Liberty Mutual Spokesperson (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.
Liberty Mutual Spokesperson's Partner
Hey, everyone, check out this guy and his bird. What is this, your first date? Oh, no.
Liberty Mutual Spokesperson (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.
Liberty Mutual Spokesperson's Partner
Yeah, the bird looks out of your league.
Liberty Mutual Spokesperson (Doug)
Anyways, only pay for what you need@libertymutual.com Liberty.
Liberty Mutual Spokesperson's Partner
Liberty. Liberty. Liberty.
Bob Hobby
Come on, it's time for the good news.
Liberty Mutual Spokesperson's Partner
Tell me something good.
Bobby Bones
Some of the good news for me is I actually feel a little better today. I Had a rough night last night where it was one of those nights where you call and a little bit, I think I've been affected by Lunchbox saying he had Covid. But I was feeling really bad so I called and got Covid. I Covid tested to my house.
Eddie (Producer)
Oh yeah?
Unidentified Male Guest
You good?
Abby
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You know you can get Covid tests and flu tests now in the same.
Eddie (Producer)
Yes.
Bobby Bones
No. How about that? Yes, I got a Covid and a Covid flu and I was feeling bad and so I took them negative and I fell asleep at like 6:30 or so and then I woke up at 8:30 and it was then you're just up. And that part sucks. But I don't have Covid and I don't have the flu and I'm actually feeling better today. I don't know what it is, but I had a wall so hard on both Monday afternoon and Tuesday afternoon shows where I can't even think straight. And then it just all kind of manifested itself all those two days into last night. I'm back. I don't have much else except Scuba. Steve hit me this morning with Scuba. You back?
Scuba Steve
Yeah, man, I'm here.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, Scuba hit me this morning with an email and they said, hey, on the cruise next year they're going to have a basketball court and a pickleball court. Oh, cool, that's cool. And I said, that's cool. Like you got this. And then he said, do you want to host something? I said, no, I want to play in something. I don't want to host crap. I want to play in a tournament. And it won't be like a full basketball tournament. I wouldn't want to do that. But a pickleball tournament I'd want to play in. And then I just want to play basketball. I just want to like play knockout or something. My dream. I've always wanted a bunker. You know what else? I want a gym.
Unidentified Male Guest
Like a real gym, like a basketball gym. Yeah, that'd be cool.
Eddie (Producer)
Like half court or full court?
Bobby Bones
It doesn't really matter.
Eddie (Producer)
Some people have a full court.
Bobby Bones
I wouldn't use a full court. Yeah, I wouldn't.
Unidentified Male Guest
But you don't know. You might have a bunch of kids and like we would totally use a full court.
Bobby Bones
You would use it. But I don't need a full court because we wouldn't use it 99% of the time. We used to have a full court basketball court in our backyard and fence. We never use full court ever. So for the most part you only use half. If there was a gym for Sale and I bought a gym and it was full court. I wouldn't go like, nah, I don't want it. But if I had limited space, I'd build a half court gym. That'd be awesome. I think that's what I want. A gym and then a bunker and an airplane.
Eddie (Producer)
Okay.
Unidentified Male Guest
All those things.
Bobby Bones
But I think in order of me buying them, it'd probably be a gym and then a bunker. The reason we don't do a bunker now is because I don't want to take the walls, like the gates down to our house. They're rock.
Eddie (Producer)
So why would you have to take the gates down?
Bobby Bones
Because you have to get machinery back there.
Eddie (Producer)
We have to take the whole wall down. Some of it. Maybe.
Bobby Bones
We did it with pickleball court. They had to take two thirds of it down on one side.
Eddie (Producer)
Oh, really?
Bobby Bones
And they had to rebuild the whole thing because they got to constantly bring equipment back and forth, so.
Eddie (Producer)
Well, how bad do you want the bunker?
Bobby Bones
I know. And then they're back there and the dogs can't go in the backyard because I'm preparing myself for the apocalypse. But the fact that on the cruise next year there's going to be a basketball court and a pickleball court, you're for sure about that, right?
Scuba Steve
Yes, yes, I'm pretty sure.
Bobby Bones
Why did you?
