We'Ve all experienced being put on hold. The annoying music, the automated message. It's excruciating. And right now, America's seniors are on hold, waiting for nutritious meals and moments of connection, waiting for America to care. Due to a growing aging population, rising costs, and insufficient funding, Meals on Wheels programs are experiencing higher need than ever before. This wait is especially ridiculous because a proven solution already exists, as Meals on Wheels remains the most effective and financially responsible solution to address senior hunger in isolation. Answer the call and help end the wait by donating@mealsonwheelsamerica.org donate.

Bobby Bones
Good morning, friends. It's time for Listener Q and A. Lunchbox is joining me. Good morning, lunch.
Lunchbox
Good morning.
Bobby Bones
You alive over there?
Lunchbox
Yeah, I'm alive. I'm just, you know, waking up on a Saturday and, you know, I like your. You have a normal voice and you go Saturday morning questions like, what do you mean?
Bobby Bones
It sounds the exact same to me.
Lunchbox
No, no, no.
Bobby Bones
You make fun of my voice so much.
Lunchbox
No, I've never made fun of your voice.
Bobby Bones
That's not true. The one time my accent, my words.
Lunchbox
No, no, no. I didn't make fun of your words. I make fun of your words sometimes, but when you say. And what no one has ever said in their life, but.
Bobby Bones
And you make fun of my sometimes country accent.
Lunchbox
No, no, no. The only time you have a country accent is when you talk to a country person. Like Lainey Wilson is. All of a sudden. All of a sudden, you're a country girl, too.
Bobby Bones
No, that's. That's a pretty good country accent. But no, I do it more often than that. That's just the only time you hear it.
Lunchbox
Right. But right there, when you were starting it, I don't know, you went into a lower, like, okay, it's a good morning.
Bobby Bones
Like, it's called having inflection in your voice.
Lunchbox
No, no, no, no, no, no. You. You're, like, right now you're.
Bobby Bones
I'm getting roasted, guys. We haven't even gotten into it.
Lunchbox
No, I'm not roasting, I swear. You. It's not a roast. I just wanted to know if you noticed that you're talking normal right now, but just when you said, good morning, guys, you went very.
Bobby Bones
Just having fun with your voice. You know, sometimes. It's funny.
Lunchbox
I didn't know if you did that on purpose.
Bobby Bones
You like to yell all the time sometimes. You're talking normal, like, right now, and I don't make fun of you for sometimes yelling.
Lunchbox
I didn't know if you were doing that on purpose or if you just. No, I just instinctually went to, good morning, guys.
Bobby Bones
No, it's not like I'm purposely doing anything. I just. That's just how I.
Lunchbox
That's just how it went out. Okay. I thought maybe that was your thing to start out the question section.
Bobby Bones
Maybe I shouldn't give all these shout outs you know, there's some nice things about you in here, but I don't know.
Lunchbox
I'm not.
Bobby Bones
I feel like they should be pulled back.
Lunchbox
I don't think. I think you're taking it as a shot. I just didn't know if you noticed that you did it.
Bobby Bones
No, lunchbox. That's just my voice. No, no, that's just me as a human being existing in the world, maybe talking on a microphone.
Lunchbox
I don't think you get what I'm saying. I think you're taking it as a personal shot. I just didn't know if that was what you did. Every time. On the question section of Best Bits, if you started out with a low, good morning, guys. Or if that just. It just happened today.
Bobby Bones
I don't know. Okay, but we just spent 2 minutes and 15 minutes listening to that.
Lunchbox
Well, so the people find that interesting because I. Maybe I heard it. Maybe because I have my hood up. Maybe I heard it wrong. Maybe it was a normal. Good. Good morning, guys. And I heard it as Good morning, gu.
Bobby Bones
Can we get into the questions now?
Lunchbox
Yeah, let's. Let's do the shout outs, man.
Bobby Bones
Okay. My two favorite people from the show can't wait to listen. Jody from Oklahoma City.
Lunchbox
What up, Oklahoma City? Jody, do you know my cousin Megan, probably. Or Melissa?
Bobby Bones
You don't even know her name. Lauren.
