Transmitting welcome to Thursday show morning.
It's Eddy's birthday to da half birthday. Hey, thank you man Ed, you have a chance to lose his birthday gift by gambling lose it, you could lose your birthday gift. Oh boy, yeah, that comes up. But first let's go around the room and check in with everybody. He says his parenting tips that he has we should apply. But he took his son sports cards and made him cry. It's pretty suready, everybody, let's go. Not my idea, not my idea.
But my wife wants to try something, and I think we're gonna do it.
No, not like that.
It's not like that. She wants to get a box like almost like a lock box, put it on our dinner table, and once or twice a day she wants to lock our phones up for like two hours.
You've talked about stuff like this, right, I think that's great. Did you ever do it?
Never know that I locked it up and talk about it.
My wife.
They caught these, they do. They sell them on Amazon. It's like a safe, like it looks like a food safe because I guess some people will walk up like chips and stuff.
Really, but you can put your cookies candy. Yeah, and it would only open if, like you know, the code or a timer. It's But the problem is as soon as I put it in and it's like only the timer lets it go, then I need to take a picture or something that is right. But it's for you and all the kids. Everyone.
I like it, per the kids, me, everyone. But I mean, I don't have a problem with my phone. So what I don't understand is if I don't have a problem, why do I have to lock my phone.
Up just to lead by example? Since you have a problem, who cares? But you lead by example? Your kids are like dad does it? Because they then they won't go with Dad's not doing it. That's true, that's true. I hope she does it let us.
Know, And I guess it should be easy for me since I'm not I don't have a problem.
But you can't do it all right, He's got a couple of screws loose and now online he's leaving negative reviews. It's leuch phone Amy. Happy blated birthday. By the way.
I know we celebrated earlier this week, But as I was saying around the other day, I had something pop in my head and I I mean it's not I'm not trying to be unkind kind right, Yeah, but my question is on your birthday, does your ex husband text you or call you and say happy birthday? That's a good question, like you text your friends, you text your family members, and I don't know where.
The line is. Great question, not unkind by the way.
Yeah, this was the first time in like seventeen years I haven't ye gotten a happy birthday from him.
And did you think about that?
I mean it crossed my mind because I think on his birthday I sent a text. But it's fine, Like I understand, like there were in different situations right now, So I don't know. I thought it was a little odd.
There's a lot of pausing here.
I can feel it because it's just to be honest, you know, the divorce happened a while ago, like last summer, but you expel operience a lot of firsts throughout, and so when you do, it sort of hits you and there's a like a moment to grieve that. But it doesn't mean that this wasn't the right thing for us and we're not both moving forward. It's just sort of like, oh, okay, we haven't experienced that part yet pause, let me grieve this part and then it'll get easier.
But I've had several.
Moments over the last you know whatever nine months where I'm like, why does.
This feel weird? They shouldn't feel weird. We've been to force who were planning the divorce. I should know.
But when you spend a long time with somebody, there's just things that you do sort of sting for a second and then you move on.
So it's dung a bit, a little bit.
But I don't I understand why he didn't want them back that. I don't think that means that, Oh.
I don't at all. I was just kind of making a joke. Yeah, well, I mean, I mean I don't think it.
Means that I liked Bucks is curious about this?
No, No, I literally I don't know why that kind No, it is something that I never had thought I would Yeah, why.
Would he think about it?
Okay?
But also here's a is he being kind by or is he being kind about by trying to think of extra things about people to bring it out to be like I was thinking about you.
Because I think when other people come into the mix and there's like dating, like I think that's where it just a lot can change. And I will say he was My kids were with him for spring break and they, you know, if they're not always on it with like birthdays and whatnot, but they were like, hey, we got you gifts when we were at the beach, which I know that was probably him being like, hey kids, let's go, oh cool, get your mom something. So I understand.
And also maybe what you miss is just having a consistent someone to rely on more than a romantic missing.
Yeah.
And then there's also just it's another reminder that what you thought was going to be your life isn't.
And so I think that's when those moments pop up too.
You're like, oh wow, this is hitting me because now I'm reminded that something I thought was forever is not and that that is okay, but let me process for a second.
