Hey, I hope you had a great weekend.
Bobby Bones
Welcome to Monday's show Morning Studio.
Lunchbox
Morning Bones.
Morgan
Do you like lobsters to eat them? I would hope. What else are you going to do with them?
Amy
Well, yes, I think lobster's okay. I don't have it often but if I do a Dip it in a lot of butter. Sure, it's good, but I'm not like a. Oh, I can't wait to go get some lobster person.
Morgan
Lobster feels fancy.
Ray
Yeah.
Morgan
And mostly because growing up, once a year went to Red Lobster. That was the highlight of the year. It was awesome. It's like our special Arkansas Keith would take us. The lobster's still fancy to you guys?
Ray
Oh, yeah.
Morgan
Okay, good. High dollar research shows that lobsters do feel pain.
Ray
Oh, have you never heard of, like, when they put them in the pot
Morgan
and they cry, but forever it was. They didn't feel pain. You boy, you'd boil a lobster. They didn't feel pain.
Amy
What do you mean? They cry?
Ray
Oh, you can hear them.
Morgan
Well, that also could be the air into the shell. There were a lot of reasons that they said you would hear that sound. The lobster didn't go, no, not me.
Ray
It's talking.
Morgan
But it was.
Amy
There was like a whistle.
Ray
Sure. Yeah.
Morgan
Now they're saying lobsters feel pain in a manner similar to that of other animals. And the traditional method for killing the crustacean is boiling them, which is just suffering. So no one is saying we can't eat animals anymore.
Amy
Can't we sedate them?
Morgan
But. But they're calling for a legal ban of boiling them. And I don't hate it.
Ray
What's the difference then? What's the other option?
Morgan
Like you would kill their head off. Yeah, like you would kill anything else.
Amy
Oh, my gosh.
Morgan
But then imagine if you boiled a cow and you watched it just suffer and boil.
Ray
No, that'd be terrible.
Morgan
That's my.
Ray
I see what you're saying.
Morgan
Yeah. So.
Ray
But there's a cooking method, I think, to that, right? There's like a reason why they boil it because it's better for the cook.
Morgan
I'm sure. But that doesn't matter if it were boiling a cow, we wouldn't do that. If it's better for the cook.
Ray
I got you.
Morgan
So I am pro. Don't boil lobsters. I just wish I didn't eat animals at all.
Amy
Me too.
Morgan
God dang. I love meat, though.
Amy
Me too. Yeah, I love a burger.
Morgan
I mean, I got a freaking sausage over here and I'm just licking it. It's awesome. Yeah, I know.
Ray
Can you imagine if we had to kill our own animals to eat them? Like, I wonder what that would be like, being normal.
Morgan
That would be my life age 6 to 13.
Ray
I know, but you would kill the animal and then that's what you would eat every day.
Morgan
A lot of the day. Sure.
Amy
Squirrel.
Morgan
Squirrel, deer. I mean, that's how we ate fish.
Ray
And you didn't care much about it. Like, you just kind of. That was just part of it. You kill it and you eat it.
Amy
When that's how you grow up, it doesn't seem that weird.
Morgan
Yeah, everybody hunted in Mount Pine. Everybody ate what they killed. And if you killed more than you could put in the freezer, you gave it away so other people could eat. I don't know. To me, it wasn't that weird. I don't do that now. I don't hunt now. I don't want to kill an animal now. But I completely understand. And hunted for a massive part of my life. I am not. I'm not down with boiling lobsters. Only I didn't care. I didn't eat lobsters anyway. But no more boiling lobsters. I can. I can join on this. It's just the suffering part.
Ray
Yeah. It's ridiculous that we think that some animal doesn't feel pain. Like, to even think that. Like. Like some people, they'd be like, oh, yeah, fish, they don't feel anything. Like, you kidding me? They have to.
Morgan
To settle the argument, a team of researchers examined how the behavior of Norway lobsters changed if the creatures were given painkillers. In the study, electrical shocks considered painful in humans were administered to the lobsters. When the shocks were delivered to lobsters that had not been treated with painkillers, they attempted to escape. They felt it. They flipped their tails. However, when lobsters were injected with aspirin or had lidocaine dissolved in water, no escaped attempts. So what that showed is the painkiller actually made a difference, so there was pain.
Amy
So this is what we would do. Sedate them a little bit and then boil them.
Morgan
I don't know if that's what they're saying. I think they're just proving by that method that lobsters do feel pain.
Amy
Because then. What if we eat the lobster and then we can't fill our face because
Ray
we have the solution. That's true. We don't want that.
Lunchbox
Exactly.
Ray
Can't feel our faith.
Morgan
There is a less painful way. You stun the lobster by putting it in the freezer. You're telling me put it to sleep?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Morgan
This is what I'm now anti. Anti. Eating lobster. I've been changed. No, let's not do. Unless there's a way to, like, twist the head.
Ray
Yeah. Make it.
Amy
But then when it comes out on the plate, isn't that part of it sometimes to have, like, the whole lobster?
Morgan
I'm okay with that not being part of it.
Amy
Me, too, but okay.
Morgan
So it says, stun the lobster by putting in a 35 Fahrenheit or below freezer. 15, 30 minutes. Okay, so you're freezing it. Place the lobster belly down. Locate the small cross or indention on the back of the head. Drive a sharp knife or screwdriver through the point until you hit the other side of the shell.
Amy
No.
Morgan
Locate the small hole, repeat the process. Return the lobster to the freezer to ensure it's humanely euthanized. Guys, New York Post.
Amy
This sounds terrible.
Ray
This is what has to be done.
