[C]

Come on, it's time for the good news.

[B]

Tell me something good.

[D]

Amen.

[A]

Well, never underestimate getting in the car, rolling the windows down, and taking your kid or even just yourself for a quick little drive to Sonic. Well, last night our debate was either a blizzard from Dairy Queen or a slushie from Sonic. And we opted for slushie from Sonic. And we went and just got little smalls like it was nothing. You know, just a little treat after dinner. And it was so good. And we had such a good time, had the dog in the back, music on, and it was spontaneous. We didn't plan. Just felt like summer. I guess you could do it anytime.

[C]

The outdoor windows down. Sonic does feel like summer, huh?

[A]

Yeah. And for kids, just like, okay, yeah, this is legit. Like, why not? We could have just done our normal nightly routine and stayed home. Cause we were already at home and done with dinner and done with all the things. And then something in me just said, you want to get in the car, go get like either Dairy Queen or Sonic. And then the vote was slushies, Cherry limeade. Slushies from Sonic. And so we just went and did it. And I was like, okay, this is good. I need to do this more. Just a little reminder.

[C]

Not a commercial, by the way.

[A]

No, no. Because it could be Dairy Queen.

[C]

Like, we could. That'd be a double commercial.

[D]

We never done.

[C]

We never do double commercials for two things at once.

[A]

Yeah, yeah. No, it really, it just. Those were the two options that came to my mind of something to do, like, quick that my kids like.

[C]

Speaking of commercials. And just so you know, this is not a commercial. I won't name the brand.

[A]

Sure.

[C]

Eddie and I were in Palm Spring. Where are we last?

[D]

West Palm Beach.

[C]

Palm Beach. We're in Palm beach last night.

[D]

West Palm Beach.

[C]

Okay. What's the difference, dude?

[D]

I don't think it's called Palm Beach. Like, I really think the name of the city is West Palm Beach.

[C]

Where's the east and where's the normal?

[D]

I. I don't know.

[A]

But it's not part of it. Like West Philadelphia Lake.

[D]

There we go.

[C]

Tell me there's no Palm Beach, Florida.

[D]

I don't.

[C]

There's only West. I. You might be right, I might be wrong. I wouldn't fight for it, except I would slightly argue why, and it wouldn't make log. It wouldn't be logical.

[D]

It sounded funny when you just said

[C]

we were in Palm Beach, Florida. Is there a normal Palm Beach? There is. Okay.

[A]

Where?

[B]

Probably east of West Palm Beach.

[D]

Just east of it. That's interesting.

[C]

No, it's not. It'd be interesting if there was only

[A]

a West Palm beach, but Eddie's trying to say specifically, y' all were in west be.

[C]

It doesn't matter. There's no reason for him to correct me. There's no reason. If I'm in North Little Rock and I say I'm in Little Rock and somebody goes, North Little Rock. We're not cool anymore.

[D]

So, like, Key West. Is there a Key East?

[C]

That's a great question. I don't think there is, but I think that's different because that's the second. That's part of the name West Palm Beach. It is pointing to the western city.

[B]

There's Palm beach and then there's West Palm Beach.

[D]

But West Palm beach is the name

[A]

of the city, so it's not just. That's okay, though, because. No, because when you're in West. No, stop. No, I want to work this out.

[C]

All I was saying I was. This has nothing to do with actual west, east, north, south.

[A]

Okay.

[C]

I don't want a compass to tell the story. I literally was just saying we were in Palm beach and we might have played golf in Palm beach and not west, possibly.

[D]

But we were in West Palm Beach. Go ahead.

[A]

Okay. Yeah. What's the story?

[B]

This is stupid.

[A]

Tell us.

[D]

What's your story? Dude, would be crazy. Is that whatever story you're about to tell might be the same story I'm telling it.

[C]

It's not.

[D]

Okay. Is it something you ate?

[C]

No.

[D]

Okay.

[B]

It wasn't even about the town we were in.

[C]

I was just giving it some context.

[A]

Okay, so what, you're not going to.

[B]

I hate y'.

[C]

All.

[D]

Carry on. Carry on. Apologies.

