Good morning, studio.

Morning. I thought this was funny. Morgan, number two, does all of our social media, all of our digital, the website. But at times, people can be mean to you on social media as well? Yes, like on my personal Instagram, they'll make comments, and it just lives there forever because I can't do anything about it. Wait, so why are people mean to you mostly? I mean, a lot of them think I have a drinking habit, you know, because I always love drinking videos. That's a problem.

Not a habit? Yeah. I mean, a drinking habit, probably not so bad. It sounds better. It's not such a bad thing to have it. So they talk about you drinking a lot. Yeah, there's one. It goes across the board.

What is your new strategy with social media? Well, so if somebody posts like a negative comment, I'll give it 24 hours. Okay? I'll just let it sit on my page. Sometimes I'll respond. Sometimes I won't. But I'll see who all likes that comment. And then after 24 hours, I'll block them and block everybody who likes the comment.

Wow. Because they're all feeling that same thing. That's very funny. Yeah. I like that. Yeah, because they're... It's haters and the haters' friends. It's right.

The haters that don't actually hate, but they hate. They support the haters. They support negativity and hatred. You should do that on our Facebook page. I mean, I've been thinking about it. I just didn't know if I was allowed to, you know, put that kind of bias on there. I don't care what you do on that page. We might not have anyone after that.

Yeah, yeah. We have like over a million followers in that thing. I go look one day and there's like 17. Just people, period. Yes, he did that. I think that's a pretty good strategy, though. Yeah, I mean, it's like passive-aggressive negative. But, like, right?

So I'm just trying to avoid their potential future negative comments. I like that. That's a pretty good idea. But you agree? Yeah, no, I think it's great. And you should be, listen, you wouldn't let someone come into your house and insult you or say things that you don't like. And your social media is like your house. You don't have to allow something you don't want up there.

Does anybody listening? Also, don't follow things that make you feel bad. A person. a brand and not because they're insulting you but if they're doing something or you don't feel good about yourself block them limit it mute it i do that all the time there are people that it looks like i'm following that i've muted because that just don't like to see their feed and also don't deal with the drama of them going what'd you unfollow me i probably got like 10 people on mute right now oh wow yeah muting's good yeah any one of us that you've muted all of you at some point

no no i haven't muted any of you guys Good morning, Bobby Vones. Several months ago, I went to a local day spa for a massage. During the massage, I thought the therapist was on her phone. I could feel something in the back of my thigh or my butt, and then a tapping feeling in that area when she massaged the other area. I went back a few times, and sometimes it happens, other times it doesn't. Last week, my friend and I went for a spa day.

My friend had the same therapist and said she had the same experience. Should I say something? I don't want to get her in trouble, but it seems inappropriate. Texting is one thing, but what if she's taking a picture? pictures or videos. You ever had a weird massage experience? What would you do? Wendy T. Well, what I would do since you can't prove it is just not go to that therapist anymore. What do you mean? You can't prove it. Just look. But they don't have the proof. They have to go back in and do it again. Oh, true. True. Yeah. Yeah. No phones. No phones. No phones. No phones. In your underwear or

naked. No. And lunchbox goes naked. I do go naked. Absolutely full naked. That's what they ask you to do. full naked. They like it better when you're fully naked. I don't think they like it better. I think it's personal. They can get their hands in there. Can you imagine? It's weird. Disgusting. But me too. I'm disgusting too. I don't want people. So here's what we say. Just go to a different

therapist. Yeah, he may but what if this person? Clearly they keep going back. Must be good. If it's that good, then you just risk having your butt taken. You know, picture of your butt taken. Weird experiences. Yes. One time I was getting a massage. And at the end, she kissed me

my forehead. And it was so odd that I questioned myself that it even happened. Yeah, like were you out, so out of it from the massage? I was like this. I was like, wait, what? And for like the next 10 minutes, I was like, did she? And then I realized, I know she did.

But in the moment, I didn't go like, did you kill my forehead? And I thought even want to say anything, I don't think. But I had somebody kiss my forehead. You had any weird experience? Yeah, I've had some weird ones. But one that always stands out to me is one that I got at the mall once.

