It's time for the Bobby Bones Post show.
Bobby Bones
Here's your host, Bobby Bones.
Lunchbox
All right, let's go through some voicemails. Number one.
Amy
Hey Morning studio. I am calling in for a stock update.
Lunchbox
Nvidia had the Biggest single day drop.
Amy
Of the stock ever. So I wondered where that leaves you guys with your Nvidia.
Lunchbox
Love the show. In the history of stocks, it was the biggest stock drop ever because they developed a way for $5 million to. Because what Nvidia is. I'm sure you know this lunchbox. We explained what Nvidia is.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's a company.
Amy
It is a public company.
Bobby Bones
I think my mic went out.
Lunchbox
Sorry.
Bobby Bones
I was pulling up the media to check it out.
Lunchbox
You might never want to sell.
Amy
You don't know. He. I think he doesn't know.
Bobby Bones
No, no, I will. I got it right here, man.
Lunchbox
No, what? No, no. But what do you. What do you think it is and does.
Bobby Bones
It's like an AI company.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Bobby Bones
They do. They had some software that was like, boom. Like cram. Crop of the crop.
Lunchbox
Boom, crop of the crop. So. But I don't develop chips. They go on, like, chat GPT. They. It is AI and it costs a ton of money. This Chinese business was able to do it for like 5 million bucks instead of for like the hundreds of millions. And so it lost, like 17%, like, massively. The market itself had a bad day because of this. So, yeah, I took a hit. I'm not sure how it's doing today.
Bobby Bones
Oh, it's up today, man.
Lunchbox
But. Yeah, but it was way down yesterday.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but we're up $3.36 today. 339, actually now 342.
Lunchbox
But what we have in. That's not. That's not anything at all.
Bobby Bones
No, no, yeah, yeah, that's per share, man. We are. I mean, total. Over the course of our Nvidia, we are up $975 right now.
Lunchbox
Okay, Pretty good.
Bobby Bones
So we're still up a ton from.
Lunchbox
From the beginning.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, from the beginning.
Lunchbox
How much? It bombed out yesterday.
Bobby Bones
Let's not talk about that.
Amy
Like, that's quite the crash.
Lunchbox
Massive. So overall, we're at up how much total?
Bobby Bones
$975 on Nvidia. 986. It just went up big.
Lunchbox
Sure. And you're sure that's accurate?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, total return plus 986. We're up 23% since we bought it.
Lunchbox
And then what do we put in it all together?
Bobby Bones
And my guys, my analysts, they still say we should buy 91%.
Lunchbox
Well, now, yeah, because it crashed out. So, yeah, that's when you buy. When it crashes out. Now, I don't want to buy any more with you because I'm ready to have my money back. How much do we put in total to Nvidia?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's a good question, man. Well, we put in $4,300, so that means the total worth is $5,255.
Lunchbox
All right, we're holding on.
Bobby Bones
We're doing pretty good. I think we should buy some more.
Lunchbox
We're holding on. When do we get to get our money, though?
Bobby Bones
Well, I don't know. We said when it got up to 10,000.
Lunchbox
No, you said that, right, Amy?
Bobby Bones
Isn't that what we said?
Lunchbox
We never said we never set up to 10,000.
Bobby Bones
Dang. Now we're up 1,000. Oh, 9.99.
Lunchbox
This could be the deal where he does every cent. Says it all. Okay, here we go. Number two, voicemail. Number two. Go ahead.
Bobby Bones
I'm so excited, Bobby.
Lunchbox
I just booked my tickets for your show in Atlanta on the 4th of February.
Bobby Bones
I've been trying for years to see.
Lunchbox
Y'All, and it's never worked out, but I finally am able to see y'all.
Bobby Bones
In Atlanta, and I could not be more excited. Thank you for all y'all do. Thank you for all the inspiration and.
Lunchbox
The positivity, and I'll try not to.
Bobby Bones
Be annoying in the crowd.
Lunchbox
I'll do my best. Thank you. We're looking forward to that. We are. Next Tuesday night, Eddie and I, his broken arm and all, and Matt Stell, we're going to play a show in Atlanta. Charity show Wednesday night, Mobile, Alabama. That one sold out. They said for a while yesterday Atlanta was sold out. But then they were like, we'll open some standing room. I don't know. I think maybe. I don't know. I thought they opened it all up at the beginning. So I'm not sure what. What it is. I'm confused. But if you'd like to come, go to bobbybones.com Mike, will you see if there are any, like, standing room tickets available? Just see if there's anything up there. The weird part for me is I'd have any say in this, but that same night is my comedy special, so I. I don't even get to watch it because we're gonna be doing a show. Know what I mean?
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
I didn't get to pick the night.
Amy
Yeah. So what are you gonna do about that?
Lunchbox
I'm just gonna play the special on TV and not go play the show. Be like, you wanna? No, I don't know. So, okay, let's see. Main floor, sold out. Scroll down a little bit, Mike. Main floor, main floor. Reserve main floor, half reserved. Sold out. Sold out. There's One section at the very top. It looks like not everything on the webpage. Standing room only. No matter where you hang in madlife, you'll enjoy a great view of our stage as well as Sonic Nirvana. Even if you're standing, you can get those tickets. There are some of those up now on 94.9 the Bulls page. It's us, Eddie and I, the Raging Idiots, and Matt still. So we'd love for you to come. We're not keeping the money. Once I said it was a free show and thank God Amy caught me. Yeah, I was like, it's a free show. And then Amy's like, no, no, no, you're raising money for charity. I was like, oh, yeah. Free as in we're doing it for free. That's right. Yeah. Looking forward to that. But if you're not coming to that show, CMT 98 Central will be my comedically inspirational special. Number three, please. Lunchbox, lunchbox, Lunchbox.
Bobby Bones
You say you're a manly man, but.
Lunchbox
You won't even wear a bracelet that your 4 year old child made for you out of love. I wore my daughter's pink little bracelet for 11 years till last week when it fell apart. So what if he wants rainbow cleats? It ain't about your image, it's about his. My advice?
Bobby Bones
Think of your child before you think of yourself. That's what the whole point is.
Lunchbox
Response?
Bobby Bones
No, I am thinking about my image because I am a public personality in the spotlight and if people see me wear a. What is it? Pearl, Amy, pearl, pink and peach. Peach bracelet, they're gonna look at me different and I have to protect his image. If people see him wearing rainbow cleats, they're gonna start wondering like, why is he wearing rainbow cleats? And so yes, I am thinking about his image.
Lunchbox
Who cares?
Amy
Nobody's wondering.
Lunchbox
Oh my God. Okay, next up, number four.
