Welcome to Wednesday show, Morning Studio. Morning. During this show, Eddie and Abby go skydiving. Cool.
Starting point is 00:02:08 They're driving like an hour north, so they have to leave during the next hour of the show, and they're going to drive for an hour. They're going to be back. It's going to be live. We're going to be... I don't think the phone's going to be able to go down with you. Yeah, I can't have it while I'm jumping.
Starting point is 00:02:21 But can you have it in the plane? Are we talked to him before he goes up or what? Talk to him before he goes up, and then we'll keep on as long as the service goes. Even when you go on the plane? Yeah, that's the plan, yeah. Okay. That's cool.
Starting point is 00:02:30 And then we'll talk to him. As soon as he lands, we'll talk to him. Okay, that's today. You nervous? Or you're not there yet? No, I'm nervous. I woke up nervous. Okay, because it's getting close. It's getting today. It's today, yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, let's go around the room here.
Starting point is 00:02:42 His choice for our Bobby Bone Show movie club was Rope. And when it comes down, picking out a good movie for us to watch, yeah, we basically lost all hope. Here he is, Eddie. I've been listening to a certain song on repeat, and I've never thought I'd be listening to this song like this. It's Chris Stapleton's new version of the Star Spangled Banner that he did at the Super Bowl. He released it. So it's on streaming services. Dude, I listen to it over and over.
Starting point is 00:03:06 My family's like, what are you doing? It's really good. I mean, I remember I'm playing it, but I guess I just remember going. Go back. That's Chris Daibleton right there. I've listened to it probably over 100 times, and I still get chills every single time. Should we just play it at the end of this segment? Please.
Starting point is 00:03:17 And its entirety. That way, I don't want to play and stop it so we can do that. Yeah. Then I start. It's emotional. It really is. Like, there's a part where there's the high part, right? But we're going to hear it.
Starting point is 00:03:26 And then every you, but listen, when you listen to it, the crowd goes nuts because they start feeling. they're like, whoa, this feels good. Well, you release it as a song? Like, you can release that, like on an album? He didn't put it as an album, so just released it as a single, like as a single song. You can make money off of that? Yeah. So what are you going to do?
Starting point is 00:03:44 You should sing and get able to stream it. Yeah. I had no idea. This next guy told us he was in his first commercial on TV. Turns out it was on the Instagram and he did it for free. Here he has lunchbox. Guys, I have a new defense against getting sick. I'm going to start microdozing.
Starting point is 00:04:00 Well, no, no, no, it's not called dozing, first of all. Microdosing is the term. Dosing. I'm going to do microdosing. Oh, what are you going to microd? Emergency. Oh, no, not emergency. That's not microdosing.
Starting point is 00:04:12 Like whatever the mushroom beans. No, no, people have been doing it like with mushrooms and acid and hallucinogens type of things. Yeah, for like PTSD, a lot of health benefits. Right, and they say it's amazing. They microdose and they. LSD. They do, it does wonder. So I'm going to start doing it to myself.
Starting point is 00:04:29 But with. Emergency. Because it's supposed to... How do you microdose an emergency? Just take a little? Yeah, take a little. Just put a little in the water. And you don't do it every day.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Microdosing is not every day. Some, it's like four days a week. You have like a schedule. Like one week it's three days. But I don't think this is what microdosing is. Are you drinking the whole packet? That's less than taking a vitamin a day. I mean, it's like not...
Starting point is 00:04:49 No, I'm going to microdose. Just a little under your tongue? Yeah, a little under my tongue. I don't think you know what that means. Or really what that... But I like it. You're just taking a micro dose, basically. You're not really what they call microdosing, but you're just taking yourself on microdose a day.
Starting point is 00:05:04 Yeah, but I suppose that's going to help me to not get sick. I say he's going to microdose all day, all day. Yeah, microdose. All right, good. According to AI, she has the most symmetrical face on the show. I don't think some of the other results were as accurate, though. By the way, that was written by Abby. Oh, yeah, thank.
Starting point is 00:05:19 I know. I think that's what she's talking about. That was a hard segment. That was a hard segment. The worst. And I couldn't believe Scuba put it up on the internet, too. Oh, God. Like, he did it.
Starting point is 00:05:28 Scoba, Steve suggests, and he put it on the internet, too. He approved it. That's a tough one. Okay, here she is Amy. I really feel like the driver's test, like the actual one where the 16-year-old gets in the driver's seat with an instructor for the final test so that they can go get their license is sort of a joke. Nowadays? Or at least where we went, because my daughter has been 16 since April, but she hasn't gone to take her final test until, well, she finally did it. And she was gone for less than five minutes.
Starting point is 00:05:58 her driving test was less than five minutes the part of driving yeah i don't even know i don't know if they just drove down the corner and he's like make him do this do that and then turn around and came back and she passed which is great but i know that she needs more practice she can technically go to the dmv now and get her actual license but we're going to require a little more driving so that test isn't enough for you because it was like i was shocked i didn't even go get on the highway? Like don't you have to know how to get on the highway? My driving test we did not get on the highway. Driver Zed. We got
Starting point is 00:06:32 on the highway. Well then maybe. The driver test we didn't. Listen, I thought they were going to leave you on 15 minutes. Can you imagine being a driving instructor what's crazy 16 year olds all day? Stressful. That's all you do. Get in the car with them and okay, let's see if you can do this. Yeah, but I could see where you'd think it'd be too easy. Yeah. Well, and honestly, she came back and she
Starting point is 00:06:49 parked and she parked like not on like, she parked on the line instead of like in between the lines. And then the guy was Like, you know what? These are pretty faded. You're good. It's like, monkey. Everybody. You get a license. You get a license. All right, Amy, thank you. From Mountain Pine, Arkansas, his Bronco constantly needs work, but it looks cool, so that's a perk.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Bobby Bones. Thank you. So here's what we're going through at my house. We have a yard. And but the yard was mostly fenced in where Eller are half husky, half hound couldn't get out. She loves to run. She loves the perimeter search. If she can make a break for it, she will. Just to chase animals, but we just lose her.
Starting point is 00:07:25 She's found little gaps in between gates that she can escape. So what we've done now is we've bought this. We haven't put it on them yet. We bought this system that is a electric fence with GPS. And you can, like, do your yard and GPS. And if they cross that, apparently, it says no shock. But how else? What's it going to do reasonably talk to them?
Starting point is 00:07:46 Hey, don't, don't call for you. L, you know better than it. No, but it says it gives them like a pulse. That's a shock. Yeah. I don't worry about Stanley. What I worry about Stanley is him falling into the pool. pool and drowning because this fat bulldog.
Starting point is 00:07:58 Eller will just run away. So we have them. We haven't set it up yet, but this is what we're going to do over the next couple days of my house has set up this electric fence that they say is no shock. Apparently it just makes a noise and reminds them. I'm going to tell you, I make a lot of noise to remind her stuff and it doesn't work.
Starting point is 00:08:14 It's only a noise we can't really hear. Oh, like dog noises. I'm going to put it on me and walk through and see shocks what I'm talking about. It has to shock. But anyway, that's what posted because I might need one of these. For us? Or for your kids.
Starting point is 00:08:28 No, for my dog. She gets out and it's annoying. We're going to live with this. I will update you soon on it. And we've also done something really crazy. We basically built a sky bridge for our dogs to get to the dog. It's so dumb. Dogs, man. You guys don't understand.
Starting point is 00:08:43 You just have kids. But dogs, man. We don't know. Okay. So that's that. Big show today. Eddie go skydiving. Abby go skydiving. Lunchbox is JFK report. We reviewed the movie that Lunchbox made us watch the stuff.
Starting point is 00:08:55 Oh, man. What a movie. What a movie. Time for the mailbag. You send an email and we read it all the air. It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Hello, Bobby Bones. One of my coworkers is really awkward, and I felt a little bad that everyone in her office
Starting point is 00:09:15 is either mean to her or ignores her. She actually pretty nice, so I asked if she wanted to have lunch with me one day, and we now eat together a time or two a week. We even got drinks after work last week as I'm getting to know where I'm realizing that I'm her only friend. I think she's an interesting person but totally different from my other friends. I like trying to set her up with some other people as friends, but I don't know how to play matchmaker for awkward but interesting people. Any advice on how I can help this girl out? Signed, friendly matchmaker.
Starting point is 00:09:43 This is very easy. You just go with her. That's how you introduce her to other people. Because, yeah, some people are in acquired taste, but then they're awesome. So we say, hey, I think this person and you would be friends. Then you go. All three of you go. You make it happen.
Starting point is 00:10:01 You go. So you're the person that kind of keeps it from being so awkward. They get to know each other. Maybe they hang out as friends after that. Yeah. That's the easy answer there. So you can set her up, but you need to go on those as well, basically as it's a triangle. It's not a third wheel.
Starting point is 00:10:16 It's a triangle. You triangle, friend date it. And then eventually you can break off that triangle. That's how you do it. A little more effort. Good for you, too. too for caring about somebody else in this way. I like that.
Starting point is 00:10:26 That's what I'm talking about. Good for you. Because sometimes the weirdest people are actually the best. It's just they... It sounds like you're speaking from experience. Well, I just feel like I'm so happy with my friend because I know I'm weird sometimes. And it's a different situation.
Starting point is 00:10:42 So good for you. I like to you set this email. You get to put a little extra work in, but you can set her up and you go with her and be like, hey, we're going to all go. That's it. At the end. A plus, anything you want to say, Amy?
Starting point is 00:10:53 No, I mean, I like that. I love her caring heart. This is going to be a game changer for her. Yes. Expand her network. Expand your network. Yes. I don't know what you said, but yeah, I like that.
Starting point is 00:11:04 Sounds good. All right, there you go. Close it up. We've got your email and we read it on the air. Now it's about to close Bobby's mailbag. Yeah. The bit we don't know is coming and we're forced to do is called scuba Steve suggests. Or it's short.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Three S is. Screw Steve, our executive producer. What are you talking about today? So I saw a story about a record number of Americans living alone. 29% of U.S. people are by themselves at the house. And right now, my wife is in San Francisco with the kids and I'm home alone. But that's not you in that 29%. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:11:38 Those people who live alone, like, permanently. Me and before the last couple years, always by myself. Yeah. It was awesome. For a long time. It's even awesome. It's awesmer now, but I like living by myself. I wasn't very sad.
Starting point is 00:11:49 I was fine with it. Then I got married and I got acclimated to that lifestyle. them being gone a few days, I'm cool. I can watch movies. I can do fun things. But after a while, man, I'm so lonely. I'm so bored. And I just nothing for me to do.
