Here we go.
Lunchbox
Come on, Bobby Bone transmitting across America.
Bobby Bones
This is the Bobby Bone Show. Welcome to Friday's show. We got a big one. Morning, studio. Morning. So Lunchbox had a situation at a restaurant and he's gonna tell us the story and then he wants us to decide. Team restaurant or team Lunchbox? Everybody in?
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Let's try to go into it like, like, like a jury would. We have no information on him or the restaurant or the case. We're trying to go into it blind. And so let's make our decision based off the facts only. Lunchbox, you're up.
Abby
I didn't like all that. Sarcastic. Right.
Bobby Bones
Well, most times you bring a team lunchbox versus something. We always pick to something.
Abby
Yes. Well, anyway, I went to a restaurant with my family. We ate, we asked for the bill, and I give my credit card. The server takes it, runs the credit card or goes back and I see on the receipt when he comes back a 2.5% charge for a credit card fee. Excuse me, why am I paying a credit card fee? I am not there to pay a credit card fee. I'm there to pay for my food, the tax, and a tip. Why all of a sudden are we adding in a credit card fee? So if you're going to charge me the 2.5% for a credit card fee. Guess what? That's 2.5% less that you're getting tipped. Because you decided to take that money from me. Because I decided to use a credit card. If you offer credit card. If you offer payment by credit card, you. You should be responsible for the credit card fee, not me. And less when I hand you my credit card and you go, oh, excuse me, sir. Just so you know, we charge a credit card fee. No one told me that. Just went ahead and added it on like I wasn't going to notice.
Lunchbox
It is interesting. I have never seen that on food. I mean, I know some places will be like, hey, heads up, we have a 3% credit card fee them to use a credit. But it's oftentimes advantageous for them to use or accept credit cards because they can end up making more because everybody has the credit card.
Bobby Bones
I think you're missing the point of the story here is he held it against the server.
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah.
Bobby Bones
You were going to take something from somebody. You take the two and a half. First of all, it's there. You take the two and a half percent off the bill. You don't take it off the server. It's already nothing to do with it.
Lunchbox
Correct.
Bobby Bones
You punish somebody who didn't deserve to be punished.
Abby
Well, he decided to work there. He decided.
Bobby Bones
No, no, no.
Abby
He decided not to inform me of this charge. Like I've never seen somewhere say, oh, you're going to cover the bill. You're going to cover the credit card charge for us.
Bobby Bones
I.
Abby
No, I'm not. I came in here to eat. I didn't come in here to pay your bills.
Bobby Bones
How much was your total bill?
Abby
I was like $66.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so 10% of that is $6. So we'll cut that in half. That's basically less than $3. So less than $3 on what you just did in that 2.5%?
Abby
It was like $1.65.
Bobby Bones
Okay, let's.
Eddie
That's what you're fighting.
Abby
It adds up, dude.
Bobby Bones
It does add up. But that $1.65 would be enough to go. You know what? I'm not going to go back to that place anymore. More so than I'm going to punish this waiter by taking money from him.
Abby
I just felt like it was a very shady tactic by this restaurant. Like, who does that?
Bobby Bones
I think everybody, or at least a lot of restaurants do.
Abby
What?
Bobby Bones
Because they can just mark up the food.
Abby
Okay, that's fine. Mark up the food, but don't act like I'm covering the credit card fee you offer me to pay my credit card.
Bobby Bones
Fighting about that. I'm fighting that you punish the wrong person with your irrational punishing.
Eddie
But if they mark up the food, that's not being sneaky.
Bobby Bones
Of course it is.
Eddie
Like, that's the same thing to me. If they mark up the food.
Abby
No, no. If I go in there and a burger is $5 or it's $5 and 50 cents, I don't know that they're making it.
Bobby Bones
So what you don't know doesn't matter.
Abby
Right.
Lunchbox
So if they had just not put the little.
Bobby Bones
They could just not put it at all. Yeah, but that's not even the issue here. The issue here, he can be mad or credit card fee only once. Free country.
Lunchbox
Right? You're right. The issue is him punish the person.
Bobby Bones
Who had nothing to do with it. When if he was going to punish somebody, he holds back 2.5 off the bill. And it's like, I'm not paying the whole bill. I'm not paying the credit card fee. You can just say that I'm not paying the credit card fee, which tough. Pay your two bucks and then just don't go back to that place. That's gonna hurt them worse. But now you heard a person who's depending on that money to pay their rent.
Abby
Yeah, but now the restaurant will be like, oh, man, we screwed this guy over.
Bobby Bones
They won't. That guy.
Abby
I don't care.
Bobby Bones
That guy will just know he didn't get a tip. He won't know why. He'll just think you were a jerk.
Eddie
Unless you wrote it down.
Bobby Bones
Did you write okay? Did you write I should have wrote that down?
Abby
I didn't even think about that.
Bobby Bones
All right, Team restaurant or team lunchbox, everybody.
Eddie
Team restaurant.
Bobby Bones
That makes the record 410 lunchbox versus things.
Abby
Why are you guys pro credit card fee?
Eddie
We're not.
Bobby Bones
I'm not anti credit card fee because I understand there needs to be a fee because they are actually spending money to use credit card. But I'm also not pro. I just am anti you by punishing that person.
Abby
Well, sorry you guys don't see it the way I do.
Eddie
Jury, we're sorry, too.
Bobby Bones
We're sorry. Lunchboxes. He loses.
Eddie
He loses.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Hello, Bobby Bones. Just because I'm getting up there in years doesn't mean I'm done living. Over the last few weeks, I've taken a step back and realized that my kids are doing extremely well for themselves. They don't need me. So I rewrote my will and decided I would rather spend my money to make my remaining years amazing than put it away for them. Especially since they don't need it. My kids have seen the plans that I've been making, and they know that things like trips and cruises aren't cheap. They voice their concerns. It's becoming clear their fears don't have anything to do with my well being. They're worried about what will be left for them. I feel like it's my money. I can do with it what I want. But they've been pretty unsubtle about making me feel like I owe them something after I kick the bucket. Should I feel wrong about this? Do I owe my kids anything? Signed, Richard the retired. Wow. Richard, justice for you, buddy. Good for you. Yeah, Richard, a couple things, right? Like, two things can be true, and I'll give you the two things here. One, you definitely want to leave something for your kids if you have it. But two, you don't believe in everything. And you deserve the right to live and you deserve the right to live a life that you've created for yourself. So those kids, screw them. Mildly, not completely. Yeah, yeah, mildly screw them, like in a loving way. So, dude, first of all, good for you. You should be able to go out and live your life because you're. You created this life. I don't know that I would have told him. I don't think I would have invested the time to go, here's the new will, guys. And if you look, scroll down now. Keep scrolling, keep scrolling. Oh. How do you feel about that? Not good.
Eddie
Dad, what are you doing?
Bobby Bones
Yes. So I think this is just a very direct conversation with these little snot nose brats. And it's like, hey, you guys are set up. There are a couple things. And you can even change the real life story. And you can go listen for me, I feel like you guys have been set up so well that I want you to thrive based on what you've been provided up to this point. And there'll be something for you. And you know what? I might even go back in and change it again. But I've set you up in a way that I don't want to give you so much that you don't have to work and you don't have the need and just said a bunch of bull crap words and then float in there. You might change it again later because you might probably won't. But they also need to understand that you are living your life. They're adults. You've set them up. And if they don't understand that, then they're not even your kids.
Lunchbox
Yeah, right.
Bobby Bones
I don't think that's exactly. Richard, don't feel guilty. Here's what I think is going to happen. If I can just predict the future. You're going to go do a bunch of this stuff and realize, ah, you're not that fulfilled. Some of it's fun. You kind of get it out of your system. You can only go on so many cruises. Although I did see a woman who sold her house and living on a cruise now.