Bobby Bones
Holy crap. I don't normally call and like leave messages for whatever, but y'all gave Lunchbox credit for being like the captain of Cringe. But honestly, I think Eddie's taken that over with how cool he thinks he was. And being a Trendsetter, there is 0% chance there is validity to any of that. I want some of that confidence though. I'm jealous of that. But he's out of his mind.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I can agree with that. And he was like, I was a trendsetter in school. I was cool. But usually that doesn't quite. That doesn't fall off.
Amy
Uh huh.
Lunchbox
Meaning.
Amy
But he does dress kind of like hipster cool at Times he.
Lunchbox
No, not really. When does he dress? Hipster Cool.
Amy
When he wears, like, his cute little hat.
Lunchbox
He wears a hat?
Amy
Yes. When y'all perform on stage.
Lunchbox
Like, Eddie. Yeah. What's up? Eddie's getting sicker as the show goes. His throat's hurting him, so I'm not gonna. Lunchbox got me sick. Yeah, Scuba's not here, too. And Morgan. I can hear her coug.
Bobby Bones
She's had that for 12 years.
Lunchbox
No, she's not at that level.
Bobby Bones
I haven't been on the show for 12 years.
Lunchbox
Trendsetter. Absolutely. Yes. That's what I was. Hawaiian shirts, dude. Like, I brought those back when I. When I started wearing Hawaiian shirts. The whole school wore Hawaiian shirts. Amy made a great point. You lived on the beach near the beach, Right at the water. Yeah. And no one thought of wearing them till I did. Nobody thought of wearing. Okay. Not Hayden, but a little bit. She's jealous, though.
Bobby Bones
I like that.
Lunchbox
No, she's jealous that you have this irrational confidence. Confidence, dude. Yeah. James from Virginia is the next one. Go ahead.
Bobby Bones
Morning, Bobby. Morning, studio. Morgan didn't give us an update after super Scuba Steve opened that can of jam for her. Was the jam any good? Still love to buy bones.
Lunchbox
Family, here, y'all in the morning. Bye, Morgan. How was that jam?
Bobby Bones
The jam was delicious. I had it with some eggs and bread, and it was so tasty, so homemade.
Lunchbox
Any embarrassment. Lunchbox. You couldn't open the jar, and Scuba Steve opened it right after you?
Bobby Bones
No, because I probably loosened it, and then I didn't know.
Lunchbox
We said you can't loosen it. That was the one rule beforehand is you can't claim loosening.
Bobby Bones
Okay, well. And I didn't know I was allowed to bang it on the ground. The banging on the ground was what got it. It wasn't anything.
Lunchbox
You don't think he's stronger than you with his grip?
Bobby Bones
No, I think it was all about the banging on the ground because he tried it without banging it on the ground, and he didn't get it. And then he had to bang it on the ground.
Lunchbox
But he used his brain to bang.
Amy
And on the ground.
Lunchbox
Which we often do. Yes, we use our brains to bang. Yeah, but he did use his brain.
Bobby Bones
But I always get yelled at if I hit the table, so that's not the table.
Lunchbox
He didn't hit the table.
Bobby Bones
I was not sitting over there where that was. I'm at a table.
Lunchbox
There were no rules saying you couldn't get up.
Bobby Bones
Well, I didn't know. I didn't have a mic over There.
Lunchbox
Okay. Scuba is the king because he did open the jam, and Morgan liked the jam. All right, one more. Go ahead.
Bobby Bones
Hi, Bobby. Me and my mom listen to your show every, like, morning in the car on the way to school a lot.
Amy
We really.
Bobby Bones
I really like all the advice you give and how grateful we are to have you. Have a great day.
Lunchbox
Thank you very much. You guys can leave us a voicemail, ask for advice, whatever you want. Just call 87777, Bobby. Heck, you can call, right? Do our lines still feed into the other studio after we get off the air, or do they shut down or what happens?
Amy
No, it goes to voicemail now.
Lunchbox
It just goes to automatically to voicemail line. Because it's 11 our time when we're recording this part after the show. So it can't ring through at all?
Amy
No, it doesn't show any on mine.
Lunchbox
Well, leave us a voicemail. 87777, Bobby. So I'm seeing on TikTok this trend. I can do it, and it's crazy. They call it a horrifying bodily function, and most people don't realize they can do it. One, it's not horrifying. Two, I'm pretty good at it.
Amy
What is it?
Lunchbox
Gleeking.
Amy
Oh, I gleek, but by accident.
Lunchbox
Oh, I can gleek just straight up.
Amy
You can gleek on demand.
Lunchbox
That's what I do to my dogs all the time. I can, like. I gleek right in their face all the time.
Amy
I can't do that.
Lunchbox
So gleeking is where you take your tongue and your mouth has to be wet, and you hit the bottom of your tongue against the top of your mouth, and then it's like venom that spits out between your teeth. Mouth's while driving. You don't see me. Do it strongly. Can you guys glee this one?
Bobby Bones
No, I never. I was never able to.
Lunchbox
You see it?
Amy
No.
Lunchbox
Oh, wow.
Amy
I can't.
Bobby Bones
It's like a sprinkler.
Lunchbox
It's like a sprinkler, but I'm doing it like.
Amy
I know, but you'll stand over there.
Lunchbox
I'm out of water.
Amy
I'm good.
Lunchbox
Let me glee on you.
Amy
I don't want to be gleeked on.
Lunchbox
Most estimate that about a third of the population may only glee accidentally.
Amy
That's me.
Lunchbox
It's like 1 in 10 only has the ability to gleek on command. Am I that special? Well, I mean, how to gleek on command? Okay, ready? Amy, do it.
Amy
Okay.
Lunchbox
Yawn a couple times to stimulate saliva. Get a couple yawns in there. Oh, here you Go get it in there. Good. Do you have any. Do you have any water over there?
Amy
I have.
Lunchbox
Okay. Put some. Something in your mouth to moisturize your mouth.
Amy
Stimulated saliva.
Lunchbox
Yep. Put something. Drink in your mouth.
Amy
I have it. I good.
Lunchbox
You never. I good. You never picked anything up to drink.
Amy
I don't have any water, but.
Lunchbox
What's that right next to you?
Amy
Coffee.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Take a little drink. Is it cold?
Amy
But I already have. You told me to yawn.
Lunchbox
Pucker your lips together and take a deep breath through your nose. Flex your tongue and extend it against the roof of your mouth. Mouth. Like hitting it? Yeah, hit it. See what I'm doing? No, I'm not gleeking.
Amy
I can't.
