Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's time for the good news.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Jack and Erica have been dating for over two years now,
but Jack lives in Nashville and Erica lives in Houston,
so they've been long distance. They've been flying on the weekends,
back and forth, back and forth, lots of money, lots
of miles. So when Jack decided to pop the question
last week, he was I know exactly what I'm gonna do.
He talked to the airline United Airlines, said hey, I
want to do something special. So they got roses for

(00:29):
all the passengers on board, and when they landed in Houston,
Erica was there waiting. All the passengers came out and
gave her roses. She's like, what is happening?

Speaker 1 (00:38):
So funny? And then Jack comes out. He gets on
one knee and proposes.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
She said, yes, I mean I've never heard of anything
like that.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
I've not heard of something like that. That's so cool.
That's from a movie. Then somebody still. So let me
ask you this though.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
If you're connecting flights and you're like, oh man, I
do have like an hour?

Speaker 1 (00:57):
Should I help Jack and take a rose?

Speaker 4 (00:59):
You don't have to know you can run and you
don't know Jack, But most people are just gonna do
it because they're just getting That's not like that. I
like that. That's what it's all about.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Tell me something good.

Speaker 4 (01:14):
Got flipp me off?

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Yesterday?

Speaker 4 (01:15):
I was so I was driving.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
I rarely get flipped off.

Speaker 4 (01:19):
I'm not I'm not Amy, you're not You're not even
yeah driving you want to see somebody get fipped off
just following.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
Me down the road for a couple miles.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
That's an exaggeration, but yeah, yeah, Well.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
I'm driving and I'm in this lane and this guy's
in the lane next to me, and he wants to
get over, but a cars front and back of me.
I can't move the car's front back of me. So
he starts honking, and I'm like, are you howking at me?

Speaker 1 (01:44):
I don't even know. I'm just driving whatever.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
And then he takes this one night and flips me off,
and I'm like, I I didn't do anything wrong.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
So what you do? Nothing? I just kept driving. You
didn't flip my back.

Speaker 4 (01:56):
No, he was in a big truck, which meant a
big truck. Animals can fly, so two things definitely don't
do it. One probably had a gun and two probably
a small peep that makes them want to use that gun. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
but I just confused why he's slipping me off, Like
what was it? I could do nothing and add cars
in front and back, and if he wants to get over,
that's on him. You know what you do, You hit
your brakes and you slow down and you get behind

(02:16):
the car that's behind.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
That's all.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
I never get flipped off and hold on to that
one for a minute.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Yeah, that's not a good feeling. Man.

Speaker 4 (02:22):
I never wanted to like chase him down or fight
him or anything. I didn't have the road rage.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
Just have to have compassion for them, like I wonder
what's going on in their life and makes them react
that way over something so silly.

Speaker 4 (02:32):
Mostly it was like, man, it felt bad for him.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
He got it, got a little peepee, a little peepee.

Speaker 4 (02:38):
All let's go do the corny, Come on the mourning corny.

Speaker 3 (02:44):
Why did the ghost quit his job?

Speaker 1 (02:46):
Why did the ghost quit his job?

Speaker 3 (02:48):
They kept making him work the graveyard shift.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
That's good.

Speaker 4 (02:55):
That was the morning Corny. In the next segment, the
mail bag, the anonymous and what's happened is there's a
dude's trip. He wants to go. His wife is seven
months pregnant. She's like, you should go, but he's like,
should I go? We'll talk about that next.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
It's anonymous sin bar. There's a question to be man. Hello,
Bobby Bones.

Speaker 4 (03:27):
I have an opportunity to go on a weekend long
trip with a friend to a lodge in Canada. But
I don't know if I should accept because my wife
is seven months pregnant. She's pretty self reliant and I
know she wouldn't stop me from going, but I just
don't know if accepting the invitation would be insensitive to
her current condition. What do you think? Should I stay
or should I go? Signed adventurous husband. Now, before I

(03:48):
get to an answer in anyway, whatsoever, I'd like to
share a story with you about my friend Lunchbox, who
his wife was nine months.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
Pregnant well and nine yeah, nine, not very nine, very
nine nine, not seven yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:00):
You just you went on a little trip.

Speaker 5 (04:02):
I went on a dacher party to Las Vegas and
had a three day bender with my boys where we
drank and drank and drank and.

Speaker 4 (04:10):
Just forgot how pregnant. What she?

Speaker 1 (04:11):
I forgot maybe eight months? It was.

