Episode 50 – Lunchbox and Ray

And while we're doing it now is because we all happen to be at the studios, just us four here in the building right now. And so we're gonna do a Bobby Cast with Lunchbox who has to leave and how long? Like thirty minutes, thirty minutes, and then Rays can come back in, Like thirty minutes works out, So we'll do an hour here now, Lunchbox to be nervous. I'm really nervous. This is a nerve wracking. Being on the Bobby Cast is a big deal, not really really,

because there's a lot of people. Have you ever listened to one single Bobby Cast? I guess I have, which one you did, Yes, I did which episode. That's when we went around and talked about what we did before the show. So you've only ever listened to the one that you've been on. Yeah, so you really have no idea how I have no idea how this works at all. So basically we just talked in like like like humans, okay, Like you don't have to, you know, be the character

or whatever you are. I'm not a character. I am me every day of my life. So we just sit back and we're in our warm chairs, and we just talked about like the roots of the show, your life. We get deep. Sometimes people cry. I won't cry. Don't worry about that. So where do we start, Mike d Where do we start with the box we're doing? Start with lunch I was thinking that myself. Let's start from the very beginning, lunch box. Let's start with what you were doing before you came to the show. Oh man,

I was an awesome college student. I had just graduated. Did by that I mean I walked the stage, you know, in my cap and gowns. You you haven't graduated. That's a question too, I have Why do you always insist on saying you graduated? Because you haven't, and you know we're always going to correct you, right, But it sounds more intelligent when you say you graduated, because I have pictures of me walking across the stage in a cap and gown at at the University of Texas at San Antonio,

the whole ceremony and everything. I just don't have a diploma. But what I'm saying is you know that every time you say that you graduated, Amy or Eddie or me, we're gonna go you really didn't graduate. Well, I hope sometimes you're not gonna catch it, like you're just gonna go with it, And if I can slip it by you, then hey, you're not on your p's and queues and

that's good for me. So you quote graduated from ut s A. And I was working at Jason's Delhi as a delivery driver, and I had worked my way up all the way to the number two driver, which means that I got to do breakfast runs and lunch runs. So which one is bigger, first run or a lunch run? Uh, you get more lunch runs. But they only needed two drivers for the breakfast, so the top two got to come in early. That's just extra runs. Extra money. So it really wasn't about which one made the most. It

was just you got an extra shift period correct. You got there like an hour and a half before everybody else, so you got three or four extra runs, which is extra tips, extra hourly wage. So sometimes that's fifty bucks. Did you quit school to deliver? No? No, I worked while I was in school, and it was during the summer. It was just that was my job to pay for school, was being a delivery driver. That's how I made money to pay rent, to pay whatever bills I had. And

I quit because I got this job. And you quit school because of this job and Jason's Delly. You quit Jason Delly and this job right now, then you quit school and Jason's Delly to do this job. But so Lunchbox and I met at a bar and I was like, hey, come up to the show. And you came up to the show, and I guess you drove up San Antonio for the first time. That's right. I came up from Santonio, had to stay with my mom and dad. And then you're like, yeah, I just come and you're like, come

to the back window and we'll let you in. And so okay, I don't remember this, Okay, So I stood out there for twenty five minutes waving my arms. It's hard to see how the back window. I understand. I didn't know this at the time, but I'm waving my arms, no one seeing me, and I'm like, is this some kind of prank? Like I'm not coming in? Like I just sat out there waving my arms and finally, oh, and I don't know who came around and let me in,

but someone did probably meet. It was a one man show back then, well, yeah, and Jill, who was my very first co host, who was out also an intern. She may have even been in class at that point, because depending when it was, I may have had like when Lunchbox came on, it was a one man show. It's one and a half man show. Yeah, she was there, but she left at a certain times. I mean I was two, Joe was right, you were twenty one or two? Yeah, just during twenty two. So it was just like with

no money and nobody was getting paid. And I met Lunchbox and he drove up from San Antonio. Did you have to remember calling in, have to tell your work, hey, I'm sick or anything. I had to go and tell my boss Jason. I was like, hey, man, I boss Jason named Jason. Yeah, he was the catering manager. And he wasn't the Jason though, right, No, No, he wasn't need Jason Rose was the GM. And I was like, hey, I'm gonna need this day off. I got something going on. And so I come in and I do the show.

And my first day on the show, the first thing you ever had me do. Do you have any idea what it was? Well, first of all, you aren't paid. I wouldn't showed up. And I believe you arm wrestled rugby girls, right, well, yes, you had me talk trash to rugby girls wrestle. I let him win. And I can't really lose arm wrestling because I can't bend my arm that way. So one I start like, is there something else that I did? I don't remember that you did? Yeah, what we used to do? Traffic? Okay, what do you

mean traffic? Like you used to have traffic on the radio station, Like, oh, let's go to they still do that. We still do that. Well, we had some guy that did it in a different building, and you had always wondered what he looked like, and so You're like, we need you to go get a picture of this guy. Oh so our traffic guy worked in a different building.

I don't, man, this is old school. And so you sent me there there Merrow no crash Kelly something like, you know, some one of those names, and you said, you just go in the building and just start yelling, I need to see crush Kelly or whatever his name was. So I just watched in some building and there's a bunch of traffic people doing traffic on all these other radio stations, and I just yelling, I need a picture right now. I need you to come out here and

take a picture. And so he came out and took a picture, and that was my That was the first thing you ever did on the show. The first thing I ever did on the show. Man, I don't remember that said that, and you arm wrestled to be girls. They were strong, Yeah, they were really strong. M hmm. I'm trying to think back to those early days because I don't know how many days you came in before you get hired, do you know, was it a long time?

How many days then I hired you. Yeah, you're like, would you like to take I was like, yeah, you go, well, I'm not gonna be able to pay you but minimum wage. I said, all right, I'm in. And then you moved up from minimal way, I moved up from San Antonio back into my parents house, back into my old bedroom. Uh. And what did they think about that? Because here you are, at quote graduated college, You're gonna go be on a radio show, like you have no right they only think

about this. They probably thought it was a moron. They didn't I wasn't even a thing, Like I didn't even have a show. Really, it wasn't like you were coming into this show that was like successful, Like it was just nothing. It was nothing. I mean, they probably thought I was stupid for giving up college and moving back home for a job that was paying me minimum wage and the chance to be on the radio. But I mean they never said anything that I remember. They never

said no, don't do it. They're just like, oh, that's cool. And I had no idea what could happen. I was like, I'll do this for six months and then, so you never really thought I'd be a thing. I had no idea radio could be a thing like that. I had no idea because like growing up, I didn't listen. I didn't have a favorite radio station, like there was one. And when I was in college, I listened to him a couple of mornings a week when I drive to school.

