Welcome to Monday's show Morning Studio Morning. I want to play this voicemail we got over the weekend. I was just watching the last episode of Jersey Shore Family Vacation and it showed a preview for next season. And guess what Lunchbox is Front and center in the preview of the Nashville Snooki top opening. That's exciting. Lunchbox. Look forward to it. Have you seen the preview?
Lunchbox
I have not seen the preview. The only preview I've seen is them being in Miami. Like they're going Jersey Shore vacation.
Bobby Bones
We're.
Lunchbox
And they're in Miami. It's like, I don't think we're in Jersey anymore. They haven't shown a Nashville one. What in the world?
Bobby Bones
It's Snooki show, isn't it? Is it?
Lunchbox
No, it's Jersey Shore family.
Bobby Bones
So it's not a Snooki version?
Lunchbox
No.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so I'm.
Lunchbox
She must be seeing a different preview because I'm gonna have to check that out. I'm gonna hit up mtv.
Bobby Bones
And no one's linked to you or tagged you on anything?
Lunchbox
Nothing.
Bobby Bones
Huh.
Amy
They've tagged the show a few times.
Bobby Bones
So maybe they've probably tagged him though, too. Yeah, he doesn't know how to do no. Morgan, have you seen.
Amy
Yeah, but it's like a quick clip of them showing the. All the crowd at the store opening. And you do see Lunchbox mostly because he's the only dude in the middle.
Eddie
Okay.
Bobby Bones
So you can see him and he's.
Amy
In his classic hoodie vibe, so you can pick him out pretty quickly.
Bobby Bones
But is it like, there he is. Lunchbox is like dominating the screen. Bunch of ship.
Amy
No, it's from the back. At least from what I saw.
Bobby Bones
It's. It's from the back.
Amy
It's like a drone kind of aerial.
Lunchbox
Oh, they did have a drone flying over.
Eddie
Oh, so we don't know it's him? Like.
Lunchbox
No, no, we know. Maybe.
Bobby Bones
Maybe she saw a different one.
Amy
Those of us that know. No.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so with that, if you missed the show, Snooki was opening up a store and Lunchbox went there and just was loud and obnoxious and like pushed small women out of the way. So much so that we got Snooki on the show because she was like, I remember him. That was crazy. How's that make you feel to hear that you're in the show?
Lunchbox
Oh, that's pretty exciting. I mean, we high fived me and Snooki. High five, dude. And then I held onto her hand for a little too long.
Bobby Bones
What about the Jerry Springer show? Have you watched it? Cuz you were on Jerry Springer back in the day.
Lunchbox
I have not watched it. My dad watched it and was like, have you watched it? I was like, no, don't tell me anything about it. I don't want to hear about it until I watch it. He goes, okay. And for my dad to watch something, he never watches anything, so.
Bobby Bones
But you're not in that.
Lunchbox
I don't know.
Bobby Bones
I guess if people would have been tagging him, he wouldn't have known because he didn't even know that Snooki tagged him.
Lunchbox
I mean, I doubt I'm in it because I guess it's only two episodes. And so out of all the seasons, they'd had to pick me. I would assume they would have come and interviewed me, though.
Bobby Bones
Of all the shows you watch every day, all the reality shows. Yeah. All the Survivors and Real Race and Real World.
Lunchbox
Amazing Race.
Bobby Bones
The Challenge.
Lunchbox
The Challenge.
Bobby Bones
You ever watched that?
Lunchbox
No, I've been busy, man.
Bobby Bones
Did you nap yesterday?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
How long?
Lunchbox
Hour and a half.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Eddie
Busy. It's part of his day.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I hear it happen. No, no, I hear you.
Lunchbox
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Gotta get that midday. What about the day you get a nap in?
Lunchbox
Day before, probably 30 minutes.
Bobby Bones
Getting long was in lately.
Lunchbox
I did get like a two and a half hour like last Wednesday.
Bobby Bones
Wow, that's a long one. That's like going to sleep. That's like bedtime.
Lunchbox
Well, I was tired, man.
Bobby Bones
Sure. Doing a lot of going on. Yeah, a lot going on. Anyway, so we'll be watching for that.
Lunchbox
Oh, man, I gotta find out.
