WED POST SHOW: Was Bobby Scammed by a Listener? Scuba Gets Called Out for Being a Liar and a Thief!

Published Dec 11, 2024, 6:30 PM

Bobby starts by trying to decipher a note he wrote to talk about. Bobby talks about the guy who claims he has both winning lottery tickets but lost one and is trying to prove it. We debate why the lottery can’t track it down in their system. We debate if this couple losing an engagement ring is a sign for them to not get married. Scientists have a VR lollipop that you can taste from your screen. Lunchbox calls out Scuba Steve for being a liar and a thief. We get to the bottom of it and settle their dispute. A listener also gives Bobby a warning about him getting scammed by listeners.

It's time for the Bobby Bones post show.

Here's your host, Bobby the Bone.

Thank you. I wrote a note, can't read it, but I'm gonna figure it out before the post show's over. It looks to me like it says scuba count down or go on count down. Don't know, like it's right here and it's I have really bad handwriting, but most that I can figure it out. I bet you Mike can maybe figured it out. But I write notes and I can't remember that. I want to talk about it on the post show because I wrote it next to the post show. But let's move on. We'll come back to it. I want to start with Lunchbox on this story. This person that won the one hundred and ninety seven million dollars in the jackpot and that's the one that was split in half. Remember that this is recent. So they win the money because it was like a billion dollar one, right.

I don't know the story.

Oh you don't know the story. Oh okay, So we talked about this maybe even yesterday or the day before on the show. This person wins all this money in the lottery and they hit the number, but they split with two, so they get one hundred and ninety seven million dollars. After all, the thing stuff's out, not bad, not about it all. The problem is they're upset and they're claiming they also had the other ticket, so they should get both halves. Where's the other ticket exactly? And I thought I had that page here because I know I read the story. So they only have one? I wonder do I read this this morning? So yeah, here you go. The guy who won half of the four hundred million dollar lottery jackpot is now suing California, claiming he's entitled or the other unclaimed to have too. He claims about both tickets but lost one, still wants full price. Can't they they'll look at a video though, I mean sure they should be able to and then track the time that number. You'll know more about lottery than I do when it comes to this. Can't they track the number when it was bought, where it was bought?

Yeah, I think they said it was bought at the game, both at the same place, same place.

So it's the guy for sure. I'm not saying he should get it, but if so, what are the odds that both two hundred million dollars lottery tickets are the same gas station. A man who won that is suing. He says he owns both. Last week we talked about the missing lottery ticket worth one hundred and nety seven million dollars. It expired this past Saturday. The winner hadn't come forward, so it is it's both. A year ago, two tickets were sold at a gas station at Casino, California that hit the three hundred and ninety five million dollar jackpot. Months went by, no one claimed the prize, and then finally one guy came forward with one of the tickets. He got half the prize. I understand now why he didn't go until way later, because he's looking for the.

Other freaking tickets of that other one.

Yeah, last week it sounded like the other ticket would go unclaimed, which is odd considering they were sold at the same random little gas station one day before the deadline. The winner with the first ticket issuing California, saying he had both tickets. He said he's used the same number for thirty years, which that makes me possibly believe if it's the same number, and it is that number and both were bought at the gas station. The guy hasn't given an interview, but here's also what I want to say. Even if all that's true, even if you can track it back, you can track the you can track the guy same number. If you lose the ticket, you lost a ticket. If you lose you don't get the money you lost a ticket.

I'm I think I'm kind of with you, unfortunately, because how are they going to have video from that gas station from over a year ago? Like, there's no way the gas station keeps all that film. Usually two weeks, you know what I mean, They probably delete it usually.

So how is he going to prove two weeks?

I did say that pretty matter of fact. I do know that usually it's about two weeks. Okay, Yeah, sometimes it's more. Most get most smaller places though, don't spend the money for the extra storage. Yeah.

Some of them don't even record it. It's just playing like it just has a camera. Like it makes you think they're recording it, and they're not. Like when I watched the first forty.

Eight, they're like, no, that's just a decoy.

Yeah, decoy. So how do you prove it?

Because if there's no video evidence, it's a he said, She said, unless the lottery can go in the machine and see they were purchased at the exact same time.

Even then, because I do believe with all the factors of if he's bought the same numbers every time, they were bought from the same gas station, this is a national lottery that he probably did. I'm not saying he is lying. I'm saying if he doesn't have the other ticket, I don't think you give him the money because anybody, let's say somebody wins in Austin. You live in Austin and you go to that gas station all the time, and you're like, not, I bought it at that gas station on this day. They have to go and track every single video down of everybody. Guess what they're gonna have to do here. Typically places can keep security footage up to thirty days, up to some go to ninety, some go for six months. If it's small like this one, usually they're not going to go more in two weeks.

How do lotteries not have like a logging system of like what numbers they sold, what time they sold? Why does it all depend on a ticket?

No, but they do know all of that. But why are they going to help give away money? Because that would be the right thing today it's not the right thing to do. The right thing to do is you have you bought the ticket and then you turn the ticket in to win.

But it's responsible.

It's so weird though, it's gonna send a little piece of paper and we're expected to like like a receipt, yes, yes, driver's license on you, like.

Some right you've been given. It's an elective like you.

It's like you get buying a ticket from it for a game. It's a paper ticket, and you're like, no, I lost it, and you show'll be like, no, trust me going to the database.

It's too much responsibility to hold on to a piece of paper.

Yeah, it's your chose to do it.

Yeah, it's like you used car insurance on a piece of paper and you had to keep that with you.

It's in my glove box.

But then you can go into court later and be like I did have it, even if you didn't have it. But I would say this is different because you don't have you have to have car insurance.

Right if you you can always prove that if you did use it.

