They start with a soil test and climate data to build a yard plan tailored to where you live, then ship everything directly to your door. No guesswork, no dragging bags of fertilizer, and instead of harsh chemicals, Sundae uses simple, nutrient dense ingredients like seaweed, molasses and iron. Everything hooks up to a hose, which honestly sounds like my speed. If your yard feels more stressful than satisfying, Sunday's approach makes a lot of sense.

I hit a scratch off for like 200 bucks.
Scuba
That's good.
Amy
How much was the scratch off?
Bobby
50. But I don't know where it is. And this happened right before we had the baby, so I think I gotta go find it. Huh? But I did hit and I know it's somewhere I didn't lose. I didn't throw it away.
Scuba
Do you think it's in your car?
Bobby
No.
Scuba
Did you scratch in your car?
Bobby
I scratched it on the counter in the house. But I just remember because, like, I wonder what happened. My days have been a blur and not in a bad way. They just have all been like the day before. Here's the thing about a newborn. I would compare it to a long road trip because you don't know why you're tired at the end of the day because you really didn't do much. But you just had to stay so focused, even if it's not. You're not consciously being focused, that you're just exhausted. Like, I've been sleeping really hard through the night.
Amy
That's good.
Bobby
Which is great.
Amy
Turns out all you needed was a newborn.
Scuba
Oh, that's it.
Amy
This whole life, no problem, needed a newborn.
Bobby
So I've never experienced a newborn. But she doesn't do much. It's a cycle. It's a two and a half hour cycle of feed. No, no change. Because we have to wake her up to feed her because she will go to sleep while feeding constantly. We have to constantly wake her up. In the middle of eating.
Scuba
She'll just.
Bobby
And then go. Then fall asleep. So change that wakes her up, feed, then back to sleep. And that's the cycle. Every two and a half hours. And it's constant. You just always have to be aware. And I'm not comfortable enough now to not make. To not make sure that she's breathing all the time. Like I'll just have to look and just like stare at her stomach to make sure it's going up and down. And I'm sure she's fine. But it's very new.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby
You know what I mean?
Amy
Yeah. I mean, not exactly I know what you mean. But I have not experienced it myself other than you know, I was a nanny in high school, which would be crazy. I cared for babies.
Bobby
Like leave again we this baby two weeks old.
Scuba
Right.
Bobby
To leave the newborn. You don't leave newborns with nannies, do you?
Amy
I mean, I guess it just depends
Bobby
on how were you a nanny with a new. I can't imagine leaving our baby. Okay, so let that small.
Amy
Okay, let me clarify, let me clarify. This was a very. They have. Claire clearly had resources, this family. In my senior year of high school, I only had to be at school from like 8 to noon. And then I didn't have to be back till 4pm for cheerleading. So from like 12:30 to 3:30 I went and every day, Monday through Friday, I went and helped the mom because she had a three year old and then newborn.
Bobby
That makes a lot of sense if it was just you being left with a newborn in high school.
Amy
Yeah.
Scuba
What with an 18 year old, like
Amy
I was just an extra set of hands because she had twins and a three year old. So it was like got it very. But I did a lot of diaper changing and a lot of just holding and hanging and yeah. Grocery store runs, whatever. That nanny sometimes can come in and just fill roles at the house while the mom is with the baby too.
Bobby
Yeah. When you said you had seen the same thing with a newborn, I was thinking as a high schooler, someone just left a baby with you.
Amy
Well, and then also my sister had four babies that I was the aunt and cared for. But I guess, yeah, the 24 hours a day kind of thing. Like I don't. You're making me want to experience it though. Yeah.
Bobby
What do you get?
Amy
You get honestly, your baby's so cute, it's making me want.
Bobby
I hear you.
Amy
A baby.
