Eddie.
D
So yeah, somebody left the gate open in my backyard.
C
What has the ability to get out other than a kid?
D
Dog. And the dog got out. And so I get home yesterday and my wife's like hey, have you seen our dog? And like no, because she's usually right by the door like always on her little bed. And I said no. She's like well I think I let her out, but I'm I Don't remember. And I look out and that gate is wide open.
C
Man, that sucks.
D
Like, oh, my gosh, here we go.
C
So I go, small dog too, right? Like, animal could take it.
D
She's. No, no, no. She's like, middle. She's middle size.
C
How big? 15 pounds? Yeah.
D
Like 20, 25 pounds.
C
Okay.
D
And so I go out there, I start yelling her name, and nothing. So. And I go in my car, I drive around the block, and nothing. What always works is her bags of treats. It's like in a tin can. I take it and I shake it. Dude, she came out of the woods with burrs and, like, sticks and everything, like, running out.
C
So lucky.
D
And she came and I was like, thank God we did not lose her.
C
The fact that she was close enough to be able to hear the shake. Yeah, man, that gives me anxiety.
D
It's just funny how, like, really, I can yell her name, like, on the top of the mountain and she will not respond. But I shake her treat like, she comes running, like, no problem.
C
You have nothing to offer just by yelling her name, right? Possible scolding. Amy, you're up.
A
So I told y' all I got this new little suction cup bird feeder, and that a cardinal had come, which is my mom, but the blue jay came, which is my dad.
D
Wow.
A
And I know Eddie would appreciate it, cuz also, I need to ask Eddie how he filmed the birds coming to his feeder, because I want to get a camera too. And actually, I was going to invite Eddie on an outing if he wanted to come.
D
Yeah, let's not do that. But that's pretty. I don't know.
B
Wow.
A
You don't even know what the outing is.
B
You deny.
C
Listen to her offer. No, it's not.
D
I thought it was like, to your house to film the birds. I'm like, that's weird.
A
It's not to my house. It's to a bird store.
C
Oh, okay. Where's this bird store?
A
Like, probably 10 minutes from my house.
C
Like, I mean, that's good content. You guys go shoot you guys at a bird store.
D
Then we just go look at birds.
C
I don't know. I don't know what else you do at a bird store.
A
It's called Wild Birds Unlimited.
C
You know what I'm saying? It could be any bird.
A
They have unlimited.
C
It's unlimited as when a bird could show up.
A
Well, they have unlimited birding accessories, tools, feeders, baths.
D
See, guys, what's gonna happen?
A
Cameras.
D
We're end up buying birds.
A
No, no, no. I don't think they sell birds.
D
Oh, they don't?
A
No, I think they. It's a shop for birding people like us birders.
B
Binoculars.
A
Yes.
C
Yes. I think that would be a nice little fun, content piece to go. Shoot.
A
I've been looking at the different. The various feeders they have and different types of food. And so I've just. I guess I'm just excited that my birding is back. Cause I had to take a break. Cause when I moved, just. There wasn't a setup that really worked. I mean, I had a few feeders scattered about, but they were too far away to where I couldn't see the birds. And the suction cup one helped suck me back into it.
C
Do different bird foods attract different birds? Yes. Like, do the blue jay, who you. Your dad is a blue jay and your mom is a cardinal. Do they like the same food or different foods?
A
Yeah, they both came to the same feeder with the same food. I have a mix that's good for Tennessee type birds. And what I'm attracting is backyard birds. And cardinals and blue jays in Tennessee are a backyard bird. Like an. Eddie had a whole thing. Like, he got.
C
What about eagle? Would an eagle ever land there?
A
No, he couldn't fit an eagle.
D
I've never seen an eagle here.
A
I What, Seen hawks?
D
I've never seen an eagle here.
A
You never seen an eagle?
C
Like a landed eagle?
D
Not in Nashville, no.
A
Like a Balt eagle?
D
Yeah, yeah.
A
No, you have not.
D
No. Have you?
