it deserved cutting half her tip off.
Oh, Amy, you feel me though.
No, I understand what you're saying.
And I understand what you're saying.
I'm not taking a waiter.
If a waiter came up to me, it's like,
I'm going to give you ice cream of candy at the end of a meal.
I'll be like, I don't want the meal.
I want ice cream candy.
Oh, you.
Thank you.
Yeah, me.
And then Caleb would be annoyed the whole meal because that's all I wanted.
Yeah.
So I get it, but I don't think it deserves cutting her money in half
because I think she was trying to give excellent, excellent service.
Amy?
Yeah, I mean, she maybe just doesn't have kids or.
Obviously.
Or this has worked for her in the past.
And it's like, luckily, it's worked out.
And she's ended up with a bear tip or something.
And it just so happens that it was one of the, it ruined your life, I think you said.
It ruined your life?
I didn't say it ruined my life.
I mean, it was a stressful dinner of just the kids the whole time.
Maybe sometimes the kids are better if they know ice creaming.
That's what I was going to say.
I mean, I would have used it to my advantage of being like, well, you're not going to get that ice cream unless you eat all your food.
like she was being sweet
wasn't she? Her intention was to be
sweet loving extra yes
So you cut it
And you felt good about that
You felt good
You punished her because
Because she can't come to the table
promising my kid something that I didn't say
They could have
Did you at least tell her that
So she learned why you did
Because if you cut her tip in half
And there's something you want her to take from it
You should at least let her know that
No I just put
I put five on there
And bailed out
So Bones
You think he should do $5
and then a note underneath, you should not have.
I think he should tip normally in this situation.
Or I should flip the receipt over and write a whole article about how she shouldn't do that.
But if really you're annoyed by something and you're tipping her less because of it,
then at least she wouldn't feel like her service was bad.
And I don't encourage you to do this, but I'm thinking if that is what you're going to do,
she's just like, man, that's a cheap dude, that stinks.
And I got less money.
I wonder why.
But if you're like, hey, I don't do this.
But if you were like, hey, man, it really was tough when you promised the kids candy and ice
It made our dinner very difficult.
I wouldn't encourage you to do that on the ticket.
At least she would know why you were a jerk.
I wasn't a jerk about it.
I was nice about it.
To tip her half, I feel like it's kind of a jerk mood.
How were you nice about it?
You weren't nice at all.
You didn't know.
You took her lesson and said nothing.
There was nothing nice about it.
Yeah, but I didn't confront her.
I didn't make her feel bad about it.
I just said, hey, you know, it's kind of a lesson learned.
Now she knows.
She doesn't know.
That's my point.
She doesn't know.
She probably has an idea.
She could probably see the fire in my eyes when she's promising
Okay, now you're wanting her to read your mind.
And I've learned in a relationship.
That's not, I can't expect for Caitlin to read my mind.
In any relationship, anything, she doesn't even know you.
That's all.
You shouldn't have done it.
I don't think you should have tipped her half.
But you feel my pain.
I feel the pain.
Thank you.
No, no.
You're on my team.
I like it.
There's nuance in this story.
Okay, but I'd say no bad move.
Eddie?
I mean, it's fine.
I mean, what she did was not a problem.
So the fact that he docked the tip, it's not good move.
Bad move, Amy?
Yeah, bad move.
No.
Amy, what happened with a tip of you?
your place. I walked away with the, you know, not the customer copy, but the, there's the store
copy. Oh, so you tipped her, wrote it, and you took that paper with you? So they took my credit card,
so I paid for my meal. So you tipped us and lunchbox did. Right. And it, it wasn't for days later
that I found the receipt in my purse and realized I did that. So, like, now my question is,
can I just go back and take the receipt with the tip and they run it and that per? Because all the
info's on it, they know who the server was and whatnot.
right?
What I would do if that bothers you,
because it's bothered me to go to Sonic and not tip,
and I've gone back and look for the person the next day.
What I would suggest you do is just take some cash.
Whatever, you're going to tip 20 bucks,
and go back and ask for them, just give them cash.
And you know the names that just say this is for a show and so.
Hopefully they're working.
But wait, you got a free meal.
If you took the receipt?
No, I ran the credit card.
That part they have, but they just don't know,
did I tip 20%, 30%?
If it bothers you.
At this point, they've probably forgot about it.
You tip 0%.
Yeah, YouTube's zero.
But they don't know.
No, they do, zero.
No, they know.
Zero.
They know what they got, not zero.
It was truly, that must happen
because I can't be the only person
that's walked off with both copies of the receipt.
Maybe I never heard of that before.
So maybe.
Okay.
But I would go back and say,
hey, is Mark here?
He was my waiter.
Well, that's easy.
And if he's not, be like,
okay, can I leave this from Mark in an envelope?
Oh, yeah, sure.
You can leave for Mark.
Yeah, here, come here.
They'll get it to them.
When I was waiting tables, people would drop stuff off for me.
Yeah, well, that's what I'm going to do.
So it's easy.
So lunchbox split his in half.
Amy split her's in $100.
Wow.
Who's the bad person here?
No taking ice cream there.
All right.
So here is a janitor that works at a school,
up on a little stage,
singing out of nowhere,
and people are just shocked at how good he is.
So an elementary school janitor doing a mic check for an assembly
because he's just setting it up,
gets on, and things don't stop believing.
And the kids are really young.
They're like kindergarten first graders.
Just the small time girl.
And then he walks off.
He's like, all right, it works.
Wow.
And he flips the buttons a little bit and he's like, all right, I'm done.
Like he's, as he's walking with a mic, he bends down.
