Transcript

[Morgan]

It's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Just the bits.

[Bobby Bones]

What's up, everybody? I am doing the best bits from home because it is a snow day in Nashville. I hope wherever you are and wherever you're listening to this, you are staying safe, and thank you for joining. So we have a lot to catch up on from the first week of the show, back from our holiday break. And not only that, I have part one and part three this weekend with Mike D. And part one, we caught all up on everything that happened on our breaks. And if Mike did do a run club, which we had challenged him to, like, couple months back in 2024. And then also part three, we answered listener questions. So fun stuff on both of those. But if you're just here to get caught up, make sure you know that everything that happened on the show this week, then let's get into it. Lunchbox issued a public apology to a celebrity, AKA Kane Brown. Apparently, they saw each other over the break at a Christmas event, and Lunchbox may or may not have blown up.

[Morgan]

His spot number seven.

[Amy]

It's rare that Lunchbox says, I need to apologize on the air, so I'll just pass it over to him. Go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Something happened over the break, and I realized it later that, man, I probably shouldn't have done what I did. And so I want to come on here and apologize to Kane Brown.

[Amy]

Oh, God.

[Eddie]

What did you.

[Amy]

Go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

So I was out at this Christmas, like, event at the Opryland, and it's like, you go. It's like an ice sculpture, and you walk through it, and as I'm there, I see Kane Brown in line to buy tickets, and I'm not even thinking. I'm just like, oh, I know Kane. I see him in the studio. I talked to him a few times, and we're friends. I went up to. I was like, hey, what's up, Kane? How you been, man? And he's with his wife and kids, and he's like, oh, merry Christmas. How was your Christmas?

[Amy]

Nice guy.

[Lunchbox]

Very nice guy. And I walked away, and then I'm like, oh, man. I just probably blew up his spot.

[Amy]

Did you? Well, you know, if you did, because then other people were, like, asking for pictures.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I saw people start looking his direction, and I was like, oh, no. I wasn't even thinking.

[Amy]

Did you say his name when you went up to him?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I said, what up, Kane?

[Mike D]

Well, it's just Kane, though.

[Amy]

Yeah. But I may.

[Lunchbox]

I may have said, oh, Kane Brown comes to things like this.

[Amy]

May have Means he did.

[Lunchbox]

I may have said, kane Brown comes to things like these.

[Amy]

You said that Kane Brown comes to things like this?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Mike D]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

You blew up his fight.

[Lunchbox]

And so later on I was just like, man. And so I, I, I've been feeling bad since that day. So, Kane, I know you're just trying to do something with your family. And I remembered Bobby's rule, if they are with their kids, you're not supposed to bother them. But I wasn't trying to bother him. It was more like just saying hello.

[Amy]

But it wasn't. And I think if you know the person, that's okay. If you felt like you knew Cain, you knew have been like, hey, man, what's up? Good to see you. That's not bothering somebody with their kids. That's two people that know each other well.

[Lunchbox]

That's what I felt like. I felt like we know each other a little bit.

[Amy]

Did you think he knew who you were when you went up to him?

[Lunchbox]

I think, I don't know.

[Mike D]

Well, how was he acting? Did he treat.

[Amy]

He's coming in soon.

[Mike D]

Oh, well, know for sure.

[Amy]

Yeah. And he'll tell the truth.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Was he like. Whenever you're like, hey, big dog, you don't really know who it is. Was he like that with you or whatever.

[Lunchbox]

How's it going? Did you have a good Christmas? You know, he was there.

[Amy]

He didn't know who you were.

[Mike D]

Did he call you Lunchbox?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. I don't remember.

[Amy]

But yeah, but did you say you were Lunchbox?

[Lunchbox]

No, I didn't say that. I just assumed he knew who I was. But I did later feel like, oh, man, he probably didn't. And, you know, his wife was the one buying the ticket. She was at the ticket window, and he was standing there, may have been even holding one of his kids or his kid was standing next to him. I don't remember. But then I left and I was like, oh, man. I probably brought the attention he didn't want.

[Amy]

Kane Brown comes here.

[Eddie]

Did he have a hat on? What if he's all, like, dressed in, like.

[Lunchbox]

No, he did. He had a hat.

[Eddie]

Being incognito for sure.

[Lunchbox]

He had a hat on and scarf covering his face.

[Amy]

Okay, everybody, let's have a moment for Lunchbox. We're gonna be silent. He's gonna sincerely apologize. Go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

So Kane Brown and his wife and kids.

[Amy]

What's her name? Let's be respectful.

[Mike D]

He obviously, we all know her name.

[Lunchbox]

Caitlin.

[Eddie]

There you go.

[Amy]

Go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

Is that really it?

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Mike D]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, wow. I Was like, no, there's no way she has the same name as Bobby's wife.

[Amy]

So you just picked my wife?

[Lunchbox]

I just thought, like, that's the first thing that popped in my head.

[Amy]

All right, go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

Kane Brown and Caitlin and the kids. I know you were just trying to enjoy a time, a family time at a Christmas thing at the Opry Land. And I, not thinking just in the moment, went up and said hello and kind of blew up your spot. Hopefully you were able to enjoy the Frosty the Snowman exhibit as much as my family did. I was going.

[Amy]

I was coming. That's enough.

[Lunchbox]

You were going in. And I just apologize from the bottom of my heart and hope we're still friends going forward.

[Amy]

I don't think you need to apologize if you were actual friends to begin with. Oh, yeah. But thank you.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

There's real growth in 2025 for this guy over here.

[Lunchbox]

Growing up. Man, I apologize. My first apology of 2025 goes to Kane Brown and Kaitlin Brown, possibly his.

[Amy]

Last, if we know him. Let's go.

