Speaker 1 (00:03):
Transmitting what's up? Welcome to Wednesday show morning. All right,
let's start as we go around the room to hide everybody.
His dream is to never work another day. The good
news is he might have a four oh one? K

(00:23):
what'd you find out?

Speaker 2 (00:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (00:24):
I do, I have no update. My cousin helped me log in.
Yet we'll do it. We'll do it soon.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
But what's what's the hurry out? Looking? That's my retirement.
What's the hurry? You may not have one? Oh, that's true,
you didn't think about Will you please look? You guys
try to look today? Yeah? Did he even ask you, Mike?

Speaker 4 (00:38):
No?

Speaker 1 (00:38):
Oh my god? Hey hey no, hurry man, do your thing.
All right, So here's the deal.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Okay, so I hate it when companies mess up, but
it's also an opportunity to to be like, hey, what
can I get for this? When we were flying the airline,
you know, our luggage came through the baggage claim whatever
it came through the belt, we get it. It's sopping wet.
Oh your luggage, all our bags. We had four bags, dude,
they were drenched.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
Why do you think that is? Because it was raining?

Speaker 3 (01:05):
Oh and it probably stayed outside in one of those
carts or whatever and got wet, right, yes, So so
we get home, open the bags up, all the clothes
are drenched.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
Do you haven't cloth bags or something orcase?

Speaker 1 (01:18):
It's probably like the liner, like the zip liner. It
gets through that, right, Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:22):
Probably, Or they took a hose to and sprady because
you're root of the chechen show.

Speaker 6 (01:25):
I don't know either way. This is a perfect opportunity
to numb for free.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
So it took me back to the time when Lunchbox
and I were flying to Wichita and they lost his
bag and he's he made up the story I have
an important meeting today, and they gave him a voucher
for him to buy clothes. So I thought, what if
I made up the story and said I had an
important meeting.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
But don't make up a story, that's the problem. What
if you probably couldn't give away a lot of things
in life by line. But do you want to be
that person? Yeah, I don't. You just lied about Mike. No,
I didn't lie. You said Mike hasn't helped you. Yeah,
and that part's true, but you never asked Mike. That's
but you know, so you're saying, I would think you
could go to them if it really was a thing.
Let's say you landed in Florida and you had no

(02:06):
clothes and you had to get to somewhere and they're
all wet. Yeah, say, my clothes are wet. I have
an important meeting home. Nothing lost rum but even at home.

Speaker 5 (02:14):
Saying hey, I was I got home and I have
a business meeting immediately.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Like your house, you know, and electronic in there that
got wet, And.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Don't give HI my disk to a lie.

Speaker 6 (02:22):
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
If actually not making it up. I'm like, that's the only.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
Way you're telling me. One of those new apple headbands
with that vision you had.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
One, that's what I'm talking about, and now it's over
like ten drand and now it doesn't work.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
I would think you could get away with it, but
you probably don't want to do something you have to
get away with. You're right, You're right, Okay, did it
run anything though? It's just my clothes were all wet, Harry,
you didn't anything.

Speaker 6 (02:48):
Those clothes could have mold on them.

Speaker 5 (02:49):
Now that they set the luggage so long, I would
definitely need a new eddie.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
That's on you, that's between you and the g od
the man right. Some listeners think he's awesome, Others don't
think he's very funny. All he can think about is
making more money. It's lunch Bob.

Speaker 6 (03:05):
Yeah, guys, it's crazy.

Speaker 5 (03:07):
A couple of weeks ago, I mean a couple of
months ago, we all invested in these businesses. People came
through with what they said they were going to buy.
We never saw perfume bottles that we invested in with Abby.
So then someone got on the spilled the tea anonymous
and called her out for it, and she said, oh,
I have the bottles. I have the bottles, and here

(03:28):
we are three weeks later after that, has anybody seen
the bottle?

Speaker 1 (03:31):
Hey? Abby? Do you have the bottles with you up here? Okay?

Speaker 4 (03:35):
There?

Speaker 1 (03:35):
Can I see them?

Speaker 6 (03:36):
Okay, yeah, thank you. Finally I can see.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
We also need this palette. We all spent money on
your that's your project.

Speaker 6 (03:41):
Yeah we do that.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (03:43):
No, d hadn't helped me with.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
Thank you, Abby. You can bring them in. I just
want to see on my want to I.

Speaker 6 (03:49):
Want to touch them.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
No right now now, No, no, no, they invest he's out,
he didn't pay you. No, Oh, never mind them, I
just hold them. Who cares. Why do you do that
if you're not even in it. I'm in it lying?

Speaker 6 (04:06):
Did you get her to dollars cash?

Speaker 1 (04:09):
He's lying? Okay, he's lying? Then never mind. Why don't
we just walk down this road? I don't know. I mean,
I'll take a look at him after the show.

Speaker 6 (04:16):
Though, I'd like to see them too.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
But we need for you to start working on this palette.

Speaker 6 (04:20):
It's like stuff you said we were going to do
a thing.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
I said, that's a good idea. But you're still the
project manager, right, so let's do it. Let's you lead it.

