Speaker 1 (00:01):
Transmitting across. So, guys, welcome to Tuesday Show Morning Studio.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Morning.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
Let's go around the room and check in with everybody.
He loves to tell us that he's a cool dad.
When a son didn't want to go to Drake with him,
that made him sad.

Speaker 4 (00:20):
It's Eddie, guys. I've got myself a new hobby. I'm
going to be breeding butterflies.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
How did you even know this was a thing. I
was watching some show on Netflix. I don't know.

Speaker 4 (00:33):
It was like a fiction show whatever, And like the
one of the characters he does this, he goes and
into the garden and finds little eggs or whatever and
just raises butterflies and he lets him out in the
while with the intention to do what I think he
was doing, like endangered species. So he was like trying
to help the population of that monarch butterfly.

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Is this a hobby?

Speaker 3 (00:52):
Is that like when you say you want to give
a kidney to somebody or you do your charity word
like when you literally have done nothing.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
No, I've already ordered my kit. Then okay, you're you're
ordered my kit. It's like a cage. What's a cage? Yeah,
a cage and it comes with three caterpillars. So you
start with the caterpillars.

Speaker 4 (01:09):
You feed it every single day, and you watch that
caterpillar turn into a butterfly, and once it's a butterfly
away you go, little butterfly.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
So you only have three and then what do you do.
I'm gonna go look for other cat Oh, you go
catch catch them in the water. I'm gonna go into the.

Speaker 5 (01:22):
Woods and let them. Why don't you let them evolve themselves?

Speaker 1 (01:28):
What do you mean?

Speaker 6 (01:28):
I get why the other guy if he's trying to
if something's in danger and he's trying to help multiply it.

Speaker 5 (01:33):
But you're just finding eggs.

Speaker 6 (01:34):
You don't even know what kind they are, and they're
already going to do their own process themselves.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
I think, you know, like rodents and stuff try to
kill these eggs. So it is a great thing to
say back to her, see them from rodents.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
That's a great thing to say back, because I also
was feeling like she was like, let them do their thing, man,
But I like that response. Yeah, let us know how
it gets with three butterflies. And I might bring my
first butterfly here and just let it out in the room.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
Love it. How cool would that be?

Speaker 5 (01:59):
This is what my kid didn't school when he was
like ten.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
You know, I hear you, But let's think I have
a hobby. Thanks like eighty four kids, you know, all right?
Moving on.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
He's always thinking a ways to make money, and most
of his bets and make us cringe, but they are
pretty funny.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
It's lunch fog.

Speaker 7 (02:15):
I really want to know what you guys have been
right about recently because I came on here and told
you this NCIS Sydney is absolute garbage.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
Terrible TV.

Speaker 8 (02:24):
It sucks.

Speaker 7 (02:25):
I don't know how the NCIS franchise let's this go on?

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Is it worse than the other ones?

Speaker 8 (02:30):
Though?

Speaker 1 (02:30):
Are they all that bad? Well?

Speaker 7 (02:31):
I've never seen any of the other ones, so I
had no idea, so I posted something on Instagram. I
was like, guys, what am I missing? This is trash?
And all the NCIS heads were like, you're right, it
doesn't compare the original.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
Is that their real name? Fifty and NCIS head I
don't know, Okay, got it.

Speaker 7 (02:47):
And they're like, dude, Hawaii and La and the original
are so much better. I can't believe they actually allow
this in the franchise. It's given it a bad name.
You're missing out, and they're like, I watched one episode,
I had to quit.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
So they all agree with me. This is not going
to last. How many episodes have you watched? What?

Speaker 7 (03:04):
Four?

Speaker 1 (03:05):
How many are there total? I don't know. You gotta
get to watch it because I need another report this week.

Speaker 7 (03:09):
I know, I know, I just I needed a couple
of days to decomprise from how bad the other ones were.
And I'm just glad that I am right and I'm
not crazy. I forgot. He wants to know what you
are right about? Have you been right about anything lately?

Speaker 9 (03:23):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (03:23):
I have to think. I don't know, have you, ben?

Speaker 3 (03:26):
I said it would be the Chiefs and the forty
nine ers in the Super Bowl?

Speaker 1 (03:29):
Right? Oh?

Speaker 5 (03:30):
You said that exactly?

Speaker 3 (03:32):
Well, not like eighty years ago, like weeks ago, a
few weeks ago, started on my Instagram?

Speaker 1 (03:37):
So but who cares? Do you know anything?

Speaker 9 (03:40):
Well?

Speaker 4 (03:40):
My wife said that I threw something away and I
told her I didn't, and then she ended up finding it.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
You're right, that's right about that. It feels good, doesn't it.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (03:45):
It feels good when you're right about something. America backs
you up.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
All right?

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Well, there you go thinking lunchbox when it comes to talking.
She's definitely a pro. She's up for an award for
her Women of iHeart Country show.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
It's amy.

Speaker 6 (03:57):
So sometimes when you're talking to someone or gone out
on a date and then they disappear, you might be like.

Speaker 5 (04:03):
What I thought we had a good time, we've ghosted.

Speaker 6 (04:06):
Well, my friend thought she had been ghosted after she
went out on one date with a guy and then.

Speaker 5 (04:11):
She never heard from him.

Speaker 6 (04:12):
And she did think that was odd because the date
ended with, hey, this is I had a good time, like,
let's do this again, and.

Speaker 5 (04:19):
Come to find out he died.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Oh what Oh he's a real ghost.

Speaker 5 (04:25):
Right, And she thought for a while she's built up
all this.

