Key Discussion Points and Insights

1. How Much Money Has Lunchbox Wasted on the Lottery?

[03:01 - 07:54]

• Caller Scott asks how much Lunchbox has spent on lottery tickets and what that money could’ve turned into if invested elsewhere.
• Bobby estimates Lunchbox might have spent around $200,000 on lottery tickets over the years, which could have compounded to about half a million dollars.
  • Bobby: “You’d probably have half a million dollars right now if you’d taken all that. But your thoughts?” (03:53)
• Lunchbox defends his habit, claiming the “chance to hit it big” is worth the cost.
  • Lunchbox: “I’m getting a chance to hit it big and change my life in an instant. And that is what I am looking for. And you can say it’s a waste, but you can’t say it’s wasted until I die.” (05:17)
• The team debates whether prior lottery tickets or experience actually increases the odds (“the itch”/learning), ultimately concluding it doesn’t.
  • Bobby: “There’s no chance any of that money that he has spent will ever turn into any money in the future.” (06:20)

Notable Quotes

• Amy: “If you didn’t buy this, you’d have $500,000… but you don’t have anything to show for it.” (04:27)
• Caller (Scott): “Lunchbox does understand the definition of insanity, right?” (07:42)

---

2. Moral Dilemma: Helping Out the Less Fortunate

[08:04 - 19:45]

• Caller Patty raises the “Powerball dilemma”: With so much potential lottery money, shouldn’t people help others instead of buying luxuries?
  • Patty: “With the amount of money that’s in the Powerball, $1.7 billion, do you know how many people you can help with that kind of money?” (08:08)
• Bobby, Amy, Lunchbox, and Eddie talk personal responsibility, giving back, and society’s expectations if you win big.
  • Bobby: “I think most people think that if they had more, they would do more... but then once they got a little more themselves, they didn’t do more to help.” (13:29)
• Lunchbox compares giving to the homeless to playing the lottery—questioning the “waste” in both.
  • Lunchbox: “You say that me buying lottery tickets is wasted money. Me giving those homeless people money is...” (14:14)
  • Conversation splits on whether giving to homeless people (or buying coffee or lottery tickets) is “a waste,” with Amy and Bobby arguing all bring some form of value—even if it’s just fleeting enjoyment.
• The team shares anecdotes of offering food to homeless people and discussing pride, mental health, and the personal value of gifts.
  • Amy: “Psychologically, you don’t always know what’s going on with somebody... there could be a mental health issue, there could be a pride issue...” (18:49)

Memorable Moments

• Lunchbox’s “Robin Hood” Story: Lunchbox and Eddie recall trying to give leftover sandwiches to a homeless man who rejected them, sparking debate about generalizations and pride.
• Amy’s Reframe: “Use for alcohol and drugs is a smaller amount than people that are using it to go get food.” (15:14)

---

3. Bobby’s Epic Sports Bet at the Cubs Game

[21:04 - 34:10]

• Bobby recounts an adventure-packed night with Eddie at the Cubs-Braves game in Chicago.
• Eddie gets deeply into live in-game betting (betting on balls, strikes, etc).
  • Eddie: “If they just do a strike where no one ever cheers for a strike, we’re like, YES!” (30:25)
• Bobby, resisting at first, is drawn in and places a big bet—$200 on a batter to hit a single.
  • He wins $1,000 when the batter hits a single, and they all go wild in the stands.
  • Bobby: “I just bet 200 bucks on this. And the guy got a single—crack! Single. Thousand bucks.” (32:46-32:52)
• The segment highlights the thrill and impulsiveness of live sports betting, plus the camaraderie among friends.
• The crew discusses the nature of “gut decisions” (see next point).

Notable Quote

• Bobby: “You don’t even want to know about last night. Last night was awesome. You don’t even want to know.” (29:39)

---

4. The Power of Gut Instinct and Occam’s Razor

[26:42 - 55:16]

• Bobby brings up a poll: 70% of Americans use gut instinct when making major life decisions.
• They discuss what a gut instinct is—Bobby explains it’s actually “subconscious lived experience” rather than literal belly-thinking.
  • Bobby: “It is based on your lived experiences. Subconsciously, your brain quickly goes, ‘Let me crunch the numbers very quickly based on what we already know...’” (27:16)
• Amy reflects on ignoring her gut; Eddie says most of his decisions are gut-driven, especially gambling.
• Their sports betting adventures are cited as examples of gut decision-making with a logical backdrop.
• This pivots into a lengthy, hilarious struggle to recall the phrase “Occam’s Razor”—the principle that the simplest explanation is likely correct.
  • Multiple minutes (42:38-55:20) spent guessing, giving clues, and discussing memory tricks.
  • Amy’s boyfriend and Instagram serve as the backdrop for how this phrase comes up in their lives.

Key Moment

• Bobby: “Occam’s Razor would say that… the simplest solution is probably what it is. We spend a lot of time creating these different avenues.” (52:39)
• Amy (hilariously spiraling as she tries to recall): “Give me a hint… it’s in my brain… now I’m thinking of the devil…” (47:12+)

5. Quickfire: Listener Calls and Fun Extras

[61:12 - 67:15]

• Voicemails:

  • On “bring food, eat food” workplace etiquette (agreed: don’t eat if you didn’t bring).
  • Fun movie fact: Scarface was originally rated X for violence and drug use.
  • Football excitement: a listener says "it's like Christmas" when football season starts.
  • A “white line” scratch-off lottery theory—debunked by Bobby as just another social media myth.

• News tidbit:

  • Story of a news reporter stealing and pawning a neighbor’s $16,000 Rolex while they were on vacation, paralleling a previous discussion about trusting neighbors.

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments (with Timestamps)

• Lunchbox: “The day I die, if I’ve not hit the lottery, you can say, man, you wasted so much money. But if I hit and I am super rich, who’s going to care about $200,000? Not me.” (05:49)
• Bobby: “Logically, that makes no sense. However, I’ll let you have it.” (06:03)
• Patty (Caller): “Do you know how many people you can help with that kind of money?” (08:08)
• Amy: “Use for alcohol and drugs is a smaller amount than people that are using it to go get food.” (15:14)

• Bobby: “Occam’s Razor would say that… the simplest solution is probably what it is. We spend a lot of time creating these different avenues.” (52:39)

Hey, it's Amy Brown with the Bobby Bones Show.

Well, a win for us and our family is boar's head. It's a favorite when it comes to back to school lunches because honestly, my kids actually eat it. No half eaten sandwiches coming back home.

You'll taste the craftsmanship in every bite. Boar's Head, committed to craft since 1905.

[Eddie]

This is the Bobby Mo show and.

[Bobby Bones]

We can grab a few calls here. Let's go to Scott in Mississippi. Hey Scott, you're on. What's up buddy?

[Caller]

Hey man, how you doing today?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm doing pretty good. What can I do for you?

[Caller]

I was just curious. I know in the past I've heard Lunchbox say he spends like 100, 150 a week on lottery tickets and he's only won $250 out of all this for the most anyway, the most he's ever won. I was just curious if he had put that money away and saved it for all these years or put it in a CD or IRA or something like that. And, and I'm curious as to how much he thinks he's actually spent, you know, because that's over 5,000 a year. And if he's been doing this for 10 years, he's wasted over $50,000 on the lottery.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, we've done this before. As far as we calculated what we think that he has spent, it gets a little blurry because he doesn't have recollection of like those years, like 18 to 25 because he had no money. But then he had some money. So he wasn't really consistent with his buying. And I think it was like $200,000 or something that he's wasted playing the lottery. That it's not just $200,000, it's $200,000 compounded. Right. You're adding it's growth. And he'd probably have half a million dollars right now if he'd taken all that. But your thoughts?

[Lunchbox]

Well, I mean when I was younger it wasn't as much, it was, you know, maybe $25 a week or whatever. And as I started making more money, I started putting more towards the lottery. And you can say, oh, if you didn't buy this, you'd have $500,000. If you didn't buy that cup of coffee, guess what? Every morning if you didn't have that cup of coffee, you'd have $500,000. We can do ifs and buts and candy.

[Bobby Bones]

Buts, but not how it goes.

[Eddie]

What ifs and buts and candy.

[Bobby Bones]

Buts.

[Amy Brown]

How does it go?

[Bobby Bones]

Ifs, if, ifs. And I think candied. Nuts, right? Ifs and buts were candied. Yeah. I don't even know the whole thing. All I know is what he said wasn't right. Now I'm confused. And there's a difference. You're talking about an actual thing you're buying. When you drink coffee, you could say it's a waste of money, but you're actually getting something from that. You didn't get anything from losing.

[Lunchbox]

But I'm getting a chance.

[Amy Brown]

Enjoyment.

[Lunchbox]

I'm getting a.

[Bobby Bones]

He's not enjoying. It's miserable.

[Lunchbox]

I'm getting a chance to hit it big and change my life in an instant. And that is what I am looking for. And you can say it's a waste, but you can't say it's wasted until I die.

[Bobby Bones]

Because if that money's already wasted, you playing all those years has no influence or it does not factor into anything from this day forward, Nothing. All that money that is wasted money. You can say it right now.

[Lunchbox]

I disagree. Because you wouldn't still have the like. If you don't have the itch, then how are you gonna have the itch now? You gotta learn.

[Bobby Bones]

It's the scientific itch. You gotta learn how to play itches and butts.

[Lunchbox]

Yes. And if I. If I. The day I die, if I've not hit the lottery, you can say, man, you wasted so much money. But if I hit and I am super rich, who's going to care about $200,000? Not me.