Starting point is 00:12:00 And now I'm over it. Were you looking forward to a lone time? And then once you got a lot of it, you're like, actually, I don't like it as much as I thought I would. Yeah, that grass is greener effect where you're like, man, I don't know, I can't do it. Eddie's same way. He's got a house full of people. And he's like, when they're gone.
Starting point is 00:12:12 I start to miss them. Yeah, it's terrible, man. I drink a lot. My house is messy. I would be a mess if I didn't have a family. Oh, you're saying you do this when they're gone. Yeah, I was like, what's different? I'm a pretty clean life.
Starting point is 00:12:25 I'm pretty clean life. So, okay, so people are living alone. So what's the deal here? So my whole thing is to kind of kill two birds of one stone, me not being alone, but also me kind of developing a better relationship with everyone here in the show. I wanted to go out with people individually over the next week, week and a half, to get to know you guys better, but also if we need to be alone. That's interesting.
Starting point is 00:12:42 Go out with us? So now it's ready to segment. One-on-one? For him to hang out with us. Go out. I like it. I like it. Week and a half, huh?
Starting point is 00:12:52 Yeah. What if we just do this? What if it's, we're just cramming a lot in? Yeah. So what if, yes, let's do this over the next week and a half. But let's make sure you go with everybody over the next month. Okay. We'll make a point of it.
Starting point is 00:13:06 And so everyone individually get with Scoobo Steve and you have to go have a one-on-one date with Scoobie. Gotcha. Hey, lunch at the Voo. Well, so I can take your suggestion. I also have a list as well. I kind of came with some ideas if you want those of what I thought. Go ahead.
Starting point is 00:13:21 So I think the first and most important is Bobby Bones and Amy you guys are kind of the king and queen of the show. So I feel like you guys are kind of like dinner people. So I figured we go out to a dinner. You just want a nice dinner. Got it? Nice dinner.
Starting point is 00:13:32 You want a nice dinner. Go ahead. Yes. And then the next one, lunchbox, I feel like we should go to Chuckie Cheese. You have three kids, two adults. I'm your third adult. We can have a lot of fun.
Starting point is 00:13:42 I can watch one kid. And also I'm missing my family. So I'm a little bit sad. Yeah, you should do that now. So I want to borrow your kids. Yeah. Okay, go ahead. Eddie and Mike D.
Starting point is 00:13:51 I figured you guys like movies and old cinema. So you're not going one-on-ones, though. You're also doing... I'm so confused. Yeah. I mean, one-on-ones would be great, but I feel like some of these people have similar interests,
Starting point is 00:14:00 so let's kind of like knock it out and kind of make it a little quick. Okay. I'm running short on time. My family's coming back. Once they come back, I don't have the time to do this. So got it.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Two weeks. Being selfish. Got it. Yeah. Okay. You watch your old movie with Mike? So old movie with Mike and Eddie, I found something showing here at an old theater,
Starting point is 00:14:15 the old 1920s theater. It's called Ziggy Sardust. Yeah, that's David Bowie. Yeah, yeah. I'm in. Okay, cool. All right, so we said this place called the Belichord.
Starting point is 00:14:22 I think Mike likes that. There you go, boom, two right there, done. And then the next one, they got larger group. Ray and Morgan liked this spot. That's like a hidden gym. I won't say what it's called, but it's like near a river.
Starting point is 00:14:31 You guys talk about it all the time. They drink there. They drink. They're like the food, the plastic cup drinkers. Yeah. So I figure I get them together along with Abby, Kevin, Pitts, and Lauren.
Starting point is 00:14:40 You just want to hang out with all of them. Well, they're kind of groups together. It sounds like you just want to do fun things and you want us to pay for it. I mean, yeah. It's pretty good. I mean, it's a good idea. Or do you want to go with the isolated one-on-one? I think we should isolate one-on-one with everybody.
Starting point is 00:14:52 That'd be cool. Yeah, so I was so confused. How many people is that? But he has all the free time in the world. He's got a month, too. But he said once his family's back, he's not going to have time. So you're saying he has a month, but in his mind, he has two weeks. Yeah, he figured out.
Starting point is 00:15:06 It's his bit. He passed it out. Yeah, he came into it to it. I suggested it. All right. Over a month, we're going to, so it's July 12th. So let's say by August, August 15th, you had to go on a date with every single one of us. Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Amy looks really excited out of everyone. It doesn't be a date. You don't have to like you naked. But I already know where we're going. Amy, don't worry. It can be anything. It can be anything one-on-one, but it's got to be at least a half an hour. Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:28 All right. And whatever happens happens. You know, what happens with scuba? Okay. You put it like that. You know what I mean? All right. I like it.
Starting point is 00:15:36 Good bit. Okay, thank you. Update us as you do it. Okay, yeah. It's time for the good news. Oh, it's Bobby. Tell me something good. There's an 11-year-old kid named Shaden.
Starting point is 00:15:48 I want to play you a video. He's knocking on neighbors' doors, just going, hey, does anybody live with this around my age? Like, I need friends. Here's a clip. I just wanted to see if you knew any kids around like 11 and 12 maybe because I need some friends. Like, really bad. So people are like, well, we don't have a kid at your age. But there are some other kids down the road that at this age.
Starting point is 00:16:09 and he's like, well, if I'm being honest, those are the ones that beat me up. So I'm looking for other friends. So this one woman who went to the door was like, hey, let me help you out because the kid was struggling financially it looked like. And maybe that's why he was picked on. And so they raised a bunch of money
Starting point is 00:16:26 from some school clothes, just some random life things. Which I'm sure would do a lot for his confidence. Yeah. And they were trying to just raise like $7,000, but they raised $37,000 for this kid. Oh, wow. What's he going to buy now? Honey.
Starting point is 00:16:38 It's closing a Hyundai? What's happening here? So, but yeah, it's awesome. It's just a bunch of people coming together, seeing something that they could help. And also this Shaden kid, just knocking on doors going, hey, anybody in there that wants to be my friend? That's brave. Yeah. It's just brave to go cold call.
Starting point is 00:16:52 I won't do that now. Even if I know the person, I don't want knocking on door. All right, there you go. That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good. Is there an issue? Do you have it? No, he told me tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:17:05 No, we sat on the air yesterday today. today. So Lunchbox's JFK report is due today. Scoba, what do you want to say? Mike C's seeing me on the email. I'm looking at it right here. Yeah, that said, hey, be ready for tomorrow. Come here. Come here. I'm looking at my email. See if I got an email. I have the email. Okay, then come to my email and find it. You could have deleted it. Look at it. You can look at it deleted. That's true.
Starting point is 00:17:28 But then you look at it's deleted deleted. Yeah, you can trash your. Go ahead. So what time? What time did he send it? I'm looking at the email. 102 p.m. They're just right there. You didn't even click on it. Also, you use the email version of the email, which is terrible. Got it. It's in there. You see the email that says your JFK assassination reports to do?
Starting point is 00:17:48 He says, do tomorrow. He's speechless. Wow. He's not talking. He can't say anything. Lunchbox, what's going on over there? Well, there it is. Did you just not scroll down?
Starting point is 00:18:03 No, I mean, he usually emails at like, 7 o'clock at night. And so he got one o'clock in the day. It got lost. Usually that's if it's like later than the time. How many emails do you get? No, but a lot of junk comes in to this email. Like those pills.
Starting point is 00:18:19 Mike, I got one. Introducing country music's newest badass. No, we're not talking about that. I know. We're talking about the fact that you. So it's, it's well a punishment. No. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:30 Yes. Sorry, dude. You got to. So, okay, here's the deal I'm going to make. Mike, you've got it reminding. No, no, no, no, he did. He sent it to you at one. He doesn't have to hit you at a certain time in the email.
Starting point is 00:18:40 Oh, gosh. So here's what we're going to do. This is the final. He will do the report tomorrow, but if it doesn't get an A, he then gets on the will of punishment. A lot of chances. Can this be his final reminder? Do I have to email him?
Starting point is 00:18:53 No. I'm not emailing him. He can't blame that anymore. I'm looking at the email. I mean, because you have to understand. I had the stuff to do. We all did. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:19:03 That's double. I mean, that's double the homework. You've had this for a month. Man, I've been busy. We've known that. Yeah. For a week. He will do it tomorrow last time, but if he doesn't get a collective A, he gets on the
Starting point is 00:19:13 Wheel of Punishment. Wow. You guys could give him an F if you want it before it even starts. Yeah, I'm thinking about that. But you have no idea how good it's going to be. Boom. We do. We have an idea.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Dang, man. I literally did not see that email, man. Like even Scova said. But we talked about it on the air yesterday, too. Yeah, I know. I know. I'll pivot from that. We'll do a quick segment here.
Starting point is 00:19:34 But just know that's going to happen tomorrow. Do you want to talk about JFK? Give me a little cheat sheet, little cliff notes. What are you talking about? Sure. Jamie Fountain Kennedy was our third president. He's known for a lot of things. First president to climb Mount Everest.
Starting point is 00:19:49 If you want to write this down. Because there's ever only been two presidents climbing on Everest. You already messed up one thing. I know he's not the third president. Oh, I'll probably mess up. Yeah. Because that was Adams. No, it wasn't.
Starting point is 00:20:01 Oh. Jefferson. John Adams is number two. Why I thought there was another Adams? Kennedy was three. Oh, well, then maybe I was wrong. Yeah, you were wrong. Other things about Kennedy,
Starting point is 00:20:12 Eddie, want to help him up with anything? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He was... The third nipple. He was the first present with three nipples. He won two triathlons. Did you win them both? I think he won both of them, yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:22 Amy? Triathlete. It's tragic. He died skydiving. That was terrible. Amy, that's not... You know what's happening? Yeah, Amy, what?
Starting point is 00:20:30 Yeah, Amy, you know that I know that he was assassinating. Oh, that's true too. What was he skydiving when he was assassinated? Did they assassinate him by not putting a parachute in his? No, because you guys said some guy named Wilkes Booth shot him. That's right. Yep. Hey, what else?
Starting point is 00:20:51 John Wilkes Booth, for sure. And then there's something. But the whole controversy is did Wilkes Booth do it? Mm-hmm. So I don't know. I don't know anything else about him. And what theater? Just know that the theater.
Starting point is 00:21:02 I know that one of his relatives is still in politics and is running. and is running for president. That's true. Nephew, I believe. Really? R.F. Robert Kennedy Jr. I don't know. I mean, it has to be like nephew 12th removed.