Lunchbox
They're sisters.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I was like.
Lunchbox
Or Michelle. They're Megan, Michelle and Melissa. They're all sisters.
Bobby Bones
They're all M's.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I really enjoy your brother sister relationship. Lauren from Oregon. Well, you just got a nice dose of that.
Lunchbox
What up, Oregon? I've been to Bend, Oregon. That pretty cool? That's a beautiful spot.
Bobby Bones
Really pretty.
Lunchbox
I bet Ben, it was blowing up when I was there like a few years ago, so I bet you it's like crazy blown up, like a lot of people moving there. Hopefully it doesn't ruin the beauty of it. Just small little talk right there for me.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Shannon from North Carolina just wants lunch to know you're the reason she listens to the show.
Lunchbox
Thank you, Shannon. North Carolina, raise up, take your shirt off. Spinning around your head like a helicopter.
Bobby Bones
North Carolina, we're never going to get to the questions.
Lunchbox
Well, you know what I'm saying. You know that song.
Bobby Bones
No.
Lunchbox
You don't know Petey Pablo at this.
Bobby Bones
Moment, I'm just trying to give you shout outs.
Lunchbox
You literally don't know Petey Pablo.
Bobby Bones
We haven't even got to the question.
Lunchbox
I know, it's okay, but I just want to know if you knew Petey Pablo.
Bobby Bones
Not off the top of my head.
Lunchbox
In this moment, you need to listen to that song.
Bobby Bones
Lunchbox is one of my faves. Love the excitement he brings to the show. That's from Melissa.
Lunchbox
From where?
Bobby Bones
I don't know. She just put her name.
Lunchbox
All right, Melissa. Maybe that's my cousin from Oklahoma.
Bobby Bones
Sure. Shout out to Justice.
Lunchbox
No, no, Melissa's not married to Justice. Megan's married to Justice. Sorry.
Bobby Bones
Don't mess that up.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Love your dad stories. You sound like a great Eng dad. That's Jen in California.
Lunchbox
What up? Jen in California. Oh, maybe that's my sister's best friend Jen that lives in California.
Bobby Bones
Goodness. One more. Tiffany in Texas. Favorite best bits are with Lunchbox.
Lunchbox
All right, Tiffany in Texas. Maybe I went to school with a Tiffany, and I don't know which Tiffany that is. That could be a lot of Tiffany's.
Bobby Bones
Okay, are you ready for the question?
Lunchbox
Yeah, I. I know the first question. Oh, my gosh. Lunchbox. What's your skincare routine? How do you look so young? Guys, I don't do anything to my skin. It's just natural.
Bobby Bones
I just actually get a question about yours, but I didn't.
Lunchbox
Stop it. Really? You're lying, right? Like, I don't know what. Like I was. I was walking in here on a Saturday morning. I was like, I'm just going to start out with this joke real quick and I'm going to hit it. And the fact that you actually got one, yeah, that's pretty great. But now, guys, it's just all natural, okay?
Bobby Bones
Do you see all the hate that you get online? Does it bother you? Do you play the villain? That's from Elizabeth.
Lunchbox
Elizabeth. Do I see it? Sometimes I see it. Some people tell me about it. But really, let me tell you about my life. I don't spend much time on social media, and if I did, I don't care. I don't care what these people think, because guess what? They're all idiots. They don't have sense of humors. They don't know how to live life. So, no, the comments don't bother me. I've been doing this. Let me check my watch. 20, 25, 22 years. Nah, it doesn't bother me one bit.
Bobby Bones
Dang, you old. I had to. You set me up for that.
Lunchbox
Really?
Bobby Bones
You said 22 years.
Lunchbox
Or you could have said, dang, you started young. No, that's not as fun because how old are you?
Bobby Bones
That's not as fun because your face right now is worth the old joke. I'm 31. I'm crying. I said I'm young. I just was a funny thing. Okay, A funny joke.
Lunchbox
Not that. Not that funny.
Bobby Bones
You know, I always know when I get you with a joke, you just stare at me.
Lunchbox
No, I just want to make you feel uncomfortable. And that's an awkward laugh right now.