Lunchbox
No. Okay. Daily Mail. Can you do your tongue like a clover?
Amy
I can do it like this.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I can do that.
Amy
That's not. Everybody can do that, though. And I can do this.
Lunchbox
You're using your fingers to spread your fingers. I'm asking if you can clover your tongue. No, Clover.
Amy
I could only do one. I can only do. What is this one called?
Lunchbox
Taco.
Amy
Taco.
Lunchbox
Soft taco shell.
Amy
I can only do that. I can't do that.
Lunchbox
Eddie, get a zoom in here.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Let's see if I can still get the skills yet to clover it up. Ready? Okay, here we go. Out of focus. Okay. Oh, now we're talking. Ready? Huh? Ow. Not hurts. Now I'm stretching. Yeah. I can clover that sucker up.
Amy
I cannot.
Lunchbox
You flip it upside down. Yeah.
Amy
I can only go one direction, though. I cannot go the other way. That's so weird. I can go this way.
Lunchbox
Can you guys do your tongs and clover the clover thing? No, no chance. Morgan, you can. Let's see. Can you zoom in on Morgan, please?
Bobby Bones
I think I'm doing it.
Lunchbox
Hold on. Let's get a look in here.
Amy
It's hereditary, right?
Lunchbox
I don't know.
Bobby Bones
It's What?
Amy
I think it's hereditary that.
Lunchbox
Look at that camera right there, Morgan. Boom. That one right there. And go. Almost, almost. Oh, you almost got it.
Bobby Bones
Oh, am I not doing it?
Lunchbox
Not right. That was not it, right. No, it was close. It looked like you're trying.
Bobby Bones
It feels like it's there in my mouth.
Lunchbox
Can you do.
Amy
No, I'm just yawning.
Lunchbox
Can you do this? Hold on, hold on.
Amy
What are you doing?
Bobby Bones
It feels.
Amy
Are you gonna flip your. Oh, the eyelids. Gross, gross, gross.
Lunchbox
Hold on. Like this.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
Ew.
Lunchbox
I used to flip my eyelids and clover my tongue and gleek all at the same time when I was the coolest kid in School. Except it really wasn't. But it was about the only thing I had to do. Can you guys flip your eyelids?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
No.
Lunchbox
This was currency back in, like, eighth grade.
Bobby Bones
Hold on.
Amy
Yeah, I didn't ever know how lunch.
Lunchbox
Looks like he's ripping his off. Let's see. Open your eyes, though. You have to open your eyes for them. No, you have to open your eyes.
Bobby Bones
I did.
Amy
I did.
Bobby Bones
I was trying to look at Morgan. She wouldn't look at me. I don't want to.
Lunchbox
I don't feel like you're.
Bobby Bones
Open it did. I don't know what you're.
Lunchbox
I'll show you. Look, Watch this. So mine are up and I can, like.
Amy
Ew.
Lunchbox
Are you and me or him?
Amy
Both of y'all.
Lunchbox
Ew.
Amy
Yes, he's doing it. Ew.
Lunchbox
Ew.
Amy
Yeah, we're cool.
Bobby Bones
The teachers used to say if you get hit on the back when you had that up, they would stay that way and people would be scared.
Lunchbox
Yeah, they say if you eat gum too and come out for seven years. Not true. Mm. Not true. Okay. Years ago, gleaking is cool again. Nice. Champagne sales have continued to slide worldwide. Apparently people haven't been in the mood to celebrate. Why would you drink champagne over wine? Let's say not. Not occasion.
Amy
Well, I would say champagne goes with celebration. Like anytime you're doing a toast for whatever reason, that is kind of what you associate with celebration. Pop in the bottle.
Lunchbox
I guess taste wise, you wouldn't just drink champagne at home.
Amy
I like champagne, but I don't know that it falls into the category. I mean, some people I know that's what they drink all the time. They love it. But for me, I have it on special occasions or like with orange juice as a mimosa. Like, either I'm drinking a mimosa and there's no celebration, or you're popping a bottle because it's. There's something to celebrate.
Lunchbox
What's the difference in what they do to your body? Does one make you drunk faster? Does one. Champagne has bubbles. So does that make you, like, more bloated?
Amy
I mean, the carbonation may do that to people. Yes. It may not sit well with some people. I feel like sometimes if you're not drinking good champagne, you might end up with a really big headache. But don't ask me. What about wine?
Lunchbox
The same thing. If you drink bad wine, do you get a bad headache or is it person specific?
Amy
It's just in most alcohols. The. The. The. I don't want to put a dollar amount on it because I mean, there is some cheaper stuff, but I guess like the poorer quality of alcohol, the worse you're gonna feel.
Lunchbox
Morgan, your champagne versus wine relationship.
Bobby Bones
Champagne to me makes me feel full faster because of the bubbles. So wine to me goes with dinners better because I can eat and drink at the same time. Champagne, if I'm having that, like when it's a mimosa, you have half and half typically, so it doesn't make you full quite as quickly. But like a full on glass of champagne is going to make you or like Prosecco. Yeah.
Lunchbox
What's. What's that?
Amy
It's a sparkling white. It's like champagne, but it's a.
Lunchbox
Wine isn't a box?
Amy
No, they have boxes. They may have box, but Prosecco is mostly in a bottle.
Lunchbox
What's the most expensive champagne you ever had? Do you know?
Amy
Is there a dog? What? What? I don't know. What is that? Dom?
Lunchbox
Oh, I did get everybody bottles of Dom stuff, but is that champagne? Yes. Got it. What's the most expensive wine you've ever had?
Amy
I don't know.
Lunchbox
Do you know?
Amy
I know that I've had like a Camus I accidentally.
Bobby Bones
One of my exes had decided to get. When I was buying him a birthday dinner, he bought like a per glass, $75 wine.
Lunchbox
Wow.
Bobby Bones
And I didn't know that he didn't know that at the time. And then we found out and it was like a 250 bottle of wine at the end. So that one unintentionally, it wasn't worth it though. It didn't taste any different than anything else.
Amy
I think that's like we don't have a sophisticated enough palate to appreciate an expensive bottle of wine.
Lunchbox
Hey, Ray, what's Pappy Van Winkle? That is a shot and it's for. What is it? Whiskey? What is it, bourbon? Yeah, it's whiskey. It is.
Amy
That's different.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but that's expensive, right? The most expensive. Eddie, is that what we had over at our friend's house in the plastic cup? Yeah, he had it out and Eddie's like, I gotta go drink. It was just that they were having like a party, wasn't for us. But he was like, I gotta go get some of this Happy Pappy Van Winkle. There's some that is. It's 10 year. It's $11,000. Dang. Does it taste that good? No, I didn't. I didn't taste the difference at all. And is it because of. You don't have a sophisticated palate? Maybe. Well, I'm not. I'm not like a whiskey drinker, so.
