Story Segment: Man Awakens After a 40-Year Coma

[03:25] Bobby Bones:
Bobby kicks off the episode by sharing a fascinating and emotional story about a man who wakes up from a coma after 40 years. The individual believes it's still 1980—the year he suffered the accident that led to his coma. This amnesia has erased four decades of his memories, leaving him to adjust to a world vastly different from the one he last remembers.

Bobby Bones:
"It's wild to think that you wake up and you're just old. It's like you went to sleep tonight and wake up 40 years later." (03:25)

Leah:
"That's Rip Van Winkle logic, but it's actually real." (03:58)

As the story unfolds, Bobby highlights the challenges the man faces in piecing his life back together, coping with an adult child he never knew, and a spouse who is actually his girlfriend from before the accident. The man’s struggle is compounded by the unresolved hit-and-run incident that led to his condition, leaving him without justice or compensation.

Bobby encourages listeners to imagine waking up after such a long time and asks his co-hosts to reflect on the significant events of the past 40 years that they would share with someone re-entering society.

"Selfish or Sweet?" Segment: Soldier Surprises Brother at Wedding

[33:09] Lunchbox:
The discussion shifts to a viral video where a Marine Corps veteran surprises his brother at his wedding by arriving in uniform. While some view this gesture as heartwarming, Bobby Bones probes deeper into whether the act was genuinely sweet or inadvertently selfish.

Lunchbox:
"He absolutely stole the wedding day. It made it all about him." (33:09)

Bobby Bones:
"The video shows family in shock when a soldier son surprises them at his brother's wedding. It's sweet, but was it overshadowing the couple's moment?" (34:04)

The co-hosts debate the intentions behind the surprise, considering factors such as timing and the emotional impact on the wedding couple. Leah and Amy weigh in, suggesting that while the soldier’s intent was likely positive, the execution might have inadvertently taken focus away from the bride and groom's special day.

Amy:
"Sometimes the gesture can feel more about you than the occasion you're attending." (34:05)

Ultimately, the segment concludes that the act has both sweet and selfish elements, highlighting the complexities of surprising someone at such a significant life event.

Interactive Game: Never Have I Ever

In a lively round of "Never Have I Ever," Bobby Bones and his co-hosts share personal experiences and revelations about things they've never done, fostering a fun and revealing atmosphere.

[42:02] Bobby Bones:
"Never have I ever been to an adult club, a dance, never a place where they do adult dance." (42:02)

Leah:
"I've never left the country, and I don't even have a passport. It's crazy everyone has one." (43:57)

Lunchbox:
"I've broken my right arm twice as a child and once more in seventh grade." (43:28)

The game progresses with each co-host sharing intriguing tidbits about themselves, such as never having tried coffee, never having tattoos, or never breaking a bone. These admissions lead to humorous exchanges and a deeper understanding of each other's backgrounds and preferences.

Amy:
"I've never broken any kind of bone whatsoever." (43:44)

Lunchbox:
"I broke my right arm twice at the age of four." (43:28)

This segment not only entertains but also strengthens the camaraderie among the hosts, offering listeners a glimpse into their unique personalities and experiences.

"Blind Karaoke: Public Domain Edition"

[24:13] Bobby Bones:
One of the episode’s highlights is the "Blind Karaoke" segment, where participants sing well-known public domain songs without the aid of lyrics on screen. This game tests their memory and improvisational skills, often resulting in humorous and endearing performances.

Leah:
"Let's go, Old MacDonald. Let's go, Old MacDonald." (24:35)

Amy:
"Yankee Doodle went to town riding on a pony..." (26:12)

Lunchbox (Dirty Dawn):
"This little light of mine's gonna shine..." (30:27)

Participants take turns performing classics like "Old MacDonald" and "Yankee Doodle," with varying levels of success. Bobby Bones provides gentle encouragement and playful critiques, enhancing the fun atmosphere.

Bobby Bones:
"You guys are frying my brain. I just need to go listen to some normal music." (08:22)

The segment concludes with Abby's impressive rendition of "Amazing Grace," earning her the title of the winner of the first-ever public domain Blind Karaoke round.

Bobby Bones:
"Abby, you win our first ever public domain. Do you want to come sing Amazing Grace while we get out of here?" (31:38)

Listener Interaction: Eyeglass Store Dilemma

[09:01] Bobby Bones:
Bobby reads an email from a listener who recounts an awkward experience at an eyeglass store. The listener admits to inadvertently staring at a salesperson with exaggerated physical features, leading to tension with his wife.

Listener's Email:
"I got in trouble with my wife for looking because it was hard not to look. She had not so nice words for me. On the way home, I told her she can't be mad at me for looking at someone if they're right in my face. I wasn't staring intentionally." (09:01)

Bobby Bones:
"If you're with your wife, there are women walking around all the time... Just because this woman wore a low cut shirt doesn't mean you have the ability and the right to stare." (11:15)

The hosts engage in a discussion about respect and boundaries in relationships, emphasizing the importance of honoring one's partner by avoiding actions that might make them feel disrespected or insecure.

