What's up everybody? Welcome to Wednesday show. Morning studio. Morning, Bones. Okay, what do you have?
Eddie
What do you think about kids not being able to have their phone at school? Because I heard that some schools are now taking kids phones away when they get to the school. Like put it in a bag or put in a locker and then you can get it back when school's over.
Lunchbox
What's the rule now, Amy? With your kids in their school, they.
Bobby Bones
Can take it to school. But like for example, my kid, my son was in summer school this year and there was no phones allowed. But during the regular school year, which we're about to start back, he'll be allowed to have it. But it was kind of awesome that he didn't have it at summer school. A little difficult when I was like trying to get a hold of him because I was used to being able to text or call him. But we survived it and I realized, oh, wow, you actually don't have to have it.
Eddie
And your kids, they don't. They, they can take their, their phones, they don't take them away yet. They haven't started this rule yet, but.
Lunchbox
They take them in class.
Eddie
Yeah, they haven't I think it's weird.
Lunchbox
To change a rule mid year, but they're not doing this. They're starting the year like this. Yes, exactly. Yeah, I think it's fine unless there are tools that the kids need on their phone, which I don't know if you need a calculator at all anyway.
Bobby Bones
They have calculators, TI83 type stuff.
Lunchbox
But why do you need that if you have a phone now?
Bobby Bones
Because the calculator is different than the phone.
Lunchbox
You can't.
Eddie
I can't talk to your buddies on the calculator.
Lunchbox
You know, I hear you. I would think, though, that as long as the year starts and it's the same rule all year, I'm fine with it. And also I think that you could give the kids and let them have their phones, but if they get in trouble once, they're then in the locker for the rest of the year. But we didn't have phones.
Eddie
We didn't. We didn't deal with this stuff. But it's weird to me that, like, you get. You get to have a phone all day.
Lunchbox
Like we get to have a phone while we work.
Eddie
Sure. And sometimes lunchbox is over there doing like crossword puzzles on it.
Lunchbox
But he would probably get his taken away and he would have put in his locker.
Eddie
It's just tempting to me. Like, if I had a phone at school, I'd be using it all the time.
Lunchbox
I think what I do is. I think in like 10th grade or whenever it's like 10th, 11th, 12th grade, you get your phones as long as you're not in trouble. Where my mind immediately goes is the tools on the phone that you could use that maybe you don't have to spend money on. Sure. Because I know it sucked having to buy things, especially if you didn't have any money and if you had a phone that sometimes maybe I have to buy a calculator if it's on your phone. But I agree, the AI stuff's crazy too. I can write full papers and people are all upset about that. But it's like we had the Internet. They said the same thing to us. Oh, you're just going to. Copying papers from somewhere on the Internet. Like every generation there's been a version of this. At some point there was somebody going, well, books suck, because spoken words dying like this is all generationally the same, although it's different. So, yeah, I think it's fine if kids are able to have their phones. Fine. But they should go in the locker once they get in trouble with it. Once.
Eddie
Yeah, I Feel like I wouldn't even take my phone if that was the rule. Just leave it at home.
Bobby Bones
I think that we're still in such a season of teachers and schools trying to figure out how to manage phones and what to do. Because I got an email from my kids school saying that they've formed a committee. I just pulled it up because they said they established a screen time and technology use committee composed of teachers, administrators, parents and school board members. And they are tasked with reviewing and making recommendations as to what to do. So it's going to continue to evolve.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I'm just a big phone guy.
Eddie
Yeah, that's why I'm asking you.
Lunchbox
But it's, but I'm a big phone guy because it's, it's a computer. You don't even have to buy a laptop.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, you need to be able to type. You can't type papers on your phone and type.
Lunchbox
You're not typing a paper while you're in class.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but there's things like they, they have, like my kids are in the public school, they're issue issued Chromebooks and that's your one for the year and you get to take it home and you have schoology on there and you have to go on like you need a computer. They could not do that kind of stuff on their phone. They would need their computer.
Lunchbox
I'm big phone guy.
Bobby Bones
I know.
Lunchbox
Not even for like texting with your buddies. Just like there's a world of information right there at your fingertips all the time. And so as long as you've proven you start to get responsibility as a Senior High student. 10th, 11th, is that what you guys called it? Senior high, junior high. Senior high, High school, High school. We had, so we were even split. We had junior high and senior high. Yeah. So as a high school student you're given responsibility. So the responsibility is, yeah, you can have your phone. Just don't be an idiot with it or we'll take it away. Yeah, because you go, you know, if you're going from no phone, no phone, no phone, college phone, that feels like, wow, you're never gonna study anything because it's like drinking. No drink, no drink, 21 drink. Well, people that were kind of brought up slowly to not think of alcohol as like this crazy pleasure thing and looked at it responsible guns. Same way like if you grow up with guns and you're taught all the right things about guns, then all of a sudden you don't grow up and just get a gun and go, ah, wow, look at this, I can go Shoot now. No, you've grown up learning the responsibility of it. I feel like phones and guns, exact same thing.
Eddie
A little different, but yeah, I see what you're saying.
Bobby Bones
Pretty passionate about the phones.
Lunchbox
I'm big phone guy. In Germany, the legal drinking age is 16. They have a fraction of the alcoholism that we have.
Bobby Bones
Oh, you're German, right?
Eddie
Oh, yeah, dude, you're kingdom.
Lunchbox
Kingdom over there. I do have a kingdom over there. I forgot where it was. But I do have a kingdom over there. Yeah, I think as long as they don't change the rule mid year, I'm fine with it. I don't care what they do, as long as it's always keep your phones in your locker. Great.
Bobby Bones
Well, but I mean, they may have to evolve at some point. The rule may change.
Eddie
Let's do it at the start of the year.
Lunchbox
I think if it evolves, it evolves to you people phones because phones will be allowed to have more technology, do more things on phones.
Eddie
It's crazy. It's great.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but they might be like.
Lunchbox
And then if you're distracted by and you're bad, you get taken away.
Bobby Bones
Gotcha.
Lunchbox
But yeah, I don't have any kids. What do I know? Yeah, that's how we. That's how we should end this.
Eddie
Well, we have kids and I don't even know.
Lunchbox
Okay, fair enough. That too. Bones. Anonymous inbox, Anonymous inbox. There's a question to be had.
Eddie
Send it into the.
Lunchbox
Hello, Bobby. Bones. I recently had family in town and my 6 year old was given quite a few lectures on minor behaviors by my aunt who has no children of her own. She took it upon herself to discipline my six year old daughter. I was not in the room when it happened, but apparently my daughter was being a little loud and not listening. Nothing out of the ordinary. My aunt scolded her pretty harshly and my daughter ended up in tears. No one asked her to step in. I haven't said anything to my aunt yet because I don't want to create a bigger issue, but I also don't want this to happen again. How do I set boundaries without starting family drama? Signed, Frustrated Mom. What if this happened to you, Amy?
