[Lunchbox]

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

[Morgan]

Tell me something good.

[Lunchbox]

We kind of a rough night with baby last night. She usually sleeps eight hours now through the night. She kind of woke up the middle night last night. So that's the bad. But that's pretty good. If, like, if it's happening once a

[Eddie]

week, that's pretty good.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Cuz mostly it's just like rock and roll. The real good one though is my wife made some quesadillas. But how I like them.

[Amy]

Which is how?

[Lunchbox]

Very simple.

[Eddie]

And not real cheese.

[Lunchbox]

No, real cheese. Yeah, it's some kind of steak and then some fake cheese and then basically a tortilla. And I don't think she put on like hours and hours, but it doesn't matter.

[Eddie]

That's weird. We had that last night too. Quesadillas. I didn't even realize that.

[Lunchbox]

Holy crap.

[Eddie]

That's crazy, dude.

[Lunchbox]

So we did that. That's good. Yeah, I don't really have anything great, but I just had to appreciate the fact that the baby almost never wakes up at night. And so we had a rough night last night. But man, how rare is that? We've been very fortunate. So that's my good.

[Amy]

Now you have to have a little bit of that sprinkled in or you won't recognize the good.

[Lunchbox]

I'd rather not have to recognize the good. I'd rather just let it be good. I'm fixing it up there. Amy, what do you got?

[Amy]

Last night I went to my son's art show at school, at an art show. So the art class, like the teacher puts everything on display and parents can just stop by like between 5:30 and 7:30. And they had like water and cookies.

[Lunchbox]

And what did he do?

[Amy]

So he had two things in the show. One was an entire replica, but mini of a Chick fil A.

[Lunchbox]

He built it himself?

[Amy]

Yeah, he worked on that one with a friend. And they had little like Lego people as the employees. And they had cars. They had a complete with a drive through and everything. They even printed out the Chick Fil A menu and had it on the cardboard cut out. It reminded me of that scene from Zoolander where he's looking at the rendering the model. So it's like a model of a Chick fil A. And then he had this other pottery piece that he made. It's like a sunflower. And he made it for me and said I can put my jewelry in it. And so that was really cute. And so I just thought it was sweet because he's had an art show before last year and he didn't want us to go. So this year I thought, well, this is progress. He at least really wanted to go and show off his stuff.

[Lunchbox]

So how is he as an artist?

[Amy]

He is completing the assignment.

[Lunchbox]

Man, I Was terrible. I mentioned this already. I had no handwriting, no drawing. It was just not my strength at all.

[Amy]

Yeah, like, it's cute. It's not gonna. I probably win any awards, but with me, it does.

[Lunchbox]

Like, okay, you don't have to defend it. I just wonder. Some kids just don't have the art.

[Morgan]

Or adults.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, Like, I don't have that.

[Amy]

I don't have that.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. I was talking about my handwriting yesterday. It's terrible. I'm an adult, man. My handwriting is still terrible. I was thinking about something else. My wife had to go to the doctor yesterday for couple hours, and so I was on solo dad patrol, and it went great. So no issues. That was a good part of the day.

[Eddie]

That's a good way to say it, too. Like, I would normally say, like, yeah, I was watching the baby, and they're like, oh, no, you're not watching the baby.

[Amy]

You're the dad. I know I said that before.

[Eddie]

And they're like, no, you're not babysitting. You're the dad.

[Lunchbox]

Who did you say that to? Cause I wouldn't have caught that.

[Eddie]

If I'm just talking to people and be like, man, I watched the baby yesterday for two hours, and they're just like, no, you didn't watch the baby.

[Morgan (female)]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Cause like, do moms ever say that I had to watch the kids?

[Lunchbox]

No, but if they do that all the time, then you don't really say it. Or if the dad does it all the time, you don't really say it. But for me, I don't have multiple hours at a time for the most part, unless my wife needs to go get things done. But I had two hours, so yesterday, and it was great. So no issues.

[Eddie]

No, the way you said it was great, baby, for.

[Amy]

The way you said it was good.

[Lunchbox]

Perfect. Yeah. Perfect. Okay. Good, good, good. Okay, Eddie, tell me something good, man.

[Eddie]

Last night, I. I found my go to karaoke song, which I never knew. Usually it's like, oh, karaoke Margaritaville. Or I would do an Elvis song or something. Last night, I was singing karaoke, and my song, I think I was doing, like, Brown eyed Girl or whatever, and it ran out. And I do it through YouTube, so it suggests the next song. And it was New York, New York by Frank Sinatra. And I'm like, I kind of like that song, dude, I nailed it.

