[Tom Griswold]

It's the Bob and Tom Show.

[Josh Arnold]

Josh here. You know, this holiday season, I wanted to write a song about someone I admire, respect and love. I couldn't think of anyone, so instead I wrote a song about Tom Griswold. Or as I like to call him, Mr. Grizz. You're a mean one, Mr. Grizz. You really are a jerk. You're insulting and demeaning. You're a prickish piece of work, Mr. Grizz. You're a frozen hearted ass bag and you drive us berserk. You're a nutcase, Mr. Grizz. You truly are insane. You're a certifiable psycho with a highly abnormal brain, Mr. Grizz. Your mental illness is something even the finest psychologist cannot explain. You're so boring, Mr. Grizz. Those stories you repeat. Your references are dated and your knowledge obsolete, Mr. Griz. Listening to you makes us all want to lie down in the middle of a busy street. You're repulsive, Mr. Grizz. You have no allure. You're as sexy as a scrotum covered in syphilitic sores, Mr. Grizz. You've got all the sex appeal of a steaming pile of manure. Aw, you're a child, Mr. Grizz. Your jokes are juvenile. Anuses and feces are the things that make you smile, Mr. Cruz. You talk more about poop than a compulsive coprophi. Oh, God, Tom, I had no idea you were here.

[Tom Griswold]

Josh, you understand I'm the boss here.

[Josh Arnold]

And yes, yes, I write all the checks. Oh. Oh, good point. Well, how about this? You're a genius, Mr. Grizz.

[Tom Griswold]

That's better.

[Josh Arnold]

You truly are the best.

[Tom Griswold]

Very good.

[Josh Arnold]

Everyone who knows you should consider themselves Blessed, Mr. Griz. Waltzer. I like that you're an extremely intelligent, wonderfully funny supreme human being.

[Tom Griswold]

And that.

[Josh Arnold]

That giant penis of yours, well, we're quite impressed.

[Tom Griswold]

Why, thank.

[Josh Arnold]

Ah, yes. Tis the season to enjoy the wonders of Christmas. My gosh, if it isn't the Bob and Tom Show. There's Christy Lee at the Silac Insurance Company news desk.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat Godwin over there.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Jeff Oskay across the way at the Prize Pick sports desk.

[Jeff Oskay]

Hey, man.

[Josh Arnold]

We'll get a review from him regarding his new facial hair. And look, there's Ace Cosby. Hello. I'm Josh Arnold with the I Hate Steven Singer sidekick chair. And there he is.

[Tom Griswold]

Tom.

[Greg Warren]

Hello.

[Jeff Oskay]

Hello.

[Josh Arnold]

I've been wondering what the family and friends of Jeff Oscar have been thinking. My mom actually said that you look great.

[Jeff Oskay]

Oh, nice.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah, my mom liked it as well.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. You hadn't had a haircut in how long?

[Jeff Oskay]

Probably a year.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. But we. We have a before and after shot blowing up the net social media platform. You look great. Well, congratulations.

[Christy Lee]

You're gonna keep it?

[Jeff Oskay]

No.

[Pat Godwin]

What did your lady think?

[Jeff Oskay]

She. She did not care for it.

[Josh Arnold]

Really?

[Greg Warren]

No.

[Christy Lee]

She likes Mountain Man.

[Jeff Oskay]

She liked the short hair. Did not care for seeing my face.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm not sure how to take that exactly.

[Christy Lee]

Me either.

[Jeff Oskay]

But it's still translated into fun for Jeff all weekend, so.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, then.

[Jeff Oskay]

Hey.

[Tom Griswold]

And it's growing. The beard is already.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah, it is a little shorter than I am comfortable with. And just for the record, next time we do this, we're going to do it in spring instead of before. The coldest day of the year.

[Christy Lee]

Felt a little bit on your face.

[Jeff Oskay]

It was. It was a rough week.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I'm used to it. So. Christy and I don't have any facial hair.

[Christy Lee]

No, I.

[Jeff Oskay]

Well, it's amazing how much it does insulate your face.

[Josh Arnold]

That's great.

[Jeff Oskay]

You don't realize until it's gone.

[Christy Lee]

That's why people wear those full face mask things, right? Keep their face warm.

[Jeff Oskay]

The shiesties.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Jeff Oskay]

That's what they call the full face mask.

[Christy Lee]

You know, the full face mask that robbers wear or, you know, they keep.

[Jeff Oskay]

Your, I believe, a Pooh Shiesty. It's after a rapper who wears that.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay. Yeah. I.

[Jeff Oskay]

Sorry.

[Christy Lee]

Learned you a new word.

[Josh Arnold]

My bad. Skinny mask. Essentially.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Jeff Oskay]

I forgot where I was.

[Tom Griswold]

If you walk into a place in Vail and ask for A poo shiesty. They'll put you in cuffs. I would hope, but. Well, welcome to the program. Thanks gig everybody, but. Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah. Real, real.

[Tom Griswold]

Well.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Great. Yours?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, got a lot done. Got the. Got the tree a lot done.

[Jeff Oskay]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I've got a perfect tree. Really lucked out.

[Jeff Oskay]

Good.

[Christy Lee]

How tall?

[Tom Griswold]

Eight plus.

[Jeff Oskay]

Nice.

[Christy Lee]

How'd you get a home?

[Tom Griswold]

I put a. On the top roof of my car.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

What? I took a moving mat so I didn't scratch up the. Yeah, all right. But, yeah, I got it all done.

[Jeff Oskay]

Did you cut it yourself?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I've only done that once.

[Jeff Oskay]

I've never done it.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, if you're going to do that, what they don't tell you is you need goggles. Because when you cut it yourself, you have to lie down on the ground and they give you a saw. And you're familiar with woodworking. It's not. It's a tree full of SAP. So the blade binds and all the stuff on the tree starts falling in your face. I've done that once. It was fun. I'll. I learn my lesson. The folks that I buy them from, their real trees, they do a nice, nice job and they. They cut them.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, the O. Gore family, they did a really nice job.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I've been getting my trees there forever.

[Christy Lee]

Me too.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I got really. Got a really good one. It's all up and decorated and.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, really?

[Tom Griswold]

I got wreaths up except for one.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, well, you have a problem.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, we have a. A plaster hood over the stove. Kind of a. Yeah. Over the cooktop of the kitchen. And we didn't want to. You can't put regular tape on that. So either there was this. There was this. What do they call it, a hack on the Internet using abusing painter's tape, followed by this other device, blah, blah, blah. So we. I got the ladder up. We got the whole thing up. And I stood back and I. Quite literally, I said, I can't believe that painters tape will hold that. Just as I said that it fell off. So I've been researching what to put on it so that when we remove it, it won't take the paint off. I have not had any success yet.

[Christy Lee]

You have to put a wreath in your kitchen.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, why not? I mean, you know, celebrate.

[Christy Lee]

Hang it on the refrigerator.

[Tom Griswold]

No. Oh, that's. In any event. Yeah, we got. Got a lot done, so. Hope everyone had a quality Thanksgiving.

[Josh Arnold]

Only.

[Tom Griswold]

Only one minor issue.

[Christy Lee]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

It involved the deviled eggs.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really?

[Tom Griswold]

You know the tradition. We had the dinner at My house and Kelly's mom, remember, I brought in the deviled eggs last week. Yeah. And so we went for the. The unveil. She brings deviled eggs every Thanksgiving. That's. That's their contribution. It's very nice. And unfortunately, her husband. We literally took. Took them out of the fridge, opened them up, and he had unfortunately picked the wrong thing out of the fridge and brought the prior day's meatloaf. Half of it was mostly eaten, so that was.

[Christy Lee]

Did she make him go home and get them?

[Tom Griswold]

No, we wouldn't allow that. We just. We got. We retrieved them the next day, but. Oh, everything.

[Pat Godwin]

Brought meatloaf and thought they were deviled eggs.

[Tom Griswold]

They were in a similar container. They were in a container with shady pines.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Assisted living.

[Josh Arnold]

I made deviled eggs for the first time, and they were great. Yeah, Boy. I made turkey dressing, mashed potatoes.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Josh Arnold]

Deviled eggs. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Good for you.

[Pat Godwin]

What was the big hit?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, everything was the big hit. Let's see. Yeah, Everybody enjoyed everything.

[Jeff Oskay]

Stuffing from scratch.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Nice.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I made stuffing from scratch, too. And I did use your. I did the wipe and the wheat and a little bit of sourdough because I needed to fill a pan, but very good hint.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, good, good. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, good. Well, I think everybody had a good time.

[Christy Lee]

No turkey was still frozen. That's kind of a. Huh? Yeah, it was. It should have been in there five. It was only in there, like, three and a half days or whatever.

[Josh Arnold]

Hmm.

[Christy Lee]

So there is a hack for that if you get caught. And it did work. I had to cook it for about an hour on 325 to kind of thaw it up. And then I was digging big ice balls out of the cavity, but it was fine. I mean, I got that all done.

[Tom Griswold]

And nobody got poured.

[Christy Lee]

Fixed it the way I normally do, and it was perfect.

[Josh Arnold]

My turkey took, like, an hour and a half less than predicted.

[Jeff Oskay]

Really? So, yeah, I mean, a pounder.

[Josh Arnold]

So when I made the mashed potatoes, there was a. It was a scramble.

[Tom Griswold]

There was a whole lot.

[Josh Arnold]

21 pounds. Oh, man.

[Tom Griswold]

When you take it out of the oven, did you let it sit for half an hour?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. In fact, it sat for about 45 minutes while I finished the mashed potatoes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I did mine. This is one of those words that it sounds like a dirty word, but it isn't. Spatchcocked.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. I had a girlfriend who did that. She said it was the hardest thing she'd ever done.

[Tom Griswold]

To spatchcock it, you kind of remove the middle of it, and it's spread it out. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. And she couldn't. She's not strong enough. So she had a hard time. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And then when you. But you don't get that presentation that you see in the Norman Rockwell with the upright bird. But it cooks.

[Christy Lee]

How did it taste?

[Tom Griswold]

Just go ahead. Cooks it more evenly. And I liked using the word spatchcocked in front of Mitch Mix company.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, sure. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

We have a hard time carving. We have nobody that wants to step up and carve a turkey. I gotta learn how to do that for the key.

[Tom Griswold]

Rubber gloves.

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, rubber gloves. That way like when you want to get the wings and stuff off the legs, you can grab them and.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I do that with my bare hands.

[Tom Griswold]

Good for you.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, most.

[Josh Arnold]

It's hot. It's real hot. But then the wing doesn't taste like rubber or powder.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't use the medical grade ones full of the white powder. Okay. Just a few tips. We got a lot of mail to get to. A lot of interesting things going on in the world. If I were an alien, I'd wonder if bears are taking over most places in the world. We seem to be getting more bear attacks. Did you watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?

[Josh Arnold]

I did, yeah, we had that on.

[Pat Godwin]

That's fine.

[Christy Lee]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

There was an issue. We'll be getting to that.

[Christy Lee]

I knew you'd pick that out.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, it's classic.

[Christy Lee]

I knew.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I wonder if I missed it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you missed it.

[Greg Warren]

I missed it.

[Jeff Oskay]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

If you, if you knew about it, you'd be.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, you know exactly what we're talking about.

[Tom Griswold]

You would have opened the show with it.

[Josh Arnold]

You saw a man kiss another man's hand, I'll tell you that.

[Jeff Oskay]

What.

[Josh Arnold]

What was that during one of the musical numbers? Ah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

All right. That gets great ratings, by the way.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, it's a tradition this year.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

This is an unusual request, and we may need some music in a second here. With the holiday season here, everyone has a different idea of what a good holiday song is. Could Josh please do his annunciation of Digital Underground's the Humpty Dance?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, all right. Stop what you're doing because I'm about to ruin.

[Jeff Oskay]

That's really good.

[Josh Arnold]

Pretty good.

[Tom Griswold]

I just love that song.

[Josh Arnold]

I love that song, too.

[Tom Griswold]

Isn't that gentleman no longer with us?

[Josh Arnold]

He did pass away. Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And he's the guy that. There was a guy that looked just like him in a recent presidential administration. Did you know that?

[Josh Arnold]

Did we discuss that? Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And there's. We found. I forget the guy's name. There's a guy that looked just like him. On a similar note, this comes to us from Clint in Boise. He says, my wife and I went to the movies over the Thanksgiving break. They previewed the new Anaconda movie.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, I saw that, too.

[Tom Griswold]

When the preview ended, I yelled out in my best ice cube voice, can you do that voice for me, please?

[Josh Arnold]

It snakes. Our dead is big.

[Tom Griswold]

Someone from the side of the theater yelled out, only in Josh Arnold's pants, which I.

[Josh Arnold]

There's no way.

[Pat Godwin]

That's pretty specific.

[Tom Griswold]

Obviously a fellow, a listener from Boise. Thank you.

[Christy Lee]

Is that new Anaconda movie a comedy?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Okay. It looked like it was supposed to be A comedy. But then when the snake shows up, I go, well, maybe it's a. Yeah, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Jack Black, Paul Rudd and those guys, they decide that they're going to remake, shot for shot, their favorite movie of all time, Anaconda.

[Pat Godwin]

That's a funny.

[Josh Arnold]

They go to the Amazon, and of course, they're actually faced with a real anaconda.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's great.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, should be a good time now.

[Tom Griswold]

Anybody else have any letters? Am I the only one over?

[Christy Lee]

The only one.

[Josh Arnold]

I.

[Jeff Oskay]

This is a letter, but I sent it to you. I don't know if you guys saw it. The new season of Stranger Things.

[Greg Warren]

Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, my God. I was inundated with.

[Christy Lee]

I'm sure it's great.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you give the background of what's going on?

[Jeff Oskay]

I mean, I just know that there's Christie. I'll let you.

[Christy Lee]

My kids. I didn't see the episode, but my kids did. And they ran up the stairs and they go, mom, mom. Q95. And Bob and Tom have been, you know, represented in the Stranger Things. There was a bumper sticker. They have a shot in a radio station, and one of. And they're supposed to be in Indiana. And one of the bumper stickers is one of our old bumper stickers, so it was really cool.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's. It's. Yeah, there's the shot right there. You can't.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, you can't barely see it.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a better shot of it. Yeah, that's one of the old bumper stickers. In fact, that exact bumper sticker was in another. There's a similar version in back of Jeff right now. That's a different version of it, but very similar, though.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

At the end. Of a famous John Mellencamp video in.

[Christy Lee]

Small town, isn't it?

[Tom Griswold]

In the MTV days, at the end, there's this truck driving away, and one of our bumper stickers is on that. What's amazing to me is in that shot, it's not really very prominent. It's way over in the corner. But so many people watch that show and so many people spotted that.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it stands out, I think. I mean, amongst the other ones. I don't know why. Maybe it's just because we're used to seeing it, but. Yeah, but it was cool.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I think we've posted a version of that.

[Josh Arnold]

Done a good job of. Do have period specific location specific stuff in that show.

[Jeff Oskay]

There was a poster on the wall in the first season from the camp where Willie and my son both attended.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Camp Crossley.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that's Cool.

[Jeff Oskay]

I will say this once. My kids saw that on Stranger Things, the bumper sticker, my coolness level went up about 10,000.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Jeff Oskay]

So thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. The coolness level, though, let's face it.

[Jeff Oskay]

I mean, I'm still a negative.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. The other day I. I said to my nine year old, now, you know, your dad is the coolest of all the dads. And she looked up, she went, no, you're not.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

There's no. Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

There's no who beats you in her circle.

[Tom Griswold]

There's. There's no like, back and forth interplay.

[Christy Lee]

Who does beat you in.

[Tom Griswold]

The only time they were. They were impressed was when Hugh Jackman came in here.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Because they love. Not Wolverine, they love the circus, whatever that.

[Josh Arnold]

Greatest show.

[Tom Griswold]

Greatest showman. We. I saw that with them twice in the theater. That's a really fun movie.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I've seen it too.

[Tom Griswold]

It's good. And they. But. Yeah, but so they. That. That added a little bit, you know, having these major rock stars. Meaningless to them.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

They come in, you know, Peter Frampton could be the guy delivering a FedEx package and they wouldn't care. That's Peter Frampton. He's the greatest. Doesn't matter.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So, by the way, speaking of Greg Warren and that Giggy's got coming up in Columbus, he's going to be our guest this morning. We will look forward to that while I'm at it. Coming up this weekend, Al Jackson and Willie G at the Dayton Funny Boat. So now, Pat Goddard, Are you on the road at all this month?

[Pat Godwin]

I am, but it's a private thing. We don't have to talk about it.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a very private nudist.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, very private.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Private nude in the cold. It's called 2025.

[Jeff Oskay]

Seems a little clunky.

[Josh Arnold]

I couldn't think of anything clever.

[Tom Griswold]

We got a couple pretty good letters here. The. This one is a. It shows a guy holding a turkey. And they want to hear this. Give me just a second here. Oh, here we go. This is. I want to play this a few minutes ago.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm crazy.

[Tom Griswold]

Allow me to amaze thee they say.

[Greg Warren]

I'm ugly but I just don't me. I'm still getting in the girls dance.