Amy:
"You can also know that it's going to be disrespectful to the person next to you." (10:02)

Bobby Bones:
"It's about your wife and the respect. So some wives don't care, but it's about the understanding." (12:04)

The conversation highlights the nuanced nature of interpersonal relationships, advising listeners to be mindful of their actions and considerate of their partners' feelings.

Hey, welcome to Thursday show Morning Studio. Morning. I was reading the story this morning about this guy who woke up from a coma a few years ago, and he thinks. Well, he thought it was 1980 because that's when he was involved in an accident. Erased 40 years of his memory. Oh. So now he has a kid, an adult kid. And his girlfriend then is his wife now. But that's wild to not. You wake up and you're just old. It's just like you went to sleep. It's like you go to sleep tonight and you wake up and it's 40 years later.

The hit and run driver responsible for his condition was never found, leaving him without justice or compensation from the son. 40 years. I was thinking about, what are the biggest things that have happened in the last 40 years? Like what?

[Bobby Bones]

Can'T listen to that.

[Amy]

Wearing Abromby, cuz.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, don't wear that.

[Amy]

That like as of yesterday.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, what a fun little. What a fun little bit. We just did that.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

How about that guy, though? Lost 40 years of memories.

[Leah]

Crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Like they had to do that with him. I wonder if his family did the same events you guys did to me. For sure. Probably same, right? Yeah. Anonymous in box. There's a question to be had. Send it into the mail. Hello, Bobby Bones. The other day, my wife and I were in an eyeglass store and the young woman helping us out had giant fake breasts and was wearing a very low cut top. It was hard not to stare. I got in trouble with my wife for looking because it was hard not to look. She had not so nice words for me. On the way home, I told her she can't be mad at me for looking at someone if what they're showing me is right in my face. I wasn't staring intentionally. I'm not even a boob guy, you dummy. What do you guys think? And to the ladies on the show, would you be upset if you and your partner were speaking to another woman who had her boobs hanging out and they started to stare? Sign Not a boob guy. So the fact that it was hard not to look is not an excuse.

[Amy]

For you to adult.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, you're an adult. And there are a lot of things in life that are hard to do. It's hard not to eat that second piece of cheesecake.

[Amy]

Like when I see blood, I'm like, ew. And I don't look.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but you don't want to look at that. That's ew.

[Amy]

Exactly.

[Leah]

He said no, he don't want to look.

[Bobby Bones]

But it's. But it's a different.

[Lunchbox]

It's like a train wreck, though. You don't want to look, but you look.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's not even train wreck because you don't like that that happened. This. You cannot be a boob guy and not be a butt guy and still enjoy boobs or butt. It could just be your second on the list.

[Amy]

But you can also know that it's going to be disrespectful to the person next to you.

[Bobby Bones]

And that's the point of this whole thing that's when you go, e. No, you don't get. Okay, maybe you lie. Hey, guy, that's on you. You got caught. So either one, be a little more inconspicuous or two, don't do it. And I don't think she would have got mad. If you're just like looking. You were like just kind of pulled your eye, but you can't. There are things everywhere and every place you go. If you're with your wife, there are women walking around all the time there. If you're like attaching your eyes to every, that is disrespectful to her. And just because this woman wore a low cut shirt doesn't mean you have the ability and the right to stare. If your wife is with you, it doesn't matter if she's trying to show them off or not. It's about your wife and the respect. So some wives don't care. Like, lunchbox, if that was happening with you, what would your wife say?

[Lunchbox]

My wife would be like, man, those things were hanging out, weren't they? Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

What if you like were looking like two or three times?

[Lunchbox]

That would, she'd be like, oh, I saw you looking. I'd be like, yeah. She goes, they're hard not to look at, aren't they? They were nice seeing if that were the situation.

[Leah]

That's nice.

[Bobby Bones]

And that's the understanding. You can do it however it feels like that now it's on you. You need to suffer the consequences. And that. And that's, that's a stiff word from your life.

[Amy]

Lunchbox. What if your wife is staring at a guy's.

[Bobby Bones]

Guys.

[Lunchbox]

What, what, what is he looking to?

[Bobby Bones]

Just say show. Biceps.

[Amy]

Biceps. His biceps are bolting out of his shirt and his sleeves are a little too tight. And she's like, what? And she can't stop staring at his body. Like, you would just be like, yeah, it's. It's hard not to look at.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I would, I'd just be like.

[Bobby Bones]

Some dude is really cut up.

[Amy]

You'd be like, yeah, that's nice.

[Lunchbox]

I don't care. And that's who she's coming home to.

[Bobby Bones]

Here we go, Dada. But don't your kids call you that exact term too?

[Lunchbox]

I meant to say daddy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, no, no, yeah, I know.

[Lunchbox]

I meant to say daddy.

[Bobby Bones]

That got a little weird, even for me and him, because I heard kids call him that.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah. I was just used to being called dad after the kids. I was thinking she was going to call me daddy.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, email her. The question here isn't Is it okay if you look or not? The question here is, is your wife going to feel disrespected if you look or not? And that's what you have to deal with if she feels disrespected. So now you have to deal with that. Don't do it.