Scuba Steve
Well, because I've been told a lot of things last time and a lot of things didn't happen, so I tread lightly on anything. But to be positive, I know for sure that there's a basketball court. The pickleball thing, I've never seen a pickleball court on a cruise ship. I could be wrong.
Bobby Bones
I never seen elevators on a boat until this one.
Scuba Steve
True. Yeah. The basketball thing I'm confident about. They said pickleball, but I want to see it for myself.
Bobby Bones
If there's a basketball court, we can play some knockout. I'm good. I don't need to play. I don't need to play full court. Just play knockout. Get some cardio in a knockout or
Scuba Steve
some horse or something like that.
Bobby Bones
Horse or pig.
Eddie (Producer)
Pig.
Brianna Stewart
Pig.
Bobby Bones
So, yeah, that's mine. I don't have a lot because I went to bed pretty early last night and then I was miserably up. Oh, we started the wire.
Eddie (Producer)
Oh, okay. How was it?
Bobby Bones
We watched the first 10 minutes and I was like, I don't feel good. So we turned it off. Oh, I didn't know Idris Elba was in it.
Eddie (Producer)
Yeah, from way back in the day.
Bobby Bones
Well, yeah. I mean, the show's way back in the day you think it's current him on.
Eddie (Producer)
No, but it's like way back before we knew how awesome he was, I think.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, he's way skinny and young. So you don't even. I didn't even realize it was him at first.
Eddie (Producer)
It's sort of like watching George Clooney on er. You're like. You're like looking. If you start old episodes of er, you're like, what? This guy ended up being huge.
Bobby Bones
I don't know. I feel like I knew George Clooney from er.
Eddie (Producer)
I know. What I'm saying is if you go back to the first episode.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I know what you're saying. I'm just not down with it.
Eddie (Producer)
Hey, maybe you're not feeling well.
Bobby Bones
Maybe. I'm feeling pretty good today, though. But we started the wire, I guess I told my wife 10 minutes. I know. I was like, I hate that I gotta cut this off, but I gotta cut it. All right. So that's.
Eddie (Producer)
Mind you, I got a check in the mail from Holiday Harmony.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah.
Unidentified Male Guest
The gift that keeps on giving.
Eddie (Producer)
It is. It is the Christmas movie I was in a few years ago. And this check must be for the holiday streams because sometimes my checks are 40 bucks.
Bobby Bones
Oh, this is more.
Eddie (Producer)
Maybe even less. Sometimes they're 75.
Bobby Bones
Dang.
Eddie (Producer)
This one was triple digits.
Bobby Bones
300 bucks.
Eddie (Producer)
No.
Bobby Bones
Well, you held up three on your hand.
Eddie (Producer)
Triple digits. I thought too triple digits. It was 150s.
Unidentified Male Guest
Oh, that's pretty good.
Eddie (Producer)
$3.84 or something.
Bobby Bones
Then why did you hold up a three on your hand?
Eddie (Producer)
Triple digits.
Bobby Bones
No, I know.
Eddie (Producer)
Three, three. Num. Three, three.
Bobby Bones
It was just weird. You hold up the number three and then go triple digits.
Eddie (Producer)
One digit would be if it was $9 or less. Two digits would be if it was $10 to $99. And triple digits. Triple digits would be 100 to 999.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie (Producer)
So that was a fun mailbox surprise. You never know when they're going to come.
Unidentified Male Guest
So is that how like Tom Hanks gets his money?
Bobby Bones
I'm going to imagine that it goes to probably his business manager and it goes right into his account. Either one of the two direct deposit or to the business manager.
Unidentified Male Guest
Okay.
Eddie (Producer)
Yeah, mine's a physical check. Pretty sure it says like Warner Brothers.
Unidentified Male Guest
Awesome.
Eddie (Producer)
Thank you, Eddie.
Unidentified Male Guest
You okay? This is kind of cool. So my in laws left a couple days ago. I dropped them off at the airport and my mother in law calls me and says, yeah, your father in law lost his phone at the airport. Like he doesn't know where it Is he might have left it at C. Don't know. Well, I was like, just keep calling it, you know, maybe somebody will answer it. Well, they kept calling it. And some man answered, oh, wow. Really? Some man answered and goes, yeah, I found this phone. Yeah, by the. By the terminal. Is it yours? Like, yes. They're like, it's my phone. Can you please turn it into whatever airline they were flying? And they said, yeah, we'll do that. And then the airline, they confirmed that they had it. So yesterday, my wife went to the airport and picked up the phone.
