Speaker 1 (00:01):
Transmitting Liza, Okay, around the room, bring me the news
story that tickled your pickle this morning. That sounds weird,
(00:21):
it is, but okay, what tickle you pickle? Eddy? So
I saw that Sophia Coppola, who is Francis Ford Coppola's daughter.
Who's Francis for He directed The Godfather. He's a huge director,
got it, like big big Curt his name, But I
don't know. I never seen Godfather, but yes, well this
is his daughter. She's done a few movies that you
may watch. But she's doing a new movie about Priscilla Presley.
It's called Priscilla, and it comes out in October and
(00:43):
it's supposed to be awesome, and it tells her side
of the story, not Elvis's, but her side of being,
you know, thirteen years old and dating Elvis and then
marrying him. She's still alive though, correct, which is cool
because she could say true or not true. Is she
involved in it at all? She's not part of it.
But she said that she did consult Sophia and they
talked about it. And okay, then I've seen she said
(01:05):
Sophia did a great job. She's already seen the movie.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Then I've I've seen some stories related to this that
I didn't know where related to this or she because
Elvis like started dating her when she was like fourteen, correct,
that's what she said she was. He was more like
lonely and just needed somebody to hang out with. I
mean that's a likely word. But still, you know, if true,
because Elvis was a weird guy.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Yeah, and he was a massive superstar then he get yes,
and that's what made him even weirder. He could do
nothing and there's no way said you can't do that,
you can't. So he was a superstar when he met her. Yeah,
it's creepy and it's awful. Well, he met her in
the army while he was in Germany, I believe. And
then he had the daughter of one of the guys
that like higher military guys, correct, and he had to
(01:46):
ask her like, hey, can she move to America with us?
A different time. But still I don't like it. I
don't like it at all. But it makes me if
that's true where he didn't do anything dirty with a kid,
that does make me feel a little bit better. And
she's saying that.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
I mean, right, she's tell me his age again.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Twenty four. No, I mean, like I hear you, it
was also nineteen fifty nine, and that's no excuse. But
I don't know what they were doing back then.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
It feels like everybody nineteen fifty nine was doing one
of those things where all horse pulls to pull in
the in the garden.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
No plow. Yeah, it's like everybody's plowing fields in dat
fourteen year olds.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Man, it's crazy. Back then doesn't sound good. Was that
your question?
Speaker 3 (02:24):
His age?
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Yeah? Yeah, I don't like it.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Yeah, I saw the article about how she was fourteen.
She said nothing happened, but I didn't know his age.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
When they got married, she was twenty one and he
was thirty two.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
They were compared.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Well had She had to leave her family and move
in with Elvis's family, and I think Elvis's parents her
parents her parents. Dude, technically where twenty four? He lived
with his parents, well, twenty they all lived together, they
all lived together. He was taking care of them. He's
very poor, Okay, so when he started making money, he
got the parents to move in with him. Elvis is
from he's.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
From Memphis, No, Missippi, that's right.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Yeah, if I.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Were if them Misissippi and everybody thought Elvius was from Memphis.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
G's where Graceline was. I'd be still offended. Yeah, it'd
be like people are like, no, Johnny Cash is from
Tennessee because Nashville. Now Johnny Cash is in Arkansas.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
I know, but I got there. I just dido quickly,
too fast.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Anyway, I'm excited about that movie. Yeah, me too. Now
that's really cool. Fourteen though in that's tough. It's weird.
But like people just get married at fourteen anyway back then,
but they were married over fourteen year old. I know,
I know, I know, I get it. But I'm just saying, kids,
it's a weird time where kids are like fighting in
wards and smoking cigarettes at age nine. Yes, yes, but Elvis,
that's weird. Dude. He's dad. He's not listening. He could,
(03:35):
oh gosh, he could. He could be in here right now.
I'm here, lunch box. You're up, raise ran. If you've
ever dined and dashed, I've never dined no one.
Speaker 5 (03:46):
All right, Well, there's this place ricks on the River
in Tampa, Florida. The owner was tired of dining dashers,
so he installed sixteen security cameras.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
And over the last two years.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
If you dine and dash, he puts video you on Facebook, says, hey,
you know this person, let them know they dined and dash,
and numerous customers have returned to pay their bill.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
So he takes it down, begging him to take the
video off. Aias that's awesome, hilarious, good job, Amy, what
do you got?
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Okay, So there's an airline that's testing out adult only zones.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Doesn't sound good. Sounds like a lot of people wn
get pregnant.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
No, that is they're doing is it's got a certain
section to.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Adult only zones.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
On my body right now that has I guess maybe
thicker walls and curtains to where no babies or kids
are allowed in that section. And the upgrade is only
going to cost people about forty nine dollars.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Wait, what are they doing in there?