Welchbok's pretty kind. Do you think about her though on her feelings? Oh? Yeah, thank you. Yeah, I didn't know we were going to get you think it's the opposite. Yeah, absolutely, I thought it was like him being super kind, like thinking about how could I I think let Amy know I was thinking about her.
If it's if that was the case, he would say that. In this case, he said, I'm curious. Did he say happy?
Curiosity isn't unkind?
Was he trying to spark an awkward emotion? Yes, well, I'm still going to go with kindness. I literally had no idea.
I'll think lunchbox for the opportunity to share that, because I know other people are probably going to experience similar things if they're going through a divorce, and I'm just able to give a heads up that, like, yeah, throughout the year. I feel like, once you get through a full calendar year, you kind of experienced a lot of different things. But you never know, stuff pops up and you just need to be with it.
So I thank you too for letting her lunchbox share that emotion. That's pretty kind of you. Thank you one step closer to driving that Lamborghini. Sure her daughter goes by a different name in school. We all got to admit the new name is pretty cool. It's Amy everybody.
Okay, So sitting next to an underperformer will decrease your productivity by thirty percent?
So are you thinking a lunchbox in the same way for this segment he was thinking of you. I got no comment, no what do you sit, Eddie? Well, no, you are also by each other, like Amy than Lesbos and.
Eddie whatever, I'm between you and Mike d I am productive?
Oh yeah, I mean I'm productive because my neighbor is I'm not productive, but.
I don't.
I mean Morgan's productive in his own way.
No, what does he do? He does? Nothing?
Like nothing, he does crossword puzzles. Is that productive?
Do you feel like he has the absolute easiest job on the show, the easiest job in the world because he does he gets paid to do what though, to just say whatever he wants to say? That's it?
Well, technically he can't say whatever he wants to do it.
Do you think there's this skill he can say whatever you want? Is there a skill? Has he had to develop a talent to do this? No, it's just him. No, he even says it, I'm just being me. How hard is that, Eddie?
Yeah, it's sort of like improv.
He's shown he can like off the Cuffee's so good.
You talked about each other. We started rating his timing was a little off there. Yeah, yeah, his timing is terrible. Ahead what I don't know, it's all about time and Edie.
Yeah, get it.
I get it, Lunchbox. He wants anything.
Man, you're not good at your job at all, you want say anything like that.
That's great if you think that Lunchbox is continuing to be kind and also not be unkind Right there, right, challenge for two weeks.
The more positive side of this is try to sit next to productive people because that will increase your productivity by fifteen percent.
But you're sitting next to someone who's not.
Yeah, imagine what if he did fifteen percent more Eddie? Like yeah, you feel like he's toxic to you.
What's crazy is I should be like he should rub off on me because Eddie is so busy all the time.
I mean he only does his work. Now, you could sit next to Bobby and one will rob off. Oh he's like that's it's nothing like a force field. Not positible. I mean you know what I'm saying.
No, no, no, I'm just saying Eddie does work all the time.
All he does his work. Rang A Buddy from Mount Pine, Arkansas. His comedic timing is the best. He always is better than the rest. Bobby Buma. You so a couple things. You'll see where it's going. I think you'll find this interesting gaming. So we go down to Tampa a couple of days ago and we shoot too much access with
a guy named Logan Ryan. I mentioned it yesterday. He won two super Bowls with the Patriots, went to Super Bowl the forty nine ers last year, right and so, and he has the super Bowl rings that we're wearing them, big awesome Patriots super Bowl rings. And I'm looking. I'm like, oh man, And there's a documentary about the Patriots where this ring that I was wearing, but it's not his, it's the owners. The owner goes to Russia and Putin stole his ring.
What do you mean stole it?
So Putin's like, oh, let me see it, and he puts it and then at the end, Putin puts in his pocket and walks walking. He never got the owner of the Patriots never got his ring back. Putin in front of everybody to show like how strong he was. He just stole it, put his ring in his pocket, and walked off. And it's in the documentary. And it got to be so weird and such a big story
that apparently the White House called the Patriots. Owner was like, you just need to say that was a gift and he's like, it wasn't for the piece of our relationship. He just stole it.
Oh my gosh, that's wild.
It's wild because he was just like, look what I can do? Oh this looks good, put in his coat pocket and walked off. That's crazy. Man. In Russia, what would you have done?
