Main Discussion Points & Insights

1. Go-To Comfort Foods

[02:14–05:13]

• Bobby opens up about feeling under the weather with his pregnant wife, leading him to a Chick-fil-A comfort food binge (Chicken strips, nuggets, sandwich, fries, sweet tea including one with strawberry syrup).
  • “Ordered a ton of Chick-fil-A off Uber Eats... I ate 75% of it.” (Bobby, 02:10-03:10)
• Amy finds solace in home-cooked soup, especially something made in a crock pot, though she agrees Chick-fil-A is high on her list.
• Eddie craves McDonald’s: “A Quarter Pounder with cheese, just mayonnaise, and a Dr. Pepper with a McFlurry.” (Eddie, 04:13)
• Lunchbox is all about chicken enchiladas, chips and salsa, and queso from a Mexican restaurant.
• Memorable Quote:
  • “If I’m sick—or even just tired, that’s when you reach for comfort food.” (Bobby, 02:41)

[05:13-06:49]

• Discussion about the meaning of "Michelin stars" (prompted by a story of a chef creating a gourmet hospital meal for a transplant patient).
• The group humorously debates how impressive two Michelin stars are, with some confusion about ranking.
  • “If it goes to like five, I don’t know if I want to tell people I’m a two.” (Eddie, 06:07)

---

2. Owl Impression TikTok Trend

[08:04–14:56]

• Bobby explains the latest TikTok trend: “Owl Impressions” — basically, people do owl-themed impressions, usually punctuated with a “who” pun.
  • “Here’s my impression of an owl being in a one-hit wonder band. And then I hit the first part of Who Let the Dogs Out. Then I go, ‘Who, who, who?’” (Bobby, 08:38; 09:39)
• Amy and Eddie are unfamiliar with the trend, with Bobby noting that it mostly surfaces on TikTok, while Amy is “more an Instagram Reel person.”
• The group riff on different owl joke formats, some found on TikTok and some made up live, leading to a live recording session of Bobby making his own "owl impression" TikTok.
  • “[Live] This is my impression of an owl if they were a 90s one hit wonder.” (Bobby, 13:56; repeated at 14:47)
• Memorable Moment:
  • The playful critique of each other’s humor and on-air brainstorming of ideas.
    • “Honestly... It’s better than any of the ones you just played.” (Amy, 14:58)

3. Drugs Discovered by Accident & The Ripple Effects

[15:07–38:00]

Weight-loss Drugs and Unexpected Side Effects

• New research: weight-loss drugs like Ozempic/Wegovy could save airlines $580 million in fuel by reducing average passenger weight.
  • “Because... it’s lightening passengers... That’s crazy, huh?” (Bobby, 15:22–15:31)
• These GLP-1 drugs (semaglutide/tirzepatide) can also dampen addictive behaviors (food, alcohol, gambling, even scrolling) by reducing dopamine spikes.
  • “Food, alcohol, shopping, gambling, scrolling are often driven by anticipation, not pleasure. GLP-1s appear to reduce dopamine spikes and blunt the urge rather than the enjoyment.” (Bobby, 17:31)
• Amy and Eddie discuss the potential and unintended impacts, how medicine can have good and bad effects, and the unknowns of long-term usage.
  • “It’s literally everything we’re doing. Like we don’t know long term effects… on even the environment.” (Bobby, 19:47)

Drugs Invented for One Use, Changed the World for Another

• Famous examples:
  • Viagra: Intended for blood pressure/heart disease, now erectile dysfunction
  • GLP-1s: Diabetes; now weight loss and addiction management
  • Botox: Crossed eyes; now cosmetics and jaw grinding
  • Rogaine: Blood pressure; now hair regrowth
  • Wellbutrin: Depression; reduces nicotine cravings, helps ADHD (Amy shares her experience, [22:53–25:39])
    • “I was on a little cocktail... And then I was like, I can’t sleep. So then I would also take Xanax… But there was a season where it served me well.” (Amy, 22:53–23:13)
    • Going off antidepressants is difficult, especially in winter due to seasonal depression.
    • “It’s not ideal to try to stop an antidepressant in the winter because you’re sad already.” (Amy, 23:51)
• Miscellaneous:
  • Cialis: Not just for ED—also prescribed for pelvic pain (Lunchbox), pulmonary hypertension
  • Aspirin: Pain and fever → heart attack prevention
  • Ketamine: Anesthesia → antidepressant
  • Accutane: Cancer drug → now for severe acne
    • Grueling side effects described by Amy ([36:42])
• Memorable Quote:
  • “Medicine doesn’t always move forward by perfect planning; it’s basically the point here.” (Bobby, 37:44)

[Bobby Bones]

Come on. Woke up kind of feeling weird yesterday. Didn't feel great all day yesterday, even into the night. And my wife's pregnant and so she really wasn't feeling good so she wasn't going to cook. I'm not going to cook and so I ordered what I think is my comfort food because I wasn't Feeling good. And so I ordered a ton of Chick Fil A off Uber Eats. So I ordered chicken, the strips, the longer ones. Ordered nuggets. And I ordered a sandwich.

[Amy]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

And ordered the fries. And then they have ketchup in the hard packs, and then they have honey mustard in the hard packs. And then I order. This is not a commercial, by the way. They don't advertise with us. And then I ordered two sweet teas. One normal sweet tea, because I like their sweet tea. And then they had the option on the app to add strawberry syrup. So I ordered another one with strawberry syrup. In case I didn't like the strawberry syrup, I had the other tea to fall back on. And then I ordered some fruit. And that was my comfort meal last night because I wasn't feeling very good.

[Amy]

You went hard.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I went pretty hard. I ate 75% of it.

[Amy]

So how are you feeling now?

[Bobby Bones]

I feel pretty good.

[Eddie]

Really?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I had a bad day yesterday. I don't know what was going on. I didn't sleep well. Not that I often sleep well, but Chick Fil a is my comfort food. I think if I can get to it. What is yours? If you're sick, what are you ordering?

[Amy]

I mean, Chick Fil a is up there for sure. If I'm sick, I don't know that I'm going Chick Fil A. Like, if I'm sick.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, you can be mentally sick.

[Amy]

Oh. Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's do that for you. That's more of a. You think? Yeah. If you're mentally sick, what are you ordering?

[Amy]

Okay, sweet. What am I eating every day? No, I. I feel like I go, well, you're right up there with Chick Fil A. Or I do like a home cooked.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, see, I'm not gonna cook anything.

[Amy]

Oh, I can.

[Bobby Bones]

You're gonna. That's a comfortable. Some people want to cook.

