Key Topics & Segments

1. Holiday Vibes and Christmas Song Antics

• The team kicks off with a tongue-in-cheek, slightly risqué “Let’s Put the X Back in Christmas” song (01:36–02:37), setting a jovial, irreverent holiday tone.
• Listener emails and discussions about obscure Christmas music like "Dominic the Donkey" (19:06–21:14), its surprising recent pop culture resurgence (The Bear), and dance recital war stories.

2. What's the Most Purchased Non-Food Item?

• The hosts trade thoughts about everyday essentials, like lint rollers (03:42–04:14) — with Bob revealing his lint roller obsession as a dog owner.
• The conversation leads naturally to pet antics, hair in black shirts, and the consensus that owning pets changes your relationship with cleanliness.

3. Pet & Animal Humor

• Stories about “dog doors” and what animals bring inside — from squirrels and snakes to other dogs and even baby deer (05:08–06:51).
• Classic riff: “You know, that dog in a horror movie, the one who won’t go into the basement? Maybe it’s haunted and the dog’s the only one that can see it.” (07:09–07:18)
• Segues into animal acting, “Academy Awards for dogs,” and red-carpet emergencies: “You know one of those dogs is gonna drop a deuce on the red carpet. Camera seven, please.” (07:39–07:52)

  • Tom: “Have they effectively used them in climates like Minnesota or Michigan or… are they crippled by snowfall?” (11:19–11:34)
  • Christy Lee cites they are testing heated sensors and wipers for winter cities.
• Hilarity about debating with Uber AIs: “I like asking the Uber drivers, ‘Hey, where are you from?’… I’m ready to chat!” (10:48–10:51)
• Urban legends about self-driving cars running over cats — classic BOB & TOM skepticism.

6. Classic TV, Music, and Celebrity Banter

• Bob teases a Dick Van Dyke centennial segment: “Dick Van Dyke turns 100 on Saturday… No, get too cocky, it's still Saturday. Ottoman would destroy him these days.” (13:55–14:05)
• Nostalgia about “The Mandrell Sisters,” faux-shock at “Crackers” by Barbara Mandrell (“You can eat crackers in my bed anytime”) and the risqué undertones: “After you're done eating the crackers, you can eat me. Something like that?” (31:35)
• Extended Dick Van Dyke trivia: from his classic show to “Diagnosis: Murder,” military service, story about his Hollywood Walk of Fame star’s misspelling, and Stan Laurel impressions. (68:51–74:09)

7. Listener Letters & Voicemail Fun

• Ranging from dog behavior after heart surgery (23:09–24:00), childhood manwich fails (“I forgot the hamburger in Manwich!” 43:05–43:13), and parents gifting lottery scratchers as stocking stuffers (111:29–111:41).

• Story: Reindeer named Lars who thinks he’s a dog after being raised alongside pups (83:03–85:31).
  • Christy Lee shares: “I’d say he’s a 50/50 dog reindeer now,” and reveals that Santa’s reindeer are, by antler logic, all female.
• Bear makes an appearance in the Gatlinburg Christmas Parade, unfazed by crowd and lights (“The bear is unfazed…” 87:04–87:11).

9. Bizarre Medical Miracles & Mishaps

• Bob recounts stories about body parts temporarily attached in strange places for medical reasons (penises on arms, an ear stitched to a foot) (92:18–95:44).
  • "There was the one where a guy had his member attached to his arm for blood flow...this is a different body part, just as amazing." (34:25)
• Light-hearted but respectful takes on human resilience with undercurrents of “dark humor.”

10. Self-Deprecating Comedy & Show Dynamics

• Ongoing meta-jokes about communication breakdowns between Tom and Pat (104:03–105:14) and mock group therapy.
• Musical comedy, e.g., Pat Godwin’s “Santa saying Ha Ha Ha instead of Ho Ho Ho” song about Santa eating the wrong cookies (105:29–107:14).

11. Failed to Mention News (Jeff Oskay at 78:58)

• Recap of “forgotten” or missed news stories of the week, including jabs at social media outrage and real-world grievances.
  • “What you failed to mention: did you write DC that over 600,000 Americans go bankrupt from medical debt? No—you went after me for a joke.” (81:25)

12. Rapid-Fire Quips & Recurring Gags

• Recurring riffs on “big holiday jackpots,” must-have stocking stuffers, and fast food oddities (In-N-Out’s retiring of “67” and “69” order numbers).
• Gross-out humor—mushrooms to avoid (“death cap for cuties” joke, 164:35), monkey stories, and mating habits of animals versus humans (“The most monogamous is the California deer mouse… humans have an overall 66% rate.” 150:17–150:44).

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

Everything's looking good today.

[Chick McGee]

Everything's everything. As Dr. John would say, everything's everything. Everything's everything.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's very helpful astute observation. A couple quick things.

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Bob Kevoian]

I just was thinking about something. What do you think? Non food item and not like gas for your car. Have you purchased the most any given over the say the past year? What?

[Chick McGee]

Non food item. Huh.

[Tom Griswold]

And we'll include supplements and food. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Why?

[Tom Griswold]

Toothpaste, Tooth floss.

[Bob Kevoian]

Tooth floss, Clothing Yeah, I was thinking lint rollers.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you go through them?

[Christy Lee]

Well, of course, because.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, I just looked down here and I've got.

[Chick McGee]

You're the oddest.

[Bob Kevoian]

I have three of them down here.

[Christy Lee]

I don't own a lint.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, hang on, wait a minute.

[Bob Kevoian]

I have. Here's two new, and then I got.

[Chick McGee]

Another one over there that I'd criticize if I could. I don't know. I, I, I ended up with two.

[Bob Kevoian]

But this may be, this may be a dog owner thing.

[Christy Lee]

It is a dog owner thing because I have do that, don't shed, and.

[Bob Kevoian]

I wear a lot of black and I have two white dogs. So I was just. We were about to go in the air and I looked down. Jeez, how do I have dog hair in this shirt? I've barely seen my dogs.

[Chick McGee]

How did I know he had white dogs?

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, they're beautiful little pups. We have a great dog story coming up in the news. It's really cool. About dogs and their appreciation of other critters.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, good.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I love seeing the videos online where the dogs come through the dog door and there's like, a dog, A dog, a dog. A baby deer. A dog dog.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, that's kind of what we have coming out. Hilarious.

[Chick McGee]

And then the baby deer comes in and the dogs lay down on their bed. And the baby deer lies down on the dog.

[Bob Kevoian]

Exactly. Coming up, dogs. A dog door is a tricky business I have.

[Chick McGee]

I know. I, I'm relatively new to the dog world. I don't think I'd ever have a dog door. I don't.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, you gotta be.

[Chick McGee]

My golden is kind of skittish about everything, so I don't think she'd use a dog doggy door.

[Bob Kevoian]

For starters, you've had a cat show up at your door with a sure live snake in its mouth. Maybe rethink that dog door thing.

[Chick McGee]

Mike golden came to the back door with a squirrel in her mouth. Had never been happier. Just high wag, wag, wag, wag.

[Bob Kevoian]

Look at this. I had a chipmunk as an appetizer murderer. Dogs aren't that smart. I know people say their dogs are really smart, and one of my dogs is smarter than the other. But every day the same deal. He leaves the laundry room and then goes flying into my office. The floor is wood all the way there. He knows it's wood. He has to apply the brakes as he slams into the wall every time. He hasn't figured out yet he can't stop.

[Chick McGee]

My Australian shepherd has all of a sudden real Tentative around stairs. And I don't have that many stairs at the house, but from the garage into the. In the main area of the compound, there's like, I don't know, 10 stairs. And she used to fly up, and now she stands at the bottom and, like, starts to run and shakes her butt and so. Okay, here we go.

[Bob Kevoian]

And.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, it's not four goldens ago.

[Bob Kevoian]

My dog Belcher would not go downstairs.

[Chick McGee]

Wouldn't go down the stairs, would go up the stairs.

[Bob Kevoian]

There were they. I lived in a ranch, but there was a basement. He would not go down the stairs.

[Christy Lee]

Maybe he just didn't like the basement. Maybe he thought it was.

[Bob Kevoian]

Basement's cool.

[Christy Lee]

I didn't know that he thought it was.

[Bob Kevoian]

He just would stand at the top. Other dogs would go down. The other three would go down, and he'd just stand up there.

[Chick McGee]

Well, you know, that's that horror movie. Good Dog. Maybe there. Maybe there's a haunting in the basement and the dog's the only one that can see it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, that's perfectly possible.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And that dog. And Good dog, by the way.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, good boy.

[Chick McGee]

Good boy. Yeah. Best Actor Oscar. There's no.

[Tom Griswold]

There really should be some special.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Iteration.

[Tom Griswold]

Given to him.

[Chick McGee]

Absolutely.

[Bob Kevoian]

But there is a animal. The equivalent of the Animal Academy Awards.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, really?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. They do have a. They do have an award show.

[Chick McGee]

And when you say the name of it, I'll go. That's it.

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't know if they broadcast that one, but I'd rather watch that one than the. You know, you mentioned the red carpet for that. You know. You know, one of the dogs is going to drop a deuce on the red carpet. Camera seven, please go. Go to the left.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that dog's taking. He's sweeping this year.

[Chick McGee]

Yep. Absolutely.

[Bob Kevoian]

Now, coming up in the show today, we have some exciting things in the world of news, a lot of things going on in the world of sports, NFL. Let's see, what is it? Week 15 began last evening, and I.

[Chick McGee]

Had it right up till I didn't have it. Tampa Bay -4. They were ahead by 14 with not that much time left. But Kirk Cousins and the Falcons come back and win. 29, 28. A walk off field goal, 29, 28. Falcons in Tampa. Everybody was saying, tampa Bay, they've got the receivers back. Oh, Baker's gonna have a field day. Mike Evans is back. Okay, shut up. Wow. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, well.

[Chick McGee]

And Bijan Robinson ran wild and. Yes, Tom. Bijan Robinson, running back from Texas now with the Falcons, has his own mustard.

[Tom Griswold]

Is On Dijon Bijan.

[Chick McGee]

Dijon mustard.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, that's great.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, he does.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's great.

[Chick McGee]

And it's evidently pretty good.

[Bob Kevoian]

What were the commercials? Oh, gosh.

[Tom Griswold]

Were they guys Poupon?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, the guy had the Rolls Royce.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah. They roll down the window.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Excuse me, do you have any gray Poupon?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes, it's a great commercial.

[Chick McGee]

What about the one, the Lincoln?

[Tom Griswold]

Fine product.

[Chick McGee]

The Lincoln Town Car. Sounded down.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, that was. That. That was the circumcision.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. The moil in the back seat.

[Tom Griswold]

The ride.

[Chick McGee]

The ride of the Lincoln.

[Bob Kevoian]

That was based on a. A jeweler or whatever. What do you call the technicians that do jewelry that cut the. Whatever it was. The guy was cutting a diamond in the back of the car because the dried was so smooth. And they did one on Saturday Night Live, I guess, where they were going down a country road, hitting potholes, doing a circ. Doing a circumcision. Actually, it's funny you'd mentioned that. We do have a circumcision related story coming up in the news. It involves a circumcision gone wrong.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no.

[Bob Kevoian]

With a happy ending, I might add. By the way, there's a. Everything was. Was. Was finally resolved. We'll get to that.

[Chick McGee]

There is a happy ending.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, to a degree.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, oh.

[Bob Kevoian]

I mean, there. Certain aspects of it were resolved also. We teased this one never got to it yesterday, but something that happened in one of those Waymo self driving taxis. Absolutely fascinating story coming up and now, Christy, did you ever get in one? I know that.

[Christy Lee]

No, I was too afraid. My girlfriend did. She said it was awesome, but I. I wouldn't.

[Chick McGee]

It's the wildest thing you've ever seen.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You're driving down and here comes a Waymo. And there's a thing on the top like.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Like these spinning around things that. Yeah. So they know where they are.

[Chick McGee]

And there's nobody in the car.

[Christy Lee]

Nope.

[Chick McGee]

It's unbelievable.

[Tom Griswold]

I think our Oscar did it right. Didn't he actually get in it?

[Chick McGee]

You would absolutely, Tom. Freak out if you saw a Waymo.

[Christy Lee]

Well, you would freak out because you have no control at all.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, I'd freak out because I'm ready to chat with.

[Christy Lee]

Well, there's that.

[Bob Kevoian]

I like asking the Uber drivers. Hey, where are you from? Welcome to the United States. Appreciate it. Thanks for the hard work.

[Tom Griswold]

I've been here.

[Christy Lee]

If you ask some of the folks in Los Angeles. I did a little bit of it, sir.

[Chick McGee]

I was born here.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I've lived here all my place.

[Bob Kevoian]

From here for the distant land of Michigan.

[Christy Lee]

Unofficial survey. They. They are not real big fans. They cause a lot of traffic problems sometimes.

[Bob Kevoian]

So now I.

[Chick McGee]

Well, this is the hyperbole that started by driver cars as opposed to driving. They're anti.

[Bob Kevoian]

Have they effectively used them in a climate such as say Minnesota or Michigan or.

[Chick McGee]

Tom thinks he's got the angle on this way is going to be crippled by snowfall. Well, I would think somebody in the Waymo process. I thought of that.

[Bob Kevoian]

My question was have they. Because you hear, oh yeah, they've got them in whatever California, Phoenix, San Francisco, places that don't have a lot of snow, if ever.

[Christy Lee]

Austin. Don't they have them in Austin?

[Chick McGee]

They're up there in their neck in Austin.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Having recently two hours ago driven through the snow. There are some tricky things that happen signs get.

[Chick McGee]

See this is the fascinating part about you though. These people have come up with a driverless car on any kind of terrain. Whatever it is, I don't care.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm asking do they have the.

[Chick McGee]

But you don't think one of the guys said hey, what if it snows? But you think you're going to remind them and they're all going to go, thank God Tom alerted us.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, that's not what I said. I said have they tried them in a place with snow?

[Chick McGee]

It's a question that's. You're insinuating that geniuses who came up.

[Christy Lee]

With the driverless school, Waymo is actually developing its self driving technology for snow using hardware like heated sensors and wipers.

[Chick McGee]

They never said they were AI to.

[Christy Lee]

Filter out snow noise, allowing it to handle light snow and ice. So there you go.

[Bob Kevoian]

Now I believe I've been vindicated again.

[Christy Lee]

Talking about it specifically targeting severe winter conditions in cities like Denver and Seattle.

[Chick McGee]

But those are so ding dong's right? It's. Yeah. Snowfall is so unpredictable. How could you have a driverless car? Right, but I mean traffic's unpredictable. How do they have a driverless car?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, everything about it is. How does that work to be considered unpredictable?

[Bob Kevoian]

I know there was a big thing. I. Forgive me for bringing this up, but there was a big thing in San Francisco where a bunch of pedestrians saw a cat get run over by.

[Christy Lee]

A way that's not true.

[Bob Kevoian]

Do you want to give a thousand dollars? I'd like to have it.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know why you always go to betting money.

[Bob Kevoian]

Because I'm right.

[Tom Griswold]

But.

[Chick McGee]

Well, I know you're always right.

[Bob Kevoian]

It was. No, it's a thing. It's not a matter of you being not smart. It's a matter of you being ignorant.

[Chick McGee]

Many. How many times have the Waymo hit a. Hit a cat?

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't have all the stats. I'm just saying there was. There was a.

[Chick McGee]

So you're saying more than once.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, there was just a story in one of those side oddball things that I read for news and it was about that.

[Chick McGee]

You know, Weekly World News is very good. You should pick it up. Bad boy cat found at bottom of gas pedal in Waymo.

[Bob Kevoian]

We do have more information than you'd ever want to know about Dick Van Dyke coming up.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, There's a big anniversary. What?

[Chick McGee]

What did you just say?

[Christy Lee]

Three pages worth. Check.

[Bob Kevoian]

Dick Van Dyke turns 100 on Saturday.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, don't get too cocky. It's still Saturday. Ottoman would destroy him these days.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, I was thinking, there goes the hip.

[Chick McGee]

Dad's dead.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Dick Van Dyke breaks femur tripping over ottoman.

[Chick McGee]

Well, Dick Van Dyke show very popular in the ratings. I. I have a feeling it wasn't Great show.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, you don't think it was popular?

[Chick McGee]

I don't think so.

[Bob Kevoian]

I love Van Dyke Show. Mary Tyler Moore was gorgeous.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I get what you're saying. There are a lot of shows that are really popular that did not do well in the ratings. And Arrested Development, right? Yeah, absolutely.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, come on. And. Oh, then.

[Chick McGee]

And just because you like it doesn't mean you're. You're so far ahead of everyone. That's the problem. See, in the future, it's hard.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's hard to define why one has superior taste.

[Chick McGee]

There we go. There we go.

[Bob Kevoian]

Right, Josh?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm writing a thesis on it. Why my taste is so much better.

[Chick McGee]

I would have given anything you looked at him. And don't drag me into this.

[Bob Kevoian]

Coming up, we have a little celebration of the great Dick Van Dyke. Get some interesting facts about him.

[Chick McGee]

How about Dyke Van Dyck? Anything on that?

[Tom Griswold]

Hilarious.

[Bob Kevoian]

There has to be a porn star named Dyke Van Dick. There just has to be.

[Chick McGee]

Don't know about this. Like a shemale, Is that what you're saying?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, of course. We have great white sharks in the news, Josh.

[Chick McGee]

Biggest female you've ever seen. Go ahead.

[Christy Lee]

You go first.

[Bob Kevoian]

We have great white sharks in the news, by the way. Attention. Carolinas, huh? Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

29, 28 Falcons over Tampa Bay and Tampa.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, I'm sure Kostakia Khanna Mopoulos is is. Well, he probably missed the game because he was playing poker last night, famously.

[Christy Lee]

That's right.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know.

[Bob Kevoian]

So we'll find out what's going on with him, et cetera, et cetera. Let's not he's and we have a really interesting story involving the 67 phenomena coming up from the O'Reilly Auto Part Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show. Hey, folks, let me ask you a serious question.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you know that driving high is.

[Bob Kevoian]

Considered driving under the influence? That's right. Driving under the influence of marijuana is against the law in every state.

[Tom Griswold]

That means even in states where marijuana.

[Bob Kevoian]

Is legal, that means driving high could get you a dui. And if you Think law enforcement officers can't tell when you're driving high? Well, my friend, you're wrong.

[Tom Griswold]

If you're high, they can tell.

[Bob Kevoian]

Your friends can tell.

[Chick McGee]

Your co workers can tell.

[Bob Kevoian]

Even your parents can tell.

[Tom Griswold]

Everyone can tell.

[Bob Kevoian]

So what makes you think that law enforcement officers don't know when you're driving high? You'd be wrong.

[Tom Griswold]

They can tell, too. Driving under the influence of marijuana can.