Speaker 5 (04:16):
Okay, go ahead, and then the day after I got back,
she went in labor, and so I was still like
recovering from vegas. So I was falling asleep in the
delivery room drunk and then hungover like exhausted. I mean,
we were staying up all nights, you know, doing the
whole thing. So my suggestion to you is go go.
This is your one last shot to go in and explore.

Speaker 4 (04:38):
It's not your one last getting married, and it gets
our last chance to go crazy. No no, no, that
was before you got in a serious relationship. So you
have but this, you can still do stuff like this forever.

Speaker 5 (04:48):
This is a once in a lifetime invitation. He said, Uh,
it's harder to go when there didn't say that. He says,
I have an opportunity on a weekend trip. Yeah, I
think you said up a lifetime in Canada.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
I think you heard that.

Speaker 5 (05:00):
Maybe I put down those words, but I think a
weekend is no big deal. It's harder when the baby
gets here. She's gonna need more help when the baby
is here than when the baby's not here. And if
she goes into labor, you get on a plane, you'll
be home and plenty of time.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
First babies take a long time to come out, Okay.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
So go. I'm gonna give advice with absolutely no knowledge
of the situation in anyway whatsoever. Uh, just human dynamics.
You know your wife, you say she's pretty self reliant.
Now you do say she wouldn't stop me from going.
You did not say she's encouraging me to go. There
is a difference. You know your wife. If she says

(05:36):
you should go, like and she's serious about it, then
I think you should go because we should allow other
people when we ask them, we should allow, we should
accept their answers. But if she's like, you should go,
but it's gonna, then don't. If there's a button there,
there's any sort of hesitancy with that, you should go.
I probably wouldn't go. However, if you ask somebody a

(05:58):
question and they say yes or no, you accept that
as the answer unless you're very close to them and
you know there's a hiden meaning behind it. But if
you feel like she really means it, then I think
you should go. But if she's like, yeah, I think
you should go. Just nope, if there's any it's just
or but nope. But if she's like, really go, I

(06:18):
think you can go. With seven months now, Eddie, you've
had you've had multiple pregnant wives. Excuse me, you've had
a wife that's been pregnant. Yeah, go ahead.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
So I mean, look, you're gonna be married to her
like you're married to her. This is your wife. This trip,
it's a weekend, a weekend.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
Trips come, you can take whatever weekend, do whatever, go
to Canada whenever you want.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Do not risk this.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
At seven months. Even if she says it's okay, I
don't know what self reliant means, like does she need
you around?

Speaker 1 (06:48):
No, but she maybe wants you are around.

Speaker 4 (06:50):
Maybe my answer she maybe does, but she maybe is like, no,
I really want you to go for you because you're
gonna be awake every night for we can. And I
know Amy feels like I do about and I struggle
with it probably more than Amy does. When people say
something like take them for what they say, unless you
feel like there's something hit underneath it, But you don't

(07:11):
you think seven months, don't go, just even if if
she wants you to. Look, people go into early labor
all the time. You all the time is where most
people what's not?

Speaker 1 (07:18):
Do you want to miss it?

Speaker 2 (07:20):
Like they're not going to miss Does this guy want
to miss the birth of his child.

Speaker 1 (07:23):
That is your opinion. You have more knowledge on it
than me.

Speaker 3 (07:26):
We're in the state, we're in the country is because
how far is.

Speaker 4 (07:28):
He from Canada? Edie's going He's going town in Texas.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Too far.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
You could have a plan to come back if need be.
But I feel like if you're going worst case scenario here,
which is no way to live.

Speaker 4 (07:41):
So she says he should go, go, he should go?
Why okay? Hold on, Amy's talking.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
Going because I think a weekend trip is still okay,
especially and I think when I hear self reliant, I think, like, Okay,
she's having a typical pregnancy. Some women maybe on bed rest,
and it would be a really bad idea to leave
her at seven months. But if she is that fine,
able to, you know, do things on her own and
doesn't need your assistance, then and she says take the weekend,

(08:09):
like Bobby said, with no like it's fine or butts,
then you should take them at their word and go,
because that's how we should all learn to communicate. I'm
not always good at it, like say what you mean me?
Would you say?

Speaker 4 (08:20):
But and I feel like when I say something, I
want people to take me for that. But when people
say stuff to me, I'm always like, I don't know,
and I try to accept from them what I'm giving.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
It's hard, but lunchboxs go ahead.

Speaker 5 (08:31):
There are only three percent of babies are born premature.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
You want to three percent.