It was a spa that was in the mall and it was a guy and he was like pounding my back. Like pounding it. And he said to me, this is what we call tenderizing the meat. That's weird. It's probably like an intern that isn't even and they didn't have anyone and like, hey Chuck, go in real quick. Yeah. And I was like, okay. You know, because like you, while you get the back ready to massage it, you tenderize it.

And I just was like. Did you go, you're not going to eat me, buddy. Awkward. Why are you tenderizing me? I don't know, but it was very awkward. Eddie, you have anything? Well, the only weird part was a coworker of mine. We were in Vegas for a conference and he was like, hey, let's get a massage.

I'll pay for it. I said, cool. I thought he was going to pay for, you know, us to go to two different rooms. We ended up doing a couple's massage and we were right next to the whole time. It was very awkward. That's funny. And that was my first massage ever. That's funny.

It was a couple's massage. Yeah, with another dude. I mean, I'd be okay. with it, but I wouldn't expect it. Exactly. If he's like, let's go get massages on me. I wouldn't think we go to two different rooms. Yeah.

But if he's like, hey, let's go get massage or we can be on the two tables next to each other, I don't think I would go, no. No, no, no, it was fine. But I would just, because then we could talk. Yeah, which we did not talk. But I wouldn't expect that. Lunchbox? My wife and I did a couple's massage, and they'd said,

oh, here, you can have the room for 45 minutes, so I wouldn't say it's awkward. It was awesome. Okay. All right, now time for another lunchbox present segment. All right, first, Lunchbox, you took over the voicemails here at the studio. Yeah, you know, you always tell people to call and leave a voicemail, and so people are nice enough to take time out of their day to call and leave a voicemail. But sometimes I stay after work and just pick up the phone and act like the voicemail.

So if you call us while we're on the air, then you get through we'll answer live. We may put you on the air. But you can call any time while we're not on the air, the same number and leave us a voicemail. 877-77 Bobby, if you ever wanted to do that. Here is Lunchbox answering the voicemail. This is the Bob and Boat Show. Voice mail. Yeah.

Please leave a message and we may call you back. We may play it back on the air. Or is this actually lunchbox? Okay, I can't even tell because now it's so quiet. Okay, well, this is Sarah. Nobody likes you. Oh, my God, it is one box. You're kidding me right now.

Did this really just happen? If you're satisfied with your message, press two. Oh, my God. Jack, do I press two? If you'd like to speak to Caitlin, press three. So, this is, okay. Part of me feels like this is just a recording, and he's totally messing with us,

and the other part of me thinks this is really him, but I don't think he'd be listening for this song. That was boring. Try again. Oh, my God. We, I don't even know what to say. Thank you for calling the Bobby Bone Show. We may play your voicemail back on the air. Do you hang out?

We didn't talk with her? Oh no! Oh no! Hang up! Well, because we don't know what she called for. Oh, yeah. It's awesome. How cool?

You just talked to her. That's funny. It was funny he just bailed on her. Okay? Here's another voicemail. Hello. Good morning. How are you?

And welcome to the Bobby Bone Show voicemail. Unfortunately, phone screener Abby was slacking on her job and did not pick up your call in time. So if you've reached the voicemail line, if you'd like to leave a message for the show, please do so out to the beep and maybe they'll play it back on the air. We appreciate you and lunchbox is the greatest. Have a great day. Beep! My name is Victor and I'm calling from Belend, New Mexico.

My daughter's getting married. I need a good song for the father-daughter, daughter, dad. You guys could help me out. Try smack that by A-Con. That won't work. That won't work. I don't think so. The thong song.

No, no song-song. Nothing like that. I want something she's going to remember. Everybody remembers the thong song. Thank you for calling the Bobby Bone Show voicemail. Have a great day. Goodbye. Are you hung up on them?

Yeah, hang on. Guys, when you are done with a voicemail, you don't stand around. They know you're not a voicemail at some point. The voice mom doesn't talk back. That's funny. Okay. That's a good one. Here's some more lunchbox audio.

