Amy
No.
Eddie
No clue.
Bobby Bones
That's in. No, no. You do know what it is in my heart. Okay, so you're guessing. I would love to hear guesses because nobody knows, but maybe people get it right. There's a big announcement here on the cake. There is an announcement. Ray, do you want to guess? I was gonna say, is it in partnership with Amy's announcement that she's doing on her Instagra something. It has nothing to do with any partnership of any announcement.
Amy
No, I mean, you know about that, Bobby, but I'm. I. That's not. No, the.
Bobby Bones
No, the cake. No, it is not.
Amy
It's in partnership. Like, it has to do with us.
Bobby Bones
Like, lunchbox is writing something down with a pen. Yeah, he's pulled out post it notes. There's an announcement on this cake. Lunchbox. Yeah, I don't want to ruin it, but. But you don't know what it is, so if you ruin it, you just get it correct. Yeah. Do you want to hold yours a second then? Yeah. Okay. Morgan, any guesses?
Amy
Honestly, no.
Bobby Bones
I have zero idea what's happening right now. No one's ever done it. World renowned.
Amy
Is it? Are you.
Bobby Bones
That's not renowned yet, but it will be.
Amy
Is it personal? Like, for you?
Bobby Bones
I don't want to answer any questions quite yet. Eddie, any.
Amy
I have a guess.
Eddie
I have a guess.
Bobby Bones
Okay, Eddie, go ahead.
Amy
Hope it's not what I.
Eddie
You shot the drone down.
Bobby Bones
Oh, that is interesting.
Eddie
You shot the drone down.
Bobby Bones
That is interesting. I'm not gonna say no to that. There's been a drone flying over mine. Although it's disappeared for like five or six days. It just recently came back, so you could be on to something there. He would have brought the drone. I would not. No, I would not have brought the drone. I would have put a thing in the woods and never looked back.
Eddie
And I think the message says, I found an alien.
Bobby Bones
Oh, well, that's stupid, but it would be awesome. Amy, what do you think it is?
Amy
Is it where your comedy special is going to be?
Bobby Bones
No, but that would work. That would also have been great. But I am not allowed to say that yet.
Amy
Well, until the cake.
Eddie
True announcement.
Bobby Bones
Great. Great. Mike, do you know what it is? No idea, but I think it's delicious. Do you want to guess at all now? I kind of thought what Amy was saying. I thought you're gonna announce that. Oh, no, I'm not. I will say this. I'm not announcing my comedy special. Right now, I would. I would have already announced it had they allowed me to, but not yet. Okay, lunchbox. I will go to you. You think you have it? Yeah. So go ahead. I have written down comedy special announcement. Oh, okay. Good. Dang. I wish I had something to say about that, but in the next couple of few weeks, my comedy special will be airing on a television network. Can't say anything about that. That is not what the cake is. What?
Amy
I feel like that has to be.
Bobby Bones
On cake now, though. Possibly. You never know.
Amy
Well, it is the way he's doing announcing.
Bobby Bones
Hey, Abby, More than a guess. Will you come in the room and take a look at the cake before anybody else sees it? Ooh, yeah. Come on in. Do you understand what that is and what that means once you see it? Don't.
Amy
I think I know what it is now. What? Just from that?
Bobby Bones
No, I just had like a. You know, a realization. A realization? Hold on, let me go to Abby. Abby.
Amy
No, that's weird.
Eddie
No, she doesn't get it.
Amy
Should I get it?
Bobby Bones
Hold on. Wait, let me think. No, I don't understand. Okay, thank you. Abby. You want to take another look to make sure you saw it right? If you're just putting us on, there's a cake with an announcement on it. First time ever. We're revealing an announcement via cake. Behind you. Stupid.
Eddie
Is this like, I finished a show?
Bobby Bones
This will not be this the last time we do this. That's what it is.
Amy
I feel like I have it now.
Bobby Bones
Okay, Abby, any idea? Can we tell you in your ear? Okay, Ray, would you play a little hold music, please? Thank you. Does that make sense now? Yeah. Thank you.
Eddie
And now she's excited.
Bobby Bones
Now she's clapping and walking out of the room.
Eddie
So it's got to be more than. You finished a show on Netflix or something.
Bobby Bones
Unless you love the show. Unless she's a big squid gamer. Morgan, what is your guess? Did you win on the scratch off.
Amy
Your New Year's resolution? Did I get it? Is that it? Does it? Is it a dollar amount? Does it say something like, did you win?
Eddie
There's no way that's it. Because I feel like you would do that, like, on air.
Bobby Bones
This is on air, idiot. You won on a scratch off.
Amy
Is that it?
Eddie
I mean, this is worth a cake for sure.
Amy
Oh, my gosh. And you're gonna make Lunchbox eat a piece, aren't you?
Bobby Bones
Yes. That's the worst cake I've ever seen in my life. No, that would be pie, dude. If it humble pie. If it were humble Pie. Okay, Scooby. You don't know Scooby, Steve, our executive producer. I have no idea.
Eddie
Only guess I have was something to do with somebody rebranding something.
Bobby Bones
Rebranding.
Eddie
Rebranding something.
Bobby Bones
Amy.
Eddie
Jamie.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Okay, got it. No.
Amy
Okay, so all the guesses slowly starting to.
Bobby Bones
Amy's announcement slowly starting to come out accidentally. It is now time to reveal the message on the cake. So. What? Poop. I'm so annoyed.
Amy
Oh, he thinks it's the lottery ticket.
Bobby Bones
So it's only been a month. Three or four. The show had guessed that I was announcing the date that my comedy special will air, and what network, And I have not yet. I'm only. Not allowed. I will soon. I hope Morgan guessed that I hit a scratch off for more than a thousand dollars and I wanted to announce it.
Eddie
That's not it, though.
Bobby Bones
You don't think it's.
Eddie
It's not it. Because Abby would understand that if. Abby.
Bobby Bones
I don't know how it's written on that because it's a dollar amount. So Abby had no idea what that was. And Abby can't hear everything that we do on the show. She's answering calls and Abby's. And she did clap as she walked out. Just for the record, I will say this.
