[Bobby Bones]

Here we go. Come on Bobby.

[Eddie]

Bobby. Border across America Turn it up.

[Bobby Bones]

This is the Bobby Bones Show. Let's welcome to Thursday's show morning studio.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Morning.

[Bobby Bones]

So Karen Reed, she was acquitted. It was the murder case up in Boston, near Boston. Everybody remember that where. Oh yeah, boyfriend was killed.

[Amy]

Police officer.

[Bobby Bones]

Police officer hit by a car.

[Amy]

They were at a. They went to a party of other fellow police officers and so this is.

[Bobby Bones]

The first time that she's spoken publicly since the verdict. This is from CBS News. Here you go.

[Eddie]

I don't have a job. I don't have a home anymore. I'm just kind of in no man's land. Every waking hour, every hour, I thought.

[Bobby Bones]

About my freedom and if I could lose it.

[Amy]

Those feelings just don't disappear.

[Eddie]

When a jury foreman says, not guilty.

[Amy]

I do feel I've had this delayed reaction to the persecution. I can't miss him in a few.

[Eddie]

Weeks and say, just thinking of you.

[Amy]

Or can I drop by and see you? I've never been forced to deal with such finality. I've never had a death that.

[Bobby Bones]

That close to me. She said she's leaving Massachusetts as soon as possible, but she doesn't have any money yet. And why? Because there are laws that say you can't make money off of something if you're guilty. And only in some states they end up finding out that she can make money if she were to go to prison. Massachusetts doesn't have that law. So she could have made money off, like, the documentaries and stuff they were doing, but she didn't make any money from it. But she doesn't have any money. She's trying to adjust and get her life back. Thank God, if she didn't do it, which she didn't. She's not guilty, that she wasn't found guilty. Yeah, but I would think about. I'd be so obsessed with thinking I'm gonna spend the rest of my life in prison when I'm on trial, even if I didn't do it. So, yeah, she's back doing her thing. There's a wrongful death lawsuit still pending, but eventually. Right. They gotta go and try to find somebody else. Are they just giving up on it now?

[Amy]

Yeah, that's what I was missing.

[Bobby Bones]

So weird.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

They were so attached to her being the person that. What, now they're just not investigating anymore?

[Amy]

Yeah. If it's not her, then who is it?

[Bobby Bones]

Somebody. It's somebody. Yep. So, yeah, that was weird. But rooting for Hope, she's able to bounce back. And I'm sure she will. I'm sure she'll be able to make money if she writes a book, if she does movies. But right now she doesn't have much. She's living. What baby names are headed for extinction? So these are the ones that almost aren't even on the list anymore once they go to, like, the public Social Security Bureau. I think I made that bureau up.

[Amy]

Sounds legit.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So here are the names that are declining so fast, I think they're about to fall off. Charlie. C H A R L E I G H. Charlie. This is a girl. I like that name.

[Amy]

I like Charlie as a girl.

[Bobby Bones]

McKinley.

[Amy]

Cute.

[Bobby Bones]

Trisha. Okay, that's just people putting letters together. Yeah, that's just people going, let's just say chat. GPT. Assign us a random name that. Prusha. Sasha.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Phil's foreign.

[Amy]

Kasha. Baron. Cohen.

[Bobby Bones]

Ezra.

[Amy]

I like Ezra. That's cute.

[Bobby Bones]

Those are the ones falling off for boys. These names are. I never heard some of these names. I can't even believe enough people name their kids this. That. It was on the list again. This is America. Killian. K Y L I A N. Oh, nope. ATHARV. A T H A R V. Down 373 spots.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah, that's not surprising.

[Bobby Bones]

AARV.

[Amy]

So there's more than one Atharv.

[Bobby Bones]

Has to be Enoch. Okay, well, there was a Book of Enoch. Still the Book of Enoch.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Or is that.

[Amy]

Oh, is that in the Bible?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it's not in the Bible. In the current Bible, but depending on what you read historically was. At one point they removed it.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Just depends. On. On Enoch was a prophet, which is why it's a whole. That's a whole side thing. Eddie's fasting today, so, you know.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah, man. Tell me more.

[Amy]

Well, no, you tell us. You're fasting, aren't you?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

I'll pray.

[Amy]

Suddenly more spiritual.

[Bobby Bones]

Crew. C R U E. Yeah, I know a couple crews. Crews or crew? Crew Crew. And Huxley.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

I know one.

[Bobby Bones]

Hux, but is it Huxley?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yes, they call him Hux.

[Bobby Bones]

I get that the Huxtable name is down after old Cliff.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I get that. Makes sense.

[Bobby Bones]

Cliff got in trouble. USA Today with that story. But those are the names that are falling off the baby list. You can actually get drunk from eating pizza. Ever heard of this?

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

Why are you so excited?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Because I eat a lot of pizza. Tell me more.

[Amy]

Yeah, I don't think you have this.

[Bobby Bones]

People with auto brewery syndrome have in their gut a bacteria that takes carbs and turns it into what alcohol does to you. And you get drunk off carbs.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

So every time you eat, like, bread or like pizza crust, you're like. You get a little drunk.

[Bobby Bones]

Researchers have finally identified the culprits and biochemical pathways behind this bizarre condition. These findings could revolutionize treatment for patients who have been dismissed as secret drinkers for years. Because they would go in and, like, I think your husband's secretly drinking and it's why he's acting this way. Yeah, but it was in their body. Their. Their. Inside their guts. Like, about like a. Yeah. Gut bacteria would be what it is. It turns that into the effects of what alcohol has on you, which is.

[Amy]

Crazy to know that you haven't had anything, but yet you are impaired in some way.

[Bobby Bones]

Imagine. You get it. Nobody believes you.

[Amy]

Yeah. And you're like, no, all I ate.

[Bobby Bones]

Was bread and then pepperoni pizza, Officer.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Then they stick you into aa, like, because you. They think you have a problem.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, yeah, I would say jail or. Yeah. In rehab.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Because you've been lying. Because that's when people think you're a problem. Like, you've been lying about it.

[Amy]

You're in denial.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

I've just been eating pizza.

[Amy]

But that's when you say, okay, you're gonna stay by my side for 48 hours, and you're gonna see that I'm not drinking anything.

[Bobby Bones]

But I think you'd have to also eat those carbs in that specific time to prove that you're drunk without drinking alcohol. Like, if you just go watch and they could sit with you, like, okay, you're not drinking, but. But you're also not drunk.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You're saying you're getting drunk off of no alcohol. I want to see you get drunk off. No, out. Prove it, wise guy.

[Amy]

So I'm curious. If they were to blow into a breathalyzer, would they blow positive alcohol?

[Bobby Bones]

22 patients showed blood alcohol levels.

