I'm Eva Longoria. And I'm Maite Gomez Rejun. And this week on our podcast, Hungry for History, we talk oysters. Plus, the Miami chief stops by.

[Bobby Bones]

If you are not an oyster lover, don't even talk to me.

[Amy]

Ancient Athenians used to scratch names onto oyster shells to vote politicians into exile. So our word ostracize is related to the word oyster. No way. Bring back the ostracon. Listen to Hungry for history on the.

[Bobby Bones]

Come on, Bobby.

[Amy]

Transmitting across America.

[Bobby Bones]

Welcome to Tuesday's show, Morning Studio.

[Washable Sofas Ad]

Morning.

[Bobby Bones]

So, Eddie, your son took his car in for an oil change.

[Eddie]

Yeah, he just needed an oil change. He was over 3,000 miles.

[Bobby Bones]

So he goes, did you warn him?

[Eddie]

No, I just said, you know what you're doing? He's done it before. And so I'm like, you know what you're doing? Just head on over to that place right down the street and, you know, just to get your oil change. And then he calls me, like, three times in a row. And that's when I know, like, something's up. Like, why is he calling me so many times? He calls me and he says, dad, dad. They're saying my car is completely messed up. Like, not only the oil change. They need me to get my engine flushed a new air filter. And they said, my battery's about to die. And I was like, my battery's about to die. And so I said, ask him, like, how bad the battery is. And then he, like, puts me on hold, comes back, says, they say that I may not make it home.

[Bobby Bones]

No way.

[Eddie]

So I go, no, there's no chance. You drove over there. No problem. It's right. Right down the road. Just get your oil change and come back. He comes back. I have a. One of those battery testers, test the battery. It's perfect. There's nothing wrong with the battery. And the fact that they told him, you may not make it home, that's.

[Bobby Bones]

So annoying, because they saw a vulnerable young adult. He's 17 years old, and thought, well, he's not gonna know enough about it, so let's try to squeeze him for everything. They do the air filter thing, where they bring out the dirty air. Air filter, check. And I don't even. They used to get me on that.

[Eddie]

They compare it. They're like, here's a new one, and here's yours.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not even sure the one that would go woof was the one really in my car, right?

[Amy]

Oh, yeah, I know.

[Bobby Bones]

I think they would just have a dirty one back there. They'd bring up, be like, oh, do you want to keep driving with this one?

[Eddie]

See, I remember, like, the air filter, and then, you know, fill up your window. Your window.

[Amy]

Washer fluid, window wiper.

[Bobby Bones]

But that was like, six bucks. I didn't mind washer fluid, but a.

[Eddie]

New battery, an engine flush, like, you're.

[Amy]

Not gonna make it home.

[Eddie]

Like, that's the one that got me. They said, you may not make it home. But they did say, like, I'm not the judge here, you know, Like, I'm not an official mechanic, but you may not make it home.

[Bobby Bones]

How does that make you feel about that place.

[Eddie]

Never going back.

[Amy]

Boy. Why are you at a car place? And they say I'm not an official mechanic. Like, don't you want a mechanic?

[Bobby Bones]

They're just oil changers.

[Amy]

Oh, they're not. Okay.

[Eddie]

And like, I could put a new battery in. I don't think you really need to be a.

[Amy]

Okay. That's true.

[Bobby Bones]

And also, is there a such thing as an official mechanic? I'm sure to specialized automobiles, like, you probably get trained, but do you. Is there just an all around. You're. Now if you just.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

If you just work on stuff. I think you're a mechanic.

[Eddie]

No, because a friend of mine, he actually went to school for it and he got certified as a mechanic specialist.

[Bobby Bones]

But specialized in certain things.

[Eddie]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, I know how to put this engine together.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Can I just go out and work on a car and be like, yeah, I'm kind of recreational and mechanic?

[Eddie]

That's a good question. I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

So no more going to that place?

[Eddie]

No, we're done with that.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm glad you didn't fall for it. That sucks.

[Eddie]

I mean, he said it was going to be like 300.

[Bobby Bones]

Of course it was. And you know what? I probably got tricked two times back in the day because I would fall for that crap. Wow. That's how bad my air filter is. And I need new tires.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I'll just take a new car, you guys. Great point. I'll take a new car. So what he learned from this, he.

[Eddie]

Learned that just go to the oil change to get an oil change. Everything else we'll figure out later.

[Bobby Bones]

They learn anything, though, like, bigger than that. Like macro.

[Amy]

Call your dad.

[Eddie]

Well, yeah. I mean, no, just. Yeah, he said call your dad.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Amy had an issue too. She thought she was dying.

[Amy]

You swallowed a little teeny tiny chicken bone, which I made soup. But to save time on the chicken, I just shredded up a rotisserie chicken. And so in that process, I think a little teeny tiny bone ended up in the soup and then ended up in my mouth. But by the time I realized it because I sort of felt it, but then I swallowed and then it was too late. It was sort of in my throat. And what? There was nothing else I could do but just be like, okay, let's hope this is small enough and it's going to be fine. So I take a gentle swallow and it makes it down. So then I'm like, okay, I'm fine now. But what if it, like does damage on the way down or when it gets to my intestines if it starts like poking holes and stuff, I don't know. I just started to freak out that the gentle swallow was the wrong move.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, when it was in your mouth, you didn't think to spit it out?

[Amy]

No, it just sort of. It was already in the back of my throat. And then it's like the swallow just happened. I was like, okay, it's too late. Like, I don't know what else to do.

[Bobby Bones]

And you considered going to the er?

[Amy]

Why? Well, I thought, what do I do here? So that's when I went to Google. What do I do if I swallowed a chicken bone? Like, do I go to the er?

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, here you go. So you probably don't need to go to the er. If you swallow a chicken bone, the.

[Eddie]

Things you worry about swallowing are things.

[Bobby Bones]

That are really sharp or things that are really long. If they're sharp, they can puncture the intestines as they're working their way down. If they're really long, they may not even make it past the stomach. You got to figure most chicken bones you swallow are probably going to be splinters off a chicken bone.

[Eddie]

It's probably going to pass with no problem.

[Bobby Bones]

But if somehow you happen to swallow a chicken bone that's longer than, say 3 inches or a really big sharp piece, that's probably a reason to go to the ER and get a specialist there to remove it from your stomach.

[Amy]

So I knew that it was not that long and it was probably more of a splinter like he said, which that is from the University of Utah. It's so cool. I googled this and then it took me to their website and they have something called the Health minute with a doctor explaining exactly what to do. And they have tons of these, like whatever your scenario is, click the Health minute and a doctor's just telling you what to do.

[Bobby Bones]

My luck with a chicken bone, it all goes down. It's all doing good, doesn't cut anything up and it decides to get sideways. Right. It's about to come out the old B hole. Oh, that's when it turns just sideways enough. And I'm like, all right, time to go. Yeah, that's my luck with the chicken bone. Also, if you swallow over a 3 inch chicken bone.

[Eddie]

Yeah. That's on you.

[Bobby Bones]

Like how?

[Amy]

Yeah, let's read big.

[Eddie]

What were you doing with that chicken bone?

[Bobby Bones]

Why was in your mouth to begin with?

[Amy]

I thought this through.

[Bobby Bones]

Go ahead.

[Amy]

Because like my kids, the way they eat chicken, it's different than us. And I don't know if it's Just because, like, at the orphanage, like, they ate every single. Like, I think, like, there's two types of people. You kind of eat a little bit of meat off the chicken bone, or you, like, put it all in your mouth and suck everything off, and that's just how they do it. And I was thinking, what if you're in the process of trying to get every piece of meat off that bone and someone says something funny like a chicken wing?

[Bobby Bones]

And I like. And I walk in the room also. You're like.

[Amy]

And then you, like, take a thing, and then the.

[Washable Sofas Ad]

The. The. The.

[Amy]

The big bone just sort of, like, lodges its way back there, and you swallow it. That was the scenario I went through in my head, because I'm like, how does that happen?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, here's what we learned here. Don't trust old age people.

