Welcome to Friday Show. Morning, Studio. Morning Christmas. Man, it's almost here. This is it. Crazy. Thanksgiving being a little late this year has thrown everything off. Yeah. And then like, Christmas is Wednesday of next week. So Tuesday's Christmas Eve. That doesn't count. So it's like next week. Crazy. I mean, this is it. Cuz nobody's going to do anything Monday. Oh, man. But yeah, that's it. And then away we go. And then it's New Year's and then it's next Christmas. No, no, no. I don't want to rush it now. We got to start getting. No, yeah. Then next Christmas is here. Yeah, Bones. Let's enjoy it a little. Point. Good point. Lunchbox went around his neighborhood Christmas caroling. So is this wholesome or funny or cringy? What are we doing? Oh, no, this is wholesome, man. I used to do this as a kid. My parents would get together with friends and we'd go caroling around the neighborhood. And I realized no one carols anymore. No one goes up and knocks on doors and Christmas carols. So I told my wife this, and she was like, well, do you want to do it? And I was like, yeah. So I made her text other families in the neighborhood, and we went Christmas caroling. Oh, so they knew you were coming? No, no, like just to come to our house. And we had a big group go knock on doors. Okay. Even that's better than two. It's not just you and your family, which, by the way, beautiful family just would have been a little weirder. Okay. Okay. Yeah. There's like, probably 14 little kids and like, oh, that's kind of awesome. Then eight or nine adults. It was amazing. And you had your clothes on. Like I had a Christmas sweater on. Okay, I'm into it then. So the question, though is, why don't people do it anymore? I think because people just don't go to people's houses anymore. Like the old random drop by. That's dead. Somebody knocks on my door, I'm like, why? Just generally. Yeah. Who? Okay. But I'm into this. Here is lunchbox, we'll call it. How many people are in the group? Probably 25. Wow. The lunchbox. We'll call it the Lunchbox. Quarter century. It's him and his band singing Jingle Bells. Here we go. Jingle Bells. Are we ready? Who's ready? All right. One, two, three. Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way oh, what fun is to ride in a one horse opens up Jingle bells Jingle bell, jingle all the way yeah, whatever that bell was like, I was feeling it till that bell got a little too close to the microphone there. So is Lunchbox the leader? I'm confused, and I say this. He did a good job. I think if people are, like, walking with him, he can stay on. If he's by himself, he tends to fall off. Sing Jingle Bells Lunchbox by yourself, please. Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way oh, what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh hey, that's not. I give him an 83. He got. He got a. A light B on that one. But see, with everybody else, he got it. Maybe Christmas girls are my thing, dude. Those little kids, some of them knew all the words and were rocking it. They really did. Here is what's up with the instrument. The instruments were kind of getting me. Ah, they had little bells, like, on their necklaces. Got it, Got it. We wish you a merry Christmas Here we go. Good times for Christmas and a happy New Year. Okay, good. Yeah. Did you quit on that one early? Yeah, I didn't know the words. No one knows the words. I know the words. I don't know why someone picked that one. They're like, I'll do this one. And they. They knew the words. And I was like, how many houses you go to? I like, 10. Wow. Everybody come to the door? No. How many came to the door? 8. Cool. Did bore the other two in the house, though, and just didn't come out, I think. So lights were on. One lady we could see in there, like she was painting. She's under the table, I guess they were moving in and so they were painting the walls. And I could see her painting. And we're. The kids are knocking like, there's someone in there. There's someone in there and nothing. She probably thinks somebody wants money or something. Because I think that's what we all think. If someone comes to the door, not your fault. Yeah. Just general, but also if. If they would have tipped you, you would you have accepted it? Absolutely. Just checking. Just checking. And we did. There was one person out for a walk. Oh, no. And we just surrounded them and started singing. You can't do that. Oh, my gosh. They're like, I'm just trying to get home. One more. Deck the halls, follow along Merry Christmas. I feel joyous. You struggled a little on that one, though. I