But that was it. You didn't even know me or my show didn't know you didn't he lived in s Antonio. There wady even hear the show. Correct. So you moved back into your parents house and you move up and Jill, we only had a two microphones at the time. Yeah, I just sat in the corner with no microphone. We getting four a third microphone, staring at the wall until you would go out on the streets. Right, Do you remember the first stunt we ever had you do? Because

I do. I don't remember the first stunt. I mean I remember the first because we still do a lot of things in box called pain Day and this is we on our twenties, young twenties too, and it was so dumb. But I remember the first thing we ever had you do. Mm hmm. We wrapped you bubble wraps and threw you out of a moving band. The band once they're going super fast, it was actually going pretty slow,

but we took we bought all this bubble wrap. We rat lunchbox completely into the bubble wrap, like hardcore, Like I didn't know how you could breathe. And then as the van was rolling, we just kind of thrown out of the van. It was so dumb because you could have got run over, you could have broken something. But I had a helmet on too. Did you know you put a helmet on me? That was nice? Yeah. Yeah, we used to do some stupid stuff. You want to know.

One of the dumber ones I look back at. We took black cats, yeah yeah, and we just laid them straight up my stomach, on my chest and all I did was were like three shirts, no protection over my face anything, And I just turned my head to the side and I laid on the ground and we lit them. And I'm like, that was probably the dumbest. The time you watched Across Hot Coals, Well that was pretty dumb too, And not just across the hot coals. We put we

made our own hot coal bed. And then then we get in trouble, like yeah, just in the parking office because almost burned the building down. Like we were so dumb. And if everyone on the show lunchboxes for me the longest, we were so dumb. We used to take a baseball bat, remember the studio, and we would take like a wolf

a ball and we would play will something break? And we lunchbox toss the ball in the air in the studio and I would hit it as hard as I absolutely could, and you'd hear it go and then we look around after it was open landing good anything break all right back? After this? Oh no? Again, we would play is what is? Eat it off the ground? We'd find pills or whatever and just okay, spin the wheel and whoever landed on how to eat the pill? That's

really smart. That was crazy. That was fun because what we would do is we we I still have the wheel in my office people, there's if you ever seen like my snapchat in my office, there's just really old wheel. And we used to spin the wheel and it would land on whomever and they'd have to do something. And one of them was we found a pill on the ground, you'd have to eat the pill without knowing what it was. I mean, we were so stupid. We were so stupid,

and so we need the pill. And then once the pill would go down and we give it a bit, don't we google it and see what it was? By the because they are lettering on every pill and so we played eat that pill man. We play some stupid games, dumb games, dumb dumb, dumb, dumb games. But they were so fun. I mean that was back in the day when nobody cared what we did. We had no rules because we had no ratings, we had nothing. Yeah, you know another good one. We to do no listeners, so

nobody cared what naked runs. Yeah, run naked and he put a box around. But but this isn't back in the good old days. We can run down the straight naked. Nobody would care. I mean, I still think you could. Well, no, now you they you're on the website where your house has a little X on it, and they're like, don't go near the the whatever convict search or whatever it's called. So we we do all these crazy bits with lunchbox. Do you remember us getting you a microphone? No, I don't.

I just remember it. I do you know what? We saw it for another studio we went into we went into the country studio at the time and took their microphone and didn't say anything about it and just put it in our studio. And you just had a microphone, and we and they came back for We're like, nope, sorry, I can't get it back. Find it basically Finders Keepers squadroflaw and so lunchbox out of microphone and we went through.

Jill left because she wanted to go have babies, and she did and she did like she legitimately, although her husband wanted to beat you up. Oh he wants No. It was weird because we didn't him. We're friends, like we would go out and party together, we'd go to lunch together. And then just one day we got off the air and I had a text message from him saying, don't you ever talk to my girl like that. I will bleep bleep blee believe. And I thought he was joking.

I was like, ha ha. But then I listened to my voicemail and he left me a voicemail too, and I was like what in the world. And that night was our Christmas party and I went up to him, not trying to hey man, what up? He goes, don't shake my hand. I was like, oh, did you just like do something on the air, like yeah, I was

just being outrageous. Yeah, he didn't like that. I mean, he never had a problem with me until that day, he didn't like the way I talked to his girlfriend, which turned out to be his wife, and I remember that being really awkward. But that's that's not why she left. And she wasn't fired. She really just left because she was like, I want to go move to where he

doesn't have kids. So she laughed. And then Erica came in America yea, And it was brief, and she just felt her contract and then pieced out, and I don't know what happened to her. I don't know what that was so brief? Do you really not know? I have no idea. I really have no idea what happened to her. Like I'm not like she didn't hit me up on Facebook or anything like that. She doesn't send it, send it a happy birthday text. I don't know. Yeah, that was it. I don't even know her last name. I

just know she was hot and that's it. Yeah, she was really pretty. Yeah, So she came and went, and then Sarah came, Well you didn't like Sarah? No? I thought I loved Sarah. Why didn't you like Sarah? That was a no. That was at the end. It ended up being a little contentious. I didn't know I don't not that I don't like. I like her now like I I still talked like. I see her sometimes and she's great. But to work with that was the worst.

Oh my gosh. I would go after work at ten thirty in the morning and have Margarita's because I was so stressed out from working with her. And here's why, though, because your guys is related, I don't know. I don't know what this is why Sarah had First of all, she had done ray. This was the one time I brought in somebody that had already done radio somewhere. Yes, And it was the one time ever in my whole career. And we were friends because I was doing the night show.

She had worked with me, but she already worked other shows too, and so I don't have anybody. And we got along and I was like, hey, come in be the coast. And it didn't quite work out because she had a radio background and knew other ways to do a radio show, and we didn't always agree on how to do a radio show. For me, it was always just we're gonna just go by, not the seat of our pants, but I'm gonna know what we're gonna do. Nobody else is and we're just all gonna react organically.

And for her it wasn't about that she needed to know and it was just two different philosophies. She was very radio eyes and as a person I thought she would always actually wonderful. But we we butted heads at the end because I was like, we want to do this show where it's we're humans and lunch walks, and her would get into it and it was yeah, towards the end it was unpleasant, but she filled her contract and then she went to work in Dallas and then

she yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like, but it was just like each other. We didn't like each other. And let me ask you a serious question, though, you didn't like everybody at some point? Well, you agree that everybody every single person on the show. And Mike's laughing because he knows it's like you had a problem with every single person ever that's ever coming to the show. I disagree with that, okay, because did you not like I could think of everybody? Well, Amy didn't like me. But

you you wonder why because we met. I met Amy in Vegas and we were there and she talked to you the whole time. I didn't say one word to me. I think she because she ran you mean to her no this before she started working, and I was just like, what in the world, And I thought it was so weird, I think, and then you just thought she thought something of you, and she you thought something of her. And

then how we hung out in Vegas. She came to work, you know one day, and I looked and she goes, oh hey, and I was like, don't act like you know me, saying that was my first comment to her when I saw her out the green room. Ever, when she was a worker, don't act like you know me? Do you look back and go man, I was kind of rude. No, I thought it was being funny like I was. It's sarcastic, trying to break the ice, like trying to, you know, give her a ruffle of feathers

a little bit. Let's go through the people on the show was a history of having problems with people, at least for a bit. Um. Oh yeah, no comment, I have no comment, no comment, no comment. Um, I think you put it ahead through the Rays. Yeah, when Ray first came on, because it was like Ray was and I think this because Ray was a ball of fire and Ray starts. Ray take everybody's time on the air, and I think a little bit you probably felt like he was taking your time? Would you say that would