Bobby Bones
Give us the review of the Jerry Springer once.
Lunchbox
You.
Bobby Bones
You.
Lunchbox
I'll get it done. I'll get it done this week.
Eddie
What's Springer on?
Bobby Bones
Netflix.
Eddie
Nice.
Bobby Bones
It's like the documentary by his show. A couple episodes.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I think it's only two episodes here, everybody.
Bobby Bones
Thank you for being here. Let's get started. Hello, Bobby Bones. I'm 16 and discovered your show on Tik Tok. Now I listen to the podcast. I thought maybe you could help me with this. Whenever I have friends over, I'm embarrassed. My mom dresses. That sucks. She'll wear shorts, shirts, leggings. Overall, it's just too casual when having people over. Sometimes she don't even wear a bra. I don't want my friends looking at my mom in that way and telling other people at school about it. How can I tell my mom to dress more like a mom so she doesn't embarrass me? Signed high school Junior. Dang, dude. You going full Stacy's mom here with you buddies?
Eddie
Stacy's mom for sure.
Bobby Bones
That's for sure. Um, Amy, how would you want to be told that?
Amy
I mean, I guess I'd be okay with my kid being like mom. When I have my friends over, they're like talking about you or your body. And I would just feel better if you could.
Bobby Bones
Like, so the tone sounds warm, though. That tone. That tone sounds warm that you're having right there.
Amy
Yes. Like, I think that that's how I would want my kid to say it to me. Like, like, to me, that feels like my kid feels close to me and like, this is, you know, a fun relationship, but they're being serious. You know, like, mom, you got to stop doing that. You need to put some clothes on.
Bobby Bones
The same conversation had like, this. Mom, can I talk to you for a second? You have to put clothes on. Like, not this. That's not the same communication. No. So you would.
Amy
But I can't picture either of my kids talking to me like that.
Bobby Bones
Got it. And you would. Rather than be like, mom, you got.
Amy
To chill out with mom. I don't know. I love when my kids do that. Maybe I just love hearing them say.
Bobby Bones
Mom, what would you say to this 16 year old?
Amy
I would say that you absolutely should voice something. And I think she's probably just not thinking about it. She's just casual and comfortable in her own home and not thinking maybe about how it's impacting what your friends are seeing and saying at school.
Bobby Bones
I'd want to know if the dad is in the house. Because if the dad's not in the house, maybe the mom is trying to go. Stacy's mom.
Amy
No, I don't know.
Bobby Bones
I agree. To the kid. Mr. Kid, if you're listening, I think it's all about tone, which a lot of life is. If you could present in a tone that's not like life or death, it's like, mom. The guys are like, when your mom wears leggings, we like to come over more like, can you not do that because it's embarrassing like that it has to be approached like that.
Eddie
Yeah, I get less people coming over, though. I'm saying, yeah, I felt that. Like, just be ready for that.
Bobby Bones
And you know what? Good riddance. All on the tone, kid. Appreciate that message.
Amy
But I want my kids to always feel like they have a voice about anything. Like, even if I said no to something I've been really working on. But if you want to present a case or you have something to say, like, go ahead, try to present it to me. I could be wrong. Like, I just want to know.
Eddie
Wear a bra, Mom.
Bobby Bones
All right. Good luck, kid. It's all about the tone. Thank you. Close it up. Here's a voicemail from Chris in California. So I was just watching bert Kreischer's latest YouTube upload. And that's when he FaceTimed you with Ernest and Travis Zenning on Something's Burning. And I heard you talking about it a couple weeks ago and you not knowing if it was a mistake or not. So I was just wondering, did you have happen to hear that or not? All right.
Lunchbox
Love you.
Bobby Bones
See y'all. I have not heard. I texted. Bert Krer is the really famous comedian who takes a shirt off. Like, that's at first. That's what he was known for. He still does, and it's still hilarious. He's not been on the show. Are we all familiar with Bert?
Lunchbox
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Okay. So he would like FaceTime me, and I don't really have a relationship with him like that. We just have each other's numbers. We don't really text. And I miss like two facetimes. And I was like, well, that's weird. I think he was probably trying to call. Somebody else talked about it here. But this is from his podcast. Go ahead.