[Amy]

Yeah. Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

They would up after eating carbohydrates.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

So I don't know if they would blow it, but blood it for sure. Because, you know, they can also take blood and tell if you're drunk or not. I don't know if it would come out your mouth, but, yeah, study fines with the story, but there are people. But now drunks are going to be.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Like, no.

[Bobby Bones]

I got carbo, gut, bacteria. And one other story, because they're really trying to get us to care about the Winter Olympics. Have you seen the bobsled team for America?

[Amy]

What happened?

[Bobby Bones]

They couldn't even jump in the car.

[Amy]

No way.

[Bobby Bones]

They're all pushing it, running with it.

[Amy]

Well, you have one job to get in that thing.

[Bobby Bones]

And, like, one of them flies. His body flies over the top of the.

[Lunchbox]

And there was only one person left in the thing. And all three are sprawled out. It was so embarrassing.

[Bobby Bones]

It looked like it hurt.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Like, was it a camera that caught him? That wasn't supposed to be like, no.

[Bobby Bones]

It'S just them recording their trials, their practices, because you Want to record it so you can see every little thing that you're doing? How to get better. Just game tape.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

This is not good.

[Bobby Bones]

And they're running. It just looks like a TV shot. And boom. One flies off, another flies off.

[Amy]

Oh, gosh.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you watching it?

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

U.S. bobsled driver Chris Horn survived a terrifying World cup run at St. Moritz after his three teammates failed to load into the four man sled. He raced alone, no added weight, no one to help break. He still reached speeds of 75 miles per hour. This poor guy's in there like. All right, guys, Guys, Guys.

[Amy]

Hey, where you at?

[Eddie]

Oh, no.

[Bobby Bones]

New York Post without you. See it?

[Amy]

What a mishap. Oh, this is tragic.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, no. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm telling you, it looks bad. It hurts. Oh, no. That one guy that went off the right side immediately flew off. Since we're the host nation, we get a free team in every event, regardless we qualify or not.

[Amy]

Is this our free team?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

What do you mean? We're the host.

[Lunchbox]

No, we're not. We're going over that. Maybe.

[Bobby Bones]

Maybe the World Cup.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, World Cup. We got in automatically.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

I was like, they're having this here.

[Bobby Bones]

Summer Olympics I'm talking about.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Since we're the host nation in the Olympics. Because network winner. We're never gonna. We hosted in Colorado once, right? Utah.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

That sounds familiar.

[Bobby Bones]

Utah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I think you're right.

[Bobby Bones]

But in the Olympics, if you host and we're the host nation in two years.

[Lunchbox]

Right?

[Bobby Bones]

Two years for the summer.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

We get to have a team in everything.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, that's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

I was watching a girl on Tick Tock do the trials for handball. She's never once played handball, but she was a college athlete and she said, I'm gonna try for handball. We get a team in everything because we're the host nation. And she's like, almost made the team. And handballs, where you, like, run with.

[Lunchbox]

It, that is a fun sport to watch.

[Bobby Bones]

But we suck because we don't play a lot of these events. But since we get a team and everything, we just take the worst or. Sorry. The best of the sucks.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

I mean, I don't know about you guys, but I'm excited for the Winter Olympics.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, I'll watch it. Like, I. I like it. I mean, I don't even understand why they ski and then they pull out a gun and shoot something. They ski. Oh, that one's cool.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

The cross country hunt.

[Lunchbox]

It makes no sense, but we don't.

[Bobby Bones]

Even know what it's called thing. Yeah. New York Post. It's crazy, huh?

[Amy]

Yeah, it is. That's feel really bad for them.

[Bobby Bones]

I got hit hard with that cell phone outage yesterday.

[Amy]

Yeah, same.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

All day, pretty much.

[Bobby Bones]

And I guess I didn't notice it at first because I had WI Fi, so I wasn't getting any calls. But you can get texts, and so nobody really calls me anyway. But I had a rough moment yesterday. I left the house, I had already ordered Sonic, and then I got there, tried to check in on my mobile app. No service, so I had to push the red button and say, oh, hey, it's Bobby. I got a mobile order. And they were like, what? Why are you calling us? I know. Confusing. Rough day.

[Amy]

I'm sure they had to deal with that. Like, you couldn't have been the only person a little helpless, though.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Dude, I bet you it was hard for you. It was.

[Bobby Bones]

That was a hard one. I was gonna write a book about it.

[Amy]

As long as you're like, how often are you not near WI Fi?

[Bobby Bones]

No, I agree. And I never talk on the phone.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, almost never. So I didn't even notice until I was driving to Sonic and I said, oh, oh, no. And then I got there and said, oh, I still can't check in. So I pushed the red button.

[Amy]

I noticed right when I left work. So, yeah, I was connected to WI Fi. I couldn't tell. And then when I was leaving, tried to make a phone call, wouldn't go through, got my car, kept trying to call over and over, and I say, why, though?

[Bobby Bones]

Like a hack or something? I don't know. Like, no, I just am making that up. But for the whole system to go down for hours over multiple states, That's. That's Russia again. I don't know that I'm just making that. Or China. It's one of the two.

[Amy]

It kind of took me back a little bit. Back in the day when we didn't. I couldn't make a phone call while driving, you know.

[Bobby Bones]

It took you back? Oh, it took me forward to when the world is ending and it's the apocalypse and we're not able to talk.

[Amy]

Sure. There could be that too.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. You went backward. I went forward.

[Amy]

Yeah. I went back and I was kind of like, this is. This is nice.

[Lunchbox]

So what happened? This is the first time I had no idea there was a cell phone outage.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

It was only one provider, right?

[Bobby Bones]

It's Verizon. I have Verizon. Do you have Verizon?

[Amy]

Same.

[Lunchbox]

I have Verizon.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Last lunchbox, your phone was out.

[Bobby Bones]

Your phone Was out all day.

[Lunchbox]

No idea.

[Bobby Bones]

Last night, probably 7:30 or it came back, I was. The Arkansas Razorback basketball game was 8 o' clock last night. We got to stop this.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

It's too late.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a disaster for me because I will stay up and watch it. Luckily, we beat the pants off South Carolina. And so midway through second half, I was able to, like, just halfway check out. But these games are too late. Yeah, I know. The game came. The phone came back right before that. But I had a weird day yesterday. I take my car in this light wouldn't go off on the inside, and there was a broken tail light. But I go to this place, and every time I go in, they find something else wrong with my car. It's almost like an oil change. When you go in and they bring you your filter and it's green and stuff's growing off of it, and they're like, well, you need this and 72 new wiper blades. And you're like, really? Okay. But I go in and they say, you got a nail in both your back tires. And it wouldn't be weird if it was just that every time I go in, they find something else wrong with my car.

[Amy]

Well, so you legit have two nails in your back tires?