[Lunchbox]

Who's with you when you're doing this? Because it's at your house.

[Eddie]

Everyone's kind of there doing their own thing.

[Lunchbox]

So they're also in the house, you mean?

[Eddie]

Yeah, like, some are upstairs. My wife's usually cooking in the kitchen.

[Lunchbox]

So you're by yourself just singing? Yes. Yeah.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Lunchbox]

It's fun. That's fun.

[Eddie]

Instead of having, like, the, you know, a song like your Bluetooth on or whatever, like, they listen to me sing karaoke. And then sometimes my kids are like, oh, I like that song. I'll jump in, dad, and then they'll take over. But, dude, New York, New York, I think, is my new go to song.

[Lunchbox]

Do you sing in his key?

[Eddie]

Yeah, whatever key it was, I think just the standard key, but it's, like, deeper. Start spreading the news. I nailed it. And then after I sang it the first time, my wife was like, do it again. That was so good. I did it again.

[Raymundo]

She called you out and said, do it.

[Morgan]

She called her an encore.

[Eddie]

Yes. My wife loves it when I do. When I sing karaoke. And sometimes they'll even be such a jam, she'll be like, I'm jumping in on this one.

[Amy]

I feel like I'm gonna kind of be a hater on this. But that song sounds like a kind of a boring karaoke.

[Eddie]

Not the way I sing it. Not the way I do it.

[Morgan]

Very slow. I mean, just, like.

[Eddie]

So, like, on the boat, you know, the cruise we went on, they do, like, live band karaoke. I wonder if next year I can do New York, New York.

[Lunchbox]

Whenever you did that, is there a list, or do you go up and say, hey, will you guys do this song?

[Eddie]

Morgan was hosting, and I just told Morgan, like, see if they know Margaritaville. And then I did Margaritaville.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I would think they would if it's a boat band.

[Morgan]

Right.

[Eddie]

That'd be a go to Morgan.

[Lunchbox]

Do you know. Do you just go up to them and ask them if they knew it or.

[Morgan (female)]

No, I. We set it up so he would come. Be a surprise because it was. All the listeners were competing. It was a karaoke competition. And I was like, well, we have a surprise guest. And we just pulled up Eddie to come and sing.

[Morgan]

Yeah, but was there a list of songs they were choosing from, or did they just choose any song they wanted?

[Morgan (female)]

So they had a DJ and they had the band. The DJ was looking up songs.

[Lunchbox]

Instrumentals. Perfect.

[Doug's Friend]

Yeah.

[Morgan (female)]

And then the band was playing. I think they'd play along when they knew it or along the lines of playing it. Does that make sense?

[Lunchbox]

I wonder how our cruise is doing. I try to check in, see how it's selling. Hey, Ray. We asked Scuba to come to the microphone, Scoob Mike. And sometimes they don't check in with him except for, like, every three or four months. Hey, Scooby. Hey, Scooby.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

How's the cruise doing? Do you know?

[Scuba]

I do not, but I know that we have some, like, paid stuff coming up. As far as, like, promotional stuff goes. I feel like they're happy with it, but we're still so far out. I don't think it's that big of a deal quite yet.

[Lunchbox]

Meaning if we're not, like, 95%, they're not freaking out because we're over a year away or not a year, but close to a year away.

[Scuba]

Well, I mean, I feel like you talked about sales department. They're like, we wanted to sell out immediately, but it's a very expensive thing to. For anyone to jump onto. I feel like. I feel like we're pacing. Phenomenal, but no updates as far as how it's really, really going.

[Lunchbox]

The top shelf country crew, second sailing.

[Eddie]

I like that.

[Lunchbox]

With the Voice judge Riley Green. Now, you know you got put on the Voice as one of the judges.

[Amy]

I did know that.

[Morgan]

I got a question. Anything about a drink package next year? Have we. Oh, boy, have we ironed that out?

[Eddie]

Well, you know what? There's plenty of time to work.

[Morgan]

No, no, no. Let's not. Let's not leave that to the last minute.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah.

[Scuba]

No, There's a lot of things that I don't want to leave to the. Like, the WI fi and those kind of things, but I feel like the drink package won't be what you want because there's a concern of people getting plastered drunk, which we had some small issues last year with that.

[Lunchbox]

Isn't that every cruise, though? Everybody gets plastered.

[Amy]

Working tablet.