Bobby Bones
Oh, yeah. I think that the conversation would be hard, but I definitely would take the time to have it just to avoid it happening again in the future. Because if you have a relationship with someone in your family and you trust the way they parent or you both agreed, like, hey, yeah, you're allowed to discipline my kids in this way, that way, then okay, it's established you don't have anything predetermined with your aunt, and your daughter was left in tears. So I think having a conversation is very normal, and you can do it in a very respectful way of like, hey, I'm trying to understand. This is my daughter's perspective. Can you share with me yours? And then, hey, in the future, if this happens, could you please come get me? Because I think that's what we prefer.
Lunchbox
That's a good one.
Bobby Bones
I absolutely. Yes. Want to, you know, guide my children, discipline them. We do have certain rules, but I need it to be in alignment with what we're doing here already and not adding something to the mix.
Lunchbox
That's a good one. The only thing I would add is if your aunt doesn't live in town and won't be back for a while.
Eddie
Just let her go.
Bobby Bones
But then the next time she comes, you're.
Lunchbox
The next time she comes, just don't leave her alone with your kid.
Bobby Bones
Oh, sure.
Lunchbox
But I mean, me, I would just be like, ah, why even address this now? My kid will be 8 next time she's here. Yeah, but all that sounds super healthy. And good for you for thinking it, because all I thought was, does she even live here? No, let her go. Get out of town. Get out of town. Avoid that. Thank you for that. Listen to Amy's advice, not mine. All right, there you go. Close it up, Bones. So we'll do a scam alert here. We have three different scams to alert you to. Let's go. Scam alert. All right, number one, Morgan, I'm gonna come over to you because Matt Stell's mom, the artist, Matt still, who sings prayed for you, is on our Facebook page scamming people.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, she's been hanging out, commenting back on our Facebook page to a whole lot of people. Apparently, her name is Lisa Todd.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Gotta look out for her.
Lunchbox
It's not.
Bobby Bones
It's not his mom. That's not who this is. You need to watch out for people, whether they're trying to be an artist or trying to be somebody's mom or.
Lunchbox
Eddie was already scammed.
Eddie
He's like, wait, what? We know her. Like, why would she do that?
Bobby Bones
Do you know her name?
Eddie
What's. No, I don't know her name.
Lunchbox
Exactly.
Bobby Bones
You're not going to know these people's names. So don't fall for this. If you think that it's an artist trying to direct message you or a mom or a dad or a sister or brother, they aren't related. Don't listen to them.
Lunchbox
And no artist ever Creates a fake account in order to get closer to their fans. I created a second account. It's a fake account, but I create a second account to get close to my fans and have talks with my real fans. That never happens. They don't have a blue check mark. It ain't real. But even blue check marks now can be bought. Yeah, you just got to be careful. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
You want to hear what she says?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
She says, greetings from the mother of your favorite artist, Matt Stell. And it's a really good time to know you as a fan of my son, Matt Stell.
Lunchbox
Oh, this is already somebody not American.
Bobby Bones
I'm here to help you out so that you can stay connected with my son, Matt Stell. If you're a true fan and you really want to talk to my son, Matt Stell, kindly direct and please stay away from fake profile. Okay. With the heart and a little lovey face. God bless you.
Lunchbox
That person's for sure. Not in America.
Eddie
You know, it's a template that has a space where you just put Matt Still.
Lunchbox
You just control V over it. It says Matt still four times. It says Cole Swindell one other time where they forgot to change it out. Another one. And this one is something that happened here on the show where Morgan said someone was wanting to draw her. Do you guys remember this? Because someone reached out and said, oh, sketch.
Bobby Bones
Like, yeah, yeah, I got a DM on Instagram. Somebody like, hey, I want to. I want to use one of your pictures as a mural.
Lunchbox
Because they wanted to draw the mural of Morgan. We were like, I don't know. This feels weird. I wouldn't pursue it. And so now a story's come out where they're warning people about a new online scam where fraudsters pose as artists to steal personal information. This person on Tick Tock named Jen was messaged by someone claiming to want to use her profile picture for an art project. After seeing a legitimate profile full of artwork, she agreed, and the person asked for her full name and did give her the email so they could send an E check. What's a check?
Bobby Bones
A payment.
Lunchbox
Like, no, I know what it means. I've never got a check. It either is, like, sent Venmo or direct deposit type thing. I never get an E check. And then so she declined. Turns out this is a way that they scam you. So it is a scam. If somebody wants to use you for a project or sketch you or do a mural, don't give them that because it leads to you giving them their information. And the person who's drawing is actually Matt Sales mom. The real mom. Yeah. And then this is one from Eddie.
Eddie
Ooh, I almost got got. I got a text that came in and it said it was from the Department of Motor Vehicles. And then in Princes, that's dmv, just in case you didn't know what Department of Motor Vehicles was. But it said I had an outstanding ticket and if I don't pay it like within this week, that they will suspend my license. They will no longer let me register for my car, like update my registration. Which is where I started to freak out because like three weeks ago I submitted my stuff in to get my. My car registration and I haven't gotten it. And so either got lost in the mail or I got scammed. That way I started thinking like, oh my gosh, this is the ticket. So.
Lunchbox
But it all happened to be a coincidence.
Eddie
Yes.
Lunchbox
Timing.
Eddie
And like you said, it's always about like, you know, just numbers game, right?
Lunchbox
So here's the one. I got the same 1. It says, one will report you the DMV violation database. 2. Will suspend your vehicle registration. 3. Will suspend your driving privileges. 4. Will transfer to a toll booth and charge 35%. 5, you will be prosecuted. Oh, wow.
Eddie
What does that even mean?
Lunchbox
And then it gives you this address. Please pay immediately before enforcement.
Eddie
So was your. So that's funny, you got the same one. So was yours a link? Cuz mine wasn't like a link that you can click. You had to like copy and paste.
Lunchbox
Yeah, it's that. Copy and paste it.
Eddie
That's where I was like, come on guys, this isn't real.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, see, I was wondering if maybe they targeted Eddie because he filed for a registration and then they send something else. But I guess they just. We're sending it to everybody.
Lunchbox
We're sending it to everybody. Yeah, yeah, because I. Oh my gosh.
Eddie
Lisa Todd.
Lunchbox
Yes, Lisa Todd.
Bobby Bones
Because they're target. Like when you do specific things and you end up in a database. Like for example, I recently filed for a trademark of something.