Speaker 6 (04:28):
You know, she was annoyed and frustrated and angry and
like what like why is he just leaving me hanging completely?

Speaker 3 (04:34):
What if he's a real ghost? And he's like trying
to tell her, I can't I go on a second date?
I'm not I promise I'm not ghosting you, but I'm
a ghost. Oh I just can't hear him in connect
he died, she found.

Speaker 6 (04:45):
Out through I guess you know on their day. As
you get to know someone who was like, I know
this person, this person, oh you know that person. So
then she asked around.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
And that stinks. That's this crazy story.

Speaker 6 (04:55):
I know, I know it's terrible. What but I just
you never know what happens to somebody. Maybe it's not death,
but it could be there could be.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
He really doesn't want to go out with there. So
we told the friend, tell her I'm dead.

Speaker 7 (05:09):
That's a little much, Hey tell her I'm dead the
coffee shop.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
All right, all right, ready, go ahead from Mountain Pine
Ark and saw his alarms keep going off at night,
giving him quite the fright.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Bobby Bone, thank you. We didn't have the alarmed company
come out by the way and fix it. And they
were like, you guys have been so patient with us.
I'm like, we have no choice. I haven't we have
a patient. We've had no choice. It just goes off
in the middle of the night.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
I want to do an update.

Speaker 3 (05:33):
There was some email account had gotten my number and
was texting me through their email saying they were Thomas Rhet.
Do you guys remember the story? And he wanted to
come over. I don't want to come over. You wanted
some golf balls on your golf simulator.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
Cause it was snow.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
He didn't have an indoor golf simulator. And I was
like yeah, and I was like come over any time.
It's like cool, how about today? And I was like
come over whenever. It never came over. So I came
on and said, hey, I think I've been there's an
attempted scamming, like I know Thomas Shutt's number.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
It was coming up from an email.

Speaker 8 (06:02):
Well.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
I got a text the next day from Thomas Shrett going, yeah,
that was me. I got to not feeling good after that,
Sorry about that. So it was him, Man, that's crazy
from an email address.

Speaker 5 (06:13):
I was like, maybe because he's texting on his computer.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Sometimes I texted my computer all the time.

Speaker 6 (06:20):
I know it depends on how you have it sinced
or because sometimes my computer will show up some weird,
my weird Apple email and people.

Speaker 5 (06:28):
Were like, who is this?

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Well, I thought I was getting hacked or scanned, and
I was and it was really him, that's crazy, And
he ran into Thomas rehtt somewhere.

Speaker 4 (06:35):
I did a basketball game. Yeah, and I embarrassed myself.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
What happened. It was terrible.

Speaker 4 (06:39):
Like so I was with my son, my ten year
old son, were walking to our car and there's Thomas
Rhett and I'm like, oh, what's up, dude. He's like, hey, man,
what's going on. We talked for a second, and then
he looks at my son. He's like, hey, buddy, how's
it going. My Son's like, hey, what's up? And I said,
do you know who this is? And my son was like, no,
no clue, that's Thomas Rhett, dude, And my son's jaw dropped,
like you're Thomas Rhett and Thomas I was like, yeah,

(07:02):
I'm Thomas Rhett.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
And I should have kept it cooler than that.

Speaker 4 (07:05):
I felt like I crossed that boundary of like friends
and like a starstruck you know what I mean, because
because it all changed after that, after that he was
I know, yeah, that would have.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
I should have been like, hey, you know, like we're
not peers. I should have been like, this is my buddy,
tr I said, he it's Tom Shutt. It's my friend,
but he also is a singer.

Speaker 6 (07:26):
Just keep it cool, or just like when you get
in the car, say do you realize who that was?
And then your kid can get excited that he saw him.
Does he have to know in front of him? But
I mean I'm sure Thomas Whett thought it was sweet
that your son was sure.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
I'm sure he wasn't bothered.

Speaker 3 (07:39):
He just won't ever treat Eddie the same because I'm
a finger. Oh yeah, let's open up the mail bag.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
The game mail and reading all the air.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
It's something we call Bobby's mail bag.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
Yeah, hello, Bobby Bones.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
I've always been passionate about vintage watches, but in the
last few years it's become a major part of my life.
I spend some time every day researching, trading, and talking
to other people online about watches. My girlfriend says it's
becoming an obsession and it's affecting our relationship. I disagree.
I love my hobby, but I wouldn't choose it over
my relationship. Should I push back on my girlfriend's assessment? Bobby,

(08:18):
I know you're now a watch guy. I've also heard
you can get fixated on things from time to time.
Is the passion I have for collecting watches? Unhealthy? Signed
William the watch Collector. Let's remove watches from this scenario.
It could be anything. It could be watches or water
or baseball cards or purses, any handbags, whatever it is,
video games, if it is actually keeping you from doing
things in your relationship that you would normally do, it

(08:39):
is getting in the way. If it is keeping you
from doing parts of your job that you would normally do,
it is getting in the way. But there's a certain
amount of time for hobby, certain amount of time for sleep,
sort amount of time for work, a certain amount of
time for relationship. You have to make sure when you
start to wonder if you're too much in one area.
What I will do is I will just keep track

(09:02):
of how much someone doing everything. If I look at
it and it seems that I'm spending way too much
time or money playing golf or video games or reading,
sometimes I'll just get obsessed and I'll just want to
read all day and I'll neglect everything else.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
So it doesn't have to be something that's bad.

Speaker 5 (09:17):
We'll watch cnting's fun and good.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
Right.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
As long as it's not taking too much of time, energy, money.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
Then you're fine.

