[B]

It's time for the good news. Tell me something good. What you got.

[A]

Well, for me, I was just thinking about the difference of me when I was my kid's age and then my kids and, like, things they like to do. Like, my daughter had a friend spend the night last night, and they were like, we're gonna go to Michael's and get a friendship. Make a friendship bracelet making kit, and then we're gonna pick up Chipotle and come back and watch TV and make bracelets. Like, sweet. When I graduated high school, I was in a field somewhere. So I just had a lot of gratitude last night that.

[C]

That, you know, and it feels like parting.

[A]

Yeah, that's what we did.

[B]

Is there any chance, though, that she's not in a field somewhere? And then does the rural part of where she lives have something to do with it or where you lived have something to do with.

[A]

No, I lived in the middle of. I went to Austin High in the middle of downtown Austin. We found fields.

[B]

I think there were more fields there than here.

[A]

I think they. Fields, field parties, I don't think exist anymore because of life360.

[B]

Have life360 if you're 18. Like, generally speaking, like, if I were 18.

[A]

Yeah. Don't act like that's weird, because if

[B]

I were 18 or 19, I would go, I'm not being on your life.

[A]

Okay, well, do you pay for your own car insurance? And.

[B]

Yes, I did.

[A]

Okay, well, then you're good.

[D]

You can do it. You're in the clear, dude.

[A]

But, like, you're still not. Like, you're still at home. Like, yes, you've graduated high school now for the last, what, two weeks, but you're still at home. And I was just thinking of how it's just different. And I have gratitude for my kids, even my son going into high school. I just. I love all their friends. Their. Their friends. How do I say?

[B]

Their friend groups.

[A]

I'm saying this. Their friends groups are, like, kind of,

[B]

you know, don't say nerdy, kind of boring.

[A]

No, no, they're fun. But I love. I love that it's like nobody's trying to be, like, the cool kid that's

[B]

cool unless you just don't know it.

[A]

No, because I'm not naive.

[B]

Okay? That's what your par say about you.

[A]

No, no, no. I.

[B]

My point is. You're probably right to a point.

[A]

I was making poor choices, I think. No, my dad allowed it, and then my mom caught me multiple times. So my parents weren't oblivious to what was happening, but they couldn't monitor. I. I am curious about. Did kids still do the field stuff. Because we all did feel right. Everybody.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Oh, we fielded.

[B]

Okay. But everybody follow me here.

[A]

Everybody.

[B]

Your parents didn't know everything you were doing. They didn't. Even if they caught you doing stuff, you don't know everything your kids are doing.

[A]

I, I will agree with that. And I. There's a certain level of acceptance you have to have as a parent when it comes to that. And. Okay, that's. That's. That's okay. And I don't know, I do wonder, though, because my kids aren't in that crowd. I wonder if that crowd, they still do field parties.

[B]

I'm saying there's a possibility they are in that crowd just a little bit, and you just don't know it, guys.

[D]

I mean, there's a possibility. And I can't believe I'm with Bobby, that your 18 year old is on life. 360. That's. They're about there. They can go to college in a month and a half and you're still following every step. It's like, ugh, okay.

[A]

They want to. They can also see where I am too.

[B]

Like, how fun is that? Let me see where my mom is. Hey, guys, come over. Let's watch where my mom goes tonight. She's in therapy.

[A]

Okay. Kids also with locations in Snapchat. You kids, they all. Even with their friend groups. They. They know where everybody is. Like, it's just. They're a little more accepting with that. People know where they are different with

[D]

your friend group and your parents.

[B]

I think it's great. I think it's great.

[A]

This is supposed to be telling me something good, but is it ever okay?

[B]

Does it ever just end up being good? No, no.

[A]

I just was thankful for like, hey, where are y' all going? Michael's, to get an arts and crafts project.

[B]

And you don't think I just want

[A]

to throw a scenario that they didn't go to Michael's? No, I saw the friendship.

[B]

They don't have a friend, like, covering for them and going, okay, we'll meet you at the corner, take my phone to Michael's and just.

[A]

That would be so much work. And then you come home with the chipotle and the bracelet maker. What did you go do during that hour?

[B]

You don't want to know. I'm not saying they do. But you were having people cover for you, say, I'm over here. I'm just saying it.

