Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Archies Music Debate and Mis-remembered Band Roles

(02:37 – 03:59)

• Bob is gently called out by listeners for previously misattributing the tambourine player in the band The Archies. He admits the mistake, with the gang riffing on who actually conducts the band.
• This launches a round of nostalgia for the hit "Sugar Sugar" and its oldies-radio legacy.

Notable Quotes:

• Bob Kevoian (03:00): “Evidently, Betty plays tambourine in the Archies. And Hot Dog conducts the band. I had no idea.”
• Josh Arnold (03:18): “I kind of like the idea of Hot Dog playing the tambourine more.”

2. Listener Letters: Home for Pills, Medicine Cabinets, and Pill Caddies

(06:00 – 08:27)

• A letter from Shannon prompts a discussion on where everyone keeps their medicine—kitchen, bathroom, or “everywhere.”
• Bob admits to snooping in medicine cabinets (“I always do”), then segues into pill caddy confessions, with Josh revealing he has three—morning, afternoon, and evening.

Notable Quotes:

• Bob Kevoian (06:36): “I always do [look in the medicine cabinet]. Oscar, do you do it?”
• Josh Arnold (07:57): “I have three [pill caddies]. Morning, afternoon and evening.”

3. Kid Logic: “Fire Sandwich” and “Water Seasoning”

(08:29 – 09:38)

• Listener Dan, playing dolls with his daughter, shares her phrase: “Daddy, could you hand me the fire sandwich?”—her word for s’mores. Another listener recounts his daughter asking for “water seasoning” instead of Crystal Light.

Notable Quotes:

• Oscar (08:58): “She then asked me, daddy, could you hand me the fire sandwich?”
• Chick McGee (09:22): “She asked me if we had any water seasoning.”

4. Parental Adventures: Barbie Dream Houses and Little Tykes Slides

(10:17 – 10:47)

• The cast shares the struggles of building toys for kids, from Barbie Dream Houses with elevators (which are surprisingly easy) to a Little Tykes slide that stumped Bob for eight hours.

Notable Quotes:

• Bob Kevoian (10:47): “That mother... son of a... it took me eight hours.”

5. World Records and International Listeners

(11:14 – 11:39)

• The show gets a shout-out from Lord Joseph McGrail, a town crier and Guinness World Record holder for loudest shout, tuning in from Australia.

Notable Quotes:

• Bob Kevoian (11:15): “He can—so loud. He’s as loud as rock concerts and a jet engine.”

6. Spam Dogs and Cheese Nostalgia

(12:09 – 12:44)

• Listeners report on unique ballpark foods like Spam Dogs, which the gang remembers eating with cheese and white bread while watching cartoons.
• They reminisce about different types of Spam and the dubious pleasures of Zima.

Notable Quotes:

• Bob Kevoian (12:24): “I don’t have a problem with Spam. I’ll have a Spam. One of my treasured afternoons is cartoons and Josh and the microwave and Spam and cheese on white bread.”

7. Legend of the Upper Decker

(12:51 – 13:17)

• The crew discusses the “upper decker” prank (defecating in a toilet tank). No one claims to know anyone who’s done it, but everyone suspects Tom may have—or at least likes to claim he has.

Notable Quotes:

• Josh Arnold (13:09): “You think Tom has done an upper decker?”
• Bob Kevoian (13:13): “Actually has. I don’t think anyone actually has. I think it’s just legend, really.”

8. Funny Names for Animal Groups

(13:53 – 14:45)

• Listener Gary proposes “a militia of Etheridge” as a group name jest. Another points out the “sturgeon general” with a pun on fish schools’ leaders.

Notable Quotes:

9. Fishing Stories, Lures, and Childhood Entrepreneurship

• They reminisce about salvaging lost golf balls from ponds with potato sacks and selling them as kids.

Notable Quotes:

• Josh Arnold (16:41): “Did you catch something on that [frog lure]? Oh, yeah. A big bass.”
• Oscar (17:29): “They have scuba divers who will go down and find, like, a log in, and there will be 300 lures hooked to this log…”
• Oscar (18:07): “Like just the net that the potatoes come in, because you could, like, drag it and all the soot would go through it. You would have the balls.”

Memorable Moments & Running Jokes

• Chick’s “you are my candy whore” lyric riff to “Sugar Sugar” – a classic moment of accidental mischief (04:16).
• “Fire sandwich” and “water seasoning” – two phrases likely to join the show’s dictionary of child-originated neologisms (08:58, 09:22).
• Oscar’s legendary “hot dog in a paper towel” microwave trick getting called out by a listener.
• The digression into “upper decker” lore (12:51), with the gang teasing Tom’s (implied) pranking history.
• The cross-generational differences in medicine storage and the humble routine of filling pill caddies as a sign of aging (07:57–08:15).

[Unidentified Singer/Performer]

Oh, my goodness.