[Lunchbox]

He didn't mean to, man. Like the sale.

[Bobby Bones]

You mean to.

[Lunchbox]

But the salesperson is also at blame because she's. She is there, and she's doing that on purpose. She's throwing those in your face.

[Bobby Bones]

That's. Sure.

[Lunchbox]

It's like, if ice cream's right there, you're gonna. You're gonna taste it.

[Bobby Bones]

What?

[Leah]

No, you're not.

[Bobby Bones]

If you're staying away from the ice cream.

[Leah]

I don't know, man.

[Lunchbox]

Ice cream's not even my first choice.

[Bobby Bones]

You messed up. Oh, you're more of like a cookies guy.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I'm more of a cookies.

[Bobby Bones]

But you still like ice cre.

[Lunchbox]

But I still like it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Guy. You messed up. Your wife has every right to be mad. So either get better at faking it, hiding it, wear sunglasses, or don't.

[Lunchbox]

Or go back without your wife.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, what do you have for us here?

[Amy]

I have situations when you should stay silent.

[Bobby Bones]

That's tough.

[Leah]

Oh, like if a bear is in front of you.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I'm not staying silent. They're going to hear my urine all over the ground. So you're saying, like, situations with people where we probably want to say something, but we just should keep our mouth shut.

[Amy]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Go ahead.

[Amy]

Okay. Be silent if you don't know the full story.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, Good advice. I probably have trouble with that.

[Leah]

Sometimes you throw in your opinion before they're.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I think I try to fill in the story based on my experience of similar situations, which isn't always fair, but I. That's a good point. Go ahead.

[Amy]

This next one is for me, be silent when you feel too emotional, because then your emotions are in the driver's seat. And really our emotions should ride passenger. So sometimes we need to maybe wait. Struggle with that one down. Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like when I get emotional, I. I am silent. I'm the opposite. I just shut up. What else?

[Amy]

When there's anger, like, in the heat of anger, be silent.

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like that's me.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

If I'm angry. Turtle shell, then I'm gonna figure it out, and then I'm gonna come out of my turtle show fully figured out. I think one of the learning curves that my wife and I, who have different communication styles, had to deal with was I Was so used to doing everything by myself that if there was any sort of issue or problem or something to figure out, I would just, okay, go away, figure it out, come back full, and just like, this is what we're gonna do. She's like, wait, I don't know where your brain went, how you figured this out, and why we're doing this, But I was just so used to going, there's a problem. I will go away. I will figure it out and come back and just go, this is what we're doing. I didn't even go like, hey, I went away. And this is what I think and why we're doing it. It was like, this is it. Just because I was so used to that. So now I show my work a little bit during school. They'd be like, show your work. So a little bit I show my work. What else you got?

[Amy]

Be silent if you can't talk without yelling.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't yell. Not really an issue, I think. And my wife at times will ask, will be like, can't you just yell or something? If you're mad, she will say that to me, like, just be emotional. Yell. And she's not saying at her, but she's like, if you're upset, just let it go.

[Amy]

Because I feel like sometimes showing anger. Not even. Sometimes I feel like anger is. Is. Is a good thing and can show that you actually care, which I know that you care, but you shut down.

[Bobby Bones]

You know how I care? I'm silent.

[Amy]

Yeah, be silent. If your words can offend a person or destroy a friendship, I think those.

[Bobby Bones]

Are two different things. I don't think that I'm silent if I'm worried about offending somebody. Because sometimes I don't know. And also I feel like I also don't think that everybody's truth is the truth. I think a lot of times I feel like if I just say the truth, which is my truth, and even if it's uncomfortable, we'll get through that quicker and get to actually fixing the problem earlier, even though it's really uncomfortable and somebody may get offended. So I don't. I'm not always silent. Then I'm like, let me just say it. Let me just say how I feel once it's time to say it so we can go and move on with our life. But, yeah, I feel you.

[Amy]

And then be silent about your plans and goals. Like, sometimes if you talk about those too soon.

[Bobby Bones]

Dumbest thing ever heard.

[Amy]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

You tell people your goals, they help you get them.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah. No, I agree. I think there's a time first down.

[Bobby Bones]

The job ought to be CEO. All right.

[Leah]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow. Wow. Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah. But I think it's just maybe putting stuff out there too soon when you're not ready, and then you feel like, this pressure, and then you're like, shoot, why'd I say that? Now I'm not even going to do it. Like, you know, Eddie donating and Morgan or.

[Bobby Bones]

That's pretty dumb. That's pretty dumb. You should have said that. You should stay silent there. I agree.

[Leah]

I should have. I guess now you guys make fun of me.

[Bobby Bones]

That was not a goal, like an achievement goal. That was just you following through.

[Leah]

Someday I would like to donate a kidney.

[Amy]

It is a goal of his, Bobby.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, but that's to do that. He could do it tomorrow. He could go and start the process. A goal of like, an achievement takes a lot of work to do and people to help you.

[Amy]

But what about his chicken business?

