Storyteller
This is the true tale of Bix Whiskey Frontier jazz musician. Ah, I'll never forget it. I was working my way through medical school and running, of course, the Whiskeyville Country Club and Whiskeyville Country Club and Salad Bar. I was getting it cleaned up for another night of debauchery and this stranger walks in. Good looking fella. Yeah, kind of disheveled. Like he didn't take real good care of himself, he said. I saw your ad in the paper. I hear you're looking for a piano player Well, I said, that's right. And this fellow proceeded to sit down at the piano and he started playing the most beautiful melody I had ever heard.
Listener
Nice.
Storyteller
As you know, I am an aficionado of fine music. But when I heard this man play, I couldn't believe my ears. I said, that is beautiful, mister. And he said, thanks. That's what he introd himself as. Bix Whiskey. Right? He said, I'm Bix Whiskey, the greatest piano player and songwriter in the world. Songwriter? You wrote that song? He said, as a matter of fact, I did. I wrote that song. It's one of my favorites. It's called. It's called Plowing with My Pork Sword at Orgasm Gulch.
Listener
Yeah.
Storyteller
I said, really? It's such a pretty song. That's kind of an odd name, but it's a beautiful song. You got any more? And he played me another song. It was a wonderful, tender, touching, slow melody. I'm telling you, fellas, it's a song that would break your heart. Tears were welling up in my eyes. I said, what's that song called? He said, well, it's another original. It's called Buzzing the Brillo with My Flying Kidney Wiper.
Audience Member
Wow.
Tom Griswold
That's a wild.
Storyteller
That's a kind of an odd title, but you got anything else? Then he played the most beautiful, birdiest little lullaby you ever heard. I said, bix, that is profoundly beautiful, lovely and sweet. What is that gorgeous tune called? Bix said to me, oh, that one's called My Throbbing Trouser Trout Goes for a Dip in Hare Harbor.
Audience Member
Wow.
Storyteller
I'll tell you, each song was the same as beautiful and soulful and heartfelt and melodies as you ever heard. But all these beautiful songs had lewd, horrifying titles. I can't remember them all, but one of them was called Ramming Speed at Tuna Lagoon. There was another one called. It was called Love Gravy, Weenie War. And there was one called you Lick Me and I'll Owe you One.
Christopher
Wow.
Listener
Well, but beautiful tunes.
Storyteller
Beautiful. And Mix had written every one of them. And then he played a song that I swear to you, to this day is the prettiest song I ever did here. Oh, is that right? And I said, mix, what's that one called? And he said, it's called show me your juicy Hindenburgs and I'll introduce you to Mr. Piledriver. And I said, m. I gotta tell you, Bix, that song is so lovely and it's magical. I mean, couldn't you call it something like Autumn Evening in Paradise or maybe Maybe just an evening lullaby. And I'll tell ya, that's when Bix went berserk.
Listener
Oh, my.
Storyteller
He got all red in the face. He starts puffing and huffing, and he says, don't you ever try to rename one of my songs. They're my works of art. Only I could name him. I'd never seen anybody so red and so angry.
Listener
Temperamental.
Storyteller
So I said, easy, Bix, easy. Look, I'm gonna hire you as my piano player here at the club. And I'm just gonna ask you one favor. Please play your wonderful music. Just don't mention the titles of your songs when you're on stage. We have a mixed crowd of ladies and gents here. We don't want to offend any of them. He said, okay. And. And he said one other thing. I don't take requests. I only play original.
Listener
Okay.
Storyteller
I said, okay. We shook hands. We had a deal that night at the club. I don't have to tell you. He starts playing. Pretty soon the place is packed. Everyone's going crazy. They're lining up to come in. Woman or swooning. They're throwing roses up on stage, Bix has the crowd totally mesmerized.
Listener
Wow.
Storyteller
Then I noticed that with all his shaking and rattling up at the piano, old Bix's fly's open. He's on stage working away at the piano keys. And, you know, pretty soon he's a moving and a grooving, and something just pops right out of that fly. You can imagine, Christy, it was terrible.
Factor Ad
I can imagine.
Storyteller
He finishes the number. He rush up to the stage, and I say, hey, Bix, do you know your johnson's hanging down over the piano bench? He turns all red. He gets real angry. He says, know it.
Listener
I wrote it. And I don't take requests.
Tom Griswold
Now some more Bob and Tom.
Listener
This is Bob and Tom. Extra.
Tom Griswold
Here's Tom Griswold.
Listener
Thank you very much, Shakester. You're welcome, Patty G. I see you working frantically on something bad.
Audience Member
Oh, yeah.
Listener
Okay. We'll look forward to getting a song out of you in just a few minutes.
Audience Member
Cool.
Listener
We do have once one news story that may relate. Boy, this is a stretch. Do you mind if I. I don't mind at all. We get a lot of interesting things coming out of the world of food and drink around the holiday season. There'll be. For example, we had the story last week about the mayonnaise eggnog being used to make eggnog.
Tom Griswold
Sounds delicious.
Listener
You never know. I learned my lesson about this when we did the mayonnaise cake and the chocolate cake. And the cake was incredibly good. Very good. Now there's a story this morning about the famous leg lamp.
Factor Ad
Yeah.
Listener
From A Christmas Story. And the Miller High Life people have gotten all over this and they're doing a special leg lamp beer tower. Do you have that story, Kristen?
Factor Ad
Yeah. Miller High Life paying homage to the 1983 film A Christmas Story.
Tom Griswold
It's homage.
Factor Ad
Homage. The brewer is.
Listener
It's homage.
Factor Ad
The brewer is releasing a song.
Listener
PBR would be homage.
Factor Ad
Yeah. A so called leg lamp beer tower. Measuring three and a half feet tall, weighing 35 pounds, the leg lamp beer tower can hold an entire six pack worth of beer.
Audience Member
No kidding.
Factor Ad
Which it dispenses through a spout on the ankle. Despite being designed to house beer, Miller High Life's lamp does light up. You can get one. It goes on sale December 9th. It's limited edition and it sells for.
Audience Member
You're drinking a lot.
Factor Ad
120 bucks.
Audience Member
You got a hollow leg? Actually, I do.
Factor Ad
I do.
Listener
Beer drunks, electricity. Nothing can go wrong.
Pat Godwin
Did they say if it's bottles or cans?
Factor Ad
