  • Quote:
    • “I take offense to being called a poser fan.” — Bobby ([03:12])

    • “Let me show you an unhealthy filter…” — Bobby ([04:04])

2. Sports Betting & Explaining the “Over/Under”

[04:19–06:26]

  • Quote:
    • “You got this… What’s the over?...” — Bobby, quizzing Amy ([05:07])

[09:47–14:23]

• Amy recounts a YouTube video asserting grade inflation and declining expectations in education:
  • “An A now is like a B, you know?” — Amy ([10:14])
  • Stats & cycles: Every 5 years, standards get a bit lower.
  • Bobby fact-checks: U.S. spends a lot per student, but infrastructure (buildings, sports fields) absorbs huge costs, not actual educational tools or teacher salaries.
    • Quote:
      • “A lot of our educational spending comes to freaking buying buildings.” — Bobby ([13:30])

4. Celebrity Side Hustles: ‘Nashville’ TV Appearances

[15:14–18:50]

5. Office Hijinks — Who’s Funniest?

[18:50–21:05]

• Lunchbox confronts Eddie about calling him out for eating extra bagels; recounts classic office “who ate all the snacks?” drama, with all hosts chiming in and mock-exaggerating each other's actions.
  • “He thought he was hilarious and nobody cared about your dumb joke.” — Lunchbox ([19:29])
  • Bobby notes how these friendly disputes always get “embellished.”

6. GPS Theories: Are Maps Controlling Us?

[22:34–27:14]

• Eddie shares a semi-paranoid theory that GPS platforms might intentionally reroute traffic to create jams and then “solve” them for users, positing some sinister algorithmic puppeteering.
  • “I think they're actually making traffic worse… so they can control us.” — Eddie ([22:39–24:29])

[30:01–32:34]

• Abby spots Kix Brooks at Walmart; Raymundo sees Post Malone and Jordan Davis at the mall and Chick-fil-A, respectively.

8. Bar Ownership, Licensing, and the Eric Church Call

[32:35–33:36]

• Bobby explains how most artist-branded bars are just licensing deals, not actual artist-owned.

9. Hidden Song Parodies & Early Nashville Days

[34:23–39:47]

[41:32–46:57]

• Extensive analysis of Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman’s public divorce filings:
  • Reports (from E! News) claim both make $100,000/month.
  • Bobby clarifies that these numbers are likely mutually agreed, not accurate reflections—celebrities often “camouflage” income via LLCs and legal arrangements.
    • Quote:
      • “There is no $100,000 that they can determine is the set amount … They have, with their lawyers, somewhat camouflaged their money because it was agreed upon mutually.” — Bobby ([43:05])
  • Discussion of prenuptial clauses, including a real agreement paying Keith Urban $600,000 per year for every year he remained drug-free.

11. Celebrities and “Lyme Disease Excuses”

[55:46–63:45]

• Skepticism around celebrities citing Lyme disease for show absences (esp. Justin Timberlake).
  • Is it overdiagnosed, overused as a “get out of tour” card?
  • Research and debate on how you actually get Lyme disease—turns out, nearly always via tick bite.
• Amy introduces “bee venom therapy” as a controversial Lyme treatment; Eddie, an animal lover, objects to bee harm.
• Wider discussion on public vs. private illness narratives and how sometimes “increased awareness” leads to more diagnoses.

12. Language Fails, Technology News, and AOL’s End

[52:28–66:37]

• Amy confesses she’s always said "lollygaggling" instead of "lollygagging."
• AOL Dial-Up service finally ends after 30 years; only ~200,000 users worldwide still on dial-up (to general amazement and nostalgia).
  • “I think I’m more surprised that 200,000 people still have dial up than I am 200,000 people still had AOL.” — Bobby ([66:02])

13. Family Life & Weekends

[69:11–71:55]

[Bobby Bones]

What'd you do yesterday?

[Amy]

Why does it so hard to remember what we do?

[Eddie]

Because the days are hard. They're long.

[Amy]

Stevenson had practice. We're prepping for State. I have to remind him over and over he cannot run today. He wants to so badly. He wants to run all the time. There's no practice and he cannot run. So. Oh, ordered his fat heads are not gonna come in. So yesterday ordered foam fingers.

[Bobby Bones]

Wait, so you have the fat heads coming in so you'll have big heads of his, but you can't use them during the race.

[Amy]

Yeah, because they're delayed. They were supposed to be here by now, so that's something I dealt with yesterday. Was trying to track down the fat heads and it looks like they're not gonna make it in time unless they miraculously arrive today and then we'll have them for in the morning. But just in case, we ordered foam fingers and pom poms. So like, you know Those big fingers.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, you know, the big fingers made.

[Amy]

Of foam for sporting events that say, like, everyone. So, yeah, I've worked on that. Just. I don't know. I can't remember anything else.

[Bobby Bones]

You watched the Cubs win yesterday. Oh, yeah. It was a good one. Yeah. So they won the series two one.

[Amy]

That's why you got your Cubs hat on.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I've worn this, like, three times in the past two weeks. Oh, yeah. So not really that reason, but yeah, it is a blue. I think I have it on mostly because it's blue. Yeah, it matches my blue sweater, but yeah.

[Amy]

Okay, so. Dumb question.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Yeah. Because that's what you say to a poser fan. Like, you're wearing. It's like you're wearing your hat because now I've worn it, like, 10 times.

[Amy]

I know that you're a real fan.

[Bobby Bones]

So I take offense to being called a poser fan.

[Amy]

I didn't call you that. That's your own filter.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, for sure. I live my life through my own filter.

[Amy]

Okay, that's not what I meant. I just meant you're. You woke up and you're happy the Cubs won.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I feel like that's posery, too, to put on something after the. After. Yeah.

[Amy]

Okay. Well, yeah, okay.

[Bobby Bones]

That's my own filter doing that, though.

[Amy]

Well, so anyway, you watch the Cubs.

[Bobby Bones]

Win, Eddie, you wanted that cowboy hat because they played pretty good last week.

[Eddie]

No, I wear it all the time.

[Amy]

Yeah, I got you. I got. Eddie.

[Eddie]

That hat actually is a new one. The other one's dirty.

[Amy]

Oh, you liked it so much you got a new one.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah, that's.

[Amy]

That's a compliment.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang.

[Eddie]

I usually wear the other one more, but this is, like, the presentable one.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, my filter would have been, like, dang, you didn't need more than one. I got you. You didn't want to clean that one up.

[Amy]

Okay, well, Eddie, like, hey, everybody listening? Let me show you a healthy filter. Eddie, that's awesome that you like the hat I got you so much that you wear it. It's dirty. And that you got yourself another one.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, let me show you unhealthy.

[Eddie]

Show me, show me. Let me see which one I like better.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, you can't anymore. The hat I got. You can't even clean it. Like, try to clean it a couple times before you get a new one. Oof.

[Eddie]

I don't like the way that one made me feel. I like Amy's filter better.

[Bobby Bones]

So. Yeah, I bet a bunch of money on it too. And I bet a Thousand bucks on the game. But I bet. Well, I bet 500 on each. I bet 500 because the Cubs were plus one and a half. What does that mean?

[Amy]

Oh, my gosh. It means that whatever the score is, if you add a point and a half, they'll still. And they. It makes them win even though they're losing. The point and a half could take them over and they win.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So if they lose by one, they.

[Amy]

Still win the bet.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's good.

[Eddie]

You got it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Final score. Add the point, the plus or the minus. So I bet the Cubs plus one and a half because they were the underdog. And I didn't need it in the end because they won straight up. But I also bet the over, and the over was at seven and a half. Now, what do you think an over is?

[Eddie]

You got this.

[Bobby Bones]

You got this.

[Amy]

You got plus one, minus one, the over.

[Bobby Bones]

What's the over? I said it's seven. The over was seven and a half.

[Amy]

Does this have to do with score?

[Bobby Bones]

You'll get this. You're smart.

[Amy]

Thanks. The over is. Well, now, I'm just saying it can't be the same as the plus and the minus. So if they win over that by that many points. Exactly.

[Bobby Bones]

No. So that's a pretty good guess. The. Like, an over under is the. The number of runs or points you have to bet if it goes higher.

[Eddie]

Or lower than the total number of.

[Bobby Bones]

Points, like the total between both teams added.

[Amy]

Oh, okay.

[Bobby Bones]

So I bet the over on seven and a half. They didn't hit the over. So basically I broke even.

[Eddie]

What if they end at 6, 5.

[Bobby Bones]

Maybe 5, maybe 4. It was maybe 31 or 3 2. I don't know. I want.

[Amy]

I would have never gotten that, by the way, but may go up.

[Eddie]

I bet you would have.

[Amy]

Nah, maybe I would have maybe gotten there. But then now I feel like an idiot. My filter is because, Bobby, you'll get this. You're smart. And then I'm like, well, see?

[Bobby Bones]

And here I am going. My filters going, hey, give her some positivity.

[Amy]

She'll believe in her.

[Bobby Bones]

Because. Yes.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it didn't work.

[Amy]

And then I'm like, oh, that's what I did.

[Bobby Bones]

And then I worked. I worked out for two hours yesterday.

[Eddie]

Two hours.

[Bobby Bones]

Not because I'm a monster or, like, any fitter than I've ever been, because I'm not. But the game was on.

[Eddie]

Oh, so you were taking a lot of breaks.

[Bobby Bones]

I was just like, I. I do this thing on an app. And so I did that, and then I There was no cardio in it, so it was like a 45 minute workout. And then I walked for 45 minutes as the game was on in the gym. And then I went and got in the sauna. We have a sauna. So I got in it as the game was up. I was just trying to like, stay like active while the game was on. So, yeah, if I felt like super muscular today, that's why extra muscular. And I'm not.

[Amy]

I'm in detoxed.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm in below mid baseline shape. For me, I have no reason to be in shape other than like general health. So I just stay in pretty good shape. But if, like, I have a reason to, I'll definitely do things like if I've got to be on camera or I'm training for something so I'm not any stronger or in better shape. But when I saw Lionel Richie the other night, he kept hitting me in the arms going, you're so much buffer than last time. And in my mind I'm going, am I fatter? He's like, you didn't used to beat. And he's like slapping me on the arms backstage. He's like, what have you been doing? Like, how are you getting so, so buff? And in my head my filter is like, I must be way fatter because I'm not more buff by any means.

