Eddie
Here we go.
Bobby Bones
Come on, Bobby.
Susie
Transmitting across America.
Bobby Bones
Turn it up. This is the Bobby Bo Show. Let's go. What's up, everybody? Welcome to Wednesday show. Morning, studio. Morning, Bones. All right, three things on your mind. Amy, you go first. Give me one of them.
Amy
Well, one thing that I cannot stop thinking about is a DM I got from a listener asking me if I was worried about my job.
Eddie
Whoa. Why would you be worried about your job?
Amy
Yeah, exactly.
Bobby Bones
Go ahead. I don't know. I don't know why she would say that. Like, what? Context me, please. Was it a reply to something you wrote? A story?
Amy
It was like, hey, are you worried about your job? I guess they work closely with or they know someone that works at one of our affiliate stations. And I don't know if they heard something, but it prompted them to ask me if I was worried about my job. I have no other details.
Eddie
I don't.
Bobby Bones
Are you?
Amy
I wasn't.
Eddie
Now you are.
Bobby Bones
You don't need to worry about your job.
Amy
Okay, well, that's just.
Bobby Bones
Oh, is that what you were looking for? You want to ask me that question? Go ahead.
Amy
Yeah, I'm like, should we be worried about our job?
Bobby Bones
Are you asking me?
Eddie
Yes. Why? We.
Bobby Bones
No, just do you.
Amy
Well, they said me you should.
Morgan
Do you.
Amy
So am I. Should I be worried about my job?
Bobby Bones
No, you should not.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Okay. That's number.
Eddie
Okay, now that is weird that you made her.
Bobby Bones
I want everybody else. Yeah, okay. That's your number one thing. Let me do my number one of three. The hidden superpowers of left handed people. I am left handed. 1 in 10 people are left handed. These are some of the superpowers.
Morgan
Here we go.
Bobby Bones
Hit it.
Lunchbox
Better at reading faces and emotions. Faster reflexes in sports and gaming. Excel at reversing images. Mentally less likely to follow the crowd. Natural independent thinkers, mostly men. More men are left handed than women. Many US Presidents were left handed. They remember conversations. Stronger recall for spoken words. Twins are more likely to have one left handed sibling. Naturally competitive left handers thrive under pressure and challenge. Map masters better spatial awareness. Helps them read maps easily. Older moms, more lefties. Women who give birth later have more left handed kids. Their brains connect both sides better, making them natural multitaskers.
Bobby Bones
All right, thank you very much for all that. I feel like you could say that about anybody and they'd be like, yeah, I fit a lot of that.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
But I'm sure there's some research. I know that the percentage of left handed presidents is higher than the percentage of Left handed people generally, which is kind of weird to think about, but. Ray, you're a twin. Yeah. Brother is left handed. No way. Way.
Eddie
That is weird.
Amy
That's crazy.
Bobby Bones
Okay, I'm a superhero, basically. That's. That's how I get my superpower. It's all the crap I've always had.
Amy
Ray, was your brother a better athlete than you?
Bobby Bones
I would say I was.
Yeah. I played. I was. I started more, I would say. So, yes. Okay, there you have it. That's all. I just wanted to like, shout out. Yeah. Shout out me.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. All right, what else you got over there?
Amy
So I am curious as to how my birthday got changed on Facebook. Because it did. It changed to, I don't know, like December 5th or something.
Bobby Bones
And I'm curious as to why you're on Facebook.
Amy
Well, I go on there to go on Facebook Marketplace, but that's it. I didn't know it had changed, though. I started getting texts from friends saying, happy Birthday. And one of them, my friend Scott, I've known him since I was 13. We both had birthdays in March. And I'm like, scott, you know it's not my birthday. And he was like, oh. I just defaulted because Facebook said. And I wasn't really thinking. And I'm like, yeah. So now I know which of my friends are really paying attention to Facebook and which one of them just like, they don't even think because they're like, oh, Facebook says it must send a note to say Happy Birthday. And sure enough, I went and looked and my birthday was changed and I didn't change it. So I don't know if I got hacked or what, but my birthday got changed.
Bobby Bones
Well, happy birthday.
Eddie
Happy birthday, Amy.
Morgan
Happy birthday.
Bobby Bones
Did you think I was doing a joke on you at first?
Amy
Yeah. I immediately went to your Instagram to see if you did one of those things where you put up my picture and put my birthday even though it's not and you didn't.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I do that to Eddie about six times a year.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And then he gets texts all the time being happy Birthday.
Eddie
And I have to tell him, oh, it's a joke. Bobby does it all the time.
Bobby Bones
Time.
Amy
So every day since then I've just been curious. Like, I have no explanation as to why because nothing else looks suspicious on my Facebook at all.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's interesting because I would think I got hacked too, if they went in and changed after they change other things. Yeah, your password's still good.
Amy
So far, so good.
Eddie
You think they would hack just to change the Birthday for fun?
Bobby Bones
No, not just that. But I wonder if they got other information from that. Yeah, that's a waste of a hack if you're only hacking to change people's birthday, Right? Yeah. I don't have an answer there, but.
Amy
I didn't know, so that's on my mind.
Bobby Bones
I'm sorry that happened to you. My second one is a man recounts seeing UFOs that he says look like orbs that changed colors and moved in different directions at times. This is from News Nation. Now. Here you go. Hit that.
Lunchbox
Flying close to my boat for about 10 minutes. There's some smaller ones off in the distance you don't see in the video. It started out, like, as three orbs that were close together, like, in a triangular pattern. And they'd all kind of change in colors from red, black, orange, and they would merge together as one, and then they'd split off. There'd be two of them, then there'd be one, then there'd be three of them, and at certain points, they just disappeared all together and would just reappear. They dropped down close to the water, like right above the water, and started coming towards me.
Bobby Bones
You guys haven't watched the documentary yet, huh? Age of Disclosure?
Amy
No, I bought it.
Bobby Bones
You did?