Would you have said, hey, putin.
I've knock gone to Russia? Yo? First of all, Secondly, no one else would be touching my ring. I don't know.
I've seen like World Series guys like at a bar just like passing that ring or not in Russia.
No, you're right, not in rusted, right in any other country, I no one's touching my ring. So but I thought that was an interesting thing. We had the ring that Putin stole his. Yeah, that same super Bowl wild. All right, that's it, thank you guys. Let's get started.
Let's open up the mailbag.
Fan game mail and we read it all the air.
Pick something we call Bobby's mail bag.
Yeah, hello, Bobby Bones. I'm a guy in my late twenties. I'm in an awesome relationship with an amazing woman. We've been together for a while now. Things are going well. However, there's something that's been weighing heavily on my mind. Despite my deep feelings for her, I've never been able to say those three little words. You know what they are? I love you. It's not that I don't feel it. I do very much so, but for some reason, I just can't seem to bring myself to say it out loud.
Feels like a big step. I try to show my love through my actions, but saying those three words is like lifting a cement truck off my body. The truth is, I've never said I love you to anyone before. It's not something that was common in my family growing up. I've always found it difficult to express my emotions in that way. I'm hoping you might have some advice or guidance for me. How can I find the courage to
express my love for her? Is there a way to show her how much she means without necessarily saying those three words? Signed deeply in more than like, get it more than like?
Yeah?
I can't say it. Well, it feels like this is me from a time machine. Yeah, this is my exact story. This is a pretty easy one for me too. In that again, same thing. Never said it growing up, never said it to anybody until my wife, but I would say people not just like people need to hear those words, very important words, and you kind of got to get over yourself. And it's a tough love because I had to do it myself. You kind of got to get
over yourself because this is all a you think. And if you do feel it, yes, it's extremely uncomfortable because you've never done it before, but you want to do it. You feel it. There's nothing about it that is wrong. Yeah, it should feel uncomfortable, but you gotta get over yourself. You gotta let the concrete, whatever the analogy you made, throw the concrete off your body, because once you do it is like ripping that band aid off or whatever
they then it's just so much easier. I used to practice on my dog before I said it to her. I would just talk to the dog. But then I did love my dog, That's what I'm saying. I loved Stanley my dog. I loved Dusty my dog, and I knew I'd never said it to anybody, but I did love those dogs, so I would say it so it didn't feel completely foreign that if one day it ever happened, it wouldn't be that I just wasn't saying it. I was.
I loved those dogs, and so I would be like, but yeah, I was weird to say it the first time because you're it's so vulnerable. There's a vulnerability issue here. I get it. You know. I don't have a dad. So it wasn't the masculinity thing that I was like, oh, I gotta be a man. No, it was a vulnerability thing. And this is extremely vulnerable. You've never said it, but you have to get over yourself, and if you mean it, you better say it because if you don't, you're gonna
lose it. How often do you say it?
Now?
All the time, all the time. And I still probably don't say it enough in my mind as much as I feel it, But I say it all the time, four or five, six, seven, ten times a day. Who knows.
Oh wow, iteah, because you saved all those I.
Can't y'all end every phone call with I love you mostly.
Unless he's mad at me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I.
Feelt that okay, and then I'm like, I love you. I do some real stupid stuff sometimes, though, guys. Yeah, So you get over yourself and just say it. The more you build it up to like the perfect moment. You need to say it too more. It's not gonna go very good and you're gonna keep waiting. Just go home today for dinner, lunch, whatever, and be like, hey, well that this great. Hey I made this dinner for you, or you made the dinner for me, or I love going out. Man, this is I love you. That's it.
Spit it out the end and suck it up, or you're gonna end up losing her. And no, you can't just do it with actions. You can also do it with actions, and you should also do it with actions. She can't do what about written I Again, you're looking for ways to get around it, and that's gonna feel like to her that you're looking for ways to get around it. So maybe you don't suck it up, Buttercup, thank you. That's tough. Luf. Yeah, I'm the opposite of that.
Like I say, I love you way too much to everything, Pizzai before I eat it.