[Josh Arnold]

And I even got my own dance.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, the humpty dance. God, that is so great.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it's a fun song.

[Tom Griswold]

And Josh, you do a nice job with that.

[Josh Arnold]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

It shows a guy with his fist up a turkey.

[Christy Lee]

Glad you said turkey.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, well, yeah, yeah, of course, they. It's a It's a request for the shortest thing we've ever played, Mr. F. It's a photograph from the Cowboys game on Thursday. One of the many, many of the. Many of the games.

[Christy Lee]

Of course, a lot of football this weekend.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. And a little bit of controversy going on in the world of football. We'll cover some of that coming up. Right. In fact, we can get to get to some of that right now. What have you got over there, Jeffrey?

[Jeff Oskay]

Oh, well, we had a story from last week that we didn't cover, that you mentioned bears earlier. A Vermont skier camped out to get the first chairlift of the season, but he got a shock when a group of bears showed up.

[Tom Griswold]

A group?

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah. The video shared by Sugar Bush Resorts.

[Josh Arnold]

That's. That's fantastic. Sugar Bush. Yeah.

[Jeff Oskay]

Shows three black bears poking around the base of the chairlift. Around nine in the evening, the bears wake a skier sleeping by one of the gates.

[Josh Arnold]

So is this a thing at ski resorts?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Be the first chair, the first person to ride up. So the guy camps out. It's freezing cold.

[Jeff Oskay]

Says the startled skier, runs towards the lodge, leaving their skis behind. The resort quipped in the videos caption, there were some seriously wild competition for first chair of the 25, 26 season.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't want to know the guy who's. Who's camping out for first chair.

[Pat Godwin]

What time of day is that?

[Greg Warren]

In the morning.

[Pat Godwin]

What time you guys start?

[Tom Griswold]

6:00Am no, no, no, no. Earlier. It depends on the resort. Typically 8:30.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, 8:30.

[Tom Griswold]

So you enough. Enough daylight so that it's safe and.

[Pat Godwin]

Gotcha.

[Tom Griswold]

Although there are places that do night skiing, which is really cool and really cold.

[Christy Lee]

Have you done that?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, sure. I don't know if I. There may be some places out west, I think. I think I can think of one. I'm sure there are some.

[Josh Arnold]

There's a place in Louis that was only open on the weekend and they would do that.

[Christy Lee]

Telluride does that.

[Tom Griswold]

I know it's. Well, it doesn't matter. I mean, it can be. I don't know why. It just seems much, much colder, but.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, there's no sun. That would be it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that. That'll happen. Although it wouldn't be as cold as I was yesterday walking to an NFL game. The. Remember thinking, the good news is, while I'm walking down this avenue, the wind is blowing in my face now, but on the way back, it'll be at my back. However, apparently at halftime, the wind shifted directions, so I was freezing both ways. We have other bear news. Chris. Did you have one?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, we have a lot of bear news. We have like three bear stories. I just pulled out of here. A Japanese man lucky to be alive after he was mauled by a bear while using a public bathroom. The 69 year old security guard was using the restroom near Numata railway station when he was attacked. He sustained minor injuries to his leg after fighting the animal off. And this is the latest in a spate of record breaking bear encounters across Japan. In fact, they're asking the army to help control the bears. That's not a joke. As more than 100 people have been injured and a record 12 people have been killed by bears in Japan this year.

[Josh Arnold]

Weird.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Troops were sent to the mountainous Akita prefecture to help step traps and dispose of carcasses of dead bears. What's going on over there? The population decline has also contributed to the problem with bears venturing into rural areas that were once full of people or are. Oh yeah, isn't that interesting?

[Josh Arnold]

Interesting because usually where'd those people go?

[Christy Lee]

Japan's populations declined so much apparently.

[Josh Arnold]

Geez.

[Tom Griswold]

And the bears are moving in. Yeah, but the guy was on the toilet.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

But it's bad.

[Greg Warren]

Not.

[Tom Griswold]

First of all, using a public toilet. I don't care where you are, is always a little bit rough.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah, sure.

[Josh Arnold]

You're always slightly vulnerable and comfortable.

[Tom Griswold]

You're sitting at least. I suppose the good news is you're.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, you're right there.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Don't have to worry about your pants.

[Tom Griswold]

If your first responses.

[Christy Lee]

Do you know what? They're also advising the Japanese government asking citizens to carry plastic bottles. According to a newspaper there. The newspaper. Apparently the plastic crunching of plastic bottles is a bear deterrent. Well, they say, by the way, if.

[Tom Griswold]

The bottle's full, you throw the water at the bear first.

[Christy Lee]

I don't think they mean a full bottle of water. I think they mean that scrunching sound.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Any noise for black bears. That's the rule.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

And they say bicycle bells.

[Tom Griswold]

I'd say get the bear spray. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And by the way, I understand because of these apparent attacks in, in toilet facilities, Febreze is coming out with a new slightly scented bear spray.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh good. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, it's Citrus celebration and it keeps the bears away. Our friend Bob, you don't remember what happened to him with the bear spray.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Didn't he shoot in his face?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. He was moving something in his garage and there was a thing. He forgot there was a thing of bear spray and it sprayed him right in the face.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That is Rough.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Jeff Oskay]

Well, Greg, who was. Who's on later today? Greg Warren. He had that great piece about going to. I think he was in Alaska or Montana and got the bear spray and he reminded us that that stuff's not like off. You want to shoot that at the bear?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

You don't cover yourself at first.

[Tom Griswold]

You think anybody's been. Been that stupid? I.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, yes, absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

So once again, a plastic bottle, but it's got to be empty.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So you just scrunch it up.

[Christy Lee]

That crunchy sound.

[Tom Griswold]

Is this because what the bears just dislike microplastics. They're concerned about. They've been examining bear feces and found a microplastic.

[Jeff Oskay]

Until the bears figure out that that's attached to a human, then it's going to be like a dinner bell. They're just going to be like, oh.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, it sounds like my dinner sizzling of a fajita.

[Tom Griswold]

And well, is that louder than your screams?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah. Does screaming not work? I would.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yelling.

[Josh Arnold]

You yell at it. If you have nothing, yell at it.

[Tom Griswold]

But get out of here.

[Christy Lee]

I'll tell you, one of the things that really disturbs me is. And I know AI is a problem for a lot of things, but these animal videos that are showing up on.

[Pat Godwin]

Instagram, they look so real.

[Christy Lee]

That looks so real. And it makes all these animals look so friendly. And it's like, no, no, no, no, no, no. Those are wild bears.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, I like this. This is a good trend. This is called survival of the fittest.

[Christy Lee]

No, an orang is not going to come out of the wild and hand you its baby. That's not gonna happen at all.

[Josh Arnold]

Go up to that orang with a baby.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah, exactly.

[Josh Arnold]

We need less traffic.

[Christy Lee]

Or a gorilla. There's another gorilla video like that.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Is in a public bathroom sitting down and a bear attacks him. Isn't there enough room in the woods anymore for the bears?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, there was a lot of bear.

[Tom Griswold]

Do they now need. Are they getting so in tune with our culture they need to have a good, good sit down.

[Josh Arnold]

The answer to the age old question apparently is no, not necessarily.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, this is. There's a couple more bear stories and for some reason they're all over Japan. We'll get to those and many other things. And I have a theory about deviled eggs I want to make sure I get to today. Yeah. Once again, I hope you had a great Thanksgiving and if anybody learned any good lessons about Thanksgiving, let me know. Oh, I did do the cheesecloth thing.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, you did? How'd that work?

[Tom Griswold]

Great.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Just beautiful. Again.

[Christy Lee]

What's the point of the cheesecloth?

[Tom Griswold]

When you base the bird, it holds the butter in it or whatever you're.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

And then. And then you take it off for the last half hour or so and it's. I'll show you my.

[Christy Lee]

I thought you didn't do a bird. I thought you did it spatchcock or whatever.

[Tom Griswold]

Still a turkey.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Spatchcocked is just the technique.

[Christy Lee]

Flattened, right? Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You just kind of. Yeah. And again, I just liked using the word spatchcocked in front of mixed company.

[Christy Lee]

I gotta see a picture of that.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. It sounds filthy, doesn't it?

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Sounds like. Oh, he got spatchcocked. I never. He'll never be able to do that again, unfortunately. Right. Now, let's talk about the perfect gift.

Pat Godwin's across the way.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

As is Jeff Oskay sitting at the prize pick sports desk. Yes, sir. Ace Cosby's there. Hello, I'm Josh Arnold at the I hate Steven Singer sidekick chair. There's Tommy. Hello.

[Jeff Oskay]

Hi.

[Tom Griswold]

Looking at my, look at my email, every one seems to be titled Cyber Monday.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, a lot of that.

[Tom Griswold]

Any place you've ever bought anything, they, they want to remind you today's.

[Josh Arnold]

Today is the day I give them a couple emails and then when I start getting three, four, five, you're unsubscribed. That's the rule. Okay, you blew it.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Josh Arnold]

Now, I could name some companies.

[Tom Griswold]

But.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm sure you're also being inundated by them.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, we'll move forward here. We have some sporting news. We also have a handful of letters we still have to get to. We were talking about these bear attacks all over the world, especially in Japan, for some reason. And this guy. We had a letter about a guy being attacked in a toilet facility outdoors. It's already a little bit awkward, and all of a sudden there's a bear in there. He lived, by the way, so he's. He's okay. But this person goes. Have you ever heard people call it a bathroom? A necessary room?

[Josh Arnold]

I've never heard that.

[Tom Griswold]

Ever heard that? Oh, I've got to go to the necessary room.

[Christy Lee]

No, you have that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, clearly it's necessary.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, you always wonder, like in those castles, where's the bathroom? Oh, they hand you a jar. Well, this is.

[Christy Lee]

Well, sometimes they have, like, a niche where there's, like, a hole in the rocks. I noticed that when I was over in uk.

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, they do. I'm not making that up.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a nice castle you've got. It's a shame you don't have any plumbing.

[Christy Lee]

And then it goes outside. To the outside. Absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. If you've never heard of this, then this will be meaningless for you. They call it a necessary room. Perhaps the bear needed the bear necessities. Okay, okay.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, we got it contextual. Yeah, certainly.

[Tom Griswold]

I can't believe you never heard the necessary room.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no. It's got to be a Blue Blood thing, right?

[Christy Lee]

It's got to be a mainline thing or something.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, it's. It's not a Cleveland thing.

[Josh Arnold]

Take the silver spoon out of your mouth and learn. Necessary room facilities.

[Christy Lee]

I gotta use.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it's better than the one they use in the Chevy Chase movie. The. Well, the Esser. Never mind.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, right. Cousin Eddie.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, that's. Boy, that's a great. That's a great scene. Certainly. Well, let's just move forward from here. By the way, I did have a theory with regard. We were talking a lot about deviled eggs. You said you made your first set, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah. Smash success.

[Christy Lee]

Did you use one of those pastries, Things that you could.

[Jeff Oskay]

A piping bag.

[Christy Lee]

Piping bag?

[Josh Arnold]

No, I don't own a piping bag.

[Christy Lee]

You don't? Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

No, I just slopped them in there with a spoon and, yeah, they were great.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't need to be piped. They don't need. I know. I know that look you're talking about, and that is nice.

[Jeff Oskay]

Just pipe it.

[Josh Arnold]

The Arnold family doesn't need the piping.

[Jeff Oskay]

You can pipe it.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm not buying a piping bag.

[Jeff Oskay]

You're just not a piping bag. Get a Ziploc bag. You fill it up, you cut off the corner of the Ziploc bag, AKA piping bag.

[Josh Arnold]

But then you can't reuse that Ziploc bag.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my God.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but, Josh, you can. You can put the contents of the bag, lean your head back, put it above your head, and squeeze.

[Josh Arnold]

I was gonna.

[Tom Griswold]

It's like a giant plastic boob.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I was gonna ask my brother if he just wanted. He always just. He goes, I just want the goo. I don't need the egg. So I was just gonna give him.

[Jeff Oskay]

A bowl of that.

[Tom Griswold]

That's interesting. You could use it like a dip for crackers. That'd be pretty good. Delicious. My thing about deviled eggs, I think there's certain things that everyone lies about.

[Josh Arnold]

All right?

[Tom Griswold]

I think the number of shrimp that one eats and the number of deviled eggs. Oh, I had two shrimp. You had six.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you saw some of the.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I just. I just. I. I was. This is something I firmly believe. I. I will die in this hill. People, they. They don't tell you the truth about that.

[Christy Lee]

Well, do you have to? I mean, are you counting the shrimp that your guests are eating?

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, no.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just saying, if someone asked me how many I had, I said, oh, I had two, and I had. And I probably had ten.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay. Oh, so you lie.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

And I'm projecting onto everyone else. I think this is a fact. If anyone out there wants to back me up on this. Oh, there was a flight of deviled eggs. How many did you have? Oh, I just had a couple.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, people will do it with drinks, for sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Josh Arnold]

Cookies, maybe. Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And now for the deviled legs, you've got the opportunity to lie, because you can consider a deviled egg, because they technically usually come in halves, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Always.

[Tom Griswold]

So I had two, which means it's.

[Pat Godwin]

Hard to get that filling in.

[Josh Arnold]

Split a syringe or something.

[Tom Griswold]

I did use my syringe over the weekend.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, for injecting.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Put melted butter in the bird.

[Josh Arnold]

That's the marinating of Thanksgiving. For those who don't know how to cook, inject butter.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I didn't have to do that. I just put it on the outside of the bird.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you got to get it in there.

[Josh Arnold]

You don't have to do that.

[Tom Griswold]

And. Oh, it's great.

[Josh Arnold]

It's really fun, my brother.

[Tom Griswold]

You put it in, it you can see the bird puff up.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah. Oh, my God.

[Tom Griswold]

If you put it in the same spot and you forget, it squirts out the other side.

[Jeff Oskay]

You can also just take like a bike pump and put it under the skin and pump it up to get all the skin released so that you can slide the butter.

[Josh Arnold]

People are, that's, that's great.

[Christy Lee]

You don't have to do anything to do all that.

[Tom Griswold]

You might want to sterilize that bike pump. When you think of the. Where that thing has been. Oh, these are all great tips.

[Jeff Oskay]

My brother did a fried turkey and I, I would. This was the second year he's done it and I would say three or four more years, he's gonna have it down.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, nice. Yeah.

[Jeff Oskay]

Gonna be edible. I think he's gonna do it too far.

[Pat Godwin]

Was it too dry? Dry?

[Jeff Oskay]

No, it was delicious. Jason.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah. I have turkey for you.

[Jeff Oskay]

Oh, thank God.

[Tom Griswold]

Dear Bob and Tom show. Oh, I see. We were talking about the guy that was in the aforementioned necessary room in Japan. Essentially he's at some shed dropping a deuce and he was attacked by a bear. Dear Bob and Tom, the Japanese word for bear is kama. K u m a. Huh? And then this person writes, so if this toilets are rocking, don't come a knockin.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, very good.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you very much. For those that are.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you got applause. Applauded.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know any Japanese. For all I know this guy's making this up.

[Jeff Oskay]

Or he just had you say something really horrible on air.

[Christy Lee]

Maybe it's kuma.

[Tom Griswold]

Then it would be K u m a if this toilet's rocking, don't kuma knocking. Either way.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, Both work, both are fun.

[Tom Griswold]

Yakuma sounds more Japanese, doesn't it? Yeah, yeah. Okay. If not if for erotic cinema, certainly.

[Jeff Oskay]

I have a Japanese sports story over here.

[Christy Lee]

You do?

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah. A Ukrainian refugee who now lives in Japan became the first one from his country to win elite level sumo championship. The 21 year old Al Nishiki defeated Orisha Rue, one of the top ranked wrestlers, in the deciding match in the tournament. He left the Ukraine more than three and a half years ago.

[Josh Arnold]

Why?

[Jeff Oskay]

After? It doesn't say.

[Christy Lee]

Well, let's see.

[Jeff Oskay]

Russia launched a full scale invasion of his country. Oh, read in front of it.

[Tom Griswold]

Probably too fat to be drafted.

[Jeff Oskay]

Probably 21 year old.

[Josh Arnold]

Ah, too fat to be drafted. It was always my goal.

[Tom Griswold]

I assume that's a thing to be.

[Christy Lee]

Too fat to be drafted.

[Tom Griswold]

Back in the. Back in the day.

[Josh Arnold]

And I know blood pressure. Absolutely, absolutely.

[Jeff Oskay]

An NFL player who's too fat this year.

[Josh Arnold]

It wasn't preseason.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that was in the Dolphins. That guy.

[Josh Arnold]

I think it was Tampa Bay.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

A total beast, that guy.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Was it 400 some pounds?

[Pat Godwin]

So they denied him? They wouldn't accept him?

[Josh Arnold]

No, I thought he was doing stuff that was. I thought he was considered good, but maybe he was too big. I don't remember.

[Tom Griswold]

Remember. But you know, this guy. This guy is not that big. Yeah, this guy weighs. According to this, he weighs 275 pounds.

[Christy Lee]

That's not that big for a sumo.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, and he can bench press 460. Okay. So he's all right.

