The Best bits of the week with Morgan, Part one.

[Morgan]

Behind the scenes with a member of the show.

What's up, everybody? Happy weekend. Lunchbox is joining me. Lunch. How are you?

[Lunchbox]

Look who's back. Back again.

[Morgan]

Are you making your own?

[Lunchbox]

Tell a friend. Lunchbox is back. Return of the Ma. I mean, Lunchbox. You guys know Return of the Mac? I was my theme song. What up?

[Morgan]

Why was that your theme song?

[Lunchbox]

Do you know what Mac is?

[Morgan]

Return of the Mac. I know what the song is, but Mac specifically, no.

[Lunchbox]

You don't know what that is? You don't know what a Mac is?

[Morgan]

I don't know, man. It's not ringing a bell at this exact moment.

[Lunchbox]

That's when you're macking on the ladies.

[Morgan]

Is it though, or is that a verb?

[Lunchbox]

No, it's like a Mack Daddy.

[Morgan]

Because in the song Return of the Mac. Is he a Mack Daddy? Is that the purpose of the song?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, he's back. Like, he's got the Mac back. He's macking.

[Morgan]

So you Daddy.

[Lunchbox]

I was Mack Daddy's back.

[Morgan]

Of all songs to sing now at this point in your life, that was the one you chose?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. It just popped in the head.

[Morgan]

Are you the Mack Daddy now?

[Lunchbox]

I mean, I could be Return of the Mac. Return of the Mac? Yeah.

[Morgan]

You're happily married.

[Lunchbox]

No, I'm saying I could be, like, if my wife left, I could be a Mac. What up, girls? Mag Daddy's back. Return. I'd walk down the street with a boombox. Return of the Mac. Return of the Mac.

[Morgan]

This is what goes through Lunchbox's head when I'm like, hey, you want to do a podcast episode with me? And he's like, I'm gonna sing.

[Lunchbox]

No, that's not. That's not what I think about. I just wake up on a Saturday, I come in here, and this is what happens. I mean, that is it. Just different things flow through my head at different times. It's amazing. It's amazing how your head just. Different things just pop in. Boom, boom. Like, different thoughts. You know what I mean? Everybody, if you think about it, it is so wild to think. Every person you walk by, every person you see is thinking about something 100% different than what you're thinking about. They have so many thoughts, and it's absolutely nothing like yours.

[Morgan]

That's true. Except if social media has taught me anything, it's. A lot of us have the same intrusive internal thoughts. And experiences in life.

[Lunchbox]

Really?

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I don't think so. I think no one has the same crap.

[Morgan]

If you're on social media enough, you will find that, like, there's always a corner of the Internet where you're like, all of these people had similar childhood experiences to me. Or I like, I love to eat shredded cheese out of a bag. I used to. That was like a big thing of mine. I thought I was really weird for that corner of the Internet corner. The Internet does it like.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no. I'm not saying things you do. I get what you're saying. Yes, Everybody has it. But I'm talking about. But as you're walk down the sidewalk, you walk by, probably. I mean, let's say you're out walking your dog. Hey, Remy, for a walk. And I don't know if Remy sounds like that, but that's how I imagine Remy.

[Morgan]

The voice that I get from Remy is not that. Both. Remy's voice is a lot more sassy.

[Lunchbox]

I'm Remy.

[Morgan]

You just sound like you elevated. A bird voice is what you sound like right now.

[Lunchbox]

Well, anyway, so you do that. And if you walk. As you're walking, Remy, the 15 people you walk by on the street, you're thinking about all opposite things. No one's thinking the same thing.

[Morgan]

I think there's some crossover in there.

[Lunchbox]

You think so?

[Morgan]

Thinking about how beautiful of a day it is, how it's good to be outside, you're enjoying the walk with your dog. If we're using that particular example, or if you're at a playground with a bunch of parents, I think they're either excited that they're at the playground with their kids, or they're stressed that they're at the playground with their kids. The same thought processes are happening. But yes, there is individualized thought in some of that.

[Lunchbox]

Because, like, I mean, one person, you walk by and they're like, oh, my God, I gotta walk the dog after I've had a terrible day. While you're thinking, oh, what a beautiful day, I get to be outside. That's true. You know what I mean? Like, it's just. It's. It's wild.

[Morgan]

It's. It's true. And let me tell you, I. I think there's a neighbor of mine who's a little suspicious of me. So there's this cute little dog that's on the corner, and she always gets so excited when we walk by. She's like, right by the. The park entrance that we walk.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah.

[Morgan]

And so she gets excited every time she sees a dog, and I always go over and say hi to her, like, through the fence.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, they think you're going to dog nap?

[Morgan]

I think so.

[Lunchbox]

You're. You're. You're. What do you call that? No, I'm not going to say.

[Morgan]

Yes, they think I'm going to dog nap.

[Lunchbox]

You know what, you know what they say when they do that?

[Morgan]

No.

[Lunchbox]

It's called grooming.

[Morgan]

Oh, But. But with dogs.

[Lunchbox]

Well, I meant, like, when you're going to kidnap someone or something.

[Morgan]

I'm, like, preparing for it.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, like, you're.

[Morgan]

I'm scoping things out, and you're building

[Lunchbox]

up, like, trust with that dog, and so the dog won't bark, and next time you.

[Morgan]

I'm just obsessed with this dog. I think it's the cutest thing ever.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, Remy, don't listen to this pod. Remy, turn it off.

[Morgan]

Remy will always be my number one obsession. But this dog, I had talked to the owner at one point, and he had rescued her. She's super cute, and she's so funny because she gets Zoomies as soon as she sees you.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, zoomies are great, man.

[Morgan]

And they're fun to watch.

[Lunchbox]

You know what's funny is I didn't realize other people called it zoomies.

[Morgan]

Really? He didn't see again, normal experiences that we all have that you think nobody else is having.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, because like, we, you know, with Chase, he's in the backyard running around. We're like, oh, he's got the Zoomies. I don't know where I heard that. Like, I never knew people called it Zoomies.

[Morgan]

Yeah, Remy gets the Zoomies after a bath, always.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, and do you get. Oh, you give him a bath because he's so tiny.

[Morgan]

Oh, yeah.

[Lunchbox]

You know what? I need to give my dog a bath, probably. I've had him for a year. I never bath him.

[Morgan]

Chase has never had a bath.

[Lunchbox]

No, he has. Like, when he stays.

[Morgan]

Never.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no. When he stays. Like when I bored him. Yeah, like, they. I do the bath thing.

[Morgan]

Okay, so he get. But. But how many times have you boarded him in the past year?

[Lunchbox]

I. Three times.

[Morgan]

He's had three bass in a year.

[Lunchbox]

Well, it'll be a year on Father's Day.

[Morgan]

He's had three bass.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, how often do you suppose about the dog?

[Morgan]

At least. At least once a month, I think. Remy probably at least. If I'm. If I'm being really on top of it, it's once a week.

[Lunchbox]

Well, see, that's different. That's ridiculous.

[Morgan]

And Remy does have more hair. And more grooming responsibility than Chase does.

[Lunchbox]

That is. Let me. That is overkill. And.

[Morgan]

But their paws get so dirty.

[Lunchbox]

No, I understand. Their paws get dirty, but they get in a pool.

[Morgan]

You don't have a pool.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, we have a little One of those Walmart pools. The blue little kid pools that you buy.

[Morgan]

How often do you change out that water?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, like every three days. Because it gets gross and, like, nasty.

[Morgan]

Okay, well, maybe at least the paws are getting. But.

[Lunchbox]

And we go to the. Should be washing, and we go to the dog bar, and they have dog pools and they have sprinklers, and everything is like. He runs through that. He gets all wet. But I don't know.

[Morgan]

They don't smell more like it. Whenever Remy gets wet. Unless she's using, like, I'm putting shampoo and conditioner on her. Oh, we don't like a dog. Yeah, well, I mean, like a wet dog smell.

[Lunchbox]

Well, I understand that, but he dries off.

[Morgan]

But it still smells like.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, man, I don't know. I just.

[Morgan]

I am shocked. I'm not. I'm not shocked because you. But I am shocked that your wife hasn't been like, no, we need to watch our dog once a month, at least.