Speaker 5 (08:38):
That's ninety seven percent that are going to be fine.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
You can go for a weekend. It's not a big
deal an months a.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Yeah, it's like you plan the odds when you're dealing
with the birth of your child.

Speaker 4 (08:48):
You play the odds of gamble every weekend for five
years with the money of your children.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
That's right, Yes, well I think about that.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
Yeah, I think it's fine.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
I think it's fine too. If you think she's fine.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
Unless she says it's fine exactly.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
It's not fine. Yes, Bobby bone shoe, Yeah, I got it.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
How to live to be a hundred?

Speaker 4 (09:06):
And this isn't one of those where you have to
be healthy, but how to live to be a hundred.
Never heard of this before. Secondly, we got a guy
who needs some advice. He's doing a job interview. I
love to help people out on these. I think if
I just got put a wig on went on to somebody,
I could get them Every job I can crush an interview.
I will give this guy the greatest advice and hopefully
you can use it as well. We'll do that next

(09:27):
he gets your balls on the ball show. Maybe it
does something to your body you're caring for.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
Yeah, you like start care.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
Of starts the over.

Speaker 4 (09:36):
Yeah, it's cool.

Speaker 1 (09:37):
I just made that theory.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
It starts the over. According to research, women who give
birth after forty are considered four times that's significant, more
likely to live to one hundred compared to those who
had children at a younger age. This finding is based
on studies analyzing and they talk about where people are
from ages all that. Some researchers theorize the woman who
can see later in life might have better overall health

(10:01):
than genetics anyway, which allowed them to have a baby
later in life.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
Makes sense.

Speaker 4 (10:04):
I get that, which would also contribute. So it's not
having the baby that actually makes them live longer. It's
that if you have a baby at that age, it
probably means your body is younger than what your age is.

Speaker 3 (10:16):
Okay, yeah, got it.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
That's pretty interesting.

Speaker 3 (10:19):
Yeah see my brain went to, like you got your
working towards some things. You stay working because they say,
like when you retire, you kind of go downhill a
little bit older.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
Tomorrow, they'll die tomorrow. I would love to I'll take
that chance.

Speaker 3 (10:31):
An active mom and you're older, you're continuing to work.

Speaker 4 (10:35):
If they said if you retire, you'll die ten years
after you retire, would you still retire tomorrow? No?

Speaker 1 (10:39):
No, for the next ten years that you get to
live alive? No, no, no, okay, no, but give me
like thirty more years. That's probably what it'll be when
you retire. Anyway.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
Maybe that's so I could still maybe have a baby
and live to one hundred. Yes, you could maybe have
maybe only because doctors couldn't ever figure out why we
couldn't get pregnant, Like there wasn't a specific it's her
problem or his problem. It was problem.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
I'll tell you now. I didn't want to say it
for a long time. But sex, they tell you about
that to do it. I mean, that's how baby happens.
You don't just get married and want to again. I
know this is a weird place to say it, but sex, Okay,
sex does that. Yeah, I'll tell y'all, I'll tell you all.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
Tell me that.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
I know. I know. I'm sorry. It wasn't my place.
It wasn't my place, but I cool sex. Okay, all right,
I'm gonna play this song out. Here's a voicemail.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
Go ahead, Hey, Bobby bones in a reader tomorrow.

Speaker 4 (11:37):
Been with a company for ten years going up from
a merchandiser to a silk position.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
Do you have any feedback or everybody?

Speaker 4 (11:47):
I'm sorry everybody.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Yeah, you got it here.

Speaker 4 (11:49):
So first of all, you've been a company for ten years,
you need to highlight that. They already know it, but
you need to highlight it.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Anyway.

Speaker 4 (11:55):
If you don't sing your praises, your praises will not
be sung, especially when they're talking to one hundred people.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Say you love working for this company. The reason you
want to move up.

Speaker 4 (12:02):
In this company is because you love this company so much,
and that's obvious by my ten years with this company.
What I would also do, and not just if you've
been with the company for a long time, when you
go into a job interview, learn a lot about the company,
because when people come in to be interviewed, if you
actually know about the company, not just about your job,
but about what the company does, how well it does,

(12:25):
some great things about it, that's going to impress the
crap out of whomever is interviewing you, because people don't
normally do that extra bit of research that has to
do with something that's not really about them.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
So if you go in, you're like, I've been here
ten years.

