This is the Bobby Bone Show. Welcome to Tuesday's show. Morning, studio. Morning. All right, here we go. Some voicemails. This is Arlen from Williamsburg, Virginia. I'm an old man and I get confused. Correct me if I'm wrong. Has Amy given her book report on the Fourth Wing yet? I think that that was something on the wheel. So if she hasn't done that, maybe, like she could get another shot and maybe have to read all three of the books that have been published in that series. I don't know. Just my opinion. Don't take this the wrong way, Arlen. You do not sound like an old man.
Bobby Bones
He doesn't?
Morgan
No.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but Amy has read and has talked about Fourth Wing.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
And reviewed it. And you gave it a pretty good review.
Morgan
Yeah, I gave it a, like, I think when I was sort of almost done with it, I was like, I'm in. I'm probably going to read Black Onyx or whatever the next one is. And then by the time I was finished with it, I was like, I think I'm good. I think I have enough dragon fantasy or Romantasy or whatever this genre is, like, I'm good, just not my thing.
Lunchbox
And she did review it and there's a secondary review right there. So thank you for calling. Yeah. Rachel, hit it.
Morgan
Morning, studio.
Eddie
As we get into summer and Eddie.
Morgan
Starts telling stories about his grand old.
Lunchbox
Lifeguard days, I just Want to remind.
Eddie
Everyone that one of his saves is.
Lunchbox
Because he pushed a woman in the pool and then had to save her. Bye.
Bobby Bones
Did I say that pushed her?
Lunchbox
I mean, like, this is weird.
Morgan
She was sitting on the ledge and you kind of.
Bobby Bones
Okay, good. I didn't know this was, like, an insider because, yeah, I did push her. I did push her in the pool.
Lunchbox
Wait, does it count as a save if you also created the save situation? Sure. You're like an arsonist who's a firefighter.
Bobby Bones
True.
Morgan
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I still had to save her, though. I didn't know she couldn't swim, and she was sitting on the side of the pool, and I thought it would be funny just to push her in because she was like. She had a shirt on and everything. And then she was like, I can't swim. And so I jumped in and saved her.
Lunchbox
But does that count as a save if you also almost had to drown?
Bobby Bones
Did you hear what I said? I jumped in and saved her.
Lunchbox
No, no, no, I know, but you.
Morgan
I mean, yes, it counts as a save because technically he could have just let her flail about.
Lunchbox
No, that's called murder. No, if you push her in and she dies, you just killed her. Okay, thank you for that. All right, next one. I was just listening to the podcast and listening to the, like, stage name game. Do you think that when Tim and Faith are at home, they call each other Audrey and Sam? Or do they call each other Tim and Faith? Because that'd be really hard to go back and forth. But it'd also be kind of weird.
Morgan
To call them by their stage name.
Lunchbox
Hmm.
Raymundo
What do you guys think?
Bobby Bones
Love the show.
Lunchbox
Good question. Interesting question. What I would say is. So Tim, though, I think, was his middle name, right?
Raymundo
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Wasn't it Timothy? So a lot of people are called in real life by their middle name. I think Tim is Tim, so that I'm pretty sure of. And I also think Faith is Faith. I think. I think that's just their going names.
Bobby Bones
It's a good question.
Lunchbox
It is a weird question. Like, my wife does not go by. Okay, Faith's their middle name. So it's not like they're made up names, made up stage names. Mine's totally made up. My last name is not Bones. My wife does not go by Bones in any way whatsoever. She would rather cut off a finger than go be Kaitlin Bones. Because she's like, that's the elevated version of you. That's not the real you. And so she doesn't refer to me, call me Bobby Bones. Anything like that, but that's a made up name. Faith is her middle name. Tim is his middle name. They probably go by that in real life because it's already part of the real name. Now I don't know if Jelly Roll's wife calls him Jelly Roll at home. That's different because that's just a straight nickname.
Bobby Bones
His name is Jason probably.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Jason Deford, right? Yeah. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So maybe they have like little fun names too. Like.
Lunchbox
Well, and her name's Bunny, but I don't know if that's her real name.
Bobby Bones
No, no, I mean Tim and Faith.
Lunchbox
Oh, no, I think that. Yeah, they may have like. Yeah, like babe, stuff like that. Yeah, I don't think he calls her Bunny. Xo Jelly Roll at home.
Morgan
Like, Lunchbox's wife doesn't call him Lunchbox, right?
Lunchbox
Fake name.
Raymundo
Yeah, yeah.
Lunchbox
She calls him what, Big Papa Daddy? That's a good question though, Sadie. I haven't thought about that. But I would say because it's their real name, they call each other that on the fake. Fake names they probably don't like. I would assume Jelly Roll's wife doesn't call him Jelly at home. Probably calls him Jason, right?
Bobby Bones
I think so.
Morgan
Or Jay.
Lunchbox
Sure. Or Honey. Or Big Papa. Okay, one more. Go ahead. I just wanted some advice. I'm trying to find a job.
Morgan
I'm having trouble. I've applied to like 40 places and I keep getting turned down. And I'm pretty sure it's because I haven't had like a real job in nine years.
Lunchbox
I have five kids all 11 and under, and so once that second one came along, I just. Daycare is expensive, so I keep being.
Morgan
Turned on for these jobs. However, I do have experience in what I'm applying for.
Lunchbox
It's just from a long time ago.
Morgan
So I was just seeing if you had any advice on how to get.
Lunchbox
Someone to take a chance on me. Amy, you want to go first?
Morgan
Gosh, 40, that is a lot. I mean, I think you're just showing up authentically as you. I'm not sure what's going on in the interview process or why they're not giving you a chance. Like, if you have the skills just because you been out of the game for nine years, like, show them what you can do. Can you just show up and be like, gosh darn it, I can do this and I can raise five kids under 11.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's crazy.
Morgan
Who can do that? Not a lot of people. I probably go crazy and she still sounds sane.
Lunchbox
Something you're doing in the interview process is bad.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Because it's not about. It's so hard to find competent people. As somebody who has to hire people all the time for stuff, it's so hard to just hire and find competent people. So I'm not sure what you're applying for. I would reevaluate what you're doing in the interviews because I don't think it's just because you haven't done it in so long. I don't even know that I would bring up five kids under 11 because that would feel like you'd never be available. And it's unfair.
Morgan
It's unfair.
Lunchbox
It's unfair. But that doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
Morgan
Okay, true.
Lunchbox
So there's something in your process. If you've interviewed that many places, they haven't hired you. They must not think you're competent for whatever reason. And it's not because you haven't done it in a long time.
Morgan
Like, are we on time?
Lunchbox
So, yes, you need to reevaluate your approach. It doesn't matter if you haven't done it in 20 years, 10 years, 8 years. If you go in and show them I have a good work ethic, I want to learn, I do learn, and I have a good attitude. They're probably gonna hire. Somebody's gonna hire you just because they need a warm body that will show up on time. Reevaluate your process. Cause it's not about you not having done it in a long time.
Morgan
So something that worked for one of my friends is she showed up to an agency. Like, no one wanted to hire her. She was a book editor, and no one would hire her. So she showed up one day and was, like, acting like she was in her 20s and she's really in her 40s, and she got the job.
Lunchbox
Like I said, not fair.
Morgan
It's a TV show called Younger.
Eddie
I was like, I know that plot.
Lunchbox
Again, not fair.
Bobby Bones
She just lied to us.