Speaker 4 (04:37):
It's just that you won't end up with a crime
child or baby.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
And the way the plane where they have it equipped
is you're less.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Likely to hear them kidless zone. I said, I'm an
adult really because adult zones. What I see all the
truckers pulled off on the interstate adult only execs X
adult zone. Yeah, that to me is what adult zone
sounds like.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
But I get it.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
They're trying to cater to people who are like, I
can't fly with the screaming baby, right, I have screaming
baby next to me for the whole flight?
Speaker 1 (04:59):
How is that fine?
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Because I felt bad for the parent when the baby
wasn't feeling good. Yes, And I don't even have kids
to have that empathy, as you know. I just felt
bad for her because I was like, you know, the
dad doesn't want to have this kid?
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Is it dad and a baby? Dad's not doing it
and the baby doesn't feel good, and so I have
good headphones, so I just turned it up, but I
felt bad for the kid. Uh.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Finally, a woman wanted a labor at the Beyonce show
and stayed until the end.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Did she have the baby there?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Sarah Francis Jones went into labor while enjoying Monday's Beyonce
concert in Los Angeles. They documented their experience on social media,
and it shows her in a silver dress and headband,
dancing along with the music that's just to sit down
because labor pains. The video then cuts her giving birth
and delivery room with the proud dad holding the baby
as the concert went on.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
They were like, we're just gonna wait, We're gonna hold,
We're gonna hold. And when they did, they immediately out
to the hospital and the baby came out. Wow, New
York Post, there you go. And the baby's name is
Beyonce yeb stop. Which is Beyonce backward? Really no, it's
I struggled saying eansbeb I was looking as hard. Yes,
it is all right, thank you, we're here, We're ready.
(06:07):
Let's open up the mail bag. You friend mail and
we read it all the air. Its something we call
Bobby's mail bag. Yeah, hello, Bobby Bones. I alread a
gift shop in a small town. I think most of
my customers really appreciate the products I sell and the personal,
top notch service I strive to provide. Every once in
a while, I get a customer who cannot be satisfied.
(06:28):
It's rare, but it seems like one hundred percent of
the times. If this happens, the discruntled customer writes an
awful review of my business. By contrasts, I have hundreds
of satisfied customers who are totally happy with the business,
but they never write positive reviews. As a result, my
review rating doesn't always look the best because it's just
the bad ones. How can I get my rating to
(06:50):
reflect the real experience people have with my business? Signs
small business, Brian, This is the Internet in general. People
literally only write stuff and say stuff if they want
to complain. You don't have a lot of compliments being
passed out just for the sake of compliments. What you
have to do, honestly is encourage people to leave reviews.
And it does feel probably a little bit cringe and
(07:11):
be like, please write a review for me, But I
have found that I've written a couple of good reviews
where people have been like, hey, if you have a
few extra minutes, would you mind writing in review? It'd
really help us. That's it. Can you offer a discount
if like somebody writes a good review, they can approve
it and show me the review. Then it's a whole system.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Yeah, it seems like a lot, but they're the small businesses.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
They are affected.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Like my sister and husband have a little coffee shop,
and there's sometimes people if they have like one bad
experience and it's not even something that should be a
bad experience at all whatsoever. It was really the customer's
problem and they go and they do one star and
they leave a horrible review and it drops everything down,
(07:52):
and so it really can affect us a small business.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I would encourage people, if they look like they're positive
to write something positive. Hey, if you get a few
minutes with your mind writing a good review, it really
help us out.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
And if you do that enough time, some people are
gonna be like, yeah, some people don't even know. They'd
love to, but they don't really know that that that's needed.
But it's like, if you need help, ask for it
doesn't mean in this situation, in any other situation, because
if someone asked you for help, you would in a second,
you would help somebody. But we're always like, I don't
want to ask and be a bird, And well what
if people were like that to you, you'd be like, no,
they shouldn't. I want to help. So then why don't
(08:27):
you just take some of that medicine that you're given out.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
I also do think honest reviews are helpful, But if
you have one experience somewhere and then you're gonna like
take it to the internet and make them look really bad.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
When some people just have lives that they feel like
their lives sucks, so they need to also make sure
that the people's lives right.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
It's like, okay, well, at least have some sort of
you know, number for yourself of how many times something
goes wrong before you.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Go to inflict pain as a business owner. Can you
write your own reviews? Yeah, like just go in there
and you can. Every good review we have show podcast
is me creating an account. That's what he needs. Love lunchbox. Yeah,
Bobby's funny. That's all me. We got your gamemail and
we read on you air.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
Now let's find the code Bobby's failed die.
