In the middle of the text there. Good. Yeah, thanks. Good, man. Good, good, good. It's time to book your holiday flights this week if you're going somewhere. For Thanksgiving or Christmas. All, it's just the cheapest time right now this week that you're going to find.

So if you're planning on going somewhere, don't wait past this week because then they really, here's what happens. They get booked and they get more expensive. Not because you get closer to the holidays, but because they start filling up. And when there are no seats left, the seats get more expensive. That's why they're more expensive. When the plane's wide open, their cheapest can be. It's like going buying a sucker to the store.

How? I don't understand that one. The more seats there are. I don't know the sucker analogy. Hey, cheapest thing you're going to get in the store. That's the cheapest seats you're going to get. When ain't nobody on the plane. I got it. I got you.

Got you now. Secondly, when there are no seats left, that's why they cost so much because they know you got to get on this seat. If you're buying that ticket, there's two seats left, they can charge you whatever they want. That's why they're so expensive. So get them now.

This week is the best time to buy tickets. This is from the New York Post. Ticket price are expected to start going up at least $10 a week for the next few weeks and then $10 a day as you get closer from Thanksgiving to Christmas. So it ain't cheap to fly ever even when you're buying suckers, but you definitely want to get it while you can. I don't think we're, I mean, we'll drive. That's what's good about us.

Caitlin and I grew up around the same place. So we can just make the drive trip all the way through. It's just a loop. Oh, that's cool. Arkansas, Oklahoma, turn around and come back home. So a song I sing to remember where we're going. Wow, man, that's good. There's a lot of stops. Arkansas and Oklahoma.

So there's that. A man and his teenage son of Florida were arrested after they shot a female neighbor after they got a ring alert about someone being at their door. Here we go. They jumped to the conclusion of it was a burglar, but it was a neighbor returning a package that was delivered to their address by mistake. Oh, gosh. She's okay, but she got shot.

I mean, who reacts that way? Somebody who probably shouldn't have a gun. Okay. Yeah, paranoid, I mean, right? Yeah, it's someone who's not making a great decision with a gun. So you shouldn't have a gun. Neighbors bring my packages all the time. Oh, man.

A doorbell camera alerted a father and a son that someone was outside. And so they're like, all right, let's go. They armed themselves. They went out to find who they suspected of burglary and fired seven shots into the car of a woman who was parked outside of her own apartment. Seven? Okay, that's that little. Again, this is somebody who shouldn't have a gun if you ask me, in my opinion. Anybody that makes a decision like this shouldn't have a gun to be able to make a decision like this.

And don't you feel bad for the kid? I mean, the kid is just doing what his dad raised him and taught him how to do. Like, I don't know. Polk County Sheriff said there was never a burglar, just a person who triggered the doorbook camera because they were returning a package. She's alive and well. Yeah, she's a lot. Yeah, it didn't kill him. It didn't kill him.

From Fox 13. How lucky, seven shots. I didn't say what the gun was, what kind of shot it was. If it was a handgun or a shotgun or birdshot, slug, I don't know what it was. It was a bad shot, whatever it was. Maybe the car. Oh, deflected it. Yeah, that's what stopped it.

There's a priest was carjacked in Philadelphia on Sunday night. Well, that's not good. Oh, man. Four men jumped the priest while he was on a low new wheelchair from his trunk. A wheelchair? It's terrible. Yeah, they're on that bullet train to hell. Yeah, usually it's an elevator that...

That's bullet train. Uh-huh. It's getting there fast. Yeah, it's like they're not even all the way dead, and they're already punching their ticket. Yeah, that's terrible. Yeah, that sucks. Police say a priest was carjacked in Philadelphia's Kensington neighborhood on Sunday night.

Four men approached the priest. What do they think the priest has? Unless somebody dressed at the priest for Halloween. I think he has a wallet full of cash? Yeah, probably not. Authority said the four men approached the priest while he was unloading a wheelchair. One of the men pulled out the gun. A man then pulled out the person,

seating in the passenger seat and they got the car. I mean, that's what they wanted, right? Authorities say the priest and the passenger were not injured, thank goodness. The priest is with a group that provides services to the homeless. The community is also the owner

of the vehicle, which does work for the homeless. The investigation is ongoing. When reached for comments, Satan said, yeah, we'll see him soon. Missouri School goes virtual. After testing shows, it's a radiation hotbed. Oh, God.

What in the world? Can you imagine? Where is this in, what did you say? In the state of Missouri. Missouri. Because I read an article recently where like there was a school where everyone 20 years, that graduated 20 years ago is now getting cancer and they're thinking it's because there was radiation.

