[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Yeah. Well, we should. We'll have to dig up some. Sean Marco.

[Ace Cosby]

He is just so unique and funny.

[Chick McGee]

And would it be okay if one of the girls. One of the girls married to stand up? Would that be all right?

[Ace Cosby]

Who am I to judge?

[Chick McGee]

That's what I thought. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I got a pretty long list of eligible comedians.

[Ace Cosby]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

They're all eligible, I think.

[Ace Cosby]

Do they? Is a comedian better than a musician?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, they're both bad. And then when you put the combo together.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh God. Like you.

[Christy Lee]

Yo.

[Josh Arnold]

I forgot.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wow.

Was Pat's birthday yesterday?

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Well, happy birthday, Pat. I gotta frog.

[Chick McGee]

Forgot all about it.

[Christy Lee]

Put that Michael tired of the.

[Josh Arnold]

The old age joke cards, you know.

[Chick McGee]

I guess you gotta put it into your phone so your phone can make you look like your conscientious.

[Ace Cosby]

I remembered because your dad. My dad and you shared.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, same birthday.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, what'd you do for your dad for cheat code?

[Ace Cosby]

I thought about him.

[Chick McGee]

You thought about him?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You didn't Take him out to dinner.

[Ace Cosby]

No, I couldn't do that.

[Josh Arnold]

Think about me.

[Ace Cosby]

You would have been 88. I sent you a text.

[Tom Griswold]

Did. I know you did.

[Josh Arnold]

It was very sweet.

[Ace Cosby]

You're welcome.

[Josh Arnold]

It's a little mean, though. Christy sent a text to me. Happy birthday. Only five more.

[Ace Cosby]

I did.

[Christy Lee]

That is cruel.

[Tom Griswold]

Was that until your Social Security runs out?

[Christy Lee]

Did you know it was Pat's birthday yesterday?

[Tom Griswold]

Tom, I did not.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Yeah. This is.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, had I noted. I mean, if it were today, we'd have to get him a cake, but I. I know he was not very happy with the cake we got him. Last time it was on a Sunday.

[Chick McGee]

Well, you got all those. Do you know all the kids birthdays? That'd be tough, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I'd have to sit down and get a chart, but I could do it.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, you could probably ballpark the month, right?

[Chick McGee]

Seven.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I know. I know him, but it takes me a little time. That's. I'm. That's my greatest weakness. I can't remember anything. Calendar wise, schedule wise.

[Chick McGee]

Well, I don't know about you.

[Josh Arnold]

The greatest.

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

No. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

There may be more. That's true. It's not something I'm good at. Yeah. Remembering people's names, what they do. I didn't do any Christmas shop thing. Oh, Very busy weekend.

[Ace Cosby]

What you do?

[Tom Griswold]

I just did everything. I.

[Chick McGee]

Well, we. Weekends are. We know that. Weekends are brutal.

[Tom Griswold]

There. There was a lot of driving.

[Ace Cosby]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I did go see. I went to see the. The great Acapella band. Straight, no chaser.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, yeah. They are.

[Tom Griswold]

God, they are so much fun. That was great evening. So I. I can give you some of their schedule if you're a big fan. Highly recommended.

[Ace Cosby]

No holiday thing.

[Chick McGee]

So they don't have a band, do they? They just do it like Bobby McFerrin. All of them. Boop.

[Tom Griswold]

It's terrific.

[Chick McGee]

It's terrific.

[Tom Griswold]

They do a great job.

[Ace Cosby]

Take the kids. Do the girls like that.

[Tom Griswold]

One of them went, oh, okay. One of them passed because last year they didn't sing her favorite Christmas song.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I love. Man, that's a grudge.

[Josh Arnold]

And what is that? What is the favorite.

[Tom Griswold]

I couldn't get that out of her. All I know is she kept going. They didn't say. They didn't sing my favorite one.

[Christy Lee]

Why would I ever go again? She pronounced.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, that's good for her.

[Chick McGee]

That's the most Griswoldian thing I've ever heard.

[Tom Griswold]

She's only nine. She had various other things that she was going to be able to do.

[Ace Cosby]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

But, yeah, I just had a very busy weekend and this will be the weekend to get some shopping done. And I highly recommend if you're doing some online stuff, of which we would urge you to do a handful of things from various friends of the show. Oh, I did get my Omaha Steaks boxes all ordered and out.

[Christy Lee]

Well, that's good.

[Tom Griswold]

I think I've got them all done. I may have one more to go.

[Josh Arnold]

But maybe somebody's birthday. That would be nice.

[Tom Griswold]

You can't eat. You're a vegan.

[Ace Cosby]

Are you giving that up?

[Josh Arnold]

Jimmy eats it. But I'm fine, though. I'm just kidding.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, we do have probably the most unusual use of the word vegan in a headline coming up this morning. I'm quite astonished at that story. It involves violence, but is it okay.

[Chick McGee]

For vegans to indulge in oral pleasures?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, because it's kind of like.

[Tom Griswold]

Of course.

[Christy Lee]

I think so.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

It's not me.

[Chick McGee]

People are meat.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But they're, you know, that. Well, coming up, we actually have an interesting survey. Well, it's never nowhere to go there. I think the answer is of course.

[Dusty Slay]

Well, go ahead.

[Tom Griswold]

What do you got about it?

[Chick McGee]

Well, I'd ask you a first, and.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm saying sure, why not?

[Chick McGee]

You have a technique, though, you.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm not a vegan, so it's not applicable to me.

[Chick McGee]

Well, just in general, of course.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't ever discusses such. Okay, how about you go ahead, weigh in?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, I have an old whole setup. I have a chart, colored pencils, the whole thing.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, you got to get prepared.

[Chick McGee]

I got the protractor. I keep track of.

[Ace Cosby]

Protractor, huh?

[Chick McGee]

Angle, angles, angle of the dangle, you know, stuff like that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I see we do have vegan news, though, coming up for you. Pat, aren't you considering dropping this vegan thing in the new year?

[Josh Arnold]

No, I am not. We did not have that conversation. I may do a little switching up. I do have the Greek yogurt with my supplements. Tom went to his doctor, said all supplements are stupid.

[Tom Griswold]

No, he said you're. If you take a lot of vitamins, you're creating very expensive urine.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, I believe.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, Pat and I watch the same deficiency.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Chick McGee]

Pat and I watch what's the new Elton John documentary over the weekend. Separately, but together.

[Josh Arnold]

That is good.

[Chick McGee]

It's. It's a rough watch. He's.

[Josh Arnold]

He goes deep.

[Chick McGee]

Elton John is. He's getting up there, man. He can still play. Those fat little fingers can really joy in that, Doc.

[Christy Lee]

That was the problem. I had with that Rocket man movie, it was like there's not one ounce of happiness. You know what?

[Chick McGee]

Other than he brings his kids out at the last show at Dodger Stadium. And that was really nice. But, yeah, it's. Well, it's a. It's a dark story.

[Christy Lee]

How much different is it from Tantrums and Tiaras, whatever it's called?

[Josh Arnold]

It's quite a bit different. He goes into his past and.

[Chick McGee]

Wait, wait, I haven't seen Tantrums. I didn't. I wasn't recommended. No, that's fine.

[Christy Lee]

I didn't watch it as the man enjoyed life at all. Yeah. Okay, good. All right.

[Josh Arnold]

Great John Lennon stories and a great.

[Tom Griswold]

Video of John Lennon and backstage at.

[Josh Arnold]

Madison Square and singing.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, singing whatever. Get you through the night. Big hit. Big hit. Christy, you got a couple of interesting headlines over there to tease me with.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, I'll tease you all right. Have you went home during the holidays with your significant other or your girlfriend? Did you ever have sex in your childhood bedroom?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, when you go back home?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Interesting.

[Ace Cosby]

Well, we had a survey about that.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a really good question.

[Chick McGee]

I'd like to know how many people have their childhood bedroom available for them to go back to. Yeah, you gotta be a small percentage, you think? I think so.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, if you're. If you're 20, 22 years old, right out of college, isn't your room still intact?

[Ace Cosby]

Sure, that room is still intact. She's 22, so. Yeah, one.

[Chick McGee]

Well, but that's not the house she grew up in though, right?

[Ace Cosby]

She did a couple years. Well, you know, you're right.

[Chick McGee]

I just think that with the transient nature of everybody. I don't. I don't think I had dads. The Griswold homestead.

[Christy Lee]

I don't anybody have sex in their. The bedroom they grew up in before they moved out. Well, that would be 20 or whatever.

[Ace Cosby]

I wasn't of age. Are you kidding?

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Weren't there a lot of people in your house? Are you telling me you went back there with some ladies and.

[Christy Lee]

I still live there, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

When did you. Last week you moved out. When did that happen?

[Christy Lee]

When I was like. I didn't move out of my parents house until I was like 22.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, okay.

[Chick McGee]

No kid.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You'd entertain home games there.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You get a lot of hassle.

[Josh Arnold]

How'd you work that out?

[Christy Lee]

I. My room is in the basement.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, that is good.

[Christy Lee]

It was a little easier.

[Chick McGee]

Did you yell up the stairs, hey, ma, where's that meatloaf?

[Tom Griswold]

No, the door or something.

[Christy Lee]

I did not have a door. I didn't have a door into my room. So we were just careful, huh? It was late at night usually.

[Chick McGee]

So did voices carry noises?

[Christy Lee]

We had to do our best.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Was there any muffling with a sock or T shirt?

[Christy Lee]

No. I found I always assumed that put.

[Chick McGee]

This in your mouth, some careful muffling.

[Christy Lee]

Could easily turn into strangling.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, good. Right now I hope you have a door on your house. Just one way to keep your home safe. Another way is of course Simplisafe and Simplisafe.

[Ace Cosby]

And don't piss off a stripper. We got that coming.

[Tom Griswold]

And did you? There's something very unusual about this case and involves a stabbing. It reminds me, of course, of that great Barry Manilow song, Copacabana. Stabbing at an unusual strip club. Portland, Oregon is the place. But there's something about the club that is really, really unusual, which we'll be getting. Getting to shortly. Patty G has his guitar out. Perhaps as we review many of the things we learned last week, you can share us with a new tune.

[Christy Lee]

What are.

[Josh Arnold]

A new tune?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but.

[Chick McGee]

But I would love to hear a new tune right now. Yes, I will. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

He's already. Look at him grab that guitar.

[Tom Griswold]

Is this seasonal?

[Josh Arnold]

Very seasonal. It's. It's about an incident that we had that sort of changed things around here. I think that you'll enjoy this. I went to last year's office Christmas party. Got in an argument with Marty. I was on a bender. Made too many trips to the open bar. Guess what I got for Christmas, Christie.

[Ace Cosby]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

A warning from hr. They said I gave just too long of a hug, went outside a lot. Was I smoking drugs? No, I was peeing.

[Tom Griswold]

Christie.

[Josh Arnold]

Her boobs were pointy like a Christmas tree star. Guess what I got for Christmas? A warning from hr. I got a warning from HR this Christmas. I never should have been drinking eggnog two fisted. I have to be drug tested to remain a part of the workforce and take an anger management and sexual harassment course.

[Tom Griswold]

All true.

[Josh Arnold]

I got a warning from HR this Christmas. Oh. Now I'm on their rad and some kind of hit list. That's why this Tuesday's office Christmas party, there's no booze and we're having it at Arby's.

[Tom Griswold]

That's 98. True that. Wow.

[Chick McGee]

Good food there.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, the. The day of the drunken office Christmas party is kind of over.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, boy, we had some back in the day.

[Tom Griswold]

But the worst one we ever had. Let me see if you do.

[Josh Arnold]

I've heard stories.

[Ace Cosby]

There were a couple.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, by bad, I mean in with respect to being boring and awful. The worst one ever was the one they had in this building.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, that was bad.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, that was bad.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that was. You don't want to do that.

[Christy Lee]

You want to.

[Ace Cosby]

We've had couples breaking up. We've had people.

[Tom Griswold]

Chick got into a pushing match with a shoving match.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, it wasn't a fight. It was a shoving match.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, it was.

[Chick McGee]

He was pretty loaded. I was not. Which is the only way I'll fight somebody if they're drunk and I'm not.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And then we had that. We had one in which there was a woman screaming at her. Was that her husband?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, at the time it was her husband.

[Tom Griswold]

Can't keep track. Okay. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

I think he threw a bottle of pills at him at one point. Remember that?

[Chick McGee]

I think I was at the bottom of that one, too. She was telling me how much she loved the Bob and Tom show. And I think he heard her and she. He got mad.

[Ace Cosby]

He worked for another age.

[Chick McGee]

She was on another show.

[Tom Griswold]

But there was. There was the one at the really cool seafood place where a certain person.

[Chick McGee]

I. Oh, you mean you.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, no, no, no. I was walking out at the time, walking out of the building, and it was great restaurant. I forget what it was called. And one of the. The woman heaved a bottle of pills at her husband as he was trying to drive off without her.

[Ace Cosby]

Ah.

[Tom Griswold]

I went as being a gentleman. I was courteously. And I picked up the pills, took a quick glance.

[Ace Cosby]

Nothing you'd take. So gave them back.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, nothing I would do was I wanted to have my horse get knocked out.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really?

[Tom Griswold]

Quite, quite.

[Chick McGee]

What about the holiday party? Were you. Someone had told you something in confidence and you announced it to the room?

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

That was a good one.

[Tom Griswold]

That wasn't a holiday party.

[Chick McGee]

That wasn't. That was just together. Are you sure?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that was just lunch at the. That was at the place where they cooked the food right there on the table.

