Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Bobby’s Big Parenting Mistake and Lesson Learned

• [02:28] Bobby kicks off "Tell Me Something Good" describing a recent successful family dinner outing—contrasting it with a previous mistake when he woke his baby too early, disrupting the night.
• He credits his wife’s input for the improvement, humorously downplaying his own learning:

  “I don't think I would have learned from just my mistake. I really needed to be beaten down about it.” (Bobby, 03:04)

Memorable Quote:

• “Guys, you act like I go to the bathroom and I just pee out money and then I Drink more water and then I pee out more money.” (Bobby, 06:56)

---

2. Should Bobby Accept a Free Car Detail for Social Media?

• [03:53] Bobby tells a story of being approached at a restaurant by young entrepreneurs offering to detail his car for free in exchange for social media content.
• Amy and Eddie debate the value: is it about the freebie for Bobby, or supporting hustling youngsters?
• The group discusses personal wealth, with Amy jokingly illustrating compound interest and Bobby sharing how real estate, not gambling, built his wealth.

Notable Exchange:

• Amy: “I guess I know some of your money. You show me your 401k.” (07:08)
• Bobby: “So you know where I’ve made so much money?...not flipping houses, but buying houses. And then going, I don't want to live here anymore, I'm going to move.” (08:07)

---

3. Financial Wisdom and Debt

• [10:49] Bobby brings up an interview with "Ms. Dow Jones," a financial influencer, about smart ways to manage debt:
  • Her advice: If your debt (like a mortgage or student loan) is at a low interest rate, pay the minimum and invest the rest in something stable like the S&P 500 for long-term growth.
  • Bobby clarifies:

    “If you buy a house and you have 4% interest on the mortgage, but you take the money that you were going to spend buying the entire house...and make 8 to 10% on the S&P 500...you're actually making money.” (Bobby, 11:00)

Fun Side Note:

• The team briefly fantasizes about owning a laundromat together as a “boring but safe” investment. Bobby insists he’d only partner with Amy on such ventures—excluding Lunchbox (“I’m not getting involved in anything financially with Lunchbox”, 13:04).

Notable Quote:

• “When the Internet started, it was like the Internet’s taking everybody's job...but eventually you have to find a way to put regulations around it, understand where the most growth is happening.” (Bobby, 16:25)

---

5. Listener Stories & The Show’s Impact

[Bobby Bones]

It's time for the good news. Tell me something good. I go first. We went to dinner last night, took the baby. No drama. Cause last time I made the drama. Last time I made us leave early. It wasn't early for us, but the baby was still sleeping and my wife's like let's not transfer her over. She's gonna just wake up when we put her in the car seat. And she did. And it made the night difficult. Last night. Everything came off without a hitch. It was pretty good.

[Amy]

That's good of you to admit you learned from your mistake. Yeah. You're just learning so much.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I don't think I would have learned from just my mistake. I really needed to be beaten down about it.

[Amy]

Either way, you learned. Yeah, I'll take it.

[Bobby Bones]

So it wasn't so mistake based as much as it was. My wife just like, hey, we gotta do better. So that's mine. I think it's the only thing that we did yesterday.

[Eddie]

Did you stay at the restaurant later last night?

[Bobby Bones]

It was just a slightly longer meal.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

So it made a little sense. Yeah. In the schedule.

[Amy]

We know, like, you don't love long meals.

[Eddie]

No, he does not.

[Bobby Bones]

Just take a little longer for the food to get there.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Just a little longer in general place, so. And I think her nap was scheduled a little better. But yeah, it wasn't that we stayed an extra long time. It just was a little longer meal. And I think her schedule worked anyway.

[Eddie]

It worked.

[Bobby Bones]

Guys, shut up. Yeah, no, shut up.

[Amy]

We're celebrating with you.

[Eddie]

Yeah, man. It's a win.

[Bobby Bones]

Let me ask you a question. I was leaving the restaurant and two dudes approach my car. So I'm in the driver's seat, my wife's in the passenger seat. And they're friendly. They're younger guys. They look to be like 22 to 25 or 26. And he's like, hey, man. Still in the parking lot. They do not look threatening at all. This is not that kind of story. I roll the window down, I'm like, hey, what's up, man? And he says, hey, you have an awesome car. I said, thanks, appreciate that. He said, we're a detailing company. And I think, oh, they just are out hustling trying to get people to use their detailing service. Get it, hustle away. I say, yeah. I said, well, I have a company that I use about once a month or so, they come over and they clean the car.

[Amy]

And he goes, waller. I see it sometimes, and I'm like, can I just leave my car in the driveway too?

[Bobby Bones]

I say, well, we have somebody. He goes, no, we're not trying to sell you anything. We don't want you to pay us. But your car is so awesome. We will do it for free if we can put it on social media. Just for one cleaning. Like, we clean these kind of cars. And I Said, well, where that's weird to me is I don't want my license plate on that. It's no, we, we covered up with a blackout and they said we do like a $300 service, but all we want to do is like show the outside of your car like a high end car. And our service does high end cars. What are your thoughts?

[Amy]

Are they going to. Dude, they're going to come to your house.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

Well, it could be anywhere.

[Amy]

Here's my first thought.

[Bobby Bones]

They go to houses, but it could be anywhere. I could take it and drop it off at the church parking lot down the road.

