Bobby Bones
Correct. Winner. Easy Trivia. Amy is our winner yet again. Two points. Hello, Bobby Bones. A few weeks ago, a friend of mine asked me to be her maid of honor, and it totally caught me off guard. We're really not super close anymore, and in the moment, I said yes. It felt good to be asked, and I didn't want to hurt her feelings. Now reality is setting in. I'm starting to regret it. I don't really want all the responsibilities, especially because we're not that close. On top of that, her sister seems kind of upset that I was chosen instead of her. I'm picking up some weird tension there. I don't want to seem like a bad friend, but I also don't want to spend months feeling stressed and uncomfortable. What should I do? Stick it out or find a nice way to back out? Signed, Reluctant maid of Honor. Dang. That sister entrance into the story. That made me laugh. She didn't pick her sister. That was crazy.
Amy
Yeah, she picked you, and you don't want it.
Bobby Bones
I know. I Know that's hard. My answer here is not going to be the comfortable one. You already said yes. Yeah. All the other feelings are secondary. You said yes. You declared you are now the bridesmaid. No.
Amy
Maid of honor.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Yeah. You're the maid of honor. It is going to be awkward, especially if our sister's in the bridal party. Like, you would just want the sister not in anything. Right. If she's not gonna be the maid of honor, you just don't want her in anything because you're gonna be doing.
Amy
A lot of close things with her. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
This can be a learning lesson. Don't say yes to things you really don't want. Because in that moment, it might feel uncomfortable. Because what's going to happen is later after that, it's going to be way more uncomfortable if you say yes. And that's what you're doing now.
Amy
Well, she didn't know until she thought about it.
Bobby Bones
No, she knew she wasn't that close.
Amy
She knew right away she liked the.
Bobby Bones
Feeling of being asked to be a maid of honor, so she said yes.
Eddie
So no is an option when they ask you that?
Bobby Bones
No is always an option.
Eddie
Wow.
Amy
But then you just. It's awkward not coming.
Bobby Bones
Ask me to be your maid of honor.
Eddie
Hey, Bobby, I got a question, man. Would you be my maid of honor?
Bobby Bones
Oh, that is so nice of you. No.
Eddie
What? Why not?
Bobby Bones
We barely know each other.
Eddie
But you're my best friend.
Bobby Bones
And you're a dude. Why do you have a maid of honor?
Eddie
I got you.
Bobby Bones
No, no. It's uncomfortable. It is uncomfortable. But you know what's more uncomfortable?
Lunchbox
This.
Bobby Bones
All of this. So there's a way out of it. You can say, hey, I would love to be in your wedding. Shouldn't your sister be your maid of honor?
Eddie
Is it did?
Amy
Or like, maybe they could be co. Sometimes there's two.
Eddie
Is that a thing?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Amy
My sister had two maids of honor. Me and her best friend.
Bobby Bones
It's hard to say no to that, but I think the move is to say no to that. Because financially, you're now responsible for a lot of things. And also time wise, yeah, it's a lot. But you have to commit. You've committed, so you're now the maid of honor. So congratulations, maid of honor. Use this as a life lesson. All right, close it up. Let's go on the Bobby Bones Show.

Now, Vincent Mason.
Bobby Bones
When you went from van to bus. Life changing, right?
Vincent Mason
I'm still fired up about that.
Bobby Bones
Would you explain what it's like on a van versus what it's like in a bus.
Vincent Mason
It is like, it's actually life changing. I think back to the van days, and I'm like, I don't even know how we did it. We were rolling with 7, 7 and like a 16 passenger, but we didn't have a trailer. So, like, the. The first four rows were just like, the drums and the guitars. Like, a lot of times they're falling on you. And we had a stretch where, like, God was definitely, like, laughing and, like, testing us for sure. But the.
Bobby Bones
We were.
Vincent Mason
McFarland, Kansas. I remember we were driving to play with Gavin. We're driving 70 miles an hour. I'm half asleep. It's the middle of the day, and we just fall down. And the front tire, I just see it roll up a ramp like a. It was a hill.
Bobby Bones
See the tire?
Vincent Mason
The tire, the whole tire. We didn't blow a tire. Like, the whole tire came off the access. The access is sparking on the highway. I see the tire. It was a ranch with a. With a hill. And it went up the hill like a ramp. And I just. We all lost sight of the tire. It was 40 yards in the air, going 70 miles an hour, just flying into somebody's ranch. And then the axis is sparking down the road, and we're just saying, hit the brakes. Hit the brakes. Our drummer was driving. He's real low key, and he's just like, there's no brakes. And we're like, what? He's like, the brakes are out. So we just skidded 100 yards to the side of the road in McFarland, Kansas. And everyone just watched us. Everyone was driving by, and I posted it on Instagram and some kid was like, I just passed you. We were literally like. We were like, come get us.
Lunchbox
So he turned around in his little.
Vincent Mason
Truck and he came and got us. And we took, like, three, four trips from the van. That was one of our stories. We hit a black bear. That was our drummer. It all happened to our drummer. It was his first shift.
Bobby Bones
Might be what the common first shift driving.
Vincent Mason
We're sitting in the front. Our other tour manager just went to sleep. He'd been driving all day. I remember we're listening, talking Tennessee by Morgan Wallen I just remember being like, let's watch out for deer. Like, we don't need to hit a deer. And I said that I was looking to the left, expecting them to come out that way. That's where my eyes were. And then from the right, like, the way you see a bear, like, in full sprint on, like, national Geographic just ran across the front of the van. We just.
Bobby Bones
It wasn't sitting in the road, was not sitting there. It jumped like a deer.
Vincent Mason
Jumped out in front of the van, and we caught the back of it.
Bobby Bones
I saw that Hell on the dance floor. I was just looking at some Data. Was like 100 million streams. That's significant.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I mean, that pays the bills. Was there anything about this song, though? Was there any more of a push with it than other songs that make it this much bigger, or did it catch Almost. Then you guys decided almost nothing.
Vincent Mason
Made it different when you wrote it, did you? I knew there's this line in there. Rock bottom's got a brand new view that launches into the chorus. Hell is a dance floor. And like, just that kind of moment in the songwriting. I knew we did something. I was like, that's a great line. And then when we started clipping it on TikTok from that line, that's when it started catching. So I was like, okay, it's working. But I don't know, you start to see the numbers come in, the pre saves come in. You're like, all right, this one's going to be better than the others. I didn't think I'd get a gold record, like, to hang on the wall. That was wild. Getting like a physical.
