Bobby Bones
Hello, America's sweetheart. Johnny Knoxville here. I want to tell you about my new true crime podcast, Crimeless Hillbilly Heist from Smartless Media, Campside media and big money players.
Lunchbox
It's a wild tale about a gang.
Bobby Bones
Of high functioning nitwits who somehow pulled off America's third largest cash heist.
Lunchbox
Kind of like Robin Hood, except for the part where he steals from the rich and gives to the poor. I'm not that generous.
Bobby Bones
It's a damn near inspiring true story for anyone out there who's ever shot for the moon, then just totally muffed up the landing. They stole $17 million and had not bought a ticket to help him escape. So we're sitting like, oh, God, what do we do?
Amy
What do we do?
Lunchbox
That was dumb. People, do not follow my example.

Lunchbox
All right, it's the Bobby Bone Show, y'.
Bobby Bones
All. Okay, so part tours. Thank you for being here. We were talking on part one, what you may have heard about Lunchbox, and he goes to the whole process of getting on prices, right? And he told us he didn't get on. Didn't get on. Contestants row.
Eddie
Just.
Bobby Bones
But. But did have a great time. Like, you had it. Would you go back and do it again if you knew you couldn't get on the show? Was it that fun?
Lunchbox
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Oh, wow. So when you go back. Because you're going to try to go back today, I assume. Yep.
Lunchbox
Today.
Bobby Bones
And you don't get on it, it's still fun. You're still looking forward to it.
Lunchbox
It's still fun. I'm telling you. I thought when I going in, I was like, it's going to be so stupid. Like, even if you don't get on, it's not even worth it. But just the party atmosphere and everybody just in a good mood. There's no one angry. That's what's great, is there's no rude people. Everybody's just, like, jumping around and talking and sharing their life stories and making lifelong friends.
Eddie
Oh, you made lifelong friends.
Amy
Okay, seriously, Marilyn, how many numbers did you get?
Lunchbox
One.
Bobby Bones
You actually got a number? Who was it? Your person for today. You're gonna try to be on with your lover?
Lunchbox
Nah. Was it the blonde?
Bobby Bones
It was Marilyn. It was Marilyn.
Amy
Why'd you get her a number?
Bobby Bones
How old's Marilyn?
Lunchbox
She's probably, like, 80.
Eddie
Oh, she's older. Okay.
Amy
What are y' all gonna talk about?
Lunchbox
Yeah, I don't know. She's wrote it on a piece of toilet paper and with her lipstick and sent it down.
Amy
No, she didn't.
Lunchbox
Amy. I mean, I don't know what you want me to say.
Amy
Okay, so she wrote her number on toilet paper with lipstick.
Lunchbox
Amy, I'll take a picture and send it to you. Do not post it. But yeah, of course I won't post it.
Eddie
Do not post it.
Bobby Bones
Like Amy's gonna post Marilyn's number.
Eddie
Was she by herself? Lunchbox.
Lunchbox
No, she was with her daughter.
Bobby Bones
So you are gonna go back today?
Lunchbox
Yeah, I'm going back today.
Bobby Bones
And what are you gonna do about the partner thing?
Lunchbox
I'm just gonna try to go as a single. I. I don't have anything, and so I'm just gonna go and I'm gonna show up and see what they say.
Bobby Bones
Are we sure they're. They're doing partners only? I know. We watched video. I saw videos yesterday. It was.
Lunchbox
Right. That's what I mean.
Eddie
You didn't ask yesterday. Yesterday, like, hey, this is what.
Lunchbox
No, Eddie, I can't go in with a loser's mentality. I can't be like, hey, if you guys don't pick me, can I come back tomorrow and be a single?
Eddie
I see that.
Lunchbox
Like, I don't want them to think.
Bobby Bones
I'm going to homecoming by yourself.
Amy
Okay. If Marilyn's lipstick is black. Sharpie.
Eddie
Oh, so she's goth.
Amy
Yeah. And if she uses. If she uses paper towel as toilet paper, then.
Lunchbox
Oh, that's not toilet paper. That's paper towel. Whatever.
Eddie
You knew.
Lunchbox
Same thing.
Amy
It is a very thick napkin towel situation. And Sharpie and no lipstick.
Bobby Bones
Why did the lipstick thing even.
Eddie
I don't know.
Bobby Bones
Why was that even said?
Lunchbox
Someone next to me said it was.
Amy
Lipstick, but it's clearly Sharpie.
Eddie
Lunchbox. This is why we can't take you serious, dude.
Lunchbox
No, no, literally, the guy that. They passed it down the row and.
Amy
They were making a joke like, hey, she.
Lunchbox
Oh, I didn't. I didn't. I didn't get the joke.
Amy
Did they say toilet paper, too? You should believe. Whatever people you just didn't even look at.
Lunchbox
They said, he. She wrote it on toilet paper with her lipstick. Hey.
Bobby Bones
So you are going to go back today as a single?
Lunchbox
I'm going back as a single.
Amy
Okay, well, we just have to. That is.
Bobby Bones
It is what it is. Do you promise today you're going back as a single? I promise In NLR Today you're going back as a single.
Lunchbox
Nlr I'm going back as a single.
Bobby Bones
Okay. I do want to play some voicemails real quick.
Amy
Number one, this is Colleen, and I.
Bobby Bones
Just want to say I feel so bad for Lunchbox. He sounds so stressed out on this.
Amy
Price is Right thing.
Bobby Bones
I hope he gets picked.
Amy
He deserves to get picked.
Bobby Bones
I hope he gets picked. I don't know that he deserves to get picked, but I do hope he gets picked. Did you see a lot of other people there that had been many times or had even been a few times in a row? Like, your plan was to do?
Lunchbox
Yes. The. There was two ladies that they were on the day before. They were there the day before. I saw a couple from Wisconsin. They have now kind of semi retired to California. They're Green Bay packers fans. This is their third time in the past couple months they've gone.
Bobby Bones
Do you think it gives you an advantage, though, to go three days in a row or everyone is going a bunch of days in a row?
Lunchbox
I feel like it gives you an advantage because it shows the producers, hey, this person really means it. Like, they really want to be on the show because.
Bobby Bones
But if people coming back, you could say that, too. Like, they've. They've taken money and spent two trips.
Lunchbox
Yeah, that's true. Because the lady next to me had lying. Like, when I went in that room that I talked about earlier, and she didn't have a job the day before. Then she got hired. She was there for the second day in a row, and she didn't get on.
Bobby Bones
Are you laughing or yawning?
Amy
Well, I'm.
Bobby Bones
If you're laughing, I want to know what you're laughing at.
Amy
No. Well, Marilyn, I just found her.
Bobby Bones
Oh, you did?
Eddie
You looked her up?
Amy
Yeah.
Eddie
Oh, sweet.
Amy
Was she hitting on your lunchbox, or does she want to be like your mom?
Lunchbox
No, she wasn't hitting on me.
Eddie
Why did he say like that?
Lunchbox
She.
Bobby Bones
We can't believe anything he says.
Lunchbox
So the reason. The reason she gave me the number. I don't know why she didn't just ask me for the picture. Like, we were walking around the room, but I had taken a picture.
Bobby Bones
Now we get to the actual bottom.
Lunchbox
Of it, and I thought she was giving me her number because she was like, oh, we want to stay in touch. And she goes, you idiot. I just wanted you to text me the picture.
Amy
Oh, Marilyn has a great sweater on the handmade.
Eddie
What does it say?
Amy
Matching shirts.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Sweater that's got Drew Carey on it.
Eddie
Oh, that's cool.
Amy
You got a lot of pictures. This Marilyn.
Lunchbox
And on the. Well, she was, like, right next to me in line. There was a group of us that we all bonded because we were all right next to each other. And her shirt was. I came to see Bob with her mom in, like, 2005, maybe. I don't know. And now we're here to see Drew. And Drew was on the front. Bob was on the back.
