[Lunchbox]

Wake up, wake up in the morning. Then you hear Eddie, Emmy, Lunchbox, Morgan too. Scooby, Steve, Randy's riding. His wig's on the mic. So you know what this is. This is the Bobby Bone. And now time for the segment Lunchbox.

[Eddie]

Presents Women are Crazy.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, go ahead, man.

[Eddie]

I don't know what's up with you women. Why are you guys so crazy? Why? This woman goes to the grocery store and right. Just hit it. Listen to what she does, guys.

[Morgan]

Oh, woman from Keen is accused of putting her own urine on products at a grocery store. 23 year old Kelly Tedford is charged with felony criminal mischief. Police say she recorded herself contaminating items at the Monadnock food Co op and posted it online. Investigators say based on other videos, it's likely she did this at other businesses in the area as well. The co op says it immediately removed affected products, reached out to customers who may have bought them and recalled those items.

[Eddie]

What is wrong with you? Women? Women are crazy. That is disgusting.

[Lunchbox]

I will agree it's disgusting. I will agree women are crazy. I just don't think this is a woman only thing, but definitely not.

[Eddie]

Did they say there was a man with her or they say a woman?

[Amy]

Yeah, but it's just definitely not. I did a quick Google search. I found a man that did this last year too.

[Lunchbox]

Hey, why was she doing it? Did they ever say what was up?

[Eddie]

No, and they didn't. I have no idea why she did it. I think they. If you cut the clip, I think you cut it a little early. I think that. Then they said women are crazy.

[Lunchbox]

No, they didn't say that. He didn't cut the clip. Also, she posted it, right? Yeah.

[Eddie]

I think she's trying to go viral.

[Lunchbox]

If you go viral doing something illegal, it's not worth it to go viral. I think some people are too dumb to understand that. Like if you go viral, you're like, I'm gonna do this. But it turns out that you're messing with food, you're asking a kid to get in the van, any of that stuff. And it's like, wow, look at this. We showed how easy these kids just getting vans. You. You'll still go to jail. Yeah.

[Eddie]

I don't understand the urinating on the food. Like I get like, if your buddy dares you, you urinate on aisle 12. Okay.

[Lunchbox]

No, you get that.

[Eddie]

No, no, that happened in high school, but. Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Who did that?

[Amy]

I was a guy. Was it a guy?

[Eddie]

It was a bet.

[Lunchbox]

When you do. So if it's a bed, it's different.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah, but we didn't urinate on the products.

[Bobby Bones]

That's true.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, I hate to say it, guys got kind of a point there.

[Amy]

Yeah, but if you urinate in the aisle, it splashes onto the proper.

[Lunchbox]

Not if it's like. Not if it's like the frozen aisle. Yeah.

[Scuba Steve]

Or like box.

[Lunchbox]

The doors. Yeah. Or the box stuff. Or the chips aisle. Or with the Mountain Dews, you know, cuz you can't really get in that.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but we didn't urinate on the products. I mean, this. Women are crazy.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, that's. Lunchbox presents.

[Eddie]

Women are crazy.

[Lunchbox]

Amy, anything you want to say?

[Amy]

I feel like this woman may have been influenced by a man in May of 2024 because he posted videos online of himself urinating on food and rubbing food on his pregnancy. So men are crazy.

[Lunchbox]

He posted a video of that?

[Amy]

Yeah, because there's a difference.

[Lunchbox]

If you're just, you know, not right. And you're doing that in a grocery store.

[Amy]

Listen to what he was charged with. Unlawfully adulterating or contaminating food.

[Lunchbox]

Adultery.

[Amy]

Sounds weird, I know. Well, I think that's because he was rubbing it.

[Lunchbox]

I hope he adulterated a pineapple. He'll be feeling that one for a while.

[Amy]

But he. He was definitely a man.

[Lunchbox]

Did he do it and post on social media?

[Amy]

He did.

[Lunchbox]

He did. Okay.

[Amy]

Posted videos online of himself urinating in food and rubbing it places. And this was at a restaurant.

[Lunchbox]

I don't know which was crazier, though.

[Bobby Bones]

A grocery store.

[Lunchbox]

Restaurant. We gotta weigh that. I think grocery store is a little crazier than restaurant, for sure.

[Amy]

No, no, no. He was doing it. And the food was being served to people.

[Lunchbox]

It's warm, though.

[Eddie]

And he's rehab.

[Amy]

She was clearly influenced by him.

[Lunchbox]

I think it probably feels better if it's warm, though.

[Eddie]

Women are crazy.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, and that's Lunchbox presents.

[Eddie]

Women are Crazy.

[Lunchbox]

It's time for the good news with Bobby.

[Amy]

Tell me something good.

[Lunchbox]

This story is about a kid who figured out a way that other people could give back. And I love it. First of all, how does a kid even know how to do an app? Crazy, but that's what it is. The kid's name is Anish Making a Difference. He has an app called Pizza for a Purpose which connects local restaurants in Boca Raton, Florida, with charities to donate pizzas to those in need. Now, it all came from the volunteer work that he was doing at a local charity where he would see family struggling with food insecurity. So he launched the app, made the app, and mostly it's pizza and stuff that's left over at the end of the night, which they can't really just leave out. And then people come and get it like it's against the law, which is silly, but it is silly. I understand why it's against the law, but I think there are ways you should circumvent that so people can eat this food and it doesn't go to waste. But there are 11 restaurants in this town, and all of Their food they don't use because it is kind of regulated. How it gets from point A to point B. This app is able to do that.

[Amy]

That's awesome.

[Lunchbox]

And so all these people that are struggling with food insecurity in their town have food. This kid's 14 years old. 14 guys just making an app at 14. Aside from the good stuff, right? Yeah, I like. How do I. How do you make an app? How do I use this? I don't even know how TV works or radio works. This kid's making an app. A crazy story. So, Anash Kazakh.

[Bobby Bones]

You're awesome. It's a great story.

