Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Dog Grooming, Microbiome, and Immune Health

• Amy shares a small win about getting her dog a last-minute grooming appointment and segues into science: having a dog improves your gut microbiome by introducing more diverse (“good”) bacteria to your environment.
  • Quote:

    "Having one [a dog] in your home significantly improves your gut microbiome because your dog is introducing other types of bacteria into your home that then helps you."
    (Amy, 01:22)

• The crew discusses the balance between keeping pets and feeling germy, reassuring dog owners that a little mess is actually healthy.

2. Amazon Deliveries & No-Sleep Stories

• Bobby complains about his dogs barking at a 3:30am Amazon delivery, sending the show off on a tangent about why these deliveries happen so early and how it disrupts his and his dogs’ sleep.
  • Laughter and exasperation ensue as they compare the situation to absurdly long waits for medical specialists.

3. The ‘Never Gets Sick’ Mystery: Mexican Water Immunity

• Mike D claims his childhood habit of drinking Mexican tap water gave him a super-powered immune system. He shares a hallucination-filled fever dream as a kid.
  • Quote:

    "The first time I drank it, I got so sick… I was imagining that there was this leprechaun figure clapping his hands...that's the sickest I've ever been. And ever since then, I never get sick.”
    (Mike D, 03:23)

• The panel debates germ exposure, gut health, childhood factors, and the actual science, with playful suspicion and some confusion.
• Notably, Amy throws out facts about birth, breastfeeding, and the immune system, tying this all back to new-parent Bobby’s upcoming journey.

4. The Children Germ Theory

• Lunchbox argues that being around young kids relentlessly brings illness, sparking a good-natured debate about whether parental exposure makes you tougher (teachers, anyone?).
  • Quote:

    "As an adult, you don't get sick until you're around children… You, my friend, I'm telling you, just wait...when that kid goes to kindergarten. Oh boy, you are gonna get your earth rocked."
    (Lunchbox, 05:04)

5. Show Members’ Mini “Good News” Stories

• Lunchbox finds a babysitter last minute after six others decline, musing about the desperation of the “babysitter drought” and joking that maybe they’re avoiding his “germy” house.
• Amy announces:

  "I don't think I want to drink anymore."
  (Amy, 08:27)

  • She shares how her social media feed and following of health professionals is convincing her that even moderate alcohol is harmful:

    "Alcohol is a carcinogen no matter what way you spin it… we've been conditioned to think it's fine to have…and I just don't know anymore that it is."
    (Amy, 08:34–08:39)

• The crew rib her about possibly getting drunk and swearing off alcohol, but Amy doubles down on her new perspective.

6. Wild Conspiracies and Texts at Night

• Bobby describes Amy sending him late-night DMs about wild conspiracy theories (body doubles, aliens).
  • Quote:

    "There was like Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein had body doubles… and I said, Amy, go to bed."
    (Bobby, 10:03)

• They riff on alien revelations, government distractions, and Amy’s tongue-in-cheek “Department of Distraction/DO, WTF.”
• Bobby does his Obama impression, speculates about government slow-walking alien info.
  • Quote:

    "What's the deal with aliens?"
    (Bobby, as Obama/Seinfeld hybrid, 13:06)

7. More “Tell Me Something Good” – Mailman Heroics & Marathon Madness

• Bobby spotlights a mailman (Bruce in Pittsburgh) who hand-delivered a lost wallet 50 miles beyond his postal route.
  • Quote:

    "Postal officials say Bruce never sought recognition and only wanted to spread joy..."
    (Bobby, 17:21)

• Lunchbox tells the story of Anthony Simonetti:
  • Ran 7 marathons on 7 continents in 7 consecutive days to raise $72,000 for St. Jude Children’s Hospital.
  • The team’s minds are blown by the logistics—Antarctic airports? Time zone skipping?—with jokes about “tour routing” and international travel confusion.
  • Lunchbox shares that Anthony’s next challenge is climbing Mount Kilimanjaro for charity.

8. Everyday Gratitude

• Eddie’s good news: After expecting a giant water bill from a pipe burst, he actually gets the lowest ever ($70), likely because the pipes froze before dumping much water.
  (13:45–14:11)
• Bobby’s good news: His wife (who’s pregnant) thoughtfully ordered him a burger and fries after a late day at work.
  • Quote:

    "She didn't cook anything. She's pregnant. And so I just got home and… it was just there."
    (Bobby, 14:41)

Transcript

[A]

This is an iHeart podcast. Guaranteed Human.