[A]

Yeah. And I, that, that got me in trouble because. And then I would be having parties in my dad's house and I Would have to be home at my mom's house for curfew.

[B]

Tell me that wouldn't be, like, the ultimate friend. Yeah, I'll cover for you. Meet us here. I'll hand you my phone, take it to Michael's, chill at Michael's for, like, an hour, pick up some Chipotle. We'll meet you back in an hour, hand it back off so I can go home and prove that I was there.

[C]

Well, that'd be amazing.

[A]

Easiest one to do it so that you can go. Do what during that hour?

[B]

Whatever you want.

[A]

Go to a field, smoke weed.

[D]

Yep, that's what I was thinking. That's exactly what I thought.

[A]

What, from two people?

[C]

Heroin.

[B]

Don't smoke weed.

[A]

Two people.

[D]

Because we're smoking weeds, guys. I mean, I don't understand how this is so hard to me either. This is what kids do. Because a kid at 18 does not think that's too much effort. They don't think. They think.

[B]

I thought about it in one second.

[D]

They will go through anything to get away with something. Kids don't realize all the work it is.

[A]

Okay, well, at least for last night, okay, I'll give you that kids can get creative with their. In finagling some master plan to get an hour with a drug or something.

[B]

A drug or whatever they're gonna do.

[A]

But, like, that's not what happened. And I guess I'm just saying, like, I'm thankful. Like, even all weekend, we hung out. Like, Friday night, we went to get Mexican food, and it was me, my son, my daughter, and then two of their friends. Like, and we ran into those friends and the parking lot, we were like, eat with us. Like, hang out. We ended up be. And it's not like Stasher and Stevenson were like, no, mom, don't invite. That's embarrassing. No, we just. It was fun, and we all hung out.

[B]

I believe you, and I think you're probably right.

[A]

I'm just saying my parents weren't doing that with me on a weekend, and. Or, sorry, I wasn't wanting to do that with my parents on a weekend.

[B]

So now you're giving you the credit because they want to do it with you?

[A]

I don't know.

[C]

The drinking thing is weird, though. Like, my kids don't have any interest in drinks.

[A]

I do think drinking has gone down significantly with the younger.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

You know, so that's kind of cool.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Like, they don't even care what I'm drinking.

[B]

They're probably vaping when you don't know it's.

[A]

Well, I know My daughter. I know. It's been. Yes. My son is too terrified of that. I just know his personality. And my daughter's already tried it and she's like, ugh.

[B]

That's what I would say, too.

[C]

Didn't like it.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

No, she. She's not. I know, but.

[B]

But I would just say that I

[A]

saw it checked off on her bucket list, so.

[B]

Well. Oh, yeah. Vaping. Yeah. I'm just saying that I think drinking. Yeah. Is down a bit. You're right. But also, statistically, I also think vaping

[A]

is way it is, and that's a very scary thing.

[B]

And easier to conceal and doesn't smell as bad.

[A]

And they have fun flavors. And kids are like, oh, yeah, cherry. And it's like, yeah, but still, it's gonna tar your lungs.

[B]

And even, like, gummy bear flavor. Maybe I'll try.

[C]

Yummy.

[A]

I know that part is scary because it's not good for you.

[B]

Well, you have good kids. That's awesome.

[A]

Well, I. We have other challenges. I'm not saying, like, everything's just honky dory, but it's not honky dory. I was.

[B]

Honky is a term you call a white person hunky. But you say that.

[C]

Thought it sounded weird.

[D]

Yes,

[A]

I've always said honky dory.

[B]

Well, don't. It doesn't matter. You can, but it's not right.

[A]

Okay, so what's the origin of the honky dory?

[B]

That it's not honky. Honky dory is not a saying.

[A]

Okay, well, now I need to know why it's hunky.

[B]

Hunky dory, 1860s. It combines the earlier slang hunky, meaning safer, satisfactory, with dory, a rhyming add on of unknown origin. Hunky traces back to the New York City street game slang hunk. In this tag, it means you're safe, you're home, you're at the goal. Okay, so it stems from the Dutch word honk, meaning refugee or base, but it's not honky. Well, honky later turned into a term you call a white person.

[C]

Yeah. What's the origin of that one?