[Lunchbox]

It's hard. I mean, you got. When you got. Let me tell you. When you got other things that are living in your house, like organisms and they're growing.

[Morgan]

Are you talking about your kids? Yeah, Your kids. Organisms.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

You made it sound like your kids are mold.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. When you got those things, like, growing, like, all over everything, and it's hard. I don't know how you would wash your dog. And maybe I could use the hose, I guess.

[Morgan]

I mean, something. Anything, honestly.

[Lunchbox]

Maybe I'll try the hose. But that water right now, it's cold. That water out of the hose is freezing.

[Morgan]

Well, yeah, that's true.

[Lunchbox]

Because it hadn't been.

[Morgan]

It hadn't been warm outside, the temperature of a hose.

[Lunchbox]

Right.

[Morgan]

But it would be a good.

[Lunchbox]

But I love hoes.

[Morgan]

It's a good responsibility opportunity with your kids, having them wash the dog.

[Lunchbox]

No, I understand, but I don't know if they could be able to handle if Chase starts going bananas. Yeah, I don't know if they can handle that. You know, they'd be like, whoa, B A N A N A S Bananas. This dog is bananas.

[Morgan]

And then everything's just more messy than what it began with.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, that was another song reference if you didn't get it.

[Morgan]

Yes, I know. Gwen Stefani's Bananas. Are you sounding a singing kick this morning?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know, I just. I kind of hitting it hard right now. You know what I mean?

[Morgan]

Oh, my gosh. I, I. Okay, I didn't see that coming. Of all the things.

[Lunchbox]

No, I didn't either, but that's what I'm saying. Maybe. Yeah. And I always see those mobile grooming things.

[Morgan]

Yeah, that would be a good.

[Lunchbox]

But I wonder how much they are. They gotta be hot dog expensive.

[Morgan]

No, Remy, I, I did for a long time. They'd come over and give her like a blowout because I. Oh, a blowout. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Fancy getting a blowout. Put the curlers in, give her a perm.

[Morgan]

No curlers, no perm. But she would get blow dried out because I have to cut her hair and their hair has to be like off of them to cut you.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah. I don't, I don't cut. We don't do haircuts.

[Morgan]

Yeah, so that's where. But do you do nail trims at least?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, when we go to the vet, they do that. I can't do it. I.

[Morgan]

You go to the vet once a month for a nail trim.

[Lunchbox]

No, no.

[Morgan]

You're supposed to trim their nails once a month also.

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Morgan]

Yes.

[Lunchbox]

No, because look, they say how you wear the nails down is taken for walks.

[Morgan]

That's true.

[Lunchbox]

And we go for. We go for those w L KS all the time.

[Morgan]

Okay, but are you walking three times a day?

[Lunchbox]

Probably at least twice a day. And then plus all the sprinting in the backyard. That is legit. Those nails are getting a work out,

[Morgan]

so you could potentially at least be getting away with like every two months.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, he's like Ty bo, but really,

[Morgan]

those nails go crazy.

[Lunchbox]

Diablo.

[Morgan]

Why another song?

[Lunchbox]

Because I said tai bow and it made me think of that.

[Morgan]

I don't know why I'm shocked right now. Like thinking about you and how riding in your car and you as a person are. This makes sense with Chase, but you're supposed to. You are supposed to cut their nails once a month.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I can't do it though. I get to like. I can't. That.

[Morgan]

That's hard. It's hard.

[Lunchbox]

They're so thick and they just. I don't like that. I know that one. That is one thing. I don't know why it gives me the heebie jeebies is the crunching of their nails.

[Morgan]

The mobile grooming does do.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I understand. But they're.

[Morgan]

And so it costs. When I, When I was doing it with Remy for a long time, just because it was easier for me to have them cut her Nails. Blow her out, give her a bath, all the good things, and get her, like, a good one. I do it once a month, and it was 80 bucks.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, wow. $80 for a haircut and nail trim.

[Morgan]

And blow out like you're going to see.

[Lunchbox]

I ain't blowing my dog. I'm not doing that.

[Morgan]

But it's good for them to have, like. That's good health maintenance, really.

[Lunchbox]

To get my. So if they blow my dog, it's like, good.

[Morgan]

Stop saying blow your dog.

[Lunchbox]

Well, you said blow it.

[Morgan]

Blow out like a blow dry. I said blow dry.

[Lunchbox]

Got it. Got it. Blow dry.

[Morgan]

That dry part is very hard. My bad is a part word.

[Sponsor/Announcer]

We need to.

[Lunchbox]

I missed that. I was like, I don't understand why blow dry?

[Morgan]

And maybe I did accidentally just say blow one time, but blow dry is very important that we include here.

[Lunchbox]

So like, all dogs, like. So if I get my wife's hair dryer and just do that, you can do that, too. I don't know if you like it. Would he like it?

[Morgan]

Some dogs do something, but that's also you just like, you socialize them. You're supposed to get them inept with keeping their body clean.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man. Well, I thought they clean themselves. I do this. Oh, that's a cat. Oh, what about when he's, like, on his tail?

[Morgan]

That means it's itching, I think. Yeah, I think that means he needs a bath.

[Lunchbox]

Maybe. Maybe those mean needs to be bathed.

[Morgan]

They do clean themselves a little bit, but not like cats.

[Lunchbox]

Cats can clean the cats.

[Morgan]

Cats, okay. Cool themselves all over.

[Lunchbox]

Cat scratch fever. Cat scratch fever.

[Morgan]

Are you just like, on one today?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. That's a song. I don't know. That's how it goes.

[Morgan]

There's a fever song, but I don't know if there's a cat scratch fever song.

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. Maybe I'll. I'll look into getting them a bath.

[Morgan]

I'm sorry, guys. I didn't realize this was going to be like a health education lesson with lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, it's not a lesson. I know that you got to bathe some things, but I mean things. I just didn't realize. Dog. You bathe your dog that often?

[Morgan]

Again, different. We have different types of dogs, so that does matter. The coat and how much maintenance.

[Lunchbox]

But I will say sometimes when I pet him, my hand gets a little dirty.

[Morgan]

That's disgusting.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, like, I mean, I know that's true.

[Morgan]

You could even use wipes like I have, I have dog specific wipes that like, if she's gone outside and I'm not giving her a bath right, then I can wipe her down. I'll wipe her paws down.

[Lunchbox]

See, I'm not. I ain't got time to be wiping paws. Like, I'm telling you those.

[Morgan]

Use it as a lesson with your kid. The organisms.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, the organisms. I ain't got time to be wiping paws, dude. We're running in and out, in and out, back and forth, up and down, around and out, drown. We don't got time to wipe paws.

[Morgan]

I need to know, do your kids at this point or are they too young to have their own responsibilities?

[Lunchbox]

Ah, no, they're old enough to have their own responsibilities.

[Morgan]

Do they have their own responsibilities?

[Lunchbox]

Well, what do you mean? Like, what do they have to do?

[Morgan]

Do they have to clean up after themselves?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah.

[Morgan]

They gotta have to be careful when like bringing dirt and stuff inside. Do they have to clean themselves up? Like, what is that process?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I don't care about them bringing dirt in. Like, if they're dirty and they come inside, who cares?

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Like, I don't, I don't mind that. Like, if they're outside playing, they got dirt on their shoes. Like, I don't make them like, oh, bang your shoe.

[Morgan]

I'm trying to understand the structure.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I mean, yeah, they got to pick up. Like, I tell them to put their. I tell them to put their shoes on the fireplace before they go to bed every night. So that way you know where they are in the morning. Because you know what they. Number one thing is, I don't know where my shoes are. Dad, dad, where are my shoes? And you know, I tell them.

[Morgan]

What do you tell them?

[Lunchbox]

I didn't wear them.

[Morgan]

Okay, so we're. Have they been putting them on the fireplace?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, like, they're baseball cleaves. They go on. Like they go on the fireplace. That way when it's practice or game day, they know where they're at. Their glove goes on the fireplace or goes in the shed.

[Morgan]

Do they help with any chores or any.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah, they mean they do. They be rocking. They be rocking everything. They like to vacuum. They love to vacuum.

[Morgan]

Is it like I'm. I don't know because I don't have kids. But did they vacuum for like five minutes or do they do the actual full vacuum?