[Eddie]

You don't use the word buff if you mean fat, like, ever.

[Amy]

Yeah, he would say like thick, but it can.

[Bobby Bones]

Or bigger, but it can be misconstrued. Like, I could just see somebody who's put on some weight be like, dude, you look bit like Jack. I don't know.

[Amy]

Okay, did you.

[Bobby Bones]

My filter, my filter screwed me there.

[Amy]

Take your own thing to Tim McGraw recently where you're like, dude, you. What'd you say?

[Bobby Bones]

No, I said, you look extra jacked.

[Amy]

Extra jacked.

[Bobby Bones]

But he was doing extra work.

[Amy]

I know, but he's doing less cardio. He said, so I'm doing less everything. I don't know, I was just trying to help you.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm doing less everything. So, yeah, I did that. And then we watched the first episode of Slower Horses last night. It's like season four or five. My wife and I did. I also, she was feeling pretty good. Like she didn't have a bad illness, day, sickness day yesterday. And so I slept in there with her because if she's feeling bad, I'll just go sleep upstairs because she's going to be up and then she's going to feel guilty that she's up and not get up as much, even though she feels bad because she knows I have to wake up in the morning. And it is just a pattern that we both don't want to get into. So I slept in my own bed last night. I've been traveling a bunch this week, and my sleep score was 93.

[Eddie]

Whoa.

[Bobby Bones]

That is so.

[Amy]

That's good.

[Bobby Bones]

I never hit the 90.

[Eddie]

That's out of 100.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's an A I'm talking about if I hit the 70s. I'm like, good score. I with my sleep score. Kind of like you in High School. Cs were good.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Ds got these.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, most of mine are Ds, though. Most of my nights are Ds. Like, when I showed Amy mine the other day was in the 60s, or maybe even the 50s, and I was like, look at this is how bad I sleep. Dang.

[Eddie]

So. So do you think it's because you were so tired you slept better or.

[Bobby Bones]

In my bed? I was in my own bed.

[Eddie]

In your own bed?

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Eddie]

We've talked a lot about this own bed thing. When you're married, I mean, this is the best you've slept.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, it's one night because I've had a terrible week of sleep because I've been traveling so much.

[Amy]

You think you slept good because the Cubs won?

[Eddie]

Oh, that too.

[Amy]

No, ridiculous. I've always been a Cubs fan.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but they won, so that's special.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I thought that.

[Amy]

They win.

[Eddie]

No, but this is the playoffs.

[Bobby Bones]

They haven't won a playoff series. It's like 2017 or something.

[Eddie]

When they won the World Series.

[Bobby Bones]

No, they won the series in 16.

[Amy]

Okay. Speaking of A's, B's, and C's, when we move off this, I have something to say. I just don't want to forget it.

[Bobby Bones]

A's, B's, and C's. Oh, you can have it.

[Amy]

Okay. So, you know, you said, like, Eddie in school, he made Cs. Something I did yesterday. Speaking of, I watched this whole YouTube video about grades these days with kids and how expectations are just lower. And, like, an A now is like a B, you know?

[Eddie]

Wait, you serious?

[Amy]

Yes.

[Eddie]

They said, is that why my kids.

[Amy]

Have A's and B's every five years?

[Bobby Bones]

Time for Billy Madison.

[Amy]

Every.

[Bobby Bones]

You go back, get on a roll.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

Every five. Like 2015. 2020, 2025. Like, every five years or so? It, like, we keep declining, and we're the only country that this is happening in, and we spend more on education than any other place. And so I Was like, well, this is going to be a problem.

[Eddie]

Because lowering the standard.

[Amy]

Yeah. The top 1% of people, though, they stay the same. Like if you're a 1% type learner, like, you're like, they're saying if top 1% of middle school, high school, like you're already Ivy League, like you're going to go there, that you're just that type of learner and you're very motivated. But everybody else, they're like, yeah, A's these days, your kids, your. If your kids in high school and they're making an A, they're probably making an A for like junior high stuff, even though they're now in high school.

[Bobby Bones]

What I heard you say is we spend more money on education than anybody else.

[Amy]

Yeah, that's what they said.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know if that's true or not true.

[Amy]

Correct.

[Bobby Bones]

But I can't imagine that's true.

[Amy]

I trust these guys I was listening to. They sounded like they definitely knew what they were talking about. And it was more so like, don't lose hope. But you know that like sometimes, Eddie, this also made me think of us especially as adopted parents. Like we adopted kids that maybe their education was a little bit off. And that's why my boyfriend even sent me this YouTube video, was because of some stuff we're going through with schooling with both of my kids. And they didn't get some of the fundamentals that other kids got. So he's like, watch this. Because maybe we just need to go back to like, even though my son's in eighth grade, like, let's go back to like, forget some of his eighth grade homework. Like, just forget it. We need to go back to first grade. Who cares? Like at home he'll be learning first grade stuff. So that's what we're working on with his tutor. But that's what these guys were saying. Like, hey, it may be hard for your kid to hear, but as a parent, it's going to serve them much better if they go back and get some of those fundamentals. Because it all, it's like building blocks. It all stacks on top of each other. But sometimes we're like, ah, well, they'll figure that out later. They don't need to know that from second grade. Well, yes they do, because there's value in mastery. Like if until you've mastered that second grade thing, don't move on.

[Bobby Bones]

So we don't spend per population more than other countries. Oh, we spend more per student, but we don't spend more per population, which is why we're dumber. The US does not have the highest per resident spending once you include children, adults, non students, even when adults were children. Differences in cost structure, which is salaries, infrastructure, regulatory costs, and other factors are higher. It costs more for buildings here.

[Amy]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

To build for schools. So all that also goes into what we're spending. I just. And then private funding versus public funding. Rich kids are getting much more spent on them, which also counts when you average it out to what poor kids are getting as well, which isn't the same, which is also why our education system is kind of sucky.

[Amy]

Well, they were specifically also talking about private schools as well, and that the expectations there are even lower. So some kids, some families. He used an example of like, you might be spending 30, $40,000 a year for your kids to go to this school, and you're not getting the same education that they used to get for that 30, 40,000.

[Bobby Bones]

I typed in, how can we be spending more? And a lot of our educational spending comes to freaking buying buildings.

[Eddie]

I guess real estate, too.

[Bobby Bones]

To have schools more than actually paying teachers and paying for tools. Oh, to make kids smarter.

[Eddie]

I mean, that makes sense.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Higher spending does not necessarily guarantee better educational outcomes in the per capita metric you choose, which can be per student, per resident, share of gdp, etc, comparison. So.

[Amy]

So I know. I was paraphrasing and lumping that. I'm sure they broke it down more, but kind of based on what you're. I know they said those things. I guess I just don't know the complete breakdown of what they were comparing that to when it comes to other countries.

[Bobby Bones]

Because where other countries may not invest in real estate or a massive building, they may actually put it into the tools given to kids to learn. And giving higher teachers higher salaries.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Which actually does affect the total outcome of learning. More so than just having a school.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And having land to put a school on and spending all the money on it and focusing on it more than actually getting the kids smarter.

[Eddie]

I mean, our schools here have a lot of land. You know, you think about the playground or like, even the place where you can just go and play football. Like, we have huge fields. Our schools are built on, like, huge plots of land.

[Bobby Bones]

All the football stadiums and high schools in Texas are counted. And they're really.

[Eddie]

I mean, those are humongous.

[Amy]

They're like, oh, well, they did talk about how sometimes parents, like. Like, they always understand a sports analogy. Like, they might really struggle with their kid going back to, like, the fundamentals, but they're like, what's the first thing you do in sports if a kid's not performing. Well, you go back to the basics.

[Bobby Bones]

Pinch em, cut em.

[Amy]

No, no, but, like, maybe you need to go back to the basics and.

[Bobby Bones]

Get outta here, kid.

[Amy]

On top of that.

[Bobby Bones]

No more learning for you.

[Amy]

Well, anyway, I don't know. That's another little thing I did yesterday.

[Bobby Bones]

Raymundo, your sister saw me as an extra on Nashville.

[Raymundo]

Yeah, she's binging it and she goes back and starts watching it. And so you were a reporter asking questions. And then I told her where to see me in a scene. So she saw me as an extra. You as like, one of the reporters. DJ local, you know, and so she was, like, curious. She goes, how much did you guys get paid for all that?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't. I was. I had three different roles on that show, which was crazy, because I was a reporter who asked questions in my first little entrance into the world of Nashville, the TV show. And I asked a couple questions. So I had lines and then I went back and I was something else. And then I had real lines as myself. I played. When the show was ending. I was playing me talking with, like.

[Eddie]

Connie Britton, Raina James.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, like, with the lines. And that was weird.

[Amy]

So she's binging it, probably because that's something that just got added to Netflix, too.

[Eddie]

Oh, really?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm about to be. I'm about to be famous. Wow.

[Eddie]

All over again.

[Bobby Bones]

My extra, my middle and my. My scene. Yeah, that was weird because they would go like, hey, I know this. You did this last time, but now we feel like we should use you in a more prominent role. And I was like, okay, yeah, that's bizarre. I don't know. 800 bucks probably, at first, because it wasn't an extra because I had lines.

[Amy]

Oh, well, now that it's on Netflix, you get another check.

[Eddie]

Oh, good question. Maybe mailbox money.

[Bobby Bones]

Maybe. I know the last time I did it was in the thousands. Whenever.

[Amy]

Last time you got a mailbox check?

[Bobby Bones]

No, the last role I did on Nashville. Oh, it was in the thousands.

[Eddie]

And the last role was the one you playing yourself?

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. And they would talk about me when I wasn't even on the show.

[Eddie]

They would. They'd be like, I was on the Bobby Bones Show.

[Bobby Bones]

Somebody was on the Bobby Bones show. And she really killed it. I'd be like, wait, what? I get paid for that?

[Eddie]

Use my name.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Yeah. So I don't know, but I. All in. Probably like $5,000 for all three appearances. Ray, what about you?

[Raymundo]

I was a Lot less than that. I told her just because I was an extra. But I think I was there from, let's say, 11:00am to about 7:00pm and they gave me 60 bucks.

[Eddie]

Dang.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang.

[Raymundo]

Because there's a lot of hurry up and wait. When that TV camera's rolling, you just sit there and do nothing.