[Ace Cosby]

Teppanyaki. Is that what that's called?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah. I didn't realize that. That was not. I was just saying I was sorry to hear about this guy getting divorced, which I didn't realize he hadn't told anybody yet.

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Ace Cosby]

Well, now he's left the building.

[Tom Griswold]

It's all. It's all fine.

[Chick McGee]

But one of your noted phrases that you insist is true about yourself is no one can keep a secret like I can.

[Tom Griswold]

Correct.

[Chick McGee]

That's not true at all.

[Tom Griswold]

He didn't tell me. It was not. He said. He came up to me and said, I bello, I'm getting divorced. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Well, yeah, but information like that don't you think in your mind you don't you immediately want to run and tell somebody else? I don't think that's.

[Tom Griswold]

It was a big group and I wanted to open them up. Open them up maybe. Hey, this guy's getting this guy single. Single ladies, go for it. Yeah. All the single ladies. Want a piece of that?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

You know what? He won the lottery of life. He's got a very happy life.

[Tom Griswold]

So I helped couple kids and I helped.

[Chick McGee]

And you're taking it. He's taking credit. Nobody does it like you, bud.

[Tom Griswold]

Over the weekend, among other things, I was talking to some people and they were talking about cigarette marketing back in the day and they didn't, they didn't believe me when I told them about the territon. I'd rather fight than switch with the black eye. The lady with the black eye. So that's the one of the great things about contemporary culture. You just grab your phone, ask Mr. Google about it and there, there's the.

[Ace Cosby]

Picture and there you are proven right again.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. Yeah, that's, that's really fun. It's one of my favorite things right now. It's a time. That was a good new song, Pat.

[Ace Cosby]

Thanks.

[Tom Griswold]

And this, this is the big week for holiday parties. There were a lot of them last.

[Ace Cosby]

Few days you go to. Have you been to any Christmas parties yet?

[Tom Griswold]

Uh huh. Been to a couple of them. They were very, very a lot of fun. And then we have our office Christmas party as you mentioned, tomorrow during the day.

[Josh Arnold]

Looking forward to it.

[Tom Griswold]

Good food and companionship, camaraderie. Laughs.

[Christy Lee]

It is nice.

[Tom Griswold]

Do we uninvite a couple of people?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, you want to?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Could we do that? Oh, I don't know. I'm sorry. Let's just move forward here. We have, we have.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, if you want to know, Sunday night game last night, in case you missed it, Green Bay packers ended the Seahawks four game winning streak 30 to 13. Win over Seattle in Seattle last night. And Geno Smith knee injury, he did not return. So two games on Monday Night Football tonight, they're doing that to us again. I'm not sure what they're trying to inches toward, but two games pretty much at the same time. The Bears and the at The Vikings at 8 o'clock tonight Eastern and then the Falcons at the Raiders at 8:30 tonight. So one's on ESPN, ESPN and ESPN plus one's on ABC.

[Tom Griswold]

That's interesting.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know what they're trying to do, but there you go. And Saturday games start this Saturday too as we do. At the end of the NFL season, they have Saturday games. So you had the college football playoffs on Saturday and NFL, a lot of football at the same time.

[Tom Griswold]

And it's time now to review some of the things we learned last week.

[Chick McGee]

You need that picture in picture, Tom. You know how to do that on your home, your tv?

[Tom Griswold]

I have no idea.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I didn't think so. Time now for things we learned on Friday. Is that right? Whole weekend to think about it.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, the big news was Chick McGee had an incident.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, with the trimmer?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, with the beard trimmer. Now, have you shaved since?

[Chick McGee]

I have not.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. He.

[Chick McGee]

That's one of the best things about a trimmer incident. You don't have to shave for a couple weeks.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. But you. You pretty much took your beard completely off.

[Chick McGee]

Pretty much, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So now it's just kind of a five o'clock shadow thing.

[Chick McGee]

The Don Johnson thing you get.

[Tom Griswold]

You're getting into the Miami Vice.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, the stubble. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. We celebrated the great Welsh singer Tom Jones half birthday and were able to enjoy a little bit of a Tom Jones music.

[Chick McGee]

Has anyone told you the negative response we get when you play Tom Jones?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't care.

[Josh Arnold]

Copious amounts of emails we receive.

[Ace Cosby]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

No, no. Nobody laughs harder, especially that second one because I know it's going to be the downfall of the show. And you.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

What's your stance toward it?

[Tom Griswold]

We found out that Arby's has served something called the meat mountain.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Off menu.

[Christy Lee]

We saw a picture. It looked insane.

[Chick McGee]

It didn't look. It's got. It's got chicken nuggets on it or.

[Ace Cosby]

Whatever they call their chicken mouth around that.

[Christy Lee]

I think.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

That you gotta open. Face it. I think.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

It looks nuts.

[Chick McGee]

You gotta spread it out on a plate.

[Christy Lee]

What would it cost? It's gotta be 16.

[Chick McGee]

It's gotta be.

[Tom Griswold]

We had a guy catching a 10 foot great white shark fishing off the shores of Amelia island. Mm.

[Ace Cosby]

But 10 footer?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. That's pretty big. It kind of. And kind of scary. And I asked Josh, how do you get the hook out? Because they put it back in the ocean. They release. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

You just cut that line, that hook will make its way.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. He's on his own so that that shark is free to lop the leg off of another surfer. We. This is interesting, Christy. Well, we found out that according to a recent survey, single ladies are happier than single men when just the opposite sort of is the assumption. Yeah, but the assumption is so strong.

[Christy Lee]

I doubt that survey something's off there, I think. Yes. Yes. I don't believe it. Well, there's no way.

[Ace Cosby]

I know. Do you think maybe my anecdotal research.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that the word anecdotal?

[Ace Cosby]

Anecdotal. A lot of men who say, lose a spouse or get divorced get married very quickly after, whereas women tend not to do that. I think men like to be.

[Tom Griswold]

Either they either get married or they get a cyber, you know.

[Reno Collier]

Yeah, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I didn't consider that group of people. I was considering younger, single, not yet married people. People. Oh, so that's. That was unfair for me. Yeah, that. That makes sense, Christy.

[Tom Griswold]

But is there a song, a celebratory song like what is it? Who does all the single ladies?

[Ace Cosby]

Beyonce.

[Josh Arnold]

Beyonce.

[Tom Griswold]

Is there a version of that for the guys? Pat, this might be your thing.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I don't think there is.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe you should write it because. Write what you know is right.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, I understand what you're saying. Because it's. Single men at that age seem to be very happy.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Men who have never been married, totally fine.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. And maybe the married men they interviewed were doing it in front of their wives. No, no, no. Survey taker. I'd be. I'd be miserable. I don't know. I don't know what I'd do with all this money in that empty garage that could hold a cyber truck.

[Chick McGee]

Do you guys think the 20 somethings now are more mentally healthy and happier by themselves in general?

[Christy Lee]

I think they are more comfortable by themselves. I do not think that they're happier or healthy health. Are mentally healthier.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I don't think anybody is.

[Ace Cosby]

Covid really did a number on people.

[Tom Griswold]

I think the Internet did a number on everybody.

[Ace Cosby]

Well, there's that too.

[Tom Griswold]

Mental health. This was a great story from Greg Warren. I really loved this. His grandmother had an interesting United States government job involving spy maps and all kinds of.

[Ace Cosby]

Department of Defense.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Department of Defense. And she would bring them home and use them to wrap Christmas presents. So as he would, you know, open up his present from his grandmother, the envelope with the five dollar bill on the nice sweater. He would see the bombing sites near Moscow that we were going to use to take out the nuclear. Nuclear facilities. Very interesting. The big news. I hope it happened. Josh was anticipating getting a caulking gun. You had purchased caulk and didn't realize you had to have a special, special gun to put that. I want to know, did it arrive.

[Chick McGee]

How long you stood there with the sleeve of squeezing it until you got something out?

[Christy Lee]

Not that long. But it just wasn't coming out in, like, a good way, like, and, And I couldn't get it. And I was like, oh, wait a sec. I couldn't get, like, into my chimney.

[Tom Griswold]

See the car, the car comes with these cartridges. It slips into a little. They call it a caulking gun. And you didn't have it, of course.

[Christy Lee]

No, I didn't have the caulking because.

[Tom Griswold]

In the state, there's a three day waiting period.

[Christy Lee]

That's exactly right. I got it.

[Tom Griswold]

And it's a terrific background check. And they found out you were able to handle a caulking gun.

[Christy Lee]

So I was able to be in odd angles and get it. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, good.

[Tom Griswold]

You got it all done.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Chimney good now, huh? Can you do a fire yet or does it have to dry for a while?

[Christy Lee]

No, no, you do a fire immediately. It helps cure the. The caulk.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, big news coming up. We didn't talk about this yet, but coffee prices are about to skyrocket. Is that right across the board.

[Ace Cosby]

Why?

[Tom Griswold]

A combination of things including bad coffee season. Oh, okay. For the crop and. Yeah. So get ready. Brace yourself. I'll get you more information about that.

[Ace Cosby]

But that's without it.

[Tom Griswold]

Coffee. Yeah, I'm not talking to Christy. Could you ask her to leave, please?

[Chick McGee]

You could live without coffee.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, Just do tea.

[Chick McGee]

I don't have. Yeah, yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

I don't. I don't.

[Chick McGee]

I don't care for coffee all that much.

[Ace Cosby]

I don't drink it at home very often at all.

[Christy Lee]

I drink a lot of it. And yeah, this will affect.

[Tom Griswold]

So me and you can do the show.

[Ace Cosby]

Then you make it by the pot. Or do you have like a Keurig at home?

[Christy Lee]

I have a Keurig at home.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't. Because coffee is out there. I have a new place I'm going, by the way, I've added another. Oh, yeah. It's very nice.

[Christy Lee]

Cool.

[Chick McGee]

I still find it just puzzling that you are one of the people that came under Starbucks spell when this first started happening with the coffee places.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but I typically. When I'm.

[Chick McGee]

I don't remember if you even drank coffee before Starbucks started to be everywhere. I don't think you did.

[Tom Griswold]

But I don't. I typically go to mom and pop places.

[Ace Cosby]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

The only reason I go to Starbucks here. It's the only. There are no mom and pop places anywhere near where we're sitting right now.

[Josh Arnold]

Coffee has gotten.

[Christy Lee]

There were.

[Josh Arnold]

Even your gas stations have their own grinding coffee now.

[Ace Cosby]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

You'll find.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, gas station. There's one that convenience store who you can kick up the caffeine and that. That.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, whoa.

[Chick McGee]

In that one mix. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Every. Everybody is up to their coffee game. McDonald's coffee is terrific.

[Chick McGee]

The one with the most caffeine is the colon squeezer. Tom, maybe you've heard about that. You. Immediately.

[Tom Griswold]

Right away, right away. Can I get that for my dogs? We had a. We learned about the cockerel.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Which is what they call a.

[Ace Cosby]

A young rooster.

[Tom Griswold]

A young rooster. And a guy was actually fined quite a bit because he had all these roosters that were crowing at 3 in the morning. And the neighbors were all furious. The HOA finally had to step in.

[Ace Cosby]

I think we have HOAs in London probably.

[Tom Griswold]

I guess they have them everywhere.

[Ace Cosby]

Sure.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. I wonder what they call them though. Yeah, something they don't pronounce the H. The Ombudsman's Neighborhood.

[Tom Griswold]

I did watch A Little Bit of Love, actually, which is kind of a great. Kind of a Christmas tradition.

[Ace Cosby]

Yes, Great, great movie.

[Tom Griswold]

Watching it with my 11 year old daughter and then I kind of forgot about a couple of.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh my gosh.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

When he goes to America.

[Chick McGee]

The adult. The adult actors scene. Martin Freeman and.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I love that actor. The guy that goes to America.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

She been in anything else lately?

[Chick McGee]

I don't think he is like a major star in England. He's been.

[Christy Lee]

I saw. I saw that movie in the theater. Went, oh, I didn't care for that very much. And now I'm gonna have to watch I Contend. That's one of the most overrated movies. And so I need to watch it this week and decide if I've changed my mind.

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

You know, there are some excellent little vignettes and scenes.

[Christy Lee]

It's just. No, the guy who wrote and directed it I was a big fan of. And then I went, oh, this is the worst thing he's ever made.

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, compared to Notting Hill and Four Weddings and a Funeral?

[Ace Cosby]

Mitchell cd? I cry like a baby.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, come on. That is.

[Christy Lee]

No, there's gotta. It's. I'm sure it's over sentimental and Rowan.

[Chick McGee]

Atkinson is the clerk.

[Christy Lee]

Old or whatever. Yeah, I'll have to give it another.

[Chick McGee]

That trope.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, well, I will give it another watch. I wanted to love it.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Oh, we had a funny story about a postal worker.

[Chick McGee]

I've never seen Notting Hill. Should I watch that?

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's great.

[Ace Cosby]

Julia Roberts. Is that the one where she's in the book?

[Tom Griswold]

And did you. I'm sorry, I. Did you ever see the sequel Hugh grant in Paddington 2.

[Chick McGee]

I've never seen Paddington 2.

[Tom Griswold]

Still, Paddington 2 is great. It's one of my favorite movies of all time.

[Chick McGee]

I just saw the scene from the Nick Cage movie, the Unbearable Weight of Talent or whatever.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

When they decide that the greatest movie ever made was Paddington 2.

[Christy Lee]

I love it.

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah. We told you about this one.

[Josh Arnold]

They're in the car talking about it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's right. Oh, I love that movie. But I. And Hugh Grant's terrific in it.

