This is an I-Heart podcast.
Guaranteed Human.
On paper, the three hosts of the Nick Dick and Poll show are geniuses.
We can explain how AI works, data centers,
but there are certain things that we don't necessarily understand.
Better version of Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes.
Yes.
Which, by the way, wasn't Taylor Swift, who said that for the first time.
I actually thought it was.
I got that wrong.
But hey, no one's perfect.
We're pretty close, though.

Hey, I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist and hosts of the podcast, a slight change of plans,
a show about who we are and who we become when life makes other plans.
I wish that I hadn't resisted for so long the need to change.
We have to be willing to live with a kind of uncertainty that none of us likes.
You can have opinions. You can have
like a strong stance.
And then there's your body
having its own program.
Listen to a slight change of plans
on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
It's Financial Literacy Month,
and the podcast, Eating While Broke,
is bringing real conversations
about money, growth, and building your future.
This month, hear from top streamer,
Zoe Spencer, and venture capitalist
Lakeisha Landrum-Pierre,
as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up.
There's an economic component to communities thriving.
If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they fail.
Listen to Eating While Broke from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
This is Amy Roboc alongside T.J. Holmes from the Amy and T.J. podcast.
And there is so much news, information, commentary coming at you all day and from all over the place.
What's fact, what's fake, and sometimes what the F.
So let's cut the crap, okay?
Follow the Amy and T.J.
Podcast, a one-stop news and pop culture shop to get you caught up and on with your day.
And listen to Amy and T.J. on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
I hope you had a great weekend. Welcome to Monday show.
Morning.
Amy's about to hit us with her word of the year.
Last year, the word of the year was alignment for you.
Do you feel like 2025 was aligned?
Yes.
Okay.
The year before that was water because you wanted to be more fluid.
Yeah, I should have had kept that as one.
I wouldn't be more fluid and I wanted to drink more water.
And right now I am dehydrated.
Okay. So it's now time.
If we can get a drum roll, please for Amy's word that she's going to dedicate her life to in 2026.
Yes, a little mantra of sorts.
Go ahead.
Less.
Less.
Less.
Less what?
Less everything.
Like you name it.
Less things.
More experiences.
Less texting.
More meals together.
Get it.
See you less, but you replace it as something more.
Less wanting, more contentment with what I have.
Less screen time.
More interactions or even time for creating.
Got it.
Get it?
Some people say less is more.
I've heard that before.
Yes.
But she wants less of some things to have more of other things.
Yes.
Less overshare.
more building and silence.
So that means your segments are going to be shorter?
No, I think less.
No, sometimes I get real excited about something.
Less spoilers on movies?
I put it out there and I start talking about it.
Like even if it's just amongst friends,
but I say I'm working on something or I have an idea.
I start to like put it all out there.
So less over sharing on that stuff and more building and silence.
And then if it comes to fruition and actually happens,
then I get to share more about it.
Because then I feel like a loser when I don't.
Like I have this idea.
and I start talking to people about it, and then I don't follow through.
And then I'm like, well, I suck.
Less of that.
Eddie, last year your word was slow.
Really?
Yeah, because you said you wanted to live life at a slower pace, speak slower.
And that didn't really happen.
Like, I still talk fast.
And I wanted to be like, you know, Bobby, I thought about what you said.
But I can't do that.
Like, I have to talk fast.
So you didn't stay with your word last year.
No, no, no.
Okay, what is your word for 2026?
This time, serious.
And this goes with that.
I'm serious. I'm serious about the things I'm going to do. I'm no longer going to be a joking. Just anything, man. Donating things? Easy. But if I say something, which I'll be a little more careful to say certain things, if I say, I want to be serious about it. So your word for 2026 is serious.
Okay. Lunchbox, your word last year was moving as far as business growth. Yeah. Making moves. And I did that. I did make moves. I attempted to make moves. How did you make a move? We want to know.
I got on that one show for Pigeon Forge, the tourist committee.
That wasn't really a show.
It was a YouTube.
It was content.
It was still something.
How did you get that?
They reached out to me.
Okay.
Yeah.
It was great, but it was content.
Okay.
I mean, there was multiple episodes.
So I don't know.
I consider that a show, but maybe I don't, whatever.
And then I also tried to make, like, I mean, I tried for the job at, you know, the professional soccer club here in town.
I tried to get on prices right.
So, I mean, making moves is what was more of trying to do things.
Like, he didn't necessarily have to get them.
So you didn't make moves, but you tried to make moves last year.
No, no.
You had, if I didn't try.
Okay, what's your word this year?
That's the thing.
Oh, you don't have one?
I was trying to think of something, like, what's going to, like, what is 2026 going to mean for me?
And I decided that my word of the year
is grab.
Grab what?
Sounds like we need to get HR in here.
Yep.
What are you grabbing?
Opportunity.
Grabbing my future and taking a hold of it.
Isn't that other way of saying?
Moving part of two?
Yeah, it's the same as the moves.
Or grab.
Grab a butt.
Food and gift bags.
Oh yeah, steal.
Oh, that works.
Yeah.
Okay, so he goes on like grab.
No, no, no.
It doesn't matter.
We're going to give everybody.
No, I like you.
Grab the bull by the horns.
right. That's what I'm saying. But isn't that moving though? It's what you said last year.
Now that you say that, I didn't realize it was, but it does kind of sound like that. But that's good. He's got a theme. He's got maybe grab a little bit of different energy. I don't want to have the same word two years a row. I didn't realize they meant the same thing. So let me go back to the drawing board.
Okay, I'll come back. We'll circle back. Yeah, circle back. Circle back.
Mine last year was DGAF. Tried to not be as rigid so I could just not care as much to.
to foster a bit more creativity.
I feel like I did four out of ten.
Okay.
I still cared.
I was still pretty rigid.
I was never late once.
I tried to be late once.
I know.
That was the one.
Did you have that?
I think my word for this year is going to be positive.
