Lunchbox
Come on, Bobby. Transmitting across America. Let's go.
Bobby Bones
Hey, I hope you had a great weekend. Welcome to Monday Show Morning Studio Morning.
Lunchbox
If they told you your body's gonna give out on this date at this age, would you want to know?
Amy
I'm tempted to know.
Lunchbox
You can't change it, though. You can't make different decisions.
Amy
I understand.
Lunchbox
Yeah. You can't wish for another wish with a genie.
Amy
Yeah, I don't want to know.
Lunchbox
I think most people would feel that way. And I think it's different than asking a psychic, when am I gonna die? And they go 11 days because something bad's gonna. This is like. I'll read you the story here from Prevention. Scientists have just unveiled a cutting edge tool that figures out your biological age with up to 90% accuracy. Using your medical history, lab work, even looking at factors on how fast you walk, how you walk.
Amy
Oh, no.
Lunchbox
Unlike other tests, the Health Octo tool also looks at and evaluates multiple organ systems and how they're aging and how they're aging together. It is a full body report card. The data uses thousands and thousands of pieces of basically what's happening on the inside of your body and the outside of your body and how your body's moving to a 90% accuracy to say when your body's Going to give out. So the question is, would you want this test?
Amy
I mean, I guess I. It's not. It's not. Yeah, it's not 190.
Lunchbox
Okay, watch this.
Bobby Bones
Watch.
Eddie
But also high number.
Bobby Bones
Pick a number.
Lunchbox
One through ten. Five, four, you're dead. So you only had a 10 chance to get it right.
Amy
I almost picked four.
Lunchbox
I know you always four.
Amy
And I was like, he's not gonna pick four.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Just died right there.
Amy
Okay, well, yeah, I just think I want that information because I would like to know where my organs are, what's going on with my body. So that, that would be good. And then if I get when I'm gonna die, I just can't focus on that because I'm like, if you tell me that it's not accurate. But also you're saying you can't change it because I think you can.
Lunchbox
But again, if it's like your organ systems, you can change, but think of change as one and a half percent. If they say you're dying in 2036, you ain't making it to 2052.
Amy
Right.
Lunchbox
Like the small changes that you're going to make because genetic disposition is such a massive part of how long we live, what shape we are, the abilities we have physically. So you can make small modifications that do modify. Yeah. But you ain't going to change it by 5, 7, 10 years.
Amy
I mean, the airplane goes 2 degrees off course, it's going to end up in a very different location.
Lunchbox
You know, you ain't an airplane. No. And you ain't traveling that many miles.
Amy
I'm just saying a little two degree shift in my.
Bobby Bones
And you'll.
Lunchbox
And you'll have two degrees. Degrees longer.
Amy
Okay, I guess I. I guess now I want to know. I. I want to know what's going on with me.
Lunchbox
She wants to know. Do you?
Scuba Steve
Not a chance in this world. I already am freaked out about dying as it is. And I don't want to have any clue because.
Eddie
Oh, tell me, tell me so I can know we already.
Lunchbox
You did a death clock.
Eddie
72. I'm gonna die at 72 years old.
Scuba Steve
Wait.
Lunchbox
Go skydiving now then.
Eddie
You want to ride a bull named Fu Manchu?
Lunchbox
Go skydiving now then, if that's what you want.
Eddie
I already did it.
Lunchbox
Okay, there you go. But you're saying things because Eddie's life clock.
Eddie
Oh no.
Lunchbox
He dies March 19th, 2051. He has 9,439 days left.
Eddie
You have it to the day. March 19th.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Eddie
That's so crazy. But dude, Honestly, I want to retire so bad. And if you tell me, like, dude, you're only going to live to be 60, like, oh, well, then I need to retire now. Okay, then I need to figure things out now. But if you tell me I'm going to die when I'm 100, I could chill.
Lunchbox
You could also die by something else other than natural causes, which is basically what this is. When your heart would. I don't want to know.
Eddie
You don't?
Lunchbox
Not if they're gonna go, we're gonna give you a 30 day window. We think everything can.
Amy
Can you just get all that information about your body and then have them black out the part of when you die?
Lunchbox
Now, it's a great question and probably, but, you know, you don't take a pee.
Eddie
What about how you die?
Lunchbox
They hand you. Well, no, that's psychic stuff now. That's not this.
Amy
Well, I guess if you have, like, organ failure, it's gonna tell you.
Lunchbox
Yeah. How you would die, according to. This would be your body giving out.
Amy
Yeah. I'd be like, your liver's not looking great.
Lunchbox
Armed robbery. That goes wrong. That's not going to be on the page.
Bobby Bones
That's what I want.
Amy
Could you know that you need. You're a candidate for a liver transplant.
Eddie
Then you start working on it now.
Amy
Yeah.
Eddie
You know, hold a sign everywhere.
Lunchbox
You take them. Your report, it's healthy. Now, can I get one? Can I jump the line?
Amy
According to this, I'm going to need one eventually. So.
Lunchbox
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So you would want to know.
Amy
Yes.
Lunchbox
30 Day Window, your body gives out a. No. No, I'm a no.
Eddie
Eddie, let me know.
Amy
That's so weird. Eddie and I are about the. And we're like, probably because we're type B, we're kind of just like, okay, yeah.
Lunchbox
I wonder if I could send one of you guys to do this, since you're so sure of yourself. Yeah.
Eddie
Yeah, let's do it.
Lunchbox
I think you guys would come back. Like, I don't want to know that.
Scuba Steve
Yeah, you'd be.
Lunchbox
You'd be.
Scuba Steve
Yeah, we stay in your house and never leave.
Lunchbox
At the same point.
Scuba Steve
That's a good point.
Lunchbox
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bones, it's the inside anonymous inbox. Anonymous inbox. There's a question to be had. Hello, Bobby Bones. Getting married in a few months. I'm excited, but there's some drama brewing with my dad. My parents divorced when I was young. My dad was never really around. Wasn't abusive, just absent. Pop in randomly, forget birthdays, cancel plans. My mom raised me and was honestly my rock. Now the wedding's coming up, he's suddenly super involved, offering to help pay, which he hasn't yet, trying to plan things and most recently asking about the father daughter dance. The thing is, I don't want to do one. I don't feel that kind of connection with him and the idea of standing there pretending makes me uncomfortable. My fiance says it's my day and my choice. But some family members, mainly on my dad's side, are saying I'm being cold and making him feel excluded. I get the people change and maybe he's trying now, but is it really wrong for me to not want to pretend? We've had this beautiful father daughter relationship when we haven't signed. Stopping the tradition. Couple things are at play here. One, I don't think anyone looks at a father daughter dance and goes, wow, they must have had a wonderful life where everything just worked out. It's a nice moment, but you don't really go. I base all of my thought on their relationship on that dance. It's just a moment, but it's also your day. And I don't think there should be anything stressful to you that you can control that you should have to do that you don't have to do. And if this is going to stress you out leading up to it, meaning I don't really want to do it, I'm dreading that moment. Don't do it. There should be no dread involved in a day that you get to plan out. You get to plan away all the dread. There may be some things that are uncomfortable that pop up that you don't really know about or some situations financial, who knows? But there should be no dread planned when you can easily not plan the dread on what's supposed to be a dread free day. So I'm on the team of if you don't want to do it, don't do it.
Bobby Bones
Now.
Lunchbox
If he does pay, do it. You know, I think there are other factors at play here because you know, you could dread if you guys are having to pay for the wedding, having to pay the bills for the wedding. Okay, which dreads worse? Now you're weighing dread. Having to pay some bills for the wedding or having to take two and a half minutes and dance with your dad when people aren't putting all that you're putting into it into it again. I don't see a father daughter dance and go, man, their whole life must have been great. He must have been there for her every day. And man, what a relationship. I'M so envious. I think that's a nice little moment for them right now. That's super cool.
Eddie
Do you wait to see if he pays or not? Or do you tell him, like, you pay, we'll dance.
Lunchbox
I wouldn't dance unless. Unless you're paying up front. I wouldn't dance, but I wouldn't put that as the thing. And I'm not even saying you have to do one for the other, but I'm saying there's going to be some dread. If there's going to be dread, which dread is less dreadful? So if he's paying for it and you're not, maybe you throw them that bone. But I would say, all things considered, don't do the dance. If you don't want to do the dance, there's no reason for you to schedule in something you're not looking forward to into a day that you're really looking forward to when you definitely don't have to.
Amy
Sometimes people do those, like, you know, half songs. They. They'll do the mother daughter dances and stuff like that, but they're not doing an entire song.
Lunchbox
Oh, that's what, that's what I was saying about two and a half minutes.
Amy
I wouldn't dance the whole song, but they'll do.
Lunchbox
You know, my head wasn't out of my mind. That song's over in like a minute and a half. Do Old Town Road by Lil Nas X real quick. Minute 45, you're out of there. Don't do the dance. If all things are considered. Don't do the dance. You don't want to do it. Don't do it. No, you don't do it. Don't do it.
Amy
I know. If you don't want to do it, don't do it. But you don't want to look back and maybe, maybe he has changed and your relationship grows and you're like, oh, man, we should have done it.
Lunchbox
And then he grew from that point. Yeah, yeah, I know.
Amy
I'm with you.