[Bobby Bones]

What were you doing to get that job? Did you see it online?

[Raymundo]

I. Yeah, I believe they went to you. That's how you. You know that you had got it through your people. But me, I think I just. It was something online. It was part of this. Come be an extra. And I did that. And there was some scene at the Bluebird and there was another scene that I was actually at the same location as you.

[Bobby Bones]

But.

[Raymundo]

Yeah, yours was obviously through your people.

[Bobby Bones]

But you were at the Bluebird for scenes I saw.

[Raymundo]

Yeah, because that's the scene I was with. Scarlett was performing there.

[Bobby Bones]

That's pretty cool. It's weird when they do that tour, they're like Nashville back together playing all the songs. Nobody knows the songs from Nashville. Like, it's a cool thing to like. If you watch the show, they're all together, but I want them to do covers while they're up there.

[Eddie]

I think they do they just. Because I saw them at CMA Fest. They put. They got back together at CMA Fest.

[Bobby Bones]

Did they play covers or do they play. That's what I'm saying.

[Eddie]

I feel like they did a cover. Maybe like Johnny Cash or something. Or maybe that was just Charles Eston and then he brought out the crew to sing one original. Something like that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I don't think I'd want many originals if I'm going to watch the cast. Because those songs really didn't last. Yeah, because they weren't meant to last. They were just meant for a moment on the show. And I have a friend who wrote a bunch of songs for that show and produced that was kind of his entrance into Nashville, was producing a lot of those songs. But that's funny. It's on Netflix. I wondered why I was feeling so famous lately. You had a feeling people must be seeing my extras. I was extra, I guess. I wasn't an extra. I was a. Prefer to walk on, basically. If we're doing sports analogy, Lunchbox wants to know why Eddie thinks he's so funny. What happened with Eddie?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, Eddie thinks he's a comedian. Yesterday there was this food in the kitchen and everybody's lined up to get food. So I line up and I get food and Eddie's like yells out in front of the whole building. Lunchbox. Why are you getting food? I've already seen you eat this morning. And I'm like, everybody is eating. What's the big deal? And he goes, I've seen you already eat three things. And everybody's like, I ate earlier, too, but I'm getting some. It was just so hard. No one said that, and no one laughed. It was just like. And Eddie repeated himself, like, twice to make sure everybody heard him. And no one laughed. And I was like, dang, Eddie, you really think you're funny. But no one cared about your dumb joke.

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like this is the battle. The exaggerators here, big time. Because you also were probably. Well, okay, you tell your side.

[Eddie]

No, I mean, he was fighting people to get a bagel. And I'm like, dude, you've already eaten. Like, we've been here for 10 hours already. So. So, yeah, I walked up to the table, and I'm like. Because he was like, fighting people for a knife. Like, give me the knife. I got.

[Amy]

Fighting people for the knife.

[Eddie]

I'm telling you.

[Amy]

This is where we're exaggerating.

[Eddie]

No, no, no. No exaggeration. People were trying to get cream cheese. He was like, no, no, let me get that first real quick.

[Bobby Bones]

I got to go.

[Eddie]

I got to get back the studio, and I go do. Whoa, whoa, Relax, man. I've already seen you eat breakfast. Like, let other people eat. That's all I said.

[Lunchbox]

You're so funny, Eddie.

[Bobby Bones]

That's funny.

[Lunchbox]

He thought he was. He thought he was hilarious. And everybody's like. And one guy was like, I already ate two, but I'm getting some now.

[Bobby Bones]

You said everybody was.

[Amy]

Now it's one guy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Ye. These are the great embellishers. Both of them.

[Eddie]

People did laugh, though. Lunchbox people did laugh.

[Lunchbox]

No one laughed. And literally, there was one girl. She got a bagel, and then I was cutting a bagel in half. There was no fight over any knife. And then I put the honey walnut cream cheese on there, and I went about my way. But when Bobby was getting food, Eddie says nothing.

[Eddie]

He's like, I didn't see Bobby get food.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, he's all quiet and like, oh, let me be quiet. Then once Bobby walks away.

[Bobby Bones]

Lunch.

[Eddie]

Why are you eating?

[Bobby Bones]

I got. I got four pieces of melon.

[Lunchbox]

But he didn't call you out quickly.

[Bobby Bones]

When nobody was there because I wanted to get out of the way.

[Eddie]

Did you fight anyone for a melon?

[Bobby Bones]

No, I got. I jumped in before anybody was there, and I got four quick pieces of melon. And got out because I already had breakfast.

[Eddie]

Exactly what was like. And then he tried to get back at me because I was, like, filling up my coffee, like, what are you doing? Getting more coffee. You already had coffee this morning. I'm like, okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Yesterday there was a surprise, like, breakfast and little celebratory moment for somebody who works in our building who's going into the radio hall of fame as an executive. And she kind of runs our syndication company, I guess. She does. She's one of the people that runs our syndication company. And Scuba Steve came over and said, hey, everybody's meeting over in this area because she's about to come over and they're gonna surprise her. We didn't know anything about it. We didn't know ahead of time it was happening. So I'm like, when exactly? And he's like, sometime between, like, 9, 30 and 10. And so I'm like, okay, well, let us know. He goes, you guys can probably walk over there now. So we walk over there, and as soon as we get settled, she comes around the corner and they surprise her. And I'm the first one there. She looks at me like, I did it. She looked at me like. She's like, bobby, oh, my God. And I just there, like, yeah, this is for you. And it was for her, and I'm super happy for her. And I voted for her.

[Amy]

She said, thank you.

[Eddie]

She did say thank you. Your spot was perfect because you were the first person she saw.

[Bobby Bones]

No, but I had nothing to do with it. I just accidentally walked into it. I'm glad I could be there. Yeah, she thought, like, I was one of the main people. And then she referenced me in talking about, like, contracts getting done. And she's like, you know, Bob, because I just stumbled into it. I'm happy for her. I really like her, but I had nothing to do with it. I got way too much credit. I'll say it. I did nothing. I didn't plan it. I didn't know it was happening until five minutes before. I was just standing. I wasn't even standing in that place on purpose. From where we're walking in the hallway, that's just the first place you stand. And so, yeah, that's. That's me going, I had nothing to do with it.

[Eddie]

That was funny.

[Bobby Bones]

And I got a little extra credit for that one. Eddie has a theory on GPS maps.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah. I think they're messing with us. I think they're actually making traffic worse. I don't know why they would want to make traffic worse, but What I'm seeing, like, the other day I was trying to get somewhere, and there's. If you leave my neighborhood to get on the main interstate, there's like four or five ways you can actually do it. You can go through the mainway, there's another main way, and then there's like three neighborhood ways. So I always go the same way because the GPS tells me to go the same way. Then one day the GPS is like, no, go this way. And I'm like, well, that's weird, because.

[Bobby Bones]

There'S traffic in the other place probably, right?

[Eddie]

Maybe, right? So I was like, nah, I don't believe it. There's no way there's traffic there right now. So I went my original way. Guess what? Not one car. It was saying on the GPS that my original way was traffic, do not go that way. I'd take it anyway. It lied to me.

[Bobby Bones]

Is there a chance there may have been an accident that was just cleared.

[Eddie]

Dude, there were no cars. Like, it was like a ghost town freewheeling all the way down that road. So I'm thinking, like, do the GPS just say, like, you know what? Today, let's make this road congested. That way we can change the route and make some.

[Bobby Bones]

But. But why before, when you have a theory, you should theorize why?

[Eddie]

I feel like they create the traffic so that they can send people away, that there's no traffic eventually and look like they're saving the world.

[Bobby Bones]

So you're saying they're moving people just to show people that they are keeping constant awareness.

[Eddie]

They can control us.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, that's drastic. They're only controlling you.

[Eddie]

But they. They're not.

[Bobby Bones]

But they're not making you do that.

[Eddie]

Because I have seen, too. Like, when the GPS says, like, go this way, and you start seeing cars cut in lines just to follow the route of the gps.

[Bobby Bones]

To say.

[Eddie]

I'm like, oh, they obviously have the same GPS I do. And so we're all going this certain way, and they're creating a jam in that area. And then they probably.

[Bobby Bones]

Why would they do that?

[Eddie]

So that they can control us, but they can't.

[Bobby Bones]

They're not controlling you.

[Eddie]

And then they can say, like, you know what? Do not go on whatever. Bobby Road. Take Eddie Road.

[Bobby Bones]

Instead, they're influencing you, and they look.

[Eddie]

Like geniuses because they congested Bobby Road. So now they're like, oh, wow, look, these guys are so smart, they sent me on Eddie Road because Bobby. But Bobby Road is congested. Well, they did that. They did that on purpose.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I don't Think there's any basis to that?

[Amy]

No.

[Eddie]

Do you guys not feel that sometimes?

[Bobby Bones]

No. I think there's probably an accident or something there that someone didn't push. Is the accident gone? Cuz you have that option where it's like, is this car or the car that's pulled over, is it still there? And you put yes or no.

[Eddie]

Oh yeah. Do you do that?

[Bobby Bones]

Nah. Never?

[Eddie]

Nah.

[Bobby Bones]

Never.

[Eddie]

I don't do that.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't review stuff.

[Eddie]

I appreciate when people do that.

[Bobby Bones]

Me too. I look, I need people to do that yet. Do I? Nah.

[Eddie]

How is the police thing legal? Like to say that there's a police car there. Like I feel like that should be outlawed. Like the old fuzz bus.

[Bobby Bones]

You're not supposed to tell people that there is a police officer that is either monitoring for speed or whatever they're doing because they could be actually looking for a criminal. That's why.

[Eddie]

So if they allow it, I mean the app lets you report a police.

[Bobby Bones]

Officer, but I think now that's been. That has been challenged at the Supreme Court as free speech.

[Eddie]

Oh, like you can freely say there's a cop there.

[Bobby Bones]

Yep.

[Eddie]

It's complicated.

[Bobby Bones]

They say speed trap ahead or something like that. Speed trap is the word they use in the app.

[Eddie]

Oh, mine's a little picture of a cop. Cop ahead in two miles. And then they ask you, is it. Is he still there?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

You know what's crazy too though? Like GPS's. If it said just go down this bridge and the bridge isn't finished, we'd all do it and we'd all probably just fall off.

[Amy]

Some people and they die.