Because I have the tendency for anything that's happening.
I just have worst case scenario in my head all the time.
Like anything that happens, that's probably not going to work out.
Like, it could.
I'm just going to be more positive about possible outcomes.
Because I have quite a few positive outcomes.
but I'm never positive about them.
And then afterward I'm like,
I wish you were just to be more positive about that.
I wouldn't have put myself through whatever stress I put myself through
and it ended up pretty great.
So I'm going to be more positive situationally about things.
Nice.
Okay, hold on.
So like when we text about games and I say like, hey, dude, it's okay.
I think we got this.
No, you're jinxing it.
But see, that's positive.
Can you do that with sports?
Are you going to be able to be positive with sports outcomes?
I don't think so.
I think it's more about just my things I can control.
I'll be positive about that.
All right.
So we're still going to be negative with this first thing.
Well, not all things you can control.
Yeah, but I have an influence.
Or things I can have an influence of.
Right.
You can't influence.
I can't influence Razorback football.
You can't.
Yeah.
That's them.
Lunchbox, circling back.
What's your word?
Yeah, I'm debate between two.
You guys help me out.
Healthy or friendly?
This is a interesting twist.
What do you mean by healthy?
What do you mean by friendly?
Both are weird.
Both are weird.
Like you're going to be healthy.
I think healthy's great because you have to get that testicle checked, obviously.
And I think...
He probably is dying to feel back to normal.
Like, I know he's not been able to run,
and that's such an important part of his overall well-being.
Go with healthy because I don't want to see a fail.
And healthy could be like being friendly is...
Could be under the healthy category.
Yeah, if you're healthy, maybe you're friendlier.
Okay.
We're going with healthy.
Go with healthy.
Okay, good.
Good luck, man.
Good luck with everybody's words.
Thanks.
Are you serious when you say that?
I'm definitely serious about it.
I'm positive.
You'll be healthy.
Thank you. Amy, are you? What was yours?
Less.
Hey, you'd be less.
You stay less.
I was listening to an episode back in 2018.
Bobby said that he didn't have any Christmas traditions yet because he didn't have a wife or kids.
And I know the baby hasn't came yet, but I was just wondering if Bobby had any traditions with his wife that they've been doing on Christmas.
Anyway, love the show, Clint from Mississippi.
Bye.
Clint, appreciate that.
not yet. My wife's family has a tradition of they watch Elf on Christmas Eve. And I've said this before
that we didn't really have, sometimes we don't only have Christmas. Not really. And we definitely
didn't have any traditions growing up. So the first time I went over to their house on Christmas Eve and
everybody laid in pallets on the floor and watched Elf, it was really foreign to me. Now I look forward to it.
And we were in Fayetteville for this Christmas. And it was a little different because people were coming in.
Like all those kids in that family now have their own kids, so it's harder to get everybody
together.
But we all got together for a little bit, and Elf was on.
But the kids are so little, it's hard to get everybody to watch Elf.
Yeah.
To watch anything, because the kids are running around all over the place.
But, yeah, I think probably next year we'll start that.
I've kind of just been taking in on some of their traditions for now.
But Christmas was good.
It was warm as crap.
I know.
That part felt weird.
Weird.
I liked it.
Like Arkansas Keith came up on Christmas.
He drove up to Fayvilleville, and we went and walked.
from the football stadium because it was warm.
That's cool. Yeah. Oh, like, can you just go do that if you want to or do you have to have
a special? No, outside. We ended up going in a gate and the cops came and got us.
But so yes and no, we just went and walked around Razorback Stadium because he's not up there a whole lot.
I was like, hey, nobody's out. It's Christmas Day. Let's just go walk around. We looked at the statues
and stuff. There were like hog statues. And I said, well, I know somewhere we can probably kind of get into a gate
had no connection. The gate was unlocked. We walked. We walked. We walked.
walk through 20 steps after that. Excuse me, guys. And he's a little scared because, well, it's a cop and he's a law
abider. And I was like, oh, we're just walking around. The gate was open. I didn't hit him with the
flags or anything. Wow, they had security out there Christmas Day. They did. And they were on it.
So no traditions yet. Although that would be fun. We go walk around the stadium.
No, that is. Let me tell you. Maybe you and Keith can have that.
All right. Hit me with the next one.
I'm a little late on your podcast
But listening to the 12 days of Christmas
Eddie you ruined it
How you said salsa
Every time they told you to stop saying it
And you kept doing it
You ruined it
Love the show, bye
Wow
Ruined it
I would say we got the joke
After the first couple
You didn't have to keep doing the joke over
I don't know how else to say it
Yeah I don't think it's a joke
It is because he doesn't say salsa like that every time
Salsa
No you don't say that every time
I thought it was funny
Also speaking of Eddie Salsa
that was really good
because he gifted it.
A little too hot.
Real spicy.
I don't want to like pee on his gift.
Dang, guys.
But I text,
Caitlin says,
what are you texting Eddie?
His sauce is too hot.
She said,
he gave that to you.
Why would you critique someone's gift?
I think the critique is necessary.
I'm with you on that because I think should he gift us more?
We need to dial it back on the heat a little bit.
But other than that,
so delicious.
So dial back on the heat,
but you guys definitely want more side side.
Yes.
but the heat was unbearable.
Like we need it this week.
I'm already out.
And I'm as Caucasianly taste budded as possible.
Meaning I don't like hot stuff.
And it was still really good.
I just thought through it.
But it was a little hot.
And my wife said, why would you message him about something free?
I said, because he wants the feedback because he wants to give it to us again.
And your text was like, does this one a little hotter than the last one?
I was a little nice about it.
You are.
You're nice about it.
I got a double up gift during Christmas.