Bobby Bones
Like, something tangible.
Vincent Mason
I just never thought about that. I thought about getting a bus, thought about playing shows. Never thought about 100 million streams.
Bobby Bones
More with Vincent Mason, who has that awesome song Hell as a dance floor. And we talked about the story of his first guitar. And then I'm always curious about what songs do artists cover the most when they're first starting out, when they've got to play a bunch of COVID songs. Let's go on the Bobby Bones show now. Vincent Mason, what song do you think you've covered the most?
Vincent Mason
Definitely. American Kids by Kenny Chesney. That was the first song. I got a guitar my sophomore year for Christmas. And I loved country radio at that time. I still do, but, like, those were the only country songs I knew. And that's why I wanted a guitar to play the country radio songs. And American kids. I just, like, started going for the.
Bobby Bones
So.
Vincent Mason
Sounded terrible. Why did you want a crazy song to start?
Bobby Bones
Why did you think your guitar would be cool?
Vincent Mason
I actually didn't want one. There was a. My mom got a ukulele as, like, birthday present. I think somebody my dad or my sisters got it for. And they were like, mess around on that. And she did for like a week. And then was like, I don't. I'm not gonna do this. And I picked it up. I was probably in eighth grade, learned a bunch of songs, like, never put it down. And it was my sister that was like, please, like, if you're gonna play this often, get a guitar. I can't listen to that anymore. And I was always just like, no, I'm good.
Bobby Bones
You still have fun doing shows. Is it. Is it so much fun?
Vincent Mason
I do.
Bobby Bones
I do. Is it more fun now that your songs are. More songs are blowing up and the crowd singing more back.
Vincent Mason
Way more fun now where it's like, you know, at first you have nothing, and you're just, like, trying to make it through. You're like, can I play a set? And, like, look like I know what I'm doing? And then you have one song. We had one song that people knew, and then now it feels like there's a handful. And, you know, we've been opening since May, so we went from headlining to doing 25 minutes. So it's like we only play five, six songs, and people know, like, four of them. So, like, it feels like you're kind of crushing for 25 minutes. So if we can extend that into 90, that'd be awesome.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Because you may have a bigger crowd, but if you're going out and you're playing support, you do have a literally smaller space on stage and a smaller set, but you can also pop out the hits faster.
Vincent Mason
That's right.
Bobby Bones
But I bet it feels a bit incomplete a little bit. When you're. When you're support, because you've been doing your own thing. Yes. And now you're gonna go do support, and it's bigger, but it's got to feel incomplete because you probably are just getting, like, wound up, and then it's over.
Vincent Mason
That's the thing. You.
Bobby Bones
You don't want to wait around all.
Vincent Mason
Day because you don't want the 25 minutes. It's long enough where you don't want to be flat, but then if you get yourself amped up, you're just. You're on and off the stage. And I think that five, six songs is usually, like, in a longer set, where you finally start to feel good. You're like, all right, we can rip the rest of these songs. Like, we all feel great, and, like, the last chorus of the last song, and then it's over, and you just got to try to wind down.
Bobby Bones
Did you have any shows last year where things. Nothing was working and you're just having to patch it together? Ears aren't working.
Vincent Mason
That just happened to me in Red West, Utah.
Bobby Bones
What happened?
Vincent Mason
Went out first. Six minutes. My mic didn't work. 12, 000 people and you go to sing your first song and like, like, we're talking about. You're getting yourself amped up, like. And festival days are always weird too, because sound checks faster. You don't have your normal routine. You're playing at probably like 3 or 4pm you're used to 7, 8. I got myself hyped up. Ran out there, saw the crowd. Another festival, kind of like putting tickets on sale. You're always like, how many people are going to come to our set? It's a great crowd. 12,000 people at the same time. Just started going, oh, they're not on.
Bobby Bones
Mike's not on. Can't hear you. Is the band playing around you?
Vincent Mason
Band's playing around me. I got ears in. All you see is people just going, can't hear, can't hear. And you just have like an internal, I think, like, anxiety attack.
Bobby Bones
Probably because you're wondering, do I keep going? Do I stop everything? Or were you playing to a click into a click? So you really can't.
Vincent Mason
And it's a festival, so you have a set time, so you can't start over unless you want to rearrange everything.
Bobby Bones
What happened? How'd that turn out?
Vincent Mason
We got it on.
Eddie
It was kind of.
Vincent Mason
It kind of became a funny moment because the first time I went on, I was like, can y' all hear this? And everyone's like, so it was good. But I think those moments when stuff don't work, you're thankful for the 200 shows that you've played because you're like, I guess this song's a wash. No one heard that song. Then we got into the rest of the set and it was fine.
Bobby Bones
Check Bobby Brown, too, if you want to hear that full interview, because that was just a piece of it. The whole hour is up on the Bobby cast today. Just go search for it on iHeartRadio or wherever you listen to your podcast. Bones. It's time for the good news with Bobby. Two years ago, Larissa Gonzalez was working as an intensive care unit nurse when she was hospitalized herself for the premature birth of her son. So she was already a nurse working in a different area, but she had issues. So she goes in and the birth was bumpy. 31 days in the neonatal intensive care unit. That's how long she spent. So before the ordeal, she was someone who was like, I can't do babies. Like, they're too small. There's no way I know I'm a nurse. This is a different level. Then she spent all that time in the NICU and that situation changed her. So since then she has moved down the hall from her old department and she has joined the neonatal group full time.
Amy
Nice.
Bobby Bones
Earlier this year she started attending graduate school to become a neonatal nurse practitioner, juggling classes and now her Caleb, her kids. Two years old and then also still doing her old nursing job until she can move into her new nursing job. And she said, I just want to be the one helping these families and helping these babies get to their next step.
Amy
And she knows, she knows what they're going through.
Bobby Bones
31 days. That's from people. That's it. That's what it's all about. That was Tell me something good Bones.

What do you get? When you mix 1950s Hollywood, a Cuban musician with a dream, and one of the most iconic sitcoms of all time, you get Desi Arness, a trailblazer, a businessman, a husband, and maybe most importantly, the first Latino to break primetime wide open. I'm Wilmer Valderrama, and yes, I grew up watching him, probably just like you and millions of others. But for me, I saw myself in his story.