[Bob Kevoian]

Slow your response time and change how you perceive time and speed. So even if you think you're fine to drive when you're high, you're not.

[Tom Griswold]

Because the bottom line is if you.

[Bob Kevoian]

Feel different, you drive different. And driving high is driving under the influence. So remember, drive high, get a DUI paid for by nhtsa.

[Chick McGee]

[Christy Lee]

Good to be here.

[Chick McGee]

There's Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Bob Kevoian]

Jake's.

[Chick McGee]

He's at the I Hate Steven Singer sidekick chair. There's Ace Cosby.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, Chick.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

And I'm Chick McGee at the Prize Pick sports desk. Hello, Tom.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, you have. We have kind of just discovered something that a lot of people knew about. Of course. I'm talking about the Christmas song, Dominic the Donkey.

[Chick McGee]

Actually, I have an email from our listeners on that topic.

[Bob Kevoian]

I do, too. What? What does yours say?

[Chick McGee]

Dear Bob and Tom show. I was watching one of, I believe Josh's favorite shows on Hulu the Bear. That's a joke. Excuse me? Season two, yesterday, the Christmas dinner episode. And swear to God, Dominic the Donkey playing in the background. Tom.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

Whoa.

[Chick McGee]

Never hear that song till yesterday. Now I heard it twice in the same day. Mamma Mia. Yeah. By the way, that episode is like Chick, Josh and Christy Lee meltdowns combined.

[Christy Lee]

Have you seen that episode?

[Tom Griswold]

That show is his meltdowns.

[Christy Lee]

It's Jamie.

[Chick McGee]

Jamie Lee Curtis. And the dinner is. That's. That's a pretty good episode.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

For those of us who had to go through that.

[Christy Lee]

Exactly.

[Chick McGee]

It was a little. A little bit haunting.

[Christy Lee]

Too close to home.

[Chick McGee]

Watching that, watching that episode. What is your letter say?

[Bob Kevoian]

Dear Bob and Tom show, longtime listener, first time writer. My daughter was a member of a competitive dance team. This was always one of their big dance numbers for the Christmas shows. Dominic the Donkey.

[Tom Griswold]

It's Dominic.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, man, I like that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. And we're trying to find out if. If he also. If Monty. Whatever his name is.

[Chick McGee]

Lou Monte.

[Bob Kevoian]

Monty. If he does the. He. Haw hee haw.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, there's an overlap track. He may have added it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, I'm saying, did he go back or is that. Did they bring in a session guy?

[Chick McGee]

He might have been at the vanguard of recording technology. You don't know.

[Bob Kevoian]

We've made some pretty dumb phone calls with a lot of the recordings we've done. You know, getting a first class violin player to play on Blow Me a Kiss is a little bit. In any event, being selected to portray Dominic in the dance number was a big honor.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Bob Kevoian]

The troop would go around to several schools every year to put on a Christmas show. I was the mobile dj.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Carting around and playing the sound system. Dominic the donkey was always a big hit with the kids. I would have to do it sometimes six times a day as we made our rounds. By the way, my daughter did get the part of Dominic one year. Thank you very much. That's Dave in Decatur.

[Christy Lee]

That'd be hard to dance in a donkey suit.

[Bob Kevoian]

Dave in Decatur, Michigan. And there is apparently a picture of his daughter that he. It's not on my email. I don't know where it went. It may have been lost on the shuffle. Dave, thank you very much for taking the time and trouble to do that. Oh, I want to say a special high closed circuit to Molly Nolte. She's getting some heart surgery today.

[Chick McGee]

Any relation to Nick Nolte?

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't know, but. Molly, hey, listen, a bunch of us here have been through that. You're gonna be fine.

[Chick McGee]

Piece of cake.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's a light at the end of the tunnel, my dear, and I don't.

[Chick McGee]

Know if I'd use that.

[Christy Lee]

Don't say that.

[Tom Griswold]

I know you're trying to hit the tunnel.

[Chick McGee]

Best wishes, but I'm saying it's. There's a light at the end of the tunnel. Follow it now, go toward the light.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay. You know something? I.

[Chick McGee]

You are absolutely bass ackwards, you know that? You beat everything.

[Bob Kevoian]

I was just trying to be nice to mama.

[Chick McGee]

Well, you failed, Grandma. Well, I'd like to tell you with your death defying surgery, there is light at the end of the tunnel.

[Bob Kevoian]

Audrey, I. Audrey, I'd like to apologize for these jackasses for ruining me.

[Christy Lee]

I thought her name was Molly.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, that's. No, Audrey's her daughter. A quick plug here.

[Chick McGee]

You need. You know what you need? I don't know how we're going to do this live. But there's got to be some way with technology. Now you have closed caption. What you mean as you're talking?

[Bob Kevoian]

I would really like that idea.

[Chick McGee]

Right, Right underneath. Off to the side so I can see it. What Tom's trying to say is there.

[Bob Kevoian]

Could be a voice here. I'll do it again, and you can be the voice.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, I don't know. I don't want to do that. I want to see the print so I can look. Go ahead.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, I got a special salute here to Molly Nolte. She's having some pretty serious surgery.

[Chick McGee]

Well, this isn't going to be good. Stand by. Here he goes.

[Bob Kevoian]

Having been through open heart surgery myself, as has Chick Magee.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you.

[Bob Kevoian]

I just want to tell you, there's a. It's.

[Chick McGee]

There's a little bit of don't edit. Now say what you said.

[Bob Kevoian]

Maybe I can. I can make it more fun. This way you're going to get a button, probably that has morphine attached to it. Man, hit that thing like it's a.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, but it doesn't.

[Bob Kevoian]

Like it's a snare drum.

[Chick McGee]

You guys know that, right?

[Bob Kevoian]

What?

[Chick McGee]

There's always.

[Christy Lee]

There's a.

[Chick McGee]

There's a government.

[Bob Kevoian]

It works. Yeah, when you hit the button.

[Chick McGee]

No, but you can only hit it so many times. And then it goes.

[Christy Lee]

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

[Chick McGee]

We've got a guy here.

[Tom Griswold]

I remember visiting Pat in the hospital. He was hitting it like he was on Jeopardy.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

He was. Hit it with both hands.

[Bob Kevoian]

No pain for 200, Alex. Yeah. Okay, so we've. Now we're back. We're okay now.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, darling.

[Bob Kevoian]

I want to salute all the great nurses and physicians out there and everybody helping Molly.

[Christy Lee]

And everybody, too. I wish. Reese.

[Bob Kevoian]

Reese is having surgery.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, she's having her shoulder replaced Friday.

[Tom Griswold]

Surgery is not a good idea.

[Bob Kevoian]

You know what?

[Tom Griswold]

Trying to rush out.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It's Monday.

[Bob Kevoian]

Tuesday.

[Chick McGee]

I had a doctor's appointment with my cardiologist yesterday. The wonderful, the fabulous, the beautiful Dr. Ali. Good morning, sir.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

I. I was with a physician's assistant, but I don't want to. I don't want to brag, but I have Dr. Ali's number. I texted him and I said, hey, dude, I'm in the building, Room nine. Stop by. And here he comes.

[Bob Kevoian]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

It would have been much funnier. I'm on a golf course in Sarasota. Yeah, Good luck.

[Chick McGee]

Not that he. He's a workaholic.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, well, good. We. We. We salute all those folks. Yeah. Now, let's see where was I? Oh, I want to do a couple of quick plugs. I mentioned Kostaki. He's got to be in a good mood because his Falcons won last night. He's going to be in a place called Jasper, Indiana, at the Astra Theater tonight and tomorrow at Muhammad, Illinois Yellow and Company. So that's some exciting news. While I'm at it, our friend Brett Terhune, who was here yesterday, is going to be at the Funny Stop Comedy Club in Akron, Ohio this weekend. And he'll be at Planet of the Tapes in Louisville coming up December 26th. Meanwhile, tomorrow night, the old theater in Lowell, Michigan, will be Haywood Banks with a great little Christmas song or two. So get outside and do some fun stuff. Go out this weekend. Now, do you have another letter over there or is it my turn?

[Chick McGee]

Just.

[Tom Griswold]

Meanwhile, Christy, Pat and I sit here with our thumbs up our ass.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, you have letters?

[Chick McGee]

We all have letters.

[Christy Lee]

I don't have a letter.

[Chick McGee]

Wait a minute. Hold it. Let's stop. Pat has a letter.

[Tom Griswold]

I have two.

[Chick McGee]

Go.

[Tom Griswold]

There'd be surprise, too.

[Chick McGee]

Go ahead. Oh, here's Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, this is for Pat. Oh, no wonder I got it about his son wearing shorts in the winter. My son is 37 and still wears shorts in the winter. And I still call him a moron. Thanks, Alan.

[Bob Kevoian]

Alan. I love that letter. That's great. Okay, Josh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to leave you out of the cycle here.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it's just, you know, oftentimes you leave me out and then you yell at me for not talking. It's a weird place to be that has.

[Bob Kevoian]

No. I plan on yelling at you for talking.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know. I don't know what's more uncomfortable, having that happen to you or being over here and getting a perfect witness. It's really odd. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Best thing is being totally ignored.

[Tom Griswold]

I. I am not.

[Chick McGee]

Did you hear something? Did you guys hear something?

[Bob Kevoian]

No. No.

[Chick McGee]

Me either.

[Bob Kevoian]

I have a tinnitus and I have some hearing loss, so I can't hear high pitched voicemail.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that selective tinnitus.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That would guys suffer from that?

[Bob Kevoian]

I fear that might be a great premise for a movie. A guy who just simply cannot physically hear women speak.

[Christy Lee]

Well, what women want wasn't.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Mel Gibson. Yeah, he could hear too much here.

[Christy Lee]

Everything a woman was thinking.

[Tom Griswold]

That was a fun movie. That's a horror movie. This is a song I'm not aware of. We were talking about Cheez Its and Brian says it reminds him of Barbara Mandrell. Song. Crackers.

[Christy Lee]

Familiar with that either?

[Chick McGee]

I'm not familiar with. I am familiar with the Mandrell sisters. Amazing tele show. They had a variety.

[Bob Kevoian]

What are their names?

[Chick McGee]

Barbara, Louise and Earlene, I believe, are the Mandrell sisters.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think I am.

[Chick McGee]

Erlene was the hottest, in my opinion.

[Tom Griswold]

You weren't a Mandrell sister.

[Bob Kevoian]

I.

[Chick McGee]

You're a Mandrell Denier.

[Bob Kevoian]

I know. I. I just don't know. I don't watch that show.

[Tom Griswold]

Was it on often?

[Chick McGee]

It was on NBC. Yeah. Every damn week. They shoved it down here.

[Bob Kevoian]

What. What year was this?

[Chick McGee]

80S. Yeah, maybe. Maybe 80s or something.

[Bob Kevoian]

What's the song called? Cracker.

[Tom Griswold]

Crackers.

[Bob Kevoian]

Crackers. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Not familiar.

[Tom Griswold]

It was like a novelty song. I have no idea.

[Chick McGee]

It's hard to tell with Barbara. She was doing all kinds of.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, if you say, can someone dig up.

[Tom Griswold]

Were they essentially a country act?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, I think so.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. And I think they had a live act where they. They played all kinds of instruments at the same. Kind of like Wayne Newton, but three.

[Bob Kevoian]

Different girls, you know, very attractive ladies.

[Tom Griswold]

They were right.

[Christy Lee]

The Mandrels is pretty cute.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, borderline.

[Tom Griswold]

My grandparents saw them in Branson or something.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah. There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. My grandpa had a picture and I've. Boy, the smile on his face.

[Chick McGee]

Is that him?

[Tom Griswold]

Surrounding by the Mandrell system, An old Navy man gets to meet the Mandrell girls.

[Chick McGee]

Crackers, huh? All right.

[Bob Kevoian]

While we search, I got this. Oh, I heard Chick talking about how when he comes in, Tom is always listening to something musically. Okay. He goes. I too, love the Grateful Dead and the Allman Brothers. Like Tom, I started listening to the Ray Bryant Trio because Tom said he was.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's Kitty cat on a keyboard. Ray Bryant.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, it's great. Piano players.

[Tom Griswold]

Beautiful jazz drum set down the stairs. Another hit.

[Chick McGee]

That's exactly right.

[Tom Griswold]

Broken violin.

[Bob Kevoian]

He goes. This is from Gary. He goes up. I love the music from Ray Brown. Well, thank you. He goes. P.S. josh, hi. Love to have you visit us on Lake Murray in South Carolina for a, quote, bass fishing extravaganza.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I'd love that. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Lake Murray's where my cousins live. That's a beautiful place.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. I've only seen footage of Lake Murray.

[Bob Kevoian]

I have a question now, Christie, for example, next fall is taking a trip to Italy, and she's taking listeners with her. It's kind of. If you want to go. You did one to England last year or, I'm sorry, just a few months ago. Is there a service that takes, like, does bass trip?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Bass fishing trips.

[Tom Griswold]

Pretty much every lake has guides. Yeah, fishing guides.

[Bob Kevoian]

I mean, should we do a similar thing with Josh?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no.

[Bob Kevoian]

Go on a bass fishing trip with your.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Chick McGee]

You remember a long time ago when you said, should we have a chick going to a Redskins game? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

[Bob Kevoian]

Then there was that time I did. I did the pub crawl with Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

We were there for a week and a half.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, did it? No, no. Just asking.

[Chick McGee]

I did a pub crawl one on New Year's Eve in a limo. No, thanks. Ladies and gentlemen, the amazing Barbara Mandrell and Crackers.

[Tom Griswold]

It's exactly what I thought it was gonna be.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, you can.

[Christy Lee]

I played this in country music. I remember it now.

[Chick McGee]

Man, this stinks on ice.

[Tom Griswold]

A worse.

[Christy Lee]

You can eat crackers in my bed anytime.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know what I.

[Christy Lee]

Is.

[Chick McGee]

It's a vocal. Is it the yacht rock keyboard?

[Tom Griswold]

It's so bad.

[Bob Kevoian]

And the writing. Yeah, it does have that Michael McDonald funky rhythm keyboard thing, which it's.

[Chick McGee]

It's Mike's. Let him do it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. No one can do it better than Michael McDonald. And. Is this the one of. A lot of country songs are based on some phrase and. Or a lot of wordplay. Is this one of those story songs where the ending of it is, after you're done eating the crackers, you can eat me? Something like that.

[Tom Griswold]

I doubt that. She went that back.

[Bob Kevoian]

Just. I'm just saying.

[Chick McGee]

I'm curious.

[Tom Griswold]

You can just say your way. All the way off the air.

[Chick McGee]

So did you. Did you honestly think that was okay?

[Bob Kevoian]

Saying that's the. Isn't that the logical course that would take?

[Tom Griswold]

I think it's just.

[Chick McGee]

I don't think. I think you can eat crackers in my bed anytime. Is it a little risque for Barbara?

[Tom Griswold]

Exactly.

[Chick McGee]

It's already pushed.

[Tom Griswold]

They're religious, too, like my grandparents. Hearing I could. I bet they. You know, they were grown people. They probably winked and nudged.

[Chick McGee]

It's darling.

[Bob Kevoian]

I see. Sorry.

[Chick McGee]

And you can eat me. How about this?

[Tom Griswold]

Munch, munch away.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay. All right. Admittedly, I prefer the. For the. For the sort of happy holidays, everybody slaying approach.

[Tom Griswold]

And of course, there's even the dirtier sequel. Go two inches lower, please. It's my birthday. Don't make me have to ask you twice.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, Okay. I should. I shouldn't have cracked open the door. I blame myself.

[Chick McGee]

Kicked it open.

[Bob Kevoian]

Who wrote that letter? Who's editing these things?

[Tom Griswold]

Boy, what a song.

[Chick McGee]

Indeed.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, well, I hope you got yourself one More time.

[Christy Lee]

You can eat crackers in my face.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I like that wiggle at the end. I stuff them in my panties now eat those crackers.

[Chick McGee]

Stuffing my panties right now.

[Bob Kevoian]

They should. That.

[Chick McGee]

That.

[Bob Kevoian]

That keyboard. They should just pay Michael McDonald a royalty.

[Tom Griswold]

Right? Right. God, what if we found out it was him, but he just never talks about it?

[Chick McGee]

Hey, that's real funny, guys. That's. That's me.

[Bob Kevoian]

Is that you?

[Tom Griswold]

Is that. You know, I made $2,500 that day.

[Christy Lee]

That song was released in 1980.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's. That's the. That's the sweet spot. Yeah. 79 was.

[Tom Griswold]

And it's right in the Juice Newton. Oh, yeah, I bet you did play that. That man. Oh, man.

[Christy Lee]

I did.

[Tom Griswold]

Yikes.

[Christy Lee]

I did.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, you can reach us with your letters, Bob and tomobandtom.com. we would love to hear from you. Coming up, we have a great dog story in the news for you dog fans out there. Also, a Santa update and a Santa upgrade and an amazing story. We were talking about surgery and the great surgeons out there. I don't know if you remember the story. A long time ago, we had about a. A person having a certain body part attached to a different area to get blood flow going.

[Christy Lee]

Sure.

[Bob Kevoian]

We got another one of those.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay.

[Christy Lee]

The guy's peed.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well. Well, there was the one where the guy. I remember this one.

[Christy Lee]

No, no, that was on his forearm.

[Chick McGee]

Christy. It's a new world. We could say stuff like that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Now, just go ahead.

[Chick McGee]

That.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, there was the penis.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

The man's male member was attached to his arm for a period of time for blood flow. It's a long. But we'll get to that. This is a different body part, but just as amazing in the world of micro surgery, et cetera, et cetera. Right now, the Bob and Tom show, sponsored by BetterHelp.

Hello, Tom.

[Bob Kevoian]

Something unusual has happened. There's. We. We tend to cover topics that may be incredibly boring and weird and others don't.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Earlier this week, you had a serious splinter. I believe you were moving firewood.

[Chick McGee]

I was, yeah. Making a fire at the compound. And it felt like it went in to my thumb and all the way to my elbows is what it felt like.

[Bob Kevoian]

And you guys often are critical of me because I play with my wooden stirring sticks all the time and I buy these high end stirring sticks.

[Chick McGee]

High end, of course. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Nothing but the best for our time.

[Chick McGee]

George Will has the same.

[Bob Kevoian]

So yesterday. Oh, I was playing with my stirring sticks and kind of going up and down like that, and I got a splinter in my index finger.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, yeah. You stroke wood, you're gonna.

[Bob Kevoian]

And I'm wondering if I should write these people.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. The answer is yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

And. But then today, just now, I took a stirring stick and I was giving an inspection. I don't know if you can see, Josh, but clearly, if I had this, I'd get stabbed. Right there. Right there. Look at that.

[Tom Griswold]

Usually gonna get snagged right there. Oh, a letter is strongly worded. Letter is necessary.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, you know, these are the good ones.