C
What about a former Philadelphia Eagle player just walking around like, there's an eagle.
D
Donovan MC.
A
At one of the. At one of the trails we walk, there's a eagle's nest and you have to. There's like signs everywhere that are like, don't cross this point because then you could disrupt. I mean, the nest is way up high, but I see the bald eagle flying.
D
I'll tell you what's weird about shooting, videoing these birds is like, I have a phone.
C
Are you going to your phone?
D
I have a phone with a red ca. That's how I did it. I just put my phone against the window.
A
Okay. So I was asking. I didn't know if he had a special camera or. He just did his phone. And you do. You just put it on.
C
I thought Eddie was going to make him watch YouTube video or something.
D
No, no, no.
C
He got you.
A
So you just hit record and like, let it just go. And then you edit it whenever you saw a.
D
Correct. Yeah, I'd leave it for like 15 minutes and then whatever came.
A
God, you had a lot of visitors in 15 minutes.
D
No, a lot. Yes. And when it snowed, a lot came by. But what's crazy is I have a red case on my phone. The car, the red Cardinals. Every time it came up, it was like, whoa. And then got away. The red cardinal did not like the red phone.
C
Really? Yeah. But what's crazy is a bull ran through the window.
A
Okay. So yes, Eddie, I'll have to send you a video because I thought of your dad because haven't we decided he's a morning doe.
D
He said morning doe.
A
Yeah.
D
So he comes every day.
A
By the way, Eddie's dad came to my house and couldn't figure out my feeder. And so my. It's clear plastic on the top. And he wouldn't go into the hut to get the food. He was on top of the plastic trying to get the food and he was pecking his peak down onto the. And I was like, oh, Eddie's dad's struggling.
D
He's a little uncoordinated.
A
He's struggling.
D
Yeah, yeah. He does that at my house too.
A
He's a little slow.
C
Do you know what the national bird of Mexico is?
D
Eagle.
C
Yeah, the golden eagle.
D
Because it's. It's on the flag.
C
That's correct.
D
Yeah.
A
That's what's in the scent when the.
D
Yeah, it's like a snake in its mouth and everything.
C
Yeah. There. Eagle looks hardcore. I think their eagles in the cartel.
D
So theirs is a golden eagle.
C
Probably the national bird of Mexico is the golden eagle. It's the eagle you see on the Mexican flag standing on a cactus. Respect. With a snake. Double respect. The image comes from an Aztec legend about where they found modern day Mexico City. Huh, I didn't know that.
D
That's cool.
C
Do you know there's a Mexican J.
D
Oh, like a blue jay, but a Mexican jay. No, I didn't know that.
C
I was just searching for like a Mexican bird to see.
D
Oh, see, my dad was.
C
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I landed up on the Mexico national bird, which. That's a pretty cool story.
D
I mean, dude, that would be crazy if a Mexican jay landed on my.
C
That's what I'm saying.
D
That for sure would be my dad.
A
Yeah. But for now he's a morning.
D
Yes. For.
C
Well, you can't change.
D
But he's got a buddy or something because he always comes with someone else.
A
Bobby, there are no rules. You can change.
D
You think my dad found another chick because he comes with another.
C
Oh, like a literal chick because he's a bird.
D
Oh, yes, yes.
A
Well, mourning doves often travel in pairs.
D
He found a Girl, that's the thing. Lunchbox this whole time has just been hanging his head.
B
Well, I mean, Eddie made fun of. Used to make fun of Amy all the time when we talked about her mom visiting, her dad visiting. And now all of a sudden, Eddie's like, oh, my dad's a mourning dove. And it's like, death change.
C
What happened?
D
My dad died. Happened. My dad died.
C
And then from the one person who didn't have a dead parent, he's like. But also, I don't believe him either. Thank you.
D
Have you tried?
C
No, but I don't hate it. I've always said to Amy, I think it's funny, but I can't say that's not true.
B
I know, but I just wonder what changed Eddie's mind. Just. I understand your dad died, but why?