You may know me as the second hottest actor from the Harold and Kumar movies, but I'm also an author, a White House staffer, and as of like 15 seconds ago, a podcast host. Along the way, I've made some friends who are experts in science, politics and pop culture. And each week one of them will be joining me to answer my burning questions, like, are we heading towards another financial crash? Like in 08, is non monogamy Back in style. And how come there's never a gate ready for your flight when it lands, like two minutes early? We've got guests like Pete Buttigieg, Stacey Abrams, Lilly Singh, and Bill Nye.
Bobby Bones

Fun Fact Friday.
Bobby Bones
If you've ever talked about a buttload of something or you've heard a buttload of something, it's an actual unit. It is 130American gallons. That is an official buttload Stop. It's a real thing. It was once used for casks of liquids like wine and whiskey. And when you'd fill the barrel up, you'd have a buttload of wine or a full butt.
Eddie
Did it start with some dude just being like, I don't know, man. It's a buttload of wine.
Bobby Bones
I got a big butt. Match it with that big butt. That's what it feels like. It is now. Yeah, I thought that's probably, you know, what it's derived from is someone's large buttocks, but it's not interesting. A buttload is official. Amy.
Amy
There's an orchestra made up entirely of typewriters. And since 2004, the Boston typewriter Orchestra has been playing concerts.
Bobby Bones
That's awesome.
Amy
They have clacking sliding carriages, bells, spinning rollers. All of the typewriter noises, like, makes beautiful music.
Bobby Bones
I feel like that'd be cute for like one song. And then like, about song four, like, I'm over it. Get some other instruments. Bring out the pianos or something.
Eddie
I bet they can really do a good version of nine to five.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. Or it's just one. It sounds. It feels like a Trans Siberian orchestra Christmas show of all typewriters.
Lunchbox
Lunchbox Bobby, you have looked forward to this. A four year old. When your child is four years old on average, they will ask you 437 questions a day.
Eddie
Oh, gosh.
Bobby Bones
Why? You say it like it's annoying.
Eddie
That's just crazy. I mean, I've had kids for so long that that's a lot of questions.
Bobby Bones
Does that feel accurate?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Eddie
I mean, now that they're older, I tell them, like, I don't look it up. So I kind of nip that one in the butt.
Bobby Bones
You give them what'd you say I.
Eddie
Nip that one in the butt?
Bobby Bones
No, that's not a term. It's not. It's nipping in the bud. It is? Yeah. Oh, so it's nipping in the bud, but a buttload?
Eddie
That's so weird.
Bobby Bones
All right, Morgan.
Amy
Have you guys ever wondered who we share DNA with?
Bobby Bones
Never.
Amy
Okay, well, this is gonna surprise you.
Bobby Bones
Aliens? Alien DNA?
Eddie
Oh, boy.
Amy
No, not aliens. But it is bananas. 50 to 60% of human DNA is similar to that of a banana.
Bobby Bones
I thought you were gonna say monkeys. I didn't know it was officially bananas.
Eddie
We're related to bananas?
Amy
I don't know if we're related, but our DNA is similar. The genetic makeup is similar to a banana.
Bobby Bones
Right, Eddie?
Eddie
Yeah. So you ever notice the elevator you go to and it has a little hole on it? The door has a little whole time?
Wilmer Valderrama
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it looks like. It looks like it would be a. Like a peephole to see if somebody's coming up to the door.
Eddie
That's what I thought it was for.
Bobby Bones
What is it?
Eddie
It's not. It's for a tool that they have. So if it gets stuck, they just put a little tool in there and they can crank the door open and save you.
Bobby Bones
I did not know that.
Eddie
Yeah. I always thought I was like, let's.
Bobby Bones
See if the elevator's coming. See who's on the other side of the elevator.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
There's no copyright or protection on magic tricks. If a magician invents a trick, anyone's free to use it. You just have to figure out how it's done. Oh, but there is an unwritten code, so most magicians refuse to use other magicians magic tricks. I watched a whole magic set the other day. We have NBA League pass. And so my wife and I, she likes to watch most of Thunder games. And there was a magician doing halftime, and I guess they're just using the camera from inside, like the closed circuit. And so we just watched the whole halftime show. And this guy was doing magic, but the camera was in a weird place. We could actually see how the trick was being done.
Eddie
Oh, no.
Amy
I know.
Bobby Bones
Woman got in the box, and it was just a camera that was set up, and you could see her, like, fall down in the box. And then the guy stuck the swords through it. And the crowd's like, oh. But we're like. We just saw how the trick worked.
Eddie
But how do they do that in an arena? Because, like, Arena's 360, you know, so people are all different angles.
Bobby Bones
No, because it's in The.
Lunchbox
They.
Bobby Bones
They fall to the bottom of the box. Okay. It looks like it ends there, but really there's, like a. A space. Oh, man.
Eddie
I can't believe you saw all of it.
Bobby Bones
We saw. And then we saw her, like, pop back up, and then they pull the swords out. Bad camera placement.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's what's up. All right, There you go. Fun Fact Friday. Fun Fact Friday. This is a bizarre story. Lunchbox over to you.
Lunchbox
Yeah. This dirty dog. So back in 2019, Tarly, she's from Virginia. She's engaged to get married. Time for her bachelorette party. So let's go to North Carolina. Girls, they go to North Carolina. They're out having a good time, and they meet these three dudes at a bar, and they end up hanging out with them all night, dancing, clubbing. And then the next day, she sends him a picture of the wedding invitation, says, you guys should come to my wedding.
Bobby Bones
Okay. So three dudes, they meet at a bar. Nothing fishy went down that night. That we know of.
Lunchbox
That we know of.
Bobby Bones
So then she's like, we had such a connection as friends. You guys should come to my wedding.
Eddie
Sounds like trouble.
Bobby Bones
It already feels odd. Okay, go ahead.
Lunchbox
And the guy's like, yeah, we'll be there. And so six weeks go by before the wedding. They don't hear anything from each other. And then on social media, the guys post a picture playing golf in that girl's hometown the day before the wedding. Next day at the wedding, they walk into the wedding, and they're there.
Bobby Bones
How does she know? On social media? Does she follow him?
Lunchbox
Yeah, they're Snapchat. They follow each other.
