[Amy]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I was talking about the baby changing table and how I feel like it's pretty stupid. And she wrote in there, turn his mic off.

[Morgan]

Hilarious.

[Bobby Bones]

My wife's trolling me on I stop you. Yeah, yeah. It's really the only exposure she gets to the show is if we come up in her feed. And then if she's so compelled by the little tease, she'll take a listen. And I think, why do babies need a changing table? Is what the tease was. And my wife wrote, turn his mic off. Yeah, there you go.

[Morgan]

Sounds like you're getting to change the table.

[Bobby Bones]

Sounds like I'm probably gonna hear about that later when I get home, too. That showbiz baby. Would you mind playing voicemail number one, please?

[Caller]

For as much crap as Lunchbox especially. And sometimes Eddie gives Amy for being divorced. Amy has gotten so much cooler since she's been divorced. And honestly, I'm here for it. Keep on keeping on, Amy. We love you. We're proud of you.

[Bobby Bones]

Have a good day, guys.

[Amy]

Have I gotten cooler?

[Morgan]

I agree with that.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know if you're cooler. I think you've gotten a little more carefree and a little more reckless. Now, if that makes you cooler, so be it.

[Amy]

Reckless? Like because I don't have a driver's license?

[Bobby Bones]

No, I don't mean physically reckless and reckless. Reckless towards other people's lives.

[Morgan]

That could count, though.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so I think you're a little more relaxed at times.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Life experience will do that to you.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you feel like you're cooler?

[Amy]

I don't know. I'm not as uptight, I guess.

[Bobby Bones]

Marriage keeping you uptight?

[Amy]

No, it wasn't the marriage. I think it was just, like, I've evolved so, you know, I have perspective on, like, what's important and what's not.

[Bobby Bones]

You've been looking pretty cool the last few days.

[Amy]

What do you mean?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, you get your collared shirt on today. It looks kind of cool, like businesswoman. You've been wearing your Inspector Gadget trench coat.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah, the coat, which has been cool. Definitely a vibe.

[Morgan]

It's been making me go, me too.

[Bobby Bones]

We were doing at the same time. I swear to God you weren't in here. And Eddie goes, dun, dun, dun, dun. And I Went. I said, amy's trench coat. He goes, yeah. I go, same thing.

[Amy]

Inspector Gadget. Well, I noticed you've got a thing where sometimes you're just like wearing the same thing. Right. Kind of. What's no judgment with love. So I'm like doing you just dance.

[Bobby Bones]

All around something we don't.

[Amy]

Because I don't want you to take this the wrong way because it sounds like I'm saying, like, oh, Bobby's wearing the same thing a couple days in a row.

[Bobby Bones]

Just say what you want to say.

[Amy]

I'm saying, I'm like, what? Why do I care if I've worn the same shoes and jeans? Like, this is the third day I've worn these jeans with these shoes. And I've just changed my button down and like I did a white button down then a blue button down and now I'm doing a blue and white stripe button down. And I'm like, this is. It's made getting ready, like, so easy.

[Morgan]

Okay, is this what the caller meant by cooler? I'm confused.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know, man.

[Amy]

No, I just am not.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm dizzier just from this. I know what you're saying. So. Because we will record stuff ahead. Sometimes I will wear the same clothes, like a sweater. Never same T shirt or underwear.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

But multiple days in a row just so the edits don't look weird all in the same day.

[Amy]

Oh, that's what you're doing. Okay, so see my bottom? Well, I'm changing the top, but I'm.

[Bobby Bones]

Just sort of having to leave the same bottoms. Don't make.

[Amy]

Yeah. I didn't know why you were doing it. It just I thought.

[Bobby Bones]

And also I wear a cardigan. I've worn a cardigan every day to work for over a year now. It's my longest running bit.

[Amy]

Yeah, I know it's your thing. I'm not trying to get in on the.

[Morgan]

Is it a bit. Yeah. Oh, for himself, I thought he just liked cardigans.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, it's also very easy. Yeah. When you have a uniform less to think about.

[Amy]

Yeah. That's sort of where I am right now. Like, I just have like other things where my brain is occupied to where I'm like, okay, at times I may want to put more into my outfits and that'll be fine. But right now I think it's good if I simplify it. Like, who cares during this time frame of my life or this particular week or whatever I have going on. Like, why do we over complicate things if our energy is being Spent elsewhere. Like, don't. Don't stress in the closet.

[Bobby Bones]

And also, I wanted to look a little more professional than just wearing a hoodie because I was just tapping out, and we're doing that every day, and it's like, there's got to be a bit of professionalism if you want, like, people to take you professional. So that's why I decided on wearing.

[Eddie]

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Don't bash the hoodie. Don't bash the hoodie.

[Amy]

Well, I mean, he's just making. Well, Eddie has on hoodie, too. He's just making a point that the cardigan is a step.

[Bobby Bones]

Elevated.

[Amy]

Yeah, it's more elevated.

[Bobby Bones]

And I want to be taken as elevated. And these clips are everywhere. So if I want to be taken as elevated, you got to act elevated. You got to look elevated. So that's why. And it's also the greatest, the easiest thing. Every morning, I've got, like, 25 of them. You just grab one, throw it on, different T shirt. Looks like you actually care, even if you really didn't.

[Amy]

What does your hat say?

[Bobby Bones]

What's that artist on Bobbycast next week.

[Amy]

Oh, yes. Okay. I know that. Okay. Because you had a red one, too. Okay, sorry. I thought. Now that you're saying it's an artist. I know who that is. I was thinking it was like, a brand.

[Bobby Bones]

She's from the same hometown as my friend Courtney was growing up. Hope, Arkansas. We went to the same college.

[Amy]

Those hats are cool.

[Bobby Bones]

A ton of similarities.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And she came over and she'll be on the Bobby cast.

[Morgan]

That's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Next Tuesday.

[Amy]

Yeah, cool.

[Morgan]

Yeah, cool. When you meet someone later in life that, like, kind of had the same.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not about to die, dude.

[Morgan]

No, I'm just saying, like, if somebody, like, from a calling.

[Bobby Bones]

Because later.

[Morgan]

Later in life, like, now, you know, and they're like, I went to your high school. And you're like, well, that's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. She grew up in Arkansas, small town, kind of near where I grew up. Went to the same college I went to. That's awesome. And was super cool. And she was like, you know everybody.

[Amy]

Obviously, but she was born in 1993.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

Oh. So she probably doesn't know Courtney.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know if she knows Courtney or not. I didn't bring that up. But my wife. My wife was born in 92. Oh, Flex. That's not a flex.

[Eddie]

That is a flex, dude.

[Amy]

I wonder if that's how my boyfriend feels when he's like, my girlfriend was born in 81.

[Morgan]

He's like, my girlfriend, she's 40. How old are you?

[Amy]

44.

[Bobby Bones]

She's 44.

[Amy]

He's like, she's 44.

[Eddie]

He does get the flex like that.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

It wasn't meant as a flex. It was just that I generally every single day communicate with someone that is that age. It sounds like she's a child.

[Amy]

No. Yeah. No.

[Bobby Bones]

Not like Mayus is the child.

[Amy]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. All right. That's what it is. It's cool. I told her when she.

[Amy]

Yeah, they're really cool.

[Bobby Bones]

I was like, hey, these are really cool hats. So I've worn them just because I like them.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Give me number two, Ray. Voicemail.

[Eddie]

Eddie, why isn't your son changing his own oil?

[Bobby Bones]

When I was a kid and I had to get a car, that was one of the caveats for driving is that I had to know how to change the oil. Maybe you need to get him under.

[Eddie]

There and that way he won't get scammed.

[Bobby Bones]

Love the show.

[Amy]

Oh, my.

[Morgan]

Yeah. I mean, I learned how to change my oil.

[Amy]

Really?

[Morgan]

Yeah. But I only did it like one or two times and never did it again.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't need to know how to change oil. Like, it's. It's. It's a nice skill to have. But it was. I think you're fine.

[Morgan]

I think he's fine to know that, like, you could change your oil and spend $20 versus whatever, $50, that. But what was the problem was, though, when you were changing the oil, you're like, what do I do with old oil? You gotta go behind autozone and like dump it or something.

[Bobby Bones]

It's an apocalypse skill. Now what I call an apocalypse skill is something you probably aren't gonna have to use in real life. And you'd really. It'd be very valuable if the world was in some sort of apocalyptic scenario. Yeah. But if he learns to change his own oil, how many times he really going to have changes on oil in his life?

[Morgan]

Never.