[Bobby Bones]

He doesn't really want it.

[Leah]

I do want it.

[Bobby Bones]

No, you don't. You want it just to happen without actually doing the work.

[Leah]

I want my chickens all over this country.

[Bobby Bones]

But you're doing nothing to make that happen.

[Leah]

You don't know that.

[Bobby Bones]

I believe in sharing your goals as quick as possible with the people that can help you achieve those goals. I don't believe in saying, I want donate kidney. If you're not going to donate a.

[Leah]

Kidney one day, I will.

[Amy]

Well, sometimes, if you're not getting younger, bro. What about. What about the risk of sharing too much about your plans and goals and someone taking the idea.

[Leah]

Oh, that's good.

[Amy]

You have to tell trusted people, if they.

[Bobby Bones]

They're better than you at it, they win.

[Amy]

Oh, you'd be like, that's my idea. I told you that.

[Bobby Bones]

It's. If it's intellectual property, then if you're all smart about it, trademark it.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, yeah, but I. I believe in sharing your goals, but I think there's a lot of. There's a lot of knowledge in that.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Stay silent whenever you don't know what you're talking about, which I could do a better job, but if I also did that, we wouldn't have a show at lunchbox.

[Leah]

You're doing a great job right now.

[Amy]

You're not yelling.

[Lunchbox]

Hey, I'm not yelling. I'm not sharing my goals because I don't want you guys to steal them.

[Bobby Bones]

We like that. Yeah. Yeah. All right.

Alvin is a mailman from Dallas, Texas, and he's been doing this for 20 years. But he's also a Marine Corps veteran. So he's at work, he's going through his mailbag and at the very bottom he finds these old letters. Like what is this? It's a Christmas card from 1942, which is World War II.

[Bobby Bones]

Do we think that no one had gotten to the bottom of the bag?

[Leah]

I guess there are like so many hampters in like the mailroom or whatever that sometimes mail just gets lost in those Things.

[Bobby Bones]

Would you call them a hampter?

[Leah]

Hamper.

[Amy]

Hamper.

[Leah]

Hamper.

[Bobby Bones]

But from 1942, and he's, like, reaching the bottom. Gee.

[Leah]

So he finds that and a bunch of other letters from that same time. He's like, this is crazy. He looks at them. They're addressed to Mr. And Mrs. Henry Lamb of Jacksonville, Ark. He's like, these are World War II letters from a soldier. So he got in his own car on his day off, drove 379 miles, found the people that it was addressed to and delivered to him themselves.

[Bobby Bones]

Are they still alive?

[Leah]

They're still alive. Yeah. I mean, the family. Somebody of the family, whoever owned that house, whether it's like a daughter, a son or whatever. Yeah, they were still there in their 80s.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm gonna be willing to bet that if that mailman wasn't a former veteran. Veteran, sure. He's veteran now, but a former military member. He wouldn't have done that. I don't know. Some mailman are good, but I bet that meant extra to him because he had also served. Yeah. And also I hear that, like, if you can get a job as a mailman, that's like, the greatest job. Why? Benefits like a government job. You get all the holidays off.

[Leah]

Yeah, but they all seem like they're in a bad mood. Not my mailman. My mailman's, like, always nice, but just people at the post office don't seem very happy.

[Bobby Bones]

But that's not a mailman.

[Amy]

But also, sometimes people in line at the post office, the customers are. Can be equally as rude.

[Leah]

And the lighting in there.

[Bobby Bones]

But also not a mailman. Those are postal worker. There's a distinct difference there. I'm always weirded out by the mailman with the. Or mail woman, whatever. With the steering wheel on the wrong side.

[Leah]

Yeah. You guys can go to, like, London and just, like, kill it.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't think about that.

[Leah]

Just, like, drive.

[Bobby Bones]

They feel better driving in the uk. That's a great story. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good. I. Blind karaoke. You will sing these songs with no lyrics in front of you. Eddie will go first. All these songs are public domain, meaning we don't have to pay for them.

[Leah]

Oh, yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Raymundo, let's hit her up. We'll get out of here. With Abby singing Amazing Grace.

[Leah]

Come on, Abigail.

[Lunchbox]

That's what Amazing Grace is.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm about to yell Peter. It's so sweet. I'm about to yell Peter. I'm about to yell Peter. All right, here she is, everybody. Abby.

[Amy]

Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me we're gonna go.

[Bobby Bones]

We're gonna go into. Abby's just gonna keep singing to us. Only in the room. Okay, we'll be back in a minute, everybody. So selfish or sweet that's the question we're gonna ask Lunchbox. What's the story?

[Lunchbox]

So there. I saw this video on Twitter. I think People magazine posted. This guy's getting married, and his brother surprises him at the wedding. He's been deployed, and he just shows up in uniform and, oh, my goodness, look who's here. And I watched the video, and usually I'm like, oh, these are cool, these reunions, like at a high school basketball game or whatever.

[Bobby Bones]

Cool.

[Lunchbox]

This one, I thought, selfish. Absolutely selfish of this dude. He absolutely stole the wedding day. He is all the talk. It's not a talk. It's not talking about how great the bride looked, how happy the couple look. It was selfish. It made it about him.