Bobby Bones
No, that's my hyena laugh that I thought something was really funny.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I'm glad you cracked yourself up. But really, what it means is, dang, dude, you must be really good at your job because you've been doing it for so long.
Bobby Bones
That's also true.
Lunchbox
Like, when people work at a company for, like, 20 years, they usually get, like, parties and celebrated. I get old jokes. Yes. See, here's what I got to deal with.
Bobby Bones
I'm very happy and proud of you because you're right. That is an accomplishment. But, yeah, also, it was funny because you've been here a long time.
Lunchbox
I have been here a long time. I get people. You know, it's weird.
Bobby Bones
What?
Lunchbox
I've had people come up to me and be like, oh, my gosh. I used to listen to you on the way all the time. When the third grade is. When we started listening.
Bobby Bones
That was me. Lunchbox.
Lunchbox
No, no, you're not listening. You haven't let me finish the story. And they have their kid with them. That's what. See, that's what I'm saying. I was getting somewhere, like, even better, and I'm like, well, you have a kid now. They're like, yeah, they're in third grade. I'm like, oh, that's crazy.
Bobby Bones
It's come full cycle.
Lunchbox
It's come full cycle that I get full circle, man. It's like, whoa. That's when it's like, holy crap.
Bobby Bones
No, that was me, though. I don't have a kid yet, but that was me. I used to listen to you guys when I was driving to high school.
Lunchbox
High school's different than third grade.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. That's a young mama.
Lunchbox
No, not really. I mean, if you think. If you think about it, if they were in third grade, they're going back in 2003. Right.
Bobby Bones
That means it's still, like, 29.
Lunchbox
29 is not that young to be a mom.
Bobby Bones
I'm just saying, like, so she's roughly around my age.
Lunchbox
So, yeah, they probably were 26, 27 when they had a kid, maybe. And I'm like, that's. That's wild, man. Full circle moment.
Bobby Bones
Would you ever have Morgan babysit your kids for a date night? Natasha from Texas?
Lunchbox
Yeah, sure. I don't care I'll let anybody babysit my kids. Here's the thing. I hire random people off the Internet, so why would I not trust Morgan? She. She is a human being that has a heart, and it beats, and she seems like she keeps herself alive. So I think she could keep three kids alive for one night.
Bobby Bones
That is true.
Lunchbox
I mean, I don't think it would be a big deal at all.
Bobby Bones
I would totally watch them for you guys.
Lunchbox
Really?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Oh, my gosh. This is breaking news.
Bobby Bones
You never asked.
Lunchbox
Well, I never even thought about it, to be honest with you, because let me tell you, some of these babysitters, they charge you a lot of money. And I'm like, guys, you are outrageous in your prices.
Bobby Bones
No, outrageous much as hang out with them.
Lunchbox
Yeah. And trust me, my kids just like to hang out. They're so easy.
Bobby Bones
I like playing games. We can play games.
Lunchbox
They can play games. Yeah. They'll run away and hide from you. It's great.
Bobby Bones
What is your Mount Rushmore of cringe moments over the years, Troy from Orlando.
Lunchbox
What up, Troy? Cringe moments. What do you mean? Like? Like that I felt uncomfortable or made people feel uncomfortable.
Bobby Bones
Probably for you. That you made people feel uncomfortable because you don't get uncomfortable.
Lunchbox
I mean, one funny one that jumps in my mind that I still laugh at that. I think the artist was so thrown off by what I did.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Was when I was interviewing Morgan Wallen.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah. And you were like, you are.
Lunchbox
No, no. I was like, his song had just gone number one. And I was like, dude, what's it feel like to get your first number one? What's it like to get your first number one? Like, who did you call first? He's like, oh, it's cool. And I was like, man, you seem pretty chill for your first number one. And I went on and on about his first number one for, like, two and a half minutes maybe. And then he just finally goes, it's actually my second. I was like, this.
Bobby Bones
This interview's on YouTube.
Lunchbox
And I feel like he was just like, this guy has no idea about. And he's right. I had no idea. But it wasn't cringe for me. But I think he felt awkward.
Bobby Bones
Like, he was like, oh, yeah, you can tell. He felt visibly awkward.