[Lunchbox]

That they'll do the whole thing? They love it. Like, if you, if you get them going, they'll. They'll just go and. Yeah, they like to. That they they feed the dog. You know, they do that.

[Morgan]

If they feed the dog, then they would be. They'd love to clean the dog.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, they don't like to clean themselves, so I'm not sure. They'd love to clean the dog. Okay.

[Morgan]

I feel like that's an inherited trait from their father.

[Lunchbox]

Ah. You know, why don't we blame the mother? I mean, you don't know.

[Morgan]

I have met your wife enough times to know that it is not her.

[Lunchbox]

And now that, like, summer is rapidly approaching, I think we'll do more of the chores. That way they can have more, like, during the school year. It's tough, like, you know what I mean? Like, having too many chores because there ain't enough time in the day.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

But now they're going to be out there, soap and water, washing the windows and not really the windows. I don't really care about the windows as. Just as a summer, you care about. I don't really care about a lot. Be honest with you.

[Morgan]

You buy the house with the intention of having children and having it lived in, which I think is a good thing.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. I mean, I'm not. I'm not one of those ones that freaks out. Like, I know it's good to have a clean house and clean up out of yourselves, but, like, when something exciting is going on and they're playing and they're playing with some toys, and then some kid stops by and they leave them and they go outside to play, it's like, all right, cool, you know, Like, I don't care.

[Morgan]

Yeah. And I don't. Like I said, I'm not gonna yell.

[Lunchbox]

Hey, hey, Timmy, get back in here and clean this up before you go out and play with Timmy.

[Morgan]

But I just was curious, the structure of your guys's house.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah, that's the structure, how it works. Yeah.

[Morgan]

Because you. You don't live by a lot of structure yourself.

[Lunchbox]

No, I don't have structure. I don't like structure. Like, I don't like to be rigid. Like, why. Why be rigid? I'd like to be loose and flowy with the wind. You know, like Marilyn Monroe's dress. You know what I mean? Like, I like it a flow.

[Morgan]

Okay, so you're singing songs. You're Marilyn Monroe's dress, and you're loose and flowy. I got it.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, you gotta be. You gotta, you gotta. You just gotta be out there. You just gotta.

[Morgan]

You know, this is a new you.

[Lunchbox]

Let it go, let it go, let it go.

[Morgan]

On that note, we're gonna take a break.

[Lunchbox]

Me off a piece of that Kit Kat bar.

[Morgan]

I don't know if these next two

[Lunchbox]

give me a break Me off a piece of that Kit Kat bar I should go karaoke I'm good at I

[Morgan]

well, speaking of all the kids, how is life going with the kids? How's dad life going treating you?

[Lunchbox]

It's a great day to be alive. And you know what else they say.

[Morgan]

The singing is continuing.

[Lunchbox]

You know what else they say?

[Morgan]

What else?

[Lunchbox]

Don't blink. I don't know the rest of the words.

[Morgan]

Kenny Chesney song.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it's like dumb saying it's a

[Morgan]

good day to be alive with your kids, but also don't blink because they're getting older really quickly.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We are wrapping up first grade. We are wrapping up kindergarten. And it's crazy. Like, it's just crazy. We have three and a half days left. Dude, I was just saying. I was just saying. Dude, I said it's a. I had no idea he was going to be here on a Saturday. That's crazy too.

[Morgan]

Yeah. You know what?

[Lunchbox]

I don't understand why you hate that. Like, it's so fun.

[Morgan]

The only reason you guys do it is because you know that it annoys me.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, we think it's hilarious. It cracks us up like we does.

[Morgan]

Because you know that it's uncomfortable.

[Lunchbox]

No, no.

[Morgan]

And you know I'm trying to do a job and you guys just interrupt and do your own thing instead of being respectful of the environment.

[Lunchbox]

There is nothing disrespectful about a joke that we are beating till the end.

[Morgan]

[Lunchbox]

No, I wouldn't. I wouldn't care. On Sore Losers. Scuba Steves is like an Actual radio show.

[Morgan]

Exactly. But still, like, so I could edit it out. I never have, so it doesn't bother me enough of that.

[Lunchbox]

But I am shocked at how much it bothers you.

[Morgan]

It's annoying. It's not that it bothers me, it's just annoying.

[Lunchbox]

What is annoying about going what? And shaking hands on a Saturday? Like, it's like. It like, brings the mood 1.

[Morgan]

Because it's not a Saturday.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, and you're. I look at my counter. It says record on Saturday.

[Morgan]

It says record on Thursday or Friday.

[Lunchbox]

I don't know what you're talking about.

[Morgan]

And because what. What day annoying. Because you're doing it during a recording. Like the.

[Lunchbox]

The.

[Morgan]

It says in use on the outside of this reason to not interrupt, to not have things happen, to not have loud noises happen.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man, I. I am. I'm shocked. But, yes. So we have three and a half days left of school, and let me tell you, I. I don't like that they're growing up, but I love that they're growing up, but I hate that they're growing up. And I told my kindergartener, baby box two, I was like, buddy, you only got three and a half days left of kindergarten. And he goes, yeah, but then I got first grade. Not sad at all. He's not sad one bit. Like, he doesn't like, why do you

[Morgan]

want him to be sad?

[Lunchbox]

No, it's not that I want him to be sad. I just want him, like. I didn't know how he was feeling about, man, kindergarten, because going to a new school at kindergarten, going to the big school, you know, like, wow, that's a big deal. And on the first day, he was nervous, you know, he was a little bit scared. But he had big brother there, so he was good. And then as the end of the year's coming, it's like, he is like, oh, man, I'm. What's up, dude? First grades next. Let's go, bro. Whereas the older one, like, when the kindergarten was wrapping up, I would tell him, man, bud, you only got this is your last Thursday of kindergarten or whatever. And he's like, dad, can you not say that? Because it makes me sad. So I just thought maybe I would see how the other one would handle it. And he's just like, well, I got first grade. Like, it's just like a matter of fact, like, no big deal. But he doesn't realize what a big deal it is.

[Morgan]

Is it a big deal to go from kindergarten to first grade?

[Lunchbox]

Do any grade? It's crazy. Like, it is wild. Like I am perplexed that this is like full transition moment because I can still remember me going kindergarten to first grade, first grade to second grade. Because at the end of kindergarten I was moving to a new school. Like it was time to go. We had already moved houses, but we had like two months left in school when we moved. And my parents gave us the choice. Do you want to finish the school year at your school or do you want to move to the new school now? And of course we all voted stay at the school until the end of the year. So my dad would get up early and drive us on the back the roads. Now there's an IHOP over there where we used to drive on the abandoned road and over off of Duvall and cut through, go down 360 into Westover Hills and boom, to Hill Elementary. I'm glad you drop us off.

[Morgan]

Remember the exact path that you were. I do.

[Lunchbox]

See, and that's what, that's what's bananas. I would be sitting on a five gallon bucket of paint in my dad's van.

[Morgan]

That feels safe.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, it's real safe.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. That's how we rode. That's, that's how you rolled. It was crazy. There's two by fours everywhere. Nails, hammers, you know, whatever. And I still remember this stuff. Still?

[Morgan]

Yeah, it's not usual. Most people don't remember a lot of like stark memories from their childhood. They remember things when their parents tell them.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I can tell you details.

[Morgan]

That's crazy. Like your memory has always been really good though.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I guess. It's fantastic. And that's what I mean. Like, so for have my kid, my second, my second child finishing kindergarten, I still remember what it was like finishing kindergarten because I knew that I was moving school. So those kids that I was in kindergarten with, it was hasta la vista, baby. Check you later. Not gonna see you next year.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Isn't that weird?

[Morgan]

It is weird. It is weird that you'd remember all of that. I can't recall memories from like, I don't know, middle school, Pat, like and under. Unless somebody shares a story and then I can remember it through that story.

[Lunchbox]

Oh yeah.

[Morgan]

Like I can't just recall things randomly without having somebody tell me the story of it. And then I remember it.

[Lunchbox]

I still remember. It was my day to be line leader in Ms. Curry's class. Right?

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

And we were late. And since I was late, boom. Flip to the next person, line leader. I got to wait till everybody goes through it again.

[Morgan]

Okay. So do you do things Differently then as a dad because your kids might also have this superpower of memory. Like, do you make sure everything you do with them matters and all the memories matter since they might be like you and remember everything.