Amy
She's like, yay, Bobby got more money.
Eddie
No one claps at that.
Amy
Yeah, we do. We celebrate each other.
Bobby Bones
Okay, it is now time to reveal the message on the cake. Who thinks I won the scratch off? I. Anybody?
Amy
I guess now I do. Let's see. It's the best option on the table.
Bobby Bones
Okay, well, yeah, it's only option. Eddie's alien one was pretty stupid. Okay, the drone down. This is a cookie cake. It is not about a scratch off me winning money. Oh, hold on, hold on. Then we got guests, guys. Well, we've already been guessing. I got to make. I got to let the people know. Go ahead. I'm saying what else? What else did he win? Fantasy football. It's nothing like that. I will say this. It has nothing to do with. With me personally. Okay, well, I can just open it now.
Amy
Does it have to do with one of us? And we're gonna be like, hey, yes. Which person? Me. Is this how you're choosing to do it all in your sneaky way?
Bobby Bones
I don't know what you're talking about, so no. Okay. It is not Amy.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Phew. It's not Amy. What, though? Is Abby pregnant? Why did you whisper? Abby doesn't know that she. No, I know Abby's not pregnant. That's not what it is.
Amy
Is it a cake?
Bobby Bones
No, it's not a Go, guys. For the. My audience listening to this. I've tried to reveal it.
Amy
And you guys reveal the cake. We're ready.
Eddie
Morgan.
Amy
No. Move that. No sweatshirt.
Bobby Bones
Reveal the freaking cake.
Eddie
You don't have another guess.
Bobby Bones
Okay, it is a cookie cake. On top of it is an Arkansas football sweatshirt that I will. That I will pull. And the cake says. Amy, do you want to read the cake?
Amy
Yeah, I'll read the cake.
Bobby Bones
And then on the cake, we will then have the person's say, what's up? Okay, go ahead.
Amy
It says, congrats, Ray and Eddie.
Eddie
What the.
Bobby Bones
You're both pregnant.
Eddie
What? What is happening? What is happening?
Bobby Bones
Well, why don't you sit down on the microphone? And they're dating.
Eddie
Hey, Ray, what did we do right?
Amy
Are you all getting your own show?
Bobby Bones
Ray, that's news to me if it's a show. What do you. Ray, what do you think it is? Eddie needs me to help him with his arm or something.
Eddie
Yeah, I'm moving in with a Ray.
Amy
It's something that they both did, but they don't look at. That's not new.
Bobby Bones
Can you zoom in on this?
Eddie
Let me see.
Amy
Did. What have y'all done recently? Start saying things.
Bobby Bones
Can you zoom in on this? Like Eddie doesn't even know what it is. Guys, are you idiots. What is it? Lunchbox. Oh, do you want me to say it? Yeah, go for it. They resigned with the company. There you go.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
How did Lunchbox know?
Eddie
I don't know. Ray told me about Ray's agent.
Bobby Bones
Oh, no. Ray told me he did. They both.
Eddie
Yes.
Bobby Bones
They both just re signed long term deals to be here as part of the Bobby Bone show. And so that is the announcement. Congrats, Ray and Eddie, although they didn't even know it, so they didn't know.
Amy
They were doing it. Sound. It seemed like that was something they were doing together.
Bobby Bones
Well, but they both. It was together.
Amy
But did they know they were doing it at the same time?
Eddie
I mean, in passing, I heard about that, but I didn't think much about it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but Ray was so confusing when he said it. He said he still had some stuff to discuss. So I was like. And then when I saw the cake, though, I'm like, oh, I guess he didn't discuss it.
Eddie
Hey, regardless.
Bobby Bones
Hey, regardless. They both. They both almost left, if I'm being honest. You know, they both almost left and we don't want them to have to leave.
Eddie
It was a stressful period.
Bobby Bones
It was a very stressful period for everyone, including me.
Eddie
Give us cake.
Bobby Bones
So they deserve cake. So congratulations, Eddie and Ray. We're happy. And now come eat the cookie cake.
Eddie
All right.
Bobby Bones
All right. And we got another announcement in a couple weeks, another one that I love cake announcements. It's gonna be a new thing. So. Yes. That looks nothing like a cookie cake. It is absolutely a cookie. Okay, watch this. That is the weirdest cookie cake I've ever seen.
Amy
Well, it's just not a great American.
Bobby Bones
Tell me that a double decker cookie cake I think looks amazing. Yes. Where's the deuce? Where's it from? That Mads Eats person I order from on Instagram. I had to make it. Okay, let them eat cake.
Eddie
Are there disco balls on that?
Bobby Bones
Yes. Edible?
Eddie
Really?
Bobby Bones
And cherries. Can you eat a disco ball to confirm? Congratulations and yay. Get us out of here. Clap your hands, everybody.
Eddie
I can't clap my hands.

What if I go from never doing a cruise and then we do this cruise that we're doing as a show and then all of a sudden I'm like, I'm never leaving.
Eddie
You love it so much.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. He spent 24 years living on a cruise ship. That's crazy. He was tired of traveling for his job, moved to Miami, booked a cruise, loved the experience so much and was like, I'm not getting off this thing. He's known as Super Mario by the staff. He recently completed his 1000th cruise. He does have an apartment in Miami where he gets his mail and he'll get off, like when they portray. Because that's what they do, right? They go places and you get off and like have fun in town or something. His fun in town is to go check his mail, like at his place that he has a residence. But he's lived on the cruise ship for over 20 years. That's wild.
Eddie
But he's paying for like cruise.
Bobby Bones
Absolutely. Yeah. The same way you pay rent. I've seen on some of these shows, I don't know if it's like a 60 minutes or something where there are people who retire and they just stay on the cruise ship.
Amy
Yeah, I've seen.
Bobby Bones
They just keep paying money to stay on it.
Eddie
That's cool.
Amy
I mean, look at your life. You get to experience so much of the world if you do that.