Speaker 6 (04:29):
Okay, tomorrow, you know, Okay, we're gonna do amy.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
Are you ready to do yourself? Now that she's single,
she has something to worry about. She's self conscious of
her tailbone sticking out. Amen, okay.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Uh So I was thinking about little things that you know,
make me nervous that maybe you don't make other people
nervous at all. Like, for example, every time I travel
and you have to get on an escalator with your
luggage going up or down, I get I like freak
out And it's something that I do all the time,
Yet every single time I have to do it, I'm like, Okay, okay,

(05:02):
five two one, and I go and I get on,
and if it's a success, I'm like really proud of myself.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
I've been with you when you've lost the luggage and
it goes tumbling down and it hits people.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
That's probably why I have anxiety around it. But I'm like, gosh,
I wonder if everybody else like when they have to
do that, if they feel the nerves that I feel,
and they have to you know, really.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Like I don't because I keep pulling onto it.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
I don't go like, all right, you're on your own
because it has to like fit perfectly on to the
to the okay, but you still hold on to it,
and if it does fall you, it's in your hand.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
Yeah, I know, you're a little Bernie. If you come back,
you mean, I mean your mind to begin.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
So that's.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
My four year old who freaks out. That's mean for me,
it's pulling up. It's for me though it's right on Red.
I get nervous about it because the cars come from
all different directions. But secondly the people that just walk
across the street because sometimes that little white walking man
it goes whenever you can go right on Red and
you don't only see humans as well, or I don't

(06:02):
because my right eye doesn't work. Oh, I didn't think
about that. Yes, right on reds and that's probably something
that nobody else. Okay, we'll brag.

Speaker 7 (06:12):
No, I mean, I'm like, no, I'm glad I'm not alone.
Something so simple.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
I don't deserve that, Eddie anything, man, col let's boutch
you good?

Speaker 6 (06:20):
I'm good man.

Speaker 1 (06:22):
I'll get nervous.

Speaker 7 (06:23):
Okay, Wow, we'll okay.

Speaker 5 (06:28):
I'll open up to you. Every time I take off
on a plane. Like, if I'm on a plane, I
look around, I'm like, if the plane goes down, there's
the people I die with.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
Is that? But does that make you nervous?

Speaker 6 (06:38):
No?

Speaker 1 (06:39):
Yeah, Oh I get nervous on a plane. You'd like,
I don't know any people I'm gonna die with them,
I hate them all? Or I know who am I
gonna eat? Oh that's weird.

Speaker 7 (06:47):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
I have similar thoughts of like, okay, well this could
be it, but I guess I got to get home.

Speaker 5 (06:51):
So but I do get nervous that when I'm walking
with my three year old and there's an escalator and
he's gonna step, I'm like, is he gonna step or
is he not going to step? And I go and
if he doesn't go, he's gonna fall down. So yeah,
I hold onto his hand that way, Yes I can't. Okay,
all right, right, you're out. Buddy from Mountain Pine, Arkansas.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
He's a big fan of the color red and he
hates talking about when he's dead. Bobby Bones. Sure, thank you.
So Caitlin's grandmother said, hey, I have something for you
if you'd like it. We were in Oklahoma over the
thanks Giving me break and I was like, what is it.
She goes, I have an old radio. And I'm like, oh,
I don't really know how to feel about it, because
sometimes people are just like you're in radio, can you

(07:26):
fix my radio? And I'm like, nope, it doesn't work
that way. And so I'm like, oh, that's cool. I
didn't really know what it was. And so we go
over to her house and she's like, this was her dad.
So it's Kaitlin's great grandfather bought it in the thirties used,
So we have basically one hundred year old radio. One

(07:46):
it stands. It goes up to my like my sternum,
and you can see how my answer might try to
get it to work. Oh, by the way, I would
never leave the house with it plugged in. That plug
in looks like it's gonna explode it in. Yeah yeah,
but some of the stuff still powers up and it
still goes, but it doesn't work.

Speaker 7 (08:02):
Can't tune it, not yet.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
I tried to get it on Casey Kasem and we
couldn't do it. See the top of the top thirty
the Yankees, We're taking the third inning by storm. It
plays old stuff from then you listen to the Time
Machine time Radio Machine. Yeah, so it's awesome.

Speaker 6 (08:18):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
We're probably gonna try to get something to come out
fix it, but it's really one of the coolest things.
It was tough to get home because it's such an antique,
but we have one hundred year old radio, so I
have one of those. You know what I did to it.
I installed the Bluetooth speaker in it.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
I wouldn't want to do that, Eddie.

Speaker 3 (08:32):
That's cheating well because I spent like ten years of
trying to fix it and I never could.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
Yeah, I respect it too much.

Speaker 6 (08:38):
Yeah see, you took the guts out and just made
it a new pretty much old friend.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
Now what people do with cars. You know, it's like
you took an old man again much plastic surgery, and
you're like, look, he's still old, he just looks better.
It looked weird. Let's open up the mail bag.

Speaker 4 (08:53):
And reet all the air to pick something. We call
Bobby's mail bag.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
Yeah, hello, Bobby bones. My daughter is a sixth grader.
She plays basketball, she cheers, she's in culture club. I
just found out she's getting picked on, name calling and
kids saying things to her that I've been able to
help her navigate through for the most part. However, I
just found out that there are kids walking by and
pulling her hair, tripping her. I'm heated. I'm ready to
beat the kid's dads. Oh yeah, But I'm trying to

(09:19):
be an adult and deal what's the right way. I've
told my daughter the next time someone pulls your hair,
elbow them in the mouth. I like that. My daughter
is by no means perfect, but she has a huge
heart and always wants to help people out. I need
advice before I go off the rails and deal with
this in a way I probably shouldn't. What advice do
you have for dad? Signed angry Dad in Arizona.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
Yeah, so, probably wouldn't encourage her to elbow them in
the mouth.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
Yeah, I don't think so either. You don't know you
can defend yourself if you feel like you're in danger.
So they're pulling her hair back if she elbows a midpool,
it's just as someone who got the crap beat out
of them younger, the little squirrely person that punches the
bully usually gets beat up even worse by the bully.
That's that happens more times than I It's not like the.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Movies, and it doesn't seem like that's in her nature
to respond that way.

