[Amy]

Oh, my goodness.

[Gilbert King]

Wow, guy. I didn't know what lip balm was, but he won the whole thing. Look at this guy. There he is. Starts off. Starts off the morning with a win. It's the anonymous inbox. Anonymous inbox. There's a question to be had. Send it into the mailbag. Hello, Bobby Bones. My husband and I are pregnant with our third child. We were looking to get a nanny to help out. I plan on returning to work. A bit uncomfortable having another woman in the house, though, to be honest. Especially someone younger and more attractive than me. I trust my husband. I just don't want to invite that risk into my home. When we were interviewing candidates, I rejected two of the nannies, despite them being qualified in everything we were looking for. My husband told me he doesn't want to pick anyone, that we aren't both comfortable with our children around, But I'm rejecting them based on their age and attractiveness, and that's sexist. I agree with my husband that if I was applying for a job and I got turned down for my age or level of attractiveness or being a woman, it'd be upsetting. And I feel like there should be an exception, though, if someone's in our house and it makes me uncomfortable because they're younger and prettier, in his words, it shows that I should keep saying sexist, but that I'm sexist when I am the employer or the one in power. I don't know. Bobby, do you have any advice on our situation? Selective, Sally. Sexist is a weird term because you're gonna hire a woman, it sounds like. So that would just be based completely on her sex. Now, you could be ageist. You'd be prettiest. Yeah, I wish I was prettiest. That's. That feels like a different. That's like the pretty. Yeah, that is an unfortunate place. I can't really help and fix your insecurity, because you have that, and I'm sorry you have that. We all have our versions of this type of insecurity. I think you've also done the thing of putting yourself in their shoes, and that would suck if you didn't get a job because you happen to look a certain way or be a certain age if you were qualified. Like, yeah, that would suck in the end. If you're not comfortable with a person, though, as much as it Pains me to say this, it's not going to be healthy for everybody in the house. Like Macro. I would really try to figure out why you feel this way towards whomever she is. If she's younger and prettier and your husband, you know, if there's some. And I'm not saying this is the case and it probably isn't some infidelity in the past, I, I get it. If there's infidelity with your parents back in the day, I get it. Like a lot of these feelings of insecurity are rooted in things sometimes that we cannot even identify. So what I would encourage you to do, and this is a long term thing, this is not going to help the process right now is figure out why you feel this way. Because yeah, it's a bit unfair that someone could be fully qualified, be everything that you want, but they're young and pretty. So you. Because it'd be unfair if they were old and ugly and you cut them. That sucked too. Yeah, so.

[Lunchbox]

But there's not a fear attached to that.

[Gilbert King]

No, but I'm just saying without the fear, in a vacuum, it sucks if someone doesn't get a job because of age and looks, not because of their qualified, regardless of what those combinations are. So that sucks. But I think what you can do is try to figure out why you feel this way. And I would just go through and find somebody you're comfortable with. Now, this nanny's probably not going to last forever. They never do. And this will probably help you with the next time you hire a nanny. This time it ain't gonna help. I would say don't get Hottie McCotterson right now because it ain't gonna be good for the whole family. The whole vibe of the whole family. And that sucks to say, but fix yourself so then you can not hold other people back. That would be my advice there because that would be annoying.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. I do think though it is, it's hard to find someone that meshes well with your family and is gonna be great for your kids. And I hear you, golly to be in every way where, yeah, this insecurity is holding you back from someone that genuinely could be the best fit for your family.

[Gilbert King]

I understand.

[Lunchbox]

I'm going to need you to show up every day looking your worst.

[Gilbert King]

Can you put on 20? Can you do a couple fake moles right on your neck?

[Lunchbox]

Bag over your head?

[Gilbert King]

I don't like that. But I don't have to like it to hopefully guide you to a place where you can make a better decision, a healthier decision for everyone later, because you're not going to make that healthy decision now. And it's going to lead to unhealthy things within that, the dynamic of the family. So hire someone you guys are both comfortable with. Don't force yourself to do something that makes you uncomfortable, even if it's something like hire somebody hot and young. But you got to figure out why you feel this way. Like, what has led you here. Because you may not know, or you do may. But you shouldn't punish somebody for this. But first, let's work on you. Then let's work on it.

[Lunchbox]

Sounds like a plan.

[Gilbert King]

It's a hard plan. It requires work. And maybe you find Meemaw and Annie, and she's awesome, but then she ain't gonna live very long. You know what I mean? Yeah. All right. There you go. Close it up. Lunchbox is asked for a minute to make a confession. I don't know what it is, so over to you.

[Bobby]

Last week, I came in here and I told you guys my hangy Bangy was inflamed.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, no. It's the sickness confessions that drive us crazy.

[Amy]

Whoa.

[Bobby]

I didn't say it was a sickness.

[Gilbert King]

Okay. Is it a sickness?

[Bobby]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, no.

[Amy]

It's terrible.

[Gilbert King]

By the way, the Hangy Bangy for those that are new. It's that. That part's funny. It's that thing that hangs in your throat, a little ball who calls out the Hangy Bangy. And he'll come in and be like, it's okay, guys. It's just my Hangy Bangy that's inflamed. And it's usually, like, allergies.

[Bobby]

Yes. And I assumed it was allergies as my throat hurt. The Hangy Bangy man. It went. It's been a week over a week, and it was still hurting. I was not able to eat. I was just on smoothies and yogurt, and I don't know what was wrong with me. So I went and got tested. Great news, guys. Not strep throat.

[Gilbert King]

That's not a confession.

[Bobby]

Bad news. I have something that I did not know men could get.

[Gilbert King]

Chlamydia. You have chlamydia?

[Lunchbox]

Wait, what? Men can get that, right?

[Bobby]

I. I don't know. I don't know.

[Lunchbox]

It's an std. Any.

[Amy]

Oh, you have a urinary tract infection.

[Lunchbox]

No one can get this, too.

[Bobby]

No, no. This I had no idea men could get.

[Lunchbox]

Why would he think men could get this? Like, what could it be?

[Gilbert King]

Like, I'm not even sure I'M gonna kick a chlamydia. I'll be honest with you. I don't know enough about even what chlamydia is. I'll look it up.

[Lunchbox]

All STDs are all.

[Amy]

Nah, there's one that only women get.

[Bobby]

What?

[Amy]

I don't know what it's called.

[Lunchbox]

Are y'all thinking hpv?

[Amy]

That one.

[Gilbert King]

That's it.

[Lunchbox]

No guys can have that.

[Bobby]

Oh, it's not that.

[Gilbert King]

Okay. That's not what you have lunch. Listen to this. There are no STDs exclusive to females.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

That's because it's sexually transmitted.

[Gilbert King]

No, I hear you. I just.

[Amy]

That makes sense.

[Gilbert King]

I just felt. You have syphilis.

[Bobby]

No.

[Gilbert King]

Gonorrhea?

[Bobby]

No.

[Lunchbox]

But, oh, no, he didn't know men could get it.

[Gilbert King]

Herpes.

[Bobby]

No, I knew I can get that.

[Gilbert King]

Aids?

[Bobby]

No, I knew I could get that.

[Gilbert King]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

That's all I have in my breast cancer.

[Gilbert King]

But that's. But his hangy bang. He's not going to hurt from that.

[Lunchbox]

Breast cancer of the hangy bangy.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, I was just doing STDs.

[Lunchbox]

I know. I was trying to think. What could he think that only women could get? Which, by the way, men can get that breast cancer. So a heads up on that.

[Gilbert King]

But did you. Did you Google to see if men can.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yeast infection.

[Bobby]

I have a yeast infection in my mouth. In my throat.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, my gosh.

[Amy]

This is disgusting.

[Gilbert King]

This is the greatest segment ever of my life.

[Bobby]

I have a yeast infection in my throat and in my mouth.

[Gilbert King]

Yes. This is hilarious.

[Lunchbox]

I guessed it. What have you been doing?

[Gilbert King]

Eating a lot of bread. What's happening?

[Bobby]

Oh, my gosh.

[Lunchbox]

Well, guys, it's.

[Gilbert King]

I mean, I would have lost. I would have lost money on that if. Can a guy get yeast infection? Nope.

[Bobby]

Exactly what I said.

[Gilbert King]

How much you want to bet? How much you got? I lost it all.

[Lunchbox]

Does he just, like, swallow some Vagisil or what?

[Amy]

Yes, I do.

[Gilbert King]

Have you been badger selling your Hangy Bangy?

[Bobby]

No, I have lidocaine.

[Lunchbox]

Okay. I think it's what it's called numbing.

[Bobby]

And it's really thick. And you put it in your mouth and you gargle. Spit it out. And then there's another medicine. It's like orange. I don't know the name of it. And I had to put it in my mouth.

[Gilbert King]

That just seal is how you say that. Gargle it.

[Bobby]

And I have to do this four times a day. And I spit it out.

[Gilbert King]

A man can get a yeast infection in his throat. Also known long name there. Due to a Weakened immune system, antibiotic use, diabetes, or the use of inhaled. I don't know what that is either. Which can disrupt the natural balance of microorganisms in the mouth. Whoa.

[Lunchbox]

I also don't. I would say the doctor probably advised you to stay away from.

[Gilbert King]

Is there like, a manlier version?

[Lunchbox]

Sugary smoothies and sugary yogurts.

[Amy]

That's all he was drinking.

[Lunchbox]

You're only making the candida the overgrowth worse.

[Bobby]

I don't think you understand. I couldn't eat, like, it hurts so bad.

[Gilbert King]

Because your yeast hurt?

[Bobby]

Yes, the yeast was killing. I mean, it was like when I couldn't figure out what it was, I had my wife look in there and she goes, oh, yeah. Did you just eat, like, cottage cheese? And I was like, no. And she said, well, there's a lot of white stuff.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, thrush.

