Getting to a great idea is hard in college. Nonsensical essays, cringe inducing presentations, and seemingly unsolvable problem sets. But then the first thought becomes a final thesis. Jumbled slides transform into a polished keynote. And that midterm assignment gets a lot less mid because the road great ideas is littered with bad ones. You just have to keep going until something clicks. Great ideas start on Mac. Find out more on apple.com college I

It's time for the good news. So on Friday, whenever we finished, the show went over and did a bobbycast. We do a weekend episode that's kind of current events and we bring in somebody kind of interesting. And we brought in Brittany Kellogg. We did not know that she was on the cruise.
Amy
Oh, I worked with her on the cruise.
Bobby Bones
I know, she told us. Yeah, so I didn't know her for her music. I knew her for these insanely viral videos where she pulls the trash can down. And I'm talking about not just viral. Every single one of them doesn't get 100,000 views. It gets 60, 70, 80, 90,000 likes. They are so freaking popular. I only saw her from that. And then as I went through her page, I saw she also played music. So I said to Mike, hey, let's see if she wants to come up. She seems super funny. And so we get up on Friday to do this episode, and she's in the, like, the waiting room of the studio that we have. So whatever. She comes over. I'm like, hey, what part of town do you live in? She goes, I live in Arizona. I was like, wait, what? She goes, yeah, I live in Arizona. I said, no, you just flew here. We just asked you, like, a week ago. I booked a flight and came immediately. And so she came. And then Eddie keeps going, I know her from somewhere.
Lunchbox
The name sounded so familiar.
Bobby Bones
I don't know. The Trash videos, they're massive.
Amy
Every Tuesday, she takes the trash out,
Bobby Bones
and he's like, I don't know. And so she goes, you know, I was on the cruise with you guys. I said, what? She goes, yeah, Amy interviewed me.
Lunchbox
What?
Amy
Well, to be fair, there was a lot of things going on on the cruise at any.
Bobby Bones
I mean, I never met her. I was there for a couple days and left.
Amy
We were in a totally different.
Bobby Bones
She even said she came to the Raging Idiots show.
Lunchbox
She did.
Amy
Well, but that's a packed theater.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but the whole thing was wild. That one, she just got on a flight and flew here because she was like, I'm not going to miss this opportunity. And then two, that she was on our cruise last year, and she played shows for seven days, met you, and, like, all that happened. But I knew her from how viral her Trash video was. Not even her music. And her music is actually good. All that happened, and it's been really cool to see because people love her. And so I posted some videos with her on my Instagram, just being like, hey, it's crazy. Like, I don't know. I feel like I'm missing out on something here. It's one of those rare times where I'm going, man, I had no idea. So mine is that that was a really cool, you know, couple hours that she was over and learned her story.
Amy
And so I'm curious about the videos, which, if y' all address it, I can go listen. But.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, just go listen. Hit us back tomorrow.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Now go ahead.
Eddie
Her.
Amy
So the videos. Yes, they're so good.
Eddie
Her.
Amy
Her her insults are clever and funny. So I assume she has it all scripted out, kind of ready to go,
Bobby Bones
and then she spends time, like finding it and then writing it. But she's not reading us. I think she said she just kind of memorizes it, right?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. But she does write it.
Amy
She does write it beforehand and kind of have it.
Bobby Bones
She has to go through their pages.
Amy
Yeah, cool. Obviously a lot of it's pre meditated because. Yeah, she'll have screenshots of them or she'll be like, well, I went to your page to check stuff out and you know, if they're insulting her, whatever, and they're like, oh, funny thing, like you're in your bio. It's I love Jesus. Oh, well, what would Jesus say?
Bobby Bones
Let's look at these other things that you've done that Jesus may not like.
Amy
Right.
Bobby Bones
One was someone insulting her because her eyes were spread too far apart. And she was, she was. And she was like, let's look at your body.