Speaker 7 (10:04):
So probably very uncomfortable for her.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
So if it's happening at school, my first move as
a parent is going to be to talk with the
school or her primary teacher since she's younger, and figure out, hey,
how can we work together to come up with a plan,
and what's your advice since you deal with these students.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
I would also say this that if she does feel
like she's being threatened and she has to defend herself, great,
you should teach her what to do and how to
do it. I just don't think somebody pulls you here
you need to start throw elbows, because then it's like,
well who started it? People are saying, who knows? It
just gets way muddle. It's muddle even a thing. I
don't know exactly, Eddie your dad, I see.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
I like Amy's approach, but I feel like if you
tell teachers or principle whatever, they're just gonna like do
I guess watch them extra a little more and then
maybe get get in the middle of it and then
at the whole point no, yes, but then the bully's
gonna find out, and then they'll be like, oh, now
you're like, you got the teachers on your side now,
but you're gonna have that though then the pulling. And
that's why I kind of like Amy's idea, but I

(11:04):
think it could get There's a possibility it could get
worse if you do that.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
What all sucks. So so I'm going to go defense.
I'm going to go like, retalit, pull the hair, punch
him back. Yeah, And then they go, we have to
suspend you two. We're sorry, we know my hair. I
know the truth and no, no, but that's okay, but
the truth still you have to miss school and make
up your work. I'm just saying I understand why you
would do that. And I get in this as you
need to do that, but it's not always the best

(11:27):
vigilante justice. That's why you don't go to a criminal
and start beating them up the street.

Speaker 6 (11:30):
You call a cop.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
Now, if a criminal is coming up to you with
a gun or knife and you do beat them up
and kill them, that's defense. But if they come up
and they just like drive by on a motorcycle and
shoot you with a water gun, and then you go
up and you drive and kill them, I mean, well
we're talking about pulling hair exactly. That's the water gun.
So dad, first of all, you should get involved, but

(11:53):
not physically like you want to. Don't beat up the dads.
Don't beat up the dads. And you can call the
other dad and be like, hey man, look this is
happening with your kid. What can we do to help
stop this? And you may see if you don't beat your.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
Right, you can't have certain expectations about how other parents
will be. You may get lucky and get a parent
that's like, wow, okay, yeah, let's work on this together.
You may get a parent that's like, you know, whatever,
my kid would never do that or not.

Speaker 7 (12:15):
Who cares. I don't care.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
If my kid does that, so just you know, no expectations.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
Also the fact that you wrote my daughter's not perfect
means you also know your daughters probably up to some
shenanigans too. That's tough. Nobody's an angel now. If people
get bullied all the time and that we hate that.
But nope, talk to your daughter too.

Speaker 7 (12:32):
So when you were getting bullied, were you up tosum
sheen innigans?

Speaker 1 (12:35):
I was just small? Yeah, I was just I was
just small. What did they say like that?

Speaker 7 (12:41):
I don't know why I did.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
It's not all but sometimes kids you bully because are
weird or different. Sure, sometimes people are mean and people
want to be mean back to them. Just get more
into it. Invest emotionally, invest intellectually, not fist actually, and
you were part as muddled. If it's actually manam.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
In the home that's where your kids can feel the
safest and get encouraged and lifted up and all that.

Speaker 7 (13:06):
So make sure to put in that effort.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
And if you do this effort and it doesn't work,
then she elbows in the mouth phone, then that's where
that go. That's what that goes. Okay, thank you, that's
the mail bag clothing We got your gammail and rain
on the air.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
Now it's fund to close Bobby's mail bag.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
Damn. Now Bobby bon't show public service announcement about Christmas,
all right, Amy, So if you're travel with gifts, don't
wrap them.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
Yeah, well, don't wrap them if you're flying, because you
never know if you might get pulled aside in security
and they're gonna be like, well, what's in here and
they have to unwrap all your hard work, and then
you're gonna have to rewrap them when you get there,
because I saw that happen when I was going through
TSA and someone's they were like, oh, but that's already wrapped,
and they're like, well, because I guess their bad got

(13:50):
flagged or you know, like even my daughter on this trip,
we were in a hurry too, and she got You know,
sometimes they just randomly pull people aside, you know, like oh,
random selection.

Speaker 7 (13:59):
You don't even have a re the to go through
your bag.

Speaker 2 (14:01):
And yeah, this person's gift was unwrapped with Oh that's
a bummer, because they spent all this time it looked
really pretty.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
You still risk it, though, because I feel like the
odds tore like one and seven.

Speaker 2 (14:10):
You get here, it just depends, like if you have
a way to wrap it when you get there, just
go ahead and save yourself in trouble because maybe you
spend time wrapping and then it gets undone.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
That's good, that's what.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
That's a good thing is What if you like check
the bags in do you have to like no checks?

Speaker 4 (14:22):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (14:22):
I don't know, because they still go through check bags. Yeah,
you do. You get a little tagging times like I
went through your stuff. I smelled J underwear. Do you
guys forget that? Yeah? Yeah, maybe it's just don't be
surprised if they want to go through your bags. Speaking
of Christmas, Hey, Abby, would you come up to the microphone?
Abby is our phone screener. She's also a producer here
on the show. And it's unfortunate for Abby. We drew

(14:43):
the names of the people that are buying us a gift,
and then that we're buying a gift. So Abby, who
are you buying a gift for?