[Eddie]

Never.

[Bobby Bones]

And if you swallow a chicken bone, I pull out a tape measure, see if it's below three inches. Right. I'm glad both you guys came out of this thing okay, though, Bones. So we talked about Lunchbox's condition. He has some sort of sharp pain near his hip, and all the doctors have said we don't know what it is. Apparently, he has stumped medicine. And so we talked about it. Listeners have weighed in. Here are the top answers. It's his gallbladder. He needs an ultrasound. Oh, he may have diverticulitis.

[Amy]

Diver.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you. Another one. Definitely a hernia. Oh, another one. Appendicitis, because it can radiate to the left. Another one. A colonoscopy would help his intestines. He may be dying.

[Eddie]

Oh, wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Another one. It's the psoas muscle. Likely injured it during soccer. We have a doctor, though, that left this voicemail. This is Dr. John. Sounds like you got diverticulitis. That'll be $150. Please pay on the way out.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Eddie]

You think he's a real doctor?

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Amy]

I mean, who knows?

[Bobby Bones]

Because I don't think he would say Dr. John. That sounds like a DJ from the 50s. Dr. John playing all the hits. I think it'd be like, this is Dr. John. Dr. Wilson. He's a last name.

[Amy]

So is the theory behind the diverticul that Lunch Boxes age is because he's gone to see professionals. So why haven't they suggested it? Is it because it doesn't match his age?

[Bobby Bones]

Diverticulitis. It is inflammation in the colon.

[Amy]

Yeah, like, he. If it's that, he does need to get a colonoscopy. He shouldn't eat like popcorn like Eddie. He shouldn't eat strawberries or broccoli.

[Bobby Bones]

What's your thoughts?

[Lunchbox]

Good news is I don't eat popcorn. Very rarely don't eat strawberries. Well, that's other one, Amy.

[Amy]

Broccoli.

[Lunchbox]

I don't eat broccoli.

[Eddie]

Huh. Maybe that's the problem.

[Bobby Bones]

Vegetables. I don't eat them.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. So I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't eat them.

[Amy]

Well, I just know that those are certain things. Like my mother in law had it once they were staying with us. And now that I think about it, she had to. She was in so much pain, she had to go to the ER and turns out it was diverticulitis. It can always also be brought on by stress.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, that ain't it.

[Eddie]

He doesn't stress.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, no broccoli and no stress.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

What do you eat? A lot of sprees?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I do eat sprees.

[Bobby Bones]

Go and check out diverticulitis. What's it called?

[Amy]

Diverticulitis.

[Bobby Bones]

And it's like it's colon.

[Eddie]

Yeah, he did say his colon hurt, right?

[Amy]

Well, he said his left side.

[Bobby Bones]

No, he said, would you rub his colon?

[Eddie]

No, no, he didn't say that.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's see if that would help. Yeah, Lunchbox is in San Antonio this morning. Because what we were told, Lunchbox was that you went to go speak at a UTSA event.

[Eddie]

How cool, man.

[Bobby Bones]

And we were like, wow, they're asking him to come back and speak. And then later we found out is you were hosting a concert.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it was a fundraiser for UTSA athletics and it was turnpike troubadours and I got to host it. So UTSA basically said, man, you are famous. You are alumni. Will you come help us raise money?

[Bobby Bones]

We heard it was the radio station that is the one that did it.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. But then UTSA was a part of it. And so they're pretty proud of me that I went to UTSA because I met someone that works in the athletic department. They're like, oh, we had no idea you went to utsa.

[Bobby Bones]

And I was like, yeah, no, wait, that doesn't make sense. Those two sentences didn't. Didn't go together. That they were proud of it. But then they didn't know.

[Lunchbox]

No, no. But then he said, oh, that's really makes us proud. That's really cool. Thanks for helping us spread the word about the university. So it kind of like turned around where at first he didn't know, but then he was excited he didn't know.

[Amy]

But when he found out, he knew.

[Bobby Bones]

Interesting.

[Amy]

And he was excited. Did you tell him that you didn't graduate.

[Lunchbox]

Well, that doesn't matter.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Details, right? Who cares?

[Lunchbox]

Well, you know, you can still be an alumni as long as you went to the university.

[Bobby Bones]

Is that true? Like, if you just went for a few hours?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, I think as long as you attend there.

[Amy]

Really?

[Bobby Bones]

It sounds like that's true.

[Amy]

How many hours makes you an alumni? It's a good question, because I've taken three hours at Texas Tech and, hey, reck them.

[Bobby Bones]

Tech them.

[Amy]

But my degrees from Texas A and M and got a shout out. Southern Pines Community College as well.

[Eddie]

We don't know that one. Yeah.

[Amy]

So.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. What do you see as the official definition of being an alumni? Mike? You have to get a degree.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, you do?

[Better Picks Ad]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You're not an alumni.

[Eddie]

That's sad, man.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't become an alumni based on the number of credit hours by graduating from the institution. The specific number of credit hours acquired depends on the degree level, and then it goes through everything. Wow. I thought he was alumni. We're gonna take a call about someone saying he has to remove his colon. Yes.

[Eddie]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, let's go to Remington. Hey, Remington.

[Kyle McLaughlin]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

What's up, buddy? Tell me your story. Oh, I had diverticulitis, first diagnosed when I was, like, 24. And I dealt with it all up until, like, two years ago. I finally had surgery on it, and I'm 39 now, so up until 37. And they removed six inches of my colon. That's the surgery. Oh, yeah.

[Amy]

Well, not everybody does surgery.

[Kyle McLaughlin]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

They removed six inches of my colon and reattached it, and I haven't had any problems since lunchbox. Before you come back, why don't you stop in and get that done? Head to one of those minute clinics.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. I don't know if they would be able to do that at a minute clinic, but a surgery sounds a little extreme for what I'm feeling. Right. That seems crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, medicine can't figure them out.

[Lunchbox]

They can't. I've stumped the doctors. Like, the medical. I'm like a case study. I'm telling you, when I went to the hernia doctor, she couldn't figure it out, so she went and got another doctor to come in and look at me, and that doctor couldn't figure out, and they both just put their arms out, and they're like, we're stumped.

[Bobby Bones]

You can go now. We don't know. See your way out.

[Amy]

Are you journaling and writing down, like, every time you have a pain?

[Bobby Bones]

What kind of question is that?

[Eddie]

Amy, you know, the Answer.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, he's not journaling anything. He didn't keep a calendar.

[Amy]

Okay, well, this is. This would be helpful information if he stumped doctors. We need to start writing down every time there's a pain, and then see if you can associate any similarities in the pain, like, oh, it's because I ate this, or, it's because I did.

[Lunchbox]

This move, or Amy, then I would be writing down every second of my day.

[Amy]

No, it's.

[Bobby Bones]

Could you read us some of your journal? Amy should have said, yeah.

[Amy]

Sorry. Can you read us some of your journal?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Lunchbox]

I got off the couch, it hurt. I laid down in bed, it hurt. I got up to go to the bathroom, it hurt, and it hurts like.

[Bobby Bones]

It'S at number six on the body scale. But where is that again? It's like, to the left of his belly button.

[Amy]

He said to the left of his belly button.

[Eddie]

Yeah, above his hip, section six.

[Bobby Bones]

Got it. We got a lot of people now that are experts in a lot of doctors. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I don't know. They might be like, Dr. John Wallace is on. Wallace has this disease. Hey, Wallace. Good morning, Studio. Morning. Hi. I've been living with darvticulitis for about five years now, and the pain is pretty bad. It is like, lower abdomen, left side around. Like, the sigmoid colon is where it's really at. And if that's what it is, he would have to get a CT scan for it to. For them to see it.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Eddie]

Didn't he already get one of those?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know.

[Amy]

Dude, he got it.

[Bobby Bones]

He said he walked in and both doctors are like, we don't know.

[Eddie]

Never seen anything like this.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not even sure I went to a doctor's office. Okay, Wallace, thank you. Appreciate that. Lunchbox. What's your next move?

