Come on, Bobby Bones transmitting across America.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

This is a Bobby Bone Show.

[Bobby Bones]

Go. Welcome to Tuesday's show Morning Studio.

[Lunchbox]

Morning Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy's saying that babysitting rates are going up and up and up.

[Amy]

Yeah, they're on the rise, so beware, cuz Bobby, you're about to have a baby.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but a baby baby, okay?

[Amy]

And yeah, you probably want to pay more even for care of a baby baby.

[Lunchbox]

Oh man, I don't even know.

[Amy]

Okay, so I, I Started researching this after my friend told me that her 19 year old daughter, who was also in college, has been babysitting for extra money and she charges $30 an hour.

[Lunchbox]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know the rate, but you know what? I'll pay a million dollars an hour. That's how much I love my kid.

[Lunchbox]

Stop. Don't even say that, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

Obviously somebody uses that against me. I already say, yeah, it's $30 an hour. I have no frame of reference here. Is that a lot for a babysitter?

[Amy]

It seems like a lot to me, especially for one child. I think if you have multiple children, I could see that start to make sense.

[Bobby Bones]

But that's like what a school teacher should get paid. That many, that many kids.

[Amy]

Good point. What is their hourly rate?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. I'll figure that out though. I'll do eight hours a day. You do that. I'll keep going.

[Amy]

I. I did some research as well because I was like, is this for real? And according to Urban Sitter, it says that on average it's about $26 an hour for one child and nearly $30 for two children. Now, depends on where you live in the country because that's like California rates, like San Francisco sitting at like that $29 an hour rate. And then down in San Antonio, you can pay about $18 an hour.

[Bobby Bones]

Also, it seems that if you're babysitting as a job to make a little extra money as a teenager or young adult, you probably shouldn't get paid as much as if you hire a babysitter that has CPR skills.

[Amy]

Right. That has more life experience.

[Bobby Bones]

An education in children for teachers. Generally speaking, if you were to take a teacher's salary and break it down, they would make $27.25 per hour.

[Amy]

See, if I had was a teacher and saw Urban Sitter posting this or whatever, I'd be like, huh, yeah, take.

[Lunchbox]

That to the principal.

[Bobby Bones]

Secondly, I'd be like, why are you on Urban Center? Get back to work. Get back to teaching the kids. Get off Urban Center.

[Amy]

Well, I don't know. I mean, I only found Urban center because I googled it after my curiosity got the best of me. And I guess I would just think like, oh, I'm a teacher with all these skills. Like, I could be a nanny and maybe make more.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Because that feels different than a babysitter. True.

[Amy]

I'm just saying, if you're a teacher looking to switch careers but still invest.

[Bobby Bones]

In children, how much does nanny make per hour?

[Amy]

I mean, I Think that that varies, but.

[Bobby Bones]

But, yeah, but you can look at all in, like, all states.

[Lunchbox]

And then what? Like, live in nannies, Right? Like, the nannies.

[Amy]

That would be very different, but that.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm confused by because I don't think you pay them as much. They just get to live there as part of their money.

[Amy]

Yeah. And then, see, to me, that part would get confusing because, like, when are they off?

[Bobby Bones]

Nannies make between 2019 to $26 an hour. When are they off? Like, if they ever officially off.

[Lunchbox]

They may.

[Amy]

Contractually. There has to be something where it's like, you know, I can't. I'm not just, like, totally available all the time, but, like, au pairs. Those are the nannies that come from other countries and they come to live with you. And they are more. Can be, at times more affordable than hiring a domestic nanny.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know anything about an au pair, except I saw it on a Netflix show once in a foreign country. I would have thought an au pair was a large pear. Like, we have pears. Or you can have an au pair. Like, I don't know that.

[Amy]

Yeah, au pair. Like, some people bring in, especially because someone, like, they want to come work in America, they may come from, like. Let's just say they're in Germany or something.

[Bobby Bones]

Are they legal?

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Amy]

Yeah. So you go. You go through a hiring agency to find your au pair, and everything would be done legally.

[Bobby Bones]

Pay them less.

[Amy]

I mean, I think just generally speaking, they.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know much about being right, but that don't sound right.

[Amy]

It's still a good. It's still a fair wage. I just think for some people, because I remember when I was looking at things and just talking to people when we were about to become parents and we were both working full time, like, I was just curious. So I started doing research. And some people, that's why they do it.

[Eddie]

They.

[Amy]

They ran the numbers, they did the math, and au pair sounds super fancy, and it is. But it would cost them less if they had someone come and live with them from another country. Because when you're coming from another country, you have nowhere to live. You have nowhere to go. You have no life. You have no friends. They're more available.

[Bobby Bones]

I kind of like that, I think.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

To raise a kid.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, sure. Their only family is the kids.

[Bobby Bones]

They make babysitters for super babies.

[Amy]

Yeah, babysitters for newborns.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Yes. I just think for parents, sometimes it's really difficult.

[Bobby Bones]

Million dollars an hour.

[Amy]

Leave a newborn.

[Lunchbox]

You said it.

[Bobby Bones]

Million dollars an hour for a Babysitter for a super baby.

[Amy]

Yeah, but.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. Yeah.

[Amy]

Like, if you wanted to go to.

[Bobby Bones]

Dinner, can you take super babies, like, on trips?

[Amy]

That's up to you. I think that they are.

[Lunchbox]

Are you asking, are they able to go on trips?

[Amy]

So Eddie had super babies. I never gave birth, so I never had a super baby. But I would think it's advised. You wait till a certain point because they're so tiny and vulnerable, like, you don't want to expose them to.

[Bobby Bones]

So was I till sixth grade and I still did stuff.

[Amy]

You were tiny and vulnerable.

[Bobby Bones]

Grow till, like, way later.

[Amy]

Well, but I mean, like, are you gonna put them on an airplane? Like, are you.

[Lunchbox]

What do you mean?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm going with them.

[Amy]

Right? I know, but they're so little, and you're exposing their immune system to things, and maybe that's better. I don't know. Maybe it's good. Get them rolling in the dirt.

[Lunchbox]

But, Eddie, like, a car ride is great because, I mean, they love cars anyway.

[Amy]

A car. You know, I think he's asking about a car ride.

[Lunchbox]

You're not gonna drive to Arkansas? Take the baby with you? Yeah, and they love the back seat. They're just back there kind of just shaking or whatever. Like, no big deal. But, like, flying, it's just a gamble.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, a gamble.

[Lunchbox]

Some babies are good with flying. Some will cry the entire.

[Bobby Bones]

But I think there's a difference in a baby and a super baby. There is.

[Lunchbox]

There is. And I. I don't remember traveling too much with a super baby.

[Amy]

I think you want to be home. You're, like, nesting, right?

[Lunchbox]

Mainly because you're just scared, dude. You don't. You don't know. Like, you don't know what the. What you're doing with the baby.

