fifteen twenty seconds. Give us something here. Okay, So last
time I told you that Randy Houser is creeping into
my top ten list. Well, I have my top ten
(00:23):
list of country artists, my favorite of all time. So
yesterday morning you just kind of threw out there, how's
our top ten? Ever? I think he's sneaked in there. Yes,
So I sat down, made a list and he didn't
just sneak in there. He's deep in the top ten list.
Here Eddie's top ten favorite country artists of all time,
number ten, starting with ten Little Texas. I was in
their fan club. Big fan, you're in their fans have
(00:44):
to pay for that. I it was like a ten
dollars a year feed kind of thing when you're a kid.
Oh dude, it's huge. Yeah. I love what you get
in a Little Texas fan club, like T shirts, posters,
signed posters. Did you tell him that when he was
in here? I haven't told him yet. No. I saw
him in a concert Tim Rushlow, Yeah, he came out
to me. It was it been Rector's concert. The lead
singer Little Texas. He came up and sat down beside.
He's like, hey, man, how's it going? And first it
(01:04):
was dark and I didn't know who it was, and
then I was like I squinned Dad. Him was like, oh,
what's up Little Texas? I mean Tim all right? Number ten,
Number nine, number nine, Eric Church the Chief. Hey, And
at number eight here is Randy Houser. Baby, you like
Houser better than Church? I do? I mean Church. I
was a huge Church fan, and I still like Church.
(01:26):
But Randy Houser with this new album and this whole
interview that he did and then he got to acting stuff,
that's pretty cool. Number he's jumped seven. Number seven, Let's

Garth Brooks. Pretty solid less right on, Brandy. You get
a lot of Texas in there, yea. From Little Texas
to George Alabama Alabama? Okay, got four earl right next
out here he is lunchbox everybody. Amy I feel bad
(02:19):
for you. I feel like we give you a hard
time about your driving. You're not a good driver. We
tell you you're terrible, and I think that's really rude.
Say you feel bad for her, then you just continue
to rip on her because you run into fire, hydrants,
to walls, you pop tires on curbs, and then you're
teaching your daughter how to drive, which scares me. So
I want to say, maybe we're giving you a bad rap,
and so we're gonna give you a chance to test
it out. I made you a magnet to go in
(02:41):
your car so people can call and report you're driving,
just like semi drivers number show, that's our show number.
He says, how's my driving? Call no way my car? Yeah,
because you know how semi drivers. It says, how's my driving?
It has a phone number? And Amy, you always say
you always talk about instance is where people give you
the finger and you're like, I don't think I did anything. Well,
(03:03):
now we're gonna find out how bad of a driver
Amy is. I can't and so on the driving it
says eight seven seven seventy seven two six two two nine,
which is seventy seven. How'd you make that? Just Internet
your internet. How much like seventeen dollars, pay seventeen times,
you'll get reimbursed. That's a great. That's a little segment there.
(03:24):
I mean, should I change the voicemail too to hey,
if you're calling to lave it's a message. Great. Or
if you've seen somebody driving on the runo radically? Yes,
you have to drive radically. You say you don't, so
I want to. You know you always say, oh I don't.
I'm not that bad of a driver. Well, we're about
to find out how bad of a driver you are.
But then say someone is a listener and they see
this magnet on my car, they're gonna know it's me
(03:45):
and my car, and they're gonna follow me home. No,
they're not. Our listeners aren't crazy like that. So this
is what I think. She's not gonna put it on
today for no reason. They'll have to be something at
some point that you win. Okay, But I think it's
hilarious and keep that in your back pocket. Can you
drive around with it for a week? A week, well,
(04:07):
it depended, maybe a year. If you lose a big
game a day, maybe it's a tattoo. Who knows. That's funny.
What awesome. You're the one who brought up the magnets
on cars though, you talking about your daughter one, so
I thought i'd get you one. No, I thought about, like, hey,
you know team driver learning, a driver that's learning. I
can't remember the magnet, but it's for like learners, permit kids.