[Pat Godwin]

He looks very.

[Jeff Oskay]

That's a one heck of a trophy.

[Tom Griswold]

That trophy is.

[Josh Arnold]

That can't be insane.

[Tom Griswold]

It's four feet high and he's holding it. It looks like it weighs.

[Christy Lee]

That's crazy. That has to be the trophy.

[Josh Arnold]

Looks like it weighs 300 pounds.

[Christy Lee]

It looks like it's as big as he is.

[Jeff Oskay]

It could probably hold one of their dumps.

[Josh Arnold]

You're a man after jobs.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, well, okay.

[Christy Lee]

You know your audience, don't you?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, you know the whole sumo thing. The Apprentice. The Apprentices, they have to. These guys get so fat, the apprentices have to help them clean their posteriors. They're on gluteal cleft duty.

[Jeff Oskay]

I guess I'd be like, I'm going into basketball.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Less food. But yeah, I don't. You don't have to go wipe Kareem's ass. Sorry.

[Josh Arnold]

You know.

[Jeff Oskay]

You know what?

[Josh Arnold]

I think that is happening. No disrespect to Mr. Jabbar.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat Godwin's there.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Jeff Oska at the the Prize Pick sports desk.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yes, sir.

[Josh Arnold]

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you very much, Josh. Glad you had a good Thanksgiving, everybody.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, you too, man. Thank you for our pies. They were delicious.

[Pat Godwin]

They're a big hit, by the way. Big hit.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, that's all I had for dinner a couple days ago.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I had. I had some pie for breakfast yesterday.

[Christy Lee]

I was thinking, well, nothing wrong with that.

[Tom Griswold]

I think I'll just have a large piece of pie for dinner. Yeah, that was very good.

[Josh Arnold]

Those are coffee. Oh, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Now we're going to move forward with some sporting news. Sitting in for Chick McGee. It's Jeffrey Osuke, the man, the haircut. And we've posted the. The. What do you call it? A makeover.

[Jeff Oskay]

The Glow up what the kids say.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Sorry, Josh.

[Jeff Oskay]

We have a.

[Josh Arnold]

Before.

[Jeff Oskay]

After thousands and thousands of comments and likes. People like the new look.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, so the consensus is thumbs up, win, win.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, the previous look was kind of a mountain man.

[Jeff Oskay]

My favorite comment had the before and the after, and someone says, this is the defendant and his lawyer.

[Pat Godwin]

That's a funny shot right there.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, there you go. Yeah, that. That's really a good comment.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Certainly, certainly. You look kind of like Dennis Miller now.

[Greg Warren]

Yep.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah, I got that a little bit.

[Tom Griswold]

And the before shot.

[Christy Lee]

Boy, that's quite a beard you have.

[Pat Godwin]

Adam Hussein when they brought him out of the hole.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Jeff Oskay]

No, you nailed it.

[Tom Griswold]

Charles Manson, maybe. Yeah, a little bit. Well, in any event, let's get back to the sports news. What's going on?

[Jeff Oskay]

A new study shows that playing pickleball is linked to better mental health. Researchers found that players who engaged in the sport three or more times per week had an average well being score of 77.5 compared to those who played two or fewer times per week only had a score of 73.5. Researchers said that engaging in more pickleball provides greater mental well being, but even small doses appear to matter.

[Josh Arnold]

And let's be honest, it's. Any movement or exercise.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

And being around other people. Socializing. Yeah, yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

And it's fun.

[Jeff Oskay]

They added that people should strive to play more frequently to maximize the physical and mental well being benefits of pickleball.

[Josh Arnold]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

But it's my understanding, judging by recent legal cases, that living near a pickleball court may be bad for your mental health people.

[Jeff Oskay]

I actually have one basically in my backyard because that's how well I'm doing. And I love the sound of it. Like it. It's relaxing. I can hear it when I'm taking an afternoon nap here in the balls. It doesn't bother me at all. I find it soothing.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, nice. Because we've had a number of places where they've.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah, they're trying to.

[Tom Griswold]

They've banned it in a couple spots because it's.

[Christy Lee]

Are you serious? I didn't know this.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah. Because of the noise.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

What?

[Christy Lee]

People played tennis? Why?

[Tom Griswold]

I. I'll find the store. You were gone when we had the story. I forget. Where was it that they.

[Josh Arnold]

Where was it caramel or.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah. Oh, that's right. Oh, and Carmel. Carmel. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, well, yeah. So it's good for you.

[Christy Lee]

People lost their balls over the cliff.

[Greg Warren]

Maybe.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, I played yesterday and got beat soundly.

[Christy Lee]

Did you?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

By a girl?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, by a lady.

[Tom Griswold]

But you didn't. Did you lose your balls over a cliff?

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Pat Godwin]

It's my pride.

[Tom Griswold]

Any movement, though? Your point is, Josh? Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

And Christie's right. I mean, the community aspect has to be nice, too.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my sister plays, like, every day.

[Pat Godwin]

Like, people are happy doing it. Yeah, it's fun.

[Christy Lee]

My girlfriend owns a pickleball place and they pour a nice bottle of wine or a glass of wine there, too.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

That's called Pickled Bowl.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it's like a pickleball country club. Yeah, it's nice.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat, you have a. A new song that I couldn't get out of my head. You feel like playing?

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, well, you know, I played pickleball yesterday, but some people. Pickleball naked, pickleball naked, sweaty in the summer, nippy in the fall. Playing pickleball naked, pickleball. Except for Shoes that wearing nothing at.

[Tom Griswold]

All.

[Pat Godwin]

Flapping parts in private places Meemaws who ha's in their faces Incontinence in eventuality at the seniors nudist colony Playing pickleball, naked pickleball Grabs my micro Dickel is mighty small Playing pickleball, naked pickleball Try not to fall on your pickling balls Boobs are flopping Knees are bruised Hips replaced and backs are fused Sagging sacks are waving in the breeze Take one to the nuts and you're down on your knees Playing pickleball, naked pickleball Trip and fall at an ambulance call Playing pickleball, naked pickleball Past their prime in the au natural Pickleball's all the rage for folks of a certain age but nudity is best left to the.

[Josh Arnold]

Young.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, but look at them having fun wrinkling in the sun I had no idea Saul was so well, well.

[Josh Arnold]

Hung.

[Pat Godwin]

Pickleball, naked pickleball Better than a swim or walk in the mall Playing pickleball, naked pickleball Esther Clam, Felma and.

[Josh Arnold]

Big Diesel Saul, I got a big one.

[Tom Griswold]

Here you go, Christy. ABC News reports California Town bans pickleball in city park.

[Christy Lee]

I can't believe that.

[Tom Griswold]

Carmel by the Sea Mayor Dale Byrne told ABC News the town had tried to find a solution for two years, including limiting hours of play, but enforcement proved impossible. So there is a permanent ban on playing there. So.

[Christy Lee]

It doesn't even make sense.

[Josh Arnold]

It's one loud, complaining rich lady. Yeah, she has money to make sure.

[Jeff Oskay]

It disturbs my kitties.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it's something.

[Christy Lee]

A city park can't be that. Well, never mind.

[Tom Griswold]

They're making too much of a racket. Thank you.

[Christy Lee]

But it's a city park. That's what you're supposed to do in a park.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I was looking for that article. I landed on this one. Eye Injuries Rising Among Pickleball Players and rotator.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

If you're playing naked, they urge you to wear goggles.

[Pat Godwin]

I saw lady fall yesterday and hurt.

[Tom Griswold]

Her knee pretty bad. No joke.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, I giggled.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Jeff Oskay]

Well, you are the one who tripped her.

[Pat Godwin]

So she went down hard.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. No, of course.

It's the Bob and Tom show live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Thank you so much for being here. There's Christy Lee at the Silence Insurance Company news desk.

[Christy Lee]

Hi, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat Godwin's there.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, Jeff.

[Jeff Oskay]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

At the prize pick sports desk.

[Jeff Oskay]

Rabbit, Rabbit. Rabbit.

[Christy Lee]

All right, there's.

[Tom Griswold]

You got the letter too, huh?

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah, all nine of them.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm Josh Arnold of the I hate Steven Singer sidekick chair. There's Tom once again.

[Tom Griswold]

Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit. You're supposed to say that the first day of the month for good luck, I guess.

[Christy Lee]

Rabbit, Rabbit.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Okay. So we got, we got that in. And I have received a number of scolding messages informing us that we were not up to speed.

[Josh Arnold]

Chick's not here.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sorry.

[Christy Lee]

Did he make that up?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I believe it's from Gilda Radner, the great comedian from the early days of snl. I think. I think that's the source. She used to do it. And it's. I'll do my homework on this.

[Jeff Oskay]

I thought you said build a Radner. I was like, oh, that's a weird.

[Josh Arnold]

Build a bear story I made. Rosanna. Rosanna.

[Tom Griswold]

Dana. Jeff Oskay, the man without the. With a trimmed up beard after our special glow up session. You call it.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, that's what the kids call it.

[Tom Griswold]

And we have the before and after.

[Jeff Oskay]

I feel naked.

[Tom Griswold]

And also, a lot of folks spotted an old bumper sticker from the early days of this show that appears in the show Stranger Things. There's a scene in which if you look very carefully, you can see we, we've posted that in our social media.

[Jeff Oskay]

We have.

[Tom Griswold]

So. Boy, the folks at Stranger Things are doing their homework to, you know, be that accurate.

[Christy Lee]

Well done show.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's, that's really cool. And you said that a, A poster from your.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah. From Camp Crosley appeared in the first season, which my son and daughter.

[Josh Arnold]

And your.

[Jeff Oskay]

Your kids have attended.

[Pat Godwin]

My son, too.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. That's cool.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah, I forgot Jimmy went to that's cool.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, now, what else is happening in the sports page over there?

[Jeff Oskay]

Oh, you're going to love this stupid world record. A tiny horse in Germany has been officially recognized as the world's shortest living horse. Male.

[Tom Griswold]

By the way, I'd like to. The way that's worded.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And that's the text from the Guinness World. It wasn't the. The horse that was alive for the shortest period of time.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

It's the.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, God.

[Tom Griswold]

It's the smallest horse currently alive. I guess in the past they've had some shorter ones, but you understand what I'm saying. It's not like the time span of. Okay, sorry.

[Jeff Oskay]

According to the Guinness World Records, the horse called Puma. It's P U M U C K E L.

[Tom Griswold]

Or pumicle. Pumical.

[Jeff Oskay]

I'm going to call him Pumpernickel because I like that better.

[Josh Arnold]

I do, too.

[Jeff Oskay]

He measures just 21.1 inches tall, overtaking the previous record holder at 22.36 inch tall from Poland. He was not bred to be the size he is, but that his small stature is simply a quirk of nature.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, we're going with quirk now.

[Tom Griswold]

He's in a wheelbarrow in this picture. Look how teeny he is.

[Jeff Oskay]

He's trained as a therapy horse and visits nursing homes, schools and facilities for people.

[Josh Arnold]

People with disabilities. He's in constant pain.

[Jeff Oskay]

His handlers say that he is a very lovable character. He's incredibly good with children and he loves being scratched and cuddled.

[Tom Griswold]

Cute little guy.

[Josh Arnold]

He is cute.

[Tom Griswold]

When he dies, that's. They'll make him a glue stick.

[Josh Arnold]

That's what happens to the smaller horses. They just become the stick. He's very sweet.

[Tom Griswold]

They're going to need a little tiny jockey to ride that little guy.

[Josh Arnold]

They make those, too.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, if he breaks a leg, they should take him out with a BB gun.

[Josh Arnold]

It's really. It's really something. They have a child's tent they put.

[Jeff Oskay]

Him in and.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat. Now you can say you're hung like a horse.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, I could.

[Christy Lee]

He was a male horse.

[Josh Arnold]

He's cute.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. There's. There's the photograph of him actually standing. You can see sweet little guys. Legs all work. Do they? But they.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it's not like a horse with no legs. I would.

[Tom Griswold]

So is this like a horse? It says that these. He wasn't bred to be this way. This has to be some kind of a breed.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, they have miniature.

[Josh Arnold]

Right. But the story did say this was an accident.

[Tom Griswold]

It's not like, you know, his mother is Seabiscuit or whatever.

[Christy Lee]

No, no, no, no.

[Pat Godwin]

It's not a Shetland pony.

[Christy Lee]

He's from a miniature horse breed. It's just. He's very small.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

For even that breed.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Cute little Guy. Now, speaking of horses, if we could segue over to Christy Lee. Did you see the horror story involving the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?

[Christy Lee]

Viral footage captured at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade shows dancers performing while stepping in piles of horse manure. That's right. NYPD horses pooped on the road before the dancers performed. But they still danced it out.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, they did.

[Christy Lee]

You can see them performing their routine amid the clearly visible piles of horse feces on the ground. The folks commentating, if that's the word.

[Josh Arnold]

It's commenting, yes.

[Christy Lee]

Were sympathetic to the dancer's blight and chastised parade organizers for not doing more to keep the area clean for them. Many comments also highlighted the high cost of dance shoes, suggesting that a third party should be responsible for cleaning or replacing any footwear that was ruined during the performance.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just glad it wasn't the Rockettes.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh. Just flinging into the crowd.

[Tom Griswold]

And I was talking to Mark from our staff, who's. Mark's wife is a very good dancer and instructor. She's. She literally has flown all over the world to judge dance competitions. She was in this once in this parade. And he was telling me that these ladies and gents, I guess, are out in the cold for. For hours before they get to the part where they get to dance.

[Christy Lee]

I don't know how they do it.

[Tom Griswold]

And they're typically wearing really skimpy. So they're freezing.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And then they get up to the main stage, and it's full of. Why they don't have an area where the horses can't go. Would be.

[Christy Lee]

Well, usually in those parades, because I've had to be in a couple of parades, they have a person right behind.

[Tom Griswold]

The horse, like Rocky and Ballwinkle, like.

[Christy Lee]

Scooping it up as they go. So I'm shocked that they didn't have that.

[Tom Griswold]

But do we have some of the. Okay, there's. Here's some of the.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, the poor thing.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I mean, they're just.

[Jeff Oskay]

Oh, they're clogged. They're barefoot.

[Josh Arnold]

It looks as though they're barefoot. And they are. They are barefoot. They're just mashing it up. Oh.

[Pat Godwin]

Slippers on.

[Tom Griswold]

Right? Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

They're in nude colored ballet.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. It just looks barefoot.

[Tom Griswold]

These are the. The solid brown dancers. Yeah, they used to be the solid gold.

[Josh Arnold]

That is awful.

[Jeff Oskay]

Michael Shatley's Lord of the Dance.

[Pat Godwin]

I thought they were women. Those are the tiny girls.

[Christy Lee]

They were. They were young.

[Tom Griswold]

That's so. I think it's great that they have these bands and other Things, but they've. That's just. They don't need to have the horses go in. There needs to be a cordoned off area when they do that.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. I love the band.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, sometimes the horses have a basket that can kind of hang behind, but it's the NYPD horses, so you want it to be able to take off and run if need be. I don't think.

[Christy Lee]

Can you run with a bag basket.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you know the name of that dance? The name of that dance, by the way, it's similar to the jitter Bug, but it starts with a. Starts with a different sound. Oh, God, that's just awful.

[Josh Arnold]

Awful. Could have been worse. They could have been break dancers spinning on their head.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Break dancing is bad enough on its own without having to deal with having to deal with that. Okay, well, we're gonna get some of the Bob and Tom Christmas classics on for you. Throughout the month of December, we always. We always enjoy playing.

[Christy Lee]

Did you have a big ceremony at your house to flip the switch to turn the lights on Thanksgiving night just like.

[Tom Griswold]

No, we didn't. Because we didn't. We got the tree the day after Thanksgiving.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, that's pretty.

[Tom Griswold]

And check local listings. It was because we knew that the cold weather was coming, so we were able to get there early. We got a great tree. And then. But the thing is, you. You have. You get all the lights in a string and you put them all together to make sure they're all working and then you put them on. So they're. I guess we could have turned it off and then come back down and relit it, but we didn't do a big ceremony.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

There was a ceremony down here in town in which just before they lit the tree, they went to commercial by mistake.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, somebody got a stern talking to you.

[Tom Griswold]

It was throw the switch and then it cuts to commercial. Sometimes maybe you don't want to have a part timer on the. On the board during.

[Josh Arnold]

Who knows what happened.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Who knows? That was a live.

[Josh Arnold]

But it was unfortunate.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Neither.

[Tom Griswold]

They'll remember that one.

[Josh Arnold]

Sat through. Sat through a lot to wait for.

[Tom Griswold]

It's like the time the fireworks went off in Harbor Springs in the late afternoon.

[Josh Arnold]

They're still.

[Tom Griswold]

You get to see the smoke. It's just not as exciting during the. During the day, you see. Okay, let's go back to the sports page. What else is happening?

[Josh Arnold]

Anything else?

[Jeff Oskay]

That's it. Unless you want me to hit you with some hockey scores.

[Christy Lee]

You didn't even do football scores, did you?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, they're all okay.

[Jeff Oskay]

They're all out there.

