Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Bobby’s Ankle Surgery Woes

• [02:43] Bobby opens up about his severely painful recovery, admitting he underestimated the surgery. His foot and ankle pain has worsened, and he acknowledges pushing through work has taken a toll.

  • “My foot and my ankle is killing me. It is hurting so bad. There is no way I can hang out for a part two. It is, for some reason, getting worse and I don't think it's that I'm doing anything on it.” — Bobby [02:45]
  • Amy and Eddie both suggest Bobby should take time off, but Bobby feels responsible for keeping the show running.
  • “If we're not on, the show misses revenue goals… I don't miss. So if I do miss, you know I'm dead.” — Bobby [04:16]
  • He talks about relying on pain medication, poor sleep, and feeling mentally low:
    “My brain's messed up from all the pain pills. Like, it's totally jacked up.” — Bobby [05:02]
  • Bobby’s wife reminds him he deserves a break, especially as she manages pregnancy and household duties.

• [11:16] More on the surgery:

  • Bobby expected a quick recovery. The surgery involved scoping his ankle and patching a hole with cadaver cartilage:
    “I knew I'd have surgery but I thought I'd be back up and at 'em by Monday… Professional athletes get that done all the time.” — Bobby
  • Turns out, the pain and recovery are far tougher than he anticipated: “It hurts worse every night. I wake up in the middle of the night grabbing my knee, even though my knee doesn't hurt.”
  • Humbling moments, like needing his wife’s help for simple tasks, are hard for Bobby.
  • He jokes about his weight and lack of activity:
    “I put on 70 pounds in the past five days. No, I haven’t gotten on the scale…but that’s what it feels like.”

2. Amy’s Use of ChatGPT for Homework

• [05:20] Amy shares using ChatGPT to help her son Stevenson with homework, describing both the pros (getting step-by-step explanations) and the pitfalls (incorrect answers, especially with graphs).

  • The conversation pivots to the importance of limiting parental interference and how it relates to handling kids’ sports pressures today.
  • “Parents will be annoying. Parents will be so annoying. If I was trying to coach a team…they’ve just gotten so much worse.” — Bobby [08:04]

Amy’s Wild Basketball Game Experience

5. Anonymous Inbox: Friend Boundaries and Cheating

• [23:44] An anonymous listener asks for help: Her friend is cheating and wants to use her as an alibi. The friend gets angry when she refuses.
  • Amy, the show’s “boundaries expert,” advises detachment with love, not cutting off contact unless the friend keeps crossing lines.
    • “It doesn't mean you're never going to talk to her again. But you, you don't have to be a part of this at all.” — Amy [24:29]

  • “Got her!” — Bobby and Morgan [49:26]

[Amy]

You know that big bargain detergent jug is 80% water, right? It doesn't clean as well. 80% water. I thought I was getting a better deal because it's so big. If you want a better clean, Tide pods are only 12% water. The rest is pure, concentrated cleaning ingredients. Oh, let me make an announcement. Attention, shoppers.

[Bobby Bones]

If you want a real deal, try Tide Pods.

[Amy]

Stop paying for watered down detergents. Pay for clean. If it's gotta be clean, it's gotta be Tide Pods. Water content based on the leading bargain liquid detergent.

I sit down with musicians from all musical styles to play songs together in an intimate setting.

Nobody had to tell your grandparents not to drive while using their typewriters. Why should it be any different for us kids and our cell phones? Distracted driving was the cause of more.

[Eddie]

Than 3,000 deaths in 2022.

[Bobby Bones]

Come on, we're smarter than this. Let's put down the phones and focus on the roads. Drive safe, everybody. Don't drive distracted. A message brought to you by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Project Yellow Light and the Ad Council. People called them murderers. Ten years later, they were gods. Today, no one knows their names. A group of maverick surgeons who took on the medical establishment who risked everything to invent open heart surgery. Welcome to the wild west of American medicine.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so for everybody listening to the podcast right now, today, not doing a part two. So this is after we finished the show. We're recording this. We put this at the beginning of part one, but my foot and my ankle is killing me. It is hurting so bad. There is no way I can hang out for a part two. It is, for some reason, getting worse, and I don't think it's that I'm doing anything on it. And I do talk about my ankle again in the next segment, because that was the first segment of the day, but it is killing me.

[Amy]

I just thought of something. What day are we on? Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. So. Oh, I have heard Thursday. That surgery, like, when my daughter got her tonsils out, day five was the worst. The worst.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Amy]

They said, like, just plan for around day four, five, six.

[Bobby Bones]

But Is that a tonsil thing?

[Amy]

No, but it's. I think it's. It might be a surgery thing.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm telling you, it's killing me. And I tried not to make a big deal about it all day because it's not a big deal. People have worse surgeries than this all the time. And I told my wife that. I was like, I don't want to, like, complain about it all the time because she's, like, feeding the dogs, taking them out. And I was like, I don't want to be the whiner. She goes, a lot of people take off work when they have a surgery, correct? At least for a few days.

[Eddie]

I've been waiting for you to say that.

[Bobby Bones]

She was like, you're not taking off work. You're not missing anything. You're doing all your pot. You're doing everything. She was like, so give yourself a little bit of grace. So, yeah, it's killing me. I don't plan to miss any work. No, no, not in.

[Eddie]

I know, but Mike and I were talking about it the other day, like, maybe he should take a couple days off, you know, recover at least a couple days.

[Amy]

I know he's like, oh, this. These pain pills, my brain. But let's keep talking. Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

If we're not on the show, misses revenue goals. Like, if we don't have updated podcast files, if we don't. If we're not live, we can't have commerce. It's all of this that things like that I have to care about. And so I don't want to miss because it hurts all of us, so I don't miss. So if I do miss, you know, I'm Dead.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Or I have a really sore throat. Like, I'll come in with a sore throat, but, man, if it gets really sore, like, razor blade, like, when you get. What is this? Like, it's strep. Strep. That's it.

[Eddie]

That's the bad one.

[Bobby Bones]

I was gonna say sore throat disease, but strep throat. Yes. Strep is the bad one.

[Amy]

I thought you were trying to think of something way more complicated than strep.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I can't. My brain's messed up from all the pain pills.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, it's totally jacked up, so it's eggs, but that's what's up. And I think it's also the not getting good sleep and the pain pills and all of that, but, yeah, there will be no part two today. What'd you do last night?

[Amy]

Helped Stevenson with some homework. And by that, I mean I took pictures of it, loaded it into my chat GPT and made sure he got it right.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I wouldn't trust that. ChatGPT is not always right.