[Bobby Bones]

My friend Michael and Dwight.

[Eddie]

Oh, about both of them.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. While they drove into a pond.

[Eddie]

Because the GPS said so.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I don't think I would.

[Eddie]

I mean that would be the biggest hack ever. Like if a hacker wants to get rid of someone, it would.

[Bobby Bones]

The problem is an incomplete bridge. That's why I said an incomplete bridge would have a bunch of signs going up to it. So they'd have to do both hack and physically get out and move all the signs.

[Eddie]

True.

[Bobby Bones]

Because there would be barriers to keep cars from doing that. If there was an incomplete bridge, there just wouldn't be a wide open bridge.

[Amy]

And then also bank that. They're just like not paying attention at all whatsoever.

[Eddie]

Oh, if the.

[Bobby Bones]

Listen, if there were no signs and it was GPS was saying it, you'd go. If it was just free will I drive off the bridge there too?

[Amy]

But I think, goodbye my lovers, goodbye my friend.

[Eddie]

And you're like, what happened?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, I would for sure. But I guess my pushback on that is if there is an incomplete bridge, it's hard to even get up to the bridge because they have so many barriers put up so cars can't follow. Like an old GPS that hasn't been updated. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's terrible theory, but I like it. Thanks for bringing it up, man.

[Eddie]

I thought about it for, like, an hour yesterday.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you challenging yourself to have broader questions? Yes. Thoughts? Yes. See, that's what I hear. I like that.

[Eddie]

You know what I did the other day that we talked about? I don't know, like, two or three weeks ago, we were talking about looking up more. You know, I don't know why I said. I said something like, I don't look up ever. So I started looking up more. Like, I want to see the sky more. And what if I see, like, a ufo?

[Bobby Bones]

Like that new thing coming to Earth we've been talking about forever? I'm telling you, whatever it is, we ain't used to having it. I saw a guy last night talking about it who was, like, a astrophysicist. He was like. And he was talking about the chemical makeup of it. He's like, I don't know what this is.

[Eddie]

Oh, the one that was caught on. On that image or whatever.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you find it up on the mic? Would you mind looking that up? And then I. I watched more yesterday on 25 whistles. We were talking about how my algorithm is all. Well, a lot of it is like, magician secrets revealed.

[Eddie]

Okay, sounds cool.

[Bobby Bones]

You're not interested in that.

[Amy]

Magician secrets being revealed.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, they're tricks. Tricks like David Copperfield, David Blaine.

[Eddie]

How did they do it?

[Bobby Bones]

Very famous. And they will break them down. And it's a guy in a mask going, yeah, you think this is real, but here's how. And then they show you the breakdown of how they do these illusions. And so if you watch one, you're gonna get nine, and I watch all nine. So then I get 27. That's how it works. And so we were going through a David Copperfield trip where he, like, illusion, where he flew over the Grand Canyon, and nobody could figure it out for years.

[Amy]

So how do you do it?

[Bobby Bones]

Because they zoom out so you can see him. But what they didn't show was the extra, extra, extra long cables from a helicopter. Oh, and they had just attached it to his, like, shirt. And you don't see it because the color matches the rock behind it.

[Eddie]

Oh, wow.

[Bobby Bones]

And they do Zoom back in this 80s special and show you there's nothing he's not. But they zoom just the perfect amount to keep this extremely high helicopter with an extremely long wire.

[Amy]

It still seems dangerous, though.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, probably.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Mike, what do you see? Not seeing any updates. That one that avoided the Hellfire missile, Right?

[Eddie]

That's it.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, no, no.

[Eddie]

That's not it.

[Bobby Bones]

No, that's a ufo. That's like an alien spacecraft. The one that's coming down that was hiding behind the sun, hiding behind the moon that keeps approaching Earth.

[Eddie]

Oh, I don't know what that is. We've never talked about.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, we have. We have. I think you just hear me. It's just Charlie Browns. Whenever I talk about this stuff, I.

[Eddie]

Don'T remember that one.

[Amy]

Me neither.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, well, keep thinking. Keep thinking on stuff.

[Eddie]

Yeah, And I'm gonna look up more.

[Amy]

Yeah, look up.

[Bobby Bones]

But don't look up too much because your eyes will burn.

[Amy]

You don't have to look right into the sun sometimes. Just look into the trees. Look up.

[Eddie]

Look at the clouds. The way the clouds moves. They're just amazing the way they move.

[Bobby Bones]

Abby saw Kicks Brooks at Walmart.

[Eddie]

No. No way.

[Bobby Bones]

From Brooks. And done. Yeah, True.

[Amy]

What was he getting?

[Bobby Bones]

True or false, Abby?

[Amy]

True.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

How crazy, Abby.

[Eddie]

That's amazing.

[Bobby Bones]

At Walmart.

[Amy]

It was so cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So tell a story.

[Amy]

Yeah. Well, I walked in and I heard his voice because I was really close to him. And he has, like, that distinct, like, accent, you know? And he was with his wife, and they were just shopping around, and then I just, you know, moved on. But then I was checking out, and he was at the next. The cashier next to me with his wife, and he was just chatting it up with the cashier forever. Like, he's just the nicest guy.

[Bobby Bones]

He's a very nice guy. Yeah. Very talkative guy. But Kicks Brooks from Brooks and Dunn at freaking Walmart.

[Eddie]

That's amazing.

[Bobby Bones]

You want another one?

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Raymonda, who'd you see at the mall?

[Raymundo]

Yeah, so mine's a two. For the first person I was sitting there, I was at Zara, and then below is the Nordstrom's. And there was a whole group of people. It was mainly, I'd say, high schoolers probably, and then kind of maybe middle schoolers, because there was some moms around. It was freaking Post Malone at the mall. And not wearing sunglasses. He had his cowboy hat on. Dallas Cowboys jersey. Just hanging out outside of Nordstrom's taking pictures.

[Eddie]

Yeah, The Dallas Cowboys jersey.

[Bobby Bones]

How funny.

[Raymundo]

Yeah, it might have been right after the game or it Was the same day as the game. And then I'm driving. I go to Chick Fil A in the same area I'm in the drive thru. Pulls up SUV, country singer. It's freaking Jordan Davis. Within 10 minutes, I see two famous people in Nashville, baby.

[Bobby Bones]

So we got kicks. Brooks at Walmart, Post Malone at the mall, and Jordan Davis at Chick Fil A. And people are like, are the country stars just around Nashville? Well, that's actually where they are at normal places. If you come to town and you go to like one of these bars that's named after an artist, there's going to be nobody famous there.

[Raymundo]

Well, except for last night.

[Eddie]

What was last night?

[Raymundo]

Jelly Roll was at Jelly Roll.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Why, why was he.

[Raymundo]

He was performing. He was on stage. It was. It was him. It was the guy that's the right hand man for one of the Paul brothers on the podcast. And then Nick Sarasana, he's like a streamer guy. But they were all in town and Jelly was performing on stage at his own bar.

[Bobby Bones]

That's interesting. I guess if there's a performance occasionally that will happen.

[Eddie]

Sometimes the artist.

[Bobby Bones]

Unannounced performance. Yeah. If they do, they have like an obligation to go a few times because they don't actually own the bars. They lease their name. It's like a steakhouse. Rarely are the steakhouses actually owned by the people you pay. Like, if I was gonna do Eddie Bar and Grill, I would give you $200,000 a year and I get to have your likeness. And you're gonna agree to come three times a year.

[Eddie]

Deal.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, that's mostly what it is. You don't actually buy the bar. So when it's a company that does.

[Eddie]

When this Morgan Wallen body cam video came out and he calls Eric Church.

[Bobby Bones]

To, like, get him off.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah. So what's the point of calling Eric Church? He's not the owner. Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Eric Church may. I don't know. I would say most of those bars are owned by the same company downtown. So there could be like one off or so that I'm not familiar with where the artist does own the bar. But those buildings, like there's a building where the Jon Bon Jovi JBJ's is. They're selling it right now. The building. $130 million. Dang.

[Eddie]

I mean, it's so old.

[Bobby Bones]

So it's like, what artist is going to jump in and buy a building? Because now you're in the real estate business and then you got to put somebody in the building. And this is Your bar. So, yeah, most of the bars are owned by a company and they lease the names of the artist. I don't know. What did you ask?

[Eddie]

Not just why he called Eric Church.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah.

[Eddie]

He goes, eric's on the phone. Eric Church. Talk to him.

[Bobby Bones]

And Eric was like, hey, can you at least do this in an area, like, not in the public? Because they were doing it on Broadway. Yeah, yeah. It was funny watching the cops go in that back room and watch the surveillance footage.

[Eddie]

Oh, that was awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Because I guess they have to have proof before they take him away. And they did.

[Bobby Bones]

And they did.

[Eddie]

And then him in the back of the car going like, hey, that's me. A T. Rex. T. Rat man.

[Amy]

Because Thomas Rhett's a great guy. He would never get arrested.

[Eddie]

That's accurate.

[Bobby Bones]

Raymundo found a song in our system, and I remember the song. And I'll say this. This is back 10 years ago, and I have not always been someone who doesn't curse. I stopped cursing because I didn't want to think in cursing. I don't want to write jokes cursing in my head. I don't want to use it as a crutch. I actually like cursing. It's fun, it's funny. As long as you don't overdo it. I'm not anti cursing. I just don't do it. I haven't said a curse word in probably seven or eight years.

[Eddie]

Amazing.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, no.

[Eddie]

It's amazing because, like, if I try to do that, I would drop a can in my foot and be like, you wouldn't, though.

[Bobby Bones]

It'd be a discipline you could get. And also, it's like a discipline tester for me. I need those occasionally. But I did this song called Mother Effing Brentwood when we first moved here.

[Eddie]

I remember this one.

[Bobby Bones]

And we took the voice changer that made my voice a little deeper, and Ray said he found it. I don't know where this song has been. Is it bleeped?

[Raymundo]

Yeah, it's bleeped. Do you want. I have two versions. You want the M and F bleeped or just the F?

[Bobby Bones]

Just the F. Perfect. Let me hear a little bit of. I haven't heard this song in forever. Go ahead. There we go. Yeah. Captain Caucasian here. Deeper. Yo, yo, yo.