[B]

I don't know. I don't even know what a honky means.

[A]

Okay, well, hey, you learned something new.

[C]

I see how you got it confused, though, Amy.

[A]

Yeah, because it's root. I'm Latin root.

[C]

Sure.

[B]

Let's see. The exact origins of honky are generally unknown. Eastern European honky may derive from something in the West African language. The first recorded use of honky. 1946. Yeah, I don't know. I Mean, even the articles about it are basically articles saying, we don't know.

[C]

Is that why it's a honky tonk?

[D]

Oh, good question.

[B]

Oh, I don't know about that.

[C]

Like a bunch of white country dudes

[B]

and then what's a tonk?

[C]

Right? Is that a slang for bar? Honky tonk. Okay, okay.

[B]

Honky tonk originated in the late 19th century American Southwest as slang for cheap, working class variety theaters and saloons that feature drinking, gambling, and live Entertainment. By the mid 20th century, onomatopoeia. But the name may have been created to mimic the loud, unrestrained, and slightly rasha style of music being played. So basically, it was a sound.

[C]

Honky tonk.

[B]

Honky tonk.

[A]

But donkey donk.

[C]

Okay, okay, okay.

[B]

Honk. The words are entire. Great question, though. I never thought about honky. Also, honky's not offensive.

[C]

It's not?

[B]

Nah.

[C]

Can I say honky? We go back to this. Is it okay if I say honky?

[A]

I don't know.

[B]

It's like, yes.

[A]

I'm like, as a white person sometimes, I'm like, I just can't. There's no reason for me to ever get offended.

[C]

Yeah, right.

[B]

Yeah.

[C]

Yeah. Come on, guys. I know life's too short.

[B]

I don't subscribe to that. For anybody being offended by anything.

[A]

It's just white people, but, yeah, just

[B]

white people honking it all day long.

[C]

Yeah. Okay.

[B]

Yeah, Okay. I do think that's cool that you like your kids where they are in their life now and their friends.

[A]

Thanks.

[C]

And they're up to no good. I mean, they're not up to no good.

[B]

Right. My only point was, I would imagine there's a lot of kids whose parents think their kids aren't up to. No. That's a tough one.

[C]

You're right. This is hard.

[B]

But then they're secretly doing. Also doing some kids stuff that they

[A]

don't know about, right?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Oh, yeah. Trust me, I've lived through sneaky things. And a lot. Like, we've dealt with a lot of that. I hope that we're past it, but that's, you know, normal teenage stuff.

[B]

Amen, sister.

[A]

And I simply had gratitude for friendship making, friendship bracelet making.

[B]

That's how it started. And we just turned it into where does honky come from? All right, Eddie.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

So here's an update on my weekend. So I told you guys that I got invited to the lake by another dad. So it was basically another dad, his son. And he's friends with my son. So it was just us four on a Boat. We went, guys, it was actually fun. Like, I had a pretty good time. There wasn't a lot of talking, like him and I don't have a lot of. We talked a little bit about sports because I thought. I thought about, like, what you were going down. Like, all right, what are you talking about? There's sports. What else? We talked about sports. We talked about work. We talked about, you know, what I do, my industry. We talked about. He's an accountant. So we talked about kind of his stuff. It wasn't like financial advice. No, I didn't go down that. That thing. But it was fun, man. We like, you know, jumped off. It was like a double decker pontoon boat. We jumped off. There was a rope swing. Like we did all that kind of stuff. And he brought beer.

[B]

Oh, he did? Yeah.

[C]

So that was awesome. He brought beer. We kind of hung out, played music.

[B]

Did you do dinner after?

[C]

And we ended up doing dinner after. I tried to get out. Well, here's what happened. So when we pulled up to the marina, there's a Mexican restaurant on the marina. Like, you know, that's kind of where you eat. There are only like three spots to eat. And so we get there and it's jam packed. There's a band playing Margaritaville. Like, it's that vibe. And I was like, let me go check to see if we can get a table. And I go in there and I say, what's the wait? They're like, oh, 50 minutes.

[A]

55, zero.

[B]

Oh, wow, that's all too long.