[C]

So we're on Palm beach last night. It's

[D]

tough to hear.

[C]

At this massive client event. I'll talk about it more in part two. And I'm not. Because it's not a commercial. I'm not going to say the brand, but about six months or so ago, I started talking with this brand about possible endorsements or Some sort of influencing or just something. Because I really liked the product, and they wouldn't sign on for a bit, and that's fine. A lot of people don't want to sign on. The guy didn't know who I was. And he said, we like to work with talent. We know. And I'm like, fair enough. He said, I don't. Just don't know anything that you've done. And so for some reason, I came across his radar. What I think I came across as radar, honestly, was on Netflix, because sometimes

[B]

people will just pull that screen up,

[C]

even if they don't listen to the Bobby Cast. And my face will be up there. They don't watch it, but it says, bobby Bones Presents the Bobby Cast. And one of the things that I did when we went on Netflix is we purposefully change the name. It was just a Bobby Cast forever, but I said, it has to be Bobby Bones Presents. Otherwise nobody even knows who the crap that is. And we're trying to get new people to know my name. So I think he sees that. He then reaches back out and goes, oh, yeah, how about that? I'd like to do some. Maybe we should do some business together. It's kind of been nurturing this relationship. He's got a product that I think is great, and the product is. Now, I must say, I have guns, been raised with guns. I'm very comfortable with guns, especially shotguns and rifles, not really pistols. But coming from a rural culture, everybody has guns as tools, and if you need them. As weapons. As weapons, but really very, very, very seldom as weapons. His product is kind of the mc. It's not a gun, but it's a little more than a Taser. And so if you shoot somebody with it, they don't die, but it definitely incapacitates them. And we were talking last night because we spent a little time together at this event, and I was talking about some of the security issues that I've had with even getting attacked at work or in certain places or death threats. And we were just talking about when somebody, like, breaks into your home, it's either nothing or nuclear option, meaning you do nothing and just hope it goes okay and hide, or you have to shoot and kill and there's nothing in the middle.

[D]

Wow. Yeah.

[C]

And so we have this conversation, and what I had said to him was, I think some people are afraid to shoot even if they know that it's a bad guy. Like, there's fear of even pulling the trigger because, well, who knows? If you don't kill him, you may get sued. Also, you just killed somebody. Also, even though they're breaking into your house, there are all of these factors in play whenever someone is threatening you. And so he has this product that I think is the perfect. I don't even want to say weapon, but. But the perfect tool to have in case a situation like that happens. Because he was saying there were instances of, like, somebody's drunk nephew coming in, like, staying, and he didn't know the alarm's off, and somebody thinks somebody's breaking in, and they're going, oh, this person might kill me, or I have to shoot him. Turns out that he's telling me a story. The drunk nephew got shot with. I hate to say shot, because it's not a real gun, but with this tool, weapon. And, yeah, it sucked for him, but he's all right, you know, like, he didn't die. We had this long, long conversation, and I was really appreciative one that he remembered even my name, because when he saw me and thought, oh, I should work with this guy now that I know who it is, then we had this great conversation. I'm just glad there's a product like that that exists. I'm not even saying the product because I don't want this to feel like a commercial, but I think they'll probably come and advertise on the show at some point. Maybe, maybe not. But do you know the product I'm talking about?

[A]

No.

[C]

It's great. So I'm definitely gonna get one. I'm gonna go train on it now. I'm gonna come and shoot all you guys.

[D]

Oh, here we go. Now it's gonna become a bit Spin the wheel.

[C]

But I was just happy I got to meet the guy in person, because forever, he just didn't want to work with me because he didn't know who I was. And he's one of those guys, like, if you cross into my world, I know who you are, then my people do. And I'm going, hey, man, we have a lot of listeners who either are definitely second amendment people, but don't want to have to, like, kill somebody. And so we probably talked for 20 minutes. What was difficult about it was the. He wanted to talk, like, right when all the big speakers were talking. So I'm having to, like, be quiet. We're having to, like, talk, and. And I want to be like, hey, let's pause for a second and let the big speakers talk at this event.

[D]

And.