Lunchbox
I was listening to you on Bobby. Let's break down Bobby Bones on this.
Bobby Bones
Episode of Breaking Bones.
Lunchbox
Bobby Bones is one of the biggest radio guys in the world.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but he's LeBron James of radio.
Lunchbox
Yeah, he really is huge. I called into his show one time. Wonder if he'd answer FaceTime.
Bobby Bones
He would.
Lunchbox
I bet he won't. Let's see if he.
Bobby Bones
We can. Bobby's broken bone. Bobby's broken bone.
Lunchbox
He asked me, I did an interview with him and he goes, are you just doing this interview to get press or are we friends now? And I went, we're friends. So I text him every now and then.
Bobby Bones
And I didn't answer. I think I was in the middle of something.
Eddie
I would have answered funny.
Bobby Bones
No. I don't know. I would have thought he butt dialed me the whole time. Because I don't. I'd like to be his. I'd like to be his friend, but I don't really.
Lunchbox
Funny.
Eddie
But even when you asked him, though, like, hey, did. Did you mean to do that? What did he respond? He didn't say that. He was in the middle of a podcast, I don't think.
Amy
Oh, no, he did. He said, so your country people rave about you or they really like you.
Bobby Bones
Or I can look up the text, but.
Eddie
And that's Travis Dayton.
Lunchbox
Who?
Amy
Ernest.
Bobby Bones
Ernest on with him.
Eddie
That's cool.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. So to Burt, I said, hey, man, did you butt dial me? He said, no butt dial. And then we didn't talk for eight days.
Eddie
That's It.
Bobby Bones
And then we've been trying to find time to do something together, like, creatively since then, but that was it.
Eddie
See, he never, like, addressed. He was on a podcast and he was on.
Bobby Bones
Here's Amy's pile of stories.
Amy
So have you heard of a Go bag? Okay, well, I'm familiar with it because, well, when I was married, I was married to someone that was in the military, and he always had a go bag packed, like it was ready to go in case he got a phone call, the bag was packed, and he was out the door. Well, because of the Los Angeles wildfires, Go bags are making the news just for everyday people. Maybe you don't work in the military or anything like that, but you can have a go bag ready to go in case of an emergency. And I have a list of what you should keep in your go bag.
Bobby Bones
Well, anything that I would keep in it, I'll be like, I should get that. It's like if I put, like, 10 bucks somewhere just in case I need that 10 bucks, like, a day later.
Amy
I know, but you're just gonna have to forget that it's there. But then don't forget when it's time.
Bobby Bones
To go, I put, like, food in the glove box, like peanuts, just in case the car breaks down. Two days later, I'm eating the peanuts. Go ahead.
Amy
A flashlight, hygiene kit, emergency blanket.
Bobby Bones
I would for sure need the deodorant. Two days later, can't find my deodorant. Let's go to the go bag.
Amy
This one I feel like y'all will have because of 25 whistles, but they highly recommend having a survival whistle.
Bobby Bones
Then somebody should just make these bags and sell them. Like, they should just be some. This. There's the market now for go bags. Super Go, we'll call them Super Go Bags. All that should be in, you should buy for the Internet.
Amy
Dang face masks, water, non perishable foods, a backup battery, and then food for your pet if you have one as well.
Bobby Bones
All stuff that I normally can't find anyway, even in my normal life. Yeah. What else?
Amy
So a private investigator shared three things that make us, like, vulnerable to being tracked or people figuring out where we live and what we're doing. First of all, on social media, adding people that we don't know. And I'm like, well, how did you.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's. That's most of my friends on social media. I don't really know them in real life, but how do they know more about us unless they talk with us? Because anybody can see our Profiles.
Amy
Well, they're just able to like see everything that you're posting. For example, like say you just sold your house or bought a house and you post the sign with that has the realtor. You're not putting the address of where you are. But when you put maybe the real estate agent and they know the city that you're in, it's easy to track down what houses were listed and then sold that day. And they're like, boom, I know where you live.
Bobby Bones
I think that's just don't post stupid stuff more than who you follow.
Amy
Anybody can see that thinking they might not think like, oh, based on this realtor sign that my information is going to get trapped people's all the time.