Morgan
But that show is so good. But maybe you can pull some inspo from that show.
Lunchbox
I don't know that I would, but it is a different approach.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Thank you for calling. Reevaluate how and what you're doing in these interviews. There are certain things you don't want to say, even if it's true, because they will unfairly be held against you. Make sure you're dressing properly. Make sure that you're smiling. You know there that there are two very important distances whenever you interview. The distances are from, like, one edge of your smile to the other. And Your shoulders to your ears. And because anybody that goes in with their shoulders up, like hunched over, that doesn't look good. It's not. It's not an approachable person. So don't be so smiley like the freaking joker. But you need to be somebody that's pleasant and then also pull your shoulders down and look confident because that shoulders to ears distance, man, you see somebody all shoulders all up in their ears, that's just not somebody you want to be around, even subconsciously.
Morgan
And to reiterate something you say all the time, don't you think, like a letter, a follow up, like a handwritten note?
Lunchbox
Yeah, but I mean, she's done 40. I don't know. Gonna get her the job, reevaluate. And we can say this because we don't know you, so we can be as straightforward as possible. You're not doing something right, but you can fix it. You just need to figure out what that is. All right, there you go. Thank you for the voicemails. You can always leave us a voicemail. 87777, Bobby. That's our number. 87777, Bobby. Same as when we're live in the studio, but you can leave us a voicemail anytime. These are the most mysterious deaths in pop culture. At the top five. Amy, who comes to mind whenever I say mysterious death of somebody famous?
Morgan
Michael Jackson.
Lunchbox
Oh, I didn't make my list because I didn't feel like that was very mysterious. I think he just died of, like, overdose because he was trying to go to sleep every night.
Morgan
Well, yeah, it's feels mysterious to me.
Bobby Bones
Like they said.
Morgan
I remember being confused by it. Okay, well, you're not.
Lunchbox
No, you're not. Wrong again. An overdose. Whitney Houston and she had had a history of drug problems.
Morgan
Yeah, well, that sort of stuff is mysterious to me.
Lunchbox
Fair enough. Number five. Elvis Presley, 1977, died of a heart attack possibly linked to prescription drug use. And what's mysterious is the fact that he has supposedly faked his death for so long. So he hasn't.
Bobby Bones
He's probably dead, living in Arkansas. Remember, he's a preacher.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but remember, they don't let anybody go upstairs whenever you go and tour Graceland. Correct.
Bobby Bones
It's roped off.
Lunchbox
And probably just because the family wants to keep something sacred. But that has allowed more conspiracy theory. The fact, too, that Elvis Aaron Presley is misspelled on his grave. There are all these weird things. So the death, to me isn't weird because of the heart attack or the possible drug use. It's because of what has happened since the heart attack or the drug use, where people have seen him in all these places or there are all these theories. Is he dead? Yeah, he's dead. But that. That's pretty mysterious. The fact that it's still today is alive. That he could possibly be alive. You see how I'm going here. So it's not just Michael Jackson pumping some stuff in him. Sure.
Morgan
Gotcha.
Lunchbox
Although, Amy, if I were to fight and. And be your advocate here, there is a video of an ambulance basically pulling out of Michael Jackson after they said he was dead and him like, sneaking in the back from the gate. So there is that.
Bobby Bones
It's a little blurry, though.
Lunchbox
Number four, Kurt Cobain, who was the lead singer of Nirvana. He offed himself. But the real mysterious.
Morgan
Whoa, that sounds.
Bobby Bones
He did.
Lunchbox
Yeah. I didn't want to say what he did or how he did it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's what he.
Morgan
Oh, we don't.
Lunchbox
No, I'm not gonna say. Himself with a shotgun in the head.
Bobby Bones
Now you just.
Morgan
Well, now you just did.
Lunchbox
Well, Amy made me. She's over there going, oh, what is it? What is it?
Morgan
I thought we could say, like, you know, death by suicide.
Lunchbox
I think that's how they say it. I chose not to. I said something I felt was softer often.
Bobby Bones
Well, that's better.
Lunchbox
That's softer than the other thing.
Morgan
No, no, it's. No. Death by suicide, I think, is softer, more technical.
Lunchbox
Yeah, no, often so.
Morgan
I'm so technical.
Lunchbox
So. April 5, 1994. La, la, la. All that happens. He was 27 years old. But the reason that it's so mysterious and even so scrutinized is that some people think he was killed also. Some people what have read have seen the note and they're like, this is not him. Some people think that there are people that were in his life that actually convinced him to do so. Very mysterious.
Bobby Bones
Do they think he's dead?
Lunchbox
Most people, yes. Okay, everybody. I think things. Okay, yeah, there's. Him and Elvis are hanging out at some bar in Wisconsin making music. Yeah. Number three is Natalie Wood in 1981. And that the boat. It is the boat. And that's why it's not if she's still alive or not. It's who. What happened? How'd she drown?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
So 1981. The official causes, drowning. The coroner ruled the cause of her death to be accidental drowning and hypothermia. According to the corner, Natalie Wood had been drinking and she may have slept while trying to reboard the boat. The Hollywood star, and she was a Big Hollywood star in 81. There was no social media, but she. And we all. I mean, you were. Eddie, it was. Eddie was alive.
Bobby Bones
I didn't know Natalie Wood, you guys. I didn't watch her movies, okay?
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah, my bad. They were on a yacht and she was on with her husband, Robert Wagner. Remember? What, I know him now. I don't know him, but I know who he is now.
Bobby Bones
I know the name. What, what is he, a director or something?
Lunchbox
No, he's an actor. Oh, he is now. He's just a really old. If he's still alive. He's a really old, good looking guy. He's one of those guys. And also, Christopher Walken was on the boat. Oh, wow. Her death was first rolled an accident, but later changed to drowning and other undetermined factors. Wagner has long been suspected by the public as pushing her off the boat. Not me. I don't suspect anybody of anything. I wasn't around, you see him and.
Bobby Bones
Robert Wagner is dead now.
Lunchbox
He is? Yeah, but you see, does he. You recognize him at all?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Lunchbox
Okay. Number two, Bruce Lee. The top five mysterious deaths of celebrities. Bruce Lee, 1973. Died from brain swelling, possibly due to an allergic reaction. Bruce Lee's sudden death shocked the world. Some speculate foul play, secret poisoning. Some people think it's a family curse after a son died.
Bobby Bones
But that was crazy.
Lunchbox
That was crazy. There's also very vague and conflicting medical explanations. So what happened with Bruce Lee? Bruce Lee, for those that don't know, was a fighter, I guess. Was it Kung Fu? Always. I think it's Kung Fu because they would just always call them Kung fu movies. Martial arts better, but they would be like Kung Fu movies, right? Yeah. Bruce Lee went to take a nap after complaining of a headache and never woke up. An ambulance was called. He was found unconscious, but he was pronounced dead at the hospital. There was cerebral oedemia that resulted in a brain weight of very much a heavier brain than what it should have been. And so 2022, they kept some of his and they retested it and then turned it. He drank too much water.
Bobby Bones
What?
Lunchbox
Kidney specialists in Spain conducted the research and said his brain swelling may have been caused by his kidney's inability to excrete excess water. So all that's weird.
Bobby Bones
It is weird.
Lunchbox
Number one, Marilyn Monroe. She died from possible barbiturate overdose. Now there's some mysterious factors in this. August 4, 1962, at the age of 36, Marilyn Monroe died of an offing herself of barbiturates at her Los Angeles home.