[Gilbert King]

That's exactly what it is. Yep.

[Bobby]

So that's what I had to do is I'm doing a thrush and it's just. It's really bad, man.

[Gilbert King]

Have you had to, like, check your fallopian tubes or anything?

[Bobby]

No, I don't have those.

[Amy]

Did you get a pap smear?

[Gilbert King]

I wish.

[Bobby]

I don't have that. That's what I'm saying. And I told the doctor, I said, man, I didn't know dudes could get that. I thought that was only a woman thing.

[Gilbert King]

I'm surprised they don't have a man version of it.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby]

Instead of calling it a yeast infection.

[Gilbert King]

Even something like a yeast infection, you know, just like a little switch up.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, they don't switch up. All the other things we can all.

[Gilbert King]

Mutually have, but a yeast infection is not the official term for. Has like a medical term like the.

[Lunchbox]

Candida or the thrush. Are you talking about for his throat or his.

[Gilbert King]

It's known as candida diasis.

[Bobby]

I'm telling you, it. I don't want to wish that on anybody to get yeast in their throat because it is unbearable.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. I don't wish it on you to get it elsewhere either.

[Amy]

Is it contagious?

[Bobby]

No.

[Gilbert King]

Are you sure?

[Bobby]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

We told you it was something more than actually one of us was like, I think he's got a vaginal issue.

[Amy]

Somebody said that about lunchbox.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, guys, poor hygiene contribute.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, yeah.

[Amy]

Well, that makes sense.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, yes, it can be contagious. It is a fungal infection caused by the candida yeast, which can spread from person to person through either direct contact, which he is near us.

[Bobby]

No, I'm not direct contact.

[Gilbert King]

I'm not wearing objects with an Affected person doing it, probably not washing your water bottle ever. Or breastfeeding everyone. It's important to note that not everyone who. Not everyone who comes into contact with someone with thrust will develop an infection. But it can if you're near them.

[Bobby]

Oh, man.

[Gilbert King]

All right, well, this is the day. Lunchbox got a yeast infection. Mark it down on the calendar is one of my favorite days and I.

[Bobby]

Didn'T want to tell you.

[Amy]

Yeah, thanks for telling us.

[Gilbert King]

I wish you wouldn't. It's time for the good news with producer Eddie. Tell me something good.

[Amy]

It was a freezing cold day in Baldwinsville, New York, and seven year old Makai, he's riding his bike along a river. He says, oh, that looks cool. Look how cold that river is. And he puts his bike down and sits by the river. Well, he starts slipping, falls in the freezing river. Luckily, there's a guy named Ed. He's walking his dog. He says, oh, my gosh, what is that? He goes, stop, stop. I'll help, I'll help. We calls 911. First things, thankfully. Then he tries to get a stick and helps Makai can't do it, so he tries the bike. He's like, well, I don't know. Grab onto the wheel of the bike.

[Gilbert King]

He puts the bike in the water.

[Amy]

Yes. And they're trying everything. Finally, Ed's like, you know what? I'm jumping in. Oh, right. In time, the first responders show up. Luckily, Ed did not have to jump in. The first responders, they started rescuing and Ed helped and they rescued the boy.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah. Good thing Ed was there to see that.

[Lunchbox]

He's like, I was just about to jump.

[Gilbert King]

I felt the same way, but I don't want to do that.

[Amy]

I don't want to take his jacket off. He's like, I'm doing this.

[Gilbert King]

I'm sure, I'm sure it doesn't matter. Yeah. The kid saved. He. Ed saw it. He did reacted. The kid is safe. I like that.

[Bobby]

Almost jumped in. Just like Eddie almost gave a kidney.

[Gilbert King]

I don't want to say very relatable.

[Amy]

It was close, guys.

[Gilbert King]

I wanted to make this about something good. They've chosen to take it a different direction. I mean, Ed did see the kid and go into action.

[Amy]

Yeah, he did.

[Gilbert King]

I'm sure he would have jumped in. Yes.

[Amy]

Even Makai's mom saying, Ed is a hero. So let's go.

[Gilbert King]

I think Ed made a great decision and saved the kid's life by seeing him acting, going towards him. Probably like keep him keeping him focused on. Yes.

[Amy]

And who knows if Ed would have jumped in the freezing water. He could have gotten hurt too, right?

[Gilbert King]

Oh, for sure. Yeah. But for sure. But I think. It doesn't matter what I think, dude. It doesn't matter. I just love this story. We're gonna leave it at that. This is Tell me something good. And that's what it's all about. That was Tell me something good. We love the good news and positivity, but every once in a while we wanna tell you something about us. It's called Tell me something lame. Tell me something lame. Just something that kinda sucks. I'll give you mine. Stanley is our bulldog and he had a little issue and all of a sudden these knots started to develop on his sides. They look like when you play connect four or checkers that size. He had like 20 of them all over his body. Big like boil type things. And then they all popped in his pus everywhere. And he was in such pain. We can't. We now know where it came from. It was somebody we had hired to do something with the dog. It was an accident, but it felt terrible for him. We were like his body was breaking out into checkers under his skin. Awful.

[Lunchbox]

Terrible.

[Gilbert King]

It was. Yes. He's pretty good. It looks like though now he's been shot a bunch of times from just like dude, the dude, he's just one thing after another.

[Bobby]

Tell me something lame.

[Gilbert King]

I mean, lay me up.

[Lunchbox]

Well, somehow my cat got out onto my screened in porch and spent the night out there, which luckily she's safe because it's screened in. She would not survive in the wild. But I guess she decided she knew you needed to use the bathroom. There's no litter box out there. And she had nowhere else to go. So she peed on my couch. That's out there.

[Gilbert King]

Oh no, that's annoying.

[Lunchbox]

And cat pee, let me tell you, it. There's a. It's a different odor. It's not good. You can try to get it out. Like I'm probably gonna have to get it professionally cleaned and that's just not what I really want. I want to do also.

[Gilbert King]

No, no. Speaking of that, odors and stuff. For those that don't know and didn't hear the show this morning, Lunchbox admitted to us he has a yeast infection in his. In his throat?

[Bobby]

Yeah.

[Amy]

In his mouth.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, in his mouth. So that reminds me, I just want to remind our listeners. Yeah, he has a yeast infection in his mouth.

[Lunchbox]

The weather's heating up, the cat smells worse. And I wonder for Lunchbox, as it gets hot out, does his Throat.

[Gilbert King]

His yeast infections. Hangy. Banging. Tell me something, Lame Lunchbox.

[Bobby]

Yeah. I was outside in the backyard playing with the kids, and we came inside, and I hear. And I thought, oh, the toilet's running. So I go downstairs and I step in water, and there's no toilet running. Hot water heater busted.

[Amy]

Oh, that's terrible.

[Bobby]

You want to hear me walking through the water in my house?

[Lunchbox]

What?

[Gilbert King]

Dang, that's a lot of water.

[Bobby]

It was, like, three quarters of an inch all throughout the downstairs. And we were only outside for an hour. An hour.

[Gilbert King]

Guys, did you know where to go? Shut it off immediately.

[Bobby]

Yes. And then I had to. You know what I did? Two and a half hours, I was on my hands and knees with towels, sopping up water and wringing it out. Sopping up water and wringing it out.

[Gilbert King]

Still, I wonder if it was enough to keep the damage from happening.

[Bobby]

Oh, no.

[Gilbert King]

Really?

[Bobby]

The floors are gone.

[Lunchbox]

What?

[Bobby]

The Sheetrock is gone.

[Amy]

Dude, you win this game.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, it's been a bad day. First of all, he has a yeast infection in his throat.

[Amy]

That's bad.

[Gilbert King]

He tells us earlier this morning, Mr. Yeast. We call him and then, what's up?

[Bobby]

No, we don't. We call him.

[Gilbert King]

Well, you told him no, you have a yeast infection.

[Bobby]

Yeah, but I'm not Mr. Yeast.

[Amy]

Mr. Yeast.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah. Yeasty 5000. And then this happens, which is possibly even worse. I'm sorry to hear that, man.

[Bobby]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

Tell me something lame Eddie.

[Amy]

My son got Wally Pipped, you know. Can you explain that for everyone who Wally Pipp was?

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, Wally Pipp played first base for the Yankees, and he got hurt. And then Lou Gehrig came in, and usually don't lose a job because you get hurt, but Lou Gehrig was so good, he kept the job forever.

[Amy]

So my son started on this basketball team. He was a starter, and then they went for spring break to the beach. When he got back, he lost his starting job.

[Gilbert King]

Oh.

[Amy]

Oh, it's crazy. Now he's got to fight back to get that starting job, and he's good. But when he was gone, during spring break, they had some practices and a game, and he got Wally Pipped. I felt so bad for my son. I had to explain to him who Wally Pipp was.

[Gilbert King]

Never leave. Don't. Never take a vacation. Never take a break. Yeah. Get him unhealthy like that. That's how I'm here. That's why I'm here. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Go ahead. Tell me something lame Morgan. You have one. Yeah.

[Morgan]

So I was at a restaurant with some friends and they messed up my salad, which was super bummer, but the guy gave me a free cake for it, so that was pretty cool.

[Lunchbox]

Lame or awesome?

[Amy]

I don't know.

[Gilbert King]

It was.

[Morgan]

I mean, it's not very exciting. It's not very exciting story, but it was cool that I got a free cake just because they messed up my salad.

[Amy]

Where's the lame part?

[Lunchbox]

Messing up?

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, it's just lame.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Matt]

Tariff whiplash is real, folks. And rapidly changing economic policies, they affect all of us to one degree or another. Trump 1.0. So that was more tariff talk. Now we are experiencing the widespread tariff action. Totally scattershot, totally random. The theory, Matt, I think, is that we're trading short term pain for long term gain. That's the tariff theory at least. But I have a hard time envisioning the long game rosy outcomes if these policy priorities kind of continue.