He's like, all right, this is good.
Dude.
He's just singing loud so he can like test it at a, ah, and a talking.
Amazing.
And crushes it.
So the question is, is he good or is it good because it's unexpected?
Right?
Because he is in, he's just dressed to work at school.
a big thing of keys hanging off his pockets and a hat,
oversized, collared, shirt, and some blue jeans.
So let's hear it again.
Is it good, or is it good because it's just kind of random
because it's somebody who works at a school that you don't know as a good singer.
All right, thoughts, Amy?
Good. It's good.
Eddie?
Yeah, whether he's a janitor or not, he's really, really good.
Watchbox.
He's good because he's a janitor.
If you told me that that guy was trying to, like, trying out for Idol,
he wouldn't even make it to the next round.
I don't know that that's true.
Let me close my eyes.
And okay, he comes that to me.
Hey, man, I want to be a singer.
Well, all right, buddy.
Let me mentor you.
Sing a little something for me.
Go.
Just the small time to go.
Oh, God.
I heard much worse on Idol.
They got farther.
Wow.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And, you know, he didn't, like, warm up or anything either, and he's still really good.
No, dude, he sounds like the journey guy.
And you can tell it wasn't set up because the person recording goes, oh, God.
Yeah.
They didn't expect that to happen.
So they just happened to be filming.
Okay, hold on.
Go ahead.
So they just happened to be filming him setting up the mic because they had no idea he was going to sing.
Maybe there was a mom there and they were about to start the assembly.
Right.
But when they start the assembly, the kids are going to be out on stage or everything.
They're not going to be setting it up.
You're not going to be setting it up.
How many times do you guys go to a concert?
Maybe they're about to walk out from the side and he went to fix it real quick.
How often do you guys at a concert film them setting up the microphones?
Never.
I love it.
I go ahead and watch it after every show.
But that may not even be.
just a cell phone. That could be like a camera
that they're set up to record the whole thing.
You mean like they, it's maybe.
Screw assemblies, man. It's definitely a cell phone,
but it could have been a cell phone set out and they just hit record.
Correct. Yes. But you don't like it?
It's all set up and it isn't that good.
Who would become
viral first as a singer? Lunchbox are Abby?
As a singer. Abby. No, me because I would be so bad.
I mean, I mean, I mean. I'm saying she's good.
But you've sang so many times and you've not gone viral.
Have you heard your version of Let It Go?
I have not heard about it back. I'm not heard of it.
That's what I'm saying.
That did not go viral.
Like, Abby would not go viral for anything, like, for singing because she's not good enough and she's not bad enough.
She's just blah.
She's just whatever.
Oh, my gosh.
If I'm just being, we're just being real.
Yeah.
Like, unless she fell off stage or, like, if she just, you know, like smacked herself in the microphone or she, you know, or someone attacked her on stage because she was so bad.
Like, they were like, get off here.
Then she would go viral, but she ain't going viral for her voice.
And so you don't like this guy at all, Richard get all?
No.
And he doesn't deserve to go viral?
No.
And it wasn't real and it was set up.
Set up, and he's just good because he's a janitor.
Okay, we appreciate your viewpoint.
Thank you.
I actually like him.
Thank you is great, and don't think it was set up.
But I appreciate you sharing with me what you think.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Here's a voicemail from Allison in California.
Just listening to the segment about the life hacks of what to do if you run out of toilet paper,
and it reminded me of a story.
Years ago, my ex-boyfriend was using our bathroom,
and when there was a toilet paper in there,
he used the sock trick,
which my roommate found
stuffed in the toilet tank like months later.
And when confronted, he admitted that it was him.
Anyway, set a chair.
I mean, we talked about how do you get rid of it.
What do you do with the sock after you have to use it through a large of the city?
At some point, you got to go back and get it.
You got to go back to the scene of the crime at some point
and get rid of the body, you know?
All right.
Here's Amy's Pyle.
of stories. According to a new poll, the average person wants to see their friends a weekly,
so it's looking like four times a month is the magic number. I'm thinking about people that
Caitlin and I really consider friend friends, like that we hang out with. We try to see or go to
dinner or once a week, but there's only like two or three. But yeah, that sounds good.
Maybe once a week's a little much. But I'll say, yeah, once a week's good.
A lot of people feel like they don't see their close friends as often they like, but a good night out with friends is as healing as a therapy session.
Oh, that's the therapy thing you're talking about.
Yeah.
Yeah, it does feel good.
I like it.
You leave you're like, oh, that was fun.
But I don't like going out.
I like people, I like going to their house.
Right.
Well, that's what it means.
Like, it doesn't be like out at the club.
It's like, could be dinner.
Well, not the club.
Even out to dinner.
Yeah, I'd rather stay.
Yeah, like, we went over to Eddie's house the other night.
That was fun.
Or you come to our house.
We rarely go out out as a couples.
Do we?
We've done it a couple times, but no, I like the house visits better.
Me too, because then you got to pay a bill and wait for the wait a day to do.
All that.
All right, what else?
All right.
I know you gave us an update on your thank you card sort of recently, but have you worked on any more from your wedding?
Interesting, you've asked.
I have not.
Oh.
I'm not, we got married on July 17th, and I don't know how many we have to, probably 80% of them we haven't done.
Well, a poll was done, and only 9% of us are sending handwritten notes now.
It's more like a phone call or text.
But a handwritten note generally is not something expected.
I'm expected to do thank you cards for gifts for weddings,
which I think is terrible idea.
We should kill this.
Right.
You started doing video thank you messages.
Or I just say thank you.
Or you just know I'm thankful.
