Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Welcome to Wednesday's show More in Studio morning standing next
to somebody yesterday and that pretty bad bo and it
just existed right. It was kind of like, this is
gonna be a dated reference, but I'm Charlie Brown. There
was a guy named Pigpen. You could see that the
dirt like around him. That's kind of what this. And

(00:31):
I know the person. I liked the person. They had
no idea that they smelled this bad. And I don't
look at them and judge them, but I wonder then
when I think about me, like is that ever happening?
And no one's telling me, like do you ever just
smell so bad? And and then someone leaves and goes
and I'm like, man, do you guys smell Bobby? Like?
That's one of my biggest fears. I don't mind if
it's musty like I've been working out, that is what

(00:53):
it is. A matter of fact, I don't think I
put on DEO on this morning. I think I rolled
out of bed, rushed in here. And but if I'm
like somewhere and it's thick, I don't want to know then,
But I just want to know. I don't know. Maybe
I don't want to ever know. Maybe if you can
never tell me, that's fine, but I never want to

(01:15):
find out. But I just wonder if he knew or
where he came from, because it was it was just
it was really really strong, and it wasn't on purpose.
Like we've met, Matthew McConaughey, Eddie and I have a
couple of times very stinky, very stinky. It's not that
he wants to stink. It's just he isn't gonna do
anything to keep him from stinking if he's stinking. But

(01:37):
it was the whole situation yesterday, So there was that.
Um So if you're ever going to tell me, make
sure that at some point I would have known anyway. Okay,
got it. Yeah, Because if you can get away with
not telling me, I never find out, that's all good too.
It's one of the two ways. Matthew and Virginia Beach.
You're on the show, What's up, Matthew? Or what's the
most daught heet y'all have ever had? Like Cilla bunny

(02:01):
fat and stuff like that is a bunny exotic. I mean,
we had bunnies this kid. They never lasted that long.
I had a couple hairless rats and they got stuck
in the walls for a while, finally got most of
them out, gave them to a couple of listeners. Really, yeah,
did you buy at the store, like at the fet store.
Huh huh? And they were pretty cool. I just were though.

(02:21):
They're pretty cool. Yeah. I had a couple of hairless rats.
My great aunt had a monkey nice and it used
to poop in its It got old and used to
poop in its hand a thrown to people and then bites.
That was the weirdest saying of the monkey got Oh. Yeah, man,
I felt bad for that monkey as I got older.
But other than that, I don't think I ever really

(02:42):
had a crazy pet. You. I had hamsters, and then
I used to catch lizards and I had a little
lizard cage I'd keep them in. But then yeah, I'm free.
That's just a kid, chameleon kid in America, you know. Yeah, Eddie,
I had a ferret for ten years. I loved her name.
Her name was Stimpy. So what's up with the ferret? So?
I mean it lives like a cat. It poops in

(03:03):
a litter box, and it's got like a little gerbil
water feeder thing, and does it run free? Yeah? I
would let it run in my room. That was the rule.
I couldn't let it run around the house, but I
would carry it around, like if I went to the
mall or something. I was carried around on my shoulder.
He would just hold out on my shoulder. Let's walk around.
He wouldn't jump off, almost like a Pirate's notty cool,
pretty awesome. I have a bulldog. I don't know, that's
pretty exotic when it comes to having to pay vet bills.

(03:23):
I'm being honest with you, lunch box. Any crazy pats.
My sister had Gerbils started out with four, and I
don't know if you know anything about gerbils, but they
multiplied like grum ones, and we had about twenty of them. Oh, yes,
that's a lot of gerbles, Matthew. Why do you ask
about exotic pets everything? Like two or three weeks ago,

(03:44):
I got two chinchillas, and then tomorrow I get two
bunnies from my aunt, and then I already have two dogs.
That's a lot of animals. Yeah, two with the house,
so I somehow, Yeah, I hear you, buddy. I had
when I was early twenties, one of the girls that

(04:04):
I dated had snakes, and then she would leave and
go on vacation, and I'd have to keep snakes and
feed the snakes. I'd have to go to the pet
store and get little little mice, and then you feed
the snake thet the mice. And then I just couldn't
do it anymore. My heart wouldn't let me feed it
a live mouse. So then I would go get frozen
my then rosen mice. H yeah, but then then I
had to realize that somebody had to freeze them. But

(04:26):
then I had the thing where, well, somebody had to
kill the cow that hamburger you read as a whole
life growth journey, I went on. But well, Matthew, good
luck with that morning. On my way to work, Thank you, man.
Have a good day you too, all right, bye bye hey.
Speaking of stinking, here's this I just handed this. Do
you know if you too much red meat, it can
make smell like rotten eggs. Oh, if you eat a

(04:48):
lot of red meat, your body will produce a natural
rotten egg type smell like the sulfur or whatever it says.
Too much meat, especially red, can lead to a sulfurous
odor which smells like rotten a boy, sulfur. Yeah, that's
what I maybe had too many stakes that day when
I saw a lot of steaks. Yeah, yeah, yeah. On
the phone right now, Johnny in Fresno, California, Johnny, good morning,

(05:12):
what's going on? I turned say, I just got sure
signed autograph and I can't wait to put it in
the book for your children's book, Oh yeah, coming out
in the fourteen Stanley the Dog and his first Day
at School. And so what I did is instead of
signing a page and then the book company just put
it on the book for all the pre orders, with
a special piece of art made that you can put
in the book itself. And so I'm pretty excited. You

(05:34):
have a kid, Johnny, Are you sure? I just had
my daughter two weeks ago, So that's why I'm pretty excited.
Tweeted to it. Wow, how is it being a two
week old dad? Honestly, it's pretty tiring. But I just
wanted to let my wife know that, you know, I
appreciate it because he's the one who wakes up at
night peaches the baby because I go to work. You say,
pretty tiring, but your wife's waking up? What parts tiring?

(05:57):
If you're not waking up the middle of the night. Well,
I can't get the bottles ready sometimes, you know. Yeah,
so she kind of goes through a couple of bottles
every two hours, so I kind of get up and
then like problem and then just go back to sleep.
But you do get up in the middle of the night,
then yeah, but not too long. You give himself credit,

(06:18):
and then he texted away and then he goes, hey, Johnny,
I appreciate that, and I hope you enjoy the book.
And congratulations I'll being a new dad. Yeah, thank you.
Can I shout her out? Yeah, go ahead, buddy. Her
name is Raylan. It's named after the country artist. That's
kind of the main reason the baby is named after
the artist Raylan. Yes, and why did you name it
after Raylan? The artist? What about her has motivated you

(06:39):
to do that? My brother in law and sisters seeing
her perform out in Baker Soil like a few years ago,
and then we're kind up with names, and then they
mentioned that name to her saying that they've seen her
like up close. So I was like, you know, I
love that name and it's unique. So so it was
more about the name, the name and how cool it

(07:00):
was more than who she is. Well, I mean, she's awesome. Joe,
there's a great music. Here's a by Johnny gives credit,
take it away, give credit, takes it away. Now you
see it? Now you don't, all right, Johnny. Hey, congratulations, buddy.
Appreciate your calling, and hopefully one day we'll get out
there I get to meet you. Yeah, I would do.
Thank you, all right, buddy, see you later. Get something

(07:26):
we call Hello, Bobby Bones. I've been dating my boyfriend
for five years now, and we just recently moved in
together over a year ago. I'm twenty five, he's twenty six.
We always talking about getting married and having kids, to
the point where I feel like we're already a married couple.
All our friends around us have started their families and
or are getting married soon. When I bring up our

(07:47):
future or getting married, he immediately gets annoyed and explains
that this conversation pushes the proposal back. Okay, okay. He
always assures me that it's coming, but he's just waiting
for the right time. I don't want to be that
nagging girlfriend or it's not like I'm begging this out
of him, But there have been tons of perfect opportunities.
But at the same time, if you really love me?

(08:08):
Why is he waiting so long? I cannot help but
being secure about this. I don't like bringing it up
because I don't want to make him feel forced, and
I do want to feel extra special when the time comes.
I guess my question is how long is too long
to be waiting for him to take the next step
in our relationship? Sincerely, desperate Danielle. Okay, So this is
what I'm going to say, at least for the time being.

(08:31):
I think you need to pump the brakes on talking
about it for about six months and not even don't
even tell him that you're pumping the brakes because he
may actually have something planned or maybe in the middle
of planning something, and I don't think he should ever say, well,
you're pushing the polls back. That should not be said.
But if you're pushing it, he's like, oh, I just
want her to like not know it's coming. So my

(08:56):
humble advice is just pump the breaks on asking about
getting married for the next four to six months. I'm
going to take a wild gamble. I'm gonna put chips
down on the fact that I think he's going to
propose to you relatively soon. Why why do you think
that because they're living together, they've been together five years,
they're talking about it. If they were talking about it

(09:18):
and he was like, hey, I don't think we're there yet,
or I don't think then I would not think the same. Okay,
So he's thinking about it, he's trying to plan it.
Just give him a little space on this, and then
after whatever time you have set four to six months,
have your date in your head on your phone, then
you can ultimatum him after that, but give him some
space to let him do what he says he's doing,

(09:41):
which is planning the perfect moment. So let him try
to create that perfect moment. If that doesn't work, it's
ultimatum time. Now, Eddie, your wife set the ultimatum with you. Yeah,
we were engaged, would engage. We're dating for six years
and then she finally did the pooper get off the pot.
But I say I needed that because four of the
six years I had no idea. I was like, I

(10:02):
think she kind of likes this comfortable dating for six
years later and you guys didn't have these conversations Nope, right,
and then finally she's like, Hey, are you gonna ask
me to marry you, because I'm tired of waiting because
if you're not, I'm out. Do you think she really
would have been out? Yeah? She would, dude. I saw
the look in her eyes. She was serious. Ray, did
you get ultimatumed? I did, and I was told in

(10:22):
June you need to propose, and then June passed, and
another June came around, and that one passed two. But
I think it's six years. It was really with our families.
I was just starting to annoy a ton of people,
and I was like, all right, I'm I need to
actually just go ahead and propose, because I did love Bezer,
so it's more romantic than I just need to go ahead.
You know that that should be a commercial like for
Zales or something. You know, when nothing's okay, Ray, what

(10:44):
is your advice then? To her? My advice, six years
is a limit, so once it gets there, something's got
to happen. I feel you're fine there up until six Listen, Danielle,
nothing's gonna change in six months anyway, meaning you're not
gonna break up, you're not gonna get married like drastic
to drastic. Nothing's gonna happen in the six months. So
just pull back, let him do his thing, and then
if he doesn't do his thing, then you do your thing,

(11:06):
which is, hey, buddy, we've been together. I'm giving you
this ultimatum. The end. We've got your g that was
abound to clothed. Bobby Mail back on the Bobby Bones Show. Now,
Alicia Silverstone, Alicia, how are you good? How are you?
A couple things? Here? Your podcast a real hill podcast.