[Lunchbox]

I have an appointment with the gastrotologist.

[Bobby Bones]

Close.

[Lunchbox]

I don't know how you say it. That would be on Wednesday, because I already had a CT scan, and they couldn't find anything on the CT scan, so everybody's saying, oh, so I'm gonna ask him to give me an mri. I don't know what else you can ask for. The pregnancy thing, what do they do there? Ultrasound?

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Amy]

You might need to be prepared for a finger.

[Eddie]

What?

[Lunchbox]

What?

[Amy]

I'm just saying.

[Eddie]

Oh, up there.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And possibly the middle one, because that's the longest one.

[Eddie]

Oh, my.

[Amy]

I always figured it was the point.

[Lunchbox]

If it's.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, if it's really up there, they got to go with the middle one.

[Eddie]

They need the longest.

[Bobby Bones]

They gotta get those knuckles in there.

[Amy]

Well, maybe it's a few of them.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, they may go two fingers.

[Eddie]

Oh my goodness.

[Amy]

I don't know. I'm just saying he may not be prepared for that.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you ready for this?

[Eddie]

You may need to warm up for that.

[Bobby Bones]

Have you ever had the strong finger?

[Amy]

I don't want you to be scared.

[Lunchbox]

No, I have not. I may not. I may cancel my appointment.

[Amy]

We've all been there.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Lunchbox is in San Antonio this morning, you guys. We can hold off on the calls regarding guessing what's wrong with him for now. I just wanted to read back a lot of what our listeners thought and said. And then obviously Dr. John's call. Hey, it's Dr. John. Had to be 150. We'll come back in a second.

[Eddie]

Bones.

You know that big bargain detergent jug is 80% water, right? It doesn't clean as well.

[Amy]

80% water. I thought I was getting a better deal because it's so big.

[Washable Sofas Ad]

If you want a better clean, Tide pods are only 12% water. The rest is pure, concentrated cleaning ingredients.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, let me make an announcement.

[Amy]

Attention shoppers, if you want a real.

[Bobby Bones]

Deal, try Tide Pods.

Hey there.

[Kyle McLaughlin]

I'm Kyle McLaughlin. You might know me as that guy from Twin Peaks, Sex and the City, or just the Internet's dad. I have a new podcast called what Are We Even Doing? Where I embark on a noble quest to understand the brilliant chaos of youth culture.

[Bobby Bones]

Daddy's looking good.

[Kyle McLaughlin]

Each week I invite someone fascinating to join me. Actors, musicians, creatives, highly evolved digital life forms. And we talk about what they love.

[Bobby Bones]

Sometimes I'll drizzle a little honey in there too if I'm feeling sexy in the morning.

[Kyle McLaughlin]

What keeps them going?

[Amy]

And you're maybe my biggest competition on social media.

[Bobby Bones]

Like when a kid says bra to.

[Kyle McLaughlin]

Me and how they're navigating this high speed roller coaster we call reality.

[Amy]

In Australia, you're looking out for snakes.

[Bobby Bones]

Spiders and boys, right? Hey, he's no Trey McDougal. Chill.

[Amy]

This is like the comment section of my Instagram.

[Kyle McLaughlin]

Join me and my delightful guests every Thursday and let's get weird together in a good way. Listen to what are we even doing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Bobby Bones]

It's Ana Ortiz and I'm Mark and Delicato.

[Amy]

You might know us as Hilda and.

[Bobby Bones]

Justin from Ugly Betty.

[Amy]

We played mother and son on the show, but in real life we're best.

[Bobby Bones]

Friends and I'm all grown up now.

[Amy]

Welcome to our new podcast, Viva Bethy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yay.

[Amy]

Woo hoo. Can you believe it has been almost 20 years?

[Bobby Bones]

I.

[Amy]

That's not even possible. Well, you're the only one that looks that much different. I look exactly, exactly the same. We're rewatching the series from start to finish and getting into all the fashions, the drama and the behind the scenes.

[Bobby Bones]

Moments that you've never heard before. You're going to hear from guests like America Ferreira, Vanessa Williams, Michael Urie, Becky Newton, Tony Plana, and so many more icons.

[Amy]

Each and every one. All of a sudden, like, someone like, comes running up to me and it's Salma Hayek. And she's like, you are my Ugly Betty. And I was like, what is she even talking about? Listen to Viva Betty. As part of the My Cultura podcast network, available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's go to New York and talk to Erica. Erica, you're on the show. Good morning.

[Amy]

Good morning. Hi studio.

[Bobby Bones]

What's happening?

[Amy]

So I was just.

[Bobby Bones]

You were talking about expensive costs of.

[Amy]

Weddings and being in weddings. A few years ago, my sister in law got married.

[Bobby Bones]

My husband had received a text message.

[Amy]

From her about six months before saying, we're not going to do a traditional wedding. Instead we're going to do a destination wedding and only invite family who want to go and pay on for this all exclusive vacation.

[Bobby Bones]

And we looked it up and it was about $6,500. Yeah, it puts you in a bad place. Like I said earlier, I don't like it. I think if you're having a wedding for everybody coming, every cost should be covered except the gift they're going to buy you. I think that's it. Because now it's costing a thousand bucks to be in a wedding, a destination wedding of costing $3,000. If I get invited to a wedding, all I want to have to pay for is the gift. Otherwise don't be mad if I don't come. I think it's a weird societal pressure we've now put on weddings. I think the wedding that Amy was in where they were like, just wear something black. Now we're talking. So yeah, I'm over it. No more weddings for me.

[Eddie]

And your wedding was cool.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

When you did yours, I was like, now we're talking.

[Amy]

Yeah, that's rare.

[Bobby Bones]

That's rare.

[Eddie]

I still kept my tux. Like you bought me a tux for your wedding, dude, that's awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I was pretty legit. But I think that's, I wouldn't have had a wedding and said, guys, you need to go pay for something. So it was like, since I want this, I'm gonna pay for it. I don't think everybody can do that. But I don't think you should have a wedding and then expect your people to pay something come to your wedding. It's the dumbest thing I ever heard. That's all. I'm good now. Let's go to Kaylee in Wichita. Who's on the phone? Hey, Kaylee, you're on the show.

[Amy]

Morning, studio.

[Washable Sofas Ad]

Morning.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I just wanted to touch on.

[Amy]

Lunchbox not truly being alumni.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Amy]

So like I, I'm mid-30s, I work full time. Two very active teenage boys in sports. Also going to school full time, in the evenings online. I officially graduate in May with my bachelor's in strategic leadership. And my advice to lunchbox is just do it. Go back, finish it.

[Bobby Bones]

You can say, you finish it, and.

[Amy]

It'Ll feel so good when you're done.

[Bobby Bones]

He only has one class. He has three hours and he's done. But he has said many times he doesn't need it, so why would he go back, Right?

[Lunchbox]

Correct. I don't need it, so I'm not going back.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you care to say that you finished it?

[Lunchbox]

No. I mean, I walked the stage. I got pictures in cap and gown in front of the convocation center. I got pictures of me walking across the stage. So no one's really gonna be like, hey, let me see your diploma. I mean, for the theater of the mind, I already graduated. People see it like, oh, he graduated.

[Bobby Bones]

But I think. I think that's the difference in you and a lot of other people. You're only thinking graduation is for other people. She's saying, if maybe you should make this important to you. Because to you, it's like, well, people have already seen me graduate, so that's all that matters. I think it's more of a. Is there not part of you that feels incomplete because you didn't finish something? It doesn't matter what it is. It just happens to be this. And you're so close.

[Lunchbox]

No, I don't really care about completing something. It's like when I bring out a Lego set and I start building something, and like, halfway through, I'm like, all right, I'm bored. I don't care about going back and finishing.

[Bobby Bones]

It doesn't.

[Lunchbox]

You know, it's like, okay, cool. You know, whatever. And this. I went to college because I was going to be on the Real World. It was a backup plan to get a piece of paper. I was going to get famous. Well, guess what? I didn't graduate, and I got famous, so no need to go back.

[Bobby Bones]

He said what? He said. Oh, boy.

