Not just on the first overall pick, but your favorite full team. Bobbybones.com Go check it out. Hello, Bobby Bones. I was walking my daughter. We're walking home from school. I noticed a group of kids watching two other kids fight. The kids were probably 10 or 11 years old. I yelled at them to stop. They all just looked at me and kept fighting. I didn't get any more involved because I don't want to grab a kid that's not mine. So I decided to stay out of it. My wife thought I shouldn't have left the scene till it was broken up. What would you do if you came across a group of young kids fighting? Would you stop it or just keep walking? Would you care if a stranger stopped your kid from fighting with another kid? Signed parent on the fence? I think one, you'd probably want someone to stop your kid from fighting. Yeah, I think it gets a little dicey if it's like you touching the kids. I mean, if a kid's beating another kid up big time, you can pull them off and I think you can yell to stop, but I don't think you can just jump in and start grabbing kids. What do you think?
Amy
Well, I don't. I don't know. They'd have to be pretty small for me to jump in because like, I don't want to get. I don't want to get beat up. But yeah, I would intervene. I have no problem with that. I don't even think I would think. I would assume their parents would want me to intervene. I wouldn't think like, oh, their parents gonna be mad at me for trying to stop them from fighting.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I don't think I would keep walking. Yeah, that's what they did here. They just had to walk off. Yeah, I think I would yell and then keep yelling and just be so annoying that they go fight somewhere else. And then maybe in their walk to the other place they go, maybe we shouldn't fight. Maybe we should work together. And then they remember what I said about Zach, Brian and Gavin Adcock recording a song together. Then they go and record a song together. Next thing you know, they're Dan and Shay and they're a duo making in the world, you never know what's gonna happen. I think you can stop the fight. I think if someone's beating another kid up, you can physically restrain one. But I wouldn't be touching kids just in general because all. Next thing you know, it's like Lunchbox used to do as a prank to get somebody to touch them and they're like, don't touch me, don't touch me.
Amy
Yeah, true.
Bobby Bones
Know. Am I wrong?
Amy
No. I mean, you never know with kids or anybody, man.
Eddie
It's so hard. It's an awkward situation to get involved with other people's kids, but if there's a fight going on, it takes a village, man. You got to step up and be the adult and you got to kind of touch them to separate them. Right.
Bobby Bones
Separate them is one thing. I said that's okay.
Eddie
And that's. And that. But that, yeah, I'd intervene for sure. Cuz I would want somebody to stop my kids from fighting. That'd be.
Bobby Bones
I think so too. It's just a fine line of touching kids. And don't clip that.
Eddie
That would be weird.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. What are we gonna say?
Amy
Well, Eddie's right. Like him saying it takes a village. It makes me think of someone that shared something on Instagram the other day about that, of how like, we've. We need a village and we need to kind of parent each other's kids and we've lost that out of fear. To your point, Bobby, of like, oh, what is this other parent gonna think of me? Or you don't need to do that. But somewhere along the line, like, in the last, you know, 20, 30 years, that has declined. Like, us parenting other kids and we. It's not terrible to intervene at times, but I guess it's just sensitive because, like, you can't touch other people.
Eddie
You don't want to get in trouble.
Amy
And you don't want to, like, yell too much because everybody. So many parents are scared of, like, the parents that are. What do they call them? Like, free range or passive parenting or they just kind of let their kids do whatever.
Bobby Bones
I think it takes. The village is fine in theory, but there are idiots in villages.
Eddie
I know.
Amy
That's the problem.
Bobby Bones
And it takes. It takes one idiot in order to really mess up. Yeah.
Amy
It used to be less idiots or something.
Bobby Bones
No, just idiots weren't as affected by the Internet and they didn't think they knew everything.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. So I. I'm not a big subscriber to It Takes a Village because there are. There are too many idiots in the village.
Eddie
There are lots of idiots everywhere.
Amy
God. Can you get, like. Can you get, like, a. Like, a special pass? Like, I'm not an idiot.
Bobby Bones
You prove that you're not an idiot, so you get a pass.
Amy
Yeah, Like, I'm allowed to be a part of the village.
Bobby Bones
I think we agree. You should stop the fight. It just gets dicey if you got to be grabbing kids. Yeah, but don't.
Eddie
Don't clip that.
Bobby Bones
But I think. I think you did the wrong thing by leaving it. The email. I think you can't leave that fight.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Because somebody could get hurt.
Amy
He's a man, right?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, he's a man. He's a man. He's 40. All right, there you go. That's it. Close it up. I started randomly popping up in different feeds yesterday, and it was in my for you page, but it was me. I thought that was weird. But, like, the New York Post Page 6 Other sites started to pick up or I had said, I cheated on Dancing with the Stars. Oh. And I. Yeah, it was weird because the most random things get picked up by these outlets. And because that show premiered last night. It's a news story. I talk about that win and that show so much around this time of the year because they announced the cast. They do. And then people are like, you were on the show. Why did you win? You sucked. Right. It's just so much of that. And so I started popping up on all these feeds, and it turns out I went on Jason Tartek's podcast, and we were Talking about money and finances. And he had asked how much I'd made on that show. And I said, you know, when you do that show week one, you make nothing because everybody comes back. And then the longer you survive, the more money you make. It's like $10,000 for the second week. 10,000, 20,000. 20,000. It ends up being, for the last two episodes, $50,000 an episode all in. Because they give you a base, it's around $400,000. So that's what I made doing that show. And so I said that, and I said, I also cheated on that show or I wouldn't have won. And that's where everybody picked it up and sensationalized the headline so much, because there's a rule on that show that you're only supposed to train for four hours. I was so far behind that I trained for way more than four hours because I would train with Sharna for four, and then I would record the whole session and then rent a studio by myself, Go pay for a studio, not tell the producers, and then just work by myself for sometimes 2, 3, 4 hours until I could get my part a little better to go into the room the next day. So when I say I cheated, that's what I meant. I didn't actually manipulate any rules. They did change the rules after I left, but, yeah, I didn't do anything that gave me an advantage over anybody else, except for I just worked more. Well.