And this is just my mom.
wife's mine versus mine. And so I was given a gift and I opened it and it was something I already
had and I immediately was going to go, oh, this is cool. I already have one of these. And before I got
that out, she goes, don't say it. Because she knew where I was going to go. I was like, but I already
have what? Should I tell them? She goes, no, just accept the gift and say thank you. And then you
can figure it out later. But I wasn't saying. Don't worry about it. That's not important.
Is it something he got you? My other Mexican friend gave me ta-ta. So when Eddie gave me his.
Oh. No. No, it was nobody from here. Okay.
If it was, I would definitely say it.
So have you dealt with that?
I just have two of them now.
Okay.
Yeah, because like, how do you deal with it?
Oh, we went to return something?
My boyfriend was like, they wanted to know, like, maybe the phone number associated with it.
And so then he had to guess the person's number because they needed to look up the order.
And then he was like, but no, no, no, no, no.
Because if you return it, then they may get a text or an email.
And so he's like, scratch that, scratch that.
Because that's like the worst.
Okay, I gave it away.
who do you give it to?
I'm not saying that.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Oh, you re-gifted it?
Yeah, that's funny.
Because giving it away and re-gifting is different.
Because you might be like, oh, hey man, here's this.
But did you wrap it and give it to somebody else?
I didn't wrap it, but I gave it away during the Christmas time.
So it felt like a Christmas gift.
Interesting.
Yeah.
So I kept the spirit going, is how I see it.
That's beautiful.
But I literally was going to go, oh, thanks, I already have one of these.
But she says, shut up.
Like, you're not doing it.
I was doing it.
I was doing a purpose.
Yeah.
Ray, give me number
The next one, four
I just got out of prison a month ago
and I made it a month
and my first Christmas
and I want to say
anybody out there
who thinks they can't do it
do it
because if I used to be a
drug dealing,
nobody, anybody can be anything
now I'm about to go to college
and do what I do.
Let's go.
Anybody can be anything.
I agree the world is bendable.
Okay.
Well, you aren't motivated by that?
No, I am.
I'm like, okay.
So he's been out a month?
My first Christmas,
I wanted to say
I've made it a month.
That's cool.
One day at a time, bro.
That's right.
Anybody can be anything.
Go do what you do.
It sounds like he got rehabilitated in there.
He's going to college.
I know.
Yeah.
I watched a really good show over the break.
I don't know if I should just wait for Tuesday Reviews Day.
I did also, on Tuesday Reviews Day.
I saw my first, and it was the only movie of all of 2025 that I'm giving five stars to.
Whoa, you never do that.
I never do.
It's a movie.
And I did not plan to watch it.
Maybe I do it in the podcast today.
Regardless, I watch my first five-star movie.
I have so many things to talk about.
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 life.
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 podcast,
a dream, this is right where you need to be. Listen to the Clifford show on the IHeart radio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. And for more behind the scenes, follow at Clifford
and at TikTok Podcast Network on TikTok. I feel like it was a little bit unbelievable until I
really start making money. It's Financial Literacy Month and the podcast Eating While Broke is
bringing real conversations about money, growth, and building your future. This month,
hear from top streamer Zoe Spencer
and venture capitalist Lakeisha Landrum-Pierre
as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up.
If I'm outside with my parents
and they're seeing all these people come up to me for pictures,
it's like, what?
Today now, obviously, it's like 100%.
They believe everything, but at first it was just like,
you got to go get a real job.
There's an economic component to community striving.
If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities,
they fail.
And what I mean by fail is they don't have money
pay for food. They cannot feed their kids. They do not have homes. Communities don't work unless there's
money flowing through them. Listen to Eating While Broke from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the
IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
You can have opinions. You can have like a strong stance. And then there's your body
having its own program. I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist and hosts of the podcast,
slight change of plans, a show about who we are and who we become when life makes other plans.
We share stories and scientific insights to help us all better navigate these periods of
turbulence and transformation. There is one finding that is consistent, and that is that our
resilience rests on our relationships. I wish that I hadn't resisted for so long the need to change.
We have to be willing to live with a kind of uncertainty that.
none of us likes. Listen to a slight change of plans on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever
you get your podcasts. Hi, I'm Bob Pittman, chairman and CEO of IHeart Media, and I'm kicking

When you listen to podcasts about AI and tech and the future of humanity,
the hosts always act like they know what they're talking about,
and they are experts at everything.
Here, the Nick Dick and Poll show, we're not afraid to make mistakes.
What Cougler did that I think was so unique.
He's the writer-director.
Who do you think he is?
I don't know.
You meet the, like, the president?
You think Canada has a president?
You think China has a president?
Those law a rouset.
God, I love that thing.
I use it all the time.
I wrap it in a blanket and sing to it at night.
It's like the old Polish saying, not my monkeys, not my circus.
Yep.
It was a good one.
I like that saying.
It is an actual Polish saying.
It is an actual poem.
Better version of Play Stupid Games, win stupid prizes.
Yes.
Which, by the way, wasn't Taylor Swift, who said that for the first time.
I actually, I thought it was.
I got that wrong.
Listen to the Nick, Dick, and Poll show on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
The segment we didn't do before the break, which Lunchbox suggested was, let's debate if Morgan's going to get engaged.
And Amy is the one that said, hey, we shouldn't do it.
Yeah, because he wanted everyone to go around and give their percentages.
Like, what's the likelihood Morgan's going to get engaged?
And I felt like, I really didn't think it was going to happen.
but small chance that it would happen,
I wouldn't want to ruin that for her boyfriend
if he heard that and was like, oh, well, great.
Now they're all talking about how 100%
she's going to get engaged
because I know lunchbox probably thought it was 100%.
He thought it was 100. I was about 88.
Okay, I was at like 5%.
But I just felt like it was so close
to like what if it actually did happen,
I wouldn't want to, you know, disrupt any of his plans.
Like, I don't know how he would feel about that.
So Morgan got engaged over Christmas.
Yeah.
All right, Morgan.
Lunchbox, your thoughts?
This might be the most predictable engagement we've ever had in the world.
