The discussion transitions to a 2018 incident where a 28-year-old man with no pilot experience stole a plane from Seattle Tacoma Airport.

The conversation shifts to the topic of increasing school breaks such as winter and fall breaks. Eddie expresses confusion over the proliferation of these breaks, questioning their necessity. “Why are you taking so many breaks?” he asks (17:14).

Transcript

[Bobby Bones]

A lot of my friends, they can't even get their day going without stopping by Starbucks. But the great thing now at Starbucks is, is that if you go and you decide you want to hang out in Starbucks for a little bit, they're now doing ceramics, like glassware. So if you're gonna go, you're gonna meet a friend and you order a drink and you say, I want it here. You're gonna get it in a mug or a glass. So you go to Starbucks anyway. Next time, stay a while at your next Starbucks visit. Here we go. Come on, Bobby Transmitt. This is the Bobby Bone Show. Let's go. Hey, welcome to Thursday's show. Morning Studio.

[Lunchbox]

Morning.

[Bobby Bones]

I do want to start with a voicemail from Blake, who left this. Go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I was just going to get an update on two things from quite a while ago. I was wondering, since Lunchbox wasn't able to get Amy's sister and her HGTV television show to fix the hole in his roof for free, does he still.

[Bobby Bones]

Have a hole in his roof?

[Lunchbox]

And the other one is whatever happened with Lunchbox's lur.

[Bobby Bones]

Herpes. With his leg Herpes.

[Lunchbox]

Whatever happened with that?

[Bobby Bones]

All right, let's go both. Do you still have a hole in your roof?

[Lunchbox]

No. I finally had to get it fixed once Amy's sister. What do you call it?

[Bobby Bones]

Rejected.

[Lunchbox]

Backed out.

[Bobby Bones]

Rejected.

[Lunchbox]

We had a verbal agreement that I was going to be on the show, I was going to be the A segment, and they were not trustworthy and they went somewhere else.

[Bobby Bones]

Rejected.

[Lunchbox]

So I had to finally pay for it.

[Bobby Bones]

You pay for it? Like, to do it, right?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Like, I paid a roofing company to come and do it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. So I had to pay for it out of my own pocket.

[Bobby Bones]

And what about your herpes?

[Lunchbox]

No, that finally went away. It took about five months, but it finally went away.

[Bobby Bones]

It was just a big five months.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

It never really goes away, though, right.

[Bobby Bones]

If it's a virus, But I don't think leg herpes are a real thing.

[Eddie]

The Lurpies.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Hey, Amy, what's up with your sister's show?

[Eddie]

Oh, it went through season two and didn't get back for another one. I know. He celebrated that before I knew it. Why are you acting like you didn't? You already knew this.

[Lunchbox]

What happens when you don't have stars on your show? It goes down the tube.

[Bobby Bones]

So you're celebrating someone else?

[Lunchbox]

I tried to help them. I gave them a golden platform, and.

[Bobby Bones]

They said, what golden platform were you going to give them? What platform? That's not a platform. You're not a platform.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, me, everybody, we watch it. To see what I got done to my house that would skyrocketed the ratings. Instead, they went with some random person in Nashville.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy was on the show. So you're saying she was B segment.

[Eddie]

I was b.

[Lunchbox]

So she was just a little tiny bit of the show. Me, I would have been the whole show.

[Bobby Bones]

But don't you think that producers, executives, they weighed all of that and thought, this is not worth it to do it with this guy?

[Lunchbox]

They obviously didn't weigh it the right way. They obviously made.

[Bobby Bones]

So you could have saved the whole show.

[Lunchbox]

Exactly. They made bad decisions. That's what happens. That's why a show gets canceled. Tried to tell you guys not to watch it. And you guys listen to. Thank you.

[Eddie]

One episode out of many episodes from the season. And they went with Camille and her husband, who were doing actual renovations.

[Lunchbox]

Camille? Yeah, Camille.

[Bobby Bones]

Everybody knows Camille.

[Eddie]

Was it like, hey, can you fix my roof?

[Bobby Bones]

Like, you think you're famous enough to make a whole show?

[Lunchbox]

I'm more famous than Camille.

[Bobby Bones]

That's not the point. The point is you think you're famous enough to have saved a whole episode of a show.

[Lunchbox]

Yes, and I would have been on my socials promoting the show. Watch this show. This show's amazing. Watch it every week. Instead, I was like, don't watch it. And people listen to me.

[Bobby Bones]

Obviously, you think your socials would have saved the show.

[Lunchbox]

So. So they're back to their normal lives. They were TV stars.

[Eddie]

You've worked in. You work in tv. Like, tell him. This is not how it works.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, it's how it works. I told him, kick rocks.

[Bobby Bones]

It doesn't matter what we tell them.

[Eddie]

Okay?

[Bobby Bones]

They obviously didn't think he was worth.

[Lunchbox]

They obviously didn't think her sister and her husband was worth it either.

[Bobby Bones]

They got two seasons of a show. How many shows you've been on?

[Lunchbox]

I've been on Friday Night Lights. I got a lot of seasons.

[Bobby Bones]

You were an extra. Didn't. Did yet. You haven't had a show. You've been.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I haven't had a show yet.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Real World never made that.

[Bobby Bones]

No. Now we're not doing shows you never made?

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

We can't count shows you never made. Okay. So appreciate that. Blake. Thank you for calling us. Glad everybody's here. Amy, Feel good? Your hair different.

[Eddie]

Well, I'm just not wearing that.

[Bobby Bones]

Something. No, it's a different color.

[Eddie]

No, but it hasn't. I think it's been a different Color. But I washed it for the first time. I think that, you know, sometimes after you get color, they put a toner on.

[Bobby Bones]

Is this like you got a new shirt and don't want to admit it? Because I'll do that. I'll be like, no, the shirt's not.