be honest? I don't think like I don't remember not liking Ray, Ray, Ray, Can you hear me in that room? Okay, can you hear me in the room. Did you ever feel like Lunchbox didn't like you when you were on the show. No, You're You're always good. That's one guy like. I feel like I've always got along with Ray. We were roommates. You guys didn't live together for a while

later on though. Yeah. But like I said, I really don't remember not liking I'd give you that one, although I do think a little bit when he was getting a lot of air time for being obnoxious, it kind of made you go a little bit. But okay, I'll give you that one. Uh Morgan, Oh yeah, Okay, that's true. That's all girls. Maybe it's all girls. It's just I don't like people that come in and think they are the bomb. But nobody thinks that. You just think they

think that the way you feel threatened. I think by girls they come in and think they are bomb dot that's my thing and I just tried to say, look, you're not as big as you think you are. That's all I say. To put them in their place. Yes, I try to put them in their place, and like, hey, you're gonna respect me, Like I feel like sometimes Morgan, we'll talk to me in a way that she would never talk to you or never talk to any more.

Not talking about this in the Bob cast, Morgan snaps at me and we have to go have talk, right, So I said, well, she does stuff differently to me than she would with other people. And I tell her, I say, look, I do not think he would talk to Bobby or Amy that way, so I don't need you to talk to me that way. And she defin talked me that way though I'm just in private, no, no, no, in front of Mike. I'm just telling you. Sometimes I had to let her know, hey, show a little respect,

respect your elders. I think he is. I think it's women women. You know, I have a problem with Eddie. Yeah, what was your problem with Eddie? Like I said, he came in and he I felt like he like I would ask him for help with something and he'd be like, no, I ain't got time for that. They think he was bomb dot com. But I don't know if he thought

he was bomb dot com. But I didn't feel like he thought he needed to help me, like if like in the very beginning when he first came on the show, and I would get so frustrated because I was like, I'm trying to do something and I need your help and you won't help me, and it's just like okay, like and so I would get frustrated with him. But we worked it out. We had to talk, and we're like, look,

he goes, no, my bad, it's just a miscommunication. Like I never worked with him, but you've never looks you And I've been here the longest, so everybody's new teath everybody. I never had a problem Mike. Mike was it. Mike never said a word that exactly, that's what you're like hot exactly. He come in hot, like people have to come in with a lot, they have to come out

on fire or they don't get on the air. Well, I don't mind him having fire, but hey, show some respect, show some love to me, like you feel like you're the godfather of this place, Like they have to respect youth. And I'm not saying it's an unfair thingcause you have Yes, I think they need to respect me because they I think a lot of them don't respect me. They think I'm just a joke, but they don't understand I've been

doing it and you've been the longest. Like I mean, they don't think even think you're a joke, though, well some of them do. And so just like I mean, like the person I said no comment about. I'll give an example, like when an artist would come in and she would take our picture for us, and I'd be like, hey, can you text that to me? She'd be like, you can just get it off the website. I'm like, well, you just texted Bobby the picture of him and the

person the artist. She goes, yeah, but that's Bobby. But what if people have a problem with do you because you have a problem with them? But my problem I started with a clean slate. That's what I'm saying. I just think you gotta come in and show a little respect to the gunfather that's been here. You want respect immediately because you've been here. The line absolutely, That's sort of like when you go into a job. You're not gonna just go in and yell at the cashier that's

been there for twenty five years. Do you feel like you're the boss of these people? No, not at all. But I feel like they think they're the boss of me. I don't think. I don't feel like they did. And I don't agree with that. I don't think anyone does, except for Morgan, right, and she kind of is now and she's kind of the boss of me now too. But I'm sorry, but I will never see Morgan as the boss of me. That's just that's just just the truth. If we're if we're doing truth. Because she's twenty four,

that doesn't matter. And I was right, but you were running the ship. You knew what you were doing. You were I did just think you don't let age get in the way of Hey, I'm not letting age. I'm letting like even experience. Oh you gotta have experience. No, no, no, experience is important. Like I'm just telling you. That's how it's I mean, she can work her way up until she proves it. So aggressive. No, not aggressive. It's just things that you have to prove to me that you

know what you're doing. That's it. We should talk about the incident where you went to jail, because I think in our career that was probably the biggest thing. Not a good thing, No, it's a weird thing that would never do again. But in the it worked out for us wonderfully. H Yeah. I mean, let's walk from the jail. And the story was that I said, Hey, go to the store. It's my fault because Life Box was doing

every crazy segment in the world. It's like, hey, go to the store and put pant heels on your head and buy gum and just buy gum and walk out. And I want to hear what the cashier does. Stupid stupid thing, and so you do. I do. I know how the stat we probably are right, it's gone. So what do you remember from that? I'll tell you I remember everything about it. I went to a gas station. I parked out at the gas pump, put the pantyhiles on my face. That way they would see me coming.

That way, they know I'm not harmful. Oh, you didn't put the pants in the store. No. Oh, I always thought you got in there and then put them on. I walked from the gas pump into the convenience store with the panty hiles on my face. I got a pack of green extra gum, because that's the gum I

used to chew all the time waited in line. There was like four people in front of me, and I just stood there on the live on the air and I I will never forget the lady in front of me constantly looking over her right shoulder, looking over her right shoulder shoulder, just wondering what I'm doing. And then I get up the cashier and I and he goes, that's it. I was like, that's it. Change, thank you, and I left. That was it. And so you're driving

back to the radio station. Driving back to the radio station, panty hose is off the head, you know. Of course I took it off. And I'm going one way and a cop passes me going the other way and whips of you and gets behind me, and all I think is, man, he's gonna pull me over because my car has an expired registration sticker. And we drive a mile and he never turns on his lights. I put on the left blinker to turn into the radio station. He puts on his left blink. Oh he didn't pull you over, And

I was like, okay. So I turned left into the parking lot. He turns left. I pulled into a parking spot and I look in my rear view mirror. He's gone, I'm like, off, Well, I was no big deal. Then I opened the car door and that's when it all went down. Get your hands where I can see them, Get your hands well, I can see him. Gun out. He's got your gunpoint, gunpoint, and I was like what I put my hand, goes turn away from me and

then walk backwards towards my voice. And I was like, all this for expired registration, Like I had no idea, and he goes, do you have any weapons in the car, and I was like weapons. I was like, I got golf clubs. Does that count as weapons? He goes, that's fine, and then then it hit me. That's when it hit me, like, oh, my goodness, is what he wants. This is what he's mad about. And then eight more cops come flying in

the parking lot and eight more cops. Cops. I remember walking out because they called me and they're like, get out, and I thought it was a joke. They were like get out, and they were like the whole parking was blocked off with car and our GM was on vacation and he had to come back in. We were suspended for weeks, and I should have been fired. I remember you telling me, as long as this doesn't blow up, we should be fine, except it blew up, blew up.