[Lunchbox]

No, I don't do anything on purpose. I just. But I do know that my oldest has a fantastic memory. Like he already does things that I'm just like, wow, that you remember that. I'm so impressed.

[Morgan]

Yeah. So it's going to be like even as normal, like you're still going to be a great parent but you're like on have to be double great parent. Because he's going to remember every single moment.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Like he remembers so much stuff and it's just really cool to hear him recall things. And I'm like, yes. You were only three or four years old when we did that. Like we went there or did that or did this. Oh, dad, last time we parked right there. Like that's the kind of stuff I would do. And I'm just like, that is so cool.

[Morgan]

Daddy's just like you.

[Lunchbox]

Yes. Like, I just love it. I'm glad in it. And it also like him walking home from school. It lets me know he pays attention.

[Morgan]

Yeah, he's paying attention to all the small details.

[Lunchbox]

Like he's dialed in, like locked in.

[Morgan]

Is he the one who walked home?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, the oldest one.

[Morgan]

Yeah. So he really is paying attention to everything.

[Lunchbox]

Yes. And that's why like when we ride bikes or whatever, I tell him which way do we go? Let him lead so he knows where he's going. So that way he knows where he's going.

[Morgan]

And he's how old now?

[Lunchbox]

He's seven.

[Morgan]

He's seven.

[Lunchbox]

He'll be eight in July.

[Morgan]

And then you have the middle child, he's six. Six.

[Lunchbox]

And then the four.

[Morgan]

Is the four year old about to now start kindergarten?

[Lunchbox]

Unfortunately, no.

[Morgan]

Why?

[Lunchbox]

Because his birthday's in October.

[Morgan]

Oh, so he's going to be a young.

[Lunchbox]

He'll be an old one.

[Morgan]

He'll be an old one as part of his grade rather than being a young one.

[Lunchbox]

Yes. And because the cutoff is like August, like school starts in August. Putting him in when his birthday is not two months till after the start of school. Kind of crazy. But let's be real. Dude could be in kindergarten tomorrow.

[Morgan]

He is ready.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, he is with it. Ready. Smart. Like, do they let you put them in early? You could.

[Morgan]

So you guys are.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, that's crazy to put him in two months early as. I mean, he'd be the youngest by far.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

In his class. Because here's, here's what I'm going to tell you a little secret about parents. They're idiots. There are so many idiotic parents out there. Psychotic parents. And yes, I'm talking to you people out there listening right now. Like they hold their kids back. Like, I will say that like my oldest, his birthday is July. And the like, school starts like August 3rd here in Tennessee. For some reason we started so freaking early. It's stupid. And my wife and I fought about if he was going to start school when he could or if she was going to hold him back because she thought, oh, like socially he's so quiet. So he didn't start until he was 6.

[Morgan]

So you're also including your wife in this?

[Lunchbox]

No, no, I get it if it's that close. I still don't understand it. I was a July birthday, I started on time, graduated High School 17. Let's go like boom. But okay, whatever. We argued about it for a year and a half. Okay.

[Morgan]

And that was also your oldest though. So that was the first one.

[Lunchbox]

Right. And so she's a little nervous about it. Get it? All right, fine. It's only a two week difference. There are parents like talking to parents like, oh, you know, yeah, Jack, he was born in February, but we're thinking about holding him back. What? February. That's seven months, man. The hell are we doing? People are idiots.

[Morgan]

I just don't know that it.

[Lunchbox]

Seven months.

[Morgan]

I don't think it matters until you get older is when it really impacts you of when you started.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no. It is crazy that there are 8 year olds or 7 year olds in kindergarten. That's. Whoa.

[Morgan]

Okay, so there's 7 and 8 year olds in kindergarten.

[Lunchbox]

Well, I'm saying if you hold them back, like if they are February. Yeah, they are seven and a half when they start kindergarten sometimes.

[Morgan]

Yeah. So then what? How old are they when they graduate?

[Lunchbox]

Exactly.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

And here's the thing also you parents and I, I mean, listen, I want my kids to be.

[Morgan]

Why are you parent shaming? You don't want to be parent shamed.

[Lunchbox]

I don't give a crap because I know I'm a good parent. I know I'm the best parent in the world.

[Morgan]

Like I am the best parent about your wife.

[Lunchbox]

I'm better than her, she's second best. At least I don't know my parents. Pretty dang good lunchbox.

[Morgan]

You can't say that you should be on the same thing because you're parenting together.

[Lunchbox]

I'm just going to tell you that they also. There's parents are like, oh, yeah. Holding them back so they can get an advantage in sports. Once again. Idiots. You want to know why they're idiots?

[Morgan]

Why?

[Lunchbox]

Because. Let me tell you something, parents. Let me tell you, folks of America, these stud athletes, they don't usually play kids that are younger than them. They play up. They play kids that are older than them. If they are really good, they play kids older. They don't play lower and just beat up on, you know, kids that aren't anywhere near their skill level. They play older kids. That's how it works. So holding them back for sports is stupid. And then there's this thing, it's called puberty. When you get a deep voice, you know, everybody. That's when it evens out. So you starting your kid a year late or whatever for sports. As much as I want my kid to be stud athletes, it's not going to work. Like that doesn't work. Your. Your thinking is. Is flawed. Go talk to these stud athletes.

[Morgan]

You.

[Lunchbox]

They were playing kids that are a year, two, three years older than them. They weren't playing kids that are a year and a half younger than them to make them better. Older, better. Competition makes them better. Thank you. And school ends on Thursday.

[Morgan]

That's your soapbox for today.

[Lunchbox]

No, I wasn't even a soapbox. That was just, you know.

[Morgan]

Those are your thoughts on parenting right now?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

I only had heard of people holding back their kids because of ages. Like making them be the oldest one in the class versus the youngest one in the class.

[Lunchbox]

I've had parents strips. I mean. Oh, we held them back for sports.

[Morgan]

Yeah. That's crazy. That's crazy.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, that's a lot of. And that's a lot of pressure on your kid. Like assume they're going to be a stud athlete.

[Morgan]

Yeah, Kindergarten. Like that age to be like, this is where their path is headed.

[Lunchbox]

Correct.

[Morgan]

Yeah. They might not even play sports and then they're just two years older than everybody for no reason.

[Lunchbox]

Correct.

[Morgan]

So I get it. It is weird. I mean, but to each their own. Everybody has a reason for doing things. For sure.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. But February is crazy to hold them back. February. That's nuts.

[Morgan]

It is. It's wild. I was the oldest in my class, but I was an October birthday, so I definitely got held back a year.

[Lunchbox]

No, you didn't.

[Morgan]

If I was the oldest in my class. Yeah, I did.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, because school starts.

[Morgan]

I wasn't the youngest.

[Lunchbox]

I know, Morgan, but you started on time because, listen, the deadline is usually August. So your parents weren't like, the. The cutoff date is August.

[Morgan]

Yeah. So. But what I'm saying is they could have put me in early, and I could have been the youngest, and they just kept me and I stayed. So I was one of the older ones. I was five.

[Lunchbox]

Yes, you were the older one, but you weren't. You. You didn't do it like, a year behind. You just did it when you were supposed to, because you just been put in way early.

[Morgan]

It is weird to think about, like, I feel like kindergarten. You should be able to start kindergarten in each semester, and I feel like that takes that away. Like, you could start it either in August, or you could start it January, and it'd be like a. You could complete it differently. I feel like that would take away the H problem.

[Lunchbox]

No, because so then when they finish in December, they start first grade in January.

[Morgan]

I don't know. Don't. Isn't kindergarten like half days? Because kindergarten that I went to was half days.

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Morgan]

Oh, that's changed a lot.

[Lunchbox]

Kindergarten's full day, bro. I don't know where you guys. I mean, in Kansas, how you guys did things. Glad I moved. If we were only going half day

[Morgan]

or it was like half week. Like, we went three days instead of five. There was something about it.

[Lunchbox]

Maybe you went to preschool and you did that Mother's Day out.

[Morgan]

Okay, I did go to preschool.

[Lunchbox]

I think that's probably where you're getting. Your. Your memory is a little.