(11:28):
So what do you eat generally for you to stay
healthy and for you to heal? Yeah? I stopped eating meat, dairy, sugar.
Well first it was just meat and dairy and that
did everything to begin with. But then I started to
understand even more about health and how I could start
eating less sugar and less processed foods and really eat

(11:51):
whole grains. I do a lot of relying on tums
and aspirin and red bull. I assume red bulls not
really on the list of things I should probably be
crushing daily exactly. So that might be working for you
right now, but I don't give you a couple more years,
You're gonna have some problems. I'm twenty two, but yeah,
I'm just I look a lot older because all that

(12:11):
red bull and Tom's probably just guessing you're not really
twenty two? Are you? No? God? No, God, I'm like,
say it, face, you're so far away, you're at a
big test. Yeah, just trust me. It's a beautiful, young
looking face. It looks twenty two. Well let me let
me say this. The podcast is called the Real Hill Podcast. Yeah.
I do want to talk about the movie too, because
I love apocalyptic movies. Those are my favorite kind of

(12:34):
movies where I wonder, like, after the apocalypse happened, could
I survive? That? To me is if it's a TV
series or a movie like that? Is that is my
genre of movie? As Lunchbox would say here on the show.
And so the Last Survivor is that it's in that world.
Do you think after shooting this movie that you would
be someone? Because when you talk about how you eat
and all the plants, I feel like you'd be pretty
good at this already. How would I survive? I have

(12:57):
no idea? Yeah, would you? I mean after doing the movie,
are you like, man, I can act? We do this?
Or are you like nah, I'm good? I like internet
and running water. Living off the grid is very pleasurable
for me. When energy when the power goes out and
everyone can't use it. It makes me very happy. So yeah,
I do. I think I'd be okay all those things,
living off the grid and managing like that. But our

(13:18):
movie Last Survivors is really interesting and the relationships are
really interesting. And my character has left her children to
go live in the woods, you know, and this farm,
and I don't think I could do that. I wouldn't
leave my baby, Okay, So I want to do this
if you're cool with it. I have a few general
questions that I would like to ask you about your

(13:38):
career and it'll be very quick. Are you game? One
of fun thing I want to tell you before you
do that is that I can't believe that this little movie,
Last Survivors, that we made on a shoestring budget, has
been number one on Hulu for it was on a
number one on Hulu for like an entire week. And
at the same time senior year, this fun movie for

(14:00):
Netflix was number one on Netflix. So I had two
number one movies at the same time. Yeah. The other
movie on Netflix is that with Rebel Wilson. I'm just
going from memory here. Yes, she's so funny. What is
it like to be? Yeah? Like if you're with somebody
who's just hilarious, or are people that we see that
we think all they're hilarious in movies, they're really not
the hilarious not on the movie, Like what is that dynamic? Like, Well,

(14:22):
Rebel's just a really clever woman and she's so when
I when we weren't shooting, we were just sitting there chatting,
and she was a very deep, serious person. So yeah,
I don't think she's walking around just joking around all
the time. She's very She's got a lot of thoughtful
things going on in her mind. I think she's studied

(14:43):
to be a lawyer. At I think she was almost
a lawyer. Um. So anyway, I had a really good
time with her. I just have a little cameo in
the movie, but I loved it. Made me laugh so hard.
This film, it's so fun. Right here here my final
few questions for you. Do you know I'm gonna you
can just say no, we like, that's a stupid question.
Do you know your first acting credit list? About IMDb?

(15:03):
Because I did like the research obviously, but I went like,
super generic. Do you know the first thing they list
you is acting in Nick and Me? It's The Wonder
Years in nineteen ninety two, and I've seen every episode.
I do not remember you on the show. Do you
have a memory of filming that show? I mean ninety two,
the one I'm sure you've done so much. I don't
remember half the crap I've done last month. I wonder
if you remember a random Wonder Years episode from ninety two.

(15:26):
Remember still, I do remember being in the hallway where
I shot that, and with Fred Kevin on the show.
I think, right's yeah, yeah, okay. I just wondered if
you knew that. That's number one. Number two. My number
two question is so in I guess I was in
high school Batman Batgirl? In Batman, you're a batgirl and Batman.

(15:46):
But that suit, that suit looks like it's super hard
to move around and live in, especially if you ye so,
how hard is it to actually have to function in
a suit that seems like it's wrapped around your entire
body for twelve hours at a time. It sucked. We
had to put I think we had to put butt
either baby powder all over ourselves or these stockings underneath.
I don't remember. But the whole thing was so such

(16:09):
an ordeal. And when you had to pee. It was
such a pain in the butt to get the thing off.
It was so epic and yeah, not fun suit. I'm
sure they've improved on the suits since. And my final
question is I you speak French fluently from what I understand,
and I have a French miner now with my French miner,
I know like six things and that's all. But I

(16:32):
would like to run a few of those six things
by you if you are fluent in French. I am
not fluid in French. I have no idea where you were.
Let's try anyway, because I either. So let's see what
happens here. All right, here we go, h bonjeur, Alicia
bone Bobby. She's already better than I am. She said,
this fact is made up on the internet. Fatigue. How

(16:53):
about this? How about this? Is that? How are you?
I don't know. I just remember saying it over and
over again, but I don't remember or oar of wa.
All I've got is a kiss kiss pass. Yeah, we're
about the same. She didn't speak confluently, guys, I just
checked it out. Um, okay, here's what I want to say.
And you have just been a delight to talk with

(17:13):
and thank you, and so the two things I want
you to check out the Real Hill podcast. All the
episodes are out there. Episode eleven came out on the
twenty sixth, so it's out. They're all out now, Wow,
they just all came out, So check them out. And
then check out Last Survivors on Hulu, which is really great.
The look in the field the movie far surpasses the
money they spent on it, and that is a testament
to how great a job you guys did. So Alicia,

(17:35):
thank you for your time. If you could zoom in
one more time in my face, I want to leave
it with this Eddie your zoom Yeah, check it out.
You're so okay, yeah, thank you? All right, there she
is Alicia Sail. We're starting everybody out by Elsia. Yeah.
This guy walked into a Burger King and it was
completely empty, meaning was unlocked, and he got in there
and there's no one in there, hello, nothing, So how

(17:56):
does that even happen? Well, one person showed up, other
people didn't, and that one person was like, I I don't
evenna working here. He quit. Oh, so then nobody's working
there in the door is unlocked. Okay, what is happening?
So obviously been a lot of staffing shortages. I mean,
my sister, who manages a restaurant was she was like,
we can't get anybody to work, but for a Burger King,
not a shortage and outage of people outage. And so

(18:18):
this guy walks in in Pittsburgh and nobody was there.
He then went to the drive through, walked into all
of it completely empty. And I wonder if that were
the case. I mean, I would think somebody was in
the bathroom or something, all right, because I wouldn't. I
would just think somebody is somewhere, maybe hello, into the bathroom. Nothing.
Then you just get a burger yourself. No, I don't
know if you're hungry and it's all there and there's

(18:40):
some made back there by any chance. But here you go.
Here's a clip. This is the moment that the would
be customer walked in shut up to this Burger King
on Noblestown Road and there is nobody in here. Nobody
in here. I went to drive through nothing anybody here? Hello,
as wild you have to go walk back to the cache.
Imagine you're the owner or whoever runs that Burger King

(19:02):
and you see this video and you're like, oh, dude,
that's my store. Well, the person eventually found out and
went up and just ran it until they could get
other people up there. So I went back in business.
But that would be super cool. That was like would
be like getting locked in like a Walmart or something overnight.
You get to see things you probably shouldn't see as
a normal person. There was a story about Shack and
he was talking about to go orders and tipping and

(19:24):
Lunchbox has this weird beef with Shack that Shack doesn't
know that you have a feud with him, right, but
you do have a few tois. I do have a
feud with him. He does a lot of things for show.
He's so annoying. He just happens to be somewhere when
everybody needs something. So Shack was interviewed by Bleacher Report
and they asked him, Hey, when you're out in public
and you're not being shocked the celebrity, you're like a
normal dude, Like what do you do? Here's this clip

(19:46):
when I go to McDonald's or order foods and the
kids bring I'll get him a two hundred dollar tip.
I'm not about to go in there and cook it
and do it. You're doing that for me. Appreciate your
big homie. Thank you. When I go to a restaurant
with my voice, they're amazed. I don't skip to lie
hey man, go to no man, let's kip of that, lady.
I can't do it because none of these people are
here make this work go around, not me, but but

(20:07):
but it's my job to entertain them and then when
they pay, that's how I get paid. So it's all
a certain ecosystem that could never be broken. Shack awesome
a way. Yeah, I love Imagine that you're cooking food
and Shack comes in he gives a two hundred dollars tip.
That's awesome. That's against that, dude. That's how you go broke.
That ain't how you go broke. If you have that
much money, If you're giving two hundred dollars when when
you go to McDonald's, that's how you go bro How

(20:28):
do you know how you go broke? You guys talking
about me, Oh, you're gonna be so you know, financially
irresponsible when you hit the watery. Now, this is your
beef with Shack Sally, That's what I'm saying. Like, and
you guys commend him for giving two hundred dollars every
time he goes somewhere to eat. That's how you go broke.
And then the fact that he doesn't skip the line.
He's an idiot. Shack is worth almost a half a