C
That's it.
A
That's what?
C
So literally, that's it.
D
And then a mourning dove showed up, like, every day.
A
Yeah. And then he got in, and then he got a feed, and then he got. It's like a thing. It just also.
C
You also look for things to come from.
A
Maybe it's our age. I'm not quite sure what happens, but it's like just one day you wake up and it's like, oh, I find birds coming to my feet are really interesting.
D
And it's kind of cool. Like, I'll talk to him like, what's up, dad? You know, and then he'll look like. He'll look in the window and be like, what's going on? What's going on in there?
C
Yeah.
D
And he's the only bird that doesn't get scared when I sit in the couch right by the window. I don't know. Something there.
C
Probably not. But I can't prove you wrong, and nor would I want to. Because if you find comfort in it, good for you.
A
Yeah, exactly.
D
I like that.
C
But probably not. But. But you heard. I said I can't prove you wrong. I was watching a John Edwards video. He popped across my TikTok. Remember John Edwards, Amy? Senator, I think it's John Edwards. The guy that would see people death. Talk to dead people. He had a TV show for a while.
A
I mean, I feel like I'm picturing brown hair.
C
And he'd be. He'd go to the crowd and he'd be like, I'm talking to somebody.
A
Yes, yes, I know who this is.
C
Like, I generally feel. I'm gonna search him real quick. I generally feel like he's full of crap, but, man, he's good at. He's good to Be a full of crap. I could see where you'd find comfort in that. John Edwards psychic. Yeah, here we go. When they pass, and if it's too painful to leave while that person's there, they'll wait till that person's not. So if you were not able to be there, please don't take offense to that. Don't think that you failed them. They may not have been able to pass with you in the room. So it's just stuff like that. I'm like, I can't prove he's wrong, and he was on Jay Shetty's podcast. And do I think John Edwards really knows all this stuff about dead people? No. But I definitely can't prove he doesn't. And I also would never argue that there is no one with an ability that I can't understand. I'm doing lots of negatives, but I think there are people that have abilities that I can't understand. And because I can't see them or understand them doesn't mean they aren't real. But generally speaking, do I think people like that are full of crap?
D
Yeah.
A
So hard to know.
C
That's right. And because so many people take advantage of people or people, they think they have some weird ability, and they really don't. But I'm not someone who's going to tell, who's going to absolutely say, gun to my head. There's no chance. This is not. I don't even want to say a talent or a skill, but this is not something. A gift.
D
Sure.
C
A gift that people can't possess.
D
It's a good word, Amy.
A
I mean, I don't know.
C
You nailed it. Hey.
D
Nailed it.
A
So anyhoozy, Blue jay came to my feeder.
D
That's awesome. That's really cool. They do have feeders with cameras on them already.
A
I know, I know, I know. I have one of those. I feel like a listener sent it to me. I just need to set it up. It's a little complicated, but it's like one of those cameras you put in the woods, like, on a tree. I guess I could set that one up.
D
A wildlife cam.
C
Yeah. But you guys are going hard.
D
It's awesome, dude. And what's really cool with Amy is, like, no one ever. Like, there'll be a woodpecker right at the window. I'll be like, guys, guys, look at woodpecker. And nobody cares. But Amy cares, and I love that.
C
Oh, I thought then when there was your dad, they'd all come running now and then they don't care. To anybody.
D
Don't care about that one.
C
Got it. All right. It's good. Lunchbox.
B
Yeah. Yesterday at 5:32pm Got a call and it said, attention, your child will return to school tomorrow. There has been power restored. School resumes tomorrow. And I was like, all right, they're going back to school.
D
Great thing.
B
After six days off of pure chaos.
A
They were days more than that.
B
Why? Yeah, six school days. It was like, whatever. Many days in a row they go and get some education and some structure in their life.
A
Yeah. Except for. Did you also in the same. I got the email. So I got the same message, and then I get an email that's like, oh, reminder, winter break is coming up.