Bobby Bones
When I see that, I immediately try.
Amy
To steal their info and then sharing locations like, but duh.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Bank account money.
Amy
Yeah. But let me tell you as a family, like Life 360. That app is such a great. Like my son, he's so obsessed with this like a game for him. He's like, he tells me exactly where my daughter is and what she's doing. He's like, it looks like she's moving around the kitchen. I think she's at home, Mom. I'm like, perfect.
Bobby Bones
So that tells you where everybody is.
Eddie
Yeah, like very precise too.
Bobby Bones
It's very precise because we, my wife and I have. So we can track each other to know like, hey, I'm over near here. Or if I'm like, hey, will you grab lunch if you're near this place, but it's within like 100ft.
Eddie
No, this is right on the dot.
Bobby Bones
Dang. Anything else to tell you?
Amy
Yeah, well, we just mostly use it for the tracking. But what I love is that my son is so into it. He just gives me every detail of where my daughter is. So Lainey Wilson's 2025 tour schedule, it's not as full as it has been the past couple of years. And she's doing this by choice. And so it made me curious about Bobby. You once had a resolution out there that you wanted to be bored more. So I'm curious where you with that.
Bobby Bones
I'm bored less. It sucks.
Eddie
Did the opposite.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, no, it sucks. I just, I get more done, but I'm not as creative. If I'm not bored, I'm not as creative. It's hard to be precisely calendared creative. So I get it. After a while, you're just like, I'm getting all these offers. It's super cool, but I'm exhausted. I'm not Creating anything new that's going to get me offers later on.
Amy
Laney said that she's looking forward to sitting around a bonfire at night, waking up late, sitting on the porch with her dog, because she hasn't been able to do something like that in, like, a really long time.
Bobby Bones
She's also not asking to feel sorry for her. This not like, woe is me, because me either. Like, I. It's a choice. But yeah, no, she hit hard and boom, like entertainer of the year. And you get all these offers you've been waiting your whole life to get. You don't not take them. You take them all for like a year and a half and then you get real tired and you go, I'm gonna take a little break.
Amy
Yep. Yeah, I'm Amy. That's my pile.
Bobby Bones
That was Amy's pile of stories. The show is sponsored by Better Help. Think about something you're looking forward to in 2025. The new year. Excitement, joy, possibilities, and new beginnings for a lot of us. You know, maybe your resolution is picking up a new hobby or perhaps taking that trip you've been putting off for years. Every January brings a new chapter in your life that is waiting to be filled. One way to help get you through the next chapter, and really any chapter in life is therapy. I did not know about therapy most of my life. And the great thing is there is no bias toward you against you. They are there using what they've been taught to help you use the tools. Now, let me tell you about this. People can be like, oh, I want to go to therapy and just get fixed. That's not how it works. But what's great is if you're spiraling, you're in a bad place. Therapy does give you those tools to help let you acknowledge it and hopefully get yourself out of it. Therapy's been a game changer for me. Holidays can be tough. Holidays can be awesome. But maybe your resolution is to start therapy. Give better help a try. Write your story with BetterHelp. Visit betterhelp.com bobby and get 10% off your first month. It's completely online.

Who knows? Dude, I don't answer questions in games, so I can't answer a question. I'm very sorry. I can make a statement, but it can't be based on a question you have. That's it. So, lunchbox, you'll need to get it right. So I'm gonna come to you last and see if they miss it. Morgan, what do you have?
Amy
I'm speaking with my guy, Buzz Aldrin.
Bobby Bones
Buzz Aldrin? Guy's all over the phone. It sounds like that's what he does.
Amy
I know he's in space.
Bobby Bones
That is incorrect. Amy.
Amy
The Apollo pilot, Eddie.
Eddie
I mean, I don't know why I know this, but I'm gonna say Jim Lovell, Apollo 13.
Amy
You know it? Because. Did Tom Hanks play his character?
Eddie
That's right.
Bobby Bones
Lunchbox, what'd you write down?
Lunchbox
I wrote down the Challenger.