Eddie
Man.
Bobby Bones
If you watch it and you're not focused on eight or nine things talking to everybody here. I mean, mostly Amy.
Eddie
Mostly Amy.
Bobby Bones
I think if you watch it in, you'll be blown away.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You have this.
Amy
Like, I'm going to dedicate. I'm going to dedicate my time to watching it to, like. Because you paid me $25 to buy it, so I bought it, and I'm going to not. I'm not going to waste the money. I'm going to sit and watch it. That's why I haven't watched it yet.
Bobby Bones
It's your mind. Morgan saw UFO at Disney.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Went viral for it. So I don't know, guys. There's no heat signature on some of these things. There's no. There's no combustion. How they move in so fast. They go faster than anything that we have humanly possible. That's all that's on my mind. All right, give me a third one.
Amy
Well, I can't stop thinking about people that wash their hands before they unload the dishwasher.
Bobby Bones
They wash their hands before they unload the dishwasher. That makes sense. I've never done it, though.
Amy
I've never done it, nor have I ever thought about it, which makes me feel, like, gross. But I saw a girl Asking the question on Instagram because she saw someone also on Instagram or TikTok, bring it up. So then she was like, I have to ask y', all, do you wash your hands before you unload the dishwasher? And I thought, I have never done that purposefully. I mean, maybe sometimes just by chance, I happen to wash my hands before I unload, but it's not like a, oh, I'm about to unload the dishwasher. Better wash my hands first. But it makes sense if you think about it.
Bobby Bones
Yep, it does make a lot of sense. And now I'm gonna feel guilty for not doing it, because I should have clean hands. I'm touching clean plates.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Also, I should probably unload the dishwasher, which I don't do.
Eddie
Mostly.
Bobby Bones
That's what reminds me of that. I should maybe and, you know, unload the dishwasher occasionally. Not. My wife will get irritated at me, too, because I'll take a plate, I'll rinse it fully, and just put it in the sink. And she's like, the dishwasher, it's five inches.
Scuba Steve
Yeah.
Eddie
One more step.
Bobby Bones
It's five. But I'm like, I just rinsed it. Like, celebrate that. She's like, I will not, like, put in the dishwasher. But she loads it weird. Like, my whole life, the bottom has always been plates and bowls.
Scuba Steve
Correct.
Bobby Bones
And the top is always glasses.
Eddie
Correct.
Bobby Bones
My wife loads in different ways. It's all a puzzle. Anything can go anywhere.
Amy
You just got to make it fit sometimes.
Eddie
Does she mix? She mix the forks and the spoons and the knives.
Bobby Bones
So. Yeah. And so there's a little. Well, there's a tray, and there's like. Like, a compartment on the bottom as well. And so it's all mixed, and sometimes the knives are pointing up.
Eddie
Oh, I don't like.
Bobby Bones
What if I'm reaching in blindly?
Eddie
That's dangerous.
Bobby Bones
I'm gonna cut my hand.
Amy
What if you're reaching in, you don't unload the dishwasher.
Bobby Bones
Imagine I do unload it, and I do wash my hands, and I reach in blindly. I can cut my hand.
Amy
Well, so there is your reason to not unload the dishwasher.
Bobby Bones
Great point. We got back to that. My final thing is, speaking of handcuffs, I got a band aid on here. Had a couple people ask me, hey, what happened to your hand? I just want everybody to know that I have hangnails. Oh.
Eddie
And you picked at it.
Bobby Bones
And once I get them, I just put a band aid on, so I don't pick at it. Oh, And I don't rip it out because I will rip it out. I'm a big hangnail getter because I bought my fingernails once when games are close and I probably bet on them.
Amy
So your hangnails are on the side, right?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, they're on the side right here.
Amy
Made it. Made more hangnails.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I don't know how hangnail works exactly.
Eddie
I don't know either.
Bobby Bones
But I know when I buy my nails, I get hang nail on the side, so that's. Guys, I'm okay. Thank you for asking. Just hang nail season. Okay, Amy. Thank you, Bones. Raymundo, I just got a text from your wife.
Eddie
Ah.
Bobby Bones
She just hit me up and said that Hilaria Baldwin just challenged me to a cha cha off. It's awesome. Yeah, she's all into if it happens on a podcast. She's heard it. So she was like Alec Baldwin's wife who got kicked off Dancing with the Stars early. Challenged me to a dance off. She must not know I only have one working foot.
Eddie
Oh, challenged you? Yeah. I thought she was challenging Ray's wife.
Amy
That's what I thought.
Bobby Bones
She was challenging me. If she was on Dancing with the Stars season, I'm going to politely decline that.
Eddie
Yeah, you're hurt.
Bobby Bones
And I can't dance. Let's not forget that. I would need a lot of work to get back into dance shape. Also, she is a good dancer. Like, she's a trained dancer. Can we have fan vote? Because if we can have fan vote, I think I can beat her.
Amy
Yeah. I mean, yeah, probably. Because wasn't she the one that you said she got bullied off or she said she got bullied off and you were like, you can't get bullied off.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you can't get. You can get bullied, but you can't get bullied off the show because people can't vote you off. They can just not vote. They vote for other people.
Amy
Right.
Bobby Bones
There's no going vote for the person we dislike the most to be voted off. That was the logic.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I don't know. I consider it.
Eddie
Do you remember a cha cha? Like, you know what that dance is?
Amy
Cha cha cha.
