Starting point is 00:01:37 Listen to the girlfriends. Trust me, babe, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Good morning. Morning studio. Morning. Let's go around the room and check in, which is what we do to start every single show. This next person got AirPods as a gift for Father's Day, and according to him, they're brand new. And they've blown him away.
Starting point is 00:02:12 You didn't know they existed actually. Here he is. Producer Eddie. Hey guys. I brought you that chicken the other day. My chicken business is booming. I already got four orders and I'm thinking of different ways to make more money and I came up with it. Genius, genius ways to make more money.
Starting point is 00:02:28 Can you call your own self a genius? That's just a weird thing. You can say a genius way. Yeah, genius way. Okay, go ahead. Like I was in the shower and it came to me. This is amazing. For an extra $5, I'll cut it for you.
Starting point is 00:02:38 Right? If you order it normally, it's just whole. For extra $5, I'll cut it. cut it for you. I don't hate it. That's what I'm talking about. I don't know that it's genius, but I don't hate it because it's been done at every restaurant in the history of time, but I do think it's a good offer. I'm not done. Oh, there's more. For an extra $5 on top of that.
Starting point is 00:02:55 It's going to be a $40 chicken. So if you want it cut, and I will send you a video of the chicken being smoked. For how much? An extra five bucks. That's not worth that. You should throw that in anyway. Hold it. But why would you want that? There's more. There's more. And then $10 more. Go ahead. It takes three and a half.
Starting point is 00:03:12 half hours to four hours to smoke it. I will give you a link for an extra $10 and you can live stream your chicken smoking. Now, all that's funny, the live stream and the video, but that should be free as part of your, like the novelty of it. Wait, well, it's going to take effort for me to be there and, like, set the camera up and live stream. The second things are funny, but that's stupid. No? The cutting is actually pretty decent.
Starting point is 00:03:36 If you'll cut the chicken. It's good chicken. It's good. I hate to admit the chicken's really good because he's obsessed with it now. it's really good chicken. Also, I heard you're asking for like naughty pictures from people here in the building. All I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:03:48 What did you hear Eddie talking about? Like, who saw him? Eddie talking to Ryan McKitty about like sexy pictures? Yeah, who did it? Was it you that saw it? Oh, it was Abby. Abby, were you talking about that?
Starting point is 00:03:58 Yeah, I was going to my car and he was like, hey, McKitty, can you send me those sexy pics? And I was like, what? So he apparently McKitty bought one of them and he had it for dinner, but he had like two pretty blonde girls over. Boom. And so he wanted him to send him pictures of the girls eating it.
Starting point is 00:04:13 What? For yourself? No, no, no. I didn't say that. Let me tell the whole story. I was like, while you guys are eating it, if you can get videos of the girls eating it and saying like, oh, my gosh, the chicken's so good. And then tag me on Instagram and I'll repost it. It's for the chicken business.
Starting point is 00:04:29 You just want to see the chicken. No, I don't. But why do you call them sexy pictures? Because, like, you know, sex sells. Yeah, sex sells. I'm saying? I mean, here's the. The chickens are how much?
Starting point is 00:04:38 20 bucks a pop. If you want to cut, it's 5X or 25. And then to watch it stream, obviously, another 10. I mean, yeah, it would be like 30 bucks. Yeah. I would never want to watch stream. A couple of hours stream, dude. It's a lot of content, but it's cool because it starts like raw, you know, but then you slowly see it get cooked.
Starting point is 00:04:53 How do you put the camera? How do you, there's a camera not melt? I don't figure that out yet. I'm looking at that. How many chickens can you accept at one time? I think the most, I can probably do 10. A day? Yeah, I'm telling you, my wife, and she's at the end of the rope.
Starting point is 00:05:08 She's like... You just started the business. He even told me, he goes, dude, I'm only doing it one day a week. You can't order until Monday of the next. And I'm like, well, I think the demands of the raise the price of the chicken. But my wife went grocery shopping. She didn't have room in the fridge for anything because there was all these chickens in there. And you got to get a new fridge.
Starting point is 00:05:22 That's why you need an investor. That's what she said. Yeah. Are you going to stick with this? Dude, we're going strong. So why wouldn't I? The total amount you've spent is. Spent?
Starting point is 00:05:33 Yeah. On my chickens and everything? Probably $100. And how much have you made? About $120. So you've made $20? So you've made $20. Yeah, but I mean, it's the start of the business.
Starting point is 00:05:41 Got it. Okay. That's how it goes, right? He is turned into annoying. Like, you know how he used to do his reels and be annoying about it? Now all he does is his chicken talk, and it's about as knowing as the reels. Well, wait, but how much was your smoker? Did you already have that?
Starting point is 00:05:53 I had that. Oh. But, I mean, I did buy it, but I had that. Keep us in the loop. And it's called... Producer Eddie's smoking hot chicken. Smoking with an end, like a posthrophy, you know? Like, smoking.
Starting point is 00:06:05 Yeah. Thanks, Eddie. Yeah, dude. Yeah, thank you. The only thing more unlikely than this next person, accepting reality when it comes to his fame is his favorite team. The Chicago Bears actually winning a meaningful game. Here he is.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Lunchbox. Guys, I had a run-in altercation with Old Dominion. They were at the NASCAR race this weekend. I was there and I saw them filming something. And so I just start screaming at them. Old Dominion! Old Dominion! Do you not know their name?
Starting point is 00:06:33 You've met them 20 times. Not even met. You've spent time with them. I know. that couple of them. Trip. Trip is in a band called Lanco. Yep, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:47 Didn't know that. Yeah. Okay. Anyway, so I just started yelling at them. Dude, they, in their video, you hear me on their social media yelling at them, and then they bring the camera over to me to say what up. And I still don't know if they know who I was.
Starting point is 00:07:02 They were just coming over, they thought I was a fan. You have the audio? Yeah. Go ahead. Yeah. We're the Grand Motors. We're taking a victory lap here pretty soon. But we just want to say thank you guys for having us here at NASCAR. Thanks for listening to our new music.
Starting point is 00:07:20 Come see us on the road. I'm all the media, baby. Yeah. Yeah. How you boys doing? Celebrities hanging with celebrities. They had to know who you were at that point. That's why they asked the question.
Starting point is 00:07:50 I think at that point they did. But at the beginning, one of the guys was looking over like, who is this weirdo? Yeah, it's hilarious because it's just you hear you coming from afar. It's like a train coming down. That's funny. That's good. All right. The next person you can catch her Read in the Morning Corny for this show
Starting point is 00:08:06 or listen to our Four Things podcast by going to IHard Radio. Here she is, Amy. My Madam Alexander dolls arrived. The ones that my mom packed away in 1999. I didn't know when she packed these away. She acts like, that's like so long.
Starting point is 00:08:23 1999. The year. I didn't know when she boxed everything up, but she stuffed it with newspaper. And I pull it out. And it's the Austin American Statesman from 1999. And so that was the answer. I was like, wow.
Starting point is 00:08:40 The year of our Lord, 1890. And I have opened up every single box and looked at every single doll. And my kids are creeped out by them. They think they're very scary looking. But I'm ready to get them appraised. Yeah. Dr. Lori. Aren't you supposed to leave them boxed, though?
Starting point is 00:08:59 I put them back in their box. No, no, I don't think you're supposed to open them. But my whole childhood, they were lining the perimeter of my room. They've already been. Oh, God, I thought, okay. Right. My mom just saved the original boxes. This is my suggestion.
Starting point is 00:09:11 I think we should be hilarious. Are you going to take me as an investor before you get your number or no? Okay, what's your investment? I'm just asking if there's an option to that. Options, yes. There's always options. I'm open. I like that.
Starting point is 00:09:22 Everybody's got a prize, Ted DiBiasey. That being said, we need to give Dr. Lory another, that's what I thought after the 4th July, just because we got around on that. coin prank. Yeah, we need to straighten that up. Well, it's not straighted up. It's just like, let her have a little space. I was like, come on, Dr. Lori prank. Do the prank with me.
Starting point is 00:09:37 Do the prank with me. Do the prank with me. So, yeah, after Fourth of July, we'll get her on and see what's up. Cool? Cool. No more pranks. I swear to God. No more points. I promise.
Starting point is 00:09:43 You got us good, all of us. Yeah, I promise. Good. You got us real good. So it's so good. One of my buddies sent me some clips from Facebook where people were like, that was a bit the whole show knew they were in on it. No.
Starting point is 00:09:52 No, no chance. I'm telling you guys. I was so mad. So dumb. I was like, I went home to my mom. I was like, how does he get so lucky that he gets his stupid coin? It's $100,000. Like, how?
Starting point is 00:10:02 Like, how does that not happen to, is that all ever? But it didn't happen to me either, though. I know, but at the time, I thought it did. And I was tip. Ray Moon, don't hit me up from Mountain Pine, Arkansas. He's doing a bunch of comedy shows this year. So let's all a tip of beer. Bobby Bones.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Okay. Thank you. Yeah, we did announce yesterday. just following that up. We're adding Tulsa. Tickets go on sell on Friday at 10 a.m. But a second show in Tampa and Wichita and Nashville, and we're doing the show in Austin.
Starting point is 00:10:33 All the tickets go on sale Friday, 10 a.m. local time. That's not what I'm talking about here. But we did those second shows so scalpers couldn't charge a ton for tickets. So we're going to put more out there. That being said, I want to talk about my dog Eller. We bought her this box of treats. It's a plastic tube. It's almost like a Pringles can full of long beef jerky dog treats.
Starting point is 00:10:52 and we set it on the shelf. She's pretty smart. She's Husky Lab. No, Husky Hound. And she's learned to swipe things down. And what I did not know is last night she swiped it down, ate the whole thing. Every, every, I woke up and went into her room to take her out to go to the bathroom. Everyone's gone.
Starting point is 00:11:11 The can's wide open. Amazing. Her stomach's going. It's rumbling. So I took her out. She didn't use the bathroom, but I know when I get home today, it's going to be a bad day. Volcano. It's going to be a bad day. But I get it because I do that too. I have
Starting point is 00:11:26 IBS. And so I would just eat something and go like, let's go, oh, it's all here. I'm going to eat it all at once. But then afterward, I'm like, oh, my God, why did I do that? So that's the situation I'm dealing with. It just happened. I just wanted to share it. So it's relatable when the dog goes hard. Because she went ham on the whole thing. That's crazy. She can get up there and get it.
Starting point is 00:11:45 It's no. She's so stupid that she ate the whole thing. I text my wife. I was like, hey, did you happen to take all these out and put them in a plastic bag? So she was like, no? I was like, oh my God. It's going to be a bad day. It's time for the mailbag. You send an email and we read it on the air.
Starting point is 00:12:04 It's something we call Bobby's Mailbag. Yeah. Hello, Bobby Bones. I've ended up in a tough situation after trying to surprise my girlfriend. Last week, I bought tickets to your comedically inspirational shows for my girlfriend's birthday. I was going to print them out and put them in a card as a surprise. And I was going to print them out from my email and had to use the shared desktop
Starting point is 00:12:21 computer. When I went to pull up my email, she was still signed in. I didn't mean to Snoop, but I noticed the top email was titled, Catch Up Soon. It was from her ex-boyfriend. I didn't open the email, but I couldn't help but read the first. A lot of things were like, I didn't mean to. I couldn't help. I couldn't help.
Starting point is 00:12:38 That's funny. I didn't open the email, but couldn't help but read the first line of the preview. It looks like they've been emailing a few times. Now I can't help but thinking that she's planning on meeting up. She hasn't mentioned him at all. They were in a serious relationship, but it's been over five years since he's been in the picture. We've been dating for almost two years. I know.
Starting point is 00:12:54 I violated her privacy, but I can't stop thinking about it now. Should I bring it up or wait until she says something? Should I hold off on giving her the tickets? Sign, bothered, B-Team boyfriend. First of all, I got to come to the show. Let's get that show. Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course. That'll bring you back together.
Starting point is 00:13:09 Why don't you two come up, we'll talk about it on the stage. Ooh, yes. Like, she doesn't know, and then we'll just kind of, we'll spring her it on stage. Oh, gosh. That would be awesome. I don't even know what city they're coming to, but this is what I'm going to say.
Starting point is 00:13:21 You did not do anything wrong as far as you didn't go. snooping into her email, you did pull it up and it was sitting there. Now, you didn't click into it. I will say there's some restraint there. Which is amazing. Exercise and real restraint. So good for you. Do not put into this guilt on yourself. I do think it's okay to go, hey, I was up pulling out on my email and your email was up. And the first thing was up there was your ex-boyfriend seeing you an email. I didn't open it. But can you tell what that's about? I think there's nothing wrong with that because that's exactly what happened. Oh, you think he should tell her? Ask her. Yeah. I saw this email. Yeah, because he didn't snoop. If he would have logged into her.
Starting point is 00:13:54 email and been like, I think something fishy is going on. Let me log in and see what's up. Or if he just checks up on her like a creepo. Then you can't say anything because then she knows you're creeping her. However, he wasn't. He literally got on to check his own and it was up. I don't think there's anything wrong with saying what you did because what you did wasn't wrong.