And I remember the decision was supposed to come down on a certain day. So you and I went and played miniature golf at peter Pan Golf and we didn't hear and you were We were all distressed out and

then the rest of history. Do you remember playing real golf with two old guys as me and you and two old guys, And these two old guys were like about those DJs rob the store and lets box, like oh, oh my god, like if eight year olds to know about this, And I remember like JB and Sandy and Deadly and Bob were like making fun of us, like

they're fired, they're fired, they're fired. And if those other stations in the papers one've been talking about us, we didn't never because after that we were number one for twelve years. We should have never made it through, but the fact that we did, that's what put us at number one, because everybody knew about us, and then we and I'm over for twelve years. Oh that was so bad and Lunchbox went to jail like he was in prison.

He called me and I had to call his parents and be like, um, lunch Boxes in the jail and they were waiting on cameras, waiting on you outside. And what they do. They took me out the bad door, told me to duck my head and keep going. And what's crazy is when they like it's on a TV show, like they say your name over the speaker and you go into this room. And I thought my dad was there to visit me in jail, but it was a

lawyer and I was like, oh cool. Because I didn't know how to get a lawyer, I had to hire the George Bush Attorneys. And that's that's lunch Box was. A year later, the terroristic threatening charges were dropped, but I got cuff stuff fingerprinted. It was and there's some real criminals in there. You don't realize how busy a jail is until you go to jail. Do you consider yourself to a servant hard time? Yeah, not a lot

of people can say they've been to jail. You went from the guy who would make out and hook out with checks all the time. You use radio to get girls all the time, all I mean all this time, it was easy. Every Friday Saturday night lunchbox to go out and I would see him just making he got to thirty bars and make out your girls and take some and you just take them home, whatever it was. And then he got he hit, he hit his fiance for us for months? Yeah, yeah, for months? Why because

it wasn't real. I wasn't ready because you weren't ready. Like, really, you weren't ready? Are you are ready for us to know? I wasn't ready. You weren't. You still weren't for sure. Even though you were engaged, you still weren't for sure. Oh, I see what you mean by like hiding the engagement, Like did you know you know not that you engage? Did you know that she was the one year for sure we're gonna marry? Or were you engaged going? I still wonder. No, No, I knew once you get engaged,

you better know. And then you didn't tell us though forever, and then you finally did. Ye, that's right. I mean I just was not ready to tell you guys, and then it all changed, and then it all changed that my life is over, No, not not over, and now we're just waiting nine kids now has to go. How much more time do you have? I got no time. Do you need to go? Probably anything you want to you want to stay here. Look, we've done half an hour. I know it's been great. Thank you for having me.

And these people are on the show. We're gonna listen back. And it's not that I don't respect them that it's just they are cool. We're all cool. But I think we're all equals. We don't need to act like each other's bosses that I think people are over people at certain duties, Like you don't tell them how to do their jobs as like, uh, you know you should do this on the air, right, No, I don't tell anybody how to do their job at all. Do you think you have the easiest job on the whole show? And

be honest, no, you don't know who does. Oh gosh, here we go again now in real life? Like who do you think? Who you really in real life? I think, honestly, well, I mean Mike he answers the phones and does a couple you know, newest guy Okay, And then I'll say nada, because I mean she puts a couple of things on the website. I just don't think you know what she does though, to be fair, I know you think that, but I just don't think you fully grasp all that

she does. Well, I mean fair to think that because you don't know, but I mean I did ask your opinion. I can post things on Twitter, not really because you've tried this, but I can post on Twitter just as well. Like I mean, you know what I mean, she does Twitter and Facebook? And can we fix this contentious relationship with you? Not? You think ever? Or is it just gonna be like this? I don't know, like I mean,

we say hi. I mean we're we're civil, but I mean, like I just like, for example, like with her, she's in charge of posting on social media. She built our whole new website. But yeah, I understand that if you ever read the post about me, she always slants them in the negative. Always. Would you say though that? And that's fine, Like I'm just Devil's advocating here because you wouldn't be here for thirteen years if I didn't think

you're awesome. But would you say though that? You press people's buttons all the time, all the time, all the time to wear it kind of it's like, oh, I probably wear on people. I wear on people, not even in a bad way, but I'm just sarcastic and I don't take anything serious and so I'm just I'm and I'm gonna and you always look for like the things to make fun up for people. Absolutely so if they make fun of you back, but I'm good with it. I love I don't I can take a ribbon. I

don't think he can take He can't take it. You don't take it back very well. I think you're wrong. Let's vote. Everybody thinks that lunchbox can't take it back, say I. I yeah, sometimes you can't, and I think you just it's all perception and we all have different perceptions. Like if you come at him with somebody, you'll combat you with something way bigger. And you you're the angriest, You're the You and Eddie are the happiest and you're all but you're also the angriest on the show. You're

the most polar emotion on the show. Okay, yeah, I go up and down, and you will be really pumped about something, but you get really mean too. Would you agree with that? Like sometimes you get and you're like, oh I wish I want to be so mean about that. I don't ever I'm not really worried about being mean though, But like sometimes you go personal means I don't think I ever go personal. You don't know, I think because if we if it's been discussed, then it's fair game.

I never take anything that we have not discussed openly and use it. Like I won't use something from your personal life that I know about that Yeah, okay, if it hadn't been discussed, if it's been on the air, it's fair game. You can use it. That's that's nothing. Mhm, okay, anything else, man, I'm just awesome. That's it. People that think that that you're like a joke, not a joke in a bad way, but like, okay, this guy is not this guy. Yeah, Like I get a lot of

calls like that that's real. Like what I don't understand what is not real? Like I watched a lot of reality TV. I I don't study George Washington facts. That's just not who I am. Like I don't know music like I'm supposed to. Okay, no one's supposed to be. I know what. People get mad at me because that's all I'm just saying, Like, yes, you can play the same song twice in row and I'm gonna guess two different artists, two different song titles. I just that's how

I am. But I'm good at math. And what did your wife think about your job? She thinks it's cool. She thinks it's neat. She thinks it's cool the parks I get. She thinks it's awesome that I'm famous, and I think she really enjoys it, and she thinks it's funny and very interesting. Does she tell you sometimes like, hey, let me give you some advice on how to handle people?

And what is her advice? She said, because I'll be ready to fire off an email who like whatever if I'm responding to an email like whatever, like Morgan or something not to me, And she'd be like, I think you've ever emailed me? Maybe, And it's like in our whole thirteen years, he may have me five times ever, And she said, no, no no, no, maybe you should word it this way. So she helps me word things better.

Do you feel the even aggressive time? Maybe because I'm blunt into the point, blunt to the point, and so I'm not so I don't know how to be as pc about it, Like I need to be better about that I need to be more thinking about their feel things like when I get a text message I think is a dumb text message, the group text that I'm not on, so I don't know what you guys talk about. I'll respond in a maybe a negative tone because I'm like,

that's a stupid question. When she says, maybe you should just do it a little different, that's and that's probably right. Is that text message threat? Ever? Do? Is it ever? Just go full Bobby Bash mode? Never? It doesn't. That's why I want to stay off of it, because I want to give you guys a place to go full Bobby Bash. Oh. I was kind of hoping that's where you guys vented all out and you just went full bash in the text mode. No, never go full Bobby

Bash mode. Huh, not surprising to me. Um, okay, well, hey, Raik, let's let's take a picture real quick. We're gonna let you just gotta go. They were did thirty six minutes. When you guys you want to say, why I get right here? If you don't like me, sorry about that. But I'm not everybody's cup of tea. But everybody has a different flavor ice cream they like. And the heat you know, hey, Ray, can you come never a second?