Speaker 3 (09:29):
There are also people that you need to, you know,
have communication with if it is too much. If your
girlfriend says it's too much, she's obviously not being serviced
in a way that makes her feel like an adequate partner.
So maybe you peel from somewhere else, don't go to works.
Look a watch is missing even more time with her.
But I would just track your time a little better.

(09:49):
I'm I do this too, and if I'm like, wow,
I'm spending way too much time doing whatever it is
for like a week, I will just I won't change anything.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
I need to monitor it first.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
I need to see how much I'm doing it and
what is taken away from and then I will adjust accordingly.

Speaker 6 (10:05):
Yeah, and I think oftentimes other people in our lives
see things before we do, or they're.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
Wrong about video games. I mean, sorry, watches, no.

Speaker 6 (10:14):
But they they see they may She's thankfully she can
express this to you, and I would. I would definitely
take seriously what she's saying because she's noticing stuff a change.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
You know, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna co sign
her argument quite yet. I think he needs because he'll
be resentful if he just changes because she said that,
he'll be resentful to her.

Speaker 6 (10:33):
I'm saying pay attention because I think outside our friends
are partners, watches over everything. They may notice changes in
us before we do.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
The only thing that I have trouble, like resting my mind.
I don't do good at vacation or relaxing. I tried
to meditate, and not to meditate like I'm trying to
connect with Buddha, but like, just rest my mind because
my mind feels like it's on a treadmill. My therapist,
I just feel like I'm on a treadmill that never
turns off. The only two things I can do to
not think. And I finally, after all this time, I

(11:04):
found them play video play Madden Football or NBA. That's it,
because I don't. I'm not thinking about life, but you're
thinking about the game, right, Yeah, But I'm not focused
on eighty thousand things all at once. That and read
because I'm only focused on the words in front of me.
And sometimes I'll find myself drifting off while reading, and
I'm like, oh, I got a vote. But that's what
anybody I know that meditations they can do is just
focus and stay focused on on whatever their mantra or

(11:28):
image or and it lets their mind relax from all
these other pressures and noises. But that's what I get
when I read or I play PlayStation. It's the only
time I relax.

Speaker 6 (11:37):
So now, are you like idating?

Speaker 1 (11:40):
It's my meditation time. Let's go go ahead.

Speaker 6 (11:44):
Said that's but also for anybody who's trying meditation or
like you know, a prayer time like that or something,
and your brain goes all different kinds of places because
mind does give yourself grace.

Speaker 5 (11:55):
Nobody's perfect. Even the best.

Speaker 6 (11:56):
Meditators admit to like, hey, if your mind wanders, just
be like, oh hey, mind wandered. Note, come back to president,
come back to where I am, come back to whatever.

Speaker 5 (12:04):
Yeah, the mantra the thought.

Speaker 3 (12:05):
And don't think meditation is some sort of religious thing.
Prayer can be, but that that is also a form
of meditation for some people. Yeah, so think of meditation
is for for a lot of us that tried to
do it. Now mine became with bad sleep. It's not
a religious thing. It is trying to be a calming
focused thing. Because some people like I'm never gonna meditate
because I don't. I'm not gonna praate it some raw

(12:28):
the sun god, and I'm like, well we just made
raw very mad. All right, good luck track your time, buddy.
All right, that's what's up that close the mail bag.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
We got your gaen mail and.

Speaker 9 (12:39):
We laid on you air.

Speaker 2 (12:40):
Now let's fund the closed Bobby's mail bag.

Speaker 3 (12:43):
Dear hope everybody's having a great morning. Lunchbox is a
little sour today.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
What happened?

Speaker 7 (12:50):
So we had the snow apocalypse that hit and everything
was closed. City was shut down for like a week. Well,
my kids couldn't go to daycare because guess.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
What, it's closed, closed right, Well check my credit card.
Guess what. They still charge me for daycare full price?
And I'm like, uh, you weren't open. Is daycare a
subscription service?

Speaker 3 (13:13):
How does that work? Like you pay even if they don't.
Let's say they're open and your kids don't go, you
still pay if they don't go? Yes, okay, got it?
So it's like a class, right, like.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
You pay for them.

Speaker 7 (13:22):
But I'm saying, like they should be like, hey, we're
not going to charge you this right because we're not open.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
So you didn't pay for a service.

Speaker 7 (13:30):
Well you didn't get anything in return, so yeah, why
would I pay for it if they had given you
the option? Correct if like we're open if you want
to come, but we understand the roads are bad.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
But it was Nope, we're closed, can't come.

Speaker 5 (13:41):
You won't get a week somewhere else? Like ye about it?
You did Are you sure?

Speaker 3 (13:47):
Yep?

Speaker 1 (13:48):
What did they say?

Speaker 7 (13:49):
They said, Oh no, it's uh open or closed where
you get charged, like it's it's not an option.

Speaker 5 (13:54):
Did you sign a contract?

Speaker 1 (13:56):
I don't know if I could look at that.

Speaker 4 (13:59):
If you have net Flicks and like it's out for
a couple of days, yeah, I would compare it to that, right,
But Netflix doesn't really stay out for a whole day.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Think about its Netflix has ever been out for.

Speaker 8 (14:09):
A whole day.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
No, like there's been like Internet up of my house,
or there's like glitchy occasionally in Netflix when they but
it's never been out for a day. So I understand
the analogy, but I can't believe for a week they
would charge you.

Speaker 7 (14:19):
It was like me rolling up to Sonic and them saying, no,
we don't have any burgers, but you always fifty bucks?

Speaker 1 (14:23):
What my sword of You didn't agree?