Speaker 4 (14:50):
Mike?

Speaker 2 (14:50):
Dy?

Speaker 1 (14:50):
Okay? And that's that's fun and sweet. What a great
moment that I be yes, and you also will get
a gift and who are you getting a gift from?

Speaker 6 (14:56):
Guess who?

Speaker 1 (14:57):
Me?

Speaker 8 (14:58):
Leah lunchbox again.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
I promise you this is not set up. We drew
this as a legitimate pop What is wrong with that?
What is wrong with that?

Speaker 6 (15:05):
Abbey?

Speaker 7 (15:06):
Do you know what you got me last time?

Speaker 4 (15:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (15:08):
I got you a book Singing for Dummies, and it
was like used with the Yeah did.

Speaker 6 (15:15):
You end up getting singing lessons? Because I inspired you?

Speaker 1 (15:18):
But you could have got her any singing book. You
had to get her Singing for dummies.

Speaker 5 (15:21):
Well, singing for dummies they have it for everything. They have,
Accounting for Dummies they have. I think it was the
message you all say, why for dummies? They have all
sorts of It's a huge brand that helps.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
A lot of We're familiar with the dummies brand. Yeah, yeah, Abby?
So what are you proposing here?

Speaker 4 (15:35):
Well?

Speaker 8 (15:35):
I just think there should be like rules in place
for the gift. Okay, Well, so it should be good
and if it's not an actual, like valid good gift,
we should there should be a punishment.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
So you think there should be a body, a board
who decides if the person actually tried. I think good's
tough because you could try, but the person may not
like it.

Speaker 6 (15:55):
That's too bad.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
But do you think there should be a governing board
who decides if the gift was given with intentions of
Christmas spirit. Yes, yeah, not intentions of lunchbox to make
you look dumb.

Speaker 8 (16:07):
Right, because I already know he's going to do something though, there.

Speaker 5 (16:09):
Was no intentions to make you look Okay, I'm assigning
this board.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
It's for all of us. It's not just Lunchbox. The
board is going to be Scuba Steve. And that's all.

Speaker 5 (16:17):
Oh, just scuba, Like, I mean, I don't understand what
she's so upset about. I tried to get her something
that she was She's trying to pursue a singing thing,
so I was trying to get her something that would
help her improve her singing.

Speaker 7 (16:31):
That's not like a.

Speaker 8 (16:31):
Good gift though, Like I wouldn't get you like an
acting thing or something that.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Actually acting for idiots.

Speaker 6 (16:38):
You wouldn't pay for acting lessons.

Speaker 7 (16:39):
I mean, that'd be great I did.

Speaker 1 (16:42):
Here's the thing.

Speaker 6 (16:43):
All you do is follow the book and it gives
you a lessons.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
I think you know, you got a record deal.

Speaker 5 (16:46):
It's like learning to play guitar. They you buy a
book and you play the chords.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
Right, Oh, you're good at that, right?

Speaker 6 (16:52):
And how you're learning guitar you bought a book.

Speaker 7 (16:53):
No, I didn't buy a book.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
Well, then are there any other rules? The whole game
is it has to start with the letter S. That's
the thing. If it is a gift that is a throwaway,
or someone buys a joker to be mean, Scuba Steve
is a governing board and you'll be punished, and the
punishment will be three years no Christmas on the show
WHOA Let's go three years no Christmas and the first

(17:20):
all through winter no games on the show of Next Year.
Do you hear that? Lunch? Okay? Any other rules?

Speaker 7 (17:29):
What's the price?

Speaker 1 (17:30):
Should we do a minimal and a maxim or just
a minimal? Oh?

Speaker 6 (17:34):
I don't know who's getting me a gift.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
So lunch box for you, Scuba Steve.

Speaker 7 (17:39):
I think we should have a window.

Speaker 1 (17:42):
So what do you want the men to be?

Speaker 6 (17:44):
One hundred?

Speaker 1 (17:44):
No?

Speaker 6 (17:45):
Well then why ask me?

Speaker 1 (17:47):
Because I would take your feedback, but I can also
say no to it. I didn't say please tell us
and norm we're gonna accept whatever you say.

Speaker 7 (17:52):
He would not spend one hundred on me either.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
Okay, thirty minimal max? I don't I mean I don't
care about him?

Speaker 2 (17:59):
Mean you don't care about a max No, because he can.
Who got who's buying? Who's Bobby buying for Morgan?

Speaker 5 (18:05):
Yeah, of course, who's buying for you Amy?

Speaker 2 (18:11):
I don't Oh yeah, right, that'll be good. I'm buying
for you me.

Speaker 1 (18:16):
Yeah cool.

Speaker 6 (18:17):
I don't want to max so exactly, but hey, surely
just have to income now scale back a little bit.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
Only get one TwixT bar okay, so thirty minimal sounds good.
Bored of Christmas Spirit will judge if somebody gets a
bad gift on purpose, which is basically lunchbox Abby, and
that's it. Christmas Spirit can go back in right, Yeah great?

Speaker 5 (18:44):
You know you know what starts with s singing, Oh
my gosh.