Amy
She's like, I didn't know you were an expert in chromosomes. Because they said she looked like a man.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Anyway, it was good and fun and refreshing and bad. And I had no idea. And just to hear her talk about that her shows are starting to sell out now because she's touring and it's not like she's playing huge arenas or anything, but she's playing shows and that they're starting to sell out and her merch is selling. And all because of those trash videos.
Amy
That's cool. Yeah, it's just something that resonates and clicks that gets people to see her other talent.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's what I said. And afterward I said, hey, you're gonna start to be resentful. These trash videos. I said it on camera too. I said, you're gonna be resentful. These trash videos. Don't be. Because even if 93 of people don't know your music, 7% of people are finding your music through these trash videos. Because you're gonna start to get so popular from these videos that you're gonna go, this is not really what I'm doing. It's not what my whole life's about. And now people know me for this. I don't really want to be known for this. This is fun, but I don't want to be known for this. That happens. And I was just, do not let that happen. Like, fight that voice inside of you that goes, I should stop doing trash videos because my main art is music. Like, double down on the freaking trash Videos because more people will find your music from the trash videos. So it's really great. If you want to go check it out, you can. It's on the Bobbycast. It'll go up today on the BBS feed.
Amy
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Or you can watch it on Netflix. So, yeah, that's what's up. It's really cool. Refreshing even for me, who sits and talks to everybody all the time. She was very nice. So that was it. And I just felt bad she flew all the way here. I wanted to like reimburse her for her flight.
Lunchbox
You're like, stay longer.
Amy
I was like, I saw you post the clip of her talking about how when she got Mike D's message, she was at an airport going through security and that she started to tear up and like just told the person working at tsa, I just got invited to be on Bobby phones. And so for her it was just probably.
Bobby Bones
I know. I just felt bad. I don't know. I just felt bad that she bought that. You guys know how expensive flights are now.
Lunchbox
Bobby kept asking her to look, so what else are you doing here?
Eddie
Yes.
Bobby Bones
I was like, please say this is not just about this because I just never feel like it's worth that for somebody to do. But she was like, I promise you. So, yeah, that's an insecurity of mine that comes right out.
Amy
Well, that's. I was going to tell you if that is the only. If that's important enough for her. You should receive that.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I try.
Amy
Okay. That's cool. Wow.
Bobby Bones
I try. I try. She has an 18 year old son that's autistic and he can identify every single airplane that flies over by the
Amy
sound of it, which is crazy.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, crazy. Yep.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I can mostly tell you every single actor in a 90 sitcom that's. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's about mine. Yeah. Not near as cool as the airplane one. So that's my. Tell me something good, Amy. What's up with you?
Amy
So a couple of weeks ago, I started to increase my protein and started lifting. I told you I ordered those dumbbells that you can adjust adjustable. Yeah. So you can go from a five pound to fifty pounds, which. These things are so cool. And now the more that I use them because in between each exercise I kind of got to go over and adjust my dumbbell. But I've been tracking my. The weight that I'm using. And of course, when you're first starting out and you haven't done that kind of lifting in a while, I don't know what my 50% of my heaviest is. Or my head. You know, I'm just trying to figure it out, but I think I finally have it figured out. And this week I can see, like, the first. Like, I've made progress and I'm moving up, so I'm proud of myself. Like my chest. Chest press.
Bobby Bones
Like this, Like a bench press type thing.
Amy
Yeah. I went up a lot, so I could tell, like, when I first started out, I was being a little timid. I didn't want to get, like, stuck because I'm just at my house by myself, and I don't want to get stuck.
Lunchbox
But.
Bobby Bones
But they're.
Amy
It's not a bar. I know. It's dumbbells.
Bobby Bones
So you could. Yeah. Just so you know, you can. No, you don't have to jump over like you just did. You can just let them go. Oh, behind your head. Don't do like, Amy did a dump over to the side.
Amy
Well, I was.
Bobby Bones
They're individual barbells, not a bar.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Let them go separately. You will kill yourself doing the way you just did.