[Chick McGee]

Your reviews on Amazon. I don't know if you know this or not. I have become legendary. People email copy shots of those and it comes in.

[Bob Kevoian]

These are great wooden. I've. I. I don't know. I must have a bad batch. The compostable wooden stirrers.

[Tom Griswold]

See, I wouldn't go compostable.

[Chick McGee]

How many forests have been cleared?

[Christy Lee]

Plastic.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

You wouldn't get a splinter with plastic.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. How.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, but that. Oh, this is. You're like the decorator that replaced the quality oak table with the one we go again with a veneer.

[Chick McGee]

You have to tell us what happened, the real story behind this.

[Bob Kevoian]

At my old house, there was this decor decorator lady came in and there was this beautiful desk, and next thing you know, it was replaced by a piece of crap.

[Chick McGee]

Who. Whose idea was the decorator lady?

[Bob Kevoian]

Who? It was some other person that wasn't. I don't know what. Not me. The Point is, I just need to help you. A lot of these decorators, they wouldn't know good furniture if it was dropped on their head. And, you know, but you have to. The wooden stirring sticks, they make your coffee taste better.

[Tom Griswold]

You think so?

[Bob Kevoian]

And, yeah, I put a little Splenda in this baby. This is tea right now. Thank you, Java House. And I'm stirring it with a stick. And then you take the stick and you. And you lick it. And the wooden ones, they have a sponge like quality, give you a little extra sweetness.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, Interesting.

[Chick McGee]

So you're sucking on wood over there.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, he is.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, that's right. I think it gets me high.

[Chick McGee]

Is that right?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. I'm huffing these now. Maybe. Send us your splinter stories.

[Tom Griswold]

I mentioned Manwich the other day. All right, here's. I feel as though I may need to clarify.

[Chick McGee]

You mean bait and switch?

[Tom Griswold]

Man, there are a lot of great.

[Chick McGee]

According to the can, the meat's already in there.

[Tom Griswold]

That's not at all true.

[Chick McGee]

That's what the picture looks like now.

[Tom Griswold]

You are correct. You are correct. You do see a finished sloppy joe on the can.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

So you want to open that can and have a sloppy joe pop out.

[Chick McGee]

Exactly.

[Bob Kevoian]

I had. I had no idea. I've never eaten Manwich.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

But I assumed also that it had.

[Chick McGee]

The meat in it.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, it doesn't. And honestly, you don't want the meat in there. Yeah. That way you can use turkey if you want. You can use whatever fat percentage, ground beef, anything.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, 80, 20. You have to.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, you got to go 80, 20.

[Christy Lee]

In fact.

[Chick McGee]

No, there was no flavor.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm sorry. Where are you going now?

[Tom Griswold]

So I think there are some great homemade sloppy joes out there. Of course. But Manwich is one of those products where if you don't have the time or you're not really interested in the hassle of making your own. It's good. It's really good. Like, that's the job.

[Bob Kevoian]

But you still have to cook the beef.

[Tom Griswold]

Exactly. Well, Kylie writes, and she Sundays, I was 14 every day when I'd get home from school, I'd do my homework, watch a little tv. And I think this is really sweet. I would make dinner for my parents so that it would be ready when they got home from work. I was making Manwich one time sloppy Joes. I had the Manwich there in the saucepan, heating up. I put rolls on the table. I made French fries to go along with it, which is perfect. That's just so great. And when it was time to Sit down for dinner. The parents were there. I brought the bowl of Manwich over to the table, the french fries and the rolls. And about a minute later my dad said, where's the hamburger? I had forgotten to add hamburger to the man.

[Bob Kevoian]

I can see why.

[Chick McGee]

And there's the problem with defensible.

[Tom Griswold]

So they ended up ordering pizza and saving the man. Which for another night.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

It's not defensible. And even Kylie knew as a child at 14 there is no hamburger. She just forgot.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, right. Though. But industrious kid.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Are you saying I have the mental capacity of a 14 year old?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm saying you're shooting high.

[Bob Kevoian]

You're shooting high. Well, I know you certainly have.

[Chick McGee]

I don't think of anything right now.

[Bob Kevoian]

Higher mental capacity. Not the maturity. No, that's a different scale.

[Chick McGee]

Don't even start. Dear Bob at Top Show Chick, my hero. Oh, thanks very much. Mentioned that he would never have a dog door. Only because my 12 year old, golden. She is so timid. She's just a love lump. But she. Yeah, what the hell's that?

[Bob Kevoian]

They're gonna bring in dead squirrels and people bring.

[Chick McGee]

People deliver boxes. She's like, what the hell's going on out there? And then I bring the box in. Oh my God. Up to the bed. Hiding. She doesn't like boxes.

[Tom Griswold]

You think there's a dog out there that gets their head outside, thinks it's totally outside but its ass is inside and takes a dump.

[Bob Kevoian]

Although you need to train one for a movie.

[Tom Griswold]

Right. That would be a very good sight gag. He thinks he's outside. What are we doing?

[Bob Kevoian]

It's like when a dog sticks their head out the window of a car. They think they're flying.

[Chick McGee]

I'll tell you this. I have. I still have an Australian Shepherd. She's like 4 and she was dumping on the deck. And I sat her down, I said, look, you can't keep dumping on the deck. You got a big yard out there. Go out and use the yard. Next day. Absolutely. Stop. She starts going in the yard.

[Tom Griswold]

Just a little conversation.

[Chick McGee]

I just.

[Christy Lee]

How the hell did she know?

[Chick McGee]

I don't think it had anything to do with anything. But she was. Had just run the cycle and doing.

[Tom Griswold]

It on the amazing.

[Chick McGee]

But it's hilarious to think that she.

[Tom Griswold]

Knew what I was saying.

[Christy Lee]

They do it on the deck when the snow is on the deck. They don't do it on the deck if the snow is on the deck.

[Bob Kevoian]

Remember that story about one of my sons doing it on the deck. Okay, we'll Pick up this letter when we come Back to the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

[Chick McGee]

The IH Stephen Singer Sidekick chair. There's Ace Cosby. Hello, I'm Chick mcgee at the Prize Fix sports desk. Hello, Tom.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hello, Chick McGee. Oh, where were you? Were about to read a letter. I believe you can reach us Bob and Tom. Bob and Tom.com love to hear from you. What's the. What's the topic?

[Chick McGee]

Dear Bob and Tom Show. Chick mentioned he'd never have a dog door. Yes, not with my current puppy Edge. My oldest, golden, is very timid and would not. I would not participate in the dog door. I'm almost certain several years ago. This letter continues. Michael said he had a friend and his wife woke up to their dog bringing in breakfast through the kitchen doggy door.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, man.

[Chick McGee]

And placed it at their feet. She was so proud of the muskrat. And there it is.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, that's a big muskrat.

[Bob Kevoian]

It Looks like a large dead rat.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, it's massive. It is.

[Chick McGee]

It weighs 20, 30 pounds at least.

[Bob Kevoian]

What was the dog's name?

[Chick McGee]

Did not give the name.

[Tom Griswold]

But look at how sweet that dog is.

[Bob Kevoian]

He's a good boy. It's a hunting dog. It's a beauty.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, he is a beauty.

[Bob Kevoian]

Handsome.

[Chick McGee]

Gorgeous.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's Again. Again. That's exactly why I don't have a dog door.

[Chick McGee]

That's from Michael in Montana. I can't remember the last Montana letter we had. Thank you, Michael.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, that's. That's very, very nice.

[Tom Griswold]

That was a. Did you. All right.

[Bob Kevoian]

Thank you, Pat.

[Tom Griswold]

I enjoyed the joke. I enjoyed you. You cannot teach the comedy. That chick McGee. Oh, no, no. That take.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I can. I can take up a storm.

[Bob Kevoian]

That was very nice. A lot of visual things going on there. The way you leaned into it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, right.

[Bob Kevoian]

You know, kind of. Kind of going like visually going. Get it?

[Tom Griswold]

He sensed McGee wouldn't be on board, so he leaned really towards you.

[Chick McGee]

I couldn't disappoint him. Right, Right, Benny, then he got nothing on me.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, okay, let's. Before we get to sports, I wanted to do this. Did I don't know if they gave you this one or if Christie has it. I was doing. I did a deep dive on a different story and I ran into this story about a so called kung fu monk.

[Christy Lee]

No, I haven't seen this.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, this is good. Do you have this one? It's about the guy pulling a 19 ton bus using his male member. Oh my.

[Chick McGee]

I have that. And why are we talking about it now?

[Tom Griswold]

That's some kung fu junk.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

According to you. It's sports.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, well, go ahead.

[Chick McGee]

A video film to China shows a so called kung fu monk pulling a 19 ton bus using only his penis. Footage of the unnamed martial artist shows him dragging a bus using a rope attached to what appears to be his genitals which are concealed under. Beneath a long white tunic. So it could be around his waist. Yes or no?

[Bob Kevoian]

He's a monk. He's a man of religious.

[Chick McGee]

You think that he's above.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, he's not gonna cheat.

[Chick McGee]

Charlatan behavior. The pants less monk walks backwards with visible concentration.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'll bet.

[Tom Griswold]

Please don't rip off. Please don't rip off.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, he's hearing. Listening for that daring flesh sound that we're all so familiar with.

[Chick McGee]

The only province I'm aware of in China. Guangdong, of course. I don't know if there are any other provinces in China.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, if he pulls too hard, he's going to be in dong gone.

[Chick McGee]

It was right there.

[Bob Kevoian]

Now what's interesting to me is, I mean he has no pants on and he's. He's backing up pulling a bus with his male member. This is probably one of the only times it's permissible to expose yourself to a school bus.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I see why we did this.

[Tom Griswold]

Just a reminder to everybody out there who's thinking about trying this school bus do it on a Saturday.

[Chick McGee]

I. I think he needs at least three people to. For him to show it. Show them that it's hooked to his penis.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Somebody must have wrapped around his face. The Guinness people have to have some.

[Tom Griswold]

Judges, a trio of witnesses. You're right.

[Bob Kevoian]

We have all witnessed or not. Most of us were here for the Jim Rose sideshow circus years ago. And a man they call a lifto would attach various objects to his male member and lift them concrete blocks.

[Chick McGee]

I remember a cement block.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

And the finale, Josh. And I'm not kidding. We have many witnesses. He had this traditional block of like a cinder block. Yes, cinder block. I guess it is technically. And he would spin it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's. That's where I would have probably, I don't know the twist at least gotten light headed.

[Chick McGee]

And Jim Rose with that typical barker. And when he would twist it. No one's will be seated during the twisting. A beautiful, beautiful liftoff.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's great.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you guys. You must have been cringing the whole time.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh yes. We had urologists calling and going don't, God, don't do this.

[Chick McGee]

But thankfully he did it in the cafeteria here in the back where the.

[Tom Griswold]

Refrigerator and the food was.

[Christy Lee]

He's not wrong.

[Bob Kevoian]

And then there was Enygma, the guy that had puzzle pieces.

[Chick McGee]

He must be all caught up now. He was on his way to have his entire body tattooed.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Yeah. And he could take a tennis racket, take the strings out and, and fit himself through it.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

He almost looks emaciated it.

[Bob Kevoian]

But it's quite a show now. So we, that's. That's how we. We lead off sports with a so called kung fu. I didn't know there was such things. A kung fu monk.

[Tom Griswold]

I, I think they do practice a lot of those.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

That's David Carradine. Kung fu.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

So that's kind of a religious order. Not just a.

[Chick McGee]

Well, it's both.

[Bob Kevoian]

A karate chop thing.

[Chick McGee]

It's both. It's a discipline. It's a lifestyle.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. What would you like me to breed now?

[Bob Kevoian]

Last evening's NFL score.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you. Tom asked and answered. There you go. This is the new Bob and Tom show and I'm just paving the way for you. Get used to it. The Atlanta Falcons rally from 14 down 29, 28 winners. Last night the Falcons beat the Buccaneers in Tampa. Kirk Cousins threw three touchdown passes to Kyle Pitts and Zane Gonzalez a 43 yard, 43 yard walk off field goal. Time expired third and 28 on the Falcons final drive. Kirk Cousins completed passes of 14 to.

[Tom Griswold]

Pitts and he's ASU's grandchild.

[Chick McGee]

Yep. And 20 yards on 4th and 14. Yeah, it was some And Todd Bowles really upset with his team just went off after the. Oh I came at the news conference and he's pretty. He's mild mannered but he cursing up a storm and saying players got to care and that you don't hear that in the NFL so we'll see what happens there. Fernando Mendoza was named Associated Press's player of the year yesterday after leading unbeaten top ranked Indiana the first Big Ten Big Ten championship since 1967. Did you say Fernando Mendoza?

[Tom Griswold]

We were never supposed to be in this position but by the glory of God, the great coaches, great teammates and.

[Chick McGee]

We have around us we were able.

[Tom Griswold]

To pull this off. Whoever thought the Hoosier be here but now the Hoosier are flipping champs.

[Bob Kevoian]

Let's go.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. Precursor to the Heisman. Now that's usually a good indicator. He's the front runner to for the Heisman tomorrow night. French tennis player Quentin Folio has been suspended for 20 years and find $70,000 for fixing tennis matches.

[Bob Kevoian]

20 years.

[Tom Griswold]

So he's done.

[Bob Kevoian]

So.

[Chick McGee]

The International Tennis Integrity Agency.

[Christy Lee]

Boy that sounds the ITIA interesting and.

[Chick McGee]

Said its investigation found that the 26 year old was quote a central figure in a network of players operating on behalf of match fixing syndicate.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

His suspension will end in May 2044 subject to repayment of outstanding fines.

[Tom Griswold]

The caldera in Wyoming will have gone off well before then. So he's. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

All of our underground missile bases will.

[Bob Kevoian]

This is going to happen more and more in various sports with all the betting going on but in this case justice has been served.

[Chick McGee]

Is that your.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh yeah, sure has.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, it's just. It's Listen, it's. He did it. It's his fault.

[Tom Griswold]

A couple of them.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, there you go.

[Chick McGee]

Anemia. That's what that is.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, I love those. A third.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, there you go.

[Tom Griswold]

But he didn't even get.

[Chick McGee]

It just gets worse and worse.

[Bob Kevoian]

This is the. This is not the worst thing that will happen at Christmas Time involving matches. Someone will burn their house down.

[Tom Griswold]

He is right. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Now someone will burn their house down. Chuckle, chuckle.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, when, since he's been charged with this, did that happen in a tennis court?

[Bob Kevoian]

Ah, I love that joke.

[Tom Griswold]

I already said it.

[Chick McGee]

He already said sorry.

[Tom Griswold]

We all looked and I, I was.

[Bob Kevoian]

Researching this guy's name. What is it again? I'm sorry. It's like Folio. Folio.

[Chick McGee]

Quentin Folio. That sounds like a watch, doesn't it?

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, for Christmas, I got the new Quentin Folio. It's got a.

[Tom Griswold]

Instead of hands. The Quentin Tarantino folio instead of hands. It has feet.

[Chick McGee]

Quentin likes the foot.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

Likes a.

[Bob Kevoian]

Nice. So he's likes to chew on a foot.

[Chick McGee]

Don't you talk to me about this 20 year suspension. You got the story right in front.

[Bob Kevoian]

The guy's 26 years old, right? So he'll be able to make a Philip Rivers, like, comeback in 2044. Whatever.

[Chick McGee]

Did you see that Took kind of a negative turn for Philip Rivers yesterday. A lot of the former players who are members of the broadcasting community started coming forward saying this is a sign of disrespect. And who do you think you are getting off the couch after 5 years being 44 years old?

[Tom Griswold]

Think you're going to come in here.

[Chick McGee]

And quarterback an NFL team?

[Tom Griswold]

They can't be serious.

[Chick McGee]

I'm, they're absolutely, they're absolutely serious.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow. The rubber will hit the road.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, it's true. Certainly will.

[Bob Kevoian]

We'll see what happens.

[Chick McGee]

We'll see what happens.

[Tom Griswold]

That's exactly right. He can't be in good shape, can he, Chick?

[Chick McGee]

I don't know. I, I, I, I just did a story. Let's review. I did a story about a kung fu guy pulling a truck. What was it? A bus with his penis?

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

A French tennis player fixing matches. Like that's a story that needs mention.

[Bob Kevoian]

They're trying to make tennis less boring.

[Chick McGee]

No, no. You, you want me to give my opinion on something in the NFL? No, thanks you, Pat. I appreciate your effort. Talk to Tom.

[Christy Lee]

See what you've done.

[Tom Griswold]

You see what that tennis story did?

[Christy Lee]

See what you've done?

[Tom Griswold]

Caused quite a racket.

[Bob Kevoian]

Ah.

[Chick McGee]

Is there any other reaction you can have other than sounding like you got your penis in a car door?

[Tom Griswold]

That was disturbing.

[Chick McGee]

Can we get that actually?

[Bob Kevoian]

Advantage, Josh.

[Chick McGee]

Well, now, that's not even.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's a tennis term.

[Chick McGee]

I know. It's A.D. yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, I wonder if this guy could join the pickleball major league. Pickleball. I know. It's a different sport. But it's close.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh. Oh, yeah. He could be. It's like he would come in with kind of a negative thing. This would be kind of a Disney movie.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, he's kind of bitter because he.

[Bob Kevoian]

Scumbag becomes a good.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I like this. He's kind of bitter because he feels like he's been demoted. A lesser sport, but he's getting beaten like in the first few matches. No. What the hell?

[Christy Lee]

I really need to turn his mic off. He's gone.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'll keep that. Keep it in that position. I'm enjoying this.

[Tom Griswold]

And by the way, you did it wrong. You're supposed to turn your headphones off, then you won't hear us.

[Chick McGee]

Son of a gun.

I learned something new about my cat. I'll tell you in a little bit.

[Chick McGee]

All right, we'll have that coming up. Here's Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee at the prize pick sports desk. And I'm sorry, what's that? Tom? There he is. Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

There we go. What is. Does that mean?

[Tom Griswold]

Was that his response to my tennis.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You're laughing.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, here's a really interesting pun.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, I liked it very much. Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

Out of context, it does sound like an injury.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, that's what I said.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, you did.

[Bob Kevoian]

Great story. Nice. Nice joke.

[Tom Griswold]

My cat, Gravy likes clam chowder.

[Chick McGee]

No kidding.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I found that out yesterday.

[Chick McGee]

What is it with cats and fish and seafood in general?

[Tom Griswold]

You know, that is. You're exactly right.

[Bob Kevoian]

And yet they don't like swimming.

[Chick McGee]

I. I've heard in the wild that tigers lie. They do swim.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I mean, they're experts.

[Christy Lee]

Absolutely.

[Chick McGee]

They backflip, breaststroke, the whole thing.

