Speaker 1 (00:03):
Transmitting good MORNI studio morning. Why don't I go to
Carrie and Saint Charles Missouri, who's on the phone. Hey Carrie?
How are you good? How are you pretty good? What
can I do for you? So a couple of years ago,
you guys did a segment. It was right after Amy
(00:24):
got her kids, and it was I think, it was
what you're grateful for? And then what keeps you up
at night? And I still remember to this day Amy's answers.
It like touched me to my soul. She said like
she was grateful for a bottle of motion because her
kids had such dry skin, and they like wouldn't let
her put it on, and they finally did. And then
what kept her up at night is that she slept
(00:45):
on the floor with her I think, I don't know
if it was her daughter or her son, but they
supped on the floor because they didn't even know what
a bed was. And I thought that was incredible. And
now all of you guys have had such big life changes. Um,
I wanted to ask that question. Now, if you guys
could go around and see, you know, name one thing
that you're grateful for and one thing that keeps you
up at night. Amy For me, I am super thankful
(01:07):
for therapy, and what keeps me up at night is
learning to set boundaries. And you know how that might
affect certain people, but I'm trying to practice what did
I do now? Not you? Well, I mean maybe it's
in friendships and relationships, all kinds of things you can
set boundaries, but I'm not used to it. So it
definitely keeps me up because you get worried that I'm
(01:29):
letting someone down or hurting someone's feelings when really it's
not anything I should think twice about because boundaries are important.
So but that does keep me up for sure. But
that's why I also circle back to why I'm thankful
for therapy. Well too, when you get older, you don't
have time for as much bullcrap, and you start to go,
I just don't care, Like this isn't that important in
(01:49):
my life, so I'm not going to put a lot
of time into it and make it that important. So true,
and sometimes that's a boundary of I just don't have
time for this crap. Right, My boundary is I'm time
for you because you're dramatic the end, not worried about it,
no drama because you don't exist in my little space anymore.
And that's just because we get old and tired. Yeah, well,
it's not even just boundaries regarding to anything dramatic or drama,
(02:12):
but just healthy boundaries for yourself. That that totally makes sense.
And if other people are aware of boundaries too, then
they get it. Other people, dramatic people exactly. Eddie. I say,
I'm grateful for the strength that God gives me to
be a parent for four kids. Like that's tough and
I don't know how I do it. There are certain
days or weeks I go through and I'm just like,
(02:32):
I don't know how I did that. I tell I
would have quit a long time ago. So that's that's
a big one. I don't know how it happens. So
thank you God for doing that for me. Giving me
that strength I am keeps me up at night. I
would say, just my just worried about this job, like
just a little bit, you know, Um, I think it's
just a weird time for everyone and we don't know
nothing's guaranteed, and I just hope that we have a job.
(02:53):
What do you know that I don't nothing nothing, But
you know, you talked to a lot of people. They're
losing jobs left and right, and you just worry that
that that could happen to anyone at any moment. Lunchbox,
I am grateful for the invention of the lottery because
it allows me to dream big and imagine my life
when I hit the lottery and becomes super rich and
what I'm gonna do. And what keeps me up at
(03:14):
night is my kid in the middle of the night
yelling dad da dad d my blanket, my blanket, or
I need a hug that keeps me up at night
because there's three thirty in the morning and they're yelling.
It literally keeps literally keeps me up at night. I
do that same thing with Kaitlin. No blanket, Mamma, blanket Carrie.
(03:34):
Thank you for calling. Are you satisfied with those answers?
I am, and yes, it just yep, it's great. Just
listen about the kids because I have two kids myself,
so the literal keeping you up at night, and then
also you know, just thinking about keeping up at night
just does. And yeah, it's all all big, exciting, exciting
(03:54):
things for you guys. So thanks for having me on
the show. You guys are awesome. Thanks carry have a
good day you too. We're so adult now, I know.
I just thought about that, and it's a it's a
change that I've had to embrace because for most of
my career I was the youngest to do it. I
was twenty two, twenty three doing mornings in a big
market and syndicating myself, and I was like, oh, look
(04:16):
at this. I'm an adult. I'm a grown man, are
you know. Don't make me go full Gundy on you. Yeah,
we're getting there. I'm maybe I'm getting to that part
of my life a little later than some people, but
I think a little earlier I was doing other parts
of my life. Sure that some people. So we're all
just figuring it out the best way we can. All. Right,
Here we go, open the mailbag something year. Hey, Bobby Bones,
(04:45):
I'm writing to you because my girlfriend likes to wear
this old Alan Jackson T shirt from the nineties to
bed sometimes. You know, I never thought think about it.
And don't get me wrong, I love Alan Jackson until
I found out that it was a Rex's boyfriend's T
shirt that she took from him be before they broke up. Okay, now,
I know they had an amicable breakup, but I told
her I don't want her wearing his shirt anymore, and
(05:06):
she refuses to get rid of it. She said she
only wears it because it's so comfortable and she likes
the shirt. I said, hey, if you're gonna wear it,
I won't stay next to you anymore. Do you think
I'm overreacting? I thought you could tell me and you
will settle the debate. Signed Kevin. This is a great email. Yeah,
this is the kind of juice that we wait for.
(05:27):
We love we love these Listen. This is what you do.
You go and you try to find that exact shirt
on eBay, some old Alan Jackson, big shirt, same size.
Maybe you find the same one, maybe you don't, and
you give it to her and you go, hey, listen,
I was wrong to say, hey, just get rid of
(05:48):
that shirt. It makes me uncomfortable because it was from
your ex boyfriend, and it makes it just does it
makes me uncomfortable. And then you say, hey, I got
you this as a gesture because I am asking you
to get rid of it, but I have you another one.
And then that's I feel a transition that makes her
not lose a battle and also gets to her a
nice comfortable shirt that's what I would suggest. But she
has to lose the shirt. Oh yeah, like that's not
(06:09):
a thing. We don't allow that. Yeah, you communicate about it.
When you wear that shirt it makes me feel, and
then share with her how you feel. And then maybe
the story that you tell yourself, even in your head
is whether it's true or not. Oh my gosh, she
must still be hung up on her boyfriend, and you know,
then that's the story you tell herself yourself. And if
(06:30):
she can't respect that, then I don't know. I'm assuming
she already knows that, because if he's brought it up,
she has to know why he brought it up. Okay,
I'd say, you do all that in a Respectfulay, exactly
what you're saying, but you also give a gift to
kind of lighten the mood. But here's my thing. When
you do sit down and share that, her response is
very important. And her response was, I'm not losing the shirts.
(06:52):
That's already happened. Okay. Well, I didn't know how fairly
he presented his because don't act like just take it off, yeah,
or like I don't like you wearing that shirt. But
when you sit down and give her your honest feelings.
Why when you do that it makes me feel blah
blah blah. And this is the story I tell myself, like,
that's a great communication tip for anything that's going on.
And then if she still doesn't understand your feelings and
(07:16):
doesn't because she cares about you want to make you
feel better, then I think then you question overall where
you're going off the ledge they're not. You go to
her and do what Amy said in a nice way,
but you also give her a new shirt. It just
is it makes it much easier for her to be
like okay, because again she probably has some pride about
(07:36):
it too. It doesn't want to lose a fight. You
know how you dig in now, I mean you you
know how you dig in at times? Yes? I know,
But I just think that this is a great way
to see how she would respond. But we love Alan Jackson,
so we'll take that shirtmail it up here the original.
But she can't keep the shirt right, No, No, definitely
(07:56):
not there. You go. Thank you for your email, Morgan.
If they want to reach out to us, what happens,
they just email mailbag at Bobby Bones dot com. Thank
you very much. Close it up. We've got your that
was found to close. Bobby Maia, it's the good News countdown,
(08:16):
counting down the biggest good news stories across the lad
It's the greatest countdown on the radio. Let's go. A
septic company in New Hampshire found a wedding ring in
one of its trucks. The ring was found in the
depths of a septic truck. By the way, let me
just say this, but it has now been reunited with
(08:38):
its owner, cleaned and shine looking and smelling as good
as new. And you know what I gotta say, whoever
found it could easily kept it and sold it taken
to a pun shop. They didn't, found it, tracked it,
gave it back, and that person's wearing that pooper ring
for the rest of their lives. Far A long time
pizza delivery driver named Robert Peters and Indiana got a
(08:59):
new car after people in his town pulled their money
and gave him nineteen thousand dollars. He's been delivering pizzas
for thirty one years. Was driving a beat up ninety
three Oldsmobile. Now he's driving a two seventeen Chevy Malibu.
Here's Robert talking about it to me. This is luxury.
This is the first car I've had has been made
the twenty first century. But the community has done what
Tanner has done. He's gone far beyond a call of duty.
(09:20):
It means a lot to me that people would do this.
Come on, that's awesome. A guy in North Carolina raised
a bunch of money for charity by running forty three
miles on his forty third birthday. Wow. Justin Bailey did
to raise money to give food to those in need.
Here's a clip from wfmy News too opportunity to include
(09:41):
something I love doing, which is running, bringing other people
in to run with me, and also being able to
raise money for a good cause. So after seven hours,
thirty nine minutes and twenty seven seconds, Justin Bailey crossed
the finish line forty three miles on his forty third birthday.
That's a lot of running, man. A guy in North
(10:03):
Carolina got a gift bag from his boss for Christmas.
Very nice, and in the gift bag had lottery tickets
inside of it little scratchers and so everybody had one,
but he took his home, got around and scratching it
off one two hundred thousand dollars. Wow. Wow, that is insane.
Changed that guy's life. And how about everybody who didn't
(10:24):
get they got a different ticket. Someone left a fourteen
hundred dollars tip at a restaurant in Colorado, not to
just one person, but two hundred bucks for each of
the seven servers who were working that day. That's awesome.