[Bobby Bones]

No, they replace the tires. How to get to two new tires, That's a problem.

[Amy]

No, I know, but I mean, you.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know.

[Amy]

You were like, show me.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

No, no, you didn't look it up. You were saying, show me.

[Lunchbox]

Yes, I would have said if they.

[Bobby Bones]

Did that they put the nails in them. If they're saying that, they're committing to that.

[Lunchbox]

That's true.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I dropped it off. Dropped my car off, Ubered home, and got home, and they called and said, hey, we got two nails, one in each back tire.

[Amy]

Your tire pressure was good, though.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it was great.

[Amy]

See, I have a warning for tire pressure right now.

[Bobby Bones]

And it's not just that. It's every time I take the car in, something is wrong with it. Something extra. So I don't know.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

I bet there's a note there that says, like, oh, this is the guy that doesn't check when we tell him something's wrong.

[Amy]

Right? They're like, just say there's nails.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

He falls for it every time.

[Amy]

He doesn't even look.

[Bobby Bones]

Has anybody ever worked at a car place?

[Commercial Announcer]

I don't.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

They're not gonna admit it, dude. I know they won't admit it.

[Bobby Bones]

If we had a voice changer, I'd put them on and be like, yeah, we Used to do that. We used to put nails in tire. Because once.

[Amy]

Oh, that seems extreme.

[Lunchbox]

I wouldn't.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't think people don't do that? Why shouldn't shady people?

[Lunchbox]

Because you're not in there watching to.

[Amy]

Go for two tires.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I agree, but it's so bold. You don't question it because you go, well, that's bold for two tires.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

But yeah, that's what happened yesterday. And then I ended up getting the car back. They. They drove it back over to my house at like 7. It's night. It gets night at 4 o' clock now. They drove it over at like 7:15 last night, dropped it off. But I have two new tires. Except had to pay for two new tires.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah, that's not good.

[Bobby Bones]

No. And that sucks. Yeah. Our phone number is 877-77-BOBBY. You guys can call us if you want. 87777 b o b b y. I want to play a voicemail here. Play me number six, please. Raymondo.

[Eddie]

Eddie doing the fast.

[Bobby Bones]

First of all, I think it's awesome.

[Eddie]

Second of all, I heard the lady.

[Bobby Bones]

Call in saying that.

[Eddie]

Not supposed to brag about it.

[Amy]

I mean, yeah, it does kind of.

[Bobby Bones]

Talk about that in the Bible, but.

[Eddie]

I don't think that Eddie did it in that sort of way at all. If Eddie's heart is in the right place, he didn't do anything wrong. Do your fast and let God bless you.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what I think.

[Lunchbox]

Bye.

[Bobby Bones]

This is the first morning of your fast.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Feeling good. Checking in.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Feeling good, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Hungry?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

No, not yet. Dude. I ate a lot last night though. Like, I ate a lot because I knew I wasn't gonna be eating for the next four days. So I'm like, load it up, baby.

[Bobby Bones]

What'd you eat?

[Amy]

Kind of the next 20 days, but.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Well, I mean, the water fast or whatever the liquid fast is. 4 days I ate my. Well, for dinner that we had King Ranch casserole, which is one of my favorites.

[Bobby Bones]

That sounds good.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

So good. Loaded up on that. Ate a lot of Fritos with that because it goes with Fritos, the big.

[Bobby Bones]

Scoop ones you guys want to do. What'd you have for dinner again?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah, I love it.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you give us some dinner music? Okay, Eddie, keep going.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Okay. And then I had ice cream for dessert. I also had chips and salsa before dinner.

[Bobby Bones]

Chips.

[Lunchbox]

What?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Chips and salsa.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, There you go.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

And then I think, no, I ended with the ice cream, dude. I ate like half a tub of ice cream. And then we're good. Let's Go fast, baby.

[Bobby Bones]

All right. What'd you have for dinner, Amy?

[Amy]

Chick fil A. So my son got the sandwich number one, I guess, with pickles. And I got nuggets with Mac and cheese, and I cut the nuggets up, and I stir them into the Mac and cheese, and it's so good.

[Bobby Bones]

Lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

I had mozzarella sticks for the appetizer, and then I had some kind of salad that my wife ordered. I ate half of that, and I had a spicy Hawaiian pizza. So it's Hawaiian pizza with jalapenos. Some restaurant. I don't know what it's called.

[Bobby Bones]

Sounds like you had three different dinners.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Mozzarella sticks.

[Lunchbox]

Well, that's the appetizer, because you got to keep the kids like they're starving when you get to a restaurant. So you just order something right away so they get something out there to have, something to not on before their main course gets there. And restaurant was a little slow and. Yeah. So that. And then my wife ordered a salad, and she didn't eat it all. And I was like, well, I'm not going to let it go to waste. Better eat that sucker.

[Bobby Bones]

And Eddie's honor.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Thank you for doing that.

[Bobby Bones]

We had some ground turkey leftover. I basically just combined a bunch of leftovers last night. Did you know there's a setting on the microwave, and we don't have a new microwave, and you push it, and it just kind of figures out how long to heat it up?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Oh, no, I don't have that.

[Bobby Bones]

I need to ask my wife what the setting is, but I was. Because I did. There were some black beans. We had leftover and some rice from when my wife made salmon.

[Amy]

And you ate leftover rice from the night before.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

What's wrong with that?

[Amy]

I just keep seeing everyone. We're not supposed to do that. It could be deadly.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

What? What's wrong with you?

[Bobby Bones]

I did it from one day.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Amy, relax.

[Amy]

You need to ask for this to show up in your TikTok feed because it will terrify you.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't want to be terrified. I had some rice from the night before.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

So I had that, and so I mixed it all up, and it was kind of like a little Mexican bowl. Also in honor of Eddie. Hey, thank you, man.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

In honor of Eddie. And that was it. And then I just tried to stay awake and watch the Razorback basketball game.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

We need to know more about this setting. Setting, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah. Let me ask my wife, because mine.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Only has, like, popcorn and.

[Bobby Bones]

No, she said, I'll Just message her.

[Lunchbox]

Real quick.

[Amy]

So, like, it knows if it's frozen.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, what's the setting on the microwave that you told me to push? That cooked my food so perfectly last night and heated it up perfectly. We're talking about it right now on the show. Thanks.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

She's gonna be like, I just told you to put one minute.

[Bobby Bones]

No, she's like telling you she. She heats it.

[Amy]

Good.

[Bobby Bones]

When she heats, it's perfect because she heats it, then mixes it. And I never do that, but I forget the setting. But I pushed it. And I'm telling you, it is heated all throughout. I don't even know if it's like a new microwave thing. Everybody might have known about this setting for 10 years, and I didn't know about it. Okay, so she'll hit me back.