Speaker 4 (12:37):
Here's the things I really love about the company, and
some things i'd like to be a part of with
the company that I haven't yet. Like, if you know
things about the company and you show that you're invested,
that's going to go so far. Next up, you want
to tell your prospective employer if he's the one hiring you,
if he's the one that's going to be your boss,
which is kind of the case here if I hire

(12:57):
somebody that usually work for me. This is one money
I use this with people. It's so money I don't
even want to share it because I want to still
be able to use it.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
But this is what I'm gonna do.

Speaker 4 (13:09):
I'm gonna give you one of the most powerful chips
that I've ever invented, created and used. You go to
this person who's hiring you, and you say, hey, look,
obviously I want the job, I love the company, whatever,
but I want to do such a great job that
you get celebrated because you made a good hire, like

(13:30):
I want I want to do so good that you're
the hero.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
That's good man, that's good. It's all. That's it.

Speaker 4 (13:39):
I just give everybody free money. Everyone's writing there because
you made it about your goal.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
Is to make them look better.

Speaker 4 (13:50):
Make then I want to be so good that they
end up giving you a raise because oh, you're the
guy that hired him and he has such a good job.
Like my gotta start writing chexts for yourself because you
use that.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
That's it.

Speaker 3 (14:02):
But then you better perform.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
Who cares you have the job?

Speaker 4 (14:05):
But still you know what I'm saying, Okay, Like that's it.
It's like, my goal is to make you look good.
I'll do that sometimes like TV stuff. I'll be like, like,
I got one goal. It's to do such a good
job that they make an executive with the company because
they're like, if he can do this, they and then.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
They're thinking like, hey, I do want to be executive
for this?

Speaker 4 (14:24):
Well they're already thinking that, right, and it's like, oh,
now I got somebody to tell here, what do you
what do you see here? That's money, dude, No, it's
my hand, eat out of it. Oh exactly, that's my
trick eat none in my hand.

Speaker 3 (14:39):
Like if we told you that, like our job is
to make you look.

Speaker 4 (14:43):
That's what that would say. This Yeah, uh, the easy one.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
Smile. This is for everybody.

Speaker 4 (14:50):
Smile. Smile, Smile, Smile, Smile, smile, smile. It's the most
most fundamental, simplest thing. People don't do it. They go
in through they're going to be serious, or they're nervous. Smile, smile, smile, smile, smile.
There you go, got you smile. It's so important to
look like you're likable, even if you're not. You have

(15:11):
to be likable for someone to want to hire you.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
If you're not likable, do you know you're not?

Speaker 4 (15:15):
Yeah, it's a great question. It's not that you know
you're not likable. If you're not likable, you mostly don't
like other people.

Speaker 3 (15:22):
Therefore your you're not you know, you probably know you
don't smile.

Speaker 4 (15:25):
You if you're someone and you're like I just don't
like people, and you think you might be likable, you're not.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
Well, guys, why don't we just ask someone lunchbox, I'm likable, never.

Speaker 4 (15:34):
Smiles, and then I would. If it's a sales job,
you're changing your job specifically here, I would go in
and TikTok has a really good thing.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
Read a little bit on contemporary.

Speaker 4 (15:47):
Sales tactics, because he's gonna be like, what would you
do in this situation?

Speaker 1 (15:50):
The old one will sell me this pin oh the
Wolf of Wall Street. Yeah, this is the old one.

Speaker 4 (15:54):
They don't wanly do that one anymore because everybody knows
all the tricks, and mine was I grab it, stab you,
and I kill you your money and go to Mexico.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
How about that?

Speaker 3 (16:02):
That's all you would answer that, That's.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
What I would do.

Speaker 4 (16:04):
If they asked me that, I'd be like, then I'm
out of there.

Speaker 3 (16:07):
So on TikTok, they have potential questions that you might get.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
No, they have really cool sales tactics.

Speaker 3 (16:14):
Yeah, okay, that's what I mean.

Speaker 4 (16:15):
Yeah, to like talk to people, Like when you call somebody,
it's never like hey, are you free to talk? It's like, hey,
is this a bad time? And there's a whole difference
in how you approach it with just those words because.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
It's like manipulation.

Speaker 4 (16:26):
Well, you're sure communicating in a way that could possibly
be affecting how someone thinks of manipulation.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
It's a bobby bone.