Liberty Mutual Spokesperson's Partner
Nice.
Bobby Bones
That's crazy. Someone had it and answered it.
Caller
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
That's cool. Good one.
Unidentified Male Guest
Yeah, it's pretty cool. And she went to the. I guess the baggage claim. You know, by the baggage claim, there's the. Every airline has, like, a little office and lady had it right there on the desk. It's kind of where I went to go pick up my guitar. So, man, we've been there twice in one year.
Bobby Bones
I didn't officially start a new podcast, by the way. A lot of people think I have. Do you know about this?
Eddie (Producer)
I do not.
Bobby Bones
So I did. On YouTube, I did, oh, like Baby of the Union. A baby State of the Union. Baby of the Union. And I was just like, okay, I'm getting a lot of questions. Let me do Baby State of the Union. Cause it's all I was getting in Instagram DMs. And I'm happy about it. I was happy about it. I wasn't, like, angry. I gotta do this. I was like, no, I'm happy to do it. And it's just so many questions all the time. I said, well, what if I did, like, sporadically, just a YouTube video, 10, 15 minutes of me talking about whatever it is, whether people want to know. And then I was debating on names, and I had two names in mind. I was either going to call it because I like to brand everything. You know me, I want to brand everything. I was either going to call it Talk Daddy to Me or Father Knows Less instead of Father Knows Best.
Eddie (Producer)
So what did you settle on?
Bobby Bones
You tell me.
Eddie (Producer)
My gut was saying, Talk Daddy to Me, but then it's a little dirty.
Bobby Bones
I know.
Eddie (Producer)
So I feel like I ended up going with Father Knows Less and Talk
Bobby Bones
Daddy to Me itself is not dirty. But yes, it has connotation. And I think as a name, it sticks out the most. But I didn't want to always be like, hey, I did an episode of Talk Daddy To Me. It just felt so.
Eddie (Producer)
Because Daddy is like, I know it's taking the place of the word dirty. But then even daddy is dirty.
Bobby Bones
That's what I said. Every dude that I've talked about that to, they're like, oh, you gotta go and talk Daddy to me. And I'm like, that's exactly why I did it. And also, Father Knows Less is a play off an old television show called Father Knows Best. And also that's a saying too. But so I did an episode of that by myself, just put it on YouTube. I ended up putting up on the Bobby Kass feed, but it was like 25 minutes, nothing long. And then I did one with Lauren Elena, because she was overshooting some content for the the Celebrity Head Game. So I put another episode up on my Bobby Bones channel, YouTube. And then. But it's called Father Knows Less. It's doing pretty good. I don't know anything.
Eddie (Producer)
Right? Hence the name.
Unidentified Male Guest
Yeah, you're just learning.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I don't. I know nothing.
Eddie (Producer)
Yeah, yeah, you're figuring it out. You don't know nothing.
Bobby Bones
But no, I know nothing. I know.
Eddie (Producer)
We are learning.
Bobby Bones
There are so many parent shamers that don't even know their parent shaming. It's crazy the amount of people that tell you you're stupid for what you just said and what you're doing. Like, they're bad people.
Unidentified Female Speaker
Yeah.
Eddie (Producer)
I think they're just life shamers.
Bobby Bones
It's. There's so many parent shamers in my DMs. I can't believe you would do that. Like, you're just doing what you're doing based on the circumstances around you and the environment that you're in. And it's. It's work, but doesn't mean it would have been the greatest thing you could have done. You could have chosen a different thing and it could have been better, or you could have done something else and it could have been worse. But there are so many people that are so dead set that the only way that they've done it is the right way to do. Blows my mind that the general culture of talking about things as a parent is shame and people telling you how wrong you are. There have been some nice things, but for the most part it's been now you're so wrong and stupid about this. The whole name of the show is about me being stupid. Like, and I'm not purposefully saying stupid things. I admit, I know nothing. Yes. It's kind of a brutal environment. I see why people that do any sort of parent content like, this is not good for My mental health. So anyway. Sup? Sup? That's what's up.
