1. [02:41] Listener Braydon’s “Worst Date of All-Time”

Introduction:

• Braydon joins the studio as the winner of "Worst Date" contest, revealing he builds swimming pools for a living and is a local from Sumner County.

The Winning Date Story

Braydon recounts a wild first date from Facebook dating:

• Setup: Recently recovered from a broken back and invited by a woman to dinner at her house, she offers to pick him up.
• Red Flags Start Early: She arrives with her two kids in the car, and "speed demons" down the highway to her place. ("Both kids in the car, man..." - Braydon, 07:22)
• Unprepared Home: Her house is messy and unprepared for guests; Braydon is left awkwardly drinking beer and watching Paw Patrol with her kids.
• Flavorless Dinner: The promised meal is bland spaghetti, possibly days old.
• Shocking Twist: Her phone keeps buzzing; she reveals she's not single but "going through a divorce" and ex-husband is suddenly coming over to get his stuff.
• Escape: Braydon hides in the bathroom with a 12-pack, texting his brother for rescue, ultimately jumps out the bathroom window to escape, running down a dark road for pickup.

"End up jumping out of a bathroom window and just start high-tailing it down the road." (Braydon, 09:36)

Notable Banter

• Bobby: “That’s a pretty bad date.” (11:00)
• Braydon: “Some of that’s on you, though.”
• Braydon explains post-injury dating, clarifying he literally broke his back (not just a figure of speech).
• Amy probes why a “country boy” would get picked up for a first date, Braydon replies: “Not with that one.” (11:58)

Braydon’s Life Update

• Now happily engaged to Cassidy, wearing a ring as a symbol of engagement.
• Shares the weediness of another “Facebook dating gone wrong” story—Maserati-driving date might have been an escort, friend suggests she might be a man, flees to a bar, randomly meets Cassidy (now fiancée), who he’d previously messaged online. (“I was just texting the Cassidy on Facebook dating, and I sent her a picture of my hey, dudes…” – Braydon, 14:41)

“Just my life is crazy and funny.” (Braydon, 17:41)

Segment Highlights

• The team debates if using acronyms like "GTFO" in front of kids is OK.

• Amy admits using euphemisms (“freakity, freak, freak, freak" or "fudgesicle") to avoid cursing.
• Bobby: “If it’s a bad word you don’t let your kid say, it’s a curse.” (22:45)

Notable Moment

• Bobby demonstrates the generational divide in language by referencing the difference in using and understanding “bad words,” both as words and acronyms.

[Bobby Bones]

The Bobby Bones Show Brady, good to see you man.

[Braden]

Good to see you, Bobby. Good to see everybody. Morning, studio.

[Bobby Bones]

Morning. You supposed to be working now or no?

[Braden]

Yeah, supposed to be working. So do they know what's up?

[Bobby Bones]

They know you're in for a reason. Yeah. What kind of job you have?

[Braden]

Build swimming pools.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, man. We got that winter storm hit.

[Braden]

Oh, dude, it was nuts. It was nuts. I was just talking to Scuba Steve. I was like, the celebrity people I've been around. I built Matt Ramsey's pool.

[Bobby Bones]

And don't you sound like a. I feel cool.

[Braden]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

You can say that.

[Braden]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Braden]

I can go. Yeah. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I won't get you in trouble.

[Braden]

No, no, no. That was with another company. So we're good.

[Bobby Bones]

All right.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

He's moved on.

[Braden]

Yeah, I moved on.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, we got that winter storm just demolished.

[Braden]

Oh, man. It was nuts.

[Bobby Bones]

And we don't get any homeowner insurance on it because it was freeze.

[Braden]

I gotcha.

[Bobby Bones]

It doesn't cover in freeze. It covers for other things, but not freeze. So we got screwed on that. So our pool's empty right now, I would imagine. You know what's weird about pools? I never had one growing up. I always envied people who had pools. Cause they felt rich. I didn't realize until I got a pool that you just take your water hose and put it in it. And that's where I always thought it was, like magical pool water that somehow was brought by magical pool people.

[Braden]

No.

[Eddie]

So what?

[Braden]

Unless you can autofill.

[Eddie]

But what makes it blue like that?

[Bobby Bones]

Like chemicals, Right?

[Amy]

The design of the. Also the lining or the tile or the plaster.

[Braden]

You know, the color of it just kind of makes it pop.

[Bobby Bones]

I saw a red one on the Internet. Like, the tile was red. To me, it looked awesome, but it looked like somebody had been murdered in the pool. Yeah, because it was red. Because all the water was red. It's weird because the water.

[Amy]

I thought you were about to tell us since your pool is empty and you're, you know, might have to redo some. You're thinking about doing it red?

[Bobby Bones]

No, no. My wife wouldn't allow that. I think it would be super cool.

[Amy]

But if you painted a hog on the bottom.

[Bobby Bones]

I tried to do that in the pickleball.

[Eddie]

Dang. In tile. That'd be cool. Hog.

[Bobby Bones]

I just don't swim.

[Braden]

I'm not. Like I said, I built a lot of pools, but it's very. I rarely get in pools. It's got to be like 110 for me to get in because that water is so cold.

[Bobby Bones]

And if it's 110. I'm going to be in the house.

[Braden]

Yeah, yeah, that too.

[Bobby Bones]

I just. I don't really like the beach. Don't really like the lake. Not really a pool guy. I'll go out maybe twice a year if my family's family, which is my family, but like, her side, if they come into town and they all want to go sit around by the pool, I'll go out and hang out for a little bit. I just. Not. You gotta, like, shower after the pool. That's weird because you got all the chemicals on you.

[Braden]

No.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah, the pool is a shower.

[Braden]

Exactly. Just get you a bar of soap, you're chilling in the pool. Sometimes creek.

[Eddie]

Who cares?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, Creek's different, though. So how long you been doing that?

[Braden]

Fifteen years, roughly.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you know, like, people's gate codes and stuff? Like, if you go.

[Braden]

Yeah, I know a couple people.

[Bobby Bones]

Nice.

[Amy]

Don't say them.

[Braden]

Yeah, absolutely not.

[Bobby Bones]

He's like, Matt Ramsey's is 4 10. You grew up here?

[Braden]

Yeah, grew up Sumner County. Graduated Beach High School. So I'm a local.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, we did a contest on one of our stations, the one here in Nashville. And the contest was, I think, like, Worst Valentine's Day or Worst Date? Worst first date.

[Braden]

Worst date. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And you won.

[Braden]

I don't know how I won. It's a pretty bad day, but I'm surprised I won. I've never won anything in my life. Bobby never won anything. Well, that's like a football game or something.

[Bobby Bones]

You mean like one you played in?

[Braden]

Like, no contest, Nothing. Just crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

So here's what he won. Then I'll have him tell us his story. But he won. Holston House Hotel. You know what that is?

[Braden]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

You've already been there.