Eddie
Can you call yourself a sailor at that point? Because you're in.
Bobby Bones
I mean, you live in a sailing though. Like a sailor has a sail, right?
Eddie
I mean, I just feel like pop by the sailor man. He didn't have a sailboat, he just a sailor. He was on the sea the whole.
Bobby Bones
Time and he was real. So you have a point there. We are going on a show cruise and I was cutting a commercial for it this morning because we haven't cut any commercials. I wanted to make a big deal about it because we've not. I've said no to it for like two years. And so everybody's excited. There have been, like, 1300 people now reserve. And I said, hey, we're leaving February 26th and kickoff. Kevin, who is in here with me, when I cut the commercials, like, you can't say that. I was like, why? That's when we're going. February 26th. He goes, Sounds like you're saying February 26th next month. And I was like, oh, February 2026. That's right. He was like, yeah, people are gonna show up February 26th with, like, a suitcase.
Amy
So you mean February 2026?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. You have, like, a date.
Amy
But is there a date in February or just set that month?
Bobby Bones
I don't know, dude.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
I think all that comes, like, I don't know enough about it specifically, which is why it's not a commercial. I'm just excited to go. But I know you go to bobby bones.com and you can reserve, like, your cabin, and maybe you live on it.
Eddie
You stay there for 20 years.
Bobby Bones
I know, Bones. I'm doing eight episodes of the official Yellowstone podcast. I want to play a clip. Governor Perry. Right. I think. But I also think of Governor Perry from Texas.
Eddie
Rick Perry.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. When we were there. But Wendy Moniz is her name, and she plays Governor Lynelle Perry, who then turns into Senator Perry and is, like, the love interest as well, of our boy Kevin Costner, or as you call him, Kevin Costner. Right. So she's on the first episode, and I asked her, like, when did you start to feel that this show was getting massive, like, how big of a cultural impact the show was having? When did you start to feel like, culturally it was impacting? Culturally, when it was impacting. There's probably other things that indicated it, but for me, the biggest one was when people started dressing up like our characters for Halloween. I was like, what is happening? I mean, and even my character, I'm just like, I'm a politician in a suit. And there were people that were dressing up like me and. And John, someone was dressing up as my character for me. I was like, whoa, that's what's happening here. So listen to the Yellowstone podcast. I believe you can just go search for a Yellowstone official podcast. It's on that feed. I don't know. I thought it was gonna Bob Boneshow feed. So it's not there yet, but go search for the official Yellowstone podcast. She is the guest. Pretty pumped about that. I did an interview with Teeter the other day.
Amy
How did it go?
Bobby Bones
She's not teetering. Real life.
Amy
I know she's an actress?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Yeah.
Amy
Well, she's a model too.
Bobby Bones
She's like Teeter on the show. So I'm from Arkansas, you know, big thick accent. And I was like, hey, everybody, it's Jen Landon Teeter. And she's like, hello, how are you? And I'm like, no, say it ain't so. But yeah. The official Yellowstone podcast is up. I hope you check it out.
Amy
I just followed it.
Bobby Bones
Oh, did you find it?
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
What'd you search?
Amy
Official Yellowstone podcast.
Bobby Bones
Nailed it. Yeah. Thank you very much. All right, back in a second, Bones. I want to start with the story about Bailey Zimmerman. I love Bailey as a person. He also makes great music. Here is rock and a hard place of controversy. So Luke Bryan, every year has this massive music festival down in Mexico. Everybody goes pretty hard, let's not lie. And Bailey was a little drunk, I think, while he was performing is a pretty rough performance. I want to play you some of Bailey performing at Crash My playa. I've heard worse.
Eddie
That's tough, though.
Bobby Bones
That's pretty tough. That's when you let the crowd kind of take it. Maybe again, I'm biased. I love Bailey, But Bailey came on and he apologized on his social media for what he called a subpar performance. Here you go. What happened was I decided to drink that day, which was a mistake, and I got up on stage and I was too drunk to play, and I sang awful. I played awful. Nobody got the show that they wanted or paid for. And I'm disappointed in myself. Justice for Bailey.
Amy
Yeah, I mean, I like that. He just straight up owned it. And he said, you know, tomorrow's a new day. Or at least that's what he wrote in the caption. And, like, he's gonna do better. He promises. It just made me wonder too, like, what if we just showed up at our job and we were like, sorry, I decided to drink too much today.
Bobby Bones
So a little different meaning. This is like a multi day festival where everybody's drinking the whole time. Everybody's probably drunk watching that show too. The thing with Bailey, which I've said before, is he kind of got thrust into the spotlight. Dude's working on oil, like pipe, and does a tick tock and it explodes. And all of a sudden people are like, let's throw money at you. And he's like, I've never made this much money, okay? And so now he's playing these big shows, never having developed the muscles of playing the small shows, having to learn how to play sick, having to learn how to when to cut yourself off. Drinking. I'm not making an excuse.
Amy
Oh, no, not at all. It's just a question that popped in my head of like, you know, just, you know, curious.
Bobby Bones
But he is going through what a lot of people go through when they're playing the smaller shows but on massive stages.
Amy
True.
Bobby Bones
So justice for Bailey. Except nobody is mad at him really. No, he's just kind of embarrassed. He can sing, he really can sing. And I just want to give him a big old hug. I'd like to apologize for something now.
Amy
What?
Bobby Bones
Oh, well, some people feel like the cake announcement wasn't that big and I decided to drink this. Listen, I was drunk this morning.
Amy
I decided to drink.
Bobby Bones
We had a message on a cake, so I wanted to reveal something on a cake and I thought this is a funny bit. And so on the cake the message was, congratulations to Ray and Eddie. They just re signed multi year deals to stay here with the show. I think where that took a wrong turn as you guys started guessing much funnier things like I won the lottery, we were dating. My comedy special, like all that. All that. But I do have a. I'm ordering another cake right now.
Eddie
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Oh, because I got another. I got another message in the next couple weeks. Excellent cookie cake, by the way. But yeah, I'd like to apologize. Maybe had a little too much energy drink this morning.
