Bob
This is Bob and Tom. Christy Lee, Jess Hooker, Jeff Oskay, Ace Cosby, Pat Godwin.
Josh Arnold
And we lost the Griswold. I'm Josh Arnold and Tom is out.
Bob
Having a heck of a day already. Great start to the week. And Christy, we were discussing your bird feeders. Off. Off the air. One of them has been found.
Josh Arnold
Yeah, Andy just texted me and he found one of the bird feeders.
Bob
Excellent. They've been stolen by the raccoons.
Josh Arnold
Searched the woods and came up with it. So.
Bob
All right.
Josh Arnold
Get to go home and deal with that.
Christy Lee
And this is. And this is. These are actual bird feeders. This is not.
Josh Arnold
Yes.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Josh Arnold
What do you think You've mentioned this.
Bob
Is some sort of.
Josh Arnold
How is a bird feeder sexual euphemism?
Bob
I don't. It doesn't make any sense.
Christy Lee
Have you seen the bird feeders on that chick?
Josh Arnold
No, no.
Bob
You are talking about breasts.
Christy Lee
Yeah, it extends the metaphor.
Jeff Oskay
No, no.
Bob
Boy, if you're nursing birds, those nipples have got to be a wr.
Jeff Oskay
Have you ever had a girl baby bird? You do you know that reference with beer?
Bob
Once.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Bob
Yes.
Christy Lee
What is this?
Jeff Oskay
Now to baby bird, somebody is to put something in your mouth and then put it into somebody else.
Josh Arnold
Remember Alicia Silverstone was feeding her kids that way? That was a big story back in the day.
Bob
I do it with Jagermeister at bars when I get a little too much. Hey, you want a baby bird shot? Lean back. Pretty gross.
Christy Lee
Yeah, it's pretty gross with your hairy face.
Bob
Oh, yeah.
Christy Lee
God, what else is she getting besides. Oh, yeah. A little bit of remnants of the taco bar.
Bob
Yeah, I can't eat with a mustache. I just rub it into my mustache instead of putting it in my mouth.
Christy Lee
He's being sarcastic. Let's see now. Let's go that direction. We have Christy Lee over there. What's happening?
Josh Arnold
Could book clubs be the new path to romance?
Christy Lee
Oh, Josh.
Bob
No, thank you. No, thanks.
Christy Lee
What important books are you reading, Josh?
Josh Arnold
According to a Talker research poll of 2,000Americans who attend book clubs, nearly 25% say they've met someone there that they are romantically interested in.
Bob
Makes sense.
Josh Arnold
Men were notably more likely to report a romantic connection at book clubs. 38% compared to 16% of women. In fact, 45% of respondents said they would prefer to meet a potential partner through a book club rather than a dating app. Interestingly, more than half of those surveyed also admitted that they keep their book club membership private. What does that even mean?
Bob
Does that mean they don't talk about it with people?
Josh Arnold
Yes.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Bob
I belong to an audiobook club. Oh, yeah. Yeah. That's a lot of fun.
Josh Arnold
Really?
Bob
Yeah.
Jeff Oskay
They sit around each other and stare at each other.
Christy Lee
It's. If you're. It's a great way to meet women that are height challenged. Why are they short every. You know, if you want to be hanging around Little Women.
Jeff Oskay
What?
Bob
It's a little. I don't want to get mad at him because he is trying. You know what I mean?
Jeff Oskay
But not enough.
Christy Lee
I didn't realize that Little Women was also. Maybe you're familiar with the movie.
Josh Arnold
Of course. We all know about Little Women, the book. I just wonder. I've never heard of men being part.
Bob
Of a book club. Yeah, it is rare, because we don't want to read the Court of Thorns and Roses or whatever the hell.
Josh Arnold
Oh, God, that was a big one. I didn't read it either, but I know what you're talking about. My girls were real into that.
Christy Lee
Well, a book club is. I mean, it's better than going to the library where most of the men are there to masturbate with the free computers.
Josh Arnold
All right. Well, that was a surprise.
Christy Lee
Well, I mean, at the book club, you're gonna meet a woman that knows how to be quiet. Right?
Jeff Oskay
You're just knocking them out of the park.
Bob
I mean, that makes perfect sense. The people in book clubs would be attracted to other readers.
Jeff Oskay
Yes. Like, anything. Go. What? Go where your interests are and you'll find someone, Right?
Bob
Exactly.
Christy Lee
Yeah. So this really isn't like revelatory. Oh, my God. The place to meet people who read books is a book club.
Bob
I've never been a part of a book club. Have you guys?
Josh Arnold
Nope.