[Braden]

I've never been there, but I've seen it.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh. Dinner at Mockingbird. Which is good. I've been there. And then tickets to Stapleton and Lainey Wilson at Nissan Stadium.

[Lunchbox]

So what?

[Braden]

So you've won that first concert ever. Well.

[Bobby Bones]

You never been to a concert?

[Braden]

No, man. Never been to a concert besides, like a NASCAR race. But that's like a concert. Yeah, well, maybe.

[Amy]

Maybe has a musician performed?

[Braden]

Yeah, like. Like Steel Magnolias performed. I've seen them. But, like, not going to, like, I got the concert ticket. You know what I mean?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh. Oh, that's great then.

[Amy]

Wow. This is.

[Braden]

That's a memorable moment.

[Amy]

This is great.

[Braden]

This is a big day for me.

[Bobby Bones]

So would you mind tell. Just telling them your story.

[Braden]

So, yeah, it was about three years ago, I found the text messages from my little brother. It was July 16th, and found this chick off Facebook dating. I'm like, you know what? I just got off from breaking my back, so it was like, just trying to get back in the game. So she's like, yeah, I'll pick you up, we'll go back to my house. I'll make dinner. I'm like, you know what?

[Bobby Bones]

She said she'd pick you up and take you back to her house. Yeah, I was right off the jump.

[Braden]

Right off the jump to make you dinner. Yeah.

[Amy]

Do cook for you.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, man. I was like, sounds awesome.

[Braden]

That's what I thought. Well. Well, she shows up. I knew she had kids. I have kids too. So she was like, had her. Didn't have her kids. I was like, okay. Shows up, both kids are in the car.

[Bobby Bones]

I was like, she picked you up with both kids in the car?

[Braden]

Both kids in the car, man. So I lived in Portland at the time, like, right underneath Kentucky. And then so from Portland all the way to, like, Bethpage Westmoreland Speed demon. Doing like 55, 70 miles an hour. Like, I'm like, freaking out. I got, like, some beer in the car. I'm like, I'm thinking we're gonna have a good time, but I'm like, I'm ready to go home now and then. So, like, I said, speed demon. I'm like, your kids are in the car. Just freaking me out. Get back to her house. I'm like, she's a pretty girl. Don't get me wrong. She's a pretty girl. House destroyed. Like, trash overflow and trash on the back.

[Bobby Bones]

It wasn't prepared for company.

[Braden]

No. Was not prepared for company at all. And then she was like, oh, I'll make you dinner. Just relax. I'm, like, chugging beers. I'm like, I just gotta feel better, you know? And then, like, we. I forget what she made, like, spaghetti or something, but it was like, what

[Bobby Bones]

did you do while she was making the dinner and her kids were there?

[Braden]

I'm watching paw Patrol with homeboy. Like, I was like, yeah. I'm like, oh, what's up, little dude? Like, I don't know you, but with

[Eddie]

beer in your hand?

[Braden]

Yeah. Like, yeah, Bush light, dude. I'm just chilling. I was like, just nervous. I was like, I couldn't just leave. I'm. And don't know where I'm at, you know? And then suffer gets done and we're eating. It's like, I gotta take away. It's like the driest and flavorless spaghetti you've ever had. It's like, well, did you make this like a week ago, dude? It was like, what the heck, man? And then so the night goes on. It's about like 8:30. She's like, okay, I'm gonna try to put the kids get sleep. Her phone's like, blowing up. I'm like, well, that's a little weird. Come to find out she's married. I was like, what? You're like, I thought you were like, your profile said single. She's like, oh, I'm going through a divorce. I'm like, that's a little like, if you're going through a divorce, why are you still trying to seek other people? Like, is this his house? I'm like, now that she says that, I'm like, that's. That belongs to a guy. That's a dude. That's a dude. And then so, like, she come to find out. She was like, oh, my God, he's coming over to get some of his stuff. I'm like, he's coming here? Like, what? So that's when I'm like, you know what? Screw it. So I'm sitting in a bathroom with the 12 pack of bush light, just sitting on a toilet, just hoping he does not have to use this single bathroom in his house, because if he walks in the bathroom, I'm screwed. So I'm just sitting there, I'm texting my brother. I'm like, dude, you got to come get me. Like, this chick is off the rails, like, full of red flags since I got here. Ended up jumping out of a bathroom window and just start high telling it down the road.

[Bobby Bones]

No way.

[Braden]

Yeah, dude. Yeah. Just started running down the road. I sent him a pen. I was like, hey, I'm an shirt. Just pick me up, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, tell your brother what kind of shirt you're wearing.

[Braden]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, shout out. Dawson Potts, man. He's a real one. He's my little brother. I love that guy.

[Eddie]

I have questions.

[Bobby Bones]

Why didn't you drive yourself?

[Braden]

That's what I was thinking. I was like, why didn't I just drive? But I was like, you know what? I was like, ah, I'm gonna be drinking. You know, I'm not a big drinking and driving kind of guy. I was like, you know what? Gotta see it through. I'll just let her pick me. Just. I'm along for the ride, but it was not a good ride.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you ever communicate with her after that night?

[Braden]

No. No. Blocked. As soon as I. As soon as I jumped out, hit the ground and started booking it down. A random back road is instantly blocked and never. Never to hear from her again.

[Bobby Bones]

She never reaching on Facebook?

[Braden]

No, no. Blocked her on everything. Yeah, instantly. Dude.

[Lunchbox]

You ever see a car drive up with the dude in it?

[Braden]

Oh, no, no, it was. It was like a black. It was a dark road. It's like probably like 11 o' clock at night. I'd say probably 9, 10, hitting. It was late, so I was like. It was. It was wild, man. It was nuts.

[Bobby Bones]

Were you able to laugh about it while it happened?

[Braden]

Oh, yeah. We were laughing as soon as I got in the car. Like, in the car with my brother. I'm like, dude. He's like, why did you not drive yourself? I'm like, I don't know. I wished I did. I wouldn't even stayed that long, you know, I'd have left as soon as I seen the house, you know.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a pretty bad day.

[Braden]

It was. It was.

[Bobby Bones]

Some of that's on you, though.

[Braden]

Yeah, well, you know, but after being stuck in a house for a year because you break your back, you're like, you know what? Let's.

[Bobby Bones]

You literally broke your back.

[Braden]

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I thought you were doing that. You've been breaking your back.

[Braden]

No, no, I literally broke. Yeah, I literally broke my lower left back at work.

[Amy]

That's why I thought he was allowing her to drive because I didn't know if he was fully recovered.

[Braden]

No, I mean, yeah, I was like. I was like back to work. Probably like four months into going, being back to work. But yeah, broke that sucker.

[Bobby Bones]

I thought it was just the term.

[Jo Winterstein]

Oh, no, I was thinking about.

[Braden]

No, yeah, no, I literally broke my back, so.