[Ace Cosby]

I love Hugh Grant.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, a couple of other things. We had a really funny story about a guy that works for the post office that apparently wasn't delivering all the mail, took a credit card, allegedly, and took his mom shopping. And they've got video of him. Got a hand to the guy. This is taking his mom out there.

[Christy Lee]

Is something sweet about that. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, sure. I don't know what the circumstances were. Poor guy. Probably rough times now. But right now, I want to tell you about rough times because how many days were left till Christmas? Christie?

[Ace Cosby]

Well, today's the 16th, so nine.

[Tom Griswold]

Greetings, Chick McGee. Notice Josh Arnold is right next door to me sitting at the Steven Singer Jewelers Sidekick chair. Christy Lee is across the way.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, I am.

[Tom Griswold]

She is at the SILEC insurance news desk. We'll be checking in with Christy as we sing. FA la la la la. Patty G's already entertained us with a brand new song, new kind.

[Josh Arnold]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you getting yourself booked for 2025? Are you going to be out and about?

[Josh Arnold]

My back is so good right now. It's a pleasure being on stage. There's no pain. It's a great time to be alive. I'm going out big time. 2020.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Josh Arnold]

Not even joking.

[Christy Lee]

World's gonna see Pat. Oh, boy.

[Josh Arnold]

I'll be out there.

[Chick McGee]

Hot dog.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Josh Arnold]

I got a kid to send to college, so I'm gonna be out there a lot.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, well, good.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know, but what grade, what.

[Tom Griswold]

Grades he in now?

[Josh Arnold]

He's in the eighth grade.

[Ace Cosby]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Josh Arnold]

He's going to high school next year.

[Ace Cosby]

Wow.

[Josh Arnold]

Crazy.

[Chick McGee]

Hard to believe.

[Tom Griswold]

Now we'll check in the sporting scene over there with Chick McGee. What's going on?

[Chick McGee]

Sunday night game. Jordan Love. They call him the Love Boat. No, they don't. They don't. They don't call him. They should. He throws two touchdown passes the Romeo Dobbs and the Green Bay packers. And Seattle's four game winning streak 30 to 13 in Seattle Seahawks lost quarterback Geno Smith to a knee entry. Josh Jacobs ran for 94 yards and a touchdown for the Packers. They've won eight of 10. Jacobs 136 yards from scrimmage. Brandon McManus kicked three field goals. And the big game of the day yesterday, more or less, Josh Allen. A lot of people said it was the preview of the Super Bowl. The Bills and the Lions in Detroit. Josh Allen ran for two scores in the first quarter and throws for two touchdown passes in the second half. The Bills win 48, 42 over the Detroit Lions. The AFC east champion Bills have won eight of nine games and according to Scoragami. Do you. Are you aware of Scorgami, Tom?

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

It's some sort of online site. It's on.

[Tom Griswold]

I thought they folded Twitter.

[Chick McGee]

It's. I know they're on Twitter. I'm not sure if they're on Instagram. Not. I can't imagine they wouldn't be. They keep track of NFL final scores. And the 48, 42 final score in the NFL had never happened before yesterday. Weird, all these. And they think. I think they have over 10, 50 different distinct scores. See, this is the kind of thing he loves. Look at him. He's fascinated. 1050 different and distinctive scores over the years, and they keep track.

[Christy Lee]

It's kind of interesting just because none of us batted an eye when you said 48 to 42.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Scorgami. They.

[Tom Griswold]

This is cool. It's like when they discover a new prime number and you go, why? Never had. Really had a chance to use that one.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Although it's. It's actually the. The. The current level of wealth of both Elon and.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Full of others and. Well, you know, that number of billions is a prime number.

[Chick McGee]

Here we go. Buffalo. Yeah. 48, 42 over Detroit. The 1,090th unique final score in NFL history. There you go. Of course, they have 1710 all the time. You know, scores like that.

[Tom Griswold]

That's really interesting.

[Chick McGee]

Is it really?

[Tom Griswold]

I think so.

[Christy Lee]

Now, that's really interesting.

[Chick McGee]

I find it really interesting that you think this is really interesting. Yeah, that's interesting.

[Tom Griswold]

How'd they get that score?

[Chick McGee]

What do you mean? They've scored touchdowns and field goals and all sorts of stuff. What are you talking about?

[Tom Griswold]

But 48 and a 42 aren't really unusual numbers, are they, in a football game?

[Chick McGee]

Well, evidently they are, because when they're.

[Tom Griswold]

Together, they are unique. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

I enjoyed it. Thank you for doing that.

[Christy Lee]

I think.

[Tom Griswold]

Boy, does Scoragami also do this for other sports.

[Chick McGee]

As far as I know, just the football.

[I]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I mean other sports are only. I mean, I guess basketball maybe.

[Chick McGee]

I can't imagine Major League Baseball doesn't have some sort of thing much like this because. Well, it says Scoragami. It doesn't. Well, this does NFL Scorigami. So maybe I can't imagine the Major League Baseball. They're stat heavy. I don't know why they wouldn't have something like this because I. Or maybe Scoragami keeps track of Major League Baseball scores too.

[Christy Lee]

Oh maybe. But there can't be that many rare baseball scores unless we're talking, you know, 61 to 5. Right.

[Tom Griswold]

But let never get right. But lately you'll notice when. If you listen to any play by a play, these guys are obviously handed, you know, some intern hands in the thing. Oh, this is the first time in the last 17 years that. Yeah, some unbelievably weird stat that a team wearing gray has had a guy wearing two different colored socks on a Tuesday. Really?

[Chick McGee]

Well, actually Scorigami did an update on their Twitter with two minutes to go in the fourth quarter. It was 48, 35 Buffalo. And they said this game has an 18.86% chance of ending in Scoragami, which is what they call a score that has never been recorded before. The most likely Scorigami. That might happen. 48, 42. And that's exactly how it ended.

[Tom Griswold]

So some accountant completed in his pants.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, well, that's why you're making fun of yourself. You find this. You find this fascinating.

[Tom Griswold]

I do.

[Christy Lee]

Boy, scoring poor score Commie. They. The 10 people that worked there were like. Oh man. Well, no one can do this.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

That was just a closet with an AI in it. Yeah. Because. Thank you, man.

[Chick McGee]

Good job everybody.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

There's no. How are they gonna come. A computer can't replace a. Well, yeah, maybe.

[Christy Lee]

Maybe it can't follow us on a.

[Tom Griswold]

Hell of a Christmas party. Yeah. I'm not expecting you to know this. I just. Just. You might offhand maybe. Maybe Ace will know.

[Chick McGee]

Here he comes. One of his wonderful questions in. I don't know if anybody. Many people are left or right handed at work, at Scorgami. I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

No, that would be fair. The. In your memory at least. What is the largest number of points that an NFL team has scored in a regular season game?

[Chick McGee]

Regular season game?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. What would that. What do you think?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Would it be.

[Christy Lee]

Have we gotten into triple numbers ever?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I think There was a playoff game that ended up 73, 14 or something. And that maybe that was a regular season game because you're going to love this. Sam Huff got traded from the Giants. Lombardi went and asked him to come out of retirement and play for the Redskins.

[Tom Griswold]

So he left in a huff.

[Chick McGee]

He did leave in a huff. And they were running up the score on the Giants. And Sam Huff wanted to do that. So that's how it got to be. That's great.

[Tom Griswold]

That's interesting.

[Chick McGee]

Another great story he likes.

[Tom Griswold]

I think it's fascinating. That was the game, famous game where the guy, they wouldn't let the guy in that had the fence, though, the guy in with the D. Not.

[Chick McGee]

That didn't happen at all.

[Ace Cosby]

That little offense that makes all the difference.

[Tom Griswold]

How do you get that fence in? I can't even get it. Get a personable. Coming up, we have O.J. simpson's porno collection.

[Chick McGee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Christy Lee at the SILAC news desk.

[Ace Cosby]

Hi, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, there's Pat Godwin. Hey, there's Josh Arnold at the I Hate Steven Singer sidekick chair.

[Christy Lee]

Speaking of old, old Stephen, he's a jeweler you can trust because he stands behind his jewelry with the best guarantee in the business. He guarantees. That's his famous slogan. A full 100 day. 100 money back guarantee. Steven Singer Jewelers. I hate stevensinger.com.

[Tom Griswold]

You got time. You got time.

[Chick McGee]

There's Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee. Hello. And here's. Here's Tom Griswold.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you very much. Check? No, we're gonna pass it right back to you at the sports desk. NFL a twin bill this evening.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Two Monday night games tonight. We'll get to that. But Patrick Mahomes yesterday threw two touchdown passes before leaving with an ankle injury. Rot row. Xavier Worthy ran for scoring. The Chiefs beat the Browns in Cleveland 21 to 7. Holmes left in the fourth quarter after he had his ankle. Got rolled up on X rays after the game were negative. They're obviously going to check it again today. And he's day to day. The Browns had six turnovers and Carson Wentz for the Chiefs in a quarterback at the end of the game. Isn't that interesting?

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

Six turnovers. Reminds me of a continental breakfast.

[Chick McGee]

And maybe we have that Indianapolis Colts Jonathan Taylor problem yesterday during the game. And also Bengal safety Jordan Battle thought he had a 61 yard fumble return for a touchdown until he dropped the ball just shy of crossing the goal line.

[Christy Lee]

I can't help but love when this happens.

[Chick McGee]

We've all seen this happen and it certainly does. Cincinnati goes on to win the game, by the way, over the Titans. And Indianapolis running back Jonathan Taylor had a 41 yard touchdown run on the board until replays. There he is right now heading toward the goal line. Replays plainly show that he drops the ball before cross crossing again.

[Christy Lee]

I yeah. This is my favorite.

[Chick McGee]

The Broncos outscored Indy 24 nothing after this play. And they go on to win 3113 idiots over.

[Christy Lee]

You act like you've been there before. This doesn't happen.

[Ace Cosby]

Wasn't that the second time? Yeah. Over the weekend that that happened. Another game a guy did the exact same thing.

[Chick McGee]

The Jordan Battle interception. The Cincinnati he dropped it before he crossed the goal line as well.

[Tom Griswold]

Hang out of that ball.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I'm having trouble paying attention because I'm. I Chick turned me onto this NFL scorigami and I'm. This chart is just so much fun. Oh, this is great.

[Ace Cosby]

What have you learned?

[Tom Griswold]

I've got to put it away. I've learned that I can't pay attention to anything else if I'm trying to figure this out. Once again. Scoragami. There was an incident over the weekend in which the was it the Detroit Buffalo score, that was 48.

[Chick McGee]

40. 48, 42. That score had never been existed before and until yesterday score that's.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, really. Moment.

[Chick McGee]

Right, Right. The score never been. Never happened before in the NFL.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

And there's a website called. Called Scoragami, full of hopeless losers who keep track of scores.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I think it's so.

[Christy Lee]

It's really exciting.

[Chick McGee]

Tom has captured it and we've talked about it before, but today he's decided to really take a hold of.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, the name like Scoragami, once again. I thought it had folded. You see the. Yeah. I'll have to put this away because I'm gonna. I'll. I'll come and visit it later. It looks like. Very interesting.

[Chick McGee]

So what are you finding interesting?

[Ace Cosby]

Can you look up?

[Chick McGee]

I don't understand.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that if you had said the score, what was it? 48, 42.

[Chick McGee]

Huh.

[Tom Griswold]

I wouldn't have thought that that was all that unusual. But it is. Never happened. Never happened before, but.

[Chick McGee]

You gotta be kidding me.

[Tom Griswold]

Most points ever scored an NFL game is on there.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, what was that?

[Chick McGee]

Well, what is it?

[Tom Griswold]

You were right. It was so good. I put. I put the thing away because I would. I couldn't stop looking at it. There's so many interesting stats there.

[Chick McGee]

Bears in the.

[Tom Griswold]

How can a team score one point?

[Ace Cosby]

How can they score one?

[Tom Griswold]

Is it a point? Like a fumble on a.

[Chick McGee]

An extra point?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, something like that. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

The Bears, the Vikings to not. And at 8:00 Eastern, then at 8:30 Eastern, Falcons and the Raiders. One's on ABC and the others are on ESPN and ESPN plus if you'd like to watch those tonight there. I don't know why they're telling us there are two Monday Night Football games on now. I guess that's a thing.

[Christy Lee]

Ace, do you and Kostaki have money on this game? We do not. Maybe you could bet something with him.

[Tom Griswold]

That'd be fun.

[Christy Lee]

Maybe an All Pro line shirt or a. Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Max Crosby's out for the rest of the year with that injury, so.

[Christy Lee]

Or an Ace Cosby Sharpie.

[Chick McGee]

Raiders are getting sick. Six points at home. There you go.

[Christy Lee]

They'll get it done. Yeah, I like that confidence.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, they're gonna. And they're gonna be home during the playoffs. Not gonna be playing. They're just gonna be home.

[Christy Lee]

Do we know that for sure?

[Chick McGee]

Oh. So Gardner.

[Tom Griswold]

Gardner Minshew was sadly injured. My favorite NFL player. Aces. Somehow that's my fault. I just wanted to hurt your feelings.

[Chick McGee]

The Las Vegas Raiders are 2 and 11 as I'm talking to you right now.

[Christy Lee]

Well, there's a chance, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Mathematically select nuclear strikes. Okay. All right.

[Christy Lee]

They should have beat the Chiefs.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, well, they. They count. They count. Should haves in the standings.

[Josh Arnold]

Would have been 3 and 10.