[Bobby Bones]

Logically, that makes no sense. However, I'll let you have it. I'll let you own it.

[Eddie]

I mean, I kind of see what he's saying.

[Bobby Bones]

No, don't, don't. Because you. It's not.

[Lunchbox]

No, Eddie, go ahead. Go ahead.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, you said it taught him how to play. You don't have to learn how to play the lottery.

[Lunchbox]

You do.

[Eddie]

But if he does hit it, then all of those years was the investment.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's not. Because he can never have played once, ever. And today decide. I think I'm gonna start playing the lottery. And all those years they factor in none. That's dead. That's dead money. Dead weight. He didn't learn anything. It's not invested. There's no chance any of that money that he has spent will ever turn into any money in the future. It has nothing to do. Somebody today could play the lottery for the first time at the exact same mods Lunchbox does.

[Eddie]

That's crazy.

[Lunchbox]

But it's weird to me that, like, if you don't start playing at 18, like, I can't believe at 45 you'd just be like, you know what? I'm going to start playing this lottery thing that I've been seeing for the last 30 years, and I've never tried it. To me, if you don't start young, are you really going to do it?

[Amy Brown]

Well, occasionally we've done it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Yeah, we've done it because it's become such a new story when it gets so big. And secondly, you can move to a state where it is allowed after not living in a state where it was allowed. There are a lot of factors involved. You can marry somebody or have a new friend that's a lottery player that says, hey, you think about playing lottery, you could be in the office and you've never played. And the group is like, yeah, I never really done this. I'll put 10 bucks in. There are a lot of options here.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, but I mean, when you. If you hit it big, that $200,000 won't. It won't matter. Like, who cares? You could. When you're that rich, you can just light $200,000 on fire. And it's like, oh, well.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, Scott, that's the answer to your question. That's the answer to your question.

[Lunchbox]

An ira. I don't even know what that is, by the way.

[Caller]

And Lynch Fox does understand the definition of insanity, right?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know that he does, actually, because he keeps doing it.

[Caller]

I don't think he does either.

[Bobby Bones]

Scott, I appreciate you calling me. I hope you have a great day.

[Caller]

All right, y', all, too.

[Bobby Bones]

I see you later. Let's go over to Patty in Delaware. Hello, Patty, you're on the show.

[Caller]

Hi, how are you doing?

[Bobby Bones]

Pretty good. What do you want to say?

[Caller]

Okay. With the amount of money that's in the Powerball 1.7 billion. Do you know how many people you can help with that kind of money?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, you could help a lot of people with $10,000, but, yeah, I mean, it's all relative. Yeah.

[Caller]

Yeah. You could go around and like the housing market. I'm sorry, These banks have gone to the lowest level. You find people that need help with mortgage. Even if you charge them, they buy a house, you charge them 10% flat bottom. Break it down into however many years to a payment that they can afford, they can make it. Not where you. If you get a house for $200,000. You end up paying 600,000 to the bank because they compound it daily, every hour.

[Bobby Bones]

I understand your sentiment. I think that if I were to win a billion dollars, which is like half. Half a billion after all taxes, I think the last thing I want to do is start a new business.

[Amy Brown]

You don't want to become a bank.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think so. I do understand. Hey, you got a lot of money. You can help. I think that's relative, right? You get a raise, you make more money, you can help smaller level. Smaller level. Still helping people that need it. But I completely understand what you're saying. And yes, that money would be amazing. It'd be crazy.

[Caller]

Just go into an account and you end up. It would help. I couldn't fathom.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. You know, I wouldn't buy a yacht.

[Eddie]

Oh, you wouldn't?

[Lunchbox]

Why not?

[Bobby Bones]

I have no interest in yachts.

[Eddie]

That's true.

[Bobby Bones]

And that's what really rich people buy. That's like the really rich flex. How big can your yacht be? I watched a TikTok yesterday. This boat first it's maiden.

[Eddie]

Maiden voyage.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

It was a million dollar yacht.

[Bobby Bones]

That thing was more than a million dollars.

[Lunchbox]

That's what it said online.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I. I saw it said one million. That's. That boat was bigger than a million dollars. It dumped it tipped over. Whoa.

[Eddie]

What is it gone? Gone? I.

[Lunchbox]

It's like, oh, it's flooded and the crew had to jump off.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Oh my goodness.

[Amy Brown]

Like what went wrong?

[Bobby Bones]

Like those boats that even like Lake Travis. Like the Matt. The kind of yacht ish boats. The big or the big boat? The house boats. You mean like those are like pontoons? No, the bigger decker pontoon that you can sleep on.

[Eddie]

Oh, houseboats.

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Those are six figures. Yeah. So when they're like this boat. This is way more than a million dollar boat. But anyway, I watched it dumped over and I was like, first of all, how. Like don't they have boats figured out how to just keep them afloat? Like I understand if like the TV breaks on it or there's like a little leak here and there, but don't we understand the system of a boat just floating? Because it didn't. It's back.

[Amy Brown]

Sabotage.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm telling you. It was so weird, man.

[Lunchbox]

It was only in the water for 15 minutes, guys.

[Bobby Bones]

They launched it out backward and it just.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, the little levee thing that they have. The little system that puts it in the water. It goes in and then just floats back.

[Bobby Bones]

It was in Istanbul. So maybe the boat market's a lot Cheaper there.

[Eddie]

Turkey?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, maybe. That boat here is like 4 million there. It's only one. Do you guys know the song Istanbul, Constantinople? Yes. Istanbul, Constantinople. Why they changed it, I can't say, but why? They liked it better that way.

[Eddie]

Is that, like, from a movie or something?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, it's from a real band, but then it was used again in Animaniac. Pinky. Animaniacs, right? I believe so, yeah. But it's from they. They Might Be Giants is the original band. Also does the Malcolm in the Middle theme song.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah, that's right.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. Can you repeat the question? You're not the boss of me now. You're not the boss of me now. Take it, Amy.

[Amy Brown]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

You're not the boss of me now.

[Amy Brown]

I don't know this Malcolm in the Middle. I did not watch that show. Why does that surprise y'? All? Have you ever heard me talk about Malcolm?

[Bobby Bones]

No. It's a famous theme song.

[Amy Brown]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, if you were to play the LA Law. I've mentioned that a couple times. I don't. I never watched that show, but I know the song.

[Amy Brown]

I mean, I might know it if I hear it, but I can't.

[Bobby Bones]

You heard it. We sang it perfectly. We sang it better than they did.

[Amy Brown]

Okay. You're not the boss of me now.

[Bobby Bones]

She knows it. Yep. Nailed it.

[Amy Brown]

But that's the only line. Also, I'm trying to get pictures of this. I put. I Googled Istanbul. Yacht sank. Like nothing's coming up.

[Lunchbox]

Amy.

[Amy Brown]

Okay, maybe I spelled Istanbul wrong.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a tough word, Istanbul.

[Amy Brown]

Ah, I see.

[Bobby Bones]

Try Constantinople. There you go.

[Amy Brown]

Oh, my gosh. That thing is. Oh, yeah. Let's see. Right there. Yeah, that. I mean, that was just something. Was.

[Eddie]

Was it a wave or anything?

[Amy Brown]

Like something.

[Lunchbox]

It was all from the get go.

[Amy Brown]

Like.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it wasn't built right.

[Eddie]

It was like something they did wrong.

[Bobby Bones]

Like.

[Amy Brown]

But did someone purposefully do this?

[Bobby Bones]

Like, you think it should have cost more than a million dollars, and that's why it's so. That's funny. It's the version of a boat.

[Amy Brown]

Was it made with a 3D printer?

[Bobby Bones]

That's a great. Maybe that's why. Maybe it was a million. Like, there's nothing in it except a shell.

[Eddie]

We didn't say it could float.

[Bobby Bones]

Like Styrofoam.

[Eddie]

Oh, my gosh.

[Amy Brown]

Oh, my.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it just dumps over. It's crazy. Yeah. All right, Patty, hope you have a great day. Thank you for calling.

[Caller]

Thank you, too. Bye. Bye.

[Bobby Bones]

Bye, bye.

[Lunchbox]

Why do everybody. Why does Everybody think about, oh, if you win, how many people you could help? Like, why do.

[Bobby Bones]

Why does that.

[Eddie]

Right. Like, good people are so weird.

[Lunchbox]

No, no. But like, don't you think, like, why couldn't you.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I think most people think that if they had more, they would do more. But. But I think they thought that before they had more, and then once they got a little more themselves, they didn't do more to help.

[Lunchbox]

Exactly.

[Bobby Bones]

So then they think, well, but if I get Than this, then I'll help. Then I'll help.

[Eddie]

Yeah, that sounds right. It just. It just feels like. It's like when you play a homeless guy on the side of the road. Like, you can. Now I give him like two bucks. But if I had a billion dollars.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm interested to know where this is going. Go ahead.

[Eddie]

You know what I mean? And then I'd give more homeless people 100 bucks, maybe throw in 500 because it'd be easy because I got more money.

[Lunchbox]

Well, what's funny about the homeless people? You talk about wasting money.

[Bobby Bones]

Here we go. You want to talk about wasted money? I support none of this. I'm just going to listen in.

[Lunchbox]

You say that me buying lottery tickets is wasted money. Me giving those homeless people money is.

[Eddie]

Wasted money, but they're using it.

[Amy Brown]

Not true.

[Bobby Bones]

That's not. I don't, I don't agree with. I can't fight with this logic because he's often wrong, but I can't shift him.