[Jeremy Scott]

Something unexpected happened after Jeremy Scott confessed to killing Michelle Schofield in Bone Valley Season one.

[Gilbert King]

I just knew him as a kid.

[Jeremy Scott]

Long, silent voices from his past came.

[Gilbert King]

Forward and he was just staring at me.

[Jeremy Scott]

And they had secrets of their own to share.

[Gilbert King]

Gilbert King I'm the son of Jeremy Lynn Scott.

[Jeremy Scott]

I was no longer just telling the story. I was part of it.

[Gilbert King]

Every time I hear about my dad is, oh, he's a killer. He's just straight evil.

[Jeremy Scott]

I was becoming the bridge between a killer and the son he'd never known.

[Gilbert King]

If the cops and everything would have done their job properly, my dad would have been in jail. I would have never existed.

[Jeremy Scott]

I never expected to find myself in this place. Now I need to tell you how I got here.

[Gilbert King]

At the end of the day, I'm literally a son of a killer.

[Jeremy Scott]

[Gilbert King]

I have two of these. What would you do if this happened to you? Number one, this went viral on TikTok. She fell asleep and her hair was over the plane and the guy behind her braided her hair. Okay, okay. This is from Real Dot. Danny B. Here you go. To the man that braided my hair while I was sleep on the plane. I need you to come forth immediately. I remember I was sleep the entire flight.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Gilbert King]

My day started at 2:30 that morning. I hear. And when I wake up, it's like literally right in my ear. That's where I found the braid, mind you. I said who was taking pictures? It wasn't until I got to my Airbnb. That's when it dawned on me. Braided my hair while I was sleep on the plane. One. How creepy is this? One to ten.

[Lunchbox]

Hold on.

[Bobby]

It's not as creepy as you think because she. No, no. She had the audacity to throw her hair over the seat. That's rude.

[Gilbert King]

I don't know that it was all of her hair.

[Lunchbox]

It could have been something.

[Gilbert King]

She could have fallen asleep. Yeah, we're assuming that she was just like, take all my hair, sucker. It's creepy to braid somebody's hair. You don't know without them knowing it.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Like, what kind of a person is like into like, oh, I can't wait to just touch.

[Gilbert King]

And they said it was a man.

[Amy]

That's.

[Gilbert King]

That's creepier.

[Jeremy Scott]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

If it's like an eight year old girl who doesn't know better. She has her parents.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah. You wake up and you're like, what the heck? I was like, okay, if it's a dude, Morgan, if you're on a plane and you wake up and your hair's braided and some dudes braided your hair.

[Morgan]

Yeah. Turn around. It'd be like a seven. There's creepier things even that could happen. But that's pretty high up there.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Like, if they were to just like brush it and caress it, that would be creepier than the braid.

[Gilbert King]

No way.

[Bobby]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

Braid takes more time.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, but braid is like, maybe they're just fidgeting and being bored if they're like brushing it and combing it.

[Gilbert King]

If you say it like that. What if I said braiding it and. Okay. So creepy meter. I go eight and a half.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I go eight.

[Gilbert King]

Why does she want that guy to come forward, though? Yeah, that's weird. She's gonna shame. If it's me, I ain't coming forward. There's nothing positive coming from that. Here's another one. A Pennsylvania woman accidentally donates a jacket to charity, and there was a $2.5 million winning lottery ticket inside the jacket. So here's a clip explaining what happened. Her name is Mildred Simona Riluto, and she said she bought the ticket at a grocery store last May.

[Bobby]

Two weeks later, she found, hey, I.

[Gilbert King]

Won, but where's the ticket? That's when she remembered she had put.

[Bobby]

It inside a jacket that she donated.

[Gilbert King]

To Vietnam Veterans of America.

[Lunchbox]

I was stupefied.

[Gilbert King]

I was. There's no words for was, like, beyond expression.

[Lunchbox]

How can I get it back?

[Gilbert King]

The organization donates clothing around the world, so that jacket could be anywhere. It expires on May 8th. Oh, no, they don't have the ticket back.

[Amy]

That's not good.

[Gilbert King]

This isn't the story where they go, they found the ticket and she got it back.

[Amy]

So, yeah, this is an easy answer.

[Gilbert King]

That's from six ABC Action News on Tick Tock. Amy, your thoughts?

[Lunchbox]

Well, so if I end up with the jacket, I give it to her. I mean, and I know about it. I give it to her.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, if you find a jacket.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, because also, when I go to turn it in, aren't they gonna be like, oh, this is the. Am I gonna be able to turn it in? Because I'm not the one that bought it.

[Gilbert King]

If they didn't. You didn't sign it, then. If she didn't write lunchbox. Isn't that what it is?

[Bobby]

Well, now that this has made the news, they. I don't know. Because you didn't steal the ticket.

[Amy]

No.

[Gilbert King]

Right.

[Lunchbox]

You didn't.

[Gilbert King]

They didn't go in.

[Lunchbox]

But I just think, like, she may. She doesn't have to, but she might give you a little something, and you're going to ultimately feel better knowing that you gave it back to her.

[Bobby]

Well, here's the truth. I mean, this lady looks pretty old.

[Gilbert King]

Okay, give us the truth.

[Bobby]

She doesn't need the two. I mean, if she got the 2.5 million, she wouldn't be able to use it all.

[Lunchbox]

Sure, she could use it with kids.

[Gilbert King]

Or grandkids if they're struggling.

[Bobby]

I'm keeping it. So I'm gonna do my research with a lawyer and find out, like, if I go cash this in, am I gonna get in Trouble? Cause I didn't steal it.

[Gilbert King]

You did buy the jacket. It was in the jacket. Anything else in the jacket? A book, a note? Any of that is yours if you buy the jacket.

[Lunchbox]

So can you just go halvesies?

[Gilbert King]

Well, what I would probably do is make a call from an untraceable number, a burner phone, see, try to find her and be like, hey, I actually have the ticket. And legally, I don't have to give it back to you. I don't want you to not have it. But if I give it back to you, can we put in contract in writing that we're going to split the ticket? Like, that would be, like, something that I would.

[Amy]

That's risky, though. Oh, you don't know what she's going to say.

[Gilbert King]

You don't. You have a burner phone. She's not going to track you down.

[Amy]

That's a good point. And you have the ticket.

[Bobby]

Yeah.

[Amy]

So you're in control.

[Gilbert King]

And I think that legally. Because again, there's nothing that happened. Nothing illegal happened, nothing.

[Amy]

But this news story did say that these jackets go all over the world.

[Bobby]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

It could have been bought by anybody.

[Amy]

So, like, say I'm in Indonesia.

[Gilbert King]

You may not. Well, I would say America. If you get, like, an Iowa ticket or a Pennsylvania ticket and you're in Indonesia, you don't know if that is right.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Gilbert King]

But I think the odds, too, are the person never saw this news story and probably just gets a ticket and throws it away.

[Bobby]

Or the person that is taking the donations just cleans out the pockets, tosses it in the trash, and it's gone. Oh, but, man, there is no way. Oh, my.

[Amy]

This lady needs to get on, like, worldwide news. She needs to go to every news outlet and be like, I'm looking for this ticket.

[Gilbert King]

It's funny how old people talk, Amy.

[Bobby]

Yes.

[Gilbert King]

Because Eddie's like, they need to go get on the news with Ted Koppel. And it's like, no. You try to go viral on all.

[Amy]

Social media on the World Wide Web. Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

Well, I wouldn't even call it the World Wide Web.

[Lunchbox]

So when you say old people, you mean Eddie.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby]

Also, what does this teach you?

[Gilbert King]

He's like, I take around a VHS and show Everybody in their VCR what my story was.

[Amy]

Are they gonna see my TikTok, though, in Indonesia?

[Gilbert King]

But if it goes. You need it to go viral enough. But it's probably not going to be in Indonesia.

[Amy]

Okay. Oh, man, this is sad.

[Bobby]

That's what happens when you donate, man.

[Gilbert King]

No, it's what happens when you don't pay attention. Just generally speaking. What would you do? If I got the jacket, I probably throw the ticket away. If I'm being honest. Without knowing if as my jacket, I. I would think this is not a winner. So I'd take it away.

[Amy]

But you know it. So what would you do?

[Gilbert King]

Give it back.

[Lunchbox]

No. Yeah. Yeah. Or you said you're gonna call.

[Gilbert King]

I would just. I would present a middle scenario where we both win.

[Lunchbox]

Yep. Because in a way, it's like the universe is giving you the gift. Like, you didn't ask for this. It came to you.

[Gilbert King]

If it gave you a gift, the gift is to be kept.

[Amy]

That is disrespectful if you don't take that gift.

[Gilbert King]

You think the universe is gonna keep giving you gifts if you keep taking them back?

[Bobby]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

No, of course not.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, now I'm torn.

[Gilbert King]

Yes. Morgan claims to have seen a major A lister out in the wild. Thing about Morgan is her definition of a list, and ours is a bit different. Chad Michael Murray was her last a lister she saw.

[Amy]

I still don't know who that is.

[Lunchbox]

What if you googled him?

[Gilbert King]

And a lister means everybody should know.

[Bobby]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

You shouldn't have to google this person's a list.

[Morgan]

Yes. I mean, all my friends freaked out. I freaked out. Like, top of the top.

[Gilbert King]

Somebody lives here?

[Morgan]

I think so. To my knowledge.

[Gilbert King]

Let's do 10 questions. Yes or no? Only Music?

[Morgan]

No.

[Gilbert King]

Acting?

[Morgan]

Yes.

[Gilbert King]

Man.

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Gilbert King]

Female actor. TV.