You bought the lottery ticket and you and the rule as you take it back. Now, I think it's different if like dog get half of it. There's a code you can prove it, or there's a legal case between two people and there's the ticket exists, but you're fighting over that and who. There's a lot of things. But if that's the case, and nobody would ever have a ticket exactly, you would just go and pay twenty bucks and be like, put me in for these numbers and I'll check and see if I want.

That should be cool. No, you imagine people, that's not right. It's just right.

It's not not right, like.

It's a little dirty dog. If you have the technology to prove that he bought both tickets, pay the man.

It does create a precedent of you don't have to have your ticket. Then if this happens, the precedent is set. You don't have to have your ticket because we'll know when, where, and we'll have some sort of video.

Right, because that's a lot of winning video.

They don't want everybody that wins to keep their tickets. That money goes to schools and stuff. So the state's not going to help. I was just taking to help somebody do that.

Oh it's it's for the kids.

Yeah, education, we'll still have it already goes to it.

Even when you buy a ticket, a portion of the proceeds goes to the education.

But all of it does if you don't and I don't even know what that means education because I ain't seen anything.

I don't know what happens that one hundred ninety seven million. I have no idea. That is crazy.

I don't go into the education.

That would be awesome.

That's a field trip for every school. That's personal pamp pizzas for everybody on a Wednesday.

Oh yeah, okay.

Boom, there you go. The typically remains in the in the state could also unclaim money remains and also the state's lottery fund. So you mean the lottery fund could also go up with that old money.

Surely I don't think that is only just throw it into the next mega millions or whatever.

But but no, okay, here's the thing. State's different than some of these ones that are multi state as well. So state would be education. I don't know what the multi state where does that even go?

Let's check that out.

Like the national ones.

That's the Mega ball or whatever.

Does all the money bought in the state go to the state. Maybe even on those nationals? Oh maybe, Like if you buy it in Tennessee. All the money to the Mega millions bought in Tennessee goes in Tennessee. So here we go. If the owner does not come forward, all unclaim prize money, we'll go to the California public schools. In California the current So dude, it looks like it's different everywhere. Okay, but if a guy I don't have the ticket, you don't get the money.

So the lesson here is hold on to your ticket.

Right, The lesson here is that's yeah, that's the game.

Yeah, like when stores started saying, you know, I don't worry about it. You have your receipt, show me your credit card. Yeah, it's all good. Like when that happened, I was like, oh thank god, because I lost all my re seats.

Difference, stores won't repeat customers. They depend on you continuing to buy things there to generate revenue for them. You're right, So that okay, it's just it's not the right thing to do because you know the game.

Yeah, you know it.

When you buy in California, it goes to education. Arizona there's the Heritage Fund. I mean, there's all sorts of ones. So every state is different huh.

I always thought it was education. No matter where all the states I've lived in, it's in.

Education, like Idaho is public schools K through twelve and public buildings.

So it just depends.

That's public buildings, Oh.

Indiana build Indiana fund, teachers pension fund, and police and firefighters pension fund.

Oh that's cool.

Where's the Arkansas?

I go, Arkansas.

I'm telling you any education educational trust fund? Trust, yeah, I trust. I ain't putting it in the education. Well, it's always like us in Mississippi, at the bottom of every list.

Kansas.

They're dirty dogs, transfers back to the state without any sort of at all. M M. The FBI tells the House Committee they dont know who's operating those drones. We talked about.

They don't car sized drones on the main show today.

I was talking about these drones that are SUV sized, and the FBA FBI tells the House Committe they don't know wo's operating the drones. That's just all the story. You can just buy one of those sub size of drones. But also the FBI probably they didn't want you to know. They probably wouldn't tell you anyway. Are you guys watching The Agency on Paramount Plus. I just started the first episode. There's only three because it's it's like, what sucks is we got into it while it's populating.

I mean three episodes, yeah, oh yeah, And I.

Hate getting into a show when it's currently populating, giving you wait week to week. We would do that crap except for us, our whole life. But the Agency is out. It's really good. First episodes a little You're like, what's happening? It's like every first episode, but it's cia. It's got Michael Fastbender in it.

Well, Paramount Plus is kind of killing it right now. Okay, So because I'm back in with I'm trying to finish Yellowstone while I let land Man build up. Oh I'm caught up on land Man and.

Then now once that Yellowstone because it's so good.

Agency will build up. I just started season five because I started Landman, but then we had a we we talked about it and I was like, oh, yeah, I should go to Yellowstone.

Do that.

Let land Man build up.

Yellowstone kind of pisses me off because I didn't want it to be as good as it is again because I'm gonna be mad because this was the last season.

Well, all shows kind of I know what, this might be the last.

This might be the last season ever. Yeah, because they have not renewed and Costner's not back, and I am doing the podcast. It's by the way, people are like, why are you taking another podcast? I'm doing eight episodes. It's a it's an eight episode standalone podcast series for Yellowstone with the and stuff, and it'll be fun because watched the first three and a half seasons fully kind of checked out for a little bit because it was that I didn't keep up with it while I was populating. I have a bad have a tendency to forget about shows while they're we got a wait week to week. Then it was like, oh, got back on a little bit and they're like, do you want to do this? And then I caught up the last like five skeptos I hadn't seen, and now it's really good again and they're paying me so but it's also really good without them paying me. But I wouldn't have rushed to watch it. I don't think I would have let it all finish before I started back.

Well, I can say this, They're not paying me and I'm watching it.

So well, I'm saying I probably wouldn't have watched it till it was all the way done if.

They wouldn't pay me for Landman. That show's so good.

Yeah, I've heard it's really good.

I mean, I'm like, well, yeah, I'm enjoying Yellowstone but I'm eager to get back to land Man.

But I guess it's like, yell, it's gotten. It's like it's so like, uh, may caught up. No, I don't watch the one last night. I'm not even gonna spoil anything, but it's a.