[Lunchbox]

No, no.

[Amy Brown]

The only way it's a waste, and we don't know oftentimes how they're spending it is if they use it to go buy drugs. And I think that you.

[Bobby Bones]

I would even argue that that's not a waste. I would even argue for them for that minute of feeling good.

[Amy Brown]

I want to contribute to.

[Bobby Bones]

I hear you, but I would say waste would be you give it to them and they just tear it up and throw it and they're burning. They're finding some joy. We don't have to agree with the joy or. But I would say that's not a waste. That would be like buying a kid a toy that you don't know. They just found joy from it.

[Amy Brown]

Okay. I guess, sure, fine. We'll define waste as they throw it away or burn it. But like, I would. I think that that's happening. Well, probably never. Are they burning it or throwing it away. But also use for alcohol and drugs is a smaller amount than people that are using it to go get food.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Or. Yeah, yeah.

[Lunchbox]

I disagree with that because I would rather Them tell me that they're gonna buy beer with it or drugs instead of.

[Bobby Bones]

But then you wouldn't give it to them if it's.

[Lunchbox]

No, no. I, I, I've done, like, when they.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm sure you have. When they have a sign that goes, buying beer. And you're like, well, that's funny and novel. I'll do it once. But that's not really a thing where people go, let's go find the people that are honest about buying drugs and give them some money. That's not a thing.

[Lunchbox]

Because there's a guy that stands outside the Walgreens in the corner, happy and healthy, and he sends me, hey, man, can you give me something to eat? Can you give me something to eat? And I bought him a bottle of water and a bag of chips, right? And I give it to him, and I drive by, like 15 minutes later, he's gone. Guess what's sitting there on the street? The bag of chips and bottled water. He didn't take it with him. He wanted me to just give him money.

[Amy Brown]

Are you sure that the bag of chips wasn't empty?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think that's even the point here. I think he did it one time, and he's using that as his entire body of work.

[Amy Brown]

I know.

[Bobby Bones]

Which is Represents the entire body of work their homeless people are asking money to do. X, Y, and Z. So I don't think that's a fair comparison. I also don't think it's a waste. It's the same waste. The waste is in the lottery you spent. You got nothing from it. There's no chance to get anything from it, therefore, and it will not affect anything in the future. So that money is wasted money. I mean, you got the same result as if you dumped the money off the balcony here.

[Amy Brown]

I guess, in a way, you are contributing towards somebody else's win.

[Lunchbox]

I'm donating to the education of kids.

[Amy Brown]

I know, but, like, that is how the money is.

[Bobby Bones]

If you want to donate to the education of kids, you can literally donate money to the education of kids, where all that money goes to the education of kids.

[Eddie]

If you just go to a school and just be like, here, I want to give you this money.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah, I think so.

[Eddie]

See, that's what I do.

[Bobby Bones]

If I had a bunch, I would do that. Yeah, you just drive around to school.

[Eddie]

That looks like a nice school. Here you go. Here's a million dollars.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Hey, good for you guys.

[Eddie]

Start a choir class or something.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, but do you ever try to give homeless people Food?

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. All the time.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah. Why?

[Lunchbox]

I remember we tried sandwiches, and he told us, get lost. We.

[Eddie]

We, like. I think it was some kind of work meeting, and they bought a bunch of sandwiches, and no one ate them. So lunchbox night, Robin hooded them, took them to the streets and found homeless.

[Bobby Bones]

Robin hooded? Please.

[Eddie]

Like, stole it from the conference room.

[Bobby Bones]

Now, I understand what you did from the rich, but I'm. Yeah, it's from the rich.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Got it, got it.

[Lunchbox]

We were going to give it to.

[Bobby Bones]

I was wondering who the rich was. Yeah, go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

We were going to give it to the less fortunate. And we walk up to this guy, and I mean, he's homeless as homeless can get. And we're like, here, man, you want to. Sandwich goes, I don't want that crap.

[Eddie]

He threw it back at us.

[Bobby Bones]

So what's the most homeless person can get, I wonder.

[Amy Brown]

Right?

[Lunchbox]

Well, I mean, he was looking in the trash can.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, but I'm saying it's as homeless as homeless can get.

[Lunchbox]

That's what I'm saying. He was looking in the trash can. So I'm like, he's definitely looking for food.

[Bobby Bones]

So a little bit, like, you're devaluing. You're dehumanizing homeless people a little bit when you talk about them like that.

[Lunchbox]

What do you mean?

[Bobby Bones]

We were trying to.

[Lunchbox]

We were trying to get.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I know, but it's almost like a parlor game you guys are playing.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, Literally, we were just giving him any homeless person. But I'm saying this guy was digging in the trash, and we offered him a boxed lunch, and he homeless.

[Bobby Bones]

Was he homeless?

[Lunchbox]

Is homeless kids.

[Eddie]

It's pretty homeless.

[Lunchbox]

And he pretty much threw it back at us. And it was just like.

[Amy Brown]

Wait, clarify. He took it and threw it back at you? Yes, and he physically threw it.

[Eddie]

He said, I don't want that crap, and the sandwiches are all over the sidewalk.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you ask him if you wanted it, though, before you just.

[Lunchbox]

We're like, hey, man, would you like a sandwich? We go to hang.

[Bobby Bones]

Did he say. Yes.

[Lunchbox]

And he grabbed him and go, I don't want that crap.

[Bobby Bones]

They say he wanted the sandwich.

[Eddie]

No, I don't remember that.

[Amy Brown]

I mean, psychologically, you don't always know what's going on with somebody. I don't think. I don't know.

[Eddie]

It's just a story. I don't think. I didn't think much about it. I didn't go on and make the assumption that, like, homeless people don't want free food.

[Amy Brown]

Right.

[Eddie]

But that guy didn't but also, I.

[Bobby Bones]

Don'T think he wanted you guys coming up to him. Maybe not.

[Amy Brown]

Well, maybe he doesn't want. Like, there could be a mental health issue. There could be a pride issue of, like, he. He's fine with digging through the trash for what he wants. He does not want to take something from somebody else.

[Eddie]

Oh, like, he's proud.

[Amy Brown]

I mean, there could. I'm saying there could be any given.

[Bobby Bones]

Scenario, ashamed of somebody coming and going. Here, I've got you food.

[Amy Brown]

Like, hey, we see you digging in the trash. And now he's like, oh, great. Now you're reminding me. I'm digging the trash. I don't want your food.

[Eddie]

I remember the digging the trash. I don't remember a lot of food.

[Lunchbox]

You're telling me he might have made that up. He was at the trash can, man.

[Bobby Bones]

He was. Literally might have made that up. All I remember.

[Lunchbox]

I can take you to the trash can today if you want to.

[Eddie]

We were walking down the sidewalk with sandwiches, and he's got that green trash.

[Lunchbox]

Can right there in the middle.

[Eddie]

Like, hey, this is a good opportunity to give them sandwiches.

[Bobby Bones]

That's all I remember.

[Eddie]

I don't remember the trash can or being as homeless as homeless can get.

[Lunchbox]

It's like.

[Bobby Bones]

It's just a weird term. He's as homeless as you can get. I believe there's one type of homeless that's somebody who doesn't really have a safe and stable place to go back to.

[Lunchbox]

Okay. Like, we were in Chicago when I was a kid, and we had gone to Gino's East Pizza, and we're driving back to my grandma and grandpa's house, and there's a homeless dude at the stop sign. Stoplight. And he has a sign, will work for food. And my sister says, dad, give him the pizza. The leftover pizza. And my dad goes, he doesn't want the pizza. And my sister's like, give him the pizza. And he goes, he doesn't want it. She goes, dad, we have to give him the pizza. He's hungry. So he rolls down the window and offer him the pizza. Does the guy take the pizza?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm gonna guess he said nothing about wanting food. He said, we'll.

[Lunchbox]

He said we'll work for food.

[Bobby Bones]

So did say he wanted free food. To be fair. To be fair. That's a. That could be a pride thing.

[Amy Brown]

Maybe he's. What do you have? Are you lactose intolerant?

[Bobby Bones]

Maybe germaphobe.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah, he can eat dairy.

[Amy Brown]

Can't have dairy. He can't have cheese.

[Eddie]

He can't have pizza.

[Amy Brown]

I mean it sounds like this perception lunchbox has dates back to his childhood.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

And the dude didn't date. He goes, no, you can keep the pizza. And I was just like. And I was like, right there. I was like, man, okay, so they don't really want food.

[Bobby Bones]

Not they, but you're universally they ing them. One guy from that experience.

[Lunchbox]

And then it happened to us again.

[Eddie]

Yeah, two people. Two people.

[Bobby Bones]

But was it. Was he in the trash can?

[Eddie]

I don't remember that part.

[Caller]

Man.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, last night we were eating in Chicago and we. I'd done like five interviews.

[Amy Brown]

Did you have leftover pizza?

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, nothing like that. I went and I did a bunch of interviews yesterday because football season's coming back and I have a podcast that NFL's like, hey, do some promotions. So I went, did a bunch of podcasts yesterday to promote my show with Matt Castle, which there's an episode up yesterday called Lots to say. And we did all these. I did all these episodes of podcasts and it was great. And then we go, we're going to the Cubs game last night, started raining and so we go somewhere to get something to eat. And I wanted hot dogs big time, which I mentioned earlier. I was just gonna. But I had no lunch. The only lunch that I had because I was going, we were bang bang was we stopped at Starbucks and I got one of those little plastic things with fruit because it was already like 2:30. I can't eat lunch at 2:30. It throws me off.