[Morgan]

Maybe.

[Gilbert King]

Maybe TVs. Movies. Movies, yeah. Four. I mean, but it's not Nicole Kidman. She for sure lives here. Over 40.

[Morgan]

Yes.

[Gilbert King]

That's five.

[Amy]

Hair color?

[Gilbert King]

That's not. You gotta ask a yes or no question.

[Amy]

Unless. Is she blonde?

[Gilbert King]

But then that cuts off. Cuts off all the rest of them. American.

[Morgan]

Yes.

[Bobby]

What about marrying to someone famous from.

[Gilbert King]

From the South?

[Morgan]

I think so.

[Amy]

I like where you're going.

[Gilbert King]

But you don't know.

[Morgan]

I don't know for sure, but I think so.

[Gilbert King]

Anybody. Anybody else famous in her family?

[Morgan]

I'm gonna Google.

[Gilbert King]

Hold on.

[Morgan]

I don't know.

[Gilbert King]

So she must not be married to anyone famous.

[Bobby]

Yeah. That's good.

[Gilbert King]

So as actor.

[Bobby]

American.

[Gilbert King]

But the thing is, we did this last time.

[Bobby]

Yeah, this is what I'm saying. All her friends freaked out, but I.

[Lunchbox]

Think her friends would have freaked out about Chad Michael.

[Bobby]

Exactly.

[Gilbert King]

Okay.

[Morgan]

You could argue that she does have famous family.

[Gilbert King]

I don't want to argue. Yeah.

[Bobby]

And there's no arguing.

[Gilbert King]

Famous family. Is she extremely wealthy?

[Morgan]

Yeah, for sure.

[Gilbert King]

We have one more question.

[Lunchbox]

Oh.

[Gilbert King]

No.

[Lunchbox]

Did you already ask about if she has Kids.

[Gilbert King]

Well, I would assume she does. We can ask that. But my assumption is yes. If the. But I could be wrong, because she said if somebody in her family. Did she have kids?

[Morgan]

Yes.

[Gilbert King]

Ah, crap. I thought so.

[Bobby]

No, you said you think they live here.

[Gilbert King]

My assumption was I believe so.

[Bobby]

Okay.

[Gilbert King]

Rachel.

[Bobby]

Yep. That's it.

[Amy]

That's my guess.

[Gilbert King]

Got it. She does live here.

[Amy]

She does live here.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, dang. And did you guys talk to her?

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Morgan]

And I told my friends that we can't because she was with her family. They were eating. We were all at a restaurant sitting down, and she walked by, and we all were like, that was Reese Witherspoon. And then she sat. We all had dinner literally at the same time. So basically, we had dinner with Reese Witherspoon.

[Gilbert King]

Did you ever try to listen into their conversation?

[Morgan]

No. They were out on the patio and we were inside, but we could see them, like, the whole time.

[Gilbert King]

You stared at them the whole time?

[Morgan]

No, I felt. I tried not to because I was like, I really like her, and I don't want her to think I'm weird.

[Bobby]

Does she go to the bathroom and.

[Gilbert King]

Then you, like, what the heck? That's your question?

[Lunchbox]

Well, he loves to follow.

[Bobby]

Yeah. Like, that way.

[Gilbert King]

That's so weird.

[Bobby]

You could bump into him in the bathroom. Oh, hi.

[Gilbert King]

Hi.

[Bobby]

And you have a conversation in the bathroom. I mean, that's the easy go.

[Gilbert King]

I would never have thought that, like, wait for them to go pee, then follow them to the bathroom.

[Bobby]

Yes. Even if you don't want to go pee?

[Gilbert King]

No, I would. I would think that would be the case. Yeah. You don't just hold yours until they go. You just wait until they go. Huh? Would you have. Would you have said something you wouldn't.

[Morgan]

If she wasn't with her kids and she wasn't eating? I would have absolutely said hi and tried to, like, take a photo or just be like, I love you so much. Cause I love all of her movies. One of my favorite movies of all time is Sweet Home Alabama.

[Bobby]

Oh, you could have wrote it on a napkin. I love you so much. And just dropped it at the table.

[Gilbert King]

As you walked by or as she's peeing, Drop the napkin over the top.

[Bobby]

Of the stove or slide it under.

[Gilbert King]

Yes. Anybody else? Anybody famous in the past couple weeks around here?

[Bobby]

I don't want to steal the segment.

[Gilbert King]

Do you have one?

[Bobby]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Wait, but was this an A lister?

[Gilbert King]

Yes.

[Amy]

Oh, yes. This is an A lister.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah. So you're back to even. Okay. You're gonna steal a segment with this.

[Bobby]

I don't want to.

[Gilbert King]

We want you to.

[Bobby]

It's an A lister.

[Gilbert King]

Okay.

[Bobby]

It's an A lister. You wanna play 10 questions?

[Gilbert King]

No, we kind of done with you because we don't trust you. Because once you made us. It was Mike D. No. No.

[Bobby]

But I didn't say it was an A lister with Mike D. This was an A lister.

[Gilbert King]

I don't. I'm tired. Thank you.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, so who was it?

[Bobby]

Do you wanna know?

[Gilbert King]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Yes, we wanna know.

[Bobby]

Are you sure you don't wanna play 10 questions? It's kind of fun.

[Lunchbox]

Let's play one question.

[Gilbert King]

One. Yeah, one question. One question. Who was it?

[Bobby]

Are you serious? That's it.

[Amy]

That's it.

[Bobby]

Do I wanna ruin my A lister on a one question?

[Lunchbox]

What, are you gonna save it till we do this the next time?

[Gilbert King]

Were you gonna just hold it for prep?

[Bobby]

Yes.

[Gilbert King]

Okay. Okay.

[Amy]

Oh, my God.

[Gilbert King]

We'll do ten questions.

[Bobby]

Thank you. Do you wanna take a commercial and come back?

[Gilbert King]

No, I just wanna do the questions.

[Bobby]

I mean. Cause people are gonna wanna know.

[Gilbert King]

Are they in music?

[Bobby]

Yes.

[Gilbert King]

They live in Nashville, as far as I know. Are they in country music?

[Bobby]

Yes.

[Gilbert King]

Have they been on this show?

[Bobby]

Yes.

[Amy]

A lot of yeses. We're getting close.

[Gilbert King]

Have you ever been to their concert?

[Bobby]

Hmm. No.

[Lunchbox]

Art, have you asked, are they a man? Is it a man?

[Amy]

That's good. That's good.

[Bobby]

Are you asking?

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Gilbert King]

No.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, so it's a woman.

[Amy]

It's not a man.

[Bobby]

No.

[Gilbert King]

And it's an A lister.

[Bobby]

A lister.

[Gilbert King]

So, okay, let's just walk through country music. A listers that are females.

[Lunchbox]

Carrie Underwood.

[Gilbert King]

Carrie. Shania. Trisha Yearwood. Faith Hill. Dolly, Reba Maren.

[Bobby]

This has turned into a great segment, by the way.

[Lunchbox]

Taylor.

[Gilbert King]

Taylor, if she were here.

[Amy]

Casey Musgraves.

[Lunchbox]

Musgraves. But he's. As far as I know.

[Gilbert King]

Are they under 40?

[Bobby]

Oh, I don't know how to look.

[Lunchbox]

It's not doggy around there.

[Amy]

Yeah, probably not.

[Gilbert King]

I just wanted to know. Guys, I'll be honest with you.

[Amy]

I liked your first question.

[Lunchbox]

Should you just say, does she have blonde hair?

[Gilbert King]

1.

[Bobby]

They are not over 40.

[Gilbert King]

Under 40.

[Lunchbox]

They're under 40. What? And they've been in here.

[Amy]

And there's Lainey Wilson, too.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah. Laney. I was with Laney last week, though, so that wouldn't. That'd be kind of like under. Was it Laney?

[Bobby]

No.

[Gilbert King]

Okay.

[Bobby]

It was not underwhelming. See, boom.

[Gilbert King]

Under, under 40. A lister. I mean, Casey's under 40 and is an A lister. Have they ever performed in the show?

[Bobby]

Yeah. I believe they have Kelsey wrong.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, Casey wrong. Okay, we're out, dude. We're out. Who is it?

[Bobby]

Maren Morris.

[Gilbert King]

Okay, well, I mentioned Marin one, but you just.

[Bobby]

You didn't say you were naming the people.

[Gilbert King]

You're right. I lost. I'm loser. Oh, cool. Yeah.

[Bobby]

Maramores was in line behind me with her son getting ice cream at a walk up ice cream shop.

[Gilbert King]

Did you do anything embarrassing?

[Bobby]

No, because she was with her son and I was like, dang, man, I wish she wasn't with her son right now. I could snap a pic or didn't.

[Gilbert King]

Say that loud though. Did you know? Okay, but that would have been embarrassing.

[Bobby]

It was an old ice cream shop where you walk up and you order at the window and she was standing in line right behind me.

[Gilbert King]

Did you say anything? Hello? She recognize you?

[Bobby]

No, she didn't recognize me. She was very into her kid.

[Gilbert King]

That's called being a mom. Did you think that she probably felt the same way about you, though, where she didn't want to bother you.

[Bobby]

She saw me, she's probably like, oh, man, what's. There's lunch by. That's kind of crazy. I thought she'd want to introduce our kids. They'd be friends or whatever, but that didn't happen either.

[Gilbert King]

Okay, well, hey, thanks for your story.

[Lunchbox]

That's good.

[Amy]

Great segment, man.

[Morgan]

Yeah, I don't feel like he one upped me, though. I had dinner with Reese Witherspoon.

[Bobby]

I had ice cream with Maren Morris.

[Gilbert King]

Neither of you, actually.

[Bobby]

You were separated by glass? I was not separated.