That the good news countdown. It's time for the good news.
(10:48):
A guy rescued an older woman who had wandered away
from her home in the snow, and she had fallen
and crawled into an old car of his to get warm.
So one of his neighbors said, Hey, I think somebody
crawled into your old car that you keep beside the house.
And it's like, there's no way wro in the middle
of a snowstorm. Are you talking about? So he goes
out there and he opens the door and he sees
an old lady in there, going, this is the only
(11:10):
place I could get to. She's I'm cold, I'm scared.
Can you please help me? So he rushed inside, got
a bunch of blankets to wrap her up, warmed her up,
and then took her over to reunite with her family.
Said he almost never uses that car, so he leaves
it unlocked, and again, had his neighbor not seen what
looked like somebody crawling in the snow and then him
going out to save her, she would have just been
(11:32):
in there for who knows how long. It's not a
crazy story that she was even found. Yeah, that's what
it's all about. Right there. That was tell me something good,
remembering the dream of doctor Martin Luther King Jr. Bit
if the Bobby Bone Show. Amy. When you were a kid,
what did you want to be when you grew up? Oh,
probably a veterinarian and then a news anchor both. Huh
(11:55):
well yeah, veterinarian is early on when I was like
a little little kid, and then high school cool like
for career day, I went to the local news station.
I've never heard you once say you wanted to be
a news anchor. Oh yeah, I remember. I was obsessed
with Judy Demaggio, and so much so later when I
did have a career in sales. She came into the
place where I worked and I had her sign something
unofficially like, I's like, we're going to need your signature
(12:17):
right here for this. She was a local newsperson, and
I thought I wanted to do that, but didn't even
major in that in college. I moved on, Edie, what
do you want to be when you grew up? Rockstar, lunchbox,
anything famous? I was gonna be on the Real World
and then it was gonna take off, but really army
because I liked camouflage, didn't you. At one point this
is the long lost story of Lunchbox, he claims he
(12:39):
almost got a call back for Real World. Oh no,
I did. I went and tried out. I drove from
San Antonio, Texas to College Station, Texas and tried out
at the what's that called the Dixie Chicken? Amy, Uh,
that is what's called the Dixie Yeah. I tried out there.
And I drove back to San Antonio and I had
a night class economics, and I was like, might as
well go to class. And I got home that night
(12:59):
and there was a call from three two three, and
I asked my room, I said, Hey, who called you
from three two three? Goes? I don't know that number,
asked my other roommate, who called you from three two three?
Don't know who that is? Look it up, La. They
were calling me back. They wanted me back, but they
had to call you again. They wouldn't just call it.
That was it. They moved on. It was over. That
was that was my shot. And I what I learned
(13:20):
is when you go audition for things, don't go to class.
And why didn't they call my cell phone? I had
a cell phone. I put my cell phone number down,
but they called the house phone back when those were
a thing, and they didn't leave a voicemail. And that
was it and I missed my shot. It was very
I was so crushed. We don't know if they were
really offering you a spot, and they wanted to at
least reinterview me, like, hey, bring him back like this,
(13:41):
dude's good, great, bam. Well, I'd like to share a
story now that I've just learned. Did you know, Scooba
Steve was offered a spot on the real World officially?
What back in the day did you know that? No? No,
like on the real world, real world, Scooba, Yes, on
the actual real world. So this was in two thousand
and seven when the Internet was kind of popping his lunchboxes.
Put his hand on his head. He isn't now destroyed.
(14:03):
Go ahead, and the step part is, I'll preface this.
I had to turn it down. So they didn't talk
to me. You had to turn it down. If you're
applying for Real World, why would you ever turn it down?
It was for Love go ahead. So what had happened
was they did an online submission for their last castmate
on Real World Hollywood, which I've always wanted to be
on some sort of reality television show at that point
(14:23):
in time my life. So we did this huge campaign.
I was in a band, as we talked about before,
and at every show we promote to vote for me
to the audience. I promoted on MySpace like heavily. I
got all kinds of people to vote for me, and
I got to the top and it was between me
and another guy. They chose me. But at the same
time though, I was going off after this one girl
who became my ex wife, and she gave me the
(14:44):
ultimatum like, hey, you can either go this whole reality route,
I'm out, or you choose me. I unfortunately chose her.
I turned down a Real World. They went with this
other guy from Daytona Beach, Florida, and he ended up
up doing really well in the show. But I turned
it down for Love, which was an awful mistake because
I would have loved to be in a real world Scooba.
(15:04):
Steve was offered a spot on the Real World. That
is the worst news I've ever heard in my life. Like,
oh my gosh, Like it makes me sick because I
don't know how Scuba Steve is more interesting than me.
I'm way more interesting At that time my life, I
was the coolest kid in the block and was a
rock band that a lot to offer. The fact that
he turned it down for a chick, Like people that
(15:26):
go on the Real World are so stupid when they
go on with a girlfriend or boyfriend back home, Like
it's really gonna work. You are there to party and
to hook up, and you I can't believe you turn
it down for a chick. How dumb? Like why wouldn't
you go through the whole process if you have a
girlfriend and you're gonna turn it down because of her? Well,
I met her through that process when I was in
the band, like a couple of months, a couple of weeks. Actually,
(15:51):
oh my guys, come on, how stupid can you bean?
It turns up down that you've known for someone for
two weeks? It was pretty stupid. It was a dumb
choice because obviously she's max wife. She cheated on me,
so it was a horrible decision to have gone with
her versus the Real World. I didn't know Scooba Steve
was married twice, Me neither. When he said second ago
on Ashley Madison, hold, I mean story, so many interesting stories.
(16:16):
It's always it's like we're unwinding this most interesting man
in radio. And that's why I got offered a spot World.
I'm starting to I want to come. Did you talk
about that story would have happened? Yeah, because I was
in San Francisco on the radio, it was like a hole,
don't share too much, I want to save it. Yeah,
it was a whole month playout, like we just did
a bunch of things with it. Yeah. That's how I
found my new wife too, was through that process through Madison.
(16:40):
Scooba Steve our executive producer who comes on about once
every couple of days, but always with just like the
perfect nugget. And today it was that he turned down
Real World, and I knew what drive lunch box is
crazy because that's been his biggest goal in life. My
biggest goal in life since I was like twelve years old,
I'd watch Real World Miami Boston, San Francisco, and I
was like, I'm gonna be on that show or road Rules,
and it just never happen. And that means you could
(17:01):
be on the Challenge Scuba Prossibly. I'm killing myself about
it too. Right now. You could be going for millions
of dollars in these competitions. Instead, you turn it down
for a girl you knew for two weeks. And Hollywood
was a terrible season anyway. So do you want to
get a Scoob's autograph before I play? So? No? Okay? Yeah,
most kids love riddles. But what if we ask the
(17:22):
adults in the room these kids riddles? Let's play riddle
me this Amy, lunchbox Eddie. I will give you a
kid's riddle. All you have to do is get it.
You'll have twenty seconds after I finished the second reading

was percipit. Evaporation. Yeah, I don't know because like then
the evaporates within it like comes back down as we're
doing this is a cycle. What goes up it never

comes back down evaporation. The answer is age your age, oh,
or that it's not gonna be so on the nose
and scientific. It's a riddle, yeah, and sometimes it is

get on one track. But to believe because age, that's

Here we go. What two things can you never eat

for breakfast? He correct amy riddle? For today? Am you
Amy's pile of stories? So survey was done and two
thirds of parents say that they rely on Google when
(23:49):
they help their kids with homework. So pretty much, no Google,
no help you. How do you feel about that? I
rely on Google YouTube videos really breaking it down for
me in order to help my kids with their homework.
You had any chance? No, no no, no, without Google? I
mean without Google? How do we even settle debates? Fifteen
years ago? Sure you'd be haven't dinner with a friend?
(24:12):
You'd argue, no, no, no. Columbus was in fourteen ninety two. No,
it's fourteen ninety three. I swear. Okay, Well what do
we do now? We had the encyclopedia? Yeah, and I
could go get a book. If you were out a vout,
you were just up poop creek without a paddle, That's right?
What else? The survey also found the top ways parents
get out of helping their kids with homework. Because I
(24:32):
know parents are going to keep these in their back pocket.
You can ask the partner in your life for help instead.
Come home late so you miss homework time, be busy
doing laundry or other chores instead claiming to be too
tired or emergency run. We got to go to the
grocery store. We're out of milk. A lot of great
parenting taken. Yeah, a good job, guys. I did read
(24:52):
a thing too where the same kind of story where
they said, like most dads will fake sleeping when the
baby's crying so they don't have to go either change
the diaper or ten to the baby. Yeah, it's like
they're like, close your eyes, I've done it. I'm sleeping. Yeah,
of course you're We're not surprised. What else? So I
have the best country karaoke songs Chadouci sit on there. No,
(25:14):
it is not dumb list that top five so yeah,
people want to know. And number five Amarillo by Morning
George Tray. It's a great song, but is it the
best karaoke song? Up from San Aunte ring to the survey? Right,
Eddie just got everything all right in At number four,
Needs You Now Lady A tough one saying and you
(25:36):
need to have two people doing it, like I guess
a good duet country song. And number three Shania Twain
Man I feel like a Woman Fun one and number
two Karrie Underwood before he cheats. People are have some
pretty big goals on that karaoke stage, trying to sing
(25:58):
like Carrie or Lady A and and A Number one
Garth Brooks Friends in Low Places the best song, right,
it's like fun unless you can really really saying karaoke like,
do the most fun fun song possible. That's a good one,
all right. So workout pictures, if you post them, apparently
they help your followers. Um Like, if you run a
(26:19):
ten k and you put it up, or you're doing
a cross fit wild workout and you put it up,
people that follow you on social media will feel bad
about themselves for not running a ten k, so it
gets them moving. I at times feel inspired when I
see someone working out in a picture. I'm like, oh, dang,
that does affect me a bit. Yeah. Like I'll see
Seacrets sometimes on that he's got like some sort of
(26:40):
a rowing thing he stands on. I'm like, hey, gosh,
you're gonna work out. I'm always one step behind secrets. Yeah,
I guess as long as it's part of you wanting
to feel good and you know that working out will
get you there, but like I feel like it's it's
so a lot of these before and afters, depending on
where you are in your journey, can be harmful because
if someone's side before and after, just picture be working out. Okay,
(27:01):
just you doing the thing, gotcha? Okay, we almost got woke. Amy,
I stopped it. I plugged the hole. Thank you, because
I want to be sensitive to the fact that some people,
when they see that stuff online, it actually can be
really damaging. No, it's great for me if I just
somebody working out like Hendrison the gym today, Like, that's great.