I think you pour them in. You pour them in like. Yeah, like a tap.
Listener
Yeah, exactly. You pour it. I don't know.
Tom Griswold
It doesn't look at all like the. Other than it's a leg and there's fringe. I mean, the colors are different and everything.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Listener
It doesn't have that sort of sexy mesh stocking thing.
Factor Ad
Well, probably there's a copyright thing.
Tom Griswold
Really?
Factor Ad
Maybe.
Listener
In any event, it's. I also assume it's not. It doesn't have a refrigeration component, so you'd have to.
Audience Member
Doesn't.
Listener
No, I don't think so.
Tom Griswold
Why wouldn't you put the tap in the thigh and then be able to shove it down into the ice and then suck it up from the bottom?
Listener
Yeah. If you had to put it nice, you wouldn't be able to see the leg.
Factor Ad
Oh, it's red. It looks like a boot. It looks like a jester's leg.
Audience Member
That's not A Christmas Story Leg.
Factor Ad
That is not. They cannot.
Audience Member
I don't know that they're. I don't know that they are. They can't be. They're just saying that's a leg lamp, right?
Pat Godwin
Well, yeah. I mean, if it was a legal issue, why they couldn't have it look the same.
Tom Griswold
They can't be saying it's a leg from the Christmas store.
Listener
The first line of the story is Miller High Life is paying homage to the 1983 film A Christmas Story.
Factor Ad
Well, it doesn't look anything like it.
Tom Griswold
They're dirty liars.
Listener
Okay.
Pat Godwin
Is that in any of the Miller High Life literature, though? Of any of the.
Factor Ad
Oh, there we go. There's an explanation.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Factor Ad
It says the beer company says even though its beer tower is a nod to the film's iconic lamp, it does have a few key differences. Namely, its leg is modeled after the brand's girl in the moon from its labels.
Pat Godwin
Oh, there we go.
Factor Ad
Yeah. Oh, it does come in a fragile box, though.
Listener
The beer's not going to be fragile because it's going to be warm.
Tom Griswold
And is it me, or is that a thick ankle?
Factor Ad
Well, I have that, so I can't.
Audience Member
She plays soccer.
Listener
Cankle, beer. So last night I took my two little girls to the cafeteria.
Factor Ad
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Did they want to go?
Listener
Oh, they love the cafeteria.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Listener
I love the cafeteria. The food's right there. You can see it.
Tom Griswold
Sure, it's federal law.
Audience Member
That's better than pictures on a menu, isn't it?
Listener
So we get there. We get there.
Pat Godwin
We.
Listener
We literally went through the line three times.
Audience Member
These are pictures. I can smell.
Listener
Get stuff eaten. I want more chicken, daddy. Okay, we gotta get back in line. I got to know the. The guy doing the checkout.
Factor Ad
Oh, I bet.
Listener
Luis, you're back.
Tom Griswold
Poor bastard. Just trying to get through the day. Here he comes. Mr.
Listener
Question.
Audience Member
He went through the line three times.
Listener
Yeah.
Audience Member
Well, if you're thinking of the place I'm thinking of, or if you went to the place I'm thinking of, did you have a co Signer?
Tom Griswold
They sure are proud.
Listener
Oh, it's delicious.
Factor Ad
Why did you have to go three times?
Listener
First? They'll be first. Help me go through the line.
Tom Griswold
I'm guessing it wasn't his.
Listener
No, because they wanted more food.
Tom Griswold
There it is.
Listener
So we. We got some chicken and.
Audience Member
Hey, when your kids. I'm not a parent, but from what I understand, when your kids ask for more food, yes, you get the morphos.
Tom Griswold
When they want lobster and.
Listener
No, no, they got the chicken. They got the chicken place. You would have loved a chick. I got the chicken. Oh, God. I'm going back. It was great, all right? But we sat down and Finn looks at me and she goes, daddy, why are there so many old people here? When I looked around, I was. I was like. Most of them were walking by me going, hey, Sonny.
Tom Griswold
Hey, look at this whipper snapper.
Listener
Oh, delicious, though. But the one thing when you're going to the line, you go, don't touch the food.
Factor Ad
Well, did you make me dinner at 4:00?
Listener
No, no.
Factor Ad
Okay.
Listener
It was. It was 5:30.
Audience Member
Oh, the light bird special.
Listener
Yeah, the midnight special. Five Eastern time. But it was great. And they got jello.
Factor Ad
Oh, sure. My kids are a big fan, too, and they're grown now, but they.
Listener
And they wisely. They have the desserts when you first get there.
Audience Member
Isn't that funny?
Listener
You're in line. The desserts are first. Well, actually, they have the salad.
Factor Ad
Salads, and then the desserts.
Listener
I'm not gonna eat salad. His desserts are right.
Factor Ad
The roast beef is so good.
Listener
So no, we had to go back in line to get seconds on the chicken. Then after that was done, we went back in line to get the desserts.
Factor Ad
Oh, you would.
Audience Member
Oh, okay.
Factor Ad
The dessert first.
Listener
Yeah. We didn't get the dessert on the way in.
Pat Godwin
Well, and remember, there's, like, desserts like jello and cheesecake are up front.
Factor Ad
Right.
Pat Godwin
The cookies and the brownies are at the end of the line.
Factor Ad
Yeah. Why is that?
Pat Godwin
Because that's where the real good stuff is, Christy. And that's how you get yourself two.
Factor Ad
Desserts now, right by the iced tea.
Listener
Oh, I learned that the hard way.
Tom Griswold
Oh, this guy's a pro over here.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.
Factor Ad
Like tapioca pudding or something.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. You guys, you look like a tapioca guy.
Audience Member
I enjoy tapioca.
Pat Godwin
What do you feel? How do you like jelly jello? Rather, with the fruit inside. I feel like you're big on that.
Factor Ad
8.
Audience Member
I'm indifferent.
Listener
It's talking to John.
Audience Member
It's fine with me. We had. At school, we had Jello almost every day, and it was either that or with the fruit, and I was fine with both.
Listener
Yeah, the thing my mom used to always make the bananas and the jello, and I hate it, but nothing. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Why don't you get you a bowl of cereal?
Listener
Think about regular Jello. Is. It perfects that slurp thing.
Factor Ad
Oh, don't ever do that again.
Listener
Christy, would you do that for.
Pat Godwin
The soundboard?
Factor Ad
Oh, my.