[Amy]

No, cooking's not therapeutic. But when I say cook, like, there's this soup that I love to make. It's not difficult. You can, in fact, even throw it in a crock pot, and it's gonna be good, but that's it.

[Bobby Bones]

That doesn't feel comfortable. You have to cook your own.

[Amy]

A soup is very comforting to me.

[Bobby Bones]

What's your comfort food?

[Eddie]

McDonald's. A Quarter Pounder with cheese, just mayonnaise, and a Dr. Pepper with a McFlurry.

[Amy]

Wait, did you say a Quarter Pounder with cheese and just mayonnaise?

[Eddie]

Yep, that's it.

[Amy]

So no veggies, bun, cheese, mayonnaise.

[Eddie]

Correcto.

[Bobby Bones]

If I ate a hamburger, I Only put mustard on it, Nothing else. I don't want anything else.

[Amy]

Okay. I just put ketchup. That's it.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, okay.

[Eddie]

Well then why, then why'd you have like mayonnaise?

[Amy]

It seemed just meat, cheese, mayonnaise and buns. Seems a little weird because the mayonnaise.

[Eddie]

Because you do meat, cheese, ketchup and.

[Amy]

No, just meat and ketchup.

[Bobby Bones]

That's fine. That's. No.

[Amy]

Yeah, I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you know how to comfort food now?

[Amy]

Where's the soup?

[Eddie]

She's sick.

[Bobby Bones]

Lunchbox. Your comfort food.

[Lunchbox]

Oh, it's easy. Chicken enchiladas, you got to order them from a Mexican restaurant. Some chips and salsa and some queso. Oh, my goodness. That'll make you feel better in a heartbeat.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I think my number two is chips and salsa. Because there's about two or three places. Yeah. Or as Eddie would say, salsa.

[Amy]

Salsa.

[Bobby Bones]

There was a story of a Michelin two star chef created a full fine dining experience in a hospital room for a 42 year old woman with a life threatening illness who was awaiting a liver transplant instead of sending for takeout. Because I think she deserves comfort food more than anybody.

[Eddie]

Yes, she's really sick.

[Bobby Bones]

She's really sick. Yes. Chef Patrick o' Connell and his team brought roses, fine china, and a personalized six course meal to give the woman a memorable and uplifting experience. He refused payment, saying that thoughtfully prepared food can comfort people and help them feel cared for during difficult times. It's a great story from people. So if you're a two star chef, how do you get extra stars?

[Eddie]

What's the highest?

[Bobby Bones]

4. 4. 4 star. Or am I thinking a 5 star or I think of recruits.

[Amy]

Does that mean, is this equivalent to Michelin star?

[Bobby Bones]

That's exactly. No, that's what it is.

[Amy]

Oh, Michelin. Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what I said.

[Amy]

Missed that word. I was too busy thinking about my comfort.

[Eddie]

Yeah. If it goes to like five, I don't know if I want to tell people I'm a two. Right.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what I'm saying.

[Amy]

Yeah. But no, I think at least if you even get one.

[Eddie]

Oh, really?

[Amy]

It's Right.

[Eddie]

Two just sounds a little of it. I know.

[Bobby Bones]

That's why when I read this, I knew it was a massive, like, it's an honor. But I heard two star Michelin show.

[Amy]

Because I think, like, think about it in military terms. Like to be a general is like five star general, respectful. But then you build upon that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but when I hear a one star general, I go, that's nothing. Like Colin Powell.

[Amy]

I just think you're not there yet. Like, you.

[Bobby Bones]

Sometimes they're like 70, and it's like a one star general.

[Amy]

Okay, but I see. All right. I think the fact that you even make it to general.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I do too. But I'm saying when. When you hear a five star, then you hear a one star, you're like, why is he so much better than that one?

[Eddie]

And so just a regular chef that. They're not a Michelin chef.

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Eddie]

Okay, so you have to.

[Bobby Bones]

You have to buy the tires in.

[Eddie]

Order to become one.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. Mike, what are you seeing on the stars there? Well, chefs can get up to. They can get as many stars.

[Eddie]

There's.

[Bobby Bones]

The top chef has 31 stars.

[Eddie]

Oh, so two really? Sounds like nothing.

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like I got two. So how do you get a star, though?

[Amy]

You have to be included.

[Bobby Bones]

Is it an online course?

[Eddie]

Oh, no, they.

[Bobby Bones]

They award it to you for excellent cooking, high standards.

[Amy]

Listen, I saw an Emily in Paris. The chef on the TV show was in the running to get a Michelin star, and it's because this one guy was dating a girl that helped pass out Michelin stars. So she ate there, and then they ended up getting there.

[Eddie]

Ain't that life?

[Amy]

So I don't really know.

[Eddie]

So not fair.

[Amy]

But.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, well, big shout out to this guy, this two star chef. I'm sure that's awesome. Yeah, what else for star? For actual restaurants, you can get up to three stars. But what about. But the chef here has only got two stars. Yeah, but I shouldn't say only because it's a big deal. It's a big deal. It's like a one star general. That's massive.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

But when Colin Powell's out with five stars, you're going, how come he's got five? They just know the right people. All right, so, yeah, big shout out to this guy. Is that trend of owl impressions got to your tick tock?

[Amy]

No, because I don't even know what you're saying. Aisle impressions or.

[Eddie]

Ow.

[Amy]

Oh, owl. Like the bird.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

So, Mike, has it got to your Tik Tok? Yep, all over it. So I don't think you're on the latest trends. I think they know. They know you're more an Instagram real person than a TikTok person.

[Amy]

Oh, really?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I think so.

[Amy]

Well, it'll hit Instagram in a month or so.

[Bobby Bones]

What's up?

[Eddie]

Yeah, what is it?

[Amy]

What is it?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, you don't know it either.

[Eddie]

I don't get that either.

[Bobby Bones]

See, I know it Mostly gets them. It's Mike. It's me, Mike and Morgan. We're usually the. Morgan, are you getting the owl jokes?

[Amy]

Yeah, I've gotten a few. I'm not full immersed yet, but I've gotten a few.

[Bobby Bones]

If you watch one or two, they just start feeding them to you like crazy. And most of them are. Here's my impression of an owl doing something and they're pretty funny and they explode. If they're halfway decent, they explode. And so I had one I was going to do as soon as we finished here, I was going to do. Here's my impression of an owl being in a one hit wonder band. And then I hit the first part of who Let the Dogs Out. Then I go, who, who, who?

[Eddie]

That's gonna.

[Bobby Bones]

You think that'll get some likes?

[Amy]

So that's what they're. They're like that. That. It's like the. The who ain't like, give me an ex. That's the one you're gonna.

