Nourishes like a smoothie and sizzles like a Smashburger. Easy to pick up and hard to put down. Made from plants and grills like beef. See, it's not. Or it's and and that's what I love about impossible. Just this weekend, couple impossible burgers, put them on the grill. Boom. Felt like I was having a cheat meal without the feeling of the guilt of a cheat meal. It's not just burgers. They got hot dogs, chicken, everything you need for your summer menu.

The Bobby Bones Show I think just being in water is overrated like Being in a pool is overrated. Just being in water. I get it. Like, if I just wanted to be in water, I would take a bath or a shower. Now if there's something to do. Meaning, like, we went last week, we spent a few days east Tennessee in the mountains, and there was a water slide and had fun in the water slide. And then it's like, okay, get out of the water.
Eddie
So you needed a slide to have fun in the water?
Bobby Bones
I just needed an activity. I think the beach is stupid now. I also know I'm in the minority. You are like, this is a very unpopular opinion. It's the only time that I have ever got into my swimming pool for the sake of just being in the pool was because Katelyn's family was over and it was her mom and dad, brother in law, Kaylin's sister, kids. Everybody was there and so they wanted to be in the pool. And, you know, mostly I just hung out on the side of the pool. But I did get in and we threw nephew around. Like, he's like two. So we just were like chunking him in the air. And that was all fun and. But I got in the water to do that. I didn't get in the water because I thought the water was fun. It was the only time I've ever got in my pool for, like, recreation. I've gone into swim and workout. Like, I have like a ankle injury that bothers me, a shoulder injury that bothers me. And I find swimming, it's not super bad on my joints. But I've never gotten in the pool one time. Not one time that we have at our house to just swim, like, for fun.
Eddie
That's crazy, man.
Bobby Bones
Just not fun for me. If I just wanted to be wet, I would get wet. I would just take a bath. What about like a hot, hot day?
Eddie
And like, oh, it'd be nice to just jump in the pool for air.
Bobby Bones
Conditioning and then I don't have to like, clean up off because there's like chemicals in the pool.
Eddie
Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
And I have to go and take another wet to get rid of my other wet.
Eddie
Oh, shower after you're done. Yeah, I never do that.
Bobby Bones
I. I have to. Well, you don't have hair.
Eddie
What does it have to do with anything?
Bobby Bones
Did you get chlorine in your hair?
Eddie
Oh, okay.
Bobby Bones
You have to wash my hair.
Eddie
I thought it was just like chlorine to get off your body, like.
Bobby Bones
Well, that too though, because you smell like chlorine.
Eddie
And sometimes when I get in the pool, I'm like, I don't need to shower.
Mike D
Exactly.
Eddie
Like, I'm. I.
Mike D
Just Such a great relief.
Bobby Bones
No, because again, there's too many chemicals in the pool. Like, my wife would never let me lay in the bed covered in chemicals. So it's the only time I've ever been to the pool. And I did get in the pond because there was a water slide, but I never stayed in the pond. I think being in water, to me, very overrated. Couldn't be more overrated, actually.
Eddie
Dude, I love it. There's nothing better than, like, seeing, like, if you go to a hotel, first thing I do, let me check out the pool and I go look at the pool. I'm like, oh, I'm jumping in that pool as soon as I get my trunks on.
Bobby Bones
And I understand if you have kids and you need something for them to do.
Eddie
No, no, no. Just for me.
Bobby Bones
Oh, okay.
Eddie
Like, for me. Even when we used to, like, tour, dude, I would, like, see if the hotel we were staying at had a pool. Cause I was gonna get in it.
Bobby Bones
I understand it's a very unpopular opinion. But then you have to go get wet to get rid of the wet you just got. And I feel like that's such a time consumer. So we were gone sort of last week. Like, we didn't work. We take two weeks every summer. And so our second week was last week, but we did new shows Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. So the only reruns you got was Thursday, Friday. But we were off work. We went to the mountains in East Tennessee, like I said, with Kaitlyn's family. They actually came in on Sunday of last week, and they left yesterday. So they were there for a week.
Eddie
Were you on a boat or something?
Bobby Bones
We were never on a boat. Why?
Eddie
So somebody post something? Like, you were water skiing or.
Bobby Bones
We did.
Eddie
I saw you playing chess.
Bobby Bones
We did a slide.
Eddie
Okay, so you're on a slide. That's it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. No boat. We did water the pond.
Eddie
I'm talking about the pond.
Bobby Bones
We were at the pool another day, and I was like, I don't get the pool. Caitlin's dad is 63. Was doing backflips off the diving board.
Eddie
That's legit.
Bobby Bones
Did you see the video? Yeah. He's 63, still has abs, and is doing back flips. And it's crazy, the genetics that that family has. Like, my wife.
Eddie
Oh, it's genetics. Oh, to have ABs at 63.
Bobby Bones
It's a big part of it. But I'm just saying, they all do. Like, my wife, you just. You know, my wife, she is a She's an A plus athlete.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And without even really caring or trying, naturally gifted. Her sister, state championship basketball player. A plus. Her brother played college basketball. Caitlin's brother played college basketball. He's like 6, 6, 6, 7.
Eddie
Yeah, that's cool.
Bobby Bones
It's crazy. And he's 63 years old, doing not just backflips, like full tuck your knee, back flips. So. But we did that. It was very much dominated in a good way, for the most part by the kids of Caitlin's sister.
Eddie
Oh, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Because there's a baby that's six months old. The baby never cries.
Eddie
That's awesome.
Bobby Bones
Unbelievable.
Eddie
Yeah, it's unheard of.
Bobby Bones
It's the greatest baby I've ever seen, like ever.
Eddie
Even if the baby's hungry, nothing.
Bobby Bones
This is a hungry cry. Fat baby. Yeah, they'd give him a little something. Yeah, they'd give him a little something. And she's good.
Eddie
That's awesome.
Bobby Bones
Baby never cried. The two year old is like Tasmanian Devil. It's a boy. And I don't know if it's a boy girl thing or what the deal is, but the two year old, he's two. Yeah, it's hilarious. But he just like runs. I mean, he's all over the place.
Eddie
What do they call that? Terrible twos.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, so did that. We got a house over there for a few days. We stayed at our house for a few days, managed the dogs, which is difficult because Stanley, my bulldog, the most loving dog in the history of dogs, however, will run through things to play with them. So, yeah, it was good. And we're back. Mike D. Went to New York. Yeah. Saw that you went to go watch Wicked's awesome, right? It was awesome. I've never been to Broadway, never seen Wicked. I feel like I changed as a person watching that. It's an excellent show because I love the movie. But seeing them do it live where they can't mess up, they sing it perfectly, all the production is just amazing. How was Ariana? I picture her in my head. I was like, oh yeah, look, she's down there. I was like, oh, it's a different actor. I haven't seen the movie. I love the play. But you'd only seen the movie and not seen the play. Yeah. So like the first act is basically the first move or I guess the first part of it is the first movie intermission. And the second part is going to be the second movie. So now I can't wait for the movie. Yeah.