Speaker 3 (14:28):
I know, But if you had agreed with Sonic to
come by and get a burger and pay for a
burger every.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
Week, and they were yeah, it's still weird. It's still weird.

Speaker 7 (14:36):
It's like Eddie's Chicken, Like if someone was subscribing and
paying him per week and he didn't give me any chickens.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
It's like if they were subscribing, they.

Speaker 5 (14:41):
Were okay, it's crazy, okay.

Speaker 4 (14:43):
And a real example, would you like to DM me
and my oh you're saying right now if you want to.

Speaker 6 (14:48):
A real example is like that week my daughter takes
dance and her dance classes were canceled, and what they're
doing is she'll get a free makeup at some point
and so we were not charged extra. Although so that's
why I thought Lunchbox this place could maybe do that
or like half off.

Speaker 5 (15:04):
I mean, I get that their business and now they've lost.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
All this, but so much so they'd be like I
should ask other parents. I don't really know. I don't
rally the troops, talk to other parents.

Speaker 5 (15:15):
You should get some free.

Speaker 7 (15:16):
Days, hood up going and get the kids get out.
I mean I don't want people.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
Saw your hood up? Which kid do you get all? Three?

Speaker 6 (15:22):
Well?

Speaker 1 (15:22):
You get the hood up? Fell weird? No, no, I'm saying.
So other parents don't stop me and want to talk
talk to me and like oh what's ah? You know,
are you anti social? I don't understand.

Speaker 7 (15:31):
Oh man, Like, what's it like working with all you know,
all the celebrities and you know you get.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
Nobody says anything to you because I thought you were
the celebrity. No, they do.

Speaker 7 (15:39):
They say, like, what's it like being with celebrities all
the time. They would ask, say, when they come in,
you just play wordle? I do let them know that,
you do let them know that. Yeah, it's a new
new thing. I I have not just started this wordle thing.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
Are you good at it?

Speaker 7 (15:55):
Not really, because there's like sometimes I'll get like three
letters and then I'm like, there is no word with
those three letters, and you sit there for like fifteen
twenty minutes and it's like there, oh that is a word.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
Yeah, okay, but you're doing that fifteen twenty minutes while
we're doing the show. Yeah, but every once in a
while I do get it in two and that's like, man,
that's awesome dude. During the show though, right, yeah yeah,
during the show. Yeah yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (16:18):
It's like if we if we didn't have a show
and we didn't have anything to put out there, but.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
We still charge people to listen. We don't arge listen anyway. Yeah,
but anyway, I feel like it's weird. Your analogies are
kind of hurting your.

Speaker 5 (16:31):
I gave a real life example.

Speaker 1 (16:33):
Yeah, they should. They should make it up.

Speaker 6 (16:34):
To you did.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
I'm not give it a real life example.

Speaker 8 (16:36):
You did, so.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
It's still a kid. Yeah, but they still charge you
fifty bucks for a burger.

Speaker 3 (16:44):
Let us know if that changes. It feels like that
should change. Maybe they accidentally charged it, had it rope,
you know running. Oh, maybe they didn't go in and
update the system.

Speaker 5 (16:51):
Yeah, because its retro show up somehow.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
Possibly, Yeah, I doubt it. Let us know.

Speaker 8 (16:57):
It's time for the good news.

Speaker 5 (17:03):
Okay.

Speaker 6 (17:04):
So there's a pet duck, Sofia, and she lost her
partner of four years to a predator and Sofia was distressed.
So her family put on Facebook like a personal ad
for her, or on social media like I guess across different.

Speaker 5 (17:20):
They described Sofia as a.

Speaker 6 (17:22):
Single female duck fond of walks by the pond, Yeah,
searching for a mate, and the response was overwhelming, hundreds
of people offering up their ducks to join Sofia, and
eventually they found the perfect match for her, and now
she's happy again. They can definitely see their friendship, their
bond and no, she's no longer.

Speaker 1 (17:42):
Signing our emotions.

Speaker 5 (17:43):
It's duck, by the way, No, I think you can
tell when an animal is sad.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Wouldn't have you lost your partner for how long?

Speaker 3 (17:49):
But I didn't know their ducks found partners and stayed
with them. I know that lobsters do, starfish, maybe penguins.
I don't know about ducks, but hey, that's great.

Speaker 5 (18:01):
Well, when I have ducks visit, my ducks all smile.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
No, no, they don't. So how do we know they're distressed?
See the ducks therapy bill. Maybe they walk in circles.

Speaker 6 (18:10):
Well, when I when my ducks would visit, when I
came to my backyard and like they would show up,
and they were so cute, and I could tell when they.

Speaker 5 (18:21):
Do little spins in the water, and that.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
Meant what they were happy? Got it?

Speaker 3 (18:24):
So we're assigning what we would do to what a
duck would do. Although I like it. I'm glad all
the people came forward and said, here have our duck
cute idea. That's that's fine, Okay, that's what it's all about.

Speaker 8 (18:33):
That was telling me something good.

Speaker 3 (18:37):
We're bringing back to Bobby Bones sent them a club.
So all of us put a movie into my Arkansas
razorbacks helmet. We draw and we have two weeks to
watch it, okay, right, something like that, then we'll review it.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
So far, we've watched Rope from Eddie. Great movie. I'm
like the Dinosaur Age.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
I think you guys all liked it, and I mean
it looked like a high school production according to my life,
but it was just all.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
It's from the fifties.

Speaker 5 (19:02):
One act play.

Speaker 3 (19:03):
The stuff from Lunchbox, which was a horror movie, but
it was like real goofy about yogurt.

Speaker 1 (19:07):
That eight you that was amazing from my childhood. Man
gave me nightmares for years.