[Lunchbox]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm talking about Brentwood, where you at? I'm from Brentwood where the homie stay real. I'm from Brentwood where you may just get killed I'm from Brentwood where my salmon stays grilled I'm from Brentwood keep my pele green or chilled oh, just a hook. Wait, we have any of the. We have any of the verse.

[Raymundo]

There was never a verse. It was just that.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, there's verse.

[Eddie]

I bet you.

[Raymundo]

I think you would rap live.

[Eddie]

You would do it live.

[Bobby Bones]

No, we had a whole. We had a whole version of it.

[Eddie]

No, no, I know, but I think the reason he has this clip is because you would use that to go live. To do it live.

[Bobby Bones]

I would never perform this song live in a million years. Not one time did I ever do it live.

[Eddie]

Oh, maybe.

[Bobby Bones]

Where would I do that song live? I would never get on stage and curse. Yeah, but I had a whole. It's got a mother Brentwood where the homie stay real I'm from mother Brentwood where you may just get killed I'm from Brentwood where my salmon stays grilled I'm from Brentwood, keep my Pellegrino chill I remember it was all. It was a joke song because Brentwood was, like, so posh. And it was like, Dolly lives down the street. What are you saying? I'm coming. And can I get. It's just all.

[Amy]

Is the killed part because your neighbor like.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it was just to be funny because you can't get killed in Brentwood because it's so posh. You can't.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I think there was a line too. Like, there's a girl. I see. It's Carrie. Mother.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, Carrie Mother.

[Eddie]

Carrie Underwood.

[Bobby Bones]

Effing Underwood. Looking at me. I'm from mother. Brentwood.

[Eddie]

I remember that line. I remember when we wrote it, we're just like. That's a good line right there.

[Amy]

Where my salmon stays grilled.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you look a little deeper, Ray, and see if you can find the whole song anywhere? Yeah, I know it's on a soundcloud somewhere, which is where I parked it a long time ago and then never found it.

[Eddie]

God, dude, that's a. That's a long hit.

[Amy]

You know what I was looking for the other day? Did you see Jane Goodall died?

[Bobby Bones]

The monkey womanya.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

So Monkey woman.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, that's what. I know her from. The chimps.

[Amy]

Chimpanzees, yes. So in elementary school, I had to do this project where I was. I guess I chose to be Jane Goodall. And I lived out on my front porch. I turned my front porch into, like, a tent and I had a pillow and I slept up there. I was with my chimps and I filmed this whole thing, like, on vhs. And I know it's somewhere because it was My school project. And I was, like, method acting like I was her. Like, I made myself Jane. Like. And I think my parents were, like, over it. And I was like, I'm sleeping out here. I have to sleep with my chimpanzees. And I'm trying to find it on my V. I have, like, all the stacks of VHS tapes that I got from my mom's attic after she passed away. And I'm trying to find me as Jane Goodall. And I'm like, dang. Too bad I didn't know exactly where this was because it been very timely. Like, rip, Jane.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I'm looking for MF Brentwood. Can't find it anymore.

[Amy]

While you're looking, I'll keep talking about how I was Jake and all, but just made me think of, like, how.

[Bobby Bones]

I found my SoundCloud.

[Amy]

Like, now kids just have to, like, you know, film themselves on their phone and make something real quick. Like, we had to set up a tripod camera and a VHS tape, and we had to film ourselves.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you want to hear?

[Amy]

I had no idea.

[Bobby Bones]

The Raging idiots do Sam Hunt as Mickey and Goofy.

[Eddie]

Get out.

[Amy]

Huh?

[Eddie]

What song is it? Do you know?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. I don't have the SoundCloud app. Dang it. I guess I can download the app, man.

[Eddie]

There's. That's crazy. I don't remember that at all.

[Bobby Bones]

Dude. It's like a whole different life when we moved here. Yes. That to me, I was just. I was mentally ill. What do you mean? The first three years.

[Amy]

Why do you say that? I thought it was.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't come up.

[Eddie]

He was in the zone.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't come up for air.

[Eddie]

He was in the zone.

[Bobby Bones]

You guys are living lives. And I was like, oh, my God, we're gonna get no every single day. Well.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah. I mean, there was that fear, but, yeah, we were like.

[Eddie]

Well, like, we followed.

[Amy]

Making videos.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Amy]

I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 32.

[Eddie]

32.

[Amy]

We all went over to Bobby's, and my sister was there, and we made a 32 video for my 32nd birthday. So that was. Oh, my gosh. That was 12 years ago.

[Eddie]

And that was a hit. And then you came out and you're like, let's do two. And I was so mad. I'm like, amy, we're not doing two.

[Amy]

Yeah, but we did it.

[Eddie]

We did it anyway. I was so mad at you.

[Amy]

We were over at Bobby's with, like, a port, a training port, but not a porter potty, but a. A Potty.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Potty.

[Bobby Bones]

What are those called?

[Amy]

A potty trainer.

[Eddie]

And you had Bobby in a diaper.

[Amy]

I don't know about you, but I'm feeling too.

[Bobby Bones]

I can play a premiere. What? Raging idiots. Yeah, I can't get the app, so we're trying to take your time. Let's make you a goofy.

[Amy]

Oh, I think you're ready.

[Bobby Bones]

Can we play this on the podcast?

[Eddie]

I mean, it's not really Sam Hunt, but it's parody.

[Bobby Bones]

But it's not the parody, it's the music.

[Eddie]

You want to do it live?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know if we can, so we better not. We don't want the whole podcast to get shut down. Okay.

[Eddie]

Dang. I have to listen to that though. But.

[Amy]

Hey, the Bobby Bone show.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's go around the room. I'll go first. They released, because they had to make it public, the finances of Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman. And inside of those finances. And I can read this from e. Nicole Kidman's divorce filings are shedding light on her finances with Keith Urban. One day after it was confirmed that the couple had split after 19 years of marriage, Nicole's lawyers prepared a child support worksheet that was submitted as part of the custody agreement listing both Nicole and Keith's monthly income at $100,000 each per docs obtained by E. News. And then I saw a lot of comments like a hundred thousand dollars a month. That's all they made. There's an agreement by them to just share that amount. And there, there are also so many because they make way more than that.

[Eddie]

I was gonna say I'll take a.

[Bobby Bones]

Hundred thousand dollars a month, but also, oh, they make way more than that. You would take that. You're taking rv, but they make that. That's significantly more than that. One, what are the odds it's the same exact amount from both people? Two, they don't make a per week or per month salary. They have jobs where they're just popping around doing different jobs. They don't get salaries. She may get a splash of money for this movie or this project. Keith gets, probably signs a deal with a concert promoter, gets money that comes in from publishing. Random. They're all their money is random. There is no $100,000 that they can determine is the set amount of money every month because there is not a set amount of money every month. Now another thing that they can do is their businesses that get all the money can actually pay them. That happens a lot. So let's say Keith Urban has an llc. We'll just call it Keith Urban Inc. He may have it set to where that thing's getting paid, but he's getting $100,000 put into his account a month. So the odds of them getting this, making the same amount of money, first of all, every month at a hundred thousand dollars each one in a million. And that's just not true. They make different amounts of money. They do different kinds of jobs. And also there's not a set amount they make. So they have, with their lawyers, somewhat camouflaged their money because it was agreed upon mutually, that's what they would share. You had to go through this a bit, right?

[Amy]

Discovery. Yeah, but I think they call it.

[Bobby Bones]

Their discovery was where you agree that discovery only goes so far.

[Amy]

Yeah, I guess you can. I didn't need to manipulate it like that, but yeah, I suppose you could. Especially if you're like two super famous people.

[Eddie]

Why is this public knowledge? Like why does the. The finances have to be public knowledge?

[Bobby Bones]

Divorce. That's public. It's just.

[Eddie]

You can just look it up filed.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, right.

[Eddie]

It's just funny that people are so interested in that.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you kidding? We stop at a wreck.

[Eddie]

No, I just look for a second.

[Bobby Bones]

But I mean, again, that's the second you're Looking right, this is that to help.

[Eddie]

To help.

[Bobby Bones]

And also we care about what people make. We care about that. The houses of famous people. We care about when they get divorced. We care about when they cheat. We care about anything. That's. That's all. We see it as entertainment, because we don't see it as real people.

[Eddie]

Right. But they are real people, and it's got to be tough for their whole life to be exposed like that.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a trade off. But yes, I agree. Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah, Eddie. Because why divorce records are generally public? Well, the freedom of information and open courts, transparency and government accountability. I mean, if you end up going to trial, that's when it gets real dirty because everything's out.

[Bobby Bones]

Nicole in 2024 took in $31 million. So that's cool. That's. No, no, no. That's way more than a hundred thousand dollars a month.

[Eddie]

It's a lot.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So the odds of them both making the same amount, the odds of it coming in the same every month, even if they did make the same amount, people were shocked that that's all they made, but that's not all they make. And there are different ways that you can, again, manipulate this. And they're probably did. I don't know. Did you say that Keith sold like certain amount of money for every year he didn't use cocaine? No, because he had a rehab thing. Yeah, I mean, he talked about he's owed money. By who, Nicole?

[Eddie]

So every time he didn't use every year.

[Bobby Bones]

The story this morning was. And I don't know, I spent no time on it. It's also weird because I know him.

[Eddie]

I know it's weird.

[Bobby Bones]

And it's also why I haven't been talking about it a whole lot, because it just feels. It feels gross because it's a real person to me. But the story was there was a deal in there. And Mike, would you mind looking this up? Yeah, it was a drug clause. 600,000 for a year. So he's owed like $11 million because he hasn't used cocaine since. Since that issue back in maybe 2017 or something.

[Eddie]

And this is a real agreement. Like, went to a lawyer and.

[Bobby Bones]

Would you mind reading that, Mike? Yeah, it says he's earned $600,000 for every year. So it's at a whopping $11 million.

[Amy]

Wait, what?

[Bobby Bones]

You went to rehab in 2006.

[Eddie]

I'm telling my wife that.

[Amy]

How do you.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, everything can be put in a prenuptial agreement or even a postnuptial agreement. You can put weight in it. If she gains this much weight.

[Amy]

That's so crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Or if he gains this. But people get married for different reasons.

[Amy]

I know.

[Bobby Bones]

It's just hard to be protected from different things.