[Amy]

Right. But it's for their social media.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Amy]

And they would give you the cleaning for free.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Amy]

If here's my thing, you, you don't. Not to be weird but like, you don't need that. So you'd be doing them like a huge favor like that you're putting your car like is it a continued thing or it's a one time thing? Because like for you, is it worth like taking your car somewhere for a one time clean? Because I don't think you're gonna continue

[Bobby Bones]

and it wouldn't be a continued thing because I don't think they want to wash the same car on their Instagram every week.

[Amy]

So I think if it's something where you want to help these young entrepreneurs out, then you go for it because that's what you are about. But like you don't. You're not doing it because you need the free cleaning, but you would.

[Bobby Bones]

Something else. I didn't add to the story.

[Amy]

Oh, okay.

[Bobby Bones]

He said, are you an Arkansas fan? Cuz I had an Arkansas shirt. I said, yeah. He said, man, we suck at everything except track and baseball, huh? And I said, and softball. He goes, oh yeah, we.

[Amy]

So now it's a Arkansas entrepreneur.

[Bobby Bones]

His dad went to school at Arkansas. He didn't. He didn't.

[Amy]

Well then you should probably do it. It's one of your people.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, we're not all related.

[Amy]

You should help your people. I mean, because that's the thing. You don't, you don't need to do it, but you would be doing it to help them.

[Eddie]

Eddie, what would you do that's so interesting. Amy's angle, because immediately I'm like, why are we talking so much about this like it's free. Ye. Ah, let's do it. But you're right, I'm talking about you. You don't need it.

[Bobby Bones]

Like guys, you act like I go to the bathroom and I just pee out money and then I Drink more water and then I pee out more money.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Amy]

But like, yeah.

[Eddie]

Accurate.

[Amy]

Well, because I don't know the way I picture it. And I don't know. I don't know your. All your money. I don't know any of your money. But I think. I guess I know some of your money. You show me your 401k. But I think that what I know about money and how it compounds over time is your money is just making money and you're still making money to add to the money that's making money. So. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang.

[Eddie]

Making money on the making money.

[Amy]

Yeah. Like, you're still making money, but the money that you've made in the past is making money.

[Eddie]

I love how Amy's talking to you about your money.

[Bobby Bones]

She's not wrong, though.

[Amy]

No. But this is how I think about his money. So I'm like. It's not like Eddie and I are. We're in a position. We're still making money, but we need to make our money to live. Like, he could live off his money. That's making money.

[Eddie]

I know. Which is crazy. He can retire.

[Amy]

He's been wise and successful and made. Not only has he had opportunity to make the money, but then with the money he's made, he's in wise, so it makes sense.

[Bobby Bones]

So you know where I've made so much money?

[Eddie]

Go for it.

[Amy]

There is something you've said before that

[Bobby Bones]

you're, like, not talking about that.

[Amy]

Oh. But yet.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, it's legal. It's completely legal.

[Eddie]

Because it's not DraftKings.

[Bobby Bones]

Because I've talked about it before. No.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm probably a little bit down overall in DraftKings. That's entertainment.

[Eddie]

Of course it is.

[Bobby Bones]

Is not flipping houses, but buying houses.

[Amy]

Your real estate choice.

[Bobby Bones]

And then.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Then going, I don't want to live here anymore. I'm going to move.

[Eddie]

Which was weird at the time because you kept moving and we're just like, gosh, like every two years it keeps moving. But, yeah, business wise, that was great.

[Amy]

You were in a market where. Where you bought happened to be.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Amy]

All that was such a.

[Eddie]

You were almost ahead of everything.

[Amy]

Right, right.

[Bobby Bones]

But not on purpose. I was still living in childhood trauma of moving every two years because we were forced to move every two years so I would get to some place and I wouldn't have debt. I never had debt my whole life. Even my first house, a very small house. Like, I wouldn't buy it until I could pay for the whole thing. And so I've kept that Cycle up, and I would go. Something feels uncomfortable about living here. Well, the first house I bought, that dude was running around. He killed people in the neighborhood and was running around with a gun. And then it was too far from the airport. I was flying all the time, and I was like, I can't live here anymore. But I paid cash for it and sold that house. Made money, bought a place downtown. It flooded. It completely flooded. Had to move to another place. Once that place was built back, it was even better.

[Eddie]

Screw it.

[Bobby Bones]

Sold that. The house I was living in temporarily sold that. Bought it. So I've just. And I've rented those places, too. Like, that's been. That's been pretty good for me, I'll be honest with you.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. And then obviously, this job.

[Eddie]

So back to the car. Yeah.

[Amy]

So real estate car.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I think. I think Amy's right. Like, if you want to do these guys a solid, let it rip. And they're family to Arkansas.

[Bobby Bones]

They're not family the other.

[Eddie]

But you have a connection to them.

[Bobby Bones]

Unless he just knows about Arkansas dude.

[Eddie]

He was like, yeah, I went to Texas. University of Texas. Can I do your car?

[Bobby Bones]

You'd be like, nah, I'd have pulled a hose out on him. Get off my lawn. Would you do it? Just. Just generally speaking, remove the Arkansas part.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You would take. And let them put your car on social media.

[Amy]

Not saying, it's my car, but.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it has to be your car.

[Amy]

They have to say it's my car. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

They won't say it to me.

[Amy]

Yes, Yes. A detailing like that. Yeah. Yeah.

[Eddie]

300 worth. Yeah, absolutely.

[Amy]

And then I can. Yeah, then I can invest that 300 in something else that's gonna.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm choking on the water. I just had a big drink.

[Eddie]

Oh, so you were laughing while you were drinking?