Eddie
Oh, that's cool. I didn't know that and this is.
Bobby Bones
A good time to go to New York because it's not freezing cold. It's pretty hot.
Eddie
Is it hot, though?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I'm okay with that. The weird thing about New York is because it's not. Again, I never lived there. I've just been there enough. Oh, I'd love to live. Is that a lot of people in New York don't have air conditioners because it's not really that hot that long. Yeah. There's no reason to put an air conditioner. So if it's really hot, people are just like, this sucks. Yeah. A lot of the restaurants and stores went into just didn't have any ac, so we'd go in. It'd be so hot. Because why would you invest in a H Vac, a full system of any kind, if you don't have to use it but a month of the year?
Eddie
Same with cars, right? Like, a lot of people don't own cars there.
Bobby Bones
Oh, in the city, sure. Unless they're driving in. If you live in the city, for the most part, unless you want to pay an astronomical fee, you don't have a car because you can walk everywhere or take public transportation.
Eddie
And I've seen some of the garages there are crazy where, like, you just. They lift the car up and they put it up in a slot somewhere using that. Yeah, that's crazy.
Bobby Bones
I've seen that. See that with boats here.
Eddie
Oh, that's true.
Bobby Bones
Amy had to leave, by the way. Amy was sick. She had to leave, and she kind of. It was in a haste. And if it's in a haste, she text me. Finally. She was like, maybe I shouldn't read it, but.
Eddie
What do you mean in haste?
Bobby Bones
She was out. Quick, fast. Yeah. You don't know the word.
Eddie
I've heard the word. I just never heard it being used.
Bobby Bones
She said, went to bathroom, threw up, headed back home. That was it. I texted her, I said, if you're sick, don't come in tomorrow. Maybe I should be warmer. But I don't think she needs me to be warmer at this point in our relationship.
Eddie
What would be warmer? Would you be like, oh, hey, I.
Bobby Bones
Hope you feel better? I think all that's understood. But I was just like, don't push yourself.
Eddie
That's a good point.
Bobby Bones
I don't even think to be warm. I think, how can I be most effective? The quickest.
Eddie
Okay, so. But how are you at home with that? Because that's where I have a little.
Bobby Bones
Bit of a challenge different. But I've had to learn how to Be different. My bedside manner is different at home because my wife has expressed to me how important it is to treat her like a human and not like we're in a lab.
Eddie
Okay, so don't you think it's important to treat everyone else outside your house?
Bobby Bones
No, because we were in the middle of doing stuff here on the show, and it. So.
Eddie
Because I understand what you're saying. Like, dude, just get to the point. Like, hey, go home. You don't feel good, whatever. But my wife also has pointed out that I should probably be a little warmer when I say, like, are you hurt? Are you not bleeding? Get up.
Bobby Bones
Professional setting. And those are four boys you have.
Eddie
Correct.
Bobby Bones
And we were in the middle of stuff. We were recording some other stuff, and Amy left, and I do the countdown, and I was just like, okay, don't feel like you have to. I feel like it was warm for me to be like, don't push yourself tomorrow. Like, stay. I felt like my warmth was in that message.
Eddie
Right. I'm with you, dude.
Mike D
Did you want him to walk her to the car or what?
Bobby Bones
Like, well, I could have been like, hope you feel better. I didn't put that on.
Eddie
And that's what my wife's saying, stuff like that. Like, oh, man.
Bobby Bones
But she knows I hope she feels better because I need her to come back to work.
Eddie
But they still want to hear it, right?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Again. Again, Dude, I'm with you 100%. My wife is telling me to work on this.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, well, you. Maybe you should, because I've worked on my mine at home for sure.
Eddie
Like, tell my boys, like, I'm sorry you're hurting. Gosh, that must not feel very well.
Bobby Bones
Morgan, I saw a bear.
Guest Female
I gotta see one.
Bobby Bones
You saw one, too? Yeah, yeah, I saw one and thought of you. It was probably a teenager in the woods.
Eddie
Teenage bear.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, well.
Guest Female
Cause you're out getting in trouble in.
Bobby Bones
The mountains and I'm assuming. What color was your bear?
Guest Female
It's a black bear.
Bobby Bones
Okay. That's what you want to see?
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Brown bears will eat you.
Guest Female
We were in grizzly bear territory, but we didn't see any. We just saw the black bear.
Bobby Bones
So I saw you. Who did you go with? You went with friends and your boyfriend?
Guest Female
Yeah, I went to.
Bobby Bones
And your dog? No, he's not there. He's got all of her girlfriends. Go ahead.
Guest Female
Nope. So we went to the new epic Universal in Orlando, and I did that with my boyfriend. We also went to Disney and then came back for a day, and then I went on a girls trip to Bozeman, Montana.
Bobby Bones
Oh, you did two trips?
Eddie
Yeah, that's the one. I thought she was going to Brazil. Remember Belize or Belize?
Bobby Bones
Man, you are sinking it up. Do you know what that is?
Eddie
No.
Bobby Bones
A sink.
Guest Female
No, I mean, I know what a sink is.
Bobby Bones
No.
Guest Female
S I N K. Like, I'm sinking things.
Bobby Bones
Do some context here.
Guest Female
So, I mean, you said, like, I'm sinking, like, together.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But just sink. So you're not sinking down. But if you went on two trips. Yeah, And I say, man, you are full sync right now.
Guest Female
Oh. Like, I put myself through it.
Bobby Bones
Because that'd be fun. Both would be fun. I think both trips would be fun.
Guest Female
Full sink right now.
Bobby Bones
A sink. You're a sink.
Guest Female
I have everything in the sink.
Bobby Bones
No.
Eddie
Is it an acronym?
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Mike D
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Leave the word sink out of it. Like, I mean, not the word, but leave the picture of a sink in the kitchen or the bathroom out of it. It has nothing to do with an actual sink. It is an acronym. Thank you.
Guest Female
So, solo. Single. Person. Individual. Not.
Bobby Bones
You got the first word.
Guest Female
Solo. Single.
Bobby Bones
Single.
Guest Female
Single. Interactive. Single. Interpol. I don't have a lot of eyes.
Eddie
Interpol.
Guest Female
Interest.
Bobby Bones
Intercourse.
Eddie
Single. Intercourse.
Guest Female
Single.
Bobby Bones
Ray.
Guest Male
Do you know it involved single income, no kids.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Guest Female
Oh. Oh. I call them dinks. I guess that's true. Cause I'm not married.
Mike D
What's a dink?
Bobby Bones
Dual income. Dink would be dual or double.
Guest Female
Yeah. Single income, no kids.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you get to do that. Cause you're. You have your own money. Yeah, that's the best part. Yeah. No kids. Yeah.
Guest Female
I love having no kids.
Bobby Bones
Lots of money.
Eddie
I have nothing to say to that.
Bobby Bones
It's like, you can't retire, dude.