[C]

But he was just talking.

[D]

I don't want to be rude.

[C]

He was just Talking right through it. And so.

[D]

Yeah, yeah.

[C]

But it was good and I like the product. And so one day if they come on, I'll tell you about the product. But this is not a commercial for Sonic or Dairy Queen or that product. But I, I think you can be in it, even be an anti gun person if you want to be and have this and it be effective in allowing you to feel safer.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

So that was, that's why I told me something good. Got to spend time with the guy that's cool and not convince him.

[A]

But sold, I want to get one.

[C]

You don't know what it is.

[A]

Yeah, we'll find out later.

[C]

Maybe, maybe I don't even know that they're coming on. I know I'm not.

[A]

I even get a free one.

[C]

I know I'm getting a free one.

[D]

I'm saying was that part of the conversation?

[C]

Well, it's like, I'll send you one.

[D]

That's cool. Yeah.

[C]

So that was mine. Had a good, good conversation with that guy.

[A]

He's probably like laughing at my bear spray.

[C]

I didn't bring it up.

[A]

I'm not saying you would bring it up.

[D]

So why do you think, why would

[A]

he be laughing if I were to.

[C]

Why would you laugh at something you didn't know?

[D]

Cuz he doesn't know about your bear spray.

[C]

It's like a joke I've never heard. I'm laughing at a joke I've never heard. That's impossible because I don't, I don't understand the humor of something I've never been exposed to.

[A]

For people in his mind that might be trying to have something that yeah. Isn't a gun probably is like, ah, no, put away that bear spray I got you. Like to those people, like if, if he were to find out about it, not that he knows, I think he'd

[C]

go like, hey, I think that's an option too.

[A]

That's. But this sounds, I think way more.

[C]

I think he invented this or

[D]

I

[C]

don't know, I'm talking too much. But I had a good talk with him. I really like the product and hopefully they come on the show. If they don't, if they even don't come on the show, I'll share it with you at some point. Once they're not on the show. I just never want things to feel like commercials if they're not. Okay.

[D]

Eddie.

[C]

Yes.

[D]

It's weird that you guys are talking about all these brands and I wasn't going to talk about the brand but. And it's not even like it's just weird because it's food. But okay, so let me start back with about, I don't know, three years ago. I was like, I need to take my diet seriously for my, like, gut health. Right? And all the stuff I was reading was like, yogurt, yogurt, yogurt. And I would buy yogurt and I mean, it's so disgusting. It's bitter. And they market it as like, oh, it's delicious. Yogurt with chocolate chips.

[C]

Greek.

[D]

Yeah, but they're not talking about yogurt with chocolate chips. They're talking about just plain yogurt. Greek, Greek yogurt. Okay, so when we were at that golf course, I saw like a little packet of yogurt and it said yogurt with coconut and mango. I'm like, let me give it a shot, guys. It was delicious. It was the first time in my entire life that I put yogurt in my mouth. And I was like, I kind of want more of this.

[B]

Was it Greek yogurt?

[D]

It was Greek yogurt with infused with mango, like juice.

[C]

Cuz Greek definitely has a bitter taste to it. Like straight yogurt. It's like basically ice cream.

[D]

What is straight yogurt? Well, gogurt. Is that.

[A]

No sugar.

[C]

Gourt's even not yogurt.

[B]

Dude, you went to the extreme.

[D]

Because that's pretty good.

[C]

Yeah, like, no, you gotta add sugar. I'm saying like normal. If you're just getting yogurt that's not Greek. It's all sugared up and made to taste good. Like, that is almost a dessert.

[A]

I'll get a plain. Yes, but I'll get a plain yogurt. Whether Greek or not. As long as it's plain, unflavored. And that's what I use as a replacement for sour cream.

[D]

Does it kind of taste the same? Yeah, yeah, it just feels like it's rotten milk.

[C]

Did you take a picture of it?

[A]

Yeah. So what's the brand? Can we just say it?

[D]

Because, like, I don't want to, because.

[C]

No, you can't.

[D]

This is a commercial.

[C]

Trust me, this ain't a commercial.