Not a hamper. His bathtub. And then finally, the studio performance of the year. Now we have a lot of people come by and perform and this got the most views on YouTube. It is a duo. Any guesses? Two people to perform a duo. When we had the duo in the song, it was not a humor. Riley Greene and Ella Langley was not a hit yet. It was just a viral song on TikTok. And I thought we got to get him in. And it turned into a massive song. But we can play. We have a live version, Ray. Okay, we're gonna play. This is our number one studio performance of the year.

I encourage you to look them up from our studio. Here's Red Clay Strays. Doing no one else like me.

[Morgan]

It's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two.

[Bobby Bones]

Over the holiday break, Bobby has been dealing with some drones at his house. Yeah, not the New Jersey drones. No, these are different ones, but they are drones nonetheless. And he wanted to share how he's been dealing with them and what his countermeasures are about to be.

[Morgan]

Number five.

[Amy]

So during the break, there were drones over my house. And I'm gonna start with that. And my wife's like, are those drones? And I'm like, don't be crazy. I'm the crazy one. We talk about drones, these big drones. And I'm like, those aren't drones. Night two. Are those drones? Don't be crazy. Those aren't drones. Night three, she's like, I think those are drones over our house. I'm like, they look too big. Look like airplanes. But they weren't moving. So I would then attach. I would look at the dot, and then, because it was nighttime, and I would put it up, like, against a tree limb to see if it would move. So if I see the dot and I have it in line with the tree limb, and I would just. It wouldn't move. And I'm like, maybe my wife's onto something better. Vision, smarter, prettier, all that. And so she goes, look out the window. The stupid thing was low enough. I could see it. It was a drone. Well, what color was it, Amy? What's like. What's my handicap?

[Eddie]

Oh, sorry.

[Amy]

Severely colorful color.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, sorry.

[Amy]

First of all, bad vision. Anyway. Only one good working eye.

[Eddie]

Our beautiful, awesome, amazing wife saw the color. She just yells, and I get that it's nighttime.

[Amy]

So she y. And it's low enough, though. It's like dusk. But it's like dusk plus okay, where it's dark. She's like, look, now you can actually see it. So I look out the window, I see the full drone, the four flop. And it's not like it's over our yard, like, watching us. Not that famous. Who cares? It's, like, over the neighborhood. And so the nerdy part about this, I'm on PlayStation playing with my buddy, and it has microphones, and I'm like, oh, my God, there's a drone. So here. My buddy Steve heard the whole thing. So I get on, and you can see all this on my Instagram, Mr. Bobby Bones, because I'm gonna put up footage today. I have. I. I don't have the really good footage, but I have footage to show that these things are just staying Still. So I'm like, I'm now convinced that's a drone. So I've got guns, and the first thing I think is, I'm gonna shoot this thing down. I don't want a drone over our house. Why somebody. If it's just somebody in the neighbor flying a drone over, that ain't gonna happen. So grab the shotgun because. Got buckshot or spread? Not a slug. Got buckshot. Probably should get bird shot, though. Smaller balls, a little more spread to it, whatever. So I grabbed the 12 gauge and I loaded up. Like, I better look this up first to make sure that I can nudge smart. And also, we live in a neighborhood. There are no gunshots in our neighborhood. And my wife's like, don't shoot. Don't shoot anything. I'm like, I don't want to. If a drone comes back by, I'm going to shoot it down. I go and I Google, can you shoot down a drone? FAA regulations. You cannot shoot down a drone for any reason. Makes sense. Can't be shooting up in the air. Okay. That's the first thing. So I'm like, what do I do? And they list out the rules. If there are drones flying above you, what to do? Number one, put up a sign that says, no drone zone. Okay, who's gonna give a crap about that?

[Eddie]

They read it.

[Amy]

Yeah. You think a person flying over with a camera's gonna be like, oh, yeah, you gotta dodge this house. Number two, they say, call the cops. You know who's going to laugh at me if I call the cops to go, there's a drone over us?

[Eddie]

Well, maybe not these days, because they're drones.

[Amy]

What are they going to do? They're going to show up and look up. At least they're going to. They're going to do this. Oh, my God, there is.

[Mike D]

You're right.

[Amy]

Okay, next up, they say that. And this is where. Oh, I don't know if I should spoil it. They say, you can launch a counter drone. I bought a counter drone. It's not at the house yet. I bought a drone to go up and fight this thing.

[Mike D]

You're going to have a war.

[Amy]

I'm sending it. I'm sending a drone up to fight this thing, so.

[Eddie]

But how are you.

[Amy]

I will put a net on it.

[Eddie]

Drive it, or pilot it.

[Amy]

I'm not going to sit on it.

[Mike D]

Well, you sit.

[Eddie]

You pilot it from the remote. You're going to. You're going to know how to go get, right?

[Amy]

Yeah, I have no idea how to use it yet. Here's the thing I worry about. One time at the mall, I bought one of those little helicopters.

[Mike D]

Oh, that was awesome.

[Amy]

Yeah, it's so fun. And Eddie came over to the house, and I'm like, dude, I bought a helicopter from the kiosk at the mall. And you get on and go. And it flies up. We put it in the tree in seven seconds, and it never came down. It's probably still up there in Austin, Texas. So I'm worried I'm going to do that. But I spent top dollar on a fighting drone. Now, it's not listed as a fighting drone, but in my mind, it's the drone for fighting. And I'm going to send this drone up, and I'm going to. Because it says you can launch a counter drone to stop drones. So I'm going to fight this drone. I don't know if it's the drone like this the government's doing, but they've been over our house for a week, and we're going to have a drone fight.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

You ever seen Top Gun one? I haven't seen two, but I've seen one, same thing. And that's what we're going to do. Well, I'm going full Tom Cruise on the drones.

[Eddie]

And your drone's not armed.