[Christy Lee]

By the way, a big, big sporting news over the weekend if you happen to catch them. Hallmark movie new this year. Touchdown Christmas, or whatever the hell it was called.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

With Mama Kelsey.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. If you missed it, it's okay. This Friday, they are showing the extended cut.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wow. Wow.

[Ace Cosby]

That's on the Hallmark channel.

[Christy Lee]

That's right.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, boy.

[Christy Lee]

So who knows if it'll be more Mama Kelsey, more Andy Reed. He showed up at one point.

[Chick McGee]

Who's to say Andy Reid's making movies now? Well, that's great.

[Tom Griswold]

What's. And we don't know the title.

[Christy Lee]

I think it's like Touchdown. I don't. I don't remember it. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

This is kind of a knockoff on the Taylor Swift romance thing.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Gentlemen. And not. Not so much. There is one on Lifetime that is more of a knockoff and that it's a pop star who meets a football player and they fall in love.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, yeah, that's definitely a knockoff.

[Chick McGee]

Well, it says here Donna Kelsey making her film debut in two Hallmark movies.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. So she's already been in Holiday Touchdown, A Chief's love story.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, there you go. Holiday Touchdown. And this is the other one. Is Christmas on Call. Features a diehard Eagles fan who helps his love interest get to know Philadelphia. According to a release from Hallmark this week, Donna Kelsey Mama Kelsey is also in.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay, interesting.

[Chick McGee]

So one of them deals with the Chiefs, Travis's team, and one of them deals with Eagles, Jason Kelsey's team. So there you go.

[Christy Lee]

Ah, I like Tom's idea of you could have, like, two Raiders fans who the whole movie is just them kind of sitting by the fire.

[Chick McGee]

Is that what they do?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Oh, well, we should maybe call up Kostaki. You guys can make a little wage.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I guess he might be asleep.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, we can text him. I'll wake him up.

[Ace Cosby]

He was in Vegas over the weekend, so I'm sure.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, well, get him before he goes to bed.

[Josh Arnold]

He's still there.

[Chick McGee]

He would love to hear from you.

[Christy Lee]

I mean, he's. He'll sit at those poker tables for 18 hours. Oh, I know he knows how to do it. I don't know if you can have your phone with you. I even imagine you can, but maybe it's.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a good question.

[Christy Lee]

Poor form to look at. It.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know what the.

[Ace Cosby]

No, you can't take pictures in the casino. Yeah, they frown on that.

[Chick McGee]

A stash of pornographic magazines that O.J. simpson kept in prison is going up for auction. Malcolm Laverne is Simpson's longtime attorney and executor of his estate. He told TMZ that the porn stash is from the late athlete stint in the Nevada State Prison. The attorney says he may put Mr. Simpson's Magnum condoms on the auction block as well.

[Tom Griswold]

Of course, of course.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

These are still in the package.

[Ace Cosby]

Condoms in prison.

[Chick McGee]

They hope to hold the auction in early 2025.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I assume they issue condoms in prison for health. Health purposes, not for pregnancy prevention.

[Christy Lee]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

That'd be. That'd be a story.

[Ace Cosby]

Do they.

[Chick McGee]

I don't.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sure I would hope so.

[Ace Cosby]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

They did.

[Christy Lee]

You know, look, you can get STDs from another guy. Can get. I mean.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, you can't keep.

[Christy Lee]

There are other illnesses I could mention where that was essentially. They essentially invented.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I mean, I just think it's interesting that they allowed OJ to have porno magazines and porn in prison. It's just nice to know that he didn't just get off on the murder charges.

[Ace Cosby]

How many titles of those magazines?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I was wondering the same.

[Chick McGee]

Gotta be Blonde.

[Christy Lee]

I think I saw a penthouse, which.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

What was the poem that Johnny Cochran did if he jerked the porno work?

[Christy Lee]

That's exactly right.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, well, maybe that's where they got the DNA evidence after all these years. Yeah, they scraped it off a penthouse. Is that sports?

[Chick McGee]

Well, I would think that if they get money from that, it goes right to the Goldman's, Right?

[Christy Lee]

That's the idea, but who knows?

[Tom Griswold]

And they. I believe OJ has a $500,000 tax lien from the IRS.

[Ace Cosby]

Who gets paid first? Oh, what am I saying? The government or the.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a very good question. And. Yeah, but I know. All I know is that they. The Goldman's, couldn't touch the money from his NFL pension for some odd reason.

[Chick McGee]

And his. I think his property in Florida, too, they couldn't touch for whatever reason.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah. There's some weird thing like more sports.

[Chick McGee]

Coming up, including BMX bikers against pickleballers. And he's one of Tom's stories. An overdue library book is exciting.

[Tom Griswold]

And it involves sports.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, there you go.

[Tom Griswold]

And it involves helping kids read. Yeah, it's kind of positive spin in the abstract. Yes. And I did spend some time this weekend working on my Omaha Steaks. Gifting shipped off a whole bunch of boxes of Omaha Steaks.

[Chick McGee]

You. You went online? Well, no, you probably didn't go online.

[Tom Griswold]

You had somebody go online for you, you'd be amazed. I had some downtime, so I did it myself.

[Christy Lee]

Well, you saved a lot of money with the deal they have going on right now. 50% off site wide. Dom, you got half off everything that you ordered. Unbelievable. Plus, did you put in that promo code?

[Tom Griswold]

Of course. It's bts.

I know that.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, you BTS is the promo code you put in to get an extra $30 off. They have five generations of experience. Omaha Steaks consistently delivers the world's best steak and the best hot dogs.

Legendary steaks, mouth watering desserts, and so much more. That's what you could bet, Ace. Cause I bet Kostakis getting one of these Omaha Steaks packages. You can say, hey, if the Falcons lose, I get that package. Oh boy. That's a lot of shipping and dry ice. But that's Kostakis loss.

[Christy Lee]

I don't, but maybe I should.

[Tom Griswold]

You ever done one of those movies you get at the airport and look at and.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Chick McGee]

They always notice though. They remind. I see them remind people all the time.

[Tom Griswold]

[Chick McGee]

I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, Chick McGee.

[Chick McGee]

Welcome back.

[Tom Griswold]

I see over there at the sports desk that we could make a like a little mini movie of just 10 seconds before we come back from these breaks.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah. Things that are said and what gets.

[Tom Griswold]

Blurted out just a millisecond before these microphones open up.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Of course. It'd be the last thing we ever did.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Professionally. Yeah. I don't know why I asked this question, but the answer is as follows. Beginning May 7, 2025, you are correct, Ace. You will no longer be able to use a non compliant driver's license to board a domestic flight. You need to have the.

[Chick McGee]

What month? May.

[Tom Griswold]

May 7th. Yeah. You need to have. Each state has a different set of requirements on what you need a legal state ID or you can use a passport. But if you. If your driver's license from whatever state you're in was. They put a star on it, Right.

[Ace Cosby]

Or something. They do.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And I remember I did this in three trips to the DMV and I finally got.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I thought they just put that on mine because I'm a star.

[Ace Cosby]

Well, you feel nearly special.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, you're special. You're very special.

[Christy Lee]

Thank you.

[Chick McGee]

You're welcome.

[Tom Griswold]

That's Josh Arnold. You'll find him at the Stephen Singer Jewelers Sidekick desk and chair.

[Chick McGee]

You almost say Stephen King. Top of mind. What's going on?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I'm a fan.

[Christy Lee]

Welcome to Stephen King Jewelers.

[Tom Griswold]

Sometimes that is better.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah. You're going to get a haunted piece of jewelry if you buy a Stephen King jewelry.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. What's going on over there? You said you had some more sporting news of interest.

[Chick McGee]

Detroit area Library says a man can keep its. He can keep his baseball book even though it's been overdue for 50 years.

[Tom Griswold]

We get this all the time.

[Chick McGee]

Chuck Hildebrandt said he borrowed the book titled Baseball Zania Stars.

[Christy Lee]

I want to read this book.

[Chick McGee]

He borrowed it in 1974 as a 13 year old baseball nut. Never returned it. It was not until five or six years ago he discovered the library book among his belongings. The 63 year old says he decided to keep the book until 2024. It's the 50th anniversary. And then try to return it.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Library director Oksana Urban told the Detroit Free Press that Hillbrandt can keep the book because it's been erased from their system. Technically the fine would have been. And I'm not sure what they're using to figure this out, but they say finagami. Oh, There you go. $4,564 dollars. Hilda Brandt's trying to raise the amount for the nonprofit literacy group Reading is Fundamental.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, that's really nice.

[Tom Griswold]

So he wants to make a donation now of that amount. So they're kind of a fun story. We get these everyone. So they'll find a book that is overdue by 110 years to some library in Massachusetts. And the fine.

[Christy Lee]

That's cool.

[Tom Griswold]

50,000.

[Christy Lee]

I'm gonna look that I'm gonna give to that. I'm gonna look that guy.

[Tom Griswold]

Would you. Would you forgive him or would you.

[Christy Lee]

I would absolutely forgive him. Yeah. Especially and then to find out that he was doing that. That donation thing. That's very cool.

[Chick McGee]

That's a good idea. It's a good. That's a good. Solve the problem.

[Tom Griswold]

But think about it. It's baseball Zaniest Stars.

[Christy Lee]

I love it now.

[Tom Griswold]

But that's was published in 73 or 74. Think of the stuff that's happened since then.

[Ace Cosby]

No joke.

[Tom Griswold]

Got some extra zany.

[Chick McGee]

They were only dreaming of Zany back in 74 when they put the book together.

[Tom Griswold]

That's old school zany.

[Christy Lee]

See, but old school zany is more fascinating to me than like I want.

[Chick McGee]

To say that 1974 was before the zany. The only baseball zany I can remember is Mark the Bird Fidrich.

[Christy Lee]

And how's. What was he so zany?

[Tom Griswold]

He would talk to the ball.

[Chick McGee]

He would talk and manicure the manicure the pitcher's mound and had. He had crazy hair coming out of his hat and all sorts of stuff.

[Tom Griswold]

He was on the COVID of a bunch of magazines like in the 80s.

[Christy Lee]

And it's like what are we? Boy, that Dwight Gooding sure was zany. He could snort three pounds ago.

[Tom Griswold]

What year was the LSD pitching thing?

[Christy Lee]

Ellis.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, the Doc Ellis.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I don't know. It's gotta be Pirates in the World Series. So that's gotta be 69 maybe, or 79. Was. We are family, I think. But I don't know if Doc Ellis was on that team. He must have been.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Why don't you look that up?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I just. I can't. I was just asking.

[Ace Cosby]

Isn't there a baseball player that dated Madonna for a while? He was kind of crazy.

[Chick McGee]

He was zany.

[Christy Lee]

He shot a wild one.

[Chick McGee]

He shot his thumb off at the kitchen table with. He's cleaning his gun. Remember that? That's zany.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

And then he was doing Bigfoot hunts, wasn't he?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's right.

[Christy Lee]

Not long ago.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And he was. You could. You could sign up and you could. You could go on a Bigfoot hunt with him. I. I haven't seen a follow up, so I'm assuming they didn't find one. Yeah, but like Bigfoot, you catch it and keep it.

[Christy Lee]

Or do you catch and release?

[Tom Griswold]

Catch and release, that's right.

[Christy Lee]

Especially if they're small. You want them to go. You want them to grow.

[Ace Cosby]

Harry and the Hendersons, they don't fit in your house very well.

[Christy Lee]

And I love Harry and the Hendersons, who give a charming, charming film.

[Josh Arnold]

Very, very nice.

[Chick McGee]

Boy, this baseball Xania stars from 1974. The COVID is. It's just a guy. Oh, it's. Didn't Leo Durocher have a bird under his baseball cap? And he. Was it Durocher or some. Some management.

[Christy Lee]

Amazing on opening day.

[Chick McGee]

And he.

[Tom Griswold]

Casey Stengel, maybe.

[Chick McGee]

Might have been Stengel.

[Christy Lee]

See, that's the thing. You're going to get off. And old Licorice Whip Wilson once brought a yo yo onto the field.

[Chick McGee]

Threw the ball. Threw the ball with his foot like.

[Christy Lee]

We wouldn't bat an eye at all.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Old Jimmy Hirschaway once hit four foul balls in a row.

[Chick McGee]

Now that's zany. I wonder.

[Tom Griswold]

The Doc Ellis thing. This says it was the 12th of June, 1970.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. All right. I thought they were the 68, 69 along in there. They were pretty good, too.

[Tom Griswold]

Doc Ellis threw a no hitter on that date. Later stated he accomplished the feat under the influence of lsd. He was the starting pitcher for the National League in the all star game in 71.

[Christy Lee]

See mom, see dad. You see what you can accomplish when you're on the. And you grounded me.

[Josh Arnold]

You said drugs are bad.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, some hippie kid trying to make that case.

[Chick McGee]

See? See what you did?

[Christy Lee]

You don't get it.

[Tom Griswold]

Jerry Garcia was catching. No, he's from the Dominican Republic. Well, thank you.

[Chick McGee]

Is that sports One more BMX riders. This is going to start happening a lot. So stand by. BMX riders in Santa Cruz, California, protesting a proposal to remove the city' BMX bike ramps to install pickleball courts.

[Christy Lee]

These pickleball courts are encroaching on the environment, that is for sure.

[Josh Arnold]

I love it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, they. They took over the basketball courts at my gym.

[Christy Lee]

They did indeed.

[Ace Cosby]

Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

And they're packed from the moment they open.

[Chick McGee]

The city's parks and recreation department is Santa Cruz currently looking for spaces to answer the demand for pickleball. Amid the sports gaining popularity, Tony Elliott, Santa Cruz's director of parks and called a meeting to gather community feedback about the possibility of replacing the city's BMX ramps with their first pickleball courts.