[Bobby Bones]

The video says, family in shock when soldier son surprises them at his brother's wedding. And like, his brother, his parents were like, oh, my God. Now it is very much so about. At least this video is about the brother coming back. So sure.

[Lunchbox]

It's selfish.

[Leah]

It's tricky.

[Lunchbox]

It's selfish.

[Bobby Bones]

This is a little trickier than I thought it would be once I started.

[Amy]

To think about, like, I said, Brighton on it.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, it looks like nobody was in on it.

[Leah]

Oh, man.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You should do it like.

[Bobby Bones]

Like the day before or rehearsal dinner.

[Lunchbox]

There you go.

[Bobby Bones]

I hate that. I hate that. I'm not thinking. It's. I know.

[Leah]

Because he's coming from war.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Leah]

He meant well, you know, deployed well, whatever.

[Bobby Bones]

Maybe not. Okay, here's some audio. Here you go. Play this.

[Amy]

Oh, my God.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, it's so good to see you.

[Leah]

I'm so glad you were able to make it, man.

[Amy]

Oh, that's sweet.

[Leah]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

But where are they? Because they're taking pictures before the wedding. They're all dressed in the houses. And I'm still gonna go. I'm still. It's tough, but I'm still gonna go, sweet. But I would say that probably the bride, probably the groom are a little bit like, man, we would have loved to have had this feeling. Not on the day of the wedding. The day before. I'm still gonna go, sweet. But just. It is. There can be nuance.

[Amy]

There is. I'm hearing the clip. I'm with you. Sweet.

[Bobby Bones]

A lot of the people that are doing that, though, are like, the mom and stuff. Not the groom.

[Leah]

Not the groom.

[Bobby Bones]

Doesn't either. The groom goes, oh, you made it. It.

[Amy]

I think he said, I'm so glad you're here, man.

[Bobby Bones]

He did? Yeah. Yeah, right?

[Lunchbox]

You're glad your brother's there, but it's.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, day before, you'd have been really glad, too.

[Lunchbox]

It stole the thunder. The. It's not about the wedding anymore. It's about the surprise of the brother.

[Amy]

Okay, but when you first sold it, I was picturing them, like, at the ceremony and the brides walking down the aisle and the.

[Bobby Bones]

No, they're just taking pictures for the wedding. Like, they're in their tux. They're about to do it.

[Leah]

I thought they're about to be like, kiss The. Hold on. Here he is.

[Amy]

That's what I was picturing, too, in his uniform.

[Bobby Bones]

I will say it's. That's not the method that I would have done. I'm still gonna go with sweet. I'm just not gonna go that it's selfish for somebody from the military to come home. I'm not gonna commit to that one. Yeah, but, man, the. The night before, like, the rehearsal dinner would have probably been better. Yeah. Because imagine you're the bride. That's not your brother. It's your. Your groom.

[Amy]

Okay, but what if that was the. Sometimes you can't choose the day you arrive from a deployment.

[Matt]

Like, you have to get leave.

[Amy]

You have to get permission.

[Lunchbox]

But if you're doing this surprise thing, you get permission. And you can pick the day.

[Bobby Bones]

Obviously, you can do it maybe earlier in the day, or you can do it. You. You go in and wear your normal clothes and watch the. The wedding. And then at the rehearsal dinner, you're like, guess who's. Or not rehearsal, but the.

[Leah]

The reception.

[Bobby Bones]

Reception. Guess who's here. I just think there's a. No. I don't know, but I just think there's. Yeah, I think there's a better way. For the bride's sake, I'm gonna say.

[Leah]

Sweet, because it could have been worse. Like, the way I envisioned it. Like, Amy was saying they weren't gonna.

[Bobby Bones]

Walk in while they're going down the aisle. Nobody ever has done that.

[Leah]

But, like, playing the wedding song at.

[Amy]

Graduation, like, the kids walking, that's about.

[Bobby Bones]

A lot of people. That's about 500 people or 300 people, not two.

[Leah]

I. I still think it's sweet.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm gonna go sweet. I would have preferred it at the rehearsal because the family would have got the same moment, and hopefully nobody felt like their moment was taken from them.

[Leah]

Lunchbox. You think selfish?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I think absolutely selfish.

[Amy]

But then if you voice that you feel like your mom feel selfish, right?

[Lunchbox]

Exactly. The bride just has to swallow her.

[Leah]

Her.

[Lunchbox]

Her disappointment. Be like, man, my wedding day got overshadowed, and it was all about the brother. It wasn't about me.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, a lot of people are gonna be talking about the brother being there too. You know that, right? Everybody, you know that, right?

[Lunchbox]

I mean, People magazine, they didn't show a picture of the bride. They showed a picture of the brother.

[Bobby Bones]

It is a good video. I like the video, though, Bones.

Never have I ever something that they've never done that most other people have done. And so I listed mine and we'll go around the room. But I've never drank alcohol. I've never watched the Lion King. I've never been punched in the face. Although I hate saying that one because I feel like someone wants to break that. Like someone be like, I'll show him.