Audience Member
You got the code for Roman? I'm gonna need it.
Factor Ad
You need to save that sound for our sounds in the bedroom.
Tom Griswold
That's any. Any indic. How you behave.

I think we should have our next. Next meeting there.
Factor Ad
Oh, that'd be great.

Sure.
Audience Member
Those people will hate us.
Listener
They got a little room in the back.
Factor Ad
We did that one. We did that one.
Audience Member
If we can be in the room in the back.
Listener
How often do you get to make. Have the liver for dinner? It's so great. No one ever. That's.
Audience Member
Did your kids question it?
Listener
Oh, they. They didn't touch it. They would.
Audience Member
Right. But did they think you were being gross for eating it?
Tom Griswold
It's an organ. That's right.
Pat Godwin
I remember watching him eat that when I was a kid, and I thought it was like, alie looks so gross when you're a kid. You have no. It just doesn't look like anything you've ever eaten.
Audience Member
Where do you stand now on liver?
Pat Godwin
I still won't try it. It's still too scary for me. I haven't tried it since I was.
Listener
It's one of those things. You're not going to ever make it at home.
Tom Griswold
It has its.
Listener
But when you're out, you can have it and they can have their chicken. Everybody's happy.
Factor Ad
That's because when you make it at home, it smells for days in your house. My mother used to make it.
Audience Member
God, when you don't eat liver, I.
Listener
Don'T like it at all.
Audience Member
Oh, okay. I mean, I knew you didn't like your own. I knew where you were going.