Starting point is 00:21:18 I don't think it is, actually. But, okay, so you have that tomorrow, okay? Yeah, I'll write it down. If he's the third president, it is very distant. It's a very distant relative. Really old nephew, too. And if it's not an A, by the panel, he has to be on the wheel of punishment.
Starting point is 00:21:34 Have the will ready tomorrow, just in case when he fails, we'll go right to it, okay? Man, this does take me back to school, though. Like, I'd be like, oh, man, can I get some extra credit? And then I wouldn't get it done. And then I'd be like, hey, can you give me a little bit more time on that extra credit? And then, oh, man. It's like nightmares.
Starting point is 00:21:51 You want to wait until Friday? I'm going to have an extra day? No. Why? Why would you get an extra? It doesn't matter. He's never going to do it good. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:21:58 That's true. What do you? I mean I'm not going to do it good. You got to get AIDS. I've gotten A's in high school? No, no, from us, though. And you got A's in high school? Like a couple classes.
Starting point is 00:22:05 First we've heard of it. Okay, we're going to play this. Lunchbox did not do as a report, but we'll give him a chance before the end of the week. A win is a win.

Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As part of the Bobby Bones Cinema Club, we had to watch a movie called The Stuff. Lunchbox had put it in the hat. We drew it randomly.
Starting point is 00:25:23 We watched it was hour, 27 minutes. And the whole premise of this movie is that there's a yogurt and it kills people. It takes over people's brains. It takes over their bodies, man. Yeah. So everybody wrote a three-line review. I'm just going to go through some of the reviews here. Let's do it.
Starting point is 00:25:39 Okay, review number one. The Stuff should have won an Oscar. Was it cheesy? The answer is yes, but you found yourself cheering for the good guys. You immediately ran to your fridge to throw out all your yogurt. Add that to my must-watch list again. That had to be used. Okay, he's such a bad actor. Okay, okay. That was the first one up. Okay. This is exactly something I would imagine lunchwalk's liking and watching over and over. He has some bizarre movie interest. This movie is so dumb and very weird. I can't believe I watch the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:26:08 Rude. Here's the next one. I thought the commentary on consumerism was interesting, and I was actually a fan of the practical effects, even though they looked very 80s. But the story fell apart quickly. The production was terrible, and Mo is one of the most unorthodox characters ever. I did find the movie out of cult following,
Starting point is 00:26:22 so I didn't think lunchbox was intentionally trying to pick a bad movie. Scova seed. Yeah, that's for sure, Scova. Is that you, Scova? No, that sounds like Mike. That sounds like Mike. Got it. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:33 It definitely was a metaphor for a lot of, I mean... Yeah. But as a kid, I had no idea that was all involved. It was a little better than rope. Special effects were horrible. I never want to see ice cream, shaving cream, or toothpaste. Again, I give it a 1.5. They'd call me Moe because I always ask for Moe money out of five.
Starting point is 00:26:52 I will say that I paid three bucks for it. I watched it, and I was so happy it was only an hour and 20 minutes. Because I broke it up into two parts. It was much easier to do that. One of the parts was the toilet. Like, that was what broke the time? No, I just watched it my laptop on the toilet. I'm going to be there anyway.
Starting point is 00:27:10 I have to admit, I laugh multiple times watching this movie. The storyline is crap. The acting is terrible except for chocolate chip Charlie. This goes down as one of the worst, cheesiest 80 movies I've ever seen. Generally, not really a beloved movie by the group here. Here's one. Three lines. W-T-F.
Starting point is 00:27:27 Those little lines. That's a review. Yeah, that was mine. That's cool. Oh, yeah. So let's talk about it for a second. It's called The Stuff. I actually made notes as I was watching the movie.
Starting point is 00:27:37 Here are my notes from watching this movie from the 80s Called the Stuff This movie was actually made in 1985 And the cover is a guy whose face is being stretched And yogurt is coming out of his mouth Now it starts with this old guy Looking at the ground And he goes well that that there is moving
Starting point is 00:27:55 He puts his finger in the ground And licks it and goes Hey Michael, come here Taste this That's how it starts That's how it starts And they're just eating the stuff from the ground. They're like, it tastes so good.
Starting point is 00:28:12 And that's what happens. It's basically like an alien from underground that gets spread all out of the country, put into yogurt. Once you eat the yogurt, you get taken over by it. And then that's what's up. The dog that got, that was mean because he ate the stuff. And Moe was like, hey, dog, why is your master afraid of you? And I'm like, it's a freaking huge Doberman. Even if he wouldn't have the stuff
Starting point is 00:28:37 So the dog got Eat up by the stuff Chocolate tip Charlie was a real hero in it Oh he's awesome I didn't know where he comes like beating up Fighting Mo Yeah hey but then chocolate chip Then he ends up yeah
Starting point is 00:28:47 Then talking to talk to him No wait it It's 85 bro That's 85 Okay When the dude is in the bed In the hotel and gets attacked In the face by the yogurt
Starting point is 00:28:56 He's in the bed Staying there And all of a sudden the yogurt Start attacking him It exploded out of the pillow man Yeah and they have to like burn it Off his face Yeah pretty cool
Starting point is 00:29:04 That was that was pretty cool And then chocolate chip Charlie's head exploding. I have that as another cool scene. What did they use? Because they did whatever it was, shaving cream or whatever they used in making the movie. There was a lot of stuff. Oh, I was reading about it. And they said whatever the concoction was, it was so disgusting.
Starting point is 00:29:21 Like the actors even had to go and take breaks away from it because it smelled so bad. It was a foam made of blended fish bones. I also had to take break away from the movie. It was so bad. Yes. Yes. It was so bad. I could see where if I were nine, it's not scary though
Starting point is 00:29:37 I thought it was gonna be a scary movie I mean there was funny and there was scary because the whole yogurt thing for years after that you don't eat yogurt and the whole purpose of the movie is just because everybody tells you you should eat it and everybody in America is eating it's the new thing it's on commercials
Starting point is 00:29:51 it doesn't mean it's actually the best thing for you yeah how many cups of yogurt do you give it I give it two out of five two because there is a bigger message to it that I think could be easily missed but I'm going to give it two out of five maybe one Okay. Eddie? I'm going to give it one. I mean, I did like the special effects of the big foam.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Well, I feel like we could have done that here. Right. That's a lot of foam. I feel like it's very low budget. Lunchbox? Oh, I give it four out of five. Morgan? One and a half out of five. Hey, movie, Mike, your final thought on the stuff here? I thought it was ridiculous. I love the part where the kid just randomly gets in the car with Mo. He's like, who are you? Get in the car. All right. And the kids' parents are all murdered by the yogurt. He's like all chill about this stuff. He's like, oh, that's my dad and my brother. We're all good. And then he just leaves him hanging out on his own.
Starting point is 00:30:37 He gets stuck in the truck. And like, oh, yeah, you're in here. Scoob, do you have a review of the stuff? So for me, my four of you or just the rating? Whatever. I don't remember I wrote it down, but my thing is 3.5 out of five chocolate Charlie Chips. Wow. Why?
Starting point is 00:30:50 Why did you like it so much? Lonely? Well, I'm lonely. Nothing else to watch. It kind of reminds me of the killer clowns of outer space at that cult classic kind of movie film. So I enjoyed it. It was cheesy, but it was good. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:02 The stuff overall average about 1.1. 8 cups of yogurt. Yeah! We do think that it wasn't it. You didn't do it to be mean to us. I didn't. I'm telling you that was a childhood classic. The Bobby Bone Center Club will draw another movie next week.
Starting point is 00:31:14 Oh boy. We'll watch it again. All right, lunchbox, thank you. You got another one to put in there, though. Oh, I got to write one down. Yeah, yeah. A box of Moonlight. I went to watch that one.
Starting point is 00:31:22 It kept showing the guy's Wiener. That's the winner one. Here are some number ones. The number one pop song is Taylor Swift Karma. The number one hip-hip song is Siza snooze. And the number one country song is Old Dominion, Memory Lane. That is their ninth number one song. Congratulations to those guys.
Starting point is 00:31:55 Here's Amy's pile of stories. You would think that the number one thing that couples fight over when they're home and they're trying to watch TV. Dogs. Oh, are, is it something? Oh, wow, man. Anything else? Dishwasher. No.
Starting point is 00:32:07 Well, I started with money as general and then I realized maybe it was more specific for something we do. And it's like, who's going to take the dogs out? And then I hate the dishwasher. So that was my three. Okay, well, these are all TV-related arguments, and you would think the number one is like, hey, what are we going to watch? But that's not it.
Starting point is 00:32:22 Okay, I'm going to list you the top five. Go ahead. Spending too much time choosing what to watch. Well, there's so many options. That's problematic. When you have five streaming platforms in every show and you don't really have a plan, like let's just pick something to watch.
Starting point is 00:32:36 There are movies, there are shows, there are series, there's documentary. I don't know. So you just fight over. Even with myself, it's a, ah, should I? But if I, so I get that one. They keep talking while you're trying to pay attention. That's not really an issue for us.
Starting point is 00:32:50 Okay. Asking too many questions about what's going on. Nah, not an issue. Deciding. The only time I ask questions, if I get on my phone and I hate having to do this, she's like, you know, if you're going to miss stuff, if you're on your phone, you're going to miss what's happening, it's a really important time. Yeah, no problem, no problem.
Starting point is 00:33:05 On the phone, do you. Hey, how did he end up with the red hair? She's like, exactly. She's like, I told you. Yes, okay, go ahead. And then this is where deciding to watch comes in at number two. Like, you want to watch something that then they don't and you're going back and forth. Which how do y'all, y'all have a system?
Starting point is 00:33:20 We just trade. We trade or she's been right so many times. If it's a tie, I just go with her. Because I don't think she's ever been wrong. The only show that we started watching that I wasn't super into, and I think it was an attention span thing. We just started on episode three was the Anne Frank story that's on like Nat Geo Hulu. A small life.
Starting point is 00:33:39 Yeah, it's about MEEP who was taking. Making care of Van Frank and making sure they had food. And I know the story really well. And I think the reason that I can't just be like I'm ready to watch it is I know how it ends. And I'm so sad. And I hate Nazis. And I hate Hitler. And it just all disgusts me.
Starting point is 00:33:55 And it just, even though it's in history and it makes me so sad, even though the show is really good. I think that's why I'm not into it. Now that I talk it out loud. I just don't like how it makes me feel. I hate Nazis. I'm with you on that. Yeah. Godly.