How about that?
You got me a gift.
You just know I'm thankful for the gift.
That's my favorite one right there.
You have to do anything.
Right.
Just know that I'm thankful.
Yes.
If you sent me a gift, I got it, and I'm so thankful.
Thank you.
It says here too that we might want to reconsider the whole handwriting note thing
because it's the most meaningful way to say thanks.
So we should pick up a pin and paper from time to time.
Absolutely.
It's very meaningful because it takes a lot of time to do.
Abby, when she didn't get the job here the first time,
sent me a thank you card for the interview.
It's why I hired her.
I was like, dang, she took a lot of time and wrote that note.
Boom.
Yeah, but I'm not.
I mean, I try, but I don't because I'm like,
oh, I should write a thank you.
It's four days of it gone by, and I'm like, ah, you know what?
It's too late.
They know your thanks.
They know I'm thankful.
That's right.
I think maybe it was Dirk's Bentley that was in here once in like one year.
he posted some picture and then he was telling us about how he wrote thank you notes for every single person that helps out like for his tour and team.
I mean, it was like so many. I mean, it lined his hallway and it wasn't just like one tiny paragraph.
I mean, it was a thoughtful whole page note to each person.
Well, I was just thinking like someone like him, he's so busy and like he made time for it.
I'm sure it meant a lot to his team. Okay, so country quiz. Who said, I've got people who say to me, I don't like country music, but I like you.
Okay, so if it's one person
I can give you multiple choice
Okay, go ahead
All right, Kane Brown
Okay, he's still in the running, go ahead
Eric Church
Okay, I can see people saying that to him
He's kind of like a rock vibe
You could like that, go ahead
Sam Hunt
That's too easy
It's not Sam Hunt
Because that you'd think Sam Hunt immediately
I'm gonna go Sam Hunt's off the board
Carrie Underwood
Nah
So it's going to be one of the first two
It's going to be Kane Brown
Because Carrie has pop song
So that's easy
So Kane or Church
I'm going to go
I don't think Eric Church would say this in an interview though
Where it's like hey man
Anybody like you?
Hey man uh
People tell me all time
They don't like country that like me
Yeah that didn't sound right
So through my process of elimination
I'm going with Kane Brown
Amy the answer is
Kane Brown
Yeah
And that folks
It's how I scored Hi Macy too
Wow
I never knew it
I just would eliminate them
Process of elimination
And Kane's point about that is
Good music is good music
And if you focus too much on labels
Then you're gonna miss out
You know I don't always think that's true
That good music's good music
Because sometimes I'm sure there's a rock and polka song
And I don't get it
And it doesn't win
I'm just like I bet that
Or a classic like classic music
Classical?
Yeah classical
Sorry I forgot the old
Big difference
They're like isn't this great
I'm like I don't get it
Like it's the greatest
and I'm saying, I'm sure it is.
But that good music can't win with me
because I don't understand what's going on here.
Not enough trumpet if you ask me.
I find something in it.
I make something out.
The violin, I just didn't really do it.
Some of those Chopin songs are they're so good.
Remember the time you act like you knew classical music?
I think I passed the test.
You failed miserably.
I don't remember that.
I'm Amy. That's my pile.
That was Amy's pile of stories.
It's time for the good news.
With Bobby.
Tell me something good.
Scott Thompson accidentally fell out of his boat while out on the Pacific Ocean,
and then he watched his boat sail off into the distance because he couldn't get back to it.
Oh, goodness.
Which has to be so helpless.
Lost at sea, you can't see land.
He started to freak out.
Like, I mean, the ocean is so big.
Yeah.
He's like, is this it for me?
So he heard a splash, and that splash was a dang seal.
And the seal helped him.
What?
What?
How?
He grabbed the seal?
And he wrote it?
The splash was a seal that Scott.
described as an angel that came to help him.
He said, it was a medium-sized harbor seal, and it would go underwater, and he came up and nudged
me like a dog comes up and nudges your leg.
After being pushed along by the seal, Scott felt determined to swim to the nearest oil
platform, which was far, but closer than land.
He was freezing.
He was exhausted.
He reached the platform five hours later.
Cruise aboard the oil platform rendered aid.
The Coast Guard got him to a hospital where he was treated for hypothermia and more.
Wow.
That's crazy.
This is Jonah and the whale, but it's, what's his name?
That's a seal.
But is it?
Scott and the seal.
This is crazy.
Yes, Amy?
I don't know.
Or what you could do is if you're Scott and you just made this one by yourself,
you make the story up and you have the rights to sounds pretty cool.
God, man, now you got me thinking, is this even real?
Or was he hallucinating?
Oh, no.
Like I saw a mermaid.
Yeah, because at like a few hours at sea, you start seeing things.
Yeah, that salt water gets to you.
I'm going to take it that it was real and there was a seal.
the dang thing was like nudging them along.
That is crazy. That is crazy. That's what it's all about.
That was Tell Me Something Good.

What do when the astronaut is stressed out?
Give them some space.
Funny.
That was the morning corny.
What a reaction from Eddie.
I don't know.
Most of the time I have to think about it.
I'm like, I don't get it.
This one I liked.
All right.
It is time to open up the mailbag.
You send an email and we read it all the air.
It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag.
Hello, Bobby Bones.
My husband and I have been married for five years
and have decided to play a game one evening a week
to make sure we get some quality time together.
My husband's idea is to get a gaming console
and play video games together.
Neither of us have played video games.
I have no interest in them at all,
but he thinks it would be a good way
to spend quality time together,
at least as much as playing a board game or a card game.
