[Eddie]

He gets home and calls the answer in.

[Eddie]

[Amy]

I appreciate your sitting there.

[Bobby Bones]

Sorry, we're doing a bit.

[Amy]

It's great.

[Lunchbox]

Break.

[Bobby Bones]

We're doing a bit.

[Amy]

Can you repeat the question?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. What's the smallest planet in the solar system? Not Pluto.

[Amy]

It's not Saturn. It's not Jupiter.

[Bobby Bones]

Five seconds. It's not.

[Amy]

Is it Uranus or Mars?

[Bobby Bones]

All right, go ahead.

[Amy]

I feel like it's.

[Bobby Bones]

I need an answer.

[Amy]

Mercury.

[Bobby Bones]

That answer is correct. It's the anonymous inbox. Anonymous inbox. There's a question to be asked. Hello, Bobby Bones. I have an issue with a few of my friends who are always late. Not five minutes late. 20, 30, sometimes 45 minutes late. first I brushed it off. Life happens. But after years of this, it's starting to feel less accidental and more on purpose. I'm always the one sitting at the restaurant alone, guarding the table, or standing awkwardly at the bar pretending I'm just early. Do you stop inviting people who are chronically late to things you're doing? Is this a lower your expectation situation, or do you set boundaries and cut them out of your life? Signed always on time? It's very much a lower your expectations and then don't just invite them places when they have to be on time.

[Amy]

Yeah, you don't have to cut them out.

[Bobby Bones]

They can be in things where it doesn't matter what time they arrive, but they're not coming to things where they have to be on time.

[Amy]

You could also. Have you had a conversation?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I'm sure people that are late, they know what they're doing. They just don't care enough to change it. If you're chronically late, you know what you're doing all the time, you don't have respect for the other people. So I have friends that are chronically late. There are certain things we invite them to, certain things we don't. If they're just coming over to the house, then we know they're probably going to be 20, 30, 40 minutes late. And that's an understanding. But if it's something where you have to be somewhere on time, they just don't get invited. It's on them. They're going to lose out. But you can't continue to be disappointed by the things they continue to do. They've given you every signal on how they're going to live their life. You can say to them, man, when you guys are late, it makes it really hard on me. And if they don't change, then you have to change. I don't think you have to kill them or anything, but there are certain expectations you have to have with people that have given you reasons to have those expectations. And yeah, they don't respect your time. They probably would grow up in a culture, though, where being on time wasn't the thing.

[Eddie]

Boom.

[Bobby Bones]

No, not boom.

[Eddie]

That's it. That's how we grew up. I remember growing up in the culture where, like, man, if you. You were gonna be somewhere like nine, if the party starts at nine o', clock, right. You get there different.

[Bobby Bones]

The party's different because there are multiple people there.

[Eddie]

Okay, fine. Dinner. Dinner. Meet us at the restaurant. Seven. No problem. We'll be there at 7:30, 7:45.

[Bobby Bones]

Dude, that's so disrespectful. That's so disrespectful.

[Eddie]

And never did we see it as disrespectful. It was just kind of how it goes.

[Amy]

So was everybody showed up that late?

[Eddie]

Yeah, sometimes people were early, sometimes people were later.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't live on an island. It's not island time.

[Eddie]

You know, you used to tell me the. The wrong time.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I would do that with a lot of people. And then I just understood, I'm not having the people around anymore. If it's something where we have to be on time and they're not on time, they just will not be invited to come because it's not worth it. So they've given you a reason to feel that way. Act accordingly. Hey, cut them out of your life. I'm mad now. That's so disrespectful of people cut out. Seems a little extreme, but you have to just figure out what friends can do. What? That's the advice that I would give you. Now, if it's a work situation, you don't. They don't work there anymore. That's also that. But that's. That's friends. So that's what I'll say. Thank you. Close it up. I've got my Valentine's Day figured out, and I'm pretty happy about it. So we talk about it. And not every couple celebrates Valentine's Day the same. And it's hard because it's on weekend night. I think it's a Saturday night. Celebrate mine on the 12th this year.

[Amy]

Why are you doing it a little different?

[Bobby Bones]

Smart. I'm asking Eddie, do you know about our Valentine's Day plans? I don't. So we were going to dinner. Me, my wife, Eddie, his wife. Last week it got canceled, and so we rescheduled it to the 12th. And my wife said that counts as Valentine's dinner.

[Lunchbox]

She said that?

[Bobby Bones]

Yep.

[Eddie]

Whoa.

[Amy]

Does yours count?

[Eddie]

Hey, I haven't asked, but maybe I'll Ask her. Hey, we're having this dinner with Bobby and Caitlyn.

[Bobby Bones]

We're going to a nice place, but.

[Amy]

The 12th Valentine's on the 14th, so.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I.

[Eddie]

And the fact that your wife said that, that counts. I mean, she said it so is bought.

[Amy]

Oh, sweet. Bobby's gonna pay for Eddie's Valentine.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my gosh, that's amazing.

[Bobby Bones]

That wasn't part of the deal.

[Amy]

Yeah, but you know, you're probably gonna pay for the dinner.

[Eddie]

Are you?

[Bobby Bones]

I often do.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I know, but I often offer. I get my wallet out. I'm like, oh, okay. No, thanks, Bobby.

[Bobby Bones]

Appreciate that.

[Eddie]

That.

[Bobby Bones]

Dude, it's a good point. Maybe I shouldn't pay for his dinner then, because it is Valentine's Day.

[Lunchbox]

True.

[Eddie]

Okay, well, if you don't pay, then it's definitely our Valentine's Day too.

[Bobby Bones]

But do you want me to pay? What? Could you still count it as your Valentine's dinner if I paid? Amy, let me ask you before you.

[Amy]

Well, I mean, I guess he could, but he needs to do something else for his wife.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, why? Why?

[Eddie]

If Bobby's already doing that with his wife and we're at the same dinner.

[Amy]

Table now, we're talking about if Bobby picks up the bill. Okay, then use that money to give your wife something else, because you already, like, return the Christmas present you got her. And now here we are, Valentine's Day, and you need to get her something.