Bobby Bones
Okay, this feels weird, too.
Eddie
They got real close.
Amy
Quick, let me know you're hanging out. Hey, what's your snap?
Bobby Bones
But not to a single dude.
Lunchbox
When.
Amy
Yeah, I know. Okay.
Bobby Bones
Like, I would never meet a woman who's single, friendly, that has nothing to do with the work, and be like, hey, what's your Snapchat? Hey. Or just, like, randomly follow somebody on Instagram. I don't know. It just feels weird.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I mean, it feels weird that she's out on her bachelorette party and she's inviting new dudes to her wedding.
Bobby Bones
Three, though. It is three. Three dudes, not just one. But I hear you. It is weird. Go ahead.
Lunchbox
So the wedding goes on. They get married. She goes on her honeymoon. Those guys had the life. Or the life of the party. Dancing with the bride's mom, grandma, all that. Six weeks later, the bride tells the husband, ah, this marriage isn't Working out. I'm done. Leaves the marriage.
Eddie
I mean, you saw that coming, right?
Bobby Bones
Well, I don't know, because. Are you sure it was her and then it wasn't, like, a mutual thing?
Lunchbox
She says it was mutual, that we were just not into each other.
Bobby Bones
Okay, okay, she does say it's mutual.
Amy
Are the three guys related to the end of the marriage?
Lunchbox
And then she posted a picture on Snapchat of something, I don't even know what it was, like, a ginger ale. And one of the guys that she invited to the wedding replied to it. They started chatting via Snapchat Smash cut. Now they're married, two kids.
Bobby Bones
You keep saying one of the guys, but is it still the same consistent guy of one of the three, or is she, like, bouncing around between one.
Lunchbox
Of the three guys that she met.
Bobby Bones
At that bar, the same one and the same one she's been Snapchatting with?
Lunchbox
Yes. They got married. They have two kids.
Amy
Well, I mean, wow.
Bobby Bones
So is it all well, that ends well?
Eddie
I mean, divorce.
Amy
She never wanted to get married in the first place to the first guy. Right, Right.
Eddie
From the bachelor party. Bachelorette party, yeah.
Amy
Like, she thought she did, but she did it.
Bobby Bones
I think you're assuming a lot of things.
Vincent Mason
I think I'm looking from hearing the.
Amy
Evidence, and I'm like, on her bachelorette.
Bobby Bones
Party, she wanted to get married and then met some dude she could have. Like, who knows? If she cheated with the dude that night, who knows what happened? But I don't know that she just didn't want to get married.
Amy
Well, no, I mean, I think. I don't know if she was actually aware of it, but I think deep down she's. That didn't need to happen. She went through the whole thing. Like, she probably didn't want to cancel the wedding and be dramatic, but then she's six weeks in, and she's like, oh, man, I probably should have just canceled.
Bobby Bones
Do you think it was about this dude, though?
Amy
I think it's just, overall, like, this guy wasn't her guy, and it just.
Bobby Bones
So happened she had met another guy. Now, do you think this other guy was positioning himself the whole time, trying.
Eddie
To squeeze his way in?
Amy
Well, he sure did.
Bobby Bones
I would like to see their Snapchat interactions.
Amy
Oh, yeah, it's got to be more than ginger ale, you know? Right.
Bobby Bones
That's a weird picture, because that's what. That's the story you tell. Because this is all being told, right? Lunchbox. This is her version of the story.
Lunchbox
Yeah, this is her version. And she's saying you know, I don't regret going through the. With the wedding because if not, I would have never had my bachelorette party. I would never met this dude. He would have never come to my wedding.
Bobby Bones
That's an interesting perspective.
Lunchbox
And I'm like, wow, that's weird to say.
Bobby Bones
That's an interesting perspective of I'm glad I got married, because had I not, I would have never had the bachelorette party. Wouldn't have met this person that's the father of our two children now.
Amy
Yeah. But she just wouldn't know.
Bobby Bones
But if you guys are believers in fate, you have to believe that's what happened. And for that reason, I am not sure I believe.
Amy
I think it's fake.
Eddie
I'm with you.
Amy
I believe.
Bobby Bones
So you believe that she needed to get married?
Amy
Nope, I don't think she needed to get married. I believe in fate and also believe in fear. And I think she was scared to cancel the wedding.
Eddie
And I also believe in mistakes.
Bobby Bones
But there's no mistake if there's faith.
Eddie
Right? Right. It ends up being whatever it's going to be.
Bobby Bones
Right?
Eddie
Yeah.
Amy
I've been saying every day this week or the last few weeks, everything is exactly as it is supposed to be.
Bobby Bones
But you say that because that's how it is. There's no way to change how it is.
Amy
Yeah. It just helps with acceptance. It helps with the radical acceptance.
Eddie
Oh, you don't believe it.
Amy
No, I do. I do. But it's good to make it your mantra if you need to.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so you don't believe it. I'm with you. I'm with you.
Vincent Mason
I don't believe it.
Eddie
You guys are saying something.
Bobby Bones
I think we have complete free will. We are made to make our own decisions. We then have to pay for the decisions we made or we are celebrated for the decisions. I believe that we are given full choice.
Amy
Yeah, but I can't.
Bobby Bones
No, no, not if you. Not if you believe in fate. You don't believe that.
Amy
No, I believe in free will. And also we get put in opportunities for fate to happen. We get to choose.
Bobby Bones
I'm okay with whatever. I can't prove anybody's right or wrong.
Amy
Right.
Bobby Bones
Because it's unprovable.
Amy
It's like a mixture.
Bobby Bones
And that's fine. Yours can be a hybrid.
Amy
Yeah, it's a hybrid. I love that word.
Bobby Bones
Yours can be fate, will.
Amy
It's a hybrid.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. A little bit of fate, a little bit of free will. On Tuesdays, you get to make your own choices. And I love Wednesdays. Wednesdays is full fate day.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
A little fate, a little free will.
Bobby Bones
So if you had to make a. Make a statement on this, what do you think?
Amy
Really call it fate will.
Bobby Bones
What do you think really happened on the story?
Amy
What do you mean, what I think, really? I think she didn't want to marry the guy that she married. I think she thought she did, and she was going to try to go through with it. But sign number one was her interest in this other guy on her bachelorette party. That was sign number. We'll call it one. Maybe there was other signs. And then she decided to go through with the wedding. And then ultimately she just realized, I, I gotta get out.