I love you so good. I love you Pizza. We got your game mail and read on your air Now find the clothes Bobby failed. Yeah, so Bobby Bones show interview in case you didn't know, which I'm assuming maybe you do know because I do know Sarah Evans. So what's talking with Sarah? Which, by the way, she just got an invitation to become a member of the Grendal Opry. Is pretty cool. But before the interview started, because we recorded this in my house, it was our fault. I
don't want to say that for legal reasons. Back up, but well it's not. She sat in this chair that we have that we sit in and it dumped over.
The chair is perfectly fine, but if you sit on the perfectly fine, but it's old.
It's an anti chair, but it's an oiler chair. She fell, She fell backward and spilled her coffee everywhere, and it was just like, oh my gosh, here's that I know. Have I met you? Yeah?
Yeah, No, no, are you okay?
Oh my god? Oh no, first, are you injured?
Don't move her for next?
Broken? Oh no, no, that is, let's let insurance know. Don't got your next. She grab her neck. Everybody. Luckily, luckily our personalities, that dynamic worked because I didn't go, oh my god, are you okay, let's stop the interview. I should have. I honestly should have, but I didn't, and I made some jokes and then she made some jokes, and she kept saying she was gonna assume me like it would just so happen. We're both kind of messed up.
And we did the interview and it's been great. I mean, as soon as she comes back up in the chair, we had to talk about that fall. Is it? Is it that fair? Why not let me have it?
Amen? And she don't.
The thing is that she had dumped over. She duped over, but she saved her coffee somehow.
Yeah, And so I handled it all. I mean, you should have seen what my muscles were doing. It was just they were all working holding the coffee.
It was she wiped out and the coffee above her head still pointed in the direction of up, and it was like a whole new respect for Sarah. Like once she walked down, I was like, Sarah, good to see. I'm already know everything about you because usually I like prepared and I did, but as I was looking at the prepared notes, I was like, already know all this stuff. And then she said, oh, it's good. She fell backward,
and then I was like, oh God. But then I saw her holding the coffee above her head, and I was like, I'm so torn on what to feel right now.
I'm dying of embarrassment, honestly, because my legs were straight up in the air.
You have pants on, thank god, So that does.
I almost didn't wear pants, like nothing, Wow, I almost just wore this shirt the.
Pooh. You know when someone jumps in the lake and they hold their beer over their head. Oh, yeah, that's what it reminded me of, like some because of the false went out. But again she was holding it up until like half the coffee was saved priorities the coffee was sick.
And that I said, what came out of around She was like, oh my gosh, I worked so hard on this coffee.
And I was like, I feel that. I feel that.
Once we got the interview on track, you know, she was on Dancing with the Stars. She had to leave her like some controversy there, but we talked about our time on Dancing with the Stars. I was on I think six weeks. That was a long time. I was gonna win, you think, So.
We have inside information that says I was winning and it was gonna win.
Would it be for you? I could give you this gift. You can hold my mirror ball and act like you won. Wouldn't that be fine?
I don't even want to see it.
We opened that curtain right there, Mike, No, noo, my chair again, No no, just look just just like she says she didn't want to see it. It's right there.
That is beautiful.
Could have been it was. It was really hard. She then opened up because we got pretty deep. This is Sarah Evans. We got pretty deep talking about her relationship and her husband getting arrested. I kicked him out.
I just knew that we were going to a place that was very bad. And so we stayed separated off and on for two years. And then January seventeenth of twenty twenty one, right or twenty.
Two, he had arrested.
We were across the street at our neighbors having a bonfire and we were walking back home across the street, and so he was there. He shouldn't have been there. He knows that it was after one, A mean.
So nothing good happens after exactly right.
And so one of my children who was with me jumped out and started, you know, why are you here?
Because you know, she was.
Scared, and police came and we were like, it's fine, now he's gone, and I think we both knew that we were meant to be together and we should be together, but we both knew that there's a serious problem. And he started realizing, I've got a serious problem, and I'm going to lose everybody if i don't get this figured out, if I don't change.
The interview was so good, so in depth. She was so generous and vulnerable, and the whole We can't play the whole hour long version here, but it's on the Bobby Cast if you want to search it. But I do want to play her new song. And I'd asked her it's called Pride. I'd asked her why she wrote this song. Here you go.