Lunchbox
Like, he felt very. Like he was shaking. Like, it was like, what is going on? I was just like, oh, my bad, man. So I guess apparently his first was up, down, up, down.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
And then he had another one after that.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. And into your defense. I don't know that at the time. You really paid attention to the number ones. I still don't know what you do.
Lunchbox
I still don't. But, like, you could tell.
Bobby Bones
Maybe have a little bit more.
Lunchbox
I couldn't even tell you what the number one was last week, this week, next week. I don't know who's. Like, I don't even know what to.
Bobby Bones
Help you out there.
Lunchbox
Like, I don't know what songs are at the top. There's. Sometimes they're number one. I'd never heard of them.
Bobby Bones
You know a good cringe that still makes me giggle and feel awkward myself these days is when you guys Ubered me divorce papers.
Lunchbox
You think that's cringe?
Bobby Bones
Oh, is that Uber driver felt so like when he had to deliver them to me.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
He was so visibly uncomfortable. And then I like, fake cried, so then he was even more uncomfortable.
Lunchbox
That's funny that.
Bobby Bones
That one was a funny moment.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I don't find that. I found that funny. I don't know why that'd be cringe because, well, it's. You're not really getting divorced.
Bobby Bones
That's like uncomfortable. Could be cringe to people.
Lunchbox
Yeah. I'm trying to think if there's any other things that stick out in my mind because, I mean, I just don't. I'm trying to think what would make people cringe.
Bobby Bones
The bathroom confessions are always hilarious and definitely cringe worthy.
Lunchbox
Yeah. And you know what I need? I need scuba to stop sending me pictures of him in the bathroom. Like, if he's in a stall, he'll take a picture of the stall and be like, hey, stall one, it's stall two. And I'm like, nate, I don't need that. That's enough. Like, no need to do that. You know what I'm saying?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Okay. Those are some good ones.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I guess those are cringe.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Yeah. You don't see anything as like cringe?
Lunchbox
No, I'm trying to think if I've done anything else that you guys find cringe. Well, no, that's it, man. That's all I got.
Bobby Bones
Okay. I guess you're not cringe worthy. What are your thoughts about Jordan not going back on the challenge? Ashton from Virginia.
Lunchbox
What?
Bobby Bones
I don't know. I assumed you would know what that meant.
Lunchbox
No, I have no idea.
Bobby Bones
Who's Jordan?
Lunchbox
Jordan Wesley. He's. There's arguments to be made that he is the best challenger of all time.
Bobby Bones
This was about. And you looked like I was asking you a question.
Lunchbox
I have no idea what she's saying that he's never going to go Back on the challenge. I don't know what, that he's not.
Bobby Bones
Going back on the challenge?
Lunchbox
Well, I don't know anything about that. I see. I don't read spoilers and I don't read outside stuff because I don't want to be. I don't want stuff to be ruined. So I don't Google these people when they're on the challenge. I watch the challenge and that's it. Because I don't want any to find the storyline before the season comes out. So I'm not sure what that is referring to.
Bobby Bones
Well, apparently there's no official confirmation that he's done with the challenge. He stated that he's filming other projects and might be taking a break, but also indicated he intends to return in the future.
Lunchbox
Right. That's why. I don't know. I've never heard anything about Jordan not being on the challenge ever again.
Bobby Bones
It looks like he's. Well, she didn't say ever again. She just said not going back. So maybe he's like, not going back for the season.
Lunchbox
That's fine. I mean, everybody takes a season or two off. He's got other things. He just won.
Bobby Bones
Is he like a big challenge guy?
Lunchbox
Yeah, I met him in Vegas. That's the one I freaked out on in Vegas.
Bobby Bones
Oh, was he at the iHeart Festival?
Lunchbox
Yeah, he was dating some girl.
Bobby Bones
Oh, was he dating Tori Deal?
Lunchbox
No, he used to. He was engaged to her. They got engaged on the challenge, then they broke 2023.
Bobby Bones
So it was a different girl.
Lunchbox
Yeah. No, that one. Yeah. Was it 2023? Feels like it's long ago than that.
Bobby Bones
I was gonna look him up.