(04:28):
And I've put a magnet when she's in the car. Yeah,
you've had a lot of struggles though, all right, whatever,
all I'll put it on. I feel like it's a
how about after that about the week after Thanksgiving? Like
it why I didn't lose anything? I didn't all right,
pick a number one to ten, lunchbox four correct, All right,
(04:55):
thank you, lunchbox soule. Revisit it up next. Ye. I
feel like last week or so, I told you all
about how my mom was showing me death because she flew, well,
a cardinal flew into my back door and died. And
I was like, what is this message trying to be
sin because my mom is a cardinal. I think she's
a cardinal. Yes, No, I feel like I see her
(05:17):
in the cardinals and like they visit me at the
right time, And that one was something about death. Well,
I feel like now she's visiting me again with something
about life. And she was having so much fun in
my backyard, having this fun little bath and water and
playing around and just looked so joyful. So either it
was a message about life and enjoying the things that's
(05:38):
what I felt, or it was yeah, a message about bathing,
not a message, or like water is a conduit of like,
you know, just like getting the kidding of amy, And
I posted on my Instagram. There in Asia, there was
a Jesus statue. In the Jesus statue all of a
(05:59):
sudden was like crying and had water coming off of it,
and so all the people that lived in the village
and even the town outside of the village, they all
gathered and they saved the water and they started drinking it.
And so a lot of people got sick because it
turns out there was a toilet that was broken that
was overflooding into it, and they were but they thought
it was a sign because the statue was Okay, I
would not drink water. You're talking about how a bird
(06:23):
in your backyard totally different. That one is very ridiculous.
But I was confused because the bird died. But then
it came back to No, different birds. Different birds man
send different messages from there's not one specific cardinal. Your
mom's not one bird, she's many. Of course, Why am
I so crazy to think one bird? Many people see?
There are loved ones and all kinds of things. Butterflies.
(06:47):
You haven't heard that yellow butterflies say a story about it,
this Jesus to the broken, to the water. You said
one time your grandma never, but I didn't say I
believed it. A guitar fellow, No, but I never was like,
and that was one time. Ever, I don't look for it.
My grandma died and she gave me this guitar before
she died. Every time when she died and I was like, hey,
I don't know if you hear me, and then the
(07:07):
guitar fell over. That's crazy. But even then I'm like, well,
I'm also propped it up wrong. Yeah, I believe that
more than the cardinals. Though. If AMY were to stand
there and say, Cardinal, come land on my shoulder, now,
send me a sign, and it did, you gotta believe
we'd be in Yeah. Otherwise taking a bath. It's okay.
They want to see message, absolutely, to want to, yes,
(07:28):
but to believe that they're all messages. Is that's why
I say I bring it to y'all like saying, I
don't know, this could be this. I don't know. You
sound like you're saying this is this. Okay, Ray, I'm
ready from Mountain Pine Ark and saw he's in the
Raging Idiots banded and most of what's said on this
show is unplanned. Bobby Bones, Thank you very much, Thank
you very much. I finally watched episode one of Yellowstone.
The new season's out. By the way, you can't watch
(07:49):
it on the Paramount app. It's not there. Yeah, you
have to watch on Paramount Plus the channel. So if
you have cable on demand, I go beat Hey Yellowstone.
I don't say hey, yellows, I just say Yellowstone and
then it pulls it up. And he watched the first
two and so I watched the first one and Laney.
I watched Laney. Yeah, Wilson. She shows up at the
end of the episode and she actually has to act
(08:09):
like real line. She has a real character. She's got
like a romantic interest type thing. And I messaged her
right after. I was like, I felt really awkward when
I first saw you because I'm like, please be good
because I don't want to have to lie, and I
don't have to lie. She was good. It didn't I
never thought she was acting, even though I saw her.
It's weird to see one of your friends up there
doing that. But she was good. I'm excited to see
(08:30):
what's happened because she has a real, real role on
this show, and so it was good. I mean, listen,
is this show itself starting to jump the shark? Maybe?
And it's not a spoiler because immediately when the show starts,
it tells you this, but now that Kevin Costner is
the governor, it's a little weird, but we'll leave it.