Morgan
Amy doesn't have to be done. Did I just turn into a vegan? Did this segment turn me into a vegan? Hello, Bobby Bones. I've been dating my boyfriend for about a year. Overall, good guy. But there's something that's starting to bother me. He lies about the most random, unnecessary things. Like, I'll say, you ever see a certain TV show? And he says, yes, but later it's obvious he hasn't. Or I'll catch him saying, he didn't nap when I saw him asleep earlier. Even stuff like what he ate that day, he just says something for no reason. They're not big lies. They don't seem harmful. But it happens pretty often. And I don't understand why someone would lie about things that truly does not matter. Now I'm starting to wonder if he's lying about small stuff this easily, does that mean he'd lie about bigger things, too? Is this a red flag signed girlfriend
Bobby Bones
of a white liar?
Morgan
Anybody have an instant reaction? What do you have?
Amy
Well, I. I don't think that because he lies about the little things that makes the bigger things lies as well, or I don't think that's the case.
Morgan
I agree.
Amy
I. I do think this is something, maybe, and I'm not an expert, but stemming from his childhood. And he. It's a hat. Like it's something he got into and a habit. And so I do think there's hope for breaking that. But it would have to be brought to his attention, and he would have to want to change it. And that's hard to do, to confront him about that stuff. But if. If he took a nap and, you know, he took a nap, and then he's telling you just to take a nap. That is really difficult to process. It sounds like stuff. As parents, sometimes we deal with kids like, why are you lying about the stupidest stuff ever? I know what it is. But as parents, we try to call it out. And we try to break the habit so they don't continue to do it. And I, I have, I know kids that have done it as a control thing, A, A, a protective thing. Like even it's the silliest thing, but at least they can have control of the narrative and it's something you want to break. But he's an adult, so that's hard.
Morgan
Completely agree. I don't think it means he's lying about big things. You haven't caught him lying about big things. I also completely agree with everything you just said. I used to do that as a kid and mostly it was the small things that didn't make me seem as vulnerable. It could be the smallest of things. I didn't have a lot of control over my life as a kid. But no, I didn't nap. I didn't need a nap. Or yeah, I ate. Even if I didn't. They, to me, they were very meaningful in that instant because it did not show the vulnerability that I felt like I was not allowed to show.
Amy
Right.
Morgan
But it does, it does feel like trauma. White lies more than anything else. So he is an adult. If it's not been broken, it will not be broken. It doesn't just go away because you're an adult. I think we probably had this a little bit with my wife when I first we started dating.
Bobby Bones
I didn't realize I was doing it,
Morgan
but yeah, I think it's something you talk about. I think it's.
Amy
So how does he bring it up? Because yeah, I think, I think it's a she.
Morgan
Right? She to he.
Amy
She. Yes. So how does she bring it up to him?
Morgan
I don't know. It's. Yeah, because the worst thing you want someone to feel is defensive. And if you're like, you're lying about
Amy
this, maybe it's like. Cuz I've had to do this with one of my kids once and it's like, I get it, we've all lied. Like lying is a part of life. And so maybe you meet them where they are a little bit so they don't feel like they're the only one that are doing this.
Ray
Could you say, do you realize that you're doing.
Morgan
Yeah, I'm defensive.
Amy
Okay. Hey, I'm curious. Like it, it's interesting to me. And, and I, I want us to have a good connection and I'm having a hard time. If I, if I saw you napping and I know you nap and then I'm defensive.
Morgan
You think, okay, it's almost impossible.
Amy
I think third party Third party.
Morgan
I think if. If he. If he has a therapist.
Amy
Yeah.
Morgan
It could be as easily as what you said. You can be defensive, but without demanding any sort of retort.
Amy
Yeah.
Morgan
Meaning you can say that, but you don't need anything back from him. You're like, hey, I. You a nap. I know you napped. Will you talk to your therapist about why you do that? That way there's no fight. There's no conflict between you two. You're not demanding anything of him. He doesn't need to be defensive in any sort of argument. But he can then go, oh, he then knows, you know, and that's something he could talk about. If he has therapist.
Amy
Yeah. If he doesn't have one, get him one.
Morgan
If he doesn't have one, it. He just may have to be defensive.
Amy
Or y'.
Morgan
All.
Amy
Or you need to.
Morgan
It just may have to be a defensive situation, but you don't want to put them there to begin with.
Amy
What about. Would the intentional dialogue script work here? Because that's.
Morgan
Somebody pulls it out.
Bobby Bones
Boyfriend.
Morgan
But I have noticed it's short.
Amy
It's short.
Morgan
What I just don't want her to do is think he's lying about big things.
Guest / Listener
Right.
Morgan
I think that's our whole point with this. You could probably find a lot from actually actual experts to help you on what Amy's saying. Not a script, but a situation to walk through. But I do not think he's cheating on you. I do not think he's plotting to murder your mom. I don't think there's anything. Red flag happening.
Ray
No.
Amy
Because what I've seen with this is most times it's.
Morgan
I used to be that kid is why I say that.
Amy
Insignificant things.
Morgan
It's only insignificant things.
Amy
And the other things there. Great.
Morgan
Yes. Yes.
Amy
So it's like what make it make sense. And you can't. You can't. Right? Because it's. It's there.
Morgan
It's based in trauma.
Amy
Yeah. Yep.
Morgan
Now, if you do catch him in a big lie, what we wrong. And he sucks. But I feel like just from what you told us all good. Like walk through it together and have.
Amy
Complete with compassion. Because.
Morgan
And then live act. See how that feels about, like, normal crap, too.
Lunchbox
You like that?