Starting point is 00:14:13 What about letting the scenario play out? Like if she meets up with the X and doesn't tell him, now we got trouble. Then bust them. But you know, you have the Intel. You just sit back with the Intel and watch it play out. What are you, Scoobah, Steve? hear you. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:14:25 I just think that you can bring it up. And if you've been together two years, the relationship deserves a little bit of communication and honesty. I think that's hilarious. And I would like to see that happen with my own personal sake. And then we play it out on, again, on stage at the show. But you're fine to go to her to say, I was opening my email and your email was up. I saw it from your ex-boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:14:47 I didn't click into it. But don't do it in a way where she has to get on her heels immediately because then she won't respond. she'll react and you don't want a reaction you want a response say hey i was just going through i saw that your ex-boyfriend had sent an email to you uh i didn't click into it because it's probably nothing but judge well why was why is he mailing you you know put it on him a little bit and see what her answer is and see if she starts flustering around and depending on how she answers it you'll know your guts right most of the time but you got to come to the show either way yeah you got to come
Starting point is 00:15:18 bring your new girl to the show if you have to bring a new girl to the show all right thank you By the way, if you guys want to come to the comedically inspirational shows, well, a lot of them are sold out. But depending if you're in D.C. or Vegas, there are still some tickets left. Just go to Bobby Bones.com and get your tickets. Be in Vegas on September 9th and D.C. on September 16th. All right. Thank you guys. That's the mailbag. We got your email and we're not the clothes Bobby Mailbag. It's a Bobby Bones show interview.
Starting point is 00:15:47 In case you didn't know. Her name is Ellie Kemper. Man, you know her from so many things. But she was Aaron on the online. office. I'm a massive fan of the office. I'm massive fan of Aaron on the office. She was in bridesmaids. She was Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. She got a new podcast called The Born to Love podcast that is out now on IHeartRadio. Here she is. She's super funny. Aaron from the office. Kimmy Schmidt. Ellie Kemper. On the Bobby Bone Show now. Ellie Kemper. Ellie, how are you doing? Bobby, I'm really good.
Starting point is 00:16:21 I'm better now. Thank you for having me. You know, I felt bad because Ellie and I have a mutual friend. It's my family. It's her close friend. And I went on Ellie's podcast, which we'll talk about in five seconds. But then I called my sister-in-law and I said, will you please apologize to Ellie? Because I think they made her put my episode on very first because they launched this podcast. And I did not do that.
Starting point is 00:16:40 I'm not a divan in any way. Bobby? What? You're the opposite of a diva. Nobody would ever put Bobby and diva in the same sentence together unless it were like, I don't know, some strange sentence. There are producers. We're like, we must put Bobby Bones first. Scott and I said, yes, of course.
Starting point is 00:16:57 That's an obvious yes. We knew it wasn't coming from anyone on your team. We knew it was coming from I-heart because everybody loves you. I felt, I did feel bad. Did she call and tell you that I was like, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. Because I did. I felt like a genuine guilt.
Starting point is 00:17:12 She texted me. Okay. And she texted Scott and me because we're all friends. So Bobby, Bobby's sister-in-law is a good friend of Scott, my co-host and mine. And she texted. And we said, what are you talking? about please we should have just corresponded directly bobby and taken out blithe as the middle woman so that we could have been direct but but yeah the message was conveyed all i hope all fears were
Starting point is 00:17:32 allayed and and thank you thank you for coming on our show yeah it was awesome so the show is called born to love and it's you and scott ecker now when you say born to love you're talking to people about what exactly anything that they love and when i say anything i mean anything i mean a movie an activity a drink, a food, a clothing item. The more obscure maybe, the better. And also what we love, and this pertain to you, is when somebody comes on and say they're known for a certain thing. And it turns out that they love something that's completely different from that.
Starting point is 00:18:08 So like an athlete coming on and talking about how much he loves, you know, architecture or something like that, something unexpected. So that's what our show is. I saw Jenna Fisher was on. What does she love on her episode? She loves Keanu Reeves movies. Oh man, me too. I could have done that too.
Starting point is 00:18:25 He's like my favorite in the whole world. You could have done that. You could have done that. Your topic was fantastic. You love failing. No. But then you love learning from failure. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:33 See, they pin me into a corner on this. They're so good. Her and Scott. They pin me into a corner. Yes. And I don't love failing, but I was like, I love what I've gotten from it. And then they kind of rake me over the coals.
Starting point is 00:18:43 And it was unlike anything I've ever experienced. And I cried afterward, just in case you guys were wondering. It's very emotional. If you want the full Bobby Bones experience on our show, it was really traumatic for it. No, the whole, the whole twist of yours is that you love failing, what you just said, you love failing because it is, it has taught you so much. And by the way, it's funny what you consider failure because like you're so wildly successful. So if, if that's failure, sign me up. Yeah, but you know, you know what it's like. There's all the
Starting point is 00:19:09 stuff that people don't see. It looks glamorous, but it's, it's a lot. And so. Yeah. Yeah. No, it, it, you know, I do these Peloton classes, you know, that little. Yeah. And, you know, they're always shouting these inspirational quotes at you. And one was, I'll botch it because I tried to say it to my husband yesterday and I really messed it up. But it's something about just because the backpack, just because it looks like you're carrying the backpack easily doesn't mean that it doesn't weigh a lot. Something like. That's not a very good one. If that's it, they should work on their. Oh, no, no. It is a good one. It represents. That can't be exactly. Yeah. That's too many words. Yes. But the idea of it is like sometimes when someone's carrying a lot of grief, you may not. even know. They have a backpack on and they don't. The premise is great. I agree. But it's like if they're like, okay, everybody, if the backpack's too heavy, just don't wear it so as long as it doesn't hurt
Starting point is 00:19:57 your back. And I'm like, I'm not inspired at all. No, no. No, no. It was much more concise. It was like the backpack is heavy though it doesn't look it. Nope, botched it again. I don't know what it is. We have to go through the tape. We have to go straight to the tape. I don't know. But you get the idea. With the podcast, the Born to Love podcast and you guys, you and Scott are both, are you guys, were you guys both doing comedy of some sort? because it was just like rapid fire LOLLs with you guys. When you joined the gang, it was like, wait a minute, were we all three once together in an improv group?
Starting point is 00:20:30 Because it was seamless. It was, it was wonderful. And yes, Scott and I know each other. And that's how we know Blythe, too, because we all are mutual friend. Because we all performed together in college, we did improv comedy together. So we performed together a bunch, written a bunch of sketch shows. So there's a short hand there. But that's why it was so lovely talking to you because you just went right, you fit right in.
Starting point is 00:20:49 Will you talk about that as far as improv comedy in college and when you went into college? Did you know that wasn't what you wanted to do or was like a club that you said, let me just try this out? How did it happen? The second one. It was, let's a club. Let me try it out because I played field hockey my first year. And so I sat on the bench mostly, but I was on the field hockey team.
Starting point is 00:21:08 And I went to college thinking, yeah, I'm going to play field hockey. And I only had four years. So I was like, I don't. And no, no, I don't mean if you are sitting on the bench for four years and that's, You're getting a lot of satisfaction from doing that. Then do it. But I wasn't getting a lot of satisfaction. So I quit the field hockey team.
Starting point is 00:21:27 I had seen this improv group perform and I thought maybe I would be good at that. So I auditioned and really enjoyed it. And I'll tell you, I felt like, yeah, I'm good at this. It's much better than sitting on the bench. So that's how I joined and that's how I got involved. Did you have a sense of belonging with a like-minded group of people? Is that a bit what it was? You're totally right.
Starting point is 00:21:51 Yes, it was the group mind or whatever, and it felt like, you know, had you ever seen improv comedy in high school? I didn't know what that was. No, I'm from Arkansas too. I mean, Saturday night, I mean, that's not even improv. That's sketch.
Starting point is 00:22:05 That was the closest thing I ever saw to it. I had never seen anything where someone was making something up on the spot. And there was that thing, you know, when you find any kind of group or activity where you feel like, oh, I mean, this sounds really stupid, but these are my people like you get me so that that there was that component which is really nice and and
Starting point is 00:22:23 rare you have to be really vulnerable doing improv much like writing in a group much like even doing the show like we have to trust each other a lot because we're on and we're live and there are millions of people listening every day and we have to have each other's back or we we bong which we do we also fail miserably live sometimes but to do that you do improv that is a lot of hey I'm going to trust you and I'm going to kind of open myself up here to hope that you catch me if I fall. That's exactly right. And you have to have that trust. And this will sound maybe trite, but I think there's such a great life lesson or guidance there,
Starting point is 00:22:59 which is that improv is mostly about the other, making sure that your teammates look good. So it's about taking care of your teammates to serve. Now I'm getting really artsy, but it's to serve the whole piece. So you really have to trust each other so that you're making something good. And it's not about any one member, which I think really helps. And like the best improvisers are the people who don't necessarily get, you know, the spotlight, but are just constantly helping out the whole piece. This show here that I have, it's all my, we've been, Amy, how long have you and I've been together? Me, 17 years.
Starting point is 00:23:34 So, and Amy never done radio, right? These are all my friends from before. I don't really know what I was doing, but so I just grabbed all my most interesting people. And Amy was like selling granite. She had graduated or went to Texas A&M. And so we've kind of grown through this together. But in her last couple of years, she's like, I'm going to challenge myself. And so she has a little part on an HBO, or I guess it's called Max or snack or something, whatever.
Starting point is 00:23:58 Now it's Max. It's Max. Yeah, she has it. But she's like, I'm going to start taking improv classes, like as an adult, right? So what advice would you give her? Okay, well, first of all, congratulations. Wait, what is the Max show? Well, it was a Christmas movie.
Starting point is 00:24:13 It's called Holiday Harmony. Oh my gosh, congratulations. You're the only one who hasn't seen it. Yeah. I am. So I know that that's huge. And I don't, what advice did you say? What advice could you take for me?
Starting point is 00:24:25 I feel like taking improv is so, an improv class is so helpful for anyone, whether it's like, if that is, you know, in and of itself the aim just to take an improv class because you want to, you know, learn about improv or if it's to help in other aspects of acting, it's all about listening and responding, which I guess is the central tenets or component of acting, which is like, listen to what your scene partner says and respond. And that's just as simple as that. And there's nothing that hones that skill, I think, better than improvisation. Because if you deny someone's reality, then it's like the whole thing falls apart. So where are you taking classes? Well, in Nashville, there's this place called Third Coast Comedy. And that's where I'm going to...
Starting point is 00:25:09 It's behind a Wopah House, right? You're the only one? No, I'm not. But my daughter. daughter, she's 16, and she found out signing up and she expressed interest. And I saw, I'm really glad you shared your experience just now when you were younger because there's a camp that I can sign her up for at the end of July. And so now I think I'm going to sign her up. It's for high school students and they get to show up for a few hours each day and practice improv. I love that. I really don't even know if such a thing was offered when I was that age, like at 16, you know, I mean, like in high school, because I think that improv has gained such,
Starting point is 00:25:41 or it's it's i think there's just more knowledge of what exactly it is now so that there are more classes like that offered i just think it's really i don't know at the end of the day i think it's a lot of fun it's just fun you're just making things up so having said all that i haven't performed improv with a group live in a long time and it makes me nervous to think about because yeah you can't plan it any of your shows like kemmy smit or the office how were any of them did were you allowed to in any, okay, it's the final take, guys run where you want to run. Did you ever do any sort of improv in that comedy or was it all really scripted and, you know, you have to stay on point?
Starting point is 00:26:23 Kimmy Schmidt was scripted so carefully and so precisely. I mean, there was not a word in that show that was improvised. And the writing is brilliant and the jokes are so painstakingly honed and polished in the writer's room. And there's no improvisation on that show. And this show's fantastic. And on the office, there was much more, it was just a different style. So there was much more room to breathe, much more room to improvise.
Starting point is 00:26:47 I personally never improvised on that show because I was like, leave it to the veterans and the people who have been here longer than I have. Like Steve Korel, Rain Wilson, I mean, basically everyone who has been there longer than I have. But it was, they would, they would do like, you know, three takes to scripts. And then they would do what, what they call a fun run or it would just be improvised. But also in the moment. I mean, when you have people who actually are trained in improv and good at it, there's nothing better than watching them improvise. And bridesmaids, Kristen, Whig, and Melissa, they improvised so much stuff.
Starting point is 00:27:21 It was such a joy to watch. It was just like, having said that, the flip side is, if there's somebody who's bad at improvising, you don't want to watch them. You're like, don't take the fun run guy. Just leave it to the pros. It's definitely not the same story. But when I went on to American Idol, and I spent four years on that show four seasons, but I went in, later and everybody was already there in place like Seacrest was there the judge but they brought me on to be on every episode and I kind of felt like I'm super happy to be here and I don't want to step on
Starting point is 00:27:49 anybody's toes but I'm the new guy to something that's been running for perfectly for a long time you did that in a much bigger way when you went on the office was that is that difficult when you go into a situation like that Bobby it's not a bigger way it's there it's apples it's two different things. And yes, I totally relate to that because you're like, clearly they have set up a show that has a winning formula. And now I won't extend this to you, but I was the new, the only thing that could happen is something could get messed up with the addition of me. So I was like, just don't, just stay in your lane and, you know, keep your head down and don't do anything wild. So it does feel like my Peloton instructors might disagree with me because they're always telling you
Starting point is 00:28:35 to take the backpack, whatever with the backpack, but also don't stay in your lane, like make waves. And I'm like, yeah, there's a time and a place for that. But when you're new at a job, you should probably learn first and stay in your lane. Whenever, and again, don't know if it's the same for you, but the analogies are not the same because you're way more successful with this than I am. But when I went on American Idol, they brought me out for one episode that got turned into two, that turned into four years. Because I don't think they ever had a plan to bring me on the whole time, because I don't think they could see what I thought the value I could provide. And luckily I did.
Starting point is 00:29:07 Yes. What was your deal there? Were they like, okay, here we go. Four seasons. Let's go. Six seasons. No, Bobby, you and I have a very similar track in some ways. I was brought on for like a story arc.
