The episode opens with Bobby Bones, Amy, Lunchbox, and Eddie delving into the pervasive culture of tipping in America. The conversation highlights the frustration with the expectation to tip in various service industries, comparing it to practices in Europe where tipping is less obligatory.

• Eddie's Frustration:
  “Tipping is just annoying. It's one of the dumbest things we do.” (04:16)

• Bobby's Insight:
  “Tipping doesn’t affect the restaurant’s profit. They get none of it.” (05:07)

The hosts discuss the systemic reliance on tips to supplement workers' incomes, questioning why tipping remains entrenched in American society despite its drawbacks for both customers and service providers.

• Connection to Developmental Advantages:
  Bobby references Malcolm Gladwell’s Outliers, explaining how being born earlier in the year can provide advantages in youth sports and educational settings, contributing to long-term success.

3. Modern Phone Usage Among Teens

A discussion unfolds about the latest study suggesting that having a smartphone at a young age (as early as 11) may have beneficial effects on mental health, contrary to popular belief.

  “He starts promising things like a purse and a G-Wagon, then suddenly his number is out of service and his Instagram is deleted.” (24:39)

6. Q&A with Dr. Josie: Pet Health and Behavior

Dr. Josie, Bobby's veterinarian and podcast host of "In the Vet’s Office," answers several listener questions about pet care, emergencies, and behavior.

a. Foods Pets Should Avoid

• Dangerous Foods:
  "Garlic, onions, chocolate, grapes, raisins, and windshield wiper fluid are all harmful to dogs." (34:09)

• Emergency Response:
  “If your dog eats something toxic, you can induce vomiting with hydrogen peroxide or contact the ASPCA Poison Control Hotline.” (35:07)

b. Administering Medication

• Pill Administration Tips:
  “Pill pockets are great for disguising pills. Alternatively, small amounts of cheese or tuna juice can help.” (36:35)

• Anxiety Medications for Pets:
  “Avoid human medications. There are specific CBD chews and prescription options for pets.” (37:21)

c. Emotional Support Animals Misconceptions

• Clarifying Roles:
  “Veterinarians don’t classify emotional support animals. Only human doctors can diagnose the need and provide the necessary documentation.” (38:13)

d. Pet Behavior Problems

• Prevalence and Solutions:
  “More than 99% of U.S. dogs exhibit some behavioral issues, often due to lack of structure and boundaries. Positive reinforcement methods, like citronella collars, are recommended over negative reinforcement.” (45:40)

I don't subscribe to that and just be able to get a full night's sleep, even a great night's sleep, which I had a good night's sleep last night. I woke up twice. That's as an A plus night. So I woke up at like 1:15. Now, I didn't get up and eat. If I wake up hard, I get up and just eat. But I Woke up twice. 10 minutes, 15 minutes. I would unsubscribe from that time. That nighttime anxiety type stuff. You.

[Amy]

I'll unsubscribe from my period.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, well, that's. That's dicey because you still said you may want to have a baby.

[Amy]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

And if you do that, there's no baby.

[Amy]

All right.

[Lunchbox]

Like, for sure.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I'm not saying change it. I'm just reminding you of what you said.

[Amy]

Good point. But I don't really know that I want that. I mean, I think I do. When I see little babies, I'm like, oh, my gosh.

[Bobby Bones]

They're not subscribed for.

[Amy]

I want the baby. Because it's not. It's not real. I just am over it. It's probably. Can I unsubscribe from.

[Bobby Bones]

You can unscrew from a period. I'll be just laying out something you'd said in the past.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

There.

[Amy]

I'm gonna. I'm unsubscribe from my hormones.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, then you're gonna get a beard.

[Amy]

Can I. Oh, that'd be cool. Okay, let me think on this.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Eddie, waking up early.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, man, I would in a heartbeat hit that button.

[Lunchbox]

Never wake up early again.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that sucks. Lunchbox.

[Amy]

But work, job.

[Lunchbox]

We have a job period, too. Like, we're in a. What do you call it? A vacuum.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, we're in a vacuum.

[Bobby Bones]

Nothing else is affected. Just a vacuum. It's the only thing. Lunchbox.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I'd like to unsubscribe from tipping. I mean, tipping is just annoying. It's stupid. It's one of the dumbest things we do.

[Amy]

And so you'd rather than have a fair wage from the get go.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You can unsubscribe from tipping, though, right now.

[Amy]

Yeah. Don't go to places where you have.

[Bobby Bones]

To tip or just don't.

[Lunchbox]

Just don't tip.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, you Literally could. Well, I. We can't do ours. Like, Amy can't not have a period. I am battling it. I can't just choose not to. Eddie can just choose. You know, he can't. He has to show up to work, get fired. Like, you can go. I'm not suggesting it. I don't think it could just not do it.

[Eddie]

They do need to get paid. That's the problem is I don't think it's my responsibility to pay that person, though. That's just. It's just so annoying.

[Bobby Bones]

Your bill, though, is going to be higher.

[Eddie]

That's fine.

[Bobby Bones]

And in the end you're.

[Amy]

But why is that fine? If it's the same money, there's extra work.

[Bobby Bones]

If it's the same money, why to you doesn't matter how they get it?

[Eddie]

Well, I think because maybe the restaurant should pay them. I mean, right.

[Bobby Bones]

Which is going to be the bill. It's going to raise the bill of everything.

[Eddie]

Right. I don't know how a restaurant works, but I feel like they do that so they can have better profit margins.

[Bobby Bones]

Tipping doesn't affect the restaurant's profit. They get none of it.

[Eddie]

Right. That's what I mean. That's why they want you to tip. So they don't have to worry about that.

[Bobby Bones]

Of course. But what they would do is raise the prices of everything, which would put them at the same profit margin they are now. But it would just be more expensive.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I don't know. I don't know how it works. But over in Europe, you don't tip. Right? That's what they tell me in Europe.

[Bobby Bones]

They two things. One, they don't take your card, they bring you the thing. And that happens here sometimes, which makes sense that you do that here too. And two, there's tipping. It's just very different. Mostly you only leave cash on the table if you have any. But the culture isn't, you must tip 20% because it's built in and you see it on there. It's built in. Just add it. So it's there. You just aren't choosing to do it.

[Eddie]

So why do we do it this way in America?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know why. Tipping is different here. And I think tipping culture is out of control, where everybody wants to tip for everything, but also think you can control what's out of control. And if there are things where you're like, well, this isn't really a tipping type place, you don't have to tip.

[Eddie]

Yeah. I mean, everyone wants to tip.

[Bobby Bones]

You would like tips. You ask for Tips on the show.

[Eddie]

Well, yeah. If we're going to be tipping, why not tip us? We are amazing. Like we provide.

[Bobby Bones]

Don't put me in yours. I want to be part of we but this show.

[Eddie]

So that's we.

[Bobby Bones]

But you're not doing a service, you're getting it. You're actually getting fully paid for your.

[Eddie]

I understand. So are a lot of people. They get fully paid and then we still tip them.

[Bobby Bones]

I would say most jobs that ask for tips aren't jobs with full benefits. Aren't jobs that offer 401k jobs. So it's, it's a bit different because.

[Eddie]

Like a repair man comes to your house, you're supposed to tip them?

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Eddie]

A delivery driver.

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Yeah. Depending what they're delivering. Not Amazon or anything. Cause I don't ever see them. They just throw stuff on the portal.

[Amy]

Right, right, right.

[Eddie]

That's interesting.