[Tom Griswold]

Gravy doesn't mind water too much. She. If I. There are some mornings she's just meowing at me when I'm in the shower. I mean, and it's. There's nothing I can do.

[Chick McGee]

And what is she.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll be right out.

[Bob Kevoian]

Do you have A glass door on.

[Tom Griswold]

It or is it a curtain? Yeah, so she can kind of see my shadow in there and I can see hers out there sitting there.

[Chick McGee]

Do you ever push it up against the glass shower? Who's boss?

[Bob Kevoian]

Like I pressed ham.

[Tom Griswold]

And then she claws at the glass.

[Bob Kevoian]

Put your buttocks against the window and I'll know.

[Tom Griswold]

But I'll turn the shower off, open that door to get my towel. And she comes right in and she does this thing where she tries to scrape the water off the wall. So it's just.

[Chick McGee]

Well, she's just stupid.

[Tom Griswold]

It is something that like a brain damaged animal would do.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

She's cleaning for you.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

So you do the white.

[Tom Griswold]

I drip all over and she doesn't care.

[Chick McGee]

I do the white trash. Cold plunge a hot shower and then get out in the bathroom, walk around in the cold air. Oh, it's so great.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Oh yeah.

[Christy Lee]

No towel.

[Tom Griswold]

You air dry completely.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

They say that's really supposed to walk.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah. I go. I go to the big window in the front of the house.

[Tom Griswold]

No wonder your skin looks so great. Oh, what a beautiful.

[Bob Kevoian]

Good morning.

[Chick McGee]

Good morning, my neighbors.

[Bob Kevoian]

Time it to the school bus is going by. Give the kids a show.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that's taken an awful turn.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think you started.

[Tom Griswold]

Stay true to your school, young lad.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't hear. Students don't say that anymore, do they?

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Be true to your school like you would to your girl.

[Tom Griswold]

Be true to your school. Did you.

[Chick McGee]

The Beach Boys weren't geniuses.

[Bob Kevoian]

Good song. Are we still in the middle of our sports broadcast?

[Chick McGee]

No, no, no, we're.

[Christy Lee]

Now you've ruined that.

[Chick McGee]

Going to. Let's take a moment though and reflect this holiday season.

[Tom Griswold]

It's growing on me.

[Christy Lee]

Barbara Mandrel was one of those girls that was just the sweetest little personality.

[Tom Griswold]

Does that seem like it?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, man.

[Chick McGee]

That's still alive, right?

[Christy Lee]

76. Yeah, she's still alive.

[Chick McGee]

All the Mandrell sisters are alive.

[Christy Lee]

I did not look that up.

[Tom Griswold]

We must have lost one of them. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Odds are.

[Tom Griswold]

She'S 76, I believe.

[Chick McGee]

Out of three sibs. I think you're gonna have one.

[Bob Kevoian]

Why don't we check before we execute, if you will.

[Chick McGee]

Some sort of incident in the liquor store.

[Tom Griswold]

So she was like in her 30s during that 80 that. That variety show. They had.

[Christy Lee]

Something.

[Tom Griswold]

I. I think I know why. Ratings were a little high.

[Christy Lee]

80 to 82.

[Tom Griswold]

Honey, I'll be down in the den.

[Chick McGee]

Can you. Can you run down some of the guests that were on the Mandrell oh, please don't entertain.

[Tom Griswold]

James Coco was on week three.

[Chick McGee]

I think Mac Davis was on there a lot.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah?

[Chick McGee]

Who else? Do you ever watch the Mandrell Sisters?

[Bob Kevoian]

I know, that's why I'm saying.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that's what I'm talking about.

[Bob Kevoian]

You see, that's why I'm a big Mac Davis fan. Christy found something I can see with the look.

[Chick McGee]

Baby, don't get hooked on Louise and I.

[Christy Lee]

And I. Is it Erlene?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Louise, Barbara.

[Christy Lee]

They continued their music careers, but apparently we didn't hear much from them as single artists, did we? Solos.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, well, early move on to anything. I'm so bored.

[Chick McGee]

Early went through an acid phase.

[Bob Kevoian]

I doubt it. Let's. What else is going on over there? I believe I'm taking away the computer if you have to continue to do this. Well, what's up, Tom?

[Chick McGee]

What's the problem? These.

[Christy Lee]

Early. All these sisters are still alive.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, good, good.

[Bob Kevoian]

Thank God.

[Christy Lee]

A woman in San Francisco. You're on your computer all day. What are you yelling at me for?

[Tom Griswold]

You've got a lot of nerves.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm screwing up things that are interesting. I gave you the history of Dick Van Dyke, though.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, my God. Can we get rid of this?

[Christy Lee]

3 pages of this is.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's very exciting.

[Chick McGee]

You've taken a wonderful man that I really enjoyed. And I am leaning toward disliking him because of you.

[Bob Kevoian]

He turns 100 tomorrow. Come on.

[Christy Lee]

So what?

[Chick McGee]

He's been around a long time. It's possible.

[Christy Lee]

10 things you might not know about Dick Van Dyke as he turns one.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hold it.

[Chick McGee]

I'm right back in, baby. All right, number 10.

[Christy Lee]

Number. Now I got to go to page three.

[Tom Griswold]

Page three? Why would you put him in that order? Look at how long they are. Look.

[Chick McGee]

What are you, dumb?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, this is.

[Chick McGee]

This is the rest of the morning.

[Tom Griswold]

Exactly.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

This is our Friday.

[Christy Lee]

We have 10 things, Chick.

[Bob Kevoian]

And you don't have to read them all.

[Tom Griswold]

What do you mean you don't have.

[Chick McGee]

To read them all?

[Bob Kevoian]

Because I wanted to do our two favorite Dicky Vs. We could do Dick Vital and Dick Van Dyke. Spend the rest of the day doing it. What do you think?

[Christy Lee]

Okay, whatever.

[Chick McGee]

Number two.

[Christy Lee]

Did you know that he was going to retire from show business in 1972?

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Why would we know that?

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

He's a hundred?

[Chick McGee]

Did you know he Got Gas on May 30, 1984?

[Christy Lee]

He did technically leave, but by 1971 he was starring in the new Dick Van Dyke Show. How'd that go after convincing CBS to build a soundstage five minutes from his home in Arizona. Did not go well.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

Sorry.

[Christy Lee]

Did you know his name was misspelled on the Hollywood Walk of Fame?

[Chick McGee]

I did not.

[Bob Kevoian]

Is it D I K E?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. The star featured his name without a space. So it was D I, C K V A N, D Y, K E.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's a three word name. Sure. You got your dick. You got your van.

[Christy Lee]

You got your dyke.

[Bob Kevoian]

Sounds like a John Fox joke. You got your dick, you got your.

[Chick McGee]

Van, you got your wall. That's all.

[Bob Kevoian]

You got your arch.

[Tom Griswold]

You got your walls.

[Christy Lee]

Mr. Van Dyke found a whole new generation of fans thanks to cable TV. He remained a familiar face on television in the 90s thanks to diagnosis Murder.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that was big.

[Chick McGee]

You know, one of the things I remember we talked to Dick Van Dyke on the phone one day and I'm sure he was in here. You guys had coffee. I don't remember that part. But I do remember he was on the phone with us and I mentioned to him my favorite episode of the Dick Van Dyke Show. And when the. The boy was. What was his name? Robbie?

[Bob Kevoian]

Or was it Richie?

[Chick McGee]

Richie.

[Bob Kevoian]

Richie.

[Chick McGee]

But his middle name's Edward. And they. The plot of that episode was that none of the relatives could to decide on a middle name. So they took. It was an anagram for all like an E name, a D name, a W E, D, W, a R D. And Dick was. I can't believe you guys remember that. And I said I just saw it last night on Nick at Night. What are you talking about?

[Christy Lee]

Nick Van Dyke Show. The thanks to reruns on Nick at Night. You're right here. The channel even made him an on air chairman of the network at one point.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's fun.

[Christy Lee]

Yep. He claims he was asked about playing James Bond.

[Bob Kevoian]

Boy, that wouldn't have worked.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean maybe if they went a comedic route like they did with that one Casino Royale version. That's true.

[Christy Lee]

He said he was approached about the role in the late 1960s.

[Chick McGee]

I had no idea. This is going to be a heckle. Dick Van Dyke.

[Christy Lee]

By producer Cubby Broccoli, whom he recently had worked for in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

[Tom Griswold]

Ah, yes.

[Chick McGee]

And actually Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Not the original title of that movie.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, no.

[Chick McGee]

It was really never.

[Tom Griswold]

It was blitzy, Blitzy Hump Hump.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's the porno version. Crappy crappy Hump.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I think. Didn't Ian Fleming also. Yeah, Bang Bang.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh. Even as a kid.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh man. We Loved it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Really.

[Christy Lee]

And of course he and Bednams of Broomstick.

[Chick McGee]

I had Shitty Bang Bang book. It was a fold out book and my mom hit me in the head with it. I never will forget it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Always a good story.

[Tom Griswold]

All your memories.

[Chick McGee]

You're welcome.

[Christy Lee]

Dick Van Dyke. Things you may or not know about him.

[Tom Griswold]

Betty Hill shows up in Shitty Shitty Bang Bang Christie.

[Chick McGee]

He does not.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, he does.

[Bob Kevoian]

Who does?

[Christy Lee]

Judy Bang Bang.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah. So I doubly loved it.

[Christy Lee]

As a child he was aware that his Mary Poppins accent was atrocious.

[Tom Griswold]

But it was fun.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And hasn't he admitted that he was totally.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Intoxicated during issues.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Say the least. Mr. Van Dyke got advice from comic greats. He said in a 2004 interview he used to call him Stan Laurel as well as Buster Keaton to ask for advice.

[Tom Griswold]

He did a pretty mean Stan Laurel impression.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, he sure did.

[Christy Lee]

Mr. Keaton once said, you should have been in silence. You were born 20 years too late.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, he arguably one of the, if not the greatest physical comedian.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

One of.

[Christy Lee]

He got married on a radio show.

[Chick McGee]

There we go.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Did he lose the contest?

[Tom Griswold]

Cooter and Queef.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, Cooter and Queef. Scooter and Queef. We're standing on the shoulders of giants. Although our feet smell like fish. Scooter and Queef. Josh. Not having her own show over here.

[Christy Lee]

Mr. Van Dyke and his then girlfriend, Margie Willett decided to get married, but without money for a honeymoon. The two agreed to have the ceremony broadcast on the radio program Bride and Groom.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, not too long.

[Christy Lee]

In exchange for a vacation, he said, we got a honeymoon in Mount Hood, Oregon and some free appliances. They would later divorce in 1984 and Mr. Van Dyke would marry makeup artist Arlene Silver in 2012. Mr. Van Dyke's first show big gig was wordless. He apparently teamed up with his boyfriend. Boyfriend?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that's a fact. We did not know.

[Christy Lee]

Boyhood friend, entertainer Phil Erickson. And together they booked appearances on the Merry Mutes.

[Chick McGee]

The Mary.

[Bob Kevoian]

Can you imagine? I would absolutely book them for this show. I would have them come in. Now you have Chick lose his mind as he has to describe what they're doing on the radio.

[Christy Lee]

Well, this duo performed and lit lip sync to operas and music.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that sounds fun.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, briefly.

[Tom Griswold]

Man.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Dick Van Dyke's son, Barry Van Dyke is also an old man. 74.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, did you guys ever see the Dick Van Dyke movie Fitz Willy?

[Chick McGee]

No, I am aware of.

[Tom Griswold]

It's really good.

[Chick McGee]

Dick Van Dyke Does a great movie with Mickey Rooney. I forget who the girl is in it. Michelle Lee, I think, or something. It's called the Comics. Carl Reiner directed it. It's pretty good.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I'll check that out.

[Chick McGee]

It's pretty darn good.

[Bob Kevoian]

And he was in the more recent Mary Poppins.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

He shows up again.

[Christy Lee]

He served during World War II. He joined the Air Force in 1942 with the hope of becoming a pilot.

[Tom Griswold]

However, he kept tripping over his footlocker.

[Christy Lee]

His aptitude for performing got him routed to Special Services at Majors Army Airfield in Sherman, Texas.

[Tom Griswold]

He was also known as the Cold blooded Kraut Killer. He killed sniper over 300 and was even accused of war crimes.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, well, I didn't know that.

[Bob Kevoian]

I appreciate the joke.

[Christy Lee]

We'll withdraw that for helping produce plays and sketches as well as hosting a military radio station.

[Chick McGee]

And they put that into the Dick Van Dyke Show. I remember him being in the military universe. Uniform or something.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, they did it. Special Forces.

[Christy Lee]

And of course, Dick Van Dyke didn't know his own birthday. Mr. Van Dyke was born December 13, 1925. But in 2011, in his memoir, My Lucky Life in and out of Show Business, he wrote that he grew up thinking his birthday fell in March. He only learned of his real birthday when he was about to turn 18, only to find that he was already a legal adult.

[Tom Griswold]

Weird.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

How does that happen?

[Christy Lee]

Well, he discovered he'd been conceived out of wedlock Chick. Rather than risk stigmatizing their son, his parents.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, thank you, bona fide. Best you learn a little bit about Mr. Event. Happy birthday to the great Dick Van Dyke Now. And one of the things I loved about that show was Carl Reiner would. The wig would come and go, the.

[Tom Griswold]

Toupee, would they ever mention it? Oh, they used to have it on. Like wig heads.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Desk there was a great character.

[Chick McGee]

Remember one episode Laura Petrie accidentally talked to, I think, a newspaper about Alan Brady's wearing a toupee. And it caused quite the problem.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, man.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, she was adorable, right?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, yeah, it's a great show. Now, we are currently enjoying some delightful beverages here in the studios that they happen to be from Java House, the official beverage source for the Bob and Tom show. It's not just coffee. I'm currently having some tea and we each have kind of our own thing. What is Java House all about? It's about getting rid of all the hardware and just simplifying the coffee room where you work.

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

She's at the Silac Insurance news desk.

[Tom Griswold]

There's Pat Godwin.

[Chick McGee]

Hello, Josh Arnold.

[Tom Griswold]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

He's over there at the sidekick chair. There's Ace Cosby. Hello, I'm Chick McGee. Hello, Tom. Hello, Chick. What's going on over there?

[Bob Kevoian]

You've got your picks posted the NFL for week 15 on Instagram.

[Chick McGee]

The Chick McGee. Go ahead. I had last. I. I had last nights until I didn't. Tampa bay up by 14 and Atlanta comes back and wins 29. 28.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, well.

[Chick McGee]

Unbelievable.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, now we are talking with Christy Lee. She's at the Silac Insurance news desk. We have some Christmasy stories.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, actually, looks like we have a guest on the.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, we do? Yeah. Oh, there we go.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, everybody, it's Chevasque. I'm here at the failed mention news desk. It's Friday. You know what that means. It's time for failed to mention news.

[Chick McGee]

Here's Jeff Oskay with failed to mention news.

[Tom Griswold]

Am I going bald?

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

We give you a lot of the news each week. We don't give you all the news. So I'm here to give you the news that we failed to mention. They now have soda scented wrapping paper. Well, you failed to mention. Sure beats the scotch and soda scented wrapping paper from my youth. Scotch and soda? My parents were drinking. The man who voiced Frosty the Snowman, we learned, has three families. Or he had three families. What you failed to mention sounds more like Frosty the Hoe man.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, Handy with the lady.

[Tom Griswold]

A man who crashed a BMW while doing over 120 miles per hour told the police that he teleported into the vehicle and it was not his fault. Well, you failed to mention. Apparently the genie from the lamp he rubbed misunderstood the man's request. Oh, he didn't want to be a huge prick. Speaking of huge pricks. And finally, speaking of huge pricks, first of all, I upset a lot of you earlier this week when I. Well, earlier this week we had a story about an 88 year old man who still has to work and was gifted $1.77 million from a streamer. And I said something to the effect of, screw that guy. He should have made better life choices. Then people wrote in saying they were done with the show. I'm never listening to your show again. Said one person. What you failed to mention. Really? That was the final straw. Me. Me saying some 88 year old dude doesn't deserve 1 million? That those funds could have helped more people instead of one old dude. People wrote the show. And me, I Don't think you understand, Jeff. He lost his pension when D GM declared bankruptcy and his wife died of cancer and he owes thousands and thousands of dollars in medical bills. You're a horrible person for saying anything bad about this gift to this man. And did you write Rich Wagoner, who was the head of GM when they declared bankruptcy and let him know what a big jerk face he is that he mismanaged funds and ruined pensions of hundreds of thousands of people? Did you write the insurance company who didn't cover most of the cost of his wife's cancer treatment let them know what pos's they are for putting this fantastic, wonderful human being and crippling debt, forcing them to go back to work at the age of 88 when he should be enjoying his retirement just so he can pay the bills. Did you write the hospital and the doctors and say you're never seeking medical treatment again because they charged this man and his wife hundreds of thousands of dollars to treat her cancer? Did you write your congressman, let him know what BS it is that Social Security doesn't pay jack for the amount we put into it? Did you write Washington say how unfair it is that over 600,000 people a year in the US have to file for bankruptcy due to medical debt?

[Bob Kevoian]

Huh?

[Tom Griswold]

Did you. Did you write DC and let them know what crap it is that lobbyists control the medical, the insurance industry and ruins people's lives all over the country? Did you, did you message them? No, of course not. You go after some jackass me who was just trying to be funny. I wasn't. But you're not listening to us anymore, so all of this is a mute point. I'm Jeff Oskay and y' all can kiss my arse.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, thank you very much.

[Bob Kevoian]

Now we have Christy Lee at the Silac Insurance News. Do you have a like a Happy Christmasy story?

[Christy Lee]

Yes, of course. A reindeer that was raised alongside dogs apparently now thinks he's a dog too. Is Angie Nelson, founder of Real Reindeer in England, was forced to hand raise the reindeer calf, whom she called Lars because his mum Lumi ran out of milk. During that time, Lars became attached to the farm's three dogs.

[Chick McGee]

I dried up.

[Tom Griswold]

Sorry, Lars.

[Christy Lee]

Now Lars spends time outside with the other reindeer, but he still comes inside to drink from the dog bowl and snuggle in their basket. Told the news service, I'd say he's a 5050 dog reindeer. Now he plays with the other calves but still loves being with the dogs. By the way, Lars is named after Everest climber Lars Croup, because on his first day in the house, he broke out of his playpen and made his way upstairs.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, that's a sweet story.

[Christy Lee]

And did you know that reindeer. Male reindeers lose their antlers way before Christmas, Right after the rut. So Santa's sleigh is pulled by female reindeers. That's right. The females don't lose their antlers.

[Chick McGee]

Asher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen are all girls. Yeah, yeah. Rudolph though, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Why Santa's constantly getting lost, has no idea what to do with a four way.

[Bob Kevoian]

Stop.

[Chick McGee]

Stop putting your makeup on. Let's go.