Starting point is 00:29:19 And then, I mean, luckily, they just continue to extend my character's arc so that into a storyline so that she joined the cast of, or that I joined the cast of. of the show. So no, when it came on, I think it was supposed to have been for four episodes. This sounds eerily familiar, Bobby. It does feel like, the same masterminds at hand. Bizarro world me, it's just way more talented. That's who you are. You're bizarre a world me. That's just not the case. Yes. But aren't you, don't you feel like, I don't know, it's a testament. The American Idol's producers knew what they were doing by keeping you on. If I may say so. I think they, look, I'm not, I'm nothing pretty to look at. And I'm a, I'm a, what do you call
Starting point is 00:30:03 Like, what's beer when you drink beer? It's an acquired taste. But then you love, I've never had beer, so I don't know. But you've never, have you, haven't you talked about this one? You've never had beer? I've never tasted alcohol. You've never tasted any alcohol. Never, no.
Starting point is 00:30:15 And I just had everybody, everybody, I wish I could. I'd be awesome at it. I'd be the greatest drinker in the hole. I'm so competitive. I would win every drinking contest. I just, I have a ton of people that died from it. So I'm just like, dang, I can't do it. Nope, don't touch that.
Starting point is 00:30:29 I'm a dick. I'm having a very addictive personality in general. Yeah. Yeah. What is your personality type? Do you do the Indiogram? What are you? What's Indiogram?
Starting point is 00:30:38 Well, it's like the Eniogram. E.N. N. E.N. Yeah, I'm a hillbilly. Sorry, I'm from Arkansas. India. The India. Does he mean? Do you mean Instagram? No, no, no, no. Elle, you've never done the Eniogram that tells you your number.
Starting point is 00:30:52 Like, I'm an eight, which is. Oh, I've never done it. What is it? Oh, wow. It is. Wait, is this a very common thing, or do you talk about it? Am I missing something very obvious right now? Oh, yeah, I would say yeah. It's pretty common.
Starting point is 00:31:04 It's not just an inside joke. It's a pretty common personality test. First, it was love languages. They would do all that. Oh, yeah. The Enneagram, they give you a number based on the type of personality that you are, and then the kind you match with the best. And for me, I don't believe in a lot of the hocus pocus,
Starting point is 00:31:19 but it's a really good one. But you've never done it. No, but I'm writing it down so I can do it, you know, when we finish. It's, what is it exactly? What does it take into account? And what does eight mean? Your number eight? Oh, Challenger.
Starting point is 00:31:31 Yeah, I'm a challenge. Oh, yeah. Yeah, a lot of great dictators have been eights. Okay. No, Bobby, I know I've only known you for, well, I guess we talked for an hour in our show now. So I haven't known you for two hours yet. But you do strike me as someone who might share the characteristics of a dictator in a good way. Yes, because all dictators are obviously wonderful people that have the best in mind.
Starting point is 00:31:58 They're determined. Yes, yes. The best interest of the people. people at heart. No, Bobby, that makes sense. Well, I'm going to do mine and I'll tell you what I have. I'm probably, I don't know, timid. A six is a backpack wearer, so you'll probably do that. Yeah. Spoiler alert. What is Peter Pan goes wrong? Oh my gosh. Okay, listen to me. Do you know that I'm on Broadway?
Starting point is 00:32:19 Well, I mean, I, what does that mean? Are you, are you? It's a, okay, so they have, so if there's this show, there's this play called Peter Pan goes wrong. It's by the same creators of this play called the play that goes wrong. And it's a fantastic farce, spoof, fun, slapstick comedy. And it's all British people, so you have to, you know, get used to the different accent.
Starting point is 00:32:41 And it's a show on Broadway, and they invited me to come on and be the narrator for a week. And I'm doing that right now. And do you know what the best part, Bobby, is that you may have guessed this. As the narrator, I'm narrating the show, but all of my lines are written down in the book.
Starting point is 00:32:55 So I don't have to read the lines. Would you say? You get to read the lines and I have to memorize it? That's exactly right. And my husband said, well, don't you want to know them just like in case something goes on? I said, no. I trust the book so much more than I trust my own brain.
Starting point is 00:33:08 And this is coming from I should be able to memorize lines well, Bobby. I'm an actress. Can't. Nope. Not since the pandemic. I don't know what happened. I can't. My brain doesn't work the same.
Starting point is 00:33:18 So all the lines are in the book. And it's been really fun. It's like a show that's appropriate for kids. So kids come. It's a really joyful experience. So that's what I'm doing right now. Do you have to read it in a British accent? That was my fear, is that I would have, and no, I don't.
Starting point is 00:33:34 I'm allowed to be me, Ellie, coming on as the narrator. So it's my accent. It's my Midwest, flat A accent, just gracing the ears of a theater full of people. I'm going to ask you one question about each of your projects. Let's start with the podcast, the Born to Love podcast. Why in the world with all that you're doing? And we're talking about the Netflix thing in a second. But why do a podcast now?
Starting point is 00:33:58 What a great question you have. And with all that I'm doing, that's funny because you have 7,000 hats on. I'm not doing that much. And the show, the podcast was like a must do because it's with one of my, the longest, dearest friends I've had in my life, Scott. And we love performing together and we hadn't worked on something in so long. And he lives in L.A. I'm in New York. So it's an easy thing to accomplish long distance.
Starting point is 00:34:23 And I'll just say this. We wanted to, this is corny, but we actually wanted to make something that was buoyant and joyful. There's a lot going on in the world. So we wanted this to be a really nice little escape where people like yourself, delightful personalities come on and talk about things that bring them joy. So that's why we wanted to bring some light. We wanted it to be funny and not too serious. And we wanted to have a good time with each other. So that's why. A quick pivot. You always seem, and I know seeming is not reality because I experience this too, but you always seem to be in such a wonderful mood, like your personality or even the characters that you've played have always been so
Starting point is 00:34:59 positive. Are you ever just like, man, I'm just, I don't feel great. I don't want to have to be in a good mood, but because everybody thinks I am a half to be or they're going to say I'm a jerk on Instagram. Bobby? Yes. Does it happen to you? Yeah, we're, I'm very quiet. When I'm not on, I'm just not on. And so people will be like, I saw Bobby and he wasn't even that nice. And I'm like, bro, I was in line at subway. What do you want me to do? No, no. You, this is the thing. Now, what a lucky thing to be recognized and, and, like, appreciated in that way. But the thing is that you're human. So, of course, you're going to have downtime.
Starting point is 00:35:34 So you don't smile at Subway, Bobby. Have a minute to yourself. Rest. I feel like when I'm at home, am I ever in a bad mood? Again, my husband's not here right now. But, like, I just, oh, I, same. When I'm not on, I'm not on. We'll leave it at that.
Starting point is 00:35:51 Happiness. Happiness for beginners. we're talking about On, and this is based on the book. And again, that's what led me to this question, because again, this is, this is that, right? And so this is coming at Netflix and what's month seven? Hold on January, February, March, April, May, June, July, next month. Okay. So I have to do fingers for months.
Starting point is 00:36:10 I love that I'm actually better at you than something. Well, better than you at something. It's like, I can name the month by the number. So this is- Very good. I'm good with July and seven. That's a surefire for me, but yeah. What this is coming on?
Starting point is 00:36:24 What is this? It's coming at July 27th. It's a movie on Netflix. And it's actually, Bobby, the title might be misleading because I actually play, well, let me back up. It's based on a book by the brilliant Catherine Center called Happiness for Beginners. And it's about a woman, an unhappy woman who is going through a divorce and decides to go on a hike to kind of, you know, for lack of a better way of describing it, find herself, regain some peace.
Starting point is 00:36:51 And so that's me. That's the character I play. And it was, and she does find some meaning. And it's a really, really lovely, sweet, uplifting story. But it was fun to play, Bobby, a woman who's like grumpy. And she's a grumpy woman. And it was fun. It was really fun.
Starting point is 00:37:07 The three projects left, the Great American Baking Show, when you did the Celebrity Holiday Special, did you eat a lot of food? Or is it just you do a lot and you look at it and don't? The second one, because you would think, oh, there's so much to eat here. But in fact, and they do offer at break time or whatever after the pete, the bakes are complete. They always call them the bakes. Isn't that funny? So when the bakes are done, they offer it to anybody who wants it.
Starting point is 00:37:31 But, you know, there's only so much baked goods you can take. So it wasn't as much gluttony as I thought it might be. Yeah, I think I would eat all the time. Do you want, addictive personalities. So there you go. And I used to work at it, like I worked at Hobby Lobby and I would eat all the candy all the time in front of me, all the paydays. I cannot eat a payday today because I ate so many paydays when I was working in Hobby Lobby. I hear that.
Starting point is 00:37:51 And then you just like you can't. That's me and nutter butters. I can't. Nutter butters? A nutter butter. Keep those nutter butters away from me. And I don't want that to happen to me with a payday because I love pay days. So I'll keep those, I'll keep those like rare and special.
Starting point is 00:38:05 Two questions left. If they came back and said, hey, we love Kimmy Schmidt. We'd like to bring Kimmy Schmidt back. Yes, in a heartbeat. I don't know what the question was. That was it. How would you feel about that? Because I loved that show.
Starting point is 00:38:19 Oh, that. That is the greatest compliment. Thanks for saying that. I would say yes in a heartbeat. The brains behind that show, Robert Carlock and Tina Faye, are just like supreme. There's nobody like them. So anything that they work on, I want to work on. And so yes, I would say yes in a second.
Starting point is 00:38:35 And then the performers, are you kidding? Like the rest of the cast, it's one of those things, Bobby. Have you ever worked on something and you're doing it? You're doing it. And you recognize that it's special. But it's not until it's over that you're like, oh my gosh, was that special. That's what's happened to me. The Born to Love podcast is what I felt.
Starting point is 00:38:49 I knew what was happening. I was really feeling it. Then when it was over, I just cried. I just cried because it was so amazing. I wish I knew the good old days when they were the good old days, Ellie. And she felt that way about our hour-long chat. Thank you. And then finally, well, I'll just ask that leads into this.
Starting point is 00:39:06 The final episode of The Office. How emotional was it and was it and how long was it? It was really emotional. And I felt like a little bit of a fraud because I did join the cast in the fifth season. So it's not like I'd be there from the start. But I had all the emotions. I hate when people say that.
Starting point is 00:39:27 But I did. I had all the feels. And it was like, it was, why do I feel like it's stretched over the course of two weeks? But that's what comes to mind. And yes, people were crying left and right. It was a really like emotionally charged episode. And I just remember seeing Rayne Wilson weep. And I was like, oh, the, the, the, you know, the, um, the exterior.
Starting point is 00:39:49 What am I trying to say? The tears of the clown or whatever. You're good with words. What am I trying to say? It was like, wow, I've never seen them cry before is what it was like. You did good there. Do you have any backpack stories you can tell us to, maybe? I told you.
Starting point is 00:40:03 It's why I'm not a Peloton instructor, okay? Believe me, I've tried. Everybody that's listening now, check out the Born to Love podcast. It's super funny. I'm on an episode. I did not mean for the episode to come out early. Bobby insisted that it be the very first one. Yes, I demanded.
Starting point is 00:40:17 I demanded. Yes. It is super funny. So it's Ellie and Scott. It's called Born to Love. Even their logo looks rock and roll. It looks 80s rock and roll. Yes.
Starting point is 00:40:27 That's exactly the vibe we're going for. And I have to thank you again for being so nice to come on our show because I know you're very busy. And we really, really are grateful to you for taking the time to be on our show. Well, I'm a massive fan. You're awesome. And I asked Blythe to my sister-in-law. I was with her last week. And I said, hey, would Ellie and I be friends in real life?
Starting point is 00:40:43 And she was like, oh, yeah. She's awesome. And so now I really, I didn't believe it at first because I thought, what, maybe a fraud, but no, now I'm fully in. No, no, no, it's real and we're going to be, you know, oh, right, you don't live in California. Yeah, I'm in the middle. All right, never mind.
Starting point is 00:40:58 I keep saying, oh, we're going to be in California. We'll all get together, but we won't get, maybe we'll zoom together with life. And it'll be like we're in the same room. Yeah. Are you one of those people that go, hey, let's do something and then you never really do it. That's it. Yeah, cool, me too. So we won't.
Starting point is 00:41:10 That will never happen, Bobby. Yeah, cool, cool, cool, cool. All right, you guys. All right, good to see you. And talk to see you. Bye. Thank you, Bobby. Thank you guys. Bye.
Starting point is 00:41:19 A win is a win. A win is a win. 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,

Starting point is 00:43:10 My dad gave me the best advice ever. I went and had lunch with them one day, and I was like, and dad, I think I want to really give this a shot. I don't know what that means, but I just know the groundlings. I'm working my way up through, and I know it's a place that come look for up and coming talent. He said, if it was based solely on talent, I wouldn't worry about you, which is really sweet. Yeah. He goes, but there's so much luck involved.
Starting point is 00:43:36 And he's like, just give it a shot. He goes, but if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit. If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration. It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat. Just hang in there. Yeah, it would not be. Right, it wouldn't be that. There's a lot of luck.
Starting point is 00:44:00 Listen to Thanks Dad on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. It's time for the goodness. With producer Eddie. Tell me something good. The other night, Robert Sneed from Ohio was going to Walmart with his daughter, and they get there, and they go and get a shopping cart. He pulls it out of the thing. He gets it.
Starting point is 00:44:22 He gets it. He gets it. He's like, oh, somebody left a shopping list. He grabs it. It's not a shopping list. It's an envelope full of cash. $2,000 in $100 bills. He's like, uh-oh, uh, what do I do here?
Starting point is 00:44:34 And there's a bank slip in there. He's like, oh, I can take it to the bank. Return to the bank. They can figure it all out. But it's like 9 o'clock at night. He's like, oh, the bank's closed. I can't do that. What would you do?