Eddie (Producer)
Father knows Less.
Bobby Bones
You can't search it. It's just on my YouTube channel again. It's not an official podcast because people are like, you're doing another podcast? That's crazy. Like, nah, nah. This is random one offs for sure. Okay. Tell me something good, Morgan.
Morgan
I'm picking up a new hobby, like
Bobby Bones
Amy, who's learning French.
Morgan
Yes. It's a sport, though.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Morgan
And it combines two things. It's called Frisbee golf.
Unidentified Male Guest
I've heard of it.
Bobby Bones
I'm familiar.
Raymondo
Yeah.
Unidentified Male Guest
Yeah. It's not new.
Morgan
No, I know it's not new, but I've only played it one time before, and I was like, this is stupid.
Bobby Bones
But now get it on the cruise. Let's get Frisbee golf on the cruise.
Unidentified Male Guest
Oh, gosh. Frisbee's in the ocean.
Scuba Steve
That's all.
Bobby Bones
There are none left on the boat. Yes. When did you start playing Frisbee golf?
Morgan
I picked it up this last week because there's a place by my house that now offers it. And I was like, well, it's close by. I can bring my dog, and my boyfriend or my fiance is really into it. So I was like, why not try and figure this out? I'm not very good at it, though. And I've realized why I get frustrated starting new hobbies is because I like to be good at things.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's the frustrating part about new hobbies.
Morgan
Oh, my gosh. I was horrible. Like, my Frisbee was everywhere. It was nowhere near where the little not net thing or the chain net that it's supposed to go on. I just thought I would be kind of good at it. But no, I was horrible. So I don't know how long it's going to last.
Bobby Bones
Do you play in a park or on a golf course? Because they. At some public golf courses, they have those, like, on the sides of the holes.
Morgan
It's a park, and they have a whole course set up. So, like, different kind of areas to where you're supposed to start. I didn't really start where you're supposed to start because I don't think my Frisbee would have made it all the way. I'm learning small baby steps, but I
Bobby Bones
tried playing from the red tees.
Unidentified Male Guest
Yeah. Did you buy a whole set? Like your drivers, your irons and your putters and all that?
Podcast Host
Oh, no, no.
Bobby Bones
Really?
Morgan
My fiance has some of the Frisbee. You have to have Frisbees. They're. They're like these little specific frisbees for it. So he has a few. So I'm trying with his before I. Yeah. Fully invest.
Unidentified Male Guest
They have like a. Yeah, you're. The driver goes long and straighter. That's the idea. And then your irons or like even your putter so heavy. It doesn't really go that far. So that's your close range one.
Morgan
I saw people, they had whole backpacks full of different Frisbees.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's like a bag of clubs, but it's a bag of frisbees. It's pretty cool. I see it on my TikTok sometimes. It comes up in the end.
Unidentified Male Guest
You never played it?
Bobby Bones
Nah.
Unidentified Male Guest
Even when we were in Austin, Austin was kind of big.
Bobby Bones
I'm not a hater of it. I don't think I've ever thrown a frisbee at it. Whatever that's called. The net. The hole.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I don't know what it's called.
Unidentified Male Guest
They call it the hole.
Raymondo
No, I'm not a hater.
Bobby Bones
I just. I've never played and it's. If I'm gonna go and spend a couple hours out, I'd rather take the golf clubs.
Unidentified Male Guest
Yeah, same.
Bobby Bones
Although I haven't done that at all. You probably practice golf yesterday though, right? Getting ready for the big I heart tournament?
Eddie (Producer)
Yeah, I don't. I haven't been invited, so.
Unidentified Male Guest
So you're not practicing.
Bobby Bones
So wait, you're not gonna practice until you get invited, but you're not gonna get invited until you get better.
Eddie (Producer)
I know. Well, then I got an email yesterday that also I have to maybe film something. I don't know what time the golf event is, but I have to film something from cap for cap one Friday at like 2pm you could play. Would I be back?