[Bobby Bones]

One or two maybe. And it probably very useful if he does it. But I don't think this rate. It's like learning how to shoe a horse. Like, would it. Do you really need to know how to put shoes on a horse? Could I. Yes, I could put shoes on a horse. It was always crazy to watch him get nailed in. I'd be like in the horse's foot.

[Morgan]

But it's like they're their nails, like.

[Bobby Bones]

Their toenails, their hooves and so. But it's like that. It's a nice apocalyptic skill.

[Morgan]

What about the tire, though? He should learn how to Change tires, right? Probably.

[Bobby Bones]

I think that more so because that can happen at any time.

[Morgan]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

I think the tire changing, Arkansas Keith made sure I knew how to change a tire. And he knew I wasn't the most masculine of kids. Not his fault. But he made sure I knew how to like change a tire.

[Morgan]

Yeah, I think that's important because you.

[Bobby Bones]

Can be broken down and need to know how to change a tire if there's no cell, but you really aren't going to be somewhere and just be like, if I don't get an oil change right this second, I'm never going to be able to get out of here. You can just drive. It may do some long term damage slowly but. All right, next up.

[Caller]

I am a graduate coordinator for a university and I don't know if it's the same for undergraduate degrees, but in graduate school credits age out. So courses I took 10 years ago actually wouldn't be able to count towards my degree if I went back and tried to finish now. So he may just need all the credit hours and not just three anymore.

[Bobby Bones]

This is in reference to Lunchbox needing three hours to graduate, stopping college with one course to go. Maybe he needs way more than that.

[Amy]

I feel like undergrads. He's probably fine.

[Morgan]

Let's find out though before you even assume that. Right?

[Eddie]

I mean, I did google it just now and it says no. Credits themselves do not expire. But I don't know what that means.

[Amy]

I mean, what you need to do is.

[Bobby Bones]

Could you research and call your school?

[Amy]

Yes, all he has to do. This is what I had to do. I called my advisor at Texas A and M and I said, here's my situation, here's what I need to do. And they helped me set up a plan.

[Morgan]

But Lunchbox doesn't have an advisor anymore.

[Eddie]

I don't even know how. Who would I go to? There's no way. The people that were school Crime Stoppers, University of Texas.

[Amy]

I know that you were utsa, but.

[Bobby Bones]

What call Crime Shoppers.

[Amy]

Degree. What was your degree?

[Eddie]

Speech Communication and Public Relations.

[Amy]

So then you find what I'd be like, call and say, I need an advice. What do you mean I was that degree.

[Bobby Bones]

Will you just help him?

[Amy]

This is not hard.

[Morgan]

You majored in speech.

[Eddie]

What do you mean what do I do for a living? I speak.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Eddie]

I don't understand what your point was. What's your joke?

[Morgan]

No, that's not a joke. I just. It's funny to me.

[Bobby Bones]

Maybe that's.

[Eddie]

No, no.

[Bobby Bones]

Why?

[Eddie]

Why are you lying? Explain why Is that funny?

[Amy]

He got this whole thing. This bonehead comes today from Denver, Colorado. Did you learn that?

[Bobby Bones]

He also. He also fist pumps. Every time he does it, he goes this story from Denver, Colorado.

[Morgan]

He does. He does.

[Eddie]

I'm very confused on why you think my speech is bad.

[Morgan]

Did you learn. Did you learn the whole, like. And he was in a car.

[Bobby Bones]

Voom, voom, voom.

[Morgan]

Like, did you learn that?

[Bobby Bones]

All the sound effects.

[Morgan]

He does? Yeah.

[Eddie]

I actually didn't. I just would get up in front of the class and speak.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah, I know. But surely you picked up some of that from there, probably.

[Eddie]

No, no. I don't think any of my teachers. I just think I was a natural. And so that was why I did that degree, because it was easy. That's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

But you did the degree?

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You didn't finish it.

[Eddie]

Well, that's why I. Yeah, well, so.

[Bobby Bones]

Just call and see.

[Amy]

Just call on C. Tell me the name. And Speech.

[Eddie]

And Speech. Communication and Public Relations. I was a double major.

[Morgan]

Pr. Huh?

[Bobby Bones]

That's. Isn't that the same major?

[Eddie]

Nope, two different.

[Amy]

So you had a double major.

[Bobby Bones]

That means if you're only three hours short, you have one of them already completed.

[Eddie]

No, it was double dipping. Don't. I.

[Amy]

Trust me, like, one of them is not a minor. They're both. You double majored?

[Eddie]

[Amy]

I mean, you were just in San Antonio. You could have gone by in person.

[Eddie]

I mean, I was bit. You act like I was just hanging out.

[Bobby Bones]

You were. You said you went up 30 minutes, did one thing, and that you were like, what was I even doing here?

[Eddie]

Well, no, no, no. That wasn't their fault. That was someone else's fault.

[Bobby Bones]

But again, but you had. But that was at night Point.

[Eddie]

That was at. It was at the. The concert was at night.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. You had all day.

[Eddie]

No, no, I had to get there early to interview the band, and the.

[Amy]

Band didn't want It.

[Bobby Bones]

No, he interviewed the band. He didn't intro them.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Amy]

So after he interviewed him, they're like, we don't want an interview.

[Morgan]

The speaking part, they didn't want that.

[Amy]

But he was.

[Bobby Bones]

Speech communication. I know. You didn't tell them you forgot to tell the band that you're major?

[Eddie]

They didn't ask.

[Bobby Bones]

They didn't ask me about pr.

[Eddie]

Yeah. And then, so, yeah, then I. I mean. Yep, yep. And then I had to go get up and go to the station and.

[Bobby Bones]

But I'm saying you had all day in San Antonio.

[Eddie]

No, I literally didn't. I got to the venue at 2:45.

[Bobby Bones]

What time did you get to San Antonio?

[Eddie]

I got to San Antonio at 11:30.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Eddie]

And then I had to do a podcast, the alumni podcast.

[Bobby Bones]

So you're on campus?

[Eddie]

No, I wasn't on campus. I went to a different building.

[Morgan]

Oh.

[Eddie]

The couple that runs the podcast, they own their own business. And so I went to their office and they had it.

[Bobby Bones]

Is this like when Ray took naked pictures in the basement of that dude?

[Eddie]

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Yvonne and her husband, they run the podcast and they had the equipment at their office because they have real like day to day jobs. They own their own business.

[Bobby Bones]

Day to day jobs? You mean jobs?

[Eddie]

Yeah. And so I went there to do the podcast and then I got the call saying, hey, we need you here early. They want to move the interview up from 3:30 to 2:45. And I'm like, oh my God, how.

[Bobby Bones]

Long was the interview?

[Eddie]

The podcast? Yeah, it was supposed to be an hour.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, not with the people with jobs, with the band.

[Eddie]

Five minutes. They gave me five minutes.

[Bobby Bones]

Right, so you have five minutes, then you had the rest of the day?

[Eddie]

Well, no, then I was out at the venue, which is 35 minutes from UTSA's campus. So then I had to get another Uber, go back into town, spend too.

[Bobby Bones]

Much time on this. Got it. And you'll just help him.

[Amy]

I just sent him the phone number.

[Eddie]

All right, I haven't got it yet.

[Bobby Bones]

Hit me with number that. Number six Voicemail.

[Caller]

So I was never a really good runner. I did do wrestling, and wrestling really, really helps with discipline, of continuing to.

[Bobby Bones]

Push yourself and push, push yourself, push yourself.

[Caller]

And it also really helps with endurance. So I think you should let Stevenson give wrestling a try. It's not for everyone, but it's a really good sport. So then you should think about it. Love the show.

[Bobby Bones]

Where are you on that?

[Amy]

Oh, not thinking about it.

[Bobby Bones]

He doesn't want to wrestle Anymore.

[Amy]

No, I haven't brought it up. I'm sure he does, but that'll hurt.

[Morgan]

That'll help.

[Bobby Bones]

Is it up to you to bring it up, though, or is it up to him to bring it back up to you?

[Amy]

He's got to bring it back up. And when he does, I'll be like.

[Morgan]

Yeah, that's a parent trick.

[Amy]

I thought we talked about this.

[Morgan]

If you don't talk about it, they may forget about it and you're good.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. But if he does bring it up and he says, no, I still want to wrestle and run.

[Amy]

And I'll say, are you sure about that?

[Bobby Bones]

And he says, yes, I've been thinking about it. We haven't talked about it in a while.

[Amy]

How much you been thinking about it?

[Bobby Bones]

So you're not really for it?

[Amy]

I am just not for it. I think we need one activity at a time, and I feel like cross country is in the fall, track is in the spring. Other than that, we have academics. We have to focus. I get it where it's good. My nephew wrestles. Like, he, you know, he's very into it, but that we can go support him.