[Bobby Bones]

I think so. Amy got me. Yeah, I was talking to. And there'll be an episode of the Bobby Cast coming out soon. Her nickname is Ms. Dow Jones. Are you familiar with her?

[Amy]

No, but do I need. Like, it sounds like I need to be.

[Bobby Bones]

She has a massive social following. She just put out a book that was a New York Times bestseller. And I did a talk with her, and she was talking, and we were talking about debt and how not all debt is unhealthy and how a lot of celebrities will have a mortgage. And she explained why. She says if you buy a house and you have 4% interest on the mortgage, but you take the money that you were going to spend buying the entire house. Right. And just pay the mortgage, but the Rest of that money you put in, like S&P 500 anything, it makes 8 to 10%. So you're paying 4% interest, but you're making 8 to 10% interest. So you're making 5% interest more than you would have had. You just paid it off. And that really rich people are doing that now. I thought it's super interesting. She was like, if you have a student loan and you're paying back 3% interest on it, pay the exact minimum on that student loan. But you have to invest. You have to invest the rest of that money that you were going to pay into that loan and make the 8 to 10% on a very steady, like S&P 500, which is like the top 500 companies at once.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And if you're making 8 to 10 on that, while you're paying 3% on that, you're actually making money. But you just have to make sure to pay that full amount into the investment that you would have paid on. The student loan is really interesting.

[Eddie]

So smart.

[Amy]

Yeah. I'm on her page now.

[Bobby Bones]

She has, like, 1.3 million followers.

[Amy]

She's. Oh, I didn't know expense maxing was a thing.

[Eddie]

Everything's maxing, like, and the S, P500, it sounds great. But at some point, like, that's gonna go down too, right? Like at some point.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Okay. So that would be. How would I explain that? Sure. Everything cannot go up. But that is such a massive group of stocks. It's the biggest 500. If you buy one, could be really volatile. If you buy a really safe one like Apple, there's a reason why it's so expensive, and there's a reason why you're not going to make a bunch of money quickly. Because it moves very slow, but rarely does it go down. This is the top 500 companies, and

[Eddie]

they're all together as one.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So if a couple bomb out, that's all right. You got a couple that are killing it.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah. So levels out a little bit.

[Bobby Bones]

Generally speaking, over the past X amount of years, it has averaged a growth rate of, I believe, almost 8 to 10%. So is it a boring stock? Yes. Is it a stock, though, that rarely loses money? Yes. But, yeah, anytime you invest in anything, it could happen. But that's really one of the safest things you could put your money into.

[Amy]

I sent Eddie a boring business thing the other day back to the Laundromats. I sent him a whole video.

[Eddie]

Yeah, Laundromats.

[Bobby Bones]

There's just a lot of work because it's A lot of work.

[Eddie]

The guy in the video says, no work.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. You know how to get people to watch your videos? By saying it's no work. And look, how fun and flashy.

[Amy]

But he said. He said that every family. Every family should own one. And then they collectively split the.

[Bobby Bones]

Who has that kind of money?

[Amy]

Well, listen, then Eddie and I were like, well, the show. We're a family.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not getting involved in anything financially with Lunchbox.

[Eddie]

No, no, no. Maybe Lunchbox is out.

[Bobby Bones]

Lunchbox, are you out?

[Lunchbox]

Wait, no, I'm in. I'm always in.

[Amy]

Oh, wait, why am I. Why do I care if he's in? He still hasn't paid me back my investment money. I forget.

[Bobby Bones]

I would get Amy if you were like, I found something. Do you want to do it as me and you? And it was something super safe, and I didn't have to, like, look at it and do it. And we hired somebody to manage it. I would do that. Otherwise, I'm not doing something as a show.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Eddie]

He's been pretty clear about that.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

What if Eddie.

[Amy]

Those videos are convincing, though.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah. I'm just gonna use you as an example. Okay.

[Geico Gecko]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

And this is not gonna happen. Yeah. What if Eddie goes out and gets a dwi?

[Eddie]

Whoa.

[Bobby Bones]

Or something like that? He wouldn't let me use it as an example. It could be anybody. It gets a DWI or just the show's like, you got to cut somebody. We have to cut Eddie because we have AI doing all video editing now. And so now Eddie's part of the. The. Our group. That's show. But he's not working for the show anymore. He either got in trouble or that he's been. It's that you don't do that with people.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

You just work.

[Amy]

So we have it contractually. Like, if you're somehow out of the family, then you're out.

[Bobby Bones]

That's not. No one's gonna sign that contract.

[Eddie]

I'm gonna turn into the big lonely

[Bobby Bones]

dude just like that.

[Amy]

What? That is weird. You use that as could AI take Eddie's job.

[Bobby Bones]

AI already is doing that with a lot of folks. I'd be hard. Harder to take Amy.

[Eddie]

Oh, guaranteed human.

[Amy]

Yeah. Except for. Did the video say guaranteed human?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, the videos aren't talking, though.

[Amy]

I know, but I mean, guaranteed. This video was made by Human.

[Bobby Bones]

We use programs that have AI that locate stuff in videos.

[Eddie]

I don't drink and drive, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Dude, I was only using you as an example because you're right in front of me.

[Amy]

Both examples for Eddie, though, are Pretty detrimental.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Like, I'm the video guy. I do like to drink.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I picked a video because it's what you do.

[Amy]

Yeah, no, that is. You see all the people that are talking about AI in the commencement speeches,

[Bobby Bones]

and they get booed.