[B]

I'm Bobby Bones from the Bobby Bones Show. Whether you're a seasoned small business owner or if you're just thinking about getting started, check out season four of Mind the Business small business success stories from iHeartMedia's Ruby Studio and Intuit QuickBooks. In this latest season, hosts Austin Hankwitz and Janice Torres are talking to self starters about the ins and outs of entrepreneurship and how QuickBooks helps you get more done in less time. You won't want to miss it. Listen to Mind the Business Small business success Stories on the iHeart app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It's time for the good news. Tell me something good. You're first.

[A]

So let's see. My dog needed a bath, like really bad. Like groomed because she started to get matte. Her hair grows out and it gets matted if you don't brush it a lot. And I got a little behind on that. So I called to try to book her an appointment and they don't have any openings for a month at the dog place.

[B]

For a month?

[A]

Yeah, we're. We're the. The place that's most convenient for me to take her. And they do a really great job and they have a great price.

[B]

Who do they think they are? The testicle doctor?

[A]

The pussy right now?

[C]

Ridiculous.

[A]

Then I get a call yesterday last minute, because they know that I live super close, and they're like, we just had a cancellation. If you can get her up here right now. I was like, yeah, so that was awesome to take her in. But then also I'm on a walk yesterday, listening to a podcast about our microbiome and just speaking of, like, cleaning dogs or even just having a dog in general, having one in your home significantly improves your gut microbiome because your dog is introducing other types of bacteria into your home that then helps you. So if you have a dog, feel good about that and you're like, freaking out your bacteria.

[B]

Yeah, like a. Would you compare it to bacteria?

[A]

Like, good bacteria, the stuff in your gut that's crucial to it functioning properly. And so when you have a dog, it makes the bacteria in your home more diverse. So it's good. So sometimes if you're freaking out, like, ugh, my dog, like, I always want to wipe her paws off.

[B]

And I still should.

[A]

I still should. And I buy these wipes. I know she's got other things, but sometimes I just really overthink it and I'm like, oh, this is disgusting. I can't believe we have a dog just like all over my stuff. And then I just thought I'd give you that encouragement. Encouragement of like, maybe if you're thinking about getting a dog and you're worried about your microbiome, problem solved.

[B]

I wanted to shoot my dog this morning.

[A]

Why wait does it tell me something good?

[B]

I know, and it's not a dog problem. It's that our dogs, if somebody drives up, they go crazy, obviously. Especially at night. Amazon showed up like 3:30 in the morning.

[D]

In the morning?

[B]

Yes.

[D]

What are they thinking?

[B]

Exactly. So the dogs. And so I think all of a sudden somebody's breaking in. So, all right, I get up, but

[E]

I do it slow.

[B]

I do it slow. Obviously got a gun. I didn't grab the gun because it could have also been an animal, but I was trying to figure out what was up with the dogs and I figured out it was Amazon. I don't know why they come that early.

[A]

That's crazy.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Sometimes you can order next day and it'll say, come between 4am and 8am do you ever see that as an option? Well, this was 3:30, but 4am is still too early as an option to come by. Dogs are freaking out. So that happened. And then speaking of your immune system, Mike thinks he doesn't get sick because of the Mexican water he drank as a kid, which I thought was super interesting.

[E]

Yeah, I drank it as a kid. And I feel like that just totally helped my immune system because the first time I drank it, I got so sick that I hallucinated I had a crazy fever. I was imagining that there was this leprechaun figure clapping his hands. And I'm like, mom, there's a little leprechaun right there clapping his hands. What do you mean? You don't see it? And my mom started freaking out. I heard like, two people playing tennis and they took me to the doctor in Mexico. That's like the sickest I've ever been. And ever since then, I never get sick.

[A]

Hmm. I believe it. Did your parents drink it?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Do you know if you breastfed? I did see, he was getting it from his mom. I believe it. They say that, like, even when we're born. And like, Bobby, you're going to have a baby soon. When it comes, when we come out of the birth canal, there's all this fluid and stuff. And a lot of times, you know, spoiler alert, in case you don't know. But there's fecal matter mixed in with all of that. But that is good. The baby's Mouth is open and crying. And that's like. They say if you have a C section, that sometimes they'll take fluid from the birth canal and, like, the other stuff, and they rub it on the baby so it gets into them. And then when you breastfeed, you're also getting stuff that way that's crucial to the formation of your gut microbiome, and you build your immunity. Then.

