Harry Carey
the late Harry Carey, and welcome back to this year's Afterlife All Star Game.
Co-Commentator
We are coming to you dead from Purgatory park.
Harry Carey
Game time temperature 143 degrees. Not as hot as hell, but it sure the heck makes me wish I stopped by the confessional booth before I kicked the bucket. Speaking of hell, how about that relief job on the top of the inning by Jeffrey Dahmer?
Co-Commentator
He struck out Mahatma Gandhi on a fork ball that just ate him up. Then got Mama Cast to bite on a slider and she choked.
Harry Carey
Leading off for hell. Now it's Mafia chieftain John Gotti.
Co-Commentator
Talk about clutch.
Harry Carey
This guy always comes up with a hit.
Co-Commentator
He signed a new contract today. He signs a new contract every day,
Harry Carey
taking the hell for heaven. It's Confucius, man. I had that guy in the pregame show.
Co-Commentator
He never shuts off. Here's the pitch and Gotti whacks it. It's a shot. JFK feels it, steps on first and Gotti is. Wait a minute. He pays off the umpire and he's safe.
Harry Carey
That's why they call him the Teflon Don Heaven Skipper. The Lord Almighty is out to the mound. He calls to the bullpen for the
Co-Commentator
left hander and the crowd is wild. This is the they came to see. Malcolm X will take the mound to face Strom Thurmond, Lester Maddox and George Wallace. You can bet X will be looking for a kkk. He is one Muslim hurler who can assalamu alaikum. Make em sw. Holy cow.
Harry Carey
This just handed to me a huge trade in hell. Today the brutal tyrants send Joseph Stalin
Co-Commentator
to the warmongering despots in exchange for Genghis Khan and a foul mouthed vice
Harry Carey
president to be named later. Now Gotti takes his lead from first. He leads the league in stolen bases with 412.
Co-Commentator
He stole them off a truck yesterday.
Harry Carey
In the on deck circle, Lester Maddox is distracting the Islamic reliever by swinging a burning cross. Now a snap throw to first and they've got Ghatti in a rundown. JFK to rfk, back to jfk, back to rfk, back to jfk.
Co-Commentator
Holy cow. Marilyn Monroe lifts up her dress and they throw the.
Harry Carey
Malcolm X into his wind up. He looks towards Mecca and here's the
Co-Commentator
pitch to Strom Thurman. He throws at his head and holy cow, he knocks his hood right off. The racist bigot charges the mound and the dugout's empty. It's a melee. Mother Teresa has Uday and Koussay in a headlock while Yitzhak Rabin shoves Scud missiles up their rectums. That's one place they'll never look for weapons of mouth. Rosa Parks picks up George Wallace by the gonads and slams him against the back of the team bus. And even though they're on the same squad, Jack Ruby and Lee Harvey Oswald are still taking shots at each other
Harry Carey
while the umpires sort this out. Fans, let me remind you that today's game is sponsored by the Hipp hotspot in Hades.
Co-Commentator
That's right. I'm talking about the Whores of Babylon Sports Bar.
Bob Kevoian
Yeah.
Harry Carey
Listen, fans, the next time you need a break from rotating on a spit over the burning flames of eternal damnation,
Co-Commentator
come on down to the Whores of
Harry Carey
Babylon Sports Bar, where we've got 52 screens and we're holding a stool for
Co-Commentator
Steve Baartman at the end of the bar. The Bob and Tom show is still
Bob Kevoian
trying to wake up.
Co-Commentator
In the meantime, more Bob and Tom extra.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Tom. You have some happy letters from our listeners.
Bob Kevoian
Well, you can be the judge of that.
Tom Griswold
All right, sir.
Bob Kevoian
We were talking about shop class and I, I know that some schools have gotten away from doing that, which I think is a huge mistake. I, I loved shop class. Do you remember the name of your shop teacher, Josh?
Oscar
Yeah. Mr. Yuka was in the first shop teacher I had. And my favorite shop teacher. I cannot remember his name.
Tom Griswold
Mr. Yuka.