[Eddie]

I forgot about the Christmas present. You're right, man. That's a good. Dude, that's awesome that your wife did that, though.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm almost positive she said, you can count it. Or maybe she.

[Amy]

Don't blame her.

[Bobby Bones]

Maybe she said, are you gonna count it? Either way.

[Lunchbox]

I heard count.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, either way. I didn't even factor it in. And they changed the date of dinner.

[Eddie]

Big difference.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know, man. I think that connection can be drawn. And, you know, she's pregnant, so she doesn't feel good a lot of times.

[Amy]

Yeah, that's what I mean. Like, if she's gonna get dressed and put forth the effort of, like, getting ready and going out, then, yeah, I would be like, yeah, let's do this. Don't. Don't do another dinner two nights later. You know, That's a lot.

[Eddie]

I love the idea. I love the idea. And if you pay, even better, dude, maybe. Maybe I get a roses afterwards and that kind of counts.

[Lunchbox]

You want Bobby to buy those, too?

[Eddie]

No, no, no, I got it. I got that. I got that covered.

[Bobby Bones]

I probably need to recheck, but I think the 12th counts as Valentine's dinner.

[Amy]

Yeah, I mean, I guess that makes sense. You're still gonna do something else, though.

[Bobby Bones]

What?

[Lunchbox]

No, not. Darn.

[Bobby Bones]

You're gonna do it.

[Eddie]

It's over.

[Amy]

Do a little something. Gift giving is your love language.

[Bobby Bones]

You can't tell me what I'm doing and what my language is.

[Female Guest]

I'm not.

[Bobby Bones]

But anyway, I thought we got. I thought we kind of.

[Eddie]

That's pretty good, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Got a little bonus, you know what I mean?

[Eddie]

Really good.

Then after the concert, tune in to the Super Bowl 60 pregame show on NBC.

[Bobby Bones]

It's time for the good news with Bobby. Tell me something good. I don't know if he listens to the show, but want to shout out Kenneth Harrell in St. Louis. Dead. Bad weather, like a lot of the country did, and his roads were bad in his neighborhood, and they weren't doing much about it. So he just went and rented a skid steer and did it himself.

[Eddie]

Oh, that's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Paid 500 bucks and rented the thing, which is a. It's a small construction vehicle. It's like a bulldozer, just a small one. And so he just paid for it and started clearing the streets.

[Female Guest]

That's awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, they're not coming here, so I guess I'll go do it. Paid his own money. A local restaurant owner saw him doing it and was like, hey, would you come and, like, help out with some of the spaces there? So he did, and it just turned into a big thing. Like, they should go fund me for, like, a thousand dollars. Max it out a thousand, but go find me, like, a thousand bucks for him. He paid 500 for that and the work that he did. But a big shout out because he wasn't looking for money and he used his own money to Kenneth Harrell in St. Louis, who made everybody's life a little easier in St. Louis. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good bones fun that Friday. I'll go first. Despite the myths, your hair and fingernails don't keep growing after you die, because people have often said, your hair keeps growing. In that case, you'd open up, you know, whatever you're buried in, and it'd just be all hair. It would look like 80s hair band.

[Eddie]

Good point.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So it grows for a second, but it doesn't grow forever. You know what grows as you get older, though?

[Eddie]

Your nose.

[Bobby Bones]

Your nose. All people have huge noses. It'd be an honor to have a long nose because that means you lived a long time. Yeah. Noses and ears. All right, Amy, you're up.

[Amy]

Music lights up nearly all parts of the brain, including the hippocampus and the amygdala. The Area is tied to memory and emotion. So if you're looking to reward your brain, stir up feelings, trigger memories, maybe just help you feel good, not necessarily sad. Listen to music.

[Bobby Bones]

As part of David Hasselhoff's divorce settlement with Pamela bach back in 2008, when one of the things he fought for was the catchphrase, don't hassle the hoff. He won it.

[Eddie]

Never heard that either.

[Bobby Bones]

Haven't either.

[Amy]

Either.

[Eddie]

He doesn't use that more. Haven't either.

[Bobby Bones]

Speaking of yours about music, you know he's an artist, right? David Hasself.

[Amy]

I didn't know that.

[Bobby Bones]

It's massive in Germany.

[Amy]

Oh, I think that part.

[Bobby Bones]

That's not a joke, by the way. I was waiting for the punch. No, no, no. He's massive in Germany.

[Amy]

I think that part I did. Unfortunately for David Hasselhoff, all I know, he has other things going on in his life. Is he still alive?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

That.

[Amy]

That'd be one I'd be unsure about if you ever asked me. But all I think about him is when he was drunk eating that hamburger, and his daughter recorded him. And it was so sad.

[Bobby Bones]

He's 73 years old.

[Eddie]

What was wrong with him eating the hamburger?

[Bobby Bones]

Was he saying he was wasted?

[Amy]

Yeah, it just was a really sad moment. And his daughter was recording.

[Bobby Bones]

Went super viral.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you want a David Hasselhoff? Fun fact?

[Amy]

Did you already have that?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, you mentioned that about Germany, so I have some stuff about him in German. Okay. So he's way more famous in Germany. In the late 80s, his song Looking for Freedom hit number one in Germany and became the unofficial anthem of the fall of the Berlin Wall.

[Lunchbox]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

So we see, like, a lifeguard running down the beach or driving an 80s car. They see him as, like, a real rock hero.

[Eddie]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

That's crazy. Lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

Back in 1999, during Toy Story 2, they were almost done with the movie, and someone at Pixar ran The wrong command. Deleted 90 of the movie.

[Eddie]

Fired.

[Amy]

Can't you undo that?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, luckily they had backups, but the backups failed. And they're like, what are we gonna do? Well, there was a woman on maternity leave that had a copy at her house, and that's how the movie Toy Story 2 was saved.

[Bobby Bones]

She had it on her personal computer at home, and she was on maternity leave.