Morgan
How you like them apples?
Ray
That sucks.
Lunchbox

Morgan

Guest / Listener
You can. This one came to me, like, super last minute, but I was thinking of Morgan Evans. Chris Evans. We got a lot of people. The last name Evans.
Lunchbox
Oh, man.
Guest / Listener
Evans feels pretty strong to me. So I think I'm going to go with Evans.
Lunchbox
Oh, man. I don't like it.
Ray
There's no Evans.
Lunchbox
I mean, it's not it. You know what, here's what's funny. Chris Evans and Morgan Evans, I believe they're foreign. They're not American.
Morgan
Ah, okay.
Lunchbox
So I, I'm, I'm just saying I don't know a lot of Evans in America.
Morgan
All right.
Lunchbox
But I could be wrong.
Morgan
All right, cool. Show me Evans. Yes. Yes. Chris Evans is an American actor born in Boston, Massachusetts.
Lunchbox
Oh, you know what? I'm thinking about the Hemsworth people.
Ray
Yeah, you were wrong.

Lunchbox
I mean, you didn't even tell me if I'm supposed to fast, if I'm. I mean, there may be medical reasons and I may not be able to do it today.
Amy
You're fine.
Morgan
Sounds like an excuse.
Ray
I will tell you, I woke up feeling great today.
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah?
Ray
Yeah.
Morgan
Well, all the listeners out there, you should know Lunchbox and Eddie fight over who has the most testosterone. So we thought we would do a public service and find out and then also share the benefits of making sure you're taken care of. I gotta find, like, a way to make this, like, positive. So, Amy, what happened? Who do we have?
Amy
So we have the guys. You feel good about this? I told y' all there was a guy coming. I thought maybe didn't know his exact role. Is he a nurse? Is he a first responder? Emt? He's a paramedic. So a male paramedic. I know they probably wanted a hot nurse.
Lunchbox
I would have loved a hot nurse.
Amy
A male paramedic named Chad.
Lunchbox
Oh, God.
Amy
Is coming. And I wouldn't want to make enemies
Morgan
with someone about to poke you with a knee, right?
Lunchbox
Yeah, but I mean, God, I mean. But I don't. I mean, it feels weird with Chad grabbing my arm and, you know, rolling up my sleeve.
Morgan
Sexual to you to give blood.
Amy
Wait, I bet he's going to tie a. Tie a thing around his arm.
Morgan
Like, I wanted it to be hot.
Ray
Oh, no, I understand. He's worried that his testosterone will go down when he sees Chad.
Amy
Oh, my gosh. What if it goes up?
Bobby Bones
No, guys, it's not that.
Ray
Oh, it's not?
Morgan
No.
Ray
He sees Chad and it's skyrocketing.
Show Outro / Theme Voice
No, no.
Morgan
You guys are so weird.
Bobby Bones
That's not.
Morgan
That's not testosterone.
Lunchbox
I don't know what you guys are about.
Ray
Maybe it's a good thing Chad's coming. Lunch bar.
Bobby Bones
Do you know.
Amy
Yeah.
Morgan
Do you know how long it takes? Like, after he comes and gets their blood, how many days he has?
Amy
Oh, let me find that out.
Morgan
Okay.
Amy
How long for us to get the results? Yeah, good question.
Ray
I would think it would take a while, right? Not like.
Amy
I mean, when I got mine done in two days.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
I gotta take it to the tea bank.
Amy
Well, they're. Yeah, they're sending it off and then there's no.
Morgan
There's no testosterone bank. Yes, there is a lab.
Ray
They call it the lab.
Morgan
Yeah, yeah. There's no testosterone bank where it's just. Everybody's testosterone's there. But the goal will be to see who has a higher testosterone. Lunchbox or Eddie. And our. The bets are in. Amy. Thanks. Lunchbox.

Ray
Hey.
Bobby Bones
Mike.
Morgan
Lunchbox.
Bobby Bones
Ray.
Lunchbox
Eddie. Oh, man.
Ray
We're even.
Lunchbox
Oh, Eddie. Well, that was rude, Right?
Morgan
Scuba Steve.
Lunchbox
I think Eddie, just because he. Because of. We're very similar, and I think with the loss of hair and everything.
Sound Effect / Interjection
I don't know.
Ray
Amy was saying that if you have hair loss and you're Whatever.
Morgan
One of the signs. So Eddie has more signs. Just because. Let's probably say the deep voice means nothing.
Ray
It doesn't mean nothing.
Lunchbox
Exactly.
Morgan
I don't know that it means nothing. He's always had a deep voice.
Amy
Eddie can barely wake up up and face the day.
Ray
That's true. That's true.
Lunchbox
My libido is off the charts.
Ray
Mine, though. My libido.
Morgan
You two should get together.
Lunchbox
I'm good.
Morgan
You can fix that with each other.
Abby
Abby, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I really think.
Amy
Lunchbox. Wait. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Morgan
Is that three? Three.
Amy
Wait.
Morgan
Okay. I. I think you're the tiebreaker here. Yeah, but it's. I'm not picking it, but I think it's probably going to be Lunchbox.
Lunchbox
What?
Morgan
Boom. Why?
Amy
Why not?
Lunchbox
I scream testosterone. No, you don't.
Amy
Guys.
Ray
You're just.
Bobby Bones
Basically just a deep voice.
Lunchbox
The deep voice.
Morgan
It's the deep voice and the hair.
Bobby Bones
He's hairy.
Amy
No, but it's. Lack of hair on the head is higher.