I read that too. But it doesn't sound like it's the same one because I think it was in Maryland. Yeah. I think so too. Do we talk about them in this show? Maybe. Missouri Elementary School switch into an all virtual instructional instruction. after tests found high levels of radioactive contamination.

Hazelwood School Board President Betsy Rachel spoke at a packed board meeting last night and offered her apologies. Quote, as we told you, tests of soil samples from Jana Elementary School in fluorescent showed high levels of radioactive lead, including inside the school's cafeteria and the library and the playground. The school sits in a floodplain that was contaminated by water from a nuclear bomb and a bomb plant made World War II. the works to move students to other schools.

That's like long-term scary. Like, oh, wow, that sucks, but it's also like, uh-oh, what's... Yeah. You know, that's from St. Louis Public Radio. Eddie, the story you're talking about. More than 100 people who went to the same high school now have brain tumors. That's it. After some digging, a man who attended Colonia High School in Woodbridge, New Jersey,

discovered more than 100 former students, staff members had been diagnosed with the same sort of brain tumor diagnosed in his wife's sister and himself. Crazy. Yeah, like they went to the high school 20 years ago or something. quote when I started looking into it, I quickly amassed 15 of our classmates with these rare brain tumors. I went on Facebook March 7 and said, hey, you guys help me find other people? And now, 117 individuals with primary brain tumors and another 70 with very rare cancers. Wow.

Oh, my gosh. I have goosebumps. You wonder what was going on there. That's something was going, like something was happening. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Something similar probably. It's like that Aaron Brockovich.

Or possibly to what was happening there. It could be something in the water. It could be something radioactive. that is a crazy number. You know, I have a buddy of mine who lives in Ohio, and there is an old nuclear plant. Like, that was a nuclear plant like 20 years ago. It's shut down now, but they still need people to kind of break it down and clean it. And they pay a lot of money for people to go work there and clean it up.

And I know two people that work there. And they're like, you know what? We need the money. And we're like, but that's so dangerous. And they're like, we don't care. We're going to do it anyway. And they pay a lot of money for it, but it's just tough. So you're going to a old radiation plan.

What sucks is if you don't have money to pay bills. You do that's what you have to do. Yeah. It's sad. It sucks. Yeah, it's a bad story. Cops find an illegal kangaroo hidden in a man's closet. Is it you?

I wish you'd call me. Take care of that. I come take care of that kangaroo real quick. What you need? Fist fight. Okay. Boxing gloves. How do you get this thing out of here?

You know, I'll whoop that thing's butt. Okay. A little Stin, Pennsylvania man, has been hit with fines after it was discovered. He was trying to sell a kangaroo. over Facebook. Cole Williams had pleaded guilty to unlawful importation of wildlife and failing to get permit charges. A concerned citizen saw the Facebook post offering up the marsupial at a

price, contacted authorities, with search warrant in hand, authorities entered the house and found a kangaroo hidden in a bedroom closet. It wasn't dead though, right? Yeah, just illegal. Yeah, I'm looking at it. Guys, I would destroy this kangaroo. He's a little. No, it's normal. Normal kangaroo. This kangaroo would spend about two minutes in the ring with me. And it'd hitpity hop out of there. It'd be like, what's the next plane ticket to Australia?

Oh, there's no ring. It's going to be a cage. Whatever. Then it can't run. It can't hippity hop away because that's trying to hipity hop out. I'm going to punch it in the back. Okay. My kidney punch this thing.

We're talking so much crap all these years. Kangaroo and act like you can do something. Tell me something bad. Do you want one of these? Oh, man, yeah. Tell me something bad. I saw this yesterday. It's sad.

So this kid rented an airplane for like a date. He's a pilot. So when you say kid, 17, 18? Old enough to fly. Yeah. I mean, it seemed like he was 19 or 20. 20? Yeah.

21. Okay. So he's in Georgia. He rented a plane. He's a college student. And where I went to school, that you could rent planes because they taught.

Aviation. Yeah. They had pilot classes. Aviation, yeah. They fly all the time. We had friends. I had friends that are pilots now, and I'm like, man,

I can't believe people fly with them. but they got the small plane and it landed safely he got out of the plane and walked right into the propeller killed him. No! No, no, no.

Oh, oh, you said he landed a great... The plane was rented as part of a date during which the couples traveled to Savannah, Georgia and... No. That's not. Oh, my God.

From the Statesboro, Harold. When you said, oh, he landed... I said, tell me something bad. We think it's gonna be. I know, but I thought you were tricking us. I was like, he was like, he landed it perfectly and I was like, oh. And then, oh, oh, that was so bad.