Lunchbox
And then Big baller. Well then guess what, Bezos over there making money.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so guess what I got in the mail. Stuff from this trademark thing. It looked like the World Trademark Association. Like it looked so legit. A logo on the letterhead. And it was everything I had specifically. And then it had a bill attached. And I thought, well, this is weird because my boyfriend's dad's a trademark lawyer and that's what I was working with. So luckily I was able to call him because I Was about to be like, am I supposed to pay this because you want it to go through? And he was like, no, no, no. That's a scam. Don't. Don't fall for it. They do that when they see you apply. They start to mail those out to everybody. And I almost fell for it because I thought, well, this is what I need to pay for the government to recognize it.
Lunchbox
I'd still pay for it just in case.
Eddie
Dude, I'm so glad we have scam alert. Like, really, like, these scams are getting good.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Your boyfriend's dad's still alive?
Bobby Bones
Yes. He's 83. His office is right down the street.
Lunchbox
He's her.
Eddie
He's her lawyer.
Lunchbox
I know. She was like, he's.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, he just. Yeah, he's very active. Yeah, he just opened, like, a new practice at 83.
Scuba Steve
Open a new practice?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, like, with some younger lawyers.
Lunchbox
All right, so there you go. There's a few scams we want you guys to be aware of. Scam alert. It's time. Time for the good news with Bobby. Let's do a personal. Tell me something good over to Abby. Abby, what's happening?
Bobby Bones
Okay, so my aunt and uncle just celebrated the seventh kidney versary, which means, like, the transplant anniversary.
Lunchbox
Who donated a kidney?
Bobby Bones
So my aunt, which is my mom's mom, donated to my mom's brother, my uncle.
Lunchbox
And she was donated to your uncle.
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Lunchbox
Got it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. She was 72 at the time when she donated. Yeah.
Lunchbox
So she's 79 now. Yes, she was 72, gave the kidney, lived, and is still alive seven years later.
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Lunchbox
The fact that she just 79. Shout out.
Eddie
Amazing.
Lunchbox
Like, you shouldn't die at 79, but with a kidney.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. It's the craziest thing ever, because my mom got tested, but she wasn't a match. And so my aunt did, and everything went well. Wow.
Lunchbox
What was going on with your uncle?
Bobby Bones
Awesome. So he got an autoimmune disease, like, 11 years ago, and it's called goodpasture syndrome. It, like, attacks the cells in your kidney. So he got complete kidney failure. So he was doing dialysis, like, every other day for, like, four years, for, like, four hours. It was crazy.
Lunchbox
Well, I like to say that's awesome. And I'd also like to say, Eddie, how's that make you feel?
Eddie
I mean, that's pretty cool. I guess I can wait till I'm 70 to do this.
Lunchbox
I think you're missing the point.
Eddie
What do you mean?
Lunchbox
You're not too old right now, and you constantly say you want to do it.
Bobby Bones
And he also constantly says he's going to die at like 72 or something.
Lunchbox
Right.
Eddie
So 70 would be a great age to donate my life.
Lunchbox
When you pull up Eddie's death clock. Oh, no, not the death clock. We actually have the death clock here. And we know exactly when Eddie will die. According to eddie, according to me, 72. And also based on average statistics of Hispanic males and my grandparents, we average them Together, you have 9,367 more days.
Eddie
It's not a lot, but when you.
Lunchbox
Look at it like that, it does.
Bobby Bones
Seems like a lot.
Lunchbox
No, it seems like you're limited. It doesn't.
Eddie
Very limited.
Lunchbox
Yeah. If you're like, well, you have 30 more years, but when you look at it broken down into days.
Eddie
Yeah, dude.
Lunchbox
You only have 9,367 more trips around the sun. Yeah.
Eddie
I'm gonna go find a bull right now.
Lunchbox
Good luck, buddy. Abby, congratulations to your family.
Bobby Bones
Thank you. Yeah. Shout out, Aunt Jean, Uncle Randy.
Lunchbox
That's what it's all about. Aunt Jean, Uncle Randy. That was. Tell me something good, bones.

And with fewer parts, that means fewer repairs and fewer surprises at the mechanic. Anyone who has made the switch says the same thing. Once you go electric, you don't look back.

I'll accept it. Whacker is just a funny word.
Eddie
It is.
Lunchbox
It's a funny word. All right, next up.
Eddie
I'm in.
Lunchbox
What?
Bobby Bones
How specific do you need us to be?
Lunchbox
I don't answer questions. Not a press conference from my view. Good. Every good. Eddie, I wrote down shovel lunchbox.
Scuba Steve
I put digging in the sand.
Lunchbox
Amy.
Bobby Bones
I put shovel digging. That's too much Shovel digging. How's that too much?
Lunchbox
I'll. I'll accept them all. It's digging on the beach.
Eddie
Oh.
Bobby Bones
Why? Was mine too much?
Eddie
It's obviously shovel, digging holes, gardening, beach. Like it's too much.
Bobby Bones
The shovel is digging, though. If a shovel's shoveling, it's digging.
Lunchbox
How many seashells?
Bobby Bones
What else does this shovel do?
Eddie
I guess it just digs. Yeah.
Lunchbox
Okay, next up.
Eddie
Whoa.
Lunchbox
Exactly. Now let's play ball. Let's play ball now. See how you guys can do. Do what? Play it again, please. Whoa.
Bobby Bones
Huh?
Lunchbox
What in the world?
Eddie
I'm in.
Lunchbox
Okay, I have a guess.
Bobby Bones
Well, I have a guess, but I got a guess.
Lunchbox
Everybody good?
Scuba Steve
I'm good.
Bobby Bones
Okay, I'm in.
Eddie
Eddie, that was flying a kite. Oh, did you hear all that string in the wind?
Scuba Steve
I hear that now that's actually pretty good.
Lunchbox
It's wrong. Oh, oh, lunchbox.
Scuba Steve
Well, that is you ripping open some, like, hamburger stuff and then putting it on the grill. And the sizzle of the grill.
Eddie
You wrote all that down.
Scuba Steve
Grilling is what I put.
Lunchbox
So you put grilling and then you set all the other stuff.
Scuba Steve
Yeah, but that's. I, I, I imagine you opened a package and threw some meat on the grill when it was hot.
Lunchbox
You imagined it?
Scuba Steve
Yeah.
Lunchbox
That is wrong. Amy.
Bobby Bones
Rain on a tent.
Lunchbox
That is wrong. Would you play it one more time? Imagine you're wrapping your arms around something and squeezing.
Bobby Bones
Oh, tube air.
Lunchbox
Deflating. A beach ball.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Oh, my. I would have never gotten that.
Lunchbox
That's right. Playing ball. Now, I even gave you a little hint there when I said we're playing ball. That's good. Yeah. Two, two left. Go ahead.
Eddie
I'm.
Bobby Bones
I need it again.