[Lunchbox]

CBS12 with that story. There you go. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good, Bones. Let's do the investigative. Morning, Corny. How many can we get in 90 seconds? Amy, ready?

[Eddie]

If you don't know the.

[Lunchbox]

I struggled.

[Eddie]

That is so hard.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, we did.

[Amy]

But it's good y'all got there.

[Lunchbox]

That was. That was final. Boss, though, that one for number one. That's tough, but we got there.

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Go ahead.

[Amy]

What? Why do melons have weddings?

[Lunchbox]

Great job. Whoever got that one. I don't.

[Eddie]

I got a question. I don't even know why that's an answer.

[Lunchbox]

Because they.

[Amy]

Cantaloupe.

[Lunchbox]

Hello?

[Amy]

Cantaloupe.

[Bobby Bones]

Wait, you didn't know you said the right answer?

[Eddie]

No, I knew I said the right answer, but I didn't understand why I was right.

[Amy]

Cantaloupe.

[Lunchbox]

Got it. Okay.

[Amy]

How did you guess that?

[Lunchbox]

He just said cantaloupe.

[Scuba Steve]

He just said a melon.

[Eddie]

I was saying you can't elope. I wasn't thinking cantaloupe, like the melon. I was like, they can't go anywhere.

[Bobby Bones]

We got it.

[Lunchbox]

Go ahead. Next one.

[Amy]

Okay. Where do killer whales go to get braces?

[Lunchbox]

Crush this one or Godonna or what.

[Amy]

In the actual world.

[Lunchbox]

I know.

[Amy]

I thought I was going to stick stump you on that one.

[Lunchbox]

Go ahead.

[Amy]

How did you get that? And then what piece on the playground is always exhausted?

[Lunchbox]

Because I said tires. Was it tired swing or just tire? What was it?

[Amy]

Yeah, the tire swing.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Tire bones.

[Lunchbox]

Amy, what do you have?

[Amy]

So I have a husband and a wife who were forced to sit next to a woman's body after she passed away on a flight. And it was a 15 hour flight, by the way, so they're obviously, like, upset about this.

[Lunchbox]

I have questions. Question number one is if it's a 15 hour flight. Those planes that fly that long have multiple bathrooms. They have one up front, they have one in the middle.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

How could they not just, like, throw it in a bathroom stall?

[Amy]

It said that they tried to wheel her up towards business class, but. Oh, this is quoting the news story. It says here, but she was quite a large lady and they couldn't get her through the aisle.

[Lunchbox]

That makes sense.

[Amy]

They probably couldn't. This couple, they had two spare seats in their row. They're looking at the picture.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, my gosh.

[Amy]

Huh. And so the frustrated flight crew asked them to shift over so they could prop the corpse. It's a dead body alongside them. And yes, there is a photo. It is very shocking. And yes, I can't believe they would.

[Lunchbox]

Do this to somebody. I don't know what the other options are.

[Amy]

They covered her with a blanket.

[Lunchbox]

Cover her up for sure. They did.

[Amy]

But she was definitely next to them for four hours.

[Lunchbox]

The guy has headphones on. Older gentleman sitting right next to her. Because also, if it's you and your wife. You gotta bite the bullet and go, I'll sit next to them for sure. You know, you gotta save your wife. That it still is a dead body right next to you. He's got headphones on. He could not be focused anymore forward. He just couldn't be. He is staring at this back of the seat.

[Amy]

Yeah. I mean, and it is crazy because you're all the way up in the air. Someone has a medical emergency, they can't save her, and then she dies and you can't just like land anywhere.

[Lunchbox]

Did they say if the medical emergency happened on the flight or if they just went to her and she died? Like, was there like a big, A big hubbub?

[Amy]

There was a medical emergency on the flight and they tried to save her and they couldn't.

[Lunchbox]

So everybody's traumatized from that, from seeing that.

[Bobby Bones]

Terrible.

[Lunchbox]

By the way, let me say this because I need to be a person that feels, I hate that for her and her family. But still, everybody on the flight's like, well, we just watched somebody die. They're flying over the ocean. It's 15 hour flight, so you can't just land.

[Amy]

Right.

[Lunchbox]

The fact they had to put her in a seat next to people that bought seats. This may be worse than being on that plane that flipped over.

[Bobby Bones]

No, because over.

[Lunchbox]

I'm getting money.

[Scuba Steve]

Oh, here. You're not getting any.

[Lunchbox]

I'm getting half a million dollars on a Delta flight.

[Amy]

But I think they could maybe get some money.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. What are they going to do, give her a voucher?

[Scuba Steve]

Right.

[Lunchbox]

Two free drinks. I can't believe they're sitting next to a dead body. I can't believe they're sitting next to.

[Amy]

A dead body for four hours.

[Lunchbox]

This is what I would do if I were on the flight. I would get on the. I would say, hello, everybody. Thank you for being on the airline here. So we got a. Sadly got a person that died here and it looks like we'd have to put her in a seat and aisle 7. Would anyone for a 700 voucher switch seats with the family that's there? So at least somebody could choose to sit next to the dead body. Not a dead body being forced on you when you bought your seat.

[Amy]

Well, then do we look into the people that are volunteering also?

[Lunchbox]

No, because I take it from money. Absolutely. Because anybody.

[Amy]

That's okay. That's a good cover.

[Lunchbox]

No, it's not like you're gonna do it with the body. I think if you were to say 2000 me, if I. If it's Just me.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah.

[Lunchbox]

You say we're gonna give you $2,000, you just have to sit next to a dead body for four hours. That's covered up. I'm in. Yeah, I'm in.

[Scuba Steve]

So I'm into.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

So not in vouchers. You're talking cash.

[Lunchbox]

It doesn't matter.

[Amy]

Yes, it does.

[Lunchbox]

I fly enough. Vouchers are cash.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Same thing to me.

[Amy]

But it's on Qatar. Qatar Airways.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a lot of Australia like flight.

[Amy]

I know, but I'm just saying if it's air, like what if it's an airline you never fly.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, then why would I be on.

[Lunchbox]

I never fly it.