[Tom Griswold]

I. Tom says there was a incident at the game. I went to see that. If you go on the Internet, it's.

[Pat Godwin]

You saw it in person.

[Tom Griswold]

One. Yeah. One of the worst officiating.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm telling you, they got. They have to get rid of pass interference. Totally.

[Tom Griswold]

Apparently, if you wave at the guy, it's interference. Especially if it's going to mean difference between winning and losing the game. I see. Okay, if we call this ridiculous play here now they get to win. Thanks very much. I'm glad I bought my tickets. Coming up, comedian Greg Warren will be joining us. But right now, how about a. How about a Christmas classic?

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

What do you say here? Here we go. One of the. From the Bob and Tom Band and Orchestra. What the hell? This isn't what it's supposed to be. What could you get? I asked Jason. I want a new machine. I hate this thing. It only gives you the first, like, 10 letters of what the thing is.

[Josh Arnold]

So I have egg in my mouth because I thought we were going to be able to enjoy a song.

[Tom Griswold]

It just says Christmas Inn. Oh, well, this.

[Pat Godwin]

See, when the bells went on too long, I went, wait a minute. This isn't a Tom production.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah, he wouldn't.

[Josh Arnold]

He claimed it was the Bob and Tom Orchestra.

[Tom Griswold]

This machine is so crappy. It only. It only tells you the time, and then it gives you, like. Like 12 letters.

[Josh Arnold]

I know, I know. You've only been using that machine for what, 30 years?

[Tom Griswold]

It needs to be replaced. This is what happens with corporate ownership. They can't get a machine that's actually functional and working.

[Pat Godwin]

What was that we were hearing?

[Tom Griswold]

What was that?

[Jeff Oskay]

Was the radio.

[Tom Griswold]

Christmas in hell, apparently.

[Josh Arnold]

You could have played it. Nobody would have minded.

[Jeff Oskay]

I was like, oh, I must have missed this deep cut.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, let's.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, now what are we doing with ours in our hands?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wait, we can get into this classic. Hi, I'm Mark Christopher Rorman, host of the nationally syndicated program Bass Talk. Oh, Bass Talk.

[Josh Arnold]

For years, people have asked me, mark Christopher Rohrman, why isn't there a Christmas.

[Tom Griswold]

Album with just bass? Well, now there is. You love bass.

[Josh Arnold]

You'll be amazed by the amazing new Christmas cd.

[Tom Griswold]

Amazing bass.

[Josh Arnold]

Just listen.

[Jeff Oskay]

I can't hear it.

[Tom Griswold]

Be quiet.

[Josh Arnold]

It's back to the basics.

[Greg Warren]

That's pretty.

[Josh Arnold]

Christmas is such an exciting time of.

[Pat Godwin]

Year for the children.

[Josh Arnold]

My young son Nikki loves Christmas.

[Christy Lee]

Amazing bass rocks.

[Josh Arnold]

Santa Claus, lots of toys. Don't wait till it's too late.

[Jeff Oskay]

Order right now to get your CD in time for Christmas delivery.

[Tom Griswold]

It's like my boy Nikki always says.

[Christy Lee]

I like it cuz it's just bass. Guitars and drums are for losers. Turn up the bass.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh yeah, turn up the bass. Nothing says Happy New Year like the bass. Order your copy of Amazing Bass today.

[Tom Griswold]

Just call toll free.

[Pat Godwin]

1-800-.

[Tom Griswold]

There you go. That's it. There's, there's a Christmas classic for you. Amazing bass. Thank you very much. We have. I finally found the other, the other Christmas things, but I just can't tell what's what now we'll get to some.

[Josh Arnold]

Of those coming a fun month.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I don't know how to tell what these are.

[Josh Arnold]

All right, well, somebody will tell you.

[Christy Lee]

It doesn't say what's to say.

[Tom Griswold]

It'll just has like the first 10 letters. Then you've got to figure out the rest.

[Pat Godwin]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay. You'll do fine.

[Christy Lee]

Are the first 10 letters.

[Josh Arnold]

You did fine last year.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, see, it used to be I can. It's hard to. When you would land on one of these, it would give you the full thing at the bottom.

[Christy Lee]

Ah, gotcha.

[Tom Griswold]

And now it no longer does that.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

So thanks, thanks very much for. I'd like to destroy this computer. I've asked for a new one for, for 20 years. It's time for me just to take over. Coming up, comedian Greg Warren will be joining us here in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom show. Live from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Christy Lee is at the Salilac Insurance Company news desk.

[Christy Lee]

Hello.

[Josh Arnold]

Godwin's there.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Jess Hooker has joined us.

[Jess Hooker]

Hi.

[Josh Arnold]

There's Jeff Oscar at the prize pick sports desk. Hey, man. Ace Cosby across the way. Howdy. I'm Josh Arnold of the I Hate Stephen Singer sidekick chair. And there's Tom. Tom. Did you get 6, 7 to death over the weekend, but a couple times. Yeah, I got it a couple times for my niece. And then. And then I did it a couple times.

[Tom Griswold]

But I know the move now.

[Christy Lee]

What's the move?

[Tom Griswold]

It's the air juggling.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, they love that. That. That got big laughs from my niece when I did that. But I learned. My oldest, my older niece, she. She's a freshman and she said in high school, and she said that if you say 6, 7 in class, you get a detention. And if you say it twice, you get, like suspended for two days.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my.

[Josh Arnold]

Her school has cracked down so hard on.

[Jeff Oskay]

On it.

[Josh Arnold]

It must have been so disruptive. Wow. And I told my brother, I said, there's got to be a moment, though, where 6, 7 would be perfect to say.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

And you take that detention.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

And you're a hero.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

And he's like, oh, yeah. Because he and I have the same mentality. That's what we would have done.

[Jess Hooker]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

And detention is somewhat counterproductive. Wait a minute. I mean, I don't have to come.

[Josh Arnold]

To school suspension for sure. Yeah. Detention is.

[Jess Hooker]

Well, it's in school. Suspension is how they do it now.

[Josh Arnold]

Really?

[Jess Hooker]

School system. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

We had both sit there.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. You just have to sit there. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Stare at the wall like Breakfast Club man.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, not a single luxury.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, Saturday school. Did you guys ever have Saturday school?

[Josh Arnold]

It was an option.

[Christy Lee]

I never went.

[Jess Hooker]

But no, I mean, that was in. When you got in trouble. Like.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, it was like detention, then Saturday school, then suspension.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really?

[Jess Hooker]

That was.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

I. Yeah, I had a couple Saturday schools.

[Tom Griswold]

What's going to happen on the 7th of June? Hopefully. Will it be over by then?

[Jeff Oskay]

Oh, it'll be.

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe. But I bet this past 7th of June was big.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Was it? I hadn't. I didn't become aware of it until mid summer, which means that it had been.

[Christy Lee]

Had you found out about it.

[Jeff Oskay]

My lady, she coaches synchronized swimming and they have to count off. They do counts. And she said every time, she's like. Like 5, 6, 7. And they're like 6, 7, like in the water.

[Josh Arnold]

They're gonna drive. Yeah.

[Jeff Oskay]

Start laughing.

[Christy Lee]

There'll be something to replace it soon.

[Tom Griswold]

You're introducing a basketball team, just. Yeah, I guess they'll just call them six' six or six' eight. They'll just skip that one.

[Jeff Oskay]

Well, the new number's 41.

[Christy Lee]

What's 41?

[Jeff Oskay]

Same as six. I like it.

[Josh Arnold]

I like that the kids have these things. They just. It's their thing. Who cares? I love it. I love it.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, well, during the break, we spent some time on this machine.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Stores all of the stuff.

[Christy Lee]

Did you fix it?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. I can. I can now tell you what these things are when I hit the button. This is an obscure one that really is not valid as a Christmas piece. However, in a way, it is. There are certain sounds and certain pieces of music that are all about Christmas. And we have a story coming up about what are considered to be Christmas songs that really were never intended to be, but have become them. Okay, but I think this is valid because certain. Certain music from the Charles Schultz catalog, if you will, from Peanuts, is rightly associated with Christmas.

[Christy Lee]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Because it's just so wonderful that Vince Giraldi. Oh, that stuff is just great. This involves a news story about one of the voice artists from the Charlie Brown world. Fans of Charlie Brown and the Peanuts Gang were shocked and saddened to learn that voice actor Peter Robbins, who portrayed Charlie, was arrested and sentenced to five years in prison for making criminal threats. Inspired by this story, the Bob and Tom Network presents a brand new Charlie Brown special with a plot ripped right from today's headlines. Everyone's favorite love, probable loser. Charlie Brown is apart from the rest of the Peanuts gang for the first time because Charlie Brown got busted and is doing a nickel upstate. Good grief. The cell is really small. My bunk is hard and lumpy, and there's a toilet in the middle of the room. And it smells worthier than at Pigpen's house. It's the new, newest, and grittiest peanut special ever. Oh, hello. I guess you're my cellmate. Gosh, you must really work out. You've got a lot of muscles. So, what are you in for? Gee, did the police ever find the hooker's head? Oh. Huh?

[Greg Warren]

I don't understand.

[Tom Griswold]

Why would I want to wear lipstick?

[Jeff Oskay]

What?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my God.

[Tom Griswold]

It's the new animated television special. You are a prison bitch, Charlie Brown.

[Josh Arnold]

Rats.

[Tom Griswold]

That hurt way more than landing on my back after trying to kick that football.

[Jeff Oskay]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

You sold me for a pack of cigarettes. Good grief. You're a prison bitch, Charlie Brown. Exclusively on the Bob and Tom Network. Oh, thank you very much, man. Merry Christmas. A lesser known Charlie Brown special. Sure, now we do have the story about.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, Mantle Floss collected some festive songs that were not originally meant for the holidays. This one I can totally understand. Baby, it's cold outside never mentions the holidays cold and snowing. It was written in 1944 by Tony Award winning Broadway songwriter Frank Lossier.

[Tom Griswold]

Lesser.

[Pat Godwin]

Lesser Guys and Dolls guy.

[Christy Lee]

It was initially a jokey, flirty party piece for him and his wife, singer Lynn Garland, to perform with their friends. Oh, well, of course, it's become attached to the festive season because of the.

[Tom Griswold]

And then a couple. Wasn't it banned a couple of years ago?

[Christy Lee]

Rewrite the lyrics controversy?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, yeah, because it alludes to him getting her drunk and taking advantage.

[Jeff Oskay]

And I think, how else are you gonna get laid?

[Pat Godwin]

I think the best version out there is Sinatra's. And I think Christy and I right now will reenact that moment. You're gonna go, I really can't stay. And Sinatra will take care.

[Jeff Oskay]

Oh, great.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Go ahead, Christy.

[Pat Godwin]

Me, me, me, me.

[Christy Lee]

I really can't stay.

[Pat Godwin]

You're staying.

[Tom Griswold]

Lack of consensuality, if you.

[Josh Arnold]

Dino's was a little more nuanced.

[Tom Griswold]

Much richer. Yeah, but that was a big. A few years ago, there was a whole thing about it.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. And I know it's not PC, but I love that song. I always love that song. Joey Dashel's version is.

[Tom Griswold]

Leon Redbone, originally a little more jokey. I have a question.

[Christy Lee]

How does she spell Zoe Z O, E, Y. Doesn't she?

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Because I was. Zoe Kravitz spells it Z oe. Wouldn't that be Zoe with.

[Jess Hooker]

With the. With the thing over it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but with the E. Oh, she's got the umlaut.

[Christy Lee]

I've always spelled Zoe Z oe. I didn't.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, both are fine.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Does that mean the Joe is Joe? Joey?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, let's not entertain this.

[Jess Hooker]

No.

[Christy Lee]

If the person that has the name.

[Tom Griswold]

If you're trying to learn English as a second language, it's impossible.

[Josh Arnold]

They say it's. They say it's the hardest.

[Tom Griswold]

It makes no sense. Yeah, well, we've grown up with it and we can't have it make sense. Okay. These are once again songs that were not intended to be for Christmas.

[Christy Lee]

This is one that surprised me. Jingle Bells. Some sources credit the original song, the One Horse Open Sleigh, to James Lord Pierpont, who originally wrote it in 1857 after witnessing the famous sleigh races in Medford, Massachusetts, and intended it to be sung by his Sunday school students for Thanksgiving.

[Josh Arnold]

Interesting.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. However, recent research has shown that the earliest recorded public performance of Jingle Bells was at a minstrel.

[Pat Godwin]

A what?

[Christy Lee]

Minstrel.

[Tom Griswold]

Menstrual show.

[Christy Lee]

Not a minstrel.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. Minstrel.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm laughing at minstrel.

[Pat Godwin]

Sunday Bloody Sunday.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

A review show in Boston in 1857.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, jingle bell How I love you.

[Christy Lee]

How I love you My M I N S T R. No, no, you're right. It's just.

[Tom Griswold]

I thought you said a menstrual show.

[Christy Lee]

Which would be casting doubt to the original story of so who knows?

[Josh Arnold]

It's crazy that that's what that.

[Jeff Oskay]

Man.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But I think you've got the. The Sleigh Bells if you want to do. It's a joke in the studio. Anytime you want to make anything a Christmas song, you just play Sleigh Bells. You could make Iron man by Ozzy a Christmas song if you had the sleigh bells in it.

[Christy Lee]

Joy to the World was originally written by Isaac Watts in the 1700s. The song actually started out as an adaptation of the old Testament Psalm 98.

[Josh Arnold]

Sure.

[Christy Lee]

Before the existing tune was written by Boston composer and church musician Lowell Mason in 1830.

[Tom Griswold]

I think they say that's more of an Eastern song. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I can see that.

[Tom Griswold]

The Lord has come. I think that's the one. That one. But the one I don't get that is a Christmas song that I can't find any justification for. Is from the Sound of Music.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, right, right, right. These are a few of our favorite.

[Tom Griswold]

Favorite.

[Josh Arnold]

Because it's potentially gifts. Yeah, potentially.

[Jess Hooker]

We sing that in choir for our Christmas concert.

[Tom Griswold]

But it does. It doesn't mention.

[Christy Lee]

It wraps paper wrapping paper.

[Tom Griswold]

It doesn't mention Christmas or Jesus or.

[Josh Arnold]

Santa, which is why schools like to do it.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, that's true.

[Tom Griswold]

That's. That's an interesting.

[Christy Lee]

That's not.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, no, some of that is. Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

But that song isn't on.

[Pat Godwin]

The one that surprises me is Here Comes Peter Cottontail.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, right.

[Pat Godwin]

That's not a Christmas song.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

The melody is so Christmassy.

[Christy Lee]

Do you have a Christmas song?

[Pat Godwin]

Tons.

[Christy Lee]

Do you?

[Pat Godwin]

Being ignored.

[Christy Lee]

Would you like to come back and play a song for us?

[Pat Godwin]

I would love to.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I mean, the one of the ones. What's that one? What's the Mariah Carey one?

[Christy Lee]

All I want for Christmas.

[Tom Griswold]

That was originally written for the terrorist prisoners in Guantanamo to see if they'd cough up.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my God.

[Josh Arnold]

Everybody loves that.

[Christy Lee]

What are you doing?

[Josh Arnold]

They would needed something to play on repeat over and over and over.

[Tom Griswold]

It would make them confess. No.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh.

[Christy Lee]

Tannenbaum is also on this list.

[Josh Arnold]

Sure.

[Christy Lee]

It's thought to date back to the 1500s. It earned various verses over the centuries. But with Tannenbaum translating to fir tree, it ultimately became associated with Christmas amid the widespread adaptation of decorated fir trees in the Victorian era.

[Josh Arnold]

And then we took it and went, oh, Christmas tree.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you sing for Jingle Bells? Did you do the Batman version? Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Batman smells. Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Robin laid an A. Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

How does it go again?

[Josh Arnold]

Batman smells.

[Jess Hooker]

Robin laid an egg.

[Josh Arnold]

Batmobile lost his wheel. Joker got away. Hey.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

I never knew there was a second line to that.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't either. That is, that is so enlightening. It's like the Rosetta Stone for me. It's opened up a whole new world. We'll get some more of these. I, I'm a big fan of Christmas music in general. There are only a couple, like, I can't take anymore. But. And I like, even as you say the classics.

[Christy Lee]

I love the classics. There just needs to be some new classics.

[Tom Griswold]

I think there are. We've already had this argument.

[Josh Arnold]

There are definitely songs that remind me of winter that aren't winter songs at all. It's just I just, when they were big or whenever I heard them, a lot like, oh, boy. Bittersweet Symphony.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that song.

[Josh Arnold]

I remember it played on the Muzak in a movie theater I worked at. And I remember listening that as it just snowed so heavily outside. In movie theater, there's. It's all glass in the front. So I was just watching the snow in that song. So that always reminds me of winter, even though it has nothing to do.

[Tom Griswold]

With, you know, Silent Night was originally written by a guy whose wife had gone out with her girlfriends for the evening.

[Josh Arnold]

It was originally titled Peace and Quiet.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And then he said, this isn't a bad riff. Maybe I can make this a little semi religious. Thank you so much for tolerating this. Coming up, comedian Greg Warren will be our guest here in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

He smiled and then was A little embarrassed and ran off. But then he came back after 30 seconds.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah, but.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it was just fantastic.