Some people like vanilla. I'm not vanilla. We're gonna take a picture so we can post it from Cookies and Cream or Rocky Road, whatever you want to call it. And for people that have a problem with you, they can, I mean kick rocks. But I appreciate them listening. You do probably have the most vulgroom mouth on the show though outside of the show. Yeah, I went up to lunchbox in another student. He was like f F. I was like, dude, what's wrong with you? And he was like,

we're talking sports. I get passionate. And when you're making a point, if you curse, that means you you mean it more. Hey, we have to do a Boby guest pictures. Let's all three stand together real quick and then right you're gonna have a now, all three of us, because you just gotta go. You gotta go to the event. We're gonna post this. Let's go up tonight. All right, all right, all right, Rainy have seen the hot seat? Oh man, all right, have a good have a good

evening later there there he is climb out. Yeah, were you listening to the other room or now? When you told me to turn it up. Yeah, but not you weren't nothing much box like no talking about people. The sea is low man, lunch boxes chair. Yeah yeah, so okay, right, tell us in your terms, like how you came to be a part of the show, Like what happened in your mind? Like how did you get here? Honestly? Can you hear me? All right? The sea is really low.

Chill dude, well just chilling. So this is about we're just learning. Um no, you guys all went to New York because Bobby was doing Regius or whatever. Oh yeah, that was dealing with Kelly Rapper, right. Elena threw a crap fit about what she had no backup so she couldn't go luxed to we should every woman that's coming lunchboxes hated. We've realized on the show probably so yeah, and we didn't realize that. Tell him he started listening to here, it makes sense, you know, all you have

a sudden you his name and just girl names. And he's like, he was like, yeah, I don't like her. Don't like her either, Mike, all right, I mean but Mike, he's all right, you didn't say okay, so okay, we we go to New York. Yeah, you guys went to New York. I didn't even really know you guys personally.

I knew the show obviously it was huge, but one of the people in upper management Canyon, they said, there's no backup producer, and you're pretty good at producing, why don't you learn how to do the Bobby Bones stuff? And I was like, all right, cool, I'll help her out. So I think that day I went up and introduce myself and she was like, all right, I'll start teaching

and stuff. I remember it a little differently. My recollection is I was going to do a Christmas sports show and I needed a producer to go on the sports station. And they were like, there's this guy that is here is then turning any names? A ray from Texas State. And I didn't know you, but I didn't want somebody that was already producing and you aren't a producer. But they were like, he knows how to work the buttons, and I was like, that's all I need. I'd read

it up. Somebody that doesn't know what they're doing then some of the things because they know what they're doing, and so I did. We worked together, right, didn't you produce that show? Yeah, because everybody's on vacation, so they're like, you should just fill in into it, and I was like, all right, So I went on antartender the Zone to the sports show. Ray produced it, and then that's how I remember us meeting and so honestly think those things

happened pretty close together. Yeah so then Ray, but you weren't but you never were legal, right ever, my internship ended with the Sports Department, and so you were never for us. You were never an intern and you were never paid no. So for how long did you work for the show and not get anything, no credit, no money or anything. A couple of years, right, year and a half year and a half and a half. And so what was your goal through that? There really was

no goal. I just ended my other job and I was like, what is it that I want to do? And I always had listened to radio show, so I was like, I kind of want to be in radio. So it's like I didn't like what I was doing. I was doing sales, and yeah it was television communication like internet phone. You're for Grande, right, Grande cable? You call an offer a cable packages? So great, I mean it was fine for the time being. But then you're every day you're like, dang, just like Mike d do

I want to answer another hundred calls today? Calls out of there? The answer is easy, hundred calls a day, way more than I did there. What if you had stayed there, though? What was the high? The high is a lot more money, Like because you're you're selling more cable back. If you're great at sales bonus on top of your normal money, you're making five thousand a month. So you started to just show up at the radio station. Yeah. So I just I was like, Okay, this internship ended.

What should I do? And I thought, well, what if I just stay and don't tell anybody my internship ended? Because my internship was fake? Anyways, all you do is go to the college, get the credit, and you get an F in the class, but you have it have an internship. I'd probably at at Austin Community College, I think I have like three f's. Probably I just don't

even go to the class. You just get you're able to get into a building for an internship, so you get the piece paper to get you in the building, but you never go report back about I probably have f's left and right I've probably been expelled from AWESO community. So you're interning, and I think about Ray when he was an intern of one. He looked up with all the other interns. Yeah, like if there was a girl and they were entering at the same time. Ray tried

and mostly successfully got with all of them. It would always start out and be like, Hey, let's go to cool, let's hang out, let's just hay and then we do dinner, and then we'd end up going on a date or something, and then you would we'd find out months later. Always and it would always work for the show too. They'd be like, I'd be like, dang, that's actually kind of funny to talk about on the show too. So Ray

was for this for a long time. You started to come on the air and people hated you more than anybody else ever in the history of the show. Would you agree with that? Yeah, I mean, I don't know really what I was doing different than Lunchbox. I mean, Lunchbox had way bigger personality, was more against certain things. But I mean, for some reason people hated me. I didn't get it really because I think you were just so cocky. He's so headstrong, and there was a difference

when you say Mike it was. It was also around the time like Jersey Shore was still big and he was part of Yeah, you very much were slick, never flied now, like I wouldn't even be polarizing now because nobody gets Jersey Shore. People be like, who's this tan guy? Was slick hair? What a weird People used to crush Ray on Facebook and I was more than anybody else, and I would be like, we have to keep Scout

in the air. I remember my boss the time, Ja was like, people are so mad that you put this Ray guy on the air, and I was like, yeah, but it's it's it's amazing because just to get reaction out of people like he doesn't do anything, it's offending anyone. People just generally don't like him. And you came on there and just told the truth and be like, yeah, I have to put three chicks. That's just what happens.

Like I'm Ray, you know, deal with it, and we'd be like great, honest to God, didn't know you were a real human, Like I thought it was an act for a year and it's still if you're acting, you've been doing it for a long time, not really acting. But the funny thing is with my friends, I didn't even really tell them about the Bobby Bones shown. They all knew the Bobby Bones show. That I'll just be driving in their cars and like, are you on the freaking Bobby Bone show? Like all my friends were blown

away cause I never told any of them. I was like, I'm not gonna say I'm on the show, and then I just have one segment and I've never heard of again. So then all of a sudden, they're like, wow, you're on that show for a year. Well you're moving to Nashville. And then they're like, that's your job. It was a it's a weird story about when we moved to Nashville, because again Red had been working for the show for

a couple of years. Some have two years for free, just showing up and was I mean, just you're working on as hard as anybody. I mean, you really were just been preparing this and cutting on ago and so I couldn't tell anyone that I was moving to Nashville. So I came to you and said, you're about I said to you, yeah, you tricked me. You said, I didn't trick you. I had to make it wasn't a trick, but I had to make sure that you were up for it. I said, you were just like, hey, there's

a show that it's a really good opportunity. You're gonna make some good money. It's in a different city. Um, would you want to go produce for him? But I can't tell you exactly the show. And I was like, all right, what is it. You're like, it's a country show? All right, man? We are my moving to And You're like, you're gonna move to Nashville. You're gonna be part of this great show. It'll be fun, man, good luck okay, And I'm like, all right, thank you so much. Man.