They actually carved out an hour of their day. Why
can't I. It's not like every hour in my day
(27:21):
is the most important hour. I need to do a
little me time. Yeah, like a little time for me
to make myself better, either physically or mentally. Good job,
plugged up. That hole was ready to come through. Sorry. Yeah,
maybe that's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories.
It's time for the good news. Well this is pretty
(27:47):
cool because it's from my neck of the woods in
South Texas. There's a family hanging out in their house
in Santa Rosa, Texas, and they realize there's a fire
and it just gets out of control real quick. So
everyone tries to get out of the house as fast
as they can. They make it out, and then quickly
they realized, oh crap, we forgot grandma. Grandma's still in
the house. How do you forget grandma? They did. I mean,
I'm sure they're rushing bones, you know. So they like,
(28:07):
they said, somebody's got to go back in and get Grandma.
So fourteen year old son Bradley Garza, he gets a
shirt to cover his face from the smoke, and he says,
I'm going in. He gets in the house and he
just searches everywhere. He says, it's hard to see, but
he found Grandma, pulls her out to safety. Everybody is okay, Wow,
I wonder if it goes like home alone. We're like,
cay man, Grandma, Grandma? How do you forget grandma? Though?
(28:29):
I don't know. Man, that's good. He saved her. Yeah,
shout out dan, grandma? Do you go for first? I know?
But Grandma she got out safe. That's what it's all about.
That was tell me something good. It's a voicemail we
got last night from Ari and Piper. Here you go,
morning studio, Morning do you want to give us a
shout out to our MoMA aubreyasauple get that in the
(28:51):
whole world. We love the show and can never stop
listening to it. One of our favorite parts is Amy
in the Morning Corning. Do you appealed to everyone? Yeah?
At your windows? And Eddie lunch Buck all he also
love town me sound being good? Days to go back
by that all song and Dan plan sign these girls
(29:17):
up with something pretty good. All RM Piper a shout
out to you guys. That's pretty cool. You love the
Morning Corny. Let's do it now here we go, Morning Corny.
Why didn't the Green Pepper practice archery? Why didn't the
Green Pepper practice archery? Because it didn't have a narrow Oh?
(29:38):
I like that? That was the Morning Corny. Hey, did
you ever have a boyfriend back in the day or heck,
maybe your husband does this now. It just wants to
fight if something goes wrong. I've never dated fight guy.
H I mean, maybe e when I was sixteen one
of the yeah, but I don't even know if he
(29:59):
was fight guy or just being a teenage kid. But
nobody in my life currently is fight guy. Like you've
never been at a bar and somebody steps on somebody's
shoe and next thing you know, it's a come on no.
And I'm not attracted to fight guy, like, I want
you to be able to control yourself. They say, men
with a fragile sense of masculinity are way more likely
(30:20):
to act aggressively to prove their manliness. That makes sense.
So the guy that always wants to fight is fighting
to prove that he's a man, and the guy that
doesn't need to fight isn't is a big man as
he's a big man. I'm not gonna fight the guy
that runs away, the guy that cries and grabs another
man to stand in front of him, that's the guy
(30:41):
you want to be with, lunchbox, Are you fight guy?
I'm not a fight guy, but I think women like fight, guy, Like,
if you are going to if you're a woman is
in trouble, they want to see you step up and fight.
They want to see someone that is brave. And I mean,
if we need to, we can fight. But I mean,
no one really wants to fight me because they know.
I think the difference in if somebody's hurting your girl,
(31:03):
no no, no, Let's say some guy knocks your girls
drink out of the hand and doesn't say sorry or
excuse me. You gotta say something to the guy or
else your girl's gonna look at you bad, and you
gotta let your girl know. Hey, I'm not gonna let
people treat you like that. If you're at a bar
and a guy accidentally bumps into your wife and knocks
her drink out of her hand, it keeps walking, what
do you do, you, Graham, say, Hey, you're gonna come
(31:24):
back and apologize, or we're gonna him anybody you grab him? Yep,
where do you grab him? Graham by the shoulder of
the arm, whatever, You just hey, excuse me, you just
knocked the drink out of her hand, and you're gonna
go back and apologize, and they're gonna saying that you
shouldn't say, hey, would you mind apologizing? But lunch I
think you're having anybody? Yeah, I mean you're you're already
(31:44):
picturing that the guy's gone, like he's already walked away,
and Lunchbox is gonna get out of his way and
go grab him, say come back and apologize to her.
And then also, since this is radio and some people
might not know exactly what Lunchbox looks like I just
like to clarify that. A second ago, Lunchbox said, well,
you know, people see me, they know oh like they
know what like like they're not going to fight him
because of what they see. But Lunchbox isn't as big
(32:08):
as he sounds. He's like a like a guy like
jaggy hair. Like, it's not what you're expecting because I
know some people picture like he got a big voice,
a big guy. Where would you rank us on the show?
With all the guys here on the show, who you'd
want to fight least like it was probably the toughest
(32:29):
in a fight to the person that's the whimpiest. Okay.
I don't want to fight Screwba. He's first, Yes, hey
go ahead. Then I don't want to fight Ray because
he's scrappy, I think, and like, well, I don't know,
he works out all the time. Then I don't want
to fight Bobby. Then I don't want to fight you
(32:53):
have lost your darn mind. It's wrong with you. I
have lost your darn mind. Then I don't want to
fight Eddie. Oh wow. And then I don't want to
fight lunch Actually, like you do want to fight lunch Box.
It is but I'm saying, no, if you had to pick,
you'd fight him first. Oh, yes, so that's what I mean. Yeah,
Like it's like, wow, yeah, probably my best odds are
(33:16):
against him. You need to put some respect on my name. Okay, okay,
how does that make you feel? Unchbox? I mean, listen,
I'm not worried about her. Girls like her. That's the
one I'm not what I'm worried about, you know what
I'm saying. No, what is he saying? When's the last
time you've been in a fight, Lunchbox. It's been a
long time, been a long time. But there's been times
(33:36):
at the bar when he gets real closed and they're like, oh,
you know what, it's probably a bad idea, and they
back down. Oh they back down, you don't, yeah, or
someone diffuses the situation steps in between, things like that.
But that's the problem when you're a celebrity and you
go out to bars, some people want to pick at
you just because you're a celeb. Do you remember when
Morgan number two is boxing as she said she'd box
(33:58):
lunch Box. Yes, he said no, he said he was
he wouldn't do it. Yeah, correct, still won't mine Because
she's a woman. That's true. I mean, that's I mean,
that's true. That's true. Who would you rather fight, Morgan
number two or Lunchbox? Oh, lunch Box, let's set it up.
Let's go at mo. Yeah. Hey, she talks a big game.
(34:21):
Let's do it big game at lunchbox. Right, you didn't also,
I'm a woman, Hey, but you're talking trash. Let's go.
Let's go all right. Last week, Lunchbox went into a
local sub shop and paid for everyone's meal and hopes
that someone would contact the news. This is all ruted
(34:42):
in that Darius Rucker story. For Darius went or to
an eyehop, head dinner, paid for everybody's meal. Tip the
white staff made the news. So Lunchbox got jealous. I
do like that he paid for everybody's meal, though, right,
let's not let let it be lost that he did
go in and pay for everyone's meal. Eight people. Yeah,
that's a lot of money. But then he started yelling, hey,
tweet this, call the news. Here's a clip. Remember if
(35:02):
you hit up the news, He tweeted out Lunchbox bottom
on lunch let him know, I'm just a great guy.
Any news, CNN, Fox News, anybody. Yeah, remember Lunchbox l
U n C H Box let everybody know till the news.
So Lunchbox waited. The news never picked it up, right Lunchbox,
(35:23):
No no one ever called. They were one in a
single tweet, not a news story, not even on the
bottom line when you watch the ten o'clock news, like
you know how they have news on the bottom nothing.
So he decides to call himself and tip off the
news as his character. What's character's name Nico Jackson? Yes,
and show Nico Jackson just happened to be in line
(35:44):
at the sub shop when this lunchbox feller came in
and bought for everybody. Why does he sound like that
creepy old man from Family Guy. Yeah, he's like the
goodmard just sent me a conversation starter, Lunchbox. What the
inspiration for Nico Jackson is? What character you do? This
was just I really just was calling to Prink, called
(36:04):
my dad, and I talked very good at voices, and
so I had to kind of manipulate my mouth and
this came out, and I was like, Nico Jackson and
we had just had Nico moon in. I was like,
I like that named Nico. We'll go with Nico Jackson. Okay,
here is lunchbox calling the news. Here you go, Oh, yes,
(36:26):
this is Nico Jackson, and I gotta tell you I
got a great story for you over there at the
news station. So I was at the sub shop the
other day and this fine young gentleman comes in and
this guy starts yelling, hey guys, I'm lunch Box. And
he ended up paying for everybody's sub that was in line,
and it yes, and he was just he paid for
(36:47):
all of our subs. And he said, oh, if we
want to contact the news and I think he should
do a story on the young man. Okay, sir, that
sounds really nice of him. It sounds like a great
gesture to go in and do a little pay it
forward if you will. But is that all you were
calling in for? I mean I got a foot long
meatball sub and I even got a cookie because this
(37:08):
lunchbox guy was buying. I said, hey, might as well
get a cookie. Okay, Um, all right, that is interesting.