[Tom Griswold]

I had a weird thing. I was at NFL game yesterday, and there was this kid behind me probably, I don't know, 12, 13. And I. @ first I was kind of annoyed, and then I noticed something. He was a very astute young man. And he would. He'd. He was making the calls. He'd go, yeah, I can. That was. That. That was that penalty downfield. And after a while, then he'd go, yeah, they're gonna do this for the next. And he was right all the time. This kid needs to get a gig on the network. He was really smart, really knew what he was. Was much more than mean, knew what he was talking.

[Josh Arnold]

About. That's rare when the guy behind you at the stadium talking about the game actually knows.

[Tom Griswold]

What.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. And he's.

[Tom Griswold]

Sober. Yeah, that was. That was defensive holding. Then you see the.

[Josh Arnold]

Guy. How did he.

[Tom Griswold]

Know? This kid's a genius. I'm glad he had good seats. Yeah, very entertaining. Now the guy left. To my left, four seats that wouldn't stop.

[Josh Arnold]

Singing.

[Tom Griswold]

Defense. Okay, we got it. Okay, thanks. That'll.

[Christy Lee]

Help. Now maybe he.

[Tom Griswold]

Never. Let's. Let's move forward. Here we have Christy Lee at the Silac Insurance news desk. We're getting some of our Christmas classics on. We'll get to those in just a few minutes if you've got a.

[Christy Lee]

I thought Pat was going to treat.

[Tom Griswold]

Us. Oh, do you have one.

[Pat Godwin]

Song? I have lots, but apparently, yes. I'd love to do.

[Christy Lee]

One. What do I have to.

[Josh Arnold]

Do? So.

[Christy Lee]

Excited. Kiss you on the forehead to get you to sing a.

[I]

Song? Come.

[Tom Griswold]

On. Is this the one from the McGonagall.

[Pat Godwin]

Brothers? No, I thought that was.

[Tom Griswold]

Canceled. I think it was banned.

[Pat Godwin]

No. Oh, yeah, you can. You have to do that on your own. That's a group effort. I can't replicate that. But I can take something and make it a very tender. You want something kind of.

[Christy Lee]

Sweet?

[Josh Arnold]

Sure. All.

[Pat Godwin]

Right. You know Crystal and Amber, Roxy and Brandy, angel and Ginger, Raven and Candy Bato. You recall the most famous stripper of all, Susie the sober stripper had a very healthy glow and if you'd breathalyze her, she would blow a.

[Christy Lee]

Point. Oh.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh. All of the other strippers would drink a lot to numb the pain. Susie would do her homework and never join their drinking games. Then one sloppy New Year's Eve the manager came to say Suzy, with your nose so bright Won't you drive us home tonight? All of the strippers thanked her for getting them home safely. Susie, the sober stripper, she won't go down for you or me. No daddy issue. Merry.

[Tom Griswold]

Christmas. Okay, thank you very much.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat. Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

Susie. Now, let's move forward here in the world of news. Christy, what have you.

[Christy Lee]

Got? British scientists have developed a pair of robotic trousers that would allow astronauts to move more freely in space. According to a study published in Advanced Science, the lightweight robotic exosuit is worn underneath a spacesuit and features artificial muscles that work to help astronauts reduce muscular fatigue while maintaining natural movements in.

[Tom Griswold]

Space. I. I don't want a pair of pants that need WI fi and a.

[Josh Arnold]

Password.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yes. I wonder if it's the same people that did the parachute pants they've upgraded.

[Josh Arnold]

To. There was no reason to upgrade those. They were perfect as they. Weren't.

[Christy Lee]

They? Ah, the old parachute.

[Tom Griswold]

Pants. Brief moment in history, wasn't.

[Jeff Oskay]

It? Oh, man, that week and a half, the people with those were my.

[Christy Lee]

Hero. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Cool. Everything comes.

[Jess Hooker]

Back. They're kind of back, only they're calling them barreled pants now. Wouldn't you say? That's.

[Christy Lee]

Close. Yeah, but I just see barrel jeans. Do they make them in that.

[Jess Hooker]

Shiny? Oh, I don't.

[Christy Lee]

Know. Parachute pants are that shiny. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Almost.

[Tom Griswold]

Vinyl. Is that.

[Pat Godwin]

What. But a Fuko wore the parachute pants, or is that something.

[Jess Hooker]

Different? Oh, yeah, right. Yes, that's what those.

[Christy Lee]

Are. Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. Like the athletic.

[Tom Griswold]

Pants. What are the.

[Jeff Oskay]

Ones? Oh, I thought he wore the.

[Josh Arnold]

Zuba. Yeah, he wore something a little.

[Tom Griswold]

Different. Yeah, the Zubaz were. I think you can still get them. They were like a colorful print, real.

[Jess Hooker]

Lightweight. So did the NFL introduce those, or were they their own thing, and then the NFL took.

[Tom Griswold]

Them? Yes, they licensed them. Yeah. Every NFL team had Zubas. Donnie Baker wore them.

[Jess Hooker]

Always.

[Josh Arnold]

Always. My parachute pants. My grandparents, it was one of those things, was like, you can get these for Christmas, but both your grandparents are going in on.

[Jeff Oskay]

Them. What.

[Josh Arnold]

Color? Gray. They were like a steel gray or something. A lot of.

[Pat Godwin]

Zippers. They were that.

[Josh Arnold]

Expensive? Oh, yeah, yeah. When they were. At least for our family. I don't.

[Tom Griswold]

Know. But is there other guys wearing in the. In the don't touch this or can't touch this.

[Pat Godwin]

Video? Those are hammer.

[Christy Lee]

Pants. Hammer pants. Those are extremely genius. But the parachute pants did have, like, the zippers on them in some.

[Jeff Oskay]

Instances. 37 zippers for some.

[Christy Lee]

Reason. Yeah, but Jess is right. They are kind of back in a different style. Like a baggy. Yeah, baggy.

[Tom Griswold]

Workout. Do we have a picture of the robot pants? There we go. It looks.

[Christy Lee]

Like. They look like you're. You just had surgery on both your.

[Tom Griswold]

Knees. Yeah. It looks kind of like someone who's had a severe injury. And does it.

[Josh Arnold]

Not? No, I know what I'm saying. They're not pants.

[Christy Lee]

No. At all. Yeah, not at.

[Tom Griswold]

All. They go under your. It's. What does it say that you put your pants over them? They're calling.

[Christy Lee]

Them. They're calling them robotic trousers. But you. But you put it.

[Josh Arnold]

Under. They are.

[Tom Griswold]

Not. No, it's to.

[Christy Lee]

Assist.

[Josh Arnold]

Misleading. Whatever it takes for those guys and women to have to do whatever they have to.

[Tom Griswold]

Do. Yeah, but see, my problem with this would be if something goes wrong, you're going to get a wedgie that's going to sever your testicles. You've got a lot of. A lot of metal down.

[Josh Arnold]

There. The.

[Tom Griswold]

Robo. The robo.

[Josh Arnold]

Wedgie. Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

Man. Ground control to major.

[Christy Lee]

Time. Because robots are not, you know, they're not always right. Like in this case, a humanoid robot developed by Russian engineers, face planted during its public debut.

[Josh Arnold]

Recently. I love when stuff like.

[Tom Griswold]

This. Have you seen this.

[Christy Lee]

Video? It's the.

[Josh Arnold]

Best. Has this person already been.

[Christy Lee]

Executed? Aldol, Russia's first humanoid robot with artificial intelligence was being introduced by developers at a technology event in Moscow when the robot collapsed on stage after making a few awkward steps. Video shows two men quickly pulling the robot away while a third drags a large black curtain across the.

[Josh Arnold]

Stage. Oh, that guy. The curtain.

[Jess Hooker]

Guy. That's.

[Tom Griswold]

Funny. Robo flop. They. Yeah, these guys, they're already in Siberia. Yeah, this happened a couple weeks.

[Josh Arnold]

Ago. They're in the gulag for.

[Christy Lee]

Sure. CEO Vladimir told Russian news outlet.

[Josh Arnold]

RBK, Please send me to the U.S.

[Tom Griswold]

He'S now a Christmas pillow at Putin's.

[Christy Lee]

House. Said the robot had been tested under various conditions and the fall could have occurred due to insufficient lighting or a malfunction. But yeah, we have the.

[Tom Griswold]

Video. Okay, here we go. Here it is. Okay. The robot standing up. Okay. They turn him on.

[Josh Arnold]

He. Very.

[Tom Griswold]

Awkward. Takes two, three, four steps and he's down. Nope, you got two more in. There he goes. He's.

[Jess Hooker]

Down. He looks.

[Christy Lee]

Drunk. He.

[Josh Arnold]

Does.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah. Well, he's.

[Josh Arnold]

Russian. What did.

[Tom Griswold]

He. Well, that's true. They needed WD40, not.

[Christy Lee]

Vodka. Look, here's. Here's the guy with the.

[Josh Arnold]

Cur. There's nothing to.

[Pat Godwin]

See. There's.

[Josh Arnold]

No. Thank you all. Thank.

[Pat Godwin]

You. Thank you for.

[Tom Griswold]

Coming. So if you're one of these guys, do you just take the elevator up to the 20th floor and.

[Josh Arnold]

Jump? Yeah, I'll just.

[Tom Griswold]

Die. Now.

[Josh Arnold]

Do. Instead of spending the next three weeks looking over my shoulder, some guy with an umbrella with a syringe attached to it, he's gonna just stick into my thigh as he walks by.

[Tom Griswold]

Me. Does someone go up to Putin and go, well, it's had 8 billion hits on the Internet, Mr. President, do.

[Josh Arnold]

You remember the video of Putin's ice skating and he's going around the rink and he trips over like this carpet and eats it so bad? No, the two guys behind him you just see in their faces were just.

[Christy Lee]

Dead. Yeah, we're.

[Josh Arnold]

Dead. We did. We, we forgot to move this little bit of.

[Jess Hooker]

Carpet.

[Tom Griswold]

Gosh. Was Putin shirtless even though outside he loves taking his. Loves taking his shirt.

[Christy Lee]

Off.

[Tom Griswold]

[Tom Griswold]

Warren. Hey, Greg, how's it.

[Christy Lee]

Going? Hi.

[Greg Warren]

Greg. Hey, guys. How you.

[Tom Griswold]

Doing? Good, good. Got a letter here for.

[Josh Arnold]

You. And he has a hat for you, if you haven't.

[Tom Griswold]

Noticed. Oh, cool, an Otis elevator.

[Greg Warren]

Cap. Yeah. What do you think of.

[Tom Griswold]

That? That's nice. I'm a big fan. You know, I'm very brand loyal. If I go to a high rise building, if it's not a notice, I'm taking the stairs. That's a.

[Greg Warren]

Devoted. That's impressive, man. That's brand loyalty right.

[Tom Griswold]

There. Oh, yeah. They've even got him over in Europe, we got a letter from somebody that was fortunately able to ride up because it wasn't Otis. Now, Greg, you've got a bunch of shows coming up in Columbus, Ohio this weekend. Very exciting. And we got a letter from someone who really went out of their way to get tickets for that show on Saturday night. But now their favorite football teams are engaged in a, in a very important football game that.

[Greg Warren]

Evening. Big Ten championship on Saturday.

[Jeff Oskay]

Night. Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Sir. Sure.

[Greg Warren]

Is. Well, that's not going to help ticket.

[Tom Griswold]

Sales. They can go see you on.

[Greg Warren]

Friday. You'd be confronted with some good news this.

[Tom Griswold]

Morning. But you've got three shows on Saturday if I'm not mistaken. Is that correct or just.

[Greg Warren]

Two? I think it's.

[Tom Griswold]

Two. Okay. Well, there are people, those, there are people who enjoy that don't enjoy college football. I know you're doing an all ages show on Sunday in.

[Greg Warren]

Columbus. Yes. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So that'll be.

[Greg Warren]

Fun. Yeah, yeah. That club is awesome. It's a really good.

[Josh Arnold]

Time. Greg, you did a live, the first live podcast of the consumers last night. And my friend Dave was there in the St. Louis area. He sent me a photo. Oh, yeah, yeah.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. So, yeah, we did some important work. We did Entenmann's pastries as a.

[Josh Arnold]

Brand. Big.

[Christy Lee]

Fan.

[Greg Warren]

Yes. Yeah. And we, we had a sort of a taste off. And the cinnamon, the crumb top donut was the.

[Josh Arnold]

Winner. That is a terrific.

[Greg Warren]

Product. It's an excellent product. So what we did, Josh, is then we put that crumb top donut up against the Little Debbie Christmas tree cake and it won against.

[Josh Arnold]

That. Yes, it.

[Christy Lee]

Does. Yeah, it.

[Josh Arnold]

Would. I.

[Tom Griswold]

Agree. So you're doing important.

[Greg Warren]

Work. Yeah, yeah, it's.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And is there an extra N and N.

[Josh Arnold]

Tenmans? I don't know if it's.

[Greg Warren]

Successful. Yes, there is. It's intendments.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. But everybody says intamins.

[Josh Arnold]

Right? I say.

[Tom Griswold]

Intense. Oh, you get.

[Josh Arnold]

The. Oh, I say.

[Christy Lee]

Intamins. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. It's kind of, kind of a little wisp of an N in.

[Greg Warren]

There. No, that's, that's not the brand this week. But just, just to give you a little info on it. Did you guys know they were the first one to have the see through pastry.

[Josh Arnold]

Box? Very smart, Very smart. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. They are Danish is really.

[Greg Warren]

Good. Oh, you like the.

[Christy Lee]

Danish? I.

[Greg Warren]

Do. They were for the most part most of their business was in Bayshore, Long island, which is where my grandparents lived, which.

[Josh Arnold]

Is. Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Now Greg is on tour once again. We mentioned Columbus, Ohio, the Funny Bone coming up this weekend. Your first show is Friday, right?

[Greg Warren]

Right. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Yeah, go. Go see regular. And then I know you're going to be in Cincinnati at Liberty Townships Funny Bone the following Thursday. So you're very.

[Greg Warren]

Busy. December, that's it. You know, Tom, I don't want to brag, but we've sold out six shows there. We added a. A seventh show in Cincinnati. So I think there's tickets available on that, like maybe Saturday matinee.

[Tom Griswold]

Show. That's.

[Josh Arnold]

Great. All.

[Tom Griswold]

Right. That's great. We're speaking with comedian Greg Warren. What is our topic for today?

[Greg Warren]

Today. Today I want to talk about White Castle.

[Josh Arnold]

Hamburgers. Guys, let's do.

[Christy Lee]

It. Let's do.

[Tom Griswold]

It.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. Big fan, interestingly enough, headquartered in Columbus.

[Christy Lee]

Ohio.

[Greg Warren]

Oh. Where I'm going this weekend. But a long time ago, Walt Anderson and Billy Ingram met at the Rotary Club, and they decided to. To. To start a venture. They originally called it the White Castle System of Eating.

[Tom Griswold]

Houses. That's.

[Greg Warren]

Cumbersome. Bit of a mouthful, wouldn't you say.

[Christy Lee]

Tom? Yeah, especially for such.

[Greg Warren]

A. It's like that movie that I talk about on this report several times. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward, Robert Ford, blah, blah, you.

[Tom Griswold]

Know. Yeah.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. It's. It's too much. They were. Get ready for it. The first fast food.

[Josh Arnold]

Chain. Holy cow. Who.

[Tom Griswold]

Knew?

[Greg Warren]

2. Did you guys know.

[Pat Godwin]

That? No, not at.

[Greg Warren]

All. Who do you think was number.

[Tom Griswold]

Two? Was it McDonald's.

[Greg Warren]

Or. I'm gonna say Burger White Castle in 1921. KFC in.

[Jeff Oskay]

1930.

[Greg Warren]

Ah. And Dairy Queen and McDonald's both came in.

[Josh Arnold]

1940.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. Jack in the Box.

[Tom Griswold]

1951.

[Greg Warren]

One. They. This is sort of coming off of the, you know, meat with meat didn't have such a good name in the early 1900s, thanks to our buddy Upton Sinclair, who wrote the.

[Josh Arnold]

Jungle. Well, he pointed out some things that maybe needed to be.

[Greg Warren]

Changed. Yes, Josh, One of the quotes in the book was they used everything about the hog except the.

[Josh Arnold]

Squeal.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. So the. The name White Castle. The white was to connote cleanliness, and the castle was to indicate permanence and stability. Apparently, the. Back in the day, the, The. The hamburger industry was very fly by night. This. This is true. Like, this is true. I don't know what I was like, hey, you want to go get that Joe's hamburgers? No, that's. That's a Joanne fabrics now. And they were. They were real big on the clean stuff. Of course, because of the meat, the employees had to wear clean white shirts, white pants and aprons. Hair was to be covered by a white paper cap. Fingernails were to be kept clean. That seems.

[Josh Arnold]

Obvious. Fingernails weren't covered by tiny white paper caps like.

[Greg Warren]

Bugles. Yes, yes. And elaborate jewelry and wrist stretches were strictly prohibited. So from what I could tell, Flavor Flav would not, not have had a job back then at Dairy.

