It's the Bob.
Christy Lee
And to show
Tom Griswold
Dan St. Paul is our guest love night. Now, we were talking about the fact that you're from San Francisco and you and you live there with your wife and your son.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And you're a sports fan. And particularly I know you're a baseball fan.
Dan St. Paul
Yes.
Christy Lee
And a big Harry Carry fan. Yes.
Dan St. Paul
Oh, I love Harry Cary. I have to tell you though, we have a female announcer at the ballpark in San Francisco.
Christy Lee
That's right.
Tom Griswold
That's right.
Dan St. Paul
Sherry Davis.
Christy Lee
I went to the game before the
Dan St. Paul
strike last year and it's very strange because she sounds like the phone company lady. It's weird. It's like the third baseman is number nine, Matt Williams. Please make a note of it. And then, and then if there's a pinch hitter, it's the batter. Number 10, Royce Clayton has been changed. You know, I'm an school guy.
Tom Griswold
I can't handle this. You like the male announcers.
Dan St. Paul
Big Harry Cary fan.
Christy Lee
I love that.
Dan St. Paul
You know, I love Harry Carey and I love. And I, and I just, you know, Harry, of course, did the first baseball game ever played. You guys are aware of that?
Tom Griswold
Sure.
Dan St. Paul
Yeah. He was the only guy around at that time.
Tom Griswold
Sure.
Dan St. Paul
To do that game. And it was, it was wonderful. I got an old tape of it and I listened to it all the time. Hello, fans, this is Harry Cary. Welcome to today's game between the Bethlehem Braves and the Jerusalem Jacks. Kind of a sparse crowd here today as a plague of locusts has made it tough to get out to the ballpark you can hear the vendors though.
Tom Griswold
Hey, manna.
Dan St. Paul
Get your manna. Who wants bread from heaven? It's hot. It's fresh. It just fell hot.
Tom Griswold
Manna here.
Christy Lee
Penance. Penance.
Dan St. Paul
Our fathers Hail Marys can't get absolution without an act of contrition. Who wants a rosary?
Christy Lee
Here. Water, Water. Uh oh, wine. Who wants wine?
Dan St. Paul
Now Peter looks into Jesus for the sign. Jesus gives him the sign.
Christy Lee
Holy cow. Peter denies it.
Dan St. Paul
He gives it to him again. He denies it again.
Chick McGee
Once more.
Dan St. Paul
That's three times. And Jesus is out to give Peter a sermon on the mo. Jesus. Of course, the big hero in yesterday's game came up in the bottom of the ninth with the Braves down three to nothing and hit a bases empty grand slam. Fans, we haven't had a miracle like that since we had fishes and loaves night here. I had a chance to talk with the Savior after the game and this is what he had to say. Well, Harry Theal was on the outside
Chick McGee
part of the Tiger.
Dan St. Paul
I was not trying to make contact. First of all, I want to thank my father for loading the bases of the Holy Ghost for bringing up the double play. Back to live action. Lazarus up to the plate now. What's that?
Tom Griswold
Oh, I'm sorry.
Pat Godwin
Lazarus up to the plate.
Dan St. Paul
Who's the pitch?
Christy Lee
Oh no, he's hit.
Dan St. Paul
He's hurt.
Christy Lee
He's dead. Holy cow. He's dead.
Dan St. Paul
But wait a minute, he gets back up. That's the sixth time this week that kid can take one for the team. Abraham up to the plate now, probably up here to sacrifice. Enfield drawn in for the patriarch. And now there's some action in the Bethlehem bullpen. I can't quite make out the back of his robe. It is the big number 10, Moses just called up from the burning bush.
Chick McGee
Lo
Dan St. Paul
already gaining a reputation for that lightning fast pickoff move reminding those runners that thou shalt not stand up. Let's give it over to Steve Stone. Thank you, Harry. Fans, you want to be here this Tuesday night when the Braves meet the Calvary Cubs. It's going to be Nabisco Communion wafer
Tom Griswold
day here at the ballpark.
Dan St. Paul
All fans 33 and under get a free Eucharist signed by the Sabers. Nabisco communion wafers go down smooth, won't stick to the roof of your mouth like those cheap imitation sacraments. Sure, they cost a little more, but when it comes to your eternal salvation, isn't it worth that extra buck in the collection plate? Remember fans, the next time you go to the rail for that body and Blood. Ask for the host with the most. Ask for Nabisco. Thanks, Steve. Here's some scores now from around the league. A big upset. David 1 Goliath. Nothing ends a long win streak for the big guy.
Christy Lee
Oh, no.
Dan St. Paul
Job is on the 15 day disabled list with a bad case of leprosy. Pulled a hamstring.
Christy Lee
Pulled it right off.
Dan St. Paul
The Angels have set Lucifer down. That's a shame. When that fellow was in his prime, he could throw some heat. This year, his earned run average has ballooned to a hefty six, six, six. And here's a partial score. Sodom and Gomorrah still tied at 69.
Christy Lee
Hey, yeah, Major League Bas.
Tom Griswold
Back, baby, back.
Christy Lee
Did they have a slogan like NBA? It's fantastic. Actually, baseball, it's catch it. I don't.
Tom Griswold
I don't know.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Did you know that Take Me out to the Ball game has like 40 verses?
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah.
Tom Griswold
They go down the whole menu and it's about. It's about a woman going to a baseball game.
Christy Lee
Did you know? I don't know about that part.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, that's the theme of the song.
Pat Godwin
Really?
Christy Lee
I'd like to know about that. If you care.
Tom Griswold
If you'd like to share, we can do that a little bit.
Christy Lee
That'd be great.
Chick McGee
She's imploring a man to bring him. Bring her along.
Tom Griswold
Remember those shots you'd see of those old games? And all the men are wearing ties. There's no women in the crowd.
Christy Lee
Hats.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, they got hats, coats, ties. It's a different ball game. Wait a second. Look.
Christy Lee
That's a whole different ball game.
Tom Griswold
A lot of white guys there.
Christy Lee
Hey, we're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. He said, drowning out Tom hopefully. And this is the Bob and Tom Show. There's Christy Lee and her swell hippie chick. Top.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Christy Lee
There's Pat Godwin. Hello, there's Josh Arnold.
Chick McGee
Hi.
Christy Lee
There's Ace Cosby. As we shift back into some winter wear here, check local listings.
Pat Godwin
I'm not giving up on spring.
Christy Lee
I understand now why when you get older, you gotta go somewhere warm. I've never been so cold.
Tom Griswold
Already discussed this. Depending on your religion, you go to the west coast or the East Coast.
Christy Lee
Entire life, I've never been this cold.
Chick McGee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Is it the weight loss?
Christy Lee
Unbelievable. I don't know. I don't know, but it's Christy. I've got your.
Tom Griswold
Got your theme song for your shirt.
Pat Godwin
Oh, boy.
Tom Griswold
Christy Lee. Hippie chick. Hey, anybody want a ball?
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Is yours. Do you have a front door? Do you have those Beads when you get to your house?
Pat Godwin
No, I don't have those. Sorry. That music is awful.
Christy Lee
It really is.
Tom Griswold
I don't mind it.
Chick McGee
Am I. I guess I'm. That makes me a weirdo.
Pat Godwin
No, it doesn't make you weirdo. Just wrong.
Christy Lee
In a certain setting, it'd be okay.
Tom Griswold
I think that what's interesting about that is it's almost background music. I don't.
Pat Godwin
Background.
Tom Griswold
You know. And I know it's very difficult.
Pat Godwin
You're not gonna go out and cut a rug to that.
Tom Griswold
You're not gonna sit there and cut a rug. And it's the famous thing where Ravi Shankar comes out and he's playing and he gets this huge round of applause and then he goes. We were just tuning. That's a famous scene. What is it, the concert for Bangladesh or something? Yeah, but today's Ravi's birthday.
Chick McGee
Oh, is that right?
Pat Godwin
Really? Is that why you played that in his honor?
Tom Griswold
No, I played it out of your shirt. I just had Jason gets me some music. She's got her hippie balmy shirt on. Have you ever said that to anybody?
Chick McGee
Me, balmy, or I'm gonna ball you? No.
Tom Griswold
You've ever used that? Because that was a sort of one of those. Like the term groovy. No one really used it.
Christy Lee
Everything's so groovy now. Finally get together.
Pat Godwin
It would be too young for that.
Tom Griswold
No, but I mean, even in our era, no one. It was. It was like on Dragnet. If they had hippies on Dragnet, they'd use it.
Christy Lee
Don't you lump me in with your era, pal.
Chick McGee
Well, groovy was. Yeah. Ash in the Evil Dead movies would
Tom Griswold
say it, so I. Groovy, but to be ironic.
Chick McGee
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, he. He thought he was using it. I mean, the filmmakers were being sort of ironic.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Okay. But. Yeah, in any of it. That's. That's kind of a. Kind of a hippie. What do you call that? Kind of. That blouse thing. What is it? Puffy, baggy flooring?
Christy Lee
Tunic. No, tunic.
Tom Griswold
Baggy sleeves.
Christy Lee
Looks like a tunic.
Chick McGee
I think you got a tunic there.
Pat Godwin
It's a crop. It's a crop.
Christy Lee
A crop. Tunic.
Chick McGee
Oh, they're calling tuna shrops now.
Christy Lee
Yeah. Well, cropped. Well, what about culottes?
Dan St. Paul
I never.
Christy Lee
How do you feel about a culotte?
Chick McGee
It's very lucky.
Pat Godwin
Tunic would be over my waist.
Christy Lee
Would you be surprised to find out how few people know who Ravi Shankar is or had heard of him, but
Tom Griswold
they know who his daughter is? I do.
Christy Lee
Well, I would imagine so.
Tom Griswold
Nora Jones.
Chick McGee
Oh, I don't know that. I knew that.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Really? I love her.
Christy Lee
So she. She didn't take his. It should be Nora Shankar. Is that right?
Tom Griswold
I. I don't know.
Christy Lee
I'm.
Tom Griswold
Oh.
Christy Lee
What happened there?
Tom Griswold
I'm sure it's very complicated.
Christy Lee
Father.
Tom Griswold
Oh, I think he was. Fine. Singer, songwriter. Right. Although I could. I can imagine the phone call. Hello. Honey, would you like some sitar on your new song? No, thanks, dad. We're. We're trying to sell some records.
Chick McGee
It doesn't really fit. Maybe just mild piano.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I don't think it works for the song, dad. They're not.
Christy Lee
They're not Nightingale.
Tom Griswold
They're not going to do one of those father daughter things, I guess, like Natalie. Natalie Cole did.
Chick McGee
But that was nice when Natalie Cole did that.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, that worked. It was great.
Pat Godwin
It was really cool.
Tom Griswold
I just don't think. I don't think adding sitar to. I. What's the song? I know why you didn't come or something or didn't call or something. No, it's.
Chick McGee
Oh, her big hit.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Don't know why I didn't come. Yeah, probably. Hey.
Christy Lee
Hey.
Tom Griswold
That's the lyric.
Christy Lee
Stop dirty talking over there. Come on.
Tom Griswold
Is that not the lyric?
Christy Lee
You're better than that.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Don't know. Okay, well, let's. To get off that topic, we were sent this.
Christy Lee
What else did lobby say, Tom? I bet he talks a lot, don't you?
Chick McGee
You know, I don't think you're criticizing him. I think you're having fun.
Christy Lee
Oh, I'm having a great time. I'm slipping right through the door. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
In any event, I like your shirt, Christy.
Pat Godwin
And thank you.
Tom Griswold
Coming up, we will. We'll cover, among other things, the birthday of Ravi Shankar.
Christy Lee
What would it take to put me in you Put you in this new car today?
Chick McGee
Ravi man. Music not working out?
Christy Lee
No, I'm selling cars over here at BMW.
Tom Griswold
It is. He really brought the sitara to western music.
Christy Lee
Thank God that happened.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, boy. I mean, he's considered to be.
Christy Lee
Whole scene.
Tom Griswold
He's considered to be, I don't know, like the Eric Clapton sitar.
Christy Lee
Sure.
Tom Griswold
In fact, interestingly enough, he was in a band much the way Clapton was in Cream. Ravi Shankar was in Kareem, A Very, very famous.
Christy Lee
It's kind of like being the Eric Clapton of the Yo Yo. No one really cares.
Tom Griswold
Well, coming up in sports. Oh, we got.
Christy Lee
Did you ever see Ravi Shankar in. In concert or just like, movies and stuff?
Tom Griswold
I just. In the movie Concert for Bangladesh.
Christy Lee
Do you watch that whole Movie? You sat there the whole movie?
Tom Griswold
I'm a big Beatles fan. I. I saw George Harrison live in concert.
Chick McGee
Is he the guy at the end of the Monterey Pop.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Movie. Yeah. So that's the only thing I've seen him in. And Mickey Dolens is in the crowd.
Christy Lee
He doesn't look like he bathed. Wasn't a priority.
Tom Griswold
I have no. I don't understand. I know.
Christy Lee
Didn't he look dirty?
Chick McGee
Well.
Christy Lee
Well. Casual.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Earthy, for sure.
Tom Griswold
And they would. They didn't use chairs, right?
Chick McGee
I don't think so. I think he was.
Christy Lee
Get him a chair.
Chick McGee
He said cross legged.
Pat Godwin
He liked it sat on the ground.
Chick McGee
Some people are really comfortable in that position.
Christy Lee
Crisscross applesauce, Right?
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
I am not.
Tom Griswold
Can't do it. Never know. Even as a little kid.
Christy Lee
It used to be called Indian stuff.
Chick McGee
I'm with you. I hated it as a little kid.
Christy Lee
Crisscross applesauce.
Chick McGee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Me too.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Now, coming up, we have more history for you. Some big stuff. We have the name of the town in the. In. In England called London. No, no. That would be too easy. The birthplace of William Wordsworth. Of course. Cockermouth.
Chick McGee
Boy, that's having a festival.
Christy Lee
Well, you got. This is so weird, Tom. I've got weird names in sports this morning.
Tom Griswold
Oh, cool.
Christy Lee
I'll just give you one. Go ahead. The world famous Rusty Koontz.
Chick McGee
Oh, sure.
Christy Lee
That's been flying around a lot. He played for the Kansas City Royals. Baseball player.
Tom Griswold
Couldn't. Couldn't marry a red haired woman.
Christy Lee
No, no, no. You remember the Pirates.
Tom Griswold
Way too awkward at the gym.
Chick McGee
Ruby Coons.
Christy Lee
Pirates baseball player. Johnny Dick shot. You remember him?
Tom Griswold
Of course.
Christy Lee
Yeah. Amazing.
Tom Griswold
But he. But he didn't get kidded. Because you know how those baseball players are so serious.

Tom Griswold
Thank you very much, Chick McGee. Many things on the way today, including. It's hard to word this delicately. Well, let's just say bullfighting update. About that. A lot of interesting things going on in sports with big WNBA trades. But this is. This is something you probably haven't heard about in the world of sports. Unless you're. Unless you follow bull fighting.
Christy Lee
Is that a sport? Bull fighting?
Chick McGee
I don't believe it's probably considered an exhibition.
Tom Griswold
I mean, I think the question is, can you bet on it? Answer yes. We'll find out.
Christy Lee
Take the bull on the point.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah, yeah. In this. Take the bull. Coming up, comedian Dan St. Paul.
Christy Lee
That's gotta hurt.
Tom Griswold
We just heard. We just heard Dan and the wonderful first baseball game. He'll be our guest. Talking about a new book called Comedians Talking Baseball. Also fishing. Update, fellas. Stand by. You're gonna be shocked. And a great letter from our new best friend from Hawaii. I don't know what. We're gonna have these letters from Hawaii lately.
Christy Lee
Steve.
Tom Griswold
Steve's got some good news for both Chick McGee and Josh and Christy and Pat. Should we do our show from Hawaii?
Chick McGee
Okay.
Christy Lee
Why isn't it good news for you?
Tom Griswold
Well, the word I'm looking for is two words. Oh, check book. Okay. Now if we can get a. If we can get a. What's the word I'm looking Up. Sponsor a patron? Yes, patron.
Christy Lee
An underwriter.
Pat Godwin
Oh, I like how you say patron.
Christy Lee
Underwriter.
Chick McGee
An angel.
Tom Griswold
An angel investor. He's gonna have to be an angel with a big pocketbook. We could do the show from Hawaii. We'd go on the air at midnight. We're gonna come right back to these beautiful studios, the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show. I don't know about you, but I like keeping my money where I can see it. Unfortunately, traditional big wireless carriers also seem to like keeping my money too. After years of overpaying for wireless, I finally got fed up with crazy high wireless bills, bogus fees, and so called free perks that actually cost more in the long run. I switched to Mint Mobile and now I'm paying only a fraction of what I was with those other carriers.
Pat Godwin
Stop paying for wireless just because that's how it's always been. Mint exists purely to fix that all plans come with high speed data and unlimited talk and text delivered on the nation's largest 5G network starting at just 15 bucks a month.
Tom Griswold
I brought in my own phone with the same number and was able to activate with ESIM in minutes. And just like that, the savings started immediately. No long term contracts, no hassle. Do what I did and ditch overpriced wireless and get three months of premium wireless service from Mint Mobile for 15 bucks a month.
Pat Godwin
If you like your money, Mint Mobile is for you. Shop plans@mint mobile.com bobandtom that's mintmobile.com BobandTom upfront payment of $45 for three month five gigabyte plan required, equivalent to $15 a month. New customer offer for first three months only. Then full price plan options available, tax fees extra. See mintmobile.com for details.