[Bobby Bones]

We plan to have. Give our baby so much adversity. I like baby walk. I'm just born. I'm tough. You ain't getting food unless you walk over here. Like, I didn't grow up easy. I don't want to have some kid that grows up easy.

[Lunchbox]

That's interesting. My dad's motto was, like, I don't want you to grow up the way I grew up. Which was, I want.

[Bobby Bones]

I want my baby to grow up how I grew up.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

It's not going to have that experience.

[Bobby Bones]

And they end up being a.

[Amy]

Unless you build, like, a certain little offshoot of your house. Small. And then they have to sleep on a couch and you don't give them a bedroom.

[Lunchbox]

Sell your car, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

It's like Boy Named Sue. I just leave. Just to give the baby a harder life so they're stronger whenever they're. Yeah, I got a lot of stuff to deal with up here in the old brain.

[Amy]

Yeah, I'm sure that is difficult for you to. To figure out how you're going to do that, because you do live a drastically different life than how you grew up. And you. You probably struggle. Like Eddie's saying, some parents are like, whatever, I'm gonna give my kid whatever they want because I never had it. And you have to decide who.

[Bobby Bones]

Who you're.

[Amy]

Who you're gonna be. I'm sure there's a middle ground.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't want that like you can. I want it even harder on them.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, and you even have time after the baby's born. Like, you got time.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it comes out. Day one, start like, hey, cut your own cord.

[Amy]

The good news is, hey, baby, do it yourself.

[Lunchbox]

You're hungry.

[Eddie]

Feed yourself. Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

Yep. Somewhere in this house, there's a bottle of something.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Find it.

[Amy]

You have a partner, though. And she. She grew up.

[Bobby Bones]

She's going to want to do things healthy. She had a great family.

[Amy]

Well, I think that's great that you have a partner that had some stability growing up, so she can offer that to your child.

[Bobby Bones]

I was thinking, first five years of baby's life, nothing but Manwich.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, man. That's good stuff, though. I love Manwich.

[Amy]

Well, I mean, there's going to be some nutrient deficiencies.

[Bobby Bones]

Look at me, man. Which Mountain Dew.

[Lunchbox]

Just fine.

[Bobby Bones]

That's pretty much all it was. Maybe an occasional baloney sandwich on white bread with mustard and sometimes no baloney, just mustard on the white bre.

[Amy]

Okay. I mean, technically, first five years, the baby could live off milk or man.

[Bobby Bones]

Witch and Mountain dew. That's, oh, 30 bucks an hour. What do we decide? That's more. It's a lot.

[Lunchbox]

That's a lot.

[Amy]

It's a lot, dude. It's a lot. Like, get down to San Antonio.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Where it's cheaper.

[Bobby Bones]

So rent a. Take your kid, rent a hotel, have them babysat in San Antonio.

[Lunchbox]

Have dinner at the Riverwalk.

[Bobby Bones]

Got it.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

There's a question to be had. Send it into the mailbag.

[Bobby Bones]

Hello, Bobby Bones. A few months ago, my boyfriend moved in with me. Before he did, we agreed to split everything evenly. Rent, bills, groceries, all of it. Fast forward to now. He just lost his job. He's stressed. I feel bad for him. And he's actively looking for work. But I'm wondering, what am I supposed to do? Do I still expect him to pay his share Even though he's struggling, or do I step in and cover more and hope there's not resentment from me later?

[Lunchbox]

What.

[Bobby Bones]

What do you think I should do? Sign? Split the bill? Sally, it depends how long you've been together, too. And, like, if you've been together so long that you know you're going to get married, I think you jump in and help. However, there's still a pride thing where the guy may not want you to jump in yet. He lost his job. Maybe he's got some money saved up and he doesn't want you to jump in and have to rescue him. I think you're gonna have to use what you know about your boyfriend in this situation, because if you just go, hey, I'm gonna cover, you know, half of your bills as well, he might take offense to that. He's like, I can do this. I can do this myself. He's obviously in a super sensitive situation where he lost his job.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

That being said, he might actually need it as well. What I would encourage you to do is help in little ways that you don't have to scream that you're helping right now. Because I think he will accept and appreciate that and not feel lesser than. If that's how he feels by you doing that, it'll give him a little more money to help pay the bills. And I think he owes it to you, if that's the case, to come to you and say, hey, can you help me out a little bit? I think he owes that to you in the relationship. Like, I don't have a job. I'll pay you back. Can you help me with bills?

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I think you go forward the same until he has an adult, mature conversation with you that he needs help. But I think you can also help in other ways that aren't and haven't been defined.

[Amy]

I like that.

[Bobby Bones]

Because that sucks.

[Amy]

Isn't it free? It's money he maybe would have been spending anyway, but then he can put that towards his half.

[Bobby Bones]

A lot of pride, A little sneaky. A lot of pride here. So. And guys, we have it in a weird way, and, you know, we want to be what society has told us we need to be. And he may have a problem with losing that. That's part of his identity. So that'd be my recommendation. Anybody else?

[Lunchbox]

No. Spot on. Oh, I mean, that's hard, though. It's hard to just like, be like, ah, can you cover me? You know, because I.

[Amy]

But I mean, she knows you lost.

[Bobby Bones]

Your job and it has to be covered.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Right.

[Amy]

And Also beware, though. Some guys do not care. So don't get stuck in a situation where now you're just not even gonna jump into this.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, I'm not leaning into. Why am you saying this? Good. I'm not going.

[Amy]

No, I just think that, like, some guys don't have that. They don't have that pride there.

[Bobby Bones]

They don't.

[Amy]

They're like, oh, yeah, I don't.

[Eddie]

How do you know?

[Amy]

Job.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

How do you know this?

[Amy]

Some guys don't have jobs or cars.

[Bobby Bones]

We all know what we're alluding to with Amy, and it's not her ex husband. Don't worry, we're not talking about that.

[Eddie]

No, it was.

[Bobby Bones]

It's the in between.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Never met the guy. We saw him driving a car, though, didn't we? We kept our mouth shut. We didn't know what was going on. All right, there we go. Close it up, Bones. A guy will do anything to impress a girl. Like, really, through my lifetime of dating, courting, getting my wife to marry me. Like, when we really want to impress somebody, we'll look stupid. We'll try things. And so this guy shouldn't have done this, but, like, I get it. A retired combat veteran has been sentenced to two years in prison for sharing classified battle plans to impress a date.

[Lunchbox]

It's like, check this out.

[Amy]

Oh, my gosh.

[Lunchbox]

You're the only one that knows it, by the way.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, he was sentenced to two years in prison. What woman also is gonna want to know this?

[Lunchbox]

Right? Nobody care. They don't care.