[Eddie]

That's amazing.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a good one, Eddie.

[Eddie]

Okay, so speaking of animals, Animal crackers. There are 19 different animal shapes in the animal cracker zoo, which is crazy, because I feel like every time I eat them, I just have elephants and like the same ones, but there are giraffes, there's a camel. I've never seen any of these. A bear.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think I've seen an animal cracker in a long time, though.

[Eddie]

Oh, we have like.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, they're so good.

[Bobby Bones]

I like them. Not too sweet.

[Eddie]

They're perfect.

[Bobby Bones]

And so they're how many?

[Eddie]

It said 19 total.

[Bobby Bones]

Huh. You know, the original animal crackers were meant to be eaten while standing them up.

[Eddie]

What do you mean?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, the original animal crackers were meant to be eaten while standing them up, not just snacked on. When Nabisco introduced Barnum's animals in 1902, the box even looked like a circus drain. Remember that?

[Eddie]

Yeah, I do remember that.

[Bobby Bones]

And that the kids were encouraged to play with the animals before eating them. So they were toys first. Like use them as toys and then eat like, I got you.

[Eddie]

So play with them first, then eat them. But that sounds just gross.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, like play a whole day and then have them after. All right, Morgan.

[Amy]

Bald eagles take five years to grow in that iconic look. So they aren't born with a bright white head or yellow beaks. They're actually, when they're juvenile, they're dark and really intense. And then they kind of. They're called immatures and they look really patchy. And then finally, after they hit that five year mark is when they get the crisp white head and yellow beak, yellow eyes, that whole look, you know the sound.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, make a sound of a bald eagle, Amy, go. Yeah, not real. Hollywood puts those in. Eagles actually make lighter, weaker, seagully type sounds. But the thing we hear that's, that's all Hollywood movies.

[Eddie]

And you hear it bounce off the mountains.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah. Cuz they're a sea eagle. I didn't know that. I thought they were just like a regular bird.

[Bobby Bones]

Huh?

[Amy]

The sea eagle is a. Is known as the sea eagle.

[Bobby Bones]

A seagull sea eagle.

[Amy]

No, sea eagle.

[Eddie]

Not a seagull.

[Bobby Bones]

Seagull. Fun fact Friday, there's an episode of My Strange Addiction about this woman that would eat her toenails all the time.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, she eats her toenails.

[Bobby Bones]

So he's upset because he eats his toenails. Let me play you this clip from that TV show, My Strange Addiction.

[Janet]

My name is Janet. I live in Hedgersville, West Virginia, and I'm addicted to eating toenails. I eat my nails every day. When I see, you know, any nails growing in, I just go straight for it and just start biting on them, chewing them. This toenail is so salty right now. It tastes so good. I have been eating toenails for about 26 years now. I started eating toenails when I was about 8 or 9 years old. When I do bite my toenails, I bite them till there's no more nails to bite enough to eat them.

[Bobby Bones]

Listen, I bite off my fingernails sometimes, so I'm not acting like I'm better than this, but I don't look forward to it because I just can't get enough. I bite them because I'm watching an Arkansas basketball game, and I'm like, oh, boy, hope we don't lose. But Lunchbox is upset because he's been talking on this show that he eats his toenails. But also you make a whole ceremony of it.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I'll be sitting there watching tv, and I will sit there and pick them off. I don't use clippers. I use my fingers and I rip them, and then I line them up across my thigh, and I just go down and I just kind of eat them in my mouth. Sometimes I just put them in between my teeth. You know what I mean? Like, play around with them in the mouth for a little bit, and then I start chewing.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy, what are you doing?

[Amy]

I just feel. I'm like, I've got. I know I've heard this for years, but something is just extra gross about it right now, and I want to bother.

[Lunchbox]

No, but I saw this, and I'm like, another shot at being on tv. And it doesn't come to me, like.

[Amy]

How did you submit yourself? Because she probably did.

[Lunchbox]

I understand. I didn't know they were looking for someone that eats their toenails. And maybe she has a leg up on me because I watched the clip and she was at the gym and she could go sit on the bench, and she was able to take her foot to her mouth and just bite it off. I couldn't do that.

[Bobby Bones]

She probably stretches, though, to be able to do that.

[Eddie]

She worked.

[Amy]

I mean, if she's been doing it consistently since she was 8, then yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you look forward to eating your toenails?

[Lunchbox]

I mean, it's a good snack. Like, if I'm just watching tv, it's not a snack. Well, what is it then?

[Amy]

It's a gross, disgusting.

[Lunchbox]

So why is it not considered a snack? You eat things and it's a snack.

[Bobby Bones]

Eating it to, like, be.

[Amy]

There's no sustenance food.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, you don't think that's protein?

[Amy]

I don't.

[Eddie]

I mean, calcium.

[Amy]

It's hair. Whatever. Our hair creatine. Whatever. What's our hair made of? Because that's what our nails are made of.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, if it's creatine.

[Amy]

Not creatine. Keratin. Maybe a little bit.

[Eddie]

You actually eat it? Lunchbox. Like you ingest it?

[Lunchbox]

Yes, Eddie, I chew it and then I swallow it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Toenails are primarily composed of keratin. They also contain trace amounts of minerals like calcium, iron, zinc. Look, I was taking a vitamin D. Doing daily vitamins, but yes, another chance out the window.

[Lunchbox]

So congrats to her, but I was so upset.

[Amy]

Oh, okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Congrats to her. Yeah. Anyway, I just want to. I want him to share that with you guys. I felt like it's a good morning for you guys to hear that. What?

[Amy]

I just want to say that it is not advised to eat toenails, because even though, yes, they are made of keratin, or however you say it, they're not. It's not really. It's indigestible. Keratin, they say, and can carry harmful bacteria, fungi, and dirt from your shoes. Then it's directly on your mouth, which could cause an infection, which could explain how he gets these diseases in his throat.

[Bobby Bones]

You had a yeast infection in your mouth?

[Amy]

Maybe they call it a destructive habit.