Lunchbox
He was dating Star or Ranch or.
Bobby Bones
There'S somebody named Ranch.
Lunchbox
I know. I'm just trying to name Sparkle. No, Diamond.
Bobby Bones
Diamond.
Lunchbox
Try that.
Bobby Bones
No, if somebody is named Ranch, that is.
Lunchbox
Oh, check. Check out who he's just type in Jordan. Country singer dating.
Bobby Bones
Oh, Diner.
Lunchbox
Is her name Diner?
Bobby Bones
It says Diner there it is.
Lunchbox
Not Diamond.
Bobby Bones
Local diner girl. Just call me Diner.
Lunchbox
She still dating him?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it looks like.
Lunchbox
Yeah. See, she was at the iHeart Festival in Vegas and he was backstage and I flipped. I couldn't believe it was him.
Bobby Bones
Dang. Interesting. Okay.
Lunchbox
Yeah, he's. He's. He is unbelievable. Like, he's got one hand.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
And he beat another dude at a tug of war thing with one hand.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah.
Lunchbox
Pretty impressive.
Bobby Bones
Nice. Okay, well, we're gonna take a break.
Lunchbox
Yeah, he's pretty. We're already done with questions.
Bobby Bones
No, we have more, so. But we're gonna take a break real quick.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but yeah, so I don't know. I would be sad if he never came back. But like Wes retiring, do they really retire? Leroy retired, but then he came back to All Stars. So I don't know when they retire, they just need a break. I mean they got, they're getting older, they have lives. And Jordan has made so much money. He's got other projects.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
He's a baller.
Bobby Bones
There you go. Hot take from the challenge master himself. We will take quick break. We'll be right back.

Bobby Bones
You just said a bunch of words and I don't Think any of that confirmed that you are actually doing deals?
Lunchbox
Oh, I'm looking for deals all the time.
Bobby Bones
Gotcha. But you don't have any active deals right now.
Lunchbox
I mean, I got deals upon deals upon deals. I got offers at my doorstep. I just got to decide which ones to take.
Bobby Bones
I see.
Lunchbox
You know, there's like Tequila brand, there's this brand. I mean, it's just like. I don't know, I mean, there's Alpha 10 bars. I mean, there's all these people just.

Why don't you want to do that?
Lunchbox
I don't know if that's real.
Bobby Bones
Well, who cares?
Lunchbox
What do you mean? Who cares? If it's not real, it can't be real.
Bobby Bones
Well, they said they wanted to offer. Why wouldn't you try and look into it? Yeah, if it ends up being not real, fine, but why don't you look into it? Then you can get rid of all your stuff.
Lunchbox
Yeah, yeah, I know, I know.
Bobby Bones
All right.
Lunchbox
I know.
Bobby Bones
Do you still get amazing tax refunds, Keaton, in D.C. what up, D.C. yeah.
Lunchbox
I still do a great job with my taxes. A lot of write offs. Lot of write offs. I mean, you just have to be very creative with how you do it and how you spend your money and make sure you keep your receipts. That way you have proof if they come knock, knock, knocking at lunch's door.
Bobby Bones
Do you actually keep receipts?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones

Lunchbox
Why?
Bobby Bones
You just don't strike me as somebody who keeps receipts.
Lunchbox
I mean, are they organized?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Are they laying all over the house?
Bobby Bones
Oh, okay.
Lunchbox
Yes. So does it drive my wife nuts and she. Why don't you put them in a folder? Yeah, but that's just not my style.
Bobby Bones
You know, you can easily get one of the. This is what I do with all my receipts. They're. They're organized by month. And then I put them all at the end of the year into a giant folder.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I put them in an accordion.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's what I have.
Lunchbox
I have one of those. I bought one.
Bobby Bones
But they're also all over the house.
Lunchbox
No, no, I bought the accordion. I labeled them, but then I don't ever put them in there.
Bobby Bones
Okay, well, that defeats the purpose of said accordion.
Lunchbox
But it's sort of like, when I was in college and I bought a planner and I wrote out. During the college, the summer, I had two jobs, and I wrote out every single day I had to work. And then someone stole my planner. So it was God telling me, you don't need to be organized.