[Amy]

No, this was. I. I checked the work, if that makes sense. Like, But I needed. So what I do to give you full, like, explanation of how I do it, I'll say, and tell me exactly how you got this answer, so that way I can see the work I need to do, and then I'll go check it. Because, yes, it did get one wrong once. And I was like, what?

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Amy]

How did you not read the graft correctly? And I had to take pictures of it because there are graphs and charts. I mean, it's a little more complicated, but, yeah, he ended up getting them. All right.

[Bobby Bones]

One thing you can do to chat gbt, which is weird.

[Amy]

What is?

[Bobby Bones]

You can ask it a question and have it give you multiple answers. You can say, like, here's eight questions, and then say, hey, fact check yourself. And sometimes it'll fact check itself and go like, yeah, sorry about that.

[Morgan]

I was wrong.

[Eliot Khani]

Whoa.

[Legal Expert]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, when it's done yourself the first time.

[Eddie]

Yeah, you should be perfect.

[Amy]

It always will admit, because it'll give multiple. Like, Stevenson had multiple choice. And then the answer it gave me wasn't one of the multiple choice. And I'm like, that's not an option. And then I sent a picture of all four options. Oh, my goodness, you're right. Oh, yeah. Let me take a closer look at that. And then. And now my chat GPT written voice is Bobby's assistant. It's in my head. Like, whenever I'm reading, you're doing.

[Bobby Bones]

You do an impression of it, too.

[Amy]

I just did it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Like, you don't mean to. I think sometimes I think you just want to be her.

[Eddie]

Maybe you do like her.

[Amy]

I mean, maybe I do. Well, between Bobby talking to her all the time and then her in my head all the time, and then my daughter's therapist sounding like her, I'm like, okay, she's everywhere.

[Bobby Bones]

What'd you do?

[Eddie]

We had a meeting. We had a meeting, like, an athletics meeting, which is weird. My son made the basketball team in middle school, so I thought it was just gonna be a meeting for the team. But no, it's the whole. The whole athletic department talking about how, like, they have a doctor if you need a doctor if someone gets hurt, what to do if you get her, all that kind of stuff, which was the first time I've ever done that. That was kind of fun.

[Bobby Bones]

So they have, like, insurance.

[Eddie]

They do. And they have, like, a special doctor that, if you go. They work with all the kids that go to that school.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow. Yeah. Congrats to your son for making it.

[Eddie]

Yeah, dude. He's so excited.

[Bobby Bones]

It was one of those tryouts where Eddie couldn't go, where they had to, like, you know, newspaper the windows, which was.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Like, no parents allowed. And they said, no peeping. I'm like, well, that's weird.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

So I could say they mean right.

[Bobby Bones]

Then or at all. Like, you had to stop your peeping at night just in the neighborhood?

[Eddie]

No, just right then. But I think I know why they did that, though, because they set the example of, like, you can't go to the tryouts. So now that they're having practices, no parents are going. Cause they're just like, well, I guess I'm just not invited, so. Because I haven't even thought about going. And I would normally go to practices just to kind of hang out and watch.

[Eva Longoria]

Yeah.

[Amy]

That's the hard.

[Bobby Bones]

Parents will be annoying. Parents will be so annoying. If I was trying to coach a team. And they've just gotten so much worse.

[Eddie]

Yes. Have they? Like, I thought about that. Like, I wonder if, like, we just didn't notice because we were kids.

[Bobby Bones]

I would think they've gotten worse because social media has made everyone louder. Just generally speaking.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Cause parents are bad, dude. The trouble in Sports Lunchbox.

[Bobby Bones]

What'd you do last night?

[Morgan]

We watched some tv. Hung out at the house. Let's see. What else do we do? That was it. Nothing really exciting. Watched an episode of reality TV that no one, you know, cares about. But, yeah, that's it. That's all we Did.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, Morgan, you did that video and you were cooking something. I don't even know what you were cooking, but it was like sweet potatoes or something.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah. Well, I've made a few different things.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I saw one pop up, and there's something that people say whenever they're about to eat something. Like if a chef drops something off, nobody say it.

[Morgan]

Okay?

[Amy]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Bone apple teeth is how I said it.

[Legal Expert]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So here's.

[Eddie]

What did she say?

[Bobby Bones]

Were you joking or did you say it wrong?

[Amy]

No, I was joking. Cause it's Bon appetit is how you say it. But people online, like, it's this huge meme where you say bone apple teeth instead.

[Bobby Bones]

I believe you then. Cause so many listeners were messaging me going, we're on Team Eddie on Lunchbox. She doesn't know how to say bon appetit. And so I pulled the. No, I agree with you. Will you play that?

[Amy]

Ray, dump that little egg mixture over the pan and lock it in. Throw it in the oven for 40ish minutes on 400, give or take, really, until it's all cooked. Bone apple teeth.

[Eddie]

Bone apple teeth.

[Amy]

I mean, if I had seen that, I would have probably thought she thought that's what it was.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah, my DMs were blowing up.

[Amy]

I didn't know that was a funny meme, but now I.

[Eddie]

It's kind of funny now.

[Amy]

I get it.

[Bobby Bones]

If it's not a funny meme and she made that story up on the fly.

[Amy]

Genius.

[Bobby Bones]

Even better.

[Eddie]

Do it. Start it. Now it's a meme.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, if she's like, oh, I just realized it was wrong and she made that up. But, yeah, okay, that would be something.

[Eddie]

A very highly intelligent person would do.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, that's what everybody was hitting me up going, I don't know if she's highly intelligent, but it was. It's all a joke.

[Eddie]

So maybe she is so.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I don't think it means she is anymore, but it doesn't mean she's not.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Does that make sense?

[Eddie]

No, but whatever.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Everything's not that serious, you know, I was just trying to be funny, I guess.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, it worked.

[Amy]

I should be careful.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it worked. Hey, iyk. Yk. You know.

[Amy]

Yeah, exactly.

[Eddie]

I know what that means. If you know, you know.

[Bobby Bones]

That's it. Okay, here is today's podcast again. Apologies. There'll be no part two. We'll be back tomorrow, obviously. And that's all. Enjoy today's show.

[Eddie]

Here we go.

[Amy]

Come on, Bobby.

[Bobby Bones]

Transmitting across America. Turn it up.

[Amy]

This is the Bob.

[Bobby Bones]

What's up, everybody? Welcome to Wednesday show Morning studio. Morning. So late last week, I had surgery on my ankle. I did not respect it in any way. I knew I'd have surgery, but I thought I'd be back up and at them by Monday. And I really told my wife. I was like, I'm not gonna need any help. Like, I'm gonna go in. It was two simple things they were doing. They were gonna scope my ankle, no problem. Professional athletes get that done all the time. And then they were going to patch up a hole with cadaver cartilage.

