A
Jazz day.
E
That's right, ladies, it is the Bob and Tom Show. We are live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Christy Lee's at the news desk.
F
Hi.
E
Pat Godwin's at the Music Center.
B
Hello.
E
Willie Griswold over at the NHTSA sports desk.
C
And there's a lot of sports today. It's the biggest time of the season for sports.
E
Oh, there's Ace Cosby. I'm Josh Arnold. There's Tom.
F
Good morning.
A
That was a live recording during Tribute to Jeff Jazz had some distinguished jazz players on that who I'm sure would appreciate it if I didn't mention them by name.
F
Probably right.
A
Any of them bad? Important. Important dates and important careers going on? Well, yeah. Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Program. Thanks very much for joining us. We do have a request I know. I've been gone for a week. Willie and I were on vacation. And while we were gone, Pat Godwin finally got his guitar back.
B
Yeah.
A
Let me clarify. There have been eras of your life. When I say you got your guitar back, that.
B
Not from Hawk.
A
From pawn shop. Yeah, yeah, yeah. In this case, your ability to play is returned now that your shoulder has been surgically repaired by expert surgeons and you have gone through the proper rehabilitation. And your rotator cuff is back in rotation.
B
If it is back in rotation. Yeah, yeah.
C
Pat, did you find that the muse. The siren called even louder when you couldn't play your sweet, sweet music.
B
Oh, my God. No kidding. I could. Not being able to play was driving me nuts.
A
I could imagine.
B
I express myself through my instrument. When I'm done with that, I pick up the acoustic, and that's how I. That's how I enjoy life. Life.
A
Did you actually write any music while you were.
B
You know, I wasn't able to. I forgot how really attached I am to the guitar. Like, I'll sing in the car and write something, but I kind of got shut down because of all the pain creatively, so.
C
That makes sense.
B
It's coming back now.
A
Yeah, I see. Well, we have a request. This is very unusual to get a request right out of the box, but this is. This is that.
B
Okay.
A
And I. Now that I've done that, I've, of course, lost the piece of paper.
C
Yeah.
A
It was written on. Here it is. Here it is right here where I placed it 30 seconds ago. Good morning, guys and gal.
F
Oh, hi.
A
A nice letter from Stevie. He said there's a song I heard you guys do. I believe it's called Coke on a Boat.
B
Oh, coke in. Yeah, in the boat.
A
I've been telling a friend of mine about it, but I can't find it anywhere online.
E
I find that hard to believe since
B
I've done it 82 times.
C
Is Google broken?
A
Well, the coconut boat, there were a number of variations on it. I think I did a little bit of homework when I read this. I believe it was based on this news story. This comes to us from CBS News Distinguished Broadcasting Corporation. In this case, authorities seized between 35 and 40 tons of cocaine from a ship in the Atlantic Ocean.
E
I forgot that it was that much.
D
A lot.
A
Yeah, there's probably. I don't know much about chips, but 30, 40 tons of anything. Probably not a lot of room for much else. No, we have to have 40 tons of cocaine and 16 watermelons.
F
Hard to hide that, right?
C
Yeah. A lot of metric Conversion to figure out what's going on there. Grams, Pounds, officials.
A
Let's see. From the AFP news agency said that the Civil Guard intercepted the vessel in international waters near Spain's Canary Islands.
F
Oh, lovely spot.
A
Officers discovered that the hold of the ship completely stuffed with bales of cocaine, making it what they're terming a historic seizure. I'd like to do a little bit of.
G
A.
A
Little bit of a grammar lesson for everybody, since you hear it wrong most of the time. If it had been an historical seizure.
F
Yeah.
A
It would have been cocaine wrapped in, like, Abraham Lincoln's papers. You see, there's stuff of historical interest. Never mind. It was an historic seizure. 20 people were arrested. And once again, 40 tons of cocaine on a boat. And that's the background on this request from Stevie.
B
You know, I think when a singer has done a song 82, 83, 84 times, they tend to. They don't get bored with it, but they start to flirt with the melody. The audience doesn't want that, but it just happens naturally because the creator, they tend to take a little too much liberty, you know? Oh, I'd like to know where you got the cocaine. I'd like to know where you got the cocaine. You give me your name. Oh, we might set you free. Tell us who gave it to you. We might give you some immunity. Some immunity. We might set you free. Cause there's coke in the boat.
C
Coke in the baby maybe Coke in
B
the boat, the boat over.
A
Coke in the boat.
B
Coke in the boat Maybe co cannibal. Coast Guard's watching you and will you learn While your drug boat drags a little in the stern? Tourists found a stash in the Keys Border patrol makes these waters drug free. There's coke in the hole. So please explain Someone has the answer for this Cocaine. Yeah, we like to know where. I like to know where you got the cocaine.
A
All right, Jose Feliciano, back to the national anthem.
E
You got the cocaine? Yeah, we like the Nowhere.
B
You got the cocaine, Everybody. Coconut boat.
A
Yeah.
D
All right.
A
There we go.
F
That was wonderful.
A
The interpretive version. You got your chops back.
B
Oh, yeah.
C
That's not even my. My favorite song of yours about cocaine. I'm a. I'm a washed up on the shore in Hialeah. Kind of. I go for the B side. Everybody knows that about me when it comes to Pat.
A
God, I can't believe. Will it. I was gonna say that. Do you know that one?
C
That's not what I was saying.
A
No, no, I love. That's one.
C
I really was trying to compliment Pat and not make him work more this early.
A
He hasn't worked in a month. Yeah, good point. I remember as a kid, first time I ever heard the name Hialeah. It must. There's a horse track there, right?
F
I believe you're right.
A
It's always. It was referenced in a bunch of movies because, you know, when you grow up, a kid in the Midwest, you don't realize there are all these other cool places, then you finally start hearing about them in movies, and Hialeah was one of them. And we did have a. We had a famous. And the famous news story about Hialeah, and it happens to rhyme with something. You ready to go with Pat? You want to explain what this one, Sivan?
B
Yeah. A bunch of cocaine. They call cocaine down in Florida.
A
The cocaine. Okay, we got it.
F
Washed up on the shore, dude.
B
Washed up on the shore outside of Miami. You guys, of course, live down in Miami, so. Yeah. Down there in Hialeah. So cocaine washed upon the shore in Hialeah. Selling it on the streets is a bad idea. If you find it, call the cops asap. Cocaine washed up on the shores. Now we play a little game. You guys guess the rhyme. I met a girl in Key west named Maria Made love on the beach, Got diarrhea. Ate a Cuban sandwich, got diarrhea. Cocaine washed up on the shore in Hallelujah. There you go. There's the cocaine. There's the huge chunk.
F
I've heard it in a while.
A
That was. That would know. That was from April. Boaters in South Florida found a large sack offshore of Key Largo. And there was also reports of the cocaine packages floating ashore as far north as Hialeah. What a beautiful name. Hialeah.
C
And it's very convenient for us, you know, if that happens in Fort Lauderdale. Coral Gables. No song.
B
No song.
C
Doesn't sound as good.
A
You can't make love to Maria and Coral Gables and get.
F
No.
A
Yeah.
F
Diarrhea. I mean, gonorrhea.
D
No.
A
Well, you could get gonorrhea. I'm sure people have gotten gonorrhea.
C
Christy, don't let that hold you. You can get gonorrhea anywhere, you know.
G
Really?
F
Yeah, anywhere.
A
But they do call diarrhea the honeymoon killer, as a general rule.
B
Yeah.
A
Well, thank you very much. Coming up, we have a special guest, speaking of water and the sea. In this case, it's a lake. The lake. I was. I was slowly heading toward the St. Lawrence Seaway, making my way to fresh water.
C
What are you working on over there? Earlier you said this is that and I knew you were going to be a little afraid today. I knew you were working a little slow.
F
Are you sleepy? The puppy keep you up all night?
A
He's over. He's doing great.
F
Boy, that was a big lie.
A
He's a puppy. This, this little dog is. I mean he's. I've had many dogs in my life, but I've never had one that was only eight weeks old. So he's like a low. He's smaller than a loaf of bread, this little guy. He's got that puppy breath.
F
Yeah.
A
And those dragon teeth. Oh, look at the little.
C
You better be careful. You might finally learn empathy. This could be crazy for you. This could be a life changing opportunity for me.
A
I'll try. I'll try. What I was trying to get to was Jim Dreyer, swimmer is going to be our special guest. We met Jim a few years ago when he swam across Lake Michigan.
F
Is he in the water now?
A
Well, not this moment. I mean he's do. He's got another thing that he's going to be doing that we're going to be finding out about it. We'll tell you about. It's very cool. Some a fun summer adventure coming to us from Jim Dreyer. Also, as Willie pointed out, we have some interesting things going on in the world of sports, including a world record. We have a marijuana versus cigarette smoking, a survey that's quite interesting.
C
I'll take cigarettes.
F
Really?
C
You know, one on one fight cigarettes over marijuana. Oh, yeah.
F
Okay.
C
They'll win. Yeah. Are you kidding me? Those things are deadly.
A
We all true. We also have something from the Mr. Obvious Institute about music and horror movies. And we have perhaps an episode of Mr. Obviously an exciting thing about tattoos, something new in the world of tattoos and the pain that is associated with them while getting them. We'll find out about all those things, but right now we're going to find out about how Christy Lee got to work today.
F
Well, I drove in my beautiful Tucson hybrid. You could be driving to work in a Hyundai because it's the getaway sales event going on right now at your local Hyundai dealer. They have some amazing deals on SUVs like the Hyundai Santa Fe or the Santa Fe Hybrid. I prefer the Tucson or Tucson Hybrid. A little bit more sedanish, I guess. I call that a crossover suv. Whereas the Santa Fe will take you off roading if that's what you're into. There's also the Elantra, which is their beautiful sedan, and of course the all electric Ioniq 5 or Ioniq 9. So get to your local Hyundai dealer and get away with a deal you'll love during the Hyundai getaway sales event. Or visit HyundaiUSA.com for more details.
A
And you drive which one, Christy?
F
The Tucson Hybrid.
A
Yeah. Isn't that cool, the way they name cars? Like Tucson is a cool place.
F
Santa Fe, cool place.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
F
I have no idea where Ionic is. Well, Ionic, Iowa, that's. There you go. That's a place.
A
But I wonder if they, they run through cities that are perceived as being really cool. Probably because that is just Santa Fe. You know, it's artsy.
F
We loved and Tucsons are one of our favorite cities. Fell in love and there you go.
A
Now, perhaps we could come up with names of cars that other companies won't be making. I got a couple based on, based on cities where maybe things didn't really work out.
C
Chevrolet. Waco. Not coming.
F
Yeah, that's not a good one.
A
Platteville. It just sounds like it's not gonna move when you put it in gear. These are all theories we're working on. We'll come back with your letters and more Wheelbills. We'll still be here in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.
E

F
Hello, Pat.
E
God. Music control.
B
Hello, Josh.
E
There's Willie G at the NHTSA sports desk.
C
Hey, man.
E
Ace Cosby's at the control board.
F
Hey, Josh.
E
I'm Josh. And there's Tom.
A
Hello, Josh. It's always a pleasure to see you, sir. You're looking extra handsome today.
E
Oh, how kind of you. Thanks.
A
Just kidding. Now.
E
Good one.
A
That's how we like to start the day. By the way, I just have a couple. A couple of complaints here.
C
No, for us.
A
Yeah, I know. I just. In general, I. I'd like to advise all businesses out there. No one wants to hear the phrase back to school sale. What are you doing?
F
Your kids back to school yet?
A
No, they got another week. Which by the way, should be illegal. Don't get me started on that. Hey, let's send the kids to school. Now that it's hotter than hell, doesn't it bother anybody else here? Back to remember?
E
Yeah, I still get a twinge of.
A
No, it's the back to School sale. Oh, boy.
F
I'm an opposite. I loved Back to School. I love buying school supplies.
C
Me too.
F
I loved it.
C
It's fun.
F
I couldn't wait to go back to school. Yes. I was that girl.
A
You're that. You're that chick.
F
Yeah. I love it.
A
You forgot to. You forgot to give us the quiz, Ms. Grundy. Oh, thanks.
C
I don't think that's what she's saying.
F
I'm not saying that. I just enjoyed school.
C
Part of it's you get to see your friends again. You get to meet a new teacher you don't know. See if there's any new cute girls at school. That was always fun.
A
I went to an old boys school.
F
Well,
A
Has anybody else?
B
Not Travis.
A
Is anybody else. Not growing own pubic area?
C
I wonder who gets to play Juliet this year.
A
Okay. I'm just saying. I just. The back to school thing I find a little. Don't remind me. Okay.
F
Yeah, I'm sorry. You're still in that. You know, you could have stopped a long time ago, dude.
B
You could have thought this through a little better.
A
It's just me. I get into my kid head.
E
Yeah.
A
I mean even Josh. I was asking Josh yesterday about a concert and he said something that I've been. He. I don't. I think he did it unselfconsciously. One of my favorite bands, for example, is coming to town and someone are you gonna go? And I said, not in a school night.
D
Yep.
F
Say that all the time too.
A
Because I get up at 3 in the morning. I can't. Well, it's midnight. I'm home. It's 12:30. Midnight. Whatever.
C
Can I ask you a question, and you can be candid about this? I asked my sister Finley if she finished her summer reading. And she goes, I finished my summer reading in June. And I just go, that's so funny. I don't think I ever finished my summer reading. Is Finley maybe a little easier to raise than me or some of your other children? Because I feel like she's super responsible. I feel like you kind of killed it with this one because you had five to practice with.
F
Everybody.
A
Everybody has their own thing. I can't believe you mentioned this. I had a summer reading book that I never finished, and I was actually thinking about going. I didn't think about it. I went online and I found it still out there.
F
You mean when you were in school?
A
Yeah. And I thought, I should really finish that thing.
F
What book was it?
A
Oh, it was called Edge of Awareness, and it was a bunch of essays. And I was thinking about it, sadly, because of all the fires going on out west. And there was an article by Jack Kerouac when he was. He spent a summer as a fire watcher.
D
Cool.
A
Back in the day, when you would have to. They would hire college kids in high schoolers to go out to a tower and watch for fires. And I remember it was really good. And I thought, gee, I probably should finish that before I go back to Mr. Manley's English class. It was a few years back. Imagine, Mr. Manley is probably looking for his dentures in a dark room at a nursing home right now. Or maybe he finally jumped. I'm not sure one of the two.
B
Did you have summer reading, Josh? I don't remember.
F
I don't.
E
There were programs where it was, like, if you read certain books throughout the year, like, if you hit a number, then you got prizes or something. So you would. You could continue that in the summer. But nothing required, right?
F
Yeah. Our library would do that.
A
We had a list we had to read.
E
Gotcha. Yeah, I've heard of it, but we didn't have it.
C
I remember in seventh grade being so pissed off because David Copperfield was not a book about a magician. That's a bummer.
E
They made David Copperfield a summer reading book for you.
C
Oh, yeah, dude.
G
Jeez.
C
I went to boring university. You bet. Oh, yeah.
E
Yeah.
A
That's tough. That's rough. In any event, if you're a retailer out there, I guess you've got to have the back to school sign just to kind of depressing for the kids. So we're all having fun right now. Except here because I brought this up but I was and I got thinking about there's a certain sort of hipness to the names of cities and stuff like you were talking. You drive a car called a Tucson.
F
Sure.
A
I know you're a big fan. It's a great niche name. They make that company Hyundai makes a Santa Fe which is a great place. Super cool. Everybody's hip but you know what I mean. There are certain towns that. For example there are a lot of songs. One of the best songs out this summer is a song about Texas. Oh, you haven't heard that one yet?
F
No, no.
C
Oh, Morgan Waller Langley. You've heard it for sure.
A
He's choosing Texas. I can tell it's a great song and any. But. But it's sort of hipper. You know what I'm saying? Texas, a lot of songs about it. Tennessee, a lot of songs about it. You know you don't hear a lot of tunes. You hear a lot of tunes about I don't know, Rhode Island, Delaware.
F
Beautiful country though.
A
No, but I'm just saying there are certain. There are certain cities. You're not gonna have a car. Have you seen the new Chevrolet? Cleveland?
G
Sure.
A
I mean I grew up around there.
C
It's Malibu has a better ring to it.
F
Yeah.
A
There's a certain hipness. You're not going to say it's all new. The Ford Gary. Fresh out of Gary.
E
I just call any stolen car.
A
You're not going to get the. The. The foreign cup. The BMW. Newark just doesn't not hip but there seems there's again songs and the things that are much more. How many songs are there about California?
F
A lot.
A
Yeah. Many many, many, many California dreaming.
F
Yeah.
A
But they're there.
C
Hotel California probably a third and a fourth one.
A
Oh many, many, many.
B
Californic.
F
Yeah.
A
There you sure. Whereas I can I guess maybe every state has at least one. You got north to Alaska.
F
Oh don't. No.
A
Yeah.
E
Rhode Island's tough though that I. I don't know any songs that nothing.
F
Providence.
B
No song about Newport.
A
Yeah. Were you. Were you disappointed when you found out the Rhode island was actually attached to the mainland?
E
Yeah.
A
That's just not right.
E
And there's really should be called highway mainland. I don't know what an R H O D E is but yeah. What is.
C
What are they getting To. With that thing. Let me know what that is, bud.
A
I think he was a slave owner.
E
I'm not sure.
C
There we go. Cheer everybody up in the morning.
A
But you're not gonna get. I just. My. The car thing kind of bugs me.
C
Yeah, I hear you.
A
You wouldn't have for example, a.
B
Let's see.
D
The.
A
The. The Pontiac Deadwood. Nice town, makes a good western movie. But hey, my car wouldn't start. Well, of course it would. You bought a Deadwood. What'd you expect? Well, so now we can move on from there and grab our. Grab our stack of mail which apparently. Am I the only one that has any?
F
Pretty much.
A
Oh, sorry about that.
C
I got a brief letter over here, I think, somewhere.
A
Okay.
E
Oh boy. Why apple don't far fall far from the tree. Do it?
B
I don't know what's going on right now.
C
We're talking about cities right now.
A
Okay, Sorry. I do have this. This is from someone who calls himself K. Striker.
E
K. Striker?
A
Yeah. I used to live in wichita, Kansas for 38 years. I attended WSU, obviously. Wichita State University.
F
Yes.
A
Wooshock. There are two division schools who have some interesting mascots. In Topeka, there's the Washburn Ibods. Oh, that's cool. It's a British looking chimney sweep guy with a bucket, a broom and he's dressed in black. Oh, cool.
E
Kind of cool for the crane,
A
I guess. I guess they could have gone with the Cranes, I suppose. The other. No,
F
Josh. I immediately thought crane too.
A
But I never went to that school. Don't blame me. And the other one is the. The Pittsburgh State, whose mascot is the Gorillas. They used to have a baby. Gorilla?
F
No, alive baby.
A
Then they went to a human in a cheap costume.
C
Wow,
F
that is not a good idea.
E
How'd you like to be the guy who would take the baby out of the gorilla's arms?
D
No,
E
that's not a good gig.
A
She's looking the other way.
D
Go quick.
A
Well, thank you. This is from K. Striker in Ocala, Florida. Thank you. Will you got a letter.
C
I had a letter. I lost the letter. It was someone recommending me where to get hot chicken in Nashville. And I forget what they recommended, so we'll just keep that open ended. If you know where to get hot chicken in Nashville, let me know.
A
Once again, you're going to Nashville, Tennessee. Wednesday night.
C
Yeah. Tomorrow. Open up for Frank Caliendo down there at Zany's. Gonna be a blast.
A
That'll be good. That'll be a great show.
F
Great club.
A
Are we gonna get Frank to Call in tomorrow.
C
Yeah, I'll bug him.
A
Yeah. Well, okay. Good. Good. Dear Tom, your new doggy's very cute. Oh, I. I got a new puppy. There's a picture of me holding him. He looks kind of. He looks. In the picture, he looks much bigger than he is because I'm. He's in front of my face.
G
He's.
A
He's a little smaller than a loaf of bread. Just a very little guy. Eight weeks old. There he is. Look at that guy. Look at that face.
F
He's very cute.
B
He's the weird guy in the right.
A
I believe that's Utah. I believe that's that. I believe that's me at three in the morning. Let's see. You said his eyes are blue. They may or may not remain blue. They may start turning a different color after eight weeks. So he's eight weeks old. So we'll see. I think it's some genetic thing.
D
Yeah.
C
You guys have matching baby blues.
A
Yeah. You can mention Weimaraners because Chick isn't there. Chick has stated that Weimaraners freak him out. This dog is not Weimaraners. Yeah.
F
Are the ones. They dress up as people a lot? They're gray.
A
Yeah. They're kind of a brownish.
F
Were you here when we were talking about that? No, it's a vizsla that my friend has. Not the Weimer Iimer.
A
But anyway, this is from Ivan in Wichita. A Weimaraner lover.
G
Ah.
F
Is this.
A
Isn't there. There's a famous set of photographs.
F
That's what we were talking about.
A
Weimaraners dressed up.
D
Yes.
A
Yeah. Very, very funny. You guys were talking about Lucille Ball while I was gone.
E
Not really.
F
We mentioned her passing.
E
I mean, it was two seconds.
F
Yeah, exactly.
A
This is our second letter. I had.
E
I know. Well, that's what happens when listeners d our content. Did she.
G
Did she.