Oscar
It'll come to me, though.
Bob Kevoian
I had Mr. Tapperton and Mr. Woodell w o o d and he was a true artist. He would have. He would work in various woods that are now illegal to possess.
Tom Griswold
Ebony. Huh?
Oscar
Bola.
Tom Griswold
Bola.
Bob Kevoian
Like there was someone like Coco Burro or something. I forget what it was. Sounds like a restaurant at Disney World. But we were talking about shop class and we have some fine letters here. Dear Bob and Tom, I had a metal shop class and I made several different cast items. But one thing that stands out to me when remembering metal shop class is the welding booths. Metal shop came right after lunch. And what's great after lunch, a cigarette. I would go to the welding booth. It looked like an old school voting booth with a curtain that closed behind you. I would arc weld while smoking a cigarette so the teacher wouldn't know what I was doing. That's Scott in Stockton, California. You're caught.
Josh
Is it safe to smoke while you're welding? That doesn't.
Bob Kevoian
I don't know.
Josh
That seems kind of scary hard to
Oscar
do with a mask.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Bob Kevoian
This is tricky, isn't it?
Tom Griswold
He must have a cigarette holder.
Bob Kevoian
Like a tube maybe. Maybe he borrowed a tube from the lab. By the way, P.S. josh, if you're ever out here in the California Central valley, come go bass fishing with me on the delta. Okay, Scott. Well, thank you very much. That sounds like a. Sounds like a great time.
Oscar
Oscar and I were talking about metal shop yesterday and how just handling that sheet metal was just. You just wear these huge gloves, otherwise they'll just slice your fingers right off.
Tom Griswold
And it was so sharp.
Oscar
And how sawdust is one thing, but metal shavings are a total other animal.
Tom Griswold
My dad worked in a factory. They met. They made steel wool pads. And that fine steel wool would get in his eyes.
Bob Kevoian
Yeah, it was probably in his lungs.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah.
Bob Kevoian
Yikes. I was at a. At one of the printing places that we use and they have these enormous rolls of paper and there are signs everywhere and they have huge first aid kits. You can get. I'll get a fatal paper cut if you're not careful. I mean, it's like these. You don't imagine, like a six foot edge of paper. That's a stiff paper. It's like a giant blade.
Tom Griswold
You think it's possible to cut somebody's head off with a paper cut? Given the right size, you could certainly
Bob Kevoian
cut, as Donnie Baker would have said, the karate artery. I did not watch the. What do you call it? The Met Gala. Yeah, I just saw a little bit of it when I walked by the tv. Apparently they wear outrageous outfits.
Josh
Well, the theme this year was fashion is art. So you can imagine.
Tom Griswold
Oh, oh, really?
Josh
Yeah.
Bob Kevoian
It's interesting because, because on. During the Kentucky Derby, one of the just great, wonderful things about the Derby are the crazy hats.
Tom Griswold
Well, they're not crazy.
Bob Kevoian
Oh, some of them are loony.
Tom Griswold
Oh, now.
Bob Kevoian
Oh, that's. I mean, that's great. That's part of it. It's. It's not. It's supposed to be kind of fun in some cases. In any event, I did not see. Apparently it's like a hundred thousand bucks a pop to be.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, 100,000 a seat, baby.
Bob Kevoian
But it's obviously a charity thing for the museum. A cardi b.
Josh
Yes.
Bob Kevoian
And this Michael writes, she wore an outfit that appeared to look like her intestines were exposed.
Josh
I did not see that one. Wow.
Bob Kevoian
Really? This is from Michael in Alpharetta, Georgia.
Tom Griswold
I'd rather see that ass, by the way.
Bob Kevoian
He says, wearing and wearing an outfit that looks like your intestines are exposed. That shows a lot of guts. Okay, thank you very much, Michael. We appreciate it.
Tom Griswold
That's more of a print piece.
Oscar
Yeah, yeah.
Bob Kevoian
Not at all. I think it's very clear what he's doing there. Now.