Bobby
Here's the other thing that I wonder because I've said this. I think if you have a baby, everybody has to talk about how cute the baby is regardless. It could be an alien Goonies sure type baby and people be like, people like that baby. Look what a cute baby. People have to say that.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby
So in my mind, I don't have any attachment to our baby being cuter than everybody else's in Gen pop because everybody has to say that. Just like if the comparison I've made many times is if you come in Amy and you have a bob haircut. Now let's say we all think it's ugly. We still have to acknowledge it because it's such a drastic change that we have to go, oh wow, your hair looks great because it's so drastic. And we're not gonna go, oh, your hair looks terrible. And the baby is such a change that you have to acknowledge, oh, your baby's so cute. The same way we'd have to be like, amy, your bob looks great.
Amy
No, your baby really is cute.
Bobby
I feel like you guys are just doing that in the eyes.
Amy
I don't know if I'm obsessed with it because it's you and Caitlyn's baby, or if. Or if I saw it, I mean, I don't think I would be like, I look at it and I'm like, I can't. This is just. She's so stinking cute. Like, if I saw her in public, I'd be like, oh, she's cute. But I wouldn't think more about her. But because it's y'. All, it's like, she's so cute. And I just want to, like, you know, scoop her up.
Scuba
And like, to your point, you'd say it one time, right? Like, oh, you're so cute. And then that's it.
Amy
Yeah, you let it go.
Scuba
If they're not cute, you let it go, dude. That's it. But she's so beautiful that you keep
Bobby
saying, okay, but when you say that, I don't. She's so cute. I think she has a lot of hair. That's a big benefit.
Amy
No, but her lips and her eyebrows and her nose and her ears.
Bobby
Eyes.
Amy
Yeah. She's so cute.
Scuba
She's so cute, man.
Amy
Like, I. I was sent my daughter a video of her yesterday, and then my daughter's like, oh, my go. I'm obsessed. Like, we're obsessed.
Bobby
I saw your daughter comment on the Instagram. We put up.
Amy
Oh, what'd she say?
Bobby
Just something random and generic. But then everybody was commenting under it, like, hey, Sashira.
Amy
Yeah. No, she's.
Bobby
Is she not going by diamond anymore?
Amy
No.
Bobby
Good.
Scuba
That's good.
Amy
Yeah, the therapist was right. Just ignore it. Let it go, and it'll. You know, I mean, it was about a two year thing, but eventually it phased out.
Bobby
It was two years at school.
Amy
At school only.
Scuba
Even teachers. Like, everyone's calling her Diamond.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby
You get to pick your name as a kid.
Amy
Yes.
Bobby
Oh, man. If they'd allow me do that, what
Scuba
would you have done?
Amy
Well, they have a preference card when you get to school. Like, you put your name and what would you prefer to be called? And that's what she did. I only. I only found out she was doing that because of a teacher, because she was joining a extracurricular, like, club and the men the leader, the teacher that headed up the club. Like, I emailed her to pay the dues and she was like, I don't see a Stashira Brown on my list. And then she goes. She emailed me back later. She goes, oh, you're talking about Diamond. And I go, am I?
Scuba
That's crazy.
Amy
Who. Who's Diamond? And then other like, her friends, parents that I was just now meeting, like her new friends, they'd be like, can diamond come over for. To hang for a little bit? And I'm like, I don't know. Can she? Like, it's weird.
Bobby
If they'd have given me autonomy of my name, they'd have been like, corliss here.
Amy
What? Corliss? What does that mean?
Bobby
Corliss Williamson. He was a Razorback basketball player. We won the national championship in 94.
Amy
Oh, okay.
Bobby
I'd have for sure changed my name to Corliss.
Scuba
Yeah.
Amy
Okay. Yeah.
Bobby
Well, you had kids. Eddie been. Jordan?
Scuba
Oh, for sure. I think.
Bobby
Garth, maybe. Garth Garcia.
Scuba
Brooks Garcia,
Bobby
I think. So my good is going to be. I know I have a lottery ticket that I haven't brought mentioned yet. And it's up in the house. It's 200 bucks. It's pretty excited because it was a 4 times 50 winner or it was a 5 times 40 winner. One of those. That's one. And we went for a walk yesterday as my wife is recuperating. We go a little further each time and so we went on another walk. We go to school around here. That's all.