[Morgan]

Yeah, it's not as good as. But there was, like, half days and stuff. So maybe it was preschool instead of. But obviously you go to kindergarten after that.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I don't know.

[Morgan]

I don't remember kindergarten now.

[Lunchbox]

You don't remember kindergarten at all?

[Morgan]

Not like you do. No.

[Lunchbox]

Like you don't remember getting put in the thinking chair.

[Morgan]

I don't think we had a thinking chair.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, we had a thinking chair. Like, if you're making bad, like, choices,

[Morgan]

you have to go think in the chair.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, you gotta go think in the chair.

[Morgan]

So you have a timeout.

[Lunchbox]

Yes. And let me tell you, we had a student teacher named Ms. Hunter. I don't know what happened to her. I'd loved. I mean, here, I'll tell you a great story about Ms. Hunter. Okay? So Ms. Hunter, she was. She had these long fingernails, and she would tap. And so she was doing her student teaching or whatever. And so she was in my kindergarten class, Ms. Curry. And there was one time she was like, all right, everybody clean up the blocks. And I was the one that sat Right next to the rocking chair that day. And instead of helping clean up, I just sit down. She goes, all right, we're going to try that again. And I sat right back down again. She goes, all right, I'm going to give everybody one more chance to clean up all the blocks. Let's try it again. And I sat right back down. And I had to go to the thinking chair. Never forget it. And I'm like, dang, I almost went the whole year without the thinking chair. That's crazy.

[Morgan]

And why wouldn't you just clean up the boxes?

[Lunchbox]

The big blocks? They were big blocks, wooden blocks. Because I was right next to where my seat was. So I was like, I'll just be the first one to sit down. Don't ask me. I don't know. I mean, it's just like, all right, cool.

[Morgan]

Remember everything else. So I was just hoping you'd remember.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, that's what I'm saying. That's why it's like I was right there by my seat, and I got to sit right next to the rocking chair where the teacher sat on the carpet. I was like, I'm getting there. Boom. So I did the thinking chair. You know, I finished kindergarten. You know, Ms. Hunter goes to do whatever she's gonna do in her life. And the next year I started Summit and I have Ms. Anderson.

[Morgan]

Right, summit. Is that a different school?

[Sponsor/Announcer]

School.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Summit elementary. Soaring Eagles. Eagles of Excellence.

[Morgan]

Definitely thought you were about to sing a high school musical song.

[Lunchbox]

Nope. I was singing our school song. Thank you.

[Morgan]

We're flying. That's High School Musical.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, I don't know those.

[Morgan]

That's what you started sounding like.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, gotcha. Anyway, so then I have Ms. Anderson, and all the first grade classes are in one little. There's a big room in the middle, and then they're all in a. In there. It's like a square. Okay, who's across the way? Your teacher, Ms. Hunter. So she was a student teacher at my old school for my kindergarten. And boom, she was a first grade teacher where I moved to that school. How bananas is that?

[Morgan]

No, if it's that. Bananas.

[Lunchbox]

What do you mean?

[Morgan]

I mean, it's cool. It's cool that she was your student teacher then at your new school.

[Lunchbox]

Just imagine, okay, just imagine you being a five year old, right? You're a five year old and you have this teacher for a few, like three, six weeks, whatever.

[Morgan]

If you liked the teacher, it'd probably make you really happy. Did you like her as a teacher then? Yeah. You were probably excited when you saw

[Lunchbox]

her, and it was so crazy. I didn't have her as a teacher, but she was in there and like, on, like, holidays or whatever, whenever she was giving her class presents, I got to go over there and she'd give me a present. She'd call me to her class.

[Morgan]

I loved her. She gave you free stuff.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, it is so wild.

[Morgan]

Oh, my gosh, that's funny. I mean. Yeah, I don't know about Bananas. Like, you really hyped it up.

[Lunchbox]

Is that out of all the schools,

[Morgan]

all the schools in all the world

[Lunchbox]

that we both moved, I mean, that's. That's crazy.

[Morgan]

Bananas.

[Lunchbox]

It's B A N A N A S Bananas. Yeah, we went back to that song. You know what I mean?

[Morgan]

Okay, well, you're going to take a break after that.

[Lunchbox]

You know. You know what we've been doing?

[Morgan]

What?

[Lunchbox]

We've been free falling.

[Morgan]

Why are you all of a sudden in a music mood? What's going on?

[Lunchbox]

No idea. It's just funny. Since I started, I'm just going to beat it to death,

[Morgan]

like every joke you do.

[Lunchbox]

So.

[Morgan]

Yeah, that tracks.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. You know, and you know what's crazy is, like, school ends and next weekend, I've talked to so many families that they're going to have their toes in their water. In the sand.

[Morgan]

But in the sand, you can just say, but.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, but in the sand. Okay.

[Morgan]

Instead of a plank.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I was bleeping it.

[Morgan]

I know, but you can just say butt in the sand.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I never heard it say, but it doesn't.

[Morgan]

But you can't use another word for it.

[Lunchbox]

I know, but. Yeah. I've talked to so many families that are doing that, and I'm like, oh, that must be nice.

[Morgan]

But you won't be.

[Lunchbox]

No. Yeah, Our neighbor's like, oh, we're going to the beach. And I'm just gonna be like, hey, waiter, bring me two pina coladas.

[Morgan]

You just.

[Lunchbox]

I need one for each hand.

[Morgan]

All right, we're going to take a break. We'll be right back.

All right, so things are a little different this weekend. We're changing things up. I was told we're doing best bits now in two parts, so we're gonna answer questions now.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, boy. I got a question.

[Morgan]

What's your question?

[Lunchbox]

What are the questions? Got her. I'm so witty on a Saturday.

[Morgan]

You are on one. What is next for Lunchbox in his career?

[Lunchbox]

Huh?

[Morgan]

They want to know if you have any plans to do anything else. Is there any opportunities you're pursuing?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I am pursuing an opportunity. For the next month, the World cup starts. So I did apply for a job where I have to watch every World cup game and I get paid $50,000.

[Morgan]

Who's doing this job?

[Lunchbox]

Fox Sports.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

And I would be in New York, sitting in a box in Times Square, and people could watch me watch the World Cup.

[Morgan]

And that's for a whole month.

[Lunchbox]

A whole month.

[Morgan]

Are you going to get off of work?

[Lunchbox]

I know I'd assume I would work from the studio in New York, and then I would go out there to watch the games, like, once the game starts.

[Morgan]

So did you only just have to be in the box when the games are on?

[Lunchbox]

Only when the game's on. I don't live in the box. I don't live in the box. Like, I don't sleep in the box.

[Morgan]

Social experiment to just live in the box in Times Square.

[Lunchbox]

That would be tough.

[Morgan]

Yeah, it would be tough.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, there'd have to be security all the time just watching you. Yeah.

[Morgan]

People are watching you sleep and go to the bathroom.

[Lunchbox]

So, yes, I did. I. I went on the, you know, all the website and did all the information, and so hopefully. I mean, I have no idea how they pick, but did you do it

[Morgan]

because you love soccer, because you want to win $50,000?

[Lunchbox]

Because I love soccer. And I thought it was just a cool, like. Like, it sounded like a cool deal.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. And so I was like, you know what? I'll try that.

[Morgan]

How many games are there in the world? Soccer.

[Lunchbox]

I think I added it up. And it's like 1500 hours of watching soccer.

[Morgan]

How long is one game?

[Lunchbox]

About two hours.

[Morgan]

Okay. This feels pretty standard for a professional sport game.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

I don't know why I thought they were, like, three or four hours long.

[Lunchbox]

But. But if they, like, if. When they get to the knockout stage and if you go into, like, extra time, I mean, it could be three hours.

[Morgan]

Yeah, those are pretty long.

[Lunchbox]

It's a lot.

[Morgan]

And aren't they over, like, night sometimes? Because they're in different countries.

[Lunchbox]

No. Well, it's going to be Mexico, United

[Morgan]

States, Canada are the three you'd have to watch.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, well, that's the. That's where the World cup is taking place. It's in. We're hosting as three nations.

[Morgan]

Oh, yeah. Interesting. Is it because we're all on the same continent?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I think so. I think they're trying to make it

[Morgan]

cool and do all of three.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Are you gonna. If you don't get this gig, are you gonna try and go to one of the games?