Bobby Bones
Oh, cute.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Are you going. Are you going in the tuxedo again today?
Lunchbox
Yeah, going in the tux. But I'm not going to be in people's face today. I'm A change, man.
Bobby Bones
You had a breakthrough. Maybe you're. Maybe you should approach this for life, not just prices, right? Have you thought about that?
Lunchbox
No, I didn't. No.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
Because maybe that's not what they're looking for. The price is right. Maybe they don't want the.
Bobby Bones
And the same with life.
Eddie
Maybe they don't want. Maybe we don't want you yelling all.
Bobby Bones
The time like screaming at celebrities and recording them every second you're near them when they don't know you're recording them.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but people like to see that.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, people, people.
Lunchbox
People like to see the access to the celebrity world.
Bobby Bones
How is your tux? Still clean?
Lunchbox
Yeah, it's still clean. Like, I mean, I didn't have anything to eat in it. I had a couple granola bars and pretzels.
Eddie
Water.
Lunchbox
Are you. I'm telling you guys, I was there. I didn't get back to my hotel till 6:30 last night. It was a seven hour process.
Bobby Bones
Did you go right to bed?
Lunchbox
Nah.
Bobby Bones
Margaritas.
Amy
Margaritas.
Eddie
Is that Mexican restaurant?
Lunchbox
I did go to another Mexican restaurant.
Bobby Bones
Let me play some more voicemails. Number two, please think that we need to leave the trivia as is. Yes, Eddie may be winning a lot.
Amy
But look at the losses he has.
Bobby Bones
To deal with with his cowboys.
Amy
So we kind of have to give.
Lunchbox
Them a win every now and then.
Bobby Bones
Or else life would just be one big loss. Love the show. Thanks, Bye.
Eddie
I agree with that.
Bobby Bones
Fair point. Next up, number three.
Amy
Hey guys, just curious.
Bobby Bones
So Lunchbox went to California and his.
Amy
Wife went with him.
Bobby Bones
So are the in laws babysitting the.
Lunchbox
Kids again and is Lunchbox gonna pay them some money?
Amy
Was that discussed up front?
Bobby Bones
Just checking. Thank you. You wanna revisit this Lunchbox?
Lunchbox
Yeah, we discussed it. My parents, the ones that are watching the kids and my parents are legit. They don't ask for money.
Eddie
They're legit.
Bobby Bones
Her parents aren't. Aren't legit.
Lunchbox
I mean, they're legit, but I mean they're not. I mean when you're asking for money for your grandkids, it's not really.
Eddie
That's odd.
Amy
It's weird.
Eddie
It's odd.
Lunchbox
It's a bad.
Bobby Bones
We don't know that they asked guys.
Eddie
Well, according to his story.
Lunchbox
No, no story.
Bobby Bones
Also was lady trying to hook up with him with a stick on toilet paper.
Lunchbox
I never said she was trying to hook up with me.
Bobby Bones
You said she sent you a lipstick to toilet paper that says somebody's trying to hook up with me.
Lunchbox
Yeah, well, that's what someone Told me.
Bobby Bones
You didn't even look at it.
Amy
He obviously looked at. He sent me a picture of it.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I looked at. I mean, I didn't know that. That wasn't. Guys, I don't know what lipstick looks like on toilet paper.
Amy
Not black Sharpie.
Bobby Bones
That's my point, guys.
Lunchbox
Sharpie. Yeah, it doesn't smell like Sharpie.
Bobby Bones
All right, Ray, next one.
Lunchbox
I'm calling about the segment about Lunchbox being late and leaving Morgan hanging.
Bobby Bones
I cannot believe nobody called him out.
Lunchbox
For not having his own car and relying solely on his wife to get him there.
Bobby Bones
Love the show. Thoughts?
Lunchbox
We've gone over this. I don't have a car. But hey, you know what they give away on the prices, right?
Eddie
A brand new car.
Amy
Come on down.
Lunchbox
I mean, how legit would that be?
Eddie
That would, that would be fate. Lunchbox.
Lunchbox
That. Yes.
Eddie
That would be the reason you were to go there to get yourself a car.
Lunchbox
I mean, that would be, that would be nuts. Yeah, that would be fate. Right, Bobby? Fate.
Amy
Right, Bobby?
Lunchbox
Just think about it.
Bobby Bones
Not a big fake. I'm not a big fate, guys. I'm not the guy to really ask.
Amy
How did you write Bobby that?
Eddie
Yeah, why did you write about it?
Lunchbox
Because I know he doesn't like fate. Guys, that was the joke. That was the humor there.
Eddie
Oh, lipstick on a napkin. Got it.
Lunchbox
No, no, but, but, but, but the thing. Okay, let's discuss this. It could be fate, because let's say I get on today and then I had to win my way onto the stage. And at that moment, it has to be the car giveaway. So is that a little bit of fate?
Bobby Bones
It'd be a lot of fortunate circumstances, and you made a lot of decisions to get you to that point.
Eddie
I mean, but all of it's AKA.
Bobby Bones
Fate, AKA it can be whatever it can't prove. You can't prove either one's right or wrong. Like, you literally can't.
Eddie
Right. You can't.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so do you feel better or worse after day one as far as your prospects of getting on the show?
Lunchbox
I feel worse because I thought.
Amy
That's not what I was expecting.
Eddie
No, I, you can see it in his face.
Bobby Bones
I know, but I, I, I, I.
Lunchbox
Thought my A game was me. My A game was me working the room, never sitting down on my feet the whole day, talking to people, you know, telling stories, you know, like, chiming in on their conversations. And that wasn't it. And so now I'm like, I got to sit back and look and see the people they called up. What did they do that I didn't do.
Bobby Bones
What did they do?
Lunchbox
It's a great question.
Amy
It's more of what didn't they do.
Bobby Bones
Or what were they. Not even what they did. Like what were they. Did they meet a quota of women vs men white people vs non white people on. I don't know.
Eddie
Yeah. Did you, did you look, you observe that?
Lunchbox
Yeah, there was. Yeah, there was like nine people were up.
Bobby Bones
How many whites?
Lunchbox
Probably three.
Bobby Bones
Okay, what was it? What was the breakdown you think it was? It's kind of risky to ask him.
Amy
Yes, it is.
Bobby Bones
It is.
Eddie
And that's why he's going slow, I think.
Lunchbox
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know how to answer this, but any Hispanics? I think one of the ladies was Hispanic, but I don't know for sure there was.
Amy
I mean it also depends, like the.
Bobby Bones
What are you debating between Hispanic and what else? Like where else could you have put her?
Lunchbox
Light skinned black.
Eddie
Yeah. Okay.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
You know what I mean? Yeah. She could have been biracial. I'm not sure exactly. So I don't want to say she was for sure Hispanic.
Bobby Bones
What about her not be straight to gay? Was there any note, anything you noticed there?
Lunchbox
I didn't, I didn't notice any gay.
Bobby Bones
He saw one. He wasn't sure.
Lunchbox
No, I, I, no, really, I, I don't think, I don't know.
Eddie
You didn't notice anything?
Amy
It's hard to say.
Bobby Bones
Could have been.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Could have been gay.
Eddie
Or Hispanic. No, I don't know. Yeah.
Amy
And also, I mean the majority of the room is what, old white people? Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
Bobby Bones
Was it mostly old white people?
Amy
According to your Instagram, it looks like you got a lot of.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
Hanging out.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Amy
There was older women.
Lunchbox
There's a lot of older people. Yes. Was it was a good mix? It was a good mix because there was like the group from Baltimore. It was grandma, daughter, granddaughter. I mean they had three generations. That was pretty cool.
Eddie
Yeah.