Amy
Yeah, an advantage that. I mean, that they couldn't have done. Like, they could have done that for sure.
Eddie
Anyone could.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, for sure. And not only that, they pretty much all of them except demarcus Ware had some sort of dance experience on my season, so I was just trying to catch up. Yeah, they all cheated as kids when they were training. But the headline was. And I can just read you the headline because I screenshotted it. It's a good headline. It says, bobby Bones admits he cheated on Dancing with the Stars before controversial season 27 win.
Eddie
I mean, I'd click on that.
Bobby Bones
Me too. And it said, bobby Bones just made his win even more controversial, admitting he cheated.
Amy
So really, by cheated, you just worked hard.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You're really not supposed to train more because people that have no experience or they. Their bodies aren't in shape, they will get hurt, and then they'll be removed from the show. Oh, so that's why those parameters are put into place.
Eddie
But how do they stop you from. Like, they don't. In your living room, like.
Bobby Bones
Exactly. Exactly.
Eddie
There's nothing wrong with that.
Bobby Bones
I agree. And Cheetah was kind of. I. I broke. I broke the rule that they had put on us, but they put it on us so we wouldn't hurt ourselves. And I would have never survived otherwise. I was surviving.
Amy
Was it a rule where, like, if they found out, like, you would get fined or.
Bobby Bones
I don't know. They never.
Eddie
Yeah, that's what they do there.
Amy
Well, I don't know. You know, punished in some sort of a way.
Bobby Bones
So if you see that I cheated. I didn't really cheat. I kind of went, well, if I cheated, then I cheat all the time in life, constantly. Because I just went and did work and didn't tell any. Anybody that I was doing the work. So I didn't watch the premiere last night. They've kind of blackballed me from the show. So I root for people. I'm gonna have Emma Slater on one of the dancers on the Bobby cast later this week and we'll have her on the show. So I root for her. Sean is not on the show currently. I did see where Jordan Hudson was supposed to do the show, and apparently she backed out last minute. Now, this is all rumors because there's a male dancer named Sasha who I really like and knew him from the show, and he wasn't on the show. He's always a dancer on the show. He's always one of the professionals. And I was like, that's weird that Sasha's not on. And then I read that his partner. And again, this is from mostly message boards and seeing stuff online. His partner backed out. And then I started digging who his partner was. And supposedly Bill Belichick's girlfriend was supposed to do that show.
Lunchbox
Oh.
Bobby Bones
And she backed out. And she backed out. She should have done it because it would have helped her image.
Eddie
So if she backs out, then, I mean, whoever. Those people that's. They're out that season. Like Sasha's out the entire season because of them.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I mean, especially if it's a last.
Amy
Minute pull out when you think it would have felt. I guess it would have helped her image if she came off as likable.
Bobby Bones
I think she would have, though.
Amy
I think. I don't know.
Bobby Bones
You don't give any. What I did on that show because cameras are always on you. Always. If you're practicing for four hours, there's a camera and a microphone on you the entire time. They can't put anything in a package if you don't give it to them. It's any reality show if you don't give it to Them, they can't put it in. So don't give it to them while you're training. Just put a little note in your head. Don't be a douche till it's over.
Amy
Until it's over.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Don't, don't like get emotional because you can't figure it out if you don't want that being on camera until it's over.
Eddie
Could they even take some where you just say it like sarcastically and then.
Bobby Bones
They can, but if you don't give it to them, they can't use it. So anyway, I cheated, I guess on Dancing with the Stars. I guess it was against the rule, but you're right. I could have done it my living room.
Eddie
Yeah.
Amy
Or even in your mind.
Bobby Bones
Well, that's not really the same. You got to build muscle. No, you have to build muscle memory for sure.
Amy
Michael Jordan.
Bobby Bones
You don't think he's practicing those shots.
Amy
A million in his mind?
Bobby Bones
No.
Amy
Yeah. Over. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Visualization.
Amy
Yes.
Bobby Bones
No, visual. That's a thing. But if you don't, if you don't know it, you can't just visualize learning it.
Amy
He always would picture himself.
Bobby Bones
Okay, you can't tell me about Michael.
Amy
Jordan in the basket.
Bobby Bones
So that's the story. Just wanted to say what the story was here. I wanted to clear the air out of my own mouth.

If this is a lunchbox submitted segment because he saw something at the skating rink skating rink and he wants to know are you a loser if you do this?
Lunchbox
And I mean, I went there with my kids. It's a Friday night. You know, I'm thinking a bunch of kids are going to be roller skating and we're paying at the window and there's a grown man behind me waiting to pay with his custom skates. No kids, no friends. Are you a loser if you go to the skating rink as an adult by yourself?
Amy
I mean, I've witnessed something similar and it is a little odd, but I just chalk it up too. This is their hobby and they're very much into it. And who am I to judge if they're very much into something?
Bobby Bones
Did you watch them skate?
Lunchbox
Oh, let me tell you.
Bobby Bones
But they Were so good, so good.
Amy
So good, so good.
Lunchbox
I mean, flying around the rink, forward, backwards, switching forwards and backwards and weaving in and out of people. But I'm like, you look like a loser, dude. You have no friends. And then he would go and get his drink and sit down in the corner with his little cup and drink and then get back on the. And wipe off the sweat from his forehead and skate some more. And I'm like, he didn't talk. I mean, what a loser, man.
Bobby Bones
I hate to call him a loser, because if he's not hurting anybody and that's the only time he can skate, what's he supposed to do? Were they inline skates?
Lunchbox
No, they were, like four wheels, retro, and they had, like, really looking fancy wheels and all black, like leather.
Bobby Bones
Did his presentation look losery?
Lunchbox
Just the fact that he was there by himself, like, yeah, but I don't.
Bobby Bones
Think that makes you a creep, because.
Lunchbox
I didn't say creep. I said loser.
Bobby Bones
Fine line. At a skating rink. You did say, there are kids there. You know, it's going to be a.
Lunchbox
Bunch of kids, and there's no need for you to go there zooming around like, oh, look at me, I'm a Billy Bat.