[Eddie]

Said what?

[Amy]

I said, he crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, well, he's three hours short. I mean, he could do it from home, but it doesn't matter to him, so it's not a priority. So therefore, he doesn't prioritize it. I understand. It's not me, but I understand. Okay. Thank you, Haley, for the call. Thanks, guys.

[Washable Sofas Ad]

Have a good day.

[Bobby Bones]

Play me this. Voicemail, Raymundo.

[Lunchbox]

The lady called in and said that.

[Bobby Bones]

She'D never looked you guys up. And that's how I was probably, like, six or seven years ago.

[Lunchbox]

But I finally decided to look everyone up one day.

[Bobby Bones]

And all I will say is, everyone met my expectations. Eddie was the only one that I was like, oh, dang, that's what he looks like. But not in a bad way. But everyone else, I was like, oh.

[Lunchbox]

You know, like, kind of makes sense, you know?

[Bobby Bones]

But Eddie threw me off. So anyways, love the show, but was it like, my.

[Eddie]

Because I'm Mexican. I'm Hispanic. It's probably it, right?

[Amy]

Well, no, I think we talk about that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Maybe you missed those parts.

[Bobby Bones]

I wonder what it was that made him go, what the heck with Eddie.

[Eddie]

That's funny.

[Bobby Bones]

Of all people. Give me this next voicemail. Just listening to some of the older podcasts and curious if there's anything left.

[Lunchbox]

Over from that Amazon palette.

[Bobby Bones]

I love the show. Listen every day. Thanks, Lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, yes, there's still items if you'd like to buy it. We still have items up. We have, like, wood that goes under a mattress. Don't really even understand what it is. We have some hunting thing. It's like. I don't know. It's like, it. Retail values for, like, $150.

[Amy]

What is it a hunting thing?

[Bobby Bones]

Where are you keeping this stuff?

[Lunchbox]

It's in my bedroom.

[Bobby Bones]

You're keeping all of this Amazon pallet stuff that we bought? It was all returns in your bedroom?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. I don't have a garage.

[Eddie]

Huh.

[Lunchbox]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

You know what? Just throw it out.

[Lunchbox]

No, no, no, no. We can't. I'm not giving up.

[Bobby Bones]

He's held this stuff for years.

[Eddie]

That's our business. Though. He still has that. What? Like, he still. You still have a website, right, Lunchbox?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, it's called Facebook Marketplace. I don't have my own website. Oh, my gosh. That would have been so smart if I'd have just come up with my own website.

[Eddie]

Well, whatever. But what I'm saying is it's still up on the market. If somebody buys it and he throws it away, like, what are they. What's he gonna say?

[Amy]

Like, let's hope he doesn't have it listed as some hunting thing.

[Lunchbox]

Like, I have the exact details and written down what it is. But when you're going off the top of my head, I mean, some guy offered me $15 for it, and I.

[Bobby Bones]

Was like, kick rock, why not take it for $15? That's so much better than $0. And that's all we're getting for the stuff.

[Lunchbox]

I understand, but it is worth 150.

[Bobby Bones]

It's not. It's worth what you get from it.

[Lunchbox]

And he goes, I'll check back with you in a few weeks. And he checked back with me, and I was like, nope. And he's Checked back with me like, five times.

[Better Picks Ad]

Sell it.

[Lunchbox]

And I'm not budging on it because I'm gonna make us a hundred dollars on that sucker.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, play me the final voicemail. Bobby said that his New Year's resolution was that he was going to be late to work at some point this year.

[Amy]

And now we're to November, and I'm just curious, has he in fact, been late to work?

[Bobby Bones]

Bye.

[Eddie]

Nope. Nope. I wait every day, dude. I pull up to the garage every day. I'm like, is today the day he's gonna be late? Nope.

[Amy]

So what's up?

[Bobby Bones]

What's up with you?

[Amy]

No, no, this is about you. What's up with that? I mean, it was your goal.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

You said you're gonna do it in the morning.

[Bobby Bones]

And I step outside and I take a deep breath, and I get real high. Nah. Scream to the top of my lungs, what's going on?

[Eddie]

Was it just that you're gonna be late or you're gonna miss the whole day? Because that'd be better.

[Amy]

No, that'd be weird. Why would he.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, no, if I missed the whole day, I'm dead. Come looking for me. It's not just a bit. No, I haven't been able to be late yet anyway. You can leave us a voicemail anytime. Just go over to.

[Amy]

Been able.

[Bobby Bones]

What?

[Amy]

Like you haven't been able to be late?

[Bobby Bones]

No, I haven't. Well, what.

[Amy]

What. What is gonna make you able other than, like, you were like. I feel like your doctor sort of prescribed this to you.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I don't know about that. Doctor.

[Eddie]

Yeah, because it can't be, like, a real reason. It's just got to be like, I'll be late today.

[Bobby Bones]

It's like, I have to, like, look at the clock.

[Amy]

It's a purpose, Rebel.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm, like, gritting my teeth and sweating and not getting in the car, driving to work. I. There's no reason. There's no reason. I thought there's a dumb diagnosis, so.

[Amy]

Diagnosis?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I've been diagnosed with being late, and I don't like it. I've not been late. That's all. If I'm late.

[Washable Sofas Ad]

Well, there's still time.

[Amy]

There's not, but do you remember? You were like, I'm going to do it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

You were all excited about it.

[Bobby Bones]

You were like, I was not excited about it.

[Eddie]

You were. You're like, I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a stupid segment. Hey, call us and leave a voicemail if you want. 87777 Bobby. It's the same as our phone number. Like, you can call us now. We'll answer. But anytime, day or night, if you listen to the podcast 877-77-B O B.

[Lunchbox]

B.

[Bobby Bones]

There'S a question to be had. Send it into the mailbox. Hello, Bobby Bones. I've lived in my house for almost 20 years. Every Halloween, I turned the place into a full on haunted house. My kids are teenagers now, but I still go out, do fog machine lights, sound effects, big graveyard display. It's kind of become a neighborhood tradition. I've never had a single complaint until now. I got a letter from the HOA saying the display violates the bylaws and it has to come down or I'll be fined. The next meeting isn't until mid November, which means Halloween will be over by then. But I want to keep up all my decorations until then. One, because I have, and two, out of spite. I'm convinced it's my new next door neighbor. My wife wants me to let it go, but I'm furious. Should I confront the neighbor or just let it ride or take them down? Signed Halloween Harry. So it's probably the neighbor. If no one's ever complained and you.

[Amy]

Have a new neighbor.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's annoying. So this is what I would do. And then I can tell you what you should probably do. What I would do is let it ride. Here's the thing about a letter. You don't know what's in it unless you open it. That's how we used to do bills. We couldn't pay them back in the day. You just don't open it. I'm not saying that works. No, but that's what you did. You didn't open it. If you got a bill and you know you couldn't pay it, you just didn't open it. And so I would do the same thing, or I would claim the letter never got to me in the hoa. Like, I never saw it. You're probably going to get fined. You're probably going to get a $50 fine, $100 fine, whatever the case is. And then you're probably going to be told this meeting, you can't do it next year. And I don't know if you can ask to actually find out where the complaint came from, because if you can for sure find out where the complaint came from, I would have a conversation, not a confrontation with the neighbor, because it's probably that neighbor, but you do not know for sure. So I definitely wouldn't fold it all pack it all in and put it in the house. If you've been doing this for 20 years. Oh, yeah, that's a long time. It could also be somebody new on the HOA board, too, is why. I don't just want to go right after the neighbor. Because you go out to the neighbor, they didn't do it. Now there's a new tense relationship. And it turns out somebody that just got on the HOA board is the one that decided they didn't like your display. So there are lots of things here. That's why I would leave it up again. I'm not saying that's it's going to come with sacrifice, probably financially, but you can also say you never saw the letter. Like, prove I saw it. How do they prove you saw something?

[Eddie]

Can't.

[Bobby Bones]

Can't. They can't get in your eyeballs. Huh?

[Amy]

I heard you on the mailbag. No, just kidding.