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Amy]

That makes sense.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Sounds cool.

[Bobby Bones]

There are buttons on the microwave I've never even explored. You know, Amy says she does curiosity walks where she goes and walks around new parts of her neighborhood. I feel like I could do this with a microwave because there's like all that's like 10 buttons. I never push those buttons.

[Amy]

Curiosity settings.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, so it's called Sensor reheat. I put a full plate in of leftovers that I made like a little Mexican dish out of. Just hit Sensor reheat, the whole thing.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

And it was good. Perfect.

[Bobby Bones]

That warmed up perfectly. Nothing even cold in the middle of it. So try that at home. Although there are probably 30% of the listeners right now that are going, yeah, moron, everybody knows that button. Let's go to Alexa in Austin. Hey, Alexa, you're on the show.

[Eddie]

Hey. Morning.

[Bobby Bones]

Morning.

[Eddie]

So, Bobby, you were mentioning earlier about every time you go to the dealership.

[Bobby Bones]

It feels like, not dealership. I want to make it. Make this. It's not the dealership. It is a place that works on cars, so they have.

[Amy]

They have their maintenance area.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I just don't want anybody to think it's like the Hyundai dealership.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

It's an auto shop.

[Bobby Bones]

It's an auto shop. Yes. Yes. Go ahead, Alexa. I'm sorry.

[Eddie]

Okay. When you. When you go to the auto shop. My dad used to be a mechanic way back in the 90s, and he said. He did mention to me one time. I remember that not everywhere, but in some places, it does happen, where maybe they might run up the time or tell you that there's different issues with your car that maybe aren't as important, but it's like. It's like upselling with, like, sales. It's a really easy way to kind of get someone to pay the auto shop more for something that they might not really have to deal with. So whenever I go to the auto shop, I always come back with a list of things, and my dad's like, no, you're fine, you're fine, you're fine. So there might be some truth to that, but that's just me, one person with my one story.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, I need, like, a husband to go with me and just make sure everything's right.

[Amy]

Maybe you could send it to her dad.

[Bobby Bones]

Taking advantage.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, that's a good idea.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I wouldn't even think about it. Except for the three or four times that I've been there, there's always been something extra that's, like, broken or wrong.

[Amy]

Have you considered going to a different auto shop?

[Bobby Bones]

Nah, this one's close.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

My house, it's convenient.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but, yeah, I imagine they do that. I was just hit with two tires yesterday.

[Amy]

What if you say next time you go, hey, every time I come here, there's always something, I said that last time.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

You did?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

And what did they say?

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Amy]

They're like, no, well, go somewhere else.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, we have a lot of broken stuff. Yeah, they hit me with two tires. Let's go over and talk to Josh. This is about Lunchbox's car wreck, when he was like, I feel great after the car wreck. Hey, Josh.

[Josh]

Hey. Morning, studio.

[Bobby Bones]

Morning.

[Josh]

Yeah, I've worked in the medical field for over 15 years, and I just wanted to say that no matter how you feel after an accident, like lunchboxes that you should always go get checked out. What happens in that situation is your body just becomes flooded with adrenaline because it's in a situation that's dangerous and it wants to get away. So you might not actually fully be feeling the effects of any damage to you. So it's always a good idea to go get checked out just to make sure when you're. When you're in a situation like you were in. And also, second part, if you don't get checked out so close and you are injured, the insurance companies are a lot harder to fight later on down the road if something is wrong.

[Bobby Bones]

How do you. How do you feel now?

[Lunchbox]

I gotta be honest, last night and this morning, my back has been very uncomfortable. The lower back.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you think it has anything to do with the testicle? The stomach?

[Lunchbox]

I would say that's more the wreck. And I took Advil.

[Bobby Bones]

We told you.

[Lunchbox]

And I was like, man. And I didn't want to say anything because I was like, man, my wife is going to be like, I told you, you should have gone to the doctor. I told you to.

[Bobby Bones]

After she.

[Lunchbox]

Hold on. And then I didn't want to tell you guys because you guys told me that, but I've been sitting over here just trying not to move my back because it hurts this morning.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, play it up, play it up. No, no, no.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

I like the voice.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. No, no, no, Let us have it. Start crying.

[Lunchbox]

No, I can't do that. But it has been uncomfortable since last night. You look uncomfortable, and I know, and it. So it does hurt. So I.

[Bobby Bones]

Which hurts worse, though? The swollen testicle?

[Lunchbox]

No, no, the bat.

[Bobby Bones]

I got it.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

The bat.

[Amy]

Wow. So it's taken first.

[Lunchbox]

Like what he said. And I even googled it this morning.

[Bobby Bones]

He's on you.

[Lunchbox]

I even googled it and it said. Yeah, because, like. And he's exactly what he said. Google said this morning about how you have all this adrenaline and then it flushes away and the hidden injuries, they pop up. So, I mean, we really told you.

[Bobby Bones]

You're really playing it good, though.

[Lunchbox]

No, no. So I had already made it in my mind that I was gonna have to stop by the ER on the way home and have him look at my back.

[Amy]

Er.

[Lunchbox]

Well, where else do I know?

[Amy]

Where does he go?

[Lunchbox]

Hey, where should I go? Should I go to the ER or what do I do?

[Josh]

I mean, I would definitely recommend the ER just from the standpoint of depending on the type of injury. Again, going back to the insurance company and getting them to pay for it in the event something More serious is at has happened you. I mean, the ER is always going to be kind of the best bet. And I get that, you know, oh, it's a couple days after the accident, but still, I mean, that would be personally different. What I've seen over the years, what would I would say to do.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, and this dude sounds really smart.

[Bobby Bones]

That thing you're doing at the end of your sentences where you're like, that's good. Keep doing that. Because it sounds like it hurts.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah, dude, it really does.

[Bobby Bones]

We have to scrub the Internet from when he goes, I'm great. Never felt better.

[Lunchbox]

No, I did. I felt good those days, but had all that adrenaline. I'm telling you, last night, it started like, oh, this is not comfortable. And I woke up this morning still not comfortable. And I've been trying to be real chill and not say anything because I want to be tough, but it hurts. So. See, I don't like confessing this stuff to you guys like, I confessed.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Dude, forget your pride, man. Your body hurts.

[Lunchbox]

It does.

[Bobby Bones]

How much money would you like?

[Lunchbox]

No, no, there's not. It's not money.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yes, it is.

[Lunchbox]

No, it is.

[Amy]

You're telling us you're going to go through all this?

[Bobby Bones]

The guy wants money for every reason.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

He always says, like, my name's going to be on the building.

[Lunchbox]

Hold on. I didn't say I wouldn't take any money.

[Bobby Bones]

But you got to ask.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah. What do you want?