[Amy]

Pain medication. Like, I was trying to rack my brain as to why in the world, for a first date, you're letting a girl come pick you up.

[Braden]

Oh, yeah, no.

[Amy]

Cause you seem like, I don't want to stereotype, but you're like a country boy.

[Braden]

Oh, yeah, Absolutely.

[Amy]

And I feel like a small town. Like, I feel like. I don't know, I would expect you would be like, no way, you're not picking me up. I'm coming to pick you up and I'm gonna open your door for you and we're gonna go out to eat.

[Braden]

Nah, not with that one.

[Bobby Bones]

Imagine you get to. She's picking you up and the kids are in the car. That, to me, is probably the first.

[Braden]

I think that was the first red flag.

[Bobby Bones]

Reconsider this.

[Braden]

Yeah.

[Amy]

No, no, no. The her saying, I'm gonna come pick you up and drive you to my house.

[Bobby Bones]

For dinner. It doesn't like she might murder you though, too.

[Braden]

Yeah, well, you know.

[Bobby Bones]

How's it going now?

[Braden]

Oh, it's going great. I got a fiance over there. Been together two years.

[Amy]

Wait, but you have a wedding ring on.

[Braden]

Yeah, well, we're engaged. Yeah, we're engaged.

[Eddie]

She proposed to you.

[Amy]

You're the guy.

[Braden]

Well. Well, you know, it's just. Hey, it's just symbolism of like, hey, my man's taken, she's taken kind of thing, so. Yeah, it's.

[Lunchbox]

Never heard of that.

[Braden]

Hey, man.

[Lunchbox]

Right. Teacher own man. Bathroom window.

[Bobby Bones]

How'd you meet your fiance?

[Braden]

That says. That's a. That's a story too. It's a story too.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you want to share it?

[Braden]

Absolutely.

[Eddie]

All right, let's go.

[Braden]

I knew this was coming. So, another Facebook dating incident. So me, another chick off Facebook dating, like, had a penthouse downtown. I'm like, awesome. This is cool. Driving a Maserati. I'm like, I'm in it, dude. Well, like, we get back to her apartment and then she's like, hey, this dude's gonna come over. He's gonna bring me some money. I'm like, that's a little weird. And then, so I'm having a sit.

[Bobby Bones]

Why is it always dudes coming over while you're.

[Braden]

I know, that's what I'm like, what is going on with me? So I'm having to sit on this balcony or back deck on apartment of Broadway or whatever. I'm like, all right. And then she's like, whatever, he's not giving me my money. He's this. What? I was like, okay, it's a little weird, all right. We go to, like, the. Some bar downtown, and these guys are like, dude, I'm pretty sure that's a man. I was like, what? They're like, dude, she's got an Adam's apple. That's a dude. I was like, no. Like, she looked good, but didn't think she was a dude. And then so I was like, just got way paranoid and just left. I was like, screw it, I'm leaving. So I left. And then I ended up going to another bar in Hermitage where one of my close girlfriends worked. And she was the bartender. She was like, hey, you want to go up to Last Call? I was like, where's Last Call? She's like, it's in Gallatin. I was like, all right. So we go up to Last Call, and I see Cassidy, and she's like this beautiful, beautiful, blonde, five foot, half inch little chick just sitting in the corner surrounded by Dudes, I'm like, I know this girl. She's like, quit being a baby. Go talk to her. Sure enough, go up to her. I was like, is your name Cassidy? And she's like, yeah. Why? I was like, I was just texting the Cassidy on Facebook dating, and I sent her a picture of my hey, dudes, because I got hey, dudes that day, and I randomly just sent them to her. I was like, hey, what's up? Because it was like a hey, hey, hey, like, what's up? Like, kind of talk conversation, but probably would have never met on Facebook dating, but randomly ran into her last call,

[Bobby Bones]

and that's where you knew her from, was from messaging her.

[Braden]

Yeah, Facebook dating.

[Amy]

And then you saw her in real life just like that.

[Eddie]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Were you wearing the hey, dudes?

[Braden]

No, no, I think I was wearing cowboy boots or something. Probably my redneck get up, so.

[Lunchbox]

And did you tell her you just been on a date with a dude, but now you're.

[Braden]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you think it was a dude?

[Braden]

I really do. I mean, she, like, she was 10 out of 10, but, I mean, I don't know if it was the whole transgender thing or what, but maybe just

[Amy]

had had some work done, maybe had

[Braden]

some Adam Apples worked out.

[Bobby Bones]

How did you not notice that? I was thinking she was a prostitute whenever.

[Lunchbox]

That's what I thought.

[Braden]

Well, that's what I was saying. I thought she was like a full escort kind of thing. Once the shoes. Like, this guy's gonna come over and he's gonna pay for the. Pay for the night. I'm like, you're driving a Maserati, girl. You ain't got no money. Like, what? Yeah, it was. It was wild. It was wild.

[Bobby Bones]

Those are two great stories.

[Braden]

Yeah, I'm. We're full of them, man.

[Lunchbox]

Hey, Facebook dating sounds like the place to be. Yeah. How long you been engaged?

[Braden]

About. It'll be two years in March, I think.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You plan on getting married eventually.

[Braden]

Well, we've been together two years, we've been engaged.

[Bobby Bones]

That's different.

[Braden]

Like, six, seven months, maybe, like summertime.

[Rob Gronkowski]

You're good?

[Braden]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We're fresh. Yeah, we're good. All right.

[Bobby Bones]

Congratulations.

[Braden]

Yeah, I'm excited, man. I've never been to a concert, and it's crazy because we're going to Marilyn Manson concert, too, like, at the Pinnacle, so that'll be cool. And then I get to go to Chris Stapleton. So technically, Marilyn will be my first one, but, like, my first free concert was like, I'm A country guy. She's like heavy metal, rock. I'm like. I'm through and through. A country boy. So it's. It's gonna be an experience for sure.

[Bobby Bones]

You're not a Marilyn Manson fan?

[Braden]

I've never really listened to him. I mean, I've seen him. I think I know the Sweet Dream song. That's about it. That's about all I know.

[Bobby Bones]

You probably know. Well, I don't know what you know, but, like, beautiful people. The beautiful people.

[Eddie]

No, never heard that one.

[Braden]

I just know the Sweet Dreams one because I was in, like, the McDonald's movie, I think, when I was a kid.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that. A McDonald's movie?

[Eddie]

Never seen that.

[Braden]

Yeah, it was like the Hamburglar or something as a movie.

[Bobby Bones]

They put Marilyn MANSON In a McDonald's movie? All this.

[Braden]

I forget what it was. It was like some McDonald's commercial or. I can't. I just remember McDonald's character and Marilyn Manson's sweet dream playing. I don't know if it was a dream or what, but I don't know. You gotta get back to work today probably. But I think I'm gonna go get me a drink. Cause my nerves are, like, shot.

[Bobby Bones]

Were you nervous coming up here?

