Ally Breen
What the hell does that mean?
Christopher
I don't get it either. Georgia o' Keefe would occasionally have art.
Ally Breen
I'm smart and make jokes.
Christopher
I just got all Smith. That's a barn door at a distance. I thought it was. Some artichokes are sometimes represented. Is that an emoji thing?
Ally Breen
Real vaginal.
Christopher
No, no. But they could be. Georgia, don't keep painted as a vagina. A lot of flowers.
Ally Breen
She liked them.
Christopher
Yeah. Like looks like the front of an edge. Wait a minute. Hold on. Hold it. I think. I think we all like them, right? Sure. There we go. There it is. There it is.
Ally Breen
Just when I thought my intro couldn't get worse.
Christopher
Please, Ally, we're going to get to sexy time here in just a second, but we have an email from a listener. I hope Tom can update you like he did us on the advancements in travel that have been made recently in Tom's world. Ali, I made this observation because I was at the airport in Denver for like four hours the other day and I know. And then when I. You know those. When you're getting a plane and they have to. What's it called? Gate. Check your bag.
Ally Breen
Yes.
Christopher
And so they grab your. So then when you get off the plane in the jetway, there's like. There's like eight. Everyone has. Everyone has the same suitcase. I have. You stutter. Everybody has. They're those things with four wheels on.
Ally Breen
Everyone has the same suitcase. I have is what he said.
Christopher
I'm the last one on board. I didn't know. He came in here today and said. Did you. Have you seen these. These carry ons and have four wheels on the bottom of it. It changed my life.
Ally Breen
Yeah. They've never seen.
Christopher
And then halfway.
Ally Breen
That's amazing.
Christopher
Halfway through the trip I. When I got on another plane and I looked and if you flip them around to the side, hang on to.
Ally Breen
Yourself, you can also.
Christopher
You can drag them behind you. So you can. So you can put enough. You can put another bag on that pull up thing.
Ally Breen
Well, you can put another bag on the pull up thing and still roll them.
Christopher
Isn't he adorable, Allie?
Ally Breen
Yeah, yeah. This is insane. It's like he just been around for 10 years. It's like he just woke up from a coma.
Christopher
So. Ally, now I did do a little bit of research. My friend Alan explained something to me. So I wanted to make sure it was correct. Oh, that blow hard. This is. This is actually quite fascinating. Did you know that? I bet it's not. Man was on the moon. Remember what year that happened.
Ally Breen
76.
Christopher
No, no, no way.
Ally Breen
Earlier.
Christopher
Yeah.
Ally Breen
72.
Christopher
Yeah. Nope.
Ally Breen
69. 69.
Christopher
Just remember, moon in your face. 69.
Ally Breen
There we go.
Christopher
In any event, the first patent on wheels on a suitcase came after that. Wheels on a suitcase, two bits. Wheels on the suitcase. Go round it. Round, rounded.
Ally Breen
Dear Tom, whoever came up with that should get the Nobel Peace.
Christopher
This is from Matt. Dear Tom, I'm a fan of wheels on luggage until. Until hell is wrong with me. Until the baggage handlers toss a brand new chunk of checked luggage into or out of an airplane and snap a wheel off, making it completely effing useless as a rolling suitcase. On a recent two week week trip to Florida, I had bought my son some nice expensive luggage that I felt would last him a lifetime. Oh, so nice that the wheel broke off and it got thrown once, huh? Yeah. Good stuff. Did they spell Louis Vuitton right? That those two words are not in this letter? 250 bucks down the drain, Tom. So be careful how you advance to this newfangled technology. Wow. With the wheels. But anyway, Ali, the first patent for the wheel suitcase. Bernard Seydou, as we know, in 1970. That. Amazing.
Ally Breen
Ah, amazing. Very nice. And I guess it's debatable to a lot of people if we did put a man on the moon, so you can't use that. That's fair, Ally. Good one. Exactly.
Christopher
Let her speak. In fact, I'm a suitcase wheel denier.
Ally Breen
There's a whole bunch of you guys.
Christopher
Out there dragging bags. But I mean, it's a flat suitcase is what I think. But there are certain things you kind of go, geez, why didn't we think of that 40 years ago? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Is it. Maybe it's wheel technology. I don't know. But I remember back in the day in which all you, the only. Christy and I were talking about this. The stewardesses at the time, flight attendants now would have. They would have those little. That little rack that they.