Bobby Bones
Can I speak to something that hasn't been spoken to? And it's that if I'm the about to be husband and I find out my fiance about to be wife's inviting random dudes she met at a bachelorette.
Eddie
Party to our wedding, that's trouble.
Amy
That's interesting already.
Bobby Bones
I ain't gonna like that.
Eddie
Yes.
Bobby Bones
They're not coming.
Amy
Well, they came, right?
Eddie
And they were the life of the party.
Bobby Bones
Apparently. They're making out. Granny.
Amy
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Or whatever he said. But is it all well that ends well?
Amy
That's not one of my mantras.
Bobby Bones
No, but. But it did. It ended up exactly how it was supposed to, according to you guys, with this guy and the two kids.
Amy
Well, there's no. I think what. What that mantra does too, is like, you can't change anything. Like, there's no point in, should have, could have, woulda. Because when you should, a life like, it's.
Bobby Bones
It's gone. It's already happened. Good.
Amy
It's already happened.
Bobby Bones
That pace back in. In tube toothpaste.
Amy
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Eddie
Heard that.
Amy
Yeah, you could say that. Yeah. Can't put the pace back in the tube. Everything is exactly as supposed to be.
Bobby Bones
I'm literally just like, dude, you're at the bachelorette party. You're about to get married. Don't be texting, don't be messing with other dudes.
Eddie
That's crazy, man.
Bobby Bones
If I. And if I'm the husband and I look out and there's three dudes I don't even know, like, everybody's accounted for and there's like three dudes.
Amy
Like, how'd they get here?
Bobby Bones
With a beer bong in the back.
Amy
Yeah.
Vincent Mason
That's weird.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's a weird story. It's all. All's well that ends well. That's what I always say. I think I say it every day I come in. It's kind of my mantra. It's time for the good news with Amy. Tell me something good.
Amy
Kathleen Sanchez lives in San Antonio. She's a teacher, and she's about to get married. She orders her wedding dress. It takes over two weeks to arrive, and it's at the doorstep of her apartment. Someone steals the package. I wonder if they knew it was a wedding dress or if they were just stealing.
Bobby Bones
They're just stealing packages.
Amy
But, I mean, when you open it up and see that it's a wedding dress, you probably should just go drop it back off.
Bobby Bones
I don't think you risk it. I don't wanna. I don't think you take it back because you're probably looking. But, yeah, I don't think they knew.
Amy
Okay. So, yeah, she never got it back. Her story was shared, and then a complete stranger found out the exact wedding dress that it was, went and bought it, and then delivered it to her school while she was teaching, offered some words of encouragement, and voila. She was able to still wear the exact dress that she had originally picked out at her wedding.
Bobby Bones
I love it. That's a great story. What if, though, that person is that person who stole it and that was the random. I. I don't think it was.
Eddie
What a twist that would be.
Bobby Bones
That would be a twist. And then they become best friends.
Eddie
But. But that's the thing.
Amy
And the whole time they were that the whole time.
Bobby Bones
Well, yeah. I don't think. For the record, I don't think that's it.
Amy
It's definitely not it.
Eddie
But not definitely.
Amy
99.9. Sure.
Bobby Bones
It's non zero chance, as they say. It's a good story. The first part's not good.
Amy
Who says non zero? I don't know that. It's just that.
Eddie
I've never heard that. But it sounded cool, man.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Amy
You sounded like.
Bobby Bones
It's not a young person thing.
Amy
It's a science, as they say. Well, explain because I don't understand. And. And. And I want to, because it does sound cool.
Bobby Bones
Non zero can mean anything. That's not zero, but it can even mean fractional.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
So if you're like, hey, is there a chance if it's really. No, there's not a chance, but there is still the slightest. It's like it's non zero, as they say.
Amy
You have to say the whole. I think you have to say non zero, as they say, because the way.
Eddie
You said it was really cool.
Amy
Yeah. Like you.
Bobby Bones
No, it wasn't. That's just a normal person thing. No. Okay. Anyway, that's what it's all about. That was Tell me something good bones.

Wilmer Valderrama
What do you get when you mix 1950s Hollywood, a Cuban musician with a dream, and one of the most iconic sitcoms of all time? You get Desi Arnaz, a trailblazer, a businessman, a husband, and maybe most importantly, the first Latino to break primetime wide open. I'm Wilmer Valderrama, and yes, I grew up watching him, probably just like you and millions of others. But for me, I saw myself in his story.
Bobby Bones
From cleaning canary cages to this night here in New York, it's a long ways.

The Morning Corny.
Amy
Why should you never tell secrets in a cornfield?
Bobby Bones
Why should you never tell secrets in a cornfield?
Amy
Because the corn has ears, of course.
Bobby Bones
There you go. That was the morning corny. All right, here's a voicemail from a listener.
Ad Voice
I let my license expire. I got stopped for speeding, and they.
Bobby Bones
Took me to jail because my license were expired. I had to bond out. So I just wanted to let you know that does happen in Tennessee. Love your show. Wow, Amy. What a show highlight that would be. Amy. Guys, if Amy had to get a mug shot, oh, my God.
Eddie
You'd have to post that mugshot.
Bobby Bones
Of course we would find it.
Wilmer Valderrama
Yes.
Bobby Bones
It would be public. It'd be awesome.
Amy
Bail me out.
Bobby Bones
I feel like we should call Crime Stoppers again just so we can have Amy get pulled over and taken to jail. That would be one of the greatest bits in the history of this show.
Eddie
Could you, like, set her up, too, where, like, you call the police?
Bobby Bones
Well, that's what I said.
Eddie
Call crime, but not crime. Stalkers. You call the police and you're following her. Like, I know where she is. She's right here. You want to get her? I saw she didn't have a license.
Amy
Yeah, like, when I'm. If I'm ever leaving your house or something, you're just like, I know you're.
Bobby Bones
Helping him call you.
Eddie
Good idea, Amy.
Amy
No, no, no. If you wanted to, but I don't want you to.
Bobby Bones
That would be so funny if she got pulled over and taken a job.
Amy
Honestly, that call might have just done it.
Eddie
Oh, that call?
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yes. Not the 700 others. Well, and the many times we've told you a bad idea to not have an expired license.