Bobby Bones
That's a good way of putting it.
Lunchbox
Her death was ruled a probable off herself.
Bobby Bones
That's what they wrote down.
Lunchbox
Monroe's death sparked decades of speculation involving the Kennedys. Yeah, the mafia government cover ups. Some believe she was silenced due to her rumored affairs with John and Robert Kennedy. The timeline of her last hours are conflicting and there are different witness reports to say they saw different things, but.
Bobby Bones
Both Robert and John, really.
Lunchbox
That's like hooking up with Dan and Shea.
Bobby Bones
That's exactly what that is.
Lunchbox
Wow. Yeah. And so now that we know that the CIA whomever was involved in like the JFK killing, it definitely would not surprise me if the fact that she was having an affair with the President and a senator that possibly was going to be president and she knew too much, bro. Back in like the 60s, you could kill whoever you wanted. And as long as, like nobody saw you and got a picture and they had to take a picture with that thing over their head, that quilt, and then they had to pull the string down. It's hard to get a picture of stuff.
Bobby Bones
There was a documentary that I saw, I guess like her last days where like an interviewer went to her house and interviewed her about a week before she died. And she just sounded sad. The whole documentary is about her just being sad about her life. Maybe she was sad about.
Lunchbox
Felt very lonely too. I mean, it's not like being a celebrity is awesome. That's Lunchbox. Sometimes it's hard.
Bobby Bones
Is that right, Lunchbox?
Raymundo
It's rough out there, dude. It's depressing sometimes because everybody treats you and you know, you get lonely sometimes.
Lunchbox
Sometimes you just get lonely.
Bobby Bones
That makes sense.
Lunchbox
That's my top five list. Oh, Heath Ledger I put on there. Tupac. Oh, yeah, Biggie, all those. They made my extra list, but they didn't make my top five.
Bobby Bones
Gene Hackman. That one's bizarre.
Lunchbox
That one's bizarre. Recent, but I don't think big enough to be on the. On the list. Yeah, There you go. Hey, everybody. Welcome back. Hope, everybody.
Morgan
Nothing like a little serious death talk.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Good Tuesday morning. It's the anonymous in box.
Ryan Hurd
Anonymous symbol.
Lunchbox
There's a question to be had. Hello, Bobby Bones. My sister has a four month old, I have a six month old. We're very close. She asked me to watch her baby overnight last night. She brought bottles and pump milk and informed me she'd never tried giving her a bottle, but it should be fine. And then she left a couple hours later. The baby was hungry. Not my baby, her baby. I prepared a bottle and tried feeding her the bottle. It was the first time. But no matter what, she wouldn't take it. Why are you staring at me weird?
Bobby Bones
I'm just trying to figure out. I'm trying to follow this.
Lunchbox
Are you predicting where it's going?
Bobby Bones
Let me see.
Lunchbox
The baby just kept crying. After two hours of trying to feed her a bottle and then trying to.
Bobby Bones
Oh, no, I know where it's going.
Lunchbox
And then trying to spoon feed her and her screaming, I informed my sister of what I would be doing breastfeeding her baby. Oh, I guess she didn't check her phone for several hours because I ended up feeding her baby twice before my sister responded. She was furious. She said I had no right to do that and I should have just figured something else out. So I'm wondering, am I the jerk here? She hasn't spoken to me since picking my niece up. Signed breastfeeding. Aunt Amy's not in the studio right now, so this is a weird one for all dudes.
Bobby Bones
It's really weird.
Lunchbox
But, Eddie, you go first.
Bobby Bones
I mean, where my mind went was like, baby's hungry, Baby's gotta eat.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And the only thing we got is the tea.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Right.
Bobby Bones
So, like, I think she did what she had to do.
Lunchbox
I feel it's a bit irresponsible of the parent to leave bottles. And the baby's never, ever, ever had a bottle.
Bobby Bones
Correct.
Lunchbox
Like, never once has the baby ever had a bottle. But she should be fine. I'm gonna leave her with a bottle. Like, aside from what happened secondarily, I feel like that's a bit irresponsible from the parent to do the mom again. They are sisters, so they're very close, right? Yeah. Yeah. But I do think you can't really do that. So I'm. I'm. I'm on Team Sister Babysitter. Baby's got to eat. Yeah. Lunchbox.
Raymundo
Look, boobs are boobs. Kids do not care. They're not going to be mad that it was a sister's boob. Listen, I hold the baby and sometimes it tries to get on my boob and I don't have any.
Bobby Bones
That's not true.
Lunchbox
Baby's picking hair out of its teeth.
Raymundo
They sit there and they try to get in there, like, because they're just used to that feeling. They don't know that what boob is what boob? It's not a big deal. Did your baby have a babysitter that took care of it and fed it and got it stopped crying? Get over yourself. Your boobs are not Magic. I mean, I understand you think it's this special thing between you and your.
Lunchbox
Kid, but what are you yelling at right now?
Raymundo
The one that got mad.
Lunchbox
The emailer's not the emailer, though, is not the one that's mad. So you're yelling at somebody who's never hearing this.
Raymundo
Oh, they don't listen to the show.
Lunchbox
I don't. They didn't say anything about that. No. Yeah. I just asked for an opinion. Not really to yell at anybody.
Raymundo
I got worked up because, man, I feel bad for this lady.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Morgan.
Morgan
Yeah.
Eddie
I definitely gotta get a woman in here somehow.
Lunchbox
I know. Go ahead.
Morgan
I do not think the sister should be upset with her sister over this.
Eddie
Like, she did everything possible to reach.
Morgan
Out to the sister, and if she.
Eddie
Was gonna be that upset about something happening, she should have been on her phone or more available or had stuff prepared. And to your point, she shouldn't have dropped off the baby without having ever done a bottle. That should not have happened.
Morgan
But I will say I do know that a baby and a mom and the connection is very important.
Eddie
So I could see why it would.
Morgan
Make the other sister very emotional.
Lunchbox
How about this? You're going to leave your kid with a babysitter. Be available.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Regardless of who the babysitter is and what age the kid is, even if the kid's 4 or 8, shouldn't you kind of be available where if the mom or dad's trying to call you, you answer, yeah. Or the babysitter trying to call the mom or dad. Sure, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then why. I wonder why she didn't try to call the dad to be like, yo.
Bobby Bones
Maybe he's not around. Never know, man.
Lunchbox
Maybe not. Emailer, we're with you. It was an unfortunate situation you were put in. You did the best you could. We side with the babysitter. The aunt. Yes. We sided with Ant boob.
Bobby Bones
There you go.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Aunt boob. All right, there it is. Close it up. It's time for the good news with Amy.
Bobby Bones
Tell me something good.
Morgan
Last week, Cecilia Hernandez graduated from Rollins College with a degree in chemistry, accompanied by her service dog. Now, this is the amazing part. She's had some challenges. Her dog was by her side her entire education. So the school gave the dog a little patch for its vest when it walked across the stage.
Lunchbox
That's cool. And hopefully a treat. That's pretty cool.
Morgan
So all during her research, everything. Her service dog was right by her side. So he is graduating as well.
Lunchbox
He is a little more educated than Lunchbox. Who did not get his patch. He's one in one class. Short of getting his degree. How do you feel?
Raymundo
You guys are so dumb. That dog knows nothing. Just because he went to class, he learned nothing.