Bobby Bones
That'S like, manly stuff, dude.
Lunchbox
I can't drink that once. Watch. The most expensive alcohol you've had probably Dom.
Amy
Oh, you know what we've all had and because it was a gift from our CEO is the Casa Drones tequila. That's really expensive.
Bobby Bones
I have no idea how. I don't know how much stuff is white and blue bottle.
Amy
Yeah, he gifted it to us.
Lunchbox
I think that's like 250 bucks. I think that. Yeah, the Dom I bought was more expensive than that for you guys. Oh, I still have the Dom. So do I. Unopened. Why drink it. Celebration. Drink it. What are you gonna. Wait, it's like, when I would get it, maybe when my son gets married, when I would get a nice shirt I would like. I'm never gonna wear it because I don't want to. Like, I'm gonna wait for a celebration.
Amy
Nice shirt, and then I'm so dragonis. $360.
Lunchbox
Which one?
Bobby Bones
That's legit.
Amy
The one.
Lunchbox
Oh, no, it's expensive.
Amy
I still gifted. I still think the bottle I got.
Lunchbox
Was bigger, was more expensive. You guys haven't drank it so that. That would win then though.
Amy
Yeah, I drank this.
Lunchbox
What year was that Dom? Do you remember? 1811.
Bobby Bones
Oh, dang.
Lunchbox
That's really cool.
Amy
I can check the bottle when I get home.
Lunchbox
I have no idea. I literally have no idea. A stranded hiker spends two days on a mountainside without food or water. A hiker stranded on a steep mountainside above Corona, California, survived for two days without food or water before being rescued. The hiker was located by volunteers after a helicopter search was hindered by bad weather conditions. The rescue involved treacherous terrain and a helicopter hoist operation to lift the hiker and volunteers to safety. The hiker, who was in pain from dehydration, had no serious injuries, was successfully rescued and provided with food and water. You know, that first drink of water after being so dehydrated, it's got to be like Casa de Grones. It's magical. That's from the Star Telegram. I have a buddy that is a big hiker in Colorado, Utah. Like, he. And he goes by himself on two and three day camping trips by himself. For Christmas. I got him like a sat walkie because phones don't work like a sat walkie satellite.
Amy
Oh.
Lunchbox
Because they called the nickname, you're gonna die out there.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
And so I got on like a sat walkie because it's crazy to go out there for three days. Was that Expensive.
Amy
A SAT walkie.
Lunchbox
I don't think it was as expensive. I don't know what's expensive? Over a thousand.
Amy
It's all relative.
Lunchbox
I think it was like 700 bucks. I think it was close.
Amy
Wow.
Lunchbox
It's a lot because like the one I got my kids, I said wow. I know. Why, why are you wow. Meowing. I said, did it cost that much or did I spent that much on a friend?
Amy
Because you know what?
Lunchbox
Friends are friends forever.
Amy
SAT walkie.
Lunchbox
Unless they die in the woods. That's my, that's my thinking. Yeah, the set I got my kids was like 15 bucks. The trucker set. Yeah, that was our SAT though. Those are just. Those are just what, how long is it? What's the range? I don't know, three miles, ten miles, I guess. Yeah. Ray, let's take a mid roll here. Don't buy these from the gas station. The FDA uncovers a deadly secret in male sexual enhancement drugs.
Amy
Okay, are those like the bumps?
Lunchbox
A lot of people are a lot of people.
Bobby Bones
But why would they sell them there if they're not being sold?
Lunchbox
King of Romance, Black Panther Extreme Diamond 3000. Rhino Blitz Gold 3000. Or African Superman. That's the one I would get just by reading the titles. I'd go African Superman first and then I'd go Rhino Blitz second. Dang. In a cons, if you're buying this, do you even care what the FDA says? Like you're just throwing caution to the wind, right? If you're at a gas station buying some sort of sexual enhancement drug. In a concerning development for public health, the FDA has issued a critical warning about several widely available sexual enhancement supplements. The agency's laboratory analysis. Man, they broke down African Superman. They revealed that several of these products contain undisclosed ingredients that could pose serious, potentially life threatening risk to consumers, particularly those with underlying health conditions. And they list them all off. These products contain compounds similar to the active ingredient in prescription Viagra. Well, that's why we're in, right? That's why we were even flicking through them to see what they are anyway. Which requires a careful medical supervision due to its powerful effects on blood pressure. Many consumers turn to these supplements seeking a more affordable or discreet alternative to prescription medications. The FDA warning serves as a wake up call to the supplement industry. That's from rollingout.com do we think though mostly what the deal is here. These companies, this is me speculating, are taking some of the chemicals in prescription and just putting it in that. But the reason people could end up being hurt by them is they don't have a doctor saying you're okay to take the prescription. It's not like they're taking possibly black tar or putting it into the pill.
Amy
Yeah, when you're prescribed something, they know everything else that you're on. They know all of your yeah, pre.

Don't go shopping at Target with khaki pants and a red shirt on. Don't go shopping at Target with khaki pants and a red polo shirt on. Switch up songwriter mode. An old lady came up to me. She said, how much for this cream of wheat conditions?
Amy
Other things you have going on? Because some stuff just does not mix well.
Lunchbox
So probably if you. If you take Viagra me speculating and you run out, you can go get you African Superman and that'll just cover for a couple days.
Amy
I don't know. I'm not taking.
Lunchbox
I would give somebody 100 bucks to take an African Superman on the air.
Bobby Bones
Oh, my gosh.
Amy
You.
Lunchbox
If we could find an African Superman.
Amy
And then what? Like, then what? What do you just let us report back?
Lunchbox
Just report back on the part show? Yes, yes, yes, just report back.
Amy
So, like, they take it on their own at home?
Lunchbox
No, no, no. They take it when they get in, in the morning. They. They have to. You know those suits here. No, no, hold on. Listen, listen. We may not want to see you. This is content. Listen, you know those suits, Amy, depending on the score or the color, it's like green man or yellow man that they're full. You can't really see their face because it's all spandex, really tight. You put that full suit on, you take an African Superman.
Amy
You mean you want them in spandex?
Bobby Bones
That's the whole joke.
Lunchbox
How.
Bobby Bones
Judge.
Lunchbox
How do we judge?
Amy
I thought you would just ask them about it.
Lunchbox
No, they a lie. I want to put them in a green suit. I want them to take African Superman and then I want them to report back.