[Bobby Bones]

For sharing classified military information with a woman that he was dating in an attempt to impress her. He had served in the army, later worked as a civilian contractor for U. S. Central Command at McDill Air Force Base. Had top secret clearance. You know, they honey pot people if she would have been a spy because they honeypot people with, like, super hot girl just happens to be at this place. They meet him, makes it all organic, and they get it out of them.

[Amy]

Wait, so how did they find out she turned him in?

[Bobby Bones]

So in October 2024, he sent the woman a photo of classified. Why would you even send.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Send a picture?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, just say it with your mouth.

[Amy]

That's bizarre.

[Bobby Bones]

Don't do that. But if you're gonna do that. In an email detailing plans of a future US Military operation, the fact that this is going to impress any non spy woman later linked to airstrikes in Yemen under Operation Poseidon Archer. The email was marked secret rel To USA F V E Y. I don't know what that means, but it's restricting to authorized personnel. And they say there's no evidence that he acted for financial gain or foreign interest. Like, he wasn't doing it for money. But prosecutors argued his actions jeopardized national security. A search of his home uncovered additional classified materials that he was not authorized to keep. He pleaded guilty and expressed shame from Yahoo.

[Amy]

So just for any other guys considering a move like this, what is more attractive is knowing that you have a certain level of security clearance and you don't say it like that's hot that you. It's like, you know stuff. But like, I can't talk about it. Like, I'm sorry. Like that's more attractive than if you're.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, let me run this, check out.

[Amy]

This battle plan for Yemen.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, I agree. I don't know. I guess if I was a big Yemen battle fan. But if I go around first date and I'm like this, so guess what? I got a secret. Can't tell you though. Well, I just got pretty hot.

[Amy]

No, I don't think you believe. No, I don't think it's gonna happen on the first day. I'm just saying, like in a relationship, maybe you learn something about your partner. You know, they've got stuff like I was married to someone that couldn't tell me certain parts of his jobs or sometimes where he was even traveling. And there was something a little like dangerous. Yeah. Like secretive about that. And if, but if he were to come home and like tell me everything that I knew he wasn't supposed to tell me, I would have found that unattractive. Because I'm like, wait, you've under. Like you have this oath to your country, to your, to the air force, to your unit, and you're like just telling me everything.

[Bobby Bones]

You can't do this guy, you know that you're going to jail. But. And I don't. No part of me subscribes to. That was a good idea. But I get it. He's just looking for anything to impress a girl.

[Lunchbox]

Right?

[Amy]

They busted him because he sent the photo.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, but how cool though? You're dating this guy and then you look on the news like, wow, there's Yemen getting blown up. That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, he was right. He must be a big deal. Here's another one, similar ish. And the nuttiness of it from dick certo. A 26 year old man was arrested for allegedly taking a woman's four parakeets hostage and threatening to harm them unless she agreed to meet with him.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Dang.

[Amy]

That'S not attractive.

[Lunchbox]

She must have loved those birds.

[Bobby Bones]

The incident happened early February when a man contacted the woman through a mobile app and sent messages and said, hey, I have your birds. Pressuring her to comply and saying, I'll kill your birds if you don't meet me.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

What on earth?

[Amy]

So what'd you do?

[Bobby Bones]

Instead of responding, the woman called police. Police intervened before any harm was done and arrested the suspect. He admitted the allegations. All four parakeets were confirmed. Safe. But here's two dudes doing whatever they can to get action. Guys will do stupid things to try to get some action to get a girl.

[Amy]

Oh my gosh. Like I'm thinking like she used to.

[Bobby Bones]

There's no limit. He kidnapped birds.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So he knows like he's been in her home, he's taken her things like she needs to move and he thought.

[Bobby Bones]

I would bet you he stole her panties. I'm just saying it's a good chance of that. Wild thought. I bet you he also has her underwear. Bones from executive producer Taylor Sheridan.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Let's go on the Bobby Bones show now.

[Bobby Bones]

Stephen Wilson Jr. What are you doing at Mars?

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

They hired me as a product developer and a food scientist and so I started developing products for them. Developed this one product called Dennis Sticks Fresh. I don't know if you have a dog. It's like this green.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Breath fresh.

[Bobby Bones]

We use those.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Yeah, yeah, that's my baby. It's still on the shelf doing well and you know, a couple other products I got to help develop or co develop. And that was my life. And I was kind of doing the whole corporate thing and how long? Probably three and a half, four years. I had a really great boss because I was writing songs the whole time. I could almost like work in a lab and do my work with one hand and write songs with the other. And I had a great boss that had been there for quite some time. And, you know, he kind of saw myself in him. I think he knew where my heart was. He knew I wasn't supposed to be there. In the weirdest way, I think he, he knew that. And he told me, hey, they're about to put the golden handcuffs on you. That's what he is, a really powerful metaphor. And I'm a word nerd. And he knew that I like words and that he knew that was going to do something to me. So take, you know, do with that what you will, but you know, you're doing great here, but they're going to chain you to that desk and your dreams of being a songwriter are going to die with it. I said that to you? Yeah. So I said, you know, it's going to be impossible to blow your world up. Then you're going to have a better car, a better house, maybe your kid in private school. Blowing up that world is going to be very hard, if not impossible. I recommend you blow it up now while there's less pieces to pick up, and it's going to be terrible, but I think it's going to be way more terrible, if not impossible. And I fear that, you know, your inability to do that later would just be a heartbreaking situation for you. I just want you to know that's kind of coming down the pike. I see it, like, 10 years down the road for you. Just saying, you know, cheers. Have a good day. I put in my two weeks, six weeks after that conversation, I walked out of there. And, you know, everybody thought I was crazy. Like, what are you going to do? Like, they all thought I was, like, going to Nestle or something. I was like, nestle, get you? And I was like, no, no, no. Nashville did. And. And they're like, where are you going to? So you going to go write songs for somebody? I was like, no. Like, you got a publishing deal? No. Someone's cutting your songs, right? No. Have you ever sang a song before? No.

[Bobby Bones]

So at this point, you weren't even singing?

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

No. I'd never sang a song for anybody in my life. And so that was, you know, that was a lot to come to terms with, but, you know, it was a real leap of faith.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's go on the Bobby Bones show now.

[Amy]

Stephen Wilson Jr.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Two weeks after he died, I get invited to the Black Hills of South Dakota to play. And they asked me to play a cover. And I was, like, completely. I hadn't slept in, like, a week, and I was in terrible shape. I played that song, Stand By Me. I'd never performed it, really, in front of anybody, and the whole place went crazy. But the portal part of it was like. It opened up this portal on stage. Like, it felt like my dad was a little kid on my shoulders. There's like, this reversal of roles, kind of a weird energy exchange.