[Amy]

No professional athletes have to do with any of this.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm basically that, okay, who won MVP of the celebrity softball game? You did MLB All Star Weekend last year. Yep.

[Eddie]

Never forget it.

[Bobby Bones]

Correct.

[Eddie]

Who won Dancing with the Stars and.

[Bobby Bones]

Got paid, which makes me a professional Bobby.

[Morgan]

Yes.

[Amy]

Alrighty. Anyways, carry on.

[Eddie]

Well.

[Bobby Bones]

And I told my wife, no issues. Like, I want to be back up. Like, I'll be in a cast for, you know, a week, a week and a half. Then it moves to a boot. But don't worry about me. She's like, I don't think that's the case.

[Amy]

Speaking of your wife, I texted her after the surgery to check on you and how it went. And this is her reply.

[Bobby Bones]

You're telling me this, like, five days later?

[Amy]

Well, it hasn't come up. Okay, now. Now it's a good time.

[Eddie]

Okay, go ahead.

[Amy]

It's fitting. I said, you know, how did it go? Blah, blah, blah. She said, it went well. He's recovering, but I think the recovery will be longer and more of a process than he was expecting.

[Bobby Bones]

If it sucks, it is. It's the worst. I really. I didn't want to burden her. She's also pregnant, and we have dogs, and it sucks. And it hurts. And it hurts worse as the week goes along. I thought it would be the opposite. I thought, like, it hurts the most right after it's done. It's hurt worse every night. And I wake up in the middle of the night, like, grabbing my knee, even though my knee doesn't hurt. I can't grab my foot, my ankle, because it's got a cast on it. And so I'm laying here with, like, bags of frozen broccoli and corn on my legs because I don't want to go and redo an ice pack because I don't want to ask my wife to do it. Like, so much humility, because I'm having to. Like, my wife had to help me put a bag on my leg. To take a shower. And I'm like. I'm just there. Grub wormed. Like, she's. She's right there next to me, helping me strap the bag on. It's.

[Eddie]

It.

[Bobby Bones]

The highlight of my day yesterday was my wife going, do you mean to take you on a drive?

[Eddie]

Oh, that's nice.

[Amy]

Oh, to see the.

[Bobby Bones]

The world. Anything. Just to get out. Because I haven't done anything but lay in the bed and occasionally move to this chair.

[Amy]

Leaves are changing.

[Bobby Bones]

It's.

[Eddie]

I can picture you just looking out the window, like, looking at the leaves, the trees.

[Bobby Bones]

You know what we did? We drove to Sonic down the road. I got me a water, and we drove back home.

[Amy]

Cute.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's terrible. I didn't respect it. I still needed to get it done. I'm glad I got it done, but it sucks. I just thought it would be nothing. I thought it would be nothing.

[Amy]

It's weird. You thought a surgery with cadaver.

[Bobby Bones]

I thought it would be.

[Amy]

Would be nothing.

[Eddie]

Hole in your foot, all that stuff.

[Bobby Bones]

I thought it would be nothing.

[Eddie]

Did you apply for a handicap pass?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think I'm handicapped for long enough to get the pass.

[Eddie]

All right, just checking.

[Bobby Bones]

So that's where my life is right now. Like, not the greatest place. I just lay there all day.

[Amy]

They're not the worst.

[Morgan]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

It could be the worst. Like, mentally, I'm in a pretty terrible place.

[Amy]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah. It's.

[Eddie]

I'm.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm at the worst. The worst.

[Amy]

So.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Amy]

But this too shall pass.

[Bobby Bones]

It will.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah.

[Eddie]

It's just a season.

[Bobby Bones]

They say 40 is the new 60. And you think it would be the opposite. People in their 40s feel like they're in their 60s because their bodies are breaking down earlier than they thought they would.

[Eddie]

Amen, brother.

[Bobby Bones]

I surprised it. Well, I think it's because people younger. I should say younger. Younger, getting older go harder than they used to go. Oh, 25, 30 years ago. Like 40 year olds now go harder than 40 year olds 40 years ago. Therefore, we go harder.

[Amy]

In what way?

[Bobby Bones]

And always, like, physically.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Even, like, play sports with the kids.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, I work out as hard now as I ever have. My entire. Well, not right now because I can't do crap. I'm freaking miserable.

[Amy]

Yeah, but. But I mean, you're an athlete, so basically professional.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Yeah. A new survey said that 2,000 adults find that most people are feeling some serious aches and pains as early as their early to mid-40s. The average person says their nose began to Dull. I think that's. Is that smell?

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Around 46. I don't have that yet. Ankles will start to weaken around 47.

[Eddie]

That's you.

[Bobby Bones]

I remember hurting my ankle, like, a year and a half ago, and it's just gotten worse. I remember it now. I didn't remember it forever, and I remember it going like this.

[Eddie]

Do you remember the play?

[Bobby Bones]

Absolutely. I was at my friend Brett's house playing pickleball, and I went to the left and my ankle went like this. And I was like, not ain't nothing. I just kept going. I kept going for a year and a half. Is the word so stupid. Just get it fixed if it hurts. And then your metabolism slows in your late 30s, into your 40s. So all of that and then if you get injured, like, another bad part about this injury is, is that I can't exercise at all. So any food just chills. Like I'm eating and it just hangs.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I can't even, like, move to exercise it. I put on £70 in the past five days. I put on £70.

[Eddie]

Oh, wow.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I haven't got on a scale to make to confirm that. That's what it feels like. Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah. That's what it feels for women. About once a month when we're on our period or something. Like hormone stuff. No, but it's like you just feel like suddenly a beached whale and you can't explain it, but you're just like, oh, it's just this whole feeling. So that's probably similar to what we have going on.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm having my ankle period right now.

[Amy]

Your ankle period? Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

Spoiler alert for Dancing with the Stars. Last night, Andy got voted off.

[Eddie]

Oh, no.

[Morgan]

How?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, eventually, the people who really can't dance get voted off. I think I'm the only person to actually win the show that wasn't a good dancer, like, because there's always, like, somebody who represents the common man. But I think I'm the only common man to actually win the show.