[Braden]

Oh, dude, yeah. I've been listening to y' all since 2013, dude, since y' all came to Nashville. Like 16 years old, going to high school. And then, like, I don't know how many people signed up for this competition, but my little country butt one. That's awesome.

[Amy]

Well, I don't really, honestly think, based on your story, thousands of people could have signed up, and your story would probably still win.

[Braden]

That's what I'm talking about. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. I don't know. There was limited entries that got you here.

[Amy]

Yeah, it was the story.

[Bobby Bones]

Save up that second story for a different contest. I'm not sure what that contest.

[Braden]

I know. That's what I was telling one of the employees, the customer, that she's like, you should totally go to Zany's and do, like, amateur night. I was like, that would be awesome.

[Amy]

But it's like, not. It's just like sharing your real life story.

[Braden]

Exactly. I don't even think I'm that funny. But just my. My life is crazy and funny.

[Bobby Bones]

So you may get a drink in the morning.

[Eddie]

I mean, it's like, go downtown and.

[Braden]

No, not now. I would go back to, like, Jonathan's or something. I'll go close to the house.

[Amy]

I feel like. I don't know that they're serving yet.

[Braden]

No, no, they do, like, an espresso martini or something, you know?

[Bobby Bones]

How'd you feel about your experience up here? Come to the parking garage.

[Braden]

Yeah, it was. It was cool. It was. It was very exposed. Like, I got to. Walked in, I seen Eddie and Mike D walk, and I was like, oh, my God. That's crazy, man. It's a cool experience.

[Bobby Bones]

What about the room?

[Braden]

I love it. It's like. It's. It's just like I imagined, you know? I'm like. I know. I was. We were watching it yesterday. I'm like, that's this. And, like, Eddie's in lunchbox over here. Amy's over here. Mike D's back here.

[Bobby Bones]

That's cool.

[Braden]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I appreciate you listening. Thank you very much.

[Braden]

Absolutely.

[Bobby Bones]

Congratulations on your win. Nice to meet your fiance and. Yeah, I'm sure they'll get you all this stuff. We don't have your stuff.

[Braden]

Oh, yeah, yeah. No, I already got the emails.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, good, because we don't have that. Yeah, but you feel sad, you walk out. All right, there he is.

[Lunchbox]

Wait, how did he get up here? What part of the winning was he got to come meet us?

[Braden]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

The winner was not meet us. Come tell your story.

[Eddie]

And then.

[Braden]

Oh, but, hey, this is enough for me, dude. This is all right.

[Lunchbox]

No concert tickets.

[Rob Gronkowski]

Take him back.

[Bobby Bones]

He'll take your concert. All right, there he is. Braden. Good appearance, man. That was awesome. There is the great Braden, everybody.

[Braden]

Yes.

[Eddie]

The Bobby Bone Show.

[Bobby Bones]

You say bad words in front of your kids?

[Eddie]

I have.

[Amy]

I don't.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you try to not?

[Amy]

I try to not. I have. And never at them. Never. The word is not saying being said to them, but it's just being said for emphasis.

[Bobby Bones]

And you don't.

[Eddie]

We do not say bad words.

[Bobby Bones]

You've slept, though, and your kid heard you once?

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was at a work function, and he was with me, and he kind of heard me talking to some of the other guys.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah. You know, guy talk.

[Eddie]

You know, guy talk. I said locker room talk. No, no, no. It wasn't locker room talk. No, no, no. We don't do that.

[Bobby Bones]

So Eddie's question is about sub. Like, can you say letters?

[Eddie]

Acronyms?

[Amy]

What? What? Like wtf, Right?

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, which one do you say?

[Eddie]

Gtfo.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, Use it. And how you use it.

[Eddie]

Hey, guys, we're running late. Let's go. Let's GTFO in the car now.

[Amy]

Well, then why don't you just say, I can't.

[Eddie]

I can't. I can't say what it is.

[Amy]

Oh, well, so do they Know. Do they know what I'm saying?

[Bobby Bones]

No clue. Oh, they don't know. Yes, they do.

[Eddie]

Yes they do.

[Bobby Bones]

They're not as stupid as you think.

[Eddie]

They don't. I'm my oldest one does. And he laughs when we say it.

[Bobby Bones]

By the way, for those that don't know, GTFO means get the out of here.

[Amy]

Can we say freak?

[Braden]

Sure.

[Bobby Bones]

But I think they got the point.

[Jo Winterstein]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Sometimes I say freakity, freak. Freak, freak.

[Eddie]

Huh.

[Amy]

And that does the trick. I mean, just, you know, around my kid. Like sometimes if I'm like, oh, fudgesicle.

[Eddie]

You say that?

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah, I do.

[Bobby Bones]

That's not bad.

[Eddie]

But there's no way they take her seriously.

[Amy]

No, I'm not saying it to them. Like, say I'm like cooking something. Or I like I draw like I'll. Or something happens that's like, oh, fudge. You know, but sometimes, like, if I like. Speaking of, we need to go somewhere and I've been on it, like trying to get them out the door and then something will happen or the kids start fighting, they start doing like, I will be like, we need to blank

[Bobby Bones]

and go, oh, you say it.

[Amy]

Yes. I'm not saying I do it all the time. I'm saying I have said it.

[Eddie]

I will say that if I was, was to ever do that, they would stop in their tracks and be like, yes, sir. Like, that would 100% mean, like, dad is 100% serious.

[Amy]

Yeah, that's the point.

[Bobby Bones]

I think it's crazy. You don't think your kids know what the F means in gtfo?

[Eddie]

They don't react to it. They're just like, oh, car. Yeah, I got it. Yeah, they don't react to my. I mean, I'll hear my Sonny Snickers. He's like, that's funny.

[Bobby Bones]

The 18 year old.

[Eddie]

Yeah, he's old. He knows.

[Bobby Bones]

But the middle two are how old?

[Eddie]

They're 12, 11. They know. No, no chance. Because they would be like, haha, that's funny. Why don't you just say the word dad?

[Amy]

Well, yeah, but the point of the acronyms is you don't say the word. Like how.

[Eddie]

Right.

[Amy]

You don't want to. But GTFO is a saying.

[Bobby Bones]

I think 12 year olds know everything.

[Lunchbox]

Isn't a 12 year old in middle school?

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, you know, sixth grade.

[Braden]

Oh my God.

[Amy]

He definitely knows.

[Eddie]

He doesn't react to it.

[Bobby Bones]

If he, if you find out he does know, do you react? Do you react and not say it anymore?

[Eddie]

O. Yeah, I'll probably have to kill it from my Vocabulary and tell my wife, like, we can't say that anymore.

[Bobby Bones]

GTFO is funny.

[Eddie]

Yeah. It's even funnier when you know what it means and they don't.

[Bobby Bones]

But they do.

[Lunchbox]

But they.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm telling you, youngest probably doesn't.