Lunchbox
T. Correct. Nah, it's. Hair loss is a sign of lighty.
Amy
No, it's chest hair.
Morgan
Question. Are either one of you impotent?
Ray
No. Oh, Lunchbox didn't answer.
Lunchbox
I don't know what that is, so I can't answer.
Morgan
He doesn't know.
Amy
Is that.
Ray
Hey, is that when you can't.
Morgan
Yeah.
Ray
No Good kiss.
Morgan
Levitas are good.
Ray
All good.
Morgan
Okay.
Guest / Listener
Yeah, I think I might want to change now that I'm seeing the common symptoms, because you got acne, increased body hair, mood swings, sleep apnea, and reduced fertility. This guy can fall asleep anywhere and he has mood swings.
Ray
This is for high tea.
Abby
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Unexpected hair loss or thinning, especially on the body face, or general reduction in scalp hair can be a very big sign of low tea.
Morgan
Oh, wow. Oh, I thought. Yeah. High testosterone symptoms are acne. Anybody got any zits?
Ray
Nope.
Amy
No, I'm starting to get some from my testosterone.
Morgan
You are. Increased body hair, mood swings, like Morgan said.
Ray
And mood swings. Lunchbox got.
Morgan
He does have that.
Commercial Announcer
Yeah.
Ray
Chest hair lunchbox.
Morgan
Yeah, it's.
Ray
It's a pet.
Morgan
It's like taco meat. Yeah, that's okay. It is what it is.
Ray
Yeah.
Morgan
If you, like, took a taco and just dumped the meat out of the shell on somebody's chest, that's what his looks like.
Ray
Oh, interesting.
Morgan
So we a paramedic coming by today after the show.
Amy
Paramedic.
Lunchbox
I hope he's bringing the truck. He better be bringing the truck to
Morgan
draw you guys blood.
Amy
Okay, I think he's walking over because
Morgan
his office is right over there.
Ray
No ambulance
Morgan
familiar with Crime Stoppers? Yeah, call. Tell somebody what's up.
Amy
Yeah, I think Lunchbox called them on me.
Bobby Bones
Why did he call them on you?
Amy
Because I was driving with a fired license.
Morgan
Oh, boy. Okay, well, he. Lunchbox has also called them again.
Amy
Oh, my gosh. This is his hobby.
Morgan
So he called Crime Stoppers, which I didn't even know you can just call a number.
Bobby Bones
Do you guys want to guess why
Morgan
you call Crime Stoppers? Because I have the audio of his call to Crime Stoppers.
Ray
I have a guess.
Lunchbox
Go.
Ray
He saw someone not wearing a seatbelt.
Morgan
No, it has to do with somebody on the show. He called him on the show.
Amy
Okay. What is this his thing?
Morgan
Yes. He wants to call Crime Stoppers on us and get one of us arrested.
Amy
If he called them on me again, I can't imagine.
Lunchbox
What are you gonna do?
Morgan
I don't know for what reason.
Amy
That's what. I'm not doing anything illegal.
Morgan
Okay. Crime Stoppers, anybody?
Ray
He said he was. He saw me speeding outside the ramp. I don't know. Maybe he saw me speeding again.
Amy
I mean, he said that I speed up and down the ramp.
Lunchbox
And you admitted to it.
Morgan
He's like the hall monitor.
Ray
Really is.
Morgan
He thinks he's the hall monitor.
Amy
Speed on the ramp. You have to move cautiously.
Morgan
Lunchbox. Why'd you call Crime Stoppers?
Lunchbox
Because I wanted them to pull over Morgan. Because she was driving with vertigo, and she admitted that she was being an unsafe driver, that she can't turn left or right, so it's hard for her to see left or right. So how is she driving every day to work? She was driving with vertigo.
Morgan
But none of what you said is true. She never said I can't turn left or right.
Lunchbox
No, she did. In the studio. She does this.
Guest / Listener
Said I have to turn carefully.
Lunchbox
I mean, and when you're driving, you can't be carefully turning to look at.
Guest / Listener
I thought you want me to be careful while driving.
Morgan
Here's Launchbox calling Crime Stoppers to turn Morgan in to try to get her arrested. Go ahead.
Sound Effect / Interjection
Hello, this is Crime Stoppers. How can I help you?
Lunchbox
Yes, man, I was just calling because I need to report a crime about an unsafe driver, and I was hoping you guys could bust her.
Sound Effect / Interjection
What? What's the crime that she's committing?
Lunchbox
She's driving while impaired. She has vertigo. And I sit next to her at work, and she can't even turn to her right or left. But she is driving her Ford Bronco to work every day, which is unsafe on the road.
Sound Effect / Interjection
Okay, I don't know if we've got a specified crime here or not. She has vertigo, which is something that people get naturally. She's not on any kind of narcotics or.
Morgan
Right, right.
Lunchbox
No, I understand that, but it's still unsafe driving. I. I think that she should be taking an Uber, a Lyft. She should have her fiance driver, and she leaves work around noon every day. And it's a white Ford Bronco, and the license plate is caged.
Sound Effect / Interjection
Well, we would have to work with the police on that, and then I could get my reward.
Lunchbox
Once you guys work with the police, you guys give me the Reward money.
Sound Effect / Interjection
We do offer reward money for.
Lunchbox
I mean, it's basically a dui. I mean, it's driving while, you know, impaired.
Morgan
All right.
Sound Effect / Interjection
Really promise a reward, she gets arrested.
Lunchbox
All right, thank you so much. I'll look for that 5,000.
Morgan
Just a couple. Couple things to unpack here.
Bobby Bones
One year.
Morgan
Tattletale.