Amy
Well, a struggle that I am having, though, is because I still. Yesterday was, like, the heaviest I had done with that to get down on the ground. Because I don't have a bench yet. I think I need to invest in a bench. I was just doing on the floor, but I'm on the floor and I've got them on the floor and then. But I need to, like, get them and then lay down. And so I get up and I'm
Bobby Bones
like, can I give you a tip?
Amy
Sure. I'll take anything.
Bobby Bones
Put them on your knees. You're on the ground. Put them on your knees. Lift your knees and put them here because you'll hurt your shoulders or your wrists, like doing what you're doing.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Because it's a weird body position to try to lift your weights up from just on the ground with your arms.
Amy
Very like how you're looking. That's what. And that's what's made me a little nervous. The last time I lifted any kind of heavy weights or anything, I was working with the trainer, and this was before COVID So I do feel like I'm having to. I don't want to hurt myself, and I'm having to learn, so I'll take any.
Bobby Bones
A bench would be good. There's something called floor press, though, that even I do. So what you're doing is actually a lift. But when you. When you lay down, like, pull your knee, put your knees down, put on your legs, and then lift your knees and put them here.
Amy
Gotcha.
Bobby Bones
And then you won't hurt your shoulders by trying to.
Amy
Because.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's a weird.
Amy
All right, well, my next investment, my first investment was the dumbbells. And now that I'm actually using them and I'm seeing growth, I'm like, I'm gonna keep doing it. So I guess my next treat will be. Treat? Like are these ads?
Bobby Bones
They call it a treat, not a treat. The treat is after you're done though, and you feel good about it.
Amy
Yeah, well, I. Well, for me, I like seeing the growth and the progress. And then now I'm like, maybe one day I will be able to make it to the 25 push ups.
Bobby Bones
For sure you will. You're already so close.
Amy
And that was before I was even.
Bobby Bones
You're gonna nail it. But you're gonna need to do push ups by themselves, not just that specific weight or movement.
Amy
True.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's good.
Amy
Uh huh. And with the weights. Yeah. Speaking of protein, Eddie, I have been, I've been trying to log at least that. Not really much of anything else, but just tracking my protein intake. And I've been pretty diligent at meeting my goal every single day, which is more difficult than you.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it starts to feel uncomfortable to
Amy
where you're just like, really? But I hear it will make such a difference.
Lunchbox
What's the goal? You bodybuilding? Like, what's the. What are we trying to do?
Amy
No, at 80, when I fall over, I don't want to go be stuck in a nursing home or hospital.
Lunchbox
It's a good goal.
Eddie
Yeah, that is a good goal.
Amy
This is for longevity. Like, I'm not, I. I really don't. It's not a vanity thing. It's not a. It's just. I mean, sure, if there's benefits that come with it that are like that, okay, great. But I just want to be strong and take care of myself because I've been doing Pilates, which this weekend I hit 100 classes, which was really cool, but that's just not cutting it enough. Like, I need to start lifting. More significant.
Bobby Bones
We were gonna go do hot yoga last week and my wife got such crazy food poisoning.
Amy
Oh, is that what happened with that? I mean, I knew she was sick, but I was wondering what was going on with the yoga.
Bobby Bones
That was it. That's when I had to leave. I was like, gotta go, guys. Because she had the baby and was just like, I can't. I can't even sit up. And so.
Lunchbox
And I was like, thank God I'm not doing that today
Bobby Bones
you're telling me something good.
Lunchbox
Okay. So for me, football season has officially started Saturday. My 11 year old is now playing tackle football and they had their first. What do they call it, a jamboree or something? You know what a jamboree is?
Bobby Bones
Watch teams go and play each other, like for quarters, a quarter at a time. Yes.
Lunchbox
It's like a scrimmage, I guess. They all play offensive snaps, like 20 in a row, and then they switch sides and they do 20 in a row.