[C]

So I go back, I'm like, oh, it's 50 minutes. You know, we're have to drive back. I don't think this is going to happen. He's like, hey, let me try one more. Let's try one more spot. If that doesn't work, no, you guys can take off. So I said, deal, let's go. And we go to another spot. They were wide open. So we ended up eating. It was fine.

[A]

We were gonna have to eat.

[C]

So yeah, I mean, look, it was fun. It was fun.

[D]

Are you trying to convince us of yourself?

[C]

No.

[B]

We've said nothing to push against you and you keep fighting for it. I think that's great.

[A]

I feel horrible if today that guy's like, oh, Eddie talked about his industry. Let me look at his YouTube page. Oh, tell me something good. He's like watching it right now.

[C]

No, I think we both were just like, it's getting kind of late, you know, like it's been a day.

[B]

How long was the boat trip?

[C]

Four hours.

[B]

Oh, kill me.

[A]

Oh, no, but that's fun. You're driving all the way out there, you want to enjoy the day.

[B]

It doesn't matter who it's with. I don't want to be outside for four hours unless I'm playing ball. That's it.

[D]

And so there was only four of you guys on a double decker boat for four hours.

[A]

Two adults, two kids.

[C]

That's right.

[D]

That's crazy.

[C]

But you know what, man? It solidified my thought. I need a boat. Like, I just. I need a boat.

[B]

Okay, you're the one complaining you can't save money, but you're going to buy a boat.

[C]

But I'm telling you, you know how people like, oh, the worst thing about having a boat is the day you buy it. And the day, or whatever, the best

[B]

two days of having a boat. Yeah. And you know what boat stands for, right?

[C]

Hold on, hold on. I've heard this. No, I don't know it.

[B]

I don't either.

[D]

Something.

[B]

It's something about, like on another tire. Oh, but. But on another. I don't remember. I was hoping.

[C]

It's not good. Whatever it is.

[B]

It's like, bring on another turd. 10.

[D]

10,000. 10,000.

[B]

Bust out another thousand.

[C]

Oh, there we go. There we go.

[B]

Yeah, you don't need a boat.

[C]

Dude, I'm so at peace out there, like the whole time.

[A]

Rent one. Like do a boat club.

[C]

Is that worth it?

[D]

Yeah, because you won't be able to go to the boat.

[B]

I was in a boat club. For me, I did not find it was worth it. You can't get the good boats unless you reserve them two weeks ahead of time because there's limited boats. So then you're fighting. You're all anxious if you're gonna get a good boat and you get stuck with a stupid pontoon when you wanted to go and like, wake skate.

[C]

You wanted the speedboat.

[B]

Yeah, it could be worth it to you. But as someone who's done it, I found it not to be that fun, man.

[C]

I was sitting there while we were like. There was this one point we were just. He wanted to show me Garth Brook's house. And he's like, yeah, because I guess he has a house in the lake. It's one of those things where, like, everybody on the lake kind of.

[B]

It could be like Dolly's house. Everyone thinks that Dolly lives somewhere in Nashville. She doesn't live there.

[A]

Maybe Ray knows. Does he have a

[C]

Ray?

[B]

Why'd you stop talking in the middle of the sentence, Amy?

[A]

I was trying to look back at it. I thought Ray was dying.

[B]

I think I kept talking and looking. It sounded like our audio went out.

[C]

I know.

[A]

Sorry. Sorry. I figured Ray might know if he has a lake house.

[B]

Hey, you know what's funny about.

[C]

That's exactly what it sounded like.

[B]

What just happened?

[A]

I don't know. That was weird. I wanted to look back at Ray.

[B]

Well, you guys were all there for the wedding. Was there any water on the.

[C]

No, no, no. It's a lake house at another. Another lake?

[A]

Yeah, sure.

[B]

Yeah. Garth goes to a lake house. Dude.

[C]

Okay, maybe not. I don't know. But, you know, I did think, though, because when he's like, hey, let me drive you by. By Garth to lake house. I thought, oh, what if, like, Raymundo and Bay are there? That'd be crazy.

[B]

They're out in their little shorts sunbathing. So it wasn't. You think he just was told that?

[C]

I mean, there was no one at the house. It's all, you know, no one was there at the time.

[B]

So somebody told me about Alan Jackson's house once on the lake, and I knew it wasn't Alan Jackson's house, and I didn't say anything.