Lunchbox
Okay, took offense to this. That's how you know he knows nothing.
Morgan
He didn't get a degree. Lunchbox. He just got.
Raymundo
But he just said he's more educated than me.
Bobby Bones
He graduated.
Lunchbox
He graduated, bro. He has a graduation patch you don't want.
Eddie
Oh.
Morgan
So this is also a really cute part because she was like I mentioned, majoring in chemistry. So her little service dog, he would wear like protective gear in the lab. You know, like little goggles.
Lunchbox
Now we're going a little too far.
Raymundo
Okay, now we're being ridiculous.
Lunchbox
Great story. I like it.
Morgan
I feel like it's cute.
Lunchbox
That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good.

That's a great song. Yeah, I sadly did not have that in my top 10. And I sadly am an idiot. That is a great song. Lunchbox. Best country song from what? Oh, it's from 1999. Oh, my goodness. But be sure to put next to it 1999. Yeah, that's why it wasn't on my list. Ray, anything you want to say back? Yeah, I'm just gonna need to talk to I heart because they put out this list of 2000's biggest country hits. So I'm gonna. I will actually address it and email them today. So do we put poop? Did it only go up as poop?
Morgan

Okay. Yeah. But so was the Twist by Chubby Checker on oldie stations.
Bobby Bones
So it's when it was released, right?
Lunchbox
Yep.

Lunchbox
Surely you picked at least three.
Morgan
Yeah, yeah, I have more. But now I struggle with what should be number one.
Lunchbox
Well, you get two in a row because you're the end of the line. And it starts with you again.
Morgan
All right. That helps me bless the broken road, cuz.
Lunchbox

Morgan
Well, there's two really good ones that I want to choose.
Raymundo
Let me see which one. You know, I'm already done. Let me see which ones you're looking at.
Lunchbox
See if I.1 and 3.
Morgan
And they're both so good.
Raymundo
Oh, man. I had. Yeah, I have them, but I don't.
Lunchbox
Go with what he says.
Eddie
He did win last round, though.
Morgan
Oh, man. Okay. I think you're gonna choose one of these, Bobby. And that's why I might want to take it.
Lunchbox
I have two that I'm deciding between. I'm curious if they're similar.
Eddie
I think I'm gonna go.
Lunchbox
Austin by Blake Shelton was not on my list. It's a great song, though. So I have two that I'm choosing between, and I think is one of them chicken fried? It is. And I think I'm gonna go with chicken fries. I'm gonna go with. Courtesy of the red, white, and blue.
Eddie
I'm shocked right now.
Lunchbox
Toby Keith.
Raymundo
That is a good one.
Lunchbox
Why?
Morgan
I thought he was gonna.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I'm pandering a little bit.
Raymundo
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Okay, I see that.
Lunchbox
Yeah. A little bit. America.
Bobby Bones
Sure. Red wine.
Lunchbox
Rest in peace, Toby. Yeah. More than picking my absolute favorite song, I'm pandering a little bit.
Morgan
So should I pander to the.
Lunchbox
You do it. You already have poop. You can pander all day long.
Morgan
I know. I have that. But, like, Jesus, Take the Wheel. It's not one of my favorite songs, but it was huge.
Lunchbox
I don't think that's as pandering.
Raymundo
No, that's pretty pandering.
Morgan
Is it what?
Raymundo
I mean, that's about Jesus. I would.
Eddie
Yeah, yeah.
Lunchbox
No, it is about Jesus.
Raymundo
That's pretty true.
Lunchbox
Amy. Do whatever you want.
Morgan
Whatever. I mean, why do I. I love Beautiful Mess. Diamond Rio. You hate that, don't you?
Lunchbox
You're not gonna win. So you already have poop.
Morgan
I might. If it's five o' clock somewhere.
Bobby Bones
You might win Jesus, though. Just go, Jesus.
Lunchbox
What? If you just write the word Jesus. How could people. That's that People can't vote against that, Right?
Morgan
Just write Jesus really big and then takes the wheel really tiny.
Lunchbox
What is your answer?
Morgan
Who cares?
Lunchbox
I don't know.
Morgan
What do I do, guys? What do I do?
Lunchbox
It literally doesn't matter.
Morgan
Okay.
Lunchbox
Star Spangle banner, you're down 20 points. Calling a timeout with three seconds left.
Morgan
Yeah, I'm an idiot.
Lunchbox
Nobody said that.
Morgan
I. Say it.
Lunchbox
Go ahead.
Morgan
Okay. For me, clock.
Lunchbox
Okay. Five seconds.
Morgan
Okay. What was.
Lunchbox
What.
Morgan
What was I gonna do? Beautiful mess.
Lunchbox
Okay. There you go. Thank you for yelling. Beautiful mess.
Morgan
What a beautiful mess.
Lunchbox
So I'm surprised Amy didn't pick Troubadour George Straight.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah.
Morgan
There's other George Straight songs.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but that was better. Than give it away. And I had that as another one of the bigger 2000.
Morgan
Give it away.
Lunchbox
Yeah. My favorite is whiskey lullaby, but I didn't pick that because it's my. One of my favorite songs ever.
Eddie
So that's what I had. And that's what I thought you were gonna pick.
Morgan
And that was the two that I was deciding between.
Lunchbox
Alan Jackson, where were you in the world? Stop turning was also on my list.
Morgan
Oh, yeah, I had that one.
Lunchbox
Oh, for sure, Hannah. For sure. Okay, so here's everybody's team. Go vote on the full team. Don't vote on the first song because there's a draft order. Ray has poop. You belong with me and need you now.
Raymundo
He drafted poop number one overall.
Lunchbox
Number one. It's the first time poop's been drafted number one overall.
Bobby Bones
He made history.
Lunchbox
I'll be Amy's lunchbox has chicken fried redneck woman and tequila makes her clothes fall off. Morgan has live like you were dying Red dirt road in Austin. I have It's a great day to be alive. Tim McGraw by Taylor Swift and courtesy of the red, white and blue. And Amy has bless the broken road. A second round pick. A poop and beautiful mess. Diamond Rio.
Bobby Bones
Two poops in one game.
Lunchbox
There's also first round overall. First overall pick is poop. Amazing. Okay, let's play one of these. Let's do play it.
Bobby Bones
I want to hear it.
Lunchbox
We can't find it. It's not in the system.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
They ranked the hottest instruments. Amy, if you were watching somebody play x instrument, you would think it was hot. Walk me through your top three.
Morgan
Okay. Well, the first one that comes to mind is guitar. Why that's hot, I don't know.
Lunchbox
Fair enough. If something tastes good, you really can't. You don't know why. It just tastes good.
Morgan
Yeah. And then the next one would be piano.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Morgan
It's real hot. I'm trying to decide how I feel about the horns. You know, like it's you torn on the horns. Torn on the horns. Like, I feel like if it's a horn, it's got to be a petite one. Like a cute little.
Bobby Bones
Like a flu.
Lunchbox
I don't want to. I don't want to change you. You say what you want to say. It's a kazoo. It's a kazoo.
Morgan
I mean, I guess we could go. I feel like I do need to pick something from the horn since I've got strings, keys.
Lunchbox
You're not setting up the orchestra, Beethoven. I'm just asking you what you think's. The hottest.
Morgan
Oh, I mean, I want to say saxophone, but the Bill Clinton.
Lunchbox
He's ruined it for you.