Lunchbox
And she, Mary, she worked for the Ravens.
Eddie
Maryland.
Lunchbox
No, no, no. Mary who was from Baltimore.
Bobby Bones
It's a whole different person.
Lunchbox
Yes. Come on, dude. She was there with her daughter and her grandd her and she was talking about how she works for the Ravens and she interviews the people when they're, they're looking for a job there. And I mean I got all these people.
Eddie
Did she get called up? Mary?
Lunchbox
No.
Eddie
Okay, so you met somebody that works for the Dallas Cowboys too? Like.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Eddie
That's weird.
Lunchbox
That's what I'm saying. And we, that's what it Was crazy. And they. They bonded over that. They started talking, and then what's funny is everybody thought me and the Dallas Cowboys lady was together because we came walking up together because I met her in the parking lot. I picked her up.
Eddie
Is she single? Is she going today?
Lunchbox
She is single, but she is on a momcation, so she was driving to San Diego today.
Bobby Bones
What did your wife say when you asked her if she'd go with you?
Lunchbox
She's like, that's a. That's a pass for me.
Eddie
But you told her it was your dream, though?
Lunchbox
Yeah. And she said, I'm good. I think I'm gonna hang out with my cousin. I was like, I mean, I get it.
Amy
That's seven hours.
Bobby Bones
Do you feel like there's less of a chance that you get on today, though, because you're going by yourself?
Lunchbox
I do. I am worried about that. I am worried.
Bobby Bones
Will you get there earlier?
Lunchbox
I am gonna get there earlier because now that I have the tux, I don't have to stress about getting to the tuck store, getting to the place, and.
Amy
Yeah, hold on. Okay. So today's gonna be a different approach. He's trying to be less, not more, but. Okay, we're still gonna wear the tux, but, like, so are you just gonna, like, not mingle at all?
Bobby Bones
Like, what's your. Just sit in the corner. Sit in the corner and suck on your thumb. I'll frown and just stare around at people. Keep your thumb deeply in your mouth and just, like, look at people the whole time.
Amy
Like, what? What? How opposite are you gonna go?
Lunchbox
Like, total opposite. Like, I'm not gonna be like, if people come talk to me, I'll talk. If not, I'll just keep to myself.
Eddie
Can't you just do something in the middle?
Amy
Right? Like, you know, you don't have to go so average. Just be like, chill.
Lunchbox
Like, hey, I thought I was chill yesterday, but obviously I was too much.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I agree. I want you to not talk to a single person. And when a producer looks at you, mime or growl at them. Just do.
Lunchbox
I mean, there were some people that, like, I was just like, why are you here?
Bobby Bones
Because.
Lunchbox
Because, like, when the producers talking to him, they're like, oh, what are you doing? They're like, I. I'm a receptionist.
Bobby Bones
Maybe they just wanted to watch the show.
Lunchbox
Oh, so you don't think. Oh, man, I. Okay, this is mind blowing. You think people come here and they don't want to be on it. They just want to be in the audience?
Bobby Bones
Well, I think if people go with the dream of being on the show. They're prepared to really try to meet that dream and be energetic. And they probably looked it up, and I think some people are just going to, like, experience it, and if they don't get on, that's fine. They don't care as much.
Eddie
Yeah.
Lunchbox
One interesting thing they did, like, when they were, like, resetting the stage is Drew Carey would just come out and, like, take questions from the audience. That was pretty interesting. Didn't know that happened.
Eddie
Did you ask anything?
Lunchbox
No, I didn't have a question. I was like. I asked, hey, are you gonna call my name?
Amy
You did.
Eddie
No, that was a joke.
Lunchbox
No, no, it's a joke.
Eddie
Don't you get it?
Bobby Bones
Funny.
Amy
What? You were.
Lunchbox
So I say it.
Bobby Bones
You go, ha, ha.
Amy
He's acting like he was so jovial and, like, talking to everybody. He's acting like it's so crazy when Drew comes out. Anybody, any questions? He's like, no, why would I ask a question?
Bobby Bones
Do you feel like you want to see the same producers today that you did yesterday, or would you like to have a different batch of producers that have no relationship with the person you were yesterday?
Lunchbox
I think I need new.
Eddie
See, because you ruined it with the old ones.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. There's a scary.
Lunchbox
Obviously, I didn't impress that producer, so I need to have fresh eyes on me, like, a new clean slate.
Amy
But. But does it help if they're like, oh, wait, this guy was here yesterday. He's dedicated.
Lunchbox
See, that's what I thought. But then now I go back and forth. Like I said a minute ago. I'm like, it shows dedication. But then are they like, this dude needs to get a life.
Eddie
You know what's going to help? Lunchbox? Is that both? Yeah, a little bit of both. Yeah. The fact that you went and they saw the tux and they thought that you were going for the Valentine's. I think that's gonna be good this time because, like, now you are dressed according to what they thought and they expected.
Lunchbox
Oh, that's a good point.
Eddie
Did you ask them for their names? Like, producer? Like, what's your name? Danny. Hey, Danny. That way you can have a personal connection with them.
Lunchbox
Oh, should I done that?
Bobby Bones
I think you can always do that in life at all. That always helps.
Eddie
Like, you saw him today. You'd be like, hey, Danny.
Amy
Yeah, that's a good idea. Morgan, what about changing your story today? Like, obviously, that didn't quite work. So are you gonna try and change up your story?
Bobby Bones
Vietnam vet.
Eddie
I like it.
Lunchbox
Well, I'm not gonna do that work, Black Panther. No. Not gonna be that.
Bobby Bones
Wrestler?
Lunchbox
That's a good question. Morgan, I feel like you can make.
Amy
A joke about your wife not wanting to come on with you or something, and maybe they'll feel sorry for you.
Bobby Bones
Like, my wife canceled last minute. Oh, no, she died.
Eddie
Oh, that's good.
Bobby Bones
Oh, you came. And it was always, you guys dream. It was always, you guys dream to come together and. Yeah.
Eddie
Yeah. But she just.
Bobby Bones
She's no longer with us, and so you came by yourself?
Lunchbox
So I, like, have a frame photo of her.
Eddie
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Great.
Amy
Oh, that could be something. Or is she there with him? They just can't see her.
Bobby Bones
Okay, you just went a little too far.
Eddie
Because then he's crazy.
Bobby Bones
Now he's Haley Joel. You went a little too far.
Lunchbox
Okay, they're gonna kick me off the set.
Amy
No, he's like, excuse me. Excuse me. Can you save a seat?
Bobby Bones
No, you can't do that because that's.
Amy
She's here.
Eddie
The frame picture is genius. Like, this is my way.
Bobby Bones
Would you go and say she died and then say, now?
Lunchbox
Here's the problem?
Eddie
No problem.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah. The problem is you're lying.
Eddie
Yes.
Lunchbox
That's a problem.
Eddie
You always lie.
Bobby Bones
Yes. You've lied twice so far in just.
Lunchbox
The last 10 minutes when you said.
Bobby Bones
The old lady sent you a lipstick toilet paper.
Lunchbox
I really thought she did.
Eddie
Okay, what's the problem?
Lunchbox
What if they just Google my wife?
Eddie
Okay, change Facebook now.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Kill her on the Internet.
Amy
Dude, when did she die?
Eddie
You can buy an obituary.
Bobby Bones
No, no. Just put up a Instagram post, rest in peace to my wife.
Eddie
That's all you need.
Amy
What about, like, his wife canceled on him, so he brought his AI girlfriend, and she's in the frame.
Eddie
See, that's just crazy.
Bobby Bones
That'll never make it. That's like Amy's wanting exercise.
Amy
You think so?
Eddie
You don't want to scare the producers.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you know, it's like a middle America family game show. If you're going to go that angle at all, it has to be Dead wife.