Bobby Bones
I don't think that's how that works.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Then how come I only had it for two days before someone stole it?
Bobby Bones
Well, somebody just needed it more than you. At that moment, they broke into my.
Lunchbox
Car and stole it.
Bobby Bones
It's an interesting thing to steal, but.
Lunchbox
I think they stole my backpack. And it was in the backpack.
Bobby Bones
Got it. Okay.
Lunchbox
So you.
Bobby Bones
They weren't like, planner, yes, we want to steal this man's life?
Lunchbox
Or they were like, let me see when he's gonna be at work so we can come back and break in. Oh, didn't you think about.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but were you actually putting on there at work nine to five?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
Because I had two jobs.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah, that makes sense.
Lunchbox
Like, I had orientation leader, so I was like, all right, I gotta be there from 7 to 3, and then Walmart.
Bobby Bones
Okay, well, that makes more sense. Yeah, I was, like, thinking, like.
Lunchbox
You were thinking I was crazy.
Bobby Bones
No, I was thinking that he had like. Like, you're doing this job and every day you just wrote 5am 10am Working on the show.
Lunchbox
No, no, that's not how it worked. That's not how it worked. No, no, no.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Have you read any good books lately? Love LB Week.
Lunchbox
Love LB Week.
Bobby Bones
I think that got corrected in my thing. Gin in Florida.
Lunchbox
Gin in Florida. Let me look.
Bobby Bones
Oh, Love LB Week. Like, when you're on the Best Bits.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I'd have to get back to you on that one.
Bobby Bones
You're not doing any reading?
Lunchbox
No, I did. I. Well, it's. It's. It's a lot harder with kids.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, everything is.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I read this one. I'm not gonna. No, I'm not gonna say that one.
Bobby Bones
Why? Why aren't you gonna say one?
Lunchbox
Because I. I don't want to. How do I. How do I describe. Is gonna be annoying for half the audience.
Bobby Bones
I see. Okay. You don't have to say it, but it's.
Lunchbox
No, I'm gonna say it anyway. It's called Solito, and it's about this kid making the journey to the United States. His father had come, and he barely. He doesn't remember his father, and he barely remembers his mom. She came later. And then he lived with Grandma and Grandpa, and so then it was time for him to come when he Was nine years old.
Bobby Bones
Wow.
Lunchbox
And it's the journey trying to get to America.
Bobby Bones
How do you find these books? Are they all recommendations?
Lunchbox
Nah, is just walking around the bookstore and it's on the shelf.
Bobby Bones
Okay. And do you read at night? Like you go to bed and you lay in bed and read for a little bit or.
Lunchbox
Usually when I'm taking a poop.
Bobby Bones
Okay. I just didn't know with kids when.
Lunchbox
That'S when I got my time. It's like. And so that's what I'm saying. It takes a long time to read a book. It takes a long time to read a book.
Bobby Bones
Okay. I was picturing you having some relaxing moment and you just, you know. Okay.
Lunchbox
And so I go in the bathroom and I hide for 20 to 25 minutes.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
And that's when I read. And that is my relaxation. I sit in the stench and I sit there and I read a couple pages.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
And so. Yes.
Bobby Bones
So I should not have asked that question. I regret everything.

I never even thought about that, to be honest with you.
Bobby Bones
You've really never thought, like, I wear hoodies all the Time. This is kind of my signature thing. You wore one to the CMA Awards. Why have you not thought about, hey, I should have my own hoodie line?
Lunchbox
Because I wouldn't even know how to design them.
Bobby Bones
Okay, you pay somebody to design them.
Lunchbox
Oh, really?
Bobby Bones
Yes. They're hard, graphic designers.
Lunchbox
Oh. Like, I mean, I don't even know, like, what would you. Because here's the thing. I don't know anything about fashion, so I don't know what's.
Bobby Bones
You could have something that says, all I do is win. You could have.
Lunchbox
I bet that's trademarked, maybe.
Bobby Bones
Okay, well, you could do just different things. You could just come up with cool designs, and they're just cool hoodies that, like, you would wear. They don't have to say anything.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I don't know. I've never even thought about it. But that, hey, you can even do.