[Eddie]

And maybe it's infected your gut, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

And now your gut hurts. What if all of his problems are because he eats his toenails?

[Amy]

Oral thrush. That just sounds bad.

[Eddie]

He said he had that.

[Bobby Bones]

That was his. That was his nickname in college. That's what the.

[Lunchbox]

The infection in my throat was.

[Bobby Bones]

Oral thrush. Yeah.

[Eddie]

We didn't eat.

[Bobby Bones]

You got it from eating your toenail. We've diagnosed it. Amy, good job.

[Amy]

Yeah, no problem.

[Bobby Bones]

Two things happened here. One, we were all sicked out. And two, we diagnosed Lunchbox's illness. It's time for the good news with Amy. Tell me.

[Amy]

Shout out to America's vet dogs, because they just gave us army veteran Mark Patton a service dog, and he was deployed to Iraq, Kuwait. He suffered multiple traumatic brain injuries, loss of mobility. He has ptsd, depression, anxiety, and he waited nearly a year to get matched with his service dog, Shane, and it's going to completely change his life.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. And the reason that that's such a big story is they cost so much. They're like 20 grand a dog.

[Amy]

This particular dog, they say they spend more $50,000 to breed, raise, and train each dog to work with these type of vets. So, yeah, I'm.

[Bobby Bones]

You totally minimize my story. No, we had bought, like, three or four from military folks from this show. And so. And then I'd also done some work with Purina and we had got vets dogs. And so hey, maybe inflation. Oh yeah, Maybe it was 20 grand five years ago and now it's.

[Amy]

No, I think we did. We got the dogs. No, we did get the dog.

[Bobby Bones]

Thanks Obama.

[Amy]

Maybe like it was over five years ago. So yeah, maybe a little inflation, maybe depending on. Because he has the list of things they have going on that the dog can tend to.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. No, I, it's crazy the amount of money these dogs are and I'm sure dogs that have to be trained for different needs even more. But that's a great story. Big shout out to that organization because they really need these dogs and they deserve to have these dogs. And that's a great one. That's what it's all about. That was.

[Eddie]

Tell me something good, Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

Wake up.

[Eddie]

You wake up in the morning and.

[Bobby Bones]

You turn the radio on and the dial just keeps on turning. His wigs. Next bit and Bobby's on the mic. So you know what this is? Morning corny. Let's go.

[Lunchbox]

The morning corny.

[Amy]

What kind of dough does a gamer use?

[Bobby Bones]

Kind of dough. D o u g h. Okay. Does a gamer use.

[Amy]

Yeah, nintendo.

[Bobby Bones]

That was the Morning Corny. Bobby Bone Show Bonehead Glory of the day.

[Lunchbox]

This story comes to us from Indianapolis, Indiana. A 49 year old man was staying with his brother and it's cold outside and the gas lines are kind of frozen. He's like, don't worry guys, I got a blowtorch. I'll get in there and I'll thaw.

[Bobby Bones]

Him out the gas lines with fire. Make sure I'm hearing this right. Yeah, got it.

[Lunchbox]

So he crawled down in the crawl space, got the blowtorch and you know what happened next?

[Bobby Bones]

I would suspect nothing good.

[Lunchbox]

No. The house caught on fire.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Yeah, that's something bad. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

And so the brother, the dog and him, they all got out but the house.

[Bobby Bones]

But nobody died.

[Public Sponsor]

No one died.

[Bobby Bones]

And this isn't one of those where you're changing it because we can't have deaths in the bonehead. But sometimes you'll lie.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, there's no lie.

[Eddie]

Just so he can do it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So if people die, he'll just be.

[iHeartRadio Announcer]

Like, and everybody lived.

[Bobby Bones]

But I look back at the story and somebody died.

[Lunchbox]

Or I'll just say, ah, you know, condition unknown.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, but they all escaped.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

But the house suffered a lot of damage.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I, I got Eddie a blowtorch.

[Eddie]

For Christmas, but I know better than that.

[Lunchbox]

Did you use it on your faucet?

[Eddie]

No, I use it on the driveway.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Worked, huh?

[Eddie]

I kind of sort of. Oh, like he fired the driveway, melted the ice. It's pretty cool.

[Amy]

Freak me out, I know.

[Eddie]

Better not to do that in a gas line. I'm not a bonehead.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go. You're not all right.

[Lunchbox]

I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead. Story of the DAY.

[Bobby Bones]

So if we go back to Christmas, this guy got a scratch off and he hit for a hundred thousand bucks. The story just came out. So they do scratch off tickets as gifts. And he got his. And he just got his 100,000 bucks. That's crazy.

[Eddie]

Nice.

[Bobby Bones]

That's crazy. Just scratching one would be so fun. I invested so much money. Except it's not an investment. It's an. You have to be. That's crazy to me that you scratch off. I just wouldn't believe it even if I were in, like, Arkansas. Let me say this. If we're in Fayetteville and I get a scratch off and I hit 100,000 bucks, I'm looking around the room to see where all you suckers are to see if somehow you gave me a fake one.

[Eddie]

Who did this?

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. So there's that one. And the second one is this guy goes in for a gallbladder surgery and left with a vasectomy.

[Lunchbox]

Oh. Oh, that's the worst.

[Bobby Bones]

George thought he was going under the knife for gallbladder surgery, but later learned he'd been treated for a complementary vasectomy instead.

[Amy]

Oh, complimentary, Complimentary.

[Eddie]

It's like breakfast.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh. Oh, yeah. It's like Super 8. They got the complimentary.

[Amy]

Wait, so did his gallbladder get removed, too?

[Bobby Bones]

The original surgery was postponed today due to circumstances outside of his control. The small detail ended up causing confusion that made its way to the surgical orders, and now it's malpractice, and so it's a scandal. So, yeah, because he was delayed a day, stuff got mixed up.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

He was able to get the correct surgery while doctors pointed fingers as to who was to blame for the error of the vasectomy from oddity central.

[Eddie]

And you can reverse the vasectomy? I guess, if you really want to do that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

But then, I mean, it's not 100, though.