[Eddie]

New, but I got it done. I've come into work with it this way, but it's been pulled back. And then also I washed it last night, so I think that's the difference. And it took some of the warm toner out. And it. When I got out of the shower, I was like, blow dried it. I was like, oh, my hair is blonder today.

[Bobby Bones]

It looks blonder.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but I didn't get it colored yesterday. I got colored a week ago.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, we weren't here. I wasn't here. I was in Atlanta.

[Amy]

That's a good point.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but you saw me yesterday and the day before.

[Lunchbox]

Did you fake tan? Maybe that's why it looks lighter. That's what it is. The fake tan looks makes it look.

[Eddie]

Like I was feeling a little like, blah. And I was like, you know what will fix this? A little self tanner.

[Lunchbox]

I thought you looked a little snooky.

[Eddie]

Is it too dark?

[Bobby Bones]

No, he's aggressive.

[Eddie]

Is it too dark? It'll fade.

[Bobby Bones]

It's not too dark. Okay, but why are you factoring in his opinion on your tan?

[Eddie]

I always laugh at those videos or memes that people make online where they're like, I thought I was depressed. Turns out I just needed a spray tan.

[Bobby Bones]

Yours wasn't sprayed though. Self tan.

[Eddie]

I should self tan her. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, well, good. Sorry I didn't notice your hair. Hey, sorry I didn't notice it last week. I don't mind, but if it's pulled back, it's hard.

[Eddie]

Exactly. Also, I think I washed out whatever toner she put on.

[Bobby Bones]

And then you do look very tan. I wish I looked very tan.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it's a combo. I can send you what I got.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm good. Oh, I don't need to be tan unless I have to go on camera for something.

[Eddie]

But you don't ever just feel blah. And then when you get a tan, you're like, hello, world.

[Bobby Bones]

No haircut. Sometimes, but not tan.

[Eddie]

Not tan.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't need to be tan unless I gotta be on camera. And then I don't even care about being tan. I just don't look like I'm super washed out. Why don't you know about that with all your shows?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I do. I need to look good on camera.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, let's get the show started here. This flight attendant had to start punching somebody. Dude, that's when you know it's gone down. It's not even other passengers who've had to jump in. The flight attendant's got to start throwing hands. From the New York Post, An Alaska Airlines flight attendant was forced to repeatedly pummel a screaming man. The guy was experiencing a violent medical episode, and the flight attendant had to start punching him to free the woman that the guy that was having the episode was attacking. The disturbing footage uploaded to social media, because obviously I've been recording it too, let's be honest. Shows the male flight attendant desperately trying to save the female passenger. Let go of her hair. Someone can be heard shouting, and the flight attendant just jumps into action. Boom, boom. Punches the guy in the throat and the torso. And then finally they're able to pull him off. One of the witnesses who saw it said the guy was doing some weird stuff and like saying weird stuff, rocking back and forth before it happened. So here's my question to you, Amy. If you just see a guy saying weird stuff, rocking back and forth, do you see something, say something, or do you just think I'm listening to music like, you know, that's classic Bobby up there.

[Eddie]

Can I tell what you're saying or you're just mumbling?

[Bobby Bones]

It just says saying weird stuff and rocking back and forth.

[Eddie]

I mean, I'm probably just gonna be like, okay, so I just gonna look down in a way. I don't know that I'm gonna. If he's mumbling like, I'm gonna blow this place up.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Yeah, okay.

[Eddie]

You know, then that's gonna be a problem. But if he's just like, I should have gone to the grocery store, I'm gonna let him be.

[Bobby Bones]

You think he's just probably glad he's got some me time.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Maybe he's having an episode of some sort, but I don't know that he's going to end up being dangerous.

[Bobby Bones]

Boy, that day you go into work as a flight attendant, you probably don't think you got to start punching somebody. No. I bet if you just get a flight attendant that's worked past 10 years, especially pre covered during COVID post. Covid Now I bet they have just 10 wild stories of how crazy people have been on flights. Because there was. Every day there was a story for a while there's another story. Police appraising a local pilot in Arkansas stopped a 15 year old who entered a regional airport with guns and demanded a plane.

[Eddie]

Plane oh my gosh. 15. I mean it's terrible no matter the age.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah. I guess something weird stands out about the story to all of us. To me it's demanding a plane.

[Amy]

Yeah. What are you gonna do with that?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, you're 15, kid. But yeah, yeah, yeah. The teen walked into signature Aviation. This is in Arkansas with a high powered rifle and handgun and this is Texarkana Airport. And demanded a plane at the front counter.

[Eddie]

I mean maybe he'd been practicing on a simulator.

[Bobby Bones]

After the teen chambered around, a staff member was able to run to the back and alerted police. A local pilot retrieved his firearm from the truck and confronted the teen as he breached security onto the airfield, ordering him to get on the ground. The teen complied and was disarmed. A shotgun was also found in his vehicle. The unnamed teen was not from the area, was arrested. It doesn't say what his intentions were. Did you ever see. That's from cnn, Jefferson. The video of the guy who stole the plane and he's talking with the air traffic controller the whole time and he learned to fly the plane and he's just kind of sad about life and he's like, you know, was having a good day, hasn't been good last few months and I mean they're having a conversation. The air traffic control guy is just like in it too and he's like empathizing with them. He obviously doesn't want the guy to crash it, but it's fly, it's like Washington state. It's so in like over the water. And I don't think there was ever a threat that he was going to crash it into something. But it was 2018. A horizontal air DV Hallen 8400 was stolen from Seattle Tacoma Airport. 28 year old Richard Russell and he had no piloting experience. He was a ground service agent but had been around and he was depressed.

[Eddie]

I feel like I remember us talking.