[Bobby Bones]

One guy goes, I'll do an impression of my dad getting out of a chair as an owl.

[Amy]

Okay, okay, okay.

[Eddie]

That's really fun.

[Bobby Bones]

I can probably just search some up. Yeah. Some are like celebrity impressions, like the Kardashian one. It's like, who? Yeah, it's all a way to do who. Let me see if I can find a couple. But yeah, I was thinking this morning, I thought, what could I do? That's kind of funny? I think that one works, right?

[Eddie]

Yeah, that's funny.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's see. Owl jokes.

[Amy]

This is my impression of an owl.

[Bobby Bones]

That only hangs out with the guys.

[Amy]

Because girls are too much drama. This is my impression of an owl. If an owl was Lois Griffin. How Peter, who is that? Is that the horse?

[Eddie]

This is my impression of an owl.

[Bobby Bones]

But if it was Mickey Mouse, who.

[Eddie]

Who give my impression of Maya Angelo is an owl. This is my impression of a black owl.

[Bobby Bones]

This is my impression of an owl from Nigeria. Helen Keller as an owl.

[Amy]

[Eddie]

But the owl's rescue show.

[Bobby Bones]

Anyway. So you get it, right?

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Amy]

Yeah, yours would be funny.

I don't know what Adobo is.

[Eddie]

Is that like A. Like a sa. Like a seasoning.

My impression of an owl. If the owl was a dad whose kid has a friend of 10 years coming over.

[Lunchbox]

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, There you go. But anyway, there's some good ones.

[Amy]

Yeah, those haven't hit me yet.

[Bobby Bones]

Nah, they'll get there. Eventually.

[Amy]

[Bobby Bones]

It'Ll be like, yeah, but mine's funny, right?

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

I had a few in mind that I was going to do.

[Amy]

Yours might be the funniest one.

[Bobby Bones]

No, there's some really funny ones. When people do celebrity impressions and they fit in. The who. Super funny. The one I got there before wasn't as funny, and I was. This is an impression of an owl watching their favorite 90s rock group play Let her cry and only want to be with you but can't remember the full band's name. Who. Who. Who? No. Hootie and the Blowfish.

[Eddie]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

I was thinking that one was such a long setup. That's the funny part, is the extremely long setup.

[Amy]

Why was I thinking. What's.

[Bobby Bones]

What's.

[Eddie]

That's the who.

[Bobby Bones]

The who.

[Amy]

What song is that?

[Eddie]

Who are you?

Oh, yeah, the other one was a TV show. Yeah, the who plays the theme song today.

[Amy]

Oh, didn't know that.

[Bobby Bones]

Another one that I had that I didn't. I don't know. I don't want to do jokes I didn't do because they're not as funny.

[Eddie]

Have you not seen the who let the dogs out?

[Bobby Bones]

No, that's cool.

[Eddie]

I mean, that's good. You got to get that now, dude, before somebody jumps on it.

[Bobby Bones]

Somebody may jump on now watching us on the live stream. True. Have you seen that? I haven't seen that one, Mike. Have you? I haven't seen that.

[Eddie]

No.

I'm sure there are, but I'm just letting you know.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, well, thanks. It's nice of you. All right, I'll go. So a new report says that weight loss drugs like OIC and Wovi could save airlines $580 million annually on fuel costs.

[Amy]

Oh, my gosh.

[Bobby Bones]

Because it's lightning passengers.

[Eddie]

I mean. Yeah, if you add up the weight.

[Bobby Bones]

Lightning.

[Amy]

Lightning.

[Eddie]

Lightning.

[Bobby Bones]

Lightning.

[Eddie]

Not lightning.

[Bobby Bones]

Lightning passengers. That's crazy, huh?

[Eddie]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

So, yeah, it just talks about how if bag weights are cut, generally they save money. So if human weights are cut, a new report says that weight loss drugs could save up to 600 million annually in fuel costs. Because again, people are just lighter. There are people who, and I've talked about this before, who take it for addiction reasons, like micro dose it through for addictions. Because it works in that Part of the brain that. The addiction part of the brain. Because I think some people have a food addiction and this is not. I'm not talking about people that actually have a disease that they're treating it for, but some people have an addiction to food. So they can take this and it helps them. So there are people that I think I've talked about, casinos are seeing less and less people go in. Not because people are taking it for that, but because that's one of the side effects of it. When people are losing weight, they also. If they like to gamble, they're not. They're not feeling the urge to gamble.

[Eddie]

It's amazing.

[Amy]

I don't know that this is for. This was not for alcoholics. But in. I read an article that people that take some form of GLP1 their alcohol consumption decreased naturally their desire for it.

[Bobby Bones]

But the desire will be different than like the right.

[Amy]

But I don't know that the people. I wasn't looking at. It was just part of the article. It wasn't looking at whether or not these people were addicts or alcoholics.

[Bobby Bones]

It says it can reduce alcohol and nicotine addiction by 40%.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Amy]

But for people that were just social drinkers or maybe would even have, you know, or casual. I don't know what you call them. They didn't even have the desire to do that is what I read.

[Bobby Bones]

But does that equal no desire to eat as well? Because I just see that as a food, alcohol, just a beer. Because if you don't want anything, a beer is part of anything.

[Amy]

True.

[Bobby Bones]

So GLP1s. I forgot that's what they were called. I typed that in here. They may help addictive personalities. GLP1 medications like semaglutide or tirzepatide don't just affect appetite. They act on reward and impulse circuits in the brain. They quiet the dopamine. Chase addictive behaviors. Food, alcohol, shopping, gambling, scrolling are often driven by anticipation, not pleasure. GLP1s appear to reduce dopamine spikes and reward blunt the urge rather than the enjoyment and lower compulsive seeking behavior. Wild.

[Eddie]

I just can't imagine people going to work and doing stuff like this.

[Bobby Bones]

Like what?

[Eddie]

Creating a. A medicine where there's like, guys, this is crazy.

[Amy]

Like did you see at the Indiana Miami game?

[Bobby Bones]

Hold on, everybody's confusing me. You finished your statement.

[Eddie]

I just think it's crazy to have a job where you create something that is supposed to be for weight loss. And then you look at it more and more and you're like, guys, it's changing all sorts of things. And what's it doing? What, what is this medicine that we created doing to everyone's brain to make them stop wanting to do blank, blank, blank? That's most drugs I know, but that's just. Do we come to work and we just talk on microphones and then we go home? Like these guys are doing crazy, crazy things and then finding things out about the body that no one ever knew.

[Bobby Bones]

Connected lunchbox takes boner pills, Right?