[Christopher]

We know what you need.

[Bob Kevoian]

Here's another healthy dose of Bob and Tom. Extra emails from our listeners concerning calling me a blowhard, which. Well, I will go along with the Archies. We have photographic proof of this. Evidently I shot my mouth off last week and said hot Dog plays tambourine in the Archies. Evidently, Betty plays tambourine in the Archies.

[Chick McGee]

Chick.

[Josh Arnold]

How dare you.

[Bob Kevoian]

And Hot Dog conducts the band. I had no idea. There he is. Look at him.

[Chick McGee]

You're right.

[Josh Arnold]

I kind of like the idea of Hot Dog playing the tambourine more.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think so, too.

[Pat]

Yeah, it works better than Conducting.

[Bob Kevoian]

If they would have workshopped that they would have known. And did you like. Be honest. You like Sugar Sugar?

[Chick McGee]

I love that song was one of my first 45s. And for you people out there that don't know what a 45 is, what

[Pat]

was their follow up to Sugar Sugar?

[Chick McGee]

I don't think they had one.

[Bob Kevoian]

Something like Bang the drum slowly.

[Chick McGee]

No, it's not.

[Bob Kevoian]

You're too young for Sugar Sugar. You probably.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. I grew up listening to the oldies though my parents always had it on. Well familiar, well well aware.

[Bob Kevoian]

Honey, honey. Oh, see?

[Josh Arnold]

See what's a hit?

[Bob Kevoian]

You all know it. Oscar, you like Sugarshin?

[Oscar]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

That was never the case.

[Josh Arnold]

Sugar, sugar. And he goes, honey, honey. And the next line, he goes, you are my candy whore.

[Pat]

I like that.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think I might have wrote. I think I might have wrote that right there on the spot.

[Chick McGee]

Candy, huh?

Let's see.

[Pat]

Let's all do.

And you've got me wanting.

[Bob Kevoian]

Anybody else? Got any? You got a letter, Christy?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, I do.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, well, hold on to it. You guys were talking, talking about the keytar the other day. This is from Michael. He doesn't say where he lives. That's up to him. This is some gentleman playing keytar on stage. And I'm not sure who this band is, but look at that. They are ready to rock.

[Josh Arnold]

It's looks like they're called the Glam Band and they.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Must be some sort of COVID 80s.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, that is.

[Chick McGee]

That is some wig, dude.

[Pat]

That's quite an outfit.

[Oscar]

That is some belly.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that is.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, that's who I want to see if I. If I go see the Glam band. That's who I want to.

[Pat]

It's like a Casey in the Sunshine Band belly.

[Unidentified Singer/Performer]

Look at the.

[Bob Kevoian]

Look at the young thin kid on base. Yeah, Nobody speaks to him in the band.

[Josh Arnold]

He's got a lap.

Yeah, because he's getting all the girls.

[Josh Arnold]

My goodness, that's a great keytar. Yeah, he's. He'll be swatting them away, won't he?

[Pat]

You know, our favorite Donald Sagan plays a keytar. Did you know that?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes, he does. Yes. Not so much anymore, but I know

[Pat]

during the certain period of time during the year.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, that's true. What do you got over there?

[Chick McGee]

Christy, this is from Shannon in Kennewick, Washington. They have a great humane society there. Good morning, radio friends. I was looking for a new bottle of vitamins and asked my husband, this is a Thomas.

[Bob Kevoian]

This is such our show. I was looking for new vitamins if

[Chick McGee]

they were in the bathroom. Glove box.

[Bob Kevoian]

When you go to someone else's for the evening, do you go through their medicine? You go to the bathroom? Do you go through the medicine cabinet? Be honest.

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Bob Kevoian]

Christine? No. Pat?

[Pat]

No.

[Josh Arnold]

Josh answers, I never have.

[Bob Kevoian]

I always do. Oscar, do you do it?

[Oscar]

Never.

[Chick McGee]

Really? What? Have you found anything fun?

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah. I rob him blind.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you. You look to take.

[Bob Kevoian]

Did you know, according to. I looked to take. According to who? Chandler Bing. I'm spacing on Matthew Perry. In Matthew Perry's book, he would follow the open houses in the area and go and look at houses specifically to go look real in the medicine cabinet.

[Josh Arnold]

That's when you know you've got something going on.

[Bob Kevoian]

Or did he have it so together?

[Chick McGee]

But this is interesting because I don't keep medicine in the bathroom.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, no. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

In the medicine cabinet.

[Chick McGee]

I don't have a medicine cabinet, first of all.

[Josh Arnold]

Most of mine is in the kitchen.

[Chick McGee]

Most of mine's in the kitchen as well. In the pantry. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Would it surprise you guys to know that I have it everywhere? I have it in one bathroom and a little in another bathroom and some in the kitchen.