[D]

Yeah, it's called New Nose.

[A]

Oh yeah. Nuno's is good, guys.

[D]

Yes, it was delicious.

[A]

They had that at the golf course.

[D]

Yeah, I was part of the breakfast.

[C]

You don't even know fancy.

[A]

Oh yeah.

[C]

We're in Palm beach, so.

[D]

West Palm Beach.

[C]

We're in Palm beach, so.

[A]

Okay. Because that's kind of. See, that's like a more elevated yogurt.

[D]

Does that mean that? Because it's more elevated expensive yogurt. Like, that's why it tasted better.

[A]

Also, I think it's just they've. They have really good concoctions, and they have a vibe about them to where I'm not surprised that a more elevated wherever y' all were club would want to carry that because it's not your usual. I mean, they have it at the grocery store, but it's definitely special. I guess even the packaging, like, everything just about it seems cool.

[D]

That's kind of what it was, the packaging. I was like, all right, I've never seen that before. Let me give that a shot.

[A]

I think at one point they reached out about doing endorsements.

[C]

They did.

[A]

I. Well, scoop of Steven, I don't know. He can't. He's not.

[C]

He's not here. They're driving back.

[A]

Did his papa shop? He would know. But I feel like once when I got the email about it, I was like, heck, yeah, I see that stuff at the grocery store.

[D]

It didn't work out.

[A]

I guess not. You never know.

[C]

They didn't know who she was. Trust me. I just got got by that too.

[A]

So who knows?

[B]

Hey, that golf club we were at.

[D]

Oh, gosh, here we go. I was wondering where you were. Googling.

[C]

Less than 30 minutes from Palm Beach International Airport.

[D]

Oh, that's what the airport's not.

[C]

West Palm Beach. Palm Beach International Airport.

[D]

When you look at a map, West Palm beach just sticks out. I mean, it's on the map as west.

[C]

Nothing sticks out to me yet. I just wanted to say Palm beach and you're a jerk. That's what sticks out to me.

[D]

That I'm a jerk?

[C]

Yeah. Okay, well, that's a good, like, recommendation for people.

[D]

And it's just a good start for me because I never ate yogurt. Now I feel like I'm gonna start eating yogurt.

There was a time in my life where home security was something I put off. Like, do I really want someone coming over, drilling into the wall, trying to sell me a bunch of stuff I don't understand? No, thank you. That's why Simply Safe makes sense to me. It's straightforward. You can set it up around your actual house and your actual life, whether that's the front door, the back door, a garage, a camera, whatever makes you feel like you have a better handle on things. And and for me, it's not about walking around scared. It's more like I want to know what's going on at home. Especially with kids, if a door opens, if something seems off, if I'm upstairs or out of town, I like having that extra awareness. SimpliSafe gives you that without making it complicated.

I want you to experience the same peace of mind I do, which is why I've partnered with SimpliSafe to offer an exclusive, exclusive discount to my listeners.

While the world watches the stars at the FIFA World cup this summer, Hyundai has its eyes on the next generation of talent. The future stars who are already turning heads at age 14. Making plays that end up on everybody's feet. Scoring from angles that don't make sense. Rewriting record books that barely had time to gather dust because Next does not wait for an invitation. And Hyundai doesn't either. Hyundai has always moved the future within reach. Hyundai did it by making advanced safety standard on every vehicle. Hyundai did it by engineering EVs with ultra fast charging capability. And Hyundai continues doing it every day. From robotics that change how people live to young athletes changing the game. The future isn't some far off concept. It's already here. Next starts now. Hyundai, an official partner of FIFA.

[A]

They have all the probiotics in there and stuff. All the. I don't know how to say that.

[C]

It's funny. He went to go Gurt because that's

[D]

what my kids eat.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

And I see it in the fridge and I'm like, let me try that. And I taste. That's pretty good. But wife saw. I was like, that's not yogurt.

[A]

Don't eat that. What's interesting is the airport is just west of the city of West Palm Beach. It says Palm Beach International Airport is just west of the city of West Palm Beach. So West Palm beach is its own city.

[D]

It is.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

So is North Little Rock.

