[Tom]

Always need something extra, well, here you go. This is Bob and Tom Extra. Now I promised a little bit of musical trivia before we get back to sports. We have a new story, Christy, involving Smokey Bear over there. And I thought perhaps we could share that. And then I'll help clear up a mystery that has been bothering some people. Go ahead.

[Christy]

A Smokey Bear sign was stolen from outside a Pennsylvania fire station while firefighters were out on a call. Bear Creek Township Volunteer Fire Rescue posted about the theft of their large wooden Smokey Bear sign on social media. Officials said the sign had been sawed off at its wooden post. The department asked for the public's help in bringing Smokey home.

[Tom]

Now, obviously, whoever did this, I'm sure not sober. Let's, let's just think about this for a second, can you? No one sobers go. You know, we should do we should go steal the Smokey Bear sign saying only you can prevent forest fires? But this got me thinking. Is it Smokey Bear or Smokey the Bear?

[Bob]

I thought we put this to rest at one point.

[Tom]

I got the official word on it.

[Bob]

Okay. All right.

[Tom]

U.S. forest Service introduced the fire prevention mascot in 1944. He was introduced as Smokey Bear. Yeah. No, the.

[Bob]

No, the.

[Tom]

However, in 1952, a popular song called Smokey the Bear was released. The. The was added to make the lyrics flow better.

[Josh]

Yeah.

[Kristi]

Phrasing. I often do that.

[Tom]

Yeah, that's.

[Bob]

You're an artist.

[Christy]

Poetic license.

[Josh]

We do.

[Bob]

Yeah.

[Tom]

So techn. Technically, Smokey Bear is correct. But as it's described here, culturally common. Smokey the Bear. And here's a little sample of that song.

[Gene Autry (voice in song)]

With a ranger's hat and shovel and a pair of dungarees, you will find him in the forest. Always sniffing at the breeze. People stop and pay attention when he tells them to beware. Cause everybody knows that he's the fire preventing bear. Smokey the Bear.

[Kristi]

Why did he say barely?

[Gene Autry (voice in song)]

Growling and a growling and a sniff in the air.

[Bob]

Oh, yeah. Yes.

[Gene Autry (voice in song)]

He can find a fire before it starts to flame. That's why they call him Smokey. That was how he got his name.

[Josh]

No.

[Tom]

Isn't that a great song?

[Ms. Hooker]

No.

[Bob]

I think maybe one of the. You need to look up the word great.

[Josh]

Did you guys notice the quality? I think somebody took the time to remaster that.

[Kristi]

Yeah. It actually is extraordinarily clear.

[Josh]

It's unbelievably clear being a thousand years old.

[Bob]

Considering it. Yeah. Barely recording equipment. Barely existed.

[Tom]

1952. Directly to the wax. No, but you're. It is a.

[Bob]

75 years.

[Tom]

It's a great recording.

[Josh]

Yes.

[Bob]

Give or take.

[Josh]

Someone's keeping that alive and well. Someone's taking care of that. Someone loves it.

[Kristi]

What year? What year was that?

[Tom]

52 maybe.

[Kristi]

No one's played it. That's why there's no scratches.

[Tom]

I think it's a great song and I love Gene Autry does that great song. Back in the Saddle Again.

[Josh]

Sure.

[Bob]

That Smokey Bear song was mastered in wax. I'll tell you that.

[Tom]

Nobody. Josh, you're right. Listen to the beginning. Listen how clean and crisp really this fiddle is.

[Bob]

See any reason it's perfect weather? Rain.

[Tom]

Is that a. Oh, I mean, there are no pops.

[Kristi]

There's no hisses.

[Tom]

Is that. Is that an accordion playing with them?

[Kristi]

Let me hit my hair.

[Tom]

Let me. I think it's.

[Gene Autry (voice in song)]

With a ranger just to hammer the office.

[Kristi]

Maybe an old organ. Maybe I. Yeah.

[Josh]

Or.

[Bob]

Oh, there's an old organ. Oh yeah.

[Tom]

But it's nice.

[Bob]

It's. It's a fun song.

[Josh]

One of those melodica things.

[Tom]

And it's important to. Obviously to prevent forest fires.

[Josh]

Just remember, only you can prevent them.