Amy
Yeah, but she sounded like the sweetest little lady, and she got taken to jail. She. I mean, she didn't admit to any other priors. Like, I would feel like you go to jail if they pull you over, you don't have a license, and you have a warrant out, and you got.
Bobby Bones
Meth in your car.
Eddie
All that.
Bobby Bones
But she.
Amy
She just acted like it was straight up because her license was expired.
Eddie
You think you can handle jail?
Amy
No. No.
Bobby Bones
You watch. You watch Orange is a New Black.
Amy
Do you think I can handle jail? No. I mean, it's season one. I got scared.
Eddie
Oh, man, it gets crazier.
Ad Voice
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I mean, I know women's prison will be hard for you, probably. Yeah.
Amy
But, I mean, I think I would be a good. I try to be as good to everyone as possible because, you know, retaliation. Like, I don't want anybody coming after me. So I would just try to be easy going there.
Bobby Bones
Just get your license renewed.
Amy
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm telling you, I don't worry about jail. I think that call might do it. All right, I might do it.
Bobby Bones
Give me the next one, Ray. Me and my wife just got done watching that House of Dynamite. It was a complete waste of time. But my question for you is, do you think they'll make a sequel? Love the show. So there's a movie on Netflix called House of Dynamite. I really enjoyed it. A lot of people hated it. Not because of the movie, but because of what happens at some point of the movie. I'll just say that. Who else has seen it?
Amy
I've seen it.
Bobby Bones
I've seen it. Morgan and Mike. Okay, There will not be a sequel because that is not what the movie's about. The movie is supposed to leave you in a state of thinking and talking about it. It's okay that that movie drives people crazy. That's the point of the movie. The point of the movie was for conversations to be continued for many reasons. One of them probably, I can't believe that movie. But two, it really does. And I don't want to spoil the movie because I loved it. The purpose of it is for callers like that to call and go, what do you think? Do you think there's a sequel? I do not think there will ever be a sequel because I think that's anti the point of that movie. I'm the only person that likes the movie. Movie. Mike. Mike. Because he actually enjoys movies. I just enjoy driving people crazy. There's a difference. Mike, did you enjoy the movie? I love the movie and I love that it's sparking a conversation like that. That's what a great movie does. And you love it about the actual movie?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I loved all the different perspectives. I thought it was really well put together. I would encourage people to watch it. I'm not telling you. You're gonna love it. I bet you get halfway through and you're like, this is freaking awesome.
Eddie
Okay, what's it called? Stick of Dynamite.
Bobby Bones
No. House of Dynamite.
Eddie
House of Dynamite.
Bobby Bones
Yes, I'm watching it. So it's on Netflix. Check it out. It's Catherine Bigelow. She's the one that did the Hurt Locker. That's Jeremy Renner's, like, first movie, huh? Yeah. Yeah. Pretty good. Guess what?
Amy
What?
Bobby Bones
I have had no water since last night at midnight. I know. Food, no water, nothing.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Gotta have surgery today. So nothing. It sucks. Usually I have, you know, a little something to Eat. Eddie comes in and he's like, hey, I'm gonna go on a hunger strike.
Eddie
With you because I haven't eaten.
Amy
Because you don't have any food.
Eddie
No, I have food in my bag.
Amy
You do?
Eddie
Yeah. I won't eat it.
Bobby Bones
But he's having some water. He had some water.
Eddie
I kind of need the water.
Bobby Bones
The water is the hardest part. I've had no water, and I've been doing the show. It's pretty miserable. So I got to go in and get my ankle cut on today.
Amy
Can you put a little in your mouth and spit it out?
Eddie
Oh, you should probably do that.
Amy
Swish it around, because that's what you really need. You.
Bobby Bones
I feel like that's a little bit of. Just a tip.
Vincent Mason
Exactly.
Eddie
And I think.
Bobby Bones
And I think I'm okay not doing that. I think I'm okay just. It's too close for comfort.
Wilmer Valderrama
Because you don't.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah.
Eddie
And you get tempted, right?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. You're like. You're already there, so why not?
Eddie
Temptations too much.
Amy
Don't ever call me pervy Amy again.
Bobby Bones
No, no. There's a difference.
Eddie
It's a great.
Bobby Bones
It's analogy.
Eddie
Great analogy.
Amy
Okay.
Eddie
Because if you put water in your.
Bobby Bones
Mouth, it's already close.
Eddie
You're just like, I might as well just gulp it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. It's like, we've gone this far.
Amy
No, you can swish it around.
Bobby Bones
Or.
Amy
Like, you can suck on, like, a. A sponge.
Bobby Bones
I'm not gonna suck on a sponge.
Eddie
What are you talking about?
Amy
That's what they do at the hospital. They put a little sponge on a stick and then freeze it and then kind of just like put it in your mouth.
Bobby Bones
Do you have a sponge on a stick in your house? No, but I have no water. I've had no food. I've had nothing. I leave here today. As soon as the show's over, I go, I have surgery on my ankle. It's like a five or six hour process, which I did not think it would be that long.
Amy
But you're not under for that long.
Bobby Bones
I'm under for a couple of hours.
Amy
I guess I'm just curious how long you're going to be under anesthesia.
Bobby Bones
Going under is weird because you're there and it's like, here we go. You're awake. Hopefully you wake up.
Eddie
How do they time that? Like, it's crazy how they know that.
Bobby Bones
So experience education. Yes. Because they can miss. Yeah. And you can wake up in the middle of it. Didn't you wake up middle of once?
Amy
My colonoscopy Whoa. I looked up on the screens and I could see my insides on the screen.
Eddie
Oh, that would make me pass out.
Amy
I mean, it wasn't.
Bobby Bones
You're up. It's the whole. It's the meme from the Simpsons where he walks in, takes his hat, puts it back on, walks back out.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Amy
That was my first one ever. And I was in my twenties. Since then I've had multiple and I've not woken up at all.
Bobby Bones
Well, wish me the best, man. Still got some more show to do here. I just don't want to bring it up earlier because now I want water so bad. Like, the number one thing I want in my life is water.
Eddie
Because you can't have it.
Bobby Bones
It's not success. It's not. It's just water. I just want water. My father in law text me a message. He said, hey, praying for you and your doctor this morning. I hope you end up with the best ankle in the whole state.