Speaker 1 (09:13):

like PBS too wow. So Bob Ross made one and
forty three paintings during his career on PBS Wow. The
majority of them are stored at the headquarters of Bob
Ross Inc. In Virginia, and his business partner says they
don't have any plans to sell them because it wasn't
only Bob's thing. That you can find some which I
(10:16):
found on eBay, Like, I'm not buying it, but that's
what I looked for. When it was like, let's find
fine art. All I knew was Bob Ross. That's your dude.
But he did eleven hundred paintings. Wow, the episodes he
was so good. Anybody have So.

The Three Musketeers candy bar, it used to come in
three flavors. That's why it's called Three Musketeers. It was
in the thirties, there was chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and hence
the name. But then they had to cut down during
World War Two due to rationing.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Going for one musketeer had let to go.
Speaker 4 (10:45):

Big guys, big bird eyes. There's a lot of people
that look like me, kind heart. Yeah. I like that.
He's in Sex in the City though. That's cool. Yeah,
good future. But that's not you. Yeah, dude, that's really
not you. What Amy he is?
Speaker 3 (21:17):
Probably his height too?
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Maybe oh small feller, well.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
No, raised out small. I think this guy maybe not.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
He's one point six six meters tall according to Google. Apparently,
I'm still googling UK over here. That's that, so thank
you for that. I'll be in Vegas tomorrow night at
the Virgin Hotel, a casino doing comedically inspirational. Would love
for you guys to come if you're in Vegas. He's
five foot five and a half. So if that's the
same size as.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Right, Wow, you're taller.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
I'm sick. Yeah, I'm like five six, Yeah, you know
what's like five six? Five foot five and a half. Right,
But if I let us keep doing this, I'm gonna
be five foot in a year. No, No, guys, well,
what you're letting us do is actually be honest about it.
I'm taller than five to.
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Five and a half him vouch she's five six for
the same exactly, you're fighting about.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
A half inches. No, what you can tell that.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
You find about a half inch all the time.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
One do you want to see my dramas something?
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Because you put.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Six foot and a half. You're right, But I wear
shoes and i'm six to one. Okay, No, only the
right shoes tho, because some shoes I don't hit six
to one. And I'm be honest with you.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Oh, by the way, I'm Virgic Casino in Las Vegas
tomorrow night. Bobby Bones dot Com Pile of stories.
Speaker 4 (22:30):
Parents who hope to raise kids smarter than you know,
the average kid need to do these two things. Sign
them up for a sports team and put a book
in their hand. Apparently that combination is no, that's school
kids are like. Honestly, for me, this probably resonated because
my son wants to try out for the school soccer team,
(22:51):
and We're spending so much time on homework that I'm thinking,
how how are you going to have time to play
school soccer? But now I read this and I'm like, Okay,
maybe I need to revisit because I think that soccer
could also give him different thinking skills and help him
learn other things.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Maybe.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Though for me, for example, it was more about learning
not thinking skills, but how to deal with adversity, which
is a massive part of being a success because in
school or in life, because you learn that things don't
always go your way, actually they don't, they rarely go
your way, and it's how you deal with that. So
I think that makes I think that made me a
(23:27):
lot more emotionally intelligent was I just was not a
good athlete until about tenth or eleventh grade, and then
I got rejected by girls all the time too.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
It was not on sech rejection, oh man. But I
learned how to deal with that. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
No, I think you're absolutely right. And they're saying the
cognitive skills you get from learning plays and your brain
memorizing things like that helps with when you're trying to
also memorize other stu.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
An instrument in their hand, like if you have to
pick though between See, this is so hard when sports
are an instrument and I never played an instrument.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I wish I'd have been in band just to learn that.
You mean, like guitar, it doesn't matter. I wish I
would learned music.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Yeah, something because I bought a guitar from a pawn
shop and then just bought a courts sheet at Walmart.
That's the only training, like classic training I've had. Yeah,
it's not like you got to tour the country playing music.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
Aw Now, I taw me man, I said, I mean,
I'm thinking back to those athletes, the football players in
high school that were in the marching band, and then
they would also play on the football team. They gotta
be killing it now.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Dan Hampton, who played at the University of Arkansas, All
American defensive player, he would play for the University of
Arkansas and then in his football pads, play in the
band and have to in college. I know in college.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Yeah, oh that's crazy. Then he went to play for
the Bears. Yeah, he would do. That's that's really rare. Yeah.
We have one guy in high school, Nick Butttani, But
that was it. He was the captain man and his
dad was the band leader. He was the band director.
What kind of had to then, and so he would
dominate on the football field.