Lunchbox
Am I?
Morgan
Yeah, I twice said it.
Ray
Yes.
Lunchbox
I think I'm trying to keep everybody safe around the city.
Morgan
I think that she made the decision that it was safe for her to drive.
Lunchbox
She can barely walk down the hall. She has to walk so slow, like it's not safe.
Morgan
But she said that's when she's walking, when she's sitting, she's good.
Lunchbox
So, Morgan, tell me, was it hard to look left and right?
Guest / Listener
Yeah, I used my whole body when I did it. It just looked differently than it normally does.
Ray
So it is kind of hard to move left and right in a car, you know, like your seat belt on,
Morgan
but if you're in a neck brace, then you can't drive.
Ray
No, I would say no.
Morgan
What do you think about that call?
Amy
I mean, I think it's ridiculous. She. I don't think Morgan would put herself or anyone else in jeopardy.
Abby
She.
Amy
Clearly. It's difficult to drive, but she's able to do it.
Morgan
Do you not feel weird about calling, like, 911 and Crime Stoppers just in general, like, wasting people's time?
Lunchbox
No, because I think I'm doing a good thing for the community. I am a.
Ray
What?
Lunchbox
What is that?
Ray
Vigilante man.
Lunchbox
Vigilante. A community helper, community watch, whatever. I think I'm doing that.
Morgan
They ever get back to you?
Lunchbox
No, I haven't heard from.
Ray
That's crazy, though. They'll pay you if it leads to an arrest.
Lunchbox
It does.
Ray
No matter what the.
Morgan
He just thought it was $5,000 for some reason. Is that the standard?
Lunchbox
I see that on TV sometimes. Like a murderer or something. They're like, oh, $5,000 leading to the.
Amy
Whoever's arresting specific.
Morgan
Is there a crime stoppers, like, 1-800-number? Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Oh, there is. And how did you find it?
Lunchbox
You just go to Crime Stoppers, and it gives you the number.
Ray
Where do you go to Crime Stoppers.
Lunchbox
Is it a buildingstoppers.com?
Morgan
it's rare. That lunchbox suggests a guest, and he also feels like he can actually bring the guest to the show. And so I like for everybody to be open about this.
Ray
Okay.
Morgan
I feel. Oh, our hearts are open. Our minds are open.
Amy
Yeah.
Morgan
We're welcoming toward his suggestion. We're not gonna make Any rash. Everybody good, right?
Ray
Yeah. Yeah.
Morgan
Okay. You know he's up to something, right?
Ray
Of course.
Lunchbox
Always wait up to something. I think this guest would be perfect for our show. Go ahead, write in our demographic. You want me to name their name?
Bobby Bones
Well, why are they coming to town?
Lunchbox
They're doing two different shows in town. They're making appearances right over down the street at Zany's, the comedy club. And I think they would be perfect to come sit on our studio on that couch and we interview this person.
Morgan
What would you talk to him about, you think?
Lunchbox
Just life. Maybe send them on a coffee date.
Ray
Send them on a coffee date?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Amy
Oh, my gosh.
Morgan
What?
Amy
Oh, my gosh. No, no, no, guys. No, no. Yeah, I know where you're. No, you said Zanies and date. And now I know. And now I know.
Lunchbox
Oh, I got.
Ray
I got it. This is great.
Amy
This is not.
Morgan
Who is it?
Lunchbox
Jeremy Piven is coming to town in less than three weeks. Like, we are, like, next month, middle of next month. He will be here for two days. And I was like, oh, my goodness. We bring him in, sit him down. Amy has that look in her eye. He looks at her. He's like, I know you. It would be.
Morgan
I think he would know when he comes in.
Amy
I don't know.
Ray
He's probably already DM'd Amy, like, hey, I'm coming into town in, like, two weeks.
Amy
So he doesn't know where I live,
Morgan
guys, for new listeners or people that didn't hear.
Lunchbox
Yeah. So a couple weeks ago, Amy was at a red carpet event in Austin and for some podcast awards, and Jeremy Piven was walking the red carpet, and he later DM'd Amy and said, 1, 2. Amy said, 3, 4. And then he said, you want to grab some coffee? And Amy never responded, I don't think. Unless you did and didn't tell us.
Morgan
By the way, he was on Entourage for a long time. Actor. He was on Seinfeld way back in the day, too.
Ray
Yeah, he was.
Morgan
It was like the George Costanza actor. So you don't want to come in?
Amy
Justice, you're breaking.
Morgan
Are you rational?
Amy
Okay, well, I. Yeah, I'm fine. It's just. Yeah. And then I feel bad that I don't think. I didn't ever reply, but I do think he thinks that I live in Austin because that's where he was gonna be when he was like, hey, coffee date.
Lunchbox
Oh, what a great surprise. Then when he finds out, wow, she's actually in Nashville, and I'm gonna be here for two nights. You could Save him on a hotel room. He would have to pay for one.
Morgan
Just stay. Yeah, stay at the house.
Lunchbox
You got an extra bedroom.
Amy
That is not happening.
Ray
Yeah, I haven't lunchbox. I think you messed up.
Morgan
You never responded. No.
Ray
Why? We should have just booked them and not told Amy.
Amy
Oh, my God. I would have. What would have been so crazy is if y' all booked him and he came in and he never put two and two together.
Lunchbox
That's why it's funny. It's a test.
Amy
I mean, that would be.
Morgan
So we'll see if he really loves you.
Amy
I don't think it's love, but that would be interesting because that's the thing. Like, he's been famous for a very long time. Who knows how many girls he meets at events and DMs, so probably one in a million.