F
That wasn't even.
E
Why somebody said a town in New York and go. And Chick said, is Lucille Ball from there?
F
That was it.
E
That was it.
F
That literally was it.
A
I was not here. I do not. I do not edit these letters. I do not filter them. Lucille Ball came from western New York, not upstate. And all capital letters. This is from Dan Craig, who says, not the James Bond Dan Craig. I would.
E
Can you imagine if Daniel Craig.
C
He was a friend of the show. Oh, my goodness.

Lucille Ball is From somewhere near Jamestown. Yes, Bemis Point. Whatever that.
D
That area.
A

Oh, don't go there.
E
Mine's made out of straw. My neighbor, though his is named out of sticks.
C
Hey, buddy, I don't want to scare you, but I got a wolf that
E
you're gonna worry about. I'm already very scared.
A
Is your brick house painted?
E
He's coming to my house first.
F
My brick house is not painted. It's the original brick. Ah, I know, I know. It's beautiful. I love my brick house.
C
Is it mighty? Mighty, yes. Letting it all hang out.
F
It is. You try to start a fight. Is that what you're doing?
E
You prefer painted brick?
F
He does. I brought it up.
B
I do not.
A
Let me explain. I like that. I know what's. What is the word? Distressed brick. So it's like used brick. So it's all these. It can be really ugly so that you put it up, then you paint it. And so it's. It's all white.
F
Okay, so you do like distressed at all, right? It does not if it's all white.
D
No.
A
It's got little nicks in it.
F
But that.
C
Man, you're difficult today.
F
There's no. There's no change in color.

Just refinance it and grab some of that equity. This is what American financing specializes in.

F
Hi.
E
Pat Godwin's next to her.
B
Hello.
E
And they're across the way at the Nits Sports desk. It's Willie Griswold.
C
Good morning.
E
Ace Cosby's at the control board. Howdy. I'm Josh Arnold. And there's Tom.
C
Oh, yeah.
A
Hey, listen, Willie's going to be opening up for Frank. Calendo. We got to get Frank on the blower. As they used to say back in the days. Get him on the blower. At least in the movies they did.
D
Yes.
A
Never with a straight face. Case had anybody say, hey, it's the boss on the blower. But in any event, whoever is blowing or not, you can check out Willie G. And Frank Caliendo Wednesday evening in Nashville, Tennessee, at the Great Zanies. And please do now this next letter. I. I would have been somewhat, I guess, maybe holding this in doubt out, except I knew a guy with this last name.
F
Oh, okay.
A
So that maybe if you did, too, that will make this more real for you. But the letter comes to us from Jake. He said you were talking about inappropriate names. Years ago, my dad bowled in a league with a guy whose last name was Enos. E, N, I, S. In this case, Enis. The guy that I knew, his last name was E, N, O, S. However, I can assure you. Yeah. That we referred to him as Enos the penis. Okay. Because who wouldn't?
E
Would you go, enos the penis or Anus?
B
Yeah. I thought I was an anus. Yeah.
G
Yeah.
C
That's what I thought was.
A
I don't know why we didn't think of that.
E
Oh, so you went penis.
A
Yeah. Oh, everyone called him Enos the penis.
E
Yeah.
B
Huh?
A
Yeah, they did. But now, in this case, our letter writer's friend. His dad's friend was named Enos, with an I, E, N, I, S. My dad bowled in a league with a guy named Pete. Enos.
F
No way.
A
If you've ever bowled in a league in those days, you know the scoreboards and score sheets. Yeah.
G
Yes.
A
The way they worked. It was your first initial and last name projected onto the beam above.
E
Wow.
A
Every single week, right there for everybody to see. The scoreboard proudly said, P, period, E, N, I, S. No joke. That's exactly how it appeared. A bowling alley full of grown adults had to pretend they didn't notice. I still think about it every time.
D
Wow.
A
Those were the days. Yeah. Willie, have you ever bowled in a place where they have the old fashioned,
C
like the overhead projector, kind of where
A
they have the sheets and the huge pencils?
C
No. And I also don't know the math, how that is a spare worth more. Is it like a multiple multiplier situation?
A
The spare means.
F
No, don't. Don't even try. People don't have to know this. The machine does it for you. You don't have to worry about it.
C
Yeah, I'm sorry I brought it up. You know, that was actually a pretty big mistake on my end. Let's move on here. Hey, David Rush. What's he up to? I love that guy.
F
We're doing that. Not ready for that yet.
C
Okay, we're not doing that. My bad.
F
I'm kind of sleepy because my daughter was flying overnight to Dublin, Ireland.
B
Oh.
F
Oh. Landed safely about an hour ago. Thank you. But yesterday, Jack in Linden, Pennsylvania, heard Pat's Irish song and loved it.
B
Oh, thank you, Jack.
F
So he would rather. He would like to hear it again, if you wouldn't mind.
A
Oh, this is something new. Now you've been unable to play guitar.
F
Oh. And he also want to know if you've heard of an Irish sport called hurling.
B
Josh and I were talking about this. I have not. But I watched Gaelic football for the first time and loved it.
F
Okay.
B
And I was in the studio with our producer Alan Johnson and my buddy and. And I'm going on and on about how much I gravitated towards this Irish football. Man, I love this and. Because I guess it's just in me, when you see stuff like that, that's. That's anything Irish.
F
Right.
A
And then he has gay look. Football is what exactly?
B
Well, it's. It's like soccer, but every three steps you have to either bounce it or hit it like a volleyball. And there's a touch of rugby.
A
Oh, I thought you were going to say every three steps you have to stop and have a drink.
B
You come loaded. I mean, you don't have to.
A
Oh, I see. Arrived stoned, like they used to say in the Florida license.
B
And there's 70 minutes, 35 a half. And there's two nets. Nets. Three points for the lower net. And I think two or one. Somebody can correct me for the higher net, which is like a football.
F
Oh my gosh.
B
Football posts.
A
It's like skee ball and it's there.
B
It's non stop action and it's a lot of scoring. So I really liked it. But the point was he says, man, you love this kind of stuff. I told him I grabbed gravitate towards it. How Irish are you? And that inspired this particular song. People ask my ethnicity. I tell him I'm Irish as Irish can be. I Like the Pogues and I like you, too Would you like to have little Irish in you? How Irish am I? Well, let me think I got the gifted gal But I like to drink whiskey in the jar is my jam that's how Irish I am oh, that's how Irish I am oh I play guitar in an Irish bar I put Guinness on me lucky charms I eat corn while I river dance I hate England, I hate France Like a red headed girl who tells dirty jokes Has a shamrock tattoo Curses and smokes I like my stew with potatoes and lamb that's how Irish I am oh, that's how Irish I am oh, Irish I am An Irish I be Even though I was born in Wilkesbury I like to laugh, sing and shout I like beer, I like stout I spend money like a sailor on leave I see trouble I roll up my sleeves where's the fight and what's it about? I leave a party never say goodbye that's how Irish am I Hand me that shepherd's pie Spent a night in jail Too many black and tans that's how Irish How Irish I am
A
oh, that's nice.
F
Very Irish.
A
Remind me to tell you something about that song. That's very nice. Nice bet.
B
Thank you.
D
Now.
A
And Irish you are. Oh, boy. Yeah. Now, did you know that sometime in. In certain parts of England the term Irish is a pejorative term for a toupee?
B
No.
F
What?
C
He's got an Irish.
A
Yeah, See there, You see the Irish on that guy?
F
Do people in Ireland, are they known for toupees?
B
Well, we're known for being the Polish joke of English people. Like where the Polish show.
F
Okay.
A
Yeah. One particular friend of English friend of mine would always say that. Did you see the Irish on that guy?
C
Did you guys used to see a lot of wigs out? I feel like I don't. I don't think I'm with you, Willie.
B
You don't see him like you have gone down.
E
They've either gotten much, much better, I'd
C
imagine that's part of it.
E
But you still see the bad ones? Yeah, every now and again.
A
Yeah.
F
I think being bald is more accepted too much. Maybe much more acceptable. But.
A
Yeah, I saw a really bad one at the airport. But, I mean, there are thousands of people.
E
Was it an older gentleman?
C
Did he take it off at tsa?
A
God, that's great.
E
You should have to.
A
That would be so humiliated.
B
Force.
A
I'm surprised they don't do that.
F
Well, the snaps would make the thing go off, wouldn't it?
A
It was one of Those things. There was also a guy at the gym. Remember that guy? Maybe used to see him.
B
Pat.
A
It was so obvious because it would be kind of this dry thing on his head and then there'd be this, just like this line of sweat.
F
Wet.
A
Huh. Going down where the, the hair would be wet from just like the one inch down. But that's a fair question. I wonder if toupee sales are way down.
F
I would.
B
I think I'm gonna say yes.
F
Yes.
A
But I mean there are some really
E
good ones out there and then, and then some bad. And I always see them on older, Older dudes.
C
Yeah.
E
Who I either just don't care anymore or they're unaware that it's so bad.
A
There were a lot of, there were a lot of actors that. Well, there are a couple of them that would like Burt Reynolds would be very frank that he was wearing one. I think Elton John, kind of fairly open about it, isn't he? Oh, yeah, yeah.
E
I always loved when Rip Taylor would move.
A
Shatner's got a really good one.
B
And Sinatra only wore his for movies and TV stuff. He took it off at Palm Springs and at home. He was, had no, no ego about the, that he just worked for the movies.
A
But we've learned something today.
F
What's that?
A
The English slang term for a toupee. Okay. That's a great song, Pat.
B
Oh, thank you.
A