Starting point is 00:44:44 Keep it. Yeah. I'm just surprised you said it like that. I appreciate the honesty. I mean, it's, because that's. Oh, man, it's happened. When I worked at Sam's, Renee found a bank bag.
Starting point is 00:44:56 Renee. $2,670. One of the ones you zip? Yeah. But where was the bag? It was in like, you know, where you put a child? Yeah, and the shopping cart. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:07 Yeah, yeah. And all we did was pick up shopping carts. And he happened to get that. That cart. Renee was a dude? Yeah, Renee's a dude. French? No, Hispanic.
Starting point is 00:45:15 Got it. And he came over and we counted it right there on the side. And $2,670. And we looked at each other and he's like, I ain't turning that in. And so we just said it. Like out there where the cart, like where our lemonade stand was and everything, he put it in a box. He's like, someone comes back for it. Fine, they get it.
Starting point is 00:45:33 If not, never saw it. Two and a half hours later, and a lady came back. she was shopping for the Little League and she had left a bank bag had we seen it and you said and Renee gave it back to her wow wow
Starting point is 00:45:49 so you were hoping that she wasn't going to come back and then you keep it but he found it he was going to give me 500 to keep quiet would you have kept quiet or would you have negotiated for more no I'd have taken 500 at that point
Starting point is 00:46:04 I was 19 years old so what was the time frame like if she would have no if we had to close that night So just that night. Yeah, it's over because then you go home and she comes back the next day and I never saw it. Now I never saw it. Then you're lying. No?
Starting point is 00:46:18 Money gone, sorry. Money gone. Sorry. Eddie, what happened to yours? I feel like it's not the same. Okay, so Robert. Is Renee in the story? No.
Starting point is 00:46:24 So Robert found a manager. He turned the money in and the manager said two nights later, somebody came and asking for the money. And they got it to them. Two nights? Two nights. How do you take you two nights to figure out you're missing 2000? Maybe they looked at other places too. Right.
Starting point is 00:46:39 They don't know where they misplaced it. They went to 10 places. How'd they pay for the groceries if they didn't have that money that was in the car? No, they probably paid for the groceries and that was left over money. And they went out to the parking. That's what happened with 2000. I'm just saying if that number was really just 2000,000, zero, zero, zero. That's clean 2000.
Starting point is 00:46:58 That's like money that's. Maybe that's business money or something. I don't know. Well, I get for them for turning it in. Yeah. I would have kept. Or maybe it was a drop. Like they said, hey, I'll leave it in a shopping cart.
Starting point is 00:47:08 Not a very good drop. They should work on their drops then. I'd say that's not the best one. That everyone's going to get? No, because Renee's going to find it. Everybody knows that. I'm thinking they didn't want to leave it in the car because someone might break in to get it
Starting point is 00:47:17 so they took it with them. Lots of stories here. The good story is, though, they got it back. They got it back. Gave it back. Good job. That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good.
Starting point is 00:47:26 I hate having to be the mature one here. I love pranks, but sometimes I just have to step in. Amy, lunchbox is trying to get one over on you by setting up an account to catfish you for a dating website. I just have to let you know. Why are you doing that? Because I just think there's a difference in being mean. That's not being mean.
Starting point is 00:47:42 And a prank. No. He was trying to build a site. So when you get on. A site. Well, he was gathering all the information about you to build a perfect guy. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:47:52 Oh, my God. So then he would have to get matched with. No, no, Amy, this is what I was doing. I was like Christian mingle. I wanted to do segments on the air. And I sent Bobby, hey, I need to do, we need to do a segment called, What Are Your Hobbies, quote unquote, but spend more time on Amy because I need to know her hobbies. and then I need to know we want to go around the room and go likes and dislikes in our partners.
Starting point is 00:48:13 And I wanted him to spend more time on you so then I could fill out the profile. And I said we would never have to tell Amy about this until we got a good match. If we got no good matches, hey, don't even worry about it. No big deal. She'll never know. And what she doesn't know doesn't hurt her. But if you find a good fish out there for her, we just wanted to catfish you and he'd be a fun joke. No, I wanted to catfish her.
Starting point is 00:48:35 That's exactly what I did. You were going to create a profile just so she would fall in love. with it. No, no, I was creating her profile so guys would match with her and we would set her up on dates. I needed her likes, her dislikes, her dislikes, her hobbies. He was going to try to find me a date.
Starting point is 00:48:49 I don't think that's... Because, I mean, how can he guarantee that I was going to be on Christian Mingol? I see what he's trying to do now. Yes, I was trying to... He was going to take pictures from your Instagram and I was going to put them up. So you're telling me... He was going to pretend to be me. Let me just... Oh. Yes, I was going to pretend to be... Which one's worse?
Starting point is 00:49:03 The lunchbox was creating a profile to catfish dudes? Or the lunchbox in front of catfish, Amy. Because when I thought it was, I thought he was trying to catfish Amy and build a, he was like, let's find Amy's like so he could build a dude that liked the things that she liked. No. And I wasn't going to catfish the dudes because once they reached out, I was going to be like, all right, I was going to bring the profile to you and be like, hey, do you think Amy would like this dude? Let's bring him to Amy. But for what?
Starting point is 00:49:25 What's the reason? But you're going to act like Amy. Yes. Which is creepy. That's creepy. Because Amy can just be Amy. Like, I don't understand what his role is. She's not going to do it.
Starting point is 00:49:35 I'm trying to help her. Yeah. He's understanding that I probably, I'm not going to get on a bunch of websites or anything. I guess I only went first level with lunchbox. He was actually going second level where he was going to be Amy. Right. Yeah. That's like, yes, this is like, uh, it's even creepier than I thought.
Starting point is 00:49:52 It was pretty creepy. Listen, this could have gotten real. I'm glad you said something because it's, this is down a dangerous path. No, no, it's not dangerous. You would have been living as second life as you. Because you would have really gotten into it. Next thing you know, you're juggling all these things and you're me on these, all these different sites, and then you really get into it.
Starting point is 00:50:05 And then you dig yourself into a hole and you can. it dig out and next thing you know you're on the news. That's how it happens. And that's how he gets on the news and he wins. That's the whole point. No, literally I wouldn't going to respond to them until I got... Yeah, right. You didn't gotten into this.
Starting point is 00:50:17 Yes, you wouldn't be able to help yourself. It had been... You had so much fun doing it. But you ruined it. Well, I thought you were trying to catfish her. I didn't realize you wanted to be her. Yes. I didn't realize you wanted to wear her skin.
Starting point is 00:50:28 That's weird. Now, would you have gone along with that one? No, because it's even weirder, I think. Yeah, because you're putting me up on all these websites. Not just Christian Mingle. You're a Christian woman. Yes, but why not put her on, but why not put her on like hinge and the other sites too?
Starting point is 00:50:46 Oh, I was just trying to. Normal dudes. Well, you guys were worried about hinge and so I heard. No, that's Tinder. Oh. Well, I just know Christian mingles like. And do we think maybe he just wanted to get on these dating sites himself? Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:57 And this is a reason that he could get on to. Wow. What would be really suspicious if he's like, woman seeking woman? Hey, Amy, what are your hobbies? So speaking of hobbies, I guess that's what I was trying to do, but I can't trust anybody. You know my hobbies?
Starting point is 00:51:14 Morgan, what would you recommend Amy to do here? I think she should get on a hinge. I did some research on it. I put my ages up to see what her experience would be like on hinge and there are some pretty good candidates on there. So I feel like she should go on hinge if she's ready. If she's at that point in time and she's ready, Hinge is the one to go for.
Starting point is 00:51:30 What do you think her age parameters should be like 65 to? 65. Is that too old, Amy? 65 to like 40? Amy, how, can I ask how old you are? I am 42. Okay. So would you go like 24 to?
Starting point is 00:51:47 No. I would say maybe 40 to 50. But maybe she won't, how young would you go? How young would you go? That's a good question. I like the question. I will allow it. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:51:59 Sustained. Honestly, I don't, I don't know. I've only ever dated. someone my age or like my husband was three and a half years older than me. So 30. My college boyfriend was a year older. No. 30.
Starting point is 00:52:15 I don't think that I have anything in common with. Oh, you do. A 25 year old. 29? You can find it. I think that I just, I've lived, I've experienced a lot. I'm a mom. Like I have a 16 year old daughter.
Starting point is 00:52:29 Like there's just certain things that aren't going to be. I feel like a 30 year old, they may want their own kids. you know and I but what if you let those limitations only exist if they actually limit you yeah why would you give yourself limitations that there's no reason to limit yourself right now okay well I just like what's what you says
Starting point is 00:52:47 when the tassel moves to the other side yeah what about 21 I don't even no and I'm still uncomfortable while I'm open to it even having this conversation is uncomfortable how young though really if you were setting it up today which you're not what would you put your bottom age 38 there's your answer
Starting point is 00:53:03 What would you put your uprange? 70? 38. 50. What if they're really rich? 78. 78. What are they really loaded?
Starting point is 00:53:14 No, no. What if they're Al Pacino? Alpuccino, yes. I would say 55. No. All right, I'll put 55. No, you're not doing her. You're not having that sight for her.
Starting point is 00:53:24 But I would say 38 to 55. I'd say 21. I'd say. Okay. Okay, well, listen. You're giving him information. Lund drugs, please don't put me on our website. Yeah, that's not good.
Starting point is 00:53:41 I was just trying to help a friend out. You weren't. You were doing a bit that you wanted to have like a prank. Look, when Amy's trying to find love, I'm here for her. I'm helping her out. Thanks, buddy. We're going to hold off on that, though, for now. I won't put her on a website.
Starting point is 00:53:53 Okay, what will you put on? I'll put her on an app. You got us. He really got a semantics. Oh, yeah. You guys are smarter than us. I go back and forth. See?
Starting point is 00:54:01 See? Now we're getting to somewhere. Not with the age. but just with like working, like being okay was working on myself and having this opportunity to really just dive in and focus on my kids, but also focus on me and what I want and not worrying about. Both can be done. You don't have to worry. Right. I just kind of be a little detached from it.
Starting point is 00:54:21 Like, okay, whatever. Then you should. Hobbies, detachment. Detachment. Gardening. Burn watching. Self-watching. Self-help.
Starting point is 00:54:29 Okay. Podcasting. That's good. Doing and listening. Puzzles. Puzzles. Okay. You aren't going to get all meme-alls with these. Oh, see-balls and me-miles. Okay. Our executive producer, Scuba Steve in studio to give us Scuba. Steve suggests we don't know the segment.
Starting point is 00:54:46 Scoobes Steve, what are we doing? So I've been reflecting on life a lot more lately. I have kids. One of them is about to go into kindergarten. I was like, God, time has passed so quickly. So many things have gone on in my life. And there's things that I haven't done yet. And what if I were to die tomorrow? What would I regret that I haven't accomplished or
Starting point is 00:55:02 I haven't done. So I guess I'll give you time to think about what you would do. But for me, I've always wanted to go to the Mall of America in Minnesota and go to the theme park, the Nickelodeon theme park. I've been putting it off for like 15 years and I need to do it. That's funny that that's what it is. It's so exactly. That's such a random.
Starting point is 00:55:20 Yeah, I like it. So one thing, I like it. One thing, what's the one thing that you still want? It's basically bucket list, but it's one thing you want to do. Anything. Yours is hilarious. and I like it. And I want to do it before the end of the year.
Starting point is 00:55:34 So maybe something, maybe something we also try to do. I got to go. Okay, so we could probably think that out of it. I didn't even know there was a theme park. It's huge. Inside the mall, Nickelodeon. It's so amazing. Roller coasters and everything.
Starting point is 00:55:46 It's so cool. We've been right, Mike? It's huge. You guys have been there? Oh, wow. He lit up. Did you guys go to the theme park? We went, we looked at it.
Starting point is 00:55:54 I don't want to ride a... You just looked at it? How do you go there and just look at it? Yeah, dude? We just saw the marriage. Tyler Moore statue too. We were in Minneapolis for something, huh? Like a show or something? I don't know. Cool. But it is cool.
Starting point is 00:56:08 The mall's massive, man. 500 stores? It's amazing. Biggest mall in the world. Okay. What's the one thing you want to do? Trivial or not, Eddie? I want to go on a voyage. I want to go on a sailboat from some point A to point B, like whether it's Florida to Cuba. Ocean.
Starting point is 00:56:24 Ocean sailboat voyage. Why a sailboat? That seems like a lot of work. That's why. Like just the experience of like, all right, pull the sail. storm coming in, lower it, like all that. I want that experience. That seems like a death trap. Do you want to do it or do you want to just be a part of somebody else doing it as you're on the boat?
Starting point is 00:56:40 Oh, no, no. We need a captain. I don't know. I don't know how to do that. Okay, but would you want to be a part of the crew? Absolutely. Really? That's cool?
Starting point is 00:56:47 Five-man crew, sail to South America, something. But it doesn't have to be like a super long? No, I'd say like a week. Maybe, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. Something like that. Sal bow. That's cool.
Starting point is 00:56:58 How cool would that be? For me, not cool, but that's cool that's what you want to do. That doesn't interesting. And I want to do it by the end of the year. Oh, wow. Oh, my God. Okay. Lunchbox.
Starting point is 00:57:10 What's one thing you want to do? Be on Survivor. Like, I mean, just to get out there and challenge myself and some of those daily challenges and to see how good if I could lie to those people and backstab. That's where he goes. All the negative. Yeah. And, like, really find, like, you really test yourself without food and without water.
Starting point is 00:57:30 And, I mean, just. in the elements and getting along with crazy strangers in this sleep-deprived world where I wouldn't be able to take a nap every day and it would just be awesome. I feel like we could create this environment for him. And I want to do that by the end of the year. Yeah. Why don't you just go apply? I would, but I don't know.