Lunchbox
Don't do it unless he's gonna pay. All right, close it. Think about this and think about what you would do if it happened to you. Because I think it's easy to say what you do but really put yourself in the situation. Because from the New York Post, they ordered some food, fast food. And there was a note with fast food. And on the note, on the receipt with the fast food, it just said, help. I know, I know, I know. And so I want. That's freaky, man. So somebody. I'll read you the Story. Then we'll speculate. Customers, fast food dinner came with a terrifying one word note, leaving them unsure how to handle the situation. So Lake Wells, Florida, quote, and this is what the person wrote. Should I call a cop? My boyfriend thinks that we're just trying to be funny, but I truly don't know. The user posted a photo of their burger in its takeout box with the word help written in black marker. This has got to be a prank. But if it's not, that's the risk.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
With the receipt, it says help on it. The customer was clearly confused whether it was a prank or whether something serious was going on. So I have the update, but what would you do before I give you the update? You order the food, it comes to you, it says help. What do you do?
Amy
Contact support.
Scuba Steve
Customer support.
Amy
Where?
Eddie
I wouldn't do that.
Lunchbox
So a little more details, A little more details. So it's from Freddy's.
Amy
Okay.
Lunchbox
And on the burger cardboard box, everybody with me on the front of it, they wrote help and black marker. And on the receipt, it says help written in, like, lowercase. So you got it twice. Okay. So, Amy, you're calling customer service and staying on hold.
Amy
Well, I guess I was thinking if I, like, door dashed it, I would call. Like, there's a number you can call customer support.
Lunchbox
You would call doordash support.
Amy
If you're gonna call somebody, they're very helpful.
Scuba Steve
Oh, my goodness.
Lunchbox
Wouldn't you, like, call the cops, though, if you're gonna call somebody?
Amy
Yeah, but I guess. I guess I would just ask him. Like, is this a thing?
Lunchbox
I would bet the answer is no.
Amy
Okay, so fine. Am I calling 9?
Lunchbox
I'm asking you what you're doing if you see this.
Amy
Well, I guess first if I'm alone, I'm calling a friend. I'm gonna be like, what, do I help them? Yes, I help them.
Eddie
You're wasting time.
Lunchbox
Yeah, like, you had to make a decision. Somebody's dying. Either as a joke or somebody's, you know, getting their head.
Amy
Okay, fine, I'm calling.
Lunchbox
No, no, we don't want to pressure you into it. We're wondering what you were doing.
Amy
I guess I'm gonna. I guess I'm gonna.
Lunchbox
You already said what you do.
Eddie
Customer service.
Lunchbox
Yes.
Scuba Steve
You're calling customer service?
Lunchbox
Yes. That's your real answer. You know what? We accept that.
Amy
Well, I figured they would know exactly what to do. Like, they've been trained.
Eddie
They'd be like, call the cops. Why are you calling us?
Amy
I know. I'm an idiot.
Scuba Steve
Let me check My manual for that, ma' am.
Lunchbox
I think. And look, I would think that it was a joke. I would think it was a joke. But if it's a 99% chance it's a joke, I'm calling the cops because that 1% chance, and I don't think it'd be real, but I would still call the cops just in case that I was really wrong.
Amy
So let me ask you.
Lunchbox
I call cops.
Amy
What's the scenario? Is it that the kidnapper say, there's a kidnapper?
Lunchbox
I don't know a scenario. I just see help, Amy. And so I'm going to call and say, I just got help. Somebody needs help.
Amy
They wrote help, you know, like, why? So, like, is. Is a kidnapped or driving and they have their abductee. It's called sure, like. And they're like, go drop that off at the porch, but come back or things are not gonna be good for you. And somehow on their way to the.
Lunchbox
Porch, they were driving through the restaurant. It's a. They got to the drive through.
Amy
Sorry, that's.
Lunchbox
This is me. So you call customer service. I'm calling the cops. But I do think it's a prank. But I'm calling the cops because I hope I'm not wrong, but if I am, I'm still covered. Calling the cops. Lunchbox. Oh, man.
Scuba Steve
This is 911 written all over.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yes, you do love to call.
Scuba Steve
This is a moment you've been waiting for. It falls into your lap. You. Before you even get out of the parking lot, you're on the phone with 911 and you're reporting what you see. Ma' am, I can't really tell if there's anything going on in there, but I just got a note that says help. I'm looking through the windows, like in from my car. I don't see anybody looking panicked. But I'd get authorities here real quick.
Eddie
Eddie definitely wouldn't call customer service. I would call 91 1.
Lunchbox
So we're not just taking it as a joke and laughing it off.
Eddie
You can't risk that.
Lunchbox
I know. That's what I think. Because it's probably a joke though, right? Do we all think that would probably be a joke?
Scuba Steve
Yes.
Lunchbox
Yes.
Eddie
Do you have the answer?
Lunchbox
I do. Come on. I called the police. They said. They said they're sending someone there. I was hesitant because my boyfriend was so persistent that it was just a joke because there were guys in the drive through, but I never saw a woman once. And a woman's name was on the receipt. I didn't see that part about the receipt. I just wanted to call them to be safe. So. And this whole story happened, and there's no story of it was an employee prank.
Eddie
The goddess.
Amy
It's not funny.
Scuba Steve
Hilarious.
Lunchbox
I mean, it is funny. It's kind of funny, but don't do it. Don't do it. You don't think that's funny?
Scuba Steve
If you're a 16 year old working at a fast food place and your.
Lunchbox
Bud call the cops, it's not funny.
Amy
I don't like it.
Lunchbox
As a teenage kid, that's probably all you do is write help and see what happens.
Eddie
I mean, we'd probably do it, but.
Lunchbox
Help can mean anything. Like help. I. The toilet.
Eddie
I can't find the tomatoes.
Lunchbox
No, I can't find my keys. Yeah, yeah, don't do that, though. It's not funny as an adult. I would never do that as an adult. Come on. It's time for the good news with lunchbox.
Scuba Steve
Ethan Todd of Pennsylvania is with his girlfriend Lauren when there's some flooding going on. And they come across a car halfway submerged in the raging flood waters. You can't even see the tires of the SUV anymore. He's like, I got to do something. So he's like, I got to go get the women out of the car. And he starts going through the water. Boom, boom. Puts one woman on his back, brings her back to the land, says, I got to get the other lady. Goes boom, boom. Puts her on her back, brings her back to dry land. And then Ethan does something absolutely stupid. He's like, oh, your pursers are in the car. Let me go back and get those.
Eddie
Ethan.
Lunchbox
I'm watching Ethan. I mean, the car is submerged, like he said, at the top of the.
Scuba Steve
Wheelbase, and that's raging water.
Lunchbox
It's a river. Yeah, it's mildly angry, but it's tall. It's not raging, but it is tall. And tall water is dangerous.
Scuba Steve
And my whole thing is, once you got the women, who cares about the purse, right? Like, what are you doing? Luckily, he was okay and he made it. But, dude, leave the purses. If they didn't want to bring them with you when they were on your back, you don't need to go back and get them.
Lunchbox
I will say again, I'm watching him, and he's waiting back through the water. It's right below his waist. It's mildly angry. It's not raging, so I can totally understand him going back.
Amy
Yeah, but water will surprise you.
Scuba Steve
And you slip on a rock, your foot gets stuck. It's over, man.
Eddie
They do say, turn around.
Lunchbox
You can't convince him not to do it. He's already done it. I know you guys are telling him right now, like, he's listening. Don't do it. He did it.
Amy
Yeah, I know, but this and other people might think, oh, I saw that one guy do it, so I can do it.
Lunchbox
This is telling me something good.
Scuba Steve
Yeah, like, hey, man, I'm glad you.
Lunchbox
Went back, because they probably. Their real id.
Bobby Bones
They waited forever to get the real.
Lunchbox
ID exactly like that I totally get.
Scuba Steve
But just think how hot he looks to his girlfriend right now. Like, his girlfriend's probably like, oh, oh.
Amy
You think he looks hot?
Lunchbox
No, I didn't watch that. You got him.
Amy
That is what I heard.
Lunchbox
I said how hot he looks.
Scuba Steve
No, no, I did not say, hey, that's. No, I'm not saying that.
Lunchbox
That was. Tell me something good. Okay, so on with us right now, we have Brent Michaels, who runs our station in Bakersfield, California, who has been on a bunch of game shows. Hey, Brent.
Bobby Bones
Good morning.
Lunchbox
Can you list off the game shows that you've been on?
Morgan
So I was on Wheel of Fortune earlier this season, and then 25 words or less and people puzzler. Those two are on the Game Show.
Lunchbox
Network about three game shows. They call them all the time now to be on shows or to recommend people to be on shows now on the show. Last week, I had mentioned they reached out to Brent to say, do you know anybody who'd be good on Wheel of Fortune? And he submitted the names. Well, one show member. One show member. And that show member was Eddie. Wow.
Eddie
This is amazing.
Scuba Steve
It makes no sense.
Eddie
Yes, it does.
Lunchbox
And so Lunchbox got mad, Eddie got happy. Amy then kind of got a little salty, too, because she was like, why didn't I get picked? But then you guys yelled so much, she gave up on being angry.
Amy
Yeah, no, I didn't know that I was that salty. I mean, it'd be fun. You were salty.
Lunchbox
It's just a little mild salt. So I wanted to bring Brent on to explain himself. Not that he needs to, because he does. He did this out of the goodness of his heart. But so first of all, Brent, Eddie, and Lunchbox are now in it. By the way, they're not on the show. There's no guaranteed place on the show. Right, Brent?
Morgan
Correct. So they. They reached out, just saying, hey, you've been on it. Do you know anybody who would be a great contestant? And so, yeah, at this point, like, it's just starting the casting process. So I threw out Eddie's name. Here, here's what I was thinking. You know, Eddie's got a great story. He's a dad. He's an adoptive dad, and they really are looking for great stories. I mean, the lady I played with is an amputee who helps other people who can't afford it get prosthetics. I mean, I'm just a regular radio person.