(20:49):
billion dollars. He's got two hundred dollars to him as
a penny. But every time he could tip a penny
every time you eat, you could could You're not you
couldn't tip a penny every time you eat it, eat
eat it, eat it. Yeah, yeah, I can't do it.
He's taking you with them. There's a shock. Seems awesome,
But also the cool thing is he said this and

(21:10):
now he has to do it every day. Yeah, somewhere done.
Tip hundred bucks? Like nah, heard that podcast? You need
to give me two hundred dollars your final thoughts, lunchbox.
I'm just saying, Shocks is gonna go broke. And I
don't not hear the comparison. Here's half a billion, that's
one cent to you and how much you make. You
know how quick half billion go? Like you don't know
how quick half a billion can go. And I'm gonna

(21:31):
I guarantee he skips a line. Okay, you guarantee it
because because that's what celebrities do, So you can't guarantee
it all right, Well I do, you don't either. Don't
let you. Sometimes it's time for the good news lunchbox.
A few weeks ago, Jada Sales finished her college degree

(21:52):
at Dillard College in New Orleans, finished all her credits.
Graduation day comes and she's like, oh, I think my
water and she has to be rushed to the hospital.
Graduation day. Graduation day, you know, got the cap and
gal laid out. She's ready to walk that stage. So
she can't be at graduation because she having a baby.
Good news, healthy baby boy, her first child. Well, the

(22:15):
president of the university found out about this after graduation.
He showed up at the hospital and presented her with
her diploma. Oh that's cool, man, Imagine that you're so pregnant.
It's timing out with your graduation. You're probably every day
leading up to it, Like, can you just waddle across
the stage and get it and then have your baby? Yeah?
Does this inspire you to go back and get yours? Nah?

(22:36):
What will? But you're only three hours short. I'm only
three hours one class short. Because I need something cool
to happen, like the news. What if the news said
they would cover you, they would do a story on
you going back to college. If they gave you that commitment,
maybe we make a reality show out of it. I'm like, oh,
got it. That's not even worth a Instagram live show.

(22:57):
Forty year old guy goes back to college. I joined
a frat at forty just for three hours? Yes, how
cool would that be to see my campus life for
a semester as a forty year old man father of three? Okay,
but you would have to go okay, but you'd have
to go hard, like I go hard if it's a

(23:18):
reality show. But yeah, but what's going hard? Oh? It's
going I mean I can't be the wall. What does
that mean? I don't know if I can say that.
You're just saying like you would just party hard. Yeah, yeah,
and I would just had to deal with the repercussions
at home, you know, like real world, you fight with
your roommates. Would your wife, like you have a camera
at home, though, probably she'd be on camera with you.

(23:38):
If I'm gonna be on a reality show, yeah, yeah,
all right, I'll pitch that. I like it. I don't
know if you're the funniest guy to do it. You
can't know you need though. It's somebody who's also single
and is also like love at the same time. Hardy fish.
Take this concept and use someone else. He's going to

(23:58):
be hard he be a creative leit money, I don't remember,
give me that money. Money's taught anyway. Let's shout her
out again. What's her name? Her name is Jada Sales.
And then let's shout you out again, lunchbox? What Dillard
College in New Orleans? So all right, we'll see if
we can get the show off the ground. All right,

(24:18):
I like it, all right, that's what it's all about.
That was tell me something good. This woman is eating
nothing but potato chips for twenty three years, that's all.
How do you live? How did your body produce enough
energy on just potato chips? A woman who lived on
a diet of cheese an onion flavor. You know her breath,

(24:39):
you know her body order. That can't be good aside
from no fuel. What does she smell like? But that's
all she's had for twenty three years, cheese an onion
flavored potato chips. What in the world? So she had
her first meal after being hypnotized she has only eaten
chips since she was a toddler twenty five years. Now

(25:00):
that's a parent thing. Then this is a parent didn't
give her food? Oh no, they probably did, but then
she refused clearly. And they're seven, you still make them
do it? Right? Yeah, I don't know. So she remembers
being at school and having a potato chip in her
lunch box and she was like, that was good. So
then that's all she ate. And so after undergoing two

(25:23):
two hour hypnotherapy sessions, she's been able to enjoy her
first taste of fruits and vegetables alongside other other fruits.
So there you go, twenty three years of only eating
potato chips. Man, I just can't food wouldn't be a joy.
Like I like food. I like to eat food because
I go I can't wait to eat it because this
steak is gonna taste good, or this chicken is gonna
taste good. Or I like nerds. This this water from

(25:46):
Sonic with nerds, and it's gonna taste good. But if
you only eat the same thing over and over again, nothing,
probably it's all the same. Right, It's like breathing air.
They do have a lot of different flavors. No, no no,
but she only has cheese. But if our and I'd
hit that barbecue. There's a picture of her. By the way,
she should have the biggest sponsorship deal with this brist
I mean she should make Jared Subway deal. That should

(26:09):
be nothing to the money she makes for Walkers cheese
and onion chips. Crazy. By the way, I hear the
lunchbox eats food out of the garbage in here. Have
you heard, lunchbox? You we seen eating food out of
garbage in this room? No, Amy, you put some food
in the trash. Yes, so it was in your office.
I threw away. I was doing some work in there,
and then I came back into the main studio to leave.
But on my way out, I passed back by your

(26:29):
office and I see Lunchbox pulling my food out of
the trash. I kept walking because I didn't even want to.
I didn't want to embarrass him. I didn't want to
know what was going on. Then I thought, well, I'll just,
you know, send it in a prep later and ask
why are you smiling so big? I mean I did
eat it all. Hold on, so why did you see though?
How did you know she put food in the trash
because I was walking in because I needed to use

(26:50):
your office for something, and she was getting done and
she had food and she put it in her bag
and throw in the trash. She was wrapping it all
up through in the trash. I was like, and there's
still like four bites left. Throw that away? And so
I pulled it out. What sounds like a salad. You
went into the garbage and had a salad that she
had already eating and thrown away. I listen, I would

(27:10):
have kept eating too, but I was in a hurry
and headed to a meeting and I couldn't take food
with me because it would just be sitting in my car.
So he's not wrong. There was still good bites left still. Look,
I know Amy. I know Amy's not spitting on her
food or putting it in her mouth and spitting it out.
So I feel like Amy's a pretty healthy person. Doesn't
like you went into the garbage and had a half
eating salad? Yeah? Yeah? Did you not have food? Not

(27:32):
in any food? You watch us eat, see when we
put food in the trash, and then if you liked
what we had going after it, I will Yeah, I
pay attention. That's so weird, but it was a free meal.
It was really a free snack and didn't fill me up,
but you know, tied me over to I can get
somewhere to eat. So you found somebody else but food

(27:53):
in the trash. I told you your TikTok angle was
always to go into the trash and eat film and
I just ate it. I didn't. I had no idea
anybody saw me. And once she started talking about I
was like, dang, I got caught. That's so weird. On
the phone Michael and Delaware, Hello, Good morning, Michael. What's
going on? A couple of weeks ago, you were listing
the top five country karaoke songs and you had said

(28:17):
that Country Roads is in a real country song. How
did you say that that's like the best country song ever?
I agree, I say that when people are classifying that song,
generally they don't classify that as a country song. So
if people are going, hey, let's out your top one
thousand country songs, I don't know that most people would
put Country Roads because it's the most country of all
country songs, which, by the way, controversial. Back in the

(28:39):
day when John Denver was a country artist, you know,
he won the big award for I believe Entertainer of
the Year, and they burned his when they announced he
wanted the CMAS. They burned the sheet of paper he
was on stage. Yeah, so he was controversial, even though
it got no more country than John Denver And this
little ditty right here here you go. Yes, let's see

(29:01):
if we can do it. Come on almost Heaven, West Virginia,
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shannon Doha River. That's all I got
from It is Dono stating than the trees, younger than

(29:23):
the mountains, growing like the breeze. Country Roads. Take me home,
but in the right spot. Yeah, to the place everybody
high beloved West Virginia and Mama, take me home Country Roads. Alright,

(29:49):
let's couch freestyle go take me home trail. Yeah, that's
where I want to go, my mom. That's Azzie Osborne.
Keep going, get on a bus, get on a plane.
We're going say good run. Yeah again. All right, here

(30:13):
we go back to the hooking. Go Auntry Roads, take
me home to the planes. Hi belive, West Virginia. Mama,

(30:33):
take me home, Country ros. Big emotional ending, lunch bucks,
big emotional ending that's saved by the belt. That's Jesse. Yeah,
I'm so so s hate Michael. You aren't gonna get
an argument for us, uh because I agree with you.

(30:55):
I was just saying, most people don't consider that a
country song, but you know what lyrics like Amoevin West, Virginia,
Blue Ridge Mountain, Shannondoo River. Come on, that's the country
as it gets, right, m How you like that performance
there for you? A little special? That's for you? Yeah?
I was like a four out of ten. Oh do
you know what will sound good though? Let us sound

(31:16):
really good? Is click when I hang up on him? Yeah?
How that sound that? A ten out of ten? Yeah? Exactly.
Port our hearts there and that's what we get. Thank
you Michael for that call. Appreciate that. Up on my podcast,
The Bobby Cast, I had Ali Colleen on and she's
been in to perform great artists, but we talked about

(31:37):
her growing up as Garth Brooks daughter, and so she
talked about how she was exposed to invasion of privacy
at an early age because everybody would stop her dad
all the time. I learned very early that when I
got picked up from school, Okay it's a fifteen minute
drive home, I get to go home in forty five minutes.
And that's because they're going to be people at the gate,
and my dad is the artist of all artists, and

(31:57):
it's going to talk to them, and we're just gonna
have to sit in the car and wait on him
to go and talk to these people that I didn't
really understand why they were outside the gate, and then
I get to go home and play. I knew that
the grocery store was going to take a long time.
I learned consistently through my whole life. Just that won
a huge invasion of privacy from fans. Again my parents,
I don't think how to clue how to navigate, and
navigated it in such an amazing way. I think a

(32:18):
lot is lost on the fact too, that Garth just said, Hey,
I'm gonna check out for a while and go home
and raise my kids. And that's what he did. And Yeah,
it's really difficult at times, and she talks about that,
especially when you're super famous and living in Tulsa. It's
not like there's a culture built there like Los Angeles,
even Nashville or New York. He would just go to
soccer games. Wow. And as cool as it seems, it

(32:42):
was tough for a kid to live in that and
that be their life constantly. So it's just a great,
great podcast on her talking about her life as an
artist but also what it was like growing up with
having Garth Brooks as her dad. So check it out.
It's on the Bobbycast. I hope you guys go listen
to it, search for it and subscribe if you'd like.