[Chick McGee]

And we have a medicine.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, I think there's some. Might be some on my end table that. Where I sit and watch television.

[Chick McGee]

Really?

[Pat]

Oh, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's in case I need a quick hit of something. I have it right there so I don't even have to get up.

[Chick McGee]

Pat, where do you keep your drugs?

[Pat]

A half and half kitchen and the bathroom.

[Chick McGee]

I had the. The oldest daughter had the Barbie. The dream Barbie. Dream House with the elevator. Just like in the. In the commercial or the music video.

[Chick McGee]

The movie.

[Josh Arnold]

I put one of those together once.

[Bob Kevoian]

Did you?

[Josh Arnold]

I remember a barn door being particularly tricky. I was like. It had the elevator. The elevator was. Wasn't that bad. It was this other door that just took, oh, I don't know, most of Christmas.

[Bob Kevoian]

I put a little tykes slide together, which they had. Remember, they climb up.

[Chick McGee]

There's a platform. Absolutely.

[Bob Kevoian]

That mother. Son of a. It took me eight hours. I don't remember this. So help me, dear Bob and Tom show. I really love that you mentioned my Guinness world record last Friday. I am the town crier from Australia.

It was a record.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, well, like 132 decibels.

[Josh Arnold]

[Bob Kevoian]

This is Lord Joseph McGrail.

[Josh Arnold]

He's a Lord.

[Chick McGee]

And where is he again?

[Bob Kevoian]

It says town crier from Australia.

[Josh Arnold]

Nice.

[Chick McGee]

He's listening to the show. That's awesome.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's what he's. Or he's upside down. You think? Why did he email us?

[Josh Arnold]

I thought he would have just shouted it to us.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, lots of nuts. The town cry now, are you? Huh? Dear Bob and Tom show and you treasured hosts. That sounds like a he's. But I want you all to know I had a spam dog at the West Michigan Whitecaps game on Father's Day. Yeah, it was absolutely delicious. Similar flavor and color as a bratwurst with the shape of a hot dog.

[Chick McGee]

Aren't bratwurst shaped like a hot dog?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, well, they've got more of a curve to them than they're thick.

[Bob Kevoian]

But it's all. It's all Spam. I.

[Josh Arnold]

No reason to be ornery.

[Bob Kevoian]

Spam. And I have no. It was kind of a shot at the ladder.

[Chick McGee]

Sorry, letter writer.

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't have a problem with Spam. I'll have a Spam. One of my treasured afternoons is cartoons and Josh and the microwave and Spam and cheese on white bread. We had a great day.

Oh, those are good times. Do you know what the upper decker is, Josh?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, God.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I. You know, I've never known anyone who's done one, and I've never done it. And I've never been to a party where it's been done.

[Chick McGee]

I think you do maybe know somebody that's done one.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, and I was unaware. Gotcha. Like somebody.

[Chick McGee]

I think he talks about it too much to not have done.

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't tell.

[Pat]

I think he has.

[Josh Arnold]

You think Tom has done an upper decker?

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't. I think he says he has.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, right.

[Bob Kevoian]

Actually has. I don't think anyone actually has. I think it's just legend, really.

[Josh Arnold]

Someone has.

[Chick McGee]

Someone has done. But there's a frat boy somewhere in a frat house.

[Bob Kevoian]

Can you imagine?

[Josh Arnold]

This is when you go number two in the.

[Bob Kevoian]

In the tank.

[Josh Arnold]

In the tank. Not the actual.

[Chick McGee]

And I love frat boys. Don't get me Wrong man.

[Bob Kevoian]

[Josh Arnold]

Are you aware of anyone who's ever done one, Jeff?

[Oscar]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Why would you do it? Does it clog everything up?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, it's gonna. But your.

[Oscar]

Your clean water is coming into the tank will no longer be clean for

[Bob Kevoian]

a while and you'll.

[Pat]

Quite a while.

[Bob Kevoian]

You'll wonder what the hell's going on.

[Chick McGee]

What's that smell?

[Bob Kevoian]

I didn't do anything. And the bowl's full of boy. Let's see. Dear radio legends, as a longtime listener, I know that you often talk about scientific. Scientific terms for groups of animals. My favorite has always been a mob of kangaroos until I saw this posted on Instagram. A group of a certain alternative lifestyle are called a militia. Etheridge.

[Josh Arnold]

Here comes the militia.

[Bob Kevoian]

Anybody? Anybody? That's from Gary in Iowa.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, Gary. Will you behave yourself?

[Bob Kevoian]

Gary's naughty. He talks with his guitar, I guess.

[Oscar]

Speaking of animals and groups. Dear Bob and Tom. The leader of a school of sturgeon is called a sturgeon general. That's from Spencer Stewart in Monroe, Ohio.

[Josh Arnold]

Good to know.