Amy
Yeah. Now y' all can do that because you, like have a kid with you. You're not like adults at a school with no kid.
Scuba
But a couple walking into school's not a big deal.
Bobby
Well, but it's not. And there's nobody at the school unless
Scuba
you're like a single dude by yourself. That's weird.
Amy
Okay, fine.
Bobby
I don't like walk, so I would never do that anyway. I'm not a walk guy. Amy, you tell me something good.
Amy
Okay. So kid wise, mine's about my son. He had previously. His mile record was like 5:15, I think. And his goal is to break five. He really wants to do that this track season. And he hit 5:12. But here's where I messed up as a mom. Also, the tell me something good is. This is a little story of forgiveness. I was really irritated cause it was a race and he forgot his running shoes, which are like these little. They're tiny cleats, but they're lightweight. They help. He forgot his and we were 25, 30 minutes from home, so. So I wasn't going to be able to go back. And I was like, okay, fine, whatever. He. So he ran in his normal, like, Brooks running shoes, which is all fine and dandy, but those shoes are heavier. They slow you down.
Bobby
He trains in the Brooks running shoes.
Amy
He'll train in those, but at a race day, he'll run in those. Every other kid that was racing had their racing shoes on. And it was. Whoever was leading the pack must have just been challenging everybody. Like, I don't know what school that kid was from, but it was. Everybody was getting PRs. Because when you have someone that's faster, you go faster. And I saw him struggling and I'm like, it's the dang shoes. He still got a pr. But then as a mom, I was so frustrated. Cause he could have gotten, like, he probably could have gotten 507 or something. And I was so irritated that, you know, you got one responsibility walking out the door, you need. Or two, you need your uniform and your cleats. And I was mad at myself because I should have double checked. But also, he's old enough where he should know. And I mean, I got a little heated in public. Nobody saw, but he thinks people saw me getting upset, frustrated. And he's like, I got a pr, like, just be happy for me. And I'm like, I am happy for you. But I overreacted for sure. And then now he's embarrassed that kids at school saw that. And then so I had to say, you're right, I should have waited. He's like, if you would have just waited till we got in the car. And I'm like, okay, you're right. I should have waited. And then also, I shouldn't have even made it a thing. Like, he'll learn his lesson. He knows he could have gone faster. He'll remember the shoes next time. But it's like, I've never had a kid, like, really good at sports before. And now I kind of feel like I. I had like a hint of, like, sports parent.
Bobby
You gotta get the taste.
Scuba
Yeah.
Amy
I'm like, you have so much potential and you want to break five, like, that's your one goal. And like, you should have. Like, he just was sort of acting like it wasn't that big of a deal. And it was like, to me, it was a big deal. I mean, because honestly, I was never really good at sports either.
Scuba
Oh, I thought you were good. Switch hitter.
Bobby
No. Ambidextrous.
Scuba
And that's it.
Bobby
Yeah.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby
Up until, like, fourth grade.
Scuba
Free throw shooter.
Amy
Well, yeah, I think they would put me in last minute because, yeah, I could bat left or right to throw off the pitcher, but, I mean, we had to be winning.
Bobby
She was the distraction technique on the team.
Amy
Yeah. So anyways, I had to ask for forgiveness, and he said he needed time to think about it, and I gave him that space. And then the next morning, he forgave me. And I was proud of him, too. Like, this is. Tell me something good as a mom. Like, you want your kids to, like, know what they're feeling and speak what they need. And he's like, mom, really what I need is just space from you right now. And I was like, I love that you know that. Let me give you space.
Scuba
That's healthy.
Amy
That is so healthy for a kid to do that.
Bobby
It's healthy, but feels jarring if. If your kids, like, I need space from you.
Amy
It is. But you want your kid to know that that's great. The fact that as a teenager and that I can be like, you know what?
Morgan
You're not wrong.
Amy
Like, I need to give you space. So I walked away. And then the next morning, we revisited it, and he was like, okay, I feel better now. I get it. I should have remembered my cleats. And I know you didn't mean to react that way. It's because you care, and I'm. I forgive you. And I was like, ah, perfect.