Speaker 4 (16:38):
So the Apple Watch can do some cool things and
things I'm like, I can't believe the Apple Watch can
do that. There are some things now the Apple Watch
can do. I'm like, I cannot believe the Apple Watch
can do that. And somebody on the show, I might
just buy them an Apple Watch for this reason. On
It's wild what the new Apple Watch can do. Okay,
we'll do that. And then also, you know, sometimes you're like,
I'm you get a file, you lock them out. This

(17:00):
happened on an airplane with pilots. Oh yes, I'll tell
you about that too. Next you're on an airplane, imagine this.
One of the pilots is beating on the door, going
let me in. Sometimes one of the pilots has to
go to the bathroom, so one of the flight attempts
will go sit in with the pilots. So two people

(17:20):
are still up there. But imagine the pilot she's like,
let me hella. That's what was happening because the male
captain locked the female co pilot out because they got
into a fight. It's a ten hour flight. They were
flying and went to the bathroom and she couldn't get

(17:40):
back in and was not allowed to get back in.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
What a jerk?

Speaker 4 (17:45):
I don't you don't know what she did?

Speaker 1 (17:46):
What I don't know. I'm not jerking anybody. Yeah where
if she spit at him? Yeah, we don't know.

Speaker 4 (17:52):
His self imposed solitary confinement caused a tense standoff. It
was finally resolved after senior crew members persuaded the captain
over the ino and her condle at the pilot back
in John, just John, look, you're gonna get in trouble
when we land Come on, just let her in.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
It's awkward, and he said there going, No, I.

Speaker 4 (18:11):
Won't do it. Yeah. Then when they landed, he got
in trouble. Sure, I wonder what happened. I need to
because they know because that it's all heard in that
room in the box.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
Yeah. Oh the black box. Oh yeah, yes, I've heard
about that. You always got to recover the black box
for this. We recover the black box. Yeah, you think
they were Dayton?

Speaker 3 (18:31):
We need I know. It was like, was she trying
to touch him?

Speaker 4 (18:33):
Interesting? No, I you went, was she trying to touch him?
I would think he was trying to touch her.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
I originally went, I was like wait, but then I
realized I was being a little bit sexist. Assuming it
was him, So then what if he felt uncomfortable and
he's like, I just had to set a boundary.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
I don't feel I was sexist at all.

Speaker 4 (18:53):
I went with he was trying to touch her and
she was like, stop touching me, and he locked her out.

Speaker 1 (18:56):
Then, oh, because guys are creeps.

Speaker 5 (18:58):
Oh oh, I took it as they were dating and
they were flying together and they got in a fight, like.

Speaker 4 (19:03):
Turn left here, I know how to get there. Leave
me alone. No, we need gas, No we don't. Its
on you. It doesn't mean we're gonna go in.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
One of those like a car, Go left, no?

Speaker 4 (19:13):
Right?

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Yeah? Yeah, locked her out?

Speaker 4 (19:16):
Hey, got her? Got her? Got her? What was that
showing Apple Plus where they got in a flight?

Speaker 1 (19:21):
You liked that?

Speaker 4 (19:22):
Eat your's elbow was?

Speaker 1 (19:23):
Oh yeah, hijack, it's pretty good. It was a real
good one.

Speaker 4 (19:26):
Yeah. If you guys haven't seen that in Apple Plus,
go check that out, hijack because they it's a whole
thing too on the airplane, but they weren't fighting about
being touch The Apple Watch can do some pretty cool stuff.
I've never used it to do stuff like I got
in a car crash and someone saved me, or I
got in a bike wrect and someone saved me. But
those commercials say it happens or my heart gets to
a point, Like I know somebody who has a heart

(19:47):
issue and when the heart gets to a certain point,
it alerts them.

Speaker 1 (19:50):
So how about this.

Speaker 4 (19:52):
The new Apple Watch can tell you when you're getting
a cold before you have it, the flu, even cod
days before it hits. I want to get lunch trucks
for them. Oh please, I want to put one on
both wrists and both ankles.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
I thought you meant one for him and then all
of his kids.

Speaker 4 (20:10):
I think I'll lose them though, but I just need
him to know.

Speaker 1 (20:13):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (20:15):
Some users are astounded by the device's ability to like
early signs of sickness, like again a cold or a flu.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
That's I don't even know how they do it, Like
just sitting on your wrist. Series ain't modeling above.

Speaker 4 (20:30):
It harnesses critical metrics taken over a week while the
user is asleep. If multiple metrics are outside your typical range,
you receive a notification along with context for factors that
may be involved, Like, Okay, this is happening, but is
it because are you on any sort of new medication?
Because that would adjust what they say, elevation changes. But
it can tell you, basically based on your body and

(20:51):
what's happening inside of it, what illnesses you may have,
but you don't know yet because it takes a while
for them to actually exist.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
Crazy.