[Amy]

Yeah. And maybe after they saw that happen, they're like, not let this happen again. People were so. I mean, obviously you had so many people voting for you, but then, like, the hardcore fans, weren't they the ones that were like, what, he can't even dance?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. But you can't vote somebody off a show.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So you have to let there be just a few people, and then all the votes have to gravitate to those few people. But Andy was voted off. But watching back. I've been doing a series watching Back all my dances. I really wasn't as bad as even I thought I was because I was at least somewhat athletic, where some of these people that are like, they're a bad dancer, they're like Bobby Bones, they can't even move.

[Eddie]

And that's insulting.

[Bobby Bones]

And mostly I just would go along with it because I'm like, yeah, they got a point. But, like, I was watching my back. Like, I'm jumping off tables, I'm jumping over Sharna. And sure, I didn't have any dance background, but completely different. I wasn't as good of a dancer. But even the people I was up against in the final four, of the. The four, I think I was probably the second most athletic. But anyway, I was sad for Andy. I didn't think he would win. I still think Robert Irwin wins. Last night, they had a bunch of the people that had been on the show. I was invited. I didn't get to go because I had ankle surgery, but I had so many people, they're like, why didn't you go? Did they kick you off the show again? No, I just couldn't go. And then my doctor was like, hey, if you fly, there's a decent chance or at least a not zero chance that you get a blood clot in your ankle.

[Amy]

Yeah, you can't risk that.

[Bobby Bones]

So I would have. I think my wife is the one who talked me out of going, the reasonable one. She was like, the doctor said you could get a blood clot. I said, but he didn't say it was probable. He said it was possible. And so that's what's up.

[Eddie]

So how many people are left?

[Bobby Bones]

Like five, maybe.

[Eddie]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

And I think there's a couple weeks left. I don't know. I won't watch anymore. Once a common man leaves and he's gone, I'm out of there. And also, I really couldn't watch it last night. I had to watch it in clips because I have YouTube TV and I still don't have any Disney channels, like Disney properties like abc, espn. It sucks.

[Eddie]

Dang.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's end this.

[Eddie]

They're still fighting, huh?

[Bobby Bones]

This is one of the great standoffs of all time. This. It's crazy. I know ESPN at all. So college game day, I can't watch no college football. And then on Monday nights, I can't watch Dancing with the Stars, so I have to go and watch the clips on Twitter and then hit DWTS to see who gets kicked off right when they get kicked off. So you don't.

[Morgan]

You don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't know. Heartache.

[Amy]

Yeah. Well, between your ankle and YouTube.

[Bobby Bones]

Yep. Well, YouTube TV.

[Amy]

Oh, YouTube TV.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. You don't have YouTube TV?

[Amy]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

What live. What live do you have if you're watching television at your house? Hulu Live, or do you not have live tv?

[Amy]

I have live TV because we can watch some games. So this is a problem in my relationship because I have very little access to sports. So. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

What do you have?

[Amy]

Hulu. Hulu Live.

[Bobby Bones]

You have Hulu Live, so you have all access to everything?

[Amy]

It's not everything. Maybe I have, like, half life.

[Eddie]

I don't think she knows what she has.

[Bobby Bones]

I think Amy has an antenna on her TV and also Hulu, and she thinks that's live. All right, so that's what's up.

I've gotten lots of text messages from him. This one's from a little bit better.

[Eva Longoria]

Of a version of him because he's feeding himself well.

[Amy]

It's always a concern, like, are you eating well? He's actually an amazing cook.

[Bobby Bones]

There was this one time where we.

[Amy]

Had neighbors and I saved their dog and I ended up inviting them over for food.

[Bobby Bones]

And that was, like, one of my proudest moments.

[Amy]

Ancient Athenians used to scratch names onto oyster shells and they called these ostracon to vote politicians into exile.

[Amy]

No, the America.

[Bobby Bones]

El Golfo de Mexico continuing forever and ever.

[Eva Longoria]

It blows me away how progressive Mexico was in this moment. They had land reform, they had labor rights, they had education rights. Mustard seeds were so valuable to the.

Ancient Egyptians that they used to place.

[Morgan]

If there's a question to be.

[Bobby Bones]

Hello Bobby Bones. My best friend, who's been married for four years, recently admitted she's been having an affair and keeps coming to me for advice on how to keep it hidden. I told her I don't want to be involved, but she keeps pushing and has even asked if she could use me as an excuse to cover her tracks. When I refused, she got angry and said I was judging her and abandoning her. When she needs support, my husband says I should go. No contact. But I hate to give up on a 20 year friendship. What should I do? Signed Friend of a Cheater. I'm Gonna go to our boundaries expert here in the room. Amy.

[Amy]

Yeah. I don't know that it's like full on, no contact, but you don't have to participate in this. And I think if she can't respect that, then yeah, I mean, maybe backing off is the answer. It doesn't mean you're never going to talk to her again. But you, you don't have to be a part of this at all.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think you owe it to her.

[Amy]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

To be put in an uncomfortable situation.

[Amy]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

It's very selfish of her. That is not what a good friend would do.

[Amy]

Yeah. And I think it's clear she's going through something. So she's not thinking clearly and she. So that's why she's also treating your friendship this way. Because if she had a healthy perspective, like, she wouldn't put you in this situation to begin with.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So I don't mind no contact if it's like the third option. You talk with her. And I don't know that you have to be the person that goes, hey, maybe you shouldn't cheat because you don't know the dynamics of that relationship. Or maybe you do, I don't know. But that ain't your job. She didn't come to you for that job.

[Amy]

Yeah. And I didn't mention it. I think too, like, for her to be like, I feel like you're judging me when maybe you haven't even done that. But that's her.

[Bobby Bones]

No, she's judging.

[Amy]

I know, but she probably is judging herself.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Amy]

As well.

[Bobby Bones]

Total projection.

[Amy]

So there's. Yes. A little projection happening. And if you have the healthy conversations and set the boundaries and then she can't respect it, then like you said, it's like the second or third.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, Second. Like, hey, I want to be your friend, but I can't be your friend for this specifically. So I want to not be involved in this part. And then if she can't respect that, then I think it's no contact. And that sucks because that's not what a good friend does. But I will say this, that all people go through weird seasons. If you can just get through this season with her and be someone that she leans on for support because it's about the s. Is about to hit the fan with this.

[Eva Longoria]

Yeah.

[Amy]

And I think no contact is what probably sounds really harsh. So something that might be helpful is like detachment with love.

[Bobby Bones]

That's a euphemism for no contact.

[Amy]

Well, it's just a. It's.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a nicer way to say.

[Amy]

I've used in therapy a lot. Like when you have to detach from somebody, but you can detach with love. You know, it doesn't have to be this harsh, dramatic, horrible thing. It's hard for you because for 20 years this person has meant a lot to you. But if you know a boundary is detaching with love, I'll say again, it's.