Scuba Steve
Yeah, so they made a great story.
Amy
Well, I just one thing, doctor. Adopted positive mom.
Lunchbox
Okay, Salt, you need to relax.
Eddie
My goodness.
Morgan
I also did not take into account Amy's late grandmother, so my apologies.
Lunchbox
On it.
Amy
Yeah, okay.
Lunchbox
Yeah, you. You have some people die.
Amy
Like, she loved the bird. She really did. Anyway, you had no way to.
Lunchbox
Not in this. Amy. We're not bringing Amy.
Amy
I mean, he can use adopted dad as the story.
Lunchbox
Yes, he can. Of those too. If he's like, they're the best he can. Yeah, that's part of his story.
Amy
Oh, so he's looking for a male. Okay.
Eddie
Oh, my.
Lunchbox
See again, Amy Salt. She's like, I wasn't salty.
Amy
I'm not Sal.
Lunchbox
But if he's picking a big personality of the three, he's like, I know it's not Amy. And there's are these two. And he's like, well, let me pick who has the better story. That's why he picked Eddie.
Eddie
I love it. Okay, so I was a foster parent too. I mean, this is not just a one dimension story.
Lunchbox
So story aside, Brent, back to you. Sorry Amy sidetracked us. Go ahead.
Morgan
No, I. I just thought Eddie would be a lot of fun. I thought he'd be great at it. And I mean, like. Okay, to be fair, I did not know this at the time, but Lunchbox did say he thought he would be a one out of ten.
Scuba Steve
No, no, no. That. You didn't know that. See, that's what I'm saying. Better personality. You have got to be kidding me. If you think Eddie has a better personality than me. Like, what are you listening to?
Lunchbox
But what he's saying is he then heard, no, but then. No, no, but then don't add me. And then proved that he was right based on his first pick. Was that Lunchbox said he was 1 out of 10 at being good at Will of Fortune.
Amy
Oh, so he has like a good.
Lunchbox
Intuition.
Amy
Yeah.
Scuba Steve
He didn't say anything about who would be good at the game. He said, better personality. That was all he was going off. He didn't say, oh, I was looking. Let me think. Who would be better at the game. He said, I thought Eddie Had a better.
Lunchbox
Did you hear what he just said? Then he said he was proven right afterward to go because lunchbox had a 1 out of 10 when he said how good he would be. So, anyway, Brent, back to you, buddy. I'm sorry.
Morgan
Well, and if. If Eddie does proceed through the casting process, there is a part where you do have to play the game and show that you can do it.
Lunchbox
Wow.
Eddie
I mean, that's perfect.
Lunchbox
And you thought you'd be about a seven. Yeah.
Scuba Steve
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Ye. And how does the cast. Eddie's good at games. Yes.
Bobby Bones
How does.
Lunchbox
Eddie is the best at games. All I do is win. That's true. He is the best at games on the show because we have a stat keeper that calls every year and gives us full stats.
Scuba Steve
Yeah, he's good because we play a lot of music games. Who knows music the best?
Lunchbox
That's not. No, it's not.
Eddie
We play all kinds of games.
Lunchbox
Easy trivia. Eddie's good at games, and I'm offended.
Eddie
That he doesn't think I have a good personality. So I'm not grumpy and loud.
Lunchbox
Yes. Volume equals personality. So, Brent, so what would happen next if they do, like, what they see with Eddie? Oh, yes.
Morgan
So I think they probably would reach out to Eddie, invite him onto a Zoom either by email or phone, you know, and he'll get a chance to talk to somebody and tell them why he thinks he'd be great on the game. And from there, you know, if they really like what they see in those couple minutes, then, you know, they'll get you on another Zoom with kind of a higher up producer, and then eventually get you on a Zoom where you maybe like, play with a few other people, like, all together at once.
Lunchbox
Oh, that's fun.
Morgan
And then, yeah, if. If you eventually make it on the show, then, yeah, you get yourself to LA to film with Ryan and Vanna.
Lunchbox
Man, that would be awesome.
Eddie
And I can win, like, the cash.
Lunchbox
You would win the cash. Win money. Hey, Brent, does it help that Eddie's Mexican? For sure.
Morgan
I mean, it doesn't hurt.
Lunchbox
Yeah, yeah, because. Right. I mean, they want to have a certain amount of men, women, diversity. Sure. Yeah.
Eddie
But I got another one. I got another trick up my sleeve. They're gonna be like, what else do you have? Like, I'm dyslexic, guys. I've been living with dyslexia, and I overcame this terrible disease, I could win disorder.
Lunchbox
This is a Disney movie waiting to happen.
Eddie
So y' all didn't think about that?
Lunchbox
A guy with dyslexia winning Wheel of Fortune. I would for sure watch that. Wow.
Scuba Steve
Huge.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Okay, so that's why Brent picked Eddie. Amy resulted.
Amy
Well, yeah, because I also have dyslexia, so it'd be a beautiful story. I'm an adopted mom with dyslexia. I feel like the only difference is.
Eddie
Well, you're not Hispanic.
Scuba Steve
That's true.
Lunchbox
Y' all are. Only Eddie and I are.
Amy
Bobby, you're not.
Eddie
Yes, he is.
Lunchbox
Why not? Thank you.
Amy
Me too.
Lunchbox
So, okay. But we know nothing. Hey, Brent, because they asked you and you recommended, do you think Eddie will at least get a single follow up from them to meet with them or do something?
Morgan
Yeah, I would hope so. You know, because they're always looking for people to be on the show. And like, even without a recommendation, you can go on right now and submit an audition video and. And try to get on. I mean, that's like. People do that all the time.
Lunchbox
That's probably how a lot do it.
Eddie
Lunchbox.
Lunchbox
But if there's anything that he has to do on his own, that usually doesn't get done.
Scuba Steve
Oh, here we go.
Eddie
Hey, what if you get picked over me, dude, but you do it the old school way.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I'd say I'm Lunchbox. I'm Hispanic, I have dyslexia, and I.
Scuba Steve
Am an adoptive parent.
Lunchbox
Eddie's entire story. Okay. Hey, Brent. So we'll keep you updated on if Eddie gets a call back. Amy. That you want to say to Brent.
Amy
Maybe consider me for another game that comes up.
Morgan
Okay. I'm sorry, Amy.
Amy
No, no, you don't have to apologize. Yeah, we just. I mean, I get. You have a. You have a. We're. There's a lot of us to choose from. There's a lot of talent.
Lunchbox
Suggest me. Why am I not upset?
Scuba Steve
Because you don't need him to suggest you.
Amy
Because you feel like you'd be embarrassed by Wheel of Fortune. Maybe. But what if there was another game you really wanted to play? Let's think about this.
Lunchbox
Then I would go for it myself and not have to worry about somebody recommending me.
Amy
Yeah, yeah.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Amy
Okay. Never mind.
Scuba Steve
I don't know.
Lunchbox
Lunchbox. I'd be. I suck at Will of Fortune, so I. Yeah.
Amy
So that's why you don't care.
Lunchbox
I'd be terrible. Lunchbox. Anything you want to say to Brent? You have 10 seconds.
Eddie
Be nice.
Scuba Steve
He's an idiot and I don't even know who he is.
Amy
Hey, he gets reached out to about other games.
Scuba Steve
He's dead.
Eddie
Is that a threat?
Amy
So, yeah, wash your back.
Lunchbox
Wash your back. Addie, anything you want to say to Brett?
Eddie
Yeah, Brett, just a few questions. When should I expect a call, do you think roughly?
Lunchbox
He's not the dude.
Amy
He doesn't know.
Lunchbox
Yeah, yeah.
Eddie
And is the area code like Hollywood? What's the area?
Lunchbox
Good question.
Morgan
Probably LA. So I would think either 818 or 310. Probably something like that.
Eddie
All right, I'll be on the.
Lunchbox
Look, the phone lights up at the Hollywood sign from anyone who calls from Hollywood.
Eddie
It plays party in the USA.
Lunchbox
I thought if I give you 10 seconds, you would just use it to thank him and say I appreciate that. Not ask for.
Scuba Steve
I want you to say thank you. So that's how much. No, no, no. Your 10 seconds is up.
Lunchbox
But you said you wanted to kill him.
Scuba Steve
I said he's dead to me.
Eddie
No, he's a dead. Just.
Lunchbox
Yeah, not to him, just dead. Brent, thank you.
Eddie
Thank you, Brent.
Lunchbox
You are always looking up. You got our back. We appreciate it and we will let you know if Eddie gets a call. Okay.
Morgan
All right, I'll see you guys soon.
Eddie
All right.
Lunchbox
There he is, Brent Michaels.
Eddie
He's awesome.
Lunchbox
From Bakersfield. From the Bull.

Lunchbox
It's Lainey Wilson's birthday today. Happy birthday Lainey Wilson. Five things you may not know about her. This is all from our show. She grew up in a town of 300 people. She described it to me as how it has the best gas station food that she still loves.
Raymundo
All small towns are pretty similar, but mine, we have a caution light and a bunch of corn fields. Pretty much everybody knows everybody. Half of them are my family. Yeah, we have a convenience store called Cupid's Corner. Well, it's like, you know that, that nasty good gas station food, you know, like those deep fried Hot Pockets corn dog stuff like that Crispitos, man, the good stuff.