[Amy]

I had a mattress delivered the other day.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, like that. And I tip them mostly. So I tip them at the beginning so they don't break stuff. So they're more cautious with it.

[Lunchbox]

Do bartenders make less like servers do because they make bank?

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, for the most part. They don't get a full normal hour wage.

[Lunchbox]

I mean one.

[Bobby Bones]

But if they made bank bank, then people would be leaving their normal jobs, nine to five jobs to do bartending. They don't make bank, they make.

[Lunchbox]

I don't think people know.

[Bobby Bones]

I think people know cuz most people have done it. At some point you have to work.

[Amy]

Like it's just the lifestyle hours.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it's the lifestyle. It's the odd hours. It's working till 2 or 3am on your feet. It's being on Broadway, it's being on, you know, the strip in Vegas. I mean they make a great living.

[Bobby Bones]

You think they make more than you? They do not.

[Amy]

They.

[Bobby Bones]

No, they do not make more than you.

[Eddie]

Dude, those Vegas.

[Bobby Bones]

In Vegas, okay, you could pick like the top five and go. Yeah, but I'm talking about generally speaking, 88% of them do not make close to what you make. Because they have a lot of cash does not mean you're rich.

[Lunchbox]

Straight cash.

[Eddie]

Straight cash. No report to the irs.

[Lunchbox]

They wads of bills after the night's.

[Bobby Bones]

And that's why you think they're rich. And bartenders do make a good living for the that time of their life for the most part. There's a reason bartenders are young. Yeah, for the most part too.

[Eddie]

Yeah. But like I look at Vegas and you go to Vegas and there's some like bartenders have been doing it for 30 years and I'm like, dang, they must be making just because. Or a waiter or waitress. Like, you know, it would be a great to be a waiter or waitress is in an airport you make so much money because it's always busy. It's always busy. There's no off days.

[Bobby Bones]

I would not want to work in the airport.

[Lunchbox]

I think getting into the airport would be tough every day and people are.

[Bobby Bones]

In a hurry and they're not tipping much and they're by themselves. An airport would be miserable.

[Eddie]

I would love to hear from waiter or waitress that works in the airport because they, they, I, I look at those restaurants and there's people always there.

[Bobby Bones]

In Vegas, an average bartender salary, including tips, can range from 47,000 to 65,000 on the high end per year. Oh.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, maybe not. Maybe we don't do that.

[Bobby Bones]

I think you just see the flash but don't have to see the substance.

[Eddie]

Yeah, that cash, man. When I worked at Jason's Deli, I'm telling you, when I get those cash tips, it was like so much better than when they would do it on the credit card.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, yeah, because credit card you have to report.

[Eddie]

Exactly.

[Bobby Bones]

Although when I waited tables, I reported everything.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, of course.

[Bobby Bones]

Every twice. Sometimes I over reported, oh, good for you. Yeah, yeah. Sometimes I was like, just for fun, I'd report somebody just to pay some extra taxes. When your child is born could have a profound impact on their future health and wealth. So this is from the New York Post, and so I'll read you this. I've read books that are similar, but they're finding their person's date of conception or birth may impact the rest of their lives, from their weight to their chances of becoming a star athlete. A recent study from the University of Tokyo, where research found a person's metabolism could vary depending on when they were conceived. That's what this is about. The data show that those conceived during the colder months, October 17 through April 15, have more active brown fat, adipose tissue, a type of fat that burns calories to keep us warm and to help us regulate blood sugar. Babies born during these months were also found to have a lower bmi, less fat accumulation around the organs, and increased energy expenditure. This is supported by previous research which they did on animals before humans. They're not having to cut into the humans, by the way. They just did it. Some of the times you do animals because you have to like put stuff on them or cut them.

[Amy]

Is it because the moms are pregnant during cold Weather and cold can help. Well, they say like cold plunging cold therapy will help you produce brown fat.

[Bobby Bones]

The study also aligns with decades of research showing that when a child is conceived and born can impact their health and lifestyle outcomes. Now this is. There's a whole chapter in outliers about this and how most athletes that are world class were born in like this one range of the year, not all, but most. Because when they're young, because of where their birthday falls, they're the oldest in their category. And when you're young, eight months is a significant difference in life. If you're a four year old who's eight months older than the other four year olds and you turn five, it's a such a difference that you're physically developed in a way that the other kids aren't, even though you're in the same category, which then allows you to make all stars, which then gives you more training and you're around other better kids playing, which overall through life helps you. So the month you're born.

[Lunchbox]

And it is weird too though that like even like just sports all the way through high school is all about just grade.

[Bobby Bones]

Some parents will hold their kids back for that simple reason of one year because they can still play sports and be older and be better at sports. So it also helps where kids are born, how smart, how smart they're perceived to be because they have matured even the same grade, being seven, eight months older, their brain has matured and they're put in gifted, talented classes because they're thought to be smarter. They're not, they're just born in a better category of the same category. So you're putting gift and talented. You, you get access to all the extra stuff. Next thing you know, you had the benefit of being born in those few months and all those years of being gifted with extra resources for the most part only because your brain was a little more mature when you were young.

[Lunchbox]

That's so true.

[Bobby Bones]

It was wild.

[Lunchbox]

And what's outlier? Is that a book? Malcolm Gladwell, Is that the guy you met?

[Amy]

It is an interview with him, right?

[Bobby Bones]

No, he asked me to do a podcast for him. I met with him.

[Lunchbox]

Crazy hair.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And so it's just developmental advantages.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I mean there's a lot of holding back and a lot of holding back for sports reasons. A lot of. I think now too that you mentioned the, the whole, you know, brain maturity, like, I think there's a lot of holding back for that too.

[Eddie]

But isn't it crazy they, they hold them back for sports. But when you talk like Bobby, you talked to a lot of professional athletes. Most of them, when they're really good, they play up. They play older kids because they're so good and they dominate at such a young age. They're playing with older kids. So I it weird that parents hold their kid back for sports because it's like when you talk to these athletes that are really amazing, they're playing two or three years older than they usually are. So it just seems counterintuitive.

[Bobby Bones]

Good try at that word. But I would say that. No, it works. It works. But I would say the difference is most professional athletes are in that 1% anyway. Even the 0.01% that you're talking about. Professional athletes that make millions of dollars versus kids who are borderline scholarship athletes, which are also so rare. But those are mostly who's affected by the holding back. Because there is a point where everything evens out at 18, 19, 20, 21, 22 years old, where you don't continue on to be a great athlete at 25 because you had an eight month advantage. But because of all the extra resources you're getting all through your elementary high school days. Yeah, that could be enough to get a D2 scholarship. That could be enough. But yeah, you get more training, obviously you're going to be better. But yes, but those are like, look at Cooper flag. He played for Duke this year. He should have been a high school senior. He jumped college early. Like he was. He had been a high school senior this year. But he's like, I'm going to go ahead and go earlier, reclassify himself. And he was a freshman at Duke player of the year, but he was 17 for most of the year. Turns 18, he's a big girl. That's a 0.0001 type person. That's like a bartender who makes $300,000 a year.

[Eddie]

And he has a twin brother that's just kind of like, okay, well he's.

[Bobby Bones]

Still in high school.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but he's going to like some small college. Like it's like, man, that's crazy, man.

[Bobby Bones]

It was Maine he was going to. But that's also not just okay. That's a, that's a scholarship athlete. But we're just comparing him to his brother.

[Eddie]

I'm just saying I feel bad. Like when you're a twin, it's like your brother's a superstar and you're like, man, I'm just, I just see, those.

[Lunchbox]

Are the cards, man.