[Eddie]

Correct.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Now when those pills first started being used, they were used for blood pressure. Like that was why that Viagra was created. And then they realized, oh, there's another use for this. And so the boner pills that he takes every morning before he comes in. Yes.

[Eddie]

Which he's on right now.

[Lunchbox]

Yes, I'm on Cialis right now. But it's not for that.

[Amy]

But again, your body doesn't know.

[Eddie]

But what's it doing? I guess my, what I'm so just amazed by is just what it's doing to our, the body. Like it's literally changing something that the body normally doesn't change.

[Bobby Bones]

Because that's all medicine.

[Amy]

That's all medicine.

[Eddie]

I know, and it's crazy to me also.

[Amy]

That's all. Think about it. Not medicine, alcohol.

[Eddie]

Sure, yeah, good, good point. Just what are the long term effects?

[Bobby Bones]

I think, I think you. Well, I think they have been testing it for decades, but I still don't think you know the long term effects until you have. Well, long term. But that's even food we're eating.

[Eddie]

I know, I know.

[Bobby Bones]

It's phones we're using, it's microwaves we're using. Yeah, it's. I mean, it's not just medicines. And then we go, well, what's happening? It's literally everything we're doing. Like we don't know long term effects of anything we're using or its effect on even the environment.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Because you create it and you think like, oh, this is cool. It's. It's making us lose weight, like that's great. But then we're like, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa. It's also making us not want to gamble so much. And then you're like 50 years down the road, you're like, oh man, this is doing something else completely.

[Bobby Bones]

Now I have a third eye in my back.

[Eddie]

I had no idea.

[Bobby Bones]

So famous drugs that were found to have a completely different purpose. Viagra created for not just blood pressure, but heart disease. It didn't help much, but trial patients reported a very specific side effect. And now it's Used for what? Lunchbox. Uses it for erectile dysfunction.

[Lunchbox]

No, that's not what I have it for.

[Eddie]

But you are taking it.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, but it's not for that. It has multiple uses.

[Bobby Bones]

GLP1s. It was for type 2 diabetes. Patients lost significant weight and had fewer cravings. But now it's used for addiction research, metabolic disease, obesity. It's being studied now for alcohol, nicotine and compulsive behaviors.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Botox. Originally invented for eye muscle disorders. Crossed eyes, spasms. Doctors noticed that patients wrinkles disappeared.

[Eddie]

They're like, hey, wait a second, you're hot.

[Bobby Bones]

I know you had cross eye, but you're kind of hot today. Now it's used for cosmetic procedures. When I've had it put into my jaws, it's to keep me from grinding, for breaking teeth. Fun fact. I had to order two new mouth guards Monday because I've eaten through two of them.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

I had one chewed all the way through it. A mouth guard. A hard plastic mouth guard that's supposed to last for a year. I chewed through both of them in two months. Like that's why my teeth break.

[Eddie]

Is that stress related? Like stress?

[Bobby Bones]

Probably, yeah. Rogaine, Minoxidil. Minoxidil. Minoxidil. Originally invented for high blood pressure, patients started growing hair.

[Eddie]

No way.

[Amy]

That is crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Now it's used for hair loss. What's funny about that is when it first started to be. Well, they were first testing it. The hair loss or the hair growth was an unwanted side effect because it's like you're growing weird hair.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And then they realized, oh, if we actually use it to grow hair, it won't be weird. It's not weird if.

[Eddie]

That's gonna be awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Wellbutrin. Wellbutrin. Excuse me?

[Amy]

I took that.

[Bobby Bones]

Wellbutrin. Yeah. Originally invented for depression, but when people were taking it, people stopped smoking.

[Eddie]

Is that what you took it for?

[Bobby Bones]

Amy?

[Amy]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

What if we found out after all these years Amy was a secret heavy smoker after, like 20 years together?

[Amy]

No, I took it during my divorce for depression. And it also helped with adhd.

[Eddie]

Adhd?

[Amy]

Adhd, they said. They said. But yeah, I was on a little cocktail.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, a cocktail would mean more than just this.

[Amy]

Yeah. Because I also took Adderall for my adhd. I got on like, multiple things. And then I was like, I can't sleep. So then I would also take Xanax. I'm not on anything anymore. But there was a season where it served me well.

[Bobby Bones]

Take it if you need it.

[Amy]

Yeah, but I Will say getting off of it. Wellbutrin. I tried to get off of it in December of like 23, I think, and I couldn't do it. It was very difficult. Like, very. And then I consulted with my doctor and she's like, let's circle back after spring, like spring into summer to try to get off of it. Because it's not ideal for you to get off. It's not ideal to try to stop an antidepressant in the winter because you're sad already. There's seasonal depression. Yeah. You don't have as much sunlight. You're indoors more. So she's like, I know you really want to get off it right now, but let's just push it like four months or so. And then when I got off of it in like April or May, it was much easier. So just a little maybe that you.

[Bobby Bones]

Were ready to get off of it.

[Amy]

I was. And I was ready in December. I knew it. But my body was used to it. I couldn't. I needed other. She's like, there's just other outside factors that will help you get off of it with ease because you're still stopping a medication that your body is now relying on. Even though the depression was better and my circumstances were better. Because I would say I had circumstantial depression. Not.

[Bobby Bones]

Which is different than a couple things.

[Amy]

Yeah. And I was still even recognizing that. And getting on the medication was weird for me. But I was. Because I was like. I was still high functioning. Like, I wasn't in my. I could show up for work. Now, granted, some days I was a little off, but I still got up physically.

[Bobby Bones]

You were here.

[Amy]

I still physically got up and showed up at my responsibilities where I was like, you would think I would just make excuses all the time and curl up in my bed and couldn't get out. But for all intents and purposes, and especially like being a mom, all I realized once I started to say that. I don't know that I know how to say that.

[Bobby Bones]

How would you say it?

[Amy]

Intense. For all in. For all commit, just commit. Shame I feel right now.

[Bobby Bones]

Just commit.

[Amy]

For all intents and purposes. For all into. For all intensive purposes. For all intents and purposes.

[Bobby Bones]

That's it.

[Eddie]

Like, it's intense. As in like intentions.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, intense. Intense.

[Amy]

For all intents and purposes.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I think it sounds though, like, for all intensive purposes.

[Amy]

Which I knew that. I know that's not.

[Bobby Bones]

But I probably thought that was it for most of my life until I just read it a couple times.

[Amy]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not even shaming you. I just wondered what you said there.

[Amy]

I know I shaming myself.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Amy]

Self shame.

[Bobby Bones]

Well I'm glad you're off everything if you feel like you need to be off everything.