Morgan
Yes, he ruined it for me. So let me go in a cute little like trumpet thing.
Lunchbox
So of the horns, the trumpet is the hottest.
Morgan
Is that the one with like the three? Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Louis Armstrong.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Not the one that's got like the plunger on the back on the end where they. When the saints go marching in the trombone.
Morgan
Although I gotta say, honorable mention. Drums.
Lunchbox
No honorable mention. You only get three. Are you picking the drums over the trumpet or the. Yeah. Trump.
Morgan
Yeah, I think I am now. Because drums, they keep the beat, you know, like they.
Lunchbox
We do know. Yeah, we're in a band.
Morgan
I know you're in a band and obvious, but I mean I feel like.
Lunchbox
They weren't a band. Sounds cool.
Morgan
I'm tossing out the trumpet and I'm replacing it with drums. So there you go. Guitar, piano, drums. Boom.
Lunchbox
Okay, I will read to you the list at number.
Morgan
Before you do the list, what do you think is the hottest for you?
Lunchbox
Well, when I watch Eddie play the guitar, the guitar really does something. It makes me tingle in my areas.
Bobby Bones
I mean, when Amy said guitar got.
Lunchbox
A little blushy, I don't really think. I don't know, maybe I'm just too in the music world to think that any of them are that hot. Unless it's something like a. Like a. Like a classical violin that we're not around a lot because we're not around classical violin. We do see fiddle players and fiddle is violin, same thing. But there's a difference in playing Tchaikovsky on violin, which we never see. And like Natalie Stovall playing Devil Went down to Georgia, which we play every night. So I don't know, I feel like I'm too close. But I'll give you their list. Number five is drums. They talk to 10,000 people. Number five is drums. Number four is violin. Number three is piano. Number number two is saxophone. Yeah, cuz the saxophone is like the biggest horn.
Morgan
Well, thanks a lot, Bill.
Lunchbox
Isn't that the most masculine horn though? Cuz it's generally tuba.
Bobby Bones
Tuba's big.
Lunchbox
No, that ain't that. Listen, tuba doesn't count. It's a big one. Is the basic guitar of horns.
Bobby Bones
But like saxophones like love music, man. It's always like associated with like romantic music.
Lunchbox
I don't know about that. I think you're thinking like dirty movies.
Bobby Bones
No, you know, I think it's sexy.
Lunchbox
Because saxophones, whenever you make the noise of like what's happening in the dirty movie, you go, it's saxophone.
Bobby Bones
No, that's the guitar.
Lunchbox
No, it's not. Oh, no. Number one's guitar, for sure. So. Hottest instrument that somebody could play. I would probably say piano if I had to pick one of these. If. When I see. When I see somebody play piano, I'm like, dang, I wish I would have learned piano. I wish I would have learned it more than what I did. I took lessons as an adult, and I learned, like, how to look at a sheet of paper of music, not even know how to read it. So. Yeah. Am you ever had. You ever been with somebody, like, play, like, dated somebody that played instrument?
Morgan
Well, my ex husband could play the saxophone.
Lunchbox
That's why she hates it. I did. I know he played in the band in high school.
Morgan
Why?
Lunchbox
He.
Morgan
He. And he loved Kenny G. He did.
Lunchbox
He did.
Morgan
Yes. Like, he was like this, you know.
Eddie
Yeah.
Morgan
Military guy who Lowkey loves. I don't see it putting on Kenny G at night. So how I date anybody that played an instrument. Oh, in college, my boyfriend played guitar, which. That. That was nice.
Lunchbox
What the heck? Why does it. Amy's the one now who turns everything creepy.
Morgan
Wait, I did? No.
Lunchbox
How is that creepy? That was nice. That's what you sounded like. That's what you sound like.
Morgan
I was saying that was cool. Like, you. You liked. Like, at parties or if people were hanging out.
Lunchbox
Here's Wonderwall. Everybody gather around. Here's Wonderwall.
Morgan
It was cool that your boyfriend was the one that could be like, oh, I got the guitar and I'll play and everybody will sing a lot. Like, that's fun.
Lunchbox
If you could play any instrument right now, and you were automatically given a level B skill, not A. But level B means you could play and you could do just fine, what would you play?
Morgan
Yeah, Piano.
Lunchbox
Yeah, me too.
Morgan
Love that.
Lunchbox
If anybody just picks the drums, I feel like the drums and the bass guitar just for people, for the most part. Who all the other instruments were taken, especially bass guitar.
Bobby Bones
Oh, really?
Lunchbox
Like, if you play bass guitar, it's because your big brother was playing real guitar.
Bobby Bones
That's right.
Lunchbox
Or because you got in a band, they already had a guitar player, and so. Okay, I guess I'll learn bass.
Ryan Hurd
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Unfair, but probably true. All right. Thanks, Amy, for letting us know about your deepest desires musically.
Morgan
Thank you. Very welcome.
Lunchbox
I mean, Bones, I'm going to give you a fictional restaurant, you tell me the show. And so we kick Lunchbox out of the room. Amy's here now. Eddie and I have a bunch of cash. We've been gambling on. Yeah, I want to win my money back. Because you had to pick last time.
Bobby Bones
So the last time I won five bucks. You want to go ten now?
Lunchbox
No, no, no. I want to win the five back.
Bobby Bones
Oh, okay.
Lunchbox
Okay. So that's my five $1 bills. Three, four, five.
Bobby Bones
Five dollars. You want to go low?
Lunchbox
No problem. I'll take Lunchbox again.
Bobby Bones

Lunchbox

Raymundo
Excuse me?
Lunchbox
Chubby's Famous.
Raymundo
Chubby's Famous. Never heard of it. So give me Stranger Things, Boy Meets World.
Lunchbox
Oh, Lunchbox got six out of ten. How many? Think Amy got probably two. She got three lunchboxes. It's time for the Good News with producer Eddie Little.
Bobby Bones
Presley is nine years old. She lives in Columbia County, Georgia, and she started a lemonade stand. It's called Lemonade for Love. And she doesn't keep the money. She doesn't go buy toys. She doesn't get a lot of ice cream. She donates it to people that need it. So she grazed over $2,000 recently, and she's given it all to the families of Deputy Brandon Sykes and Gavin White, who recently lost their lives in the line of duty. So she's given to their families for whatever they need. But, guys, this is the third year she's done this. She's raised over 3, $500 selling lemonade.
Lunchbox
That's awesome. And if I were 9 and I set aside a lemonade stand and started actually making thousands of dollars, I think I'd probably start to go, maybe I don't want to give it all away. The fact that she's still giving it all away is awesome. That's a billion dollars to an adult.
Bobby Bones
To a kid, if you're.
Lunchbox
Yeah, no, yeah, that's a billion dollars to an adult. 3500 bucks to a 9 year old is a billion dollars to an adult. So the fact that she gives it away is awesome. There you go. That's what it's all about. That was Tell me something good.

A lot of times, the big economic forces we hear about on the news show up in our lives in small ways. Three or four days a week, I would buy two cups of banana pudding, but the price has gone up, so now I only buy one.
Lunchbox
Want the demand curve in action. And that's just one of the things we'll be covering on everybody's business. From Bloomberg businessweek, I'm Max Chavkin.
Eddie
And I'm Stacey Vanek Smith. Every Friday, we will be diving into the biggest stories in business, taking a look at what's going on, why it matters, and how it shows up in our everyday lives.