[Lunchbox]

Here's the problem. They are so freaking expensive, the tickets. So freaking expensive. And, like, if you want to get tickets to, like, that are actually affordable, you are going to see Saudi Arabia versus Ubestan. Who gives a crap?

[Morgan]

So to go watch the United States play.

[Lunchbox]

Oh.

[Morgan]

How much money is one ticket?

[Lunchbox]

Probably $3,000.

[Morgan]

So is. I mean, I feel like that's. Yes, people are going super bowl territory. People goes one game versus soccer is multiple games.

[Lunchbox]

Yes, but you would there youe're guaranteed

[Morgan]

three games if you get a ticket. No, no, you're only guaranteed one game.

[Lunchbox]

Right, but I'm saying the team so you could pick from one of the three games. The USA has got it.

[Morgan]

And then that's wild that that's how much the tickets are.

[Lunchbox]

It's stupid.

[Morgan]

Are they playing here at all in Nashville? Is there any games?

[Lunchbox]

No, there's not a Nashville.

[Morgan]

I didn't know with having the new soccer stadium.

[Lunchbox]

No, it's not big enough. They're in football stadiums, like. Oh, yeah. So they're in Atlanta.

[Morgan]

They're Atlanta, for one.

[Lunchbox]

They're in Houston. They're in Dallas, I believe. I mean, they're so big mamas. They are big dogs.

[Morgan]

So not just the ticket. You'd have to fly. Correct driver.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, like. And if I want to. If I want to just go see a World cup game, I could drive to Atlanta. But like I said, do I really want to see Saudi Arabia vs the Little Sisters of the poor? Not really.

[Morgan]

Why is that the name? Why did you call it that?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. I was just saying, like, some country I've never heard of, like, you know what I mean? Like, I'd like to see, like, Spain or France or England.

[Morgan]

Someone at least a big country.

[Lunchbox]

A big country that I think is, like, good and has a chance to win the World Cup. Would be nice to see instead of watching two teams that are just going to get their butts.

[Morgan]

What if you caught the underdog, though?

[Lunchbox]

I could catch an underdog, you know,

[Morgan]

and then you watch the team that wins and you just.

[Lunchbox]

That's true.

[Morgan]

Didn't know.

[Lunchbox]

I know.

[Morgan]

Okay, so that's what's next in your career.

[Lunchbox]

That's what's next in my career. We'll see what happens.

[Morgan]

We're focused on soccer right now. How much longer do you think you'll do the Sore Losers for?

[Lunchbox]

Probably another week or two. Yeah. If you just.

[Morgan]

Quitting.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. And then we're quitting. So if you want to just, you know, please give us a listen before we lose, you know, all our sponsors and we go off air. Please download a Sore Losers episode. It's really. I mean, it's fun, it's good. It's good for you. It's good for your heart and. Yeah. So we probably got about a couple more weeks and then it'll be done.

[Morgan]

Do you. If you ever were to leave the show for any reason, do you think you'd keep doing Sore Losers or do you think you'd stop doing everything?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I have no idea. I mean, it depends where I go. I mean, you can't. If I don't work for this company and Ray still works here, I don't think we can do the pod.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

You know how that.

[Morgan]

Yeah. I just didn't know if you'd ever thought about that as a potential road.

[Lunchbox]

No, I haven't thought about. I don't think about a lot of things.

[Morgan]

Well, I know based on the last question, when I said, what are you doing next in your career?

[Lunchbox]

I mean, literally, I don't think about, like, past today. I'm like, oh, you know, Dave, we got this. Cool. All right, let's roll. And then whatever tomorrow brings. Tomorrow brings.

[Morgan]

You're living day by day.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I don't. I don't like to look ahead, guys. Like, that's. The future is not guaranteed. You know what I mean?

[Morgan]

Do you feel the same way about the future that you do about death?

[Lunchbox]

I don't talk about it.

[Morgan]

I know.

[Lunchbox]

So I don't talk about it.

[Morgan]

I know you don't talk about the D word, but does the future feel similar for you?

[Lunchbox]

Like the same thing? I don't know. I don't. No, no, no. Totally different.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Totally different.

[Morgan]

I know, because the way you're acting kind of gives that.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no, no. I don't mind the future. I mean, I think about, like, I, like, literally, I just don't give much thought to it. I'm just like, ah, whatever. Like, I'm not stressed about that.

[Morgan]

Whereas when I say the D word, it gives you, like, instant anxiety.

[Lunchbox]

Instant anxiety. We don't talk about it. We do not talk about it. No.

[Morgan]

When is the next collaboration video? I missed them. That's from Tracy.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man. I don't know. Morgan hadn't been giving me these TikTok trends. I tell her, find a TikTok trend or make up one and we can do something.

[Morgan]

But see, Tracy, do you hear that? That's on me.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, you're the social media person. Listen. I don't do much social media. I'm not sitting there scrolling, so I don't know what people are talking about or what's going on. Like, when people. When we bring up, like, oh, did you see this? I'm like, nah, I didn't see that. I don't know. I didn't see that.

[Morgan]

I just don't have as much mental capacity as I used to to do a lot of that stuff. Honestly, not. I love doing the videos when we do them. They're always funny. Like, we did one for I Heart Country. That was easy and it was fun. But I just. It's like I'm not on social media as much as I used to. I try not to be because it hurts my. My brain.

[Lunchbox]

Guys, I've tried to listen. Listen. I mean, I don't want to say that I'm a certified counselor, but I am pretty much a certified counselor. I have had to have sit down. Like, Morgan hadn't even paid me. I should be charging for these sessions. But I tried to explain to her the negativities of social media and how she needs to limit her time on social media and how her life will be better without social media. And I've had to do this numerous. And maybe I'm finally starting to crack that little social media shell that she likes to be in because I tell her, morgan, put the phone down. She's like, but the comments are being mean to me. And I tell her, morgan, put the phone down. Who gives a crap about what someone says on the gram or someone says on the tic tac? We don't care.

[Morgan]

The Tic tac.

[Lunchbox]

We don't give a crap.

[Morgan]

No. Well, what I.

[Lunchbox]

Am I right? Am I trying? Do I counsel you?

[Morgan]

We have had conversations multiple.

[Lunchbox]

A handful, Another one. A handful, Another one.

[Morgan]

But what you have failed to realize in all of those conversations is it's literally my job.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no, no.

[Morgan]

I have to be on social media for my job.

[Lunchbox]

I understand. It's your job. It's your job to post for the show. That is it. Then you can walk away. You post it for the show and guess what? Turn it off. You don't. Who cares about the comments? Let people fight in the comments.

[Morgan]

No, you can't supposed to engage us. Literally my whole job. That is a digital.

[Lunchbox]

No, no. Your job is not to comment on the Buy Bone show post. Nowhere in your. Your job description says that. It says you.

[Morgan]

Oh, yes, it does. It says you have to engage and do everything that the. Whatever is happening within those platforms, you have to evolve with and change with, which includes engagement. The only way you get engagement.

[Lunchbox]

But you don't need to engage. Like I'm telling you, you can go. This is what you can do. You post it and then you set one day a week, Wednesday, go look at the comments and comment back to people. That's it. You don't need to be commenting every hour on the posts. You don't need to reply every hour. It's just not. It's not logical.

[Morgan]

It isn't logical. But it is my job.

[Lunchbox]

But your job is not to do it every hour. I'm saying you don't have to reply to.

[Morgan]

I've gotten a lot better. I don't do it every hour. But I do check in on it a few times. Times a day. Because that is.

[Lunchbox]

That's what I'm saying. That's too many times too many.

[Morgan]

But that is my job.

[Lunchbox]

You can do it one time a day if that's what you're gonna say. But one time a day. There's no need.

[Morgan]

This is what he tells me, guys. This is what happens.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, this is what happens. And I'm absolutely right.

[Morgan]

Listeners love when they hear back from the show.

[Lunchbox]

Exactly. But once a day. That you don't need to do it right away. It's not like you. They're not dying. So you don't need to respond right away. You can set a time. 3 o' clock is when I'm gonna check the Buy Bone show accounts. I'll reply to some comments. Boom, off till the next day, 3 o', clock, reply to some comments. That's it. One time. One time a day.

[Morgan]

And it's also a comment's not just mean to me. It's mean to everybody.