I disagree because I think it's a hobby
only he will enjoy,
and it would be similar to watching a movie together.
You know, I also think that getting a gaming console
could lead to him playing more video games
and take away from other times we'd normally be spending together.
Is my husband correct in thinking
that playing video games together
can really be quality time.
By being too paranoid
and not wanting to introduce a gaming console
into our house, thinking it may become an issue later.
Sincerely, hobby hunting with hubby.
My advice is to get a gaming console
and give him unlimited time to play.
All right, that's the mailbag.
Is that right?
Close it up.
Sounds convenient.
Here's the situation.
There are games that you two can play together
that are awesome and so much fun.
Caitlin and I used to play this game.
Forget the name of it.
Rocket League.
That's it.
Where the cars,
Hit the ball into the goal.
Pretty easy to learn.
It's like soccer,
but you drive a car,
and you try to hit the ball,
and you try to angle on the goal.
And we played all the time.
We got super competitive at it.
She later lost interest in the video game.
I did not.
That was also my introduction to video games.
Who knows?
Video games may be a great hobby for him to relax, too.
If you get it,
there are games you can play together,
and it will be fun.
I think, though, if you're going to do this,
you need to designate,
All right, we're going to do video games this week.
All right, we're going to play a card game this week.
Don't go all video games all the time, but switch it up a little bit.
But if you get a console, he's going to play some video games.
I don't think he'll be an addict.
I wouldn't play video games if I wasn't playing with my friends, my absolute friends in a league in a league.
I have no interest in just playing to play.
I have like two games that play.
Madden football and NBA 2K basketball.
That's it.
And anytime I play, it's in a league with my friends.
I may play the computer, but it's in our league.
Eddie's in a basketball league with me.
Yeah.
The console will be fun for you guys, but he will play more too.
So I would recommend it because he wants it.
It'll just be easier.
Just put limitations on it.
Sign my wife.
But it's good.
It's good to do.
You'll find games that you like.
Amy, you have any advice on this with the husband?
I mean, I'm with you on what you're saying.
And I think that it could be something they do together.
But then, yes, go ahead and set the expectations at the front, though.
Yes
And
That way everyone's on the same page
Yeah
It's always
This is a great thing to do with
He's going to buy tokens
He's going to get in trouble
There's going to be some trouble here
But after you get through it
He's going to grow
It's going to make him better
Eddie
Man I wish I can get my wife
To play video games with me
I tried
And
I just feel like
She's going to struggle
With how much
She's going to play
But your wife didn't say
Let's play games together
Right
This scenario is a bit different
Well you're just going
I got a video game
come play with me. They're trying to discuss
games to play and he's like, why don't we get
a video game? Yeah. No, we did it. At the very
beginning, I think we did Monopoly. We got
Monopoly and we played it for about
one day and then she was over it. Board game
or video? It was a video game, Monopoly.
That's terrible, yeah. Maybe that's
why she doesn't want to play anymore, but it didn't work for us.
It just didn't work. So what do you say to her?
Just be
try it. Are you saying, don't get it? I say try it, but
just be prepared because he will
want to play more video games. He will,
but there's going to be the expectation of
much time, like set that boundary ahead of time.
Maybe he likes to play golf and this takes away from golf time and he's at home.
Yes.
At least doing something instead of gone.
But what my wife says is just because you're physically there doesn't mean that you're really here.
I am like, here come touch me.
I am here.
If you need me to do something, I'm right here.
Golf and video games, you don't get the same amount of time, right?
Like if you're like, oh, I was going to go play golf, so I'm not anymore.
So now I get to play five hours of video games?
Yeah, what's your argument?
No, because I don't have to do it like that.
but it's like maybe I'm going to go play golf and it said,
no, can I play video games 30 minutes at a time or 45 minutes at a time?
Okay.
It's just different.
If Caitlin's ever gone for a whole day, I play video games eight hours at a time.
Oh, for sure.
But that almost never happened, so I almost never do it.
Okay.
And I'm just saying, maybe sometimes the dogs,
hey, I forgot to feed the dogs.
That's my video, I guess.
And then she's like, did you feed the dogs?
Of course I did.
Slippery slow.
And after we feed them at night and I'm feeding them again, I'm like, guys, I'm so sorry.
I forgot to feed you this morning.
I'm so sorry.
Oh, you're telling the dog.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I'm like, I'm so sorry.
Anyway, there's our situation.
Get in the video game.
It'll be good for the relationship.
Oh, man.
Wink, wink.
All right, close it up.
We've got your email and we read it on the air.
Now it's about to close.
Bobby's Mel Pack.
Yeah.
Hope everybody's just killing it today.
We have an awesome Wednesday.
It's time for your big stories.
Let's go.
Bobby's Big.
Stories.
It took me a second to figure the scam out.
But once I figured it out,
Pretty smart. So a home in Jacksonville, Florida that has an estimated value of $2.3 million was listed on Zillow for $21,000.
So you go and you look, you're like, this is a huge house. Wow, only $21,000. The owners knew nothing about it. The listing stayed live for about a day, but they got thousands of views, hundreds of saves. But what it required was a deposit to schedule a time to go view the home.
so people would send them a little money through a deposit on Zell
and they get that deposit to go view
and they ran away with the money
because that's all they were trying to do.
There's another scam in Raleigh's same situation
but it's just like who's going to ask for a deposit to
I don't think I'd fall for that
but I don't know that I wouldn't if I love the house.
Please house market.
Have a deposit here, have a deposit there.
I just want to go look at it.
I think they'd probably would have got more though
if they'd have the house a little more expensive.