Lunchbox
It doesn't make sense, but nasty good gas station food makes all sense. It does if you grew up near a small town or in a small town. Nasty good gas station food is about the best compliment you can give. A little gas station number four on this list from her. Her hometown is Baskin, Louisiana. It was so small they did not have a high school. She talks about having to go to a high school in a different town.
Raymundo
So I actually had to go over to the town next to me to go to school. Cuz I mean there's not a high school in our town. Even though I had to go next door to a town called Winsboro. I only graduated with 24 kids.
Amy
Wow.
Lunchbox
I graduated with around 50. And that was our biggest class in a long time. And most people will go, I cannot believe you went to a school that small.
Eddie
Hers is half that size.
Lunchbox
That's crazy.
Eddie
You go to any college you want. Like, a school that small, like, because you're, like, 24th in your class.
Lunchbox
It's the opposite.
Eddie
Oh, really?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
No, in Arkansas, it wasn't like Texas, where, like, top 10 could automatically get into places.
Scuba Steve
Yeah.
Lunchbox
And Arkansas was not that at all. It was mostly like, what's your SAT and ACT score? That's pretty much it.
Amy
And then you always need an explanation of how many people. Because my dad used to always tell me, hey, I was number two in my class. You can do it. I was number two. And there was, like, 15 people in his class.
Lunchbox
Yeah. He should use number two instead of percentage, because number two and 15, that percentage wouldn't have been as high. So. Yeah. Yeah. Smart by him. We didn't have a baseball field, so we had to play at another school's baseball field growing up, which sucked. And they made fun of us all the time because we had to use their field as the home field. So when we played them and it was a home game, we. But we were playing on their field.
Eddie
Oh, dang.
Lunchbox
Oh, they made fun of us the whole game. Law. Too poor. You have to use our. Like, our team was getting. Oh, yeah, it was brutal. We had to have, like, 25 minutes to have a home baseball field. We did have a home football field, but we also had a track team. And I didn't run track except for Coach Matus do. Like, district. We had to do track during district. All the football team did, and we didn't have a track, so we had to use other people's track. We just had a mud dug out around the football field. So we trained in the mud, in the dirt, and then had. But when we got there, it felt like. It felt like we were so fast. Yeah. It's like training in altitude, then being down. Lanny said she lived in a camper for three years when she moved to Nashville, when she was just trying to make it as an artist.
Raymundo
Yeah, I moved up here in a camper, hooked it up to the truck, brought it up here. I bombed water, WI Fi, electricity. I was going to college online, so the WI Fi would pick up.
Lunchbox
How long did you live in that place for free?
Amy
Three years.
Raymundo
It was kind of one of those. I was just paying my, you know, my note on my trailer and. And gas. So I was still Traveling back to Louisiana at that time, playing shows. And that's how I was making my money to eat and stay alive.
Lunchbox
As we counted down at number two, she revealed how much she got paid. The first time her music got featured on Yellowstone, which ended up being something.
Raymundo
That was recurring for her working overtime. Actually got put into Yellowstone, the show Yellowstone on Paramount.
Lunchbox
Oh, cool.
Raymundo
So, yeah, it was the second season, first episode.
Lunchbox
And so what do they pay you for that?
Raymundo
You know, 20,000.
Lunchbox
Oh, my God. I'm using the song in a show.
Raymundo
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Wait, how often do they play that?
Raymundo
You know, we trying to write.
Amy
We try to run it for the yellow.
Lunchbox
Did they run at the whole. Every episode?
Raymundo
I mean, it's not literally. It was like 20,000. That's it.
Amy
Period.
Raymundo
Done.
Lunchbox
That's a lot of money to use the song. We also did this interview before she ever hit. Ever had a hit. Like, we were doing this before she ever had a number one. So that's a lot of money to an artist who was still trying to make it. She was out of the trailer by this point, but, yeah, she did. She had a record deal, but she hadn't had a number one yet when she was talking about that. And then she used to perform as Hannah Montana, and at the time, she was making more money impersonating Hannah Montana than she was as an artist.
Raymundo
I had the wig, I had the outfits. A lot of the time they didn't want Lainey Wilson there. They just wanted Hannah Montana to come to the party or whatever. So I get up there, sing a few songs, play my guitar, and.
Lunchbox
And you would know the songs.
Raymundo
Oh, yeah.
Lunchbox
Did you ever do the climb?
Raymundo
I did.
Lunchbox
Is that. Was that your best paying gig?
Raymundo
Absolutely. I made way more money then than I do now. I'm gonna tell you right now, by.
Lunchbox
The way, that was then. That's not now. Crushing it.
Amy
Definitely not now.
Lunchbox
But happy birthday to Lanny. Maybe thought I went golfing with my dad or something.
Amy
No, I know it was your dad. I thought it was somebody's dad.
Lunchbox
So I posted on my Instagram @ Mr. Bobby Bones the following caption. I said, everybody, this is my friend Nick. He's trying to become Instagram famous. He wears a weird A, but I told him I'd post this. Good luck, Nick. And so the A is the Alabama A. And it's Nick Saban, who's the greatest college football coach of all time.
Eddie
We all knew this.
Lunchbox
Well, I was telling the story of.
Amy
How I. Oh, yeah. How I thought he was fragile little man.
Lunchbox
That's so Rude.
Bobby Bones
It's not rude.
Amy
I thought that. No, no, no, no, no.
Lunchbox
He's not a fragile little old man.
Amy
He's not. But something. Maybe. It's just, I guess in my mind, whenever I've seen Nick Saban, like, coaching or doing something, I just thought, he's bigger.
Lunchbox
I thought he was taller, too.
Amy
Okay, so I'm not wrong, but I.
Lunchbox
Think he was fragile. Well, he is 73.
Amy
Okay.
Lunchbox
He's 5 6. It says 5 6.
Amy
No way.
Lunchbox
Let me look at this. And I need to look at the picture.
Amy
I'm 5 6, because I'll fight for.
Lunchbox
Nick Saban to the death of me. Even though he wears the wrong A. I wear the Arkansas A. He wears the Alabama.
Amy
Even that hat is giving him height.
Lunchbox
He. I would say he's like five eight. If I'm six. One. Yeah. This site listed at five seven because I'm a good five inches tall at six. Right. I mean, look at the picture. Anyway, I posted that, and we were talking about it. I said, yeah, I was on the driving range with Nick Saban. Then, you know, we played this golf thing together. And Amy goes, that was Nick Saban. I thought that was like, some.
Amy
How do you feel Saban S, a B, E, N S a B, A, N, S a B, a N. Yeah.
Lunchbox
Him is insulted the greatest coach of all time.
Amy
No, no, I know he's. I know he's the greatest of all time. I'm not insulting him at all. I just thought you were. I. I didn't realize you were at a celebrity thing. Is that neighbor Gatsby behind you? Shut up.
Lunchbox
Neighbor Gatsby was. He didn't mean to photobomb our picture.
Amy
That's awesome. Like, I had. Obviously, I just was scrolling quickly because I just realized I hadn't even liked. I mean, normally I like it. I hadn't. So I just went to it, and I was like, oh, I didn't even like it. So I must have just been scrolling quickly. That's funny.
Lunchbox
And you just passed by grandpa and you're like, oh, Bobby's playing with some guy.
Amy
No, I was like, oh, Bobby met a older listener. But now I see that. That you're clearly at a celebrity event, because that is Nate.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Nate Borgasse doesn't mean to be in the picture. He's just behind us.
Amy
That's funny, right?
Lunchbox
Yeah. But, yeah, Nick Saban was. He was nice.
Amy
That's cool.
Lunchbox
He wasn't fragile.
Eddie
And you asked him for the picture. How did that happen?
Lunchbox
We. There's a picture of. There's A picture of, like, me, Saban, Kirk, Herb Street, Penny Hardaway, Nate Bragazzi just standing around talking.
Amy
Who has that photo?
Lunchbox
I do. Oh, and also, Shay is in it from Dan and Shay. Marcus Allen Bear from Need to Breathe. Drew. Drew Brees.
Amy
What were. What was this?
Lunchbox
Cole Swindell? Ben Roethlisberger.
Eddie
What on earth?
Lunchbox
Dell Curry? I didn't call him that.
Scuba Steve
I would say just you.
Lunchbox
Not.
Amy
Yeah, well, that is on. We're all alleged past behaviors.
Lunchbox
We're all there just talking, and they're like, hey, everybody turn. And we all turned around and took a picture together. And then as we were walking off. I don't think Saban's even in this picture, Amy. You don't know Penny. Hard to stop it.
Amy
I'm just looking at your stories now.
Eddie
You know, Dell Curry is no.
Lunchbox
Steph's dad.
Amy
Oh, Steph Curry.
Lunchbox
Yeah, Steph Curry's dad. But Dell Curry was an excellent three point shooter back. Anyway, all this, we were there for Chris Tomlinson, who's a good friend of mine, and we were all just talking, and they were like, hey, turn around. Take a picture. So we're all walking off and I see Coach Saban and I say, hey, you have the wrong a. And he's had a big razorback on my shirt.
Eddie
Let's go.
Lunchbox
And he's like, I wouldn't say this is the wrong one. And then a guy with a camera goes, hey, you guys. You guys should take a picture together. And I was like, oh, thank God, because I wasn't gonna ask. Then we took the picture.
Eddie
That's perfect.
Amy
McCoy was there too.
Lunchbox
His wife. His wife listens to you. She is a big fan of you.
Eddie
Oh, just Amy.
Lunchbox
Yes.
Eddie
She turns us all down.