[Bobby Bones]

So you're just against him having multiple sports this time?

[Amy]

I am.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Amy]

Because we have to.

[Bobby Bones]

You don't have to explain anything. You're just asking where you stand on it.

[Amy]

Yeah, well, I guess I'm just being clear. Like, I'm really not trying to be, because I guess I'm struggling. Like, I feel like I'm being like a bad mom, but I feel like I'm being a good mom. Prioritizing academics.

[Eddie]

I think Amy is trying to make sure he's focused on running because she thinks that's his future, that he's going to get a scholarship. And she is becoming one of those moms that. You know what I mean, the athletic mom.

[Amy]

And if we don't keep our academics up, this is going to be a problem.

[Bobby Bones]

And you don't think he could keep his academics up and also wrestle? And that would actually help him be a better runner as well, teaching him different skills.

[Amy]

What do we need to do at home to stretch? Like, what are you getting? You said wrestling was going to make him a better runner. I'm like, okay, well, we can work on some of those moves at home to where you don't have another activity.

[Morgan]

You want to wrestle?

[Bobby Bones]

You're going to put a man in the living room and just wrestle your son.

[Eddie]

Y' all know what I'm talking about.

[Amy]

Like, another activity to go to.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what it's about, you know, when I have a Yoda Moore event.

[Morgan]

Busy, busy life.

[Amy]

It's like, you know, our kids don't have to be in everything.

[Morgan]

It helps. It's better for them, you know, to.

[Caller]

What?

[Amy]

How do you know that?

[Morgan]

Well. Cause my kids are in everything and you seem exhausted.

[Amy]

Like, we don't.

[Morgan]

Well, I'm exhausted. But I'm saying for them, though, they like it. And at the end of the day, they feel like, ooh, what a day. Like, I did a lot today.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

And me and mom are like, we're exhausted. But it's for them.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

I don't know. I think we've gone sideways with, like, our kids need to be involved in everything.

[Eddie]

It's just about Amy needing some relaxation time.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's like, also, you're not telling him to be involved in everything. He's asking you if he can do something else, right?

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

There's no good or bad here. I'm just asking questions.

[Amy]

I know, I know. I'm being weird.

[Bobby Bones]

But you're cool now.

[Amy]

It's weird. It's just a weird.

[Bobby Bones]

You're cool, Amy. You do what you want to do.

[Amy]

It's a weird thing.

[Bobby Bones]

She does what she wants to do, says what she want to say. Do you remember that song? They do what they want to do, say what they want to say.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

What is that? Play how they want to play it.

[Amy]

Sounds familiar.

[Bobby Bones]

That's how they want to dance it. The Addams Family is MC Hammer's version of the Addams Family.

[Morgan]

Oh, that's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

From back in the day. Yeah. All right. There's a viral video I meant to mention this Monday. I had a note, forgot. There's a video of a guy and he is showing through his side view mirror the person behind them, like, the school line. And they are going crazy. They're like. Like this old lady, like, yelling.

[Amy]

She's crashing out.

[Bobby Bones]

She's like, yeah, big time. Crash out. And he's like, recording her. And the video goes viral because she's going crazy. But I got it sent to me so many times because as he's recording this video of her, our show is playing in the background. No, that's funny. Yeah, No, I watched you hear Raymondo talking in it. Ray's like, what? Ray's. All right, here's the game we're going to play here. We. I mean, Morgan commented on it from the Bobby Bone show account, but it was on Fjerry and.

[Amy]

Oh, that's funny. I saw the video, but I don't think I had volume up.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah, the volume up is us.

[Morgan]

That's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

It's Ray setting up a bit like a tease. The guy's listening to the show, and she's going. She's, like, hitting her steering wheel, like, cussing at him.

[Amy]

Yeah, she's not happy.

[Bobby Bones]

And you hear Ray, like, all right. The top three things to eat on a Thursday. So do we have it? The audio? It's not great. We have something. Ray, hit it. So I'm gonna give you the title of a theme song. You're gonna tell me the show. Go ahead.

[Eddie]

Moving on up.

[Morgan]

This lady's crashing out.

[Bobby Bones]

Vision Hole. Andy Griffith. Correct.

[Morgan]

Oh, wow, that's the name of that one.

[Bobby Bones]

Blossom. Me Knock in the middle. Correct.

[Amy]

Oh, I got in there.

[Bobby Bones]

So, Eddie.

[Morgan]

I mean, we were a big part of that video.

[Amy]

I was just more of a. Oh, did you hear at the end, three.

[Bobby Bones]

Of us went viral? Wow.

[Morgan]

Somebody wasn't in that video.

[Eddie]

I didn't get in.

[Morgan]

Why not?

[Amy]

Hey, lunchbox. I barely made it.

[Eddie]

I don't know. You know why? Because that was the victory. Live after Bobby won. So we were supposed to be sitting out, but Eddie was still, you know, trying to hog the spotlight from Bobby.

[Morgan]

I was trying to get into viral video.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, the point is, that was on in his car as she was crashing out.

[Amy]

So where does the guy live? They got the guy that went viral.

[Bobby Bones]

I assume when anybody is doing anything crazy, it's Tampa. Just. Just in general.

[Morgan]

Florida.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I just assume it's. It's in Tampa always. It's not. I was just told it was Denver.

[Amy]

In Tampa, Florida.

[Bobby Bones]

Anytime I see anybody going crazy and we're involved in, like, playing, I'm like, it must be Tampa.

[Morgan]

That's fair.

[Bobby Bones]

But no, it was in Denver, Colorado. It says, we're in a school zone. This lady's crashing out.

[Amy]

That's funny.

[Morgan]

So was she mad at him? Like, is.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Something he did, I think.

[Amy]

Or she's mad. She had her own issue in life.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, but I think he, like, cut in front of her or something.

[Morgan]

Got it.

[Bobby Bones]

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

[Amy]

Okay, so heads up. If you have Neutrogena makeup wipes, and I sometimes have these, my. My daughter likes to use them. They've been recalled across four states after bacteria was found in the product. So Texas, South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida, which I know we have a lot of listeners.

[Morgan]

That's ironic. You know, you use wipes to clean your face, and you're getting bacteria on there.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You know what I thought about yesterday, a lot.

[Morgan]

That.

[Bobby Bones]

That AIDS could live on a needle, like, live in the syringe.

[Morgan]

You know, I thought about that too.

[Bobby Bones]

Because I was wrong about that. I was like, I don't think it can live on, but in the right situation, so protected, it can live in a needle for, like, 40 days. And I don't think it's really going to live on a needle in a phone booth like they told us back in the day. But that was a good point, because I. I said. I used to believe that, and I think it was you who said, what about. Or maybe you. Needles. Needles. I'm like, oh, yeah, yeah.

[Morgan]

Well, because oddly, we were watching. My son and I were watching a movie, and in the movie, somebody gets stabbed with a syringe and he freaks out, right?

[Bobby Bones]

Like, the.

[Morgan]

The guy freaks out that he got stabbed. And my son's, like, legitimately goes, why is he freaking out? Like, it's just a needle. I was like, no, you can get, like, diseases through a needle. And I had that whole discussion after we talked about that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I thought about it a lot. HIV is more stable at cooler temperatures. It can survive for longer in a refrigerator or at room temperature. It needs moisture to survive. So if it's a dry needle, it. The virus is inactive. So that's why it wouldn't work in a phone booth as much. But if it is in, like, a. In a syringe and you're reusing that needle, it can have it on it.

[Morgan]

Where it's, like, closed off from air, I guess.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Yeah, I thought about. Yeah, it's crazy. That name is Coat Eddie. I just. Hey, we're just thinking about the same stuff recently, I guess. We like your coat, though, so don't do a dumb and dumber crash out on us.

[Amy]

Oh, no, I'm not.

[Bobby Bones]

Because I like your coat. The whole point was it was cool.

[Amy]

I could be vulnerable to a crash out. Not gonna lie, but I think I'm okay. And. No, I think I saw that as a compliment. The sweater from back in the day, like, y' all went hard.

[Eddie]

That was bad.

[Bobby Bones]

I think you were just in a bad spot.

[Amy]

Well, I was on Clomid.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So your hormones were all out of control because you were trying to get pregnant. Yeah, I think it was a mixture. It was a funny sweater, and it.

[Amy]

Did look like I was so cute when I got ready for work that day. And then that quickly changed when I saw these guys.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it was still cute. We just. You just look like Jeff Bridges from Dumb and Dumber.