Eddie
Oh, that's cool.
Lunchbox
Yeah, it's like, that's awesome. Yeah, she. For some people, they do that and it's like, cheaper than trying to live somewhere on land.
Bobby Bones
Like, if that's like, your thing and you want to do that and you're able to retire and do that, that's awesome. So, Richard, go live your life. My prediction is you're going to sooner than later get out of this little season of I need to go and ride Fu Manchu and go skydiving, Rocky mountain climbing, all that live like you're dying stuff from the song. But the kids need to have it. Talking to and like, hey, guys, I get you. You'll be taken care of. You have been taken care of. But you got to let me live my life.
Lunchbox
Yeah. It's crazy to me that they would. I can't imagine saying that to my parents or feeling that way about my parents. Like, don't go experience.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's my money. No, it ain't.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Ain't your money.
Lunchbox
Nope, nope, nope.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, the problem, too, is letting them know what. What was in the will to begin with. Yeah. Because if you tell them that, then they know what's taken away from them.
Eddie
Yeah.
Abby
Oh, that sucks.
Bobby Bones
What does.
Abby
I mean, I feel bad for the kids.
Bobby Bones
No, he said they're set up fine, they're good to go. And.
Eddie
And like.
Bobby Bones
And they're doing well for themselves.
Eddie
I don't understand the leaving something for your kids anyway. Like, you sacrifice your whole life for them. Like, you raised them, you paid for everything for them. Now it's time for them to live their life and me live my life.
Bobby Bones
Amen. You're saying that from a dad. If I were a kid, though, and you're.
Eddie
If you're saying that, I'd be like, I get that.
Lunchbox
I think it's more fun when, like, it's a surprise.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I agree.
Lunchbox
You know?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Just tell them, hey, whoever acts the best in the next five years, I'll Lift you up in the wheel. Make it a game. Make a little game. There'll be a little something extra for you. Don't feel bad, Richard. I'm proud for you, dude. Great job. Thank you for emailing us. Close it up. Amy does not know the challenge that's about to happen, but she claimed that she can nail Heinz ketchup by just tasting it blindly. Because the whole story was I used to wait tables and we just refill the ketchup bottles. Even if it was a Heinz with whatever, we'd get it in bulk and just dump it in there. It never really was the same brand.
Eddie
And she was shocked.
Bobby Bones
And she was shocked. Listen to this. This is her.
Lunchbox
Okay, but we'll back up. You're telling me if you had a Heinz ketchup bottle on a table, you would fill it with whatever cheap stuff I would be able to know.
Bobby Bones
You wouldn't.
Lunchbox
Yes, yes. Heinz is a berry.
Bobby Bones
Not one time in the history of me waiting tables did someone raise their hand and go, this is not great. Poupon.
Lunchbox
Okay, well, they're not a ketchup connoisseur.
Abby
Oh, boy.
Bobby Bones
So let's see if she's a ketchup connoisseur, because we'll walk her in. We have four spoons with four different kinds of ketchup in it. And if she doesn't get it, she gets put on the wheel of punishment. Boy, do we have some good punishments for her coming up next week. All right, bring her on in now. She will not be blindfolded yet. We'll let her look at it briefly.
Eddie
And all she sees is what?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, don't let her stare at them. You can. You can look.
Eddie
Why are you on your desk?
Bobby Bones
You can sit at your table.
Eddie
Oh, where are you going?
Bobby Bones
Okay, blindfold her now. Scuba. Don't let her stare anymore.
Lunchbox
I thought I was gonna have to. I forgot this.
Bobby Bones
So we played the clip back. That's why we didn't tell you. We played the clip back of you saying you're a ketchup connoisseur.
Lunchbox
I am a ketchup connoisseur.
Bobby Bones
I sure would have known. So we have four spoons. These are black plastic spoons. Each spoon has.
Lunchbox
Where's Abby?
Bobby Bones
What? Why are you asking about Abby? Cuz she's a.
Abby
She's a connoisseur of.
Bobby Bones
Why would. Why did you yell, where's Abby?
Lunchbox
Because she put on my. I was blindfolded, ready to go, and then I was.
Bobby Bones
You don't have to yell louder because you have a blindfold. On.
Lunchbox
Oh, it's so. It's so weird because sometimes when one of your senses is taken away, your other ones are heightened.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Okay, so there are four spoons in front of you. Hey, Scuba, have Abby come in and feed her the spoons, because if Amy puts her hands down, it's going to go right into the ketchup.
Eddie
So that's why she was looking for Abby.
Bobby Bones
I think she just didn't feel comfortable with Scuba aggressively tying her head up.
Eddie
Got it.
Bobby Bones
So, Amy, have four spoons in front of you, and you can pick the number 1, 2, 3, or 4. One of them is Heinz. The other three or three different random brands.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Bobby Bones
If you win, we will declare you are the master of the kitchen connoisseur or the ketchup connoisseurs. If you lose, you're on the Wheel of Punishment next week.
Lunchbox
Wheel of Punishment.
Bobby Bones
You can't make a bold statement like you just did and not be up for Will of punishment.
Lunchbox
Okay. My dad used to say that ketchup.
Eddie
Or was the fruit of the sea.
Lunchbox
No, but, like, good quote, good quote by your dad. Something like food was just a carrier for me to get ketchup in my body.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, food's like a conduit for ketchup.
Lunchbox
Conduit. That's the word.
Eddie
That's not a great saying.
Lunchbox
That's what he would say about me. My love for ketchup. Heinz, specifically.
Bobby Bones
Okay, Amy, you have four spoons full of ketchup. Pick a number. 1, 2, 3, or 4.
Lunchbox
Okay. I get to try them all and then tell you.
Bobby Bones
Correct.
Lunchbox
Okay. Okay. One.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Abby, would you hand her the stick for one? Amy, put your hand out. This is the stick for one.
Lunchbox
If I don't know what they are, why can't I look at them?
Bobby Bones
Because they're colored slightly different.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Bobby Bones
And if. No, no, Abby, you have to hand it to her from the.
Abby
You're. Feed her.
Lunchbox
Why would she hand it to her?
Eddie
Oh, no, there's ketchup everywhere.
Abby
No, no, feed her.
Bobby Bones
Okay, now you got it. There you go. Okay, Amy's eating spoon number one. That itself I want to throw off.
Eddie
So weird.
Bobby Bones
You can just do a tongue in it.
Lunchbox
I can tell you one thing that. Not hinds.
Bobby Bones
Oh, Thuffer and thakkatash.
Eddie
Why do you have a lisp all of a sudden?
Bobby Bones
So you don't take number one as Heinz.
Lunchbox
No, that is. I have a list' cause it's thou.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Eddie
Thou.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Would you like number two or did you go a different number?
Lunchbox
How do I clean my palette?
Eddie
Can we get her water?
Bobby Bones
Right?
Eddie
You can get her water.
Lunchbox
Can we make two?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, we can get a little water. A little water coming at you right now we throw it at her. Two, do you want to clean your palate first or.
Lunchbox
No, it's fine.
Bobby Bones
Okay, let's go with number two. And you could also say it could be, and you'll come back to it. She's going with a spoon. Number two, she's just nibbling, which is better than the last time she went full in. She parked the car fully in the garage on number one.
Abby
It's like she's scared to eat it now.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, well, it's just ketchup.
Lunchbox
No, I'm using. I'm using my tongue to check out the texture.
Bobby Bones
Amen, sister. Oh, boy.
Lunchbox
Okay. I don't know.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so two is standing by.
Lunchbox
I don't think so, but maybe. Okay, so I don't know if I have aftertaste of one.
Bobby Bones
You have a water coming at you.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Abby squirts in her face like a football player. Okay, there you go. Clean that, Paladin.
Eddie
Amy, was number two sour?
Lunchbox
It was sour. Number three, please.