Lunchbox
Well, apparently, because Cole came up to me because I never want to bother people and never assume they know who I am. And Cole is, by the way, massive.
Amy
Like a big dude.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I'll post. I'll post a picture. See, I would have thought he was short.
Amy
Yeah. Bobby, are you doing that thing where you get on your toes?
Lunchbox
Probably, but I don't see the picture. He's. Is there a picture of Cole?
Amy
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I posted on my story.
Amy
Yes, that's right. That's where I saw you.
Lunchbox
And I'm probably not on my toes there because that was not a on purpose picture. Let me see if I can find it.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
No, Bear, I'm not on my tiptoes, but I am standing on the tall side of the hill, if I'm being honest. And he's still a good. 2 inches. Yeah. He's a big boy. Wow. Thick. Do you see it?
Amy
Yeah. Yeah.
Lunchbox
Eddie, are you on it?
Eddie
No, I got you. Penny Hardaway. Right now.
Lunchbox
Yep. Go ahead. Go to Cole McCoy.
Amy
I mean, Cole McCoy. Has he even look how thick he is? Aged. He looks the same.
Eddie
That's Bear.
Lunchbox
Wow.
Eddie
Yeah. Yeah, his thick and taller.
Lunchbox
Yeah. So anyway, I thought he was.
Eddie
I thought he'd be a shorter dude.
Lunchbox
Because against other massive guys, he doesn't look as big. But anyway, those are all my friends. We're just hanging out the house.
Eddie
There's Belichick and his chick.
Lunchbox
That's not true. We didn't meet them at a different thing, though. We met them at a different thing.
Amy
Yeah. Do you think they'd be a. That's not nice.
Lunchbox
Yeah, it is not nice.
Amy
Well, I was gonna say something because it was Chris Tomlin's golf.
Lunchbox
Bring your kid to golf tournament. Tournament, and he brings her. Is that what you're gonna say?
Amy
I don't know.
Lunchbox
Okay. But that's what it was.
Eddie
That's awesome.
Lunchbox
And that's how I met Nick Saban, who Amy thought was my fr. On Paul.
Amy
No.
Lunchbox
Who did not seem frail at all.
Amy
No, he didn't. No, no, no, no, no.
Lunchbox
And also was just not as tall as I expected. So, Coach Saban, in case you're listening.
Amy
Yeah, I'd like to retract the word frail. I think it's just maybe his posture. Posture, posture.
Raymundo
Whatever.
Amy
He. He's awesome.
Lunchbox
Thank you. Now we're good. Now we're awesome.
Amy
Roll, tie.
Lunchbox
I don't say that.
Amy
But yeah, I do.
Lunchbox
Because I grew up in Alabama.
Amy
I am the granddaughter of Alabama fans and the daughter, quite honestly.
Eddie
But that counts.
Lunchbox
No, it does.
Amy
Yeah. My mom is from Alabama. Yeah. But my family went to Alabama. Yes, she was.
Lunchbox
You can't claim Alabama fan. Your mom was not Alabama.
Amy
My mom was an Alabama fan.
Lunchbox
Guys, have you ever heard that? It's time for the Good News with producer Eddie.
Eddie
Do you guys know what a bodega is?
Lunchbox
Yeah, it's one of those stores in New York City. Yeah. Yeah.
Eddie
So there's a bodega in Staten island and the owner decided to do something so cool for students in the neighborhood. If they bring the report card and show them their grades, they get treats. They get free items from the store. So if they get A's and B's, they can choose anything from the store. One item, it's yours. If they get Cs, they get ten dollar store credit and they get perfect 100, which is like all A's, they get a hundred dollars in cash and a T shirt.
Lunchbox
Wow.
Amy
What? Any kid.
Scuba Steve
Any kid.
Lunchbox
It has to be one, that school district.
Eddie
It can't be.
Lunchbox
And then two, if you have a bodega. It's not like you're making millions of dollars.
Amy
Right?
Lunchbox
How's he affording that?
Amy
Maybe it's an area where there's not a lot of.
Eddie
Well, the owner says he has kids, too, and he struggles. He knows the struggle the parents have with grades.
Lunchbox
I think it's a great story. Amazing. So great that I'm going, man, this guy must be forking over a bunch of money.
Eddie
It even says that if you have perfect attendance, you get something, too. This is amazing.
Lunchbox
I'm watching him look at one, because the report card is digital, that he on the phone, and she has, like, a 99.8, and so she's, like, picking out something. It's like you won something at the carnival. I'll take that. Or at Dave and Buster's when you turn in your tickets.
Eddie
Yeah, 99.8, though. That's not gonna get you the hundred dollars.
Lunchbox
What's his name?
Eddie
The guy's name is Whale. I believe that's how you pronounce it. W, A, I, L. Whale. And the store is Zach's Finest Deli and groceries.
Lunchbox
It'd be cool if people went by and gave him a few bucks. That'd be able to keep giving a few bucks. That'd be cool. That's a good story. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me, Bones. Here's a voicemail from over the weekend. Hi, guys. I have a Morning Corny for you. Why do ducks have pill feathers?
Amy
Hide their butt quacks.
Lunchbox
There you have it. That's cute. That's good. Let's go over to Amy with the Morning Corny.
Morgan
The Morning Corny?
Amy
What do pickles do on a Friday night? Netflix and Dill. Hey, guys.
Morgan
That was the Morning Corny.
Amy
I wrote that one.
Eddie
Oh, original.
Lunchbox
She writes bad jokes. What?
Amy
I thought that was good.
Lunchbox
I was just doing the. You know. I see that, people. That was good. Hey, Amy.
Eddie
Good job, Amy. You're gonna get better, too.
Lunchbox
Good job, Amy. Okay, Lunchbox owes us all money and a lot of money. We all put in 80 bucks, and we bought this palette from this company that takes all the Amazon refunds, basically. So if you buy something on Amazon, you don't want it, you send it back, you get your money back, but then they just put it somewhere, and then mysteriously, they package a Bunch together and you buy them. And then I guess the plan is you take them all apart and you sell them individually and make more money. It's like buying a car and stripping it for parts. Except this is a pallet of refunds. Yeah. So six of us put $80 in. So you're talking about a good amount of money. Lunchbox starts selling the stuff, and not without drama and him cussing Abby out on the air. And it was a whole thing, so we just stopped talking about it for months. But he's been selling it. We all put in 87.50 a person. $525 total. And we told him if we don't have our money now, we want out of everything. So that's the full reminder to everybody listening. And he's promised us that we're going to understand why he hasn't given us any money. Lunchbox, I'm gonna hand the floor to you.
Scuba Steve
Would you like to know your total? Would you like me to just hand you the envelopes? You want me to tell you the reason?
Lunchbox
Did you bring envelopes?
Scuba Steve
Oh, yeah.
Amy
For each person.
Lunchbox
Pass them out, then we won't open them yet, but pass out the envelopes.
Amy
Okay.
Eddie
Okay. This is good.
Amy
Yeah, this is like.
Scuba Steve
Oh, the money fairy is here.
Lunchbox
That was, like, dirty.
Producer Eddie
They're not actual envelopes. They're just paper folded. That's why it's pieces of paper.
Amy
Stapled.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Amy
Hey, hey.
Lunchbox
Whatever the money's in, this feels like a drug deal for sure.
Amy
But whatever the money is, it looks thick, though.
Eddie
It's okay. We're not picky. As long as there's money in there.
Lunchbox
How long has it been since we've had this money?
Scuba Steve
Two years.
Lunchbox
Two years?
Eddie
A couple weeks.
Amy
Two years?
Lunchbox
Yes. Summer of 2023. Summer of 2023. He's had this for almost two years. He hasn't paid us. Where has.
Amy
Where has time gone?
Lunchbox
Lunch bar. Stop yelling.
Amy
Okay, just.
Lunchbox
Just keep slapping paper.
Amy
Okay. It's heavy. It's thick. Did he get it? $1 bills.
Lunchbox
All right, guys, give me the money. Scuba walked in, wanting his.
Eddie
Truck in the process. I like my money.
Lunchbox
Scuba walked in with his hand. What if he messed up the. And did it by five?
Eddie
Oh, no.
Lunchbox
Oh, no.
Amy
Shut up.
Eddie
Missing one again.
Lunchbox
Oh, he's yelling. Oh, no. Digging into his bag. Is this a bit?
Scuba Steve
No, no. Maybe I left another room.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Scuba Steve
But you did. Yeah, Yeah, I did it, right. I did it.
Lunchbox
Into our two years.
Eddie
Hold on a second. Are you sure, though?
Lunchbox
Because this.
Eddie
This could be a wrong amount of Money.
Scuba Steve
Trust me.
Eddie
Six, not five.
Scuba Steve
I, I divided the other room. The, the prod studio over there. Yeah. Maybe I dropped it in there.
Eddie
You dropped money? Oh, no, that's, that's shocking to me.
Lunchbox
Do you want to go help him find it real quick?
Scuba Steve
No, it may, it may have dropped at the house, man. I don't know.
Amy
But you know you did it, right?
Scuba Steve
Yeah, I know I did it right.
Lunchbox
Skit was mad. Skin was in the glass room. Confused.
Morgan
I think this doesn't even go any.
Eddie
Further until you have my money. Because I'm now concerned, I'm now concerned that you have completely effed up and you took it and divided by five and not six. You keep waving your hands around. No, no, no, no, no, no.
Scuba Steve
Where is my to drop the envelope at home. There, there's.
Eddie
Are you sure though, guys?