Eddie
That's a genius lunchbox. And it was Yalls dream to go together.
Bobby Bones
That's the thing. And this is the tux that you wore at your.
Eddie
I don't know. I like that, too.
Bobby Bones
But the tux may be too new looking. Is my probably right? Right. I think you could get away with. Hey, I'm by myself. My wife wanted to come, but she passed away. And then, like, can you deliver that? Serious? Let's see if you can deliver that. Okay, next person up. What's your name and why you here?
Lunchbox
Yeah, sorry, give me a second. I'm here because it was my wife's. My wife and I's dream to come here together, but I lost her in a car wreck.
Bobby Bones
No, you don't have to go.
Lunchbox
You don't have to go that hard.
Bobby Bones
And you didn't even say your name.
Amy
Car wreck when they chopped her head off.
Lunchbox
Take it easy, dude.
Eddie
Easy.
Lunchbox
With 30 and 18 Wheeler, he started.
Bobby Bones
Just going so over the top with details.
Eddie
It was a drunk driver. Just. Just no details.
Bobby Bones
No. Yeah, and also I said, please say your name and then something about what you do, because they're not going to say, why are you here alone? They're going to ask the same questions. Yes, sir, in the tuxedo. What's your name and what do you do?
Lunchbox
Yeah, my name is Jason Gibble and I'm on a national radio show we broadcast to millions of people every morning. We have a huge audience.
Bobby Bones
No, no, no. Amy asked me the question. Okay.
Amy
Hi, you and the tux. What's your name and what do you do?
Bobby Bones
My name is Lunchbox and I'm on the radio. And as you can see, it's kind of weird. I know I'm dressed in a tux, but this was my wife and I's dream to do this. She is no longer with us, and I just really wanted to make this day special. And even if I don't get on the show, like, this was our dream to be here. So I know everybody else here isn't a couple, but I feel like she's with me in spirit and I'm very excited for the show.
Amy
And you have her picture?
Bobby Bones
I don't think you take the picture.
Eddie
No picture?
Bobby Bones
Nah, I don't think you take a picture. I mean, you can have it in your pocket or something. I don't think you can take a frame picture or anything, but I think that's all you have to do right there.
Amy
He just goes and.
Eddie
Pretty solid.
Amy
Goes to Walgreens and gets one of those framed pictures that already has a woman model.
Eddie
It says 8 by 10 on it.
Bobby Bones
It's not even his life.
Eddie
It's got the price tag. They really think you're crazy.
Amy
It's like our, like, wife with kids. These are our kids.
Eddie
Oh, no.
Bobby Bones
And they're Asian. It's like a whole Asian family. It's not even him at the picture.
Amy
Oh, okay. Well, Lunchbox, did you hear how Bobby did that?
Lunchbox
Yeah, that was pretty good, actually.
Bobby Bones
Okay, we're not even saying do that.
Eddie
It's tricky because, you know, they just asked you what your name and what you did, but you've got to squeeze in your backstory quick.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Without it feeling like a squeeze. Like, I don't feel like I squeezed that in. I just had. I knew I had 15 seconds, so I said, here's my name. I do this. And it's always been my dream to do this with my wife. I mean, it's not even like I'm forcing it in. It's just part of the story you're telling, right?
Lunchbox
Yeah. And I think the key is I need to talk. Even though they don't ask, just tell until they stop you.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Amy
Yes. That's exactly what you need to do.
Bobby Bones
Also, we're not saying you have to do the dead wife thing. It was just an interesting angle for.
Eddie
The couples thing because, too, like, you probably don't want to be too sad.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Because they don't want.
Bobby Bones
You're doing where you're like, they don't.
Eddie
Want a sad person.
Amy
You're happy to be there because it's what you've always wanted to do, and you're getting to live it out.
Bobby Bones
Like, would you consider this angle?
Lunchbox
Yeah, it's not a bad angle. Like, because, you know, when you watch these reality shows, most people have a sad story.
Bobby Bones
And you lied to get on TV before.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I have lied to get on TV before.
Eddie
You're right.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. There's really no difference. Like, he lied hard.
Eddie
Like, you're good at this.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. This is, like, your thing. I mean, it may have been 20 years, 30 years. I don't know how long it's been since you did that, but yeah, it's kind of the sequel to you lying to get on television.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
All right. My wife's dead.
Eddie
But it ends after the day. He goes, you're dead today.
Bobby Bones
He's gonna method act. All leading up to it.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Again, we're not committing you to doing that, but that would be an angle to consider. I don't know that I would do that angle. But if you feel desperate when you get there and everybody else is in a couple and you just want to get on the show, you may also could look at this as just an investment into tomorrow.
Amy
They would never get into this story on the show, though, right?
Bobby Bones
Sure they would.
Lunchbox
Oh, they're not.
Bobby Bones
They're not going to run a whole package of, like, B roll of him and his wife.
Eddie
What's the problem, Amy?
Bobby Bones
But it would be like, if you get on, Drew will be like, hey, so where Are you from. Hey, man. From Nashville, Tennessee. And my wife always wanted to be on the show. She's no longer with us, but I can't wait to do this for her.
Eddie
Oh, well, let's do this for her. All right, let's go.
Amy
Even if they pick you, if they've already picked you, you can drop the.
Bobby Bones
No, you can't, because that's why they want you on there.
Lunchbox
Why would you drop it, Amy?
Amy
Because he can say it to the producers, like off the. But now we're talking about going on national television and him saying this.
Eddie
Okay, okay, I just thought of a problem.
Bobby Bones
Hold on, though. But Amy, you can't. You can't be picked for something and then not use what you were picked for because that's the reason they pick you.
Lunchbox
I mean.
Bobby Bones
No, no.
Amy
I mean, they already picked you, though. I mean, could he say, like, my wife's not with us today?
Bobby Bones
No. Okay, semantics. No, no, no. What? You could. You have to. If they're picking you and you're the only single, you have to use that on the show or they wouldn't put.
Eddie
You on the show.
Amy
This was always my wife's dream to be here.
Bobby Bones
This is what I just go with a lie.
Eddie
What's the problem?
Bobby Bones
You either go with a lie, which is what you probably do, or first of all, don't lie.
Amy
Cause then what if they find out and then they pull the episode?
Bobby Bones
They're not gonna pull the whole episode because one person lied, okay? Cause it costs hundreds of thousands of dollars to even put an episode up.
Eddie
And it's Hollywood. Come on.
Bobby Bones
Everything all the time.
Amy
Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Or what you do is you lie to get there. And when he calls you up, you'll be like, drew, guess what? I lied to get here. Woohoo. My wife's alive and watching the home right now. What up? Hey, honey.
Lunchbox
That's an.
Eddie
That's interesting.
Bobby Bones
That's an angle. But you cannot use the angle they.
Amy

A whole lot of guests.
Eddie
The great Paul Scheer made me feel good. I'm like, oh, wow, Angela and Jenna, I am so psyched you're here.
Amy
What was that like for you to soft launch into the show?
Eddie
Sorry, Jenna. I'll be asking the questions today.
Amy
I forgot whose podcast we were doing.

Bobby Bones
And I help a man atone for an armed robbery he committed at 14 years old.
Lunchbox
And so I pointed the gun at.
Eddie
Him and said, this isn't a joke.
Bobby Bones
And he got down. And I remember feeling kind of a surge of like, okay, this is power. Plus. My old friend Gregor and his brother tried to solve my problems through hypnotism.
Amy
We could give you a whole brand.

Bobby Bones
Michael Lewis here.
Eddie
My book, the Big Short tells the story of the buildup and birth of.
Bobby Bones
The US housing market back in 2008. It follows a few unlikely but lucky.
Eddie
People who saw the real estate market for the black hole it would become and eventually made billions of dollars from that perception.