Lunchbox

Lunchbox

So listen to everybody's business on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Andrea Gunning, host of the podcast Betrayal. Police Lieutenant Joel Kern used his badge to fool everyone, most of all, his wife, Caroline.
Lunchbox
He texted, I've ruined our lives. You're going to want to divorce me.
Eddie
Caroline's husband was living another life behind the scenes. He betrayed his oath to his family and to his community.
Lunchbox
She said you left bruises, pulled her hair, that type of thing.
Bobby Bones
No.
Eddie
How far would Joel go to cover up what he'd done?
Lunchbox
You're unable to keep track of all your lies, and quite frankly, I question how many other women may bring forward allegations in the future.
Eddie

Lunchbox
Over to Amy with the morning corny.
Morgan
The morning corn Call a pencil that acts shady.
Lunchbox
What do you call a pencil that acts shady?
Morgan
It's a little sketchy.
Lunchbox
That was the morning Corny bones. So if you're a driver and let's say traffic's kind of bad, and you're always, like, going around this car, hopping this lane, trying to save time. Amy, is that you at all. No, you just stay in one lane.
Morgan
I mean, I'll switch lanes when I need to, but I'm not zigging zagging to like, you know, save an extra 10 seconds.
Lunchbox
If you're a zigzagger, they did a study, that's a good name for this, on how much time you're actually saving. So I think we all probably know people who are constant lane switchers. Experts crunch the numbers. According to research, chronic lane changers on an 80 minute commute are saving four minutes. Oh, but I'm telling you, the stress that it brings probably takes 10 off your life. I think it's a net loss of like six minutes because that's stressful to do because you always have to look in your rear view blinker. You gotta wave. They let you in. Sometimes they don't want to let you in. And depending on traffic slowdowns, around two minutes of the time saved could be more of an accurate number than the four minutes. So it's really just not worth it. Sometimes I'll. If I'm doing it, I'm in a hurry because I'll occasionally, if I'm like in a big hurry, I'll look for advantages and I'll get in, but then I'll look at the car that I just went around to see where that car is, because that's my marker. And then in four minutes, when I see that car go past me in the right lane, I'm like, dang it, if I just would have stayed in the same lane, I'll always mark it or breadcrumb it to know exactly where I am. In the two laner, there is a McDonald's gold card, which is kind of cool. And I have a friend who has a chipotle. It's like a black card. He's an artist. They gave him a card that's Amy. It's unlimited Chipotle. So you can go every day.
Morgan
Yeah. That's awesome.
Lunchbox
And have a chipotle. Yeah. So McDonald's has a gold card, also known as the McGold Card, obviously. And it's something that you literally can just apply for. You can win in a contest. Occasionally. It's a corporate perk to a celebrity. The McGold card gives free meals from McDonald's unlimited access. You just get to go and go, here's my gold card. Get whatever you want. If you could have a gold card to any restaurant, any mid fast or fast food restaurant, where would it be?
Morgan
Well, I think based on the colors, I gotta change gold to red. And I'D have a Chick red card.
Lunchbox
So just a Chick Fil A unlimited card?
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Yeah, that would be good. The thing about Chick Fil A that's difficult is that there's always lines. If I got a line cutting card goes fast, though. It doesn't. Because it Sometimes it wraps around and you're in a different parking lot. Especially around here. They're like near strip centers, and they don't have adequate street to parking lot, so it's difficult to get in. I don't like it. They don't have a menu. Sometimes they just attack the side of your car. But I do love it. So other than the line, if it was like a fast pass that came with it, like, you do it, you buy a Disney, you get a fast pass and Chick Fil A gold, that'd be awesome. I think I would still like Chick Fil A is such a great option. But since we've already used that with our friend, I think a Sonic. No matter what, I think mine would be Sonic. They have this thing now. This is not a commercial. They have this thing now called a. It's a. It's like a pretzel. It's one pretzel stick, but it's big and fat. It's maybe the greatest thing I've ever eaten from a restaurant ever.
Morgan
It's a big, fat pretzel.
Lunchbox
Amen. Not on a stick. You don't need it. It is the stick.
Morgan
Oh, it's not on the stick.
Lunchbox
And it's warm and it's soft. I'm not even a pretzel guy. I'm not even a salt and savory guy. I'm a sugar guy. It's one of the greatest things I have ever put in my mouth.
Bobby Bones
Do you dip it?
Lunchbox
Nope. I don't. I think you can, but I'm driving. It's one of the greatest. Nah, I'm not gonna do the joke. But yeah, yeah, he thought about it. I did. I did. I did. It's awesome. So I'd probably go Sonic. Eddie.
Bobby Bones
Whataburger.
Lunchbox
Whataburger.
Bobby Bones
But I advise them that they don't give me a card because we'll. We'll break the. The company.
Lunchbox
You don't want to see the company go down.
Bobby Bones
We have a big family. We'd go every single day.
Lunchbox
That'd be an orange one, too, obviously, right? Yeah, obviously. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
With all the little stickers on it that say ketchup and tomato and pickle.
Lunchbox
Ketchup is legit. A burger because it comes in the pack that you can just sit on the middle, you know, the console, the little cup. Yeah. Instead of having to like rip the top corner off, get it all over your fingers, squeeze it, put it on paper.
Bobby Bones
Have you had the spicy ketchup?
Lunchbox
No, but I don't like spicy.
Bobby Bones
Okay, well, then don't worry about it then.
Lunchbox
Like, I've asked you before, do Mexican people think spicy is normal?
Bobby Bones
Pretty much, yeah.
Lunchbox
Lunchbox.
Raymundo
That's easy. You want breakfast, you want lunch, you want dinner, you want dessert? Dairy Queen. They got it all.
Morgan
I didn't expect that one out of left field. I. I don't hate it, but like, I've never.
Lunchbox
I've never heard him talk about Dairy Queen like that. Yeah, I agree.
Raymundo
Fast food. I would have said Cheddar's, but that's a sit down restaurant.
Morgan
True, true.
Raymundo
So I can't if fast food. Dairy Queen has it all. Chick Fil A was taken. Go something different. You got dessert. Kids love ice cream. Kids love burgers. Kids love chicken tenders. Who's got it? Dairy Queen.
Lunchbox
That chocolate shelled ice cream at Dairy Queen is dipped. It's. Yeah, it's so legit. It could have been a mid. I did say fast or mid.
Bobby Bones
You did.
Lunchbox
So.
Morgan
So you could do Cheddar's, Maybe.
Raymundo
I don't know if that's mid.
Lunchbox
He's committed Dairy Queen at this point.
Bobby Bones
Dairy Queen has breakfast.
Lunchbox
I don't know. Well, you use that as part of your argument then.
Raymundo
Once I said it, I was like, man, I don't know if they have breakfast.
Lunchbox
He doesn't want to get fact checked on it. I hear you. I hear you. Yeah. The McGold. If there are any restaurants out there that like to give me any kind of gold card to their place, I will be your biggest advocate. I've never had one of those. I had a Bonefish grill.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah.
Lunchbox
For six months. Unlimited card. Once.
Bobby Bones
And when we were on the road, we would always go.
Lunchbox
We'd always go to Bonefish Grill.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I think you had a Carrabba's one too.
Lunchbox
Same company.
Bobby Bones
There we go.
Lunchbox
Same company. I would love and I would treat you like a king. Whoever, Whoever you are out there, have your people in touch with my people. That just means DM me these days. That would be awesome.