Ally Breen
Little. Yeah, the little luggage board they would.
Christopher
Lash them to and.
Ally Breen
Yep. Yeah. You know what they're still missing, though, because the four wheels that spin around, when you put it, like in a car or something in the back, it's, you know, rolls all over the place on a hill. But someone needs to make a lock for the wheels. Does that exist?
Christopher
I don't know. You know what I mean?
Ally Breen
Because the wheels are. Yeah. Because I've had that. Where you're on a hill and your suitcase just rolls away from you.
Christopher
Sure.
Ally Breen
Or, you know, in the back of a car.
Christopher
Can't you just put it.
Ally Breen
Still could use some updating.
Christopher
Can't you put it. Put it flat on the side? Well, in the car, yes. But when you're. I. Yeah, I kind of see what you're saying.
Ally Breen
Okay, well, if you're standing there, we.
Christopher
Want to talk about heehaws and woos. That's what I call maybe some people. He and Shein or he and he and she.
Ally Breen
Yeah. What do you got for us? All of the above.
Christopher
Allie Breen is in New York City and I can tell you're in your apartment. You've got your. Is that a different pair of glasses?
Ally Breen
It is very observant. I got another pair of glasses a little bit smaller. There's a little bit of a. Oh, I guess it's on the inside. They're multicolored. Are you wearing your bikini top? No, it's a sundress. It looks like a bikini. I thought that when I put this on. We are having a heat wave, but it's not that bad.
Christopher
Okay, now do. Is it conducive to cooling off to not wear underwear?
Ally Breen
What? You know you want to wear underwear. You want cotton to kind of wicken it. Yeah.
Christopher
Okay.
Ally Breen
Yeah. Underwear for girls is pretty tiny. We don't wear big underwear like you guys do. Yeah, but your dress would stick down there. You don't want that.
Christopher
I don't.
Ally Breen
Yeah.
Christopher
Wear dresses. Except on Friday nights. Okay, let's get to our first letter. What's up?
Ally Breen
Dear Allie, my wife started getting Botox and fillers a few years ago, and now she's doing so much. She's getting Lauren Sanchez face. I tell her she looks beautiful regardless, but it doesn't stop her. What can I do to get this under control?
Christopher
Show her pictures of. There. There are. That can do a lot of damage. Is Lauren Sanchez. Cat lady. Who is that?
Ally Breen
That's. She's Jeff Bezos's wife.
Christopher
Oh, boy. I wouldn't be. I. I am so not into that. Not be able to pick her up. Did you hear the chorus of witches over here? I heard the coven.
Ally Breen
Yes. Hey. No, but it's. It's very clear that she's had a lot Botox and filler. Yeah, that's such.
Christopher
Well, ladies, you could answer this. What's the best way for a guy to tell you? Even let's say it's too much makeup.
Ally Breen
You look like an idiot. Just tell her that.
Christopher
You know damn. Well.
Ally Breen
Here's the thing. It's just like when you're tanning, you like you're never tan enough. Once you start and you're like, oh, I gotta keep going. Keep going. And eventually you're like, dude, you look weird.
Christopher
That's right. If you don't stop it, I'm gonna cut your face off. So how would you like to hear a guy say, I want them to.
Ally Breen
Hold up a picture of what I should look like and what I have looked like before. And they're like, now you look like this. Yes. Which means you look like this. Yeah. You really give me visual examples. I am with Alsman on this because I had Botox for 10 years, and I didn't realize how different I looked until I stopped doing it and go, okay, I looked. I look nuts. Like, there were times it was so clear and my face was so tight, I didn't even look like myself.
Christopher
So what would you tell this guy to say?
Ally Breen
I would say, hey, babe, look at this. This was a picture of us on vacation, and we were. We were having a good time. And look how beautiful you are. You're starting to not look like you. Oh, find a friend that's doing the same thing. Find one of her friends. Like, you know how Rebecca looks like this? Ugh, yeah. Dog her friend so then she doesn't try to compete with her.