Eddie
It's tough. It's tough over here. Like, she's talking about her vacation. You know what my vacation was? I did nothing. Like, I drove the kids to school, dropped them off. I did play a little golf. Played golf. And then I pick him up from school, take him to practice the last.
Bobby Bones
Because we take two weeks every summer. The last vacation, I did nothing. I stayed home the whole time.
Eddie
Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
You're.
Eddie
You're a sink. No, he's a d. He's a d. Whatever that is.
Bobby Bones
We're a. Yeah. No, I was going to do dogs Butt. Dogs. Bd.
Eddie
Oh, yeah.
Bobby Bones
One dog that's very expensive because he's always sick. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So just kids.
Eddie
Oh, me? Yeah. Dude. Nothing. I mean, I try to. I try to visualize my. My. And visualize.
Bobby Bones
Not a word.
Eddie
Visualize. There you go. I tried to visualize my My retirement life, I was like, all right, if I was retired right now, this is how I would live it. Because I didn't, you know, I wasn't coming to work. So I'd wake up early, make the kids breakfast, take them to school, drop them off, go to the golf course, squeeze in a little tea time. I'd play for three or four hours, and then I'd go home, get a little lunch, pick them up. It was kind of cool, dude. The only thing I didn't do is fish, which I would do in my retirement.
Bobby Bones
But if you were retired, your kids wouldn't be in school, right?
Mike D
That's the thing. Like, retirement is not having to run errands every day. Like, take your kids to school. That would be terrible, because then you're busy every day. Retirement is where you don't have to do anything.
Eddie
Oh, I think retirement's just when you don't work.
Bobby Bones
Well, then you have to work. No, that. That would be. That would not have a job. Well, there's a difference. Retirement. You're probably older. You have retirement saved up. Your kids aren't 10.
Eddie
Yeah, I know.
Bobby Bones
You have kids older and kids younger, but your kids aren't 10. So you don't have that. Because usually when you retire, you're 65. 60, you know, unless you're Al Pacino.
Eddie
But I've seen, like. I've seen, like, some athletes, you know, who, like, don't play ball anymore, and they just kind of like, they're retired.
Bobby Bones
Because they made millions again. That is an abnormality, too.
Mike D
Now. That would be awesome.
Eddie
That's awesome.
Mike D
They just sit around and they just, like. You wonder what they do all day.
Eddie
Like, my wife says one of them, like, comes and brings donuts to the teachers every morning.
Bobby Bones
One of, like, an athlete.
Eddie
Yeah, an athlete takes. Brings donuts to the teachers every morning. Like. Cause why He's a millionaire, doesn't have anything to do. And they love it. They're like, oh, here he comes. He's bringing donuts to all the teachers. That's cool.
Bobby Bones
Do I know the person?
Eddie
Yeah, yeah, you do.
Bobby Bones
Do I know him, know him, or do I know of him?
Eddie
I don't know if you've met him, but you know of him.
Bobby Bones
Do not want to say who it is.
Eddie
No, I don't.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Eddie
I don't.
Mike D
What's he look like?
Bobby Bones
Fair enough.
Eddie
He's a big dude.
Bobby Bones
Lunchbox. What'd you do?
Mike D
I went to London, and then we went, whoa.
Eddie
Sink.
Bobby Bones
No, there are two. It would be a dd, but they.
Mike D
Also have but we have kids.
Eddie
Oh, right, right.
Mike D
And it was $400 round trip for each ticket. Like, it was cheaper to go there than to go to Vegas or to Texas or anywhere you're looking at tickets. It's like $900 to go somewhere, like, in California and pops up 400 bucks to go to London. So we went to London, man.
Bobby Bones
Not London, Texas.
Mike D
No, London, England.
Bobby Bones
How was it?
Mike D
London sucks.
Bobby Bones
I really liked it.
Mike D
I don't really get London.
Bobby Bones
The food kind of sucks. But I like the city because they have things that were, like, from the 1200s, like, 500 years, 700 years, thousand years before we even existed.
Eddie
That's amazing.
Bobby Bones
They have buildings randomly sitting next to new buildings that are that old. What did you not like about it?
Mike D
There was just not. It's a lot of. You just walk and look at old buildings and it's like, all right, cool, great. Like, I saw an old building, like. And you walk to these to, like, what are the cows? The palace. Buckingham palace or whatever.
Bobby Bones
See the guards?
Mike D
Yeah, but they're way away. Like, they're not.
Eddie
You can't get close to them.
Mike D
No, they're behind a fence, like, way over there. So it's like all these videos of people.
Bobby Bones
Sometimes they're out. You think about the right time.
Mike D
They're outside the gates.
Bobby Bones
Have you not seen people standing with the. No.
Mike D
That's why I was like, oh, they're full of crap. That doesn't happen because they're not outside the gates. Like, they were. There's a big gate around the thing, and they stand in front of the house, but you can't get anywhere close to them.
Bobby Bones
Different guards. But there are guards that come out.
Mike D
Oh, well, there was. I mean, just people standing there, and it was like, wow, okay, cool. It's a castle. You can't. You can pay to go inside of it. No one lives there. So is it really that cool?
Eddie
No one lives there?
Mike D
No.
Bobby Bones
In Buckingham Palace.
Mike D
No one lives there.
Eddie
I thought, like, the prince and I think they.
Bobby Bones
It's. I think it's kind of like the white. Like the. I think there's a quarters where people live there in that area. But they may not live in that part. Right.
Mike D
I guess. And so that's why I was like, so they don't even live there? And then we went to where.
Bobby Bones
I'm the worst on British crap.
Mike D
What is the other ones? The ones that are still in part of it. William and Kate. There's a different castle they supposedly used to live at, but they keep an apartment there. Yeah, right. There's a gift shop in there. There's. I mean, there's no way they keep an apartment there. It's all turned into tour, like a gift shop. It's like, how lame is that? And so I just didn't. I didn't think London was that cool. Yes, the old buildings were cool, but it just was like, all right. There's not much really to do. The big bin, it's just a clock that stands there. It's tall. Cool.
Bobby Bones
Buckingham palace has been the official residence of the United kingdom's monarch since 1837. The palace has five floors, 775 rooms, including 19 staterooms, 50 royal and guest bedrooms, 92 offices, and a surgical room.
Eddie
Oh, that's cool.
Bobby Bones
As well as 40 acres of gardens. No one from the current royal family lives there full time. But as he said, there's an apartment somewhere. You can get you a free T shirt gift shop.
Mike D
You can get some hot chocolate or some coffee. And they have a cafe.
Eddie
Did you get on one of those big buses, the double decker buses?
Mike D
No.
Bobby Bones
So people do live there, but not in the main building. Okay, so Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip lived in the private apartments on the north side of the palace. They're both dead though, now, right?
Eddie
I don't know. Prince Philip, that's a dad.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. He's dead. Yeah, he's dead. I know him from that show, the Crown. Okay, so they did live there, but when they died, I guess that's when. I guess. What's the other guy's name now?
Mike D
Charles.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, King Charles. Sounds weird.