Josh
There are a lot of nipples on the.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, the Rock. The Rock's wife had a weird dress on the.
Josh
They were like fake breastplates that these ladies were wearing. And it. So the nipples were exposed. It was bizarre.
Tom Griswold
And the Rock had her. His wife had. Accentuating the. The areola.
Josh
Yeah. Roses or something.
Bob Kevoian
Or something.
Josh
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And they made a big deal out of the Rock wearing a three million dollar wristwatch. And I, I, well, you know, the Rock's done pretty well.
Oscar
Yeah. A man's allowed to spend his money however he wants.
Tom Griswold
Buy a three, Buy two.
Oscar
Right.
Bob Kevoian
Okay. Three million. Are there little people inside it?
Tom Griswold
I. I don't know.
Bob Kevoian
What's it made of?
Tom Griswold
It's very nice. Watch.
Bob Kevoian
Made of baby flesh.
Josh
Some billionaire from India was wearing a 15 million dollar necklace. This tanzanite that was as big as my fist. It was like. It was unbelievable. But it was a bunch of billionaires this year.
Bob Kevoian
Also a lot of fisting going on after the show. Let's face it.
Tom Griswold
Come on, you're going to have the ultra rich.
Bob Kevoian
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
The ramrods between them. Eating, eating veggies.
Bob Kevoian
This comes to us, Brian, with a special hello too. And the gag. Here he goes Chuck.
Tom Griswold
Oh, that's because that's funny, jackass. What's matter what I read in the
Bob Kevoian
wrong order, didn't I? I made him mad. No, it's because that was your name before you became Chick the first. And you. This is. See, he's a fellow Ohio guy. So back in the day, I think
Tom Griswold
I've been Chick longer than I was Chuck.
Oscar
Oh, okay.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I think we're at. Yeah, I just had dinner with a bunch of the people from high school a couple weeks ago, maybe a month ago now. And they all call me Chuck. And it's odd. It's very odd. I don't trust any of them.
Bob Kevoian
It's got to be word for you too. I think it's interesting that Christie's husband calls her Christy, which is her radio name.
Tom Griswold
Well, Chick is my radio name.
Josh
I guess my real name no one uses.
Bob Kevoian
Yeah, and if anyone calls Ace by his real name, he has them killed.
Oscar
You were a spear. Disappeared.
Bob Kevoian
Yeah, I, I know that.
Oscar
Right.
Bob Kevoian
I'm assuming that they're dead. Forgive me, I. Back to the letter. This comes to us from Springfield, Ohio. Kind of a place you're familiar with.
Tom Griswold
Why do you assume they're dead? Because you're scared of Ace. What's the problem?
Bob Kevoian
Careful, he's smart.
Tom Griswold
What's the problem?
Bob Kevoian
Chuck might disappear.
Tom Griswold
He goes, man, I. I wait for that day.
Bob Kevoian
Greetings from Springfield, Ohio.
Columbia Sportswear Announcer
Chuck.
Bob Kevoian
Greetings from. There's a cool.
Tom Griswold
He did it again.
Bob Kevoian
Let's.
Tom Griswold
I know.
Bob Kevoian
I'm reading it in the order it was written.
Josh
Okay.
Bob Kevoian
He goes. This is a very cool historic event I'm sure Tom will appreciate and maybe no one else. The Big Boy 4014 is one of the largest steam trains ever built. It's touring the United States as part of the 250th birthday of the USA.
Tom Griswold
That's your big boy?
Josh
Yeah.
Bob Kevoian
It's stopping in our neck of the woods in June. And there's a drawing of it that is a monster of a locomotive. That's a beautiful piece of work, isn't it?
Josh
Yeah.
Bob Kevoian
Look at that giant cow catcher up front. Why do you suppose they named it?
Oscar
That even look real?
Columbia Sportswear Announcer
That's AI.
Bob Kevoian
I think that's a painting. That's a painting of it, yeah.
Josh
Why wouldn't they call it a cow killer?
Tom Griswold
A cow killer.
Oscar
Yeah. It's not really catching them at all.