[Eddie]

I know. Like, is there bitterness? Do you think there's bitterness?

[Bobby Bones]

I think there's probably a bit of resentment, but really nowhere to place it. So even if it's healthy, there's probably resentment in how come I didn't get this? I mean, look at ray. His brother's 6 inches taller than he is. They're twins. Ray had to be like, what the crap? And even though he's not, there had to be a part of his life where it's like, how come he got to be tall and be an athlete and we're twins. We came out of the same badge, and here we are, same back.

[Eddie]

Did you just say that?

[Lunchbox]

Same scientific. Literally, that's scientific.

[Amy]

Yeah. Okay. Yeah. But aren't you also happy for your brother?

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

Two things can be true.

[Amy]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

I don't think you're happy for your brother till later in life.

[Amy]

What, your brother's like, going to Duke and player of the Year or something? Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

I think after they're older and, like, everyone's kind of more established with what they do, it's just like, yeah, I'm happy for him. But while it's happening, I think there's.

[Bobby Bones]

A lot of, like, oh, two things can be true. I bet he's happy for his brother because his brother can make millions of dollars and he's going to set him up better, too. Yeah.

[Eddie]

You think his brother takes care of him.

[Bobby Bones]

And even. Let's say he doesn't even fully take care of him. Like, I just give money. It's. Let's say he plays at Maine or whatever college. He plays basketball. Then he can go be a part of his brother's team. Like, he can be part of his, like, management team or he can, like, work with his. There are many avenues. Yeah, but both can be true. You can have resentment and really not know where to place it because you haven't fully discovered why you have it. You kind of know, but you don't. And you're not mad at anybody except nature. And what's nature care?

[Lunchbox]

Right. So nature don't care.

[Bobby Bones]

Nature doesn't know what caring is.

[Lunchbox]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Phones may actually be good for teens. Mental health.

[Lunchbox]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

I could not subscribe to clickbait.

[Eddie]

Clickbait. This ain't real.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm in.

[Amy]

I love who put this out? Phones of America.

[Eddie]

IPhone.com.

[Bobby Bones]

Nope. Having a phone may not be as bad for tweens and young teens as we thought. The study involving over 15. You have to listen, though, before you, like, comment on stuff. We just have closed minds now. What's a tween a teenage, a 12, like a 10, 11, 12 year old.

[Lunchbox]

Got it.

[Bobby Bones]

And a teen.

[Lunchbox]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

So they did over 150011 to 13 year olds. And they find that those who have their own phone reported better results in nearly every measure of being tested. As far as kids who don't when it comes to learning and memorization. Now, there were other things that factored in on the negative side, which is things we know about cyberbullying. But kids who had their own points scored better than kids who don't in every measure. Just about. Except for a little bit of the culture stuff.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, I get that, like it's pretty cool that our kids kind of, you know, they have a question about anything like who scored the most touchdowns last year and they can literally find out in, you know, two minutes.

[Bobby Bones]

Kids who have their own phone are less likely to report depression, anxiety symptoms. They also have higher self esteem. Kids who with phones are more likely to spend more time with friends in person, even if they're both on their phone.

[Amy]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, they do say there are some. I mean, there are negatives too. They list those where tweens that have phones get 8.6 hours of sleep versus 9.3 hours for kids who don't sleep with devices. So they are getting a little less sleep. The study concludes that letting kids have their own phone as young as 11 with restrictions may actually be good for their mental health, as the phone isn't the problem, it's what kids are doing with them that can be bad for their mental health.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

We do not find evidence that smartphone ownership is harmful to children. University of South Florida with a study restrictions.

[Amy]

I think that, yeah, my son has less anxiety because of life360 because he can like see where everyone is at every moment. Like, that helps him. That helps him to know where people are. And he loves music and he's got music on his phone. Music helps calm him. But other than that, he doesn't have much else going on on his phone.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go. But it's still helping him. And that's the point. And that's my point. You guys, get off me.

[Amy]

He's 14, y'all. And we have. He'll be 15 this summer. And we have avoided the. Any other social media stuff, even though all of his friends have it. Occasionally he brings it up, but then I just remind him, like, I can't remember what I. I mean, obviously he's been concerned with China and TikTok. And I think at one point when he wanted Snapchat, I was like, well, that's Russia. And he's like, oh well, never mind, I don't want that. So like he steers clear of it.

[Bobby Bones]

You just use other countries to keep him from everything.

[Amy]

Yeah, because he's like candy.

[Bobby Bones]

Taiwan research discovered what the perfect day is. This is kind of dumb, but it's not. It's not what would be your fantasy perfect day. Of all the things that you would do if you could do it. Like, you don't get to pick go to a Razorback game, Super Bowl. So the perfect day researchers from the University of British Columbia, they set to find the answer by studying data with the American time use survey. Participants were asked how much time they devoted to 100 different activities including time with family, friends, doom scrolling exercise and so on. So good and bad results were tabulated. This is what a perfect day would be. Six hours of quality time with the family. That seems like way too much.

[Amy]

Like broken up.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, broken up.

[Amy]

Yeah. Okay.

[Lunchbox]

That's pretty good.

[Bobby Bones]

Two hours with friends.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Five hours socializing. And those could probably mix with the other with the two hours of friends, two hours of exercise, one. One hour of eating and drinking, a six hour workday with a 15 minute commute and one hour of screen time. Yeah, right. That's the only one that sets with me wrong.

[Lunchbox]

You're like, no way.

[Bobby Bones]

This adds up to still only 19 and a half hours, which just leaves 14 or excuse me, four and a half hours for sleep.

[Amy]

But that's not enough sleep.

[Eddie]

Yeah, I need more sleep.

[Amy]

My perfect day needs a way more sleep than that.

[Lunchbox]

But if it's only one day, really, you don't need sleep, right?

[Bobby Bones]

I just need more screen time. That's all I need.

[Lunchbox]

One hour.

[Bobby Bones]

What?

[Lunchbox]

You have one hour?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Just one hour?

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Like I'm willing to give up friends and family as long as I can have more screen time.

[Amy]

There's nothing in there about cuddling with your cat.

[Lunchbox]

That's social time.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, it's your friends, a couple other things. Eddie is the one who brought this to my attention. Do you want to talk about what? The. The.

[Amy]

Oh, great. Is it me?

[Lunchbox]

The what?

[Bobby Bones]

You? Just you and lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

Oh. I mean, I just think that when we brought it up, Amy was like, whoa, whoa, we need to circle back on this.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, because, yeah, he thinks you guys have some sort of thing going on.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, there's a thing. There's definitely that thing going on. I don't know what it is.

[Amy]

I don't know what you.

[Eddie]

I don't even understand what you mean by that.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

He's not saying you guys are, like, making out or anything. There's something. I would agree. There's something weird happening.

[Lunchbox]

Like, Amy always has.

[Amy]

Like, I don't always have his back.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I don't. Even when he's, like, way wrong. And like.

[Amy]

Like, you can't use words like always because that's not fact.

[Bobby Bones]

Almost every single time.

[Amy]

Almost every time we in therapy with almost. But you can't say, yes, but he'll.

[Bobby Bones]

Be like, I hate women. And I was like, he's got a point. We're like, why are you. Yes, significantly.

[Lunchbox]

What is it?

[Bobby Bones]

What. What's happening?

[Amy]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Did he pay you? Is there some sort of game you guys are playing? He pull you out?

[Lunchbox]

Like, hey, cheer for me during game?