[Lunchbox]

And.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

And that's when everything changed. I felt this crazy amount of emotion and almost lost it during it, but I didn't. Back in November of last year, I played Stand by me at the CMAs. That song is. It's changed my life.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you think that'll be a song that you will always play, or do you think that'll be a song that eventually you go as a cover? I. I think I'm going to retire that one.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Ah, no, it's. That song has transcended any thing that I've. Any plans that I have. It's like. It's been like a gift from God. I mean, the.

[Bobby Bones]

The way that place erupted that night at the CMAs. And it was. It was. It was special. And I'm so jaded. I've seen everything. But even there have been a few of those over my, you know, 15 or so years here. Like Stapleton doing that with Justin Timberlake, like you doing Stand By Me. There are only a few of those. And that was one of those. And I think you've probably heard that right from.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Well, I have from time to time. But it. Honestly, I don't remember the experience back to the emotional. You don't.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't remember it?

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

I don't at all. I don't remember any of it. And I still haven't watched it, and I don't think I ever will. I've seen clips of it, of course, online. But is it because you want to.

[Bobby Bones]

Remember it like you remember it?

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Yeah. Not remembering it at all. And, you know, singing that song. I'm a song at the funeral. Yeah, it was the same shield that night at the CMAs, because there's no reality in which I should have not like, just completely lost it on that stage. Playing that song with the history behind it, the momentous nature of that particular opportunity and experience. So it was a lot. And I think that's the reason why I don't remember it. I don't really remember singing that song at my dad's funeral either. I know I did it, but, yeah, there's, like, I think, you know, your body or your mind or your spirit or something bigger, like, finds a way to kind of protect you temporarily from it so you can just get through it, because. And that's what tells me and shows me that this is all bigger than me. Because the point wasn't for me to have this crazy reconnection with my father that night. The point was for my father to show up in that room and connect with everybody else but me. And I just was more or less the. The transmitter. That was the goal. I knew he was going to show up. I didn't know he's gonna show up like that. Let's go on the Bobby Bones show now.

[Amy]

Stephen Wilson Jr.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Blue, honestly, changed my life.

[Bobby Bones]

Me too.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

I heard My Name is Jonas on the radio one time, and I, like, I was so angry that I couldn't hear it again. I was like, where do I find this song? How do I find out who this band is? And I started watching him TV incessantly, just to try to see if they would come up again. I never saw this My Name Is Jonas song. And then this video for this song called the Sweater song came on and I was like, so I hadn't heard that yet. And I liked that just as much. It was so quirky. The video was so creatively shot and everything about the song was just amazing to me. And I told my dad, I need to get some notebooks from Walmart. And he was like, notebooks from Walmart? He's like, okay. And I was like, you take me to Walmart. I had like no money. And even back then, like CDs were like $25 and I had no money. And $25 was. There's no way my dad was going to give me $25. I just knew that for a fact. But he would buy maybe a notebook or something for me. And I said, you know, can I have five bucks to buy a notebook? He took me there. We went to Walmart. And I don't care that Walmart knows this. I used to work for them at their distribution center, but they got their money's worth out of me, I'll tell you that. And you got a cd. I went in there, I stole that cd. I went in there, I told my dad, I'm going to go in and get a notebook. And I went in and I spent the next 15 minutes. I've never stolen anything in my life ever. Like, my dad hates thieves. And I, you know, it was always just like the cardinal sin to him was theft. So I knew like, if I got caught, the most supreme beating ever was going to come behind it. I was like, don't care. I'll die for this. I got it. I'll go to jail for this. I'll go boys school. I don't care. And I went in there and I got like a magazine and I figured out a way to stick it in there. And I just like walked out of there like, you know, like I own the place and just walked right out with that cd. You know, they had that long little plastic thing on it. Just fearlessly and got out of there with it, walked to the truck. I couldn't believe I got it. And I went home and I wore that CD out. It just, it changed my life, Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

I love Gary. It reminds me of my hometown.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Like, no, thank you, people in my hometown.

[Bobby Bones]

I just feel like that's a song for people to grow up around. Hard working, blue collar people. Yeah. When you write that song, what was the intention?

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

It was rooted in a tragedy and the intention was to celebrate those blue collar people. That was, that became the, the motive. But it, it started with a memorial sign on the Side of the road of a highway. I was driving down and driving home and I saw this sign and it said in memory of Gary. And there was a picture of a boy that couldn't have been maybe 16 years old in high school. And I would guess that he passed away on that highway in a car accident perhaps. And I said, there ain't a lot of boys named Gary these days. Like because it was a young boy like 16 years old named Gary. And I was like, man, I bet that kid can fix anything. And I started thinking about the Gary's that I grew up with. And because I grew up in a body shop, a body shop full of Gary's. Not the names Gary, but, you know, the metaphorical Gary. I started thinking of Gary as like endangered species or like, you know, if what is a Gary, what are the attributes of a Gary? It occurred to me, you know, if there ain't a lot of boys named Gary these days, that our Gary's are endangered, they are going extinct. And the end of the day though, there's still electricity to be ran and there's still septic tanks to be tended to and there's still plumbing to be done and, and there's still so many Gary's that actually make the world go around like, you know, I mean, iPhones and all that are cool, but when life gets real, you're going to need a Gary. When your H Vac blows in the middle of the summer, in August, you know, chat GPT ain't gonna do nothing.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, I can't make a Gary.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Yeah, yeah, but, yeah, exactly. And, and I started to think about all of those scenarios. These Gary's are all over the world, you know, these little micro superheroes just getting everybody's life back on track and with fear of being forgotten forever. And so if you can show me a 10 year old Gary, we will bubble wrap him. We will protect him.

[Bobby Bones]

Listen to that. Full interview on the Bobby Cast. Just go search for it wherever you listen to podcasts. Also, if you want to watch it, it's on Netflix. I searched Riddles for Kids.

[Eddie]

Oh.

[Lunchbox]

[Eddie]

I believe at the beginning of this game someone said, oh, he just doesn't have it today.

[Lunchbox]

I said that.

[Amy]

That was Eddie.

[Bobby Bones]

I think generally he's the best at this game.

[Amy]

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

So good. One on one running back.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you want to one on one run it back or no, because today, right now. Okay, then you're the loser. You're the loser, Eddie. You're the loser.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

And you know what that means.

[Bobby Bones]

[Bobby Bones]

Now time for the morning corny Morning.

[Eddie]

The morning corny.

[Amy]

Who is a horse's favorite painter? This isn't investigative, guys.

[Lunchbox]

Still thinking.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, sometimes makes me. I like to get my brain going.

[Lunchbox]

Banksy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Leonard.

[Bobby Bones]

Who?

[Amy]

Monet.

[Bobby Bones]

That was the morning corny. What do you think? A Daily glass of wine. Good or bad. You've heard this forever.

[Amy]

What you hear is that it's good for your heart and stuff.

[Bobby Bones]

And probably the person who did that research is Mr. Wine himself.