[Amy]

Because you're taking a 15 hour flight.

[Lunchbox]

I fly Delta a lot of times when I do that, if it happened on Delta, I would sit next to the dead body. But only for money. I think they should have offered money to somebody to switch seats with them. But also, that sucks.

[Amy]

It's terrible.

[Lunchbox]

He could not. He is not moving.

[Scuba Steve]

Oh, I wouldn't move his head.

[Lunchbox]

It will not look to the right where that dead body is. I feel bad everybody had to, like, see that. But it's just an old couple, dude. I hope they were. They are compensated for their trouble.

[Amy]

I'm sure they will be.

[Lunchbox]

See these airline stories? It don't matter what happens. If anything happens on a flight right now, it's making the big news because of all the crashes.

[Bobby Bones]

A lot of my friends, they can't even get their day going without stopping by Starbucks for me. Love Starbucks. Love to get a chai tea.

[Lunchbox]

Bones, I'm going to start with the train story.

[Bobby Bones]

First. They did a heist on a train which feels like Billy the Kid days. So a train was traveling. These robbers saw it and they stole millions of dollars in Nike shoes. They knew what was on it.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Huh.

[Bobby Bones]

Nobody got hurt. I hate that people steal. Stealing's bad. But there's something like old school romantic like Wild Wild west about a train robbery. Luckily nobody got shot. I don't know if anybody had a.

[Lunchbox]

Handkerchief over the face.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know any of that. But the thieves got away with all of these new shoes that haven't been released yet.

[Lunchbox]

They got wind of the train coming.

[Bobby Bones]

Through with all the shoes. They must have an inside source. But 2000 pair of shoes worth over $440,000. They were tipped off by people working in the warehouse of the trucking company. Not so much.

[Lunchbox]

Nike.

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Today it's believed that these have resulted in losses in excess of $2 million.

[Lunchbox]

Just in Nike Sneaker product from the Los Angeles Times.

[Bobby Bones]

So they must have jumped on. They must have laid their sticks with the bag on it, because I figured that's how they were walking up to it, that over the shoulder. Best familiar with that, right?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And then jumped on, got them all. I don't know how they got them all off. Do you just throw them off and then go and collect them after that? But a train heist is crazy.

[Scuba Steve]

Well, the train could be parked, too.

[Lunchbox]

No, train was moving.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I'm looking at the train right now.

[Scuba Steve]

Really?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Like fast?

[Bobby Bones]

No, that's the thing. I don't think it was moving fast enough.

[Lunchbox]

It wasn't like Amtrak.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah.

[Amy]

So once these start to pop up online, though, won't these people be easy to find if these are unreleased Nikes and all of a sudden they're for sale somewhere?

[Bobby Bones]

No, because they're released in March.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Coming up in a few weeks.

[Amy]

So they hold on to them.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, I saw the train.

[Bobby Bones]

It looked like I lived in a mill town.

[Lunchbox]

We had Weyerhaeuser, we had trains. They were full salt mill saw dust as a plywood. That trains only went medium fast.

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah. So there's some that move downtown and then. Yeah, they don't move that fast.

[Lunchbox]

I want to give you an airplane story. There was almost another one where. And I'll tell you kind of what happened here. The plane had to go and, like, veer around another plane before it hit it. And so this guy I watch on Tick Tock, his name is Aaron Parnas. He's at Aaron Parnas one talking about the American Airlines that was forced to abort a landing at the same D.C. airport because they almost had a collision. Here you go.

[Raymundo]

The American Airlines Flight 2246 was en route to D.C. from Boston, was preparing to land, according to the FAA, when it was told to perform a go round to, quote, ensure separation was maintained between the aircraft and a preceding departure from the same Runway. And a passenger told the New York Times, quote, there was nothing gradual about it. It felt like the pilot had to make an emergency maneuver. Now, once again, the FAA and the NTSB are investigating, but this comes on the same day that a South west flight in Chicago was forced to abandon its landing out of fears that it may have collided with a private jet on the Runway.

[Lunchbox]

So this is a big one. But would this have been a story if the others weren't a story? That's what I'll always have to ask myself, because this is bigger than, like, two planes bumping each other that are private planes, little planes, or somebody crashing a small plane with two people in it. That happens a lot because those are pilots that really aren't as trained as commercial pilots.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy, do you think this would have been a story?

[Amy]

No. And this is what I was thinking is like, how many times have we been in an airplane where maybe we've avoided something that we had nothing about because the pilot was told, hey, you just needed to do a quick go around? Which I know they felt something abrupt happen.

[Lunchbox]

I'm telling you, this was a. Like, if you see a deer or a bag of trash on the highway, swerve hard. It was a swerve. It's a swerve.

[Amy]

Yeah. I just know that there's. There's been these close encounters happening for years and years and years, but we're hearing about them now because it's a hot thing in the news.

[Lunchbox]

It's hot.

[Amy]

It's hot. And now I'm. I'm starting to get a little more nervous about not me flying.

[Lunchbox]

I was already nervous. I can't hear anymore. I already hated flying.

[Amy]

I know. I'll just do extra. Like, when I board, I always do the. Well, this could be it. And now.

[Lunchbox]

What the heck?

[Scuba Steve]

Every time.

[Lunchbox]

What the. Wait, what?

[Amy]

Yeah, y'all don't do that.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no, no. And I hate it. And I'm scared the whole time, but I never really had that talk.

[Amy]

Well, I'm not. But I have that thought.

[Bobby Bones]

Everything in order.

[Amy]

Yeah, I have that thought. And now I think I'll just probably have a little extra thought and prayer.

[Lunchbox]

Alexa is about to get a whole lot smarter. AI is kind of building itself into everything. And the more you teach AI about yourself, your habits, your patterns, the more it can help you. Amazon announced a big Alexa upgrade called Alexa Plus. That's supposed to be more like an actual assistant. She can browse the Internet for you, text people, book Ubers, order groceries, buy concert tickets. Mostly it's you teach it. It then knows, and then it will do without you asking if you're like, hey, do this when I don't ask you to do it.

