You know, if I could ever just get through the newspaper one time without the kids interrupting. It was a miracle. They always wanted to go somewhere and do something. Well, of course, they're all grown up now and Esther's dead. I just wish they'd call. Just every now and then, just pick up the phone and say, hi, Granddad, how are you? Well, they never call anymore. In fact, they never come by. I just like to see my little daughter, Lucy. Sometimes she just brings her kids over. And Tommy, my son, he never comes over. Heck, I'm just sitting here all alone waiting for the phone to ring. The mail never comes, never get any mail. Nobody ever calls me. It's just a terrible thing. That's the way it is. I guess I'll just keep watching these old. The telephone. When it rings, answer it. A great way to get your morning started. This is Bob and Tom. Extra. Thanks, guys. A couple of guests in our studios. The Reverend Ernest Honestly is here with us. Just shout Reverend Glow. Okay. Thank you very much, Reverend. I'm also in the studios. Very famous fellow, Mohandas.

Good morning, Bob. Should put your cans on you to know that it was working. Bob, I carry this can for a spare change. I need to get money for food. I thought you weren't eating. Look at this body. Does it look like a man who is not eating? Good point, Bob. Yes. I figured you might ask me where I have been. Well, I was just gonna mention that you haven't been around in a long time. Where have you been, Mohandas? Bob, I have been watching movies. Oh, really? Yes. Can you tell your little flute player to bl. A little less loudly, please? Thank you. Rico. Rico, kill the music. He's a union guy. He's Italian. Doesn't know anything about my Indian music. I see. Yes, I've been watching movies. In fact, I just watched a wonderful movie. What was it? It starred the famous actor, John C. Holmes. Oh, really? Yes. It was called Johnny Wad's European Vacation. It was great. Was it? Yes. I had to leave the movie right in the middle to come do this show, though. Oh, so you didn't get the climax then? Well, not really. I left. I left John Holmes at the Parthenon. Oh, really? Yes, he was at the Parthenon. I do have an envelope in front of my face, however. You do? Yes, I will. I Will put it up to my head here. Okay, the answer is yes. The answer is a chimney in the winter, a pack of cigarettes and a naked actress lying on her stomach next to a panting John C. Holmes. Oh, I can't imagine. A chimney in the winter, a pack of cigarettes and a naked actress lying on her stomach next to a panting John C. Holmes. Yes. The question. Name a smoking stack, a smoking pack and a smoking crack. No. That is our show for today. I found that world record.

[B]

All right.

[A]

Now I know why I didn't print it. Yeah. Boy, this is really dumb.

[B]

Well, that's why it's called Stupid World Record.

[A]

Yeah, I know. That's. That's my line.

[B]

Maybe we should call it Dumb World Record.

[A]

I'm gonna read this verbatim from the Guinness World Record, people. Okay? The prose is already bothering me. It says, a devoted father living in Denmark has broken the Guinness World Record for the most languages featured in one song. Okay? Wow. Philip Halloon wrote a song telling his son I love you in 521 different languages. I heard the song this morning. It's wild.

[B]

Did you really?

[A]

Yeah, I listened to it. Oh. Is it any good? Honestly, no. First of all. First of all, to have 521 phrases in a song, it must be longer than Mountain Jam on the Allman Brothers Eat A Peach album.

[B]

That's relatable.

[A]

Thank you very much. You could have gone with Freebird. No, no. I mentioned Eat a Peach because yesterday I mentioned Little Martha and all of you musical illiterates had never heard it. Didn't you listen to it on the way home? I did. I liked it. My name is Pat. It's very nice. What did I say, Christie?

[B]

You started to say Christy.

[A]

Oh, sorry.

[B]

That's OK.

[A]

Sorry.

[B]

Pat and I look so much alike.

[A]

40, 41 year old Philip Halloon. Okay, already I'm laughing. Is Mr. Halloon here? 521 different languages.