Bob Kevoian
Yeah, that's.
Tom Griswold
By God, when you're right, you're right, Christy.
Bob Kevoian
Yeah, that's what I mean. I mean, that's one of those. Lifting their carcass out of the way
Co-Commentator
is what it's like.
Bob Kevoian
It's one of those things where they. They don't name it what it is. Like euthanasia. Oh, we're gonna make him young again.
Oscar
No, that is a wild engine, man.
Bob Kevoian
Yeah. So the.
Tom Griswold
The big, like Snowpierce.
Oscar
Exactly.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Bob Kevoian
The Big Boy 4041. Schedule is online.
Tom Griswold
Okay, I'll make sure not to look at that. Okay.
Bob Kevoian
Well, there are people that are interested in history and. I mean, look at that amazing machine. Think about that.
Tom Griswold
Peter. Peter Pan complex and model railroads. Is that.
Oscar
Is that what you.
Tom Griswold
I won't, girl.
Bob Kevoian
No, I. I opened up the show. Something happened. I wanted to.
Tom Griswold
The most extensive collection of tennis shoes you'll ever see. Not that I'm gonna grow up, by
Bob Kevoian
God, but let me see if I can read this one.
Tom Griswold
All right.
Bob Kevoian
Sir, I thought we were encouraged to heckle.
Tom Griswold
We're not. I thought I was helping. Am I not helping?
Bob Kevoian
Yeah.
Co-Commentator
No.
Bob Kevoian
But this guy recognized right away that I would be the only one that was interested in this.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Bob Kevoian
Thank you, Brian. I appreciate it.
Tom Griswold
Why don't you have a model railroad with a little engineer cap in the basement? I see you doing that. There's still time.
Bob Kevoian
I don't have that kind of time. But that's super fun, though. I sometimes go to the fairgrounds. They have those shows. There's amazing. Dear Bob and Tom show.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Bob Kevoian
Writes Jay listening at. Hey, boy. Medford, Oregon.
Tom Griswold
Jaybird. Hey.
Bob Kevoian
In shop class. I better not give Jay's last name. He Reynolds. He carved some elaborate pipes. And he says, you know those kind of pipes. I also made a hammock chair.
Josh
Nice.
Tom Griswold
You mean a chamek.
Josh
They look. They're rope that are attached to wood.
Oscar
Or a hair.
Tom Griswold
Yes.
Bob Kevoian
Neither one of those.
Tom Griswold
Hey, Josh. Nice looking hair you've got there.
Oscar
And I love your chemic.
Tom Griswold
Thank you.
Bob Kevoian
Hi, Magus. I prefer Chamix. Yeah, it's kind of nice. That'd be cool. He also says I made a steamroller out of chrome tailpipe.
Tom Griswold
Huh.
Bob Kevoian
That sounds like. Apparently Jay very good.
Tom Griswold
In shop class, I made a lawnmower out of an end table one time. It was beautiful.
Oscar
Couldn't cut grass. Where the hell.
Tom Griswold
No, no. You could sit things on it, though, I'll tell you that.
Bob Kevoian
You say you have a desire to take a glass blowing class?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I think I'm going to. But this guy said, be careful, don't inhale, because you'll end up with a pain in your stomach.
Oscar
That's absolutely an audio joke as well. Yeah, absolutely. That's not just for the written.
Tom Griswold
If I emphasize pain enough, they get a P, A, N, E, not P, A, I, N, but it would be.
Bob Kevoian
So you're saying you read it properly that time.
Oscar
No, he did it right first time.
Columbia Sportswear Announcer
Soon.
Oscar
Yeah. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Okay. Now, see, I appreciate you heckling me. You're helping me. Dear Bob and Tom show. Isn't it about time that Tom becomes obsessed with those little shoe covers that contractors put on before entering your home? Oh, yeah. I say, the time has come.
Josh
Do you keep those in your car?
Bob Kevoian
And I never. Whenever guys come over to do stuff, I never make them put.
Oscar
Yeah. I always tell them, don't worry.