Bit Yeah, you can't say anything.

New season, but I wouldn't have spoiled anything. It's it's different. It's a different kind of suspense. It's like it's like suspense, like unlike other seasons of Yellowstone Band. It's different kind of suspense, a bit of political suspense. If I may may, I you may thank you. Facebook marketplace shoppers are terrorized at gunpoint after teens lure victims with holiday gift items.

Oh that's terrible to do, and what do they do?

So they're like, we got these coming up and they rob you and they show up and stuff.

Oh my gosh, with guns.

No, no bananas. They beat you with bananas and then you sit there and take it.

It's hard out there on Facebook marketplace guys, when you're selling things. That's what you've got to think about every time you go to sell something.

Yeah, it's gun may be careful. Don't go by yourself, don't go dark places, don't go at night, don't go in their house.

But night now is like five o'clock, so that's true.

I left a sweet older couple in my house the other day.

Oh my gosh, numbers game guys.

Hey, they turned it out. I feel like you know their son, Bobby. They turned out to be the parents of a songwriter. I feel like you know him now. I can think the name Jimmy Robin.

Oh yeah, jim Yeah. I met his parents or were they his parents? We don't know exactly.

Why did Why were they at your house?

What did they buy him from me? What they buy from you?

An old Christmas tree I wasn't using because I got well, I used keating claws, and she came out with like a new one. That's yeah. I had been getting real ones, but she came out with she has her own mind now has a new one that looks so real, but it's fake. So I got that so I had a different fake one and they bought it.

You have an issue with dog, your dog and the tree, you know, because no like hitting it ornaments.

No the cat.

Oh cat though, yeah.

The cat, she's she'll be all then.

Gets a real tree. Yeah, well s she probably didn't care. It's real. It's a place for her to hide.

Yeah.

Our dogs don't cared all about it. We were worried about it. Ella, especially because she's very anxious, but she does not care. We have this big like I don't know what it's made of, metal, gold, angel type thing. I don't know how the tree. I mean. Stanley thinks that's his friend.

He hangs out with it.

He just sits by it.

Poor guy. No, he thinks that's his friend.

Why can it be He likes just hanging out by him.

He doesn't talk back or anything.

Pretty cool. An engagement photo shoot is interrupted by a ring falling into a sewer. Firefighters in Cleveland came to the rescue of a couple after an engagement photo disaster ended with a diamond ring and a sewer drain. They were having their engagement photos taken and somebody said, hey, do you have some one in the back of your pants and then somebody came in to wipe it off and wipe it. And then they wiped it and the ring flew off and gone down the sewer.

Sign.

Oh yeah, yeah, you guys look for signs.

I never thought that because I do not look for signs, but because you believe in signs.

I do believe in signs. But not every single thing is a sign.

I mean this sounds like a sign.

I mean you have to listen to your gut. I mean, who knows the you with signs?

That's what you have to interpret every sign everything.

I mean, if there's not not everything can be a sign. But if there's something that comes over you, when something happens, you should pay attention. Because that's what happened to me with the cardinal. I see cardinals alive, and not all of them speak to me.

In the mood.

Only when maybe you've asked, Like maybe.

Before that, if you didn't ask but you needed it.

One of them said Lord, like just no, no, no, you say, who knows?

Before that.

I'm not saying that this was a sign for this couple at all, But what if that morning she was like, I really don't know what's going to happen with this relationship, like, Lord, show me a sign, and.

Then I would argue. Once the cops got there and retreat the ring and found it, It's like, regardless of whatever happens, we're still going to work out in the end where somebody else could look at it as well. Your marriage is going to go in the super so you can do whatever you want.

That's where your gut comes in. That's what you have to listen to, like she used to listen to.

However she interprets it and maybe pricing either way anyway, and she just looks for confirmation. I think signs are confirmation.

You don't think the coincidence of we always say like, oh, it'll just throw it in the sewer is literally what happened.

But if they would have been standing over a sewer or near a sewer, what it never happened.

That's why the sign kicks in. Man, Okay, it was all too perfect.

You're not wrong, but you're definitely not right. Yes, you're not wrong, right, so thanks, I'm not you're definitely not right.

I am for myself. Right.

There you go, guys, she's wrong. Let's do a quick little mineral here. Ray, you got it. Scientists are developing a likable VR device for tasting foods on television. So what would happen is it's what if hey, COVID come on back. Yeah, we're gonna get sick, weird welcome back disease, but it is kind of cool. Scientists at this university have developed a VR lollipop that looks like but if there's like a cooking show and they make something, they can make it taste like that, and so you can.

Be like, okay, you can wash the lollipop.

Yeah, yeah, you can watch anything, but you can wash your hands. But people don't.

But like if it was a TV screen and you go up there and lick it, that would you never watched that?

Well, you would never go lick the screen. I wouldn't. That's a weird angle.

To have to the legs lick it.

But if you hold one interesting I don't know. The device, paired with the smell simulator can mimic flavors like cherry green tea very basic at this point, so I guess they're not gonna do great British baking show, but they can do fundamental flavors. So that's that's fun. All these diseases, but no, let's do a lickable screen. New theft scheme hits buyers of Apple laptops. Consumers who purchased Apple laptops in South California where greeted with the unpleasant surprise they got there for the pickup. The Los Angeles Times reports that some customers who'd placed their orders online showed up to the store to find scammers had already picked up the paid for computers using fake id's or QR codes. So it's one person specifically. It was like order the laptop said it was ready, so I went up to get it, and then when she goes to get it, they go, no, no, it's already been picked up. She says Apple wouldn't automatically refund her. Apple wouldn't tell her whether they'd asked the person who picked up the laptop for the ID, but she did say the person that had the correct QR code. So somehow they've gotten into something and they know your QR code. It could be a trojan in your email. I didn't who knows, but now they can get that. You got that, they use that, they go.