[Bobby Bones]

Probably just a weird season in her life. Try to be there and support her. Not her decisions, but support her through it. And what's gonna happen after? Because it's about to get bad. Yeah, it's gonna suck for everybody. So, yeah, don't throw away a 20 year friendship. But also, if she won't stop, then you gotta stop. My favorite Miley Cyrus song. If she won't stop.

[Amy]

You know, also, when you detach with love, you're leaving space to reattach with love.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, Amy with the words. Amy is our boundary expert. That she knows what to say. All right, there you go. Close it up, Bones. Add the list of the most dangerous tick tock challenges. So a law firm did this. Which ones do you know of? I wonder what comes to mind when I say these challenges. What are they?

[Amy]

This one's old, but the first thing in my mind was Tide Pods.

[Bobby Bones]

It's number two overall. Okay, the Tide Pod Challenge. The. It's so funny, because they do look good. Yeah, they do look like a quite a scrumptious morsel, if I do say so. They're not, though, and you shouldn't. And the whole thing had people eating or biting into laundry pods to get a bunch of social media likes. It can lead to chemical burns, seizures, trouble breathing, poisoning, which accounted for 71% of the 35,000 emergency room visits.

[Amy]

Oh, my.

[Bobby Bones]

Because. And that's just people who claimed it. Because I'm telling you, if I go in for the Tide Pod Challenge, I'm not telling them. That's what I'm doing. I'm telling them.

[Amy]

Well, they're going to know when you're bubbling from the mouth.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. But I'm going to say, I don't know. I'm going to make up a story. So that's. Yes, that's number two. Eddie, can you think of any?

[Eddie]

I mean, the Ice Bucket Challenge.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, that's a good one. That was for ALS Research Lunchbox.

[Morgan]

I don't know what it was called, but I saw Sean Johnson doing it with, like, her high heel on the Edge.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that was a good one. Like the Cardi B. I don't know.

[Morgan]

What it's called, though.

[Bobby Bones]

That one did not make it, I think. Probably because that's a newer one.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah, I saw a woman that broke her back.

[Bobby Bones]

Good one. So at number five, the Benadryl Challenge.

[Eddie]

Never heard of that one.

[Amy]

What is that?

[Bobby Bones]

It has people taking between 12 and 14 Benadryl pills. What? To make them hallucinate and film the reactions. Taking that much antihistamine comes with complications like seizures, heart problems, coma, and death. I really feel like you shouldn't take 12, 14 of anything like this. General. Even cookies. You shouldn't even have any cookies. And you're not even going to overdose on that.

[Amy]

I never heard of that one.

[Bobby Bones]

But that's a number five. Number four, the Fire Challenge. Since this one involves putting small amounts of rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer on the body, then lighting it on fire.

[Eddie]

What on earth?

[Amy]

I'm kind of glad this isn't my algorithm.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, this is an older one, but still. Because what kids know and what they think is if they put it on their skin, the alcohol, it'll just burn that off. It won't burn their skin. The problem is it can burn your skin. It can burn through it. So people go in for burns, infection. People even died from it. And number three, everybody's gonna remember this one. I got many laughs. I never did it. I always thought it was funny, though. The milk crate Challenge.

[Amy]

What do you do with it?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, you stack the milk crates up to walk over them without it falling.

[Eddie]

Oh, I do remember this one. Yes. That's about two years ago, maybe.

[Better Picks Advertiser]

Hilarious.

[Bobby Bones]

I remember that People would, like, break their ribs. They would, like, climb. They'd make, like, a pyramid and try to climb it because it was so unsteady, and they would fall. So There were over 8, 000 emergency room treated injuries. Most popular with kids 15 to 18. Concussions, broken bones. Oh, even a couple paralyzed people. They would stack milk crates into a pyramid, try to climb.

[Amy]

Oh, that's terrible.

[Bobby Bones]

You've never seen it. You'll laugh out loud.

[Amy]

I'm sure I will. But now I'm gonna struggle laughing, knowing that some people I know paralyzes itself.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a struggle, but you still get through it. Okay, you shouldn't do it. It's bad because you can get hurt very easily. Number two is Tide podcast. And then number one is the Blackout Challenge. Popular with 10 to 14 year olds. It involves depriving yourself of oxygen until passing out with the goal of experiencing a brief euphoric state. Did you guys ever do. Because Back in the day, I never did it, but other kids did it where they would, like, they would choke themselves. Yeah, yeah.

[Eddie]

Yep, yep.

[Bobby Bones]

100 people have died from it, including a 12 year old boy. Oh, my gosh, Mike, you guys blackout. Challenge it. Yeah, we did that. Yeah, pretty bad.

[Amy]

But, but, but like, if you're holding your breath, that's the challenge also you.

[Bobby Bones]

Can do like, hands on the, like.

[Amy]

Oh, so someone's helping you usually have.

[Eddie]

A buddy helping you.

[Amy]

Okay. Because I'm like, if you're holding your breath, like, my body, you know, starts to, like, makes me stop from holding it because I'm trying to save myself.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's more of like a, like a pressure and like a push. Right?

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, in the back of the bus. Classic bus stories, man. But, yeah, those are the most dangerous TikTok challenges. Read that New York Post. It's time for the good news with Bobby. A dentist in Mesa, Arizona, offers free dental care to veterans in recognition of Veterans Day. Does it every year. He did this yesterday. Dr. Sean Monahan of Monahan Dentistry and Implant center cleared his entire schedule yesterday for Veterans Day to provide services like cleaning, fillings and cancer screenings to vets all day at no cost.

[Amy]

Nice.

[Bobby Bones]

Last year, the practice provided more than $30,000 worth of free dental services on this day. And obviously this just happened, so they don't know this year, but they expect it to be even bigger. So big shout out to Dr. Monahan and his wife Natasha. They come from military families with ties to the Air Force, army and Marines. And I think this is a really awesome thing. That's from 12 News. That is a great story. That is what it's all about.

[Better Picks Advertiser]

That was.

[Bobby Bones]

Tell me something good, bones. Amy, what happened at the basketball game you went to?

[Amy]

So it all started with, you know, kids playing basketball on the court. Everything's going fine. But then there was some aggression between my boyfriend's son and this one player where he just pretty much body slammed him to the ground.

[Bobby Bones]

Opposite teams.

[Amy]

Yeah, opposite teams. And you saw people in the stands. I happened to be walking in at that time, but you saw people in the stands. Like, I was like, what are they reacting to? Because parents were like, oh. Like, there was a reaction. And we look over and we're like, oh, my God. Well, then the coach makes the decision to pull his player out of the game, to bench him.