Like, I mean, it was just, I mean, it was so easily predicted.
We all knew it was happening.
And it, let's just.
Amy was at 5% to be fair.
For Christa, I knew that she felt like he was the one and it would likely happen.
I did, I was not on the train that it was happening Christmas break.
Well, let's just go over the timeline.
He's about to leave National.
He's giving up on life.
Like, he's moving back home.
with mom and dad.
Giving up on life?
Is that true?
I don't know if that's true.
Are you saying?
No, no.
He talked to the man upstairs like at 9.30 p.m.
He said, give me a sign that I'm supposed to say at now, stay in Nashville.
Two hours later at the bar, he meets Morgan.
Oh, yeah.
And then he's about to be homeless.
He's losing his place.
He's like, hey, can I move in with you?
Moves in with Morgan.
Christmas comes around.
He's like, man, I don't know what to get her.
I know.
I know what she'll take.
A ring.
Boom!
It was like it was all right out there.
Five months that were engaged. It's crazy.
It was longer than five months, Lodgebox.
The most predictable engagement in the history of engagement.
How long was it?
Well, let's talk to Morgan, guys.
Yeah, this is great.
Keep talking about me without my input.
First of all, congratulations.
That's not first of all.
That's like ninth of all.
You just did like eight things prior.
I'm very happy for you, excited for you.
But man, this was like, it was so easy.
Morgan, over to you.
You have the no interrupting stick now, lunchbox.
Did you know it's coming?
No, you have the no-in-row-up.
You can't talk.
Go ahead, Morgan.
Yeah, we got engaged, and it was awesome.
I was completely surprised in not knowing when it was going to happen.
We had gone and looked at rings together, so I knew we were going to get engaged.
Did you tell us that? No.
Okay.
No, that was something we did.
We only went once, and I just, I had no idea what I wanted.
I had no idea even about an engagement ring.
I'd never looked at engagement ring.
So we went and looked, and that was, I guess, all he needed.
and then he decided to propose.
He wanted it to be around my family.
He wanted it to be a complete surprise.
It's very difficult to surprise me because I'm,
I ask a lot of questions and I'm very inquisitive.
And he also wanted it to be a really pretty scene,
and him and I both really love Christmas, so it was perfect.
What town did you do then?
It was in Wichita, and it happened at Botanica,
which is like a family tradition for us.
We go every year as a family to,
it's like Botanica Gardens that they do 2 million Christmas lights.
and my sister and brother-in-law were also in on it,
and they helped him scope it out to find the best spot for the proposal.
Is it at Botanical Gardens?
Yeah.
Got it.
And you didn't know your parents?
Did they know?
He asked my dad.
But did he know it was coming?
No.
He didn't.
He said yes, and obviously he knew it was going to happen,
but he also wanted it to be a surprise for my mom,
so my mom did not know.
Was he acting weird leading up to it?
No, not until the very last,
as we're getting ready to go to Botanical.
garden. I caught him like sitting on the bed.
It's called botanica.
It is called botanica.
Okay, that's why it's botanical.
Can we just go in the gardens?
It is botanical gardens, but it's called botanica.
That makes sense for us.
Yes.
We didn't know that.
It was like Italian.
Yes.
Yeah, no.
I'll just say botanica.
When we were about to leave, he was sitting on the bed and he was just kind of
staring, his eyes were closed.
And I walked in and I was like, are you okay?
Are you good?
He's like, I was just contemplating my outfit for tonight.
And I was like, that was a little strange.
And that was the only moment where I was like, that was a little weird.
And then I started to pick up on little weird things throughout.
Like my sister kept looking around when we're at the gardens lunchbox.
And at that point I was like, okay, that's weird.
Who are you looking for?
Everybody's here.
And so I can look back and see all the things, but I wasn't piecing it together.
Because I didn't expect it to happen at that moment.
Lunchbox, you get one thing to say.
Positive.
No, I'm just happy for you.
There you go.
That's it.
You nailed it.
No, no.
Well, talk to her though.
Do you have an and?
What did you get you for Christmas?
There's another gift.
It was something custom that was special to us.
Okay.
Oh, that's cool.
I just wondered.
So does that mean now he doesn't have to pay rent?
No.
You share finances.
What's the homeless thing?
I've not heard the homeless.
Oh, he was losing his place, man.
He had an apartment.
He had a literal apartment.
That's Ray's story for sure.
No, I know.
But this was a lot.
I mean, I'm just saying Ray.
It wasn't similar.
He literally lived in an apartment.
and his lease was ending and he could either continue it or not.
And he chose not to.
We chose to move in together.
He still had the money to pay for an apartment.
So we say.
But that's all we do on this show is say.
We can say that towards anything.
Why would you say he does lunchbox?
He has a job.
So like where does his money go?
So we say he has a job.
Does he?
I mean, it's just, it was, I'm so happy for you.
I'm glad.
You sound it.
Just, I don't know.
I mean, you guys all saw it, right?
Saw what?
The predictability.
No.
What is that song to show?
A little predictability.
The new man, the paper boy, the evening TV.
There you go.
You're doing full house.
He's known in full house.
I think predictability in the way of like they had been together a while.
A while.
How long have you guys been together?
It's been about 10 months.
It's fine.
That's an adequate time.
It's almost a year.
And also I feel like, I feel like.
It is almost a year.
You can round it up two a year.
Well, earlier lunchbox said five months.
Exactly.
She went to him and was like, look, how did you let Abby get engaged for us?
That's definitely not what happened.
And then he was like, all right, fine.
Oh, you think the pressure from Abby getting engaged was done on him.
Yeah, like, she was like, hello, what are you doing?
And so then he was like, okay, I don't know.
It just, it's crazy.
Okay, that's also not what happened.
We went and looked at rings.
It was in October.
And from that moment forward, he was working with one of my friends in a jeweler to design the ring.
So it's been in the works before that happened.
There was no thing around her engagement whatsoever, completely separate.