[Christy Lee]

They said the basketball courts at your gym are now.

[Josh Arnold]

They are our gym.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. All pickleball.

[Christy Lee]

Assuming there was a demographic shift at the. Shortly thereafter.

[Josh Arnold]

It didn't go over. It didn't go over well, I'll tell you that. I heard a lot about it in the sauna.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. The answer is yes.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. That's a big. But they're packed all the time.

[Chick McGee]

Tony Elliott, the director of Parks and Rec, Santa Cruz, said one of the biggest revelations from a meeting was the number of BMX riders that rallied for their park. He said it was really clear for the community that there's a strong desire to keep the park, the bike park there, and not turn it over to pickleball. So they're gonna wait and see what they're gonna.

[Tom Griswold]

If they turn it over, they're probably have to do something about all those ramps. I mean, it's going to be. Talk about a defense. I got to run up the ramp and run at the ball.

[Christy Lee]

Extreme pickleball. That's got to be next.

[Chick McGee]

There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

But you're right, Chick. This is going to be. We're going to be getting variations on this. They took out the fill in the blank for the pickleball.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Kind of the gentrification, if you will. Of course.

[Christy Lee]

Have you played, Chick?

[Chick McGee]

I have not.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I never have either.

[Josh Arnold]

So much fun.

[Christy Lee]

I know my dad enjoyed it. And I know you enjoy Pat, and.

[Ace Cosby]

My husband enjoys Tom, I think you've played.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it's great. It's a little easier on the knees, I think, technically. And you're not running quite as fast.

[Ace Cosby]

As far as fault. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I mean, tennis is, for me, impossible. I was real difficult.

[Josh Arnold]

Hard.

[Tom Griswold]

Christian, you point out that falling on the asphalt is difficult.

[Ace Cosby]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Skin your knee, Right?

[Ace Cosby]

Skin your knee. Break an arm. Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It'd be interesting to talk to an orthopedic surgeon and find out what the newest injuries are. That because of the popularity of if there's a particular pickleball injury. The way in the world. In the world of skiing, when they brought snowboarding to change the nature of the injuries, unfortunately, most of the snowboarders lived, but. Oh, sorry.

[Chick McGee]

Pickleball elbow was very.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, exactly.

[Dusty Slay]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

But the thing is, the trade off is older people getting some Much needed.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Exercise. So, I mean.

[Tom Griswold]

And that's also. You can. You can socialize because you're much closer. You can talk.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah. Oh, that's cool.

[Ace Cosby]

And a lot of people put pickleball courts on their driveway, which is why I bring up the asphalt thing, because it's easy to do. You can just.

[Tom Griswold]

I got one.

[Chick McGee]

I've got a little.

[Tom Griswold]

I've got a net in my garage. We wheel it out.

[Christy Lee]

Fun.

[Chick McGee]

Is that right?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I mean, it's. If it's a twentieth of the exercise, the tennis is. It's good exercise.

[Tom Griswold]

You take that. You take that painter's tape, that blue. What's that called? That. You know the stuff.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, I know.

[Tom Griswold]

You lay the court out.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, fun.

[Tom Griswold]

It's. Well, I'll have you over, Josh.

[Christy Lee]

I definitely play. Yeah, yeah, I know. The girls will.

[Tom Griswold]

The girls will take you on.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. They'll all kick my.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh. And they will. They'll do nothing. They'll spike it.

[Christy Lee]

And I bet they're ruthless. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. They enjoy that pity in the teeth.

[Chick McGee]

With the ball and laugh.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, we were talking about. Oh, I'm sorry. Is that the end of.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, that's okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Thank you very much. Yes, you're welcome, McGee. We have Christie Lee across the way at the SILAC Insurance news desk. What's happening?

[Ace Cosby]

It's the holidays. And 50% of couples visiting home for the holidays plan to have sex in their childhood bedroom.

[I]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

This is according to a new survey shedding light on what the holiday season has in store for America's love lives.

[Tom Griswold]

No, this is. This. They must be kind of talking about people that are younger, in their 20s, just out of college or something, because.

[Ace Cosby]

I would think when you.

[Tom Griswold]

When you. Did you. Josh, when you were in school, did you go? Did you stay? Did you have a dorm and everything?

[Christy Lee]

No, I commuted, so I lived at home while I went to college. And yes, I would bring girls back. And for the most, I only got caught once. And I got caught the morning after my mom came downstairs where my room was and saw my date and I.

[Ace Cosby]

Naked in bed.

[Christy Lee]

Not just that, but surrounded by beer cans.

[Tom Griswold]

So what was she most upset about? Your room was in the basement.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that sounds like that was really something.

[Christy Lee]

She didn't talk to me. My dad let me know. You know, your mother's not too happy about what she saw.

[Tom Griswold]

Did they go into any detail? Was it the beer? Was it.

[Christy Lee]

My mom didn't care for this young lady because she had a tattoo.

[Tom Griswold]

And please tell me it was in a really interesting place that she shouldn't have seen.

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Christy Lee]

So she was already.

[Chick McGee]

Where was the tattoo? You got to tell us that.

[Tom Griswold]

Her arm.

[Christy Lee]

And so she didn't really want me dating somebody with a tattoo. What a sweet lady.

[Tom Griswold]

Those times have changed.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. For sure now. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It wouldn't be a big deal. No. Have you since dated a lady with a tattoo?

[Christy Lee]

Yes. Almost, I would say. I was going to say exclusively, but it wasn't necessarily by choice. So many women just have tattoos? I don't know. But who knows? Maybe tattooed women are attracted to the likes of men.

[Tom Griswold]

They typically tell you that it's coming. The tattoo. I mean, like, if you're in the process of having a romantic encounter, will they say, oh, by the way, don't be too surprised. No, I have a political statement on my boobs. Right?

[Christy Lee]

No. Boy, you really.

[Tom Griswold]

I was a girl last week. Should make America hard again. Wow.

[Christy Lee]

Little thrown by your Nader nipples.

[Josh Arnold]

Make America hard again. I like.

[Ace Cosby]

The poll of 2,000 U.S. adults conducted found 2/3 agree the holidays are the most romantic time to be intimate.

[Christy Lee]

It is a nice romantic time, isn't it?

[Tom Griswold]

Aren't you exhausted? I am completely exhausted all the time in the last couple of weeks.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. This survey is the younger folks who don't have to prepare the meals they don't have to do.

[Ace Cosby]

They don't have to wrap all the presents.

[Tom Griswold]

They have access to ADDERALL. Yes.

[Ace Cosby]

Over 50% of respondents who will be visiting home for the holidays plan to have sex in their bedroom, their kids bedroom, their child bed.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you ever do that?

[Ace Cosby]

Never.

[Tom Griswold]

Chick.

[Chick McGee]

No. Never did that.

[Tom Griswold]

Ace.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Aha. Now, was this bed like a. Like a cool bed, like a race car, or. Okay, just a regular.

[Christy Lee]

I had to move the steering wheel up, you know.

[Ace Cosby]

Did you.

[Tom Griswold]

Was it. Was it a single bed or a double bed?

[Christy Lee]

Single.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. I. The answer is no, because you may recall, I never slept in my bedroom.

[Ace Cosby]

You slept in your sister's bedroom? I know that.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

My. Yeah, my entire.

[Chick McGee]

I. That was your office.

[Tom Griswold]

When my sister. I was like, whatever, 10. My sister moved out, and I took all the stuff in my room and created my own office.

[Ace Cosby]

So did you have sex in her bedroom?

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Christy Lee]

Funny.

[Ace Cosby]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, it was.

[Dusty Slay]

It.

[Tom Griswold]

But it's kind of odd I don't have those childhood bedroom memories, because I didn't really have one, and I left her room completely intact. So it had all of the delicate ceramics and all that girly stuff. That's the room I slept in, which made me that incredibly virulent heterosexual.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Explains a lot.

[Chick McGee]

That's what we were just.

[Christy Lee]

It kind of does speak to your. If it didn't take after all those years.

[Tom Griswold]

No, it's just.

[Christy Lee]

I meant to be.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know what was going through.

[Tom Griswold]

My mind when I said, you know something, I don't want to have a bed in my bedroom. I'm going to have an office.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, that's funny.

[Ace Cosby]

At 10, 40% of it.

[Tom Griswold]

And then I eventually paneled it myself.

[Chick McGee]

Is that right?

[Tom Griswold]

I put in hideous red shag carpet.

[Chick McGee]

Now, is that house still standing?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You guys sold it, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Yo, my mom. Yeah. Sold it eventually, but, yeah, the. And then after I went off to school, she. She painted the walnut paneling white and took off the burlap. I put burlap on the wall so I could hang posters.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, sounds lovely.

[Tom Griswold]

It was great. All right. Jefferson. Jefferson Airplane. Burlap walls. Jeff. Jefferson Airplane. Because you could. You could pin stuff right on the burlap. It was a. It was a tasteful, really. Kind of a. What do you call it? Undyed Burlap. Natural. So it was very nice.

[Ace Cosby]

40% of singles tend to hook up with people just as often, if not more, during the holiday season.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Y.

[Ace Cosby]

Those bar crawls can be quite.

[Christy Lee]

Cuffing. Is that the term?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

We learned that cuffing is where you. You're. It's almost like you're handcuffed to somebody. Is that what's going on?

[Christy Lee]

Metaphorically, yeah. During the holidays.

[Tom Griswold]

So I'm sorry. So they're saying it's more romantic during the holidays?

[Ace Cosby]

Yep. And even though many will be visiting their family during the holidays, one in seven want to sneak in a hookup or a date while they're home.

[Tom Griswold]

By the way, a word to the wise. Make sure that if you are the oldest and they have younger siblings, make sure that the baby monitor is off when you. When you go to knock one off. Yeah. In the room with the crib.

[Ace Cosby]

30% of those polled have hooked up with someone during the holidays and regretted it later.

[Christy Lee]

Perhaps a cousin.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Now it's kind of cool because you get to. Josh, did you. This young lady that you were.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Hooking up with, did she get to see like your participation trophy from.

[Christy Lee]

She got to see many cool things.

[Tom Griswold]

Chorus pictures.

[Christy Lee]

My Freddy poster. And yes, you got to see my. How hip I was.

[Ace Cosby]

Right.

[Christy Lee]

My stereo. My dad's old DJ stereo out.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you really?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah. I mean it so loud in my.

[Josh Arnold]

Little basement this night with the beer cans. Did you have music on at the time? And what was it?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I do not remember. But I'm sure we had. We were playing something. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Probably we could do a whole show on what music you had playing back in the day during. I'm sure there's some amazingly inappropriate.

[Christy Lee]

And it was fun. I like. I liked being a young man.

[Tom Griswold]

Now do you have a stereo? Do you have. Do you have a stereo now?

[Christy Lee]

No, I don't. I don't. I've just got the Bluetooth.

[Chick McGee]

Bluetooth speakers.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it sounds great.

[Tom Griswold]

So one of my goals is to get my stereo out of mothballs and set it up again.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah, yeah, that'd be cool.

[Chick McGee]

I told you, Tom, that's. I. I took that dive into vinyl and you start to remember about halfway through. This is a pain in the ass.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but I. But I do have a.

[Chick McGee]

You got to get up. You got to unwrap the album. You got to put the thing on the. It was turntable.

[Tom Griswold]

But I have some huge speakers and a great amp. It would be fun.

[Christy Lee]

I mean, huge silver dial.

[Chick McGee]

And buddy, I think he still has these speakers that were the size of a small refrigerator. He was so proud of those speakers.

[Tom Griswold]

Speaker technology has changed drastically. I do have a magnets.

[Chick McGee]

Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Before there was a Macintosh computer company. There is a Macintosh stereo. The is getting obscure. There's a Macintosh stereos from back in the day are all tube amps. They're great.

[Ace Cosby]

You have one of those?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah. You got to break that out.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

We have a stereo room here. A party room.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that'd be fun. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, that would be fun.

[Tom Griswold]

Ace, you could DJ again.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

And I think that might be a good thing.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Or as somebody told me the other day. Yeah, our office Christmas party. We had a cash bar. I go, well, let's keep you all from getting to.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, at least they had a bar.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Our office Christmas party will be alcohol free, except. Except for those staff members who carry a flask. You know who you are.

[Ace Cosby]

Don't rule those out.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I certainly don't. Once again, Christy Lee is at the SILEC insurance news desk. What's happening?

[Ace Cosby]

Ali Breen had an interesting letter, if you'll recall, last Wednesday about a lady who was very upset because her boyfriend of what, seven years or something didn't like to spend money on her and she wanted this real expensive.

[Tom Griswold]

Right purse.

[Ace Cosby]

Well, it's the season for presents. But a new poll finds couples struggle with the gift giving expectations. According to datingnews.com 95% of people survey who are in a relationship plan to give a holiday gift this year, with the average American planning to spend 237 on their partner's gift.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Ace Cosby]

All right, all right.

[Tom Griswold]

That sound right to you, Josh?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Does that seem like too much?

[Tom Griswold]

I just as an average, it does, it does seem a little high.

[Ace Cosby]

40% said they feel gift giving puts too much pressure on romantic relationships, which is, is illustrated by that letter that she had last week.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, didn't she want a $5,000, a.

[Ace Cosby]

Twenty five hundred dollar bag?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, geez. Sorry.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, but he hadn't spent more than what, $100 on her for any gift. Remember that?

[Christy Lee]

Which is a fine amount. It really is.

[Ace Cosby]

What would you get for a hundred dollars?