[Amy Brown]

Too late.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it's too late because then I can't even have dinner. If I have lunch at 2 o' clock I can't have dinner because I'm going to be a little too full to have the dinner at 6:30 or 7. Then I'm going to get hungry at like 10:30 or 11. It's going to affect my sleep. This is the entire process happening in my brain. So I'm like, well, have a little light something. So I had a little piece of bread, some grapes, apples. And we went up to the used to be Sears Tower. And so we finished that, it's raining. We go into the place to get some wings and one of my wings touched some blue cheese dressing. It was just touching it. Can't eat it because there's dairy in it. Anything creamy, there's dairy in for the most part. Who knew? So it just touches it and I'm like, not a big deal. And you know what I miss?

[Amy Brown]

Blue cheese people. Cream, cream.

[Bobby Bones]

I hear you. But anything Creamy I got to kind of shy away from. So I'm like, you just touched it. I don't waste the wing. So I had a bite of one touch of little cream destroyed my stomach.

[Amy Brown]

You are sensitive, huh?

[Bobby Bones]

And more sensitive now that I don't do it at all.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So it is screaming the whole night. So I met it with a couple hot dogs and pretzel last night.

[Eddie]

Not a boy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy Brown]

So are we sure it wasn't the couple hot dogs?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm positive, because it was killing me. As soon as I ate it, my stomach, like, within five minutes.

[Amy Brown]

Wow. You need to carry Lactaid with you.

[Bobby Bones]

I was in the jungle, baby.

[Eddie]

He doesn't need lactate because he doesn't eat.

[Amy Brown]

I know, but, like, emergencies, like, can you.

[Bobby Bones]

I could have not eaten the wing, but it had just a little touch on it.

[Amy Brown]

I mean.

[Bobby Bones]

And I thought to myself, I would like the taste of that because I haven't had it in forever. And it's only one touch.

[Eddie]

That wing did look good, though.

[Amy Brown]

But I guess, I don't know, maybe you have to take the lactate beforehand. But, like, you should just take it just in case, at all times.

[Bobby Bones]

I have lactate at home.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Sometimes if I'm confused, I. If I think, oh, maybe they cook this with butter, and it's not something. Because butter is in everything. They sneak it in all kinds of stuff. They cook it with butter. Sometimes they're not even. Like, they put butter in it, but they cook it with butter, and so I'll have it, and it doesn't always work.

[Amy Brown]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a weird life. So you know what? I suck at kicking, and I've always sucked at kicking. So I did all these interviews at Barstool yesterday, and they do this thing called the Gauntlet, and they have a gym, a full gym, and in the Gauntlet, you throw a beanbag. Southerners would call it cornhole. Cornhole, yes. I'm a Southerner, but I don't call it. We never had cornhole. We throw it through the hole, like, cornhole thing. And then you kick a soccer ball, and then you hit a. You have to hit a baseball out of the gym, like a wiffle ball. Then you have to throw a football through a hole, then shoot three pointers, and so all of this as fast as you can. And I was on. I've never been more on. Throw one bean bag in immediately. First one, hit the ball out of the. Out of the gym. First hit football, throw through the hole, first throw. Wow, I suck kicking. I look Like a four year old playing like group soccer when they just run around and kick and not really. That's how. I don't even know what footed I am because I was watching video yesterday and I kicked my right foot. I'm not right footed. Oh yeah, you're. I kick on my right foot, but it didn't feel weird. I'm so bad kicking that I don't know what footed I am. They had asked. They were like, what sport is your weakest? I was like, soccer. It never made it to Arkansas.

[Eddie]

Soccer.

[Bobby Bones]

Didn't make it up. Never made it all around the world. It got close. It like circled Arkansas, but we never let it in.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. We put up walls. And so no soccer. There was no soccer. And so they posted a video and I had finished the athletic part in like 36 seconds, like quick time. I shot threes pretty good. I had to make one on both sides of the gym. I think I shot four on each side and made one before I got to move on. Much like your. Your style when you were crushing them.

[Amy Brown]

My style of threes.

[Bobby Bones]

But I kick so bad and I don't think it's something I want to improve because it'll take some investment. But the fact that I don't know what footed I am is wild.

[Eddie]

If you're left handed, are you left footed?

[Bobby Bones]

Everything left. But the fact that I didn't even think about it and I kicked and I saw me kick with my right foot means I'm so bad it doesn't matter.

[Amy Brown]

But what if you would have tried with your left? You could have.

[Bobby Bones]

It didn't feel natural.

[Amy Brown]

I am.

[Bobby Bones]

Neither way felt natural.

[Amy Brown]

I get that.

[Bobby Bones]

And I think the ball was just on my right side. So yeah, that was what was up. Went to the game last night. Cubs lost. Oh, it's close to the end. In the eighth inning. We're like, who they play the Braves is. Yeah. Weather was. Weather ended up being nice.

[Amy Brown]

Does that impact you as much as Arkansas losing?

[Bobby Bones]

No, because there are 162 games and right now the Cubs are already in the playoffs. They were five out going from the brewers going into the game last night. So no, because there are so many games Arkansas losing. There are way less college football games.

[Amy Brown]

Gotcha.

[Bobby Bones]

So that's what's up.

[Amy Brown]

Each game carries more weight.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a good way to look at it. Yeah. I want to talk about gut instincts for a second because there's this story that's basically 70% of us make big life decisions based on gut instincts. And I Wanted to talk about what a gut instinct is, but I want to give you this story first from lifehappens.org A new poll found that 70% of Americans go with their gut or rely on it to some extent when making big life decisions. They used gut instincts as a catch all. Choosing a job. 32% of people have chosen a job based off gut instincts, deciding where to move. They sound like terrible places to use gut instincts. Oh, yeah, because gut instinct means quick decision. And I don't think a gut instinct is wrong. Also, it doesn't come from your gut like it's a. It's a lived experience. Brain decision, like your gut instinct. You're not thinking with a part of your body that doesn't often think. It's not literally your belly going. Not really used for this. But I think I'll do some thinking today. It is based on your lived experiences. Subconsciously. Your brain quickly goes. Let me crunch the numbers very quickly. Based on what we already know or what we think we already know due to our version of our perception. And this is what we would say quickly. And it avoids a lot of overthinking. Sometimes people can outthink themselves. Overthink themselves, but that's what a gut instinct really is. So when you go, I'm gonna do a gut instinct now, that's still your brain. It's just based on all of your experiences subconsciously. That is your brain giving you a rapid decision. Sometimes it's right, sometimes it's wrong. If you're a person that overthinks, I think it's. Sometimes it's great to go with a gut instinct. But some people also think you think with a different part of your body. It doesn't come from your gut. You also don't think with your heart.

[Eddie]

Oh, you don't?

[Bobby Bones]

No, not really a thing.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah. I think it's just a way to.

[Bobby Bones]

Define the different part of your brain.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, so there's the gut part of the brain, the heart part of the brain, and the brain part of the brain.

[Eddie]

Very different.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. So gut instinct. Ever made a big gut instinct decision?

[Amy Brown]

I don't. I can't think of one like where. I mean, there's things where I've ignored my gut so that I haven't made a decision and later turned out I should have done something or. And thought back on. Oh, I had that. I had that nudge and I didn't listen to it. So I've tried to, I guess, learn from that, but I'm like, I've never Just moved somewhere because, like, oh, my God. Just told me to do that. It's more of, like, just a knowing that I have. And oftentimes I've ignored you.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, always.

[Eddie]

I'd say 90 of my decisions are gut decisions. Like gambling, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

That was gonna be mine. All good.

[Amy Brown]

Oh, I guess I don't.

[Bobby Bones]

All gut.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah, well, your gut's good, Bobby. You win 11.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't even want to know about last night. You don't even want to know about. Last night was awesome. You don't even want to know.

[Amy Brown]

Oh, Eddie. One. You lost? Sounds like it.

[Eddie]

You don't want to know.

[Lunchbox]

You don't even want to know if Bobby is excited.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't even want to know.

[Amy Brown]

Oh, that means you won.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't want to know.

[Amy Brown]

Well, yeah, I do.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Since you asked.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah. Because now I can't tell. At first I thought you lost, but now your face is telling me my gut is saying you won.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't want to know, do you?

[Amy Brown]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. We were like, last night. I'm at the game. I'm gonna join the game. I don't have to gamble to enjoy a game. And I look over, and Eddie's, like, betting on every freaking at bat, every pitch.

[Eddie]

I'm like, it's a strike. $2. That's gonna be a strike.

[Bobby Bones]

And I'm like. I'm like, dude, what are you doing? He's on DraftKings, and he's like, I'm betting, like, a dollar if it's a home run. And I'm like, okay, that's fun.

[Eddie]

But what's funny, Amy, is that even, like, if they just do a strike where no one ever cheers for a strike. We're like, yes.

[Bobby Bones]

So Eddie's, like, way into the game, and it was, like, 0010 for a long time. He's over there having a good old time. And it was me, Eddie, George Burge, and Morgan who went to the game, and not this Morgan. Morgan, number one. And so we're at the game, and Eddie's just over having a great time on his phone. He got plenty of battery.

[Eddie]

Come on.

[Bobby Bones]

Foul ball. Yeah. No, he's just, like, so dialed in. And so we did both bet. The first thing. We bet no runs. First inning.

[Eddie]

Correct.

[Bobby Bones]

And we won. There were no runs, first innings, but.