Bobby Bones
I'm going to go, not a loser. Oh, a little weird. But also, if that's what you enjoy doing and that's the only time you can go do it, dude. Go be you. Like, that's awesome. It's also brave to go do that because you're gonna have people go, what a loser.
Eddie
Eddie, I've seen it. I mean, I lunchbox. I'm with you. Where I saw it for the first time and be like, oh, my gosh, this guy is a loser.
Amy
Have we all seen the same guy?
Lunchbox
Or is it just you have secondhand embarrassment for them?
Eddie
But here's the thing. Here's the thing. The music's awesome. The lights are cool. The floor is smooth. There's really no other place. If that's your thing. There's no other place to go do that other than the skating rink.
Bobby Bones
He's probably got a job in the day. And so what, what night of the week?
Lunchbox
Friday night.
Bobby Bones
He's waiting all week long to go show off your skills. You have to go on a night where everybody's there. Yeah. Oh, don't worry.
Lunchbox
The limbo competition where there's all these little kids, you know, that don't know how to skate, trying to do the limbo. Don't worry, Mr. Professionals doing the limbo.
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And what do you get?
Lunchbox
What do you get a free coat from the concessions? They're like, come on, dude, let the kids have it. Like, what a lose loser. I mean, absolute loser.
Bobby Bones
I feel like if that was your skill, though, you would be doing that.
Lunchbox
I would go in the middle of the day when there's no one there.
Bobby Bones
I can't win a Coke in the middle of the day.
Lunchbox
Oh, my gosh. I was so. I had secondhand embarrassment. I was just like, this is so awkward. And I figure he does it every Friday. That's probably his Friday night thing for sure.
Eddie
Maybe.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. So two to two. Morgan, you can be the casting vote. Loser or not loser.
Amy
No, I think this is awesome, too. You have to go after things that you want to do, and not everybody's going to be about what you want to do. So this guy is just living his best life.
Lunchbox
Morgan, if you were single and some dude was like, hey, you're like, what do you like to do on Friday nights? He's like, oh, I go to the skating rink by myself. You would. You'd be out of there.
Amy
She's. I. I actually wouldn't because it's a hobby.
Eddie
Hold on, hold on.
Amy
No, no, no. It's a hobby. Guys, like, every. I would be more happy that you.
Bobby Bones
Have a hobby than in.
Amy
Instead him being like, I sit at home by myself. I don't have any friends. At least he's trying to get out there. At least he's trying.
Lunchbox
But he's not going to make friends at the skating rink.
Bobby Bones
Well, if he is trying to make friends, that makes him creepy. That's true. Those. I don't think he's a loser. I think it's. It's a bit of an unorthodox way to spend a Friday night as an adult, but what else you supposed to do if you've been skating your whole life?
Lunchbox
Go skate down the sidewalk, man.
Bobby Bones
No, it's not smooth. Not room. They don't have the dip by Freak Nasty playing over tops.
Eddie
No limbo competition.
Bobby Bones
No free cokes when you win limbo. So, yeah, you guys are all sk. Eddie said he went to the skating rink. It was a birthday party.
Eddie
Yeah, it was a birthday party. One of my son's friends was having a birthday party.
Bobby Bones
By the way, how did your body do?
Eddie
I didn't skate.
Bobby Bones
Oh, you didn't skate?
Eddie
No, I'm not touching skates anymore, dude. I'm not doing it. No. Oh, yeah, because I broke my arm the last time I was skating.
Bobby Bones
Got it.
Eddie
No, but we went and it was like, at 2:00'.
Bobby Bones
Clock.
Eddie
And the party ended, like, at 4. But my kids wanted to keep skating. We stayed till like, 8:30. Like, just skating. They were. They just kept skating because it's already paid for with a party.
Bobby Bones
So what's the question?
Eddie
So, okay, is it okay, like, to get invited to a party and then like, all right, party's over. But the tickets still work. So we stayed for another three hours.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I think that's fine. I think you're paying. Yeah. Whatever that payment was. No, but whatever the birthday party payment is, it's for a bit, to skate, Right? Yeah. Did you see the guy?
Eddie
I. I'm telling you, I've seen that guy. Every time I've gone. I don't know if it's the same dude, but.
Lunchbox
So there's multiple that go by themselves.
Bobby Bones
So they should all go together then. Not be losers. They should all become friends.
Lunchbox
It's just we. You're.
Amy
Maybe they are, but they just can't all go together.
Bobby Bones
It could be the same guy. I'd like to interview him.
Eddie
I bet he's cool.
Bobby Bones
I bet. I bet he's nice, right? Don't you think he's, like, super nice, probably involved in church.
Eddie
But. But Morgan's line, right?
Bobby Bones
I don't think for her she'd find that attractive. For her. But I don't also think that she can also think. That's not a loser, guys.
Amy
I bought roller skates to try and go.
Bobby Bones
I hate to have to be on their side. But he's like, I go roller skating every Friday night by myself, and here's how good I am. You'd be like, that's kind of odd.
Amy
It may be a little odd, sure. But maybe he's like, I've just been waiting to do stuff with somebody. Maybe she's spending my time. If she's already attracted to him, I.
Bobby Bones
Don'T want to make fun of him anymore. I don't even know him. I' I don't think Morgan was being honest with her answer.
Amy
I really was.
Bobby Bones
It's time for the good news with Bobby.
Lunchbox
Tell me something good.
Bobby Bones
Amy, have you seen a video of the older guy in the LSU band?
Amy
No.
Bobby Bones
It's been going around a little bit. So his Name's Kent. He's 66. He is now part of the LSU marching band. So he just joined. He's always loved it, wanted to do it. And he was an accountant, raised family. But you can still go to school at any point. Yeah, you can still be in the band. Like you have years. Like an athlete and so he relearned the Tuba after nearly 50 years. He trained physically by running about 25 miles a week. He used a weighted vest so he had the stamina for the marching performances. Last month, he auditioned alongside, well, much younger students, and he got the call. He's 66 years old. He is in the LSU marching band. Big shout out to Kent Broussard.