Eddie
Where does he live?
Mike D
I have no idea. That's a great question.
Bobby Bones
I think he's the first one that doesn't live there.
Mike D
Then we went to the one I typed in.
Bobby Bones
Where does King Charles live? Guess what it says. London.
Eddie
Thank you.
Mike D
Yeah. We saw where Princess Diana used to live, and there's a garden there with like a statue because she used to talk to the gardeners, I mean. But the castle looked like it needed redo, needed a new roof, needed to be power washed. It was dirty.
Eddie
But did you go to Abbey Road, like where the Beatles cross the street and stuff?
Mike D
I don't care about Abbey Road.
Eddie
Okay?
Mike D
I'm not really.
Bobby Bones
So why did you go to London then? Because it sounds like all the things that it's known for, the history.
Mike D
Because it's $400.
Eddie
Because it was cheap.
Mike D
Yeah. I mean, it was 400 bucks.
Bobby Bones
A long trip for just $400, though.
Mike D
What do you mean?
Bobby Bones
Like, I mean, you could have spent 400 bucks closer and done. Something you liked.
Mike D
Trying to go to, like, California was like, $900 a ticket.
Bobby Bones
Chattanooga, well, that's.
Mike D
We can go there any weekend.
Eddie
Did you think it was, like, gonna be cooler than it was? Like, when you booked the trip to London, where you're like, this is gonna be awesome, and then you were just disappointed by it, or were you just like, this probably gonna suck, But I'll spend $400 on it?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. What was your expectation?
Mike D
I think my wife more thought London. And so I was like, okay. I mean, everybody talks about London. You always see those Hard Rock Cafe London shirts that people always have.
Bobby Bones
I really don't always see them, but I understand. I understand.
Mike D
And so we went, and I was just like, I don't really get it. I just don't understand. It's just another big city.
Eddie
What don't you get? Like, it's just a city.
Mike D
Right, Right.
Bobby Bones
It's literally just. It's a big city.
Mike D
Right. That's all.
Bobby Bones
With a lot of culture.
Mike D
Like, there was just a big city. And, like, we saw the. The Jewel, I guess. The Jewel.
Bobby Bones
You see Big Ben.
Mike D
It's just a clock.
Bobby Bones
Well, everything's just a something. No, but listen, could there have been, though, for you to enjoy it?
Mike D
I don't know.
Eddie
Naked women?
Mike D
Yeah, right.
Bobby Bones
Like, I don't understand.
Mike D
Like, Big Ben was just a clock. Okay. It was fine.
Eddie
Was it working?
Mike D
Yeah.
Eddie
Okay.
Mike D
But there was other clocks on old churches that looked cooler than that Big Bend.
Bobby Bones
And there are buildings that are bigger than the Empire State Building and buildings that look. But Empire State Building is cool because it's been there. It's historical.
Mike D
Yeah. That's what I didn't understand, the clock. I was like, what's the big deal? It's a big clock in the middle of an area. But there's other clocks that looked a lot cooler to me on old churches. It was like, man, you go to a show.
Bobby Bones
We went to a show. Like, a Broadway show. They have their own version of Broadway. I forget what it's called. I think it's called London Way or something.
Eddie
Oh, makes sense.
Mike D
Yeah. We did. We went to Titanique.
Bobby Bones
So you did go to a show, take your kids to this?
Mike D
No.
Bobby Bones
Oh, just you and your wife?
Mike D
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I thought you should have enjoyed it more then. I thought the kids were keeping you from enjoying stuff.
Mike D
No, no, no, no.
Bobby Bones
The West End is what it is.
Mike D
And it was like a story about the Titanic. It was a Titanic museum, like, and they were talking about it, and they're doing a tour and Celine Dion interrupts the tour and says, let me tell you what really happened on the Titanic. I was there and it was a.
Eddie
Story about that, but she wasn't there.
Mike D
Oh, my God, Eddie. It's a written whatever play or whatever.
Eddie
Got it.
Bobby Bones
You didn't like it?
Mike D
No, it was funny. The. The play was funny. My wife liked it a lot more because they made musical jokes like about other musicals or whatever. And I had no idea what they were. The jokes were. But yeah, they were. It was funny. And the girl was really good that did Celine Dion because she did like facial expressions and was like, oh, you guys are the best crowd. And just like, I thought she was funny because you see clips of Celine Dion. That's how her facial expressions are. But yeah, I didn't think London was all that cool.
Bobby Bones
Sounds like you didn't know what to do when you got there.
Mike D
Well, I mean. What do you mean? Well, I wouldn't look at things I walked through. I mean, they had some cool. They. They had a lot of parts.
Bobby Bones
Did you go to any museum?
Mike D
No, we didn't go to museum.
Eddie
Did you do the subway? The underground?
Mike D
Yeah, we did that. Did the tube. They call it the tube.
Eddie
Oh, the tube.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Idiot.
Mike D
Yeah. Come on.
Eddie
Is that what they called the tube?
Mike D
Yeah.
Eddie
What's the. Oh, luge.
Bobby Bones
No, the luge is an event where you get on and you go to the ice. The Louvre.
Eddie
That.
Bobby Bones
That's a museum in Paris.
Eddie
Paris. Got it.
Bobby Bones
It's where the Mona Lisa.
Eddie
Okay, I see. I would have been disappointed if I went to London looking for the luge or Louvre for either.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, either one.
Mike D
You'd be disappointed.

Guest Male
We did a staycation and then didn't leave the house.
Bobby Bones
Anything? Any news? Notes? Events?
Guest Male
Staycation was great. We dropped a hotel penthouse downtown for the weekend.
Bobby Bones
Oh, you didn't stay at your own place, you came here, right?
Eddie
Nashville got but you Said you never left the house.
Bobby Bones
That's why I was confused.
Mike D
He said then he didn't leave the house.
Bobby Bones
Right.
Guest Male
Transition word.
Eddie
Got it.
Guest Male
But the staycation originally was awesome. We did a pool party. We had the stand up to cancer event that aired on, was it Friday night. It was a huge nationwide thing. That was cool. Laura got to be part of it. And there was only about, I'd say 2,000 people in there. So it's pretty exclusive. It was like Jonas Brothers, Reese Witherspoon, Katie Couric, brothers Osborne, Dan and Shea.
Bobby Bones
What was the deal with the pool party?
Guest Male
The pool party? Pool parties have changed. I haven't been to one in a couple years. Now there's a guest list now you pay $50 ahead. Now the girls don't wear anything for bottoms. It's all thongs.
Eddie
Oh, yeah. I thought it was like bare bottoms.
Guest Male
Like, what if you're wearing coverage, you're overdressed.
Bobby Bones
Wait, so where is this pool party hotel?
Guest Male
I don't really want to name it because I had some complaints as well, but.
Bobby Bones
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What? Just because you complain or did somebody complain about you?
Guest Male
Well, no, I. I complained just because our friends had to get seated away from us. They were way too strict for something we paid for. And all of a sudden we pay for something and it doesn't even really get going. The DJ didn't get there till four and we paid for one.