[Amy]

Mine's been talking to me lately, and I don't say anything to just starts talking.

[Lunchbox]

But you've been very lonely, and you told us on the show you need somebody to hang out with. Your thing has been, can we please all hang out?

[Amy]

No, my thing has been, can we do some team building and bond as colleagues, friends, co workers? Because it helps the vibe, the energy on the show. That is my point. I'm not lonely. But what I'm saying is I'll just be in my kitchen. Nobody has said anything. And she starts talking to me.

[Lunchbox]

About what?

[Amy]

What, the weather? Like, she knows definitions of things.

[Lunchbox]

She knows.

[Amy]

Like, she just starts talking. I'll start. I'll. I'll record it next time it happens. Because I'm like, why is she doing this? Are there other sounds she's hearing that I'm not hearing that are prompting her to speak?

[Lunchbox]

Prime members will get it for free if you have an Alexa. Okay, everyone else has to pay 20 bucks a month, but Amazon prime is only 15 bucks.

[Amy]

Yeah, you might as well be Prime.

[Lunchbox]

Okay, don't. Don't do the stupid thing and just get that and not get Prime. I'm gonna start with a couple deaths. Actress Michelle Trachtenberg, known for Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Gossip Girl, and others, has died at age 39. If you don't know who she is by her name talking to you guys in studio, you would know her if you saw her. She underwent a liver transplant within the last year, but her body may have rejected her organ, according to sources. And so they said her death is not suspicious. They didn't say, and nor should they say exactly what happened, but those things they think factored into it. Very sad. Michelle Trachtenberg, Rest in peace. Gene Hackman died. Legendary actor Gene Hackman.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow.

[Lunchbox]

Was 95.

[Scuba Steve]

Wow. I didn't realize.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, good job, dude. That's a crazy long life. Police confirmed that they found the bodies of Gene, his wife Betsy, and their dog in Santa Fe. No foul play suspected, but all of them did. Yeah, that's the part.

[Scuba Steve]

What on earth? Yeah, I wonder if it could be like, carbon monoxide.

[Lunchbox]

If. So, if you live to be 95 and you die. Carbon monoxide poisoning.

[Scuba Steve]

Tough.

[Lunchbox]

Do you know more about that?

[Amy]

That's. I mean, I've seen theories and carbon monoxide being one of them or something like.

[Lunchbox]

That's the theory I saw too. But I was like, that surely, like 95. And that's how you go. That's like somebody serving multiple tours and coming back getting, like, robbed of the ATM and kill. Terrible. Crazy. Oh, you want to know another story? So today, supposedly. Supposedly. So this isn't news news, but it's supposed news. They're supposed to release the Epstein list today.

[Amy]

What time?

[Lunchbox]

Well, there's no time. I don't think. It's like Wrestlemania starts at 7. The Attorney General, Pam Bondi, the new attorney General, said yesterday that it was going to be released today. Here are my thoughts. Let's go give it to us all. If anything is redacted, it doesn't count because they promised full transparency or don't release it at all. But they promise it was coming out and no redactions. And also if it feels partisan at all, it doesn't count. I want everybody, I want Democrats on it. I want Republicans on it because, you.

[Amy]

Know, they're both on it.

[Lunchbox]

There's no difference in size when it comes to people being bad people and doing dirty, crazy stuff. And if it comes out and there's like 800 one and one or the other, it's a bullcrap lie. But that being said, I hope it's released and it's just full transparency and it's like, boom, let's go. So that should be today. As of yesterday evening, they said it was going to be today, but they also said it was going to come out day one and it didn't come out day one. But let me know if there's any breaking news. If it comes out, I'm ready to see who I want to punch in the face. You know, the first US Measles death reported in West Texas, which, by the way, the measles outbreak has affected more than 130 people. A child who is not vaccinated has died from measles in West Texas.

[Amy]

So sad.

[Lunchbox]

Which again, by the way, this is the first death in 10 years.

[Scuba Steve]

Crazy.

[Lunchbox]

I was listening to a talk yesterday. Well, the measles happens every year. Nobody's died from it. No, this is the first time somebody's died in 10 years. The outbreak has grown to 124 cases across nine counties in rural West Texas and some in eastern New Mexico. The majority of cases are among people younger than 18. Health officials emphasize the importance of vaccination. This is from FOX News. I really, really, really, really hate that they have politicized vaccines because this is one that's been working forever.

[Bobby Bones]

Now.

[Lunchbox]

Are there some that possibly get rushed? And they. Yes, that does. Two things can be true. There can be the occasional vaccine that they realize, oh, this isn't doing exactly what we thought, even after all the testing. But for the most part, one of the greatest inventions of our lifetime, a vaccine. It's wild to me that this has become political, especially because President Trump is like, that's my vaccine. Especially the Copa. He's like, I invented that. That's mine. You should call it the Trump vaccine. But then it gets political and now everybody's like, oh, we don't want the vaccine. Okay, great. Let's take Covid out of the equation. The fact that people aren't getting vaccines for things that we've been getting it for for 50, 70 years and polio and measles are back, that's wild.

[Scuba Steve]

I mean, I thought measles vaccine was a requirement for schools because I know homeschool some are.

[Lunchbox]

There we go. These kids are homeschooled. So, yeah, it's, it's a disservice to Americans in general. I get vaccine every day. I don't even know which one.

[Eddie]

Good for you.