didn't know the words again. But can you do follow. Do as much as you can but do follow law Deck the halls with bowels of Holly F. Almost only had two laws that were off. Oh, really? Yeah. That's good. No, yesterday. Not bad. You're the leader. Let's walked in his new Christmas band. Let's walk in the quarter century. It was awesome, man. Coming to a town near you. Hopefully not. That's a lot. You got to pay a lot of people if that's a band. You know, big bands. Okay, so a lot of Christmas stuff today, by the way, that's just starting us off here. I mean, maybe that right there will encourage people to go caroling. I don't know. Shot just knocking on doors. It's just. It's just not. Doesn't feel good. If you have, like, a Santa hat on and some bells, then I think Santa's going to rob me and just hide in his face. I agree. I saw Theo Vaughn going around with people from the gym or close to here. They all work out together, and they went door to door, and nobody was. Well, I don't think anybody was scared of them, but. Yeah, I hear you. I'm just saying, all adult men, no children. Should we go, Carolyn? We should not. Okay. That's what I'm saying. It's in a tradition that is dying, and it needs to come back. I think you're right. I would even feel like we're going to watch Carol's, because then what do you do? Stand there. Okay. Single clap. Go back in. I like it, though. Good job, Bones. It's the anonymous inbox. Anonymous in box. There's a question to be had. Hello, Bobby Bones. About six months ago, my roommate finally got himself a girlfriend. He seems happy. Over the weekend, I asked him what his plans were in case he was thinking about moving out and living with her. Now our lease is coming up. I need to plan ahead. He says he's gonna stick around for another year and that we'd be seeing a lot more of his girlfriend, too. To that, I suggest we add her name to the lease. Also make it cheaper for all of us. He laughed and said, she lives with her parents for free, so paying rent isn't something she'd go for. That said, she's at our place five nights a week, is eating our food, using our toilet paper, and I think either she or he should be ponying up some cash. How can I bring this up without making myself roommateless? Signed roommate versus the girlfriend. Oh, the old common somebody. Even if it's a buddy that's there all the time eating stuff, this is a pretty common thing. So, first of all, you're not Alone in this. Secondly, I can see how that would be annoying to you. Before I give you advice, I will tell you if you do not address this right now and quickly, you will be so resentful of each other, the entire living situation will be terrible for everybody involved. There will be resentment that has grown from this. You won't even feel comfortable going to the living room. So you got to fix this one way or the other. Do I think she should pay rent? No, she doesn't live there. She is there as part of that relationship. And is she there a little more than normal? Yes. But the conversation is to him. First of all, if she's eating the food and it's part of your food that sucks and that's costing you money, that's something that he needs to be aware of and needs to be a part of making sure either A, she doesn't eat your food, or B, if she's not gonna do it, he needs to pony up a little cash for the food she's eating. Like, that's not your fault. She's eating your food. Toilet paper. Okay, that's the one where I'm like. Unless she's like on the. Got diarrhea every day, all day. Like the toilet paper thing, you just gotta let go. Little girls do use more than boys. I hear you, but that. It's toilet paper. So should she be poning up money for rent? If she's there on. If you're saying five nights a week, I think probably it's probably three or four. Probably there a lot. If she's spending the night there, literally five or six nights a week, that's a conversation with your roommate to go, hey, this doesn't feel fair. But she's not going to pay it. It's up to him. If there's anything you want, you have to address it with him, not her. Because she's just at the guy's house. She doesn't owe anybody anything. Why would she sign a lease? She doesn't live there. Definitely on your roommate. Yes. So that's the. You must have the conversation and you must say how you feel. And if she's eating your food, don't eat my food anymore, or he needs to pay. Second of all, you need to really figure out how many nights she's staying, how much time she's there, how much of the place she's dominating. And then talk to the roommate. It's like, hey, it's