[B]

Do you see leprechauns?

[E]

Not anymore.

[C]

I don't know.

[A]

I mean, I'm just saying. But maybe Mike. I mean, maybe he's onto something.

[B]

Then how come Lunchbox is still sick every day, right?

[A]

Maybe he.

[D]

Cause he lives. Gross.

[A]

Lunchbox. Did you come out of the birth canal?

[C]

No. No, I came out of the birth canal. And the reason Mike doesn't get sick is he's not around children. I'm telling you, as an adult, you don't get sick until you're around children. When you're around children.

[B]

Eddie has four kids.

[D]

Four kids, man.

[C]

No, no. And Eddie, when they were young, did you get sick all the time?

[D]

Not like you.

[B]

And you weren't around him. One is still five, six, still young.

[D]

Yeah, yeah, once. I mean, he's seven now, but. Yeah.

[B]

Yeah. Well, I just had a birthday. Just had a birthday. Just had a birthday, to be clear.

[D]

And I'm not sick all the time.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

No.

[B]

So I.

[D]

That makes no sense.

[B]

Did your kids make your testicle swell or give you.

[C]

I have been sick, like, one time in the last, like, year you also come in.

[B]

That's not true. Because you came in a few weeks ago. Like, I have no voice.

[C]

That's allergies.

[A]

I don't think he counts that as sick.

[B]

Anytime your body cannot do what it normally does. That's sick. You're sick.

[C]

Yeah, I would say that's an. That's allergies. I mean, it happens. Everybody gets allergies. I can't control that.

[B]

I'm not holding it against you. I'm just saying, how is he not immune to it by now?

[C]

Because I'm telling you, kids bring germs that you. I don't know how it is, but the type of germs they bring is just not compatible with an adult. And you, my friend, I'm telling you, just wait. I don't know if your kid's gonna go to daycare, but if not in five years, when that kid goes to kindergarten. Oh, boy, you are gonna get your earth rocked.

[B]

Don't teachers eventually get immune to it? Like teachers? I know.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Yep.

[C]

But you.

[D]

So why wouldn't you?

[B]

Yeah, right.

[D]

And you got tuberculosis and all kinds of stuff.

[A]

Well, that was a long time ago.

[D]

But no kids.

[B]

That's still on the checklist.

[A]

I know. I think what we're talking about is early development, like maybe some stuff like he.

[D]

Yeah, but we're also talking about lunchbox.

[B]

Always generally like his stomach.

[A]

I know. Just generally like it's been weak for.

[B]

Yeah, no, it's all this stuff. His kid didn't hurt his stomach. His kid didn't hurt his testicle.

[A]

Yeah. I don't know guys. Just tell me something good.

[C]

Right?

[A]

Gosh, Sorry.

[B]

Lunchbox. You can go next.

[C]

Man, I don't know if I have anything good to say, man. I'm very depressed right now.

[B]

I was just asking a science backed question.

[C]

Yeah, I mean I would like to know the science behind it too. Because I don't understand how kids germs rock certain people so hard. Like it is just crazy to me. I don't know, I just. I wish I could help you. I wish I could. Am I still going?

[A]

Yes.

[B]

It's up to you.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

Oh, yeah. I would like to just say that I'm excited because my wife was able to find a babysitter for tonight. We're supposed to go out with some friends for a neighbor's birthday and man, we'd called like six babysitters and nothing, nothing, nothing. And last night she got a call from number six on the list, said I can babysit, so we're going out to a nice dinner.

[B]

Sounds like the insurance companies, doesn't it?

[D]

Same story.

[B]

Like everybody keeps saying no for probably reasons why. Did you think that was a funny story?

[A]

Same thing. Like, do they know, like they might get sick.

[D]

They're like, don't go to that house.

[B]

They show up in one of those suits, one of those hazmat suits. I'm here to babysit. What do you guys do? Just going to dinner with neighbors.

[C]

He said, yeah, it's one of the neighbors, his wife, it's her birthday. And so he. I guess he made reservations somewhere. I don't even know where.

[B]

Where are you guys going?