Bobby Bones
It.
Lunchbox
It's just so much fun. The weather was great. It was early in the morning. All the parents were excited, wearing their school clothes, you know, like with a team. And then there maybe there'd be a good tackle in the whole stadium would be like, yeah. And these are 11 year olds. And I just. I don't know, man. I get so excited because football, like Cowboys and all that, is just right around the corner and this is just the start of it.
Bobby Bones
So this leads you in the Cowboys? Oh, yeah, yeah, I got it.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Like, the feeling of just watching kids play football is now, like, exciting me because I know that the Cowboys are going to start playing on Sundays in like three weeks, four weeks, whatever it is, dude, I cannot wait.
Bobby Bones
I'm glad your son can get you excited about the Cowboys. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, not the whole season of your son learning.
Eddie
Yeah. Not that.
Bobby Bones
It's more.
Lunchbox
Here's the deal.
Bobby Bones
Will Dak do it this year?
Lunchbox
I don't think that he's gonna last. Like, he's excited to play football and I think every kid is like, all right, tackle football. My friends are doing it. Let's see how it goes. When the everything was over and we were in the car, I asked him, like, how did it go? He's like, that was a lot harder than I thought. I can't run as fast as I thought I could run. It's hard to catch the ball in pads. I can't see through the face mask. I don't know how this is going to go, so I don't know if he's going to last. We'll see.
Bobby Bones
Are you going to make him last though the season? Okay, got it.
Lunchbox
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He'll play the rest of the year, but I just don't know if he's going to love football that much to play next year.
Bobby Bones
Lunchbox.
Eddie
Yeah. We had to tear down a tree in our backyard because it was old and falling down, you know, ice storm. And so my kids wanted to do a garden, so we put some bricks up and I was like, this is never going to last. We planted some cucumbers, bell peppers. And I was like, we're never going to do anything. Well, this weekend we actually got cucumbers. We went out there, and there were huge cucumbers in the garden. Now we do nothing to maintain it. We've just had a lot of rain. So we got lucky, and they are so excited. So we picked cucumbers out of our own garden. I've never done that in my life.
Lunchbox
Did you eat them?
Eddie
No, not yet. They're just in the fridge.
Amy
That's cool, though.
Lunchbox
It's pretty amazing. They're big.
Eddie
Oh, they're huge. I mean, I'm talking this big. Like, boom.
Amy
That's huge.
Bobby Bones
Hey, he's been told.
Eddie
Hey, just let him.
Lunchbox
Hey, Amy, that's.
Bobby Bones
He's been told that's huge.
Eddie
I don't know what you're dealing with, Amy, but you must be dealing with.
Lunchbox
He likes that.
Bobby Bones
Hey, he's been told. That's huge. So let him. Let him go with it. Okay.
Eddie
All right.
Bobby Bones
Okay. I look at you. Got a little family green down there.
Eddie
I mean, it's all nature. We did nothing to it.
Lunchbox
You planted the seeds, right?
Eddie
Yes, but we haven't watered it once. Like, literally, just. We've had so much rain, it's funny.
Bobby Bones
Oh, well, okay. Rain.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
We're not.
Bobby Bones
We haven't watered it once. You're right. There's been a lot of rain. That's good. All right, Good job, everybody. Everybody, good weekend.
Amy
Good.
Bobby Bones
Fine.
Lunchbox
Good.
Bobby Bones
All right, good. We're gonna do a little celeb on the head here between Amy and myself. We're not gonna say who it is until the very end, but listen to this. Enjoy. See if you can name who it is. Bones, you won. You go first.
Amy

Yes.
Amy
For mostly. No to.
Bobby Bones
I have to answer yes to it.

Amy
Okay. Can I dance?
Bobby Bones
I don't know.
Amy
Okay. You would know if.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I mean, I don't know.
Amy
So I don't do choreographed.

Amy
Not the one I first know you from.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Amy
Am I American?