Bobby Bones
Okay, number three. So number two still in the running, but she's gonna go number three.
Lunchbox
Oh, don't. No, no.
Eddie
She has a white shirt on, too.
Abby
I know. Real smart.
Bobby Bones
Well, she didn't know. She had no idea.
Abby
Her eating method is so weird now.
Bobby Bones
Well, it's blind. She's blindfolded.
Eddie
She's just dipping her tongue in the right.
Abby
She's not even eating it.
Bobby Bones
But it's just ketchup. Guys, you're acting like she needs to take a full spoon.
Eddie
Interesting.
Bobby Bones
She's going back in. She did a little smell. Oh, I think she's. She's digging on three a little bit.
Lunchbox
It has some flavor to it that I'm not interesting.
Abby
Probably. Ketchup flavor?
Lunchbox
No, like a. Like a aftertaste I don't recognize.
Bobby Bones
It's like wine. I think this was 2023 from the region of Des Moines.
Eddie
She's shaking the ketchup.
Bobby Bones
Okay, three, are you eliminating it or keeping it for later?
Lunchbox
I don't know.
Bobby Bones
So you're keeping it for later.
Lunchbox
Water.
Eddie
Now.
Lunchbox
She's demanding on the ground or the table?
Bobby Bones
So so far, she's trying to find Heinz ketchup.
Lunchbox
I think doing one first ruined me. It was so sour.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so one is out of the running, but two and three are still in the running. Let's go to number four.
Lunchbox
Do we have any French fries or something?
Eddie
We're fresh out of French fries?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, we ate them all before you got here. It's like the movies. We had everything before the movie started. Okay, Amy, final. This is number four of the ketchups.
Lunchbox
She smells familiar.
Abby
She smells familiar. I like the way you call her she.
Lunchbox
Oh. Oh.
Bobby Bones
How's she taste?
Abby
Does she taste familiar?
Lunchbox
Oh, that's not her.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so hold on. Amy, is. Is. She's going like a lizard, but really slow with her tongue. Like it's a lizard.
Lunchbox
Like, I don't hate it, but I don't.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Is it Heinz?
Bobby Bones
She's going back in again.
Abby
Oh, she's going back.
Bobby Bones
She's going back again.
Lunchbox
That's not Heinz.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so one.
Eddie
Oh, now it's over now it's terrible.
Abby
Like, you were just liking it.
Lunchbox
I think I actually, I've been trying to just do the.
Bobby Bones
That's salsa.
Lunchbox
Just do the tip. But I need more.
Bobby Bones
Hey. Okay, now. Okay, so one and four dead. So we're gonna go back to two and three. The two that Amy has. Has kept in the race here. She's having a drink of water. Can she identify the Heinz ketchup? She's a ketchup connoisseur. Let's go back to number two, please. Abby, if you'll hand her number two.
Lunchbox
Oh, scared me. I just stuck your hand in it.
Bobby Bones
All right.
Abby
Oh, my gosh.
Lunchbox
I'm sorry about that.
Bobby Bones
Go ahead, Amy. Don't.
Eddie
Don't peek, Amy, don't peek.
Abby
What is using an old sniffling.
Bobby Bones
She's sniffing it up as she's going. A little tongue.
Lunchbox
Where is it?
Abby
You gotta get the spoon in your mouth.
Bobby Bones
There you go.
Eddie
There she is.
Bobby Bones
There she is. Yeah, that's her. How's she tasting? Okay. She did the head like. Ah, it could be. Okay, so then she's gonna test three. Now let her clean that palette real quick, and then she'll make your decision. You've already eliminated one and four.
Abby
She may need to go back to four. She liked her.
Lunchbox
I really hope I don't let my family down.
Eddie
You think they'll be let down?
Abby
You think they care after this?
Bobby Bones
Here we go. Here's back to number three.
Eddie
Oh.
Abby
Oh.
Eddie
She went hard, deep into it.
Bobby Bones
She hit herself in the forehead with the spoon.
Eddie
Oh, she likes that one.
Lunchbox
It's just a weird little. It's a weird. Listen, let me tell you.
Bobby Bones
Go ahead. If one of these is something, I promise you nothing. Trust me. They tried that bit, and I said, no, we're not putting something that's not ketchup in it.
Lunchbox
Oh, I know. They're all, catch them.
Bobby Bones
We didn't pee in it. Nothing like that.
Lunchbox
But if one of them is like a knockoff, they did a good job.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I thought she was gonna say, did you mess with it? Because we'd have done that prank too.
Abby
Oh, yeah.
Lunchbox
Oh, no, I'd be. I'd sue you.
Eddie
I know you wouldn't.
Bobby Bones
Good luck.
Lunchbox
Can I have two, please?
Bobby Bones
She going back to two?
Abby
She wants them at the same time.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Abby
Double fisting. I've never seen someone.
Bobby Bones
Oh, okay, she's got him up. Oh, go ahead. And there's.
Eddie
She's shaking.
Abby
She's so nervous.
Bobby Bones
She's put two back in her mouth. Okay.
Lunchbox
Texture of two is Just seems a little thicker.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. All right. And then let's go back to three.
Eddie
I mean, she likes two, but I don't know.
Bobby Bones
But three sounds great. Except for the aftertaste. There's like a weird aftertaste on three.
Eddie
Apparently, now she's rubbing her face with.
Abby
The ketchup, snorting it.
Bobby Bones
There's a different way to do it.
Lunchbox
Okay, the texture of two on my lip, it doesn't feel like Heinz.
Bobby Bones
So your answer is.
Lunchbox
But, gosh, it sort of tastes like it. It's pretty too sweet.
Eddie
Amy, did you say three has the aftertaste?
Lunchbox
Three has, like, this weird tang thing happening, like a spice in it that. It doesn't seem familiar, but maybe because I'm blind folded.
Bobby Bones
Your blindfold heightened.
Lunchbox
But, like, if I were to. Can I touch it with my finger?
Bobby Bones
Sure, Amy.
Lunchbox
That feels like Heinz.
Eddie
Wait, what have you been doing with ketchup?
Morgan
What in the world?
Abby
You feel it?
Bobby Bones
Did the other one feel like Heinz?
Lunchbox
Let me see.
Eddie
She's like, can I rub this over my body?
Lunchbox
Where's two? Oh, yeah, that's too thick. It's too thick. Okay, so that too is too thick.
Bobby Bones
So your answer is.
Lunchbox
I guess it's three.
Bobby Bones
Your answer is three. Are you committed to three?
Lunchbox
I'm committed to three.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so you can take your blindfold.
Eddie
Off and we can give her a napkin. Right, to wipe all it off.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you take and you use a blindfold. I mean, what is the blindfold?
Abby
That's someone's shirt.
Bobby Bones
That's lunchbox's underwear from soccer.
Eddie
That's a big.
Bobby Bones
That's where the prank was.
Lunchbox
No, it's a pimpinjoy shirt. I don't want to put ketchup on it.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so number one, which Amy eliminated quickly, was this bottle here of Whole Foods Organic Tomato ketchup. Oh, so number one, it was not Heinz. She knew from the start that wasn't Heinz.
Eddie
Good job.
Bobby Bones
So she's still in the mix. Good job.
Abby
Hey, Amy.
Bobby Bones
You're good.
Eddie
Amy, you can take the blindfold off, right?
Lunchbox
Yeah, but she likes.
Bobby Bones
Like this. Yes.
Lunchbox
Well, I was cleaning my hands.
Abby
I mean, you can take it off her floor.
Bobby Bones
She prefers us blindfolded.
Eddie
She does the rest of this.
Lunchbox
Hold on. I want. Now that I've selected it, I want to see it with my eyes because. Oh, I feel pretty good. Oh, my gosh.
Bobby Bones
Shoot.
Lunchbox
Is it four? It's not.