Starting point is 00:57:51 Because the show's not going to be around forever. No, it's good. Well, I know that. But here's the problem is I'd have to get off work. And so, I mean, we'd have to negotiate me getting off work. You know what I'm saying? We got no problem with it. Head on.
Starting point is 00:58:03 Hmm. I thought you have said before. Amy, stop. He just gave me permission. Stop. This is good. I like this. Yeah, I don't give me crap.
Starting point is 00:58:11 Go do it. If you want to do it, go do it. Dude, I'll be back in 30 days. It's longer than that. No, it's 26 days. No, to do that, but there's way more involved. Okay. Well, I'll be back in 50 days.
Starting point is 00:58:21 You're leaving right now? He just leaves without even. Wait, what? He walked out. Wait, no, dude, I don't think you understand where he's like. But I think you should definitely explore that process. That's what I'm talking about. I think they would, who cares, just go do it.
Starting point is 00:58:35 No, what are you going to say? You'd think they'd what? I think if they gave any pushback, I would just be like, no, he's fine. That's what I'm talking about. It would just be from the company, not from me. But he'd have to, like, get accepted to the show, though, right? Oh, there's a lot of those. Yeah, yeah, there's a lot of steps, man.
Starting point is 00:58:48 But I'm saying from here, I would just be like, screw it. If you want to do it, go do it. Wow. Okay. Because I don't think he's pursued those other steps. I know he just doesn't pursue it because he's making excuses, like he does everything else. Oh. Wrong.
Starting point is 00:58:58 You don't think I pursued real world all the freaking times? I didn't know you then. But you say I didn't pursue stuff. I'm talking about here now. That's what I'm saying. Survivor became later because I didn't watch until season 10. Yeah, but she's saying because of the job. I'm saying if you want to go be on Survivor, go be on Survivor.
Starting point is 00:59:14 But then I really, like I thought about, okay, you know, that'd be fun to be on. And then my aunt and uncle are the ones that got me into Survivor. Okay? And then my uncle passed away of a heart attack. He went out to get the newspaper and he clashed in the front yard and died. Is this part of your pitch? No. And I thought about it.
Starting point is 00:59:31 It's not funny. No. It's not funny, but it comes out of nowhere and he makes up so many lies. And we don't know if it's true. Like how many women have you been with? Over 100. Right. So he just says stuff.
Starting point is 00:59:42 No, it was my uncle Mike. And I had always thought about what they used to have family visitors. Like, they'd bring them out to the island. You know, if you make it to a certain, I was like, who would I bring? And I was like, I'd bring my aunt Judy, my uncle Mike if my wife couldn't come because of the kids. And then when he died, I was like, dang, I'm putting this off. and like I started thinking about it really and I talked about it with my wife
Starting point is 01:00:01 and she's like if you got on a you could go I could figure out the way to handle the kids and so yeah so I really started thinking about it in the last few years. I've never heard Uncle Mike I'm glad you're telling us about him but you had an animal once eat your a shark ate the paddle boat
Starting point is 01:00:15 took a bite right just like no there's just a lot of this we don't know it's hard to get through the camouflage to see what's real so then go do it go apply figure out what the deal is and go apply all right I'll hit them up right now I don't know how you're going to also hit them up right now.
Starting point is 01:00:29 But if you want to do it, you should do it. If your wife's cool with all your kids, I'm cool, I'll go to the bosses and be like, I said it's fine. Wow. What? I'm just very curious. Everybody can't leave for a reality show at once in a now. Where do I apply? I think this is very cool of you, but why the change?
Starting point is 01:00:48 Because I don't give a crap. Everybody's just go do your thing. But this is like. Amy, why are you trying to talk about it? I'm not talking out of it. He's already said it. It's good. I'm just asking what.
Starting point is 01:00:56 He can always reverse decision. if you reverse pivot. Who knows where I'm going to be in six months or nine months or a year? So I don't want you guys to hold anything back. Oh, you could be on the island with me? Where are you going, man? I didn't say anything. I just saying generally we don't know where everybody's going to be in life.
Starting point is 01:01:11 Yeah, yeah. So who knows? And I don't want you guys to be holding anything up. I got it. Scuba. You go to Minnesota today. Everybody start pursuing things. I'm getting a sailboat.
Starting point is 01:01:24 Now. Amy? Alaskan cruise. that's cool that's doable that's i mean that was my mom's bucket list so which she didn't get to do it so now i don't think it would have ever been my bucket list but it is now because you know we waited too long she we literally are going to take her on there sick like in the final days and her doctor was like you don't think they're being on a boat for nine days that far away is gonna be good and luckily we didn't but she wanted to go the whole year before and we kept putting it off because she kept
Starting point is 01:01:53 thinking i'm gonna get better i'm gonna get better i'm gonna get better and then she never got better. So it's like, don't put it off. Scoba, go to the mall. Mall of America, yes. Go to the mall. Yeah. Ray, you? Yeah, mine is traveling as well, Bali. It's above Australia, so it's tough to get to. You can't
Starting point is 01:02:08 do it in a week. And my wife... What do you mean, you can't do it in a week? You can't get there in a week? I mean, it's kind of like a Hawaii flight, let's be real. Yeah, but I've been to Hawaii. I've been to Hawaii back in three days. Maybe you can do it then. I've been to Australia. You can get there. It takes a day, but you get there. But my wife's all about
Starting point is 01:02:23 all-inclusive because you feel safe and secure in those places. Bali really isn't that. So it's almost it would almost be a one-man mission. I just go out there solo and I just learn how to live out there for a little while. I don't think that's accurate. I think you can go to Bali and it be pretty normal and amazing. Expensive, yes,
Starting point is 01:02:39 but it has nothing to do with it that I think yes, it'll be expensive because the flight itself is going to be very expensive. I've just had so many friends. It's not Vietnam in the 70s, man. He gets shut down. Or the Mall of America on Black Friday, you know? It's just I think you have a, I think people, I never
Starting point is 01:02:55 ever been there. I wouldn't be able to point to it on a map, but I think it's like a luxury place. But it's cheap, though. People say, oh, you get a drink for a dollar. You can get a coconut for two dollars. Fresh fruit. A coconut for two bucks. That's the deal. We are all so warped. Morgan.
Starting point is 01:03:13 Get married. Yeah. Mine's kind of like Morgans. Not married, but like, I have a kid. But I'd say the time I'm like, I don't know. I'm a kid right now. But it's like, I'm going to be Alpetino. No, but Morgan would get married today.
Starting point is 01:03:27 I mean, if I could get married this year, that'd be awesome. But we already know she's going to get married by the end of the year. No, we're not going to meet her husband. So you don't even have to worry about that. That stress is over. You don't have to worry about it. The psychic toll you need to quit stressing about it. It's happening.
Starting point is 01:03:40 Guaranteed. I don't know about guaranteed, but. No, Morgan believes. I want to get married, you know, by the end of the year. That'd be cool. Okay, so meet him and get married. Well, that's quick. By the end of the year.
Starting point is 01:03:50 Amy did that. And we're not having a kid right now. There's no kid. I was like, is this an announcement? No, no, no, no. I definitely wouldn't say, I set the whole bit up for that. No, no, not at all. But it's like, well, no, I, you know.
Starting point is 01:04:01 So, but apparently there's a right time. Is there? I don't know that one. Yeah. Tell me, please. I'm always told there's an exact right time. And then that's when you should do it. Why'd you guys go, ugh?
Starting point is 01:04:12 Because there is no right time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, and let's go to Mike D. Mike D. What is your thing? I want to live in a school. Ever since I was a kid, I thought it would be awesome to, like, get a school building, convert into it. I live in a schoolhouse.
Starting point is 01:04:25 There was that building that school that went out for sale. And Michael was like, I'd love to buy that school and just live in it. I go on Zillow all the time and look at schoolhouse. Like an old school? Yeah. There's a guy on TikTok converted to one. It looks amazing. You do have a gym in there, a basketball gym.
Starting point is 01:04:37 That's pretty cool. You got a theater. Yeah. Like, it feels weird at first when he says it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But they make square pizzas back there, bro. That's right. Oh, he means like, like modern day type schools or like I'm picturing an old and back in the day schoolhouse.
Starting point is 01:04:51 Well, they still had cafeterias. I would think modern. day. Yeah. Yeah, with all the rooms. Oh, wow, that's a lot of square footage. It is, yeah. Exactly. That might be the weirdest fantasy I've ever heard. Track, you have a track of football field? We didn't say fantasy. We said what he wants to do before he dies.
Starting point is 01:05:07 I never, like, you heard schoolhouse went to fantasy. I think we need to check your stuff. I am like, I have never heard anybody say they want to live in a schoolhouse. So the fact you ever came up with that idea is it before on the show. It's baffling. Exactly, which is weird. No other kid I'd never known has ever said. We all speak incorrectly, but we're not so dominant about how right we are about it.
Starting point is 01:05:34 I've just never heard that. Scooby-See, thank you for this segment. You're welcome, no problem. Everybody, we've all stated it. Now go make it happen. All right. By the end of the year. Here's Amy's pile of stories.
Starting point is 01:05:46 Weaponized incompetence. Are you familiar? Let me think about this. Weaponized incompetence. That would mean I'm going to. to use it as a... If I don't... Yeah, I do it.
Starting point is 01:05:58 Yeah. I probably act like I can't do stuff, so I don't have to do it anymore. Is that what that is? That's messed up. Like, an example would be, like, Caitlin says... Moving close to the... From the washer to the dryer and I drop stuff and wet stuff on the floor. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:06:11 Or colorblind stuff, because I'm really bad colorblind. Right. With clothes, oh, it's all laundry. I hate... Yeah. Eat laundry. No one loves it. No, we all...
Starting point is 01:06:22 I love laundry. Laundry. I can't tell what colors what. I don't know the darks from the me dude. Oh, yeah. Yep, that's me. I saw, uh, bleep this out from my whole watch. You can't hear this.
Starting point is 01:06:31 I saw a wife post that her husband added bleach to the load. And then when she was like, what in the world? He goes, well, I guess now you know I can't do laundry. I felt that. And, but you ruin a whole load. Right. That's okay. You know what that's called?
Starting point is 01:06:46 Weaponized. No. Collateral damage. Oh, yeah. You lost the clothes, but they didn't, they didn't do anything wrong, but that's collateral. damage in the overall. Yeah, go ahead. So all the people sharing were women because it's the men
Starting point is 01:07:00 that are doing this. Yeah, like a one. Because we're the dumb ones to, we get caught. You guys are smart and you're not getting caught doing it. One husband said, I don't know where to put the dishes away. It's so confusing. Meanwhile, he runs a warehouse and knows where every part is and inventory
Starting point is 01:07:16 is organized perfectly. No, I felt that, buddy. I'll get your back. Another. It's the dishwasher was supposed to be made for big bowls. and plates on bottom and then glasses on top. But now all of a sudden you're supposed to just like find little spots where they all fit. And sometimes you can put bowls on. And it just, I don't like that.
Starting point is 01:07:34 So I don't do it. Good for you. It's hard. It's hard. I get confused. And then my performance at work goes down because I'm so worried about it. And then all of a sudden can't pay rent. Well, that's the thing.
Starting point is 01:07:46 We don't rent. You can't. That's what I mean, this is not what happened in my marriage at all. like why it ended by any means. Wait, what? I used to share with y'all all the time that Ben could not close drawers. That's why you divorced him? No.
Starting point is 01:08:02 But I was like, you, he flies an airplane. It's not that. But we can be good at some things and not good at others. Push your drawer in. I'm wildly skilled at certain performance aspects, but in some parts of my personal life, I'm a disaster. And you would think, wait, they're kind of connect. They're not.
Starting point is 01:08:18 One person said a divorce did happen because the, Husband said, look, I'm the type of person that will purposefully mess up so that they won't ask me to do it again. Amen. I think some of you guys do that in this show too. All right. What else? Okay. I have weird hacks for sleeping in this summer heat.
Starting point is 01:08:35 Okay. The first one is freezing your pajamas. But if it's hot, why are you wearing pajamas? Oh, because they say don't sleep naked. That's a common... Why don't sleep naked either? That hurts me. I like pin things down.
Starting point is 01:08:47 But I'm saying you can sleep in underwear. Well, it says if you sweat, it collects on your skin. and it's better to have it absorbed by clothes. So wear something loose fitting in life that's made of natural fibers like cotton. Yeah, here's the hat. Don't wear full-body pajamas like Little House in the Prairie. We don't have to wear flannel, but like you can have on like a little shirt, shorts, whatever. But they say if you put your pajamas in a plastic bag, toss them in the freezer.
Starting point is 01:09:12 You can do the same thing. And how do you get in them if they're frozen like ice? They're just hard. Yeah, that's kind of cold. That's if you wet them and put them in the freezer. Well, that's what I did. I took your advice and that's what I did. No, if you just put them in a bag and put them in the freezer and your pillow,
Starting point is 01:09:22 case too when you pull them out it's going to feel really good when you get in bed i'm never gonna put my stuff in the fridge or freezer my pillowcases go ahead okay don't share covers if you sleep with the significant other think about using separate blankets because it keeps their body heat away from you i don't think that would go very well okay what else lunchbox does that yeah but he sweats he has like some sort of like full body diarrhea every night in his bed and the fight well i used to have full body diarrhea in my bed so gross you don't anymore it doesn't happen anymore i mean i still sweat every once in a while but not Back then it was like I was running five miles and I'd have to
Starting point is 01:09:55 Put a towel down I wonder what was really wrong with you Was it? Tuberculosis When you had yeah Because once I started taking the pills Stopped immediately Birth control pills
Starting point is 01:10:05 No No TB pills man It takes one every day for nine months The final tip is leave your hair Damp take a shower before bed Don't dry your hair And you won't be as hot That's dumb
Starting point is 01:10:15 I didn't make these up It's like put ice under your armpits before you fall asleep Yeah all these are kind of It's all dumb Turn the air down. How about that? Pay a little more.