Bob
Yeah, I know people who are, but they're not. They're not co ed.
Josh Arnold
No, they're all women.
Jeff Oskay
It is. It's always women, usually. Yeah.
Christy Lee
So therefore, it's. It's like Josh when he was in high school and all the plays, you know?
Josh Arnold
Oh, so if a guy joined a book club, he'd be the only guy there.
Christy Lee
Well, in Josh's case, the only straight guy in the. What was the name of your choral team?
Bob
My show choir was called Flamingos. My show choir, Flaming, was called Premiere.
Christy Lee
Premiere. I see.
Bob
Yeah.
Josh Arnold
You were not.
Bob
No, we were all. There were only none of these. There were two that were maybe, but they weren't out at the time.
Josh Arnold
Okay.
Bob
I've heard since then that one did become. Yeah, one is now out. Yeah. Now, Josh, could you explain the difference between jazz hands and spirit fingers? Yes. I've always wondered the difference. From what I understand, spirit fingers are mostly a cheer thing, and they kind of. You just kind of wiggle your fingers. Jazz hands. You want to jazz up the whole hand. Oh, okay. Now, what about jizz hands and sperm fingers?
Christy Lee
Subtle.
Bob
Jizz hands and sperm fingers.
Christy Lee
That's what I said.
Bob
Yes. One involves the palm, the other doesn't.
Christy Lee
Oh, okay.
Bob
It's a very subtle difference.
Christy Lee
What is the first one called?
Bob
Spirit fingers. That's a cheerleader After a cheer, they.
Jeff Oskay
They do that. Or usually during free throws, we would do this.
Bob
Oh, yeah.
Christy Lee
So you hold your arms out. This is how I go to the grocery store. I say open sesame.
Bob
Yeah, it's kind of an open sesame thing.
Christy Lee
That's how that works for me.
Bob
Yes.
Christy Lee
Do you still do that? I do that all the time.
Bob
No, that's a good joke for the kids. Yeah. They think you're magic. I don't say anything. I'll just physically move my hands apart like a Moses.
Christy Lee
Every time I go to Target, I do that.
Jeff Oskay
My favorite one for the kids is to close one eye. That's like if they're in the passenger seat, you close this eye while you're driving, and they think you have your eyes closed.
Christy Lee
That is.
Bob
Oh, yeah.
Christy Lee
It's a great, great gig right now.
Josh Arnold
Your kids must laugh all the time.
Christy Lee
Oh, they do.
Josh Arnold
They're laughing at you.
Christy Lee
Of course. Absolutely.
Josh Arnold
Okay. Restaurant bros say it's time to stop asking your server, what's your favorite dish?
Bob
I never did.
Josh Arnold
Anyway, bon appetit. Notes that while servers often are menu experts, asking what their favorite dish is can lead to awkward moments such as the diner rejecting the server's thoughtful recommendation.
Christy Lee
Yeah, that's the thing. If they go, oh, well, my favorite thing is that. No.
Josh Arnold
Tia polite of sommelier in Chicago says it's better to share your preferences first try. I like spicy food. What would you recommend? In Philly, a restaurant manager there by the name of Maggie Cook suggests narrowing down a few choices and then asking your server for their inputs.
Bob
That's how I do it.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Bob
I'm like, I can't decide between the Reuben and the fish and chips. What do you suggest that's great? Like, oh, stay away from the Reuben.
Josh Arnold
Right.
Bob
You're like, okay, I'll go fish.
Christy Lee
You think they do a little assessment of you and going, the guy at table six. The guy at table six looks like he just smoked a fatty in the parking lot. Maybe recommend him the chili and the burger. Yeah, I don't know. I don't like reading menus anyway. But all of a sudden I say, what are some of the things you have? At least you narrow it down so that I can say, you've got to get this.
Josh Arnold
Then you go, why don't you just.
Bob
Say it's the opposite of narrowing it down, Asking, what are some of the things you have? I swear to God, I would grab the menu and paper cut you across the floor.
Jeff Oskay
Really?
Josh Arnold
Why don't you just say, all I eat is salad and salmon. What do you recommend? And they can go, well, how about the salmon salad?
Christy Lee
Then I. Then I'd go, no, I'll have the chicken.
Jeff Oskay
I work on a wait staff, and so I will go in the kitchen before the lunch rush and just say, hey, what is something that we have a lot of? Or what is something that you want to.
Bob
I always assume that happened anyway.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah, that's what I'll do. Like, if we, like if it's late in the week and we have a bunch of something left, they'll be like, hey, push this.
Bob
I always figured the shrimp's about to turn.
Jeff Oskay
We got a. Yeah.
