He's got it all today. And he's going to play all three at once. I would like to see that with.

[Josh Arnold]

Cymbals on my knees.

[Kristi Lee]

That guy was great.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you remember? Yeah. We brought in Josh, always wanted to see a one man band guy. The guy was really good.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, real good.

[Tom Griswold]

We got a letter and this is going to involve a ukulele, Pat.

[Kristi Lee]

All right, sir.

[Tom Griswold]

It says, dear Pat Godwin Perrin and everybody else on the Bob and Tom Show. Well, thank you very much. I recently volunteered to ring the bell for the Salvation Army.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, nice of you.

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And this gets back to our discussion earlier about nobody carrying. Nobody carrying cash. Yeah, see, now I, I like putting. I like putting cash in there. So.

[Kristi Lee]

Really, is this a bad thing? No. No more cash.

[Tom Griswold]

No, it's just.

[Kristi Lee]

Are you against it?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I, I don't use cash much myself, but I, I like I said when I went to the. The other night, I sent Finn off to get some popcorn and they didn't take cash.

[Kristi Lee]

What played? Did you go see?

[Tom Griswold]

I went to see Hamilton.

[Kristi Lee]

Oh, man, that was a great show. Isn't that a great show, Tom?

[Tom Griswold]

This is the fourth time I've seen it. I can't get over the love it, the music, the, the. I'm not much of a rap fan, but I did enjoy it.

[Bob Kevoian]

So glad you enjoy it.

[Tom Griswold]

The lighting, the dancing was great.

[Kristi Lee]

Yes, sir.

[Bob Kevoian]

Why don't you go see it so I don't have to?

[Tom Griswold]

Yep, there's a lot of venom over there today. What's the problem? I don't know. Could I get back to our letters? Whenever I try to read a letter, I can't get through it. I wonder whose fault that is.

[Kristi Lee]

I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

Let's see. This is. Rich from Iowa, wrote, I volunteered to ring the bell for the Salvation Army. I decided to bring along my ukulele and sing and play some Christmas songs. About 10 minutes into playing, a man walked up to me and in a low, gruff voice said, a little ukulele goes a long, long way. I took the hint. Merry Christmas. I put my ukulele away and just rang the bell. Could you have Pat sing his song?

[Josh Arnold]

Got a ukulele. My wife says I press play it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, this was.

[Bob Kevoian]

You know, we've been waiting three days for this.

[Kristi Lee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I wrote him a note last night. Bring your ukulele.

[Kristi Lee]

Oh, my God.

[Josh Arnold]

Take two, a little ukulele.

[Kristi Lee]

How embarrassing.

[Josh Arnold]

We'll get through it as a group. God. Ukulele Wakiki. My wife says I play it too frequently on the beach in my room. All she has to say is, a little ukulele goes a long, long way. But a little ukulele is fun to play. I pick it up each and every day. I'm not that good. So my wife will say, a little ukulele goes a long, long way. I strum it in the morning, I pick it at night even though I can't get the fingering right. Then my wife got up, took my ukulele and went out to the hotel balcony. You know, little UK ukulele goes a long, long way from the 14th floor to the Manalua Bay. My wife's got quite an arm, I have to say. A little ukulele goes a long, long way.

[Dave]

Very nice.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, Alan, that's a take. We got it this time. That's a take.

[Josh Arnold]

Edit that first one.

[Bob Kevoian]

That is playing a ukulele essentially the same as playing a guitar.

[Josh Arnold]

It's not the same. Yeah, it's got the same four strings, and it doesn't have the other two. And it's a whole different key.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, fingering.

[Kristi Lee]

I gotcha. And fingering is very important.

[Tom Griswold]

And you can put that away till next Christmas.

[Dave]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you have a Christmas song that involves the ukulele?

[Josh Arnold]

I do not.

[Tom Griswold]

Is there one? Well, there's that. Was that a Dean Martin who had the big hit with. Oh, it's Bing.

[Kristi Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Dave]

Speaking of hits, can we play that Albert King song, Santa Want Some Loving?

[Tom Griswold]

Did you find that?

[Kristi Lee]

I don't see it.

[Dave]

Jason said it was on your board.

[Tom Griswold]

What is this?

[Kristi Lee]

He's a dirty liar. Oh, there it is. Here it is.

[Tom Griswold]

Ready? Here it goes. Like it already?

[Dave]

It's good.

[Kristi Lee]

Hey, Tom, there's a lot of intro to this.

[Tom Griswold]

Nice bass lyrics. Oh, there it is.

[Dave]

This is a great. I guess Leonard Skinner did a version of this. Thanks, cj.

[Jeff Oskay]

I'm in the kitchen cooking and the cheering upstairs asleep it's time for old Santa Claus to make his midnight cream. Santa Claus want some love and yeah, now Santa Claus wants some love Santa.

[Kristi Lee]

[Jeff Oskay]

And the shelves on the shelves are standing around with Monopoly money. Oh, man, if that ain't Christmas, I tell you what.