Speaker 3 (19:11):
Shotgun Wedding from Raymundo, Oh Boy, which was a Jennifer
Lopez Amazon movie.

Speaker 1 (19:15):
I like that, Show Girls, Yeah, fantastic.

Speaker 3 (19:19):
Horrible, Whoa whoa wo Man on the Moon from Me,

Steve and Abby but Morgan me oh yours is neither now.

Speaker 1 (19:46):

You're love my movie. It might be one of the
best of all time.

Speaker 3 (19:52):
Mixing it up here, look at this, don't even know
if they are to showing you guys.

Speaker 8 (19:56):
Just mixing here? All right, the movie.

Speaker 3 (19:59):
We're gonna watch it, and we invite our listeners to
watch this with us too.

Speaker 8 (20:02):
Did you hear the review?

Speaker 7 (20:06):
Oh, come on, it's not mine, not long enough.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
Oh wait, Oh, it was already folded half. It might
be mine. It's the name of a movie, not a person.

Speaker 8 (20:16):
Is that how it went? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (20:18):
Oh? What's the movie? I never heard this?

Speaker 8 (20:22):
Who picked a movie?

Speaker 5 (20:22):
This?

Speaker 1 (20:23):
Someone's never never heard of? Who picked like an obscure movie?
Whoa Probably me, but maybe me?

Speaker 8 (20:27):
What was the obscare movie?

Speaker 1 (20:28):
You picked Roman? Holidays?

Speaker 3 (20:29):
We have?

Speaker 1 (20:30):
Yeah? Yes, what's Roman? Oh my gosh, you guys are
gonna love this year. Is it from nineteen fifty three? No,
it's Audrey Hepburn. Okay, And this one's for the ladies.
Oh no, you're gonna love this movie. Oh my gosh,
I'm so glad we picked that one. Oh man, you
might have to buy it. It's only two hours and

(20:51):
twenty seven minutes. No way, it's that long, guys, because
a lot of stuff happened.

Speaker 5 (20:55):
They made movies that long back then.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Yeah, I guess so that it didn't have editors. They
just what is it? One take? No, No, it's not.
What did you say to Mike. It's because I've only
had one person watch it. Yeah, old people don't know
how to review.

Speaker 4 (21:10):
Oh my god, this is a great boy classics.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Okay, you have two weeks to watch Roman Holiday, Eddie,
stupid old movie. Audrey Hepburn, Man, I never heard of it.
You know who Audrey Hepburn is. Yeah, I've heard her.
What does she do? She's an actress? Yeah? Yeah? And
Gregory Pecks in it. Oh did you guys are gonna
love this one? Amy, I think you're really gonna love it.

Speaker 3 (21:31):
For the ladies, all right, think the lady Bobby check
back in in two weeks. Thirty forty somethings what they
regret not doing when they were younger? That's the article
from BuzzFeed, and so pretty much we're all thirty or
forty something. Yeah, so what do you regret not doing
when you were younger? And then I'll read one for

(21:53):
everyone that you guys share I can go first, if
I'm gonna go real younger, not learning music, not being
in band, oh yeah, because everyone's like bands for nerds,
and I was a nerd but also played sports and
also was like, I don't know if I can afford
an instrument, but it probably could have figured it out
like we did everything else. But I really regret not

(22:15):
learning music young, so I would have an idea of
how to do it better today, like piano anything, just
learning music.

Speaker 6 (22:22):
And so I quit piano as a kid, and my
mom fought me on it and I won, and I
wish she had made me.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
Stick with it. I mean, you could have been like
a huge piano player. No, but you could have.

Speaker 3 (22:32):
Been Picasso, Amy, you could have beenso piano.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
You really could have been the Pacasso piano. And let's
say you already are.

Speaker 6 (22:40):
Good guys, Amy, you I would say traveling, I mean
even just domestically.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (22:49):
I wish I would have taken more time free kids
or even marriage or something. I don't know, just even
going places by myself. Oh whoa, maybe I'll have time
for that. I couldn't do that.

Speaker 1 (23:01):
Still, we got our good back, that's right, Oh we
do now.

Speaker 6 (23:04):
Yeah, But I remember in college I supposed to study
abroad and then it got canceled because the nine to
eleven happened, and so I just never took that opportunity.
And I feel like that would have been my foot
in the door to doing something like that and experiencing
different cultures.

Speaker 3 (23:16):
So here are a couple on the list here turning down
invites and opportunities to meet new people and travel.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
It's kind of like yours.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
Be a teenager, I was too eager to grow up
and focus on almost exclusively work from fifteen to twenty five,
so I'm missed out on the whole thing.

Speaker 1 (23:28):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (23:29):
I'm pretty happy I did that, because I wouldn't be
where I am now had I not got started early.
But I do understand some folks to feel that way.
Lunchboxs you, oh Man.

Speaker 7 (23:38):
Travel was one because like with my roommate when we
were younger, when we were working, we should have just
taken weekends and gone places. But I was like, you
need a week to go somewhere, But we could have
gone partying for weekends in different cities, met different chicks
and like different background.

Speaker 1 (23:52):
Not as much more chicks from different backgrounds.

Speaker 7 (23:55):
Yeah, instead of just like Austin's Sixth Street girls, you
know what I mean, like Lubbick. Yeah, I mean I
I mean Houston, I mean inner background. And then also
maybe not gone to class as much because that cost
me my chance to be on the real world because
I went to class instead of being there for the
phone call?

Speaker 1 (24:14):
Uh. Do you wish you would have never gone to
college seeing that you didn't graduate?