[Amy]

Right, Right, Right.

[Bobby Bones]

They say bad. According to this research, Such conflicting information. According to the study of more than 400, 000American adults, light drinkers, regardless of age, are 20 more likely to suffer a premature death.

[Amy]

Oh, my.

[Bobby Bones]

Everybody has a good morning. Okay. There we go.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Lovely bones.

[Bobby Bones]

Saw Savannah Guthrie had posted a new video yesterday. I guess today's Tuesday, huh? Yesterday was a holiday. So Sunday. Oh, would you play that, Ray, to.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Whoever has her or knows where she is?

[Amy]

It's never too late, and you're not lost.

[Bobby Bones]

Or alone. And then I saw one of the officials from that town say it could be weeks or month until they find months or years. Was that what it was?

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Not months or weeks. So there are other theories. And again, I say theories. These are just floating around that she could have been taken to Mexico. Ain't gonna find her in Mexico. They're not gonna knock on a door and go, can we see your basement? And then go into that basement and find her down in the basement. So that's a theory. I did see where law said it's nobody in her family. We now clear everybody in her family, which if that's true, that poor son in law.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, major apologies.

[Bobby Bones]

And not from the face. The. The lady who was Ashley Banfield, I think was her name, who was like, I know people in government and law enforcement, and they're saying it's the.

[Amy]

And maybe she does. And maybe at that moment, he was the prime suspect.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you be prime if they really have nothing on you, though?

[Amy]

True.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, you might be the one. We're really considering him to be the guy. And we don't have anything that says it could be him more than anyone else. But based on statistics over the last 50 years of solving crimes. And his beard, to be honest, kind of a weird beard.

[Amy]

So did you see? I have not read Savannah Guthrie's book at all. But there's a chapter in her book where she talks about how they played this kidnapping game as children. It was called mock kidnapping. And it was her sister, her cousin, and her. And they would. It was something they did regularly. And her mom would play along. They would go from, like, Tucson to Phoenix and act like they were kidnapped.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not gonna judge that.

[Amy]

I'm not judging it.

[Bobby Bones]

We played a lot of dumbbeard my whole life. I played where's my dad? Oh, I couldn't find him.

[Amy]

I know, but you didn't really. I'm just saying that it's. I'm just saying it's.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm still looking. Yes, but. Okay, so that just sounds like a crazy coincidence. Yeah.

[Amy]

Crazy coincidence. That's one way to put it.

[Bobby Bones]

It is. Because we also played Bang bang shoot em up and you'd kill your friends.

[Eddie]

That's true too.

[Amy]

Right?

[Lunchbox]

Never played that one, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, you could. Everybody has fake guns. Everybody had faith.

[Lunchbox]

We didn't call it Bang bang shoot em up though.

[Bobby Bones]

What'd you call it?

[Amy]

Yeah, I don't even know what that is.

[Lunchbox]

Banks and robbers. I remember that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's the same thing. You didn't go robbing banks when you got older.

[Amy]

I know, but. Right. I'm not saying there's any connection to it at all. It's just interesting. People started. They're like, wait a second. I was just reading Savannah's book, and there's a whole chapter about a kidnapping game they used to play. So they were the person who's still looking for anything. Yeah, they are. They are. They're like, where's the cousin?

[Eddie]

Where. Okay. Do we find it crazy about the glove? Like, I mean, just. I find this so weird that the glove is a mile and a half away, and all of a sudden we find the person's just like, you know what? Now I'm a mile and halfway, I'll just toss the glove out and they find it. Like, you know, it's like a week later. It just feels so weird, like, staged.

[Lunchbox]

What do you think?

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like if they were going to find something a mile away, it'd be a week later, first of all, because if it were an inch away, they'd find it that day. So I can understand it being that long until they find it. And again, they said it matched what they thought was the glove of the person that was wearing all of the backpack and the clothes. Here's what I think now. They don't know crap. I felt like I was wrong for a long time because I said, I think it's probably just a robbery, and they just took her and the was discovered. I'm starting to lean more back on my original thought that I thought I was very wrong about. That probably could be the case.

[Lunchbox]

And what did Savannah say at the end of her video? You're not alone. What does that mean?

[Bobby Bones]

You're watching this with somebody right now.

[Amy]

And no, I think, like.

[Lunchbox]

Like, literally, you're not alone.

[Amy]

Maybe insinuating that someone that would kidnap someone is feeling, like, lonely.

[Lunchbox]

I didn't had no idea what that meant.

[Bobby Bones]

Or like, in her book, she wrote.

[Lunchbox]

A chapter called, you're not alone.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. I don't driving Al.

[Amy]

I do like her. I mean, she is trying to tug at their heartstrings. I just don't know that someone that's doing this has heartstrings.

[Bobby Bones]

I would also imagine the tugging of heartstrings is done strategically with verbiage that the FBI is saying, hey, you should use this because we found this to be successful in the past. Or we've studied a while back. They were talking about, well, this language matches silence of the lambs. Turns out silence of the lambs had used real FBI agents and people who had worked with kidnappers against kidnappers. And they had found that's the language you use. It connects with them the quickest. So they weren't using language from silence of the Lambs. Silence of the lambs was using language that these people suggest, the people who are begging for kidnappers to use.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

But then it just existed so long. It's theories of galore. Like, the longer it exists. Epstein did it. Chuck E. Cheese did it.

[Amy]

I know anytime it comes up, Sam.

[Bobby Bones]

Darnold did it because he had to pay too much taxes on a Super bowl winning. It's. It's something. It's just something.

[Amy]

Yeah, I. I feel like anytime it comes. Certain conversations have come up recently. I'm, like, biting my tongue because I'm like, how crazy do I want to sound right now? Because I'm not saying I even believe it. I just have been exposed to theories that, like, are wild, but also wild things are being proven true at the moment. So, like, what in world?

[Bobby Bones]

I had a moment over the past weekend that I felt for the first time in my entire life that I needed to put my phone down.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Whoa.

[Bobby Bones]

Because I feel like I'm being radicalized by, like, eight things at once. That's a lot for the first time, from everything from Savannah Guthrie. And I'm, like, digging in. Like, I know this is the theory to political stuff to sports stuff. I've just. They know what I like, and they are radicalizing me. And I'm spending way too much time completely focused on it and dedicated to it. And I'm. Whoa. I need to turn this off, and I need to get back to normal life where I touch people in the right places. Yes. And I've never felt that way. And I had a moment where I said, yeah, I've added a little Too much phone.

[Lunchbox]

Wow, that's big.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, I put it away for like an hour. I was back. Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah, but that's a lot.

[Bobby Bones]

I felt it. Yeah, I felt it.

[Amy]

Yeah. No, I agree. That's good. And that's good encouragement and a reminder to others listening that like maybe you. You need to put your phone down too for a little bit.