[Lunchbox]

But who gives a crap?

[Morgan]

I just don't like see. I don't like seeing negative.

[Lunchbox]

That's why you don't look at it. That's why you don't look at it. Is that easy?

[Morgan]

I wish it were that easy.

[Lunchbox]

Take it easy.

[Morgan]

Did you ever get vehicle?

[Lunchbox]

No, not Yet.

[Morgan]

Why?

[Lunchbox]

I'm just chilling, man.

[Morgan]

Why are you just chilling? And do you guys at least have one vehicle? Because last everybody heard, oh, yeah, we

[Lunchbox]

still got a vehicle. You know, we got one vehicle. Yeah, we're good.

[Morgan]

Is that the one that got totaled?

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no, that's gone. That's still. You know, we're working on that.

[Morgan]

So you got a new car?

[Lunchbox]

No, no, my wife's leasing. My. My wife leases. She's good.

[Morgan]

So she. She did get a new car to operate. It's just. You didn't buy it, correct?

[Lunchbox]

Deciding if she wants to buy it.

[Morgan]

I feel like she's been deciding for a while.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah, that's what. That's what women do. I mean, that's what my wife does. Sorry. Indecisive.

[Morgan]

She's trying to decide on what she wants.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, she's very indecisive. You go to dinner with her, she'll change her time, change her mind four times. By the time the waiter says, I'll be back in one minute on what she's gonna order.

[Morgan]

Okay, but you also still haven't purchased a new car. Why?

[Lunchbox]

I just see that Ultima, and I see so much potential with it.

[Morgan]

Okay, seriously.

[Lunchbox]

No, seriously.

[Morgan]

That car is not moving.

[Lunchbox]

Well, I know. No, right now it's not.

[Morgan]

That might probably be restored to an old vintage car at this point, but

[Lunchbox]

what if someone says, hey, you know what? I want to fix that car for you?

[Morgan]

I'm like, okay, it's such an old car. Lunchbox. It's like. It's like old parts are hard to come by when it gets to a certain point.

[Lunchbox]

But what if they just, you know, they get all new parts for it?

[Morgan]

They don't necessarily even make.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, they do. They do. It's not that old. Let's relax. It's not a 1930 car.

[Morgan]

It's a 2000 car.

[Lunchbox]

It's.05.

[Morgan]

Yeah. You know how much. How much time has passed since that car?

[Lunchbox]

Tell me. How many?

[Morgan]

20. 21 years, I was gonna say.

[Lunchbox]

Wow. Yes. Yeah. Oh, man. Math major. That's why she only went to kindergarten. Half days.

[Morgan]

I admittedly suck at math, and I've always said that, but. No, I thought it was 2025. I forgot. It's 2026.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it's 2026.

[Morgan]

21 years is how long.

[Lunchbox]

Party like it's 1999. Party. We're gonna party like it's 1999.

[Morgan]

Anyways, I don't think they make a lot of the parts anymore for that car. They change those Every five years or

[Lunchbox]

so, Every time I walk by the Altima, you know what it says to me?

[Morgan]

What does it say to you?

[Lunchbox]

I got knocked down But I'm gonna get up again Gonna get up again. Cause I never get. Keep me down. I get knocked down.

[Morgan]

I actually don't even. I didn't even think you had this much music library in your head.

[Lunchbox]

These are random songs that pop into my head.

[Morgan]

Yeah. I'm singing that. It's not. I know you know that, too. But also, didn't you get it taken away? You don't even have it anymore.

[Lunchbox]

I do.

[Morgan]

You're telling me it's still sitting on the street?

[Lunchbox]

Yep. Come on by. Pay her a visit.

[Morgan]

Why?

[Lunchbox]

Because. What did I just say? Did you hear the answer? Did you, like, rewind the tape?

[Morgan]

I heard it. Why are you so reluctant to get a new car?

[Lunchbox]

Let's rewind it. Hold on. I just really think that someone may, you know, like, say, hey, I want to fix that for you.

[Morgan]

They're not going to. There's nobody out there that's going to fix that car.

[Lunchbox]

Maybe one of my neighbors will get tired of it and want to fix it.

[Morgan]

They won't want to fix it. They're just going to call the city on you. They're going to get it towed away,

[Lunchbox]

and that could happen.

[Morgan]

Yeah. So why are you so reluctant to get it?

[Lunchbox]

Because I love it. I mean, it's just such an emotional car. This is the first car I ever paid off.

[Morgan]

I tried to get an answer, but it's not coming out a real answer.

[Lunchbox]

I just told you the real answer.

[Morgan]

What does bedtime look like with three kids?

[Lunchbox]

Have you ever seen chaos? It's just like, one goes left, one goes right, one jumps out the window. That's exactly what bedtime is. I mean, they all sleep in the same room. So trying to get them to bed, you know, we fight it. We got to brush teeth. I don't want to brush teeth. Okay, we get in the room. Did you go potty? Oh, I forgot to go potty. And one likes to save his poop until we are time for bed. He's like, finally. Oh, I gotta poop. Really? We've been doing stuff all day. You could have pooped earlier. So. All right. And then we read stories, and we do hopefully three to four stories a night. So about 30 minutes of reading, and then we say, night, night. And there's some nights that you get out of there, and they're like, can I get one more hug and kiss? And you're like, of course you can.

[Morgan]

This is a great description of how that all goes. Is it a team effort between you and your wife or do you guys trade off?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, no, no. Team effort. Team effort. And the dog comes down there and starts trying to wrestle. And it's crazy. Like, when it's bedtime for the kids, the dog starts getting nuts getting the zoomies in their room and wanting to play. And I'm like, bro, we're putting them to bed. Can you. We're not trying to get them hyped up. And the kids want to play soccer in their room. They get a soccer ball and they start kicking it. And I'm like, guys, we're done with the balls. We're done with the ball.

[Morgan]

Still in the same room together.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. If you rewind the tape and listen to what I was saying, I said we're all in the same room. We go down.

[Morgan]

Why are they all in the same room still together?

[Lunchbox]

Why not?

[Morgan]

I just didn't know if that was, like, a choice that they all wanted or.

[Lunchbox]

Because they love it. Because it's awesome.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

It is so cool.

[Morgan]

Do you think they'll always love it or do you think there'll be a time where.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, there's eventually going to be a time where they are like, all right, I need my space face. But we started out with the first two when they were in cribs and they freaking loved it. And when we had the third one, they're like, when it. When. When is he moving into our room? When's he going to be in our room? When's he going to be in our room? Now he's in their room. And guess what? They love it.

[Morgan]

I predict that they're going to join fraternities because they're going to love having full blown sleepovers all the time.

[Lunchbox]

My middle one, maybe. I don't know about the oldest, but the. The middle and youngest, they'll be ready to party. They're going to be nuts.

[Morgan]

But it's like you go into a fraternity house and they're all bunk beds everywhere. So that's going to be their life forever.

[Lunchbox]

I hope not. That's a lot of money. They're going to pay.

[Morgan]

Yeah. I don't know. Depends what school you go to. Fraternities don't cost as much money, depending on if it's a smaller school.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, really? I don't know. I feel like it's. It has to be money everywhere, but, yeah, who knows? I mean, who knows if they'll even get into college? I Mean, we'll see.

[Morgan]

That's fair.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

But just based on that, if they just keep sleeping together, do you think they'll. I don't know. I feel like once they get, like, middle school, high school, they start to probably be like, no, I want my space, probably.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, because they're gonna start growing. They're gonna start growing and.

[Morgan]

Are they bunk beds? Are they all individual beds?

[Lunchbox]

They're all individual beds. They're. They're like.

[Morgan]

They're bedtime stories with Adam Sandler.

[Lunchbox]

But hold on. They're all loft beds, so they have stairs up to them. So one is a bunk bed. There's a bed on the. Underneath it, the youngest. So that way, when you have people spend the night, they have a mattress down there to sleep on.

[Morgan]

Okay, so one is a bunk bed, but then there's two others in the room.

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Morgan]

Individual.

[Lunchbox]

And that's all they have in their room. Because there's no room for anything else. Like, they are in there. The beds all, like, one's feet and head touch. Like, because it's like. It's like a U shape is the beds. So the two and then the youngest ones in the middle. And his bed touches both sides. Like, both ends of his bed touch one side.