[Eddie]

Synonymous.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's right.

[Eddie]

I don't know. Yeah.

[Amy]

I say, yeah, I'm with you. Like, let it ride and pay the fine. But you also can be like, yeah, I saw the letter. I'm letting it ride.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no. Claim you didn't see the letter.

[Amy]

No. Because then you're like, no, just maybe they'll never ask you. Just let it ride and take the fine.

[Bobby Bones]

What I would do is let it ride, take the fine, and then I would try to find who is the one that doesn't like it.

[Eddie]

How do you do that?

[Bobby Bones]

And. But in a. In a non confrontational way. Yeah, you're gonna have to ask and act like you understand. I mean, like, I totally understand. I would just like to work through what. And as soon as they say, yeah, it was me, then you go to town on them.

[Better Picks Ad]

No.

[Amy]

You come up with a compromise.

[Bobby Bones]

See, like I said, that's what I would do versus what you would do.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

I think you have to find out who it is, though, or you won't get to do it next year. Yeah, but I would leave it up, address it later, pay the fine, claim you never saw it.

[Amy]

Say you can say you saw it.

[Bobby Bones]

I.

[Amy]

What does it matter? Just be like, I saw it, and I've chosen to take the fine.

[Bobby Bones]

Find me Marshawn Lynch.

[Amy]

Yeah, I'm just here, so I don't.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, whatever. We all agree, though, to leave it up. It's been 20 years.

[Eddie]

Leave it up.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Stop being weirdos. All right, There you go. Close it up.

[Lunchbox]

Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

This person worked at Avis Rental Cars, and they stole allegedly 47 vehicles from their job and Started their own rental car business.

[Eddie]

That's gutsy.

[Bobby Bones]

Here is Chief Justice Baum talking about the man accused of doing this. Here you go. There was no point, at any point that we covered in our investigation that there was any attempt by this employee to bring the vehicles back. I know that he did have some insider knowledge that others wouldn't have had. That kind of made it a little bit easier than it would have been for a normal person to steal these cars. He was renting them out and then they were continuously being used until they.

[Eddie]

Were put in the law enforcement system.

[Bobby Bones]

And then stopped by a police officer or a law enforcement agency to get them. How brave. Brave in the way of, like, I wouldn't have the guts to do that because I. But he had to learn it from somebody else. So in my mind, there's somebody actually getting away with this scheme because he learned it from someone else that's doing it. That goes, hey, since you work here, you know, you can also do this. That blew my mind. Here's another one that blew my mind. And weddings in general kind of irritate me because I think a wedding should be like a birthday party where I don't think just to come to. Just to come to any party, you should have to like, spend money. I don't think you have to go to a wedding. You should have spend money.

[Amy]

Unless it's a destination.

[Bobby Bones]

But even then, there shouldn't be pressure even like for bridesmaids, for airplane. Like, if you have a destination wedding and you're inviting people, you should pay for them to come. What? Yeah, I said it. Because people don't have the money to do that. Now all of a sudden, the pressure to go to a destination.

[Amy]

Oh, there's no pressure.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, there is.

[Eddie]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, there is. No. You don't think someone's like that. You're kind of mildly close to like, we're getting married in the Bahamas. We're inviting you. You're like, I don't know if we could. We have to stretch to do it. You know, people are stretching to do that.

[Amy]

Yeah. I think you would understand. If someone has to stretch, then they're not going to be able to make it.

[Bobby Bones]

Here is a clip from CBS Morning talking about being a bridesmaid and that it's like two to five thousand dollars to be a bridesmaid, especially on a destination wedding, according to breakdowns from Zillow and Brides magazine. Are you ready for this? The average cost. I already know. I already know.

[Better Picks Ad]

You do.

[Bobby Bones]

The average cost to be a bridesmaid $2,000? Yeah, $2,000. And if that's. It's a local wedding, if it's a destination wedding, that's a local wedding. Yes, bro, That's a local wedding. If you're talking about a destination wedding, it's a 3 to $5,000. I don't want to spend 5 to be a bridesmaid. Sue me. Yeah, I know. And it's kind of hard to decline. It is a lot. That's my point. There's a pressure to it, and all of a sudden, now you're going into debt to go to somebody's wedding. I think if you're coming to my wedding, other than, like, the gift, what are you going to pay? 40 bucks for a blender. Thank you. Other than that, it's like. And then you got a year for the blender. Like, that's too much. We have to stop that. We have to stop asking people to be a part of things and expecting them to pay to be a part of our thing.

[Eddie]

What is it? What goes into that price, the dress and the trip?

[Amy]

Well, I probably the bachelorette party, flight.

[Bobby Bones]

Hotel, the dress, possibly makeup. I don't know, like, how I got.

[Amy]

To 2000 for a local wedding. I. I would imagine it's just all the festivities that you. And then.

[Bobby Bones]

I hate festivities.

[Amy]

The bridesmaids rally together and get the bride a gift or they cover stuff for her.

[Bobby Bones]

Oregon.

[Amy]

Yeah, I've. Okay, so I've been a bridesmaid probably five times in the last six years. And, yes, you spend every bit of that money, have flights you have stuff you buy for the bride. You have your own hair and makeup you have to pay for. You have a dress you have to buy. You have trips you have to go on, the. The bridal party, the wedding itself. There's. Yeah, there's a lot of money that you spend just because you're also paying for the bride. Even on the bachelorette trip, you're paying for the bride to not have to pay for her food and her drinks and stuff like that.

[Bobby Bones]

So there should be nothing that you invite people to with the expectation they have to stretch their budget to come to your thing.

[Amy]

Well, traditionally speaking, though, like, being a bridesmaid, that's just. It's sort of. It's rare. I know in your case, like, y' all paid for the bridesmaids dresses and the groom stuff.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, dude, that was awesome. Yeah, right? Yeah, I did it right, Baby, I wouldn't ask you to, but that's not the one. That's not common I know, but it should be.

[Eddie]

But it's your party.

[Bobby Bones]

I when it. Whenever I get down in times like this, I think wwdrd.

[Lunchbox]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Dylan.

[Eddie]

Angela. Russell.

[Amy]

What would Director Bra.

[Bobby Bones]

Drd What?

[Eddie]

Not Darius Rucker.

[Bobby Bones]

Not Darius Rucker. Okay.

[Eddie]

Dear Robbie is doctor somebody's doctor.

[Amy]

Dr. Dr. D. Yeah. Do dolly.

[Eddie]

What would dolly something do Dr. Do.

[Bobby Bones]

Right. You know what? Russell Dickerson with the letters are mixed up just like see it. Morgan.

[Amy]

No.

[Eddie]

I don't know.

[Amy]

I thought it was what would Dolly really do?

[Bobby Bones]

But no.

[Eddie]

Oh, that's good. What would. Oh, and.

[Bobby Bones]

Wwdrd.

[Amy]

Doctor.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Doctor Doctor.

[Amy]

Dominican Republic.

[Eddie]

What would the Dominican Republic do?

[Bobby Bones]

What would Dave Ramsey dude. And he wouldn't spend a bunch of money on a stupid dress.

[Eddie]

And he would call it stupid.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. And he'd be like, stupid. That's like. Yes. Did you have to put on your credit card? That's stupid. They're no longer. You are an idiot fool.

[Amy]

Then I guess you have to decline being a bridesmaid if you can't.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. You're stretching your budget. Yes. That's why I think people shouldn't ask people to do things where they have to stretch at all.

[Amy]

So when I was in a wedding about like a year and a half ago or so, something I thought she did was really cool is she did have the bridesmaids in all black, but you could wear whatever black dress you wanted. So if you already owned a black dress good. Or if you wanted to go, it didn't matter the style. It just needed to be black. And you could wear your own black heels and your own black dress and boom. And that, that made it really easy because also I bought a new black dress for it, but I've been able to wear it like twice since because it's such a staple piece in my closet now.

[Bobby Bones]

Www.drd got it now. Letters to live by. Not Russell Dickerson or Dickerson Russell or d' Angelo Russell or Dolly Rowe.