[Bobby Bones]

You want to know the two things that shocked the crap out of me? And you can look these up. Number one, that plant that Jeffrey Epstein had. Jeffrey Epstein had that would. If used against someone, they'd breathe it in it like remove free will and like it was one of those basically like when you go to the doctor and they put you under.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

He was like looking for those type of plants.

[Eddie]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

And he had a trapdoor. It is an ocean. Just drop people in the ocean.

[Lunchbox]

What the.

[Eddie]

Excuse me.

[Amy]

Where'd you see that part?

[Lunchbox]

Amy, don't go looking for that one.

[Amy]

No. Some stuff I haven't been looking for. But I do appreciate when anybody's saying anything, I appreciate a file number.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah. And I got this. Cause I look at that, I go find the file number or I go, hey, is this real?

[Amy]

If there's no file number, I don't believe you.

[Bobby Bones]

I'll read you this one first, based on recently released files, Jeffrey Epstein kept Angel's Trumpets plants which are highly toxic in his greenhouse. These plants contain compounds that produce a powerful drug known as. I'm going to mispronounce the drug.

[Amy]

That's okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Scopolamine, or Devil's Breath, which is known for its ability to induce a submissive zombie like state in its users.

[Lunchbox]

Yikes.

[Bobby Bones]

It is a real plant. Whoa. Now, would you mind looking up the trapdoor part? It's like Austin Powers. So yeah. I find myself. And I won't say caring about things shouldn't care about, because I do care about that. I care about when children are being abused more than anything. And secondly, I care about razorback football. We gotta do better on that too. But mostly it's way, way number one. Way number one is this. Reports regard. Let's see. Broader speculative unconfirmed reports. But let's see context of findings. While the recent Epstein files revealed many images of property, there were claims of sinister hidden features like secret underwater escape hatch. Speculation versus fact. They were trapdoor they're not using. But it was discussed among other parts of the property where there were options for people to be removed quickly.

[Eddie]

Wow. Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Other unusual structure elements such as a blue striped building initially rumored to be a temple or strange structure. Another thing, you know, the dentist chair heard about why that was in the.

[Amy]

Oh, well, he would do a lot of work on their teeth. But why?

[Bobby Bones]

To remove the teeth.

[Amy]

Oh, that's why. Oh, my God. You sick little.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what I'm saying.

[Amy]

I have words in my head right now. I can't say.

[Lunchbox]

Don't. Cause we know what you're trying to say.

[Bobby Bones]

Go to FCC jail.

[Eddie]

What?

[Amy]

I need to put my phone down. I'm not even holding my phone right now.

[Bobby Bones]

But I'm like, it's not even that I shouldn't feel this way. I just don't want to feel this way all the time. I just need to have capacity for it.

[Amy]

Right. And I. I don't think we are meant to take in all of this at once. And it's a lot. And the crazy part is there's 3 million pages released so far. Apparently there's 6 million total. They're not going to release the rest yesterday.

[Bobby Bones]

We're done.

[Amy]

Yeah, we're done. So let that sit in, people.

[Bobby Bones]

Those are the bad ones.

[Lunchbox]

These aren't the bad ones.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, they're not releasing.

[Eddie]

No, they're protecting those. Whoever's in the last 3 million.

[Amy]

And so, you know, pay attention to that. Why? Why wouldn't they want us to have the other 3 million?

[Bobby Bones]

You want another story? That kind of irritated me.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So mostly it's not this story, it's how it was reacted to. So we talked about last week, how James Van Der Beek passed away. Battle with cancer. A lot of people were donating to his GoFundMe because he had what, six kids and a wife.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And so then the story came out that he had lived on a $4.8 million ranch in Texas. And people were like, why are we donating to somebody with a five million dollar ranch? So he didn't own it, they were renting it. And all of a lot of his friends jumped in to help him pay the down payment of that so his family had a place to live. And then they started to go through his money and he's in heavy tax debt because he was making no residuals off Dawson's Creek. So what happened was everyone turned it into the mob of here's a rich guy and we're giving all this money. Upon further investigation, here's a guy that had no money and was auctioning off all of his memorabilia to try to have some money to pay the rent on his property so his kids and his family could live there. And so they could pay for his cancer treatments. So he had no money, and he still. He still owes money. Like taxes. Mm. And so the Internet just went after him and everybody that was donating. So that was kind of annoying. By the Internet.

[Amy]

It is.

[Bobby Bones]

It's like, don't pocket watch people.

[Amy]

There's plenty of other things get fired up about right now. This is not.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, we just got fired up about one of them.

[Amy]

Right. This is not one of them.

[Bobby Bones]

But they do. The Internet loves to just get mad at folks, of course, and start complete revolutions against people, so. But they raised 2.5 million through a GoFundMe, which, by the way, the GoFundMe wasn't saying anything other than, if you want to help, you can help. He has six kids. They weren't lying about anything, and they weren't forcing people to give money. So. Yeah, that sucks. Internet sucks.

[Lunchbox]

When you die, do your taxes go away? Somebody else have to pay? No.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know if it's your wife that then has to pay them, because it may be a. If you're married, it's probably both of your taxes.

[Lunchbox]

Yikes.

[Eddie]

Right?

[Lunchbox]

Stuff. I would think so. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Because they're. I mean, our taxes are my family's. Me and my wife's taxes.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. I've been accused of being a tax expert. I'm not.

[Amy]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Go ahead.

[Amy]

Nothing. I'm just like. Cuz. I mean, people will go to jail over this tax stuff, but.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, not a single person's not in jail. No.

[Amy]

But in other countries, charges are being placed.

[Bobby Bones]

They're arresting people.

[Amy]

So us take note.

[Bobby Bones]

We don't take notes.

[Amy]

Other countries are doing things. But, yeah, thinking about tax broader. People that. Like this one woman, I saw her, she's a lawyer, actually, and her husband worked for Amazon, and I guess he violated part of his Amazon contract or something at one point. Like, Jeff Bezos went after them. I don't know. His role at Amazon, I think it was probably pretty high up, but they were fighting it because they didn't. But the FBI, like, raided their house. They've got four kids, and it was like, insane. Like, the torment they were put through over this contract violation.

[Bobby Bones]

And FBI still has work to do.

[Amy]

I know. What. I know, but it's like the treatment her family has gotten versus some of these billionaires who touch children. It's like, what? How does this even make sense?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. They can be mutually exclusive, though, and I have to remind myself that as well.

[Amy]

Fine. Treat them the same at least.

[Bobby Bones]

So Let him free.

[Amy]

No, because she. Her husband's not free.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what I'm saying. Just let everybody free. If we're doing all the same, everybody's free.

[Amy]

Sorry, same the other way. Same the other way.

[Bobby Bones]

You guys can hit us up if you want. We'd love to hear from you. 877 77. Bobby. We will, in the next segment, get to Lunchbox almost dying. Look at me. Much better.