Speaker 6 (18:50):
Yeah, that's all I know.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
You need your help saying Merry Christmas to everyone. It's
time for the good news, Bobby. This guy who lives
in Illinois and Michael. He's driving through Michigan and he's like,
I want to stop and get me a Michigan Lottery
Lucky for Life ticket. Right before he crossed the border.
I want to get one of Michigan before it back
to Illinois. He said, I'll take a single ticket for

(19:20):
the next ten draws, which meant they're gonna draw Monday, Friday, Monday, Friday, Monday,
that whole thing. Instead, the cashier gave them ten tickets
for one draw. Oh no, but why would you go?
Oh no, you know this tell me something good. I'm
playing the KA you know, like what am going through
right now? So Michael goes, oh, man, I'll keep these.

(19:42):
He didn't buy the other ones. He just kept all
ten for this one took comb three hundred and ninety
thousand dollars. He took the one time lump sum instead
of the twenty five a year for life. Oh so
he got three hundred ninety thousand dollars.

Speaker 6 (19:57):
Amazing.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
Wow, Payman's out over life. That's risky because then.

Speaker 1 (20:02):
I think, though, if you die, does it some of
it keep going to like a family member?

Speaker 5 (20:06):
Yeah, but you don't get it. You're saying, right exactly,
I think selfish. I'm with you, Amy, Okay, that's a
that's a cool deal. That's what about the times that
happens and the person never knows that they would have
won if they did? Oh yeah, unknown, but that right
there is a good story.

Speaker 3 (20:25):
Like one time we were in Vegas and I gave
my wife one hundred dollars to put on black and
she was talking to a friend. They weren't paying attention.
She put it on black thirty five, and so I'm
talking to my friend. I look over and the ball
spinning and go, hey, not black thirty five.

Speaker 1 (20:38):
Put it on black and she moved it to black.
It hit black thirty five.

Speaker 6 (20:43):
Yeah, yeah, no, no to the best party.

Speaker 7 (20:45):
Oh my god, how much would she won?

Speaker 6 (20:49):
Six hundred os?

Speaker 4 (20:49):
No?

Speaker 5 (20:49):
Then the best part is Eddie goes, you know how
we should make that up. We should put it on
red twenty one money it was just one yeah, yeah,
but you didn't put it. She was like, do not
do that, Eddie. Then edge twenty one.

Speaker 3 (21:02):
Oh my god, I'll never forget it, dude, that's why.

Speaker 6 (21:07):
Yeah, it was at the Blaggio.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
Never forget it.

Speaker 6 (21:09):
I can tell you the table you walk in. You
walk down the left hand side and it's at the
very end. It was the last table on the left.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
Oh my gosh, I can't believe the first part of it. Yeah, yeah,
there was actually money on it. The second one's like, oh,
we should do this, but then you don't. That happens
a lot. We should bet on this horse. We should
that first one.

Speaker 6 (21:24):
Oh it was on there and last minute Eddie swipes
it away.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
I mean, I said black about Black thirty five. Some
lotteries will pay a lot some of the winners that
stayed upon their death, while others will simply continue to
making nuity payments to the beneficiary. But like Amy said,
she doesn't care because she's dead. Thank you. That's what
I'm all about. That was telling me something good. I want
to go over and talk to Eric, who lives in Louisiana. Eric,
what's up, buddy? Just calling to tell Eddie how much

(21:49):
of an inspiration he is. Let's go home on even
thinking about going overseas or King Kun or that Turkey
is the hair Turkey. Yeah, I'm glad you brought this
up because I was just gonna waite, see if Eddie
brought it back up. I'm not bringing anything up.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
Well, it's your head, I know your hair, it's my head,
it's my hair, it's my conversations with my wife.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
It's my money though, yeah yeah, yeah. So what we
told Eddie was if he goes to Turkey to get
a hair transplant, I'd pay for it, or I'd find
somebody to pay for it. All in him and his
wife for him in lunchbox and whomever goes to Turkey
the country with him ten thousand dollars. Now, we'd pay

(22:30):
for it, cover it, we'd love it when he got back.
And that's the best place to go to get hair
transplant surgery because they do things over there that the
United States doesn't allow a lot of the really rich
soccer players. For what reason? Yeah, tell us why does
the US not allow it? But Kobe would go to
Germany and do blood transfusion STUFFO Kobe Bryant basketball player,
he wouldn't have wauch So it's it's not that they

(22:52):
it's worse.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
Yeah, the doctors are apparently some of the best. It's
just a better price. It's very skilled docs and they
do more specialized more.

Speaker 7 (23:02):
Graphs or wherever it's called.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
They allow more graphs to happen at one given time
than other places.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
It's like when you know somebody that'll legally take your
windows a little darker, right right, like you got you
gotta appreciate it, like that's not going to kill anybody.
It's actually better. Yeah, but you gotta know somebody. Well,
you talk to your wife about it, Yeah, I mean
she hasn't said anything since then.

Speaker 3 (23:21):
Oh she hasn't brought it up. No, she has not,
and so I don't know. Honestly, I don't know where
I'm at with this.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
I mean, I just, you know, not just like a yes,
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (23:30):
Every time jumping opportunity, every.

Speaker 3 (23:32):
Time I pull up the news, guys, guess what's on
the news and Turkey.

Speaker 1 (23:35):
Well, yeah, it's in the Middle East. But even if
they were giving away candy, Okay, well that's different than
Middle East Turmoil in the Middle East, and then either.

Speaker 5 (23:43):
Turmoil and where we live google turmoil and.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
There's turtmoil in every city. Hey.

Speaker 3 (23:50):
You know what, though, here's here's what really really like seriously, like,
I feel like I'm getting scammed. I get so many d.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
Ms of people saying, like my husband just did yes,
so many people you have to.