[Amy]

Dominican Republic.

[Bobby Bones]

Dolly Rotten or Dominican Republic. It's time for the good news with Bobby. A pair of rookie police Officers saved a 10 month old baby who was choking at his home. Body cam footage shows the mom handing the boy to one of the officers who starts to pat the baby on the baby's back, but in like a weird way with like the bottom of the palm. It looks like another office holds the baby. And they got it. Like they. The baby lived. And I guess there's a specific way. I mean, I guess you can't heim like a baby really hard.

[Amy]

Oh, no. You have to, like, keep your fingers.

[Eddie]

Everything's gentle.

[Bobby Bones]

I should learn this stuff. I gotta.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah, we're. Have a baby.

[Bobby Bones]

We're gonna have a baby coming soon. But, yeah, you see how, like, calm these cops are on that. The. The body cam, which is pretty cool. And the officers, both with less than two years on the job, had recently completed the CPR baby training.

[Eddie]

That helps.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's pretty crazy. Police say the child was found unresponsive due to an airway obstruction. But quick action made the difference. From the New York Post. My wife had asked me the other day. She said, do you know how often she was quizzing me that you should burp a baby? And I said, I don't know about. I don't know, once a month. She said that. That is not correct. I said, how off was I? She said, every meal.

[Eddie]

Yeah, every time they eat.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, well, there you go.

[Eddie]

All right.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what it's all that was. Tell me something good. Dylan Efron is on Dancing with the Stars this season. It's Zac Efron's little brother, but he's bigger than he is. But younger brother, he broke his nose during rehearsals for the show. And so I broke a tooth during rehearsal. Same thing. There's just too many elbows and arms swinging around. And if it hits. Yeah, I can see where I could explode a nose, like, trying to hit me in the tooth. It was my fault, obviously, but I had to go and get a tooth replaced during it. But that show is hard on the body. Like, I tore my shoulder when I fell. I. I got something running by you guys, now that I think about it. So I got invited to go back in two weeks.

[Amy]

Really?

[Eddie]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

To the show because they're. If you were on the show, the whole audience is going to be people that were on the show. So not sure if they're, like, tearing us, you know, champions up front. I don't know what they're doing. But I got invited to go back and be a part of that night. The only problem is I have ankle surgery, and then it's like five or six days later, and I'd be on crutches. Like, do I want to fly across the country on crutches? Go into the theater? Yeah, on I.

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

One. Doesn't. Doesn't it, like, explode your ankle if.

[Eddie]

You fly away with the altitude and all that?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, like, boom. All of a sudden, your foot.

[Amy]

I mean, you could put maybe some compression socks on or something.

[Bobby Bones]

And then also, do I want to have to go on crutches yeah.

[Eddie]

They're not gonna see the crutches on tv, right? Like, you'll be sitting.

[Bobby Bones]

No, but it's just, like, the whole thing, like. And also, my wife's not gonna go because she's pregnant. Okay, so who am I gonna go with?

[Amy]

Well, you'll know people there. Is Sharna gonna go?

[Eddie]

But to help them on and off.

[Bobby Bones]

The plane, it's the whole thing. Like, I need. I get special assistance up front. I go a lot. You know, like, anybody that special needs you go first.

[Eddie]

Here I am. You get bored earlier.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, whatever they say I go for. I just feel like it's a lot of. I don't even know if I'm fully healed by the. I mean.

[Amy]

I mean, I think it's cool you got invited back.

[Bobby Bones]

I do, too. And I. Should I just move the surgery?

[Amy]

Yes.

[Eddie]

Oh, like postponed.

[Amy]

Slide it to the right.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think it's a dating app.

[Amy]

No, not swipe left. When on a calendar, if you slide something to the right, you move it down a few days.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I don't know if I can because it's been scheduled for a while. I mean, I don't want to go on crutches.

[Amy]

Okay, well, since it sounds like you're not gonna go, why are you even asking us?

[Eddie]

You won't go on crutches even if, like, say, I go and help you.

[Bobby Bones]

It's not even about that. It's like, you're supposed to. When you go to that show, do.

[Amy]

You have to dance?

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Eddie]

Just in case they ask you to dance.

[Amy]

Yeah. Be ready. But look at. You could do, like, Zack Morris.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Amy]

And, like, do the Jesse. Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

The sprain.

[Amy]

The sprain.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I don't think they're gonna ask me to dance. They've never asked me to dance. Like, I think I'm one of the few that's won the show. They've never asked to come back and dance.

[Lunchbox]

You're good.

[Eddie]

You're good.

[Amy]

I'm sort of like, they've invited you to come back. I think you should go.

[Bobby Bones]

But they. Everyone that has been on the show got invited to go back. I'm pretty sure. I think the whole audience is former people that were on the show, so. Yeah.

[Amy]

Then it'd be so weird if you're the only one that doesn't go.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think anyone would notice how.

[Eddie]

You're a champ, man. I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

I go, and they put me back in the corner and the nosebleeds, and I just get offended. And there's a big party afterward with, like, everybody who's wondering. But I don't go to parties. I would. If I went. I would go to that. But I don't really. I'm not really a party.

[Amy]

Well, then you should go and let us know what those parties are like.

[Bobby Bones]

I just don't want to be crutches guy. I'm gonna see if I can move my surgery.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

If I can, then. But then I'm not going by myself.

[Amy]

Okay, so find somebody. Eddie just volunteered.

[Eddie]

If you need me to go, I'll go.

[Amy]

Eddie loves any reason to leave his family.

[Eddie]

Whoa, whoa. I didn't say that.

[Bobby Bones]

Am.

[Eddie]

Why are you putting words in my mouth? I have to check with my family first.

[Amy]

I. That was a to. That was such a joke.

[Lunchbox]

Was it?

[Amy]

Yes, because we joke how you stay up here all the time.

[Bobby Bones]

You have to explain your joke. He knows it was joke. Okay, so I'm tbd. Let me figure out if I can move my surgery so I can go to a night of Dancing with the Stars.

[Eddie]

That sounds like a lot.

[Bobby Bones]

It feels like. It feels like I'm me.

[Amy]

You don't have to tell them. Why say I'm not even dancing.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm just sitting in the crowd.

[Amy]

A work obligation has come up. Are we able to slide this?

[Eddie]

And they go.

[Bobby Bones]

Is that the Dancing with the Stars thing you were talking about on the show? Yes, yes, yes, it was. Okay, let me figure out if I can move my surgery. Bones.

How are you doing? Doing pretty good. We're gonna let you play for a prize here. So I'm gonna give Amy seven real names of famous musicians, and all she has to do is get a bunch, right? Will she get over, under, or under four? You think she'll get over four? Under four. She's going under under. All right. If you get three, he wins.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Any more than three? I don't know, dude.

[Eddie]

Here we go.

[Bobby Bones]

The numbers are confusing me this morning. Number one, Catherine Elizabeth Hudson. Oh.

[Eddie]

Well, shoot.

[Amy]

I have two people in my mind, and they're singers. These girls both sing in an answer, but one of them is more of an actress. Are they just famous people or singers? I'm sorry, can you clarify?

[Bobby Bones]

I will give you the name of a musician, you tell me who it is.

[Amy]

Oh, a musician.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Kate Hudson sings, but Catherine Elizabeth Hudson.

[Amy]

Okay, Jennifer Hudson.

[Bobby Bones]

No, Katy Perry.

[Eddie]

Katy Perry.

[Amy]

Oh, shoot.

[Bobby Bones]

All that and she won't need one of your two.

[Eddie]

I for sure thought you had that. That.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, next up. Well, Robert Allen Zimmerman.

Go ahead. This is you.

[Amy]

Bob Dylan.

[Bobby Bones]

Correct.

[Amy]

That was just a guess.

[Bobby Bones]

We thought so. After hearing all that. After hearing how your brain worked, we figured that was a guess. Okay, next up, Austin, Richard Post.

[Amy]

Post. Like Postie. Like Post Malone.

[Bobby Bones]

Austin, Richard Post.