Speaker 3 (24:18):
Like?

Speaker 1 (24:18):
No, college is fun.

Speaker 7 (24:19):
Man, Like I met some people that I'm friends with
to this day, So I think it was a good experience.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
And what about the college part of what if you
could have met and all the experiences, But just like
the because you're like ninety five percent there, do you
wish you would just never done any of the school
part of it?

Speaker 7 (24:33):
No, some of the schools school because like I used
to do history was boring and I took history in
college and that was the first time I was like, oh,
this is actually interesting now to actually read about history
and now no, but for that, you know, two years
I had history classes.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
I was like, man, I learned something. What kind of
history were you interested? I'm not sure what's ever one
he was teaching Eddie. Man, I just realized this one recently.
It's four oh one K. I should have been doing
this since day one, not still don't even know if
I have one.

Speaker 4 (25:01):
But can you imagine the money I would have if
I started a four oh one K when I started working,
when I was I don't know what, eighteen years old. God,
I'd be loaded, dude. And now you guys talk about retirement,
would be loaded because you were.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
A dollar you put a dollar in there a week.
I mean, I know you don't put a dollar in
there a week from another guy who didn't start it.
He's trying to behavior. I would be loaded.

Speaker 4 (25:21):
I didn't have the money, but I mean, my retirement
would be like coming up soon.

Speaker 7 (25:25):
I do wish i'd learned about like stocks and bonds
and all that earlier in my life.

Speaker 1 (25:29):
But no, but you still haven't learned that. I'm just
I'm trying to learn.

Speaker 7 (25:34):
But I'm saying, like people talk about, you know, having
a portfolio, and I don't know.

Speaker 4 (25:37):
What you CDs and stuff like they talk about that
stuff in banks.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
I don't know what that is. You guys can still
learn that, Yeah, but it's too late, man, not too late.

Speaker 9 (25:45):
You're not.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
It's like, do I regret that Morgan, You just turned thirty.

Speaker 10 (25:50):
Yeah, one of my regrets is a relationship that I
was in.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
That's fair, But what what's the bigger part of that?

Speaker 3 (25:56):
Not jumping into a certain type of relationship or having
different stands, like what's the macro to the micro?

Speaker 8 (26:01):
I think it was.

Speaker 10 (26:01):
That I, because of things that I went through, I
had low insecurity in myself and so that was probably
the bigger picture, is that I just wasn't grown enough
to be in that relationship, and then I probably would
have never been in that relationship that long.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
So you so, what would you change? What do you
regret not focusing on that led to that?

Speaker 10 (26:21):
I think I regret not focusing on myself and just
being by myself at that point in time instead of
just like jumping into a relationship. I wish I just
would have just been me and hung out by.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
More about yourself and what you wanted. Yeah, that's good. Ray, Yeah,
I got so many. I'm probably gonna say it, why
do you have so many? You have a good life, man,
I have a great life. But there's just a lot
of things you can think aback in retrospect. But I
really do wish i'd have move to the South. Had
my parents just send me away to a relative's house
so that I could have played sports year round. Because
I lived in winter cold six months of the year,

(26:51):
I couldn't throw a baseball and I still played college baseball.

Speaker 3 (26:54):
So I mean, I really think I could have made it. Yeah,
is that you live in the South Southeast. It's warmer
and much more you can play out, So I'd do
outside sports more.

Speaker 11 (27:01):
So if you would have grown up in Texas, he'd
be in the Major League. You're looking at Texas right there,
Nolan Rayan Scuba, Steve coming to you last all in
the sports vein.

Speaker 2 (27:14):
I think it was mostly because you get stuck in
your head as a child and you just think people
are judging you, and you just I was in that
space where I had no confidence in public. At home,
I was phenomenal at basketball. It was so good. I
would never miss a.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
Shot, or what do you mean?

Speaker 2 (27:25):
At home, Like I had like a basketball court in
the back garden, and one of my parents were married.
They they bought that for me and built it back there,
and I practice every single day, and I was so good.
But when I would go to like school or for tryouts,
I would kind of like keel over, and then I
would skip it, or I wouldn't go, or I come
with some sort of excuse as to why I shouldn't go.
But I regret that because man, I feel like if
I would have put the effort towards it, I wouldn't

(27:47):
be here right now. I'd be like Ray, I'd probably
be in the MLB or the baseball or MLB or
the baseball about basketball. NBA is what I was going
FORBA got nervous. Did it killed over?

Speaker 1 (27:56):
I was, yeah, exactly, I'll start talking. I don't know
what it is.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
Maybe other people experience this where I know what I
want to say and how I want to handle it.
But then every once in a while I get this
like rush of energy and it gets stuck in my chest.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
Every day for me for five hours and I can't
say it, Like, how do you get through that?

Speaker 2 (28:11):
You don't like, I'm still trying to just do it
more to stomach through it, and.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
You realize when you mess up, it's not that big video.
But then you're more relaxed because even if worst case
scenario happens, you're gonna be fine, which actually helps you
in best case scenario. That's just general performance anxiety. For me,
why do you guys look at each other when he said.

Speaker 4 (28:27):
NBA if he was, I was really good.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
For your backyard, dude. No, but like, but also you're
not like genetically an the lead athlete, right, Like some
of the people come in the NBA. They're not as well.
They just worked really hard at it and they got
better at guys, that's like, that's like Division two college
Jeremy Lynn.

Speaker 3 (28:44):
Jeremy Lynn is a great example leads still playing overseas
and yes, but he.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
Wasn't though he worked towards it and he became really
good at it.