Bobby
I'm dreading the day when my baby says, I need space.
Scuba
And you gotta be like, wow, that's so healthy.
Bobby

Scuba
I started working out again.
Bobby
I thought you said you never stopped.
Scuba
No, no, but like, I went to, like, I lifted weights. Like last week I went four days. Yesterday I went again. I've been sore. It kind of like it hurts. But I'm back a little bit and I don't know, I'm not to the point where like, I'm going to like push myself to get bigger or whatever, but like the fact that I'm just lifting weights all on my own I think is a good thing.
Bobby
How long will this last?
Scuba
Don't, don't tear me down. I just started, guys.
Amy
Let's give it, I don't know, four gym visits.
Scuba
No, I've already done four. So four more.
Amy
Sure, four more. Give or take one or two.
Scuba
I mean, I did kind of. I did feel like, man, I'm so sore. Like, oh, I don't want to go back.
Bobby
But hey, good for you. If you can keep going without someone pushing you, that's great.
Amy
Okay, after these weightlifting sessions. Are you eating protein?
Bobby
No.
Amy
Okay. You're wasting.
Scuba
I mean, I'm eating like meat, but I'm not doing like protein. I'm not doing protein shakes or anything.
Amy
No, meat is protein.
Scuba
Yeah, but I eat meat every day.
Bobby
Are you doing cardio? No, but I'm running. That's what Eddie Just hit us with.
Scuba
I feel like you guys are talking about, like, extra protein.
Amy
No.
Morgan
And no.
Amy
We're saying, like, what I have learned, especially as we've aged, something I was doing wrong for a long time is like, I would work out and then I wasn't intentional. Like within the 30 minutes to an hour after my workout, giving my body protein so my muscles can, like, do something with it. Otherwise it's just. It's like a waste of time.
Scuba
No way. So after my workout, I eat a steak.
Amy
Sure, whatever. However you want to get.
Scuba
I didn't think about that.
Bobby
You're also not going to get bigger anymore at this stage in life.
Amy
But he's gonna at least build, like, keep the muscle.
Bobby
Yeah, but he's like, I'm not trying to do it to get bigger.
Scuba
Well, when we were working out with a trainer, like, we were getting bigger, like, I would. That was the biggest I've ever been in my life.
Amy
You mean like, muscle wise?
Scuba
Yeah, like my legs, like, comfort, like my pants, like my jeans were tight. That's never happened in my life.
Amy
Interesting.
Scuba
So. And that was. I was what, 46? 45. 46. So yeah, I can still get bigger. I feel like if I wanted to.
Bobby
But working out with the trainer, that, when we were doing it was extremely intense. You're not going to put yourself through workouts.
Scuba
No, because when I'm tired, I'm like, I'm good.
Bobby
Yeah. I hope you continue it.
Scuba
Feels good.
Bobby
Yeah.
Scuba
Feels good to be back in the gym.
Bobby
Bottle it up.
Scuba
I feel like you're doubting me.
Bobby
No, we're just basing our feelings on the wealth of information we have gathered over the last 15 years or so. Being your friend with me.
Scuba
Yeah, you know what helps too, is my son. Like, my son goes to the gym too. So if we can keep each other accountable and go together, that'd be.
Bobby
That's a big part of it.
Scuba
That would be helpful.
Bobby
Yeah.
Scuba
Good.
Bobby
All seriousness. That's awesome.
Scuba
Good luck. Thank you.
Bobby
All right, lunchbox. Give me something good.
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah, we went on a cruise and I came home and I had my suitcase and it just laid there and laid there and laid there. And yesterday I finally unpacked, put the clothes in the dirty laundry, put the suitcase away in the closet. So it is not laying on my bedroom floor anymore. I am done with the cruise.
Bobby
Your wife didn't tell you to do it though?
Lunchbox
Oh, she probably did.
Bobby
Oh, you just didn't.
