Bob Kevoian
The Rush with Max Crosby. Follow and listen on your favorite platform. Just when I think you know me and I give you credit for being on the ball, Christmas rolls around and I open your gift and I see you don't know me at all. So if you don't listen to anything else that I have to say all year long, pay close attention to this because this is my real holiday wish. Stop giving me useless crap for Christmas. Forget the Clapper, I don't need to turn my lights off from bed and I don't want to chia dog a chia sheep, a chia cow or a chia head. And don't get some movie on video that's been marked down to 3.99. You wouldn't watch this piece of junk. Why do you think I want to wa. Now here's something that cuts me to the bone. You order a subscription to Sports Illustrated, you keep the magazine and give me the stupid football phone. And I don't need ads of steel buns of steel Richard Simmons deal o' meal or absolutely anything made by Ron Mobile. Stop giving me useless crap for Christmas. Stop giving me crap for Christmas. Useless crap. Stop giving me crap for Christmas. I don't need a radar detector, a compass or a dashboard Jesus or my intestines bound up by a box of hickory farm cheeses. I don't need a showtime oven that cooks like 2 ducks, 12 garlic balls and a turkey or food dehydrator for dried fruit or beef jerky. And please no wall Mountain or count the top spice rack or the ab roller, ab slide, ab rocker, ab dolly or the torso track. No calendars featuring supermodel bimbos or babies in hats and no Christmas music by the jingle dogs and the jingle cats and ask me I'M tired of shirts and my fingers don't even poke out of the sleeve. And hey, isn't this the fruitcake Uncle Mike gave you last Christmas Eve? And if you're even remotely thinking about getting me that singing joke telling wall mounted bass, just remember what that rhymes with, because that's where I'm gonna stick it. Stop giving me useless crap for Christmas. Stop giving me crap for Christmas. I got two words for you. No, thanks. Here's something not to get me a coffee mug with a slogan that says something like, don't talk to Bobby. He hasn't had his coff.
Tom Griswold
It's our way of making sure you haven't missed anything.

The South Carolina Department of Corrections said in a post that the illicit meat was dropped into the Lee Correctional Institution prison and added the hashtag contraband Christmas. A photo from the Bishopville prison showed a raw steak still in the grocery store packaging. Crab legs and old bay. Oh, nice that they had the seasoning.

They need the old bay if they're making Bloody Mary.
Chick McGee
Well, now I want crab legs. Yeah.
Christy Lee
Of marijuana, a couple of cartons of cigarettes. Prison officials said they're investigating. No arrests have been made. I have a question. Where were they going to cook the steak?
Chick McGee
Well, you know, prison wasn't like that for us wise guys. We weren't in there with all those animals. No, we had our own plate. We had a hot plate. Josh should slice that garlic right up in the. High in the plant, right there in the pan. So clear.
Josh Arnold
How do you like your steak? Rare. Oh, an aristocrat.

Obviously they have a kitchen at the prison.
Christy Lee
Well, yeah, but I don't think you.
Tom Griswold

Christy Lee
It's not like a frat house.

But I mean, some of the, Some of the, Some of the inmates probably work in it and. Okay, you know, you can get Johnson to make you that steak tomorrow night, buddy. So what was in there? You got Old Bay. What else?
Christy Lee
Crab legs, steak. Cigarettes? Marijuana.
Tom Griswold
Any lube?
Christy Lee
No. Lubed.
Tom Griswold
It's Christmas. I mean, I'd say I let the guys keep the stuff.
Josh Arnold

Tom Griswold
They're in prison. Give them a break.
Josh Arnold
Give them, I don't know, bread and water, Tom.
Chick McGee
Bread and water.
Tom Griswold
A couple cartons of smokes.
Josh Arnold
I mean, you can't, can't you bring those to somebody if you were to do a visit?
Christy Lee
I think some of the prisons are smoke free now, aren't they?
Josh Arnold
Some of the ones are allowed to vape. We are all looking at Oscar. I don't know why we defaulted to you. I know they're allowed to vape in some prisons, okay? They give them vapes.
Tom Griswold
They can't smoke anymore. What do they.
Josh Arnold
I don't believe so.
Christy Lee
I don't believe they can. I thought we could.
Tom Griswold
That ruins. That ruins a lot of prison movies. I gotta.
Josh Arnold
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
What do they trade?
Christy Lee
Well, ramen noodles. I don't know.
Josh Arnold
Ramen was big. They trade a lot of ramen, right?

Prison works, but, I mean, come on, it's Christmas.
Christy Lee
Operate.
Josh Arnold
What do you mean, come on, it's Christmas? They can't have that. They can't have drones flying back all over the place. Well, I watched a thing the other day. It was a flood, and they were using drones to lift people out of the flood waters.

So if they do that, you're allowed to start shooting?
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Not very. Not very Christmassy, if you ask me.
Christy Lee
Do they do Christmas in jail? I know there's a song.
Josh Arnold
You know, I'm. For family members bringing gifts to the prisoners.
Christy Lee