[B]

How could it have a melody? Because that's what I was wondering.

[A]

It doesn't. It's in A minor. Jason, can you find this when you hear this? He speaks Danish, English, Arabic, Hebrew, French.

[B]

Are we going to run through the 20 languages?

[A]

I didn't even know there were 500. Yeah, yeah, maybe 20. I thought there was one. Maybe.

[B]

I think he starts making stuff up at the end.

[A]

That's what. That's the thing. I mean, how are you gonna know, right? He goes, you're going, oh, yes. That's nailed it. Yeah. Can you imagine? I mean, people are already pissed that Bad Bunny's playing the super bowl halftime. Can you imagine? They brought this guy out. And now to say special hello to fill in the country you've never heard of. Denmark, Middle Eastern, Indian.

[B]

I don't know where you're getting that. Anybody that doesn't live here sounds like

[A]

that and go back home. Wow. So how. How long is this thing? Did you listen to the whole thing? No, I couldn't get through it. It seemed like it might be pretty long, though. It went on forever. Well, it has a minor key.

[B]

Yeah, 20.

[A]

It's on a YouTube clip that I caught. Okay. Did you find this thing yet, Jason? Okay, we're looking. Yeah. Okay. All right. This is once again the Guinness World Record guitar for the most foreign languages in one song. I get irritated if there's a song that's not in English. He beat the old record of guess what. 398.

[B]

Oh, he killed it.

[A]

Oh. Are there 521 different languages?

[B]

Apparently.

[A]

This is why Esperanto was such a great idea. Do you know what Esperanto is? I don't know. Esperanto was a language created by a bunch of goody goodies that wanted to just have all of us live in peace. You know what I'm talking about? Okay. Right. And they were going to have a universal language. Sure. So everyone would just speak Esperanto, spend euros. Okay. Yeah. I think you can still take lessons in it if you want.

[B]

For. Why?

[A]

Well, so you can find your fellow. You can find your fellow peace nerds.

[B]

Do you think Esperanto would. In his 520 languages?

[A]

It had to be, because, like I said, I'm with Jeff on this. I get to 20 and I'm out padding in it. Okay. This is it. Oh, is. Is it marked I love you, or you're just saying hi? Okay. You know, he knows who. You know he knows who pays him. Okay, here we go. Why am I not hearing anything? That's the elect. That's the mute language. Oh, wait a minute. Oh, I see. I'm sorry. The guy's got a musical intro. Yeah. You don't gotta wait before. You gotta get to it. If you have 521. Come on. All right. Okay. What language is that?

[B]

I don't know.

[A]

That'd be 18 right there. Is that more than one language? Yes, I guess.

[B]

I don't know. That's a really long.

[A]

I love you. All I heard was carne asada. I love the karna. Can you imagine being his son and having to sit there and listen to this and act like you love it? Yeah. Thanks, dad. Yeah, he's gonna be 10 by the time he finishes. Yeah, I'm a little light on my Swahili today. Here we go. Here we. I don't know. Monto da Staran.

[B]

I haven't heard a language I recognize yet.

[A]

No. Okay, here we go. Maybe it's the basso profundo of his voice.

[B]

I wonder if he's going in. I wonder if he's going in alphabetical.

[A]

That last one, I think, means don't jump. He gets to the end, someone says, you never said I love you. There we go. Doesn't even rhyme.

[B]

I said it couldn't be there.

[A]

Could not be repeating himself. You know, when my dad's guilt set

[B]

in, he'd, like, buy me a bike or take me to the water.

[A]

What's wrong with this guy? Love you. I love you. I love you.

[B]

Of all the world records to pick, he had to pick that one.

[A]

I didn't pick it. That's the whole point.

[B]

No, I mean this guy.

[A]

Oh, no. I thought it was so stupid. I didn't do the story.

[B]

I can't believe there was already a record like.

