[Amy]

In the middle of the night, Saskia awoke in a haze. Her husband Mike was on his laptop. What was on his screen would change Saskia's life forever.

[Bobby Bones]

I said, I need you to tell.

[Amy]

Me exactly what you're doing. And immediately the mask came off. You're supposed to be safe.

[Bobby Bones]

That's your home.

[Amy]

That's your husband. Listen to Betrayal Season 5 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Bobby Bones]

Here we go. Come on, Bobby.

[Caller/Guest]

Transmitting across America.

[Bobby Bones]

Turn it.

[Amy]

This is.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's go. Welcome to Thursday's show, Morning studio. Morning. Over 80,000 Keurig decaf pods had caffeinated coffee in them. It looks like.

[Amy]

Oh, oopsie. That could be terrible for somebody that can't have caffeine or just that wants.

[Bobby Bones]

To go to sleep.

[Eddie]

Right?

[Bobby Bones]

I would think there are more of those people out there, the people that are allergic to caffeine. But yeah. Can you be so allergic to caffeine you die?

[Amy]

Well, I guess I don't mean like allergic, but some people, like if heart issues or something.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Like my brother had a stroke. He can't have caffeine.

[Bobby Bones]

But what if he has it?

[Lunchbox]

I don't want.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't want of these.

[Eddie]

I don't know. That'd be bad.

[Bobby Bones]

NBC News, there's a recall. It's been issued for more than 80,000 Keurig coffee pods. According to the FDA. Whoopsie. A little bit. When you drink decaf, aren't you just risking it that it possibly could be caffeinated? Because I used to work at restaurants and if you're out of decaf, you just poured caffeinated in.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

What?

[Amy]

Why wouldn't you just say we're out of decaf?

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't do that.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

But it would happen.

[Amy]

Yeah. All right. Yeah, that's risky.

[Bobby Bones]

Isn't that just a risk you take?

[Eddie]

No, I've never thought of that. Like, I just trust it. Like, one's decaf, one's not.

[Amy]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

While very rare, you can die from a severe acute allergic reaction to caffeine. Wow. So I don't think that's happening a lot here, but it could. Like, even one death is one death.

[Amy]

Yeah. But I feel like if you are severely allergic to caffeine, you just stay away from it all.

[Bobby Bones]

You know why? Because you knows what you're dealing with. Coffee.

[Amy]

Even in decaf, is there the tiniest trace? I'm not talking about like this. Where it was like.

[Bobby Bones]

Of what? Cocaine?

[Eddie]

No, caffeine.

[Amy]

Caffeine.

[Bobby Bones]

Like when you say trace, I always. That's what I see in all these drug shows. Traces of coke. John.

[Amy]

I need to watch a documentary on it because how do they decaffeinate the bean?

[Bobby Bones]

Anyway, decaf coffee does contain small amounts of caffeine.

[Eddie]

I told you so.

[Amy]

I know it's a small amount, but that one, that's just a given across the board. It's not going to impact you. But what the. What they're saying is in their pods, they had more than the usual small amount.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Next up, the South Carolina measles outbreak reaches 789 cases. I saw that.

[Eddie]

I had to check the date on that article.

[Bobby Bones]

Measle.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I thought it was 1861.

[Eddie]

What date is this?

[Bobby Bones]

Same.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I was like, where's my Edgar Allan Poe news? Measles in South Carolina has spread to 789 people, surpassing the 2025 West Texas outbreak that killed kids. And there were 762 in that one. The majority of cases remain centered in Spartanburg county, mostly among people who were unvaccinated. There have been 89 new cases confirmed since last Friday. The outbreak is not under control. Health officials said that 557 people are in quarantine for 21 days.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Whoa.

[Amy]

Crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, listen, here's a couple things I love. Ready? Go ahead.

[Eddie]

Water.

[Bobby Bones]

My wife, My dogs. Vaccines. That's it. The razorback. Oh, oh, there's more. Yeah, I'm just saying. Vaccines way up there on that list. That's how we're not in the 1800s because we've developed those. Mr. Beast. Back in the news, we had Amy's son on the podcast on Tuesday and he was talking about Mr. Beast. I was like, do you watch any streamers? He's like, well, Mr. Beast. And so the kids love Mr. Beast. He gifted a 12 year old a bionic arm.

[Amy]

Oh, that's cool. Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

He surprised a 12 year old boy born without his right hand with a custom bionic arm at an open bionics clinic in Austin, Texas. The child's family had been unable to afford a bionic prosthetic through insurance or crowdfunding. The personalized hero pro arm now allows him to perform two handed activities and has significantly improved his independence and confidence. From the New York Post. Big shout out to Mr. Beast. Amy, can you name Mr. Beast? Real name?

[Amy]

No, I do not know it. I can tell you what he looks like, but that's about it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I have a beef with what he looks like.

[Amy]

Why?

[Bobby Bones]

Because he doesn't look like a beast.

[Amy]

Not at all.

[Bobby Bones]

He doesn't like a normal dude, like friendly, kind of nerdy. Yeah, like I like it. He's not.

[Amy]

He's not what you would expect by that name.

[Bobby Bones]

Beast. I expect somebody like Chris Hemsworth. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Big dude.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Big, big dude or. Yeah. Like he. His name sounds like what Lunchbox should look like.

[Eddie]

But you don't look like.

[Bobby Bones]

He doesn't look like that.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

He also is like super.

[Amy]

That's the similarity they.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Have is a lot of people think lunchbox.

[Bobby Bones]

There's Mr. Beast and Mr. Least and they both. They both don't really.

[Lunchbox]

Who's Mr. Lease?

[Eddie]

Well, just a.