If Godwin needed a kidney, would you donate?
Listener
I can't. I'm sorry. He didn't even check.
Audience Member
What?
Listener
The blood type dismisses it. No, no, no.
Tom Griswold
I bet it's either legal or doctors.
Listener
You need a kidney.
Audience Member
God, when. I got you, man.
Listener
Okay.
Tom Griswold
Doctors have told you not to donate any organs, haven't they?
Listener
Yeah, well, I've had some major surgery of my own.
Tom Griswold
Well, that doesn't mean that you don't have a viable kidney.
Factor Ad
You can't give them your heart. We get that.
Listener
But you have to have viable kidneys. But I need them.
Tom Griswold
You have to have a heart to give it.
Listener
Okay.
Tom Griswold
Hear what I said?
Listener
I'm sorry. Well, you see, so. I'm sorry I got off in this discussion about the cafeteria, but it was so much fun.
Tom Griswold
You know, it's federal law that you have to start eating there now at least three times a week.
Listener
I love it. I'm so. I know that it's not hip and cool, and you know me. I'm the one that goes to all these hipster restaurants, good food.
Factor Ad
I guarantee the only reason you got to go is because she's out of town, right?
Listener
Yeah, she May be out of town.
Tom Griswold
And then next year.
Listener
Yeah, she would. She would go there, and she would not touch anything. You know who doesn't like that place? Women.
Audience Member
Really?
Listener
I tried to get my date.

No, not a date.
Tom Griswold
You took a date.
Pat Godwin
I asked.
Listener
It's right down the street from me.
Audience Member
Yeah, you could walk there.
Listener
Yeah, it'd be good for you, Pat. It's good, good, good time. We were talking about this Miller Beer thing that they're. They're trying to do this homage, if you will, to A Christmas Story.
Tom Griswold
Wrong.
Listener
Yeah, they've. They've really dropped the ball on this. It looks nothing like the leg lamp.
Pat Godwin
Well, they're trying to make like the. The girl on the Miller High Life bottle, but that's iconic.
Listener
Then it's not an homage to a Christmas story.
Audience Member
And, well, the fact that it's a.
Factor Ad
Leg lamp is beer cold, so you're gonna have to drink quick.
Pat Godwin
If I could say this. When you have a Miller High Life, you're not trying to savor that drink. Miller High Life there. It's a good chug beer. It's a good outdoor beer. You can drink it pretty fast.
Audience Member
Talking about it's a champagne of beers.
Pat Godwin
You don't sip it.
Factor Ad
High Life, dude.
Pat Godwin
You can get it. It's like, how many chugs can I get to the bottom of the Miller High Life?
Factor Ad
I thought you were talking about Miller.
Listener
Miller High Life. Superior in the bottle.
Factor Ad
Yes.
Listener
Much better than in the King.

Audience Member
Even a tall boy. Yeah, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Well, there's a beer. A French. A fin de la monde or something. The end of the world. It's like 11% alcohol. That's a chugging beer.
Factor Ad
Whoa.
Listener
So you guys don't like my idea of doing the. Instead of the lamp, you do. Like, instead of a leg, you do just a butt lamp. And for Budweiser and.
Factor Ad
No, we don't.
Tom Griswold
No, we know. Butt light. We got it.
Factor Ad

Listener
The king of rears. You do it in the butt.

Storyteller
You want to be the queen of rears, Christy?
Factor Ad
No, thank you. I don't have a big enough butt.
Listener
Oh, yeah, well, we'll find that. I can make it a little bit bigger.
Audience Member
I think a Clydesdale leg lamp is kind of funny.
Listener
That would be hilarious with a stocking on it. Oh, that would be funny considered. Oh, God, the Miller Beer people should do an Fu. To. I mean, Budweiser, Manheiser. Bush attacks Miller with.
Tom Griswold
You put the tap in the horse's mouth and you, you pull the leg and it. Beer comes out of his mouth.