Christy Lee
Now, what is this supposed to be?
Tom Griswold
This is from our friend Steve In Hawaii.
Chick McGee
Oh, thought it was bikini bottle.
Tom Griswold
Oh, Miss Nice.
Christy Lee
A few hours later,
Tom Griswold
Steve on the Big Island. Oh, this is.
Chick McGee
Which one's that?
Christy Lee
Yeah, what. What's the name of the Big.
Tom Griswold
It's a trick. It's like Iceland and Greenland. The Big island very small. We were talking about doing our show from Hawaii because we've been getting a lot of letters from different folks in
Chick McGee
Hawaii telling us to jump into a volcano there.
Christy Lee
A lot of nookie and mukalaka and stuff like that. And Hawaii speak, Right.
Tom Griswold
They've only got like beautiful language, three
Christy Lee
letters in their Alphabet or something.
Tom Griswold
A lot of vowels, I'm not sure. But the. The point here is for you guys, this has got something for everybody.
Pat Godwin
Okay.
Tom Griswold
Steve said Josh mentioned you need at least three weeks if you did your show from the Hawaiian Islands.
Chick McGee
That's right. We're gonna go. Let's go.
Tom Griswold
I just gonna go for a Monday morning and then head back. There's a great local comedy scene on the Big island and Oahu. Then he says, pat, you can get your comedy card stamped for performing in Hawaii. I've done all 50 states, but I
Chick McGee
haven't performed in Hawaii.
Tom Griswold
I've been there for work, but not performed on the. All right, which ones haven't? You didn't. What else? Like Delaware or all of those? Yeah. Oh, you've. Oh, yeah, 50 states. So the only one you've never done a show in is Hawaii. Yeah, I've been there for work to get on a cruise ship.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Anchorage. And we.
Chick McGee
I performed at 2 o' clock in
Tom Griswold
the afternoon before the ship left. So technically.
Chick McGee
And I did the club in Anchorage.
Tom Griswold
Okay, okay. Well, good. So there's something for you in Hawaii.
Christy Lee
Someone. Someone in Hawaii loves you, Tom. Well, that's nice. Have you heard of that? Have you? Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Christy Lee said that you'll like this. You can legally ride in the bed of a truck in Hawaii.
Pat Godwin
Oh, there you go.
Christy Lee
Fun.
Pat Godwin
Nice.
Tom Griswold
I'm not sure we can get that verified, but. I know.
Christy Lee
I think probably all bets are off in Hawaii, right? They don't care.
Chick McGee
That should be Fairly Wallace.
Christy Lee
Yeah. 85 degrees. I heard the air is so damp you don't even have to lick stamps. It just. Oh, no, it just happens.
Tom Griswold
That's where that happens. Here too.
Christy Lee
Oh, really?
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Did you ever get one of those stamps that they're pre moisten. You'll lick it. Never mind.
Christy Lee
Do they sell the stamps now that you have to lick?
Pat Godwin
They don't even sell stamps you have to lick, do they?
Chick McGee
No, he didn't say they did. You just said. He just said he licked a sticker.
Christy Lee
You look like the kind of guy who wants to make sure that the stamp's going to stick to the letter.
Tom Griswold
I don't think I've. God, I don't know. The last time I mailed a letter,
Pat Godwin
you mail thank you cards and stuff.
Tom Griswold
Well, I kind of have somebody else do it.
Christy Lee
So you've got the I see you in the wetted sponge and your writing station.
Tom Griswold
Those were the days.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Helping my mom do Christmas cards with the wet sponge. Absolutely.
Chick McGee
I'm a rebate man, so I still send.
Christy Lee
Yes, you do.
Chick McGee
Oh, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Speaking of my mom, I, I, she had this thing, I think it was called, like, Mr. Snippy. And when you're, when you were wrapping gifts, you'd put this thing in your hand, and you could grip it and you'd slide it along it. It would cut the paper.
Chick McGee
That thing's great.
Pat Godwin
Yeah. I have one of those.
Chick McGee
I have one of those in my office.
Tom Griswold
Right. Is it still called Mr. Snippy?
Chick McGee
It didn't say it.
Pat Godwin
I, I don't think it was.
Christy Lee
I've got one, I got two of those.
Tom Griswold
I got to get one right now.
Chick McGee
I know.
Tom Griswold
By the way, you know, chick's too modest to say this. I have never seen a heterosexual man pack and, and no wrap a gift.
Chick McGee
Oh, sorry.
Christy Lee
I do, I do. All right. Packing.
Chick McGee
Rarely do heterosexual men.
Christy Lee
I do. Okay.
Tom Griswold
Maybe they get drunk enough. You know? He's an amazing gift wrapper.
Pat Godwin
Yes, he is.
Tom Griswold
It's astonishing. No extra paper.
Christy Lee
Nope.
Tom Griswold
God, when I do it, it's just
Christy Lee
like, oh, you're a mess.
Tom Griswold
Oh, God. I get it half wrapped, and I just have to start cutting and cutting again.
Christy Lee
There's folding about. A man way raps again.
Tom Griswold
A lot of, A lot of tape.
Pat Godwin
You can't concentrate that long.
Tom Griswold
Good point. Now, also, of course, for you, Josh.
Chick McGee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Fishing in Hawaii.
Pat Godwin
Oh, yeah. Spearfishing. No, they do.
Chick McGee
No, I know, but, boy, that's dangerous.
Christy Lee
Well, so is regular fishing. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
I mean, spearfish, you're underwater where the sharks live and you don't have to be, and the fish start bleeding and they come.
Chick McGee
I was thinking I'd do a Tom Hanks style.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And coming up, we have sharks in the news versus fishermen. Interesting new stat on sharks and fishing.
Christy Lee
Take the sharks, give the points.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, you called it. You read it. Then it says pps. And this gets really confusing. Steve from Hawaii says if you come in the fall after daylight savings time, the difference is an hour closer. Oh, because they don't go on daylight savings time.
Pat Godwin
So it'd be five.
Tom Griswold
What is it?
Pat Godwin
Who else was it like six hours?
Tom Griswold
Utah. Who else doesn't?
Pat Godwin
Arizona.
Tom Griswold
Arizona. Okay. That's got to be a pain in the ass if you're in business. Never matches up. Okay, I'm sorry. This is. Chick will like this because he can enjoy breakfast football. Oh.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Tom Griswold
You've been in LA during.
Christy Lee
I lived in San Diego.
Tom Griswold
We had. Had.
Christy Lee
Yeah. Everything started early. It was great.
Tom Griswold
So what time does the first football game start?
Christy Lee
10. 10.
Tom Griswold
10 in the morning in LA.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
So it would be 7 in the morning in Hawaii.
Christy Lee
Something like that? Probably, yeah.
Tom Griswold
And that and the. And then the overseas games.
Christy Lee
Oh, don't even get me started.
Pat Godwin
They'd be the next day.
Tom Griswold
No, they'd be the night before.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Wow, this is confusing. So. Well, thank you, Steve. Maybe we can be Hawaii bound. I have never been there. I've certainly purchased a lot of air tickets for other people to go.
Pat Godwin
I've been there for three days.
Tom Griswold
Lot pictures of members of my family in Hawaii.
Christy Lee
I've heard that the cockroaches in Hawaii you can ride them and rope them. That's what I've heard.
Tom Griswold
No snakes.
Christy Lee
Very large.
Pat Godwin
What do you mean no snakes?
Tom Griswold
There are no snakes in Hawaii.
Pat Godwin
Really?
Tom Griswold
Is that true?
Christy Lee
You want to. That's a blanket statement.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. No snakes in Hawaii.
Pat Godwin
No snakes.
Christy Lee
Are you going to follow it up with the fact as to why there are no snakes?
Pat Godwin
How do you know that?
Christy Lee
Are you going to crazily get mad and tell it? I bet you $10 million.
Tom Griswold
Just thought I heard it.
Chick McGee
There's no rabies in Hawaii. Did you know that?
Tom Griswold
No.
Chick McGee
Rabies has not made it to Hawaii.
Pat Godwin
Well, let's hope it doesn't.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Christy Lee
There are no boy cats in Hawaii. Isn't that weird?
Chick McGee
The female cats have learned to reproduce on their own.
Christy Lee
Yep.
Tom Griswold
No crime. By the way, did you see that story last week?
Chick McGee
No, what was this?
Tom Griswold
I don't. I forget the scientific name for it. A snake at a zoo. And I forget. I think it was in England for the second time. Has given birth and there were no other snakes in there.
Chick McGee
So they don't know what the hell happened.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I'll dig it up.
Christy Lee
Couldn't a snake be in the ground somewhere and they wouldn't see it?
Tom Griswold
Who knows where they live?
Pat Godwin
Snakes are not native to Hawaii and are illegal to own. But a few non native species do exist.
Chick McGee
Ah, okay.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Interesting.
Tom Griswold
Oh, so it's like the Everglades.
Pat Godwin
They bring in the but they're tiny little things. They look more like earthworms, but they call them snakes.
Tom Griswold
Do we have the visual of the license plate?
Chick McGee
That's a Hawaiian license plate.
Pat Godwin
We're not talking about Hawaii anymore.
Chick McGee
No, no, Hawaii license plates. 13 figures long. Isn't that something?
Pat Godwin
Yeah, the personalized plates there, can you imagine?
Chick McGee
And they're longer than bumpers.
Christy Lee
The first five letters have to be a. Yes.
Tom Griswold
There's a guy in my neighborhood that has one Hawaiian. Hawaiian license plate.
Chick McGee
Really?
Christy Lee
Yeah. Do you think he's decided that you've told everyone this?
Tom Griswold
I'm not gonna.
Pat Godwin
How many people in our neighborhood have or in our area have a Hawaii? Now we know. Everybody knows.
Tom Griswold
Well, everybody knows if they see his car, it's got a Hawaiian license plate or front back.
Christy Lee
They didn't know until you said it. Now they're gonna be looking for it.
Pat Godwin
Now the police will pull him over.
Tom Griswold
That's a.
Christy Lee
It's illegal, Tom. It's illegal.
Tom Griswold
Okay, what is the current price of gasoline in Hawaii? I can only imagine.
Christy Lee
Well, you know, prices are slightly higher in Alaska and Hawaii.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, well, of course it's an island. They got to bring everything in.
Chick McGee
All the gas stations over there, instead of a number it just says.
Tom Griswold
Nope, you don't want to know.
Pat Godwin
Current price is $5.07 a gallon for regular.
Chick McGee
Okay, it might be that in California. Yeah, exactly.
Tom Griswold
It's more than that.
Christy Lee
You can collect six dinner glasses. Oh, all the service. Dinners station.
Tom Griswold
I see.
Christy Lee
So that's a good deal.
Tom Griswold
Okay. Do we have a photograph of this license plate? There we go. Can you see that from.
Chick McGee
Sure can.
Christy Lee
Yep. Sir.
Chick McGee
Yeah, that's a bragger is what you got there.
Tom Griswold
It's a nice Audi.
Christy Lee
Adept. It's the Audi wagon, I believe.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. And what state is that?
Christy Lee
Can you see I'm gonna yellow New Mexico maybe.
Tom Griswold
It's got a racy plate. Do you notice that the plate is. Christy. It's MUF dvr.
Christy Lee
What do you think that is?
Pat Godwin
I have a guess.
Tom Griswold
What's your guess?
Pat Godwin
Word would be muff.
Tom Griswold
There you go.
Christy Lee
Wait a minute. Muff diver. What the hell is that?
Pat Godwin
I didn't know if I could say that.
Chick McGee
Now, Christy, what is a muff? Don't tell us, show us.
Tom Griswold
It would have been much funnier if that car had been a Subaru and there was a lady getting into it.
Christy Lee
It's a fur lined pouch.
Tom Griswold
Softball tonight.
Christy Lee
Put your hands in, keep them warm. Muff keeps your hand. Thank you. And if you can put your hands in and flip a coin, that muff's too big.
Tom Griswold
Thank you very much.
Chick McGee
The old joke. Now try clapping. I can't. Tight, huh?
Christy Lee
Huh? Oh, that is. That is the rest.
Tom Griswold
That is a fine joke. Almost as good as the one about. I left it in the sink. Yes, that is. That is from New Mexico.
Pat Godwin
Somebody was asleep in New Mexico at the driver's license brand.
Chick McGee
Yeah, they've got that one through.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, they got that one passed.
Tom Griswold
And probably not for long. They. They. Apparently the. The various. I'm not sure what the name of that gig would be. If you work for the license branch in a given state, they share lists of.
Christy Lee
So. So you have muff diver. Okay. It's on your car.
Tom Griswold
I don't.
Chick McGee
Right.
Christy Lee
Can they. As a person.
Chick McGee
Theoretical.
Christy Lee
Shut up. Now can.
Tom Griswold
Can the state come take it back? Yes.
Christy Lee
Take it off your car.
Chick McGee
They can.
Tom Griswold
They probably could.
Christy Lee
Right?
Chick McGee
And then you'd have to get a bumper sticker just says I'd rather be muff diving.
Christy Lee
I see about. About seven ice agents in Mass coming to get down. That's what I see.
Chick McGee
They charge up.
Christy Lee
That's right.
Chick McGee
And
Tom Griswold
it's a Phillips, you jerk.
Christy Lee
Give us a plate.
Chick McGee
Give us a plate.
Tom Griswold
Don't give me a flathead. Oh, dear God. This guy's got an Allen wrencher. Okay, okay, Sorry. So send us your letters.
Christy Lee
We've got the rundown on the snakes in Hawaii.
Tom Griswold
Okay. But good to know. Now let's move forward. Here we have coming up more sporting
Christy Lee
news, more letters, of course, Michigan national champs.
Tom Griswold
But did not cover.
Christy Lee
No.
Tom Griswold
As called by Chick McGee. I believe I had that in the Orange Insoles presents the shoe in of the week. Thank you very much. Orange insoles. I've got him in my shoes right now.
Chick McGee
Man, I bet you're feeling pretty good.
Tom Griswold
I am, yeah. I'd show you them, but taking off these shoes take is too complicated.
Christy Lee
Quite a process.
Chick McGee
That's quite all right.
Tom Griswold
I need. I need my tools.
Chick McGee
All right.
Christy Lee
Did you kick something?
Tom Griswold
What happened?
Chick McGee
He did.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, and you're lucky I didn't the desk.
Christy Lee
Did you do you. You were. You wear slippers at home?
Tom Griswold
No, never.
Christy Lee
Just barefoot or.
Tom Griswold
No, I can't go barefoot.
Pat Godwin
You wear those boots all over.
Chick McGee
His toenails clack against the tile like a velociraptor.
Tom Griswold
No, I actually have put orange insoles.
Christy Lee
You have foot odor. You have a footholder problem, yes or no?
Tom Griswold
Not at all.
Christy Lee
I don't believe you.
Tom Griswold
No, I don't have foot odor problem. Would you like to smell my feet? They're currently. They're currently swimming in powder
Christy Lee
They've got to be all gummy.
Chick McGee
They sure do. Let's. Let's move on from Tom's feet.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Chick McGee
And onto yours. Yes, yes. Maybe your feet aren't doing what they're supposed to. Arches collapse, heels ache, knees complain, lower backs tighten up. Most people go, well, I'm getting older. This is what happens. Not necessarily, my friends.
Tom Griswold
I can give you a good example.
Chick McGee
Please do.
Tom Griswold
If you get on a bicycle, that seat is designed to conform to your buttocks area, et cetera, et cetera.
Chick McGee
A good seat.
Tom Griswold
Yes. Yes. You wouldn't put a two by four and bike around with that as a seat.
Chick McGee
No.
Tom Griswold
But you're doing that to your feet. When you take those flimsy little things inside your shoes, there's no arch support. What?
Chick McGee
There's like zero support.
Tom Griswold
Orange insoles caress your the bottoms of your feet much the way a proper bicycle seat caresses your buns.
Chick McGee
Yes. Pull out that liner you've got in your shoe right now. See if it ain't thinner than a Carl Buttig piece of salami.
Christy Lee
Oh, that's a good product.
Chick McGee
I'm not saying it's not a good product.
Tom Griswold
You just don't want to put in your shoes.
Chick McGee
But those are thin chipped beef and that corned beef is real good. But you need a whole package.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah.
Chick McGee
To make a sandwich.
Christy Lee
Yeah. Feet old.
Tom Griswold
And if you're gonna put them in your shoes, after a while they may smell.
Chick McGee
You might have foot odor.
Pat Godwin
Oh God.
Christy Lee
I didn't.
Chick McGee
I wasn't besmirching.
Tom Griswold
Anyone who can go through life with the name budding come out with a great product like that.
Christy Lee
Yeah. And it was reasonably priced, right?
Tom Griswold
Carl, we hardly knew ye. Back to orange insoles.
Chick McGee
But thank goodness we know Orange insoles dot com. Go check them out. They're dur durable enough for work boots, comfortable enough for everyday wear. And they're for you real people out there working hard, doing construction, being a mailman, walking. I was gonna say mail manning.

Chick McGee

Chick McGee
This is our life now.
Christy Lee
This is our life. There's Christy Lee at the news desk. Hi, there's Pat Godwin.
Tom Griswold
Hello.
Christy Lee
There's Josh.
Chick McGee
Acceptance. You can be very freeing.
Christy Lee
Except. Yes, enough of denial and fighting it. There's Ace Cosby. Hello, I'm Chick McGee@theorangeinsouls.com sports desk. I have an email. Something that will will make Josh happy.
Tom Griswold
Congratulations in order. Chick McGee once again called it. He said take Yukon and the points.
Christy Lee
Oh yeah. Had seven.
Chick McGee
Well done, shickster.
Christy Lee
Thank you.
Tom Griswold
So your shoe in fans can be very happy. Thank you Orange in souls for sponsoring the shoe in of the week.
Chick McGee
Was it a good game?
Christy Lee
Yeah, real good game.
Chick McGee
Okay.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
But Trickster, you have a letter. And it's for what?
Christy Lee
Dear Bob and Tom show. Hello everyone at the Bob and Tom show. I hope all is well. Especially John.
Dan St. Paul
Gosh.
Chick McGee
Oh, that's nice. Yeah, I'm feeling better. We're getting back on track.
Christy Lee
I wanted to let you know my name is Mark. Mark Dobson. That's right. I'm Mr. Oneman Band. Oh, nice. Mark.
Tom Griswold
Oh, Mark was here.
Christy Lee
That's right.
Tom Griswold
Love him.
Christy Lee
He will be doing his one man band all across the country. Including some state fairs very close to us. In with. With strolling the grounds with Bot the Robot.
Tom Griswold
What is he gonna. Is he. Is. Are we gonna get him to come by again?
Christy Lee
Well, it's up to you, dude. I understand you guys usually take part of your show at a state fair. I'd be. It'd be great to see everybody catch up and maybe do a couple songs on the. On the old one man band with you.
Tom Griswold
Now Josh has expressed his love of one man bands. So was it your birthday? We arranged this.
Chick McGee
Yes.
Christy Lee
Being a part of the. Happy sixth anniversary, Josh. We was my most fun performance ever. And I'm grateful for being part of that. See you down the road. And I got his phone number right here.
Chick McGee
Very nice. Well, we hope to see him again. Especially with Bot.
Christy Lee
Bot the Robot. That's right.
Pat Godwin
Familiar with Bot's work?
Christy Lee
Are you scrolling?
Chick McGee
No, but I don't know if he works exclusively with Mark.
Christy Lee
I know they hope to work together. I've heard rumors of infighting between Bot the Robot Dobson and Bot Dobson and Bot. Something about billing separate flights.
Tom Griswold
I think he's upset because our one man band friend has his own roadie. Which seems really.
Chick McGee
I put that on my back.
Tom Griswold
He was great.
Chick McGee
Yes, legitimately good.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, we were.
Christy Lee
We were absolutely great.
Tom Griswold
We were kind of wondering because it. Is it going to be kind of cheesy, right? It wasn't.
Christy Lee
It is a one man band.
Chick McGee
Oh, he's the man's got talent.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, although I was disappointed. No monkey.
Christy Lee
You want to.
Chick McGee
To.
Christy Lee
No, that, not that doesn't necessarily.
Chick McGee
More of an or organ grinder monkey man band.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it's. But it's like one of those crossover things, you know, on TV where they'll have, you know, like Jean Luke Ponty will join some country band. Electric violin.
Dan St. Paul
Exactly.
Christy Lee
You know what they say about people. Got that Tom Griswold Perrin, Mr. Relatable.
Tom Griswold
Oh, I saw Jean Luc years ago. He was amazing.
Chick McGee
You know what I'm saying?
Tom Griswold
Talking about you'll have, you'll have some. A classical musician might sit in. In a pop band, sure.
Chick McGee
Yeah. You'll hear a symphony play.
Tom Griswold
I'm just saying occasionally you'll get a one man band guy who will have a. The traditional organ grinder monkey with him.
Chick McGee
You've seen this?
Tom Griswold
Oh, absolutely.
Christy Lee
You've seen a one man.
Tom Griswold
My phone broke. I couldn't take pictures.
Christy Lee
It was, it was stellar.
Tom Griswold
I mean it would be, you know, it'd just be unbelievable.
Chick McGee
That would be a lot like if
Tom Griswold
John Mayer were to walk on the Lawrence Welk Show. You know, you've got a genius and a genius, I guess.
Chick McGee
Oh, boy, that's a lot of genius for one TV screen.
Tom Griswold
I've decided if. If I make it for my 50th anniversary in radio, I'm going to have a plate spinner on the show. Now you're saying what year is that?
Chick McGee
First off, you will second.
Tom Griswold
Yes, I mean, it's that. That defines my life. The plate spinner. And you've got that music. I love plates spinners. You never see them anymore. When's the last time you saw plates?
Chick McGee
Yeah, when demand stops, those jobs go away, don't they?
Christy Lee
What do you think the reason is that you don't see plate spinners very often anymore.
Tom Griswold
Lazy Gen X people.
Christy Lee
Is that right?
Chick McGee
Yeah, somewhat of a trick to it. Right. There's a notch in the plate.
Tom Griswold
Oh, is that true?
Christy Lee
Oh, sure, yes.
Tom Griswold
But I think.
Chick McGee
But you still need to keep it.
Tom Griswold
But it is analogous to one's life.
Chick McGee
Right.
Tom Griswold
If you don't pay attention to one of the plates, it's going to fall down and break.
Chick McGee
Yeah, yeah.
Tom Griswold
And. And you got to run around and hustle and it's up to you. It's all about multitasking, which I'm incapable of doing.
Pat Godwin
Correct.
Christy Lee
And you continue to try.
Tom Griswold
I know, it's terrible.
Chick McGee
You know, that's. That's a cleaner analogy than Nikki Glaser's. I don't know if you've heard her life as Like a gang bang analog. There's a lot to do.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, yeah.
Chick McGee
And you're trying to balance all of it.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Chick McGee
So yours is a little more.
Tom Griswold
Mine's a little more family friendly.
Chick McGee
Yes. Big news, of course, with the Artemis 2.
Pat Godwin
Yep.
Chick McGee
And I didn't see the first one, so I've been a bit lost this whole time, but. Oh, nothing for that. I. Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you were serious.
Tom Griswold
You're serious too.
Christy Lee
I think Bruce Willis was in the first.
Chick McGee
Oh, that's right. Well, Ludy writes in.
Christy Lee
Ludy?
Chick McGee
Yes. Spelling L U D Y. It's a play on his last name.
Tom Griswold
Oh, okay.
Chick McGee
So he goes by Ludy like I would go by. Very nice. Ludy.
Tom Griswold
Ludy.
Chick McGee
Ludy Grant.
Tom Griswold
Larry Grant, Carrie's lesser known brother. Just as handsome, but couldn't act at all.
Chick McGee
The Clint Howard of the year.
Tom Griswold
Oh, I love Clint.
Chick McGee
I do too. Clint's great actor and actually he can act. Yeah. Yes.
Tom Griswold
And Perth, if you're looking for a great book that's going to make you feel good, is it called Brothers? I think.
Chick McGee
No, the Boys.
Tom Griswold
The Boys, sorry. It's Ron Howard and Clint Howard. It's such a heartwarming, great book.
Christy Lee
Anyway, Ron Howard and Clint Howard are brothers.
Tom Griswold
Yes, sir. It's a really good book revealed in
Chick McGee
the final chapter of that book, by the way.
Tom Griswold
And their father's name was Rance?
Chick McGee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
R A, N C. Very awkward introducing him to Asian folks.
Chick McGee
Well, they just thought he was Lance,
Christy Lee
but I don't think his name really was Rance, was it?
Tom Griswold
It was a cowboy name he, he picked up from some old movie. Yeah, I'm sorry. Back to your letter.
Chick McGee
Ludy wants to know.
Christy Lee
This is the longest letter ever.
Chick McGee
Do you know at which Hollywood studio the Artemis 2 footage is being filmed? I believe it's MGM.
Pat Godwin
Oh, okay.
Tom Griswold
Oh, you loser. Did you watch any video? It was so cool yesterday. And when they, when they go dark floating around. No, when they go by the moon, they, they lose radio transmission. Was it 42 minutes or something? And they were interviewing one of the guys and he goes, actually this guy had been on the, on the, on the one of the space station. And he goes, yeah, we'd lose communication sometimes. And it was really kind of relaxing, I bet because otherwise you've got people talking to you constantly. Was. Ah, yeah, you can just chill for a while. At the same time you're to going, going, boy, sure would be bad if something went wrong. Right now they've got people, thousand people here on Earth that can help them with any Problem.
Christy Lee
You think they honk the horn when they go on the dark side of the moon, like going through a tunnel.
Tom Griswold
But I'm wondering if they played a little bit of a Floyd. They got out the Ghetto Blaster and Turn it up,
Christy Lee
Mr. Relatable. That's Tom Boombox.
Tom Griswold
Well, yeah, sorry, Boombox. The Ghetto Blaster Ace is louder, you see. Well, because it has to. It has to be. It has to be louder than the gunfire. You happy now?
Christy Lee
When we come back now, later, he'll tell himself, I totally saved that. Yeah, that's what I'll do.
Tom Griswold
I'm having such a nice time with you. It's. I'm so happy. I'm so happy that you're here today.
Christy Lee
Michigan wins the national. The Natty. How do you feel about. They call it the Natty. The boat, Tom.
Tom Griswold
I don't care for that. And natty is a beer.
Christy Lee
Elliot. Cadoo won the mop.
Tom Griswold
All right.
Christy Lee
He got the mop. I don't like the mop.
Tom Griswold
No, I hate that.
Christy Lee
Care for the mom? No.
Chick McGee
There was nothing wrong or negative at all about mvp. Exactly.
Pat Godwin
What's mop mean?
Chick McGee
It's something. Some parents came up with it. A Little League game.
Christy Lee
Standing player.
Pat Godwin
Outstanding.
Chick McGee
Yeah. I mean, it's like, how's that better?
Tom Griswold
How's that? Is that any better at all? He wins the toilet brush. What's that? He's the best.