[Amy]

Like, are you. It just seems like if you already. Like he already has money. So like, why is he. How does getting paid for not doing. It's like, if you want. If he wants to do it, he's gonna do it. Is the 600 a year really keeping him from doing it or is it like. I don't know, that just seems so, like something you would do with your kids. Like, hey, you get a reward if you. Yeah, if you don't. But he's. He's a high functioning. Like he takes care of himself.

[Bobby Bones]

It's mostly lawyers too. And it's. Let's say they. I don't know what kind of agreement they had, but let's say they had a pernicious agreement, which I'm sure they did because they were both millionaires when they got married. Let's say that happened and he had gone through this. And maybe he gets less in the agreement if he doesn't stay clean. And in order to meet that, because him not staying clean if he weren't would affect the marriage and there would be a divorce and it would cost her money if she's making more than him. Like it's all math in the end. But let's say he did stay clean, which didn't affect the marriage in that way, which was why they. So therefore we're going to pay him positive instead of the negative. That would be getting divorced because of it and her having to pay him out more, man.

[Eddie]

So legal.

[Bobby Bones]

And it's very legal. Lionel Richie talked about that in the show I did with him. He was like my first wife. We got married because, well, we love each other, wanted to get married, he said. But then he went to his pastor and I don't want to kill the whole story because it'll be on the Bobby cast probably coming up next week. He was like. Went to the pastor and was like, hey, can you like help me? Because I'm, you know, I just got a divorce. I don't know what to do. And the pastor was like, no one's ever gotten divorced at this church. And he's like, dang. And so he said, I got married with one pastor and I have to get divorced with 17 lawyers. And then to get married again we have to put all these clauses. And it's not just like. He goes. And I get it. Because now you Got to protect it because there's more to protect, man. It's like, if you have a hut, you don't need 17 armed people protecting it, but if you have a massive castle, you have to protect it. So it was interesting. He talks about that.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

I also don't know how much of this Keith and Nicole stuff is true. I know the big rumor happening now is because they keep playing Keith singing the Fighter with Maggie Ball, who is playing guitar for him a little bit. And Keith is known to sing songs like that with his. He brings people on stage. I'm sure there's video of him singing with Natalie Stovall, who's doing most of that tour with him in that way. And they're like a song he wrote for Nicole. He's singing with another woman, and we think he's cheating with her. And that's a song where he just brings a girl on. On with him to sing because there's a female park as Carrie sings that in the original. And Keith ad libs stuff all the time. Now, I don't know that it's true or not true, because I have not asked.

[Eddie]

I mean, I even saw an article where they were asking her dad.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

And he's like, what? All I know is that she played for him. Like, they're professional. I don't know anything else. But the headline was, you know, musician's father speaks out about her relationship with Keith Urban. Like, okay, Headline will get you every time.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know that it's true or not true. I don't know. I don't want to know.

[Eddie]

Right? Yeah. Because if you knew, that'd be a lot for you.

[Bobby Bones]

Sometimes I know stuff. I don't know. I don't know. I have a feeling, but I don't know. Yeah. Brandon, do you know? No.

[Eddie]

He looks scared of us.

[Bobby Bones]

Because a lot of times Brandon knows. Because Brandon has written so many songs with so many people and, like, has all these relationships.

[Eddie]

Well, this is what the bottom of that of that article said, too. And it's just like, oh, everyone Nashville knows. And I'm like, what are you talking about?

[Bobby Bones]

This one not true. I knew that they weren't together.

[Eddie]

Like, the word around Nashville is like, that's what this article said at the bottom of, like, the one where they were talking to her dad. Like, I don't know anything.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. I don't know that I knew they weren't together. One of my best friends lives next.

[Eddie]

Door to them to Keith and Nicole.

[Bobby Bones]

And they would see Nicole Walking around the neighborhood a bunch and not recently.

[Eddie]

Well, that'd be crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

But she would just go for walks and she would cover up head to toe. That's how they would know it was her.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Because her skin is so porcelain and white. And I'm sure she burns easy.

[Eddie]

Oh, okay. I was thinking.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah. Like, no, I think, oh, no.

[Bobby Bones]

They go to the mall. I've seen Nicole at the freaking mall walking around crazy.

[Amy]

I've seen her hiking in public. You know, it's her, but she's very covered up because she doesn't want to see her skin to see the sun.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I've run into Nicole at them all tough. You have to. Yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

Them together and I mean, where they live is so private. She doesn't need to cover up.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

It's like.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it's a gated neighborhood.

[Eddie]

Yeah. I saw Jack White outside his house tell you that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, he told us that.

[Eddie]

That was cool.

[Bobby Bones]

That's somebody who's also very white.

[Eddie]

Yes, very.

[Bobby Bones]

I've never seen Jack White in person.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I just saw him in his yard.

[Bobby Bones]

We've asked him to play the million dollar show a couple times. There's always a reason he can't. Either he's gone or he. Maybe he just doesn't want to. I don't know. We never press anybody when they say no. It's always a scheduling conflict. That's just a universal thing to say.

[Eddie]

Sure.

[Bobby Bones]

And it could be the scheduling conflict. But yeah, Jack White's awesome. That would be cool.

[Eddie]

I bet. Like, it's got to be cool for him to like just turn the TV on and then is watching some game. And they're all.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah, like every game.

[Eddie]

You watch their chance.

[Bobby Bones]

The nation army is everywhere.

[Eddie]

You watch a soccer game, Europe, and they're like, that's amazing.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's good. Okay. Around the room. That's mine. That I. That $100,000 a month story is accurate. The story is accurate. But people are blown away that that's all the money they make. And I'm telling you that's not the case. That isn't agreed upon. This is what we're going to submit based on. They could be flubbing the system through. They only get paid out of their own companies a salary of a hundred thousand a month. That works too. Okay, what do you have?

[Amy]

Okay, so do you ever use the word lollygagging a little bit sports wise?

[Bobby Bones]

Like our head coach used to be like, stop lollygagging. And you know, get. Get out of the huddle. That kind of stuff.

[Amy]

Okay, well, I just, I was yesterday years old when I learned it's lolly gagging. Because for my entire life, I've said lolly gaggling.

[Eddie]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh. I've never heard of lolly gaggling. And if you said that to us, we'd roast.

[Amy]

You mean? Well, I, I, I've been saying it, and I'm like, stop lollygaggling.

[Bobby Bones]

I, there's no chance you would say that here. No, we'd catch that.

[Amy]

Y' all would catch it. Okay, well, so it came up the other day, and then so I said, I don't know if my son said something, and it got into my head, and I'm like, oh, yeah, I'm using that word. And then yesterday, my boyfriend's son was taking a lot of time on something, and I said, stop lollygaggling around. And they all looked at me and they were like, it's lollygagging. And I didn't believe them. And so I just looked it up and looked up, like, the origin, everything. And I was going to teach y' all in case, because, see, Eddie's from Texas. Lunchbox from Texas. Sometimes we say things differently, and I didn't know if down there it was lollygaggling, or maybe in Arkansas lollygaggling. But I'm the only one.

[Eddie]

You're the only one in Arkansas.

[Bobby Bones]

Snuffelophagus.

[Amy]

Yeah, that's another one that. Yeah, I thought so. Anyway, that's just my. I thought I would share with you all as a lesson. If you're saying lollygaggling, it's completely wrong, and it's lolly gagging, and it's from the mid 19th century.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Could you be a lollygagger?

[Amy]

Yeah. Okay, you're a lollygagger.

[Eddie]

Like I tell my son.

[Bobby Bones]

What?

[Eddie]

You're a lollygagger.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, do say that. Yes, in that tense.

[Eddie]

Yeah. And every time I say I'm like.

[Amy]

That doesn't sound right, but that's right. I look, lol is to drop or rest idly. Lol. Lol. Lol. Like I would say to your son, you're a lolly gaggler. It's too much like now. So, anyway, that's your lesson for the day, especially.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, you're a gagger.

[Eddie]

That's different.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't like that one?

[Eddie]

That's different.

[Amy]

No, no, no, no, no, no. But that's our word of the day.

[Bobby Bones]

NSyncs Lance, Joey, JC and Chris are exploring an arena tour. So that's NSYNC wanting to go back out, but no Justin. And so the question is, and this is according to tmz, the four have been discussing an arena tour after Justin Timberlake declined to participate in earlier offers from Live Nation at aeg. What can they sell arenas without Justin Timberlake.

[Amy]

For nostalgia.

[Bobby Bones]

It's only nostalgia purposes.

[Eddie]

What's an arena number? 30, 000.

[Bobby Bones]

No, 10. 10 to 12.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I think can be bigger, but the only reason people are gonna go is nostalgia, Right?

[Amy]

So. But I'm thinking of the age group of the nostalgia. So people are probably, like, in their 40s. They're looking for something to do. Be fun, to get your girlfriends together and go back. You can. Yeah, yeah, they can do it.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm gonna go. No, because tickets are too expensive.

[Amy]

Oh, how much are they charging?

[Bobby Bones]

No, they're just generally, tickets are too expensive.

[Amy]

Oh, generally. Okay. I was about to say, I was.

[Bobby Bones]

Thinking because Justin sings so many leads on those Songs, Justin and J.C. that a lot of those songs aren't even being sang by the same person.

[Eddie]

Oh, dang. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So my point to this is Justin Timberlake. Stop. You're not so cool to not tour within sync.

[Eddie]

But he's not even really singing, right? Because, like, Lyme disease.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

He. He was just having the crowd sing.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Amy]

No, but I'm saying, look, he said shows, lollygagging.

[Eddie]

He's trying his best.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't know people. And I'm not saying he's doing this. So I'd like to say that first and foremost, I am never going to illness watch. I don't know what you have going on. You could be. You could have the worst Lyme disease ever, or no Lyme disease at all.

[Eddie]

I got you.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't realize so many people were using Lyme disease as an excuse to get out of stuff. I'm not saying he is, but that where he's like, he was getting crushed online for not singing at his shows, and then out comes the excuse of Lyme disease. And the excuse can be a real reason, too. Like, I wasn't able to run a 4, 5, 40 because I had a broken leg. That's my excuse. That's real. Yeah. So he said he had Lyme disease. And then all the stories started to be, look at all these other people who have Lyme disease, and they're using it to get out of stuff because you really. It's so different for everybody that you can just say it. Don't know that he's doing that.