[Amy]

Austin Richard Post. Post Malone.

[Bobby Bones]

[Amy]

Curtis James Jackson. Curtis, Curt Jame, Jack 50 Cent.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Good job.

[Bobby Bones]

It's like someone was, like watching someone do a math problem, and, you know, they're just, like, scribbling all kinds of crazy stuff, but then they get the right answer. All right, you get one more, Amy. You're the winner. Okay, next up, Billy Pirate Baird o'. Connell.

[Amy]

Billy what?

[Bobby Bones]

Billy Pirate Baird o'. Connell.

[Amy]

Billy Pirate Baird o'. Connell. That is such a. Interesting name. Pirate Baird.

[Bobby Bones]

It almost sounds like Pirate Beard, doesn't it? It does, yeah.

[Amy]

Pirate Baird o'. Connell.

[Bobby Bones]

Yep.

[Amy]

Jeremy, Jimmy, Jerry o'.

[Washable Sofas Ad]

Connell.

[Washable Sofas Ad]

[Lunchbox]

Liz.

[Bobby Bones]

Elizabeth Woolridge Grant.

[Amy]

Woolridge. Elizabeth Woolridge. This is like Glorilla. I don't know who this is. Elizabeth Woolridge Grant. Ariana Grande.

[Bobby Bones]

No. Lana Del Rey. Well, it all comes down to this, Amy. If you get it right, you win. If you miss it, he wins. Ready to go? Anna May Bullock.

[Amy]

[Bobby Bones]

Tina Turner. Wow. Our winner is Danny.

[Eddie]

Way to come, Danny.

[Lunchbox]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy kind of sucked at that game. I thought you'd be really good.

[Amy]

Well, sometimes I like to call her to win.

[Bobby Bones]

No, Amy.

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Our games have integrity.

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

So tell the truth, you just sucked.

[Amy]

Yeah, I sucked.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, good. All right, Danny, stay on the phone, man. We're getting some prizes. We appreciate you listening. Awesome, man.

[Lunchbox]

Thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

This guy, Francis Ford Coppola, is selling his watches. He's gonna get, like, a million bucks from just one of the watches, it looks like. But I thought Francis Ford Coppola was dead. I thought he was, like, with Groucho Marx back in the day.

[Eddie]

Oh, he's the director, right?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. He sounds like somebody who should be in black and white. Like him, Groucho Marx, Walt Disney, the person are all hanging out. I don't know. He was alive. And so Francis Ford Coppola, he made a movie with his own money. The movie cost $120 million. The movie only made $14 million. Oh, yeah, that's right. Oh, SpaghettiOs.

[Eddie]

And that's why he's selling his. What?

[Bobby Bones]

So he has to sell. Yeah, yeah. He's selling seven of his watches because he's broke.

[Amy]

Oh, my.

[Bobby Bones]

Two things here. One, again, this guy should be walking around in black and white. Did you know he's alive? You know who he is?

[Amy]

I had to Google him. And, yes, I. I wouldn't know either way.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, right. It was like you think of Pablo Picasso and you realize he was alive in, like, the 70s and 80s.

[Eddie]

Yeah, that's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

That's crazy. And then two, Mike, this movie that he made, you remember it? Yeah. Megalopolis came out last year. It bombed. It was terrible. The movie was terrible. But he wanted to make this movie his entire life, so he sold a bunch of stuff for even before, but couldn't make anything back. What about Kevin Costner? Didn't he do that? Yeah, he did that with Horizon. Same thing. They have these passion projects they've always wanted to do, and then they fund it themselves or they find the way to get the money, and then they can kind of do whatever they want. Whatever they want. And then the movie just doesn't turn out good. So what do we learn from this? Don't follow your passions.

[Eddie]

Don't.

[Bobby Bones]

Or you got to sell all your crap.

[Amy]

So.

[Eddie]

Yeah, didn't he have, like, a wine company, too? Because I've seen, like, I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Who this dude is, apparently. Yeah, he sold, like, his vineyard for, like, $500 million.

[Amy]

What? And he's out of money, bro.

[Bobby Bones]

Why spend it all making Megatropolis or whatever? That's crazy. The Springsteen movie looks good.

[Eddie]

It does look good.

[Bobby Bones]

Mike watched it.

[Eddie]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

It's okay. Oh, really? It's completely different than a normal music biopic. Like, it's basically just him making that album Nebraska, which was, like, really lo fi. So for a movie that's almost two hours, there's only about 20 of music. Anything good? Huh. It's Jerry Allen White, who's in the Bear. He's really good in it. But I'm also not a huge Bruce Springsteen fan, so the movie on its own wasn't enough story to make me invested in it. If it wasn't about Bruce Springsteen, it wouldn't be a good movie at all. Really? Yeah.

[Eddie]

That's disappointing.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, for me too, because I'm not even a Bruce Springsteen guy, but I like. I like music. Documentary? No, no biopics, because it's not a documentary. Can the guy sing? Yeah, he's saying all the music for it, and it's surprising how much he sounds like Bruce Springsteen. You almost think that they're lying. That's cool. Well, I'll be marking that off the.

[Eddie]

List of movies that I'm not gonna watch that.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I'm gonna mark it off my list of movies I say I'm gonna see that I'll never get around to anyway.

[Amy]

I feel like it's one of those one day I'll end up watching on an airplane because it's an option for free.

[Bobby Bones]

How many Bruce Springsteen songs can you.

[Amy]

Name Born in the usa?

[Eddie]

One.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I'm not a massive Bruce.

[Amy]

If you give me one word, I'll pretty later Won't you come my way Close.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, you're thinking of Kenmore, who does sound a lot like Bruce Wayston.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

Just kidding.

[Eddie]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

Do it again.

[Amy]

Pretty well.

[Bobby Bones]

Sing that one, Eddie.

[Eddie]

Which one? Which one were you doing?

[Amy]

I know that one.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm on fire.

[Amy]

I feel like I was getting there.

[Eddie]

But you also did Born to Run, which is another Born song.

[Amy]

No, that's Born in the usa.

[Bobby Bones]

You get dancing in the dark. Yeah, dude. Born to run oh, baby, we were born to run oh, that's good. That's good. What about the one about back in the old. Back in the old days?

[Amy]

It was like back in the 69.

[Eddie]

No, no, no.

[Bobby Bones]

Glory days, Glory days.

[Eddie]

Is that him?

[Lunchbox]

No.

[Eddie]

You sure?

[Bobby Bones]

No, I'm almost positive that's Bruce Springsteen. See all that? Right? There was more music than there is in the entire movie.

[Eddie]

Oh, man.

[Bobby Bones]

When the sun goes down Glory days. Yeah, that's. That's a jam.

[Amy]

Oh, on the streets.

[Eddie]

Oh, Philadelphia. You look that up.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

What?

[Amy]

Oh, I saw Hungry Heart.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh. This one. Did you know the human headways in the Secret Garden? Show me the money. Isn't that from the movie? Yeah, yeah, but not the first time. They redid it for Jerry Maguire. Like, they just put it. Yeah. Anyway. Anyway. Movie sucks. All right. Got it. It's time for the Good News with Amy.

[Amy]

So Caitlin Thompson and Tyler Grant are set to get married in Bitton County, Washington. And then a windstorm blew in 48 hours before their ceremony and pretty much just destroyed everything. So they have no place to get married. And family, all the people in their wedding party, they're all on the phone trying to call places to find a venue that is available. Well, shout out to Sugar Pine Barn in Benton City, because they had availability the next day, and that was their only Saturday open of the entire year. So I know what you were probably thinking at first.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, somebody else broke up right before, maybe. Yeah. Yeah. She was cheating on the other couple.

[Amy]

Or the place just, like, is kind of meh. It might not be good, but. No, this happened to be their only available Saturday, and they were able to get everything moved over, but not without help from everybody involved. Like, everybody had to pitch in to move everything to the new venue, and they were able to exchange vows.