[A]

I know. 398. Yeah. What's the time on that song? How long does that. This is just an excerpt. Oh, man. You know, we should do Pat. Oh, I was thinking something going down vulgar lane. Okay. I'm with you. You're like, there you go. Jason just said 23 minutes. 23 minutes. Oh, God. Can you imagine having to suffer through that?

[B]

I can't imagine sitting with my dad for 23 minutes.

[A]

I was thinking of doing one where you do dirty words for. Oh, that'd be fun.

[B]

In different languages.

[A]

Yeah. Remember the song that I did? The song Shut up. I love that song. Where it was. It was all saying shut up in different languages.

[B]

Yep.

[A]

Yes. I had to pay a lady to help me write that. Just I. To translate. Shut up. And she was really sweet. She was a college professor.

[B]

This was obviously before Chat.

[A]

GPT could be. Yeah, but she was a college professor, and she knew all these languages, and. Yeah, she. That's fine. Yeah, I remember. Shut up. As Boon come and. Whoa. No, Boon come, I believe was. What was that? Korean or something?

[B]

Isn't Fairmeila Bush.

[A]

That's French. French. Yeah. Shut your mouth.

[B]

Shut your mouth.

[A]

Yeah. Cheesy bush. How long is the song, Pat? 21 minutes, I think. He says, I love you and 23. Yeah. More than 500 languages. This says 521 languages. Is he doing, like, variations of Chinese and. Oh, I think that. That's.

[B]

I think. Yeah, I'm sure there's. Yeah, there's. How many Chinese languages?

[A]

Portuguese, Various dialects.

[B]

And it have to be. There's no way.

[A]

In any event, he. He did this. A tribute to his son. His name is Philip Halloon, and Mr. Halloon is from Denmark. And I'm going to play a little bit of this for you. And it's kind of a down tempo thing. You'll see. Here we go. Starts kind of like Stairway.

[B]

Guess What? There are 7,000 different languages spoken around the world.

[A]

Oh, God.

[B]

Yep.

[A]

I couldn't even grasp Spanish in high school. Okay, here we go. It is. Here it is. All I heard was something like, dago carne asada. I don't know what the hell that means, but I think it's. I think it's insulting. Either tacos or somebody's shoes. Yeah, here's a little more of it. Was that I love you?

[B]

I don't know.

[A]

What did he say? I love you There. I didn't hear it.

[B]

I didn't hear it.

[A]

Here we go. Yeah. I can't understand any of it. But now, Pat, you are working on a similar project. I understand. And I will say you're gonna. You're gonna say that what? I'll say one word in a bunch of different languages, and at the end I'll say English. See if you can figure it out on the way up.

[B]

All right.

[A]

Okay. So we can figure out the English word. Okay. What's your what? What? What is the first one? What, what, what languages? At least give me a hint. Oh, the very first one is Japanese. Okay, good. Go ahead. Vagina.

[B]

Oh, my gosh.

[A]

Wait, what was that on the break? Are those real? Real?

[B]

That's real.

[A]

That's all real. Okay. Yeah, I did it on the break. I looked it up.

[B]

Gosh.

[A]

Yeah, boy. Chitsu is Chitsu in Japanese means the old vajayjay ying daio. Chinese. That's in Arabic. I'm a hardball. What'd you say? No, that's close. It's. Yeah. Okay. In Russian. Oh, boy. Yeah, I skipped that one. In Dutch. Oh, in Dutch, it's. It's vagina.

[B]

Oh, there you go.

[A]

In fact, the last six of them. In Portuguese, it's vagina. Yeah. In Italian, it's vagina.

[B]

Vagina.

[A]

Vagina pizza. Please don't make it prego. In German, every one of them. In French, it's vajin. You can figure that out? Yeah, yeah. Every one of them. And that's interesting. So I guess USA rules. Yeah. Now if we had more time, I could do a slang terms.

[B]

No, it's okay.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

Did we get to not get to hear your song?