21K seems almost fake
For a 2.3 million.
Yeah.
If they'd have put it at like $180,000, I think people would have been, oh, wow, this could be legitimate.
Here's 500 bucks for the deposit.
But people were just sending them money.
Boom, boom, boom, boom.
That's crazy.
Yeah, so they made a little money.
They ran away.
I don't think they ever caught them.
Wow.
That's from jacksonville.com.
If you can only keep one streaming service, that's what they asked folks.
What would it be?
I thought about this, so I'm not just going right off the top here.
Weighing it all out, it would be Netflix.
It's not the sexiest anymore.
because Netflix is the old standard.
But it's, they just have pound for pound the best shows.
Sometimes a great show comes on HBO Max and it's killer,
but they have fewer shows that I spend time with.
I just go Netflix because it's just solid.
It's solid all the time.
So I'm going to go Netflix, Amy.
Well, HBO Max is a good one.
It's friends lives over there.
And, but I guess with that said,
I guess I got to go Hulu.
because you can watch Hulu Live.
We're not doing live TV.
Yeah, that's the streaming.
HBO Max.
Okay. Amy's like, I'm just going to do Hulu.
Because it has every channel.
Well, that doesn't count.
So what you said.
Streaming services, lunchbox.
Oh, it's easy.
Paramount Plus.
Really?
That's random.
Of all?
Out of all?
It's the only one you have.
Where do you watch it?
It has SpongeBob.
PBS.
It has the Challenge All-Stars, the real world reunions.
Like, they go back to, like, New Orleans.
They go back to San Francisco.
They bring the old cast.
back from back in the day and they do a little
like where they live in the house again. It's awesome.
So you would do that
because of those shows
more than any other streaming service. Yes. And they have a new
show coming out called, it is called
All Star Shore, where they're taking reality contestants from all
these shows and it's a party competition.
That is awesome. That's cool, man.
When do you think you'll age out at this kind of show?
Never. Never? That is my type of drama.
Does your wife like these shows too? Yes. I texted
it to her and she goes, that looks good.
That's what they bonded over.
Eddie, what about you? Number one.
This is easy, man.
It's going to do Disney Plus because without Disney Plus, my kids would go crazy.
So Disney Plus, hey, you guys want to watch a cartoon?
Here, two hours.
Dad time.
Low key, and I'm not just saying this because my show will be on it.
Peacock's really good because they have a ton of great movies, like old school, like 90s and 2,000 movies.
And they get some good shows, but they have a great catalog of back normal stuff.
And that's where Peacock really thrives.
Like a lot of that NBC stuff.
Oh, yeah.
From back in the day is still up there on Peacock.
Number one's Netflix, number two is HBO Max, number three is Hulu, Disney Plus at four, and Amazon at five.
Why Amazon is so strong, though, is you can buy stuff from some of the other streaming services.
Like rent.
Everything's on there.
Where was Paramount Plus?
Paramount Plus.
This says wire hanger for, that beats Paramount Plus, put the wire hanger on the TV for Antana.
No, Paramount Plus is at number 6 to 3%.
That's a good show.
It's so new.
there just aren't as many on there right now.
A swimmer survives an attack from one of the biggest great white sharks ever recorded.
Whoa.
A 62-year-old swimmer named Steve is swimming alone off the California coast when a shark attacked him,
leaving him with severe injuries.
Despite losing 25 pints of blood, doctors say they expect him to make a full recovery.
A forensic examination of the bite marks on the body showed that the Great White attacked him was around or slightly more than 20 feet long.
Dang.
20 feet long.
Oh.
I mean, I'm just picture a minute.
Yeah, you're six.
Three plus two.
So if I'm six one,
so one,
what?
You're not.
You've been growing.
Oh, yeah.
Just make it even six.
We were measuring something in my house the other day,
Eddie and I were,
and I was like,
I need to measure this out to six foot.
I didn't have tape measure.
And so I made Eddie lay down.
And then I marked a spot,
and then made them lay down again.
Yeah.
That's how the caveman did it.
And measured human bodies.
You're a six foot.
I said, okay,
about 15 foot here.
We got this.
A dude pulls a wheelchair scammed,
cut through the airline security weight.
Oh, my gosh.
A 28-year-old guy.
wanted to get through.
There's a long line, about two hours.
So he took off his shoe, took off his sock, grabbed a wheelchair, and then pretended
that he's hurt.
And went all the way through.
I mean, he breathed through security.
Got to the flight crew and they're like, hey, let's stretch it out.
But then they realized that he was lying about the whole thing.
And so they, like, hey, you can't do this anymore.
Yeah.
But the story is he got through.
I was going to say it was a good idea, but he got caught.
No, no, he got caught.
He got caught, but he still got through.
But he didn't get fined or anything.
He made it to his plane on time.
But they shame him?
Or he still didn't miss his flight.
Yeah, I guess so.
Exactly.
The lines long at TSA, just jump in a wheelchair.
They let them go to the front.
LAD Bible, Ladd Bible has that story.
Got a couple more here inside the big stories.
A woman tries to get through baggage claim with over 100 live animals.
So here you go, somebody else at the airport.
And they're trying to smuggle animals.
Two women were arrested after an x-ray inspection
revealed more than 100 live animals in their luggage.
Wildlife official said
109 animals were discovered in two
suitcases
two white porcupines
two armadillos
35 turtles 50 lizards and 20
snakes
Oh my gosh
Yeah it's not funny anymore
Is it lunch about? USA Today
If that bag comes open
Yeah you're done
Snakes on a plane
Well how do they live? They're going to die in the flight
The bags are big
And I guess they've done this before
Because this is such an operation
They spent so much
I would think they know what they're doing with this
Some may
Some may die.