[Amy]

Oh yeah, I've been off of it for that's 2023 dude that's no 2023 is when I tried I got off in April, May, can't remember of 2024 so cuz it got warmer and it's 2026.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey global warming got her off medicine.

[Amy]

It's 2026 now. No but just saying to anyone right now that's like hey, I feel like I could probably transition off my antidepressant or whatever. Just take into consideration we're still in the winter months and you know, don't put that pressure on yourself to do it right now.

But I only take it if I really need it. But I'm telling you if I take it and it makes me sleep, my brain function is not Good.

[Eddie]

It.

[Bobby Bones]

It takes from me. It's like capacity to be quick or recall.

[Eddie]

So what do you wake up and feel like, cloudy?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't even feel that cloudy. It's just not there.

[Eddie]

It's weird.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. There's no feeling where I'm like, oh. Because it doesn't even make me feel whatever people feel because I think they may take more of it to get high or something. I don't feel that. But when I wake up, it's just not there. And so I was talking to my therapist about it this last week because he was like, are you taking anything now? I'm like, no, nothing. I've taken anything for a few months at all. And I was just talking about, man, all medicine. Like, if you use medicine, if you take a prescription, like, it's going to give you something, but it's going to take something from you as well. Just generally speaking. But if you need it, take it.

[Amy]

Absolutely. And it can serve its purpose. But then you have to weigh. Like in your case, you have to weigh the pros and the cons of if you just want to take it. You know, one night I. About five or six months ago, maybe after being off of Adderall, because I got off of the Adderall, the Wellbutrin, everything, I had a lot to do coming up and I still had Adderall left. And I'm like, this is my prescription and I'm just going to take 10 milligrams or something. Whatever. The lowest like I had, I would either take 110 or. Or 2 to make it 20, depending on the day when I was on it every single day. And I just randomly decided to take it out of nowhere. And that day, I was awesome. The next day, horrible. It was so horrible. And so now I want. I still have some left. And even though it's tempting to like, power through and get some stuff, some stuff done at any given point, and if I know, I take it, I know the next day, if I don't take it again, my brain is gonna be. It's no. Like, everything about me felt so off, like I hated. It's similar to what you're saying. The high from what I got done the day before was not worth the low the next day for me. Cause I'm not gonna continue taking it. So.

[Bobby Bones]

Other drugs. Cialis.

[Eddie]

Oh, Lunchbox.

[Bobby Bones]

Lunchbox, Yep. Now it's used as well for pulmonary hypertension and lung blood pressure. But yeah, I know it's erectile dysfunction.

[Eddie]

But nothing about getting a car wreck. Testicle. Oh, Is that C. No. Cialis was testicle right.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, it was. I get. I'm confused. He's got so many things going on now. He had a car wreck.

[Eddie]

Or the abdominal pain.

[Bobby Bones]

Why are you taking Calis?

[Lunchbox]

It's the abdominal testicle pain.

[Bobby Bones]

But I thought those two things weren't the same.

[Lunchbox]

Apparently they are.

[Bobby Bones]

That's your one stop shop. You just take Cialis and it's gonna fix something.

[Lunchbox]

Wow. That's what we're hoping.

[Bobby Bones]

Because wasn't one your pelvic floor?

[Lunchbox]

Well, that's all wrapped in together. They think my pelvic floor is too tight. So the Cialis is supposed to dull the pain. And do you. That's it.

[Eddie]

Lunchbox can ask you a question?

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, go ahead.

[Eddie]

Do not ask questions to your doctor. Like, what's this medicine going to do for me? Like, why am I taking it?

[Lunchbox]

I. I just told you.

[Eddie]

No, but you don't know. It sounds like you don't.

[Amy]

I think it's. He does. And they explain it. Being able to regurgitate it is different.

[Bobby Bones]

They can't talk. He doesn't understand what they're saying.

[Eddie]

Even though he does that for a living.

[Lunchbox]

No, they. They literally said it's to dull the pain.

[Eddie]

So a boner pill dulls the pain. Okay.

[Amy]

It has multiple uses.

[Lunchbox]

It has multiple uses, Eddie, just like you discovered medicine that, you know, they have all these medicines. You're shocked by it. We've talked about it for the last 30 minutes. Medicines do multiple things.

[Bobby Bones]

Aspirin was invented for pain and fever. And then they found out that it reduces clotting, so heart attack and stroke prevention. Ketamine. Shout out, Amy.

[Amy]

Yeah, I've done that.

[Bobby Bones]

Originally invented for anesthesia. What happened? Rapid antidepressant effects. Now it's used for treatment resistant depression.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

All right.

[Amy]

Well, my therapist is licensed to administer, not. She doesn't administer it. I had to go through a doctor to get the prescription.

[Bobby Bones]

But was that doctor behind a Waffle House?

[Amy]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

Opening his jacket. Yeah, I got it for you.

[Amy]

No, I think he's a Vanderbilt. And behind.

[Eddie]

Behind Vanderbilt. You snort it?

[Amy]

No, it's a little Lon or something. It's a little.

[Bobby Bones]

A lozenge.

[Amy]

A little lozenge? Yeah. And you put it under your tongue and it tastes horrendous.

[Eddie]

Is that why you put it under.

[Amy]

And you can't swallow for 15 minutes.

[Bobby Bones]

And then do you just slowly start tripping?

[Amy]

Well, I mean, I'm with her, and she reads to me while. During the 15 minutes.

[Bobby Bones]

What is she reading?

[Amy]

Whatever she has like a little book.

[Eddie]

Of poems or the Hungry Caterpillar.

[Bobby Bones]

She.

[Amy]

She reads me out of one of the books. Like she'll. She's, you know, get preparing your mind. And then, yeah, she's like, once the 15 minutes are up, you can finally swallow. And you swallow what's left. And then again. It's disgusting. And then there's a pallet on the floor.

[Bobby Bones]

You go to Bangtown. Take me away.

[Amy]

No, it's not Bangtown. And then you lay down. And the reason why you wanna go with the expert is. I mean, some people do this recreationally. I would never do that, but I'm under her control. But the duality of it is what's so awesome. I know I'm very present with her in the room, and I know that I'm also off in some rice fields on a roller coaster with my sister as a zebra playing the drums. But it is what it. But I also know, like, I'm here in this room. She's right here. I'm safe. Whereas, like with LSD and stuff, you just trip and you have. You're like, not in the room.

[Eddie]

Have you done that?

[Amy]

No. No. I would like to, but I'm too scared.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I'm too scared to do ketamine.

[Amy]

I'm so scared. You are. Even in a controlled environment. I understand with your addiction, I don't.