hard. Or even have rules on how much, how often she can be there. If it's like time at night, if she's there seven nights a week, if he's not going to help out in other ways. But this is going to be a nuanced situation where you're going to have to talk about it, have an understanding of how much she's there and how much she can be there. You don't need to put rules on it. But if she's going to be taking up a lot of the time, energy, oxygen, it needs to be reflected in you and your roommate's financial relationship. Amy. Yeah, I think it's worth talking about asap. I don't think it means you're going to end up roommate list. He needs a roommate, too, probably. It sounds like. It's not like they're going to go get a place together because she can't contribute. So I think it's fair to ask him, like, how do you want to go about this? Because it's definitely not fair anymore. And it's a great way to ask it. How would you like to go about this? Hey, how do you expect me to do this? Like, she's here all the time. She's eating the food that I'm paying for. She's not paying rent. I'm not saying she's paying rent, but how do you expect me every day to feel like this is fair? Let him answer that question. Like a hostage negotiation thing where you go, hey, how do you expect me to do this? And then if it just stays bad, then you had to find new roommates. And part of the risk when there's conflict is it could end in a way that's not pleasurable to you. Right. Then it could end up being like the best thing ever. Absolutely. You have to talk about or you're going to get resentful. I don't think she needs to pay rent because she won't pay rent. But he needs to make sure you feel comfortable with the situation. Or call her parents. Do like Eddie did his wife's dad. Like, I'm not marrying her to her debts paid. Exactly. The real only advice we give you is you must talk about it soon or you will be roommate list. Because you'll be so resentful of each other. So work on it. This is a good test. It's a good life test. There's some nuance you have to give and take. Figure it out. They won't be together very long anyway. That toilet paper, though, man, you know, they could do something. Yeah, that's more. I'm like, dude, come on. Not that big a Deal. All right, there you go. Close it up. A voicemail from Matt. Hey Bones. Morning studio. I have a morning corny for Amy but somewhat for Eddie. Why did the Mexican take anti anxiety medicine for Hispanic attacks? Love y'all. Show his panic attack. Okay, so that one's okay? Yeah, I feel like that's not. Of course I always get not racist. Oh, you don't need to say it though, you know, I mean, yeah, don't say it borderline but like. Right. I can enjoy that, right? All right, give me one more. Hi Bobby, I'm a new listener.

Y'all know I love a good forest bath, and that's just simply going into the woods with the trees and walking and taking it in. Well, if you need a break from holiday stress, Tree FM is available. And you may not have a forest near you, but it's going to bring you all the sounds of a forest. So you just have to listen and pretend and visualize that you're there. Like commercial hits, right? You're like, ah, yeah. People around the world, they recorded sounds of their own forest. So these are legit forest sounds. They're not Made up. Yeah. I just had a weird name. A forest bath. I would just call, like a forest walk. It's always. It's called force bathing. That is what it is called. That's again, it's a dumb name. I would like if I'm gonna. If I want to bathe in the forest, I want a bathtub, and I want to be in the forest taking a bath. Yeah, well, no, it's like taking in the wood walk. A walk in the woods. That's what it is. Force bathing. If you just hear that, you have no idea what you think. It's a bath. I was picturing a waterfall and you're bathing in it. Yeah, but no. Well, no, you're just. Actually, you're just soaking in the forest vibes. And it really is good for you. Even the visualization part. Do not knock this. That visualization is real. Do you know that's what guys. She's getting. She's. She turned on us. I don't know if you felt that, but she just turned on us. So we're gonna take a step back and let her do her force talk. I know that y'all are sports guys, so this may resonate with you, but I'm sure you know that Michael Jordan, something he visualized all the time is making baskets in his head over and over and over and over. Yeah, but that's not the forest. If you get in the forest and I'll be like, I want to be Michael Jordan. It's like. But your brain, it can