[Eddie]

That one was tough because the Cubs were batting second, and so we needed them to kind of get out, which.

[Bobby Bones]

Is tough to root against your team. But since it's the first inning and the Braves didn't score, we're like. And so they don't score more like we got to keep quiet. Yes. So I bet like 150 bucks on that and won like 300 bucks. It's just basically bet 150, win 150. Right. And so that happens. And I don't, I'm not betting anymore. Eddie kind of lured me into betting that one too. He's like, let's do it. It'd be fun. And I was like, all right, peer pressure. So I look over and Eddie's just betting and looking at the game, betting. And then he goes, I think I figured this out. He goes, there's like a split second where since we're here, we can bet on it and have the, like, have an advantage over the app.

[Eddie]

Turns out I was wrong about that.

[Bobby Bones]

And he never could quite get it. He never could quite get it.

[Eddie]

I was like, wow, it was a split second. Guys, like, they would swing and miss and I'd hit the button and be like, oh, it didn't go through.

[Bobby Bones]

So he's, he's continuing to bet. And it's like the fourth or fifth inning. And I'm like, okay, I'll do this a little bit. This could be fun. And so the first inning, I did it. I think I. I bet like 50 bucks a pop. And I ended up making like 150 bucks that one inning. And I was like, oh, this is fun. I don't really need to do this because I'm enjoying the game, but why not? Next thing comes about and you can bet on. And the thing, the easiest one was they get out like they hit and they get out like that was where. How would I explain this? That was where it was the easiest one to win because that's what happened most. So I was like, you know what? Screw it. I'm going to bet on this. This exact person gets a single, which not a double, not a triple, not a home run, not a strikeout, not a walk, not a hit by pitch, not a ground out. They have to get a single. So I bet 200 bucks on it. And we're. And I show Eddie. I'm like, I just bet 200 bucks on this.

[Eddie]

Dude, you're crazy. Like, we haven't seen a single in like 30 minutes.

[Amy Brown]

And the guy got a single crack single.

[Bobby Bones]

Thousand bucks.

[Amy Brown]

Shut up. Yeah, you're right. I don't want to know. So you're good.

[Eddie]

And we went crazy again, Amy. A single's cool. And Wrigley Field is like, yeah. But we are like, oh, yes, we're.

[Bobby Bones]

Jumping up and down. It was crazy because again, there are a lot of single. But it had to be exactly that Couldn't be a double, couldn't be a ground out. And yeah, it's good. So I ended up, I, I, it was fun. We had a good time last night at the game.

[Eddie]

Yeah, that was awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

We didn't win.

[Amy Brown]

But you won.

[Lunchbox]

And I think you won.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

You won.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I was like, I couldn't believe it. As soon as he hit the pit, I was like, oh, my God. And it landed and I was like, I can't believe. And I showed Eddie and Morgan goes, did you just win $1,000? I was like, yeah.

[Amy Brown]

So that was like a gut thing you had.

[Eddie]

There we go.

[Bobby Bones]

Complete gut.

[Eddie]

That's it.

[Bobby Bones]

But it's based off of lived experience.

[Eddie]

And what was that experience?

[Amy Brown]

But you had no idea. I mean, obviously that could have easily been an out.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but you're just thinking like, I don't know, this is the time. This batter, he's going to get a single. It was just a gut feeling.

[Bobby Bones]

Right. Also, nobody on two outs. Like, the pitcher's going to give him some balls to hit because he doesn't want to walk him. You don't want to walk a two out, two out hitter. So I was like, you know, but again, it was just me doing a thing. I couldn't, I couldn't believe it.

[Eddie]

That's crazy, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

I couldn't believe it. I quit.

[Amy Brown]

I mean, I'm not, like, shocked.

[Bobby Bones]

I played a couple more times.

[Eddie]

He's so lucky.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't bet. I didn't bet like that anymore. It's. I had to make the decision.

[Amy Brown]

And then I got lucky that I hit a single.

[Bobby Bones]

No. And I did let things factor my decision. There were two outs.

[Amy Brown]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

I knew the pitcher would be giving him something to hit. So had it been the first batter, I don't think I would have bet that.

[Eddie]

So is that still a gut feeling if you did think?

[Amy Brown]

Because that's like using logic. Like you're, you're, you're, you're using now logic.

[Bobby Bones]

That's okay. You can do logic with your gut.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah, sure.

[Bobby Bones]

It doesn't have to be extremely logical.

[Amy Brown]

That's what I have to do now with directions. Like if my gut says go right, my logic is like, this means you go left.

[Eddie]

Oh, man.

[Lunchbox]

That's because you argue with yourself.

[Bobby Bones]

That's tough. George Costanza's method man. Every decision, do the opposite. Be successful. This episode of the Bobby Bones show, brought to you by Chase Sapphire.

It is really important that my digital messaging is clear. No mistakes. It's also important when I send messages that they send quickly and that I get responses quickly. WhatsApp can help with all that. First, you can message privately with everyone in a group even if you're using totally different phones. Sent a message too fast and you regret it? No problem. Just edit it. And when the chat gets a little too intense, you can switch to a group video call and actually talk it out. Photos and videos come through clear messages get delivered without gaps or delays. Plus WhatsApp has so many great features like polls, pinned messages, even event invites with RSVPs. So planning stuff just doesn't turn into a big old mess. It just makes a lot of sense. It's time for WhatsApp message privately with everyone.

NG Co Audio all right, let's do some voicemails here. I can do this call as long as go Put Tanya on real quick, Ray. I'll talk to her. Hey Tanya, I'm gonna put you up, but don't spoil anything, okay?

[Caller]

I won't, I won't.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, Tanya's on from Colorado. Tanya, what is your question?

[Caller]

I just wonder if any of you have watched the documentary On Netflix called Unknown Numbers, the High School Catfish.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, you have? I haven't watched it yet. I've been waiting. I'm not gonna watch it with my wife because she had a stalking issue that's triggering for her. So I'm trying to find a time to watch. I got, like, three alone shows that I got queued up to watch. Oh, you know what comes back to this month? Faster Horses Season 5. If you haven't watched that show, you're missing out. But I do want to watch this. And every time I see somebody write about it, they're like, it's. And they get pissed off because of what happens on the show. I don't know what happens on the show, Tanya. How will I feel when it's over?

[Caller]

Well, watching it, I was kind of depressed. I thought it's horrible that people. There's people out there like that. And after it was over, it was shocking. And there needs to be a lot of psychotherapy there.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Amy, your thoughts?

[Amy Brown]

Yeah. So I got a text from therapy Cat. She's the co host of my podcast, and she's like, have you watched this yet? She texted me yesterday and I said no. So last night, that's what I watched as I was, like, getting ready for bed. Watched it last night, literally.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you done with it?

[Amy Brown]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Is it one. Is it a movie doc?

[Amy Brown]

It's an hour and a half.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, it's one. It's also an episode.

[Amy Brown]

It's a movie documentary. And my intention was I'm gonna watch half right now, and then I'll finish it tomorrow. Or whenever I could, I had to finish it.

[Bobby Bones]

Really?

[Amy Brown]

Yes. Like, it's what I. I got in bed to. And I try not to go to bed and watch something I'm trying to, like, read when I fall asleep. And I couldn't stop. Like, that's. You can't stop because you gotta know.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't even want to ask any questions.

[Amy Brown]

I'll be safe. Don't worry.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, good for you. Okay, so I can ask questions, you.

[Amy Brown]

Can ask questions, but I personally don't want to ruin it for you.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't even want to ask the question.

[Amy Brown]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't ask the question. Hey, Tanya, did you watch the. Amy. Amy Bradley. Oh, where did you watch that one where she fell off the boat?

[Amy Brown]

Well, you don't know.

[Caller]

Yes, I did, because you guys recommended it.

[Bobby Bones]

What. What did you think about that one? Because we. We've mostly have seen that one.

[Caller]

Yeah, that. That one was not shocking to me. I just thought. I think she died. I think she either did. Was drunk and fell off or. But she's gone. I don't think she's alive somewhere.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I think that too. This is one of those where I definitely could be wrong. It's close, but I think. And do you remember the term? I won't say taught you guys, because that feels condescending that I brought up and you guys are like, oh, what does that mean? And the definition is usually the simplest thing is the true thing.

[Amy Brown]

Oh, wait, I don't know if I was here for this, but hold on, hold on.

[Lunchbox]

What did you say?

[Eddie]

What's the definition?

[Amy Brown]

I don't think I was here for this, but I do know it. Give me one tiny hint and I'll.

[Bobby Bones]

Let me ask the guys first. They often don't listen. Fubar.

[Amy Brown]

No, no.

[Bobby Bones]

That means effed up beyond all repair.

[Eddie]

Okay, it's not it then.

[Bobby Bones]

No, there's a term. And I said. I said this and I said, what it means is usually the simplest thing is the true thing. It's a bit of gut instinct type thing also, too. Like, you don't overthink it. The simplest thing, regardless of all the factors, is usually the true thing. And I think this is that case here. I don't know it. And it's like, it's close. If you're betting it's close.

[Eddie]

And it was one word.

[Bobby Bones]

No, two words.

[Amy Brown]

No, it's two words. It just drives me crazy because my boyfriend literally said this. Whatever this phrase, these two words are to me somewhat recently. And I was like, oh, I'm gonna remember that. And then, you know, once you hear something, you start to notice it. Then I saw it on a TV show and I was like, whoa. I would have never. That phrase would have just flown right by me. I wouldn't have really known what they were referring because he had said it recently. So that's why I need a tiny hint, because it's in my brain.