Bobby Bones
Oh, no. The Challenger. Later, it exploded. Yes, but they did have a problem, and they. But that was. This is earlier. Morgan. It is not Buzz Aldrin. I really can't give it to either one of you because you both were off a bit. It is the Apollo 13 mission. Amy said the Apollo astronauts or something. And, Eddie.
Amy
I said the pilot.
Bobby Bones
You said the wrong person. Jim Lovell, Jack Swigert, who called Mission Control swagger. So I would have also. I would have accepted the Apollo 13 mission. But you're tied, and we will go to sudden death. Okay, Buzz in with your name, and we'll stop the clip immediately. Famous historical quotes. That's the only thing we have. Amy.
Amy
Mlk.
Bobby Bones
Mlk. That is incorrect. Eddie, you can hear the whole thing.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Please, go ahead. We'll start it from the beginning again. Go ahead.
Lunchbox
That's the only thing we have to.
Bobby Bones
Say is fear itself.
Eddie
That is World War II. FDR, come on.
Bobby Bones
Correct. Yes. Yes. Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Yeah.
Amy
Is it best two out of three?
Bobby Bones
It is not. That's it. That's one side. Amy, what do you have?
Amy
So there's this woman that thinks that the gifted program from back in the day, she was in it as a child. That it's a CIA training program.
Bobby Bones
Oh, why does she think that? Like, what about it leads her to think that the CIA was infiltrating the mind of young Americans?
Amy
Because a lot of the things they were working on would be, like, cracking codes, plotting graphs, sign language, Morse code, Russian. Nearly all the lessons that she learned were focused on creative problem solving. And, yeah, a surprising number of what they were doing was in Russian, I think.
Bobby Bones
Gt we never did Russian.
Eddie
Is that what she's talking about?
Bobby Bones
I don't know if talented. Did she specifically say what the program was called?
Amy
Yeah, Gifted and talented education program is.
Bobby Bones
Watching you, man in Mountain pine. We have Russia now. I'll be honest with you. I was.
Amy
Were you being trained? Like, I'm sure different GT programs around the country had different focuses. So maybe hers was, like, Russian and this and that, and yours could have been something else. Like, I need you to think back.
Bobby Bones
It's weird because you don't apply for it. They just, like, pick kids out.
Amy
Exactly. Because they know who they need in the program.
Eddie
Oh, the CIA.
Amy
And I'm starting to believe that this is true.
Bobby Bones
Don't talk yourself into crazy stuff. I do it all the time. I remember them coming in, like, second grade and going, hey, we'd like to see. And I thought I was in trouble. Well, once I had head lice, that was a whole different time in the hallway. And then I got sent home. The other time was, we think you should be in this program to challenge you more. And so I got in. Gt and I was in it until I finished school. We did a lot of structural building. Like, I forget what the competition was called, but you had to build things to hold weights. Like, they would just give you popsicle sticks. This is young, young.
Eddie
Like, so building military infrastructure, it would.
Bobby Bones
Have been like, kid engineering.
Eddie
Whoa.
Bobby Bones
So there was that. I did all this, all the competitions, like spelling bee, geography, be all that. I mean, I did that. We used to do assassinations as kids. We practiced assassinating world leaders, but I never thought anything about that.
Amy
Well, so apparently, Gifted and Talented education, if the acronym for that is gate. And back in the 80s, the CIA did have a.
Bobby Bones
That's crazy.
Amy
Gateway program.
Bobby Bones
I guess I didn't make CIA then.
Eddie
They thought. They must have thought you would be good for it.
Amy
But then they're like, is that what you're supposed to say?
Bobby Bones
It's a great point. I will be an awesome spy. We watch all these CIA shows. I'll be great to spy.
Eddie
It's impossible. You're not a CIA agent because we see you Every day.
Amy
Yeah, but that's what we don't know.
Bobby Bones
You don't know.
Eddie
What do you mean?
Bobby Bones
Amy, please tell Eddie about.
Amy
You wouldn't know that certain agents or agents, you would literally have no clue.
Bobby Bones
It would be like terrorists on their sleeper cells. You'd have no idea they're terrorists, they're in a. They're sleeper, they're sleeping until they're being called to action.
Eddie
But you would be gone.
Bobby Bones
No, my go.
Eddie
Oh my gosh.
Bobby Bones
You have. I could be propagating.