[Bobby Bones]

About this and finally at the end he was like, ah, find land, whatever. And he just crashed into the ocean on purpose. He won. He did a full like whatever you call that thing where you go. Yeah, yeah. And they were like, yeah. They were like he just barely. You hear him talking like this dude just barrel roll. Like they're amazed at what he's doing in the plane without having no experience. And at the same time you hear it. It's tragic and sad, but it's also quite beautiful and how air traffic control guy is talking to him, not treating him less and listening to him. And then once he understands he has no intentions of hurting anyone. It's an odd piece of audio because you have all those feelings at the same time. And then I'm like. Then the insurance company gets called, and it's like, well, you got to pay for a plane. And that person's like, oh, no. So it's all. All those. But I encourage you to go check it out. It's not even that morbid. It doesn't feel morbid. It doesn't feel.

[Eddie]

We know that he dies.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. But it doesn't feel morbid like you're watching a plane crash again. That's why I said it's a. It's a complicated feeling because you hear him, the guy up there, he goes, I'm just a broken guy with a few screws loose.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And, yeah, no, it's not morbid as in, like, dark. It's like this.

[Eddie]

For me, it feels dark.

[Bobby Bones]

That's why I encourage you to listen to it, because me describing it feels that way. But mostly it's like human behavior and how beautiful it is for somebody to help somebody that's sad and for somebody that's sad and is not able to get help. And it's like the system that we have here in the United States, where our healthcare sucks and mental health is not even paid attention to near as much as it should. Like, it's more about that than it is somebody crashing a plane and dying. And then the guy, Richard Russell, kind of became a hero.

[Amy]

He's the control.

[Bobby Bones]

No, he's the guy that died.

[Eddie]

Oh, a hero.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Like, people, like, were really celebrating because he could have crashed into a house, could have crashed into anything. And he was like, you know what? I'm just gonna go and get out of here. And also he could do barrel rolls.

[Amy]

That's pretty cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Out of nowhere. And people were like, dang. Yeah. I mean, that was really what it was. I mean, he's like, I got a lot of people that care for me, and it's gonna disappoint them to hear for this. I'd like to apologize to each and every one of them. I'm just a broken guys with a few screws loose. I guess. Never really knew it till now, but the way the air traffic controller guys talking to him, it just kind of one of those faith in humanity type things. But, yeah, it's a. It's a complicated thing. We'll put it up on our social media. But I didn't feel. Did you feel like it was super dark? It was oddly comforting in a way, to hear what he was going through to hear them actually talk to him like a human. And also that he, like, told him, like, I'm not trying to hurt anybody. Like, it feels like as soon as he got in there, he instantly regretted it and it all kind of sank in and you got to hear it happen in real time. And he's apologizing and it's sad, but not. Not like you're watching a car crash and you want to see it and you slow down to look at it type thing. But yeah, I guess a 15 year old wanted to fly a plane. That have been terrible. Dang. Can 15 year olds get licenses you.

[Eddie]

Can take as a kid? I don't know what age you have to be to get the license or be able to fly on your own, but I know that some kids take it as part of their schooling.

[Amy]

I would think you should drive first.

[Bobby Bones]

Imagine.

[Eddie]

Yeah, right.

[Bobby Bones]

Imagine I get on an American Airlines flight. Little Doogie Howser pilots up there.

[Amy]

No, no, we're good.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you, sir. Welcome to the flight.

[Amy]

No, is your dad here?

[Bobby Bones]

Bring child to work day? No chance. So, yeah, I saw that big shout out to the guy who disarmed the kid. Didn't hurt the kid, took the gun away. The pilot that was there that was prepared for that situation.

[Eddie]

Okay, so according to faa, you can start taking flying lessons at any age.

[Bobby Bones]

What?

[Amy]

This didn't sound right.

[Eddie]

But you must be at least 16 to fly solo in an airplane and 17 to to obtain a private pilot certificate.

[Bobby Bones]

16 and fly solo. So, yeah, like you can be doing.

[Amy]

Driver'S ed and taking pilot classes.

[Bobby Bones]

First of all, you can do kindergarten graduation and start to learn to fly. You can't go alone, but you can fly right after kindergarten graduation. That's crazy. We need to work on this one. Okay, Bones.

[Lunchbox]

It's the anonymous in box. Anonymous in box. There's a question to be behind.

[Bobby Bones]

Hello, Bobby Bones. My roommate adopted a large dog without asking me, claiming it was a, quote, foster situation that turned permanent. The dog isn't trained, has destroyed several pieces of furniture and barks constantly while we're at work. Our lease specifically states no pets over 20 pounds. This dog is 70. I don't know what to do. I'm upset at my roommate and I feel bad for the dog, but he can't stay and my roommate is being difficult about it. I know I could say something to our landlord, but that could get us both kicked out. What should I do? Signed irked roommate. That's a bad situation you're in here. Depending on the broken lease situation and the penalty with that. If you can move, I would try to move. If he can move and he will, he should move. Because one, he's already breaking the law of the land of no dog over 20 pounds, which is probably going to mean eventually you're going to start to be fined for this dog. It's not your dog. Secondly, if you guys agreed no dogs and they bring in a dog, like, that's not cool. And this roommate relationship is not going to last otherwise. You just gotta last it out till it's time to move and then you just move without him somewhere else.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Because I don't see if this dog is as loud as it is. Eventually people are gonna complain and he's gonna start to get fined or they're gonna have to get rid of the dog. And you don't want that to happen. Your thoughts?

[Eddie]

Yeah, this is a touchy one, but I'm with you. I think you maybe just have to figure out a way to get yourself out of the situation.

[Bobby Bones]

Especially if it's not like a best friend. And if there's not or you have this dude, like sublease your spot, meaning, hey, good luck to you. I gotta go. So you gotta sublease it.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Because this is not going to last as is. So it is time to look for a better situation for you. That's one not going to cost you money or get you in trouble because both may end up happening. That's a bad roommate though. It's a good, maybe decent person. But he lied about.

[Eddie]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Fostering and then keeping. And also the dog's too big and loud. Yeah. So good luck with that. Irked roommate. Not a good situation. But you're gonna have to make a difficult decision. I think you try to move, you could even sublease your part out. All right. Good luck over to Amy all the time.