So let's not do that one.
Were you this much of a hater at Abby's engagement?
I forget.
No, I mean.
He probably just didn't have the time.
He's hated on every, like when I got engaged 20 years ago, he was hating.
All the girls.
He's had a two week break.
Hold on her.
I did not hate on yours.
Yours was like three weeks and we all hated on yours.
We were shot.
And then the fact that you came in and said, you didn't hate on it, but you all hated on it.
No, but I hate, well, Bobby was in.
included.
Don't put me into this.
And the fact when you announced that I'm getting married on New Year's Eve, I was like,
oh my gosh, this is the worst engagement ever.
That was what I was really frustrated about.
So yeah.
Frustrated.
I don't know if I hated on Abby's because, I mean, they already, they've been together for like 12 years.
I don't know that they've been together a lot more than that.
I think you nailed it.
Oh, Abby, he's been together for three years.
Abby, how long has been together?
No, it's been two.
Oh, it has been two years?
It has been a long time.
You said 10.
Well, look, everybody's happy.
We're good.
What were you going to say, though?
You said but.
You said but earlier.
He wants you to be on his team.
We'll talk more about this on the podcast.
Check it out.
I mean, we're all happy for her, right?
Yes.
We're all very happy.
Absolutely.
But I did want to say that was the bit we talked about.
We were like, we're not doing this bit, but we may tell you on the other side.
And that's what it was.
Amy said, we're not doing that bit.
I am glad you guys didn't do it just for the fact that it would have put me on a track since he was doing it.
I would have been like, oh, maybe it is going to happen at Christmas.
And honestly, I just, he wanted to completely surprise me, and that's what he accomplished.
Congratulations.
No, nothing else on your box.
I'm not.
Hey, show the ring to the camera.
Where's the camera?
Congratulations.
There it is.
It's the anonymous inbox.
There's a question to be high.
Hello, Bobby Bones.
I'm 32.
Just found out I'm a dad.
First kid.
Still feels surreal.
I didn't grow up with the dad.
He wasn't around.
How do you navigate all these new feelings in the beginning?
the fear, the pressure.
Also, how did you tell your family?
I want this moment to be special,
but I also don't want to feel the weight of expectations.
I signed soon to be dad.
I don't have right answers on this.
I really didn't have to tell my family.
I didn't have a lot of family to tell.
We called Keith, Arkansas Keith.
And he was like, oh, yeah, how about that?
Because I think they just kind of gave up.
And Arkansas Keith was my stepdad at one point.
But we called her family.
Bam, bam, bam.
But I think to her,
ever tell you the story about me recording her parents?
So I was in charge of when we told them it was on FaceTime.
And it was on her phone.
Her mom and her dad were together.
And we told them that she's pregnant.
And I was in charge of recording their reaction.
And I guess I accidentally hit record before I was supposed to hit record.
So then when I hit record, I was turning it off.
So I missed them in all their reaction.
But then I hit record to turn it off.
And I thought it was on.
So what I did record was them.
after the reaction.
So you had no footage of the actual reaction.
Only before and after.
You had one job.
Yes.
Totally screwed that up.
Don't put all these pressures on yourself right now.
It's all going to happen anyway.
I don't know how to be a dad.
I'm not a dad yet.
But all this stuff, there's going to be a time and place for it.
But it's not productive to penalize yourself for something that hasn't happened yet.
So don't do that to yourself.
Don't hold yourself accountable for something you haven't even done wrong yet.
I think all that's natural though
I mean Eddie you could speak to it you were at first time dad the first time
yeah I don't think anyone is ready to be a dad
like I definitely was ready to be a dad but you figure it out man
and it's an awesome thing and you're gonna think that everything is impossible
but it's not and it all works out
how do you navigate all the new feelings
I think you don't have the opportunity to not navigate them
so you just know they're gonna come yeah and again don't penalize yourself
before you even do anything wrong
I think that's a big part of life
don't beat yourself up before it's time to
because sometimes you beat yourself up
and you don't even need to beat yourself up
whenever it comes
because you actually did a better job
than you thought you were going to.
I think community is big too.
Like, ask your buddies who are other dads too.
Like, hey, what do you do here?
I ain't doing that.
Hey, man, I'm here whenever you need me.
I'm good, though.
What, you're just going to figure it out?
I don't have any buddies I'm going to go to.
I'm right here.
Lunchbox is right here.
I'm all good.
Thank you though.
Thank you for offering.
I'm all good.
Just know, this is all normal and natural.
That's super exciting for you.
It's very normal.
It's very natural.
But don't be mean to yourself
because something that hasn't happened yet.
So you got this.
There are much dumber people than you that have been great dads.
That's what I say to myself.
That is true.
They're way dumber friends of yours that have been good dad.
So if they can do it, you can do it.
All right, there you go.
All right, it's time to play the Bobby Feud.

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.

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.

I'm Dr. Maya Shunker, a cognitive scientist and host of a host of a person.
the podcast, a slight change of plans, a show about who we are and who we become when life makes
other plans. We share stories and scientific insights to help us all better navigate these periods
of turbulence and transformation. There is one finding that is consistent, and that is that
our resilience rests on our relationships. I wish that I hadn't resisted for so long
the need to change. We have to be willing to live with a kind of uncertainty.
that none of us likes.
Listen to a slight change of plans on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I feel like it was a little bit unbelievable until I really start making money.
It's Financial Literacy Month, and the podcast, Eating While Broke, is bringing real conversations about money, growth, and building your future.
This month, hear from top streamer, Zoe Spencer, and venture capitalist Lakeisha Landrum Pierre,
as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up.
If I'm outside with my parents and they're seeing all these people come up to me for pictures,
it's like, what?
Today now, obviously, it's like 100%.
They believe everything.
But at first, it was just like, you got to go get a real job.
There's an economic component to communities thriving.
If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they fail.
And what I mean by fail is they don't have money to pay for food.