[Eddie]

I. I don't understand what you guys mean.

[Amy]

Oh, well, like, if it's during game stuff, it's like you naturally gravitate towards the person that's not winning all the time. Like, Eddie wins all the time. So that might be.

[Eddie]

You can't say that. You can't say all the time.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, that's right.

[Bobby Bones]

You can't say that.

[Amy]

Thank you, lunchbox.

[Bobby Bones]

We don't see. There she goes again. My smart.

[Amy]

Listen.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, go ahead.

[Amy]

Let me say this. I think that oftentimes Eddie is winning, and then naturally we get annoyed, so we pick, pick, pick. But that would be happening if I was winning all the time.

[Bobby Bones]

I haven't noticed it in games, though. It's not games, Mike. Have you noticed it? I see it more in, like, Amy trying to keep the peace. Sometimes she, like, disarms him a little bit by taking his side. She, like, takes aside, though, in, like, when he's ridiculous. Yeah. And we're like, wait, why are you.

[Amy]

Yeah, you're welcome. I'm keeping the peace. I'm disarming.

[Bobby Bones]

Sometimes the peace doesn't need to be kept if part of the argument is ridiculous.

[Amy]

Well, can you bring this up in the moment when it happens? Because I do.

[Bobby Bones]

I know, because I've done that before. And then you get mad at me.

[Amy]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

I'd be like, amy, are you okay? And she's like, yeah, no, no, no, no.

[Amy]

That's not what I'm asking. Say, Amy, you're doing that thing where you're like, we did it last time.

[Bobby Bones]

We get sidetracked. Yes, we did it already once.

[Lunchbox]

We did it last time. And you were like, no, that's not true.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's circle back.

[Amy]

Well, if we. Let's start keeping record of it so that I'LL know. I like data.

[Lunchbox]

We get our stats guided.

[Bobby Bones]

It just kind of sidetracks the whole thing we're doing. If we're like. It does.

[Amy]

I sidetrack what you're doing?

[Bobby Bones]

If we call and go, hey, you're doing that thing, then we're not talking about the thing we were originally talking.

[Amy]

Oh, that will sidetrack it. Yes, yes, yes. I see what you mean. I thought you meant, like, by me taking his side for whatever reason. I'm sidetracking. I'm like, what?

[Bobby Bones]

Who got catfished in your.

[Amy]

My friend cat.

[Lunchbox]

Cat got catfish.

[Amy]

Her cat got catfished.

[Bobby Bones]

I thought she was married.

[Amy]

There's two cats.

[Bobby Bones]

Got it.

So.

So when you say cuddle with your.

[Amy]

Cat, I mean Maggie. My Maggie.

[Bobby Bones]

Got it. Okay. Because we don't know what's happening over there. Go ahead.

[Amy]

So she got on a dating app for the first time ever. And within her first, like two hours on this app, she gets this guy. And it's like a reputable one. Like, this is a good app. And this hot guy hits her up and she's really pretty. And they start talking.

[Bobby Bones]

Was he too hot? Because was he too hot?

[Amy]

She stated some hot guys. So no, I didn't. I wasn't like, oh. But what was confusing to me because.

[Bobby Bones]

That happens a lot where it's like an old lady and then Dirk Bentley's being, what's up? You're like, well, in your life, you're not.

[Amy]

No, I would say this match. This matches. So they start talking and he starts promising her, like things like a purse and hey, you can in these certain shoes. I mean. And she's not even asking for it, but she's like, this is really weird. But she's like, is this what the dating apps are like? And I was like, no. And I guess he starts to say that he has this G wagon and like, you can drive it anytime you want. And just like that stuff was sort of a red.

[Bobby Bones]

This is the guy you were with?

[Eddie]

That's what.

[Amy]

No, but I. She starts talking with him and they even have a phone call. And she said the phone was like, cutting out and it was hard to hear him. And they exchange, like, they start dming on Instagram, they're texting, I mean, for like a full day. And then all of a sudden he just like, poof. Goes dark. But she was getting really excited to like, meet him. Like they were going to go out and then he's like, non existent. Like, the number she texts is like, this is no longer in service. The instagram he had with, like, 12,000 followers. And all this stuff, like, gone.

[Bobby Bones]

So I. Instagram's gone too.

[Amy]

The Instagram is gone. So I send the images to Mike D. That she sent me of him, and Mike reverse images, whatever he does. And these images are stolen, but from a legit model, an Italian model.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, he's really good looking.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, there's. Okay. So what did she give him then?

[Amy]

Well, that's what I asked her. I said, yeah, I need you to be very honest with me right now. What did you give him? Because he's only gonna go dark once he's gotten what he needs. Like, what does he have access to?

[Bobby Bones]

Because he has her on the hook right now. Yeah, because, like, when he's talking to her and he has her and they're talking and they're texting.

[Amy]

Yeah, I'm like, when you made the phone call, like, what did you dial into? Like, did he. Is he stealing your voice? Like, did you click any links? And she's like, no, I swear I didn't click any links. She goes, he did ask for lingerie pictures. She goes, But I said, I. We. I'm not gonna do that. We're not in a relationship. Like, you're not my boyfriend. Like, we. Like, she was sort of. She's like, I kind of left it lingering, like, if we were dating, because, like, maybe if you wanted to date. But she did. She swears she didn't send anything like that. And I said, okay, well, maybe he got in trouble with somebody else and he had to disappear. Because I'm sure it's like a net, like, they cast it out wide. But it was on that. That Raya one, that website, the app, which. I didn't think scammers were in there.

[Bobby Bones]

You have to be allowed in that. They've given a lot of. It's been a lot more open.

[Amy]

Well, obviously she's on it, which, no offense to her, but she's not.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I'm not talking about her. I'm talking about, like, scammer. I'm talking about, like, it's probably a little easier if you're using the right strategy to get on.

[Amy]

Right. But what I meant by that is, like, it used to be mostly for, like, you had to be in the. Like a celebrity or in the arts or creative or something like that. And she's not in any of that space, but I guess she got invited in somehow. And, man, she was so excited about this guy. Like, and now she's like, well, so much for the apps. Like that. Was my first time ever doing it. And I got got.

[Bobby Bones]

My guess would be that once they get the pictures, they then kind of blackmail you for money. Like they want to get naked pictures of you.

[Amy]

That's what it's like.

[Bobby Bones]

And then once they're like, you're talking and they're like, yeah, I'll send you one in my. And then you're like, well, I got to put this picture of you. I'll put it online if you don't Send me like 500 bucks in Bitcoin. I would think that's probably the scam. And he probably was able to hack or get into somebody's Instagram through some kind of catfish thing and just flips an account. But then you don't keep the blue check mark. You have a blue check mark. It's a 12,000 followers.

[Amy]

Yeah, I don't know. I have to ask her about the blue check mark, but she said the 12,000. Like, seems so legit. But the Italian model still has his Instagram up and I see it and.

[Bobby Bones]

He has a blue check.

[Amy]

But so I think they took like sometimes, you know how people take your images and they create an entire new account?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Oh, I'm sure that's what they did.

[Amy]

So, yeah, I think that's what happened. Which is just really sad that that was her first experience because now I think he's ruined it for her. And she's going to.

[Bobby Bones]

The old model didn't.

[Lunchbox]

No, the hacker.

[Amy]

Oh. But guess what? So since Mike D. Sent us the model, she DM'd the model. Cuz she's like, well, this guy's still hot. And if he's real. So she sent him a DM and she said, hey, just so you know, there's somebody using your pictures to catfish people. And like they. I was mentioning them, she's like, so, you know, so she's hoping that'll start dialogue. She goes, wouldn't this be the craziest story if I now start dating the Italian model because of the catfish guy?