[Christy Lee]

What could you get somebody for a hundred dollars? Oh, I, I, I, it's, I, I don't know. I don't buy women's clothing or anything like, but I would think a nice top.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, right, sure. Sweater. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But isn't giving clothing is a really bad idea?

[Christy Lee]

Sure.

[Ace Cosby]

I have to be really good at it.

[Tom Griswold]

And I was reading an article that there's the number one thing kids don't want for Christmas is clothes.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, kids have never wanted clothes.

[Tom Griswold]

I remember being a kid, you open up and homeboy. Mom. Socks. Thanks.

[Chick McGee]

Pajamas. My grandmother always got me pajamas.

[Ace Cosby]

Yep.

[Chick McGee]

What a, what a waste.

[Ace Cosby]

You don't like pajamas for Christmas? Family pajama picture. Come on. Two thirds of respondents said gift giving reflects the feelings for their partner. 65% think a gift reflects how their partner feels about them.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, no, I'm sorry. It's in the, this story, so it never fails.

[Tom Griswold]

What Remember this because you, when people are, they're going to do this after I've told them and they're going to be, they're going to, they're going to email me stacks of $2 bill. Am I right?

[Ace Cosby]

What?

[Christy Lee]

Not for your, not for your significant other.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, no, that's got to be.

[Tom Griswold]

First of all, I believe it's our good friend Drew Hastings. Drew Hastings pointed out a long time ago that if two dollar bills, it's like something special. And I agree with them. People get him and they go, hey, what is this thing?

[Christy Lee]

First off, I believe it was Jack Freeman, please. Oh, yes, yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Was it Jack?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Drew had nothing to do with this guy's different.

[Tom Griswold]

I see. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I apologize to both Jack and to drew. Excuse me.

[Ace Cosby]

By 26 old said this just this weekend she was in Chicago and went to pay for something and had a two dollar bill. And the person taking the money goes, this isn't real. And she goes, yeah, two dollar bills are legal tender. She goes, no, it's not.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it's kind of the point now where. When's. How often do you handle cash anyway?

[Ace Cosby]

I know, but still, it's still legal tender. The girls.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, sure, but I'm saying two dollar bills, I'd be. That'd be kind of a fun gift. A stack of twos.

[Christy Lee]

Not.

[Tom Griswold]

But I'd rather have a stack of twos than a Starbucks gift card.

[Ace Cosby]

Hey, I want you to try that and get back to us when we come back from vacation.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I would never do it. Haven't you figured that out, how this show works?

[Christy Lee]

A stack of twos is fun for, like, your 8 year old.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Nephew's birthday. Not for your boyfriend or wife.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but I. I would never get clothing.

[Christy Lee]

Sure, sure.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, there's. There's the.

[Christy Lee]

I just said that because Christy put me on the. Christie made it very clear that $100 isn't enough for her. Oh, no, no. You made it very.

[Tom Griswold]

No. Didn't you and Andy agree that you're not doing presents this year?

[Ace Cosby]

You're not doing presents.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, Andy, if you're listening, you better get her something, or we're, you know, something. Maybe we'll chip in and get her something. You can put your name on it because she'll come in here after the Christmas vacation.

[Josh Arnold]

I can't believe it. I want to hear about it.

[Tom Griswold]

What's the name of your lawyer? Tom.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, my gosh. No, we. We did little stocking stuffers. That's it.

[Tom Griswold]

Christy. Trust me. Christy. Hundred dollars in two dollar bills stacked up. He'll tell everybody. That's the. That's the thing is, hey, you're not gonna be a Christie. You should give me 100 and twos.

[Christy Lee]

I've got some asparagus rubber bands if you want to make it really nice.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, don't you love those. Those big thick ones?

[Christy Lee]

I do. Save them all.

[Ace Cosby]

I have them on the inside of my pantry door on the knob.

[Christy Lee]

My grandma used to do that.

[Ace Cosby]

She really.

[Christy Lee]

I did never occur to me to do the knob thing again. Yes.

[Ace Cosby]

You always know where the rubber bands.

[Christy Lee]

I just have a Ziploc bag full of rubber bands.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh.

[Ace Cosby]

Put them on the knob on the inside of the pantry. That way I know where all the.

[Chick McGee]

Rubber knob them up.

[Christy Lee]

I'm gonna announce that every time.

[Tom Griswold]

And my Pat said that's what you do with your condoms. Right, Pat?

[Josh Arnold]

I don't use condoms.

[Tom Griswold]

I meant back in the day when you once before your birthday, when everything was working.

[Josh Arnold]

I used to. Everything works great. I used. I used A condom once in my life.

[Ace Cosby]

Are you serious?

[Josh Arnold]

Dead serious.

[Christy Lee]

That doesn't shock me.

[Ace Cosby]

How many STDs have you?

[Tom Griswold]

None.

[Josh Arnold]

Zero. I'm very careful, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait a minute, Wait a minute. I'm sorry. Oh.

[Chick McGee]

You're supposed to pour Dr. Pepper on it, right? That's right. Yeah. That's what I thought.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. The whole thing about the Coke is a birth control thing. No, no, no. It always was Pepsi. That's right.

[Christy Lee]

I always have jumping jacks.

[Tom Griswold]

Would you. First it was the Pepsi and then the jumping jacks. Of course. Yeah. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Good luck buying your gifts.

[Tom Griswold]

So. So the. Okay, so the point of this is.

[I]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It's very hard to buy.

[Ace Cosby]

It's very hard to get the romantic partner.

[Josh Arnold]

It's a lot of stress.

[Christy Lee]

Keep context in mind. You couples out there, if you know what job the person you're with has, if you know they can't afford certain things, of course, be lenient. My God.

[Tom Griswold]

Here on the show, I would recommend a stack of $2 bills and a nice bracelet from my buddy Stephen singer. I hate stephensinger.com. that'll work. We'll come back with more great ideas. Also coming up, the Ace Cosby joke of the day, comedian Reno Collier and Dusty Slay, one of the great comics out there. Dusty. We're to talk to Dusty coming up this morning.

At the I hate Stephen Singer sidekick chair, there's Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee. Hello, Tom. Mom.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello. We heard about Josh disappointing his mom by having some woman in his childhood basement.

[Chick McGee]

Betting some woman with the beer cans thrown about.

[Christy Lee]

It's pretty Rad.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Do you know. Do you know this was. How old were you at the time?

[Christy Lee]

20.

[Tom Griswold]

And your. Your mom came downstairs in the basement. There you were with some young lady. The tattoo.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you remember what the tattoo was?

[Christy Lee]

It was like a. A bird. Flowery combo on the arm. Yes. If you looked at it, it was like, oh, there's a bird. You're like, oh, no, those flowers. And it ended up being both like.

[Tom Griswold]

One of those Escher things that did. Did your mom get a good look. See at it?

[Christy Lee]

Yes, because she asked about it and.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

So they had a conversation.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

She was a nice girl. It had to be awkward.

[Chick McGee]

So tell me for.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. What was your name again?

[Tom Griswold]

Jezebel, Was it?

[Christy Lee]

No, Mom. Yeah. No, she met her initially at a dance because I. I had graduated and she. This girl was a year younger than I in high school and she took me to her senior prom.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh.

[Christy Lee]

So I was a freshman in college and I went to. And so that's when my mom first met her and she was wearing a incredibly, incredibly tight and low loca dress or whatever. My dad, of course, immediately took to this young lady. But my mom was. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And your dad. Your dad. Quite pleased with your history of being in the choir. The jazz hands was happy that you were with a woman. Okay. We were talking about that survey you had about going back to your childhood home with. With partners, et cetera, et cetera. But I did a little more research on your gift giving thing. Christy Lynn.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

This is kind of interesting. 50% of people tell their. Their romantic partner exactly what they want.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, I think so. Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

You do that?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. Peace and quiet.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat, I can't.

[Christy Lee]

If you're waiting for many men out.

[Tom Griswold]

There, Pat, if you're going to weigh in, you see, I may have to respond, but you've asked me not to say anything. Here's a list of bad gifts.

[Ace Cosby]

Tell your significant other exactly what you want.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. I can't imagine that you. You commenting on these surveys or excuse them enough. I don't think.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it's completely unfair.

[Christy Lee]

I think it's totally fine. The couples would say, you know what I would really like this year and that. Yeah, I think that's completely fine.

[Ace Cosby]

Is she a good gift buyer? Does she actually nail it?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Okay, now, but here's a list of bad things about. There are people are split on the gift card.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, I had.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, a lot of people don't like them.

[Ace Cosby]

75% though, think a gift card is an acceptable gift for A significant other. Oh, I say no.

[Christy Lee]

I think it depends on what it is. A gift card for a day at the spa. That's quite different.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, well, but it better not be the only gift, right? Yeah, maybe.

[Tom Griswold]

Again, a stack of two dollar bills totaling at least 100. That's ridiculous.

[Ace Cosby]

It is ridiculous.

[Tom Griswold]

Why are. You know. You know how many banks are gonna have runs on two dollar bills today? Because of my brilliant suggestion for children.

[Ace Cosby]

A lot of people.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, kids would love that.

[Ace Cosby]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, look, I got. I got 22 bills.

[Ace Cosby]

Honey, we're not talking about kids here.

[Josh Arnold]

How about your lady?

[Ace Cosby]

Can you imagine if you gave her ten two dollar bills?

[Christy Lee]

She'd throw them in your face.

[Tom Griswold]

There better be some very witty card.

[Christy Lee]

They better be on the front seat of a Mercedes.

[Josh Arnold]

You're gonna be in the pool house again.

[Tom Griswold]

How about gifts for the significant other's family? Family. The survey says the Average person spends $120 on gifts for the other person's family.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay. Just get Mom. Take care of Mom, Your other. Your significant other's mom, and you're fine.

[Tom Griswold]

That's it. What about dad?

[Ace Cosby]

What about the siblings?

[Christy Lee]

Look, I. Guys don't. Most guys hit a certain age, and I've hit that age of I don't want or need anything.

[Josh Arnold]

Yep.

[Chick McGee]

And anything I do want or need, I go ahead and take care of it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but if you. If you got a stack of two dollar bills totaling at least 100, wouldn't you mention it to somebody? Hey, listen, look at this. And every time you went to spend money and he's like, oh, I got this. Don't you? Yeah. Tom.

[Josh Arnold]

People going, that's not a real.

[Ace Cosby]

God, I wish I didn't already have your Christmas gift because I'd be going to the bank on my way home from.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm telling you, there's gonna be a run on them all over the country. Okay. I'm sorry about Christy. One other thing. I got this.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, there's more out of him.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, I think this is kind of interesting.

[Chick McGee]

Here we go.

[Tom Griswold]

We were talking about music in the bedroom.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Because, Josh, you mentioned when you had this encounter with the tattooed lady in your basement.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, we had a fun time. We were drinking and listening to music.

[Chick McGee]

Like she's tattooed from head to foot.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, no, it was. It was a very small, tasteful tattoo, but my mom was struck by it.

[Tom Griswold]

Were you playing it on vinyl? The music?

[Christy Lee]

No, it was cd.

[Tom Griswold]

Cd, okay.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it was a mixed CD that I had created.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, nice.

[Tom Griswold]

And did you create it for the Purposes of plowing. Sorry, I didn't mean. I. I. Sometimes I can't find the words.

[Josh Arnold]

Why would you use that one?

[Tom Griswold]

I was working on something.

[Christy Lee]

No, this was just. I used to make mixed CDs all the time. My brother and I figured out with our. All the stereo components we had how to create. We had a CD burner and we had enough CD players where we could do that cool thing that they would do on the radio. Whereas one song was fading out, the.

[Tom Griswold]

Other one was nice.

[Christy Lee]

There was no dead air.

[Chick McGee]

Segue.

[Christy Lee]

We just call that a segue. Yeah. Wonderful. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

That's fun. Yeah, those were fun. And I have a question for Chick. I did not have a home 8 track player in. In my car. I did have. I had a cassette player finally, for a long time. I know. You had the. The recordable eight track thing.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yes.

[Tom Griswold]

If you track player recorder. If you put that on, would it play continuously or would it get to the end and actually stop?

[Chick McGee]

No, it go back to the first track.

[Tom Griswold]

That's what I thought. So you could have continuous music.

[Chick McGee]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

Back in the day in your basement, Josh.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Cool, cool.

[Tom Griswold]

And then. Do you remember the. I'm trying to think of the movie 10, I think it was with Dudley Moore.

[Ace Cosby]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that the one where they were playing Ravel's Bolero?

[Ace Cosby]

That's the big bedroom scene.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Was there a run on that?

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, I bet in that era.

[Tom Griswold]

Pretty hot.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Every time. Well, I listen to classical music a lot, and every time it comes on, I think, ah, there's Bo Derek.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Christy Lee]

It's a fun movie. I like that one.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, it's cute.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that the one where he goes to the dentist and tries to drink the coffee later and spills it all over himself and burns the bejesus out of his lips?

[Ace Cosby]

That's what you remember out of.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Not her running down the beach scene in slow motion.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't find Bo Derek particularly.

[Christy Lee]

I want to go to a bar where Brian Dennehy is the bartender.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Like a cool bartender.

[Josh Arnold]

Absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

Going to be tough now.

[Chick McGee]

He's incommunicado. Where's that?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no. What else you got?

[Ace Cosby]

Thousands of Santas took to the streets of New York City for the annual SantaCon Charity Pub Crawl.

[Christy Lee]

Oh.

[Ace Cosby]

Revelers dressed as Kris King Kringle, along with those dressed as Grinch's elves or other holiday characters, strolled the bars and clubs from midtown Manhattan to the East Village over the weekend.