[Morgan]

I mean.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, was it working people that got drunk?

[Raymundo]

Yeah.

[Scuba]

So you're working, and that's the. That's the thing that you're paid to be there and work.

[Eddie]

Ray.

[Lunchbox]

Was it Ray?

[Scuba]

I'm not going to name any names, Morgan.

[Eddie]

It was Ray.

[Lunchbox]

Hey, I didn't.

[Morgan (female)]

That was people giving it to me during boozy bingo. That was part of the gig.

[Lunchbox]

There's a difference.

[Amy]

I got sick off the boat. I was already done. My duties were over.

[Scuba]

I didn't say your name.

[Eddie]

Amy.

[Lunchbox]

No, but there's a difference in being drunk, inappropriate on the boat and being inappropriate and sloppy and being drunk on the boat and just not being inappropriate.

[Amy]

Right.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Amy]

There's also, like, a fine line of, like, fun.

[Lunchbox]

Who got.

[Scuba]

Who.

[Lunchbox]

Did somebody get in trouble?

[Scuba]

No, no one got in trouble, but there was internal conversations of like, hey, they're there to be working, not getting drunk. So don't focus so much. And I want the drink package. I want to get plastered.

[Eddie]

Oh, I know that accent,

[Morgan]

but it's not even that. It's.

[Lunchbox]

I think we get. I think we have an idea.

[Morgan]

The whole point is that when I'm not working, I. I have downtime.

[Lunchbox]

No, you're always working on the boat.

[Scuba]

We have very little downtime. And in between, it's still. It's almost like a 247 meet and greet. So they need you to be on your best behavior.

[Morgan]

Okay, so now we're not allowed to drink.

[Amy]

So everybody said what he said.

[Scuba]

They just don't want you to have unlimited amounts of alcohol. They want you to have, like. Like for me, for example. Great example. I had two drinks a day, maybe three. And that spread across the entire day.

[Morgan]

Right, but did you have a card that you didn't have to pay for it?

[Scuba]

No, I didn't, stupid.

[Morgan]

That's what I'm saying. I don't want to be paying for the drinks. I should be getting free drinks. So if I want.

[Lunchbox]

Did they pay you back for your drinks?

[Morgan]

No.

[Lunchbox]

They still haven't hit you back?

[Morgan]

No.

[Lunchbox]

Did you pay, though? Or they cut. They cut your.

[Morgan]

No, no, I paid like. I got a bill when I. In my email. I have a receipt, but have you

[Scuba]

done your expense report yet?

[Morgan]

I didn't think I could write off alcohol.

[Scuba]

Well, we were telling you that you can, so we.

[Lunchbox]

Yes, we've told you you can write off anything.

[Morgan]

That's what I'm talking about.

[Eddie]

I didn't know that. I'm.

[Morgan]

I don't care about the card. I'll just write it off. That's fine.

[Eddie]

I remember at one point, Lunchbox, you had like four pina coladas. Right?

[Morgan]

I mean, I couldn't even get a bottled water at one point.

[Lunchbox]

That wasn't a bit, by the way. I can promise you. That was. No, like, let's make Lunchbox have the.

[Scuba]

It was a card issue. You had the red card.

[Morgan]

And that's what I'm saying. Let's not leave that to the last.

[Lunchbox]

Did they think he did a good job last year? Yeah, they were very.

[Scuba]

I think you were the highlights of the cruise.

[Lunchbox]

Great, then let's keep them on the same card. We'll keep them up if they loved it. Why would you change something if it goes so well?

[Eddie]

That's a good point.

[Morgan]

That is the dumbest thing you've ever said.

[Amy]

Even get in to eat with us.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

I couldn't even go to dinner with

[Morgan]

them, I had to sneak into performance.

[Lunchbox]

Why change something that went so well? If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

[Eddie]

And when we all got on the boat, his room wasn't ready for a whole other, like, 10 hours. Perfect.

[Lunchbox]

And that. And that what that did is allowed him to go out and be a man amongst the people.

[Morgan]

I mean, you know how embarrassing it is to have to sneak into dinner to sneak in to see, you know, concerts. Like, I mean, it's like, what are we doing? Like, oh, sorry, you don't have the right card. You can't come watch. What? Oh, Morgan and Amy and everybody else is going, but I just got to stand outside. Yeah, sorry about that. All right, cool.

[Scuba]

Yeah, that was a huge mess up. I mean, it was great for us on the show as far as content goes, but that was truly an accident.