[Eddie]

Well, another little one. For sure.

[Bobby Bones]

A 12 year old knows what that means. Am I crazy?

[Amy]

No, you're not crazy.

[Eddie]

What about wtf? I think they would know that one. Of course we don't use that one.

[Bobby Bones]

What's the difference? They have to mean the same thing.

[Eddie]

Because I think they would know that one.

[Amy]

All right, what about wth?

[Eddie]

Oh, I'll just say that one.

[Bobby Bones]

Is H a bad word in your house?

[Eddie]

I mean, what about. It's not preferred.

[Amy]

But what about the wall that fish hit?

[Eddie]

Damn.

[Bobby Bones]

Is that a bad one in your house? Nah, you can say that.

[Eddie]

Yeah, you can say that.

[Bobby Bones]

So that means they can say it.

[Eddie]

No, they say dang. They don't say it in front of me, but I can sometimes you so.

[Amy]

So you do cuss in front of your kids.

[Bobby Bones]

So it's a bad word if you're not allowing them to say something and you get to say it. That's a curse word.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Is that a bad word?

[Amy]

Maybe it's how you say it.

[Eddie]

The wall that the fish hit. That's a bad word. Yeah.

[Amy]

Because you can be like, I'll be damn. I feel like that's. That's, that's. My dad would always say that.

[Eddie]

What was so dumb when I was growing up is my dad would curse in Spanish, but he would never say like the F word or the S word. But in Spanish. I mean, there are millions of bad words he would say. It was like, that's different. Why? Because we don't know what that word means.

[Amy]

Also, Spanish is one of the. I think it's inflection wise. I don't know. I'm just pulling this from the dome, but it's like the happiest language in the world.

[Eddie]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you know there was a song that was a number one song and I forget the country. If I were to guess, probably France or something. And the guy was doing gibberish that sounded like English. They thought he was singing English, but he was just making sounds. What English sounded like end up being a number one song.

[Eddie]

No way. And they thought he was just singing English.

[Bobby Bones]

Became a big hit. I bet you I could find that if we're just going off the dome on stuff.

[Amy]

I definitely was going off the dome on that. So I could be wrong, but it's something about the inflection of the words. It's like if you just hear, even if you don't understand it, it's like a happy language.

[Eddie]

And then, like, in Mexico, they sing Spanish. It's like.

[Bobby Bones]

Let me ask my assistant here. Okay. Hey, I have a question for you. There was a song probably in the black and white days, and a guy in Europe somewhere was singing a song that sounded like it was English, but there were real no English words. And it became a number one hit. Does that ring a bell? Oh, yeah, that definitely rings a bell. You're probably thinking of Adriano Celentano's. It's this wild Italian track from 1972 that sounds like English, but it's just. Just gibberish, meant to mimic the sound. It became a big hit and it's as catchy as it is bizarre. So he just used what he thought English sounded like to make it a song. Wow. Is it classic rock? Yeah, it is. Hey, Ray, you want to feed us a game here? Yep. What is it? I'm going to play you a famous TV quote. All you have to do is finish the quote with the missing word. Give me an example. Are you doing? How you doing?

[Braden]

Good.

[Bobby Bones]

How many you got? Seven. Okay. All right. Write it down.

[Eddie]

You're playing?

[Rob Gronkowski]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Why not? Get it. Cut it

[Eddie]

[Lunchbox]

In for the win.

[Bobby Bones]

[Eddie]

Hello?

[Bobby Bones]

Hmm.

[Eddie]

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I can't. You're hearing it. You just don't know it. Amy keeps pointing her ear like she's not hearing something.

[Eddie]

I wasn't hearing it.

[Bobby Bones]

Go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

You didn't hear it. Um,

[Amanda Knox]

What if mind control is real?

[Lunchbox]

If you could control the behavior of anybody around you, what kind of life would you have?

[Amanda Knox]

Can you hypnotically persuade someone to buy a.

[Braden]

When you look at your car, you're

[Bobby Bones]

going to become overwhelmed with such good feelings.

[Amanda Knox]

Can you hypnotize someone into sleeping with you?

[Rob Gronkowski]

I gave her some suggestions to be sexually aroused.

[Amanda Knox]

Can you get someone to join your cult?

[Amy]

NLP was used on me to access my subconscious.

[Amanda Knox]

Nlp, AKA Neuro linguistic programming, is a blend of hypnosis, linguistics, and psychology. Fans say it's like finally getting a user manual for your brain.

[Eddie]

It's about engineering consciousness.

[Amanda Knox]

Mind Games is the story of nlp, its crazy cast of disciples, and the fake doctor who invented it at a new age commune and sold it to guys in suits. He stood trial for murder and got acquitted. The biggest mind game of all, nlp, might actually work.

The Bobby Bone Show.

[Bobby Bones]

How do your neighbors moved out next door?

[Eddie]

Yeah, it was bizarre, man. And we're like, they're next door neighbors. We talk, I mean, at least twice a week. Just, how's everything going? Sometimes text like, hey, we're out of town. Could you take our trash out? And then out of nowhere, for sale sign and no cars in the driveway,

[Bobby Bones]

and they were all the way out

[Eddie]

of the house, gone. And I'm thinking, like, that's a little weird. Like, like, I'm sure everything's fine, but I just expected like, hey, we're moving, selling our house. And I just feel like if you're moving out, it'd be nice to just tell your neighbors, like, it was really good knowing you, we're moving.

[Bobby Bones]

I guess if you had a relationship with them. That does seem weird, huh?

[Amy]

Yeah, I mean, I say hi to certain neighbors, but I don't know if, like, I had to move in a

[Bobby Bones]

hurry but in a hurry. Yeah. Were they running?

[Eddie]

It wasn't. No, it wasn't like that. It was like over the weekend, I think my wife said, I thought I saw a moving truck, like pull up to the. Because we live in a cul de sac. Thought I saw a moving truck pull up to the cul de sac. Never saw them load anything. And then we had basketball games all day, but by Sunday they're gone.

[Bobby Bones]

Weird that you guys had a even small relationship.

[Eddie]

Tiny relationship. Because like, it's just a neighbor. But it was strange to me that I. I thought that just. It'd be nice to just tell even like your four neighbors that live in your area, like, hey, we're moving. We're.

[Bobby Bones]

I wouldn't go tell people we were moving. Like when we moved the last time. I didn't go tell anybody, but I didn't know my neighbors.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah, well, you make it a point to not know your neighbors.

[Amy]

Well, no, like Eddie had had conversations.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, Eddie loves talking to people.

[Eddie]

I love waving at him when I drive by, like. Or it's like these neighbors, like they had two kids and when they had their first kid, I'm like, oh my gosh, he's gotten so big. You know, like, stuff like that. We had that kind of relationship.

[Rob Gronkowski]

Weird.

[Bobby Bones]

They didn't tell you they were moving.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it's a one sided relationship.