Speaker 4 (21:00):
So how about this, How do they know all that
from your wrist? And they think about that? No, but
I will take one from your wrist. How do they
know all of this stuff from your wrist?

Speaker 2 (21:08):
Well, on your wrist, you can do blood pressure, right,
and then you can do pulse.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
And so if anything like that.

Speaker 4 (21:17):
Watch as tight as the pul the blood pressure things
squeezes my arm, I.

Speaker 2 (21:21):
Wor Yeah, because like my brother, since he had a stroke,
he has a little like they push it on him.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
It does get tighter. But I mean maybe the apple.

Speaker 4 (21:29):
I can move it like this like my watch. Now.
Pretty crazy, I think when you get one, like secret,
stuff goes in your house.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
We don't know it. They spying on him.

Speaker 4 (21:41):
Yeah, that's how they really know. That's crazy. If they
can tell you a cold is coming every day, lunch
spokes walking to be going off all day, but can't. Sorry, dude,
we're not going to allow you in.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
You do bring a disease in about every weekend. I
think we really should get me one of these you
just want to free watch.

Speaker 4 (21:59):
So now I'm not only if he didn't want to
do it, would we have done it? Come on, tell
Me something Good. They're having a free hunted house at
their house.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
That's pretty cool.

Speaker 4 (22:09):
And then they're also doing something pretty cool with when
people come to.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
The haunted house.

Speaker 4 (22:13):
Lunchbox has this story next in our positivity segment called
tell Me Something Good.

Speaker 1 (22:20):
It's time for the good news Lunchbox. It's back.

Speaker 5 (22:29):
JD and Kat have said their hunted House will be
back for a seventh year. They live in Corpus Christi, Texas,
and every year they set up a hunted house in
their front yard free to the public. Come on, and
they get thousands of visitors every single.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
Year, and they just spend their own money on it.

Speaker 5 (22:45):
They spend their own money because they say, hey, it's
a free, safe place for families and teens to come,
and we will do it as long as we can
keep it in our front yard.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
It's pretty cool.

Speaker 4 (22:55):
And I say free and they got to pay their
lecture bill. Now, yeah, they're spending money to do that.
That's pretty cool.

Speaker 1 (23:01):
Get for that.

Speaker 5 (23:02):
I do wonder if my buddy Oscar, who lives in Corpus,
if he's ever been.

Speaker 1 (23:07):
Hit him and then tell us tomorrow we'll do it
had seven b segments time.

Speaker 5 (23:11):
And it reminded me of then my parents should have
been a tell me something good because them and the
Dollons one year they set up a hunted house inside
the Dollars house.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
Oh my god, this bed seven segments.

Speaker 5 (23:22):
Tomorrow they had all the kids come through and Halloween.
It was amazing. They said it was the hardest they
never did They only did it one year.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
Wow, that's even more impressive about this family.

Speaker 4 (23:32):
Yeah, oh yeah, I'm wildly bored, but I like that
first story.

Speaker 5 (23:35):
Yeah, j Andry and it was named a top Halloween
destination by the scare factor dot com.

Speaker 4 (23:42):
It's really cool that people are doing that with their
own time and money so other people can enjoy it.
Oh yeah, that's the whole key tex Oscar, right, yeah, yeah, yeah.
They let us know.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
We'll get right on it. I will, all right. Uh,
that's what it's all about. That was telling me something good.

Speaker 4 (23:57):
Time for the news Bobby's story. If you want to
get ahead in your career, who here it does me, Yeah,
it's a little too quick with feel like we're all
doing pretty good. I go, okay, we'll get out of here. Look,
get to going if you want to get ahead. Hiring
experts say to keep your work area neat. A survey
of more than twenty six hundred hiring managers found there

(24:19):
are less likely to promote someone with a messy workspace.
The reason clutter can apply your disorganized and behind at work.
It also gives off an impression that your current workload
is too much and you're not ready for a promotion.
Neatness implies you're on top of things and ready for
more responsibility.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
Career builder dot com.

Speaker 4 (24:37):
I often feel like people that cannot do the little
things do not oftentimes deserve the opportunity to do the
big things. And that can be anything from like how
you dress, how your hair is when you come to work,
how messy your area is, do you get here on time?

Speaker 1 (24:55):
Like?