Bobby Bones
Do you want to change your mind after seeing it?
Eddie
Oh, she can't do that.
Lunchbox
No, I can't do that. I don't think that'd be fair. But now that I get.
Bobby Bones
Because this is regulated by the government and there's a scholarship on the line.
Lunchbox
Guys, three looks a little dark.
Bobby Bones
Well, so does Eddie. And, you know, you keep him.
Eddie
You like me.
Lunchbox
Hold on. I know I can't change my answer.
Bobby Bones
You know, you literally can change. You literally can change if you want. She's going back to four. Now she's going back to three.
Abby
What did she pick?
Bobby Bones
Three. But now she's going back to four. Now she feels like it's four. And I will let her change if she wants to.
Lunchbox
4. Tangy. 4 tangy. 4 tangy.
Eddie
4 Tangy. 4. Tangy.
Bobby Bones
Is she having a stroke?
Lunchbox
Okay, I'm gonna stick with three. Okay, I'm gonna stick with three.
Bobby Bones
Okay. So number two, which you did not pick, is something called Rao's ketchup. Made from home. Roma tomato. Okay.
Eddie
Homemade.
Bobby Bones
I guess they will not be a sponsor now.
Lunchbox
Oh, no.
Abby
They got good spaghetti sauce.
Eddie
They do, they do, they do.
Abby
Amy's like, no.
Lunchbox
Two. I was debating between two and three.
Bobby Bones
Okay. And so she picked three, sweating. But then she went to four, then back to three. And you're settling with three.
Lunchbox
I'm settling with three.
Bobby Bones
Amy, the ketchup connoisseur has selected number three as Heinz ketchup.
Lunchbox
Yes.
Bobby Bones
At number three, Heinz. Yes.
Lunchbox
And it's organic. That's tricky, because it does taste different.
Bobby Bones
Heinz tomato ketchup, organic. Amy is the greatest ketchup connoisseur.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Eddie
Amy, we will never doubt you again.
Lunchbox
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
You gotta find a way to monetize this. Well, this is like Joey when you found the hand, the twin. Hands on friends, the guy that had the hand twin.
Lunchbox
I will say I think I struggled a bit because the Heinz you have is organic. It does taste different.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Okay.
Lunchbox
You're the winner than the og.
Bobby Bones
You have no punishment you be celebrated.
Eddie
Today and your family's proud.
Bobby Bones
And now she's eating it again.
Abby
I'm gonna throw up.
Bobby Bones
Okay, we're out.
Lunchbox
Yes, Bones.
Bobby Bones

Bobby Bones
Hello, Hello.
Scuba Steve
Malcolm Gladwell here on this season of Revisionist History. We're going where no podcast has ever gone before. In combination with my 3 year old, we defend the show that everyone else hates. I'm talking, of course, about Paw Patrol.
Lunchbox
There's some things that really piss me off when it comes to Paw Patrol. It's pretty simple. It sucks.
Bobby Bones
My son watches Paw Patrol.
Abby
I hate it.
Scuba Steve
Everyone hates it except for me. Plus, we investigate everything from why American sirens are so unbearably loud to the impact of face blindness on social connection, to the secret behind Thomas's English muffins, perfect nooks and crannies. And also we go after Joe Rogan. Are you ready, Joe? I'm coming for you. You won't want to miss it. Listen to Revisionist history on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Bobby Bones
It's time for the good news with Bobby. Tell me something good, Amy. This couple got married. Their names are Olivia and Bradley.
Lunchbox
Cute.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. American couple just living life in the heartland. You know what I'm saying? Well, Olivia's last name, which she gives up, is Morris. Bradley's last name, which she then takes is Blizzard.
Lunchbox
Olivia Blizzard.
Bobby Bones
Olivia and Bradley Blizzard, huh? So, like, that has to be like a half strike against him when you meet him.
Lunchbox
Blizzard?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. That's a last name.
Lunchbox
I've never even heard of that as a last name.
Bobby Bones
I know, because it's just weird. It ain't bad. It's just weird.
Lunchbox
Well, I mean, I think of Dairy Queen.
Bobby Bones
Thank you for saying that. So what happens is they get married and then Dairy Queen's like, they're the Blizzards. So Dairy Queen comes in wedding reception, like, throws them at a DQ location. This big. First of all, engagement photo, all these gift cards, all this DQ swag, a custom Mrs. Blizzard jacket. They did a Blizzard bar at the wedding. That was in Collinsville, Texas. They sent a whole franchisee with a Blizzard. It was a whole Blizzard fest because dairy queen saw Mr. And Mrs. Blizzard.
Lunchbox
That's awesome.
Eddie
Amazing.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's cool. It's from People magazine, that story. But let's say you were dating a guy and you're 27 years old. You just start dating him, and it's just going okay. And his name is Jonathan Blizzard.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
If it's just okay. Like, that name is probably. If all things are even, you know, you don't want to be known as Amy Blizzard.
Lunchbox
But I could get past.
Bobby Bones
But you have to get past it is my point.
Lunchbox
Right. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So unless things are going good.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
That's gonna be like a mild strike against in the categories of should I break up or should we stay? If there's a question.
Lunchbox
Right. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I mean, you know, it'd be like if you met a gu.
Lunchbox
Seems so silly to say.
Bobby Bones
John Hippopotamus.
Lunchbox
Yeah, that would be.
Bobby Bones
You know, that would be weird. There's nothing wrong with the hippopotamus, but do you want to be Amy Hippopotamus? No.
Eddie
For the rest of your life?
Bobby Bones
Yes. But I thought that was cool. A Dairy Queen.
Lunchbox
Yeah. That is really cool.
Bobby Bones
And the blizzards.
Eddie
Yeah. Congratulations.
Bobby Bones
Congratulations to the blizzards.
Lunchbox
Do you think sometimes just, like, moving forward, if she gets asked her last name and it really doesn't matter, she's just like, Morris.
Bobby Bones
No, Blizzard.
Eddie
Right. French.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. My real last name. My wife changes how it's pronounced all the time.
Lunchbox
Okay. Blizzard.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. We're the Blizzards.
Lunchbox
Okay. I can do that.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. You don't have to, though. That's what's good.
Lunchbox
Yeah. How do you make hippopotamus better?
Bobby Bones
Oh, Hippotamos Hippopotamus.
Eddie
Oh, you're Greek.
Bobby Bones
Yes. Hippopotamus. That'd take a minute. All right. There you go. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good.
Lunchbox
Fun fact Friday, the Bobby Bones Show.
Bobby Bones
I think he's funny.
Lunchbox
He cracks me up sometimes. Big 98.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Before it went on, I was like, wow. Saved by the Bell. The new class had a longer run than the original Saved by the Bell and produced more episodes.
Lunchbox
Really?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. The new class sucked.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
But had a longer run. Wow. Yeah, exactly.
Eddie
Wow.
Abby
Wow, wow.
Bobby Bones
Fun fact Friday, Amy, you're up.
Lunchbox
So I don't know if this is, like, fun fun, but it's interesting. When a wasp stings a human, they emit this chemical that signals the rest of their colony to potentially attack you. So they basically drop pheromones on you that are like, yeah, we don't like you. So it could trigger a social response from their buddies.
Bobby Bones
So that would be why people get stung a bunch at once. Maybe because they're leaving that smell a message for everybody else to attack. Attack vulnerable giant. Basically, attack the vulnerable giant lunchbox.
Abby
Being a doctor is a very esteemed. What do you call it?
Bobby Bones
Profession.
Abby
Profession.
Lunchbox
Thank you.
Abby
But back in the day, they didn't have a test that diagnosed diabetes. So they'd taste your urine.
Lunchbox
No, they wouldn't.
Eddie
It's terrible.
Abby
And if it tasted like sweet fruit, that was the first sign of diabetes.
Bobby Bones
I would definitely have an assistant do that for me.