[Eddie]

It's not.

[Bobby Bones]

And then it's like, now you've had two surgeries on your junk. Remember when Scuba, like, blew his out?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah, because he went home and.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, did it right away with his.

[Eddie]

Wife, even though they told him not to.

[Bobby Bones]

I had a vasectomy. I need action. Caveman.

[Lunchbox]

Well, it was a euphoric. Moment. My wife would want me to do this.

[Bobby Bones]

And we just looked each other in.

[Eddie]

The eyes and there we were.

[Bobby Bones]

You're a caveman.

[Eddie]

Euphoric.

[Bobby Bones]

And then you hurt yourself, right?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I was hurt for, like, almost two weeks.

[Bobby Bones]

Because you weren't supposed to do it right afterwards. Just to wait. Of course.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Let it heal. But I did. Not worth it.

[Bobby Bones]

It's like having surgery on your elbow and get an arm wrestling match as soon as you get home.

[Lunchbox]

Is it worth it?

[Bobby Bones]

Can't do that crap. Would you. Would you change now in retrospect? No. Because, I mean, knowing how it's going to feel afterwards, I think the feeling.

[Lunchbox]

Of the first one supersedes the second one.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know.

[Eddie]

I don't know what he's.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

What do you mean?

[Lunchbox]

I can't say too much because, I.

[Bobby Bones]

Mean, it's a little graphic. It was worth it, though.

[Lunchbox]

It was worth it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. For a week of pain.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Because she. Because she was.

[Bobby Bones]

That's enough. I don't even want to hear anything.

[Lunchbox]

She looked into his eyes, man.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't want to hear his eyes. I'm trying to be PG with it.

[Eddie]

I'm still understanding.

[Bobby Bones]

No, dude, it's good. I think it's one of those better not to understand. I can tell you later. So some people came to your house and they were gonna fix your trees in your yard or what?

[Amy]

They were knocking on all the doors in my neighborhood for tree cleanup and pickup. And they were from Florida.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

And they said they came up straight away to help out. And I was like, oh, well, that's really awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, for work.

[Female Guest]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, we used to. When I roof houses, we would go to states that had tornadoes or bad, like, hail storms because there were so many people that needed it. Everybody locally could not get to everybody that needed it. So you knew there was plenty of work. So, yeah, we would do that.

[Amy]

Okay. If there's plenty of work. I instantly thought of, like, oh. I mean, I ended up hiring a local company, like a guy that does stuff in my house. Anyway, they were able to still do the tree stuff, which not a lot of yard companies can. They're not equipped. But I was like, oh, dang. Are y' all taking jobs from the people here? But there's so much that it's hard to keep up. So it was. Yeah, I guess they just go where the work is.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. If you want it to be done in a timely fashion, whenever it's a complete disaster, like it is here, everybody local is not going to Be able to do it timely. Mm. Because I'm sure, like, the guys that were doing our trees, they probably get asked about 25 people, but we work with them a lot, so they probably put us on the front of the list. But if you're person 8, 9 through 25, you want it done now.

[Amy]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

And also, they're working. I mean, it's people. They're not scamming you or like.

[Eddie]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I don't mean. I don't think they are.

[Lunchbox]

That's what I thought. When they knocked on my door two days after it, I was like, scammer?

[Bobby Bones]

No, not. They could be. But that's not generally the case. It's people coming in town because they know there was damage, and that's the. That's what they do at home. And there may not be a lot of work right now. Right. Because we would do that all the time. If there'd be storms, like, we'd go into Tennessee or Missouri especially, and. Or north Texas and go, hey. We'd see where the damage was and. Or if even on a more local level, we drive to different lakes if there was storms like seawall, find seawall damage. Because what we do, we drive up in a boat, flat bottom, see destroyed sea walls, and go up and knock on the doors like, hey, do you know you got a seawall issue? We know put a bid in that kind of thing.

[Amy]

But I got bids. So I got a couple of bids because I really had no idea and ended up going with the guy that I work with. I trust him.

[Female Guest]

A.

[Amy]

But then B, he. He was.

[Bobby Bones]

Half.

[Amy]

My other bid was double, and I was like, well, I guess I. I don't know how to even know because I've never had anything like this happen in my yard.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it's a mess.

[Amy]

So it just, like, I was surprised how drastic the quote was.

[Bobby Bones]

Was he, like, gonna give you a massage or something after?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Amy]

I mean, I feel like he just couldn't be.

[Bobby Bones]

He has a lot of work, and so he's. If what the work he's gonna take. If he's in such demand, maybe it's just gonna cost more to get him.

[Amy]

Yeah. I just was like, oh, it's quite the difference.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie says his son wants to be just like him now.

[Eddie]

Dude, it's crazy. He told my wife, he said, I want to be just like dad, strong and fit. I was like. He said, what? He's like, yeah. He said, I want to be just like dad, strong and fit. So that's awesome to me. That My son sees me in that way. Good, strong and fit. Cuz I'm definitely not strong and fit.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, you're saying that because those two laughed hard when you said that. They left a little too.

[Female Guest]

I'm laughing.

[Amy]

It's like, my kids will come and sometimes like, rub my arm. Whatever. They're like, mom, your arms are so soft. Like, but they mean and squishy. They say the word soft and squishy and I'm like, go away.

[Eddie]

That's rude.

[Amy]

I know, but they're not meaning it as rude. They kind of feel. But I'm like, ugh, I need to go lift heavy or something. But your kids see you as not soft and squishy.

[Eddie]

And then every day I kind of say, like, man, I really want to go to the gym today. I never really go, but I say it. So maybe in their mind, like, oh, maybe when we were at school, dad went to the gym, you know, so in their mind, I'm very strong.

[Amy]

Bobby, go rub his. Go see if he feels soft and squishy.

[Bobby Bones]

He doesn't.

[Eddie]

I'm not soft and squishy. Well, my stomach's a little soft and squishy. You want to feel my arm?

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, you can bring it over here. I felt your arm before.