Lunchbox
But yeah, she's like, hey, are you gonna pick that up? Yeah, I'm gonna Get that tomorrow. I'm gonna get that tomorrow. And then yesterday I finally. You know what? It's time to get to it. Because there are a couple times the middle of the night I get up to go pee and I kick the suitcase and that really hurts. And so I finally moved it off the bedroom floor and unpacked my cruise gear.
Bobby
Good for you. I did see a video that I think Lunchbox posted or the Bobby Boncho account posted of the bus driving off after the cruise while Morgan was trying to be on the phone trying to locate her bag of the camera and stuff.
Morgan
Oh yeah, that was brutal.
Bobby
Did anybody stay back with you, Morgan?
Morgan
Nope. I was by myself.
Lunchbox
Well, I wasn't gonna stay with her. I was getting on the plane like it ain't my responsibility. Why, uh, no chance would you have
Bobby
left Morgan and left all the stuff on the boat?
Morgan
I did think about it. Cause I had what I needed to get on the plane. And worst case scenario, the cruise ship could have mailed it to me. But it was my work computer and I really needed that that day to be able to do stuff. So I was, I was risking it for at least an hour or so waiting.
Bobby
Thinking back, what made you forget the computer on the boat? Like what happened that distracted you?
Lunchbox
TikTok?
Morgan
It was a bunch of things. One, I was so exhausted from the whole week. I was excited to get back home. I was hungover. I was trying to do a TikTok video. There was like three different things happening all at the same time. And I had two bags on top of that one bag. So I just was not in the frame of mind. And this is why I've recently not been drinking as much anymore because I'm trying to stay clear headed.
Bobby
I'm sure exhaustion played equal role as drinking. Probably more so. Probably more so you guys stayed on the boat for all seven days? I got my itinerary for next year by the way. And Cozumel is one of the stops next year. I've never been there.
Scuba
Is that Mexico?
Bobby
It is.
Scuba
Okay.
Bobby
Did you. Do you not have yours? It's a. It's literally a year out.
Scuba
Yeah, we. I haven't gotten anything.
Bobby
Oh, maybe they check with me first.
Scuba
So what if they tell you like where the boat's going or like what your room size?
Bobby
I don't have all that stuff yet. It was, I was just looking at the places that it was going. Cuz I think this is just from what I read yesterday. I think we leave from Tampa and scuba. If he's in the Room can. You're right.
Mike
It's Tampa's the port of call.
Bobby
So we leave from Tampa, which I think I like a lot better than Miami or Fort Lauderdale. So we leave from Tampa, and then does it go to Cozumel from there?
Mike
No, that. I believe it's Key West.
Bobby
Oh, Key West.
Scuba
I miss it already.
Bobby
And then Cozumel, and then I think it's Nassau.
Mike
Cozumel in Tampa.
Bobby
Okay. There you go.
Amy
Oh, so. So same thing. Cozumel.
Bobby
Cozumel and Tampa are different.
Amy
Yeah. In Tampa.
Bobby
Yeah. Start from Tampa, but it goes Cozumel. But anyway, I was looking at that stuff yesterday, and mostly it was like, I'm trying. We're trying to see if Eddie and I are going to play again, do something different. I don't know. Obviously, we have different artists that are playing, so maybe it was just that kind of. That was it. I guess it was an overarching. I guess before it gets to you guys, I got to check off.
Amy
Do they want me to do another health and wellness?
Bobby
We didn't get there yet.
Amy
Okay.
Scuba
Those sunrise walks now, Dad, I can
Bobby
probably guarantee you'll do those. If you want to do those. I can promise. Another sunrise walk.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby
Scuba. Do you know if this one's selling? Have you talked to anybody?
Mike
From what I remember, when we were even on the cruise, before we get off, we got off because we were able to promote, like, next year's ship. I believe it was a 35% signup rate.
Lunchbox
Wow.
Bobby
From the cruise?
Mike
From the cruise itself. Yeah. And it was. I think it was, like, day two or day three at that point. So I think it's doing pretty well.