Speaker 5 (24:44):
He wouldn't even go for the halftime speech out there
in his uniform, get some water, go back out there
and play.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
That's cool. I wish, yes, any of that stuff. Exposing
people to things just helps them learn.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
Well, this particular study just showed a school sports team
plus reading a lot will help.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
But that this will help.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
I think San Antonio has a school that is getting
a lot of backlash because they have this special pass
that they're giving girls if it's their time of the month.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
So what's the backlash though, Because before I say something
and I'd rather not, I'm checking my my calendar.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
I'd rather not get canceled today, So you go first, right, well.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
Because I mean I had weird feelings about it too,
because I'm like, why would parents be upset? Because you know,
bathroom privileges often get abused. Kids try to go to
the bathroom and they really don't need to, and then
that can affect girls that really absolutely do need to go,
but they can't be like, hey, this is what's going
on with me. And I think that it needs to
be figured out in a different way because the pass
(25:39):
is purple.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
I prove it.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
No, No, I'm okay with the.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
Pass, but somehow it needs to be like something else
because the problem is the parents are like, well, now
my sixth grade daughter.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Has to go up and ask for this purple pass.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
And when you see walk horn flying purple pass eater
that song, forever part.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
Of me just wants more discussion about it so that
kids get more familiar with it and this is part
of life and then it's not an awkward thing.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
There's no purple pass though. There should just be a
bathroom pass, and that should there should be an understanding
and people are gonna use every privilege and I would
rather it be abused than it not be allowed, right.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
I mean when I was in school here, I'm gonna
give you a and you've heard this woe is Me story,
but I think about it in instances like this. I
got free lunch because we couldn't afford to buy lunch
from school, so we had to go stand in a
different line.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
It was humilion. It's humillion, yea. They made all the
and they didn't go to a rich school anyway, but
still we were the poorest of the They made all
of us go stand in a separate line. It was huge.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
So there were times I just wouldn't eat because I'm like,
I'm not being embarrassed today.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Where not?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Don't don't cry for me right now, wait till the
second's over. But it just that we shouldn't have separated it.
There should just be a system where purple pass. It
should just be the bathroom pass. I'd rather somebody cheat
the system than not be allowed to go. I'd rather
somebody be free that's guilty from prison than somebody go
to prison who didn't do it.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
What about you separate all them poop pass p pass
now we're talking. Yes, yes, I didn't think about that nose. Everything.
Every bodily fluid has a different.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
It's like brown yellow.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
Wow, that's disgusting.
Speaker 4 (27:13):
Okay, well, I like that they're trying to make sure
that these girls get bathroom access when they need it.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
But we just and female products should be free at schools,
should be covered by our taxes. That should just it's
a natural thing. Everybody has. It should be covered.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
Which if you do have some people know this, but
if you have like an HSA card like we do here,
we can put money into it. I know not every
company has it, but you can use that at Target
or Walgreens or CBS. It'd be separate from everything else
you're buying, but you can use that.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
I don't know what that is, but I appreciate that
you have.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
An HSA card.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
Do you not use it because that like a health
it's called a car, it's called a Health Savings account safeway.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Okay, yes, right, well we need to.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Get your signed up.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
Tim McGall told a funny story of how record executives
back They would ask him to tweak a few things
in a song, and he would totally agree with them,
and then he'd come back a few days later with
the same exact song.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
But he'd tell them that he.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
Made the tweaks and they're like, oh, yeah, this sounds
so much better. And pretty much it was just that
the higher ups they just want to have a say
in something, and as long as they think you took
their advice, then they're good to go.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Class Hey, Classic execs and Classic. And I'm saying, okay,
I made me.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
That's my bile.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
That was Amy's pile of stewarts. It's time for the
good news. How much victorious Saddler.
Speaker 5 (28:38):
She's playing the lottery and she doesn't win, so she
enters her second chance lottery drawing where you scan the
ticket and they draw a random winner, and she got twenty.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Five thousand dollars. I never thought they really gave away
money in that one. I thought they just like took
your addresses and yeah, I thought they would spam you. Yeah,
give away the money.
Speaker 5 (28:54):
So she goes to lottery office, gets her twenty five
thousand dollars and literally gets done and there's a gas
station across the street. She's like, hmmm, pick five is
my favorite game. I'm gonna go do my grandson's birthday.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Boom boom boom. She won fifty thousand dollars. Wow, that's
pretty cool. Good for her, that's pretty cool. It's hard
for to tell the story. I know. That's why we've
made it. He had another one he picked out, but
somebody switched him out and made him do that one.
Speaker 5 (29:19):
It's like wow. She says she's going to Disney World.
Hey good, that didn't hurt you at all. It doesn't
hurt you at all.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
It doesn't affect your life any And is she give
you hope?
Speaker 4 (29:25):
No?
Speaker 5 (29:25):
No, it's a how can you win twenty five thousand
dollars and literally walk across the street by one ticket
and then like minutes later, minutes.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Later, Hey, I spend You just told me something good
and I like it.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
I spend many minutes going across the street to buy
one ticket.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
She's been doing it for years too. It hasn't worked
for her yet. Oh man, I love it for her.