Bobby Bones
I watched all my videos back. Like, I have a YouTube channel that I. It's the At Bobby bones channel on YouTube that I watched all my Dancing with the Stars dances back for the first time, and I watched my cha cha back, and then that's how I remember because I just watched it. Got it. Yeah. So, okay. You know what? I'll consider it. That'd be cool if that's a real challenge. Yeah. Ray's wife just hit me up. Hey, tell her we're doing a show over here, Ray. That's what I'm saying. We're live across America. Exactly. She can listen to that. After 11. I do love the stories of people finding things in thrift shops and then it turns out to be worth a bunch of money. It's one of my new favorite types of stories. This woman was talking about how she was at a thrift store. It's what she does for fun. And this woman brings out a bunch of stuff. I guess it's like when they stock the shelves, but there's a bunch of new stuff that's been dropped off and donated. So she waits for the person to roll the stuff out, and the woman takes this really ugly piggy bank. She grabs a piggy bank immediately, and there was $2,000 in cash inside the piggy bank she bought for 10 bucks.
Eddie
That's cool. Yeah.
Morgan
Awesome.
Bobby Bones
She showed it on her page, and she said the money was folded together and held together by hair ties. I don't know how somebody didn't look. Not first of all, the person is donating it. You don't look in the piggy bank. I know you can't break it, but there is a little slit there.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And you can see if something's in there.
Amy
Maybe they shook it in there, but there's no change. So.
Bobby Bones
But that little hole, you can see there's something in there. Right.
Morgan
But there was a bunch of plastic bags. So even if she shook it.
Amy
Yeah.
Morgan
You wouldn't have heard it. There was like, she reached in there and there's a bunch of plastic bags. Pulled them, pulled them, pulled them, pulled them, pulled them. And then boom, Money started falling.
Amy
Wow.
Bobby Bones
Still, if I'm donating that thing and there's anything in it, I'm going to just break it. Because you're not going to get but three or four dollars. And if my piggy bank's got stuff in it, it's worth three or four. That three or $4 risk. But she found $2,000 in that thing. Then also, if I'm working there and all the donations come in and there's a. I'm probably gonna break it.
Amy
Are you allowed to do that?
Eddie
I don't know.
Amy
I don't know. I don't think so.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
And do you have to break it? Normally there's a little under the belly.
Eddie
Not real one times.
Bobby Bones
This is a glass one. It's a pink glass one.
Amy
Yeah, I had a pink glass piggyback.
Morgan
But it has a hole, and there's a little hole in the bottom.
Eddie
Not all of this.
Morgan
This one has a hole in the bottom.
Bobby Bones
I'm looking at it right here. It's got a glass. All the money is in, like, a glass jar inside the piggy bank.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Anyway, I'm breaking it. Powerball's about a billion bucks.
Amy
Billion. All right, it's time to play.
Bobby Bones
This is like, every three weeks now. Like, if it's not a trillion, I'm not interested. Okay. If it's not $1 trillion, this is my new goal with the Powerball. I am not interested unless it's 1 trillion. So the Powerball is at 930 million after the miss on Monday night. So, I don't know. Good luck, everybody.
Amy
Wait, I thought when it hits a billion, we get in.
Eddie
That was our rule.
Bobby Bones
My new rule's a trillion. Oh, that changed today. Yeah.
Amy
Now that billions. Right, right, right.
Bobby Bones
If it ain't a trillion, I'm not interested. Yeah, you guys can call us if you want. 8, 7, 7, 7, 7, Bobby. 8, 7, 7, seven, seven. B, O, B.
C. It's crazy. A guy in Michigan died of rabies, and not because he was bit by an animal. And this probably popped up in my feed because at a possum in my yard and we're talking about rabies. So now I'm fed rabies stories. But he died after getting a kidney transplant.
Amy
Oh, my.
Bobby Bones
From a donor who didn't know they had rabies.
Eddie
Oh, my goodness.
Bobby Bones
This is this year. So there was the organ transplant. The organ had rabies in it.
Eddie
I thought they'd do, like, a real good check before they organs.
Bobby Bones
What they check is if you get bit by something, they have to kill the animal to cut the head off to check the brain.
Eddie
No, I get that. But before they give someone a kidney, I thought they'd double check everything. That kidney's good to go.
Bobby Bones
I don't know that there's a machine that when they take it out, they put it in, run it through, like at the airport. I don't know if that's true or not. I think if it's a healthy kidney, they take it out and put it in. Or if they even check for rabies, because that's so rare right there.
Amy
I have so many questions.
Bobby Bones
I don't know the answer to them.
Amy
I know. So that's why I'm just. That's why I'm not going to ask them, because I get that you won't know, but, like, can we get the doctor?
Bobby Bones
The donor had been scratched by a skunk weeks earlier, but showed no diagnosed rabies symptoms.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Before his organs were recovered. After the kidney recipient developed rabies symptoms, CDC testing confirmed the donor kidney as the source. The donor's other organs were either used for research or transplanted as corneas, prompting public health officials to evaluate 357 contacts. DA DA da, da da. I don't know what some of this stuff means, but that's a really sad, tragic way to go.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You get an organ finally. I don't know if you're on a list. It seems like a lot of people are on kidney lists. You finally get it, and it has rabies in it. Dang, that sucks. Ah, yeah, that's what's up. I don't want to bring the room down, but we were just talking about rabies, and I'm just. It's crazy that we don't have, like, a. A cure for that or that you can't even tell if an animal has it until you kill them.
Amy
But then so do you, you know, if you have it, they.
Bobby Bones
This guy, this person didn't.
Amy
I know, so.
Bobby Bones
No, you don't. It was a scratch. And if you don't go and get it, tell them you don't get the shots in your stomach. Well, that's what happened with my friend. They had a bat land on them. Bat didn't even bite them. Bat didn't scratch them that they knew of, but the bat landed on them. They were fully clothed, like, on their back, and they were like, you got to get rabies shots just in case.
Eddie
Yeah, you should always. Just in case.
Bobby Bones
It's like I saw a bat and got rabies shots.
Eddie
There we go. Just in case.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I watched Batman and went and got rabies shots after the movie because of that. So, yeah, that sucked. I do want to go over to Susie, who's a little upset at Lunchbox. Susie, you're on the show. Good morning, Susie. Good morning.
Lunchbox
How are you?
Bobby Bones
Pretty good. What do you want to say?