Lunchbox
Can we accept this money if everybody getting it?
Eddie
We can't. There's no way you can.
Lunchbox
I think we have to give you the money back.
Scuba Steve
Oh my God.
Eddie
Did you ride your bike to work today?
Lunchbox
For our listeners, that's a serious question.
Eddie
It could be anywhere.
Lunchbox
Cuz he does ride his bike.
Scuba Steve
I didn't ride it today.
Lunchbox
What was. Hey, how beauty. The irony of him dropping cash on the road, somebody finding it, just keeping it as a. When he says he found it, he would just keep it.
Amy
And he's always like, how could someone leave an envelope full of money.
Lunchbox
So nobody opened their money. We can't do it. What do you mean? If I'm gonna be the cast of Friends, we all get the same at the same time or we get nothing.
Eddie
Look in that prod suit. I don't know what you're talking about.
Amy
Can he call?
Lunchbox
Do we want to take a break wife or something and come back and see if he finds it in the other room?
Scuba Steve
Yeah, maybe. All right.
Eddie
I want to because I want my money.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Nobody opened their envelope.
Scuba Steve
I was so excited to do this and I may have left one at home.
Eddie
Why is there always drama?
Lunchbox
Is your wife at home?
Scuba Steve
Nope.
Lunchbox
Any chance you left a kid at home? Okay, we're gonna check.
Scuba Steve
Oh my God.
Lunchbox
Which boxes enter the room again. He passed out all of our money. He owes us a bunch of money, so we have it. We're not gonna open it though, until Scuba Steve has this because he gave five of us all of our money from this pallet that we all invested in. Where is Scuba Steve's money?
Scuba Steve
I don't know, man. I guess it's at the house.
Eddie
I, I, this is so dumb.
Lunchbox
So you don't really know.
Scuba Steve
No, I really don't know. Like, I literally, like, did all the stapling and everything, and I was like, all right. And I swear I put them all in the bag. And then I went and tried to give you hand it out. And there's only four in the bag.
Lunchbox
Okay. I need you to walk around and pick up everybody's money. We can't even look in the envelope.
Eddie
I don't even want to touch this money.
Scuba Steve
Oh, and I even thought about labeling.
Lunchbox
Them to our listeners. I'd like to say something who are like, man, you sure to give Lunchbox a hard time. It's always something.
Eddie
We've been.
Lunchbox
For two years. For two years, we've been trying to get paid from this thing. We all. I don't even want to say invested. We dumbly put money in and then left him in charge of it, and.
Eddie
We got suckered is what we did.
Lunchbox
Yes. No.
Scuba Steve
Can I tell you something?
Lunchbox
What?
Scuba Steve
I even took my kids to the bank so they could see me withdraw so much money.
Lunchbox
For what reason?
Scuba Steve
So they could see all the cash.
Lunchbox
So you'd look cool. Yeah.
Scuba Steve
And they were freaking out. Can I hold it?
Lunchbox
Can I hold it?
Eddie
Oh, no. Did you let your kids hold it?
Scuba Steve
I did let them hold it.
Eddie
Oh, boy.
Scuba Steve
I let them each take a picture.
Lunchbox
With it because it's like cops after a drug bust where they've got all the money. They're taking a picture. Okay.
Scuba Steve
And so they all held the money, took pictures, and, man, I don't know what happened. That's not good. I don't know. This is.
Lunchbox
Gosh, Scuba. Steve, I'm sorry.
Scuba Steve
Hey, Scuba. I'd like to apologize.
Lunchbox
What we need to do that Scoob is so mad. Here's what we need to do, Scuba, all right? And I need to say this, because this is the only way Lunchbox would get one over on us. If he thought if he was playing 3D chess, I would say, brilliant move. Because what he could do right now is say, oh, I forgot one. Take the money back. He could keep that extra for himself. Divide all this money in the five into six. And then he just made a bunch of money off of us because we.
Eddie
Don'T know the actual.
Lunchbox
We don't know the actual amount. So we need to give Abby, who wasn't in one of the packs now so she can count it and make sure when it comes back tomorrow, it's the same exact amount.
Scuba Steve
No, no.
Lunchbox
Yes. Yes. Anybody can spreadsheet it. Then show Morgan the number on the spreadsheet. For everybody.
Scuba Steve
I mean, I've already.
Lunchbox
As long as somebody knows the number, because he could totally mathematically play us. Don't tell us the number, Morgan.
Eddie
Make sure he doesn't change it.
Scuba Steve
I would never.
Lunchbox
You would. You would.
Scuba Steve
No, no. See, that's the difference between me and you guys. Like, I would never scam you guys. I'm an honest businessman.
Lunchbox
Morgan, do not say hold.
Scuba Steve
That's not.
Lunchbox
Hold it. Okay.
Scuba Steve
See, right there.
Lunchbox
Okay. Hold it to your heart.
Scuba Steve
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Don't tell us.
Amy
Okay.
Lunchbox
If it's less than that tomorrow. Because he really could have done this bit. We don't. Look out.
Scuba Steve
No, no, no. You can't open it.
Producer Eddie
You can't open it out there.
Lunchbox
Does it have dye packs in it?
Eddie
Yeah. Why can't we open it?
Scuba Steve
No, no. I want her to experience it like everybody else.
Lunchbox
But did she get a pack?
Scuba Steve
But she.
Lunchbox
No, but still.
Scuba Steve
Then she knows. And it's not as exciting, is it?
Lunchbox
It's either like two dollar bills or it's pictures of fake money with his head on it. Something's up with this money.
Scuba Steve
No, he's not. There's nothing up with the money, except for it's missing.
Lunchbox
Is there any chance you lost Scuba Steves?
Scuba Steve
I mean, there's a chance. I mean, obviously, I. Like, literally, you saw the shock on my face, but I didn't know that I didn't have an envelope.
Lunchbox
So we'll do this again tomorrow, and hopefully everybody has their own.
Eddie
Another day.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Scuba Steve
I mean, what's one more day?
Eddie
This is so frustrating. No, guys, look at Amy. Amy's, like, not even laughing.
Amy
Yeah, because I'm like, this is so stupid.
Lunchbox
We've been doing this for two years, Amy.
Amy
I know. And I. I try to have your back. Lunchbox, and then you go and do this.
Scuba Steve
No, I didn't do this. This happened.
Lunchbox
This is why you don't leave him in charge of things, though. And you guys are like, why do you always say that? This is example 83. We all put in 87 to buy this palette of used items from Amazon, and we didn't know what it was then. Lunchbox is like, we'll individually sell them. Basically been selling them, but he would not give us our money. He told us today he was going.
Bobby Bones
To explain why we never got our money.
Lunchbox
Do you want to explain or wait till tomorrow?
Scuba Steve
I'll wait till tomorrow.
Lunchbox
Okay, so we're done.
Eddie
We were so close to that money.
Lunchbox
We were so close.
Amy
It felt thick, too.
Scuba Steve
That's what I'm saying.
Lunchbox
I'm not convinced it was real money. Could have been a, a sponge, a sink sponge or something. Okay.
Scuba Steve
I don't know how that happened.
Lunchbox
We'll do it again tomorrow. Everybody. 24 more hours.

Lunchbox
You wake up in the morning it trying to put you through. M riding his wigs. Next bit and Bobby's on the mic. So you know what this is? This is the Bobby Bone store. All right, let's do our live segment. Just check in from the weekend. What's going on in your life? I'll go first. This is my pickle medal from the tournament I won this weekend. Thank you very much.
Amy
So I, I purposely wanted to hold off to figure out all the details.
Bobby Bones
So my body hurts.
Lunchbox
I played 14 matches in one day.
Amy
Okay, 14.
Lunchbox
Yeah. The joints aren't what they used to be.
Bobby Bones
This is bronze.
Lunchbox
I finished third in my tournament. I never played one before, and I'm pretty happy. I. They're right. When you win bronze, you're just happy you got it.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
If I want silver, I'd be like, this sucks. I made it to the metal round, and then you have to play with four people. And I nailed a fence. I didn't even injure myself. This is why I'm such a loser. I nailed a fence diving for a ball, and I was bleeding all down my arm. Ended up losing that by, like, two points. But I was so obsessed with, like, getting pictures of my blood, playing with blood on my arm.
Eddie
You got one Because I saw it.
Lunchbox
I did get one, but I lost the match by a guy who I beat earlier in round. Robin. Oh, I know his name was Robin. No, I played to get into the metal round. You had to play every. You had to play, like, everybody on your side. So I played, like, six matches, and I went five and one, I think. And so one of the guys I beat ended up beating me, killed my shoulder. It wasn't why I lost because it didn't injure me, but I was just like, get a picture while I'm drinking. So I'm an idiot. That will not happen again. And then I ended up winning the third place match against the one guy that beat me in the early round.
Eddie
Oh, so that's awesome, dude.
Lunchbox
Yeah, it's pretty good. I had no idea what I was doing. I'd play the tournament different if I could because I went way too hard at the beginning. You're just trying to get into the final four. But I got third place in my match. There's. And I don't know much about the rating system. I had to sign up for a rating. And they rate you after you. After you play. And so I'm like, at 3.78 or 3.8 out of five and a half after one tournament.
Eddie
Wow, that sounds good. You're almost there.
Amy
I know.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Scuba Steve
You're almost pro.
Lunchbox
I don't think so.
Eddie
No.
Lunchbox
Oh, well. Again, I don't know much about the scoring system, but it says if I'm 4.0, it's advanced.
Amy
No. Well, you're so.