How about this one in football? Leger. Doosable. That's a beautiful name. Usable.
Christy Lee
Sounds like something from Fraggle Rock.
Chick McGee

The Doozers and the Doozables
Chick McGee

Christy Lee
All for not.
Tom Griswold
Boof Bonzer. Baseball player.
Christy Lee
Really?
Tom Griswold
Really. B o o f Boof Bonser. And now another category would be the longest name ever in football that they couldn't fit on a jersey. Every once in a while you get one of those or one that. That won't fit on a driver's license. Jan Vinegar of Helsalink. That's the person's name. Also in the world of soccer, Marty
Christy Lee
Schottenheimer, before he became a coach, he played for the Bills. And the Schottenheimer on this Jerry that had to go from, like, below his armpit to the below his armpit to get it on. Back of the jersey. Barely fit, man.

Christy Lee
A nice proper tattoo? Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Okay.
Christy Lee
What defines a proper tattoo for you?
Tom Griswold
Just something that some thought went into it. It wasn't just you go to the mall and get, you know, a little cartoon character. The I. Yeah.
Pat Godwin
You've told your kids they're not in the will if they have tattoos.
Tom Griswold
Yep. And my 10 year old daughter said to me, does this mean since Finn and I don't have tattoos, we get all the money?
Chick McGee
I think that's right.
Dan St. Paul
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Certainly glad they're thinking about that.
Christy Lee
That is kind of an alarming sentence put together.
Tom Griswold
They can see that life clock is getting pretty close to midnight.
Chick McGee
Jeez, I bet Hart's going to start talking Finn into getting a tattoo.
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah.
Chick McGee
So that she.
Tom Griswold
Absolutely.
Pat Godwin
She gets all the.

Tom Griswold
Let's see, what was I gonna. There was one other thing I was gonna preview, but I forgot what it was. Oh. Coming up, we have Ravi Shankar in. In the news.
Christy Lee
Oh, thank goodness.
Tom Griswold
You're saying no one knows who he is anymore. I think they do.
Christy Lee
90 people don't know who we're talking.
Tom Griswold
Very exciting right now. The world is kind of exhausted. Right. You know what I'm talking about. You go to the gas pump. Just in general, everything's pretty rough. Let's just say recently you've been getting those credit cards built up and all of a sudden you realize, wait a minute, I'm paying 20% interest on this money. I've essentially borrowed from the credit card company. Don't have the cash to pay it off right now that can be pretty rough. And it can get to the point where all you're doing each month is just paying off the interest and trying to keep riding it. There's a way to get out of that if you own your own home, especially because for the most part, your house is probably worth a lot more than it was just a few years ago. And you can take advantage of that upswing in that part of the economy by refinancing. That's what American Financing is all about. They sent me some recent figures. This is just some average stuff. You could land somewhere in this zone perhaps on average, they say American Financing is saving their customers 800 bucks a month. And the idea is you take some of the equity, take advantage of that equity and pay off those credit cards and then also you can lower your interest rates. It just depends how, what your situation is. But see if this would work for you. You might be finding yourself not having to worry about paying 20% interest on those credit card loans anymore. It takes just a few minutes to find out how this works and what you could save by giving them a call or tracking them down by going to americanfinancing.net once again, the phone number 866-889-2611.

This comes to us from Christine. She's kind enough to write and says, does your golden retriever ever hold part of his leash in his mouth, urging you to take them out for a walk? Yes.
Chick McGee
That's always cute.
Tom Griswold
It's hilarious.
Chick McGee
Absolutely.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold

I. I don't know about. Don't know about that part.
Tom Griswold
Well, that's the. That's the. The.
Christy Lee
With his eyes.
Tom Griswold
The audio equivalent.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And then. Then down the road, you have to get a new leash because there could. There's occasionally some chewing doing. Now I have the triple threat leash that has the three loops on it.
Christy Lee
I don't know what that is.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. So when you're. If you're walking and maybe there's traffic, whatever, you can reach down and get the one lease. So it's like a foot away. Then there's a handle halfway. Then there's the handle on the end.
Christy Lee
That sounds like a whole lot of tangling.
Pat Godwin
Why can't you just grab it?
Chick McGee
So you don't have to wrap it around your hand?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, exactly.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah, the muscle. At last. It frees me from this.
Tom Griswold
Then I have. I have the clip on flashing lights.
Christy Lee
Oh, of course.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Christy Lee
You use those during the day probably as well, don't you?
Tom Griswold
If it's cloudy. So they can make sure that they see me.
Christy Lee
Certainly.
Tom Griswold
By the way, there's a really nice picture. I had some. The good fortune to spend several hours with Bob over the weekend. And there's a really great picture of Bob's dog Dopey, with Bob and I are in it, too. Bob has the sweetest dog. Like, at least, like a little, very small golden retriever. It's on our Instagram, I believe, so
Pat Godwin
all of our socials.

Tom Griswold
This is a new feature.
Christy Lee
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, it's an offshoot of the it of the letter feature. There's just no nonsense emails.
Tom Griswold
Just right there.
Christy Lee
Here's another one. Dear Bob and Tom Show. This is from John in Emmons, Emmitsburg, Iowa. Just thought I'd let you know I ran over a squirrel this morning on my way to work.

Christy Lee
Have a good day. I feel bad running over squirrel.
Chick McGee

Tom Griswold
If you hadn't zigged.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
I will have made it.
Christy Lee
If they're zigging and zagging and it's. Yeah. I feel kind of bad that they. They zag right into the front tire. Yeah. That'll get them.
Pat Godwin
Because, you know, he sits there. I can make it. I can make it. I know I can.
Dan St. Paul
Oh, yeah.
Chick McGee
Sometimes it's like, what are you doing?
Pat Godwin
I know.
Christy Lee
Mama squirrel and the baby squirrels are waiting for dad to come home.