[Amy]

Students are just booing them. It's, like, awkward.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you know Gary Vee is. Do you ever see us?

[Amy]

Yes. Yeah. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So I interviewed him.

[Amy]

You did?

[Bobby Bones]

We talked about AI for, like, half an hour. I don't. I don't think that interview is for

[Amy]

everyone, but whenever his stuff pops up for me, let me see if I follow him or if his stuff just pops up on my For. But I always find it interesting.

[Bobby Bones]

It wasn't over my head, AI. Although I do feel like I'm a bit more educated than the layman because I use a lot, especially for research purposes sometimes. Obviously, I can do, like, video creation and put our faces on the cast of the Brady Bunch. You know that.

[Eddie]

That's always fun.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but how he was talking, it's not. It's like anything else. When the Internet started, it was like, the Internet's taking everybody's job. Internet's bad. Like, at all you can. Everybody's stealing and kids are talking to adults and people are getting arrested. Like, the Internet's bad, but eventually you have to find a way to put regulations around it, understand where the most growth is happening. Like, this will be a bigger revolution than the Internet was, but that was the biggest at the time. But that. He definitely does not see it as something that is going to ruin everybody's lives if they learn it. Like people had to learn the Internet. The Internet replaced a lot of folks and a lot of jobs, but so did the Henry Ford. The freaking car? No, the. The assembly line.

[Eddie]

Assembly line, yeah.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, there are these things that happen that are revolutionary in jobs, in production, within jobs and within job production that completely changes the scope of how we hire fire, who. What those jobs are. And it's happened in our life really once with the Internet, but it's going to happen again with AI. And AI is not just deep fakes of Tom Cruise doing the Macarena on

[Eddie]

Mars and all the animals jumping the

[Bobby Bones]

trampoline or the scams that we talk about. And what the thing that I had said to him was with AI, I think why a lot of people are scared of it for the most part, is the things that we're reading most about it. Is it taking people's jobs and people using AI to clone voices to scam people? Do you know why we hear about that the most. Because those are the most sensational things. Those are the most. Those are things going to get the most traction on social media.

[Amy]

What about also the data places like the environmental impact?

[Bobby Bones]

So that's just Because. Yeah, and so that's a whole different element of it, because that is an environmental impact, and they've got to figure out how and where to put those centers, if they're putting them. But what he brought up was what AI is going to do is completely change medicine, and it already has. Completely change the way that we understand what medicine does, how it works. A human doctor only has so much capacity to understand so many things, and then they will even send you to someone else. They only have so much capacity. But what AI is able to learn to evaluate and the advice that it gives is so much more robust than what any thousand humans can do that are trained in that specific area.

[Eddie]

I like that.

[Bobby Bones]

And so that doesn't make our algorithms, though, because it's not fancy, fun, crazy, death, because that's what make our. Makes our algorithms. But we had a whole talk about that. I enjoyed it. I don't know if it's for everybody, but it'll be out sometime soon. So anyway. Would you let him wash my car?

[Eddie]

Yes. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. I would do anything for free.

[Amy]

Yeah, anything.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, they had me at free. I don't care. Free. Let's go.

[Eddie]

All right.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go.

[Lunchbox]

They want to do my bike.

[Amy]

Do they want to do your bike? I think they're trying to showcase luxury.

[Lunchbox]

It's a nice bike.

[Bobby Bones]

That's true. All right, that's mine. You.

[Amy]

So I went to the event last night. That was a little controversy here, but this is just something I learned at the event. So I'm side stage about to go on, kind of, and this guitar player. Well, I know she's a guitar player. She comes up to me with a guitar, and I guess she plays guitar with Jace Rice. And she thought I was somebody else at first, like somebody's wife. And she came up and was, like, acting like she knew me. And so I just played along. Acted. I was like, hey, yeah, good to see you. And then she was like, wait a second. Are you so and so's wife? And I said, no. She was like, huh? And she's like, wait, what's your name? And I said, I'm Amy. And she said, are you from the Bobby Bones Show? And I said, yes. And she was like, oh, my gosh. I grew up listening to y' all in Austin way Back in the day. She's maybe 34 now, so go back 20 years. She was in high school. She was 14 or so when she's talking. So her high school years, she had a foster mom. I don't know how many kids were living with them. Things were. Her mom's health was not great. And on the show, we were giving away a lap band surgery or something.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

And her Foster Call her 10.

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't remember that, but okay, sure.

[Amy]

But there was some sort of surgery probably on Kiss FM or something that we were a part of giving away with a local doctor. And her foster mom won, and she was like, this is so crazy. It saved her life because of what the surgery did for her and how it changed how she lived and everything. And she was like, this is so crazy. She goes, I hadn't thought about this in forever. She's like, of course I listen y' all growing up. And then I knew you moved to Nashville, but I never seen you. And she was like, I haven't even really thought about that in a while. And then she's like, can we take a picture to send to my mom? And I was like, yeah, sure. So then we did. And so it was just a really cool moment for her where she just, like, couldn't believe that out of all the people, her mom won that surgery and that she never had the opportunity to tell us how. Of course, because the changes for her mom happened over time. But then looking back, she was like, 100%. That changed the trajectory of all of our lives. That surgery.

[Bobby Bones]

That's really cool.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

Today, people who switch their car insurance to geico save about $900 a year. Experts are calling that nice to know. Also, plants can hear when bees buzz. My ficus just heard that.