Christy Lee
The server comes out. I like the steak. I'm a vegetarian. What are you doing in here? This is a barbecue joint. Get the hell out of here. That's interesting. Being a server is fun. Did you know that? I'm sure you know this, that menus, there's a whole science of laying out a menu.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Christy Lee
And they often put the thing they make the most money on. If it's a two page menu, they put it Middle, right?
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Bob
And you're sometimes in a square.
Jeff Oskay
Yes.
Christy Lee
And you're not supposed to stack the prices.
Jeff Oskay
Nope.
Christy Lee
Because people will scan them and just get the cheapest thing. So you're supposed to have them in the middle and stuff like that.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah. There's also a breakdown of like how many segments you should have and changing the font and the size and all that stuff.
Christy Lee
Yeah. I like it when a server will go, I wouldn't get that if I were you.
Bob
Here.
Josh Arnold
I do too.
Christy Lee
If they go, that's not their strongest thing here.
Bob
You immediately trust that person.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah, yeah. For not leading with the positive. Yeah.
Bob
Well, yeah. For not. Yeah, exactly. You don't feel like you're being lied to.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Okay, what else is going on?
Josh Arnold
Candy maker Haribo is recalling bags of sweets sold in the Netherlands.
Christy Lee
Isn't that the dead gorilla?
Jeff Oskay
No, no.
Josh Arnold
What?
Bob
That was Harambe.
Christy Lee
Oh, sorry.
Jeff Oskay
This is the gummy bear people.
Josh Arnold
Yes. And they're recalling bags of sweets sold in the Netherlands after some were found to contain traces of cannabis. According to the BBC, several people reported feeling unwell after eating from a two pound pack of Haribo Happy Cola F Z candy.
Bob
Aren't you going to feel unwell if you're eating two pounds of gummies? Anyway, Haribo is the great. The company that have the great commercials with the adults talking like children. Just the kids voices and their lip syncing like a two football players. Yeah.
Josh Arnold
For a food safety official's report, the samples were taken and cannabis was found in them. Only a few bags are found to be contaminated though. But they're recalling the entire stock as a precaution.
Bob
Why is my 6 year old playing Dark side of the Moon on his recorder? Oh, we better check the gummy bears.
Josh Arnold
And who, by the way, is the recorder people? That is every kid in elementary school has to get a recorder. That's a scam in third grade. Well, is it a law?
Bob
No, it's not a law, but that's what they.
Jeff Oskay
It's in the. It is in the music curriculum.
Christy Lee
It's a very inexpensive instrument to manufacture.
Bob
So it's a good introduction to learning your scale as well.
Christy Lee
I know, but you don't have to have an embouchure. You don't have to have reads.
Josh Arnold
Sure, but I mean, somebody's uncle is.
Bob
Making some money somewhere.
Christy Lee
You guys are both wrong. The recorder, the whole recorder thing involves any foreign film made in Canada about nature. The soundtrack has to be a recorder. And the gray leg geese attack the. Now I pat. Can you think of any major rock Song that features a recorder.
Bob
Stairway to Heaven features something like that might be a tin whistle, though.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah, that could be.
Bob
But it could be a recorder.
Christy Lee
I mean, Aqualong, the great Jethro Toll album, has a terrific flute. Much, much different than a recorder.
Josh Arnold
But right when I'm with you, Jeff. Somebody's uncle has made a lot of money.
Bob
Someone wrote something in somewhere.
Christy Lee
But they're so. I think the thing is they're cheap. They make unbreakable ones and it gives kids a chance to learn this.
Bob
We didn't have to buy them in school. I mean, this was in the 80s. So you just handed it to them. They were just. We had. There were 30 in our school.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Bob
And each class. Yeah. I'm sure we wondered why we all had the flu half the year. Tom. You know John Mellencamp's Rocking in the USA at the end of that, there's something. Recorder like going on.
Christy Lee
If I recall.
Bob
At the very end of that.
Christy Lee
That's a pretty big song, huh? Okay.
Bob
It can be rather shrill.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can only hear Hot Cross Buns so many times.
Christy Lee
Here we go. You're right, Pat. John Paul Jones, the great bass player and multi instrumentalist from Led Zeppelin, did four overdubbed recorders to make that part at the end of Stairway to Heaven.
Bob
I always assumed it was like something like a fife or. It was. Had a lot more power than a pan flute. Something that Tolkien would have approved.
Christy Lee
So it's four recorders. Yeah. John Paul Jones was always the sort of unknown secret ingredient to Led Zeppelin. A great session bass player and session player, but lots of other stuff. But I did not know those were recorded. Good to know.