Apparently lunchbox's neighbor confronted him. Should you say why or do you want to just play the clip? Just play the clip. Why are you recording your neighbor? No, no, this is what happened. I was in the front yard and we're talking and he says something and I'm like, excuse me, did he really just say that? So then I reach in my sweatshirt because I got the little pocket in the front of the hoodie

and I hit record it. And I ask him to repeat himself because I want to make sure I heard him correctly. Okay, here we go. It's about 40 seconds. Here you go. Excuse me? What did you say? I couldn't hear you.

Hey, I'm just saying you're the last house in the neighborhood. with the Christmas lights on. I walk all over and everyone else is put theirs away. Yours is the last one. What's the deal? Well, I mean, I get it. I mean, but I have kids. It's been snowing. Like, I have a job. I mean... You haven't gotten around to it yet?

Yeah, I'm just... It's festive, but, you know, there's an energy shortage. You know, you're just burning those kilobots. I'm thinking of you, man. I'm thinking of you. Sure. I don't... And next thing you know, you're going to tell me the earth is round, but I mean, any day you want to come by

and take them down, go ahead. but. Now, I'm not taking my time. Okay, well then, all right, thank you. Have a good night. Have a good night. Awkward. Wow.

Wait, why would you do that? I feel so awkward right now. Why would you get confrontational? Why would I get confrontational? Wait, no. Why him? That's not on him? That's not on me.

Yeah, lunchbox is so awkward. No, wait, wait. Next thing you're going to tell me the earth is round. Well, that's a dumb. Yeah, that's dumb. But he wasn't confrontational. The guy needs to shut his trap. Well, I know, I get it.

But why would you make it. awkward with your neighbor. Like the guy's already being awkward, yes, but like just let it go and be like, okay, you know, we like, oh, mind your own business. No. He's lucky lunchbox didn't say mind your own business, loser. I was frustrated because I was like, did he really just say that? How did it come up the first time? How did that come up? Well, he was just like, oh, how's it going? You know, did you have a good holiday? And I'm like, yeah. Are you just standing out in the yard drilling? No, no, he was walking by and I don't know, I was picking up toys in the front yard, and he just started a conversation and then he goes into the Christmas light. So I think he stopped a

talk just for the Christmas lights. And that's why I was like, wait a minute. And so that's when I started recording him. And I took a couple steps closer to him so I can make sure you can hear him. Yeah, that stinks. I mean, I would have been upset. Yeah, but. I'm not blaming you.

No, I think that it was awkward and I'm not. I don't support the man behaving that way. But then also you took it to the next level by then. But what did you say? Like, so you're accusing him of actually thinking the earth is round, which it is. No, I'm saying you're telling me obvious things. Like, yes, I'm the only one with the Christmas lights up. They're burning kilowatts.

I understand that. I was saying, I was saying, oh, you're Mr. Einstein, basically. Oh, okay. But that didn't come out. I didn't get that. I was so just caught off guard. Wow, wow, wow. So how are you going to handle this?

Because now I would leave him up another month. You're going to see him again. Oh, you would in spite? Obviously, he said he walks all around. So, I mean, I'm just going to leave him on. Yeah. And they're on a timer. So I don't even have to turn him on.

I mean, I'm an. on that whatever that scale is. I'm a challenger. Anything. Anybody pushes me. You're about to get pushed five. If I were lunchbox, they'd stay until next Christmas.

Oh, wow. What? I would be so upset if this dude came and said. Your neighbor, though. Like, you're going to see him. Anytime. So he's passionate about energy. Like, he probably...

You didn't burn the kilowatts, buddy. That's so dumb. So dumb. So what are you going to do? Oh, they're going to stay up. For how long? I don't know. I mean, until I feel like I'm over this.

Valentine's Day. I am not over this now and I'm not going to be over it tomorrow. I'm not going to be over in three days. I mean, I am so frustrated. I couldn't believe it. Man. That might be the best audio I've ever heard. And you, yeah.

You want to hear another audio or you want to end on that? I think we end on that. You do? Okay. I mean, that's incredible. I mean, that's incredible. I guess save whatever that is I'd like to know. Okay.

Well, maybe we'll do it later. Okay, there you go. That's Lunchbox Presents to quality presentations there. Amy's still shaking her head. I'm shocked. A win is a win. A win is a win. I don't care what you're 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. Well, somewhere along the way, this platform became bigger than I ever imagined. And now I'm bringing all of that excitement to my brand new podcast, The Clifford Show.