[Amy]

No, y'. All were like, what's a stupid sweater you're wearing?

[Bobby Bones]

We never said that. Stupid sweater.

[Amy]

But that's the filter. That's the plumbing filter.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what you got.

[Amy]

And so then it just led. Y', all, like, would not let it go. And then I guess I just needed to cry. So I started crying.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

And then remember when Eddie wore one that looked just like it a few years ago?

[Morgan]

Well, then you passed it on to me, Amy, because I walked in with a cool sweater that I thought was cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Cool.

[Morgan]

George Burge gave it to me as a gift.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't remember this.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah.

[Eddie]

And Eddie's not worn it since. He's not worn it since.

[Morgan]

And I see it in my closet all the time. I'm just like, I can't do it.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, it must be.

[Morgan]

Can't do it.

[Bobby Bones]

That golf brand. Yes.

[Morgan]

I don't know which one. Malbon.

[Bobby Bones]

Malbon.

[Morgan]

Malbon.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what my sweater is now.

[Amy]

What is that with the cute m. Yeah, it's Malbon.

[Bobby Bones]

I wear a lot of Malbon stuff.

[Morgan]

And I thought it was so. Cause it's different. Like it's large, you know, and just kind of loose.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't remember that one. I wish I did. I'd like to get a laugh right now.

[Eddie]

Oh, my gosh. We all laughed at him. And Amy goes, this is what it was like. This is fun.

[Morgan]

It out on me for sure. Because I wasn't there when Amy wore her. Her sweater.

[Amy]

Yeah, it was a while back.

[Bobby Bones]

It was a wild time.

[Amy]

Oh, that was.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a wild time in general.

[Amy]

Yeah. It was probably about, what, 2009 or something?

[Bobby Bones]

The good old days. It was. Those were the good old days.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, for sure, Eddie.

[Morgan]

So Michael Dell, you know Michael Dell, he is the founder of Dell Computers. His son Zach, I was reading about him and he's starting his own business.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm looking at your old sweater. Yeah. Dude, that's terrible.

[Morgan]

Stop, stop.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, you were just not wearing it with the right shirt either.

[Morgan]

The undershirt.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it was like that free button up shirt we got from Jake's golf tournament.

[Morgan]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

It just wasn't. The vibe wasn't right.

[Morgan]

Should I try it again, though?

[Bobby Bones]

I think you can with just a T shirt. I think it's fun. We're gonna laugh now because we know it.

[Morgan]

I wore it to church like a few months ago and somebody literally told me, like, that's cool sweater, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I think it works. Just the whole vibe. There wasn't. And we probably were just Prickly that.

[Morgan]

Day too, you guys.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a mix of how the room.

[Morgan]

Feels and you guys went hard on me. Yeah, I never got over that.

[Bobby Bones]

We're sorry about that. Okay, so Michael Dill son Zach Ye.

[Morgan]

Zach Dell. He's got a company and he's trying to change how we look at energy, like in our homes. So instead of like, you know, gas generators that they have now for when your power goes out, his company is doing a generator. But it's a battery that sits outside your house. And for $19 a month, it's a membership fee. You have energy that you have constantly. If this works, you may not need to use an electric company at all.

[Bobby Bones]

So period.

[Morgan]

Period.

[Bobby Bones]

That's crazy.

[Morgan]

So to think about that is nuts. He says that.

[Bobby Bones]

Are these for sale now?

[Morgan]

Yes, in Texas. They have them in three cities in Texas. The three major cities in Texas.

[Bobby Bones]

I need to get a generator for our house.

[Morgan]

Dude, look into this.

[Amy]

You don't have one?

[Bobby Bones]

We have a small one for like the studio. And then we have no. And every time it like snows, but power goes out, I get so jealous because I hear all the neighbors of power.

[Amy]

I mean, I don't have one, but I'm just surprised. I figured DIU would.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think we do. We did have one at our old house.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And then.

[Amy]

But so at least you have one for the studio. So you can.

[Bobby Bones]

There's one there.

[Morgan]

Yeah, I have one. But it just powers like a lamp that's small.

[Amy]

That's not going to be. I know. The worst is when, yeah, the power goes out and you do hear all your neighbors, they're like firing it up and you're like, okay, show off where they're like freezing.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm hugging the dog to stay warm. Yeah. I never really think about it until the power goes out. And I'm like, man, we should really get a generator.

[Amy]

Yeah, they're expensive.

[Bobby Bones]

And then I'm like, for sure we're going to get one. As soon as the power comes back on, power comes back on. I don't think about it again until the power goes back off. But that would be cool to have a subscription model. 19 bucks a month.

[Morgan]

There's a one time cost of $695. And that's the battery. That's like the whole.

[Bobby Bones]

That's all. That's the whole thing.

[Morgan]

You buy it one time and then it's 19 bucks a month to have your power.

[Bobby Bones]

And I can't order one to here.

[Morgan]

I mean, it's not available anywhere. Else. It's just in Texas right now, but I'm sure you can ask someone.

[Bobby Bones]

I'd like to have one.

[Eddie]

So. Wait a minute. So it's only if your power goes out for.

[Morgan]

For now, it acts as a generator. Yeah, but they're trying to make it to where? Cuz it powers up your. It powers your whole house. So it has enough energy for your whole house. But they're trying to get it to where, like, this could be the future of energy.

[Bobby Bones]

I would imagine that it's not large enough to power the whole house for a long period of time. Right.

[Eddie]

That's what I was.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So.

[Morgan]

And then it's like a battery and you have to recharge it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, so. But a larger battery would last longer. And part of that membership fee is probably having somebody servicing it. Meaning coming to recharge it once every a couple of months. I don't know the specifics, but I would think that that would be.

[Morgan]

Yeah, I think that's. That's how it works. But I thought it's so cool that this guy, like, he must have grown up with just like, ideas flying around their house.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, and access. Access to a great education, the best tutors, teachers. Obviously genetically, probably pretty smart if his dad's that. Yeah. Access.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You have a lot of access.

[Morgan]

That's pretty cool.

[Bobby Bones]

The ability to just go and create because you have to worry about.

[Caller]

You.

[Bobby Bones]

Know, some of the insecurities that even physical or natural, that some people have to deal with, you know, like we. Us growing up, we didn't just get to go chase all of our dreams. We had to get a job, pay for gas and stuff, you know, and.

[Morgan]

Then asking my dad about things, like I never knew if it was gonna be the right answer or not.

[Bobby Bones]

And I bet his dad is an encourager. He was a entrepreneur.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Probably breeds that within the house when.

[Morgan]

He fly like a chopper to work.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know much about him.

[Morgan]

I just hear stories.

[Bobby Bones]

I never met him. You ever meet Michael Dell?

[Caller]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

You did?

[Morgan]

Never. I mean, we were in the same room, but we didn't meet. Like, I went to a place where he was speaking.

[Bobby Bones]

Got it. That was cool.

[Eddie]

That's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, Morgan.

[Amy]

I feel like there's only gonna be two, maybe three of us in this room that are this. But, Bobby, are you group seven?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah. For sure.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And how do I know Sophia James? Like I know her from something.

[Morgan]

What are you talking about?

[Bobby Bones]

What is Group 7?

[Amy]

You have to be Group 7 to understand what we're talking About.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, she did this. You can tell the story. I'm sorry. Go ahead.

[Amy]

Yeah, it's okay. I don't know if you. She's just a artist on TikTok, so.

[Bobby Bones]

Maybe I know her from something.

[Amy]

Really?

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like maybe TikTok. She's. Guys, I know I see her on TikTok because I see all the video, but I like, feel like I know her from something else.

[Amy]

Oh, let me see if she's in.

[Bobby Bones]

Or she looks like somebody, but. So she did these videos and she created multiple videos. Like, if you're group one, you're this. If you're group two, you're this. And so group seven is the one. Like, it's like it was like the helper. The good person group. Yeah.

[Amy]

And it was just like playing a clip of her song. The whole purpose was to get her music out there. But what's crazy is group seven has like 77 million views now.

[Bobby Bones]

Group seven votes for Andy on Dancing with the Stars. Oh, really?

[Morgan]

Yeah. That's cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. But so now every.

[Amy]

Like, everybody's getting into it. There's signs all over. There's signs here locally that businesses are just say, group seven. Oh, that's. Yeah. And it's become this whole thing. So if you're group seven, I guess you're a good person.

[Bobby Bones]

If not, then you suck.

[Eddie]

So the other ones, they're no good. Like the other 7 video, they're just different.

[Bobby Bones]

It's like the Enneagram even. It's like it just a kind of.