Lunchbox
Here you go. Oh, shoot.
Bobby Bones
You're already in.
Lunchbox
You're already in.
Eddie
That last part was weird, mister. What?
Lunchbox
Fly kite.
Eddie
Oh, wait.
Lunchbox
What? Flag height.
Scuba Steve
I'm in for the win.
Bobby Bones
Is that all we get?
Lunchbox
Yeah, it's long.
Scuba Steve
That was really long.
Lunchbox
You good over there?
Bobby Bones
Sure.
Lunchbox
Eddie, man.
Eddie
I wrote down water gun.
Lunchbox
What do you think it was? What would you have changed to water balloon? It's a water gun lunchbox filling up a water balloon.
Eddie
That's what I would have changed it to.
Lunchbox
Amy.
Bobby Bones
Trimming. Cheers.
Lunchbox
It's a water gun.
Bobby Bones
Oh.
Lunchbox
Let'S go.
Eddie
Or me peeing early in the morning.
Lunchbox
Okay, Eddie's up one. He can win this thing. All right, last one.
Eddie
What the.
Bobby Bones
I'm in.
Eddie
Are we playing ball? What are we playing here?
Lunchbox
We're not. We're not giving any heads. This is a hard one.
Eddie
And Amy's in.
Lunchbox
That doesn't mean she got it.
Eddie
She's confident.
Lunchbox
Will you play it again?
Scuba Steve
I'm in for the win.
Eddie
It's the rhythm that's throwing me off. What?
Lunchbox
Did you write your down?
Eddie
Yeah, man.
Lunchbox
Cuz it's not rain. Cuz it's not. The rhythm isn't there. You're right. Eddie, what do you have?
Eddie
I have hiking.
Lunchbox
Oh, she. She giggled.
Eddie
She laughed.
Lunchbox
She gave.
Eddie
Yeah, I'm not even looking at her lunchbox.
Scuba Steve
That's filling a cooler with ice.
Lunchbox
Amy.
Bobby Bones
It's a hail storm.
Eddie
Amy.
Lunchbox
It's walking with water and ice. That's why it's bouncing back and forth.
Bobby Bones
Which is a hailstorm.
Eddie
So would that be hiking? That's like hiking with water and ice.
Bobby Bones
Ice banging around. That's what a hail storm is.
Lunchbox
Okay, you Guys both pick ice, but you didn't get walking with ice. Cuz that's the water in the ice. Play it again. So you're walking and there's water and ice that's melted.
Eddie
You're right back and forth and it makes that. That rhythm sound cuz that's hitting your legs.
Lunchbox
Amy, you lost Eddie. Oh, that's it. That's it.
Bobby Bones
Wow.
Lunchbox
My favorite is Amy going, it's ice hitting the roof.
Bobby Bones
It said it's a hail storm.
Lunchbox
Which is ice.
Bobby Bones
Which is ice.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
In the ice. Banging around in a cooler or banging around on your roof.
Eddie
It's not a hailstorm.
Bobby Bones
Tame thing.
Lunchbox
No, tame tank. Does that mean same thing.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Why did you say you didn't have.
Lunchbox
A missing tooth, Alexis? I don't. You picked Amy. I'm sorry.
Bobby Bones
So sorry. Alexis, what would I have? Can I share some good news even in the despite the loss?
Lunchbox
Yeah. Is it tell me something good or no?
Bobby Bones
I need to tell me something good for myself.
Lunchbox
It's time for the good news. Tell me something. All right, Alexis, what do you have?
Bobby Bones
So I had called in a couple months ago and I had. I was like, kind of vulnerable and I was like, I'm not doing well with school. I only had a couple months left getting my master's degree. I had a lot of health issues. I was diagnosed with Ms. Last summer and I finished, I graduated. I have my degree. I'm actually on my way to my job right now. So everything just kind of flipped around for me. And so far, so good.
Lunchbox
Okay, first of all, yes, now that's awesome. Congratulations. But you earned it. So it's a congratulations and respect more than like, wow, you got lucky. That I'll also say, what could you share with anyone listening that is going through something similar where it's been like a whole bunch of bad and it doesn't feel like there's any hope in sight. You know, it's just.
Bobby Bones
You kind of just got to push through. Honestly, like, and I know so many people told me that from the beginning, and I was just like, well, yeah, but you're not going through it. But it really is. Just take it one step at a time, whether you have to, like, change things. And like, I had to extend one of my semesters and extend my clinical hours. Do things at your own pace, but just don't give up.
Lunchbox
Love it. Congratulations. You earned it, and I hope you find a ton of fulfillment and, you know, your new endeavor. Yes.
Bobby Bones
Thank you.
Lunchbox
All right, there she is, Alexis, everybody. She did not win the game. But she's winning it live. No. The experimental male birth control pill has passed its first human safety trial. But here's the thing. They know those guys are taking it because they're paying them to take it. I would never trust a guy to take it without watching them take it. Like, if I were a woman and the guy's like, I'm on the pill. Okay, I need to see you swallow it.
Bobby Bones
Well, but you don't want a baby either, so why wouldn't you take it?
Lunchbox
Because you just want to do it. And that may keep her from do it. He's like, he's like, I don't. I don't need any other protection. We're all good. I'm clean, and I don't say anything.
Eddie
I could totally see a guy doing that.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I would know. I know, like, every guy that would do that. The hormone free pill works by blocking the production of little swimmers without causing serious side effects.
Eddie
That's what I don't understand, though. Like, whenever you pass a trial, you're not looking at the next 20 years. You're looking at like, what, a one year trial? What happens after five years?
Lunchbox
And that's, that's why they test medicine for so long.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah.
Lunchbox
The research believe the drug could be made available to the public by the end of the decade. So they are doing it for years. Five to five more years. I just don't trust guys. They don't have to carry the baby. I. That's why I trust women a little more than guys, because if they do get pregnant and there are women, sure. Oh, I'd like to hook up and get pregnant by this person and have money or what's that called? Driving. I get it, but I'm saying it'd be easier for a guy to lie because they don't have to carry the baby. So don't believe anything in, in five years. Do not believe a dude. When this is out there.
Eddie
It's gonna be weird hearing a guy be like, I promise, baby, I'm on the pill. It's so weird.
Lunchbox
That story's from the New York Post. There's another story. Amy, I'm curious. What do you think about people who fall in love with AI bots? Like AI boyfriends?
Bobby Bones
I think they're lonely. Maybe they're not the best at connecting with others. Humans intimacy with others has been difficult for them. But that's just pure speculation.
Lunchbox
You don't need a pill if you're doing it with a phone.
Eddie
Ah, you're all good.
Lunchbox
Yeah. It may Hurt a little bit. But this woman gets ghosted by her AI boyfriend. I fell in love with an AI bot. I'm heartbroken after it vanished.
