Bobby Bones was born in Hot Springs, Arkansas on April 2, 1980, but currently lives in Austin, Texas.
Bobby's first job in radio was at the age of 18 on the college radio station KSH 91.1 The Switch at Henderson State University. With only a week of experience at The Switch, Bobby landed a job in Hot Springs, Arkansas with KLAZ 105.9 as part-time air talent. During his four-year stint at KLAZ, Bobby was responsible for turning ten college students into professional broadcasters (most of whom worked at KLAZ with Bobby's recommendation).
After graduating from Henderson State University in the summer of 2002, Bobby was hired by a Little Rock station, KQAR - Q100, to host The Bobby Bones Night Show. Bobby garnered tons of national attention on his show in Little Rock with a stunt where Bobby snuck into a competing station's building to take over their radio waves for over 15 minutes. The act generated buzz nation-wide and also landed Bobby in legal trouble. Even with legal issues on his resume, Bobby was promoted within the company and was offered syndication for The Bobby Bones Night Show in Austin, San Antonio, New Orleans, Meridian and Oklahoma City. This market gave Bobby a 3-million listener market nightly.
In July 2003, Bobby was offered to move his show to the west coast for an even larger radio market. Through several contract negotiations throughout the years, Bobby has remained in Austin where he hosts the Bobby Bones Show on 96.7 KISS FM, and is syndicated in various other markets throughout the country.
Bobby's first TV gig was a short stint on the Bozo Show at age 6. Bobby has been featured on Ryan Seacrest's show, On Air with Ryan Seacrest, on E! for an interview done with Matthew McConaughey. Bobby recently expanded his on-screen career playing an emcee, Gordy, at an event in the movie Bandslam, starring Alyson Michalka, Gaelan Connell, Scott Porter and Vanessa Hudgens, releaseed on August 14, 2009. Bobby hosted two shows on METV, Airwaves and The Almost Late Show with Bobby Bones.
Bobby's dog Dusty is named after the program director (Dusty Black) who put the show back on the air after the show was taken off-air due to a prank from a regular bit called "Lunchwalking." The prank went wrong when Lunchbox went into a gas station to buy a pack of gum with a pair of pantyhose over his head. They were put back on the air two weeks after the incident.
In October 2008, Bobby ran a rumor on the internet that he was dating Vanessa Hudgens. Bobby told his listeners to perform a Google search of "Bobby Bones Vanessa Hudgens" to see if he could get a rumor started. After seeing a steady increase in ratings in the Google Trends, he told his listeners to search "Bobby Bones Vanessa Hudgens vacation photos" and "Bobby Bones Vanessa Hudgens on the beach". On October 14, 2008, it was the number two search topic on Google.
Bobby Bones was selected to co-host Live with Regis and Kelly on January 26th in place of vacationing Regis Philbin. Bobby and his close friend Andy Roddick co-hosted a sports radio show on Fox Sports Radio on August 6, 2011. They have both expressed interest in having their own sports show. Currently, they both are in discussions to get their own show. Lunchbox's (shortened on air to "LB" or "Lunch") hometown is Austin, Texas. LB has not revealed the true story behind his nickname, but LB insists that when he was a child, he was caught shoplifting a superhero lunchbox. Ever since he was caught, family and friends have referred to him as Lunchbox. He grew up in Austin and became a member of the LWC (Little White Criminals). There, he obtained the alias "Jason Gibble". LB attended the University of Texas at San Antonio however he dropped out with only having a mere three credit hours left to complete his bachelor's degree. LB was an intern for two country stations in Austin, Texas. Bobby met LB at a bar in Austin and thought that LB would be perfect for his radio show. LB was arrested on August 9, 2004 for a bit gone wrong. He was arrested after walking into a convenience store in south Austin with a stocking mask over his head to purchase gum. The clerk at the store saw LB and pressed the silent alarm. LB was charged with making a terroristic threat, and the show was taken off the air for two weeks. . Bobby and Lunchbox were suspended from the air for two weeks after the incident. Lunchbox has appeared in the popular NBC TV show Friday Night Lights. It appeared that LB had a speaking part, but it was quickly learned that the producers chose to replace his voice with a voice-over actor's. Lunchbox claims to "hook up" with many women; his co-host believe he exaggerates or fabricates these "hook-up' stories. Lunchbox expresses a stereotypical view of woman and marriage, and displays a dislike for overweight people. He is the liberal member of the team, in opposition to Amy's conservative viewpoints. When LB is not working, he volunteers his time with the local Meals on Wheels program. He used to be made fun of for his "five dollar" haircut,until starting a bet in 2009 in which he would have to let his hair grow out all year. Lunchbox is now made fun of for his "Beiber" haircut named after the popular singer Justin Bieber. LB has regular bits on the show including The "Bonehead" Story of the Day (where LB finds local news stories of criminals or simply town locals doing foolish things to get caught/in trouble), "Lunchwalking" (similar to Jay Leno's "Jaywalking" bit) and "Guess Your Weight" (where LB guesses women's weights over the phone on the radio).