Speaker 4 (24:55):
Those are all like fundamental things that I would look
at and go hmm. If they're crushed the little things,
why not give them a shot of doing the big things?
Much like football coaches, right, you practice, well, give you
a shot to play in the game. Like the worst
is when someone's like, no, I'm just good under the lights. No,
you're not good in the daytime. No, we're gonna give
you that shot to under the lights.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
Or when people say that's above my pay grade? Well,
do you want to stay at that pay grade?

Speaker 3 (25:21):
Like, but sometimes things really are above your answer?

Speaker 4 (25:26):
I say that though if I don't know the answer
where it's like, hey, this budget above my pay grade, man,
I have no idea what that even means.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
But I know nothing about that stuff.

Speaker 3 (25:36):
And also, yes, some decisions that are way above my
pay grade, I actually literally don't want those.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
But isn't that that chance bones to be? Like, I
don't know, let's make that decision right now.

Speaker 4 (25:46):
And if it is your chance and you don't know,
you take that chance. Odds are I'm not going to
get another chance.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
I'm moving on.

Speaker 4 (25:56):
It seems like Halloween used to be a lot more
fun back in the day. Would you guys agree with that? Why?

Speaker 1 (26:00):
Yeah? Like when you were a kid, yeah, or when
you were when you were twenty three.

Speaker 5 (26:04):
Yeah, Because you go to the bars and everybody's dressed
up and the girls are dressed up, and.

Speaker 1 (26:08):
There I think they thought twelve and you went to
twenty three.

Speaker 3 (26:11):
Yeah, because he's like thinking the naughty nurse.

Speaker 5 (26:13):
Yeah, the naughty nurse at the bar, or the sexy catwoman.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
Oh great question.

Speaker 4 (26:17):
Not to completely digress, did you ever let's say, find
someone on Halloween night, go make out with them they
were in sexy nurse whatever you're calling it, and the
next day be like, oh no, when they're not a
sexy nurse.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
They are not what I would normally have made out with.

Speaker 5 (26:33):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's happened, but that is a sexy nurse.
I mean it looks so good, and it's like, man,
would you have really a bad sexy nurse the next day?

Speaker 4 (26:43):
But I'm saying, would you ever send the sexy nurse
or you leave from the sexy nurse before she's not
the like before the carriage turned to the pumpkin before
the carriage, so before she's ugly. I just said carriage
and pumpkin. More like when she's not dressed like sexy
nurse anymore. Yeah, yeah, you realize you get before then
or you see it and you're like, okay, I probably
won't call her a game.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
Got it?

Speaker 3 (27:04):
Well, she might feel the same about you.

Speaker 5 (27:08):
Oh it was Santa Claus one year Santa CLA's sexy girls.

Speaker 1 (27:13):
You do funny, Yes, I do funny. I go for
the funny. And that's what the women like.

Speaker 4 (27:17):
If there's one guy who knows what women like, you're
looking at them.

Speaker 5 (27:20):
I mean, Telltoby, big hit, that's pretty funny. Easter Bunny
your face.

Speaker 4 (27:25):
If it's Tellotobby, it's cut out.

Speaker 1 (27:28):
And then the Santa you just have the big beer.
They don't really know, and I mean they know, they
just risk it, and they risk it for the biscuit.
Uh you calling that a biscuit. It's really weird.

Speaker 4 (27:38):
Uh So back in the day, Halloween a lot more fun,
especially in Victorian England, you could end up biting down
when they play the games on in any of the
treats like an apple, ever a needle. They put them in
there as games. A needle what they make cakes with thimbles,
dimes or rings and you would eat them and like
hopefully that's the game. If your cake had a new

(28:00):
needle or thimble, it meant you were destined for the
life of spinster hood, which meant a lot of time
to sew. But they put needles in food, a dimer
or ringment. You'd be blessed with a great life and
get married and get rich. Mental floss has that story
a lot more fun. Back when you eat a needle
and it wasn't watch out, they're putting needles in things.
That's like, watch out, there's a needle in there. Good
luck planning to live into your hundreds not very likely.

(28:22):
Researchers have some surprising news about the current human lifespan.
It is slowing down. Medical advances are yielding smaller improvements,
and there really aren't any more people living past one
hundred now than there were ten years ago.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
Like, there's still a lot of few, but.

Speaker 4 (28:35):
It's not more now than then, which only means about
fifteen percent of women and five percent of men might
reach the ripe old age of one hundred years old.
University of Illinois, Chicago. I'm gonna tell you the Jimmy
Carter stuff is hard to look at.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
Oh when they show pictures of him, ooh.