[D]

And we were in West Palm beach.

[C]

But it doesn't matter.

[A]

North Little Rock is a. Is a city.

[C]

It's its own city.

[A]

It's called North Little. Like when they're riding on their.

[B]

There is a mayor of North Little Rock.

[A]

They. Their address is North Little. Yes.

[D]

Okay, look at this. I have a map of Florida right here. And you got big cities like Orlando. And I'm not arguing.

[C]

And there's not Palm Beach. No one's arguing. That's a fictional place. My only thing was there was no reason to correct me. And then I said, oh. And your argument was there's no such thing as Palm Beach. And I said, I'm not gonna argue, because I don't know.

[A]

But Eddie was wrong.

[D]

That's where I messed up. I shouldn't have said that.

[A]

You should stop while you're ahead.

[D]

I should have.

[A]

So we all were at a nice golf place.

[C]

I just looked up what the entry fee is to get into that club.

[D]

So this is to be a member

[A]

of the club, do you have to get invited?

[C]

You have to not be rejected so you can apply. And I'm just talking generally speaking about golf clubs. So it's not some maybe invite. Only I doubt this one is, like, in Augusta, you can only be invited, but that is the most prestigious in the world. The club that we were playing at just for the initiation fee. $475,000.

[D]

What the. This is the initiation fee.

[A]

Wow.

[C]

If that's. If you live as a local resident. But so many people have, like, second houses there.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

And they are considered national members. $650,000.

[D]

Oh, my God.

[C]

As the initiation fee, if you decide

[A]

you don't want to be at the club anymore, can you sell your initiation?

[C]

Depending on the club, yes. It's not an initiation fee.

[B]

It's your membership.

[C]

You can sell your membership.

[A]

That's. Yeah.

[D]

How do you know about that? No, Amy, I've never heard of that. That you can sell your initiation.

[A]

I don't know that I knew. I was just asking.

[B]

Wow.

[A]

Because it makes.

[C]

Are you buying something? Like, actual.

[A]

You're. You. You. Yeah. Is it just 650 that just goes away if you leave the club, or do you have a way to get that back because you're your.

[D]

Like a deposit?

[A]

Because it's the initiation fee. It's not your.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

It's not even your yearly dues.

[C]

What are those monthly?

[A]

Well, monthly.

[E]

Yearly.

[C]

Even if you have a club, for the most part, where you can sell it back, you don't sell it back for full price. And you have to also get to a certain point of membership to even be able to sell it back at all.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Like, I was a member of a club when I moved here first. Moved to Nashville because I lived on the golf course. And I was like, screw this. I moved. I was just out the money because I didn't stay a member long enough to own it, to sell it back. Now, it's nothing like this. This amount of money, but that's a good question.

[A]

Yeah. Pass it down to your kids, maybe.

[C]

Well, yeah, your kids will be a part of the membership, and then they keep it if you die. But they got to keep Paying the monthly dues. Because the monthly dues are always at the thing.

[A]

That's what's crazy about the whatever club my sisters in laws are a part of that they. They're their kids are members and their grandkids. Oh, really locked in.

[C]

Like that's interesting.

[A]

Yeah. Like you get to. So my nephew. So much so he just decided as well play golf. He just moved to Austin because he's like, I think this is where I'm meant to be. Because now he gets to go call her every day. He's like at. At what, 21 years old. Now he has this membership to this club that he could never afford.

[D]

But does he have to pay monthly?

[A]

No, no. It's. You're part of the thing. It's that discovery thing.

[C]

His is part of. Does somebody own property? Yeah. So if you own property on certain clubs, you're a member of every one of theirs, but you have to own property and you can't just.

[A]

Yeah, they're building a house there.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

And then because we have one here too, you see a lot of artists that, that play. You know, the club that is here.

[A]

Yeah. It's a troubadour.

[C]

Yeah, Troubadour. If you see that it's in their member, it's because they own property on it and it's very expensive property and they're building a house or you can't even just buy a lot to do it. I'm not a member of Troubadour, so I'm not speaking from knowledge of that, but I have a lot of friend. Friend dishes that are. And I play it a decent amount because they're like come out. And they don't even have rules on those. They're so nice.