Amy
Yeah, I saw a lot of people with hats when they. When they signed, they got a hat that said 20, 20, 27.
Bobby
Yeah, they left one of my room, and I was.
Scuba
Oh, really?
Bobby
Yeah. And I was like, I didn't pay for this. They were like, no, but you're on it, right? I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Amy
But no, I saw, like, multiple people with their hats, like, excited.
Bobby
Mike, you want to go on the next one? It's up to you. Out of all the stories, if you want to go. I can do, like, Ray and Crowbar you in if you want to go. You have. You have probably, like, two months. You need to let me know in, like, two months.
Scuba
I'll think about it, Mike. I'll show you around Key west, dude, you're going to love it. You're gonna love it.
Bobby
Just. And I'll check back in a couple months, okay? And I think. I don't know if I told Abby last year. Hey, is Abby in the room?
Amy
I think you did. You already said Abby.
Bobby
Did I promise you you could go?
Amy
Yes, you did.
Scuba
Okay.
Bobby
Crap.
Scuba
Hey, Mike. Hold on.
Amy
Not like I remember, Micah.
Mike
We're already over budget with the current staff. That's already went from last year.
Bobby
It doesn't matter.
Scuba
Over budget? We didn't spend any money. Like, wait, that's according to.
Mike
That's according to Rick.
Bobby
But it doesn't matter because we were over budget whenever Ray was coming on last time. So it's fine. If anything, I'll pay for it if they want to go. So, Mike, you let me know, okay?
Amy
Abby's in. She's already in. You.
Scuba
You promised.
Bobby
Abby, if you want to go and you're committing right now, I will have Scuba send a note to Rick saying that Abby would go. We have to find some. But, Abby, you have to perform.
Amy
Oh. Oh, sing.
Scuba
Yeah. That's performing. Abby. What was Abby thinking other than singing Lunchbox Stop.
Bobby
Abby, what were you thinking?
Lunchbox
She was just backed out of the cruise.
Amy
No, I didn't. I'm kidding. I'll sing.
Lunchbox
Hey, sales are dropping. Sales are dropping.
Bobby
Maybe. Okay. Scuba, let Rick know that I promised Abby she could come on the cruise and that she'll perform. Okay. She can perform with the raging idiots.
Scuba
Well, she can have her own little thing, too.
Bobby
And then she. She can. She can perform with the raging idiots and she can do, like, a set, like, out on the boat.
Scuba
That'd be cool.
Mike
Yeah, they have all kinds of little, like, hideaway spots where they do set.
Scuba
She's played shows before. Yeah.
Bobby
You guys are acting like she's never sang a song.
Lunchbox
She's gonna have to hire a guitar player. That's an extra.
Scuba
I'll do it.
Bobby
Eddie will do it.
Scuba
I'll do it.
Bobby
And there'll be other artists there that have guitar players that we could pay 100 bucks to do if that's what you wanted to do.
Amy
I want to perform.
Bobby
No.
Scuba
Oh, my gosh.
Amy
Well, I didn't know it was this easy.
Bobby
You do perform whenever you do line dancing in your wellness, talk in your sunrise. Sunrise walks.
Amy
Remember we used to sing a song together. You're the reason our kids are ugly.
Bobby
Yeah, that was because we did it with, like, three other people. And then you. You were the one that was there
Scuba
that time you happened to be there.
Bobby
Yeah.
Amy
They're ugly.
Bobby
Yes. Scuba, would you mind sending that email off?
Amy
So now I was just convenient.
Scuba
Well, yeah. Yeah.
Amy
Had no idea.
Bobby
Yeah. Story of our life. Morgan, do you want to do one?
Amy
Yeah.
Morgan
Tell me something good.
Bobby
Yeah.
Morgan
Oh, I am in a music video.
Bobby
Go on.
Amy
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. This looks cool.
Morgan
Yeah, I. So one of my friends, Julia Cole, she has a song out called at my Wedding, and she asked me and three of her other girlfriends to come to a bridal shop, and we, like, played dress up with wedding dresses, and we shot a music video.