Amy
I feel like it's not too late for us. You know, we felt like we. We. We wish.
Bobby Bones
I don't. I'm good. I wish I would have in high school. I have no room for it now. I've already elevated past that.
Amy
Okay, well, I mean, high school's not an option, but college is. I'm just saying we could re. Enroll. Surely you don't have to take, like, a full semester's worth of classes.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I bet you do. But you have to be a student.
Amy
Yeah, I know, but can you just enroll in one class?
Bobby Bones
No, I think you have to have, like, at least nine hours. Oh, I know. I'm not sure about that. But to be an athlete, you do okay. And I would consider this in that same space.
Amy
Well, yeah, I mean, he had to train.
Bobby Bones
No, I'm talking about officially. Not that the two are the same. Good News Network with that story. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good, Bones. I'm gonna ask you the question, Amy, and then I'll read you the answer. But what do you think the unhappiest age is? You guys all think about this. What do you think the unhappiest age is? That we as Americans go through somewhere.
Amy
Around, like, when it's a midlife crisis time.
Bobby Bones
But I don't. Like.
Amy
What do you. You've told us before. We live to, like, 80 something, so cut that in half. Oh, my gosh. It's me. We supposed to be super unhappy right now. Yeah. 40.
Bobby Bones
What do you think it is, Eddie?
Eddie
I would say the same. I mean, I'd say 46. It's kind of what my age is now.
Amy
Oh, my. You're unhappy.
Lunchbox
It's a tough time.
Bobby Bones
Anything more you want to say about that?
Eddie
It's just hard right now, man. Like, I have four kids, and I feel like my whole life is just fixing whatever they're going through, and I'm extremely exhausted at the end of the day, and I'm just. There's no. There's no time for happiness. I'll say that.
Amy
Where's the lie? Where's the lie? He's not wrong.
Eddie
Okay, like, we're in the trenches right now.
Amy
Like kids. I love them.
Bobby Bones
I love them. We didn't question that. You did for the record.
Amy
But I would assume that this also applies to like there's some 40 year olds that don't have kids. So are they still experiencing midlife type things?
Bobby Bones
What would you tell people or what would you tell yourself about having kids at. If you could talk to yourself at 25. Oh, what, what advice would you give yourself about kids? Carefully.
Amy
They are, they will teach you a lot about your self. Get ready for all your wounds to come up because that will happen. If you're trying to parent well. Like, you'll realize like areas you need to work on. You're like, well, crap. So there's.
Bobby Bones
Would you still recommend your 25 year old self? You do it?
Amy
Yes. Because thankfully I got to work through some things and then it is a blessing and you do get to care for them. Mean. But they do have a lot, a lot of problems and there's a lot of work. But maybe that's because I adopted. I don't know. I think biological.
Eddie
I adopted too.
Bobby Bones
You got biological? Both.
Eddie
And I mean my biological kids are as hard. Like it's not, I don't. For me, in our family, it's not any different. Like yes, there are different issues, but my kids have different issues too.
Amy
Exactly.
Eddie
Same level, just different.
Bobby Bones
So what would you tell yourself at 25?
Eddie
Warning. Warning. Before you move on, you must know this.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. What would you say?
Eddie
It's going to be exhausting. You're not a bad person. It's just very hard.
Bobby Bones
Why?
Eddie
Because you feel that every day. You feel like, am I a good dad? I'm not a good dad. This is terrible. I got a bad day. Why did I yell at my kids? Why did I do this? Why do you ask yourself that question all the time? But remind yourself that you are a good person, you are a good dad. You're doing it for their own good.
Bobby Bones
Do you do that in a mirror? Yes. You are a good dad.
Eddie
Yeah. And you're gonna be broke.
Bobby Bones
Oh, there you go.
Amy
I think now, now that I'm thinking about it at 25, I would tell myself, before you have the kids, work through all your stuff, figure it out so that way you can be a better parent.
Bobby Bones
Think it's possible to work through all your stuff that I don't, I don't know.
Amy
Because you just don't. No, you're never going to work through it all. But I mean some of the stuff, if you could get it out of the way. But it just. I guess you kind of need the parenting experience for some of the stuff to come up, because otherwise it's suppressed and you don't know what's there. And then all of a sudden, yeah, you're. You're screaming and yelling, and you're like, why?
Bobby Bones
I saw a picture of Charlie Chaplin's son yesterday, and Charlie Chaplin was, like, black and white. 1920s, 30s, 40s, that time, that era. And his son is still alive because he had a son at, like, 73. Wow. And his son's old now. But then I look at that picture and go, that's me. I'm be. Charlie. Jacqueline. I'll be, like, 73. Because, you know. Older.
Amy
Yeah. Wiser, hopefully.
Bobby Bones
Nah, not really that much. That's not wiser. Learn different things. I'm really learning that.
Amy
Okay. On the flip side, kids, it's such a reward, too, like, watching them grow up. Like, I'm excited about the next chapter, like, getting through a lot of the kids stuff, and then them becoming adults and us being this family and for, like, kind of friends and, like, watching them achieve certain milestones, and it's just cool.
Bobby Bones
Well, I would have said 30 is the unhappiest age. Just for just briefly, because once you hit 30, that's like real adult. 30's like, ah, this sucks. Now I have to really be an adult. There's no more excuse to do stupid stuff anymore, because 30s, no more doing stupid stuff. Age. The. But I don't have kids, so I. You guys had a whole existential crisis on the Internet.
Lunchbox
I appreciate that.
Amy
We made it sound really nervous.
Bobby Bones
No, it's been really hard.
Amy
I think it's probably just ask us at any given season, it's probably just particularly this week feels hard.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So if you ask me, last week was tough too.
Amy
If you would ask me next week, I might be like, biggest blessing ever. I love it. It's so great. So it fluctuates.
Bobby Bones
If you're in your late 40s, there's a good chance you're not as happy as you used to be. Research has determined 47 is the saddest age.
Eddie
Dang, I'm right there.
Amy
I'm not even there yet.