[Bobby Bones]

It's funny when that happens because the same thing happens to me where if I learn something and then I see it in a couple places I go, I am missing out on most of Earth because there's a lot of stuff that's just happening around me that I don't even understand. It doesn't even hit me that I don't even understand it, since I don't get it. I spend no time invested in learning it or even knowing that I don't know it. But, yeah, it's a weird thing driving.

[Amy Brown]

Me crazy right now.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you guys get it no.

[Lunchbox]

Well, here's the thing, okay, Bobby. You give us so many terms and knowledge.

[Bobby Bones]

I wasn't giving it in a way of like.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, I know, but you said it, and I'm just like, oh, that's smart. Hold on.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang.

[Lunchbox]

Breadcrumb.

[Eddie]

Bread crumb.

[Lunchbox]

It's not breadcrumb, like, where you leave breadcrumbs.

[Amy Brown]

It's not like Cartman's.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, go.

[Amy Brown]

It's no Cartman. No, that's a different Come Sail Away.

[Lunchbox]

So hard to keep up with all.

[Amy Brown]

The things if you give me.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you do a carbon impression? You're pretty good.

[Caller]

Hey, guys.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Is that it? Yeah, that's it. Carmen, go a little bit here, you guys. That's pretty good.

[Eddie]

Thank you, man.

[Bobby Bones]

That is good, man.

[Eddie]

I haven't heard Carmen in a long time.

[Bobby Bones]

I know.

[Lunchbox]

Do your kids watch South Park?

[Eddie]

No, no, no, no.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you do Come Sail Away with Cartman?

[Eddie]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Is it Come Sail Away?

[Eddie]

No, I can't do it. That's it.

[Bobby Bones]

Go, go, go. Commit to it. Come Sail Away.

[Lunchbox]

Come Sail Away.

[Bobby Bones]

Pretty good. I give it a solid C with no prep. Amy, you're there because Cartman sounds like phonetically, you're dancing around it.

[Eddie]

Carmichaels.

[Amy Brown]

No, I know it's in here, so I just need time or a hint. I'd prefer the hint because then that would speed things along.

[Lunchbox]

Ooh, carte blanche.

[Amy Brown]

No.

[Lunchbox]

Dang it.

[Bobby Bones]

That's kind of like the freedom to God.

[Amy Brown]

This is what frustrates me about my brain. It's like, what the heck?

[Eddie]

Carpe diem.

[Bobby Bones]

No. Do you know what would help is saying it out loud once you learn something. We talked about this. If you say it out loud, it, like, reinforces it multiple times to your brain.

[Eddie]

I do that with names, though. And then I forget it. As soon as, like, I did say it out loud.

[Amy Brown]

I think I said to my boyfriend, oh, my gosh. That thing you said to me the other day, I saw it on a TV show, and then I said it out loud. And then I saw Mike Noser. Camille.

[Bobby Bones]

You're saying, no, she's made this hat. You're just saying, what are you talking about?

[Amy Brown]

Camille. She made this hat. I'm wearing MB Goods. And she actually. I saw her on Instagram talking about how she was designing something and trying to figure out the best way to do it. And she was like. Like, you know, the simplest route is often the best route or something. Like. And she quoted, get there. I can't. I need another. I need a hint for what the two words are, and I'm gonna get there.

[Lunchbox]

Is this how your brain works? How you talk like this?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm gonna give you a scenario that happened yesterday, and the scenario will be a hint, okay? But it's gonna be a hint adjacent. Like you're gonna have to read into it. So I was recording my NFL podcast that you can hear called Lots to say with Matt Castle. And he, we have a studio at the house. And he comes over and Matt Castle is a large guy, thin, but like, he's an NFL quarterback. He's six, five, like, superb athlete. Good looking guy too. Like, had all the, all the skills of a player, but like all the things you think a quarterback should be, like, large, good looking. And he's across from me. And I often bring that up, like, date. You were just born with a lot of this. And he, he says, you know what thing I noticed about you? He says, do you shave every day? And I said, I'm on camera in capacity, five days a week, six days a week. So on Monday, I shave with a, With a straight razor. On Tuesday, I do a. I have electric razor. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and I shave again on Friday with a straight razor. I said, and usually that keeps me to where I am, where it looks like I'm not. And I grow weird facial hair anyway. It's consistent, but it's. I get like little patches of gray. My browns don't match. And so he was like, oh, that's interesting. So we just had that little talk.

[Amy Brown]

What I was trying to listen for. If you were saying the word that I'm looking for in my brain, and I didn't hear you say it, but you said a lot of words. But I know it's not like Monday, Wednesday, Friday. I know it's not shave.

[Bobby Bones]

I said the word. I said one of the words I did.

[Amy Brown]

You said the word. Thin, large, tall.

[Bobby Bones]

Castle.

[Amy Brown]

Castle. Do you shave brown? Brown.

[Eddie]

What did he say at the beginning when he said, what'd you say about browns Natural?

[Amy Brown]

They're not. Browns don't match my matches. My browns don't match brown.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you hear me say it, Mike? I heard it.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah, well, of course you heard it. When you know it, you hear it.

[Bobby Bones]

But I'll be a hater. I was just making sure he heard.

[Amy Brown]

Okay, good. Good job, Mike.

[Bobby Bones]

What I do.

[Amy Brown]

You're right. No, I mean, I'm just saying, like, if I, If I knew the word already, I would obviously have picked up on it. And I know it's somewhere in my bed.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm Saying this phrase. And I said one word multiple times.

[Amy Brown]

You said it multiple times purposefully.

[Bobby Bones]

Shave.

[Amy Brown]

It's not shave, guys. We'll figure it out. It's not day. Look. It's not large. I keep thinking capacity.

[Lunchbox]

He said capacity.

[Amy Brown]

Why do I keep thinking of the devil?

[Eddie]

Horns.

[Amy Brown]

Satan. Satan's law. Devil.

[Lunchbox]

Cartman's law.

[Amy Brown]

Theory. It's not that dark routine. Shave you often? Often.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm gonna put you on the clock here.

[Amy Brown]

No, but can you tell that story as painful as it was?

[Bobby Bones]

No. And I was telling a long, painful story purposefully to see if you would get the clues. I was Taylor Swift and Easter egg in you.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah, I know. And I was waiting for the word. And you didn't say theory. So it's not that from right now.

[Bobby Bones]

You have 45 seconds. So when the clock gets to one.

[Amy Brown]

Minute, I give up on my brain. Don't give up, Amy. Okay. Give up. Don't give up, Cartman. No. Carter. Guards. Say it. Say the story again. Just some of it.

[Bobby Bones]

20 seconds.

[Amy Brown]

Shaving.

[Eddie]

What did he do on Monday? He does what? Shaves.

[Lunchbox]

Straight edge. Straight razor.

[Amy Brown]

Straight razor.

[Eddie]

And then on Tuesday.

[Amy Brown]

Every day. No. Do you shave every day?

[Bobby Bones]

10 seconds. I just told you a whole goddang story.

[Amy Brown]

I know, I know. I want you to tell it again.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't even want to tell it again.

[Amy Brown]

Ray, play it back.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, that's time.

[Amy Brown]

I know. Give me another hint. You don't tell a story. Just give me like a half of the word. Just half of the word. Because this is for my brain.

[Bobby Bones]

The first word of the two makes no sense. So you're not going to know that based off any word you already know. The second word is a word. You know.

[Eddie]

Effect.

[Amy Brown]

Fine, give me the. Which word did you say in the story?

[Bobby Bones]

The second. Because it's a word you already know.

[Lunchbox]

What in the world.

[Eddie]

I have no idea.

[Bobby Bones]

Weak. I've also. On this. I've done this multiple times. I once asked my assistant to define it.

[Lunchbox]

Really?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy Brown]

I don't think I was here for that.

[Bobby Bones]

You were.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, boy.

[Amy Brown]

Well, then at that point, I must.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, you guys don't listen.

[Eddie]

No, no, no.

[Bobby Bones]

We listen. Not in a disrespectful way.

[Eddie]

I listen. I don't retain.

[Lunchbox]

That's it. That's what it is.

[Bobby Bones]

That's not listening.

[Eddie]

No, I hear you right now.

[Bobby Bones]

You just listen to all kinds of stuff. You retain the stuff that you choose to retain.

[Lunchbox]

Sometimes it's too intelligent.

[Amy Brown]

Give.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a person. The first person is a person. He's like an English philosopher from a long time ago, like 1400s. But I didn't know him other than this phrase, so it's his law. What was I talking about doing?

[Amy Brown]

Shaving.

[Bobby Bones]

Correct. What do I shave with?

[Amy Brown]

Razor.

[Bobby Bones]

Correct.

[Amy Brown]

Oh, my God. Eckhart's razor.

[Bobby Bones]

You're close, Edgar.

[Eddie]

Edgar.

[Amy Brown]

Eckhart's. Eckhart. Eckhart's raised Eichmann's razor.

[Bobby Bones]

You said Cartman. I knew you had it. It was somewhere in there. I don't know that you own it.

[Amy Brown]

Something's. Yeah, okay, I guess razor wasn't.

[Bobby Bones]

It's Occam's razor.

[Eddie]

Occam.

[Amy Brown]

Occam's. Right.

[Bobby Bones]

So occasionally am or um, Aca.

[Eddie]

Never heard that. I'm.

[Bobby Bones]

You've heard it because I've talked about it.