Amy
He doesn't need to go anywhere.
Bobby Bones
Look at the platform. A lot of people think I'm a plan anyway because I kind of suck at this. And here I am with the biggest. One of the biggest shows in the world and they're like he's obviously a plant.
Eddie
Interesting.
Amy
I mean Eddie, your kids basketball coach could be CIA, you never know. Don't tell me that normal everyday people search that guy.
Bobby Bones
Do it, let us know. Let's just start checking people for CIA. I never thought about that. Mostly I think it was because I. In school I got bored and so I think they just put me in a class to make it a little harder. But that's interesting. If I were the CIA leader, I would do that. I would try to find from. It's like in Europe they'll find the best kids to play soccer. Or China they'll find the best and they'll put them in these schools immediately like first grade. All of a sudden all you're doing is the friggin uneven bars like breakfast, lunch and dinner. Uneven bars. And then if you don't win the gold at 19, they kill you. That gets kind of dark.
Eddie
Maybe Amy's onto something.
Amy
Well, I mean I. All I saw was the New York Post had this article about this woman. Her name is Anna Mills.
Bobby Bones
I'd be so good.
Amy
She's helped her new interest in this theory.
Bobby Bones
Think about CIA though. They're not here. It's not. They don't really do stuff here, right? FBI is here by the rule, by the law.
Eddie
I don't trust anything you're saying right now.
Bobby Bones
CIA is mostly Internet. It's international, right? Or international. You can be here, but it's about international. FBI is here, but that doesn't mean it ain't happening. CIA, dude, they. They don't play like FBI don't play. But CIA don't play like they're doing some stuff. They're making some strategic decisions where bad stuff are having to happen to people for the good of X, Y and Z. And how do you know a lot of TV shows? Thanks for asking. Yeah.
Amy
Yeah. I just feel like shoes have to be a certain type to work in that. Because it just seems like it would be very difficult to sometimes separate, compartmentalize. But then also, like, know that you may have to do something really, really shady.
Bobby Bones
Let's go.
Amy
To get this done.
Bobby Bones
I mean, it's the greater good.
Eddie
And this is why you don't drink.
Amy
Well, potentially the greater good.
Bobby Bones
Everything's potentially. You just never know. I know. So thank you for sharing that with me. I have no further comment. And I'm also not in the Illuminati.
Eddie
We don't know that.
Amy
Why would you bring that up? Nobody said.
Eddie
Yeah.
Amy
Like, is that a glitch? Like, you're supposed to say, I'm not in this. I'm not in this.
Eddie
He's like, ray, go to commercial.
Bobby Bones
Go to commercial.
Eddie

Bobby Bones
One of my New Year's resolutions was to win over $1,000 on a scratch off. So every day I scratch a scratch off. $50 scratch off. I won again today Yes. I don't know how much I won though, because I have not scratched the number yet. Oh, you just know that you're so like. I see the number. Lunchbox. How do you feel when I just say that? Like, what are you hoping happens here?
Lunchbox
It's just $50. So you just.
Bobby Bones
So you. You want bad for me?
Lunchbox
No, no, it's not bad. That means you get your money back.
Bobby Bones
But that's the worst case scenario because I know I've won. And you have to win at least what you spent on the ticket.
Lunchbox
Correct.
Eddie
What is the most you can win on that ticket?
Bobby Bones
$5 million.
Eddie
Oh my goodness.
Lunchbox
If he won $5 million, I'd break this table.
Eddie
No, you wouldn't.
Amy
Bobby. What would you do?
Bobby Bones
I think I would just take these out of my ears.
Amy
Uh huh.
Bobby Bones
I have my shoes off right now. So I put my shoes on, slide my feet in them, and I would slowly walk out the door. While on the air I walk to my car and drive and put this somewhere safe. Or maybe to the lottery office. It's open right now. I'll go right. I would go right there.
Eddie
Go straight there.
Bobby Bones
I would leave right this second. I don't even think I would say it out loud on the show. We're live and I. I think I would just walk off.
Amy
But now, but if you do that.
Eddie
Then now we know and Lunchbox is going to follow you.
Bobby Bones
But. Or since I said that, do you think I'm just messing with you?