Hi there. It's the Bob and Tom Show. We are live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. It's great having you with us. There's Christy Lee at the news desk.
F
Hello.
E
Pat Godwin's there.
B
Hey, Josh.
E
Willie G. Sitting at the Sports and Leisure desk.
C
Good morning.
E
There's Ace Cosby. Hello, I'm Josh Arnold. And there's Tom, I believe. What do we have a world record coming up and all kinds of things.
G
Yeah.
A
We're gonna talk with Jim Dreyer, swimmer.
E
It's an ironic name for a swimmer, isn't it?
F
It sure is.
A
Oh, it should be Jim Wetter.
E
Yes, it really should. I never thought about Jim Soaked
A
better than Jim Sank.
F
Jim floats.
A
We were talking about how certain city names have they're kind of cool.
F
That's why a lot of people name their kids after cities.
A
Yeah, Brooklyn was real popular.
F
Austin's real popular.
C
Dallas, Indy, like Indiana Jones.
A
Yeah. But yes, certain, there are certain towns. There are lots more songs written about them. You know, cool places like Memphis, Houston, Galveston. Galveston, that was Campbell.
F
Kansas City, here I come.
E
Kansas City, I would say, I would
A
argue that the song Galveston that made Galveston Elvis than hipper, whereas Memphis has already got its hip credentials. Nashville, of course. And Willie will be in Nashville tomorrow night with Frank Caliendo.
C
Great blogs. Thank you very much.
A
But you know, there's, there are certain cities that just have that certain hypnosis factor. I was looking for some cities that had the opposite. In Grays Harbor County, Washington, there is a town called, called Hump Tulips. I wonder if they pronounce. Maybe it's pronounced. Humpty Lips
E
is almost more offensive.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
But yeah, it's H U M P T U L I P S. Yeah. Humpty Lips sounds like a, like a purple giraffe on a kid's TV show, does.
E
Humpty Lips. You're who
A
named this fire? Fire. The Guy, you know, the weirdo.
E
Yeah. And get rid of that hippopotamus. Lick the slit.
B
We thought Tickle Me Elmo was a little racy. Yeah.
A
Lick. This was from Eastern Europe, right?
E
I know, but
C
I, I tuned up for half a second I came right.
A
We were talking about odd names. Guy whose parents. If your name. If your last name is Enos isn't even, even, even the most unclude idiot not gonna name their kid Peter any or anything with a P. No.
C
You got to think about first initial. You got to think about last name first, then first name. The way it's read in attendance I've had that can be a little silly sometimes.
F
And the three initials. If you put your middle and your. Your last name in the middle and then.
A
Yeah, we've talked. Yeah, that's absolutely a thing.
F
Yeah.
A
And I. I still haven't quite figured out why on towels I know they put the last.
F
Yeah, big mon.
A
So in my case, my initials are tbg but in the towels it would be T, then a big G then. Right.
C
I think it's probably like an ego thing.
A
Right?
C
It's your, your last name. It's what you're known for. Yeah, but would you that the, the biggest letter.
F
When people get married, they put like G and then T and K for the, the husband and wife. They ever do that? I don't know. I'm asking.
A
I, I Monogram towels is low on my list right now.
F
Yeah, I don't own any either.
A
I just would like.
F
Oh, he had a nerve.
A
Well, no. Ow, ow, ow.
C
Did you literally hit a nerve just now, Charlie Horse?
E
What happened? Oh, yeah, that's really funny.
F
Nice, nice, nice.
E
Let's all just enjoy this.
B
They happen more and more as you get older. Have you noticed lying in bed?
C
Do you need a banana or some Gatorade, man?
A
No, I, I just. I gotta get some water.
F
I need some electrolytes.
A
Yeah, the, the point is those, those towels and you know, like the. At your house, do you have. I call it a parlor bathroom?
F
Yes, we have a parlor bathroom.
A
When you walk in your house, there's a bathroom that it's not attached to a bedroom.
F
It's just anybody bath.
A
Yeah, yeah. And those. That's the one. Do you have one of those at your house?
E
Yeah.
A
Do you have hand towels in there?
E
Yes.
A
Now you're a practical man. I'm assuming that they're somewhat absorbent.
E
They are. And I'm with. Because I'm with you on this.
A
But you'll go to other people's Houses like, say, mine. And the towels in there, they might as well be made of aluminum foil, Right? Or wax paper.
C
You talk about your house like it's a hotel you have no power over, man. You gotta get some agency in your life.
F
You don't have the disposable hand towels?
A
No.
F
I would be surprised.
E
Those are great.
F
I have those in my. My half bath.
A
I can have Willie back me up on this next one. We were in an Airbnb on vacation, and this may not be true of the room you were in.
C
What do you got?
A
In my room, there were. Let me count them, at least four gigantic pillows on the bed that weren't functional pillows.
F
They were just for decoration.
A
Yeah. Huge ones there. And they. There were four of those. And then there were. Were two little ones.
C
Huh.
A
Like they're the size of a notebook, but sure. Puffy. So you go into the room and there's. There's. There's a large bed there.
F
Yeah.
A
And then there are two comfortable chairs. So what do you do? Of course, you take those decorative pillows,
F
put them in the chairs.
A
Put them in the chairs. Ergo, the chairs. No longer our chairs.
C
I get it. So then where does the cuckold sit? Right.
F
Right.
C
I've had this exact same issue. Dad, don't worry. I'm Put the pillows on the balcony, and I let my friend take a seat.
A
Now, in your case, I think, because you had the bunk bed, so did you take the extra pillows and throw them up on top?
C
I had one decorative pillow. And I had one, you know, those itchy flannel blankets that for some reason, I feel like you like Josh.
F
Oh, you mean the wool blanket?
C
I don't really know. It looks like a flannel shirt, and it is just so itchy. That was the decorative one that I had.
E
Oh, boy. Yeah. Cause good flannel should never be itchy.
C
Yeah.
A
But this extra pillow thing.
C
Thing.
F
I have those.
A
This is a girl thing to. Yeah, you're. You're never going to. You're never going to go.
F
Five extra pillows.
A
You're never going to go over to a guy's house and he's going to go, hey, I tell you what. I got the game on. You guys can't sit there because I had to. Had to move the 12 decorative pillows that I have over there.
F
Do you have them on your couch in your living room?
E
Yes,
A
we have those blankets you heave on the bed.
E
Yeah, I have four of them on my couch.
F
Two.
D
Four.
F
I have six.
G
Six.
F
Yeah.
A
What is this? What? I have four Is there a pillow lobby in Washington causing us to create pillows?
E
No.
F
You don't like pillows.
A
I like pillows. You sleep on pillows. I don't like those.
F
You don't put them behind your back when you're sitting on the couch. Or maybe under your wife's butt, perhaps.
C
That answer the question.
E
What Pat's getting at is something that. When you learn that.
D
Oh, boy.
C
That's a nice move.
B
That's a nice move.
E
Really helps everything.
C
The pillow trick, the wedge trick. It's just simple machines, man. Basic physics.
A
Well, I mean, we had the. I don't think you were here for this, Willie. Tell me all about Looks so stupid, but it works. These were the shoes designed to use on the toilet. They're like giant. They're like Gene Simmons platform shoes. And it's the equivalent of the Squatty Potty.
F
Squatty Potty.
B
Yeah, I've seen these.
C
There's that, there's the squatty. Am I the only person not having a terrible amount of trouble using the bathroom?
A
I know.
B
I'm with you on this one, Willie.
C
I don't get why all these products exist.
A
The Squatty Potty, Apparently. Apparently. Doctor recommended so. Yeah, but now they've got a. They've come up with a thing. They're like gigantic shoes.
F
You do you have to put your shoes on before you go to the bathroom?
A
I I. Yeah.
E
Yeah, you do. You have to put on these s. Shoes.
F
What a waste of time.
A
Do they have to take off your regular shoes?
F
Why would.
G
Yeah.
C
And do you put them on before you sit down or do you sit down and then put them on over?
F
Easier to have the potty.
A
I don't have that kind of talk time.
E
No. Godwin's take on this slayed me when
A
he Train is coming for this.
E
These are great. Until you die on the toilet, they find you.
G
Yeah.
E
And the paramedical. Look at this guy. And he's wearing his s shoes.
F
Okay, I miss this.
A
Yeah, they're ridiculous looking. We'll come back with it, Christy.
F
Okay?
A
I will. I will find it.
E
I mean, they're exactly what you're picturing. They're large platform shoes. That clown like.
B
Yeah, they're huge.
C
If I'm gonna wear those, they're gonna be the Gene Simmons boots. I'm doing it all the way.
F
Oh, God. All the way up to the knee.
C
Oh, yeah.
A
Do you remember the Squatty Potty?
F
Of course. My mother had one when we.
E
Every gastroenterologist, dietitian, doctor I talked to in the last six months with some of the stuff I've been having all said. Absolutely.
C
For real.
E
Yeah.
C
Maybe I'll check it out then.
E
Now if everything's fine, you. You know, maybe.
C
Yeah.
E
I'd say keep up, whatever you're doing.
C
I mean, you know, I'm Tom Jr. I'm over here fibered out to. I'm overdose every day. So. Yeah, the kids stay in regular.
F
I found the story.
A
Okay.
F
A Gut health brand called Let Loose has released a new pair of shoes that aim to make toilet troubles a thing of the past. The so called S shoes. I can't say the word. Are a wearable form of the classic toilets.
C
That's really what they're called.
F
Resembling disco era pumps.
A
Do we have pictures of these?
F
7 inch.
A
They're there now.
B
That's what I was talking about.
D
About.
A
And they're.
F
They're slides. Elephant.
B
You want to be a dude caught in those. Dead.
A
Okay. And you slide your feet in like you would with flip flops.
E
Right.
F
For optimal. Optimal colon alignment and evacuation.
E
Maybe those are better than the squatty.
F
Now that I look at it, they're kind of cute.
E
Don't slip off.
C
Am I the only person. I figured they'd be like reverse heels. So it's almost like your feet are up in a stirrup. That was my initial wedges. That was my initial reaction.
F
They're available in small and large sizes on their website for 69.
E
Now she's reading a newspaper.
D
That's.
G
It's.
E
The name of the paper is Lamond. Wouldn't it have been a good inside joke if it had been La Merd?
C
Yes.
A
Yes.
C
I thought Lamound. Yeah. That's good.
A
Wow. I'm sorry. And those are. You can't say they're like. They use the S word.
C
Shoes.
F
Yeah, they do. So do you.
A
I remember my suggestion was they should be called Hush Poopies.
C
That's funny.
B
That's a good one.
C
That's a really good idea.
A
They're gigantic platform shoes. The idea is they thrust your knees higher. Should American toilets just be made lower? Would that be.
C
Wouldn't that be a solution? Right, because it gets your knees up there.
F
No, because your knees are still. Especially if you're short like I am.
C
I mean, like you ever had to sit in a little kid's desk at like parent teacher night or whatever.
F
Oh, I see. And your knees are way up.
C
Yeah. Because your knees go way up there.
E
Right, Right. But what about when you just want to stand up and pee? I feel like now it's messier.
C
Yeah, that's. You Know what? That's why I don't know.
A
Home.
C
Sometimes you get the sharpest minds in a room. You figure something out.
A
I could just see the commercials. It would be the good poop store, you know, the. The guys doing the testimonials. Well, before I had my issues. I. But now. And these have built in arches in case I want to walk anywhere between dumps. This is real, ladies and gentlemen. What do you Google? What was the name of the. Really, the real name of the company?
F
It's called Let Loose. I'm on their website right now.
E
What do they want for a page pair of those?
C
69. Okay, I remember because it's a hilarious number.
E
Yes.
F
They have a size small for women and a size large for men.
A
For an additional 50 bucks, can you get goldfish?
F
First drop. Sold out in seven days.
B
Sold out.
G
Wow.
F
Yeah. Yeah.
A