[Tom Griswold]

Kids leave out bail money for Santa and maybe a Little coffee, sober them up.

[Ace Cosby]

SantaCon is actually a good thing. They are encouraged those who Participate to donate $15 to enter participating venues. And all that money goes to charity.

[Tom Griswold]

Mommy, Santa barfed on his beard.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, Santa does that.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah. I was telling Pat on the break that in Chicago, it. It was the same situation. It was the Santa pub crawling. Oh, so a ton of Santa crawl. Oh, everywhere. It was ugly Christmas sweaters, Santas grinches. It was. Every bar on Clark street has a Kris Kringle theme or a Santa theme.

[Christy Lee]

Nice.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, it was pretty fun.

[Christy Lee]

I recently found out what Mrs. Kringle's first name is. Oh, you guys know this?

[Ace Cosby]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Sally.

[Christy Lee]

No, but Jessica is it really? Jessica Kringle is Mrs. Claus.

[Ace Cosby]

Is that according to Hallmark?

[Chick McGee]

That's according to the Christmas without a Santa Claus.

[Christy Lee]

That's right.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, is that historically accurate or.

[Christy Lee]

I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

Or they just make it up.

[Chick McGee]

But I. Mickey Rooney is the voice of Santa Claus, I think, in that.

[Tom Griswold]

Correct.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

He was. He was adopted by the Pringles or.

[Chick McGee]

Whatever, Something like that.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Something had red hair when he was a kid.

[Tom Griswold]

I have a.

[Chick McGee]

This is all Jessica Kringle is all factual evidence here according to ranking and back.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm not very big on conspiracy theories. There's a couple I kind of believe, and I'm not going to share them.

[Christy Lee]

Well, I'm glad that I could sway.

[Tom Griswold]

You into a. I do think that I have one that I'm not sure anybody's talking about, but those. Those lights hovering over New Jersey.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, yeah, the drones.

[Tom Griswold]

Drones? Are they drones or is it Santa Claus?

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe this could be the setup for the greatest Santa. A little stunt, proper joke needs to be set up. As you know, my theory lengthily. Lengthily, if that's a word. It could be Rudolph up there just flying around.

[Christy Lee]

A little recon.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Are they gonna find out what the hell those things are, by the way? Just asking for a friend as they fly over a military base. Base right now. We've been talking about great gift giving, and this is a absolute winner every time. Of course I'm talking about jewelry. You can't lose your fellows. Ladies, pay attention. Stephen Singer Jewelers. You can get this done. You could get this done before I finish talking about it. Actually, you go online to I hate stephensinger dot com. Look around for a couple of minutes, see what you like. For example, Stephen Singer Jewelers has those Anita diamond stud earrings starting at just 298 bucks. [e-mail] these, by the way, I should make this clear. These are earthborne diamonds. These aren't the fake, fake diamonds. These are real diamonds. That's what Steven specializes in. He's got beautiful bracelets, necklaces, you name it. Check it [e-mail] by the way. The full value guarantee, 100 day trade in, of course, if you want to upgrade. But you can send it back if she doesn't like him. Or if he doesn't like them. Or if you don't like them.

I'm exhausted from the incredible lovemaking of my wife. Oh, sorry.

[Chick McGee]

That's interesting.

[Tom Griswold]

Once again, Stephen Singer.

[Chick McGee]

Nobody heard anything.

[Tom Griswold]

Stephen Singer stands behind his jewels. That doesn't sound right, does it? Stephen Singer stands by his jewelry because if he stood in front of it, you couldn't see it. Tell him about Top Show Sentient. Tell him that his commercial message was precisely and carefully delivered with sincerity and accuracy from Tom. Okay, this is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

Christie Lee. Josh Arnold, Pat Godwin, Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee. Hello, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

[Ace Cosby]

A strip club DJ in Portland, Oregon is recovering after he was stabbed by a dance.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, man.

[Ace Cosby]

The victim, a Mr. Duncan Allen, works at the Casa Diablo vegan strip club.

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Ace Cosby]

That's the name of it.

[Tom Griswold]

See, that's right there.

[Chick McGee]

A vegan. What?

[Christy Lee]

I wonder how this works.

[Ace Cosby]

I don't know. He told kptv. Quote, I was on my computer getting some songs ready. Next thing I know I felt like a 500 pound man punched me in the back.

[Christy Lee]

Oh.

[Ace Cosby]

I turned around expecting there to be a huge dude about to fight me. And it was a dancer. She was standing there holding a knife. Mr. Allen, who suffered a collapsed lung, was taken to a hospital. Club owner Diablo Zuko really told the station he believes the dancer, a Peyton Lathan, was having a mental health crisis at the time. The 29 year old Ms. Lathan is facing assault charges as well as a charge of unlawful possession of a weapon. Ms. Lathan had worked at the club for 10 years. She was not a newborn.

[Tom Griswold]

Again, I'm sorry this guy got stabbed and everything, but a vegan strip club?

[Christy Lee]

Well, it is Portland.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, good point.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, yeah, that is really odd. So that means no leather, right? Among other things.

[Josh Arnold]

Vegan is just really about the diet. That's a whole different thing.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I thought the. No, no leather thing. Isn't that also a vegan?

[Josh Arnold]

I mean it's very common among vegans.

[Christy Lee]

So the vegan. So the food there has got to be all vegan, right? Not all strip clubs have food, but some do. I've eaten at a strip club.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you go there for the food.

[Josh Arnold]

Or for the stripping?

[Chick McGee]

There was. There was one around here that had a great prime rib sandwich for lunch.

[Christy Lee]

No kidding.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

This was a breakfast buffet.

[Josh Arnold]

Ham and legs.

[Christy Lee]

Our friend Tommy Johngan and I just finished a show. We went to a strip club and had breakfast.

[Chick McGee]

Nice.

[Josh Arnold]

It was awesome.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that all you do?

[Christy Lee]

It was all I ate. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Now see, if. If I'd given you that thing with the two dollar bills. Oh God, you would have been in heaven.

[Christy Lee]

This is astounding.

[Ace Cosby]

I know what, what happened over the weekend saying.

[Tom Griswold]

Because I mean I'm sure this lady paid her bail in ones all crumpled up. Disgusting.

[Christy Lee]

And Ace, did you ever DJ at a strip club? Yeah, I helped a friend out. You. You did what?

[Ace Cosby]

Helped a friend out.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay. For about how long did you do it? I mean if he need help on a Sunday or Saturday night.

[I]

Oh, I.

[Christy Lee]

Because I had always heard. I applied to be a DJ to strip club once.

[Chick McGee]

Like fill out the form and the whole thing.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I actually went to the place and interviewed.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

And I didn't want to do it because it was the morning shift, like 8 to 2 or something and. But I also been Warned. Just drama. Like a lot of drama. And some of the girls wouldn't tip. Tip out correctly. Right. So I play longer songs for them and I. Oh, okay. I was gonna say, if you played a certain song, they would just come up and scream at you. Or if, hey, that's my song.

[Ace Cosby]

Really? They're very possessive.

[Tom Griswold]

One of the guys used to work in this building, ended up being a full time strip club dj. You know what I'm talking about? He's only guy in the building smaller than you, Christy. And he was very small. He was like diminuture human being drama. And his entire tenure there, he never, never so much as got kissed.

[Josh Arnold]

That's not how you tip out.

[Ace Cosby]

Is that why you work there? To date a stripper?

[Tom Griswold]

I think. I think the fantasy would be take.

[Chick McGee]

One of the girls home.

[Christy Lee]

Because some probably do think that. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But not at all. And it put him off everything, I bet. But it was always, I can't believe you played Pour some sugar on Me. That's my song.

[Chick McGee]

That.

[Christy Lee]

No, thanks.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. But in any event, there is a vegan strip club. Good to know. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

In Portland, apparently.

[Christy Lee]

Ace, did you use your own voice or did you use that classic strip club button thing that makes them all sound the same?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, my.

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Ace Cosby]

They have a button?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, there's like a thing that. Where you can sound just. It makes you sound like a.

[Tom Griswold]

You can't. You can't say. You can't say the word. Yes. You have to say, hell yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Right, right, right.

[Tom Griswold]

That little machine.

[Ace Cosby]

I didn't know that.

[Christy Lee]

I don't know if it's a button, per se, but you can put it. It's a filter. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Who's here to party? A lot of the classes.

[Josh Arnold]

So you do like a. Welcome to the stage.

[Christy Lee]

Cinnamon coming to stage two. It's Porsche.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

You're better than the filter. That's. Yeah, yeah, that's good.

[Tom Griswold]

And Pat, don't you have a song about strippers?

[Josh Arnold]

Christmas song about strippers? I do, yes.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's right.

[Tom Griswold]

There aren't that many, but there's.

[Josh Arnold]

So, you know, Crystal and Amber, Oxy and Brandy, angel and Ginger, Raven and Candy would. Do you recall the most famous stripper of all? Susie, the sober stripper had a very healthy glow and if you breathalyzer, she would blow a point.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh.

[Josh Arnold]

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

[Tom Griswold]

Nice. Nice. Happy stripper. I've been doing little the vegan strip club. All the women have had hysterectomies. No eggs.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my.

[Ace Cosby]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Too soon. Sorry.

[Ace Cosby]

A Lyft driver in Florida got quite a shock after finding his passenger naked in the back seat. Seat. According to the Polk County Sheriff, the unnamed driver picked up his passenger in Lakeland. Sheriff's official said the driver heard a strange noise, turn around to see the man sitting on the back seat without shirt, pants and undies.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, no.

[Ace Cosby]

When responding deputies questioned the passenger, he repeatedly said he got a little naked after being overcome with a feeling. The 48 year old.

[Tom Griswold]

A little naked. Naked.

[Ace Cosby]

Was arrested on a charge of unlawful exposure of sexual organs.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's a lot. Naked.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, that is naked.

[Chick McGee]

Sounds like we're inside.

[Christy Lee]

That's.

[Josh Arnold]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, man. If you want to get naked, you know, take the bus, take the.

[Christy Lee]

Exactly. There's a place for you.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, no, you don't take an Uber. I mean, the guy have like a good excuse. Like, I'm actually Superman. Officer, I'm just changing. I forgot my. I forgot my suit. By the way, I always wonder where did Superman keep the suit?

[Ace Cosby]

Me too. Because there was no place. In a phone booth.

[Tom Griswold]

Not enough room.

[Chick McGee]

He knew a guy on the. Worked at the telephone company.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

He left a little. Left him in all the phone booths. Had them.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Ready to go no matter what, which one he'd run into.

[Tom Griswold]

But the phone booths were all glass, right?

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Josh Arnold]

Didn't he always have it on?

[Chick McGee]

I think, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I thought you were talking about what happened to the suit that he left because it was always underneath.

[Chick McGee]

Remember that one of them, he giant. He jumped into a phone booth. It wasn't a booth, it was just a kiosk.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that was, I think in the first Christopher Reeve, Superman.

[Chick McGee]

Right, But I mean.

[Tom Griswold]

So you're saying that. So the Superman suits on underneath.

[Christy Lee]

Because he would be running.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. But then what. Where'd the cape come from?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, where'd the. How would he.

[Chick McGee]

It was all in.

[Tom Griswold]

See it?

[Chick McGee]

No, he wore suits. Very baggy, if you'll notice.

[Tom Griswold]

Full cape hanging on his back.

[Ace Cosby]

Well, I think he'd notice.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, I've got a cape on right now. You guys have no. You're none the wiser.

[Tom Griswold]

I see.

[Chick McGee]

Well, so much for your secret identity.

[Ace Cosby]

That would be so cool. Yes, absolutely.

[Josh Arnold]

Walk around the cape.

[Ace Cosby]

It'd be awesome.

[Josh Arnold]

My dad did that.

[Christy Lee]

I'd be less. I'd be less Superman, more Jack the Ripper.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait a minute. Hang on. What did you just say?

[Josh Arnold]

My dad had a jacket that was very cape like.

[Christy Lee]

I.

[Tom Griswold]

Your dad was a theater director?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, he was.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sure he could pull it off.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, boy.

[Tom Griswold]

And Chick and I both saw Wolfman Jack and he was wearing a cape. I mean, Wolf man.

[Chick McGee]

You know what a cape. A cape is very slimming.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, really? Okay. All right. Yeah. And I saw Wolfman Jack at a radio convention and he had one of those. The wolf man had one of those kind of like a cowboy hat with the dingleberries on it. Whatever it's called.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, those are always hilarious.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And he was gigantic.

[Ace Cosby]

Like Argentinian. Looking very popular.

[Christy Lee]

Popular?

[Tom Griswold]

No, but I mean, he was over three bills easy. But he's real nice. He was chain smoking. They were either Campbell's or Lucky's.

[Ace Cosby]

In other words, no filter.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, they were. He liked a good party. That's how you get that great voice. So you can do. Do this. Hello there. Hello there. That's the Wolf Man. That's the real Wolf Man. Hello there, Wolf Man.

[Chick McGee]

Hello there.

[Tom Griswold]

I just said hello there.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Ace Cosby]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wait a minute.

[Chick McGee]

It.

[Tom Griswold]

That's. That's not the wolf.

[Ace Cosby]

Speaking of Superman, there have been renewed calls to Ban Tik Tok after several students were injured in connection with the so called Superman Challenge. Health authorities in North Macedonia, near Greece said at least 17 students in the ages range of 10 to 17 hospitalized with broken bones, con concussions and. Or contusions rather, and bruises after participating in this trend. According to Forbes, the challenge involves people lining up in two rows facing each other and extending their hands to form a cradle of arms. You guys, Right? Yeah. Then a person acting as Superman jumps and dives into this cradle and the group then pushes their arms up to launch the person in the air.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

So this could go wrong in many ways.