[Lunchbox]

I mean, I don't know how, but he's better.

[Bobby Bones]

Wait, I don't know what happened to him.

[Amy]

Well, all I know is I walked in here this morning, and he's lysoling everything.

[Lunchbox]

And I was like, why are you Lysoling everything? Lysol your face. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Open your mouth. Okay, back in a second. So at the end of last week, Lunchbox went home sick, and we heard you had strep throat. And then we saw a picture, and it looked like you had strep face and swollen face and, I don't know, Ebola. I don't know what you had. But I didn't look like strep throat?

[Eddie]

No, man. They swabbed my throat. It was strep throat.

[Bobby Bones]

But were there other things?

[Eddie]

Well, I don't know. All of a sudden, my face swelled up. My eyes, I could barely open them. My tongue was so fat, my lips felt like. You know those girls on Real Housewives? Like, where they're just real puffy? And so Friday night, every 30 minutes, I'd wake up because I couldn't, like, breathe. So I went back to the doctor on Saturday, and I went in there, and doctor comes in. So let me take a look. And she couldn't even see down my throat because there was so much swelling. And she walked out of the room, and she goes, renee, Renee, I need 10 milligrams and room four, stat.

[Bobby Bones]

And they use the shockers on them for no reason.

[Eddie]

Clear. Let me tell you, when they say stat, that is not something you want to hear at the doctor's office.

[Bobby Bones]

You're sure they said stat? Because you lie about words. I think they probably said, hey, can we get. Get this in a hurry? They said the word stat.

[Amy]

But stat's way faster than in a hurry.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but people in the. In the minute clinic don't yell stat.

[Eddie]

Nope. Guys, she said it three times. She said, where is Renee? I need 10 milligrams and room four, stat. And in my head, I'm like, I'm room four.

[Lunchbox]

That's you.

[Eddie]

And then Renee, I guess, came around the course. She's like, hey, I need 10 milligrams, room four, stat. Three times.

[Bobby Bones]

We've only heard it twice.

[Eddie]

No, no, that was. That was the third.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Eddie]

Because when she walked out of the room, she said. And then she said, where's Renee?

[Bobby Bones]

Classic Renee.

[Lunchbox]

Where was she?

[Bobby Bones]

Half step behind, always.

[Eddie]

I don't know. So Renee came in the room and she says, roll over on your side, you know, hip in the air, kind of pull down your pants.

[Lunchbox]

Oh.

[Eddie]

And she goes, you ever had a shot before like this? I was like.

[Bobby Bones]

Like this.

[Eddie]

I. I don't know what she was talking about. I would listen. I didn't care what kind of shot it was at that point. I didn't feel good. I was miserable. And I couldn't talk, couldn't swallow. I get hurt to swallow saliva. Like, it was miserable.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a sore throat. Yeah. It's even a sore throat sometimes.

[Eddie]

No, no, no, no, guys. Like, it was.

[Bobby Bones]

We believe you that it was strep throat.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

It just looked like so much more.

[Eddie]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

It looked like you ordered all the appetizers and sides to go with it.

[Eddie]

Correct.

[Lunchbox]

Because your eyes were glued.

[Bobby Bones]

Your eyes were so swollen shut that. I've had strep throat a couple times in my life. And. And by the way, it sucks. It's the worst.

[Eddie]

It is the worst.

[Bobby Bones]

But my eyes were fine.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You think you had yeast infection on your face, Your eyes.

[Stephen Wilson Jr.]

Oh, my gosh.

[Eddie]

No. She. So then the doctor's like, I think you're allergic to amoxicillin. And so she changed my prescription to a different medicine, gave me the. I got the shot stat in the left hip, and then they gave me some other antibiotics, and then I had to go back on Sunday because the swelling still wasn't going down. And they gave me oral steroids, and that's where we're at. But she thinks it was an allergic reaction to amoxicillin. But if I look at my original picture from the doctor's office that I took, my eyes were already starting to puff.

[Bobby Bones]

So that was.

[Amy]

So before you were given.

[Bobby Bones]

That was pre moxicillin.

[Eddie]

That was preamoxicillin.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you Tell me. I don't know what amoxicillin is.

[Lunchbox]

It's just antibiotic.

[Eddie]

It's an antibiotic.

[Lunchbox]

Okay. Did you tell them about your calis? Like, could it be the cialis?

[Bobby Bones]

Everything was getting.

[Eddie]

I couldn't tell puffing up. Someone did. Someone online said, looks like your cialis went to your eyes, but, I mean, possibly. It was pretty funny. I laughed at it.

[Amy]

Did it last for four hours.

[Bobby Bones]

And did you call a doctor if it lasted for over four hours?

[Eddie]

No, I didn't even. No. And I probably. And people online were like, you should go to the er. And I'm telling you, I. Friday night was so hard to sleep. Just cause I'm kind of choke on my tongue. And I guess I realize that now. I didn't realize I was choking on my tongue at that time, but it was just like I'd wake up and be like, oh, it's only been 30 minutes. Oh gosh. And it took forever for that night to go by.

[Bobby Bones]

So if you were already swelling, why do they think you were allergic to something that they gave you when you were already swelling Pre.

[Eddie]

I'm not sure.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you think it has anything to do theory work in theory. With your swollen testicle raising up, like rising? Not that I know it's on its way out.

[Eddie]

Can I tell you something, though? My testicle didn't hurt all weekend.

[Amy]

Well, yeah, because it was distracted by other man.

[Eddie]

Maybe that's what it was.

[Bobby Bones]

Like your hand hurts, someone punches you in the shoulder, you forget about your.

[Eddie]

Hand for a second. That may be true, but it was just so crazy. I have never been that, like, swollen ever.

[Bobby Bones]

Were your kids sick?

[Eddie]

My middle child had strep. Hold on.

[Bobby Bones]

But I don't know how I got.

[Eddie]

No, no, no. I never said I didn't know how I got.

[Lunchbox]

You did say, however, I don't get strep.

[Amy]

Wait, let him finish. Because when did his child have strep?

[Eddie]

At the beginning of last week.

[Amy]

And you just came to work and.

[Bobby Bones]

You'Re here now and we're always like, dude, you're bringing every illness into the room.

[Eddie]

Hold on, hold on. Stop, stop. I have not had strep throat in probably four years. Like when they were young. No, no, when they were young, I did get it because I'd been re exposed to it. But this must have been some strong variant that just broke through some dams. Because I'm going to tell you what, it rocked my world.

[Amy]

Maybe because your immune system's already busy fighting your testicle issue that like, that's why it was able to break yeast infection.

[Bobby Bones]

They're probably still tired from the yeast fight.

[Eddie]

I don't know.

[Lunchbox]

Soldiers.

[Eddie]

I know where. I understand where I got it.