Bobby Bones
Because you really start your midlife crisis. How fast life is going by. At 49, you've already come to the realization that you're starting to be viewed as old. They examine data from all the states, all the countries. So it's basically 47. That's from bottomline.org I had a real mortality crisis earlier this Week you did wasn't to do with kids. But it said I may never get to see an Arkansas Razorback football national championship.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So it's. We're all the same.
Eddie
Sorry, man.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, we're all. We're all the same. So we've been talking on the show about Lunchbox going to the Price is Right, and he got tickets for October 17th. And listeners that have been on the show are like, hey, you got this. Here are some tips. We gave him some tips. He's booked his flight, ready to go big. We're all excited.
Eddie
Oh, yeah.
Bobby Bones
Because there's a chance he could get on the show.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
We got some bad news.
Eddie
Oh, no.
Bobby Bones
Tell him this is not a bit. I promise you. This is not something we set up.
Amy
What happened?
Lunchbox
I don't know. I guess I got excited when I went to the Price Is Right website and my ticket to the Price is right is September 17th.
Bobby Bones
Taping for today.
Eddie
You have the wrong date.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's for today, the taping.
Lunchbox
No, no. I booked a flight for October, but then when I saw the tickets online, I got so excited, I was like, oh, they're finally available. They're finally available. And I was like, I got it. I'm going to la. Come on down. And then I was showing my wife and she was like, that says September 17th.
Bobby Bones
Oh, my gosh. So what do you do now?
Lunchbox
So now I'm waiting for the tickets to. I gotta get back out of there and try to get tickets. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So you don't have tickets for it now there's a chance you may not get tickets for it.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I wonder if you can reach out.
Eddie
To, you know, Price is Right and be like, yeah, I messed up. Like, can you please?
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
No, I couldn't even get an email back from them.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
To begin with.
Eddie
Dang it.
Bobby Bones
So he booked the wrong date.
Amy
Sorry.
Bobby Bones
Hey, Scuba, what do you think about this? He's an idiot.
Eddie
Not surprised.
Bobby Bones
Not surprised. Not surprised. Me. The same thing I would say I'm glad someone opened that door for me.
Eddie
Like double triple checking things and making sure it all makes sense and lines.
Bobby Bones
Up for anything harder than anything that's ever tracked in the history of time.
Eddie
Yeah, not surprised.
Lunchbox
Here's the deal. I'm not very good with details.
Bobby Bones
I'm not a smart man.
Lunchbox
I get caught up in the moment, I guess, and I just like. I mean, I remember back in the day when I'd get a test, I wouldn't read the instructions. I'd just fill out the test. And sometimes the Test would say, don't fill out any questions. Just hand this back in. I wouldn't know. I. I don't pay attention to details. I'm not detail oriented. And I got excited. I saw the 17th, I clicked on it, and I'm an idiot.
Bobby Bones
Would you play voicemail 5, please? Lunchbox on the Price is Right. Does he know that when he registers he has to use his real name? They're not going to put lunchbox on his tag, and they're not going to scream, lunchbox, come on down. They're going to use his real name. All right, have a good day, guys. Bye. Any thoughts on that?
Lunchbox
Yeah, I've understood that, but that's the price of fame, you know, if you want to make it big, sometimes you got to let that cat out of the bag. So if that does happen, I mean, that's what you got to do.
Amy
Okay. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You also got to get there on the day.
Lunchbox
Oh, my gosh.
Bobby Bones
That.
Eddie
That's happening. The tickets you buy.
Lunchbox
I mean, sometimes I worry, like, how do I make it in life?
Amy
In life.
Eddie
Yeah. So we worry about that because I.
Lunchbox
Don'T write anything down. I don't have a calendar.
Bobby Bones
You know, I mean, I think you. I think you should look at it the opposite way. You've made it very far, considering what you're dealing with.
Lunchbox
Yeah. I wonder if there's a disease I could claim.
Bobby Bones
I mean, you can claim any disease. No, no, but you've claimed a lot. Let's talk about his disease, a disorder.
Lunchbox
There you go.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Amy
He's had tuberculosis. That would be.
Eddie
That's a disease.
Lunchbox
That was rough.
Bobby Bones
Claim that one.
Lunchbox
That was nine months worth of torture.
Bobby Bones
What else have you had?
Eddie
Yeast infection in the mouth.
Lunchbox
Yeast infection in my throat.
Bobby Bones
Tuberculosis and yeast infection. Just. That has to. That has to be something together. Like, those powers combined have really affected you.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I think that's all I've had, though.
Amy
We have, like, chronic strep throat sometimes.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I do have strep throat. Hanging, banging, gets inflamed a lot.
Bobby Bones
So you don't know if you can get tickets to the 70s.
Lunchbox
Oh, not yet. I'm gonna. I'm gonna get back on. I'm. I. I feel like when I saw it, I was like, I don't even want to tell them. I can't tell them. She's like, but they expect you to go. And I'm like, yeah, but. Oh, my gosh. So, yeah.
Amy
Yeah, we've only been taking calls about it, and.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, we've only been doing a segment. A day for the past, I don't know, seven days. All right, let us know. This is not a bit, I promise to our listeners. This is not something I was told right before we went on the air that he booked it for the wrong day. And here's. Hey, here's my jaw staying exactly in place.
Eddie
Because you're not surprised?
Bobby Bones
Not at all. My jaw couldn't stay in the exact same place any better than it is just. Just me chilling. All right, so we'll update you. When do you. When will those tickets go up?
Lunchbox
They keep going up, like every day. Like they open new tickets. Oh, new time, new time, new times. I'm looking every day. And that's what I'm saying.
Eddie
They're right there right now. This is how terrible.
Bobby Bones
Oh my God, she sucks at doing it.
Eddie
They even have priority tickets for the 17th. They have a 7:30, an 11 and a 1:30.
Lunchbox
7:30 is early in the morning. Maybe we'll go with 11:30.
Eddie
Hey, the price of fame, man.
Bobby Bones
Exactly. Okay, let us know if you get tickets.