Eddie
As a doctor, you get your nurse to do that?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Who thought of that?
Bobby Bones
Nurse Betty.
Eddie
Will you taste this, please?
Bobby Bones
Huh? That's gross.
Abby
Disgusting.
Bobby Bones
So everybody here that has an iPhone, you've already promised that you will not use Apple's music app to make nuclear or chemical weapons. There's a line of the terms and conditions that you've agreed to. Can we never read them?
Eddie
Never.
Bobby Bones
That prohibits it.
Eddie
Were you planning on doing that?
Bobby Bones
No. But now that I know, I for sure will not do that. Morgan.
Lunchbox
The universe's average color is called cosmic latte.
Bobby Bones
Average color. Yeah. I took all the colors and, like, smash them all together.
Lunchbox
The color of our universe is cosmic latte. So in a 2002 study. Astronomy. Astronomers, esteemed. Thank you.
Bobby Bones
Professions.
Lunchbox
Astronomers thank you. There it is. Found that the light coming from galaxies average into a beige color.
Bobby Bones
So you just smush them all together. That's. That's what it is. Yeah. I'm colorblind. I don't really care. I guess when you hear color, I'm just so disinterested. Eddie.
Eddie
So the u. S. Supreme court building in Washington, D.C. has a basketball court on the fifth floor.
Bobby Bones
Wow.
Eddie
Yeah. So with all the judges, the clerks, whoever wants to let off some steam, for sure.
Bobby Bones
Breaking hips.
Eddie
Five. Five, baby.
Bobby Bones
Crossover. Supreme court justice Roberts. He's hip, torn out. Cats can actually survive drinking ocean water. Their kidneys can filter out the salt and use the water for hydration. Our kidneys can't. We will dehydrate if we drink ocean water.
Abby
Huh?
Bobby Bones
Cats can't drink it.
Eddie
So the cats are good.
Bobby Bones
Johnny cash's birth name was not Johnny. Do you know What?
Lunchbox
It was Amy, Jonathan.
Bobby Bones
He did not have any first name.
Eddie
Junior.
Bobby Bones
His name was J.R. yeah, I just named him that. And so when he enlisted in the Air Force, they said, you got to have a name because his name was really J R Dot. And so he's like, okay, John.
Eddie
No, he said, hello.
Bobby Bones
Hello, I'm John. I'm a new Air Force. And then one more is bad news. Hey, I don't know if this is fun or kind of fun like Amy would lead these. With factories in China produce roughly 90 of all Christmas goods and toys sold in America.
Lunchbox
Christmas may look a little different this year.
Bobby Bones
Christmas, the kids can have a few less dolls.
Abby
Oh, boy.
Lunchbox
Which, hey, yes. Maybe we need that.
Bobby Bones
Maybe we do. We do that. That's fun. Fact Friday, famous people with the most kids. Clint Eastwood comes in at number nine with eight known children. When they have to say known. Yeah, there's probably more, but Clint Eastwood has eight known children, several from different relationships. Mel Gibson has nine kids from a long marriage and then later relationships.
Lunchbox
Wow.
Bobby Bones
And I would guess that's not later marriages.
Lunchbox
Just relax.
Bobby Bones
How many are relationships? How many are relations? A good point. Eddie Murphy has 10 kids.
Lunchbox
Why don't these other guys get a known.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I know some do. A couple others have known.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Bobby Bones
But Eddie Murphy has 10 kids with several women, including Mel B. Spice Girls and his longtime partner, Paige. Marlon Brando, who died somewhat recently, had 11 known children. Dang. A famously private but complicated family history. What does that mean? He did it with a cousin. I don't want to know when it says complicated.
Lunchbox
Yeah, because he's pretty old, right?
Eddie
Yeah, he died in 2004.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Oh, it's been a while then.
Eddie
A little bit.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Charlie Chaplin. So what's crazy about Charlie Chaplin? Who? He was like the first hilarious guy, black and white movies, had the little mustache hat. Yeah. But the little mustache, which nobody else can have now, thanks to Hitler.
Eddie
Oh, right.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Charlie Chaplin had his Last kid of 11 at age 73.
Eddie
Atta boy.
Bobby Bones
With his wife, Una O' Neill. 73. Another kid. I'm surprised all the tools in the shed work at 73.
Lunchbox
Well, yeah, that's. Then Robert Nunner was in his 70s. He just had a baby.
Bobby Bones
I hear you, but I'm just. I'm surprised that happened. Yeah. Like to be that old. And not only for that to work, but for your body to still produce gasoline that allows the car to run.
Eddie
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
You know, Evander Holyfield, the boxer. Eleven children. Bob Marley. Get this. Bob Marley. Don't worry. About a thing. Eleven officially recognized children. Dang. So there's a new term. We had known. We had complicated history. Now we have From Bob Marley, 11 officially recognized children. While he married Rita Marley, he fathered children with multiple women. All right, moving on up. These three are still. Two are alive. Nick Cannon, as of 2025. Now they put parentheses on that one. This is another new way to define it. 12 children.
Lunchbox
Yeah, because I think he plans on making more.
Bobby Bones
He fathered children with multiple women, including Mariah Carey. Several models known for embracing fatherhood openly. I think a lot of guys would embrace fatherhood openly if they could get a lot of models pregnant.
Eddie
Yeah, but, like, fatherhood. Does that mean he's, like, around, he's being a father, or is he just being.
Lunchbox
I think so.
Bobby Bones
I don't know.
Eddie
Yeah. Or is he just. Just the.
Bobby Bones
The question is, how present can you be for 12 kids and 12 different houses.
Lunchbox
House. Good point.
Bobby Bones
So financially, probably. Maybe. I have no idea. But I'm just looking at how detailed. I mean, your calendar would have to be all kids all the time. They're playing sports. You got a game over here. So I don't know what that means. I'm sure they have something worked out, but. Yeah, when it's like, 12 children, he wants to have more. I think he just likes having sex with models and Mariah Carey, and then babies just happen.
Lunchbox
Yeah, No, I think he really.
Bobby Bones
I think he says that.
Lunchbox
You think he says that?
Eddie
What, that he likes a lot of hymns around.
Lunchbox
Yeah, he wants, like.
Bobby Bones
I would agree with you if they were, like, also had. Also had kids with sixes.
Lunchbox
Oh, like six on the scale of.
Bobby Bones
Rigs, one to ten. Yeah, Just. Just. Yeah. If we had a lot of kids with regs, I would say I agree with that. But because he keeps knocking up models and Mariah Carey, I think he just likes hooking up with models. Like, and not. Okay, you know, putting the hard hat.
Lunchbox
Well, maybe he has hooked up with those. They're just not officially recognized.
Bobby Bones
Well, no, it doesn't say officially recognized, so I'm gonna push back on that. According to this article, I have no idea. Elon Musk. 14 children. Wow.
Eddie
And they all have crazy names, right?
Bobby Bones
Some do.
Eddie
Like decimal and.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah.
Lunchbox
Poland.
Bobby Bones
He has a little Dewey. Not all do. And some of them, I hear, weren't through normal means.
Lunchbox
What?
Bobby Bones
Like, he wants to populate the Earth.
Lunchbox
So he just provided some and then some.
Bobby Bones
You would see, like, the DMS where he was, like, dming girls, being like, hey, I want you to father my Child.
Lunchbox
Oh, my gosh. What a weirdo.
Bobby Bones
Allegedly. I just read all this and saw this. Yeah, he's got 14 kids. DMX. He did die, but he had 15 kids.
Lunchbox
We're all speechless.
Eddie
That's a lot of practices.
Bobby Bones
That's a lot of touring.
Eddie
It's a lot.