[Bobby Bones]

The aggressor.

[Amy]

Yes. That coach was like, okay, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you sure he was the aggressor or was somebody who responded to aggression?

[Amy]

No, he was the aggressor yeah. And the coach pulled him out. He was put on the bench, which was a row of chairs. And in response to him getting pulled out of the game, he picked up a chair and threw it into the bleachers.

[Bobby Bones]

Nice. No, that's a kid.

[Amy]

No, a middle schooler.

[Eddie]

But he didn't hit.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, the.

[Eddie]

Oh, the kid did it.

[Bobby Bones]

I thought coach did it, but that's not cool either.

[Amy]

No, either way. Instantly, I felt terrible for the kid.

[Bobby Bones]

The kid threw a chair into the bleachers.

[Amy]

Into the bleachers. And then. And then another parent near me. He's like, okay, that kid needs to go. And I mean, she was a parent from that team. And I was just thinking, yes, he does need to go. But I'm like, okay, wait, where are his parents? Like, because the tournament person was like, we're.

[Bobby Bones]

You're.

[Amy]

You're out. Like, and they escorted him out of the gym. And my heart broke from him because clearly he's got stuff going on and he. I hope at this age, if he's responding to disappointment and anger or something in that way, like, we can get a handle on it before he gets any bigger or more hormones kick into play. Because I just felt terrible for him and he left. But it's crazy. I've never seen anything like that. Who won the game that our team.

[Bobby Bones]

Was that player good?

[Amy]

I don't know. I. I don't know. I barely saw. He got kicked out right when I got there.

[Bobby Bones]

Really?

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So you can't be throwing stuff into the crowd.

[Amy]

And. And then my boyfriend was glad that he kind of got up and was like, letting me in because he sort of missed because he was walking towards me to be like, hey, we're sitting up here. And like, his dad was up at the top of the bleacher, so he saw the whole thing. But my boyfriend's like, I'm so glad I didn't see him, like, body slam my kid, because that.

[Bobby Bones]

Was he gonna fight some kid? No, but I think that would have been hilarious.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy's boyfriend jumps into the court to beat up a kid.

[Amy]

No, he wouldn't. He has really good self control, but I mean, that would just be hard to see. And his son was fine and he talked about it later and he was kind laughing at it. He was like, no, it's fine. But I just thought, gosh, a middle school kid like that, that's some. We have some anger management. We need to hopefully get under control.

[Bobby Bones]

I went to a game and I saw a coach. This is during A basketball game. And it is a coach. And luckily it wasn't at the crowd. But he didn't like the call. So this scorekeeper who's running like the, you know, getting board and stuff, he takes her drink and throws them on the court.

[Amy]

Oh, God, my life. And then it has to get cleaned up.

[Eddie]

Somebody has to clean it up, like.

[Bobby Bones]

Her Stanley, like mug. He takes it and throws it and it. And it goes boosh. And I say it like right in the middle of the game. Oh, man, it was the wildest thing I've ever seen. And that wasn't a parent. Usually you think of parents being crazy or even kids fighting.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

But it was a, it was a high school girls game and he didn't like the call and he takes it just chunks onto the court. I've never seen anything like that before. Craziest thing you ever saw at a game, Eddie.

[Eddie]

Well, when Amy was talking, it made me think of one of my son's games where a player like swung and I mean, he missed a kid on our team's face by like a centimeter.

[Bobby Bones]

Hard swing.

[Eddie]

I mean, it would have knocked him out 100 and the same thing. We're like, what? I've like never seen a 12 year old swing a full swing in the middle of a game. And they pulled him out of the game. But I think he went in like 10 minutes later, which all parents were like, what is happening? How could he still be playing?

[Bobby Bones]

Throwing a punch isn't a, an objectionable offense. Oh yeah, ejectionable offense. Absolutely. They didn't kick him out.

[Eddie]

We lucked out. We lucked out that he didn't actually land.

[Bobby Bones]

They didn't kick him out.

[Eddie]

You said they sat him for about 10 minutes.

[Bobby Bones]

That's not objectionable then. I'm saying it should be.

[Better Picks Advertiser]

It should be.

[Eddie]

And even the refs were just like, listen, don't ever do that again. You're out for 10 minutes. Like what all the parents.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah. You throw a punch, you gotta go. Yeah, you gotta get out of the game. Lunchbox. Craziest thing you've ever seen.

[Morgan]

I've seen a coach throw the soccer ball at the referee. Like, you can't see this. How do you not see this? And throw the ball?

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, what age?

[Morgan]

I think I was 14.

[Bobby Bones]

Were you playing in the game while it happened?

[Morgan]

No, I was, I had played the game before and so we were just sitting there and it was the game after. So I mean, I would assume the kids were 14 also. They were about my age. But the Coach was mad because he thought the ref missed a call. Grabbed the ball. You can't see this. Throws the ball, hit him right in the back. Red card. See you later.

[Bobby Bones]

You hate the red card.

[Eddie]

I saw one time a mom in a baseball game came from the stands and walked on the mound and, like, started yelling at her kid at that. In the middle of the game.

[Bobby Bones]

That's different.

[Amy]

Yeah, that's a mom taking care of.

[Bobby Bones]

Her own business in her own house.

[Eddie]

Like, in the middle of the game was crazy.

[Amy]

That's like when Dirk Spentley came in one time, he told us that story of his daughter playing in a volleyball game and how he had just come off the road, he's a little tired, and tried to go straight to her game. He probably was in the right headspace. And he, like, went off on the coach for, like, not playing. Like, he had to, like, physically leave. And his daughter was mortified. Yeah, she was like, dad, stop.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you imagine your mom coming out on the mound? Amy went to Home Depot for some holiday shopping last week. What'd you get?

[Amy]

Yeah, so I did get some holiday things for my porch and, like, some good smelly stuff and a wreath for my door. But I'm kind of decorating my back porch because I realized a lot of people, even delivery people, come to my back porch. So I've hung a wreath on my back door. And then also I got some new ring cams and motion light detectors because I realized, like, so many people are going there that my. My current motion light that I had, like, wasn't going off like it was staying black even though people were walking up. So I upgraded that as well. So I got some festive things for my back porch to make it more welcoming. And then I also got some security type things to also make it more welcoming.

[Bobby Bones]

Less welcoming. A little more, A little less.

[Eddie]

It's all about balance.

[Amy]

Yes, a mix of welcome and a mix of festive and a mix of don't mess with me.