[Lunchbox]

I just walk in, I'm like, what you got today? I don't. Tell me. Mystery. I do. Mystery vaccine. The three second hack that makes you more attractive and memorable is revealed. Dating expert Luane Ward has revealed there's one mistake that's killing your own attraction powers without even realizing it. Rushing conversation to fill silence. Simple things like that can add up. And they're attraction blockers even. Not even romantic attraction, but even like work. If like you're talking to a boss or somebody where you want to go work, she's like, leave space. Sit in silence for a minute. Put the pressure on them. You look over eager, romantic or professional.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

She says most people will never use this technique because silence feels uncomfortable. But the moment you learn to own it, you change the way people see you forever because you look like you're in control. New York Post. The show Jury Duty, which I loved, did not expect to love it as much as I did, and was wildly moved by it at the end. Like it made you feel. It's where they had a fake jury. The person thought they were on jury duty and the whole thing was documented, but they didn't know everybody was an actor around them. It was awesome. Awesome show. Jury Duty 2 is happening, but this time it won't be back in a courtroom because they figured people would figure it out. The hit series is coming back. The follow up has already been filmed. They just wrapped. It took place at a corporate retreat instead of a courtroom. So similar situation. I'm sure they think they're with a bunch of bosses and executives. And that's not really what happened. I was watching a new episode of paradise last night and that actor, James Marsden, first of all, wildly good looking guy, like classically super attractive dude, he's in his 50s. Did you know that that might be the best looking 50 year old I've ever seen. It's crazy.

[Amy]

He's aged well.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. And not only that, that show and it's not over yet. So we can't do a Tuesday reviews day. It's awesome. Do you watch the newest one?

[Amy]

Yep.

[Lunchbox]

I'm happy. Are you seven? Are you on set?

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah, I'm all caught up. But that's all I say.

[Lunchbox]

That's all you say.

[Scuba Steve]

This guy's 50 years old.

[Lunchbox]

He's 51, dude.

[Amy]

Do you think he colors his. His hair?

[Lunchbox]

It doesn't matter.

[Scuba Steve]

Wow. He's good looking.

[Lunchbox]

He's good looking.

[Amy]

He's like. It's like him and Patrick Dempsey. I don't know what their secret is.

[Lunchbox]

But he puts Patrick Dempsey to shame when it comes to looking young. Patrick Dempsey's still good looking, but this guy looks like he could be 34 years old. Like, I'm not attracted to dudes, but if I were, I'd be hitting him up in the DMS.

[Amy]

Okay, but see, Patrick Dempsey's 59.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, but he looks older. His hair is grayer.

[Amy]

Yeah, he's nine years old.

[Lunchbox]

No, it's not the same. Patrick Dempsey's good looking for an older guy. This dude looks like he could be 35 years old. Okay, well, I'd be like, what's up, man? I mean, I haven't. Because I don't. But if I did, I'd be like, you up.

[Amy]

You up.

[Lunchbox]

If you need to calm your baby, instead of talking to them, sing to them. Experts say singing is more effective than speech at keeping infants calm. Thoughts, Eddie.

[Scuba Steve]

I always did that. They love. I love to sing to them. And I think now all of my. All my kids, the ones that I had when they were babies, because I have two adopted kids, they're. I mean, they love music. And I think that's because I used to sing to them when they would cry.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I sing my wife a lot. She doesn't help. She doesn't like it. She's like, you don't sing very.

[Scuba Steve]

She cries more.

[Lunchbox]

She's actually a pretty good singer too, which is kind of annoying. And finally, now they do the best coffee shops in the world. And at number one, it's in Sydney, Australia. We'll never go there. At number two, it's in northwest Arkansas in the World Onyx Coffee Lab of Arkansas. And they have places in Rogers and Fayetteville. And Springdale. Like, that's like my neck. It's the second in the world. They're judged on quality of coffee, food sustainability, customer service in the world.

[Scuba Steve]

That's amazing.

[Lunchbox]

That's crazy. That's from Yahoo.

[Scuba Steve]

Like, they're going against, like, coffee shops.

[Lunchbox]

In Singapore and World coffee shops in South America, where they make the Stuff where they pick it off the ground. Just suck on the coffee beans.

[Scuba Steve]

That's right. Like in the backyard.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, yeah. Congratulations to them. That is the news. Those were Bobby's big stories, Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

A lot of my friends, they can't even get their day going without stopping by Starbucks for me. Love Starbucks. Love to get a chai tea. And if I'm ready, if I really need a big day, I'll get that double shot of espresso ready to go. But the great thing now at Starbucks is, is that if you go and you decide you want to hang out in Starbucks for a little bit, they're now doing ceramics, like glassware. So if you're going to go, you're going to meet a friend and you order a drink and you say, I want it here. You're going to get it in a mug or a glass. There's also a condiment bar. It's back.

On Kylie Kelsey's podcast, she was talking about when it's a kid's birthday and some parents give all the kids a present, even though it's only one kid's birthday, it reduces your birthday.

[Amy]

It's not their birthday, it's your birthday.

[Lunchbox]

And also, I think it teaches them to a degree that just because someone's getting presents doesn't mean you get presents. It feels very participation trophy esque.

[Bobby Bones]

I would agree with that, but I.

[Lunchbox]

Want to go to some parents here.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy, if it's one kid's birthday, do.

[Lunchbox]

You get the other kid a present?

[Amy]

Absolutely not. I've never even heard of this.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I've heard of it.

[Amy]

Oh, well, it's ridiculous. I have not. And I think that this is so crazy to even think that some parents.

[Bobby Bones]

Do that where it's like an older kid's birthday, so they get the younger kid something so she doesn't feel like she's being left out. And maybe it's not the same amount or same intensity of the present. Lunchbox.

[Eddie]

Never heard of it. Would never do it. That is absolutely stupid. And like she said, it is participation trophy esque. I mean, just because it's your brother's birthday, let your brother have the shine. You don't get any of the shine. Just sit over there and be quiet.

[Bobby Bones]

And Eddie, I'm assuming you didn't either.

[Scuba Steve]

No way, Jose. And I'm like everyone else. Never heard of this.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, Morgan, you have a bunch of sisters, right?

[Morgan]

Yeah, I have three older sisters.

[Bobby Bones]

Did they. You ever get a present on their birthday?

[Morgan]

I don't think they ever gave me a present.

[Bobby Bones]

Not your parents.

[Lunchbox]

That your parents ever.

[Bobby Bones]

If they're giving one of your sisters. You ever get like, a birthday present?

[Morgan]

Not that I remember.