[B]

There are no golf rules.

[C]

You want to wiener out while you play, go for it. Like it's crazy.

[A]

Not so much that, but snack at every hole.

[C]

They have full houses with food. It is wild.

[B]

You don't have to wear shoes.

[C]

You can wear T shirts. It's wild.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

Okay. Eddie, thanks for your talk about Palm Beach.

[D]

Yeah, thank you. West Palm Beach.

[C]

Once we were there and the yogurt brand is called so good. All right, Lunchbox.

[F]

Yeah. Tonight at 8 o' clock central. If you love the United States of America, this great country that we live in, you will be in front of your TV with friends, family, neighbors, watch parties across America as the United States men's soccer team takes the field for the World cup game. That starts it all as we play Paraguay as we march to the title and. And Host Hoist the World Cup. Tonight. It starts. Whoa.

[A]

Starts tonight.

[C]

I was. We were only a. Barely a favorite.

[D]

Why? Those South American teams are good.

[C]

No, but they put us in a really weak group.

[D]

But isn't Paraguay. They're good.

[C]

Stop it, Eddie. Stop it.

[A]

Eddie, Stop.

[D]

I don't know much about soccer, but I. I assume that Paraguay is pretty good.

[E]

Stop.

[C]

Is that really how it's said? If you say it with an accent?

[D]

Yeah, of course. Paraguay. Lunchbox. Is Paraguay good?

[F]

I wouldn't say they're good, but, I mean, hey, they're good enough to hang with us.

[A]

What about Haiti? They play Scotland.

[F]

They're gonna beat by, like, 500.

[A]

Shoot. My kids are gonna be with their dad, but he's planning a watch party, and they're gonna do, like, a whole Haitian thing. So the first time Haiti's been in the World cup in, like, a really long time. And our kids are. They.

[D]

That's cool.

[A]

They've never paid attention to soccer, but they're like, my daughter literally texting her this week, Haiti made it to the World Cup. I'm like, cool. So then she talked to her dad, and so now they're going to do this watch party, and they're playing Scotland. Like, lunchbox. There's no way they could win.

[F]

Oh, they could. I mean, I'm just saying Haiti is so. I mean, it's crazy. They're in the World Cup.

[C]

It's crazy. They're in the World Cup. Crazy. Like, America sometimes doesn't make the World Cup.

[A]

I know. Well, that's why this is a big deal for them.

[C]

Oh, no.

[A]

Yeah. So they're. They're excited.

[C]

As I saw my watch.

[B]

Mexico game.

[C]

Yeah. They won.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

2 0, right? Yeah.

[A]

Don't you mean Mexico?

[C]

I don't, but if you were to ask him that question.

[D]

Yes. Yeah. I, too, watch the Mexico game.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

South Africa. What's funny is the teams that have to go down and play in Miami that come from, like, cold or temperate climates that are just not going to be used to the heat. Like, if you're a team, you're like Brazil. You're one of the South American teams. All cool.

[D]

Yes.

[C]

But even a Scotland having to play in.

[A]

Oh, yeah. That would be hard.

[C]

Crazy. Yeah. Not a big soccer guy.

[D]

So that means. I mean, that's. But I was favorable to Haiti.

[A]

Yeah. Because they're.

[B]

I don't know if they're playing in Miami.

[C]

I was just saying there's a chance because I was looking at the bracket lunchbox. You know, where they're Playing?

[F]

No, I don't know where they're playing.

[C]

Some of the cool spots. Like, they're playing in Kansas City. That'd be a fun place to go watch because it's a big soccer town.

[D]

It's pretty crazy.

[C]

Seattle.

[D]

Yeah. Like, if they play in America, they got some really cool stadiums. But then they play like. Like last night, late last night, I think Korea was playing and they played in, like, Guadalajara.

[C]

Yeah.

[F]

Yeah. Scotland.

[A]

It was starting tonight.

[C]

Yesterday was the first day.