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, you should just go to, like, Morgan and Morgan or something instead of er.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Good one.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know.

[Lunchbox]

I got to get my back looked at first so I can go to Morgan.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

You can do it the same time. Same time. You can call Morgan and Morgan and be like, I'm in the hospital right.

[Lunchbox]

Now and they'll come meet me there.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah, dude, we don't even have a deal with Morgan and Morgan. But I just see the billboards up there everywhere.

[Lunchbox]

But, yeah, so I will be stopping at the ER after this.

[Commercial Announcer]

Yeah, keep doing it.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, I'm telling you guys, it is. I can't really.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Is it hard to walk?

[Lunchbox]

It hurts, like, to move and bend over and stuff. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So your quality of life.

[Amy]

I like your kids. You can't pick them up.

[Bobby Bones]

You can't pick up your kids.

[Lunchbox]

Right. Last night they wanted me to slam them on the couch. I said, guys, I can't lunchbox.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Is it hard for you to get into a car? Just like the memories? Is it hard to sit in a car?

[Lunchbox]

What are you, emotional trauma, Eddie?

[Bobby Bones]

You're right.

[Lunchbox]

Getting In a car is very traumatic now, like, sitting in the. If I'm on the road, I'm.

[Bobby Bones]

Ah, that's tough. Do you know who hit you yet?

[Lunchbox]

I do know the gender of the individual that did hit me on the road.

[Bobby Bones]

We're doing a gender reveal for his accident.

[Lunchbox]

Y.

[Bobby Bones]

Bring the cake in. We'll cut it, see if it's big.

[Lunchbox]

I had a listener reach out that said they saw it, that they exit. They were exiting the exit, that I was pulled over on the side of the road, and they saw they had come from the other way, and they saw a guy sitting in the other car.

[Amy]

Oh, so that's a male.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

That's the gender. Got it.

[Lunchbox]

It was a male. They were sitting in the front seat. The airbags deployed, and I was like, that's exactly the wreck. And they were like, yeah, it was a dude. So I know it is now a dude. That's all I know.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

That's all you know?

[Bobby Bones]

You don't know?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

It was a Jeep, right? Like some kind of Jeep SUV from the video?

[Amy]

Yeah, like a smaller Jeep.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, it looked like a little car after it got done with the Toyota.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you going to the emergency room today?

[Lunchbox]

I really am. Okay, like, no joke.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, do that.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, guys, that. That voice is real.

[Bobby Bones]

It hurts.

[Lunchbox]

It does hurt.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you on Cialis right now, too?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

No. Please say no.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, you always.

[Amy]

Oh, my God.

[Bobby Bones]

So your back hurts and you're taking Cialis right now?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, and Advil, Calis and Advil.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you mix Calis and Advil?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know.

[Amy]

We should Google that.

[Bobby Bones]

It's our.

[Amy]

It's our medical person still.

[Bobby Bones]

Josh Lunchbox is taking Cialis, and right now he's on it. And Advil. You think that's okay with his back issue?

[Josh]

Oh, I'm not claiming to be a doctor here. So I. I would say, you know, that's up to Lunchboxes.

[Lunchbox]

I thought he was a doctor.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I said he was working in the medical field.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, so he's an accountant.

[Bobby Bones]

Who cares?

[Amy]

According to Google, it's generally safe to combine the two.

[Bobby Bones]

But what about his back injury and the Cialis? You got to think that that's not helping. Like, there's some real tension down there now in a place where there doesn't need to be tension.

[Amy]

Oh, wait, now it says, but you should definitely check with your doctor or pharmacist first.

[Lunchbox]

Well, they weren't open. Like, doc, hey, Doc. It's 4:00, doc. I take Advil. No, they don't. They're not aware.

[Bobby Bones]

I think it's about your back injury. Can you take Cialis if you have a back injury?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. And I didn't care. I was. I mean, I just said, oh, there's Advil sitting on the counter. Let me take some of that. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

With Cialis?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it was right next to the Cialis bottle.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Thank you, Josh. Appreciate that.

[Lunchbox]

Wait, what does he do in the medical field?

[Bobby Bones]

Josh, do you want to share what you do in the medical field?

[Josh]

Yeah, I. I'm imaging tech, Radiology. So I'd be the guy taking your X rays if you came into the er.

[Lunchbox]

Okay.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

He's around it.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, he's around it.

[Bobby Bones]

That works. All right, Josh, have a great day, man.

[Josh]

All right, you, too. Thank you.

[Eddie]

Bye.

[Bobby Bones]

You guys call us if you want. 8, 7, 7, 7, 7.

[Lunchbox]

Bobby?

[Bobby Bones]

Hello, Bobby Bones. My husband still has a lot of nostalgic items from his childhood. Baseball cards, action figures, bobbleheads, old video game systems. I know those things mean something to him. I don't want to hurt his feelings or erase his past, but we're running out of space. It feels like we're holding onto boxes of memories that never get used or displayed. I don't want to come across as controlling or dismissive, especially for what matters to him, but I just don't know how to have the conversation without sounding like I'm asking him to give a piece of himself. Is it reasonable to ask him to let go of some of it, or do I need to let this go instead? Thanks. Why? Feeling torn?

[Amy]

I mean, I think it's reasonable to ask for some sort of a solution. And then you also, depending on his answer, might need to let it go.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. And I don't think the solution is get a storage unit. I think that's the easy. But that's this money that you pay all the time. Like, they really got a business over there in the storage unit, because you. It's basically just a trash. One step above the trash, you may never get back to that stuff, but you're putting it there just in case. It's like junior varsity hoarding. If you're putting stuff in a storage unit.

[Amy]

But not always.

[Bobby Bones]

No. But a lot of times, yeah, because, like, I have stuff in a storage unit that I go, if I don't get to it in a year, it leaves. Because I don't want to pay a storage unit bill, which is going to end up being thousands, Thousands of dollars for 10 years for stuff I'm never Going to look at. So I would say do not allow that to be the answer because he's never using it. I would ask him, hey, we're out of space. Can you cut 30% down? What I would do first is say, can you get rid of all your stuff and let him. Oh, and then go, okay, let's compromise 60%. No, that's too much. But the whole time I'm like, I'm aiming for 30%.

[Amy]

Interesting tactic.

[Bobby Bones]

And then get him at 30%. And if you can get rid of 30% of the stuff because again, he's never going to use it. He's never going to look at it. But he probably wants to have it there just in case he needs to. Like there's something about that time of his life that makes also, you could slowly get rid of one little thing at a time and he'll have no idea.

[Amy]

No, he needs to be a part of it. These are his cards.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I hear you.

[Amy]

Well, how would you feel if that was done to you?

[Bobby Bones]

I'd never notice.

[Amy]

Oh, interesting.