[Eddie]

I don't think I'll ever get used to whatever winter break is in schools because I certainly didn't have this when I was a kid. I feel like we just got out. Christmas break, spring break is coming up. Used to those things. But we're about to have winter break at my kids schools. And I'm like, I don't get it. Why, why are we taking so many breaks?

[Bobby Bones]

Why are you taking so many breaks? I. I don't know.

[Eddie]

You. You tell me.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't have kids in school. I don't know.

[Eddie]

Hey, I don't know either. It just seems like then there's fall break. I never had fall break. When I was in school.

[Bobby Bones]

Anyone know the reason why now there are so many breaks?

[Eddie]

Who's with me?

[Bobby Bones]

I think.

[Amy]

Oh, I'm with you.

[Bobby Bones]

100. Is it woke? It's. Dude, it's. So is it woke?

[Amy]

And it's tough. It's like, oh, now the kids are going to stay at home. What do we do? Like, but I think it's really for the teachers. They kind of need that break. Okay, I've heard that.

[Bobby Bones]

Why? They didn't need it back then.

[Amy]

Well, maybe things change.

[Eddie]

Okay, well, I can get.

[Lunchbox]

It's all about the start date. Like, depending on where you are. Like, we live in Tennessee. Our start date is way earlier than in Texas. So Texas doesn't have as many breaks.

[Eddie]

Okay, well, that I could. That makes sense to me. So why do we start so early?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. Because you're only supposed to be in school a certain amount of days, so they have to give these breaks. So you hit that goal, but you don't. You're not out way early in the summer.

[Bobby Bones]

Now, is this one of those things where you just say stuff?

[Eddie]

No, because, like, my.

[Lunchbox]

My sister's kids, they don't have fall break. They don't have a winter break. They don't have. Because they start, like, two and a half weeks later.

[Bobby Bones]

Then the root is, why do we start so early in certain places?

[Eddie]

Okay, now it makes sense. I didn't really think about that because. Yeah, in Texas, I guess when we were younger, it was like, late August, maybe even after Labor Day, we would go to school. And now I think my kids go back, like, August 7th.

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

And I don't remember. I just worked all summer and then went to school whenever it was time. I don't remember when we went back to school. Felt like it was like late September or something. Right?

[Amy]

Or like early September.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

Because June, July was summer.

[Bobby Bones]

I know. I never missed August. I never missed a day for years. I was like, perfect.

[Amy]

Even on your breaks, you're like, I'm still.

[Bobby Bones]

That's legit right there. That's how you let them know you mean business. You show up on those break days. I think it's a good question, though. And I think it's probably state to state. There are a lot of breaks here where we are.

[Amy]

So many breaks.

[Bobby Bones]

But Amy got mad at me. He's like, you tell me. I don't know.

[Lunchbox]

I don't get you.

[Bobby Bones]

But Lunchbox, if that's true, he taught us something. That's good. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. And it also says it's to recharge your students.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, we don't need to start recharging.

[Eddie]

No, no, no. We don't need to read.

[Amy]

No, they don't recharge.

[Bobby Bones]

Parents gotta go to work, and then they gotta figure out what to do.

[Eddie]

With the kids if they're young, like, I gotta. Their brains, you know, like, when you're in the groove, you gotta keep it in the groove. Yeah, like if we keep taking my kids in and out.

[Bobby Bones]

Keep him in the groove, she says. Yes, yes, yes. Keep him busy, she says. All right, there you go. Hit it. A lot of my friends, they can't even get their day going without stopping by Starbucks for me. Love Starbucks. Love to get a chai tea. And if I'm ready, if I really need a big day, I'll get that double shot of espresso ready to go. But the great thing now at Starbucks is, is that if you go and you decide you want to hang out in Starbucks for a little bit, they're now doing ceramics, like glassware. So if you're going to go, you're going to meet a friend and you order a drink and you say, I want it here. You're going to get it in a mug or a glass. There's also a condiment bar. It's back. Now you can add the finishing touches to your drink so you don't have to go, well, I need a little more of this. I need a little less of this. You can do the perfect amount of cream and sugar. You now have even more reasons to stay a while at Starbucks. So you go to Starbucks anyway. Next time, stay a while at your next Starbucks visit. It's time for the good news with Bobby. Post Malone left another big tip, this time for $2,000 at a bar in New Orleans on Saturday. It didn't go through at first because Square thought it was fraud. You know, Square, the app? And so they eventually approved it for the bartender. Here's the bartender talking about serving Post Malone. Post Malone walked through the door, went straight to the bathroom, as most people do in New Orleans, straight to the bathroom, came back and sat down. And I kind of really recognized who it was. And he ordered a couple Bud Lights.

[Eddie]

So the tab was 25.

[Bobby Bones]

And then as he was leaving, he.

[Eddie]

Signed his credit card receipt and tipped me $2,000.

[Bobby Bones]

Cried a little bit, went outside, hugged him, thanked him.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it was. It was. He was super kind.

[Bobby Bones]

That's so legit, right?

[Eddie]

That's like an extended Bud Light commercial. It is, because he was doing it.

[Bobby Bones]

So first wanted to shout out, post Malone, awesome gesture. And then Lunchbox has tried. He just wants to be on the news so bad, even for tipping, where he's gone into like a Subway sandwich, but, like sandwiches for everybody. But there were two people there. That's going to be tough to make the news. Or he'll call the news and tip them off about a mystery guy who's doing good deeds. But it's him. So I was thinking about this, and I wouldn't expect you just to go and take $2,000 of just regular money tip. Right?

[Lunchbox]

That'd be impossible.

[Bobby Bones]

Right. How much do you spend on the lottery? Oh, every two weeks. Every two weeks. How much you spend a lottery?

[Lunchbox]

Like 150 bucks.

[Bobby Bones]

So 300 bucks a month. Okay, so eight or nine months of saving that up, you haven't lost. You're not in the hole at all. You've lost nothing. You're not winning anything. Playing the lottery and do this. Is it worth eight of nine? Eight or nine months of not playing the lottery to make the news?