[Bob Kevoian]

Is. Is the plural of reindeer? Reindeers, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, it is.

[Chick McGee]

No reindeer.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I would just think reindeer, like deer.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

All of the other reindeer.

[Bob Kevoian]

And you said you saw a reindeer yesterday?

[Christy Lee]

Two of them, two females.

[Tom Griswold]

Where they make.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, are we at the zoo?

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Scissoring part.

[Christy Lee]

No, they weren't. One was eating. The other one was lying down.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, one was eating.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, did you see a picture of the surrender that thinks it's a dog? There we go.

[Tom Griswold]

Go.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's the reindeer that thinks it's a dog.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, man.

[Chick McGee]

That doesn't look like a rain.

[Tom Griswold]

That's an ugly reindeer.

[Christy Lee]

That's a.

[Bob Kevoian]

Look at that guy.

[Chick McGee]

That is a half ass.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, there he is inside over there by the kitchen table. And look at the dog completely non plus sitting right next to him. There's her buddy.

[Tom Griswold]

You're talking about the dog sitting in the chair.

[Chick McGee]

Hard to look at, huh?

[Tom Griswold]

The husband's real thrilled with mother was Tom Petty.

[Bob Kevoian]

This is the show. This shows the dog's following him around the house.

[Christy Lee]

So cute. I would love to have a reindeer.

[Chick McGee]

Mary. Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, should. Shouldn't she be somewhere cracking mirrors, guys? Jeez.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, I'm looking at the beautiful reindeer. He's playing reindeer games. Apparently fetch is the new. Got a reindeer playing with a Frisbee.

[Tom Griswold]

With an owner like that, though, you fetch, you grab the ball and you keep running.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. You know what I mean?

[Tom Griswold]

There's no. No returning.

[Bob Kevoian]

Attractive.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just being a total idiot.

[Christy Lee]

Revelers in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, were stunned when a large wild bear made a surprise appearance at Gatlinburg's Christmas parade.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, how are you?

[Bob Kevoian]

Have you seen the video?

[Christy Lee]

The bear was seen walking down the route of Gatlinburg's 50th annual Fantasy of Life Christmas Parade right there on Main.

[Tom Griswold]

Street, playing the cymbals, seemingly unfazed by.

[Christy Lee]

The crowds as onlookers took Photos and videos of it passing by.

[Tom Griswold]

There really is a chance, I think Chick mentioned this when we teased this story, that people thought it was part of the parade.

[Christy Lee]

Sure, sure.

[Bob Kevoian]

Absolutely, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Look at it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, there's a photograph of it.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, hey, hey.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

He's the strength of a hundred men.

[Bob Kevoian]

And by the way, there are some huge lit trees, all these people taking pictures. You see a guy there in the front holding up his camera on his phone. And the bear is unfazed.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Is this a problem for our society? The large lights aren't bothering a. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Why isn't that bear phased at all?

[Christy Lee]

And why aren't the people around him phased?

[Tom Griswold]

They may think it's a trained.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, they must think it's a trained bear.

[Chick McGee]

There must be an invisible tether on that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Some kid tries to ride the thing.

[Chick McGee]

Good Lord.

[Bob Kevoian]

Bitten in the throat.

[Christy Lee]

We have more Santa news, this time a Santa with a bionic arm coming up.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay. Yikes. Be careful out there. Those bears are wild.

[Chick McGee]

Sharp eyes, sharp eyes.

[Bob Kevoian]

They are wild animals. Coming up, we have also, as you mentioned, our sanity. But we also have one of those unusual stories about some medical miracles in which a body part is transferred to a different part of the body temporarily for a blood supply. And it has a happy ending. And we will, of course, mock every aspect of it. From the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, this is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, thanks for listening this morning.

[Bob Kevoian]

Got something to say?

[Chick McGee]

Send us an email, Bob and [e-mail].

[Tom Griswold]

U.S. soccer Team Reality says the odds.

[Chick McGee]

Are stacked against us.

[Tom Griswold]

To think our U.S. men's National Team.

[Chick McGee]

Can ever raise the world's biggest trophy, be the first soccer team to beat them at football?

[Tom Griswold]

Never. But here's the thing about us refusing.

[Chick McGee]

To accept reality is kind of our thing. Being unrealistic. That's not a flaw.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a force.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's fuel.

[Tom Griswold]

Because if you want to be great.

[Chick McGee]

And make history, never chase reality. Join us soccer insiders today.

[Tom Griswold]

Be part of the journey.

[Christy Lee]

We're already falling. It's currently 28.

[Chick McGee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Top Show. We're the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. People say, are you guys really live? Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Heck yeah. There's Christy Lee at the SILAC Insurance news desk.

[Tom Griswold]

Howdy.

[Chick McGee]

There's Pat Godwin. Hello. There's Josh Arnold.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I hate Steven Singer, sidekick chair.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Ace Cosby. I'm Chick. Hello, Tom.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hello. Chick McGee.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, sir.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm just enjoying a little tea. Thank you very much. Nice Java house chick, Local listings. This is a good morning for tea. Yeah. No matter where you are, whatever the temperature might be. As arctic air descends across the universe, everywhere is cold. Now we have Christy Lee at the silac insurance news desk. I've got a request where to get to in just a few minutes. What have you got over there?

[Christy Lee]

A Santa with a bionic arm is getting an upgrade to help him with his holiday duties.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Christy Lee]

This year marks 67 year old Mike Tindall's 31st Christmas since his left forearm was amputated following a 1994 workshop accident.

[Tom Griswold]

My.

[Christy Lee]

You know, building toys is a very dangerous thing.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Christy Lee]

The u. S. Navy veteran became the first professional Santa in the world to get a bionic arm. He recently got upgraded to the new hero RGD arm from open bionics, which now allows him to easily handle his Santa sack full of gifts. He says, quote, I have had arms that were fragile or too heavy. This one is strong and light at the same time. It can handle anything, even a full Santa sack. He added, I want kids to see that being different doesn't hold you back.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's a whole. I was, I saw this whole thing about bionic hands. Now, the technology has really improved and I know you hear about AI constantly, but here's the story. University of Utah have integrated sensors into this bionic hand and the people who use it say it's much, much better. It's absolutely amazing technology.

[Tom Griswold]

Cool.

[Bob Kevoian]

They can. You're not going to get a Dr. Strangelove incident, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Right.

[Bob Kevoian]

Remember, you see Dr. Strangelove Christie, I did not.

[Chick McGee]

His hand kept trying to strangle him.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Is it a comedy? Oh, God, I have to see that.

[Bob Kevoian]

It is one of the greatest comedies.

[Christy Lee]

You guys talk about it a lot. I should look for that.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's brilliant.

[Tom Griswold]

Santa.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, there's Santa.

[Bob Kevoian]

There's Santa with the. With the bionic. I guess the six million dollar Santa.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it looks like my car.

[Bob Kevoian]

I was gonna say that. Wait a minute.

[Chick McGee]

That's Mike.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's Mike, my handyman. He was over my house yesterday.

[Christy Lee]

Well, that's where he was.

[Bob Kevoian]

By the way, there's a couple things about this sin. I mean, I'm not going to be critical of a man, but first of all, he's too thin to be Santa and he's wearing a baseball cap.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, just not right.

[Chick McGee]

No, Santa can wear a baseball cap.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I agree.

[Chick McGee]

I can't. Yeah. If it's like a red and green with a little Santa hat on the cap.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, that's just a baseball cap.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. You know, he can wear that until. Well, obviously he wouldn't wear that Christmas night. Well, but he can't want to. Santa's a sin distance.

[Chick McGee]

He can't be sent out. That's true. Yeah. Yeah. He's gotta. He's gotta clock out at some point and relax.

[Christy Lee]

True.

[Chick McGee]

Have some. Although, eat all those cookies. And you know what?

[Bob Kevoian]

If that guy can play rock paper, scissors and not crush the other guy's hand, Is that a fair question?

[Tom Griswold]

You don't. You don't. You don't touch hands. How are you playing like that?

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, he'd be. Wouldn't have control of things.

[Tom Griswold]

Contact.

[Bob Kevoian]

Of course I do. Pansies over there. Doing.

[Christy Lee]

A woman recently had her severed ear stitched onto her foot for several months before it was reattached to her head. The female factory worker was involved in an accident where her hair became entangled in a piece of machinery, tore off her left ear. Brutal scalp and part of the skin on her face. Due to the damage to the blood vessels, doctors in Shandong sewed the woman's ear onto the instep of her foot while she healed. After five months, they were finally able to reattach the woman's ear to its rightful spot.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

Doctors chose the foot because the skin in that area is thin and the blood vessels are similar in diameter to those on the ear, which facilitates transportation to the blood to the ear.

[Tom Griswold]

How about that?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. We've had a bunch of these stories.

[Chick McGee]

Why wouldn't you just wear a hat all the time?

[Tom Griswold]

I had a buddy who lost his ear, and. And he was a comedian, and, man, he. He had a great joke where he would go up on stage and he would go. He would look to the right side of the audience and go, you guys are going to get a much different show than the left side of the. Because it was quite noticeable that he did not.

[Christy Lee]

People were just always staring at his ear.

[Bob Kevoian]

Obviously.

[Chick McGee]

But isn't the. The outer ear there for decoration?

[Tom Griswold]

Exactly.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Because he was like, I don't need it to hear. And we were like, no, because we were always trying to. We were teasing him about getting a fake ear. We're like, the fake ear is for us, Keith.

[Chick McGee]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

It's not for you.

[Christy Lee]

He can wear one of those Porky Pig, you know, hunting cap things all the time. You know what I'm talking about?

[Tom Griswold]

The trapper's hat.

[Christy Lee]

Trapper's hat. Thank you.

[Bob Kevoian]

Soccer hat. Trapper hat.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

We had the first time. I remember one of these stories, and I'll be brief, but the guy was struck. He was using one of the. A rotary lawnmower. And he, and he. It had jammed and I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

How he did this.

[Bob Kevoian]

And he. So he. And he. Imagine he took the rotary lawnmower and put it on its side and straddling the lawnmower trying to unclog it.

[Christy Lee]

We got it unclogged already and he.

[Bob Kevoian]

But he had left it running and when he unclogged it, he got his hand out of the way, but it quite literally lopped off his male member. And I could, I'm not kidding. They took it and they, they sewed it to more or less to his.

[Christy Lee]

Elbow right inside there because.

[Bob Kevoian]

And they were waiting for the damage down there that I guess they, over time it clears up a little bit. And they. Then they ended up doing microsurgery and reattaching it. Then there was the other guy that they did a similar thing, but they put it on his forehead. He was, he was cockeyed for weeks.

[Tom Griswold]

Poor guy.

[Chick McGee]

He was cockeyed.

[Christy Lee]

Now in this case, at least they didn't call him.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's true.

[Chick McGee]

You ever think about that?

[Bob Kevoian]

And the assist by Christy Lee? But there was in this case, in this lady, they took her ear and to keep it in circulation, for some reason they put it down by her.

[Christy Lee]

Foot and her instep. Yeah, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

There was a similar one, a similar accident. It was much different industrial accident, but this lady was, was, she was footing. Well, you got it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. Just get to the point, lady. You don't need to.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

So. Yeah, but I guess sometimes they do put, they do put it on the forearm. Yeah. As opposed to the feet. I don't know, it's. But you know, what a miracle.

[Tom Griswold]

It's crazy. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

That they can do stuff like that.

[Tom Griswold]

Amazing.

[Christy Lee]

Speaking of women, a woman in San Francisco gave birth in a Waymo self driving taxi.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no kidding.

[Christy Lee]

The mother was on her way to the University of California, San Francisco's medical center when she delivered the baby inside the robo taxi. Yeah. The company said its rider support team had detected, quote, unusual activity inside the vehicle and called to check on the rider and then alerted 911 the taxi and its passengers arrived safely at the hospital. Waymo said the vehicle was taken out of service for cleaning after the ride.

[Bob Kevoian]

The cleaning fee is going to be cheaper than it would have been to give birth at the hospital. That's a great story. So she actually, excuse me, actually had the baby in the car.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. And the Waymo beat the ambulance to the hospital. I mean, they.

[Bob Kevoian]

He.

[Christy Lee]

They made it there before the ambulance could get to her, so.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Bob Kevoian]

Now, I have not been in a Waymo yet.

[Christy Lee]

They're small, too.

[Chick McGee]

I don't see you getting into a.

[Christy Lee]

They're a small little vehicle.

[Chick McGee]

I. I admire you being convincing, but I. I just. Just don't see it happen.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you sit in the passenger seat?

[Christy Lee]

I don't know. That's what's gonna ask that question.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you in control of the speed? Can you guys slow down?

[Chick McGee]

Can you sit in the driver's seat? Why not?

[Christy Lee]

I mean, I don't know where.

[Bob Kevoian]

I know you can. You can contact whatever it is, headquarters if you want. If you have an issue, you should.

[Christy Lee]

Get Oscar in here. He's the only one that's been in one. I don't know if you can sit in the back seat or if you have to, you know, if you can sit in the front seat.

[Tom Griswold]

Sitting in the back seat's funny because it's just funny for somebody to look and see somebody riding in the backseat with no one driving.

[Chick McGee]

Right.

[Christy Lee]

Exactly.

[Tom Griswold]

What they really need are, like, dogs to sit in the front. So that's always, always funny. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You know what? If they could train a dog to ride around in a wayo.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And like a fleet of dogs, their business would go up a thousand percent.

[Christy Lee]

That's a genius idea.

[Tom Griswold]

That's wonderful. And wear those cabbie hats.

[Chick McGee]

Every day I go on my timeline and I see dogs employed at, like, dentist office to come from comfort patients.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

It would be wonderful. A comfort dog.

[Tom Griswold]

I love store animals.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Love it.

[Bob Kevoian]

I should start bringing one of the dogs in here.

[Christy Lee]

You keep saying.

[Chick McGee]

You keep saying that and nothing happens.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hop in the car. We could have little Mr. Fletcher. I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know if that's a good idea. From what we understand, your dogs are constantly puking and crapping.

[Chick McGee]

Physically, three days out of five, you have a dog issue.

[Christy Lee]

Why do you. Dogs get sick all the time.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Why are they crying?

[Tom Griswold]

Fancy food.

[Bob Kevoian]

You feed them caviar?

[Tom Griswold]

Just a steady diet of Chef Boyardini. They're always sick.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'll bring Mr. Fletcher in. You'll like him.

[Tom Griswold]

Old Fletchy pants.

[Bob Kevoian]

He's a very quiet little guy.

[Chick McGee]

I say I bring in one of my dogs. You bring it. You. Yeah, Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I can bring in Leo. He's pretty chill.

[Bob Kevoian]

One at a time. My first.

[Chick McGee]

Josh, bring in gravy.

[Bob Kevoian]

When Bob and I working up in Harbor Springs, we had Sam and sheba were the two. Were the two house dogs.

[Christy Lee]

One was a standard poodle. Right.

[Bob Kevoian]

One was a beautiful white standard poodle. That was Sam.

[Chick McGee]

We had ever.

[Bob Kevoian]

Sheba was a Doberman and I'd never liked Doberman, so I got to know Sheba. And once Sheba knew you, you were fine.

[Christy Lee]

Did Sheba have the crop? Deers. Have you ever seen Dobies that haven't been cropped? And they're so cute.

[Bob Kevoian]

She had the whole whatever.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Look, the standard over my. Yeah, you're right. Bring a dog. It'll be fun.

[Christy Lee]

I have an English cream golden doodle so it.

[Bob Kevoian]

You could bring, you could bring the dog in. Probably one dog at a time would be the way to start.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Maybe have a designated dog day like bring your kid to work. Bring your dog to work. That'd be fun.

[Chick McGee]

Well, you would always have your dog here.

[Tom Griswold]

And we would never get.

[Chick McGee]

I know.

[Tom Griswold]

This isn't going to.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. This legal thing with us, this is going nowhere. He'll come up with something.

[Bob Kevoian]

I forgot about that. I talked to my lawyer.

[Chick McGee]

Only I, I, I checked with my lawyer and my doctor told him.

[Bob Kevoian]

Coming up, we have great white sharks in the news.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, we should have great white Shark Day.

[Chick McGee]

Bring it in.

[Christy Lee]

And are humans more or less promiscuous than animals? We'll talk about it.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, I'm gonna say more because we do it mostly for pleasure. Animals are primarily for creation, but you never know.

[Chick McGee]

I think animals do are more promiscuous. You just don't hear about it.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe. Yeah, they know how to keep their mouth shut.

[Christy Lee]

Exactly.

[Chick McGee]

They're not telling their friends, hey, look at me.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, well, you know what I can't keep my mouth shut about?

[Chick McGee]

No. Don't ever shut your mouth around these things.

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Hello. She's at the Silac Insurance news desk. There's Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

Pat gonna have a song this time? Tom gonna let him in?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, I think so. Pat, you got working on something? All right. Yeah, I'm ready to go. I think you should redo your Philip river song. I love that.

[Tom Griswold]

Like it too. It was fun.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold capability.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, sure.

[Chick McGee]

Ace Cosby.

[Bob Kevoian]

Pat seems a little down.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, no, he's not down. I, I think here's, here's Tom and.

[Chick McGee]

Pat to explain why they're fighting.

[Tom Griswold]

What happened there was he. He had a song ready and then you.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, you did?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I've been working on something.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, I had no idea it was done. I've been. I've walked by him six times this morning.

[Christy Lee]

You two never communicate.

[Chick McGee]

I've tried to. I've tried to. I'm doing all I can.

[Christy Lee]

I know.

[Bob Kevoian]

I do my best to not communicate with. With the people I'm fondest of.

[Christy Lee]

We noticed.

[Bob Kevoian]

Give Kelly a call. You can't ask her about if you have a terrible communicator.

[Chick McGee]

Have a song, say something. And if you. And you know he has a song, say something.

[Christy Lee]

Never step up.

[Chick McGee]

Why aren't you saying anything?

[Tom Griswold]

Wait, why aren't we asking Pat? Have you communicated to Tom that you have this song? Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, Tom.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, that's not true. I just said that's not true.

[Tom Griswold]

Look at your text. Well, how about our conversations every month?

[Bob Kevoian]

I was.

[Christy Lee]

Look at your.

[Bob Kevoian]

I was in the coffee room.

[Christy Lee]

Why don't you talk to him? He's sitting.

[Tom Griswold]

I talk to him every morning. Don't listen to him. He knows. I communicate to him. I over communicate. Then I give up a day or two, then I come back. This may be a give up day. I don't know.

[Bob Kevoian]

Pat said, oh, he had a song for one of the stories. Oh, okay. Why don't you do that? Because that's not what I said. Then he said, well, I said, which story was it? It was the one about the reindeer and the dog.

[Tom Griswold]

I told you I had a song for one of the stories that I didn't care for the way it turned out. And I wasted an hour and she was sitting right here. Am I right?