[Lunchbox]

I was like, man, that's amazing.

[Bobby Bones]

Based off Occam's Razor, I think she fell off the boat.

[Amy Brown]

Occam's Razor.

[Bobby Bones]

Is that.

[Eddie]

Is our caller still on?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Oh, Tanya's there. Hey, Tanya.

[Amy Brown]

Tanya, did you know it was Occam's Racer?

[Caller]

No, I had no clue.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's okay. I didn't know it until I learned it.

[Lunchbox]

Wow. Tanya stayed there the whole time.

[Bobby Bones]

Tanya's our friend. Tanya's hanging out.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, Tanya, what did you think of that story?

[Caller]

It was confusing.

[Amy Brown]

Occam's Razor. You did it. You sure did. You sure said razor. I didn't mean that. That's it.

[Bobby Bones]

You said it twice.

[Eddie]

Yeah, that's what your boyfriend said.

[Bobby Bones]

By the way, I wasn't proud of the story. I was using the story as an avenue to give Amy clues to figure it out. Okay.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah, it was on a TV show. Boyfriend said it. Camille said it on Instagram. Okay.

[Eddie]

How can I use that in a sentence like, in the next week?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, if somebody's like, hey, what do you think about this? You could say. And it's quite deflective, especially if you don't explain it. Yeah. Like, that's. The flex is going. I mean, Occam's Razor would say that. For example, let's say somebody lost their keys. Okay. Okay. Your wife's like, I cannot find my keys. You're like, I don't know. Occam's Razor.

[Amy Brown]

Couch, Your. Your purse, your hand.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh. Like, wherever. The easiest place is probably where it is, like the simplest thing. Okay. And it's probably not in the couch, by the way, because that is probably. It's an example of how you could use it. But again, that term is whatever the simplest solution is. It's probably what it is. We spend a lot of time creating these different avenues. It could be that we overthink it. It gets back to gut instinct, which is a part of your brain. But Occam's razor is the simplest solution.

[Eddie]

Occlum.

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Amy Brown]

Occam.

[Bobby Bones]

Occam.

[Eddie]

Occam. I'm going to use that this way.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you want to. Do you want to try to remember it by how it sounds? Yeah. How would you. How would you remember to remember that? Because I told you about Pete and Cavilla. Who are we doing.

[Amy Brown]

I definitely was not here for that.

[Eddie]

Villa.

[Bobby Bones]

Are we doing this again?

[Lunchbox]

That's Giamatti, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

Paul Giamatti. I can never remember Paul Giamatti for that.

[Amy Brown]

I wasn't Pete.

[Bobby Bones]

And Gavilia is a baseball player, played for Oklahoma State in the Texas. How I remember Paul Giamatti? Because I can never remember. I. I do a lot of these. That's how I remember most things.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

That's how I was good in school. I remembered a lot of things based off of other words and tricks.

[Amy Brown]

Well, I was terrible at school.

[Bobby Bones]

What's Occam sound like?

[Eddie]

Rock em sock em.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Rock em sock em. It's a very simple game as a kid.

[Eddie]

Oh, that's so good. Rock em sock em.

[Bobby Bones]

So if you're like, I'm trying to remember this thing about the simplest. Oh, simple. Rock em sock Em. Occam's razor. Okay.

[Eddie]

And if they say, like, what did you say? Do I just run away or you.

[Bobby Bones]

Do the Oregon duck. The duck mascot. When the head came off, you just run back in the. No, you say that. You be like this. Be like, I'm not trying to. Occam's razor. Sorry. It means. What it means is the simplest solution. It's probably oftentimes what the answer is.

[Eddie]

Okay. That's legit.

[Bobby Bones]

Find a time and try to use it. Oh, yeah. But the worst is when you try to use it at a place where it doesn't belong and someone actually knows what it means.

[Eddie]

This is gonna be fun.

[Lunchbox]

I don't think a lot of people know what that means. I'll be honest. That's few people, Eddie.

[Eddie]

So you'll find out, though.

[Lunchbox]

You're gonna stick out. Like, you know, you're gonna be like, dang.

[Bobby Bones]

But you want to stick out with people at.

[Lunchbox]

That's what I'm saying. You're gonna get. You're gonna get a lot of respect.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. You'll get respect.

[Eddie]

But Occam's razor and how do you remember that? Rock Em Sock Em?

[Bobby Bones]

And what about Rock Em Sock?

[Eddie]

Simple game.

[Bobby Bones]

Simple game you played as a kid. Sure. Yeah.

[Eddie]

It's probably the simplest solution.

[Amy Brown]

I mean, would Occam's Razor work for us sometimes when we're playing Easy Trivia and we make it more complicated for Abby, maybe.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Abby does extreme mental gymnastics. She's the Mary Lou Retton of Easy Trivia. She's finding what she's pommel horsing. She's pommel hors to the unevens. Yeah.

[Amy Brown]

It's a problem. So, yeah, Occam's razor.

[Eddie]

Razor.

[Amy Brown]

I'm gonna be like, you know, this is how I'm gonna remember it now.

[Bobby Bones]

Go, girl.

[Amy Brown]

Brazer. Now, I'm not gonna forget because of Bobby's story about him and Matt Castle and how he shaves Monday, Wednesday, Friday. But when shaving is simple, like shaving, this is more helping me also with the definition of like. It's a simple task. So when you shave, it's simple, and then you don't want to cut yourself because that would be like Occam.

[Eddie]

So you're already making a little complicated there.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. And he made it harder for me to remember.

[Eddie]

No, Amy, how did your boyfriend use it?

[Amy Brown]

I think me contemplating something and going round and round and making something a little more complicated than it needed to be. And he's like, all comes Razor. I think I told y' all I'm working on something, but I haven't told y' all what yet, remember? Yeah, so we were talking about that. Like, just, I don't know, my future things, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Could you get any more vague? Like, could you even.

[Amy Brown]

Well, we already talked about it. We already said I'm not. Like, I have had meetings and I don't know yet.

[Bobby Bones]

You have this envelope with something in and you're not going to tell us?

[Amy Brown]

No, that would be ridiculous. This is more. This is more of like, a personal thing that I don't know that I want to say anything yet because, like, then what if it doesn't happen? And.

[Bobby Bones]

And.

[Amy Brown]

But once I figure it all out, definitely let you guys know.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, Tonya, thank you for the call. Thanks for hanging out with us and thanks for talking about that show. It reminds me I need to watch it.

[Caller]

You're welcome. I love you guys. I'm retired, alone, by myself, every day. And I just love your show.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, thanks. I really appreciate that. Well, hope you have an awesome day today.

[Caller]

Have a great day.

[Bobby Bones]

All right. Bye. Bye. Kelly Wolf. So I was talking last week about I stumbled across the TikTok where she was on her porch and Scott Wolf was with the kids and she was screaming at him. And then she did a whole. It looked like she was having a breakdown, and I don't really follow that, but it popped up and so I watched it. And now I'm fed a lot of and I'm not that interested, but then I still watch it. I felt bad for her, but I really felt bad for him. She doxxed him, put his phone number out there, and so she got in trouble.

[Lunchbox]

She did?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Man. There's something wrong with him. There's.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, she's had.

[Amy Brown]

Oh, yeah, she had a mental breakdown.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, there's something wrong with hers. There could be something wrong with her.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, there is. I mean, there is.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, she's messed up. Messed up can be however. However you're gonna phrase that.

[Eddie]

How is that?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Kelly Wolf is under a new protective order after violating a temporary agreement with her estranged husband, Scott Wolf. The order bars her from contacting Scott or their three children. That's when you know it's really bad when they won't even let her see her kids. It requires 300 foot distance and limits interaction to meditation sessions.

[Amy Brown]

Like, I often wonder when it's like, you know, 300ft?

[Eddie]

Like, like what is 300ft?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, it's 100 yards, one football field.

[Eddie]

Oh, is that right? Okay, so just imagine a football field. That's criminal.

[Bobby Bones]

Imagine a football field. Yeah. Goal line. Goal line to goal line.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah, I'm like picturing in my head, so she's allowed to be that distance, but like.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but mostly it's just a. It's just a number to mean stay away.

[Amy Brown]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, you know, when you're close to somebody, so just stay far away. That's what I mean. They're not really going to enforce 300ft. No one's there. Ah, 297, take three steps back.

[Eddie]

They got the app.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it's not really. It's not really meant for that, but yeah, you get it. Right? Yeah, but the thing about that, and I'm not saying this is the case with her, it's really easy to break those rules because there's not anything stopping you. And if you wanted to go do some stabbing or you wanted to go, like with stalkers, they're like, oh, there's a restraining order on them. Yeah. They're already irrational. A rational thing is to tell them, hey, you can't go this close to this person legally. That's an irrational person would go, I shall not go close to that person because I will get in trouble. An irrational person goes, well, I'm still irrational, so whatever you say to me doesn't matter.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah. I feel like if someone is a serious threat like that, and they could be harmful, then their punishment is you have to wear a little collar thing. And if you get to a certain point near their house, you get shocked.

[Bobby Bones]

The problem with that is two things. One, there has to be a shocker. Then put in the house of the person a base.

[Eddie]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

You with me?

[Amy Brown]

Well, yeah. You set it up like a wire, like a dog fence.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. So you have to put a shocker in. Two, you gotta, like, charge it. Keep batteries on it always. And I never. I mean, I suck at that. My phone almost died last night.

[Eddie]

What about those? Like probation, you know, people that have ankle beeps? Yeah. Like those need to be charged.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah. I think you have to stand there and charge it, like, while you're there.