[F]

Yeah. Scotland and Haiti are playing in Boston. They're in Massachusetts because I did. I saw all the people getting off the plane, and they were complaining that their plane ran out of beer. From Scotland to Boston.

[A]

Oh, a lot of Haitians in Boston.

[B]

It's just weird.

[C]

Where some of them are hubbed, meaning they're where they're staying, like, basically living. Because the. Maybe this. The team from Spain is staying in Chattanooga.

[F]

Yeah. Japan's here.

[D]

They're here in Nashville.

[C]

They're everywhere. Like, Austin has like, maybe South Korea or all.

[B]

Regardless, all these cities.

[D]

And then who's in New Spain?

[B]

I think it's Spain.

[F]

Yeah, Spain is.

[D]

That's pretty funny.

[A]

Interesting.

[C]

Messy place for Argentina. Argentina.

[B]

I saw them playing in College Station,

[C]

but they're not staying in College Station. They were playing in the football stadium, like a friendly.

[A]

Oh, cool.

[C]

It's just weird to see all the videos. And it's fun because they're experiencing American culture, where they're going, can you believe

[B]

they had this thing called nerds?

[C]

And the box is this big? Or look at it, this huge Slurpee.

[B]

Like, just all the excess that we have.

[C]

What do you see? They're in Kansas City, Argentina. Think about that. Like one of the most famous people in the world. Messi.

[D]

But I mean, he lives in Miami.

[C]

Yeah, but he's in Kansas City right now. I don't think he live. Lives there. He does stay there.

[D]

He stays there in the season.

[B]

Where is Lunchbox?

[C]

What? Ronaldo.

[B]

Is he.

[C]

What?

[D]

That's Portugal.

[C]

Portugal.

[F]

Where are they playing? Portugal.

[B]

Where are they staying?

[A]

Portugal.

[C]

I don't even care where they're playing, but where they living. But they go at all. This is going to blow your mind. They're in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. No way. Palm Beach Gardens, Gardens.

[B]

That's a town.

[A]

Different. When I was looking at the airport, Palm Beach Gardens is a separate place. Interesting that service is the same airport.

[D]

Right now, Ronaldo's having the same. Are we in Palm beach or West Palm Beach?

[A]

No, you're in Palm Beach. Gardens, Garden.

[C]

That's fun. Yeah. Look, Lunchbox knows a lot more about soccer than I do. I've had. I've had a couple soccer players on certain shows that we've done. Even a guy that played on the last World cup team. So, like, I'm very, very, like, entry level when it comes to soccer. But I care until we're out.

[D]

Well, then you won't watch it all.

[C]

Don't give a crap. Yeah, no craps. So Lunchbox.

[B]

But you'll like it.

[C]

Even if it's, by the way. And Argentina, Right?

[F]

Yeah. Like last night, I stayed up and watched, you know, the South Korea versus Chechia. I mean, I don't care about any of those teams, but I watched it.

[D]

That wasn't Czechoslovakia.

[F]

No, it was Czechia, man. Or Czech Republic. When they spelled it on the screen, it was C, Z, E, C, H, I, A. And I was like, I guess that's Chia.

[D]

Right? Like, when Mexico was playing, I thought they were playing Russia because it was rsa. That's how it's spelled.

[C]

But it's Czech Republic.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

Okay.

[F]

Yeah. Which is. I don't understand the. Why they don't just put Czech Republic.

[D]

I agree. I thought Mexico was playing Russia because it was rsa.

[A]

Who. So who are they playing?

[C]

South.

[D]

South Africa.

[F]

The Republic of South Africa.

[A]

Oh, spot it.

[D]

Just write it out.

[C]

They don't have to fit to your standards.

[D]

Well, as everyone's. Everyone. But everyone thought they were playing Russia. Rsa. What do you think? Immediately?

[C]

Raisins. Although there's no A in raisins. There is at the beginning. I'd just be written in wrong order. Yeah. Bria. Russia. I guess.

[B]

Would there be a sickle?

[D]

There was no.

[C]

That's ussr.

[D]

Uss.

[C]

All right, there you go. That. Tell me something good. That's what it's all about. It's time for the good news with Bobby.

[B]

Tell me something good.