[Amy]

What if they're like, oh, here comes Eddie again.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, here we go. I'm talking to this dude. Oh no.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie says a guy tried to scam him fixing his garage.

[Eddie]

Man, you think scammers are like gonna scam you through text DMs? Nuh, not this guy. So my garage door broke and I knew exactly what was wrong with the springs had popped. And so I got online, looked for a garage repairman, and I found a number.

[Bobby Bones]

A what?

[Eddie]

Garage repairman. A what? Repairman, Repairman, handyman.

[Bobby Bones]

Who says repairman?

[Eddie]

Am I right? I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Repairman, right?

[Amy]

Repair man.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Okay, repairman. So I call the number and a lady answers and I tell her what's wrong? And she said, okay, no problem. We'll have someone go by in the next couple hours. And she told me it's gonna be about 180 for that. That's how much it costs to replace springs.

[Lunchbox]

Cool.

[Eddie]

The guy comes, looks at it, he's like, yep, yep, that's definitely the springs. That's gonna be 500 bucks. No, I talked to the lady on the phone and she said it was 180 now. She did? That's Weird. Let me give me a second. Let me go back to the truck. He comes back, he's like, yeah, all right. It's gonna be 180.

[Braden]

Oh, yeah.

[Eddie]

I'm like, scammer.

[Bobby Bones]

He's trying to make quick 320 off.

[Braden]

Wow.

[Eddie]

So what does he do? Like, charges 500, pockets the money, and then gives the lady 180. Is that the business they run?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think the lady was involved in that scam.

[Amy]

That would require you paying cash.

[Eddie]

Oh, those guys have an iPad and

[Bobby Bones]

they're like, venmo, how'd you pay?

[Eddie]

Yeah, iPad. Like, here's my iPad. Cool.

[Bobby Bones]

What is an iPad? You're just saying more.

[Amy]

That's like paying through. Like they have, like you can tap to pay.

[Eddie]

Yeah, the tap on their little sign, the path.

[Amy]

But it's a company issued device. Like, I don't.

[Lunchbox]

So you had to put your credit

[Eddie]

card in right now he scans.

[Bobby Bones]

He's like, you know, that's a little harder to scan.

[Amy]

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Unless they're.

[Bobby Bones]

Unless he's able to put 180 plus tip.

[Lunchbox]

Right.

[Eddie]

And his tip was 320.

[Braden]

No, let him do it.

[Eddie]

Thank you, Amy. 320.

[Amy]

Mommy had already said it.

[Eddie]

How did you know?

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so you didn't. You paid the 180?

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Was there a tip line when he finished, though?

[Eddie]

No, there was no tip line. Do you tip a repairman?

[Lunchbox]

No, no.

[Bobby Bones]

I would think it depends. I'm gonna go no, generally. But if it's somebody that's doing it, just I don't know if they're working for someone, possibly because they only make an hourly wage. Plus if it's themselves, they're setting their own rate and they're doing it. So all the money goes to them. But I would say no, unless they're going extremely out of their way to make something a lot easier. That wasn't part of the initial. Hey, my garage door is broken. He's like, yeah, your springs are broken. But look here, you have a bent.

[Eddie]

This.

[Bobby Bones]

I'll go and fix that as well then.

[Braden]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Oh, I feel like when they say stuff like that, they're trying to get

[Lunchbox]

more money out of it. That's right.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, you don't have to fix it.

[Eddie]

I know. Because like, even after the springs, like, have you ever serviced this thing? I'm like, dude, we have a new house. Like, it's not that old. I don't need to service it. Okay. Most of them.

[Amy]

But your springs were bad.

[Eddie]

Yeah, that Was weird. The springs popped. And then he said. He said, did it make a loud boom when it popped?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm like, no, but your house ain't that new anymore. You've been there a few years.

[Eddie]

Three or four years.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

You said springs last three or four years, which is crazy. Like, how long have you had your house? The garage door bust on you?

[Bobby Bones]

No, we haven't been there three years, though. There was a big boom this morning,

[Eddie]

though, coming to think of it.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, over on that table, there's the table where Lunchbox, Morgan, and Eddie sit. And apparently there's always, like, funny business happening over at that table. It used to be gross because we could. We'd never walk by it, so behind it, it'd just be all garbage. And we'd go, like, guys, clean the garbage out from behind the table. We now have to walk by there so we see what's behind, so it's. It's not so gross. Okay, Morgan, what's happening over there?

[Morgan]

Well, there's two things. The first one being with Eddie. I had won this $4 from you in a game, and I sat it there because I was like, maybe we'll play another game. Best of money. And I kept watching these $4 just inch closer and closer to Eddie. And like, the other day, I saw him, and they're right by his buttons over there. And I'm like, there's only one person who could have been moving them.

[Eddie]

You think I was moving them slowly to steal them?

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Just.

[Bobby Bones]

It's just walking off.

[Lunchbox]

It's slowly walking. That's smart.

[Morgan]

You're trying to see if I notice. See when you can get away with it?

[Eddie]

No.

[Braden]

Anything there?

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Eddie]

Like, why, If I wanted, I would just take it.

[Braden]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

The whole moving is slower.

[Braden]

That's weird.

[Bobby Bones]

What's the other thing?

[Morgan]

Well, and then Lunchbox has some lady's picture in a frame at his feet, and I don't know why and I don't know who it is.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you show us the picture and see if we know?

[Braden]

Oh.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you. Did you know you had that down there?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's see if we know who this woman is.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, you'll know who she is.

[Bobby Bones]

Hold on. Is that Cindy Sweeney?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

In a bathtub?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Why do you have that?

[Lunchbox]

Because I. When she was selling her bath soap, I found some on ebay, and I paid for it. It turned out I bought a picture of the bath soap, and so this is what came in the mail.

[Bobby Bones]

I also bought bad soap and never got anything.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. So I was paid $35 for this.

[Eddie]

So was that a scam?

[Lunchbox]

And then I went back and looked at the description, and it said in little letters, picture only. So they wrote the bath soap real big, like, oh, you know, got a bar. And I was like, oh, yeah, I'm gonna get it. And this is what I got. And I brought it.

[Bobby Bones]

Sydney Sweeney.

[Lunchbox]

And we never talked about it.

[Bobby Bones]

So you said, lady Morgan or woman.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, that is.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you not recognize?

[Amy]

Did you not recognize?

[Morgan]

I couldn't see it because it's down in the dark. And I didn't want to get, you know, all of. In his business. I just knew there was a lady in a framed picture of his feet.

[Lunchbox]

You didn't want to get in my business. But you were looking under. Yeah, but. Yes, that's Sydney Sweeney, man. That's her bath soap when she was selling her own bath water. And you have the freedom.

[Bobby Bones]

Throw that away. Now. We give you permission.

[Lunchbox]

And So I lost 35 on that sucker.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, what were you gonna do with the bath soap if you got it?