[Leah]

Yeah, we can fix that real easy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I've never been to an adult club, a dance, never a place where they do adult dance. I've never been to One.

[Amy]

We don't need to change that. It's good.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, I don't know what we're.

[Bobby Bones]

Waiting for, but we're not waiting.

[Lunchbox]

We're running out of time. That's what I'm saying.

[Bobby Bones]

So that those would be a few of mine. Like, I've never been to an adult establishment like that. Never been in a physical, like punch in the face fight. No Lion King, no drugs, no alcohol.

[Leah]

Dang. It's a lot.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, just think a night at the dance club, a drink.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, dance club. I've been to clubs.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, I'm talking that kind of club.

[Bobby Bones]

Right, right. So you could do all that and.

[Lunchbox]

Then you get in a fight at the club because someone's looking at your girl. Yeah.

[Leah]

Get punched in the face.

[Lunchbox]

I mean that would be three. Three birds, one stone.

[Bobby Bones]

But I'm not, I'm not looking for those birds.

[Amy]

All while you're watching Lion King on your phone.

[Leah]

Right, right.

[Bobby Bones]

I can wipe.

[Lunchbox]

Someone could be dressed up as Amy.

[Bobby Bones]

Never have you ever.

[Amy]

Well, this came up with some friends the other day. Cuz I was the only one that never broken anything. Like they had all broken like as a kid. Broken an arm, broken a leg, broken something. I've never broken any kind of bone whatsoever.

[Bobby Bones]

Good for you. Anybody? I've broken a rib and a couple fingers. High school football stuff, but nothing. Nothing big. But I've broken a couple things. You guys broke anything?

[Leah]

Never broken anything.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, cool.

[Amy]

Oh, wow.

[Lunchbox]

I broken my right arm twice. So the age of four, I. My brother pushed me off the slide in the backyard and I broke it it. And then the day after I got the cast off, I broke it again.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

So because my mom told the doctor, hey, it's not healed. And they're like, yeah, it is. And they took the cast off, I broke it again. And so my whole four year old, I have a cast on my arm. And that's how my artwork is all left handed. Squirrels. I did a lot of tornadoes. And then I broke my left arm in seventh grade. Summer before seventh grade.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, you have bad arms, bro. Feels like you just have bad arms.

[Lunchbox]

Broke. I was playing on the playscape. Slipped and then I've broken toes and.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh man. But you two are break free.

[Amy]

Yeah, break free nothing.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie, never have you ever wife.

[Leah]

You know, not including Mexico. I've never really left the country. And I grew up seven miles north of Mexico, so that was normal.

[Bobby Bones]

You lived basically in Mexico.

[Leah]

But I've never really. I've never gone to Canada. And people are like oh, you got to go to London. England's be never left the country. Really. I don't even have a passport. That's crazy. Everyone has a passport. I don't. I've never gotten a passport.

[Bobby Bones]

Passport. I know that everybody has one, but I think in our industry, a lot of people travel a lot, so it feels a lot more normal than you think.

[Leah]

But when I say, like, oh, I gotta get a passport, everybody, like, you don't have a passport.

[Bobby Bones]

But I think that's just kind of where you live, in the people you're around. Because we live in a place where there's a lot of traveling happening. So I think most folks. Not to diminishers. I think most folks haven't left the country. I mean, I never even left the state of Arkansas until I was almost an adult.

[Leah]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And then never the country until I was like, I need to go see something. But that's still a good one. Mexico's cool, but something you could fix.

[Leah]

Yeah, we can go places.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I'm not saying, like, you could.

[Amy]

Just go get the passport to be prepared.

[Bobby Bones]

You should go get a passport.

[Leah]

But that takes a long time.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it does, but that takes like 10 minutes.

[Amy]

No, no.

[Bobby Bones]

Get it.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Who cares? Go do it, and then you'll not even think about it. And you'll get it in, like three weeks.

[Leah]

I do want to pass or weeks, something.

[Bobby Bones]

Never have you ever lunchbox had a cup of coffee.

[Lunchbox]

Never tasted it. Never tried it. Never been tempted to. I just never understood why people drink it. A burning hot cup of coffee when it's 100 degrees outside. I don't understand.

[Bobby Bones]

I never had coffee till like five years ago. And I hate it. I hate the taste of it. To me, it wasn't. I don't like hot things in general. Drinking them not hot.

[Amy]

Drink it ice, not hot.

[Bobby Bones]

I already hate the taste. And then also I'm like, I don't like drinking hot stuff. I don't like drinking hot chocolate or.

[Leah]

Hot apple cider, hot tea, nothing.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't like drinking hot stuff because you can't just drink it freely. You got to be like, you gotta be precious with it. Burn your mouth. Yeah, but. Yeah, that's a big one. Never have I ever had coffee, Morgan.

[Amy]

Never have I ever gotten a tattoo. I'm tattooless.

[Bobby Bones]

And you don't plan on getting no tattoo.

[Lunchbox]

No tattoo.