Eddie
It's okay, man.
Bobby Bones
But you can watch that video. It's up bobbybones.com More news. Research confirms the parents do actually have a favorite child. Nearly 74% of mothers and fathers show favoritism towards their eldest child, A new study reveals. This is from the Journal of Family Psychology. I would think that's because you just spent more time with them. Again, don't have kids yet. But the oldest child mostly is the favorite. Amy, your thoughts?
Amy
Oh, well, I don't have this experience. I have two kids. One is older than the other, but I got them on the exact same day. So I've spent the exact same amount of time with them through our adoption. So I don't know. I mean, I'm the youngest. I don't feel like my parents liked my sister more than me.
Bobby Bones
They did. They told me once. Yeah, they're like, take care of her. She was never our favorite.
Amy
Okay, listen, my sister did come across as like the angel, but she was sneaky.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but she was older, you know?
Amy
Right. So I don't know about that.
Bobby Bones
When you start unpacking after a trip, if you fly, this is from afar. They say clean your luggage because your bags have laid in all sorts of grease and filth on the plane or in baggage claim or when they're being shipped all around or we're in the plane. Just throw it like it's so disgusting. They're like one, don't throw it on your bed when you get to the hotel to open up and get all your clothes out or when you get home. Yeah, just clean it because most people don't. It's like cleaning your phone. I clean my phone about every other day. We have alcohol swipes at the house. Caitlyn got them and so they're. Luckily they're in a place I can just grab them and do it. But clean my phone. Don't have to worry about it. Knock it out. Because all the gross places this thing is. And sometimes when I go into prisons I keister it so I let my friends use it.
Eddie
You definitely have to wash it after.
Bobby Bones
All the way up there. Yeah. Two missing Ohio children turn up in Iceland three months after they vanished.
Amy
Oh my gosh.
Bobby Bones
How about that? Two Ohio siblings who went missing in October were found with their mother in Iceland. Weird. The unnamed two kids aged 8 and 9 were reported missing to the Canton police. The report claimed their 34 year old mom stopped taking her mental health medication, abandoned her apartment and the children did not go to school anymore. The U.S. marshal said the missing children were initially tracked to Denver, Colorado. From their investigators learned they went to London and then Jersey and then they ended up in Iceland. They have the kids in special care, I guess. I don't know if the dad's involved and the dad's like, hey, where'd the mom and the kids go otherwise how do you even know they're missing if it's cool? Yeah, that's true. Yeah.
Amy
If your kids don't show up, they start reaching out.
Bobby Bones
But will they start being like they're missing or will they go like, mom, you're in trouble because your kids. There's like truancy.
Amy
I think that they have a duty to report that if it's been a certain amount of time.
Bobby Bones
News 5 Cleveland with that story. Although Iceland's pretty cool trip to go.
Eddie
Is it?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I mean, yeah, you're a kid.
Eddie
They have those like hot tubs, right? Those natural hot tubs.
Bobby Bones
One humongous one.
Eddie
Yeah, I've seen that.
Bobby Bones
It's like a lake.
Amy
You mean like a hot.
Eddie
Oh, like a natural hot spring.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's like a hot lake.
Eddie
That's cool.
Bobby Bones
You get in it and then you get out pretty quick. There's a lot of People in it. It's like you take a bath with a bunch of weirdos. Yeah. Netflix is boosting subscription prices. So here's what Netflix and these things are doing to us. We're the frog, and they're boiling us. Meaning you take a frog, you put a frog in cold water. Frog just chills. Nothing to it. You slowly turn the heat on. It's just warm. Frog's acclimated, just chills. You turn the heat up, starts boiling. Frog doesn't know the difference, really, because it's been so slow. All of a sudden, frog's dead. Because they've been boiled to death. So they're frogging us.
Eddie
Netflix is gonna kill us.
Bobby Bones
Well, the prices, man.
Amy
Slow death.
Bobby Bones
So we don't even know the difference because it's just slowly being raised. The temperature's slowly being raised, but it's.
Eddie
High now, though, right? Like, what is it, 12 bucks?
Bobby Bones
A standard plan with ads will go to 7.99. A standard subscription will increase to 17.99. A premium plan, 24.99. An extra member will cost 8.99. That's CBS News with that story. You are the frog. They are the boiling pot.
Eddie
And we're still going to get it. Like, no one's going to cancel it.
Bobby Bones
Well, because they're boiling us, right? If they were to go, we're going to raise it $20 a month. A lot of people will go. Not for me, because it's like a dollar here, a dollar. It's one degree up. One degree up.
Amy
Like, what do you get more with the 2499 versus, like, the 17? Like, I don't know the difference.
Bobby Bones
I need the ability to watch it on more screens.
Amy
Oh, okay.
Bobby Bones
I don't think you get extra channels, because I think you get all the channels. You get Netflix.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
A passenger is stunned after $2,500 worth of designer goods mysteriously disappears from her suitcase. I'm surprised that there aren't cameras on anybody that's going through our suitcases at any time to check for anything, like, because stuff gets on all the time.
Amy
And so, gosh, there'd be a lot of footage everywhere.
Bobby Bones
What do you mean?
Amy
Well, if everybody touching this stuff, they should just.
Bobby Bones
There's just a room they should do it in, and there should just be cameras in those rooms. It's just one more room to put surveillance on at an airport when there are probably 500 cameras everywhere. Anyway, so she said she had a bunch of stuff in there, and she came back, opened it up, unzipped it, and all that was in there was a pair of workout leggings, a lunchbox, a sports bra, and a laptop charger. All her other stuff have been stolen.
Amy
Oh, my gosh.
Bobby Bones
That's from the New York Post.
Amy
That's terrible.
Bobby Bones
And then warning, there's a deadly risk if you're eating erection honey, you could be in trouble.
Eddie
What the. What is that?
Bobby Bones
I'm glad you asked because I haven't tried erection honey yet. But packets of honey laced with drugs like Viagra have been seized because people are eating erection honey. And some of them not safe. Like, is it Amy's jaws wide open.