Amy
I don't think this is going to go over well with hr.
Lunchbox
It's a bit. Everything is a bit. Nothing's real. Anything we do as a bit is not real.
Amy
Okay.
Lunchbox
Nothing we do would go over well with hr. When we talk about all the stuff, half the crap. We would get in trouble for a real office.
Amy
Yeah. No, no, no. I know.
Lunchbox
We get into fights on the air.
Amy
I know, I know. I mean, obviously we have audio of the person accepting the deal and being like, yes, I will do this.
Lunchbox
So the offer stands. I'll even buy the green or the prince.
Bobby Bones
Wow.
Lunchbox
You go full green or red suit.
Amy
At the morning, they just wear like. Like, spandex shorts.
Lunchbox
Now. I want the full suit for the effect, though. At the moment, it's just funnier to look at. At the morning. You take, I don't know, two African Superman. I don't even know what a package looks like. I don't know how many you take. I need to see because I want full Superman. Why is Lunchbox not jumping on this?
Bobby Bones
Why aren't you jumping on it? Can't do it, man.
Amy
Why?
Lunchbox
I'm scared to see what happens. These look scary. Do they? I want to see a picture.
Amy
Pills or the suit?
Lunchbox
Well, the suit's fine. I've seen a lot. Oh, yeah. It looks like two at a time, though, right? It looks like it looks very illegal, man. 150 bucks. I love it. You take two African Superman in the morning? Call me. The undeclared substance is. Consumers are advised that sealed in a field.
Amy
Why is Ray not doing it?
Lunchbox
It's the active ingredient Viagra. It also contained traces of the undeclared prescription substance Telafidel. I don't know what those are. The supply of African Superman tablets is illegal. I wonder what they mean by that. The supply is illegal. I guess to sell them, you can't, because I thought you'd get them at gas stations. Okay, look up Rhino Blitz. We want to see the horn. You know, we want to see the horn of the rhino. Dude, that would be the funniest bit. Oh, my God.
Amy
Tell me what is. Look at that feeling about this.
Lunchbox
Look at how they're laughing.
Amy
I know.
Lunchbox
Hilarious. Just to have to take a African Superman pill and see what happens. Just. Those words are funny.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Like, hey, guys, I'm taking two African Superman. Let's see what happens. And then you put on one of those green suits, which is just funny, too, by the way. If someone. If Lunchbox just walked in in one of those green suits with no African Superman, we'd be like, that's funny.
Amy
What if the person gets addicted?
Bobby Bones
What in the world?
Lunchbox
Well, I don't think after only two African Superman, you can become addicted depending.
Amy
On what it does to you.
Lunchbox
Like, you may chase the feeling, but I don't think you're. That's a. That's not addiction.
Amy
Well, what.
Lunchbox
The Food and Drug Administration is advising consumers not to purchase or use Rhino Blitz. Yeah. You know why? Because you don't want to be better than you. Fda. You have to warn you that. It says no headache. Wait, what?
Bobby Bones
That's a warning on some of these.
Amy
Oh.
Lunchbox
On the front of the package, there's three rhinos, right? And they're running at you. They're massive rhinos, too. Rhino blitz gold. Fast acting, long lasting. No headache. Extra strength.
Amy
So, like, do some of these give a headache? I guess.
Lunchbox
I wouldn't buy those. You know, I'd move past that. Dude, Rhino bliss is hilarious for a.
Amy
Name someone is gonna end up like.
Lunchbox
What else would we name them? Let's say someone said, you get to name these pills. And they're gonna sit up in the front of a gas station. You can name them anything you want. Like to draw stupid men to buy them. Like tractor. Let me see. I like the word tractor. And then I like the word.
Amy
I think like something with a bull.
Bobby Bones
Tractor.
Lunchbox
Like tractor. Strong.
Amy
Hung like a.
Lunchbox
Well, that's different, though. It's not about being hung.
Amy
I don't know, maybe something like with a. I think a bull. You need something with a bull. Like bold. Like a bull.
Lunchbox
Bullhorn. Would you like to. Sir, would you. Before you.
Amy
I like alliteration.
Lunchbox
Would you like to buy some bold bull. Bull. What does bold bull do? Well, bold bull is good.
Amy
Yeah. How about the blazing blaze? Blazing ball.
Lunchbox
You want a fire now? Blaze feels like it's going to burn you. You don't want your privates to burn. Like, you want to stay away from burning privates.
Amy
Bulldozer.
Lunchbox
That's why I thought tractor or bull. Okay, that's good, though. Bulldozer. Bulldozer. But it's a bull. Yes. And it's dozing. But then you fall asleep. I don't like that because now I'm dozing. You know, there are actual offices where they're sitting around doing this. Exactly.
Amy
I know. They're like, okay, what about plowing?
Lunchbox
Trent? Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
Okay, good. How about tractor? Plow?
Amy
I. I don't like this job.
Lunchbox
Trent. What do you think? How about African Superman? You know, I think we're going to go with that. Dude, that's so funny. Extreme diamond is one of them. That feels like a jewel.
Bobby Bones
Sounds nice.
Lunchbox
I get it. Diamond is the hardest substance.
Amy
Oh, yeah.
Lunchbox
But diamonds aren't big. Like, I don't want it to be like it needs to be. Like, there's gonna be.
Amy
Some are big.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but that's the expensive kind. Not at the gas station.
Amy
But you just said it's not about.
Lunchbox
No, I said size. Well, hung is a reflection of it, even if it's not erect. See what I'm saying.
Amy
Oh, okay. I don't really know. I just remember someone saying that to me in 10th grade.
Lunchbox
If I were gonna take.
Amy
Oh, I couldn't Google what it meant. I had to go ask what it meant.
Lunchbox
Like the Hung Hula Hoop. Right. If that was. That was it I was gonna buy at the store, I would want. It would need to grow it naturally and over a long period of time. And it stayed that way. African Superman. I expect quick results and back to normal.
Amy
What's that? It lasts hours, so I can't call.
Lunchbox
A doctor for that one. Over four hours, though. With Viagra, it's an actual medication.
Amy
How are we talking about this?
Lunchbox
Urgent care. Come on in. What you need? Excuse me? What? I took African Superman. You have to write it down on the sheet because the. Oh, King of romance. Eh, I better be writing poetry if I take that one. That's one with a bear on it called King of Romance. But that needs to be, like, remembering her birthday, writing rhyming poetry. But bear is good.
Amy
Or gorilla.
Lunchbox
Okay. Oh, my. Okay.
Bobby Bones
Oh, boy.