Morgan
No, look, if you're the only one he's ever done that to, and he's so sad because he never got a response.
Amy
I just don't think that that's. I don't think it. It's not like he's even circled back. Hey, did you. Did you get this?
Morgan
Okay, that's pride, though. Yeah.
Lunchbox
And, Amy, if you're not gonna have. If we're not gonna have him in here, then we have you a ticket to the show. You have to go. You have to go to go to
Morgan
Zany and you have to sit in the front row.
Amy
Okay. Again, I think he'd be. I don't know that he would put two and two together. Because also, when your mind thinks someone lives somewhere else, you're not thinking you're going to go to Nashville and then see them. Also, he doesn't know that I'm in radio. Well, my handles radio, Amy, on Instagram.
Lunchbox
So you probably look at your pictures.
Ray
Yeah.
Morgan
Yeah.
Amy
I don't. Bobby. No, that would be awkward.
Morgan
She said no.
Lunchbox
So you're going to be open minded.
Ray
Yeah. And what if we just. What if, like, our listeners want to hear an interview with him? Can you put your personal life aside for our listeners?
Amy
Yes, I can go to the green room.
Morgan
No. Oh, you. You step out during the interview, Amy.
Amy
Well, just because now it's. I've made it awkward. I put that on me. I made it awkward by not replying at all because I got a little nervous and then I didn't know what to do. And it.
Morgan
Just consider it.
Ray
It's never too late. Can she reply now and be like, hey, I see you're coming to Zany's?
Amy
Well, yeah. Again, he doesn't know where I live. They'll be like, oh, hey, it looks. I could say it looks as though. You think? Because he did invite me to his comedy show in San Antonio and he put road trip. The only way that's a road trip is if he thinks I live in. So I could say, oh, looks as it appears as though you think I live in Austin, but guess what? I live in Nashville.
Morgan
It appears weeks later he said all
Ray
that, but she never responded. Wow, I'm confused about the conversation.
Morgan
Hey, when you're a hot lady, okay, and you got dudes coming at you all the time, what else to do?
Amy
Our conversation was, check, 1, 2. I replied, 3, 4. And then after that, I guess I got freaked out because later he goes, good seeing you. And then he sent a screenshot of his show in like a poster for his show in San Antonio. Road trip, exclamation point.
Morgan
Maybe he just wants you to buy tickets. Like, ticket sales are low.
Amy
I sent nothing. So then two days after that, he goes, anyway, coffee next week. Nothing.
Morgan
Oh, dang. He fought his pride once to go anyway. Yeah. Yeah.
Amy
Okay.
Morgan
Just think about it. Okay, you thought about it. You're good.
Amy
Oh, we can talk about it.
Morgan
Okay, fair enough. We can talk about it. I mean, is that what we're doing now?
Ray
What else are you gonna talk about?
Amy
Bobby and I can talk about it offline.
Morgan
Fair enough.
Lunchbox
We want to be in the decision making. Okay, well, we'll check.
Morgan
We'll check back on this soon.

Show Outro / Theme Voice
Wake up, wake up in the morning. Then you turn the radio on and the dial just keeps on turning. Then you hear Eddie, Emmy, Lunchbox, Morgan too, Scooby, Steve, Red habit trying to put you through. Bobby's on the mic. So you know what this is? This is the Bobby Bone store.
Morgan
Now time for the morning corny.
Lunchbox
The morning corny.
Amy
Why are diamonds always so tense?
Morgan
Why are diamonds always so tense?
Amy
Because they're under a lot of pressure.
Morgan
Got it.
Lunchbox
That was the morning corny bones.
Bobby Bones
Let's go to Carrie, who lives in Oregon.
Morgan
You know we were talking about that Teacher Appreciation Week. Remember the segment? And then I talked about a lot of jobs that come to my mind. Like thankless jobs that should be appreciated more. So Carrie's on and Carrie, you want to say a little something?
Caller / Listener
911 dispatchers and you named all great. All great things like especially like the linemen. All the people that we work with every day that don't always get appreciated. And you named officers and firefighters. But 911 dispatchers are also first responders.
Amy
That's true. We. We need to hold on.
Morgan
No, I'm all good with Saying maybe I don't understand. So I don't appreciate as much as I should.
Bobby Bones
Absolutely.
Morgan
They got to be focused. Whenever things aren't going good, when you
Amy
call them, they answer. They're responding first.
Morgan
No, they're not going. Going to the scene. I, And I could be.
Amy
Sometimes they talk through the scene.
Morgan
I hear you.
Amy
Maybe they, the, the first responders that are going to be on the scene aren't getting there, so they need to walk someone through how to do CPR or how to handle the situation. Like, they're, they're virtual first responders.
Morgan
Okay. I can accept virtual first responders. Yeah, I don't, I, I feel like if you're on a phone, though, that's not a first responder.
Amy
Yeah, but you're, you're, you're respond. Hello, first respond.
Morgan
But if you call me then, and I respond to you, well, you're.
Amy
But that's not your. This is their day to day, and I respect it.
Morgan
I don't want to be the person that doesn't. I respect it completely.
Amy
They have to keep the person calm. They have to stay calm. They may have to tell them a laundry list of things to do.
Morgan
My wife does all those things to me, stays calm, keeps me calm, tells me things to do.
Amy
Right. But I, I'm, I, I can get behind first responder, however you want to put it.
Guest / Listener
Virtual.
Morgan
Maybe my definition of respond is wrong because to me, respond is you go in person. Maybe respond is just an emergency response even spoken.
Amy
Yes, because you're. And you're the one dispatching the first responder that goes in person.