Amy
Like, it's. If this is an illegal thing.
Bobby Bones
The packets of honey and gels are sold as shots or sticks or packs. They have names like Black Horse, Biomax. They sell them. Well, all over, but. And they do it at like, clubs like Aphrodisiac Honey. I guess you just eat it from the pack.
Eddie
Whoa.
Bobby Bones
But if someone's like, yo, you want some erection honey? Maybe.
Amy
Okay, that's definitely illegal.
Bobby Bones
Did you think it was legal?
Amy
I thought maybe it was some holistic.
Bobby Bones
Thing, allergies you do. Local direction honey.
Amy
Maybe it wasn't Viagra or something. Like it was just another plant type thing that can help with that. And they were putting it in honey and selling it legally.
Bobby Bones
Nah, Cialis and Viagra, that's what they're mixing it up with. That's from the sun and that's the news. Those were Bobby's big stories.

Amy
This Disney cruise got me feeling like a queen.
Bobby Bones
We can get massages at Sense's Spa, have a meet and greet with Black Panther. Ooh, I love him and I can't.
Amy
Wait to Sunbathe on the private island.
Bobby Bones
And the kids will be fine. Girl, they're good. Exactly. While they hang in the kids club.
Eddie
With Mickey Mouse, we can do our.
Bobby Bones
Thing and do it well all day. Disney Cruise Line is where we came to play. Amy, I have a question. I want to know how you would deal with this situation. So on our podcast, 25 Whistles. We're going to New Orleans for the super bowl, and we're very excited. There's five of us on a bus on the whole crew. Yeah. Well, the bus is because we're going to Atlanta to do a show, then Mobile to do a show. We're sleeping in the bus. Just like we're touring.
Amy
But, like, when y'all get to the super bowl, are you sleeping on the bus?
Bobby Bones
No. We have hotel rooms then.
Eddie
But does the bus pull up to the Super Bowl? Because that's cool.
Bobby Bones
Well, we're lucky. The radio station is right across from the stadium. Oh, so the bus can park there. Listen, it's a whole thing, so I don't even know, but I know there's a couple hotel rooms. But also, we slept on a bus so much. It's not that big of a deal to sleep in a bus. Okay. But, yes, we are going down on a bus, and we're ending at the Super Bowl. We're doing two days of, like, interviews and stuff. We have, like, Emmett Smith and Deion Sanders, and, like, it's going to be great.
Amy
What do they call that? Like, Radio Row or something?
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And we have a big stage, and we've been very fortunate that, like, some of the big people, like, we want to come and do it. So all that's happening. Great.
Amy
Are you doing to talk too much? Talk too much.
Bobby Bones
Lots to say.
Amy
Lots to say.
Bobby Bones
We are. Matt Castle's coming down as well. So I'll be doing two shows, but we're going to do them for a couple hours on this big stage.
Eddie
Is Matt busting with us?
Bobby Bones
No. He has family and kids, and he's going to come down. Yeah. So here's my question. The NFL gave me four super bowl tickets, okay? So we're going to go to the game. We have five people on the crew.
Amy
Okay. Why are you asking me? Because I don't want to be the decider.
Bobby Bones
You don't have to be the decider, but what would you do? Because everybody is deserving. So I'll just walk you through who the people are. And I've told them. This is not like, I haven't. It's a Super Bowl. Ticket to buy one is like thousands of dollars. I'm not buying another ticket.
Eddie
And Amy, it's not like they won't go on the trip. Like, they'll go on the trip.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, they're going on the trip.
Eddie
And they'll be in New Orleans and.
Bobby Bones
Two days of work because we're recording the show. And again, they're going to get to meet, like, looking at the schedule. Emma Smith, Deion Sanders.
Eddie
Stop trying to sell it.
Bobby Bones
I don't need to sell.
Amy
Going to be a cool experience.
Bobby Bones
Going to be awesome.
Amy
And honestly, you've said before that watching the super bowl on TV is.
Bobby Bones
You want to go. You want to go to the Super Bowl. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. You're not getting about it. I'm saying if you're. If you're down, she takes one of you guys.
Amy
I get that people want to go, but at the same time, I'm trying to help you out.
Bobby Bones
No, I know. But if you're doing. You have to watch in a hotel room.
Amy
Yeah. By yourself.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so.
Eddie
So in the city that it's happening.
Bobby Bones
Like right across the street. Yeah. Like our people that are going to be a guest, Reggie Bush. So they're going to get to see some cool stuff. Greg Olson, Emmett Smith, Deion Sanders, Nico Collins. So we have a lot with more to come. A lot of great people coming by. So it's going to be fun for everybody. But I only have four tickets for five people. The people are me. I'm not. My ticket's not up for grabs. Right.
Eddie
Like you're going 100%.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. So. So yeah.
Amy
I mean, you work with the NFL now, so.
Bobby Bones
Well, yeah. And I just got tickets. I'm not even putting myself up in the game or whatever we do.
Eddie
I've been a few times already.
Bobby Bones
Twice. I'm gonna say a few because as few as three. But I've been twice. Okay. But I'm the one that got these tickets. I know, I know.
Eddie
Just putting that out there.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so now we have four people for three tickets. We have Mike D, executive producer of the show. Also big part of this show, we have Eddie Main, co host of the show. We have Reed who does all the editing, all the video, like visually all the edit, like big. The number one creative part of the show that's not like on the air. And then kick off Kevin, who does ever all the behind the scenes stuff. Like he's run. He's. So everybody has a vital role. Who would you kick out or what would you do to kick somebody Out.
Amy
I think the name's in the name. It's in the name. Kick out. Kick off.
Bobby Bones
Kevin. Oh, wow.
Eddie
Kick out Kevin.
Bobby Bones
Did you pick that just because of the name or because of his role?
Amy
Well, that made it easier for sure. I think that. I don't know. How long has Reid been working with you?
Bobby Bones
I'm doing as long as closer. Way closer than Kevin. I don't know if maybe around the same amount of time.
Eddie
I'd say the same, but different.