Get that nowhere safe, nowhere safe.

I need a sign that everything's safe outside a sign. I need a sign. A Christmas woman was excuse me? A Canadian woman was arrested for a tempting to smuggle drugs in a New Zealand by the guy dis guys in this Christmas presents don't beless. They don't wrap presents to take them through because they may want to open them. Yes, pretty bold. I'd go. I'd put my butthole before presents.

You'd put it? Why?

Why would you?

Why would you do That'll.

Open the present and find me. If I were smuggling drugs, I'd cram all my butthole.

No, dude, you seen that movie Maria Full of Grace. Bad stuff happens when you smuggle in your butt.

I think occasionally because if it busts in there, Oh yeah sure. But I'm saying for the most part, that happens a lot where people are using their bodies to smuggle. In most times it works fine. But if I had to smuggle, which I don't, I'm not doing presents. I'm doing butthole, okay, because they're going to open the presence. You do you. I've just been practicing just in case, and I don't want ever have to smuggle drugs in the case it ever happens. I want to be ready. Wise man once said, stay ready. Never got to get ready.

It's right.

Yes, lunchbox wants to say, Scuba.

What is shaking? I felt that Do you feel that our building shake?

It like a loud truck in the garage or something.

Caught on fire here? And that all the fire department had to be called for the building correct over the weekend radio?

Yeah, like Saturday night or something.

What did somebody? Did it catch fire at the bottom or did someone like send it down the shoot?

And what the story said is they had threw something away that was kind of on fire, and then it ended up being like a big fire, but they couldn't get to it. Wherever it landed, they couldn't get to it. So it took him a long time to tattoo.

Like someone in the commercial or residential.

I think residential?

Yeah, yeah, probably have you got it when you first moved here? Did you ever accidentally get up on the residential floors? Yes, me too.

No, my very first time. The residential security guard had to escort me on the elevator to get me to the right place because I was clearly lost.

What's it like up there?

You didn't even get it?

This is it really cool.

Elevator?

Yes, that's on the right beside each other though, And I only got in because somebody got ahead of me because I can't get in because I don't have the key to get in. And then I was like, I know I was doing. Walked in, doors opened, walked out the doors closed behind me, and I'm like, this does not look like what work is. Walked around for a little bit, and I was like, oh, I think people live here.

It looked like like a hotel hallway. Is that all it looks like, I guess.

But no, like a really nice yeah, really nice up there and get lost up there. Have you been in a good nice condo place?

No?

Never, Yes. When I moved here, I had a condo in Austin downtown. It was so it was like that. But then I bought a condo here for a while. You came to that a place in Nashville my condo there, Yeah, but that was really old.

Yeah that was like the yeah, really old but like coold.

Yeah, but it was kind of like that. Yeah, okay, but this is new.

But I just picture like a long hallway with a bunch of doors, just like a hotel the hotel floor. Hey, that's shake though. Do you think that could have been earthquake?

No, okay, nothing at the wall, dude, and not a sign of earthquake.

Things fall at the wall.

I didn't feel anything. You didn't feel that, And that's a sign that I should feel more. Oh man, I should really get in touch with myself.

Amy, you feel that.

I felt it when it happened. That's why I said. I thought it was a loud car or truck.

That's crazy. You didn't feel that. Bones you want to do? Scuba's a liar and a thief or now sure lunchbox here on.

Yeah.

So last year we did a gift giving competition on the show and it was the letter s and Scuba thought it'd be funny to blindfold me and bring this big old snake in the room. Ha haa so funny. But then he also said, Hey, don't worry, I'm gonna take you and your wife. We'll do a double date Bourbon steak. We're gonna take you out for a steak dinner. That just dawned on me the other day. He's never taken me to a steak dinner. Never the whole year's gone, and I have never been to a steak dinner at Bourbon Steak with Scuba's wife and my wife.

I don't remember. I remember the snake. I didn't remember that was the s bet though or the gift.

Scuba thoughts, Yeah, that was like his nice side of the gift. But on that car, I was trying to find a photo or if he had the cards still available. It's almost like a coupon on the bottom. I had an expiration date like a lottery ticket. You say, exactly like a lottery ticket, which's very familiar with. There's an expiration date, and an expiration date was within the first quarter by March, because I know he strings things along. I take forever to get to the point, and so kind of like me getting to this point. But I wo basically said you had to do by March, and he never said anything to me, so I didn't send anything to him and he missedire.

Empathetic, empathetic, So what's up? So what's what's the shakeout here?

That's what's up. You are not an expired March and he never hit me up. And you wrote it on there. I wrote it on there. Yeah, a hundred percent.

When when you are the person asked out on a date, you are waiting for them to tell you.

When the date is.

This was a date when he says, hey, I'm going to take you to a steak dinner, Okay, I didn't.

I didn't ask you as also part of the whole gift of getting back to you for the way you treated people on the show that last year. So that's why I got you the snake and I got you something nice. But you just had to do by a certain time period.

But I can't do it.

You're the one that has the money, and you have.

Tell me when you it's your gifts. Say hey, I want to go on Sunday. I'm like, all right, I'll clear the schedule. Let's go on.

I did it say on the must redeem by therefore he would know he needs to turn it into you to go I redeem.

Yes, there was there was. I don't remember the exact Vervirtil was on there, but there was a specific date. Then I can't I can't. I can't remember because it was a year ago.

Yeah, So Batchbox, how would you like this? I mean, I would like to go to my stake dinner to resolve itself. So you still want to go, you and your wife with Scuba and his wife, even though he's obviously doesn't want to go.

Obviously.