[Amy]

Feel it. No, don't flex. It has to just be casual.

[Lunchbox]

He's just watching TV right now. That's how I watch TV with his.

[Bobby Bones]

It's been bigger, but it's okay. Oh, well, we used to work out really consistent. Heck, I haven't worked out in three months because of my ankle surgery. Yeah, so it used to be harder.

[Eddie]

I think the fast got me a little bit. You know, I. I mean, I didn't eat for 20 days.

[Amy]

Ate some of your muscle.

[Bobby Bones]

You want to feel me without working out for three months?

[Eddie]

Absolutely.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

What in the world?

[Eddie]

Dang, that's still hard.

[Lunchbox]

Is it?

[Eddie]

That's still hard.

[Amy]

Has it been bigger?

[Eddie]

Going to fast.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think The Fast in 20 Days did that to you.

[Amy]

Oh, no muscle.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you not losing deterioration can setting so pretty quickly.

[Eddie]

Protein intake wasn't there.

[Bobby Bones]

Dude, he was eating beans.

[Eddie]

Stop.

[Bobby Bones]

You didn't go on a fast for three weeks and lose all your muscle. You're not Gandhi. Okay, all right.

[Amy]

Okay. So cool.

[Eddie]

Eddie, I thought that was cool.

[Bobby Bones]

That should make you feel good.

[Amy]

Like literally Amy.

[Eddie]

They said Amy's strong and fit.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Amy]

Yeah, I guess they did.

[Bobby Bones]

Ray, one of your friends was talking about me. Yeah, she was just asking. She goes, not necessarily how you've become successful. She Just said, what does he do that makes him so successful? What did you answer?

[Lunchbox]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

The easiest way for me to answer was. I just said, he compartmentalizes. He wouldn't. While he's at the Bobby Bones show, he's not going to be worrying about stuff at home. Oh, my. I need to work on my pickleball court. He would never do that while he's at work. So whatever he's faced with, he's working on in that moment. How did this come up in conversation? She was just wondering. She's like, you're next to him every day. How is he literally that successful? What does he do? And I said, he compartmentalizes.

[Amy]

Okay, you do compartmentalize. But working next to you every day, I have a different thing, but I don't. I wanted to.

[Bobby Bones]

Is it soft and squishy safe space?

[Amy]

I. I wanted to, like, it's.

[Bobby Bones]

There's no such thing as a safe space in this room. You know that.

[Eddie]

So I don't want to.

[Amy]

I think that this make. I think we do fake safe space.

[Bobby Bones]

We promise you're safe, and then we attack.

[Amy]

I think even you might agree. But something I've noticed over the years, because, I mean, 20 years of different. Watching you take on different things. So starting off with you, just watching you do radio, but then even in Austin, you became a rapper.

[Bobby Bones]

I was kept.

[Amy]

That was one of the first times I saw this. It was like, it didn't matter. You just. You were a rapper. You didn't like, second guess it. You just went and did it, and you made it like, no, no. Nothing anybody said was gonna stop you. It was like part of your. This has always been your part identity. This is what you do. We come to Nashville. Now you're in country music. You just do it. You start a band. I have a band. Of course I have a band. I'm a musician. I have a band. I make music. I write music. I'm a writer. I'm a comedian. And now I go do comedy shows. But it's like all the evolution of all the things when I've watched you pursue them, you pursue them as if that's what you've always been. And it doesn't matter. Like, because my brain second guesses stuff that I want to go do. I'm like, oh, I'm an idiot. Like, I'm not. Why would I go do that? That's not who I am. You know, your brain doesn't do that. At least I don't think my. What I've taken in watching you over the years is there's no way your brain does that. Your brain does not have that option. It just, like, it's straight ahead. Like, you know, duh, I'm a comedian. Duh, I go on a comedy tour. It's obviously what I do. And then you go and you sell out, and you do, and you keep doing it, and then you go to the next thing, like, oh, of course. I'm a mentor on American Idol. You know, like, it's just.

[Female Guest]

Am I close?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. No. I think. Sure. That's your perspective and your opinion. So you're not wrong. I think there are two things that successful people, the ones that I know that they have in common. Number one is the ability to keep going. That's the hardest because it's all. That didn't work out at first. And sometimes it's always that didn't work out. And number two is an irrational confidence in yourself.

[Amy]

I think that's where I'm at.

[Bobby Bones]

And I have a wildly irrational confidence in myself that I can do anything I want.

[Amy]

Like, I'm gonna write a New York Times bestseller. I'm gonna write an author.

[Bobby Bones]

There's no reason I should have started writing a book. But I was like, who? If other people can do this, why can't I do it? Like, I have an irrational confidence in every single thing that I do. But if I didn't, I wouldn't be able to do things that are irrationally that. That are abnormal.

[Amy]

Yeah. I could have summed it up in irrational confidence. I didn't know exactly what it was called, but that's just what I've witnessed over the years. I'm like, he just goes for it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. And I think.

[Amy]

And not that there haven't been failures, but it doesn't matter. Like, you just are.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, I'm irrationally confident that I can do anything. I think if I ran for president, I would be president.

[Amy]

But then you also have this side of you that's like, ugh. But nobody's gonna read it.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, for sure. That is a big imposter syndrome that always lives within myself. Always.

[Amy]

But the irrational confidence trumps it for sure.

[Lunchbox]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

I believe I can do anything in the whole world. If I had to quit this job today and I had to go be an investment banker, I'd be number one. I could be a head coach of a college football team. And two years, I have no doubt.

[Amy]

Yeah. It's almost like it feels delusional.

[Bobby Bones]

For sure, it is delusional.

[Amy]

And then until it's not, and then you do it, and you're like, okay, because I'm delusional.

[Eddie]

You always shocked when you do it, like, when it happens.

[Lunchbox]

No, because you expect it.

[Bobby Bones]

There are. There are times where I'm like, huh, look what I did.