[Amy]

Yeah. But you know what I forget about Morgan, and it kind of falls in that tattoo range is Morgan has her belly button pierced. I do have my belly button here still. And Sometimes I age out of that.

[Bobby Bones]

Or you just have to take it out.

[Leah]

It's a good question.

[Bobby Bones]

And what's the age out on that? You don't have to, by the way. I think you can do whatever you want. Yeah, you can get it pierced at 90, but according to you guys, is there an age where the person should take their belly button piercing age out?

[Lunchbox]

Well, definitely when they get pregnant.

[Amy]

Yeah. I think you have to.

[Lunchbox]

That's gross.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, but not medical for you.

[Lunchbox]

Not medical, just gross. Like I don't want to see it protruding and it like.

[Bobby Bones]

Shoot. Do you want to see the. Do you want to see the belly though? Just not. No, no, no.

[Lunchbox]

I would cover that.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Okay. Okay. Eddie, your thoughts?

[Leah]

Yeah. When you can't really wear a bathing.

[Bobby Bones]

Suit anymore, you can always wear a bath. Nah.

[Leah]

But when you go from bikini to full body, you know what I mean?

[Amy]

You mean a one piece?

[Leah]

That's it?

[Amy]

Yeah. But then nobody else has seen it.

[Bobby Bones]

Anyway, so why does it matter?

[Leah]

Because that's why you had it.

[Bobby Bones]

Right.

[Leah]

So people can see in the bikini like.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, you. So people will look at that spot. Correct. That's why you put any jewelry on anything. I bought it when I was 16.

[Amy]

Just because I thought everybody else had it.

[Bobby Bones]

That's why I wear ankle. Ankle bracelet. It's time for the good news with Amy.

[Lunchbox]

Tell me something good.

[Amy]

This is genius. At Fairmont Dallas, a hotel, they decided to adopt a shelter dog. And they have named the dog Chief Happiness Officer.

[Bobby Bones]

Ain't got a title, didn't even have to work his way up.

[Amy]

It's an eight month old dog named Bondi. And I mean employees at the hotel are loving it. Like their morale is up. But hotel guests are like, it's just really cool to walk into the lobby and you see this cute dog every single day and. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And they adopted a shelter dog, you know. Yeah.

[Amy]

Cho.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that's the title of the hotel.

[Amy]

Happiness.

[Bobby Bones]

Who would be the Cho on this show?

[Leah]

Me probably. Yeah, sure.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I think somebody would have said that anyway, but he kind of maybe lost the title. I think somebody would have said that. But you disappointed yourself.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Leah]

Can anyone say they're happy right now?

[Amy]

I tell jokes. I'm happy right now.

[Bobby Bones]

Who would be the chief Hate Officer?

[Lunchbox]

Eddie.

[Bobby Bones]

He's a hater.

[Leah]

Good.

[Lunchbox]

He's a hater of everything I do.

[Bobby Bones]

Or the cao. The Chief angry.

[Leah]

Oh, I thought was something else. No.

[Amy]

Yeah. That's a good shout out to Fairmont Dallas for giving Bondi a forever home.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Haha. And he also Wears one of those little suits like a bellhop.

[Leah]

That's awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

It's just funny. All right. There you go. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good, Bones. Wake up. Wake up in the morning. Then you turn the radio on, and the dial just keeps on turning. This week's next bit. And Bobby's on the mic. So you know what this is? This is the Bobby bone. The bride threw the bouquet, and two women reached up to grab it. Then they started fighting for it. Hey, everybody. It doesn't actually mean you're next if you catch the bouquet.

[Leah]

Well, that's what they say, though.

[Bobby Bones]

No, but it's not. It's superstition. It's not real. And I'm sure it was bigger than that. I'm sure it was. One woman felt disrespected. Maybe they had some. But they're going. They're going hard. They're punching each other in the face over this thing. So you see the woman throw the bouquet, and then you see, like, petals start to fly in the air because there's a group of people around it. Then you see hair. Just hair. Then you can then make out it's two women fighting for the bouquet. They're tumbling. But this also runs the whole wedding and reception, too, because that's the story of the night. It's not the bride and the groom getting married anymore.

[Amy]

And their chance of getting married, because someone's gonna be like, what?

[Bobby Bones]

They're in sparkly dresses, one's in a blue sparkly, one's in a black sparkly. And they are going. I mean, this is a hardcore fight.

[Lunchbox]

Or they're passionate about being married. I mean. Exactly one of the two.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a good thing. That's what I'm saying. This is not real. It's not a real thing. It's superstition. I know a lot of people caught the bouquet, didn't work out for them.

[Lunchbox]

I've seen people die for it. So, I mean, it's a serious operation with those women.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't mind if you die for it, but if somebody else is there first, it's theirs. I think who touches it first has the right to it. Quote, if I were a guy at that wedding, I would have quietly disappeared. Yeah, yeah. They. And then you see the other women, like, cover their mouth going, oh, my God, what's happening? They're rolling over the top of each other. It's. It is bizarre. It is bizarre. All right, let's go to Amy with the morning corny.