I'm going to assume that everybody messages their friends. I'm also going to assume that sometimes you run into issues when messaging, especially during group chats. It is really important that my digital messaging is clear. No Mistakes. It's also important when I send messages that they send quickly and that I get responses quickly. WhatsApp can help with all that. First, you can message privately with everyone in a group, even if you're using totally different phones. Sent a message too fast and you regret it? No problem. Just edit it. And when the chat gets a little too intense, you can switch to a group video call and actually talk it out. Photos and videos come through clear. Messages get delivered without gaps or delays. Plus, WhatsApp has so many great features like polls, pinned messages, even event invites with RSVPs. So planning stuff just doesn't turn into a big old mess. It just makes a lot of sense. It's time for WhatsApp message privately with everyone. Here's the question. This was once a common sound, but in the past year, only about 1 in 1,000 people have heard it. So I'm going to read it again. This was once a common sound, but in the past year, only about 1 in 1,000 of us have heard it. What is it? Let's play Never gonna get it.
Eddie
No, you're not gonna get it.
Bobby Bones
Never.
Eddie
Never gonna get it.
Bobby Bones
Not this time. No, you're not gonna get it. Never, never, never, Never gonna get it. All right, we have Brianna on the phone. Brianna, I'm gonna read the question, and the first round is you taking a guess at it. And the question is this. This was once a common sound, but in the past year, only about 1 in 1,000 of us have heard it. Brianna, what is the answer? Maybe the aol. That's pretty good.
Eddie
Dial up.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I would think. No, that's two different things.
Eddie
Oh, wait.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. But that's not aol. So what is your answer, Brianna? Maybe you've got mayo. Aol. Okay, that would be aol. That is incorrect. So that still leaves that dial up if you guys want to use it. Okay, Brianna. So next, Amy, Lunchbox, Morgan and Eddie, they're all going to take a guess here, and you get to pick two of them to represent you. If they get it right, you win. Who would you like?
Amy
I want Amy and Lunchbox.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Amy
Okay.
Lunchbox
Great pick.
Bobby Bones
Write your answers down, everybody. Good. Good. All right, Morgan, I'm coming to you.
Amy
I have home phone ringing. Most people had a home phone. Now only about one in a thousand probably do.
Bobby Bones
Nice. Nice way to incorporate the question. Dang. Okay, Eddie.
Eddie
Yeah. I, too, have a classic telephone ring.
Bobby Bones
Like a phone. Yeah. In the house.
Eddie
I got a phone in the house.
Bobby Bones
Wow. Solid. Amy.
Amy
Payphone sound.
Bobby Bones
Oh, what's a payphone sound? As opposed to a sound, Any sound.
Amy
You'd have a payphone. Like the payphone ringing or.
Bobby Bones
Okay, okay, lunchbox.
Lunchbox
I like where you guys head was at with the home phone. But people still have the home phone. But what they don't have is the answering machine.
Bobby Bones
Boom.
Lunchbox
No one hears the answering machine anymore because you call.
Bobby Bones
There is not one once a common sound, but in the past year, only about one in a thousand of us have heard it. You're all wrong.
Lunchbox
It's not answering machine.
Amy
So obviously we were thinking along.
Bobby Bones
You all were thinking the same area.
Amy
What's the category? Or the. Oh, we're still. We're still going to get.
Lunchbox
He never gives us clues.
Bobby Bones
You have a third round here.
Lunchbox
Have you ever played the game?
Bobby Bones
So Brianna, here's how this is going to work. So Brianna, you can pick yes, one of them will get it in the next round or no, none of them will get it. So basically you got four shots here to get it right. Or you can go, they're all dumb and they'll never get it.
Amy
I'm not going to say they're all dumb, but I will say that none.
Bobby Bones
Of them will get it. Okay, think about it again, guys. She has lost all faith in you.
Lunchbox
Read it one more time.
Bobby Bones
This was once a common sound, but in the past year, only about 1 in 1,000 of us have heard it. What is it? Wow.
Lunchbox
In the past year.
Eddie
Year.
Bobby Bones
That's huge.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I know. That's what I'm saying. Like I was thinking.
Amy
Okay, so once a common sound, but.
Lunchbox
In the past year.
Amy
This year I'm in.
Lunchbox
Whoa. Okay, show off.
Bobby Bones
Well, no, it was time. You guys have been waiting a long time. Need an answer, guys, five seconds. All right, time.
Lunchbox
Lunchbox the doorbell. Cuz people got a new doorbell. They got the ring camera is a weird sound. The common doorbell.
Bobby Bones
Why'd you guys sigh at that one?
Amy
Well, because I mean people still ring.
Bobby Bones
The doorbell, but no, you think no chance. It's doorbell.
Amy
It's just like not our ring doorbell.
Bobby Bones
Are you going on record to say no chances?
Amy
I'm not saying there's no chance, but.
Lunchbox
I guess I'm like Eddie, are you.
Bobby Bones
Going on record to say no chance?
Eddie
Do you know why I left?
Bobby Bones
Why? Because I too have the door.
Lunchbox
Dang.
Eddie
Because ring cameras. He's right.
Lunchbox
It's a different sound, man.
Eddie
The ding dong isn't there.
Amy
So like og doorbell sound.
Lunchbox
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Any ring of a doorbell, it comes in the house is the doorbell sound.
Amy
Okay, that's not it.
Bobby Bones
That's not it. No, they Missed it.
Amy
Yeah. Dang. That's also what I had.
Bobby Bones
Dang. Yeah. No chance. Amy, you could save Brianna.
Amy
Yeah. What do you have the sound of? Like, what did you write down?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, exactly. Eddie.
Lunchbox
Oh my gosh.
Amy
No, I put dvd. Like the sound of like a.
Eddie
The DVD going in.
Bobby Bones
You can't even explain the sound.
Amy
I know. Well, you were pressuring me for time, so I wrote down dvd.
Bobby Bones
I wasn't pressuring you. I gave you like five minutes.
Amy
Okay, dvd.
Bobby Bones
That's right.
Amy
Shut up.
Bobby Bones
An opposite. It's very wrong.