Speaker 5 (28:50):
So were you ever playing against anybody or just yourself?

Speaker 1 (28:53):
He was good against a ghost man.

Speaker 7 (28:54):
I was like he was playing by himself at you.

Speaker 1 (28:58):
You don't really think you could have been in the
NBA had you.

Speaker 2 (29:00):
I really think it's that's one of those sports if
you work towards the crowd.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
No bowling is that basketball you can get to a point.
But it does have to do with the bitter athleticism
as well.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
I don't know what I think you can work like.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
For example, I coach a kids basketball team and I've
seen these kids grow over the year and some couldn't
even shoot the ball in the beginning, and all of
a sudden two weeks later, now they're putting the ball
into the hoop. It's a it's a skill that I
think you can get good at.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
Yes, but you're growing, and so are the people you're
playing against, and the higher you go, the more athletic
and the more work they've done. Jeremy Lynn is six three.
He wasn't always six three, though he was seven.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
He was right, he was seven years old, he wasn't six.
Then you're really thinking, honestly, I honestly think that how
tall are you? Five to ten?

Speaker 2 (29:43):
I am six foot flat, okay, but there are NBA.
Look at Muggsy Bogues who's five foot three.

Speaker 1 (29:50):
And athletic.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
There were like two or three people ever small like
that blud Webs, bud Web.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:56):
But again why they were a stories because nobody was
like that. They were so rare. Yeah, well, well I
could have been so rare as well. The kid in
his backyard that became like Earl Boykends was small. Yeah,
he was all five five five six. Spudweb was small
slam dunk champion. But again, the reason their stories is
because that is an anomaly and they.

Speaker 7 (30:15):
Could jump out of the gym they I mean, at
least I could jump really high too.

Speaker 3 (30:19):
I was.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
I couldn't put there. It doesn't matter. I like you
a lot, and you're fun to hang out with.

Speaker 3 (30:24):
But I don't think you could have an NBA player,
And I think it doesn't matter what I think.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
Everyone on the soup, even with me, I could not
have been.

Speaker 3 (30:34):
I was a decent baseball player, yeah, you know, even
in high school, even outside I mean I was All
Regional Conference defensive player of the But I know my
athletic ability would have kept me from I would have
peaked probably at like a small college, even if I
worked all the time, which is what I did, because
it didn't really have the athletic ability to be elite.
It's a mixture unless you're a bowler that you can train.

(30:55):
I feel bad now. I think I felt like a
crestious dream.

Speaker 1 (30:58):
I want to play something out though.

Speaker 10 (31:00):
Scuba also said that he could hit like a homer
automatically playing softball.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
And we played a softball game and you can even
get a hit. You know what I want to say
about that.

Speaker 3 (31:08):
But I've realized I love your enthusiasm scoop Steve and
your confidence in yourself, because I should take everything back.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
I said, you could have been a dang NBA player.

Speaker 5 (31:15):
But he has the confidence now.

Speaker 3 (31:16):
But there's nothing there's no reason for me to say
you can't, Scooby, you would have definitely been an NBA player.

Speaker 1 (31:20):
I take everything back. I said, thank you. I appreciate
it so much. Well now he really regrets it.

Speaker 7 (31:24):
I mean, what what great did you like? You played
on your high school team? Did you ever get recruited
or no?

Speaker 3 (31:28):
That's the thing, because I didn't have the confidence to
go on try.

Speaker 1 (31:31):
He didn't try.

Speaker 3 (31:32):
But he could go one on one with ghost Man
and be every every game guard.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
But he couldn't. But he could have been with Jordan
out there.

Speaker 9 (31:39):
Man.

Speaker 3 (31:40):
Okay, Scooba Steve, thank you. Thanks for being vulnerable. We're
giving you a hard time and I think you could
have made it.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
Thank you. I really appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (31:44):
All right, buddy, Okay, I'm just gonna end this segment.
But if there's anybody out there in their teams or
early twenties, listen to listen less. Here here's a voicemail
from Kim and Tennessee Morning Studio.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
I have a morning corny for Amy.

Speaker 9 (31:59):
What do you get when you put together brown chickens
and brown cows?

Speaker 6 (32:04):
Brown chicken, brown cow, have a good day.

Speaker 9 (32:07):
Love the show?

Speaker 1 (32:07):
All right? Thanks, here's Rachel and Cleveland.

Speaker 9 (32:10):
I just wanted to let you guys know that ever
since I started listening to you in twenty twenty one,
every single morning now with my second graders, I give
them a morning corny and it's always themed, just like
Amy does for all the seasons and holidays and things
like that. And they love it and they even know
it by the morning corny. They ask for it every day.
Just that I say that.

Speaker 1 (32:28):
Love you, guys, I appreciate that your.

Speaker 8 (32:32):
Amy's pile of stories.

Speaker 6 (32:34):
Republican state senator Missouri filed a proposal to bring back duels,
so if one member of the Senate insulted another member,
they could challenge them to a.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
Duel and weapon have gone, dude, silly string?

Speaker 5 (32:47):
Oh paintball gun.

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Well, that's a paintball gun. That'd be cool, that would
be cool.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
Well, an original duel, I believe was a sword and
then it turned into guns.

Speaker 6 (32:56):
Oh yeah, well, says here, they'd have to agree upon
which weapons to use, and that the duel would take
place on an agreed upon date in the well of
the Senate at high noon.

Speaker 7 (33:07):
Oh so it's not where they ride the horse and
hit them with the No, that's a jous.

Speaker 1 (33:11):
Oh. I was thinking if they get picked on weapon,
it'd probably be taxpayer money. They just waste it. They
just thole at each other and burn it. Nobody would
like that, Well, they would, that's what they do constantly. Yeah,
all right, what else?