Bobby Bones
You're not playing golf. But you would be back if.
Eddie (Producer)
Oh, I'd be back. So how early is it on Friday?
Bobby Bones
Early.
Abby
All right.
Bobby Bones
So early. I got to get in Thursday night.
Eddie (Producer)
Okay. I told you I had pants.
Unidentified Male Guest
Yeah, that's right.
Bobby Bones
That's what I send up the ladder.
Unidentified Male Guest
Guys, she has pants.
Eddie (Producer)
They are so when I tell you they're cute. They are so cute. They're plaid.
Morgan
They're cute.
Unidentified Male Guest
Plaid pants.
Bobby Bones
Yes, like an old school golfer paint Stewart.
Eddie (Producer)
Yeah, they're really, really, really cute.

Eating While Bro Host
It's Financial Literacy month and the podcast Eating While Bro, bringing real conversations about money, growth and building your future. This month hear from top streamer Zoe Spencer and venture capitalist lakeisha Landrum Pierre as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up.
Unidentified Female Speaker
If I'm outside with my parents and they're seeing all these people Come up to me for pictures. It's like, what, today? Now, Obviously, it's like 100%. They believe everything. But at first it was just like, you gotta go get a real job.
Economic Expert
There's an economic component to communities thriving. If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they fail. And what I mean by fails, they don't have money to pay for food. They cannot feed their kids. They do not have homes. Communities don't work unless there's money flowing through them.

Bobby Bones
Tell me something good, Raymondo.
Raymondo
Yeah, you guys are talking about iHeart that May 2nd weekend, and we just booked, so we are excited. We are going to Charleston that same weekend.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I thought you were iheart.
Raymondo
No, I never got invited. So I said, bazer, let's book something. So we're heading back to Charleston, baby.
Eddie (Producer)
Oh, I love Charleston.
Raymondo
I know. And especially this time of the year, it doesn't get too hot. All those restaurants, King street, the bars.
Bobby Bones
What do you love about it? I know you love the bars. What do you love about Amy?
Eddie (Producer)
Me, I just went for the first time last April, and it's the only time I've ever been. But, I mean, Ray said at restaurants, it was some of the best food ever. I still. I had a salad I still think about, and I've tried to recreate it at home, and it's something I definitely was not gonna order. And then our server was like, trust. People come from all over the country to have this salad. It's like a celery salad. And it was so good. So, like, the food, the walking around, the architecture, the. The people, the shopping, just the vibe. I don't know. I was only there for one weekend, but mostly we went around to different restaurants. Not like I experienced nightlife there or anything like that, but there's charm, there's character. It just felt good.
Bobby Bones
It's Ray's go to.
Raymondo
Yeah, it's because everybody there is a $60,000 millionaire. You dress nicer, you walk around like you're rich. It's great.
Bobby Bones
So you mean it's people faking like they're rich?
Badass Convict
Correct.
Eddie (Producer)
Okay.
Bobby Bones
How do you know they're actually not rich?
Raymondo
They probably are. We're the only ones that aren't. But it's awes. It's that type of city where you can just throw a sweatshirt over your shoulders and you have that educated feel. You can just hold a book in your hand and everybody's like, oh, he fits in. Like, stuff like that.
Eddie (Producer)
You can sit on a rooftop and you. And then you see the ocean and you're like. And you're. Yes. And you are surrounded. Ray's right. It's like a vibe. I don't know how to explain it.
Unidentified Male Guest
Is this the way, like, they set it up for tourists? Because there's no way, like the locals all dress up with sweaters and read books, right?
Bobby Bones
It's like people that go back home and you're like, no, man. Everywhere in New York, people are in their underwear and dressed up as Gumby. Right?
Raymondo
Like.
Bobby Bones
And you look at Spider Man's over there. It's like. It's crazy. Everybody does that.
Eddie (Producer)
Yeah. Have you. You've gone, right?
Bobby Bones
I've been a couple times, but I've gone normal Charleston. Play a show there. Just go eat somewhere. I don't. I never do tourist Charleston.
Eddie (Producer)
Yeah, we definitely did. And now I can't, of course, think of the names of the restaurants. But we, you know, made our reservations well in advance and it, I mean, I just thought it was charming and delicious.