[Scuba Steve]

I can't believe you've heard of this. Like, never have I heard of this.

[Eddie]

Never.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I've heard of a couple times where it's like, if we're Gonna Get.

[Lunchbox]

John 11 presents, we don't want his Sammy to feel like.

[Bobby Bones]

Cause Sammy's Way younger to feel like, oh, John's getting all the attention. That kind of sucks.

[Amy]

Well, how about Sammy? You wait till it's your birthday and then you get birthday.

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah, it's definitely a thing when you have, like, multiple kids. Like, you, like, say, if I go out of town and I bring something back for someone, I got to bring them all back.

[Amy]

That's different.

[Scuba Steve]

That is different. This is for a birthday, not a birthday.

[Amy]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

You guys are fine with Eddie.

[Lunchbox]

He's agreeing with you.

[Scuba Steve]

I'm agreeing with you.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, literally, Eddie was saying, you guys.

[Amy]

Are like, oh, I know. But I mean, I. Well, I know. I guess I was passionately agreeing with you that that would be okay.

[Scuba Steve]

Correct.

[Amy]

But this is obviously different.

[Bobby Bones]

What if you go away to something, though, Eddie, with your kids, and you want to do something only one of them would really like or be interested in, do you have to bring all the other three something?

[Scuba Steve]

No, no, no. Like, if one likes a rock concert or whatever and the others don't like rock music now, I'll just take one. They'll be fine.

[Bobby Bones]

And they're cool not getting anything.

[Scuba Steve]

Totally cool with that. I think eventually you have to take them to do whatever they want to do, but they're cool with it.

[Amy]

That's when you tell them it'll buff out. Like, it'll all even out eventually. Like, you may not go to this, but I'm going to take you to something else that somebody else doesn't get to go to.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think that's what buff out means. Like, it'll all even out.

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that's what buff out.

[Amy]

What does buff out mean?

[Bobby Bones]

Like, if you scuff the car. Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

If you're, like, hurt or something.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

I've been using that all wrong for a while now.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, use it how you want.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

You guys may have seen where Elon Musk sent the email. I was like, you need to tell me five things you've done at your job.

[Lunchbox]

Feel for the government, and then if.

[Bobby Bones]

You reply and we like it, you get to keep your job. It's kind of crazy, but they did that.

[Lunchbox]

Could you do that?

[Bobby Bones]

Could you list five things that you've done over the last week at your job?

[Amy]

Yeah, guys, we all could.

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah. Five things.

[Lunchbox]

But it does.

[Bobby Bones]

It's not like, push a button. Yeah, it does.

[Lunchbox]

It doesn't even have to be a job.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, I could go.

[Lunchbox]

I had Matt Jenkins, who's a big.

[Bobby Bones]

Songwriter, at my house because we're doing that songwriting show at the movie theater.

[Lunchbox]

Next week, all over the country.

[Bobby Bones]

So did that. Had a meeting with.

[Lunchbox]

I'm trying. I drink these energy drinks sometimes.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't really like what I'm. So I'm trying to, like, figure out how to make one. So I met with a company how to, like, make one.

[Scuba Steve]

That's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. But it's nowhere near close. It may never happen.

[Lunchbox]

I just.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't want to put. So I did that. I did the yellow.

[Lunchbox]

See, it's just a bunch of podcast stuff.

[Bobby Bones]

That's different. Do you have anything good? What'd you do? I don't know.

[Lunchbox]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

I keep my job.

[Amy]

Yeah. You what?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. I could keep my job with five.

[Amy]

Yes, you could. You could name more than that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but it's all, like, stupid stuff.

[Lunchbox]

That I do every day.

[Amy]

So I did.

[Scuba Steve]

Maybe that's just us.

[Amy]

Like a Hyundai. I did a Nissan one.

[Bobby Bones]

There you go.

[Amy]

You did a Hyundai one. I did a podcast interview at my house. I set up new cameras in my podcast room that I'm making at my house for something we have coming up. I recorded Women of I Heart Country. Did the countdown with you. I. We do show prep all the time.

[Bobby Bones]

Standard stuff. Yeah, Anything big lunchbox.

[Amy]

I guess. The Nissan one would be big for me.

[Eddie]

Yeah. I met one of the execs for the region.

[Lunchbox]

No, no. She came in here, but I met her.

[Scuba Steve]

We can all count.

[Eddie]

That said hello.

[Lunchbox]

You had no choice.

[Bobby Bones]

She kind of walked in. Okay, I hear you. Go ahead.

[Eddie]

You know what I'm saying. I met with our promotions department, talked about an upcoming promotion that I'm gonna be a part of. I had Troy from Australia on our. The sore losers interviewed him about life in Australia and the customs and everything over there.

[Bobby Bones]

Who's Troy?

[Scuba Steve]

The listener is a listener.

[Eddie]

Big fan.

[Bobby Bones]

Wasn't like a. Like a soccer player.

[Eddie]

Well, no, he's a news. He writes for a newspaper there.

[Lunchbox]

Got it.

[Eddie]

And so he's a reporter, and so we had him on the podcast. What else did I do?

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, that's chatted on Facebook, probably your friends from high school and.

[Eddie]

I haven't really chatted this week. It's been.

[Scuba Steve]

Still doing crossword puzzles.

[Eddie]

Been a slow week on the chat.

[Bobby Bones]

So if we looked at your computer right now in your chat, there'd be.

[Lunchbox]

No chatting at all.

[Eddie]

Oh, let me check.

[Amy]

Oh, Eddie and I met with McKitty. Programming.

[Scuba Steve]

We did programming songs. It's just about.

[Eddie]

Yeah, it's been.

[Scuba Steve]

Songs are in power rotation.

[Amy]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

Why?

[Amy]

Because we were Just curious.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, you're asking.

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah, we were curious about it.

[Amy]

Just to be in the know why?

[Scuba Steve]

And an artist that's no longer in rotation. Why?

[Amy]

Yeah, that was kind of crazy. That song's not in rotation anymore.