Of a man who frightening resemblance to Tom.
Chick McGee

Christy Lee
According to Brian, he says that man was the one and only Ray Walston.
Chick McGee
No, it isn't.
Christy Lee
That's what he says.
Tom Griswold
I thought that was from South Pacific.
Christy Lee
Also the same actor that played Mr. Hand in fast Times. Times. And My Favorite Martian.
Tom Griswold
What?
Christy Lee
Not quite a doppelganger, says Brian, but in the ballpark.
Tom Griswold
I'm just reading the photo.
Christy Lee
I'm reading you the letter.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, I could see.
Chick McGee
You know what it is?
Pat Godwin
It is Ray Wall.
Christy Lee
I could see Ray Walston.
Tom Griswold
Oh, it's just that angle with long hair.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Wow. Amazing story, Mr. Mr. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Mr. Hand.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
He's the guy that comes in with the pizza and get a good one. Wow. I would never have. It's because that. In that. That angle, it looks just like me. I thought it was an AI Whatever. Photoshop.
Pat Godwin
Right.
Christy Lee
If I'm here and you're here, isn't this our time? Yes, that's right.
Tom Griswold
And he's of course, famous in South Pacific. Yeah.
Christy Lee
With the cords. Yeah. Everyone's seen that.
Tom Griswold
Well, you should.
Christy Lee
Top of mind. Yeah.
Chick McGee
I loved Ray Walston.
Pat Godwin
Me too.
Tom Griswold
I loved My Favorite Martian with Bill.
Dan St. Paul
Yeah.
Chick McGee
I never saw it.
Christy Lee
I won an Emmy. Didn't it?
Chick McGee
But I'm aware of it. I think so. I think it swept that one year.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Have you ever seen South Pacific?
Chick McGee
Yes.
Christy Lee
Not all the way through.
Chick McGee
I wouldn't think my grandparents had the double vhs.
Christy Lee
Sure they did.
Tom Griswold
Bally high happy talky talk talk.
Chick McGee
Sure, sure.
Christy Lee
Well if that doesn't say watch it I don't know what does.
Tom Griswold
Oh, it's a great. It's fantastic. I did the. When the. The duet where that opera singing guy sees her across the room.
Pat Godwin
You sit around the living room with your parents watching these things?
Tom Griswold
No, I play South Pacific in my headphones all the time. I know every song by heart.
Christy Lee
You should have heard what he was listening to today.
Pat Godwin
Something really.
Christy Lee
It used to be kitty cat on a keyboard, but this thing is like elbows and blank, blank, blank jazz. How long is this going to go on?
Tom Griswold
Jazz pianist.
Christy Lee
Great music from the sports desk via the New York Times. A retired matador has been gored to death.
Chick McGee
Anybody was retired.
Tom Griswold
Well, it was old timers day, you say?
Pat Godwin
What was he doing in the ring?
Christy Lee
This happened before a bull fight in Spain. The times reports that Ricardo Ortiz handling the bulls in the corrals of the bullring ahead of the. The Cora P When the song from South Pacific.
Tom Griswold
That's right Picass. It's a. The. It's a tribute to Pablo Picasso every year. Seriously.
Christy Lee
Bull fight. Whatever you say, Tom. Which Was sold out. 9,000 in attendance. Went ahead as planned. Included a tribute to the 51 year old BULLF fighter from Malaga.
Chick McGee
Boy oh boy. Gourd to death.
Pat Godwin
Death before the fight even started.
Tom Griswold
That's gotta see, I have a theory.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, they were getting back at him.
Tom Griswold
Probably didn't have the cape on.
Chick McGee
Oh, you gotta have the cape on the cape that they. Then the bulls know you mean business.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
The good news is if you see the video. Sure he was. Is. Was Gordon to death. But he hung on for the full eight seconds.
Chick McGee
Yes. Yeah. I mean he didn't have much of a choice.
Christy Lee
Is that right?
Tom Griswold
Well, you could. You could argue that
Christy Lee
if you'd impale yourself onto the horn, you'd ride the full hike.
Tom Griswold
This is the reason that they don't have a bullfighters senior tour. Just because, you know, they're not. Not as quick as they used to be. Maybe they should bring. Maybe if they had older bulls.
Christy Lee
Older what? Bulls? I have no idea what he's saying, stupid.
Tom Griswold
It is a Picasso themed bull fight, Christy.
Christy Lee
Yeah, you said.
Pat Godwin
I believe you.
Tom Griswold
So this guy kind of looks like one of Picasso's paintings there at the end. Got one eye over here, one over by his foot. Large gashes, guts.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Oh well I say. By the way, I say karma Bull wins.
Chick McGee
Yeah, exactly.
Tom Griswold
This guy. This guy had, over the course of his career, killed more than 200 bulls.
Pat Godwin
Oh, see? They were waiting.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
So right now he's 200 versus one, sadly dead. You see?
Pat Godwin
Stupid world record.
Christy Lee
A bird hailing from Missouri has been named the world's oldest living dove in captivity.
Chick McGee
Really?
Tom Griswold
Now, wait till you hear this, though. This is.
Christy Lee
Wait till you hear this.
Tom Griswold
Staggering. Staggering.
Christy Lee
Guinness said Dwayne or renders dove named Sugar earned the record title at the age of 44 years, 72 days, surpassing the previous record holder, Methuselah, by over 15 years.
Chick McGee
And who knew?
Christy Lee
Now, on his way towards 45, Sugar has more than doubled his life expectancy of 20 years.
Chick McGee
That's insanity.
Pat Godwin
What did he do? Did he capture it in the wild?
Christy Lee
Where'd he get a dove or ender has taken care of Sugar ever since. The tiny dove was born on June 23, 1981. A few years before that, he'd made friends with a couple in Nashville. And the husband gifted Mr. Dwayne a male bird that he used for one of his magic shows.
Tom Griswold
That's, you know, one of the perks of having music, having magician friends.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Oh, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Free doves.
Chick McGee
Yeah. My buddy was a magician. His rabbit was just in a cage in the living room all the time.
Christy Lee
Sure.
Chick McGee
Really?
Christy Lee
And that rabbit lived better than you or I ever will?
Chick McGee
Absolutely.
Tom Griswold
You know where he hit it when he would do his tricks?
Chick McGee
Did he tell you I never did see him do a trick with the rabbit? No. No. So I. And I would ask him occasionally about certain tricks he did and he. He refused.
Tom Griswold
Good.
Chick McGee
Yeah. I know.
Tom Griswold
I do not want to know how.
Chick McGee
I always respected it.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. When I read the story, I had a question. What's the difference between a dove and a pigeon?
Chick McGee
Okay.
Pat Godwin
What is it?
Christy Lee
I don't know. 10 bucks.
Tom Griswold
Scientifically. Nothing. Nothing.
Chick McGee
Oh, no kidding.
Tom Griswold
Really? Yeah, they're the same.
Christy Lee
So a dove. It's just a.
Tom Griswold
They're. They're both. They're in the bird family Columbide.
Chick McGee
Oh, okay. Same family, maybe different species.
Tom Griswold
Nope.
Christy Lee
No. These birds don't use toilet paper.
Tom Griswold
Scientists do not separate them. They're biologically in the same group. Their names are based on tradition and appearance. Doves are usually slightly smaller and they're softer looking.
Chick McGee
They do look fluffy and soft. And I get them. You get them at the feeder.
Pat Godwin
I have tons of of them.
Chick McGee
Yeah, same here.
Christy Lee
Doves.
Tom Griswold
Doves appear in poems.
Chick McGee
They're big signs of peace.
Tom Griswold
And they'll be wedding. They'll release the doves. No One's going to release a bunch of pigeons to crap all over the bride.
Chick McGee
Where you at on dove soap?
Tom Griswold
I don't use anything but ivory.
Chick McGee
I like Dove's got a very unique scent.
Pat Godwin
I use the unscented one.
Chick McGee
It's a nice scent, but it's its own. Like, you know, that's dumb.
Christy Lee
Where are you with the Doves Cry? What about that?
Tom Griswold
That song? I hate it.
Christy Lee
No. Oh, you. Dove crying and big hit.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. When Doves Cry by Prince. I can't stand that.
Pat Godwin
So there are domesticated dove species, the Ring neck or diamond doves, or the ones that you can purchase by seals. And they make a very nice pet.
Chick McGee
They say here, this diamond dove doesn't
Christy Lee
coo for me anymore.
Tom Griswold
And by the way, I have to correct myself. When we had Jimmy Pardo here and his son was here with us.
Christy Lee
Oh, God.
Tom Griswold
Who had a bore. Quite the resemblance to Gary Lewis from Gary Lewis and the Playboy.
Christy Lee
In your mind, you're gonna hammer that home, huh?
Tom Griswold
I actually had a letter from someone agreeing with me, showing me photographs.
Pat Godwin
One person.
Tom Griswold
Well, not everyone is. Is interested in this sort of thing. No, but I did some homework. Leon Russell. Russell did play on that song. He did not write it, though. Okay. Great song.
Pat Godwin
Were you, like, staying awake at night worrying about that?
Tom Griswold
Yes, but I. Yeah, Leon Russell's fine.
Chick McGee
It's kind of the thought that you thought the rest of the world was also still wondering about.
Tom Griswold
Gary's still out there.
Christy Lee
He does this with everything.
Tom Griswold
I saw Gary Lewis in the Playboys twice.
Christy Lee
You're saying Gary Lewis is still alive?
Dan St. Paul
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And you're still singing, still touring.
Christy Lee
Gary Lewis can perform a song live on stage.
Tom Griswold
I saw him.
Pat Godwin
You saw him where?
Christy Lee
I would have to. You. You saw him live on stage twice. Is that right?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah, he. Well, one time he was with one of those oldies things where they've got the guys. Guys from the Turtles.
Chick McGee
Got a babysitter.
Tom Griswold
The association paid for parking.
Pat Godwin
I bet you didn't go with your
Christy Lee
girlfriend went to dessert after this diamond ring.
Tom Griswold
As a matter of fact, Christy, I went with my friend Ricky.
Pat Godwin
Thank you.
Christy Lee
You.
Tom Griswold
I was gonna say Kelly had absolutely. No, we've. We've started a new thing.
Christy Lee
Well, that could have been like 30
Tom Griswold
years ago, but we started a new thing. We were. We are now. There'll be certain shows. Oh, I'll go with, like, Mark and I went to see the Doobie Brothers.
Pat Godwin
Right.
Christy Lee
Here we go.
Pat Godwin
You know, but the beginning of the end.
Tom Griswold
No, no, that's. It's just.
Chick McGee
It's healthy.
Tom Griswold
She's got her Zach.
Chick McGee
Brian.
Tom Griswold
Right. She's a big Zach.
Christy Lee
Do you.
Pat Godwin
It's exactly what we do, too.
Christy Lee
Do you take separate cars to the same event?
Tom Griswold
Event yet most of the time.
Christy Lee
Most of the time During.
Tom Griswold
If it's during a weekday, I got to go to bed early.
Chick McGee
Ah, okay. That makes sense.
Christy Lee
Have you ever gone to an event just to get there and say, well, I'm gonna pack it in for the night, like almost immediately when you get there?
Tom Griswold
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah.
Chick McGee
When you two go somewhere together, do you drive? 100 of the time, unfortunately. Oh, you'd prefer her to drive? Drive, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Because all she does is tell me I'm doing it wrong. Oh, it's like being here.
Christy Lee
Now that's interesting. You take that. Has it occurred to you that you could be doing it wrong?
Tom Griswold
Not that much.
Chick McGee
I'm not doing everything.
Tom Griswold
I mean, when you pull into a place, there are 98 places to park, and somehow I got the wrong one.
Chick McGee
Yep.
Tom Griswold
How is that possible?
Christy Lee
That sounds about right. Right for you. We're not done with the dove story yet. Oh, you know that, right?
Tom Griswold
This is the.
Christy Lee
This is the.
Tom Griswold
Once again, the largest stuff. Total crap.
Christy Lee
Total crap. Mr. Dwayne took his bird home and named it Luther. Then got a female dove from the pet store named Gidget. Just a few weeks later, he found two small eggs in their cage.
Chick McGee
Oh. They added.
Tom Griswold
Oh.
Christy Lee
One of the birds, Goldie, was given away to a loving home while Sugar stayed with Mr. Orrender. He told Guinness, Sugar loves me. He and I are best friends.
Tom Griswold
How old is.
Christy Lee
Late at night? We share the sheets together and.
Chick McGee
Very sweet bird that.
Christy Lee
That bird looks every day as old as it's supposed.
Pat Godwin
He looks so overweight.
Tom Griswold
This is the sound of when dogs. Dogs. When doves die pretty soon.
Christy Lee
My.
Tom Griswold
That is one fat bird.
Pat Godwin
That is a fat.
Christy Lee
That is the definition of miserable.
Tom Griswold
Right?
Chick McGee
Boy, this guy's. This guy's gonna have some squab in a little bit.
Tom Griswold
Are we sure that's not stuffed? Looks like a pigeon. Yeah, it's pretty dingy.
Chick McGee
Well, you just said that they're the same thing.
Tom Griswold
I know, but I mean, doves are again, for.
Christy Lee
You know, there's something wrong with this. Doves and pigeons aren't the same thing.
Tom Griswold
They are scientifically.
Christy Lee
Don't believe I don't.
Chick McGee
They look different.
Christy Lee
It's like saying robins and seagulls are the same.
Tom Griswold
No, they're. They're the same. What's a turtle? It says, here's the first sense. Scientists do not separate them. They're biologically in the same way. All right. Their names are mostly based on tradition and appearance, so there you go. But doves, much more romantic.
Chick McGee
Yeah, sure.
Tom Griswold
Symbolism and religion.
Chick McGee
And they don't get as blamed. They don't get blamed as much for the statue defecation.
Christy Lee
And you.
Tom Griswold
Yes, exactly.
Christy Lee
You can rent doves. I would. You can't rent pigeons.
Tom Griswold
I wouldn't say. No one ever goes in my car. Got full of dove poop.
Chick McGee
Yeah. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
You always blame the pigeons if you
Christy Lee
get married again, do you think, Tom, you'd have doves at the ceremony or release them when you say I do.
Tom Griswold
No, I always like that. The story about the. The people that had the. The butterflies and they opened up the box and 50 dead butterflies fell onto the altar.
Chick McGee
Just pourri at that point.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Really? No.
Christy Lee
You know, have you ever gotten a box that has the butter, the faux butterflies in it?
Chick McGee
Those look cool.
Christy Lee
And they flap away out of the people go crazy.
Chick McGee
In the videos I've seen.
Christy Lee
Yeah. No.
Pat Godwin
Yeah. You open the box and they.
Chick McGee
They're like these paper butterfly things that fly out.
Christy Lee
They're like wound up in a rubber band or something.
Tom Griswold
Sounds like it would complicate things. I'm surprised. I don't know all about this. Well, that sounds good. Is that sports?
Pat Godwin
Butterfly yesterday. Isn't that a little early?
Christy Lee
That is sport.
Chick McGee
That's somebody from your. Who's passed away visiting you.
Pat Godwin
Oh, really?
Christy Lee
Yeah. Could be your mother.
Tom Griswold
Could be Grandma Vi.
Pat Godwin
Could be.
Christy Lee
Did the butterfly yell at you until you were doing things wrong and it wasn't your mom?
Pat Godwin
Yeah, right.
Tom Griswold
Okay. Coming up, we are going to be. We are going to be visiting the world of fish in an astonishing way.
Christy Lee
And how is that not sports?
Pat Godwin
Well, okay, I can give it to you.
Tom Griswold
We'll give it to Jake. You'll enjoy it. And then we have waiting for a bus some interesting news from Artemis that I think you'll enjoy. It's about the menu aboard orion, the Artemis 2.
Christy Lee
It's taco Tuesday, right?
Chick McGee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
You know, you have no idea how right you are.
Christy Lee
I have no.
Tom Griswold
I have no doubt that is the number one. The number one thing eaten that they eat tacos.
Chick McGee
Like taco paste, some sort of tube.
Tom Griswold
You'll. You'll hear.
Chick McGee
All right. Okay.
Pat Godwin
I have two fish stories. Which one do you want me to give him?
Chick McGee
Well, the red herring story isn't real.
Tom Griswold
No, the Hawaii one is. Hawaii one is too sad. Give that to him.
Chick McGee
Taking shots.
Christy Lee
I see the doordash guy knocking on the door of Artemis with Taco Bell. That's what I see.
Tom Griswold
No, These are the O'Reilly red herring.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Excuse me. I've lost my place. Do I go now? These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
Christy Lee
Got a comment? To share, text us at 888-262-8661. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
Pat Godwin
K Pop Demon Hunters, Haja Boys Breakfast Meal and Hunt Trick's Meal have just dropped at McDonald's. They're calling this a battle for the fans.
Tom Griswold
What do you say to them?
Pat Godwin
That, roomie? It's not a battle. So glad the Saja Boys could take breakfast and give our meal the rest of the day.
Tom Griswold
It is an honor to share.
Pat Godwin
No, it's our honor.
Tom Griswold
It is our larger honor.
Christy Lee
No, really, stop.
Pat Godwin
You can really feel the respect in this battle. Pick a meal to pick a side
Tom Griswold
and participate in McDonald's while supplies last.
Christy Lee
Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Top show. We're the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Christy Lee at the news desk, us.
Pat Godwin
Well, hello.
Christy Lee
There's Pat Godwin.
Tom Griswold
Hey, Chick.
Christy Lee
Hey, there's Josh Arnold.
Chick McGee
Hi.
Christy Lee
There's Ace Cosmic.
Chick McGee
Hello.
Christy Lee
Hello, indeed. I'm chick@the orangeinsols.com sports desk. Hello, Tom.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Chick McGee. I. I thought we had finished sports, but it turns out we do have one more sports story.
Christy Lee
If I'm not mistaken, fisherman in Hawaii, which in Hawaiian is. Oh, that's O D E R. O O, D E R say more. Sharks have been swiping their catches in recent years. Fishermen have a trouble with sharks or taking the fisherman's catch.
Tom Griswold
You know what this was?
Christy Lee
Reports indicate sharks now bite off their catch in at least one of every four fishing trips, the highest on record in the past 20 years.
Tom Griswold
Spoiler alert. What? Old man on the sea. Right? I mean, that's what happens.
Pat Godwin
Sounds like me. It's just bait for sharks.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but what's interesting is the. There's a couple different theories about this, but the fishermen think that the sharks have figured it out.
Pat Godwin
Heck, yeah.
Tom Griswold
They're smart that they're following the boats.
Chick McGee
Oh, yeah.
Pat Godwin
They probably just bite off the bottom half. Yeah.
Christy Lee
Phil Fernandez, he's president of the Hawaii Fisherman's alliance, said the shark incidents have grown so common that many fishermen are on the verge of giving up. Ah, they're done with fishing.
Pat Godwin
They're only getting ahead. They don't want that.
Tom Griswold
They need, like, bigger coolers.
Christy Lee
Right.
Chick McGee
They need what?
Pat Godwin
Bigger coolers. How is that?
Chick McGee
The fish aren't. Are the sharks jumping on the boat, getting into the cooler? And eating the fish.
Tom Griswold
That'd be too easy for starters.
Christy Lee
Shark don't have hands. They can't open the cooler.
Chick McGee
They can't climb that ladder.
Christy Lee
Right. What do you think's going on?
Tom Griswold
Are they lashing the. The, the, the. The fish to the side of the boat like in the Old man in the Sea?
Chick McGee
No, they're doing it.
Pat Godwin
They're biting the fish.
Chick McGee
They've got live wells.
Tom Griswold
Well, that's easy. Those. Anybody could do that.
Chick McGee
Like moving sushi. Oh, no, that's. You gotta.
Christy Lee
You are. You are far stupider than anyone.
Pat Godwin
I just said to somebody yesterday, you are the smartest, dumbest guy I've ever met.
Tom Griswold
So these. So they get the fish in the line and the shark just comes and eats it. That's how it works.
Dan St. Paul
Yes.
Chick McGee
As they're reeling in.
Tom Griswold
Well, it's because they see the boat, they see the wake. They got. I got. I know this works.
Chick McGee
They might be figuring it out.
Christy Lee
I bet they have a cooler on that ship, is what they think.
Tom Griswold
Probably full of beer. These guys are too drunk to reel them in quickly.
Christy Lee
I'm going to go, honey, I'm going to get a beer.
Tom Griswold
You stay here and.
Chick McGee
You know how you get the hook out when you catch a shark? You cut the line from.
Tom Griswold
From 30ft away. Let him. Let him eat.
Christy Lee
You don't hold the shark by the mouth.
Tom Griswold
I have a question.
Pat Godwin
Yes?
Tom Griswold
Is there a Hawaiian. A famous Hawaiian beer?
Pat Godwin
Probably.
Tom Griswold
We keep getting all these letters from Hawaii. Can one of our Hawaiian listeners tell us when we do our big trip to Hawaii? What is the. What is the.
Chick McGee
Yeah. Or what's the most popular beer there if they don't have their own?
Tom Griswold
Now, have you ever heard the. The phrase, the shark took a bite out of me? And in the sexual realm.
Chick McGee
No.
Christy Lee
Never.
Tom Griswold
You don't know what you're talking about.
Pat Godwin
No.
Christy Lee
No. Maui Brewing Company.
Pat Godwin
Are you making that up?
Christy Lee
No.
Tom Griswold
And then the response is, it's okay. I've got a towel. No.
Christy Lee
Are you ready?
Pat Godwin
God, you're on another planet.
Christy Lee
Are you ready?
Chick McGee
This might happen three to five days out of a month.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. You never heard this. Shark bite.
Christy Lee
Oh, it's Shark Week. No. Shark week. Shark bite.
Tom Griswold
Oh, they call it. It's Shark Week in my pants. Okay.
Christy Lee
Yeah, sorry.
Pat Godwin
Not your pants.
Christy Lee
Yeah. Because you want to hit them over the head with it.
Pat Godwin
Oh, my God.
Christy Lee
Maui Brewing Company has Imperial Coconut Porter. Oh. Frequently rated as the top craft beer in Hawaii from Beer Advocate.
Tom Griswold
There you go.
Pat Godwin
That sounds good.
Christy Lee
Kona Brewing Company's Kona Light Blonde Ale is also A top, wild, top choice. While Heineken is nearly notably popular across all the islands. Oh.
Pat Godwin
Oh, that used to be your beer, Tommy.
Christy Lee
Including the.
Chick McGee
Is delicious.
Christy Lee
Including here it says the Big island, which no one really knows the name of. Isn't that interesting?
Tom Griswold
President Kennedy drank Heineken.
Pat Godwin
Is that why you drank it?
Tom Griswold
No, I, No, I don't.
Pat Godwin
I know you don't drink now, but there, you know, don't make it look like you didn't have fun back in.
Tom Griswold
No, no, no, no, no. I, I, I know I was. I finished my career beer with that Italian beer.
Pat Godwin
Oh, Peroni.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. And that's the thing that affects your male member, Josh Peroni.
Chick McGee
Yeah, exactly. It'll bend it up.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Is that from the beer or. Yes, they named it after. Okay, good.
Pat Godwin
I have a fishing story.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
The, the, The President Kennedy line comes from a great movie.
Christy Lee
No.
Tom Griswold
Called the Last Detail, with Jack Nicholson, Randy Quaid. An absolute must come out in the 70s.
Pat Godwin
70s.
Tom Griswold
Doesn't matter. It's a great movie.
Christy Lee
Closing in on a hundred years old.
Tom Griswold
Doesn't matter.
Christy Lee
There's no difference between that movie and.
Dan St. Paul
You guys can.
Tom Griswold
You can't appreciate good art.
Christy Lee
There are no differences between that movie and the one where the moon gets hit in the eye with a rock. The same movie.
Tom Griswold
I will admit the auteur aspect of both is certainly present, if, if nothing else from the optics of the.
Chick McGee
Absolutely.
Tom Griswold
Yes.
Chick McGee
Well, what Ashby was doing when he met the Last Detail.
Tom Griswold
Have you ever seen that movie? Yeah, it's great.
Chick McGee
It's really good.
Tom Griswold
It's great.
Chick McGee
It's got the perfect understated ending.
Christy Lee
You know what? It is, it is great.
Tom Griswold
And then. But when he says President Kennedy drank it, then he was about to say, welcome to the wonderful world of sorry. He goes ahead and says, christy, I'm sorry. What do you have over there?
Pat Godwin
New York health officials say it's now safe to eat certain fish from the Hudson River.
Tom Griswold
No, thanks.
Christy Lee
Is that right?
Pat Godwin
First time in 50 years.
Christy Lee
Okay, well, you go first, then.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Lower levels of toxic PCBs have led to updated guidance from the state Department of Health. Families can now eat up to four meals a month of fish caught from the Hudson. The Lower Hudson.
Tom Griswold
Now, whenever I think of fish in the Hudson River, I think of the phrase the Hudson river whitefish, which is a used floating condom.
Pat Godwin
Right. Officials recommend sticking to striped bass and avoiding species like carpenter, harp, and smallmouth. That's bass. The change reflects decades of cleanup efforts alongside the river.
Chick McGee
But, yeah, okay, well, I guess that's good news.
Pat Godwin
Environmentally yeah, it is. I still don't think I'd do it.
Chick McGee
No.
Tom Griswold
No way.
Pat Godwin
Would you?
Chick McGee
I don't know.
Pat Godwin
I mean, I don't think I've ever had a bass.
Dan St. Paul
Have you.
Pat Godwin
Do you ever eat yours? The largemouth?
Chick McGee
No, but I've had. Sea bass is amazing. Have you had that?
Pat Godwin
Oh, yeah, I've had that.
Chick McGee
Yeah. That's really good.
Tom Griswold
I've had a tuna melt from a really good deli in New York City.
Chick McGee
Nice.
Tom Griswold
Many times.
Christy Lee
Ever had that crippling diarrhea that you get from.
Tom Griswold
From a tuna mouth?
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah. You don't want that, Tom.
Tom Griswold
Well, that's. I mean, I guess it's good news. I'd be somewhat skeptical.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Did you ever see that story a few years ago? They did this. They did DNA tests of fish at some of the fanciest restaurants in New York, and often you'd order one thing, and it was actually something else.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, I did see that story.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Because it all tastes like fish.
Tom Griswold
Well, you know, when prepared a certain way, you can get away with murder. So instead of being this really expensive fish, you're getting something else. But I doubt if the. I don't know, there's. I wonder if there's a restaurant in New York City that specializes in the local catch.
Pat Godwin
Do you think they. They advertise that?
Tom Griswold
Maybe. Maybe they will now.
Pat Godwin
I guess there is that. Farm to table. Maybe it's river to table.
Tom Griswold
Can you eat fish from, say, the Seine or the Thames?
Pat Godwin
You can eat anything.
Tom Griswold
Well, thank you.
Chick McGee
That's true.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. I know you. I know you're not allowed to eat the carp in the Hudson pretty much anywhere. Well, no, there are some spots where you can. It's mighty bony.
Christy Lee
Bony? They're underweight? Is that what you're saying?
Tom Griswold
No, no, no. They're full of bones, I think. Yeah. Josh, are you good at cooking a shore lunch?
Christy Lee
Here we go.
Chick McGee
If I had to, but. But, yeah.
Tom Griswold
You don't like to.
Chick McGee
Well, normally my brothers do it so that I don't have to, but I've seen. I've seen them do it enough. Then. Yeah. I mean, you just.
Tom Griswold
How does that. How did that happen? They let you go off without doing any of the work? Do you have to do the cleanup?
Chick McGee
No, no, no.
Tom Griswold
Oh, well, aren't you the pampered little brother?
Chick McGee
Yeah, usually Jeff or John will do the. John usually does all the filleting, and then Jeff batters them up and throws them in the.
Pat Godwin
What are you eating over there? Bluegill.
Tom Griswold
Crappy.
Chick McGee
What? Crappy?
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Crappie. And white bass said crappy.
Tom Griswold
By the way, what is the deal with that?
Pat Godwin
Crappy is good fish.
Tom Griswold
Why is it spelled crappy but it's pronounced crappy?
Pat Godwin
I don't know.
Tom Griswold
What's the story going into that? It's like that, oh, possum thing with the O. I'm not. I don't like that. Coming up, comedian Dan St. Paul, the guy behind the first baseball game. Brilliant comedian, comedian. He's part of a new book, so it's called Comedians Talking Baseball. We'll talk with Dan. Also, we have gambling in the news.
Pat Godwin
We have travel do's and don'ts. If you're traveling soon, it's a good list, too.
Tom Griswold
I'm very happy with that list. And our history lesson is on the way. And when we come back, a song and a story with Patty G. We are in the Aurelio Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
Christy Lee
Thanks for listening to the Bob and Tom show this morning. The show is also out there for you on our YouTube channel. Watch and subscribe. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
Pat Godwin
Hey there. I'm Paula Pan.
Tom Griswold
I help people make the smartest money decisions possible.
Pat Godwin
Do not ever worry about your salary. You need enough to make sure that you aren't in a bad financial position. Once you have that, your salary becomes moot. What matters from that point forward? Upside gains, anytime, type of ownership stake or ownership potential.
Tom Griswold
That's the money.
Pat Godwin
Remember, you can afford anything. Just not everything afford anything. Follow and listen on your favorite platform.
Tom Griswold
Dance.
Christy Lee
Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Top Show. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. There's Christy Lee at the news desk.
Pat Godwin
Hello, Chick.
Christy Lee
Hey, there's Pat Godwin.
Tom Griswold
Hey, Chick. Hey.
Christy Lee
There's Jeff Oskay. Oh, hey, hey. Son of a gun. There's Josh Arnold.
Chick McGee
Hello.
Christy Lee
Ace Cosby's here. Hey, I'm chick@theorangeinsouls.com sports desk. Hello, Tom.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Chick McGee.
Christy Lee
How are you?
Tom Griswold
We are going to switch gears and we have. Mr. Oskay has joined us in the studio.
Chick McGee
Hi, Jeff.
Tom Griswold
And you'll notice that Christy Lee has on her hippie shirt.
Chick McGee
Yeah, that's hot.
Tom Griswold
Kind of a baggy flowery.
Pat Godwin
It's all about proportion, Tom. It's a crop top. And I have on large belled jeans, if you will. So it has to be.
Tom Griswold
It's that hippie look.
Pat Godwin
Okay, fair enough.
Chick McGee
You look good.
Tom Griswold
And I didn't say you didn't look. But it's kind of. You've kind of got that, you know, the Beads into the closet thing and you know.
Pat Godwin
Your kids ever have those ever right now? Oh, they have them now.
Tom Griswold
You go into hearts room. She's got the hanging beads.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, my kids had that in front of their door. The hanging beads.
Christy Lee
No door. She takes the door off.
Pat Godwin
Off.
Tom Griswold
No, there's a. There's a regular door.
Christy Lee
Does she know she can take the door off?
Tom Griswold
I hope not. Yeah, she's got a regular door. There's like a three foot hallway and then she's got the hanging thing and.
Christy Lee
Yeah, but she's.
Pat Godwin
Be careful.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
So she.
Tom Griswold
And she. She wants to move. By the way.
Pat Godwin
Where does she want to move to?
Tom Griswold
She wants to move to Sally's room.
Pat Godwin
Oh, I thought you meant she wanted to move to someone else's house.
Tom Griswold
Oh, probably that's that too. I don't know why. So we'll see.
Pat Godwin
We'll see how Sally has a room in your house.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, she's in college now, but I know she's got. I don't know why Hart would want to move.
Pat Godwin
My kids have rooms in my house.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Just in case. Boing. They're back.
Pat Godwin
Yep.
Tom Griswold
Okay, Christy, you've got a couple news stories for us.
Pat Godwin
Yes, an anonymous vigilante is using an unorthodox method to draw attention to potholes in the seaside British town. According to the SWNS news report, the six potholes in Worthing have had primitive drawings of penises spray painted around them in the past two weeks.
Chick McGee
This guy did this last year.
Pat Godwin
The phallic artwork appears to have grabbed the attention of the local council as some have already been repaired. Locals have mixed feelings about the so called tally whacker tagger.
Chick McGee
Apparently it worked.
Pat Godwin
But many have expressed gratitude on social media.
Tom Griswold
It's Prince Andrew, I'm telling you. Oh, I can't get enough.
Christy Lee
Is that right?
Tom Griswold
Yeah, there's one right here. I. There's one right here. There's. This is not a joke. There's a street called Rucker.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Tom Griswold
Did you see that? Someone stuck a cone in the middle of the road right into the. It's hard to see because the chuckle is so deep. The cone goes almost all the way down. Yeah, you might want to take care of that. Rucker. Rucker Road.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Last week there was a pothole on the south side that was so big that three dudes set up lawn chairs and fished out of it. I took some pictures of them fishing in the pot. They did? Yeah.
Pat Godwin
They catch anything that'd be.
Chick McGee
Yeah, probably.
Christy Lee
That's a great idea.
Tom Griswold
This guy. This is this is in England, right? He's. I mean, it's got. It's like. You know, it's a guy, right?
Chick McGee
Yeah, they said it was.
Tom Griswold
See, there's one. And they're kind of primitive. There's one right there. I went on our screen there, a large bald. But now. See, they have, in fact, filled it.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
So it worked. They call the guy Wanksy, I believe.
Christy Lee
Oh, I get it. Okay.
Chick McGee
Did you see that? They've revealed who that is.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, they sure did.
Chick McGee
He doesn't look anything like you would think he would look.
Tom Griswold
Oh, really?
Chick McGee
I didn't see a picture of him. I just saw. Looks like a boring old guy.
Tom Griswold
Is that for sure?
Chick McGee
Yeah, they.
Pat Godwin
They did say that, yeah.
Christy Lee
Wow.
Pat Godwin
You don't believe him?
Tom Griswold
No, I just think it's a shame.
Christy Lee
I know.
Chick McGee
It was kind of fun.
Tom Griswold
I think it's. It's just so cool in this world if you can do get away with years and years of anonymity. And besides being a tremendous artist. You don't like his work.
Chick McGee
You do? Yes. That whole thing where he painted something, sold it, that it shredded.
Tom Griswold
That's genius. Genius.
Chick McGee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
I think it's like making a comment. He's. He's. It's. It's so meta, if you will.
Chick McGee
You know, it's so meta that it's so. It's like super on the nose. Like, it's not even. There was nothing. The satire's lost in its obviousness.
Pat Godwin
Our own Pat Godwin is a genius, and I believe he has a song for us.
Tom Griswold
And this song really demonstrates my true genius.
Pat Godwin
Good.
Tom Griswold
I was.
Chick McGee
I hit a pothole in Detroit on
Tom Griswold
the phone with you one time. I remember this. I. It was dark. It was freezing. It was dark. And off in the distance was a place called the Flight Club Up a
Chick McGee
big hill and it looked rather fancy Fancy.
Tom Griswold
So I thought I'd wait up there for AAA as opposed to this. Because you. You nailed the rim of your car. You heard it.
Chick McGee
You heard it on the phone?
Tom Griswold
Actually, yes. And there was a curse word or two and then you had to pull over. It turns out that that place is a strip club.
Pat Godwin
Oh.
Tom Griswold
So I wrote a song and it's 100, it's 80 true.
Christy Lee
Driving home late from Detroit it's dark
Tom Griswold
and no orange cones Lost in a
Chick McGee
strange part of town no place to break down alone oh, no I hit a pothole on a neglected avenue and
Christy Lee