I was just like, you've been doing a great job. You've earned it. I think you need to actually go get a real job now. And would you feel comfortable doing a country show? And I was like, yeah, of course. And I was like, I'm gonna let them know that you're an option. But I couldn't tell him it was me because I was under uh like non disclosure to

say nothing. And so as we were getting all of our ducks in a row, like I can't even do Amy at this point, and Amy had to end up selling months before anybody else because she was trying to buy a house and I she couldn't buy a house. And I was moved two months later, so I had to go to Amy first and be like, hey, we're moving to Nashville, like, and I should add before lunch was in a hurry, but um, I was like you

you you need to move to Nashville. I'm not going if you don't go, I told Amy, but don't buy a house. And so she didn't. And then you didn't know until I brought you in the room right with everybody like one at a time, right, Well, I knew when you told me, obviously, and then in my head, like over the next couple of months, I would just guess who else was going because none of us talked about it. You couldn't. It was from Yeah, that's the thing. Nobody could talk about it. So I in my head

I guessed it. I think I pinpointed it. So, but do you remember when I told you it was me? Yeah? It was this show where were we in the room?

In what room? Main studio in the front, and I though were in the conference room and the conference room okay, and had all these nondisclosures and people would come in and sign them and then I would tell them, but the rule was they couldn't talk about it to anybody else because we couldn't let it get out because there were just other moving pieces and we were gonna be the first like big nashally syndicated show, and they were gonna take stations of rock and flip from the country.

It was just a whole thing. So we couldn't say an thing about it. And so with Ray, he came in and I was like, Hey, you have this job, but the show is us We're going. Was that that was a relief? Oh heck, yeah, yeah, that was awesome. I mean, at first that I was going to some random city, some random show. That would have been terrible. But then I was you know, it would have been terrible. It would have been terrible because I mean, I don't know if I necessarily always was just Mr. Radio. I

loved this show. I thought the show was awesome because it was completely different than any other show. I would never be part of a tool show just because you wouldn't know. I know, I was just gonna go do it and go work hard and probably move on after that. But then when you told me it was this show. I was like, there we go. I mean, this could be me for a long haul, you know, so we Mike Dude didn't move with it. Miked was was an intern. Would you ever intern together? You know? Right? Yeah, you

guys were really so. But you must have started away before him. Then Mike d started before me. I remember when you started this first week? Really? So what was Ray like as an intern? I mean you just said like, I don't know, it was always so random how he just said, I don't know, he was crazy and I didn't understand like what Ray was. I just didn't think it was an ax I thought. And he would come

in with these crazy ideas. He'd wanted to like film like a big brother thing, and we had INTERNI brother and do all these things. It's like, dude, is this guy for real? So whenever we moved off, when you've done interning recently training, we left, I started working. I was actually getting paid when you'll left, so you were like doing like a weekend stuff, overnight stuff. So when we left where you said I was. I remember when I got toldly you were leaving and I was like, WHOA,

this is gonna be weird? Was it weird for you because then I've talked about it a bunch of times, like I had one spot as as a producer, as your job, and Carlos was that spot, and then you took that spot. What were your thoughts on that? Did you know? I just thought it was business, No thoughts. Was just like NFL, you're getting traded, somebody's getting cut. That's life. That saw. I thought life always and I thought when we moved, you were going to get a

lot of criticism because you took the spot. But what happened was since Eddie's also Hispanic, they thought it just replaced Hispanic with Hispanic, and Eddie got all the hate. Like Eddie, Eddie's was a new position, and it basically came to over a year's time. Ray just outworked every other producer we had, and I just had to make the decision what was best for the team. And so

Carlo still had a job. We we left him a producing job in a spot in Austin, and we took Eddie with us and we posted our first group picked over on Facebook and it was all of us, and we got hammered because they were like, oh, they took one Mexican down and put another one up, and I was like, man, Ray dodged that bullet big time, and so are you happy here? Yeah? I couldn't be especially mean my girlfriend at first. I'll tell you the first year sucked. Man. Probably Freshie stuck for all. It's even

with Lunchbox this Weather. How was that living in lunch Box same as he is on I mean on the show he's dirty's filthy. We really didn't hate out that much in like in the living room and have talks. It was like we just we'd go to work here at the radio show, we'd go home. Maybe we'd do a Friday night out on the town. But it's not like we ever had downtime together. I just chill in my room. I had a TV. I had a fifty TV, A lazy boy. I chilled in my room for hours

just watch movies. I mean, I was single, didn't really know but anybody in the town. Tinder wasn't around when we first came here, So I'm I was just in my room, just chilling. Learned a lot about myself just hanging out. Yeah, I mean, it was just me. I had nobody else in the world. Families in Michigan, best friends are in Texas. The guy I'm living with is the dirtiest person I've ever I'm not gonna go chill in the couch. It was filthy. How how dirty was

it the floor? You always had to wear shoes or your socks would be dirty, or how wife do it? She cleans it. I mean it's now, it's definitely different when she's not with him. Do you feel like he's different? He's different. Yeah, he's cleaner. He'll hold back a little bit. He knows he can't be Mr. Extreme personality and opinion AI because she's like, you don't need to be that mean to somebody. So he's nicer. He's definitely nicer. I think it's a little nicer to like. Yeah, I feel

like it's softened him about Yeah. And it was before it was like let's go a bar hop and go as many bars we can. Now it's you want to go to dinner and maybe go to a bar. It's completely changed. It's a lot different now. But what about you, I don't feel like you've missed a beat. No, I feel like because your girlfriend also left the party. Yeah, it's what you guys have been common at this period in our life. Everybody parties. Every I followed a lot

of people's paths. They all party, party, party, than boom. When you're ready for family, you're ready for family, you're ready for kids, but you still alot and get so drunk that you get asked to leave bars. I know, I know, I've been kind of actually laying low for the past month. I was had a nose cold. It was like a sinus infant. I don't even know what the crap it was. But so yeah, I've been laying low and we'll do one get drunk a week. Rempare that to the rest of the world. We're pretty We're

where you know, we look like Mother Teresa. What time do you get here? On the show? Run me through your day? I get here, I mean I try to get It depends if I go to the gym first. Sometimes I go to the gym first to twelve thirty am, so twelve thirty am, or I come here, try and bang out an hour and a half of work. Then I go to the gym for it. Then allow allows me to go to the gym for longer hour, hour and a half, then come back here between then I