Bobby Bones
Hey, I want to do this. Ray, would you hit voicemail 5? Since we're talking about traveling, I want to help this person.
Caller
I'm going to leave a pause.
Bobby Bones
Morning, studio. Morning.
Caller
My family and I are on our way to Nashville, Tennessee on a road trip. My son is 11, our daughter is 13. And we were wondering what you all recommend we can do in Nashville, Tennessee as a family. We are longtime listeners and we love the show.
Abby
Bye.
Bobby Bones
We get a lot of questions. People are like, what do we do? And I think it just matters, you know, how old you are. 11 and 13, man. I think going to the Opry is the best thing that you can do because that represents kind of what Nashville is. Because there's some old school music, usually some new school. It's also a massive tourist attract, like the Opry's fantastic if you can go to that. And also there's a place on Broadway. Now, Broadway used to just be bars and honky tonks. There's like this area of Broadway now that's newer and there's even a friggin Apple store there.
Eddie (Producer)
Fifth and Broad.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, fifth and Broadway. They have good restaurant. Like that's a fun place to go to if you don't just want to get sucked into all of, you know, the bars downtown. If you're just. If you're just adult, you got to do the bar stuff, not even get drunk just to go in Them and like, see what's up.
Eddie (Producer)
But didn't Ray say that also under there now there's the Nashville yards, where there is a. A putt putt or a mini golf thing. That's under Broadway.
Raymondo
Yeah, it's under Union Station. So it's just a couple blocks from 5th and Broad.
Eddie (Producer)
Yeah. So I think that would be if you want to experience. Because kids can't go into a lot of the places. But during the day, walking up and down Broadway is cool. And then there's a fifth and Broad, like where you talked about, where there's, you know, good food and shopping if you want to go in and out. But then underneath, I think it's called Nashville Yards, there's the golf or putt putt.
Bobby Bones
What would you tell people to do with an 11 and 13 year old? That just that.
Eddie (Producer)
Okay. I mean, anytime you can walk around, especially they're coming now where the weather's great. Like walking around, seeing that stuff, experiencing. Even walking by the bars, you hear the live music. You can pop into some restaurants, get ice cream, walk around, do the putt, and then I'm with you on that. Taking them to a show at the Opry, if they want to go out there, that would be super cool.
Bobby Bones
The Opry's not right next to downtown. It's 20 minutes away.
Eddie (Producer)
Don't be fooled. Most of my friends that come to town to visit, they're like, wait, what?
Unidentified Male Guest
Same with the Bluebird. They're like, oh, we're at the Bluebird. It's kind of outside of town a little bit.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, not as far, but definitely not downtown. And the Bluebird. If you can get into the Bluebird, go to the Bluebird. It's just almost impossible to get in because it's so small and people line up. But if you can get into the Bluebird, it doesn't matter who's playing, go to the Bluebird.
Eddie (Producer)
And if the weather is, well, I guess the mini golf and Nashville yards is underground. But right down the street from us we have what putt shack is that? A chain is. Okay, so it's still cool. It's.
Morgan
It's really cool.
Eddie (Producer)
We had my son's birthday there last year and the kids loved it. I mean, there was adults there with their crew and then kids there with their crew. So it's very entertaining for all ages.
Bobby Bones
It's a good weather time. So if you're coming now, like, go to the park where the Parthenon is, because Parthenon's interesting. That's just an exact replica Size and everything of the Parthenon and, like, Greece,
Unidentified Male Guest
although it is under construction, so.
Raymondo
Oh, it is.
Unidentified Male Guest
Yeah. We went, like, a couple days ago, and they were closed, but you can still see it.
Bobby Bones
You couldn't get your Parthenon on.
Eddie (Producer)
You can't go in it. But it'll be a quick visit. You know, you see it. You see it, and you're like, that's cool. And then the kids will be like, cool. What's next? And then there's a lot of pigeons,
Bobby Bones
but there's a big park, too.
Eddie (Producer)
Yes, yes, yes.
Bobby Bones
Okay, that's fun, Ray. Good job, Abby. You got one.