Speaker 7 (24:00):
No, it's it's possible.

Speaker 2 (24:01):
I'm getting a lot of dms to what what makes
that a scam?

Speaker 7 (24:04):
If anything, it legitimizes I've.

Speaker 3 (24:06):
Never heard of anyone going to Turkey, and then all
of a sudden, everyone's been to Turkey.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
But nobody's all talked about it. Yeah, they're just walking
around with their healthbody randomly go hey, man, I got
a lot of hair and I've been to Turkey. I
want to tell you all about it. No, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 5 (24:18):
And just so you know, when I google Turmoil and Turkey,
the only thing is they're in a financial crisis. They're
economic You misspell Turmoil, No I didn't. Is because they're there,
it's going to be cheaper. The money is down a
little bit, soady you get two hair tracks.

Speaker 1 (24:34):
Money's not an issue here, guys. We could do it
right there, you know, but you're not doing this. I'm
not paying for your hair transplant surgery down the road.
Why not? Because that's not a fun bit, and that's
not you getting to explore the world. I want you
to open your hands, explore the world. Put some stickers
on my suitcase. November twenty ninth.

Speaker 7 (24:51):
When does he need to know?

Speaker 1 (24:51):
By December fifteenth?

Speaker 7 (24:53):
Oh but and then when would the trip actually right?

Speaker 5 (24:56):
We can figure that out. I don't at first the
year Amy, we'll get them there.

Speaker 1 (24:59):
Our company is knocking the door to sponsor this. No,
I haven't even asked a single person because I can't.
They'll be like, yeah, we'd love to do it, and
then you're like, I'm.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
Out, I don't I mean, dude, it sounds amazing, right,
hair on my head sounds amazing.

Speaker 1 (25:11):
In Middle East in the winter, flying to Turkey beautiful
And a lot of people go to the Middle East
in the winter it's cold. Was that right?

Speaker 6 (25:16):
Yeah, that's where snowbirds go. I guess I.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
Always wanted to go to Florida and the Middle East.
I don't know. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (25:22):
I honestly, I'm fifty to fifty because I would love
hair on my head. I would love to have this
procedure done. And what do you do it going into
the middle Let your wife.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
Go with you?

Speaker 3 (25:30):
Or would you would you sound like one of your friends. No,
I'd have to go with a friend, like who's gonnatch?
Who would you want to take? Unless you want to
fly to the whole family?

Speaker 1 (25:37):
You would take your four kids? Did I would take
them to take wine boil over there. I don't take
them exactly. Okay, you haven't until the fifteenth. Okay, Now
we have Jamie on the phone, who was in a
federal prison. We were talking about male going into the
prison because Lunchbox wrote Todd Chris Lee from the reality
show chrisly Knows Best a letter. You're trying to get
him to put you on the list to come visit him. Correct,
but you won't, not yet. But then you found out

(25:59):
what you think is happening. You don't know for sure, right.

Speaker 5 (26:01):
Is that the warden is destroying his male so he
never never got my letters, so he doesn't know to
put me on the list.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
And you don't even know if the warden thing is true.
You just saw Chrisly's daughter put that on her instagrams. Correct, right, Well,
she wouldn't put out false bats, she would. I don't
know if this was that she would. Okay, So Jamie,
you were in the federal pen, would you tell us
about what's going on here?

Speaker 4 (26:20):
I can tell you that the mail is a disaster,
and there's a good chance that they did throw it away.
And I would say that because being a celebrity, he
probably gets a lot of it, and they have to
read everything before you get it. They open it and
they take the stamps off and make sure there's no
contraband in it, and blah blah blah. They don't want

(26:41):
to do that one thousands of letters for one guy.
Sig change the policy. All your male has to be
on white paper in a white envelope with no labels
and no glitter and no you know your kids can't
draw your pictures anymore, nothing like that. Some places have
gone as far as to photocopy the mail and give

(27:03):
it to you. You don't even get your actual mail.
Greeting cads are completely off the table. You don't get those.
They photo poppy them. If you're lucky. A lot of
times they don't even open the mail. They just returned
to send their on it and send it back to
your people, which is crazy.

Speaker 1 (27:19):
Why do they do that because they just don't want
to deal with it.

Speaker 4 (27:21):
Well, they're trying to stop the flow of contraband, is
what they say. I think it's just because they're lazy,
But that's why I've been in.

Speaker 1 (27:28):
Do you feel like contraband's getting through the mail even today?

Speaker 4 (27:31):
I wouldn't doubt it.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
When you were this way.

Speaker 4 (27:34):
We were locked down in the prison that I was
in because of COVID and so a lot of things
that had happened. There was a national lockdown, and every
federal prison in penitentiary was in their cell behind the door.
There was no inmate out, there was no mail, there
was no visits, there was no anything, and people overdosed
and died. So how do you think stuff's getting in?

(27:55):
But they're asking us, do you know where it's colling from?
You're asking the right questions asked. That's the wrong table.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
Yeah, I have a I have family, a lot of
decent amount of family that have been through the prison system.
So I'm still in prison and they have cell phones.

Speaker 7 (28:10):
So was he implying how it gets in if.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
They guards gards? Yeah? Ye, are you implying that, Jamie,
or are you just not implying rhetorically saying some.

Speaker 4 (28:19):
Stuff to catch your people with cell phones?

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (28:22):
Where is a cell phone coming from? Where do you think?