I wrote Pride because I wanted to write a song that talked about my marriage, everything that I've been going through for the last four years. And I also wanted to write a song about the really scary time topic of abuse and addiction and what that can do to a family, and more importantly, what pride can do to a person into relationships.
So after we did the interview, you know, she had fallen at the very beginning of the interview. We got through it as a great interview, and she had texted me later on in the day and was like, Hey, my next still hurts. Who should I call for insurance? And I responded I sent her a picture of a very expensive chair that just looked like the one I had. I was like, who should I invoice for my chair?
Like?
She's funny. She has a podcast called Diving Deep with Sarah Evans, and I can just imagine like how Ray gets at times in like the most hilarious way too. You know, we talked about her marriage and where it is now because she did talk about abuse, and she talked about how her marriage now led to the center song for the album.
Right after the arrest. I sat there and I said, well, I want to write a song about pride, about because that's my husband's is you is? He's so prideful, he was raised to be prideful, and so I told him the whole story about the arrest. I was crying and we would start writing. So there's always a center song for me on every album, and like Born to Fly was a center song, says in the Bucket was a center song for that album. I knew that this was
the center song. So we've been in therapy for a year and a half and we've been back together, living together since November, and so we will be in therapy till we die. And it's a miraculous change. And obviously it doesn't Statistically that almost never happens, you know, it's very.
Rare to end up where we are now. Really enjoyed the time with her, and once I got on track is great, but it was really one of the more awkward early on experiences ever. I don't mind awkward, but I do feel bad for other people when they do mind awkward. And I could tell even Amy Ray if you play that clip and when she fell listen to Amy, oh my god, oh I was on yeah, yeah, my, oh my god, oh my god.
My hands are over my face and I'm just like, I think my hands stayed over my mouth for a solid minute because I couldn't believe it.
What were your thoughts when she dumped over in the chair and wiped out completely?
Well, so I sit in that chair sometimes, and that's why I'm like, it's a little sensitive. You just kind of have to know how to sit. And I immediately.
Filed Sarah case you're listening.
No, no, no, you have to know how to sit on the chair. Oh no, no, Sarah knows.
How to sit.
But I immediately felt I think, my oh my god in my hands in her mouth is like, oh shoot, I should have said something, but I just never could have anticipated that that would happen.
Crazy now that she didn't get hurt, hilarious, Oh yeah, yeah, hilarious. Sarah Evans, she has an album coming at June seventh. Her tour is happening now through the middle of September. We played her new song Pride, and just go over to Sarah Evans's website or social media. It's time for the good news produce already.
Randy Small's of South Carolina has a daughter in the seventh grade, and you found out that she was bullying somebody in school.
Oh, she wasn't getting bullied, No, she was the bully, and she was making fun of a kid because of the way they dressed and the way that she did her makeup. So what did the dad do.
I'm going to contact their parents and he got a hold of the of the victim and said, we're going to take you on a shopping spree and we're going to get your new makeup, and my daughter is going to come with us, and she's going to help you pick out clothes and pick out your makeup.
So they did.
They went to the mall, and the bully took the victim to the mall and bought her clothes, helped her with makeup, and that's how he taught her a lesson.
It's a really great dad. And I wonder about that, how that's going to affect every I couldn't have done that if I were the kid I got made fun of for all that stuff. But I was still like, I was prideful in fact that nobody had to help me or I didn't want help. There's no way I would have done that. I was a help. Yeah, I'd have been like, oh, now you want to pay for my stuff, and then you're gonna make fun of me again.
Well, well, the thing was it was it was the daughter's money. So the dad took heck, yeah let's go. Yeah, yeah, okay, okay, what most money is his daughter got? Well it's probably an allowance money.
So I try all of it plus some more of his Yeah, Like the lesson is there. I get a little like triggered by that. I get. You know, when I was a kid, we would go to yard sales and buy clothes. I went on the school kids will make fun of me. You're having their clothes on. They'd be like, oh, I used to have those shoes, I used to have that shirt, and I would never have let them take me to them all buying me stuff. But I guess if handled properly and healthfully, it's a
really great thing. And it sounds like that was the case. What a dad. That's pretty cool.
And both parents were involved too, so I mean that Hell, oh yeah, what a dad though.
That's that's a that's a great story. And hopefully the girl learned something. I don't think she'll ever do it again, honestly.