Bobby Bones
The late rapper had a very large family, many of whom he mentioned in interviews and his music. Yeah, DMX with 15 children. Can't even fit all those eggs in a carton. There is somebody who I didn't put on the list, who actually is the leader of celebrities that have kids. But I didn't know him. He was very famous in the 50s. His name is Screaming Jay Hawkins. He had 33 kids. How?
Eddie
Well, how.
Bobby Bones
Let me explain it to you. See, there's a bird.
Eddie
Sit down, Amy.
Bobby Bones
There's a B. There's a pollen. They had 33 kids. Wow.
Lunchbox
I've never even heard of this person screaming Jay Hawkins.
Bobby Bones
That's why I said, I know he was either, but he was a piece big in the 50s.
Lunchbox
I know, but he should be famous just for that. Well, 33.
Bobby Bones
The one person I didn't get to honorable mention. Eddie.
Eddie
No, I got four.
Bobby Bones
Four kids.
Eddie
Four kids.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
It's a lot.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Yeah. But it didn't say known, and it doesn't say.
Eddie
No, they're all known.
Bobby Bones
It also doesn't say officially what they say about Marlon Brando. Complicated.
Eddie
Screaming Jay Hawkins was a musician.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Screaming Jay Hawkins was a pioneer for music in the 50s. His child count, they say the exact number is hard to say, but what they know of is 33. However, Screaming Jay bragged that his number between 57 and 60.
Eddie
Okay. He was telling everyone. You'll never believe.
Bobby Bones
That was his thing. That was his thing. Every city tried to have another kid. Anyway, I hope everybody's good.
Lunchbox
So he was hooking up with the regs.
Bobby Bones
Oh, he's hooking up with. He's probably hooking up with the ds, like, in anything that allowed A into B. He probably was.
Lunchbox
And this is coming from a group of regs. Like, we're not, like, calling anybody, you know.
Bobby Bones
Hey, speak for yourself. Is that a term? Did you make that up?
Eddie
I just made it up.
Bobby Bones
I don't like it. I don't like that term. It's time for the good News with Amy.
Lunchbox
So I gotta shout out Sabrina Hill. She is an Air Force veteran, a reserve firefighter, a mom of three, and she just earned her associate degree in nursing. So all of that in itself is pretty amazing. All that she's Accomplished and what she's doing. Then at her graduation, her son Blaine, who's an army specialist and has been deployed overseas and hadn't seen her in, like, almost a year, worked with her school to surprise her at graduation. So got with the chancellor and was able to be there and surprised her when she was graduating. And it was super special, especially since she was like, wait a second. You're supposed to be deployed?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I would suck if I were trying to surprise somebody coming from overseas serving, because I'd for sure be like, I can't keep it anymore. I'm coming away. I'm only two hours out. I'd spoil it. I love these videos. I'll watch them every time they pop up. The two videos that I watch every time. And that make me emotional. One when, like, a mom or a dad surprises their kids or family when they come from deployment, and it's at a football game, and it's like homecoming. And, you know, her cousin Brutus has got a walker now, not her dad. And all of a sudden, the dad's like, I'm here every time. I'm like, oh. And then I'm also like, why they name him Brutus? That sucks. And the other one is, whenever minor league baseball players will be sitting in an office, and the manager of the minor league team's like, sean, you really been working hard. And he'll be like, am I getting sent down, coach? It's like, well, there's more to it than that. It's like, we see the work you're putting in, and sometimes it pays off, and sometimes it doesn't. It's just timing. But, Sean, you're going to the majors every time.
Morgan
I'm like, sean, I was rooting for you, buddy.
Bobby Bones
Never even knew Sean was.
Eddie
That's all.
Bobby Bones
Don't even care about the Pirates. And I'm like, sean, you're my dude. So those are good. Yeah, that's a good story. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good. This is Molly from New Hampshire listening.
Lunchbox
To you guys talk about your super pet peeve. And, Bobby, you were saying yours was. Most people are like, hello. Anyways, I went to call with one of my super pet peeves, which is.
Bobby Bones
When people say, oh, my gosh, I.
Lunchbox
Was bawling my eyes out. You can't cry your eyes out.
Bobby Bones
It literally drives me insane.
Lunchbox
I was crying so hard, you know, to say I was bawling my eyes out.
Bobby Bones
You know how you guys sometimes feel that I am ridiculous? And you go, man, the Stuff you think? I don't even get it. You guys do that to me a lot. Yeah, I feel that way about that one.
Lunchbox
Okay, so now you see.
Bobby Bones
But there's a difference. No, the reason hello is weird. It's not because I don't like hello. It's because on Scuba Steve's phone, it said my name, and he still answered like he had no idea who was calling. It could have been anybody in the world. Hello? Dude, you know it's me. Why answer so puzzled? Like, that is way different than her just not liking an expression. Even things like over 100. You cannot be over 100, right?
Lunchbox
And that's what she's saying. You can't bow your eyes.
Bobby Bones
Can't do it. Watch. Watch and see.
Eddie
No, no, no, no.
Bobby Bones
Don't do it. Don't do it. I prove it. I hear you. I hear you. But, Molly, you have every right to have that pet peeve, because apparently all mine are stupid, according to all my friends here. Thank you guys for being here. If you ever want to comment on something or you want us to talk about something, just call our voicemail line. 877-77-Bobby. It's the same as our phone number. 8, 777-Bobby. Now time for the morning corny. The morning corny. Them, them, them, them.
Lunchbox
Stop it with all the corny jokes.
Bobby Bones
Me?
Lunchbox
What are you gonna do? Call the crops.
Bobby Bones
Okay, okay. That whole thing, I was so lost. Microphone was on, and she's like. Then she was doing a play test, test.
Lunchbox
One, two, three corny jokes.
Bobby Bones
No, we get it.
Lunchbox
Call the cross.
Eddie
Yes, we get it.
Bobby Bones
Be like, hey, this one's a little unorthodox.
Lunchbox
Well, sometimes I. I do a setup like that, and you're like, you did a meme.
Bobby Bones
You did a written meme. Spoken.
Lunchbox
I did a spoken meme.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. So that's funny, though.
Lunchbox
How do you want me to set it up?
Bobby Bones
No, no, you don't.
Lunchbox
Have you just kind of said, all right, this is gonna be a little different. Okay, guys.
Bobby Bones
Okay, we're ready.
Lunchbox
Okay. All right. Them. Stop it with all the corny jokes.
Bobby Bones
Me?
Lunchbox
What are you gonna do? Call the crops.
Bobby Bones
It's funny. That was the morning corny. I was just a little taken aback because I did not know what you were saying. And you went them, and I went them. I just repeated you.
Lunchbox
That was a little weird.
Bobby Bones
It was a little weird.
Lunchbox
Bones.

Giving yourself that agency to not just be one thing, right? I don't have to be the perception that is crafted or the version of me that everyone is kind of projecting onto me. Like I am having my human experience and it is faceted. It's so faceted and it's fascinating. May is Mental Health Awareness Month and Deeply well is a sanctuary for your healing. I'm Debbie Brown, healer well being expert teacher and fellow seeker. And each week we explore what it means to become whole through soul expanding conversations and practices. Why focus on tiny Joys? Well, because they remind us of what it means to be human. They anchor us in the present moment and they create ripples of gratitude that nourish our spirit. Tiny joys are acts of self love. To hear this and more ways to prioritize your peace. Listen to deeply well from the Black Effect podcast Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts at. And T connecting changes everything.
Bobby Bones
Hello, Hello.
Scuba Steve
Malcolm Glaville here on this season of Revisionist History. We're going where no podcast has ever gone before. In combination with my 3 year old, we defend the show that everyone else hates. I'm talking, of course, about Paw Patrol.
Lunchbox
There's some things that really piss me off when it comes to paw patrol. It's pretty simple. It sucks.
Bobby Bones
My son watches Paw Patrol.
Abby
I hate it.