Bobby
How does it look? Are you happy with your performance?
Morgan
Yeah. I mean, there's one shot where, like, they're definitely up my nostril because I'm laying on the ground in, like, a cute little formation. Besides that, though, I loved it. It was really fun to do.
Bobby
What about you wearing a wedding dress before your actual wedding?
Morgan
Yeah, that felt weird. I was like, I haven't even tried on wedding dresses for my wedding yet, but I'm in one for a music video. Is that Madlock?
Amy
Oh, well. So two birds, one stone. Did you find a dress for yourself?
Scuba
That's a good idea.
Bobby
Efficient is the time.
Morgan
Yeah, I did not. I don't think I would wear the two that I had on there. They were very poofy, very ball gown, princess Bridgerton style.
Bobby
Did they pick the dress for you to wear in the video, or did you get to say yes to the dress for the video?
Morgan
They did pick some out, and then I did get to say yes if I wanted to wear it. So. Yes. Kind of. Kind of had the moment of yes. I want to wear that one.
Bobby
That's cool. And what's the video called?
Morgan
It's called at my Wedding. It's a. Like a sisterhood song of, basically, your best friend is gonna be at the wedding, but she doesn't know who the groom is gonna be. Is the vibe of the song.
Bobby
Your best friend is gonna be at the wedding, but the groom is a mystery.
Morgan
Yeah. Like, so I know that she's gonna be at my wedding, but I don't know if you're gonna be there kind of thing. She's talking about a guy.
Bobby
Okay, now you're doing from her perspective. Okay, so.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bobby
Oh, got it. Oh, like, so the groom may stand her up.
Morgan
No, so, like, she could be dating a guy, but she's like, I don't know if you're gonna be at my wedding, but I know she's gonna be
Bobby
literally at the wedding.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bobby
Okay. I thought she was, like, at the wedding going, I know my best friend's gonna be here, but it's my groom gonna show up. That's the question.
Amy
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bobby
Oh, so it's like, while your friends. It's like, yes. Got it. That's cool.
Amy
Yeah, yeah.
Morgan
Like, sorry, I explained that in a roundabout way, but yes. It's like a sisterhood best friend song. She's gonna be in all the big parts of my life. I don't know about you, though kind of vibe.
Amy
Okay, got it now?
Bobby
We got it. All right, good.
Amy
Cute.
Bobby
Everybody in?
Scuba
Yeah, that's cool.
Bobby
All right. I mean, did everybody do their tell me something good? All right, There you go. Tell me something good. That was. Tell me something good. It's time for the good news with Bobby. Tell me something good. While traveling through the airport in Atlanta, my mom was tired of dealing with a kid because the kid was on the verge of a meltdown. Now, she still loved her kid, and I think you guys could probably vouch for this. You still love him, but sometimes you get tired of them.
Scuba
Absolutely.
Bobby
Oh, yeah. Okay, good.
Lunchbox
Amen.
Bobby
And so she got an assist from a TGI Friday waitress. So Kalane said that the server, Brittany, picked up her two year old mid tantrum and just started walking around the restaurant. I was like, hey, give him a little drink. And the mom shared it on social media. Got 4 million views. And so she was like, hey, I want to do something nice for you. So she just threw up a GoFundMe, thinking it'd be a few hundred bucks if anything. It raised more than $12,000.
Scuba
Wow.
Bobby
She wasn't doing it for the money. She obviously was just doing it to help the kid, help the mom. But the mom was like, let me throw this up and see if anybody responds to it. So crowdfunded at $12,000. That's pretty cool.
Scuba
So are you saying you should probably just, like, if you see a kid crying, pick him up?
Lunchbox
Yeah, 100%. Then someone will do a GoFundMe for you.
Bobby
All that. I would say, no, that's probably not gonna happen. But what I would say is, this is me making up the story here in my mind of what happened. The server was also a moment understood that the mom was exhausted. Said, hey, do you mind if I, like, I can walk him around. And the mom's like, please, God. And then walks him around. And the mom's like, man, that helped me so much. Like, what can I do? Even if limited, it's free to put up a GoFundMe. Probably shared it on social media. Next thing you know, boom.