Seems weird that a porcupine can be in with a turtle and I mean.
Armadillos.
Maybe they're in their own little box.
Yeah, and they're probably in their own little cases inside the suitcase.
Don't they just cram them all in there?
Be like, all right, guys.
Survival of the fish.
You're right.
I was thinking it was just zipped up with the animals.
It's a war in there.
Don't worry about it.
They're probably their own little baggy thing.
I didn't realize.
You just need to cram them in, zip it up.
I literally thought you put them in there like your clothes.
You just throw them in there and zip it up.
A 27-year-old woman is now her ex-boyfriend stepmother.
That is a great story.
I don't understand.
A 27-year-old woman, picture one, anyone, is now her ex-boyfriend's stepmother.
She married her ex-boyfriend's dad.
That's it.
Great stuff, man.
This is neat.
A 27-year-old woman who married her ex-boyfriend's father has revealed how the pair formed a close connection when she was in sixth grade.
Oh.
Despite a 24-year age gap.
And it went from that to romantic later in life.
But they're married now.
Sidney Dean, 27.
They should leave that.
Paul 51.
Sixth grade part out.
If you're the ex-boyfriend.
what do you do?
He was dating.
Yeah, she was dating.
No time what to do.
I've been there.
Oh,
oh God.
Oh, God.
Oh, God.
No, dude.
After Sydney broke up
with her then boyfriend,
they remained friends.
She began spending more time
with his family, mostly his dad.
Oh my gosh.
They started dating at 16.
But she was 16.
Oh!
This is not legal.
I guess it depends on what state.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know the rules.
But they didn't get wrong.
What state hasn't changed that long?
Well, they weren't romantic until
16. They were just friends before that.
I don't know.
And I don't like to... There used to be a site
called age of consent.com, but I don't go there
anymore because I don't want people to... I don't want even
like... What is it? Oh, yeah. Mike doesn't... We don't look at it because we don't
want... In our browser history,
people to be like, all right, let's see who's
been to age of consent.com today and go kick their door
open and arrest them. Amy's going to it right now. Amy,
they're from Ohio, so if you could check that out.
Age of Consent in Ohio.
16. It is.
So, listen, I don't know.
this is true.
So let me say it.
They're probably saying 16 because that's the first time that...
Or maybe they waited if she was thinking, I don't know.
Like, okay, I get it.
In the state of Ohio, you're giving 16-year-olds.
If they want a date at 18 or a 19-year-old,
okay, you have the power to make your own decision.
But like, an old man?
Well, he's probably 30.
I mean, if you do the math, he's probably like 30 is 40.
When you're 16, someone that's 30 or 40 is old man.
I agree.
But it's not a 70-year-old.
And it's creepy, yes.
Yeah, he was 40 when she was 16, I think.
It's still messed up.
I just, I'm 42.
I'm going to call 40-year-old old.
Like, I'm fighting for that instead of this.
Well, now I'm Googling state with lowest age of college.
Probably 16 is going to be the lowest.
Okay.
Hey, Google, where can I go?
Go ahead.
Okay.
That's probably 16.
I can't imagine anywhere in the state.
Yeah, no one's looking to be going any lower.
We should change that.
Ohio lawmakers, you're listening.
It's not Pennsylvania, Rhode Island.
Like, they're not the only ones.
It's just like, I think sometimes there's so.
many laws they forget to go back and that's what we should forget about yeah that's what we should
be thinking about right now so they're at 16 they're allowed to but they can't sleep with their
teacher though yeah that's weird that's because a teacher has a wait what the what state has an age
a consit please tell me this is old north carolina says 13 that cannot be right that can't be right
yes because the teacher has power over the student okay yes but but but you can be a student
18 and you can't do it either too. So it's not just the age thing.
Oh, it's the relationship. Yeah. Okay.
Amy keeps slapping our desk. Radio talk.
Because I don't know if this is Wikipedia, so it should be...
That's true. Yeah, yeah. Definitely accurate. Yeah, absolutely accurate.
But I'm seeing some other ages. I'm seeing like 14, 13.
But we don't know this is true.
Okay. Yeah. Representatives from each day, please call us.

On the phone, it's Carol in Massachusetts. Carol, good morning. What's going on?
Hi, how are you? Doing pretty good. What can I help you with?
So I was just calling because I was listening to Lunchbox. And I love Lunchbox when he's not.
being so negative.
So you love them like half-ness?
Well, yeah.
So, like, when he does his bit about Bonehead story and everything, he's so animated and he just
makes me laugh, which I think is great.
But he doesn't offer any positive, like he could help with Abby's singing or anything.
So my thought was, does he ever think?
like when you put salt in someone's coffee it doesn't make your life sweeter.
It's good.
It's interesting when she starts to lay it out.
You do have a beef with everybody about something.
What is this young lady's name?
Young lady.
Carol, go ahead.
Carol, Carol, yeah.
No, no, Carol, I tried to help Abby.
I tell her to take singing lessons.
For Christmas, I gave her a book, singing for dummies.
It's supposed to teach you things on to help your singing.
But she doesn't take that, she doesn't take that advice.
She gets mad. I can't believe you would tell me I need singing lessons. Okay, fine.
She actually didn't say that. We said that for her. We said it was an insulting gift.
Because you did it as an insult. No, no, no. That's what I'm saying. So, Carol, I tried to help these people out, but they don't listen to me.
I think honorary doctorates are crazy. Like, he did nothing to earn a doctorate. He didn't go to school. He never took one class at that university. He got a doctorate from it.