Susie
So I heard. I believe it was Lunchbox talking about Cher and her old body and how when he sees women in their aging years, 60 or something, that it makes them hurl and.
Just call him out on that because everybody gets old and, you know, you want to take care of your body and work out and eat healthy and make good choices, and so it's. Yeah, it just bothers me that he was talking about her body that way.
Bobby Bones
Well, I appreciate that. So what had happened Was we were talking about Cher, who is about to be 80, she has a 39 year old boyfriend. And I was celebrating Cher. I was like, if we're going to talk about dudes and be like this, I'm talking about, let's talk about Cher and be like, I'm talking about, like, I don't know people's motivations or intentions, but we can't have these guys go, yeah, that's. That's weird for Bill Belichick, but yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
Amy
Well, when I think about it in the lunchboxes, that was definitely Lunchbox. It was his thoughts and his thoughts on me.
Bobby Bones
He was even talking about Sherry's like, when I see 80 year old women, I go, why are you thinking about him naked, you random 80 year olds.
Amy
That part was definitely weird. That part's definitely weird because it's not like I walk past old men and I'm suddenly like, well, like as a.
Morgan
Well, you should, you should because you're dating one.
Bobby Bones
No.
Amy
What?
Eddie
Oh, my goodness.
Bobby Bones
His body.
Amy
Lunchbox. His body is psyched him better than yours.
Bobby Bones
You can't attack her and then go, whoa, whoa.
Amy
No, but like, honestly, his body's better than lunchboxes. 100%. He is in such good shape.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
Okay, now that we've said that he threw you off.
Bobby Bones
He threw you off.
Amy
My thought, he threw you off.
Bobby Bones
Golly hater Susan. And she's always defended. In five minutes she'll be defending him to the death.
Susie
Not anymore.
Morgan
Listen, this woman, like, of course you, I know you get older and I'm sorry, when you get older, you're not as attractive. That's just facts. Like, and so when this 30 year old dude, I just don't how he see. How he sees. Sharon's like, man, I want to get with that. Ah, no chance. No.
Bobby Bones
Susie, I appreciate you calling. You probably are the voice for a lot of our listeners. We didn't agree with him in how he said it. We also just don't look at random 80 year olds and think of them sexually.
Amy
Right.
Bobby Bones
Which he indicated he does. And it makes him sick.
Eddie
When they're just walking down the street.
Bobby Bones
We didn't even ask him. He was like, I see 80 year olds at Kroger. And I'm like.
Morgan
True.
Bobby Bones
Susie, thank you for your call. Have a great day.
Susie
Yeah, there's beauty in everybody. And I mean, you know, Lunchbox, you're gonna grow old one day and be all, have a saggy butt.
Eddie
Probably already has one.
Amy
Yeah, maybe.
He hasn't Lifted a weight ever?
Morgan
I wouldn't say.
Amy
When's the last time you lifted weights?
Morgan
Yeah, probably high school. Okay, so you were inaccurate there.
Bobby Bones
Okay, we'll be back.

Bobby Bones
Hello Bobby Bones. My friend is planning to propose to his girlfriend on Christmas morning surrounded by her family. But he's also planning to kill two birds with one stone and count the engagement ring as our Christmas present. He has no other gifts for her. I try to tell him that an engagement isn't the same as a present because it's a mutual step forward for both of them. He doesn't see it that way and says the price of the ring justifies doubling as A Christmas present. Would you convince my friend the opposite? No, I wouldn't actually. I know guys who have only proposed because it was coming up, but they didn't have a Christmas present and they went with that as their gift.
Amy
Yeah. But we have an opportunity to explain to him that he shouldn't do that.
Bobby Bones
That's a ring costs a lot of money and it's only one sided. Like you can get a little something but I don't think you have to get like a big gift if you're giving her money. Yeah.
Amy
It doesn't have to be big because.
Bobby Bones
It'S not a mutual step forward gift. If it was, you'd mutually be buying a gift for each other that costs the same amount.
Amy
True.
Bobby Bones
So I'm all for this being a massive Christmas gift, but I think you have to get something still littleish to mid, but know, whatever like the main present is.
Amy
Yeah, okay, I'm with you on that. Like something to mid or just thoughtful things.
Bobby Bones
Yes. I think there has to be some sort of gift in just Christmas setting with everybody else. Unless you're going to propose in that setting. But it doesn't have to be big because this is the big gift. So I can't, I can't agree with this emailer because it's just not a mutual gift thing. If she were getting you something that costs the same amount. Yep. You're mutually stepping forward. Rings are expensive. I don't know if you ever looked the price of them.
Eddie
Yeah, like very expensive.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Amy
I saw this one girl post something the other day about how, you know, her fiance bought her ring on and then was paying on it, you know, making payments and then they got married. She started being toward contributing towards the payments and she's like, wait a second, I'm paying for my ring now.
Eddie
So he made the first payment.
Bobby Bones
But I think that's normal. I think that's normal with people. Like you get a ring, you put on a credit card and.
Amy
And then when you get married you join and you start paying towards your. Okay.
Bobby Bones
It just depends how long you're engaged. Well, you have to start paying on the ring pretty soon, so you're knocking out some of those payments.
Amy
Okay. I don't know, I just had never really thought about it before.
Bobby Bones
I don't think that's that crazy.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Because most people can't just go and buy a whole ring with cash. And then any debt. That's debt is you both debt if you both got debts.
Eddie
Right, right. Which could be the ring.
Amy
Yeah, I know, it just. I I was like, oh, clever. I guess a way to do it because either I've never thought about it or it's just maybe I've known people, they take care of it before they actually get married. Or could.
Bobby Bones
I don't think most people can do that.
Amy
Can you keep that debt separate? Like, hey, I got this.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I don't think so. Okay, that's Christmas present. Congrats for the next three years. You can even do that. All right, there you go. Close it up, Bones. Lunchbox thinks I should have a bachelor party. What would that even be?