[Eddie]

So she's irrational. Oh my goodness.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, that would be a good movie.

[Amy]

Yeah, But I mean, she doesn't really think that's gonna happen, but that would be cool.

[Eddie]

But she does really shoot your shot.

[Lunchbox]

Have you seen Tinder Swindler yet?

[Eddie]

Oh, man. Dude, it's so good.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it's beyond though. No, so I'm not going to spend time watching it. There are other things I need to keep up with the news.

[Amy]

Yeah, that is pretty.

[Eddie]

Whatever happened to that dude, man, I.

[Lunchbox]

Don'T know, I think he's. I mean he never got in trouble.

[Bobby Bones]

He still exists.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Okay. We're going to Dr. Josie. She has a podcast. Season three went up yesterday, called in the vet's office and Jason Tartek's our guest and we're going to talk animals in just a second. So we'll do a roll here, little mid roll and come back.

[Amy]

Show now, Dr. Josie.

[Bobby Bones]

Dr. Josie is my veterinarian. She also has a podcast called in the vet's office with Dr. Josie. I have five questions for you, Josie. We're going to start this with can you list me the Things that an animal cannot eat. If your dog does, it would go, dogs. If your dog eats it, you're in trouble. What are those things?

[Dr. Josie]

Garlic.

[Eddie]

Garlic?

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah. I wouldn't let them eat lots of garlic.

[Bobby Bones]

Lots or some. I didn't know garlic was dangerous.

[Dr. Josie]

I think if you're giving them, like, a little potato chip that has a flake of garlic on it, you're fine. But, like, a bulb of garlic, definitely not.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. That'll kill a dog.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah, it can be really bad.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Garlic. You mean to interrupt? Go ahead.

[Dr. Josie]

Onions.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Dr. Josie]

Of course. Chocolate. Grapes. Raisins.

[Bobby Bones]

Grapes.

[Dr. Josie]

Another big one that people don't know is windshield wiper fluid.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't often feed mine that. However, I did.

[Dr. Josie]

Dogs love windshield wiper fluid.

[Bobby Bones]

Dogs love antifreeze.

[Dr. Josie]

They think that's it. That's antifreeze?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Dr. Josie]

They think it tastes delicious.

[Bobby Bones]

It's sweet.

[Dr. Josie]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

And growing up, there'd be antifreeze, and dogs would lick the antifreeze, and you'd be like, oh, my God.

[Dr. Josie]

That's exactly it.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so put that on the list of things dogs can't eat. Number two, if your animal does eat something bad and you're not able to get to a vet, how can you induce vomiting to make sure they throw up that antifreeze or grape?

[Dr. Josie]

You can. Well, one thing you can do at home is give them hydrogen peroxide. I recommend, though, if your dog's eating something, you're like, I don't really know about this. There is a 1-800-number you can call. It's the ASPCA Poison Control Hotline, if you will. And there is a toxicologist on staff 24 7. So you can call them and say, hey, my dog is eating X, Y, and Z. What do I do? And they'll tell you exactly what to do.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so let's say you don't have a phone. It's 1920. You say peroxide. We did that with our dog.

[Dr. Josie]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

We took, like. I don't know if it was gravy or something and mixed peroxide in because Eller had eaten a whole loaf of sourdough that hadn't been cooked yet. And that can really destroy a dog's stomach. She had jumped up, and so we did peroxide, and then we just walked her around until she vomited it up.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And so peroxide is the way, though. Will you guys do that in the office or do you have, like, an injection?

[Dr. Josie]

We don't. We have an injection that we can give them that makes them throw up really quickly as you know, because you walked Ella around for, like, an hour. It can take a long time for the hydrogen peroxide to work, and sometimes it doesn't work at all. So. But it is something that you can do. I would call your vet, any vet. You don't have to see them. I guess if you don't have a phone. Everyone has a phone, though. Call your vet and figure out how much to give.

[Bobby Bones]

How much do you just. But if people. They're like, I don't have a vet. How much do they give them? Because we gave her, like, a couple bottle caps full.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah, a couple.

[Bobby Bones]

We had to mix it with something that tastes good, too, because it doesn't taste good.

[Dr. Josie]

No, it doesn't. Yeah. You can mix it with, like, tuna juice or, you know, gravy, like you said, and it's a teaspoon per 10 pounds or so.

[Bobby Bones]

If you have an animal that won't swallow pills, best way to get them to swallow pills.

[Dr. Josie]

I really like pill pockets.

[Bobby Bones]

One of the greatest inventions. It's a printing press, the pill pocket.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah. I love a pill pocket.

[Bobby Bones]

Pill pocket. Amazing.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And so those are just a little. I don't even know what they are.

[Dr. Josie]

But they're like little treats. Yeah, Soft treats that you can stick a pill in, and then they love them, and they don't even know the pill's in there. But if you don't want to do pill pockets, I really. American Kraft Singles Cheese.

[Bobby Bones]

Cheese safe for dogs.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah, little amounts. I mean, I wouldn't feed them, like, a block of cheese a day, but if you need to give them a little cheese for a pill, that's great.

[Bobby Bones]

What about pets with anxiety? As in, I've had dogs that hate fireworks. Dogs now don't like fireworks or storms. Can they take any medication that people already have at home?

[Dr. Josie]

No, there's really no. This is a big thing, like, across the board, a lot of the human medications are really dangerous for our pets, so I would not recommend that. There are, like, some. And they're specifically for animals. CBD chews. We've got prescription medications that we can give them, but there's really no. I would be very careful with any human medications giving them to your pets.

[Amy]

What about vice versa? Can we take our pets? Great question.

[Bobby Bones]

She probably needs to say no to that, so I'll cover her on that one. What about, like, a Benadryl, which is over the counter? Is that generally safe or.

[Dr. Josie]

No, Benadryl is over the counter, and if you give the correct dose, it is safe. It doesn't really do a whole lot, though, for anxiety, I find.

[Bobby Bones]

And animals.

[Dr. Josie]

And animals.

[Bobby Bones]

What animals, in your opinion as a vet, should be emotional support animals, and then which ones are being faked by owners because they're like horses and birds and stuff like that?

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah, I don't know. That's a great question. And a slippery slope. I mean, yeah, there's like, someone that had a peacock as an emotional support animal.

[Bobby Bones]

That's bull crap, right?

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah. I mean, so people have a misconception that veterinarians have something to do with animals being emotional support animals.

[Bobby Bones]

Don't you classify them? Don't you give them the stamp?

[Dr. Josie]

I do not. It's all human doctors. So a human doctor has to diagnose the person with a mental health condition. Anxiety, depression, ptsd. And then from there, they have to write a letter, the doctor does, saying they need an emotional support animal for their disorder, and then they can get any animal they want for that to fulfill that. So veterinarians are completely out of it.

[Bobby Bones]

Didn't you guys think vets were the ones doing that?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

No.

[Dr. Josie]

Oh, you didn't?

[Amy]

Well, yeah, I guess I just didn't think they were qualified to decide that for a human.

[Bobby Bones]

I've never. I've never considered it because all my animals are out of control. I'd never take them on an airplane. Yeah, it'd be a mess. So I just thought that the vets had to be like, yep, that's a good dog, and, yep, that's it.

[Dr. Josie]

Yep, this is a good boy. He can go on the airplane.

[Bobby Bones]

What human foods can pets eat generally?