[Morgan]

No, there was no glass. It was open.

[Gilbert King]

I think Morgan wins. Oh, on the battle. Yes, We've all met. Maren's been in here a bunch.

[Amy]

Yeah, we've all met Maren.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah.

[Bobby]

Oh, my goodness. I was so much closer to Maren than you were to.

[Gilbert King]

Okay, this has turned even weirder than the bathroom thing. Okay, thank you. It's time for the good news with Bobby. Tell me something good. An 81 year old waitress named Betty who worked at Eaton park in Ross Township, Pennsylvania. She's been there for over 30 years. 81. But she can finally retire thanks to a viral online fundraiser. Last week, Tammy goes in and Tammy's got Leo, her kid. They visit the restaurant and they start talking to Betty because Betty's a talker. And Betty's still working because Social Security wasn't enough to cover her expenses. So she still waiting tables. Waiting tables. So she posts a video and she's like, hey, this is our waitress named Betty. I don't know. Let's crowdfund this. If we can make 500 bucks, something to make your day better. They raise over $300,000.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, wow. That's amazing.

[Gilbert King]

The reason I almost didn't do this story is because I feel like these two guys who have no retirement at all will start to rely on a GoFundMe in 20 years.

[Amy]

Well, that just depends.

[Bobby]

20 years now we set it up with the show. Just say, hey, you want lunchbox off the show? Everybody hates them. Help them retire. Be great.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, I think they're better things of people's money. That. That's from CBS News, but crazy. That ended up being 300,000 doll.

[Amy]

Wow.

[Gilbert King]

And she's able to retire just because someone went in, went in, happened to be there, learned somebody's story, and was like, let me see if I can help. Without the intention of like a 300,000. It was like, let's do like 500 bucks. A thousand bucks. We can make her a week better to pay her bills. That is what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good, bones. We have 90 seconds to figure out as many of Amy's corny jokes as possible. On Thursdays, we do the investigative morning corner. You ready over there?

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Gilbert King]

Go the morning corny.

[Lunchbox]

If honeybees make honey, what kind of bees make milk cow?

[Gilbert King]

Bees?

[Bobby]

Milk bees.

[Gilbert King]

Will you read it again, please?

[Lunchbox]

If honeybees make honey, what kind of bees make milk Boobies.

[Gilbert King]

That's down his alley. Yeah, I should have been on the Quicker. I get it. It's good, though.

[Lunchbox]

What do you call a book club that's been stuck on the same book for years?

[Gilbert King]

Stuck page. A book club. The club of the club, Mutt. Read it again.

[Bobby]

Loss prevention.

[Lunchbox]

What do you call a book club that's been stuck on the same book for years?

[Bobby]

Library.

[Gilbert King]

There's something to this. A book club. Same book. That means they're reading the same book over and over again. Grant readers of the Bible.

[Amy]

Interesting.

[Gilbert King]

Church. Church.

[Lunchbox]

That's it.

[Gilbert King]

Got it. Wow.

[Lunchbox]

Okay. What does a chicken coop.

[Gilbert King]

He got boobies. I got church.

[Lunchbox]

Or. Sorry. Why does a chicken coop have two doors?

[Gilbert King]

Eggs.

[Bobby]

Interaction.

[Amy]

Exit, Exit, exit.

[Gilbert King]

I need to exit.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Gilbert King]

Omelet over. Easy.

[Lunchbox]

Why does a chicken coop have two doors?

[Amy]

Beak.

[Bobby]

Male. Female. Beak.

[Amy]

Exit. Brexit one is the egg.

[Bobby]

Bug box. Rest in peace.

[Gilbert King]

We read it one more time. Oh, dad. Yes? Will you read that again? I have no idea.

[Bobby]

I don't understand it.

[Gilbert King]

Well, why does that change?

[Lunchbox]

Why does chicken coop have two doors? Because if it had four It'd be a chicken sedan.

[Amy]

No way. We would have never.

[Gilbert King]

Never.

[Lunchbox]

Really?

[Amy]

No.

[Lunchbox]

Because the answer I didn't think you were gonna get. What do you call a book club that's been stuck on the same day for years? Church.

[Amy]

Yeah. We can get the ones with a.

[Gilbert King]

One word answer, the ones with an actual answer. You're like, why would you call two door this? And you're like, you wouldn't. You call a four door? Like, that leads us.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, okay. It's not good for investigative. Yeah, it's good for other days.

[Bobby]

You could have given us six hours and we.

[Lunchbox]

That's not true. I think he would have gotten it six hours.

[Gilbert King]

I was also gonna ask. I've been looking at my notes here. I was gonna ask, Amy, what are you doing today after. After the show?

[Lunchbox]

Oh, I'm getting my yard ready. I'm. I've decided I'm gonna do it myself this year, so I'm going to Home Depot, actually.

[Gilbert King]

You're doing it yourself?

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, no.

[Lunchbox]

Why?

[Amy]

No, this is good.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, this is good. I worked through it because I actually got a bid to have someone come and do some of the work in my beds and things around my house.

[Gilbert King]

What do you mean yourself? Like, what. What things?

[Lunchbox]

Like, stuff in my flower beds and around my tree beds. And I. When I got the bid, I thought, okay, I could hire somebody or I could feel empowered because I did this last year and I did it myself, and I've just got to carve out the time. And so today I'm going to Home Depot and I have my list, and I'm gonna gather my things, and then y'all are gonna be surprised. It's gonna look good.

[Gilbert King]

I think this is excellent for you. I thought you would say something like. Like chainsawing a tree, a massive tree.

[Amy]

That'd be terrible.

[Lunchbox]

No, it's more. I realized the. The therapeutic benefits for me doing it myself, and then also the reward of every time I pull up and I see, like, oh, I did that because last year was the first year I did it myself, and it took a lot of time. So that's why this year I got a bid. And then when I got the bid, I'm like, why am I defaulting to that? I'm just going to do it myself. Because previous years, my husband would pretty much take care of it, and now it's me. I'm responsible for my yard, and I am anticipating feelings. Empowered.

[Gilbert King]

Ex.

[Lunchbox]

Yes. My. Yes. My ex husband. Yeah, that's what I meant. In years past, I had I had a husband for 17 years that would handle the yard stuff. And now your new husband.

[Gilbert King]

Home Depot.

[Lunchbox]

Exactly.

[Gilbert King]

Good husband.

[Lunchbox]

Exactly.

[Matt]

Tariff whiplash is real, folks. And rapidly changing economic policies, they affect all of us to one degree or another. Trump 1.0. So that was more tariff talk. Now we are experiencing the widespread tariff action. Totally scattershot, totally random. The theory, Matt, I think, is that we're trading short term pain for long term gain. That's the tariff theory at least. But I have a hard time envisioning the long game rosy outcomes if these policy priorities kind of continue. It can be hard to know how to react to news of accelerating layoffs, increasing stock market volatility. That's why the how to Money podcast exists.

[Jeremy Scott]

Something unexpected happened after Jeremy Scott confessed to killing Michelle Schofield in Bone Valley season one.

[Gilbert King]

I just knew him as a kid.

[Jeremy Scott]

Long silent voices from his past came.

[Gilbert King]

Forward and he was just staring at me.

[Jeremy Scott]

And they had secrets of their own to share.

[Gilbert King]

Gilbert King. I'm the son of Jeremy Lynn Scott.

[Jeremy Scott]

I was no longer just telling the story. I was part of it.

[Gilbert King]

Every time I hear about my dad is, oh, he's a killer. He's just straight evil.

[Jeremy Scott]

I was becoming the bridge between a killer and the son he'd never known.

[Gilbert King]

If the cops and everything would have done their job properly, my dad would have been in jail. I would have never existed.

[Jeremy Scott]

I never expected to find myself in this place. Now I need to tell you how.

[Gilbert King]

I got Here at the end of the day, I'm literally a son of a killer.

[Gilbert King]

The hill I'll die on is that Nickelback and Creed are actually awesome.

[Amy]

Oh, my gosh.

[Gilbert King]

No, they are. They're awesome and they get made fun of all the time. I saw it again this weekend, so I made a Nickelback joke. I think both Nickelback and Creed are awesome bands. They just got so popular. And when people get so popular, then they become corny. Not because of what they're doing, but because so many people like it. And if everybody likes it, well, it's corny. Coldplay suffered from that. Like, oh, everybody loves Coldplay. We hate Coldplay. They're corny that. That Nickelback and Creed. I will die on this hill. They have so many freaking jams. Loved them then, love them now. People hate on Nickelback and Creed because it was cool to hate on them because they got so popular. The hill I will die on is that Nickelback and Creed are and have always been awesome.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

Accept it.

[Amy]

You've been saying it for years, so.

[Gilbert King]

Except at Lunchbox.

[Bobby]

Oh, it's easy, guys. Everybody loves this Chick Fil A fries. They suck. They're not good. They taste like cardboard. I do not understand those. Love the infatuation with Chick Fil? A waffle fries.

[Gilbert King]

You're willing to die on that hill?

[Bobby]

I am willing to die on the hill that they are gross.

[Gilbert King]

I love Chick Fil?

[Amy]

A waffle fries.

[Bobby]

You guys like cardboard. Enjoy it.

[Amy]

No, we don't.

[Gilbert King]

I don't really like cardboard.

[Bobby]

Well, you do. You eat those. I'm up on the hill over here. I'm gonna die on it.

[Amy]

Eddie Travis Kelce is Taylor Swift's love of her life. They are going to get married. They're going to have kids. They're going to live a happily life ever after. Because from the beginning, dude, I've told you that I believe in this love and it's happening before our eyes. Cuz all the haters don't talk anymore about, like, they don't love each other because it's been years now they love each other. They're going to marry each other. It's awesome.