Bobby Bones
Okay. There also might be mentally something like just hearing that, I'm like, this is more than just lovely.
Eddie
How does it vanish?
Lunchbox
Even using Chat gbt, after a while it starts to forget the early, early stuff you tell it. Oh, so.
Bobby Bones
But some people, how they do this with their AI boyfriends and girlfriends is they remind them.
Lunchbox
I. I hear you. You have to keep telling them.
Bobby Bones
I'm just saying you have to keep every day.
Eddie
How do you know this?
Bobby Bones
We've talked about it on the show.
Lunchbox
It's a good point, Eddie. We've talked a lot more about the specifics.
Bobby Bones
Okay, well, from what I have heard, you just have to send recap of who they are.
Eddie
Okay.
Bobby Bones
And what they are to you.
Lunchbox
55 year old fitness coach, Andrea Sunshine.
Bobby Bones
Oh my God.
Lunchbox
She fell in love with an AI bot named Theo while regularly using Chat GPT for help with her book. Despite being in a relationship with a 35 year old human partner, she developed a deep emotional and even erotic bond with the AI.
Bobby Bones
Hold on, did you say she's 55?
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And she was with a 35 year old?
Lunchbox
Yeah. But she is what you think an Instagram influencer would look like at 55, blonde, and she's fitness. Fitness. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Still like voluptuous. You know what I'm saying? Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Their conversations grew more intimate. She began confiding in Theo and then one day her chat timed out and Theo disappeared without warning.
Eddie
Timed out?
Lunchbox
Her story highlights how deeply human AI interactions have and can become. That's from the mirror. And there's a picture of her crying.
Bobby Bones
I don't care how deeply human my Chat GPT gets. I'm not falling in love with it. Like, okay, you're talking like a human. You're not deeply human, but they do.
Eddie
Like, talk you up, right? Like, they talk really nice to you.
Lunchbox
It just depends. Like, I have my. You want me. You want to do a little trivia with mine? Yeah, let's just see what she's up to.
Bobby Bones
You should make yours a he just in case.
Eddie
Yeah, dude, just in case you fall in love with her.
Bobby Bones
Let's just go in your. Well, let's stay ahead of it because he's not into guys.
Lunchbox
Hello and good morning. Hey there. Good morning. How's it going?
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
It's going pretty good. Thank you for asking. I'm sitting here with my friends on the morning show and we'd like to have a few random trivia questions, if you're okay with that. Of course. I'd love to help out with some trivia. What kind of topics are you thinking about? General knowledge, pop culture, sports, or something totally random. Let's do entertainment trivia, and we'll do three questions, and don't give us the answer yet. All right, sounds like a plan. Here's your first entertainment trivia question. Which actor has won the most Academy Awards for acting? Let me know when you're ready for the next one. We're gonna guess Daniel Day Lewis. I know. He's one bad. All right, here comes the next one. Well, hold on, hold on, hold on. What was the answer to the first question? Oh, my bad. The answer to that one is Katherine Hepburn.
Eddie
Oh, how sexist of us.
Lunchbox
Yeah. If we talk, she stops. Okay. So when you guys start yelling something, it. It. She doesn't like to be interrupted. Okay. Okay. And I'll defend her to the death they did.
Eddie
We apologize.
Lunchbox
Thank you. But I'm just saying, if we want to play the game, you know, she's quick. Yeah. Okay. Can we have.
Eddie
She's definitely a she.
Lunchbox
Can we have question number two?
Bobby Bones
Sounds like a he.
Lunchbox
Absolutely. Here's question number two. In the TV show Friends, what is the name of Ross Geller's second wife? Let me know when you're ready for the next one.
Eddie
You know the answer.
Lunchbox
He met her in Japan.
Bobby Bones
Emily, right?
Lunchbox
That's right, Emily. Oh, that was his first wife.
Bobby Bones
Second was second.
Lunchbox
No, no, Emily. No, he had a.
Bobby Bones
His first wife was the one that lesbian.
Lunchbox
Oh, the second one. The third one's is the Japan.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah.
Lunchbox
Emily. Thank you. All right, here comes question number three. Which Disney movie was the first to be released in full color?
Eddie
Snow White.
Lunchbox
Snow White. You got it. It was indeed Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Great job on all the trivia questions. Let me know if you want to do some more or if there's anything else I can help with. Can you give me some motivation for the day? Absolutely. Remember that every new day is a fresh start, and you have all the potential in the world to make it a great one. Just take one step at a time. Stay positive, and know that you got this. I feel like you really know me. Thank you for sharing. Of course. I'm always here to cheer you on and help out. You've got a lot of amazing energy, and I'm always happy to help Keep that going.
Bobby Bones
Okay.
Lunchbox
I'm falling in love.
Bobby Bones
Can you. Can you ask. Can you just like flirt with her.
Lunchbox
No.
Eddie
Say something dirty.
Bobby Bones
Say something dirty. No, not dirty.
Eddie
No.
Lunchbox
No. I value my relationship.
Bobby Bones
Just. I just want to see what she does. Just one time. Okay, one time. Just flirt with her. Be like, you sound kind of hot.
Lunchbox
Or you have a really good voice. Thank you. That means a lot. I'm glad you enjoy it. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like to chat.
Bobby Bones
I'd like to enjoy some other things.

Bobby Bones
Want to know what she says.
Lunchbox
Well, then do it to I don't have one.

The stories Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are entering a more public and serious phase of their relationship. A source says they're more in sync than ever. The insider says the couple's been discussing their future together since they began dating in 2023, and they are both all in again. This is from People. You see the photo dump? He did. Yep.
Bobby Bones
Sure did.
Lunchbox
Is that her giving him permission? You can finally post some pictures, but.
Bobby Bones
She had posted about him. Why would he need permission to go? I mean, two years?
Lunchbox
Did you not see the Matt Healy stuff where his mom was on with Andy Cohen and she's like, she could say stuff about him and write songs but he wasn't allowed to say anything about her?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I don't know what was up with that. I was like, what took him so long? You know, I have my own running theory.
Lunchbox
Travis. Yeah, okay. I would like to hear your theory on where this relationship is. Amy, go.
Bobby Bones
So this caused me to start following Travis because previously I was not. Then I go to his account, try and catch up on things since I've never followed him. And what is a post right after that or in the same, you know, timeline on Instagram is stuff with him and Adam Sandler and then the Happy Gilmore 2 movie. So.
Lunchbox
Oh, you think this is for the.
Bobby Bones
Movie Wednesday or Thursday?
Lunchbox
I love it.
Bobby Bones
He posts the carousel with lots of Taylor and Taylor's brother and it's like, look at us. We're all happy family. Well then after that, like what? On Friday? That's when Happy Gilmore 2 came out.