[Bobby Bones]

I was at a charity event once and this girl said, hey, Bobby Bones, right? I said, yeah. She said, I used to listen to you in Austin when I was in college. And I said, oh, that's cool. She goes, I want a trip to the Grammys with you guys. When I was like 23, I said, really? She goes, yeah, it was awesome. I said, we rarely meet people that win stuff. We know they do, but we rarely do. And she was like, that was like 15 years ago. She goes, that was a really awesome trip. And I never knew that I would ever tell you about it. Heck, I don't even think about that trip. But yeah, won that with you guys on Kiss fm. And I was like, that's great. I know, it's crazy. Yeah, that's good. That's a good one.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah, she, she. And she said, tell everybody hi, Lunchbox you.

[Bobby Bones]

She didn't know Eddie because Eddie wasn't

[Eddie]

on the show there.

[Amy]

Yeah, she. But. And then another listener came up and said she loves listening to the Bobby Brown show.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that happens.

[Amy]

And I was like, Okay, I. Of course I don't. I didn't say anything. But then as she kept talking, eventually she said, bones again. And so it's like, okay, she knows. It's just, I think at the beginning, are they nervous? Are they just. It just comes out because Bobby Brown, I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Bob Brown, Bobby Jones, Robbie Jones, Robbie Bones.

[Eddie]

It's all the combinations.

[Bobby Bones]

This point.

[Eddie]

It happens, you know, I had a neighbor yesterday. I was driving home and the dog ran across the street. And I was like, oh. I stopped real quick and the neighbor got the dog and said, hey, hold on. You ended up on my tick tock yesterday. And I'm like, what? Like, I have never met this neighbor before. He's like, yeah, you came up with my YouTube. You have low tea.

[Bobby Bones]

No way.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

No way.

[Eddie]

Yes. And I'm like, great. I was like, oh, was I cooking? No, I have low tea. Yeah, you guys were talking about you having low tea or something. Pretty crazy. I didn't know you.

[Bobby Bones]

You.

[Eddie]

You lived in my neighborhood, so that was pretty awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

He picks up a cell because you're not gonna believe this. Mr. Low T lives in my neighborhood.

[Amy]

Speaking of living in neighborhoods and dogs getting out, you know, might tell me something good. I think I had it last week that my friend I hadn't seen in years, but I've known her for, like, over 20 years because it was a job before I came here. Am I telling. Something good was that she reached out, and I love that she did. And we. We got together and turns out she lives right by you. So funny. I was like, oh, my gosh. So close. And she said. She goes, oh, yeah. I didn't know where he lived, but I saw him chasing a dog by school over here.

[Eddie]

Oh, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah. Probably a couple years ago.

[Amy]

Well, I don't. Yeah, yeah. She said at some point she. She didn't know if you just happen to be close by or you lived close by.

[Bobby Bones]

Lived and over. Chasing a dog.

[Amy]

She saw you chasing a dog? Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I can tell you what dog. It wasn't Stanley.

[Eddie]

Stanley. Not much chasing.

[Bobby Bones]

I do a lot. That's a good thing about that dog. And gotta do a lot of chasing, Eller.

[Amy]

So, yeah, it was maybe a couple years ago.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Once. Once I think she's freed, she runs.

[Amy]

Okay. I was just like, oh, that's funny. Small world. But then I was like, sweet. Whenever at Bobby's, I can swing by, we can go on a walk. Because she's so close. And I had no idea.

[Bobby Bones]

I think I remember that. Is she Pretty active, because I think she was, like, running.

[Amy]

I don't know. Is she.

[Bobby Bones]

Did she. I stopped her.

[Amy]

What do you mean by active? Like, she walks, maybe.

[Bobby Bones]

Did I stop her and talk to her?

[Amy]

No, she. I don't think she talked to you.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, okay. She just said, I'll stop people. It's like, have you seen this dog in a picture?

[Amy]

No, she just said she saw you, and I don't think she'd seen you in years. But, like, she was part of the. Like, she worked at the company when I, like, starting the show, so she remembers that whole process, and. But she was like, oh, my gosh. Yeah. I hadn't seen him forever, but it was definitely him. And I was like, yeah, that sounds about right.

[Bobby Bones]

Chasing dogs, man. Eddie, tell me something good.

[Eddie]

So my family's been in Texas for a few days, and they get back today, which is awesome. I don't know what time they get back. They're driving, so I'm excited. But it's been cool to live, you know, by myself for a little bit. I get to. I played a lot of golf. Like, as much as I could. I'm like, oh, I got two hours. I'm gonna go play golf. I did that. And then, like, for the most part, the house is clean. Like, I kept it clean.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you want the positive affirmation when she gets home and is like, man, the house looks good. Do you need that? Yes. Her to recognize.

[Eddie]

Yes. Because she's been back, like, before. They do this, like, almost every year. So when they come back, either I'm scrambling to get the house, like, back in order, or, like, it's just I never got to it, and she comes in like, oh, okay. Like, I got. So I guess.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah. That's the worst.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

But if she sees it's clean, do you want her.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

To give you that. You did such a good job of keeping the house clean. Yes.

[Eddie]

Even, like, the countertops are clean, she's gonna be like, wow.

[Bobby Bones]

And if she doesn't say, wow, it's okay.

[Eddie]

It's all right. I know.

[Amy]

But you want it.

[Bobby Bones]

But you want it. I do. Kind of like the reason you're doing it is not for you to keep the house clean. It's so she notices you kept the house.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I do that crap all the time.

[Eddie]

Dude. I even did laundry, and I don't do laundry.

[Bobby Bones]

You fold it, though.