Scuba Steve
Everyone hates it except for me. Plus, we investigate everything from why American sirens are so unbearably loud to the impact of face blindness on social connection, to the secret behind Thomas's English muffins, perfect nooks and crannies. And also we go after Joe Rogan. Are you ready, Joe? I'm coming for you. You won't want to miss it. Listen to revisionist history on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Bobby Bones
My grandma and I used to watch Wheel of Fortune all the time. I was terrible at it. I was good at Jeopardy. I watch that every day by myself. But I watch Wheel of Fortune and my grandma, who was like 70, would dominate me. That would be the one show that I think I'd say no to because I would go on and embarrass myself and I would be bad at it. Oh, are you good at it?
Lunchbox
I mean, I'm not totally terrible, but I would say yes just so that I could spin the wheel.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I'd rather not go on and finish last. Like, it'd be like, what am I gonna get into the world's strongest man competition against those other big dudes just because I want to be on tv? No way I'll get dominated.
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah. I just think it'd be fun.
Bobby Bones
So Wheel of Fortune, how good are you? One to ten?
Lunchbox
Let me think about it. Probably five.
Bobby Bones
Okay. I'm. I'm a two. Two?
Lunchbox
There's no way you're a two.
Bobby Bones
I'm a two.
Lunchbox
No, no, you're doing.
Bobby Bones
No, I appreciate that, but I'm awful at that.
Lunchbox
No way.
Bobby Bones
You're too Eddie. You think you're pretty good, huh?
Eddie
Pretty good. I'd say six, seven. Yeah. Because you can spin the wheel over and over and keep guessing letters. I mean, but you. Whenever there's like.
Bobby Bones
But you're not gonna win that way. You have to actually know the puzzles. I mean, but you say seven.
Eddie
I'd say seven. I'm pretty good.
Lunchbox
I love how Eddie and I are higher than you and we're both dyslexic.
Bobby Bones
That's true. I showed you how weak I am, though. Lunchbox, Wheel of Fortune. How. How good do you think you are? Honestly?
Abby
I hate to admit it, but I'm a one.
Bobby Bones
Okay, there you go.
Abby
Like, I'm an absolute one. I watch that and they'll get it, and I'm just like, oh, that's crazy. I don't know how you knew that. I don't know what that is. Cool. Next.
Bobby Bones
So we have a friend named Brent who runs our radio station in Bakersfield, and Brent has been on a bunch of game shows. And so they reached out to Brent and said, hey, do you have anybody you'd recommend to be on Wheel of Fortune? Stop.
Abby
Stop.
Bobby Bones
Well, Are you freaking kidding me? You're not gonna be mad. Lunchboxes. You're not good.
Abby
I don't care. A1. I'll still go on there. But who did he ask? Who do you recommend?
Bobby Bones
Wait, what?
Lunchbox
I. I. Well, I've just. You can't.
Bobby Bones
Are you second guessing you're five now?
Lunchbox
No, not at all. I'm thinking, like, you're gonna. If you send somebody other than Lunchbox, this is gonna be a problem.
Bobby Bones
No, he's never said he's been good, so.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but he loves games.
Eddie
He just said he was bad.
Lunchbox
Who cares?
Bobby Bones
He's the one who said he was.
Eddie
Good, and I didn't even know about this, so I should go.
Lunchbox
Wait a second. Bobby should go.
Bobby Bones
No, I'm not going. I'm out. I tapped out. I would not want to do.
Lunchbox
What's the deal?
Bobby Bones
Okay, so who do you think, if we were sending, someone should go beyond Wheel of Fortune lunchbox, even though he sucks and admits it, we're trying to.
Lunchbox
Put him on a game show.
Bobby Bones
We haven't been. He has. We've tried. We tried 100 times to get him to go out there. He won't do it.
Lunchbox
Okay, fine. Send me.
Bobby Bones
How disappointed are you gonna be if it's not you?
Lunchbox
Gosh, I feel like My grandma would be so proud of me if I went on there.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
So your grandma, like, no.
Bobby Bones
Would you be disappointed, Eddie, if it wasn't you?
Eddie
I mean, now I would be.
Bobby Bones
Lunchbox.
Abby
I would be a 10 out of 10 disappointed because I am made for that. I am made for game shows. Like, I may not be great, but at least it's going to be dramatic when I spin that wheel. And I guess. And if I don't get it right, I'm going to fall off the stage. I mean, they need me on Wheel of Fortune. Oh, my gosh. Like, if they want, like, maybe they'll have a battle of the bads. Whatever. Just put me on.
Bobby Bones
What a terrible show. Battle the bads. Nobody ever gets it. Four episodes. Four episodes later.
Abby
I don't know, Ryan, do you believe in miracles? Like, do you. I mean, that's.
Bobby Bones
He just said he was a 1 out of 10.
Abby
The underdog story of me going on Wheel of Fortune and coming home with $500,000.
Bobby Bones
Okay, I need to get to what we're doing here. So I have the email because they reached out to Brent and said, do you have any referrals as we are casting Wheel of Fortune? Okay.
Eddie
Do you have referrals?
Bobby Bones
I didn't write it.
Lunchbox
So he sent you that, being like, Bobby. So do you have.
Bobby Bones
No, he said, I sent this. Just wanted you to know.
Lunchbox
Oh, he. He sent it on his own?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
He made the decision. Okay, come on.
Bobby Bones
He said, hey, Richard, who is the head of casting? Someone to talk to for sure as you are casting. And he writes the person's name. He's married and is a dad, so, I mean, that takes you out.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I'm a divorced mom.
Bobby Bones
He works.
Eddie
Wait for it.
Bobby Bones
In radio on a national syndicated show based out of Nashville, Tennessee. Is really funny with a great personality.
Eddie
Hold on, Lunchbox. That could be me.
Abby
That's definitely not you, Eddie.
Bobby Bones
Hold on. He has a lot of energy. He will be great on the show.
Lunchbox
Well, Eddie does go whoa.
Bobby Bones
A lot.
Eddie
Yeah, yeah, I can do that on the show.
Abby
I gotta start practicing.
Bobby Bones
He is a big Dallas Cowboys fan. Let's go.
Eddie
What? Oh, my goodness.
Lunchbox
This is gonna be problematic. I don't even.
Bobby Bones
Hold on. He's a big Dallas Cowboys fan and loves to cook.
Lunchbox
Oh, my God.
Bobby Bones
You can reach out to him. And he gave the email and your cell phone number. So if you get a call, it will not be spam.
Eddie
When was this sent? Because I did get a call yesterday.
Bobby Bones
That I did not from what area code?
Eddie
It was from Michigan.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I Don't know.
Lunchbox
Michigan. Probably not.
Eddie
Yeah, that meant I. I didn't find it.
Bobby Bones
I don't know. It might be okay, but I'd be looking out for it, but. Yeah, I know. That's it. He sent it. About Eddie.
Eddie
Wow, this is amazing. I've never thought about being on Wheel.
Bobby Bones
Of Fortune, but you said you're a seven, so you're the person that deserved it the most.
Eddie
This makes sense.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so everybody gets 10 seconds. Amy, 10 seconds. What would you like to say?
Lunchbox
Well, Eddie, I'm excited for you.
Bobby Bones
Wait, he's not on it was recommended to the casting director.
Lunchbox
Okay. And Lunchbox, I feel really bad for you.
Bobby Bones
I don't know.
Lunchbox
I feel torn. I don't know how to act like I would be excited for Eddie, but that just sucks because Eddie hasn't been dying to get on a game show, and Lunchbox has, so it's.
Bobby Bones
Lunchbox hasn't been because he's done absolutely nothing to get on a game show.
Lunchbox
He talks about it, right?
Bobby Bones
Everybody talks.
Abby
Talk.