[Dr. Josie]

I guess I would start by saying, like, I like to limit the amount that they eat, and anything really high in fat, I avoid. So people like to feed them, like, meat. And if you're gonna feed meat, feed, like, a little bit of the white meat. I wouldn't feed, like, the skin or the dark meat, because anything high in fat can really cause their stomach to hurt. And then they can have, like, a slice of an apple, a piece of broccoli, a carrot. Those kind of fruits and vegetables, for the most part, are pretty safe, except for grapes.

[Amy]

Oh, okay. So avocado, because you're mentioning high in fat, and those are really high in fat. And some avocado fell off the counter the other day, and I let my dog eat it. And my daughter's friend was over, and she was like, can dogs have avocados? And I said, sure, why not? But I guess if it falls on the floor and it's a little bit. It's okay. But wouldn't feed on like a full avocado.

[Dr. Josie]

I would, yeah, definitely not feed them full avocado.

[Amy]

Oh, dang. That's good to know. I was like, yeah, no problem.

[Dr. Josie]

You're like, here, have some more.

[Bobby Bones]

You've had the first episode of your podcast, season three, Jason Tartixon.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Pretty good looking fella, huh?

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah, he's not ugly.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Did you follow the naming controversy?

[Dr. Josie]

I did. We had filmed this episode and then the whole naming controversy happened a couple days later.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, we're pretty vocal about it on this show. Oh, yeah, I don't know them. I have friends that know both of them really well, so they're like one Kevin Bacon away. So the story for those that did not know Jason Tartyk and Kaitlyn Bristow, they were from the Bachelor and they were together and they were gonna get married or, you know, whatever. And so they were engaged.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

She had shared. This is what I want to name my baby. And then after they break up, they've been broken up a couple years, he ended up naming a dog her dream baby name. And Teddy the dog already had a name though, so he had to change the name of the dog he adopted.

[Amy]

Cause he rescued it, right?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

What do you think? Do you have thoughts on that?

[Amy]

I.

[Dr. Josie]

Well, I saw him put up an Instagram story and he allowed all of the viewers to vote and Teddy got the most votes, so.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but you think he was going by voting or do you think he would just kind of. Cuz what I would do? I would. Strategically, this is how I'd manipulate it. I would say vote and then it wouldn't matter. I would just pick anyway.

[Amy]

I don't know.

[Dr. Josie]

But also, I think about my husband and I definitely talked to him about what I would want to name our babies and he has zero idea. Like, if I asked him, like, what do you want to. What do I want to name our kids? He'd be like, I don't know. So maybe he just forgot and thinks the name Teddy's cute.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm sure Jason's a great dude. I sided with Caitlin on this one specifically. Unless she did something to him that I don't know about. Then I'm like, I feel you, Jason. Like, go as hard as possible.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah, I guess we don't know what happened behind closed doors, but he seems very nice.

[Bobby Bones]

How's his dog? You met the dog, though?

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah. Dog is so sweet. Dog's amazing.

[Bobby Bones]

Just like, oh, Teddy, Teddy.

[Amy]

Like a Teddy bear.

[Dr. Josie]

Little Teddy. Teddy's a good dude.

[Bobby Bones]

So what's his story with animals? Like, what do you talk about in your podcast?

[Dr. Josie]

Well, we talked a lot about Teddy's backstory. Teddy was his owner, his previous owner. He was adopted through wags and walks. His previous owner was arrested and went to jail. We don't really know what for. We're gonna get to the bottom of it. Stay tuned. And then he was kind of put into almost like a foster care system for pets, because while humans, animals are technically the property of their owners. And so while he was going through the legal system and trying to figure out if he was gonna go to jail or not, that pet couldn't be given to another home because he was still, like, a legal property of that person. But now the guy's in jail and he's been picked up by the rescue.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang. When he gets out, do you put the dog in the middle adjacent and the convict. And go, go, which one? And they both yell, rain Gal. Teddy or whatever his name is.

[Dr. Josie]

It's like earbud.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. And see where the dog goes.

[Amy]

Well, yeah. Now I need to know why he's in jail, because then what kind of behavior is he? Like, what does he do when he gets out? Does he go break into Jason's house and get the dog?

[Bobby Bones]

That's a great. Amy's always worried about retaliation. She even found a way to get Jason retaliated against here.

[Amy]

Always.

[Dr. Josie]

Wow. Hopefully he's in there for a long, long time.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know.

[Amy]

And not for murder.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah. And not for murder.

[Bobby Bones]

So check out that episode. Her new season is out now. It's called in the vet's office with Dr. Josie. You've been to my house numerous times. The debate at my house is if I can fit through the dog door.

[Dr. Josie]

I saw this. I mean, you are in great shape. Thank you. Don't get me wrong.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you.

[Dr. Josie]

But that's a pretty small door. I don't. Bobby, I don't think so. Do you think so?

[Amy]

Even if he, like, turns, like, sideways.

[Bobby Bones]

I think I can. I have a massive head. I think if my heart will fit, if my head can get through and I can turn my shoulders, I think I can get through the dog door. The problem is, my wife has assured me that if I get stuck, she is not helping me out for at least an hour. Like, my punishment will be. I have to sit there, unable to get out for an hour before she does anything.

[Dr. Josie]

I love that.

[Bobby Bones]

And I'm not able to have my phone near me when I do it, so I can't call Eddie to come bail me out.

[Amy]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, those are the rules.

[Amy]

But I think you need to go in a little more prepared with no. Yeah. No shirt, no nothing. And, like, Vaseline or some sort of lubricant. And that way you can, like, you need to have a snack.

[Dr. Josie]

Bring a snack with you in case.

[Bobby Bones]

Water, Right? What would your bed be? Can I fit through my dog door?

[Dr. Josie]

I'm gonna. I'm gonna say no.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. I mean, mark her down as a hater. Hater number six. That would be Josie. There was a story, and I'm gonna run some of these by you. Having a pet makes you as happy as an extra $90,000 a year.

[Dr. Josie]

Your comments, I agree with that tenfold. I mean, I think my pets bring me so much joy every single day.

[Bobby Bones]

The story is pets are expensive, but a new study found they're worth it. Researchers in England looked at how much happier we are when we have a pet and they put a dollar amount on it. They say having a dog or a cat makes you as happy as you'd be earning an extra $90,000 a year.

[Dr. Josie]

I know that sounds crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

That sounds crazy.

[Dr. Josie]

People that don't have pets won't get it.

[Bobby Bones]

And people that don't have money are like, you're out of your mind to have a dog. But that's what I think of. Cause it's a long time I didn't have any money, and I'm like, 90,000. Like, I don't think having a sibling or a parent would be worth 90,000, but.

[Amy]

Okay, well, what a parent.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, when it comes to mine, that's a lot of money. When you don't have money, that's a lot of money.

[Amy]

I know, but that's a lot of money. Especially if it's a, you know, nurturing, secure parent. That'd be priceless.

[Lunchbox]

Well, yeah, that's fair.

[Dr. Josie]

Can't put a price tag on that, right?

[Bobby Bones]

My next story from Newsweek. More than 99% of U.S. dogs have behavior problems. 99%. As a veterinarian, what is your response to that?

[Dr. Josie]

I completely agree, sadly. And it's not that it's anything really bad. They're just. Dogs require so much structure, and we as their caregivers want to just give them love. And it's really hard for us to set boundaries with them and to say, like, no, this is wrong, or this is right, and to. And I also think we just, like, don't really know. Like, we don't have those. They don't teach you that in school? Like, how to parent your dog. And so, yes, I would say I'm not shocked to hear that number.