We'll believe that where it is. Thank you, thank you,
(08:52):
thank you. That's what's up. I don't think that's a
spoiler right now, because they said I've already read about that. Yeah,
I don't watch it. It's in all of the links
that come up where they don't spoil stuff. That's how
the show starts. It's not a spoiler. Okay, but yeah, okay, good, there,
there you go. That's what's happening. Glad you guys are here.
Let's open up the mailbag something ye, Hello, Bobby Bones,
(09:20):
my seventeen year old son had his driver's license for
about a year and it's been a constant headache. He
was involved in a fender bender about three months in Gladly,
everybody was okay and the damage was minimal. He also
lost his keyfob. We had to pay three hundred bucks
to get a new one. Now I got a ticket
for speeding. My husband wants to punish him by making
him work to earn to pay off the ticket, but
I don't think that's enough. We did the same when
(09:41):
he lost the key fob, and that didn't get through
to him. I was inspired by Eddie's unique parenting methods
and want to teach my son a lesson by making
him walk to and from school for an entire week.
I like it. You live about three and a half
miles from school, so I take him about an hour
each way. Oh, he's seventeen. Here's the thing, Yes, what'd
(10:04):
be cruel to make him walk to school for a week.
I'm open to you and other parents and your suggestions.
I just need help sign mom who doesn't want to
end up on the news. There's that Eddie. What we're
gonna say? These unique little parenting things The only goal
I'm going for in. This is for them to do
something that they will remember forever. Like I messed up,
(10:27):
but I remember my mom my dad made me walk
to school. Yes, a long walk sounds crazy, but he'll
remember it and then he'll learn from it. And that's
the whole point. You don't have to do it forever. Dude,
one week. Trust me, he's gonna definitely take care of
his key fob. He's gonna watch how he's driving. I
think it's gonna be effective. Your pro her technique. I
love her idea. Okay, here's the thing. He's seventeen. One
(10:48):
of his friends gonna pick him up. Yes, I'm thinking
go around the corner. Call your friend. He's not gonna
walk it. That's fine though, No, but but you send
the message that I'm serious. But it's not fine because
it's trying to pick up. They'll get a good la.
He'll learn nothing from it. Okay, I guess we follow
him if you make the deal that he has to
walk it the entire way and he does find my
iPhone while he's doing it, and you can track it
(11:10):
the whole time. There you go. Now you're thinking bones
full week. Well, I'm not agreeing that that's the right thing.
I'm saying. If they do this, you got to make
sure because you don't want to. Then you're punishing yourself too. Yeah.
What I would do is I would say, look, the
ticket was two hundred bucks. Ye have five days here.
Every day that you walk, it's fifty bucks off the ticket,
(11:30):
or sixty bucks off the ticket wherever get you there.
You want to watch school the whole day, sixty bucks.
Otherwise you pay it yourself. But he doesn't have the money,
so he'll have to get a job, or he'll walk
it every day, okay, or he'll get the money somehow.
Is buddy sad. It's gonna pick him up. But I
think it's fine if he pays his own ticket, right,
that's what you're learning. Yeah, but to walk it off,
(11:50):
it's sixty bucks a day. But if you do all
five days, I mean that's it. That's three, that's six
times five. Yeah, yeah, that'll work. The thing is they're
coming from like, hey, man, you're you're not driving right,
you're losing your key fob, Like as a driver, you're
doing really bad, and now you have a ticket. So
it's not only paying off the ticket, it's all of it. Dude,
you're gonna lose you're driving privileges. List the things you've
(12:11):
done to your kids. Huh, what do you mean? Well,
you stuck one kid in the bathroom, made him listen
to the song Man in the Mirror by Michael Jackson. Yes,
because if you want to make a change, it all
starts with the Man in the Mirror. That's right. How
long I don't remember. Maybe he played the song twenty
twenty times, being a little short, and then he was like,
I get it. I don't think he's ever listened to
the song again, but he understood what I was saying.
(12:31):
And then another one is uh, one of them had
bad grades in school. So I made him eat Blogny
sandwiches for Yeah, it was only for about a week,
maybe every maybe two weeks, every meal, But that was
to show that if you don't work hard, you're not
gonna get because he likes food. So if you don't
work hard, you're not gonna get what you want. You're
gonna get the fine right foods. They're gonna have to
settle with Belogny Sandwi're gonna get Sonic correct, which he
(12:54):
loves Sonic. Who doesn't I get it to the mom
who wrote the scene. I think it's a fine idea.