That's crazy for all the people that worked hard for it. Amy, there's millions of people out there like me that are struggling actors.
and she just gets a role for nothing.
Well, not for nothing.
But your goal in life is to win the lottery from nothing.
It's an investment.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But he does have a beef with everybody.
Like, what about Eddie?
What does he hated about Eddie?
Well, when I first started the show, he did not like me.
You were taking his mic time.
No, no, no, wasn't my mic time.
It was the way he would talk to me.
How did I talk to you?
He would say things.
I had to pull him aside.
You ain't got to talk to me that way.
Like, how would he talk to you?
He was like, I don't remember the exact,
what we were talking about it,
but I was in the hallway
and I said something and I said something and go,
yeah, right,
and I'm not doing that for you and I was like,
okay, like, we're not going to have that?
Like, his job was video guy
and he was supposed to video something
and he was like, I'll do it for Bobby,
but not you.
And I was like,
there's no way that happened.
It happened.
No way.
He has stories that I think
maybe a little bit of it happened,
but he kind of recreates.
And he still has this issue about filming stuff for work.
Like he's like, I'm not going to film.
Exactly.
Am I right, Amy?
No, I haven't dealt with it.
I think Morgan has said something similar.
Yeah, it's not me.
I'm saying, I think Eddie, it's been a similar thing.
Some people.
This turns into an Eddie.
No, no, I...
Thank you.
I just think lunchbox maybe has probably added a little flare to the story over the years.
He has a lot of flirt with a lot of me.
Eddie, did I pull you aside and say you know how to talk to me that way?
He sat me down.
He said, he will not talk to me like that.
That's right.
And I was like, you know, I was just joking.
Well, I didn't catch that.
And he said, don't do that.
Oh, yeah.
That was the last time.
The point is, if anybody has anything and he doesn't have it,
lunchbox is going to find a way to hate on it.
Wrong.
I try to help people in life.
That's her point.
You don't try to help people.
What was your help to me?
Go to school.
Get a doctorate.
What about you?
Go to school, finish your degree.
I don't want it.
Okay.
I got a job.
I got a career.
Yeah, why not just be like, hey, that's great.
They're honoring you because they're honoring you with your achievements.
You didn't achieve anything.
What are you talking about?
It's an achievement-based.
thing. They're like, look at your career, what you've been able to do, and look at what you've
given back to the state. We want to recognize you as an honor. Oh, boy, as an honor. Like, you didn't,
I mean, if they want to give you a key to the city, okay, that's fine. That's, that doesn't take away.
I'm talking about you're getting up in front of people that are actually working hard to get a degree.
To go, hey, if you guys put an effort, you can accomplish great things too outside of college.
Okay. All right. I'm just saying. I don't think it's, I think honorary doctors are hilarious. They're
But you would accept one.
You would take one? I'll take.
Exactly.
Hey, Carol, you bring up a great point.
I don't know what needs to be done with him.
Nothing.
I mean, nothing needs to be done, but I'm saying for him to change his outlook.
I think he, you know, old dog, new tricks, ain't going to happen here.
Carol, I think I'm a pretty positive person.
Oh, well, in some ways you, I know.
I'll take that back.
In some ways you are.
But we were reading Bobby's books, my eight-year-old grandson.
and he actually said to me, which is why I called, because I wouldn't have called, but he said,
I wonder if lunchbox did this in school.
Was it like the first book when he dumped the candy on Amy's head?
Is that the story you're talking about when Amy first started and he hated her?
No, when I was reading your book with my grandson yesterday.
Oh, Stanley first year's school.
Oh, the dog.
Oh, kids' books.
Yes, the bully.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The kids.
And we listened.
the show all the time and my grandson is here.
And I was like, oh, that's not a good message if he thinks that he's mean.
And I was like, oh, no, I said lunchbox just plays a part on the radio.
He's really a really nice guy.
He has kids.
And then I was like, this isn't good because I know that lunchbox has a good heart.
So I just thought that it would maybe a good time to call and say, like, just be positive
about other people and then just try to maybe
do what you want to do in your life
based on what you're not liking
that other people are getting accomplishment for.
Change your role.
Don't be that role in the show anymore.
Be a lover.
When I do something cool, be like,
that's cool, man.
I did something like,
when you made the hall of fame,
I said congratulations.
I went to the ceremony.
I supported you because you earned that.
No, I believe you got a free ticket
and we paid for you to go to Chicago.
I did.
Yeah, I think that's why you went.
I probably went to pay my own way.
Carol, thank you. You bring up a wonderful point, and I'm glad you shared it with us.
She's so young to be a grandma, too.
I probably just sound young, but thank you.
What are you doing later?
All right, Carol, have a great day. Tell your grandson, I say hello, and thanks for reading the Stanley book.
And it is what it is with lunchbox.
He is a good guy, but he does get very jealous of people and thinks that anybody has something he should have it.
Right?
Yeah. If I don't get something,
then why should anybody else have it?
That's the point.
Go ahead.
Thank you, lunchbox.
Like when Scoobin wins $500 in lottery, it's a little frustrating.
That was awesome.
Because I spent more money than he did.
When Scoob won $500 and it came in.
And the most you've ever won in all your years is...
$250.
Yeah. Scoot doubled you up.
I think that's awesome.
All right, thank you. Carol.
Thank you everybody for listening.
Lobby Bone Show.
Boney up the day.
This story comes to us from Vermont.
A 24-year-old man was wanted for burglary.
They go to his house to arrest him
is they're about to put the cuffs on them?