[Christy Lee]

Queen. You mean White.

[Tom Griswold]

Cast. White.

[Josh Arnold]

Cast. White.

[Jeff Oskay]

Either.

[Greg Warren]

Really? I'm.

[Tom Griswold]

Sorry.

[Greg Warren]

Not. Yeah, I'm sorry. White Castle. Yes. Yeah. He had, he had elaborate jewelry. I'm talking about the clock around his neck.

[Tom Griswold]

Right.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. They were vertically integrated, which means. This is a tricky term for me, but it's. They had like a paper hat company called Paper.

[Josh Arnold]

Linen. Ah, I got.

[Tom Griswold]

You.

[Greg Warren]

You. And then they had a company that made porcelain steel buildings, which was what their buildings were. They tried that. Paper buildings and porcelain steel hats, but didn't work out very.

[Tom Griswold]

Well. No, no, it makes sense.

[Greg Warren]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. The first rainy day and it was, it was.

[Greg Warren]

Over. They helped during World War II build amphibious.

[Josh Arnold]

Vehicles. White.

[Greg Warren]

Castle. Yes, White Castle did. They said they smelled a bit like onions, but they were. They worked.

[Josh Arnold]

Fine. You ever hear that rumor that White Castle didn't use onions, they used.

[Greg Warren]

Beets? No, I didn't know.

[Josh Arnold]

That. Like, it was something. It was like, way cheaper to use beets than onions. I don't know. I don't know how way cheaper beets are than.

[Greg Warren]

Onions. And on.

[Josh Arnold]

Onions. I know. I think beets are more.

[Greg Warren]

Expensive. They're definitely more expensive. The other thing is, this is a little secret. Guys from a shopper regular shop in the Pro. You know how the produce bags are just, they're just not very.

[Christy Lee]

Good.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. But you go over to that onion and potato section. They got some real sturdy produce bags. I, I, I shouldn't probably say this on air, but I, I go over there, get, get onion and, and potato bags and take them over and put broccoli in.

[Josh Arnold]

Them. Oh, you're a.

[Greg Warren]

Monster. Yeah, I.

[Tom Griswold]

Know. There's a convenient life hack. I'll have to remember that.

[Josh Arnold]

Never. I've stopped using them. I've stopped using them for onions and potatoes. I just let those, they're free balling in my cart and car just.

[Greg Warren]

Rolling around in the.

[Josh Arnold]

Cart. Yep. I skin.

[Greg Warren]

Them. I guess that makes sense.

[Tom Griswold]

Now. Have you ever heard of the White Castle stuffing for a turkey at.

[Greg Warren]

Thanksgiving? I haven't, but I.

[Tom Griswold]

Don'T. That's a big.

[Christy Lee]

Thing.

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. I don't care for stuffing.

[Josh Arnold]

Really. Oh, my.

[Christy Lee]

Gosh. What's wrong with.

[Josh Arnold]

You? That's.

[Christy Lee]

Interesting. I had a guest at my Table this year that had never had stuffing before. They'd never had it at their family.

[Jeff Oskay]

Thanksgiving.

[Jess Hooker]

What?

[Greg Warren]

Yes. I just. Yeah, I was shocked. I baked pies this year, though.

[Christy Lee]

Guys. All.

[Josh Arnold]

Right. You're very good at.

[Greg Warren]

That. Like homemade baked three. Three pumpkin and three sweet potato.

[Christy Lee]

Pies. Nice.

[Tom Griswold]

Nice. Give anybody a good.

[Josh Arnold]

Stuffing. You like.

[Pat Godwin]

That. Like that.

[Greg Warren]

Humor particularly? I.

[Tom Griswold]

Like. Tom. No, but I'm go. Go back to my original point. There was a. If you Google it, there is.

[Josh Arnold]

A.

[Tom Griswold]

A. There is a White Castle hamburger stuffing recipe. Yeah, it's kind of popular. Gives.

[Greg Warren]

You. I'm gonna guess he was Googling that during this.

[Tom Griswold]

Report. No, no, I am staring. The only thing I googled, I'm looking at a very nice picture. It says Greg Warren, the salesman, which I was actually referencing earlier. I was. If you're. If you are any kind of a coach, you must hear Greg's comedy special, the Salesman. It is that the hunk about. About coaching and sports is just dead on brilliant. So I highly recommend it. Not to mention where the field corn grows, which I'm now popping.

[Josh Arnold]

Up. Or his latest special, the.

[Tom Griswold]

Champ. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Sorry. You always forget the new.

[Tom Griswold]

One. Sorry. No, I'm. I little. I'm staring at the. At his website, looking at the. His.

[Greg Warren]

Dates. Did you guys know there were several White Castle knockoffs back in the.

[Josh Arnold]

Day? White Palace, I went to. There was kind of a hot, hot server there who was a little.

[Greg Warren]

Promiscuous. Josh, that was a.

[Josh Arnold]

Movie. Oh, man. It was really something. I went in.

[Tom Griswold]

There. It's a.

[Greg Warren]

Movie. Susan.

[Tom Griswold]

Sarandon. It's.

[Greg Warren]

Not. There.

[Tom Griswold]

Was. There was.

[Greg Warren]

A. A white fortress. There was a white hut. And then. This is my favorite White Castle knockoff. It was called White Castle with a K. No, no, they just took his White Castle. They just did it. You know, they. They. They would say, take home a sack. Take home a sack full, I believe is their wow slogan. Take home a sack full. That's White Castles. There was a company in Milwaukee called White Tower, and they had a whole different slant on it. They said, take home a bag.

[Josh Arnold]

Full. There were some.

[Christy Lee]

Restaurants. They were.

[Greg Warren]

Sued. They were sued in 1929 for.

[Josh Arnold]

$82,000. I'll.

[Pat Godwin]

Say. Wasn't crust crystal pretty much the same thing.

[Christy Lee]

Too?

[Josh Arnold]

Crystal? To me, they taste very.

[Greg Warren]

Different.

[Pat Godwin]

Crystal. They're.

[Greg Warren]

Different. Clean as a crystal is why they. They came up with that name. I don't know if there was any legal proceedings.

[Josh Arnold]

Involved. Crystals are bigger than White Castles and they're. They're very mustard heavy. Oh, are.

[Greg Warren]

They? I like mustard I've never had a.

[Josh Arnold]

Crystal. There were a lot of some other White Castle rip offs. I know in the 50s there were a lot of restaurants that were whites.

[Greg Warren]

Only. I think that's a different.

[Tom Griswold]

Thing. Josh, talk about vertical integration. If you're standing, if you can play.

[Greg Warren]

Hoops. I don't think I even mentioned this. This thing started in Wichita.

[Josh Arnold]

Kansas. Did you hear my whites only.

[Jess Hooker]

Joke?

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, he just gave a look. Radio.

[Greg Warren]

Listener. Thanks.

[Josh Arnold]

Pat. Times were.

[Greg Warren]

Different. Josh, you want to go back to your.

[Josh Arnold]

Joke? I think I covered.

[Tom Griswold]

It. We'd like to cover it right now. Like a cat in the litter box. Greg Warren is our guest. Greg is a distinguished stand up comedian and he's got a secret project out there. I'm not even gonna mention it. But he does have, as you mentioned, some dates coming up, including Columbus, Ohio this weekend and a must see and some great specials that are floating around out there, including the Champ, which you can find on YouTube, the salesman and where the field corn grows all.

[Josh Arnold]

Terrific. Hey, Greg, did you know. So you and I grew up in the St. Louis area and White Castle had onion rings. Other areas have onion petals or onions.

[Christy Lee]

Chips. They're called onion.

[Josh Arnold]

Chips. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's always disappointing to me because I want the.

[Greg Warren]

Rings. Yeah, I agree. White Castle. Aren't they the ones that. They have the chicken rings.

[Jeff Oskay]

Too?

[Greg Warren]

Yeah. Which just sound awful. And I gotta say, I tried one and it was like, this is pretty.

[Jeff Oskay]

Good. Yeah, they're.

[Josh Arnold]

Delicious. They are.

[Greg Warren]

[Josh Arnold]

Family. Oh, I had no.

[Christy Lee]

Idea. I didn't know that.

[Greg Warren]

Either. This is true. I called, called White Castle's like headquarter number or 1,800Number to ask about franchises just because I was curious. It said, for franchise information, press 5. I press 5. We do not have franchises. They made me press a button for it. I was like, for the free hamburger giveaway, press 7. There is no free hamburger.

[Tom Griswold]

Giveaway. By the way, are there any of those numbers where they haven't recently changed their menu? Every time you call them. Pay attention. We've changed.

[Greg Warren]

Our. Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Every time. No matter what they.

[Greg Warren]

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. All.

[Josh Arnold]

Right. Makes.

[Tom Griswold]

Sense. And do you chop them.

[Christy Lee]

[Josh Arnold]

It. It really does make.

[Pat Godwin]

Sense. You know, it's not a bad idea. You got your bread, you got your.

[Christy Lee]

Onions. It only takes 35 minutes to cook. It's not a bad.

[Tom Griswold]

Idea. A little side dish. There you go. Yeah, we learned. We learned a couple weeks ago. What, 90 was it? 90% of people said the best part about Thanksgiving was the side.

[Jess Hooker]

Dishes.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. And I just believe that the lady at our table had never had stuffing. But before. She loved it, but it was.

[Tom Griswold]

Just. Had she ever had a good.

[Christy Lee]

Stuffing? I didn't ask.

[Josh Arnold]

That. Why didn't you.

[Pat Godwin]

Ask?

[Tom Griswold]

Stuffing. Here's a Zelda. You're pretty uptight.

[Christy Lee]

Stuffing. Her family just didn't have it. I mean, that's how.

[Pat Godwin]

People. Wasn't condoned in our.

[Josh Arnold]

Family. Everything was not for our.

Family. Would it be great if there were There were religious orders that had some completely wacky, you know, sort of things you couldn't.

[Jeff Oskay]

Do. Oh, there are fish on.

[Tom Griswold]

Friday. Yeah, but. Yeah, exactly. Except, I mean, even more incredibly bizarre. Now, if you're gonna get a McDonald's fish sandwich, you. You can't have the cheese. What? It's just like a crazy, random. But now that you mentioned it, they're all that way, aren't they? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Stuff. Tom Crispin, I just want to say I was doing some reading over the.

[Josh Arnold]

Weekend.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And if. If you're a kid out there, it's my understanding that you're more likely to get a response from Santa if you actually write a.

[Josh Arnold]

Letter.

[Tom Griswold]

Sure. As opposed to texting or.

[Jeff Oskay]

Emailing.

[Tom Griswold]

Right. I'm just.

[Christy Lee]

Saying.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. That's what. That's what the authorities are telling.

[Tom Griswold]

Mail.

[Jess Hooker]

Sure. Is there a Santa text.

[Tom Griswold]

Line? Oh, if there isn't, there should.

[Josh Arnold]

Be. In fact, I think I heard, Tom, that you even like the text lines and the emails and stuff. Those don't actually go directly to Santa, but the letters.

[Jeff Oskay]

Do. Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

So. Okay. All right. Good to know, good to.

[Christy Lee]

Know. Did your kids send letters to.

[Tom Griswold]

Santa? There have already been some lists that have shown.

[Josh Arnold]

Up. Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Good. All.

[Tom Griswold]

Right. I have a nine year old that has better handwriting than I.

[Christy Lee]

Do. Oh, that's not.

[Josh Arnold]

Tough. Same.

[Christy Lee]

Same. I've seen.

[Jeff Oskay]

Your. I had a list emailed to me with. With.

[Christy Lee]

Links. I did.

[Jeff Oskay]

Too. To all of the things they.

[Josh Arnold]

Wanted. I love.

[Jess Hooker]

It. My son asked for that. He goes, just send me five things that you want. And I said, oh, okay. I thought that was.

[Jeff Oskay]

Sweet. Yeah, it was.

[Jess Hooker]

Great. Adult kids, I get gifts.

[Josh Arnold]

Now. Yeah, there you.

[Christy Lee]

Go. So was your list.

[Tom Griswold]

Incursive? No, no, no, no, no. Then I would have shredded it had it been.

[Josh Arnold]

Incursive.

[Tom Griswold]

They. They know my.

[Christy Lee]

Rules.

[Tom Griswold]

Really? Yes. No, cursive is.

[Christy Lee]

For. Did they learn cursive or were.

[Tom Griswold]

They. I don't know. I hope.

[Josh Arnold]

Not. Well, if not, then they're semi.

[Tom Griswold]

Illiterate. Okay, let's just move forward. What have you got over there at the news.

[Christy Lee]

Desk? Three Austrian nuns who ran away from their retirement home are going to be allowed to stay in their former convent under a few conditions. I don't know if you remember this story, but no more scissoring.

[Josh Arnold]

Jesus. That's just one of the.

[Pat Godwin]

Rules. Christy, the Catholic just gave you a.

[Josh Arnold]

Drink. You don't think that's a rule? School nuns aren't allowed to.

[Pat Godwin]

Scissor. To.

[Tom Griswold]

Use. No, no. Let them just stew in.

[Christy Lee]

It. Sister Bernadette, 88. Sister Regina, don't say fire, 86. And Sister Rita, 82, made headlines back in September for scissor after they fled their retirement home to return to their Clouser Goldenstein.

[Josh Arnold]

Convent. You go Clauster, not cloister.

[Christy Lee]

Huh? Yeah, it says.

[Tom Griswold]

Cluster. I just found it unusual that it's a Catholic convent called named Goldenstein.

[Pat Godwin]

Golden right by.

[Christy Lee]

It. I. I saw that too. Wait a.

[Tom Griswold]

Minute. They in touch with how this supposed to.

[Christy Lee]

Work? The three women said they were taken out of the convent and transferred to a Catholic retirement home against their will. In 2023, the octogenarians had regained access to their convent with the help of a former student and a.

[Tom Griswold]

Locksmith. And this is. This just shouts.

[Christy Lee]

Movie. Yeah. A spokesman for the provost, Harold.

[Jeff Oskay]

Schliffey.

[Christy Lee]

Oh. Schliffey told the Austrian press agency that he has made them an offer to stay for now. But among the conditions, they have to give up their social media accounts. Which by the way, it amassed hundreds of thousands of followers after this.

[Josh Arnold]

Incident. Ladies, you can live here, but no more. Only fans.

[Christy Lee]

Please. And they will be allowed to stay and be provided with medical care and spiritual support from a.

[Tom Griswold]

Priest. This reminds me of. Have you seen that commercial? It's for Amazon with the three ladies sitting on the park.

[Josh Arnold]

Bench. Oh, that's a sweet.

[Tom Griswold]

Commercial. And they order the.

[Josh Arnold]

Sleds. The sleds or the seats at least to go on the.

[Tom Griswold]

Sled. Yeah. And they're. They're playing a pat. They're playing a Beatles song. I think they're playing In My.

[Josh Arnold]

Life. Yes, they.

[Tom Griswold]

Are. Instrumental version of it. It's a great commercial. But this, this has to be made into a.

[Christy Lee]

Movie. The nuns have indicated in a statement they're not entirely happy with the offer, saying it had, quote, Quote, the character of a gagging.

[Tom Griswold]

Contract. Well, yeah, yeah. They, they. They're gonna let them live in the place that they've been for years. Only if they get off the media. They're winning this thing.

[Josh Arnold]

They're. They're winning the PR.

[Tom Griswold]

War. They can probably sell the movie rights and buy the convent maybe if, if it's for sale. Although I understand Mr. Goldenstein is.

[Jeff Oskay]

Gonna. Everything's for.

[Tom Griswold]

Sale. Offering a quite a hard bargain. How can this place be called.

[Christy Lee]

That? I don't.

[Tom Griswold]

Know. It just. It just makes no.

[Christy Lee]

Sense.

[Tom Griswold]

It's. I think it must be said that social media can be a bad habit. It has to be said anytime you do a none thing, you have to get a bad habit joke in there. This has to be. This place has to be freezing. Why, it's in the Alps. It's got to be colder than hell in there. I mean, are they going to be able to.

[Christy Lee]

Get. They've been living there for.

[Tom Griswold]

Years. I know, but they, It's. They've been kicked out. It's been shuttered and they break.

[Christy Lee]

Back in, use wood like they did before Wood.

[Tom Griswold]

Probably. These poor nuns right there chopping up.

[Josh Arnold]

Wood. They want to be there.

[Tom Griswold]

Man. I know, but I hope they have at least have decent heating and. Well, never.

[Jeff Oskay]

Mind. Well, if you want it, you work for.

[Christy Lee]

It. They have to have decent heating and.

[Josh Arnold]

Cooling. I bet these nuns are tougher than I'll ever.

[Christy Lee]

Be. Yeah, have you seen them? They're quite manly.

[Tom Griswold]

Looking. Sister Act, Escape to the Alps. Nuns on the.

[Josh Arnold]

Run. That's a great.

[Tom Griswold]

Movie. Which is. Which is the one with Whoopi.

[Josh Arnold]

Goldberg. That's Sister act and Sister Act 2. Back in the.

[Tom Griswold]

Habit. Okay, well, we'll see what.