This is a place for raw, unfiltered conversations with some of your favorite athletes, creators, and voices that not only deserve to be heard, but celebrated. One week, I'll take you behind the scenes of the biggest moments in sports and entertainment, and the next we'll talk about life, mental health, purpose, and even music.

The Clifford Show isn't just a podcast, it's a space for honest conversations, stories that don't always get told, and for people who are chasing something bigger. So, if you've ever supported me, or you're just chasing down a dream, this is right where you need to be. Listen to the Clifford show on the IHeart Radio app,

Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. And for more behind the scenes, follow at Clifford and at TikTok Podcast Network on TikTok. On a recent episode of the podcast, Money and Wealth with John Hobriant, I sit down with Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money. What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth

to the people when they're no longer here? We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth, starting with the mindset shifts. Too many of us were never, ever taught. Financial education is not, always about like, I'm going to get rich. That's great. It's about creating an atmosphere for you to be able to take care of yourself and leave a strong financial legacy for your family. If you've ever felt you didn't get the memo on money, this conversation is for you to hear

more. Listen to Money and Wealth with John O'Brien from the Black Effect Network on the I'd Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Hey, earners, what's up? Look, money is something we all deal with, but financial literacy is what helps turn income into real wealth. On each episode of the podcast, Earn Your Leisure, we break down the conversations you need to understand money, investing, and entrepreneurship.

From stocks and real estate to credit, business, and generational wealth, we translate complex financial topics into real conversations everyone can understand. Because the truth is, most people will never taught how money really works. But once you understand the system, you can start to build within it. That means ownership, smarter investing, and creating opportunities

not just for yourself, but for the next generation. If you want to learn how to build wealth, understand the markets, and think like an owner, earn your leisure is the podcast for you. Listen to earn your leisure on the I-Heart Radio app,

I'm excited to share that I have a new podcast called Mind Over Mount In each episode, I interview athletes, adventurers, and adrenaline seekers to discuss the inner landscapes and life experiences that informed and inspired their extraordinary feats.

I also bring a bit of advice into the mix so we too can better understand how to face our own seemingly insurmountable challenges. Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to pull out what you already have inside. We're coming into this world fighting for our lives. All I'm going to do is pull out what you already got inside. We're there to support and celebrate each other. And that's not like your story versus my story. You're going to walk up and over that dang mountain. You're not just going to put your mind over it. Yep, yep, exactly.

And if I can't walk up and over it, I'm going to go through it. Listen to Mind Over Mountain every Thursday on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. American soccer is about to explode. The World Cup is coming. Ramos sending on the only store at the chip. I'm Tad Ramos. I'm Tom Boe. On our podcast, Inside American Soccer, you'll get the real storylines.

I'm not worried about Policic. I'm not worried about Balagan. I'm not worried about McKinney. My only concern is what happens in the back. The biggest decisions. If you're going to look at stats and numbers, he has no shot at making this World Cup team. And the truth about the U.S. national team. It wouldn't be a huge surprise if our team ends up in the quarterfinals or potentially a great run into the semi-final. The World Cup is almost here. Experience it all with us.

Listen, Inside American Soccer with Tom Bogart and Tab Ramos on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, wherever you get your podcast. It's time for the good news. With Amy. Tell me something good. So Adam Mazeo is in the Army, and he was stationed far away from his mom, and she hadn't seen him in a long time. So he was able to fly to New York and go to the restaurant where she works.

Pixley's restaurant. And she was in the middle of her shift and he was sitting at a table. I saw the video of this and it is awesome. And she kind of comes over. She seems like she's the best server in the world. She comes over with a smile, greets to people, is about to take their order. And then she hears his voice and looks over and sees that it's him and like freaks out.

And here's a clip of her finally realizing that Adam is sitting there. Hi, guys. How you doing? Oh, I'm doing better than how you're here. Me. That's right. Yeah, the video was just so cute because she was just, I mean, good thing. I was like, ooh, she's probably always in a good mood, but knowing I was thinking of my luck,

I would come over to a table and be like, how's it going? Like in the video would have been ruined because of my attitude, but she was chipper no matter what. And he stiffed her, I heard. No, no, no, no. But I love that he surprised his mom. He hadn't seen her in eight months. That's a good. Super cool.