Yes, I mean I was promised to steak dinner for obviously like to have gone before March of March, but we didn't go, and then again to the rest of the year, and I'm busy and I'll have time for it, and I'm coaching my kids basketball team, all kinds of that stuff, so that that window of that first quarter was when we could have gone that.

Going by the way, what's that? That's pretty good?

I enjoy it.

Win.

Uh so this season winning? Are you winning?

This season? Not so well? Last season we were crushing it. It's a new newersh team, But I don't look at it as so much of the winning because they're they're kindergarten a first grade.

Says that loss, that's right now.

But my team, well, this is why I know we're better than most teams because when we play, they have more fun. We have more fun. But no, I've got five or six really good teams or players on my team. And when you play against other teams, it's always the coach's son that runs the ball the whole time and tires everyone out and no one else really gets to play. So my problem is we have nine kids on my team and only five or six will show up each weekend, So you sub them out with one kid, They're getting tired. By the end of the first half. First half, we crush it. It's like eight to zero, ten to zero, twelve to zero. And then you can't sub really one with five players six players, so they're six. They get tired, and they're done and they don't want to be there anymore, and they're crying because I have no one to sub in in the second half when everyone's all burned.

Sounds like karma. Question, is there any way you can make this up to Lunchbox in a lesser way, because obviously you both screwed up. I'm just gonna be the judge here. Lunchbox didn't redeem it. I do believe you wrote on it, but you can't remember exactly what you wrote, so therefore I can't fully enforce that he didn't turn it in in time. Is there any way you could like give him like a twenty five dollars get hearted Chipotle or something like that.

I could take it for steak bagels a McDonald's across the street.

He said, bourbon steak.

No, I hear you, but you said to redeem. But also I don't think he should be able to get away cleanly, right, Like I'm trying to find a compromise here.

We could have some salisbury steak.

I just send me and my wife and him and his wife don't have to go. It cuts the bill in half.

What about like a fifty dollars gift card just so lunchbox and go by himself.

I don't know what if I want to give him money, because I don't know what he's going to use it for. I'd rather have this experience with him. So again, we could do a couple of different things, just at a lesser level.

What if you just bring a couple of steaks from the grocery store and give it to him as a gift with a bow on it and cook him at home for his wife.

That's good. I could do that too.

Yeah, I would accept that raw steaks, raws steaks, Yeah yeah, good like good.

But his wife can though.

They cook I were grill, I would say, because he screwed up, and you screwed up. Two quality steaks.

Okay, I didn't screw up, but i'll for the sake of this then then I will. Well, if you can't remember, well, I remember it was March, so it doesn't matter what the date was. It was March, and we're way past March.

Saying you're lying, but you do not have proof, and you do remember what you said exactly, so I will say, if you can provide him with two quality steaks, we can close this case.

I also don't know if I even need proof because you just say no.

I'm just trying to like, yeah, yeah, sure, you guys don't hate each other because it hatem everybody. No, I didn't say you hated him.

It sounds like you guys don't like each other because you all don't want to go. You all don't want to eat together.

It sounds like Scuba's like avoiding it at all costs, right.

I just don't have the time for it. I really don't. I don't have time to do anything extra. March I did, Yeah, that was there. I was wide open back then. We had more people to help out and do some things, and things are easier.

Schedules, you know, clear, Do you let me know when your schedules.

I don't have you for this year as my gift. I've got Eddie.

No, he's saying to take him.

Okay, here's we're into a new gifting giving year where what.

I would say, now, you can do nothing because I really have already spent too much emotional energy on this. But so he's not always holding it and like every three months bringing it up as a bit because that's what that's what I have ever gotten my stake.

I have audio talking about life about this prep here's my way to talk about our steak.

Yes, you want to make out now, if you can just get him two good steaks from the store, I think that will be good enough and we can close the case.

I called Scuba's wife. Here's the order. Hit the clip right.

I went around the street asking people, do you recognize the steak?

It's a fifty fifty split.

What do we do?

Just get him mistakes? Okay, yeah, bourbon steak.

That's the only way I'll.

Grocery store. Okay, thank you. So he's a liar and the thief, well it doesn't matter, but I do think there was an expiration because he's he's funny like that, but he can't remember it. I think that you get something, he gets loses something the end, moving on to your God, don't want to even do this me pay for Lunchbot to go back to school guys or not. He wants me to go back to school. And I don't know if I just have the energy to do the bit right I have, but go ahead.

No, I mean it was weird.

We had a caller call in and she was like, oh, my daughter trying to take college classes.

And Bobby's like.

Here, I'll pay for it. Don't worry about it. Here's some money. I'll venmo you and you've venmoted, no problem.

I'm like, fuck, exactly how it happened.

But now I'm thinking, I mean thinking, like, if I decide to go back to school, Bobby, you're gonna pay for it.

Come on, man, help a guy out because it takes funds to go back to school.

Two things. One, I feel like more it's him being irritated that I was like, hey, this, let me give you the money. Fine. Two, I've offered in the past to do that, to pay for you to go back to school because you only have three hours left. Yeah, And I was like, I'll cover that. If you go do it and graduate, if that's what's holding you back. But you've said many times that's not what's holding you back. I'm just asking, man, But what are you asking?

So if I decide to go back to school in the.

Spring, you know, for three hours for I.

Mean maybe I take six, maybe I go above and beyond, And I'm just wanting to know if.

You'll pay for it.

No, but I'll send you a bourbon with Scuba and his wife see if he has time.

There's no c That's what I mean. Like, you'll do it for them callers, but you won't even do it for your inner circle. I mean, it's just it's weird.

You're I'm what finished up, It's just your your priorities are. Really do you think that maybe she needed it, Maybe she needed it and you would just like to have it and there's a difference. No, No, Okay, Well then I take that as a sign that he doesn't know.

Yeah.