[Bobby Bones]

Really?

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

If you're like getting rid of one thing a month, one little thing. If there's like boxes and boxes we ain't noticing.

[Amy]

What if one day you go to look for like one specific car that's worth a ton and if she doesn't.

[Bobby Bones]

Know what she's gonna be in a box, if it's worth a ton, it's not gonna be in a random box and a bunch of crap. Oh, like I have stuff in safes at the bank. If it's worth stuff, I, it's somewhere that it's valued. If it's just in boxes from the old days, I would ask for him to cut back some and if he doesn't, you could probably go to the bottom and just remove stuff and get rid of it one day slowly. Yeah, I don't think he would ever notice. But don't do a storage unit cuz that's money spent, money lost. Ask him to get rid of it, he'll throw a fit. Ask him to do a half of it, he'll throw a fit, settle on 30. Even though that was your goal the whole time. And that clears a little space out. That's what I would say, dude. Good luck though. Because guys are. We're just oddly attached to crap. Dumb, crap, crap, dumb, stupid stuff. Yeah, yeah. Like I got a 1990 Jerome Walton rated rookie. It's all bent up, but I keep it because it made me feel good.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Oh, that's cool. Keep that one, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what I'm saying. Like, I don't need it. It's worth nothing.

[Lunchbox]

All right, there you go.

[Bobby Bones]

Close it up. Lunchbox was wearing some Red Clay Strays merch that they brought us when they came to play the show a long time ago. He wears all the merch. What are you wearing right now, by the way? So we're losers.

[Lunchbox]

Sore losers. Merch. Yeah, absolutely.

[Bobby Bones]

You were wearing Red Clay Strays like a hoodie?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it was a hoodie. They gave us all hoodies. And I was like, this is the best band ever, because they actually gave us something we can use. And I was wearing it around town. And I didn't realize the Red Clay Strays were so popular.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, they won ICMA this year when they came in, they weren't yet. They were, to me, a band I found on Tick Tock. And I was like, these guys are so good. They're so good now that, yeah, they're massive. You didn't know?

[Lunchbox]

No, I didn't know. But I'm at the grocery store and the cashier was like, oh, my gosh. They have such great music. I just love them. I'm like, all right, cool. And I have nothing to say because I don't know anything.

[Bobby Bones]

You can't name a song.

[Lunchbox]

I don't know any. I don't even know. I don't remember what they look like. And then I'm at the dog park, and the girl goes, oh, my gosh. Have you ever seen them in concert? They put on a fantastic show. They're coming back to Nashville this. This year, and I cannot wait. And I'm just like, no, I've never seen him live. She goes, oh, you have to go. And she just starts talking to me. I'm like, I just got the hoodie. I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

I think even you, who doesn't like music, just generally speaking, I think even you would like their music.

[Lunchbox]

Like what? Like, what does it sound like?

[Amy]

They perform multiple songs.

[Bobby Bones]

They did a whole set in here.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

When she asked you, have you ever seen them live?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. You've seen them six inches from your face.

[Lunchbox]

And then at basketball practice, one of the most like, oh, my gosh, that band, probably my favorite artist right now. That is who I'm listening to all the time. And I was like, three times in one day. Like, when did these guys get so big?

[Bobby Bones]

They've been getting big for a while.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Again, they won cma, I think, for Group Vocal Group of the year this year.

[Lunchbox]

Okay. Yeah. So Red Clay Strays guys taking over the world. Apparently they are the hottest thing in the planet.

[Bobby Bones]

We can play Red Clay Strays now. Why don't we play? Well, Wondering why?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah, I think you want that one.

[Amy]

And you can just do the QR code if you want to date her.

[Amy]

Yeah. So it's her way of working smarter, not harder to find a husband. And so it pretty much the shirt says something like, you know, like what you see or feel anything or whatever. Then they can scan it and they have all her info. So it's like she's a walking billboard for herself.

[Bobby Bones]

I think the idea is great but do you know how many creepy dudes.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Are going to be QR coding her and hitting her up?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

I felt something. You don't want that.

[Bobby Bones]

I, I think it's a brilliant idea in a vacuum. But the vacuum doesn't usually have weirdo creepo dudes.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Walking around. Has she had any success, do you know?

[Amy]

Not that I know of. I just saw it and I was like, well that's clever. I mean, you know, we've heard of people actually making billboards but to put a QR code on yourself, that's bold, hot or not. Well, that's up for you to decide.

[Bobby Bones]

Would you say that guys would think she is physically attractive? Because you can kind of tell. Because I can tell if a dude's hot.

[Amy]

Well, let me go look again. Let me look.

[Bobby Bones]

I think to the people that put up billboards, don't have a lot of luck with that. I think it's fun we talk about it. But I think again there is the quantity of people messaging somebody on a billboard going, you like what you see the quantity of people. There's going to be so many weirdos. Hopefully she doesn't have too much personal information on her website when you go to it with that QR code.

[Amy]

Yeah. Let's hope she's not like, here's my address.

[Bobby Bones]

If you were like somebody that had a good head on your shoulders, successful and you're a woman, you saw a guy with this, would you do this?

[Amy]

I mean, I don't know. It just depends. I mean what y' all say all the time. If there's an initial attraction, like if I felt something or I Thought he was really cute. I might. And I'd be like, oh, what a fun personality.

[Bobby Bones]

This would be cool for, like. For a movie.

[Lunchbox]

Movie.

[Bobby Bones]

Like promo or something. You didn't know. You know that teacher that looks like Kevin James? We talked about that. Yeah, that movie's finally coming out, I think in February. It is Kevin Bones. I'm not gonna act like I even understand the pregnant woman's body. My wife is very pregnant, and so she's getting really bad indigestion. And what the doctors tell her and what she's found out by researching it is a lot of people get indigestion at a high level when they're pregnant because the baby has a lot of hair. That's one of the factors. So because of that, she has to do things to limit her indigestion, because I think it burns her really bad. And they say if you sleep sitting up or more of a slant, that helps. Now, if our bed is slanted, that means I also have to sleep slanted. So we have this slanted mattress now, or it's something we put on top of our bed that is so slanted. I feel like I'm seeking an airplane seat.

[Amy]

Oh, wow. Like a. Like a wedge.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a wedge. So I was upstairs last night. I tried, and I want her to be comfortable, and I think it's helping her, but it's. It's like a. Like a. Yeah, like a wedge salad.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Like a hospital bed is kind of what I'm picturing.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, there is no button. It's always up.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

It's always like that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Permanent, so.