Speaker 4 (28:51):
He If you said, hey, guess and I was just
looking at him, and God bless him. He did a
lot of good for this country, built a lot of houses.
But if you said, guess, is that guy alive or
not alive? I would think not alive?

Speaker 1 (29:05):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (29:06):
I wish they wouldn't roll him out. They roll him
out and they're like, hey, he's going to vote.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
I'm like he is.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
Yeah, Look, it is cool that he's able to still
exercise his right to vote and he's going to vote
so much service to our country.

Speaker 4 (29:20):
I agree all that.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
It's like his pro is the last time he's going
to vote.

Speaker 4 (29:22):
No, no, I hear you about can he do anything?
That's what I'm saying, like exercise is right to vote.
I'm glad he voted, but I don't know what he
can do. And I don't know, but I just see
him rolling out and I feel bad for him. But
I still if I'm not only keep me alive if
I'm him, okay, because I went voting. I went for
a miracle drug bring me back. Maybe he is too,
but what a guy who is given his life, his
whole life just being so altruistic. His president only a

(29:47):
one term president, but then like has built so many
homes for habitat for humanity. I think like over the
years has given a lot would fly Southwest and people
would be like, holy crap, is that Jimmy Carter. Yeah,
I feel bad to seeing him in his pictures. Now,
a PTA president allegedly stole forty thousand dollars from my
elementary school, blew it on Amazon.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
Now that I'm like, oh, you can't do that. But
then when I read the second part and where were
they buying vet bills?

Speaker 3 (30:11):
Oh, I know, so they're desperate. They were desperate.

Speaker 4 (30:14):
It depends what the Amazon and vet bill relationship was. Also,
you can't do it. No, but how angry I'm going
to be as a judge, It depends on the vet
bild to Amazon ratio was a cosmetic surgery for the dog?

Speaker 3 (30:28):
No, probably not.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
I wouldn't think that would be the case. But let's
go through it.

Speaker 4 (30:32):
This Queen's Elementary School allegedly, this PTA person, Pilford at
least forty thousand dollars intended for kids programs, spending on
Vet bills, Amazon purchases and Uber eats. Oh well that
one I get to yeah. Athene A Gonzalez resigned September
twenty seventh after other PTA members accused her of stealing.
They uncovered the missing money. A copy of a ten

(30:54):
thousand dollars check reatten out to cash was placed on
the table, but nobody fessed up to writing it. Another
check was allegedly written out to Gonzales. The PTA announce
and it's October meeting. I just think if she would
have only done it for vet bills, it's still bad
and she's still.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
Get in trouble.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
But then like we hop in and get a gofund
me and then she spends like a few months in jail,
and then her animals are saved, and I'm happy and
she served her time.

Speaker 3 (31:15):
Yeah. I just don't know how people think they would
get away with it though, because like if she's president,
isn't there a treasurer, Or maybe she's the treasurer, she's everything.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
Maybe she's dictator of the PTA.

Speaker 3 (31:24):
Yeah, ever think about that, I don't know, seems risky.

Speaker 5 (31:27):
And now the kids don't get on go on a
field trip all because the forty thousand is gone.

Speaker 4 (31:32):
But there could be some animals saved, that's true. One
final story of all. Seeing examples of tiny homes. Currently
on Walmart's website, you can purchase your very own tiny
home for less than twenty thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
The Apple cabin.

Speaker 4 (31:42):
It looks like an iPhone how it's shaped, and it
goes for seventeen four hundred dollars. For that money, you
get a twenty foot by seven four foot by seven
seven foot. It's a prefab it's a tiny space. See,
I was doing this before it was cool.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
What the tiny house. Yeah, I lived in the camper
like a year and a half. Not the same.

Speaker 4 (32:01):
It wasn't a camp or shell. It was a small
camper that you would put on the truck you drag it.
Yeah there's no heat, right, it's a box fan. But yeah,
I was doing this for it is even then. You know,
I'm ahead of the time.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
But a question.

Speaker 5 (32:14):
You can buy this for seventeen thousand, but then you
got to buy land to put it somewhere, right, Yeah,
but you can put in the backyard.

Speaker 4 (32:19):
Literally, it's a bedroom. You could put it in. It's
again not huge. You could put it in your backyard.

Speaker 3 (32:24):
Oh yeah, and make it like a guest room guesthouse.

Speaker 4 (32:28):
Uh sure, there's enough for a bedroom and a TV.
I'm looking at it right now on its side when
the door opens, it kind of looks like an iPhone.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
They're not on purpose, but that's the news.

Speaker 4 (32:38):
They get those bobbies Stori