Bobby Bones
It was like feeding the monster, said Eisman. We fed the monster until it blew up.
Eddie
The monster was exploding. Yet on the streets of Manhattan, there.
Bobby Bones
Was no sign anything important had just happened. Now, 15 years after the Big Short's.
Eddie
Original release and a decade after it.
Bobby Bones
Became an Academy Award winning movie, I've.
Eddie
Recorded an audiobook edition for the very first time. The Big Short story. What it means when people start betting against the market and who really pays for an unchecked financial system is as.
Bobby Bones
Relevant today as it's ever been, offering.
Eddie
Invaluable insight into the current economy and also today's politics.
Bobby Bones
Get the Big Short now at Pushkin.
Eddie
Fm Audiobooks or wherever audiobooks are sold. I like that second one because I was thinking, the problem is, what if it's the same producer? And he's like, I know, Lunchbox. Like we met yesterday.
Amy
But he didn't say he was married yesterday.
Eddie
I know.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, he probably didn't give that story at all.
Amy
Did you have your wedding ring on?
Lunchbox
Yeah, I did. I was trying to look like. But. But I can keep it. I. I still wear it.
Amy
Yeah, yeah, yeah, like you're.
Eddie
So you didn't give him a backstory yesterday?
Lunchbox
No, I didn't say anything about wife.
Eddie
Okay, that could work then.
Bobby Bones
Look, I don't think that I would do that. It's. It's funny.
Eddie
That's Lunchbox dude.
Bobby Bones
This.
Eddie
This is the stuff he does.
Bobby Bones
He lied to get on Jerry Springer. He lied to us this morning. The guy will lie, no doubt about it.
Lunchbox
I'm so confused. When did I lie to you?
Eddie
You lie all the time.
Bobby Bones
You lied. You said there was lipstick on a piece of toilet paper from an old lady insinuating us that she was trying to have sex with you, correct?
Lunchbox
Oh, I never said that.
Eddie
And you said you were gonna make a lot of money on something called the palette. We never made any money.
Lunchbox
No, you didn't make money. You lied. Now you just lied.
Bobby Bones
We made it take us, like, years to get it. We could have made more money. Okay, that's what's up.
Eddie
He's smelling the lipstick.
Lunchbox
It doesn't smell like Sharpie, man.
Bobby Bones
You think it was black lipstick?
Amy
Okay, then it might just be a normal black marker that doesn't smell as strong.
Lunchbox
I don't know. All right, ask your wife how she.
Bobby Bones
Feels about you saying she died to get on the show. Okay, this turns into a Netflix series where he actually kills her to try to get on the show.
Eddie
Method actor.
Lunchbox
No, you know, it ain't gonna. Don't worry about that. I'm.
Bobby Bones
How many hoodies did you bring with you for the trip?
Eddie
Looks like just one. Is that a hoodie?
Lunchbox
I brought the. I brought this one, and I. I had a. I have a pullover, but it doesn't have a hood. But I.
Bobby Bones
You don't like that one as much. You're a big hood guy.
Lunchbox
No. And I don't like this. This is light.
Bobby Bones
We can't even see you. It looks like you're camouflaging to the wall.
Lunchbox
I know. It's pretty cool. Oh, it does kind of look bad with that background. Pretty cool.
Amy
What price would you pay to get on the prices.
Bobby Bones
Right. Murder.
Lunchbox
Oh, is that the name of the Netflix.
Bobby Bones
Well, document docu series? The price you pay.
Amy
And then you're in jail.
Eddie
I mean, you got to do all that.
Amy
Like, that's the price you pay.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. You have to go if you really want it. There's a lot of sacrifice involved.
Amy
We're a little twisted.
Eddie
Well, that's funny. That's funny. How's the weather over there, dude? Like, how's Hollywood?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. What celebrities have you seen?
Lunchbox
So I haven't been anywhere, guys, I'm telling you.
Eddie
But you're in the lot, right? Like. Like, stars are walking around everywhere.
Lunchbox
I didn't see anybody. I literally walked from one building 200 yards to another building and onto the set.
Amy
To the Mexican restaurants, though, right?
Lunchbox
Yeah. There was no one there. No one.
Bobby Bones
There has to be, like, what people feel like when they come to Nashville.
Eddie
They don't see Aldine anywhere.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
But maybe. I mean, yesterday was a long day. I mean, maybe it'll be quicker. Maybe. Maybe I'll get out to Rodeo Drive tonight.
Eddie
Do you have priority today, too, or, like, all three days?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Eddie
Good.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Eddie
All right.
Bobby Bones
Well, okay. Can't wait to hear the story in.
Lunchbox
Rodeo Drive where the celebrities hang out.
Amy
That's where the fancy shopping shops. Oh, man.
Bobby Bones
Suppose I heard there'll be rich people there.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Eddie
You can go to the movie studios and hang out by the gate, see who drives in and out.
Lunchbox
Really?
Bobby Bones
You can stand on the corner. They can't stop you from doing that at the CBS lot.
Lunchbox
Yeah, because I know where the studios here. The WB's right across the street. I don't know.
Bobby Bones
Thanks. Probably Keenan and Kel.
Eddie
Yeah. Charmed.
Bobby Bones
The cast of Charmilano. The voice of the Tasmanian devil.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Do some big ones. Are you him?
Eddie
That'd be cool, man.
Bobby Bones
Okay, let's. Let's do stories. Amy.
Amy
So New York health officials, they confirmed that someone that lives there on Long island has been bitten by an infected mosquito with the chikungunga virus.
Bobby Bones
Don't know the virus.
Amy
Well, can't say it's the first. It's the first case in America. Chick ungo.
Bobby Bones
I need to know what that virus is.
Amy
Yeah. Fever, joint pain, headache, muscle pain, joint swelling, rashes. Rarely fatal, but it's gonna cause you some discomfort for a few weeks. And we are the first case here. It started in China, the Chikanga virus. Chicken.
Eddie
Say that again.
Amy
Chikunga. Gunya.
Eddie
Chika gunya.
Amy
Oh, chicken. Gunya.
Bobby Bones
Chikungunya.
Eddie
Chikungunya virus.
Bobby Bones
Chikungunya.
Eddie
Okay. And you get bit by what?
Amy
A mosquito. An infected mosquito.
Bobby Bones
Maybe that's your angle. Lunchbox. So you got the Chikununya virus, and it's your last run before you'll be.
Lunchbox
Like, well, get out of here.
Amy
Well, at least that's how they think that this particular person contracted it. But they tested positive, and it's the first case, so I don't know if it's something that's gonna, like, start to spread and we're gonna see more of it, so just.
Bobby Bones
We'll be looking out for it.
Amy
Put on your repellent lunchbox.
Bobby Bones
What do you have?
Lunchbox
Yeah, I just want to talk about how crazy women are, because this is crazy. That guy that killed the health care guy. Luigi.
Bobby Bones
Yes. The guy who killed the CEO. Yes.
Lunchbox
Yes. He has received over $40,000 in prison cash, along with hundreds of letters from women just saying, I love you. I love you. How are all these women sending him $40,000 for his little commissary? That's nuts.
Bobby Bones
I Don't know that it's the women sending him the commissary. I think it's just general people who are like, screw the system, screw CEOs with the money. Now the letters. Still people.
Lunchbox
Hundreds a day.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, he's a good looking guy. And people are people in general. It's weird when they're drawn to killers.
Amy
Yeah, very.
Bobby Bones
But yeah, the commissary thing, I believe is from a different group of people. Oh, can you spend the commissary? Like if you have 40,000, is there like a limit? You can spend a day. I'd go and buy the whole thing and then I'd be the commissary.
Amy
Oh, yeah, you come shop for me now?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I mean, that's what I do. Oh, just say you're out of prison, lunchbox. We come out just more themes. You just got out of prison and.