[A]

Oh yeah. This is one we love yourself years ago that I had to consult with a college professor to find out. But these are all according to her. These were the proper translations of the term. Shut up. Okay, we don't have to the whole thing. I'll play a little bit of it for you though. Excuse me, darling, I hate to interrupt you. There's something I must tell you. I will sing for you, my dear, if you find yourself in Holland, they'll say to you how ya mond? In France they'll say ferme la Gaul. In Athens you'll hear Skamos In Berlin it's herten sie de schnauzer. It's simply boom. Come, let me translate for you, darling. Shut up. Shut up. You get the idea.

[B]

Oh, you don't want to hear the whole song.

[A]

Oh, no. That's a classic from the Bob and Tam Bandit Orchestra. Saved by the great arrangement of Steve Ali. I don't know who's singing it that.

[B]

Close your mouth. So I was a little bit wrong. It wasn't shut up but

[A]

gum or something. I forgot what it was. Yeah, that's a live version of that, right?

[B]

Yes, from Live Day.

[A]

Wow, fun. So that's what it sounds like. With no talent. No talent and no sleep. I tell you what, you communicate that song great. I love that.

[B]

That's a great song.

[A]

Once again written during a previous administration, of course. Although talking really wasn't the problem.

[B]

You want to get into that? Would you like a little therapy?

[A]

No, no, no, no. Yeah, let's just move forward here. Now we have Christy Lee at the Silac Insurance news desk.

[B]

Well, we were talking about Vajayjay's groove thing is a sex toy that actually plays music inside the person who's using it. Yeah, that's right. Peaches and Herb. A little shake. Your groove thing, it's being called the world's first internal player and it is now on the market.

[A]

Now before we get to this, I had mentioned earlier that when I. When I first saw the story, I recalled in my days as a runner, I would of course wear prior. Now it's a lot easier. But I can't.

[B]

I really can't really run anymore.

[A]

Yeah, you can wear earbuds now. And before that you could strike. A few years ago you could strap something on your shoulder with a wire. Yeah, but. And then before that there was the Walkman, the Walkman and then there was the Discman.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

But before any of those were around, there was a thing called a bone phone. And pardon the name. I know what you're thinking. It's not a phone. It's not a phone that looks like a set of genitalia. It's a. It was a thing that when we had the ad before it. It looked like a collar.

[B]

Look like a scarf.

[A]

Yeah. And the idea was that it would come through your bones and you could hear it while you were running.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

So you would tune it like an FM radio. Right? Yeah, the bone phone. Okay.

[B]

I don't. I never saw one. This is the first time hearing.

[A]

I don't think. I'm not. I'm trying to go by. I don't think it was a cassette player. Okay. And it certainly wasn't digital.

[B]

No.

[A]

So. But that's how it worked.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Not through the ears at all. You just. You feel it. That no ear.

[B]

Did it work?

[A]

No earbuds. Not very well. And then we had a member. We had a. We had a letter earlier this morning from some guy who also bought one. Right. He said he got one in 1979 and it didn't work real well.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

So now if you want to go from there. This thing, I guess uses the same principle.

[B]

According to the Kickstarter campaign page, the user can feel the music through a high fidelity resonator that transmits sound waves as physical sensations. It's now available. You can purchase it for 339.

[A]

What?

[B]

Yeah. $339 for the single kit, 5.99 for the couples kit purchases. Come with. Are we ready?

[A]

I had come, I wouldn't have.

[B]

I know my audience.

[A]

Inside the woman.

[B]

It's inside the woman. It's inside the man.

[A]

Yeah, keep reading. You'll see.

[B]

Comes with an anal attachment, vaginal attachment and an external massage attachment along with the external speaker. So you got everything going on there.

[A]

You know what it sounds like when you're outside the lady and she's. She's playing that. You pick a song and you'll play it for you now from inside the lady. Go ahead, pick a song. Go ahead, pick a song. Any song.

[B]
