Ask Uncle Bobby

Bad advice for good people.

As heard on the B-Team Morning Show

Each weekday, some poor soul writes in for help. Uncle Bobby gives them the worst advice we can legally put on the air.

November 13 · Today's Letter

I do not want to sound greedy, but I expected money for the work we did. How angry am I allowed to be?

Swag Points Not Rent
Prize Counter Paycheck

And if you think it’s about joy, you’re adorable—this one’s about math, timing, and the ancient human urge to turn Tuesday into a story.