[C]

Was it the same lake?

[B]

I don't know. I've only ever been out on one lake one time, I think. Right. I don't know. I don't know the lakes here because I'm not lake guy, so I don't know what lake we. I don't even know what lake we're on.

[C]

We went to Tim's.

[A]

Tim's Ford.

[B]

Okay, I'm lying. We went fishing. I'm talking about went out on a lake for a boat day when you, like, do water stuff.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, that was probably there. Tim's Ford.

[B]

Yeah. No idea.

[A]

But there's other, closer lakes.

[B]

Well, regardless, someone was like, that's Alan Jackson's house. And I knew for a fact it wasn't Alan Jackson's house. But I just kept my mouth shut because what am I getting by saying, no, it's not.

[C]

That's not it, honestly.

[B]

But you had a good time? Had a blast.

[C]

I really did. It was great. And I. Gosh, I just need a boat.

[B]

[C]

A pontoon boat and I, we went.

[B]

You want a pontoon?

[C]

Okay, I want a pontoon.

[B]

And a boat club may be okay for you.

[C]

Like, I never wanted the pontoon. It's a chill pontoon boat where, like, if I want to, like, tie a raft to the back, the kids can, like, you know, just ride on the tube or whatever. But I saw one that had a barbecue pit on it.

[B]

That's cool.

[C]

Like, that's the life.

[B]

Like to mention a couple things to you that I'm sure you know about, but maybe you haven't thought about fully. If you get a boat, a pontoon boat. So you either have to drag it back to your house on a boat trailer, which is always annoying, and you have nowhere to store it at your house.

[C]

House. I don't. But I'd ask you, somebody with a

[B]

little bit of land, I would say no.

[C]

Okay.

[B]

Okay. So. And then two. Because I don't want to be responsible for it if it's.

[C]

But you can use it anytime you want.

[B]

I will never use it.

[C]

Okay.

[B]

Secondly, then you have to either rent a slip or dry store it, which means they put it. And then when you go to it, they have like a forklift takes it, puts it in the water for you to get there. It's cool. But that's also expensive. Yeah, it's monthly dues.

[C]

Yeah, that's the extra thousand.

[B]

Those are the. Well, and then the boat's always broken. Something's always wrong with it.

[A]

So, yeah, bust out another thousand.

[B]

Oh, that's cool.

[C]

Good job.

[A]

Something they say a little acronym and

[D]

you have sporting events every weekend.

[C]

That's true. I go during the week. I don't care.

[B]

Do you really, really wish you had a boat so much on the boat that you would consider buying one?

[C]

Yes. Yes.

[B]

No. No. This is not. This is not. I'm a kidney. This is. You really want to boat 100.

[C]

You don't understand. When I hit the water on a boat, I feel so good.

[B]

You understand? With a boat, there's no more golf.

[C]

You can still do golf.

[B]

You're not going to be able to do both. That's tough because you only have so much extra time, especially with four kids, you're not going to be able to do both.

[C]

What about winter? Like, do you take the boat out in the winter?

[B]

You can.

[C]

Like, it'd be cold.

[B]

Most people don't.

[C]

Didn't think about that.

[B]

The people in the winter that do that. I know. Either do water sports and wetsuits because they're really dedicated, or they'll fish.

[C]

Fishing's good in the winter, but you

[B]

don't really chill in the winter on the water for the most part. Right. So just think about that.

[C]

I didn't think about all that. All that stuff.

[B]

Yeah. Well, rooting for you.

[C]

Thank you, man. Dude, it was. Boat life is just great. Lake life. Love it.

[B]

That's cool.

[C]

Everyone's barefooted at that restaurant, you know,

[B]

like, that's your vibe, huh?

[C]

My vibe.

[B]

That's not mine. That's cool. Lunchbox.

[D]

Yeah. I'm excited. My parents are actually going on a vacation. They hit the road yesterday and they're not coming to see me, but they're driving to Chicago. Probably the first vacation they've gone on in over two years. And so they're driving up to see my mom's sister. And so I'm just excited for them to actually go do something because I keep telling them, hey, guys, you're not getting younger. Go do something. Like go on vacation. So they're headed to Chicago and I'm so happy for them.

[B]

That's cool. And very selfless of you to have emotions for someone else.