[Eddie]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, after I'm done, like, after I get away from it, yeah. I'll look back and, like, writing books. I don't know how to write books. I didn't know how to write books. And I was just like, I'm gonna write a book. And so I wrote a book, and it did really well. And I wrote a second book. I did really well. And now that I'm far away and I'm not writing books, I'm like, dude, why did I think I could just write books and just fly to New York and, like, go into these places and be like, can I try to convince you guys to buy my book? And a lot of people said no. Everybody said no at first.

[Amy]

Well, and that's the thing with the irrational delusion or the. Or the irrational confidence and some of the delusion, you still are extremely proactive. It's not.

[Bobby Bones]

You're.

[Amy]

You're not just like, oh, this is just gonna happen, and you will it. Like it. You chase it. You go for it. But you.

[Bobby Bones]

I also do the work. I put the work in to get it done.

[Amy]

And you act as if it's happening, which is a method.

[Bobby Bones]

I believe the world is bendable. I believe you can do anything you want. If there aren't physical limitations on it. I believe you can do it. I don't think I can just dunk tomorrow or ever, unless. But there is a way for me to dunk, and this is how I look at life. I can't dunk. I'll never be able to dunk in the way that most people would consider dunking. I can get a trampoline and dunk. I can't dance. I'm never gonna be as good a dancer as some of those people. But can I go and win a dance show?

[Eddie]

Sure.

[Bobby Bones]

I'll do it in an unconventional way.

[Amy]

Yeah. Delusional.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I told Shauna second week of that show, we're gonna win this thing, and I have no idea how, because I suck, but we will win this show. She was like, you're out of your freaking mind. And so, yeah, the two things is you don't stop and irrational confidence. If you have those together, I think you can do whatever you want. But I do have wildly irrational confidence. But I've also done so many things That I probably shouldn't have been able to do that. Now I really believe I can do anything. So that would be. Or compartmentalize, as Ray would say, which.

[Eddie]

Is different in a way.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, if you don't believe you can do big things, nobody else will either. And if you haven't done big things, why would you believe you can do big things? Because you have no record to show you can do big things. So you have to be irrational about stuff, even delusional. But, yeah, that's what I'd say. That's good. I agree with you on all that. You said irrational delusion. That was like two words.

[Public Sponsor]

That was a little hard.

[Amy]

I meant irrational confidence. I combined the two. I meant irrational confidence. But, yeah, I'm glad you received what I was saying. And you agree.

[Bobby Bones]

It's funny you bring up the rapping. I was voted, what, second best rapper in Austin, Texas.

[Amy]

Well, that was the first time I saw it in action because I was.

[Eddie]

Like, how's Bobby gonna become a rapper?

[Female Guest]

Yeah.

[Amy]

I was like, what the. And then he has a name and he's like, outperforming shows and he's winning awards. And I'm like. But that's where I saw. He's like, oh, this guy just, you know, this early on in our relationship where I was like, okay, I think I'm seeing how he is. And then what. But I didn't fully understand until I got here. And then also when I was doing work myself. Because you can adopt that thinking for yourself. Like, if you're someone. It doesn't come naturally to me, but I, in certain things, have adopted it. Like, I just have to act as if this is who I am until I become it. Whereas Bobby was, at whatever age. I'm not sure it was wired into him or he.

[Bobby Bones]

I think I had to have that to get out of where I was. Like, I never saw anybody graduate high school or college. Yeah. So why would I think I could do that?

[Amy]

Very well. Could have been at that moment, whatever age that happened to you early in childhood. Whereas mine. I wasn't exposed to that thinking till an adult. And it's not naturally wired in me, but Bobby's just.

[Bobby Bones]

Mine was shoved in me.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Wired and ready to go.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, I got it forced upon me. Do you have any answer to that? What would you have said before?

[Eddie]

I mean, I was gonna say psycho in the. In the way of how you. Like, work is just. I mean, you're just gonna work, man. You're gonna work, work, work until it's done. And what's really impressive, too, is that, like, how you learn about something. If you're going to do something, you kind of learn how it all works. I don't know how you do it, if you read books or what. Or ask people, but you always have this knowledge of, like, all right, I'm going to go into this world, I need to know how it works. And you figure that out. Or I would be like, oof, I don't know how that is. Like, I don't know how that works. I guess I'll ask someone. But you figure it out. And. And to me, the work ethic is really what I've just seen. Like, in a psycho way. You just work.

[Bobby Bones]

Why do you psycho so much? That's twice. Because I would.

[Lunchbox]

And he emphasized psycho.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah. Because it is kind of, I would say, dedicated. It's unhealthy at times.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, for sure.

[Eddie]

You know, the way you work so much and how you prioritize work over other things, but that's how you got a lot of your stuff. Work, work, work.

[Amy]

Compartmentalize it.

[Bobby Bones]

That one feels a little meaner than Amy's.

[Amy]

And what'd you say?

[Female Guest]

What?

[Amy]

You go, eddie, what? You didn't finish your sentence, Eddie, what do you think? Before Amy. No, I finished it. I finished it in my head before Amy hijacked the whole thing.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, no, I was gonna say before Amy. Accurately nailed it. Described what I. Isn't that funny how your mind did that?

[Amy]

Yes, yes. I'm well aware of what my mind does, so I have to always. This is another thing that I got from Brene Brown. Let's assume the best. That was me not assuming the best, but in general, just assume the best.

[Eddie]

But, Bobby, you don't assume the best.

[Bobby Bones]

Nope.

[Amy]

No, I meant in what other people are like. I automatically.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm much more positive this year, though, in case you forgot my word of the year. Well, it's. Oh, yeah, I'm still. But I'm still remembering it. Like, I'm just more positive about it.

[Amy]

So you're. You're digging in.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I am not always more positive, but I challenge the negativity a lot of times. It doesn't always manifest itself in complete positivity, but I do. When it does happen, I do go, man, do I really want to be negative about this? Because it's gonna be the same result regardless. I'll be positive. Sometimes I'm like, I do want to be negative. I've just seen it happen too many times. But sometimes I'm like, you know, What? This could work out.

[Amy]

That's good.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Love that.