[Eddie]

That's A bad one, man. Lyme disease is a bad one. To just make it does. You know, you can make up a broken leg. You can't prove it. Just wear a cast.

[Bobby Bones]

No, you can prove a broken leg. I would say it's the opposite of what you're saying.

[Eddie]

But the Lyme disease, like, that's really like, hurts people, like. Yes, but so, so faking it, that's a one way ticket to.

[Bobby Bones]

To hell. You think making a broken leg. You don't go to hell for a broken leg.

[Eddie]

Now you see people with neck braces.

[Amy]

Like, oh, have you seen the people with Lyme dis that get. Put the bees in their back and get stung?

[Eddie]

Is it for therapy or whatever?

[Bobby Bones]

The reason I would say about the Lyme disease, it's so. It affects everybody so differently. Some people can have Lyme disease and be moderately or little affected. In some, it runs their whole life.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

And they can't quite figure out how to even diagnose the symptoms because the symptoms change. And so because it is such a very. There's such a variation of how people are affected by it, it's easier to claim you have it.

[Amy]

Yeah. This was a lot of autoimmune stuff or even long Covid.

[Eddie]

Sure.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

You know.

[Eddie]

And is it all from a tick or is there other ways to get Lyme disease?

[Bobby Bones]

Great question. That. I don't. I don't have extensive Lyme disease knowledge. I have one family member that's had it and one friend that's had it, and they were so different. One friend that had it wasn't even affected, like occasionally. Sometimes he would get like a cold or some. Some like nothing. And the other one debilitating.

[Amy]

Either of them do the bee therapy?

[Bobby Bones]

No. Tell me about that.

[Amy]

Well, I've just seen videos of people where they have bees sting their. Their back, like along their vertebrae, like it's almost like a line. And they, I don't know, they have a partner or a friend or spouse, whatever, and they take the bee and put the stinger in the back and stings them. And then I don't know how many they have to do at once. But the, the venom. Is that what comes out of a bee? It's supposed to be healing.

[Bobby Bones]

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection transmitted to humans through the bite of infected black legged deer ticks. So it doesn't say multiple. I thought there'd be other ways to get it.

[Eddie]

So all these people got bit by.

[Bobby Bones]

Ticks, the bacteria that cause Lyme disease, which is. I'm not gonna try it are spread by black legged ticks. Wow. I would have sure thought there would have been more ways to get Lyme disease.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Because it's a lot of people getting it. I don't think they're in the woods. Yeah.

[Eddie]

I wonder if like, if a tick bites an animal and then the animal bites you.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think so. I don't think the bacteria transfers like that.

[Amy]

Apparently, BVT Bee venom therapy is controversial.

[Eddie]

It is. I was. And I was going to tell you why I have a problem with it. I have a problem with it because of what the bee therapy.

[Bobby Bones]

Go ahead.

[Amy]

Bvt.

[Eddie]

Bbt.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah, it sounds very controversial. Wait, I thought it was like nutty. I thought that was just known that that was a nutty thing to do. I never thought like, oh, this is.

[Eddie]

No, this is a problem. Because bees only have one sting in them and they die.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so you're worried about killing the bees.

[Eddie]

I mean, that is so rude to take the bee's life just because you want to cure your.

[Amy]

But Eddie, we do things like that all the time with things we're superior.

[Bobby Bones]

To but we shouldn't and. Superior. That's a rude word to use.

[Eddie]

We already eat their honey.

[Bobby Bones]

Are we actually superior?

[Amy]

Well, Eddie, do you eat meat to survive?

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Ah, you think you're superior.

[Amy]

So you kill a cow. Just. And it's not even to save your life because there's alternatives.

[Eddie]

Well, that's to live.

[Amy]

But you don't have to eat meat to live.

[Bobby Bones]

Some would say.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I would disagree with that.

[Bobby Bones]

You can get Lyme disease without it says, remember? Because I looked up, can you get Lyme disease without a tick bite? And it says, yes, you can get Lyme disease without remembering a tick bite because the ticks that transmit the disease are very small and can easily be missed. So it really didn't answer the question I asked.

[Eddie]

I think the first thing you said is, I mean, but the only way you can get it.

[Bobby Bones]

Anyway, a lot of people predicted. No, not predicted. A lot of people speculated that he was just lazy at his shows and use it as an excuse. I don't know that's the case. I don't. I would bet it's not the case if I were betting. But there was a whole list of celebrities that all of a sudden had Lyme disease. Do you have the list? Oh, no. I was saying that you can't get it without a tick bite. Yeah, it's to be on your body for at least 24 hours to transmit the bacteria.

[Eddie]

The Tick.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. It's like a bomb in a movie. If you pull it before the bomb goes off.

[Amy]

Yeah. You can't get it to person. To person. Contact. Mosquitoes, fleas, flies, food, water. You cannot pet. To person. You cannot. Unless you have a pet tick.

[Eddie]

So it's accurate. Every time I've heard someone say they have Lyme disease, I'm always just like, dang, they were in the woods.

[Bobby Bones]

Celebs with Lyme disease. I looked it up. Justin Bieber, Avril Lavigne, Shania Twain, Amy Schumer, Ben Stiller, Bella Hadid, Alec Baldwin, Kelly Osborne, Kelly Flanagan, Debbie Gibson, Justin Timberlake, Yolanda Hadid, Fletcher Riley, Daryl Hall, Ramona Singh, Kris Kristofferson. He's dead. It's a lot of celebrities. Are they all camping?

[Amy]

Okay, why?

[Bobby Bones]

Right?

[Eddie]

Are they all going on hikes?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm from Arkansas. We had ticks everywhere. And I can understand anybody where I'm from getting Lyme disease.

[Eddie]

But if you play golf, dude, you go looking for your ball, you can get a tick.

[Amy]

Oh, here we go. Bobby, I have an answer.

[Bobby Bones]

Maybe I'm probably so wrong about all this, but I'm not committed to being right on this.

[Amy]

But I do have an answer.

[Bobby Bones]

I just don't believe anything anybody says. Go ahead.

[Amy]

Okay. The reason why celebrities may appear to have higher Lyme disease is because increased awareness. They often have access to health care professionals and maybe more aware of the symptoms and risks and they get actually diagnosed, whereas other people might be walking around with it and they don't have the resources to diagnose it because it is so difficult.

[Bobby Bones]

I understand that that's how people know more about it, but you don't get it. Just Lyme disease is different because you have to get it from an animal.

[Amy]

I understand. I'm saying more people probably have it than we realize in gen pop, but.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not talking about gen pop. I'm talking about celebrities. That was the. I was reading the list of celebrities.

[Amy]

I know when I'm saying Ben Stiller.

[Bobby Bones]

And Avril Lavigne have Lyme disease.

[Amy]

It says here, too, it could be lifestyle factors because celebrities may spend more time outdoors.

[Bobby Bones]

Now we're talking.

[Eddie]

Celebrities spend more time outdoors.

[Amy]

Celebrities often travel to different parts of the world.

[Bobby Bones]

Like the difference in something like Lyme disease, which is given to you by a tick biting you, and autism, which you're born with. I think that is the answer for autism. Why are there more people that are autistic? Because we understand more about it now. We understand the spectrum is now Even opened up more doctors know more about it, they can diagnose it. Healthcare. So that's why there's more people with autism than there is Lyme disease. Lyme disease you get at 16 years old. At 31 years old. You don't get autism at 31 years old. Although I think I have adults.

[Amy]

You have adults?

[Eddie]

You do?

[Bobby Bones]

A little bit. A little bit. It's just a test I took that told me that. So I think that's the answer for something like autism. And they're like, so many people have autism. No, no, no. We understand more about it. We've actually opened up the spectrum a lot more. There's way more education going into it. There are kids that 20 years ago would never have been diagnosed with autism. They just would have been weird.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

But now that there's a greater understanding, that's why the numbers are bigger. And Tylenol. Duh.

[Eddie]

Causing it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, all of it. Maybe I took Tylenol a bunch. Maybe like age 16. The Lyme disease thing is a little fishy to me. Not that people have it or don't have it, but all of a sudden celebrities get it and they use it as an excuse to get out of stuff.

[Eddie]

They travel a lot.

[Amy]

Yeah. There's lots of reasons why it could be here. I don't know what's true, what's not true.

[Eddie]

Hey, but you know, you know what? Nothing's true until it is.

[Bobby Bones]

That's it. Don't believe anything. So if I'm being honest, we're AI right now. We're not even real. We figured out a way to go in, push a button and just do this.

[Amy]

So I feel like we would know more.

[Eddie]

So where are we?

[Amy]

We would know more if we were AI.

[Bobby Bones]

We know so much that we can't reveal all that we know because people would know that we are AI. So we have to still be dumb a bit. Like we are.

[Amy]

Oh, so we just. Our AI is programmed to be like. Hold on, let me Google that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Amy]

Lollygaggling.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Eddie]

I've been saying that all wrong.

[Bobby Bones]

That is exactly right.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie. Yeah.

[Eddie]

So bad news for people that still have AOL dial up service. After 30 years, they've finally said no more. They said that there were only 200,000, around 200,000 users in the world that still use AOL dial up.

[Bobby Bones]

I saw they went bankrupt, like belly up. They said in the article.

[Eddie]

Yeah. They said that the service like, like you can still have your AOL account. So Lunchbox, I don't know if you still have your AOL account.

[Bobby Bones]

Like that's still good.

[Eddie]

Like none of that will change. But if you have the AOL dial up service where you connect the modem.

[Bobby Bones]

Who has dial up though? Even if it's not.

[Eddie]

That's what I'm saying. They said it was.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm so surprised. It's 200,000.

[Eddie]

200,000 people. And they're just out of luck because they shut it down. It's over that dude.

[Bobby Bones]

That was a good run though. It was a good run that changed the world. AOL Instant messenger was a game changer for.

[Eddie]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

That.

[Eddie]

I think Instant messenger might still be around.

[Raymundo]

Oh, I'm sure.

[Bobby Bones]

But. But that was a game changer in general with being able to talk to people. That was the first messaging service I ever had. And my name was Radio Bobby. It was awesome.

[Eddie]

You dialed up.

[Bobby Bones]

No, Scotty dialed up some. But oddly my name was Radio Bobby before I was ever on the radio. That's.

[Eddie]

That's crazy. That's foreshadowing.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I knew what I was going to do.