Starting point is 00:34:10 All right. What else? Well, the number one thing. that we argue about watching TV with others is the volume. One person thinks it too loud, the other person thinks it's too quiet. I have to turn it up really loud.
Starting point is 00:34:20 I think because I have headphones on all the time. Although I passed my hearing test, best hearing they ever heard. And so I turn the subtitles on, though. The captions all the time for everything. It doesn't matter what it is. It's got subtitles on. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:30 It's that issue in my car, though, with my kids, they think I listen to the radio too loud. Yeah, they have headphones on all day every day. They're like, what are you trying to ruin our ears? But honestly, like, I can't hear it. It would be the other way where kids are like, Turn it up.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Right, right. What else? Well, speaking of TV, our home improvement shows making our homes boring. According to a new study, home improvement shows like those on HGTV are causing all houses. They're causing all houses to look the same. I don't know. I didn't know if I heard that right. Building roots.
Starting point is 00:34:59 Amy's sister's show, yes. Because these shows tend to focus on like what's wrong with the house and people then are afraid to take risks and they're decorating, which means homes are starting to lack any uniqueness. Why are you angry? Did you roll your eyes? Yes, and she did it. No, I'm just kidding. Like she's personally offended. It is interesting now.
Starting point is 00:35:19 I'll send this article to my sister and be like, hey, spice things up. Yeah. Well, that sounds like do it naked. I'll be honest with you. How you said that? What else? Luke Combs surprised patients at a children's hospital in North Carolina with tickets to his show this weekend. And here's a nurse giving the good news to a kid in the hospital.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Request a lot of awesome country songs. We jam out the country music. Okay, so I hope next Friday you don't have any plans because we would love to send you to the Luke Colmes concert. Oh. Hey, kid, you got a fast car. That's cool. That kid, that's awesome. Yeah, his mom was saying that her son was speechless, which is probably why you can hear him.
Starting point is 00:36:04 Don't say that. It's Dan and Shay song. Don't get that mixed up with Luke. That was Amy's pile of stories. Okay, we got a free Eddie. Eddie and Abby are heading up. They're going up north, an hour to skydive, jump out of a plane. This might be the last time.
Starting point is 00:36:17 Wait, wait, what? The last time, what? I jump out of a plane? I just want to, before you leave the plane, because Eddie's leaving right now. Are we going to hug? I just want to touch you one final time. We should say goodbye. Just in case. One final touch, okay?
Starting point is 00:36:27 Hey, I just want to tell you guys, I love you all, all. Thank you. Abby, anything you want to say to us? Yeah, thank you for everything. You're welcome. It's been fun. It has been fun. We don't make it back. But no, we're going to do great.
Starting point is 00:36:38 All right. You guys have a good time. Thank you, man. We'll see on the other side. And there they go. Abby and Eddie to skydive. We'll check back in with them in an hour or so. It's time for the good news.
Starting point is 00:36:46 With lunchbox. Tell me something good. If you live in North Tatawondo, New York, you probably see 23-year-old James Porter walking down the street, pulling his lawn equipment. He has a little cart, and he has his mower, and he drags it everywhere. Why? Because he's blind, but he's an entrepreneur. He has a lawn mowing and snow-blowing business.
Starting point is 00:37:09 And one guy was driving by. sees them walking all time, goes, man, that cart looks like it needs repairs. Does he have a cane or a dog? No, it doesn't have a cane or a dog. Well, if he's blind. It says nothing about a cane or a dog. I know, but I'm just asking how he's moving. Maybe he's legally blind, but he can still see a little bit.
Starting point is 00:37:26 He is legally blind and cannot operate a motor vehicle. Got it. That tells me he's blind. Right. Well, not needing a cane or a dog, so you can see a little bit. Can I tell you the one? You can, go. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:39 Using a cane, that is. maybe the most impressive feat in the history of the world. I agree. Because not only are you like feeling for things, but the sound of things and what you're hitting. Yeah. And then, you know, people have to learn how to use that in necessity. Yeah. But it's, yeah, it's very hard.
Starting point is 00:37:56 I mean, to be out in public, there's like on a public street, like, I can barely not get hit by car. And they, that's the most unbelievable thing of everything. I know. But that and getting a package overnight. You still obsessed with that? Still obsessive. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:38:08 But back to James. So, you know, he's like struggling because his mower's kind of broken, the wagon's kind of broken. And this guy, Paul sees him, is like, man, this ain't right. Let me go ahead and buy him a new mower, buy him a new cart. And then he put the word out on social media and drummed up a bunch of new business for him. He just saw him and bought him all that stuff. Yeah, he says the work ethic is the reason. And here's Paul talking about it.
Starting point is 00:38:31 He's doing this pretty hard job towing a trailer with a lawnmower and a wee wagon everything on it. And that's not easy, you know. So I say he must be a pretty hard. worker. And he got a free mower out of it. That's pretty cool. And he's blind. And he's blind.
Starting point is 00:38:45 And this dude got him a lot of new business because he posted about it on Facebook and social media and said, hey, guys need to hire this man. I'm looking at him now. I think he's blind like I'm blind. Oh. If I didn't wear glasses. Oh, so it's kind of like a half blind. Like I can't get a driver's license.
Starting point is 00:39:01 Yeah. But not half blind. Legally blind is what we call it. Okay. Is that it? That's what's all about. That is what it's all about. Wait, you said that.
Starting point is 00:39:10 Just tell me something good. Here's a voicemail we got last night. Hey, so I got a morning corny that my stepdaughter said, what do you call alcohol in literature? To Kill a Mockenberg. Tequila Mockenberg. Yeah, tequila. Sounds like he had some alcohol.
Starting point is 00:39:32 What do you call voicemail and alcohol that? There you go. All right, Amy, let's go to the morning corny. The morning corny. Have you heard about those new corduroy pillows? They're making headlines. Put your head on it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:53 Makes it. Yeah. That was the morning corny. You know, I just realized how much we miss Eddie to laugh at those jokes. Because there was a brief silence there after that. Usually he thinks that crap's funny. I like it too. It was good today.
Starting point is 00:40:08 But Eddie's going to jump. out of an airplane today. We may never hear him laugh with those jokes again. I almost tried to pull up or I wanted to do like a skydiving joke. Oh, you should have. No, no. It felt insensitive. Yeah, what's the sound of Eddie saying goodbye? Slat.
Starting point is 00:40:24 Oh, dang, Amy goes to, wow. I don't know. Dang, okay. So, Amy's canceled. Anyway, we're going to play this. By the way, if you're in Wichita in less than a month, I'm going to be doing two shows there. and on the Friday night show, the 11th, August 11th,
Starting point is 00:40:40 there are still tickets available for my comedically inspirational show. If you're in Wichita or near Wichita and you want to come, get tickets at Bobby Bones.com. Okay, well, check back in with Abby and Eddie just a little bit because they're ready to jump out of the plane. The average baby's birth weight is 7.4 pounds. This lady who lives down the road from us here had a baby that weighed 13 pounds.
Starting point is 00:41:01 Wow. 13 pounds. I like two babies. Crazy. Crazy. I'm going to play you. We have a clip here. Here you go.
Starting point is 00:41:08 This was a shock for sure. Our first was 9.15, so we anticipated a bigger baby, but nothing like this. I'm getting used to it, but it's definitely hard because he wants to be held all the time. So working on those muscles right now. He does eat around the clock. It's kind of hard to keep up for sure. Head full of hair. Double-size baby.
Starting point is 00:41:32 Seasection? Yeah, I, I didn't really say here. Oh. It just says a baby weighing over 13 pounds, I've been born in Tennessee, making one of the biggest babies ever born at that hospital. The baby's name is Leo Everett Taylor, 80% bigger than the average baby.
Starting point is 00:41:46 It's as big as a three-month-old, but it just came out. Golly, putting it that way. What you say, Mike? It was these section. Oh, thank goodness. It won't come out. We've got to cut it open. Dang, that's wild.
Starting point is 00:41:57 But the other baby would be in nine pounds? That's a big baby too. Oh, how big the dad is, because she's normal. Average in every way. I'm looking at the dad behind her. He's not like 7 foot 2. He's not, WMMA. That's from WSMV.
Starting point is 00:42:11 Here's a story, too, that kind of freak me out a little bit. But, I mean, it's good because they know where the kid is. But there was a teenager reported missing in Houston back in 2015, and they found him eight years later, and he's fine. It's just, he's been living at home the whole time. And he was going by other name, like saying he was his cousin, the nephew, all kinds of stuff. What? Oh, you don't, this is a story.
Starting point is 00:42:29 I thought you would have eaten up. You don't know this one? But I read it, but I'm like, what are the police? Do you not look at a photo next to him and be like, you're the same kid and do it. A 25-year-old man who had allegedly disappeared eight years ago was never really missing and has been living with his mom the whole time. Rudy Ferrius made national headlines over the weekend when it was reported he had been
Starting point is 00:42:48 located safe at a church in Houston after a year-long search. He was reported missing in 2015. Ferrius quote was not missing during the eight-year period, says the Houston police lieutenant Christopher Zamora. There had been multiple times in eight years when police officer spoke with a young man and he gave him fake names. So wild. Like, what is the point of that? Like, what is the game?
Starting point is 00:43:10 Like, what's the in-game? What's the scheme? I never read, like, the motivation behind it. I could never figure that out. Like, if she was hiding him from somebody. But again, she was hiding, he was still around. Right. Right.
Starting point is 00:43:21 Did she want to keep him out of school? Did, was there some sort of financial gain? Like, do you get money for a missing child? I don't know. Attention. And then she didn't. I don't know the answer to that, but that is a crazy story. One other one, and we're going to talk to Eddie and Abby in a little bit.
Starting point is 00:43:34 They're going to jump out of that airplane. Speaking of airplanes. on Sunday night cops in Minneapolis were waiting at the airport to arrest a guy they knew he was on the plane. And so as he's coming down, he opens the door, jumps out, slides down it and takes off running. Oh my gosh. At the airport. Absolutely. The attempted escape occurred 11.15 p.m. right there on the tarmac.
Starting point is 00:43:55 I just feel like I'd open that door and then the thing wouldn't open. Right. You're just like, I'm so betting on that slide and the slide doesn't open. But they end up finding him inside of a catering truck. Wow. That's where he hid. I'm surprised he could even get away at all at an airport running through the... Also, did he, like, start walking up the jetway and he sees the police or the police start coming on the airplane? He sees him, he's like, I'm out of here.