Eddie
So awesome.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah.
Eddie
I would never think of praying for the doctor. That's just perfect.
Bobby Bones
He's the greatest. Like, just generally.
Amy
Well, we need to also pray for the anesthesiologist.
Eddie
Yes. And the nurse and.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And everybody that I'm driving with and against up there. So I don't. Yes. It's so crazy that we trust people because the two yellow lines in the middle of a road that have no barrier, it's just. You see them. That they don't come crashing into us all the time.
Eddie
And it's funny how well we respect those lines. Like, really. Like if I get close to them, like, whoa. Well, it's just a line.
Amy
Your life is on the line too.
Eddie
I know, but if you think about it, it's just the line.
Amy
Yeah, it's just.
Bobby Bones
Well, my drawing, it's a drawing on the ground that keeps us from crashing into each other and killing each other. Yeah.
Amy
My car senses the lines.
Bobby Bones
Oh, it brings you back.
Amy
It brings me back. I feel like I'm trying to get over.
Eddie
I feel like my tires are so messed up. It draws me to the line.
Bobby Bones
Oh, dang. Yeah, a lot of different scenarios here. Anyway, gotta have surgery today. House of Dynamite is what the movie is called. And the other one was Amy, get your license. Yes, please, please. Because if you don't, we will call you in.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
As a bit. What if we do a cop and a cop pulls her over and he's like, ma', am, get out of the car. And then it turns into one of those stripper cops and then we're recording the Whole thing, and he's just confused by it.
Amy
I mean, here you go again. Pervy being perfect.
Bobby Bones
No, that's normal for us.
Eddie
You wouldn't like that.
Bobby Bones
That's normal for us.
Eddie
We're dudes.
Amy
If I were to say any of these things.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Amy
I would be like, oh, because you've.
Bobby Bones
Spent the last 20 of your years being like, hey, I got a stick in my butt. Isn't that true, everybody?
Amy
That's not true.
Bobby Bones
All of a sudden, the stick's not there. So we're like, oh, this is a different version of Amy.
Amy
Okay. All right.
Bobby Bones
That's all I'm saying.
Amy
Some exaggeration there for sure.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Amy
Also, maybe I'll go today.
Bobby Bones
Okay. I hope you do. Bobby Bone Show Bonehead story of the day.
Lunchbox
This story comes to us from Sunrise, Florida. A woman was arrested for domestic violence. She gets booked in jail, and her husband's like, I want her back. So he calls 911, says, give me my wife back. Send her home. Like, sir, she has to spend the night in jail. Ten minutes later, he calls back, do I need to come down there and shoot someone to get my wife back? And he ended up calling 91140 times.
Bobby Bones
How did he get a fifth time after that call? You would think they would send someone to the house.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
How do you get 40 deep on that? Okay. And then. So they arrest him.
Lunchbox
So they went to his house and arrested him. So he spent the night in jail.
Vincent Mason
Go.
Bobby Bones
So was he in longer than his wife? And did she call when she got home? I was like, I want my husband back. Because that have been an awesome cycle.
Lunchbox
Okay, I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day.
Bobby Bones
All right, what is this new influencer law?
Amy
It's out of China, and it went into effect recently. And influencers have to prove their official qualifications before creating social media content on sensitive topics like medicine, law, education, and finance.
Bobby Bones
That's the most sensible thing ever.
Eddie
It makes sense to me.
Amy
The Cyberspace Administration of China, also known as the cac.
Bobby Bones
If it wasn't China, I'd be like, this is perfect. I know, I know. And it was like, China. I'm like, I don't know.
Amy
But the cac, they said that they've brought this in to protect people from misleading content and harmful advice that becomes available online. So from now on, creators have to highlight evidence of expertise prior to posting the content.
Bobby Bones
It's like you don't get your blue check mark if you're talking about a certain area. Unless you can prove you get your blue check mark for that area. Right.
Amy
You.
Bobby Bones
You get like, a medicine check mark. You get a. What are the other ones you said? Like a. Like a nutrition finance check mark. Because. Yeah, we just see people that say crap online and believe them.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Like, if they say it with. If they're assertive and they're confident, we're like, that's got to be true.
Amy
Yeah, I know.
Bobby Bones
Mouth tape. It is.
Amy
I think you should have to upload your certification, your license, your degree, whatever it is. Like, when I had to get certified to homeschool some stuff, I had to submit my degree. They scan it over and then they.
Bobby Bones
That's to actually do it, though. Like, we have that in America, where you have to have a certification.
Amy
Right, right, Right. But, I mean, I uploaded it and it got approved, so this could be a system. You upload it to the app and it checks you off, because you could just make one up. But, like, they need to verify that it's actually real.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I think there are a lot of people acting like experts in very sensitive areas. It's probably hurting more people than. Not even that it's helping, but it's hurting more people than it is. I don't know. I watch this stuff and, like, as long as I just buy, like, stocks and stuff.
Amy
Oh, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Well, I listen to Ray.
Amy
Yeah. Hopefully we don't need certifications for the radio.
Bobby Bones
Like Ellison. Ray says, go buy a bunch of GoPro stock. And I'm like, well, he saw it online, so I did it. Now I've lost a bunch of money, so I think it's a great idea. Hey, China, you got a good idea there? It's a weird thing to say. Check out the podcast. We're out. We're done. Go search for the Bobby Bones show podcast. It is up. I am leaving here to go straight to have surgery on my ankle. I do not know what the rest of. Not just the day, but of my life will bring.
Eddie
Yeah, scary thought.
Amy
Did we mark the ankle? You have the Sharpie in your hand right now.
Bobby Bones
I'm not marking my ankle just in case I'm not showing up to the hospital with an arrow point.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
I draw it all the way down my leg.
Eddie
This is the one.
Amy
Don't come at us on Monday when you come in and you're like, they did the wrong. They started with the wrong one. You guys, have you learned nothing from our.
Bobby Bones
You know, you're scared of everything. I used to be that. Now you're scared of everything. I'm not scared of you're scared of retaliation.
Amy
No, I'm proactive.
Bobby Bones
You're. You're scared of.
Amy
Yes, I am scared of that. The cartel. Yes, I am very scared of the cartel. Very scared.
Eddie
Honestly, I don't think the Sharpie is a bad idea. You should probably.
Amy
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
They told me last night to use some kind of scrub and scrub this antibacterial all over my ankle. Yeah.