[Amy]

Not yet.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

I'm wondering, though, if I can put, like, a balloon in it with, like, acid or something. Oh. And then I hit. It burns, crashes.

[Mike D]

But what if it misses and then lands in somebody's house?

[Amy]

See, that's what I worry about. FAA doesn't allow that. I know. So that's been kind of the drama. Was that funny to you? That we're being harassed by drones?

[Eddie]

No, no, I was thinking of you. The acid dropping plasmoids in their backyard. That'd be messed up, walking their dog.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, but we're not worried about the gunshots, shells or.

[Amy]

I would rather shoot it down. That would be easier for me to shoot it down. But sometimes they're so high that you. There's no way I wouldn't shoot up, but. But this one was low enough where I could actually see it was a drone. I could see the forearms, the spinny arms.

[Eddie]

Are any of your other neighbors concerned?

[Amy]

I don't know my neighbors, but this.

[Eddie]

Seems like a good opportunity to get to know them.

[Amy]

No, don't care. They're probably in on it.

[Lunchbox]

They're probably the ones flying the drone.

[Amy]

I don't want to knock. And they open up and they're the grays, the aliens. And I realize that the aliens open Next door to me, people.

[Eddie]

No, no, no, no.

[Amy]

But I mean, it should be coming to today or tomorrow. I'm going to learn how to fly this drone. I'm sending up a counter drone and I'm going to. I'm bringing this thing down. And then if this one doesn't work, because I figure I'll fly this one to a tree and it won't come down. I'm buying another one, bigger and better. Will you somebody look and see if they have drones that shoot?

[Mike D]

Ah, I'm sure they do.

[Eddie]

I mean.

[Amy]

Oh, can I get one of the government. Yeah, can I get one of the government ones when they fly like in the Middle East?

[Mike D]

Oh, the real drone.

[Eddie]

The real ones where they're like, hope not.

[Amy]

Oh, my God. Oh, go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

They are one. A small arms drone that can carry a firearm. A 5.56 assault rifle, or imagine a machine gun.

[Amy]

I learned a drone on a shooting drone.

[Eddie]

This sounds like a terrible idea.

[Amy]

I agree.

[Eddie]

I don't like it.

[Amy]

So anyway, that's just. That's my big story.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man. This one's got a Skynet drone defense. A standard 12 gauge shotgun can go with it.

[Mike D]

That's cool.

[Amy]

How does it hold a shotgun?

[Mike D]

How does it shoot it?

[Eddie]

Safe.

[Amy]

I would rather it hook in it, like hooks on my shoulders and lift me up with a shotgun. Yeah. And I'm flying up with it. And then I shoot the drone down. But that's gonna. That's the plan. In case you guys are wondering, it will end disastrous. And this will cost me a lot of money and I might be in jail. But you can watch the. All the steps so far are up on my Instagram, Mr. Bobby Bones. Because it's happening in a lot of places. We talked about it before we went away for a break. Like the massive drone, by the way. I didn't say this. The drone's big. It's as big as my table here and my table. Mmm, six feet long.

[Eddie]

And when are you putting up the footage?

[Amy]

Well, no, no, I'm putting up the footage of like the laws and me talking about it. What I have at night because it's at nighttime and drones can't see at night. Which is the weird thing about drones. That's why he's flying over at night, because they can't see at night unless they're looking for something like thermal gas. These drones are at night. So when you record with your phone, all you can see are like a single light. But it's not an airplane because it's not moving. But I'm just show I may put it up. I mean, I can't do it right now, but.

[Mike D]

So how big is your drone?

[Amy]

It's just not that big. I couldn't afford one of the big ones yet.

[Eddie]

It's a pure counter drone.

[Mike D]

That's not good.

[Amy]

Mostly I'm on like a seek and like a monitor mission.

[Lunchbox]

Don't make fun of the surveys. It's David versus Goliath. You know what I mean?

[Amy]

People are talking about whole life size doesn't matter.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, sorry.

[Eddie]

In this case I'm not sure about.

[Amy]

Okay, now I've been told, so I'm going to stick by it.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

That's what's happening at my house. This could be a disaster. Or I could be the guy that saves America.

[Eddie]

Is that the storyline in your head right now?

[Amy]

In my head it's only going to go one of two ways. I'm in jail or I save America.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

And that's it.

[Eddie]

Keep us posted.

[Amy]

Oh, you'll know one way or the other.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

I'll be on the news one way or the other for sure.

[Morgan]

It's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two.

[Bobby Bones]

Everyone on the show shared their word of the year for 2025, what they're hoping to focus on this year. Mike D. And myself also shared ours on part one of the best bits, if you want to get into that a little bit more. And I think Mike D. And I have some very sentimental and important ones, kind of like Amy's. And then there's the guys.

[Morgan]

Number four.

[Amy]

So Amy told us yesterday her word of the year is alignment.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Amy]

And that's why.

[Eddie]

Because you want, well, alignment with me and mind, body, spirit. Like.

[Amy]

Yeah, but not generic.

[Eddie]

Who I am at my core.

[Amy]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Eddie]

Okay. And then also my posture. Alignment.

[Amy]

I feel like alignment. I said something like she likes where she is now, but she wants it to be straighter or something.

[Eddie]

You move my back.

[Amy]

No, like your life.

[Eddie]

No, just.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Because in alignment with my core values, like showing up as my authentic self.

[Amy]

Okay. We were all given the task of coming up with our word of the year. We also got this voicemail, just goes with the topic here.

[Eddie]

Morning, studio. So happy to be starting another year with you, my favorite people. My best friend asked me what my word of the year is for 2025 and I thought that was such a cool and insightful question. And I'm still working on mine, but I'd love to hear what yours are. So what is everybody's word of the year for 2025. So happy to be with you guys. Another year, another trip around the sun. Keep doing what you're doing. We love you.