Eddie
What is it?
Amy
Well, obviously we don't have the category.
Eddie
Oh, it's dial. If I'm gonna kill someone.
Lunchbox
I'm trying, but I mean, what else could it be though?
Bobby Bones
Hey, Brianna, do you want to take one more guess? Because you have lost, but I'll give you one more shot at it. I have no idea. Had the.
Amy
I had ideas about the doorbell thing too, so I'm. I'm lost myself.
Bobby Bones
So I will give the answer, but we'll have Brianna play a different game.
Lunchbox
Wait, I think she said we wouldn't get it right. She won.
Bobby Bones
Oh, she won.
Lunchbox
She won.
Bobby Bones
Oh, dang.
Lunchbox
Wait, she said we would not get it right?
Bobby Bones
That's right.
Eddie
Yeah. She didn't believe in us.
Lunchbox
She had no fate.
Bobby Bones
Mostly people believe so. I'm shocked. Okay, Brianna, you're the winner. The answer is a telephone busy signal.
Amy
Thanks.
Bobby Bones
Thank you.
Amy
Love the show.
Bobby Bones
Thank you. There she is, Brianna. The one that doesn't believe in you.
Eddie
But a big winner.
Bobby Bones
But a big winner. That's correct. It's time for the good news with lunchbox.
Lunchbox
Tell me something good. Donna Moore was celebrating her 80th birthday last week at the Phillies game. Going, trying to get a foul ball for the first time in her life. Dream come true. In the fifth inning, a foul ball is coming towards her and it goes a couple rows over and a nine year old boy gets it dropped. But then word got to the 9 year old boy that this woman was celebrating her 80th birthday and she had always dreamed of getting a foul ball. And the nine year old went up and said, I want you to have this foul ball. He gave it to her.
Amy
Wow.
Eddie
Pretty cool.
Bobby Bones
I never will catch a foul ball because I don't want to get hit by the ball.
Eddie
If it comes straight to you, you're gonna move.
Amy
Yeah, just duck.
Lunchbox
Oh, it hurts.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I have no interest in hurting myself for a foul ball. It would be cool to get a ball if like one landed in the seat and it bounced around. You're like, oh, and then you picked it up. But now I'm gonna hide under.
Amy
But that's why you take a glove, right?
Bobby Bones
You can if you want. I'm not gonna take a glove. It's just too much work. I don't judge men that take gloves to ball games, but sounds like you do. No, I just don't want to carry a glove. I don't carry a wallet, much less a glove.
Amy
Okay, but Kit, you said men.
Bobby Bones
I don't care if men take a glove.
Eddie
I've taken a glove.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I don't care if men take a glove. Kids can take a glove. It's all good. I'm not gonna judge somebody at a ball game. Gotcha. But I don't want to take a glove. I don't want to take car keys. Like, I just want to show up with naked. That's the perfect. I just show up naked and have to have nothing.
Eddie
Sometimes you see a guy catch it with like one hand.
Bobby Bones
Oh, that's manly.
Lunchbox
It's crazy.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's tough. All right, there you go. Good story. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good. Wake up, wake up in the morning. It's trying to put you through. M's riding this week's next bit now. Bobby's on the mic. So you know what this is? This is the Bobby now. Time for the morning corny.
Lunchbox
The morning Corny.
Amy
Why did the cheese go to the gym?
Bobby Bones
Why?
Amy
To get shredded.
Bobby Bones
That was the morning corny. Lobby bone show. Bonehead story of the day.
Lunchbox
This story comes to us from Polk County, Florida. A 42 year old woman went to Target, got 66 items in her cart, filled it up, walks to the cash registers, walks right past the cash registers out to the parking lot, starts unloading the items into her car. When she's apprehended by security and she's like, what? They're like, you didn't pay for this, ma'.
Amy
Am.
Lunchbox
She goes, oh, sorry. I have this condition that, like, when it rains, I forget things. And so I guess I forgot to pay.
Bobby Bones
Oh, nice.
Amy
I have that. When it rains I get my joints hurt.
Bobby Bones
Nice. That works too.
Amy
So this is really a thing?
Bobby Bones
Prove their lying.
Eddie
You think it can be real?
Bobby Bones
Prove they're lying? No, don't think it's real at all. But it's different. I mean, gotta respect that.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day.
Bobby Bones
So Eddie came to us and asked us if we would sponsor him in the dyslexia 5k that I think he just saw on a sign in someone's yard, Right?
Eddie
Yeah, I saw it somewhere. They were promoting it on the side of the street.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
And I was like, that's me, dyslexic. I should run in this.
Bobby Bones
He was like, dyslexic, me that. We were like, yep, exactly. Yeah, that's you. So we thought it was kind of weird because he had no information about the race, and he wants us to sponsor him. So now he's coming in armed with information. What are we talking about here?
Eddie
Dude, we got some good sponsorships, and I think whatever you donate or do, whatever you pay for the sponsorship is going to really help this disease. People battle this disease in a really, really good way.
Bobby Bones
I don't think it's called a disease, though.
Eddie
It feels like it.
Bobby Bones
It's so bad.
Eddie
It's so bad. They're living with. Dyslexia has been terrible for me.
Amy
You didn't even know you had it till, like, a year and a half ago, and you're still living with it. Same here. I live with it, too, but I'm not, like, being dramatic about it. I'm like. For me, I felt relief, like, oh, this is why school was so hard. I get it now.
Bobby Bones
It's a disability.
Eddie
Yeah, sure. You can call it that.
Bobby Bones
No, no, it's literally.
Amy
Literally what it is.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Okay, so you want us to sponsor you? That's what we'd consider doing.
Eddie
Well, you sponsor the event, and I'm gonna be part of the event.
Bobby Bones
Wait, what do you mean?
Eddie
No, I want to sponsor you by sponsoring the event. You're sponsoring me because I'm dyslexic. So here is. Here's the big one, dude. If you donate $10,000, this is awesome. You become, like, the events named after you, the Bobby Bones.
Amy
Like, he would be the underwriter or something.