A
Thank you very much. I've lost my place. Where were we?
F
We are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts
E
Studios and you get a wide berth this week. You have a new puppy. So things are, I imagine you're a tad fresh, frazzled and excited and busy.
A
It is funny. It is funny, though. You bring a puppy and everybody has more or less the same reaction. Oh, look at the little fella.
C
Yeah.
A
Wagging his tail. And then I It's interesting the way God designed puppies to be as cute as possible with the sharpest teeth of any animal.
E
Oh, dude. Yeah, sharks.
A
Sharks. See, puppies, they back off. Well, I could eat them or he might bite me and I'd be in a lot of pain. He's a sweet little guy. We got a picture of a little guy. His name is Bernie and he's. He's a little dog.
E
Yeah, we look forward to meeting him.
A
Okay, I'll. Yeah, I'll bring him in.
G
All right.
F
No, you won't. Will you bring him in?
G
Sure.
E
Although, wait, wait two weeks. I still have kennel cough, so I can't.
A
So now we were today August 4th. Right.
F
National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day, ladies and gentlemen.
E
And I'll go ahead and just say my favorite cookie.
C
Yeah.
F
I have to agree.
E
I know it's not a bold stance, but there are so many cookies out there. That chocolate chip is still my favorite.
F
The classic chocolate. You know, the toll house cookie can't be beat. Thanks to Ruth Graves Wakefield.
A
And I read this story and my bubble was burst. Keep reading. See what it says.
F
Is credited with inventing the beloved treat in 1937. She and her husband Kenneth had a tourist lodge at the time called the Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts, where she cooked for the guests. The story goes Mrs. Wakefield had run out of baker's chocolate for a cookie recipe. Substituted semi sweet chocolate because she thought the chocolate would melt like the other chocolate would.
A
Sure.
F
But it turned out it stayed and we have the cookie that we enjoy now. However, historians note that the story is a myth and the recipe was not an accident. So she's still getting credit.
A
No, but that's one of those stories that they. They always tell the story about how accidents lead to great inventions.
F
Yes.
A
And that's one of the examples they always give. Ah. The chocolate chip cookie was invented by mistake. When the.
E
What changes the chip cookie into a toll house?
F
Yeah, well, the toll house is the brand of cookie, the chocolate chips. Because that's what they call them. The Toll house chocolate chips. Named after the end.
A
There's a. They go on and on and on and explain that that's not what really happened.
F
So what really happened? You didn't put that in the story. I don't know what happened.
A
They knew it was going to come out that way. See this woman?
E
Yeah. She still invented it. It just wasn't an accident.
A
It just. Yeah, it's okay. They weren't.
F
Well, it's fine.
E
I think she gets even more credit.
B
Yeah.
E
For having the. The foresight to know it was going to be great.
F
Right.
A
And I will argue that the best chocolate chip cookies have the huge chunks rather than the, the little chips. Yeah. Don't you like that?
F
I like chocolate.
E
Yeah. No, I, to me, Mrs. Fields at the mall is the best chocolate chip cookie you can get.
C
They kind of know what they're doing over there, don't they?
E
I mean, it's insane.
C
I like kind of a medium rare cookie.
E
Sure.
C
Little bite in the middle.
F
Oh, words.
C
Yeah. A little chewy in the middle. Yeah, it's nice.
A
And, and is it true that if you eat them today there's no calories at all?
F
Yeah, because it's national chocolate chip cookies.
A
You can eat those instead of.
E
Tom, where are you on the chocolate chip cookie cake that you know, the big round brownie almost.
A
It's okay if you have a lot of vanilla ice cream on it.
C
All right. Yeah.
A
I prefer the cookie though. And I like them warm.
E
Oh, yeah. Don't you? Yeah.
C
A cookie cake is really good when you're making a homemade ice cream sandwich. It's got that sort of chewy bite you like and it's not so hard. It's cooked evenly throughout in a way that a conventional cookie isn't.
A
Now, were you over at the house the day that we made ice cream sandwich sandwiches?
C
I was not.
A
It's really fun. It's a way to spend fifty dollars or go buy a eight dollar package of ice cream sandwiches. Yeah, you make that, you make the kind of the brown cake and then you buy the ice cream and you put it in the middle and.
F
Yeah, that where you're square around.
A
Well, you cut them however you want them.
F
Oh, okay.
A
But I mean the thing is I didn't know how you made yours and it's a nice process. And your, you know, girls or boys learn those. Oh, I mean things don't just all come in packages. You can actually start fresh and make them. Yeah, same way we make homemade pizzas. Again, you can spend 40 bucks to make pizzas at your house or go buy a really nice one from a variety of fine providers. Already made up and ready to go. Now we're going to whip over to the sports page. Willie G. Is sitting in at the NHTSA sports page for Chick Magee. What's going on over there?
C
David Rush and his family have set the Guinness World record for the fastest time to clear a single game of Hungry Hungry Hippos as a team of three.
E
Oh yeah. Mr.
C
Rush, his wife and his two children were able to clear the board in 3.75 seconds.
E
Not bad.
C
Beating the previous record of 4.83 seconds. The successful attempt marked Mr. Rush's 200th record title, making him only the third person in history to concurrently hold 200 Guinness World Records.
A
He did it. Do we have any video on this? David Rush, a good friend of the show. Show. A personal hero of mine.
F
Well, at least he spent time with his family.
C
I mean, he spent three seconds with his family, right?
A
Yeah, well, I mean, they had to. They had to do it many, many times before they got it. As he said, if you think to the kids, look, you're gonna. You're gonna be hungry because you're like, you're not eating dinner until we break this world record. After the hippos got the record, you're in. So now do we know video?
C
Here we go.
B
Yeah, right here.
A
This is exciting. All right. It's only going to be three seconds. Ready? Go.
C
And just like that, folks.
E
Pretty good.
A
It's amazing.
E
I did a pretty good job.
C
Look at that. The little kid held his hand up and then he was testifying.
A
And then whenever David gets a record, he has that little dance that he does. Takes his two fists and kind of does a semi bend over. Yay, we did it.
F
Yeah, like the Hulk.
C
I'd imagine a let's go was yelled that.
E
Yeah.
A
Very good. Well, congratulations, David. Very good.
F
And your family, was that a court
B
supervised visit with the kids, you think? Court supervised
E
so much so they had cameras and everything.
F
It's Guinness supervised.
A
Now we're going to switch.
F
Do you think that the Guinness people just live in his neighborhood now? Because we're over there all the time.
C
Yeah. They had to set up an office, right?
E
Either that or the Hilton rewards are just awesome.
C
Oh, my gosh. They're getting so many waffles every morning. Morning.
F
Any more sports over there?
C
I don't have sports. I've got a couple letters. Some people, including Tammy and Brody, told me to get some Hattie B's hot chicken. That is the plan now. Thank y'.
A
All.
C
And then I got another letter from. This is from Mick. Mick with an M. Hey, Willie. Always fun when you're in studio. If you like Risk, I bet you would love Axis and Allies. Risk with more depth. I've never played it. I'll check it out.
E
It's great.
C
It's like World War II.
D
Ish.
E
I'd imagine, dude.
C
Yeah, I'll definitely check it out.
F
Do you have a lot of board games, Josh?
D
No.
F
Oh, okay.
E
I think I have a Trivial Pursuit and I have a Texas Chainsaw Massacre board. Game. That's impossible. Nearly as fun as I hoped it would be.
F
I'm sorry.
E
It was just one of those where. You know how they have these gigantic gaming conventions.
C
Yeah.
E
And those games aren't fun. Like the rules are 20 pay. It's like a cheese cake factory menu of rules.
B
Yeah.
E
And you're watch. Leatherface can't go into that room until. Well, I don't get it. Yeah. Give me dice or a spinner.
C
My cousin had a board game party that I went to and I just ruined it.
E
We.
C
I spent. We spent the first half hour going over rules. There was like this board game expert that was talking to us and it was no fun. And I screamed at everybody, stormed out. Don't invite me to a party. I'll ruin it, man. You kidding me? Let's play Risk or I'm out, pal.
A
I've got this story. This happened over the weekend. The Gen Con convention. Yeah.
E
Oh, they are. That's one of those gaming conventions.
A
Exactly.
F
70,000 plus on Saturday.
A
It was in Indianapolis. They had a surprise. According to this news account from the Indianapolis Star, a quote, surprise deluge with rain pouring through the ceiling. The downpour in Hall B of the Indianapolis Convention center happened shortly before a tornado warning was issued. Water began pouring into the large space used for game.
E
Well, good news though. It was sort of an impromptu shower
A
for a lot of three days. Yeah.
B
The games.
A
The first. The first one in quite some time. Hey. They really sank my battleship.
E
Yeah, but everybody's good.
A
It was just a. I guess. Yeah. I read the whole. I know. My son Sam went down there and was posing as me.
D
Yeah.
F
That was pretty funny.
A
Interviewing people.
F
Yeah.
A
I wasn't there.
F
Not Tom.
A
He did. He called himself Not Tom.
F
Okay, look, just like you.
A
Did he really?
F
A little bit. Yeah. He's wearing the Bob and Tom hat.
C
Yeah, that post divorce goatee.
F
Yeah.
C
Keep you fresh.
A
Nice safari shirt.
C
Oh, yeah.
F
Yeah, he tried.
A
Okay, Very good.
C
We got a little more sports over here. Mario Pachtino is staying with the US Soccer team, agreeing to a four year contract to coach the Americans through the 2030 World Cup.
A
Don't sound like no American to me.
E
That's right. It's American.
A
It's American. Soccer boy. Where are you from?
E
You talk about David Smith or no one.
A
I'm not sure that David's even okay.
C
He got a four year contract.
A
That sounds kind of old testimony to me.
C
Pretty good to get a four year contract when the next one is in four years.
E
That's an interesting guy there. I miss that. Venn diagram is a little off.
A
Why would a guy. Why would a guy be pissed off about. About someone with an old test? I don't know. Only there are people who are pissed
E
off about everything in my Bible. Happened in America.
F
Sir.
A
Yeah.
E
Sir, you have gone way too.
A
You never been in Nashville, Pennsylvania? Some kind of a queen.
C
There's that part.
B
Noel.
E
The guy's very intolerant.
C
Excuse the character we were dealing with here.
E
Right, right.
C
But, yeah, you got a four year contract, which is good because the World cup isn't four years.
F
Right.
C
You don't want to get a three year contract. That wouldn't.
A
Where's the next one?
C
Where is the next World Cup?
E
Anybody know?
C
That is a great question.
A
Look it up, man.
E
Not here.
C
Not here. Brazil. That'd be fun.
F
Let's see. World Cup 20, I think.
A
The Women's World Cup.
F
Morocco, Portugal and Spain.
C
Oh, that'll be cool.
F
Yeah. Especially since Spain just won. Won, Right.
C
They just went.
A
Are they gonna be honest? Maybe they should do it in the fall or the. Or the spring before it catches on fire again.
F
Okay, well, sorry.
E
I wouldn't mind. I think a flaming soccer ball might actually make it.
B
Make it into an end of the game.
C
Watch more.
A
I know that everyone loved it except for me. And I. I did learn a little bit about soccer, Willie. I learned that my interest in it is now nil.
F
Okay, fair enough. In four years, you don't have to watch.
A
I. Believe me, I won't.
E
I don't. All right, we'll see if he's watching anything.
B
I mean, you got to keep your fingers crossed. Four years.
A
As they say, pushing up daisies is the.
F
Oh, my gosh.
E
We all know Tom's going to 110.
F
Yeah, you can't put that in the universe that you can not. What you. You just said.
A
Okay, we're going to switch gears and head over to Christy Lee.
F
A technology company is offering a new tattoo system. It promises pain free permanent tattoos. It's called Cipher X. The commercial launch of microdot tattoos has been announced. It's a tattooing platform that uses dissolving microscopic structures instead of conventional tattoo machines to ink designs into your skin.
A
What does that mean?
F
The system works. Thank you for asking. By using needle filled microdot tattoo patches, which are applied with an applicator left on the skin for 15 minutes.
E
Oh, so it's like those fake tattoos.
F
Yeah, but these have little needles in
A
them, like a transdermal patch, whatever they are. Yeah.
F
And that delivers the ink of the tattoo. The microdots into your skin. They claim the new technology enables people to get permanent tattoo with minimal discomfort and aftercare.
A
Yeah, but there's. So I. My guess, if it's a patch, you'd have to pick it off the wall. It would be something pre designed.
F
Yes. You wouldn't be able to write. It would be.
A
Isn't part of the whole deal with tattoos that you put up with the pain?
E
I would. I would argue that I don't have a tattoo, but it seems to me that's part of it.
C
And the pain can keep you from making dumb decisions. Decisions you have to go, hey, do I really want to go through this just to have, you know, Tweety Bird smoking a joint on my bicep?
A
Oh, is Oscar here?
E
Oh, man, he has Marvin the Martian smoking a joint on his bicep.
A
Sorry, I don't mean to embarrass him. He's one of the funniest guys I know. Yeah, I. I don't. I'm not buying this.
E
You don't think it'll take off?
A
Well, I hope the whole thing is the artistry. A great tattoo is one that's. That has its own. It's unique, it's, it's. It's got its own thing.
E
I liked it better when tattoos were reserved strictly for badasses.
A
Yeah. Yeah, exactly. You're not gonna get it. Could I get the. The third transdermal tattoo, Patch of the tear under the eyeball, please? Can I. Can I come back in 20 minutes? I've got to go pick up something. I'm gonna get a cookie at the mall. I mean, tattoos.