Christopher
So you're saying hold a picture next to your face and go, ugh, I want you to look like I want you. No. So you want a pic. He holds a picture next to you. You want to look like this. Yeah, it's a picture of that Sydney Sweeney bitch.
Ally Breen
No, the picture of her. Yeah, that would be.
Christopher
Oh, I misunderstood. Sor. Sydney Sweeney's broken through Tomville.
Ally Breen
It's impressive. Well, he could actually use the Lauren Sanchez picture. He's already using her as an example because that's what was going on the Internet. It's like, she looked gorgeous. She looked like Megan Fox when she was younger. And now she looks like every other cat lady. Kind of like every other woman that does Botox and filler. That's all the same face, except she.
Christopher
Can poop out money.
Ally Breen
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Christopher
I like to wipe with $100 bills.
Ally Breen
That's true. That's where it's really dangerous if you have that addiction and all the money in the world. My God. Yeah, you'll. Yeah, that's.
Christopher
Unfortunately, she was much prettier before. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm not. I don't need to judge her now, but. Yeah, I'm glad you told me to. I'm just like she was. Yeah, I prefer before. Yeah.
Ally Breen
Do guys prefer women natural rather than all I do.
Christopher
I always tell the same story. My sister. You sure do. My sister. Thank you. My sister is 81 and she still occasionally does gigs modeling.
Ally Breen
She's gorgeous.
Christopher
Wow. And she's. She's never had any place. Yeah. Yeah.
Ally Breen
That's great.
Christopher
She.
Ally Breen
Wow.
Christopher
But, you know, if you. But if you need it, if it makes you feel better, go for it.
Ally Breen
Oh, yeah.
Christopher
Conversely, I had a friend in high school and this guy had had an issue with his nose, and he finally got a rhinoplasty. He had no idea you could breathe through your nose. Wow. So that's definitely helped.
Ally Breen
Well, yeah, that. Of course.
Christopher
But at the same time, they. So he was stupid. They took out the. What was the. What is it? The Cyrano de Bergerac quality? Sure, yeah. Sort of. His nose was. The extra schnoziness. His nose was large and took a left turn about halfway past the first nostril.
Ally Breen
God. The nose to him was what stuck suitcase wheels were to. Tom.
Christopher
Yeah. Like, what the hell? Amazing. If you're just joining us, we're talking with the lovely Ally Breen, and she likes to help others with their love lives. How's yours going, by the way?
Ally Breen
Good. Same old, same old. Nothing too exciting or new to report.
Christopher
Does he have tattoos?
Ally Breen
None. Nope. Neither one of us do.
Christopher
Okay. Because I was gonna say, should he die, we can tell you where to get the tattoo turned into a framed picture. We. That in the news this morning?
Ally Breen
No. Oh, that is cre.
Christopher
Or we could stay on topic and ask, what's your next lad?
Ally Breen
That's not. That's not sexy at all, Tom. That is definitely not sexy. Oh, God.
Christopher
You know what's sexy?
Ally Breen
Your animal.
Christopher
You dying and me cutting a hunk of skin off you on the wall. But frame.
Ally Breen
Yuck. All right. Dear Ally, I work in a restaurant, and there's a husband and wife who also work there. The husband hits on everybody when she's not around. And I saw him leaving the back room with a new waitress looking really cozy the other day. I don't know how she doesn't see this. And she's actually sweet, and I really want to give her a heads up. I know she'll be upset if I do, but I think she'll be upset that no one told her when she finds out. What would you guys do? Maybe she knows and doesn't care.
Christopher
That could be mind your own business.
Ally Breen
Yeah. Yeah.
Christopher
What are you talking about? Like, you go to a restaurant and the people that own it are. Maybe the guy's having an affair. What do you care?
Ally Breen
Yeah, don't get involved in that since.
Christopher
Eat your veal parmesan and get out. Yeah, I think you're all missing the point, as usual. No, the key here is blackmails. And I think, if I understand the president's new economic program. Tips and blackmail. Tax free. Time for our next letter.
Ally Breen
Eat free for the rest of your life.
Christopher
No, no, the key to this is minding your own business. Business. But, yeah, going for it. Well, hey, maybe a tiramisu every now and again. On the house. Yeah, there you go. Maybe a bottle of wine to take home. We're talking to the lovely Ally Breen. We have time for one more letter. Ally.