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, well, there you have it. Never mind.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, are you kidding me? The odds of me not winning the lottery if I don't play are 0%.

[Bobby Bones]

The odds of you winning the lottery by playing, or at least the odds that or the amount you've won is zero percent.

[Lunchbox]

Well, no, no, no, because I win 20, 30, $50 here, they're definitely in the hole. But if I don't play.

[Bobby Bones]

So that's what strikes you more than doing this bit? I just wanted to know how you felt about. So you not playing strikes you more than you making the news.

[Lunchbox]

Right? Because nine months of me sitting there going, man, I bet you those would have been my numbers, man, that would have been my numbers.

[Bobby Bones]

That was my thought on how he could do it and help somebody at the same time, but doesn't want to do it. He doesn't want to do it.

[Lunchbox]

So I do want to do it, but I can't. I can't give up.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's priorities.

[Eddie]

What, you want more?

[Lunchbox]

Lottery is more important because I will be on the news when I win the lottery. Hello?

[Amy]

Double whammy.

[Bobby Bones]

You won't be on the news if you win $100,000. That's a whole lot of money.

[Lunchbox]

But I'll be on the news. I'll be out there dancing in front of the news station. I got a hundred thousand dollars. I got a hundred thousand dollars. Don't put the camera on me.

[Eddie]

We'll make the news for being crazy, not winning the lottery.

[Bobby Bones]

Shout Out Post Malone. Awesome story. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good. $5 on the table to the winner. Yes. We're gonna play the Bobby Feud. We're looking for the best cereal mascots. Oh, top 10 cereal mascots. Ranker has a list of the top 10. The thousands of people have voted on top 10 cereal mascots. What we're gonna need is the mascot, and even if you can't exactly name it, you got to get close, so you can't say the cereal. You need the mascot. Everybody good?

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

$5 on the line. We played the Bobby Feud, which is just ripped off from the Family Feud. Obviously, it's exactly the same. We just can't call it that. We don't want to get sued. We had a listener call, and it was like. It's my favorite game.

[Lunchbox]

The one that I always like is the Feud.

[Bobby Bones]

I think the Feud is the most.

[Lunchbox]

Entertaining, and it's the most fun to, like, play along with.

[Bobby Bones]

So we appreciate those calls. Thank you. Kyler, Lunchbox, you're up first. Ten cereal mascots are on the board.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. You ready?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You. Oh, wait, hold on, hold on. Man, oh, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Are they on that?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know who's on that?

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, you know, you understand the conference you're having, we have no idea what you're saying. Like, I know you're thinking it, but we don't. We can't really see the pictures.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I was trying to think if this person is on.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Oh, you don't say anything. I'm just letting you know. We don't know what you're saying. We need an answer, though. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

I'm gonna go. Coco goes cuckoo for Coco Puffs.

[Bobby Bones]

I need to know. What? What's Coco.

[Lunchbox]

He's the guy. He's the. He's the guy.

[Bobby Bones]

What's. I need to know what he looks like or something. Because his name is. The pictures.

[Lunchbox]

Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

[Bobby Bones]

What's he look like? I need a name or a description.

[Amy]

Oh, my gosh.

[Lunchbox]

That's his.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not even saying he's on there. And if it was his name and he was on there, I'd give it to you. But I'm not. Also not saying he's on there, but I gotta have something more than just the same.

[Lunchbox]

That's what his name is. I thought his name is.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Cuckoo goes Coco. Coco goes cuckoo for Coco. His name's Coco. Goes cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

[Bobby Bones]

Show me Coco, Eddie, man.

[Amy]

Should I try to chase what he was trying.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not even saying he was right.

[Amy]

I know, I know.

[Bobby Bones]

Because you know I'll screw with you.

[Amy]

Yes, I'm aware of that.

[Lunchbox]

But you know what I'm talking about.

[Amy]

You know what? I'm getting away from that all together.

[Bobby Bones]

You know what's funny? I don't know what you're talking about.

[Amy]

Oh, you don't?

[Bobby Bones]

I can't see in my head the Cocoa Puffs person. Regardless.

[Amy]

Give me the silly rabbit tricks.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my gosh.

[Bobby Bones]

Good one.

[Lunchbox]

Stupid.

[Bobby Bones]

Show me Silly Rabbit. Yes.

[Amy]

How many points?

[Bobby Bones]

Four answers on the board. I feel like he's trying to go back in on Cocoa Puffs, so I don't hate him for it.

[Amy]

Just keep going, Lunch. Keep going on that.

[Lunchbox]

No, I'M off Cocoa Puffs. I gotta think of the name of the cereal, though.

So the burglar guy from Cookie Chris.

[Lunchbox]

Cookie Chris. Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a hard one to say. That is.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Oh, man, you're so close.

[Lunchbox]

I don't know the name.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, that. No, I'm sorry.

[Lunchbox]

I have another one in my head. But I don't know the name of the cereal.

[Bobby Bones]

Any chance you think of the Hamburglar?

[Lunchbox]

Maybe?

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Eddie. I don't know the difference in Cookie. Crispy guy. Hamburglar.

[Amy]

By the way, they kind of look the same.

[Bobby Bones]

They look the same. Yeah. They're starting to blur. And the crispy boys, like. I don't know, Eddie.

[Amy]

I'm just gonna do it. I'm gonna do it. Give me the Cocoa Puffs bird.

[Lunchbox]

He's a bird.

[Amy]

I think he's a cocoa bird.

[Bobby Bones]

Show me the Cocoa Puffs bird. Sunny. The Cocoa Puffs bird is the Cocoa Puff.

[Amy]

He's a bird.

[Bobby Bones]

His name is Sonny. Peter said bird. Would you give it to you? I did not know what he looked like until I just pulled up a picture.

[Amy]

That is.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a big beaked bird.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. That's worth 18 points.