Morgan
He's itching. He's.
Lunchbox
So If I call 911 because I see an emergency, am I a first responder? Like, I mean, I'm.
Amy
No, you're a note. You're a notifier.
Lunchbox
I'm, I'm on the call. I'm saying this is what we need. Telling them what's going down, describing the situation. I am getting the help there. So I responded to the scene first.
Morgan
Okay, let me read a definition. A first responder is a person with specialized training who is among the first to arrive and provide a sentence or incident resolution at the scene of emergencies.
Lunchbox
There you go.
Morgan
First responders typically include law enforcement officers, emergency medical services, fire service members.
Lunchbox
What about those?
Amy
So keyword there is arrive.
Morgan
I did not search virtual first responders.
Amy
Check that out, see if there's something.
Morgan
And listen, I, I'm sure I don't have the understanding of what 911 dispatchers are going through and how difficult. That is how stressful that is. And they got to remain calm. And I don't take anything away from that. So that's not my job. That's not my goal here. Carrie, how do you feel about that?
Caller / Listener
That was a huge fail, but thanks.
Amy
Oh, wait. No, no, no. I. I got you.
Ray
And we thought about it, Carrie.
Amy
Like, we're like, okay, I thought about it, and I'm with you.
Morgan
Did I hang up?
Amy
I stand with her. Oh, she's gone, guys.
Lunchbox
She mad. She mad.
Morgan
What's gonna suck today is when one of you guys have to call 911 and they're like, I heard that segment.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah.
Morgan
Just wait. Quick recap. We have a cleaning lady here in the building. The building hires her, not our company. Eddie was talking with her. She was like, I've been kind of sick, but I can't take time off. Eddie goes, let's start a GoFundMe. Kind of starts a revolution here in the studio. We're going, hey, find out what she needs. You with me?
Ray
Okay.
Morgan
We've been doing this for a while, and Eddie's like, I got it. Turns out Eddie went to Abby, and it's like Abby started GoFundMe for her.
Amy
Oh, because he doesn't know how.
Morgan
No, because he does.
Ray
That's not true.
Morgan
Abby, what happened?
Amy
Wait, what?
Morgan
Didn't Eddie tell you to start to go fund me?
Abby
No, he didn't. I'm annoyed with him because he won't donate to my, like, charity thing.
Ray
Yeah, I was like, I didn't ask Abby to do this.
Abby
Yeah, he's been talking about how he wants.
Morgan
Okay, I understood that wrong. Did you? Were you doing it yourself, then?
Ray
Yeah, we're still working on it.
Morgan
Okay, so you haven't started the go.
Ray
Yeah, but I am not asking Abby for help.
Amy
Who's we? We're still working on it. Who's helping you?
Ray
I mean. No, no. Just me. Did I say we?
Amy
Yeah, I meant me.
Morgan
Did you? Am I getting my wires crossed? Did you ask somebody to do a GoFundMe, set it up?
Ray
No, I have not asked anyone to help me.
Amy
Why'd you say we?
Ray
Just, I. I see this as a group effort. That's it. I will spearhead it for sure, but it's definitely a group. A group effort.
Morgan
Okay, you're being weird. Okay. Okay, so you're mad at him. Why?
Abby
Well, I'm just annoyed because he's over here being like, we need to start a GoFundMe and raise money, but it's like there's someone on the show that's trying to raise money for something else, and he doesn't even help. And I sent him the link to, like, the St. Jude. Nothing. Nothing back. Remember? He brought it up.
Morgan
These would be a little different, though.
Ray
Very different.
Amy
Abby's not sick, but I'm raising it for St. Jude.
Abby
The kids at St. Jude.
Morgan
It's still like, Abby.
Ray
How many years have you done this, Abby?
Abby
Like, Abby?
Morgan
This is.
Abby
I've been on the show six years.
Ray
Six years she's been asking for money
Amy
if Eddie would. The only way this is even a little bit comparable is if Eddie were to be running a race and. And, like, asking us to donate to him instead of you. Right.
Abby
Yeah, I did donate to his. When he did the walk.
Amy
Oh, okay. That. That is.
Morgan
I think she's upset that Eddie just hasn't donated to her because I don't think it's a fair comparison.
Ray
Right.
Morgan
Of GoFundMes.
Amy
Abby, will you send me the link, please?
Ray
Oh, because you're gonna donate?
Amy
Yeah, because I did. I think I was gonna remember. I got. I said I was gonna donate last year, and I didn't.
Morgan
We don't remember you did that, Amy.
Amy
Well, I'm telling all my friends.
Morgan
That sucks of you. Yes.
Amy
Yeah, I remember feeling really bad, like, oh, dang. So I would like to donate.
Morgan
Okay, so the update is. No update with the cleaning ladies.
Ray
Not yet.
Morgan
Abby's not upset because you wanted her to go fund me. She's upset you don't donate to her GoFundMe.
Ray
Right.
Morgan
She'd rather you donate to her running a half marathon to help somebody in the office. That's what it is. Because she's upset that you are doing a different one for somebody else than donating to her.
Amy
Now, that's a perfect breakdown, let me tell you. She's upset because she donated to his.
Ray
That was a long time ago, Amy.
Morgan
That was also five years ago.
Amy
Yeah, but I know Abby's heart. She wants to help our cleaning person as well.
Ray
So. Abby, if I don't donate to your run, you won't donate to the cleaning lady?
Abby
Yes, that's a good question about that.
Morgan
Wow.
Ray
Wow.
Morgan
Wow.
Abby
I will. I want to. I'm just annoyed that you keep talking about something else when you could also.