I mean it's just weird to me that some lady just calls in on the phone, go, yeah, you're out pay for your college. You can't even ask for proof for the enrollment or like the class schedule, or like a report card.

Didn't You didn't ask for anything.

I mean, no idea where that six hundred dollars going.

Well, he's trusting the fact that I.

Don't trust everybody. I trust very very few people.

You don't even know her. Her name was Beth, and she just called. I mean, she could not even be really bad.

She wasn't calling for the money. She was calling for advice.

That's true.

I have no idea exactly, we don't even know, but.

I think Amy gray point, thank you because I did not know how to save myself here. But you're right, she was not asking for the money, And that to me are the kind of people that I don't mind helping if I know, like their intentions are, hey, would you might give me some advice on this? And I'm like, oh, I can help you with advice, but also like, I'm fine, so money, let me help you, like in real life people help me. Yeah, I don't mind that. Okay, here we go, I got I got buy me.

I need some advice.

Go ah.

I'm thinking about going back to school in the spring.

I agree you should do that, you get my degree, but the money just isn't there, and I just don't know where to get it. Do you know anywhere where I could find the money to pay for my schooling?

I do.

I think if you I worked with the company a little harder and like made some good relationships like Morgan gets to go do all this craziest stuff and get paid for it, like Vegas. And I think if you kind of, you know, use that time and nourished the environment, the professional environment, you'd make more money. You could do that. That's my advice to you.

That's weird because that lady called in and you can tell her, Hey, she should take extra shifts at her job.

You know what I mean. You just told her here's money. See, is what I'm saying.

Like, I can't give me a ray, give me voicemail too.

Genie from California, Hey, Bobby, I know you're a kind and generous man. I know you've helped mom before gets signed basebook cards, you help people get concert tickets. But I'm afraid if you start handing out hundreds of dollars to people, you're gonna start getting scammed. This woman needed six hundred dollars. I don't know does she have parents or anybody else say about I mean, the whole thing seems a little fishy, So be careful, careful man.

Was that an echo in my ear?

Well?

I played that because I mean for you. I knew I had that. I wanted to give you a little bit of support.

Some like America read my mind.

So you're concerned that Bobby's getting scamed lunchbox.

Yeah, Oh, you're being selfless about I'm looking out for you, man. I think that's the case. I appreciate.

I don't want to turn on the five o'clock news like Bobby bones scammed again.

I mean, you're gonna turn into Amy.

Do you turn on the five o'clock news more like six? You do watch the news sometimes? Wow?

You do?

Good for you?

Yeah, And I'm gonna tell you what the news is.

Sad. He sucks. I don't watch it on TV, but I'm watching on my phone. It all sucks. But they need to be They need to be sensational, meaning the story had be sensational, good or bouty to be able to click or so. Death stealing scams may affect people. Here's the thing. Let's say I help out five people and I get scammed once out of the five when I give money. I'm okay with that because I've been able to help four, and I'm okay. I'm not getting hurt so bad from that. Fifth. It's like the death penalty. Don't love it. I think there are times for it, but I would rather somebody who did it not be put to death but stay in jail, then somebody who didn't do it get put to death. And I think that alone affects my opinion of the death penalty. People that didn't do it, even if it's a very few of them that didn't do it, then getting killed, to me, that weighs more than the opposite side.

Yeah.

Am I being communicated in a proper way?

Yeah?

Yes, so I'm okay with that. I know what my heart is. And if I get scammed, I get scammed, and people that are scamm probably need money to But I'm also not saying help them out. I'm just saying, yeah, whatever, All right, let's do I think that's all the voicemail? Is that all the voicemails?

Right?

Yep?

All right? If there's anything Number three, James, do I do?

James?

Yeah, I can't play that, go ahead, I can't play it now, but play it anyway, Bobby.

I do have a raging idiot request helpout some Elf on the Shelf and I love Bob bum Sam.

I truly do have me out of a body.

Hi, thank you. Obviously, can't play Elf on the Shelf here. Elf on the Shelf is Eddie and has massive Christmas hit.

It's huge, huge overseas too.

We did a song for Christmas called Elf on the Shelf and you can search for it where we get your music and listen to it. But I can't play it on the podcast obviously, but thank you for calling and asking. I figured out what do you know what it is? Mike? I thought it was what you said, what Scuba countdown?

Gone?

No scuba huh countdown?

Oh?

And now forgot again. Oh I know what it is. I know what it is. I wrote down in the note Scuba countdown game. So that's what That's why I wrote this and we fixed it. But we do a national countdown, so I do the country top thirty and Amy helps me out. We every weekend across stations all over America. At the countdown shows on it's like, here's number seven and he's one of those countdown shows.

It's ea.

It takes us a while to record it, but it's not hard labor for us, just time. So we have like you know, ten twelve, thirteen pages of stuff that we record. They piece it together changes every week so they can never use anything twice. All great, but it takes us about three days to do it because we do it in blocks during the three days. And there have been some changes to the people that have been writing the countdown and Scuba's now doing it. Scoob is doing a fine job and he's smart about it. He does it and he uses AI a little bit, but we'll work it through the kings because it's this. He's doing it in a smart way to save a little bit of time, but we still understand what he's doing. We have a game we just play on the show all the time called what year was it? And in this game called what year was? And we used to play it, I mean fifteen years ago. We played every day for like two years.

It was like a yeah some times when I hear the thing because we used to sing it.

Yeah, would you you have the song that what he was? A song? If you don't, they don't worry about it, but old schoolers will know ITEP, go ahead, we hear what year?

What hear?

Was it like.

It?