[Amy]

Well, seven is what went viral. So she made seven and her goal was to figure out, okay, which one of these, if any of them are going to go viral. And she labeled them and it was all music promotion. By the way, her song was featured in some way, shape or form in the clip. And then seven was her final one and she threw that up and that's the one that went viral. So therefore, if you've seen and helped spread group seven, you're part of group seven. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And it's virality has become a story which has made it even more viral.

[Amy]

Yeah. Yeah. Because this is a very common thing on algorithm. People will try this and they'll send out multiple different. And be like, if you're seeing this one, it means this is meant for you. It's kind of a thing to try and test the algorithm, if you will. But Group 7 for some reason just took off. Like, I don't. It's rare for something to have 77 million views.

[Caller]

Yeah.

[Amy]

I feel like I'd make six, seven, eight videos or something.

[Bobby Bones]

Six, seven.

[Amy]

Yeah. I feel like I would make multiple videos. Lunchbox. You know what that is?

[Eddie]

Multiple videos.

[Amy]

No, six, seven.

[Eddie]

Yes, I know what that is, Amy.

[Amy]

Well, you didn't know group seven, so I feel like I'm glad I should.

[Morgan]

Treat him like a child.

[Eddie]

Exactly.

[Amy]

That was a joke.

[Morgan]

No, no, no.

[Bobby Bones]

But I mean, can I answer the question? Because he's like, I don't know how to call my advisor. Utsa.

[Eddie]

Hold on. I don't know what group seven was either. So you didn't make fun of Eddie.

[Bobby Bones]

No, but that's the answer to that question. Because there's. Sometimes he acts like a child, sometimes he doesn't. So when he's treated like that, people are like, why are you treating him like a child? Well, it's like. Cause 20 minutes ago, it's like, I don't know how to dial a phone to call utsa.

[Eddie]

Right.

[Morgan]

And I get that. But, like. Like, I said something the other day, and Amy's like, idiot.

[Bobby Bones]

But, like, with Lunchbox, you were acting like an idiot.

[Morgan]

But, like, with Lunchbox, she's like, oh, yeah, Lunchbox it is Group seven. Do you know what that means?

[Bobby Bones]

I think she feels like he's a little more special.

[Morgan]

Got it.

[Bobby Bones]

She get what you do? Treat him like he's more special. Yeah.

[Eddie]

You treat him with care.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, they can both say the stupidest thing. And for Eddie, you'll be like, dummy. You're a piece of crap, you idiot. And we get a good laugh. And with him, you're like. You're like, it's okay, buddy.

[Eddie]

Yeah. You act like I need longer on a test.

[Morgan]

Right, right, right.

[Eddie]

Like you really do.

[Amy]

Yeah, well, I need longer on a test.

[Eddie]

Well, I don't.

[Morgan]

Well, he gets defensive. I don't need time.

[Eddie]

I mean, Eddie didn't know what group 7 was the same as me, but you're the only one that goes, okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Handle him with care.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

And she does the. I think she knows you can take it.

[Amy]

But with both of them, it's still a joking relationship. It's not like I'm really calling Eddie an idiot.

[Morgan]

I know that, and I'm not offended by it. But you're all like, stupid, idiot. And then you go to lunch with Lunchy.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, it's definitely different. It's definitely different.

[Caller]

Not always.

[Morgan]

No.

[Bobby Bones]

No. But it's a lot. Okay, but you. Everybody treats everybody different.

[Morgan]

Oh, is it because, like, you're worried maybe he'll snap?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that's part of it, too. You don't Think we're all kind of scared of that tippy toe around.

[Eddie]

Well, then you guys would all be a lot nicer to me.

[Bobby Bones]

Like Scuba Steve and Lunchbox. I mean, they are rageful. Could be Scuba Steve doesn't get rageful.

[Morgan]

To us, but at a Ross. Was it Ross?

[Bobby Bones]

But you choked a guy once and blacked out, and we haven't stopped thinking about that.

[Morgan]

People are stupid and a waste of space.

[Eddie]

They just. I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

But you guys.

[Eddie]

I like you guys, so we're good.

[Amy]

Okay. Well, anywho, anyway.

[Bobby Bones]

Sorry.

[Amy]

If I were to make several videos to see which one went viral, like, none of them would. And then I would have, like, eight of the same videos with, like, low views.

[Bobby Bones]

But you shouldn't be embarrassed because nobody saw them even though they didn't get seen.

[Amy]

Oh, true, true.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, Amy, you did yours, I did Watchbox. Do yours.

[Eddie]

I haven't done mine.

[Bobby Bones]

Go ahead.

[Amy]

Morgan did hers.

[Eddie]

What's that movie you like with the monkeys? 28 days later where they all the diseases and they get out. They infect the world. Well, it came true in Mississippi. Did you see this?

[Morgan]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

The truck jumped over, all the monkeys got out.

[Eddie]

Yeah. Tulane had these monkeys that they were doing research on that have hepatitis, herpes, and Covid.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, my gosh.

[Eddie]

And the truck overturned.

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Morgan]

Monkeys are running wild. Are they still loose?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I think so.

[Eddie]

Well, they've gotten all of them but one last time. But they didn't catch them. They had to pop.

[Bobby Bones]

Pop.

[Eddie]

They had to kill them because they couldn't catch them.

[Morgan]

That's not fair.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, it also is not fair. They had to give them all Covid and herpes and hepatit.

[Morgan]

Right. They didn't just get it.

[Bobby Bones]

Sounds like Lunchbox's timeline on our show. All the things that he's had.

[Eddie]

No, I'm not kidding. I've never had herpes or hepatitis.

[Bobby Bones]

You had hepatitis, didn't you?

[Amy]

Some are asymptomatic.

[Eddie]

I had tuberculosis. Totally different.

[Bobby Bones]

Do we check you for hepatitis?

[Amy]

Oh, he had syphilis. Tuberculosis and yeast infection of the throat.

[Eddie]

I never had syphilis.

[Bobby Bones]

It all sounds like all the diseases. Like, we have a timeline of our show since we started. That sounds like the different seasons. All the lunchbox diseases.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but they had to kill him because they were worried they're gonna go because they're aggressive monkeys and they were out in the community and they had the.

[Amy]

So sad.

[Morgan]

But you don't want the alternative of, like, monkey.

[Bobby Bones]

You're in a bar, next thing you know, you're hooking up to one of them. You got one of the diseases.

[Eddie]

Like, kids are playing on the playground at school, and all sudden there's an aggressive monkey out there giving them hepatitis.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, you're at the Electric Cowboy having some drinks. Monkey catches your eye. He's moving pretty good. Next thing you know, you got herpes.

[Morgan]

All right, so how many monkeys are loose now?

[Eddie]

They've killed all but one, but okay. They were searching for him for hours, all day yesterday.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

That's terrible.

[Bobby Bones]

We'll take a break. Is it? I got their story out.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

I'm going to assume that everybody messages their friends. I'm also going to assume that sometimes you run into issues when messaging, especially during group chats. It is really important that my digital messaging is clear. No mistakes. It's also important when I send messages that they send quickly and that I get responses quickly. WhatsApp can help with all that. First, you can message privately with everyone in a group, even if you're using totally different phones. Sent a message too fast and you regret it? No problem. Just edit it. And when the chat gets a little too intense, you can switch to a group video call and actually talk it out. Photos and videos come through. Clear messages get delivered without gaps or delays. Plus, WhatsApp has so many great features like polls, pinned messages, even event invites with RSVPs. So planning stuff just doesn't turn into a big ol mess. It just makes a lot of sense. It's time for WhatsApp message privately with everyone now streaming on Paramount.

And then I was watching Dancing with the Stars on my phone. Laying in the same bed. That's what married couples do.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And so it was the Halloween show, and they had multiple dances. And I did watch the Thunder come back and win, but mostly I was focused on dancing. And so I'm watching the show. And up until this episode this week, the big drama had been Max, who's one of the old dancers, like, old professionals. He was talking about how this guy, Jan, it's a guy, he's Taylor Swift's backup dancer, but he's one of the professionals on the show. Like, he wasn't really qualified to be a professional on the show because that's ballroom dancing. And not only are you supposed to be a good dancer, but you're supposed to really have the fundamentals to teach. And he was. He wasn't really, like, dragging him, but he was. I don't think he's qualified to be doing what he's doing as far as teaching someone who doesn't know how to dance. Okay, so big drama in the DWTS community. And so going into the show last night, you wondered, would Andy go home? I didn't want Andy to go home. I'm rooting for Andy and Emma all the way. And then there was that drama. And, you know, when went home was Taylor Swift's backup dancer. Oh, and Jen Affleck from Mormon Wives. I was surprised.