C
Yeah.
A
I used to meant you'd been to Singapore 4, right? In the Navy. Yeah, you were a badass.
C
Now it just means you have favorite Alanis Morissette lyrics and you want everyone to know.
E
Yeah, everybody's got favorite Alanis Morris.
B
I have go down in a theater on my chest.
E
You would go with that obvious choice.
A
Could I get the skull spitting out the chewed bullets, please?
C
That's badass.
E
Yeah. Yeah.
F
I don't know, it'd be kind of cool for easy ones, like if you were doing initials or a little star or. You know, some of. I know women that my age especially, that do just something, you know, small, like a star or they. They go with their kids.
E
And what hurts worse for women your age getting tattoos? The tattoo itself or the ironing that has to take place before.
F
Ouch, man, that was mean. I have plenty of unwrinkled skin still.
E
I said women your age. I didn't say yeah.
F
Well, you're implying that all women my age.
A
Oh, wow. Josh just, Josh just stepped on it.
B
The iron a.
E
Just saying. You want a smooth canvas.
G
Sure.
C
Yeah. You can't.
A
Oh, wow. It's interesting. Yes. Well, Josh was leaving. Someone had put, I mean, had put stopping strips underneath his tires.
E
I mean, you want to sand them table before you paint it.
A
I, but so are they going to have these temp. These, these are permanent tattoos, though.
F
Correct.
A
But there, there's no need.
F
I don't think you're going to buy these at, you know, the five and dime store.
E
These are Claire's tattoos.
A
Yeah. This is going to be where they
F
sit there and pierce your ears and you get a tattoo at the same time. Two for one.
A
Do you have any tramp stamps? I was hoping for one that had a big arrow pointing down, said eat at Joe's.
E
I call it.
A
Sorry. Coming up.
C
I call it.
A
Coming up. We're going to talk to swimmer, a guy that has actually did the swim across Lake Michigan. He's got a new thing he's doing. It's really cool.
C
Did he go across east, west or north, south?
A
East, west.
C
Okay. You know guys, you gotta ask questions sometimes.
F
No, that's a fair question. Question.
C
I mean, tough journalism.
A
Do you go, do you go the five times as long or just the relatively long, long way? Coming up, we have therapists in the news. Kind of an interesting thing. We'll of course have today in history and marijuana versus cigarettes.
D
Yeah.
A
Who's, who's doing the most of what.
F
And we have penis in the news. We didn't talk about it yesterday. We got to get to it today.
A
Oh, this is a, this is all. I think it's the, I think I want to say the fifth time in history there's been a successful transplantation of the male member.
D
Wow.
A

Hi, there's Pat Godwin.
G
Hello.
E
Jess Hooker has joined us. Hi, Willie G. At the sports desk. Hey, there's Ace Cosby. Howdy. I'm Josh Arnold. There's Tom.
A
Thank you very much. Two things we were to trying talking about, Jess. We were talking about some new tattoo thing which I don't think it's very cool.
G
Okay.
A
It's instead of having a traditional tattoo artist with the handheld device, put a tattoo on. It's, it's a patch, right?
F
Yeah. You stick it on and it micro needles basically micro dots into your skin and then you take it off after 15 minutes and it's there forever. Yep. Permanent.
G
Huh.
F
It sounds like a great way to get a tattoo, really.
A
But I mean, they're obviously going to be, they're not going to be originals.
G
Yeah.
A
It's just going to be some, you walk in and pick one off the wall.
C
Why couldn't it be original? Why couldn't someone graphic design something?
E
Maybe eventually.
A
But yeah, I think eventually a lot
F
of people pick them off the wall anyway.
A
That's true. But eventually, eventually there'll be a computer program where you can so it's 15 minutes.
C
I think you'd be surprised that's how long. But how much computer programs are already used in Tesla tattooing?
A
But I'm saying eventually there'll be some program where you type it in and it spits out a sheet of the patch that has the patch and you.
C
Yeah, they're already doing that with a stencil and then still tattooing over it. I mean, this makes it much easier. But I think the. The artwork element is already happening.
A
Yeah. But the romance is gone.
G
It is. Yeah.
A
You want to be in a place where the, you know, the. The potential of getting hepatitis is still a solid 60%, you know.
E
Right.
A
There's a tattoo gun sitting in a bucket of what may or may not be.
G
I don't think those exist.
E
Well.
G
And getting a tattoo is like getting your hair done. It's like a form of therapy. Like you have a relationship with this person and you talk to them and I mean, you're sitting there for hours sometimes.
E
This is just another option. Traditional tattooing won't go away.
G
Yeah.
E
There will always be those who want this.
A
This just sounds like something at the mall. Not.
E
Yeah.
A
I was in Shanghai High and found myself hung over and getting a anchor tattooed on my.
G
Yeah.
A
Arm. Those days are gone. We've been seeing a lot of tattoos, a lot of tattoos on ladies legs. I've noticed in the summertime with shorts.
C
You got to stop looking at ladies legs. It's not going to bring anything good to your life.
D
Yeah.
A
We were also talking about the. I don't. Were you here the day we had the story about. I think you were. The shoe. Shoes designed to help the movements of the bowels.
G
Oh, yeah.
A
It's like the spotty body. It props up your.
G
The shoe shoes.
A
Yeah.
F
Yeah.
A
Props up your knees.
F
Seven inches.
A
I hadn't seen. I hadn't seen the photograph of the guy wearing these. Do we have that?
G
Yeah. Let loose. Is that what it has?
F
Let loose? Yeah.
A
It shows a guy reading the paper.
F
That's attractive.
A
Yeah. Got a nice high white socks.
F
Supposed to leave him next year. Do I have. And then slip your feet in.
E
You know what he's doing that I don't know that I would do.
C
What?
F
Wear a robe?
E
Yeah. He's crapping while wearing a robe.
G
Nobody does that.
E
Isn't there a danger of that robe
F
falling into the toilet or even the
E
obi being the dunking into the water?
F
Yeah. Yeah.
C
Is there a chance that's a special toilet robe that is cut away sort
E
of like a fancy cape maybe.
C
Right.
E
And if anybody has it, it's that douchebag. Look at him.
B
Olive oil slicked hair.
A
Does he have his hat on backwards?
G
Yeah.
E
He wears those s shoes all when he's with a tall man. I bet.
F
Also they do have a disclaimer on their website. Do not walk in these. Do not run in them. Do not dance in them.
A
So if you're listening what we're talking about the Squatty Potty. It forces your. It's like, it's like a platform that forces your knees up. Yeah.
F
They say.
A
Now describe these, Christy.
F
Yeah, These are like platform shoes that you saw on the disco back in the day.
G
Yeah. You could see these at a drag brunch this weekend.
F
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. And he. There's slides and you just slide your feet into them and you sit down and they're supposed to be cute and fun to sit next to your toilet rather than the ugly Squatty Potty. But I, I.
A
And then they're. And they. What was the name of the company? Is that like Let Loose. Oh, let Loose.
F
And they also, they also sell a probiotic type supplement that keeps you regular, if you will.
A
There are plenty of those out there.
F
I know.
A
You don't have to get a pair of weird shoes.
F
No, but they do sell them as a combo, though. I did see that.
A
I see. And I suggest that instead of calling them S word shoes, they should have gone with something that, like Hush Poopies. I was telling a friend of mine that story and I mentioned the Hush Poopies idea, and he goes, I don't understand.
F
You know what Hush Puppies were?
A
No. He thought Hush Puppies were just the food.
F
Yeah, that's true.
A
Yeah.
C
What else would they be?
F
That's a shoe.
C
Oh, I did not know that.
B
Oh, yeah, yeah.
G
Oh, yeah.
F
It's a shoe brand back in the day.
A
Oh, they. Don't it make them anymore?
E
Yeah, I barely remember them as a kid, so it makes very popular.
B
For a while when I was like,
F
I always thought old people wore them like.
A
Yeah. Hush Puppies were kind of like bland
C
like heads or something.
G
Like leather loafers.
A
Yeah.
F
They still make them. Yeah, yeah. Mainly swayed. They were usually. Yeah, yeah.
A
So that joke doesn't work for most people.
F
Sorry.
E
Buster Browns kind of does.
G
Yeah. I remember those.
F
Red Ball jets. Do you remember those?
A
I do remember Red Ball, which is,
E
Is that, is that a. I thought
F
it was a Buster Brown product for the poop joke.
E
Buster Brown.
F
Oh, I get it. I'm sorry.
E
Yeah.
A
Red Ball jets. If you have whatever
C
Air Force number twos.
A
That's clunky crap Clogs would be better than.
C
That's fine. Yeah.
A
Well, they use the S word. You can't.
F
Yeah, you can't even say that. So how can you market it?
C
Crab crocs is alliterative, but I don't like that either.
G
There are some crocs that are taller enough.
A
Yeah, could.
G
Yeah, that could be used for that.
C
Have you ever. This, this is very indelicate. Have you ever used the restroom while wearing heels at a formal event? And if so, has that helped you in the same way these might?
F
No. I mean I've obviously worn heels and gone to the restroom, but I've never been in a situation at the same
A
time that'd be very awkward. Hey, Dolores, while you're wearing the 12 inches heels. Well, I'm kind of constipated. Figured if I have to go, this will shove my knees to the ceiling.
G
You have your formal dress all bunched
F
up around your waist.
G
Oh, that's a look.
A
How about. How about Pumas?
C
That's good.
F
There you go.
C
The people at Pumas might have issue with it, but yeah, that's good.
A
Okay, well, let's move forward. Here we have Christy Lee at the Bob and Tom news desk. And do you want to do the transplant?
F
Yeah. Surgeons at a hospital.
A
Can I just say before we get to the this story, we had to double check this one because it's just the name. The name of this guy is. It just seems like something you would find in National Lampoon. But this is the guy. This is. These names are all real.
G
Okay.
F
Surgeons at a hospital in Vietnam announced they have completed one of the world's first successful penis transplant using brain dead donor organization. Morgan. The recipient, a 43 year old businessman who underwent complete removal of his penis four years ago.
E
You guys understand what I'm. What I'm understanding now is the difference there? Yeah, the person's not dead. No, they're just brain dead.
F
Yeah, that's.
E
So they take his wiener and I guess they've given up all hope that they're going to cure his brain dead. That's the first sign that the doctors go Europe, you're never going to be a better.
C
Well, maybe if he does come back, it's. Sir, we have good news and we have bad news. We brought you back.
E
Good news is hey, you're here.
F
I thought the same thing, Josh. It's like wait a minute, hey, Spain
A
won the World cup while you were down, while you were out.
F
Ah.
A
But no, they, I didn't put the whole story. They transplanted, they took whatever else they, they take a whole bunch of organs.
F
Okay, okay.
A
And, but, yeah, but this is the only. The fifth time in history this has been done successfully.
F
Yes. The recipient of 43 year old businessman who underwent complete removal four years ago to treat a medical condition now has a new penis thanks to the main surgeon, Dr. Duong Duck Hung. The donor was a university surgeon it's
E
really close to Long Duck Dong.
F
Yeah.
E
Sixteen Candles.
C
And it's got Hung in there. That's a.
A
Last name is H U n G Hung. His first name is Dong.
E
Yeah.
F
It's okay. Oh, it's D U O N G.
A
I would say you is silent. Don't you know you're Vietnamese?
F
Oh, for the joke. I do, yes.
A
Dr. Hong is this guy's name. If you're gonna get a penis transplant, I mean, if you want to go to Dr. Hong Kong. What a. Hi, I'm Bill Microdick. How are you?
C
I thought you're gonna go with Dr. Little, but I'm glad that you stretched your legs on that one.
F
While physicians will continue to monitor the patient's urinary and sexual function, sensory recovery, and reproductive potential, Dr. Hung said the transplant has given the patient back his quality of life, confidence and happiness.
E
Wow. I mean, so the body could reject the penis.
B
You could be doubly rejected on a date.
E
I know. Yeah, I know. I've had some bodies reject mine and that's okay.
A
But he'll have to take whatever the anti rejection medicine. Yeah, medications are for that. But hasn't this been the. This the transplanting of the male member. Hasn't this been the topic of several sort of comedic pornographic films, I'm assuming?
B
I mean, the Frankenweenie, actually.
F
Well, we're talking about John Wayne Bobbitt right here. Is that what you're talking about?
A
No, I was talking more like.
C
Kind of like Face Off?
A
More like you would have. I could see kind of a racial component to this.
E
No, no, no, no. Go ahead.
G
Everybody be very, very quiet.
B
We're gonna have a new host tomorrow.
C
Whoever's doing the cameras, do not cut to any of us. Let them die up here.
B
No one laugh.
E
Tell us about this comedic racial penis porn. Turn off my camera.
A
So I guess so. I guess so. I guess no one would understand the premise.
C
I know.
E
Honey.
A
Honey, go ahead.
E
Something's different about you. Did you get a haircut?
F
No.
A
Don't turn the lights on. Yeah, yeah. Why are they calling this movie any pork in a storm? Well, it's. Funny thing happened to me the other day.
F
Well, when we come back, we'll have an update on Lollapalooza. Yeah.
C
What's going on with all the kids in the rain?
F
Marijuana versus cigarettes.
C
And I'm taking cigarettes and six.
F
Yeah.
E
I'd say everybody's a winner.
F
And this is something that I know a lot about. Are you storing stuff in your parents
A
home as an adult or are Your kids storing stuff.
F
That's what I mean.
A
Yeah.
F
Adult kids, are you storing stuff in your mom and dad's home? Yes.
A
Are you experiencing this right now?
F
Oh, yeah.
D

You can do.
A
We all have the same.
F
They're all different order.
G
They're all a different order.