Eddie
Yeah, Your name would be under everything that says Race for Dyslexia.
Bobby Bones
What's everything?
Eddie
Bobby Bones signs. Sign it.
Bobby Bones
But who's doing it?
Eddie
Whoever the dyslexia company is.
Amy
Company? Yeah, Whatever organization is.
Bobby Bones
Okay, So I could. No, this is not just anything.
Eddie
And even more, you get to be interviewed by Miss Teen Nashville, and you get to promote whatever you want.
Lunchbox
Wow, that's.
Bobby Bones
Where do they put that interview?
Eddie
Yeah, I didn't say that. Okay, so you may be on. Live on stage, I would think.
Bobby Bones
Oh, so you want $10,000?
Eddie
I don't. When is the organization?
Bobby Bones
When is the race?
Eddie
It is September 27, I believe.
Bobby Bones
They don't have a Sponsor. It's in, like, 10 days.
Eddie
No, I mean, they. Maybe they do, but you can be a co. Sponsor.
Bobby Bones
Well, that would suck because you only get, like, 10 days of like. Like sponsorship. Okay, go ahead.
Eddie
Okay. There's one for $2,500. Lot cheaper. You can put your logo on the podium of where people start. You know, they start talking about the race at the event. That's kind of cool. And then you would pay for the registration for me and Amy.
Bobby Bones
Amy's in it.
Eddie
Well, why not? Amy, you're dyslexic. I think you should be a big part of this as well.
Amy
Well, so I have a fundraiser the night before for foster children, so I feel like I might be up late, and now I have to get up and run for dyslexia, which I want to support this. I. I do think being able to fund and provide resources for kids that have this is great. And that's what the cause is about. It's providing the tools and the resources and tutoring and all the extra things that they need to be able to manage school. Well, we're out of school.
Eddie
Well, that. Manage work, manage life, all that stuff.
Bobby Bones
Okay, what are the other options?
Eddie
There's a. There's one for cheaper. Fifteen hundred dollars. I think you can do this one. This one's kind of cool. You get your name on. Everyone's biblical. So you know the numbers that we all wear when we race.
Amy
Legit.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Sold out. Oh, just looked.
Eddie
Says three available.
Bobby Bones
Mike, do you see bib? Sold out. Looks like it's sold out.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Eddie
Oh, my gosh.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Eddie
If you want to be lame, you can do 750.
Bobby Bones
Lame. That's so much.
Eddie
Well, that's just the lowest that you can do. And that's. This will have your name at the water station.
Bobby Bones
You know, that's what you want.
Amy
I mean, water is important.
Eddie
It is during a race.
Bobby Bones
What do you want from us?
Eddie
I just. I wanted to lay out the options, and if you are able to help, that'd be cool.
Amy
Eddie, are you going, like, what are. What's the percentage you're actually going to this race?
Eddie
100%. I'm going to race in this race.
Amy
100%.
Eddie
But I can't really run. I have a plantar fasciitis, so I'll.
Bobby Bones
Probably end up walking.
Lunchbox
There we go.
Eddie
Which is still participating in the race. And my entry fee, $75. Our entry fee, Amy, is $75. If you want to pay that. That would be sponsoring me, I guess.
Bobby Bones
I feel like you would take the Money and then just go walk it and not Pay in profit. 75.
Eddie
No, no, no, no.
Amy
You have to register.
Eddie
You have to register. You can't just show up and walk.
Bobby Bones
It's $64. Yeah.
Eddie
Plus tax.
Bobby Bones
Plus tax.
Eddie
75.
Bobby Bones
Well, I'll think about it.
Eddie
Okay? Just take your time. Think about it. And just know that, man, we've been living. Amy and I have been living with this terrible, terrible disease for years. Just realized we had it, so we'd love to help people that, you know.
Amy
This just popped into my head, so I'm gonna say it. Okay. You know the event I have the night before for foster kids, there's an opportunity at Topgolf where they you pay like 700 or something, and it'll give a hundred tries of people in our group that are there to get a hole in one. And if they do, they win $10,000. How sick is that? You could be the sponsor of the hole in one.
Bobby Bones
Whoa, whoa, hold on. How much?
Amy
I think like $700 you make for it officially. Let me look. But around 700. And who, like all the attendees who paid to be there. And 100% of the money is going to a foster house here in town. Isaiah117 house. And they would get a shot to win $10,000.
Bobby Bones
I'm in for that one.
Eddie
If you do that, you got to do the water station at least.
Lunchbox
But wait, some purchasement gets $10,000?
Amy
I think so.
Lunchbox
That's awesome.
Amy
Let me look at the details.
Bobby Bones
I know you don't even have the details, but I'm in for that one.
Amy
Okay, cool. Sophie, the hole in one sponsored by Bobby.
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah, that's cool.
Amy
Because they get to come up to this one thing and they'll get 100 swings like. But we. Not one person. But anybody at the event would get a try because there's probably gonna be about 100 people there.
Bobby Bones
Okay, I'm in for that one.
Amy
Sick.
Bobby Bones
Just let me know.
Amy
Sick, sick, sick. Eddie, it's for foster kids. You wanna come?
Eddie
Yeah, I'd love to be there and. But I have a race the next day and Bone think about the donation for the dyslexia.
Amy
Come on. I'm just like, you guys are so stupid.
Bobby Bones
That's not even your real charity, dude. What do you mean, foster kids? You just saw it on a street. I did, I did.
Eddie
But sometimes you see God speaks to you in different ways. This way was a sign on the side of the street.
Amy
You're literally a foster parent. Or you were, and now you're adopted.
Eddie
I can go to that too.
Amy
We are dyslexic so I do see the need for it.
Eddie
Absolutely.
Bobby Bones
We're done for the day. Thank you. I'll have some information. Just let me know by tomorrow guys.
Eddie
You got it.
Amy

Other highlights include a debate on intervening in kids' fights, existential parenting reflections, the hilariously botched Price Is Right ticket saga, and a couple of “Tell Me Something Good” uplifting stories. All throughout, the show is rich in humor, missteps, and spontaneous, honest conversation.