Starting point is 00:44:16 And he knows it's it. I would think they're not on the plane. I would think he sees all the cop cars waiting for him down below. And he knows it's him, huh? Police said the man was one of for violating a restraining order and also had an active felony drug warrant in Wright County. So he opens the door and slides down the slide. At least you got to do that. Tell us things about that.
Starting point is 00:44:30 Heck yeah. Had those charges. Slide to slide to slide. I will check in with Abby and Amy. No, Amy's here. Abby and Eddie because they're jumping out of an airplane in the next 20 minutes or so right here on the show. A win is a win. A win is a win.
Starting point is 00:44:43 I don't care what you're saying. Yep, that's me, Clivert Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football, or my career in sports media. Well, somewhere along the way, this platform became bigger than I ever imagined. And now I'm bringing all of that excitement to my brand new podcast, The Clifford Show.

I'm excited to share that I have a new podcast called Mind Over Mountain. In each episode, I interview athletes, adventurers, and adrenaline seekers to discuss the inner landscapes and life experiences that informers. and inspired their extraordinary feats. I also bring a bit of advice into the mix
Starting point is 00:47:07 so we too can better understand how to face our own seemingly insurmountable challenges. Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to pull out what you already have inside. We're coming into this world, fighting for our lives. All I'm going to do is pull out what you already got inside. We're there to support and celebrate each other. And that's not like your story versus my story.
Starting point is 00:47:27 You're going to walk up and over that dang mountain. You're not just going to put your mind over it. Yep, yep, exactly. And if I can't walk up and over it, I'm going to go through it. Listen to Mind Over Mountain every Thursday on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. We're just a few minutes away from Eddie and Abby jumping out of this airplane. Eddie, are you nervous now or excited now that it's about to happen? Man, I was so excited driving up here and then I got here and it got real.
Starting point is 00:47:54 I saw the plane. We took a class and like, I mean, this is the Army. So nobody jokes here. Like I try to crack some jokes. Oh, no, nobody jokes. They're serious, which is cool, though, because they're serious about jumping. It's going to be, I feel safe now. What did your wife say?
Starting point is 00:48:11 Because, again, here you are, a dad, four boys. You have four children, young children, one of them's a teenager, but it's three young children plus a teenager. Did your wife go maybe not the best idea? No, she said, she said, I'm happy for you. I'm glad you get to do the things that you want to do. But at the same time, she was like, hey, can I FaceTime you while you do it? I'm like, sorry, we're going to do it. on the radio. So she's like, what? So now she's going to have to listen on the radio with everyone else.
Starting point is 00:48:37 He sounds a little scared. Yeah, I'm a little nervous. Yeah, I'm a little nervous. Is Abby there with you? Yeah, yeah. You want to talk to? Yeah, let me talk to her. All right, here's Abby, who also is going to jump out of the plane. Abby, when you woke up this morning, were you scared or excited when you rolled out of bed? I was excited, but now I'm like, I don't think I've ever been as nervous. I'm not going to lie. About what, specifically? What did you see that made you nervous? I don't know. Like, I can't even process it right now. Do they tell you how high you're going to jump out? Or do you remember?
Starting point is 00:49:06 No, no, they really haven't given details on that. But just those videos are in my head, like, of this, like, what you see when you open the door. And they're just, like, be prepared when the door opens because you don't know what's going to happen. Like, they could just jump out anytime. Well, if this is the last time we talk to you guys. Yeah. Goodbye. No, not goodbye.
Starting point is 00:49:24 You really were a big part of our life. Very much. Thank you. Thank you. Same with you. Yeah, Abby, can you give us one last song before? Before you pass on. So you can cut me down right before.
Starting point is 00:49:35 Yeah, we don't need that. Good point. Okay, we will check back in with you guys in a little bit. I know you guys have a couple things to do, like strapping some stuff on, getting dressed. But we'll check back in and we'll jump out of the plane in just a few minutes. Okay, guys. Okay.
Starting point is 00:49:47 All right, bye, guys. Bye. They are jumping out of an airplane. They drove close to an hour north. They're with the Army. They're going to be strapped to somebody. But like I said, two of them will jump. One of them will survive.
Starting point is 00:49:59 Wow. That would be a great. Great reality show. That'd be a terrible show. I don't want to do this with them on the phone, but I didn't realize that after the show yesterday, you guys made goodbye messages to Eddie and Abby. Yeah. Seems a little morbid.
Starting point is 00:50:12 I know. It's morbid, but it's also that way we can get our emotions out, like our feelings, and talk about when they're gone. How many are there? We have four here. It feels kind of creepy. Can I hear lunch boxes? Yeah, here you go. Abby, oh man.
Starting point is 00:50:34 The phones are just going to ring and ring and ring. But I'm sure someone can just step in. It shouldn't be that hard, but our ability to wear that headset, that will be missed. Eddie? Man. I'm going to miss hearing about how busy he is, how he's so stressed out, how he works so hard, how he needs me to make a real for him. I mean, so yeah, really, I guess I'm just going to miss him annoying me. You know, is that like that little brother that annoys you and annoys you,
Starting point is 00:51:06 annoys you, but when they're gone, you miss them, that's what it's going to be without. That's what it's going to be, that's what it's going to be like without Eddie. Were you messing up or getting emotional? I was getting emotional. No, you weren't. Oh, my. I was like, what is happening? I thought he was messing up.
Starting point is 00:51:26 But then I know he can't edit that music like that. Okay. If they do die, this is really bad. Horrible. Yes. Yes, I've already thought that multiple times. It's the truth. And don't you believe in speaking stuff into existence?
Starting point is 00:51:38 Yeah, I don't want to speak this. They made you do this bit? Yeah. Who made you? Lunch Fox. Okay, let me hear some Amy's. I might cut it, but go ahead. How do I say goodbye?
Starting point is 00:51:52 If we lose Eddie, what are you going to miss about him? Oh, his chicken? Does he have, like, the best chicken ever? That's it? Well, no, I mean, that's only one thing. I feel like I'd be here all day but told you everything I missed about Eddie. And Abby don't even get me started. She's the sweetest person that we have on the show.
Starting point is 00:52:09 So I just feel like the whole vibe. Everything will be different. I'll feel for Eddie's family and his kids. I appreciate the idea behind it. I just don't like how it makes me feel. You might want to hear Ray's. Raise is heartfelt. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:52:21 Really? Right is deep. Okay, go ahead. What are you going to miss about Eddie? He's a good yes guy, good laugh. You know, he's always there to tell a joke. He'll give you that big belly laugh. whether he believes it or not.
Starting point is 00:52:35 He's good at videos. I mean, it might just be a blank screen if you go on Facebook after this. And, you know, I mean, it would be more parking spaces. His Jeep takes up, I think, two in the parking lot. But yeah, I'll miss him. Abby's gone.
Starting point is 00:52:52 What are we missing about Abby? Friendly smile, nice girl. Really great, honestly. Off air, sweet as can be, partied in Vegas with her one time, had a blast. I'll always cherish those memories, man. Strong, Ray.
Starting point is 00:53:05 I felt that. A fitting tribute to two people who have not died and won't die in the next segment. Well, two segments. We hope. We hope. They're going to jump out of an airplane on the air. We do not know how long we're going to say connected to them. If they get to a height and their phone dies, if the phone doesn't connect at all.
Starting point is 00:53:20 But we will be here when they jump. It'll be all live. So when they get up there and then phone dies, they just put it in their pocket? Yeah, you probably. You just zip it. When I did it, had a suit on with all the zipper pockets. That's what I was going to say. Like, what happens if it falls?
Starting point is 00:53:32 falls like, I don't think that'll happen. Because if it falls like a penny. I think it'll die before it gets to the top, the plane. So they're not going to jump out with it. They won't have connection, I don't think. Okay, because I was going to say like a penny, if you drop it from the Empire State Building, it will kill someone. It will not kill you.
Starting point is 00:53:44 It will not kill you. Yes, myth. Yes, not even rumor. It will not kill you. Okay, so we'll come back and do that. Also, let me say this to everybody in Wichita. I'm going to come up in less than a month, and we kind of decided yesterday we're we're going to shoot the first part of our special there in Wichita.
Starting point is 00:53:59 So if you're going to come to these shows, these comedically inspirational shows, We'll have full cruise there. We'll be shooting the first part of the special on Friday night. Saturday night's sold out, but we'll do both nights. But Friday night, there's still some tickets to the Wichita Show. If you guys want to go to Bobby Bones.com and get tickets. We'd love for you to come. It's going to be super cool, super special.
Starting point is 00:54:17 And comedically inspirational, it's August 11th, I think, 11th to 12th. We'll be shooting our first part of our special there. It's a good call. Which call? That decision. Yeah, because they're the best. I know, Wichita. They'll give you the, you know, energy.
Starting point is 00:54:30 They'll give me some eddies, fake laughs if I need it. If I need it. Right, Ray? I mean, kind of feels like it sometimes with me. I'm like, I don't even think that was funny, but why are you laughing? To Eddie? Yeah. But it's fun, though.
Starting point is 00:54:40 It makes you happy. Yeah, Eddie makes everybody happy. I get it. Okay, well, come back. Here we go. Well, in this next 20 minutes or so, we should be connecting with Eddie and Abby as they jump out of an airplane. I don't really know where we are right now because they went into some, hey, this is real. This is serious.
Starting point is 00:54:55 Can I'm eating? Okay. They're scuba now. Scoo, Steve. No, no, no, it's Eddie. It's Eddie. Oh. Sounds.
Starting point is 00:55:02 It's me. Okay. Okay. Where are you? Okay. So I'm waiting to get my jumpsuit on and get strapped in. Like, we're about to do that here in the next two minutes. Okay.
Starting point is 00:55:10 I got all the scoop. I'm like, what we're doing. Like, what I need to do? There's three rules apparently. When do you stop, drop and roll? No, no, no. No, don't put that on my head. I have to be focused.
Starting point is 00:55:21 Because I was daydreaming during the class for a second. I'm like, oh, no, what did they just say? It's a skydiving class and he might die and he's daydreaming. Okay. Go ahead. So what's the plan? Okay, so I'm going to get strapped that. I'm going to get all my stuff strapped in and they're going to time me up to some guy and we're going to go two and a half miles up.
Starting point is 00:55:39 And then we're going to jump, man. We're going to do it. So that would be basically 12, 30,000 feet. Yeah, 5,000, 180 feet, right? It pays a mile. Yeah. That was good. That was day dreaming like I said.
Starting point is 00:55:48 10,000, 12. Yeah, 13,000 feet basically. Yeah. That's fine, man. It's crazy, though, as you go up because you're going to be like, well, I guess it's time to jump. And they're like, no, no, we're not even halfway there yet. Hey, did they tell you, when you jumped, did they tell you to bend arch, arch your back and stuff? Probably.