Josh Arnold
Seeing you. I thought Recorder talk was going to go nowhere, so it's a weekly bit now.
Christy Lee
Now. Can you play a recorder, Pat?
Bob
That's my first instrument and I absolutely loved it. I carried it everywhere with me. I really enjoyed it.
Josh Arnold
Really?
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Bob
For like five years.
Christy Lee
Okay, here we go. This is.
Josh Arnold
I'm going to buy you one on Amazon.
Christy Lee
Oh, I have a bunch of them.
Josh Arnold
You do?
Jeff Oskay
Really cool kids.
Christy Lee
One of the songs on my hate list is Ruby Tuesday by the Rolling Stones. I despise that song. Brian Jones plays a record reporter on that. It says with the Beatles on Fool on the Hill.
Josh Arnold
Okay.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Okay. Well, so thank you, Christy.
Josh Arnold
Sure. A Maryland woman facing charges for allegedly striking a child who called her Miss Piggy on a flight back from Disney World. According to court records, 46 year old Christy Crampton struck the child with her fist and a water bottle.
Bob
Whoa.
Josh Arnold
Then Slammed his head into the airplane window.
Bob
Huh.
Josh Arnold
The incident occurred on an allegiant flight returning from Disney World. Crampton told authorities the child became disrespectful during the trip.
Bob
Sounds like it.
Josh Arnold
He called her fat and Miss Piggy can't do that. The alleged assault. Police said Crampton took the child's phone, leading to a confrontation. When the boy pushed her arm off the armrest, she reportedly struck him.
Bob
He started it.
Josh Arnold
Her relationship to the child was not disclosed.
Christy Lee
Has to be.
Josh Arnold
Has to be a relative, right?
Christy Lee
Yeah. Because you just go up some random kid and take their phone.
Bob
Wait a minute. If this is a relative, how is this news at all?
Jeff Oskay
Why is it news? Yeah, that's how she was arrested.
Josh Arnold
She was arrested.
Bob
So the family. If it. Well, we don't. We can't just speculate. All right.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. In court documents, it said. It did not say.
Christy Lee
But isn't that very.
Josh Arnold
I mean, she appeared in court earlier.
Christy Lee
Isn't that how Miss Piggy reacts?
Bob
Very much so. I mean, I think she's. She's. She goes from 0 to 10 like that.
Jeff Oskay
Yeah.
Bob
Yeah. Yes.
Christy Lee
I think it's. What do they say on the note? So.
Bob
I think this is a lesson every boy has to learn. You don't call a woman fat, and the sooner you learn it, the better.
Josh Arnold
I bet he doesn't do it again.
Bob
There's no way he'll do it again. I think when they're doing the pre flight announcements, they should play the story so that the kids stay in line on the plane. Yeah. Like, hey, we're going to slam your head against the window if you let.
Christy Lee
Them know Statler and Waldorf are going best, best entertainment ever on the flight. That's more like Nixon, didn't it? I am not a puppet. Pat, play me a song. Well, that's. That's interesting. It has to be. It has to be a relative.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. You would. Strangers.
Bob
A strange kid, man. Yeah, that's. We were talking about beating other people.
Jeff Oskay
I might take that back.
Bob
Is there a picture of her? Does she look like Ms. Biggie?
Josh Arnold
I don't know, Jeff. Are you. Jeff. Sorry.
Bob
She's a bit doughy.
Josh Arnold
Really doughy.
Jeff Oskay
No, but does she have the blonde hair and stuff? Does she look like her?
Bob
Yeah, she looks like someone who would slam a kid's head against a window. Awesome.
Christy Lee
But I'm having just left Disney World. You got to remember the level of.
Josh Arnold
Yeah. Your patients are.
Bob
Yeah. She was way done with the.
Christy Lee
Yeah. And if you're at the Orlando airport, that's always a one hour ordeal and.
Josh Arnold
Then you're on the greyhound of the sky.
Christy Lee
So yeah, can't say I blame just mention the applause from the rest of the people on the plane. Yeah, shut the kid up. 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.

Podcast Summary: B&T Extra: Servers, Gummy Bears, & Recorders
The BOB & TOM Show Free Podcast
Release Date: July 23, 2025
In this episode of B&T Extra, hosts Bob, Christy Lee, Josh Arnold, and Jeff Oskay delve into a variety of entertaining topics ranging from mischievous raccoons and the nuances of book clubs to the ubiquitous presence of recorders in education and a surprising Haribo candy recall. The discussion is laced with humor, personal anecdotes, and insightful observations, making it a delightful listen for both regular fans and newcomers.