[Oscar]

Yeah, I had no idea. Thanks for filling me.

[Bob Kevoian]

All I'm thinking is if Tom had read that letter, I would not have laughed. I don't know why. I don't know why.

[Chick McGee]

You guys fish this weekend? Anybody?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Catch anything?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah. The biggest, I think was a 308.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Pat]

What is that?

[Bob Kevoian]

What is that?

[Chick McGee]

Not bad at all.308.

[Bob Kevoian]

Like a keyboard.

[Jim Rome]

What's what?

[Bob Kevoian]

No, that's 808.

[Pat]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, man. To get. To catch an 808 would be something. Really?

[Bob Kevoian]

What is £30 8 ounces?

[Josh Arnold]

£3 and.08. I don't remember what set if I had it.

[Pat]

What's your biggest?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, my. My five pounds. Oh, so not.

[Oscar]

Not.

[Pat]

It's not too bad.

[Josh Arnold]

The chick. It's the Chick Magee method. Not too small. Not too.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, you don't want. You don't draw attention. You want to have a good time.

[Chick McGee]

Do you keep a log of the fish?

[Josh Arnold]

Like, I just remember my PBS personal best.

[Chick McGee]

I understand.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, you really know all the lingo, don't you?

[Pat]

Yeah, I wouldn't have figured out pb.

[Chick McGee]

I didn't know if you kept a log like Saturday, June 20th, caught a three pounder. You know that kind of.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't.

[Chick McGee]

Fish log?

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Do you make that? I bet they do.

[Bob Kevoian]

Do you wrap your own lures and stuff? Are you that. To that level? You have like one of those jeweler mirrors that you can really do fly fishing.

[Pat]

Flies.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, but you can also make your.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, you can tie skirts onto jigs and stuff like that. So. Yeah, I mean, you can.

[Chick McGee]

You mean the bass? Like, they're, like they're.

[Pat]

Look at that.

[Chick McGee]

Dressed up.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

On the weekends, it's lonely there in the water.

[Oscar]

What were you throwing there this weekend, Josh? A little whopper plopper. You walking the spook? What are you doing out there?

[Josh Arnold]

I threw a. The only top order. Oh, I got a great frog bite yesterday. Oh, yeah? Yeah. That's exciting.

[Oscar]

Those are the best.

[Josh Arnold]

So you just. It's a frog looking thing. It looks like a frog.

[Unidentified Singer/Performer]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

And you just hop it a little bit over some plants and water.

[Pat]

Did you catch something on that?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Pat]

Those are fun.

[Josh Arnold]

A big bass. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, my.

[Oscar]

They hit it hard, baby. They hit it hard.

[Bob Kevoian]

What about walking the spook? What'd you say?

[Josh Arnold]

That's a walking. A cane. A top water. It's. It just looks almost like a hot dog.

[Bob Kevoian]

Huh.

[Josh Arnold]

You know, and then not. Not colored like a hot dog, but it's. And then it has two treble hooks, and you can. The technique is you make it go like this, and it kind of represents a dying shad, that kind of thing.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, the fish almost have no chance.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, they can't help themselves.

[Bob Kevoian]

You have to bite on that.

[Pat]

Like Thanksgiving dinner on the water.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yes.

[Chick McGee]

You think there's a place down underneath the water where the fish have all these lures and there's like a chart. Do not. Yeah.

[Pat]

This one got.

[Jim Rome]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Fish warning. Today's warning.

[Oscar]

Some of these, Christy, they have scuba divers who will go down and find, like, a log in, and there will be 300 lures hooked to this log, and they'll take them all off and take them up, clean them and sell them.

[Chick McGee]

Are you serious?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Oscar]

It's hilarious when you see the pictures.

[Bob Kevoian]

Also go and resell golf balls probably in the water. Yeah, I bet they do.

[Oscar]

Me and my brothers used to do that as kids. We would go and driving, right. Or to the coarse firehouse with potato sacks and fill them full of balls and put them in egg cartons and bring them back and sell them potato sacks.

[Pat]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

You know how you seem a lot older than me?

[Bob Kevoian]

What? A potato sack.

[Oscar]

Like just the net that the potatoes come in, because you could, like, drag it and all the soot would go through it. You would have the balls.

[Chick McGee]

You weren't actually scuba diving in the pond.

[Oscar]

You were, like, knee deep.

[Chick McGee]

Ah, gotcha.

[Bob Kevoian]

I bet the potato industry dismayed that they use their sacks. Perfect for straining golf balls off the bottom of the lake.

[Josh Arnold]

The burlap lobbyist standing on the congress steps.

[Bob Kevoian]

We're trying. They're not buying our potatoes for to eat them.

[Christopher]

That's it for another Bob and Tom show. Extra. Catch us on itunes, Google play and stitcher for Bob and Tom. Extra. This is Christopher. Take care, everybody.