[Bobby Bones]

Our dogs are pretty good, except when people come over, they get very excited, but they bark at everybody. When they come to the door, we can't get them to stop. And I did see where you can put these shockers on them. Wherever they bark, you shock the out of them. How do you feel about those?

[Dr. Josie]

I try. That's called negative reinforcement.

[Bobby Bones]

I. I want it very negative. I mean, I want it so negative because they bark at everything.

[Dr. Josie]

I try not to do that. There is one collar that you can do that. When they bark, it releases citronella, which they don't like the smell of. At least releases, like, a little squirt of it. So rather than shocking them, it's like, oh, I don't like that smell. I'll stop doing this. So that's like, maybe a little happy medium for you.

[Amy]

And then your house smells like citronella.

[Dr. Josie]

And then you don't have any mosquitoes.

[Amy]

Yeah, I kind of like it.

[Bobby Bones]

99% though. That means only 1% of dog owners are doing the work to make sure they're adults. Are there ever dogs? Because some kids, some babies. I don't have kids. At least not yet. So parents will be like, yeah, this kid was never a problem. This baby never cried. Are there ever. Some dogs just come out and are awesome, I think.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah. Far and few between, but yeah, I'm sure. But think about it, like, 99% of kids at some point are acting up or, you know, doing things they shouldn't be doing. So it's not to say, like, the dogs are bad. It's just. Yeah, I mean, it's just, like, parenting stuff. Why do dogs eat poop More often than not? It's just like a weird behavioral thing. It's like a puppy or just a dog that likes to eat poop. It can mean that they have, like, a nutritional deficiency. What about a bulldog like Stanley?

[Bobby Bones]

Just putting it out there, but he does have a nutritional deficiency. A bad one.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah. Stanley, is. Is Stanley eating his own poop right now?

[Bobby Bones]

No, but I think I caught him a couple times, and he looks suspicious.

[Dr. Josie]

Okay. Stanley. Stanley just loves to eat everything.

[Bobby Bones]

Every meal. Looks like a pie eating contest to him. Every meal? Even just normal food?

[Dr. Josie]

Yes, yes. So I think he's doing that. Yes, he does have intestinal disease, which we're treating. But no, I think Stanley does that because he likes to eat.

[Bobby Bones]

And I'll be like, are you eating poop? And I'm like, you can tell?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

He's like, oh, it caught me. And he'd be able to back away from it. Okay, one more story from the New York Post. More people are choosing to have pets over children. Are you noticing this as a vet?

[Dr. Josie]

Oh, my gosh. For sure. Back in 2020, like, during the pandemic, I think that stats in the US were 70% of households had a pet. And now, more than ever, I am finding. What's it called? Dual income.

[Amy]

Yeah, Dinks.

[Dr. Josie]

Dinks, yeah. So no kids? Yes. Dinks are, like, my number one client. They have no income or they have income, they have no kids, and they have their pets, and they treat their pets like babies, and they feel very fulfilled. They're like, hey, maybe I don't need a kid because I feel so fulfilled by my pets.

[Bobby Bones]

When you were doing surgery or when you are doing surgery on an animal, do you have a certain kind of music you like to listen to?

[Dr. Josie]

That's a good question. I really will do whatever my nurses turn on. Really? Anything, as long as it's not like I don't like screamo. I had one nurse that would turn on screamo, like, raw, killing the dog.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, we're going in.

[Dr. Josie]

And I was like, I can't do that. She's like, this is very soothing for me. I'm like, that's great, but I cannot. So, no. Otherwise, I'm like. I like, like it all.

[Bobby Bones]

You ever had a pet escape mid appointment?

[Dr. Josie]

I have been in a clinic where the dog. I didn't. Wasn't my patient, but the pet was out for a walk in downtown Chicago, got off the leash and ran down Lakeshore Boulevard, got onto the highway, caught a Cubs game, caught a Cubs game, went to the Bulls, and then luckily did not get hit by a car. And we were able to get him back. But, yeah, talk about a terrible conversation with that owner.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you think pets ever fake symptoms for attention?

[Dr. Josie]

I don't. No, I don't. I think they're, like, pretty. I mean, that's the beauty of animals, right? They're. They're not like us. They don't have. I don't think they have that thought process of, oh, let me fake it out. Like, they're pretty pure in that sense. So if they're hurting or they're sick, they're usually going to show us. And, you know, it's our job to advocate for them.

[Bobby Bones]

People bringing in pets that aren't really sick. But the owner's just dramatic. That probably happens a lot.

[Dr. Josie]

Oh, yes. These are My helicopter parents. And listen, I don't knock them. Like, if I wasn't a vet, I'd probably be like, oh, my gosh, my dog blocked. Blinked 10 times instead of 2. I should take her in. But absolutely, we definitely have some helicopter parents. I'm like, they will be okay.

[Bobby Bones]

We sent Josie a picture. Sorry, Dr. Josie. We sent Dr. Josie a picture. And it wasn't my idea send a picture. But my wife's like, send her this picture and see what's wrong with Eller. And so I send Josie a picture of Eller's paw, and it's got this, like, green growing off of it. And so there's some sort of gangrene or something crazy on it. We know that's eaten Eller's foot away. And so I text it over to Josie and she responds, that's a grass stain. So stuff like that has to happen a lot, right? Where people just interpret it as something that's terrible, but it's just a normal for sure.

[Dr. Josie]

The pictures we get as veterinarians, like, the amount of times a day I get a butthole picture, a poop picture, just like, hey, take a look at this. I'm always like, wow, I am so.

[Bobby Bones]

Lucky you did tell me, because Stanley has been really sick, and it's something we've been working on for a couple of months. He has some sort of digestive disease. And Josie's been over many times to work with Stanley, and he had, I won't even say an accident. It was an explosion. And she was like, next time, send me a picture. And I was like, I don't know. I don't know if you. But you need to see that stuff, right?

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah. It's helpful for me to understand, like, exactly what it looks like. So. I know. It's so weird. People are like, really? You want a picture of this? I'm like, yes.

[Bobby Bones]

I send her mine, too. Now I'm just like, I'm gonna send you all of them. What's the most luxurious thing you've seen somebody buy for their pet? Like, either a famous or just in your office, like, you're like, wow, I cannot believe you bought a Louis Vuitton cat holder.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah. Oh, my gosh. In downtown Chicago. I mean, I had dogs come in and Chanel Co. It's like Prada bows.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow.

[Dr. Josie]

So a lot of that. I had one lady who. Her dog had heart disease, and we don't do valve replacements here. She flew to Japan, got a valve replacement for her dog, and then, because it was heart disease, she had to stay in Japan for six months, I think, before she could fly home with a dog.

[Amy]

Oh, wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I bet. Did she have kids or was she a dink or was she older and the kids were gone?

[Amy]

I don't think she's dueling him. She was.

[Dr. Josie]

There's no.

[Amy]

If she had a. I don't know. Could you imagine that being your wife and she leaves you for six months to go.

[Bobby Bones]

I would imagine if that was my wife, I'd want her to leave me for six months and go do that. But yes. Yeah, Like, I would imagine that person.

[Amy]

I don't know.

[Dr. Josie]

She was in her. She was older. She was a 50s, 60s, and I don't know that she had husband or kids. Yeah. I think this animal, you know, was her world sink, so she went to the ends of the world to save it.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I get it. What has been the best part about the podcast for you?