[Eddie]

Even raging idiots, you couldn't get in there.

[Morgan]

No, I could sneak. Dude, I had to listen. I literally had to go out on the, like, deck, walk past the. Where the entrance was and come in the side door because I didn't have the right color car.

[Eddie]

He's like, I work with those guys.

[Lunchbox]

I know. I promise. Here's a picture of me with them on my phone.

[Morgan]

And she was like, sorry, you have a red card. And I'm like, oh, my gosh.

[Lunchbox]

A little bit of me Scuba subscribes to if it ain't broke, don't fix it, you know?

[Scuba]

Yeah, well, the one thing that kind of irked me a little bit was I wanted us to have some sort of like a. You know how we go to iheart Festival. We have those badges that say who we are for instances like that, and they're like, you don't need it. No one's gonna have that. I got on the ship, and everyone that worked there had one of those VIP type badges. So we may have that this coming year.

[Lunchbox]

Well, you guys can hop on with us.

[Morgan]

See it for yourself.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Topshelfcountrycruise.com Riley Green. Lauren Atlanta. Chris Young. Randy Houser. Jackson Dean, Travis Denning. Bobby Boncho.

TikTok Lunchbox Man, I don't know if

[Morgan]

I have anything positive now. I mean, you got to put me in a bad mood right there. I will say that I did take my dog. I take him to a. It's like a dog bar. Like, they have food, drinks, and it's just like, a big place where dogs can play. And they have referees, like, if they get out of control.

[Lunchbox]

That's funny. A referee.

[Morgan]

Yeah, it's really cool. And my dog always gets a little out of control because he's a puppy and starts mountain dogs and doing crazy stuff. And we went yesterday, and he didn't get put in timeout one time. Like, he was actually, like, learning that, hey, you know what I mean? I can wrestle, but I can't, like, mount. And so there was no timeout for my dog yesterday because you get kind of embarrassed because they bring him over and, like, can you put him on the leash for 10 minutes? It's like, oh, my God. Referee. Yeah, they. Do. They have referees to walk around.

[Eddie]

Do you get a drink, too, at the bar?

[Morgan]

Yeah, you can get a drink. You can get everything you want. Food, drinks. People are there. All people work from there, man. They just bring their dog to work every day.

[Lunchbox]

Morgan.

[Morgan (female)]

Okay, so it started out bad because I am notorious for sitting, like, five or six alarms, and this morning, not a single one went off. I don't know what happened. They just didn't show up. But my body woke up. I was not late today. You guys saw me, I came here, I made it. I wasn't, like, scrambling either. I got myself put together, and I was actually shocked. Like, normally I would have not woken up. I sleep like I'm dead.

[Lunchbox]

Do you think you set them all for pm? I've done that before.

[Morgan (female)]

No, they were all AM they're all

[Amy]

AM how did they not? They just.

[Eddie]

Was it silenced?

[Morgan (female)]

No, it was on. I'm having a lot of problems. Eddie's scene. My phone just kind of makes random noises sometimes, so.

[Eddie]

Have you not heard it during the show?

[Morgan]

It does. I thought you got a new phone, though.

[Morgan (female)]

It is a new phone, but something about, like, the settings on the new phone, random things go off, even though I've instructed it not to go off. And now I have things that aren't going off. When I have asked it to go off.

[Morgan]

And doesn't your dad call you every morning to make sure you're up?

[Morgan (female)]

No, he stopped doing that a while ago.

[Amy]

He's retired.

[Morgan]

When your dude moved in, that's when he.

[Morgan (female)]

No, my dad's retired, so he doesn't get up anymore.

[Morgan]

I got too awkward. My dad calling you when he's in there. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Raymundo, do you have anything?

[Raymundo]

Yeah. So my wife works from home, and, yeah, we're around each other 24 hours a day. So today she has an event at Gaylord at the Opry Land, and it's all day. I mean, it's a convention. It's all these people work from home. It's massive for her career. She might be gone all night. So I have the house to myself. I'm talking papa shot. I'm talking video games with my nephew ordering UberEats. TV's going to be.

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Raymundo]

Oh, you mean online TV's gonna be on full blast? If the. If there's NBA on, I'm putting it on volume 50. You're gonna think I'm courtside at the game. It is gonna be awesome.

[Lunchbox]

Congratulations.

[Eddie]

That's cool, Ray.

[Raymundo]

Thanks, guys.

[Lunchbox]

Abby, what about you? You have anything?