Bobby Bones
If I. It says one feels very London based, like you didn't know what you were getting into. True. And then you got there and you're upset with what was there.
Guest Male
Just didn't know that pool party people just play on their phones now. I mean, was the DJ really bringing us the music? I mean, I could have went to a my old apartment pool party had been better than that one. It just really didn't seem like I needed to be part pay for that.
Bobby Bones
Sounds to me like you don't like the water. And I totally feel that. Oh, yeah, no need to get in the water.
Eddie
Yep.
Bobby Bones
That was like Vegas. It does sound like, right?
Eddie
Like Vegas pool. You have to pay for it.
Bobby Bones
Everybody's in thongs. You're paying for it. Yeah. And.
Guest Male
And they go, oh, if you leave your seat that somebody else can grab it in 30 minutes.
Bobby Bones
What, so I gotta like in 30 minutes you're gonna come back to your seat every 30 minutes?
Guest Male
Well, if you got a drink and you're in the pool talking, sometimes you lose track of time. So I just got to keep one of my hands on the Chair.
Bobby Bones
What?
Guest Male
Just weird stuff like that.
Bobby Bones
It's like the hands on a hard body documentary where they can't take their hand off the motorcycle or the car.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And whoever lasts the longest wins it. All right.
Guest Male
But yeah, we dipped early on that. And then the staycation. I really just wanted to make myself bored. I wanted to come back to work, ready to come back to work. And that's exactly what I did. I was so. I was like, this is brutal. I don't know if I can do retirement. It was bad.
Eddie
That's crazy you guys think that way. Like I could do nothing all day.
Guest Male
Well, because my wife was still working, so she was working from home. And I'd wake up and I'd be like, oh my gosh, what am I? I gotta find somewhere to go. I can't. I can't hear one more conference call. Like, I'm just gonna go walk in the neighborhood by myself.
Bobby Bones
Aimlessly. I struggle with doing nothing. You don't love it.
Eddie
I can do nothing forever, for the rest of my life.
Bobby Bones
What does that mean, do nothing though?
Eddie
No, no, I would do stuff. I just wouldn't work. Like the walk around the neighborhood. I'd love to do. I would love to wake up in the morning, have my coffee, walk the neighborhood. Morning, Jim. Morning, Pam. Pam, the yard looks great. I would love that. And they'd be like, Eddie's awesome. He doesn't do anything all day. He just comes and says hi to me. It's like sometimes I see him with his golf clubs, he goes somewhere for a little bit, comes back, my yard would be perfect.
Guest Male
Right, but don't you think sometimes people look down on you though because you're just walking the neighborhood?
Eddie
Who cares?
Guest Male
See, when I was walking the neighborhood, I was like, man, those people really don't have a purpose. They're just walking and retired.
Eddie
There's a lady that like, it lives in my neighborhood. She doesn't work, has a nice house, nice car, not married, no kids. So we already have like this made up thing that she's like, she won the lottery or something.
Bobby Bones
Oh, you don't know how she got her.
Eddie
I have no idea. But like, I think the stories around, that's kind of cool where people are like, you do you ever wonder, like how she makes her money or how she can afford that house or not to work?
Bobby Bones
I always wonder how people got their money. Yeah, it's always weird. Like people that have a lot of money, like, what did you do? Mostly I have found that most people in most I'm Gonna do. Most. Most people that made their money through business in some way either knew somebody that got them a good job or they had money left to them or their family had something. In a business. Like business arts, the exact opposite. There's the occasional rich person. It is just like in business, there's the occasional person that came from nothing and. And built their way up and started a business. But most. Most aren't in arts. It's mostly people who had no money, who had nothing and came up. So if they were like a musician, I would put an athlete in the art category as well.
Eddie
But, yeah, I met a guy that invented some kind of bearing for, like a wheel.
Bobby Bones
Oh, man.
Eddie
And then sold it. Sold it to some company. Like, was he engineer? Yeah. And like, that's. He's like, I stopped working when I was like, 37.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. That's pretty cool.
Eddie
That's amazing.
Bobby Bones
And I think I could retire now if I really wanted to.
Eddie
You should, dude. You should. You would. I think you would discover a whole new you.
Bobby Bones
I don't want to know that. Me, like, I get a lot of joy out of. And this job has changed a lot in the past few years, especially, like, how the company wants me to do all these different things now because it's all about, you know, monetizing this radio show, podcasts. But I think I just like to build stuff. I don't know. That's fun to me.
Eddie
Like. Like Legos, like. What do you mean?
Bobby Bones
Like shows, like, even shows that I don't do. So I think I just. I enjoy that.
Eddie
That's cool.
Bobby Bones
I enjoy that.
Eddie
Yeah, but that's.
Bobby Bones
I mean, I got a lot of stuff to say.
Eddie
Can't you do that kind of in the backseat?
Bobby Bones
What do you mean?
Eddie
Where you kind of just show up and be like, here, do this show.
Bobby Bones
I kind of. I need structure. I like structure. I like to build my own structure.
Eddie
You like waking up?
Bobby Bones
I hate it.
Eddie
That's what I'm saying. I hate waking up.
Bobby Bones
It's the worst. That's the worst.
Eddie
I hate waking up by appointment.
Bobby Bones
That's the only thing that I like about vacation, is that I can sleep.
Eddie
How late were you waking up the first time?
Bobby Bones
Six. Six thirty. Which is not. Doesn't feel good. But the second time, 9:30 or 10.
Eddie
Let's go.
Bobby Bones
Because I'll wake up and know that I can't go right back to sleep. So wake up, eat a little something, walk around for a second, lay back down, go back to sleep.
Eddie
That's awesome.
Bobby Bones
That I like. That's my favorite part about it.
Eddie
You do that with your in laws.
Bobby Bones
Like, oh yeah, I do now.
Eddie
You just wake up late.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Where they've been up for like four.
Bobby Bones
Hours and you're like, don't give a crap.
Eddie
That's good.
Bobby Bones
Not that I don't care about them. I don't. I mean they, they know where they are. They know their way around.
Eddie
Yeah, I, I just, I guess I just always feel a little bad, like, oh, the son in law that wakes up after everyone.
Bobby Bones
They also know I have a crazy schedule that I wake up butt crack early every day and I think they're kind of rooting for me to sleep.
Eddie
They want that.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. The only weird part is if I don't turn the alarm off, I know they wake up and they can't leave the house because I set the alarm and if I don't wake up late, they can't get out.
Guest Male
I'll look.
Bobby Bones
And there's a text from three hours ago that said, has anyone turned the alarm off? And no one has. So they're just trapped in the house. So that, that's a thing.
Eddie
Yeah, that's different.
Bobby Bones
But yeah, we're done. Sean Kingston was sentenced to three and a half years in prison after being convicted of a one million dollar fraud scheme. Sean Kingston sings. You're just too beautiful girl.
Eddie
You met, you met him, huh?