go to the game. Everything is so much slower because there's nobody else awake. I'm at the gas station sometimes for twenty minutes. I'm getting gas, I'm talking to the attendant, I'm getting food for the day. They have little TV's on at the gas pumps. Just watch the news. Nobody around you, three d That's how I get my big three. I'm watching the news on the gas pumps. So when we come in, because I wake up at three, but

you've been awake for a few hours. I wait, Um, when we come in, you've already been up and at him for a while. I've been I like doing that, and but but you're like full in the middle of the day by the time we come in. Absolutely. Yeah. I had a scare one time, and I would never want that scare. Against was like, you know what, why not change my entire day and go to sleep earlier? So I never scared myself. What time do you go to sleep? Um, between five and five thirty? So you

do and you can do that? Yeah, yeah, no problem, no nothing. My girl knows it's time to turn the TV downs. No, she says, for five hours after me. Sometimes when I'm going to work, she's going to bed because it's like third shift. We work, different shifts. What is your goal like with all of this, with this show, and just because here's and I'll tell you the question I asked right once. And I asked because I pulled in the office when Alana was going to New York.

I said, hey, like, what's your goal? And Ray says to me to be on Big Brother. And I was like, no, like what's your goal like career goal? And he was like, no, that's it. And so I asked you, like, where do you want to be in five years from right now? I would say with this job, I don't really have to make goals. You make the goals for us. I mean, you've changed the show. We don't need We can't really make goals. I couldn't be like every day I want Amy skinny ready at four am. I mean that's that's

that's like a terrible goal. Like it's you guys control the show. What about long term goals? Like because whenever I was trying to figure out who is going to take a lane of spot, I was wide open and I was like and went to you and I was like, hey, what's your goal? And you didn't say you want to run the show because you like your job. You're not gonna be a big brother, And I was like, no, no, no on the show and You're like, I just kind of like what I do now? So five years from

right now, what do you want to be doing? I would be totally contend doing the same thing I'm doing. The only things that would change house in the country, have a newer vehicle, have some kids, have a wife, so basically a little more money, and a family. And I'm almost content with the money that I make, but I would like other options in case this thing ever felt through. I just know there's a ceiling. I mean there's not There's not an audio producer in the country

making two d dollar. Let me get the heck out of here. You cut audio, like, so that's never a goal. This is fine. I always felt, though, and I said this publicly, that if there's anyone on this show at all that can do their own show with you, yeah, and you never really wanted to do it. I never really wanted to because I mean, I see your personality and I see how hard it is, and I'm like, that is one of the hardest things in the world to have a personality every day your life and hit

record and have that personality. I guess I realized it was a lot harder than I thought it was. What for you has been the best part of this job over the last amount of years that you've been here, Like you had to pick a highlight? Highlight is uh the competitions. If I was in any other job, I would not have been doing a banana eating competition, doing a thousand push ups, pumping my fist for seventeen hours never. I mean, those are things some people never do in

their lifetime, and I did them in a two year span. Yeah, Ray had a couple of world records, one for the fist pumping consecutively world record. Oh that's crazy. It was awesome. How long did you poppy fist? Seventeen hours? And he was like broken after the end of it, like he almost collapsed. It was crazy. That was crazy. And then how long did you do the two steps or the line dancing? That was twenty four hours? He did twenty four hours of line dancing and nobody else can do

because they don't have this platform. This platform motivates you and it's like, Okay, I gotta do it now. It's such an awesome opportunity and I definitely consider myself blessed. I mean, my brother is working in a lumber mill. He's not being broadcast all over the internet pumping his fist for seventeen hours. I was like, what an awesome opportunity. If I fail, like I'm a loser like it put in this spot, anybody couldn't succeed. Are you happy? Yes?

Is your girl happy? She's yeah, she's told me. She said, Hey, I'll move wherever you want to move. I'll do whatever you want to do. It's totally is she just happy if you're happy? Yeah, So it's not about where you are what. She just wants you to be happy. We're both happy. What what's the what was the low point in our relationship? No? No, in this show, like if you had to go man, that that part really sucked.

Just first moving here. It was so freaking hard. And we went from me, Mike, Carlos, Elena to me, and Elena was doing a lot of side stuff, so it was me. I mean, we had four audio producers down to one. I was like, what did I just sign myself up for? But I mean at the same time, I set myself up for success. I get up early, so it wasn't challenging, Yes, but I still set myself up to do a great job to go around the room.

I'll just give you somebody's name. Just tell me the first word do you think of like when it comes around to him, Amy, cute? Okay, just be honest, Morgan, Oh, don't choose. Just Mouthy's mouth. It doesn't matter. It's she's for sure mouth that. I and I think a lot of us are lunch box unique, not dirty unique. Do you think lunch Box has a weird perception of what people think about him and what people really think about him. No, I feel like he thinks everybody hates him, and I

don't think he hates him. Nobody hates him. No, but he was just here going every body hates me, nobody gives me respect. I don't know, I don't. He doesn't maybe have the best when he's trying to just explain something to somebody's still in a loud manner. He doesn't have tones. Yeah, he doesn't speak in any sort of tongues. He's always like you, always well, and he'll do that

with me and it whenever. Before I really really knew him, I thought he was kind of mad, and even till this day, he'll still be like if you but that's just how he talks. And I asked him, do you think you're aggressive without knowing? And he said no, but he just doesn't know it. Um, what about Eddie laugh? Man laugh, Mike d Smart, m h who else is on the show? Not a kiss as one? You can whatever, You can say whatever you want. You can say whatever you want. There there are no rules, so so but

you can. This is what I'm gonna say about you, the guys on this show and how they feel about the girls. Okay, I feel like anytime there's a girl that has a type of personality, you guys think they're Maudie or like you just said, they It's an unfair cultural thing that I think a lot of males see with females and they go, Okay, if they're type, they must be a real be. So you are being honest. But I do think that just generally, that's an unfair

thing to think about them. Because I'm Maudie and maybe that's what you say about me. I don't know, but I think I don't think Morgan's and malodies I am. But you say Maludi for her, So what about me? I'll say somebody says, Hey said, Bobby, what's the first word personality? But bo, but do I have a personality? Want to leave the show? But I mean everybody has a personality they can put on for so many hours of the day. You use it all up on the radio.

Nobody can do their personality all day long. I mean, I don't do what you do, and I'm worn out by the end of the day with my personality. I'm like, Sweetie, I don't feel like I'm personality right, Mike, anything you want to ask for a we I got him here because he's the most peculiar one of this like lunch boxes, the loudest and the has the most like just biggest personality. Amy is the nicest, like just the best human. Eddie is probably the most fun and easy going to be

around and all these things. I've negatives too, But Edie is the like and he's like, we're best friends, easy going, late all time. Uh, Edie's awesome. Mike D And you've seen Mike D change from when you manage might probably say a word to you. Did he back in the day. No, our relationships been the exact same. I'd say our humor was the same back there. You guys talked when he was found. Mikey never said a word to me. He did to me. I mean his personality is the same.