Tom Griswold
I absolutely insist on it.
Josh
Really.
Tom Griswold
As a matter of fact, I say, do you have an extra pair? And I put. Just to make them feel at home.
Bob Kevoian
You and I are the. I always say, hey, would you like it? I've got, you know, I've got Coke, I've got Mountain Dew, I've got soda water.
Tom Griswold
Fix it and get out of here, please.
Bob Kevoian
If you feel free to use the
Tom Griswold
bathroom, hit the uniform. You don't have a beer.
Bob Kevoian
You don't give a guy who's about to use power tools after they're done. No, I. I have done that.
Tom Griswold
No Cosmo, no Manhattan.
Bob Kevoian
In fact, I did have an incident occur. This is. This is. No matter how I tell this, it's going to come out wrong. So go to hell.
Tom Griswold
Roger that.
Bob Kevoian
I had. I had a very kind gentleman of Hispanic origin.
Tom Griswold
Oh, boy. What'd you offer him? A taco?
Bob Kevoian
Can I say that? Would you like a margarita? And I. I brought him into the house, and he was. No matter how I tell the story, he was with several other gents.
Josh
Yes.
Bob Kevoian
Who were all, you know, pronounced the G. Like they were all. They were all fluent. And they were all fluent in Spanish.
Tom Griswold
Less than 3. They don't leave the house.
Bob Kevoian
Coming from various Central American countries. In any event, they were born in Boston. Yeah. It was a Friday. And I don't drink beer. But my son Willie, whenever. He always brings stuff over or whatever. So I had this. I have this refrigerator. It's full of all these exotic beers, right? So I brought this, this, this guy was in the house, says, hey, come over here. Why don't you guys take some of this? And there was this guy, spoke virtually no English. I mean, it was really tough.
Tom Griswold
Okay?
Bob Kevoian
And I, I get more laughs when I try to speak. When I try to speak Spanish to these guys, I get bigger laughs than I've ever gotten on this show. I'. What?
Tom Griswold
I just realize if you speak English loud enough and slowly.
Bob Kevoian
But I do know, I do know the word cerveza, right?
Oscar
Sure.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Bob Kevoian
And Willie had purchased a number of exotic beers. So I, I, I opened up the, I opened up the door. It's. How do I. Beer fridge. I opened up the door to the fridge, and there was a bunch of stuff on the, on the door itself.
Josh
Sure.
Tom Griswold
Please tell me you said mucho cerveza,
Bob Kevoian
and I just said, no cerveza. And I pointed to, as it happened, most of the ones that were all Modelo.
Josh
Is that what you're going to say?
Bob Kevoian
No, they were. Yes, they were. And the guy chose to walk off with two sixes of, of Miller High Life.
Oscar
You know, because I've always, I've tried to teach Willie what a beer actually is.
Tom Griswold
Miller highlight.
Oscar
And I'm totally serious, and he won't listen to me. I would have walked off with a Miller High.
Bob Kevoian
No, I know, but that's what Willie was. Willie gets, but he also gets the other stuff.
Oscar
Well, I know what he gets.
Bob Kevoian
I just thought it was really funny that he would choose the Miller High Life.
Oscar
Well, I've teased Willie. I said you like beer, that you like the beer that people who don't like beer, like, that's what he gets. It's like people who go to sushi restaurants and they get the deep fried covered in sauce. Bs. You don't like raw. You don't like sushi.
Josh
The shrimp tempura, California roll that has nothing in it.
Tom Griswold
The number one selling beer in the
Bob Kevoian
United States is Modelo.
Tom Griswold
Modelo Michelob Ultra. By volume.
Bob Kevoian
What?
Tom Griswold
By volume. That means the louder you drunk, the louder you talk.
Bob Kevoian
I thought I just read it was
Tom Griswold
Modelo top by dollars is Modelo especial.
Josh
I think Mick Ultra is pretty darn popular everywhere you go.
Bob Kevoian
No, I'm not denying that.
Oscar
Yeah, that's interesting. So sales, Modelo Volume, Michelob Ultra. That just shows you the margins.