Lunchbox
Okay. Like, giant gorilla. Like. Like.
Amy
Gorilla gritty gorilla.
Bobby Bones
Gorilla grinder.
Lunchbox
I don't. That felt painful.
Amy
What are. Why are we still talking about this?
Bobby Bones
You're talking about it.
Lunchbox
It's you. And you keep, like, saying it in to.
Amy
I just. The more we talk about it, then stuff comes up, and then I'm like, okay, we probably should move on. It's just been a lot.
Lunchbox
You guys ever take the bumblebee ones that are just like.
Bobby Bones
No.
Lunchbox
Didn't we do that on the show? That one was one we were okay with. Remember? We put them in a green suit. They took the bumblebee ones. Didn't get the same effect. They just ran around in the green suit. There was nothing else that happened. There's a tuberculosis outbreak in Kansas. It's the largest in recorded US History.
Amy
Your people. Lunchbox.
Lunchbox
Let's go to lunchbox here.
Bobby Bones
Well, I'm worried because Morgan was just in Kansas, so she may be infected.
Lunchbox
But you've already had it, so you're good?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I'm good.
Lunchbox
So, lunchbox, you're the expert. Tell us about tuberculosis.
Bobby Bones
Well, if you start sweating at night when you're sleeping, like, and I'm not talking, like, a little drip of sweat, like, you woke up and you feel like you've run five miles and you have to get a towel and put it down in your bed. Go get tested for tuberculosis. If you're always tired.
Lunchbox
I know he's still struggling.
Bobby Bones
If you're always tired, you might have tuberculosis. If you have phlegm constantly in your throat, you might have tuberculosis.
Amy
Yeah. When someone with TB coughs, sneezes, or spits, the bacteria is released into the air, and that's when someone else nearby can become infected.
Lunchbox
That's how Amy got it after Lunchbox had it. A tuberculosis outbreak in Kansas is now the largest in recorded history.
Bobby Bones
Oh, man.
Lunchbox
Even more than like the 1700s or something.
Amy
It's curable and preventable, though.
Lunchbox
But back then it wasn't.
Bobby Bones
It ain't curable.
Lunchbox
And they couldn't. Since they couldn't prevent it, everybody. I just would have figured it had been like 1800s type thing.
Bobby Bones
Amy, it's not curable. You always have it inside of you, and it has a chance to become active.
Lunchbox
Like gritty gorilla. You always have it inside of you.
Amy
It lies dormant.
Bobby Bones
It lies dormant inside of you.
Amy
Are you sure it doesn't go away?
Lunchbox
Eventually, tuberculosis is curable with antibiotics.
Amy
There you go.
Lunchbox
However, it's important to complete an entire course and treatment to prevent the disease from coming back.
Amy
He did that. You did that.
Bobby Bones
Yes, but now I have a less than 1% chance of it becoming active. But it is not completely gone.
Amy
Sorry.
Lunchbox
Okay, so it's not a virus. So it leaves. It's bacteria. So the virus never leaves.
Amy
Right.
Lunchbox
Bacteria does.
Amy
Thank you.
Lunchbox
Dormant latent tuberculosis can be treated and considered curable as the medication aims to prevent its dormant bacteria from becoming active and causing disease. However, it's crucial to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed by the doctor. Yeah, dude, you can get rid of it.
Bobby Bones
Okay, well, when I took it, they told me I have less than a 1% chance of it coming back because I took the pills. They said it'll never be gone from your body. That was from the disease center when I went.
Lunchbox
You went to the disease center? There's a building, had a sign, said disease center.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you had to go once a month to get your pills.
Lunchbox
That's a real building?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Disease center is right there on Town Lake. Man, I'm not even arguing. I'm not. I've just never seen that.
Bobby Bones
East side of 35 right there, Riverside. Guess it was Cesar Chavez, but yeah, right there.
Amy
Maybe we've just progressed since then because I was. Because it says here TB does not always stay in your body. And most people, the immune system destroys the TB bacteria. However, TB can be inactive, lying dormant or active.
Lunchbox
And the difference for the most part is viruses stay and bacteria. Bacteria can leave if treated.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Every month you had to go get your new pills and they interviewed you, how you're feeling. They would, you know, take X rays of your chest. It was amazing.
Lunchbox
There are 51 cases of tuberculosis in Kansas. There were in 20, 23, but now there's 100 and over. 109. Huh? Morgan, everybody okay when you were there?
Bobby Bones
As far as I know, I'm also okay. See, this is probably sweat or that's.
Amy
Probably what you're thinking about. Lunchbox. It says once you tested positive for tb, you'll always have a positive skin test, even if you complete the treatment for tb. Maybe that's why you're confused, because I feel. I feel like I heard something similar, but I. I don't. I don't. I don't think I have it anymore.
Lunchbox
Well, I. I'm glad you don't, but.
Amy
I don't think we're supposed to donate blood ever.
Lunchbox
He donates all the time just to get the credit on the show.
Bobby Bones
You guys. Don't ever talk about it.
Lunchbox
Tell them you have tuberculosis or you had it when you do that.
Bobby Bones
I don't know.
Lunchbox
Oh, no, he's infecting.
Amy
Okay. You can donate blood if you have had tuberculosis and have been successfully treated for at least 24 months. So it was, like, during a time period. He should be good now.
Lunchbox
All right.
Amy
Thank goodness, a smartphone.
Lunchbox
And here we go. People with active tuberculosis or who are being treated cannot. But you're good, then.
Amy
You're good?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I'm good.
Lunchbox
Man, meat, cheese and butter diet causes a man to ooze cholesterol from his body.
Amy
That's disgusting. That is. So what is oozing cholesterol even look like?
Lunchbox
I would imagine it's, like, sweating, and it comes out as Crisco. Like my grandma. It was all Crisco. We had Crisco everywhere. Cardiologists at Tampa General Hospital have recently come across something I'd never seen before. It's nasty. This is from JAMA Cardiology, the Florida man whose carnivore diet pushed his cholesterol so high that it literally seeped out of his body. Oh, I'm looking at the pictures.
Amy
I like orange.
Lunchbox
It looks like Cheez Whiz coming out of his pores of his skin. Oh, my God. The diet, consisting of meat, cheese, and lots of butter, saw the unnamed man develop painless but very noticeable yellow nodules emerging from his hands and elbows. Doctors tested his cholesterol, found it to be over 1,000 milligrams per deciliter. Dude, you'd see it come out of his hand. That's wild. That or Tuberculosis.
Amy
Tuberculosis.
Lunchbox
Okay, fair enough.
Amy
If I had to pick.