[Amy]

Such a great call. Thank you for sending that. I guess you didn't email it. She called you, by the way. You can call us anytime. 877-77-Bobby. That's our number. Anytime. Your word of the year, Lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

Moving.

[Amy]

Go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

Because you know me, I love a double meaning. So I want to be making moves, like business.

[Amy]

Inside joke from yesterday. Guys, if you didn't hear it, Amy's like, you guys know me. You know I love double meanings. And we're like, we know you, but we didn't know that. Anyway, go ahead, Lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. So making moves. Business wise, careers wise. Trying to make money. Like deals. Get my hand in this pot. Get my hand in that pot. And then also.

[Amy]

Oh, they said pocket. I was like, that's stealing. Got it, got it, got it.

[Lunchbox]

And then also just like, like, exercise, running, biking, just.

[Amy]

No, you need one word. He said, and exercise. Got it.

[Lunchbox]

And like. Oh, you know what I mean? Like, don't. Like you do walking. Like, if I take a day off.

[Amy]

No, I work out three or four times. I saw Lunchbox yesterday that I walked on my off days, and he's like, that's stupid thing. Ever heard?

[Eddie]

No, it's not stupid. It's actually.

[Amy]

But I don't do it as my main. Oh, my God.

[Eddie]

But even if you.

[Amy]

I'm now a walker. I've been labeled a walker.

[Eddie]

Don't let him get to you.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, like if. If I'm not going to go run that day, maybe I go for a walk. I mean, I got moving. Always be moving.

[Amy]

Can I request of you you update us with what your semi plans are for this movement? Because you've been saying this for years and you never actually do anything.

[Eddie]

Business thing.

[Amy]

Yes, business thing. Now that you assigned a word to it, it's kind of like moving. You say your goal out loud, then you have to get to it. So let us know. And don't ask us for our money.

[Lunchbox]

No, no. Well, sometimes I will.

[Amy]

Okay. Eddie, your word.

[Mike D]

Yeah, see, mine's the opposite. Mine's slow. Oh, so I want to slow down. And not just like, physically slow down because, like, you know, I still need to move and whatever, but, like, I want to talk slow like you. We read these stories of people sounding smarter when they talk slow. I want to. And maybe not on the radio because I'll get boring if I do that.

[Amy]

But.

[Mike D]

But in life, I want to talk A little slower. Maybe think about what I'm saying before I even talk.

[Amy]

But you don't have to talk in that. Dyke.

[Lunchbox]

This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

[Amy]

No, no, no. He didn't judge you because you've never made a single move and you talked about it for years and he didn't judge you.

[Mike D]

Yeah, man. Let me have my word.

[Eddie]

Double meeting.

[Amy]

But yes, it's stupid. Both of you are stupid, though. But I want you to. I want you two to stay off each other. Go ahead.

[Mike D]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I. When I talk to people, I just want to talk.

[Amy]

But don't talk like friggin.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my God.

[Amy]

Star Trek.

[Mike D]

Guys, ask me a question. Bones.

[Amy]

Eddie, how's your day going?

[Mike D]

You know, it's pretty good.

[Amy]

No so far. Should be contemplating in an annoying way. That's what you just did.

[Mike D]

But doesn't it sound smarter, though, if you're like, my day? Pretty good so far.

[Amy]

Are you on audible? Reading a book? No, I don't like that.

[Mike D]

Why not?

[Amy]

I think you can talk slower if you feel like at times people can't understand. I should talk slower at times because I get so excited or even out in front of myself that I fly through words and I think for me, but I don't talk slower to sound smarter.

[Eddie]

I think thinking before you speak is wise. You're just pausing in between simple words.

[Amy]

You're just counting. Like when he sings, he counts fingers. That's what you're doing.

[Mike D]

You asked me how my day was. I don't think that hard about that. If you ask me a real question, I'd be like, let me think about that.

[Amy]

I'll ask you a question. Answer it, but slower than normal. But normal.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

Amy, how's your day going?

[Eddie]

It's really good.

[Amy]

Cool.

[Eddie]

Yeah. How's yours?

[Mike D]

You guys are too fast.

[Amy]

Slow down. Anyway, Eddie's a slow. Lunchboxes is moving.

[Mike D]

What you got?

[Amy]

I'm doing. It's not really a word.

[Lunchbox]

Stacking.

[Amy]

Dgaf.

[Eddie]

It's an acronym.

[Amy]

Yeah, Mine's an acronym. I'll say, let's do this. I'll say, don't give a crap, but DGAF is the acronym. I don't think in 20 years I've been. Ever been late to work? Have I ever, ever been late?

[Eddie]

No.

[Amy]

I think I want to be late twice this year.

[Eddie]

Why?

[Amy]

Because I don't. I dgf.

[Mike D]

I like that.

[Eddie]

But like, what's that gonna look like? What's late? Is it late? According to you're late or you're just.

[Amy]

Not gonna be late. I just think I've got.

[Lunchbox]

So you'll be 15 minutes early instead of 30 minutes early.

[Amy]

Exactly. I've gotten myself so tight. So tight that. Yeah, I'm just. I'm wound so tight that everything has. And it has been for 20 years that I gotta not be. I think it's restricting my creativity just a bit. So twice this year I'd be late. Oh, I can't even think about that.

[Eddie]

So your word could be loose.

[Amy]

No. Djf. Because I don't care about anything.

[Mike D]

No, loose is weird.

[Amy]

Loose is weird.

[Mike D]

Don't say that.

[Amy]

What's your word of the year? Loose. I got a friend you should meet. No, you don't. I'm just saying mine is DGF in just general, like I don't give a crap about. I'm still gonna like be dedicated and disciplined, but like just generally like, I don't give a crap.