Abby
Yes. The Nashville Half Marathon is coming up in two and a half weeks, and I haven't really been training that much because I haven't felt good. Yeah. But yesterday I ran nine miles without stopping, so that felt good. The weather was just so nice, and I couldn't stop those endorphins.
Bobby Bones
Holy crap going.
Unidentified Male Guest
Are you raising money again? Is this time to, like, ask for money?
Abby
I am. Evie, are you wanting to donate?
Unidentified Male Guest
I thought that was coming, so I'm like, let's go.
Abby
No, I wasn't. I actually wasn't. I didn't want to put anybody on the spot, but I have to fill
Bobby Bones
Lunchbox's roll since he's not here.
Unidentified Male Guest
How much money do you want, Abby?
Abby
Yeah, whatever you want to give.
Bobby Bones
Have you met your goal?
Abby
No, I haven't.
Bobby Bones
What's your goal?
Abby
A little ways off. 5,000.
Bobby Bones
What was it last year?
Abby
I think it was 5,000, maybe 3,000.
Bobby Bones
It was less.
Abby
Oh, yeah. I think I was a little ambitious.
Eddie (Producer)
Well, wait, so where are you in the.
Abby
About 1500?
Eddie (Producer)
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Do you ever see the people that do a GoFundMe and then they hit their goal and they raise it? I'm always a little annoyed by them. This is not Abby. But it's like, I'm doing a GoFundMe. Cause I need my car fixed. And then they hit their goal of 1200, and they're like, oh, I just moved it to 3000. You don't even need it. That's annoying. Like, set your goal, and when you get it, be like, thank you, everybody. Now that I met my goal. You know what? While you're at it, give me more. That I always feel. Don't do that, Abby.
Abby
I won't. But I've seen that a lot.
Unidentified Male Guest
Abby, what's your. What's your. Like, where are you going to? You going door to door? Like, how are you getting money?
Abby
Well, I've been, like, texted my family and friends. And I'm like, if you want to, because I don't like to make people be on the spot. And then I'm just posting on Facebook and Instagram.
Bobby Bones
So, Abby, good luck.
Abby
I can, you know, send you a
Eddie (Producer)
text and it's two. Two weeks away.
Abby
Two and a half. Yeah.
Eddie (Producer)
Okay.
Bobby Bones
I think a lot of people heard she wasn't training, so they weren't donating.
Abby
No, I'm back now.
Bobby Bones
That's word on the street. She wasn't putting in the work.
Abby
I put it in yesterday, so.
Bobby Bones
All right, there you go. That's it. That's. Tell me something good. That's what it's all about. Go ahead.
Bob Hobby
That was. Tell me something good. It's time for the good news with Bob Hobby.
Bobby Bones
A 2 year old has overcome stage 4 liver cancer.
Badass Convict
Wow.
Bobby Bones
2. Following a transplant from his aunt Love that diagnosed last March when doctors discovered a cancerous mass in his liver. The boy, whose name is Crew, underwent multiple rounds of aggressive chemotherapy before receiving the transplant. Last summer, when his aunt Taylor Darth was confirmed as a match. How much of a relief is that that you are a match? Because they can test everybody and nobody can be a match. Wow. After surgery, both Crew and his aunt Taylor are fine. Nine months later, he has completed his treatment. His family marked the milestone by ringing the bravery bell at Cleveland's clinic's children's hospital. And the mom is just like, this is crazy because the mom, I don't think the mom matched, which is wild.
Eddie (Producer)
I know that would be. You would think like as a mom and you want to do anything to help your son and you can't.
Bobby Bones
That's crazy. Great story. That's from Good Morning America. That is what it's all about.
Bob Hobby
That was tell me something good. It's time for the good news with

Ben O'Reilly is seven years old and he goes to Campton elementary in New Hampshire. But he's deaf, so it's hard for him to make friends. And nobody knows sign language or anything except two students in his class were like, hey, you know what? Let's try to learn sign language so we can talk to Ben a little bit. Well, one student did it. More students did it. The teacher. Before you know it, the whole school is now learning sign language just so they can communicate with Ben and make them feel comfortable at school.
Bobby Bones
That's great that all those kids learn to do that. Ah, great story. Good one. That's what it's all about.