Well I will drop this down, and I'm glad that
you got a free stub out of it, and even
a free cookie. And it sounds like that was a
great afternoon for you. It really was. It was really good. Now,
I thought it'd be cool on the news, but I
(37:29):
guess you're saying no, not today, but in lunch box
a big celebrity. He said he was on the radio,
and so I figured that means he's big time. You know, Uh,
there's some bigger people on the radio. I think I've
not personally heard of him. I can ask around the
news room, but that's not one that i've personally heard.
Oh okay, well all right, thank you, all right, thank
(37:52):
you for calling. All right, bye bye, hurt. It heard
on a lot of levels, like first of all, they
didn't take your story was big enough, right, like a
little bit You're like, dang, I thought this was my
shot here. Oh yes, I was like I thought she'd
be like, oh, yes, we need something positive. You know,
we always have negative news on the story. Maybe we'll
(38:13):
have something positive. And she wasn't even like she didn't
even want to entertain it. Oh and then oh, I
don't even about it, don't go there like it. Like
re hearing her say that, I was just like, that's
like a dagger in the heart, Like she could have
just said, oh, yeah, he's a great guy. No it said,
she goes, oh, there's probably there's bigger ones because I've
never heard. Oh my god, but it's a dagger in
(38:35):
the heart. Why because lunchbox thinks that he's the biggest
thing around, right, sure? Yeah, Like, how does she like
if she's living in a cave, she's never heard of me?
Come on, you should have asked her who her favorites are.
Let me tell you. At that point when she said
and I've never heard of a mod danced about the
news room, I was just ready to get out of there.
I was like, I'm done. Hate was that here in town?
(38:56):
It was a local one? Oh no, oh no, never
heard of goto. Well, you're not gonna make the news.
Sorry about that, bud. Yeah, I'm not gonna make the news.
So who do I ask to be getting reimburse that meal?
You can ask everybody, but ain't nobody gonna reimburse you
(39:18):
for it. That's funny, all right, Nico Nico Jackson, every Jackson.
It's time for the good news. So back in nineteen
seventy three, this woman that lives in San Antonio, Texas,
was up in Chicago visiting her grandmother. When she was
(39:39):
loading up her three kids to get in the car,
her wedding ring flew off her hand and fell into
the snow. Once it thawed, they did a search for it.
They weren't able to find it a few weeks later,
and yeah, she's gone forty eight years without that wedding band.
But it has been found and it was returned to
her last weekend and she got to open it up
(40:01):
on Valentine's Day. Where they end up finding it social media,
like I guess it got put out there, and then
the Chicago Historic Society they helped and I don't know,
somehow that ring had been found and put somewhere and
they were able to reunite it with her. I just
wonder if it was in the same place where she
lost it, or if it had been kicked around a bit.
Amy lost her ring once at her own house for
(40:22):
a whole winter. Yeah, my husband was in Afghanistan and
we were driving to Texas, me and my mom for
the winter. So my mom said, well, let's just get
in the car. We got to hit the road and
you can find it in the spring. So yeah, once
the snow had melted and I was back, I rented
a metal detector and I found it amazing. It's pretty cool,
that's what's all about both those stories. That was tell
(40:45):
me something good? What do you have? Okay, so my
guy friend has been dating a girl about two to
three months, like they're not seeing anybody else, and then
he's over at her place and randomly she's got a
dog there and she doesn't have a dog, and she said, oh,
I'm just pet sitting for a friend. And then he
finds out that the friend is her ex boyfriend. So
I just didn't know if that was something he should
(41:08):
care about or you know, what would you do if
like Caitlin suddenly was taking care of some dog and
it was her ex boyfriends world class. If she really
said it's just a friend and withheld that it was
an ex boyfriend, I would be concerned. Yeah, I don't
think it was like I mean, I think that's how
(41:28):
it came up. Was like not a big deal, but
just FYI we used to date and also what's the
dating history? Was it serious dating or did they go
out a few times? I would have no problem with
it as long as it was told to me upfront. Hey,
Trent's dog who I was a part of that dog's life?
(41:49):
I need to take care of for a couple of days.
Is that okay? Oh, I still be tough. I'm trying
to act like I'm I don't know about that. I
know my friend was trying to be like super I
was trying to be super cool, and I don't know
that that's the best idea. I have talked myself out
of what I should do and what I feel like
I would do. I know my husband and I were
(42:09):
both like, uh no, I don't think I could take
I don't think I don't think I would be okay
with her continuing. Obviously she's already doing it, but like, hey,
from here on out, could we not pet sit your
ex's dog? Yes, that's the side that I'm gonna lean.
I don't think it's good for that relationship unless her
ex has absolutely nowhere to go with it and she
talks about it and say, hey, listen, if nobody takes
(42:31):
his dog, it's gonna be hungry. Let's still let's like
gop go to walk wags for walk or whatever the
dog app is that watches your dog. Yeah, that's tough.
I'm on your side. I'm shallow. Well, I don't know
that for sure that I have a letter. Just no,
that's all of our sides. Yeah, if you cannot do it,
you shouldn't do it. And it's weird that she didn't say, Hey,
(42:53):
I'm i'm pet sitting my ex boyfriend's dog. I honestly
don't think she was keeping it from him, but she
just she is clearly. Also, now it opens up a
conversation of oh, you're still friends with this person, because
two to three months is still a fairly new relationship.
But he definitely could see himself with her forever, so
he just is curious. Okay, mister commitment. Now I'm worried
(43:15):
about that. Well, let her know. Two months in he's like,
I'm with you forever. My instatement is not a good situation.
Try to get somebody else to watch the dog. But like, so,
how does he bring it up? You say I'm comfortable
with do you watching your ex boyfriend's dog. That's weird
to me, right, Sometimes you're just needy. And then he'll
(43:36):
I guess he'll find out real quick where she stands,
because either she's gonna be like, okay, I respect that,
I won't do it anymore. But if she's like, no,
I want to care for this dog, then that means
she wants to care for that last world classic suck
to Robin in Little Rock, Arkansas. Hey, Robin, how are you? Hey?
(43:59):
I'm good, How are y'all? I'm doing pretty good. I'm
super pumped you on the phone. We're gonna play a
little game here where I'm gonna read you these love
speeches from movies. Okay, so I'm gonna read a real

Robin's good. It's George Bailey from It's a Wonderful Life.

Fill your tank up with gas unless you have a
really big suv then you'll do like three quarters to
your tank. Webby. I just wanted to tell you that
I love um your bulldog. Um, I have a bulldog too.
He's fourteen and his name is Flash. He's fourteen but slash, Yeah,
(49:24):
let me ask you this again. He's fourteen years old.
He's fourteen. He just turned fourteen as a bulldog. That
is really really old. And good for you for for
taking care of him keeping alive that long. I know,
I know, yeah, we thought we were gonna lose him
back in October. Um, but um he rallied and um
so now we're just um taking it day by day.
(49:44):
But you know, we're just grateful for every day that,
you know, extra day that we get with him. But
he is totally blind. Um and if you want to
screw him up, just move some furniture or a sorry day.
This story comes us him. Orange County, Florida, a man
was mad because a couple months ago, a tow truck
(50:05):
company had towed his car and he vowed revenge. So
he went to the tow truck company and stole the
toe truck. Oh, I imagine he didn't get far. No,
they got a report, and then police pulled him over
on the highway and he was like, yeah, I was
mad they took my car, so I took theirs. Yeah.
It's like when someone steals an ambulance or a cop car,
like how far do you really think you're gonna get?
(50:25):
Or a pizza truck. You know, it's like the name
Totinos he's written on the side of the truck. All right,
there you go. I'm muchboxed out your bone head. Story
of the day. These boaters they went out for the day,
and people always want to see dolphins or whales or
maybe a shark. You know, if you're out in the ocean,
right this eight foot sharks circled this boat for fifteen minutes.
(50:47):
Oh my gosh, the mean one, the big great white shark.
Imagine you're out on the boat's nice day and then
this shark is circling you for fifteen minutes. That's what happened.
And I don't think I've ever seen a shark accepted
in a aream, have you, No, I've never seen one
like at the ocean. I think i'd be freaking out
a little bit though. The eight foot sharks circled down
(51:07):
for fifteen minutes. They took pictures, But I guess you
only circle when you're hungry. Yeah, for sure. If I also,
if I was on that boat and I saw the
article the other day about how the shark just jumped
in and ate the boy, well pulled the boy. The
dad jumped in on the shark and saved him, I know,
but still tried to eat him. Thank you, We'll see
you tomorrow by running remembering the dream of doctor Martin
Luther King Jr. Bit if the Bobby Bones show
Transmitting good MORNI studio morning. Why don't I go to
Carrie and Saint Charles Missouri, who's on the phone. Hey Carrie?
How are you good? How are you pretty good? What
can I do for you? So a couple of years ago,
you guys did a segment. It was right after Amy
(00:24):
got her kids, and it was I think, it was
what you're grateful for? And then what keeps you up
at night? And I still remember to this day Amy's answers.