Amy
We'll restrain him.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
I have a question.
Bobby Bones
Yep.
Lunchbox
Would you feel any inkling to share that 5 million with us?
Bobby Bones
I don't have anything to share. My.
Eddie
A little bit.
Bobby Bones
A little bit, A little bit.
Lunchbox
I mean, we're here with you without.
Bobby Bones
If you needed it, I would give you money now. I don't need a lottery to do that.
Lunchbox
Right, right. But I'm saying that 5 million is just extra. Like a windfall.
Amy
Exactly.
Bobby Bones
Do you just say words?
Eddie
What. What is that?
Lunchbox
That's what they say, a windfall.
Bobby Bones
Okay. So the number that I'm going to scratch, I got to find it.
Lunchbox
Can I scratch it?
Bobby Bones
No. Why would I let you. Who's rooting against me? Scra.
Eddie
You have bad luck, you're rooting against me.
Bobby Bones
He has the worst luck of everybody.
Amy
But it already is what it is.
Lunchbox
I do have terrible luck.
Bobby Bones
Chardinger's cat. It could be many things until I scratch it. I've won $5 million and I've won just 50. Who think that Schrodinger.
Lunchbox
I don't know what that is?
Eddie
Oh, Cat.
Bobby Bones
Cat in the box. Toxic spills over. Cat's dead and alive. Because you don't know yet, so no idea. It doesn't matter.
Lunchbox
The number is a made up story.
Bobby Bones
The number is 38. So I've matched 38. We ready for the scratch? Yes.
Eddie
Come on, baby.
Bobby Bones
If I win a thousand, my New Year's resolution is done.
Eddie
Yes. And if you win the big one, you're out of here.
Bobby Bones
If I win over a hundred thousand, I'm taking my ears out and walking out.
Lunchbox
If you won over a hundred thousand, I don't know.
Bobby Bones
But it's only one number that's hit, so it's not like multiple. Because sometimes you multiple hit and you add it all up. All right, here we go. The number is 38.
Eddie
It's only one number.
Bobby Bones
It's only one number that I've hit. I will tell you that It's. It's not 50.
Eddie
Yes. Yes. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. He's laughing. Lunch.
Bobby Bones
It's not 50.
Eddie
He's laughing.
Lunchbox
So it's 100.
Bobby Bones
It's not. No, it's not 100. It's not 100.
Eddie
He hit his goal. There's no way he hit his resolution.
Bobby Bones
I on.
Eddie
How many tickets have you scratched? Four.
Bobby Bones
Four or five.
Eddie
That's crazy, dude. Come on. I want the big one.
Bobby Bones
I have hit. Mike, will you verify that it is. It is not. I haven't lied about anything.
Lunchbox
He is not. What?
Eddie
He's not. What? What does that mean?
Lunchbox
Michaels? He has not lied.
Bobby Bones
I'm not lying.
Eddie
Oh, I didn't think you were allowed to verify that.
Bobby Bones
He hasn't lied.
Eddie
He's not lying.
Bobby Bones
He's my live verifier. Okay, it's not 50, it's not 100.
Eddie
And you still have your shoes off, so it's not the big one.
Bobby Bones
It is.
Amy
You probably leave with. I'll choose.
Bobby Bones
Ticket.
Amy
Ticket.
Bobby Bones
Okay, free ticket. So I got another ticket. Dang. Thought I was in. Thought I was in on that one.
Eddie
Dang, dang, dang.
Bobby Bones
When I saw the letters, I thought like million or something.
Lunchbox
Hey, maybe I need to bring some in and scratch with you.
Bobby Bones
No, not. Not your bit. My resolution. I'm keeping up with it. Scratch at home all you want. Let her have it.
Lunchbox
Thought we'd have it like, you know, scratch off.
Bobby Bones
You just rooted against me.
Lunchbox
Well, you can root against me.
Bobby Bones
I would never. I hope you win. You've put in tons of money in your life. I hope you finally hit when you do that.
Eddie
His brain's like.
Bobby Bones
And he wouldn't give us any money yet. He would want ours if we want.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but I don't scratch them around you guys.
Bobby Bones
No, but if you. Because I scratch it around you, you deserve it.