[Bobby Bones]

You tell us a little joke. His name is Jimmy Donaldson.

[Lunchbox]

Really?

[Eddie]

I never knew that.

[Lunchbox]

I never heard that.

[Amy]

It's like Jason Gibble.

[Eddie]

It is the similarities.

[Bobby Bones]

And finally, from Hill Dickinson, which is a law firm and we've been dealing with a massive ice storm that has crippled our town. Trees falling all over the place. Can your boss make you come to work when there's bad weather?

[Amy]

I don't. I guess he can't make you because like you're going to risk your life.

[Bobby Bones]

Workplace experts say employers should not encourage staff to travel when it's not safe, such as when there's heavy snow or ice, because if they were to get in an accident, the company could get in some legal trouble, especially if weather authorities warn people not to travel by car. Or public transportation. I know of a couple stories where restaurants told people that I know that they're like, if you don't come in, you're going to lose your job.

[Amy]

Oh, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Yikes. So, hey, maybe you call Hill Dickinson, let him represent you.

[Eddie]

He's got you.

[Bobby Bones]

Our thing is always, even if you have a cold, if you can't come in, don't come in. If it's ice, email goes out. You think, look, if somebody spills ice on the road from a bag of ice and you feel like that's too risky, don't come in. So, yeah, that's kind of the rule of law there. So there you go. Hello, Bobby Bones. My boyfriend and I have been together about two years. We got engaged recently. He treats me wonderfully. And he treats my kids wonderfully. I have noticed during our entire two year relationship though, that he has a major wandering eye. I know that it's normal to notice other attractive people. I get it. That's not the problem for me. The problem for me is it takes me out of my safety zone. Because he doesn't just look or notice. He stares. Particularly. A couple weeks ago I had my work formal and I was dressed to the nines. But through the night, he definitely gawked repeatedly. He didn't stare at me. He was not in awe of me. It seemed he was in awe of other people. It made me so uncomfortable. Again, I know that it's normal to notice other attractive people, but I feel like there's a healthy limit and he just can't help himself. Do you feel like this is disrespectful? Sign securely insecure. Amy, you be her.

[Amy]

Oh, I don't like this at all. Oh, the creepy feels uncomfortable.

[Bobby Bones]

The staring feels creepy.

[Amy]

Totally creepy. And I would be embarrassed because if you're not the only one noticing it, I mean, if he's that obvious other people, he's like the creepy stare guy and that's just uncomfortable. And while he might be good to you and your kids, like, I hope you're not settling because of that.

[Bobby Bones]

Engaged. He treats him amazing. Is that something you're willing to go, you know what?

[Amy]

Amazing. But he creepily stares at other people.

[Bobby Bones]

So what would you do then?

[Eddie]

Yeah, do you tell him something? What do you do?

[Amy]

I'm very. I'm very turned off by this.

[Bobby Bones]

So, like, is this a conversation?

[Amy]

Oh, it's for sure a conversation. And if he can't change it, like it could be a deal breaker. Cuz it's creepy.

[Bobby Bones]

Could be or would be?

[Amy]

Could be. Cuz I don't know other variables at play.

[Bobby Bones]

If he makes up for it in every other way, he's perfect. But then he just stares at butts of women walking by.

[Amy]

Like noticeably stares.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like he is perfect in every way. And again, great to the kids, takes care of her, makes her feel safe. But. But when a girl walks by, he's just like.

[Amy]

I know.

[Bobby Bones]

Stares at her butt the whole time.

[Amy]

Yeah, that's just going to be so unattractive to me. It's going to be a huge turnoff. So I don't know that. I mean, she's obviously been putting up with it for the last two years though. That's hard. I mean, if he.

[Bobby Bones]

He's some advice.

[Amy]

Good men are hard to come by.

[Bobby Bones]

What if they're butt stairs with the butt?

[Amy]

Serious. I can't give her advice and tell her what to do because I probably wake up with them.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Amy]

And I don't want to tell her that.

[Bobby Bones]

Your advice is break up with them?

[Amy]

No, no, that's. I wouldn't be. I would eventually be so disgusted because like he's gonna get older and it's gonna get worse and then he's the old creepy, scary guy. And I can't have that because it's.

[Bobby Bones]

Not worse that you just keep staring. It's worse when you get older. It seems creepier. Yeah, yeah. It's not that he's going to stare more, he's just gonna get older and that makes it creepier.

[Eddie]

Bad look.

[Amy]

And like, you do not want to be linked to creepy old stare guy.

[Eddie]

But Amy, you haven't told him anything. Like, does she talk to him?

[Amy]

Oh, yeah. Yeah, I see. This is a conversation. I said, if he doesn't change, what do you say? I say when you stare for long periods of time, other people, it makes me feel very uncomfortable and disrespected. And what I need for you is to not stare at people.

[Bobby Bones]

What if he says got it. And then he pulls a pair of sunglasses out and puts them on his head. It's like, I'll just wear these all the time. So you can't tell.

[Amy]

No, because now. Okay, now you're not being as creepy because not as obvious, but you're still being disrespectful. And I feel like she's trying to tell herself over and over. I get that it's normal to look at other people like there's only. So you can only tell yourself that statement for so long because. Yeah. You notice other attractive people and you choose not to Stare.

[Bobby Bones]

What if, though, he is a problem?

[Amy]

Yeah. This is not a good problem to have.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, there's something like he's a disorder, a staring disorder.

[Eddie]

I'm sure that that's got a name.

[Bobby Bones]

Some people don't communicate properly. And some people are close talkers. Some people are what if that's his thing.

[Amy]

Okay, Therapy.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so your advice is have a conversation.