And then maybe they connected and that helps them, like they'll have a relationship at school, and maybe you'll keep her from getting bullied by other people.
Boy some nuances. Yeah that's crazy. Yeah, good story, that's what it's all about. That was telling me something good. Elder versus Millennial a trivia game of the generations.

But then he comes back and he like he knows all this stuff.
And I respect possum, but he knows a lot of stuff that he acts like he doesn't. Shouldn't even be one direction, one direction crushing it. You went again, I get it. Do you know how I know that stuff is because of this show?
I would never have known, Like.
Here a twilighter, we play mister brightside on this.
We circle back on Lunchbox grounding himself because I feel.
Like I was just being funny. I was just being funny. I was just what did I miss?
Oh?
You missed?
Him grounded his brain question.
He goes, oh you're grounded.
I didn't do that.
Yeah, And I said, who's ground He said, my brain is a copy.
Ungrounded you you did?
I mean I had it to get in.
A corner brain Lunchbox, congratulations, Lauren. Good job though, Lauren to get it A good job better? All right, thank you all, lunchbox, good job. On the phone. Right now we have Tyler. Tyler, welcome to the Bobby Bone Show. What's going on?
Good morning morning.
I was curious that you guys ever consider going to a concert by yourself.
I have, I have done that. It's never the plan to do that. And I think I struggled with that early. And I don't think I had some awakening where I was like, I am strong enough to do things by myself. I just think I don't have much friends, and so I would go for off. I want to go. I gotta go for myself. But then as I did things by myself, I realize what I had preferred to have somebody. Yeah, but I would prefer not to miss it more than the other way around. And yes, the answer is yes,
I've done a lot of stuff on myself. I just I just that's who I dated. From yourself.
Yeah, all that like date yourself, take yourself.
And I always consented to myself, so if I never had to worry about back end of the night. But yes I have, and I what I prefer to have a friend. Sure, but I had some really cool experience with music when I would go by myself. Would you go to a concert by yourself?
I would. I don't think I have, but I'm not against it.
Oh that's a fun experiment. We should don't have to go to a concert by ourself at some point, Okay, cool. But the problem is I might have to go to that cover that Leonard. You have to go to Leonard Skinnered show. No, I'm saying by myself. Want to go with me to that? I think that's the move. You do that and report back and then if you liked it, then maybe Amy or the rest of us can do something. Yeah, well I have four tickets, have you guys? You know
you should go by yourself. What happened with that was somebody called up and was like, hey, I worked for uh like it was a number that called Morgan.
Yeah, the Nationale Fire Department did.
And we thought maybe they were calling let her know she had a fire. So that's not how they operate. Apparently they just show them put it out. So she called them back on the ship and they were like, we wonder if you want to donate, but we were on and I was like, well, we can't say no, we're on the air, and so I felt bad. Morgan wasn't that place. So I said, here, I'll just donate the money. It was like one hundred and fifty bucks something,
yeah bucks, yeah, yeah, yeah. So we donated to their cause and they said, you get tickets to Leonard Skinnered, except I heard him say Leonard Skinner tribute. I heard Skinner. All lady heard was Leonard Skinner. Let's go. Blady goes get to Skinner tickets. So he has the tickets.
Yeah, and it's not Skinnered. It's Tuesday Gone a tribute to Leonard Skinnered. And when is that?
That's on May eleventh. Okay, so you will go to that by yourself? A great day. What day of the week is that?
He keeps pushing him over on my desk like he's trying to get rid of him.
Nobody goes to Eddie has a Saturday. Dude, come on Tuesdays ago they should do They should only do shows on Tuesday for sure. Yeah, Tyler, are you thinking about going to a show by yourself? And you're wondering this?
Yes, months ago, my one of my favorite artists released his tour d Eights, and so I asked my best friends we should go to this and they were like yeah, yeah, yeah. Nothing came up of it, and not a few weeks ago I learned that they're going for another friend bachelorette.
That's messed up.
It's like, wow, well, I'm going to a coach's conference in that same city on that same weekend, and I thought, thank you, I could still go to this culture.
I think early artists, like what show is it? Okay, i'll tell you what. I'll call Riley. Also get you meet and greets. You can go meet Riley if he's doing them, but you have to go by yourself. But if you want to go by yourself and you commit to going by yourself and Riley's doing a meet and greet, I will get you back to meet Riley.