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Huh.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, so you don't want to do that.

[Christy Lee]

I didn't want to do that.

[Tom Griswold]

You know. Do you want to do Philip Rivers? Yeah, but I had. I had something.

[Christy Lee]

What do you want to do that you.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it's not going to work now. I'm going to come up like a big dick.

[Chick McGee]

You have to have a likable audience.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, we're on your side here.

[Tom Griswold]

We love you.

[Bob Kevoian]

We do love whatever the song is. We, I promise we will chuckle. Is this a comedy song?

[Chick McGee]

I've mediated all I can. I don't know what to do.

[Bob Kevoian]

As if I had a hammer.

[Tom Griswold]

Twas the night before Christmas oh, and Santa's in a daze he's all laid back and mellow and acting awful strange. Was there something in those cookies in Boise?

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

Cassandra's saying ha ha ha ha Instead of ho, ho ho. Is old St. Nick wasted? Did he eat off the wrong plate? He's laughing for no reason Says the presents might be late. Oh, what was in those cookies? Santa's dancing in the snow.

[Christy Lee]

And he.

[Tom Griswold]

Keeps on playing Grateful Dead instead of Nat King Cole that's the only laugh so far we know Santa's mouth.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm going ahead.

[Tom Griswold]

Mouth is dry his eyes are red as Rudolph's nose He's stopping at Taco Bell, has the munchies I support what was in those cookies back in Naho? Cause Santa saying instead of Santa seems buzzed Santa looks stone.

[Chick McGee]

Let him sleep it off.

[Tom Griswold]

Leave him alone. Yes. Santa saying instead of ho ho. Santa Sant. Instead of H. Santa say.

[Chick McGee]

Relapse.

[Bob Kevoian]

I applaud you.

[Christy Lee]

That was a lovely you. You.

[Tom Griswold]

We teased you and you just tripled down. Man, I love.

[Bob Kevoian]

So Santa had a gummy. Is that what happened?

[Tom Griswold]

Edible.

[Christy Lee]

He grabbed the wrong.

[Tom Griswold]

What was in those cookies? I don't know. No laugh. That's the one I was tinkering. I know.

[Bob Kevoian]

What does Boise, Idaho have to do with anything?

[Tom Griswold]

No, because. Travels all over the world and the turn of phrase. Boise, I don't know. Is great. Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Why did they do this to you?

[Christy Lee]

You have a great song, and then they tear it apart.

[Chick McGee]

That's what you. That's what you came away with after that song. Why. Why Boise, Idaho?

[Tom Griswold]

What's that about?

[Chick McGee]

Why is. Why is it a yellow submarine? I don't know.

[Bob Kevoian]

What are you.

[Chick McGee]

What are you trying to get to.

[Bob Kevoian]

Because a yellow submarine would be unusual.

[Tom Griswold]

Unusual.

[Bob Kevoian]

Typically, submarines.

[Chick McGee]

Well, Boise, Idaho, for starters, kind of singable.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. It worked great.

[Christy Lee]

It was wonderful.

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Chick McGee]

And it goes. Idaho, ho ho.

[Tom Griswold]

There you go.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, I see. Okay. Very good.

[Chick McGee]

You know what, Pat? I. I think I found the weak link in this. I think. I think I might be on to something from now on. You got a song? Give me the high sign.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll give you the big eyes you do. Tom, get joy out of seeing your friend suffer, and I.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. Yes, you do. No, no. You get joy out of seeing everyone suffer, friend or not.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't think I want to be with Tom. If we were, like, on a hike and I get into quicksand, I don't think I want him with me because laughing uncontrollably will laugh until it's just my nose.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

And I do believe he would then save me. But he will wait.

[Chick McGee]

And you know what he would say when he would look down he'd see your nose and he would say, well, I guess we better get him out of there. That's exactly what would happen.

[Tom Griswold]

Is there some truth to that? One of us is sinking in quicksand. You're going to watch us for a little bit.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And laugh and maybe throw things at us.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. No, I can't throw things.

[Chick McGee]

Just.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm going to be too busy with my camera.

[Chick McGee]

There are there. There are things going on in the sports world right now. And he's like, oh, boy. What happened then? Oh, yikes.

[Bob Kevoian]

You know?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, he's. He's in jail right now.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, geez.

[Chick McGee]

That's tough, huh?

[Christy Lee]

What happened with that story? Do we know anything more?

[Chick McGee]

He's supposed to. Supposed to be a news conference today. Sharon Moore, University of Michigan. He's still in jail.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yikes.

[Chick McGee]

Ex head coach.

[Bob Kevoian]

There appears to be no. Nothing good going on.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, you don't usually go to jail for something good.

[Bob Kevoian]

Occasionally, people do. Not everyone's guilty, you know.

[Chick McGee]

Christmas in jail.

[Bob Kevoian]

I had a little too much to drink. I love that song.

[Christy Lee]

There's big news. The Powerball jackpot has grown to an estimated $1 billion for tomorrow night's drawing. You heard me right. No ticket matched. All six numbers drawn Wednesday. There have been over a dozen lottery jackpot prizes that have gone over $1 billion since 2016.

[Chick McGee]

How many?

[Bob Kevoian]

You gonna buy a couple tickets? Josh?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, why not? Why not?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. I think I'll have to buy something.

[Chick McGee]

There's a drawing tonight or tomorrow night.

[Christy Lee]

I miss tomorrow night.

[Tom Griswold]

Tomorrow night.

[Christy Lee]

Saturday night?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. Go for it. Yeah, It'll be fun.

[Christy Lee]

Are you gonna buy some tickets?

[Bob Kevoian]

I am.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you guys mostly. Just give me the tickets or do you have numbers you want to play?

[Christy Lee]

I do the random. Give me the numbers. Yeah, you have numbers, you play?

[Tom Griswold]

I did for a while, and I've stopped. And ever since I've stopped, I've wondered if they've. They've hit. I couldn't tell. I have them in my notes on my phone. I couldn't tell you what they are. They say having numbers hits more than just letting them pick it. Man.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

That's wild.

[Chick McGee]

Well, because I read an article. From a practical standpoint, think about it. You're asking if you go in and say, the computer to pick your numbers, you're asking that. That to happen twice.

[Bob Kevoian]

Right.

[Chick McGee]

Computer would pick the numbers that you chose, and then another computer would pick the numbers that you chose on the computer.

[Tom Griswold]

He's right.

[Bob Kevoian]

Right?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I.

[Bob Kevoian]

This is out of my sphere of knowledge.

[Chick McGee]

I don't I mean there's no system obviously, but.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

It seems to me it'd be a little harder than coming up with your own numbers.

[Tom Griswold]

Interesting, right?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, but I always buy.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I hear. I see what you're saying.

[Bob Kevoian]

I always buy lottery tickets as stocking stuffers anyway.

[Christy Lee]

Scratch off, scratch offs. I do too.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's always.

[Bob Kevoian]

And I haven't done that yet. So I just saw. I noticed the stockings were out yesterday getting ready so. Them? No, no, they were. I noticed they were sitting over by the fireplace. So that means it's time.

[Christy Lee]

Are they hung by the fireplace?

[Bob Kevoian]

They're going to be. They were. You know this is a process now you guys.

[Chick McGee]

A stocking hanger guy I bet comes.

[Christy Lee]

Over and you don't have the little things. You sit on the mantel that have the little hooks.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes, but eventually I haven't spell out Noel or something. I just am saying I happened to notice it yesterday.

[Chick McGee]

Hooks for the stockings, they spell out Noel and then you get spell Leon as a joke.

[Tom Griswold]

Was Leon here again?

[Bob Kevoian]

You don't like that song?

[Christy Lee]

Hang yourself.

[Bob Kevoian]

The first. The first Leon.

[Chick McGee]

First Leon.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, of course.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, we do it on the same day.

[Christy Lee]

We put the trio.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well that's because you are a different religion.

[Christy Lee]

I have one.

[Bob Kevoian]

Very funny. Here at the church of Santa Claus we.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Hey, we have some news stories. We do too.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Sheriff's deputies in Florida wrangled a giant alligator outside of Sarasota 7 11. Recently the Sarasota County Sheriff's office shared footage of the 10 foot 3 inch long gator thrashing around a parking lot with a rope around its neck.

[Bob Kevoian]

Terrifying.

[Christy Lee]

You are so afraid of allocate.

[Chick McGee]

Why of course.

[Bob Kevoian]

Who wouldn't be?

[Christy Lee]

The video shows the 600 pound gator putting up a significant fight as deputies and a a contracted alligator wrangler worked to tape its jaws closed and loaded onto a truck.

[Tom Griswold]

I am Stumpy.

[Bob Kevoian]

Stumpy's alligator repair service.

[Christy Lee]

This is your second large Gator department assisted in relocating within seven days. On Tuesday a 14 footer weighing over 600 pounds was found and removed from Sarasota County. At night in the dark.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. They show the gun at night in the dark.

[Christy Lee]

Of course.

[Bob Kevoian]

A 14 foot gate.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, that's a big one.

[Tom Griswold]

Mostly tail. It's really nothing.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, really. Well the two feet of teeth are with them. That's my problem. And the so called death roll.

[Tom Griswold]

That's horrifying.

[Bob Kevoian]

So for those people that thought the hot dogs were the most dangerous thing at 7:11, I got news for you.

[Christy Lee]

Have you ever driven through Alligator Alley?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

And the Everglades and they're just all over. All along the side of their place.

[Tom Griswold]

I pulled over and I had my camera and my girlfriend at the time just screamed at me and went. And thankfully she did because I was going to go up to a couple and take a picture.

[Christy Lee]

How close would you have gotten? Some.

[Tom Griswold]

I would have gotten too close. I know it.

[Bob Kevoian]

They can run quite quickly. I know time is right.

[Chick McGee]

88 miles an hour.

[Tom Griswold]

I was like 22. I was an idiot.

[Christy Lee]

They do have a moat kind of along.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. There is like a ditch.

[Christy Lee]

I think it does protect you a little bit.

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. It wouldn't have been.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

She was right to yell.

[Bob Kevoian]

These guys are at a 7. Can you imagine some stoner going to 7 11? Get out of your car. Hey man, there's a 14 foot alligator there, man.

[Christy Lee]

And a massive grape.

[Bob Kevoian]

I was gonna get a 711 big bite.

[Tom Griswold]

What's that? A Big Bite.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's their hot dog.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I don't know.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, the 711 big bite.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, like you've had.

[Bob Kevoian]

Are you making it up? I used to live, you know what? When I lived in Florida, I lived like 300 yards from a 7 11.

[Tom Griswold]

The big bite.

[Christy Lee]

Did you get a Slurpee or whatever?

[Bob Kevoian]

I have never tried a Slurpee.

[Christy Lee]

A Slushy or whatever.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Slurpees. Yeah, Slurpee.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's not my. Yeah. Jam, if you will.

[Tom Griswold]

You remember when they came out, they came out with a Big Gulp that was. I forget if it was the Mega Big Gulp or something, but it was bigger than the human stomach.

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Chick McGee]

So 711 big bite is their signature large hot dog.

[Tom Griswold]

Nice.

[Chick McGee]

All be frank. Served on a soft bun and customizable at a condiment bar.

[Bob Kevoian]

Who is the genius that figured out, because there was a period of time when you got the big drinks that they wouldn't fit fit in your cup holder in your car.

[Christy Lee]

Right. So they made them smaller at the bottom.

[Bob Kevoian]

And then some engineer went, wait a minute, why don't we just shrink them down here? And I noticed that those Stanley things are now doing that. A bunch of those have the.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, the car. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

And then you get in. But if you get in the car and you have one that doesn't fit there. Well, isn't that a pain in the ass?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. So I guess it was easier to make the cup smaller than make the cup holders bigger.

[Christy Lee]

Well, of course, boy.

[Tom Griswold]

We grew up with a plastic hang from the window.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I remember those.

[Tom Griswold]

Those were always a little precarious, weren't they?

[Christy Lee]

Not the finest of plastic.

[Bob Kevoian]

So in any event, if you get a chance, the video of the guys wrangling this gator, I just think it's kind of scary. You pull into 7 11, open the door, and there's a giant gator sitting there. And this is not exclusive to seven eleven, by the way.

[Christy Lee]

No. There are gators all over Florida.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you guys think we were talking scratchers that. That we're only a few years away from them becoming peel off and not scratch off because of the short coins aren't nearly as prevalent as these.

[Christy Lee]

That's a good thing.

[Tom Griswold]

I know you can use something else, but.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, that's an interesting thought.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe it'll be some other. There'll be some new lottery technology. Yeah, it is flawed. It messes your car up, makes you get all that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, not everybody's so desperate they have to do it the second they get to their car path.

[Tom Griswold]

I know. That is my life. I need to pay rent right now.

[Bob Kevoian]

If this doesn't pay off, we're not getting gas.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, you're already right there, Jimmy. Cross your fingers if you're hungry. Now they'll even just scan them for you, which takes all the fun out of it. You buy them, you go. We scan that, and they go, yep. Not a winner.

[Christy Lee]

Are you serious?

[Tom Griswold]

It's not fun.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's like the thing at the, at the casinos where they don't have the coins anymore, but that was kind of half the fun.

[Christy Lee]

Getting your hands all dirty.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. The coins falling. Now you see the ladies with the oxygen tank and the cigarette and the thing that she just plugs in, that's attached to her, that she's got a lanyard with this card on. Loser.

[Tom Griswold]

Losers. Here's loser.

[Christy Lee]

People do win, of course.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm just saying.

[Tom Griswold]

He's saying loser for other reasons.

[Chick McGee]

How is it when you're out in the world, you don't get your ass fast?

[Bob Kevoian]

Speed every day.

[Chick McGee]

How is that? I, I really. That's amazing.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you daily say the phrase, look at this loser to.

[Chick McGee]

To yourself?

[Bob Kevoian]

I think it often.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's what I thought.

[Bob Kevoian]

I also will a lot of people, I will a lot of other drivers to just die.

[Tom Griswold]

He wants them.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, lady, you're reinforcing every stereotype about your country and your people, okay? Learn to learn how to drive in America.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you, country and your people.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, right now it's time to talk about Stephen Singer jewelers. Because let's face it. There may be a problem with Stephen. He has not raised the price of those beautiful, beautiful diamond stud earrings. Even though the price of gold is up. The price of diamonds is way. But no, it's the same price as last year.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Bob Kevoian]

That. I don't know how it's possible for him to charge that amount of money. It's.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

I mean, it's so little. What's happening? Stephen, Are you okay? I'll have to call his dog Buddy again.

[Tom Griswold]

Again.

[Bob Kevoian]

He takes care of Stephen. Stephen Singer jewelers. Don't forget that prize package from the NFL that we do every week. Oh, it's awesome. Thank you. Stephen Singer Jeweler.

[Chick McGee]

You're wearing me out.

[Bob Kevoian]

You know that's my job.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

I look forward to it.

Exhausted.

Oh, that's right.

[Tom Griswold]

[Bob Kevoian]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

A couple good birthdays today. Really? Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Well, we'll see about that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Dicky Betts from.

[Chick McGee]

There you go.

[Bob Kevoian]

From the allman brothers.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

2%.

[Bob Kevoian]

What do you mean, 2%?

[Chick McGee]

That's how many people know who Dicky Betts is right now.

[Bob Kevoian]

The great song Rambling man, written by Dicky Betts in memory of Elizabeth Reed, 2% southbound. The guy was brilliant. Dickey Betts was in here and he.

[Tom Griswold]

Did one of them.

[Bob Kevoian]

This is, this is a. One of my favorites for Ace. You'll like this story.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. It was the problem, one of the.

[Bob Kevoian]

One of the Allman Brothers reunion tours. And Dickey Betts and Greg Allman came in here and they brought along Warren Haynes for the first time. Warren was, was the first time he was going to play with the Allman Brothers. And the three of them were sitting in the studio and we were talking on the air and Dickey Betts kind of signaled me to throw me. Throw him his. A Sharpie. And I took it and he wrote an arrow and he wrote down Warren Haynes because he wanted me to bring Warren into the discussion.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Cool guy. And by the way, I was just reading Cameron Crowe's book. Anybody called, what is it called? The Uncool or something? Yeah, Cameron Crowe is the guy that wrote Fast Times at Ridgemont High. He wrote Almost Famous.

[Tom Griswold]

Jerry Maguire.

[Bob Kevoian]

The character, the character, the character. The, the nice guy rock star thing in. Shut up in Almost Famous is based on Dicky Betts. So. All right, Good guy had some troubles at the end, but happy birthday to the late Dicky.

[Chick McGee]

Wait a minute.

[Bob Kevoian]

Troubles at the end? Now Josh.

[Chick McGee]

It's an amazing.

[Bob Kevoian]

Josh. If this had been, you know, what. The guy from, you know, Puddle of, Puddle of Jizz, whatever that band is like, would you have celebrated his birthday?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But you would not have talked about it because you weren't all as aware of it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, yeah, we know how to. I'm sorry. How about this? In 1946, Tide detergent was introduced.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, check. Do you wash your clothes in Tide?

[Chick McGee]

Of course. It's too cold to wash them out. Tide. Thank you very much. Thank you.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah, I. I'm.

[Chick McGee]

I. I got a yeah from Tom.

[Bob Kevoian]

Do you use.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm a loyal Tide user.

[Bob Kevoian]

I am, too, because my mom used it same. And I. This.

[Chick McGee]

I my mommy now.

[Tom Griswold]

My mom used the powder. I'm liquid.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, no, no, no. I use. I use the pods.

[Chick McGee]

Gotta use the pod.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, go ahead, destroy the. Actually. Oh, you know what?

[Chick McGee]

I am lying.

[Tom Griswold]

The last couple months, I have changed completely.

[Christy Lee]

What have you changed to?

[Tom Griswold]

I use eco sheets. So it's like a dryer sheet.

[Christy Lee]

I tried those.

[Tom Griswold]

I love them. Dude. You didn't care for the them?

[Christy Lee]

No, I didn't care for them. They didn't dissolve all the way or something?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh.

[Christy Lee]

I don't know what happened, but, yeah, I love them.

[Tom Griswold]

They're easy.

[Christy Lee]

I might have had a different brand. I don't want to.

[Bob Kevoian]

Happy birthday, Tide. Oh, wait a minute. Is it.

[Tom Griswold]

Did we go on too long?

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm sorry.

[Tom Griswold]

Dicky Pets used those, too.

[Chick McGee]

How about that? Maybe we can talk about that.

[Christy Lee]

Surprised you're not using those eco sheets at your house.

[Tom Griswold]

You might be.

[Chick McGee]

Here we go again. Christy Or Mike is on. Okay, I'm trying.

[Bob Kevoian]

1964. You might like this, Josh.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

George Harrison had a bagel. I liked that.