Speaker 6 (33:22):
So one third of gen Z shoppers admit that they
prefer self checkout Kiosk so that they can shoplift.

Speaker 3 (33:30):
Oh that's why they Well I think if I were
a shoplifter, I would prefer that too. Yeah, I just
don't prefer I just don't prefer shoplift.

Speaker 6 (33:39):
Like, two thousand gen Zers were surveyed.

Speaker 3 (33:43):
And it's going to be pretty easy to get away
with the occasional thing if you're buying other things. Where
it would be tough, I think is if you don't
want to pay for anything and you try to get through.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
But if you're I go a Walgreen sometimes and it's.

Speaker 3 (33:54):
Like I do four or five things and sometimes I
don't recognize or I'll accidentally put it's on the other side,
it never recognizes it at all.

Speaker 1 (34:01):
I just feel like that'd be pretty easy.

Speaker 4 (34:03):
Yeah, yesterday I mixed an onion and the lemon and
there were two different sizes, so I got a discount
and it never changed.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
Maybe changing the shoplifted then thirty cents.

Speaker 6 (34:12):
Well, those that admitted to shoplifting say they steal the
most expensive item from their cart, and it's a vindication
sources for them because they feel like there's so many companies,
companies out there that don't care about their customers, only making.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
Well, that's not their job, stealing, I know.

Speaker 6 (34:29):
And then I had to look up exactly the year's
gen z, so it's if you're born between nineteen ninety
seven and twenty twelve.

Speaker 1 (34:35):
Yeah, that's losers. You had even losers.

Speaker 6 (34:41):
Just getting Dolly Barton has teamed up with CBS to
create a two hour variety special. It's a pet gala
and there's going to be a runway of dogs wearing
Dolly's most iconic ensembles.

Speaker 1 (34:52):
I was going to co host this with Dolly.

Speaker 5 (34:54):
Really. There's also going to.

Speaker 6 (34:55):
Be performances of Dolly's hits, but not performed by Dolly,
performed by Laney Will saying Carly Pearce and others.

Speaker 1 (35:01):
They called and said, do you want to co host
the show at Dolly? It's on CBS. I think, did
you say that yet?

Speaker 8 (35:05):
I did.

Speaker 3 (35:06):
I was like, yeah, that'd be great, and they were like,
you don't know what it is. I don't care to
host anything with Dolly. And I was like, all right, cool.
And so then a few weeks go by and they're like, mmm,
we can't let you co host, but will you be
the voice of the announcer and the guy out in
the crowd, like the talk to people.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
And I said I politely passed, Oh is that the
bad news? Huh?

Speaker 3 (35:28):
Because I passed on that. I mean, they came back
and they were like, we can't let you go. I
don't know why they can't let they they couldn't let
me co host, but they were like and I was like, oh, no,
I'm sorry about that, but I thought it'd been fund
been a yeah.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
But I hope people still watch it unless you love me. No,
I'm just kidding. You go watch it, all right.

Speaker 5 (35:47):
That's my pile.

Speaker 8 (35:49):
That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the
good news.

Speaker 5 (35:53):
How much box?

Speaker 7 (35:58):
There's a sixty five year old man and he's walking
out on the ice of a frozen lake, him and
his dog Ruby, and all of a sudden, the dude
falls into the icy water. Luckily there's people on shore.
They call nine one one. They Hey, gotta get over here.
This dude fell through the eyes. We need help. They
arrive and they get this little like tube and they're like,

(36:20):
we can't walk out on the ice because it'll break
for us. So they tie it to a rope and
they lasso, lasso, throw it. Man, he's too far out there.
What are we gonna do? Hey, Ruby, come here, and
they attach it to his collar and they tell the
dude call Ruby, and he calls.

Speaker 1 (36:34):
The dude, Ruby, Ruby, come here.

Speaker 7 (36:37):
And Ruby runs out to him with the tube bottom
and shaves the dude.

Speaker 3 (36:41):
She's not that heavy, so the ice doesn't fall right,
and so he gets the tube and they pull him out.

Speaker 1 (36:45):
That's good, I mean, that's crazy. I had a girl, Ruby.
We have a like we have a pull in our backyard.

Speaker 3 (36:51):
And when it was really cold here and it snowed
for like a week here, it froze over completely and
I would see Ella, our dog, run across the ice.
I'm like, oh, no, that means she's gonnary run across
the pool now and think it's all First of all,
why does she do it the first time?

Speaker 1 (37:05):
Did she see a deer?

Speaker 3 (37:06):
Because deer is running on it too, And then now
what's gonna happen? And so I would get nervous when
we let her out, and but she doesn't go on
the water. I don't know how she knows the difference.

Speaker 6 (37:15):
Maybe does she take it and like put her pall
down and feel it, like is this hard?

Speaker 1 (37:20):
I've never seen her do that. No I haven't, but
I was worried.

Speaker 3 (37:23):
We don't let Stanley even go out in that part
of the yard because he'll drown if she falls in
the pool.

Speaker 1 (37:27):
She can swim out. She's you know, half everything.

Speaker 3 (37:31):
And Stanley can't bulldog. Bulldogs can't swim. They're basically dropping
a brick in the pool. I've had to jump in
and save them before me as a puppy. So but awesome, Ruby,
that's a great story. And I'll let you guys know
what happens with the elder situation she falls in. It
scared me though. She would fly across the ice running
and I was like, oh no, so all right, good job.
That's what it's all about. That was telling me something

(37:51):
good