[Kristi Lee]

Nearly 3,000 people gathered in D.C. to help break the Guinness World Record for the most couples kissing underneath the mistletoe.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Dave]

Did we have this yesterday?

[Bob Kevoian]

We did.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. But now it's an official record, right? It was an official record yesterday, but.

[Kristi Lee]

He didn't hand it to me.

[Dave]

Gotcha.

[Kristi Lee]

I went ahead and did it. Now it's official. It's true. It's absolutely true. According to the Downtown D.C. business Improvement District, which organized the attempt, a total of 1435 couples. That's 2,870 people. Wow. Yeah. Simultaneously kissed for five seconds underneath the national mistletoe and made this noise.

[Bob Kevoian]

Suck my tongue.

[Kristi Lee]

National missile toe. Suck my tongue.

[Josh Arnold]

You've done that. Right.

[Kristi Lee]

The national missile tows a 10 foot wide installation suspended 30ft in the air. Cost $9 billion. Guinness World Records representatives were on site to verify the successful attempt which beat the previous record of 480 couples.

[Tom Griswold]

Christy.

[Dave]

Hey. The naked Christmas tree is the latest holiday decor trend causing friction online.

[Bob Kevoian]

Is that a lack of decoration?

[Dave]

Yep. Celebrities like Victoria Beckham and Khloe Kardashian have been opting to put only lights on their trees and no ornaments.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think this is okay.

[Kristi Lee]

Wait a minute. What's sourpuss doing?

[Dave]

She's just putting lights on her tree and no ornaments.

[Kristi Lee]

There's no joy.

[Tom Griswold]

Social media, push your lips together.

[Kristi Lee]

I'm Victoria Beckham.

[Dave]

Social media.

[Bob Kevoian]

I Have anus lips. Does she have anus lips?

[Kristi Lee]

They call me butt face.

[Josh Arnold]

She does, yeah.

[Dave]

Jesus. Social media sour.

[Kristi Lee]

Is she not sour?

[Tom Griswold]

Very.

[Dave]

I thought that until I watched the documentary and now I have a different opinion.

[Kristi Lee]

What's the documentary? Is it her?

[Dave]

It's on Netflix, I believe.

[Kristi Lee]

Does Dave talk a lot during the documentary?

[Tom Griswold]

Were you tied to a chair? You chose to watch it?

[Dave]

I actually chose to watch it.

[Tom Griswold]

You know when they're. When you're taking your last breath, I'm sure you'll say to yourself, well, I'm glad my loved ones are here. I'm sure that I didn't miss the Victoria Beckham bio.

[Dave]

She's quite successful business.

[Josh Arnold]

Is it called banger like Beckham and.

[Kristi Lee]

Correct me or not, isn't this an accurate portrayal of David Beckham's voice?

[Dave]

It is, yes.

[Kristi Lee]

I love you, posh. Make love to me. Make love to me. Grab my wang.

[Dave]

I believe there is one scene while they're in the kitchen and David goes. Offers her some. Offers her some chocolate.

[Kristi Lee]

Would you like some chocolate?

[Dave]

Yes. I haven't had chocolate in years. You know that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, I'm with you, Tom.

[Josh Arnold]

Good God.

[Kristi Lee]

That'S just what I want in a bar. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So, I'm sorry. So the naked Christmas tree is what?

[Dave]

Is just the lights.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, I see.

[Bob Kevoian]

But at least there are lights.

[Dave]

Low social media users, however, are divided, some arguing that minimalistry is elegant, practical, peaceful, and for some more affordable, I.

[Bob Kevoian]

Have a brutalist Christmas tree. It's just cinder blocks stacked rectangle.

[Tom Griswold]

You still have that boob? The artificial boob topper detractor saying unfinished and joyless.

[Dave]

We should put our Christmas trees online for everybody and then see if they can match the tree with the person.

[Kristi Lee]

Like, man, you know what I meant to tell you. Shut up.

[Tom Griswold]

Isn't the original. What are they calling these? I'm sorry? Minimal trees.

[Dave]

Minimalistic trees.

[Kristi Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

The naked tree isn't the Charlie Brown. Pretty much, yeah.

[Dave]

Pretty much.

[Bob Kevoian]

Dressed up real nice.

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Linus strengthens it with his blanket there.

[Dave]

Yeah.

[Kristi Lee]

How does he do that? And he just goes over and he goes, tree. Yeah, yeah, it's beautiful.

[Dave]

Detractors say it looks unfinished and joyless.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no. Come on.

[Dave]

Etiquette expert Jacqueline Whitmore.

[Bob Kevoian]

Can you imagine?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, my God.

[Bob Kevoian]

Speaking to that.

[Kristi Lee]

You know, a lot of people change nothing tonight.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm ironing my fancies.

[Kristi Lee]

That's right. So many people have called me a difficult. I don't know where they're getting.

[Tom Griswold]

It's minimal tree. Got it.

[Kristi Lee]