They cannot feed their kids.
They do not have homes.
Communities don't work unless there's money.
flowing through them.
Listen to Eating While Broke from the Black Effect Podcast Network on the IHeart Radio app,

guaranteed human promise behind it really makes it rise to the top.

the hosts always act like they know what they're talking about and they are experts at everything.
Here, the Nick Dick and Poll show, we're not afraid to make mistakes.
What Cougler did that I think was so unique.
He's the writer-director.
Who do you think?
is. I don't know.
You meet the, like, the president?
You think Canada has a president? You think China has a president?
The law crusade. God, I love that thing. I use it all the time.
I wrap it in a blanket and sing to it at night.
It's like the old Polish saying, not my monkeys, not my circus.
Yep.
It was a good one. I like that. It is an actual Polish saying.
Yeah. It is an actual Polish saying.
Better version of Play Stupid Games win stupid prizes.
Yes.
Which, by the way, wasn't Taylor's,
who said that for the first time.
I actually, I thought it was.
I got that wrong.
Listen to the Nick, Dick, and Paul show
on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
Are you guilty of being a Velcro parent?
What do you think that is, by the way?
Like, attached to your kids too much.
A Velcro parent's a caregiver
who remains constantly attached to their child.
It can be physically, emotionally, or mentally.
The parent sticks to their child like Velcro,
and they intervene rather than allow the kid to handle it
go through tough things on their own.
That way they can be close if there's disappointment, frustration, anger, confusion, boredom, et cetera.
Huffington Post.
Are you a Velcro parent, Amy?
Nope.
You let them go, mess up.
Definitely not.
I can be.
Was it hard to not be a Velcro parent?
I think in certain situations, not all.
In certain situations, there was one recently where I definitely wanted to swoop in,
and I took everything in me not to.
I had to practice, stay on.
And you didn't because you saw long-term benefits of you not jumping in and them
learning for themselves.
Yeah.
I had to just keep saying over and over, stay on your side of the street.
Stay on your side of the street.
Now, you're not being literal.
They weren't being abducted on the other side of the street and you just didn't jump into hell.
No, in that case, I would intervene 100%.
This was a situation where I needed to just stay on my side of the street.
And I was very proud of myself.
So Velcro parent, probably the cousin, a helicopter parent.
It's different though, right?
Because one of them hovers, the other one sticks?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think Velcro's a little more intense.
Eddie, I feel like you're at least a little more Velcro than Amy is.
Honestly, man, I'm not.
I try to be, but I don't think my kids let me stick to them.
Are you helicopter?
No.
No, no, no, no.
Okay.
Oh my gosh.
So you're just a denial.
You all.
Yeah, you're denial parents.
Yeah, you're denial.
My technique is to not let them do things.
Like, you know, so like if social media is an issue, then you're not going to get Instagram.
Like, boom, we're not going to do that.
And so in that case, like, they're just not going to get into that trouble.
But when they go to school and they have a problem like with a friend or whatever,
I try to be like, hey, man, talk to me.
Let's do it.
Like, I'd love to help you with this.
They're like, no, I'm good, dad.
I got it.
So I try to be Velcro, but they don't want me to stick.
I don't think offering feedback if you're asking as being Velcro.
I think if they have a situation at school, you're like, hey, if you want to talk about it,
I'm here or would you like feedback on it?
That's being supportive.
Give yourself a name then.
What kind of parent are you if you were to have a Velcro that?
Elkrow helicopter.
It can be anything, something that doesn't even exist.
What would you say?
Because I think whenever...
Mine might...
Are you having a stroke?
What happened?
What are you saying?
My lady Gaga, boc up face.
Mine might depend on the day.
I'm fluid.
You're a fluid parent.
Yes.
Like I can be, what version's going to show up today?
No, just kidding.
I try to be consistent.
it as possible, but, you know, we slip up.
Eddie, what would you say about you?
Maybe like a pickleball parent
where, like, pickleball is a cool sport, right?
Like, I think I'm a cool dad.
But they don't really think I'm cool.
Just like people don't think pickleball's cool if they don't play it.
If you play it, it's like, this is the coolest thing in the world.
But if you don't, you're like, okay, nerds over there, old people.
Right.
So you're the pickleball parent.
I'm a pickleball parent.
That's pretty good.
I try my best.
You do try to do cool things with your oldest kid.
I try to be cool with him.
And he's like, Dad, stop.
They're boys.
Like, if they're like, one of them, like, see him texting a girl.
I'm like, dude, hey, you want to talk to me about?
No, no.
You know, like, I can help you.
You're talking about girls, but not I can help you pick up the girls.
No, I can help you.
Like, you're struggling, texting with a girl.
I'll tell you what to say.
Oh.
Like, dude, this is cool parenting.
What do you tell him to say?
Nothing.
He always says, leave me alone, dad.
Okay, fine, fine.
You know I got your mom, right?
I like it better.
That's what you said?
I got her.
Yes.
You're only here because I got her.
Exactly.
I do like it that Eddie's at least trying to be involved in that way because some parents just get uncomfortable with any talk like that.
And they just don't even talk about it.
So I think it's cute that Eddie tries to insert himself.
And then his son is like, no, I'm good.
You know what we just bought?
Because we're going to have a baby soon.
We bought a thing that you put a super baby in in the bathtub.
You can't put them in the bathtub by themselves.
I mean, not by themselves.
You can't even, they don't even take back.
You got to put them in like a smaller thing to go in the bathtub, like a strainer.
It looks like a strainer.
Like I'm straining spaghetti.
You put them in the strainer.
You put a super baby in the strainer to give them a bath.
And super baby because it's a little little baby baby.
Yeah.
Some people don't.
Super baby sounds like it's a big super baby.
But you mean when it said it's tiniest.
Wow, it's super baby.
That baby is so.
So it goes in the bathtub.
I just figured, I don't know because I never had a newborn baby.