[Bobby Bones]

Why would you want to do that?

[Scuba Steve]

We just saw him, and we were like, how's work? And then he just kind of told us. Told us what he was doing, and we asked questions.

[Amy]

We sat in his office, had a meeting.

[Scuba Steve]

It was cool.

[Bobby Bones]

So you just saw, hey, what's up?

[Lunchbox]

And then you just followed up on the WhatsApp?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah. But we had knowledge after that meeting.

[Lunchbox]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, that's good. It wasn't a meeting.

[Lunchbox]

It was just saying hi to a friend.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Scuba Steve]

But it turned into a meeting.

[Amy]

Felt like a meeting.

[Bobby Bones]

Is this a meeting?

[Scuba Steve]

Could be.

[Eddie]

Kind of.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie, what else? What you do?

[Scuba Steve]

Oh, I did have a call with a client that's got. This is crazy. So some person texted me and said, hey, we're interested in doing some, like, ads. Like, my. My boss wants to do some ads on the radio show. How do I do it? And I'm like, I have no idea. So I passed her on to a salesperson. The salesperson said, hey, I think they're in. Would you call the owner? So I call the owner. I think we're going to do spots. And I did it all myself. That's.

[Amy]

That's awesome.

[Scuba Steve]

Like, that. I've never done that before.

[Lunchbox]

That was good.

[Bobby Bones]

And you have a relationship with the person.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Which is a big deal.

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

When it comes to.

[Scuba Steve]

And I like the restaurant, so that's cool.

[Amy]

You know, it was kind of fun. This week is Scuba Steve came to my house. That's never happened before.

[Bobby Bones]

Why? What. What's up?

[Amy]

He was at my house for. I didn't know he was going to come. And all of a sudden, Scuba Steve.

[Bobby Bones]

Was looking at my window, and I was like, come on in.

[Amy]

No, I thought. I was like, oh, this is like, a one for the books.

[Eddie]

What was he at your house for?

[Amy]

For the Nissan thing.

[Lunchbox]

Got it.

[Amy]

But I had no idea that Scuba was coming. And then until, like, last minute, and I was like, oh, this is cool. And Rick came. All these people. I thought it was just gonna be.

[Bobby Bones]

No one said they were coming to your house. They all showed up at your house.

[Amy]

No, I knew by the time they arrived they were coming, but it was like, that day, I started to see emails of all the people that were gonna be there, and I kind of thought it was just gonna be me.

[Scuba Steve]

What was going on at Your house?

[Amy]

I was filming some stuff for Nissan.

[Scuba Steve]

Oh, got it.

[Amy]

And they dropped off a car, but they would barely let me drive it.

[Eddie]

Didn't get to keep it reputation.

[Amy]

Did you keep it? Do you remember the last time they let me keep a car?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, you wrecked it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I wouldn't let her go near it. Every time she had to move it.

[Scuba Steve]

Somewhere, he'd go, hey, can you.

[Lunchbox]

I got that. I'll move it for you. Where do you want it to go?

[Amy]

Yeah, I was just moving it in my driveway, like, moving it.

[Scuba Steve]

They listen to the show.

[Bobby Bones]

They didn't even hear the segment about.

[Lunchbox]

The parking garage that happened earlier today.

[Amy]

So it was kind of funny. Like, I think at one point they finally let me just reverse it like 5 inches because I was like, this will be a lot faster if you just let me do it real quick because.

[Bobby Bones]

Were you just standing around it, like waving?

[Amy]

No, we had to like move it to shoot it in different spots. And I was in the driver's seat, buckled up the whole time. You have to have your seatbelt on at all times. And I kept having to get out and he would have to move it. And I'm like, look, I can just put it reverse and back it up real quick. It'll be so much faster. And they finally let me do that.

[Lunchbox]

Hesitant.

[Amy]

Yeah, I know. It was legal.

[Scuba Steve]

They know. They know what's up.

[Bobby Bones]

That's weird.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Well, you know what?

[Bobby Bones]

You all get to keep your job.

[Lunchbox]

Yes.

[Scuba Steve]

Thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

You all get to keep your.

[Lunchbox]

I'd ask Morgan, she'd have like 20.

[Morgan]

I do have a lot of stuff. You want to hear it?

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Morgan]

I created content for bobbybones.com I edited podcast. I interviewed Scuba Steve for the weekend show. I came up with social media concepts for the Bobby Bones show. I talked to advertisers about the social media stuff we need to do on the Bobby Bones Show. Exchange a whole lot of emails about advertising stuff on the Bobby Bones show. Do you want me to keep going?

[Lunchbox]

No, I'm good.

[Scuba Steve]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

She'd go for a while. I figure, okay, we'll do this again next week, guys. Keep track of it.

[Scuba Steve]

Oh, boy.

[Lunchbox]

And I need every week five things.

[Bobby Bones]

Different things that you've done.

[Lunchbox]

Bobby Bone show bonehead story of the day.

[Eddie]

This story comes to us from Pennsylvania. A 46 year old man walked into a casino, is feeling lucky, sits down at a slot machine, put some money in.

[Scuba Steve]

Dang ding, ding.

[Eddie]

He won the $57,000 jackpot. Only problem is he had signed up a couple years ago. On an exclusion list that says he has a gambling problem, that he will not gamble in the state of Pennsylvania. So he didn't get the money. He got charged with trespassing.

[Amy]

Wait, that's a thing?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You can ban yourself from a casino.

[Amy]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

You have to sign, but you. Yeah, that's what happened. He basically banned himself from the casino, then went back in and won. But because he was banned.

[Amy]

But he banned himself. Can you unban yourself?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it's you.

[Bobby Bones]

But he banned himself because of some issues that he had prior. But. Yes.

[Amy]

So then you just surrender it over to the state.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

And he got charged with trespassing.

[Bobby Bones]

You can't even go in there.

[Scuba Steve]

Terrible.

[Amy]

Did he forget, maybe that he signed? Like, why would you keep gambling? Because, like, then you're just really wasting your money.