Bobby Bones
Yes. Who'd you have?
Amy
It just helps if I'm not. The pond is smaller if I leave America.
Bobby Bones
Okay, okay, okay. Okay. So I have one show that you know this person from that most people would know the person from. I'm a female actress over 40. Do I have blonde hair?
Amy
Yes.
Bobby Bones
I'm not from the 90s, though. Like. Like, primarily known as a show from the 90s. Okay.
Amy
Am I over 50?
Bobby Bones
No. Okay, so what does that do for you?
Amy
I'm. I'm in between 40 and 50. Means I'm my age.
Bobby Bones
Are you guessing it's you?
Amy
No. Okay, but
Bobby Bones
do you have someone in mind?
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
Okay. If I'm blonde, I'm an actress. I'm over 40. I'm gonna have to know who it is. There's gotta be somebody famous. Is my show known from NBC?
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
God dang. There's only one more network. I'm the last on this. Now there's two more networks? No, there's more than that. God dang it.
Amy
Ooh. Do I play an instrument?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Yes, absolutely.
Amy
Okay. Not all singers do. Do I play guitar? Let me be.
Bobby Bones
You already said, do you play an instrument? I'm gonna answer yes. And you're right. Not all singers do. You're right.
Amy
Yes. Thank you.
Bobby Bones
Sorry. The answer is yes.
Amy
Apology accepted,
Bobby Bones
Cbs?
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
See, that's why I'm stupid.
Amy
Do I have a beard?
Bobby Bones
No.
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
Am I married to somebody famous?
Amy
Yes.
Bobby Bones
I'm so bad at this game.
Amy
So do I have a solo career?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I'm over 40 and I'm married to somebody famous, and I'm from a television show, and it's not. I have to just chase this, and I'M wasting everybody's time. Fox? No, those are the four networks. Now it's gonna be cable. I'm not guessing anymore because there's a hundred cable networks. I should have never done that.
Amy
Am I married?
Bobby Bones
No. Who'd you have it on? I don't have anybody in my head.
Amy
Well, I already. I already don't have a beard, so I'm not Zach Brown Band. But he. You literally debated if he was in a band, and his band is Zach Brown Band. So it's not him.
Bobby Bones
I didn't debate if he was in a band. I just didn't know what. How to answer that question.
Amy
And I didn't because I now know I also have a solo career. That's why.
Bobby Bones
That's it. Am I funny?
Amy
Yes.
Bobby Bones
I'm a comedic actress. Over 40 with a. I didn't say
Amy
you were a comedic actress.
Bobby Bones
You said.
Amy
I said you're funny. But I don't know what category they would fall into with their roles. I'd say as a person, you're funny. Am I in country music?
Bobby Bones
I would like for you to ask that question a little more specific. And if you can't, then that's just the answer that I'll give you.
Amy
Do I have music that has been played in the country genre?
Bobby Bones
Yes. I don't even know.
Amy
But he dances.
Lunchbox
Huh?
Amy
I'm talking to myself.
Bobby Bones
Me too. I. I just, I played. I played this game and I just can't even put you. I can't even. I'm nowhere closer in my mind. Like, I don't have anybody in my mind that this could even be.

Oh, that's good.
Amy
Because Justin. But Justin's also married, so that would
Bobby Bones
put me on Jessica Beal on my head. But she's a movie star too. She's from not. She lives in the South. That'd be crazy if it's Jessica Bill. But you thought it might be Justin Timberlake. Jessica Bill's a movie.
Amy
Oh, she started in TV though. 7th heaven.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but I would. Neither here nor there is Jessica Beal.
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
Son of a gun. That have been their greatest walk in. Go ahead.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Because she's also married to somebody famous.
Amy
Am I white?
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Amy
Dang it, I'm white.
Bobby Bones
Do I do sitcoms?
Amy
I don't think so.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Amy
I wouldn't.