[Gilbert King]

I'll present a couple pushbacks on that What? Okay, number one would be the people that think it's still set up. And I've heard that recently too, that are like, hey, it's obviously set up. Everybody benefited. Everybody benefited.

[Amy]

Right.

[Gilbert King]

Okay, so you. You in no way believe that. No.

[Amy]

I'm on the hill up here saying, they are in love. It's real.

[Gilbert King]

You did say that. Very, very, very, very early.

[Amy]

From the very beginning.

[Gilbert King]

Secondly, you think they're gonna get married?

[Amy]

Yes.

[Gilbert King]

I mean, I would. Look, it doesn't have to be Taylor. But look at history to provide a glimpse into the future. And most people you date, you don't marry.

[Amy]

Dude, it's been forever. They've been together.

[Gilbert King]

Joe, Alwyn were together six years.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah. But this is different, okay?

[Gilbert King]

And what I like is presenting counterpoints. I'm not even disagreeing with you.

[Amy]

What I've loved about it from the beginning is everyone's like, this will never work out.

[Gilbert King]

Based on the path, based on her past.

[Amy]

Well, and they also think that they are not compatible or whatever. Like they are perfect together. It's gonna be awesome.

[Gilbert King]

That's the hill. You'll die on there. They're together together, Morgan.

[Morgan]

Yeah. So we got the he beers, the Target, the Publix, Kroger, Walmart. None of those are good. The one that's the best is Trader Joe's. Trader Joe's takes the cake over all of the grocery stores and it. A lot of people like to say it's a cult. It's not a cult.

[Gilbert King]

It is a cult.

[Bobby]

It is a cult.

[Gilbert King]

I think all of them are fine. They all get Trader Joe's. Just sometimes, in my opinion, there are things that shouldn't cost as much, that cost more than they should because it's such a cult. And I will give you anything for you. Like so. But I do like Trader Joe's, but. Yeah, yeah, I hear you.

[Amy]

That orange chicken at Trader Joe is so good.

[Morgan]

I'm telling guys it is the best grocery store.

[Lunchbox]

Have everything you need though.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah. And we're not hating on anybody. But I mean, I. I hear you. I just. Sometimes I'm like, this is like three times the price just because it's a Trader Joe's brand.

[Lunchbox]

But then other things are actually very affordable there.

[Gilbert King]

Never saw those. You haven't renting a cart.

[Morgan]

Well, he also doesn't buy the cheap wine.

[Bobby]

Wait, you have to rent a cart?

[Gilbert King]

No, my point exactly.

[Bobby]

Oh, my gosh.

[Amy]

What?

[Morgan]

I've never rented a card at Trader Joe's.

[Gilbert King]

My point exactly. Are you going to start hating them? Dude, Amy, you have one.

[Lunchbox]

Well, I mean, I feel like I'm kind of indifferent on a lot of things, but attic phone calls, I feel like, are my superior form of communication. Most people have moved to texting or voice text or facetiming, but I love a good, solid phone call.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Who calls?

[Lunchbox]

I feel like that's going to be the way to do it forever.

[Gilbert King]

That would be like saying, I think my superior form of travel is running marathons.

[Amy]

Right.

[Gilbert King]

That's a phone call with Amy. She talks a lot.

[Lunchbox]

That's the best way.

[Amy]

Is it because you can't text so much on one text?

[Bobby]

Her fingers get tired.

[Gilbert King]

You can't force us to read all the text right there.

[Lunchbox]

Well, my friends say my voice texts are too long.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, yeah. No, No, I don't. They are. They are. Yeah. So I would say you're.

[Lunchbox]

Well, I'll die on the hill.

[Gilbert King]

That I.

[Lunchbox]

A phone call is better than anything.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, I'm gonna kill you immediately. Like, I got the sniper rifle out. I'm ready to go. Hey, Ray, do you have any of these? What hill you gonna die on? I'm up on this hill right now, ready to die. White Claw is so much better than beer. Beer is fattening. You feel fluffy, and you really can't.

[Amy]

Drink it with food.

[Gilbert King]

White Claw is perfect. I eat it with a burger. I can eat it with pizza. And guess what? All these new seltzers keep getting invented because it's that good. I'm telling you, it's growing. Beer is going to be extinct in 20 years. Go with the White Claw. A seltzer over a fattening beer? It's crazy things. Beer will be extinct. It probably won't be. I don't drink around forever, but would you guys drinkers agree with that White Claw is better than beer? No.

[Bobby]

No.

[Lunchbox]

Okay. I would agree.

[Gilbert King]

Well, the ladies would. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah. Okay. Thank you, Morgan. Do we go to. Oh, you did yours. Everybody did theirs.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Gilbert King]

Amy's hill was the dumbest.

[Lunchbox]

What?

[Gilbert King]

Or maybe. Or maybe Nickelback and Creed. Because I could feel the. The heat.

[Amy]

I can even jump on the other side of that hill, too.

[Gilbert King]

What?

[Amy]

You're like, oh, they're so.

[Gilbert King]

But that's what people say. That that's a hill. That a lot of people.

[Lunchbox]

I'll die on the hill. That Eddie's is the dumbest. Yeah. No, because, I mean, Travis and Kelsey or Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift are gonna get married. Like, you're gonna die on that hill.

[Bobby]

Yes.

[Amy]

Watch.

[Gilbert King]

To be fair, he's been on this hill the whole time, even while we were debating.

[Amy]

I support their love for each other.

[Gilbert King]

And you have since the very beginning when people thought it was fake. Yes. Okay. Wake up, wake up in the morning trying to put you through M riding his wigs. Next bit. And Bobby's on the mic. So you know what this is? This is the Bobby V. This is the last time I'll bring it up. We have a 25lb bag of Lucky Charms marshmallows in studio. Not big fat marshmallows, but Lucky Charms specific marshmallows. And I told the guys if somebody could eat the whole bag in four hours or less, I'd give them $1,500. No, sponsor, just my own money. I don't think a sponsor would sponsor that bit, if I'm being honest. You can see a picture of it. It's up on my Instagram. I'm sitting beside the bag. Mr. Bobby Bones. So go check that out. But here is a voicemail we got. If you shove too much in your mouth, they get sticky, they get soft, they slide into your trachea. They're very sticky. And if someone goes to do the Heimlich maneuver on you to get that out, it doesn't come out. And people have died from eating too many marshmallows at one time. So I hope you get this message before anyone decides to eat 25 pounds of marshmallows for 1500 dollars. I love all you guys, and I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to anybody. I raised the price to 15.50 now. Okay, but it's not the same marshmallow. This is not one of those marshmallows. This is a Lucky Charms marshmallow.

[Lunchbox]

It's very different.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, a big marshmallow, I'd go at least two grand. This is a Lucky Charms marshmallow.

[Amy]

She's talking about the other kind of marshmallow.

[Gilbert King]

Yes, even the tiny, the fluffy. So yesterday, Eddie backed out.

[Amy]

Oh, no. You guys kicked me out.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, but you wanted.

[Gilbert King]

You wanted out.

[Lunchbox]

You were begging.

[Gilbert King]

I'm sure there's some, like, marshmallow charity I can donate this to somewhere if you guys don't want to do it. There are marshmallow charities in every city. Right? Drop it off. I like to donate these marshmallows to homes in need. So first of all, are there any new offers? Are there any new thoughts on eating this bag in four hours or less? Scuba lunchbox and even. Eddie, I'll let you come back in.

[Bobby]

Oh, Eddie.

[Amy]

Eddie's back.

[Bobby]

Eddie.

[Amy]

I mean, I Kind of thought I was out, so I hadn't really been thinking about this.

[Gilbert King]

Don't worry about it.

[Bobby]

There we go.

[Amy]

Just back to me and lunch.

[Gilbert King]

Okay. Yeah. Then Eddie can stay out scuba.

[Amy]

So I think if we want to do this and we can't decide on it, the easiest thing to do is just a coin flip. We can flip it. Heads, you have to eat it. Tails, you don't.

[Gilbert King]

What do you mean?

[Bobby]

Who?

[Amy]

Between me and lunchbox.

[Gilbert King]

You guys both haven't said you wanted to do it.

[Amy]

Well, we both want to do it, but we just can't decide on who's gonna do it. That's. I get that.

[Gilbert King]

I've not heard either person say they would attack the bag for 1500 bucks.

[Bobby]

Oh, 1550. I mean.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, that's a different story.

[Bobby]

Different story. Like when you were at 1500, I was like, I don't think I'm gonna do it. I think I'm gonna sit on the.

[Amy]

Sideline and think about how you do it, though. Can we. Are we allowed to manipulate the marshmallows in any way? Like, I'm thinking about if we crush it down.

[Gilbert King]

That sounds dirty, bro.

[Amy]

I mean, like, crush it down almost like a kool aid powder and make a bunch of kool aid and drink the marshmallows.

[Gilbert King]

You just have to eat the marshmallows.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

As long as you don't get to.

[Gilbert King]

Take the in the hot dog contest. Take a blend around and drink it. Water and stuff. I bought the bag.

[Lunchbox]

That's a good point.

[Gilbert King]

Nobody has to do it. I thought the bag of marshmallows was so funny. I bought it and then. And then brought it in and was like, I wonder what I can do with this. So it can be no. The answer can easily be no, Lunchbox.

[Bobby]

I mean, I'm. I'm still in.

[Gilbert King]

So you will go for four hours.

[Amy]

So after hearing that voice, you know what? I can make it easy, but, like, if he's still in, then I'm out and he has to do it.

[Gilbert King]

I mean, you guys could tag team it, I guess. I know we.

[Amy]

Oh, I would love to tag team it with somebody.

[Bobby]

I like tag teaming seven.

[Amy]

Well, 775 each.