Morgan
It's one last hurrah before the baby is born.
Bobby Bones
Don't you feel like it's weird though, when guys have a bachelor party and they go, one last two raw? Your last two raw was before you got in a serious relationship.
Morgan
No, it's not that. It's more like one last time with the boys and you think, oh, the bachelor party is it. And you get married and you realize, man, I still live kind of life. I can go on a guy's trip. I can go do this if I want. Once a kid is involved, it's harder to get away. So the new trend is the bachelor party.
Bobby Bones
So what would you expect me to do for a Dachelor party?
Morgan
You. You would go to a sporting event somewhere. I don't know what time of year you're going to go. Go to a sporting event. You would take your golf clubs, play a few rounds of golf and maybe, maybe dabble in the casino and then maybe have a night of fruity alcohol free cocktails.
Eddie
Fruity. Oh, got it, got it.
Morgan
Like, have a nice dinner and just.
Bobby Bones
Say, like, he was fruity.
Morgan
What in the world?
Eddie
I don't know, dude, it's your dach, dude.
Bobby Bones
We didn't know where you're going.
Morgan
It's not my Dachler party, it's his Dachel party. And so I just think some exotic, cool place that you know it's going to be hard to get to, you've wanted to go to before there is a baby involved.
Eddie
Here's my problem with this. Like, you've had many, many years to do whatever he's saying.
Bobby Bones
Lots of fruity interactions, A lot of pretty interactions.
Eddie
The sporting events. You want to dabble in a casino. Like you've done all this. I think we did that in Vegas a few months ago.
Morgan
Yeah, that was three, baby.
Bobby Bones
Okay, but last hurrah.
Morgan
He's saying it's the last hurrah.
Eddie
Hey, do you want this?
Bobby Bones
I don't think it's a last two raw. Am I wrong about that?
Morgan
No, it's a lot harder.
Eddie
You're not going to be able to do a lot of stuff.
Morgan
Yeah, it changes.
Eddie
He's right about that.
Bobby Bones
But I don't do a lot of that stuff now.
Eddie
That's my point. He's like, why would you want to do it now?
Bobby Bones
Why would I do another hurrah that I'm not even. I mean, I don't know. I feel like if I want to go to game, unless I go to.
Amy
Game, maybe it's like, just in case. Just in case.
Morgan
Just in case, like, you get, like. Because you think your wife is gonna say, just go to the game. But when that baby is crying and needs diapers and it gets a little stressful and sometimes, no, I really need to stay home, you're like, oh, pre first baby.
Bobby Bones
Did you guys have an idea of what it would be like? And it was way different post first baby.
Eddie
Yeah, I did, for sure.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Eddie
I didn't think it was gonna be as hard because my dad, like, he didn't do a lot, you know, like, he didn't ever change diapers. He didn't really do anything as far as, like, raising a kid. So, like, that was my mind of it. My wife had a different idea of that.
Bobby Bones
So you were surprised by how much the expectation was of you.
Eddie
Yeah. Like, you're putting stuff together and warming up bottles in the middle of the night. Yeah. Cleaning the bottles with those little brushes. Yeah. A lot of work. Wasn't expecting that.
Bobby Bones
What about you?
Morgan
I would say I didn't realize, like, you. There's no quick run to go do something like, hey, I'm just gonna go watch the game over at Sean's house. Oh, wait, you have an appointment. That means someone has to watch the baby. Oh, man. Okay. Guess I'm not gonna go to Sean's. You know what I mean? Like, it was just a lot of difficult, like, that. You can't just run into the gas station, say, oh, I got to load up the baby. I just got to run to get milk.
Bobby Bones
So if you have the baby, you can't just run in real quick.
Morgan
Right. You got to go to get the baby in the car. Then you got to take the car seat out and run in the.
Eddie
It's just like, that was a shocker.
Morgan
That's like, yes, there's a lot less time. You don't realize how much time this baby is going to take. Like, it takes a lot of freaking time, man. I'm telling you.
Bobby Bones
Hey, Scuba. What about you. What. What was your expectation Pre first baby vs post? Just first baby.
Scuba Steve
So for me, I was just excited in a different way because I grew up without a father, so I was excited to have the opportunity to be a father. And then for me, he put you.
Bobby Bones
Guys in your place.
But that's how it was.
Scuba Steve
And then after the fact, then it really hit me how fast they grow.
Morgan
Dang, he got you guys again.
Scuba Steve
And, like, in the moment, you're like, oh, they'll be a baby forever. And then, snap, they're seven years old, and they're in school, and they have a personality and a character. And then it weighs me emotionally that. That I wasn't maybe as present as I should have been when they were younger. So I guess for me, it hit me in a different way than you guys.
Eddie
But I thought you were present when they were younger.
Scuba Steve
Well, I was, but not as much as I thought.
Morgan
He started off saying how present he was, and then now I wasn't present. I don't know which one it was.
Bobby Bones
I have to be.
Scuba Steve
To be fair, I had three kids.
Bobby Bones
The first one, we're just talking about the first one.
Scuba Steve
Only the first one. I was there so much. I was involved in everything from doctor visits to anything and everything. I was very involved in the first, second, and third, not so much.
Eddie
Sounds like you went to Sean's house.
Bobby Bones
A lot of trips to the gas station.
Morgan
Yeah, and it was tough. Like, doctor's appointments. Like, my wife had a doctor's appointment once a week. It's like, man, it was cool to.
Scuba Steve
Go to see it all and be able to watch the sonogram and everything and to feel the baby and see, like, it was a cool experience. That's cool.
Eddie
That's cool. But it's a lot, though. It's.
Bobby Bones
But even I'm saying, post baby, like, your expectations. Pretty. And then post.
Morgan
Yeah, post. I thought I was still gonna be going to Broadway.
Eddie
I'm telling you, dude, my dad was at Applebee's, like, every day, so I thought I was gonna go to Applebee's, come home. And the baby. No, it wasn't the case.