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Well, are the guards getting money from people outside? Like, Hey,
my cousin outside will take care of you if you
get it to me.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
Most likely they do cash app or whatever. But yeah,
that's that's pretty much how it works.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
How long were you in did you feel like when
you got out after fifteen years that you didn't really
want to be out or it was really odd or
sad or because I just saw Shawshank redemption and that
makes me think.

Speaker 4 (28:53):
That it was it was a little overwhelming because of
so much a change. I've never seen a smartphone, never
handle the smartphone in my life. Just on another note,
as far as you wanting to get on his visiting list,
the way that works is as an inmate, you would
have to send a visitation for the friend to handle

(29:15):
your family members. They fill it out and they send
it back to the prison. Now you can print online
and go onto the BP website and you can print
a visitation for fill it out and send it to
the prison that he's had and they'll process it, you
know what I mean. They'll let you know if it's

(29:37):
you know what I mean, they'll let him know that
you know, this guy or this girl asks to come
visit you and we approved her, and they'll put them
on their improved visiting list. And if they do, you
know what I mean, can they anything go up and
visit them.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Did you have people that visited you frequently on a
consistent basis?

Speaker 4 (29:56):
I was, I was on the other side of the country.
Go phone where I am here?

Speaker 1 (30:01):
So no, do you feel like you're rehabilitated as did
you learn anything in prison? Like did you get take
any classes? Like did you further your education at all?
Or what did you do?

Speaker 4 (30:14):
I tried to, you know, involve myself in as many
programs as I could that would help me to be
a better person.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
I can.

Speaker 4 (30:23):
I can honestly say that prison humbled me tremendously, uh
from where I was before. And you know what I mean.
I get up, I go to work every day. I
have a girl that loves me, and I have family
that loves me.

Speaker 7 (30:35):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (30:37):
I got a cat.

Speaker 1 (30:40):
The cat turns me off. I'm like, get him on kidding? Hi. Well,
I appreciate Jamie, you sharing your story with us and
you know, talking about it openly and also giving us
advice on how to get down there to say, see
Todd Chris Lely. You know that's huge, that's huge, Jamie.
I hope you have a great day. Yeah, keep up
the good work man, stay out of trouble. Sounds like
you are, and keep spreading the good message.

Speaker 4 (31:00):
She know what you're doing. We love it, all.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
Rightudd see later it's Jamie. All right. Well that's that's
that's good.

Speaker 7 (31:05):
I wonder I wonder what no I think he was.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
I think he was falsely accused. Yeah, I don't even
know what he did, but I don't really did it.
Lawyer got him. I have no idea of the System,
Man System got it all right. Here are your number
one songs for the week. Your number one alternative song
is new from Green Day. The American Dream is killing Me.

(31:28):
All these alternative songs are just bands from when we
were younger. I like the format is just what it was.
There's no there's nobody new as all the bands are
just well, let's do another record. It's Bleak and Green
Day and Food Fighters. The number one hip hop song
is Drake. Here's Rich Baby Daddy, Holy.

Speaker 8 (31:46):
Gay, Petty Gay, Rich Baby Daddy Gang.

Speaker 1 (31:49):
I'm read that I felt that Teta Gang, but she
Tata name. I don't feel that. Your top songs and
country music at number three, Dan and Chase save Me
the Trouble.

Speaker 4 (32:02):
Don't Choose.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
At number two, Jelly Roll and Laney Wilson Save Me.

in studio tomorrow, which would be cool. And Dylan Scott
at number one, can't have Mine, Fuck you girl. Those
are your number three two to one country songs.

Speaker 6 (32:29):
Amy's Pile of Stories.

Speaker 7 (32:30):
Have you heard of a nothing shower?

Speaker 1 (32:33):
My wife? Sometimes you have it showered in three days? Oh,
and I go, how do you know She's like, do
you not smell you? And I say, I haven't worked out,
so I don't. I liked I try to work out
five days a week, so I usually just have myself
trained those shower times. So that would be a nothing
shower in our house. And she does not like a
nothing shower.

Speaker 2 (32:52):
Okay, Well that a nothing shower is when you literally
get in the shower just to have hot water run.
Everybody are not in there for anything else. It's it's
a nothing shower. You're not cleaning yourself and you're not anything.
And a lot of people are taking them like mid
day to warm up if it's cold, to delay work
they've been procrastinating, or to take a moment to meditate
or cry in the shower before continuing with the day. Okay,

(33:16):
so in everything shower.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
Would be I can coast, well, everything shower, you're probably
doing lots stuff cleaning yourself. You're doing stuff today.

Speaker 7 (33:21):
Hold yeah, it's everything.

Speaker 1 (33:22):
Yeah, Yeah, I'm okay with that. I like it nothing shower.
It seems like it's probably wasting a little bit of
water in the electric like the water bill a great
place to sho just sit in the shower and cry
without water coming out that seems cold.

Speaker 7 (33:34):
Yeah, but I don't know. Water is.

Speaker 2 (33:36):
It's like a conduit to certain feelings and ideas. Like
you know, they say ideas come to you in the shower,
and it's.

Speaker 7 (33:42):
Because water is like flowing.

Speaker 1 (33:44):
Yeah, I hear you. So I feel like it's free
because I can't get my phone. Not that I'm like
I need my phone, but like I got nowhere to go.
So I have a lot of great ideas in the shower,
unless there's like a basketball game on, and then I'll
take my phone and I'll put it in the little
hole where the soap goes, now where my glasses while
I'm taking a shower, But then I have like two
minutes before they get super foggy. So it's all it's

(34:06):
a whole song and dance. But I do the opposite
of nothing shower sometimes. Go ahead?