[Eddie]

And so I pointed the gun at him and said, this isn't a joke.

Ancient Athenians used to scratch names onto oyster shells and they called these ostracon to vote politicians into exile.

Pretty much every entry into this side of the planet was through the El Golf of Mexico. No, the America.

[Amy]

No, the America.

[Bobby Bones]

El Golf forever and ever.

[Eva Longoria]

It blows me away how progressive Mexico was in this moment. They had land reform, they had labor rights, they had education rights. Mustard seeds were so valuable to the.

Of a version of him because he's feeding himself well.

[Amy]

It's always a concern, like, are you eating well? He's actually an amazing Cook.

[Bobby Bones]

[Morgan]

[Bobby Bones]

Got her.

[Eva Longoria]

That.

[Morgan]

All right.

[Eddie]

All right, we're done.

[Amy]

I hate y'.

[Bobby Bones]

All. This guy was in jail for 16 years. He gets out of jail and goes straight to the jets football game.

[Eddie]

That's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

The jets suck so bad, though. The jets suck so bad.

[Amy]

Yeah, but he's probably just happy to be there.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I'm sure he's happy to be anywhere.

[Eddie]

You think he knows they've been bad?

[Bobby Bones]

I do. And he was on the sideline, too. Like, he gets sideline passes. He, I guess, is a rapper. A New York rapper. Wasted no time getting back to normal life after serving 16 years behind bars and made his way straight from jail to the Jets. Game on Sunday afternoon. Okay, Imagine you've been in jail for 16 years. What's the first thing that you do?

[Amy]

I'm gonna go for a hike.

[Morgan]

What?

[Amy]

Yes. In nature. Are you kidding? I've been locked up with concrete everywhere. I am hitting up some local trails.

[Bobby Bones]

I was watching this thing on Tick Tock where these people were inside of a house, and supposedly they were squatting and they concreted up the windows and doors.

[Amy]

Concrete.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

They're getting out now.

[Amy]

Concrete.

[Bobby Bones]

Isn't that like murder? Yeah.

[Eddie]

You can't go anywhere, they die.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, they're like, I'll show them. They're taking over our house.

[Legal Expert]

We'll just.

[Eddie]

There was no way they can get.

[Bobby Bones]

Out from the video. What do I know? Yeah, I saw that. It's kind of like prison.

[Amy]

I'm sure they had an exit plan, but.

[Legal Expert]

Yeah.

[Amy]

That's crazy.

[Eddie]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, you're in jail for 16 years. You get out. Eddie, what do you do?

[Eddie]

So this is like, obviously see my family, right?

[Bobby Bones]

Like the first.

[Eddie]

I don't want to hurt. I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings.

[Bobby Bones]

First thing you know, give us a thing.

[Eddie]

Oh, I go see my family.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, that's a link. That's a link. Anybody want to pick that lunchbox, give us something interesting?

[Morgan]

Yeah, brothel.

[Bobby Bones]

What the heck?

[Eddie]

What?

[Morgan]

Yeah, brothel.

[Eddie]

Is that what you wanted?

[Bobby Bones]

No, that's not what I wanted. Honestly. Years.

[Morgan]

Are you kidding me?

[Amy]

You have a wife and children, and.

[Eddie]

That'S where I went.

[Bobby Bones]

But also, those aren't legal. Like, there's not one. You're not just gonna find one. Do you want to go back to jail?

[Eddie]

I need to go to Vegas.

[Bobby Bones]

Vegas?

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

If I'm in jail for 16 years, I probably don't have a wife anymore.

[Amy]

So what if she stood by you?

[Morgan]

Well, then she's crazy. And so I'm going brothel.

[Bobby Bones]

Man, I'm lame. I was thinking, like, Waffle House or something for food. Like, something like, something specific that I'd want to eat that I haven't had because I've been in prison. And you guys. Eddie, your answer was lame. Your answer was stupid. It's time for the good news with lunchbox. Tell me something good.

[Morgan]

There were some third graders at Thomas Hart Benton elementary School in Independence, Missouri. They're having story time, their teachers reading to them, when Shaylyn goes, look, there's a fire. And then Emmett goes, Ms. Hudson, you gotta call 91 1. And she turns around to look out the window, and sure enough, a house was on fire. There was a House right by the school that was on fire. So the teacher calls 911 fire department responds and rescues the family's animals.

[Amy]

Nice.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that's good. I guess nobody was at home, but the animals were, Right? Right.

[Morgan]

But the kids, you know, the teacher's like, come on guys, we're trying to read a story here. They're like, nah, really? Fire.

[Bobby Bones]

I was always jealous of the kid that lived right next to the school.

[Eddie]

I know.

[Bobby Bones]

They just walked to say, yeah, walk to school. Walk over and get a snack. Yeah, like that was the life. Great story. That's what it's all about.

[Better Picks Advertiser]

That was.

[Bobby Bones]

Tell me something good, Bones. Wake up. You wake up in the morning, then you turn the radio on and the dial just keeps on turning. Then you hear Eddie Emulauch box Morgan too. Scooby Steve ran trying to put you through. Mike D's riding his wigs. Next bit now Bobby's on the mic. So you know what? This is.

[Legal Expert]

Now.

[Bobby Bones]

Time for the morning corny.

[Morgan]

The morning Corny.

[Amy]

What sound does a turkey's phone make?

[Bobby Bones]

What sound does a turkey's phone make? Wing.

[Amy]

Wing.

[Bobby Bones]

That's so scary. That was the morning corny. Bobby Bone show. Bonehead glory of the day.

[Morgan]

This story comes to us from Indiana. A 45 year old man went to get a car wash, gets his car back and he's like, hey guys, this isn't clean enough. Like, sir, it is waxed, it is detailed. It's everything you need. He goes, no, no, there's still a smudge. Like, sir, we're not doing it again. So he pulled out a gun pointed at him, said, you're gonna wash my car again.

[Bobby Bones]

I would start washing the car immediately. I would ripped off my clothes, whatever he wanted.

[Eddie]

Rewax it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yep. Turtle Wax, whatever. So what happens?

[Morgan]

He fled the scene and then he was arrested a short time later at his house because they had his license plate from the car wash and went and arrested him.

[Eddie]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Wait, so he, he said with a gun, wash my car. And then he jumped in his own car and drove off?

[Morgan]

Yeah, he got. He freaked out and left. He didn't even get the second car.

[Bobby Bones]

How do you get your car washed if you jump in your car and leave?