That would be awesome. That would be awesome. All right, that's what it's all about. That was tell me something good. There's a voicemail from over the weekend. I just wanted to pose a question to the room. Do you guys think that it's still catfishing if it is the person in the photo, but they don't really look that good? Maybe the photos are a few years younger, maybe a few pounds less, maybe there's some editing going on.

Do you guys consider that catfishing if someone should up to the date? And it's them, you recognize them, but you're also like, that's not what I thought I was talking to. What do you think? Great question. Let's go to Morgan. Morgan, you're on a nap and you meet a dude and he doesn't look like the picture, but it's that guy. Yeah, this happened to me. Really?

Did you feel like you were catfished? I didn't feel like I was catfish, but I definitely felt a little uncomfortable because, like, it felt like he wasn't secure or confident in himself in that face of his life, like when he showed up to meet me. Do you feel like he was baiting you with a better version of him? Yes, for sure. It definitely was like a bait and switch. situation. Bate, here's the hot me, switch, here's ugly me.

In a way, like. I could never do that because I would be so nervous. I would almost want to have an uglier picture up because then it'd be like, surprise, I'm hotter. Yeah. Not the other way where you actually see their eyes go, oh, God. How do you react whenever, and do you react whenever he doesn't look like him? I didn't react. Like, I think my brain reacted.

Like there was definitely wheels turning in my brain. Yeah. But I went through with the date and we hung out for like two hours. Oh, so you liked him. No, I just like, I'm really bad at ending conversation. I'm really bad at being like, okay, I'm leaving. So I just went through with it and like did the date, but I didn't talk to him after that. It just started everything off kind of like it felt like on a lie.

So you wouldn't say that's catfishing though, but you would say it is a bit dishonest. It's dishonest. And it's definitely like, it's kind of a flag where you're like, okay, what else is going on. Misleading. Yeah. Well, hold on. Lunchbox, what do you want to say?

Yeah, yeah. I want to say this. So when you show up to a date, do you let them know you're wearing spanks or a push-up brawl? Okay. No, I'm honest question. But is that? That's misrepresentation the same way because you think you're getting this

hourglass figure and you get her home and you're getting a muffin top. I mean, am I right? You think you're getting double these and you're really getting C's. It's like, whoa. He's not wrong. What? It's misrepresentation the same way.

You are altering your look. to make yourself look better just like he did in the pictures. Well, Morgan's example is a guy, but this can go both ways. Like, yes. But his example specifically, I mean, respond to that. Push-up, Roz and, what do you say? Spanks. Spanks.

Yeah. Okay, no, so now if the guy colors his hair. Great ribbons. Whitenes his teeth. Yes. But right. If you have a problem with misrepresentation, then you have to hold the same standards to the woman. I think the issue here is.

A sphinx or a pusher brawl are not going to alter things that drastically. You sure? What? Then why do you wear them? Because it feels, it's shapewear. It feels good. But it's not, it's not this like drastic difference. It's really not.

It turns the muffin into a breadstick. Stop. It absolutely doesn't. It slims it down. These guys, I can't. I can't. We do a lot of things in the current to make ourselves look and feel better. Right.

I think that's different than using an old picture of you from 10 years ago that you can't even get back to. Very different. I understand why you feel the way you do. But I don't think it's exactly the same. He is. You mad at her? I'm mad at all you guys ripping on this dude. Nobody ripped.

She just said it made her feel uncomfortable because she felt like it was dishonest of him. Did you put makeup on for that date, Morgan? Yes, but I will tell you, hold on. I do. Well, I guess if you put clothes on in that account. Can I respond to you? Like, I don't disagree with you. I do think we filter ourselves and stuff.

but I make sure on my profile, like, even when I got bangs, I put new pictures up because I look like a different person. You're going to make sure that they're not surprised by what they're seeing. Yeah. By what they saw. Yeah. So, like, however I show up every single day is how my dating profile looks. And as long as you show up as who you are every single day, then I'm cool with that. So you have a variety of photos?