That sucks, huh? Yeah. Let's tell me something bad. That's why we don't do that story. Oh, man. I thought it was a trick and then he's going to get out of the plane and propose or something. Do you want to hear it tell me something worse? No.

Are you serious? I'm good. I know, yes. Let's go. What you got? There's not. There's not. I just wanted to see if you guys would eat that out because I knew you would, y'all.

Don't do it again. Okay, I'll take more. Yeah. Oh, no. Okay. Let me hear it. I mean, we all got, oh. Nestle is recalling some tollhouse cookie dough products because they may be contaminated with white

plastic pieces. Oh. That's tell me something bad. Well, that's not as bad as that. Let's tell me something inconvenient. Yeah, can't you eat plastic? Yes. Eat plastic all the time. Probably not great for you. It's coming out. It's fine. It's been so much you eat. Nestle is recalling certain Toll House cookie dough products due to concerns that

there may be contaminated white plastic pieces in it. Oh, contaminated. That's a big word. I think that's just plastic, though. All that is. Yeah. And the Swiss-based food company says it issued a recall for the ready-to-bake, refrigerated Nestle Toll House stuffed chocolate chip cookie dough with fudge filling. That's a lot. You went to the store and you bought Nestle House stuffed chocolate chip cookie dough with fudge filling.

I probably have that. Yeah. That is intense. That is intense. And then a small number of consumers said that there was some plastic in it. You said Nestle is a Swiss company? Nestle. It's what it says.

Never knew that. Makes sense. Nestle. Nesle. I have no idea. New York Post had that. story. Ninety-six-year-old Dick Van Dyke spotted giving cash to homeless people and talking with them. That's cool. When asked for comment, he said, I thought this was my family. That's what I'm

going to say, does he know who he's given it to? Stop. That's really what I thought. He's actually really with it for 96. I see him sometimes in an interview. He's got a young wife too. How young? Of course. Uh, younger for 96. I mean, what's young for 96? 80? 80. Yeah. I think she's like 60 or something. That's really young. Wow. I think, oh, she's 50. She's 50. She's 50. Okay. That's really, really young. Because I still see Dick Van Dyke's doing stuff.

And I love Dick Van Dyke's show. I love Mary Tyler Moore, which she was on that show. He was in Space Balls? He was? He's got a crazy beard, though. So he looks like, if you were just seeing him in a T-shirt, it looks like someone that has just let himself go, which is why he was like, hey, I thought this is.

But he... That's the equivalent of me dating an 85-year-old. How about it? At 41. Whatever makes you feel good, you know? Arlene Silver's, is her name? I'm a look around. But has there ever been a happier person?

I mean, the guy does a little dance, a little step. Dick Van. I love Dick Van Dyke. Ray Mundo got invited to a dinner with members of Congress. Yeah. I don't even know what this means. Just clickbait again? I'm telling you, I know a little bit about it, and it's not straight clickbait to us.

Okay. Meaning he's not tricking us. I think he could be getting, not scammed, but I think there could be a little something to it. Ray, please tell him your story. Yeah, so this representative, she's in Tennessee, she invited a bunch of people. people, I believe, from also in Congress, there's a guy from Louisiana going, and they're all meeting at this house. And I think they're going to talk about Congress, government, all kinds of stuff. And I got invited because I'm part of the media. Some of the people attending this are paying

thousands. I, because of media can go for free. They told you, you can come, eat, hang, chill, stay the night. Yep. Well, I didn't ask about staying the night. That was going to be my next question because it's four hours away to get there. Yeah. It's not really a place you can fly to, but this would be crazy. When is it? You know? It's tomorrow night. Why don't you go? I do want to go. I do want to ask them if I could possibly stay at the house because it is seven bedrooms, nine baths.

Why don't you go? I have no problem with you. We'll cover you. What's he going to do there other than eat their food? I have no idea and that's what I want to know. I want him to go and just report back at what they did to him. Oh.

Because I don't think they expect him to come. Yeah. Well, I mean, they responded right away to the email and I believe they've had media people come before, but they said everything would be comped and paid for. But yeah, my next question was going to be, do you guys do hotel stays or do we stay at the house because it is so large? It's like a castle that we're meeting at. Hey, Scooby, if Ray wanted to go to this, could we let them off Friday?

Yeah, why not? Let's do it. Yeah, back up some place. We could totally do it. Dude, you should go and represent our show and make a difference. Well, I don't think I'm speaking. I'm just there and listen and learn and eat. But yeah, they're giving speeches.