Starting point is 01:10:23 Pay slightly more on your electric bill. All right, what else? Okay. Garth Brooks played this show in Texas. No, we did it. Yeah, I was going to get there. I know. Wait, what are you guys talking about?
Starting point is 01:10:34 I wouldn't do it. It's just political. I wouldn't do it. But you don't need to say the story because I thought. It's just, I don't want to be yelling at us because it's political. You can do it. Fine. Wait, we're on.
Starting point is 01:10:43 Go. Well, I just think that it's like, you know, oh, you know, being competent. Like, you're running a state, right? The governor of Texas. Texas reposted the thing where it's like Garth Brooks boot off stage at Cowboy Fest or something. The 123rd annual Texas country jamboree. Because Garth Brooks was like, we're going to have all the beers at my place. I don't care about Bud Light or what anyone's little deal is.
Starting point is 01:11:05 We're all inclusive. I don't care who you are. We love you. Right? Yeah. And so like people get upset about that. So someone did a parody, like acting like Garth Brooks got boot off. And the governor of Texas, Greg Abbott posted it like, ha-ha.
Starting point is 01:11:16 It didn't happen. It was fake. Garth Brooks is the most loved guy ever. He's the best guy. And so it was all fake, but the governor of Texas, Greg Abbott posted it like it was real. And everybody's like, you're a governor. And I agree. This is not political, but people will take it as political.
Starting point is 01:11:31 And you ain't coming to this show for politics and we ain't given it to you. But I did see that. And what are you doing? I don't care what side you're on. It's just like, yes, no, that. I mean, because the town listed where this fake jamboree was, the jamboree is not even real, but the town listed isn't even a real town in Texas. It's all fake.
Starting point is 01:11:47 The whole thing. It shows you that people running these. the big offices, they don't even look. They're just like, they're just slapping crap together. And it was a quote retweet. And then, well, you're the governor. Why does that even matter? Why are you worried about that?
Starting point is 01:11:59 First of all, it's first of all, who cares? What are you trying to prove? I think he wanted to say these words, go woke, go broke. That is rhyme. That's kind of fun to say, like it says rhyme. It is kind of fun to say anything rhyming. Yeah. I don't know, man.
Starting point is 01:12:13 It's just, it's the whole culture online where I have to stay off of the for you page on Twitter. I just look at my following because that's all it is is people screaming at each other. It's even worse. But okay. Well, Ray, would you talk to Garth about that or no? Definitely not. No. That's awkward.
Starting point is 01:12:28 Garth is the greatest. He's like the nicest, most awesome dude. And that's all. And it didn't happen in the governor. And that situation was an idiot. And it didn't matter what side he's on. You post an article from the onion and act like it's real. You're an idiot.
Starting point is 01:12:43 And I think I've done that too before at one point in my life. I think we all have and we've all been an idiot at one point. All right. Is that it? I made me. That's my file. That was Amy's pile of stories It's time for the good news
Starting point is 01:12:54 Last week a lady named Dana Was driving home after visiting her mother-in-law She's driving along She's a garage on fire in Grand Junction Colorado Black Smoke So she pulled in Not super close to the house but close enough And it's like, hello
Starting point is 01:13:12 Nobody yelled back But then she heard animals barking So she's like, wait She walks closer and she sees as a German shepherd in the garage. And so she's like, oh, man, somehow we got to get this dog out of here. It started to get hotter. There were little pops from in the garage, too.
Starting point is 01:13:31 There was a propane tank in there. Oh, yeah. That's like a movie. Like it gets closer to the propane tank. So that's what happened. They kind of went in, knocked it open, went in and saved the dog. The building is a complete loss, but the dog is alive. The people got their dog back, and they were a mess because they're so happy that their dog was saved.
Starting point is 01:13:49 But yeah, the building was completely destroyed, but the dog is safe. And they said the building could be replaced since the dog couldn't. But that's her pulling over because she saw a fire. Wow. And then went in and actually, if there's fire getting near a propane tank, I don't know how close I'm going. It's going to blow up. I don't know. I'm going to be Eddie in there.
Starting point is 01:14:04 And I'm like, Eddie, hey, buddy. Whoa, whoa, whoa. There's a propane tag. What do you mean to do here? Good luck. Remember that time you saw you? Man, man, I thought I was going to be a hero, dude. I mean, I knocked on doors.
Starting point is 01:14:15 Nobody was answering. I'm like, oh my gosh, that barn's on fire. it was a tobacco smokehouse. Hey, remember that time you set your house on fire? It wasn't me. Oh, yeah. Wait, what? The boys I had over in junior high.
Starting point is 01:14:28 My mom was out of town. Oh, they threw something on the roof, right? Yeah, a cigarette or something. It was a really hot summer day in Texas, and, yeah, our wooden shingle. It just caught it on fire. And I didn't, for whatever reason, it was in the Austin American Statesman that I was in the attic playing with matches. I was not. Idiots.
Starting point is 01:14:47 irresponsible, journal. But I mean, I guess maybe that's what mainstream media. That's libel. Saying other than like, well, I have, my mom is out of town and I had friends over. I wasn't supposed to and they threw a cigarette on the roof. Do you have any fire stories?
Starting point is 01:14:57 Oh, yeah, a lot. No, no, no. I know your brother. Yeah, my brother burned two and a half acres of the woods, playing with old lighters and socks. I used to go down to the ditch and we would burn things and, you know, those big bags of leaves.
Starting point is 01:15:10 We took one of those down there and we were burning them under the street, like the tunnel and smokes billowing out of the tunnel. And my buddy Scott was like, Let's just throw the whole bag on there. And we threw the whole bag. And I mean, it was smoke was, all of a sudden I hear, hey, there was the fire department. They were up there.
Starting point is 01:15:25 And I looked at Aaron and Ford and Scott and said, boys, we got to go. Put our hoodies up, ran straight into the woods. Scott ran the other way. So they never saw Scott. They tracked us down. They caught you? They went around knocking door to door and talking to neighbors. Who are the people that makes trouble in the neighborhood?
Starting point is 01:15:43 And they called my house, and I happened to answer. You were one of the people that came to mine. it was trouble. 100% little white criminals. They knew we had a reputation. And the fire department called my house and I happened to answer the phone. I was like, no, I wasn't down there.
Starting point is 01:15:56 Cool. All right, bye. Thought I got away with it. They called back the next day. Got a hold of my dad. And then I, the name was- What happened though?
Starting point is 01:16:05 With your dad? He whoop you? No. He was just like, did you do that? And I was like, yeah, but it's a controlled fire, man. He was like, okay,
Starting point is 01:16:10 don't be an idiot. And then the neighbors across the street, we shot like bottle rockets into their garage. And we didn't know, and we left. And I guess they had laundry sitting out in front of the washer and dryer. And it had caught on fire. And luckily, they had gone out and they smelt it. And they went out there and put it out before it caught the whole house on fire.
Starting point is 01:16:31 Yeah, yeah, it was bad. We did some. Did they know you did it? Yeah, when I came riding back from the baseball card shop, my mom was standing in the front yard with her. You say it's controlled bottle rocket. And I was like, you know, you're going to burn our house down. And my mom was not happy. She goes, wait until your father gets home.
Starting point is 01:16:47 And then what'd he say? Grounded for a week, but then it turns into like grounded for an hour. You know. There you go. We played fire a lot, man. I don't know that I think about it. Hey, that's what it's all about right there. That was tell me something good.
Starting point is 01:17:01 Simple math. Isn't math different for kids now than we had math when you, is there like a new math? It's how they do it and it's very strange. You don't get different answers. Like two plus two, two, still four. Yeah, that's the same. It's just how you get there. How do you get there?
Starting point is 01:17:14 Oh, well, the two plus two. I'm talking about the other stuff. the more complicated. Yeah, yeah. Like, oh, you don't know either. No. It's like these smart people came and changed it, and now they name it after them,
Starting point is 01:17:24 and it's like the so-and-so theorem. What's crazy is I was just talking to a teacher friend about this the other day. For her kid, she teaches it a different way. And so for her kid, she taught the kid her way because she's like, my way's so much better. But then because the kid, when they took the test, used their mom's way,
Starting point is 01:17:41 they got the answer wrong, even though they got the same answer. Because they showed their work and the work wasn't it? Yes. But how do you get, I just don't understand because I don't have kids, but what age does the math, Amy, start to get different? Oh, I feel like my kids might be a little bit different because I got them older and they were behind, but I would guess like middle school.
Starting point is 01:18:03 Yeah, middle school, sixth grade. Multiification? It's more of the fraction, though, I don't know what, I mean, I'm not good at math. What's it called? Division. No, when you have to do a formula and plug it in, the X and the Y's. Algebra. Algebra.
Starting point is 01:18:16 Oh, that's when it gets crazy. And they've changed how to do it. Yes. Eight times eight, Eddie? 64. Did I get that? Nine times six lunchbox? Nine times six, 54.
Starting point is 01:18:30 He's pretty good at it. He's really good amount. Eddie struggles with the multiplication tables. I can get all the nines, though, and I just taught my son this trick. Give me a nine. Any nine. No, because you just said you can get all the nines. Yeah, and it's a trick with your hands.
Starting point is 01:18:42 Okay, cool. Then I'm not going to do that. 99 times nine. No, no, it's got to be it through 10. Pull up all those hands. Use all of our hands. Here's all of our hands too. Feel free to go out of it.
Starting point is 01:18:50 You need to borrow your hands. Seven times six, Eddie? 42. Okay. Take a second, what you got there? I had to do the six times five and then add another one. I'm like going to be funny because I have to do months on my fingers. January, February, March, April, May, June, July, July, August, September, October, November, December, December.
Starting point is 01:19:07 I have to do those 12 to know what number to put down. Yeah, that's tough. That's, that for me is tough. All right, let's go to the corny. Amy, ready? Ready? The morning corny. Did you hear about the French man who always wears a denim coat?
Starting point is 01:19:23 No. His name is Jean Jacquesette. That was the morning corny. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what I'm saying. Yep, that's me, Cliver Taylor the 4th. You might have seen the skits, the reactions, my journey from basketball to college football, or my career in sports media.

Starting point is 01:21:26 Woo. My dad gave me the best advice ever. I went and had lunch with them one day. And I was like, and Dad, I think I want to really give this a shot. I don't know what that means, but I just know the groundlings. I'm working my way up through and I know it's a place that come look for up and coming talent. He said, if it was based solely on talent, I wouldn't worry about you, which is really sweet. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:21:48 He goes, but there's so much luck involved. And he's like, just give it a shot. He goes, but if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit. If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration. It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat. Just hang in there. Yeah, it would not be.
Starting point is 01:22:12 Right, it wouldn't be that. There's a lot of luck. Listen to Thanks Dad on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. We all put a movie into the old Arkansas helmet here. We drew it out, and it was Eddie's movie, The Rope. Just Rope. Not The Rope. How did you come across this?
Starting point is 01:22:30 Because, again, it's from the 40s. Yeah, I probably saw this movie for the first time. I would say maybe 15 years ago. It was on Turner Classic Movies. I just sat down and watched it. I'm like, this is pretty amazing. Did you watch it from the very beginning or did you just come into it? I'd watch it from the very beginning.
Starting point is 01:22:43 It just started. So I watched the whole movie. And I've probably seen it five times since then. You went and rewatch it? Absolutely. Spoiler. But it's from the 40s, so we're just going to let everybody know. It's a spoiler alert.
Starting point is 01:22:56 But you had a week to watch it. It was only like an hour and 10, hour and 15 minutes, which was good. I thought about that for you guys, because I didn't want to take a lot of your time. And can I please say something before you guys review this? It's already been reviewed. I just want to say that I truly, truly love this movie. There's a punishment if we think you're messing with this. Right.
Starting point is 01:23:11 And there's no way I'm messing with you guys. I thought that this would be a treat for you guys to just go on with your lives with this movie. have you experienced this movie in your life? I think you'd love it. So here we go. Watch it on Amazon, we ought to pay for the stupid thing. Although it was on Turner Classic movies,
Starting point is 01:23:26 but we didn't know until like the last minute. Yeah, luckily I got it for $1.47. Yeah. I don't know it was on sale. When I went there, it had prices slashed. Where did you go? You had you went there? Amazon.
Starting point is 01:23:37 Really? Yeah. Maybe so many people bought it eight. They were like, we should really happen. They're like, wow, we're seeing an uptick in the 48 movie. Okay. Well, a rope. Come on.
Starting point is 01:23:47 Was color added later? No, no, no, no, no. No, that's the way it was shot. I can't believe it was in color to begin with. Yeah, man, I think there was color back then. My wife kept going, this is a high school production, because I made her watch it. She was like, this is a high school production. Stop. This is Alfred Hitchcock, man. He's like a well-known direct-no. No, I know, but it's also in the 40s.
Starting point is 01:24:02 So everything looks a bit dated. Okay. Apparently, for what he was doing at that time, it was advanced. It was like a one-shot situation. That's right. Hitchcock decided that Rope would be his very first ever color picture. Boom! That's really cool. Okay, here we go.
Starting point is 01:24:17 The first review. I enjoyed all 80 minutes of rope and think it's a fine piece of film history. I love the movie wasted no time getting right to the murder and allowing for the tension to build. Thanks Eddie for allowing us to uncover this hidden gem from Alfred Hitchcock. You had to write this. Yes, it had to be from you.
Starting point is 01:24:30 That is not me. I was not me. I promise. I promise. Is that you? Thanks to Eddie for allowing us to uncover this hidden gym. Thanks, bones. Bones, you wrote that.