Yes. So you, I mean, I'm full body. I'm close up. You see everything about me. So if I'm putting myself out there in that full way, I feel like the guy should also. How did this turn on Morgan? I mean, it was literally, I went to Morgan to answer and lunchwalks got so mad. It seems like he just got mad at women in general.

In general, yeah. But you see my point. I see why you think that's a point, but I don't think. You kind of side with me. No, no, no. But I don't think it's the same point because, like Amy said, guys do it too. Yeah, there's shapewear for men. And not only that, you're dyeing the hair.

They do have spank for men. All that. Anyway, Morgan, thank you. Lunchbox. Take a breath. Eddie, who side do you on? I mean, I understand what you're saying, but I'm not on your side. It's not the same.

So it's like if Eddie wears a hat? it's misrepresentation but you know people know if I'm wearing a hat fuck wants a full body naked wants to see your medical records

and anything less than that no I'm saying if you're gonna get mad at him for having older pictures then you better not no older pictures is different it doesn't matter

thank you Morgan you're welcome so is it catfishing or not no it's misrepresentation I do want to bring on Alice from North Carolina she called last week

informing us she was scammed by a fake trace Atkins you were hoping to buy meet and greet passes and tickets to a Trace Atkins show, correct? Yes, correct. Hey, did you get the tickets?

That's why I still love you. We're sorry that this happened. I mean, you have no idea how many times a week this happens. My manager told me this happens all the time. And it's, you know, these platforms have. been policing this stuff better and don't seem to care that people are being taken advantage of like this. And, you know, our laws haven't caught up with our technology. These people need to be caught and prosecuted.

But, you know, they'll shut their little sight down. But then they just start another one back up and nobody does anything about it. No, that's the truth. Well, Alice, Trace wants to make sure that when you come to the show, that you also get to, to meet and greet and do the meet and greet, meet Trace, and also get a picture. I'm going to cry.

On a recent episode of the podcast, Money and Wealth with John Hobriant, I sit down with Tiffany the budgetista Aliche to talk about what it really takes to take control of your money. What would that look like in our families if everyone was able to pass on wealth to the people when they're no longer here? We break down budgeting, financial discipline, and how to build real wealth, starting with the mindset shifts. Too many of us were never, ever taught.

Financial education is not always about. about like, I'm going to get rich. That's great.

I'm excited to share that I have a new podcast called Mind Over Mountain. In each episode, I interview athletes, adventurers, and adrenaline seekers to discuss the inner landscapes and life experiences that informed and inspired their extraordinary feats. I also bring a bit of advice into the mix so we too can better understand how to face our own seemingly insurmountable challenges. Do you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to pull out what you already have inside. We're coming into this world fighting for our lives. All I'm going to do is pull out what you already got inside.

we're there to support and celebrate each other. And that's not like your story versus my story. You're going to walk up and over that dang mountain. You're not just going to put your mind over it. Yep, yep, exactly. And if I can't walk up and over it, I'm going to go through it.

We'll look at our lives and what we actually think on and off the court. Nothing's off limits. We talk trade requests. What's the vibe of that when it's like your star player is like, well, I want to leave?

So we were going, coming back from Las Vegas, and we were going through TSA. And my wife, the whole weekend we were in Vegas, had been breastless. pumping because she had to get the milk for the baby.

And so she saved all the milk that she, you know, pumped out of her, you know. We know. We know. We love saying that. You know. And so we had it in a cooler full of ice. And on the website it says you can bring breast milk. And as we're going through, the guy pulls it to the side and he goes, if you can produce this much milk, there is no need to save it.

You might as well just throw this in the trash because when you bring breast milk through, it makes my job really difficult. Who are you to tell my wife After she worked so hard to pump all that milk all weekend That she should just throw it away And I got kind of hot at the TSA agent But I was like, don't get arrested Don't get arrested at the airport

And so then I went online and I found There's a number you can call to complain So guess what I did? Okay, well let's hear the call of lunchbox calling the TSA Hi, this is with TSA Do you have any questions or concerns that I can help you with?