Bobby Bones
Because in my head I was trying to think of a sitcom, so I got to get out of that. So, like hour long dramas type shows. No laugh, no laugh track or.
Amy
But now you're asking two questions.
Bobby Bones
No, but that's what a sitcom is to me, though.
Amy
Oh.
Bobby Bones
It is a 30 minute comedy with a studio audience.
Amy
There's no studio audience.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Okay.
Amy
Do I have blonde hair?
Bobby Bones
No.
Amy
And I'm white. Oh, my God.
Bobby Bones
Do I also do movies?
Amy
Yeah.
Eddie
Do
Amy
have. Have. Do I have a song that we've played working in radio? Have we played my song?
Lunchbox
What?
Amy
Like, have we played my song on the radio?
Bobby Bones
Like you're talking as the person not your got it.
Amy
Yes, I am me. Yes, we have played my song on the radio.
Bobby Bones
Does this person live in Nashville?
Amy
Yep.
Bobby Bones
Still have no idea. But that does limit the box a little bit. Oh, wait, no, but she also does move. I got it.
Amy
You know, Shoot.
Bobby Bones
I think.
Amy
Is it my turn or your turn?
Bobby Bones
It's your turn.
Amy
Oh, man. I just.
Bobby Bones
At least I have my first guess.
Amy
I have nothing. I'm in a band. Sorta solo career. Pop, but country. We played my song. I'm between 40 and 50. I'm a guy. I'm single. I don't have a beard. I don't have blonde hair. I'm American man.
Bobby Bones
Good memory.
Amy
I'm. Okay. Who am I?
Bobby Bones
I think I'm gonna win.
Amy
I think you are. So I just had to go. Oh, man. Pull from the dome. I'm not. I'm not. No. I'm white. I'm white. I'm not. I'm not Neo.
Bobby Bones
I never win. I think I'm gonna win.
Amy
I'm not Nelly dang it. Tim McCroll. Who sings I can't. No. Tim McCroll's over 50 now. I'm all jumbled in my head. I have. Okay, what if you don't have yours? I need to ask a pressing question, but what is the. I was in a group, and now I'm. But I have solo stuff and I'm young. I'm young. And we've played.
Bobby Bones
Mm.
Amy
I don't know.
Bobby Bones
At some point you gotta poop or get off the pot, you know?
Amy
Oh, have. Have I been in studio with us? Yes, I have been in studio. Oh, I'm going to shoot myself. Not really.
Bobby Bones
Am I Nicole Kidman?
Amy
No. Yes.
Bobby Bones
Oh, my God. No, I have no idea. Who I am.
Amy
Okay. Wow. I thought you were going to get it. I can calm down now.
Bobby Bones
I was. So for sure I was going to get it.
Amy
Am I? I have been in studio, but they
Bobby Bones
live in Nashville and they are famous and they're married to somebody famous and they have blonde hair and they're known for a TV show
Amy
and they.
Bobby Bones
I don't know who it is. Now,
Amy
I have been in the studio and I was in a band, but I have solo work and I'm my age. Ish. And I'm single. So do I. I mean, if I don't have blonde hair, I have brown hair. This is like a wasted question.
Bobby Bones
I wasted a question saying, am I Jessica Biel?
Amy
Are you. Do you have a good relationship with me? This person on my head, I don't
Bobby Bones
have a bad one, but I don't. I don't know what that means.
Amy
It means like, you have a friendly relationship. Like, do you have their phone number?
Bobby Bones
No. Who acted? So I would think, like. But Kimberly Paisley does not have blonde hair, but she's father of the bride. And I thought Nicole Kidman, she has a bunch of TV shows, movie actors, and it. It's not going to be Reese Witherspoon because she's movie actress first and I don't even know who she's married to.
Amy
She's not married right now.
Bobby Bones
Exactly. Jessica Bill lives here with Timberlake, but it's not her. I asked her.
Amy
I don't dare.
Bobby Bones
Is her husband in music?