You know your kid. I think letting him pay it
is acceptable because that's what real life is. But if
he doesn't have it and he wants to work it off,
I think making him walk to school is hilarious, especially
because it's not half a mile, it's three and a
half miles. But you're right, and I'm tracking on iPhone
(13:17):
and i'd make him send check in videos nice and
I'm cool with it. Yeah, I knew you would be
there with it. I'm cool anything that makes the kids,
anything that gets them ready for life, that's right. You
want to give him scenarios to get him ready for life.
There you go, all right, Well that's it. I feel
good about it. Let's close the mailbag. Then we've got
(13:37):
your And I want to talk about animals for a
second with Brian Swanson who he will go and he
will remove animals from your house and he frees them
and it's a humane way. He doesn't kill them. He
was on an episode of Breaking Bobby Bones with me.
You go to Animals Removed dot com and see more
(13:59):
about him. But I do. If it's okay, Brian, I'd
like to talk about bears. First, do you know, do
you have any experience with bears at all? Just that
one it ended up being just a teddy bear with
the batteries dying. But other than that, not too much.
We talk a lot about bears on the show, but
we've never actually been attacked by a bear. But what
do you think you should do if a bear comes
(14:20):
up to you? What would you do? Would you run
away or would you be still and get big? Well,
first off, I'd probably not put myself in a situation
where I'd be in front of a bear. But if
if I did happen to come across one, you don't
want to turn your back to it. You kind of
make yourself look big. But again, don't don't pick it
off in the same sense, you know, yell at it
(14:41):
and antagonize it. Yeah, but my first thing to do
would be to make fun of it and then show
up my back and run away. Make yeah, and then
I take all running. What about snakes? If we run
into a snake and there's a snake I don't know,
a foot in front of us and it's ready to
what do we do? Probably walk around it? At most
of the snakes here we have aren't gonna come after you,
(15:02):
So you just don't step on it. Should I show
up my back and antagonize a snake, Yeah, don't don't
poke at it with a stick or anything like that. Yeah,
it'll be fine. As the weather it gets cold or what.
Animals tend to start infiltrating our houses. Ah, yes, right now,
squirrels get an addict. Gunks are getting into the crawl spaces. Raccoons,
(15:24):
We'll get into both possums. We'll get into your attict
and crawl space. So yeah, as it gets colder, they're
all looking for that shelter and our homes are nice
for it. Yeah. And right now we're dealing with foxes
in my backyard, which I've been chronicling, and there were
like five or six of them, and so Brian as
team put cameras back there to see the animals. Now,
(15:46):
I don't live in a really rural area. Some people
are like, well, if you live in the woods, that's
what you get. No, I don't live in the woods,
and there are cameras to catch the foxes. Except these cameras.
I've seen other animals in my backyard. Brian, what are
these animals they've seen your properties, got armadillos, We've seen
raccoons back there, possums. Um, we have not in the
(16:08):
fox and there's a good reason for that. Uh, you
probably did have foxes, obviously you've seen them. But our
cameras have caught coyotes and bobcats as well in my yard.
How do coyotes and bobcats get in my yard? Well, Um,
there's quite a few digging areas underneath your fence and
(16:32):
then your gates pretty it's not like a solid gate,
so they can just get through it. But how are
the coyotes anywhere near? I mean I don't because I
live near a road, a big road. There are cars,
there are there's a school. There's our coyotes just hanging
around in people's yards or were they there because of
all the other animals. Coyotes actually eat fox, So you
(16:53):
don't have a fox problem anymore. I can guarantee that
now we have a coyote problem. Boxes. Hey, that's a baby.
We didn't do that. The coyotes got them. Yep, yeah,
they they will either if if they know the coyotes
around them, just leave U and they will not come
back for sure. And U or the fu or the
(17:15):
kyotes already got them. But what about Okay, what about me?
I'm let's talking. Let's talking about me for a second.
