Okay, now some more Bob and Tom. You want it, you need it, you can't live without it. This is Bob and Tom Extra. Hello, chick. Mickey, we got a lot of mail to get to. That's right, we've got one. Concerning one of our staff members. Oh. Oh, go ahead. What is Dear Bob and Tom show. Remember yesterday when Tom said, wouldn't it be great if Mike, Mark, whatever his name is, lost his leg to a shark while he was on vacation? Yes. And if you don't remember it, here's what it sounds like. By the way, Tom, your fear of sharks. Have you seen the shark sightings in Maine? Yeah, up in Maine. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. You're on top of that, right? Yep. Especially since a member of our staff is currently there. Oh, he's back. But he's sick. I wonder if he got bit by a shark. Oh, wait. Would it be great if he walked in only at one leg? Wouldn't it. Wouldn't it be great if someone we've worked for. Yeah. Over 20 years, maybe 30. Only. Only if it was only maybe just a 29. 29. Just a foot eaten off by a shark. You know, like some, you know, sad diabetes thing. Shark bite his foot off. Wouldn't that be great? Yes, I remember that new nickname. See, See, now this only makes me want to be able to listen to us while I'm on my way to work. I guess I can. That's funny. But anyway, this. This writer, Brian, says you. Mike. Mark. What the hell happened to your leg? Little long. Yeah, that's Brian. There you go, Mike. And Mike. Mark is fine. He did not lose a leg. He has all of his limbs. He just has a little cold. He has a little sunburn, but he's back. Okay. And he said his son wants to move to Maine. Yeah, yeah. He hasn't gone in December. Well, that was precisely what he pointed out. Oh, man. It only gets better in December, I think. Yeah, I kind of. Why not? Sunset, like sunset 3:45. No. Yeah, I've never been. Is it. Is it basically just Canada? Does it feel more Canadian than American? Hella chili? Beautiful. It has a different feel. It's a little rocky. I know you like Stephen. Yeah, I've been to man a few times. It's. Yeah. What's it like? It's very rocky. Coastal, lush. Yeah, it is beautiful. Yeah. Lobsters. Gorgeous. Kind of like Michigan, only more so when you get up there. No, I like Michigan at all. It's much like. It's the same thing. You do that for every state. What's sort of like. Oh, it's like Michigan. What's California like? Michigan. I don't know what happened. I don't know what happened to him in Michigan during some sort of, I can tell you, a world class prostitute. Hyman Fest 78. I found $10,000 while getting his first bead on the beach. And she gave him a hundred dollars for the privilege of giving him the blowing. What a great state. This is good. God, we had a lot of James Bond talk yesterday and I don't even remember why. It was somebody's birthday. It was Sean Connery. Oh, yeah, that's why. Here's our James Bond tribute. One of the few characters that has his own. You really like that, don't you? Oh, it's amazing. It's not amazing. Didn't we figure out how to play that last year? Yeah. Diminish something. I did. Yeah, I figured it out. I want to figure it out again. I'm gonna take 10 minutes. I don't feel like going. Yeah. By the way, will you miss it? Yesterday. Did you play any songs yesterday? Oh, yeah. You don't play a couple of them. There was one about Kentucky. You remember the one about Kentucky? I did three songs yesterday and my big hit that's sweeping the Internet. I. Very rarely. You know me, I don't go out a lot during the day. But yesterday I went to three places. Every place. Tell Pat we said hi. You are the new sensation. Willie, we should explain. There are certain words, when you say them, you want to finish them. The word Kentucky, for example. Oh, got it. I paused on the first part of. And he didn't use the. And then he. And then he paused for a long time. Well, then I was trying to improvise. No, no, instead of. And then instead of us being broadcast pros trying to help him, we just start laughing and I made it worse. That'll happen in here. Yeah, it was. Well, that leads to our next letter. Actually, it says, hello, fine people, including the filthy mouthed bad guy. I didn't do it on purpose. What country is the writer from? You're not going to believe it. This is Nathan. Nathan. No, Nathan is from Ohio. He goes. I consider myself a James Bond aficionado. And I have a few corrections regarding yesterday's impromptu James Bond segment. Denise Richards character was Dr. Christmas Jones. We just said her name was Dr. Christmas. Yeah, I thought it was her last name. So it's Christmas Jones. Okay. Barbara Carrera is technically not a Bond girl because the movie Never say Never Again is not recognized as belonging to the James Bond