Starting point is 00:56:04 I think at that point I was just like trying to pee. Like I was just nervous and I was like, don't, don't. Or trying to not. Yeah, I'm trying to like hold it back a little bit. Yeah. Okay. Well, we'll check back with you in a few minutes. We're going to do the news.
Starting point is 00:56:14 Anything Abby wants to say is she by you? Abby's on the other side of the table. That's okay. Freaking out. She looks like she's crying. What's your nervous scale right now? Ten being you can't get in the plane. One being no problem.
Starting point is 00:56:25 I mean, I mean, I'm about. I'm probably about seven. Where were you when you woke up this morning? Which is zero. I wasn't nervous. Got it. And we'll ask Abby what she is. What, Abby's at 10 for sure.
Starting point is 00:56:36 It's just freaking out. Tell her arch you back. They made her jump on a scale because they were as scared she was too light. She floats the other way. She jumps out and goes up. Oh, my goodness. Maybe they can put like rocks in her? Yeah, the parachute will just take her and like gone.
Starting point is 00:56:56 They put those ankle weights. My grandma used to work with my grandma to strap it on, right? Hey, grandma, I wear those. Yeah, and my grandma. Yeah. Okay, Eddie, we'll check it back in a few minutes. All right, I got to tell you. I love you guys. Okay, yeah, we love you too, buddy. What do you want to do, Ray? Do you want to leave them on hold, or are they just going to call back? I would say hold and then we'll do this news.
Starting point is 00:57:12 Is somebody going to check on them while we're doing the news? Yep. Okay, let me know. All right, let's go to the news. Bobby's B. Stories. The court has ruled that Lady Gaga does not have to pay the half a million dollar reward for her dogs because the woman who sued her was involved in the theft. Yeah. That's crazy. Again, we knew there was some fishy going on.
Starting point is 00:57:33 But then we thought, is she really going to get away with this? And the court said, no. Lady Gaga won the legal case over her huge dog reward because that woman was like, oh, here the dogs. Like tied up to the pole. We found them. But the crazy thing is Lady Gaga had to spend money on legal fees. For sure.
Starting point is 00:57:49 And that's so, that's frustrating. Yeah, the judge said that since, well, she was actually convicted in connection to that crime. like namely pleading no contest and knowingly receiving stolen property that she couldn't get the money for it. That's crazy. It's also crazy that guy didn't die. Like we laugh about it now, but they came and they shot him. They shot him in the chat. Boom, boom, boom, boom. And then took the little bulldogs, French bulldogs.
Starting point is 00:58:12 And then Gogh was like, where are they? I give this money. Then all of a sudden somebody's like, here they are. They're right here. Well, how'd they get back? I don't know. Don't ask. That's it.
Starting point is 00:58:21 Yep. Kevin Costner to pay a estranged wife, Christine Baumgartner, $129,000 a month. month for child support. It's from the New York Post. Kevin Costner has been ordered to pay more than double his proposed amount of child support. According to court documents, he's been ordered to pay that 129, 755 monthly to support their three kids.
Starting point is 00:58:40 Kevin and Christine will be responsible for 50% of their kids' health care expenses, extracurricular activities, and private school tuition. They're both responsible for 50% of it, but I feel like that money is probably most all of it, right? I think he's paying for all of it. I think he gives her that and then she gives like 10% of it. 10% back to pay for that stuff and then she lives the high life. Well, technically she gives 50%.
Starting point is 00:59:01 Like if school tuition, I don't know their private school, say it's, okay, fine, $10,000, she's going to have to pay $5 and he pays $5,000. Yeah, let's just say it's like 10% of the whole thing she gets every month. Oh, give it to that. And she makes $100,000 herself. Oh, wow. I mean, it must be nice. Kevin Costner's net worth is about half a billion dollars, $4 to $500 million.
Starting point is 00:59:20 And so overall in child support, he's paying 1.2, 1.30 million a year. That's nothing. probably okay. Yeah, but I mean, this woman is just chilling. She's out of his house, so they kicked her out. Yeah, she moved to like a different house. But mostly it's about making sure the kid has a similar lifestyle when they're with the mom and the dad, so the kid like doesn't have a
Starting point is 00:59:41 favorite based on just the dad being rich. Right. Oh, that's probably already happens. Yes. I wonder if he has to give her alimony too. Oh, I hope not. I mean, that's already enough. What do you mean? That's for the kids. I know, but it's a lot of money. Right. So I'm saying like What else does she need?
Starting point is 00:59:58 I'd lump it all in there, put a bow on it. Here's Alamone, here's insurance, here's. What else? There you go, lottery money. Here's your stipend. Here, $129,000. All in. Yeah, that's plenty of money to live off of for three kids and you.
Starting point is 01:00:11 A month. A month. No, I know, I hear you. It doesn't matter. Like, get out of here, alimony. Bethany Frankel says Jonah Hill was a jerk to her when they met. Well, the whole thing now is going dunk on Jonah Hill. Ugh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:23 Regardless, I don't know, Jonah Hill. Never met him. I don't know if he's a nice guy, not a nice guy. not a nice guy, but what stinks in the celebrity culture is as soon as somebody comes down and goes, this person's mean, it allows other people to jump on the story. And really, it doesn't mean Jonah Hill's a mean dude. It means anybody that has a beef with Joan Hill, now I can step forward and go like, yeah, he's a real jerk. What did it start with?
Starting point is 01:00:40 The ex-girlfriend? Yes. Okay. So that is what I start. And she waited until his now wife had the baby, and they came out and said that he was, like, emotionally abusive. Yes. And controlling. And she published all the text messages.
Starting point is 01:00:55 and... I did not see the text messages. Were they bad? I mean... Was it text with him or her friend? Mike, what do you think? Because I saw the... I don't know about relational...
Starting point is 01:01:06 Like, I did take relational communication in college or something like that. And maybe the wording is controlling, but I didn't see it as like, oh my gosh, that seems just crazy. It was like, I don't want you posting, you know, bikini picks on Instagram. That is not a good look. You know, things like that. And I was like, okay, what's the big deal about that? Yeah, I didn't read the... But maybe I'm missing something.
Starting point is 01:01:28 Regardless of Joni Hill or whomever, if somebody comes out and goes, hey, I don't like Amy. Everybody else who doesn't like Amy, even if Amy's awesome and they've had a beef with it, they can... Yep, she's a really, really bad person. Yeah, then I can publish my accounts. And you can do yours. Yeah. You've been waiting for that, though, huh? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:41 I mean, because then I saw another girl came out and said, oh, yeah, when I was like 16, and he tried to kiss me, like some actress, I don't know. Oh, what was he? 24. Oh, okay. Yeah. I don't like that story. I was with you.
Starting point is 01:01:54 No, I didn't like that one either, but I was like, Like, oh. Hey, Mike, did you met Jonah Hill once? Yeah, I'm just a big fan of him. Did anyone here, has anyone ever met Jonah Hill, have been around him? No, but I watched this movie that was really weird. The therapy one? Yeah, I was pretty good.
Starting point is 01:02:07 That was so strange. Different. Yeah. But it was very different. Yeah, I don't want to say anything else about it because I don't want to spoil it, but yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's about him in therapy. You watch him in therapy.
Starting point is 01:02:17 He's therapist. Yeah. I was one of Mike's top movies of the year, so I looked and watched it and I was like, oh, man. A study found that a majority of daters fell in love with someone who they were not initially attracted to. The question is why the modern dater understands that relationships take time. It shouldn't be rushed and they're willing to give relationships more time now than ever before, even if there's not that immediate attractiveness. I would say this is mostly women who are making the mature decision to give it time. Yeah, women are still stupid.
Starting point is 01:02:43 I was going to say, I never found an ugly, like, attractive later. Men are ancient. Yeah, men are definitely more visual only. And if the visual is not there, they can't allow anything else to develop. Again, we're baseline, shallow, where women can't actually do that. And thank God. Or I don't know that I'd be married. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:02 My wife had to find something else other than this, you know, C-minus face here. Okay. I mean, I don't like to say anything. Can you relate to that lunchbox? No. Oh, yeah. That's what I'm saying. Like, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:03:15 I mean, I don't know that. Because you're really good looking. A plus. I know. Yeah, yeah. Sleep disorder expert warns that constantly watching the clock trying to sleep makes insomnia worse. Checking the time at night is also linked to higher use of prescription sleep medications because you start to panic with each waning minute. This is the primary
Starting point is 01:03:31 care companion for CNS disorders. I'll do this. I'll be like this. Okay, if I fall asleep now, I get six hours and 22 minutes. Dang it. Okay, well, now fall asleep. I'll get six hours and 13. Dang. Okay, 544 if I go to sleep right now. I do that sometimes. Oh, yeah. It's not good to do that. I don't think it's good to do that either. And neither does the primary care companion for CNS disorders. Okay. That's right. Let me go over.
Starting point is 01:03:56 Oh, scuba met Jonah Hill. Is that Scoob on the phone? Oh, here you go. I knew somebody I met him. Hey, scuba, you there? Yeah, what's it, man? You met Jonah Hill? Yeah, it was back in 2011.
Starting point is 01:04:06 I did an interview. It was like an awkward setting though. We were in a San Francisco hotel. And talking to him was like literally talking to a wall. It's like he wasn't even there. He wasn't connecting to me. It was weird. And at the end, he kept trying to force us for a selfie.
Starting point is 01:04:19 And I was like, I don't want to take a picture. with you. You're a jerk. Let me get this straight. A celebrity was like, let's take a picture. And you're like, you're a jerk? Yeah, well, because the whole time, the whole interview was so weird and awkward and it was a terrible experience and so I didn't want a photo with him. But why did he want one with you? And then why
Starting point is 01:04:35 you're like, well, we just couldn't connect. Is it not on you at all? I mean, it could have been, but from the beginning to the middle to the end there was no personality. I mean, granted, people have had bad day. It's sure he could have had a bad day. But I've heard this from a lot of people that he's just not
Starting point is 01:04:50 the kindest person. Okay. Well, that's free chandrake. I'm on the show. I'm not dunking on Johnny Hill. He may just be a weird dude. And that's his right. Yeah, he's a weird guy.
Starting point is 01:04:59 And that's his right. That's his right. Yeah, go ahead. Okay, we're about to jump out of the plane or what? So, yeah, they're putting their gear on right now. They're the first group to go and they're walking out to the plane probably in the next two minutes. You want to talk to 80 right now is putting his gear on? Yeah, real quick.