She is a teacher. What does she do again? I
don't care. Oh maybe maybe I'm just a signing good things.
So she gets back she suit kitchen. Yes, we're happy
for her. Thank you. That's what it's all about. That
was telling me something good.
Transmitting Liza, Okay, around the room, bring me the news
story that tickled your pickle this morning. That sounds weird,
(00:21):
it is, but okay, what tickle you pickle? Eddy? So
I saw that Sophia Coppola, who is Francis Ford Coppola's daughter.
Who's Francis for He directed The Godfather. He's a huge director,
got it, like big big Curt his name, But I
don't know. I never seen Godfather, but yes, well this
is his daughter. She's done a few movies that you
may watch. But she's doing a new movie about Priscilla Presley.
It's called Priscilla, and it comes out in October and
(00:43):
it's supposed to be awesome, and it tells her side
of the story, not Elvis's, but her side of being,
you know, thirteen years old and dating Elvis and then
marrying him. She's still alive though, correct, which is cool
because she could say true or not true. Is she
involved in it at all? She's not part of it.
But she said that she did consult Sophia and they
talked about it. And okay, then I've seen she said
(01:05):
Sophia did a great job. She's already seen the movie.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Then I've I've seen some stories related to this that
I didn't know where related to this or she because
Elvis like started dating her when she was like fourteen, correct,
that's what she said she was. He was more like
lonely and just needed somebody to hang out with. I
mean that's a likely word. But still, you know, if true,
because Elvis was a weird guy.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Yeah, and he was a massive superstar then he get yes,
and that's what made him even weirder. He could do
nothing and there's no way said you can't do that,
you can't. So he was a superstar when he met her. Yeah,
it's creepy and it's awful. Well, he met her in
the army while he was in Germany, I believe. And
then he had the daughter of one of the guys
that like higher military guys, correct, and he had to
(01:46):
ask her like, hey, can she move to America with us?
A different time. But still I don't like it. I
don't like it at all. But it makes me if
that's true where he didn't do anything dirty with a kid,
that does make me feel a little bit better. And
she's saying that.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
I mean, right, she's tell me his age again.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Twenty four. No, I mean, like I hear you, it
was also nineteen fifty nine, and that's no excuse. But
I don't know what they were doing back then.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
It feels like everybody nineteen fifty nine was doing one
of those things where all horse pulls to pull in
the in the garden.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
No plow. Yeah, it's like everybody's plowing fields in dat
fourteen year olds.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Man, it's crazy. Back then doesn't sound good. Was that
your question?
Speaker 3 (02:24):
His age?
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Yeah? Yeah, I don't like it.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Yeah, I saw the article about how she was fourteen.
She said nothing happened, but I didn't know his age.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
When they got married, she was twenty one and he
was thirty two.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
They were compared.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Well had She had to leave her family and move
in with Elvis's family, and I think Elvis's parents her
parents her parents. Dude, technically where twenty four? He lived
with his parents, well, twenty they all lived together, they
all lived together. He was taking care of them. He's
very poor, Okay, so when he started making money, he
got the parents to move in with him. Elvis is
from he's.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
From Memphis, No, Missippi, that's right.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Yeah, if I.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Were if them Misissippi and everybody thought Elvius was from Memphis.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
G's where Graceline was. I'd be still offended. Yeah, it'd
be like people are like, no, Johnny Cash is from
Tennessee because Nashville. Now Johnny Cash is in Arkansas.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
I know, but I got there. I just dido quickly,
too fast.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Anyway, I'm excited about that movie. Yeah, me too. Now
that's really cool. Fourteen though in that's tough. It's weird.
But like people just get married at fourteen anyway back then,
but they were married over fourteen year old. I know,
I know, I know, I get it. But I'm just saying, kids,
it's a weird time where kids are like fighting in
wards and smoking cigarettes at age nine. Yes, yes, but Elvis,
that's weird. Dude. He's dad. He's not listening. He could,
(03:35):
oh gosh, he could. He could be in here right now.
I'm here, lunch box. You're up, raise ran. If you've
ever dined and dashed, I've never dined no one.
Speaker 5 (03:46):
All right, Well, there's this place ricks on the River
in Tampa, Florida. The owner was tired of dining dashers,
so he installed sixteen security cameras.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
And over the last two years.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
If you dine and dash, he puts video you on Facebook, says, hey,
you know this person, let them know they dined and dash,
and numerous customers have returned to pay their bill.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
So he takes it down, begging him to take the
video off. Aias that's awesome, hilarious, good job, Amy, what
do you got?