Lunchbox
Smartphone use leads to hallucinations and detachments from reality and aggressions in teens as young as 13. Think smartphones get a bad rap? I think if you do anything more than normal, the guy here eats way more meat, butter. I mean, that's that. Do you do it that much? You know what comes out of you? The ooze. You're on your phone a whole bunch. You know what comes out of you? Hallucinations. Smartphones are making teenagers more aggressive. Just from that statement, would you agree or disagree?
Amy
I don't know about the aggressive part, but smartphones are doing something to detach from reality. I could see how that happens. Yes.
Lunchbox
Causing them to hallucinate.
Amy
I don't understand that.
Lunchbox
I would say my hallucinate. Hallucination is when I think it's vibrating and it's not even in my pocket.
Amy
Well, yeah, like a phantom thing.
Lunchbox
That's a bit of a hallucination.
Amy
Yeah. True.
Lunchbox
Scientists concluded the younger a person starts to use the phone, the more likely they would be crippled by a whole host of psychological ills. After surveying 11,000 teens, do you think the phone will be cigarettes?
Amy
Maybe. There could be something to it, even with, like, how close we keep it to our bodies all the time.
Lunchbox
Meaning? Back in the day, doctors recommended cigarettes. They were prevalent, and it wasn't like, ooh, it's bad for you. It's just what it'd be like having a bottle of water.
Amy
Yeah, everybody smoked.
Lunchbox
I wonder if. If we'll look back in 20 years in phones because of what they're doing to our brains and even what we find out, if they're doing anything to us through radiation, et cetera. If phones will be the new cigarettes.
Amy
Maybe I'm rooting for it.
Lunchbox
I'm rooting to be right on that one. Respondents also reported they pose harm to themselves. 42% of American girls, 27% of boys age 13 to 17, admitted to problems with either depressive or suicidal thoughts.
Amy
I mean, that's the. Yeah, that's just not the phone. It's like, what are. How are you engaging on the phone? Social media. Yes.
Lunchbox
Yeah. It does give you the easy avenue to engage in those ways, though, because.
Amy
Like, you're playing Roblox. That's not the problem.
Lunchbox
Amen. You're right about that.
Amy
But it's a struggle I feel bad for or just be very difficult to be a teenager during this time. But I'm sure, like, did our grandparents and parents think of it?
Lunchbox
Probably because we're on the phone all the time. We actually had a way to talk to people on the phone all the time.
Amy
Yeah, but only when we were at home.
Lunchbox
But still it was, it was so new to them.
Amy
We were at a pay phone.
Lunchbox
Absolutely. But it was so new to them that they probably thought, wow, this is the worst. Because it was the worst it's ever been where there was like, in their minds, an absurd amount of communication. Wow. They're just on the phone all the time. They're not outside playing.
Amy
I know, but we didn't have the pressure of like, you know, people's highlight reels and oh, their life looks so amazing. Filters or.
Lunchbox
But we didn't even have to not have that. I'm just saying, I think it was the same. It's the same generationally, I guess prank calls, pretty rough to where, but in 15 years there's going to be some new element that we don't even have now. So everything that changes is exactly the same. Just when we had the phone and call waiting and three way calling and we stayed on it all the time. Our grandparents, three way calls. I do sneakies, but I think our grandparents and parents were like, I said, Grant, my grandma was like, these kids, they watch TV all day and they stay on the phone like, look at what they're learning, this filth from television. Look at what they're. They're so the same, but different. And in 15 years, it'll be the same but different as well. That's the one thing that doesn't change. Ex military officer says he had a conversation with a seven foot mantis.
Bobby Bones
Oh, man.
Lunchbox
During an abduction.
Amy
I think he might be hallucinating.
Lunchbox
What's a mantis? Praying mantis. Oh, like a bug. Yeah.
Amy
Conversation, he said.
Lunchbox
A retired military officer has claimed he had a conversation with a seven foot praying mantis. Looking being. Lt. Col. John Bilch was speaking to News Nation's Ross Calhart in an exclusive interview where he claimed that he was abducted. He said he was told by his alien abductor that the body is just a machine that houses the soul and they can't steal his soul or consciousness. And also went on to say that the extraterrestrial was angry with him, but it had no intention of causing him physical harm. The former Green Beret was talking about his belief and it goes on from the Daily Star. So let's remove ourselves from going, how ridiculous an eight foot praying mantis would be. Okay. Or seven foot. Let's just look at it as, what if something so unbelievable happened to us and Nobody believed us. And it did. And nobody. And when we talked about it, people rolled their eyes or said, you're loony, you're crazy, you're hallucinating. But we knew it happened to us and we were the only one that knew. How isolating would that feel?
Amy
Yeah, that'd be really hard. That'd be really hard. But I still don't think that means I'm gonna believe that he talked to a praying mantis.
Lunchbox
Seven foot praying mantis? Yeah, a mean looking seven foot praying mantis type, type creature. It's not, doesn't really have to be a tall praying mantis. Real one. Yeah, but how, how crazy would that be to have a story where no one believed you and you knew it was true and that has to have happened over the last hundreds of years. Maybe not a seven foot praying mantis. Maybe a seven foot praying mantis. In my mind, probably not. But okay. Where that's happened and later we realize, oh, we were so wrong about that. That did happen. When people were saying this, they were actually telling the truth.
Amy
Like people that maybe tried to say something about Diddy early on and no one believed them and now we believe them.
Lunchbox
You know, in the Venn diagram of not believing, believing.
Amy
Okay, yeah, that's the part that I'm.
Lunchbox
Like, oh, I would say though, there are other humans who have done really awful things like allegedly Diddy has done. But yes, I could say that. To say somebody has done something and nobody believes you like a preacher or a priest whenever they happen and they're like, no way, he would never do that.
Amy
Right.
Lunchbox
But there's a difference in a preacher and a priest. When other priests have done it, preachers have done it. And I've never seen a seven foot praying mantis anywhere. I've never done it. Right, but what if that's true? Like the 000001% and this guy just like. Because again, he's a former Green Beret, high training clearance, probably some trauma. Easy to say that.
Amy
Yeah, it is easy to say that.
Lunchbox
And what if he's like, they're gonna, they're gonna blame this on trauma and no one believes you? You know what, I don't even believe it. But I'm believing as of right now because I don't want him to feel alone.
Amy
Right.
Lunchbox
I believe in the seven foot praying mantis. I feel you. We learned in 50 years that there were abductions and people were brought back and the whole time we laughed at them.
Amy
Maybe we just don't laugh at them, but we just don't you got a.
Lunchbox
Good giggle over the seven foot praying mantis?