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah, long time ago. Suicidal. Suicidal. Dabba doo daba doo doo doo. It was a one million dollar fraud scheme which he leveraged his fame to dupe sellers into giving him luxury items he never paid for. I think his mom's in trouble too.
Eddie
So like he just. It's just people bottom stuff.
Bobby Bones
Kingston, whose legal name is Kishan Paul Anderson, and his mother were convicted in March by a federal jury of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and four counts of wire fraud. He was sentenced to five years in prison. I would like for this to be broken down in a way that I could understand it because I understand. Let me just ask my assistant here.
Eddie
She's so helpful.
Bobby Bones
She is. Hey, hope you're having a good day. I have a question. In the news, Sean Kingston was sentenced to three and a half years in prison. And it says for a $1 million fraud scheme. Can you explain, like I'm five, what exactly he was doing? Sure. So imagine Internet's bad. Sorry, go ahead. No problem at all. So basically, if we put it in like your five terms, Sean Kingston kind of pretended he was going to pay for really fancy things like expensive jewelry or luxury stuff, but then he didn't actually pay for them. He used the fact that he was famous to sort of trick people into handing over those things. That added up to about a million dollars worth of stuff. And that's why he got in trouble and has to go to prison for a few years.
Eddie
Okay.
Bobby Bones
So basically he would say, I got you. Give it to me and I'll be sure to pay you. And then he just never did. That's kind of what that sounds like.
Eddie
And people just came to collect, and he didn't.
Mike D
Didn't have the money. He sent him fake invoices saying he paid for it. Like he had sent the money and had never sent it.
Eddie
Dang.
Bobby Bones
It's like 11 here where we are, and I think the building starts to get on the Internet. Crazy.
Eddie
Oh.
Bobby Bones
People are like, that's why my assistant's like, anybody watch the Anna Paulina Luna Joe Rogan interview? Because she's a congresswoman and she was talking about this stuff she had seen and that. Oh, man, I only watched it clips online. But Representative Anna Paulina Luna said during a Wednesday podcast episode with Joe Rogan that lawmakers have seen evidence of interdimensional beings.
Eddie
Interdimensional? What does that mean?
Bobby Bones
Quote, I think they can actually operate through the time spaces that we currently have. And that's not something I came up with on my own. That's stuff based on stuff that we've seen. In February, she sent letters to the Secretary of State, Mark Rubio, to Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and the SCIA director requesting a briefing on all the records in their possession related to unidentified anomalous phenomena, which is basically UFOs. But they don't just fly now. They go interdimensionally based on testimony. She said that would be based on witnesses that have come forward. But what I can tell you is that what we're told and they've seen things, and what I can tell you without getting classified, there have been incidences that I believe are credible. People have reported. There have been movement outside of time and space from the Hill.
Eddie
You understand what that means?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, because it's not people flying in from space. It's people. How would I explain this? There's a radio band. Think of the old radios, okay? You move the band, you see all the numbers, and you see that little line go through. All of that exists all around us. All the stations are all around us all the time. But you have to put that on an exact number in order to catch that frequency. And it's saying there are things in other frequencies that we can't see or hear that are here around us and they can come into our frequency, then.
Eddie
We can see them at the same time. Time with our same time length. Not like Stranger Things where it's like another dimension.
Bobby Bones
No, that's exactly what it is.
Eddie
Oh, there is.
Bobby Bones
I wouldn't say exactly like Stranger Things specifically, but that's exactly what they're saying. There are things that we can't see that are right in front of us. Because although we're all here at the same time. Like the radio band.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
If you're listening on 102.3. But also there's 96.7. They both are there, but you have to put that needle on one of them for it to hear that. But it's all there. It's like Netflix. All those shows are there. All you have to do is go to one and hit that frequency to receive it. And that we're on one frequency and there are things on other frequencies that we can't see around us and that they know how to get to our frequency.
Eddie
Oh, so those could be the aliens.
Bobby Bones
Well, alien is a word that little green men come out. Okay.
Eddie
I mean, it is crazy to think that, like, the. Our Internet waves and radio waves, everything's.
Bobby Bones
Around us right now.
Mike D
Our.
Eddie
Our telephone. Our phone signals. Like all that's around us right now. We can't see any of that.
Bobby Bones
So air.
Eddie
We can't see the air.
Bobby Bones
What they're saying is just because we can't see it or smell it or hear it doesn't mean it's not there. And that can be these beings that could take organic form or not.
Eddie
Yeah. The being part, that's where it's like, I get kind of lost. But. Yeah, I mean, I understand. There are a lot of things that we can't see. It's crazy.
Bobby Bones
That's a congresswoman saying that.
Eddie
Yeah, but she's like, just.
Bobby Bones
She's what?
Eddie
I mean, it's just a politician.
Mike D
Yeah. That doesn't mean that she's smarter.
Bobby Bones
That's not her running for office. But. But she has been.
Eddie
But she's just a person.
Bobby Bones
But she has seen things that we're not allowed to see.
Eddie
That's true. She has access to things that we.
Bobby Bones
Don'T have access to because she was elected to a place. She has access to things we have not been able to.
Eddie
You don't sound like a thing when you're out of office or you're like, you can't talk about that stuff.
Mike D
I would assume you had to be like you can't reveal our secrets, right?
Bobby Bones
It depends. She did that. She said, I can't say this other stuff because it's confidential. She did exactly what you're saying you.
Eddie
Can'T do, but told us what she could say.
Bobby Bones
Yes. She's also been like. And I've watched her do these panels where she talked. I won't spend too much time on this. I'll just move off of it.
Eddie
No, no, I'm interested.
Bobby Bones
When they have to, like, testify to Congress. She's one of the main ones, if not the main one up there.
Eddie
Oh, I've probably seen her taking in the question on TikTok.
Bobby Bones
I'm gonna read you a story here. This is from Fox 35. Orlando, Florida. Man's cross that he was wearing saved his life from a stray bullet. Quote, God is definitely real. Aiden Perry was at a friend's house when he was accidentally shot in the chest by a.40 caliber pistol. In June, Perry was rushed to the HCA Florida Ocala Hospital and taken to the operating room. He survived the gunshot wound. He was wearing his gold necklace with a cross pendant, which medics believe could have split the bullet, sparing his major organs from damage. The bullet entered Perry's chest, exiting near his armpit. Now, I believe God is definitely real, but I believe this is a very selfish thing to say.
Eddie
What part? That.
Bobby Bones
That because a bullet hits his cross, that God's definitely real? Because what about all the people that were wearing something and a bullet went on their body and killed them? Does that mean God is not real?
Eddie
No, it could be. Could be God's real, but they weren't wearing a cross.
Bobby Bones
What are people that are wearing crosses? And it hits near the cross, but doesn't hit the cross and it goes into the body and kills them. Does that mean God? No, it doesn't mean God's not real. I don't think this has anything to do with God picking this specific person to go, well, since you're wearing a cross, I'm gonna make sure it hits the cross and saves you. Because I'm gonna show you I'm real. Because that means everybody that has died that's wearing a cross, according to this logic, God is not real.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And I don't believe that. But I do believe it's selfish to say that.