[Lunchbox]

Bathe with Sydney Sweeney.

[Eddie]

Oh, boy.

[Bobby Bones]

Because it was bath water from her own bath they were putting in the soap.

[Lunchbox]

Correct. And so it was a big deal, and it was going. And I was like, oh, my gosh. I was so lucky. I got. Got. Got to read those details. Fine print, man. Fine print will get you. But that's Sydney Sweeney, man. I wasn't trying to hide anything. She could sit up there for a couple weeks.

[Morgan]

Can we get rid of it now?

[Bobby Bones]

You can get rid of it now. Yeah. Yeah. Bobby Bones, show the top 10 human experiences. So that's. It's a broad question, but they asked AI, what are the top 10 human experiences? I'm gonna give you one, and then see if you can name any of the others. Just to give you like. Number 10 is finding your true purpose. The moment of clarity where your actions feel deeply aligned with who you are. That is number 10 on the list of the top 10 human experiences. Amy becoming a parent at number two. Great job. Becoming a parent or caregiver. Witnessing life grow because of you. Love is deepened through responsibility and wonder. Do you all agree that that's one of them?

[Eddie]

Oh, yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Top 10.

[Eddie]

Top 10 good, good ones. Yeah, man. It's a. It's crazy. It's. It makes you look at life just completely different.

[Bobby Bones]

How so?

[Eddie]

Well, I mean, you're now in charge. Well, first off, you made this kid like you made this child. You don't know how it happened, but it happened. And now it's your Responsibility to raise this child.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't know how it happened.

[Eddie]

Well, I mean.

[Amy]

I mean, he knows I know how

[Eddie]

it happened, but it's bizarre.

[Amy]

Also through. I mean, I. I still would love to experience pregnancy, I think, but I don't want to because I've gotten older. But it's just. Yes, yes, it's crazy to grow a human in your belly, but even becoming a mom through adoption, like, that's still one of the greatest. What'd you say? What do. These are.

[Bobby Bones]

These are the top 10 human experiences.

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Amy]

It's been a great experience becoming a mom, even through adoption, because you're still raising these little humans.

[Bobby Bones]

It does say caregiver or caregiver. Okay. So, yeah, I have that to look forward to.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

To have a new. Okay, Amy, you're still alive. Can you name another one? Top 10 human experiences.

[Amy]

I mean, meeting your person.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Falling deeply in love is number one.

[Amy]

Getting married.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. The connection, vulnerability, and excitement of sharing your life with someone who sees and accepts you.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Is number one.

[Amy]

Can you tell me the category again?

[Bobby Bones]

Top 10 human experiences.

[Eddie]

Pretty easy.

[Jo Winterstein]

Top 10.

[Amy]

Top 10 humans.

[Eddie]

You got this, right.

[Amy]

Okay, human experiences. Traveling.

[Bobby Bones]

Number nine. Traveling somewhere that transforms your perspective.

[Eddie]

Good one.

[Bobby Bones]

Cultural immersion that humbles and expands you, Realizing how big and diverse the world truly is. For me, when I started traveling to places, especially out of the country, I was like, oh, I have no idea what's going on. I think I know stuff. It's all based on what I was born around, I've been around, heard people tell me around. Completely changes the game and how you feel. So I don't have the parent one yet, but I do have the traveling one. You feel completely different about everything once you see people from other cultures and so far away, and you realize we're exactly the same and we're so different at the same time. Yeah, Amy, you're crushing this list.

[Amy]

Okay, so, like, you already shared that. Finding your purpose is on there. But, like, what about. I'm just thinking of, like, the human connection, which is different than finding your.

[Braden]

Your.

[Jo Winterstein]

Your.

[Amy]

Your partner, your love. Like, the human connection. Like serving others.

[Bobby Bones]

Like serving others. Let's. Helping someone in a life changing way.

[Eddie]

That's good. That counts.

[Amy]

That. I filed that under human connection. Like, that's what.

[Bobby Bones]

We're saving a life.

[Braden]

Which.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie, you've done.

[Eddie]

Oh, I've done that, man. That's life changing.

[Bobby Bones]

Is it crazy?

[Eddie]

Oh, dude. Human experience is what that is.

[Bobby Bones]

Inspiring a breakthrough or being there when no one else was. What you could say about being A lifeguard?

[Lunchbox]

Sure.

[Bobby Bones]

Man.

[Eddie]

Unbelievable life.

[Bobby Bones]

Amos. Crushing. Go ahead. Top 10 human experiences. Yeah. Falling deeply in love. Becoming a parent. Helping someone in a life changing way. Traveling and finding your true purpose.

[Amy]

Top 10 human experiences.

[Bobby Bones]

Also, the irony of asking AI about human experiences.

[Lunchbox]

Right.

[Amy]

Is like learning and reading on there. Uh oh, expanding your.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, no, you just keep saying stuff. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

No, I think it's like a nerve.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm gonna go. No.

[Amy]

Oh, dang.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Eddie, can you name one of these? Yep, go ahead. Your first time doing it?

[Amy]

What?

[Eddie]

Dude, come on, you can't argue with that.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't make the list.

[Eddie]

It's not on the list. That's shocking. Maybe it's filed under falling in love for the first time.

[Bobby Bones]

Let me check the file. Possibly. No, that is not one lunchbox. You wanna take a shot?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Buying a house, Putting a roof over your head.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I think these are a little more vast. For example, one of them is laughing until you cry.

[Braden]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

Shared joy in its purest form. Another one is experiencing nature at its most majestic. Standing somewhere, like on a mountaintop or seeing the northern lights or swimming in the ocean. Something like that.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Amy, that's right up your alley.

[Bobby Bones]

Which part?

[Eddie]

Oh, just standing on top of a mountain and enjoying. Well, doesn't she forest, basically.

[Bobby Bones]

Why is it her alley? That's just like in the woods behind your house, though. Being truly understood, finding someone who truly gets you.

[Amy]

That would be great.

[Braden]

Amy.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy starts crying in the middle of this segment.

[Amy]

To feel truly seen.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. There's two more. Achieving a lifelong dream. That moment when effort, patience and persistence finally pay off a goal achieved after years of struggle. What do you think, boys? You guys ever achieved a lifelong dream?

[Eddie]

Eddie, Lifelong dream? Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I have. Playing on a stage.

[Bobby Bones]

Just playing on a stage.

[Eddie]

Yeah. I mean, in front of a lot of people. I mean, we got to do that. From when I was a little kid, that's what I've wanted to do. Like be a rock star. And the fact that we got to play some of the biggest stages in the country. Yeah, man, we did it.

[Bobby Bones]

Lunchbox. Any lifelong dream, man.

[Lunchbox]

No, I haven't. I think about it and I'm just like, no, I haven't. Like, I had all these dreams and I seem to come up short every single time. So no, I. I can't honestly say that I have.