[Amy]

Oh, can you cut it in half?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, that's what I said, and she said no.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You have to cut it all the way in half. But then it goes on top of the bed, and there's. You have to, like, do two sets of covers and.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So I'm sleeping slanted. Well, I tried to sleep. First night I did, and I didn't sleep very well. Second night, I fell asleep and woke up, and I felt like I was, like, leaning up, and I was like, I can't do this. So I went upstairs.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

How do you get out of the bed? Like, do you tell her, like, I can't do this.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm going, no, very quietly. But I'm used to getting out of the bed very quietly because I wake up at an ungodly hour. And so the first thing I do while I'm covered up because I. Everything pops on me is I take and I kind of get semi fetal and I pop under the covers because if I just turn my leg. Oh, well, that was my foot hitting.

[Amy]

Oh, okay.

[Bobby Bones]

It did pop. It popped as well, but also. Also kicked the chair.

[Amy]

I thought, oh, my gosh.

[Bobby Bones]

But they're so loud in the morning. The pops will wake her up.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So while completely covered, I get somewhat fetal and do pop, pop, and then I slide. Because if I pull the covers at all while she's covered, it's like someone's pulling the covers off of her. So I don't want to manipulate the covers at all. So I lift the covers up with my left hand because I sleep on the right side of the bed. Lift the covers up, and I slide and I put my feet down. My knees are already popped. I try not to unbend my elbows because they'll pop too. And then I. I leave my shorts and sweatshirt outside the door because I know I'm going to be cold. And I get out, I WD40 the door once a week because it goes. Sounds like home improvement. And so that doesn't make a noise. And I put the clothes on and I go into the living room. Wow. It's a process not to wake her up.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

It's like mission impossible.

[Bobby Bones]

And I definitely don't want to wake her up now that she is pregnant because I think it's hard for her to sleep. Her heart rate is all. We wear these rings that it attracts your everything. And she has trouble sleeping through the night a lot of times because her heart rate is so high, because her body's, you know, creating a human.

[Amy]

Sleeping elevated is really good for you, though.

[Bobby Bones]

Not for me because I don't sleep. I wake up.

[Amy]

Oh, well, I mean, just because you're not used to it yet, but you'd be less. Do you ever wake up and are you puffy?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. I don't think so.

[Eddie]

Oh, okay.

[Amy]

Well, maybe.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. I don't even look.

[Amy]

I started sleeping elevated and it just helps. Like when I wake up, like, I don't have the puffiness because your head is draining. Like while you sleep, your brain is draining and things are flowing down. And so when you're laying flat, it just drains out. And that's why when you wake up and you look in the mirror and you're like, oh, I look puffy. And sometimes you. Like an hour later you'll look different because everything's drained down. But if you sleep at a slant, then it doesn't get stuck in your face.

[Bobby Bones]

A lot of times I'll sleep upside down. The closet, like a bat. Really? You guys ever try that?

[Amy]

No, that's a little different.

[Lunchbox]

You open the closet on there.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Hey, what's up?

[Bobby Bones]

But that's the stage we're at now is she's having trouble sleeping. So we built a slanted bed, and I'm having trouble sleeping.

[Amy]

You built a slanted bed?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm having trouble sleeping on the slanted bed.

[Amy]

So you built it?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, we put it on there. It feels like we built it. We built a slant.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Sounded good, though, when you said it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it did.

[Amy]

It sounded like you were actually.

[Bobby Bones]

It was just something we put on top of the bed that had a slant on it. You get it, Bones. So since Lunchbox got in the wreck, does he have no cars? Did he get a car?

[Lunchbox]

Does his wife not have a car?

[Bobby Bones]

What's the whole story on that later part?

[Josh]

Tour.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so for those that don't know, Lunchbox's car broke down, like, two years ago. He never got another car. He started riding his bike to work, and he was like, why do I need a car? So then you were driving the family suv?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I was driving the family suv. Got in a very serious car wreck. Lucky to be alive, escape with no injuries. Car was going 60. Nailed me in the back.

[Bobby Bones]

I saw someone comment if it was stop and go traffic. How did you get hit by Somebody going 60? Were you at the very back of the stop and go traffic?

[Lunchbox]

Yep. Huh.

[Bobby Bones]

The odds.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, I know the odds. Like, it was literally, like it was just starting to bottle up, and I came upon it, and then boom. Boom.

[Bobby Bones]

So what's the deal on the car?

[Lunchbox]

Car is so my wife. That is her car. So we will be getting a rental.

[Bobby Bones]

So that's it. That's the one car you guys have. And it's beat up.

[Lunchbox]

It's beat up.

[Bobby Bones]

So how. How are you guys getting anywhere?

[Lunchbox]

I. It's drivable. It pulls a little bit, right?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah. That's not good.

[Lunchbox]

I. I know it's. It's not great, but it does pull a little bit.

[Bobby Bones]

Right.

[Lunchbox]

But talk to the insurance and working on getting a rental, hopefully today or tomorrow. They are setting it up at the rental car place, and I go pick up a rental car.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you want to hear Lunchbox's 911 call?

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

So we're able to go and contact them and get it. And so this is the call of Lunchbox after the accident.

[Amy]

Hit it Friday, January 9th. The time is 4:20pm, 91 1.

[Eddie]

What's your emergency?

[Lunchbox]

Yes, ma' Am. I was. I was just in a wreck.

[Eddie]

Okay, where are you located?

[Lunchbox]

65 northbound, right before the Moore's Lane exit.

[Eddie]

Okay. Is anybody with you?

[Lunchbox]

No, I'm by myself.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, man.

[Amy]

Oh, gosh.

[Eddie]

Okay. And where was your vehicle hit?

[Lunchbox]

I got rear ended. It was like I was slowing down. Like, it's kind of, you know, stop and go traffic, and, I mean, the car hit me just boom, right in the back. I mean, didn't even. Didn't hit the brakes.

[Eddie]

Okay, what kind of vehicle do you have?

[Lunchbox]

It's a Toyota Highlander, and I'm. I'm pulled over on the right shoulder.

[Eddie]

Do you have any injuries? Are you okay?

[Lunchbox]

I get. My back's just. I mean, I wouldn't say injury. It's just. I can feel it's a little tight, a little sore, but.

[Eddie]

Was anyone else injured in maybe the other vehicle? Have you spoken with anybody?

[Lunchbox]

I don't know. Their. Their car became disabled right when it hit me, and it's about 100 yards back, and it's still in the middle of the lane, and I. I don't know if they're okay, but I haven't. I can't see them.

[Eddie]

Okay, we're going to send over EMS right away.

[Lunchbox]

All right, thank you so much.

[Bobby Bones]

Can I ask you a question? I don't want you to take offense to this at all. Just genuine. When you're calling 911 now, do you know that we have access to it? And so do you do a bit when you call? Yeah. Because you're doing even sound effects with her. You're like. And they were going to. Boom. It hit me. Do you know?