A little honeybee.

[Lunchbox]

Dang it.

[Amy]

What's a honeybee, bro?

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Is the Captain. No, no, not Captain Crunch. Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I believe he is a chef. The Cinnamon Toast Crunch Chef.

[Bobby Bones]

Show me a chef from Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Chef Wendle. Wendle from Cinnamon Toast crunch. That's 10 points.

[Lunchbox]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow, wow. Doubled up there. You can't lose now. There's only one left on the board, though. The Sunny and Chef Wendle. I never got.

[Amy]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Never got them. Eddie. One more. Can you name it?

[Amy]

I can really only think of one more. It's Frankenberry from Frankenberries.

[Bobby Bones]

So, like the The Frankenstein looking guy.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Frankenberry. You want a shot, you get on the board.

[Eddie]

Yeah. The athletes on the Wheaties box.

[Bobby Bones]

That's funny. Show me any athlete ever. Okay, now, lunchbox. 21 points there. If you can get the number seven answer, it'll be respectable. A respectable loss. It'll be like the Chiefs when they scored against the reserves at Super Bowl. You're like, wow, how they score. 22 points.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah, I got it.

[Bobby Bones]

What do you have?

[Lunchbox]

It's the Golden Bear on Golden Crisps or whatever they're called. But he's a bear. He's brown.

[Bobby Bones]

What's the name of the cereal? Because you have to get one of them. Right.

[Lunchbox]

I know. What is it called?

[Bobby Bones]

Golden Grams.

[Lunchbox]

No, is that.

[Bobby Bones]

Is that a cereal or a.

[Amy]

You're thinking of Teddy Grahams.

[Lunchbox]

No, guys, it is called Golden Crisps.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay? Show me. Show me the bear on Golden Crisp. There is the Sugar bear on Golden Crisp. That's not one of the top 10, but that is one of them. Eddie, over to you. Last one. You want to take a shot?

[Amy]

I'll just guess. Maybe there's a B on honeycomb. Is there another honeycomb?

[Bobby Bones]

Honeycomb. Ray, Amy.

[Eddie]

Yeah? I have nothing.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, nothing. Show me nothing. The number seven answer.

[Amy]

Who is that?

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, Natty, I'll come to you you once you get to Victory Lab. Who is the mascot, the serial mascot for Fruity Pebbles?

[Amy]

Oh, that's Fred Flintstone.

[Bobby Bones]

That's the one I was talking out.

[Lunchbox]

Fred? Is he? But I was like, he ain't on there, is he?

[Bobby Bones]

You didn't talk there. You didn't talk that out.

[Lunchbox]

You said I didn't understand what you were saying.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, he. He talks out loud. He doesn't think we can hear him. Then he talks inside his head and thinks we can hear him.

[Lunchbox]

I had it.

[Amy]

That's a big miss. We should have all gotten that one.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble. Fred, Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa Pebbles. But yes, Eddie, $5 is yours, buddy. I watched this music teacher on Tick Tock. His name is. It's Mr. Finn. He's probably 38 or 39. And you don't ever see the kids singing. You just see him. And it's a warm up every day. And so. And I. When there's a new one, like I'm in here is. It's Mr. Finn. He's a high school choir teacher with the kids doing a warm up of Jimmy World.

[Lunchbox]

One, two, three.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, so it's their warm up every day. And then at the end Here they're just screaming it out and it's always like a cool song from the 2000s. I didn't mean to cut that one off, but here is Mr. Brightside by the Killers.

[Lunchbox]

Bright side. Beginning bases two. Ready? Nice. Alto, go. Nice. Spino, go to tenor, go. He call me. Open up my ear.

[Bobby Bones]

I love it. It's the warm up for classes every day.

[Amy]

That's so cool.

[Eddie]

That is so fun.

[Bobby Bones]

So. And when he's playing the piano, he's not. So, you know, he's not playing the song. He's just giving them the note.

[Amy]

The key?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, the key to sing on. So he's playing a note so they can know the key. You want one more now?

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

You two still haven't found what I'm looking for.

[Lunchbox]

Ready?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh.

[Lunchbox]

10 or join. Three, four.

[Bobby Bones]

Two.

[Lunchbox]

Sopranos, go. One, two, three. Keep it there. Three, two, three. One more time.

[Bobby Bones]

Love him. Get 1.2 million followers. It's a music teacher, choir teacher.

[Amy]

How fun does that sound?

[Bobby Bones]

And that's the warm up.

[Eddie]

Like, I'd want to go to school.

[Bobby Bones]

Me too. I was like, I want to be in the class. So shout out to. It's Mr. Finn on tick Tock. Don't know where he teaches. Don't know anything about him. He doesn't put his kids on, obviously, because it's like, it's not about the kids, it's about the art and who knows? You got to get people to sign stuff.

[Amy]

Is that two n's or one n?

[Bobby Bones]

Two n's. It's Mr. Finn. So I'm in. I'm enjoying that. That's my. My enjoyment on Tick Tock right now. I mean, what's the show you're watching on Netflix?

[Eddie]

Apple cider vinegar.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a show?

[Eddie]

Yes. And I've ignored it for however long it's been popping up. And like, when I turn on Netflix, it's something I see right away. I'm like, I don't understand what this is. So I never click on it for whatever reason. Yesterday I clicked on it and now I'm hooked. It's a true story. So it. But it's actors, they're acting it out. But it's based on this wellness influencer that lived in Australia. But she got worldwide famous. I mean, she had followers all over the world because she claimed to have brain cancer and that eating naturally and through other health remedies, it cured her. And so she created this app and a cookbook and people that were.

[Bobby Bones]

She never had the cancer, so she faked the Cancer.

[Eddie]

She never had cancer.

[Bobby Bones]

And then just said whatever she had took it away. Right.

[Eddie]

So then people with cancer are foregoing treatment because they're like, I'm gonna go make this recipe and eat this. Or at least the way they portrayed it in the show. There's one woman in particular that they follow that she really wanted to quit. And her husband was like, no, you need to keep getting the chemo.