Bobby Bones
Scoop is writing a freaking fantasy book about his baby experience while he's there. Perfect, man.
Scuba Steve
Yeah. I didn't want to be hanging anywhere except for with my kids.
Bobby Bones
If you mean it, that's awesome.
Scuba Steve
I really did mean it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Scuba Steve
And my kid went everywhere. Some people were like, you shouldn't go anywhere with your kid. Like, put in this glass box. No, screw that. Your kid should be part of your life. And what you do. So my son went with me everywhere we went. We had Disney annual passes.
Bobby Bones
He went to Disney as a baby baby.
Scuba Steve
As a baby baby, yeah. Three months old at Disney.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Eddie
But that was his first. That's his first. What happened to the other two? He was like, I should have spent more time.
Bobby Bones
We weren't talking about 2 and 3, because, again, this would be my first. Yeah.
Eddie
I'm just saying, making this.
Bobby Bones
Look, he is. He is, but I think he's telling the truth. Yeah.
Scuba Steve
I was very, very involved and super excited to be a father.
Morgan
Okay, hold on. My kids still went places.
Bobby Bones
Now.
Morgan
I mean.
Bobby Bones
Okay. I knew this would turn into this. I was literally just asking a question. Maybe a dachshund party. Probably not. I don't think I need one. No. I think I've lived.
Morgan
It's not stupid. It's really not stupid. It's really not.
Scuba Steve
You're not gonna be invited, so don't worry about it.
Bobby Bones
It's time for the good news with Bobby. Tell me something good.
This guy's a smart watch, and he's able to connect it with his bed, and he had a heart issue. And so the bed and the watch was able to go, hey, your heart is out of rhythm. Like, red alert. Go to the hospital.
Amy
Wow.
Bobby Bones
And so he went in, and he was just having a heart attack.
Eddie
Dang. How scary is that? The, like, your alert. Your thing tells you that's about to.
Bobby Bones
Happen because there's a blockage happening. Gosh. Yeah, the. Well, Apple watches are wild. I don't know how they get all this just from, like, your wrist, like, just from, like, a heartbeat in your wrist. It's crazy what they can get. And I can't act to act like I know how it all works. But the watch and how it connected to that bed reads tiny body movements to estimate heart rate. And this kind of monitoring system is common in a lot of devices, including the Apple Watch. But there are other products, too. Like, there's a. There's like a. A band that you can wear.
Amy
Yes. What's that called?
Bobby Bones
I don't know, but there's a lot of these that could. I also have, like, the aura ring that I wear. Not an ad, but, yeah, it. How they can tell just about being on your skin and, like, feeling a heartbeat is crazy, but, yeah, it's it. This guy's life is saved because his bed and his watch detected and prevented a heart attack from happening. That's a crazy story. That's from Vice. That's what it's all about that was. Tell me something good, bones. The singer share will be 80 in May and it looks like she wants to marry her 39 year old boyfriend.
Get it? That's what I say.
Amy
What is the age again?
Bobby Bones
She's 80. Okay, he's 39. Not quite. She's not quite 80, but she's about to be 80. Makes the math easier.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, well, I guess it does.
Eddie
So 41 years.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, we could just say 40 years.
Eddie
Yeah, 40 years different. That's a lot of years, dude.
Bobby Bones
But we don't care if it's a dude.
Eddie
Why don't.
Amy
We don't care.
Bobby Bones
Well, it's. Look at Bill Belichick. Like, we laugh about it, but it's not. And I did this. Unless you all started vomiting in his microphone. Like, let's be fair.
Morgan
I'm talking about that dude. Like seeing an 80 year old woman naked.
Amy
I mean, what about for women who have to see an 80 year old man naked?
Morgan
No, Amy, I always. I've said the Bill Belichick thing is weird for her. I'm props to him.
Bobby Bones
But you didn't say props to her.
Morgan
Like, I just don't understand.
Bobby Bones
There's a double standard.
Eddie
Is it props to her?
Morgan
I mean, I, I don't know how the dude does that.
Bobby Bones
Like how he does it.
Morgan
Yeah, I don't know. I. I see an 80 year old woman walking down the street and I'm.
Bobby Bones
Like, oh, but cher's not an 80 year old walking down the street. Also, why do you go, oh, an 80 year old woman. Stop looking at him like that, Creeper.
Morgan
Just walking.
Bobby Bones
Dude, why. Why are you thinking about an 80 year old like that?
Morgan
I mean, when a woman walks by.
Bobby Bones
He'S like, I see one and I. Why are you thinking about him naked?
Morgan
You don't think about women naked?
Bobby Bones
I don't think about it. I don't see every woman. And go wonder what she'd look like naked.
Morgan
No. Or you think about, would I no.
Bobby Bones
To an 80 year old? Yeah, that doesn't even possible.
Morgan
See, that's what I mean. That's why this guy. I don't. We gotta get him checked out, shares.
Bobby Bones
Ready to walk down the aisle again?
Morgan
No.
Bobby Bones
Nearly 50 years after the end of her second marriage, the singer is reportedly set to tie the knot with her boyfriend, Alexander Edwards, known as ae.
Amy
Does he have braces?
Eddie
What?
Amy
Not that it matters. I'm not. It just makes him look even younger.
Morgan
Oh, she does.
Bobby Bones
Because he is 40. It's not even 22.
Amy
He looks 22 though.
Bobby Bones
Cher doesn't give a hoot about their 40 year age difference and they're both ready to commit to each other. The bonus is if you marry somebody older like that, how long are they. You know, it's not like a lifetime commitment for you. It's like a possibly a decade or tomorrow.
Eddie
But you also know that you're getting in there and your spouse is going to die like before you.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you for sure know that.
Scuba Steve
Unless.
Eddie
Right. Who want. I don't want my. Like I want to die before myself.
Bobby Bones
Unless you want them to die because you're marrying them for. Yeah, yeah. The.