[Lunchbox]

The morning corny.

[Amy]

What do you call a belt full of watches?

[Bobby Bones]

What do you call a belt full of watches?

[Amy]

A waste of time.

[Bobby Bones]

A waste of time. That's pretty good. That was the morning corny. Yeah. This whole list of cities that people would move to in the whole world. If you could remelty.com, which is a money transfer service, they did this. This poll, and they did, like, 30, 000 people from all over the world. Dubai tops the list of people of cities where people want to move.

[Amy]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

It was far away. The most popular answer from all the 60 countries. Not me, but, like, everybody wants to go to Dubai.

[Leah]

Well, what's so special?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't want to go visit Dubai. I don't know. Flights too long. Don't care.

[Leah]

I know they have cool buildings. I've seen that.

[Amy]

But I think you can, like, ski indoors there.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know.

[Leah]

Really probably do that here.

[Lunchbox]

Probably.

[Amy]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Try hard enough, you can do anything. So I say second on the list is Miami because the weather.

[Leah]

That's nice.

[Bobby Bones]

Paris. Third.

[Amy]

Ooh. I've never been there, but I'd move there.

[Leah]

It's romantic.

[Amy]

Have you. Have y' all seen Emily in Paris?

[Bobby Bones]

I. I'd never been into until two months ago. It's awesome. Yeah. Emily in Paris or Emily and Paris.

[Amy]

Yes. I. I want to be her.

[Bobby Bones]

Is.

[Leah]

Are there accordion sounds, like, everywhere you walk?

[Bobby Bones]

No, but every. I shouldn't say everybody. Most people are dressed up.

[Leah]

Oh, in suits.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that's not suits. But dressed up as in, like, that style matters.

[Amy]

Like, athleisure is not a look occasionally.

[Bobby Bones]

But if so, you wear athleisure with buttons on it. New York City and then Madrid are the top five. If you can move anywhere in the world, it's somewhere you haven't lived yet.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Where would you move? Any city in the world. And you have right now. They say you have 30 seconds to tell me. We're gonna move you right now. Amy, where do you go?

[Amy]

Paris.

[Bobby Bones]

But you never. You've never been, though.

[Amy]

I've never.

[Bobby Bones]

That's okay.

[Amy]

That is okay. I have seen Emily and Paris.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go.

[Amy]

I'm telling you. I already know. It would be such a cool experience.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie.

[Leah]

Hawaii. Honolulu. I mean, just Honolulu right now. And then I'll figure out when I get there.

[Bobby Bones]

You figure out other cities.

[Leah]

Yeah, but I want to go to Hawaii because I want to be by the water.

[Bobby Bones]

Morgan.

[Amy]

Colorado.

[Matt]

I love the mountains.

[Bobby Bones]

Care. What city?

[Amy]

Denver would be awesome because it's centrally located. I feel like But I could be.

[Bobby Bones]

Up in the mountains, just in a cabin lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

San Diego.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a good one.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Got them.

[Bobby Bones]

[Bobby Bones]

I got them all. I got everything. Then I probably go. I mean, honestly, I'd go. Fayetteville, Arkansas.

[Leah]

Interesting, huh?

[Bobby Bones]

It's cool.

[Leah]

It's cool.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Yeah. But you need a big airport if you're gonna go somewhere, right?

[Amy]

But that's. That's.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't go to Xna. Fly out of it all the time.

[Leah]

And you've never lived there.

[Bobby Bones]

Never lived there. And I would be at Razorbank. Everything's all the time.

[Amy]

Okay, I get that.

[Bobby Bones]

I'd be at football games, basketball games, baseball games, games, volleyball, tiddlywink tournaments. It doesn't matter. I would be there.

[Leah]

Chess tournaments.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. Okay.

[Amy]

Wow, that makes sense.

[Bobby Bones]

But if I had to move. I love Austin, but I've already lived there.

[Amy]

Right?

[Bobby Bones]

Nashville. I already live there. Mountain Pine. Easy number one. I'm surprised it didn't beat Dubai. But it would be Fayetteville, Arkansas. Huh?

[Leah]

But you've been to Paris and like, Rome and all that. Nothing.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it'll be up Fayetteville, Arkansas. It would be awesome. We will see you tomorrow. Bye. Bye. The Bobby Bones Show. Bobby Bones.

Licensed therapists you can connect with via video phone or chat. Here's BetterHelp, Head of Clinical Operations, HESU Jo, discussing who can benefit from therapy.

[Amy]

I think a lot of people think that you're supposed to be going to therapy once you're, like having panic attacks every day. But before you get to that point, I think once you start even noticing.

[Matt]

That you feel a little bit off.

[Amy]

And you can't maintain this harmony that you once had in relationships, that could.

[Matt]

Be a sign that maybe you want to go talk to somebody. There's always a benefit in talking to someone because we can all benefit from improved insight about ourselves and who we.

[Amy]

Are and how we behave with other people.

[Matt]

So if you're human, that's like a.

[Amy]

Good indicator that you could benefit from talking to somebody. Find out if therapy is right for you.