What if I'm in the backyard at night and or
in the morning because we wake up really early. Any
chance I get attacked by a bob coat of coyotes
or my dogs? Your dogs more likely? Yeah, not really.
You they'll probably be you know, run off, say here,
you're coming. But if your dog goes after them, then
(17:36):
then that could be an issue. So what do I do?
What do we do? Well, um, we can. You know,
you've got a pretty big sense. So there is a
there is a way to keep them out. One of
them involved in getting you a new gate. We'd either
have to reconstruct your gate to where it won't allow
(17:57):
animals to come in out, or get to a gate
all together. Yeah sounds expensive. I'll pass coyotes. Welcome to
the family, Welcome home. Yeah, welcome to the family. Coyotes. Hey, okay,
but we don't have foxes anymore. That's that's that was
the whole goal with getting Brian, and it worked. Now
apparently we have leopards and cheetahs and you can people
can come through apparently take the Safari tour and drive through.
(18:18):
Is this stuff only at night? By the way, do
you have to worry about this in the daytime. Most
of those animals we talked about are nocturnel so yeah,
only at night. Okay, here's the deal with, Brian. If
you're hearing noise in the attic cross space, they do
free inspections to determine what it is and what damage
they've caused. They'll also figure out how they're getting in.
They come up with a solution to keep them out.
And you know that's Brian animals Removed dot com where
(18:40):
you know what the goal was to get to foxes
and make them. Well, now they are made, they're gone. Yeah,
to cure of that, they're gone. They could have just
left on the room. Oh yeah, maybe they saw the
coyote and they're like we out. You used the video
and there's two coyotes right near the camera, just chilling,
just leading out. And they're not baby coyotes either. They
look like they killed a few things, maybe maybe a
(19:02):
few human humans. All right, Hey, Brian, I appreciate it.
Thank you for all your help. And if you know,
if what would eat the kyotes, what would make them
go away. What's the next level up with an animal
that will come and kill them? That would be humans.
That would be a pretty cars. Cars. Yeah, let's drive
around the yard. Okay, got it? All right, Brian, Hey,
(19:23):
hope you have an awesome day. Thank you for all
your help, and everybody go check out animals removed dot Com.
Bye Bryan, all right, thanks guys, bye bye. Here we
go kyotes and bobcats. But you know what, I don't
have Fox. That was the goal. All right, it's time
for the good news. There's a tradition in Major League Baseball.
(19:44):
Whoever won the World Series last year the new World
Series champ, they get pizzas sent to their front office
by the former champions. So this year, the Astros won
the World Series and the Braves were the defending champs.
So they got a line found a local pizza shop
in Houston and it was Frank's Pizza in downtown Houston,
and they ordered a bunch of pizzas and send them
(20:05):
to the Astros and said congratulations. It's a way to
support local business and to say, hey, you're the champ.
Now what it's the guy at the local Oh, Frank
was high Way is this. It's wealthy braves and you
want me to deliver them to the astros. There's some frank,
you know, a little bit be like, nah, come on,
it's real. Yeah, it's cool. I like it. They go
(20:25):
to local businesses too. Yeah. Yeah, they don't just do
a national chain. It's like they find a local shop
close to the ballpark and say, let's give you some business.
That's what it's all about, right there. That was tell
me something good. So Bobby Bones Show Interviews in case

because there's something you know that I feel like, you know,
she's really stepper her game up. Man, when it comes
to just overall, just like entertainment from I feel like
(22:32):
entertainment is just doing a bunch of things to keep
the crowds attention, what I'm saying, getting their money's worth.
So I'm like, not maybe I'm biased. I'm on tours
there right now. But not only is she like just

can't say that. I'm gonna bleep out who you said.
I'm gonna bleep that out because I ain't having that on.
But that's hilarious, Okay, I ain't gonna I ain't gonna
have you thought yourself under the bus like that? So
I'm gonna protect you there. Um, let me say this.
(24:42):
I saw you on The Connors, which is which it was, Roseanne.
Then it's the Connors. You're acting, so you wanted to
act more? How was that experience for you? It was great?