Everything is the exact same, except for he looks amazing and he's more he's definitely more confident. But everything else is the exact same. That's what's funny to me. He's still the exact same person to totally different. Never said a word to it. I think you're working for maybe five words. Maybe he never said anything. Now he talked to now. He won't be quiet, but we are we missing anybody. I don't think we are right, Um, anything or anything else you want to add, You're good, you

go to bed there. He is our audio producer. Ray, all right, Ray, you're you're a free to go, peace peace please. That held me. Uh, this is an hour long. This is our fiftieth episode. And instead of putting an artist on it, I wanted to put these guys on it and give him each at. I mean, lats gonna stay, but he had to go. He was fired up when he left. No, I'm just saying he sounds like he was getting into it. Man. He was loves those sessions when he can just go and there was nobody in

here with him. He loves that. The thing though, you know he does that with his wife. That's what I was asking. You know, he goes home and just rips everybody. But that's I mean, everybody has their let their hair down. I mean me and my chick. We'll tell stories, but you'll never believe this. You'll never believe this. Done that, But I mean you can tell when him and his girl talk, he's like, I can't believe it. Has it the most though, Yeah, like he has a lot of

pent out. He keeps it. Sometimes he snaps though, like real life snaps. We've seen it happen, like off the aar where he just remember when did he just left? It's like, dude, you're you're snapped a little too hard. You gotta go because I don't because it feels like he'll hit somebody. He's the only one on the show that I feel like. It starts to feel like he could get physical with someone, but he never would. He's not that tough. Don't get min he get beat up

on our show. If we had like top to bottom fighters men, who's the whimpiest, Let's go, let's go whimpy up I gotta go lunch because he's has the shoulder issue. We can't really swing a punch. I feel like it's uncoordinated. He's really uncoordinated. So lunch is the whimpiest all right, there's lunch box. Go ahead, Eddie up, Eddie about so Eddie's the next whimpy Okay, might Mike d Yeah, And then I guess so you think you take me. I was a wrestler. That's why I have the most confident.

I mean, I wrestled for eight years so high school though, like I played football, I don't count that though. Wrestling is just the next level. There's just such a thing with forever. I'm not saying I have that. You have that from birth. People ask me in the gym to like, how do you get those muscles? I'll be like, you go wrestle for eight years, dude, you're not gonna get it. Pump and Iron. You finally listen to the show. No,

they don't listen to any of it. They don't. The funniest thing is there'll be people that come from the city to our small town and then they know I'm on the show and they'll oh, my gosh, did you see this? My mom's like, I don't listen to the show, and she's like, these people look at me like I'm the craziest person ever, because not only do I not listen to the Bobby Boes Show, my son's on the Bobby Show and I don't listen to it. So do

they have? Because my mom never really knew what I did, Like she heard me as a nighttime DJ and Hot Springs, Arkansas, but she didn't really get it. She never got it. Even before she died, she never got it. Do your parents get it? My dad doesn't get it. My mom gets it, but she just chooses not to listen. But my sister, I think, let's since every day. And my brother just doesn't give a rip about it. And he's

your twin brother. Yeah, he doesn't care. He probably you could ask him the name of the show and he'd be like, I don't know what is it, Bobby Bones. I don't know what is it called, oh Bobby Bones show, Like he doesn't probably don't even know the name of it. He work at Lumberville Sawmill. What's lum Brand sauce? So what does he do it? Changed He used to grease the machines. He would take around oil and stuff to every machine in the building and make sure it was

running smoothly. But now I heard he just drives a chip heard you don't talk to him. No, through my mom, she's like, he drives a chip truck, and the chip truck fills up, and he sets a timer and he can take a thirty minute nap, and then the chip truck is full, and then he takes the chip truck over and dumps it into another rail car. And you don't talk to him though. No, we just know how many times a year when we see each other in person we're talking nonstoff, like, oh you're you're push We're

like punching on each other, wrestling and stuff. But on the phone maybe once or twice a year, like birthday, So you probably have three conversations you here with your brother. Yeah, he's so quiet. All he says is yes or no. He's not a phone guy. You have to see him in person. He's your twin. Yeah, he's also but you're you guys, aren't. Uh, we're fraternal. We're not identical. He's taller than me, he's bigger than me. We don't look

at all, like completely different body shapes. He wrestled like forty pounds heavier than me. I was at the lowest weight class. He was almost a heavyweight. Was the resentment from you to him getting bigger? Yeah, at first there was, and then in high school it didn't matter that he was bigger. I was getting more girls. So then he hated me. Why did you get more girls? I don't know. For some reason, the girls just like me in high school. Maybe it was because in Michigan there's a bunch of tools,

so they thought it was kind of funny. And I had a decent personality. I had no idea. I didn't know where a girl started to like me, and then maybe he got a little mad at that. M all right, I'll let you go back to doing whatever you're done and go to bed. Story over appreciate that. All right, there's reare. You can piece that, buddy, but you're out there. He is leaving the chair, all right. Episode fifty a lot.

It's a good fifty right, was good. Like we had an idea of what we wanted to do because we have Derk's and Jake and Luke lay we have some really big people coming up. But I just didn't want to make a fifty about an artist. I felt like we should make it about some of us, and people have been asking for that. Yeah, lunch box is just a weird cat, and I've none for thirteen years. Think it's so angry the weird thing to me about lunch boxes. And again you have to also understand, and I think

people do. If I didn't genuinely think it was a great person, I just wouldn't keep him around. Yeah, I don't know why he didn't see that. Anybody, anyone, you can't be in this group unless I think you're just one of us, Like you have to be one of us in some way. To my philosophy is that don't go get the best people. They do. Go get the best people and then teach them what to do or and mostly let them figure out how to do it. Because I don't say now people gonna go, okay, this,

take your hand to put it in here. It's like, okay, this is the group, this is what you're gonna do. Now. Findings you kind of find just spot like here here are all the little car bounce like make sure that you can get yourself into the in and out of the car abouts. He really just is angry it makes him who he is. But with Ray to Ray is like odd, but it's a beautiful odd like life. Box

is beautiful angry, and somehow it all just works. And there's sometimes we all blow up and we fight, but you don't stay together this long and this close and not fight. But in the end, we were lucky enough to be a show that wasn't put together by a corporation that somehow there are eight of us total, and everybody's so different, and that's that's it. And we're very grateful to be on the air and to be doing this still. And who knows, in a year from now

this show could be bigger. We could just not even be on the air. So that's a fifty episode fifty Bobby casts up and over and anything you want to add, Micha before we go, or ask or anything to me. I mean, I just think we hit a revelation there with Lunchbox in his relationship with women. Yeah, me too. I mean, I don't know why he's threatened by every woman, every single girl that's ever come in. He's that an issue with I mean everyone. We didn't bring up a lane.

He probably went off on her too. And he comes from a great mom and dad like it's a weird thing. It's a weird thing. All right, we're gonna go, Thank you for hanging with us, and we'll see uh next time. I think Ross Copperman and Luke Lair next week, two huge songwriters, and then Dirks and Jake, those four on the bill, right, all right, all right, we'll see you next time. Thanks, appreciate your listening.