It's Diana Harshberger. She's the one that invited me. Why don't know if I want to represent any particular political party? But you can represent us, yes. You can represent whoever. Yeah, I'm not saying I'm like Democrat or Republican. I'm just going. I don't care what you do. I just want you to go. You dress up like an elephant donkey? I don't give a crap.

No, they said business casual. I mean, I don't even know what she is. She's a U.S. representative for Tennessee. What does that mean? It's like the person who invited Ray in Florida to stay at their house. They're trying all these tactics to get them to come over. She's a pharmacist. Wait, you don't know what a U.S. representative means? They have real jobs because they don't get...

Okay, what does she do, Eddie? She's a representative for the United States. No, for Tennessee. I know. She's on the House of Representatives. No, a different. So there's a different. State representative? But it says United States representative. Not a state representative. Okay. Okay, there you go.

So she represents Tennessee in the House of Representatives in Washington. How do you not know this? He does. I don't think it. She is a pharmacist and she is. They need a real job because it's not a big. That job pays like $30 grand a year, I think. Mike, would you look at how much they make?

I don't even understand. being a house representative. Yeah, they all have real jobs and real lives. Except for the really rich ones. Oh, and most of them get to run for office because they're really rich. Yeah. Which is why it's a broken system because you've got a bunch of people who aren't rich, being represented by people who really are rich,

who don't really care about the people that aren't that rich. Correct. And what they do is they go, I'm just like you. We believe the same stuff. And they just find ways to get themselves richer. Yeah, in reality, they're not protecting you in any way whatsoever. He's reading in, like, very careful. I don't understand what she, I don't know what.

Yeah, we don't, I don't, the president makes $400,000 a year. I can read you this list. Okay. Vice president makes $230,000 a year. Speaker of the House makes $223,000. House majority and minority leaders make $193,000. House Senate members, 174. She'd be below that.

Mm-hmm. Chief Justice Supreme Court, 258. Associate Justice Supreme Court 246. And then I don't see. There's no representative? I don't know, but Mike do a little dig in there. Maybe state representatives make like $30,000 a year. But I think they have to have a job, too.

Okay, I just don't know. I mean, I had no idea what she does. Like, I'm just reading it. So she is something of the tri-city areas of northeastern Tennessee. Is that what it is, Mike? That much for that job. Wow, it's pretty good. If that's accurate, 174 for the national representative.

Really? Everybody starts to go. Well, maybe I would like to run for office. Sounds nice. Dang. Ray, you should try to go. Yeah, it would be an honor to represent the Bobby Bone Show to Congress. And you ask a question like that.

Excuse me, Ray here from the Bobby Bone Show? I could. And then you answer a question. You go, Ray here from sore losers. I'm like, wait, you just said, well, both. I represent both. And then they're going to be like, all right, who of you guys are staying the night here? And then it's just a house party?

Because, I mean, I imagine some of these people, they're traveling from all over the place. I believe that is the setup where some people would just end up going over until the next day. Yeah, or a hotel. I mean, it's in a Johnson City. I don't even know if that place is a city. Yeah, Bristol, Johnson City, it's Tri-Cities over there. There's a lot. That's where the racetrack is. You know I heard it in the song? Johnson City. Tennessee. It's right in the Virginia, Tennessee border. Yeah. If there is one, there's one. No, no. What are you talking about?

It's a decent-sized town. It's a trick called the Tri-Cities. Gotcha. Yeah. That'd be hotels. But you should hit them up. Say, hey, can I stay the night? Just see what they say. Gotcha. All right. I think that's going to be it. I, let me tell you a little story about me. I guess might have a tell you story about me. You need music? Nah. It's going to be like five second story.

Woke up about 2 o'clock this morning. Couldn't go back to sleep. Oh, man. Sogs. I fell asleep too early last night. Eight. Woke up about two. Wide open.

Mother. That's what it felt like. Yeah, that's not good. Lay there for a little bit. Couldn't do anything. And I think Mike knows when he starts to get emails at 2.30. It's going to be a long or really short day because I'm going to be really tired if it's a long day. Or I'm going to be like, I got to go.

So we're going to finish this. got a couple other things to do, but I think we're going to wrap this up here. Everybody feel good? Yeah, can you nap today? You squeeze that in? Dennis appointment a little bit, which is good. I have a therapy appointment in a little bit.

Yeah, it's no nap. So if I do, maybe I just, I don't know, get a 10, 15 seconds while I drive. No, you got to play Matt while you drive. That's funny. Okay. All right, thank you guys, and that is all. Bye, everybody.