Chick McGee
pothole on a neglected avenue Situation's dire
Tom Griswold
Waiting for help at a strip Club
Christy Lee
on a Motown amateur night.
Chick McGee
True.
Christy Lee
I sipped a ten dollar Pepsi.
Chick McGee
Lap dance cost 45. Good God.
Tom Griswold
I hit a pot.
Christy Lee
Hold on.
Chick McGee
Neglected Avenue.
Tom Griswold
Now I'm hanging with the strippers.
Chick McGee
Not true.
Christy Lee
I hit a pot.
Chick McGee
Oh, on a neglected Avenue. She's rubbing on my zipper. Neglected Avenue.
Tom Griswold
That was a. I love that song. That was a big hit.
Pat Godwin
The original in the Electric Avenue by
Tom Griswold
Eddie Grant in the early MTV days. And he had one of my favorite songs with in the Equals.
Pat Godwin
What?
Tom Griswold
Anybody remember that song?
Christy Lee
No. Yeah, because
Chick McGee
I thought he was in the Splendas.
Christy Lee
Oh, he was. And then Stevie, he played bass.
Chick McGee
They called him Sweet and Low.
Pat Godwin
Oh, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Oh, they were hitting all of them. That. That does get to one of my pet peeves.
Christy Lee
Leaves.
Pat Godwin
There we go. I don't have your stuff at the.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, with all these restaurants now all they have is that stevia crap. Look, I'll. I'll handle my own health. Give me my Splenda. Give me my equal.
Christy Lee
Why don't you carry around?
Pat Godwin
Yeah, you need a man purse.
Tom Griswold
I do. Well, then I have a huge box of my stuff in my car now. Oh, I do. I'm not kidding. I'm have to start carrying a salt shaker. No, these restaurants now, there. There's no salt.
Pat Godwin
They'll bring you salt.
Tom Griswold
Perfectly salted by the chef. Yeah, no, it's not. Not to my taste. I'm just tired of being bossed around by these tree hugging chefs that want to Tom.
Christy Lee
But that's where you eat all. That's all.
Chick McGee
You eat every. The restaurants I go to. Salt on the table.
Pat Godwin
Thank you. Me too, Josh.
Chick McGee
Yeah, yeah, Usually just granules on the table that I have to brush off before I eat.
Christy Lee
If you go to a place that's called Sorry to bother you, you're gonna run into that.
Tom Griswold
But am I right, Christy?
Pat Godwin
About what?
Tom Griswold
That none of these places have salt and pepper anymore.
Pat Godwin
Not and they.
Tom Griswold
And they either. If you want to get iced tea, it's always. Well, this is flavored with the panties of the CEO's wife. I want my iced tea. Okay. I don't want crap in it. I want it to be flavored. Want an orange slice? And I get an eye roll from the server.
Pat Godwin
Oh, I'm sure you do.
Chick McGee
I bet there's probably a restaurant you eat at called I Roll, right?
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah.
Pat Godwin
Do all of the restaurants have oranges? Because I would think that what I
Tom Griswold
thought of lemon and tea was an idiot.
Chick McGee
Oranges, an idiot.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Chick McGee
Wildly popular.
Tom Griswold
No, it's not popular. It's just forced on you the way the no salt thing is.
Chick McGee
That's not true. True. It's very popular.
Tom Griswold
Yes. I was bitching about this to my cardiologist and he said, you know, you're an idiot. I have the no salt salt also.
Christy Lee
Yeah, I mean, Mrs. Dash or something.
Tom Griswold
No, no, no, no. It's called no salt. It's like a left handed. Like a left handed molecule.
Christy Lee
So then what. What is it if it's not salt?
Chick McGee
Oh, it's got to be just terrible. Carcinogenic. Yes.
Tom Griswold
It's made of nuclear fuel.
Christy Lee
What's the first ingredient?
Tom Griswold
Oh, no. It's potassium chloride instead of sodium. Yummy. Yeah, it's delicious. But I'm not going to.
Pat Godwin
Why don't you carry that?
Tom Griswold
Where am I going to put this?
Chick McGee
I'll show you.
Tom Griswold
It's you. If I put it in my pants, I'm looking. I've got a huge V down there.
Chick McGee
Well, it'll match. It'll look like you have.
Pat Godwin
Now we have this salt problem, but could we seriously figure out why the air conditioner kicks on at 8:12 every single day? Did you feel it? Right.
Tom Griswold
I think that. I think there's a thing going around the world in which thermostats are run by some huge corporation.
Pat Godwin
Really?
Dan St. Paul
Yes, it's.
Chick McGee
Now it's. It really is unacceptable.
Tom Griswold
The temperatures dropped in this room. 10 degrees.
Pat Godwin
Like a ghost is coming.
Tom Griswold
It's like the guy at the car wash when you, you get the thing where you wash it yourself. You've got seven minutes. And somehow you, you get. You get. At about five minutes, it seems to go off. There's a guy with a camera going, wait a minute, wait a minute. He's got it all soaped up. He's going to have to rinse it, turn it off. Same. Same thing here. They look comfortable.
Chick McGee
Stop paying rent.
Tom Griswold
Drop the. Drop the temperature to 10 degrees.
Chick McGee
I promise you they will not evict
Pat Godwin
us
Chick McGee
like I dare them to.
Tom Griswold
Christy, we got an interesting.
Pat Godwin
We sure did.
Tom Griswold
This is really something. Christie's been talking about her favorite car.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Her Hyundai. Do you have the thing?
Pat Godwin
Yeah. This is from our friend Harmony. She writes in.
Christy Lee
Harmony and me. We're pretty good company.
Pat Godwin
Favorite Elton John song. She's a big fan of the show and she said, christy, like you, I have a Hyundai Tucson. Again, I've had many cars, but this one I just love. In fact, I just rolled over my first 100,000 miles on a car car.
Chick McGee
Okay, when you said rolled over, I don't know what.
Tom Griswold
Currently the letter came laying in the dash it came with the heading. I rolled over. Oh, dear God. I hope you're okay. What is this? Tiger Woods?
Pat Godwin
She took a picture of her dash, and it shows the hundred thousand miles. But I can also tell you.
Christy Lee
Fascinating.
Pat Godwin
She's. She's in the sport mode on her Hyundai because it's in the red, which means that's the sport mode.
Christy Lee
Well, what about the snow mode?
Pat Godwin
It's white. Oh, bright white.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Pat Godwin
And then you have the eco mode.
Christy Lee
Oh, what's.
Chick McGee
Is that green?
Pat Godwin
Yes. And the normal mode is, like, blue.
Tom Griswold
They have a salt mode?
Pat Godwin
No, they don't have a salt mode.
Tom Griswold
Sorry, just asking.
Christy Lee
I just want an orange slice on my dash. Is that too much?
Pat Godwin
If you would like to choose how you drive, Drive a Hyundai. That's right. The reliable and efficient Tucson. The Tucson hybrid, which we've been talking about, comes with America's best warranty. Or there's the stylish yet very capable and a little bit bigger Santa Fe hybrid. The power to navigate the toughest terrain at your fingertips. That's right. Hybrids from Hyundai. The best of both Worlds. Simply visit HyundaiUSA.com or call 562-314-4603 for all the details. That's Hyundai. And thank you, Harmony.
Tom Griswold
Do they have a sort of a congratulatory mode that would go. You pick the right place to park to, Tom. Yes. Excellent job on that left turn.
Pat Godwin
Are you looking for some support as
Tom Griswold
opposed to my usual passenger and the. The constant negativity about my driving?
Pat Godwin
She's out of the country. Right. So you can say that maybe.
Christy Lee
Maybe you're not a very good driver.
Tom Griswold
An excellent driver never had an accident.
Chick McGee
An excellent driver doesn't Gotta watch Wapner.
Christy Lee
It doesn't give me any. Any kind.
Tom Griswold
You put me up against Tiger Woods. Any day now. Coming up, we're gonna talk with the comedian Dan St. Paul. Dan, of course, is responsible for, among other things, the great piece the First Baseball Game, which we butchered, by the way, recently in Cincinnati. He's part of a new book called Comedians Talking Baseball. America's Funniest People Get Serious about the national pastime. Or not. We'll talk to Dan about that book that just came out out. Looking forward to that and other delights, including a little bit of a history lesson. And we've already discussed one aspect of it, which, of course, is the anniversary of the birth date of the great Ravi Shankar.
Pat Godwin
Oh, my God.
Tom Griswold
A little bit of Indian music for you, Christy. This goes perfectly with your blouse. You roll up a J and ball some dude no.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, that's on my calendar for later today.
Tom Griswold
Really? Okay, good. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, and this is the Bob and Tom Show.
Christy Lee
Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. At the news desk, it's Christy Lee. Hey, hey. There's Pat Godwin.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Chick.
Christy Lee
Hey, there. There's Jeff. Oscar.
Chick McGee
Hello, sir.
Christy Lee
There's Josh Arnold.
Chick McGee
Hi.
Christy Lee
He's at the I Hate Stephen Singer, sidekick chair. There's Ace Cosby.
Chick McGee
Howdy.
Christy Lee
I'm Chick McGee@theorangeinsols.com sports desk. Hello. Hello, Tom.
Tom Griswold
Time for an episode of Name that Tune.
Chick McGee
Okay.
Tom Griswold
You ready, Christy?
Christy Lee
As long as it's not Ravi Shankar, we're on board.
Tom Griswold
Oh, it's not. You're close, though. Oops, sorry. I know you know already. Pat.
Chick McGee
Eddie Grant.
Tom Griswold
Eddie Grant.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah. I'm back, baby. Remember this? No, never heard it before. And you played
Tom Griswold
no. Great guitar sound. That's the guy that did Electric Avenue.
Pat Godwin
Okay.
Tom Griswold
Eddie Grant. Great song. The band is called the Equals, named after one of the Splenda, like sweeteners out there equal Splenda. I don't know if there's a band called Sweet and Low, but probably there's probably a husband and wife called Sweet and Low. He sings bass.
Pat Godwin
She sings sweet.
Tom Griswold
She's sweet.
Christy Lee
I'm low.
Tom Griswold
Probably in the ship somewhere, right, Pat? Matthew Sweet and his wife.
Chick McGee
Matthew Sweet. He is really like girlfriend. Remember that one out there today?
Tom Griswold
Let's check in with Christy Lee at the Bob and Tom news desk. What else have we missed?
Pat Godwin
Well, there's a new campaign out there called Beat Cancer Off. It's encouraging men to masturbate more in order to lower their cancer risk. According to the website, men who ejaculate 21 times or more per month may, quote, enjoy a significantly reduced risk of prostate cancer. We've talked about this a lot.
Chick McGee
I masturbate so much, my neighbor won't get cancer.
Christy Lee
That's a lot.
Pat Godwin
The site goes on to explain that the the action will reduce stagnation of prosthetic fluid, helps flush out potential carcinogens, and strengthens the prostate gland, which, of course protects against cancer. So there you go, guys.
Tom Griswold
Further reading. It is. It is really called Beat Cancer Off. There is a tracker app you can
Pat Godwin
get to track how often you're doing it.
Tom Griswold
This says it uses sensors on an Apple watch to sense when you're having a, quote, one man band practice. And it keeps a running count. I'm starting to.
Pat Godwin
Okay, I have an Apple watch. And it's never. It doesn't go off when I orgasm.
Tom Griswold
Well, that's because you're not. You know, maybe you're not pumping the broom. You see, you're not the one. This is for the boys.
Dan St. Paul
Boys?
Tom Griswold
Christy, this is a boys.
Pat Godwin
So it can tell if you're.
Tom Griswold
That's what this. I. I'm getting more and more skeptical,
Pat Godwin
but what if you wear your watch on your left hand and you use your right? Then it doesn't show anything. Right?
Christy Lee
What if you have a pocket watch? What's going on there?
Pat Godwin
I'm very skeptical.
Tom Griswold
So you've met your quota this month, Josh, it's only, what, the seventh?
Chick McGee
21? I haven't. No. In fact, I'm probably behind.
Christy Lee
Oh, no.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. This is a. I mean, it's a smart idea. I guess. I just. I'm somewhat skeptical of the science. How do they.
Chick McGee
No, no. That's been studied for decades.
Tom Griswold
Do they.
Pat Godwin
Empty prostate is a habit.
Tom Griswold
Is this based on self reporting or do they.
Chick McGee
No.
Tom Griswold
Go to some college campus and put an ad on the paper. Hey, come to the jacketorium tonight at 7 and sign up to be part of a.
Pat Godwin
No.
Chick McGee
Well, if you just want to joke about.
Tom Griswold
Hey, Mom. Sorry. Hey, Mom. Listen, I can't talk anymore. I've got to get down to the jacket. To where I'm part of a science project that.
Christy Lee
Why do you say the things you do? Why?
Tom Griswold
I told you. When I was in college, there was an ad in the paper every couple of weeks for the. What do you call it? The sperm bank. They were looking for a very specific type of individual with a cultural slash religious background. But it's true.
Chick McGee
I. I didn't. I go to a community college, so they aren't asking for sperm at mine, they ask for plasma.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Now you're gonna pay for next week's classes. I go to a sperm credit. Union members only. That's right.
Tom Griswold
Sadly, most of mine was at a savings alone. Then they all went under.
Chick McGee
What are you going to do?
Tom Griswold
I got to get fresh. So the essence of this. This is saying you have to have
Pat Godwin
a lot of activity there to keep your. Yeah.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Does it mention the side effect of going blind?
Pat Godwin
No, it does not.
Chick McGee
Okay, well, they need to study that.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Pat Godwin
Another study said I didn't get glasses
Chick McGee
until I was 17. That's all I'm saying.
Pat Godwin
Another study out there suggests tattoos could protect one against skin cancer.
Tom Griswold
This one I find completely non. Believable.
Christy Lee
Completely.
Pat Godwin
Scientists at the University of Utah evaluated 7,000 people and discovered that having two or more tattoo sessions decreased the risk of both invasive and, I don't know, in situ melanoma. That is where cancer cells remain on the skin surface and are most easily removed. While the findings contradicted that hypothesis that more tattoos would lead to an increased cancer risk, the study leader, Jennifer Daughter said more research is needed, of course, to understand why this is.
Tom Griswold
Is that because the tattoo gives sun protection?
Pat Godwin
Well, that would only be in a small area unless you're covered.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I, I can't see.
Pat Godwin
I don't know. Does or is it tattoo get burnt?
Tom Griswold
Is it, is it the lifestyle of people who tend to have tattoos? Would that be part of it or would it be.
Pat Godwin
You're asking a lot of. Great.
Tom Griswold
There tend to be fewer natural blondes and redheads. I don't know. I'm somewhat skeptical of the, of this, of the survey.
Chick McGee
I did do a CAT scan what three weeks ago and there was a kid in front of me and the nurse came out and was, he was getting, he was going to get some kind of mri. And she goes, do you have any tattoos? And he goes, yeah, yeah, actually I do. And she goes, is it new? And he goes, eh, kinda. And she goes, when did you get it? And he goes, Wednesday. And she goes, you can't have an mri. It'll, it'll. It could be really, really painful.
Pat Godwin
Whoa.
Chick McGee
Really burn.
Christy Lee
Wow.
Chick McGee
And also it could really mess up your tattoo and pull the ink out of your skin. Yeah, yeah, it'll just totally.
Tom Griswold
So it has to, to. Yeah, it has to be an older one for that not to happen.
Chick McGee
Yes. Yeah. A new tattoo. She said you had to wait like a month or so.
Christy Lee
That's interesting.
Chick McGee
So he was like, oh, nobody. I didn't know. She was like, well you, you may have known because we, we discuss all these things when you make the appointment.
Christy Lee
No, no, I didn't know.
Chick McGee
And she goes, do you, you can come back, but do you just want to keep. You just want to charge today or. And he goes, it's my parents credit card. I don't know. It's like this poor kid learning some lessons today.
Tom Griswold
I wonder what the tattoo was of.
Chick McGee
I don't know. I didn't hear them talk about it and where.
Tom Griswold
But he's a location, you know, that can prevent you from getting a job with health benefits. Yeah. The last time I had a surgery, I mentioned this. They do the. Before the end the of the anesthesiologist comes in and they ask you a bunch of questions. But one of them now is they ask about gummies, which I thought was kind of interesting, you know, have you. You know any. Any kind of drug stuff. But they're. They've added gummies to the list, but I did not. I've never heard of that tattoo thing.
Chick McGee
Yeah, I. I was like hell, it does make sense.
Tom Griswold
Did they ask you about metal jewelry and.
Pat Godwin
Oh, yeah, you can't wear anything.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Wow.
Tom Griswold
So if you had one of those rings and what do they call it?
Chick McGee
The.
Tom Griswold
The ring and the mail member. What's that called?
Pat Godwin
Oh, Prince Albert. You have to take it out.
Chick McGee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
What would happen if.
Pat Godwin
No piercings.
Chick McGee
Well, watch the latest Final Destination. You want to know what happens?
Tom Griswold
Oh, dear.
Christy Lee
I have those stance placed. You know that. And I still get an mri. I don't think they're magnetic though, or they. They probably cause some problems.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. I've got a rod in my arm like eight inches from my elbow to my shoulder, but that. I can still. I don't know.
Christy Lee
Right.
Pat Godwin
How do they do an MRI on that?
Tom Griswold
I don't. It's. I don't know.
Christy Lee
It's just not fine.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Yeah, some of that.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
I've got nine screws in there.
Christy Lee
Name it, I made out of a graphite and antifreeze.
Pat Godwin
Ah.
Chick McGee
Oh, that's right. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
They found that compound for a while.
Tom Griswold
I. I took a little. I had a. No kidding. I had a pocket sized copy of the X ray ray. Want to go to the airport? I've never needed it in recent years, but you know, to say, look, this is what's going on in there.
Chick McGee
I have a Polaroid of me naked. I just showed a TSA and go, here, you perverts.
Tom Griswold
You know, and that's what you want.
Christy Lee
You don't know what you know. You either get sped up or you spend some time with the guys. You're not sure. Either one's okay, though.
Chick McGee
Don't they say the ones where you stand in it. The boot booth.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Chick McGee
You put your arms up that they're just seeing you naked. Yeah. Like they can see all the tissue and stuff. Yeah.
Christy Lee
They're checking you out, man.
Tom Griswold
Just okay with me. I know.
Chick McGee
Me too.
Tom Griswold
Happy to get in the plane. I don't care. Whatever you want. Let me. Let me get.
Chick McGee
Let me enjoy the show.
Pat Godwin
An eye surgery marathon has restored sight to over 100 people in South Africa. Doctors conducted free cataract surgeries on 133 patients at two hospitals over two weekends last month. The health department led surgical marathons were first staged on Mandela day back in 2023.
Christy Lee
Nothing lacking when you're Cadillacing.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
And have since developed into a public private partnership that takes place several times a year to increase access to care. Which is a nice.
Chick McGee
Was in Africa.
Pat Godwin
Yes. South Africa.
Chick McGee
They also solved some people's site issues by just waving the flies away. I've seen those commercials.
Pat Godwin
Wow.
Chick McGee
There, you're fixed. Fair. Now you can see. I think I need glasses now. You need a fly swatter.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. These guy. What did he say? Jeff? I can see my wife now. Can you go back and reverse it? Fix it. They're heroes, these doctors.
Chick McGee
Of course they are.
Tom Griswold
That's why they call it Cape Town.
Chick McGee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
All doctors are required to wear cape.
Chick McGee
Not all heroes live in Cape Town.
Dan St. Paul
Cape Town.
Tom Griswold
That sounds like a song. Not all heroes live in Cape Town. To dedicate this to Nelson Man.
Chick McGee
South Africa. And from what I understand South Africa very different than living in Africa.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Chick McGee
It's still pretty terrifying. Is it really? Yeah. Like they all live in gates and guarded communities. It's still pretty terrifying. Yes. But you're not going to find those garden. No. Those compliant people.
Tom Griswold
They have urban lions. I don't know.
Chick McGee
Urbane.
Tom Griswold
What's coming up, Christy Lee? I've got. We got our little history lesson. Very exciting.
Pat Godwin
Yeah. And we also have an update on our NASA crew that's coming back from the moon, if you will.
Tom Griswold
Oh and there's a really cool thing about what's on the menu.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Aboard the. The Orion.
Christy Lee
When are we going to start talking about the crew that comes back Back from the dark side of the moon? Isn't the crew that went up.
Chick McGee
Yes, exactly. They'll look like them, won't they?
Christy Lee
Yeah. When is that going to be?
Pat Godwin
Yeah. They were. We didn't hear from them for 42 minutes.
Chick McGee
What if they all came back and they had different eye color? Wouldn't we. We got to do a few more tests.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
They all had British accents for some.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
We'll find out about all of these things.
Christy Lee
I could have.
Tom Griswold
Sure, why not? But before we get to that, I want to talk to you about those credit card bills. Yikes. Look at the credit card. Wait a second. I owe them a lot of money. What happens is if you don't pay off the balance, it can start getting bigger and bigger and bigger because they're legally allowed to charge you 20 plus percent interest. So if you've been trying to get out from under that, get your head above water. Here's one thing. If you happen to own your home, it may be worth a lot more than it was just a few years ago. That's kind of what's been going on almost all over the country. And if that's the case, you may want to do a refi and rewrite the whole thing and take some of that cash, pay off the credit card bills. You're not paying that 20% anymore. And the experts in this, well, they happen to be called American Financing, and they sent me some average figures of some of their customers recently. On average, they say American Financing is saving their customers 800 bucks a month. That's nearly, nearly 10,000 bucks a year back in your pocket. And you may have the ability, like I said, to pay off those credit cards. You don't have to worry about paying that high interest. So get the details from the folks that actually know what they're talking about. American Financing, America's home for home loans.