Lunchbox
I didn't say I.
Bobby Bones
Proximity. What? You're saying proximity allows you to have money.
Lunchbox
You're doing it is me. I am.
Bobby Bones
You didn't introduce tickets to. You didn't introduce lottery tickets to me.
Lunchbox
I'm your inspiration.
Bobby Bones
You're not my museum. That is. That.
Lunchbox
I don't know what muse is.
Eddie
Same thing.
Bobby Bones
You're not my muse.
Lunchbox
Well, why don't we just say inspiration? Why we gotta change the word like, why? We gotta try to sound smart.
Bobby Bones
You're not my muse. Okay, we'll try again tomorrow.
Eddie
Can't wait.
Bobby Bones
Didn't win this one.
Amy
You did win, though.
Bobby Bones
Not the New Year's resolution.
Eddie
It's just a ticket, Amy.
Lunchbox
But it is.
Bobby Bones
It gives me another bullet in the gun.
Amy
Yep.
Bobby Bones
You know, I mean, it's time for the good news with lunchbox. Tell me something good.
Lunchbox
73 year old Zoe Mendez was delivering flowers. She gets out of the car, but she forgot to put it in park. And boom. Rolls over her leg and.
Bobby Bones
Ah. Help. I'm trapped. I'm trapped.
Lunchbox
Granny's stuck under the car.
Bobby Bones
Oh, what the crap?
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah. Luckily, strangers in Massachusetts are real strong. They came over 1, 2, 3.
Eddie
Lifting.
Lunchbox
The car, lifted the car and pulled.
Bobby Bones
Stop on her leg if it's in drive.
Eddie
Yeah, I don't know.
Lunchbox
I don't know.
Bobby Bones
My leg, it just keep rolling.
Amy
Yeah, just go right.
Bobby Bones
Be broken, but it be rolling. Dang, that sucks.
Lunchbox
They picked her up, though. They picked up the car, got her out, got Granny out, took her to the hospital. She's okay.
Eddie
Wow, that's amazing.
Bobby Bones
Great story. Luckily people were there. I don't know what I would do if I saw a woman trapped under a car.
Eddie
Well, you're not from Massachusetts. They're strong over there.
Bobby Bones
That's true. Good point. Arkansas. Strongly the same, I guess. All right, there you go. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good, Bones. Let's go to Amy with the Morning Corny. The morning Corny.
Amy
What do you call a sleeping piece of paper?
Bobby Bones
What do you call a sleeping piece of paper?
Amy
A napkin.
Bobby Bones
Napkin.
Eddie
Oh, yeah, napkins.
Bobby Bones
Take a nap.
Eddie
Get it?
Bobby Bones
That was the morning Corny. There was a guy at a Pittsburgh Penguins hockey game. He was ejected for stealing a puck from a little kid.
Amy
Oh, gosh.
Bobby Bones
Now, let's say, Amy Morgan, you start to date a guy and you look, you Google him like everybody does, and you see in the news, at some point, he was ejected for stealing a puck from a kid.
Amy
Yeah, I'm gonna question Yellow flag. I'm gonna need to talk to him and be like, what happened? Were you confused?
Bobby Bones
Is it a deal breaker, Morgan?
Amy
Yeah, definitely not a good thing. I do think I'd have questions like, did you know this was hap.
Eddie
What was going on here?
Amy
Like, give me and see what his answer was. But for sure I'd have questions.
Bobby Bones
The crowd cheered as the young fan received his own souvenir. When he caught the puck, which appeared to upset the man who had got a seat beside him, things escalated. The boy's mother appeared to raise her arm when the guy grabbed the puck from the kid. Yeah, no, apparently it was, like, close between them. It doesn't matter if it's close. Ty goes to the younger person.
Amy
I feel always like his excuse for me to date him would need to be that, like, he was held at gunpoint somewhere and be like, you better give me that puck.
Bobby Bones
Like someone.
Amy
Yeah, like, I need that puck.
Bobby Bones
Or before, like, if you don't get a puck, I'm gonna kill your family.
Amy
Exactly.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Then I get it. And that is the end of the first half of the podcast. That is the end of the first half of the podcast. That is the end of the first half of the podcast.