Amy
I didn't giggle. I was just like, I don't believe it.
Lunchbox
I got a good giggle. And now you're giggling. See?
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
No, it's crazy. Probably not true, but there's got to be some of these. It's like the conspiracy theories, 98% of them aren't true. But occasionally there's one that we finally find out it was true. And then you're like, everybody looked at it and it was like, there's no way. Discounted, discounted, discounted. No way. Those people are crazy. And then it turns out to be true. So the JFK files. So this is what's happened so far with those. Trump signed to release them, but really that's not what that was. What he signed was for them to go to like an expert who works in that department to then go, okay, we can release them. They have not been released. So sometimes I'll see people on TikTok going, oh, we read the new JFK files. No, you haven't. They haven't been released. You're lying. You can have read what Biden released some. They were redacted in places. And Trump did sign for then another department to make the decision to release them, but they're not been released yet. But even that where people were like, there's no way that it wasn't John Wilkes Booth. Harvey Oswald. Thank you. Booth did Lincoln.
Amy
Yeah.
Lunchbox
No way. It was ca. One of the theories that came from inside the car. What?
Amy
Inside the car?
Lunchbox
That's one of the theories. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
It was a convertible.
Lunchbox
I know, but that there was a gun like, that shot him from wherever it was. Like not, not somebody with a gun that held it up. Like there was a. I'm not even saying that's what I believe. But there are, there are theories inside of documentaries where people came out of manhole covers and shot because they ended up at like a restaurant, all muddy, like it's wild. CIA, the mob, all these reasons. So when that comes out, there's going to be a lot of people who for 50 years were like, that's crazy. That's crazy. No way that happened. And you know what? It did happen. The whole. We talked about conspiracy theories where the US would bomb its own self to then create a hatred toward another country to go like, we just got bombed, so now we must go to war with them. We talked about that last week.
Amy
I know, it's crazy. Still hard to believe.
Bobby Bones
Exactly.
Lunchbox
And it's been proven true. So Anyway, seven foot praying mantis. I got you. If you're listening, I'm in. Let me see if there's anything else we want to do here. Do you want to talk about your Starbucks stories? Your throat hurt too bad, Eddie.
Bobby Bones
My throat hurts.
Lunchbox
Okay, we'll come back to that one. Let us do two other things. We'll be done. Raymundo thinks I should try non alcoholic beer. I guess my thing with beer in general is it smells like pee. If I'm not gonna get drunk, I don't want to taste something that does that tastes bad. So why non alcoholic beer? Same taste. And it's gonna give you that answer you're always asking us for. Man, it's so bad, right? Well, I mean, then you'll be able to answer your own question. You can talking this stuff a little bit better. And I can get you the non alcoholic beer.
Amy
What?
Lunchbox
Like, athletic, but I know poop tastes bad. I'm all good. I don't need to eat it to see. I think this will just answer so many of your questions. I think me being drunk is my question. Like, that feels like it'd be awesome. Like, I would just love to be drunk and relax, right? Or be high and just be like, dude, I got no cares. With the non alcoholic beer, you're going to be able to experience everything except for the drunk feeling. But that's the only part I would want to experience, right? Beer, you'll know how you start to think on fizz, you know, when that, that taste hits you, you'll start to feel when it touches your tongue. It's not a pop, it's not a soda. It's a totally different type thing. And I think you're gonna really solve a lot of the questions you have that you ask us. And you'll be able to do it all yourself. Mostly it's like, what does it feel like to be drunk? Do you guys think I should drink non alcoholic beer? No.
Bobby Bones
No, no, no. I think you drink non alcoholic beer because you're used to drinking beer. So you like the taste, but you're trying to get away from the alcohol.
Amy
You never developed a liking for beer, so.
Lunchbox
And it smells terrible. I would assume it has to be an acquired taste. Does anyone ever drink beer the first time and go, mmm?
Bobby Bones
No.
Lunchbox
Okay. Really?
Bobby Bones
No.
Lunchbox
Okay. What you're gonna do originally is you will do root beer with beer. A lot of my buddies did that in high school when they first started drinking. But that's because they're getting themselves ready for beer, right? Like, they can get drunk.
Bobby Bones
I've never heard of that strategy.
Lunchbox
Yeah, my buddy Tyler did it all the time. He loved it.
Bobby Bones
Classic Tyler. Shout out Tyler. Classic Tyler.
Lunchbox
Hey, do you still have that celebrity Instagram name game? Because let's do this little game here, by the way, up on my Instagram. And the last episode of 25 Whistles Amy. They played Connect 4, and the winner got a Super bowl ticket.
Amy
Oh, I saw that they were playing, but do we know who won?
Lunchbox
Well, so the two people that. Well, yeah. I mean, I can. I can reveal it here, or they can go listen or watch my Instagram. It's up to you. I can. I can spoil it if you want.
Amy
I'll go watch.
Lunchbox
You don't have to, but it's on my. You can watch Reed and Mike play because they drew to play each other, and the winner automatically got a Super bowl ticket. The loser doesn't automatically not, but one person isn't. So the two losers will play something, and then whoever loses that does not get to go to Super Bowl. They have to go on the whole trip and not the super bowl. And that kind of. That kind of sucks. Yeah, and it's kind of hilarious. Eddie won one of them.
Amy
He won?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Amy
Okay.
Lunchbox
Going to the Super Bowl.
Bobby Bones
Hey, dude, you sound like it.

Published a book, but was crazy as I talked to her all about the things that cause cancer in our lives, like environmentally. And we also talked about how alcohol causes cancer. What that looks like. It was insane.
Lunchbox
Whole cancer stuff was crazy when it came out like three weeks ago when they were like, hey, we kind of not been telling you guys this because.
Amy
Well, the surgeon general wants a warning on all alcohol now.
Lunchbox
Yeah, he's like one drink a week wild. That's why I want to get non alcoholic beer. Raised up here. Like, drink non alcoholic beer. It's a gateway.
Bobby Bones
No. Yeah, she confirmed. She's like, all alcohol is bad for you. It doesn't even have any nutri nutritional effects. Has so much sugar in it. Red wine is even bad for you because it has dyes in it. There's just nothing out there alcohol wise. You should be drinking.
Lunchbox
Dang. Maybe I don't want to, like, maybe I'll look back and I'm like, I'm so happy. I never let. That's what I'm saying, Ray or Lunchbox talk me into getting drunk.
Amy
Well, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. You're starting to scare me.
Lunchbox

Bobby Bones
No, her about the. Oh, and then she even goes into the fact of your cleaners. All the clothes that we wear, the.