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Okay, So there's an airline that's testing out adult only zones.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Doesn't sound good. Sounds like a lot of people wn
get pregnant.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
No, that is they're doing is it's got a certain
section to.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Adult only zones.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
On my body right now that has I guess maybe
thicker walls and curtains to where no babies or kids
are allowed in that section. And the upgrade is only
going to cost people about forty nine dollars.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Wait, what are they doing in there?
Speaker 4 (04:37):
It's just that you won't end up with a crime
child or baby.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
And the way the plane where they have it equipped
is you're less.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Likely to hear them kidless zone. I said, I'm an
adult really because adult zones. What I see all the
truckers pulled off on the interstate adult only execs X
adult zone. Yeah, that to me is what adult zone
sounds like.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
But I get it.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
They're trying to cater to people who are like, I
can't fly with the screaming baby, right, I have screaming
baby next to me for the whole flight?
Speaker 1 (04:59):
How is that fine?
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Because I felt bad for the parent when the baby
wasn't feeling good. Yes, And I don't even have kids
to have that empathy, as you know. I just felt
bad for her because I was like, you know, the
dad doesn't want to have this kid?
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Is it dad and a baby? Dad's not doing it
and the baby doesn't feel good, and so I have
good headphones, so I just turned it up, but I
felt bad for the kid. Uh.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Finally, a woman wanted a labor at the Beyonce show
and stayed until the end.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Did she have the baby there?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Sarah Francis Jones went into labor while enjoying Monday's Beyonce
concert in Los Angeles. They documented their experience on social media,
and it shows her in a silver dress and headband,
dancing along with the music that's just to sit down
because labor pains. The video then cuts her giving birth
and delivery room with the proud dad holding the baby
as the concert went on.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
They were like, we're just gonna wait, We're gonna hold,
We're gonna hold. And when they did, they immediately out
to the hospital and the baby came out. Wow, New
York Post, there you go. And the baby's name is
Beyonce yeb stop. Which is Beyonce backward? Really no, it's
I struggled saying eansbeb I was looking as hard. Yes,
it is all right, thank you, we're here, We're ready.
(06:07):
Let's open up the mail bag. You friend mail and
we read it all the air. Its something we call
Bobby's mail bag. Yeah, hello, Bobby Bones. I alread a
gift shop in a small town. I think most of
my customers really appreciate the products I sell and the personal,
top notch service I strive to provide. Every once in
a while, I get a customer who cannot be satisfied.
(06:28):
It's rare, but it seems like one hundred percent of
the times. If this happens, the discruntled customer writes an
awful review of my business. By contrasts, I have hundreds
of satisfied customers who are totally happy with the business,
but they never write positive reviews. As a result, my
review rating doesn't always look the best because it's just
the bad ones. How can I get my rating to
(06:50):
reflect the real experience people have with my business? Signs
small business, Brian, This is the Internet in general. People
literally only write stuff and say stuff if they want
to complain. You don't have a lot of compliments being
passed out just for the sake of compliments. What you
have to do, honestly is encourage people to leave reviews.
And it does feel probably a little bit cringe and
(07:11):
be like, please write a review for me, But I
have found that I've written a couple of good reviews
where people have been like, hey, if you have a
few extra minutes, would you mind writing in review? It'd
really help us. That's it. Can you offer a discount
if like somebody writes a good review, they can approve
it and show me the review. Then it's a whole system.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Yeah, it seems like a lot, but they're the small businesses.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
They are affected.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Like my sister and husband have a little coffee shop,
and there's sometimes people if they have like one bad
experience and it's not even something that should be a
bad experience at all whatsoever. It was really the customer's
problem and they go and they do one star and
they leave a horrible review and it drops everything down,
(07:52):
and so it really can affect us a small business.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I would encourage people, if they look like they're positive
to write something positive. Hey, if you get a few
minutes with your mind writing a good review, it really
help us out.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
And if you do that enough time, some people are
gonna be like, yeah, some people don't even know. They'd
love to, but they don't really know that that that's needed.
But it's like, if you need help, ask for it
doesn't mean in this situation, in any other situation, because
if someone asked you for help, you would in a second,
you would help somebody. But we're always like, I don't
want to ask and be a bird, And well what
if people were like that to you, you'd be like, no,
they shouldn't. I want to help. So then why don't
(08:27):
you just take some of that medicine that you're given out.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
I also do think honest reviews are helpful, But if
you have one experience somewhere and then you're gonna like
take it to the internet and make them look really bad.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
When some people just have lives that they feel like
their lives sucks, so they need to also make sure
that the people's lives right.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
It's like, okay, well, at least have some sort of
you know, number for yourself of how many times something
goes wrong before you.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Go to inflict pain as a business owner. Can you
write your own reviews? Yeah, like just go in there
and you can. Every good review we have show podcast
is me creating an account. That's what he needs. Love lunchbox. Yeah,
Bobby's funny. That's all me. We got your gamemail and
we read on you air.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
Now let's find the code Bobby's failed die.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Yeah. It's a lovely, lovely, fun segment. It's fun fat Friday.