Bobby Bones
Like, the really popular ones right now are to have teeny, tiny words, like in the middle of chest. You could just one that says lb.
Lunchbox
Really?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's really popular right now.
Lunchbox
Oh, See, like, I don't know what's pop. That's my problem is I don't know fashion. I don't know the trends.
Bobby Bones
But hoodies are your thing, right?
Lunchbox
I love hoodies. I love a nice, soft hoodie. I love them. They're great.
Bobby Bones
Well, Dan, sounds like never. What is the most thoughtful thing you've ever done for your wife? Nikki and Alabama married her. Oh, shoot. Yeah.
Lunchbox
What?
Bobby Bones
Nothing. I was supposed to bring something today and I forgot.

Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
That's your thoughtfulness.
Lunchbox
That's pretty good, isn't it? I mean, what else is there to do? What else? What else?
Bobby Bones
I don't know. Romantic dates. Cook her dinner. Like, special dinner that she likes. Bring her a bottle of wine when she's had a long day. Bring her flowers when you're thinking about her.
Lunchbox
I mean, I don't know anything about wine, so I don't. Why would I bring her up? She could tell me. Oh, yeah, Bring me my favorite bottle of wine. Guess what I would do. I would have no idea what to do. Exactly.
Bobby Bones
You've been married to her for so long, how do you not know what at least type of wine that she would like?
Lunchbox
Because I don't. I don't drink wine, so I don't know anything about.
Bobby Bones
You don't drink it. She does.
Lunchbox
No, no. But I don't know what is. What kind of wine Is what. Like, I call. There's a procheco.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
Is that right?
Bobby Bones
There's wine and there's white rind. What?
Lunchbox
Right, Wine.
Bobby Bones
White wine. What does she typically drink?
Lunchbox
She drinks both of those.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Do you. Have you ever asked what kind? Because, listen, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc.
Lunchbox
Those are all kind she likes. I've heard that one. Sauvignon Blanc.
Bobby Bones
Sauvignon Blanc. So there's all kinds of brands out there, and you can get Sauvignon Blanc in all of those brands. Okay, so you can always just get a Sauvignon Blanc and bring it home.
Lunchbox
Cool.
Bobby Bones
That's something very nice to do.
Lunchbox
All right. Yeah. I don't know anything.

Lunchbox
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Thoughtful is different than just, I married her. That is literally.
Lunchbox

Lunchbox
Listen, I literally. That is what. Listen, I am not. I don't have these grand gestures.
Bobby Bones
You've never been a romantic in any sense of the word.
Lunchbox
No. Yeah, not really.
Bobby Bones
But she married you because she loves you. So for some reason, you did something right.
Lunchbox
Right. Like, you understand, like.
Bobby Bones
And she had three babies with you, so.
Lunchbox
Correct. How would. How much more romantic do you want me to get?
Bobby Bones
I think sometime you should just totally surprise her and show up to the house with her favorite wine and flowers.
Lunchbox
Literally have no idea. Her favorite wine?
Bobby Bones
It doesn't have a wine.
Lunchbox
She doesn't have a favorite wine.
Bobby Bones
Do you understand that she might.
Lunchbox
Like, you understand. She doesn't have a favorite wine, but.
Bobby Bones
Maybe a wine that she likes.
Lunchbox
Oh, my gosh, you guys are difficult. But we do. I do take advantage sometimes. There's this flower shop that has half off Fridays, so if she ever gets flowers, it's on Fridays.
Bobby Bones
Okay, well, we're halfway there. Okay, thank you.
Lunchbox
We'll be at the grocery stores, and my kids will be like, hey, dad, we should get mom flowers. And they'll pick out a thing of flowers.
Bobby Bones
That's your kids being thoughtful.
Lunchbox
Who's the one that took them to the grocery store?
Bobby Bones
You didn't take them for that reason, though. You took them to the grocery store to get food.
Lunchbox
See, I get credit.
Bobby Bones
Okay, we're gonna get out of here.
Lunchbox
We're already leaving?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Thanks for being here.