[C]

I don't know. I don't know like what it is. I don't know the name of it. I just know that he said he's not drinking so he'll drive. So we have a ride and that's. There you go, guys.

[A]

I don't think I want to drink anymore.

[D]

What? That's not true. Did you get drunk last night or something?

[B]

Like, what's happened recently?

[A]

Because like algorithm, my Algorithm, it's poison.

[C]

It.

[A]

Yes. Like doctors that I follow that are like, guys, alcohol is a carcinogen no matter what way you spin it. And I get it. It's also a business, so a lot of people make a lot of money off of it. And we have been raised to think that it's okay in moderation. And I'm starting to wonder, like, I just don't know that it is. But we were conditioned to think like, oh well, it's not that bad as long as you're not an alcoholic. Like it's fine to have. And I just don't, I don't know anymore that it is. From Geico Subconscious News, I'm Tammy Raising thoughts Tonight. You just left for work and had a non spec feeling that something was happening to your place and it wasn't good. Dan.

[D]

Exactly, Tammy.

[B]

It could be smoke damage, theft, or

[D]

just too much caffeine, but you can't

[B]

stop thinking about it.

[A]

But with renters insurance, through geico, your stuff is covered so you don't have to worry.

[B]

And that's great. Cause the weekend is coming up and

[D]

it's chock full of social obligations that

[B]

are ready to fill that void.

[A]

Oh boy, will they, dad. It feels good to worry less. It feels good to Geico.

[B]

I had to tell Amy last night to go to bed.

[A]

Why you did?

[C]

Was she texting you late?

[A]

I was at the dm.

[B]

Yeah, I can't. Amy sent me a DM last night.

[A]

That was, I guess I went to bed cause I didn't even see you tell me go to bed.

[B]

There was like Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein had body doubles.

[D]

Oh my God.

[B]

And she sent me this thing and I said, amy, go to bed. No, no, no, it's not her nothing.

[A]

It's not her nothing.

[B]

You tell me what I look at and go, there's no way that's true. Everything is in play now. Everything's in play. And now that we're gonna go to war with Iran and we're also going to have Trump release alien files, it's all distraction. This is the most. Let's distract from the FC finals.

[A]

He just said they've got like 10 days or bad things will happen.

[B]

So we're gonna go to war with Iran, Most likely.

[A]

Oh my God.

[B]

They've been saying that they're prepared now to go. They've moved the carriers over, everything's ready, nobody wants that. Second of all, Obama gets on a podcast and says that the guy asks him, are aliens real? And he goes, yeah, yeah, but I ain't seen him. You know, he does his Obama thing. And so then everybody goes, oh, they're freaking out. And Trump goes, he can't say that. That's classified. And then Trump's like, I'm gonna release all the classified information in a tweet. And he told Pete Hexis to do it. So it's like, we're going to war with Iran, we're giving alien secrets. It's all just divert from the other side.

[A]

Then Obama backtracked.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

But he was like, I don't think he. I think he really was saying stuff too. He was like, yeah, they're aliens, but it's not like, tear it down.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

I'm just saying, like, there's no underground bunker or anything. Yeah. Who said anything about a bunker?

[A]

Right. Okay. Well, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[C]

Weird.

[A]

Yeah. I don't know this. I just feel whatever this narrative is right now, I want out of it. I want out.

[D]

So, Amy, are you staying up late reading this stuff?

[B]

It was 9:18 when she texted me

[A]

that I was in bed.

[B]

Yeah, yeah. And I hit her with, amy, go to bed.

[A]

Yeah. I should have been reading my book, but, yeah, I got sucked by body doubles.

[B]

Donald Trump has directed the Pentagon and other federal agencies to begin identifying and releasing classified government files related to UFOs and extraterrestrial life. Trump said the decision was driven by tremendous interest in unidentified aerial phenomena. There's been tremendous interest for years. The move comes after Barack Obama recently said the existence of alien life is statistically likely. Officials have not provided a timeline.

[A]

Oh, okay. I mean, cool. Aliens. I'll take it.

[B]

Speaking of timelines, we're in a weird one. Like Amy said, we're in the weirdest.

[A]

I've renamed the doj.

[B]

Yeah. The Department of Distraction.

[A]

D O, W, T, F. Oh, yeah.

[B]

D, O, W, T, F. Amy.

[D]

That's funny.

[A]

I thought of that last night.