It like touched me to my soul. She said like
she was grateful for a bottle of motion because her
kids had such dry skin, and they like wouldn't let
her put it on, and they finally did. And then
what kept her up at night is that she slept
(00:45):
on the floor with her I think, I don't know
if it was her daughter or her son, but they
supped on the floor because they didn't even know what
a bed was. And I thought that was incredible. And
now all of you guys have had such big life changes. Um,
I wanted to ask that question. Now, if you guys
could go around and see, you know, name one thing
that you're grateful for and one thing that keeps you
up at night. Amy For me, I am super thankful
(01:07):
for therapy, and what keeps me up at night is
learning to set boundaries. And you know how that might
affect certain people, but I'm trying to practice what did
I do now? Not you? Well, I mean maybe it's
in friendships and relationships, all kinds of things you can
set boundaries, but I'm not used to it. So it
definitely keeps me up because you get worried that I'm
(01:29):
letting someone down or hurting someone's feelings when really it's
not anything I should think twice about because boundaries are important.
So but that does keep me up for sure. But
that's why I also circle back to why I'm thankful
for therapy. Well too, when you get older, you don't
have time for as much bullcrap, and you start to go,
I just don't care, Like this isn't that important in
(01:49):
my life, so I'm not going to put a lot
of time into it and make it that important. So true,
and sometimes that's a boundary of I just don't have
time for this crap. Right, My boundary is I'm time
for you because you're dramatic the end, not worried about it,
no drama because you don't exist in my little space anymore.
And that's just because we get old and tired. Yeah, well,
it's not even just boundaries regarding to anything dramatic or drama,
(02:12):
but just healthy boundaries for yourself. That that totally makes sense.
And if other people are aware of boundaries too, then
they get it. Other people, dramatic people exactly. Eddie. I say,
I'm grateful for the strength that God gives me to
be a parent for four kids. Like that's tough and
I don't know how I do it. There are certain
days or weeks I go through and I'm just like,
(02:32):
I don't know how I did that. I tell I
would have quit a long time ago. So that's that's
a big one. I don't know how it happens. So
thank you God for doing that for me. Giving me
that strength I am keeps me up at night. I
would say, just my just worried about this job, like
just a little bit, you know, Um, I think it's
just a weird time for everyone and we don't know
nothing's guaranteed, and I just hope that we have a job.
(02:53):
What do you know that I don't nothing nothing, But
you know, you talked to a lot of people. They're
losing jobs left and right, and you just worry that
that that could happen to anyone at any moment. Lunchbox,
I am grateful for the invention of the lottery because
it allows me to dream big and imagine my life
when I hit the lottery and becomes super rich and
what I'm gonna do. And what keeps me up at
(03:14):
night is my kid in the middle of the night
yelling dad da dad d my blanket, my blanket, or
I need a hug that keeps me up at night
because there's three thirty in the morning and they're yelling.
It literally keeps literally keeps me up at night. I
do that same thing with Kaitlin. No blanket, Mamma, blanket Carrie.
(03:34):
Thank you for calling. Are you satisfied with those answers?
I am, and yes, it just yep, it's great. Just
listen about the kids because I have two kids myself,
so the literal keeping you up at night, and then
also you know, just thinking about keeping up at night
just does. And yeah, it's all all big, exciting, exciting
(03:54):
things for you guys. So thanks for having me on
the show. You guys are awesome. Thanks carry have a
good day you too. We're so adult now, I know.
I just thought about that, and it's a it's a
change that I've had to embrace because for most of
my career I was the youngest to do it. I
was twenty two, twenty three doing mornings in a big
market and syndicating myself, and I was like, oh, look
(04:16):
at this. I'm an adult. I'm a grown man, are
you know. Don't make me go full Gundy on you. Yeah,
we're getting there. I'm maybe I'm getting to that part
of my life a little later than some people, but
I think a little earlier I was doing other parts
of my life. Sure that some people. So we're all
just figuring it out the best way we can. All. Right,
Here we go, open the mailbag something year. Hey, Bobby Bones,
(04:45):
I'm writing to you because my girlfriend likes to wear
this old Alan Jackson T shirt from the nineties to
bed sometimes. You know, I never thought think about it.
And don't get me wrong, I love Alan Jackson until
I found out that it was a Rex's boyfriend's T
shirt that she took from him be before they broke up. Okay, now,
I know they had an amicable breakup, but I told
her I don't want her wearing his shirt anymore, and
(05:06):
she refuses to get rid of it. She said she
only wears it because it's so comfortable and she likes
the shirt. I said, hey, if you're gonna wear it,
I won't stay next to you anymore. Do you think
I'm overreacting? I thought you could tell me and you
will settle the debate. Signed Kevin. This is a great email. Yeah,
this is the kind of juice that we wait for.
(05:27):
We love we love these Listen. This is what you do.
You go and you try to find that exact shirt
on eBay, some old Alan Jackson, big shirt, same size.
Maybe you find the same one, maybe you don't, and
you give it to her and you go, hey, listen,
I was wrong to say, hey, just get rid of
(05:48):
that shirt. It makes me uncomfortable because it was from
your ex boyfriend, and it makes it just does it
makes me uncomfortable. And then you say, hey, I got
you this as a gesture because I am asking you
to get rid of it, but I have you another one.
And then that's I feel a transition that makes her
not lose a battle and also gets to her a
nice comfortable shirt that's what I would suggest. But she
has to lose the shirt. Oh yeah, like that's not
(06:09):
a thing. We don't allow that. Yeah, you communicate about it.
When you wear that shirt it makes me feel, and
then share with her how you feel. And then maybe
the story that you tell yourself, even in your head
is whether it's true or not. Oh my gosh, she
must still be hung up on her boyfriend, and you know,
then that's the story you tell herself yourself. And if
(06:30):
she can't respect that, then I don't know. I'm assuming
she already knows that, because if he's brought it up,
she has to know why he brought it up. Okay,
I'd say, you do all that in a Respectfulay, exactly
what you're saying, but you also give a gift to
kind of lighten the mood. But here's my thing. When
you do sit down and share that, her response is
very important. And her response was, I'm not losing the shirts.
(06:52):
That's already happened. Okay. Well, I didn't know how fairly
he presented his because don't act like just take it off, yeah,
or like I don't like you wearing that shirt. But
when you sit down and give her your honest feelings.
Why when you do that it makes me feel blah
blah blah. And this is the story I tell myself, like,
that's a great communication tip for anything that's going on.
And then if she still doesn't understand your feelings and
(07:16):
doesn't because she cares about you want to make you
feel better, then I think then you question overall where
you're going off the ledge they're not. You go to
her and do what Amy said in a nice way,
but you also give her a new shirt. It just
is it makes it much easier for her to be
like okay, because again she probably has some pride about
(07:36):
it too. It doesn't want to lose a fight. You
know how you dig in now, I mean you you
know how you dig in at times? Yes? I know,
But I just think that this is a great way
to see how she would respond. But we love Alan Jackson,
so we'll take that shirtmail it up here the original.
But she can't keep the shirt right, No, No, definitely
(07:56):
not there. You go. Thank you for your email, Morgan.
If they want to reach out to us, what happens,
they just email mailbag at Bobby Bones dot com. Thank
you very much. Close it up. We've got your that
was found to close. Bobby Maia, it's the good News countdown,
(08:16):
counting down the biggest good news stories across the lad
It's the greatest countdown on the radio. Let's go. A
septic company in New Hampshire found a wedding ring in
one of its trucks. The ring was found in the
depths of a septic truck. By the way, let me
just say this, but it has now been reunited with
(08:38):
its owner, cleaned and shine looking and smelling as good
as new. And you know what I gotta say, whoever
found it could easily kept it and sold it taken
to a pun shop. They didn't, found it, tracked it,
gave it back, and that person's wearing that pooper ring
for the rest of their lives. Far A long time
pizza delivery driver named Robert Peters and Indiana got a
(08:59):
new car after people in his town pulled their money
and gave him nineteen thousand dollars. He's been delivering pizzas
for thirty one years. Was driving a beat up ninety
three Oldsmobile. Now he's driving a two seventeen Chevy Malibu.
Here's Robert talking about it to me. This is luxury.
This is the first car I've had has been made
the twenty first century. But the community has done what
Tanner has done. He's gone far beyond a call of duty.
(09:20):
It means a lot to me that people would do this.
Come on, that's awesome. A guy in North Carolina raised
a bunch of money for charity by running forty three
miles on his forty third birthday. Wow. Justin Bailey did
to raise money to give food to those in need.
Here's a clip from wfmy News too opportunity to include
(09:41):
something I love doing, which is running, bringing other people
in to run with me, and also being able to
raise money for a good cause. So after seven hours,
thirty nine minutes and twenty seven seconds, Justin Bailey crossed
the finish line forty three miles on his forty third birthday.
That's a lot of running, man. A guy in North
(10:03):
Carolina got a gift bag from his boss for Christmas.
Very nice, and in the gift bag had lottery tickets
inside of it little scratchers and so everybody had one,
but he took his home, got around and scratching it
off one two hundred thousand dollars. Wow. Wow, that is insane.
Changed that guy's life. And how about everybody who didn't
(10:24):
get they got a different ticket. Someone left a fourteen
hundred dollars tip at a restaurant in Colorado, not to
just one person, but two hundred bucks for each of
the seven servers who were working that day. That's awesome.
That the good news countdown. It's time for the good news.
(10:48):
A guy rescued an older woman who had wandered away
from her home in the snow, and she had fallen
and crawled into an old car of his to get warm.
So one of his neighbors said, Hey, I think somebody
crawled into your old car that you keep beside the house.