D
Yeah, they have a winter break.
C
Winter break.
D
Like, we just had Christmas break and.
C
Then they had snow.
A
Ice break, and then they have winter break and then they have spring break.
B
Oh, we don't have winter break. We just have spring break.
C
Does that affect, though, when big summer hits? Like, is it later because you're taking a little breaks?
B
Because they've had. They have days built in for the winter break or the. The icing. They have extra days built in the school year, so they are able to not extend the school year any.
C
But I'm talking about winter break, not the one we just had. But, like, is the schedule a little different from when we were going to school? Because they do have these smaller breaks in that the bigger break is not as big anymore.
A
Summer feels shorter. Yes.
B
They start school a lot earlier because they have fall break. And I guess you have winter break. We don't. But then you have spring break, so they have a lot more breaks. And then Thanksgiving now is all week off instead. When we were kids, it was just Thursday, Friday. Yes. So they do start earlier.
D
And the winter break isn't the whole week. It's like Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or something. Or maybe only two days.
A
I think I was like a Friday, Monday. It doesn't matter how they do it. It's just different. And it just felt. It was like, cruel to send that reminder right after they've just been home for a week. I'm like, just give it a beat. Give it a beat. But whatever. But yay, school.
B
Yeah, school. They're back at school.
A
Tell me something good.
D
Kids need, like, routine, you know, and when they don't have it, it's chaos.
C
I need ro. And when I don't have it, I feel chaos.
A
Yeah.
C
So, yes, I agree, kids, especially all humans.
A
Yeah.
C
Mine is I had this freaking zit coming up on my lip and I Popped it. And I was like, oh, God, I hope it was a zit. I don't really get that many fever blisters. It's a zit. Thank God, because I have stuff I have to do all this week. So. Can you see it at all?
A
Nope.
C
It feels like it is a second head. It's so big.
A
Did you put concealer on it?
C
No.
B
Oh.
A
Cause I can't see it at all.
C
The only time I would ever do that is if I had a real TV shoot. And I feel like it would hurt it long term, but help it short term because I was putting, like, something unnatural in it. But I got on ChatGPT last night, I took a picture of it and I said, what's going on here? Because what happened was I was already squeezing it and making it red and all messed up. And it's like, that looks like a pimple with torn skin. And I was like, thank God. It's like, this is what you do to fix that. And so I put aquaphor all over it, which is good. But I was nervous it was going to be a fever blister. It's not. And that's good news to me.
A
Yeah.
C
I had a interview last night with Cody Johnson. It was a late one. I had a long day yesterday. So we had a late Bobby cast that'll air next week. But Cody Johnson came over last night at like, 5, and we taped a Bobby cast with him. He's back. He had his ear exploded.
D
Yeah, his eardrum.
C
And so he was just done for a while, but now he's back. He's starting again. So he came over. He's a guy that's kind of like us in that his crew's been together a long time. Because I was like, hey, when you started, like, who's your guys? Like, well, 15 years ago, 13 years ago. They've been running together. And so, like us. 20 years. 20 years. Where are you at in this now? We've been friends for way longer.
D
Yeah. But with the show 12.
C
But we worked television together way before that. So that'll be next week. Blake Shelton's up now on podcasts and on Netflix. And then Derek Hough goes up on Netflix Thursday, and then Cody Johnson will be next week.
A
Derek Hough, the dancer.
C
Hmm. He's won six times, and now he's a judge on Dancing with the Stars.
D
Yeah.
C
Also.
A
Oh, did you. That's when you went to la la. Okay. I was like, when did you see him?
C
Yeah, we did a bunch out there. We did four in, like, a day and a half. So yeah, that's what's up. So that's my. Tell me something good. Hey, Ray, do you have anything? We rarely go to you on this. Yeah, out of. It's now official. Out of all my family, you guys, I guess Eddie never lost power, but we never had one second of lost power, lost hot water, lost microwave, lost refrigerator, lost dishwasher. So we live life as normal and I'm just like, wow, we must be on the most powerful power grid in all of Nashville. And just props to my father in law. I think more than that, it's your lines weren't affected by trees falling on it. So either you have lines without a bunch of trees over it that didn't crack or they're underground.