Amy
No, they both live. Do I live in nashville?
Bobby Bones
No, The only other person I know that would live here, but. Okay, so Leanne Rhymes does that show 911, but she's music first. Does this person sing as well?
Amy
I don't know.
Bobby Bones
But not known as a singer as well. Son of a gun. Who would be an actress that lives here, though?
Amy
Oh, my gosh. We're going to be here all day.
Bobby Bones
Is driving you guys crazy? No, it's not there. Not to that point yet.
Amy
What about mine? Is it driving you crazy? Driving me crazy?
Bobby Bones
I was asking about both of ours as. As a unit.
Amy
I feel like the fact that my person we have met, it is driving me crazy. And, like, because I have no. I have no reference of a band, pop going country. I mean, those are big clues. Huge. And I.
Bobby Bones
Do you feel like I've been misleading in any way?
Lunchbox
No.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Amy
It's like Adam Levine, but he doesn't have anything country. I've never. He's never been in studio. See? Okay. Was I in the studio in our new Studio?
Bobby Bones
No.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Have I ever met this person?
Amy
I don't think so. Our old studio, they came in.
Bobby Bones
I'm an actress. I'm over 40. I live in Nashville. That's the thing that's killing me. I'm married to somebody else that's famous, but I'm not in music. So it's two actors. What? Two actors live together here, are married here. You're up.
Amy
Am I joey fatone?
Bobby Bones
No.
Amy
Oh.
Bobby Bones
Am I over 50?
Amy

Amy
Do I have dreads?
Bobby Bones

Amy

Amy
What the.
Bobby Bones
I know multiple bands.
Amy
Multiple Bands.
Bobby Bones
Does my name start with a B?
Amy
No. So why in the traveling circus? What? Multiple bands and solo work and multiple bands? What? What is this some sort of a weird. Like, I keep thinking everybody I'm thinking of that's like that they're way too old. Like a. Like a Willie Nelson, you know, he's like the. The highwayman, you know, Something like that. And then Willie and Waylon and the boys. Not. Not someone who's in their 40s. Oh, my gosh. Oh, wait. I was going to ask if I was alive.

Lunchbox
What was the network question? Like what?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, what show was she?
Amy
Cw. Veronica Mars. Right.
Bobby Bones
Good Places on NBC.
Amy
But that wasn't their original.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, he was Asking where she.
Amy
I accept your answer because also she has her show on Netflix that's very popular.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah. And she's been in movies.
Amy
But I, I, I was, I clarified the original show.
Bobby Bones
But when I said does she do the voice of an animated character from a Disney movie?
Amy
You said no, you didn't ask me that.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I meant to sing really well.
Amy
Oh, I, I said I don't know if she sings. I don't know.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I think you're right on that because yeah, that's what I meant. But she did sing Frozen, right? Didn't she do that song? Yeah. Okay. You didn't miss.
Amy
Yeah, that was more like I do
Bobby Bones
they live live here now.
Amy
Somebody find out where their kids go to school.
Bobby Bones
I've seen them at the airport 1. You have seen them?
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
That's cool. I'm not disputing it at all. You win.
Amy
So I saw her doing an interview and that's where she was talking about like her flying home to Nashville.
Bobby Bones
Good one. Amy wins again. I think she's like 7 and 2. Good job. It's time for the good news with Bobby. Tell me something good. A 10 year old girl in Virginia hero rescued a 3 year old from a campground pool. Vivian Taylor spotted the toddler in the water, wasn't moving, jumped in, grabs her, pulls her out. They get her, get her to the hospital real quick. She's now fully recovered, been released, but she saw it and just jumped into action. She wasn't trained to do that. But we do have a lifeguard here as part of our show. Coming to you. Special thoughts.
Lunchbox
No, I think that's great. Did I ever tell you guys about the when I was 2 and my cousin found me in the pool.
Bobby Bones
So you're no longer the lifeguard in the story, you're the one that's saved in this story.