(33:04):
You're Amy's pile of stories. So for me, avocados are
crazy because you buy them at the store and you're like, oh,
these are going to be good for a while, and
then you take them home. Next thing you know, they're
no good anymore. How long are they supposed to be
good for? I mean mine they just ripen super fast.
It depends, so I have to like throw them in
the fridge. But I mean I don't know the standard
shelf life, but mine in a couple of days from

(33:24):
buying them, when they're super hard, when they're super squishy
and soft. So I saw on TikTok there's this viral
hat going around where if you just store them in water,
like if you get tougherware, fill it up with water,
throw an avocado in there, it'll stay fresh for weeks.
A cold water is temperature matter. I don't I don't
think so. I mean, you could just put it in
the water, on the warm water anything warm water and

(33:45):
stay safe. Well, they're saying that as long as it's
in the water, it'll stay fresh for weeks, and I'm like, oh,
this could be a helpful hack. Well, the FDA has
put out a warning saying do not do this at
home because it can make you violently ill. Well, it's
a risk, right, even if it worked seventy percent of
the time, If people are like, wow, look it is
it does work, and maybe they even know how to

(34:06):
look at the avocado to see if it is still
ripe and healthy. But it's at thirty percent, it's gonna
rock people and make them super sick. Yeah, that's big.
But anything on TikTok, it's like, hey, you guys, here's
a hack for how you can eat or how you
can preserve. I want to follow it unless you like
go to three layers deep and researching it because I
see all the baby food people are making because the
baby food shortage, and it's like, all right, guess what
you do. First of all, you get some tied to turgent.

(34:27):
It's nerds and then you mix that with a little
bit of apple sauce wallah, and you're like, wait, what
peoples getting done? But that's on. It's that kind of
stuff on TikTok, right, so be careful? All right? What else?
So this summer, families that are looking for you maybe
an open community pool or a guarded public beach to
hang out at, they might not get to because one
hundred thousand pools and beach areas might be shut down

(34:51):
because they don't have lifeguards for them. One hundred thousand.
What's the latest? And then we're still trying to figure
out when the tryouts are and how we're going to
get me there tryouts to go be a lifeguard? Yes? Correct?
Are you trying to win an Olympic gold medal? No,
you have to be certified. Can't you just go and
have your own little deal like a one on one
somebody has to watch it one on one. Oh yeah,
I can probably figure that out. That's what we're trying

(35:11):
to figure out. Logistics, Eddie. Are you part of the
American Lifeguard Association? I think I was at one point.
I love that song from Guard is the American Lifeguard Association?
So Gabby Barrett. She needs help naming her baby boy,
who's due later this year, and she asked like her
fans to submit baby names. In her Instagram stories, she

(35:32):
wrote that she would prefer something Southern or biblical. So
I don't know if we had any ideas we could
like throw in the hat. So we're thinking about Gabby
Is and I like Gabby and I have known Gabby
for a long time. We've worked together on American Idol.
She's from Pittsburgh, and she's all and she kind of
has a Southern accent now and that's always she went
to a Southern baby, Now I get it. I mean
her husband is from Texas. I worked with him too

(35:52):
on idol, and maybe that's what it is. Is she
on the south side of Pittsburgh. That's a good question
because if she is, that would the accent would make
it's a little bit um. I let's see I wreck.
How about Jesus. Oh, but it's gonna be like sorry, sorry,
GAHD God oh wow ad that way, it is not sad.

(36:18):
It's this is our son GHD or g a w
D god Man. That's like slang, mind's like actual like
Ezekiel God. I like that name bred Ezekiel. Yeah, okay,
all right, I maybe that's my pile. That was Amy's
pile of stories. It's time for the good news. There's

(36:42):
a game ward named Jake. He's got a dog named Coda,
and man, you want them on your team because if
somebody goes missing, they're in action. Last week and eleven
year old girl went missing and they found her within
an hour and by day, I mean, Jake shows up
a Coda and Coda sniffs her out and finds her.
Then last Sunday night they were called in because it
was a seventy seven year old woman who'd been missing
since last Saturday, You're talking about almost a week. So

(37:05):
Coda picked up her scent, like smelled her clothes and
then went into the woods and found her behind her house,
deep in the woods, severely dehydrated, but alive and she's
gonna be fine. So you have a game warden and
a dog. It's like a crime fighting show. That's like
turn her a huge part two. That's pretty awesome that
dog can do. That can smell something, Yeah, and then
go and find a human. I mean, my dog only

(37:26):
sits three out of five times. She sits three out
of five times, much less find somebody. I did teach Eller,
though she's now learning tricks. And Ella was a dog
we rescued that was super aggressive because and I wrote
about this on my Instagram when we rescued her, she
was probably too young to be away from her mom,
but they also couldn't find her mom, so found her

(37:46):
on the street. We took her. She bite and attacked everything, humans,
dog's walls. We tried to train her, no luck. We
had a trainer come to the house and try to
train all of us. No luck. Super aggressive. We went
to a Russian specialist who told us Ellor would never
be able to stay at our house because of Kaitlin
and myself and Stanley, because she wouldn't stop attacking Stanley

(38:09):
and he's just a bulldog. He's like, what is happening here?
My life was awesome until this happened. It's so they're like,
you have to get rid of the dog, and so,
to Caitlin's credit, she's like, well, there's no chance we're
getting rid of Ellor. We just adopted her. So we've
had Eller for like a year and three months now.
It's not the same dog. She's not aggressive toward anything,
we can give Stanley a treat in front of her
and she'll just sit and chill and wait. It's I

(38:31):
mean it literally is a whole different dog in that
her presentation not aggressive, no aggression, nothing. It's just now
that I think she feels love and that she feels
like we're gonna be there for her and she's gonna
get her. She's good. She chills, she turns over and
let's a belly be rubbed and is not aggressive at all.
She'll bite Stanley on the head, but only like ah,

(38:54):
like Tony get into play, and we even allow that
because there's no aggression in her at all. So it's
awesome story work with a place called Wags and Walk
here in Nashville. And she's no coda, but she might
be hey day one day, she might be like coded.
That's what it's all about. Right there. That was tell
me something good. All right, this hour, we're gonna get
started in building a home for a hero probe. About

(39:17):
twenty minutes or so, we'll talk to a Navy Petty
Officer second Class Anthony Thompson, who was injured while deployed
in Iraq, and he's had a rough goal of it,
but we feel like it's our job to help him,
so we're gonna talk to him and hopefully inspire you
to help as well. So that'll come up in like
twenty minutes or so. Right now, let's go over and
get in with Amy's Morning Corny, Morning Corny. What do

(39:41):
you call a middle aged dinosaur? What do you call
a middle aged dinosaur? My back is Saurus. That was
the Morning Corny. On Friday, we're gonna be releasing our
Patriotic Pimp and joy line, and what we're gonna do

(40:02):
is we're gonna build a home for a hero. So
we're about to have Anthony Thompson on the phone, Navy
Petty Officer second Class, Anthony Thompson. He cannot speak because
of injury, so his wife will be talking with us now.
The story about Anthony is that in two thousand and seven,
he was deployed in Iraq. Him and seven of his
marines were standing post at a bridge that ran over
a six lane highway. The bridge was struck with an

(40:23):
ied that detonated. All eight men were thrown in different directions.
Anthony was thrown twenty five feet in the air and
then landed fifty feet on the ground below the bridge,
on top of a bunch of rubble, concrete rubble. So
he has a diffuse exonal injury, which is a severe
traumatic brain injury, as well as a spinal cord injury.

(40:44):
He's confined to a wheelchair, and he is non communicative,
which is why we're gonna talk to his wife. But
he's there too, So he has a purple heart. He
has so many things, so many awards that he has earned.
And our goal, because we don't keep any of this
money when we release this on Friday, is for you
to have something awesome, for you to have something that's
a talking point to share the message of Pip and joy,

(41:04):
and also for us to rebuild Navy Petty Officer second
Class Anthony Thompson's house from the inside out. Because if
you're in a wheelchair and you're just living in a
normal house, that has got to be very difficult for
the family. That's gonna be very difficult for everyone involved.
So let us now go over and talk to Anthony
Thompson and his wife, Von. Let me start with this, Von,

(41:25):
so tell me a little bit about both you and
Anthony and how you guys met. We met through a
mutual friend at a bar. I called his friend up
and said, hey, I'm out with friends. So they met
us up. Our friend introduced stuff and we got to
talking and from that point on we talked every single
day after that. So you get married. In oh five

(41:47):
and oh seven, he was deployed in Iraq, and I wonder,
as a wife, what do you feel when your husband
is in a foreign country, I mean extremely foreign, you know,
fighting every day for our freedom, but just fighting every day,
it takes your I mean your heart just goes with them.
Everything that you do, or at least everything that I did,

(42:09):
was a little bit just constantly something's missing. You just
feel like constantly something is missing. So in two thousand
and seven, while he was deployed in Iraq, that is
when his injury happened. Can you tell me how you
found out and what they told you. So I was
actually teaching high school Spanish. I was teaching high school
Spanish in California, right outside the base that he was

(42:31):
stationed at. I had gone out to pick up lunch.
I came back to my classroom and my phone rang
from a number from base. I answered it and he's like,
I mean you to take a seat and I was like,
and I immediately was just begging him to tell me

(42:51):
what had happened? And so what did he tell you?
That he had been involved in what they called an SVBIED,
which is a suicide vehicle born improvised explosive device. They
didn't have much information as far as his real injury,
like the extent of his injuries. I guess I should say.