[Morgan]

You know what? They're gonna love camp. They're gonna love going to camp.

[Lunchbox]

Who said they're going to camp?

[Morgan]

Eventually, when they go to camp.

[Lunchbox]

Who said they're going to camp?

[Morgan]

You don't. You don't think they'll go to camp? I feel like they'd love camp.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, I understand. I think every kid would love camp. Guess what I would have loved as a kid? Camp.

[Morgan]

Did you not go to camp?

[Lunchbox]

I went to camp one time.

[Morgan]

Dang.

Really?

[Lunchbox]

One week, summer before ninth grade year. Camp Flaming Arrow. That was it. Me, A.J. russell Forest. We all went to Camp Flaming Arrow.

[Morgan]

All right, so are you going to hold them back from going to camp because you only got to go to one.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. I mean, see, that's the hard part. I struggle with that. That's what I don't want them to be, like, thinking they get everything.

[Morgan]

Yeah. But also, going to camp is good for them. It's good socialization, and they learn skills of different.

[Lunchbox]

I understand that.

[Morgan]

There's camp. There's.

[Lunchbox]

We're not going to space camp.

[Morgan]

Space camp, School. There's camp where you just do activities all day.

[Lunchbox]

Like, that's what I'm saying. But then that means they're. They're gone for a week during the summer.

[Morgan]

Is that more of It. You don't want to let them go?

[Lunchbox]

Well, both. No, no, no. I. I mean, it's cool, but I just don't want to. And then do you send them all to the same camp, or do you send them separate weeks so they don't have to rely on each other, you know? How do you do? I mean, I don't know, but, yeah, we didn't go to camp, so. I mean, like, my brother and sister, they never went to camp. Never. Not once.

[Morgan]

That's crazy. I mean, I don't know that I went to a whole bunch. I think I might have went to three or four.

[Lunchbox]

But you know why? Because it cost money. Money. I still am shocked. My parents sent me to camp, but my mom said I wore her down, that my buddy AJ went all the time, and I talked about it all the time, and she was finally, like,

[Morgan]

oh, my gosh, send him away.

[Lunchbox]

And so, yeah, it was the summer before ninth grade year. We went to Camp Flaming Arrow. And, you know, here's a crazy story. So there's this guy, Ryan Anawadi. He was in our cabin at Camp Flaming Arrow. Never seen the kid before in my life. And cool, dude. Like, what up? And we were friends at camp, you know what I mean, with the crew. And then we leave, you know, I'll see you later. And that was it. And then I was running cross country in high school, and I ran, you know, one morning I come into the locker room and. Who's there? Ryan Annawadi. I'm like, dude, can't flame here. What up, bro?

[Morgan]

Did he remember you also?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Was that bananas?

[Lunchbox]

That was bananas. You know why? Because he was sitting on the toilet when I walked in.

[Morgan]

That does make that a little bit more bananas than the last one.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Morgan]

That feels weird.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Crazy, right?

[Morgan]

Thanks for the camp story.

[Lunchbox]

That's wild, right?

[Morgan]

It is wild. But I also. The reason I think they'll love camp is because they're doing sleepovers all the time. Then they get sleepovers at camp, too.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. And they always, like, whenever friends come over, they just automatically sleep over. Sleep over. They just start chanting it. They want to spend the night every time.

[Morgan]

So you're. Are you a fan of sleepovers?

[Lunchbox]

I'm all down. I'm down.

[Morgan]

As long as they're. What about going to other people?

[Lunchbox]

I don't care. Go.

[Morgan]

Even after. Even after he walked himself out?

[Lunchbox]

Why not? All right, like, I don't understand. Like, we're not.

[Morgan]

We're not going on another tangent.

[Lunchbox]

I'm going to go On a little tangent here, we have to go about these like Eddie and Amy being little idiots. Oh, I can't let my kids sleep over. The world's too weird. What the heck?

[Morgan]

That's a new voice. I haven't heard that one before.

[Lunchbox]

That's their complaining voice. I'm so scared.

[Morgan]

Okay, well now let's turn into Nico Jackson a little.

[Lunchbox]

I can't let my kid go to a sleepover. Stop. Stop being idiots. Like, come on. People like you did it as a kid. It's the most amazing feeling in the world is spending the night at a friend's house.

[Morgan]

I did love a sleepover.

[Lunchbox]

Like, I can't. I just don't understand how we are sissifying everything.

[Morgan]

Sis. Is that your word for sissing? Yes, but it's the verb version.

[Lunchbox]

Sissifying. Yes, we are sissifying everything.

[Morgan]

Sissifying everything. Got it.

[Lunchbox]

It's just, it's nuts to me and I'm probably in the minority, but goodness gracious, I can't let over anywhere. Come on, man. Why are you depriving your children of everything?

[Morgan]

Listen, I see it from, I can see it from both perspectives.

[Lunchbox]

Where. What can you see from the other perspective?

[Morgan]

Listen, I loved sleepovers. Thank you. It was so much fun.

[Lunchbox]

So how has it changed? It hasn't.

[Morgan]

I think it's the same thing. People are a little bit more unwell than they used to be.

[Lunchbox]

Wrong.

[Morgan]

You talk about social media and all of that like it's made an impact for sure on people.

[Lunchbox]

Let me tell you what has changed. I'll tell you what has changed.

[Morgan]

I know you always say you're like, well, we have more access, we see everything and we have more information than we ever have. I know that that's your argument, you know. Was that your argument?

[Lunchbox]

My argument?

[Morgan]

It was.

[Lunchbox]

Your argument is it has always been crazy out there, but now the 24 hour news cycle has you so freaking paranoid. Get off of it. Stop looking at it. The world is better than it's ever been in the history of the world right now.

[Morgan]

That's a hot take.

[Lunchbox]

It's so true. It is 100% true.

[Morgan]

OK, I don't know that it is,

[Lunchbox]

but no, there has always been crazies out there.

[Morgan]

I do agree with that.

[Lunchbox]

It's always been there. Ted Bundy, guess what? He was around before the Internet. He's still out there.

[Morgan]

That's true. That, that is true. We do have more exposure. We're seeing things more. But because of that exposure, I think there's a lot more people that are paranoia.

[Lunchbox]

That's what I mean.

[Morgan]

I hear you. Stop. But because of that. So there is a cause for concern with kids more often than there used to be. And because of social media, it plays a new role when there are sleepovers. We didn't have social media. We weren't getting on things. We weren't being exposed to stuff without parents being around. Like, it was just a different time. So I. I get it. Both sides. I get both sides. And I do agree. I had the most fun I had when I was a kid. I was. There were sleepovers. I. We had blasts. We'd stay up all night playing video games, or we'd hang out and tell ghost stories to each other. It was fun.

[Lunchbox]

Slumber parties were the shizniz.

[Morgan]

They are. But the world is also a little bit different than it used to be.

[Lunchbox]

No, it's not.

[Morgan]

It is.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my God.

[Morgan]

Even though you don't.

I know.

I knew that was gonna be your argument. I knew you. I knew you. All right.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Because I'm so smart. Like, I try to.

[Morgan]

Like, I'm so smart.

[Lunchbox]

I'm so much smarter than the average human. That's the problem. Like, I am. I am so much smarter than the average human that it just drives people nuts. And like, if you are paranoid, guess what? You're turning your kid into a paranoid little sissy. Stop it.

[Morgan]

To be.

[Lunchbox]

No, I said what you're turning him into is a paranoid little sissy. You gotta quit being so freaking paranoid, people. You lived. You did great. So now let your kid experience the things you experience. Come on.

[Morgan]

How about this? Two things can be true, and they are both true.

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Morgan]

Yes.

[Lunchbox]

I feel. I disagree.

[Morgan]

Okay, we can agree. Disagree to disagree. I mean, agree to disagree.

[Lunchbox]

You gotta let them fly, man.

[Morgan]

I agree. I agree with that. But I do see a point of safety and security and concern. Now then, I mean, I would sing

[Lunchbox]

an R. Kelly song right here, but I can't.

[Morgan]

Yeah, you can. Exactly.

[Lunchbox]

You gotta believe your kids are different now. No. Joy to the world.

[Morgan]

Get out of here.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.