D
Yeah, my lines were underground. Hmm.
C
Also, we got a line installed when our house was built, so that might be it too. Well, nothing landed on it or affected it because that's what happened here. Correct. Maybe a squirrel, but not much more. Yeah. Well, that's great. You got to keep your power.
A
Yeah.
C
All right. There you go. That's. Tell me something good. That was. Tell me something good.

Tell me something good.
A
There's a treasure hunter. His name is Andrew Kiffer and he has a metal detector. So he's often out there. But a lot of times he comes home empty handed, doesn't find anything. Well, this trip to the beach, he found a class ring from 1966. So he looks at the high school. Okay, Crate High School looks like could be through some research, a school in Nebraska. So he called a library there to see if they could help him track down a bw. That's all he had was the initials BW and the school and the year from nearly six years ago. Well, his persistence paid off because people he was working with started to connect the dots. And the ring belonged to.
C
Oh, don't tell us. Let's see if we can guess. Billy Westmoreland, you go. Brook Walker Lunchbox.
B
Billy Smith.
C
My bill. Yeah.
B
Come on. I couldn't.
C
Bobby Bob Ben. Brian.
B
I mean, right when you said Billy, it just stuck in my head. I couldn't. I couldn't get it out.
C
Is it Buck?
A
No. What is it Barbara?
C
No, it's a girl. Or sexist. I think.
A
You would never get this last name. It's like wheelage or something like that. She lost the ring so long ago, she couldn't even recall how it ended up 1300 miles away. But she thought it was pretty cool to get it back. And it was just as shiny as it was on.
D
No way.
B
No way. There was no way.
C
They had to clean it first.
A
When he returned it, he returned it to her, shiny and new looking.
C
Amy's still waiting on hers back.
A
I'm going to be like Barbara. I'm going to be elderly of some sorts. I don't have her age.
C
I think Amy's offered like 10 grand for that thing.
A
You have?
C
Not like 10 grand. I have.
A
Well, so what is the offer?
C
We always Forget.
A
Mike knows.
C
1,500. And how much did I offer? 1450.
D
Why would you do that?
C
Why would I offer 14.50 to Amy's ring?
A
And I'm paying 50 bucks?
C
Apparently that's a deal we made a long time ago. Okay, good story. That is what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good. It's time for the good news with lunchbox.
A
Something good.

Kyle Todd was sitting there scrolling social media when he saw a post. A woman, her dog had fallen in the icy river. And he's like, that's right out my back door. He jumps out, runs down there, sees the woman, he gets her out. And the dog's farther out. He grabs a kayak in the icy water. And just before the dog goes under, the water puts him up on the kayak.
C
How do you see it on social media? Was somebody live streaming it?
B
I don't know. Someone had posted, hey, woman, dog fell in the river. We need help. I don't know exactly who posted it, but he saw it.

Yeah. Shout out to the algorithm. Yeah, that thing's always feeding me. 90s wrestling. This thing feeds them like, or things.

Imagine never buying gas again. EVs are easy to charge as your phone and perfect for everyday life. Now, most Americans only drive about 40 miles a day, and most EVs go 200 to 400 miles on a full charge. That's plenty. And with fewer parts, that means fewer repairs and fewer surprises at the mechanic. Anyone who has made the switch says the same thing. Once you go electric, you don't look back.

This episode is quintessential Bobby Bones Show: warm, real, and lightly irreverent. Pet panic turns to pet joy, ordinary birdwatchers find meaning (and humor) in their hobbies, parents unite in school-closure exhaustion, and good news is dished up in both national headlines and personal triumphs. Whether you need comfort after a loss, hope for lost treasures, or just a reminder that dogs (and kids) will do anything for treats and routine, this episode gives you a lift—and a laugh.