We're just doing it at different times.
F
Yeah, you're doing it at different times.
E
That was my sarcastic.
F
Yeah.
G
And we're gonna. We're gonna work up our phrases.
E
Okay?
G
So we're just. This is just practice.
C
I didn't know you were doing sarcastic. And I go. I can't put a tone to it, but you remind me of my dad for some reason. That was my first thought.
A
Okay, now I'm supposed to say, oh, yes. And. And what do I.
G
First one.
A
Oh, okay.
C
Oh, is that flirty for you? Yeah.
F

You did? Yeah. And it twitched.
F
I'm not surprised you looked at Josh either.
C
Oh, yeah.
G
Okay. He loves him to mix it up a little bit. You guys get to choose between your last two. For this last phrase, we're gonna skip to this last phrase. And the last phrase is you shaved your bush.

Okay. Your choice.

E
What's that called? A tone. Tone what?
G
Tone challenge.
E
Tone challenge.
G
There's a couple of different phrases that people are throwing around. Like you do you. Things like that. Another one is you washed your ass.
A
Yeah.
G
So you have to apply to that. Yeah.
C
Under the late great red fox.
G
Right, exactly. So, yeah, you have to say that washed your ass. Yeah. You have to guess the tone.
F
Yeah.
C
By the way, what tone was that? Was that surprise? Was that disappointment?
E
It sounded like you were bewildered almost.
C
Yeah, it was confused disappointment. Like what are these trends these people are doing?
A
Yeah. Disappoint. You're disappointed about that. Yikes.
G
I saw a fun one that was the mom from et, the actress D. Wallace Stone. She did the you shaved your bush challenge and she did it with her daughter and it was, it was very funny. If you want to look up one of the.
E
Oh, I bet they were laughing.
F
Yeah.
A
Which. Who was it?
E
D. Wallace.
F
She was in.
E
Otherwise known as D. Wallace Stone.
F
Yeah.
G
Et's mom.
D
So.
A
Okay. Okay.
G
It's very funny to hear her say that phrase.
A
I see. Well, thank you very much. Now, coming up, we're going to talk with swimmer, world class swimmer Jim Dreyer, who's got something he's going to be doing. We met him, was it a decade ago when he swam across Lake Michigan?
F
It had been that long.
A
I think it's been longer than that. We'll talk to him about what he's got coming up. It's a really cool thing, really cool tribute. He's going to be totally towing a couple of dinghies full of 250 cannonballs.
E
Man. That's crazy.
F
When you teased this yesterday, I was like, wouldn't the cannonballs drag him down?
E
Right.
F
How is he gonna tell?
A
I didn't really have the facts. I just had to said he was going to be swimming, towing cannonballs. And I'm like, I didn't even say towing. I said he's going to be swimming with 250 cannonballs.
F
That's right. You did.
E
So.
A
But we'll find out what it's all about. It's a, it's a great thing.
F
He's still strong legs.
A
Yeah. We'll look forward to talking to Jim coming up a little bit later. What's coming up in the news Coming
F
up in the news, we have marijuana versus cigarettes. We have a Lollapalooza update. We have a heavy metal concert. We didn't get to that yesterday. In a very interesting place. And we have horror soundtracks in the news. Josh.
A
Horror.
G
Okay.
F
Not horror soundtracks. That would be totally different.
C
Yeah, they'd be like tlc.
E
I don't take checks. I hear it all, all the time.
C
That's one of their classics.
D
Yeah.
A
What do they take these days? Was it like Venmo?
E
Can you Zell is what I prefer.
A
Okay. Okay.
C
Easier for taxes.
A
Right now, let's talk about taxes, money prices. I don't have to belabor the point. Everything's more expensive than it was a while back. And American Financing is a company that helps people finance their homes. Over, of course, and among other things, right now they're quite busy doing one thing, which is doing refi. Refinancing. If you've owned your home for more than a few years, it's probably worth a lot more than it was when you bought it. And you can take advantage of the increase in its value by grabbing some of that equity without actually selling the house. So if your house is, you had it for 10 years, probably worth twice as much. Well, you can refinance it and take some of that cash, maybe pay off some of that high credit card debt.
D
Debt.
A
Or perhaps, I don't know, put on a new kitchen. It all depends on your situation, where your house is. The folks that American Financing would love to talk with you, you can go to their website. You can see it's very simple. You can, it's, what is the word I'm looking for? User friendly. And people are calling up American Financing to ask about doing a refi and grabbing some of that equity. And by the way, you'll find there's no upfront fee, there's no pressure. They have salaried employees would like to help you out. So you might even be able to delay a couple of mortgage payments. Get the details. It depends on your situation, of course. Go to american financing.net and please add a slash. Bob and Tom. So they know that we sent you once again, American financing.net bobandtom Some folks, like I said, they can delay a couple mortgage payments. They can even save as much as 800 bucks a month on average. That's what they're telling me. So find out if it's going to suit you and your situation by visiting american financing.net nmls182334 nmlsconsumeraccess.org average savings based on borrowers who save $200.
E
Welcome back to the.
F
Okay.
A
I got out in a timely manner. The word you're looking for is elegant.
E
Okay, that was actually my bad. I lost my composure and I. I could have just. Hey, it's the Bob and Tom Show. We're live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios.
A
All I know is I walked in the green room, I levered. Hooker's say was, I'm worried about the pie.
F
What's wrong with the pie?
A
I don't know.
E
Nothing. We'll get to that in a second.
G
Okay.
F
Yeah.
E
Christy Lee's at the news desk. Pat Godwin's there. Jess Hooker made us a delightful tomato pie.
G
Yeah.
E
Which is kind of exactly what it sounds like, but not a little different. There's Willie G. At the sports desk. Ace Cosby's at the control board. Hey, I'm Josh. And there's Tom. I just tried the tomato pie.
G
Right.
E
It's. It's a really good tomato pie if you've had it before.
F
Right.
A
But what's a tomato pie?
F
I saw a recipe for tomato pie just yesterday on Instagram.
G
Yeah. It's everywhere. Because tomatoes are in season, obviously. And this is not a part of my Hooker the Cooker. This is a part of me cooking for my family at home. They didn't like it. So you guys got the leftovers.
C
I love that.
G
It's a different series that's coming out called Vultures.
F
Yeah. Yeah.
G
Called Please Eat this. Yeah. So tomato pie is. It's much like a fruit pie, only it's tomatoes and a cheese. Mayonnaise mixture stacked. Yeah. And. And then you bake it full of tomatoes.
E
It's pretty summery.
G
It's very summery.
E
And I. I had a whole piece. I would have preferred maybe two or three bites.
G
Exactly.
E
It got more. It got. I don't know, it's one of those things where it got less good as it.
G
Yes. It's rich.
D
I think.
G
I think it'd be cut. You had it in like a bite sized form as an appetizer.
E
Right. You're exactly right.
G
I think that's the way it should be. Those mini quiches kind of things, like a little stick. I think that's a perfect way to do it. This is. It's too much.
C
What kind of cheese are we working with here?
G
I did a dill Havarti.
C
Okay.
E
Which is great.
G
In the cheese.
A
That sounds like the name of a lifeguard.
F
Dill Havardi.
A
Hey, watch out for sharks. Dill Havardi. Lost his leg last week.
F
Poor Dillon.
G
Yeah, Thomas. Last week's Hooker the Cooker, we did chicken nuggets. Two ingredient chicken nuggets in the air fryer.
A
Oh, nice.
G
Yeah, so I took chicken thighs and ground them up with an entire bag of spicy pork rinds.
C
Oh, that sounds great.
A
That does sound good.
G
Yeah.
A
So is this posted in Hooker the Cooker?
G
Yeah, it is.
A
Okay, tell people how to find that.
G
Go to YouTube and search Bob and Tom Hooker the Cooker and you can find the last three episodes of the series. And this week we'll have a new recipe coming out Thursday night.
A
As a cook, I don't know if you heard us talking about this. Today is National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day, and I had always, you know, you always heard the story that they were invented by accident.
G
Sure.
A
The lady was putting the chocolate in. Thought it would. That's not true.
G
Not true. I didn't know that.
A
Yeah, they say that's a myth, but they.
F
Who are they? They weren't around.
C
No one really knows who they is.
F
Yeah, somebody.
A
Msnbc, that's who I bet it is.
F
They just wanted to change.
C
I don't trust no Rachel Maddow, I'll
B
tell you that right now.
A
See, I ain't eating nothing. She cooks, only she's ever eaten beaver.
C
Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness.
E
Sir, we said you could sit in one more segment if you behaved yourself.
B
And we have a new character in this show.
E
We gotta be honest, sir, you're not. Not behaving yourself.
B
It's not Tom. It's a new character. Right.
A
So, yeah, tag team with a criminal.
G
So how do you take your chocolate chip cookie? You want a small cookie? You want a big cookie?
A
I like the big ones with huge chunks of chocolate.
G
I'm with you. Not the little. Not the little, not the tiny ones. I don't like those either.
F
I like a straight toll house off the bag of Toll House chips recipe.
G
You can't go wrong with that recipe.
E
Delicious.
C
I love that. But if it's a perfect willy day, I want a little peanut butter in there. I want a little flaky salt on top of that cookie.
F
Do like flaky sea salt.
A
I never heard of that.
F
The flaky sea salt. Oh, that's good.
G
Oh, my chocolate chip cookies are very cakey. They're thick and cakey.
E
Interesting.
G
Walnuts. Dark chocolate chips.
E
I want a Mrs. Fields Mall cookie.
G
I don't know if I've ever had one.
E
Well, you're not living a life.
G
Is it warm? Is it always warm?
A
It says Historians note that the story is a myth.
F
Well, historians don't know. They weren't there.
D
I said maybe.
E
This just proves the lady's even more
F
of a genius, right?
B
Yeah.
F
Yeah.
E
She figured it out on her own that these semi sweet chocolate chips would be good.
C
Yeah. Not like that dummy that figured out Viagra by accident. This gal knew what she was doing.
A
Yeah.
F
Ever eaten baked? If you're baking chocolate, if you tried to eat it, it's horrible.
G
Yeah.
E
Yesterday, it's a fat kid's nightmare.
A
But yesterday was a chocolate chip cookie dough eating day.
E
I love that.
C
Yeah, that's a great.
A
Today, official, officially chocolate chip cookie day.
F
Which brings me to marijuana.
A
Okay.
F
New federal data shows marijuana use has now surpassed cigarette smoking in the United States.
C
We did it, boys.
F
According to the 2025 National Survey on Drug Use and Health, about 44 million Americans aged 12 and older reported using marijuana regularly over the past year.
D
Whoa.
F
That's compared to over 36 million who said they smoked cigarettes. Smoking remains the most common way people use marijuana. Marijuana followed by edibles.
A
So it's getting a little confusing.
F
And cannabis concentrates.
A
There's two different things going on here. Smoking cigarettes versus marijuana use.
F
Right. So it could be a lot of different use. It's not just smoking marijuana.
A
Yeah, but then. Yeah, but I know on vacation. I don't know about you, Willie. We were out in Colorado. I think I saw maybe three people smoking.
C
Yeah. I saw a construction worker, I saw the waiter, and then the guy that I bummed one off of. So all those guys couldn't believe it.
F
While marijuana use continues to grow, alcohol remains by far the most commonly used.
A
I thought marijuana was supposed to make everything more chill and more. Have you driven anywhere lately? All the a holes out there in cars, they're not smoking marijuana. It wouldn't be so mean.
F
Don't get me started.
A
Yeah. Really? Do you encounter the same idiot I did in a parking lot yesterday?
F
Over 129 million Americans ages 12 and older reported currently drinking alcohol. So it's by far.
E
How many? I'm sorry?
F
129 million.
A
Oh, oh, about a third.
D
A third.
E
Okay.
G
Are you saying 12 and older?
F
Yeah, 12.
E
I think that's fair. I mean, look, if we're being honest.
C
Yeah.
E
Wait, you started drinking at 12?
G
That was the first time I had a drink.
F
Sure.
C
Yeah, me too.
D
Oh, wow.
G
Oh, yeah, we would.
F
We would have you hoodlums.
A
Hang on a second. Everybody quiet down. Yeah, Pat's about to beat us all. Go ahead.
B
Well, we had whiskey on the gums when you were teething as an irish kid.
F
Well, that doesn't count in my house.
G
Of course.
B
It was a full show.
F
You can't do it. Now.
E
How old is.
A
Didn't you have jay, didn't you have a jameson instead of lavoris? Absolutely.
E
How old is a freshman?
C
13? 14.
G
Yeah. No. 14.
E
15.
B
Yeah.
E
Okay, that was only a couple of years after you guys.
G
Yeah.
A
Now what is it when you combine the two, you combine marijuana and tobacco. Getting twisted.
C
Oh, no, it's a splash.
A
Wait a minute. I'll do this again.
C
And every time I do this, people write it and they go. Whenever willie's on, all they do is talk about weed. This is for you nerds. I know this. Okay, so a joint is just ground marijuana rolled into a check cigarette paper.
A
Gotcha.
C
A blunt is a tobacco leaf. So it's a cigarillo that you break down like a cigar. You put pot in there. A spliff, you use a rolling paper. You combine marijuana and tobacco. Are we good? I used to love spliffs.
E
Gotcha.
C
I can't do it anymore.
A
That leads to smoking cigarettes though, doesn't it?
C
Yeah, I mean, I was already kind of smoking cigarettes, so it worked out pretty well. The spliff was good because I found smoking a joint and a cigarette before going to high school was kind of challenging and with the spirit. Spliff, you mean, you can knock that out before 5am make it to the radio station by 6? You're good to go with that.
E
What's it called the first time you try a one hitter with the cool kids and you put it in your mouth backwards and end up eating half of it.
C
If you never smoke again, that's a one hitter wonder. But if you keep going,
E
Pot has a sting to it when it gets. At least this did. Yeah, it was. It had a kick.
C
Do you know what they call that when you. When you. You suck in, you eat it by accident? Scooby snacks.
E
Oh, okay.
C
I got scooby snacks.
A
Yeah, they thought of everything.
C
Yeah, a lot of fun words in the pot community, you guys. Come on.
E
Overhauled gangs. Gooby snacks.
C
I have not.
E
Oh, you'll be a fan of that.
C
I'll have a fun afternoon. Man, that's good. I like leaving here with homework. I love that.
E
Listening. The blood out gang, not homework, my friend.
F
Thank you.
E
A pleasure.
C
Really.
F
Nearly another new poll out there shows nearly half of adults in the u. S. Are still using their parents home to store their belongings.
A
That's going to be weird when I go back there. Those people.
B
I left a jacket in your closet.
A
My mom hasn't lived here since 98, I think.
F
Your parents home?
A
You still have my Playboys?
E
Where's my play ping pong trophy?
C
By the way, where are your Playboys? The ones that used to hide in Sam's bedroom in the place he lives now. Where'd you put those? I was looking for those and I can't find them.
G
Looking for some vintage?
C
Yeah, yeah. There's this old Playboy with this girl. She has a pierced belly button, but it's like a zipper. It's like a belly button.
E
Oh, it is imprinted.
C
If I don't see it again, I don't know if I can ever think straight.
A
Yeah, yeah. It's interesting because they're probably in Sam's basement.
C
Okay, I'll go.
A
I'm kind of in the opposite situation.
F
Well, you buy houses for them to store their stuff in.
A
Yeah.
F
You're a little different.
E
Yeah, your. Your situation is rad.
D
Yeah,
E
I say bravo.
F
Yeah, right.
G
I am in the opposite situation. My dad keeps bringing boxes over of photos and old stuff from when we were kids.
E
My mom's doing the same.
G
Jerseys, picture, all kinds of things. And he's just like, here, take this. Yeah.
F
Because he's tired of storing your. Storing your stuff.
G
I. But I don't want it. I don't know the polite way to say, I don't know why you kept this. I don't want it. I don't care about my Little League jersey.
C
That's what I have. I call my place Good Willy because everybody just brings over if they don't want your garage.
B
Your garage is crazy.
C
I want to have a garage sale so bad and not tell anybody. Yes, anyone.
F
You could.
G
Nobody.
F
Nobody would. Would miss anything.
E
Your brother will rent you out. He lives next door, doesn't he?
C
Oh, no, he's doing it all the time. He put a couch. He put a regular couch on my outdoor patio.
E
Now you're the rat.
C
He just put a regular couch out there. There's like, mold growing on it.
A
Now I gotta get rid of it.
B
Why would he do that?
C
I got my dad's old hats. I got Kelly's old sorority paddle. I got everything.
A
Wow.
E
I'll give you $1000.
A
Wait, I'll give you 1100. Keep your hands off that paddle. I want that thing.
F
Commissioned by Cube Smart, the Talker research survey of 2,000Americans found 45% use their parents place as a personal storage unit. The average person who still keeps things with their folks has nine boxes stored on average.
E
Wow.
F
The top reason. Well, because preservation and safekeeping. And in our case, you know, kids downsize into a small apartment. Yeah.
A
They're in apartments. They got moved.
F
Yeah. Our son's moving some stuff in next week because.
A
And I imagine the average person these days probably has, I don't know, 50. What do they call them? Participation trophies.
F
Yeah.
E
Yeah.
A
Well. And what do you do with the stuff I have.
E
You gone through it, Christy?
F
Gone through their stuff?
E
Yeah.
F
Well, a lot of. No, a lot of it. And I thought when I. Because my mother never did this, I thought I'd be the perfect mom. That, too. I would save every. I had a tote for every year.
G
Yes.
F
And I. So I have 18 totes.
E
Okay.
F
And they don't have any interest in them.
E
Oh, they don't.
F
But they're in their closets. And I said, one day we'll go through them and you can take a little out of each, and then we'll get rid of everything else.
C
I did this recently. There was an old tote, and there was a series of love letters that a German girl that I went to summer camp with wrote me 15 years ago, and I never saw them. And I found. I tried to find on Facebook, I was emailing people that were worked at camp with me that year. It's weird, man.
F
You didn't find her?
C
No. If you're out there, I still love you. I need you. Al sprens the Deutsch, please.
E
Did she ever crap on your chest?
C
No, she never did.
D
Jeez.
E
That's what German girls do.
C
We can't answer questions in this room. Why are you guys being so rude?
G
I didn't know that was a German thing.
E
Crack open a book.
F
I have Sophie's drum kit. She didn't move that.
E
Oh, that's kind of a burden, isn't it?
G
Yeah.
F
Yeah.
B
Did she play it ever?
F
Yeah, she did.
B
She's.
F
But it's not set up in her room.
C
You want me to ruin an afternoon? I'll come over, I'll play that thing all day long. I'll get loose in there.
B
You want Jimmy's trumpet?
D
That's.
B
That's gonna go soon.
F
I do not need.
A
Now, how about this one? Have you ever. You've moved into a house that someone. Someone has lived there before?
F
Yep. And they left stuff.
A
They always do.
F
Always.
A
Now, often, it's in an attic or somewhere.
F
Basement.
A
What's the weirdest thing you've ever found?
F
Oh, weirdest thing or greatest thing?
A
You found something good?
F
Yes, the house. In fact, we still have this? The lady that we bought our house for when the kids were really tiny, like Ava was a baby. She had this beautiful hutch with, like a. A top. It's like two pieces, and she just left it.
E
Nice.
F
And, I mean, Ava just moved into a new apartment last week in Chicago, and they still have it. I mean, it's a gorgeous piece of furniture.
B
That's cool.
F
Yeah.
G
That's a good find.
F
Great find.
A
I moved into a house in Winter. Winter Park, Florida.
F
Yep. Nice area. Orlando.
A
It was a. Yeah. It's where Rollins College is. Anyway, it was a. What do you call it? A carriage house.
F
Right.
A
This guy had this house. He was 90 years old, and he had three little, hot, tiny houses on his property.
D
Cool.
A
It's really cool. And I moved in there and decided I wanted to paint the place. And while painting, opened up a drawer, and there were two huge dildos.
E
No way.
A
But now this story gets complicated. So there were these. The dildos were. They were. Let me finish. They were attacking. Attached. They were attached to jock straps. Oh, wow.
F
Yeah.
A
And the guy that I had. Take the. The guy that I had taken the house over from was a student at Rollins College.
F
Did you call him?
A
And he worked at the same restaurant. So I.
C
Big Steely Dan fan.
A
This story has a totally legitimate ending. Okay, Josh, you'll be probably the only one that will get this. And I said, hey, I. I found your giant dildos with the jockstrap. She goes, oh, God. Yeah, I left him there. He had been in a. He was a. An acting student. He had been a drama student. He had been in a production of Lysistrata, which is the play in which the men are the women's. The women will not sleep with the men until they stop the war is the essence of the tale.
F
So the men are sleeping with the men?
A
No. So the idea is that's the boys
B
in the band to.
A
It was. It was a Greek drama. I know, but his. The. The. The theme of this one, the way they had put it on. They had. Very boldly. All the men were walking around with erections for the whole play. That's a little. Ergo. Okay, yeah, go ahead.
E
A little on the nose. Yeah.
A
Yeah. But. Yeah, that's. So that was an odd find.
E
Yeah.
F
He didn't Just forget.
D
Get those.
E
That is odd that you believed that.
A
Yes, I was gonna say that is a hell of.
B
That's amazing.
C
Any chance this guy was like, look, Tom is so pretentious. I have to say la strada for
B
him to believe this Better liar than I am. That's amazing, Lysistrada.
A
I will move forward here.
E
Oh, that is Lysistrata. Really? Gosh, I wouldn't have done.
C
The two of you are such a bummer to hang out. Just don't like either of you.
A
Coming up, Coming up. Well, speaking of history, we'll. We'll enlighten you in other things. Also, we're gonna talk with swimmer Jim Dreyer, who's got a cool thing he's going to be doing involving a big swim in Lake Michigan as they build a special combat veterans memorial in Whitehall, Michigan, which is a really important cool thing. But first, Christy Lee.
F
Yes.
A
Now, what are you going to be doing this afternoon? Driving around town?
F
Yeah, I got a lot of errands to run, you know, but I love it because I don't mind being in my car three years, 50,000 miles. That's how much I love my Tucson hybrid. And if you want to love your car, get into your local Hyundai dealer right now because they're having the getaway sales event. You could find an amazing deal on an SUV like the Hyundai Santa Fe or Santa Fe hybrid. A bit bigger than my Tucson and a little bit more off roady, as I like to call it. But the Tucson, I highly recommend. Recommend. And then if you are not an SUV person and want to stick with just a sedan, the Elantra is beautiful and it's loaded with the latest in Hyundai technology. All electric fans, Ionic 5 or Ionic 9 are waiting for you at your local Hyundai dealer. It's the Hyundai getaway sales event going on now at your local Hyundai dealer.