[Bobby Bones]

Look at us all growing.

[Amy]

Because just like the world is bendable, your brain is moldable.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, is that Bennet Brown again?

[Bobby Bones]

Mine's pretty much in.

[Amy]

No, that's just kind of dug in there. Neuroscience.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, Ray. Yeah, good stuff. I'll have her listen to this. Thanks, buddy. There it is.

[Eddie]

The answer.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie.

[Eddie]

What's up, guys? I keep getting DMs, like, I'm talking about, like, 20 DMs of people telling me about their kidney stories that they want. Either they need a kidney or they know someone that needs a kidney. And if I'm willing to help. Dude, I don't know what to do.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, do you ever respond to them?

[Eddie]

No, but I'm thinking maybe. Maybe I'm the guy that repost those DMS and be like, is there anyone out there can help?

[Amy]

Maybe.

[Bobby Bones]

So this was all rooted in Eddie saying it'd be awesome to donate a kidney a long time ago.

[Eddie]

A long time ago.

[Bobby Bones]

But then he's like, I want to do it. I want to do it, I want to do it. They were like, great, get tested. Go do it. And he's like, nah, I don't really want to. So then it became a bit where Eddie would always say he wanted to do it, but never do it. Callers were calling in, but now you're that guy. God may have put this on you.

[Eddie]

Okay, great. I love it. But what do I do? Like, I don't have 20 kidneys. So even if I did want to donate a kidney, like, I got 20 DMS in my inbox.

[Amy]

Well, so, yeah, reposting them or putting them out there, that can't hurt. You're contributing to the efforts of finding a match.

[Bobby Bones]

You have one.

[Eddie]

One kidney.

[Amy]

He's not going to do that. Let's just take Eddie off the table.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, he's off the table.

[Eddie]

Currently. Not right now.

[Bobby Bones]

Stop saying currently, because that makes us come back to it.

[Eddie]

Right now is just not the time.

[Amy]

This is the year of him being serious.

[Eddie]

Yes, I'm being serious.

[Amy]

He's not going to do it. Then he. You need to be. You've now put yourself in this category of, like, you know, a catalyst, like the voice of helping people find kidneys.

[Bobby Bones]

So, okay, it could be that.

[Eddie]

Is it a HIPAA violation, though, to be spreading somebody else's?

[Bobby Bones]

Not if they sent it to you.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

If they can find a kidney, like, I think they're good.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you imagine how popular you would become, like, if you started to be the kidney Guy. And you were matching people.

[Eddie]

I love it.

[Amy]

I know.

[Eddie]

I mean. I mean, there's, like, I'm not a hero. Like, it's not about me.

[Bobby Bones]

You've done nothing. You can't even convince us you're not a hero because you're not. Right.

[Eddie]

But it's not about me. Even if I do the kidney guy thing, right? Where I just repost all these kidney things.

[Amy]

You're like a matchmaker.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but it's not me, you know, I'm just. I'm just the hero. I'm not a hero. It wouldn't be me.

[Bobby Bones]

We do have this voicemail, too, because Eddie said he was thinking about donating part of his liver. Here you go. Play number two.

[Amy]

Eddie donating a liver. I actually donated my liver about seven months ago. They took 70% of it, and it's already fully regrown. Recovery was about eight weeks. So it was a little rough at first, but now I'm completely back to normal. So I just wanted to give my two cents about that. Hope everybody has a great day.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you.

[Amy]

That's legit.

[Bobby Bones]

That you could do. You could just be the organ donating guy. Do some of your liver.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And then be liver and kidney guy.

[Eddie]

70% and it's already grown back.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

That's amazing.

[Amy]

Sane.

[Eddie]

But also, how do you just live on 30%?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, don't ask me that. I don't know the answer.

[Amy]

But you're not like.

[Bobby Bones]

It's.

[Amy]

It's growing that fast. You're. It's turning over.

[Eddie]

Whoa.

[Bobby Bones]

Is that something? You'll know.

[Eddie]

Stop. I'm just. I'm going to. This is my year. Being serious.

[Bobby Bones]

Possibly.

[Lunchbox]

Seriously.

[Eddie]

I think that's really cool. And I mean, I would definitely think about it.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, my God. You're thinking about.

[Amy]

I mean, the liver seems doable.

[Eddie]

It's totally doable. The kidney, you got two, and you give one away, you're left with one.

[Female Guest]

Except for.

[Amy]

I wonder if there are rare circumstances in which, like, your liver's supposed to grow back and then it just, like, doesn't.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, don't say that to him.

[Eddie]

Forget it. I'm out then.

[Bobby Bones]

The liver is the only visceral organ that regenerates.

[Eddie]

It's the only one.

[Amy]

Unless there's a malfunction.

[Bobby Bones]

That's probably with anything. Okay. I think you should actually consider.

[Eddie]

Do you.

[Bobby Bones]

That you could change lives by doing this. All this may have happened for this reason.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Well, so that he now can be.

[Bobby Bones]

Share of information.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Matcher. And he needs to donate something, though. So he's not a hypocrite. Like you don't see, you know, the greatest color football, color analysts. Most of them have played. Eddie needs to play. He needs to get in the game.

[Eddie]

I need to at least play in the game a little bit. Yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Think about that.

[Eddie]

All right?

[Amy]

I mean, but I wonder. Your liver has to be in top tip top.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think it does. I think it's me in pretty good shape, dude.

[Eddie]

My college years.

[Bobby Bones]

He drinks.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, here we go.

[Female Guest]

This is Radhi Deblookia from a really good cry. I absolutely love getting outside. Whether it's a quick walk or a mindful few steps between meetings or even a longer run to just clear my head. But the one thing that can really ruin that for me is shoes that just don't feel right. That's why I started wearing Altra running with the Altra fit. Every step feels comfortable, balanced and strong. Like my feet can finally move freely. What really stood out to me was the roomy toe box. My toes actually now have room to spread out, which makes movement feel more natural and comfortable. And when your feet aren't cramped, you feel more balanced.