[Tom Griswold]

It's Dicky best birthday. I didn't like the four minutes of.

[Bob Kevoian]

I thought it was a cool story, that he was such a nice guy that he made an effort. He's.

[Tom Griswold]

Now we hear it again.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, we gotta hear it again.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's. I like it when people are nice.

[Tom Griswold]

No, you don't.

[Chick McGee]

No, you don't.

[Christy Lee]

Why aren't you nice?

[Chick McGee]

You know what the bad part is? You're lying to yourself. I understand part that is the worst part. I like it when people are nice. Look at this dumbass over here.

[Bob Kevoian]

I just don't like it when people are stupid morons. Okay, where was I? Sorry, Pat. Is it. Is it not Frank Sinatra's birthday? Yes, it is. Born in 1915.

[Chick McGee]

Wow. In Hoboken.

[Tom Griswold]

Hoboken, New Jersey.

[Chick McGee]

Dying again.

[Bob Kevoian]

Happy. Oh. Oh. Wow. Born in 1923. Bob Barker. And he just passed recently, right? A couple years ago. Didn't he live to be 100?

[Tom Griswold]

He was up there.

[Christy Lee]

He was up. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But he is now living a whole new life as AI. There are Bob Barker videos out the wazoo.

[Christy Lee]

Are you serious?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yes.

[Tom Griswold]

And they are pretty funny. Him talking rudely.

[Chick McGee]

They are somewhat off color.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, they are things you wouldn't expect. Expect Parker to say to a contestant.

[Chick McGee]

That's great.

[Bob Kevoian]

That'd be a great name for a dog.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, Bob Barker.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. That'd be a grill. Next. Oh, next dog. Bob Barker. Although I don't think my girls wouldn't get it.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Bob Kevoian]

It was very tough convincing them to name Dungy. Dungy.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Because you said you were gonna let them name the dog and then you wouldn't let them.

[Bob Kevoian]

I had to sell them on it. And then they agreed.

[Tom Griswold]

They even had a list of names.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes.

[Christy Lee]

They were really excited about it.

[Bob Kevoian]

What I did was I got the dog while they were at camp and so they had no input. Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, he's nice.

[Bob Kevoian]

Let's see now. What else? Oh, here's another good one. You'll like a Bill Nighy, born in 1949. The guy from Love, actually.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

Plays the aging rock star.

[Tom Griswold]

He's a good actor.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, he is.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Terrific.

[Bob Kevoian]

I see you like that one. Jennifer Connelly. You like her? Born in 1975.

[Tom Griswold]

She's five. Mine. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

This one, she won Best actress Oscar.

[Tom Griswold]

I think, for Beautiful Mind.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Misstep.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

That's a shame.

[Bob Kevoian]

1901. And I'm not sure if I'm pronouncing this correctly. And I apologize. Googly Algoliel Mo Marconi sent the first transatlantic radio signal.

[Christy Lee]

You know what it was? It was S.

[Tom Griswold]

The S word.

[Christy Lee]

Just S. The letter S. I heard this this morning. That's how I know.

[Chick McGee]

Weird.

[Tom Griswold]

He just went S. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

His first transmission, it was just S.

[Chick McGee]

Sounds like you were listening to Super AM Radio. Kelly.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, today, of course, if that were the. It'd be F. And actually, coming up, we have the F word in the news.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Is it healthy for you? We'll find out.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, thank you very much. When we come back, it's F word time. We can't say it, but we'll just put it that way. These are the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, and this is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

Thanks for listening to the Bob and Tom show, sponsored in part by Jim Java House. The official coffee and refreshments of the Bob and Tom Show. Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. There's Christy Lee.

[Christy Lee]

[Tom Griswold]

I'm texting, too. We're texting each other?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

That's weird, huh?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So is the answer. Just check.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes or no?

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey.

[Chick McGee]

Hi, Chick McGee. Hello, Tom.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hello, Chick McGee. Sorry, I was. I wasn't. I was. Look, going through some papers. I wanted to read some, you know, you.

[Chick McGee]

Never mind. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

Welcome back.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

You weren't texting.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, I'm not. I almost never pick up my phone when we're on the show.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, you don't text your sweetie? My sweetie just texted me and I said, I love you too.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, that's so nice. So he wasn't listening 45 minutes ago when you threw him under the bus.

[Christy Lee]

Kickstarter, aren't you?

[Tom Griswold]

That's a troublemaker.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, he is.

[Bob Kevoian]

A couple things going on. We've got Haywood Banks at the old theater in Lowell, Michigan coming up Saturday night. One of. One of. A lot of.

[Chick McGee]

A lot of.

[Tom Griswold]

He didn't even bother calling in, did he?

[Bob Kevoian]

A lot of our friends are here and there.

[Tom Griswold]

Just said, hey, Tom, talk about this.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

Boy, oh, boy.

[Bob Kevoian]

How about.

[Chick McGee]

Got you on a pretty short lease.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yesterday.

[Chick McGee]

Next hour. I'll get that.

[Tom Griswold]

Right.

[Bob Kevoian]

We talked to Jamie yesterday. We. Was it yesterday.

[Tom Griswold]

You were gonna say Jamie Lee Curtis.

[Bob Kevoian]

You were gonna say Jamie Lisso, the comedian who's wonderful. We talked to him yesterday. I just want to warn you. December 20th, Saturday, Springfield, Missouri, at the. It looks like either Gilia's or Gilois or something. It's a theater there, you know, if you live there. He's terrific.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Very good.

[Bob Kevoian]

Can't help but mention a. Again. Okay, very good. Let's move forward here. Christy Lee is at the Silac Insurance news desk. Pat, can we get your. Your song out about Philip Rivers? Because that's such a great story in the NFL. Some people are very upset about it.

[Chick McGee]

Chick was playing former players. Yeah. Really starting to line up against it.

[Bob Kevoian]

It's.

[Tom Griswold]

But you're excited?

[Bob Kevoian]

I think I want to see what happens.

[Christy Lee]

I hope he does a good job.

[Chick McGee]

I think it's a great story.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, I was excited about Aaron Rodgers sticking around.

[Christy Lee]

Has he been activated?

[Chick McGee]

Not yet.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, activate. And. But apparently they. They can activate them from the practice squad as late as the morning of the 35.

[Chick McGee]

35 minutes before the game.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, he's at 35 minutes.

[Chick McGee]

Inactive actives.

[Tom Griswold]

Y. Oh.

[Chick McGee]

What's the gamesmanship? Is the spread 17?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, jeez.

[Chick McGee]

No, it's 14. I was.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay. Okay, still.

[Chick McGee]

I was just gonna answer 17, whatever question you were gonna ask. I don't know why I chose that, but. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, I could do it really fast.

[Christy Lee]

Number 17.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

This is number 17. That's the number he's wearing.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, 17.

[Bob Kevoian]

But I'm not going to.

[Chick McGee]

Josh.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, no.

[Bob Kevoian]

You're after my school bus. Joke fell flat. I don't dare do any more underage. Let's move forward.

[Chick McGee]

The word underage depends what state you're in. Always funny.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay. Your song.

[Chick McGee]

I'm ready to go.

[Tom Griswold]

I was just going over my chord changes. All right.

[Christy Lee]

Well, then pick up your guitar.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh.

[Bob Kevoian]

All right. Christie raises a good point. Unless you're doing the acapella version normally.

[Tom Griswold]

The setup's three hours. I had time to chill, have myself a sandwich.

[Bob Kevoian]

I know you're getting it too. The great Philip Rivers will once again be a cult.

[Chick McGee]

Look, I'm not saying that I'm not having fun. Are we having fun?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

There's gotta be a better way to do this. Okay, it really has to.

[Tom Griswold]

Old Mad River Phil of rivers he's got 10 children even his children have children that Old Man Rivers he just keeps throwing that ball. He's 44 now long since forgotten but with Daniel Jones out, the court's got nothing Call Old Man Rivers he's up and expecting your call. Eyes like Aaron Rodgers are racked with pain Heels busted, ankles sprained Lander tried to subvert he failed Mark Sanchez got arrested and wound up in jail. I'd be so sick of hurting if I was a player or even being fired I'd take that pension and stay retired but old Man Rivers he just keeps throwing that ball.

[Chick McGee]

Very nice. Oh, thank you very much.

[Tom Griswold]

Please sit down. Please. I want you to be honest. When you hear Pat do that song.

[Christy Lee]

Don't, Don't, Don't Go.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you picturing Pat as is? Because sometimes when he sings it, I look over at you and you're. You're not necessarily laughing at what he's saying. I. I think you're laughing at something else.

[Christy Lee]

I do too.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. I think.

[Tom Griswold]

And do you secret secretly want to hear me do chilling instead of chilling?

[Bob Kevoian]

Right.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

At one point, he sort of segued into.

[Tom Griswold]

Are many shades in my voice.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, there are.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. But he didn't go the one direction. That would have been toxic, but he, he, he, he took a couple of left turns. But I, I, I applaud you.

[Tom Griswold]

I had.

[Bob Kevoian]

By the way, Christy, Correction here.

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Bob Kevoian]

1901, Guglielmo Marconi sent the first transatlantic radio signal. You claim he did what?

[Christy Lee]

He said the letter S is what I heard this morning.

[Bob Kevoian]

According to this, he said, are you ready to rock? I'm not sure if this is correct.

[Christy Lee]

Thank you, Mr. Marconi, or we wouldn't be here.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, we have Christy Lee at the Silac Insurance news desk.

[Tom Griswold]

You're right, Christy. We wouldn't be here. We'd be out on a street corner shouting at people as they walk by.

[Chick McGee]

What? There's Marconi, there's Zamboni, there's Jacuzzi. All those guys. What the hell's going on?

[Tom Griswold]

I was watching a hockey game this week and they refused to say Zamboni. They kept saying ice cleaner.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, no kidding?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I don't know.

[Christy Lee]

Is it a different brand, I bet.

[Tom Griswold]

No idea.

[Bob Kevoian]

Maybe.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

And they said, don't you dare mention Zamboni. We're not a Zamboni.

[Bob Kevoian]

I wonder what the secondary brand is.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know, but they were. Yeah, they kept referencing the ice cleaner, so there must have been some mandate that came down. A guy, guys.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

I wonder if. Was there some problem with the Zamboni family?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, maybe they found out there's some dark history.

[Bob Kevoian]

Was he coaching at the University of Michigan?

[Chick McGee]

I got the. The term underage was used.

[Christy Lee]

A new study out there asked the question of who curses the most in the English language, American spirits or Australians.

[Bob Kevoian]

This is astonishing.

[Tom Griswold]

I would have guessed Australia.

[Christy Lee]

Scientists at the University of Eastern Finland. That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Australia.

[Bob Kevoian]

I see. I'm completely in agreement with you.

[Christy Lee]

Examine 7.8 billion words posted by nearly half a million X users from the us, the UK and Australia and discovered.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, this makes more sense.

[Christy Lee]

Americans drop the F bomb the most frequently, of course, followed by Brits. Lastly, Australia.

[Chick McGee]

Usa. Usa.

[Christy Lee]

Apparently, researchers noted that the low frequency of, of the, you know, F word in the Australian data are surprising as Australians are often perceived as prolific swearers.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, but I bet they have better words than the F word that they are using. Do you think that might even be going under the radar here?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, and I bet the British are crushing us on the C word.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, exactly. Yeah, they are.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's everywhere. Yeah, but I, I would have to talk to a scientist. I think, I think the validity of doing this only on X I think skews it.

[Tom Griswold]

It does. But people would probably be more prone to cuss on X than they would be in real life.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, that's what I think.

[Tom Griswold]

And especially the topics that come up.

[Christy Lee]

Well, that's true. They're mad.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

I think in our culture there probably is swear word inflation in general.

[Tom Griswold]

Probably. I mean, even our, you know, people in highest office are cursing regularly now.

[Christy Lee]

They should have asked the. This question. They should have done the survey of people and that while they're driving. That's when people curse the most, I think.

[Bob Kevoian]

No, not for me.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no. When's. When's it for you?

[Bob Kevoian]

Roller coasters. I. I was.

[Chick McGee]

How often do you find yourself on.

[Tom Griswold]

A roller coaster anymore?

[Bob Kevoian]

I was in the Disney World a month ago and Kelly had to get me to shut up because the girls were right there. Well, I can't. I can't help myself. And it wasn't even. Yeah, it wasn't even the scary ones.

[Tom Griswold]

It was the Dumbo.

[Chick McGee]

The Dumbo.

[Bob Kevoian]

President's hall.

[Tom Griswold]

Singing the President's John Adams. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, that's. You know, I didn't. No one would go into the hall of Presidents with me because I love going in there. And you will hear people cheering and booing. It is so funny.

[Christy Lee]

In and out has officially retired the number 67 from its ticket order system amid the viral 6, 7 trend. People magazine confirmed the west coast burger chain removed the number from orders after young people lined up to eagerly await the number being called. But.

[Tom Griswold]

But they were actually ordering. I would have thought they would have doubled down.

[Christy Lee]

An in out employee told the publication the chain has also banned the number 69. Yep. 69.

[Bob Kevoian]

They've. 86. 69.

[Christy Lee]

Yep. Yeah, they go from 66 to 68 to 70.

[Bob Kevoian]

I mean, the 69 thing.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

So name of the. Well, the name of the place.

[Tom Griswold]

In and out.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, they've already.

[Chick McGee]

Well, no, you come in and you go out.

[Bob Kevoian]

I know it's. But did you ever see the movie, you know, they use the old in out phrase. Anyone?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I know.

[Bob Kevoian]

Clockwork Orange.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Goes. You know, the Malcolm McDowell guy. I gave it the old in over at the.

[Chick McGee]

Over at the old milk bar.

[Bob Kevoian]

I. Yeah, this. The six, seven thing.

[Christy Lee]

That's got to burn out quickly, doesn't it?

[Bob Kevoian]

I told you there were some great.

[Chick McGee]

Online celebrations when anyone would order a 667 too. People celebrating and singing.

[Tom Griswold]

That's why they stopped it. Yeah, yeah, go ahead and keep it going, kids in there.

[Bob Kevoian]

And I'm wondering on the 7th of June, as someone in here said, yeah, it'll probably be over by then.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Who knows?

[Bob Kevoian]

The fact that we know about it means it's over, right?

[Tom Griswold]

It's. Boy, my niece was throwing it around like crazy.

[Bob Kevoian]

Mr. Osu was saying something really interesting with respect to what's it called, synchronized swimming. And his lady is coaches and his daughter participates.

[Christy Lee]

Very good.

[Bob Kevoian]

So they're counting backwards now, now.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Instead of going, okay, you know, 4, 5, 6, 7 to get the right.

[Tom Griswold]

Instead of 5, 6, 7.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. They're going, whatever, whatever the number.

[Chick McGee]

9, 8, 7, 6, 1, 2, 3, 4.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. You could just go back to the beginning.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

No. Is your trainer doing that?

[Christy Lee]

No. No.

[Bob Kevoian]

Because it's hard to do if you're. Especially if you're lifting weights. It's hard to kind of suddenly go like this with your hand.

[Tom Griswold]

How is Raul these days? I remember you saying, still have those washboard abs?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yes. Those tight, tight, tight pants.

[Christy Lee]

Look at those biceps.

[Tom Griswold]

Pringle scan up front.

[Christy Lee]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

She's at the SILAC Insurance news desk. There's Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, there's Josh Arnold.

[Tom Griswold]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

He's at the I Hate Steven Singer sidekick chair. There's Ace Cosby. Hey, Everybody, I'm Chick McGee. Hello, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, Chick McGee.

[Chick McGee]

Hello. Hello.

[Bob Kevoian]

Did you guys know what I wrote it? Story about the parachute guy getting stuck on the wing.

[Chick McGee]

Yes or no? No.

[Tom Griswold]

Horrifying, huh?

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

He opened it too soon, didn't he?

[Chick McGee]

No, no. Wind blew, blew him back past the door and his. One of the handles got stuck on the plane. He yanked the chute out and it's. It stuck on the back. The vertical or the horizontal wing? On the back. And he.

[Bob Kevoian]

Excuse me.

[Chick McGee]

And the guy had to go back and cut him. Cut him loose with a knife. And then. Okay, thankfully, his main shoot open.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, here it is. An Australian skydiver survived a harrowing jump after his parachute got caught on the plane's wing. And Chick's right, it was the. It was the one in the back.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. The ancillary shoot, the poop shoot.

[Bob Kevoian]

There was 17 parachuters taking part.

[Chick McGee]

That's too many.

[Bob Kevoian]

And I guess. But, yeah, the guy had to take a knife out and cut because he was. Then he's dangling from the back of the plane. And I guess the pilots every. He said, everybody get out of the plane.

[Chick McGee]

However, it wasn't. It wasn't that high. It was only 15,000ft. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

There he is.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Must have been so scary good.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. You can see he's dangling from the. Oh, it's.

[Christy Lee]

Couldn't he just stay there? And then when he landed, just put his feet up.

[Bob Kevoian]

You know what he could in a cartoon.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, no, no. Do the Buster Keaton thing. Just start running before you. Exactly. Yes, yes.

[Tom Griswold]

About four feet from the ground, you start running.

[Chick McGee]

Yep.

[Bob Kevoian]

And then when you. Yeah, the report I saw. I guess the pilot wanted everybody out of the plane in case the plane went down.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my gosh.

[Bob Kevoian]

Because the. I guess the.

[Christy Lee]

Well, that Would affect your ability to fly the plane on one side like that.

[Bob Kevoian]

The plane landed safely. It was. It was damaged during the incident. The drive.

[Chick McGee]

The.

[Bob Kevoian]

The guy skydiver did sustain minor inc. Injuries and. And he has a new nickname.

[Tom Griswold]

What's that?

[Bob Kevoian]

Mud falcon.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I. I bet. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

There may or may not have been.

[Chick McGee]

I don't think I could do that. Well, no, no. In midair, have a. You know, climbing a big tower or being up high and going over the ledge of a tall building using the bathroom off of.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, you mean create a mud falcon. You couldn't sky dive, could you?

[Chick McGee]

No, I would not want to do that.

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

There was a time I would have probably tried it, but not now.

[Bob Kevoian]

Did you ever do a bungee jump?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I did those. Yeah, I did that. In the swing of death.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. Yeah, I've done both. Those two.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

I could skydive, but I will be very afraid.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Would you have to do the tandem thing where you were attached to a.

[Tom Griswold]

Quality they make you. Right.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Your first time or something?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. I don't think they allow you to just jump out of a plane without it.

[Chick McGee]

Do you think anybody who teaches skydiving and. And is attached. He's on the back, I assume the pros on the back. And he has the student underneath him.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Just whispers in the ear. Oh, yeah, all the way. Wouldn't that be like the funny. The funny guy feel that?

[Tom Griswold]

You feel that?

[Chick McGee]

You feeling that?