[Bob]

Do you remember the TV commercial with Joanna Cassidy? She just started doing. I mean, she had to be like in her 20s and she was. You can. Only you can prevent force.

[Tom]

I don't remember that.

[Bob]

And it was cripplingly sexy. And she takes off and it's. It takes off her disguise and it's Smokey the Bear underneath Johanna Castle. If you had looked like me, you wouldn't paid attention, would you?

[Josh]

Gotcha.

[Bob]

Oh yeah.

[Tom]

I am not aware of that campaign.

[Bob]

As they say, red pepper hot man imprinted on you.

[Christy]

I can tell.

[Bob]

Oh yeah.

[Tom]

In any event, so it's a Smokey Bear, but we'll accept Smokey the Bear. In case you were wondering.

[Josh]

I. I want to say. Whenever somebody brings it up, I want to say Smokey the Bear.

[Kristi]

Yes.

[Josh]

Are you guys the same?

[Christy]

Yes.

[Tom]

Same.

[Kristi]

Yeah.

[Bob]

Smokey Bear.

[Tom]

Yeah.

[Josh]

Oh, you're smoking.

[Bob]

I'm Smokey Bear.

[Josh]

Oh, okay.

[Bob]

But again, so the original emoji.

[Tom]

Someone stole the sign from the Bear county or Bear Creek.

[Kristi]

Ten minutes from where I grew up.

[Christy]

Really?

[Bob]

Yep.

[Christy]

Are you responsible?

[Kristi]

So they were drunk. Everybody's drunk, right?

[Bob]

Is that right?

[Josh]

Oh yeah.

[Tom]

I mean, who would steal us?

[Kristi]

Why would you do that, my friends?

[Tom]

Is that in a fraternity house somewhere? Maybe. Okay. All right.

[Bob]

Guess where we are now. That's right. Stupid world record.

[Kristi]

I liked it.

[Josh]

You let that one breathe a little bit.

[Bob]

Oh yeah. The world's oldest person celebrated her 116th birthday last week.

[Josh]

What Asian country is she from?

[Bob]

Ah. Ah, Ms. Ethel Caterham.

[Josh]

Oh, well, this can't be Asian.

[Bob]

Lives in Surrey in the uk.

[Christy]

And fringe on top.

[Tom]

If you call it living, I bet.

[Bob]

I don't think there's any fringe. You want to go check that?

[Tom]

She's 116.

[Bob]

116. She was born August 21, 1909. She's held the record since April 30. There's a company called L O N G E V I Quest. I don't know what that is. Tom, can you help me with that?

[Tom]

I believe they keep track of the folks that are over 115.

[Josh]

What Churchill tasted like.

[Kristi]

I guzzled his custards.

[Bob]

Right.

[Tom]

I.

[Bob]

You know what Churchill told me?

[Tom]

Hang on one second. 18 plus. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 1909 plus 18. You know, you're okay.

[Bob]

You Know what Churchill told her, though? Never give up. Never, never spit. Never give up.

[Tom]

There she is. That is, I will bet, $1,000 those are dentures.

[Josh]

Looks like Bobby the brain.

[Christy]

Heena for 116. Looks pretty damn good.

[Bob]

She's a tad manish.

[Christy]

Yes.

[Tom]

Well, yeah.

[Josh]

I thought it was Eddie Izard.

[Kristi]

She has a nice smile.

[Bob]

I love it.

[Tom]

Those have to be. She's British and old. Those are dentures. There is no way.

[Bob]

And then we get one of these after this, of course. Once asked to reveal her secret to.

[Josh]

Long life, we think that was a portrait of her or picture of her just being happy, but she's frozen in that. It's actually quite unsettling.

[Bob]

When you're in person, she does not move a muscle, but doctors confirm she is alive. Mrs. Ms. Caterham told the Salisbury Journal, say yes to every opportunity because you never know what it will lead to. Never give up. And have a positive mental attitude and have everything in moderation.

[Josh]

Well, good for her.

[Bob]

Moderation, Tom, that's key. Okay, right there, Daddy.

[Josh]

Positivity and moderation I like.

[Bob]

Right. That's right.

[Tom]

Is a. An old lady.

[Kristi]

Well, I have a little tribute to our old lady.

[Tom]

Oh, nice.