[Eddie]

No, my. I folded mine.

[Amy]

But the kids do it today before they get home.

[Eddie]

No, no, no. The kids do their laundry. Like, I put.

[Bobby Bones]

But imagine it's all folded whenever she gets home.

[Eddie]

That's too much, dude. I can't do all that. That's too much.

[Amy]

Okay, what do you have to do today?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, we were thinking about playing local. I haven't played in a year, and I have to go playing this thing with clients. I've literally not touched a golf club.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

I'm gonna be terrible.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so he's doing. He's doing a service.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah, we're gonna have to play golf.

[Amy]

It's work. It is work. I don't even know golfing for work.

[Bobby Bones]

I haven't even asked Caitlyn if it's.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah, we talked about this yesterday, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, you don't even know. You don't know what it's like to have a baby, dude.

[Amy]

It's gonna be the last minute.

[Eddie]

You're right.

[Amy]

You know, that's my favorite thing that Bobby says now to. To guys that have multiple children.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Yeah. You guys don't know.

[Amy]

I just don't even know, you know

[Bobby Bones]

what it's like to travel, but today's world, you don't know what it's like.

[Eddie]

It's different.

[Bobby Bones]

You know what it was like back in your day. You don't know what it's like in today's world, so.

[Eddie]

Okay, well, let me know.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, I will let you know in that hour or so.

[Eddie]

Are you waiting for, like, the right time? That's what I do. I wait.

[Bobby Bones]

Mostly the right time is if she's awake.

[Eddie]

Oh, okay.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't want to text her. And then she wasn't awake whenever I left to come over here. And so, yeah, we'll see.

[Eddie]

Lately I've been waiting for, like, when she tells a joke or something and I'm like, oh, my gosh, that's so funny. Hey, speaking of, I think Bobby wants to play golf today.

[Amy]

You wait for a laugh, Something like

[Eddie]

some kind of, like, positive thing in the conversation.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that's funny.

[Amy]

Some wives put up these whole PowerPoints on things their husbands do to get golf, like, to try to teach men. Like, this is what you need to do. And it's like certain things around the house, and yet the. The time when you ask and how you ask it, and if certain things are done, then the wives are more than likely to be like, yeah, whatever, dude, go ahead. But, like, you just being proactive about it.

[Eddie]

Can you send me that the next

[Amy]

time I see the PowerPoint Lincoln, please?

[Bobby Bones]

Yesterday I had posted a YouTube video on, like, my side YouTube channel where we'd put the bobbycast and so now we don't put the Bobby cast there because it's on Netflix. But I had posted a video of the worst purchase that I've ever made, and I did a whole video revealing what it was. And I paid thousands of dollars for this. And I was just showing folks it wasn't the Apple Oculus thing. What's that called? Vision Pro. Yeah, you know, the Oculus thing. Terrible purchase. Wasn't my worst purchase ever. So I did a video. It's @Bobby Boneschannel is that YouTube page. And I was just showing people the worst purchase that I've made in the past few years, worse than the Apple Vision Pro. And Amy messages me through DM on that video, and she's like, what is it? I was like, click link in bio. Yeah, go watch video link. Link in bio.

[Amy]

I'm like, okay, lame. Now I have to go watch the video.

[Eddie]

Did you?

[Amy]

Not yet. Because I was. I was working last night, and then

[Bobby Bones]

I hit her with Lincoln Bio. Though I got home.

[Amy]

I think I got it when I got home, and I was too tired, but that's what he said. And I was like, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, Lincoln bio, man.

[Eddie]

I do appreciate sometimes, like, people comment, they're just like, I'm gonna save you time is what it is.

[Amy]

Yeah. I always head straight to the comments. Like, if there's an article, I go straight to the comments. And then every. Most people are replying to them like, thanks for doing the Lord's work.

[Eddie]

Yeah. They're like, the deadliest soda is. And they'll start with number 10. I'm not watching this.

[Bobby Bones]

Tell me something good. Lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

Game six last night. NBA Western Conference Finals. My San Antonio spurs one to force a Game seven. And I got to watch every minute of it because I didn't have to work last night, so.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah, that's right.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. So it was great. Sat on the couch and enjoyed every minute of it. So Saturday night, got an appointment in front of my TV to watch Game seven.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it's a big one.

[Bobby Bones]

What, you go to Oklahoma City? It's a weekend.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I don't have that kind of money, man.

[Eddie]

How much are those tickets?

[Bobby Bones]

If you wanted to get up high in the. In the building and get closer to the game, you could probably get for a few hundred bucks a piece.

[Eddie]

Like a couple hundred.

[Bobby Bones]

300, I'm assuming, coupled a few hundred. You're gonna have to risk it and go there and try to buy them in front. But Mike could probably give us, like, right now, price is going to be

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

way higher you can get in the

[Bobby Bones]

building for 3:30 right now you can.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Then you'll be able to get in cheaper there if you go. If Arkansas would have won last night, that softball game, they went to 10 innings. Late, late game. They ended up losing on a home run to Nebraska. If they would have won that game, they would have played again Saturday. We might have gone and doubled it up and went to the basketball game.

[Lunchbox]

No way.

[Eddie]

That would have been cool.

[Bobby Bones]

My father in law does not miss a Thunder game. I know regular season all games, watches them all. But it was also harder for like dj, my brother in law to get an Airbnb for like Grace and the family because not only is the College World Series happening in Oklahoma City, but the NBA finals are happening there.