[D]

Yeah, I mean, I just think it's exciting for my mom to see her sisters because her sister lives in Chicago and she has another one in Atlanta, so she never sees them. And so she's finally going to see her.

[B]

Some would say uncharacteristic.

[C]

Well, those are his parents.

[B]

He doesn't matter. Starts somewhere. Right.

[C]

I feel like with his parents. He loves his parents.

[B]

He does. He does. Kiss him on the mouth.

[C]

Brother, not so much.

[B]

You kiss your brother on the mouth?

[D]

No.

[B]

That's weird that you don't, considering you kiss your dad on the mouth and your dad kisses your brother on the mouth. You guys could just do it all at once. Triple kiss and get it over with.

[D]

Yeah. And I don't kiss my sister on the mouth either.

[A]

Thank goodness.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Yeah. I just kissed my mom and my dad. That's it, Morgan.

[E]

CMA Fest is over. It was a busy, busy weekend, but it was also really cool because I got to see Shibuzi at my favorite dive bar. He was on the Ox all night. And then I also got to see Waka Flocka come out with Chase Matthew, which is a cool moment. So it was a fun, but I am exhausted.

[B]

Did you go out every day? Friday and Saturday and Sunday.

[E]

I did something every day. Yeah. It was a. It was a really busy weekend.

[B]

You look like you got a little son.

[E]

I got a spray tan that same.

[B]

You still look like you got a little son.

[C]

That's the effect you go for, regardless.

[B]

You do look like you got a little son.

[E]

Yeah. It was crazy, though. So Chase Matthew brought out Waka Flocka, and they. So they did their, like, new song together. But then Chase Matthew went into the crowd and then continued in the crowd, and then he walked to Broadway. It was like a mob followed him off of Riverfront.

[B]

That's actually pretty cool. You just keep going. It's like Forrest Gump when he scores a touchdown, he just runs through the tunnel. Oh, he probably handed it off at some point.

[A]

Yeah. I thought he was just still singing

[B]

like he's at True Food Kitchen. Still singing while getting a little lunch. Give me your best. Best performance. Maybe not even sounded the best, but, like, coolest thing you saw.

[E]

Hmm. Gosh. I mean, the Waka Flocka thing was really cool, but I'm. I'm a huge fan of Max McNown, so getting to finally see him was really cool.

[A]

I've never.

[E]

I never got to see him live. His show got canceled last year because the rain. So getting to see him now and his. Like, it was packed for his. He was my favorite, I would say.

[C]

What is Waka Flocka Sing?

[B]

Ask Morgan.

[E]

A lot of rap songs. I'm not going to pretend.

[C]

Give me one. Give me one. Come on.

[A]

No.

[E]

All I know, like, a lot from him is Waka Flocka.

[A]

Waka Flocka. Waka Flocka.

[E]

Like, where they repeat it.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

That's what I know the most of, but I'm not going to pretend to rap like that.

[B]

Damn it. Damn it. With no hands. That's Waka Flocka, I think. Mike. Is that Waka Flocka Hard in the paint. I go do that one. I don't know.

[C]

I just know the song.

[B]

Yeah, I know. No hands. Rather with no hands. Is that him? That's it, man. Maybe I'm a walk like a Fan. I saw Fetty Wap was with Russell Dickerson, and I knew because they did that song together, and I knew he was coming with Russell Dickerson, and I couldn't say anything about it because we recorded the episode and it doesn't air till, I think, next week. The part we could leave in was about the ankle monitor, right? Yes. It was just the other thing we could do.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

He talked about something and then he called him was like, I don't think I'm supposed to say that. And I was like, nope, no problem. I think Fetty Waps, he just got a prison and he could only be in town for 24 hours. Oh, wow. So they had to get him a plane to come down. He had to get back home to New Jersey for 24 hours.

[C]

No way.

[A]

Oh, he has to get special permission to, like, related. He can travel.

[B]

Yeah. Or he doesn't need special permission if he's back within 24 hours type thing. But yeah, I think he was living

[E]

it up for those 24 hours, too. I saw a lot of posts of him.

[B]

I'm telling.

[C]

I would.

[B]

Russell Dickerson is such a fun guy. As far, if we look at, like, fun people, maybe number one, Russell Dickerson's dad, he's always just fun.