Yes, ma'am, I absolutely have a concern because I went through TSA pre-check at the Las Vegas airport. And my wife, yeah, she was bringing breast milk. And the guy opened up the cooler and he goes, he told her, why don't you just throw this away? You don't need it. How is he going to tell a woman to throw her breast milk away? Is that what TSA is trained to do?

Oh, my goodness, sir. I'm so sorry for that incident. I apologize. No, that is absolutely unacceptable. Yeah, my wife worked all weekend. Every three hours, she had those things. I don't know about you. Have you had any kids?

Have you had to put those machines on your ladies? and, you know, that's really hard work. And he was like, you should just throw this away because why it made his job harder. Sorry, is he not getting paid? Do you get paid at the TSA? No, absolutely. Oh, see, yeah. That's what I thought because he was like, oh, it makes my job hard.

Well, guess what? It's called your job. So do it. Why are you tell me to throw it away? You are absolutely correct. You know, that is unacceptable. I mean, I would like, you know what I would like to do? I would like me and you go down there and have those things up to his

chest and see if he likes getting to z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-and trying to get milk out every three hours. Listen, I understand, so I hear the frustration in your voice. But here's what I'm going to do. I am going to contact the Las Vegas airport. I am going to file a claim, and you have my word that I am going to look into this personally. Well, thank you very much, because I just want all those women to know I am pro breast milk, and I want to make sure TSA is too, and I want that milk to be safe. Yes, sir.

Yes, sir. Thank you so much. All right. Have a great day. You too. Just a couple of comments. One, would they beep out? I don't know.

Why was there a beat? I beeped his name. His name is. Oh, that's what it was. Yeah, yeah. Because I didn't know if that would be good to sell them out like that. But yes, I, yes, yeah. Number two comment is, I find your communication style intriguing.

Because he'll ask a question, then just keep talking and then ask another question that doesn't have to do it. And then they have like three questions and they don't really know how to answer any of them. Hey, can I ask you a question? Do you think it's okay to pump breast milk? If you do, okay, do you think women should have rights? Uh-huh. The 1920s, that's a suffrage. When we got women out, they can vote.

Do you think that was good? Who's the leader? Okay, help! And you're like, she's like, I'm blown away. I don't know what to say to this. But yes, I feel like she understood. I also feel like you'd like to say breast. Well, he also called them the ladies.

Yes, obviously. That was funny, though. Yes, okay. Last comment, Eddie. My favorite is that he continues to yell even after he's like saying, thank you. I appreciate it. You're very nice about this.

Thank you for helping me. I'm calling you a lot. You're the good one. Wait, what? Why are you still? It's time for the good news. With lunchbox. Tell me something good.

Alan Taylor and his son, Zane, we're at City Donuts, getting some nice little donuts, and Zane's standing off at the table, and when Dad's paying, I'll take two glaze, two chocolate frosted, and he hears something in the background.

He looks, and there's an out-of-control car heading for the restaurant, and he runs, dives, tackles his four-year-old son, just as the car comes crashing, through the wall and misses them by inches. Saves his son and City Donuts said, Zane, you can have one donut every Saturday for the rest of

your life. Okay. I thought he was there just because he said one donut. That's it. What's up with that car? I just says that someone hit the gas instead of the break. Yeah. So somebody old doing the wrong pedal.

Yeah. Or somebody drunk or Amy because she just happens on her breath. So one of those three. Ah, good story. Wow. That stinks. that's what it's all about. That was tell me something good.

And you turn a rated out, it's trying to put you through. Mike is writing this week's next bit. And Bobby's on the mic so you know what this. Bobby Vaughn's going to. I think this is a pretty good class. California students, K through 12, they have to learn literary skills, but also now there is part of the class

that teaches people how to know if it's fake news or not. Oh, that's good. Something we didn't have to learn because we didn't have all social media telling us lying to us at times. It looked like it was the truth. I mean, I just got tricked like a second ago. There was some post about a Dallas Cowboys guy got arrested.

That was a fake account. Oh. Fake news. So now they have put in this Assembly Bill 873, which requires a state to add media literacy to curriculum frameworks that actually teaches you how to tell the difference. Yeah. Sometimes it's really hard to tell though.