Lunchbox
I was the victim. Yeah. I was face down in the pool and my cousin saw me. He jumped in the water, saved me and then he said I was laughing, like giggling, like having the time of my life.
Bobby Bones
Was there any chance that you just got in the water?
Lunchbox
I might have just gotten in there, but they had no idea. Like they just saw me, head face down, floating in the water.
Bobby Bones
Pretty fortunate then.
Lunchbox
Yeah. But as a lifeguard, I mean that is this person right here, this girl. Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
10 year old Vivian Taylor.
Lunchbox
10 year old Vivian Taylor, she has a future in lifeguarding.
Bobby Bones
You think so?
Lunchbox
She already has the God given instinct
Bobby Bones
and you've lived it and now you're looking out for the Next generation.
Lunchbox
I mean, I kind of just. I notice it when I hear it.
Bobby Bones
What about your kids? Do they, like, genetically, do they. Are they pulled to be in lifeguards?
Lunchbox
Yeah. One of them already has expressed interest in being a lifeguard.
Bobby Bones
I think that's just natural ingrained.
Lunchbox
I think it just kind of fell down the gene pool.
Bobby Bones
That's from whsv. Vivian Taylor, you are a hero. That's what it's all about.
Amy
That was.
Bobby Bones
Tell me something good. It's time for the good news with Lunchbox.
Eddie
A West Georgia couple was on a road trip on Interstate 20 when boom. Tire blew out. They had to pull over to the side of the road, get the spare out, and they get their jack. Jack's not working. Something's wrong with it. Won't lift the car high enough. Well, luckily, all these cars are whizzing by. They're like, man, we're stranded. Here comes the angel. Rodney pulls up in his truck.
Bobby Bones
Rodney the angel. Never heard an angel named Rodney.
Eddie
And he says, you guys need some help? He pulls out the tools from his truck, jacks up the car, changes the tire, and they said, here, let us give you some money. And Rodney said, nope. In my spare time, I drive around these roads looking for people stranded so I can help them out. That's my calling.
Bobby Bones
And then they turned around and he was gone. He was nowhere to be seen.
Lunchbox
He's gone.
Bobby Bones
His car was gone. He was gone. And they were like. Was anyone even here?
Lunchbox
Rodney the Road Angel.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah. Alliteration.
Lunchbox
It works.
Bobby Bones
Otherwise, not. Not really the angel name I choose. As if I were an angel.
Eddie
Good for all.
Bobby Bones
Rodney. You know what? Rodney is the name of, like, a good guy, though.
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Like, that's. That's. That's the name of a good Gary. It's a good guy name.
Lunchbox
I don't know. A bad Rodney.
Amy
Like, how many. Rodney. Rodney Atkins.
Lunchbox
Does rod count?
Bobby Bones
You know, it can.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Debatable if he's good or bad, but. Yeah, we know. Yeah, Rodney feels like a good name.
Amy
Gary Levox.
Bobby Bones
No, just like, guys, I grew up around Mountain Pine, around Orchid, Just Gary's. Then you get to names like Sean, you can't really trust Hit or miss.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Hit or miss.
Amy
Shady. Sean.
Bobby Bones
Sean's Ronnie Dangerfield. Hey, I get no respect. I get no respect. All right. Good story. That is what it's all about.
Amy
That was.
Bobby Bones
Tell me something good, Bones. Okay. In case you missed it, but you probably didn't. I had Kristen Bell. Amy had John Mayer. That was a very frustrating round of celeb on the head.

Honestly, Honestly, Honestly. No one wants to think about hiv, but there are things that everyone can do to help prevent it. Things like prep. PREP stands for Pre Exposure Prophylaxis and it means routinely taking prescription medicine before you're exposed to HIV to help reduce your chances of getting it. Prep can be about 99% effective when taken as prescribed. It doesn't protect against other STIs, though, so be sure to use condoms and other healthy sex practices.