Bobby Bones
So I don't feel bad for him because we've given him opportunities. We even said you can take time off work and go to LA and try to get it, and he doesn't do it. So I don't feel bad for him.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Bobby Bones
It's like his business deals. He always has ideas. He never does it. So I don't feel bad for people who don't actually try what they want.
Lunchbox
Okay. I do.
Bobby Bones
Great.
Lunchbox
But this is cool. I mean, we should probably train.
Bobby Bones
He hasn't made it, guys.
Lunchbox
I know, but just in case, like, you know how.
Bobby Bones
Also, I had nothing to do with it. And secondly, I'm glad when you guessed it. How good are you? Because if Lunchbox said 9, I'd have felt bad. That's where I would have felt bad, because I thought he was the best. I don't feel bad because he talks a bunch of crap and then. But I would have felt bad had he been like, yeah, I'm really good. I'm a nine at this. I've been like, oh, and if I.
Eddie
Go, I'm trying to win it. I'm not trying to be in the battle of the bad.
Bobby Bones
Battle of the bat.
Lunchbox
He.
Bobby Bones
He just created Battle the Bads concept, Amy.
Lunchbox
True. Okay, well, whatever. We could. They. How do you train? They have at home. Wheel.
Bobby Bones
He hasn't made the game yet, so get the app. I would answer every unknown call. Ten seconds. Lunchbox, go.
Abby
It's a joke. I mean, you want to talk about personality? Eddie has no personality. He doesn't have thoughts of his own. Bobby's not going to be there to tell him to guess this, and he won't know what to do. I don't know how he's going to do it.
Bobby Bones
I mean.
Abby
Oh, yeah, I'm Eddie. He has nothing. What's. Whoa. That's so stupid. It's just because they're both Cowboys fans that he recommended it.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I think. I think Brett's 49ers fan.
Eddie
I don't think he's a Cowboys fan.
Abby
So dumb. It is so dumb.
Bobby Bones
He gives up on his arguments so quick. Eddie, anything you want to say?
Eddie
This is real Easy lunchbox. You suck.
Bobby Bones
They picked me.
Lunchbox
They haven't picked you yet.
Abby
Some dude in California. Some guy that runs a radio station. Picture. You know, casting director.
Lunchbox
No, Brett, why are you saying some dude? I mean Brent.
Bobby Bones
Okay. You know. Oh, my gosh. That's why Amy didn't get picked.
Lunchbox
I know. Stop. I know, Brent. I don't know why I just said Brett.
Bobby Bones
Hey, Allison over here, she said I'm dyslexic. That you said nothing to do with the name.
Lunchbox
I know.
Abby
Read the name. You know the name.
Lunchbox
Okay, I know the name is Brent. I don't. Sometimes y' all ever mess up. And I also caught that myself.
Eddie
Okay, look, this is awesome.
Bobby Bones
Maybe we try to get him on Monday or something to see what's up. See, maybe we talk to the casting.
Eddie
Director and maybe why he decided to go this route.
Lunchbox
Yeah, maybe that's why I just called him Brett, because he also didn't pick me up.
Eddie
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Although Amy's score was higher than lunchboxes. Yeah, he said one, so it doesn't bother me. If had he said nine, I would.
Lunchbox
Have been bothered and my grandma would have been okay.
Bobby Bones
Your grandma's not coming back to life. My grandma would have been excited, too. We can't bring her back. Wake up in the morning. But Steve, Red habit trying to put you through M riding his wigs.

Bobby Bones
Bobby Bone show. Bonehead story of the day.
Abby
This story comes to us from Yellow Yellowstone National Park. A 47 year old man from Florida was visiting the park when he sees a bison. He's like, oh, gotta get up close.
Bobby Bones
Gotta get a selfie. For sure.
Abby
Gotta get a picture with that thing. So he gets closer and closer and bison went bison, bam. Gored him.
Bobby Bones
I get it. You wanna take a selfie. I get it. I wanna take selfies too, with cool things. So instead of saying don't take selfies with large animals, it should be don't take selfies when large animals can quickly get to you. You can't take. It's a distance thing.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
If it's in like in the background, 75 yards. Take a selfie. Look at the bison back there. Wild animal that close to you. A bison is like six and a half feet tall, but on all four.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So not standing up on its hind legs. Then it's like nine and a half feet tall. So. And they weigh about 2,000 pounds. So if they decide that they want to, as Lunchbox would say, go bison, you go by son. I get it. I like to take selfies with things behind me. Not a big selfie guy of just me, but like the guy who was taking the selfie in Rome at the cathedral or not or the coliseum and impaled himself. Like I get it. But there's a risk reward to getting so close to the edge or so close to a bison. So I think telling people don't do it isn't working. Telling people do it from a reasonable distance. I think that's probably. That's how I do politics. That's how I do politics though. I want to be crazy polar like everybody else is.
Lunchbox
Okay. But do most people know how to judge a reasonable distance?
Bobby Bones
It's more than what you think.
Lunchbox
Like we need to like.
Bobby Bones
Yes, wherever you think is reasonable. Take four more steps up. That's what I would say. Okay, I'm Lunchbox.
Abby
That's your bonehead story of the day.
Bobby Bones
Wish me luck. I have a pickleball tournament this weekend. My very first ever pickleball tournament where I go to a place where there are other pickleball players. We play against each other, and there's a bracket, and you play through the bracket, and the person that wins the bracket wins. That's a tournament. That's a tournament I'm playing in that wins.
Lunchbox
What? Like, do you know what first place gets?
Eddie
Ooh, a trophy, right?
Lunchbox
Or money.
Bobby Bones
I don't know.
Abby
Gotta be a prize.
Bobby Bones
A friend? I don't know.
Eddie
Your partner? Sister? Friend?
Bobby Bones
I have no idea. I don't care. Ribbon. The glory.
Eddie
What do you mean you don't care? You want a trophy, dude, after a.
Bobby Bones
Big turn, I don't want a trophy. Where am I gonna put it?
Abby
Right there on your desk.
Bobby Bones
Nothing. I'll just stand on a podium, be like I did and take a picture. Oh, but I don't know that I'm gonna win. I've never played in one before, so I really don't know how good I am with my little crew. I'm the best, but we're just all idiots, so I don't know. You're the best idiot of our crew. Yes, but our crew's not that good. And so I'm gonna go play and see if I'm any good. And I'm playing in two different tournaments. It's a two day tournament, so I'm playing singles and then I'm playing doubles.
Lunchbox
Okay, so you are playing singles. I thought so.
Bobby Bones
I play singles. That's what I play Most.
Lunchbox
Okay. @ iHeart. I was telling our boss, Tom Pullman, like, I don't know what he was talking about. Maybe one day we'll do an I heart pickleball thing and I'll kill him.
Bobby Bones
I kill him.
Lunchbox
I said. I said, bobby, Bobby's entering a tournament. And he was like, really? I said, yeah, doubles and singles. And he's like, huh. I thought pickleball was always doubles. And I was like, well, maybe he's just playing by himself, but I don't know.
Bobby Bones
I'm playing two people by myself. I'll show both of you. No, single. Not as many people play singles because it's definitely harder on the body.
Lunchbox
So what are you doing to prepare, like?
Bobby Bones
Well, I haven't played in a couple weeks because I. We were gone.
Lunchbox
Okay. So. But I mean, are you gonna. You're. You're gonna stretch properly and.
Eddie
Yeah, well, he's been training for this.
Abby
Yeah, he's been training for drinking water.
Bobby Bones
I'm stretching. I'm getting.

Eddie
Well, you should find that out.
Abby
No, I mean, I know your email.
Bobby Bones
It's in an email somewhere, but I've never been to the place where it is. I don't even know the name of it.
Lunchbox
Okay, well, I. Because I have a place right by me where it could be.
Bobby Bones
What's called.
Lunchbox
Well, I don't want to say.
Bobby Bones