[Amy]

Okay, question about the loss last night. Does that mean they're still in or are they out?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it's double elimination. It's a double tournament. So they'll play tonight since they lost against UCLA, but it went 10 innings.

[Amy]

So if they win tonight, would they play Saturday?

[Bobby Bones]

No, if they went tonight, they'd play probably Sunday. Oh, probably Sunday.

[Eddie]

Late game. You think tonight's a late game Sunday though?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. I didn't look at.

[Eddie]

You're not even thinking about that?

[Bobby Bones]

Nah. Nebraska is awesome. They have the best player in college softball and softball games are seven innings and it went to 10 innings last night and Nebraska had a home run to win it at the end. Arkansas played really good. Nebraska just has a player that not only is the best pitcher, it is also one of the top hitters in the league. She's Shohei Ohtani of college softball. She's awesome. She played for Oklahoma for two years, won two national championships and then she ended up going back home where she's from to Nebraska to just play at home. And so it's really, it's cool to see her story. Her name's Jordy Fromm now. I used to be Jordy Ball, but it's a good game. I, I was irritated or nah, I was upset we lost because I don't want to lose. I want to see DJ succeed and I want Arkansas to win. But man, they played a great game and Nebraska just played a little better at the end. So big shout out to all the Nebraska fans. Really one of the nicest fan bases I've ever seen. And I've had a few experiences with the Nebraska folks, like at games, different types of games. That's a pretty legit fan base as far as nice fan bases go. Never had a bad Experience.

[Eddie]

I don't know any Nebraska fans that are mean.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you know any Nebraska fans? Have you ever been to something where there's Nebraska against you?

[Eddie]

Because no.

[Bobby Bones]

I know Longhorn fans individually. They're not mean. Longhorn fans as a group, thumbs down.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but there are some schools like LSU fans individually.

[Bobby Bones]

Good. LSU fans as a group, thumbs down. Kentucky basketball fans individually. I know a lot of them.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

As a group, double thumbs down. Kick them in the ditch.

[Eddie]

Like, even Texas fans sometimes they just think they're so Sorry, Mike. They just think they're so good and like, wow, they do. They are Notre Dame fans, too. Always kind of feel like, oh, we're Notre Dame. We're so good. We're better than you. Yeah. You know, and I like.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Nebraska. I. Yeah. To your question, I don't think I know one Nebraska fan.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, they're really seem to be a really nice fan base.

[Eddie]

You know what, though? There were a lot of people at that game. Like, that stadium.

[Bobby Bones]

It was the most attended college World Series game ever. It's always jam. And that stadium is the greatest, best softball facility I've ever seen. And it's big. It's in Oklahoma City.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it looks big.

[Bobby Bones]

Even the Olympics will be held there. Okay, next. Whenever we do the Olympics, softball is there in that stadium. It's amazing. They have the College World Series there every year, and usually it's packed because I think, well, Oklahoma is in it every year. Oklahoma's not even in it this year, and there were 13,000 people there last night. Yeah. Pretty wild. All right, Mike. How long has it been?

[Eddie]

32 minutes.

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like everybody got enough good in. You guys gooded out. We're good.

[Amy]

Yeah. Everybody. I'm trying to remember. Trying to remember everybody's. Because we talked about a lot. Yours was the baby dinner. Mine was the labian surgery giveaway winner from long time.

[Bobby Bones]

You met a listener. Yeah.

[Eddie]

At the show that you worked last night.

[Amy]

At the show that I worked last night. Lunchbox was that he got to watch the basketball game because he didn't have to work the show last night. And then Eddie's was that his family has been gone.

[Eddie]

That's right.

[Bobby Bones]

I think lunchbox is two. Is that they won't.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Had he got to watch the game?

[Amy]

Yeah, that's what I mean. Like, he got to watch them win. Yeah. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

That would have been a double whammy.

[Eddie]

Oh, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you like a game like last night where it never really was a game.

[Lunchbox]

No. It's boring.

[Eddie]

Oh, really?

[Bobby Bones]

Even if your Team wins, though. Would you rather have a game like that or a close one?

[Lunchbox]

Close one. I'd rather them win a close one.

[Eddie]

No way.

[Lunchbox]

Like, it's more exciting. Like, it's just like. Like I didn't even watch the fourth quarter because it was like, it's over. Okay, cool. We can, I mean, turn it off. It's not really amazing. I mean, it's cool to see him play well, but I also want that drama and the trepidation, the emotional roller coaster.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Why? Why do you want that?

[Lunchbox]

It's more fun.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

Yeah, there's. It's exciting to have, but when you're.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. But you don't know you're going to win, though.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

During that type of game.

[Eddie]

Like, I don't like that feeling. Like, if it's your team, like, we're talking about the Spurs. Right. It's your team. You want them to just kill. Like, you don't want the close game. Be all stressed out. If I'm watching a random game, I'm like, cool, this is a good game. I don't care about either team. And this is fun to watch.

[Bobby Bones]

But that game was over so quick. I never flipped it on.

[Eddie]

It really was.

[Bobby Bones]

We were eating and it was. We had a brief amount of time to put the baby and I was like, oh, I might put the game on if it's close. It was.

[Amy]

What was the score?

[Bobby Bones]

It ended up being a little closer at the end. It was like 11891 or something. Right. That may not be the final score.

[Lunchbox]

Somewhere around there. It was a. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

What was it? 1 1891. Okay, so good job.

[Eddie]

It.