[Bobby Bones]

Think they take a picture of my pee pee.

[Amy]

No, but you have awareness. You would know.

[Bobby Bones]

I know. Then if I have such awareness, probably, like, take a picture of my pee pee.

[Amy]

No. You would be.

[Bobby Bones]

No. I don't know. I don't know, man. I used to take sleeping pills. I don't know. I'll give you two more. Accutane. Ah.

[Amy]

I took that.

[Bobby Bones]

Originally invented for cancer treatment. And what happened was people that they were giving this to for cancer treatment, their acne went away.

[Eddie]

Wow.

[Bobby Bones]

And so that was brutal. Oh, yeah. It makes your face, like, dry out, right?

[Amy]

Yeah. I was in college. I didn't even last the full regimen. I lasted about six weeks and I threw in the towel. Cause I was like, this sucks. I couldn't even open my mouth to eat because my lips are cracked so bad. I had to like, as, like sip things through a straw. And like, you're. I was a freshman in college. You were trying to meet new friends and people. I was like, this is no bueno.

[Bobby Bones]

One more. I'm not sure how to say this, and I think I've taken it. Taken it at some point. Pro Pre. Nalol, Propranol, maybe That sounds, like, familiar.

[Amy]

My brain. What's it do?

[Bobby Bones]

Invented for high blood pressure, reduce physical anxiety symptoms. It's a beta blocker.

[Amy]

Oh, I've taken a beta blocker.

[Eddie]

I think for anxiety.

[Bobby Bones]

I think I've taken. I've. I've tried beta blockers.

[Amy]

If that's it, it's propanol, because I think I have a prescription for that.

[Bobby Bones]

But there's an extra L in it.

[Amy]

Well, I never looked at the spelling.

[Eddie]

Are beta blockers those sunglasses that you wear?

[Bobby Bones]

No, those are blue blockers.

[Eddie]

Got it.

[Bobby Bones]

The commercial would come on 11 o'. Clock.

[Eddie]

They're like, yellowish.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

Here we go.

[Bobby Bones]

So medicine doesn't always move forward by perfect planning is basically the point here.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You see how it's spelled, though? There's a lull.

[Amy]

Yeah. But I never have really looked at it. I just knew what my doctor was saying. So that's probably why, you know.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, let's go around the room. Amy, you're up.

[Amy]

Well, I wanted to say something about when eddie brought up GLP1 or whatever, the people invent this stuff. One of the commercials for University of Indiana was that they were showing all the graduates because the commercials during the football game, they're trying to get you to go there and like, look at the difference we made. And one guy, he was an Indiana University graduate and he was like. And it was like, contributor to GLP1 drug development. And I was like, that's cool. Shout out. Those are like real people doing things. So anyway, my story is Timothy Busfield got released from jail on bail.

[Bobby Bones]

Right.

[Amy]

Yeah, yesterday.

[Bobby Bones]

For any specific reason or was that gonna happen regardless? Because the case is cracking.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

And on bail you can just pay the. Whatever, bail and they get you out.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. There are some rules, obviously.

[Eddie]

What's more expensive?

[Amy]

Yeah, like.

[Bobby Bones]

Like you can't go certain places. You gotta wear an ankle monitor.

[Amy]

Probably surrender your passport.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So give me. Give me the news.

[Amy]

So I just saw that yesterday he was released and awaiting trial. He put him. He. What is the word? Surrendered himself to authorities a week ago. So he was in jail for a week, which is tough. It's crazy. And he was wearing an orange jumpsuit. And I'm just keep thinking over and over, if he's totally innocent, how he.

[Bobby Bones]

Told us yesterday where the security guard heard the mom say he's gonna pay because they replaced her kid with another kid in a. Like a production.

[Eddie]

That's real, man.

[Bobby Bones]

If that's real, man, that pisses me off. I. I don't get pissed off about much.

[Amy]

Speaking of not knowing how to say words, this is one I've always struggled with. But he had a two hour pre trial detention hearing yesterday where the judge ruled that he would be released on his own recognizance. Recognizance, what does that mean?

[Bobby Bones]

Zone authority. Like we trust you to make good decisions and if you don't, you'll pay.

[Amy]

Yeah, like.

[Bobby Bones]

Just give a story.

[Amy]

I remember one of my first times doing the Hollywood Skinny back in the day when I first joined the show. Somebody had gone to jail. I don't know, like Lindsay Lohan or something. And she was released on her own. And I said, recognize. And that's when y' all first called.

[Eddie]

Me out for so long ago. And you never forgot that.

[Amy]

Never. And anytime I see that word, I'm.

[Bobby Bones]

Back traumatized with it.

[Amy]

I'm back in at 96.7 Kiss FM in our tiny little studio talking about Lindsay Lohan and her being released on her own.

[Bobby Bones]

Recognize anything else, that story?

[Amy]

No. But his wife is so happy, especially.

[Bobby Bones]

If she knows he didn't do it. Yeah. And because they started to vilify her a bit. Like, oh, look at her. She's sticking up for someone who possibly touched a kid. She's also bad. Like, that started to be the narrative. And if he never did any of this, that means she never did what they were claiming she was doing. It's. That sucks. Now if he comes back and he did, I'm out. I'm out. Yeah, I mean, hand up, you know, Wish I wouldn't have said he possibly didn't do it, but it just seems to me by what we're reading, he passed a polygraph test. An independent, not his own. An independent polygraph test. And a security guard says he heard the mom of the kid saying, oh, if he takes my kid out of this, I'm gonna. He's gonna pay. It just doesn't seem like this is a well formed reason to put him in prison. All right, Eddie. Yeah.

[Eddie]

I saw a post of Sylvester Stallone. He was in the gym, which is like, dude, he's like, he's jacked. Jacked.

[Bobby Bones]

And he's like 79.

[Eddie]

Yeah. He's almost 80 years old.

[Amy]

Being on stuff.

[Eddie]

And what, you think he's on something?

[Amy]

I think he's on like growth hormones or something. Right.

[Eddie]

Oh, really? I mean, he just says that it's.

[Bobby Bones]

Don't look for me for. Right. I don't know. I'm not jumping in on that.

[Eddie]

He said in the video that it's like his church, the gym is like his church. That's where he goes to get right.

[Amy]

And maybe I'm wrong.

[Eddie]

And so he. I mean, from that post, I just.

[Bobby Bones]

Want to jump in on that. But more, I'm not accusing him of.

[Eddie]

Being on anything more than him being Jack dude.

[Bobby Bones]

His.

[Eddie]

I didn't know he had all his tattoos. He's got like sleeves of tattoos at 79 years old. Like, that's, that's pretty. That was shocking to me.