[Amy]

Have a conversation. Tell him in a kind, intense, use, intentional dialogue like I did. When this happens, it makes me feel. And then what it brings up for me is this. And what I need from you is this.

[Bobby Bones]

And then if that doesn't work, hit us up, we'll give you more advice.

[Amy]

Well, it's probably break up.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, there you go. Close it up on the Bobby Bones show.

[Amy]

Now, Bailey Zimmerman.

[Bobby Bones]

Bailey, around Christmas had posted a TikTok and he surprised his mom in the new house.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

And then you ended up surprising her with an suv.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Starting off January of last year, after Cancun crashed, my playa, we get home from crash, my playa, and my mom gets really sick and she like, is in the hospital, like on a ventilator, like might die sick. She was one day away from dying. Basically she had went through, man, it was 20, 22 days on event or 23 days. Yeah, it was really crazy. It was. I was going to the hospital between tour and between everything and like, you know, staying at the hospital, my bus and then going to see her and we all honestly thought she was like not gonna make it. And then one day she just woke up and like, was good and like, you know, the vet came out and everything was good. And now she's alive. At that moment when she was just like really sick, she. She was like down kind of like rock bottom, you know, like all that time in the, in the hospital made her quit smoking cigarettes. So where my brain was like, man, she's really had a hard time. I want to get her a house. That's where it started. My mom had like, has always tried to give me like the best of the best whenever she didn't have it. And I'm like, I am at a point in my life where I've been very, very blessed and like, you know, the success and everything. I was like, I'm going to give her a fully new house and this is. I'm just going to do it. And I know I won't regret it, you know, in the future. You know, I'll just have to. Let's, you know, keep working hard, you know, when I started looking, there was this one house in town that my mom's best friend, her name was Joanie. And it caddy cornered my grandma's house. And my mom had grew up on that land riding dirt bikes where that house was built. And Joanie was my mom's best friend. Joanie built the house. She ended up dying in 2009, and it was a really, really bad time for my mom. And that house had just always meant a lot to her. And then it got sold to other people, and I ended up buying that house. And it catty corners my grandma. So now my mom can go right over to my grandma's grandma can come to her house. It's like a God given, like, blessing. So we went in, like, yeah, made it all new and black and white, and I gave her, like, a chill area. And how long did it take to.

[Bobby Bones]

Rebuild the house, like, the relations?

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Four months or so.

[Bobby Bones]

Was it hard to stay quiet about it as it was happening?

[Bailey Zimmerman]

So she had. I had went with her to the house because she thought I was looking for a house. So from then on, she didn't really know much. And I think she had this suspicion because there were so many people there, and there's not anybody in town that, like, would buy that, so. And I hadn't said anything, but she didn't say anything about it, so we just didn't say anything. I thought my grandma was gonna ruin it, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, your grandma knew?

[Bailey Zimmerman]

My grandma knew a little bit because she overheard some stuff. And then I was like, you better just chill out.

[Bobby Bones]

Were you trying to be Christmas?

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Yeah, that was like our thing. I really wanted to get it in by Christmas.

[Bobby Bones]

When you drove her by. When you drove her too. Why were you driving by? Were you going to your grandma's house? Finger quotes or what?

[Bailey Zimmerman]

I was just like, driving around, and I was just like, yeah, let's just go drive around. And then I told her we were making a video. I thought I needed to make it.

[Bobby Bones]

A better story than just driving around.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Okay, let's go drive around. Oh, I need to make a video.

[Bobby Bones]

And so when you drive by, that's her reaction? Her genuine reaction.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So I saw that video. But then it was like, there's more. It was like one of those 90s commercials that come on and then you back the truck, the suv, out of the garage.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Was she suspecting that at all?

[Bailey Zimmerman]

No, there was a lot of people. Like, she kind of seemed more overwhelmed about the car than she did the house. And I'm like. She's like, I can't keep Reading comments. All these comments. Anyone Negative. I just want to. I just want to DM him. I just want to tell him off. And I'm like, mom, just. It's okay. Like, just chill out. She was going, reading the comments, she was like, everybody thinks I was more excited about the car than the house. But yeah, she was really surprised when. When everybody was in the garage because I did the same thing for my grandma. There's another video of me giving my grandma a car. And I just used the same, like, kind for the video and how to like, surprise her with it. I just used the same, like, kind of idea. And I. Yeah, yeah. It was like, everybody hides in the garage. And then I. Cause I didn't know. I was like, okay, I can't be in the garage because she's gonna be like, what's going on? So I was like, hey, I need to. Said the same thing because we always make videos when I'm back home. So I was like, hey, I need to make another video. One earlier didn't. I don't know, I need to redo it. And she was like, okay. And then I just started video. And I was like, it did? Yeah, it was. Oh, it was so funny because she was like, you did this to grandma and now it's like flipped on me. So, yeah, it was, man. It's like what you dream, like literally as a kid and you watch it in the movies. You know, the rock star, like, you know, takes care of his family and like, it's just everything I was taught growing up too. Just like, when you get the chance to help people, that helped you. Like, man, my mom, bro, we've talked about this. The fifteen hundred dollars that my mom gave me to record my first song. I quit my job and needed fifteen hundred dollars to become a country singer. Like, how does. How crazy does that sound? And she was just like, yeah, perfect. Didn't have fifteen hundred dollars gave it to me. So it's like, man, I still got more to do, you know? Like, she still deserves more because I would. Without that 1500, where would I be now, you know?

In the middle of the night, Saskia awoke in a haze. Her husband Mike was on his laptop. What was on his screen would change Saskia's life forever.

[Bobby Bones]

I said, I need you to tell.