[Amy]

So did she feel, like, slighted?

[Bobby Bones]

There's no slight.

[Amy]

Well, okay, so like. But she got a. Because you had an answer that couldn't maybe properly teach her.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, she was saying, don't slander my coach. And when you get into that show, you only know what you know. You could be matched up with anybody and just be like, yeah, they're a great teacher, because you haven't experienced any of the other teachers. So I don't know. I think it was a brilliant casting move to put one of Taylor Swift's backup dancers in the show. But he probably wasn't qualified to teach ballroom. That's a whole different animal. Like, when you look at me, I'm a hip hop dancer.

[Morgan]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

But then I had to learn ballroom, naturally. Yeah. But, yeah, they went home. I couldn't believe It. I was like, oh, dang.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Amy]

But your people are still in.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, they're still in.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I'm rooting for him. I'm rooting for Emma and Andy. Yeah, that happened. What else happened last night? There's a couple things where I was like, man, I should talk about this. I kind of forgot I was into it.

[Morgan]

I was just.

[Amy]

You mean it happened on the show?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, they told. Yeah, they told Andy and Emma, like, before they even got to the bottom three, and they do something that's dumb now. They don't really put the bottom three in the bottom three. They're, like, in no order. Here are the three contestants left, and then they kick somebody off. They really should put the bottom three in there because then we have no idea who. We should be, like, teaming up to vote for the next week. But before they did the last three, they cleared Emma and Andy.

[Amy]

Are you voting?

[Bobby Bones]

I might have voted for Emma and Andy a few times. Yeah.

[Morgan]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

You text.

[Amy]

Yeah, it's easy. You just text about.

[Morgan]

Yeah, I remember doing that.

[Amy]

Yeah. Did that for you a lot. That's about the last time I did it, though.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't really watch the show religiously, like, every season. I don't have somebody that I'm rooting for. I really like Emma. She's one of my favorite people on that whole show. And I like Andy Richter a lot. I don't know him, so I'm rooting for him. And, oh, the other thing was the parent trap. Okay. So the show back in the day movie, Lindsay Lohan, the mean mom.

[Amy]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. So she's on the show, and so she's dancing with Alan, who also really, like, who's Emma's boyfriend. And Emma used to be married to Sasha, who Sasha was. Is a pro. And Sasha was going to dance, supposedly with Bill Belichick's girlfriend, but she backed out last minute.

[Morgan]

Oh, she's still part of the show.

[Amy]

Interesting.

[Bobby Bones]

Sasha is, and he would have been on this season, but apparently Bill Belichick's girlfriend backed out last minute, so that.

[Morgan]

Would have been awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

All that to be said. The parent trap woman, like, cracked a rib before the show in, like, a rehearsal. She couldn't even be on the show last night.

[Morgan]

Dang.

[Bobby Bones]

And it was Alan standing up there by himself. But they still gave her votes and scores because what happens if you can't show up to the show? Let's say you get sick. They look at your dress rehearsal and they judge that.

[Morgan]

Whoa.

[Amy]

Really?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Instead of just kicking you off, they judge the dress rehearsal, and your name goes up for votes.

[Amy]

So, Elaine Hendricks.

[Bobby Bones]

Yep. Okay, they made it. Now up on the stage, everybody's in their little couple thing. Everybody's standing with their person, and Alan's standing by himself.

[Morgan]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

She was in the hospital. So. Yeah, the show, it's back, baby. It's doing really great in the ratings. Like, I did a couple videos.

[Amy]

Yeah, I feel like it's having a comeback big time.

[Bobby Bones]

I did a couple videos about it, and they just blew up on TikTok, like, millions of views. And I was like, well, I never have watched my videos back from when I danced on the show. So, like, I'm doing that whole series of me dancing or me watching my dances, and I'm starting to kind of, like, not hate myself. Huh. I never watched them because I just knew inside what I was dealing with. And then it was really hard, and I wasn't good. But, like, I'm seeing real growth and, like, I don't cringe as much every.

[Amy]

Time, like, each episode.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I think I'm on, like, dance seven, and I've put. You can go to my Instagram, Mr. Bobby Bones. But, yeah, just kind of reliving those. A little trauma at the beginning and just thinking about, like, how tired I.

[Morgan]

Was because you're still working.

[Bobby Bones]

We do the radio show, and then I would go and train for eight, nine hours. I would go back just. Just to go to sleep, get up, do it again, man. Brutal. But anyway, yeah. Taylor Swift's backup dance and went home. It's big drama after all that week leading up to it. So that's what's up. You guys can call us 877-7 Bobby. That's our phone number. 877-B- O- B Y. Bones, tell me about this Famous Last Words show, but don't spoil it.

[Amy]

Okay, Let me be careful with my words here. But it's something really cool that I just learned about. And I watched the Jane Goodall episode, and the only reason why that one has recently passed away. So what they did is they filmed all these interviews with people, and I guess they have them in a vault, and then when someone passes away, they're able to upload it. And so it's Famous Last Words. And it's an interview, a sit down that they do with the. With the famous person or the well known person. And then the person interviewing even kind of leaves at the end, and the person just left there to just speak to the camera and give their last words. And they even know themselves. Nobody's gonna watch this until I die.

[Bobby Bones]

Dang. That gives me, like, chills a little bit.

[Amy]

Yeah. So it's on Netflix, and Jane Goodall's the only episode that's up right now.

[Bobby Bones]

So that's not like a wait till next Thursday. We got somebody else for you.

[Amy]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Because they can't, like, kill people off.

[Morgan]

So what do they do? Just wait till they die and then.

[Bobby Bones]

Literally, what it is.

[Amy]

Yeah. Like, you're not like. I guess we don't even know who's next or who they have.

[Bobby Bones]

They're queued up.

[Amy]

I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

And if they come to you and they're casting that show, that's not good. And they're like, hey, you know, we're thinking about using you. You're like, what, am I about to die?

[Morgan]

You know what's crazy? When I worked for the news, we had a Willie Nelson obituary that I worked on, like, 15 years ago. So, I mean, I guess every time, like, just something happens in life, they just keep adding to it.

[Bobby Bones]

But the difference is you have to do the work here. You have to be the person. Like, a lot of network news, they have obituaries for old celebrities. Just plug and play. Because they are doing it with this. It's you doing it, and when you die, it gets released. So, yeah, it's a bit morbid. It's almost like, I don't want to make a will for a long time because I thought as soon as I did, I would die.

[Amy]

Right. Yeah. It's like, as soon as you record this, you're like, okay, when's it gonna happen?

[Bobby Bones]

Or I think there'd be some kind of Netflix mercenary that as soon as they recorded it, they were like, we need another episode to go out. So they'd be like a killer on a roof taking you down so they could release the episode.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

What'd you think about it?

[Amy]

Oh, I'm fascinated. I thought it was really cool. I don't know if. Because when I was younger, I played Jane Goodall.

[Morgan]

What do you mean, you played her?

[Amy]

Well, I had to do a project, and you had to immerse yourself as somebody well known. And I spent the night on my front porch.

[Bobby Bones]

Did you do monkeys?

[Amy]

Yeah. And I. Yeah. Gorilla. Yes. Chimpanzees. And I filmed myself as Jane Goodall on my front porch. Maybe I felt a special connection to this one, but she's just. She was just a good person.

[Bobby Bones]

Anybody that loves animals, and there's a deeper, like, love for humanity there.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So I don't. I Didn't know her, never met her, but I feel that way about her. Just watching clips, but just the show itself. Meaning we're only going to see people. And then also, you know, what we're going to be doing is when someone dies, we're going to be going to Netflix, see if there was an episode.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Like just. Just randomly, somebody died. Oh, I wonder if they did one.

[Amy]

And then if you're old, like, I'm also. I also thought about it this way, too. Like, if you're older and they haven't gone down, dude, you're like, what? Do you not think I have good last words?

[Bobby Bones]

Am I not trendy enough?

[Amy]

Right. Or do I not have wisdom to offer?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's good.

[Amy]

So, yeah. Famous last words.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know if I would watch that show. Not because it doesn't sound awesome, but the mortality of it.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I would need to be in a comfortable place.

[Amy]

Like, I bet you would probably really excited to see David Letterman. Right.

[Bobby Bones]

But I don't want him to die.

[Amy]

That's what I'm saying. But then at the same time, you don't want to see it because that would mean he's gone.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

You know, it's tricky.

[Bobby Bones]

It's all. Yeah, yeah. Let me go over and talk to Curtis, who is on in Palm Harbor, Florida. Hey, Curtis, I'm gonna put you on, but you cannot spoil the end of anything, okay?