[Bobby Bones]

I saw him say in the article that I read about it that it's way harder for him to stay jacked. And it gets harder every single year. Yeah. And I'm like, dude, you're 80. How many more years do you got? I mean, that's awesome.

[Eddie]

Yeah. And like, I think like, I mean, I don't work out a lot now, but I feel like 79 years old. I'm not, I'm not doing that anymore.

[Bobby Bones]

You're kind of like that now. 46.

[Eddie]

Like. Like he. It's so crazy to me that an older person wants to like go to the gym and like lift still.

[Amy]

Oh, no. I hope that that's us. I hope that that's like I want to. I saw this 71 year old woman doing all these crazy moves like just in her bedroom. Like every morning she wakes up and like does, you know, these stretches and strength moves just right on the floor of her bedroom. And I'm like, please let that be me. And then I saw this other video, really put the fear in me. It's like, if you're not gonna get in the gym and lift heavy as a woman, like right now your body is as strong as it's ever gonna be at this very moment. Cause tomorrow when you wake up, like, you're never gonna be as strong as you are at this exact moment if you don't start making change. And the beauty of it is we can make change.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

What sucks for me is I had ankle surgery and I've not been able to do anything for three months or so now.

[Amy]

But what about your upper body?

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah. You can do like just curls and stuff.

[Bobby Bones]

Nope, I'm doing nothing. I've. I'm walking on the treadmill. I just know how I do if I get in the gym. I'm like, yeah, I think I can do this. I think I can box. I think I'm now to the point. I walked three miles yesterday on the treadmill and it did not hurt. So I'm making strides, but I've probably put on 7 or 8 pounds from just not being able to do anything. Like, I can't.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Even go up and stair up and down stairs for a while. I couldn't do anything there. All right, lunchbox. Your story.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah. Suni Williams, the NASA astronaut, that about a year and a half ago, her and a dude went up to the space station. They were only supposed to be up there for a week. They got stranded up there for nine months. They finally got back last March. She has announced her retirement from NASA.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I think I'd be out too. Yep. I think I announced it while I was up there. Like, yeah, I'm done. I know I'm up here still. But just so you guys know, when I come back, I'm out.

[Eddie]

Can you sue? You'd be like, you told me five.

[Bobby Bones]

Days if it were like an act of God that kept it from happening.

[Eddie]

Well, you try to go to space, I feel like it's just like very risky.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm sure there's a heck of a waiver to sign to go into space.

[Eddie]

A long one.

[Bobby Bones]

There's. Yeah, that's a long one. Yeah, yeah, I'd quit too.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

The guy that was with her retired like last summer, like a couple months after they got back. She waited all the way until now and I'm like, wow, that's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

An 81 year old Florida woman's behind bars of trying to hire a hitman. Deputies say Eloise Leland. Is there a more 80 year old name than Eloise?

[Eddie]

Eloise.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah, it's Eloise.

[Eddie]

Huh, What'd you say?

[Bobby Bones]

Am I not saying it right?

[Eddie]

No, I just. Eloise sounds old, like Eloise, I think you're saying.

[Bobby Bones]

I say Eloise. Oh, yeah, yeah. Soft S was looking for a hitman investigator, set up a meeting with an undercover detective posing as one. During the January 16th meeting in Citrus county, she talked about the plan and agreed to pay for the killing. She was arrested and charged with solicitation to commit first degree murder. This is not her first running with the law. Last year she was charged with animal cruelty after 90 dogs were rescued from her home.

[Eddie]

Dang.

[Bobby Bones]

From CBS12. Dang Morgan, your story.

[Amy]

All right, so there's this young woman, she's 24 years old and she's been going viral on TikTok because she is romantically involved with two twin brothers.

[Eddie]

Hmm.

[Bobby Bones]

Now if you're a dude and you're romantically involved with two twin sisters, we look at that dude and we go, he's a hero. Nice job. Give him a medal.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Amy]

So they're A throuple. They're a throuple. And the.

[Lunchbox]

But it's weird for.

[Bobby Bones]

It's weird if it's a girl and two dudes.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Lunchbox]

That's just.

[Eddie]

Why is that weird?

[Amy]

To be clear, they don't. Because some throuples, they're all involved with each other, but they're brothers.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think the brothers are having. I don't know, but I don't think the brothers are having solo time without their wife.

[Lunchbox]

Yeah, but they probably share a bed. That's weird. I'm not sure. My brother.

[Bobby Bones]

No, but Amy's saying.

[Amy]

No, no, no, no. I'm not solo time. I'm saying the Ruffles, they probably do.

[Bobby Bones]

It at the same time.

[Lunchbox]

What?

[Amy]

The brothers.

[Eddie]

I mean, I would assume they see.

[Amy]

Each other naked like that.

[Eddie]

I would assume.

[Amy]

No, no, no, no.

[Bobby Bones]

I would assume that, too.

[Amy]

No, I would not, because they are brothers. This.

[Eddie]

Yeah. See?

[Amy]

Well, I mean, there's literally a picture of them both kissing her, so.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I would. I. I never thought that wasn't the thing.

[Amy]

Oh, this is just blowing my mind.

[Bobby Bones]

I figure they're London bridging her.

[Amy]

Maybe they have their cl. No. Ew. I cannot.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, yeah, the whole thing's weird.

[Amy]

I had something pop up on my algorithm the other day. I was like, I don't ask for this. It was some other throuple, but at least none of them are related.

[Eddie]

Wait, what? What came up?

[Amy]

A throuple account.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy doesn't get the ones that are trending. She just gets, like, weird sexual stuff. And she's like, I don't get it. Some guy was on Twitter. Man, I wish I knew the full context of this. But he posted. He was like, I hate getting these ads for gay dating sites on YouTube. He said, Are you guys all getting these ads for gay dating sites? I'm getting so mad at it. And everybody was like, dude, do you know why you're getting those ads? They're targeted.

[Eddie]

We're not getting that.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, what are you looking at to get those ads?

[Amy]

I don't know what I'm looking at to get this account, but UFO experts.

[Bobby Bones]

Say that whistleblowers will make big news this year if whistleblowers get their voices heard. Experts say 2026 could end up being the year of the UFO. According to researchers, a growing number of insiders from the military intelligence community are ready to spill the beans on what they know in public forums. If this happens, keeping a lid on this stuff becomes tough proposition. From the Daily Mail.

[Amy]

We are in The Age of disclosure.

[Bobby Bones]

A massive 3.6 carat purple sapphire is now the world's biggest of its kind. And it is estimated to be worth $300 million. Wait, 3.6 K karat? That's okay. That's different. I don't know diamonds. I said 3.6 karat because I thought the K meant karat.