We'll go around the room. Everybody share a fun fact.
I live sometimes in a part of TikTok. That's Bob
Ross TikTok. Oh, that's cool. I watched one and I
watched the whole thing, watch the paint the whole thing.
Then I watched one where he brought us stats like
(09:34):
my son's also a pay his son's awesome. It's so
peaceful to watch Bob ros Paine. Yeah, that's awesome. It's crazy.
And then I started to look up because we went
to on our vacation looking at a bunch of art.
I don't know anything about art, but over in other countries,
and I'm like looking at Michaelangelo, start meek Alangelo and
Da Vinci and Rembrandt, and so I me, I google
how much for a Bob Ross painting? They're like sixty
(09:56):
thousand dollars. Really it's crazy, like ten too yeah on
like PBS too wow. So Bob Ross made one and
forty three paintings during his career on PBS Wow. The
majority of them are stored at the headquarters of Bob
Ross Inc. In Virginia, and his business partner says they
don't have any plans to sell them because it wasn't
only Bob's thing. That you can find some which I
(10:16):
found on eBay, Like, I'm not buying it, but that's
what I looked for. When it was like, let's find
fine art. All I knew was Bob Ross. That's your dude.
But he did eleven hundred paintings. Wow, the episodes he
was so good. Anybody have So.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
The Three Musketeers candy bar, it used to come in
three flavors. That's why it's called Three Musketeers. It was
in the thirties, there was chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and hence
the name. But then they had to cut down during
World War Two due to rationing.
Speaker 1 (10:43):

Speaker 3 (21:20):

Speaker 2 (21:26):
He's one point six six meters tall according to Google. Apparently,
I'm still googling UK over here. That's that, so thank
you for that. I'll be in Vegas tomorrow night at
the Virgin Hotel, a casino doing comedically inspirational. Would love
for you guys to come if you're in Vegas. He's

same size as.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Right, Wow, you're taller.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
I'm sick. Yeah, I'm like five six, Yeah, you know
what's like five six? Five foot five and a half. Right,
But if I let us keep doing this, I'm gonna

I'm taller than five to.
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Five and a half him vouch she's five six for
the same exactly, you're fighting about.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
A half inches. No, what you can tell that.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Oh, by the way, I'm Virgic Casino in Las Vegas
tomorrow night. Bobby Bones dot Com Pile of stories.
Speaker 4 (22:30):
Parents who hope to raise kids smarter than you know,
the average kid need to do these two things. Sign
them up for a sports team and put a book
in their hand. Apparently that combination is no, that's school
kids are like. Honestly, for me, this probably resonated because
my son wants to try out for the school soccer team,
(22:51):
and We're spending so much time on homework that I'm thinking,
how how are you going to have time to play
school soccer? But now I read this and I'm like, Okay,
maybe I need to revisit because I think that soccer
could also give him different thinking skills and help him
learn other things.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Maybe.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Though for me, for example, it was more about learning
not thinking skills, but how to deal with adversity, which
is a massive part of being a success because in
school or in life, because you learn that things don't
always go your way, actually they don't, they rarely go
your way, and it's how you deal with that. So
I think that makes I think that made me a
(23:27):
lot more emotionally intelligent was I just was not a
good athlete until about tenth or eleventh grade, and then
I got rejected by girls all the time too.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
It was not on sech rejection, oh man. But I
learned how to deal with that. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
No, I think you're absolutely right. And they're saying the
cognitive skills you get from learning plays and your brain
memorizing things like that helps with when you're trying to
also memorize other stu.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
An instrument in their hand, like if you have to
pick though between See, this is so hard when sports
are an instrument and I never played an instrument.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I wish I'd have been in band just to learn that.
You mean, like guitar, it doesn't matter. I wish I
would learned music.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Yeah, something because I bought a guitar from a pawn
shop and then just bought a courts sheet at Walmart.
That's the only training, like classic training I've had. Yeah,
it's not like you got to tour the country playing music.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
Aw Now, I taw me man, I said, I mean,
I'm thinking back to those athletes, the football players in
high school that were in the marching band, and then
they would also play on the football team. They gotta
be killing it now.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Dan Hampton, who played at the University of Arkansas, All
American defensive player, he would play for the University of
Arkansas and then in his football pads, play in the
band and have to in college. I know in college.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Yeah, oh that's crazy. Then he went to play for
the Bears. Yeah, he would do. That's that's really rare. Yeah.
We have one guy in high school, Nick Butttani, But
that was it. He was the captain man and his
dad was the band leader. He was the band director.
What kind of had to then, and so he would
dominate on the football field.