So we play this and we'd give three things and you guess what year it was. And a little fun game, little filler, not even a filler, but a quick game to get everybody to a place at a certain time so we could do other stuff. I would say the corny is that now everybody loves the corny. But it doesn't take that long. And we said the cornies at this time, and boom, you get your corny, get to a song. We do the mail bag after just a boom. What year was it? That was kind of in the same spot. So we do it on the countdown and Screwba is new to putting it together, but he was doing like dark ones. It would be like and I had to say, like, I heard this assassinated? Did you hear what I was saying? I was nineteen sixteen, not even nineteen six.

I know what he saw, Yeah he was.

It's like, what it's like, what's so fun? JFK was assassinated, Trenobyl kills hundreds of people, Malaria destroys Africa, and I'm like, Scuba dude picked like fun things that people like.

Vietnam War.

It's a serious year though.

The sixties were tough, but in a year, no, it was it'd be other stuff. Every one of them. There was almost like Tianum and Square nineteen eighty and you're like, bro, there's a countdown, keep it light. And so today was the first one where I read all three and I was like, oh, thank god, that's fair for cod actually fun. Yeah, Matthew Perry overdoses Scooba, like we don't need that as a year. Was it like that's something to talk about ago that sucked? Oh yeah, it happened in that year, but but you don't lead it with a theme song.

I don't think I ever remember that theme song.

So now when you hear that, you.

Know it's like everybody, everybody have fun. Everybody have fun, everybody have fun aids and you're like, what eighty exactly see way Casey Casem freaked out? Now Yeah, yeah, why do I do a slow tempo? I'm doing up tempo about a GD dog dying is what he said or whatever it was. Uh, yes, but Scuba today was a good one.

Thank you. I appreciate it.

And I'm always doing those really early in the morning, and I'm not quite I'm not a morning person.

I hate morning, which is ironic.

I hate mornings. I've always hated mornings. It's I'm not a morning person at all, and so like it takes me a while to be comfortable in my skin to where like I feel good, like I'm not a little too edgy with like jokes, I'm not too child. You just got to get to my spot. And then I'm not in that spot when I'm reading those and it's like nine to eleven, and I'm like, dude, well first of all, but it's all good. Now we're good Scuba on a good pace.

Yeah, we are, thank you.

Hey, that Chernobyl show is good though, huh.

It was the best woe we've had.

No, the show, the show that taught us about.

It was on HBO at the time. I think it want awards, but that situation, dude, that was awful. Thank you? What all write down? Mhmm, okay, I think that's it. Everybody, feel good, feel good?

Feel good?

Amy, any any anything you want to talk about before we go?

This is a trick question.

No, I didn't know if you had anything you want to talk about.

No, I have something to show you later in your office.

Or away from something like well, I got.

Something that you sent me that I'm ordering and I got it in the mail and I'm like, well, I don't know that it's I think it's real. I just it doesn't look authentic. It doesn't look like what the name that I thought we got.

But don't say don't say anything else, because I don't want you to boil anything. That's fine, that is, that's interesting.

So I have it in my bag.

I'm nervous for you, but I bet it's Wait, why would you be why do want to I don't want to let you led you astray?

Well, I mean it wouldn't be your fault.

Yeah, if it leads you astray or led you astray, I would have led her astray if I did in the past.

Doesn't want to meet me straight, Yeah, it doesn't want to ever.

I say those, those the sayings all the time, but I don't even know what they mean.

And right and I'll do it and that like you're leading them. But again, we don't say astray, but we yes, like.

I've never said astray on.

I know what it means, but I don't think i'd ever use it.

You just said I say these things and I don't know what they mean.

But we know, like most of the time, I really don't know what they mean.

Oh, I guess I thought you mean you didn't know what the root was, because you would know what leads you astray.

Means like that you didn't even know how to spell astray, you.

Know, probably, And again I can't bet my life on it. And again I would just imagine it's a S T R A Y. But I don't know. It sounds like that, and I know what it means. But I never use that word a stray and any other context ever except for that one cliche. But I have about like a thing with Mike that's felt right, Yeah, you got it right. I have a thing with Mike where we have a code of like I don't know if I can say that I'll say something. And it started with probably me saying I would get jypped, and Mike's can't say that anymore, and he's not saying it like he's offended it, and he goes if you don't want to deal with the repercussions, or if you don't understand why this could be hurtful to people. Also, like in like five years, you don't know what people are gonna say about it. So it's not him being any sort of moral like, oh, we shouldn't do that. He's going oh, based on him knowing me. You may not like this could be what the what's sayings too, you know, and there are certain sayings and I don't know this is the case. But like I'm like, I gave him the Irish goodbye. I'm not sure but even what that means. But who knows if that meant like it was a racial thing that the Irish people killed people of different skin color. I don't know. There's the best situation in the Morning Show with Spirit animal Spirit Oh yeah, in trouble for that, Yeah, because that was a Native American.

So like sandbagging, I don't know what that means. So I don't even say it. I really don't even know. But you need to use.

It, no, you but you know you know what I mean.

Piling.

No, it means you're playing slower and worse than you actually are. You're deceiving people by being lesser, so they believe you're lesser so you can do more. But the root of it don't know.

Yeah, I guess you're just say it different because I picture a bunch of sandbags like you're storing up and like, people don't know you've got all these sandbags, and then when something comes, you're ready.

You see what I'm saying.

But that's not really the term she in her mind. But if if I'm like, hey, dude, he's sandbagging you. Yeah, yeah, like.

He's better than you, yes, and he's letting you.

Here at the local pool hall and you and you're missing shots and peoplere like, man, you're not very good. I'll play you for one hundred dollars and then you make every shot you were sandbagging.

Yeah, that person a sandbagger, yees.

Could be in business and sports. Sandbagging is the active and intensionally underestimating results to gain an advantage. Yeah, so Amy's I think here's this when hurricanes come.

I'll be honest with you.

I think that's's on the news. I don't know, it's very literal.