Starting point is 01:24:41 I just swear to you. No one has to claim it. I was waiting for the punch line where it's like acting like you like it and then it's like, and then I wish I. I had a rope for myself. Stop.
Starting point is 01:24:50 Stop. Stop. Oh, Mike. Oh, course. Movie Mike. You're so welcome. Mike, what would you grade it? If you're grading it then?
Starting point is 01:24:58 I gave it a four out of five. I thought it was a really good movie. I enjoyed the whole thing. No, stop. Stop. Guys, that's awesome. Okay. That's a true film critic right there.
Starting point is 01:25:07 He knows what you're trying that. Definitely. I should have put that together. Yep. The next one. When I say this movie was physically painful to watch, and that's not an exaggeration, my eyes were burning, trying to stay interested in this uneventful plot line.
Starting point is 01:25:17 scene selection and it was lazy the character development was terrible and the suspense hovered around non-existence so that's a negative eyes were burning must have been drinking his name I mean this is hardcore but scene selection he's not going to say
Starting point is 01:25:32 scene selection I feel like maybe he googled like how to talk about a movie eyes were burning because you didn't nap I go scuba is this scuba no that's not my room who is this one oh it's Ray eyes were burning
Starting point is 01:25:47 You hated it? Yeah, it was a Friday night. My wife went to bed. She lasted five minutes, and it was just painful trying to stay awake, honestly. What are you talking about? Let's average out the score, so you give it a four. Ray, what did you give it? One and a half, David's out of five.
Starting point is 01:26:00 One and a half, Davids. R-I-P. I like it. I like it. The next one. We're talking about reviewing the movie Rope that Eddie made us watch from the 40s. What in the world did I just watch? It was like a twisted take-on clue. I'm confused why this is a good movie for Eddie.
Starting point is 01:26:14 For an old movie, it wasn't bad. I had to get used to the way they talk. I definitely won't be watching it again. That's not terrible. This is a nice negative review. It's like something Morgan would say. Like she wants to be nice, but also say she didn't like it. But in a cordial way.
Starting point is 01:26:29 Right. Morgan? Yeah, that's me. But you liked it. I didn't like it. I genuinely don't understand why you think this is a good movie. Like, it's twisted. It's awesome.
Starting point is 01:26:40 So yours was about the theme more than it was. Psychological theme. So you don't like. guys saw. Yeah, not a fan. Okay. What would you give it? I gave it two out of five books. Two. Okay. Books.
Starting point is 01:26:54 But it's based on a true story. What? Yeah. What? Is it really? Yeah. Yeah. It's super twisted. That's what I read. Like that happened? Yeah, it's based on something similar. Hold it. We'll get to it. Okay. Given this movie was released in 1948 and is rated PG, you have to review it with that mindset. That being said, wow, wonderful film that made the edge of my seat. Every time the chest was in play, the end, once it all came to
Starting point is 01:27:16 made the previous 60 minutes worth it. Great film. This is, that's a great review. Is that Scuba? I gave it three out of five chums, I believe. Three. Yeah, that's good. Oh man, I would give it more than that, Scuba.
Starting point is 01:27:29 Okay. This movie is super slow and hard to keep your eyes open. The dialogue felt like it was from the 40s, and there was only one entertaining, funny conversation in the entire movie. If you haven't seen it, I don't think you need to waste your time. I don't waste your time with his review. It has to, that has to be lunchbox.
Starting point is 01:27:44 That was me. Yeah. I fell asleep the first time. had to sit up the next day and watch it. Toothpicks in the eyes almost. No, I fell asleep at the front of the house. I got to go to bed. So then I watch it the next day and it's in the afternoon.
Starting point is 01:27:54 My wife's like, wake up, wake up. I'm like, you're right. So I stood up for a little bit of the movie to try to stay awake. Stop. Guys, it was. You stood up. Yes. That's like when you're sleepy driving, you get out and run around the car.
Starting point is 01:28:06 That's what you just did. That's funny. It was so slow. And Eddie complains about movies. That one stayed in one room the entire time. I was, oh. That's what was impressive. about it. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:28:18 I don't seem, oh, wait. The dialogue was brutal. Got it, got it. I gave it one and a half. It took everything in my power not to fall asleep. Stop. Another one. But it got more interesting. The whole movie had a pretty creepy vibe. The storyline and acting were mediocre at best. Kind of like lunchbox is acting. That's Abby. That's Abby. That's
Starting point is 01:28:34 Abby. That's funny. She takes a shot at lunchbox and hers. Abby, what do you give it? Two and a half out of five ropes. Okay. I watched it while I potted. That's Amy. That's Amy for sure. I watched it while I potted plants because I didn't want to waste any time on this movie. Even though I was multitasking, the story was not hard to keep up with because the entire thing took place in one room. That being said, I was actually entertained and it wasn't totally terrible.
Starting point is 01:28:56 Okay, Amy. Yeah, I mean, I feel like I consumed it like an audiobook and it was pretty good. This has got to be Eddie's. Did you write one? No, I don't know. What did you got? I don't know. The answer is you, as or no, you know if you were.
Starting point is 01:29:09 It was amazing. I feel terrible for giving Eddie a hard time about watching this movie, a well-written movie that had me at the edge of my seat the entire time, a cinematic masterpiece. Wow, that's a good review. Does anyone want to commit to... Who wrote that? Okay, idiot. All right, I did. Okay, and here's mine, because I'm the only one left.
Starting point is 01:29:28 Come on, man. I turned it on and then turned it off, though, and I will tell you. I watched the first 15, 20 minutes, and it was like, I just got to do this tomorrow because I'm not in the mood or in the space to do this, because it was just, it was like watching, again, eighth graders for a minute, because that's just the style then. I know. I said, revolutionary for the 40s, possibly the black mirror of its day.
Starting point is 01:29:50 Dang, day, that's cool. And you love black mirror. But because it was so dated, it was hard for me to really enjoy the story. They could actually remake it in today's current time, but this time feed the partygoers, the dead person. That's right. For the perfect crime. Bones. I honestly thought that that when they were talking about the chicken or whatever or something I thought that they.
Starting point is 01:30:07 You can't do that in the 40s. So I'm going to give it two and a half out of five. I wouldn't watch it because it was so old and I didn't really enjoy it, but I did enjoy the idea of it. and how groundbreaking it was then, revolutionary then. Because I think there's some way I watch Black Mirror now, and I'm like, oh, I can't believe. That had to be how people are watching that then, going, oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:30:24 This is crazy. This is crazy. It's the perfect crime. How twisted is this? See, I didn't think of it as that angle. I thought of it as all the stuff I've seen, you know, in my lifetime. And I'm like, Jesus is so. Yeah, because you're one level.
Starting point is 01:30:34 You know what? Bones is like, you know, next level thinking. Only because you think I agreed with you. No, no, no. You look at stuff and you're like, wow, this is really cool because it was revolutionary. I think at the time people were blown away by it. and then I started to think, how could we make this current? And it's a similar thing because they wanted to commit the perfect crime.
Starting point is 01:30:51 And so they killed the dude and they put him in a box and they had dinner party around the box. Hey, spoiler alert. We said that. But I think now they could kind of do the same thing. They can murder someone, have everybody come over. But then they're feeding them the meal. Oh, yeah, dude. The meal is actually from his body.
Starting point is 01:31:04 It's like his parents and stuff. And they're looking for it. But that's even more twisted. Yeah. Hey, every single time, like something would happen would you get like, oh, my gosh, they're going to get busted. Oh, my gosh, they're going to get busted. No, I knew the whole time they were going to get busted. Oh.
Starting point is 01:31:16 And then Jimmy Stewart comes in. Yeah, yeah. Why. I ought to. Okay, Eddie, thank you. Hey, you guys are so welcome. Mike. Amy, what did you give it?
Starting point is 01:31:27 Four? Three and a half. Three and a half. Nice. If we average it all out here, Eddie, as long as it's not a two or below, you're fine and you're off the punishment wheel. So, what do we have? There are some ones in there. 2.6.
Starting point is 01:31:40 Hey, thank you. Thank you. And all the listeners, too, that, like, rented it and watched it. watched it, like, I hope you enjoyed it. Really. Because from the bottom of my heart, I really try to pick a movie that I think all you guys would really enjoy. You survived. Yes. We'll draw another movie soon.
Starting point is 01:31:57 Hey, everybody, let's go over and do the news. Bobby's Big. Stories. Panama City Beach declared the most dangerous beach in America. Oh. After three tourists died in the Gulf of Mexico over the weekend, Panama City Beach in Florida is now the deadliest. Seven people have died at the beach in the last nine days.
Starting point is 01:32:14 And then also, I mean, the rip currents. I've been crazy right now. Yesterday, and I knew him a little bit, but he played quarterback at Arkansas. I played in the NFL for seven years. His name was Ryan Mallet. He drowned because a rip current pulled him under. Yeah, he coach, high school coach in Arkansas. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 01:32:32 We're super sad. But Eddie now we're just talking about this. And when it's like most dangerous, you think just crime only. Yeah, I was thinking shark attacks maybe too. Oh, I didn't think shark attacks. I literally thought like robbing and guns, but it's also rip currents. Drownings. Yep.
Starting point is 01:32:49 There have already been 60 surf zone deaths at beaches in the U.S. this year, close to 69 total deaths in all of last year. So it's almost to that point. Wow. I wonder what's up. Like what's happening, you know, with the climate, the weather, the season. It's so different. But yeah, really tragic. The Ryan Mallet story yesterday.
Starting point is 01:33:09 I mean, it's tragic when anyone, but he's a public figure and I knew him from Plambola, Arkansas. That's from Fox News. A man in California was sentenced to federal prison this week after he was convicted in a $9 million ponsie scheme where he claimed to turn cow manure into green energy. Oh, wow. I mean, that's not the lunchbox would try. And it is. It was just like. I mean, I don't even understand how people fall for that one.
Starting point is 01:33:30 A central valley man was sentenced to federal prison Monday after he was convicted of this where he said he could turn basically poop into energy. According to U.S. attorney Philip Talbert's office, the guy got six years and nine months. Wow. He said he stole between $8.75 million from investors, where he claimed he could build these digesters on dairy farms, and they would break down poop into methane gas, and then could be sold his green energy. And probably people were like, I don't get it, but it sounds cool.
Starting point is 01:33:57 Yeah. I'll invest. They got them. He touted that investors would receive 66% all net profits with tax incentives, and then they got fake pictures of the digesters. Oh, man. Fake documents to show the progress was being in. made. This is like the Bernie made off stuff.
Starting point is 01:34:18 Because that's what he would, he was like, look, you made money. Here's this. And he'd give people money. Wild. But like, what if they wanted to go see the place? There's no place. Probably close that day. That's what makes me think of Yeah, probably close that one day. They wanted to get there.
Starting point is 01:34:32 There knows. Some people wanted to tour what she had going on. Ryan Seacrest is the next Will of Fortune host. Ryan Seacrest will take over as the host of Will of Fortune when Pat Sejack retires after the 23, 24 season. He says it's a full circle. moment. And I saw a lot of jokes like, Ryan, lead people jobs. This one's really personal to Ryan
Starting point is 01:34:48 because Merv Griffin was like his mentor. And that's Merv Griffin's show. So I don't think it's Ryan just jumping out going, I'd like to do Will of Fortune, although that would be fun. But I think this one's like super personal to him. Because Merv was like the dude that really helped him out a lot. So good for Ryan. Ryan's always been awesome to me. So
Starting point is 01:35:04 super cool. Lunchbox wanted the job. I know you didn't get it, buddy. Sad news. Sad day for me when I saw the story. I was like, dang it. Because you did reach out an email. Yeah, I feel like they didn't even give me a fair shot. They probably gave you a fair shot. I want to hear Seacrest's demo tape. Demo real.
Starting point is 01:35:21 You know, I think his life is a demo real. So does that mean he'll still be on Idol too? Yeah. But he's off Kelly and Ryan. Oh, is that why he left that? No, I think the back and forth. Listen, I don't know. But I'm just going to say, I know he was flying back and forth.
Starting point is 01:35:35 And that's a grind. And he was doing the radio show and the TV show and Idol. And, but now I think he's back in L.A. And he gets to do all that stuff living there. So I heard. I know. Yeah. Fill your schedule to become more desirable in the dating world, experts say.
Starting point is 01:35:51 This is from Mantelligence.com. If you want people to like you, well, don't be available. I mean, that's generally the rule anyway. Because if you're like, I'm always available, we'll do whatever you want. People are like, why are they also available? Do people not like to be with them? Well, that's also could be lunchbox's a problem with Wheel of Fortune. He was too available.
Starting point is 01:36:06 I don't think that's a problem. Oh, maybe you're right. I don't think that was it. You're right. I was willing to move. And Ryan's so busy. And they went with him. They were like, okay, there's no time.
Starting point is 01:36:15 So there's that successful people say one of the top predictors of success is arriving and leaving at the same time every day. Oh, consistency. That's it. That's it. Because you get trusted. If you're consistent, I trust you to be consistent. I love consistency. There's not a sexier word of consistency.
Starting point is 01:36:35 You start to say it again. Consistency? I'm getting turned on. Oh, boy. That's why I'm not going to say it. What of your consistency late or consistently late and then you leave real early? Yeah, that's not going to be inconsistent. That's inconsistent.
Starting point is 01:36:47 No, no, no, but consistently, you're late every day. You get fired. You're not going to be consistently late because you get fired. Good point. Yes. People who rise up to corporate ladder tend to consistently arrive early and almost at the exact same time every single day. They also tend to leave work at the exact same time every single day. So superior see them go.