[Bobby Bones]

That's like, when someone. You have to help someone move, though. You're like, oh, man. Like, I love them, but I really don't want to help them move. Can you imagine there for the wedding? And it's like, hey, we need you to move everything to the.

[Eddie]

You have. All you had planned was to party.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

It's not fun. I know. And then you have to.

[Bobby Bones]

Now I gotta move the Art. Yeah.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what it's all about.

[Better Picks Ad]

That was.

[Bobby Bones]

Tell me something good, Bones. Wake up. You wake up in the morning, then you turn the radio on, and the dial just keeps on turning. Mike D's riding his wigs. Next bit now. Bobby's on the mic. So you know what this is.

[Amy]

Okay. But I feel like across the board, everyone was like, yes.

[Eddie]

Entertaining.

[Amy]

Yes. Good. So then, you know, you go into something with these high expectations. Sometimes it's a little scary.

[Bobby Bones]

So good.

[Amy]

I loved it. I thought I was like, okay. Everyone was right, and it wasn't overhyped. I feel like y' all set it up perfectly, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. And I had. You know, I think some of y' all saw it in theaters, but you can now watch it at home. You do have to buy it for, like, 19.99, but it was my son, my boyfriend, and myself, so three people entertained for 19.

[Bobby Bones]

When you break it down like that, pretty good deal.

[Amy]

And plus, I think it's something that my son will definitely watch again. Like, he really liked it.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you guys watch anything?

[Eddie]

Yeah, we actually went to the movie theater and watched Roofman. Roofman. This is the one Mike D. Was talking about. Dude, it is awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

What's it about?

[Eddie]

It's a true story about a guy that breaks out of prison and lives in a Toys R Us for, like, months while they're looking for him. It's freaking unbelievable, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

Who's the main person in it?

[Eddie]

Channing Tatum.

[Bobby Bones]

Which.

[Eddie]

Here's the deal.

[Bobby Bones]

He lose a bunch of weight for this one, or was that another one? Yeah, I lost, like, 70 pounds for it. Got it.

[Eddie]

Didn't even notice. I think he's, you know, he's not my favorite actor. It just kind of like, I want to see a movie with him. It's like, he's fine. He did a great job in this movie. The acting is phenomenal. Kirsten Dunst. Phenomenal.

[Bobby Bones]

He loved it, huh?

[Eddie]

Dude loved it. I will give it four and a half peanut M M's.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you think you loved it more because it was true?

[Eddie]

Absolutely. The fact that it was real and then what was just happening over and over and over, I'm like, this cannot be real. But then I researched it all and it was all real, magical.

[Bobby Bones]

Four and a half out of five on Root. Is it Roofman or Roofman? Roofman. I call it Roofman.

[Eddie]

Roofman.

[Bobby Bones]

Morgan, you watch anything?

[Amy]

Yeah, I watched a few things. I went to the theaters for Tron Aries, which is the new in that series.

[Bobby Bones]

Is Jared Leto in that?

[Amy]

Yes. Yeah. And I loved it. Maybe I love Tron a little too much, but super sci fi, it was very visually appealing. The soundtrack was really fun. So I'd give that one four out of five main controls.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. I haven't seen any Tron stuff.

[Amy]

So you like sci fi? I feel like you could. It'd be like an easy watch for you.

[Bobby Bones]

I love an easy watch. All right, what else?

[Amy]

And then I watched the Perfect Neighbor on Netflix. It's all police footage, like from their body cams of this neighbor who basically keeps calling the cops on their neighbors.

[Bobby Bones]

True.

[Amy]

It's a true story.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, is it one story or a lot of different ones?

[Amy]

One story. And it is wild. Like, it really makes me like, oh my gosh, who's living next to me and what's going to happen in my life?

[Bobby Bones]

Will you write it?

[Amy]

I give that one 3.5 out of 5 police footage just because, like, it made me not feel good. That was more the rating of that.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

And then I finished Peacemaker, the season finale.

[Bobby Bones]

Awesome.

[Amy]

So good.

[Bobby Bones]

So good.

[Amy]

Yeah, I didn't. There's a lot of things I didn't see coming. So I'd give that one four out of five equally.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Peacemaker's not for everybody, but if it's for you, man, it's awesome. John Cena is placed. Peacemaker. He's a superhero. Kinda. He's superhero. He's superhero. Yeah. All right, There you go. That is Tuesday reviews day. Bobby Bone Show Bonehead.

[Lunchbox]

This story comes to us from Mount Olive, New Jersey. An 89 year old woman was enjoying a slice of pizza at a restaurant when from across the room, there's a 70 year old man, he's got a gun and he takes it out of his holster to show his friends.

[Bobby Bones]

Boom.

[Lunchbox]

Discharges the weapon, bullet through her leg.

[Bobby Bones]

That's crazy.

[Eddie]

A lot of old people at this pizza place that's what you think of. She was 89 and he was how old?

[Lunchbox]

70.

[Bobby Bones]

Huh? I don't think 70 is that old. No, you're almost there, buddy.

[Amy]

But 89 is 89.

[Bobby Bones]

That is. Sure. But it's like, that's what you think of whenever somebody's playing with a gun in a pizza place and it goes off.

[Eddie]

When he said the ages, I'm just like, wow, these are just like older people at a pizza place.

[Kyle McLaughlin]

Place.

[Eddie]

Interesting.

[Lunchbox]

But he wasn't playing with it.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't show. It's not really the place to show it off.

[Lunchbox]

That's true.

[Bobby Bones]

Like I. You don't show it off while it's pointing at a restaurant. Also, when it's pointing, you don't have it. Let's say you do pull it out to show somebody for some reason in a public place. You never do it where the. Where the barrel is pointed anywhere to where people are.

[Eddie]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

You must. If you pull a gun out, it must be pointing down with the safety on. That's crazy to me. Okay, go ahead.

[Lunchbox]

I'm Lunchbox. That's your boat.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. That's it. That's all.

[Lunchbox]

I mean. I mean, he got arrested, and then he got arrested.

[Eddie]

Well, he shot.

[Bobby Bones]

At least shot a lady. What do you mean? Went off.

[Eddie]

You got. I mean, you gotta do the time.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't think you should get arrested for shooting someone?

[Amy]

It was an accident. I don't know why. Because he's elderly. I feel bad for him.

[Eddie]

They're all old. I told you it was gonna come into play here.

[Lunchbox]

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

[Bobby Bones]

So here's the question that was asked in this article. I won't give you the answer. I want to hear your answer. Why do women like to do the laundry? Think about that. Why do women like to do the laundry?

[Amy]

Well, the first thing that popped in my head is we do it correctly and y' all don't.

[Eddie]

Oh, that's why they like it. Yeah.

[Amy]

Well, I mean, we'd rather have it done.

[Lunchbox]

Right.

[Amy]

Thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I thought it might be. We don't. Cause I felt like that was a weird question, like, why do women like to do the laundry?

[Eddie]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

Instead of why do women choose to do the laundry?

[Eddie]

Right, right. Do they like it? I didn't think they liked it.

[Bobby Bones]

They like it.

[Amy]

I personally like laundry.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, the answer is a majority don't trust their partner to do it. Right.

[Eddie]

Oh, there we go.

[Amy]

Well, so my initial. Yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

No, you're right.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I was offended for women everywhere when I read the question. I was like, they don't like it. Some of them just choose to do it. But then. And no, the number one answer was because they don't trust their partner to do it. Right. But what if it's two women that are married?

[Eddie]

Interesting.

[Amy]

Well, then I'm sure it's not the same situation.

[Eddie]

They both like to do it.

[Amy]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

They fight over who likes to do it.

[Amy]

They don't have to worry about it. Or maybe two dudes.

[Bobby Bones]

No laundry gets done. They just buy new clothes. According to this. According to this, yeah.

[Amy]

The first thing that popped in my head was that. And the second one was like, well, maybe because we've been conditioned to think we're supposed to.

[Bobby Bones]

Classic cultural conditioning. We're done. We will see you guys tomorrow. All right, bye, everybody. The Bobby Bones show theme song written, produced and sang by Reed Yarberry.