Lunchbox
Does that scare him though?
Bobby Bones
Looking at you now?
Amy
You were wrongly convicted. Yeah, yeah, Justice.
Lunchbox
And that was my crime.
Bobby Bones
The white van you had was.
Lunchbox
No, no, we ain't doing that. We ain't doing that. We ain't doing white man.
Amy
What was his crime? What was his crime?
Bobby Bones
Well, you know what the crime was, but it wasn't him. And he stands by that to this day.
Amy
Okay, Morgan, did you guys see the video of the San Diego Zoo gorilla breaking the glass?
Eddie
Yes.
Lunchbox
That's crazy, dude.
Eddie
There's a bunch of people.
Amy
So Denny, he's a 10 year old gorilla and there's a bunch of guests there hanging out. And he broke through three layers of tempered glass and he was just out there right next to all the.
Bobby Bones
He broke all the way through?
Amy
Yep.
Eddie
I thought he like shattered it. Shattered?
Bobby Bones
But he got through it.
Eddie
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Amy
It was just like that. People were right there, though.
Bobby Bones
Oh, wait then. Okay, then explain it to me. So he hits it and breaks it, but can't get through it.
Eddie
Nah. Yeah, he really like shattered the whole thing. Yeah, dude, he runs like a linebacker who.
Lunchbox
A boom.
Eddie
Hits it and then he backs off. And then they see the shattered glass.
Bobby Bones
Was he like. Or was he angry?
Eddie
No, I think it was angry.
Bobby Bones
Oh, let me see this. He's big gorilla charges toward visitors, cracks glass. I don't think I've been waiting around to see what happened after.
Amy
People are just standing out.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And then, man, can you imagine what. What that thing would do to a.
Eddie
Human body to destroy it?
Bobby Bones
It would just take it. It would just take it, rip it apart. Like, literally the strength to just pick it, put two hands on it and rip it apart.
Eddie
Dude, the Memphis Zoo is one of the best zoos I've ever been to. Like, they have silverback gorillas there and monsters, and they just look at you. Because I don't know if a lot of people go to that zoo. So when they see people, they're like, oh, hey, what's up? Like, they look at you, and they kind of look down. They look back at you. It's pretty cool. I've never interacted with a gorilla like that before. I was like. I was there with them for, like, 30 minutes.
Bobby Bones
I haven't seen a video. You see the one about the lion with a little kid? The lion, like, tries to eat the little kid, like, through the glass. Yeah, it's pretty good. Eddie.
Eddie
Man. Mackenzie Scott. Jeff Bezos, ex. She's still just giving money away. I just saw that she gave 63 million to Morgan State University, which is the largest donation they've ever received in, like, their whole life as a university. But, man, I mean, she just continues to give away. She's got $32 billion, and she has, as she has said that she's going to give away most of it.
Amy
Yeah, I think she's already donated, like, 19 billion of.
Eddie
Says here that she's given away almost 20 billion to more than 2,500 nonprofits. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
That's crazy.
Eddie
And. And she's gonna give all that away and then have a bunch of money still?
Bobby Bones
Like, a bunch? Yeah. Yeah. That's good.
Eddie
I think that's so cool.
Bobby Bones
It'd be so cool to have all that money to give away.
Eddie
It would. Like, and then you get to pick and choose. Like, I'm gonna give them. I'm gonna make their life. I'm gonna change their life.
Bobby Bones
You could do it on a smaller scale.
Eddie
Oh, man. My hundred dollars isn't gonna change their life.
Amy
That's the attitude.
Bobby Bones
You say it is, but 60.
Eddie
$60 million change somebody's life for sure.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
That school is like, wow, this is amazing. We're gonna be able to build this, build that. What are they gonna do my hundred?
Bobby Bones
You can help, like, three people. Don't make Amy hit you with starfish.
Eddie
Sorry. Oh, what's that story?
Amy
I mean, the little boy was walking on the beach, and a bunch of starfish have been washed up on shore. He started picking them up one by one, throwing them back in the ocean. Old man comes out, he's like, what are you doing? Don't you see there's thousands of starfish here? Like, there's no way you can get them all back in the ocean. The boy picked up a starfish, threw it in the ocean, looked at the old man, said, just made a difference for that one.
Eddie
Dang. That's the $100. That's cool.
Amy
Well, also, I mean, you think about it too, Eddie. Like, brick by brick. You got 100, Morgan's got 100, Bobby's got more than 100.
Eddie
Gosh, that's.
Lunchbox
Sorry.
Amy
And then a brick, a brick by itself is. That's not very impressive.
Bobby Bones
That's unfair. You're only going to give yourself 100 to give away. I think you need to relax and go a little higher, too, if you're going to put me.
Eddie
You would definitely go a little higher than.
Amy
But brick by brick. That's how a house comes together. Is everybody doing their part? So if that's your part, you contribute. That's your brick. You go over, you place it there.
Eddie
You know what's crazy about your story is that a kid had to tell the man that, like a man that would have experience and life.
Bobby Bones
Do you understand? The story's not real, though.
Eddie
Yeah.
Amy
Like, it's just a. It's been a story for a long time.
Eddie
Yeah, I know, but it's crazy that, like, the kids, like, well, I changed that life that started.
Bobby Bones
But it's also. It doesn't matter.
Amy
Yeah, I mean, I think it makes the story impactful that the old man is learning it from a child, because the child.
Bobby Bones
It definitely could be the opposite way that where an old man's doing it, a kid goes up, hey, old man, why are you doing that? He goes, well, it could have been both ways.
Amy
Right?
Eddie
Right? Yeah. Yeah, I see that too.
Bobby Bones
Not really a true story.
Eddie
So it's made up. This never happened?
Amy
I don't think so. I think it's metaphor for life. You know, Also, if you're in a dark room, Eddie, and you have one candle, you're not gonna see that much. But if everybody lights up a candle, then you see. Oh, boy, you see a lot.
Eddie
So I feel like.
Bobby Bones
No, but like I just stopped at the starfish. That's a good one. That's a mid one.
Amy
Well, I know, but he.
Eddie
No, but he's.
Amy
Well, I think because he. It's weird after all this time and so many things that we talk about and how giving he wants to be, that he would think, like, he's gonna.
Bobby Bones
Have a billion dollars to give or nothing else matters.
Amy
Right. Or else matters.
Eddie
But it just screams that, like having given away $60 million to an organization is like, oh, my Gosh, that's amazing. Thank you. When somebody gives 100, they're like, thank you.
Amy
Here's a. Yeah, but it's your hundred mixed with the other 10, 20, 30, $100 donations that add up.
Bobby Bones
It's your hundred going to one person because you're talking about 60 million into an organization, even one to one, the person who needs it, it's so much more impactful.
Eddie
I just feel like the organization gets it. I'm like, great, thanks. What are we gonna do with that?
Bobby Bones
No, it doesn't matter. Okay, it doesn't matter. Dude, why vote then, right? No, no, no.
Eddie
Exactly.
Amy
Yes, Bobby, thank you for proving.
Eddie
Exactly, dude. Yeah, I nailed it.
Bobby Bones
So, Lunchbox, what's your. What's your plan today?
Eddie
Take a nap first.
Bobby Bones
Are you gonna take a nap?
Lunchbox
I wish. I wish I had time to take a nap. Guys. There is no time nap in show business, I'm telling you. I mean, I'm gonna go and get there, you know, 10:30, 11:00', clock, and ride the wave, do the process. Hopefully it's. Hopefully it's a success. I mean, it is. I can't believe how tiring that was, though.
Bobby Bones
Well, you had. You had to get up early to do the show and your adrenaline was peaked the night before and you couldn't sleep, which probably affected your overall energy the next day. So all our factors. How did you sleep last night?