[Josh Arnold]

Happens. Also starring the very racist Lauryn.

[Christy Lee]

Hill. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. I don't know if she was.

[Tom Griswold]

Racist then, but I.

[Christy Lee]

See. Oh, this place is a lot more. It's not what I was expecting. It's a lot. It's. It's kind.

[Josh Arnold]

Of. It's almost like a Swiss.

[Christy Lee]

Chalet. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Exactly. You're have to heat.

[Christy Lee]

It. Well, they'll. I'm sure they have a.

[Josh Arnold]

Way. It looks like it has modern.

[Christy Lee]

Amount. It does look like they're as modern. I was thinking of some.

[Josh Arnold]

Same. Same here. Some old monk, you know, monastery looking.

[Christy Lee]

Thing.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Okay, well, what now? What's coming up in the news? Christy.

[Christy Lee]

Lee. Coming up, we have escargot stolen. We have a woman 82 in the news again. This time she was not in a nun. A nun arena. But she was hit by a train and.

[Josh Arnold]

Yikes. If she lived. That's.

[Tom Griswold]

Amazing. Oh, yeah, she's fine, she's.

[Christy Lee]

Fine. Well, she's okay. She'll be okay. What.

[Josh Arnold]

Else? One of those trains at the.

[Jess Hooker]

Mall, 3 miles per.

[Tom Griswold]

Hour. It was actually a full blown freight.

[Christy Lee]

Train. Yeah, if you're a dog owner. Listen up. Do you think your dog's personality mirrors your own? We'll find out about.

[Josh Arnold]

That. Yeah, I think maybe a.

[Pat Godwin]

Little.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. He is always licking himself on the.

[Tom Griswold]

[Christy Lee]

Something. They're allowed to stay, but they have to get rid of their social media accounts and no media.

Okay. Yeah. Why don't we do a little bit of history? What do you.

Broom. Paul.

[Josh Arnold]

Broom. Is there some sort of Escobar.

[Greg Warren]

Branded back in the.

[Jeff Oskay]

Day.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe. Maybe I read it wrong. The point is, the name Paul Broom is not as scary as Pablo Escobar. Sounds like he's going to take your eyeballs and put him in a.

[Christy Lee]

Jar. Broom out of the.

[Pat Godwin]

Hat. Yeah, he did.

[Tom Griswold]

Apparently. Yeah, that's what it means. My translator. Okay, 1951. The greatest bass player. Jocko Pastorius. Anyone I've heard of.

[Christy Lee]

Kids. She.

[Tom Griswold]

Does. Oh, well, let's move on. We have Kristy Lee at the SILAC insurance news desk. What's happening over.

[Christy Lee]

There? Well, according to a new poll, most dog owners feel that their pets mirror their personalities. The Talker research survey of 2,000 dog owners found that eight in 10 think it was genuinely fate that they were matched with their dog. 70% of pet parents describe their dog as their emotional twin. And over 55% go even further to describe their pet as their soul.

[Josh Arnold]

Mate.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Wow. There's a fair amount of projection here, but that's fine.

[Jess Hooker]

Right?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. Pure.

[Christy Lee]

Pet. 75% of respondents feel they share an unspoken understanding with their pet all the time or often. And 80% say their dog instantly soothes their anxiety. I believe.

[Josh Arnold]

That. Oh.

[Jeff Oskay]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. There are certain times I don't feel like my.

[Josh Arnold]

Dog.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Some of the licking locations, you know, some of the butt.

[Jess Hooker]

Scooting. You can't handle that noise. The lick.

[Christy Lee]

Noise?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. No, the slurping of the.

[Jess Hooker]

Testicles. Middle of the.

[Jeff Oskay]

Night. Although, Tom, I will say this Tried the butt scooting. It feels.

[Greg Warren]

Nice.

[Christy Lee]

I. When you leave a stain on my carpet, you're.

[Josh Arnold]

Out. I've had an itch where I considered.

[Pat Godwin]

It. It's a good.

[Tom Griswold]

Move. I would like to see that. It'd be very, very awkward. Awkward to.

[Christy Lee]

Explain. Yeah. Well, in other news, speaking of dogs, a Chicago man held a welcome home party after being reunited with his long lost dog. Mr. Edmund Lighthall told ABC News his poodle mix named Peter. Peter went missing from his family backyard 10 years.

[Tom Griswold]

Ago. Oh, he's obviously been very.

[Christy Lee]

Concerned. Then last month, his father received a message that Peter's microchip has been scanned and he was found at the bottom of Lake.

[Tom Griswold]

Michigan. Of course, in those days, microchips were the size of.

[Christy Lee]

Cameras. Mr. Lighthall said he drove 45 minutes from Chicago to Hammond, Indiana, to pick. Pick Peter up. He, his family and friends recently gathered at a local park to celebrate Peter's.

[Josh Arnold]

Return. Well, wait a sec. But it doesn't.

[Jess Hooker]

Say. Where was.

[Tom Griswold]

He? There's.

[Jeff Oskay]

Some. There's two kids just crying their.

[Josh Arnold]

Eyes. A dog for 10 years. We have to assume another family had it. Yeah, that's. To.

[Christy Lee]

Me. That's all I.

[Josh Arnold]

Got. That's completely selfish. You have to let that dog stay where it.

[Tom Griswold]

Is. Now, if you look at a map, Chicago to Hammond, this dog survived. Gary, Indiana. He's a tough.

[Jeff Oskay]

Beast. Let's be a pit.

[Tom Griswold]

Bull. Good for.

[Jeff Oskay]

Him. It's a pit. A.

[Christy Lee]

Doodle. Oh, can you.

[Josh Arnold]

Imagine? You know, that dog stays where it is. You don't take that dog away from the family of 10.

[Jess Hooker]

Years. There's no way that dog's just been wandering the.

[Josh Arnold]

Streets. No, it's. It was clearly in a home.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah. Or you do bring it home. You're like, hey, I found the dog just in time for it to.

[Tom Griswold]

Die.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. What? Well, that's a terrible.

[Tom Griswold]

Story. Boo. What's coming up this.

[Christy Lee]

Morning? Peter's now estimated to be 14 or 15 years old, and it's unclear what happened to him during the decade he was missing. So maybe he was at a shelter, we don't.

[Josh Arnold]

Know. Nope. This guy stole it from a backyard. That's.

[Tom Griswold]

Terrible. But he must be pretty healthy if they didn't have him scanned. For 14 years.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. For 10 years.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Okay, well, all right, well, let's move forward. What's coming.

[Christy Lee]

Up? Coming up, we have $100,000 worth of snails stolen. We have counterfeit children's toys being confiscated. We never take it to our fish pedicure.

[Tom Griswold]

Story. And I don't even know Fish had.

[Josh Arnold]

Feet, let alone.

[Christy Lee]

Toenails. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Right. That's got to be.

[Christy Lee]

Slimy. And what would you. What links would you go to to pay for your wedding? We have one groom's idea.

[Tom Griswold]

Coming. All right, well, this should be very interesting. We'll certainly look forward to that. Now what. What else? What did I want to mention? Oh, we do have some. I want you to make your Christmas request.

[Christy Lee]

Guests.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. For stuff from the Bob and Tom catalog. I've found a. A cache of them, if you will. We'll be getting to shortly. The thing is I have to decide which ones of these were still allowed to.

[Christy Lee]

Play. Well, why would you have them if we're not allowed to play them? Wouldn't they not put those in your.

[Tom Griswold]

Hands? That's the mistake. That's a mistake that they often make. Yeah. They're like a simple step. Yeah. Just like they just.

[Josh Arnold]

Thanksgiving. Yes, and we hope you did.

[Tom Griswold]

Too. You got your tree up yet.

[Josh Arnold]

Josh? No, not yet. Not yet. I took down all the Thanksgiving stuff and today will be the day that I break out the Christmas decorations and.

[Christy Lee]

Everything. You flip the pillows over. Is there a Christmas.

[Josh Arnold]

Pillow? No, but I have a Christmas pillow that sits in the closet. Until now. Okay, that's actually out. I did put that out because I was in that closet putting away an air mattress and went, oh, I'll grab the Christmas.

[Tom Griswold]

Nice. Air mattress or air mattress. Air filled.

[Christy Lee]

Doll. Oh.

[Josh Arnold]

God. Well, with a little imagination, it becomes an airfield woman. She's large, but Bertha's very.

[Tom Griswold]

Gentle. I see. Now, when you set your trip, do you play Christmas.

[Josh Arnold]

Music? I will have a Hallmark Christmas movie.

[Christy Lee]

On. I watched one. It wasn't officially a Hallmark. Is it a Hallmark movie if it's not on.

[Tom Griswold]

Hallmark? No, but I think on Lifetime it defines. It defines Netflix. I think a Hallmark movie now is Thomas or something is a.

[Christy Lee]

Genre. Yeah, it was that.

[Jess Hooker]

Time.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. I mean, it's. It's.

[Christy Lee]

Exactly. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Now, if you were listening a while back, I mentioned that they hadn't really edited my page of Christmas stuff over here. They've just removed 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 17 of the pieces have just been loved. Yeah. Jason, thank you very much. And that. Or they're taking.

[Christy Lee]

Themselves. They're saving our.

[Tom Griswold]

Jobs. I'm not sure. So we'll be hearing some of the great Bob and Tom Christmas stuff coming up in a matter of moments. But first, we visit Christy.

[Christy Lee]

Lee. Yeah. You know what? Java House is the official office beverages here at the Bob and Tom show. And we would like you to go to javahouse.com. you'll get 25% off of your first order with the promo code. Bob and Tom. Be a nice Christmas.

[Jeff Oskay]

Present. Oh, I had a quick question for Tom. Decorating the tree, do you decorate it with the kids? Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. They participate or use ornaments. Not a.

[Josh Arnold]

Lot. We.

[Jeff Oskay]

Did. I wondered if any other parents do this. So we let the kids decorate the tree. We just sit and watch. We put the fake fire on the TV and we put on some Christmas music. And then the kids get done decorating the tree, and then they leave. And then we spend the next hour while I sit there and watch my grocery different. Redecorate the tree and put them the way they should.

[Josh Arnold]

Be.

[Jeff Oskay]

Oh. Does anyone else do.

[Pat Godwin]

That? Yes.

[Jess Hooker]

Absolutely. But your kids are older.

[Josh Arnold]

Though.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah. Somehow they miss 2 square feet of.

[Josh Arnold]

Tree. Like, why don't you just do it with them at the same.

[Jeff Oskay]

Time? Oh, no. It gives them a feeling of independent. I don't.

[Christy Lee]

Know. Don't they come out and go, hey, I.

[Pat Godwin]

Didn'T.

[Tom Griswold]

Autonomy. You always get a second opinion on the lights. You stand back and you squint, see if there are any spots where they're.

[Josh Arnold]

Not. Yeah.

[Jeff Oskay]

Sure. We got the tree that already has the.

[Christy Lee]

Lights. Yeah, that's.

[Jess Hooker]

Perfect. And you don't wrap.

[Jeff Oskay]

More? No, no. And it has the color changing, so we can make it whatever color you want, depending on the.

[Josh Arnold]

Mood. You can go all white. You can go multi.

[Tom Griswold]

Color. It's my understanding. I don't want to get anybody upset. It's my understanding that. What? That Santa Claus. You tend to get better gifts for the real.

[Josh Arnold]

Tree. That's a total lie. Don't believe any of.

[Christy Lee]

That. Kids, is your Christmas tree more decorative or more children decorative? Do you know what I'm trying to.

[Tom Griswold]

Say? Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

We. We're in charge of the.

[Josh Arnold]

Tree. The adults.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay. It's Crate and Barrel.

[Christy Lee]

Christmas. That's what I was trying to say.

[Tom Griswold]

Nicely. We have.

[Christy Lee]

Standards. Uhhuh. Standards. It's for the.

[Jess Hooker]

Kids. The kids have their own trees in their bed rooms, though.

[Tom Griswold]

Right? Yes.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. So they could decorate.

[Tom Griswold]

Those. Those are fake.

[Jess Hooker]

Though. Oh.

[Christy Lee]

Okay. My tree, even to this day, is still all kids, though. I mean, it's. We still put stuff they made when they were in first grade on.

[Tom Griswold]

It. Yeah, that's all on there, of course, on your.

[Josh Arnold]

Tree. But it's placed where they want.

[Jess Hooker]

It to be placed, right? Yeah. There's a.

[Josh Arnold]

Theme. Tape measure the distance between.

[Jess Hooker]

Ornaments. No, Amy.

[Josh Arnold]

Does. If you make.

[Christy Lee]

Amy. You make Amy decorate your.

[Pat Godwin]

Tree. No, I'm shaking my Head. This time of.

[Tom Griswold]

Year. We did it. Kelly did it. We were there. I was.

[Jess Hooker]

Present. We have our first artificial tree this year. And I have to say, I'm really sad we waited this.

[Pat Godwin]

Long. They're.

[Christy Lee]

Amazing. They.

[Jess Hooker]

Are. It's not dead already. Usually. I mean, we don't have to water.

[Christy Lee]

It. I have one that's got a pedestal. You push the button and it flips up and.

[Tom Griswold]

Then. Yeah, but you're missing the best part. Putting in the roof of your car and. And then getting yelled at because you're not going fast enough. And I'm pointing out. Look, I don't want to hit the brakes and have this tree come flying into the.

[Christy Lee]

Car. I don't have tree. What? Pine needles all over my.

[Jeff Oskay]

House. Well, I could buy a real tree. Or I could, for the same price, buy six artificial.

[Christy Lee]

Trees.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. Not anymore. Some of those artificial trees are a couple thousand.

[Josh Arnold]

Bucks. Oh, well.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe. Where are you shopping.

[Josh Arnold]

At? Yeah, not all of us go to Restoration Hardware for our fake trees. Pottery.

[Tom Griswold]

Bar. Got a nice lunch wire.

[Jeff Oskay]

There. Yeah, you apparently have. Not checking out the Christmas tree aisle at the Dollar.

[Josh Arnold]

General. Can you imagine eating at Restoration.

[Tom Griswold]

Hardware? It's like. It's like a great.

[Josh Arnold]

Restaurant. 22 bucks for one cucumber sandwich or.

[Tom Griswold]

Whatever.

[Josh Arnold]

The. It sounds like a night, but.

[Tom Griswold]

It'S the quality of the people there, John. Okay, now you mentioned the Dollar Store. This is one of my favorite songs. I hate this.

[Josh Arnold]

One. This is the one that. That band shat out on the way.

[Jess Hooker]

Here.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I encourage. I encourage opposing points of.

[Jess Hooker]

View. I love Christmas.

[Tom Griswold]

Spirit. Yeah, I generally encourage it, but. Well, let's just give this a listen and you can.

[Jeff Oskay]

Decide.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. It's only a minute and nine seconds according to. Okay. Did you remember the name of the.

[Christy Lee]

Band? The.

[Tom Griswold]

Fuglies. The Fuglies. It's a great name for the. Here we go. Next year is gonna be good.

[Jess Hooker]

To go next year I'm gonna get.

[Tom Griswold]

My ducks all in row this year I'm a little late there's nothing left here on my plate and I can see it coming It's a dollar store Christmas Here it comes again Another dollar store Christmas Here it comes again Like.

[Tom Griswold]

Bat behind his back and a fanny pack full of bitter pills and other people those best wishes It's a Dollar Store Christmas oh, yeah, yeah Dollar Store Christmas It's 7.$99 Christmas oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Brand new, Just wrote.

[Josh Arnold]

Yesterday. Yeah, yeah, It's great. Some. Some weird metaphor of pills in a fanny pack. Or.

[Greg Warren]

Whatever.

[Josh Arnold]

Pills. Try a little harder. But you can go see the Fuglies nowhere. Because they disbanded 20 years ago.

[Tom Griswold]

Probably. I like the song very.

[Pat Godwin]

Much. We wrote that.

[Josh Arnold]

Yesterday. Honestly, it sounds like, like so many songs I love from the.

[Greg Warren]

90S.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Like it's.

[Pat Godwin]

Definitely. It has promise. They got a bouncy.

[Tom Griswold]

Melody. Maybe they've polished it up. We'll have to call the Fuglies and see. See what's. See what's going on. I'm sure you. We've all been in that situation where at the last minute you've got to grab some gifts and. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. What's your color scheme on your.

[Tom Griswold]

Tree? I don't know. I'll show you a picture of it. It's green.

[Christy Lee]

Largely. Okay. No, I'm just curious to see.

[Josh Arnold]

It. But I like my artificial tree because I. I can also choose between the smaller lights and the big fat old style.

[Christy Lee]

Lights.

[Josh Arnold]

Really?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. That's.

[Josh Arnold]

Nice. Or I can have both lit.

[Christy Lee]

At the same time and it's pre.

[Josh Arnold]

Lit. Yeah, yeah. It's a good one. It's a.

[Christy Lee]

Good. Oh, I like.

[Greg Warren]

That. I.

[Tom Griswold]

[Christy Lee]

I. But can you tell the color scheme.

[Jess Hooker]

There? Beige. It's beige. I guarantee it's.