But like I just always see people bathe them in the sink and stuff.
It's easier to do it in the sink.
You can do it in the sink.
Do you sink, sure.
If you want to get them up with your used oatmeal bowls.
But we have a, for the bathtub, we bought this thing that you put it in.
It kind of looks like a salad strainer that's tall.
I guess.
You know, I'm going to let the baby swim.
Don't you just throw them in?
They do that.
Don't throw them in and just see what happens.
Dude, they do that.
You know, like the Nirvana cover of the baby swimming?
That's what they do.
That's like a toddler though, right?
Or like a four-year-old.
That's a super baby.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
So we just got that.
Some people give birth in water.
Yeah, dude.
The baby comes out in the water.
What do you think about that?
I'm always interested.
I'm intrigued by it.
They set up like a little blow-up hot tub-looking thing in their bedroom,
which I would opt for that over birthing in my bed.
Like I had a friend that, her and her husband.
I don't want to do it at the house.
Oh, well.
Like even when you say that, it's like if we're going to do it at the house on a tub,
which we're not, and there's no judgment here.
not doing it in the bedroom.
Yeah.
Well, my friend specifically wanted to do it.
In her bed?
She wanted to have the baby where she made the baby?
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
It was a full circle moment and she was like there's nothing more, you know, sacred or
intimate than like our bed.
So she wanted the baby to be born there and she had mirrors and everything with her
midwife.
There is not a wrong, but there's very few wrongs just because I don't quite understand
doesn't mean it's wrong, but that we, that ain't happening.
But that bed's ruined, right?
That bed's dead.
Well, they put down special.
It doesn't matter.
It's over.
You're telling me stuff ain't getting through.
You can tarp that thing four times.
Stuff's still getting through.
There's a lot of stuff going through.
We tarped many a boat, water still got under there after a big storm.
Yeah.
The dark stories behind Disney movies.
I didn't know a lot of this.
Number one, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
In the original fairy tale,
the huntsman bring the evil queen the lungs and liver of a boar.
And she eats them believing that the lungs and liver of Snow White.
You can't put that in the movie.
At the end of the story, Snow White and the prince punish the queen by making her wear red, hot iron shoes.
And they make her dance at their wedding until she dies.
Dang.
That's dark.
It is dark.
They put fire iron on her feet and make her dance until she dies.
That's some...
This is very vengeance.
Twisted.
Number two.
This is the original stories that ended up being Disney movies.
Sleeping Beauty.
The prince doesn't kiss the sleeping princess.
He impregnates her while she's sleeping.
No way.
And she doesn't wake up until she gives birth to twins.
And one of them sucks on her finger to remove the cursed splinter.
I'm weirded out.
Yeah.
Who wrote that?
Yeah, I wouldn't have greenlit that cartoon.
Well, they didn't.
That's why they changed it up.
The next one, Cinderella.
In the fairy tale, the ugly stepsisters cut off parts of their feet to make the glass slipper fit.
That makes sense.
But they take a knife and cut off toes.
They don't just cram them in.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because in the movie they cram them in.
And at Cinderella's wedding, birds peck out their eyes.
Peck out, like, guest eyes?
The ugly stepsisters eyes.
Oh, the step sister's eye.
The Little Mermaid.
In the original Hans Christian Anderson story, the mermaid does not get her man.
He marries someone else.
After he marries someone else, she has the option of becoming a mermaid again
if she kills them and his new bride.
Whoa.
So she's a human.
but she doesn't have anybody to be with
so it's well you can go back to being a mermaid
but you got to kill them
and she can't bring herself to do it
so she turns into C-foam, her ultimate curse.
I feel like this could be a movie.
That's a terrible ending to a movie.
She's a C-foam?
Yeah, yeah, C-foam.
She falls in love with the guy,
the guy marries somebody else?
But murder, murdering them?
So who got their hands on these
and they were like, hey, I know that this is how the story goes,
but if we just change this detail here,
like we can make it a kid's.
movie or book.
Tangled, but Tangled is the story of
Rapunzel. That's correct. You had the
really long hair. In Rapunzel
the original story,
the witch learns of Rapunzel's affair
with the prince, so she cuts her hair
and banishes her. Then the witch blinds
the prince with the scissors
that she cuts Rapunzel's hair with
by jabbing them into his eyeballs.
Whoa.
Rapunzel and the prince
eventually do find each other, but the prince
has no eyes.
Dang, dude.
Colleen,
they're crazy back then
Sickos.
Well, it's like you can't tell
it's a happy story.
All right.
Because I imagine there are sickos now
that write horror movies
and books
but these are supposed to be happy stories.
And why are all of them
this way?
In Pinocchio.
Oh no.
What do they do to him?
Oh, no.
What did they do to him?
I don't want to know, actually.
You want to check out.
It wasn't his nose.
In the book,
Pinocchio gets tired
of Jiminy Cricket trying to give him advice.
So he kills him.
I mean, Jimmy Cricket was kind of annoying a little bit.
The Cricket doesn't even have a name in the book.
He's just referred to as a talking cricket that gets killed.
He's like, shut up, cricket.
Page four.
Moulon.
And this is ancient Chinese in the Ballad of Moulon.
When the true identity of the title character is revealed,
she's told she has to become a concubine to the emperor.
You know what that is?
No.
A concubine?
It's like a woman.
A woman.
There's like one of the many wives he just has sex with.
Oh.
Yeah.
Okay.
In an act of defiant, she kills herself.
It's not how moving on in.
No, Christina Aguilar is singing that one.
And then finally, in the hunchback of Notre Dame, in the book, Esmeralda is hanged for the attempted murder of Phoebus?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Even though Frollo did it.
Quasimoto kills Frollo, then jumps into a masquerade with Esmeralda's body to die.
I don't know.
That could be the actual story.
I don't know.
the hunchback in another day. I don't know that one yet. I just know
Igor. So,
be happy these aren't your Disney movies.