Here comes his dad in an excavator,
and he takes the bucket of the excavators
and starts swinging it at the cops.
Oh, gosh.
Oh.
Family, hashtag family.
I mean, what do they say?
The apple don't fall far from the tree.
There you go.
Yeah, they say a lot of things.
That's one of them.
Yeah.
Wow.
The video is unbelievable.
That's a hardcore weapon.
I mean, an excavator, man, just swinging that thing.
Just go to jail together.
Yeah, and what do they do?
Because a gun doesn't beat an excavator if it's all equal.
You can see.
see him diving out of the way and the guy is still laying on the ground and they're diving
out of the way of the excavator and he finally stops and then here comes the mom and tries to pull
the cops off her son. Mom too. Yes. The mom shows up on a ride and mower. That's crazy. So what
happens to all of them? So the son and dad were arrested and the mom was issued a citation. Do you know
what's craziest about this? It's daytime. Yeah. In the video it's daytime. Blue sky, I expected
it to be like two in the morning. Everybody drunk or something. That's, yeah. I mean, it is crazy. And the
said we did not get that training in the academy.
I mean, the guy's pretty good with an excavator.
You know how they did that movie, Catch Me If You Can, and the guy was like stealing money.
Leonardo.
They used him later to actually stop criminals.
Like, this guy could teach some excavator classes.
Like, he's pretty good at this thing.
All right, is that at Lunchbox?
Yeah, I'm Lunchbox. That's your Bonehead Story of the Day.
It's not new, but there's a documentary on Netflix called My Octopus Teacher.
I watched it a year and a half or so ago.
Lunchbox has seen it.
because I was talking about it.
Yeah.
And you thought I was an idiot because I was like, it's a good documentary about octopus.
I thought it was going to be so stupid.
I was like, how weird?
And it was so good.
And I won't eat octopus anymore after it.
Will you eat octopus?
I haven't had octopus in two years.
Two years.
Before that, he was Mr. Octopus.
What?
Everybody knew he was looking for the best octopus in town, you know?
Interesting.
So it's a little weird, but it's really good.
Eddie finally watched it.
I did.
Because of us?
I did because you guys kept talking about.
I mean, you've been talking about it for about a year.
Okay.
Not regularly.
It comes up.
When we talk about octopuses, it's like every two days.
Right, exactly.
But, dude, it's actually really, really good.
It was one of those where, like, I can't believe, like lunchbox.
I can't believe I'm watching this whole thing.
And I loved it.
But you got to, you got to feel like this dude's weird, right?
Oh, there's some weird elements to it where, again, I thought many times he was going to start making out or making love to the octopus.
Totally.
Yeah.
And so that, and then I'm like, this guy's going to see this octopus every day for a whole year.
I can't go to my kid.
I can't drop off my kid at school every day.
And like something always comes up.
Like how do he make the time to do it every single day?
Well, in they interview his wife and she's like, he just loves it.
And I'm like, he should feel that way about you.
He's not even seeing you as much as seeing the octopus.
That's funny because my son actually, we were watching it together.
And he goes, where's his wife in this?
Is she cool with this whole visit?
She's in it, right?
Doesn't she make an appearance or to it?
He talks about her, but she never shows up.
Okay.
Yeah.
Are we sure he has a wife then?
I don't know, man.
I knew she was addressed at some point.
But yeah, he goes every single day.
Anything else pop out to you?
I mean, I really just think that octopus are probably the,
the coolest things ever. What about the octopus
the guy who just thought it was a girl? How
does he know it's a girl? I think he just wanted
to be a girl so he makes me love to the octopus. Exactly.
I think he was in love with the octopus. He did
say that. He's like, I was in love with her.
Who? I don't know. Is that true? He said I was in love with her.
I don't know about in love. Maybe he just love.
I think he used the words in love. But that's why
he was right on the edge at all times, Amy, of me
going. And they were playing like slow music.
And I'm like, he's going to do it.
Oh, no.
Well, now I feel like I'm going to have to watch it.
You should.
You can.
Sure.
I have not been sold until this moment.
Because he makes love to an octopus.
That's what it is for Amy.
I was like, you know, I don't really want to do it.
And I'm like, well, he gets down and dirty with the octopus, maybe.
Well.
No, because now all three of y'all have seen it, and I'm feeling left out.
I don't think you're going to come away from it going, wow, I'm so fulfilled by that.
But it's interesting.
And then octopuses, octopies, octopies.
Octopuses.
It is, you can save those.
Risky.
T-h-h-h-h-h.
But pusseses is first.
Okay, me.
Yeah, I think you'll come away going, oh, they're as smart as we are.
They just live in a different part of the world.
Yeah.
Crazy.
Good.
Eddie, rate it.
Oh, gosh, I mean, for a documentary about...
No, no, just rate it.
A rate it?
Not for a, just rate it.
I will go four and a half.
Oh, wow.
That's high.
The blind sharks.
Got it.
I have a question.
How did you always know where to find the octopus?
Same place.
They don't.
They don't.
I knew how to find Caitlin.
I DM her.
He just DM her and be like, hey.
They don't, because I figured they have a whole ocean to swim in.
You have to watch it.
We got to go.
And now for a bit of breaking news between your breaking news, with me, the Gecko Gecko.
Here are some things you ought to know today.
People who switch their car insurance to Geico save about $900 a year.
Experts are calling that nice to know.
Also, plants can hear when bees buzz.
My ficers just heard that.
And finally, animal experts have confirmed that goats have regional accents.
I'm getting a hint of Irish there.
It feels good to get good news.
It feels good to Geico.
The Disneyland Resort is everything.