[Eddie]

No, but it doesn't.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's a 3563 karat diamond.

[Eddie]

Okay. And that. It's a diamond or sapphire.

[Bobby Bones]

Not the same thing.

[Eddie]

No, no. Sapphire is a stone.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, let me just start over then because the K confused me. A purple Star Sapphire weighing 3563 carats is the world's biggest of its kind. It's estimated to be worth $300 million. Wow.

[Eddie]

That's so cool.

[Bobby Bones]

A round gem named Star of Pure Land is the world's largest documented natural purple star sapphire. Shoppers were held at gunpoint in a 110000 Pokemon robbery. I think we mentioned this one.

[Eddie]

Choppers. Like a motorcycle.

[Bobby Bones]

They were. I saw the clip. Did you? Yeah. They're happening all the time now. There's like one every day. The clip that I saw, it looked like a convention type or they were just in a store. Yeah. And there are people just around looking at Pokemon cards. A guy come in with a gun, just put it up. Up their head.

[Eddie]

No way. Over Pokemon cards.

[Bobby Bones]

It doesn't matter what it is. If it's anything worth value.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but. But are there those Pokemon cards? Are there worth a lot of money? Like I know the Logan Paul one.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a. Think of it as a baseball card.

[Eddie]

Yeah, same.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Amy]

During pregnancy.

[Bobby Bones]

Are you watching videos during the. No, but.

[Amy]

No, I'm looking at something in a video.

[Eddie]

But you look at the sports cards and you look like Babe Ruth. Like he died a long time ago. He was the greatest home run hitter, blah, blah, whatever. So you get that card and I understand like it's so old they don't make that anymore.

[Bobby Bones]

Like that's wimy rookies that are worth $120,000. Oh yeah, there's current Luka Don chick 101 refractor sign worth $90,000. Same thing as Pokemon. Yeah. Pokemon is more of a scarcity because they only print a certain amount of the rare ones. And that's what everybody trying to find. Got it. Find them. It could be $20,000. Woman in Texas is accused of throwing a 25 pound gym weight at another woman that she was suspecting of being involved with her partner.

[Amy]

What?

[Eddie]

Due to gym way. That'll kill you.

[Bobby Bones]

Throw that.

[Eddie]

That'll kill you.

[Bobby Bones]

Fortunate you're the strongest you've ever been right now, so you need to focus.

[Amy]

Well, I have to be underhand if you want me to throw a ten pound.

[Eddie]

You can throw that.

[Bobby Bones]

Fortunately, the other one was able to move out of the way. It's unclear. I mean she wasn't hit. It was at 24 Hour Fitness, but.

[Amy]

She said it was 25 pounds.

[Eddie]

Oh, that's heavy, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

That's heavy.

[Eddie]

That's pretty. That's pretty good.

[Bobby Bones]

You could throw that. I know.

[Eddie]

I mean it would be like a rainbow.

[Bobby Bones]

No, you have to throw it like a chest pass.

[Amy]

Oh, okay. See, I was just kept picturing you.

[Bobby Bones]

Don'T throw like a baseball.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

No, you thought you throw your shoulder out. Probably trying to throw a 25 pound weight. You'd have to like a chest pass.

[Amy]

Right, right.

[Bobby Bones]

Or like a shoulder throw.

[Amy]

Yeah. Squat and like thrust it out.

[Eddie]

If that hits your head, you're done.

[Bobby Bones]

Deputies say the suspect became angry after seeing a woman she believed was involved with her boyfriend, despite the two not knowing each other and simply being at the gym at the same time. Yeah, bro, I think it's time to run.

[Amy]

That's weird.

[Eddie]

You imagine working out 24 hour fitness and watching all that.

[Bobby Bones]

Can you imagine dating somebody who throws a weight at somebody that you've never even met, thinking that that dude must have cheated though before too?

[Amy]

Or her ex cheated on her?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm gonna say, I bet that dude's probably has been up to no good that created that crazy. Let's do one more. An 18 year old was arrested after he was caught hiding in a dog bed inside a closed Walmart. He was doing a live streaming challenge where you try to stay in Walmart for 24 hours.

[Eddie]

No way. One that closed or was it open?

[Bobby Bones]

An 18 year old was arrested in Florida after a TikTok challenge led him to hide inside a closed Walmart. Police say Isaac Hurley entered the Eaglewood store shortly before the closing and planned to stay inside for 24 hours to earn money from TikTok views. Even recording himself hiding in the dog bed section. He was charged with felony burglary.

[Eddie]

Yeah, you're gonna go to jail.

[Amy]

Speaking of working out, have you seen that guy on TikTok that go does all his workouts at Walmart in the weight section? Like the.

[Bobby Bones]

No, but that's funny.

[Amy]

Yes, yes, yes. He films stuff. He's like, all right. I mean he goes and he just gets. And he gets out of here. Sometimes shoppers are there. He's like, oh, excuse me, excuse me. But he does all kinds of like, sit ups, squats, biceps. It's funny.

[Bobby Bones]

That's funny.

[Amy]

See, I usually.

[Bobby Bones]

Funny stuff. I think Amy just searched funny stuff and now she brought something.

[Amy]

Oh, no, I just thought of that because you're talking about working out. And then we were talking about Walmart.

[Eddie]

Man, I saw. I saw these guys doing something I used to do when I was a kid. They go to like, the Walmart guy and like, hey, will you page my friend? And they do like, dirty names.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

And like, we used to do that when we were 13.

[Bobby Bones]

I saw some guys doing that too. It was really funny.

[Eddie]

It was funny. And then one guy's like, I'm not doing that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, because they're new ones, too.

[Eddie]

New names.

[Bobby Bones]

Ones that we didn't use.

[Eddie]

Yeah, they're getting creative with us.

[Amy]

We used Adam Zwiener.

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like if anybody falls for that one.

[Eddie]

Adam's wiener. You're saying wiener.

[Amy]

No, you're saying Zwiener.

[Eddie]

Oh, Sweener.

[Amy]

The last name is Zwiener.

[Bobby Bones]

If anybody calls for that, like, you're a real moron.

[Amy]

Adam Zer.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy's like, we used to do hairy balls. We're like, that's. It's the most simple one.

[Amy]

Okay, They're Weiner's really in the FOMO Wiener.

[Eddie]

Yeah. No, dude, the funny one that was with a guy that says, like, I'm not doing that. But then they trick another coworker. He's like, but I know so and so will fall for it. They're like, hey, Henry, come over here.

[Bobby Bones]