[Caller]

The end of anything.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Morning. What's up, buddy?

[Caller]

Have you seen the episode you're chopping out?

[Bobby Bones]

Have I seen what? Okay, we're gonna have to. We'll turn him down because he's in a bad spot. I have watched the Diplomat all of season three. Excellent. Four and a half out of five. I think I said, like, United Kingdoms or London's or something. I think it's excellent. It's such a good show.

[Eddie]

So what is it about?

[Amy]

I like it, too. That's all I can say.

[Bobby Bones]

Have you finished it?

[Amy]

No, but apparently I spoiled something to my boyfriend the other day and he was not happy.

[Bobby Bones]

And he's like, you want to know?

[Amy]

And no, but I've really been working on it.

[Bobby Bones]

That's what you're known for.

[Amy]

But what I said wasn't really gonna give anything away, but he's like, well, I didn't know that part.

[Bobby Bones]

And I'm like, yeah, it's a.

[Amy]

Then catch up.

[Bobby Bones]

Keri Russell is an ambassador.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And it's. It's her story. And she's also. Her husband's part of it. And that's what's up?

[Amy]

Yeah, they're just in politics, you know.

[Bobby Bones]

That'S just what's up, Curtis. I'll try you one more time. Curtis. I really loved it. I loved all three seasons, and I feel like it's one of those rare shows that got better every single season, and every single season was really good.

[Caller]

I agree. The reason I started watching is because you mentioned it, and I was like, man, that sounds good. I'm not much of a politics, but after watching all three episodes, I'm like, holy shit, drop him.

[Amy]

He must have been all three seasons, too.

[Morgan]

Yeah, that's what we're dropping.

[Bobby Bones]

Can't say that word. I know.

[Eddie]

It was seasons. Can't say that word.

[Amy]

Dang. He must have really liked it.

[Morgan]

People forget.

[Bobby Bones]

I can't even turn him up. All right, Curtis, Hope you have a good day, buddy.

[Amy]

I think where he was going with that was.

[Bobby Bones]

It's not political.

[Amy]

Right. But it's.

[Bobby Bones]

But it has to do crazy. Yeah. It has to do with, like, president, vice president, but it's not really coming from a political bias in any way.

[Amy]

No. You're not like. Like, depending on where you belong on the political spectrum. You're not annoyed either way.

[Bobby Bones]

Way to get that dropped in time, guys. Shagging.

[Morgan]

Yeah, I hit it immediately, but I'm listening to the. The delay. Just make sure.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, well, if it did go over the air, our apologies. Let's go over to Mindy, who is listening in Oklahoma. Mindy, you're on.

[Caller]

Yes, hello. Good morning.

[Bobby Bones]

Good morning. What can I do for you?

[Caller]

Oh, I was just calling about Dancing with the Stars. I heard some of your conversation, and you may have already talked about this, but I'm wondering why Andy Richter is still on there.

[Bobby Bones]

What do you mean you're wondering why? He's loved by many.

[Caller]

Is that why because he's not very good at dancing?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, yeah, it has to be because they. Because there's money involved in those shows. There are federal laws against rigging competitive television shows that involve money. So there was a big scandal back in the black and white TV days. It's really why the law even happens Now. I can ask my assistant for the official. It's like the $64,000 question, I think is what it was called. It's one of those numbers. But they. They cannot rig a television show that has money involved for the same reason you can't rig a lottery, because literally, there's money involved. So it was a. What's that? Let me just ask my assistant here. When it comes to legal matters, my Assistant knows it all. Hello and good morning. Hey, I'm looking for the story about the old game show in the black and white days where there was controversy, and now there's a federal law that says you can't rig a game show with money. Can you give me more details about that? Good morning. Absolutely. I know exactly what you're talking about. So back in the 1950s, there was a huge scandal involving TV quiz shows. One of the most infamous cases was a show called 21. Basically, the producers were feeding answers to certain contestants to make the show more dramatic and boost ratings. It all came crashing down when one of the contestants, a guy named Charles Van Doren, admitted he'd been coached. That caused a national uproar. As a result, Congress actually passed laws to prohibit rigging quiz shows. So, yeah, that scandal literally led to federal regulations that say you can't fix a game show for a particular outcome anymore. It's a pretty wild piece of TV history. So you can't rig a show like that because everybody's getting paid.

[Morgan]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

And you would basically be just stealing money. A producer could decide to not give this person money because they didn't like them. So they have to give everybody similar advantages. So that's the answer. So the show is not rigged. The show cannot be rigged because somebody would go to jail, and it's not worth that.

[Morgan]

So it's gotta be because he's loved.

[Amy]

Yeah, he's liked.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, wow. Loved and liked.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

No, love. Strong, but no, I think he is loved.

[Amy]

Well, sure.

[Bobby Bones]

I think people love him on that show.

[Amy]

I know it depends on how you use the word love.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, it's not a semantics class here, but that's what's up, Mindy. And there's still a lot of people left. So when you have somebody who is popular and there's still, like, seven couples left, it's easier for those people to exist and stay longer. But you can't rig the show. So he's there fair and square. I'm talking like my assistant now.

[Morgan]

You are just like, why are you talking like that?

[Amy]

Y' all have like, he's there fair and square. Either you're talking like her, or she's talking like you.

[Morgan]

You're even like, you know, like, good morning.

[Amy]

Good morning. And then she's like, oh, good morning. I know exactly what you're talking about.

[Morgan]

Of course she does.

[Bobby Bones]

Mindy, what are your thoughts on that?

[Caller]

Oh, I knew it wasn't rigged. Really? I just have watched this show in the past, and. And I've never Seen somebody just stay on as long as he has. But I guess you're right. I guess he's just a popular guy. And I don't know, I've seen, you know, like, Alec Baldwin's wife. She got voted off, like, three or four weeks ago, and she was really good.

[Bobby Bones]

And, yeah, she was really unlikable, though. Like that show, you got to be able to dance a little bit, but you. It's. They say 50, 50, but it's really not 50 50, because you can cap out at a 10 in scores, and that's supposed to be 50% of the result, but you can. So let's say I get a say I get a 7, and Amy, you get a 10. Okay, you've beat me by 30%. Now on the other side, let's say I get 10 million votes, and you get 1 million votes. I've just beat you by 90%. So in reality, the weight is in the voting. That's really where you can make the biggest change. So if you're not liked, it doesn't matter how good of a dancer you are. The key is to be good and be liked and hopefully. And I don't want to get you guys fighting to be loved.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Morgan]

That's a lot.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. Yes. All right, Mindy, thank you for listening.

[Morgan]

Sure.

[Caller]

Y' all have a great day.

[Bobby Bones]

The oldest ever contestant to win Dancing with the Stars was Donny Osmond, who won season nine at age 51. He is the overall oldest winner, while the oldest female winner, Jennifer Grey, who won at age 50 in season 11.

[Morgan]

Oh, wow.

[Bobby Bones]

Andy Richter is 59, and both of.

[Amy]

Them are like dancers.

[Morgan]

Oh, Dirty Dancing. Right. That's her.

[Amy]

Jennifer Grey.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know if she just danced for that movie or if she was.

[Amy]

In a. I mean, I assumed to get cast for that role, she had to be a dancer.

[Bobby Bones]

We're gonna dive into that. Good morning.

[Amy]

So how did Jennifer Grey get her role as baby?

[Bobby Bones]

Jennifer Grey had dance training beginning with ballet classes at age 5 and continuing through her time at the Dalton, which had a strong arts curriculum. Despite this background, she did not consider herself a professional dancer and approached the dancing and dirty Dancing as an actress who learned her steps thoroughly. Yeah, and that's fair. But also, if you have a dance background, even if you weren't professional, it helps tremendously. Okay, thanks. Let's go to Liv in New Hampshire, who's on the phone. Hey, Liv, you're on.

[Caller]

Oh, hey. My name is Liv. I'm from New Hampshire, and I'm actually trying to surprise my boyfriend for his 40th birthday. He does not want a surprise party. So instead I got his family. Friends. My family, to do, like, videos to surprise him. And I'll do, like, a whole montage of videos. And at the end, it'll be me, kind of in real time, kind of not. He'll be opening presents. So I'm going to get him a Bills hat, which he already has. He's a huge Bills fan. Gloves, hand warmers, feet warmers. And at the end, I'm going to surprise him with Bill's Patriots tickets. We're in the nosebleed, but that's okay.

[Amy]

Fine.