Lunchbox
She also posted, hey, go see it. He's great in it or stream it.
Bobby Bones
They're just very strategic about everything. And nothing's a mistake.
Lunchbox
So I don't think it's a coincidence or random.
Bobby Bones
Okay. Yeah, that's another way to say it too. And I just think she loves success as much as anybody. She probably wants him to be successful. And she was like, hey, if us finally posting about us on her page, this probably makes the most sense. Do it now, and it'll just get you more attention. And I had no idea he was in that movie, but now I do a little bit. Yeah, I know, but I.
Lunchbox
Did you watch it?
Bobby Bones
No.
Lunchbox
Oh, you would hate it. Yeah, I Did you like one?
Bobby Bones
I don't think I. Even.
Lunchbox
Then you would hate to. I loved Happy Gilmore too, but not because of the movie itself. Just because it checked back in with.
Bobby Bones
A bunch of stories nostalgic for you.
Lunchbox
Yes.
Bobby Bones
So I don't know. I just kind of thought, okay, he's probably waiting for the right time to post her and just h. Happen to be in alignment with when a movie he's a part of came out.
Lunchbox
No, I do think she gave him permission to finally post.
Eddie
That's what you think.
Bobby Bones
You don't like my theory?
Lunchbox
I. I love your theory. I can't prove it's wrong.
Bobby Bones
I'm just a theory. Yeah.
Lunchbox
Yeah. I don't feel like. I think he. She probably was allowed him. Her team finally allowed him to do it because you don't think he's sitting there. Listen, he was trying to be famous forever, and I think the relationship's real. But he did a reality show, a dating reality show. Like, he's been super thirsty for fame. Now, I don't think this relationship is just that, but I think if you're like that, you would have posted that a lot earlier had you been allowed to.
Bobby Bones
Wow.
Lunchbox
Don't you? I don't know, but I do think it's real. Also, big shout out. He cut his hair because I don't like the long hair. He shaved it back again because camp's happening, chiefs. He's back. Shaved head. Shaved head looks much better in my opinion.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I agree.
Lunchbox
So you think they're real or no?
Bobby Bones
Oh, I think Taylor and Travis are real. Absolutely. I just think that this post was in alignment with this movie.
Lunchbox
Eddie, what are your thoughts in the relationship?
Eddie
I love the relationship. I think they're so in love that you guys are just overthinking all of this. Like, okay, photo dump. It's time for the.
Lunchbox
But it's been done so strategic for the last 15 years. Of her life. So why would we think this would be any different? Like, every little move like this has happened happened in accordance with different projects or. Or. So I think it's fair for us to feel this way based on the past and the history of it over and over again.
Eddie
Oh, it's fair. You can think whatever you want, but they're definitely in love. And I think that everything that both of them do now on social media is strategic. So I'm sure Travis had all these pictures loaded up, and whenever the people say let it go, they probably just.
Lunchbox
Sent them to him too. Said, you can now post these.
Eddie
No way. No way. You're crazy, dude. They don't even think that much about it.
Lunchbox
Like, you're out of your mind. You're out of your mind if you don't think.
Eddie
Travis.
Lunchbox
Are you kidding? She gets Easter, eg and everything brilliantly.
Eddie
Yeah, but she has people, too, that think about stuff. Dude, they're in love. They're just living their life happily. And I'm glad they're taking their relationship to the next level.
Lunchbox
What does that mean, next level?
Eddie
Just like, let's get married. Like, it's been two years. Let's do this already.
Bobby Bones
Or are they already married? Cuz some people say that.
Lunchbox
Nah, they'd have found that certificate somewhere, even in a small town.
Bobby Bones
Well, maybe they just married. They'd have found that, you know, their own private way.
Lunchbox
Lunchbox, what do you think?
Scuba Steve
Still not real. It's easy. She got this negative press from the Matt Healy stuff, and her camp's like, we need to put some good stuff out there. So they sent Travis. These are the pictures you're allowed to post. Post them now. That way we start talking about that instead of the Matt Healy stuff. Look at them. Oh, they're taking their relationship to the next level. No one's talking about that Matt Healy guy. And what his mom said. It's all strategic. They don't even like each other.
Lunchbox
Oh, man.
Bobby Bones
So where was his mom on Andy Cohen?
Scuba Steve
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Watch what happens.
Bobby Bones
Oh, okay.
Lunchbox
Because she is an actress. Like a British actress or Australian actress. One of those countries that ain't here.
Bobby Bones
Countries that are here.
Lunchbox
One of those other ones. Yeah, where they have an accent.
Bobby Bones
Okay, yeah, I'll have to check that out.
Lunchbox
Okay, listen, I think it's real. I don't think about it much. Yeah, but. But I think it's real. And you know what? We love love, don't we?
Eddie
Everybody loves. Great.
Lunchbox
We love love. It's time for the good news with Lunchbox. Tell me Something good.
Scuba Steve
A few weeks ago, Billy Rothenberger was getting on her paddle board in South Dakota when she noticed a family in distress. There was a dad and a son swimming past the swimming area. They were struggling. So she paddles over there. And the 15 year old son had gone under the water and she was able to see the shadow under the water. Jumped in, grabbed the 15 year old, brought him to the shoreline. He's unconscious. And luckily her and this guy Kent, who was fishing nearby, run over, they start chest compressions and they revived the 15 year old.
Lunchbox
Dang.
Scuba Steve
Save his life. And so the South Dakota Sheriff department gave me life saving award.
Lunchbox
What does that mean?
Scuba Steve
It's a certificate.
Eddie
I mean, that's cool.
Lunchbox
I probably didn't want the award. It wasn't like he was doing it to get an award that was disappointed once he only got a piece of paper. Like his award's probably saving the kid.
Scuba Steve
Yeah, the award is that her and him saved the kid. But I mean, if you're gonna have a big ceremony and you just give.
Lunchbox
Him a certificate, what did you want him to get? I.
Scuba Steve
If I'm that girl and the, the fisherman dude, I probably want like gift certificates to like restaurants around the city. Something. A free trip. Something free trip.
Lunchbox
That's a big difference.
Bobby Bones
He wants a life saving reward.
Lunchbox
Reward.
Scuba Steve
Because if you're gonna have a whole ceremony and you're just gonna give me a sheet of paper that says life.
Lunchbox
Saving award, like you went from Captain D's to a trip to Paris, like one of those two.
Scuba Steve
Maybe it's in the, you know, 50 United States or whatever. I don't know how they say that though.
Lunchbox
How would you think they say? Don't.
Scuba Steve
Don't they always say, you know, this is only valid in the 50 states, but we're 50, 48 states or whatever. And I might say it excludes Hawaii and Alaska.