Ryan Hurd
Wake up.
Lunchbox
You wake up in the morning riding his wigs.
Raymundo
Next bid.
Lunchbox
And Bobby's on the mic. So you know what the this is? This is the Bobby Bones I saw. The Phil from Duck Dynasty died over the weekend.
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Which they just posted on social media and they Were like, hey, passed away Sunday. He had Alzheimer's and a blood disorder. He was 79. They are bringing back Duck Dynasty, the revival on Sunday coming up.
Bobby Bones
So is he in it?
Lunchbox
Probably, if they've already shot it. I don't know. I thought the timing was weird.
Morgan
How? I don't know how sick he was leading up when they were filming.
Lunchbox
They say there's no word on his cause of death, but he'd been suffering from Alzheimer's and a blood disorder. They are having a private service. Did you guys watch Doug Dynasty? No.
Morgan
Back in the day, yeah.
Lunchbox
You did?
Morgan
Yeah.
Lunchbox
You would have thought that I would have been really into it. I never really watched it. I know I've met some of the guys. They've all been super nice, but I really didn't watch. What I know about Phil was he played football. Louisiana Tech, back in the day. Whoa. He played quarterback. He was the backup to Terry Bradshaw.
Bobby Bones
Really?
Morgan
Really?
Lunchbox
Yeah. And he was so good that they expected him to start. This is, from what I've heard. They expected him to start once Bradshaw left, but he was so interested in hunting that he was like, nah, I'm good. I'm gonna go and hunt.
Bobby Bones
And then I think it worked out.
Lunchbox
They eventually, you know, built that company.
Raymundo
Wow.
Lunchbox
He's not going to be in the revival series. Okay. So. Yeah, that's the deal.
Bobby Bones
And he's the dad, right?
Lunchbox
He is, yeah. He's. Yeah, he's the one that started it all. Big, long, gray beard.
Raymundo
He's the matriarch.
Morgan
That's it.
Bobby Bones
Big word.
Raymundo
Yeah, got it. I read that somewhere.
Morgan
Like, about him or just about someone.
Raymundo
Being the head of the family? They're called the matriarch.
Lunchbox
Well, there's a patriarch.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. What's a patriarch?
Raymundo
Oh, no, because I get it.
Morgan
Wrong system.
Lunchbox
So what do you. So a matriarch is a woman?
Raymundo
So. So I thought it was the head of the house. Like.
Lunchbox
Well, no, it is, but it's the. Like the woman.
Morgan
Yeah. Like at his house. It's matriarch.
Lunchbox
Correct. That's why I knew that. Yes. The Patriot. You can have both, though, at the same time.
Raymundo
Well, I mean, I thought he was the. He's the face of the family, so I thought he'd be.
Morgan
Y' all watch Barbie.
Lunchbox
The male head is the patriarch. The female head is the matriarch. All right. Yeah, but you knew a word. You're close, and you almost got it.
Raymundo
Yeah.
Lunchbox
There was another thing I saw over the weekend. It was Kris Jenner. Now, she is the mom of Kim Courtney and Chloe. Okay, the mom. Everybody with me. Yes. She had facelift, plastic surgery, and it looks like she's 30 years younger. It's the best I've ever seen in my whole life.
Raymundo
Let me give it a Google the surgeon.
Lunchbox
We know who he is now. That facelift cost $300,000.
Morgan
Oh, I was gonna say it wasn't cheap.
Lunchbox
I'm telling you, she's 69 years old. See, it looks like she's 45.
Raymundo
She does look good.
Lunchbox
Now, she also has, you know, great makeup, but she had great makeup on and her other stuff, too, when she looked her age. I mean, this is a plus work. Let me know when you pull that up.
Raymundo
It looks good.
Lunchbox
Kris Jenner's new look stuns fans.
Bobby Bones
She looks like Kim.
Lunchbox
Yeah, very much so. Do you know why this is funny? You know why?
Morgan
Why?
Lunchbox
She's her mom.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, she looks like. That's crazy. What a good job.
Morgan
Does she. Is that when you go, you have your consult and you take a picture of your daughter and you're like, you take her in.
Lunchbox
I want to look like this. Wow. Yeah, it looks great. What I like about it is she came out immediately, was like, yeah, yeah. Because here's the thing about people that have, like, work done on their. We can. Everybody can always tell. It's just not something that you. It's a weird thing to bring up. It's like if somebody gets a bad haircut, you. What do you do? Do you go, nice hair. Your hair looks good. But when you know you're lying and.
Bobby Bones
Can you tell someone, like, your face looks better? Like, that's amazing.
Lunchbox
Or like, what's so different? You don't. That's. If you just don't say anything.
Morgan
What if you say, oh, you look refreshed? No.
Bobby Bones
Well, you're.
Morgan
You're glowing.
Lunchbox
I'm pregnant. That's what I would think if you said that. I do have the story here from plastic surgeons admitting procedures. They would not get number one, a Brazilian butt lift. It's the transfer of fat to the butt from other parts of your body to give it more volume and shape. Dr. Sam Fuller said he'd never get one. Yeah, I hope he doesn't, but I don't know if dudes actually get them. But he says it's about women. It has the highest complication rates within plastic surgery, including bleeding, deformity, pain, blood clots, and death.
Morgan
Oh.
Lunchbox
Next up, liquid rhinoplasty, which is a nose job. It is a non surgical nose reshaping done with fillers and cosmic and cosmetic Surgery procedures that aren't cutting. Yeah. Would you just pump it with water or what?
Morgan
I don't know. I guess. Sounds like filler.
Lunchbox
That feels like waterboarding. Buccal fat removal. B U C C A L. People love this for creating more sculpted cheekbones. Is buccal your face?
Morgan
I don't know if it's bugle or buckle.
Lunchbox
Yeah. I don't know.
Morgan
But also I don't want to like, as you age.
Lunchbox
That buccal looks good, though. I'm looking at pictures.
Bobby Bones
Oh, it does.
Lunchbox
Yeah, it looks pretty solid. Now they say don't do it. I know, but I'm telling you, it.
Morgan
Looks pretty good because as you age, you lose the fat in your face and then that's when people are like, oh, shoot, I removed it. Dang it. I want more fat back in.
Lunchbox
Then there's the fox eye trend and thread lifts. This trendy procedure is popular with celebs and influencers who want to create an almond shaped eye. The doctor says that procedure is abused and destructive to the eye area. He explains the main concerns are cosmetic deformity, damage to facial nerves, scarring, and alopecia. Well, you can give yourself alopecia. Whoa.
Raymundo
Who knew?
Lunchbox
Ah, the matriarch probably did.
Raymundo
And of course.
Lunchbox
Okay, all right. And the patriarch. Yeah. If I. If I could just have any plastic surgery and I like, it didn't hurt and no one knew, I would get like prep, like not breast implants, but like pec implants. That's my breath. Yeah, yeah, it is.
Bobby Bones
Your breast.
Lunchbox
I've never had pecs of all. Even as I got to be an adult man, I still have the chest of a 13 year old boy.
Bobby Bones
And you can bench a lot like.
Lunchbox
But yeah, pretty strong. It's just you don't have to like, say it doesn't grow.
Bobby Bones
Well, you said that.
Lunchbox
No, no. But you can go along and be like, oh, man. Yeah, I hear you. What would you get, Eddie? Anything.
Bobby Bones
I mean, Lunchbox says I have a big nose. Well, no.