Eddie
I wonder if that.
Bobby Bones
Because if that's the reason. Yeah, because that means everybody who died. It's unfair to everybody who died. So that means everybody who didn't make it. It's like an athlete. It's like I'd like to thank God. So did God root against the other team that lost?
Eddie
Does God even care if the team wins or loses?
Mike D
I don't know.
Eddie
I don't know. Maybe.
Bobby Bones
Did he have the spread?
Eddie
Is God gambling on it? Don't know.
Bobby Bones
So whenever. Because you can believe, and I do, that God is real. However, I don't think God picked some people to die that wear a cross and people that don't die to wear a cross because it hit this guy's cross.
Eddie
What would be cool, though, is if this guy didn't believe in God, and then when this happened, he's just like, oh, my gosh, now I believe in God because it saved me. That's kind of cool.
Bobby Bones
What about people who don't believe in God that get shot and die? Or people that do believe in God and get shot and die? Does that affect any.
Eddie
I mean, whatever happens after they're dead. I don't know, man. They know. I know what you're saying. I see what you're saying. But I'd say it'd be pretty cool for this guy to believe in, like.
Mike D
Well, he already believes in God because he has the cross necklace on.
Eddie
Yeah. But if he did.
Bobby Bones
But could just be wearing it to look like. Yeah.
Eddie
How big was this cross?
Bobby Bones
I don't know.
Mike D
I picture it like, it was just a regular little.
Bobby Bones
I picture, like, flavor.
Mike D
Flavors clock.
Eddie
You're like, well, yeah, we all wore that big one.
Bobby Bones
It was a small cross. Wow. And I'm happy that that bullet was fortunate enough to hit the cross, and it basically, it deflected off of it and went to another part's body.
Eddie
That's crazy.
Bobby Bones
But by going, well, God saved me. That means God has chosen not to save certain other people who got shot.
Eddie
You said God is real.
Mike D
God is for sure real now, so.
Bobby Bones
But the people that were shot, does that mean God's fake? My point is, I don't think it has anything to do with that being real or fake.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Just. Yeah. Pretty fortunate to hit the cross. And that's why I wear 19 crosses. I pull my shirt open. It's all. It's just to protect myself from bullets.
Eddie
Dude, just wear a bulletproof vest, man.
Bobby Bones
Kids took a joyride in a train, a real train.
Eddie
Like, they. They stole it.
Bobby Bones
They used YouTube to figure out how to drive it.
Mike D
Wow.
Bobby Bones
Two teens were arrested in South Carolina last weekend after taking a train on a joyride. Authorities said they figured out how to drive it on YouTube. It caused a derailment, though, and caused major damage.
Eddie
Okay.
Bobby Bones
That's they didn't hard drive it well enough.
Eddie
That's crazy, though, that it would derail. I would think it's just on a track, like, you just go.
Mike D
Yeah, it seems like it would.
Bobby Bones
You think that?
Eddie
Like, do they steer it? Like, is there a steering wheel on a train? Because I've never been on a. What is that? Not a cockpit. What is that? The caboose.
Bobby Bones
The other caboose is the end.
Mike D
The engine.
Eddie
Yeah, the engine.
Mike D
The conductor, he.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I don't know what it's called.
Eddie
I've never been up there, so I don't know if there's a wheel or what.
Bobby Bones
Two teens were arrested in South Carolina. The miners broke into the railroad facility, started an engine. The engine.
Eddie
Right, the engine that'd probably be the cockpit.
Bobby Bones
Drove it around the yard before taking it down the rail toward a neighboring town. They reportedly went on YouTube, but they probably should have watched a video on stopping it because on the way back from the joyride, the track switched and they ran into several cars.
Eddie
Okay, that's it.
Bobby Bones
That's the problem.
Eddie
That's a problem.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. That'd be why the derailment happened from wjb.
Mike D
They were like, we're rolling.
Eddie
We can't stop now.
Bobby Bones
And they didn't know it switched tracks.
Eddie
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
An Oregon guy lost an arm trying to stop suspected car thieves by throwing a homemade grenade at them. I think the idea there's just a homemade grenade is hilarious. A Florence man faces serious charges after a homemade grenade accident left him injured. According to a probable cause affidavit, he attempted to deter suspected car thieves by throwing the device, resulting in a loss of his forearm and hand. Oh, sounds like a firework.
Eddie
Yeah.
Mike D
And then he's the one facing charges.
Bobby Bones
We had a homemade grenade.
Mike D
I know. That's what I'm saying. Just think about that. You lose your arm and you're going to prison.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
He reported seeing four individuals near his vehicle. He called the Florence police who discovered his injuries upon arrival. He said the grenade exploded in his hand as he tried to throw it at the suspects. He's charged with unlawful possession, manufacture of destructive devices. Da da da da da.
Mike D
Kazi man, your car's not worth it.
Bobby Bones
A 31 year old postal worker in California's pled guilty. After stealing credit cards and checks from people's mail and then spending the money on luxury goods and travel, she got caught up. Big stacks of cash on Instagram. I didn't expect that from the smoking gun. Yeah, she was posting big cash. Big stacks of cash. Like, flexing.
Eddie
Are these, like, credit cards that come in the mail that you can just open it up and then you call that number?
Bobby Bones
Guess so. Investigators launched a probe after more than 100 stolen cards were reported along her route. So dumb. It's so dumb to do that on your own route.
Eddie
I wonder. I wonder if she'd heard about this, or she was just like, ooh, let me try this.
Bobby Bones
They caught her in a hidden camera inside her postal vehicle. A December 2024 raid on her apartment uncovered 133 credit debit cards, 16 treasury checks, and 18 gift cards.
Eddie
Dang.
Bobby Bones
She flaunted her lavish lifestyle, by the way. If my postal worker is flaunting her lavish lifestyle, I'm gonna think something's up just at the nature of that job.
Eddie
Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
It's a good job, good benefits, but it doesn't allow you to have stacks of cash grabbing a Ferrari. Her handle was your Faulkin mom. F A W K. Your Falcon mom.
Eddie
That's scary, dude.
Bobby Bones
She posted vacation shots and stacks of cash. She now faces up to 30 years in prison as being held ahead of her sentencing October 27th. Smoking gun. That's pretty crazy.
Eddie
Our buddy. Didn't our buddy have, like, a mailman that stole his watch?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I sent him a watch for a wedding. Ahmad. Yeah, he thinks allegedly. Yeah, I sent him a watch because everybody else pretty much lived here. So I got all my groomsmen, a nice watch, and so I sent him his, and he thinks his mailman stole it. Oh. And confronted him about it. And the guy.
Eddie
I don't remember the story, but I don't remember either.
Bobby Bones
It was very fishy. Let's see if there's anything else. I think that's it there.
Mike D
Let's see.
Bobby Bones
You want to do the Carrie Underwood thing? I made a note to talk about that.