Oh that would be awesome.
But you have to go by yourself.
Going by myself worth it.
Okay, let's get her information. I'll text Riley and we'll get her back to meet and greet.
And that's gonna be so awkward when Riley's like, hey, who you were here with by myself?
No, No, I don't think so, not at all. Value meet greets all the time and people are by themselves, and I.
Think it's easy to say, yeah, I'm in town for a work thing, and it's.
Not going to go really it's it's literally not it's not going to.
Be like so that's how you could answer it quickly, he.
Goes your say anything about it?
You're telling you true true.
Uh, Tyler, stay on the phone. I will get you set up. We'll find the data and stuff and then call us back after the show and let us know how it. Wait, can you do that? Oh?
I can definitely do that.
And then Eddie you updated is on Tuesday's agoing. Yeah, man, can't wait. May love it? Tyler, do you want to me? I'm good with a tribute vand okay, put on hold. We'll get that set up. Thank you, guys. Pile of stories.
Right, So if I find ants in my kitchen, I immediately freak out try to get rid of them. But some food scientists are saying, hey, wait, you may want to keep the ants crawling around, but not just to have them on your counter.
No, there's no wait.
They want you to add it to the food that you're cooking, because, yeah, research says that they have a very distinct flavor profile.
That can enhance a dish.
And they're also nutritious like they're high protein, fiber, they've got vitamins and minerals like iron, zinc, and magnet.
I'm sure. However, it feels gross to us because we've always been taught that ants are an annoying bug that only is around if there are unclean things. Now, I'm sure if our culture taught us we could eat ants and it would be beneficial. But it doesn't. It's hot, and so your food scientists don't know where you're from, where you went to school. I need we need to revoke that diploma.
When I was in college, we took I took it entomology, and we would eat. He would have this pot luck day and we'd have termite pizza and like ant brownies.
Well they were cooked. These are like raw. Well I think he's also saying cook them. I don't know. He just grab them into a handful of like some use them in dishes, lure them into your plate, do honey up until your plate. Again, it does feel weird and gross, but you have to understand we also pick and choo's what animals we eat, and some are gross and some are it's just the culture that we've grown up in. However, what if I fed you answer you didn't know it?
Like I was like Gus, we having a spaghetti dinner and you come over, you like, dan't spaghetti's good? And the next day I show pictures of me preparing it with ants that have been not that I like found in a healthy place, but like it's showed up.
Because that's so we've all consumed it at some point or another. Like I think there's a certain percentage that's like allowed to be like in peanut butter or something.
For example, when I worked at a restaurant, it's very damp, wet back there. I'll not use the M word, and it's it's food. It's warm, it's wet, it's food. And there are bugs. It's hard to keep them out, and so I'm sure some bugs gott into some soup, you know, Yeah, not that I know, ye, all right? What else?
So there's a pill. I feel like we get one of these every once in a while. That could totally replace working outs. Researchers are working on it. It's in a trial phase, but they say it could replace workouts as we know them. So if you're tired of sweating at the gym, I am.
Yeah every time. You know what, I don't need fault you to say anything. I'll take it. I don't need any tests. I'll take it. I think the problem would be like muscle density. I could understand it that boosts your metabolism or it I mean more so that because it's not like people that because people will take ozempic to lose weight because that is meant for people with diabetes. Therefore it curbs their appetite. Therefore they're thinner, which is what a lot of people want to achieve when they
exercise and work out. So I think probably if the pill works, it's that I don't think it makes you like workout. We have to define a workout means, not like Eddie who's ripped Yeah, yeah, thanks to yeah.
And you know, so far they've only tested it on mice, so I meant I'll.
Be that guy not quite ready for humans.
I grow a tail starts speaking.
But they did say that it wouldn't just replace working out altogether, Like to your point, Bobby, it would be like for the days that maybe you can't get to the gym or you don't, it'll help you keep the benefits of the days that you've done the squats and whatnot.
Yeah, there aren't a lot of benefits, although my pants do fit a lot tighter in my quads. Our group does say our group work because we've done a lot of legs for a year and a half, Like we really focus on.
Legs training team.