[C]

He's always in a good mood.

[B]

And then two is John Party until he gets way drunk.

[C]

Right?

[B]

Like, pretty junk John. Pretty drunk John Party is awesome. Buzz John when he flips, he's a big guy. He gets too, like, physical. Too rowdy for me. I'm a. And I love John. But, yeah, they're fun. All right, mine. I'll do it quick. I had a listener reach out and he goes, hey, I got a yard company in Fayetteville. Just tell me where you live in Fayetteville. I'll go check out your yard and give you a quote. And so I hit him with the address and he's like, boom, Gotcha. And so that's cool. I don't have to, like. Because I was gonna have to get Grace and he had to go take pictures of all the lawn and everything is going to be pain in the butt. But I got a listener who hit me up and he hit me up from a yard company that I know. It's a yard company because they've had a lot of pictures of yards. They didn't just change their.

[A]

But I was like, did you ask for references?

[B]

No, I didn't need to. I was just like, hey. And so he hit me up last night. He goes, just went to your house, got A quote for you. Boom. So I think we're feeling pretty good about that. Nice. I can get that yard mode in Fayetteville without having to like, because DJs not going to live there anymore. Moving to Tulsa.

[C]

Did you negotiate the quote?

[D]

Yeah. Did you barter?

[B]

I don't need to.

[C]

Why?

[A]

Where do you barter?

[C]

Always negotiate.

[B]

No, I don't need to. I'd rather. It's not.

[A]

You'd rather feel good that it's getting done?

[B]

Yep. And it's a small yard anyway and it's. It's not life changing what Dave Ramsey would say, but. Okay. If Dave Ramsey saw the stamp sized front yard that we have, I think he'd say you're okay.

[C]

Okay.

[B]

You're okay. All right. There you go. That's what it's all about. It's time for the good news with Lunchbox

[D]

Man. This is one of the craziest ones I've ever heard. From Louisville, Kentucky. There's this guy, he's working at a fast food restaurant and he decides, you know what? I gotta do something better. Gotta do something for the community. So he started this thing called Noah's Kitchen and he pays his staff, but any profit goes straight to charity, which I don't even. So in the first year, they have donated a hundred thousand dollars to local charities. So there is no profit. You get paid what you get paid. After that, all money goes away. That's crazy.

[B]

I believe that John Bon Jovi has a kitchen up near where he's from that does something very similar. Brad Paisley has like a pantry here that does something similar where the people that work there get paid, but then the food is like right at bottom price. And then a lot of it's free too. And then they donate either the food or the money they make.

[C]

Wow.

[B]

Why is it crazy to you?

[A]

It's called the store.

[D]

I don't understand how you make like.

[B]

Well, you obviously have to have money outside of this, but you're just breaking even, right? You're doing it as a give back to the community. You're not doing it for profit. This is not their only job.

[C]

The food is donated by people.

[B]

I don't know if he said no.

[D]

No, this is a restaurant. It's like a restaurant. He. It's a functioning restaurant. He buys the goods, sells the goods, and any profit he makes, he gives it to charity.

[C]

Okay, so you still save the money to buy more food?

[B]

Yes. You have to keep the business going.

[C]

Got it.

[B]

And then you pay your staff, but any profit at all gets donated Pretty cool. My assumption would be, one, great person looking out for the community. But two, this is not their only job. They're probably able to do this or

[A]

they have some sort of independent wealth.

[B]

Yes. That they're able to do this because of the other work they're doing. Like, this is their way to give back to the community.

[D]

Yeah. I mean, his name's Adam Earth sprung. And I just wonder because he said he was working at a normal fast food restaurant when he said, I got to do something different and he opened this restaurant. So maybe he owned the other fast food restaurant and got rid of it.

[B]

Well, I could have worked there, franchise 10 of them after that. There's probably a middle ground that we don't know. Like, all that could have happened. He wanted it. Yeah. JBJ's Soul Kitchen operates on a pay it forward model. This is John Bon Jovi's. With no prices on the menu. Guests who can afford to eat pay a suggested donation, typically 20 or 30 bucks. And those who are experiencing financial hardships can earn a nutritious three course meal by just volunteering their time. And then all the money just gets cycled through to keep it going.