[Bobby Bones]

I would say probably he has a gambling addiction.

[Lunchbox]

But on top of that, most of.

[Bobby Bones]

The time, when you go in, you don't win massively. And if you're not winning over a certain amount, they're not checking.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You just take your money and go to the cage.

[Amy]

So he was just feeding his addiction, and then.

[Bobby Bones]

Then he accidentally hit way too big. Like, that was it. He's probably been going the whole. I don't know this, but I would imagine he's been going a lot or at least somewhat frequently. But if you don't hit massively, they don't do the whole tax thing where they have to come and see who you are.

[Amy]

Right. Man. I feel like we also learned, like, I had no idea you could ban yourself from gambling.

[Bobby Bones]

Our. Well, my guy Reed, who, like, travels with me and does all my digital stuff, he's on our show 25 whistles as well. He banned himself from the DraftKings app. And he was winning. He was winning too much. And he was like. And he's very responsible. He called the number, and he's like, I need to ban myself. I've been winning too much, and this is too fun. Is the only person I've ever heard of to ban themselves from winning too much.

[Amy]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

And then he called you get back on. And they were like, I don't think so. You banned yourself. And so it's been a process for him to get back on, but he was responsible and was like, ooh, I might like this a little too much. But because he was winning, it's the craziest thing I ever heard. Behind that story there. Okay.

[Eddie]

I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day.

[Lunchbox]

Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie, what happened?

[Scuba Steve]

Kids Sports, man. They're just getting out of control.

[Bobby Bones]

Money or fights?

[Scuba Steve]

Money. Well, both, I guess, but I'm talking about money for a second because my six year old, he started in baseball again and he outgrew his gloves. So we went to the store to get a glove. There were gloves up to $300 for six year olds. Who buys $300 baseball gloves for six year olds? He's not going to go to the major leagues. He may not even go to college and play baseball. Like, what are we doing here?

[Bobby Bones]

I would say you don't have to buy the glove.

[Lunchbox]

I don't think there's anything wrong with just offering something that I that wildly.

[Bobby Bones]

Expensive and crazy never would never buy it. I've bought two gloves in the past year and I think I spent 40 bucks even for, you know, and I'm not a kid and I'm like, does.

[Scuba Steve]

The glove extend and catch the ball like outside your hand? If it does something like that, I understand. But it's just a regular glove.

[Lunchbox]

I would say that is simply a brand flex. And not even for the kid because.

[Bobby Bones]

It'S that small of a glove. It's for the parent. It's like a parent who dresses their four year old in Gucci or Prada head to toe. It's not so much for the kid.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

It's for the parent to be like, look at my kid. I put him on social media. We'll walk down the street. You look at designer head to toe.

[Lunchbox]

That's just that in that world I.

[Bobby Bones]

Can understand why that would be frustrating.

[Lunchbox]

Because does your 6 year old even know?

[Bobby Bones]

Do they care?

[Lunchbox]

Do they want the expensive glove?

[Scuba Steve]

No, he just needs a baseball glove.

[Amy]

You should go to play it again. Sports.

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah, I've done that before. I like that.

[Bobby Bones]

One of the greatest stores.

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

In the history of storekind because they do have new stuff, but they have like mildly used stuff. They got stuff too. That's, that's all beat to crap, but even cheaper. Play it again. Sports is awesome.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Not commercial.

[Scuba Steve]

And they buy your old stuff like right. Like after our glove doesn't fit, our boys just take it over there and sell it.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't sell my old stuff, but.

[Lunchbox]

I go and buy other stuff.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but when he gets nine or 10, it's probably gonna change where he's gonna want some of that stuff because.

[Lunchbox]

His other players, other buddies on the.

[Bobby Bones]

Team, they have like bats. Bats are crazy expensive.

[Scuba Steve]

Bats are really expensive too. I just don't understand like maybe 1% of all of these kids in this city May go play in college. And you're going to spend that much money? These leagues, too, are so expensive.

[Bobby Bones]

To pay to play, Just to play. So it's not school because. School?

[Scuba Steve]

No, no, no school.

[Bobby Bones]

You have to pay for all the equipment, of course.

[Amy]

Well, not when you're six.

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah, everything before middle school is all, like, just private league, really.

[Bobby Bones]

Is your kid good?

[Scuba Steve]

Yeah, he's really good.

[Amy]

Oh, so he could. Maybe he could.

[Lunchbox]

I'm telling you.

[Amy]

You're saying there's a chance.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie's youngest and get in the glove.

[Amy]

Get in the glove.

[Bobby Bones]

He's a monster, but he's good with a $20 glove.

[Scuba Steve]

He's good with, like, the cheap glove.

[Bobby Bones]

There's really not gonna be a difference. I would say the difference, though, is the expensive glove probably will last longer.

[Lunchbox]

But his hands gonna grow more than it's gonna last.

[Bobby Bones]

So, yeah, I'm sorry about that. And then I was watching my buddy Tommy Chuck, who works for our station down in Tampa.

[Lunchbox]

He posted a video of, like, at.

[Bobby Bones]

A game that his son is a really good baseball player.

[Lunchbox]

His son's like, a teenager now, where.

[Bobby Bones]

The parents are, like, fighting with each other.

[Amy]

Some parents get really into it.

[Scuba Steve]

They do, man. They really get into it. I don't know what it is. Maybe it's like, old players that, like, just didn't make it, and they're just taking it out on their kid because they want them to do what they couldn't do.

[Bobby Bones]

I think it's probably living vicariously through their kids.

[Scuba Steve]

Right?

[Bobby Bones]

Just in general, even if they're not old players.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, that sucks.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, we're out. We're out, we're out, we're out. Thank you. We will see you tomorrow. Kip Moore is on the show in studio tomorrow. Bye, everybody. The Bobby Bones Show. The Bobby Bones show theme song written, produced and sang by Reed Yarberry. You can find his Instagram reedyarberry Scuba Steve Executive Producer Raymundo Head of Production I'm Bobby Bones.