[Bob Kevoian]

What's it gonna take to make me open the shoot?

[Chick McGee]

You know, I've got to shoot and you've got to shoot, so.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wow.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, it's a pretty cool video if you see it. But anyway, everybody's okay. I guess when the guy was getting out of the. The airplane, they. Some clip hit the side of the.

[Tom Griswold]

Plane and released that ancillary.

[Chick McGee]

Release the. No, it was the spare shoe.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I see.

[Bob Kevoian]

I like that guy's photographs and ancillary Adams.

[Chick McGee]

You know what I. You know what I bumped into yesterday when I saw this video was. I thought it was AI. I thought it was.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. I'm out of. Hell with that. I didn't.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, that's a problem, though.

[Christy Lee]

It's been a huge problem.

[Bob Kevoian]

Problem.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that crocodile ate that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, that's AI.

[Christy Lee]

At the LSU game on the field. That was ridiculous.

[Chick McGee]

Well, how about the chicken walking in with the balloon on it?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, that was fun.

[Chick McGee]

Have you seen this?

[Tom Griswold]

Is this fake or AI?

[Chick McGee]

It's AI, but it's wonderful. It's a chicken walking into a room with five dogs. In it. And the chicken pops the balloon with his beak and the dogs go crazy and. And mess up a sectional.

[Tom Griswold]

So.

[Chick McGee]

And the owner's crying. It's great.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, man.

[Chick McGee]

AI or not. It was lovely.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yes.

[Christy Lee]

A massive great white shark. This is not AI, this is real. Named Contender is being electronically followed off the coast of the Carolinas.

[Chick McGee]

That could have been somebody.

[Christy Lee]

Oh. Searcher said contender was just 105 miles off the coast of Charleston on Monday and was making his way towards shore. Measuring 14ft long and weighing over 6, 1600 pounds.

[Tom Griswold]

He's not hurting anymore.

[Christy Lee]

Contender was first.

[Bob Kevoian]

Why?

[Christy Lee]

I'll be.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'll be skiing in Colorado nearly a year ago.

[Christy Lee]

He has traveled nearly 5,000 miles since then. I'm thinking about going to Charleston for the holiday. So maybe I'm not afraid.

[Bob Kevoian]

So they got. How does that work? Those.

[Chick McGee]

Are you gonna get in the surf?

[Christy Lee]

No, it's too cold.

[Bob Kevoian]

How close do they have to get to the shark? To.

[Tom Griswold]

Fairly to.

[Bob Kevoian]

To.

[Tom Griswold]

They have long spear like things and they do have to. And sometimes they actually bring the sharks aboard. They put him on a net on the side of the boat. They lift them and then they. They actually have to insert into the dorsal fin and the like near the back those things or, you know, kind of on.

[Bob Kevoian]

How do they. So do they catch them with a hook?

[Chick McGee]

No, it looks like a pit stop at a motorcar race. Yeah, they lift them up. Lift them up out of the surf and these guys work on the sharks and then they drop them.

[Tom Griswold]

That is what he looks like after they get them. Yeah, yeah. Otherwise you can stab it. You can kind of clip it on.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm sort of visualizing Jaws with the spear gun and they do it on.

[Tom Griswold]

Shark week all the time and it's pretty cool.

[Bob Kevoian]

And then once they get the radio device on them, how close do they have to be to sense. To sense it?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I not. No, I think it's on a satellite, right? Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. The trouble that they have is releasing the shark. That's when they all have to go, okay, we're gonna let go of this thing. Everyone step back.

[Chick McGee]

Well, no, the problem is sharks are so affectionate.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

They want to be there with the people.

[Bob Kevoian]

Said he's pissed.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Back off. Wow. So that's a big one.

[Christy Lee]

A rare seven armed deep sea octopus washed up on a Scottish beach. Known as a septipus, the giant gelatinous.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, I have never heard of this.

[Chick McGee]

Septicus.

[Christy Lee]

The giant gelatinous octopus is also called the blob octopus creatures.

[Bob Kevoian]

I saw this this is. There's a pict picture of this. It's so gross.

[Christy Lee]

They have eight arms like other octopus types. But in males one of the arms is also a reproductive organ that they attach to the females when mating.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh. And then they. It unattaches.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Or detaches rather.

[Christy Lee]

When biologist Dr. Lawrence Smith told the broadcaster that seven arm octopuses were a remarkable and rarely documented species and that they tend to live over 1,000ft below the seaside surface.

[Bob Kevoian]

And there's a picture of a lady holding. That thing is as big as her arm. That's part of one of the tentacles.

[Chick McGee]

But is that the reproductive part?

[Tom Griswold]

They must be if it came off right. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Wow.

[Bob Kevoian]

But I mean I'm a blob. So one of the. One of the eight tentacles is actually the pe.

[Christy Lee]

Pe.

[Bob Kevoian]

Male organ because I know they. There's a female in which seven.

[Chick McGee]

Of a. He's shoving this down.

[Bob Kevoian]

That's called the.

[Tom Griswold]

It's called a.

[Bob Kevoian]

Mostly puss.

[Tom Griswold]

Mostly puss. We caught the rare. Most Laos today.

[Bob Kevoian]

Mostly.

[Tom Griswold]

Thankfully there were only seven of us on the boat. We all got to stand in a circle now. Careful releasing it. It's pretty pissed off.

[Christy Lee]

A study out there has found that humans. Humans are less promiscuous than most animals. According to the University of Cambridge, humans are far closer to meerkats and beavers for levels of exclusive mating than we are to most primates. The most promiscuous species is Scotland's soway sheep. S O A Y. How would you say that? Soway.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. So this is most promiscuous. I see not who has sex more but with most partners.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. This particular sheep has a monogamy. A monogamy rating of just 0.6%.

[Bob Kevoian]

A sheep. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Don't fall in love with a sheep.

[Chick McGee]

Come on. When are you gonna go start playing the field? Come on, get out here with us.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

The most monogamous is the California deer mouse which has a 100% monogamy rate as the animals stay paired for life.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, where are you going?

[Bob Kevoian]

I. Huh?

[Tom Griswold]

What are you up to lady?

[Chick McGee]

How about you on the California deer Miles?

[Christy Lee]

Humans have an overall 66% rate. The White haired gibbon comes close to humans in the study with a monogamy rate of 63 and a half percent.

[Chick McGee]

It's Jibbin.

[Christy Lee]

Mountain gorillas manage a 6% full sibling rate. What's that mean?

[Chick McGee]

Well, I don't even want to know.

[Christy Lee]

I don't want to know that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I bang my brothers.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

That's a chattahoochee river all over it. Don't talk about that.

[Bob Kevoian]

So humans are pretty.

[Christy Lee]

Pretty monogamous for the most.

[Bob Kevoian]

Relatively. Compared to.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, that's married animals.

[Bob Kevoian]

This is a stupid question. Sorry. Do sheep have horns on the sheep?

[Chick McGee]

No, but they use their hand signals every now and then. Thank you very much. Thank you.

[Christy Lee]

We have seen rams with those big, curly.

[Bob Kevoian]

So those are sheep?

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Best NFL football helmet.

[Tom Griswold]

Rams.

[Christy Lee]

Rams.

[Chick McGee]

Don't you think?

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Pretty good. No. No. Well, which one, then? That's pretty good.

[Bob Kevoian]

I don't know, Bronco.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a thing called rams Is pretty good.

[Bob Kevoian]

Vikings, Cleveland Browns, Bighorn sheep.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that's nothing on it. Dumb. Classy, really. All right.

[Bob Kevoian]

So is perhaps the reason that humans are less promiscuous.

[Tom Griswold]

All your motions.

[Bob Kevoian]

I always think it's because we have to work. You know, the average sheep's got nothing to do. Eat, poop and mount on, you know, Molly, the sheep over there. We got to come into work, go to the coffee room.

[Chick McGee]

Hang on. In this scenario, your female sheep is named Molly.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Right.

[Bob Kevoian]

I'm just saying we're busy doing stuff.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

These animals have nothing else to do.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Have a little snack.

[Tom Griswold]

They're also not worried about feelings and attraction, necessarily.

[Chick McGee]

And child support and consent.

[Bob Kevoian]

I forgot about that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, they really don't worry too much about that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Important factor there.

[Tom Griswold]

I've seen a squirrel chasing another squirrel.

[Bob Kevoian]

No.

[Christy Lee]

Chill. Right. Any sheep.

[Bob Kevoian]

And you're at the zoo, right? All. All the time.

[Tom Griswold]

You must see animals banging all the time.

[Bob Kevoian]

A lot of action there.

[Tom Griswold]

Lucky.

[Christy Lee]

Hello, baby tortoise.

[Chick McGee]

The other day having sex?

[Christy Lee]

No, we just had one.

[Chick McGee]

Hatch, really hatch. They give. They're alive. Baby, stop. Don't talk. Down.

[Christy Lee]

They come out of eggs.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, well, I. This is all very exciting. Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

Will you allow me to go to the zoo and make love to an animal?

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Bob Kevoian]

God.

[Tom Griswold]

What about one of the dying ones?

[Christy Lee]

Well, there went my board of directors.

[Chick McGee]

Hi, Chrissy. Have a seat. Thanks for coming in.

[Bob Kevoian]

Look, we were listening. No, no, no.

[Tom Griswold]

Actually.

[Bob Kevoian]

Actually, don't bother sitting.

[Chick McGee]

Here's the thing.

[Bob Kevoian]

You're not going to be here long. This is not going to take much time.

[Chick McGee]

We thought we. You know, at first we were. Yeah. Honestly, we were all repulsed. But then we thought, hey, this sounds like a fun idea.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, hey. One of the monkeys that escaped from a truck that crashed on a rural Mississippi highway earlier this year. Remember that?

[Chick McGee]

It's got to be Mickey Dolan's the only one left.

[Christy Lee]

This one now has a permanent home at a New Jersey wildlife refuge. The little monkey goes by the name Forest. He's a young adult. Reese's maa.

[Chick McGee]

He.

[Bob Kevoian]

Never stop being funny.

[Christy Lee]

It's maa macaque. What did I say?

[Chick McGee]

Maa. Pretty plain about it.

[Tom Griswold]

Like an Irishman or a pirate.

[Christy Lee]

He was among 21 monkeys being transported for biomedical research when the truck overturned on Interstate 59 back in October. He managed to escape the crash site and spent about a week on the ran on the lam before he was captured.

[Bob Kevoian]

Interspecies.

[Christy Lee]

Thank you.

[Chick McGee]

That poor lamb.

[Christy Lee]

This forest little guy was relocated to the nonprofit Popcorn Park Animal Refuge.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I bet the animals love Popcorn Park.

[Chick McGee]

Hi.

[Tom Griswold]

Welcome to Popcorn Park.

[Christy Lee]

What a silly name for animal rescue.

[Tom Griswold]

Animals like dropped popcorn, man.

[Chick McGee]

They do.

[Bob Kevoian]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Birds.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I like drop popcorn. I know.

[Tom Griswold]

That's why I got fired as an usher.

[Bob Kevoian]

What kind of monkey is this?

[Christy Lee]

A rhesus macaque.

[Bob Kevoian]

Rhesus, okay. Yeah, they like popcorn and they like Reese's beef. Reese's Peanut Butter.

[Chick McGee]

You got chocolate on.

[Christy Lee]

Apparently, Forrest has acclimated himself to his new surroundings.

[Bob Kevoian]

My knife in your throat or chocolate on my banana? What is it again?

[Chick McGee]

Jesus.

[Christy Lee]

Caretakers.

[Chick McGee]

If anyone knows the real. Just. Just go out and have a great weekend. You don't have to listen to the rest of the show. It's okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you hear what he said? I. I don't know the reference. I can guess as to how awful it was.

[Chick McGee]

Wait till I tell you when the commercial started.

[Christy Lee]

He liked it. Look at him. He's turning red.

[Chick McGee]

I just thought of that.

[Tom Griswold]

Tom enjoys being inappropriate.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah. We all lose our jobs and then.

[Chick McGee]

It'Ll be you know what? So I don't know why Chick said that.

[Bob Kevoian]

I have a question. Is there still one monkey missing?

[Christy Lee]

I think so.

[Chick McGee]

They fall out of bed. One of the monkeys roll out of bed.

[Tom Griswold]

Cut to that monkey on a beach with sunglasses, getting a second daiquiri handed to him.

[Chick McGee]

Living the hot Sunglasses. Yep. Love it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Calmly eating a sandwich at McDonald's. A cop comes up. Take off that mask. So we gotta find the last monkey.

[Christy Lee]

Well, let's see if they found the.

[Bob Kevoian]

Okay, okay.

[Christy Lee]

I'll do that during the break. You do whatever.

[Bob Kevoian]

Right now. I want to talk about this, I think is one of the great gifts for the holiday season. I am not kidding. I love this thing. We got one right over there. I've already. I've already got several of these. I just think they're the best. They're called or.

[Chick McGee]

Now tell me what you do, Tom. You go home and you load pictures and what happens?

[Bob Kevoian]

Well, you don't have to be. You don't have to have the thing sitting next to you.

They live in a different state. They'll show up right there. There's a photograph right now. That's Josh kissing me in the head. And it's happening, happening.

There's a truck for little Billy? And a dolly for Molly dear?

[Tom Griswold]

But you ain't getting diddly squat?

[Bob Kevoian]

Because you really screwed up this year.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, the winter fields are white with snow?

[Bob Kevoian]

And the lights are shining bright? And the wee little heads tucked up in beds. Dream of sugar plums this night you.

[Chick McGee]

May dream of big red apples and.

[Bob Kevoian]

Candy canes so near. But you ain't getting diddly squat. Cause you're really screwed up this year. When your mother asked you to wash the dishes?

[Tom Griswold]

[Bob Kevoian]

So it's que sera dog face Hope.

[Tom Griswold]

No, you ain't get diddly squat.

[Chick McGee]

Cause you're really screwed up.

Oh, you're really screwed up.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, you're really screwed up this year.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey, Haywood Banks, one of the true classics standard now. He'll be at the old theater in Lowell, Michigan coming up Saturday night for a great live show.

[Chick McGee]

Theater.

[Bob Kevoian]

All right. Seats are old. That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

I remember.

[Bob Kevoian]

I've been here sitting my old ass. Young punks out there cameras And I.

[Tom Griswold]

Saw the Lemon Sisters.

[Chick McGee]

That's where I had matter.

[Bob Kevoian]

You don't applaud. You hold up a phone with a. I always take lighters. Do it the old fashioned way until.

[Chick McGee]

I burn down the old. There's no guidelines for seating anymore. Sad to see that go.

[Tom Griswold]

Boy sat me right next to her.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

I couldn't believe it.

[Bob Kevoian]

Your people like music too.

[Chick McGee]

I like you people much better than your people. What's wrong with you people? Stuff like that.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, it's time to do that. It's Christy Lee, news time. She's sitting over there at the Silac Insurance News. I think we've covered everything. Right.

[Christy Lee]

California officials warn against foraging wild mushrooms following a deadly poisoning outbreak.

[Bob Kevoian]

Somehow this is my fault.

[Chick McGee]

Every damn year.

[Christy Lee]

Health department said the Poison Control System has identified 21 cases of boy amatoxin poisoning. Is that how you'd say that?

[Bob Kevoian]

What? Amatoxin morons eating mushrooms.

[Christy Lee]

Likely caused by death cap mushrooms which are often mistaked for edible ones.

[Bob Kevoian]

So, Josh, these look good. Why do they call these death caps?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I think it.

[Chick McGee]

A lot of.

[Tom Griswold]

Fine grocery stores out there.

[Chick McGee]

So I was going to say that never happens with the stuff I get.

[Tom Griswold]

The Kroger and a lot of mushrooms. Fairly inexpensive.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You don't see that coupon.

[Bob Kevoian]

Hey. This week has come in. Hey, Jack. Guys see this in Kroger. They got the death caps 20% off with this coupon.

[Christy Lee]

Wet weather fuels the growth of death cap mushrooms. And warned against any wild mushroom foraging. To avoid confusion.

[Chick McGee]

And don't mushrooms. They look, you know, like they should be erotic. Right.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you trade small oranges for this particular kind of mushroom? I think that would be death caps for cuties does anyone get it? Chick. I'm a fan.

[Bob Kevoian]

I will and say that I'm proud that I was here to observe that joke.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

Death caps. Did you just formulate that or was that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, that's. That is.

[Chick McGee]

Didn't you see him? He was sitting over. I thought he was going to the bathroom.

[Tom Griswold]

I smelled smoke.

[Chick McGee]

That is strong. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah. We used to always have that when that season arrived.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

They would always be the announcement. It was like a couple annual events. The first guy to fall through the ice in a snowmobile was kind of an annual. And then the first person to drop dead from eating the wrong mushroom.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Take the book with you.

[Bob Kevoian]

And by the way, aren't they often found in. In, like, cow pies and not always.

[Tom Griswold]

Truffles have something to do with pig crap, don't they?

[Christy Lee]

Truffles are in the ground.

[Tom Griswold]

Pigs find them.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

And dogs, because I'm a truffle hunter.

[Tom Griswold]

But you're right. There's some truffles, a fungi or something that isn't.

[Christy Lee]

It looks like poop.

[Bob Kevoian]

But I mean, how hungry. How hungry do you have to be? You're walking through the woods. I'm sort of hungry. Oh, wait a minute. There's a steaming pile of feces with a mushroom in it. I'll make a salad and have some of those. Yeah. So this is bad. Do they have, like, pictures of them and stuff of these wild mushrooms?

[Christy Lee]

I don't have a picture of them.

[Tom Griswold]

I bet you can go to the website.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. There are books out there.

[Chick McGee]

Like a skull and crossbones on the top.

[Bob Kevoian]

You said the death cap ones look an awful lot like another one.

[Christy Lee]

An edible one. Yes.

[Bob Kevoian]

Yeah, I.

[Chick McGee]

There lies the rub. Yeah.

[Bob Kevoian]

Why bother? Yeah, like you say, they got some really nice ones at Kroger.

[Tom Griswold]

They are hard to find. I mean, I wouldn't know a shitake from shinola.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, very good.

[Tom Griswold]

It's also very good.

[Chick McGee]

Hang on. We have that. Okay.

[Bob Kevoian]

That was very nice.

[Tom Griswold]

You're welcome.

[Bob Kevoian]

The Wild Mushrooms. Sounds like a jam bit band. Some. Some white guy with dreads is the lead singer.

[Chick McGee]

Will you forgive Adam Duritz for having dreads?

[Tom Griswold]

Do you like mushrooms? Just normally.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh, big fan.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Won't eat them. I love them, too.

[Chick McGee]

They're great. Time to get out of there.

[Tom Griswold]

Sauteed mushrooms with a steak. Hit me with this.

[Bob Kevoian]

Oh. Oh. Mushrooms on a pizza.