That stabbing the eyeballs out and
putting the hot iron shoes on the print
making the queen die by dancing in the hot.
Oh, what's the worst one? Oh, the worst one for sure.
Oh, yeah, good one. The sleep of beauty. So, like he didn't
kiss her he had to do it.
With twins. She didn't wake up until she was giving birth.
Yeah. That's crazy.
That's a tough one too. Yeah, anyway.
I don't know.
No, I'm glad they didn't turn out that way.
I don't think that it made it to us.
You imagine explaining your kid what's going on?
You're watching the old cartoon?
See, she's asleep.
But...
Wake up in the morning.
Then you turn the radio on and the dial just keeps on turn.
Keeps on turn.
Then you're here.
Eddie and me lunchbox.
Morgan 2.
Steve Redavit trying to put you through.
Mike D's writing this week's next bit.
Now Bobby's on the mic so you know what this is.
This is the Bobby Bond store.
And now for the Morning Corny.
The Morning Corny.
What's a spider's New Year's Resolution?
What's a spider's New Year's resolution?
To spend less time on the web.
That was the Morning Corning.
She's back, everybody.
Bobby Bone Show.
Boney of the day.
story comes us from Florida.
A 39-year-old woman was
headed to court because she stole $29 million
from the government.
And as she's pulling into the courthouse,
they have a license plate reader.
And it went off. Stolen vehicle.
Stolen vehicle. So she got
out of the car and cops like, hey, we need to detain you.
You know why? She goes, yeah,
car stolen.
Okay. She knew.
Wait, if she stole all the money, why she also stole the car
if she had all the money?
No, no, no. She was going to trial.
Yeah, but I'm saying if she stole all that money,
Like, why not buy your own car?
You just stole $20 plus million.
Oh, good point.
Was she robbing to skip to the poor?
She's Robin Hood?
Don't think so.
Justice for Robinette hood.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm just confused why, if you have all that money,
while you're also going to steal a car.
Maybe it's not about the money, man.
Yeah, maybe it's about stealing.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm lunchbox.
That's your bonehead story of the day.
So something Eddie thought was sweet, turns out.
He now thinks is rude.
It has to do with your vision?
Yeah.
I was telling Morgan, I mean, just kind of talking about how like, I'm just struggling with my vision.
So I use my glasses to read stuff off my computer.
Your glasses, look, I think everybody's entitled to their own style.
What?
Your glasses don't fit anything else that you do.
They look like me-mall glasses.
Well, I just do it like that because it's like bifocals, right?
You put them on the end of your nose.
I put them at the edge of my nose so I can read.
You look like Torella DeVille and 101 Dalmatians.
But I can still see far so I look up above them, right?
So anyway, so Morgan is like, do you want me to send?
emails to you, like in big fonts.
And I was like, well, that's really considerate of you.
But then I'm like, wait a second.
That's rude.
Like, I don't need, I can still see my emails and she's going to send them in like 24 font.
I'm good.
Your glasses are so weird looking that I think it makes us care more about your vision.
What do you want me to wear?
It's like a performance when you put them on.
I do have these other ones that are like Jeffrey Dahmer, you know, like bigger.
Like 80s.
That's like when I wore mine like that.
Y'all said I look like a serial killer.
So I haven't worn them since.
You're telling me this room's judgmental on what people wear?
Yeah, no.
And then what Eddie needs to get is the kind that I did have, which I have since lost,
and I'm really annoyed by it because they were expensive.
But they're progressive glasses, Eddie, where up top there's like nothing.
So you're good.
Like you don't have to put it down on your nose because I get what you're saying.
You just need them to read.
But then down at the very bottom, it has the prescription.
So you can...
Sounds like the mullet of glasses.
Yes.
Party in the front, the back.
Yeah.
It's like a mullet of glasses.
and I had some and they were
well they were dark rim and then Bobby was thought I was
copying him which I wasn't because they were tortoises
they were not big frames big dark rim frames
tortoise shell yeah I thought you were Bobby
when you walked in I looked over it I thought it was a mirror I was like
why did they put a mirror in the studio well now come to think
of it you know how I just said I lost them
now I have a theory that just popped in my head
what did you take them did you take them
did you take them and break them I don't have time I don't have time
for hijinks around here you guys do too much hijinks I don't
do hijinks around here
I'm all for hijinks
You like to bring it
And you guys have drama
I don't do hijinks
It was one of the great mysteries
For me last year
They just disappeared
And I can't find them anywhere
Yes
Well they're progress
Like at top
No prescription
Down bodice
So someone else might be able to put them on
And they just think they're wearing them
And they're cool
When they look down
They're like oh magnified
They're mullet of glasses
Yeah
So I don't know where they are
I had nothing to do with it
I wouldn't steal your glasses
It's just a theory
It's just in my head just now
Had to say it
That is interesting
You guys are always up
no good around here. What, Morgan? Can I also add that Eddie's missing a piece to this story?
He said that he was told by somebody to, if he keeps wearing his glasses, his vision's going to
get worse. Yeah. So I said, hey, I'll help you out to not wear your glasses more and I'll make
the font bigger. I told her that a doctor told me once that I could, if I could just stick it out
and like use my eyes to like really focus, you'll prolong getting reading glasses. Oh, I see.
Because once you get the reading glasses, you kind of give up and then your eyes just depend on the reading glasses.
Okay, that makes sense.
I'm still wondering where your glasses are.
If someone stole them.
The thing is, you misplace a lot of stuff.
Is this you just plain?
Yeah, but I don't do, guys, I don't do fun stuff like that.
But an expensive pair of prescription glasses, I feel like I don't just.
You don't lose glasses.
How expensive are those progressives?
Because I'm interested.
Pretty expensive.
I was able to use my HSA.
Okay. Health spending account.
Home shopping at work.
We're done. Thank you guys for being here. We'll see you tomorrow.
Bye, buddy.