really be there. Yeah, but we're talking about visualization now, not force walking. Okay, but you're visualizing being in the forest. If you can't be in your world right now. I wish I was in a bath in the forest. Okay, you need to go to Tree FM to get the noises. Hey, we hit. We had a sore spot with her. Go ahead. Have you ever heard of hot Dr. Pepper? Oh, I saw something on this. Is it a drink? Holiday drink. It's gone. It's going viral. Eddie probably knows about it because it was really popular in the 60s and the 70s. I didn't know why she's on one, but she's on one, so well done. I saw her on tv. Lay back and take it. Okay, go ahead. It's a retro holiday drink that is making a comeback because of a viral video from Morgan Chomps. It's got millions of views. All you do is heat up Dr. Pepper in a crock pot or a regular pot on the stove. You add sliced lemons and Boil it up, drink it. And that is called Hot Dr. Pepper. And it's a little hot toddy. You can drink it as is. Or maybe doesn't say this here, but if you added a little shot of something. Oh, you have to. And if you take a drink while you're walking in the forest, you're forced. I'm just gonna lay back. Take a drink. Go ahead. And I'm just la. Do your last story. All right, so imagine you are at church enjoying a Christmas concert, and then all of a sudden you're like, what is that beautiful voice? Carrie. Carrie Underwood chosen a church and joins the Christmas concert. Really trying to play that game because I don't get to play often. That's Carrie. That'd be awesome if Carrie Underwood just gets up there and sings. Yeah, sorry, I meant to lay back and hear more. Go ahead. That's it. I'm Amy. That's my pile. All right, all right, all right. There's a thing called Mistletoe Murders three that's up your alley. I know it's Christmas, but it's also like, you got my attention. Okay, okay. It's a Canadian audible original. Only on Audible. And so, by the way, it's season three, so you can recap seasons one and two, but Colby smothers from How I Met yout Mother. She was like the main familiar with her. She was also like the Iron. Like the Avengers. Yes. She had like a human. Like, she was like a human. She wasn't even like an Avenger. Yeah, she was an agent. In the third season, Emily faces her most significant and personal obstacles yet, resulting in a captivating and binge worthy experience with uncertainty and high stakes storytelling. It's been Adapted to the Hallmark plus series and so you can go to Audible.comMistletoe3 to listen. Here is a clip of it. Go ahead. After a solid hour of work, I head to the water bottle filling station for a refill when I notice a man in a gray deer stalker with big fuzzy ear flaps surreptitiously snapping photos of various floats. It could be nothing, but I decide to keep an eye on him just in case. After about 10 minutes of collecting photos, the man heads out of the warehouse and through the parking lot. I continue to shadow him at a distance, hoping to get a glance at his license plate so I can ask Sam to run it for me. As I move between two closely parked vans, I'm surprised to find my route suddenly, suddenly blocked by a now familiar face. I quickly turn and prepare to head back the way I came, but. Oh, got you with that. Yeah. It's like a Christmas thriller. I want to hear the rest. A very distinct voice. Also, do y'all know what surreptitiously means? I had to look up surreptitiously. She said that the guy was taking pictures surreptitiously. Oh, suspiciously. Nope. Surreptitiously. Yeah. What is it? Didn't even know. It means didn't even hear the word. Oh. Well, I try to. Whenever I hear something or read something new, I'm trying to look it up secretively. I would have just said secretly. Be sure. Yeah. So he was trying to avoid attention while he was taking photos. All right. There you go. Anyway, check that out. It's an audible original. Thank you very much. That was Amy's pile of stories. It's time for the good news with Bobby. Tell me something good. The Secret Santa's been crushing it. So no one knows who it is. And he goes to areas or towns that need it. And this one town, Hurricane Helene hit. And so Secret Santa shows up and just handed out hundreds to people. Handed out hundreds. Please don't. If you know who I am, don't say it. He says, don't want anybody to know, but that's the whole deal. He finds a place like this every single year. And there are all these people that came forward and they're like, it helps so much, but it's just the Santa Claus. The guy dressed as Santa handed out $100 bills to people, and