[Bobby Bones]

How does that make you feel?

[Lunchbox]

Sucks, man. Like when you say it, like, I was all excited to answer and then you came to me and I'm like, no, no, it kind of like, as you were coming to me, it. Like, I got sadder and sadder and realized, no, I haven't. Man. Dang, that's weird.

[Bobby Bones]

What's one you'd still like to achieve? One you're working on right now with effort and patience and persistence?

[Lunchbox]

Reality show, game show, tv. I mean, just any of those realms. Like, I. That's what I dreamed about as a kid. And, I mean, I guess I've been on tv, but not in the role that I. You know, like, as an extra in Friday Night Lights. Isn't really what I was expecting.

[Bobby Bones]

It feels like you're just wishing a lot.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Maybe that's what I do. That's what lifelong dreams are. I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

I think lifelong dreams, you can actually achieve them by working more than wishing.

[Eddie]

What about money, Lunchbox? Like, you trying.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, you're just making him sadder. No, I'm only asking that question and

[Amy]

making one that he's done. Like, becoming a dad. Like, for me, becoming a mom.

[Lunchbox]

That wasn't. That wasn't a life for me.

[Amy]

It was a dream. I had to make it happen.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, that wasn't a lifelong dream of mine, but. Yeah. Eddie, the money thing still ain't there. Like, still not where I need to be.

[Eddie]

Okay, but you're working on it.

[Lunchbox]

I'm working on it.

[Amy]

In some ways, though, don't you feel like you're making more than you would ever make?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. I really thought in, like, real world, like, I can't be on the real world because it doesn't even exist anymore. Like, it's like, that was a lifelong dream that will never have the challenge.

[Amy]

Like, we get paid to talk. Yeah, that is a dream. I used to get in trouble for talking.

[Bobby Bones]

Is that a dream? Watchbox.

[Lunchbox]

I wanted to do sports broadcasting when I was a kid. That's what I really wanted to do.

[Amy]

Soar. Losers.

[Lunchbox]

That's not sports broadcasting. It's a pod. I wanted to call games. Amy. I thought, like, I watched tv and I was like, man, that is so cool. Never really happened for me.

[Bobby Bones]

Why didn't you. Why didn't it happen?

[Lunchbox]

Well, as I got older, I realized they travel all the time, and I felt like that kind of sucks.

[Bobby Bones]

Too much work.

[Lunchbox]

Well, no, not too much work. It's just like, man, you're gone.

[Bobby Bones]

Traveling's work.

[Amy]

Yeah, there's, like, a sacrifice. He doesn't want to sacrifice.

[Lunchbox]

No, no. It just didn't seem like being in a different city every night. It would be cool for maybe one or two years. But after that, I don't know if it'd be that much fun.

[Bobby Bones]

So, yeah, it's definitely a sacrifice.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. So that's one reason I was like, I'm out.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I'm sorry to hear that. You haven't achieved any dreams.

[Lunchbox]

Gee, you guys suck.

[Braden]

What do we do?

[Lunchbox]

You guys just keep piling on. I don't really like this segment.

[Bobby Bones]

We're not piling on. We're all talking about it.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I know, but Eddie brought up the money, and now I'm thinking about, man, I need to go play the lottery today and maybe hit that money.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you think hitting the lottery would actually make you happy?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yes. Oh, my gosh.

[Eddie]

Oh, you think so, Amy?

[Amy]

I think. I think so. I think so.

[Eddie]

I think he would find something to complain about.

[Bobby Bones]

But what's the lottery like? What's the winning level that would make you happy? Because if you hit $25,000, I mean,

[Lunchbox]

that's cool, but it's not happy.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, what's happy then?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man, it has to be a few million. Has to be like, it has to be retirement level money. Like, so I don't.

[Bobby Bones]

If you hit for 1 million, you wouldn't be happy.

[Lunchbox]

I'd be ecstatic, but not, like, satisfied. Like, it wouldn't be like, oh, my gosh, that's what I need. Like, if it could send me into retirement, like, the stratosphere, Like, I could just be like, boom, Done with anything. No day to days. Don't have to worry about a clock. That would make me happy.

[Eddie]

Dude, not to worry about a clock would be awesome.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, really would.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm terrible. Like, I've had some weekends recently where. Cause my wife's pregnant. I'm not going anywhere. Just being there. I don't have any plan. That's torture for me.

[Eddie]

Really?

[Bobby Bones]

I hate it.

[Braden]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

I can't just sit around.

[Amy]

Oh. Cause you can't say yes to work commitments.

[Bobby Bones]

No. Just because I have no plan. There's no plan.

[Eddie]

Ah, it's the best.

[Bobby Bones]

I hate not having a.

[Amy]

For work.

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

Just of anything. I'm not going anywhere. I'm not doing anything. Just sitting. Sitting at the house with. No.

[Amy]

That's so weird. I would think you would be, like, you don't want. Like, you don't want to have to have plans. Like social.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's. But it's not even about social. There's just nothing. I wake up, I have nothing on the schedule to do at all at any point in the day, and that is beautiful. All I'M doing is waiting till the sun goes down to go to bed. Yes, that's what it feels like.

[Eddie]

How cool though. Like when you're hungry, you eat.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't like that. I like to be on a schedule. I like my eating to be on a schedule. I need to eat by at the latest, 10am or that counts as lunch.

[Amy]

Well, you could put your food down on the schedule if that would help you feel better.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm just saying it's so rare that it happens. So the last couple of weekends when I've done nothing, I just wake up and I'm like, I don't know, what am I supposed to do here?

[Amy]

Well, I know. So be like, go for a walk.

[Bobby Bones]

You know I hate walks.

[Eddie]

That's making a schedule.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but I hate walks. I could do that.

[Amy]

It sounds like he wants a schedule, Eddie.

[Eddie]

I know, I know.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not even allowed to put anything in the schedule. I hate walks. Hey, walks the beach.

[Amy]

Oh my gosh, man.

[Bobby Bones]

I start to be like lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

I know.

[Braden]

I hate the segment.

[Lunchbox]

I hate everything.

[Bobby Bones]

The last one on the list is hearing I love you for the first time. A life shifting emotional moment when both hearts align in vulnerability. Can I say, Eddie, that's kind of like yours doing it.

[Rob Gronkowski]

I think it's the first time.

[Bobby Bones]

I think it's the same cat. You know, I think those just kind of shake hands.

[Lunchbox]

We made the list.

[Bobby Bones]

Those are the top 10 human experiences. Alright, that's gonna do it for us. We are going on a cruise. So we will be doing the show next week, I think. I'm pretty sure. They've promised us that we have a connection. They've swore to us we have a connection. We'll mostly be on the water, but I believe that we will be doing a show next week. So thank you guys for being here all this week. We will see you next week. Anybody that's coming on the cruise with us, we can't wait to see you. You and we'll see you on Monday. All right, bye everybody.