[Morgan]

I'm lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day, Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

All right. And now some voicemails. Banana comment. At least in Minnesota it is illegal. My poor grandpa never had a ticket in his life.

[Amy]

Threw a banana peel out the window.

[Bobby Bones]

While he was driving. A cop saw him, pulled him over, gave him a ticket My grandpa went.

[Amy]

To court to fight it.

[Bobby Bones]

Cop showed up. 80 years old, he got his first.

[Amy]

Ticket ever for throwing a banana peel out the window.

[Eddie]

Thanks.

[Bobby Bones]

Bye. Wow. I'm shocked.

[Eddie]

Messed up.

[Bobby Bones]

We did give the legal advice you could throw a banana peel out the window.

[Eddie]

We did.

[Bobby Bones]

Now we didn't know if that was true or not. I can ask my assistant.

[Better Picks Advertiser]

Hello.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, question. If you were to throw a banana peel or an apple out your window, would that be considered littering even though that it's biodegradable? Hey there.

[Legal Expert]

So it's a good question. Technically, yes, it can still be considered littering even though it's biodegradable. A lot of places have laws that say any kind of object you toss out of a car can count as litter because it can still mess with the local environment, attract animals to roadsides, or just not decompose as quickly as you think. So it's generally best to just compost it properly or toss it in the trash bin.

[Bobby Bones]

So when I said to a listener of our show that you could throw it out and it's not littering, I was very wrong. And I also shouldn't be giving legal advice. Is that correct?

[Legal Expert]

Well, I mean, let's just say you were being a little bit casual about it. It's definitely one of those things where it's always safer not to toss stuff out the window, even if it's just a banana appeal. And yeah, probably best to leave the legal advice to the lawyers. But hey, we all learn as we go. And now you've got a fun little correction moment for the show.

[Bobby Bones]

Are there any states where it is legal to throw out biodegradable things and it not be littering?

[Legal Expert]

So generally speaking, most states in the US have pretty similar rules about littering and they don't really get an exception just because something is biodegradable. So even if you're in, say, a rural area, most laws will still still count it as littering if you toss it out of a car. Now, there might be some local ordinances that are a bit more lenient, especially if you're on private property or farmland. But as a general rule of thumb, it's just safer to assume it's not allowed. So probably best to keep that banana peel inside the car.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it's very wrong about that. Sorry about that.

[Eddie]

Dang.

[Amy]

Same. Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Next one. Voicemail. Hit it. I had a question for Lunchbox. I seen that the hundred thousand dollar pyramid is hiring for contestants, and when I split off the application, it said, what's celebrity would you like and why. And maybe if I pick Lunchbox, being the celebrity he is, he could get on there.

[Eddie]

We could win that $100,000.

[Bobby Bones]

Let me know.

[Morgan]

Lunchbox. Oh, go for it. Dude, put me down. I would love to be on a hundred thousand dollar pyramid. I'm good at giving clues, I'm good at describing things. I got the energy. I don't know how your guessing is, but I mean, with my coaching, we can win the whole thing.

[Bobby Bones]

You think they would accept you as a celebrity?

[Morgan]

Yeah, why wouldn't they?

[Eddie]

You're not a celebrity.

[Morgan]

Millions of people listen to me every morning.

[Bobby Bones]

Why don't you try out for the pyramid and try to get a celebrity? I think the odds of that happening will be way better than you being the celebrity.

[Eddie]

Okay, what celebrity do you think you can get?

[Morgan]

Johnny Bananas? No, that you can get Dax Shepard.

[Bobby Bones]

What do you mean that you can get?

[Morgan]

Yeah, you got to pick your favorite celebrity and they. I don't know if they pair you up except specifically with your celebrity. Who else would I pick? Kim K. There you go.

[Bobby Bones]

Those are real celebrities though. I think if you were to write down Lunchbox, they would be confused as to what he meant. Like what's a lunchbox? Don't you think that.

[Morgan]

No, they would know who I am. I mean they. This is the biggest show in the country.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, that's not accurate, but okay, Ray, give me number six.

[Morgan]

I'm calling because we asked our eight.

[Bobby Bones]

Year old son what he wanted for.

[Eddie]

Christmas and he really just wants to go to Minnesota Vikings game. We live in Virginia.

[Morgan]

Let's make it a whole weekend type trip.

[Eddie]

Do we do this and not let.

[Bobby Bones]

Him go to school that Monday?

[Morgan]

Thanks.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. Yeah, I think there are some things that end up being core memories where you don't have to go to school. I think he'd remember this forever and it'd be super cool. And it's okay to miss a day of school occasionally. Now this is from somebody who has perfect attendance. And I think looking back, had there been something that would have been a possible core memory. Yeah, I would have done it. I think it's cool. I think anytime you can go and do something new, something fun, I think you can miss a day of school. Who cares? I care about school, but who cares about missing a day of school whenever it's something that's valuable, like within the family? So I think you can do that. You.

[Amy]

Yeah, I think that this is definitely even better than any gift you could get him because this is what he's asking for. First of all. And second of all, I saw a mom post online recently. She put a camera in her daughter's face and said, what did we get you for Christmas last year? And her daughter was like, I don't remember. And she said, where did we take a family vacation last year? And she was like, oh, Lake Tahoe. Like, she remembered the family trip and that memory. So this is something like Bobby said he'll remember forever. Way more than whatever other gift you could get him.

[Bobby Bones]

You ever let your kids miss school?

[Eddie]

Oh, all the time. Sometimes that feels.

[Bobby Bones]

That feels a little too relaxed.

[Eddie]

Sometimes I'm like, are you sure you want to go to school today?

[Amy]

Not like that.

[Bobby Bones]

Why would you let them miss?

[Eddie]

Well, that's how I was raised. Like, my. I was raised all. Like, my dad would just say, like, just miss school.

[Bobby Bones]

You're good.

[Eddie]

We're gonna go do this today.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Eddie]

So I kind of feel like. And like you said, I remember those days. I remember missing school and the good feeling of like, man, I don't have to go to school today. I didn't. Let me.

[Amy]

He was more like, ah, you don't have to go to school today.

[Bobby Bones]

He didn't want to be bothered with getting you to school.

[Eddie]

Yeah, maybe, maybe. But it was a great memory for me.

[Amy]

Yeah. Okay.

[Eddie]

So that's why I do that now with my kids.

[Amy]

Yeah. But just make sure you understand how many absences can happen, because then, like, truancy.

[Eddie]

Oh, that's true. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Like one, like one, like two, something like that. Or if, like, your dad's a truck driver and once a year, like, you go on, like, a four day trip across the country with them.

[Amy]