Hello. Hello, Chick McGee. Congratulations once again on your pick.
Pat Godwin
Pick.
Tom Griswold
You picked Yukon. And the points.
Christy Lee
Give me the points. Give me the points, baby.
Tom Griswold
Very, very effective. Yes, but Michigan the winner. But not in the world of betting. Now, we like to at this time often educate you in the world of history. It's very important
Christy Lee
because if you don't remember the past, what.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, you know what I'm saying?
Christy Lee
Getting the now is getting there is half the journey, right?
Tom Griswold
Born in 1770. Who can forget this one? William Wordsworth. The only reason I'm reading this one is because he was a. The poet was born In Cockermouth, England. Huh?
Christy Lee
You're a child.
Tom Griswold
That's the name. Cockermouth. Of course. He wrote a poem about it. I won't even try to. Never mind. Born in 1915, the great singer Billie Holiday.
Christy Lee
So.
Chick McGee
So nothing is good.
Christy Lee
Nothing between 1770 and 1950. No, not that.
Chick McGee
I wanted to share an old clue joke from Clueless. Oh, yeah, like Billie Holiday. I love him.
Tom Griswold
Real name, Eleanora Fago.
Pat Godwin
Whoa.
Chick McGee
Oh, Billy.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Really? I see why she changed it.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Billy Howard, a little more show busy. But Donald Fagan, the great singer for Steely Dan.
Dan St. Paul
There you go.
Tom Griswold
Fagan, of course, a character in Oliver Twist. Oliver Bob played a killer of Fagan in a production of Oliver in Petoskey, Michigan. Hope you. Hope you saw it.
Christy Lee
That's right. A lot of those shows go.
Tom Griswold
I'll get the review from the Petoski News
Christy Lee
of Broadway.
Tom Griswold
Okay, here we go. A little bit of. A little bit of this. We were talking about this earlier today.
Christy Lee
Hope you saw it, because Christy, again with this.
Tom Griswold
Christy Lee is wearing her hippie chick shirt.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
This is the sound of the sitar. Sitar has a. A brief appearance in a handful of really good.
Christy Lee
Nope.
Pat Godwin
Nope.
Tom Griswold
Classic rock songs.
Christy Lee
Nope. Absolutely nope.
Tom Griswold
Right, Pat? First appearance. Norwegian wood, probably. Yeah, that's. I mean, that's amazing. It's a great song. Ravi Shankar is the. Once again, the Eric Clapton of the sitar, if you will. Or the pick. Your favorite guitar player. He's also the father of Nora Jones,
Christy Lee
believe it or not.
Tom Griswold
But he was the main sitar dude. That game came out. It wasn't very popular here. The video game Sitar Hero. Much less. Much less popular.
Christy Lee
Okay, you know what? Yeah, we're getting closer. Yeah, I like that very much.
Tom Griswold
And every once in a while, if you go on YouTube, you can see the air sitar competitions.
Chick McGee
Wow.
Tom Griswold
Not quite as fun because they have to sit. What do you call that? What is that? Akimbo? What's that called where you sit like that?
Christy Lee
Crisscross applesauce.
Tom Griswold
Crisscross applesauce.
Christy Lee
Talked about it.
Pat Godwin
Is that why they call it the sitar? Because you have to sit?
Tom Griswold
Could be.
Christy Lee
It weighs like 100 and 200 pounds, right?
Tom Griswold
We actually have one at the shack.
Chick McGee
Don't ask about the one you play on the toilet.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah.
Pat Godwin
Thanks, Josh.
Christy Lee
Well, and that's. That's more of a nickname.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Yeah, you got to hit that s really clearly. Happy birthday. He's been in the studio with us. Born in 1949, John Oates. As in hall and Oates. Do we have to pick sides in this divorce?
Christy Lee
Well. Well, I'm hoping those two kids get back together.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, me too.
Tom Griswold
They're so good.
Christy Lee
You know, I follow John Oates. I do not follow Daryl hall on Instagram.
Tom Griswold
Well, Daryl Hall's got that great TV show.
Christy Lee
My choice.
Tom Griswold
Daryl's house, always wonderful. You know. You know who they are? Josh, you're giving me that look.
Chick McGee
Oh, I know. I love all of those. Yeah, I wasn't familiar with Daryl's House.
Tom Griswold
Live from Daryl. It's a. He has friends come over and they play. He's a great songwriter and he's a incredible singer. He's really good.
Chick McGee
YouTube thing or something. Yeah, yeah.
Tom Griswold
And John Oates is often confused with that guy, Wilford Brimley.
Pat Godwin
What?
Chick McGee
Oh, is he a little gray now?
Tom Griswold
Got the big stash.
Pat Godwin
Look anything like Wilford Brimley?
Tom Griswold
Maybe it's just me. Okay. Oh, happy birthday. 1954. Jackie Chan. Yeah, yeah.
Chick McGee
I love Rumble in the Bronx.
Christy Lee
John Oates. That was kind of the problem when he decided to shave his mustache off. I. I don't even want to be somebody different.
Tom Griswold
That's really okay. Jackie Chan is. What's the thing with the guy Tucker, Those are funny movies.
Chick McGee
They're not. And those movies are rush hour 1, 2 and 3.
Tom Griswold
Oh, sorry.
Chick McGee
Those are tough ones.
Tom Griswold
I had a Nerf with our sinise.
Christy Lee
Virtually life free.
Dan St. Paul
Yeah, a lot of talking like that.
Chick McGee
Boy, isn't that good.
Tom Griswold
Okay, sorry, A little bit of that goes.
Chick McGee
You know what? We're in the minority, though. Those were wildly popular.
Tom Griswold
I thought he was funny.
Chick McGee
Oh, I don't mind Chris Tucker and some things.
Tom Griswold
No, no, I'm in the. I'm in Mr. Chair.
Christy Lee
Speak fanatically. You know,
Tom Griswold
that was my. That was him and my landlord, Jackie Chan. No, mister, we Mr. Chan. I'm not kidding.
Chick McGee
Well, I. That's fine. We didn't think you were kidding because it's nothing.
Christy Lee
Nothing has anything to do with any of this.
Tom Griswold
No, no, just Mr. Chan when I lived on West 80. Yeah, Mr. Chan. Where did he hate us? Oh, man.
Chick McGee
You know, I can only imagine at
Christy Lee
some point somebody's going to take you by the shoulder and sit you down and make you watch your life.
Tom Griswold
I don't want to.
Christy Lee
You're going to have to explain. Thinking.
Tom Griswold
Oh, let's see. Russell Crowe. Do you remember? We talked to him on the phone. You know, he has a band, they were coming through town. It's called something like 30 odd turtles or Odd grunts or something. Grunts? Really?
Chick McGee
It is. It is.
Tom Griswold
Like 30 grunts or something. Have you seen him lately?
Christy Lee
He's big.
Pat Godwin
He got big.
Christy Lee
Yeah, he's chubby.
Tom Griswold
New movie. Glad I ate it, fella. Big.
Chick McGee
Glad I ate it.
Pat Godwin
He's done a lot for you know what? Coliseum.
Christy Lee
And I know exactly where that came from.
Tom Griswold
1805. Lewis and Clark begin their journey to the Pacific Ocean.
Pat Godwin
Oh, didn't you read a book about them?
Tom Griswold
I know. It was one of the greatest Gary
Christy Lee
Lewis and Playboys, right? Yeah. Oh, they couldn't wait to get back. They all wanted their tobacco.
Tom Griswold
Which up against Gary Lewis in the play Boys. It's great song.
Christy Lee
Please stop.
Tom Griswold
Okay.
Chick McGee
He saw Twice Live.
Christy Lee
And you're. Your. Your contention is Gary Lewis is still alive.
Tom Griswold
He's still touring.
Christy Lee
He's still touring. Yeah. He's actually singing. Not like Frankie Valley singing. He's singing.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
He's probably, what, 75?
Chick McGee
Seen at any rib fest this summer.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah, Nothing wrong with those. And if you miss him on stage, he'll be cleaning up afterwards.
Tom Griswold
Now, don't you go knocking the rib fest.
Christy Lee
I love the rib. Here we go. The only thing that ruins a rib fest is Gary Lewis.
Pat Godwin
There we go. Go ahead.
Christy Lee
Let him do it. Stand by for the Killing field joke. We always think that's funny.
Chick McGee
That always goes over well.
Pat Godwin
What is it?
Christy Lee
Number 42 on the list. Rib fest.
Tom Griswold
One of my favorite jokes.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Yes. I was at the rib fest.
Christy Lee
What?
Tom Griswold
And they. They had one of those really good pat. One of those really good Beatles cover bands. I mean, they were really excellent. To get to get up close, though, you have to walk through this. This field, and there were thousands of ribs there. I felt like I was in Cambodia after Pol Pot's birthday.
Pat Godwin
Don't you feel like this is like, Groundhog Day?
Tom Griswold
It is Groundhog Day. This is our life now.
Christy Lee
Just.
Pat Godwin
God.
Chick McGee
Hey, this kills in Cambodia. I don't know why you guys are laughing.
Christy Lee
Everybody. Anybody read a book around here?
Tom Griswold
The Lewis and Clark book is called Undaunted Courage. It's great.
Christy Lee
They killed dogs.
Tom Griswold
All right.
Pat Godwin
They ate them.
Tom Griswold
But they didn't eat. They didn't eat the Newfoundland. Well, they didn't.
Pat Godwin
I believe you.
Tom Griswold
That was the.
Chick McGee
That was the sex dog
Pat Godwin
that kept them the warmest.
Tom Griswold
And they never made it to California.
Christy Lee
Which one did they? Like a. Like a lab or something?
Tom Griswold
Some of the other ones. It's awful, but you do what you got to do. They left St. Louis on the journey, and they. They didn't have, like, ways or anything, so they didn't know they were going necessarily. And they. There were no In N Out burgers. And then they knew they'd gotten there when they saw the Hollywood sign.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah, do me a favor and put that up as a review. You know, when they left St. Louis, they didn't have ways.
Tom Griswold
There's a great tobacco scene in the book. I'll let you find it yourself.
Christy Lee
I've heard this tobacco scene. I feel like I read the book.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, just shows how addictive it is. Lastly, this is for you, Josh.
Chick McGee
Huh?
Tom Griswold
This is in the form of a question.
Chick McGee
Please.
Tom Griswold
No one else can participate. Ace, don't blurt it out. 1970, John Wayne wins his first and only Oscar. For what movie?
Christy Lee
True Grid.
Chick McGee
I. I did. I did know it.
Pat Godwin
I knew that. Yeah, yeah, we all knew that.
Christy Lee
I'm not Ace. You said Ace, don't worry.
Tom Griswold
I said none of you. No, you just said. Okay, let me hear the tape.
Christy Lee
Kim Darby.
Pat Godwin
Yep.
Tom Griswold
That was a. That was the lady.
Christy Lee
Glenn Campbell.
Pat Godwin
Kim Darby was a lady. Yes.
Christy Lee
Kim Gam Darby. Not Born a Girl, though.
Chick McGee
It was Jim Darby.
Christy Lee
Jim Darby.
Chick McGee
And the remake was great, too. Jeff Bridges.
Christy Lee
It was okay.
Chick McGee
He plays rooster. Is that Rooster Cogburn?
Tom Griswold
Is it Cog or Cog? It's Cog.
Christy Lee
No, if it was Cockburn, it'd be Cockburn.
Tom Griswold
Oh, like Bruce Coburn, the great guitarist.
Christy Lee
Wonder where the Lions Are.
Tom Griswold
Oh, I love that tune. If I Had a Rocket Launcher. That's a great, great song. Let's see now.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Chick McGee
Charles Bronson style.
Christy Lee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Still speaking of rockets.
Pat Godwin
Yeah. We're gonna talk about the rocket when we come back.
Tom Griswold
Coming up, I'm gonna tell you why it's impossible to ever get to Mars. And secondly, what they're eating aboard Orion in this really cool mission.
Christy Lee
And how they replaced the original crew on the dark side of Artemis.
Chick McGee
Right. What is Orion?
Pat Godwin
Artemis is. Is like the mission and then
Chick McGee
the actual capsule.
Christy Lee
Yeah, Artemis is a girl.
Tom Griswold
It's named. It's named after Artemis Pyle, the drummer for Leonard Skynyrd.
Chick McGee
Who knew?
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
No, it's not. It's. It's named after. It's named after Artemis from the great television show the Wild, Wild West.
Chick McGee
Ah.
Tom Griswold
Oh, remember the guy?
Pat Godwin
Artemis Gordon.
Tom Griswold
Artemis Gordon. He rigged up all that stuff he was.
Pat Godwin
He was doing.
Tom Griswold
Doing it before MacGyver. He's the original MacGyver.
Christy Lee
He wasn't doing. Was a TV show.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but it was real. Coming up, comedian Dan St. Paul will be joining us here in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