[Tom Griswold]

Beige. Yeah, I. I had that happen. Maybe it's just the.

[Josh Arnold]

Angle. I put as much effort into that as the Fuglies did. That don't go.

[Christy Lee]

Bad. I'm sure it's a beautiful treat.

[Tom Griswold]

Now. Got this letter here. Dear Bob and Tom show. Sorry to bother you at work. I was wondering if Jeff Oscar noticed if strangers are treating him differently now that he doesn't look like a raving.

[Josh Arnold]

Lunatic. That's a great.

[Jeff Oskay]

Question. Yeah, they're talking to me. I don't.

[Tom Griswold]

Like. Once again. Once again. On last week we did the glow up. You call it a so called glow up. Got your bushy hairdo taken down and yeah, your.

[Josh Arnold]

Beard. There have to be some negatives though now when you walk by a restaurant, there aren't people walking out giving you their doggy.

[Jeff Oskay]

Bags. Yeah, I'm getting a lot less of that. I'm getting a lot more. Hey, mister, can I have a dollar? I never got that with my old.

[Jess Hooker]

Look. How does your girl girlfriend like.

[Jeff Oskay]

It? Yeah, yeah, she likes the hair. She doesn't like the look of my face, so she likes it covered.

[Jess Hooker]

Up. I don't know if you can fix.

[Pat Godwin]

That. Didn't you go to an open mic one time looking like that, and you're asked to stand.

[Jeff Oskay]

Outside. Oh, the. Well, when I. I worked the jukebox the first time I was there, Dan came over and goes, hey, I, I, we. We like to help people, but I can't have you hanging out in my lobby. And I go, what do you mean? He goes, it's just a bad look for the club. And I go, well, I'm on in, like, an hour. He goes, oh, you're one of the comics. I thought a homeless person wandered in, but that's.

[Tom Griswold]

The. That's the. Your girlfriend. That's the look she.

[Josh Arnold]

Likes. Yeah. Vagrant.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Rebel. A vagabond.

[Tom Griswold]

Apparently. I mean, you're not. You're not, like, freakish looking. You're a handsome guy. You look kind of like a Dennis Miller. You got a full head of.

[Jeff Oskay]

Hair. Yeah, no, I've. It's a lot of great compliments. People have been super nice online, which is so.

[Jess Hooker]

Rare. Yeah.

[Jeff Oskay]

Very. I can't believe how well it's.

[Christy Lee]

Going. So are you gonna let it grow out again or just keep it a little shorter or longer, but not as.

[Jeff Oskay]

Long? Starting all over.

[Jess Hooker]

Again.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

What? Every six months you get a.

[Jeff Oskay]

Haircut? I'm like a Chia.

[Christy Lee]

Pet. He said it was a.

[Jess Hooker]

Year. It was a year since your last.

[Jeff Oskay]

One. Yeah, I think it was May.

[Tom Griswold]

Or. We have the before and after.

[Josh Arnold]

Posted. Ace, are you gonna have a holiday beard again this.

[Tom Griswold]

Year? Of.

[Josh Arnold]

Course. Yeah. Yeah, you'll just. For.

[Jess Hooker]

Time. When does that.

[Josh Arnold]

Start? When we go on.

[Jess Hooker]

Break. Oh.

[Jeff Oskay]

Okay. Yeah. The best comment, which I think got hundreds of likes on under the picture before and after. Said it looks like the lawyer, and I'm also the.

[Jess Hooker]

Defendant. Oh, I like.

[Tom Griswold]

That. Yeah, that really did nail it. Yeah, very poetic. Christy Lee is over there at the Silac Insurance news desk. What's.

[Christy Lee]

Happening? U.S. customs agents seized over $775,000 in counterfeit children's toys. Officers at the area Port of Norfolk, Newport News, Virginia, obtained a shipment in September and found it to contain over 12,000 plush toys, 1600 backpacks, 1600 music boxes, 1400 snow globes, and several other counterfeit.

[Tom Griswold]

Items. Partridge and a fair.

[Christy Lee]

Tree. The toys and other items bore protect trademarks, including Despicable Me, Game of Thrones, Labubu, Mickey Mouse, and others. I bet they came from. Want to.

[Josh Arnold]

Guess? China for.

[Tom Griswold]

Sure. Yeah, but I. So do they. They have to destroy them.

[Christy Lee]

Right? I don't know what they do with.

[Jeff Oskay]

Them. Wait, so that new Easy Bake meth oven is not.

[Josh Arnold]

Real? That's a counterfeit the one with the minions on it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. I want. I should have. I wonder what new toys have made the next Toy Story.

[Josh Arnold]

Movie. Well, this. This one is all about the.

[Jeff Oskay]

Ipad.

[Tom Griswold]

Right. The iPad versus the classic toys. But I mean, I wonder that. What's the. What's the new one? The.

[Jess Hooker]

Labubu.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I wonder if that made the cut.

[Jeff Oskay]

Because. Yeah, I feel that's maybe a trend type.

[Tom Griswold]

Thing.

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah. Too.

[Tom Griswold]

Trendy. Yeah. Yeah. I just love those movies. And we talked to Tim Allen a couple weeks ago and he was working on the voice work with. He's. He, of course, does Buzz Lightyear and Tom Hanks does Woody. They're. They're working on the new one, Toy Story 5, so. I can't wait to see it. I love all those movies. What's coming up.

[Christy Lee]

Christy? We have time for this real quick. Over $100,000 worth of escargot stolen from a French snail farmer. Thieves broke into buildings on the farm owned by Le Escargot de Grand Cruise. They stole roughly 990 pounds of snails, both frozen and fresh. Le Escargot de Grand Cru said it will try to replenish in time for Christmas and New Year's Eve. 60% of the business's annual revenue is made just during the holiday.

[Jess Hooker]

Season. Oh, that's a popular.

[Christy Lee]

Day.

[Josh Arnold]

Escargot. They're probably more.

[Jess Hooker]

Popular. Yeah. Have you ever had.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Delicious. I like.

[Christy Lee]

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. The police, they leave a trail. Trail.

[Josh Arnold]

Absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. I.

[Christy Lee]

Can'T. Escargot is just like a lot of butter, garlic. Garlic.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. I tried adding salt, but it just shrunk up on.

[Tom Griswold]

Me. Made you feel sluggish. Yeah, I couldn't.

[Jeff Oskay]

Eat. You've never had.

[Jess Hooker]

It? I've never had.

[Tom Griswold]

It. I will not eat.

[Christy Lee]

It. You don't eat.

[Pat Godwin]

Escargot. So.

[Tom Griswold]

Delicious.

Great. What's the.

[Christy Lee]

Flavor? I mean, butter and.

[Greg Warren]

Garlic. Butter and.

[Jess Hooker]

Garlic. Okay. Yeah, I'm a big fan of both of.

[Josh Arnold]

Those. The snail itself.

[Tom Griswold]

Was. It's like a chewy.

[Greg Warren]

Booger. I don't.

[Tom Griswold]

Know. Is it.

[Josh Arnold]

Earthy? Yeah, something. And I like earthy flavors, but this didn't hit.

[Jeff Oskay]

Me. I chipped one of my back teeth on the shell and it really messed.

[Josh Arnold]

Up. Yeah, that'll.

[Tom Griswold]

Happen. Do you dig them out of the. How does it.

[Josh Arnold]

Work? Sometimes you need the.

[Christy Lee]

Shell. They come in like a. There's a special snail escargot dish where they're already pulled out of.

[Jess Hooker]

This. So is it like, like, like.

[Christy Lee]

Like, like oysters all like.

[Jess Hooker]

Rockefeller?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. You know how they do that?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Is this one of those con jobs like.

[Jess Hooker]

Caviar? No, caviar is.

[Christy Lee]

Delicious. You don't like.

[Pat Godwin]

Caviar? That is.

[Christy Lee]

Delicious. All.

[Josh Arnold]

Right. I've never tried.

[Jeff Oskay]

It. That's.

[Josh Arnold]

That. I do want to.

[Tom Griswold]

Try. It's like eating. It's like eating salt that pops in your.

[Pat Godwin]

Mouth. Eating fish.

[Josh Arnold]

Eggs. You think you'd love.

[Christy Lee]

That. It is fish eggs.

[Pat Godwin]

Right? It's like eating fish.

[Josh Arnold]

Eggs. The.

[Christy Lee]

Joke. I'm on you like a ch. Cheap suit today. You hate.

[Pat Godwin]

It. No, I don't hate it. I like.

[Tom Griswold]

It. No, I want to remind you about Simply Safe. This might be a nice gift for the holidays.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. And.

[Christy Lee]

Okay. There's Christy Lee. It's a Silac insurance company news.

[Jeff Oskay]

Desk. I haven't compared the others. I don't know, Pat Goff, where.

They fall, so to.

[Josh Arnold]

Speak. I know where they fall right between.

[Christy Lee]

Your. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. There's Ace Cosby. I'm Josh Arnold of the I Hate Steven Singer sidekick chair. There's Tom, thank you very much. Whose testes are doing much better than they were three months.

[Christy Lee]

Ago. Oh, that's.

[Jeff Oskay]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yesterday they were acting up. They were chilled. Chilly Walk. Check local listings. We're trying to get some of the Christmas stuff. I was asking Pat Goddamn if he had any gigs coming up because we were talking about Al Jackson and Willie are going to be at the Dayton Funny Bone coming up this week. Also, Greg Warren is going to be in Columbus at the Funny Bone there for a bunch of great shows. But Pat, you said all you have is a private party. Private.

[Pat Godwin]

Party. I'm. I'm currently writing a little Christmas song for my son who's decided to go to school in shorts. So I'd like to do it for you now. Oh, my son is so annoying. His teen years I'm not enjoying. He's wearing shorts. It's 20.

[Tom Griswold]

Degrees. Let him.

[Jeff Oskay]

Free.

[Tom Griswold]

Freeze. Let him.

[Josh Arnold]

Freeze. Very.

[Tom Griswold]

Nice. Nice. That's.

[Jeff Oskay]

Good. I found this out the other day. Were you guys aware That I was always told you lose all your heat out of the top of your head. That's why you got to wear a.

[Christy Lee]

Hat. That's all just made.

[Jeff Oskay]

Up. Yeah, it's. It's like a fake fact that some hat company came up with it to sell more hats.

[Josh Arnold]

What?

[Jeff Oskay]

Yeah. That's not true. Look it.

[Tom Griswold]

Up. No, no, I, I can assure you, you. The hat.

[Greg Warren]

Helps.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. For those of us when it's freezing out there, you put a hat on. Ah, that's much.

[Jess Hooker]

Better. But I think you're right. Your point is? It keeps you just as warm as anything else.

[Jeff Oskay]

Would.

[Jess Hooker]

Right. It's.

[Jeff Oskay]

Not. I was always told you have to have a hat on because you lose all of your heat out of the top of your.

[Tom Griswold]

Head. That's.

[Jeff Oskay]

Fake. That is not true. It loses it everywhere. Every exposed surface loses.

[Tom Griswold]

Heat. Okay, so this is your excuse for not wearing pants outside in the.

[Jeff Oskay]

Winter? That's.

[Tom Griswold]

Right. Okay, your head's.

[Christy Lee]

Covered.

[Tom Griswold]

Right. Okay. Pat, you have a so called private.

[Pat Godwin]

Gig. Yeah, I have a private gig this.

[Tom Griswold]

Friday. We'd like to. I'd like to feature something from a good friend of the show, a fine comedy writer. Not you talking about, talking about just so you just prepare you for your.

[Pat Godwin]

Gig. Oh, these are hard. These can be.

[Greg Warren]

Hard.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Here we go. Right now, we're joined in the studio by comedian Mark.

[I]

Gross. I had to do these corporate gigs and I did one the night before. It was Christmas week, you know. Yeah, we'll get a comedian for Christmas week. It'll be great. Well, you know, and so I get in there and it's the old, you know, the podium mic with the, you know, that thing. And I don't, I have no idea what had gone wrong with this company. It was like a media buyers group, I believe it was in. It was like in Omaha or something. But I go in there and they were just, it was just. You could just tell something was clearly.

[Josh Arnold]

Wrong. Really.

[Tom Griswold]

Wrong. By the way, we're to give the announcement about the downsizing after our next guest. You might have read yesterday in the paper, 39 of the 42 of you will be.

[Josh Arnold]

Losing. Here's comedian Mark.

[I]

Gross. None of you got your Christmas.

[Josh Arnold]

Bonuses. Instead we've given them money to.

[I]

This funny young man here. I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

Something. Something was.

[I]

Wrong. Something was.

[Tom Griswold]

Wrong. I don't know.

[Josh Arnold]

Gross. Sounds like a Jew.

[Tom Griswold]

To. Merry.

[Greg Warren]

Christmas. Get him up.

[I]

Here. I'm telling you, I mean, literally, I'm seven minutes in, nothing and I'm clean. And I'm going, what is Wrong. And I. And people started to shun.

[Tom Griswold]

Me.

[I]

Literally. They were like, they would turn their backs and they're looking down and they wouldn't even face me. And I, and I go, I'm totally serious. They were turning. I could hear their chairs. This is.

[Tom Griswold]

Horrible. You know. And I thought, well, I was.

[I]

Like, I was like, I'm at least doing my time because they'll try and rip me off so I get done with it. And I'm like, thank you, good night. And nobody clutched. Then I had to walk through the audience to get to the lady in the back with the.

[Josh Arnold]

Check. I read to do.

[I]

That. I'm like walking. I can hear my.

[Tom Griswold]

Feet. That's.

[I]

It. And this lady was in the back room with this check in her hand and she said it loud enough so that everyone could hear. To save her own. To save her own bacon or whatever. And she goes, well, I hope you're happy. Which is never good for starters. Then she goes, she goes, I hope you're happy. You've ruined.

[Pat Godwin]

Christmas.

[Josh Arnold]

Hilarious.

[Tom Griswold]

Amazing. Great comedian, really fine.

[Christy Lee]

Writer. Very funny.

[Tom Griswold]

Man. Rough.

[Christy Lee]

Crowd. No pressure there, Pat. Don't ruin.

[Tom Griswold]

Christmas. I like your new song.

[Pat Godwin]

Too. Oh, thank.

[Tom Griswold]

You. That's.

[Christy Lee]

Great. I hope Jimmy heard.

[Tom Griswold]

It. Is he wearing shorts.

[Josh Arnold]

Today?

[Pat Godwin]

Really? He is wearing shorts. That's the text I got while. During the, during the.

[Christy Lee]

Break.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Well, my UPS guy wears shorts. It could be 20 below. He's got the shorts on, so he's in a.

[Christy Lee]

Heated. Well, he does have to get in and out. I don't.

[Pat Godwin]

Know. Jess Hooker was telling me she's been through this with her son Max, who was once 15. She says don't sweat it. It's a flex.

[Jess Hooker]

Right? It is. It's. They're. They're just going to do anything to get a rise out of you. So just eh. Shorts today, Jimmy. Good call. Let me know how that works out. Move.

[Christy Lee]

On. Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. Don't acknowledge.

[Tom Griswold]

It. Well now, speaking of moving, there's a train a, moving toward this old lady. What.

[Christy Lee]

Happened? A New Jersey woman injured after her car was hit by a freight train. The 82 year old told officers she stopped before the train tracks when she saw the flashing train lights on Route 535. However, the woman was actually on the tracks and when the Conrail freight passed, it struck her car and pushed it a quarter mile down the.

[Tom Griswold]

Track. So it didn't pass. It.

[Christy Lee]

Hit. It hit her. The driver suffered a minor leg injury and was taken to an area hospital for treatment. So they must not had gates and she must have gotten out a little too.

[Josh Arnold]

Far. This is why they shouldn't give them.

[Jess Hooker]

Licenses.

[Josh Arnold]

Women. That's.

[Tom Griswold]

Right. I mean, why isn't she flattened like one of those coins at the state fair put in that.

[Josh Arnold]

Machine?

[Christy Lee]

Yes. Because like I said, she probably just had this. The corner of her car and it hit.

[Tom Griswold]

This. It dragged her the whole quarter.

[Christy Lee]

Mile. Well, it's gonna. I mean, I would.

[Josh Arnold]

Think. You ever heard somebody say, hey, don't put a penny on the tracks. Yeah. Don't do that. What. What is the fear.

[Pat Godwin]

There? They'll come off the.

[Josh Arnold]

Rail. I've heard now if a.

[Christy Lee]

Penny.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Can derail a train. Let's work on.

[Christy Lee]

That. Yeah, you're right. We need a better.

[Tom Griswold]

System. Seen the video on.

[Christy Lee]

This?

[Tom Griswold]

No. Yeah. The train's pushing her for cor the whole time. Her blinkers.

[Pat Godwin]

On.

[Tom Griswold]

So. Thank you. Dust off that one every now and then. Little snow.

[Josh Arnold]

Dust. I'm glad she's okay. That's.

[Christy Lee]

All.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. But I mean, I'm terrified. Every time I go a railroad crossing like that. You get just. You're worried the thing's gonna.

[Christy Lee]

Stall. Well, what happens to our depth perception as we get older? What the hell is that horrible.

[Tom Griswold]

Trip. I don't.