[Mike D]

But Bones, only being late twice a year, is that really DGA?

[Amy]

Dude, I've not been late in 20 years.

[Mike D]

What if you're like 10, 20 days?

[Amy]

No, no, I've not been late once in 20 years.

[Mike D]

I know, dude, but if you really don't give a crap if I'm late.

[Amy]

Once this place, everybody would freak out. That's true. I think I was dead.

[Mike D]

But now we know he's dgaf.

[Amy]

Hey, who knows what's up with him?

[Lunchbox]

Dgf, if you want to be dgaf, just take a month off and don't tell us.

[Amy]

That would be called dumb as f. That would be irresponsible and lose job and get. Not get paid and we'd still come in or moving. I'd be moving, moving and slowly doing it slow. That's it. Let's go. We're here. Thank you Amy everybody for your words.

[Morgan]

It's the best bits of the week with Morgan.

[Bobby Bones]

Number two, over the holiday break, lunchboxes in laws were in town for several weeks staying with them and let's just say he was complaining a lot before the break, but nothing like he's complaining after. He had a list of complaints about his in laws that he wanted to share.

[Morgan]

Number three, lunchbox is going to do.

[Amy]

His complaints about his mother in law. Remember he said how long they stay? 2 weeks and they're gone now.

[Lunchbox]

They're gone. They came Sunday the like 18th and they left January 2nd.

[Mike D]

That's a long time.

[Amy]

It's two weeks long.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it's a long time.

[Lunchbox]

Long time to be up in the same house all the time.

[Amy]

But did they come with the, hey, we're going to actually watch the kids and give you guys free time? Like, was that the reason if they're coming to free you, or did you just feel tethered to them?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, let me see what free time I got. Oh, the women went to the movies and saw Wicked and we, the men, stayed with the kids. So no, I didn't have any free time where I got to go do my thing. It was tethered to him the whole time.

[Eddie]

Y'all didn't go on a date?

[Lunchbox]

Like, oh, no women went on a date to see Wicked. But me and my wife, we couldn't take time to go do something because she wanted to be with her family.

[Amy]

Here's his top four complaints about his mother in law. Stay. Number four. Number four.

[Lunchbox]

What day is Christmas, guys? What's the date?

[Amy]

The 25th.

[Mike D]

25Th?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, you want to know what day we had Christmas dinner? December 26th. Why? Yeah, because my brother in law wasn't coming till the 26th, and my mother in law was like, no, we got to have Christmas dinner as a family, so we need to wait for him to get here. Excuse me. He chose to come on the 26th. Guess what that means. He misses Christmas dinner. If he wants to be Christmas dinner, get here on the 25th.

[Amy]

Okay. Team Lunchbox or team mother in law? Amy.

[Eddie]

Oh, this one's hard, but I'm team lunchbox.

[Mike D]

You are?

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

She's at his house, their family, and.

[Eddie]

You can do a second thing.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm team lunchbox on this one.

[Eddie]

I am. This is hard for me because I understand wanting to include the brother in law.

[Amy]

You do a second one.

[Eddie]

It's your home.

[Mike D]

Yeah, but isn't it just a day? Like, no, it's Christmas day.

[Amy]

Isn't it just a day? Yeah, the day.

[Lunchbox]

Do you just cook a turkey on a random Wednesday?

[Mike D]

No, we did it on Thursday.

[Amy]

But it's like, why do Thanksgiving? Why not do it the November 2nd?

[Mike D]

Like she said, though, to have the family together makes.

[Amy]

But the whole family was there and they were. She was at his house. But then you do something else on the 26th. Okay, you know what? We'll go lunchbox one, mother in law zero. Go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

Thank you.

[Amy]

Next. Number three.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, apparently I've been doing laundry wrong my whole life. Every load of laundry I'd go do in the laundry room. She'd follow me in there and be like, ah, that's too much laundry in there. You want to do about half of that because it Won't all get clean. And you don't want to put that much soap because that's too much soap. It'll wear your clothes. I mean, it was like, I couldn't do laundry in my own house without having her. And she's like, Can I say an annoying mother in law thing is the clothes don't get clean when you fill the drum the whole way. Okay, enough. I'm just doing my laundry the way I want to do it.

[Eddie]

Hey, I'm team mother in law.

[Amy]

I'm team mother in law, too, Because I'm sure she one tried to help. He's exaggerating a bit. I'm sure there's some hyperbole here. And also, would you not just let her do the laundry then?

[Lunchbox]

It's my clothes. She ain't washing my clothes.

[Amy]

Why not?

[Lunchbox]

I wish she would.

[Eddie]

I mean, that'd be great.

[Amy]

I feel like that's the perfect opportunity.

[Mike D]

More clean than you do it.

[Amy]

That's annoying. That's annoying. But I feel like it was coming from a good place. Yeah, and you're probably exaggerating.

[Lunchbox]

No. Like, she was taking the sheets off the bed and she was gonna wash them. I was like, here, I'll do it. And she was like, oh, no, no, no, you won't.

[Amy]

Oh, my God. That sounds great.

[Lunchbox]

She was like, because you' in one load. I'll do it in two. And I'm right.

[Amy]

Then do it.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, Save one side.

[Amy]

I'm on her side.

[Eddie]

Yeah, definitely.

[Amy]

Next.

[Lunchbox]

Number two, parking. Let me tell you about parking, guys. When I go to a parking lot, what do I do? I burn the find the first spot I park, and I walk into the establishment. Oh, every time we went somewhere. You're really going to park this far away? There's parker parking spots closer up. I bet you could find that. Well, that's paid parking over there. Well, I see one right next to the paid parking that you could have parked at. Oh, look. See? Two spots over. There was a spot closer to the building.