[D]

But, like, so back to Obama, if he knew, like, real stuff about aliens, would he just come out and say that?

[B]

So I have a theory that because it was rapid fire at the end, and I don't think you're really going to get a president to agree to an interview, just generally speaking, and not tell them what you're gonna ask. I do think they need to be told or they're not gonna do it.

[D]

It doesn't matter who the president questions in advance. Yeah.

[B]

Yeah. So they probably allowed that in that space because it was just like, yeah, they're aliens. I mean, I haven't seen them. And then they just roll your Obama

[D]

impression is it's like Jerry Seinfeld and Obama.

[A]

What's the deal?

[B]

What's the deal with aliens? Yeah, there was probably some intention behind that. I do think there's a slow rollout by our government officials, too, to let us know that.

[A]

So do you think since they're all in on it, they tap each other like, Obama, you're up. It's your turn.

[B]

Slow roll, possibly.

[A]

And then another president's like. Or another somebody else in government, okay, you're up.

[D]

But when does Bill Clinton step up? It's never his turn.

[B]

Monica never said much about the aliens.

[A]

Love me.

[B]

I don't know. Listen, I literally know nothing. But it's one distraction after the other right now. Eddie, you have one.

[E]

Yes.

[D]

A huge one. So remember I told you guys that my pipe exploded during the ice storm and it was a huge waterfall that turned into a huge icicle. Whatever. So I'm assuming. Man, my water bill is gonna be crazy. Well, I got my water bill last night. It was $70, which is the lowest I've ever gotten in a water bill.

[B]

Is it because it froze? I think it just froze so quickly

[D]

instead of just ran for, like, you know, four days straight. Which is great news.

[B]

I was trying to think of one. It's one of those days where you really have to evaluate the day and go, hmm, what was good about it? Because nothing really bad happened. But I think if I were to put a crown on one instance, it was. I had a late ish evening yesterday recording a Bobby Cast with Morgan Evans. So I was up here until after 6, and my wife had just went ahead and ordered me a burger and fries. And so when I got home, it was just there. She was like, I figured you'd forgotten to have any sort of dinner. She didn't cook anything. She's pregnant. And so I just got home and

[A]

was like, dang, she might still cook you something.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

But I don't. I wouldn't expect that.

[A]

You wouldn't expect that on her. Yes.

[B]

Because she's pregnant.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

There's no expectation of her doing anything she does now is bonus.

[D]

It's fine.

[B]

Yeah, that's what I meant.

[A]

So a burger. A burger. Like local.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Now I just picture you getting burgers

[B]

from, like, I know, Blaze.

[C]

Blaze Burger.

[A]

No, no, from like Gold Belly or whatever.

[D]

Oh.

[B]

Oh, a local burger.

[A]

Local burger.

[B]

Okay, gotcha. She ordered it.

[E]

But it was just.

[B]

I was like, oh, that's very thoughtful. At a time whenever, you know, she's not feeling great.

[A]

Right.

[B]

She remembered that I Still wasn't home. I'd been home all day. I came home for 30 minutes throughout the whole day. And other than that, she had it taken care of. And Night Agent started streaming again last night.

[A]

I was back.

[B]

It's back. New season is up. It's good.

[A]

I like that.

[B]

Yeah, I like season one. It's so corny.

[A]

I need corny.

[B]

Season two's a little less corny. I have a feeling, just through one episode, that season three is a little less corny than season one and season two because I didn't get cringe vibes at all from the first episode. But also, I think I'm in a decent place to know this is a corny show. It's good, but it's corny. So, yeah, that's good, too. Didn't sleep very well last night.

[A]

There's a storm.

[D]

There was a storm last night. Yeah.

[A]

Woke, I think. Or was that my dream?

[B]

Is there a lucky day?

[A]

I woke up multiple times to howling like wind.

[D]

Yeah, I heard wind.

[A]

I heard wind and, like, rain or something.

[B]

I never got a storm. I got dogs barking at the Amazon

[D]

guy, but maybe they were barking at, like, the wind.

[B]

No, no, I literally saw the wind.

[D]

Oh, you saw the Amazon guy. Okay.