[Bobby Bones]

And they're not spoiling anything, right? No, you have a tendency to do that without knowing. You, like, walk his places and then.

[Eddie]

Okay, yeah, well, we'll stop.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so. Which means possibly.

[Eddie]

But it's like, what's wrong with people?

[Bobby Bones]

She episodal or movie?

[Eddie]

It's a six episode little miniseries.

[Bobby Bones]

Have you watched it?

[Lunchbox]

Started the first episode. My wife fell asleep, so we couldn't. I couldn't finish it without her, but it is.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you in, though?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I'm in.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, I'm ready to go. Are you entertained?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I was entertained, yeah. Like, I was entertained and I was like, how did you fall asleep? I was just really tired and I didn't finish it because I gotta wait. But I mean, I am ready to. Like, I am jonesing.

[Bobby Bones]

So not a Tuesday reviews day, but here's. We have apple cider vinegar that you're watching.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it's more of like a mind blown. Can't believe people get away with this for so long. Luckily, she got caught and my guy is.

[Bobby Bones]

It's Mr. Finn on TikTok. Okay, class, ready? One, two, go. I'm Mr. Brightside.

[Amy]

And now, now we start our day.

[Eddie]

How did y'all know what we were gonna start singing?

[Bobby Bones]

We didn't.

[Amy]

That was the last one, I think.

[Eddie]

Oh, I was doing a still.

[Lunchbox]

I don't know what I was doing.

[Bobby Bones]

We know, we know. Yeah. A lot of my friends, they can't even get their day going without stopping by Starbucks for me. Love Starbucks. Love to get a chai tea. And if I'm ready, if I really need a big day, I'll get that double shot of espresso ready to go. But the great thing now at Starbucks is, is that if you go and you decide you want to hang out in Starbucks for a little bit, they're now doing ceramics, like glassware. So if you're gonna go, you're gonna meet a friend and you order a drink and you say, I want it here. You're gonna get it in a mug or a glass. There's also a condiment bar. It's back. Now you can add the finishing touches to Your drink so you don't have to go. Well, I need a little more of this. I need a little less of this. You can do the perfect amount of cream and sugar. You now have even more reasons to stay a while at Starbucks. So you go to Starbucks anyway. Next time, stay a while at your next Starbucks visit Lunchbox. What happened?

[Lunchbox]

Went to a birthday party. And it's a family. We know their kid was turning five years old, so kind of know the grandparents, but the grandparents don't live in town. So Grandpa's at the party, and I walk up and I'm like, oh, good to see you. And he's like, oh, I'm trying to keep my distance. I got the flu. No, no, no, wait. If you have the flu, why did you come to the birthday party? Like, I understand you traveled from out of town, but just stay at the kid, the house, and if you miss the birthday party, no big deal. The birthday party doesn't change because you came like you have the flu. You know you have the flu. Why are you at this party?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm assuming because you are a man that likes to say what he thinks and thinks what he says. You said that to him?

[Lunchbox]

I ran to the other side of the room.

[Bobby Bones]

I got it. That. Yeah, I get that, too. So I wonder if you got the. I agree. If you got the flu, don't be around a bunch of people regardless.

[Eddie]

Okay. Y'all are the same guys that told me the other day when I was all confused why a kid played a basketball game with the flu.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Because you know, you have to be there for your teammates.

[Lunchbox]

Does not have to be there.

[Amy]

Okay, but what if Grandpa's close to dying?

[Lunchbox]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

I want to let Amy make her a point, though, because some people may not understand what she's saying. I'm going to disagree with you, but I would like for you to make the point.

[Eddie]

Okay, let me make the point. What I'm saying is y'all make up your own rules.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Eddie]

Because I was frustrated that a kid showed up to a basketball game to play basketball when he stayed home from school that day, sick, but still played in the game, sweating all over people, touching, guarding, fouling, like getting people sick easily.

[Bobby Bones]

We're familiar terms of basketball. Yeah.

[Eddie]

And y'all are like, oh, yeah, I know. If he's a starter, he has to show up to the game. Who cares if you stayed over from school? You got to show up for your team. And now Grandpa wants to be at his grandkids birthday. Could be the last one he ever.

[Bobby Bones]

Attends okay, you can't be inserting stories because this kid can't be the last basketball game he ever plays.

[Eddie]

Too well.

[Lunchbox]

You.

[Eddie]

You inserted that if the kid didn't show up, they were likely gonna lose.

[Bobby Bones]

I only said if the kid is a starter or a major contributor, he needs to be there to play if he can.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

If he's a bench sitter. You got the flu, stay home.

[Eddie]

Okay?

[Bobby Bones]

You owe it to your teammates. You've worked all year for something. Grandpa don't need to be at that birthday party. Grandpa's sick.

[Lunchbox]

Grandpa.

[Bobby Bones]

By the way, did he get the flu when he got here or did he travel with the flu?

[Lunchbox]

Not sure. Didn't ask. Ran across the room and I. You wonder how many trampolines I saw the grandpa jump on?

[Bobby Bones]

His grandpa rocks. And if he jumps. 0.

[Lunchbox]

0. That's what I'm saying. He was really just standing there to watch the kid cut cake and eat a piece of cake. No need to be there.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, you're.

[Lunchbox]

You're putting everybody in that room at risk.

[Eddie]

So what if he jumped on the trampoline? Could he be there?

[Lunchbox]

No, I'm just saying, like.

[Eddie]

Well, you said there's no also if. As long as he participates, he plays Grandpa.

[Bobby Bones]

Also, don't say you have the flu. I think the problem too is if you're gonna do this and do something you shouldn't do, like have the flu and be in a group, just be like, I got a cold. You don't got to commit to the flu. Be like, I got a cold. Back away. But then old people don't know what they're saying half the time.

[Eddie]

Well, why do you. Why do you think that?