I think that's really amazing. Yes. He has the money to do it, so that's awesome. And the fact that he does it and tries to help so many people on a very personal. He doesn't have to, you know, dedicate his time to that. But I don't know who you are, but Secret Santa, I bet you listen to this show because this is in an area that we're listening to a whole lot. And I believe everybody should listen to the show. And if you don't mind, put a little tag on there. Also listen to Buy Bone Show. Yeah. Because we. We encourage it. That's awesome. Great story. WBTV Secret Santa, if you're listening. Great job. And that's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good Bones. Fun Fact Friday. The most enjoyable segment all week. Fun Fact Friday. Amy, you go first. Baby elephants suck their trunks for comfort. Let me think about this. Yep. Yeah, pretty much just like human newborns. They even make, like, funny faces and do all kinds of things and then look suck on their Trunk. I wish we could speak to elephants. They dolphins. Elephants probably most like humans. Monkeys smart. Like they mourn. If somebody dies, they mourn like they know part of the elephants. Wildly smart. There's got to be an invention sometime where we're just like, okay, talk to your animals for a minute. What was the movie? Daddy Murphy, Dr. Doolittle. Yeah. So funny. Great documentary lunchbox. Around 15,000 people visit the ER every year in the months of November and December from decorating accidents. We're talking lacerations, falls and strained backs. Have you hurt yourself at all, decorating? No, not yet. Oh, then it's to come. It's coming. I mean, not yet. I mean, I'm still a little young where I feel like I'm not at the accident age. I feel like, oh, I don't think that's an age thing. I think that's a slip and fall. If you're putting on, you could be 22 and fall and putting lights on. That's true. I do lean over the edge of the roof and hang the light. If you fall, your agent gonna help you there. Well, if you're 22 and you fall, you're in better hands than when. If you're older and you fall, you follow the house. At 22, you're breaking a shoulder. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, it's gonna be bad. But, like, Eddie, tiramisu. No, you're older. Like, did you ever fall into that one? Boys? All right, go ahead. Tiramisu. You know what that is? The dessert? Yeah. It tastes like coffee. It's terrible. They burn the top of it. It's like, crusty, so I don't like it. It's funny you say it's terrible because it translates, take me to heaven in Italian. That's what it means. It means take it off my table. I don't like the taste of coffee in Babelina. That's my native language. Here's mine. Pound cake. Amy, what do you think? Pound cake. You gotta get its name from. Easy answer, easy answer. Pound. Pound cake. It easy. Eddie probably weighed a pound. That's what I was looking for. No, pound cake seems lighter than that. So what happened was, when they started making it, the original recipe called for a pound of butter, a pound of eggs, a pound of sugar and a pound of flour. I took a pound of each of those. So it's a four pound cake. Well, back in the day, it was much heavier. Okay, I was confusing pound cake with angel cake. Angel food cake. That's very light. You're right. It's very light. But also, I don't think pound cake weighs a pound either, though, to your point, angel cake is very light, but I think even your point is right. Pound cake doesn't weigh a pound anymore because you don't put a pound. But if you have a pound of eggs and a pound of butter and a pound of sugar, shouldn't it weigh more than a pound? Yeah, four pounds. The original, though, didn't weigh a single. Okay, now we're going, no. No. Okay. But that's how I got it. Eddie's answer was because it weighs a pound, which would have been the guess. Yeah, but it actually took all those. But there is no number of what it actually weighed because it was like the quarter pounder. Now, it doesn't weigh a quarter pound, but the meat is a. It's a quarter pound. When it cooks, just everything. This is not fun fact. This is my head about to explore the fact. No, I get it now. Every everything in the recipe is a pound. So it's a pound cake. That makes sense. Boom. Yes. Thank you, Lunchbox. You already did yours. Morgan, you do yours. Not yet. I'm confused on the cakes now. I don't know who this one. Go ahead. Okay. So Santa's reindeer. Well, they've had lots of names, so Rudolph was almost named Rolo or Reginald. And his Gru also had other names. Rolo's awesome. That should