Speaker 7 (34:09):
All right, So do you think that you were ready
to have children?

Speaker 5 (34:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (34:13):
I got a questionnaire for you.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
As in, I don't think I'll ever be quote ready,
as in no one's ever ready. You just do it
and for.

Speaker 7 (34:20):
Rear it out, figure it out.

Speaker 2 (34:22):
Okay, Well, I'm gonna ask you some questions. Do you
truly want the day to day of being a parent. No, okay,
wood parenthood fit your identity and lifestyle?

Speaker 7 (34:31):
No, okay?

Speaker 2 (34:32):
What would it take for you to say yes to
being child free or yes to being a parent?

Speaker 1 (34:38):
Calin going you want to do this now?

Speaker 7 (34:39):
Okay? What do you value most?

Speaker 2 (34:44):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (34:44):
That's good.

Speaker 7 (34:44):
And then what is the reason for having a child?

Speaker 1 (34:47):
Okay?

Speaker 7 (34:48):
Well, no, because you're interesting, don't you want? You want?

Speaker 1 (34:50):
Yeah, but I won't. I'm not just gonna go let's
have a baby because I feel like I'm gonacrew it up.
I'd like to have twins at once. Yeah, but I'm
not gonna go all right, I'm ready to go today
have baby because I I feel like, you know, fair
or unfair. I come from a fretty screwed up family situation,
so I feel like I'm gonna repeat those mistakes, even
if I know with my brain that's not gonna happen.

(35:10):
So I'm never gonna go like, all right, let's load
this thing up with the sperm and his egg rockin.
I got four kids and I never said that, Yeah
you did it?

Speaker 6 (35:18):
Never?

Speaker 4 (35:18):
Never?

Speaker 2 (35:19):
Well, I think you know something to take away from that,
whether it's kids or any other big life decision is
sit down and ask yourself important questions before moving forward
with anything.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
I mean, nope, no, just not like this, because I'll
never I'll be like no, no. Yes.

Speaker 2 (35:35):
Keith Urban was recently on Chris Angel's Talking Junkies podcast
and he said that if he hadn't gotten into music,
he'd be in jail.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
Keith Urban his country music. Chris Angel, why have we
not thought about that?

Speaker 7 (35:46):
That is very true?

Speaker 4 (35:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (35:48):
I just watched a whole Chris Angel from whatever his
show was back in the two thousands, while watching on TikTok.
Is you a magician?

Speaker 7 (35:55):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (35:55):
Yeah, Chris Angel, MindFreak. Yeah. It's the cheesiest most two
thousand and six things you could possibly It was awesome,
like he was levitating above the pyramid and he got
in a helicopter and there's a big light that shines
up and he's like, you know, in honor my dad,
I'm gonna levitate above this pyramid. My dad died, and
then so he levitates. Oh I did it. But it

(36:18):
got all this stuff leading up to us better than
the levitation because they didn't show too much to the levitation,
because I would have blown the trick if they get
too close to look at a little guy above a
pyramid away up there.

Speaker 7 (36:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (36:26):
Yeah, but Chris Angel and Keith Urban are this nobody's
ever seen him in the same room. I'd go check
the tape of that and see if there's a video
or is it one guy doing two voices? Keith Urban,
what do you like about music? Well, actually what I'd
like to stay is and it's somebody doing the same voices.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
Well, it led me to think, like, if you hadn't
gotten into radio, where would you be.

Speaker 1 (36:46):
Do I get to still do entertainment because I probably
would just be I take your pick. I'd probably just
be a hat comic on the road doing jokes. I'm
a hat comic now, but at least I now have
people that will come watch me for other reasons. He'd
be in the clubs. Oh yeah, I'll be terrible the deal. Yeah,
probably probably that not in jail, I don't think so.
I mean I probably not. If I was in jail,

(37:09):
I'd be awesome in jail.

Speaker 3 (37:12):
Hell, so you'd be the leader, right what you're saying, Well,
first I have to go in and I have to
probably like hold somebody's pocket for a while, which is fine.

Speaker 7 (37:20):
But you knew it would be leading.

Speaker 1 (37:21):
Yes, I'd have to go through those tough times if
holding somebody's pocket like an internship, and then I would
eventually take over.

Speaker 6 (37:27):
Yeah got it.

Speaker 7 (37:28):
Yeah, okay, maybe that's my file.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
Well that was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for
the good news.

Speaker 2 (37:39):
So there was this big adoption event at Chicago's Anti
Cruelty Society Animal shelter got changing.

Speaker 1 (37:46):
Their name but it's hard to say. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (37:49):
Twenty two dogs and thirty nine cats found forever homes
at this big event, but one dog didn't, a three
year old pit mix named Elvish. All these other animals
get adopted out and you're the only one left. So
the shelters made a plea out on social media to

(38:10):
find Elvis a loving home, and the story went viral,
reaching millions of people across the country. But guess who
felt inspired to adopt little Elvis?

Speaker 1 (38:19):
Lisa Marie No, Colonel Tom. Tom Hayes who played Colonel Tom.
You can't ask, you have to tell us.

Speaker 2 (38:26):
Awesome Butler, former Elvis impersonator.

Speaker 7 (38:30):
And Elvis got it and so it seems super cool.

Speaker 2 (38:33):
Since his adoption, the puppy has settled into his new home,
takes walks, by the lake and snuggles up with his family.

Speaker 1 (38:42):
Christmas. We're without you all right, Thank you, Amy. Great story.
That's what it's all about. That was telling me something good.