You got the high price hybrid, right?
F

A
That's great.
F
Yeah.
A
I was saying. I miss Hooker. I was saying earlier, they give cars cool names like they're, you know, and then like cool cities like Tucson.
G
Sure.
A
Santa Fe. Yeah, yeah. But. But you never. You're never going to hear about the. The Oldsmobile Newark. I'm not gonna do that. That wouldn't be. No. Wouldn't be really that. That classy now, would it? Are there any nice songs about Newark?
B
Newark, I'm thinking no.
C
Newark I want to be a part of.
B
What the hell is that smell?
A
Oh, that. Yeah. There's so many nice, great songs about New York and Memphis, all these cool places.
F
But poor Newark.
A
They must have something. Maybe Springsteen can get to work on that.
F
Right?
B
You know, I'm looking back, I don't think he has Newark in any of his songs. Yeah, he's the Jersey guy.
A
Yeah. How about Bon Jovi? Does he have a new boy?
B
Oh, boy. No.
A
A Newark truck tribute. No, it'd be like, I left Newark. That's it. That's. And never came back. Okay, thank you very much. Sorry. Newark. We're going to return with some history for you to the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show. Thanks for listening to the Bob and Tom show this morning. Catch any part of the show you missed later Today on our YouTube channel. Coming up.
C
Hey there.
E
It's the Bob and Tom show live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Christy Lee's working hard at the news desk.
F
Yes, sir.
E
Pat Godwin's putting in some elbow grease at the Music Center.
D
Hello.
B
How you doing?
E
Jess Hooker Sweating it up over there.
G
Am I sweaty?
E
Not at all. I was trying to come up with more working hard euphemism type thing. That one doesn't quite. There's Willie Griswold.
D
Good morning.
E
Ace Cosby's there. I'm Josh Arnold. I wrongly. Earlier I mentioned a song, Scooby Snacks, and I incorrectly attributed it to a band, a fun band called the Bloodhound Gang. It was actually fun lovin criminals.
F
Oh.
E
So thank you to the windbags who windbag me appropriately. And there's Tom Griswold.
A
And the song Scooby Snacks is about what now?
E
It's about getting high, you know, and being a misfit or mischievous. It's fun.
A
We'll have to dig some of that up. Check it out. But right now, it's time for us to enlighten you in the world of history. This is interesting one.
E
Oh, yeah. What do we got? It's September 7th.
A
August 4th. Oh, happy birthday, Louis Vuitton.
F
Oh, boy.
A
These the. Of course, the designer born in 1821. So he designs the fancy handbags and wallets and stuff. Yeah, they're still around. Obviously they have the cool.
F
At our local mall, they have the coolest window display I have seen in years. It is amazing. Their art director, whoever their art director is, is incredible.
E
How's the quality of the product?
C
It's pretty good. 1821, not only the year was made, it's the minimum price for anything they sell.
F
Yeah, that's true. But I buy anything.
E
Are you buying the logo? Are you buying a good product? Oh, no.
A
It's famously great, really well made.
E
Gotcha.
G
Okay.
A
But I've always kind of thought, I wonder what this guy looks like? So I googled him and the actual guy that developed this line of luggage, he started. He was a luggage guy.
F
That's how he started.
A
He famously invested. Invented a trunk because in those days, the trunks all had a rounded top.
G
Yeah.
A
And he invented one that was flat, so that's stacked. So they could be stacked. So in any event, obviously, Louis Vuitton, very famous now. Expensive stuff. But I figured this guy would be, you know, some Frenchy looking guy. He looks like a fat Nick Opera. Nick Offerman, the guy from.
F
Okay, yes.
A
He looks like the kind of guy that would be really pissed if his wife came home with a expensive handbag. Just. Just say, huh. Very, very odd. Well, happy birthday. Oh. Born in 1900. Queen Elizabeth. The queen mother.
F
Okay.
G
Yep.
A
I didn't know that she was also an Elizabeth.
G
Yeah.
A
Can you do that?
G
Yeah, I think that's how they do it.
A
They don't call him Liz Jr. No. Are there. Are women ever called Junior?
F
No, not usually.
G
I think so.
E
Well, I'm somewhere in Appalachia.
F
I've never heard that.
A
Is that. Is it commonly done naming the A daughter after the mom?
G
Middle names, I think. Yeah, that's common. Yeah.
A
You don't want. Do you want Big Jess or Little Jess?
C
Get Little Jess out of here. She's got an attitude problem.
G
I love it.
A
By age or weight?
E
Okay.
G
All right.
C
They show you. I mean, just one too far. Every time, man, you get a little high.
A
Well, the queen mother, didn't she live to be 100? Yeah, six or something. Old as hell.
F
She was over a hundred.
A
Now. Is Elton John's mom still alive?
F
What?
E
He's. She's a queen's mother.
F
Yeah.
A
Okay. Oh, this is a good one. Born in 1901. The great Lewis architect Armstrong.
B
Thank you.
A
It's my birthday. That's one of those things almost everybody can do. A Louis Armstrong impression.
G
Yes.
E
Short for satchel mouth.
F
Okay. I wondered what Satchmo meant.
C
Oh, really?
A
Actually, Satchmo is one of the Cryptids. You've got. Oh, yeah, yeah. You've got your, your, your Bigfoot. Sasquatch. Yeah. Your sister Datchmo.
C
I didn't say Sasquatch. Pretentious.
F
Yeah, he does.
G
Yes.
E
I went to Sasquatch.
A
Mothman. Sasquatch the Mothman. The yeti. The Mothmans lived here. This is.
E
This is restricted. There goes the neighborhood.
A
Happy birthday, 1955. The great actor, Billy Bob Thornton.
G
Ah, love him.
F
Man, man.
C
You see?
A
Have you watched Sling Blade lately? Man at home. Holds up.
F
I have not seen that.
A
It does hold up.
E
It's a great Movie.
A
It's a great.
E
Oh, boy.
D
Great.
F
Doing a lot of.
E
Watch.
A
Yeah.
F
Commercial.
A
He's now in. What? Landman.
F
Landman, yeah.
B
Yeah.
A
And I have. I wish I could. I want to. If I could talk to him again, I would ask him this question.
G
Okay.
A
Have you seen Landman at all?
E
Yeah, I bet he has. Why would you ask him that?
A
That's. That's what I was gonna question. I would ask him the scenes where he lights up cigarettes, which is like, every scene. Yeah, don't they. In Hollywood, don't they make you put on fake cigarettes?
G
I think so. I didn't think you were allowed to smoke on.
B
He's an actual smoker, though, so.
F
Yeah. A lot of his stuff is outside, if you've noticed. A lot of his shots.
A
I'm wondering if. I wonder if he ever goes. Can we do the second take on that? But, Billy, that was great. No, no, I just want another Sig.
G
Right.
B
Okay.
A
He really looks like he's getting into it.
G
Christy, do you think he's sexy?
F
Yes.
G
Yeah, me too.
F
Absolutely. Yeah.
A
Yeah. Check out the. If you've never seen the movie Sling Blade, check it out. It's amazing. Happy birthday, 1968. You know this guy is Pat Daniel Day Kim.
B
I do not.
F
I don't either.
C
I think I know who he is.
E
Yeah, you do?
C
Yeah.
A
Lost.
C
Nailed it.
F
Ace.
B
Oh, I'm out.
A
What? He was in a movie called the Last Airbender, which I think is about a. A toxic fart that just took out an entire community.
E
I sure hope that was the last step. And otherwise, my date's leaving.
A
Did you see yesterday, Ms. Hooker, that the actor who portrayed a character known as Big.
G
Yeah.
A
And the Sopranos died.
G
Yes, he did.
A
Yeah.
G
80 years old.
A
But, yeah. What was interesting to me about that was. Yeah. Watch the straight newscasters have to say that on, you know, the evening news.
G
Oh, yeah. I bet you enjoyed that.
A
Yeah.
E
Some people found that nickname to be offensive.
G
Okay.
E
But it is better than what was in the original script. Referred to him as Giant vagina.
A
Yeah, they decided to.
G
It was a rewrite.
A
Slang it up a bit.
C
You could have said anything. And I would have.
A
I'm sorry.
E
And even worse was the really original Colossal. But we will. We don't need to explore.
C
Let's see.
A
Happy birthday. 19 1, Megan Markle. She spells Megan M, E, G, H A, N. Megan. Yeah, she's. What is she? Prince. What's his name?
C
The great actress from Horrible Bosses 1. Please continue.
A
Okay. The Duchess of Nothing.
F
Exactly.
G
Christy really, really hates her.
F
I Do what it is about my
C
dad and Madonna you just can't stand.
E
I want that prince.
F
No, I don't want that prince. I don't want anything to do with that.
A
Let's see now. It just seems like we have something important in history.
F
What?
A
Jesse Owens won his second gold medal at the Berlin Olympics in the long jump in 1936. Do you ever see that tape of Hitler watching that? It's like Yosemite's Sam, right?
E
And Franken.
A
I hate rabbits.
C
Yeah. He was not pleased, was he?
A
He was not the guy that measured it. Hitler had him hanged right there. Oh, let's see. Elvis Presley released Hound Dog in this date in 1956. Got a lot of lyric going on there.
F
Doesn't matter. Great song.
A
Still, never could figure out what that was about.
F
Nothing like a house hound dog crying all the time.
A
Couldn't figure it out. What does it mean?
B
Originally written and done by Big Mom.
E
You know what? We may never know. That is hound dog.
B
What does he mean by that?
A
1984. Never caught a rabbit.
C
What could that mean? Is that Alice in Wonderland, you think?
E
No.
F
Friend of mine. Really doesn't.
A
Doesn't apply to my life at all. 1984, Purple Rain by Prince hits number one stage, stays there for 24 weeks.
C
It's a pretty good song.
F
Pretty good album.
B
It's the.
F
It was the album, wasn't it, that stayed there.
A
Yeah. Purple Rain. Yeah, I always. I preferred. I preferred yellow snow. If you're going to give your precipitation color, I'll. I'll take yellow snow, anything. Because it means you're with a dog.
E
Well,
A
or me.
F
That's. Yeah.
A
Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy. Sorry. Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy announced the end of their relationship on Twitter in this state in 2015. I did not know that.
E
I remember this day distinctly. And the reason is.
C
Never forget where you were.
E
I was flying. Greg Warren and I were flying somewhere and we were in line to board and there were TVs around and on the news. It was like their last story. And on the news, well, Kermit the Frog and Miss Biggie have decided to call it quits. Greg turned to me, grabbed me by both arms and went, what? Like it was the worst news he's ever heard. And I howled.
A
Now we're coming back. We're going to talk to Jim Dreyer, swimmer, looking forward to talking to Jimmy. And he's got a cool thing he's going to be. They call him the Shark, although he swims mostly in Fresh water, but we'll talk to him about that. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show. Add to or continue the conversation. Check out the Bob and Tom show on Facebook. Get the link@bobandtom.com this is the Bob and Tom Show.
E
Hey, welcome to the Bob and Tom Show. Thank you for joining us today. We're live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Christy Lee's at the news desk.
F
Hello.
E
Matt Godwin's at the Music Center.
B
Hey, Josh.
E
Jess Hooker has joined us.
G
Hello.
E
And there's Willie G. At the sports desk. Hey, Ace Cosby's at Master Control. Hey, Josh. I am Josh Arnold. And there's Tom. And Tom, I believe we're joined on the phone by a special guest.
A
We're gonna hook up with swimmer. They call him the Shark. He is Jim Dreyer. Jim, can you hear me okay?
D
I can hear you just fine. How you doing, team?
E
Hi, how are you?
A
Very good. Now, Jim, I'm trying to remember, what year was it we first spoke to you when you swam Across Lake Michigan?
D
1998. It's been 28 years. We go back a long way.
F
Whoa.
A
Wow.
D
Where's the time go?
F
No joke.
A
Yikes.
F
We thought it was what, 15 years ago? Is that what we said?
A
I think we've talked to you a couple. You've done a couple of stunts. When you did the Lake Michigan swim, you went from where to where?
D
Started north of Manitowoc, Wisconsin, and finished at Big Sample Point in Ludington. So anybody that's familiar that's kind of like right across the heart of the middle of Lake Michigan.
A
How long did it take you again?
D
41 hours. It ended up being about a 65 mile swim. And. Yeah. Proudly sponsored by the Bob and Tom Show.
A
Yeah. And you did it in the summer, which was a good idea, except that's.
E
Isn't that alligator season?
D
You gotta stay away from those gators.
E
Yeah, those. Those Lake Michigan gators.
A
Jim Dreyer is our guest. We were noting the irony of being named Dreyer when you're famous for being wet.
F
Right.
D
It's one big oxymoron. Or maybe just a moron. Then.
A
You're in the right place. Now, Jim, I've been told you got a thing you're doing. I don't want to really call it a stunt because it's kind of important. They're building a memorial to the US 250th Combat Veterans Memorial. This is going to be in Whitehall Maintenance, Michigan. And in honor of that and to get people thinking about it and talking about it. You're going to be doing a swim. Can you tell me the nature of this? What's happening here?
D
Yeah, you know, I am really excited about this. This is truly a legacy project. Yeah. You mentioned the Combat Veterans memorial. It's the US 250th Combat Veterans Memorial. And so, you know, my thought is, you know, we've got 20250 years of freedom to celebrate, but how can we celebrate that freedom without at the same time honoring all those who fought and win to preserve that freedom? So what I'm doing is I'm swimming, pulling 250 cannonballs, and my crew's gonna drop me off 22 miles out in Lake Michigan, and then I pull them into Whitehall, where we're gonna use these cannonballs to build that memorial.
A
We have to make it clear. The cannonballs, you're not gonna. Going to be. They're. They're going to be. They're going to be on little dinghies.
F
Right? I'll be strapped to your leg. Right, right, right.
D
Well, 249 of them will be in two dinghies.
F
Okay.
A
Okay.
D
I'm calling it my train of pain, but one will be in a ruck pack on my back, and that for my late father, who was a World War II combat veteran. So.
A
So, I'm sorry, just say that again slower, Jim, because I didn't catch it.
D
Oh, yes, yes. 249 of the cannon balls will be in two dinghies that I'm pulling from my ankle.
A
Got it.
D
One cannonball will be on my back in a ruck pack. That's for my late father, who was a World War II combat veteran.
A
Wow.
D
I am hoping dad's kind to me and doesn't drown me.
F
What is the weight of a cannonball?
D
Each cannonball is six pounds, which was the most common cannonball used during the American Revolution. So it's. It's, you know, kind of tied in historically as well, but all total. Then that comes, you know, me doing the math really quick here, that comes to 1500 pounds.
E
Coincidentally, we, last week, we did a deep dive on cannonballs and learned that originally none of them exploded. They were just used to cause damage. And then eventually the. They came up with the exploding cannonballs. Do you know what these kind are?
D
Let's hope it's not the exploding cannonball. Right. Let's surprise Jim. Let's give him the. Let's give him the exploding cannonball.
A
Where do you get them?
D
Well, here's the Thing, you know, a little bit of history that I've learned is the sport of shot put in track and field. Started with the military hurling these cannonballs. And so, no, they don't make cannonballs anymore, but they still make six pound shot puts. And I've talked to the different forts and museums and they say, yeah, you know, we've got actual war relics in our, you know, in our fort or in our museum, but when we go on the road, we use shot puts. They don't take the actual war relics.
B
That's interesting.
D
So they make the shot puts now, which is really essentially the same thing now. I don't think they make exploding shot puts. I'm not aware of that.
A
They do a lot more people watching.
F
Yeah.
A
Track and feed.
E
I know. I try to throw it as far as I could. Incentive.
F
Right.
A
We're speaking with Jim Dreyer, swimmer, the man who many years ago swam across Lake Michigan. He's doing a special event. He's going to be swimming 22 miles while towing two dinghies. Wow. That have cannonballs on them.
F
There's like 750 pounds of cannonballs in each dinghy. Have you been practicing a lot? Yeah.
D
You know, obviously when I go out and train, I don't, you know, pull load 250 cannonballs, but what I do is I pull a 20 gallon bucket underwater and then I also have a cannonball on my back and so I've got the cannonball pushing me down. And then you literally have to fight for every inch to move this 20 gallon bucket. And I just peaked last weekend with a 26 hour swim of doing that. So, Christy, I mean, I've been training really, really hard. You know, the training, the nutrition is really right on and I'm not sharing a needle with a prostitute. I mean, I'm taking this really seriously.
F
Good for you, Jim.
E
You're hardly living that.
C
Each their own, man.
E
Yeah.
A
What's. What is the current water temperature in Lake Michigan?
C
Pretty cold.
D
We went out there on a dry run a few days ago. It was 68, so that's pretty good. Anytime you start getting close to 70, I'm. I'm real happy with that.
A
Yeah. Do you. I remember when I was a kid, I'd always see the people that would swim the English Channel. They get all greased up. Do you still do that?
D
You know, grease for me is more about chafing. I mean, I do wear a wetsuit and one of the things with the, the ruck pack that I'm wearing, if I don't have some layer of protection. I mean, when I first started out this spring doing this, I ended up a blow mess because that ruck pack is just tearing you up. So the wetsuit provides a little bit of a layer there too. But then, you know, you do experience some quite a bit of chafing. So, you know, the grease is a good thing.
A
How old are you now, Jim?
D
In human Earth years, yeah. Oh, in human earth years, I will turn 63 on August 16th.
F
Oh, my.
D
So still 60? 62. Still 62.
E
That's impressive. And what a lot of our listeners don't know is that you also weigh 550 pounds. That makes this even more impressive.
D
It kind of balances that 1500 pounds
A
off a little bit. Jim, what is the date of the event?
D
This Friday, August 7th is go time. And I expect to finish on August 8th. The City of Whitehall is having their annual maritime festival. And so this is part of the festival, the historic delivery of these cannonballs to build that memorial.
A
Well, that's really cool.
D
I'm excited to be swimming into town and people can order a cannonball to forever commemorate a loved one who was a combat veteran.
A
Wow.
D
Just go to my website, follow them links. And we're not taking money. We're not taking donations right now, unfortunately, we're not quite ready for that. But we're taking reservations. So if you want a cannonball, just hold your place in line.
A
Okay, cool.
D
Make sure that combat veteran get gets one.
A
That's. That's. And that's Jim the Shark Dryer. D R E y e r.com Jim the Shark dryer.com Jim, best of luck. We will try to get in touch with one of your folks. So when you get going, we can get an update coming up on Friday.
D
That would be terrific. You know, you guys, I just love you guys. Miss, you know, Miss Bob, like we all do, and, you know, we just got quite a history here, so I just. I really appreciate you guys.
A
Well, thanks, Jim. Doing a good thing.
E
Yeah. Bravo to you.
F
Yeah.
D
All right, thanks so much. You guys have a great morning.
F
You too.
A
Swam across lake.
D
Wow, great.
F
1500 pounds of cannonball.
A
I mean, you know, maybe he could have just carried the one.
F
Maybe he could have gotten helium balloons and put them on a dinghy and like.
A
There you go, Christy. Well, it'll be cool.
F
Or water balloons.
A
We'll let you know how that goes. It sounds like a fun event. What's coming up in the news, Christy Lee?
F
We have a Lollapalooza update. We have a heavy metal concert and horror soundtrack all coming up.
A
The Lollapalooza thing is weird. There are two sort of weird things that happened there.
F
It was a.
E
Who were the big headliners?
F
Smashing Pumpkins, Charlie xcx, I think Charlie XCX had and her show. It was pouring down rain, boy. It didn't affect the crowd. They didn't care.
E
Cool.
C
It was one of the first years where I felt like an old man. Where I looked and I go, oh, I don't know anybody on this one.
F
Five seconds of summer play because I know one of my girls went, maybe. No.
A