[Lunchbox]

No, they don't. They just let it. Well, they know what they're saying maybe, or. And they just don't care, so they just say it.

[Eddie]

How old are we talking?

[Bobby Bones]

70S, 80s? Yeah, my version of old is 80s.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

When I. I watched Bill Belichick, who's 70, with his 24 year old girlfriend.

[Eddie]

We're with them and isn't he able to say what he's thinking?

[Bobby Bones]

I think he dgaf. I know. That's one. I think about old people too. They just don't care.

[Eddie]

Sure. I mean, yeah, but I think.

[Bobby Bones]

Why would you care? You only got a few days left. Might as well give it a rip, right? Papa? You got the flu, don't go to the kid's birthday party.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I agree. Kid, don't go to the basket.

[Bobby Bones]

Chris, you're a starter. Go to the game if you can. If you have the flu, though, and you're gonna not play. You're gonna hurt the team. You know, stay home. I mean, life's about nuance.

[Eddie]

Oh, I love nuance.

[Bobby Bones]

Everything's not black and white.

[Lunchbox]

Also, your basketball kid was not confirmed flu. That was just maybe feeling a little tickle in his throat. This was confirmed.

[Bobby Bones]

And a light tickle.

[Eddie]

It was like, you're not well enough to go sit at school to, you know, do some math problems, but you can make it to the basketball game in the afternoon.

[Bobby Bones]

Light tickle.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Sometimes I get a light tickle.

[Eddie]

What's interesting, though, is Grandpa's staying at the house. Like, he's contaminated. Everybody's contaminated. Like, the birthday boy's contaminated for sure.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a funny word.

[Eddie]

Well, what else would I say?

[Bobby Bones]

Grandpa's contagious, but contaminated feels like it's Ebola or something. Somebody's in one of those white suits, like, walking around.

[Amy]

They're ruined.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Grandpa's real sick. If he's contaminated. Golly. Yeah. That's weird, dude.

[Lunchbox]

And I felt a little like.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you go home early? Like, did you try. Did you keep your. Try to keep your.

[Lunchbox]

I tried to keep my kids away from them. When we got home, I gave him a bath. I was like, all right, we can't be doing that. And it's probably good to do a bath because we did a trampoline park, and so there's a lot of kids and a lot of germs. But Grandpa made me extra like, all right. Right when we get home, we're doing bath. Even though it's middle of the afternoon.

[Bobby Bones]

We fully expect to all get the flu in the next couple weeks. I was just thinking, but he gets.

[Lunchbox]

Sick, it's not my fault. It'd be the grandpa's fault.

[Bobby Bones]

We hear you, but you'll get sick and come in and then just be like, I'm not sick. I always got a size of mouth. And then we all get tickles, and then we're all out. So. But I disagree with. Does anyone agree Grandpa should have been there? Yes or no? Should Grandpa been there?

[Amy]

It's tough because, like, no.

[Bobby Bones]

Great.

[Amy]

I say yes because, Grandpa, you can't. Grandpa, you cannot. You cannot miss your grandchildren's birthdays. You really don't know when you're gonna leave this earth.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't have to be there with all the other kids, though.

[Amy]

Put a mask on.

[Eddie]

Well, yeah, no, put.

[Bobby Bones]

Like Amy said, he's contaminated. Put the white suit on them. All right, you guys can call Us as well. Leave us your thoughts, opinions, even if you get to voicemail. 877 77. Bobby, it's time for the good news with Amy. Tell me something good.

[Eddie]

85 cancer patients in San Antonio got makeovers and wigs through a partnership between Texas Oncology and a nonprofit called Angels. Sen. Fonteras. That's my best shot at the Spanish.

[Bobby Bones]

Can we.

[Lunchbox]

It's pretty good.

[Eddie]

Angelus.

[Bobby Bones]

How would you say it? I don't even want to go to Eddie because Eddie. Oh.

[Amy]

I'll tell you exactly how to say it.

[Bobby Bones]

Go ahead.

[Amy]

Angels and Fronteras.

[Eddie]

See? No scene.

[Amy]

Oh, Scene.

[Bobby Bones]

Fronteras.

[Eddie]

Angela.

[Bobby Bones]

Seen.

[Eddie]

Fantastic.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't get like 70 of it.

[Amy]

I don't know what that means, though. So it's Angels without what?

[Bobby Bones]

Borders. Very good, Steve. I'm saying Eddie, he's from the Valley, but I don't feel like he likes took in.

[Amy]

There are certain words. I just don't know what they mean.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, well, sorry, we're lost in the story. Go ahead.

[Eddie]

But this is something that's really special for these patients because the confidence that something like a makeover and a wig gives them during treatment, it's total fresh looks. They feel like new people. It's like, hey, someone actually is paying attention to me and cares. And I think having confidence during treatment is great, too. So I just love that this organization exists in 85 patients. Got this.

[Bobby Bones]

That's awesome. And Mike, what's it called?

[Eddie]

Yeah. And Angela Cine Fonteras. They provide about 500 wigs annually to support those undergoing treatments. This is just 85 out of San Antonio.

[Bobby Bones]

Big shout out to those. Those guys and gals.

[Amy]

Who are they?

[Bobby Bones]

Both. They are Angel. I don't even know how. I don't. I can't even see it to read it, much less try Angels.

[Amy]

Scene.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good. And that is the end of the first half of the podc. That is the end of the first half of the podcast. That is the end of the first half of the podcast. That is the end of the first half of the podcast. You can go to podcast two or you can wait till podcast two comes out. A lot of my friends, they can't even get their day going without stopping by Starbucks. But the great thing now at Starbucks is, is that if you go and you decide you want to hang out in Starbucks for a little bit, they're now doing ceramics, like glassware. So if you're going to go, you're going to meet a friend and you order a drink and you say, I want it here. You're going to get it in a mug or a glass. So you go to Starbucks anyway. Next time, stay a while at your next Starbucks visit.