And it's like, there's no way wro in the middle
of a snowstorm. Are you talking about? So he goes
out there and he opens the door and he sees
an old lady in there, going, this is the only
(11:10):
place I could get to. She's I'm cold, I'm scared.
Can you please help me? So he rushed inside, got
a bunch of blankets to wrap her up, warmed her up,
and then took her over to reunite with her family.
Said he almost never uses that car, so he leaves
it unlocked, and again, had his neighbor not seen what
looked like somebody crawling in the snow and then him
going out to save her, she would have just been
(11:32):
in there for who knows how long. It's not a
crazy story that she was even found. Yeah, that's what
it's all about. Right there. That was tell me something good,
remembering the dream of doctor Martin Luther King Jr. Bit
if the Bobby Bone Show. Amy. When you were a kid,
what did you want to be when you grew up? Oh,
probably a veterinarian and then a news anchor both. Huh
(11:55):
well yeah, veterinarian is early on when I was like
a little little kid, and then high school cool like
for career day, I went to the local news station.
I've never heard you once say you wanted to be
a news anchor. Oh yeah, I remember. I was obsessed
with Judy Demaggio, and so much so later when I
did have a career in sales. She came into the
place where I worked and I had her sign something
unofficially like, I's like, we're going to need your signature
(12:17):
right here for this. She was a local newsperson, and
I thought I wanted to do that, but didn't even
major in that in college. I moved on, Edie, what
do you want to be when you grew up? Rockstar, lunchbox,
anything famous? I was gonna be on the Real World
and then it was gonna take off, but really army
because I liked camouflage, didn't you. At one point this
is the long lost story of Lunchbox, he claims he
(12:39):
almost got a call back for Real World. Oh no,
I did. I went and tried out. I drove from
San Antonio, Texas to College Station, Texas and tried out
at the what's that called the Dixie Chicken? Amy, Uh,
that is what's called the Dixie Yeah. I tried out there.
And I drove back to San Antonio and I had
a night class economics, and I was like, might as
well go to class. And I got home that night
(12:59):
and there was a call from three two three, and
I asked my room, I said, Hey, who called you
from three two three? Goes? I don't know that number,
asked my other roommate, who called you from three two three?
Don't know who that is? Look it up, La. They
were calling me back. They wanted me back, but they
had to call you again. They wouldn't just call it.
That was it. They moved on. It was over. That
was that was my shot. And I what I learned
(13:20):
is when you go audition for things, don't go to class.
And why didn't they call my cell phone? I had
a cell phone. I put my cell phone number down,
but they called the house phone back when those were
a thing, and they didn't leave a voicemail. And that
was it and I missed my shot. It was very
I was so crushed. We don't know if they were
really offering you a spot, and they wanted to at
least reinterview me, like, hey, bring him back like this,
(13:41):
dude's good, great, bam. Well, I'd like to share a
story now that I've just learned. Did you know, Scooba
Steve was offered a spot on the real World officially?
What back in the day did you know that? No? No,
like on the real world, real world, Scooba, Yes, on
the actual real world. So this was in two thousand
and seven when the Internet was kind of popping his lunchboxes.
Put his hand on his head. He isn't now destroyed.
(14:03):
Go ahead, and the step part is, I'll preface this.
I had to turn it down. So they didn't talk
to me. You had to turn it down. If you're
applying for Real World, why would you ever turn it down?
It was for Love go ahead. So what had happened
was they did an online submission for their last castmate
on Real World Hollywood, which I've always wanted to be
on some sort of reality television show at that point
(14:23):
in time my life. So we did this huge campaign.
I was in a band, as we talked about before,
and at every show we promote to vote for me
to the audience. I promoted on MySpace like heavily. I
got all kinds of people to vote for me, and
I got to the top and it was between me
and another guy. They chose me. But at the same
time though, I was going off after this one girl
who became my ex wife, and she gave me the
(14:44):
ultimatum like, hey, you can either go this whole reality route,
I'm out, or you choose me. I unfortunately chose her.
I turned down a Real World. They went with this
other guy from Daytona Beach, Florida, and he ended up
up doing really well in the show. But I turned
it down for Love, which was an awful mistake because
I would have loved to be in a real world Scooba.
(15:04):
Steve was offered a spot on the Real World. That
is the worst news I've ever heard in my life. Like,
oh my gosh, Like it makes me sick because I
don't know how Scuba Steve is more interesting than me.
I'm way more interesting At that time my life, I
was the coolest kid in the block and was a
rock band that a lot to offer. The fact that
he turned it down for a chick, Like people that
(15:26):
go on the Real World are so stupid when they
go on with a girlfriend or boyfriend back home, Like
it's really gonna work. You are there to party and
to hook up, and you I can't believe you turn
it down for a chick. How dumb? Like why wouldn't
you go through the whole process if you have a
girlfriend and you're gonna turn it down because of her? Well,
I met her through that process when I was in
the band, like a couple of months, a couple of weeks. Actually,
(15:51):
oh my guys, come on, how stupid can you bean?
It turns up down that you've known for someone for
two weeks? It was pretty stupid. It was a dumb
choice because obviously she's max wife. She cheated on me,
so it was a horrible decision to have gone with
her versus the Real World. I didn't know Scooba Steve
was married twice, Me neither. When he said second ago
on Ashley Madison, hold, I mean story, so many interesting stories.
(16:16):
It's always it's like we're unwinding this most interesting man
in radio. And that's why I got offered a spot World.
I'm starting to I want to come. Did you talk
about that story would have happened? Yeah, because I was
in San Francisco on the radio, it was like a hole,
don't share too much, I want to save it. Yeah,
it was a whole month playout, like we just did
a bunch of things with it. Yeah. That's how I
found my new wife too, was through that process through Madison.
(16:40):
Scooba Steve our executive producer who comes on about once
every couple of days, but always with just like the
perfect nugget. And today it was that he turned down
Real World, and I knew what drive lunch box is
crazy because that's been his biggest goal in life. My
biggest goal in life since I was like twelve years old,
I'd watch Real World Miami Boston, San Francisco, and I
was like, I'm gonna be on that show or road Rules,
and it just never happen. And that means you could
(17:01):
be on the Challenge Scuba Prossibly. I'm killing myself about
it too. Right now. You could be going for millions
of dollars in these competitions. Instead, you turn it down
for a girl you knew for two weeks. And Hollywood
was a terrible season anyway. So do you want to
get a Scoob's autograph before I play? So? No? Okay? Yeah,
most kids love riddles. But what if we ask the
(17:22):
adults in the room these kids riddles? Let's play riddle
me this Amy, lunchbox Eddie. I will give you a
kid's riddle. All you have to do is get it.
You'll have twenty seconds after I finished the second reading
of it. Okay, For example, this is you guys, can
yell this one out? What gets wetter the more it dries? Right?
(17:46):
That's wow? Well that's an old one. Yeah you've never
heard that one. And I'm gonna be terrible at this. Okay, Amy,
you're up first? Amy, What goes up but never comes
back down? What goes up but never comes back down.
Riddle me this. I mean, I feel like eventually it
(18:10):
cycles itself back down again. But I'm just gonna go
with the first thing that popped in my head, which
was percipit. Evaporation. Yeah, I don't know because like then
the evaporates within it like comes back down as we're
doing this is a cycle. What goes up it never
(18:31):
comes back down evaporation. The answer is age your age, oh,
or that it's not gonna be so on the nose
and scientific. It's a riddle, yeah, and sometimes it is
not in the right head space. It's tough what you
get on one track. But to believe because age, that's
(18:52):
so true. A right amy, you've been eliminated. Okay, yeah, goodbye,
O siled that way, all right, lunchbox. What goes away
as soon as you talk about it? What goes away?

Here we go. What two things can you never eat

for breakfast? He correct amy riddle? For today? Am you
Amy's pile of stories? So survey was done and two
thirds of parents say that they rely on Google when
(23:49):
they help their kids with homework. So pretty much, no Google,
no help you. How do you feel about that? I
rely on Google YouTube videos really breaking it down for
me in order to help my kids with their homework.
You had any chance? No, no no, no, without Google? I
mean without Google? How do we even settle debates? Fifteen
years ago? Sure you'd be haven't dinner with a friend?
(24:12):
You'd argue, no, no, no. Columbus was in fourteen ninety two. No,
it's fourteen ninety three. I swear. Okay, Well what do
we do now? We had the encyclopedia? Yeah, and I
could go get a book. If you were out a vout,
you were just up poop creek without a paddle, That's right?
What else? The survey also found the top ways parents
get out of helping their kids with homework. Because I
(24:32):
know parents are going to keep these in their back pocket.
You can ask the partner in your life for help instead.