[Abby]

Yeah, my family's in town. We went to the Eagles on Saturday.

[Lunchbox]

How was that show?

[Abby]

It was so good. It was awesome. I think it was, like, one of the first shows at, like, the new Vanderbilt Stadium.

[Eddie]

Is it done?

[Lunchbox]

I didn't know that was the deal.

[Abby]

Yeah, like, at the football stadium, it was really cool. They have, like, suites in the back.

[Lunchbox]

They played in the football stadium at Vanderbilt?

[Abby]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

You remember when we went. It was under construction.

[Lunchbox]

It was under construction as they played ball last year. Yes.

[Abby]

Yeah, it was awesome. Getting out was really hard because, like, traffic around there is crazy, so we kind of got stranded, But. So there's also an amphitheater in Franklin that's called the First Bank Amphitheater. And our Uber, like, accidentally took someone before us all the way there because the people thought it was at the amphitheater.

[Eddie]

That's terrible.

[Abby]

I know, because it's called. This is First Bank Stadium, and that's First Bank Amphitheater.

[Eddie]

That's confused.

[Lunchbox]

Wow.

[Amy]

So.

[Lunchbox]

But that Uber driver must have been just going on the route.

[Amy]

They said you have to enter it in.

[Abby]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. You don't walk in, like, a taxi and be like, first bank, hit it.

[Abby]

Right? Yeah. He didn't.

[Lunchbox]

He didn't know. When we were in Austin, we. It was cold for Iowa Country Fest, and we went to watch Arkansas Texas play Softball. And so we get there and it's like drizzling. It's wet, it's cold. And so we're leaving and I'm like, man, we're gonna call Uber and get a ride back to the hotel. So I call Uber from outside the softball stadium, and the softball stadium and the baseball stadium are right beside each other. And the Uber was waiting on the other side of the baseball stadium. So I type it in. He's sitting there, and I'm like, let's just go walk to the other side of the baseball stadium. We'll get to the car. He's there, but we're cold and probably took us 7 minutes to walk over there. And so we're like, all right, cool, man. He starts to drive, and he drives like, I don't know, two minutes. It's like, all right, you're here. Drops off the softball stadium where we

[Eddie]

were standing to begin with.

[Amy]

Well, so then what?

[Lunchbox]

Well, then I was like, no, can I, like, redo you? Because I think what I did was, is the baseball stadium popped up and I was like, I'm gonna change it to the softball stadium. But instead of changing it, I did the softball stadium on the bottom as the arrival place.

[Doug's Friend]

Yes.

[Lunchbox]

So he drove. As he was driving over, I was like, this feels weird. Like, this is not the way to the hotel.

[Eddie]

Amy. It was like a two minute ride. He's like, all right, you guys are good.

[Lunchbox]

I was like, can I, like, add something? And so then he took us. But I can definitely see an accident like that. Especially if you're from out of town.

[Amy]

Yeah. If you're not from here, I would

[Eddie]

be like, man, that's a 30, maybe 40 minutes.

[Abby]

Oh, yeah. And then they had to turn around. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

If you're from out of town, you don't really know that what you're driving by is not it.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. That sucks. All right. Hey, Scuba, do you have anything? You just walk back in. He's like, what are we doing?

[Scuba]

Tell me some good podcasts. I have something, but I don't really want to say it yet.

[Lunchbox]

All right, cool.

[Doug's Friend]

Yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

It's a tease.

[Scuba]

It's a tease. Yeah, it's a long, drawn out tease. We have an answer later this week or next week.

[Amy]

Regarding what?

[Scuba]

Regarding life.

[Amy]

Oh, my gosh.

[Eddie]

Oh, wow.

[Morgan]

This is a life movement, change thing.

[Eddie]

Could it be.

[Morgan]

Wow, he's moving.

[Amy]

He can't be having another baby because he has a vasectomy.

[Eddie]

Okay, that's not.

[Scuba]

Or can I.

[Lunchbox]

You can get those things put back together.

[Eddie]

And it's not 100%.

[Doug's Friend]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Ever.

[Scuba]

I'm not shooting blanks anymore.

[Lunchbox]

Anytime I think about that, I think about him going home right after the vasectomy and having sex with his wife, and it injures him after they told him not to do it. Yeah. They're like, don't have sex. And he's like, I had to. I got home, I was so invigorated. Euphoric moment after surgery. I was so invigorated by it. Oh, I just had to do it.

[Scuba]

She was proud of me. She gave me that look, and I was like, here we go.