Morgan
How does he get with like, how.
Eddie
Does this dude, like, how do they.
Morgan
Meet and how does he be like, you know what, hey grandma, let's make out like.
Bobby Bones
The couple was first romantically linked in November 2022 and they were seen holding hands in Los Angeles. You know, there's a double standard, so I'm gonna say props to share.
Amy
Yeah.
Eddie
Are you saying that just to even it out?
Bobby Bones
I just want to be fair. Okay.
She looks great for 79 or 80. Yeah.
Morgan
Yeah, I mean, I guess.
Bobby Bones
Oh, I thought it was funny. The lunchbox said you guys don't see 80 year olds and vomit. No, dude.
Morgan
No.
Bobby Bones
Not once I've ever seen it.
Eddie
Sweet lady, can I hold the door for you?
Bobby Bones

Eddie
Oh, all right.
Bobby Bones
Was he Asian?
Amy
No, he was white.
Bobby Bones
And everybody's got their thing.
Amy
We get a shame and creepy, quite honestly. Like, he went from normal old white guy to instant creep. And I'm like, do you know I can see your phone? And you just don't care, or are you not thinking and not aware? Because, I mean, he's just like this, you know, scrolling wedding ring. Probably a granddad.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Amy
Vomit.
Eddie
But was he, like, zooming in or anything? Like. Or just kind of going, yeah, I mean, just.
Bobby Bones
But he had a bunch of accounts.
Amy
Just as fast as he could see him, he's swiping. I mean, occasionally be like, oh, yeah, there's my neighbor Jim. Like, I don't know.
Bobby Bones
In his feed was hot Asian girls.
Susie
He.
Amy
I don't know if it. It was his neighbor or who. He's falling. It could have been under his Discover or for you.
Morgan
What is wrong with that? What is wrong with liking women?
Like, oh, my gosh, let's shame a guy for, like, what if he looked at yours and like, oh, my gosh, this girl was just looking at a bunch of therapists and yogi people. Like, I mean, he could think you're creepy for that.
Amy
He might. And that is his opinion. That's totally fine. And I can feel weird about him sitting there as an older flipping through all these young girls.
Bobby Bones
You know, it was mostly that it was public. Like, he just didn't care because he's not doing anything illegal.
Amy
No, he's not at all. But I just was like, ew, ew, ew, ew. I don't know how else to describe it. Maybe vomit.
Bobby Bones
If you were to pull up your for you page, which I just did.
Amy
Okay.
Bobby Bones
What would be on there? I can give you some of my videos here. I have a lot of college football. Arkansas. I have Arkansas fired their offensive line coach. I have Russian salaries that will blow your mind.
So what do you do I have Elaine Kiffin just bought a house.
Eddie
Oh, cool.
Bobby Bones
In Baton Rouge. I have some watches, and I have different forms of bacon.
Eddie
You have no girls on there?
Bobby Bones
No. Do you want to see it? Just to prove it to you?
Eddie
I believe you.
Bobby Bones
Like, there are no girls. It's all sports. There's a golf club or, like, food. Like, healthy food.
Eddie
There's a girl in the middle. What's she?
Bobby Bones
That is Danielle Fishel, who does podcast.
Eddie
Click on that. Amy will shame you.
Morgan
Oh, yeah. Do not do that.
Same thing.
Amy
If y' all were sitting next to this guy, you'd be like, what in the world?
Bobby Bones
And that's. It's a video from her on Dancing with the Stars talking about it. So I think that's probably why it's in my feed. Do you want to see my whole feed? There are no girls on it.
Amy
No, we believe you.
Bobby Bones
It's all Asian girls. I pull mine up.
Amy, what's on yours?
Amy
So I pulled up just a little search thing. The first thing is my Sicilian mother's version of Mac and cheese.
Bobby Bones
So yours is a lot of cooking.
Amy
Jessica Simpson talking about OG Reality stars. Some girl at Target that bought a big, big, huge nutcracker. Reese's thing.
Bobby Bones
Pull yours up, Eddie.
Eddie
You want to see mine? See? Sure. It's a bunch of eyeliners.
Amy
Oh, this girl putting eyelash extensions on her eyebrows.
Bobby Bones
Nothing scandalous in yours or mine, Eddie. Just show it to me.
Eddie
There you go.
Bobby Bones
Do you have any girls?
Eddie
I'm peppered in, like, Jennifer Aniston's right there.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
There's a girl singing the national anthem.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. But just because it's a girl doesn't mean it's girls, you know?
Eddie
But it's mostly cowboys.
Bobby Bones
Like Dallas Cowboys.
Eddie
Dallas Cowboys. Michael Jackson. And Michael Jackson, for some reason.
Bobby Bones
But not, like, young. Because once in Eddie's algorithm is a bunch of dancing college girls.
Eddie
There was. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You don't know how they got there.
Eddie
I worked hard to get rid of that.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Anytime I saw a dancing college girl be like, no, get away.
Bobby Bones
Right.
Eddie
No more.
Bobby Bones
So we want to say, what about that guy, Amy?
Amy
Well, nothing. I just thought it was interesting. Like, I. I guess what I thought was most interesting is that he just was out there with it, you know, right there for the whole plane to see.
Bobby Bones
So then what I think we'll take from this segment is when you're in public, people are probably looking at your phone. Oh, for sure.
Amy
Definitely. Especially if you're over there swiping on.
Bobby Bones
Especially for some Asian women.
Amy
You're an old White man with a wedding, Asian women.
Bobby Bones
And if you're an old white man with a wedding ring, who's probably a grandma.
Amy
Yeah. Then I. Then I'm looking at you.
Bobby Bones
Okay, there's our lesson from this. It's time for the good news with Amy. Tell me something good.
Amy
So this is pretty cool. In Santa Clara, Utah, the entire community has turned into a huge advent calendar.
Bobby Bones
So an advent calendar is one of those things that you open. It's got chocolate in it.