Morgan
I told you guys. I told you.
Lunchbox
I'm not wrong.
Amy
Abby. I'm trying to help you.
Morgan
I'm not wrong. I told you.
Amy
Okay.
Abby
I don't know what I'm saying.
Amy
I have been.
Abby
I will donate.
Amy
I've been corrected.
Ray
That backfired, Abby.
Morgan
So Abby is annoyed that we're trying to help somebody else when she's trying to get help to run her race.
Ray
Correct.
Abby
Just make.
Morgan
That's crazy. That's crazy. That's wild.
Ray
I didn't know you had that in you.
Abby
I think it's coming out all wrong.
Morgan
It's not. It's coming out exactly as you feel it. Oh, my God. No, no, no. Okay, Eddie, we're still trying to get an update. Yes, we can. Guys, do not ask for a single shred of charity until you donate to Abby. Because anything for anybody else, it does not matter until you donate to Abby's half marathon. Capiche? Everybody. Oh, gosh. Okay, that's wild.
Ray
You heard it here first.
Morgan
You heard it.
Amy
Remind me first not to ask Abby to donate to Mercy Ships. But Abby, if I donate to yours.
Morgan
It's very quick with Abby's charity Bobby Bone Show.
Bobby Bones
Bonehead story of the day.
Lunchbox
This story comes to us from Tampa, Florida. A 52 year old woman was out for a drive and she takes a right turn. Ah, one way street, going the wrong way. She gets pulled over. Police walk up to the window, say, ma', am, can I see your driver's license please? And she goes, yeah, yeah, hold on one second. She hands him a credit card. Like, ma', am, that's a credit card. And she goes, oh, you're right, my bad, my bad. Pulls out her next id. Barnes and Noble card. And they say, ma', am, can you step out of the vehicle?
Bobby Bones
She ran out of cards.
Lunchbox
Ah, she had been drinking. Dui, of course.
Morgan
You ever driven down a one way the wrong way?
Amy
Yes.
Morgan
Yeah, me too.
Amy
Especially when I'm in another city.
Morgan
Yeah, me too. That's exactly when I did it. And never for long, but something just
Bobby Bones
doesn't feel right from the minute
Morgan
something just like comes over. You're like, something right about this.
Bobby Bones
And then all of a sudden, people
Morgan
are waving at you.
Bobby Bones
You're like, wow, people are friendly here. And they're actually just saying, hey, hey, turn around.
Morgan
So I've done it and then I've
Bobby Bones
had somebody come at me the wrong way.
Morgan
Like I'm driving and they're coming down and they're going pretty fast. Luckily I noticed it quick and got in the other lane. But yeah, it's pretty easy if you don't really know your surroundings.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Where'd you do yours?
Amy
Well, I don't.
Morgan
You don't want to say?
Amy
No, I just don't remember.
Morgan
Oh, you just know.
Amy
You have. You don't remember a specifically. It's Been in an unfamiliar place, because otherwise, I wouldn't do that.
Morgan
A cordlock. All right, there you go.
Lunchbox
I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead. Story of the day, Bones. All right.
Bobby Bones
Voicemail.
Caller / Listener
You've always said that you wanted your kids to work hard and know how hard it was to grow up with nothing and not be given everything. But now that you have a precious little baby girl, don't you just want to give her everything? Or do you still feel the same? Love the show.
Morgan
My wife asks me this sometimes. Like, don't you just want to give her everything? Not really. I don't know, though. I don't.
Bobby Bones
I don't know.
Morgan
I'm not there yet.
Ray
Still early.
Morgan
I think those are. Those decisions you have to make whenever those decisions are to be made. Like, I don't want to raise a spoiled kid.
Amy
You don't?
Morgan
I. I don't. But again, it's not. I. There. Yeah.
Amy
And it's hard to go back once you've started to do certain things.
Morgan
Can't un. Ring a bell.
Amy
Yeah.
Morgan
So I do think about that a lot, but that really hasn't come into play. And that's something that is just something that will exist in the future that I can't until it happens. I'm not really able to, like, make up my mind on it. I. I'm gonna try to do it, but I don't know. I just don't want to spoil a kid. And also, you know how kids are with their parents. And, like, I used to walk to school both ways.
Ray
Poor.
Morgan
It's just what my kid's gonna hear me say. Like, I was poor my whole life, and now you. That's just gonna be white noise to them. And so then it's gonna be.
Bobby Bones
But I don't have a good answer
Morgan
for this, but I do think about this, so I just want to acknowledge that this is something I do think about a lot of.
Lunchbox
So.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, we'll see what's up.
Morgan
Hey, I'll update you.
Ray
There you go. In a few years.
Morgan
It's crazy that people buy designer baby clothes. Yeah, that's wild.
Amy
That's for them, not for. I mean.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Ray
Baby doesn't know.
Morgan
No, that's crazy. My. Our baby now is just getting my hand me downs. They're way big.
Ray
But all your workout shorts.
Bobby Bones
We just rap socks.
Morgan
All right, we're done. All right, bye, everybody.

This episode is classic Bobby Bones Show: equal parts playful, personal, controversial, and community-focused. Highlights include the surprisingly deep lobster ethics chat, the exploration of habitual “white lies” and trauma, and–as always–endless, loving ribbing among the show’s cast. The Jeremy Piven saga and Crime Stoppers call, in particular, are not to be missed for their pure comedic energy.
Recommended for:
Fans of offbeat banter, genuine conversations about everyday dilemmas, and a close-knit cast that isn’t afraid to get silly, personal, or both.