[Caller]

But my question to you is, is there any point in the game before or after that players will sign autographs?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah, that's tough. Especially athletes. Now, I could tell you where to hide out or where to wait after a concert, because you can wait and there's always a back door for an artist to come out of. And usually it's like an hour and a half after the show or there's a bus. But with athletes, they definitely aren't anywhere specific. They have to arrive to the venue, to the. To the arena, but they do that hours early. And you got to know where they park, and it's only the home team. And then the same thing after. If you don't know the parking lot, you're not going to get there. I would advise you to get online and just buy a couple signed things to give him more so than to get someone there at the game to sign something. They're not that expensive.

[Caller]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

So if it's. I don't know what player, what player, you want to sign something.

[Caller]

But Allen, Josh Allen, of course, the big one, biggest one.

[Bobby Bones]

That'd be the most expensive one, too. Yeah. I. My advice to you would be. Because it's a crapshoot, just be. Buy something online that he signed a jersey or something, because you're probably not going to find them before or after a game.

[Caller]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Caller]

And do you think surprising him with, like, the videos with the family, and then because he hates surprise parties. So do you think that's like, I want a big reveal of the tickets. Is that a good way to do it? What do you think?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think there's a good or bad way. I don't know him. I don't like surprise parties if I know there's a surprise coming. I don't mind the surprise party if I don't even know there's a surprise coming.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

But if I'm starting to Be tipped off there might be a surprise. I hate it because it never meets the expectations of the surprise.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Morgan]

Yeah.

[Amy]

I'm not like that. I'm like, I can know something's coming. I'm still gonna.

[Bobby Bones]

I built it up too much.

[Amy]

Wanna figure it out. Yeah, I understand that.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So what do you say to her about that? About this situation?

[Amy]

I mean, we don't know him. Because if he's like you, he might.

[Bobby Bones]

Have heard this and it's like, well, I know there's a surprise coming.

[Amy]

Yeah, I mean, every.

[Bobby Bones]

I think he's gonna know the work that you put in, and I think that's what's gonna matter to him. That and going to the game, those are the two things that he's gonna care about the most. The work that you put into it and actually getting to go to the game. So surprise or not, I think that's a very loving gesture and I think he's gonna be super happy with it.

[Amy]

Where's the best place online to look for something?

[Bobby Bones]

If she were to quickly, I would just go to ebay. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, when's his birthday? I mean, if you got like two weeks out, you can get it in time from ebay. Because everybody wants that high, that five star, that seller reviews rating.

[Amy]

Yeah, that's where I got that. Who'd I get? Derek Jeter Ball you told me to get from ebay. Solid.

[Morgan]

When was that?

[Amy]

Last Christmas.

[Eddie]

Maybe that was when she wasn't out with her new dude, but she was.

[Amy]

Yeah, but Bobby helped me get him a gift.

[Eddie]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

Oh, okay.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know if I can talk about that. So I just stayed quiet over here.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah. That was like pre announcement.

[Bobby Bones]

I just hushed up.

[Amy]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I didn't know. I just never said much about it. Oh, yeah, yeah. Ebay's good. All right, Liv, good luck. I'm sorry about the autograph thing, but you can get him an autographed jersey online would be much easier, and it would be a for sure thing. Also, he's not going to want to go wait two hours before the game or three hours after the game for them to come out.

[Caller]

Perfect. Thank you so much.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, Bye, Liv.

[Caller]

Bye, Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

I got a message yesterday from Morgan Evans, who I really like, and he's just gone a lot. Like, he's from Australia, so he goes back and he tours very much Australia, very much the States. And we've had a couple seasons of our lives where we've been very close. When he was married, after he got divorced. But again, he's just gone so much. So I get a text from him. I hadn't talked to him in a few months. I got a text from him yesterday, and he was like, I might. Or I can just play the beginning of it. I'm not gonna play the whole thing. But he said something that was super interesting to me. Let's see. Morgan Evans. Here we go, mate. I'm just sitting here drinking some coffee. So it's very, very Australian, right? He's like, Mike. And so he has a new song that we played and played on the countdown. And he was like, hey, I saw that you played the song. And I don't reach out and be like, hey, we're playing your song. I just. If I like the song, I play it. And he was like, I didn't want. He said, I didn't want to reach out. He said, I saw that you and your wife are having a baby because I haven't talked to him in a few months. And he said, I was going to reach out when you posted that on Instagram, but I had a song that came out the second week. And I know you. And I know you think that people reach out when he said, so I purposefully didn't reach out to say, hey, I saw on Instagram your wife. Because I had a song out that week. I didn't want it to seem like I was only reaching out because I had a song out. And I was like, morgan Evans gets me.

[Morgan]

Respect.

[Bobby Bones]

I was like, he gets me. And I did messenger back. And I was like, I would never think you had an ulterior motive. Like, he's one of, like, the four people in this town. That I would never think there was an ulterior motive with anything. But I thought that was interesting that he. That that popped into his head. Like, I'm not gonna message him because I happen to have a song out the same week, and he'll think it's just me doing promotion of some kind. Also, that. I don't want to say it again, because I don't. I want to lead you there, but a blank. Motive. I just said it.

[Amy]

Oh, ulterior.

[Bobby Bones]

Spell it.

[Amy]

Oh, no. All al T, D tear. All terrier. A L, T E R I E.

[Bobby Bones]

R. I typed in the same thing over and over again, and it just. It wouldn't even autocorrect me.

[Morgan]

Me.

[Bobby Bones]

Because ulterior to me also feels like alternative. Like an ulterior motive would be like an alternative. Not the true motive you're trying, but it's ulterior.

[Amy]

With a u.

[Bobby Bones]

With a u. With a ulti. It's an ulterior motive, like ultim. And I kept trying to type it in as ulterior and not the word, just in case anybody's trying to spell ulterior motive, But I wrote that back to him. I don't think you have an ulterior motive.

[Amy]

Interesting.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I spelled it the same way. That's it, man.

[Morgan]

You know, you really screwed up when spellcheck doesn't catch it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Morgan]

You're like, I don't even know how to get spellcheck because I did it.

[Bobby Bones]

All the way and then I just took the back letter off, and then I. Okay. Put it back on and did a space after. And it gave me a couple other options. It then gave me the option to revert back to other wrong way. I spelled it in case I. Yeah, it was no help.

[Amy]

You want to know one I struggle with? It should be so easy. And spellcheck never catches it for me. And I know I'm close, so just go ahead and give it to me, you know? No, Foreign. And. And it doesn't ever just do it for me. I'm like, how do you know I'm not going for foreign here? Like, take the context of everything I'm saying and figure it out. You're a phone. You can figure it out. And I get so annoyed because. And I don't even ask me to spell foreign. I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

It's weird what words we have problems with, because I would assume to you, restaurant is not a hard one. Restaurant to me is a weird one.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Foreign to me is not a weird one. But I think probably all. Okay, spell it F O, R, E.

[Amy]

I, G, N, F, O, R, I.

[Bobby Bones]

No, E, I, E. I. I believe so. I just spelled it from R E.

[Amy]

I, G, N. I don't know.

[Morgan]

Sounds right.

[Eddie]

Sounds right.

[Morgan]

Who knows, man?

[Bobby Bones]

That's correct. Thank you.

[Amy]

Yeah. But why is it so hard for me to spell? And then when I get it, if I get it off a little bit, why doesn't it know how to correct me?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's the weird part.

[Amy]

Yeah. Cause it's like, I know it's messed.

[Bobby Bones]

Up so many times. It's like, restaurant. It's restaurant, restaurant, restaurant, restaurant, restaurant. It's restaura. R E, S, T. Rest, A U, rant, R a N, T. You know.

[Morgan]

Which one's hard for me? Colonel Which.

[Bobby Bones]

But there's multiple ways, like military Colonel. C O, L, O, N, A. That one.

[Morgan]

No, no.

[Bobby Bones]

C o, l, O. N I A L colonial, something like that.

[Eddie]

Okay what about embarrassing or immediately?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't even think. I don't think I'm right on that spell colonel C O L nel C O L O N E L oh the the lo.

[Morgan]

That's tough. Colonial colon.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah I'm not good at spelling though just generally speaking. Well could have fooled me because I spelled foreign. Yeah I convinced you I was a spelling. I'm not good at spelling.

[Amy]

I think what I do with foreign is I feel like the g is I do F O R G E I n or something and so yes cuz like the G silent.

[Bobby Bones]

Imagine never buying gas again. EVs are easy to charge as your phone and perfect for everyday life. Now, most Americans only drive about 40 miles a day and most EVs go 200 to 400 miles on full charge. That's plenty. 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. The way forward is electric. Learn [e-mail] not everybody can be good.