Lunchbox
Well, I didn't play anybody, though, that I could have got to a 4.0. All the guys that were playing were, like, 353-7-38, so. But everything hurts just because I'm Playing all the matches.
Eddie
14. That's a lot.
Lunchbox
Yeah. 14 matches.
Amy
And how long is it? How long is a match to 21?
Lunchbox
And then once you get to the metal round, it's best of 3 to 15.
Amy
Okay. I guess. Just typically, is there a time.
Lunchbox
And it's also pickleball, so everybody can relax and be like, pickleball's not a sport. Okay, I agree.
Bobby Bones
But it is a sport.
Lunchbox
But I don't care to fight anybody over it. It's just fun. And so I finished third.
Eddie
How long were you there?
Lunchbox
Four days.
Eddie
Like, what time did it start? Like 8:00am yeah.
Lunchbox
Whoa. Yeah.
Eddie
That's crazy.
Lunchbox
So, yeah, I got third place in my first pickleball tournament.
Amy
Nice job, man. And you, like, you're part of the science, the research now. That bronze is awesome. They say that bronze people feel better than silver people.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Amy
Olympians.
Lunchbox
My buddy, who I knew got second over me, but the only time we played, I beat him, so I still felt pretty good about that, too.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Yeah. But it was good. I had fun. I'm gonna probably play another one in a couple months or so, and then I plan to get better and take over the world.
Amy
Dominate.
Lunchbox
Yeah. So for a first tournament, I got a medal. I feel pretty good about it.
Scuba Steve
Pretty good.
Amy
You should.
Lunchbox
There's my life story. Amy.
Amy
Yeah, my weekend was sports related, too. Like, lots of games. My boyfriend's kid has lots of games. Lacrosse on Friday night, State champs. So that was pretty cool to be a part of that or see that win. And then basketball the rest of the weekend. And then packing. I'm going to LA for work, so I packed a lot.
Eddie
Another movie?
Amy
No.
Lunchbox
Dang. This is how she tells us she's in the new Black Panther.
Amy
No, but I'm going with my daughter, so that was fun. Like packing with her and getting everything ready. No, we're going to the Gracie Awards.
Lunchbox
I'm terrible at packing two days ahead of time because I 1. I have, like, 13 pair of underwear and two shirts. That's usually about how I pack. I never use all the underwear. I always need more shirts. And then regardless, if I pack two or three days ahead of time, I still go and unpack everything and make sure again, I just need to pack, like, three hours out. And then I always forget a charger of some sort. There's always one charger I forget, so. Yeah, that'll be good.
Amy
Well, it's super. We're gone. We're not even there for that long. And also packing was really easy.
Lunchbox
Lunchbox.
Scuba Steve
I got a serious Question. Over the weekend, I saw someone post again, marked off a bucket list item. I went to a concert at the Red Rocks. Is this the greatest place on earth? Am I missing something? Do I need to go to a concert at Red Rocks? Like, what is so special about this place? I see it all the time.
Lunchbox
You are really not concert Guy. But I'm not. I've never been, but I think it's just a really cool venue.
Amy
Yeah, in Colorado. I would say that. So my sister and her kids, they went to a concert there once, and she said it was the best concert of their. Like, all of them. They're the best concert of our life.
Scuba Steve
That's what I'm saying. Everybody that goes, I see them post, like, oh, my gosh. Finally did it. It's the best concert venue ever. This place is amazing.
Lunchbox
I think it's under the stars. It's cut out in a bunch of. Has anybody been though here?
Eddie
No.
Amy
No. I want to.
Producer Eddie
It's on my list, though, too.
Amy
Well, guys, we should go together.
Scuba Steve
Oh, here we go. So I just wondered if it was, like, something huge I'm missing out on in life because so many people post about it and say it's the greatest place ever.
Amy
Yeah.
Scuba Steve
But none of us have ever been.
Lunchbox
I don't think you're far away, Concert Guy, though.
Scuba Steve
No, I'm not.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but. So that would be, like, the greatest lacrosse stadium ever. Like, everybody that watches lacrosse loves lacrosse. You're not really lacrosse guys. I don't know if you appreciate it.
Amy
Right.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Amy
Is he venue guy, though?
Scuba Steve
I'm definitely not venue Guy. I don't know.
Lunchbox
I think you'd like it there. I have a bunch of friends that have played it, and it's really cool because it's, like, dug out of the rocks and it's the stars and Colorado.
Amy
Yeah, I think it's a whole vibe.
Scuba Steve
Is it, like. Is it the sound better? Because it's off rocks?
Lunchbox
I don't know. I don't know anything about how it sounds, Morgan.
Producer Eddie
Well, it's a little bittersweet for me, but I'm no longer a Jeep girl.
Lunchbox
No more Ducks.
Producer Eddie
No more ducks, no more Jeep.
Lunchbox
I've only ever known you with a Jeep.
Producer Eddie
I know. I mean, I've had a Jeep the whole time I've been working on this show, so this feels really crazy. I kind of had, like, shed a tear when I finally got rid of it.
Lunchbox
And you literally cried.
Producer Eddie
I had a tear. Like, it's just like. I feel like part of my identity was, like.
Lunchbox
It was Part of your identity. I agree. Yeah.
Producer Eddie
And I loved it.
Lunchbox
Part of your identity was how you saw out of all those ducks in the front glass.
Producer Eddie
Loved giving away ducks. I like ducking people. It was so much fun.
Lunchbox
Do you want to say what you have now? Cuz I do not know.
Producer Eddie
I have a Bronco.
Lunchbox
Oh, you got his cousin.
Producer Eddie
I did I get the cousin?
Lunchbox
Yeah. He stay in the family?
Producer Eddie
Yeah, and I already named her. Her name's Bandit.
Amy
Bandit? Bandit the Bronco.
Producer Eddie
Yeah, cuz one of my. My horses growing up was named Bandit.
Lunchbox
Know people that name their cars?
Scuba Steve
It's pretty stupid when you're 35.
Producer Eddie
Well, I'm 31, so I got.
Lunchbox
You got four years.
Scuba Steve
It's pretty dumb when you're this old. I.
Lunchbox
You said it. You got four years, Morgan. No names in four years, Eddie.
Eddie
So according to the federal government, I am now official. I have my real id.
Lunchbox
Baby, let me see your picture.
Eddie
Okay, check it out.
Lunchbox
So, because your other picture, it was not good.
Eddie
TSA did not like my old picture.
Lunchbox
Eddie had a massive beard and like, he looked like he was up to no good.
Eddie
So that's my old ID and my new id.
Lunchbox
Dude, it looks like you decided to shave all your body hair off for the second picture.
Eddie
The lady taking the picture, she goes, this looks like a whole different other person. Like, this does not look like you.
Lunchbox
Yeah, look at you. You got it. So I guess now you're real.
Eddie
I'm real. I got the little star on it. We're ready to travel.
Lunchbox
So I have mine, you have your. Who doesn't have the real ID yet?
Amy
I don't, but they approved all that paperwork I submitted, so I'm on some sort of a list.
Eddie
I guess. Amy's not going to la.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Producer Eddie
How are you going to la?
Amy
Passport.
Eddie
Okay, maybe.
Lunchbox
Have you located yours?
Amy
Yes, I keep it in the freezer. That's how I know. Always know where it is with my birth certificate, my Social Security card, and the meat.
Scuba Steve
Like, it doesn't wilt.
Amy
Like it's in a Ziploc bag in the freezer.
Lunchbox
Does it ever freeze?
Amy
No.
Lunchbox
You don't put it in like water?
Amy
Just cold to the touch.
Lunchbox
Some people put their credit cards in water and freeze it, so if they need it, they'll melt it.
Bobby Bones
I would think that'd be a weird.
Lunchbox
Thing to do with the passport. Like, I really need to consider, do I want to leave the country?
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
So now it's not in the water?
Amy
Nope.
Lunchbox
Okay. That's kind of weird though. I like it, but it's Weird.
Amy
Hey, it's like, it's. It has never let me down. It's consistent. For someone who often loses things, I always know where that stuff is. Right under the salmon.
Lunchbox
Between the popsicles and the salmon, for sure. All right, all right. Good. Sounds like everybody's doing pretty good. I'm surprised Morgan got rid of the Jeep. Of all the life stories, I'm surprised Morgan got rid of the Jeep the most.
Producer Eddie
I'm surprised with myself, too, but I'm also excited. The Bronco is really cool.
Lunchbox
The bronco people, like, do another toy.
Producer Eddie
No, I think they.
Lunchbox
They don't.
Amy
No, listen, my first car was a Bronco. I was a bronco way back in the day. Okay. So are they now? I feel like if they do that, they're just copying Jeep.
Eddie
Yeah. I feel like I've seen ducks on broncos.
Producer Eddie
There's a thing, I guess it's called bucking. And they do horses. Like, there's horse versions.
Lunchbox
Oh, Bronco. That makes sense. Like a bronco horse.
Producer Eddie
These are horses.
Lunchbox
I can't be doing this if she shows up with a funking bronco, like, stable on her. On her dash. Okay. All right. Good job, everybody. All right, we'll come back and do the news next.
Eddie
Bones.
Lunchbox
I want to start with the guys that escaped from the New Orleans jail on Friday, possibly with help from officials at the jail. This from CBS News. Three have been captured so far.
Amy
Ten inmates, some charged with murder, escaped, sparking an urgent citywide manhunt. The toilet dislodged from a cell wall. Exp. An opening scrawled on the wall above. We innocent and too easy. With an arrow toward the hole where they escaped out of view of the officer on duty. One of the 10 escapees captured before noon. Found hiding beneath a car at a hotel in the French Quarter. And moments ago, a second suspect caught with eight more still on the run.