Way too much. Yeah, me, Eddie and Ben Rector we work out three times a week at least, and so but we do so much that we're not bragging. But our normal pants are our quads. They're tight. They're tight, and legs never grew on me like I would do. Like my calves are still that of a bird, but my quads are definitely tighter.
My wife mentions it all the time, like, oh, your legs is just like I've never seen them, like all.
The time, all the time. Oh my wife doesn't really, I mean I don't stir that.
But I've had skinny legs my entire life and she say, just now, like it's just unrecognizable.
So how does it feel, Eddie?
I mean I don't feel different.
Hey, well I saw this A six They did this whole poll and it said that like seventy five percent of adults think working out is a chore and they dread it.
I mean, I hate it.
If they were talking about.
How they pulled a bunch of kids and like intory five percent of kids are like, no, running around, riding bikes, playing.
That's mine, that's activity.
But when does it turn from fun? We were kids running around to being a.
Chore whenever we have to dedicate a specific time to it, so we feel like it's an obligation. Yeah there, and then we want to get the most out of it because we're an adult. We know that work puts in equals benefit gained.
But we should just start childlike your question. I get it.
But if we if it was like, hey, let's work out, Eddie, I got us to go six, let me go. Yeah, okay, what else? People even know what a pogo stick is? You try to think of like a super dated rep. We didn't eve have pogo sticks when I was a kid. Well you know what a pogo stick is? Yeah, it's where you stand on you jump. I don't know. They probably stop making those in the eighties, I guess because you probably die on one of those. No, we saw
a halftime shows, so they still do them. But I'm saying, like, just to buy one at Walmart. Remember pogo balls, Yes, you would stand on it. It was just a ball and you would stand on it. You can get a pogo stick, man, they're so old school. A pogo ball was like a ball and it had a round like look, think of Saturn the planet. Yeah, you jump up and down on it. I did have that with your ankles, like you could trot up.
That was fun.
Yeah I sucked at that. Oh if you did it now, you would break.
And what about roller skating in the garage?
That sounds like a workout to me. I don't my garage of crap in there? What else? Okay?
Well, backyard retreats are a thing apparently, and Costco wants to help every body out and they're selling these sheds. But the thing is they look pretty cute. So that's why it can be called a backyard.
Retreat like a man like a man, okay, a she shed? Yeah.
And so look, if you're wanting to add this to your backyard for maybe a workspace, a workout space, zen, whatever you want to use it, sports memorabilia. But they're pre made and they look really cool. I mean they're going to run you a couple of thousand dollars, but it's already prefabricated, ready to go. You just PLoP it down in your backyard. And Costco I went online. They have some super cute ones. I was like, well, it looks like you could even make it a little guest.
It does look really cool. Yeah, can I turn mine into a bar. Yeah, I've always wanted to do that. I'd be cool. You could do or or like a little dungeon for your big quads. But your wife, they're saying, you do whatever you want.
Okay, that's it.
Yeah, I mean that's my album.
That was Amy's Pile of Stories. It's time for the good news, munchbox, the lottery.
Everybody dreams of hitting the lottery, hitting it big, making all that money.
Well, there's a mom in Illinois.
She has a couple of kids, and she's like, you know, I'm gonna play my kid's birthdays. That's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna use numbers from their birthdays. And the other night, the baby woke up crying. She rocks the baby back to sleep, tucks the baby in. Then she's like, man, I can't sleep. Let me get on the lottery, Yap of Illinois. See what the numbers were for tonight, six, eight, sixteen, seventeen, and twenty.
I won one point four million dollars.
No words. She bore the baby up, screaming, that's crazy. You just look to check and you went over a million dollars. Oh my gosh.
And I'm sure, a lot of people do the birthday thing. A lot of people. Yeah, And I don't really. I'm trying to figure out, like so six eight six.
I wonder if she looks back and goes, you know, I'm so glad we induced Jonathan, Yeah, because it came out a day earlier, or or you know that eight eight or a million bucks.
Yeah, like maybe the baby birthday is six sixteen seventeen and then eight sixteen twenty day.
Oh just maybe the day, maybe she has five kids, just the day. I just I'm just trying to come up with steal her strategy. All right, there you go. That's what it's all about. That was telling me something good