[Amy]

It feels like you're already very annoyed with her, and anything she's doing now, you're, like, super dialed into. It's just awful.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, no, no. And so when we're walking back out of the building, she's like, well, if we had a parked over here, we'd already be back at the car.

[Mike D]

It's kind of annoying. Bones.

[Amy]

That's. That's kind of annoying. But how.

[Eddie]

But she's older. Is walking a problem?

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

She has two able legs.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

And also, she lies. He Lies a lot.

[Lunchbox]

I'm not lying.

[Amy]

I'm factoring in his.

[Eddie]

He's like, I mean, she has a cast on her foot right now, but what's the big deal?

[Amy]

Okay, give me number one.

[Morgan]

Number one.

[Lunchbox]

This one's gonna blow your mind, guys. You know you have bedrooms in your house. You have doorknobs on them.

[Amy]

Familiar.

[Lunchbox]

The last day she was there, she was like, you know what? It's just been bothering me the whole time I'm here, but I'm worried the kids are gonna lock themselves in the bedroom and not be able to get out. So we need to change all the doorknobs. So her and my father in law went to Home Depot, bought all new doorknobs for all the doors in the house and changed them.

[Amy]

How do you feel about the look of them, though?

[Lunchbox]

Before I follow up, I don't even know the difference.

[Amy]

Good. So you didn't. You weren't married to the first look of the doorknobs?

[Lunchbox]

No, they're just doorknobs. But I mean, it was just like, are we seriously. My kids are 6, 4 and 3. If they were going to lock each other in the door, they know how to open a door now.

[Amy]

I guess it's annoying that she's so loving and worried about your kids.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Like, is it not crazy that she went and changed every single doorknob in our house because she's worried the kids were going to lock each other in the bed?

[Amy]

She did. And I'm sure she checked with your wife.

[Eddie]

Yes, somebody had to.

[Amy]

Like, you drove up and your house was painted on the outside a new color.

[Lunchbox]

Their bedroom door. I already turned it around where the lock was on the outside so no one could get locked in. That was it. It was already done. But no, that is just not good enough. We had to change every single doorknob in our house so a kid couldn't get locked in a bedroom.

[Amy]

A little odd, but from a very loving place. And I think that has to supersede.

[Mike D]

Eddie, don't you think? It comes bones, from a place where, like, I don't trust you, so I am going to change all the doorknobs.

[Amy]

Okay, fine. But it's. It's out of love. It can be annoying, but it's out of love. It's out of love. I don't like. It's not a I'm better than you, which it may feel like to him, she's saying, I'm better than you. I know more. I think it's just generally out of love.

[Eddie]

I mean, and it happens. I'm 43 and got locked in my bedroom and it was awful. So I.

[Amy]

It's annoying. Yes. But I hope that you understand. It must. It's really nice to have somebody who cares so much that it's annoying.

[Lunchbox]

No, it's great. They care. But it's just like really? We've never thought about the doorknobs. The doorknobs, really?

[Amy]

If you'd have been like, I love these doorknobs, please don't change them and they changed them, then I would be. That sucks.

[Eddie]

But he acts like, you know, man of the house. Like, why didn't you just say no.

[Amy]

You'Re not changing because he's not the man of the house.

[Lunchbox]

No, no. Cuz here's the deal. Is it really worth fighting over a stupid doorknob? But it's like.

[Amy]

But then you're on the show, on a national show and scream about it and you know, shade your mother in.

[Lunchbox]

Law because I just thought it was strange.

[Eddie]

That's an investment too. Doorknobs are not cheap.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, you think they went and got expensive doorknobs?

[Mike D]

Well, they didn't.

[Amy]

Probably.

[Lunchbox]

They look exactly the same. They're gold little doorknobs.

[Eddie]

No, I'm saying door. If they replace every door knob that.

[Amy]

Adds up, how many?

[Lunchbox]

I. I don't. I couldn't even tell you how many.

[Amy]

He doesn't know. He doesn't care. Okay. God bless you, dude.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, so that was.

[Amy]

Two weeks is a long time for even your best friend.

[Eddie]

She hit on him though.

[Amy]

Because usually she does come on to him.

[Lunchbox]

Oh man, I don't even look at.

[Amy]

The answer's no. All right, we're done.

[Morgan]

It's the best bits of the week with Morgan. Number two.

[Bobby Bones]

While at Bobby's wife Caitlin's birthday party, Bobby and Amy learned a super incriminating story about Eddie and his wife being in labor. Yeah, it involved McDonald's and her driving herself.

[Morgan]

Number two want to do a segment.

[Amy]

Called Good story, bad story. And we're gonna start with the bad story. It's bad about Eddie.

[Mike D]

Oh no.

[Amy]

Yeah, you're not gonna like it. But we have a good story afterward to make it even again.

[Mike D]

About me too.

[Amy]

Yeah, good story, bad story.

[Mike D]

Okay.

[Amy]

And the only reason I made the bed up because you sound like such a jerk in this first story that I wanted to like make it a good part too. It's old though. Amy's the one that reminded me of it.

[Eddie]

Well, I was reminded of it cuz his Wife told the story the other day.

[Mike D]

Oh, no. I know this story. This is so not true.

[Amy]

Why are you getting upset?

[Mike D]

Because I know this.

[Eddie]

His wife told it.

[Amy]

Good story, bad story. Amy, take. Take it away.

[Eddie]

So she was in labor on her way to the hospital.

[Amy]

Do you think that mattered? Second child. What context does that matter?

[Mike D]

In case anyone's wondering.

[Amy]

Go ahead.

[Eddie]

Okay. Second child in labor. I don't really know exactly where Eddie is, but she's driving herself to the hospital, passenger seat. Okay, so wait, what? She was.

[Amy]

She's going into labor, and you're riding the passenger seat?

[Mike D]

Let me finish it.