(43:12):
They told me he had lacerations on his legs, arms
on his face, and that he was being METAVACT to
a different battalion aid station in Iraq, that they would
call me back with more information. He obviously lived, But
at this point, how is Anthony's health? Anthony surprisingly is

(43:35):
extremely healthy. I mean, he's very limited in he's on
our senses. He's on a very strict diet. He's fed
through a gtube, you know, a tube that goes directly
into his stomach and gets he gets his nutrition and
medications that way. He's unable to speak. He's unable to

(43:56):
do anything for himself, you know, breasting, he go into
the bathroom, you know, everything is he depends on someone
else to do for him. Was it a spinal cord injury?
So he suffered a spinal cord injury when he landed
on the concrete rebel, and then he suffered a severe
traumatic brain injury as well. You know, to hear your

(44:18):
positivity and I say, hey, is he health? You said, yeah,
he's quite healthy or whatever he said, and then you
talked about all the difficulties that he is still having.
It just says a lot to how you guys are
approaching this again with such a positive outlook, Because if
that were me, I would say I'm not healthy at all.
But to hear you two being so strong and to go, yes,
he is very healthy and he is fighting this, but

(44:40):
he's very healthy. I think that says a lot about
what both of you guys are doing for each other.
Right now, we have to go into all of this.
We kind of have to approach all of this by
constantly looking at the silver lining. I was twenty weeks
pregnant with our son aj when Anthony was injured. He
was born five months after his dad injured. This is

(45:00):
the only way he's ever known his dad, and that
has probably been the biggest challenge, you know, raising a
son with his dad injured the way that he is.
But given that our son is honestly, and don't get
a big head. Aj he's our joy, he's our reason
to keep going, and he's our reason to always look

(45:21):
for the silver lining. Von Thompson's on with us, who
was the wife of Anthony Thompson. Anthony is confined to
a wheelchair as noncommunicative, so she's talking for him. He
was also awarded a Purple Heart of many other medals
and ribbons, and we'd spend a whole segment here reading
all the awards that he has earned. Tell Anthony, we're
so appreciative of him. We're so appreciative of you for

(45:42):
spending some time with us, and let us get to work,
and we hope to talk to you really soon about this.
Thank you so much, Bobby, We so appreciate it. Yeah,
thank you, and cannot wait to talk to you again,
because I got a feeling when we do talk again,
it's going to be great news, I hope. So all right, Van,
and tell your son, don't get a big head. I'm
watching too, all right, I'm also gonna be watching. Okay,

(46:04):
all right, hey, Von Anthony, thank you, Thank you Anthony
for everything you've done for this country. And we're now
going to get to work for you, and I hope
you guys have an awesome rest of the day. Thank
you so much. You do. All right, bye, guys, bye bye. Right,
we're gonna do it as a team. We're gonna help him,
so Anthony Thompson, a Navy Petty Officer second Class, Anthony Thompson.

(46:24):
As a show, the people in this room, the people
listening to this, we want to help rebuild his home.
I mean, think about that, an id boom and he's
so lucky to be alive, but he is going through
so much and we actually can help him again on
Friday at Bobby Bones dot com nine Central, So that
would be let's do the math here ten Eastern, nine Central,

(46:46):
eight Mountain seven Pacific. There you go. Yeah, I feel
like I was running a marathon on Amy's the person
with the water right there. There you go, You've can
do it. We're gonna help We're gonna do this together
for him. So you guys be on and be ready
to go, and we're gonna help him out. And that's
what we do on this show. All right, Thank you?
Is it too early to text somebody? No? For I know,

(47:06):
for us, I know, but you're good? Are you sure? Yeah.
What if it's an artist who probaly doesn't wake up
to early, but does it wake him up? Depends if
they're smart, they have do not disturb on dance Myers,
Dan and Shay. He's wakes up earlier. Yeah, I think
he's an early riser, find like rock Star, but wakes
up early and like eats vegetables, right, yeah, find the
rescues dogs. Yeah yeah, yeah, all right, he replies if

(47:30):
he yawns in a reply, I know, uh no, I
just we have important We have different lives here where
we wake up so early that when it becomes this hour,
it's like noon and we just go willy nilly as
a day, call them people knocking on doors, and so
it's just a different lifestyle we have. Um, okay, let's
talk about this because Amy comes into the studio freaking

(47:50):
out this morning because she's like, I think the cops
are coming to my house. Did they come to your house? Yes?
What happened? Well I found out after the fact that
they did in fact arrive. So my phone wasn't plugged
in all the way, So you know, I plugged, I
charged my phone at night and I go but the
but the outlet in the wall. It wasn't plugged into
the wall, but I didn't know that. So you charge
your phone into nothing. So I'm thinking all night it's charging.

(48:13):
Not only that, I decided to listen to, you know,
some noise making stuff which killed my phone, like it
made it die way sooner. And I guess in the
middle of the night my phone died. My alarm to
go off. I'm shocked. I made it here on time,
and so I had about five minutes to get ready
and get out the door. And I opened the door
to run to the car and my house alarm goes off.

(48:35):
But it doesn't go It's more of a sign. It's
more subtle at first. It's like it's like giving you
the however long to enter your code. Yeah, the only
problem is I don't know the code for the keypad.
I I have a I have an app on my
phone for my alarm. You don't know the code inside
your house in case I did. But when you enter

(48:55):
it wrong, it's not like don't they call you and yo, hey,
your phone's going off. But my phone, remember this is
the phone. Well, all of this goes back to the
fact that my phone is dead. So but I if
I can again. If I can just get out the door,
I won't be late to work, because what happens if
you're late to work, you have to go home. Exactly.
We get set home and I'm like, I am not
gonna be set home and I'm not gonna be late

(49:16):
on an instant like that though. That's one, yeah, but
I had no way to call you because so I
just I actually am questioning my judgment at this point.
But this should also show you how dedicated I am
to getting here on time, because this alarm just starts
blaring like it is loud, like basically the police are coming. Wait,
you can hear and you drive off. Oh. I get

(49:38):
in my car and I'm like, you know what, I'm
sure like my kids are sleeping. Nobody's woken up at
this point, and I'm like, well, okay, my husband's not there.
And so I back out the driveway and I had
to work and I'm like, with the alarm going on,
you out of your mind. I supposed to do. My
phone was dead, so listen did you do as you
go on and plug your phone and it takes about
two minutes with a little battery to come back on.

(49:59):
Probably then you have one percent, and then when you
get that one percent, you call up here and be like, hey,
my house alarms going off. I'll be a few minutes later. Yeah.
I've been thinking about this because again questioning my judgment,
but I feel like we're all such nervous rex about
being late to work that I went into like fight
or flight, and I, you're not being robed. I took
off you fight went flight like the anxiety I felt around.

(50:25):
First of all, my alarm not going off. I think
I was already just woke up in that mode. And
then I was doing I was in survival whatever I
needed to do to take care of myself, which included
me leaving my house while the alarm is blaring. So
the cops came to your house, Yeah, so they did so,
but you're not there, I know, but we have someone
that tear gas or tear gas kicking the door down.

(50:47):
I had someone arriving at the house to eventually help
out with the kids and stuff, and so when she
got there, the cops were there, and she was like, oh,
I hadn't even had a chance to call her to
tell her what happened, because you didn't get here in
charge your phone. I did, but oh, it takes twenty
minutes for me to drive to work and my phone
was dead the whole time because I don't have a
charger in my Oh my goodness, Oh how do you

(51:09):
know a charger in your fire car? Not feeling like
a responsible adult right now, but trust me, I am
just not today. I just can't believe you left the
house with the alarm going? But who do you got
here on time? No, I hear you. I don't even
care about that. What about your kids? Who are they
didn't wake up? Oh my god, even though what alarms
going off? Thank goodness. I mean now I'm worried, like
if there's a fire, So what did they wake up

(51:30):
to the cops going, hey, are you okay? No? I think, well,
I don't know if Shannon, who helps us. I don't
know if she got there like a right about at
the same time. I don't know how it happened. But
she texted me and she's like, so the police were
here this morning, and like, yeah, yeah, I figured that
might happen. So but you got here and charge your phone?
And that's when I came on charger. I brought mine

(51:50):
from the wall and then plugged it in, but you
didn't plug into your car because you can take something
the raw. It takes this special cord in my car
and a cassette players. Trust me, my car has the
USB and you know how new Apple chargers have that
teeny tiny because Apple likes to change everything and make
it difficult, and my car doesn't have that. Well, you're okay,

(52:12):
everything's good. Cops are no charges, You're all clear. Yeah,
except for if the police happen to be listening to
the show right now and they realize that's my house,
they're probably thinking, what kind of a mother are you?
I don't think it's just the police that think that.
I know, and now I'm telling the girl, but I'm
admitting that sometimes when we're not in our rational brain,
we make decisions. Nobody was going to get hurt. It

(52:35):
doesn't make you a bad mom. It just makes you
a human who didn't make a good decision. But you
at times that was frantic, but you at times forget
or disregard m Where are you going with this human life?
Not life? My children? No? Okay? Good? The ability to

(52:55):
make quality decisions? What? Well? But I got here on time,
I know, I know, but your priorities were a little
out of a way that time you left your car
running for like three hours when you in the garage.
He's loved running. Remember, well, I didn't know what it
was reading. I didn't know. You don't know what you
don't know. It's like as I says, anyway, So if
you happen to have something like this happened to you today,

(53:16):
don't worry. Not alone. Probably I hope you are alone,
and it's not happening a lot. But that's a good story,
and nobody was heard. I like it. Thank you for
being vulnerable and sharing that with us. Yeah, because I
could have kept this all to myself. Yeah, you could
have just plugged your phone in for I mean for
three minutes. So if I listen though, but all of

(53:38):
this was happening because my phone died and my alarm
didn't go off, that's the irresponsible part. I didn't check
to see that my charger was plugged into the wall.
So if I had called here and said, hey, I'm
gonna be late because I didn't wake up because my
alarm never went off, that's not what you say, Hey
I'm gonna be late. My house alarm was going off,
and cops are coming over here, but I went to
the origin. The origin is that I let my phone
die and that's irresponsible. Okay, I needed to get here.