[Bob]

I thought you might.

[Tom]

100. How old is she? 116.

[Bob]

116, okay.

[Kristi]

At one point she was 1, 2, 3, 4. Well, she was just 116. Imagine what she seen. Or diapers full at this point, she don't care.

[Bob]

Oh, my goodness.

[Kristi]

She's probably a great, great, great, great grandmother. Oh, she loves her wheelchair. She's the oldest person by far. Even older than Joy Behar. She loves a fugitive dragnet. Mr. Ed. If she could dance, she'd probably do the Freddy poor thing. Crap.

[Josh]

The bell.

[Tom]

Had to say it.

[Kristi]

It rhymed.

[Josh]

Oh, wow.

[Tom]

Okay. Well, thank you very much, Pat. What's her name again? Ethel. What was it?

[Bob]

Ethel Caterham.

[Tom]

Ethel Caterham.

[Christy]

Way to go, ethel.

[Tom]

Happy birthday. 116 years of British food and she's still alive.

[Bob]

Right.

[Tom]

If you're just joining us, those that have been listening are armed with some important facts. Ms. Hooker, I'm not sure if you're aware of this. We got to the bottom of. Is it Smokey Bear or Smokey the Bear?

[Ms. Hooker]

Oh, what'd you decide?

[Tom]

Oh, it's about not a matter of our deciding. It is officially Smokey Bear.

[Ms. Hooker]

Okay, it really is a matter of you deciding not really. When it comes to. Yes, yes, you would tell us if it was wrong.

[Tom]

But. But Smokey the Bear was the song.

[Ms. Hooker]

Okay by.

[Tom]

Do you remember that song?

[Ms. Hooker]

I Don't.

[Tom]

Gene Autry.

[Ms. Hooker]

Sorry.

[Josh]

So it's officially Smokey Bear. Culturally acceptable to say Smokey the Bear.

[Tom]

Okay, it was. It was a song from Gene Autry and from before I was even born, but it's not a bad song.

[Gene Autry (voice in song)]

Find him in the forest Always sniffing at the breeze.

[Tom]

Recognize this voice?

[Gene Autry (voice in song)]

Pay attention when he tells him to beware. Cause everybody.

[Bob]

Jess, you recognize Gene Autry's voice, don't you?

[Gene Autry (voice in song)]

Smokey the Bad.

[Ms. Hooker]

It's nice. I don't remember this voice.

[Tom]

And as Josh pointed out, unbelievably clear recording.

[Josh]

Really something. Yeah, yeah, someone cared for it.

[Bob]

And in 1973, I would have been 16. And I saw this PSA for Smokey the Bear.

[Christy]

I know a place that's peaceful and quiet.

[Bob]

That's Joanna Cassidy. This is what she looked like in 73.

[Christy]

But every year we start forest fires. A careless match or cigarette and poof. Fire. So the next time you're in the forest, be extra careful, okay?

[Bob]

Okay.

[Tom]

She's hot.

[Ms. Hooker]

That's really weird.

[Tom]

Hang on. Listen.

[Bob]

If you knew it was me, would you have listened? Smokey Bear selling sex.

[Tom]

They do the thing where, you know, she's this gorgeous woman and.

[Ms. Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom]

Turns out it's Smokey the Bear in disguise.

[Josh]

That's right.

[Ms. Hooker]

One in the 80s. And I can't remember who it was, but it was similar. Yeah, I don't know who actually is.

[Bob]

This is where 1973 shows. Yeah, that's the best.

[Josh]

Oh, he was almost a puppet.

[Bob]

Yeah, he was almost a puppet.

[Tom]

You know, I. Smokey the Bear. You know why Smokey the Bear never became a father?

[Josh]

Why?

[Tom]

Every time Mrs. Smokey got hot, he'd hit her with a shovel. He knew that, right?

[Bob]

I. I'd always heard that. Not I. I. I haven't heard that joke as domestic abuse. Friendly, I heard. Maybe. Poured water on her is what I'd heard. No, no, no. But no, because. Hit her with a shovel. He's got a shovel.

[Tom]

You see? I mean, I'm certainly not endorsing domestic abuse.

[Bob]

No, certainly not.

[Tom]

But they were married, though. At least it's good. It's good to know that, you know, they're doing the nasty. At least that they're. They're. Technically.