[Eddie]

With it for like three months.

[Amy Brown]

Or is it a battery? I don't know. I feel like I watched on a show. Like a girl had to just be by the outlet and she was like, oh, God. But I mean, it was a scripted show, so I don't know if it's reality.

[Bobby Bones]

So you don't take it off? Not from the ones that I've seen. Because there's a big deal about cutting them off. You can't cut them off. That's a great question. I do believe you charge them.

[Amy Brown]

Monitors need to be charged regularly, usually daily for a couple of hours using a provided charger that plugs into a wall. Out. And if you don't, it could lead to violation of your monitoring agreement. Yeah, because if it dies.

[Bobby Bones]

You saw a girl with her leg, like, up on an outlet.

[Amy Brown]

Yeah. Like plugged in, like the cord.

[Bobby Bones]

I know, I. I get it. I know. That's.

[Eddie]

That's stuck to the wall.

[Amy Brown]

It was on. What's that show? Morgan with the mom. Regina and Georgie. Georgie, Regina. Ginny and Georgia. Ginny and Georgia. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Cartman Cardhart. Regina.

[Amy Brown]

No, it's Akman.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's not.

[Eddie]

No. Rock Em sock' em Occam. It's Occam's razor.

[Amy Brown]

What'd I say, Eddie?

[Lunchbox]

It actually worked.

[Amy Brown]

You're right, Cartman. Well, dang, I already forgot it again.

[Eddie]

That's because yours was too. It was too complicated.

[Bobby Bones]

Ackman's blade.

[Amy Brown]

No, it's not Occam Sockum.

[Eddie]

There you go. Rock Em Sock.

[Amy Brown]

Occam's Razor.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go. Let's do some voicemails number one, please.

[Caller]

Lunchbox. And the whole food situation.

[Amy Brown]

Dude, if you didn't bring anything, you don't eat.

[Caller]

That is just common knowledge in my opinion. We had a dip day at work where everybody brought dips to share. I didn't bring anything, so I didn't eat any dip. That is all. Have a great day.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go. I think we all agree.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Lunchbox]

You also mean different things to your company. And I think we have a job where I can't bring food for a picnic that's at, you know, noon. Chips, things that are at 5am when.

[Bobby Bones]

They'Re having hot food, you can actually walk downstairs. I'm talking about a 48 second elevator ride.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And get some food and bring it right back up.

[Eddie]

And if you want to reheat something, you can use something called the microwave.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Well, there was all fresh. Like it was like they just got to work and put it out. So, I mean, I don't know. I just felt it was a little disrespectful.

[Bobby Bones]

Give me number two.

[Lunchbox]

I would love to hear some fun facts about movies.

[Bobby Bones]

I'll go first.

[Lunchbox]

The original version of Scarface was rated X. It was because of extreme graphic and violence and drug use.

[Bobby Bones]

And they had to send it back.

[Lunchbox]

Four times before they got to the R rated.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, that's it. Love the show. Bye. Thank you. I appreciate that. X is a weird one because that really doesn't happen now.

[Eddie]

Rated X.

[Bobby Bones]

It doesn't get rated. Like porn doesn't have a rating. It's just porn. I think like NC17, right? Is. Yeah. I just watched an unrated movie in theaters. Or unrated, I guess they don't really do.

[Lunchbox]

But there's unrated movie. I've never heard that.

[Amy Brown]

But that means like kids shouldn't go.

[Bobby Bones]

It just means. No, I don't think they put any regulation on it at all. Like it could even be a cartoon with no rules.

[Amy Brown]

So there's not a gift?

[Bobby Bones]

No, there is. I'm just saying unrated means they decided whatever they were doing, they didn't even want to put it through the process. Okay, well, this one's pretty graphic and there's some nudity. So I think it has to kind of do with the content. Unrated means they. They knew it was gonna be bad, so they didn't even put it. I'm talking about non. Non rated is what I saw. NC17 pretty much.

[Eddie]

What about mature? I've seen that one. Ma, that's more TV.

[Amy Brown]

Mature audiences.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. That's not what a movie rating that's just like, for.

[Amy Brown]

That's like, for teens. Like, our parents know, there's mature content.

[Eddie]

I almost thought that was really bad. Mature is the best.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, I'm pretty immature. I don't know if I can handle this. Even though you're an adult. Next up, number three.

[Caller]

My husband married me because I'm as psychotic as he is about football. Amy, come on. This is the season. This is it. It's like Christmas. It's the most wonderful time of the year. Football starting.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go.

[Eddie]

Amen.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go, Amy.

[Amy Brown]

I mean, I feel like I'm doing my best to try. I'm trying.

[Bobby Bones]

Give me one more. Number four.

[Caller]

I work at a gas station, and I've worked there for probably about five years now. And I've noticed that a lot of the winners, not all the time, but at least 70, 75 of the time. If you have the white line on the ticket, it's gonna be a winner. It's either the one before it or the one after it. And I know this to be a fact because I cash them every day.

[Eddie]

Hold on.

[Bobby Bones]

Like somebody on Facebook writing crap just to get engagement. That's not a fact.

[Eddie]

Is she talking about scratch?

[Bobby Bones]

Can you imagine if that was a fact?

[Eddie]

Well, it sounds very confident about it.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, trust me from social media, because you're confident does not mean you're right. I'm sure that's happened a bit. And. But if that were something, they would lose millions of dollars. And she's the one that knows. That would be something that somebody high up knows.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

That designs. So that is. I can tell you, that is not a fact.

[Eddie]

Maybe they thought no one would ever notice. But she's.

[Bobby Bones]

She's the one.

[Eddie]

She's the one.

[Bobby Bones]

But that is an example of what social media is. People just going, no, this is a fact. That's absolutely not a fact.

[Lunchbox]

Where's the. I'm trying to see the white line. I'm looking up.

[Eddie]

Is it a scratch out?

[Bobby Bones]

What is it?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it's scratch off. There's a whole Reddit thread about this.

[Bobby Bones]

White line theory, but I don't see a white. I grab both that sit on the white line. One of them actually has some money on it. Doesn't work at them all. Trust me, though, I know somebody else. Yeah, it's.

[Eddie]

You know, me.

[Lunchbox]

I don't see a. Oh, down there.

[Bobby Bones]

It's like the connector of the two. Yeah, it's the connector of the two tickets.

[Eddie]

No, that's scratched off.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no.

[Lunchbox]

Ready?

[Bobby Bones]

No, but there are white lines. Because it's. It, it's. It doesn't matter.

[Lunchbox]

That's cool.

[Eddie]

Oh, at the bottom.

[Lunchbox]

Very bottom. Bottom. So now when you go in you say, do you have any white lines?

[Bobby Bones]

Hey. So they wouldn't lose money, sell you cocaine.

[Lunchbox]

That's a bad idea.

[Eddie]

They wouldn't lose money. They wouldn't lose money because you'd have to buy, keep buying until you got to that white line.

[Bobby Bones]

People would know. People would know. If that were real, that means somebody was purposefully making that the case. And then that means there would be people out there that knew that that were they could go buy a whole roll of it. Them true, not real. So I bet some of them connected to white lines do win. But some of them not connected also win. Mike, what are you seeing on this? Yeah, I'm saying there could be different color lines too. Oh my. Blue lines.

[Eddie]

That's awesome.

[Commercial Announcer]

Just look for a line.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang. One other thing I saw was there was a guy, he is in trouble because he went and I think he stole a Rolex. I was thinking about this because of Eddie, Eddie's Rolex that Amy spotted. Rich Eddie, Rich Eddie, secretly rich Eddie, secretly rich. A 29 year old news reporter in Florida stolen, pawned a $16,000 Rolex from his neighbor while the person was traveling.

[Amy Brown]

Whoa.

[Bobby Bones]

Like went stole it? It's like the Jon Hamm show. Yeah. And then went and pawned it. Yeah.

[Eddie]

He was a news reporter, the guy that stole it.

[Bobby Bones]

According to police, 29 year old Michael Hudak is accused of stealing a $16,000 Rolex from his neighbor while the neighbor was traveling. He's a reporter at WSVN ABC Miami in South Florida. Wow. Police said the victim was in Spain for two weeks and was aware that his neighbor had a spare key for emergency use only. This is why I don't give my neighbor the key. I don't know them.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it's good.

[Bobby Bones]

I let Amy know them. I don't know them. They come over, next thing you know they're stealing my watches.

[Eddie]

Everything.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Anyway, that's a crazy story, huh? Local 10 with that story. You wearing your fancy watch today?

[Eddie]

No, man, it's just normal day. Not wearing it today.

[Bobby Bones]

Rich Eddie, secretly rich Eddie, secretly rich Eddie.

[Amy Brown]

No important meetings?

[Eddie]

No. Nope.

[Amy Brown]

Is today Thursday? Thursday. Yes, I do. It's our couch talks. We get listeners send in questions. And Kat, my co host, is a therapist, so she has to do a disclaimer at the top of every episode though, reminding people that, like, she's not a therapist, she is a therapist.

[Bobby Bones]

That'd be the weirdest disclaimer. I'm not a therapist.

[Amy Brown]

No, but because she's a therapist. But also we don't have every tidbit of information, so it's like she's like, please don't use this as a replacement for therapy. But yeah, we had a listener emailing in about some family drama, so we tried to walk her through that and it's more so just like anytime you're supporting a loved one, but then you feel emotionally drained by it. So protecting your boundaries and it's feeling things with Amy and Kat.