Oh, yeah. But yeah. Overall, only 7% of adults have a great deal of trust in the media. And I'd like to think that's 7%. Because those are our listeners. That's the 7%. They know we might be wrong, but they know we're not going to purposefully lie to them. Right.

We just are idiots sometimes. Just misinformation. Yeah. Yeah. Not disinformation. Yeah, we're all just a little misunderstood. We're trying, man. We're going as hard as we can here.

We're just sometimes. We're like you. Shooting from the head. We just say stuff sometimes. So that's from cowmatters.org. Thought that was pretty good. dumbest class you ever had to take though in high school or college in high school we didn't have a whole lot of classes small school college i ended up taking and i liked it but i took racquetball and i was amazed i took bowling too i was amazed you could get credits for that yeah i took power walking that's number of nine that's a good one that's a good one did you actually have to show up uh yes and it's harder than you would think because you are graded you can't run there's a fine line between a slow jog and a power walk amen amen and you have to get it just right you're you? I took non-speaking Spanish, but I failed that one. So, like, I thought I did non-speaking

because I came from a speaking household thinking I was going to ace it. I failed it. Oh, I thought you meant like non-speaking where you could say a single word. And everybody just trust each other than no Spanish. No. No, no. It was called life and transition. It was high school freshman year and it was like supposed to teach you how to adjust to high school life, note-taking, organize your binder, everything. But mine was the second semester because some people took it first semester. Mine was second semester. So I'd been high school for six months and it was like we're already doing here you need to put tabs in a binder

and it was like you had already transitioned I've already transitioned for you man good for you man all right thank you let's go over to Amy and get in the morning corny the morning corny what is Austin powers put on his mashed potatoes at Thanksgiving what? Groovy baby gravy gravy gravy baby

oh should I say it that way yeah gravy baby Dang it. Yeah. Gravy, baby. You got to say like Austin Power, then. Gravy. Yeah. You know it's not groovy, though, gravy.

Oh, okay. Because he says groove. I know he does, so I thought. Did you change the joke from what it said? You thought gravy was wrong? No, no. It said groovy. Gravy.

Groovy. No, gravy, baby. Gravy. You know what it's funny, guys. That was the morning. Morning. Cool, cool, cool, cool. All right, thank you guys. Bobbi Bones Show. Bonehead.

This story comes with us from North Dakota. A 50-year-old woman was out to brunch over the weekend having a few drinks when she's walking down the street and she sees a cop in uniform. And she loves a man in uniform walks up behind him and pop smacks him on the butt. Can't do that. And the cop said it caused pain so he placed her under arrest. What? I mean, she was just... You can't slap a cop on the butt.

Okay. If a guy did that to a girl. I know, I know. Jail time. I know. You're right. It would still be sexual harassment. Yeah, you're right.

Sorry. Yes. This is wrong. She's a bone head. I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day. This guy's watching the local news. His name's Randy Waits.

He noticed the guy being interviewed also had the last name, Waits, spelled exactly the same. So he called his daughter over and he's like, hey, that guy looks like, my dad. She was like, okay, so she started digging on the internet, mostly through social media. Then they started to go through some old, like, registry, birth certificate stuff, and found out that was his brother. He didn't even know until they saw him on TV. Oh, my goodness. Until I saw him being interviewed.

But it's weird they had the same last name, though. Yeah. Because a lot of times this happens, and somebody was adopted, the name was changed, but he had the same last name. And again, he just thought, that guy looks like my dad. And then he said, well, and we have the same last name. Is it possible? So they talked on the phone. they then reunited

and now they're brothers and they hang out which is a whole new elderly like you just have somebody that you hang out with because that's a hard thing because you have a lot of people in your life that you just know

but you don't have a lot of people that you just hang out as an adult it's hard to make new friends that you just hang out with so that's his new brother congratulations he also did not know his dad that well and the other brother did

and so they're able to share that experience too I never want to chase that down on the news I'd have been like hey look at that That's the same last name. All right. Looks like me. And I forgot about it. Moving on.

Yeah, five seconds later. That's from the New York Post. We will see you tomorrow. Bye, everybody. The Bobby Bones Show. Happy New Year. The Bobby Bones Show theme song, written, produced, and sang by Reed Yarberry. You can find his Instagram at Reed Yarberry.