[Dr. Josie]

I think my favorite part is, you know, you talk to these people that, whether they're country stars or, you know, I will say, quote, unquote, famous. I feel like when you talk to them about their jobs or their careers, like, there's a very, you know, business side of them. And then the second you start talking about their animals, they immediately kind of soften, their walls come down, and it's just a side of them that I don't think you get to see. I think it's really special. So it's been really fun talking to people and getting to know them a lot better. In that way.

[Bobby Bones]

It humanizes people that are kind of cartoon characters to us because we see them as famous.

[Dr. Josie]

Exactly. And I feel like it's like most interviewers are like, yes, and then I did this and then I did that, and they talk about their career, and it's like, no, tell me what you do with Fluffy at home. And no one's watching. And so it's like an interesting perspective on them.

[Bobby Bones]

I bet people love talking about their animals.

[Dr. Josie]

Oh, my gosh, they love it. I had one. Justin Anderson was like, I'm always that weirdo where I'm like, all I want to do is talk about my dogs. Like, I want to show people pictures of them, but, like, I don't. I don't want to be that guy. He's like, on this podcast, I can literally be that guy. I'm like, yes, this is what this is for. So, yeah, it's great.

[Bobby Bones]

You guys check out in the vet's Office with Dr. Josie, season three. The first episode is up now with Jason Tartek. And I wish the episode would happen after the dog naming controversy. It did happen, like, two days before.

[Dr. Josie]

I know. Maybe we should do, like, a little recap.

[Bobby Bones]

I bet he doesn't want to talk about it. That's why I would like to talk about it.

[Dr. Josie]

I bet.

[Bobby Bones]

Not a pretty nice guy.

[Dr. Josie]

He is so nice. And I am. He's now one of my clients. I just, like, don't think he would do something vindictive like that. I truly think, like, love all the men out there, but, like, he probably wasn't really listening when she was talking about her baby names. And I think the name Teddy's cute, and he just picked that one.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a theory.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, sure.

[Bobby Bones]

Because guys are stupid. Like, I don't know that I fully believe that that's the case. Because I think if you're gonna name a dog something even if you didn't remember and you're like, I'm gonna name him Reginald. If Reg, you're like, oh, why? Reginald Feels like a name I've talked about. I think it. You could be right. Cause guys are stupid.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And from every indicator that I have, people love Jason.

[Dr. Josie]

Yes. I have nothing bad to say. He is lovely.

[Bobby Bones]

But I don't know, it still feels a little weird. I'm still a little Team Caitlin on this one. Awesome. In the vet's office with Dr. Joosse. I hope you have millions of downloads and streams, but you're still a vet every single day as well.

[Dr. Josie]

I am a vet every single day. I'm in my scrubs. I'm about to go see Charlie. We call him the rock eater because he ate a rock at 12 weeks of age, and I had to go in and take it out. He's now three, doing great.

[Bobby Bones]

You can't pass a rock.

[Dr. Josie]

Not when you're 12 weeks old. I mean, maybe like, a little pebble, but this was like a rock.

[Bobby Bones]

Your scrubs, by the end of the day, are they covered in fluids and hairs?

[Dr. Josie]

Oh, it's gross. Yeah. Peanut butter, cheese. Maybe like, a little poop. It's pretty gross.

[Bobby Bones]

But what about from the animals?

[Lunchbox]

That's just her lunch.

[Dr. Josie]

I do not put my bands at work.

[Bobby Bones]

There she is. Dr. Josie. Everybody follow her. Dr. Josie Vett.

[Dr. Josie]

Yeah, Dr. Josie Vett.

[Bobby Bones]

And then check out the podcast and we'll put it down in our notes of our podcast. Thank you, Dr. Josie. Let's do a few voicemails. This is Stephen from Louisiana. Hey, I was just wondering if you ever heard anything else about that comedy special. You said that you Own the rights to it. Putting it on YouTube, Netflix. Where can we see it? Good point. It ran on cmt. I do own the rights to it now. I just got it back last week and I have not done anything with it. Hopefully in the next week or so. I just have to. We had to be formatted differently for television, so we had to edit it differently because it was a 49 minute special because the 11 minutes had to be for commercials. So I just now have to get in and pull those spots. But yeah, probably next week. That's just me not doing it yet. Yes, but I'm sure we'll put it on YouTube next week, Richard. And Fresno is the next one. Have a morning Corny for Amy. Who does Lunchbox dress up as for Easter? The Yeaster Bunny. The Yeaster Bunny.

[Amy]

The Yeaster.

[Eddie]

He didn't do a very good job of delivering that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I liked it pretty good. The Yeaster Bunny.

[Amy]

Oh, where's Lunchbox going for vacation?

[Bobby Bones]

Where?

[Amy]

The Yeast Coast.

[Eddie]

That was better.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Good.

[Bobby Bones]

This is the next one. Go ahead. Good morning, video. Eddie's talking about his little AI figurine. Eddie, you are hot. Whatever AI has said, who the hell cares you're hot. I think you're probably the most attractive gentleman on the show. Dad Bod is sexy. Oh, dad. No, you're not fat. And don't worry about it because you're hot.

[Lunchbox]

Dang, I'm blushing, man.

[Amy]

And you play that voice.

[Bobby Bones]

When Morgan says you have dad bod, you get offended. When she says she likes dad Bod, you're like, oh, yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Well, it wasn't. I didn't hear that. I heard you're hot.

[Amy]

Yeah, because Morgan can't, like with HR and all. She can't see.

[Dr. Josie]

It'd be really uncomfortable.

[Bobby Bones]

She wouldn't say that anyway. No, no, no. But she said dad bought. And so did this caller. And you didn't find anything.

[Amy]

Yeah, but the caller was also very complimentary of dad bod.

[Lunchbox]

If Morgan would have said, you're hot and you have a dad bod, and I think dad Bods are hot.

[Amy]

That's different.

[Eddie]

I don't think it would have been.

[Bobby Bones]

It wouldn't have been. You would have. You would have taken it way. Because you'd have been like dad Bod. That's so insulting.

[Lunchbox]

It is insulting.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I'm just making sure you heard that.

[Lunchbox]

I really didn't. Honestly, all I heard was hot.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

And the hottest on the show. Dude, that was awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

Because she has a type and it's me, dad Bod. I don't know what her type is, but she said she likes dad bods.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, that's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Was it?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, man.

[Bobby Bones]

See, all you have to do, you can insult him as long as you go. You're hot. Hey, man, you are hot. I mean, dumb as a rock, but you are so hot. You're the best looking one on the show. You're not done with a. Okay, we're done. We'll be here tomorrow on the show tomorrow. Ryan Coogler, who wrote and directed Black Panther Creed, Rocky Creed, Creed. And then a new movie that comes out tomorrow that I watched that's called Sinners, that's a horror movie. I don't really like horror movies, but I guess horror movies are different now than they used to be because I think of horror movies is like Freddy Krueger, but it was really good. Michael B. Jordan's in it and so he'll be on tomorrow. Big show tomorrow. Thank you guys for listening. And that's all. See you tomorrow. Bye, everybody.

[Amy]

At this point in my life, I'm all about streamlining the operation. Between work, kids, appointments, random last minute school projects, I don't have time to run out for every little thing that we need. So when I realized that with Walmart subscriptions, I could skip the hassle and have the essentials delivered straight to my door. Total game changer. I'm talking groceries, kids stuff, snacks, vitamins, skincare, shampoo, sunscreen. Literally everything that we go through on repeat. And right now, with spring in the air and that fresh new season energy, Walmart's got some serious deals happening. Find trending spring beauty at Walmart in stores, online and in the app.