Amy
Probably dial.
Bobby Bones
I didn't shave my ankle, but I thought about it.
Eddie
That would be smart, too.
Bobby Bones
I know.
Eddie
Let them know.
Amy
Why not make it easy for them to work with it? They're going to shave it. Probably.
Bobby Bones
When I did my colonoscopy, I shaved. I did my butt.
Eddie
Dude.
Amy
But you did. But you didn't do your ankle.
Bobby Bones
I didn't because the butt's a weirder place. And I didn't want them to be.
Eddie
Like, did you Sharpie it too?
Bobby Bones
There's only. And all the way down my back, there's an arrow pointing all the way down the crack.
Amy
There's only one butthole.
Bobby Bones
I know. Yes, that's true.
Eddie
That's a joke, Amy.
Bobby Bones
No, but I wasn't worried about that. That was a joke. A joke I wasn't worried about.
Amy
That's a joke. Like you have another orphan.
Bobby Bones
Can I tell you something I'm a little scared of? Go ahead. I'm scared of them taking pictures of my wiener.
Amy
Why? They can't do that.
Eddie
They're not supposed to do that.
Bobby Bones
I know, but I'm out. How do I know what they're taking pictures of?
Amy
I would imagine.
Bobby Bones
I'm not sure what even. They said wear loose clothing, but I have a feeling even for ankle, they're gonna put me in a gown.
Amy
Yeah. But I think for your ankle you should be able to leave underwear on. Unless they're going to need to put in a suppository.
Eddie
If they tell you you have to be naked for.
Bobby Bones
They might though they might have to.
Amy
Put something in his butt.
Lunchbox
What?
Amy
They might need a suppository. And I don't know.
Bobby Bones
Why would they do that?
Eddie
Like, question that.
Bobby Bones
No chance this could happen.
Amy
I don't.
Bobby Bones
Why would they do that? For my ankle.
Amy
They might give you medication via your butt, Amy.
Bobby Bones
For my ankle. There's no chance.
Amy
No. For, like, pain or.
Bobby Bones
I'll take it. I'll have through my mouth. I'm happy to take that through my mouth.
Amy
You can't swallow. And I know they could do it through an iv, but it's something maybe, like, the butt's faster.
Bobby Bones
So I need to shave my Butt again is what you're saying.
Eddie
You're not ready, dude. Go get ready.
Bobby Bones
I'm not ready for the surgery.
Amy
I don't.
Bobby Bones
Oh, no.
Amy
I don't have a degree for this. So don't.
Bobby Bones
Okay, Amy, need the china upload.
Amy
Yeah, I don't have a certification or license in this. I just know that. I've heard of that.
Bobby Bones
Well, now add that to my fear list. Fear one, wrong ankle, but I'm not gonna draw on it. Fear two, just ask when you get there. I don't wake up from anesthesia or I wake up early. Fear three, they take a picture of my wiener because I can't. I don't know what they're up to. Hey. Hey. You have your phone with you? Yeah.
Eddie
Check this out.
Bobby Bones
Check this out. They.
Amy
That would be.
Eddie
So where is it?
Amy
They would lose their license.
Bobby Bones
Why is it shaped like that?
Eddie
They call the whole offices.
Bobby Bones
It's like that tick tock. Those nurses.
Amy
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Eddie
That was the poop.
Amy
No, the discharge.
Bobby Bones
Well, both would be a. Discharge bodily.
Eddie
I saw them.
Bobby Bones
They're all doing a tick tock. Taking. Pointing down at my wieners, taking pictures.
Amy
Yeah, well, they would get fired.
Bobby Bones
Yes, well. And then. Now the other one is tell them that I'm going to wake up with something on my butt.
Eddie
Yeah, that's.
Amy
Well, it's. It'll dissolve. You won't know. It's a suppository. They put it in. But you. Before the surgery, you should remind them about that tick tock of the people that got.
Eddie
You know, you can get fired if you do this right.
Bobby Bones
If you. No, I. I'm sure I write in Sharpie on my wiener. Caught you.
Eddie
Busted.
Vincent Mason
So they see it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, caught you.
Eddie
Yep.
Vincent Mason
You're fine.
Bobby Bones
I wrote you're fired on it.
Amy
I'm. I'm sure you're. You're going to professionals.
Bobby Bones
I am.
Eddie
You never know, though. You never know.
Bobby Bones
Well, I think they're professional. Paying them. They better be professional.
Eddie
Well, yeah, they're professionals, but, I mean, they don't act professional people, you know?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. We do think people act a lot more mature than they really are.
Vincent Mason
Right.
Amy
Because you know, they're gonna go home and be like, I saw Bobby.
Eddie
Like, when. When my dad. When my dad was. Was in the hospital, I. I, like, went in the wrong door. And all the doctors. I went to the doctor's lounge and they were all like, bro. So this chick was like, they're like, oh, sir, can we help you?
Bobby Bones
O. It was like, whoa. We learned later in life that teachers aren't perfect.
Eddie
Right?
Bobby Bones
Cuz our friends started to be teachers.
Eddie
That's true.
Bobby Bones
And then we're like, oh, teachers go hard too. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, we got to go. Hopefully we'll see you Monday. All right, bye, everybody.
Amy
Let's go.

Host: Bobby Bones (Premiere Networks)
Guests/Contributors: Amy, Eddie, Lunchbox, Vincent Mason
This episode blends Bobby’s pre-surgery anxieties with zany team banter, a recap of a wild real-life wedding twist, friendly competition via “Easy Trivia,” and listener call-ins about run-ins with the law. Special guest Vincent Mason joins to share stories from the road, and the crew debates fate versus free will. The show moves through humor, personal admissions, and good news stories, closing on Bobby’s reflection before his ankle surgery.
The show maintains its trademark playful, quick-witted, and sometimes self-deprecating tone. Conversations flow naturally, punctuated by side commentary, friendly ribbing, and absurd hypothetical scenarios.
This episode delivers the usual blend of laughs, pop culture, offbeat news, real-life drama, and the uniquely transparent camaraderie of the Bobby Bones Show crew. The story of the bachelorette-party-turned-blended-family, Bobby’s surgery prep anxiety, listener calls about everyday legal risks, and spontaneous tangents make the episode engaging and relatable, even for newcomers.