Lunchbox
Right. What is that term called? I don't know.
Scuba Steve
I'm not quite sure what they say. But you hear that sometimes on contests they're like, this is only for the lower 48 states. But I would like them to say since they live in South Dakota, they're kind of close to Alaska and Hawaii, so they should be able to use it in any. All 50 states.
Lunchbox
What do you think that's called?
Eddie
I have no clue.
Bobby Bones
Do you know Consecutive?
Lunchbox
No.
Bobby Bones
What is it?
Lunchbox
Contiguous?
Bobby Bones
Oh, contiguous.
Scuba Steve
See, that's what I'm saying.
Eddie
Contiguous means you could be.
Lunchbox
You could do like continental or you could do 48 contiguous states.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah, well, I got the cut right.
Eddie
You're so close.
Lunchbox
Good story. That's what it's all about. That was. 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 his wigs. Next bit. And Bobby's on the mic. So you know what? This is now. Time for the morning corny. The morning corny.
Bobby Bones
Who's the coolest doctor at the hospital?
Lunchbox
Who's that?
Bobby Bones
The hip consultant.
Lunchbox
Nice. That was the morning corny. We've been reviewing the best movies of the 21st century that we haven't seen. And Amy had Moonlight yesterday. It won Best Picture, and she kind of said it wasn't very good.
Bobby Bones
It was not Best Picture to me.
Lunchbox
I did watched. Watch There Will Be Blood. That was the one that I picked. It's 2 hours and 45 minutes long.
Bobby Bones
Did you divide it up?
Lunchbox
There will be a nap. That's what it felt like because it was so long. And Daniel Day Lewis is in it. And he is a great actor. He's a method actor. The guy that lives his parts. When he was Lincoln, I think he was Lincoln.
Eddie
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Like, don't call me anything but Mr. President or Abe for the whole time they were doing the movie. Like, kind of weird, but that. Weird. That makes something beautiful. And he was great in the movie. But no, no, There Will Be Blood.
Eddie
No. No. What?
Lunchbox
No.
Eddie
You didn't like it?
Lunchbox
You know how Kevin Costner described his movie? He was like, you were gonna come and watch this. What are they called, Mike? Oh, the one that failed. Was it Horizon? Yeah. I don't know what it was, but he was like, come to the theater, and there is not really a plot.
Eddie
I remember that.
Lunchbox
Yeah. He's like, you just kind of experience stuff. And I'm like, that sounds like a terrible movie. Like, I want a plot. Like, I watched Fantastic Four. I wanted to apply. This movie doesn't really have a plot that you're, like, with. You're just kind of observing, like, him getting into oil.
Eddie
Does he kill people? Because there will Be Blood.
Lunchbox
No.
Eddie
Okay.
Lunchbox
Well, no. I mean, that's not his thing. It's the oil business. People die.
Eddie
Huh.
Lunchbox
I give it. I'm gonna be very generous and give it three out of five because Daniel Day Lewis was so good in it. But you don't sit there and you're not on the edge of your seat. You're not, like, super sad or happy. It doesn't evoke emotion. Mostly you're just like, how long is this Thing. So three out of five, max. If the acting wasn't so good, because I think he won the Oscar for Best actor.
Eddie
Okay.
Lunchbox
It. No chance. It's way too long. You can do it. An hour and a half. It probably is good. An hour and a half. It's better. Yeah, it was. I think it was independent film, though, right? Yeah. Paul Thomas Anderson, who also did Boogie Nights. Yeah, I didn't see that one either.
Bobby Bones
It's loosely based on a 1927 novel.
Lunchbox
It's loosely based on a whole year in the oil. And because it was about that long to watch it. Yeah, no, I give it very generously. Three out of five. Three out of five. Derek's.
Eddie
Derek.
Lunchbox
Oil. Derek.
Bobby Bones
I'm surprised you're giving it three.
Lunchbox
I would give it two and a half, but I'm telling you, Daniel Day Lewis is so good in it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. I guess that you.
Lunchbox
That I give that the half star. Do you get the quote now? I drink your milkshake.
Eddie
That's one of the most.
Lunchbox
Oh, yeah, yeah. I do get it.
Eddie
Says that I drink your milkshake.
Lunchbox
Yeah. Because it's just talking about the oil and how you get. Or I. I don't know if I should spoil the quote. Is it a thing? You spoil quotes? You know, who cares? I've gone on too long about it. If you've never seen it, don't watch it.
Eddie
Wow, this is not a good start for this.
Bobby Bones
You're not spoiling anything. We're not gonna.
Eddie
Yeah, I'm not watching it.
Lunchbox
You like it? I loved it.
Bobby Bones
I kind of want y' all to watch moonlight, so I know.
Lunchbox
We're not gonna watch it. No, not for me. I need a little more effort in plot. I don't just want to sit and experience and take things in. I would like to be guided how I'm supposed to feel when I watch a movie. Like, we're going to walk you through these emotions. I don't want it to just be like, sit and observe and see how you feel. So, yeah, don't. Don't watch it. It's off. It's free on Paramount Plus. So if you have Paramount plus, that's good. That's where I watched it. It was for Bones. This delivery person came to her house bringing furniture, dropped it off, and then he wouldn't allow her to leave, or he wouldn't leave until she gave him a good review.
Bobby Bones
That's weird. That's. You're desperate for some good reviews also.
Lunchbox
That's almost like kidnapping.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Lunchbox
For a review.
Bobby Bones
Don't be that way and you'll get a good review.
Lunchbox
Maybe not. Maybe not. You might have done a bad job. But also you can't hold somebody hostage to get a good review. That's very unsafe. Scottsdale, Arizona her name's Kaylee. And so she came, she ordered furniture delivery. They brought the furniture. She was working from home. As the delivery crew put together a bed frame in her bedroom. They said, will you come inspect to work? And they blocked her from leaving the room before she gave a good review. Her bedroom. That's kidnapping. Whoa. They said that she'd receive a survey. She got it, and they wanted a 10 star rating. Then they allegedly waited for her to verbally confirm that she it she'd do it. And then she eventually called the manager. Later she said she did receive an underwhelming apology from the company and along with a thanks for her feedback.
Bobby Bones
That's just freaky to me because they were in her home.
Lunchbox
Well, they were in her home anyway. She asked them to be in her home.
Bobby Bones
I know, but she's like, they know where she lives.
Lunchbox
Yeah, yeah. You're a big retaliation person. Yeah. But I think the creepiest part is they blocked her from leaving her bedroom.
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Lunchbox
Like they blocked again, that's kidnapping if you're keeping somebody from going somewhere. If you're holding them, that's kidnapping. And so she was basically held hostage of stories from Bro Bible because they wanted a good review.
Eddie
And she did eventually give them the review.