have been named Rolo. Rolo, that's better. Rudolph. Reginald sucked. Rolo is awesome. But could you do the song? Rolo, the red nose. Yeah. Syllables. Why would you not know that? I just had to sing it out so I can get it. Go ahead. So the crew also had some other names. They've been called Flossy, Glossy Racer, Pacer, Scratcher, Feckless, Ready, Steady, and Fireball. Feckless. The only one I'd probably not go with in that list because it's scary. Well, it sounds like a bad word, too. Yeah. And a kid. I had to really enunciate that. Listen them out. Well, there's Dancer on Prancer, and I got a couple more here. Flights today take longer than they used to. Like, a flight from New York to Houston is almost four hours when it was two and a half hours in 1973. What? Yeah. Why? Amy, why do you think? Pound of butter. Pound of eggs. Pound of eggs. No. Airlines fly slower to save on fuel costs. They could go faster. That's some bull crap. I want to ask the pilot. There's a speed limit. Looked at me like stupid. What? I Meant was, could you just go? Could you just keep it jammed like you're behind? Like, if we're running 30 minutes back, can you just jam it the whole way and go? He thought you meant, like, other signs up there that say, like, yeah, like, can we just. Can we just go all the way? Pedal to the metal the whole time? But they don't do that because he told me they didn't do that. So I was like, so what? Is there a speed limit? And he was like, are you an idiot? And I was like, I guess, because I don't know the answer to that. I know there's not, like, air cops up there pulling people over. That would be embarrassing if you're the pilot. Because if I get pulled over, even my wife's in the car. I'm embarrassed. I'm like, oh, man. Because I'm about to be demasculated because I'm at this. I'm surrendering myself to the cop, and I'm just like, you're the boss and I'm the loser. Right? Can you imagine a pilot who did that? And all the people in the back, how embarrassed they'd be? Grocery stores sell a total of $5.5 billion every year in impulse buys Lunchbox. We need to open up a grocery store. Impulse buys is impulsive at $5.5 billion. And then finally, friends went through three other titles. Feckless Rolo Drifter. No, no. Insomnia Cafe, six of one and friends like Us. And the original theme song, which is not on the sheet here of Friends, was not I'll Be There for you. It was a different song, which was a hit for another band. Do you know the answer to this fun trivia? I watched that friend's documentary thing too. Or that whenever they got the reunion. Yeah, it. Do you know that, Eddie, I don't think complain about people not giving you the credit you deserve, but I don't know that one. It's by a band called R. Everybody Hurts. No, that'd be a jam, though. That's my favorite song. All slow. Makes everyone sad before they watch it. I believe we'll fact check this, if you don't mind, Mike. I believe it is Shiny Happy People. Shiny. It's one of those R.E.M. songs that is upbeat, so it is the original. Was Mike Shiny Happy People used in the pilot? Wow. In the pilot too. Whoa. Did you ever watch the pilot of Full House? And it's a different dad. No, it's not, Dan. It's not a Bob Saget? No, dude, I Learned this few years ago. Surely, Mike, you've seen it. Me too. It's so bizarre. Whoa. The pilot of Full House was not Bob Saget. Bob Saget was not the dad. So what, they had a dad then they just fire him after one episode? Sort of. They wanted Danny Tanner or Bob Saget, but he was doing a different deal. They hired a different guy. Then he became available that the guy's name is John Posey. Go look. Just Google on tik tok or YouTube the pilot to Full House because it is not even with the. It is not Bob Saget. That is bizarre. And it is bizarre. It's like they change dads. The other one is. And you guys know this one. I am sure of it. In Back to the Future. It wasn't Michael J. Fox. Yes. You can do it. Eric. Eric. Eric. Sts. Yeah. Oh, man. And they couldn't get. Have you ever seen that footage? But. But you know what I did read about that was that they had almost had all the movies. Had a lot of it done. They'd reshoot a lot of the stuff. Yeah. That's crazy. Yeah. Eric Stoltz and totally different movie. He was like more serious, man. We got really fun today, man. I am looking at John Posey. I mean, he was the dad dude, but. No, but here's the thing. The poor guy, he didn't really do much. He just had like cameos and different things. Like he didn't. Yeah, that was a bit. I mean, sometimes it just doesn't work out. Life. Life, man.