Tom Griswold
That's right. Oh, yeah.
Bob Kevoian
I'm confused. What does that mean by volume?
Oscar
So there's more served. So it's cheaper. Yeah, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Volume means how Much. They're. Nevermind.
Bob Kevoian
I think the way you're undermining an interesting story of mine is fine.
Tom Griswold
Hey, how are you? I'm trying to save you from.
Oscar
So I guess. I guess what he's. What? Tom, Is this what you're saying? Since they the men were what you would call exotic, you thought they would take exotic beers?
Bob Kevoian
Well, I thought because that's the more expensive. I thought maybe. I was trying to say here's a
Oscar
little even more troublesome.
Bob Kevoian
Here's a little. Here's a little taste of your home, senor.
Oscar
Oh, so it was stuff like Dos Equisimo.
Bob Kevoian
He ended up walking off with the he.
Josh
Oh my gosh.
Bob Kevoian
Well, maybe he's being polite.
Oscar
There's also a chance Dos Equis Modelo is not consumed in Mexico.
Tom Griswold
Or understand that in your effort to not be racist you were incredibly racist.
Bob Kevoian
No, I was offering.
Josh
Okay, okay. Sorry.
Tom Griswold
Dear Bob and Tom show anyway these shoes.
Bob Kevoian
Then I'm gonna offer them the tequila Kentucky bourbon. I said what the hell.
Oscar
What is happening here?
Tom Griswold
Okay, Tom to come to the stuff they can cover their shoes and contractors in a little blue booties. This way you won't run the risk of someone tracking goose poop throughout the building. That's right. It's still out there on the steps and stairs.
Oscar
Well done over there, fellas.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, good job.
Bob Kevoian
I looked for the snow shovel yesterday to get it off and that's. I couldn't find it.
Josh
Do you think.
Oscar
Oh it's right. It's. Honestly, it's right by the front door.
Bob Kevoian
Oh yeah.
Josh
Do you think they could.
Bob Kevoian
I was back in engineering.
Josh
No wonder I could take a nap on the couch over there.
Bob Kevoian
We've been. We've been in this building for decades and I've never seen this happen before. I don't know what happened over the weekend. And you know my policy on geese. These so called Canada goose. Yeah, I think there should be a bounty on them. One of my favorite trails you can't use anymore because too hard to explain. Along the canal. You ever tried to walk on that? You can't now. It's nothing but goose manure. Af we need to turn them into Soylent Goose.

Podcast: The BOB & TOM Show Free Podcast
This episode of B&T Extra brings together the show’s signature blend of comedy, nostalgia, and cultural commentary with an emphasis on listener letters, stories about high school shop class, and reactions to the latest Met Gala fashion. Hosts Tom Griswold, Bob Kevoian, Josh, and Oscar riff on topics ranging from memorable teachers to outlandish haute couture, seamlessly segueing into amusing asides and classic banter.
On Met Gala Fashion:
“Wearing an outfit that looks like your intestines are exposed – that shows a lot of guts.”
— Listener Michael (as read by Bob), [10:48]
On Offering Contractors Beer:
“I opened up the fridge…and there was this guy, spoke virtually no English…I do know the word cerveza, right? ... He ended up walking off with two sixes of Miller High Life.”
— Bob, [18:30]–[20:17]
On Shop Teachers:
“Mr. Woodell—W-O-O-D—and he was a true artist. He would work in various woods that are now illegal to possess.”
— Bob, [07:06]
On Goose Poop:
“One of my favorite trails you can’t use anymore…it’s nothing but goose manure. We need to turn them into Soylent Goose.”
— Tom, [23:37]
This episode is a quintessential slice of BOB & TOM: equal parts nostalgic, topical, and gleefully off-the-wall. Even if you’ve never heard the show, you’ll walk away with a sense of the hosts’ camaraderie, their fanbase’s quirky contributions (via listener letters), and their knack for skewering everything from high society fashion to the politics of home repair — all delivered with that signature Midwestern wit.