franchise. Fair enough. Why is that? Because that was not made by the Cubby Broccoli Organization and they couldn't use the music. And they couldn't use the music and it is a. It's a terrible Bond in that it's Connery again. Yeah. They offered him a ton of money to come back and never say never again. It's awful. Yeah. It's not. He's correct. It is not part of the. It doesn't belong in the franchise. Plenty o' Toole is, in fact, a Bond girl, but a secondary Bond girl to Tiffany. Case in Diamonds Are Forever. I couldn't remember which one Plenty o' Toole was in. The topic was, these names aren't even subtle. No. Pussy Galore. I mean, octopussy. Yeah. Really? Dr. Christmas Jones. Christmas makes more sense as a last name than a first name. That's even sillier. Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's silly, but it's. Wasn't Pam Greer, Dr. Christmas Jones in one of those movies, was it? Well, I don't know. Yeah. Then he says, lastly, for my money, Claudine Auger is the prettiest Bond girl playing domino in the movie Thunderball. Yeah. She's amazing. Yeah. Yeah. And that's. I think that's. That's a good name. I would argue that's the best Bond. I would argue that's the best Bond. That's the one from the Bahamas, right? Yeah. Yeah. That's my favorite one. That's a really good. And then it's. Although the song is ridiculous. Does he wear that blue jumpsuit in that one? Is that Tom Jones? Yeah, it's. It's. I didn't say. I'll agree with you. It is a great song, but it is ridiculous because there's no such thing as a thunder. They kind of make up. Even Tom Jones said, what the hell's a thunderball? Have you heard Diamonds Are Forever? That song Diamonds Are Forever. But P. S. Is an important BS Here, chick. Yeah. You've ruined the song Skyfall for me. Stick to the name of the movie title. I'm nailing it. You go ahead, play Skyfall. That's what she does. I think that's a pretty good. It is. Adele's a great singer. And. And we've determined. Here we go. I forgot to ask it. Does she do this when she. In her live show? No. No. Skyfall. Are you sure? I'm not sure, but why would you. Because it's a great song. It's a good melody. How. Why? I would kind of think it would bring the house down a little bit, too, honestly. Do you think that's a good song? Yeah. Will you make a point at some point in your life, from. From this moment forward, to listen to the Skyfall in. In some Capacity. Okay. Maybe over Labor Day weekend. I like to click it on while I'm grilling. If you want to get into an argument, though. The best Bond songs, of course, it. I don't think there are. I don't think there are any best. Yeah. I don't even like Live and Let Die. It's like the Zeppelins and Gold doing Goldfinger. I. I think it's three Goldfinger's Great. It's a ham fisted vocal. I and Willie did. Have you watched the Leds, the Becoming Led Zeppelin documentary? I haven't. You like it? Yeah, it's great. And it's pretty funny because John Paul Jones and. And Jimmy Page both play on the hit version of the song. Goldfinger hit version. Why? Isn't the hit version the same as the movie version? No, they're the same. I just say I'm. What if in. With. With respect to Bond songs, only a handful have been hits and Billboard and I would imagine. Probably. I think you may be right, Chick. Live and Let Die, probably number one, maybe. Or that Duran Duran song of you to a kill. That's an awful song. They're all bad. The Carly Simon one, Heaven Above Me. Yeah, I think Goldfinger work works because it's so over the top and. Yeah, I mean, they all work for. That really works. Yeah. But nothing works like this. I don't understand why this is considered one of the worst for you. I don't. There's no. Because it's forced a little bit. Not at all. Nearly as forced as throwing the Spy who Loved Me into that song. This is at least front and center. Okay. He stands tall because sky fall. That's brilliant, Josh. Yeah. I don't know what you guys want from a effing Bond thing. Yeah, I think. I think. I think we're all a little jaundiced because he's shoved Goldfinger down our. Yeah. A lot. In our ears for so many years. Girl finger. Well, no, no, no, no. Let's surely build it out. She's still alive. Well, let's check casket. I mean, when is that. That movie is what, like 64 or something? 