Ally Breen
Dear Ally, I went on a first date with a guy for lunch. The bill came. It was about $40. He went to pay it, and I reached in my pocket, as you do, and offered to pay half. He said, no, of course. And then I said, all right. Do you want me to just pay the tip? And he said, okay. I was kind of surprised and still pretty annoyed about that. It's the first date. What do you guys think? You offered.
Christopher
Here's the thing. Yeah. Give this guy. Give this guy a little bit of leeway. We're kind of. Men are kind of being told to.
Ally Breen
Yeah.
Christopher
How do I put this? Like to listen to women when they say something. You know what I mean?
Ally Breen
Yeah.
Christopher
You know what I like. We're kind of being told, hey, it's not. I think Tom had this best a long time ago. Chicks are our equals now. Right, guys? Equals now. How. How assertive to be now during. Because that could have gone the other way. She could have been really insulted. Right. If he didn't take her up on it. Y. Right.
Ally Breen
She offered twice. Let me pay the bill or half. Let me pay the tip. He's trying to, like, do the good. Mouth shut if you don't want to. Mind games. The first date.
Christopher
The second date, don't say anything, and I guarantee you'll take care of it all. I mean, it's. Yeah, so. But then, of course, you have to put out. Well, there are unspoken contracts, certainly. I was reading this article, and it was some, you know, dating this. They were interviewing this woman, and she was complaining about the difficulties of Internet dating. And at some point, if you're on your 80th Internet date, maybe it's you.
Ally Breen
Yeah.
Christopher
Yeah, maybe. I don't know. Maybe talk to a person you've met. Sorry you had to leave a tip on a $40 bill. I hope you get that $8 back sometime ago.
Ally Breen
God, you better have left a 10.
Christopher
Ally, have you ever done this?
Ally Breen
Yeah, no kidding.
Christopher
Ally, when you were grass fed. What is. What's. No, that's not the word. A free. Grass fed is a free range dating girl.
Ally Breen
Yes.
Christopher
Sorry about the grass fed thing when she was single.
Ally Breen
Reading an egg carton over there.
Christopher
Wow.
Ally Breen
What did you say when you were single?
Christopher
You're really, aren't you? If you were, you ever. Were you ever on a date and the guy left a chintzy tip, did you reach into your purse and fatten it up a little bit because you felt bad for the server?
Ally Breen
Yeah, I have done that. I've gone back in and said I have to use the bathroom and yeah. Gave a little more money. That happened a couple times when I was younger. Yes.
Christopher
Yeah. It doesn't have to be a dating situation. Have you ever been like at a business lunch and you offer to pay and for whatever reason they don't let you in?
Ally Breen
That.
Christopher
Then you look at the tip and you think, oh, geez.
Ally Breen
No, but I did.
Christopher
I come to this place a lot. I got to sweeten this up.
Ally Breen
Yeah. I had an uncle that wouldn't pay on liquor. Like, he wouldn't tip on liquor because he's like, oh, it's the same as bringing a soda, bringing, you know, a glass of wine or whatever. Yeah. It was like his. And he wouldn't pay on tax. Like, he was very. So anytime we went out with him, and it was usually a group, it was like a family thing. Yeah. You'd have to sneak back in and give extra money and be like, I'm so sorry. Wasn't that an unwritten rule for a long time?
Christopher
It was.
Ally Breen
Ye.
Christopher
But I think it's.
Ally Breen
It's kind of antiquated. Yeah. Yeah. Because it's the same with bringing a plate of food. If you bring a steak or a salad, it's the same. You know, it's so yeah. You can't pick and choose like that. You just have to tip on the bill. It's ridiculous.
Christopher
Yeah. Or not even that. Sometimes if you just go in and just have a couple small salads and a drink, you just, hey, look, this guy or this lady, I'll give extra. They're doing a lot of work. Kind. They're working. Take them over.
Ally Breen
Exactly. Why wouldn't the restaurants just pay them more too?
Christopher
But whatever.
Ally Breen
Why is it a pass? I know that's another part of it.
Christopher
Proletariatism. Yeah. Okay. Sorry. Sing the national. Burn it down, burn it down. 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.