[Bobby Bones]

The game wasn't as close as even that score, though. I didn't feel like. Because when I turned it on, it,

[Eddie]

like, looked at the score, they were up by 30 at one point.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Game seven.

[Amy]

But what's crazy about basketball is they can come back fast.

[Eddie]

They can. I mean, the spurs went on a 200 run. Like 20 points.

[Amy]

Like, you can think like, someone's down, like, by 20 or something. They're for sure gonna win.

[Eddie]

It's like no basketball, those threes start draining. Like, it's close.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a lot late in a game. But the Knicks did, and it was like the last series, they were down 20 in the fourth. It was like the biggest comeback ever, playoff wise. All right, that's it. Tell me something good. That's what's up. And that's what it's all about. Thank you.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Get it, get it. It's time for the good News with Bobby. A fifth grader at a school in Utah learned that other kids had lunch debt.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

So this fifth grader at the school

[Bobby Bones]

in Utah raised more than $2,100 to eliminate all the debt from the other kids at a school.

[Amy]

I love that.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

This fifth grader in the school did

[Bobby Bones]

that for the other kids out of school. His name is Liam Whitney. Man, that's pretty cool. Liam.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

Parents.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's my baby hasn't done that.

[Amy]

She will.

[Eddie]

Don't worry.

[Amy]

She hasn't done that yet.

[Bobby Bones]

I know. She's 11 weeks now. I'm expecting big things already. Maybe a little premature.

[Eddie]

That would be an awesome. Tell me something good.

[Bobby Bones]

11 week old baby cures cancer. In an effort to make sure that his fellow students could eat lunch, he spent more than a week going door to door, knocking and telling people what was up. And so he raised them. Man, that is crazy.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

That's from kutv. That is what it's all about.

[Bobby Bones]

It's time for the good news with producer Eddie.

[Eddie]

There's a married couple, Bill and Pat. They live in Maine. And Pat just like, says, I need to go upstairs. I got a headache. Like, I don't feel good. And the cat is like, meowing. So Pat's like, I don't know. I guess the cat wants to come upstairs with me. Meowing, meowing, meowing. Like, Pat's like, leave me alone. And then Bill's like, hey, my head kind of hurts too. The cat runs the Bill and starts meowing. Like, what is happening? So they're like, we should call 911 or something. We just don't feel good. And the cat's freaking out. Turns out they had carbon monoxide. There was a. There was a furnace in the basement that was leaking propane, and they were all just getting affected by it. They say that it. If it wasn't for the cat or them freaking out about it, I mean, they wouldn't have made it.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a scary one too, because we can't sense that, right?

[Amy]

I mean, you're. The headache is a. Yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm saying it's like, smell.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah, I know. But if, like, I got a headache and then let's say we don't have the cat. If I got a headache and then

[Bobby Bones]

you were like, I'm dehydrated.

[Amy]

I just got a headache too. You wouldn't be like, we should go outside?

[Eddie]

No, I'd be like, let's both nap.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, fair enough. And then never wake up if I got a headache. And then you Got a headache. I would go. I didn't drink enough water. And your ponytail's too tight.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

I'd find.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Possible.

[Bobby Bones]

Find reasons. You ever hear about the cat that was predicting people's death at the nursing home?

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

So it was Oscar.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

It was a cat at the Steer House Nursing and Rehab Center.

[Bobby Bones]

It was a dementia and hospice facility. It was in the mid 2000s. And so the staff started noticing that Oscar was not just generally a cat that was warm to people anyway.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

Not a lot of cats are.

[Bobby Bones]

But when a patient was within hours of dying, the cat would jump on their bed and, like, be really, really, really sweet and nice to them and curl up with them.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

And it never did this.

[Bobby Bones]

Unless that was the case. And then he would stay with them until they passed away. And I looked to see, because this was a news story a few times, and there were over a hundred counts of this. It wasn't like two lucky times. They said it happened over a hundred times. That's like chilly. Not because it's good or bad. It's just like an animal to have that sense, that sense, that understanding of what's happening.

[Eddie]

But like, after two, though, and Oscar shows up to your room, you're just like.

[Amy]

I feel like at that point, though, you're like, okay, cool, Oscar, I'm ready.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, what would happen after it happened a few times is that once Oscar did that, they would call the families. It was almost a predictor. I would say they even treated it as a predictor because it had happened so many times that when Oscar laid near them, their families were quietly called in.

[Eddie]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

And it was written about first in the New England Journal of Medicine. So it wasn't like US Weekly column, but Oscar Dayton, Taylor Swift or something. It was that. And so the scientific theory is that as people near death, their bodies reportedly release chemicals. It's like chemical changes in their bodies. Ketones. Ketones. I don't know how to say that word.

[Amy]

Yeah, I mean, I know what ketones are.

[Bobby Bones]

We have those, and that's what it is. So ketones and other scents that humans can't detect. Animals can sometimes sense any tiny metabolic changes, temperature changes, or behavioral stillness. And so pretty wild that the cat not only could sense it, but its

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

relationship with it was get close to it.

[Bobby Bones]

Because if animals can sense that they're probably sensing dead people all over the place. They just don't care. Yeah, but this cat would do that with people.

[Eddie]

Well, this cat was Mojo. And Mojo senses carbon monoxide. Pretty cool. Not as cool as Oscar, there are

[Bobby Bones]

times my wife and I both have a headache and I think it's just.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

I find reasons like I find excuses.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, there you go.

[Sponsor/Advertiser]

That is a good story. That's what it's all about.

[Bobby Bones]

That was. Tell me something good.