I loved it. I'm I'm actually carving time out away
from touring next year to do more television. I love
it TV and film, and they're all equally as important,
(25:02):
Like music doesn't trump either one of them, you know
what I mean, Like they're all equally important. So I'm
at the place in my career where, you know, I've
been blessed to having a few opportunities to jump into
the acting world a little bit more, whether it's hosting,
whether it's a sitcom, a couple of movie opportunities. So
I'm about to do it. Like life's all about being happy,
(25:23):
and I'm gonna keep making me it the whole time.
But I'm gonna probably take a little break from touring
for a few months and jump at this TV film.
What are you doing for the holidays, Jimmy, I honestly
have no idea, Like we don't, we don't really make plans.
You know, me and my family were kind of just like,

(25:44):
or California, or stay in Nashville. It's kind of just
a you know, whatever we feel like doing without the
pressure of my side of family or her side of
family saying we need to do this now, we need
to do whatever we want to do. So we're just
kind of just waiting until the day of or the
day before and is making a disease. Well, what you

bad run there, John, We got a little cockulang. Here's
(34:19):
a voicemail from Scott in Ohio. How do you make
money on TikTok? I'm an old man. Could you explain
that to us later? Thank you love the show, and
that's showing the country than explaining to you. Now, Well,
TikTok you don't really make any money per se by
doing the tiktoks. You make a little bit and that
a little fund. You could be doing millions streams views,
but you don't make a lot of money in that.
(34:40):
Where you can make money selling ads. Where you can
make money is if you're making music sending people to
stream your music. You can make money being popular and
people subscribe to your Instagram or YouTube. There's a lot
of ways to make money on TikTok except on Tiktokay
anything he doesn't TikTok is a good payer, but it
(35:00):
is a great creator of other ways to make money.
I did that fund for a little bit. I was like, yeah,
I'll opt in. Had videos like three, four five, had
one went six million. I mean like a dollar nineteen.
This is not a way to make money. And when
you open it's got confetti, it's his congratulations. You made
a dollar fifteen. Se I was so excited to go
(35:21):
look at because a video went to six million. I
was like, I got to be rich, and so I
went yeah, dollar dollar seventeen something like that. So that's
what it is. TikTok is a way for you to
grow a following and then use that to make money.
You can do ads too, just like you can do
ads anywhere else. The real money and content creation is
in YouTube. That's where most people can make a lot
(35:43):
of money. Mister Beast, they offered him in one billion
dollars for his biggest channel. He said no, what he
said no? Then they did the math on it, they
brought it again. He's like, yeah, wouldn't sell it either
for one billion? Wow, one billion dollars billion dollars from
YouTube And he said, no you didn' I don't think
you would have done that anyway. Short, I think you
made a good choice. Yeah, yeah, here's Bradley from Tacoma,
(36:05):
because you still could have done that even here. Yeah,
but I didn't know you can make that much money
on YouTube. Ye have, but no idea. But he probably
didn't either when he started head he knew no because
he wasn't No Bradley an Tacoma, Washington. Here's a voicemail
Marty Studio. Listen, I just made up a morning Corny.
What do you call a pessimistic antelope? A cantelope? Yeah,
(36:33):
you love that. You're a Amy's pile of stories. People
are more impatient than ever. New research says that half
of all customers will not wait more than three minutes
without being helped. Three minutes and they're out. And speed
is just, if not more important than price. That's a
(36:54):
long time. It is three minutes. Yeah, because you don't
assume everybody needs help. But what's weird is sometimes they
can't find enough people to work at a store and
you're like, hey, can I get some help here, and
there's nobody working or everybody because there's not a lot
of folks. They're all working in the register and there
is no one. And it's not that there are lazy people.
Well it is lazy people you don't want to work,
(37:16):
but it's not lazy people there that day. There just
aren't enough people they're working. But three minutes is a
long time. Now, on the flip side of that, if
I go onto a clothing store and I'm looking at
something and they just aren't laying closed on my shoulder.
Put this on and try this on? Hell you want
this one? Like, whoa, that's too much? Help get to
find the line. Yeah, you walk in, you look at
if they just go hey, if you need anything, let
(37:37):
me know. I'll be right here. That's why I like
And then if I do need something, I'll let them know.