[B]

Yeah, I saw the car driving off, and I was like, who's just came. Came through our. And there was a package on the front porch. All right, there you go. That's. Tell me something good. That was. Tell me something good. It's time for the good news with Bobby. Tell me something good. This mailman named Bruce works in Pittsburgh, and it snowed a bunch, and so he's, you know, delivering the mail because they do rain, snow, sleet, or shine. Isn't that their slogan? Something like that. He's out doing it, and he finds a wallet. And so he takes a wallet, puts it in his pocket, finishes route, goes through the wallet, finds the ID and then went and tracked down the owner. Except he learned the family had moved. So he drives 50 miles in his own car.

[C]

Wow.

[B]

After work.

[A]

Wait. What if he found out they moved? Can you just remail it?

[D]

I mean, he works at the post office.

[B]

You know, he probably gets a deal, but I think he just wanted to get it to them right away.

[A]

Nice.

[B]

So I drove 50 miles, returned the cash, credit cards, and I.D.

[A]

yeah.

[B]

What?

[A]

I mean, that's important stuff. Like, I wouldn't want to risk the.

[B]

And they're freaking out, probably canceling everything.

[A]

Right.

[B]

So you can drive it back. Postal officials say Bruce never sought recognition and only wanted to spread joy that's from CBS News. So a big shout out to Bruce Armagh in Pittsburgh, who's delivering mail, found the wallet, and got it back to that family. That's awesome. That's what it's all about.

[C]

That was.

[B]

Tell me something good. It's time for the good news with lunchbox. Tell me something good.

[C]

Anthony Simonetti is one tired dude. He just completed seven marathons, seven continents, and seven days. Wow. Yeah. His sister battled childhood cancer, so he's always been inspired by her. He wanted to raise some money for St. Jude. He's like, what can I do? I'll run seven marathons, seven days, seven continents, and he raised $72,000.

[B]

Man. It'd be cool for 77,000, but still, the logistics of it.

[A]

Yeah. I'm, like, trying to figure out, because

[B]

let's say you do it. You run it in America. You take a quick trip up to Toronto. You say you do in the Northeast.

[D]

That's close.

[B]

Out to Toronto, you can take a car. You don't even need to, like, to have a plane. But then you gotta get in. No, but that's a con. Yeah, I'm doing country.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

We need to go.

[C]

He started in Antarctica.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

And then he finished in Miami. The last one was in America.

[A]

Okay. But we're wondering how he did all Antarctica. With a plane.

[C]

He got on a plane. He flew. I. I don't know these. How he did it, but he did it.

[D]

Guys, stupid question, but if you want to go to Antarctica, where do you fly into?

[B]

Yeah, Antarctica International.

[D]

Like, where is there a place there? There is.

[B]

Yeah. There's a. There's an airport in Antarctica. Wow. Yeah. So did he do them in seven consecutive days?

[C]

Yes, that's what it says.

[A]

In one week, he flew from Antarctica.

[B]

I don't know if he didn't do them in consecutive days. I love it. Still, I would need to research how he did this, because how does he get to Asia, Australia, Europe? Like, it takes 20 hours just to get to Australia by itself from here.

[A]

Right.

[B]

Obviously, you can be in another, and

[A]

then you're having to hop. I mean, planes hydrate you.

[C]

Seven marathons in seven days on seven continents. So that, to me, that there is no word consecutive. But if it's not consecutive, it's not as impressive.

[A]

It's still very impressive.

[B]

I'm just trying to figure out how he makes all those that travel.

[D]

Can you go with the time zone or, like, skip time by going? Like, could you go from here to somewhere else and then skip a day?

[B]

Or you're like, you want to go back a day.

[D]

Okay, back a day. So that could be.

[B]

If you go to Australia from here, you're going forward in time.

[D]

You don't want to do that.

[B]

We're spending way too much time on.

[E]

No, no.

[C]

But here's the crazy part. I don't know what this dude does for a living, because next month, he's going to go climb Mount Kilimanjaro to raise more money for St. Jude.

[D]

Wow, that's great.

[B]

I love the story and the effort. Do you see anything about how he did it, Mike?

[E]

It just says consecutive days.

[B]

It does say consecutive, yeah.

[A]

Then, yeah, he must have done the time zone.

[B]

Half the work is gonna be him just figuring out how to get places. That's tour routing.

[A]

And then hopefully no delays.

[B]

Dang. I didn't even think about that.

[D]

And if you get delayed, don't tell anyone.

[A]

Cause you can't make the right.

[D]

Just do it anyway.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

All right.

[B]

There you go. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good.