[Amy]

Me exactly what you're doing. And immediately the mask came off. You're supposed to be safe. That's your home.

[Bobby Bones]

That's your husband.

[Amy]

To keep this secret for so many years. He's like a seasoned pro. This is a story about the end of a marriage. But it's also the story of one woman who was done living in the Dark.

[Caller/Guest]

You're a dangerous person who preys on vulnerable and trusting people.

[Bobby Bones]

You're a creditor.

[Caller/Guest]

Michael Levengood.

[Amy]

Listen to Betrayal Season 5 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Bobby Bones]

It's time for the good news with Bobby. Tell me something good. Last month, a couple in California got engaged at a theater after viewing a special movie created by the groom to be. His name is Austin. And he asked his girlfriend, hey, let's go to a movie. There was this local artist showcased at this local theater. So they went and they're sitting down, and they're pretty much the only ones in the theater. And this movie about the relationship started playing. So she's like, what's happening here? The theater then went from empty to being filled with friends and family who slowly trickled in. The film, which was created by Austin over nearly a year, was about their 10 year love story. It had friends from different stages of their life, A choreographed dance with the dance team from UCLA that he got to do with their dogs. And then by the time the movie was over, the theater was almost completely full of people that they knew. That's from people. Here's the thing. Great story. But if you're like his buddy, and his buddy's girl hears about it, his buddy's held to a higher stand.

[Amy]

He just set the bar.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, well, Austin did this with his girl. You did my name up on a scoreboard.

[Amy]

Yeah, Yeah. I mean, I don't know how you taught that.

[Bobby Bones]

That's really good. As the movie ended, Austin then, because he walked out near the end, walked back down the aisle playing a ukulele and singing the Way I Am, a song he had performed when he first asked her to be his girlfriend a decade earlier.

[Eddie]

Guys, Austin sounds amazing.

[Bobby Bones]

Do we want to marry Austin?

[Amy]

Even the friends that maybe are already been married a while are looking at their guys like, you didn't do this.

[Bobby Bones]

That's again, what a great story, Austin. Big shout out to you, People magazine. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good, bones. So we're driving near the house, and there's a guy in a big white suv and he's stuck. He's near the house. He's obviously stuck. And he's spinning. He's by himself. And I just have on sweats. And we've been dealing with no power. We've been dealing with bouncing back and forth. We were staying over in like a studio that we use some for podcasting. And so I was like, oh, man, I gotta help this guy. And so I'm like, are you good? I knew he wasn't good. You good? And he's like, I'm stuck. I'm like, all right. So I get out, and I'm like, okay. You get on the gas. And his car. Have you seen the pictures?

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. His car was right by a tree. Or I would go and push from the back glass, like, put my hand inside the back glass of the SUV and push from the side. It was right by a tree. And I don't want to die and have that thing, like, slide.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And pinch me in. So I'm behind the car, and it's ice. And I'm like, go. Whoo. I'm trying to rock it. It's one man and one man nothing. We got close once. Go. I'm pushing. Nothing. He's like, just not moving. Caitlin's in the car. She's pregnant. She doesn't like it when I say very pregnant. She's pregnant. She's pregnant. And I said, kaylin, can you get in this guy's car?

[Amy]

Oh. So that both of you guys?

[Eddie]

Yeah. Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

And she's like, yeah, I guess. And so she's in, like, slides and sweats. And I walk her over. Obviously, I don't want her to fall on the ice. And so she gets in the car. I'm behind the car. He's kind of behind the car because there are trees, and now they want us to get smashed. We want to die. And so we're rocking it. Rock one. Well, first of all, we grabbed a bunch of. To put in the mud underneath it, try to get some kind of traction. So we did. I was like, hey, let's find. First of all, let's use your mats, because that's the first thing you do. I've been stuck many times. You. To put the mats under there, try to get some traction. That didn't work because he already dug holes from just spinning so much. And then it had gone from ice. It was starting to be the dirt. So then we got, like, some tree. We're cramming tree limbs and stuff under there just to get any. Try to get any traction with the wheels. And so we go. We're rocking. Ready, two, three, go. Caitlin goes a little scared. Not her truck. So she didn't hit it hard the first time. We're like, you gotta go. And then we're also watching to make sure no cars were coming down the road. So we didn't hit. We didn't hit them. Like, she didn't jump out there and lose control. And so we go again. We just have to get it over this lip on the road. It's ice. This lip to get on the road. 1, 2, 3. We start to get a little traction.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

We're go, go, go, go.

[Bobby Bones]

Backset didn't get it.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Dang.

[Eddie]

It's frustrating.

[Bobby Bones]

It's so frustrating. And I start to realize I'm kind of getting dirty by this. No big deal. Next time, go. Nailing it. We're pushing as hard as we can. It starts to get some lip. By this time, I can feel the mud just covering me. My face, all my body, every. I'm just covered, caked in mu. The truck catches. Whoa. Pulls out. I'm not kidding when I say this. I'm covered in mud too. The guy goes, hey, man, thanks. Can I get a selfie?

[Amy]

I didn't even know you're joking.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I didn't even know that. The guy knew me from the show. It was dark, he was stuck. And I'm like, sure, man. So I do a thumbs up. I'm covered in mud. I don't realize how much mud I'm covered in yet.

[Amy]

Funny.

[Bobby Bones]

And so he goes, thanks, man. Caitlyn gets out of. Walking back to the car. He just gets off and drives off. I don't know what I thought would happen. Like, he'd be like, hey, thanks. I really appreciate. I don't know.

[Amy]

So did he slide off?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know.

[Amy]

Oh, you didn't know? No.