(54:00):
We'll go home. So when you throw the cops in
the late story, we're good. Yeah, as long as you
can prove it. I sign slip by the cops going
I was at your house. Let's go over and talk
to Jenny in Virginia, who's on the phone right now.
Appreciate that, Jenny, what's going on? Hey? How are you
pretty good? What can I do for you? Yeah? I
was just listening a little while ago when a van

(54:22):
was on the phone. I listened to you guys every morning,
by the way, and it gave me the chills because
the name just sounded familiar, rung a bell. And as
I was driving, I remembered if we met them in
the hospital, and I'm trying to remember, but I think
it was late two thousand and eight, early two thousand
and nine, and they're an amazing family, and you guys

(54:42):
are amazing for what you're doing for them, and I
just wanted to say thank you. Well, we appreciate that call.
You know, Anthony is someone that served our country and
he got the bat into that deal. I mean times
a thousand. I do you went off. He's in a wheelchair.
I can't speak. They have such a great attitude. I

(55:04):
don't think I would, if I'm being honest with you,
I don't think I would. So for us to come
on this show and do it together. And together doesn't
mean this room and I ever say do it together.
I mean the people who listen to the show, because
I think if you listen to the show, you know
you're a certain type of person like we are. And
on Friday, we'll put our pimp and joy line up
and we don't keep any of that money, and our
goal will be to rebuild a house. He's in a wheelchair.

(55:26):
We want to make it as easy for him to
live his life normally day to day as possible. You know,
we're not trying to build him a rocket car or
you know, I don't know. It's not any frill type thing.
It's just a home where he can actually live as
normal of a life as possible, because I think he
deserves that. And I bet you think he deserves that too.

(55:47):
Not you, Jenny, I'm on her. I'm talking about the
listeners of the show. Yeah, so what we're gonna do.
If you miss a segment, go back and listen on
the podcast. But Navy Petty Officers second Class Anthony Thompson
was on with us. He had a bad injury into
thousand seven left him in a wheelchair, noncommunicative, and so
because of that brain injury and a spinal cord injury,
he is able to, you know, be an ad and

(56:08):
love his wife, but he's not really able to, you know,
move around as well as we would like for him
to be able to in his own house. So we're
gonna do that. We're gonna rebuild his house. It's gonna
be awesome. Nine am Central Time on Friday. Get your
Pimp and Joy stuff and we'll do it again. We've
built five this will be our fifth, one fifth, and
most of them have been ground up houses, but this
is going to be a complete They're gonna gut the

(56:30):
whole thing and make it ADA certified for him to
fit his needs. And it is patriotic Pimp and Joy line,
so red, white and blue fitting for a hero, a
veteran that deserves it. But also you'll get it in
time for fourth of July if you want something to wear.
But the contractor works quick. Here one of our house
twenty years, one little, one little barn thing done is best. Yeah,
I bet he's a lot better than And it clarify

(56:52):
it's that like us like out there building it or
like hiring contractors like it's a little I think my
barnermen built, but quicker if you guys have been out
there working on it. No, it's a quality organism building
homes for heroes, and we trust them with everything, and
so every dollar that we make goes to them and
they're putting it to good work. There we go. So
I appreciate that, called Jinny, thank you for allowing me
to reshine that light on it. Hello. Hello, and let's

(57:15):
go over and do the most important segment of the day.
Here are your big stories. Bobby's story. A man threw
a grenade into an Amazon delivery truck in Oklahoma City
last week. What Thankfully no one was hurt, no arrest
had been made. Here you go from KFR. Delivery driver
had a terrifying encounter in Oklahoma City on Monday around

(57:35):
three thirty pm. The police were called said hey, there's
been an accident. When they arrived at the scene, they
found an Amazon delivery truck that I crashed into a
mailbox and a parked vehicle. I probably would have crashed too.
Someone thrown a grenade in the back of the truck.
Just jumped out of the truck. Yeah, and then let
hey truck, I'll check in later. Yell, we'll meet up

(57:56):
after this. The driver told the investigators he was turning
around when he past a man and heard something hit
the floor of his truck, like inside of it, and
so he looked back and he saw a grenade rolling
around on the floor. Guy, the victim stated, he just
opened the driver door and jumped out. He did jump.

(58:17):
He sustained minor injuries to his knees after hitting the ground.
He said, I didn't park the van. I just looted
to drive off. I completely get it. Luckily nobody was
hit like a human wasn't there. But the van crashed
into a mailbox and a parked car. The victim said
he went back to the van and then tossed the
grenade out of the van. He touched it well at
that point, I think I'd been sitting there a while.
I agree, i'd just called it in the robots squad

(58:39):
or just never called anybody. And quite amazon and left
the movement and had a new life. All that could
have happened. I changed my name. I'm out of there.
But that sucked. Noah, rest have been made in the case. Probably,
and this is not a problem you can mess with.
But probably it was an old grenade from back in
the day. And somebody's doing a little joke. But that's

(59:02):
not something that you proby. Grenade. Maybe toy, probably plastic
and be easy. I've just seen some like World War
two grenades. Raise cologne spice bomb. You have a cologne
that's in the space the shape of a grenade. Yeah,
you can't take it through airports. It's called spice bomb.
Even after all this time, they haven't changed. It is

(59:26):
called flower bomb. And it's a bomb, looks like a bomb.
It just looks like hernade. But you would think now
they would change the bottle. Yeah, after all, it doesn't
have like a like a little thing that you pulled
like a wide bomb. It's a circle with a big
views coming out of him. Harry's House by Harry Style
sold five hundred twenty one thousand copies. It's the number
one album this week. And here is some of this

(59:52):
that's from billboards. So congratulations to Harry Styles. There have
been reports of him running about thirty minutes south of here,
just running on a off course running really yeah, I
don't know why it is staying here as much as
he does. People are like, hey, we just saw Harry
Styles run by again, and I'm like, I don't film
me now, or I'm gonna be on the lookout. I
will find him. Yeah, me too. Let's see. An Australian

(01:00:15):
man gets a winning lottery ticket for his birthday and
then splits the money with the gift giver. An unidentified
man from Australia was given a winning scratch off lottery ticket,
scratched it one hundred thousand bucks. Then he said, you
know what, I'm gonna split it with you since you
gave it to me fifty thousand and fifty thousand lunch bucks.
Would you ever do that a million years? No, I
never split it. Never, Because he's a gift to me.
You gave to me. You should be happy for me.

(01:00:35):
If I gave you a scratch off ticket and it
was worth let's just say, one hundred thousand dollars, would
you at all go? Hey, I think you should have
a piece of this five thousand, ten thousand. No, because
you gave it to me as a gift. That's true,
But I'm saying, what if first, yeah, yeah, what if
I gave you a ticket in one hundred thousand? How
much you've given me, probably five thousand, would you take it? Absolutely?

(01:00:57):
Would only give me five. That's from the lot. A
coyote sneaks into a California home through a doggie door
that's crozy because we have doggie doors, and I always think,
what if an animal comes in through that door, like
a big animal, because Ella's pretty tall, So the doggie
door is a pretty tall doggie door. But a coyote
was able to sneak into a California home by using

(01:01:18):
that door. It was roaming around the Woodland Hills neighborhood
in Los Angeles, saw the dog door and jumped over
a little fence into the doggie door and inside the home.
And there's a video and it's inside the house. And
so she's like, I will no longer allow the dogs
to go outside alone. So we close ours in the

(01:01:39):
evening and all the way through the night, so it's
not open at nighttime because we feel like animals will
probably come in or could a human fit in mine
like a little one get fit a dryer, But you
don't that's true, So I mean, yeah, you could probably
belly crawl through it. I guess. Researchers create a robot

(01:01:59):
so small it can crawl along the edge of a penny. Oh,
you know for sure, when these get to be a
little more prevalent, people are gonna be sending them up
people's butts. You know that there, Why put a camera on.
Let's let's see what's up there. For sure, friends, no
friends like noses, but you know they're gonna somebody's gonna

(01:02:19):
do it if it's that small, no doubt about it.
Researchers at the Northwestern University. At Northwestern University developed or
remote control robot that is so tiny it can comfortably
travel along the edge of a penny. You're telling me
some of your idiot friends wouldn't get drunk cent in
your ear? Yeah, in your ear. Let's hey, come on, man,
we'll we'll crawl it back out. But there's a tiny camera.
Let's see what we can see in there. Absolutely, it

(01:02:40):
go on the ear, the nose. But if there's a
whole drunk people are gonna send it into the body,
but it is tiny, and so they believe this technology
might bring the field closer to realizing that micro sized
robots can perform practical tasks, maybe even surgeries. You can
get to places without having to cut into the body.
You can send something super small all in and do

(01:03:00):
it from the inside, which would be super cool. And finally,
Stephanie Motto, Amy, does that name ring a bell at all?
Stephanie Motto, I don't think so. We had a story
about her. She was selling her farts in jars. Oh yeah,
make a lot of money. And then she was doing
so much of that and people were buying it that
she had bad gut issues because she was constantly trying

(01:03:21):
to fart. So that was the story and we were
amazed how much money she was making, thousands and thousands
of dollars. Well, now she is selling sweat from her breasts.
She hadn't move on. She says, four hours of lounging
by the pool can give her ten bottles of sweat
on a sunny day. She then takes those bottles till
the five hundred bucks seat whoa, and she sells them

(01:03:41):
da who ship da who wed Weird people, Okay, weird people.
Weird people don't walk down with the sign going I'm
a weird person. They do that in their home and
hope that no one finds out they're a weird person
for the most part, So they're not public about buying
this for the I don't know that they all are.
I would imagine most people that buy this don't want
people to know they buy this. It's kind of like
their secret thing. So when you buy it, do you

(01:04:03):
just let it? Do you pour it on yourself or
you just look? I don't know what people like you
would do it. I can't you tell us. All right,
that's your big stories, thank you story. Ronnie Dune, lead
singer of Brooks and Dunne, turned sixty nine years old today.
Holy crap, I mean he can still sing, sing sing.