The BOB & TOM Show Free Podcast - B&T Extra: Beer Leg Lamp, InDaButt, & Tom Playing Basketball Release Date: February 20, 2025
In this engaging episode of B&T Extra, host Christopher, along with regulars Tom Griswold and Pat Godwin, deliver a blend of humorous anecdotes, pop culture references, and light-hearted banter. The episode seamlessly weaves through various topics, ensuring listeners are entertained from start to finish.
The show kicks off with an amusing storyteller segment featuring the fictional character Bix Whiskey, a jazz musician with an uncanny ability to compose melancholic melodies paired with hilariously inappropriate song titles.
Notable Moments:
Introduction of Bix Whiskey: The storyteller recounts meeting Bix while managing the Whiskeyville Country Club. Bix impresses everyone with his beautiful piano playing, leading to his hiring. However, the charm quickly diminishes when Bix's song titles reveal a humorous contrast to his soulful music.
"I said, 'Couldn’t you call it something like Autumn Evening in Paradise or maybe just an evening lullaby?' And I'll tell ya, that's when Bix went berserk." [03:41]
Lewd Song Titles: Despite the heartfelt tunes, the song titles like "Plowing with My Pork Sword at Orgasm Gulch" and "Buzzing the Brillo with My Flying Kidney Wiper" spark laughter and disbelief among the audience.
"He said, 'Don't you ever try to rename one of my songs. They're my works of art.'" [06:06]
Concert Mishaps: Bix's on-stage mishaps, including an accidental wardrobe malfunction, add to the comedic narrative, highlighting the clash between his musical talent and his inappropriate naming conventions.
Transitioning from fictional stories to real-world products, the hosts delve into Miller High Life's latest marketing venture—a leg lamp beer tower inspired by the iconic lamp from the 1983 film "A Christmas Story."
Key Discussions:
Product Details: The leg lamp beer tower stands at three and a half feet tall, capable of holding an entire six-pack of beer, complete with a spout for easy pouring.
"It's measuring three and a half feet tall, weighing 35 pounds, the leg lamp beer tower can hold an entire six pack worth of beer." [09:01]
Homage or Missed Target?: The hosts humorously critique whether the product genuinely pays homage to the original leg lamp or diverges too much, leading to a consensus that the resemblance is tenuous at best.
"They've really dropped the ball on this. It looks nothing like the leg lamp." [17:28]
Audience Reactions: The lively discussion includes playful jabs at the product's design and functionality, with listeners chiming in on its practicality and aesthetic alignment with the beloved movie prop.
Shifting focus to everyday experiences, a listener shares a relatable story about taking their children to the cafeteria, highlighting the humorous challenges parents face in such settings.
Highlights:
Endless Lines for Seconds: The narrative emphasizes the struggle of managing children's appetites and the strategic maneuvers parents use to secure multiple servings.
"We literally went through the line three times." [11:25]
Dessert Logistics: The hosts laugh over the peculiar cafeteria setup where desserts are served first, leading to playful banter about the best strategies to obtain the most coveted treats.
"The desserts first. Well, actually, they have the salad." [13:19]
Generational Humor: Stories about children's honest observations, such as questioning the presence of many elderly patrons, add a heartwarming layer to the conversation.
"Finn looks at me and she goes, daddy, why are there so many old people here?" [12:45]
The discussion pivots to the fascinating world of sports, where unique and often humorous player names become a source of entertainment and camaraderie among fans.
Engaging Points:
Kid’s Mispronunciations: Tom shares an adorable moment where his daughter mispronounces "Saquon Barkley" as "Quan Barkley," showcasing the endearing side of family life intertwined with sports fandom.
"With her sitting watching her iPad, watching the Giants game. The announcer says hand off to say Quan Barkley." [19:33]
Celebrity Cameos: The hosts reminisce about receiving a cameo video from Chick, a sports personality, for a birthday surprise, blending personal anecdotes with their sports interests.
"Chick, I've long forgiven you for insulting me in the video for being a Twins fan." [22:03]
Tom Griswold narrates a humorous incident from a charity basketball game, highlighting the playful yet competitive spirit that often accompanies such events.
Memorable Moments:
Aggressive Play: An exaggerated tale of being fouled hard by a fellow participant, leading to comedic reactions and exaggerated concerns about the intensity of amateur sportsmanship.
"He fouled me so hard on my drive to the basket. All as I'm going down to hit my face on the floor, I hear the crowd go." [23:20]
Host Interactions: The light-hearted exchange between the hosts about teaching kids proper sportsmanship and the mishaps that ensue provides a relatable and funny narrative for listeners.
Concluding the episode, the hosts offer a succinct update on the World Cup, mentioning Brazil's decisive victory over South Korea.