[Bobby Bones]

Because as soon as I got there, I wasn't. I'm not asking him much questions. I was like, hey, what's. I said, hey, are you stuck? I knew he was stuck. He was like, yeah. I said, can I help you? And he was in the truck. Cuz at first it was just him, so we weren't talking a lot because he was in the truck as I was pushing. The second one happens, and then we're just out there. I'm cold. And we had on a pair of my.

[Amy]

I think they're literally my favorite.

[Bobby Bones]

They're literally my favorite shoes.

[Amy]

No, I knew what they were because I seen you and I love shoes.

[Bobby Bones]

And these were expensive shoes.

[Amy]

Are they ruined?

[Bobby Bones]

They're. I don't know how. They're not ruined ever. It's up on Instagram. If you go Mr. Bobby Bones on Instagram, I am covered in mud. It was in so much. So I took a shower and I had to have my wife come evaluate and be like, no, they're still. It's in your ears. And I had to dig in my ears to get it out. I ruined everything.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And I don't know. I don't think. I didn't want anything from the guy.

[Eddie]

Just felt weird.

[Bobby Bones]

But he just jumped in the car and drove off. My wife said he might have had food in his car to deliver. Like, he could have been a delivery driver because she saw a bunch of bags of food in there. Either that or he's picking up. But I would. I know.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, those shoes, man. They're done.

[Bobby Bones]

They're.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, no.

[Amy]

I mean, maybe we could. They are cake, but I'm like, maybe we could restore them.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, you know what you should do is tag the brand and be like.

[Bobby Bones]

Look, I. I'm gonna tell you, that brand does not care.

[Lunchbox]

These shoes died being a hero. And maybe they'll send you a new pair.

[Amy]

Yeah, they don't care.

[Eddie]

Bad customer service over there.

[Bobby Bones]

This is how much.

[Eddie]

Oh, my goodness. And they're.

[Bobby Bones]

It's the only shoes I had on. I wasn't planning on helping anybody.

[Amy]

Well, and you didn't think, like, you're, like, in the ice.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't think I was out there just to help.

[Eddie]

Wait, what's the reason? That's the color of that shoe.

[Amy]

That's what heroes do.

[Bobby Bones]

You know what? It wasn't about me.

[Amy]

I don't think.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you. No need to clap, but if you. If you insist. If everybody insists.

[Eddie]

Hey, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you.

[Amy]

Let me put my drink.

[Bobby Bones]

If everybody insist. Thank you. If you all are gonna stand up. Okay. If you're all gonna stand up.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you. Thank you, man. That is.

[Eddie]

I'm forcing me to get up.

[Bobby Bones]

We peer pressured her. The. I'm glad I remember taking video, though. No one would have believed me when.

[Eddie]

That video popped up. I'm like, is he sick? Like, what?

[Amy]

I felt like a septic tank blew.

[Bobby Bones]

Up on you or something. I got mudded for sure. But the guy got out, and I hope if he was delivering food, he got all his food there in time.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And everything's good. So that. That was my night. So. Yeah, look at us.

[Eddie]

Night of a hero.

[Lunchbox]

Night of a hero.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not a hero.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Don't call me that. I refuse to be called a hero.

[Lunchbox]

Tell me something good, you know, just another day.

[Bobby Bones]

Just bones. Let's go over and talk to Brittany in Virginia Beach.

[Caller/Guest]

Brittany, you're on Morning Studio.

[Eddie]

Morning.

[Caller/Guest]

I just wanted to call in and give you guys a. Tell me something good. All right, Give it to us this weekend. We're Gonna come up to Vanderbilt to my boyfriend's donating bone marrow. And the way this happened was he signed up like seven years ago on the national registry, and they found somebody that was a possible match a couple months ago, came and took his blood, and now we're flying out on Friday.

[Bobby Bones]

So seven years ago, that's how long it took for them to find, like, a match?

[Caller/Guest]

Yeah. He honestly seen a video on Reddit that the guy signed up for it and then touched his heart in some way and he's. Yeah.

[Amy]

If you don't mind me asking, how old is your husband?

[Caller/Guest]

He is 37.

[Amy]

37?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. No, you're just saying that because you think you're too old.

[Eddie]

No, no, I asked about it and I heard that I was too old to donate. Yeah, because I think you guys challenged me, like, would you do bone marrow? And I said, yeah, I would try it, but I was too old for that.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, let. Don't hang up, Britney.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, Yeah, I believe you. We talked to the bone marrow, and they said you were too old. As much as I hate to be on your side, we talk to the bone marrow.

[Eddie]

The actual.

[Lunchbox]

The bone marrow people, we talk to them.

[Amy]

Bmp.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, I have a question for you. Is there an appropriate age to donate bone marrow? Is there too old where you can't donate bone marrow? So with bone marrow donation, it's more.

[Caller/Guest]

About safety and success.

[Bobby Bones]

Most registries have an upper age limit. Typically, the cutoff is around 55 or 60 years old. That's not because older folks aren't generous. It's just that younger donors tend to lead to better outcomes for patients. If you're under that limit and healthy, you're usually good to go.

[Eddie]

Well, Eddie, I mean, good to go, according to her.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. And so this is a great story, and we love when people call and tell us these stories. And this is the year of you being serious.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I'm dead serious.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, Brittany. So what happens? You guys come here. He goes into a hospital. What happens? What do they do to him?

[Caller/Guest]

Well, the procedure is only a couple hours. We won't even be there a couple hours. But they take a needle somewhere close to the spine, and it is upper back, lower back. Sorry. And they said he'll be in some discomfort in his lower back and hip pain because that's where they sit the needle. But other than that, about two weeks recovery that they say he'll be back to normal.