[Bob]

They're married.

[Tom]

Okay. So sorry. We were visiting the sports, remember the.

[Josh]

Give a hoot, don't pollute owl?

[Christy]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh]

Oh, Woodsy. Thank you. I was just gonna ask. What was his name? I. I wasn't sure. Yeah, I like to think they're all friends.

[Christy]

No, I have.

[Josh]

And Woodsy and What was the slogan? Give a hoot, don't pollute.

[Christy]

You remember that, don't you?

[Josh]

All pretty good programs.

[Bob]

Yeah.

[Ms. Hooker]

Seem like it. Yeah.

[Bob]

You don't care for give a hoot?

[Tom]

No, no, I like it. I was just trying to think of a variation on that.

[Bob]

Really?

[Tom]

Anti domestic abuse.

[Bob]

Don't hit. Give us.

[Josh]

Don't hit Smoking.

[Tom]

These Medicine Avenue people really can't really think deep enough to go. I'm sorry. Did you have another world record?

[Bob]

Yeah, I did. Let's do that. From Cyprus. Has Cypriot. Cyprian.

[Tom]

Yeah. Cypriot. Yeah.

[Bob]

He's reclaimed the Guinness world record for the most wine glasses balanced on his head.

[Tom]

And I. I protest this record.

[Josh]

You do?

[Bob]

Do we have any video on this 64 year old?

[Christy]

That's not fair. It's on a piece of cardboard or something. Or wood.

[Bob]

I don't know. It's still pretty tricky.

[Josh]

I know.

[Bob]

How much my gotta weigh. Does it say how much it weighs?

[Tom]

Yeah.

[Bob]

Oh, yeah. Okay. 64 year old Aristotle Syphilis.

[Tom]

I don't know his first name. It's not Aristotle, it's Aristotle's. You're right.

[Bob]

Aristotle.

[Tom]

Aristotle. Valor. Orator. Yes.

[Bob]

Lavoris something. 511 glasses on his head weighed a total of 139 pounds.

[Ms. Hooker]

Whoa.

[Bob]

The glasses were stacked layer by layer on sheets of plywood before the tower was raised onto his head via a forklift. You see, that seems cheating.

[Christy]

That doesn't seem fair.

[Bob]

It was on his head for 15 seconds.

[Tom]

Then did he drop it? That's what I wanted.

[Josh]

Right. Does he just kind of step out from under it? Yeah.

[Bob]

Don't know.

[Tom]

Because I would assume the video would go massively viral should all those glasses.

[Josh]

Oh, he probably just walks back into the forklift.

[Tom]

Yeah.

[Ms. Hooker]

Yeah. Does he have a towel between his head and the. And the wood?

[Kristi]

It looks like he has something white there.

[Bob]

Yeah.

[Josh]

Huh. I think this counts. That's heavy. It's.

[Christy]

Okay.

[Josh]

The headline's a tad misleading.

[Ms. Hooker]

Yes.

[Josh]

That's all.

[Tom]

Yeah. I don't know know.

[Josh]

It's unnecessary.

[Tom]

I don't know why we did it. And there's no wine in them, Christie. So no need for you to attend.

[Christy]

Oh, wow.

[Bob]

Okay.

[Josh]

Now, can you imagine the weight if there had been wine in each glass?

[Bob]

In Christie's defense, he didn't call you a wino.

[Christy]

No, he just implied.

[Tom]

Yeah, but I mean, you're pretty good at balancing drinking wine and not being too hungover to work.

[Ms. Hooker]

Wow. You were out last night all the leaps.

[Christy]

I was out last night. Went to a concert, had a Glass of wine.

[Kristi]

If you hoot with the owls, you rise with the woodchucks.

[Josh]

He's right. He is right.

[Ms. Hooker]

Is that a real thing?

[Kristi]

Yes, in my house.

[Tom]

What is it? What is that? What does that mean exactly?

[Josh]

We May Alcott.

[Tom]

Okay.

[Bob]

Rise with the woodchucks.

[Kristi]

If you hoot with the owls, you rise with the woodchucks. In other words, if you're gonna go out at night, get up and do.

[Josh]

Your job you still gotta get up and be you.

[Christy]

I did. I'm here.

[Tom]

Okay.