Come home late so you miss homework time, be busy
doing laundry or other chores instead claiming to be too
tired or emergency run. We got to go to the
grocery store. We're out of milk. A lot of great
parenting taken. Yeah, a good job, guys. I did read
(24:52):
a thing too where the same kind of story where
they said, like most dads will fake sleeping when the
baby's crying so they don't have to go either change
the diaper or ten to the baby. Yeah, it's like
they're like, close your eyes, I've done it. I'm sleeping. Yeah,
of course you're We're not surprised. What else? So I
have the best country karaoke songs Chadouci sit on there. No,
(25:14):
it is not dumb list that top five so yeah,
people want to know. And number five Amarillo by Morning
George Tray. It's a great song, but is it the
best karaoke song? Up from San Aunte ring to the survey? Right,
Eddie just got everything all right in At number four,
Needs You Now Lady A tough one saying and you
(25:36):
need to have two people doing it, like I guess
a good duet country song. And number three Shania Twain
Man I feel like a Woman Fun one and number
two Karrie Underwood before he cheats. People are have some
pretty big goals on that karaoke stage, trying to sing
(25:58):
like Carrie or Lady A and and A Number one
Garth Brooks Friends in Low Places the best song, right,
it's like fun unless you can really really saying karaoke like,
do the most fun fun song possible. That's a good one,
all right. So workout pictures, if you post them, apparently
they help your followers. Um Like, if you run a
(26:19):
ten k and you put it up, or you're doing
a cross fit wild workout and you put it up,
people that follow you on social media will feel bad
about themselves for not running a ten k, so it
gets them moving. I at times feel inspired when I
see someone working out in a picture. I'm like, oh, dang,
that does affect me a bit. Yeah. Like I'll see
Seacrets sometimes on that he's got like some sort of
(26:40):
a rowing thing he stands on. I'm like, hey, gosh,
you're gonna work out. I'm always one step behind secrets. Yeah,
I guess as long as it's part of you wanting
to feel good and you know that working out will
get you there, but like I feel like it's it's
so a lot of these before and afters, depending on
where you are in your journey, can be harmful because
if someone's side before and after, just picture be working out. Okay,
(27:01):
just you doing the thing, gotcha? Okay, we almost got woke. Amy,
I stopped it. I plugged the hole. Thank you, because
I want to be sensitive to the fact that some people,
when they see that stuff online, it actually can be
really damaging. No, it's great for me if I just
somebody working out like Hendrison the gym today, Like, that's great.
They actually carved out an hour of their day. Why
can't I. It's not like every hour in my day
(27:21):
is the most important hour. I need to do a
little me time. Yeah, like a little time for me
to make myself better, either physically or mentally. Good job,
plugged up. That hole was ready to come through. Sorry. Yeah,
maybe that's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories.
It's time for the good news. Well this is pretty
(27:47):
cool because it's from my neck of the woods in
South Texas. There's a family hanging out in their house
in Santa Rosa, Texas, and they realize there's a fire
and it just gets out of control real quick. So
everyone tries to get out of the house as fast
as they can. They make it out, and then quickly
they realized, oh crap, we forgot grandma. Grandma's still in
the house. How do you forget grandma? They did. I mean,
I'm sure they're rushing bones, you know. So they like,
(28:07):
they said, somebody's got to go back in and get Grandma.
So fourteen year old son Bradley Garza, he gets a
shirt to cover his face from the smoke, and he says,
I'm going in. He gets in the house and he
just searches everywhere. He says, it's hard to see, but
he found Grandma, pulls her out to safety. Everybody is okay, Wow,
I wonder if it goes like home alone. We're like,
cay man, Grandma, Grandma? How do you forget grandma? Though?
(28:29):
I don't know. Man, that's good. He saved her. Yeah,
shout out dan, grandma? Do you go for first? I know?
But Grandma she got out safe. That's what it's all about.
That was tell me something good. It's a voicemail we
got last night from Ari and Piper. Here you go,
morning studio, Morning do you want to give us a
shout out to our MoMA aubreyasauple get that in the
(28:51):
whole world. We love the show and can never stop
listening to it. One of our favorite parts is Amy
in the Morning Corning. Do you appealed to everyone? Yeah?
At your windows? And Eddie lunch Buck all he also
love town me sound being good? Days to go back
by that all song and Dan plan sign these girls
(29:17):
up with something pretty good. All RM Piper a shout
out to you guys. That's pretty cool. You love the
Morning Corny. Let's do it now here we go, Morning Corny.
Why didn't the Green Pepper practice archery? Why didn't the
Green Pepper practice archery? Because it didn't have a narrow Oh?
(29:38):
I like that? That was the Morning Corny. Hey, did
you ever have a boyfriend back in the day or heck,
maybe your husband does this now. It just wants to
fight if something goes wrong. I've never dated fight guy.
H I mean, maybe e when I was sixteen one
of the yeah, but I don't even know if he
(29:59):
was fight guy or just being a teenage kid. But
nobody in my life currently is fight guy. Like you've
never been at a bar and somebody steps on somebody's
shoe and next thing you know, it's a come on no.
And I'm not attracted to fight guy, like, I want
you to be able to control yourself. They say, men
with a fragile sense of masculinity are way more likely
(30:20):
to act aggressively to prove their manliness. That makes sense.
So the guy that always wants to fight is fighting
to prove that he's a man, and the guy that
doesn't need to fight isn't is a big man as
he's a big man. I'm not gonna fight the guy
that runs away, the guy that cries and grabs another
man to stand in front of him, that's the guy
(30:41):
you want to be with, lunchbox, Are you fight guy?
I'm not a fight guy, but I think women like fight, guy, Like,
if you are going to if you're a woman is
in trouble, they want to see you step up and fight.
They want to see someone that is brave. And I mean,
if we need to, we can fight. But I mean,
no one really wants to fight me because they know.
I think the difference in if somebody's hurting your girl,
(31:03):
no no, no, Let's say some guy knocks your girls
drink out of the hand and doesn't say sorry or
excuse me. You gotta say something to the guy or
else your girl's gonna look at you bad, and you
gotta let your girl know. Hey, I'm not gonna let
people treat you like that. If you're at a bar
and a guy accidentally bumps into your wife and knocks
her drink out of her hand, it keeps walking, what
do you do, you, Graham, say, Hey, you're gonna come
(31:24):
back and apologize, or we're gonna him anybody you grab him? Yep,
where do you grab him? Graham by the shoulder of
the arm, whatever, You just hey, excuse me, you just
knocked the drink out of her hand, and you're gonna
go back and apologize, and they're gonna saying that you
shouldn't say, hey, would you mind apologizing? But lunch I
think you're having anybody? Yeah, I mean you're you're already
(31:44):
picturing that the guy's gone, like he's already walked away,
and Lunchbox is gonna get out of his way and
go grab him, say come back and apologize to her.
And then also, since this is radio and some people
might not know exactly what Lunchbox looks like I just
like to clarify that. A second ago, Lunchbox said, well,
you know, people see me, they know oh like they
know what like like they're not going to fight him
because of what they see. But Lunchbox isn't as big
(32:08):
as he sounds. He's like a like a guy like
jaggy hair. Like, it's not what you're expecting because I
know some people picture like he got a big voice,
a big guy. Where would you rank us on the show?
With all the guys here on the show, who you'd
want to fight least like it was probably the toughest
(32:29):
in a fight to the person that's the whimpiest. Okay.
I don't want to fight Screwba. He's first, Yes, hey
go ahead. Then I don't want to fight Ray because
he's scrappy, I think, and like, well, I don't know,
he works out all the time. Then I don't want
to fight Bobby. Then I don't want to fight you
(32:53):
have lost your darn mind. It's wrong with you. I
have lost your darn mind. Then I don't want to
fight Eddie. Oh wow. And then I don't want to
fight lunch Actually, like you do want to fight lunch Box.
It is but I'm saying, no, if you had to pick,
you'd fight him first. Oh, yes, so that's what I mean. Yeah,
Like it's like, wow, yeah, probably my best odds are
(33:16):
against him. You need to put some respect on my name. Okay, okay,
how does that make you feel? Unchbox? I mean, listen,
I'm not worried about her. Girls like her. That's the
one I'm not what I'm worried about, you know what
I'm saying. No, what is he saying? When's the last
time you've been in a fight, Lunchbox. It's been a
long time, been a long time. But there's been times
(33:36):
at the bar when he gets real closed and they're like, oh,
you know what, it's probably a bad idea, and they
back down. Oh they back down, you don't, yeah, or
someone diffuses the situation steps in between, things like that.
But that's the problem when you're a celebrity and you
go out to bars, some people want to pick at
you just because you're a celeb. Do you remember when
Morgan number two is boxing as she said she'd box
(33:58):
lunch Box. Yes, he said no, he said he was
he wouldn't do it. Yeah, correct, still won't mine Because
she's a woman. That's true. I mean, that's I mean,
that's true. That's true. Who would you rather fight, Morgan
number two or Lunchbox? Oh, lunch Box, let's set it up.
Let's go at mo. Yeah. Hey, she talks a big game.
(34:21):
Let's do it big game at lunchbox. Right, you didn't also,
I'm a woman, Hey, but you're talking trash. Let's go.
Let's go all right. Last week, Lunchbox went into a
local sub shop and paid for everyone's meal and hopes
that someone would contact the news. This is all ruted
(34:42):
in that Darius Rucker story. For Darius went or to
an eyehop, head dinner, paid for everybody's meal. Tip the
white staff made the news. So Lunchbox got jealous. I
do like that he paid for everybody's meal, though, right,
let's not let let it be lost that he did
go in and pay for everyone's meal. Eight people. Yeah,
that's a lot of money. But then he started yelling, hey,
tweet this, call the news. Here's a clip. Remember if
(35:02):
you hit up the news, He tweeted out Lunchbox bottom
on lunch let him know, I'm just a great guy.
Any news, CNN, Fox News, anybody. Yeah, remember Lunchbox l
U n C H Box let everybody know till the news.
So Lunchbox waited. The news never picked it up, right Lunchbox,
(35:23):
No no one ever called. They were one in a
single tweet, not a news story, not even on the
bottom line when you watch the ten o'clock news, like
you know how they have news on the bottom nothing.