Starting point is 01:05:09 Then we're going to play a song, yeah. I hear you. Yeah. Hello. Hey, do that thing I do in the studio where when Amy's talking for a long time, I do my finger and I'd go, hey, let's go wrap it up. Like, do that with all those army people there and tell them we got to get on the, we got to get up in that plane. Let's wrap it up. You want me to wrap up the U.S. Army? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just be, just to do your finger and be like, all right, boys, wrap it up. We got to get up in that plane. We got to get on the air. Go on, guys. I got a jump. All right. All right. All right. You feel like, so, so I got the harness on. It's stuff pretty tight.
Starting point is 01:05:40 Dude, I'm going to tell you right now. What hurts the worst is when they jerk that cable. it's like your genitalia feel it for a couple days. Oh, no. Yeah. That's not good. Yeah. Do you wear a diaper like I told you? Did I do what?
Starting point is 01:05:55 I wear a diaper like I told you? No, I didn't wear a diaper. Dude, I've gone to the bathroom five times. All right, we'll check back in in a few minutes. Hopefully you guys get up in the air soon. Hey, scuba. I love you guys. Hey, okay.
Starting point is 01:06:08 Stop saying that. Hey, Scoba Steve. Well, I just think you never know. Okay, yeah. We put scuba back on, please. Yeah, yeah. Do they know we're on the air, Ray, or we just saw... I mean, Scooba's singing song.
Starting point is 01:06:23 We just new boo-goofing this morning? I saw that guy. Hey, you did? Yeah, he said eye to me. They're like, where? At the NASCAR race. Yeah, he got him, he said, what's up, man? I was like, I don't know who that is.
Starting point is 01:06:36 And then, like, 20 minutes later, it hit me. I was like, oh, that's that new boo-goo. I mean, I had no idea who he was. Hey, Scoobo, Steve, how long when the plane's goes up until they can jump. I'm trying to time this thing out for our listeners. So where we're at, your time, central time, it's 8 or 8-10. So in the next five minutes, we're going to the plane, and that's like a quick process.
Starting point is 01:06:55 And then once they get on the plane, the whole thing is 20 minutes total. Until they get to the ground? We'll hit the ground, yeah. Okay. Then we'll jump. We'll come back with you in a second. A win is a win. A win is a win.

Starting point is 01:10:02 Hey, Scoob and Steve, are they not up yet? No, so now they've got their gear on. They're about to go outside, but the problem is Eddie keeps going to the bathroom, which has held us up a little bit. Is he so nervous? He has to keep peeing? He's gone probably four times, and he's gone number two at least twice. Is he so nervous that he's really going to the bathroom,
Starting point is 01:10:21 or is he trying to just extend it because he doesn't want to jump out of the airplane? You know, that's a great point. I don't know. But I like to believe he's going to the bathroom a lot. I don't know. That's actually a great angle. I don't know. He's gone to the bathroom six times in the past 30 minutes I've been told.
Starting point is 01:10:32 Okay. Are they going now? So right now they've got their gear on, and they're heading out towards the door to go towards the plane. So, yeah, they're like maybe five minutes from going on the plane. Okay, we'll check back in a second. Cool. All right. Eddie and Abby jumping out of the airplane.
Starting point is 01:10:45 If Eddie can get there without having to stop and go to the bathroom again. I'm worried. Six times in 30 minutes. All right. Eddie and Abby are getting on the plane right now. They're going to jump out of the plane in a second. We think they have parachutes on. We'll see.
Starting point is 01:10:59 They've never done this. Oh, Thomas, right. This is called Angels. I did not even have them like, oh, my God. Oh, no. All right. Oh, no. Eddie and Abby are jumping out of the plane at any moment.
Starting point is 01:11:11 Let's check in with Scuba Steve. they drove an hour up to Kentucky from where we are. Scova, so what's the deal now? Are we about to jump? I need to get this down. Hello, hey, we're over here. We're walking towards the plane right now. Oh, you're not up yet?
Starting point is 01:11:23 I don't know if you can hear that. Okay, so once they get in the plane, how long? Once they get in the plane, it's a full 20 minutes of getting on and coming down. Well, the plane's pulling up right now to pick them up. I don't know if you can hear that. No. I just want to make sure our listeners get to hear it that we're not like not in a commercial when they jump, you know? No, actually, yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:43 The plane's right here. The plane just pulled up. The Golden Night plane, doors wide open, and now they're walking up to it. So they speak it on here in a minute.

Starting point is 01:13:54 quick check in with scuba steve who is on the ground because we've lost cell with Eddie and Abby in the airplane Scooboosey are you there is the plane high up in the air it's so high that I can't see it anymore it's gone out of my visual will they tell you when they jump uh well they'll give us like a countdown
Starting point is 01:14:14 so I think we have like another four minutes reach out to and they'll jump. But I have a question, though, for lunchbox, is he there? He is here. Hold on, I'll connect you. Lunchbox flying, too. It's Scoob, Steve. Yeah, Scoob, what's that man? Hey, so I was talking to someone that works here for the Army, and they've been saying for years, they've been trying to get you to jump, and that you keep getting the excuse of,
Starting point is 01:14:32 oh, you can't because you can't get off work. What's your reply to that? No one, I don't know what you're talking about. I mean, really. He said he doesn't know what you're talking about, Scoob, Steve. I don't know if you can hear him. Yeah, I mean. Yeah, I don't know why the Army would lie that they've reached out to you multiple times asking
Starting point is 01:14:45 you jump. Are you just trying not to do this? No, I mean, I would have driven up there with you today. Okay. All right, well, then we could do this in a few months a minute if you want to try to jump. That's fine. I don't think he's scared of it. At lunchboxes he jumps me. I'm not scared to jump. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I would skydiving with him when we were 29. Let us know, I'm going to keep you up. Scoba, just maybe mute your phone, but just come on the air when they jump. Okay. But Ray, you can
Starting point is 01:15:09 leave him up, leave his volume up, and he can just start yelling when they jump. Did you get to that point? I mean, did you hear him trying to like. Yeah, he tried to got you, yeah, but it's like. Maybe they are thinking about another lunchbox. Yeah. Do you see Mark Zuckerberg without a shirt on? No.
Starting point is 01:15:24 You see the picture? Why, should I? Yeah, he's a monster. You liked it? He's got, I mean, you can see all his abs. And he's got big chest. He's training. He does the, the jihitsu, UFC, whatever he's doing, the MMA, all the letters.
Starting point is 01:15:39 Look at this picture of him. Mark Zuckerberg. Which, oh, okay. Wow, that is shocking. Yeah. I think you kill Elon Musk, right? Right, yes. Although Elon Musk is supposedly a jujitsu guy as well.
Starting point is 01:15:51 Is that what you do when you get rich? You just do jujitsu? I think everybody does. Because I say that, remember the episode of Friends? John Favro. John Favro plays basically Mark Cuban or Mark Zuckerberg type guy, and he wants to UFC fight because he has everything else,
Starting point is 01:16:06 has billions of dollars, so he learns jujitsu and then gets a crap beat out of him over and over again. I said Courtney because it's Courtney Cox, but it's Monica in the show's boyfriend. Yeah, Zuckerberg looks good, though. Yeah. Ray, what do you want to do? Do you want to hang out for three?
Starting point is 01:16:17 Well, he said four minutes up. They're going to jump then if we break. Yeah. But they've said that for an hour. I mean, we've been here just waiting, sitting on their thumbs. Okay. Scooby Steve. Yeah, so.
Starting point is 01:16:30 Can I find out about the exiting of the plane? Hold on. Okay. Radio here. They'll call for hot targeting winds. They're about a mile out at that point. Then they'll say standby. You'll hear it on the radio.
Starting point is 01:16:40 Stand by is everything's cleared and they're about to exit. So you get an audible signal on the, We want to go to break real quick and come back. We can probably beat it. Kind of where the moon is. They're jumping from the moon? No one said they were going to the moon. No one said they were going to moon.
Starting point is 01:16:53 All the way from the moon. Break, we'll come back. Quicker we can get out, quicker we can come back. All right, go. Yeah, let's do. Yeah, go, go. All right, turn them up. Scuba.
Starting point is 01:17:04 Jumped. Did they jump? Hey, they jumped. There's like 5,000 feet in the air, and it looks like two yellow and black birds just zoom in through the skies. It's so cool. Wait, so they jumped a long time ago.
Starting point is 01:17:16 They're falling right now. They're falling, yeah. They jumped to me about a minute and a half ago during that last song. Okay, so what's happening is Eddie and Abby have jumped out of an airplane. They are now flying to their death. Let's just be your dream of. Plummeting. Yeah, sorry, plummeting.
Starting point is 01:17:32 They're now plummeting to their death, and we're going to see if their lives are spared when they land. How long until you think they land? How much long do you think until they hit the ground possibly? Um, another three minutes, three, four minutes. Three, four minutes. Okay, so, yeah, let's just stay on. Right, hit the song. We'll come back after the song.
Starting point is 01:17:52 Run over to Eddie as soon as he lands, okay? I got you, 100%. All right. All right. Let's check in at see if Abby and Eddie have landed. Scoobah, Steve, what's the latest? It looks like they're probably maybe 20 stories up for me. I could see them both floating down slowly.
Starting point is 01:18:08 So they're alive right now? They're alive. Oh, I can't tell if they're alive. Oh. May it be floating bodies. Got it. We got to keep listeners here for this. I'm sure they're fine.
Starting point is 01:18:20 They could have passed out. They could have passed out, yes. Well, so they say that if you slow down, it's because you're scared. So they went a little slower than normal, so I'm sure they're a little freaked out. Okay. So how far are they from landing now? Because I'm sure you can't be under them when they're landing. No, no.
Starting point is 01:18:34 So I'm right next to them. So there's an area where the concrete meets the grass, and I'm right next to where I could be in the safe zone to catch them. I mean, it looks like I feel like I could jump and touch them at this point. Abby and Eddie are about to land. We're going to sit here. Breaking news. The 700 millionth person on skydive and make it.
Starting point is 01:18:50 Did he say he's going to catch them? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, I didn't know that was part of the process. Yeah, yeah, we need to spice this up. So he's going to try to catch them. We're 500 feet right now. I got the word 500 feet. That's a long way.
Starting point is 01:19:00 500 feet. Morgan's got some video on pictures too. I don't know if she's posted on social people could check out. No, she hadn't. Yes, they're on socials. Yeah. There's a picture of all of them outside the plane. I just feel awkward because...
