The BOB & TOM Show Free Podcast
Episode: B&T Extra: Hot Skillet Handles, Genital Naming, & Jess Hooker
Date: December 5, 2025
Guest: Jess Hooker
Episode Overview
This B&T Extra dives into a classic Bob & Tom blend of humor and irreverent group banter, focusing on three themes: the everyday peril of hot skillet handles, the surprising science of what women call their genitals and how it connects to sexual well-being, and a zany, insightful visit with Jess Hooker. The segment balances offbeat news, snarky stories, and the usual playful bickering, resulting in both hilarious and oddly informative moments.
Key Discussion Points & Insights
1. Kitchen Mishaps: The Mystery of Hot Skillet Handles
(06:08 - 08:06)
- The crew riffs on cookware design—why is it, they wonder, that “the frying pan handle gets hotter than the stove top?”
- Tom complains about burning his hand on a supposedly well-designed pan
- “Can’t we make handles for high-quality cookware that don’t get hotter?” – Tom [06:46]
- Jess, the often-practical in-studio guest, shares she uses “lobster claws” or “bear paws” pot holders, sparking a classic Bob & Tom tangent about “lobster claws” as an adult bedroom prop.
2. Genital Naming: Language, Psychology & Sex
(08:25 - 18:37)
The Science
- Discussion of a study surveying 450+ women about what they call their genitals and how it affects sexual well-being.
- Terms split into: anatomical, vulgar, playful, childish, or euphemisms.
- “Women who used childish terms such as ‘hoo ha’ or ‘vajayjay’ tended to report more negative feelings about their genitals… However, using the vulgar terms during sex associated with positive sexual outcomes.” – News Story [09:10]
The Analysis
- Panel agrees: Confidence in sexual language leads to better experiences.
- Jess Hooker observes, “If they’re using the vulgar terms, they’re hot and ready to party.” [10:34]
- The assumption: Vulgar terms especially come out in sexual encounters, reflecting confidence.
- Tom wonders what gynecologists call genitals in the bedroom—hilarity ensues as they imagine clinical professionals adopting the filthiest language in private as counterpoint to their work behavior.
For The Guys
- Panel debates if men have nicknames for their “front naughty.” The consensus is that most don’t, at least not seriously:
- “I only call them my privates when I’m saluting them after a successful mission.” – (Unnamed Panelist) [11:41]
- “Take some R and R. I bet you have a whole ceremony, don’t you?” – Tom [11:44]
Memorable Terms & Banter
- The group consults a Cosmopolitan article full of slang terms, riffing on:
- "Good good" (“That’s my favorite kind of cottage cheese. Good Culture!” – Tom [14:23])
- “Bajingo,” “Foof,” “Below deck,” “Honey pot”, “Cooter,” “Cooch,” “Coos,” “South Mouth,” and “Itching Jenny”
- Jess on regional differences: “If I were in the South, I think that’s kind of a Southern [thing].”
- On “Cooter”: “That’s a little rough. If I said that, it would be around other girls to be funny.” – Jess [17:31]
Fetishes & Outlandish Speculation
- The discussion veers into sexual fetishes around terms and size, including a joking story about a man nicknamed “Winnie the Pooh” (for getting his head stuck in the “honey pot”). [15:53]
- Questions of physical possibility—panel is both incredulous and amused.
Language as Identity
- Closing this segment, the panel agrees: the words people use in private say a lot about their comfort and confidence.
3. Tangents, One-Liners & Standup Bits
(Throughout the episode, esp. 18:37 – 19:54)
-
The crew never misses a chance for a quip:
- “I got married too young… realized when you’re walking around your own wedding going, ‘there are a lot of nice chicks here.’” – (Unnamed Comic) [18:37]
- “I would never cheat on my wife, unless I was tempted.” – (Unnamed Comic) [19:14]
- “No matter how bad you feel, you can’t help but think—shut the hell up already.” – (Unnamed Comic on a sick spouse) [19:40]
-
Recurring themes: making fun of each other’s quirks or on-air goofs (headphones, sneezing on mic).
-
Pop culture references: Al Pacino’s “hoo-ha,” The Tubes’ song lyrics, and cheeky suggestions to use Cosmo’s slang at actual doctor's appointments.

Summary
This episode of The BOB & TOM Show’s Extra embodies the show’s mixture of unfiltered discussion, observational humor, and round-table honesty. The hot skillet handle segment is oddly relatable, while the survey-driven (and then completely unserious) discussion of “genital naming” steers into the wild territory that the show is known for, helped by Jess Hooker's sharp, down-to-earth takes. Fans of the show—and newcomers—will find laughter, a little inadvertent education, and signature banter that’s as playful as it is profane.