Every time y'all have said it. That's just I picture things in my mind, and I picture a bunch of sand bags ready in waiting for when that you need to bust them out.

You just prove my point, Like we don't know what it.

Still means the same thing. I just picture it differently in my mind, yes, I would know what you're saying.

If.

Yes, if someone saying sandbagging, I know exactly what that means.

How you described as all the same yours is like you you're again the dam broke and all of a sudden you're fixing it.

But the damn breaking is when you get a challenge and then you're like, oh, I'm.

Ready, I don't know what you're talking.

I'm not.

You can have your own version, but that's the same version.

I'm ready. My sandbags are stored away and you have no idea but that.

But when you're standbagging, you're not storing them away.

Yeah you are. You're not revealing how much, how much idea.

You can have it. I literally, here's something, here's something I do more of. Yes, I don't care as much anymore.

Yeah, I don't really.

There's some things I just don't want to have an opinion on anymore. Ice And for this show, sometimes if I have a mitterror above opinion, I'll have a.

Big opinion, like this really doesn't matter.

Because it's compelling, and I'm like, if I have a pretty pretty solid opinion, I'll just commit to being big because it's not who cares. If it's just lukewarm, it's not entertaining. But in life I don't anymore. I'll just be like I have no opinion on that, even though I can be semi educated and still no opinion. I don't know, and I think it's free. It's freed me up a lot.

It's good. Yeah, yeah, I'm done. I'm with you. I don't give a crap about anything.

But that's a different thing. That's it. But you like don't want to work or anything either.

No, no, no, I work.

No.

But I'm saying you just don't give a craft sometimes like a general on.

Well, like I know the important things in life, and ninety percent of it not important.

If you could retire.

Tomorrow, oh I would retire. You quit down, you have nothing, But I wouldn't like not do anything. I would find something about what you think, probably a build an orphanage, you know, for the kids, find kidneys along with you, and put sand bags all over come in it's a hurricane anyway.

Point was, sometimes I will say phrases and not know what they mean because we've always said them, and they end up being when you root them actually offensive. Back then may not be offensive now, but times turn man and all of a sudden something you said forever ago that wasn't freaking woke. Police are like, you said this, but at the time it wasn't bad. I didn't know that, and he didn't know any better.

I know, I know now we would say or and sometimes still do, just because it's how we was always the master bedroom and now it is the primary room.

Oh I still say master bedroom.

Well, oh, you're not supposed to be master.

But I thought I thought that was debunked about it all being slavery. I thought it was debunked about I don't know, because I remember when that was the thing, and they were like, don't call it the master bedroom because it was bad. But there were houses that didn't have slaves that had master bedrooms and then the north.

But they call it the master bedroom because of the.

And I'm sure you can find a story that says that about but what I had found because it's the same thing. I was like, But there were houses that had they were not in the Sleigh States at all, they still had the master bedroom because you could be the master of your domain, the master without being the master of actual human slaves.

I guess it's just like one of those like better safe.

Oh, I guess I haven't adopted that one. I still say master bedroom, but I.

Still sometimes i'll say it. I haven't.

Because we're so used counterculture that.

I mean, it's just one that could get.

Yeah, I'll stop saying that. I will start today. I will.

I just remember looking it up and it being like that wasn't consistent with all over the country.

But I think it was.

More of an industry decision just to go away from it. Just it could have connections, but I don't think they fully proved it. Right, so could fully proven guys.

You know me, I thought you like it was so because aliens, aliens impact you later.

That's gotta be tough for realtors.

Huh say primary Now, that's true. That's how they're trained now. Or like when my sister and her husband were on HGTV, they were that was a rule, Like nobody said, you said, primary room, primary room, primary room, primary bathroom.

I can understand our television network making them do that.

Be safe.

Yeah, because it's a it's a company, it's a corporation. Uh yeah, anyway, all right, We're done anything.

Else, just kidding.

So back to the thing I ordered.

Yeah, I like how to give me a minute? Okay, I like it.

Oh I got I got something real quick?

Oh ahead, no real quick. I'm in no hurry taking piece.

I got a text message that could be a scam.

I just need to run it by go ahead.

It's AT and T. This notification is to inform you that a request to move and it has my number. What's got my last four digits? The other ones are XD out to a new device or a new SIM card we just received and it's about to occur. If you did not initiate this request, please call us at this number or visit your local retail store.

I need more information. I need to see it because I get those. If I add a new device like to my Apple, they'll send me and go the numbers added a new FaceTime. Let Morgan see it. Hey, Papa'll let Morgan see it real quick.

That's scary, man, I gotta call my to me.

It feels real as of right now, but I would need to see it and see the link. It is that a number that those last four digits is that it?

Yeah, that's a number that's his You're my number.

That's what makes me feel like there's some validity to a date my number. Did anybody buy a new phone in your family or get a new line added?

It did come from like a six five digit number, which tends to be legit.

But what about the phone number they list there to CA Yeah, let me look at that. But anything crazy?

Have you do all this just to make so dumb? It's so dumb and like my parents used to call me to like ask me about this stuff, and now I'm asking you guys.

But the scam could also The scam could also be this. I'm not say it's a scam. More game me your results first.

Yeah, that's that's AT and t's customer service number.

The scam could be somebody opening up a phone line and that is really eighteen, but somebody is actually still like taking your identity or have your phone account. They're opening account and then you'll be paying for it.

One of my kids buying a phone right now, Well that wouldn't.

Be a scam. That would be they're in trouble. But that felt real. I think with all the stuff we found out, that's real. But I would definitely call and check because what the scam could be if somebody has opened an account in your name.

Well, yeah, that's what I thought when I first read it.

I would definitely call them like, hey, dude, right now, right now on the air. No, like you're you're already too late. It's over, Okay, thank you guys. Let's it. We'll see you to tomorrow, all right, buy ready,