[Eddie]

That's crazy that you knew you were going to do. Like what if like you didn't do that? What have you just.

[Bobby Bones]

I changed screen names.

[Eddie]

Well yeah, good point.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Radio Bobby wouldn't be such a big.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean I wasn't like. I was like tattooed on me or anything.

[Eddie]

Crazy though. It didn't work out. But yeah, that's. That sounded dumb.

[Amy]

Change the handle.

[Eddie]

But dude, remember those CDs? And they would give them out and you'd be like, cool. I have 200 free hours of dial up service.

[Bobby Bones]

I think I'm more surprised that 200000 people still have dial up than I am. 200000 people still had AOL.

[Amy]

Do you say in the whole world?

[Eddie]

Yeah, the customers period, kid. All over the world that had dial up.

[Bobby Bones]

They still provide services outside of America.

[Eddie]

Well, maybe it's America Online. Right? So maybe. I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

That's why I'm.

[Eddie]

But you can say that. But you can say that though because like if the Chiefs win the super bowl, they are the world champions. Even though they played just Americans.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, I know but AOL probably was international. But in my head I think of America Online. So it's only America.

[Eddie]

Maybe it was that what AOL stands for America Online.

[Amy]

I never knew that. No, I just getting my A. I said to say that.

[Bobby Bones]

We blame everything we say.

[Eddie]

That's too.

[Bobby Bones]

I'd like to say. I think I've said a bunch of stupid stuff this hour.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm just like, speculating a bunch of crap. Yeah, that's my AI doing that.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but see, that's stupid. Why would my AI want to be dyslexic and have discalculated?

[Bobby Bones]

To show you have flaws. And an AI shouldn't have flaws.

[Amy]

Yeah, just. You're one of the people.

[Eddie]

The AI is acting like I'm. I'm flawed. I have flaws even though I'm. It's perfect.

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

It's so perfect at being real. It's presenting flaws.

[Eddie]

That's like your dumb. Your AI that goes. Let me think. She already knows.

[Amy]

No, that's. She's stalling.

[Eddie]

She's not stalling. It's immediate.

[Amy]

Oh, well, then it's so annoying.

[Bobby Bones]

Speech patterns that they have learned.

[Eddie]

Yeah, she says, like, she doesn't need.

[Amy]

A. Oh, well, that's an interesting question.

[Bobby Bones]

Lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

This one's gonna hurt. There was a woman, she was breastfeeding her son right before bedtime. And she gets done, she looks down and she's bleeding. The son had accidentally bit her nipple. It was hanging by a thread. She rushed to the er.

[Amy]

How old is her kid and how.

[Bobby Bones]

Many teeth, full teeth does the kid have?

[Lunchbox]

It doesn't say. It doesn't give a teeth count.

[Eddie]

But how old was the kid?

[Lunchbox]

She said she thought she was gonna get stitches, but nope, they just put a bandage on it and said, don't worry, it'll grow back.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you have an idea how old the kid was?

[Amy]

No, it doesn't say this AI was like. Act like you don't know.

[Eddie]

Good morning.

[Lunchbox]

No, but it has a picture of him. He looks young. He looks young.

[Amy]

15 months. He was 15.

[Bobby Bones]

You found it. You found his story and then you found the answer.

[Amy]

That's part of the AI. That's part of our thing. So mom's 15 month old son bites her nipple off while breastfeeding.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie, what are you laughing at?

[Eddie]

Oh, just this whole thing. The fact that AI Amy found it.

[Bobby Bones]

Found the story and the. It's literally the headline.

[Lunchbox]

It's really not. It's not in the headline. It says, mom goes ER after her son bit off half her nipple while breastfeeding. It doesn't say in the headline.

[Bobby Bones]

What's your headline?

[Lunchbox]

Thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

People.com. mom's 15 month old son.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, sorry, sorry. I'm on the New York Post, so my. My headline does not have it.

[Eddie]

15 month. Hold on, let me do the math. A year and.

[Bobby Bones]

A year and. Three months.

[Amy]

Three months.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you go a year and a half yet? Dude, you need to turn your AI setting to be a little smarter. Just a little, like, frequency.

[Eddie]

Just a little, little. I wish.

[Amy]

You don't need to be that relatable.

[Eddie]

Good morning.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, what do you. What do you have going on this weekend?

[Amy]

State, baby.

[Eddie]

Let's go.

[Amy]

We're going to State. I'm telling y', all, I've not been a sports mom, whereas the kid's been really great at something. So it's. It's totally different. I totally get it now.

[Eddie]

Do you know what you're doing, though? Like. Like, whenever you're like, hey, don't run. Cause the day before.

[Amy]

No, I don't say the coach. No, the coach says it and then also, like, got it. Yeah, his dad's saying stuff. My boyfriend who ran track in college, like, very. Like, he's. And is very dialed in. Like, his kids, athletics. Like, he's getting tips from other people, not just me. And I'm following. I just reiterate. I reiterate what I hear from the other people. And I try to just encourage. And I want to work on the mental. I'm just pumping him up. Like, I'm so excited. It's 9am tomorrow, Clarksville.

[Bobby Bones]

That's fun. It's exciting. It is, yeah.

[Eddie]

Games. We have basketball games all day. It's like the start of the fall season, I guess. We have basketball games all day Saturday because all three of my boys are playing.

[Bobby Bones]

Is it. Hey, listen, just. I know you love your kids.

[Eddie]

I love them.

[Bobby Bones]

Can't get enough. Are you annoyed sometimes you can't watch college football?

[Amy]

Well, technology, they have it on their phone.

[Eddie]

Technology's helped a lot with that.

[Amy]

That all the dads, so.

[Eddie]

So, yeah, we all kind of have our phones up. So me and a couple other dads have, like, lined up, like, all right, you get the Alabama game, I'll get this game, and you get Ole Miss game. And we put them all next to.

[Bobby Bones]

Each other, but are you a little annoyed you can't, like, dedicate yourself to a single game?

[Eddie]

Yes. Yeah, but I can watch the night games. Like, we're usually home by, like, 6:00'. Clock. Everything's over. So I can watch all the night games, but. Yeah, man. And then Sundays now, like, they're like, oh, we got practice on Sundays at noon. I'm like, the Cowboys play at noon, and we're gonna have to figure something out. Usually the. My wife takes. Takes the kids to practice.

[Bobby Bones]

Really? Yeah, because you want to watch the.

[Eddie]

Cowboys, which they're playing at noon. And then, I mean, the whole Day revolves around the Cowboys. Like if they play at noon, we got to go to church at 8 in the morning.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, you manipulate your schedule based on that one? It's all modification of Cowboys.

[Eddie]

If the Cowboys play at the at three, we can go to late church. It's no big deal. But if they play at noon, we got to be out of church by 10 o' clock because I got to be home. We gotta.

[Bobby Bones]

Gotta warm up.

[Eddie]

Yes. Gotta get my work done. I gotta get food going.

[Bobby Bones]

All that lunchbox. What are you doing?

[Lunchbox]

My kids got soccer games tomorrow. That's all I know about.

[Amy]

See, this is what you have to look forward to, Bobby. Dudes games, running, soccer, basketball.

[Bobby Bones]

I'll be 100. Who cares?

[Amy]

You're not gonna be a hundred.

[Eddie]

I've seen some of those days.

[Amy]

You're gonna be like 55. Who cares?

[Bobby Bones]

Arkansas's not playing this weekend. Why?

[Amy]

They got a buy.

[Bobby Bones]

They have a. Yes. Not really a buy. A buy would be in a tournament.

[Eddie]

It's a bye week, Right? Bye week.

[Amy]

That's what they called it when Notre Dame was off.

[Bobby Bones]

Idle.

[Eddie]

Idle.

[Bobby Bones]

They are idle. Yeah. Officially. Yeah, sure, they have a bye week, but a buy mostly is like a free entrance into the next round. If it's a buy. Like a tournament buy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But yeah, like.

[Eddie]

Like the brewers would be on a buy.

[Bobby Bones]

They got a buy.

[Eddie]

They got to buy.

[Bobby Bones]

They didn't have to play. But they play Saturday. Well, the Cubs play Saturday tomorrow and Arkansas doesn't play. And I'm really got to figure out if I'm going to be able to get to Chicago to go to a game o.

[Amy]

A Cubs game. Obviously. I mean, that post, after I asked.

[Eddie]

That, I was like, post season's tough though, right? Like to get tickets for.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Eddie]

I mean, like good tickets.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Eddie]

Like where you got a little insider.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Eddie]

Connection.

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

But you can get any ticket. Million Dollar man style.

[Amy]

What does that mean?

[Bobby Bones]

Everybody's got a price. Oh, that's what the million dollar man you say. Ted Dibiase. Everybody's got a price. You can buy any ticket on a second hand, second secondary site, StubHub, whatever, for any price. But also, I have pretty good connections there that I think I could get. I could do okay.

[Eddie]

Have you ever sung the seventh inning stretch?

[Bobby Bones]

No, I have not.

[Eddie]

That's a goal.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, we went to the game last time and I was like, hey, we're going up. It's me and Eddie and George Burge.

[Eddie]

It's just us three and Morgan.

[Bobby Bones]

That's right. Morgan won. Yep. I said, we're going up. And a friend said, are you singing? I said, no. For some reason, they, they.

[Eddie]

They didn't ask.

[Bobby Bones]

They didn't ask me to say. And I was a little perplexed because we'd always been trying to find, like, the right time for me to go up and do that kind of stuff. I've thrown the first pitch out before, and it was like, that's weird to say. Yeah. And then we get there and it's. It's ladies night.

[Amy]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

And all. It was all women doing everything.

[Eddie]

Yeah. It made sense.

[Bobby Bones]

It was throwing out the first pitch. It was singing seventh inning stretch. We were like, oh, yeah. I'm surprised they even let me in. National anthem. It was all ladies.

[Eddie]

All of it.

[Bobby Bones]

The whole thing was ladies night tonight. Yeah. So Arkansas's not playing.

[Eddie]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

We're having a, like a, like a game night. Ish thing at the house tonight. As long as my wife feels good. Maybe people coming over for that. I don't know what we're gonna play, but that's what's up. Anything else? Everybody feel good?

[Eddie]

Feel great, man.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, you guys have a good weekend. We'll see you guys on Monday. Bye, everybody.