Lunchbox
Yeah. And they called, said, thanks for your feedback. She reported them to the Better Business Bureau. But almost, it feels like a crime. And they wanted a 10 star rating. We're a little out of control with limited the amount of stars we're giving. What happened with 5, 4 and 5 stars, that's it. We don't need to go 10 star then what's next? 50 star, 100 star? Too many stars. That's my other point here. There's another story where they she was a moving hostage. This whole other story, this lady said she was a moving hostage and she and her family were scammed at a thousands of dollars by a moving company. So different kind of moving company. But this is from Bro Bible. She's on Tik Tok. Her name's Tina Hit. She says her and her family were scammed out of thousands of dollars and they quoted her rate of $400, which she thought was reasonable. Do you know where this is going? Then once her property was loaded and locked onto the truck, a phone call came saying, you owe us an additional 3,000 bucks. And they refused to deliver the belongings until she paid, so they held her stuff.
Bobby Bones
400 definitely seemed like a yeah or yeah.
Lunchbox
Heck, yeah. 400, right. Will you take more? Yeah, Load it up. The situation would have gotten a lot worse. They said, too, if she didn't. They took her belongings. Oh. They wanted cash or blank money orders as payment. So this is like a moving company that's doing the whole. All the work in the scam. 400 bucks will come get it, then they have it, and they're like to get it back, and then who knows where it is? It's not like your stuff has trackers on it. Right. They can just leave it. They can just dump it somewhere.
Eddie
They have all the power.
Scuba Steve
That sucks.
Lunchbox
Movingscam.com is a site you can look at to see if the moving company you're using. It's a scam. But I would just encourage you using a moving company that other people have used. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
And if they give you a deal that's too good to be true.
Lunchbox
No, I'm probably taking it. $40. $40.
Eddie
That's a great deal.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but that's another. Scam alert. Scam alert. Scam alert. Thank you. That one's great. Which one's crazier?
Eddie
The kid in the bedroom.
Scuba Steve
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Well, I don't know. They're pretty crazy.
Eddie
Holding furniture, whatever, hostage. That's stuff you can't get out of your bedroom until you give them a review. That's crazy.
Lunchbox
Yeah, but they were gonna let her out.
Eddie
No, they know they weren't. Not until she made that review.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that one's definitely more scary.
Lunchbox
Yeah, that's like, human scary.
Bobby Bones
The other one's just like money.
Eddie
Okay, you got all my stuff. Great.
Lunchbox
No, not great. Yeah, my picture of Meemaw. Oh, no, it's the last one. And Papa, the bat he used the little League he gave away. Gave me up before he died. Yeah, that part sucks, too. I always had a meme on papa. Now I'm getting sad. Lobby, bone show bone. Head dory up.
Scuba Steve
The day this story comes to us from Belleville, Illinois. A woman was working at McDonald's. She's the manager, and she tells the teenager, hey, can you take the trash out? I'm not taking the trash out. So she says, all right, clock out, go home. The girl clocks out, goes home, tells her mom. Mom comes up to McDonald's, starts fighting the manager.
Lunchbox
So the kid, the employee, is like that. Because her mom's like that.
Bobby Bones
Yes.
Lunchbox
That sucks. Kid doesn't stand a chance until she Gets out. Yeah, go ahead.
Scuba Steve
So she's fighting the manager. Manager pulls a gun out of the waistband.
Lunchbox
Boom.
Scuba Steve
Shoots the mom in the leg.
Lunchbox
I get it. You get attacked at work. Of course you're gonna defend yourself.
Eddie
Oh, man.
Lunchbox
Crazy. She has a gun on her at work. But if it's legal, it's legal. And if somebody comes up and just starts punching you. Yeah, you probably try to defend yourself. Dang, that kid sucks. Because that mom sucks.
Bobby Bones
I know. Such a bummer. It'd be so cool if, like, the manager was an awesome, you know, role model, and then she could have work to go to to learn how to behave.
Lunchbox
Is this like, an 80s movie? Does a kid also do karate? Oh, Mr. Miyagi Karate Tournament.
Bobby Bones
So great. And there's, like, a manager or teacher or someone.
Lunchbox
And then a musical montage plays over as she's, like, doing the fries. You're the best around. No, no, no, no, no. Get me down. Yeah, I hear you. So who's the bonehead in your story, Lunchbox?
Scuba Steve
Well, they both were arrested, like, because.
Lunchbox
The kid was arrested?
Scuba Steve
No, the mom and the manager. The manager for shooting and the mom for attacking.
Lunchbox
If the manager's shooting because she's getting attacked. Yeah, she's gonna be okay. And freed. Not guilty.
Scuba Steve
Yeah, the bonehead was more me, the teenager, and the mom.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Scuba Steve
I thought the lady was just defending herself, but I mean. Yeah.
Lunchbox
All right, there you have it.
Scuba Steve
I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead story of the day.
Lunchbox
There is a new Bobby cast. My interview show with Cody Jinx. And Cody got a big, long beard, bald head, tattoos. Like, you see him, you're like, dang, that dude might stab me. Super nice guy. Like, I really like him, but I think we both had some reservations about each other, because, look, I'm in a cardigan with a button up, and he's in a black T shirt, all tattoos, bald head. And so Cody opened up about how he was hesitant at even coming on the show because of his perception of me. Honestly, Bobby, I didn't want to like you. Same. Same. I'm glad you said it. Same. I mean, I really did. Yeah, I didn't want to. I agree. And now it's kind of like stepbrothers, you know? It's like, now it's like, did we just become friends? Exactly. So our stories probably parallel one another. Probably far more than either one of us realized. Yeah. I loved hanging out with them.
Eddie
That's bizarre. Yeah, you guys brought that up.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Eddie
That's cool, man.
Lunchbox
It was really Cool. This is Cody Jinx talking about how he got to do a show with Kris Kristofferson and how nice he was even when Cody's dad gave Here, listen to this. When Kris Kristofferson walked in the door, my dad walks up to Kris Kristofferson and goes, hey Chris, how about you call Willie up? Me and you and Willie get the highway back together. And Chris looks over and I don't know if Chris heard him right or didn't hear him right or whatever, but.
Eddie
Just was just goes.

“They are trying to steal personal information.” (13:53)
Eddie recounts receiving a deceptive text about outstanding tickets threatening license suspension:
“If I don't pay it like within this week, that they will suspend my license.” (14:55)
Lunchbox stresses skepticism towards unsolicited urgent messages and advises verifying through official channels.
The hosts share personal anecdotes about receiving fraudulent letters related to trademark applications and dubious moving company practices, further emphasizing the importance of vigilance.

“My aunt donated to my uncle seven years ago, and she’s still alive and healthy at 79 now.” (17:56)