Bobby Bones
Different positions.
Amy
I know they have totally different positions. I'm just saying, who's been in your ecosystem?
Bobby Bones
But does that matter? Because this. I'm. I'm not talking.
Amy
Yes, it matters, because that's one of my methods right now is how long people have been working with you. And that's the hierarchy here. So my gift.
Bobby Bones
Somebody grabbed Kevin.
Amy
Eddie's a given. And then the toss up is between, obviously, Reed and kickoff. Kevin. And I gotta say, Reid can probably gather some really cool content of y'all at the game.
Eddie
Like, I don't think he can shoot professional stuff there.
Amy
Oh, not professional, but he's. Yeah, he can use.
Bobby Bones
So. But how about this? Let me throw another wrinkle.
Amy
Yeah, his phone. People shoot with phones all the time.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, Eddie's stupid.
Eddie
No, I'm saying we can maybe. You big stupid idiot.
Amy
Maybe Eddie doesn't go.
Bobby Bones
So let me throw this wrinkle. He can be in the glass room so he can hear.
Amy
Oh, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Just throw on some headphones. Talking that mic in there.
Amy
This is nothing personal, Kevin.
Bobby Bones
So what about this? Reed? Not a massive sports fan.
Amy
Oh, well.
Eddie
But.
Bobby Bones
But would love to go to a Super Bowl. It's kind of a.
Amy
Okay, tell me the teams.
Bobby Bones
Well, there's four left.
Eddie
We don't know yet, so.
Bobby Bones
We don't know yet. And nobody's favorite team is in the mix because that would actually matter.
Amy
Yeah, that's what I was.
Bobby Bones
So, Kevin, we were talking about we have four people for three tickets, because obviously I'm getting one for the Super Bowl. Yeah, four.
Amy
Five people for four tickets.
Bobby Bones
No, we have three people for.
Amy
Oh, I get you.
Bobby Bones
I'm in. So four people for three tickets, and Amy has selected you to not get a ticket. What?
Amy
No, no, no, no, no. We're talking through it, Kevin.
Bobby Bones
But you didn't pick it.
Amy
I said, right now I'm giving you my system. And he has the word kick in his name, so kick out Kevin.
Bobby Bones
So wait, radio. Amy shouldn't be on the radio, then?
Amy
No, it means I should be on that backfired.
Bobby Bones
Got her there. Kevin, why do you think you should get a ticket? Because out of all those guys, excluding maybe you, Mike's pretty big fan too. But Reed is definitely not the biggest sports fan. We all know that. I think I'm the biggest sports fan out of everybody on that show besides maybe you.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
And sports fandom is the ranking of that. Does that matter?
Amy
I think so.
Eddie
So now, but you've already kicked them out.
Bobby Bones
What would you do? What kind of competition would you have? That seems so to fairly kick. Wow, that seems so fun. That's fun though.
Eddie
Silly.
Bobby Bones
It's like I'm running squid games.
Amy
Do anything. Like degrading.
Bobby Bones
What do you think I'm gonna make him do? Okay, spread your butt cheeks, Eddie. Bobbing for apples in his butt. We're not gonna do anything like that.
Eddie
I mean, for a Super bowl ticket.
Bobby Bones
There'S no telling how far he'd go.
Amy
Okay, well, Kevin's down, so.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Amy
I don't know. It's hard. I really wanted to go with like, who's worked with you the longest just to make it easy. But if Reid's not a sports fan, like, or as big as a football fan as Kevin, oof, that makes it more difficult.
Bobby Bones
So to you it would be Reed in order to go home. It'd be Kevin first, Reed second.
Amy
I want to know the dates of when they started working, and that makes it easy for me.
Bobby Bones
What about working on that show specifically? They started the same day.
Amy
I'm just gonna go. When they started working with you in.
Bobby Bones
General, did you work with me before Reed or July of 21? I have no idea. I don't know when Reed started dates.
Amy
Okay, we can figure it out. I bet Reed knows.
Bobby Bones
Morgan, what do you think? I feel like you should do super.
Amy
Bowl trivia or sports trivia.
Bobby Bones
Reed will lose. I'm down with that. Like, he wants to go, but Kevin would probably beat everybody else. I mean, that's how we determine a lot of things on this show is games. Uh huh.
Amy
I mean, could they race?
Bobby Bones
Well, what they were gonna do there was gonna be a hundred pound challenge.
Amy
Well, you're going.
Eddie
Well, no, I'm not.
Bobby Bones
It's not guaranteed. It isn't set. Set.
Amy
I just feel like Mike and Eddie are a shoe in.
Bobby Bones
Or what? In.
Eddie
What'd you say?
Amy
A shoe in.
Eddie
A shoe in.
Amy
Like, as they should be. That makes sense to me. It's the or.
Eddie
That makes sense to me too, man.
Amy
Or day of. Can you scalp a ticket?
Bobby Bones
I'm not paying. I'm not paying. Thousands of dollars. For another ticket.
Amy
I didn't pay for that last minute. Don't they go down?
Bobby Bones
If they go down, they're still going to be thousands of dollars. Can we sneak someone in?
Amy
Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Like I don't know, there's some sort of competition we're going to need to do that has nothing to do with sports knowledge. And it can't be physical because Eddie and Kevin were going to. There's. We have a 100 pound ball we work out with it's heaviest crap. It's 100 pounds and you throw it over your shoulder and they were fighting over who's stronger. And we can't do that because he broke his arm.
Eddie
Right.
Amy
But Kevin is right.
Eddie
No, no, you don't know that.
Bobby Bones
There's a conspiracy theory that Eddie broke his arm or says he has his arm broken so he doesn't have to do this competition.
Amy
That's why he's not in a cast. Cast conspiracy.
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Amy
That makes sense now.
Eddie
No, it doesn't.
Amy
Yes, it does.
Bobby Bones
It was two days later. It was two days later after we said that was going to be.
Eddie
And I came up with roller skating. Come on, guys.
Bobby Bones
Hey, Scooter Steve, what are your thoughts on this?