Eddie
Yeah. Did you see it?
Bobby Bones
No. I want you to say what you want to say, and then I'll respond to it.
Eddie
So I'll start by saying you guys made fun of me for posting a picture with us playing golf with Kane Brown. I posted it, and then I put his song famous Friends on the post. You guys are like, oh, gosh, how embarrassing. And that's so cringe. Well, if you look at.
Bobby Bones
You're leaving out, what, a lot of the stuff. One, you went and screenshotted it from my post. You didn't have the picture right? One. You just.
Eddie
I could have bugged you for it.
Bobby Bones
You just wanted to post it because Kane played with us.
Eddie
It's kind of cool picture.
Bobby Bones
Okay. But.
Eddie
And, you know, playing golf with Kane Brown, that's kind of cool. I'd love to share that memory, but that.
Bobby Bones
No, you just want to share it with people. And also, you don't even know Kane that way. You were just there and.
Eddie
Oh, I think Kane's a buddy.
Bobby Bones
No, you don't have his number. He came to play because I was like, hey, come play golf. Yeah. And so you were there, and he was there, and it was just a flex. You're like. You're like. You're a fucking mom, dude.
Eddie
Careful with that. And then.
Bobby Bones
And then you put the. And I didn't even care. Who cares?
Eddie
The song.
Bobby Bones
I'm giving you a hard time. But then you put his song on top of it.
Eddie
It was Kane Brown. So I'd be like, I got some famous friends.
Bobby Bones
Okay, go ahead.
Eddie
And then if you look at Carrie Underwood lunchbox, she just posted a picture of her and Shaboozi.
Mike D
And what'd she put?
Eddie
She put Shaboozie song on Boom Boom.
Mike D
Hey, Eddie, listen, I don't see anything wrong with you posting the picture, man.
Eddie
I mean, it's a cool memory to share with people like Carrie Underwood.
Bobby Bones
No, no, it's. First of all, I don't know which one I should do. First one, Carrie is more famous than Shabuzzi, by far.
Eddie
Oh, so it's not. Okay, So I see what you're saying. Like, I would be the Shaboozy in that situation.
Bobby Bones
I wouldn't even say you're just a. Like, if Kane had posted you, that'd be cool.
Eddie
He'd never do that. But.
Mike D
Oh, he didn't repost.
Eddie
You see? Okay.
Mike D
Did you invite him to be a collaborator?
Bobby Bones
No.
Mike D
That's where your mistake was.
Eddie
That would have hurt my feelings if he wouldn't have accepted.
Mike D
I get that all the time. People don't accept mine. It's very frustrating.
Eddie
You collab with people?
Mike D
Yeah. Whenever I have a picture or a video with them, I always collab. Always.
Bobby Bones
So Carrie's more famous? Yeah.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So this is her going, hey, I finally met Shaboozi. It wasn't a flex. Carrie's famous.
Eddie
I wasn't trying to flex.
Bobby Bones
Yes, you. Absolutely.
Eddie
No, no. I was trying to share a cool memory.
Bobby Bones
You are. You were like, look, Kane Brown's in my golf group.
Eddie
But I didn't even say that. I just posted the picture.
Bobby Bones
You posted his song Famous Friends, and you tagged him. What was your.
Mike D
What was your quote, just a day at the golf course or something?
Eddie
Like, what is your hanging out with my Golfing buddies or something like that.
Bobby Bones
And he put any tag cane. And you put a tag.
Eddie
You too.
Bobby Bones
I didn't need to be tagged.
Eddie
And I think I tagged Gator.
Bobby Bones
You stole it from my frigging Instagram. But the screenshot. I literally don't care. We were just making fun of you because it was a little cringy. But it's not the same as the Carrie and Shaboozi thing because Carrie is more famous than Shaboozi.
Eddie
Okay.
Mike D
Yeah. I don't see anything cringe.
Eddie
I just saw it and I was like, look.
Bobby Bones
See?
Eddie
Carrie, me. Same thing.
Mike D
Because, I mean, all you would have done was text Bobby. He would have sent you the picture. So you just took a screenshot, you cut out the middleman, save time. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I don't even care. That's not the worst part of it, that you put his song over the top and tried to act like it was just a normal day.
Eddie
It was. It was an awesome day. It wasn't a normal day. It was an awesome day.
Bobby Bones
I literally don't care. But it was just funny. It was kind of a dorky thing to do.
Eddie
Carrie's doing it too, man.
Mike D
Yep. And if Carrie does it, Eddie can do it.
Bobby Bones
It's good for the goose, good for the gander.
Eddie
That's it.
Bobby Bones
Is that what you're saying?
Eddie
All right.
Bobby Bones
I think that's it. With Amy leaving, it kind of threw off some of the stuff I wanted to talk about.
Eddie
No, it's a boring show.
Bobby Bones
I didn't say that. But with her being out, it kind of.
Eddie
It messes things up.
Bobby Bones
Messes things up a little bit. All right, well, thank you and we will see you guys tomorrow. Hope you guys have a great day. And that's it, everybody. Good?
Eddie
Good.

EVs are easy to charge as your phone and perfect for everyday life. Now, most Americans only drive about 40 miles a day and most EVs go 200 to 400 miles on a full charge. That's plenty. And with fewer parts, that means fewer repairs and fewer surprises at the mechanic. Anyone who has made the switch says the same thing. Once you go electric, you don't look back. The way forward is electric. Learn more@electricforall.org Iheart presents the Big Three.

Episode: MON PT 2: Bobby’s Hot Take On Vacation + Amy Had To Leave The Show Early + Morgan Got To Live Out Her Dream + Lunchbox Hated London + Eddie Thinks He's Like Carrie Underwood
Date: August 18, 2025
Host: Bobby Bones (with Eddie, Mike D, Lunchbox, Morgan, and other show regulars)
In this lively episode, Bobby Bones returns from vacation with hot takes, sparking debates on everything from pool days to polarizing European holidays. The team covers personal summer stories—Amy leaves early due to sickness, Morgan talks about her dream trips, Lunchbox rants about why London "sucks," and Eddie likens himself to Carrie Underwood on social media. The conversation flows through family life, retirement dreams, viral news, and a deep-dive into whether flexing for Instagram is "cringe." The tone is casual, comedic, and full of playful banter.

The crew’s banter is genuinely comedic, irreverent, and good-natured. Bobby plays contrarian and provocateur (“I think the beach is stupid now”—03:19), but with honest vulnerability and self-deprecation. Eddie often relishes classic dad roles and fantasizes about retirement, while Lunchbox provides blunt (often hilarious) skepticism about global travel. Discussions move quickly, rarely getting overly serious, and the show’s best moments come from relatable life details and ongoing friendly rivalries.
Perfect Recap for Busy Fans:
If you missed the show, you’ll come away entertained by hot takes on summer leisure, the real grind of parenting, why social media flexes get roasted, the lure (or boredom) of retirement, and how sometimes, "just a clock" can really be… just a clock.