[Eddie]

Man. They do your lower back, huh? Like, spinal cord area.

[Bobby Bones]

That's too much for you?

[Eddie]

No, it just sounds it sounds scary.

[Bobby Bones]

Brittany, that's really great. It's crazy to me. It took seven years.

[Amy]

I know.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

And that he's having a fly. Like, it's like.

[Bobby Bones]

And they're flying him here.

[Amy]

They'll send them wherever they need us so much.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, good word.

[Eddie]

You know, that could be the problem. It takes seven years. If I said I would donate today, dude, I'd be six years old.

[Bobby Bones]

No, you want to be six. Your math is not math right now.

[Eddie]

I'd be old. Too old for this.

[Bobby Bones]

No, you went 55 to 60 is what it says.

[Eddie]

Oh, that's what you're.

[Bobby Bones]

And that seven years probably is on the longer end.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Brendan, that's an amazing story. So here's what I want to do, because we have a relationship with Macy's, and I want to just hook you up with something here. Macy's makes it easy to find something special for every relationship and every budget. And so you and your husband, I guess he'll kind of be, what, in bed during Valentine's Day? Still recovering?

[Caller/Guest]

Probably.

[Bobby Bones]

Probably.

[Caller/Guest]

He wants to watch Super Bowls.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, he lined this up. It's like a guy. When they get snippy, snip during NCAA.

[Amy]

Tournament, so they can just lay around and watch sports.

[Bobby Bones]

So I'm gonna give you a $250 gift card, and hopefully you'll treat him to a little something at Macy's. Even get him a diamond bracelet.

[Eddie]

Oh, that'd be nice.

[Amy]

Yeah. Or treat yourself.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So, Brittany, really cool. Thank you for sharing the story. Hopefully another listener hears it and is motivated to also go and get tested. And maybe if it's not a listener, it's a show member.

[Eddie]

Maybe.

[Bobby Bones]

Maybe tell your husband we said, best to health, best of luck. And it's really cool what you're doing. Please stay on the phone. We're going to get you this gift card, okay?

[Caller/Guest]

Okay. Thank you, guys.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I know you didn't call for a gift card, but I had one here, so if you. You'll take it, I'll give it to you.

[Caller/Guest]

I super appreciate it.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Caller/Guest]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. All right, Stand by one second.

[Caller/Guest]

Appreciate it.

[Bobby Bones]

Valentine's Day will be here before you know it, and Macy's is the destination for getting everything you need for Valentine's Day. From your new look for your date night to the perfect gift for your valentine before it's too late. Experiences like date night are great, but not enough for the perfect Valentine's Day. Bring a gift from Macy's. Get to your local Macy's this Valentine's Day. Or hit up Macy's dot com. Great story. Hope you feel a little poked there, Eddie.

[Eddie]

Gosh, that's amazing.

[Bobby Bones]

That is, right? Yeah, that felt weird.

[Amy]

Yeah, a little poke. I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Know what?

[Amy]

I don't know. Hope you feel a little poke there, Eddie.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, little poke.

[Eddie]

Like, I felt that.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, hey, don't forget, if you want to make a difference, you can poke me.

[Eddie]

What is wrong?

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, She's Pervy Amy. She's turned a new leaf. Like four months ago, Pervy Amy came busting through, just like on the Biggest Loser at the end. You know, they bust through that picture. Pervy Amy came, boom, bouncing out one.

[Amy]

Of the biggest songs growing up.

[Bobby Bones]

That wasn't one of the biggest songs growing up. Okay, next. Too close. It was not one of the biggest songs growing up.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

All right. Thank you to her. Congratulation. Commissions to her for the gift card. But big shout out to her husband. A woman threw her husband a surprise birthday party at Costco because he loves Costco so much.

[Eddie]

That's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

So they had at the Costco food court.

[Amy]

So, like, he went there thinking he was just gonna shop, and then, like, his friends are there.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. He accidentally ran into his friends in the aisles. Then they had the party and they all ate pizza.

[Amy]

That's fun.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Hot dogs.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

She told people that Costco's one of his favorite places. It used to be a frequent date night spot. So somebody was to throw you a birthday party at your favorite store. What would that store be? I thought about this. I'll give you guys a second to think. I think it would just be in, like, a good gas station.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

That's where I get most of my stuff. Because I don't like to park and walk in for, like, a thing of milk. So I just go to the gas station. I like all the treats at a gas station. It's the only time I ever want Funyuns or Circus peanuts. That's the only time in my life I ever get that stuff is if I'm on a road trip. And again. Or Red Hots. When do I get those? Only on a road trip at a gas station. So like a nice big gas station and there are a few of them.

[Amy]

I mean, that's pretty legit. That does fit you perfectly.

[Bobby Bones]

Buc ee's come and go. Any of those that are, like, good quality. Yeah, you.

[Amy]

So it's not like a restaurant. It has to be like a store.

[Bobby Bones]

It can be whatever you want. There are no rules. You will not get kicked off the show. If you give us an answer we don't.

[Amy]

Like, there's a little. Like, where is there, like, a little cafe or something? Like, I love shopping at Nordstrom. And there's a cafe there. Okay, that seems lame.

[Eddie]

No, no, it's your birthday party.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a gas station.

[Amy]

I know that sounds way more fun. Like the coffee shop at Nordstrom.

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Amy]

Okay. Starbucks. No. Chick Fil A, maybe.

[Bobby Bones]

Solid.

[Amy]

So I guess now that I've talked myself into it, I'm gonna go Chick Fil A.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Amy]

So hopefully it's not a year that my birthday falls on a Sunday.

[Eddie]

Oh, that'd be closed.