[Bobby Bones]

Attrition soldiers. From the yeast infection he had in his mouth. Yeah.

[Amy]

So like, did you eat anything else? Like before you had the medication? Like before you started to swell up? Like, yeah, you have the strep throat. But like, did you eat Anything. Because, like, what was happening to your eyes? Like, if my son has shrimp, like, or a shellfish, his eyes would look like lunchboxes.

[Lunchbox]

Allergic reaction.

[Amy]

Yes. So it's like, okay, before the Moxicillin, did you have.

[Eddie]

I had. No, I couldn't eat. Like, I. I don't.

[Amy]

But Friday, like, when we were here at work, did you. You have snacks all the time?

[Eddie]

Yeah, but my normal snack. No normal snacks. Normal.

[Lunchbox]

No new nuts?

[Eddie]

No, no new nuts.

[Bobby Bones]

Any bread high in yeast?

[Eddie]

No. No bread and yeast.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Look, we're happy you're better.

[Eddie]

Oh, man. Let me tell you, it feels good to be a human. It feels great.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a great feeling when you've been sick for a long time and the first time you feel pretty good, you're like, this is the greatest ever felt in my life.

[Eddie]

And trying to reply to, like, text messages or what? I couldn't read them.

[Lunchbox]

Because your eyes were swollen?

[Eddie]

Yes. Like, I was, like, typing things. I'd type it and then I looked at a couple days later. I'm like, man, I misspelled a lot of those words.

[Lunchbox]

Guys, do you think four days is enough? Like, he's here talking, and every time he yells, I see spit come out of his mouth, and I'm like, are we okay?

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like we should put him in a dog cone, like, whenever Stanley has surgery to keep him from, like, licking his paw. That's been surgically repaired. We need to put you in a cone so it only goes forward.

[Eddie]

No, no, no. I have so many medicines in my body, guys. I am like a. This is the healthiest I've ever been.

[Bobby Bones]

Every time you turn and look at them, they back away. Morgan and Eddie, back away.

[Eddie]

I don't understand why.

[Bobby Bones]

Because you spit when you talk as well.

[Eddie]

I've got antibiotics. I've got steroids. I've got something in my hip stat.

[Bobby Bones]

And.

[Lunchbox]

And your tongue still sounds a little fat.

[Eddie]

Like, it might be okay. It might be.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm happy that you're better.

[Eddie]

Oh, thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

I'd like to lead with that. You're far away, but, yeah, there's a reason my desk is across the room.

[Eddie]

But, man, I looked rough.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Dude, we thought you were dying. We all kind of shared the video. Did you see this? Like, this is not good.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

And I mean, maybe I should have gone to the er, but, I mean, people online kept going, you need to go to the ER and get drip antibiotics.

[Amy]

I was like, wait. So hold on. I don't know if we got clarity on this. Maybe we did, but when you were at the doctor about all of this, did you disclose to them your other issues?

[Eddie]

No, there was no time.

[Amy]

Okay, but. No, that's not. This is the problem. He's not sting.

[Eddie]

Guys, I could barely talk.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but you could still point with your finger down to your swollen testicles. Just point, pull it out and point.

[Amy]

Because what if it's related?

[Eddie]

There was no relation to that.

[Lunchbox]

You don't know that.

[Bobby Bones]

He runs in with his pants down.

[Lunchbox]

They're like, stack, get him out of here. Call the cops.

[Bobby Bones]

Swollen eye, swollen testicle, he's got Ebola.

[Amy]

Because there's no relation to the swollen eye to the strep throat.

[Eddie]

Oh, no, there is.

[Lunchbox]

No, there isn't.

[Amy]

It doesn't seem like it.

[Bobby Bones]

You had that before they gave you the amoxicillin.

[Eddie]

That's what I'm saying. So it was part of whatever the strep throat virus was. It was causing. Was a. It was a major strain.

[Bobby Bones]

Possible he has a virus that's just swelling up random parts of his body. Testicle, eyes, tongue. I mean, then he also got strep from his kid. It's two different things.

[Eddie]

But a lot of women were jealous of my lips. I will say that. I got a lot of comments saying, oh, I'm gonna show that to my lip lady.

[Amy]

No, they didn't.

[Eddie]

Yeah, they did. I swear, even Ray's wife said it.

[Amy]

I think she was trying to be, like, supportive and helpful. Like, your lips look great.

[Bobby Bones]

I can't believe you're back today.

[Lunchbox]

Me either. Why are you back?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, no, no, I mean, I can't believe you're back and you look normal.

[Lunchbox]

I will give him that. His recovery time is excellent.

[Bobby Bones]

Like.

[Lunchbox]

Like this was four days ago, guys. He was gonna explode. And all of a sudden he comes in. I'm the best shape of my life I've ever been.

[Amy]

Do you have any yeast blisters or.

[Bobby Bones]

This story comes to us from Largo, Florida. A man went out to the bar, was sitting there having drinks at the bar, talking to the bartender. Ran up a 65 tab when the bartender turned around to serve someone another drink. Guy ran out of the bar, went home, went to sleep. Next day, he's like, man, my phone charger. I left at the bar. Gotta go get it. So he walked back to the bar, said, hey, guys, you have my phone charger back there? I was just. I left it here last night. And they called the cops and arrested.

[Bobby Bones]

Him because he basically dined and dash. What was it? Was it a drinking dash? Yeah, I guess I saw a tick tock where a woman was leaving a restaurant after she didn't pay for the meal. And so they went out with the phone and they're like, hey, you didn't pay for your meal. Meal. She was like, it wasn't good.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

They were like, well, that's not a reason that you can leave. She was like, it wasn't good and it was way overpriced. So I chose not to pay. Wow, that's not a thing.

[Amy]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

There's kind of a contract that you go into when you order food the minute that first bite hits your mouth, as long as there's no hair or glass in it or pee. And we could go through all the things that can't be in it, but I think you have to pay for the food. But she was like, no, I didn't do anything wrong. I didn't like it and it was overpriced.

[Amy]

Interesting. I wonder if she's ever done that before and it's worked for her and.

[Bobby Bones]

What people will do and say now. There you go. All right, Lunchbox.

Imagine never buying gas again. EVs are easy to charge as your phone and perfect for everyday life. Now, most Americans only drive about 40 miles a day, and most EVs go 200 to 400 miles on a full charge. That's plenty. And with fewer parts, that means fewer repairs and fewer surprises at the mechanic. Anyone who has made the switch says the same thing. Once you go electric, you don't look back. The way forward is electric.

We all seem to be in a rush these days, from work to driving our kids around. But when you're behind the wheel, please do not speed. A few minutes saved by going faster is never worth the risk. So follow the speed limit, enjoy the drive, maybe bring some snacks for the kids, and know that along the way, you're getting quality time with your family.