She's at the news Center. There's Pat Godwin.
Tom Griswold
Hey, Chick.
Christy Lee
Hey there. There's Jeff Oskay.
Chick McGee
Check.
Christy Lee
There's. There's Josh Arnold.
Chick McGee
Hi.
Christy Lee
He's at the I hate Steven Singer sidekick chair. There's Ace Cosby. Hey, I'm Chick McGee@theorangeinsouls.com sports desk. Hello, Tom.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Chick McGee. Thank you very much. Last week we had an opportunity to do our show live. We had a great time in Cincinnati, Ohio, celebrating the opening of the baseball season. And while there, we took a famous piece from the comedian Dan St. Paul and took the liberties of butchering it live. We have the author joining us. It's Dan St. Paul on the big screen up there. Hey, Dan. How are you, sir?
Pat Godwin
Hey.
Dan St. Paul
Hey, everybody. I'm well, thanks.
Tom Griswold
Just hearing your voice. I can hear you doing Harry Carrie.
Dan St. Paul
Hi, everybody.
Tom Griswold
There we go.
Dan St. Paul
Welcome to Foster City, California.
Tom Griswold
Now, Dan is a law time San Francisco Giants fan. Are you still a season ticket? Are you a season ticket holder still?
Dan St. Paul
No, no, we gave them up. You know, they won three World Series in five years and, and everybody is still in the ballpark every night. It's crazy. And it was great. And then about two years later, they started sucking badly. And I'm sitting in my seat and a guy next to me talking to his girlfriend, he goes, hey, you know, these are great seats. Only cost me nine bucks. I look at my ticket and it said 35. And I said, I think it's time to go watch hockey. Now,
Tom Griswold
Dan is a great stand up comedian and a veteran of the world of standup. And like many of the other gents in this book, it's called Comedians Talking Baseball. America's Funniest People Get Serious about the national pastime or not. And essays by you and a bunch of other comedians, including Sean Mori. I want to read a quick passage that perhaps only Chick and I will like. This is from Mike Vance and it's about a guy. I remember this Oscar Gamble.
Dan St. Paul
Sure, I remember Oscar Gamble.
Tom Griswold
Remember Oscar, Big time Afro hairstyle. That's what it says. Oscar Gamble.
Christy Lee
Cleveland Indian.
Tom Griswold
Yes, Cleveland Indian. I was going to say it said had the best Afro in major league baseball. People will talk about the 1976 card, but for my money, it's his 1975 beauty with the Indians. And he goes on to talk about Oscar and his huge afro. He goes, by the way, I looked it up, Oscar is now pretty much bald. But it was fun while. Fun, fun while it lasted. Yeah, we, we one day did great frozen sports because there certainly was an era. Dan, what is, what do you write about in the book?
Chick McGee
Book?
Dan St. Paul
Well, they, they, they wanted to do our bit. You know, the Harry Carey, the first. He, Mike said, do you mind if I put it in the book? The book? I said, no, not at all. So I know that's in there. You know, there may be some other stuff, but that's definitely in there. I have not received a copy of the book yet.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I just got mine, so I haven't read much of it yet, but
Dan St. Paul
it's just, just come out. But I'm looking forward to reading it because there's a lot of really funny guys in there.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Now, are you still on the road?
Dan St. Paul
I do, I am semi retired, which means I remember half of my act. I, I do about 10 weeks a year on, on a cruise. On cruises and, and enjoy that. And then the rest of the time I'm, I'm just the old guy at the gym. Him who has to sit down to put on his pants.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah, you. And you also, you're, you're out there on the Internet. I know. I joined up. You've got a thing going there.
Dan St. Paul
I've got a sub stack. Yeah, I've got a sub stack. And it's fun to some. It's called Another Funny Thing about Aging. So whenever anything comes up, I just, you know, I, I write an essay about it. Just like I'm, I'm getting tired. Tired so easy now, you know, as I get older and, and I was at a concert and I went to go to use the bathroom and
Tom Griswold
I
Dan St. Paul
couldn't see the men's, just the women's in the lobby. And I asked the usher, I said, where's the man? She goes, okay, the man's is way over on the other side of the amphitheater. And I said, oh, well, what if I were to read to reveal to you you that I am gender fluid. And in fact, I know I present as male right now, but tomorrow morning I'll be in a house coat and slippers watching the view, doing my nails. So, yeah, so I could eat ties. I get, I finally, I get to the Men's room. And. And what do you know? I'm standing there and I can't go. You know, I'm just trying. I can't go. I said, screw this. And so I sat down, which is difficult at a men's urinal, but because you got a squat and make sure you don't pee on your shoes, but you got it. And when you're ready, you got to turn around, point and aim. And so, you know, and that's very embarrassing because nobody wants to see your butt while you're peeing in the men's room.
Tom Griswold
Sure, sure.
Dan St. Paul
I mean, some guys would, but you want to get out of there before they show up.
Tom Griswold
So anyway, now how is. How is the rest of your life as a retired guy? Do you. What do you do during the day all the time?
Dan St. Paul
Well, I get up around 9:30. I. I do the wordle. And. And probably the spelling bee, too.
Tom Griswold
And do you do connect? Do you do connections?
Dan St. Paul
I do connections, but only if I have time. Sometimes the spelling bee takes a long time. I have to put it away and get it back, but I have to do those two first.
Tom Griswold
There's a curveball today in connections. I'm warning you. Speaking of basement.
Christy Lee
Oh, is it?
Dan St. Paul
Oh, good.
Chick McGee
I'll.
Dan St. Paul
I'll give it a shot. Yeah, it's.
Tom Griswold
You'll see.
Dan St. Paul
It's tough. I do that. I'm extra exercise either. I see. I swim usually. So I'll go swimming. Swimming for about a half hour, and then I. Do you know what we do? In fact, tonight we're doing it ever since COVID We were all set. All comics are sitting around on our hands. And so I decided to put together a bunch of guys on Zoom, and we get together once a month and do trivia. And. And so we've been doing that for about. Well, since COVID I mean, it's been years.
Tom Griswold
Okay, can I. Can I end this conversation with a trivia question for you?
Dan St. Paul
Go ahead.
Tom Griswold
We were talking about Lewis and Clark. Now, this is, of course, the real Lewis and Clark, the explorers. There was a sitcom, because you and I are the same age. There was a sitcom called Good Morning World, and they played DJs. Lewis and Clark. Can you name either of the actors on that show? Wow. It featured Paul Lynde, the great Paul Lynde.
Dan St. Paul
Oh, really?
Tom Griswold
Who happens to be here with us? Josh, would you like to Introduce Paul Lind?
Chick McGee
Mr. Lind, what is next to the Sistine Chapel? The 15th Chapel.
Tom Griswold
Thank you. Dan, do you remember who the actors were?
Dan St. Paul
Was Paul Paulin. Was not one of the.
Tom Griswold
No, he was not one of the. He was not one of the morning show hosts. It's the reason I went into radio.
Dan St. Paul
And this was like. And this was in the 60s.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. Very early on.
Pat Godwin
7 68.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Well, I'll. I'll answer it for you in case it comes up in your trivia competition. Ronnie Shell and Joby and Joby Baker.
Pat Godwin
Who the hell are those people?
Dan St. Paul
Oh, I know Ronnie Shell. Ronnie Shell is a San Francisco comedian,
Tom Griswold
actually, way back, I think. And I think Joby Baker was in, like, every Elvis movie, I think. But there's a little morning radio trivia for you. Well, it's great, Dan. It's always a great pleasure. Thanks for allowing us to butcher the famous first baseball game piece.
Dan St. Paul
Oh, I'm glad you guys did. I bet you it was a hoot. I wish I'd seen that.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it's. It's floating around out there. And I believe one of our Harry Carries was a lady who really killed it.
Christy Lee
Oh, awesome.
Dan St. Paul
I would love to hear that.
Tom Griswold
Had no idea who it was. Thanks, Dan. Thanks, Dan. Thanks for getting up early. We appreciate it.
Pat Godwin
Goldie Hawn was on that show. Bye, Dan.
Tom Griswold
Goldie Hawn was on that.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, that's what it says. She was on at least in one episode. Now there's a picture of her with the cast. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
But. Yeah. Paul Lind, Ronnie Shell, Joby Baker and a class. I don't think that was ace. Has that ever showed up on one of those weird stations, Even heard of this?
Chick McGee
And their names were Lewis and Clark.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
They were a morning radio team.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
You know, the true explorers. Lewis and Clark had issues while they were walking all that time.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. You know why? Moccasins.
Chick McGee
Yes.
Tom Griswold
Not good for your feet.
Chick McGee
Very unsupportive. And what they could have used was a little help in the form.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Of an orange inside. Do you walk?
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Chick McGee
You do. You're working hard, you're standing a lot. You could benefit from orange insoles because, look, feet get tired, arches collapse, knees complain, heels ache, lower backs tighten up. Most people go, well, I'm getting older. This is just kind of what happens. It doesn't have to. Check out orange insoles. They deliver rigid arch support that don't collapse. By lunchtime, they've got deep heel cups that cradle your heels and absorb shock naturally, helping maintain alignment. And that keeps your feet from fatiguing as quickly. And therefore, you're gonna have less stress on those knees, hips, and lower back because we all know the foot bone is Connected to the shin bone. And the shin bone is connected to the knee bone.
Dan St. Paul
Oh, my God.
Chick McGee
And no, no, Chick. Only three more minutes, okay? These are built for real people. That's you out there working on concrete on hard floors. Maybe you're in a classroom or in a hospital or in a restaurant. If you've ever said my feet are killing me, you probably want to check out orangeinsouls.com.
Tom Griswold
you know, there's a hipper way to say that.
Chick McGee
A hipper way to say what?
Tom Griswold
My feet are killing me. Oh, you reference your dogs.
Chick McGee
Yeah. If you've ever said my dogs are barking. Boy, oh, boy.
Tom Griswold
When I say that, it means my dogs are barking. But in this case, it means your feet hurt.