Speaker 5 (24:44):
He wouldn't even go for the halftime speech out there
in his uniform, get some water, go back out there
and play.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
That's cool. I wish, yes, any of that stuff. Exposing
people to things just helps them learn.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
Well, this particular study just showed a school sports team
plus reading a lot will help.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
But that this will help.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
I think San Antonio has a school that is getting
a lot of backlash because they have this special pass
that they're giving girls if it's their time of the month.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
So what's the backlash though, Because before I say something
and I'd rather not, I'm checking my my calendar.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
I'd rather not get canceled today, So you go first, right, well.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
Because I mean I had weird feelings about it too,
because I'm like, why would parents be upset? Because you know,
bathroom privileges often get abused. Kids try to go to
the bathroom and they really don't need to, and then
that can affect girls that really absolutely do need to go,
but they can't be like, hey, this is what's going
on with me. And I think that it needs to
be figured out in a different way because the pass
(25:39):
is purple.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
I prove it.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
No, No, I'm okay with the.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
Pass, but somehow it needs to be like something else
because the problem is the parents are like, well, now
my sixth grade daughter.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Has to go up and ask for this purple pass.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
And when you see walk horn flying purple pass eater
that song, forever part.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
Of me just wants more discussion about it so that
kids get more familiar with it and this is part
of life and then it's not an awkward thing.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
There's no purple pass though. There should just be a
bathroom pass, and that should there should be an understanding
and people are gonna use every privilege and I would
rather it be abused than it not be allowed, right.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
I mean when I was in school here, I'm gonna
give you a and you've heard this woe is Me story,
but I think about it in instances like this. I
got free lunch because we couldn't afford to buy lunch
from school, so we had to go stand in a
different line.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
It was humilion. It's humillion, yea. They made all the
and they didn't go to a rich school anyway, but
still we were the poorest of the They made all
of us go stand in a separate line. It was huge.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
So there were times I just wouldn't eat because I'm like,
I'm not being embarrassed today.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Where not?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Don't don't cry for me right now, wait till the
second's over. But it just that we shouldn't have separated it.
There should just be a system where purple pass. It
should just be the bathroom pass. I'd rather somebody cheat
the system than not be allowed to go. I'd rather
somebody be free that's guilty from prison than somebody go
to prison who didn't do it.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
What about you separate all them poop pass p pass
now we're talking. Yes, yes, I didn't think about that nose. Everything.
Every bodily fluid has a different.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
It's like brown yellow.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
Wow, that's disgusting.
Speaker 4 (27:13):
Okay, well, I like that they're trying to make sure
that these girls get bathroom access when they need it.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
But we just and female products should be free at schools,
should be covered by our taxes. That should just it's
a natural thing. Everybody has. It should be covered.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
Which if you do have some people know this, but
if you have like an HSA card like we do here,
we can put money into it. I know not every
company has it, but you can use that at Target
or Walgreens or CBS. It'd be separate from everything else
you're buying, but you can use that.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
I don't know what that is, but I appreciate that
you have.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
An HSA card.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
Do you not use it because that like a health
it's called a car, it's called a Health Savings account safeway.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Okay, yes, right, well we need to.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Get your signed up.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
Tim McGall told a funny story of how record executives
back They would ask him to tweak a few things
in a song, and he would totally agree with them,
and then he'd come back a few days later with
the same exact song.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
But he'd tell them that he.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
Made the tweaks and they're like, oh, yeah, this sounds
so much better. And pretty much it was just that
the higher ups they just want to have a say
in something, and as long as they think you took
their advice, then they're good to go.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Class Hey, Classic execs and Classic. And I'm saying, okay,
I made me.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
That's my bile.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
That was Amy's pile of stewarts. It's time for the
good news. How much victorious Saddler.

She's playing the lottery and she doesn't win, so she
enters her second chance lottery drawing where you scan the
ticket and they draw a random winner, and she got twenty.

Five thousand dollars. I never thought they really gave away
money in that one. I thought they just like took
your addresses and yeah, I thought they would spam you. Yeah,
give away the money.
Speaker 5 (28:54):
So she goes to lottery office, gets her twenty five
thousand dollars and literally gets done and there's a gas
station across the street. She's like, hmmm, pick five is
my favorite game. I'm gonna go do my grandson's birthday.
Speaker 1 (29:06):

pretty cool. Good for her, that's pretty cool. It's hard
for to tell the story. I know. That's why we've
made it. He had another one he picked out, but
somebody switched him out and made him do that one.
Speaker 5 (29:19):
It's like wow. She says she's going to Disney World.
Hey good, that didn't hurt you at all. It doesn't
hurt you at all.
Speaker 1 (29:23):

you hope?
Speaker 4 (29:25):

dollars and literally walk across the street by one ticket
and then like minutes later, minutes.