Amy
Well, I mean, yes, it could be chocolate. It could be anything. It just.
Bobby Bones
I just learned about this last year.
Amy
Something is revealed each day leading. Leading up to Christmas.
Bobby Bones
That's crazy. You know, it was revealed to me during Christmas. Each day we're broke. Oh, every year. Yeah. Yeah. All the days leading up to it. Let's look at the new revelation. What's it gonna be? We're broke.
Eddie
Still broke.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Still broke.
Amy
So someone that lives in the community, Sherry Anderson, she's from the local historical society. She learned about this Swiss custom, and she brought it to her city. And each night, a different home or business puts up a new display, many of which took days to set up. So there was a lot of thought that went into this. But each night it goes from either house to business. And there's things like hot cocoa, and it'll go all the way up until Christmas Eve.
Bobby Bones
Oh, they serve and give you stuff at each house.
Amy
Yeah. Like, it's something for the town to do. Like, you go. You like. Oh, wait.
Bobby Bones
I would just be worried someone's casing me.
Eddie
Oh, every time.
Bobby Bones
Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, people are at the house. They're getting their hot cocoa. They're also looking around to see what nice the furniture and silverware you have.
Eddie
Yeah, that's what I'd worry about, because everyone's invited, right?
Bobby Bones
Everybody.
Amy
Oh, okay. Well, that part aside, no one's rejected.
Bobby Bones
From the advent calendar.
Amy
It is fun to be like, okay, where are we gonna go tonight? And then you get to go and you get to see what they put together. Such a fun way to bring the town together.
Bobby Bones
I like it. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good.
Then you turn the radio on, and the dial just keeps on turning. Then you hear Eddie Emmy launch box. Morgan, too Scooby trying to put you through. Mike D's riding this week's next bit. And Bobby's on the mic. So you know what this is?
This is the Bobby Bone over to Amy for the morning Corny.
Morgan
The morning Corny.
Amy
How does Santa keep track of all the fireplaces he's visited. He keeps a log.
Morgan
That was the morning.
Bobby Bones
Corny Lobby bone show Bonehead story of the day.
Morgan
This story comes to us from Louisiana. A 35 year old man got off the plane at the airport, drives to the parking garage, gets in his car. I can't pay to leave, I don't have a credit card. So he calls in a bomb threat, hoping they're just gonna open the gates and he'll be able to get out.
Eddie
Of there, let everyone out of there.
Bobby Bones
I mean.
Amy
Yeah, yeah, you gotta get out fast.
Bobby Bones
I mean, not a.
Eddie
They're gonna open the gate. They're not gonna keep him in there.
Bobby Bones
You just can't do it if you have a burner. No, don't do it. I can't even talk myself into it. I get as logic as logic, as flawed as it is. But if you call from your own phone, obviously they're going to know what's up. Okay.
Morgan
I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day.
Bobby Bones
Bones, I had a voicemail. I was wondering, Bobby, your New Year's resolution for last year was scratch off tickets and winning a certain amount. Did you ever complete that resolution? This is Lee in South Carolina. Thank you.
Eddie
Bye.
Bobby Bones
Bye. Completed as in win money. No, I've been pretty consistent on buying these scratch offs. I stopped bringing them to work because I was getting that scratch off dust everywhere. That sticks to my table. I'm like permanently scratch off dusted over here. I've lost so much money doing this. And then I went, I saw Mr. Beast. He bought a million dollars in scratch offs to scratch them all and see if they would win. And they lost so much money. So if you're gonna do a scratch off, understand that that is for entertainment. Odds are you're not gonna win.
Amy
But then there's so many stories of people winning.
Bobby Bones
Yes. That's called pr.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And those are fun to talk about. And we have listeners that have won. And it's what really inspired that resolution. Let me try this. I stopped keeping track of how much money I lost because it was taking the joy out of the scratch off tickets.
Amy
Oh, yeah. When you lose the joy, you gotta.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Why you gotta stop. Yeah, you should stop buying them. But instead I just stopped keeping track with how much I was losing. I'm probably.
Dozen or so down.
Amy
How many?
Eddie
You mumbled a little bit.
Bobby Bones
I know.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
No, I know, I know. Probably 5,000.
Eddie
What were you trying to hit? You were trying to hit a number.
Bobby Bones
I was trying to hit $500 or more.
Eddie
That's it, right?
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I had a couple $100.
Eddie
Oh.
Morgan
I thought it was a thousand.
Bobby Bones
Maybe it was. And I just lowered my standards. Yeah.
Morgan
I think. Oh.
Bobby Bones
Because I didn't even hit $500.
Morgan
That's rough.
Bobby Bones
So, still going. I stop at the gas station a lot. I bought some in Arkansas because sometimes I think maybe I need to see the state change. Yeah. Bought some in Arkansas. Nope. Bought some in Oklahoma. Nope. We got a flat tire in Oklahoma on Thanksgiving night as we waited there for an hour and a half for.
Eddie
Aaa.
Bobby Bones
Thank you to come. By the way, my foot was in a boot and my wife's pregnant, so get off me about aaa.
Eddie
It's fine, man.
Bobby Bones
And I was in her dad's truck, which I didn't know how to. There's a lot of stuff there. Okay. There's a lot happening. I just had surgery as we were there. I went in and bought tickets because I'm like, oh, maybe this was one of those moments where you're broken down. You go in, there's nothing to do except buy a ticket, spend 100 bucks on two 50 scratchers.00.
So I've tried.
Amy
I feel like there was a moment for you to win. That would have been it. And you didn't.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Because that would have been a great story.
Amy
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I think I thought so too. I thought I was drawn to it. So, no, I don't have that. But I appreciate you calling and asking. We will see you guys tomorrow. Tomorrow is our St. Jude radio THON. We have massive stars stopping by to play. Hopefully you become a partner in hope. We're very excited about that. But that is tomorrow. We'll see you guys then. Bye, everybody.