I don't need You're good, Yeah, I'm good. Okay, how
about now you're good? Yeah? No, no, I'm good. Can
I get your water? I'm not drinking water? Shopping here? Yeah,
we were closed? Oh yes. It is a very fine line.
Gen Z is likely to feel respected when a brand
responds quickly, so it's like, oh, yeah, they see me.
(37:59):
I feel good about this. It could be on the
phone too, like if you have to wait time or
like even on social media for a brand response. You
know what, I don't trust Yeah, leave, leave and we'll
call you back. Oh oh no, way about seventy five
percent of the time it works. I don't trust it
every time. Yeah, it's not worth it to me. I've
got a hundred. I'll get on Southwest and most of
the time they call me back. I say they're a
(38:20):
good one. But some of the other ones. They don't
forget about me, and then I forget too that I
was even on the phone with them. And then like
two days later, I'm like, I'm still expecting a call
from the Buckle, and then there it is. They don't.
I'm gonna start over. What's the worst. I don't know
if this happens to you, but when you're dealing with
a really complicated call for a long time and then
suddenly the salesperson or whoever it is the person working
(38:40):
disconnects from you. That happens too. When they don't understand,
they just hang up exactly. They act like it was
a technical thing, but they straight up hang up on me.
I know it. That happened to be with my cable company.
I'm for sure of it. Yeah. I was like, I
can't get this to connect. Well have you tried? Forget?
And then they just blame it on my connection, so
dumb else. Researchs are testing a new birth control option
(39:02):
for men, described as a temporary vasectomy. That's what you do.
Here's the birth control for men. You put them a
room with eight babies. Oh, for twenty four hours? All right,
these are your baby, eight of them for twenty four hours. Go,
you want these for the rest of your life. So
what this involves is injecting gel directly into the area,
(39:24):
and they say it could prevent pregnancy for up to
two years. So it's temporary. You're not having to get
the you know, full vasectomy, even though the seconds are
reversible anyway. But this is just a gel. So anyway,
they're they're testing it out. We'll see what happened. I
don't even like, you know, some people don't like to
hear this show talking about gross stuff in the morning
because they're like, I mean breakfast. I don't like to
hear that. Ever, because I I'm alive, I don't like
(39:46):
to think about I don't like to hear that. That's
that same feeling. I'm like, I don't want to hear
that now, Okay, what else? All right? So Riley Green,
there was this girl. He's going to be on tour
next year with Luke Combs, and he was talking to
People magazine about how he's dating Luke's day to day
manager and they've been together for a year, and he
told People Magazine quote, I've got a lot of ex
(40:08):
girlfriends who'd be blown away by that number. I just
thought that, Yeah, No, I don't know that I ever
talking about a lot of ex girlfriends when I have
a current. Maybe when I'm not with a current. Interesting, Yeah,
they'd all be shocked. I've been committed for a year.
I maybe that's my pile. That was Amy's pile of stories.
It's time for the good news. Hi. Devon who goes
(40:34):
by at Debon nine seventy three, on TikTok, posted a
video of this older lady who works at Walmart. Now,
she's a greeter there, and he was talking to her
and she was like, hey, look, I'm not gonna be
able to really quit here until I get my house
paid for because she has to still pay her mortgage.
And so he said, okay, well let let's help you
with that now. Again, Devin's just throwing this out there,
and he set up a go fund me and he said, hey,
(40:56):
we want to help her get closer to retiring. The
initial crowdfunding campaign was for ten thousand dollars, which even
he thought was a bit much and he didn't know
if they would get to it, but why not try.
But unless than twenty four hours, they raised over one
hundred thousand dollars, so an optimistic campaign where he's like, I
I don't know if we're gonna do this, but let's try.
It turned into oh, one of those where you have
(41:17):
to turn up the ten thousand, where you keep turning
it up. So a week later, go fund me had
surpassed over one hundred and seventy thousand dollars and it
was enough for her to be able to pay off
her mortgage and retire. That's amazing. He changed her life
by doing He just he straight up changed her life.
That is a great story at Debon nine seventy three
underscore on TikTok. That's a great story. Good job by you.
(41:37):
That's what it's all about. That was tell me something good.