Eddie
Terrible nightmares.
Lunchbox
Oh, nightmares again. I mean, I had dreams that I got called up on stage and I lost game. And they're like, oh, we're going to give you a second chance. Lost another game. We'll give you a third chance. And I just lost and lost and I couldn't win. And it was, like, weird. I cannot believe that this Price is Right thing is invading my dreams. Like, how is that possible?
Eddie
Because you care about it.
Amy
Because you're there and it's.
Eddie
Yeah, you love it. Yeah, all those things.
Lunchbox
Okay, well, I don't know what you. Why you guys are like, it's not crazy.
Bobby Bones
Like, nothing's not crazy. It doesn't matter what it is. Whatever's consuming you is going to affect you both consciously and subconsciously.
Eddie
You know what, though? You don't dream, do you, Lunchbox?
Lunchbox
No, I dream.
Bobby Bones
He sleeps hard. I don't dream.
Eddie
Okay. Okay.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I dream all the time.
Bobby Bones
You get us confused. We're a lot alike. There's a lot. There's a lot of things about us people confused. So you probably got us confused.
Eddie
Same person.
Bobby Bones
Yes. Yeah, he dreams.
Eddie
Okay. I thought maybe that's why this is a little different, but no, no, I've.
Lunchbox
Never had nightmares like this. Like, I can't believe, like, that is what's weird to me. I thought it would be all fun dreams, like, oh, yay, confetti. But it's all about messing up on the Price is Right.
Bobby Bones
Jafir, we finally found something that he's fearful of.
Eddie
The Price is Right.
Bobby Bones
The Price is Right. Wow. He's nervous about being late to it.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
He's nervous about failing at it. He's reevaluating how he is as a person. These are things we wanted from him for years. But it's taking the prices. Right. To actually see something implement change.
Eddie
Has everything like, that you thought of, like, you thought the way it was going to go? Has it happened that way? Like, did you walk out of the tux place with the tux? Because you talked about that, like, 10 times.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I wore it out of the store.
Eddie
You did.
Bobby Bones
You keep either scratching yourself or putting your hand under your armpit. Why?
Eddie
He hasn't showered, right?
Bobby Bones
Is that what it is? He keeps either, like, scratching his body.
Lunchbox
I just had a scratch right here.
Bobby Bones
Or your hand keeps going under your.
Amy
Hand under your armpit.
Eddie
I noticed that, too.
Bobby Bones
Physically, are you okay?
Lunchbox
Yeah, I'm great. Man. I must add an itch. I don't know.
Bobby Bones
Got it.
Lunchbox
You guys don't itch. You guys don't ever have any.
Eddie
Scratching a lot.
Bobby Bones
You've been scratching a lot, and you've at times just putting your hand under your armpit and leaving it there.
Lunchbox
Oh, it's a little cold in this room. And this. My. This. This hoodie doesn't have a pocket in the front.
Bobby Bones
You usually put your hands in pockets?
Amy
Yes, he does.
Lunchbox
I usually put it in the front pocket right there, like on the. On my hoodie.
Bobby Bones
So you do, like, Saturday Night Live and you put under your armpits how she used to do.
Lunchbox
Well, yeah, because it's not.
Bobby Bones
It's not warm here. It's warm. Got it. Got it. One other thing before we leave this podcast. Last week, Amy had a vision, and the vision was a canoe.
Eddie
Rowing.
Bobby Bones
Rowing.
Amy
Yeah. But canoe for Kyle.
Bobby Bones
Well, no, not only that. I made two bets off of yours. She said canoe. And I bet Kyle Tucker. Home run. He had a home run that night. And I said. Also because you said canoe. Like canoe Red river or. No, not Red River. Red something red. And I said, and a boat. Yeah, because I bet Tampa Bay Buccaneers to win that game. And they hit two.
Eddie
Oh, is the boat.
Amy
The water.
Eddie
The boat. Whatever.
Bobby Bones
It was.
Amy
It was in the water.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
Tampa's on the water.
Bobby Bones
They're pirates.
Eddie
Buccaneers.
Amy
Oh, interesting.
Bobby Bones
Your vision paid off for me twice last week. So I'm asking, do you have another one?
Amy
Well, I haven't gone to get it, like, but the last 10 seconds.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Like, can you take 30 seconds to go back in my room?
Amy
Can I just do it here?
Bobby Bones
If you. You can do it wherever you want. I just need it to be, like, a sincere, true vision.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Not just you scraping for one.
Amy
Okay. I just have to. Y' all can talk amongst you.
Bobby Bones
It's gonna be distracting. It's hard. It's hard to have visions when people are, like, talking.
Amy
I know. I was just. Gotta put my shoes on.
Eddie
Your shoes are part of it.
Bobby Bones
Who cares? There's nobody else there. Walk out there with no shoes.
Amy
No, I don't wanna.
Eddie
Welcome.
Bobby Bones
You want to do bare feet?
Amy
No, because that's how you get chicken and go.
Bobby Bones
Virus Box will go into an airplane bathroom with no shoes.
Lunchbox
No stress. I've been in the porta potties at music vessels with no shoes on.
Eddie
What? Barefoot?
Lunchbox
Yeah. Acl, baby.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah, baby.
Eddie
Gross.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Amy is going into my office to have. Let me pull up my DraftKings account.
Eddie
I mean, the last time she did it, she was pretty fast.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
That's crazy that she can just close her eyes like that and things just come to her head.
Bobby Bones
Guys, I hit twice. So if you have DraftKings and you go over to it, put in the code. Bobby. Sports. And there's like a. You bet five bucks and you win. And it's like bonus bets or whatever it is, but. Yeah, do that.
Eddie
I hit last night.
Bobby Bones
Baseball.
Eddie
Yeah, baseball. Seven leg parlay, maybe eight.
Bobby Bones
How much you bet?
Eddie
$5. I won, like, 47 or something. It was awesome.
Bobby Bones
Now, she doesn't know this, but there is a football game tonight between the Steelers and the Bengals. And so I'm kind of leaning toward. Hopefully she sends us to something for this game. Like, whatever it is, I'm going to interpret into this game like a tiger.
Eddie
Running through the tree.
Bobby Bones
Oh, man. If she comes back and she's like, I just see somebody stealing something.
Lunchbox
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Or I just see.
Eddie
You know what's funny about that is when I was a kid, I thought that's what they were like. They were Steelers.
Bobby Bones
The thieves.
Eddie
They were thieves. And I was like, that's a crazy name for a football team.
Bobby Bones
Did you know there was a. They had to comb. I think World War II, the Steagalls.
Eddie
The Steelers and the Eagles.
Bobby Bones
Because So many people were drafted. They had to combine the two teams.
Eddie
Oh, wow.
Bobby Bones
Steelers and the Eagles.
Amy
Did you guys ever see the AI creation of all the different NFL stadiums where they, like, completely turned them into, like, their theme?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's really cool.
Amy
Like, some of them had big tigers up and, like, they looked like these full coliseums, themes of the team.
Eddie
Oh, that's cool.
Bobby Bones
Like, the Buccaneers had a massive, like, fighting buccaneer ship in it.
Eddie
Nice.
Bobby Bones
I saw a cool AI one yesterday of a stadium with a million people. Have you seen that one? What it would look like?
Eddie
Humongous, like.
Bobby Bones
Oh, crazy. Yeah. And not real. I did a movie on myself on my TikTok for me as a kid. Really cool for me as a kid all the way to now. And had to, like, cast different actor. I didn't cast an actor, but I was like, make me 12. And it's like, hey, everybody, I'm Bobby from Mountain Pine and I want to request a song. And the guy's like, I'll put you on the radio. It's over my TikTok. Mr. Bobby Bones.
Eddie
Was. Was that emotional for you?
Bobby Bones
No, not at all. No.