[04:16 - 05:50]
The episode kicks off with a light-hearted conversation about bird feeders that have been frequently stolen by raccoons in their vicinity.
Bob: "We were discussing your bird feeders. One of them has been found."
[04:27]
Josh Arnold: "Yeah, Andy just texted me and he found one of the bird feeders."
[04:30]
This leads to a humorous exchange where Bob suggests that "bird feeders" might be a sexual euphemism for breasts, sparking laughter and playful banter among the hosts. They joke about various interpretations and share funny anecdotes related to the metaphor.
Bob: "You are talking about breasts."
[04:50]
Christy Lee: "Have you seen the bird feeders on that chick?"
[04:47]
The segment showcases the hosts' chemistry and their ability to turn a simple topic into a comedic discussion.
[05:53 - 08:23]
Transitioning from humor, the conversation shifts to the topic of book clubs and their role in fostering romantic connections.
Josh Arnold: "According to a Talker research poll of 2,000 Americans who attend book clubs, nearly 25% say they've met someone there that they are romantically interested in."
[06:04]
Josh Arnold: "Men were notably more likely to report a romantic connection at book clubs. 38% compared to 16% of women."
[06:15]
The hosts discuss the dynamics of book clubs, referencing research findings that highlight their effectiveness as a venue for meeting potential partners compared to modern dating apps. They humorously debate the gender disparity in reported romantic connections and share personal takes on why book clubs might be more conducive environments for such interactions.
Bob: "Exactly. I've never been a part of a book club. Have you guys?"
[08:17]
Christy Lee: "So therefore, it's like Josh when he was in high school and all the plays..."
[08:33]
The segment concludes with light-hearted remarks about the social aspects of book clubs and their potential as a romantic avenue.
[08:28 - 17:51]
One of the standout discussions revolves around the recorder, an instrument often associated with elementary education but surprisingly linked to rock music legends.
Jeff Oskay: "John Paul Jones, the great bass player and multi-instrumentalist from Led Zeppelin, did four overdubbed recorders to make that part at the end of Stairway to Heaven."
[16:49]
Christy Lee: "I think the thing is they're cheap. They make unbreakable ones and it gives kids a chance to learn this."
[15:58]
The hosts reminisce about their own experiences with recorders during school years, sharing amusing stories and misconceptions about the instrument's role in renowned songs. Bob reveals a personal connection, mentioning that the recorder was his first instrument, which he cherished and carried everywhere.
Bob: "That's my first instrument and I absolutely loved it. I carried it everywhere with me. I really enjoyed it."
[17:22]
Christy Lee: "What is the first one called?"
[09:37]
They also touch upon common frustrations with recorder music in schools, the game's mechanical aspect, and its surprising presence in classic rock tracks. The segment is both nostalgic and informative, shedding light on an often-overlooked instrument's contributions to music history.
[13:29 - 15:58]
The conversation takes a serious yet still engaging turn when the hosts discuss a recent news story about Haribo recalling bags of gummy sweets in the Netherlands.
Josh Arnold: "Haribo is recalling bags of sweets sold in the Netherlands after some were found to contain traces of cannabis."
[13:37]
Christy Lee: "Isn't that the dead gorilla?"
[13:35]
They explain that several individuals reported feeling unwell after consuming Haribo Happy Cola F Z candies, leading to a precautionary recall despite only a few contaminated bags being identified.
The hosts humorously critique Haribo's iconic advertising strategies while discussing the implications of such contamination in widely loved products. The light-hearted approach ensures the topic remains engaging without downplaying its seriousness.
[17:51 - 20:40]
The episode shifts to a disturbing news story involving a Maryland woman charged with assaulting a child on a flight returning from Disney World.
Further details reveal that the woman, identified as Christy Crampton, struck the child with her fist and a water bottle, subsequently slamming his head into the airplane window after he allegedly disrespected her by calling her "fat" and "Miss Piggy."
The discussion navigates the sensitive nature of the incident with a blend of empathy and characteristic humor, reflecting on the challenges of dealing with unruly passengers and the extreme reactions that sometimes occur.
Bob: "I think this is a lesson every boy has to learn. You don't call a woman fat, and the sooner you learn it, the better."
[19:16]
Bob: "Well, we don't. We can't just speculate."
[18:53]
The hosts balance the gravity of the situation with their trademark comedic relief, ensuring the conversation remains respectful while still engaging listeners.
[20:40 - 21:29]

Josh Arnold: "Men were notably more likely to report a romantic connection at book clubs. 38% compared to 16% of women."
[06:15]
Jeff Oskay: "John Paul Jones... did four overdubbed recorders to make that part at the end of Stairway to Heaven."