[Lunchbox]

But it was right after. It's like, don't go run sprints after your ankle surgery. No, I needed to get the need to get that run in.

[Scuba]

I was high on laughing gas, too, so a lot of things were.

[Lunchbox]

But also the fact that she wasn't like, steve, let's not do this.

[Scuba]

Yeah, but, like, how could you turn me down?

[Eddie]

Easy.

[Lunchbox]

What do you mean? Nothing. Because you're so.

[Scuba]

So masculine.

[Lunchbox]

Sexually undeniable.

[Amy]

Wow.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Lunchbox]

All right. There you go. That's what it's all about. That was.

[Scuba]

Tell me something good.

[Lunchbox]

It's time for the good, Amy.

[Morgan]

Tell me something good.

[Amy]

So at Air Force graduations, the. They stand at attention until they are tapped out by a family member or a friend. So they have to stay frozen at attention, and then someone comes up and taps them and then hugs them and all that. Well, Joel Usher was at his Air Force graduation, and he knew none of his family or friends could be there. So he was standing at attention, wondering what was going to happen. And a fellow trainee that he met during training found him in the crowd, stepped in to support him. And a video that Joel posted online shows him holding back tears as his friends come and tap him out. Like his friend from training.

[Lunchbox]

Well, that sucks that his family couldn't be there. Also, jinx. You'd have to freeze if you got jinxed.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Couldn't say anything. It just depends on where you grew up, because sometimes you just couldn't say anything. Sometimes you had to freeze, depending on, like, what state you're from. If nobody tapped him out, does he just still stay there forever?

[Amy]

I mean.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, gosh.

[Amy]

You know, somebody's gonna have to.

[Lunchbox]

His family has to fly in now to tap him out.

[Amy]

His feelings at the time. He describes him as proud, grateful, and then relieved.

[Eddie]

Yeah, because he would have been there forever.

[Lunchbox]

No, he's literally standing there. Everybody's walking around him, and he isn't going anywhere.

[Morgan]

Wow.

[Lunchbox]

And Then finally, someone. Yeah, that is really cool. But, man, he would. Guys, I gotta tell you, I think he stays there forever. If no one taps him.

[Eddie]

Turn the lights out and everything.

[Lunchbox]

Hey, we gotta go home.

[Morgan]

Can't.

[Lunchbox]

Good story. Glad his buddy could see him there. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good. It's time for the good news with Lunchbox.

[Morgan]

Tell me something good. There's a boat out on the lake in Florida, six people on board, when all of a sudden. Oh, boat is sinking. We need help. Mayday. Mayday. We're going down. Well, luckily, Michael and Shane McDonald, father and son, their police officers on duty with the marine unit. And they went out and saved all six people on board.

[Amy]

Wow.

[Lunchbox]

Pretty fortunate they were nearby.

[Eddie]

His name's Michael McDonald.

[Lunchbox]

That's cool because. Amy, who's Michael McDonald? You can do it. Amy. Amy, Amy. Michael McDonald is.

[Amy]

Sounds like one of the ducks from Ducktails.

[Lunchbox]

I thought you were gonna get it. Now he's the lead singer of the Doobie Brothers.

[Morgan]

Oh, I was very confused. I was like, who is Michael McDonald? You guys are freaking out.

[Lunchbox]

When Keith Urban came in, he had a song with Michael McDonald.

[Amy]

Okay, I remember that now.

[Lunchbox]

Man, that's a helpless feeling. Your boat's going down.

[Eddie]

I know.

[Lunchbox]

There ain't nothing you can do.

[Amy]

Mayday.

[Lunchbox]

Except shovel water or yell Mayday. All right, Good saving. Did they save the boat or just save the lives?

[Morgan]

No, just the lives. Boats. A goner.

[Lunchbox]

Insurance.

[Morgan]

Yeah, insurance will take care of that.

[Lunchbox]

Insurance. There you go. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good.

[Doug]

And Doug, there's nowhere I wouldn't go to help someone customize and save on car insurance with Liberty Mutual. Even if it means sitting front row at a comedy show.

[Doug's Friend]

Hey, everyone, check out this guy and his bird. What is this, your first date?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, no.

[Doug]

We help people customize and save on car insurance with Liberty Mutual together. We're married. Me to a human, him to a bird.

[Doug's Friend]

Yeah, the bird looks out of your league.

[Doug]

Anyways, get a [e-mail] or with your local agent.

[Doug's Friend]

Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty.