[C]

That's so cool.

[D]

That's crazy. But, yeah, in one year, they made

[B]

saying crazy about it all.

[D]

Like, I just kiss. I can't understand how you can run something not for profit.

[C]

You just don't keep the money.

[B]

Well, it's literally a charitable endeavor.

[D]

Right. So you're just working to break even. Like, that's tough.

[B]

It's like volunteering. Volunteering. You're just working to. You're not making any money when you volunteer. It's just a larger scale volunteer operation.

[C]

He's not getting it.

[B]

That's okay. It's crazy.

[D]

It is crazy. I mean, so you're by Louisville and you want to go to Noah's Kitchen. Tell him we sent you.

[B]

That's pretty. No, no. You're not getting a 5% influencer.

[C]

Promo code.

[B]

Promo code box. All right, There you go. That's what it's all about. It's time for the good news with producer Eddie. Tell me something good, man.

[C]

There's a father and daughter, and they go to the lake in Tulsa. But that's an area in the lake where there's like a wave pool. And it's like kind of crazy current. Well, the daughter standing on a rock, she's looking out at the lake, and she slips, falls in the water. The dad freaks out. Oh, my gosh. My daughter can't swim. He jumps in. He's struggling with the currents and he's freaking out. So they're both screaming. Luckily. Reginald. Reggie. Just a dude hanging out of the lake.

[B]

Reginald. Reggie.

[C]

That's right.

[B]

So, Reggie.

[C]

Reggie.

[D]

Wow.

[B]

Go ahead.

[C]

He's at the lake, just hanging out. He hears them scream, says, I'm jumping in to save him. He goes. He grabs the little girl first. She's three years old, carries her, then gets the dad, swims back to shore, saves them both.

[B]

Double name. Got to do awesome stuff.

[C]

Reggie. Reggie. And a double save.

[B]

And a double save.

[C]

Dang, guys, this is crazy. Does it remind you of anything?

[B]

Yeah, I know what you want us to say.

[C]

No, no, just. Does it remind you of anything?

[B]

Yeah. That sometimes people put themselves second and they care about others first. That's what reminds me of.

[C]

What about, like, grabbing the kid and then grabbing the dad, then bringing him to safety?

[B]

Yeah, similar. Like he really cared. I know you want us to talk about you as a lifeguard.

[C]

My double save, Which. Guys, I don't really want to talk about it, but my son asked me the other day. He's like, hey, you're a lifeguard. Like, what about your saves? Told him about the double save. He was like, that's awesome, dad.

[A]

Why did you preface that with, guys, I don't really want to talk about this?

[D]

Because that's what people do.

[C]

Heroes don't normally talk about that kind of stuff.

[D]

But if you're gonna force him to, he's gonna talk about it, right?

[C]

Occasionally.

[A]

Or am I making this up? You've occasionally called it a triple save because. Was she pregnant?

[B]

No.

[C]

No. My total saves is three.

[B]

Yeah. Never a triple save. No, a total saves three.

[A]

Okay, well, then also fact check this part. Didn't you push her in?

[C]

No, that was the third one.

[B]

Yeah, someone in.

[A]

And then he pulled her out.

[B]

He pushed her in. Was as a joke or an accident

[C]

because she was like, you know, I can't swim, but she was like, 45. I'm like, yes, you can.

[B]

So if you're. Okay. So if you're a fireman and you light a house on fire and then you put it out, does that count as.

[D]

No.

[B]

No. Because that's what Eddie just did.

[A]

Exactly.

[C]

And that's my third save.

[B]

Yeah, it's. But you did save her.

[C]

You could.

[B]

You could have walked away.

[C]

And then my son. I told my son about that one, too. Like, did you get fired? I'm like, no. I'm lucky. I didn't, though.

[B]

He got awarded. Reginald. Reggie.

[C]

Yes.

[B]

That's a good one. That's what it's all about. That was Tell me something good.

[A]

Mom, can I have Lingokids?

[B]

That's Lingokids, please.

[C]

When did we become the Lingokids House?

[A]

No idea. Last week it was dinosaurs.

[E]

This week it was Lingokids.

[B]

Why Lingokids?

[A]

Because it's the best thing ever. We can play games with astronauts, wild animals and superheroes.