Lunchbox
That first dude sucked at hiding. Hid under a car. Terrible. It also, I saw the picture of them where they ripped the toilet out. And they all, like, signed. Like, she said, sign little things. That's funny around the hole. And they escaped, and they wrote way.
Scuba Steve
Too easy or something like that.
Lunchbox
We gone.
Scuba Steve
Yeah. And one guy got busted because he went back to wherever he's from and went Instagram Live with his friends.
Lunchbox
He did Instagram live.
Scuba Steve
Instagram live. Like, I'm back on the block. I'm back on the block.
Eddie
Oh, my God.
Amy
What an idiot. I mean, probably that kind of idiocy that.
Lunchbox
Well, no, Amy's not gonna get you if they got him.
Eddie
Okay, you're good, Amy.
Lunchbox
Her fear is retaliation, always for anything. The idiocy is probably what ended up landing them in jail. Probably with. Yeah, once a two easy arrow, once at lol.
Scuba Steve
That's pretty funny. And the video of them running out.
Lunchbox
Of the gym, it's like they open the gates to the ballpark to run in and get. And everybody's just sprinting out to go.
Scuba Steve
And I will say the guys that are leaving, like three of them left their orange jumpsuit suits on. Guys. Everybody else was in white. Take off your orange jumpsuit, you stick out like a sore thumb.
Lunchbox
Or go into the woods and hold a shotgun. They'll be like, oh, just deer hunting, right?
Scuba Steve
Oh, didn't think about that.
Eddie
Orange.
Lunchbox
Yeah, that's what. That's. Next level thinking there. A New Jersey fireman exposes his wife's alleged infidelity during a family filled birthday celebration. Now this is from the New York Post. I'm curious, Amy, as to how you feel about this. A New Jersey firefighter who went viral for exposing his wife's cheating during a confrontation at his own birthday party is not reconciling with his better half. Insiders told the Post. Nick broke the Internet. You may have seen the video when he turned his 40th birthday party into basically the Jerry Springer show when he confronted his wife Samantha for cheating on him. The initial footage shows him with her. And the fireman took the microphone to tell the audience he's got something for her, even though it's his birthday, still got something for her, you know, because she's happy wife, happy life. But he goes, happy wife, happy life, bull into the microphone.
Amy
Wow.
Lunchbox
And then he pulled a ring box from his pocket. He then makes, and this was, I'm gonna say, strategically one of the best moves I've heard, even if you don't agree with how it was all done and recorded. This is one of the best strategic moves I've heard. So he pulls the box out and he makes her remove the wedding rings and hand them to him. He then kisses her on the mouth and then pushes her away.
Amy
Oh.
Lunchbox
And so he has the box, he has the rings. He goes, I blank and know everything. People are like awkwardly laughing, like, because they don't.
Eddie
Yeah, what's happening?
Lunchbox
And he goes, that's right, B, I know everything. Everybody's confused at this point. So he goes, I got you. And she's like, I don't know what you're talking about. And so he says, I'm gonna share. Share this with everybody. And so she Starts to walk away. He says, anybody who now sides with this piece of blank. And then he stayed behind the friends and, like, showed him all the stuff, all the, you know, evidence of her cheating.
Eddie
Oh, interesting. This is what he wanted for his birthday.
Scuba Steve
I love it.
Amy
Right.
Lunchbox
I think it was because everybody was gathered. Now, here's what I'm saying. That was strategically, was the best move. He. He now has the rings. He now has the rings. So there's no fight about the rings. He now has the rings.
Amy
Right.
Lunchbox
He made her take them off first, put him in the box before she knew what was happening. He now has the rings. There's no fight about the rings. If she's the one who cheated, he should get the rings. There's no her. Oh, possession, 19th law. It was a gift. Whatever. He's got it.
Amy
Yeah, I. I mean, I'm not a fan of handling it that way. Do they have kids? Do we know?
Lunchbox
It does not say they have kids. The whole thing was filmed and it was wild. I saw it. It was wild to watch. Yeah. I thought it was. Honestly, it was so over the top. I thought it was fake. You see Morgan.
Producer Eddie
Yeah. And he does have. They do have kids.
Lunchbox
They do have kids.
Amy
Okay, well, then this is completely. I cannot.
Lunchbox
Did you think it was fake when you first saw it?
Amy
No.
Producer Eddie
You could tell he was very upset. Like, I. At least if he's faking it. He's very good at faking emotions because that was intense.
Lunchbox
Anger is wild.
Eddie
Yeah.
Lunchbox
The kids think stuff that's always going to exist now and they're always going to see that.
Amy
Like, that's just like. You're thinking only of yourself in that situation.
Eddie
His birthday.
Amy
And you're right. You're publicly shaming like you're the mother of everything out there. Yes. And now your kids have to deal with that. It's gone completely viral. So now they're the ones at school with their parents that have this whole stuff. It's just not okay.
Lunchbox
The U. S. States where doctors are most likely to bungle your surgery.
Amy
Bungle.
Lunchbox
So you want to think twice before booking surgery in New York. They say from Daily Mail. That's according to analysis of a database attracts medical malpractice settlements. Analyzing more than 1 million claims filed from 2004 to 2024. The analysis showed the U.S. had an overall rate of about 313 payments per 1,000 providers following new York with Pennsylvania. And so it wasn't just total. It wasn't like. Like they had more than anybody else. It was per thousand. So Basically per capita, and I guess you'd use that here, but. So Pennsylvania's at 2, New Mexico was at 3, New Jersey was at 4, and Florida was 5th. And then the lowest was Alabama.
Amy
Oh, are there. I'm like trying to figure out what.
Lunchbox
Probably if. I'm guessing not as many cosmetic surgeries less happening there.
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Lunchbox
In states like Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, where we don't have a whole lot of money.
Amy
Yeah. But Florida, New York and Massachusetts or whatever.
Eddie
Yeah, they got money.
Lunchbox
Probably a little more disposable income in those states.
Amy
Wow.
Lunchbox
And then the biggest story of the weekend. Positive. Arkansas won the regional and they'll be playing the super regional softball next week against Ole Miss.
Amy
They also run one track.
Lunchbox
They won the sec. Yeah, yeah, yeah, the conference.
Eddie
Oh, that's good. Man.
Lunchbox
This is bigger than that, though. This is the regionals now. It's super regionals. And I don't have a brother in law that coaches track. Track.
Amy
Oh, I just saw the track and I thought that was cool. I was like, Bobby's got to be pumped.
Raymundo
They are.
Amy
The whole track team's out there doing the track.
Lunchbox
There's just indoor and there's outdoor.
Amy
This was outdoors.
Lunchbox
Yeah. There's just too much. I don't even know what's happening in track. Big go go. It's all about softball. I don't want to take the shine off the softball team because that's all America cares about right now. Everywhere I look, it's Razorback softball. All right, there you go. That's the news. Those were Bobby's big stories. Bobby Bone show. Bonehead story of the day.
Scuba Steve
This story comes to us from Charleston, South Carolina. A 25 year old man got in a text fight with his girlfriend. He's like, ah, I need to lighten the mood. Let me pull a prank. So he sneaks into her house, gets a knife, hides in the shower.
Bobby Bones
Love a good knife prank.
Scuba Steve
Puts a thing over his face, waits in the shower, she comes home and he jumps out with a knife and fake stabs her.
Amy
Oh, my gosh.
Eddie
That's messed up.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's dramatic.
Amy
Like her life is.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I don't love a knife prank, by the way. For the. For the record, I was kidding.
Eddie
This was a friendly prank.
Bobby Bones
I think he probably thinks she would think it was funny later.
Amy
Yeah. But like she'll never feel safe again.
Bobby Bones
What's. What's the deal?
Scuba Steve
It is now his ex girlfriend and he was charged with breaking and entering and numerous other assault and battery with.
Bobby Bones
Wait, did he actually stab her?
Scuba Steve
No, but he failed.
Amy
Fake stab.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but I don't think that feels.
Amy
Like assault and battery, but on her nervous system.
Lunchbox
Yeah, that ain't assault and batteries.
Scuba Steve
And then they called it possession of a weapon during a violent crime, even though he didn't really stab her.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so she must add something against him because she's pressing a lot of charges for a badly thought prank. That's a bad. It's a terrible prank. But if I did that to my wife, she ain't pressing all those charges against me.
Eddie
She wouldn't be happy.
Bobby Bones
No, but she ain't pressing all those.
Lunchbox
Charges against me, though.
Amy
At the start of it, though, did you say they were in a fight?
Bobby Bones
They were in a fight.
Scuba Steve
He wanted to lighten the mood.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
What lightens the mood? Like, listen, it's a dumb prank, but there had to be much, much more to it if all those charges are being pressed. Yeah, because you don't get that by just putting a mask on and scaring someone, by the way. Don't do that. But you don't get all that by that. Anything else about their fight, they say.
Lunchbox
Like, I'm gonna kill you with a.
Bobby Bones
Mask and a knife or anything in that text.
Scuba Steve
No, nothing like that. Like, hey, watch your back, or anything. Nothing like that. Or wash your back. Nothing.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, which is what Lunchbox claimed he said one day right when he threatened Abby. No charges, though, because it sounded like wash your back. All right, there you go.
Scuba Steve
I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day, Bones.
Bobby Bones
All right, we'll see you tomorrow. Bye, everybody.
Morgan