[C]

In 2018, this guy Fergus suffered a spinal injury. Workplace accident. 5% chance of regaining some movement. Not even, like, walking. Like, 5% chance that you have any movement at all. He had an emergency surgery. He was paralyzed from the rib cage down, unable to feel his legs. He says the surgeon told him if the movement did not return in 72 hours, his chances would drop to zero. So that was a pretty intense 72 hours. Lots of visualizing just his toe. He said it was just focused on his toe. Toe, toe, toe. 21 days later, not in the 72 hours. 21 days later, his big toe started to move. Wow. He then went to a rehab hospital where he continued and he Just worked on his other toes and his feet and they started moving from his feet, his ankles, and we could play the game where I go all the way up. No need. He now is setting a challenge for himself. He wants to walk all the way across the United States.

[B]

Wow.

[C]

He has completed several endurance events. He's rode seven marathons in seven days. I don't know about rowing a marathon, what that means. I don't wonder if it's. It doesn't matter. It's still going to be a lot. I don't know if that's 26.2 miles rowing. But he is now going to start a 3,000 mile walk across the United States. It should take 75 days, starting at the Brooklyn Bridge and finishing in Santa Monica. Then the journey will support spinal injury organizations including the RE Foundation. That's from People. That's a crazy story where it's, you have 72 hours and if nothing, nothing. 21 days later, his toe moved.

[D]

Let's go.

[C]

And now he's walking across the country. That is a great story. That is what it's all about.

[B]

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

[A]

Okay. So this woman was at John Way Airport in California and she saw an airport worker struggling to walk on the tarmac. So she decided to video him. He's an older gentleman, a Navy veteran, and his knees aren't working as well. His body's aching again. He's. He's older. She puts up this video on Tick tock. It gets 6 million views. Think people start pouring in, like, how can we help this guy? So she sets up a GoFundMe and $160,000 has been raised. Turns out he's also caring for his nine year old mother who's in hospice care. So they have bills and he is so grateful for the help. It's just kind of crazy. That one video of him struggling to walk across the tarmac. People wanted to rally together and support him.

[C]

I love the story. I love the ending. It's just weird to people video people.

[D]

I know.

[A]

I kind of thought because it's like,

[B]

hey, the she videos this old guy

[A]

that can't walk, he's working.

[C]

No, I know.

[D]

Was the intention like, hey, look at that?

[A]

No, I think it was more like, wow, this guy is clearly struggling, but he's still out here getting his job done.

[D]

Okay.

[A]

And I think people sympathized with that and just were like, wow, hopefully there's

[C]

a call to action on the video. Right. When you do that and you're not just looking, because if there's not, it's just a weird world.

[D]

And then, like, the algorithm. Like, how does the algorithm catch a video like that?

[C]

So there really is no right answer on that, because they hide what makes an algorithm do its work. Generally speaking, though, it's engagement or sharing. So it's not so much that an algorithm is looking for an old man walking. Let's find one of those today.

[D]

Right.

[C]

It's people commenting on it, people sharing it, people liking it. It's those factors all different at different times.

[D]

So maybe it's. It's got a slow start, and then it starts building momentum. Then the algorithm just takes it.

[A]

And then I guess I'm wondering. I don't have all of the details, but she's a passenger at the airport. He's working. She's filming him. Like, did she know or find out somehow? Like, oh, he served in the military.

[C]

And now, like, why are you shooting this video?

[B]

I'm glad.

[C]

Here. It just feels like there's some other videos being shot that I don't agree with. Yeah, they don't come across the news here.

[A]

Yeah. But obviously this one is.

[C]

Hopefully you shoot it and you go talk to them and you go, yes. Do you care if I post this? Hey, what's your story?

[A]

Or did she find out. Yeah. Before. Or like, maybe one of his coworkers.

[D]

You're on the airplane. How do you know what they're doing down there?

[A]

I. It doesn't say if she was filming from the plane or from the window inside the airport.

[C]

It just says, I'm glad this story worked out.

[D]

A lot of questions.

[C]

A lot of questions, though. Yes. All right. There you go. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good.