[Bobby Bones]

Tell you, though, if we're doing, like, restaurants, like Chipotle. Yeah, love Chipotle. Like, everybody can have a good time at Chipotle.

[Eddie]

Both of those dining rooms, though, a little small.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. But we've rented it out. You guys. You guys treated me extra special. And you rented the whole thing.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

What kind of store, Eddie?

[Eddie]

I'm gonna go Dick's Sporting Goods.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that's a good one.

[Eddie]

Because they have, like.

[Amy]

How do you eat?

[Eddie]

Oh, I'm not worried about cater. Yeah, we'll bring the food in.

[Amy]

Oh, I thought I said my brain was going, where's their food?

[Eddie]

Order a bunch of pizzas. But, dude, they have golf simulators there, putting greens, little batting cage, like, all kinds of stuff.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, great party. Yeah, you put on all the clothes. You do all the clothes.

[Eddie]

Oh, they even have, like, basketball hoops up. Oh, you know, that's fun. That'd be cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Great party. Lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

Well, I mean, Eddie took the Crown Jewel, so I'll have to come up with something for second place here. I'll go with trampoline park because it's good for kids and it's good for adults.

[Bobby Bones]

We're all getting hurt if we go to a trampoline park and seven of us go in, only two of us are coming out with everything still working.

[Lunchbox]

Because it's cool. Because they have a basketball court that is on a trampoline. They have dodgeball, and they just. If you want to jump casually, you can jump on the trampoline.

[Eddie]

So how many foam pits?

[Lunchbox]

The foam.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Oh, no.

[Lunchbox]

And then they have the one where it's like a tower and you go up and you jump onto a big old air, like, mattress. That is so fun. So I'm going trampoline park.

[Bobby Bones]

I've never done the basketball at a trampoline park.

[Lunchbox]

So cool.

[Eddie]

Dude, it's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

How do you not hit your head on the rim?

[Eddie]

Oh, it's padded.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Some people do hit their heads, but it's really padded.

[Bobby Bones]

The rims padded. So you're not gonna break your neck or anything. Can you dunk?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, dude.

[Eddie]

We can.

[Bobby Bones]

Do adults go in and just dominate kids?

[Eddie]

Yeah, but it's frowned upon.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, they usually have referees where the adults have to play and then they sit down and then they have kids playing. Heck, sometimes they. And it's a basketball court and soccer at the same time. So they have soccer goals.

[Bobby Bones]

That feels dangerous.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

There are times where there's basketball going on and soccer at the same time, and it is awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

Soccer feels weird because in soccer you don't need to get up high. In basketball, you can't get up high normally because we can't jump. And that allows you to do that. Soccer is that fun on a trampoline?

[Bailey Zimmerman]

I don't know.

[Lunchbox]

The kids do it. I know. I've never played this. The kids like it just because they like soccer, but they have kids dunking over them as they're trying to shoot a soccer ball.

[Bobby Bones]

That's super fun, though, that. She did that at Costco. I saw once where someone set their husband up at a grocery store and just ran into all its friends. Do you guys remember that video I played? But she did this at Costco. And they had in the food court. So big shout out to her. Name's Amy Putnam. That's fine, Bones. It's time for the good news with Amy.

[Amy]

So Northville, New Jersey, there's a basketball game going on, and a 14 year old boy that was on the court suddenly fell and went unconscious. A nurse was in the stands. She runs down there. The coach also comes over. They use their CPR training to trade off doing CPR on him. They get the defibrillator and boom, he comes back to life. He didn't even realize really what had happened. So he was like, can I get back in the game?

[Eddie]

No, man, you're done.

[Amy]

He was unconscious and. But they. They brought him back to life so efficiently that he was ready to play.

[Bobby Bones]

What if they brought him back and he was super back to life?

[Eddie]

Oh, he's better.

[Bobby Bones]

Like knocked out, punching, you know, fell?

[Amy]

[Bobby Bones]

I wonder if you do know when you woke up what happened, because he's like, he didn't know what happened. I wonder if you do go out, what you remember beforehand.

[Eddie]

You've never been Passed out?

[Amy]

No. Have you?

[Bobby Bones]

Like, I've been. I've been under, like, anesthesia. Yeah.

[Eddie]

I feel like it's different, but I.

[Bobby Bones]

Don'T even remember much except them putting the mask on me a couple times. But even.

[Amy]

It's true. Like, even when you come out of that stuff, you're like, what just happened?

[Lunchbox]

No, I'm.

[Amy]

Well, yeah, you're a little groggy, but I pee myself. It's like, no time passed, though.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, well, big shout out to them for acting quick.

[Amy]

Yeah. So the nurse was Joan Bowen and the coach was Mike Schumann.

[Bobby Bones]

And if there's nobody around that is super trained. And there is one of those machines, Eddie says if you go to it, it tells you how to do it.

[Eddie]

Yeah. There's a voice that says, turn machine on and then hit button now. But it also. It detects a heartbeat. Like, so. If there is a heartbeat, it says, do not push button. Take, you know, attachments off. So it tells you, too, if they don't need it.

[Bobby Bones]

I think I still do it anyway.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Might be wrong here. Okay, Good story. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good. Wake up, wake up in the morning, You through? M's riding his wigs. Next bit now.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Okay. We didn't do very good, but that's fun. Yeah, we had a good time there, Bones. All right, let's look at some voicemails.

[Caller/Guest]

Number one, I love Amy so much, but she spoiled Landman. I'm in season one. She just reviewed season two, and she spoiled something. I don't even know if I should say, because I don't want anyone else to.

[Amy]

To spoil it, but when she was.