[Gilbert King]

So you guys would eat. I need to think about this. So that's like basically 12 and a half pounds each.

[Amy]

I still don't think they can do.

[Gilbert King]

That in four hours. And if you do it, you get 775 bucks each.

[Amy]

Let it rip, man.

[Lunchbox]

It's more like it's not your money though, dude.

[Gilbert King]

It's not your money.

[Amy]

But let me try back out. There's no way.

[Lunchbox]

Create a. Make it beneficial to you. Like, you're the answer.

[Gilbert King]

But like, this is beneficial to me to watch people eat this many marshmallows. I need to think about that.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Gilbert King]

Would you guys do that? Would you agree to that, though? Because again, the money's not near what it was.

[Amy]

It's still $775.

[Bobby]

I got a question.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah.

[Bobby]

Can we make it a thousand each?

[Gilbert King]

No, we can't raise it.

[Amy]

I like that.

[Bobby]

You know what I mean?

[Gilbert King]

Of course you like that. You'd like it if I made it 10,000 each.

[Bobby]

Ring to it, dude. Like when I say, oh, man, I made a thousand bucks.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, exactly.

[Bobby]

People put more respect on it. Like, you only made 775.

[Lunchbox]

Well, then make.

[Gilbert King]

But you only have to be happy.

[Lunchbox]

Do it yourself.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you have an answer for me?

[Bobby]

About what?

[Gilbert King]

Because I. I'm not leaving this bag here forever. It's gonna get grosser and grosser the.

[Amy]

More ants will start to show up.

[Gilbert King]

So you guys can easily say no.

[Bobby]

Yeah, we could easily say no, but we could easily.

[Gilbert King]

If you want to do it by yourself, we'll do it. If you guys want to split it over a four hour period, I think I could do that too.

[Amy]

If you're down for the split, I'm down for the split. I mean, you like to tag team is there?

[Bobby]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Teaming, baby.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, but it's only 775.

[Bobby]

Yeah. It doesn't have a ring to it. Like a thousand.

[Amy]

How much? Do you have any wallet right now?

[Bobby]

Who? Not that much.

[Amy]

Box.

[Bobby]

Oh, not a thousand.

[Gilbert King]

He always claims he has hundos constantly.

[Bobby]

Let me see what I spent. No, I paid a hundo at the Yale game.

[Gilbert King]

Do you have any hundos now?

[Bobby]

No, I got two hundo.

[Gilbert King]

Let's see.

[Bobby]

I have to go to check.

[Gilbert King]

Let's see. The Honda.

[Bobby]

He has no money.

[Gilbert King]

He's always bragging that he has all these Hondas in his wallet.

[Bobby]

I said I usually carry a hundo, but I had to break it the other day for parking.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah. I'll tell you what. Let me play a song. We.

[Lunchbox]

You need to demand that they give you an answer after this.

[Gilbert King]

Whoa, whoa. We're getting the news coming up too, in a minute. So by the time the news is over, I have to have an answer. Because I'm not letting this bag sit here.

[Lunchbox]

Right.

[Gilbert King]

Because it makes me want to eat it myself. It looks so delicious and delectable. About one minute from the news. I Want to go to Jeremy in Texas? Who's on the phone first? Hey, Jeremy.

[Bobby]

Hey, good morning, guys.

[Gilbert King]

What's up, buddy?

[Bobby]

Oh, not too much.

[Gilbert King]

Well, you're not.

[Amy]

I'm just saying if.

[Gilbert King]

If y'all are gonna tag team those.

[Bobby]

Marshmallows, they should cut the time in half.

[Gilbert King]

It's a great point, I think about that. Whoa. So if they're gonna eat it, it should be, instead of four hours, two hours.

[Bobby]

Who is this idiot?

[Gilbert King]

Jeremy in Texas.

[Bobby]

Jeremy, why'd you call today?

[Gilbert King]

I didn't even think about that. But it does make sense. If it's four hours for one person to eat 25 pounds of marshmallows, it should be two hours for two people. That. Great point. I will not put that on the list, Jeremy. Thank you, buddy. Or put lunchbox to work a little harder, you know? Yeah, I mean, I just want to see someone eat the marshmallows because everybody loves Lucky Charms marshmallows.

[Bobby]

Yeah, but those look like knockoff brand.

[Amy]

No, I think those are real.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, right from the factory, man. Let's go over and talk to Haley and Georgia real quick. Haley, you are on the show. Haley, hey. Yes, it's actually Kaylee, but no big deal. I agree, though. That's why I was calling. I think the time should also be cut, because if they're gonna tag team it, then it only makes sense.

[Bobby]

And no one likes her either.

[Gilbert King]

I do. Okay.

[Bobby]

It's not a big deal, but I'm gonna make sure I'm gonna say my name right.

[Gilbert King]

I mean, why are you hating on her for that?

[Bobby]

I'm just saying, like, she's like, it's not a big deal. If it wasn't a big deal, she.

[Gilbert King]

Would have just gone, why are you going after that? Politicians do. When you go after something, they totally turn it.

[Amy]

Someone tells me, Stephan, I'm like, it's fine. It's whatever. It's Stephen. I don't say anything. Who cares?

[Gilbert King]

Kay.

[Bobby]

Save your life, Kaylee. Kaylee, whatever your name is.

[Gilbert King]

Thank you, Kaylee. When I finish the news, I'll need an answer. Time for the news. Bobby's Big Stories. If you want to feel closer to your spouse, they say what you can do. And the easiest thing to do is open up your wallet. Wallet, heart, bank account, ears.

[Bobby]

Oh.

[Gilbert King]

Oh. Yeah. I've heard that relationship experts agree that listening, truly listening can reduce conflict, boost trust, and lead to a more satisfying partnership. It may sound simple, but it requires more than you think to be beneficial to your relationship. Signals can be that you put your phone away that you offer your undivided attention, that you hold eye contact. That's from Relationships for Dummies By Kate Watches, PhD. If you argue and fight with your significant other on a regular basis, it's horrible for your health. Experts say the stress caused by a 30 minute argument with your spouse lowers your immunity enough to cause a full day's delay in your body's ability to heal. And if your fight is really hostile, you'll need an extra two days to heal.

[Lunchbox]

Wow.

[Gilbert King]

That's from Good Housekeeping. Any thoughts on that? I was watching on TikTok last night, the bit we did, the Bobby Feud, things you don't say to your partner. Well, was laughing out loud at your answers again.

[Amy]

That's pretty funny.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, that's a good one. That was a funny one. Apple quietly adds eight new emojis to iPhones this is from the New York Post. The latest update has quietly released eight new emojis, including a harp, a shovel, a fingerprint, a tree, a flag, and a radish. There's one in particular, though, that has captured people's imaginations. It is the exhausted emoji. It features dark under eye bags, furrowed brow, and an expression of like, ugh, that's good.

[Amy]

We needed one of those.

[Gilbert King]

That's it. That's it. Companies are offering recharge days to workers. They're mad they have to go back to the office. Employers are luring workers back to cubicles with the prospect of more quote me time. This is from the Post. As more companies require employees to return to the office after years of remote work, they're also enticing colleagues with specialty vacation days meant for wellness, rest and recharging. According to Axios, places have reached nearly more than 90% of the pre pandemic levels of office foot traffic. But it's because they're doing things like, what's stupid about this is they're going, hey, come into work and if you come in, we'll give you more days. Not at work.

[Lunchbox]

Right?

[Gilbert King]

Like, that's what's funny. And here's the thing about going to work. I get it. These companies are like, come in. You got to come back to the office. If you were an exemplary employee who really crushed it. Not in the office. They won't make you come to the office. They really won't. What happens is when the results aren't as good, they go well, we need people to watch over the people that are creating these not as good results. Because if they are in an area where they have a supervisor or someone that can look at or look on and say, hey, we need to get better at A, B and C, then that will happen. But if people went away and stayed away and actually did better, they wouldn't be calling them back into the office. So people are upset. They got to go back into work first of all. Okay. Then get a new job. Because what happens? You have to go to work, and they say you have to come to the place and work. A lot of businesses found out, though, that they didn't need all that space. So it was good for them to not have people at work. And they kept people being remote because they're like, well, we don't have to rent a building that's X amount of square feet to hold all the people we really didn't need to hold. But if you were like, amazing at your job and you said, hey, I don't want to come back or I'm out, There's no way they would make you come back. That's my thoughts.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. I guess you have to prove that you have.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah. And people that are having to come back, it's because the results are not what they feel like they should be, and they need them back in the office to make sure they are. That's the new things. Those were Bobby's big stories in a final answer here, I'm gonna throw away the marshmallows. So you have. I'll up it to $1600. Whoa, whoa. It went from 1550 to 1600. That's true.

[Amy]

Sounds great.

[Lunchbox]

That's an extra 25.

[Gilbert King]

So it would be 800 bucks each. You would have two hours to do it scuba and lunchbox. I don't want you doing it because you feel like you need to do a bit. But if you want the 800 bucks to eat half of that 25 pound bag of lucky charmed marshmallows, I am more than happy to let you guys, as you refer to it, tag team it.

[Bobby]

That may have been a bad term.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Only half of the bag. I could definitely do that in two hours, though.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Half the bag, two hours. 800 each.

[Bobby]

Yeah. I mean, I'm not scared of that. Like, unlike Morgan's chair, I'm gonna finish the job.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Gilbert King]

Why would you take shots at other people whenever it has nothing to do with them?

[Bobby]

I just saw the chair sitting there, and I was thinking, oh, I could sit in that chair. No, it's not even finished.

[Amy]

Right.

[Gilbert King]

You know what I'm saying? I hope you lose.

[Bobby]

I'm just saying, like, it's Been days.

[Amy]

People are still saying that she could have beat me. Okay.

[Morgan]

All right.