Pat Godwin
Yes.
Tom Griswold
And it's really kind of. I was surprised how cool this is. You'll be pleasantly surprised. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
Christy Lee
Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studio. Christy Lee at the news desk.
Pat Godwin
Hello.
Christy Lee
There's Pat Godwin.
Tom Griswold
Hey, there.
Christy Lee
There's Jeff Oskay.
Chick McGee
Howdy.
Christy Lee
Josh Arnold here.
Chick McGee
Hi.
Christy Lee
There's Ace Cosby.
Chick McGee
Hello.
Christy Lee
I'm Chick McGee. And comedians like Dan St. Paul on the Bob and Tom show, brought to you by Lee's famous recipe chicken. Famous for a reason. Leed's famous recipe. Recipe chicken. Hello, Tom.
Tom Griswold
Hello, Chick McGee. A real quick footnote to our discussion about Good Morning world and the DJs Lewis and Clark. It was Billy DeWolf that was the crazy manager. Remember that guy with a really kooky mustache? That guy, very weird. And Ronnie Shell, by the way, still alive at 94. If you saw Billy DeWolf, he's one of those old. You'd. You'd recognize right away. He's a kind of.
Pat Godwin
I recognized him, but I didn't know his name.
Tom Griswold
A real Oscar approach. Very Very cool. Now we were talking about food aboard the Orion. Yes.
Pat Godwin
Because of course yesterday it was a beautiful day for the Orion crew as they went to the dark side of the moon. Farther than anyone in humankind has been in space. Which is very exciting while being alive. Why do you always tag it with that?
Tom Griswold
Because, you know there's some Russian guy. Oh yeah, you know, past Mars cosmos sickle.
Christy Lee
He's way out there, man.
Pat Godwin
But this is what the astronauts are dining on. 189 different options as they take their tour around the moon.
Christy Lee
Oh come on.
Pat Godwin
Some of the most common food items. Vegetable quiche, a nice breakfast sausage, spicy green beans, couscous with nuts, mango salad and granola with blueberries.
Tom Griswold
Was this a cheesecake factory?
Pat Godwin
But tortillas are among the most popular astronaut foods.
Tom Griswold
Can you figure out why?
Christy Lee
Taco Tuesday. Because they're flat and in zero gravity. Flat.
Tom Griswold
You're close.
Christy Lee
You're on to something that stays flat.
Tom Griswold
It's not the flatness, it's the easy to fold them envelope like hold the
Pat Godwin
food in delivery system. Oh yeah, yeah.
Christy Lee
It's the same reason A burrito, sausage burrito, you can eat it in the car. It stays right there.
Tom Griswold
It's why you have hot dogs at the ball game instead of the sombrero full of stuff you're going to spill all over.
Christy Lee
Why you don't have a big bowl of soup while you're driving the car.
Chick McGee
Exactly right.
Christy Lee
Most of the time.
Pat Godwin
And when you're in space soup would be impossible to eat.
Tom Griswold
Well yeah, you'd be right out of the bowl.
Chick McGee
Oh boy.
Tom Griswold
Well yeah, you're right though.
Christy Lee
You may have a big bite floating around your head.
Tom Griswold
I, I think I took the part out of this article about other things that were floating around in previous missions. Like what if you spend some time on the NASA website. It's amazing.
Pat Godwin
There are five different hot sauces aboard Orion. There are 10 types of beverages including 43 cups of coffee that power the crew. The 43 cups of coffee for the total mission. That wouldn't be enough or is that a daily thing?
Christy Lee
Or near enough.
Tom Griswold
43 styles or.
Pat Godwin
But this is 43.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I thought that was, was surprising.
Pat Godwin
I guess just maybe it's just have 43.
Tom Griswold
I think they're allowed to have one a day.
Pat Godwin
I think on a typical mission day excluding launch and re entry, astronauts have a scheduled time for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Each astronaut is allotted two flavored beverages per day which may include their coffee.
Tom Griswold
There you go.
Pat Godwin
They're due. They, they limit their beverages because you can imagine.
Chick McGee
P. Less.
Christy Lee
Well.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Less pissed.
Christy Lee
Well, they're supposed to.
Tom Griswold
One last.
Pat Godwin
Oh, and here's something surprising.
Christy Lee
There's some diet they're on that reduces the amount of their.
Chick McGee
That's right.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Pat Godwin
No fresh food on Orion because there's no refrigerator.
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah.
Pat Godwin
I take up too much space.
Chick McGee
Yeah, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Either about a tiny dorm. They've kind of got everything. Kind of. One of the frat guys tried to bring in a dorm fridge.
Pat Godwin
Yeah. Food aboard Orion is ready to eat. Rehydratable, thermostabilized or irradiated.
Christy Lee
Oh, it's thermostabilized.
Tom Griswold
Now if it's. They say it's irradiated. That doesn't mean it's giving off radiation. No, you don't have to walk.
Chick McGee
That would be radioactive.
Pat Godwin
Radioactive and apparently heated in a compact briefcase style food warmer.
Christy Lee
Huh.
Pat Godwin
The Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen also has five Canadian food products to remind him of home.
Tom Griswold
Of course, space poutine.
Chick McGee
Oh, by the way, chick I saw at cvs, they had. I forget exactly. Is it all seasoned?
Christy Lee
Nope. All dressed.
Chick McGee
All dressed chips.
Christy Lee
All dressed. Did you know they lay's potato chips.
Chick McGee
I didn't realize they'd become widely available here from Canada.
Christy Lee
Oh, yes.
Chick McGee
Yeah, they are.
Tom Griswold
Wait, wait, well, slow down. Of these potato chips.
Chick McGee
Yeah, yeah, yeah. They were like. I think these were all dressed ruffles
Christy Lee
and they, they, they have a distinctive flavor. They're very good.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Oh, I did not know.
Chick McGee
But I had not seen them at a, you know, CVS like that.
Christy Lee
All dressed.
Pat Godwin
There are no all dressed chips on board the space shuttle though. Around board Orion we have ketta, salmon bites, shrimp curry.
Christy Lee
Hey, you know, with those salmon bites you should. No thanks is what I'd say.
Pat Godwin
Yeah, you think that would smell a right.
Christy Lee
Right.
Pat Godwin
Strawberry lavender super seed cereal.
Christy Lee
You know, one of the astronauts is cooking fish in the microwave.
Chick McGee
Oh, even up there.
Christy Lee
Yeah, they got their own. Josh.
Pat Godwin
Maple cream cookies and maple syrup for the Canadians. So yeah. There you go. All right.
Tom Griswold
Artemis 2 does sound like the name of a Greek diner.
Chick McGee
Oh yeah.
Tom Griswold
Where do you want to go tonight, honey? How about Artemis 2? Oh, good.
Christy Lee
No, it's not as good as Artemis 1. No, no, there's lost something.
Tom Griswold
Better. Better location.
Pat Godwin
Sometime restaurants should just stay as they are, not try to expand.
Tom Griswold
But I mean this food probably is significantly better than it was back in the Scott Hollow days when it was.
Chick McGee
Hot sauces are better to cover up the. That's why I was looking up. I wondered if they told you what kind of hot sauce they brought up, cuz. That would be my luck. It would be the one I'm. Oh, you just have Frank's. I. I'm a Tabasco guy.
Pat Godwin
They splashed down outside the coast of California on Friday.
Tom Griswold
So pretty cool.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And then the goal of course is the in a couple of years to actually land it was it 2020 once again.
Christy Lee
Which is real tricky because it's a controlled fall really.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Dan St. Paul
Because.
Tom Griswold
And there's no gravity so they. You can't par. I mean excuse me. There's. Sorry, there's. There's no atmosphere. Right. So you can't parachute in. So it's all controlled by rockets.
Christy Lee
It's the same reason restaurants here.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, yeah. No atmosphere.
Christy Lee
There's no atmosphere.
Tom Griswold
But it's incredibly cool. The engineering unbelievable that this is happening.
Pat Godwin
So we're back in a space race with China now, huh?
Tom Griswold
What's cuz we got to put weapons up there.
Pat Godwin
Oh my God.
Chick McGee
And AI does most.
Pat Godwin
We all just.
Chick McGee
Those guys don't really have to do much.
Pat Godwin
Can't just get along.
Chick McGee
Oh, is there a way like I figure if there was a way they would have done it by now to beam a logo onto the moon at night for like Adidas or Nike maybe from a satellite that's close enough to the moon. Put it up to. Yeah, they might be surprised if they could do it.
Tom Griswold
They would have done it like a bat signal thing.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
You know when it's available when it. When the technology exists. The words Elon Musk will appear on the moon in 3D or one of his kids birthdays days. Doesn't have a kid named. Named like Xenon or make the.
Christy Lee
The moon his face. It would lend itself to kind of look.
Chick McGee
Oh you could. The moon would be the new sphere.
Christy Lee
A moon face.
Pat Godwin
It could be anything.
Chick McGee
Yeah, it'll change it for us. Yeah. Oh look, it's a pumpkin.
Christy Lee
That'd be kind of cool.
Pat Godwin
That would be kind of cool.
Chick McGee
Oh, it's the masters this weekend. They made it look like a golf ball.
Christy Lee
They were turning the sphere into the moon and it looked like the moon. It was laying in the floor. Really cool.
Tom Griswold
That's great.
Christy Lee
Great.
Pat Godwin
Well if you're traveling to the moon, how about some top travel do's and don'ts?
Tom Griswold
All right.
Pat Godwin
It's not really specific to the moon.
Tom Griswold
Do we get to guess them, you think?
Pat Godwin
A new poll from Talker Research reveals people's top travel do's and don'ts. First of all, 2,000American travelers.
Christy Lee
You're you guessing throws everything off because you're not normal. So that's going to be a problem. But you can guess if you'd like.
Tom Griswold
Well, I. I've read the list, so it wouldn't be fair for me to guess.
Christy Lee
Don't guess that.
Chick McGee
Don't forget condoms if you're going to Haiti.
Pat Godwin
Well, that's. This is more pet peeves.
Christy Lee
Don't drink the water.
Tom Griswold
You know something? If you're going to Haiti, that'd be kind of low on the list. Really, I think. Maybe don't go number one. Bodyguards.
Pat Godwin
These are some of the. The top ten travel pet peeves.
Christy Lee
Okay.
Pat Godwin
And most of them are usually on a plane, but if you would like to try to get. Yes, we have 10.
Chick McGee
When your passenger puts their feet on the dashboard.
Christy Lee
Well, dashboard.
Chick McGee
Oh, in the car.
Pat Godwin
In the car. Well, this is on a plane, apparently. Letting your child kick the seat in front of them.
Chick McGee
Oh, that's.
Pat Godwin
That's terrible.
Chick McGee
I like it. It's a little massage.
Christy Lee
So is this. Is it going to be. I can't put my seat back.
Pat Godwin
Let's see. I don't recommend your seat as far as it can go.
Christy Lee
I will push my seat back if my seat's built to be able to push back.
Chick McGee
I don't think you're wrong, but I don't do it.
Tom Griswold
I think you're wrong.
Pat Godwin
And it's kind of.
Chick McGee
He's right, though. They let you do it.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but they shouldn't. There's. That. There should be a thing.
Christy Lee
Fix the seat. Weld the seat.
Tom Griswold
As much as I don't. As much as I don't believe in democracy, what they should do is they should. The. The. Someone should get on the pa. Okay, we're to take a vote, and there's like a switch in your seat, and you press the button and there's. Okay, 75% say seats back. I'm going to count to 10. When I get to 10, everybody put them back at the same time.
Christy Lee
I've had the guy in front of me put a seat back, and I don't find it. Objection.
Tom Griswold
Really, to me, it's.
Chick McGee
Oh, it's really great.
Tom Griswold
Shoves your laptop into your chest. That tray thing.
Christy Lee
Really?
Chick McGee
I don't want the ability to delouse the head of the person.
Tom Griswold
Yes, very good.
Pat Godwin
Some of the other pet peeves include ignoring personal space, which kind of goes with what you're saying.
Chick McGee
There is no personal space on a plane.
Pat Godwin
No talking loudly on the phone.
Christy Lee
Hey, how you doing? What's that? Not nothing. Not a damn thing.
Tom Griswold
You're not allowed to talk on a phone on a plane.
Pat Godwin
No.
Tom Griswold
And is that happens? But is that real? I've always thought, is that going to affect the navigation?
Chick McGee
I think it's to control this.
Pat Godwin
And I have heard a phone ring in the air on approach.
Chick McGee
Yes. And it wasn't followed by a 10 foot turbulence drop?
Pat Godwin
No.
Chick McGee
You know how you're supposed to put it on airplane. On the plane. And I, the guy next to me last time I flew, like, look, pulled it up, looked at it and went, nah. And I'm like, if we crashed, beating you to death, like. But no one, obviously you don't have to, right? No, it didn't affect anything.
Tom Griswold
But I, but is it, I mean it's a nice rule because you don't want the guy sitting next to you talking the whole thing. It's actually for the communication with the other planes and that stuff. Not that you're going to crash.
Chick McGee
So it really would interfere. That's what they say.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
I'm not sure if that's true. I'm kind of skeptical. But, but why would they put something that critical in the hands of morons like us? I don't want to have, when I get on an airplane, I don't want to have anything to say about anything.
Christy Lee
I remember trying to make a call on a foot. You can't make a call, but you get to a certain.
Tom Griswold
I, I was in.
Chick McGee
The fact that there used to be phones on planes tells me that this is kind of bs.
Tom Griswold
Yeah. But I, I remember I was on the tarmac, I think it was in Detroit and they were, they were whatever. De icing the plane.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
And I'm not kidding. One of the pilots came back. We were any. I, I was in the, in the window seat. What do you think is all that ice off? And I wanted to say I don't want to have anything to do. You are the pro. I am an idiot.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
I'm not going to even vote in this. You decide.
Chick McGee
I was on a plane, they needed to de ice it, but they forgot the de icer and they had to use a credit card. We were there for eight hours.
Pat Godwin
Don't you hate that?
Tom Griswold
That's why I like CDs. You could take those jewel cases and just clean off your windshield.
Pat Godwin
Wider.
Chick McGee
When I flew out of Green Bay last year, they de iced half the plane. Like the right side of the plane. And we start backing up and the guy behind me says to the, the flight attendant, hey, are they gonna do the other side? And she goes, yeah, I was wondering about that. And you see her go up front and they pulled the plane back in
Tom Griswold
and did the other side again. Yeah, no, thank you.
Pat Godwin
Other things when you're traveling, treating employees disrespectfully, including flight attendants, train attendants, hotel staff, etc.
Christy Lee
Sure.
Pat Godwin
Playing audio without headphones.
Tom Griswold
Didn't we just have a thing saying that they're not to going to ununited?
Pat Godwin
But we never got to that story.
Tom Griswold
Well, yeah, they're going to actually like fine people.
Chick McGee
Or enforce it.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, they're going to enforce it. You can't.
Christy Lee
With good.
Tom Griswold
With good reason.
Chick McGee
Well, can we get that at the grocery store as well? What's the problem with the grocery store when people are just on their phone talk or listening to music? But Jeff, when they're with.
Tom Griswold
No other day I was at Target. Not just on the phone. Talking on the phone while checking out.
Pat Godwin
That's really disrespectful.
Tom Griswold
That happens a lot.
Pat Godwin
United Airlines says flight crews will now boot passengers who refuse to use headphones with their devices.
Christy Lee
If I can't talk to people while I'm checking out, if I can't talk to them, how am I going to stay in touch with my people? I need to stay in touch with my people.
Tom Griswold
I'm not sure what accent that is, but I enjoy this guy very much.
Pat Godwin
People don't take your shoes off on public transportation.
Tom Griswold
That's another one coming up. The must haves while traveling.
Christy Lee
Takes his feet off on the.
Chick McGee
He does.
Christy Lee
Shoes. I'm sorry? Shoes on the plane.
Chick McGee
I do. There's zero foot odor. And no one's the wiser. My feet. No one's looking down there. I was very wise to it, but not from the smell. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Josh, don't listen to what I'm about to say. Do something in your head. Okay. The next time we fly together, the assignment's going to be someone. Someone has to steal Josh's shoes mid flight. How funny. And then when he gets off the
Christy Lee
plane and roll the window down.
Tom Griswold
Oh, I can't wait. All right, you can come back now. Josh, welcome back. Take the blindfold off.
Chick McGee
All right. Yeah.
Tom Griswold
The radio blindfold.
Chick McGee
You guys were probably discussing about how it's such a good idea to take your shoes off on the plane.
Dan St. Paul
Yes.
Chick McGee
Yeah, yeah.
Tom Griswold
We're all gonna do it.
Christy Lee
Comfortable?
Chick McGee
All right. Yeah.
Christy Lee
Nice. You put your bare feet on the carpet in the plane.
Chick McGee
My stockinged feet.
Tom Griswold
Can you imagine what's on the floor of a plane?
Pat Godwin
Yeah, you know, but vacuum. What are you talking about?
Tom Griswold
You can't vacuum out those spirocates. The world is a dirty people have been having.
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Chick McGee
What do you think's on the armrest?
Christy Lee
People are having sex in the floor, in the plane.
Tom Griswold
You understand how gravity works. That's where it all lands. I rest my case. Now it's time to. We'll come back with the top 10 must haves while traveling.
Christy Lee
Huh?
Tom Griswold
I disagree with at least three of
Christy Lee
these food or comfort items.
Pat Godwin
We'll find out.
Christy Lee
Drinks, beverage.
Chick McGee
He disagrees with every one of them. He said no.
Tom Griswold
No. There's a couple of them that are out.
Christy Lee
Well, why are we doing them?
Tom Griswold
Because we're going to do when we come back.

The guy in the plane leans his his chair back, right. Just blow lightly in his ear.
Chick McGee
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Tom Griswold
Say something. Say something soft and sweet. Gum in his hair.
Christy Lee
What if he leans back and go meet you in the bathroom?
Pat Godwin
Actually, that's one of the pet peeves we didn't get to falling asleep on a stranger while on a plane. Oh, yeah, I've never done that. Has anybody ever done that to you?
Chick McGee
No. And I've never accidentally woken up or, you know, my head's on their shoulder.
Tom Griswold
No, thank you. Now we're talking about are we gonna
Pat Godwin

Tom Griswold
Nope.
Chick McGee
Combos.
Pat Godwin
What do you mean?
Tom Griswold
No, just gum to chew. That's it.
Chick McGee
Are you talking only flying here?
Christy Lee
Oh, yeah.
Pat Godwin
What if you're in the car, you got an eight hour drive, you don't have snacks.
Christy Lee
Are you saying you have to pack them and take them with you?
Tom Griswold
No, you stop.
Chick McGee
Yeah, I stop.
Tom Griswold
And yeah, you want to walk around, get your legs, go inside, but you'll
Chick McGee
pack like a bag of pretzels or something?
Pat Godwin
Yeah, yeah. Or yeah, so a protein bar too? Or. Yeah, you gotta take something. What if you get in a long layover somewhere?
Christy Lee
You know, the next thing you know, you're packing snacks. You're watching Lawrence Welk, you got bowls
Tom Griswold
of soup you gotta eat on the interstate.
Chick McGee
There was a family next to me. They had like a couple rows, like, you know, obviously a big trip. And they had a gallon bag, Ziploc bag of pistachios, unshelled. And they just kept passing them around and just shelling them straight onto the floor.
Christy Lee
No way. No way.
Chick McGee
I'm making a bit of it up. Like I got up, I go, you're really gonna leave that? And they didn't speak my language, so they didn't say anything.
Tom Griswold
Aha.
Christy Lee
There's never the highest compliment.
Chick McGee
They're not everybody. Airports. This is very complimentary.
Christy Lee
Oh, yes.
Chick McGee
I did a non description.
Christy Lee
It's like airports are 100 pistachios.
Tom Griswold
What's the restaurant that leaves all the peanuts on the floor? Texas Roadhouse. Yeah, sort of like that. Except.
Chick McGee
Yeah, except hey, Texas Air 30,000. Oh, you never leave peanut shells on the floor in a restaurant.
Christy Lee
Disgusting.
Tom Griswold
The height of insult again. I like that accent because it's. It really can't be pinned down. What a continent itself.
Pat Godwin
Other must haves include hand sanitizer.
Tom Griswold
Yep, got it.
Pat Godwin
No yeah, I've got it. I've got hand sanitizer, refillable water bottle.
Tom Griswold
Nope.
Pat Godwin
No, no. Neck pillow.
Dan St. Paul
No.
Chick McGee
Yes.
Christy Lee
I like a good neck pillow.
Chick McGee
Yeah, I like a neck pillow. I take. I travel with one.
Tom Griswold
Do you wear it in the. While you're walking down the.
Pat Godwin
Please tell me you don't wear it while you're walking.
Christy Lee
I stuff it down my pants.
Chick McGee
It goes around the handle, my suitcase handle when I walk.
Tom Griswold
You have one. One that it's designed so it's part of the Elvis collection. So it's got the what, the sort of spangled high collar?
Chick McGee
Yeah, it just looks like a high spank.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, it looks like.
Christy Lee
No, it's a Ted Kennedy high call.
Dan St. Paul
Like you.
Tom Griswold
You crash your car.
Christy Lee
Chapelquiddicky water.
Pat Godwin
Tissues. Yes, you gotta have tissues.
Christy Lee
Gotta have tissues. Yeah.
Pat Godwin
Disinfecting wipes.
Christy Lee
Yep. No, no, I want the germs.
Pat Godwin
Extra charging cables.
Tom Griswold
If you got a good enough phone
Pat Godwin
now, you gotta have cables
Chick McGee
extra.
Pat Godwin
But you have to have a cable to charge it when you get where you're going.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, but I don't want. I'm not going to carry my pocket for the plane ride.
Pat Godwin
Well, you carry it in your carry on.
Christy Lee
I carry my. Well, I don't make a big thing of it. It's a power grid for the whole thing.
Chick McGee
What do you mean?
Christy Lee
It's solar. I can power myself for a day and a half. That's right.
Pat Godwin
Portable power bank is on here.
Christy Lee
That's it.
Chick McGee
Oh, okay.
Pat Godwin
A noise canceling headphones. Yes. Copies and photos of any important documents. Yes.
Tom Griswold
Like the new. The new Swank.
Christy Lee
Copies and photos of important documents.
Pat Godwin
Yeah. In case you lose your pocket.
Tom Griswold
Like a copy of Swank.
Pat Godwin
Gentle, stop it.
Tom Griswold
Cherry.
Christy Lee
It's real important. Have you seen the. Yeah. You would be surprised how much an issue of Cherry comes in handy in a foreign country.
Pat Godwin
40% of those surveyed said the worst thing about traveling is other people. Exactly. Dealing with other travelers.
Chick McGee
Ah, the human race.
Pat Godwin
35% said the physical aches and pains that come with travel make it challenging and exhausting. And I'm looking at you.
Tom Griswold
So true. So true.
Christy Lee
What about the aches and pains of day to day life?
Tom Griswold
I'd like to see a yellow circle around the baggage claim thing. And you're not allowed to step.
Christy Lee
This really bothers you?
Tom Griswold
Yes, it always has. Because you got the whole family there standing.
Christy Lee
They're all excited to get their bags
Pat Godwin
and get on with their vacation.
Tom Griswold
Yes. But have everybody stand back there and then you have a designated person to go out and get Your bag?
Christy Lee
No, you wouldn't do that.
Chick McGee
I was just going to say, is there any chance that the Griswold family.
Christy Lee
Yeah.
Chick McGee
Does what he is saying?
Christy Lee
19 of them.
Tom Griswold
If you have. If you have the VIP card, you don't have to stand behind the yellow line.
Chick McGee
I know. Your sons wrote on that thing. You didn't, of course. There's no way you get them corralled.
Christy Lee
Oh, it's okay. So anyway, someone took it. Willie was up on riding one of the suitcases and someone got upset.
Chick McGee
Can you imagine? Yelling at him.
Tom Griswold
I did take the wrong suitcase once.
Pat Godwin
How far did you get?
Christy Lee
You mean like an empty one?
Tom Griswold
I got to the doors of the thing and I took another look and went, wait a minute. Now I have.
Pat Godwin
Do you tie the yarn around it?
Tom Griswold
No, I have. I found this place that can make luggage tags out of pictures.
Pat Godwin
Oh, yeah? So you put your own face on it?
Tom Griswold
No, no, I did. I've got, like, pictures of the kids skiing.
Christy Lee
You hear what he just said? I found this place.
Tom Griswold
Yeah.
Christy Lee
Go online.
Tom Griswold
It's great.
Christy Lee
That can make pictures on luggage tag.
Tom Griswold
I could take a picture of Josh.
Chick McGee
Huh?
Pat Godwin
Yeah.
Tom Griswold
Would you guys like me to send you my. I. Wait a minute.
Pat Godwin
Are you gonna make us luggage tags next year for Christmas with your.
Tom Griswold
Like these for luggage tags or the.
Chick McGee
Or the.
Tom Griswold
Or the cowboy?
Christy Lee
People have been doing this for, I don't know, I don't know, 25 years.
Tom Griswold
Yeah, I know, but I. The point is, I just discovered it. A. And B is that way when you grab. You're not going to grab the wrong bag. There's. There's Tom's face. That's mine.
Pat Godwin
There's no way that your family's putting their pictures on their luggage.
Tom Griswold
No, it's on mine. I don't care about their luggage. I want to make sure my stuff gets there. I don't want to go to ski trip and have no long underwear because
Christy Lee
I got the long bag.

In this fast-paced, sprawling episode of The BOB & TOM Show, hosts Tom Griswold, Chick McGee, Christy Lee, and their regular crew blend topical comedy, sports banter, listener letters, and interviews. Today’s tone is especially playful: recurring bits poke fun at everything from odd sports names to airline annoyances, with memorable sketches and genuine camaraderie. Special guest Dan St. Paul joins to discuss his iconic "first baseball game" bit and the new humor anthology Comedians Talking Baseball. Throughout, ongoing running jokes about feet, snacks, and life’s absurdities keep the mood light and laughter constant.
01:29 – 07:00, 130:27 – 131:57
Quote – Dan St. Paul as Harry Caray (03:44):
“Now Peter looks into Jesus for the sign. Jesus gives him the sign.”
“Holy cow, Peter denies it.”
07:05 – 14:27
20:36 – 28:50
48:27 – 56:47, Return at 61:19, 126:00
Quote – Christy Lee (49:28):
“Stubby Clapp – that’s the one they really couldn’t get penicillin to knock it out.”
09:10, 58:01 – 61:10, 120:05 – 121:35
150:04 – 157:10
Quote – Chick McGee (156:07):
“Josh, don’t listen to what I’m about to say. Next time we fly, someone has to steal Josh’s shoes mid-flight…”

Tom Griswold, baseball nostalgia (07:46):
“A lot of white guys there. Hey—we’re in the O’Reilly Auto Parts studios…”
Chick McGee (14:28):
“Groovy was...Yeah, Ash in the Evil Dead would say it—to be ironic.”
Christy Lee on sports names (49:28):
“Stubby Clapp – that’s the one they really couldn’t get penicillin to knock out.”
Tom (142:25):
“Artemis 2 does sound like the name of a Greek diner: ‘Where do you want to go tonight, honey?’ ‘How about Artemis 2?’”
Chick McGee on travel (150:56):
“When your passenger puts their feet on the dashboard...”
Christy Lee: "Dashboard?"
Chick: "Oh, in the car. This is on a plane: letting your child kick the seat in front."
The show’s energy is consistently playful, quick-witted, and a bit mischievous. Running jokes (Tom’s shoe insoles, Christy’s “hippie chick” look, Chick’s betting picks, Josh’s airplane feet) foster a sense of family and comedic rhythm, while deeper humor emerges from the group’s genuine knowledge of pop trivia, sports, and life’s oddities.
You’ll find a wild and hilarious blend of topical riffs, classic bits, quirky cultural trivia, and a few surprisingly heartfelt asides. Whether the team’s dissecting the nuances of baseball nostalgia, lampooning weird license plates, or delving into astronaut cuisine, the episode captures The BOB & TOM Show’s singular blend of irreverence, warmth, and shared laughter.