[Eddie]

Okay, to be clear, I thought she was driving herself because he was nowhere to be found, but Eddie was hungry, so she stopped at McDonald's and got him a McMuffin.

[Amy]

You demanded a McMuffin as she's driving herself to have a baby?

[Mike D]

We got breakfast.

[Eddie]

Then she continued on her way to the hospital and then gave birth to their baby.

[Amy]

Two questions. One, why aren't you driving?

[Mike D]

Can I tell my side of the story?

[Amy]

Absolutely.

[Mike D]

So we had already gone to the hospital four times because she said, I'm having a baby. So the first time this happened, we were like, let's go. I drove. I didn't get breakfast. We rushed to the hospital. Ma'am, you're dehydrated. No baby. We go home. Second time, I'm having the baby, I get in the driver's seat, no breakfast, drive to the hospital, no baby. This is the fourth time. So I'm like, false alarm. If we're going to do this, you're driving. I'm going to get breakfast, and we'll get to the hospital. When we get to the hospital, turns out that's a bad move because we're.

[Eddie]

Having a baby, right?

[Amy]

So I don't know. We don't have kids yet. We're going to have kids someday. I feel like every time, even if it were 19 times, I would drive exactly. Like, they would never get to a threshold of. You cried wolf too many times. You're now going to drive. Prove it.

[Eddie]

Right?

[Amy]

Right. Am I crazy for thinking that?

[Eddie]

Not at all.

[Mike D]

I think I did drive to McDonald's, and then she took it from there.

[Amy]

You switched over.

[Eddie]

This is not the story I got. No, no, no. She told this story, and I'm telling you she was driving, and she went through the drive through to get it for him.

[Mike D]

I was shocked. When we got to the hospital and the doctor said, you're having the baby. I'm like, oh, no, I should have driven.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, but in reality, you do have time to go to the drive thru in most preg.

[Amy]

No, no, no, no, no.

[Mike D]

The doctor said the baby's coming out.

[Amy]

I don't think you risk it. I don't think maybe on the way back. Are you. Dude, that's hilarious, man.

[Mike D]

I mean, so half of the story is true.

[Amy]

No, you made it worse, though, when you said that she was driving because Amy didn't even know that.

[Mike D]

My wife loves driving.

[Eddie]

No, no, he made it worse for me when he said he was in the passenger. I knew she was driving, but I figured she was meeting him at the hospital.

[Amy]

That's bad too.

[Eddie]

No, we were that he was right there.

[Amy]

That's so funny. Only because four times it had happened. He's like, well, I will not do this.

[Mike D]

The fifth time, that was like, false alarm again. We're not rushing this time.

[Eddie]

Like, in my mind, he was at work and she was like, okay, I'll meet you at the hospital. That's why she had to drive. And now we know he was available.

[Amy]

I don't even want to do Good story. I like this. I just want to leave this as it is. We'll do it. We'll do it in the post show podcast. I'll give you a. I'll give a good story about Eddie. I just want to let this sit and simmer because that's so funny.

[Mike D]

Yeah, Stupid. She loves telling that story, though.

[Amy]

Also the fact that you're like, oh, God, this. This is the one that had to be real.

[Mike D]

You know what's funny too, is every birthday, every time my son celebrates a birthday, we tell that story again.

[Eddie]

Do you go like an idiot?

[Amy]

Oh, McMuffins for everybody.

[Morgan]

It's the best bits of the week with Morgan.

[Bobby Bones]

Number two, a listener asked Bobby to share his most awkward or worst interview moments, and he delivered. So Bobby shared the top three. We were even talking about a news story where during a live interview, a rapper, like, fired off a gun in his pocket accidentally. So, yeah, this is all in here. But more importantly, you're gonna hear the three most awkward interview moments Bobby has had while doing the show.

[Amy]

Number one, this guy accidentally shot himself during a podcast. Like, he, like, put the gun in his pants.

[Eddie]

Oh, my gosh.

[Amy]

Yeah, Here. The incident happened on a podcast called One on One with Mike D. Different Mike D than we have. His name is Too Low. He's a rapper. He accidentally fired his gun while reaching his hand in his pocket during an interview and finishes the episode anyway. But here's a clip of that moment Go ahead. And choices we got in life. Those were your choices.

[Eddie]

Oh, gosh.

[Amy]

Who shot who?

[Lunchbox]

Somebody got shot.

[Amy]

I hope. Y'all good? Everybody. Everybody good, I hope. Reminds me of the scene where Dwight has the gun in the office and accidentally fires it.

[Mike D]

What the.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my.

[Amy]

Because everybody should have been scared because anybody could have been hit.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Did he shoot himself or did he just get lucky and nobody get like, he shot himself. Like, right leg. Yeah.

[Eddie]

Oh, my gosh.

[Amy]

He did. He kept going with the podcast, I.

[Mike D]

Like how the host immediately just goes, who got shot? Like, we would have been like, what was.

[Amy]

I don't know who was who. By the way, the guy talking to him was the host. And the guy who got. Who shot himself never said anything. So that was all hosts.

[Eddie]

That was all hostile.

[Amy]

Do we ever hear the other guy? Kind of that low voice of, like, the groaning. Yeah, that was the guy who shot himself. Would you mind playing that again? Up till the. After the shot. And choices we got in life. Those were your choices.

[Lunchbox]

Who shot who?

[Amy]

And Rapportullo got. Somebody got shot. He got got. And the. Yeah, the hose is just. Hose is cool. It's very cool.

[Lunchbox]

Who shot who?

[Amy]

He couldn't see, like, the. Like, the puncture from his side of the room. So he's like, what happened?

[Eddie]

But even still get very casual. Somebody got shot.

[Mike D]

That's not how you would do it, Bones. Who shot who?