Lunchbox
My hair.
Bobby Bones
Right. Is that part of it?
Morgan
You wouldn't do that because Bobby offered to pay.
Bobby Bones
I'm not going to Turkey to do it. I'll use Kardashians.
Lunchbox
Oh, we even had it here in America. We had a doctor that said you could come in and do it there.
Morgan
Okay.
Bobby Bones
And they said they can only do half. Either the front of the back.
Lunchbox
Because your head doesn't allow it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, no, because I'm bald in the front and the back and they would have to take the hair from the back of my head. And only fix one part. And I was like, if I'm gonna fix one part only, and I'm still gonna be bald.
Lunchbox
You're missing the point. You can't do that. That would be like me saying I want to be 3 inches taller. I guess they could do that.
Morgan
Extension surgery?
Raymundo
Yeah. They break your legs and do it.
Bobby Bones
Plus, this is a fantasy scenario, right?
Morgan
It's not, really. Bobby offered it. And Bobby, you and I, we know somebody. I just saw his hair. He's. He's open about it. He went to Turkey. He got it done.
Lunchbox
He's open about it. He's like, he killed somebody.
Morgan
I'll tell. Yeah, I'll tell him.
Lunchbox
You know what? He's finally coming to the table and admitting what he did.
Morgan
I'm not gonna, like, say it on the radio. He's talking about it, maybe with his friends, but I. It looks so good, Eddie. And I was like, oh, my gosh. Bobby offered to send Eddie there and pay for. He's like, man, I would totally recommend it. I go back in a heartbeat. It was amazing.
Lunchbox
I'm not doing anymore.
Bobby Bones
That's off the table, and we're not going to Turkey, so we're good.
Morgan
Have y' all seen the videos that pop up? People are flying back to America from Turkey, and there's all the hair trans people in there, and they're like, I'm on Turkish hairlines. It's a plane full of men with, like, little holes in there.
Lunchbox
They're all like, rats.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
All right. There you go. Thank you, guys. On the Bobby Bones show, now, Ryan Hurd, he's written number one songs like Sunrise, sunburn, sunset for Lou Bryan, Lonely tonight for Blake Shelton. Also, his song chasing after you was a number one. This is Ryan Hurd from the Bobby cast talking about the time that he got to go and meet Paul McCartney. You mentioned funeral, but I was gonna ask about Paul. Yes, that's Paul McCartney. Right?
Ryan Hurd
Paul McCartney.
Lunchbox
You met him?
Ryan Hurd
I met him at a Grammy party.
Lunchbox
Give me the story.
Ryan Hurd
We were nominated for Circles around this town, and we went to the Grammys. We wanted to go to three parties we had to go to. And we go to the party, and we get there, like, obnoxiously early, and there's no one there. There's no food. There's not even beer out. And I have my tuxedo on from the Grammys still. I have this, like, Frank Sinatra tuxedo, and I decided to take my clip on off because. Do you know how to tie a bow tie?
Lunchbox
I do not I clip on.
Ryan Hurd
Not one person knows how to do it. So I have a clip on. I take my clip on off. I open up my shirt, have my real bow tie hanging down the placard of my shirt. We're hanging out at the party. People start to trickle in. It gets to be about time where we really do need to get to the Sony party. And we go up to Greg, say, hey, Greg, we love you. Thank you. We'll see you soon. Wish we could stay longer, but we have to go to the other party. And he's like, oh, you got to meet Paul. Okay, we don't have time to meet your friend Paul, but we'll see you, like, when we see you. But thank you. He's like, no, no, you come on. He grabs us, run across the room, and, like, we get closer. I was like, oh, my gosh. Like, that is Paul McCartney and his wife. And I, like, kind of freeze. And she freezes, and he just brings us right up. Hey, Paul, These are my friends Marin and Ryan. Neither one of us have anything to say. And he goes, hey, I'm Paul. Did you guys win a Grammy? Like, and he's like, me neither. Okay. And he starts talking, and he grabs my. My tie. My bow tie. After we've made exchanged pleasantries, he starts messing with my untied bow tie. I love the way you're wearing your tie. My wife wants me to wear like this to these things more often. These things as in the Grammys. Okay. And so he's messing with my tie. He looks over his shoulder. He's like, hey, honey, come here and look at this guy's tie. So he's like, messing with it. And she's like, oh, I love the way you're wearing your tie. I wish you'd wear it more like. Like that more often. And he's like, yeah, okay. So do you know how to tie one? He's like, no, nobody does. I was like, absolutely nobody does. Said, well, Paul, we have to go to our label party. It was really nice to meet you. And we left and got in the van, and we're just sitting there kind of, like, in silence. And I just said, I forgot to get a picture. That's the only thing anyone said was, I forgot to get a picture. And so over the next, like, six months is how long it took me to write this song. I wrote the story of meeting Paul. It's really special to me. I mean, it's. It starts with, I met Paul McCartney at an LA after party in a suit, talks, made by Armani, wondering what I'm doing here. So there's, like, imposter syndrome at the beginning, and it goes through, like, talking to Paul. Everything that we talked about is in the song. And then I tie it back to, like, why that was such a moment for me. But to have, like, a song on your record that is better than a picture. Like, it is the entire memory. But it's more than that. It's like, the reason I make music is because my dad played Let It Be on a record when I was a kid, and it made me fall in love with it, made me want to do it. It made me want to take piano lessons. And so to have the opportunity where you get to meet your hero, they say, don't like. And there's a lot of times you do meet your heroes, and you're like, that guy's kind of a jerk. Like, Paul McCartney was the nicest human I've ever met. He's a professional at meeting people. He's a professional at disarming people and making them feel comfortable. He's the best in the world. He's the biggest rock star in the history of the world to me. And he was nice enough to just ask us if we won a Grammy that day. And I know it's the Grammys.
Lunchbox
It's.
Ryan Hurd
It felt like he was asking, when's your birthday? You know what I mean? Like, it felt that personal to me.
Lunchbox
Mr. Bobby Bones. Go check out that Bobby cast with Ryan Hurd. It is up now. Wherever you podcast Bobby Bone, show Bonehead glory up.

The day this story comes to us from Indiana. A man was hanging out with his friends. When he gets a call, he's like, hey, man, I know you're a bus driver. Can you come do this field trip? The other bus driver got sick. He's like, yeah, man, I'll be right there. Gets the 38 kids, four adults driving up onto the median, stuck in the mud. He had a blood alcohol content of 0.22.
Lunchbox
Surprised they can just call a bus driver and be like, hey, you busy?
Bobby Bones
Like a buddy?
Lunchbox
Yeah. Hey, Randall, we got 38 kids. How sober are you?
Bobby Bones
I'm good, man.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Luckily, nobody got hurt, and we can laugh about it. Yeah, that's crazy. Okay, I'm Lunchbox.

A lot of times, big economic forces show up in our lives in small ways. Four days a week, I would buy two cups of banana pudding, but the price has gone up, so now I only buy one.
Lunchbox
Small but important ways from tech billionaires to the bond market to, yeah, banana pudding. If it's happening in business, our new podcast is on it. I'm Max Chavkin.

He texted, I've ruined our lives. You're going to want to divorce me.
Eddie
How far would he go to cover up what he'd done?
Lunchbox
The fact that you lied is absolutely horrific. And quite frankly, I question how many other women are out there that may bring forward allegations in the future.