Eddie
I think you just do something super simple. Draw names out of a hat, call.
Bobby Bones
It a day, move on. I do. We could always do a Connect 4 tournament.
Amy
What?
Bobby Bones
I do have the Connect 4 game here with the 4.
Eddie
But I like. Yeah, like some sort of element where it isn't just like deciding based on names or whatever. We have to have some sort of challenge or tournament to win this.
Amy
Didn't we do connect 41 point there was a fight.
Bobby Bones
Well, no, that was a different game, different situation.
Amy
It was Connect.
Bobby Bones
No, it was Lunchbox and it was a connect.
Eddie
There's always.
Bobby Bones
It was a rage thing. It's every game. Yeah. It doesn't have to be connected. They didn't like it. Yeah, it doesn't have to be. They didn't like it.
Amy
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Bobby Bones
How about this? Let me, let me switch this up on you.
Amy
Okay?
Bobby Bones
Now way back in the day, there was a plane crash. And in the plane crash there were a few people that died. How many do you know? Buddy Holly died. The Big Bopper died. Do you know who else died? Who?
Amy
I don't.
Bobby Bones
Richie Valens died.
Amy
Richie. Richie.
Bobby Bones
Right.
Amy
So yeah, La Bamba.
Bobby Bones
So they're. They're all like, okay, we gotta get on this trip, let's go. And you know who didn't die? Who did not get on the flight?
Amy
The person I Don't remember who it was exactly, but yes.
Bobby Bones
Tell me they're famous. Famous country artist I know starts with.
Amy
A W. Williams, Jr. Williams.
Bobby Bones
Sonoma.
Amy
Waylon Willie.
Eddie
Yeah, you're right.
Amy
Waylon Jennings.
Bobby Bones
He played in a band, right? He was a player. So what if this. Because a lot of terrorist stuff happening.
Amy
Stop.
Bobby Bones
What if what. What if in like the WHO doesn't go, they sit back. But there's like a terrorist thing that happens in New Orleans in the stadium. Bobby, that could be Waylon Jennings.
Amy
Well, don't put that out there.
Bobby Bones
Didn't. Do you think me saying it's gonna create a terrorist attack that isn't that manifesting?
Amy
No, I mean, we just don't like that energy.
Bobby Bones
I'm just saying the person that loses can. Can actually feel good about that. You go, well, if something bad happens, at least I won't be there for that if it does happen.
Amy
So that's how they look at it. That's how they look at it.
Bobby Bones
I decided maybe I don't want to go. No, I'm kidding. Would you. Would you not go big groups? Would you go to the Super Bowl?
Amy
Yeah, I would go.
Bobby Bones
Me too. Yeah.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
We have a buddy. It's like, I wouldn't go. Well, we're like, well, you didn't get invited. He's like, but I still wouldn't go. But. But we're thinking if you got a fight, I do it for sure.
Amy
Yeah, I would go.
Bobby Bones
Because he's scared.
Eddie
Because he's scared.
Bobby Bones
He's like, I'm scared of big groups.
Eddie
Yeah, big groups. Terr.
Amy
Then that makes sense. I mean, I get that fear, but I think it's going to be pretty safe.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Could draw straws, you know, like real old school. The short ends.
Amy
That's like the drawing out of a hat, though.
Bobby Bones
I mean. But the straw thing is like, I don't know. Might be Russian roulette.
Amy
I just.
Bobby Bones
What we should do.
Amy
Yeah, Russian roulette.
Eddie
Then we get rid of someone.
Bobby Bones
That way somebody's just gone. They don't even not get to go. They just don't.
Eddie
And they won't even know they're going.
Bobby Bones
Last day. Last they knew they were going. Rushing your. Let it, man.
Amy
Okay. Y'all are watching too much squid games.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, for sure. That. That's what I'm dealing with now is I don't have. I have five people with four tickets.
Amy
Can you. Is there a way to get a fifth?
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Amy
Not without buying it. I'm just saying I don't Know where?
Bobby Bones
Sure. Buying it. I don't know. Okay, like, how else do you get it? Barter.
Amy
I don't envy you.
Bobby Bones
No, you can envy Meeks. I'm going. Yeah. He's going.
Eddie
Yeah, no problem.
Bobby Bones
I'm going. Okay. That's what we're dealing with now. Let me know if you get any good ideas.
Amy
I don't like the Connect4 idea, I'll tell you that much. I know you do, but I don't feel like that's kind of boring.
Bobby Bones
Not. You don't think that for social content you record two people playing Connect 4 to go to the Super Bowl? That would be awesome.
Eddie
That's the title. Connect four for the Super Bowl.
Bobby Bones
You don't think that would be, like. That would be great content?
Eddie
Oh, that's actually pretty good. Yeah.
Amy
Okay, so you wouldn't.
Eddie
You want to see, like, people play Connect 4?
Bobby Bones
I didn't even think possible. Connect 4 is like an eight year old game. Yeah, I didn't think about it until I was sitting here on my desk because we were going to use it for something else. But if we did, like a tournament of Connect4 on first for social as well for super bowl tickets, that. That's a plus stuff.
Amy
Oh, okay.
Bobby Bones
Or operation. I was gonna say operation.
Eddie
Can't do that. My right hand's broken and my left. Better start practicing with my left hand. Is that he even allowed to travel with that arm? Like, is it okay to, like, be around all those. Moving around, like, large groups, that kind of stuff?
Bobby Bones
He has a broken arm, not malaria.
Eddie
Yeah, I know, but I don't know, though.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, no Ebola, just, you know, I think I'm good.
Eddie
School.
Amy
He's good. Because if, like, somebody bumps it, it's not going to hurt because it's not really broken.
Bobby Bones
Now we're talking. Now we're talking.
Eddie
Hold on.
Bobby Bones
NPR's on the Phone. They say it is broken, but people do think it's a conspiracy. They do. Okay, y'all stupid. Let's get poor.
Amy
Reed's not even here to, like, help figure it out.