Starting point is 01:37:04 They know exactly what they're doing when they're doing it. It's all about consistency. You're nodding. Yeah, I'm just thinking about the leaving part. That's interesting. I like it. I mean, obviously the arriving part makes a lot of sense. People probably don't think through.
Starting point is 01:37:18 It means they're dedicated to what their day looks like and they need to get out and go home and they have priorities. I like it. Snashy starts leaving earlier. Waking up in a bad mood can ruin your day. Scientists found out that when the morning starts, if you think it's going to be stressful, well, it's a bit of a self-fuling prophecy.
Starting point is 01:37:33 Often we have a bad day. Even in the case where nothing distressing actually happens, if we feel like it's going to happen, even though it doesn't, We feel like it happened by the end of the day because we already had that thought at the beginning of the morning. So if you start your day and you're in a bad mood, they say it's best not to dwell and move on. We have best. I agree it's best, but it's easier said than done.
Starting point is 01:37:49 I had a rough night last night. I'll be honest with you. We have put in this new alarm system in our house. We've had issues and we like to have alarms. And our dogs are still probably the best indicator because if a leaf blows the wrong way, they are protecting the fortress. They think it's their castle and they're looking out windows. all the time. So if the dogs are something, usually it's nothing, but it's always
Starting point is 01:38:13 something, meaning it's nothing bad, but there's something out there if they're going crazy. And the dogs are just blah, blah, blah, blah. It's like 12, 31 in the morning. And the alarm is going, look, it's a new sound because it's a new alarm. And I've been listening to podcasts with AirPods when I sleep a little bit
Starting point is 01:38:32 because I'd leave it on and my wife would have to listen to it. So sometimes I'll just put one ear in and lean on one side of my head. And she's like, hey, and I couldn't hear it. She goes, it's beeping, it's beeping. I don't recognize the sound. It's a new alarm. And then the dogs are going crazy. And so when you wake up and you don't know what's going on,
Starting point is 01:38:46 and I'm already really sensitive about that anyway, my heart's racing. I'm thinking somebody's in the house. But I don't want her to think that I'm scared because this is one of those moments where she's really going to continue to formulate an opinion on if I'm to protect her. Right, right, right.
Starting point is 01:38:58 And although I'm scared to death, I can't let her see that I'm scared to death because I have to have control the situation. And so I'm trying to, like, go through the settings and it's like there's an issue with one of the, the sensors, but I don't have my glasses on. At one point, I put a pair of glasses on. I grabbed another pair of glasses.
Starting point is 01:39:16 I tried to put them over the glasses. I was so out of it. And so it was about an hour. I ended up working on that alarm, but I never got back to normal. Like my heart never got all the way back down. The dogs were yelling and barking because there was beeping. And the beeping was because something wasn't set up right with it last night.
Starting point is 01:39:32 But I just am like fried because I never got back to sleep last night. And it just scares the crap out of me because I have all that trauma anyway from being broken into and robbed and stuff. So you're like trying to fix it, but then also thinking, like, is this beeping? Because someone's in the house and come up behind me? Not behind me, but what I did was I couldn't get to stop beeping, so I just had to go search the house. And that's what I did.
Starting point is 01:39:53 Were you armed and ready? No. Oh. Yeah, he had his shoes on. He was ready to run. No, I was just in my underwear, but I didn't have my fists up. Okay, you're armed. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:02 You're armed. I didn't think. I have a gun right there by the bed. I did not grab it because I don't know why I didn't think about it then. Usually I do. First thing I do is grab it. Because you were like, hey, babe, no big deal. It was not. I was not. I was scared to death. There's probably a little pee on my front of underwear.
Starting point is 01:40:16 No, even then. So I went searching the house and I was like so slow and scared. She wouldn't see me. I was like, I'll just go hang here. I'm going to go check every room. And I was like, look around the corner. But I'd look like extra low in case the robber was there. He wouldn't look at eye level.
Starting point is 01:40:31 So I was like looking like at waist level. I'd pull my eyes around, but I was low down. And the dogs are chasing me through the house. Like, what are you doing? Like, why are you doing that? It's dramatic. So that was last night. And I think we got the alarm fixed.
Starting point is 01:40:44 But what are we talking about to even get into that? Just sad. If you wake up in a bad mood, you're going to have a bad day. So did you move on like the story? I feel fine. I'm not grumpy. I'm just tired now. Because I got like three hours sleep last night.
Starting point is 01:40:57 Well. I fought an intruder. I'm going to change the story. I fought an intruder and saved our house. Yeah, yeah. What? You can start telling yourself that you just need rest. Because the more you say over and over that you're tired or exhausted.
Starting point is 01:41:08 I'm mostly in a row just once. I know, but this is just once a nap. I'm done. I've moved on. Oh, you're done? I actually feel good. Well, then good. You've moved on. Okay. Well, I'm just going to encourage people to use the more positive word.
Starting point is 01:41:20 Just say, I need rest? Yes. I need a nap. I need rest. You're acknowledging that he needs to rest. I mean, I could. Pink shocked as a fan throws her mom's ashes up on stage. Did you guys see the video?
Starting point is 01:41:30 Mm-mm. So Pink was at a concert and a fan threw a bag of her mom's cremated ashes on the stage. and pink was kind of cool about, I mean, it's weird. But she was like, is that your mom? She goes, I don't know how I feel about this, but it stayed there. I guess the mom loved pink. Or maybe they had some, you know, shows they went to together. Wow.
Starting point is 01:41:51 But it's like if you do that, what you should do is take the bag, cut a hole in the bag, and just slowly put them out while the concert's happening. Not throw the whole bag up there. Like if you want to leave them there, you can do it without being seen. I don't think anybody would care because they don't know. Yeah. I think it's a bag of cocaine or something. Okay.
Starting point is 01:42:08 Dark, dark cocaine. That's gray. Honestly. I don't know what it looks like. Either. Ashes? Oh, I have. Yeah, yeah, I do.
Starting point is 01:42:17 I mean, I've never seen cocaine except movies. I assume that's white. But I'm saying it's white. It's like ashes. Okay. Yeah. So you think they should just pour it out while they're watching the show? I'm saying if you're going to do it, that's what I would do because no one would
Starting point is 01:42:28 know the difference. It wouldn't be a big scene. You can probably just get away with it because there'd be people everywhere. It'd be like if you're going to pour out a couple water. He'd just walk around and pour it out. nobody's going to care. That's true. California man mistakenly donated $15,000 instead of $150,000 to a food program. Oh, no.
Starting point is 01:42:40 Well, hey, they win. No, no, but that's still money they probably need. Yeah. Well, so, yes, it was a bit troublesome at first. So his name's Michael. He was like, hey, this neighbor came over. He was talking about a hunger charity. So I wanted to support it.
Starting point is 01:42:57 And so he said, okay, cool. So he donated $150 bucks, but then it became $1,504. which is $15,0.141. Oh, no. Or $1,500 is what it was. Yeah. And so in the end, he got his money back with then somebody else donated it to cover it.
Starting point is 01:43:14 Okay, good. Yeah, he, no, the guy that runs the charity, like, started sending videos with all the people that were the food was going to go with his name and saying, thank you. And he was just like, I didn't do it. I didn't mean to do $15,000. It was $15,000 or $100?
Starting point is 01:43:27 No, it was $15,000. And then when he got his money back, he ended up donating $1,500. That's what it was. He upped his donation just because of all the grass. attitude they showed. He was just like, but I can't afford $15,000. And what it was is when he was entering his credit card number, he thought he had clicked out of the amount box. Is that where the 401 came from? Yes. Those were the last digits of his credit card number. And that's how
Starting point is 01:43:48 the cursor was still over that wrong box. And he got all these messages and signs and people singing to him. And he was just like, oh. He got wings of buildings in his honor. Finally, an episode of Black Mirror has people actually reading their Netflix terms and conditions. This is the one I told you guys about called Jonah's awful. I still need to see this. Black Mirror is wild this season. And so the first episode's about a girl, and she has a subscription to Netflix, but it's called Streamberry.
Starting point is 01:44:16 And she doesn't read the terms and conditions. But part of it is once you subscribe, you didn't read it all, they can just do a show on your life. They own the rights to your life. Oh my goodness. It's crazy. That's interesting. Yeah, it's really good.
Starting point is 01:44:26 The second episode of Black Mirror, Jane. That one's tough. I can't stop thinking about it. The third one's like the greatest episode they've ever made. I don't know that I was that interested in the third one, but for a movie, and Jesse's in it from Breaking Bad. Yeah. Aaron Paul? It's like an hour and a half, and it's a movie.
Starting point is 01:44:42 It's really good. I don't know that's my favorite one, but it's awesome. Do you watch them back to back, or do you watch him like, because I was talking to Kevin in another room, and he said he watches one and he needs a week off. You kind of need a pallet cleanser. I mean, the best ingredient would probably be to add would be the Disney Plus, or not Apple Plus, the show, the coach. The Ted Lasson. Just to kind of clean your balance. You need something real positive and goofy.
Starting point is 01:45:06 I forget where to watch Black Mirror. Netflix. Oh, okay. Or your heart and soul. Or the future. All right. All right, that's the news. Thank you.

Starting point is 01:47:33 goes, but there's so much luck involved. And he's like, just give it a shot. He goes, but if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit. If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration. It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat. Just hang in there. Yeah, it would not be.
Starting point is 01:47:57 Right, it wouldn't be that. There's a lot of luck. Listen to thanks, Dad, on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast. or wherever you get your podcast. I'm all for taking a risk if I think it's strategically advantageous. However, this seems too risky. Men can now take Viagra in the form of breath mints. Seems risky.
Starting point is 01:48:18 Yeah, like, what? Like, you just put it in your mouth. And it just solves. I mean. Well, it's like, what if I do just want a mentos or a certs? Yeah, I see what you're saying. You know, it's like we got to make sure they look nothing like a mint. Oh, okay, yeah.
Starting point is 01:48:31 Yeah, they need to be tie-dye. they need to be just something. I shouldn't be like oh I need a minute. Oh my god. Oh my God. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. It seems awfully risky. Like in the shape of a V but it is interesting. Shape of a V?
Starting point is 01:48:50 A V. No, it's V and that's what you're putting in but it is interesting. Or it's like a Flintstones vitamin. It looks like a wiener. There we go. Yeah, then you'd really be like what? Oh, I know what I'm getting it. Yeah. But I think it's interesting. They're all they're thinking like oh, we're going to prepare their breath for... I don't know that that's...
Starting point is 01:49:07 Does it go together? I don't think they're preparing the breath for like the first part of making out. I think it's just making it look more casual so people don't see you taking a Viagra pill. So is it minty? Like, can you use it for bad breath? But I don't know that taking a pill,
Starting point is 01:49:21 I don't know, you just need to slip a mint. Because I have medication that I've dissolved in my mouth before that tastes disgusting. And also you just swallow a pill. No one goes, he's swallowing a pill everybody take a look I don't think it's something you really have to hide
Starting point is 01:49:36 Yeah because if you're carrying around a bottle of Viagra people know That's what I'm saying So the bottle's different bottle would be different That's what I'm saying you pull it out and it's like That's tricky that's tricky that's what I'm saying I can't look like an altoy No no no no in that tin box no way A chewable mint
Starting point is 01:49:52 Same active ingredient as Viagra Now available with prescription Did we ever play that game? We never played that game We didn't our lawyers who don't step in a lot said you can't play Viagra roulette. Which is what we were going to play,
Starting point is 01:50:07 which was the funniest game I've ever heard of with the we invented and we did not play Viagra roulette, but what a name. The Hems mints are $6 per mint. And though clinical trials haven't happened,
Starting point is 01:50:20 two-thirds of the men who have tried them give them a big thumbs up. This article doesn't say that, but that's not the only thing that goes up. I got to. I see what you're saying. It just seems, risky.
Starting point is 01:50:32 Bobby Bones Show Boney of the day. This story comes to us from Peachtree City, Georgia. A man worked at an auto body shop and he said, man, I quit. And they said, well, fine, you're not getting your last paycheck. And he goes, you know what, I'm going to pay you?
Starting point is 01:50:46 So the owner of the store dumped $9,000 of pennies on his driveway. I remember the story. This is an older story. Yes. Yeah. And so the guy sued saying that was rude and he left a mean note. You don't pay somebody with pennies if they, you a paycheck and their other paychecks have been checks not pennies.
Starting point is 01:51:03 Yeah, and it was only $900, right? And so the guy takes him to court and now the body shop owner owes him $40,000. Wow. And not just pennies. Let's some oily pennies. Oily pennies. Hell. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:51:15 I mean, that is awesome. So now he's... So he made $40,000 because the guy dropped some pennies on his driveway. I think it's a little more than that. I think the reason is because the guy has been paying him with paychecks, but because he was holding a grudge, he decided to change up the standard. of payment. You can't do that. Just to stick it to him. It'd be like, all right, guys, Eddie, you're fired. I'm now going to pay you with
Starting point is 01:51:37 Napster gift cards. Oh yeah. That'd be terrible. Is that exist? It's a lot of work. I don't know. And this poor guy had to count all those things to make sure he got his all $900. Oh my God. Yeah, good, good. I'm glad that he made some money here. I'm Lunchbox. That's your Bonehead Story of the Day. Did you finally finish love and death on Max? Lunchbox? Oh my goodness. Yeah. A plus, huh? A plus. Guys, oh, if you haven't seen it, get on it. I think we all have at this point. Oh, I've seen it, yeah.
Starting point is 01:52:06 I watched Candy. Oh, okay, you know the story then. But nobody keeps saying this one's better. Well, I watched a little bit of it, but then I'm like, okay, I just know the story, so I'm going to watch something else. Oh, man. I think it is better. But you know the story.