[Caller/Guest]

Talking about the wife. Sorry, Amy.

[Bailey Zimmerman]

Bye.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't watch Landman, so I don't know if Amy has spoiled anything, but I thank you for also not saying what it is. So I'm gonna have us not say anything about it until I investigate this further, because sometimes when talking about if we spoil the show, we then spoil the show accidentally by talking about if we spoiled the show. So I'm gonna have everybody hold back. We're going to investigate this. We're going to send this up to New York. We got some officials in the booth, the review team. We're going to have them look at it. But thank you for that call, and thank you for not spoiling. Okay, number two, a couple of questions.

[Lunchbox]

One, we need to update on Amy.

[Caller/Guest]

Who, what coach did she find to.

[Bobby Bones]

Be the hottest, and what's going on with Eddie's chickens.

[Eddie]

All righty.

[Bobby Bones]

Y' all take care. Chickens?

[Eddie]

Like my smoking chicken?

[Bobby Bones]

You haven't bought live chickens, have you?

[Eddie]

No, no. That'd be cool. Kind of raised chickens.

[Bobby Bones]

No, don't do that, because you don't even do the smoking chick update.

[Eddie]

Not much going on, however. Did you see that there's a whole lawsuit with Costco and chickens?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, the rotisserie lawsuit. But that has nothing to do with you.

[Eddie]

It could be. I can save the day with Smoking Hot Chicken.

[Bobby Bones]

No, they're asking if you've done anything about this or if you've just sat back and done nothing.

[Eddie]

Done nothing.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Next up.

[Caller/Guest]

Hey, Bobby, this is Kathy. I'm in Florida. I'm listening to your podcast. I'm listening to you talk to Amy son and it's so amazing you're going to be such a good dad. Your questions are great and you can relate to him so well. That's all I wanted to say. Thanks. Have a great day.

[Bobby Bones]

I appreciate that. But I think that's more of I'm a child and can talk to a child more so than I'm a dad and will be a great dad. So. But if you missed it, Amy's son was on Tuesday's Part two podcast. So you can go back and hear that. All right, give me one more.

[Caller/Guest]

Hey Bobby, I think you slipped up and revealed that you're having twins. I rebound it and it said if these babies don't kick, I'll be good. You said babies plural. German twins. I hope it's a boy and a girl.

[Bobby Bones]

I have not slipped up. So I'll say that I have not slept up ever, one time, even partially. Now, have I said things possibly to make the scent go everywhere? There's a shot of that. But I haven't slipped up. So I appreciate you listening. I appreciate you hearing that. But for the record, I have not slipped up and felt like I needed to correct or got off the air. I'm like, oh, I shouldn't have said that. If I've said anything, it's been with purpose or it's been you don't really plant eggs kind of plant seeds. But it's been possibly Easter eggy. But I appreciate that. Hey, don't forget, you guys that are listening on the podcast, you can call at any point and leave a voicemail if we're not live. 877-77-Bobby, very easy. 87777 b o b b y. Leave a voicemail there. Bobby Bone Show Story of the day.

[Lunchbox]

This story comes to us from Charlottesville, Virginia. A 45 year old man went to Bojangles, got some chicken and noticed his order was wrong and he was upset. He told him, guys, I come here all the time and every time it seems you mess up my order. But don't worry, you're never going to mess it up again because I'm going to blow this place up when I come back. And so they were able to track him down because of his credit card.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh yeah, they had him. He didn't pay cash. Because you pay cash, you can blow something up.

[Eddie]

You could.

[Bobby Bones]

That's the rule. If you pay Cash, they don't care. They can't track you. If they always mess up his order, why does he keep going back?

[Amy]

Exactly?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. After two. After two. I think I'm done.

[Amy]

The first part of his bonehead.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, there you go.

[Lunchbox]

I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead. Story of the day, Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's go over and talk to Jacob, who lives in Florida. Jacob, you're on the show. What's up, man?

[Caller/Guest]

Morning, studio.

[Bobby Bones]

Morning.

[Caller/Guest]

So I'm a podcast listener, and I was heard you talking about. He was watching YouTube and you got it down pat. Go ahead and have that diaper ready, because I did not do that. And I was changing my son's diaper, and I turned around to go get the clean one. When I turned back around, he's just peeing right on his face. And I freaked out. Didn't know what to do on. My son's mom at the time was just yelling at me, get the diaper. Get the diaper. So I just grabbed another diaper, just covered it up. So there's mess everywhere. There was pee all in his little crib thing with the changes label on it. It was bad.

[Bobby Bones]

I bet you those stories are pretty common. Meaning the first couple times, first couple months, there's probably just a lot of disasters that happen. And I know I was practicing on a doll. Listeners, you don't have to tell me that's nothing. Wait till it's alive. I hear you.

[Eddie]

Well, yeah, no kidding.

[Bobby Bones]

I fully hear you. But if I don't even know how to do it on a doll, I'm going to know how to do it on a kicking human. So everyone's like, that's nothing, man. That's not real practice on a real baby. Where am I going to get one of those? Whose baby am I going to go borrow and change their diaper? I'm not. I'm doing the best I can over here, so. Yeah, Jacob, I appreciate that. I bet you that's happening with a lot of parents. But listen, I'm swaddling, I'm diapering. It's a doll, but it's better than nothing. And I don't want to do. I don't want to borrow anybody's baby in case someone wants to drop one off up here. I'm good. All right, Jacob. Appreciate that, buddy. Have a great day.

[Caller/Guest]

Thank you, too.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, see you later. Hey, thanks for hanging out with us on the show. We appreciate you guys being here. We'll see you guys tomorrow.

[Lunchbox]

All right.