[Bobby]

I hope all of you lose days later. You know what I mean?

[Gilbert King]

So are you guys saying right now, officially, that you will tackle the bag? You'll get two hours on the clock. We'll stream the whole thing after. After the show, and if you eat the whole bag together, you get 800 bucks each.

[Amy]

I thought you just said it was half the bag.

[Gilbert King]

Now each.

[Amy]

Oh, I heard half.

[Gilbert King]

I heard half the bag. Okay, I'm out.

[Amy]

I'm out.

[Gilbert King]

We're done, right? Not even confirmed. Just count.

[Bobby]

Well, we haven't even.

[Gilbert King]

You're trying to find too many ways out of it.

[Bobby]

We.

[Amy]

We.

[Bobby]

We misheard. We misunderstood.

[Amy]

I just want to clarify the rules, and we're all good. We understand everything else except for that, so I think we're good.

[Gilbert King]

So it's. So it's not a quarter of the baggie?

[Amy]

Yes, It's a half each, whole bag total.

[Gilbert King]

Yes.

[Amy]

Got.

[Bobby]

Got it.

[Lunchbox]

Who was confused by that?

[Amy]

Because I heard half bag, and I was like, half bag.

[Gilbert King]

I'm in.

[Lunchbox]

Okay.

[Amy]

Meant for half bag, half sack. Whatever you got. Let's go.

[Gilbert King]

Okay. Are you going to do not do it because you think five on it. I would recommend you not do it, if I'm being honest.

[Amy]

Really? Don't you want to see it?

[Lunchbox]

You're doing that reverse.

[Gilbert King]

I don't think you can do it. Yeah, I don't think.

[Bobby]

Passive aggressive.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no.

[Amy]

It's not that at all, actually.

[Gilbert King]

I honestly don't think it can be done.

[Lunchbox]

Me neither.

[Gilbert King]

The bag is too big. I don't think it can be done. I wouldn't have brought it in.

[Amy]

800. I'm in.

[Gilbert King]

I wouldn't have brought it in if I thought it was going to be easy to do. So, one, you're probably going to be sick. Two, I don't think you have the heart to do it. And three, that's not cool right there.

[Lunchbox]

No, you're weak. It's fine.

[Bobby]

Excuse me, miss. I didn't even sign up for the challenge. Don't call me weak.

[Gilbert King]

But I think she's smart enough to know it's going to make her sick.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I know. I can't do that. You, on the other hand, I thought you could, but I guess you can't.

[Gilbert King]

Look. Look at his eyes. Those aren't the eyes of a lion.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Is there maybe, like, a consolation?

[Gilbert King]

Like, okay, no more. I'm done. I'm not begging for consolation prizes, but.

[Amy]

I'm just saying, like, we get it like we get all the way through. Like towards the very end, you're like, oh, my God, you guys made it so far and I threw up or something.

[Gilbert King]

If either one of you throws up, it's over.

[Amy]

You guys can do it.

[Lunchbox]

Y'all can encourage each other, the whole thing.

[Amy]

I believe in them. They could do it. All right, I'm in. Lunch. I'm in. Put me down for a yes.

[Bobby]

You know, I mean, I'm not gonna be out.

[Amy]

Manned tag team, dude, Go.

[Lunchbox]

All right, let's go.

[Bobby]

I'm in, you guys.

[Gilbert King]

And. And if for some reason you die from this, no responsibility to me or the company.

[Lunchbox]

Can you just say I or something?

[Amy]

You want to sign anything?

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, I mean, Verbal. Verbal's good.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

I like that.

[Gilbert King]

I'm not forcing you to do this, actually. I'm asking you not to do it. I'd rather you not.

[Bobby]

You kind of. The way you made pokes at me. Kind of like made me get in there.

[Amy]

I believe in you, man.

[Bobby]

Yeah, they provoked me. What is antagonizing this passive aggressively. Yep.

[Gilbert King]

So you guys are both. We can't do it today, obviously, but you guys are both in.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, we'll. We'll type up a statement.

[Gilbert King]

I. Yeah. And have them sign it. And then we need to take the bag and hide the bag so they don't cut it.

[Bobby]

No, you would have a scale. You just put it on a scale.

[Gilbert King]

No, the bag is as is. I don't want you guys cutting stuff out of it. That's what I'm saying.

[Bobby]

You would know. We would if we did that because.

[Gilbert King]

And what scale are we going to put it on that we have here?

[Amy]

We don't have a scale.

[Bobby]

You guys don't have a scale at your house?

[Gilbert King]

All right, it's on. Not today, but it's on. 800 bucks to each of you if you can do the whole bag in two hours.

[Bobby]

So, like, are we going to start at like 5am and just do bits while we're going?

[Gilbert King]

I got to figure it out. I can't believe somebody said yes. I did not think anybody said yes. So now I got to figure out actually the payoff here. And hopefully it's with everybody living. Maybe a little green poopy, but other than that.

[Lunchbox]

Or pink.

[Gilbert King]

Yes. Yes. Okay. Okay. Bobby Bone Show. Story of the day.

[Bobby]

This story comes to us from Boston, Massachusetts. A 19 year old man walked into an urban outfitter store, had a piece of candy and a note. He handed it. Someone says, I have a bomb. Don't say a word. And then he walked away. So they called police, and the guy was standing across the street, and they said, what were you doing, Dude? That's a bomb threat. And he goes, no, no, it was just a prank. I wanted to see how they'd react.

[Gilbert King]

He saw. He saw how that was going. Usually when you do that, you get something, though. Like, I got a something. Give me your money or give me all your rage against the machine shirts. Because it was a hot topic that.

[Bobby]

He said Urban Outfitters.

[Gilbert King]

No, no. But yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, but so I. They get him.

[Bobby]

Yeah, he got arrested, but. And so now he's facing a lot of charges.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, but at least now he knows.

[Gilbert King]

A lot of those will probably be dropped. But you can't do that because he didn't actually do it. It'll probably be a drop. You'll have to do, like, a community service. You don't throw somebody in jail for being really stupid without something bad happening. If you're really stupid and a bomb blows out, you go to jail. If you're really stupid and then nothing happens, you gotta prove a point to them. But then you don't put them in jail.

[Bobby]

But my whole thing is, he didn't even film it. Like, if you're gonna do it, like.

[Gilbert King]

Oh, I didn't think about that part. Cause that's not where my mind goes.

[Lunchbox]

But, guys, y'all, it wasn't about the filming. He just wanted to know how they would react.

[Gilbert King]

And he did, and he got what he was looking for.

[Bobby]

Okay, I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of big news.

[Gilbert King]

On the show today. Lunchbox has a yeast infection. That was the breaking news that you go, so gross.

[Bobby]

But explain. It's in my throat.

[Amy]

That's even worse.

[Gilbert King]

So go hear all about that.

[Lunchbox]

He didn't know men could get it.

[Gilbert King]

I didn't know. I mean, I didn't know man could get it. That part. I have to, like, agree with him. I didn't know either. Yeah, so listen to Lunchbox's infection story up on the podcast. What do you have over there, Lunchbox?

[Bobby]

Hey, Bobby, I gotta apologize to you. You may not be so weird after all. You're buying all these toys and all this kid stuff.

[Gilbert King]

What toys and kids stuff? Memorabilia is different than toys and kid stuff.

[Bobby]

They said adults are buying more toys than ever to the tune of $1 billion a year. Adults now account for 28% of all global toy sales.

[Gilbert King]

Do you think that they're buying toys because they're old toys? To resell them Because I don't think adults are going, the one thing you can do. And I think I said this a few weeks ago. It's like Amy said, what do we buy now that we can invest in? The one thing that I would say do, because you could flip pretty quick, is Legos, because they make limited sets of Legos.

[Amy]

So, like, you buy a box of.

[Lunchbox]

Legos when they come out with a limited set.

[Gilbert King]

Yeah, you buy. You buy as many as you can. You hold them, there are no more, and then you can resell them. That would be the one thing that would kind of recommend, but not really. No.

[Bobby]

This dude, like, he lives in New Jersey, had a condo during COVID He was like, man, I used to love building Legos. So he started buying Legos. He started building skyscrapers in cities. And he had to buy a house because he didn't have enough room for all his Legos. He is now into Legos.

[Gilbert King]

I'm telling you, I'm not that guy.

[Bobby]

Though you might be onto something. I want to apologize to you. And you know what? Maybe you were right.

[Gilbert King]

I like memorabilia. I like sports stuff like baseball cards, but he's kind of a toy.

[Amy]

Who's the basketball player that builds Legos?

[Gilbert King]

We talk to Miles Turner.

[Amy]

Miles Turner, dude. Awesome basketball player and plays in the NBA. Bills, Legos.

[Gilbert King]

Also, not only married or anything.

[Bobby]

Yeah, he had to buy a separate house for his Legos, dude. Like, he had to move out of where he was living for his Legos.

[Gilbert King]

I felt like this story was him going, I want to apologize, but really just made fun of me. Right? Like it was one of those, we'll see you tomorrow. Bye, everybody.

Are your money skills total trash? Well, trust me, you are not alone. Personal finance ignorance is as American as apple pie. But you can improve. Think, Matt, if your emergency fund was invested, especially given the volatility we're experiencing right now. Ouchies. Investing it is ultimately a necessity, but you gotta keep that emergency fund accessible. It needs to be cash parked in your savings. It's time to lear.

[Jeremy Scott]

Something unexpected happened after Jeremy Scott confessed to killing Michelle Schofield in Bone Valley season one.

[Gilbert King]

Every time I hear about my dad is, oh, he's a killer. He's just straight evil.

[Jeremy Scott]

I was becoming the bridge between Jeremy Scott and the son he'd never known.

[Gilbert King]

At the end of the day, I'm literally a son of a killer.