Starting point is 01:19:13 You see how Matt. Eddie goes... What's going on? Are you celebrating? Eddie is right there, and so is Abby. They're coming down. Eddie is touching the ground, right? No, it's Abby.
Starting point is 01:19:27 Oh, my God. It's Abby. Abby came down first. That's on a raid. She wins. Abby's laying on the ground. She's not gotten up yet. Oh, no, she's moving.
Starting point is 01:19:37 Is she alive? Okay, good. And now, how far is Eddie? I mean, can it? Eddie's going way slower. Eddie is super scared. Why is there a wet spot on Eddie's suit? But Eddie and Abby are look very different.
Starting point is 01:19:49 They're both in yellow suits, though. Like extremely yellow. I hear you. I hear you. Yeah, Eddie is literally just slowly soren. He's still not down? Maybe he gets out. I can see him.
Starting point is 01:20:02 His face doesn't look too good. Abby's right there. Abby can be here shortly. Let's hit the song, and then we'll check in with him after this. Scared to cat, Eddie. Eddie's on now. Eddie? Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. Oh, my gosh. That was the craziest thing I've ever done in my life.
Starting point is 01:20:18 Talk to me about you go up in the air. Do you ever get to a point where you're like, can we jump now because it seems too high? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I thought like I would say about five minutes into the flight, I'm thinking like, all right, this is it. This is where we're jumping. But he's like, no, no, no. We've got like, you know, 5,000 more feet to go. And so we got higher and higher and higher. And then they open up this door. Dude, and I'm sitting right in front of the door. That's where it gets really. real. What did you feel whenever you looked down out of the plane? It's like, you know, when you're on a tall building and you just look down and your legs get weak, it was like that.
Starting point is 01:20:51 Did they keep you from holding onto the side because they wouldn't let us because they thought we'd hold on and not let go? Honestly, they said hold on your strap, your harness and that's it. And that's what I did, man. I was like, they called it Steve Urqueline, you know, so you hold on like your suspenders. And you just hold on to them. And so the first 15, 20 seconds, describe that feeling when you're falling out of the plane? Oh, dude, that was crazy. So, so luckily, luckily my tandem guy, he, he did everything.
Starting point is 01:21:20 He did the jump. He counted one, two, three, and then we jumped. And it's, dude, it's unbelievable. It's not, it's not like you feel like you're falling, really. Everything gets loud. I couldn't hear a single thing. My mouth immediately got dry. I couldn't close my eyes.
Starting point is 01:21:36 Like, it was crazy. Did it hurt when they pulled the cable, the cord? Oh, yeah. When you were talking about that, I'm like, it can't hurt that bad. Dude, it pulls everything straight up. Was it scary to you to float down because knowing if the parachute now doesn't work, as you're floating, then you're dead, did. Dude, this is the craziest part. So they let me pull the parachute.
Starting point is 01:21:59 No, they did not. Yes. Yes. He goes, I want you to pull a parachute. I'm like, I'm not pulling the parachute. You're going to do it. And so he gives me the sign, you know, like, I don't. You can't tell time up there, but it felt like it was 30 seconds.
Starting point is 01:22:13 Then he put the thumb up, and that means pull the parachute. I yank on the button. Dude, the parachute comes out. And apparently it was too early, but he said, that's good. That's what we want, just in case I didn't pull it right. I'd be afraid I'd pull it so hard to rip out of the front of the chest. I'd be like, ah, and it's gone. And you're like, oh, God, it's like when you pull the string out of your shorts.
Starting point is 01:22:34 And you're like, oh, no, we'll go back in. No, we're done. So when you landed relief? Yeah. Honestly, when the parachute kind of deploys relief. Yeah. Because you do feel the sense of like, all right, we're secure. We're floating now.
Starting point is 01:22:51 It doesn't feel like you're going as fast. So if we do fall, it won't be that bad, I guess. I don't know, dude. Honestly, you don't even know what you're thinking when you're up there. Gather your thoughts. Is Abby near you? Abby's right here. Is there a reason you went slower than Abby?
Starting point is 01:23:04 Were you more scared than Abby? Is that what happened? No, he made me pull the parachute earlier. Oh, so he floats longer. I bet he made that story up before he got on with us. That was good. Good story telling. Abby. Here's Abby.
Starting point is 01:23:16 Here's Abby. Oh, my gosh, I want to go again. Send her back up. It's not a roller coaster we can sprint to the front of the line again. Yeah. Abby, give me your thoughts. I can't. Okay, so like when you first jump out, it's just like this rush.
Starting point is 01:23:32 I can't even describe. Like, it's like air. like up your nose and like in your mouth. Well, good. And then you're like looking up at the plane flying away. And you just like don't even know what's going on. You can't really see. And then he pulls the parachute and you just like shoot up.
Starting point is 01:23:52 Oh my gosh. It's insane. And then we were coming down and he's like, do you want to help steer? I'm like no. No. But he's like, do you want to do like spins and everything? And it felt like we went upside down. We didn't go upside down.
Starting point is 01:24:02 But it felt like we did. It's like in a car when you go over a bump and it felt like he jumped. He really didn't. He really did. He really did jump. But it feels like you jumped. Okay, I'm glad you guys are safe. We'd like to thank the Army again for doing this and just remind everybody at how great the Army is.
Starting point is 01:24:15 So many opportunities for you in the Army to find a job, a career path that you love. Also while serving your country, that's what we did this was to highlight the Army and also to let Amy and Abby jump out of an airplane. And I think we did all of that. Eddie and Abby, yeah. What are you saying? Amy and you're next. Okay. But only with an umbrella.
Starting point is 01:24:34 Oh, okay. Oh, Mary Popper. That turns out. Okay, okay. Lobby bone show. Bonehead. Norrie up the day. This story comes to us from Arizona.
Starting point is 01:24:44 A family was very excited because they're about to have a baby. Let's tell you what, it's going to be a boy or a girl. And there's people swimming in the lake, and they get these little flares, and they shoot it, and they catch the grass on fire. And it's a little brush fire. Hurry, get it out, get it out. So then a bunch of people come over and start pouring water, pour, and they put the fire out. Okay.
Starting point is 01:25:05 That was it. That's all I got. Oh, okay. Well. But it could have been much worse. Could have been. Usually the boneheads go all the way worse. Yeah, I thought it was... Yeah, I definitely thought it was... It's like I tell me something boneheadish.
Starting point is 01:25:17 Because they got it out. Okay, so what do we learn here, though? Let's make a learning lesson out of this. Don't use fire for any reason whatsoever in a gender reveal. I mean, it almost went from gender reveal to jail. I don't know if you go to jail for accidentally starting a fire. I think you do. Fun reality show.
Starting point is 01:25:34 Gender reveal to jail. but let's not use fire in our gender reveals. Yeah, like make sure, or if you're going to do it, shoot the fire into, like, water. Oh. They might have tried that, though. You can't really, the wind blows, it blows it. Oh, yeah, and the wind was blowing.
Starting point is 01:25:48 You get better flares. Because they're not supposed to catch things on fire. Okay, that's it. All right, good? I'm lunchbox. That's your Bonehead Story the Day. A voicemail left for the show here. Morning Studio.
Starting point is 01:25:59 I have a very quick question. I've been saying for so long. I've been listening since I was like seven years old with my dad. on his way to work. Now I'm doing that on my own. I just got my first car and I was wondering what you guys think you should put in a brand new first car. What are some staples of what you need? All right. Thank you, Bobby. Well, just make sure you have the things that aren't going to get you a ticket, meaning you have to make sure you're updated insurance because I don't, I'm not good at keeping the updated insurance in the glove box. Keep it on my phone now too. But I'm not good at that.
Starting point is 01:26:29 I'll be like, yeah, let me. Oh, man, 2016. And I have insurance. I just did the printing it out. and putting it in there. Yeah, it's funny you win insurance because I went Ternicitt. A what? Yeah. Car wreck, like, if you're like losing an R. I have one in my car.
Starting point is 01:26:44 What is wrong with you guys? Insurance? Nothing. I'm not one of the guys. What, being prepared to? I think it's one of those defibrillators. I think what you need the defibrillator in the trunk. That's great.
Starting point is 01:26:54 I did it depends on what. Yes. Yeah. Jumper cables. I would say just for me, it's always tough to have current insurance. I just keep a couple bars. Snacks. In there, but not, but I eat them almost immediately.
Starting point is 01:27:04 It's like going to the movies and getting stuff. from the concession stand. I plan to eat the whole movie, but I have the whole box of milk duds before the first preview's over. And then I'm like, well, that's stupid. I could have done that at home. You have to keep them in the back so you can't reach them. Yeah, you got to have a couple of empty Gatorade bottles. That way, if you get stranded, you can use the bathroom. Why would you just peeve outside? Well, what if it's a snowstorm? Why are you driving in a snowstorm? Because that happens sometimes. Or, you know, you got any...
Starting point is 01:27:26 He said new car, so I was going to say air freshener, because if you bought a used car, got to have that air freshener. It ain't going to smell very nice. Hey, man, you got a good new car. Don't worry about us. Yeah. Just the stuff that you need. We have no idea. Because anything we keep in our car for sure? Like, is there anything you have, you have a tourniquet?
Starting point is 01:27:43 Because I don't even know that I have my current insurance right now, even after all that. I have my current insurance. I have turnicet, dry shampoo. I have nothing. I have a picture of my girlfriend, which is my wife in the corner on the front. Oh, that's so good. I don't. That's what I was doing like, what in the world?
Starting point is 01:27:57 Eighth grade. You mean you were 16? No, I like to sound cooler. And I was like 20 probably. Okay, that's it. Let's do another voicemail, Frank in Louisville, Kentucky. Here you go. Hello, everyone, on the Bobby Bowling Show. At the point of the call, I say, I love you guys, I'll listen to you guys every, every day, every morning when I can. I can remember when you guys first started, I'm hearing Louisville, Kentucky. Love you guys, love you guys, love you guys, love you guys.
Starting point is 01:28:22 Keep up to get work. Appreciate that. One more voicemail from Caleb. I agree with lunchbox totally. Florida is a devil. Once, when I went there, I had a double ear infection on both ears and gept throat and I had one and just having fever. Florida is the devil. That's pretty good. It is.
Starting point is 01:28:44 Florida is the devil, man. It's the devil. I thought that was like his kid. Lunch's kid. He's brought to this. Okay, that's it. Bye everybody. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what I'm saying. Yep, that's me.
Starting point is 01:29:01 Clifford Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits. my basketball and college football journey or my career in sports media.