Eddie
Just to kind of see your life in, like, a.
Bobby Bones
It wasn't really my life.
Eddie
I mean, it's a highlight of your.
Bobby Bones
Life, but it was like, highlight reel. Some of it was kind of wrong. Like, I'm in Hot Springs and I was. But it's like 95. 7. I was on 957 and there was like, season 30, winner of dance. I wasn't season 30. So it was a little thing. I was like, I want to go back and change this.
Eddie
That threw it off a little bit.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. But it's on my TikTok if you want to see that.
Eddie
I told you. My favorite is when all the muscular men are carrying you at Dancing with the Stars. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I got 1 million views on this tick tock. I did two days ago.
Eddie
Dang. That's cool.
Bobby Bones
Of just talking about Dancing with the Stars. I don't talk about dance coaster very often on my tick tock, but, man, I got a million views. Maybe I got to give people what they want.
Eddie
Yeah, that's how it works.
Amy
Got a lot of people talking about Dancing with the Stars.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. There she is. She's back. Okay. I mean, I got my account up. Did you turn the lights off or just sitting there with the lights on?
Amy
I went to the bathroom. I had to.
Eddie
Oh, that's weird.
Amy
Once I stood up, I was like, I have to go to the bathroom. And it came to me right away. So it didn't much matter.
Bobby Bones
Tell me about your vision.
Amy
Two Bears are walking, holding hands, kind of skipping. It's a beautiful day out and they are just having the best time. There's two of them, though.
Eddie
I don't know, man.
Bobby Bones
Two Bears skipping.
Amy
Beautiful day. Sun is shining, blue skies.
Bobby Bones
I wish the Cubs were still in it.
Amy
Oh, are they not Bears? I don't know. I don't even know what sport we're focusing on. I thought we were doing football.
Bobby Bones
We're just doing wherever you sent us. I mean, you could always go back to like this coming up week. I'd have known because the Bears did win last week. But who are the Bears playing this week?
Lunchbox
Saints.
Bobby Bones
I mean, that's. Let me see what that line is.
Lunchbox
Five and a half. I think Bears are favorites.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, Saints suck.
Eddie
Two Bears. What were they doing, Amy?
Amy
Frolicking about.
Bobby Bones
What do you see?
Amy
Okay, well, so I was trying to find a connection and I said, is there a bear in a Steelers player? And they said there's several connections between a Bear and Steelers players. Most notable is the Greg Warren, who is nicknamed Bear. You have Ben Roethlisberger, Big Ben, and then I guess some of the Pittsburgh Steelers rival is the Chicago Bears. That's what it popped up.
Bobby Bones
Not really the rival, though. Ravens, more of a rival. What about say Bengals?
Amy
And they've had, I guess several players who've also played for the Chicago Bears.
Eddie
So see, see, well, that's the NFL. But go to like instead of Steelers, put Bengals and see if there's a connection there. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You didn't give us much here this time.
Eddie
What?
Bobby Bones
But you can't predict your visions.
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
And it. It. Last time it came to me so fast and clear.
Bobby Bones
Two Bears going through the woods.
Amy
No, they're not in the wood. I didn't say the woods. I said the. Like I pick right now I see them on a sidewalk.
Eddie
Oh, they're in a sidewalk. Yeah. Are there steel buildings around?
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Morgan.
Amy
Yeah. You Cincinnati Bengals have a player who was on the Chicago Bears, Khalil Herbert. And then you also have another former Bears player. So that's the only connection with Bears and Bengals.
Eddie
It's not that.
Amy
Then what about the actual, like just team the Bears?
Lunchbox
Yeah. Maybe it's two Bears wins in a row.
Eddie
Well, he was trying to get one for tonight.
Amy
There are two Bears.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but we can't. We can't force.
Amy
I don't know what.
Bobby Bones
I know, I know. We can't force.
Amy
I don't know what.
Bobby Bones
I don't know I'll do. Then that's what I'm gonna go do.
Amy
They play.
Bobby Bones
They play Sunday. Let's see. Let me go over to DraftKings, guys. This is gonna be it. The two bears. Could be two bear wins in a row.
Eddie
I meant solid.
Bobby Bones
So we got the Bears. They're minus four and a half.
Amy
They're cute bears. Almost like teddy bear.
Bobby Bones
Like.
Amy
Like not. I don't know that they're even.
Bobby Bones
I'm putting 250 bucks on the Bears to cover minus four and a half.
Amy
Like skipping.
Eddie
They were holding hands.
Bobby Bones
Let's see if she hits it again.
Eddie
Pretty good.
Bobby Bones
She hit two for me last time. So your own peril if you don't bet it.
Eddie
I'll bet it.
Bobby Bones
You can download the DraftKings sportsbook app. Use the code Bobby Sports. If you're a new customer, turn five bucks into $300 in bonus bets. There it is. That's what it is. In partnership with DraftKings. This is not a commercial. But I just want to make sure I got the thing right. What you can get. Okay. Lunchbox.
Lunchbox
Good luck. Thank you. What?
Bobby Bones
Nothing. Just want to know there are any parting. Parting thoughts or words.
Lunchbox
No, I was just going over the Bengals roster to see if there's anybody named Bear.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I was looking at that too.
Lunchbox
And I don't see anything. Yeah, I'm a new man today. I'm changed. I'm different.
Amy
What more calm could the Bears be connected to Lunchboxes day today at prices.
Eddie
Oh, that. That too.
Bobby Bones
I didn't ask our vision for him could because it's two people.
Amy
It's a couple days.
Bobby Bones
Oh, the couples day. A couple of bears holding hands.
Eddie
Frolic.
Amy
Frolicking in the sunshine.
Lunchbox
I won't frolic.
Eddie
Yeah.
Amy
Oh yeah. You're chill today.
Bobby Bones
That's all you do is frolic.
Amy
Not anymore.
Lunchbox
I definitely don't frolic. I'm not a frolicker.
Bobby Bones
All right, we're done. You guys have a great rest of the of the day. We will see you tomorrow and we'll get an update from Lunchbox tomorrow and if you got on on Couples day. All right, see you guys and goodbye. Hello, America's sweetheart. Johnny Knoxville here. I want to tell you about my new true crime podcast. Crimeless Hillbilly Heist from Smartless media. Campside media and big money players.
Lunchbox
It's a wild tale about a gang.
Bobby Bones
Of high functioning nitwits who somehow pulled off America's third largest cash heist.
Lunchbox
Kind of like Robin Hood, except for the part where he steals from the rich and gives to the poor. I'm not that generous.
Bobby Bones
It's a damn near inspiring true story for anyone out there who's ever shot for the moon, then just totally muffed up the landing. They stole $17 million and had not bought a ticket to help him escape. So we're sitting like, oh, God, what do we do? What do we do?
Lunchbox
That was dumb. People. Do not follow my example.
Bobby Bones
Listen to crimeless hillbilly Heist on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Eddie
Hey, it's Ed Helms, host of Snafu, my podcast about history's greatest screw ups. On our new season, we're bringing you a new Snafu. Every single episode.
Amy

Eddie
Him and said, this isn't a joke.
Bobby Bones
A man who robbed a bank when he was 14 years old and a centenarian rediscovers a love lost 80 years ago.
Amy
How can 101-year-old woman fall in love again?
Bobby Bones
Listen to heavyweight on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Amy
I'm Eva Longoria. And I'm Maite Gomez Jejun. And this week on our podcast, Hungry for History, we talk oysters. Plus, the Miami Chief stops by.
Bobby Bones
If you are not an oyster lover, don't even talk to me.
Amy
Ancient Athenians used to scratch names onto oyster shells to vote politicians into exile. So our word ostracize is related to the word oyster. No way. Bring back the ostrichon. Listen to Hungry for history on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts.