(01:04:24):
He sang with us the Raging Kiddy gets Eddie and
I band and we were like, wow, sounds sounds so good.
And then he sang at my wedding and everybody's like, wow,
he sounds so good. I wouldn't have thought Ronnie was
sixty nine years old. That's pretty cool. Yeah, he does
not look sixty nine. Do you think he colors? He
must color his hair. I tell you, as a guy,
we don't even think about that. I don't think we
don't think about asking or wondering if another guy does that.

(01:04:49):
He must just for men. But regardless, I never even
if he did or he didn't, that would never come
to my mind. I wanted to be color. His hair
never right. But that's why he doesn't look sixty nine.
He looks younger because his hair is not gray. He's
got twenty three number one so Brooks and Done the
best selling duo and country music history. More than thirty
million albums have birthday sixty nine years old. Ronnie Done,

(01:05:13):
I mean, I got a lot I can do. Here
is Ronnie Done. This is interesting because he's been on
the show a lot. I'm lucky to have been friends
with Ronnie and so Ronnie told us dur an interview
in our show. They started playing songs at clubs in Oklahoma.
The club only wanted to play cover songs, but they
would work in bootscoot and boogie, and so here you go,
here's Ronnie Done talking about that. These people kept coming
up and asking us to play it again. So I

(01:05:35):
kind of thought, well, maybe there's something there. So we'd
sneak into the set late at night down there. If
you if you'd play a song or do or play
in any of the clubs and they're going to dance,
then you're you know, you're out. So we had to
had to write songs that kept people moving, didn't turn
soul beer. And so they weren't the first to record
that song. By the way, a little fun fact for you,
Asleep at the Will, recorded in nineteen ninety. Here's a

(01:05:56):
clip of that version, by the interesting. When I sing
that song, I don't sing hilltoe. What are you saying?
Here we go docy dough? Yeah, me too. I'll just
be honest, goes, he'll too. I don't. I've never learned
the dance. Oh I didn't know that. I don't dance.
Yeah you do, but I always go, here we go,

(01:06:18):
docy do, Come on, baby, let's go. Even when we
sang it, do we sing it with him? And yes,
we sang it at the million dollars I did backing
up vocals wrong, they me too, because I got on
the micas like, here we go, docy do. Hey, That's
why they looked at us. No, I don't think that's
why I eddie. But also he has a system to
remember lyrics on stage that he doesn't. He doesn't remember lyrics,

(01:06:40):
so he has someone in his ears monitoring every and
then giving him Q words constantly. Like so his person
sits on the side stage and goes here here hildeto,
hildete do come on baby, come on baby, And this
is him talking about that. Well, everybody uses some kind
of reference like monitor or that, but um not only
has in my ear you'll cue it, we have no,

(01:07:02):
we have a whole system set up and you kind
of have to learn it. It's like it's like you'll
cue the first word before the beat and it just
comes suck in nature. After doing it for so long,
you don't even don't even think about. People go well,
that's that's really distracting. It's like no, it's not no.
But his person sits on the side stage with an
ear end. He'll he'll to tuda, come on, come on babe.
It just feeds them words as the show goes along,

(01:07:23):
which is awesome. Here is Ronnie singing at my wedding
and this is a cell phone video, so I don't
know if the audio is going to be wonderful, but
here you go. This is Ronnie singing Neon Moon. What

(01:07:47):
you broke? I can't do it anymore. I used to
could hit the high note. I push it for you,

(01:08:07):
all right. The goose is either gonna lay an aggar.
We're gonna make it happen A right O me. That's

(01:08:29):
pretty awesome. Aeah, it's so good. Ohay concert. That wasn't
my house. That's your wedding dude. Yeah, that's awesome. So
I love them. Ronnie done sixty nine years old. Today
they're out touring like crazy. You know, Jordan David is
opening for them. It just be a great show to
go to. We can play. Here's Neeon Moon. This is
the live version if you want to hear like them
really sing. This is Neon Moon with Eddie and I
and our group the Raging Idiots at the Million Dollars

(01:08:51):
Show that birthday, Ronnie. Here's Brooks and Dinne. The sun
goes down on my side of town, and long sun
feeling comes to my door and the whole world turn.

(01:09:18):
Oh the one down bar in the lad chaps got
a table for two. We're in the back, russ along
like a lot. I spend my st everin night bened

(01:09:45):
the line of an arm if you lose the bar
and live Solway's room, hit it bar long there, watch
it broken da here it is birthday. You want to

(01:10:12):
hear the rest of on go stream it, you know,
I mean still listen to it on the strum on
the old stream. Yeah, yeah, I want to play this
In an episode of Antiques Road Show. This is one
of my favorite clips. And Mike told me we played
it years ago, and I watched it again. It was
kind of moved by it again and I was like,
I don't remember planet. But there's a guy and he's
a veteran and he's like, man, I got this whole
watch and hey, guys, well let's look at it here

(01:10:33):
because it's from seventies. So I bought it back for
four hundred and thirty bucks while I was in Thailand
stationed over there. It's just an awesome clip. Now, keep
in mind back then, his salary is about three hundred
bucks a month. He never wore it, and in the
video you see he's got the box, got all the
paperwork with it, kept in a safety deposit box and

(01:10:54):
could use a little help right now. Honestly, he's like,
I'm just here's got long here a little bit looks
like a Vietnam vet. You well, you think of it,
Ann Bent look like and so here you go. Here's
the clip of this guy being told how much is
watch is worth. The date mark on the bracelet shows
that it was made in the first quarter of nineteen
seventy one. Collectors love this watch because Paul Newman, a

(01:11:14):
ward in a movie called Winning, wasn't this particular model.
It did not have the screwdown buttons the one that
Paul Newman wore. Currently, at auction, those watches are going
for approximately one hundred and fifty to two hundred thousand dollars.
Your watch is more special, it says it says Oyster
on it. They did that for an extremely short period

(01:11:35):
of time. We refer to that as a mark two dial,
and this particular model being marked oyster is extremely extremely rare.
A watch like this at auction is worth about four
hundred thousand dollars. He falls down right now, Okay, don't
fall I'm not done yet. I said a watch like

(01:11:57):
yours because of the condition of it, basically it's a new,
old stock watch nowhere on it, and the fact that
we have all this complete documentation here. Also maybe one
of the very few in the whole world that's still
was never worn. Your watch at auction today five hundred
to seven hundred thousand dollars. Now, I'm very serious and

(01:12:20):
absolute fabulous. Fine, it's one of the rarest Paul Newman models,
and in this condition, I don't think there's a better
one in the world. Can't thank you enough for bringing
me one of the greatest watches to ever see on
Antiques Roadshow, and thank you very much for your service. Unbelievable.
He just feels so good for the game. That's an
awesome clip. There you go. It's played Derk's Living Bobby

(01:12:44):
Bones show. By the way, I bought that watch for you, Lunchbox.
Oh yeah, look, get for me to you. If you're
not worried about somebody still in the idea, I can
give you the whole TV show pitch I've created for you, Lunchbox. Yeah,
I'm ready. I think that no one's going to steal
it because you have more connections than the people listening
to our show. These people in their cubicles at work.

(01:13:04):
I don't know that I'm talking about just that anybody. Okay,
so earlier to tell me something good, had an idea
about Lunchbox and reality show. And I've said over here
and taking some notes during breaks, and I can just
give you the pitch that I'm gonna send off today.
Let's hear it. You're really sending this off? Oh yeah, okay, yeah, yeah,
I think I think there's something to it more than

(01:13:25):
just like a reality show. Like I have an idea
that's a little different than thing I've seen before with
Lunchbox in it. Yeah, okay, I'll give you that coming
up in a second. All right, now do I start
in it? Oh yeah, it's about you, yes, definitely about you. Yes,
So we will come back. I will tell Lunchbox that.
And then the most expensive tequila. A bottle of this

(01:13:47):
tequila cost so much. I just I don't understand good tequila.
Can you tell the difference good tequila and bad tequila? Yeah?
What about great tequila and good tequila? Yes you can't.
Great tequila good there's a difference, yes, so obviously great
and bad. There's different night and day. Okay, I'll tell
you about this too, Hold on a minute, be back.

(01:14:10):
Since I don't drink, I don't really experience all these
artists bring in alcohol, you know, Country music the culture
is a lot of alcohol. I mean, listen to the
songs and so a lot of them have alcohol lines,
so I never know if they're crap or not. And
I'm not gonna ask you to name anybody lunchbox or
just in general. Are these artist brands whatever it is
to quila whiskey rum, do they have that? Yeah? Yeah,

(01:14:32):
chet yeah, Okay. Are any of them just awful? Yep?
Oh they are. Yeah. I think they just like, oh,
put their name on it, and they'll sell because it
has their name on it. I don't know if they
even taste it themselves because or they've never had that.
They get to check. They just get the check because whoa,
there's something that are that bad? Oh? Yeah, more than
one they're bad? Yeah? Are they? Mostly? If an artist

(01:14:53):
brings in alcohol, ray, I'll put you on this too.
If they bring in alcohol, do you just assume it's
gonna be bad? Add tasting alcohol and that's why they
got the artist to be on it, I do. I
think Parties is actually pretty good. So John's is pretty good. Yes, Okay,
I'm telling you the worst alcohol I've ever had, No,
I'm not. I'm saying is an artists alcohol? Yeah? Okay,

(01:15:14):
the worst at all time. I mean it tastes like
battery acid more than like Red Dog twenty twenty. As
you can say, I know nothing about it, I would
like to take a second. I can stand up for
Thomas Rhetz tequila because we did a tasting with him
at I Heart Country Fest, and he knows exactly, he
knows what he's talking about. Like he's very into it.
You can tell he's very dialed in. And I had

(01:15:36):
to sip it for the thing and it tasted good
to me. Have you had that? I haven't had. It
does pretty most right. You had that one. I've not.
Just just parties bourbon and then some others. Generally, you
think if an artist has an alcohol it tastes like crap.
Is that what happens in your head? In my head,
I think, oh, they're just getting their name on it.
They have nothing to do with it. They don't even
know if it tastes good. So it's got to prove
to you it's good. You don't just think an artist