[Amy]

I'd have been like, I've been hit. I don't even know if I've been hit. I've been hit. So I don't have any gunshot stories. But I was asked my top three most awkward interview interactions at number three, and it sucks. She's sick right now. But it was Wendy Williams. She was on the show. It was a terrible interview. I asked her about something in her book she had written, but she had come to promote an appearance at the mall, and she didn't want me to ask about something in the book. And I didn't feel like I was, like, taking any liberties at all. And then she was like, you'll never be me. And I'm like, this is bizarre.

[Mike D]

Dang.

[Amy]

Because I wasn't being aggressive in any way. That's why I was so surprised by it. And because I literally asked questions about Tupac. She'd written a bunch about her and Tupac, and she was like, you'll never be me. And I'm like, what do you mean? She was like, I'm here to promote a mall appearance. I'm like, I'm trying to do A decent. So anyway, I was like, well, you can go. And she left, right. And then her. And then at the time, her husband. At the time.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Bodyguard, too.

[Amy]

Husband and bodyguard was, like, circling the building, waiting for me to come out.

[Mike D]

Oh, wow.

[Amy]

To beat me up, apparently. Dang. I know. And I didn't even do anything to deserve it. Like, I get it. Sometimes I say stuff and I'm like, oh, I get why they're mad. Not a great experience. Didn't like her at all. I'm sad. I'm sorry she's sick. Now, all that. That's number three. Number two, this happened with us. And I'm a big fan of Hank Williams Jr. But this video has gone even viral from the interview. Hank Williams Jr. Came in. I knew nothing of the fact he was fighting with somebody about smoking in the building.

[Eddie]

A cigar.

[Amy]

Yeah. And he's like, I want to smoke. And somebody here, rightfully so, was like, you can't smoke in the building. Fire alarms are. And he. And he. He was butthurt about it. I didn't know that. And he comes in and the whole thing's just awkward. But, like, I stayed true and was like, no, sit there and let's go. Let's do this. Because I thought he was kind of kidding, but he's also old. I didn't know there was a fight about a cigar. Here's a clip. All right. What do you want to do?

[Lunchbox]

I want to get out of here.

[Amy]

Wait already? We just.

[Lunchbox]

I won't smoke my cigar and get the hell out of here. I don't like it now, you know. You understand? Can we leave now?

[Amy]

You just walking?

[Lunchbox]

I'm ready to go.

[Amy]

All right, goodbye.

[Lunchbox]

I got half. I got a 26 cigar out there. So I've got about, in the words of my uncle, about 10.50 left on it.

[Amy]

I never knew he wasn't kidding.

[Mike D]

I mean, we were still laughing, the whole thing.

[Amy]

I was like, he's being Hank Jr. I've heard. I never met him. Hank's being Hank. He wanted out of it, and he wasn't mad at Meek. I didn't know. But I didn't know there was a fight about a cigar either. But, yeah, hilarious.

[Mike D]

I bet in his mind he was just watching that cigar burn to nothing while he's sitting in there.

[Amy]

So many people send me that video and go, I've never heard. This interview is hilarious. And I'm like, it wasn't meant to be.

[Mike D]

Yeah.

[Amy]

So that's number two. And I have no. I'm not Angry at him at all. That's just him being him. That was just a really weird interview. And number one, and only a few of you guys were at the house. But Sarah Evans, who sings Got Suds in the Bucket and the Bucket, Bucket, Bucket and I do that's it. And a bunch of songs, right? She's at the house and we're doing a Bobby cast. And I have these two old chairs that we sit in. They're large, and she's, like, leaning back, rocking back in it. She has her coffee. She's rocking back, and she wipes out, like, dumps. Boom. Falls back all the way back.

[Mike D]

Were you there waving?

[Eddie]

Yes, I was there. Yeah, I was sitting in that chair right before she was.

[Mike D]

I have a mental image of her coffee being floating in the air. Not in the cup, out of the cup, floating in the air as she was falling back. I see it right now in my mind.

[Eddie]

And then it went, like, back in the cup. She still had almost a full cup of coffee.

[Amy]

It's like when the guy falls and has his beer and keeps it up. Here's a clip because we happen to be rolling as it happened. So it's not the craziest audio, but this is it. I know. Have I met you? Whoa.

[Mike D]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, no.

[Amy]

Are you okay? Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, no.

[Amy]

To do first. First. Are you injured? Prove that it happened. I worked so hard. I'm like, don't move her if her neck's broken.

[Eddie]

She worked so hard on her.

[Amy]

So many people that have. Oh, no, that is. Let's let insurance know. Hey, don't grab your neck. She didn't grab her neck, everybody. Yeah, it was. It was. There was like three seconds where I had to choose my adventure. Do I get up and I'm like, okay, are you okay? Are you okay? Or do I just go hard and be funny? And I like Sarah, and I didn't. I don't know her really well. I know her better since then. Trust me. But she's quick and she's, you know, she'll come at you. And so I went at her hard and she gave it back and it was. Ended up being great. But it was scary. And she dumped. She wiped out.

[Mike D]

Yeah.

[Amy]

And.

[Mike D]

Oh, she fell back hard.

[Amy]

I just remember, for one, I like awkward, but I don't like it at somebody else's expense. I like awkward at my expense or being a part of something. And for a second, I felt awkward. I was like, if I make this awkward, it's going to be awkward for everybody. So I was like, boom. Yep. That joke chair got you, didn't it? And then it was just on.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Because for the first, like we didn't know what was happening. And I, we were, I guess we were by Mike's, but I didn't even know because I was sitting there. I was like, oh my God.

[Mike D]

Oh my God. For a minute there I thought she was going to get me. Like, look, I have coffee all over me. Like, I got to go.

[Amy]

She's trooper. She set up an hour interview. Crushed it. Shout out Sarah Evans.