[Josh]

Right.

[Christy]

Good to see I'm not hungover.

[Tom]

Happy to have you.

[Bob]

You have a box of wine in your refrigerator right now?

[Christy]

No, she doesn't drink box wine. Well, that's not exactly true.

[Kristi]

What do you like the Frazier?

[Bob]

Yeah.

[Christy]

Well, the Kirkland brand, they make a nice box.

[Bob]

What is it, like two buck chalk or something? Four Buck Chuck?

[Christy]

No, that's Trader Joe's. I don't. I don't.

[Ms. Hooker]

When my kids see box wine, they call it Grandma Juice.

[Tom]

So. Okay.

[Josh]

Boy, that really tells you.

[Kristi]

That holds a lot of wine.

[Bob]

That's a whole mini series right there.

[Josh]

And then if you take out that bladder and give it a good squeeze.

[Bob]

Yeah.

[Josh]

Get the dregs.

[Ms. Hooker]

They have bags that you can take that bladder out and put. Put it in. And it looks like a purse. And it has an opening in the spout where the spout goes so you can walk into places with your bag.

[Christy]

There you go.

[Tom]

What?

[Christy]

Yes. That's amazing.

[Josh]

Just these.

[Christy]

Thanks.

[Kristi]

Colostomy bag. For alcoholics.

[Josh]

Boy, the old.

[Ms. Hooker]

They call it slap the bag. Like, you hold the bag up, slap the bag. Drink as much as you can.

[Christy]

No, I. I don't.

[Josh]

For the dips. A maniac. And all of us, that is.

[Tom]

I remember I had a. I had an aunt that had a lesbian lover. Who knows? No, she had a. I don't even know how to describe it. This gold key that would slide onto the bottom of a toothpaste tube.

[Christy]

Yes.

[Bob]

Oh, yeah, sure.

[Tom]

That she would. That she would wind so she could get all the stuff.

[Josh]

No way.

[Ms. Hooker]

They still make them.

[Tom]

And I asked. I asked my mother about it, and she goes, well, this particular aunt was a.

[Josh]

Did you just fart?

[Tom]

A woman of means?

[Bob]

No.

[Josh]

Oh, okay.

[Kristi]

Something's.

[Tom]

She said, no, I dropped something.

[Kristi]

Oh, yeah.

[Bob]

Air.

[Tom]

She said. Yes, that was it.

[Bob]

You farted on the air?

[Tom]

Yes. It was an epic episode of flashing.

[Josh]

No, he adjusted in his chair. We heard a noise. That's all I know.

[Tom]

Anyway, sorry if I was passing. Yes. I would have leaned like this.

[Josh]

All right.

[Tom]

Well, in Any event, the cost of that key would have purchased hundreds of cases.

[Ms. Hooker]

It was solid gold.

[Tom]

Yes, it was.

[Ms. Hooker]

Oh my gosh.

[Josh]

That's interesting.

[Tom]

Yeah, I haven't seen one of those since.

[Bob]

Did you see that?

[Ms. Hooker]

Yeah, they still have them.

[Bob]

Ounce of gold, 3, $400 today.

[Christy]

What?

[Bob]

What do you think of that?

[Christy]

I sold too soon.

[Bob]

That's right.

[Tom]

So the knows what he said. So the gold key for the toothpaste, it would really very expensive.

[Josh]

I'm not, I'm not above rolling it myself, but I was not aware of the key.

[Ms. Hooker]

Yeah.

[Josh]

That's amazing.

[Ms. Hooker]

It's like a, like a paperclip type design so that you can really. Yeah.

[Josh]

Holy.

[Ms. Hooker]

Push it up.

[Tom]

So you're saying for this, the bagged wine, did they like squeegee it so they get the very last drop?

[Ms. Hooker]

No, no, no. It's just so you could carry it into public spaces and not be seen.

[Tom]

So it's a bladder.

[Ms. Hooker]

It is. It is a bladder. Yeah.

[Christy]

Yeah. The bladder's inside the box.

[Ms. Hooker]

Yes. And so you take that out, there's a spout on the bladder that comes out of a pre cut hole in the bag. So it looks like a purse.

[Tom]

If only Orson Welles were still around.

[Josh]

Oh yeah.

[Christopher]