So he decides to call himself and tip off the
news as his character. What's character's name Nico Jackson? Yes,
and show Nico Jackson just happened to be in line
(35:44):
at the sub shop when this lunchbox feller came in
and bought for everybody. Why does he sound like that
creepy old man from Family Guy. Yeah, he's like the
goodmard just sent me a conversation starter, Lunchbox. What the
inspiration for Nico Jackson is? What character you do? This
was just I really just was calling to Prink, called
(36:04):
my dad, and I talked very good at voices, and
so I had to kind of manipulate my mouth and
this came out, and I was like, Nico Jackson and
we had just had Nico moon in. I was like,
I like that named Nico. We'll go with Nico Jackson. Okay,
here is lunchbox calling the news. Here you go, Oh, yes,
(36:26):
this is Nico Jackson, and I gotta tell you I
got a great story for you over there at the
news station. So I was at the sub shop the
other day and this fine young gentleman comes in and
this guy starts yelling, hey guys, I'm lunch Box. And
he ended up paying for everybody's sub that was in line,
and it yes, and he was just he paid for
(36:47):
all of our subs. And he said, oh, if we
want to contact the news and I think he should
do a story on the young man. Okay, sir, that
sounds really nice of him. It sounds like a great
gesture to go in and do a little pay it
forward if you will. But is that all you were
calling in for? I mean I got a foot long
meatball sub and I even got a cookie because this
(37:08):
lunchbox guy was buying. I said, hey, might as well
get a cookie. Okay, Um, all right, that is interesting.
Well I will drop this down, and I'm glad that
you got a free stub out of it, and even
a free cookie. And it sounds like that was a
great afternoon for you. It really was. It was really good. Now,
I thought it'd be cool on the news, but I
(37:29):
guess you're saying no, not today, but in lunch box
a big celebrity. He said he was on the radio,
and so I figured that means he's big time. You know, Uh,
there's some bigger people on the radio. I think I've
not personally heard of him. I can ask around the
news room, but that's not one that i've personally heard.
Oh okay, well all right, thank you, all right, thank
(37:52):
you for calling. All right, bye bye, hurt. It heard
on a lot of levels, like first of all, they
didn't take your story was big enough, right, like a
little bit You're like, dang, I thought this was my
shot here. Oh yes, I was like I thought she'd
be like, oh, yes, we need something positive. You know,
we always have negative news on the story. Maybe we'll
(38:13):
have something positive. And she wasn't even like she didn't
even want to entertain it. Oh and then oh, I
don't even about it, don't go there like it. Like
re hearing her say that, I was just like, that's
like a dagger in the heart, Like she could have
just said, oh, yeah, he's a great guy. No it said,
she goes, oh, there's probably there's bigger ones because I've
never heard. Oh my god, but it's a dagger in
(38:35):
the heart. Why because lunchbox thinks that he's the biggest
thing around, right, sure? Yeah, Like, how does she like
if she's living in a cave, she's never heard of me?
Come on, you should have asked her who her favorites are.
Let me tell you. At that point when she said
and I've never heard of a mod danced about the
news room, I was just ready to get out of there.
I was like, I'm done. Hate was that here in town?
(38:56):
It was a local one? Oh no, oh no, never
heard of goto. Well, you're not gonna make the news.
Sorry about that, bud. Yeah, I'm not gonna make the news.
So who do I ask to be getting reimburse that meal?
You can ask everybody, but ain't nobody gonna reimburse you
(39:18):
for it. That's funny, all right, Nico Nico Jackson, every Jackson.
It's time for the good news. So back in nineteen
seventy three, this woman that lives in San Antonio, Texas,
was up in Chicago visiting her grandmother. When she was
(39:39):
loading up her three kids to get in the car,
her wedding ring flew off her hand and fell into
the snow. Once it thawed, they did a search for it.
They weren't able to find it a few weeks later,
and yeah, she's gone forty eight years without that wedding band.
But it has been found and it was returned to
her last weekend and she got to open it up
(40:01):
on Valentine's Day. Where they end up finding it social media,
like I guess it got put out there, and then
the Chicago Historic Society they helped and I don't know,
somehow that ring had been found and put somewhere and
they were able to reunite it with her. I just
wonder if it was in the same place where she
lost it, or if it had been kicked around a bit.
Amy lost her ring once at her own house for
(40:22):
a whole winter. Yeah, my husband was in Afghanistan and
we were driving to Texas, me and my mom for
the winter. So my mom said, well, let's just get
in the car. We got to hit the road and
you can find it in the spring. So yeah, once
the snow had melted and I was back, I rented
a metal detector and I found it amazing. It's pretty cool,
that's what's all about both those stories. That was tell
(40:45):
me something good? What do you have? Okay, so my
guy friend has been dating a girl about two to
three months, like they're not seeing anybody else, and then
he's over at her place and randomly she's got a
dog there and she doesn't have a dog, and she said, oh,
I'm just pet sitting for a friend. And then he
finds out that the friend is her ex boyfriend. So
I just didn't know if that was something he should
(41:08):
care about or you know, what would you do if
like Caitlin suddenly was taking care of some dog and
it was her ex boyfriends world class. If she really
said it's just a friend and withheld that it was
an ex boyfriend, I would be concerned. Yeah, I don't
think it was like I mean, I think that's how
(41:28):
it came up. Was like not a big deal, but
just FYI we used to date and also what's the
dating history? Was it serious dating or did they go
out a few times? I would have no problem with
it as long as it was told to me upfront. Hey,
Trent's dog who I was a part of that dog's life?
(41:49):
I need to take care of for a couple of days.
Is that okay? Oh, I still be tough. I'm trying
to act like I'm I don't know about that. I
know my friend was trying to be like super I
was trying to be super cool, and I don't know
that that's the best idea. I have talked myself out
of what I should do and what I feel like
I would do. I know my husband and I were
(42:09):
both like, uh no, I don't think I could take
I don't think I don't think I would be okay
with her continuing. Obviously she's already doing it, but like, hey,
from here on out, could we not pet sit your
ex's dog? Yes, that's the side that I'm gonna lean.
I don't think it's good for that relationship unless her
ex has absolutely nowhere to go with it and she
talks about it and say, hey, listen, if nobody takes
(42:31):
his dog, it's gonna be hungry. Let's still let's like
gop go to walk wags for walk or whatever the
dog app is that watches your dog. Yeah, that's tough.
I'm on your side. I'm shallow. Well, I don't know
that for sure that I have a letter. Just no,
that's all of our sides. Yeah, if you cannot do it,
you shouldn't do it. And it's weird that she didn't say, Hey,
(42:53):
I'm i'm pet sitting my ex boyfriend's dog. I honestly
don't think she was keeping it from him, but she
just she is clearly. Also, now it opens up a
conversation of oh, you're still friends with this person, because
two to three months is still a fairly new relationship.
But he definitely could see himself with her forever, so
he just is curious. Okay, mister commitment. Now I'm worried
(43:15):
about that. Well, let her know. Two months in he's like,
I'm with you forever. My instatement is not a good situation.
Try to get somebody else to watch the dog. But like, so,
how does he bring it up? You say I'm comfortable
with do you watching your ex boyfriend's dog. That's weird
to me, right, Sometimes you're just needy. And then he'll
(43:36):
I guess he'll find out real quick where she stands,
because either she's gonna be like, okay, I respect that,
I won't do it anymore. But if she's like, no,
I want to care for this dog, then that means
she wants to care for that last world classic suck
to Robin in Little Rock, Arkansas. Hey, Robin, how are you? Hey?
(43:59):
I'm good, How are y'all? I'm doing pretty good. I'm
super pumped you on the phone. We're gonna play a
little game here where I'm gonna read you these love
speeches from movies. Okay, so I'm gonna read a real
love dialogue, and so we're gonna have Eddie play against you. Okay, Okay,

I'll let you play. But you sent these to me?

Fill your tank up with gas unless you have a
really big suv then you'll do like three quarters to
your tank. Webby. I just wanted to tell you that
I love um your bulldog. Um, I have a bulldog too.
He's fourteen and his name is Flash. He's fourteen but slash, Yeah,
(49:24):
let me ask you this again. He's fourteen years old.
He's fourteen. He just turned fourteen as a bulldog. That
is really really old. And good for you for for
taking care of him keeping alive that long. I know,
I know, yeah, we thought we were gonna lose him
back in October. Um, but um he rallied and um
so now we're just um taking it day by day.
(49:44):
But you know, we're just grateful for every day that,
you know, extra day that we get with him. But
he is totally blind. Um and if you want to
screw him up, just move some furniture or a sorry day.
This story comes us him. Orange County, Florida, a man
was mad because a couple months ago, a tow truck
(50:05):
company had towed his car and he vowed revenge. So
he went to the tow truck company and stole the
toe truck. Oh, I imagine he didn't get far. No,
they got a report, and then police pulled him over
on the highway and he was like, yeah, I was
mad they took my car, so I took theirs. Yeah.
It's like when someone steals an ambulance or a cop car,
like how far do you really think you're gonna get?
(50:25):
Or a pizza truck. You know, it's like the name
Totinos he's written on the side of the truck. All right,
there you go. I'm muchboxed out your bone head. Story
of the day. These boaters they went out for the day,
and people always want to see dolphins or whales or
maybe a shark. You know, if you're out in the ocean,
right this eight foot sharks circled this boat for fifteen minutes.
(50:47):
Oh my gosh, the mean one, the big great white shark.
Imagine you're out on the boat's nice day and then
this shark is circling you for fifteen minutes. That's what happened.
And I don't think I've ever seen a shark accepted
in a aream, have you, No, I've never seen one
like at the ocean. I think i'd be freaking out
a little bit though. The eight foot sharks circled down
(51:07):
for fifteen minutes. They took pictures, But I guess you
only circle when you're hungry. Yeah, for sure. If I also,
if I was on that boat and I saw the
article the other day about how the shark just jumped
in and ate the boy, well pulled the boy. The
dad jumped in on the shark and saved him, I know,
but still tried to eat him. Thank you, We'll see
you tomorrow by running remembering the dream of doctor Martin