[Lunchbox]

No. That's literally what I said. I. I don't understand.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, no. I just am asking if you're being performative, because, you know, anytime you call, we track it down.

[Amy]

And then you're also, like, between every sentence.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man, that's my back hurting.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah. No, I completely see why you would react the way you did.

[Lunchbox]

Like, she was asking me. I. I felt like she was asking me, like, what happened? And I was trying to explain. Like, I was sitting there and boom, I got hit in the back.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, you didn't even mention your smoothie.

[Amy]

I know. He was like, I'm driving alone. And I'm like, no, no.

[Lunchbox]

I don't feel like that was 911 material. I don't think she needed to know about my smoothie. Like, if she would have said, hey, was there any explosions in your car? I said, yeah, man. My smoothie. Banana.

[Bobby Bones]

Strawberry.

[Lunchbox]

Right now, peanut butter banana. Yeah, it was. I mean, it is so gross, man. So. Yeah, I. I don't think I was. I'm telling you, like, it was just like I was trying to move around. I was just like, ah, that does kind of hurt. You know, just testing out to see how my body felt. You.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

You have a good point. Because, like, in the past, we've had calls, and it's been like, I am. There's someone here. Whatever.

[Bobby Bones]

This one's more like, yeah, he's doing a bit.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm surprised he didn't go. That was your bonehead story of the day.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

He even threw in kind of like a. Let's just say.

[Lunchbox]

No, I didn't.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Yeah, you said something like that. That you would normally say when you're doing.

[Lunchbox]

I said. I said, I don't know. The car is 100 yards back because it became disabled when it hit me. Like, she asked me if anybody else was hurting that car.

[Bobby Bones]

We're glad you're okay.

[Lunchbox]

I. I didn't know.

[Bobby Bones]

We're glad you're okay. I just. I genuinely wonder if you're calling 911 because you do so much that you know we're gonna go track it down so you perform a little more.

[Lunchbox]

I didn't even think I was performing. I thought I was just talking.

[Bobby Bones]

You were.

[Lunchbox]

I was kind of in. What do you call that? A shock, That adrenaline, like, whoa. Like, oh, my gosh, what just happened?

[Amy]

Yeah, that. That I believe for sure. But also, when you. Any chance you get an opportunity to call 91 1, do you get a little excited? Like, are you, like.

[Bobby Bones]

Because you love calling nine one.

[Lunchbox]

It's really cool.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Ooh.

[Bobby Bones]

Like a rush, you know, you're taking Cialis. It doesn't feel the same when you call 91 1.

[Lunchbox]

No, I'm not taking Cialis for that.

[Bobby Bones]

But you are taking Cialis.

[Lunchbox]

I am on Cialis.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Are you on it right now?

[Friend/Fellow Host]

You're not on it.

[Lunchbox]

I am on it right now.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Why would you do that?

[Amy]

That's the thing. It's not like your body knows, like, oh, this is only supposed to be used for this.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

It said, take this once a day.

[Bobby Bones]

Take it after the show, after work. Take your Cialis when you're not around us.

[Amy]

He's on Cialis and he hurt himself on 911. Oh, my gosh.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Double rush.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, we're done here.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Wake up.

[Bobby Bones]

You wake up in the morning, then you turn the radio on, and the dial just keeps on turning. This wigs next bit. And Bobby's on the mic. So you know what this is? We've got 90 seconds. It's time for the investigative morning Corny. How many can we get? Right. Here we go.

[Lunchbox]

This story comes to us from Michigan. A 44 year old man went to pick up his son from school last week. And they're like, sir, it's 30 minutes till dismissal. You're gonna have to wait till the school school day's over. So he went outside the school, fired his gun. No, no, it gets better. So he was in front of the judge, you know, facing the charges, and he started sticking his fingers in the ears going, I can't hear you. Sorry, can't hear you.

[Bobby Bones]

He has a mental problem. Yeah, like he's not. Something's not right.

[Lunchbox]

No, they don't say anything about that.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I'm just judging it based off of what you've shared.

[Amy]

Right.

[Lunchbox]

And then he told the judge to get a real job.

[Bobby Bones]

He's either under the influence of something a lot of the time or he needs some psychiatric help.

[Amy]

Anyway, you think his time in court, he's Been detained somewhere and unable to be under the influence.

[Bobby Bones]

But I don't know. They held him the whole time until court. Did they?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah, they did.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, they did. Well, so there you go. Unless he's in Rikers.

[Amy]

Yeah, true.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

They get stuff in there.

[Amy]

I mean, you don't even want to know how.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I just said it, so you don't want to know.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day.

[Bobby Bones]

There's a huge suspension bridge in northern Michigan. You can walk across it. It's called Skybridge. And right now in northern Michigan, it's very snowy. So you walk across it. It looks awesome. There's a lot of snow underneath you. You don't want to fall off. For sure. You don't want to drop anything off it either. This guy's proposing and he drops the ring.

[Amy]

Oh, my gosh.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you imagine how helpless you're feeling as that thing starts to slip out? When I take a bath, I hold my phone with all my might because if my phone falls in the bathtub, my day's over. It sucks. I can't imagine how secure I would keep a ring.

[Amy]

If you're on your phone a lot in the bath, I feel like we need to get you a little loopy or something.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't draw my phone in the bathtub, but we.

[Amy]

It's clearly something you do a lot.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm on my phone every day in the bathroom.

[Amy]

Yeah. So in this case, yeah. If you're on a bridge with a ring, like tie that. Tie a string around it.

[Bobby Bones]

That's for sure what I thought about. If I can focus on holding my phone and making sure I don't drop it in the bath. You gotta hold that ring with all your might, buddy.

[Amy]

Didn't you get nervous?

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

Well, sweaty hands.

[Bobby Bones]

I get nervous in the sweaty hands in the bathtub. I don't take a cold bath. I take a hot bath. So he proposed. His girlfriend said yes, but he was fumbling and he dropped the ring. The bridge is over 100ft up. Big ski slope underneath it. So they go off the bridge, they go down to where it is. They spent two hours searching. They had a metal detector. They gave up around 10pm Completely dark. But an employee at Boyne Mountain Resort named Pat Harper said, hey, I'll go back out and find it. Goes out nighttime. Spends about 30 to 45 minutes, finds it.

[Amy]

Wow, that's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

At night, in the snow.

[Friend/Fellow Host]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

That's from sunny skies. Big shout out to Pat Harper.

[Amy]

Yeah, the employee that went out.

[Bobby Bones]

But bro, you gotta hold that ring with all your might. I want you to picture me. Anybody that's going through this, picture me in the bathtub holding my phone. That's how I want you to hold your ring when you're proposing. Like this. All right, that's it. Thank you everybody. Hope you have a great rest of the day. Megan Maroney is on tomorrow's show.