Scuba
That's pretty cool.
Bobby
That's the story that I made up in my head.
Amy
Yeah, that sounds.
Lunchbox
You know what Else is pretty cool that TGI Fridays is still open in the airport.
Bobby
A lot of them did not realize that maybe airport dominant now that might be their thing. I don't know. I rarely see any out. Just walking the streets like I do sometimes. Yeah, sunny skies. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good. It's time for the good news with lunchbox. Tell me something good.
Lunchbox
A family in Texas lost their dog Coco two years ago. Wandered away from their house. They put up signs, couldn't find it anywhere. Two years go by, they think, oh, never gonna see coco again. Well, 1500 miles away in Clark, New Jersey, police found a stray dog walking on the street. They checked the microchip and found the family in Texas. So before the family could get back, the police kept it, gave it baths, toys, spoiled it rotten until they could be reunited.
Bobby
What do they think happened? Is there a theory on how the dog got way up there?
Lunchbox
They did not say a truck. They.
Scuba
A trucker.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Or a kidnapper. N trafficker.
Amy
No, dog traff.
Bobby
A dog trafficker that you just. You end up leaving the dog on the street.
Lunchbox
Well, maybe they traffic it to another family. The family's like, I don't want this. And they just let it out.
Amy
Or it gets out, the dog escapes.
Bobby
Do you think it's a stolen dog and then someone just lets it go?
Lunchbox
Yeah. Cuz how else does it get 1500 miles? I mean, that's a long way to go.
Scuba
I'm with Amy. A trucker saw it kind of on the road. It's my little pet.
Bobby
So it escaped. The family accidentally let it escape. Someone sees it, thinks it's a stray, but probably had a collar on it.
Amy
Maybe, maybe not.
Lunchbox
And it has a chip.
Amy
But. But if you don't know that.
Bobby
No, he does know it has a chip.
Scuba
That's how they found it. No, I'm saying the quote unquote trucker doesn't know he has a chip.
Amy
That's why you immediately take it to a place where they can scan it.
Bobby
Unless you're a lonely trucker and you need a friend. And that friend is that dog. That's a good story. It's back with the family. I love that. That's what it's all about. That was.

Bobby
This is an iHeart podcast. Guaranteed Human.
Date: March 24, 2026
Host: Bobby Bones (Premiere Networks)
Episode Focus: Wholesome updates and good news from the show’s crew, plus candid reflections on parenting, life changes, and recent adventures.
This episode centers around the recurring “Tell Me Something Good” segment, where Bobby and regular cast members (Amy, Scuba Steve, Lunchbox, and Morgan) share uplifting stories and personal wins. The vibe is casual, humorous, and warm, with conversations ranging from Bobby’s new experiences as a parent and winning the lottery, to Amy considering having another baby, and deeper discussions about forgiveness, self-awareness, and personal growth.
Bobby shares the exhaustion and joys of having a newborn baby.
Amy reflects on her own babysitting/nannying and aunt experiences but admits it's making her want another baby.
Discussion turns humorous with talk about whether everyone really thinks new babies are cute, or feels obligated to say so.
“Here’s the thing about a newborn. I would compare it to a long road trip because you don’t know why you’re tired at the end of the day... you just had to stay so focused... that you’re just exhausted.” — Bobby (03:23)
“Turns out all you needed was a newborn!” — Amy (03:58)
“I think if you have a baby, everybody has to talk about how cute the baby is regardless. It could be an alien Goonies-type baby and people would be like, ‘What a cute baby.’” — Bobby (06:29)
Shares story about her son setting a personal best mile despite forgetting his racing shoes (10:51)
“He’s like, ‘Mom, really what I need is just space from you right now.’ And I was like, I love that you know that. Let me give you space.” — Amy (14:13)
Scuba (aka Eddie) shares he’s started lifting weights again (19:33),
“If you can keep going without someone pushing you, that’s great.” — Bobby (20:21)