(01:15:57):
has got it, so it's got to be good. Yes, interesting, Yeah,
I feel like if Bobby, if you were to put
your name on something like wouldn't you want to know
what it tastes like. Well, my new beer comes out
next week. I've never tasted at all. I'm like, no, guys,
the new whiskey. That would just seem crazy to me
to lend your name to something like that. And I
guess unless it's just paying you so much money, You're like,

(01:16:19):
I don't care. Wow, I'll just take the money. So
that's that's funny. They'll do crappy alcohol. Yeah, but maybe
they like it. Maybe they have different taste buds. Everyone does. Yeah,
that's true. One No, because you two were complaining about
one specific artist the same making jokes about it before
we came on the air. That's what led me to go, Hey,
so the most expensive tequila is a bottle of tequila

(01:16:42):
lay Diamante. Ever had that, never heard of it. It
costs three point five million dollars for a bottle. It's
age seven years now. A lot of this is the bottle, right.
They make the bottle super fancy too. It's crafted from
nearly five pounds of ultra pricey platinum and then's got
a bunch of diamonds. But between the tequila and the bottle,
the bottle costs three point five million dollars, which is

(01:17:04):
pretty crazy. Third, if I was rich, I'll just put
that right here on the desk show off. But you
would have that in your house. If people came over,
they'd be like, dang, he's got that tequila all right?
Didn't know, but I wouldn't know what it was unless
you said, you would tell everyone, here's my three point
five million dollars tequila, or I'd have the news story

(01:17:25):
right next to it where people can read it, like framed, yeah,
and put up absolutely when you're idiot, idiot by three
point five million dollars, you go to a museum, they
have a little synapsis local idiot, you're looking at synapsis
of whatever, they have it up there on the wall.
You would do that same thing with that tequila. Goodness,
that'd be awesome. Sherry in North Carolina, you're on the phone.

(01:17:46):
Appreciate you calling in here. Let's go over Sherry, Hi,
how are you hi? Video? What's happening? Yeah? I wanted
to find out from lunch box how long it's it
bensas he's been in school? What two thousand and three
was a last year of college? So whatever year that?
How many years that? Basically, Yeah, Yeah, in North in

(01:18:10):
North Carolina, if you've missed more than ten years of school,
they will not let you go back and catch up
on your degree. They'd drop everything that you've done. You
have to start over. No, go to Carolina. Yeah you
went to Texas, San Antonio. That's weird because the University
of North Carolina you have fake classes for a while
where you have to go and they gave you a diploma. Okay,
you're talking about athle that's a whole different thing. Oh,

(01:18:32):
look at your Look at Texas, Mike. You see if
Texas has that, Oh man, that'd be terrible way they
can happen. Yeah, that's crazy. Every tell me something good.
One ninety four year old gets a degree your credit. Um,
so look, Mike, if you'll look that up. So what
happened was earlier this morning, we were talking about a
story where this person goes back gets their degree, and
I'd mentioned that lunchbox is three hours short, and he
always has been since two thousand and three. He just

(01:18:53):
was one class away and never finished. And we're like,
why don't you go back and get that one one
class three credit. That's it, You're done, you have your degree.
And he's like I don't care. Yeah, I mean, I'm
winning out in the real world, got famous and no
need to go back. I mean the story said local
idiot doesn't graduate college. That's me. That's so lunchboxes. And
then you said what I said, Man, if you put

(01:19:15):
me on, You said, what would it take for you
to go back? I said, let's make a reality show
out of it where I and I go in and
I join a frat at forty I go back to
intramural sports things like that. Then we could talk. But
besides that, there's no point. Here's the idea that I
just pipe. Is called Old Commas School old School but
old School, oh yeah, I like the movie so well. Yes,

(01:19:38):
but instead of old School, it's old School boy blue.
And so this is what I wrote. Here we go,
d I gotta go back to the beginning, all right,
my co Yeah, can I just read you what I wrote?
This is the pitch, yeah, the pic. I work with
a team at wait wait at BBC, man, and this
is about me, right, yeah, I love it already. I'm in,

(01:19:58):
I said my co host forty one. I'm an idiot.
He needs three hours to graduate college left short one class.
The shows him going back to college for one class,
but going extremely hard. Frat party, school, live cramming, intermural sports,
all for one credit. Candy survive Masterpiece Theater. I think
Masterpiece Theater where you go into that show. It's an
old show where a guy's like, welcome to Masterpiece Theater.
What we're gonna do? And I'd be like, and this

(01:20:19):
week's episode, Lunchbox is going to try to actually pass
his trigonometry test. Can he do a keg stand? And
will he be able to do this? That's coming up
here on Old School? And then we check in and
it's not like The Jersey Shore where it's just a
reality show and you have to watch every episode. It's
like in a room. Doctor Bones would be your advisor.
I'm a doctor now, your academic advisor. And then we

(01:20:40):
would check in with you as you find finished your
one class. Well, I sent it off already and they
were They said, is this something you just found out
about him? I said, no, We've been a running joke
for the last twenty years. He even walked and got
a fake diploma, but he never got the real thing.
And then it's is that is funny so far? That's

(01:21:03):
all my guys, but their West coast. I mean, we're
had to move back to San Antonio. I don't know what.
Everybody don't get it. I don't We're in ten steps
ahead of what it. No, no, this is already happening,
Like I gotta tell my wife. No, this is where
you get in trouble. I'm gonna have to go him
to tell my wife today. I'll come back and see.
Then I'm going back to college. I'm had to join
a frat and some real sports. Yeah, we might have

(01:21:27):
to join you in more than just one class, though,
it might have to be like a whole semester because
one class fifteen hours. Oh man, can you keep up?
We'll see nothing could happened from this, but maybe they
want to. I mean, so I'm gonna be the guy
in class that everybody wants to assist next too, because
I'm the non traditional student. They're gonna be like, oh,
this guy knows what he's doing, like he's gonna put

(01:21:48):
in all the work to make sure the projects are improperly.
But little do they know. Yeah, because I had intro
to Earth systems in college, and we got to take
a group test, and then we took an individual test
and you averaged them together and that was your great man.
I got with this one, dude. I never studied for
a test. I got ass on every single test. We
got one hundred on every single group test. Was he older? Okay?
But you if someone comes to you and does that,

(01:22:10):
I know that's what I'm saying. They're gonna look at
me like that guy. I mean, I could have got
an A in that class so easy. But I never
studied a lit because I had that guy in my group. Huh.
All right, that's a lot of pressure. Okay, and I'm
bringing along the young kids. Okay, well you can. We'll
see what happens a lot that you guys. If any wait,
so he'll still hold down his job. And here that
shows baby, Yeah what about being a dad? And I

(01:22:30):
was gonna that's part of it too, that show take
him to college? Yea. Sometimes if you can't find a sitter,
then then the professor's like babysitting it. Take your kid, yes,
Kenny juggle listening and learning and also passing a little kid.
I don't know what anyway, there you go, lu And
I can't wait, what what what channel is this gonna? Erwn? No? No,

(01:22:50):
I don't like, who played the groundwork for this idea? Amy,
I think, well, Billy Madison. Billy Madison is what that's
I know. But right then, in the middle of tell
me something good, I said reality show. Boom boom boom.

(01:23:11):
So give me creditor, just say good Jo lunchbox, we
can go. It was a good job. All right, there
you go, thank you. Sorry. Today this story comes us
from Mississippi. There were members of the Air Force. They
were going on a training flight mission and they had
to fly to California. So they flew to California and

(01:23:32):
one guy's like, hey, can we land and pick up
my BMW motorcycle? So they landed at Martha's vineyard, had
a motorcycle loaded on the thing. Can't do that. No,
you're not supposed to land the air Force aircraft just
to pick up your personal motorcycle. Nothing got like won that.
But I can see how it's like, dang, I gotta
pick up my bike. It's right here. We got this

(01:23:52):
funny and it's like maybe he like once in a
training exercise and his bonus as he gets pick up
a bike. Yeah, no one will know. Yeah, we wouldn't
have known a lunchbox when I told us, Oh yeah,
so they made a little fifteen minute pit stop, and
now they've been downgraded in their status in the Air Force.
So you can't take a plane that you don't own
and land it somewhere that you don't have permission to
land it right and pick up your personal item. And

(01:24:14):
then they made him take the motorcycle back to California
on the plane. We had to take it back on
the same plane. Yeah. Well that seems a lot of counterproduction.
All right, I'm lunchbox. That's your bone head story of
the day. This woman's one hundred and three years old,
and that alone should be celebrated. I mean almost nobody
lives to be that old. But she jumped out of
an airplane as well. So she's one hundred and three.
You would think the wind would just like rip her

(01:24:36):
skin off, Yeah, like ah, like the wind Yeah, and
her arm legs just breaking in midair, everything falls off.
But she's one hundred and three. That's awesome. She jumped
out of a plane. Her name is Ruth Larsen. She
broke the Guinness record for oldest woman to conduct a
tanned on parachute jump when she was nineties. She wanted

(01:24:56):
to learn more about flying, and she started trying things again.
She's ninety, like paragliding, hot air ballooning. Okay, the hot
air ballooning, I get. You can picnic basket, I ain't,
but paragliding that sounds miserable. It seems also intense, but
good for her. She made her first parachute jump at
one oh one, but she did it again at one

(01:25:18):
hundred and three years old. I would love to see
her genetics and to see if her parents, if her grandparents,
how old they lived. Yeah, because the more we learn,
we can slightly alter things, but it's really hard to
change good or bad. Well. Yeah, and you know it's
genetics when they're like, you know, I live off bacon
and beer, and you're like, okay, that's all I've had

(01:25:39):
for dinner for twenty seven years, bacon and beer. Eddie.
One of you guys skydiving, do you know? Yes, Scuba
says it's coming up. I mean they're just trying to
coordinate the time to do it. And you've been cleared,
even with your four children. Yeah, your wife said go ahead,
have at it. Yes, And I even looked into life insurance,
but they said that's too late. You can't do something
like that right before. You can't do get life insurance
right before you go skydiving. What you do is you

(01:25:59):
have her do it, but have her whisper it. Be like, hey, listen,
mosman's going and then see what happens. Just let us
know that's not Report it back everybody. You can find