Bobby Bones
Is Raid in the lobby? Nope. No. Okay. Okay, well, I'll update you. Thank you. Thank you for sharing that.
Amy
When are you gonna decide?
Bobby Bones
Maybe even today. I don't know. We have to decide soon. Why? Because I gotta brace somebody for not being able to go.
Eddie
You really don't. You can wait till, like, as soon as.
Bobby Bones
I'm so rude.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
All five of us walk up to the.
Amy
You like, take the Connect 4 with you to the stadium inside the state security. Oh, My gosh.
Bobby Bones
Or it's like everybody stands up on a line outside. It's like, all right, everybody take one step forward. Kevin, not you. You three come. And he just has to sit out there. Yeah, that's tough. We will figure it out. Thank you for your input. If it's up to you, though, and we don't get to doing a game, Kevin will be eliminated based on Amy's vote. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Amy
No, you said kick out.
Bobby Bones
Kick out, Kevin.
Amy
No, this was. I said I'm part of this at all.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I got the best idea out of all that crap. Go. Eddie's gonna be at a disadvantage with his broken arm. It's his own fault. It's. You're not included. But it's the three dudes, right? Are you drunk by any chance?
Eddie
No, but.
Bobby Bones
Okay, it's four dudes. Okay. They all go stand down here in the street. Okay. You're gonna drop three tickets from the balcony digital. Well, I mean, just make free tickets. Got it. And whoever grabs them goes to bull.
Eddie
Whoever grabs them.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. You're at a disadvantage. You have one arm. Good luck. He wants you to. Ray doesn't want you to be able to go. Would you find Joy if Eddie couldn't go? Well, Ed, Cause Reed's gonna video Kevin. Seems like he's done a lot for this. Mike is your right hand guy. Eddie's one handed. Eddie, you're out, buddy. Let's Reed get a video. Amy gave the greatest point. Is that not a YouTube video? Just doing. Oh, you mean with the phone and the table?
Eddie
What is he gonna do? Anyone can do that. I can do that with my left hand. Sure I can.
Amy
Oh, yeah, we forget Eddie's like the video guy here.
Eddie
Yeah, I can video.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Thank you, everybody for your input. It just got murkier.
Amy
Nobody else has ever been to the Super Bowl. I don't. All these people just. You okay.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
Because that would help.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Or if somebody's favorite team, that would help. But then we'd have three for two tickets. That would just be it. Okay, cool. Bobby bone show. Bonehead. Story of the day. This story comes to us from Florida. A woman was in a car when it got pulled over, and she had a bag that said, definitely not. A bag of drugs. Definitely not. And the police officer said, hey, what's in the bag? She said got nervous and was like, let me see the bag full of drugs.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
I would've never thought that. I would've thought definitely it wasn't a bag of drugs.
Eddie
That's what it said on there.
Bobby Bones
I mean, if she took time to put a label maker on it or Sharpie it, Hey, I can't believe the cop didn't give her that respect. Any idea what kind of drugs? All sorts of drugs. Definitely not all sorts of drugs.
Amy
Thinking she was on them.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, probably. Just don't write anything on the bag of drugs.
Amy
Like, why would you do that?
Bobby Bones
Okay, I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day. Eddie, you're up.
Eddie
It's that time of the year again where I have to do this. I have to remind all of our listeners that Raymundo is not Eddie and I am not Raymundo.
Bobby Bones
Because.
Eddie
Because everywhere on social media, they're like. They talk about me, but they say, oh, my gosh, Raymundo did this, Raymundo did that. Oh, I hope Raymundo's arm is okay. I am not Raymundo.
Bobby Bones
Why do they think you two are each other?
Eddie
Because Ray got a 23 in me a long time ago and said he was like 001 Hispanic and he wanted to change his whole identity to Raymundo the hispanic because he has.001 hispanic in him. I am fully Hispanic.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Like, my name is Eduardo, and people confuse us, and it frustrates me. And I have to set the record straight. I am not Ray.
Bobby Bones
Would you. Would you say Ray is culturally appropriating?
Eddie
What does that mean? What does that mean, Raymond?
Bobby Bones
No. People do think you're Mexican, buddy. And you're not. You're as white as could be. You're as Midwestern Michigan as could be. Tan, though. And then also, my hand. Doesn't mean you can. Okay, Right. People always think, my dad's from Mexico, too. He's really, really dark. But he has about the same probably amount of Mexican in him as I do in me. But your name is also not Raymundo. It's. It's just. It's Raymond. Sister's name is Maria.
Eddie
Oh, I didn't know.
Bobby Bones
I mean, you know what? That is a wrinkle I was not expecting.
Eddie
I didn't realize that.
Bobby Bones
Right. Your sister's name's Maria. Yeah. And my name's Raymundo. It's not. You made Raymundo up, but Maria's giving.
Amy
Him a little bit of credit.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. A little bit of cred. And then he goes, I do like chips and queso. Well, Ray, that doesn't count. And you're 23. Andme. What percentage did it say that you were Hispanic, Mexican, or. It was in the category of less than 2%, which was a whole smorgasbord of the different countries and areas of the entire planet. And one of those areas was the Spain and also in the Southern America area. And so you just decided to change your name to Raymundo to reflect that heritage because you're proud of that. Less than 2%. Yeah, that. And I mean, yeah, I've never really even knew that. So I was. Yes, I was excited. Ray's not Latino. Mexican Hispanic.
Eddie
He's not. He's a white dude.
Bobby Bones
Spanish, nothing. White as could be. Yeah. But his sister's Maria and that's pretty good. And studied Spanish in college. We had to get two years of Spanish at Texas State.
Eddie
I didn't realize that either.
Bobby Bones
Eddie is Eduardo. He is Mexican.
Eddie
Yep.
Bobby Bones
Ray is Raymond. He is Caucasian. Not that it matters, but just to clear up some confusion, I just feel.
Eddie
Like I have to do it every. Every year because people forget.
Bobby Bones
I even forget. So I'm glad you did that. Okay, that's it. We're done. We will see you tomorrow. Goodbye, friends. Mr. Bobby Bones.