Hey, it's the Bob and Tom show live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Christy Lee's at the news desk.
F
Hello.
E
Pat Godwin's at the music control center. Hey, there's Jess Hooker.
G
Hello.
E
Busy researching?
G
No, just spitting out false information.
E
Oh, no, no. There's Willie G. Rather.
C
I love pulling out false information.
E
One of my favorite things to do Too great pastime. There's Ace Johnson. See? I'm Josh Arnold. There's Tom.
A
I got some real information. We were just talking to Jim Dreyer, the marathon swimmer. I'd forgotten this. He had his first swim lesson two years before. He swam across Lake Michigan.
F
Oh, really?
A
He learned to swim as an adult. He's done some amazing stuff and he's going to be doing a cool thing coming up Friday. I didn't realize it was that close. He's going to be swimming, towing249 cannonballs, and then he's going to have one on his back. And he'll be doing it to benefit the U.S. 250th Combat Veterans Memorial in Whitehall, Michigan. A cool event taking place in Lake Michigan.
F
Can you, like, jump in a pool and just swim laps?
G
Yeah.
F
Do I. Yeah, I mean, do you enjoy it? I guess I should say no. I don't either. The older I get, the more I don't like it.
C
Yeah, I'll do kind of like a
F
half a half breaststroke kind of thing.
C
Empty hotel pool. You're kind of spinning around like a torpedo. That can be fun.
F
Yeah, but just. I have a girlfriend that'll swim hours a day. Like just jump in the boat pool and back and forth.
G
Back and forth.
A
Yeah, when I. I used to do that a lot and I. But I would wear a. There are special water headphones you could wear.
F
Well, you don't like quiet, do you?
A
Oh, that's a good way to read a book.
F
You're swe. Get wet.
B
Hold the paper back up.
A
Yeah, you can do the backstroke and you. Yeah, you get an audio book and.
F
Well, never mind. Don't you just enjoy. Like, when you go for a walk, don't you just enjoy being out and.
E
Oh, sure.
A
But I do briefly talk to the dogs. Have a good time now. Oh, that's.
F
I've never met anyone who hates quiet more than your dad.
C
Well, when it gets quiet and the voices kick in.
F
Yeah, that's what happens.
C
Do bad things.
F
Festival goers at rain soaked Lollapalooza organized an impromptu lesbian mud wrestling event over the weekend. Lindsay Perrin, an Indianapolis resident who started the event, told Block Club Chicago that the idea started as a joke after she saw videos showing how muddy Grant park had become. Ms. Perrin posted the invitation on Instagram, where the video quickly drew more than 120,000 views. She acted as ringleader, starting each match with a countdown, refereeing and ensuring that no one got hurt. Mud wrestling soon took social media by storm, with clips garnering hundreds of Thousands of views online. So apparently lesbian mud wrestling is a hit.
A
And this took place at Lalapalooza?
F
Yep. It was very rainy over the weekend.
A
Lesbo Palooza.
G
They checked your lesbian card before you could wrestle. Is that how that works?
F
I don't know exactly how that worked or why they selected just lesbian.
E
I don't know how to answer. I'm still in shock over Lesbo Palooza.
C
Yeah, they're having fun, man. They're enjoying the concert.
E
By the way, that was the original name for Lilith Fair. But then clearer heads prevail, as they do. Yes.
F
If you want to feel old, here are your key headliners at Lala last weekend.
B
No, I.
G
No.
E
Lollapalooza.
B
Yeah.
F
Charlie XCX, Tate McCrae. Lord Jeannie, Olivia Dean. I love Lord too. John Summitt, the Smashing Pumpkins, who brought up Olivia Rodrigo. That was a big hit. And the xx.
E
Oh, I like them a lot.
F
That's the only. I don't. I do three people on that list.
E
There were a bunch. There were some other bands I would have loved to have seen. Wet Leg is one of my. I love them. I think I like Baloo Brigada. I like Viagra Boys.
F
I think my kids went to see Wet Leg in an after show.
E
Oh, cool.
F
Or a before show. One of those in a small theater. Oh, I would have loved that. Yeah.
G
Huh.
F
I had never heard of them either, but they enjoyed it. Also happening at Lollapalooza, a viral video appears to show a crowd passing a bag of urine. In this viral clip, a bag of yellow liquid is seen inside a cardboard box being passed overhead through a crowd. The video is captioned. Passing pee through the crowd is all in quotes. Diabolical. Social media users spoke out in the comments about the lack of etiquette and disregard for hygiene on display at the festival.
E
But it's just conjecture that it's pee.
C
It sounds conjecture being bagged wine. White wine.
F
Bagged wine.
C
Yeah. Oh, no, that's P. That's P. Yeah. That's not a box.
A
That's not box wine. Remember we had. We had the news story about.
E
They're trying to get rid of it.
A
Yeah. So someone up front executive the guy's leg, and front of them, they're sending the pee back.
E
Gotcha.
A
And ironically, didn't the band Box of Piss, didn't they close the third day of la, maybe.
E
Yeah, I know they were scheduled.
A
Woodstock was peace and love. This is just piss.
B
Piss and love.
F
Hey, Patty,
A
you mentioned to me that you. We. We. We were talking about the purple Rain album. Oh.
B
Today in history.
A
Today in history. Prince, one of the most famous records ever made.
B
Oh, yeah.
A
Sold millions of copies. Today's the anniversary of it's hitting number one. But you said you did a tribute to. What was this? Now I don't.
B
You had a hernia and you came out of that being. You were all purple in your.
A
Oh, yeah, they did surgery. Yeah, they did surgery and they. Oh, I didn't refer to it as. Yeah, it's my medical peepee down by my pee pee.
B
But you said.
F
I love how you say peep.
B
And it lasted for weeks. Do you remember?
E
Yes.
A
Yeah, the bruising. But it eventually.
E
It eventually nicknamed it Grimace.
A
The. The bruising went away.
E
Oh, nothing.
B
Dearly beloved, we all gathered today to show a little sympathy for our fearless leader who had surgery a while back. Tom had a hernia procedure. Oh, I knew it was in a lot of pain. It's great, that whole area. Bruises on the stomach all the way down to his loins. Purple groin, purple groin, purple groin, purple groin Childish. The color of a wrestler penis looks like an eggplant Always got a purple gr. Everybody now purple grind. Purple groin oh, you know we're talking about a purple groin. Purple groin, purple groin oh, yeah. My nights 110 alone balls like Bonnie the dinosaur Tommy's got a purple coin. Thank you, everybody. Good.
A
A nice tribute. Thank you very much.
C
Prince was shoving too many words into that song. Right? We can talk about it now. Right? Too many words. He's talking too fast. Put a few less syllables in there.
F
I love them.
C
Okay. I just want to give him my advice.
F
All right? I think he did okay.
C
Yeah. Could have done a little better. Yeah.
E
Who knows how many. How much better he could have done.
B
Tom, you don't like Prince at all, right?
A
No, I hated the movie. There's some of the worst acting you've ever seen.
F
Well, we're not talking about the movie. We're talking about his music.
G
Too erotic for you?
A
Not at all.
E
Is it sexy? I've never seen it.
F
You don't like.
A
It's comically redeemed Raspberry beret.
F
That's a big dance number.
E
I like the music.
C
Yeah, it would be funny because I know he's, like, so, like, a sex icon at that time, which is hilarious. It would be really funny if they just put, like, how tall he was. Like, it was just like, oh, he's five three. This whole.
B
Not even.
E
There's nothing wrong with, like, a wispy mustache.
F
Sexy little.
C
Actually, nothing wrong with that.
B
Josh.
A
I know what you're talking about.
F
A patient with a serious medical condition at Bruyere Health in Ottawa got to experience his dream of attending a heavy metal concert without having to leave his hospital room. Canadian power metal band the Scepter helped create an unforgettable experience for 27 year old Tim Berry. He was medically unable to attend a concert, so they went to. To him at Bruye Health. Scott McClinton of the Dominion Tavern helped organize the show. We found a band, found lighting, sound tech had all the equipment right there waiting to go. Everything was donated, the concert was free, and Tim had a great time.
A
That's kind of cool.
F
Isn't that cool?
A
Get the guy in the next bed over might have been kind of pissed.
F
Yeah, he's a country music fan.
A
Turn it down. I said the sad. They don't. I didn't give you the whole thing.
D
What?
A
Well, they. They had to pull a plug out to get the lighting just right.
F
Oh, geez.
E
Oh, whoops. Yeah.
F
So he didn't make it to the encore. Is that what you're.
A
No, no. The guy in the next bed of the heart Lung machine.
B
He's.
A
He's gone. The kids were going to pull it anyway.
F
A new study suggests scary music can subtly change the way people interpret, rather facial expressions.
A
This is, to me so incredibly obvious.
F
Horror soundtracks can make friendly smiles feel eerie, threatening. According to the study, the results suggest sounds can unconsciously influence how you interpret your emotions and the intentions of others.
E
This is a fad. Online, they'll take a movie like. Or they'll take a show like Friends, and they'll just put. What if Friends were a horror movie? And then they do that. They just put a scary soundtrack and then you see them smiling and laughing and it seems like they're insane.
F
Gotcha.
E
Yeah, they, like Tom said, obvious as anything.
A
Yeah, I mean, if. If you played. There's a reason. I'll put it this way, when they do those ads for Carnival Cruise, they're not playing Legendless Honor. They're not playing the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.
F
No.
A
Yeah. So scary music makes facial expressions look scary. No kidding. And conversely, if you. If you put really silly music in a horror film.
E
Right. They did that too with the. The. You're going to watch Shining and it shows, you know, Nicholson smiling and the twins. And with happy music, it seems like it's a nice family movie. Yeah.
C
Those kids on bikes like a tuba.
E
Yeah. Yeah.
F
So it's different movie and looks matter. When choosing a therapist, a new study found people were significantly More likely to choose psychotherapists with attractive faces from a mock online directory. And it wasn't about romance. Oh, no. Participants, gender and sexual orientation made no difference. Leading researchers concluded that the preference wasn't driven by sexual attraction, rather by the assumption that attractive people are simply more trustworthy or capable.
B
I mean, this is.
C
With this.
E
They've done studies on this. With hiring. They've done studies.
A
Yeah, it's pretty obvious everywhere.
C
I also disagree. I do not trust a hot guy at all. I don't trust a hot girl at all. Are you kidding me? You've got too much opportunity. Give me an uggo. They'll keep me honest.
E
So you want an uggo therapist?
C
I think so. No offense, Kevin. I'll see you later today. He's a pretty handsome guy.
A
And. And Josh, you wanted a therapist, which is a great ass.
E
That is the main thing I want. Yeah. Yeah. I don't care what their qualifications are, whether or not they're, like, licensed, so long as they got that a.
A
Sorry, doc. I'm having trouble talking about my emotions because of this huge erection.
E
Is this distracting? It's distracting. I'll turn around.
B
I.
C
This is tough. I don't think I could have, like. I can't have a female therapist. I've had one in the past and I lie.
E
See, I insist on a female therapist.
G
Really?
E
Because I don't.
A
Yeah, man.
E
Don't lie to your therapist. Oh, no, I don't.
C
If it's a guy. If it's a girl, you would lie A hundred percent.
E
That's really interesting.
C
What are your problems this week? No problems. Can I take you out? What's going on, lady? Oh, wow. I'm also. As I say this, I realize this is him just putting a washing machine in my subconscious. That is that. Is that what that is?
E
Will you get out of his head, Tom?
A
Yeah, sorry.
C
Yeah, I don't know, but I want it to be a guy. Me and my therapist, we, like, Talk Sports for 10 minutes at the end of therapy. That's nice.
G
That is good.
C
Yeah, it's cool.
G
Would you ever stop going to a therapist based on their looks? Like if you were too attracted to her.
C
Yeah, if it was. Yeah, for sure. 100%.
G
What about you, Josh?
E
I don't know. I wouldn't. I, I, I just. There's nothing sexual about that encounter with me.
C
And Josh is less psychologically broken than I am, so I think that he has a more regular
E
one.
G
Fool.
A
What about weird accents?
E
Well, how distracting are we? I mean. I mean, I Have trouble sometimes with a call center not understanding whether or not my delivery is going to work.
A
A nice thick German accent.
E
I think that would just be. It would almost be cartoonish.
A
Yeah.
E
Like, all right, Freud.
A
Yeah. Would you like a French accent?
F
That's sexy.
E
No, I don't want any accent. Foreigners don't know this. This American brain of mine. Does that even mean.
A
Well, what's coming up, Christy, in the news?
F
Well, we have a map of Africa that was mislabeled badly by the U.S. state Department.
E
Oh, boy.
F
And.
C
Oh, God, you got to be careful with that, man.
E
Yeah, there are a couple.
B
There's a couple of those. You really got to be careful.
E
Randy McNally's been cancelled
F
and you're Alma.
A
This is special things we can't ask about on Jeopardy. The answer is, I'm sorry, we can't go. Automatic win.
F
And your alma mater, Columbia is in the news today.
A
I was not aware of that. Right now I want to remind people of a couple things. One of them is Willie G tomorrow night in Nashville, Tennessee with Frank Caliendo.
C
Yeah.
A
At Zany's. That'd be fun for a great live show. Also, we've got a whole bunch of new stuff on our Bob and Tom website. Done a nice remake remodel there, including Hooker the Cooker. You can get hooked up to our YouTube channel and check out what Jess Hooker has cooking and find out all the details there. Right now, I want to tell you a little bit about money, money, money, money. American Financing is an organization that would like to help you out getting some cash. They're a specialty, of course, mortgages. And one of the things that they've been doing right now is refinancing and taking advantage of the fact that if you've owned your house for more than a few years, it's probably worth more than month a it was when you bought it. So you can refinance and grab some of that equity and use it to maybe pay off those heavy credit card bills, et cetera, et cetera. If you're interested. We'll find out the details. American Financing saying right now they have an average $800 a month saving by their customers by doing a refi. So find out the details. No upfront fees, by the way, at American Financing. No pressure. Cost you nothing to find out. Just take a few minutes to see if you can start fresh with a refi and take some of the equity out of your house. If you've owned your house for more than 10 years, it's probably more than doubled in value so you can take advantage of that without actually selling your house. Get the details@American financing.net. do me a favor and put slash, Bob and Tom, and we'll get a little bit of a little bit of love from them. And you can find out what they've got going on at americanfinancing.net NMLS 182334, nmlsconsumeraccess.org average savings based on borrowers who save over $200. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

E
Hey, it's the Bob and Tom Show. We sure appreciate you joining us today. We're live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Christy Lee's at the news desk. Hi, Pat Godwin's there.
B
Hey, Josh.
E
Next to Jess Hooker. Hi, Willie. Gigi did one of my favorite things. I'll explain in a second. There's Ace Cosby. I'm Josh. And Tom. I just. Willie, I love catching people taking a selfie. Now, Willie wasn't trying to hide it. No, he was just taking. But I always like it because it's oh, what? Oh, that person likes their look or what are they up to? I always think it's a nice little moment that a person is celebrating themselves in a way.
C
I was not taking a selfie. I was wearing my hat backwards and I wanted. Because I was trying to piss my dad off a little bit. Fun. End of the show.
E
Oh, look at this douchebag.
C
What do you want? Everyone that walks behind, you know, you like the Colts, that kind of thing. And then I put my hat on backwards and I did not like how thin it made my hair look as it popped through the snapback.
E
Oh, yeah.
C
I sent it right back for.
E
So you were just checking it on
C
the phone, just seeing what was going
E
on, using your phone as a mirror?
C
Yes, sir.
E
Yeah.
F
That was the saddest day when they took the little apple off the back. That was a mirror. I was so sad.
E
Oh, it was reflective. Wasn't it?
F
Reflective on the back? And I used to use it as a mirror. And they took it off. They don't have that anymore.
A
Now everybody.
F
It's not reflective anyway.
A
They put it in selfie mode.
F
Yeah. But I hate that. It's not the same.
A
You ever, ever do a fake selfie?
E
Oh. So that you can record the person in front of you?
A
Yeah, I just did one.
D
Oh, okay.
F
Of course.
C
Oh, why the lack of subtlety in this?
G
Must they ugly or.
F
Or fat?
A
Yeah, I'm gonna be delicate here.
F
So they were both.
A
One time I did it with Willie. We were in Chicago.
C
It makes it sound like you think I'm the ugly fat guy when you say it like that.
A
You heard it, right.
C
Everyone else.
A
No, no, no. You remember this. Willie and I went to breakfast and we were in a neighborhood.
C
Oh, I remember this. There were two gay men that. They did look exactly like each other.
A
These two gay guys were walked in. I mean, and they were. They were like twins.
G
Okay.
A
They had the same clothing on type. They had the same haircut. I mean, and I knew you guys wouldn't believe me, so I was pretending to take a selfie. So I didn't took a picture. I've got it somewhere in my phone that's.
G
So when you take a picture like that, what do you plan to do with it?
A
Prove a point when someone says you're exaggerating. Oh, yeah, look at this. Tweedledum and Tweedledee.
E
That was a good chick impression, by the way.
C
And it's Twinkledum, by the way.
A
Okay, There you go. No, when we were out in Boys Town. Yeah. But now this, the self, the fake one I took the other day. Willie and I were out in Vail, and it was a pretty nice day, probably, I don't know, 80 degrees. And there was some kind of religious conference going on.
C
I knew this was gonna be it, and I didn't want it to be it.
A
And I'm not. Hey, great, good. Everybody was cool. Except you in. So there was a guy. I mean, you know me. I never wear shorts.
G
No, never.
A
I was wearing shorts. That tells you how hot it was.
G
Okay.
A
And. But there was a guy right behind me in line with his wife to get on the gondola to go up to the top. And he was in full religious garb.
G
Okay.
A
He had on boots. He had on long pants. Pants that were crimped and tied on the ankles.
G
Okay.
A
And then he had on a heavy, heavy black coat.
F
Okay, what religion?
G
So far, it sounds like the military.
F
Yes.
A
You know, I mean, and he had on a. Had a. Had a. Like a huge beard.
G
Okay.
A
And then. And then a particular type of cat.
F
Okay.
A
Okay, gotcha.
E
Okay, so Catholic priest.
F
No.
B
Oh.
F
Oh.
A
But I thought, you know, this is. I. I mean, I respect everyone. They can do whatever they want. But if. If you're religious, you tried to take
E
a picture of how smelly he was. You thought. You thought if you took a picture, there Would be stink lines coming off of this man.
A
Because I knew you guys wouldn't believe me. It'll take me a second to find the picture.
C
Oh, but they have cut away and we're not going to post this one, guys.
E
So what was the issue here?
C
I don't really know. I wasn't with him during this moment.
A
See this guy?
C
I did not.
E
What were you trying to capture?
F
Why were you wanting to take the picture?
A
Because I couldn't believe he was getting. They had this ro. This coaster up there.
E
Yeah.
A
A gravity driven coaster. And to see the guy that, you know, looks like he's this serious religious guy going, having fun on a. Going.
G
Okay.
E
That's a fun dichotomy.
C
I wonder how many, many guys, when you guys went to the state fair together, I wonder how many people took fake selfies of themselves to be like, look at that fake cowboy wearing Doc Martens standing next to his daughter. Grandkids.
A
Yeah, that is fine.
F
Martin's.
E
It's kind of like when you see nuns on a roller coaster.
B
Oh, yeah, yeah.
E
Look at that.
A
That's exactly what it was.
E
Right.
G
Were you there?
F
I.
G
Were you by yourself when you took this photo?
A
Yeah, because I was watching and the. The. My girls were take. They were on the ride.
G
Oh, okay, gotcha.
F
I want to know what kind of Doc Martins you want.
C
They're the Rosing Knolls that you guys have seen. But they look like Doc Martin.
F
I was gonna say those aren't Doc Martin.
C
The leather zip up boots.
G
Yes.
B
Oh, yeah.
F
Those are cool though. You were wearing those with shorts.
A
No, no, this. This guy was Willy.
E
May have been.
B
That's quite a looking boy.
E
Doing some comedy.
F
I'm sorry, I just.
B
It's.
C
Occasionally I try that on this show. So far it's not working.
F
But maybe one day I really in my heart of hearts wanted him to own Doc Martens. I thought that would be really cool.
C
I think you might. What do you say over there, old man? Do you have a pair of Doc Martens?
A
I don't.
C
Okay.
E
No, I did. I loved them. Did you guys have loved them?
F
Heck yeah.
C
Jankos.
E
I don't know what Jankos are.
C
Oh, really?
G
The big wide pants?
C
Yeah. No, common at a corn concert or a lot of zippers on them?
F
No, no, those topic.
E
Yeah, yeah, I. No, no, those weren't for me. Yeah, yeah.
A
Anyway, the point. I was doing a fake selfie.
E
Okay.
A
This guy doesn't realize I'm taking a picture and I'm not gonna. I would never post it or anything. But it was just such an odd look in your, your, your, Your comparison is the best. It was like watching a nun on a roller coaster wearing the full hat.
E
Yeah. Always fun. Yeah.
G
Yeah.
F
They're allowed to have fun.
E
Exactly.
A
I know.
E
Just to kind of forget.
F
Yeah.
A
But instead of allowing, maybe, I don't know, if I was in a religious order like that, I might do a summer outfit, maybe something with short sleeves.
C
Well, that's where you're wrong, because they would never let you in a religious order. You have to have humility and empathy.
A
And particularly, their religion is sort of based in a very hot part of the world.
C
Again, we haven't gotten specific about it.
B
Again, he can't fly in a plane.
C
Funny hats and hot. That's the big three. We got all three in there.
A
And then there were some other dudes.
G
You know what?
E
Maybe that's why they're pissed off all the time.
A
There were some other. Other guys that had to. They had to affix their headgear to their pistol. They had to affix their particular. I'm serious. I swear to God. This guy put a hat over his hat so his hat wouldn't fall off. And then I ended up talking to some of these guys.
F
Of course you did.
A
Because, well, then this guy.
E
Oh, you mind if I talk to some of you guys?
A
He was trying to take a selfie. Do you want me to take a picture of you?
C
You guys know my old favorite joke? A priest and a rabbi walk into a bar and my dad bothers both of them.
A
I love that joke.
C
Where'd you get that funny hat? Do you buy that at a special store?
A
I'm just saying.
E
I.
F
That was kind of.
A
Kind of odd. Maybe relax a little bit if you're gonna get in the roller coaster. You know, lose the heavy, thick coat. That's all I'm saying. A little bit of BO as you go down the Condolent.