61 years old. Still talking about. Here we go. Yeah, we are. Sure. Is this how you guys feel when I talk about Star Wars? Is that what this is? No, it's. That's like a nice modern change of pain. Breathless, fresh air. We long for the days Talking about. Please talk about Star Wars. Yeah. Something from the seventies, for God's sake. Here's the song. Always new. He's the man with A. Okay. Thanks, Shirley. We're not going to get one better than that. Okay. I mean, it is brassy, isn't it? Shirley is 88 is what it is. She's 88? Yes. Just think, Jimmy Page sitting there playing the rhythm guitar. What else did she have as a hit? She's really pretty, actually, for her age. I mean, she looks pretty good. You single? Let's see. Oh, you gotta nail that. Think about that, right? What if we combine two of Tom's favorite things and we got Eddie, our engine, an engineer, to make us a Big mouth Shirley Bassey. And it's. It's a Billy Big Mouth Bass. Oh, yeah. But it sings Goldfinger. Oh, my gosh. Wait a minute. That was emotion. That is brilliant. And you walked in here, it was dark, and that thing went off. Yeah. It would smear. Laughing, though. Never stop laughing. That's probably not that hard to do. No. There are videos of people putting their own songs on those. Big mouth. Billy. I just heard Eddie leave the building. I didn't realize. She's from the United Kingdom. Oh, yeah, yeah. The Sessions, of course. She's a dame or whatever they call that. The female girl knight. Dame Shirley. Yeah, Dame Shirley. Veronica. Basie. Tom, where does she come from? I don't know. Any of her other hits. Being serious. I don't remember. I thought. Was she a. Like a. On the West End and the equivalent of Broadway over there? Because that certainly is an odd pop sound. In any event, we got a nice letter here from Gwen. We had my dad cremated. Oh, okay. When he died 16 years ago, at the time, we had a beautiful speedboat on Elk Lake in northern Michigan. We figured, what a fitting place. What a fitting place for his ashes to be spread. So beautiful up there. My dad also had a race car and always liked to go fast, so we figured we'd hammer the gas and toss him into the lake. My sisters and I were emotional, of course. Of course. And my husband agreed to be the one who would toss the ashes out of the back of the boat. My sisters and I were emotional, of course. Cut to them cheering on a speedboat that's now. That's now theirs. This counts as emotional. Happy is an emotion. I'm so sorry. So once again, we have them on the boat. Yeah. For the purposes of my dream about this letter, it's a Chris Craft, of course, and it's a beautiful old wooden boat. Nice teak. In board. In board. Shirley Bassey is at the helm. Sounds like this. And these three girls are kind of tearing up thinking about what a great guy their dad was. Well, I'm sure one of them had issues with this. Screaming at the gods Once again, the husband of Gwen agrees to toss the ashes from the back of the boat. Yeah. Yep, I bet he did. We were going at least 40 miles an hour across this beautiful lake when my husband tossed the ashes out. They swirled and came back and covered my husband in white ashes from head to toe. He jumped into the lake, by the way, it was Elk Lake in May. Good times. Good times and very chilling. Well, that's a sweet story. Do you remember that we had the letter we had from a guy that was a pilot in. In Ohio, and people would. They'd rent the plane and they would. They'd throw the ashes over some. They'd fly low and throw the ashes out. And he said they. Half the time, most of them would blow back in. So he said he's got a. He's got a little shop vac in his hangar that has the ashes of quite a few people in it that didn't quite make it to the ground. What about that guy yesterday sent us a letter. He grew up next to a crematorium and his mom. Mom and dad would give him a dust mop and go out and clean the cars off from the ash that would settle on the cars. You remember my story about my. Two or three times a week, my dad's in the living room. My dad was in the living room for 10 years. And my sister said, we have to spread his ashes. That's what he wanted. Yeah. And he was a water pollution control biologist. That's what he did his whole life was to save our. Our lakes and our rivers. And he wanted to be put in this favorite. This his favorite river. So we go down there and we, you know, get a little emotional and we say a prayer. We picked a place where there was a little waterfall. So we thought, oh, this will be great. It'll just send his ashes down the river. Sunk, polluted. The darn river. I don't think this is what dad had in mind. This isn't really what he want. I actually finished his life by doing the one thing he spent his life trying to not do. Kind of Oedipal, actually, when you think about it. It was. It actually was quite funny at the time, but. Yeah. Well, I'm sure there are people that have done really negative things to ashes. Oh, I'm sure. Let's go grab the litter box. Yeah, that was my first thought. Yeah. Kitty litter. I know my dad wants to go one of two places. The Metropolitan Opera or a San Franciscan bathhouse. That's it for another Bob and Tom show. Extra.