[Ace Cosby]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

When they could go wrong when they first enter this cradle. Cradle. Or when they exit.

[Christy Lee]

That's essentially just a trust fall.

[Ace Cosby]

The cradle is then supposed to catch them on the descent.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Ace Cosby]

A political.

[Tom Griswold]

What's happening to them? They're.

[Ace Cosby]

They're breaking bones and.

[Tom Griswold]

But no one died like they did during the Aquaman Challenge.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, well, that was. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Eight of your friends hold you underwater.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, my gosh.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, okay. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Political party in the country has since issued a statement condemning the Irresponsible spread of dangerous content and on social media.

[Tom Griswold]

Land the wrong way, you end up more like Christopher Reeves.

[Christy Lee]

Super. Awfully sad.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that was chilling. My fault too.

[Chick McGee]

Good thing for the holidays.

[Ace Cosby]

How about a lighter story? Video of a dog going viral today. She was caught honking a car horn in the mall parking lot.

[Christy Lee]

That's funny.

[Tom Griswold]

I love these.

[Ace Cosby]

Video captured by men. Brenna Boyd shows the annoyed looking boxer named Crystal.

[Christy Lee]

Boxer is a perfect dog to be annoyed and honking a horn, seated behind.

[Ace Cosby]

The wheel of her owner's car, pressing the horn with her paw. Ms. Boyd told CTV News that she first heard the horn when she went into the Savon Foods in British Columbia. But when she heard it blaring 10 minutes later, she decided to investigate.

[Christy Lee]

Save on. Save on. Got the groceries. Thank you.

[Ace Cosby]

That's when she found the unusual side of the dog repeatedly honking the horn and people surrounding the car laughing.

[Tom Griswold]

I just saw the picture for the first time. First of all, it's a, it's a white boxer, which I'd never seen before.

[Ace Cosby]

Like, hey, I'm done with this.

[Christy Lee]

You know, they say about white boxers.

[Tom Griswold]

You never bet on them. There it is.

[Christy Lee]

I mean, just holding it down.

[Ace Cosby]

Come on.

[Tom Griswold]

And then he's got his paw right on the horn, looking around like, hey.

[Josh Arnold]

What are you looking at?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm over here. What the hell?

[Christy Lee]

Wearing a vest, which is funny. So he looks more like a person.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, my God.

[Christy Lee]

Look at that.

[Tom Griswold]

Look at that guy.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, come on.

[Tom Griswold]

That's hilarious.

[Christy Lee]

And just naturally looking grumpy.

[Tom Griswold]

What a beautiful dog. I've never seen one that color.

[Chick McGee]

I've never been through anything. So my life.

[Tom Griswold]

Good blog.

[Christy Lee]

I send her in there for milk.

[Tom Griswold]

Who knows what she's bought.

[Chick McGee]

Absolutely unacceptable.

[Josh Arnold]

You had to list stick to it.

[Tom Griswold]

He said, the dog's thinking, this is the greatest squeaky toy I've ever had.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Because it takes a certain amount of pressure. The dog.

[Tom Griswold]

He knows what's going on.

[Ace Cosby]

What's going on. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Good for him. Good boy. Good dog.

[Christy Lee]

So long. And he's a good boy.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a doggy. They're all good.

[Chick McGee]

Have you seen the 800 numbers for the helping dogs out? And the guy answers the phone. Hi there. Yes. And by the way, thanks for calling calling dog hotline. But you are a good boy. Yes. You're welcome. Thank you. Thank you. And he's talking to dog. See? And okay. I guess you have to own a dog to think it's cute.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I think it's great. Now I'll go ahead.

[Ace Cosby]

Chrissy Police in the UK say they pulled a driver over whose license had expired more than 40 years ago. Traffic officers stopped the car at a gas station in Dover. Officers soon discovered the license had expired in 1981 after it had been revoked for a drunk driving offense.

[Tom Griswold]

We'll give the guy credit.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, he did fine.

[Tom Griswold]

Did 40 years without getting pulled over.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah. Well, officers seized, or rather issued a traffic ordinance and seized his vehicle, so he's not driving anymore.

[Tom Griswold]

Whoa. Yeah, he should have said. But, Officer, I was just on my way to the license branch to renew it.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

How am I supposed to get there?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, that old diddy.

[Tom Griswold]

But it's kind of a good sign. He has been pulled over in 40 years.

[Ace Cosby]

Yes. Or he just got lucky.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, 40 years ago. Well, I don't know about. In England, but 40 years ago. Were there pictures on. When did they start putting pictures on driver's licenses?

[Chick McGee]

I want to say sometime about the 70s. I want to say sometime in the 80s.

[Tom Griswold]

80S.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know.

[Ace Cosby]

Because I got my license in 76 and I did not have a picture on it.

[Tom Griswold]

There was a very brief period of time in which. Which I think it was called Bank Americard.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

They put your picture on your credit card.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that. I'm surprised. I thought that was a great idea. That. That's. That didn't last more than a year as far as I recall.

[Ace Cosby]

Well, Costco does it. Why don't.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Ace Cosby]

I don't know. Huh.

[Chick McGee]

They know so much more about you now, they don't need your picture.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, call Mark Zuckerberg. And he goes. I know where he was. Yeah, he's. He's. Okay. You're gonna get let up. Go. Well, coming up. What do you got, Christie? I know. We're going to talk with comedian Reno Collier. Reno's got his new book out there.

[Ace Cosby]

By the way, we have a message in a bottle. I know how you guys love those stories. I know. Well, I meant.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I know.

[Tom Griswold]

You get the thing about. You said about bus etiquette.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, bus etiquette. If you're traveling on the bus.

[Tom Griswold]

I will be doing that soon.

[Christy Lee]

Now, you really. That is not true.

[Chick McGee]

The Aspen bus for skiers is not what I'm talking about.

[Christy Lee]

Shuttle.

[Tom Griswold]

It's in veil boy. I'll send you a picture of me on the bus.

[Christy Lee]

It's not a bus of Julia Roberts would get on it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

Okay, so maybe that'll help you with.

[Chick McGee]

The shoe in the Instagram at the Chick McGee. Go ahead and check those out.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you very much. I believe we're going to be joined by authority. Yeah, could you tell I put enough sauce on that that it sounds like I'm somewhat skeptical? It's comedian Reno Collier. And Reno, it's. I know you have your book out. Do you have a copy of it right there.

[I]

I got it right here, buddy.

[Tom Griswold]

There you go. That's the wrong side. Okay. It's a Country Fried takes by Reno Collier and how about that? And it's available exclusively. And where is it available, by the way?

[I]

At reno. Call your comedy.com and dude, they're selling like I'm blown Away.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[I]

And I. Yeah. And I want to thank everybody. We're on our fourth order, filling them.

[Tom Griswold]

Up, and now four dozen is what it was. That 24.

[I]

I get them four. I get them four at a time. There's so 16. 16 books, but if I get to 17, it's just gonna be a Christmas to remember.

[Tom Griswold]

Now this. These books, this is your. Your country fried taste. They are.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[I]

And I was going to read one today, actually, out of the book. People online were like, read one that's in it now so they know what's in it.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, worthy.

[Chick McGee]

It's a Christmas one.

[I]

I'm sorry, what did you say people.

[Christy Lee]

Online know were doing that or you had a busy week.

[Tom Griswold]

So Reno. Josh.

[I]

Let me tell you something, Josh. When you know somebody really well and you care about them, you. You don't call them out in front of others.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, did you ever love them?

[Tom Griswold]

I had a bad.

[I]

When they say something, you go, you know what? I'm going to ride along with this because I care about that person.

[Tom Griswold]

When you started this, you never thought you'd have a. Have a defense to contend with while.

[I]

Trying to be a comedian. Especially with my friends, I expect somebody on the street to go, hey, man, I get it. You didn't do anything. But not my friends.

[Christy Lee]

I'm as helpful as someone on the street.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you? Are you, by the way, are you working New Year's Eve?

[I]

No, sir. I'm going to pick up my mom in Virginia. She doesn't fly much. It's hard to get through the airport, so I'm driving to pick her up and bring her back here, and she's going to spend the whole holidays with us.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, nice.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, really?

[I]

Yeah. I'm excited, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's good.

[I]

We're going to have 10 hours in the car together tomorrow, so it's going to be. We'll get to know each other again real quick, you know.

[Tom Griswold]

Yikes. 10 hours.

[Chick McGee]

You should record that. Put that up as a podcast or something.

[I]

It's good. It's good. She packs up fried chicken and stuff, and I eat it the whole way, and we talk about old time. It's fun.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe she can help you write a new country. Fried tape.

[I]

Okay, you know what? Let me tell you something.

[Josh Arnold]

That was a shot.

[I]

As an author and intellectual.

[Josh Arnold]

Go get slide.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. It's been beneath you to respond.

[I]

It's beneath me.

[Ace Cosby]

Did you.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you always or ever find it difficult if you were doing a standup show to know that your mom was in the audience? Yes.

[I]

It's Anytime you invite somebody you love like that, something's gonna go wrong. Something. I remember I was opening when I first started out. My aunt and uncle drove like five hours to see me at a Holiday Inn, and the bartender got drunk and got fired and locked up the microphone and all the sound equipment and left. So they watched me on stage, and I got five minutes in. The guy shows back up. They gave him his job back. He's hammered, and he's setting up the microphone while I'm doing my show in front of me.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, man.

[I]

Yeah, it's always a mess. It's always a mess.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, let's get to it. Now, that once again, the book Country Fry take at. Yes. Where is it found again? Reno.

[I]

It's [e-mail].

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Okay.

[I]

And reviews are not up there from Josh Arnold.

[Christy Lee]

No, no. But by popular request, we have one from the book today.

[I]

Thank you. Thank you, Josh. You saw that online, too. I appreciate your kindness.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, sir.

[I]

So this is the Christmas one. This is the Christmas one that's in the book from last year. So today I'd like to give credit to two jobs that I think deserve some love around the holiday season. My honorable mention goes to the grocery store checkout people. Now, I'm sure during the year constant scanning and bagging is monotonous, but the month between Thanksgiving and Christmas has got to be straight hell. Everyone attempting to be extra jovial and chatty. You have eight straight hours of listening to bad jokes. $7 for a dozen eggs. Good Lord Jesus, marrying the shepherds. I know what I'm asking Santa for my own damn chicken. Too bad bakers don't make eggs, you know what I mean? Because there'd be 13 of them.

[Reno Collier]

Or worse.

[I]

People come through and fire off way too much personal information in two minutes. Like the clerk knows them personally. Well, this year I have to buy special food because Phyllis can't eat gluten. Last year, she didn't poop right till Easter. After my eating my stuffing, then, you know her sister Lois's kid puffs up like a Christmas parade float if he smells peanut dust. You know what I mean? But I guess it's better than the meth his dad sniffs.

[Tom Griswold]

Merry Christmas.

[I]

Merry Christmas. So I tell you what, if we don't close the board. I forgot this part. If we don't close the. We don't close the border. We're all going to be speaking Chinese by next Christmas. So that was last year.

[Tom Griswold]

Joker. Is that.

[I]

Now, let me get through this for the love Of God, it's Christmas. Oh, God. So how about this year we just tell people, thank you, we appreciate you, and close with a simple, merry Christmas. Now, the winner of the toughest gig during the holidays has got to be the elementary school band teacher. Now we only have to sit through an hour of this. The teacher's been listening to this garbage for the last four months, knowing that this day was eventually coming. Me, it's the only class that has to show the entire town how little progress they've made. The first half of the year, the teachers dealt with lost instruments. They lost a flute section because they tried to have the kids learn Baby, it's Cold Outside. And five wine moms went to the school board to protest, even though it was only an instrumental. And after all that, the teacher still has to sell this train wreck to the audience. Like, it's amazing. Amazing. Okay, folks, thank you for being here. All the children have worked so hard these last few months to bring you this holiday extravaganza. Now sit back, relax, and enjoy our rewritten version of the Christmas classic, Baby, it's Cold Outside. So I got you an Uber and a rape whistle. I love these meat.

[Christy Lee]

All right, kids, that's a hard word.

[Tom Griswold]

Made in China.

[I]

I'm gonna keep going. I don't care. Now let's go to the solos, okay? On the drums, click, clack, kang kong, kang clack, click. And now it's the sax. And the audience just claps. Whenever we see a kid we kind of know do something, you just sit there trying to be positive, you know? The clanging and spit sounds were much better this year. Then some kid whose mom works at the school snuck an electric guitar in and plays an eight minute solo of Smoke on the Water. Playing the same three damn chords over and over. Dun dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. Then to close it all out.

[Tom Griswold]

That's four chords, by the way.

[Josh Arnold]

That's four chords.

[I]

As an author, I will let that go. Here, I'm gonna start over again. All right, then to close it all out, the teacher pulls out a violin and she plays a face melting rendition of Orange Blossom Special. I mean, the damn strings are smoking while she's playing it. And you don't know if she's the greatest fiddle player you've ever seen or it's just in contrast to the sounds of the car wreck you just sat through. Then after the teacher's solo, the teacher has a look on their face like, as you can see, I'm a badass. It's not my fault your kids are Stupid. So if you see someone at work during the holidays that looks like they could snap at any second, just give them a simple hang in there. This too will pass. And merry Christmas. It'll all be over soon. I'm Reno Collier, and even with distractions, that was my country fried tank.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you, Reno. Thank you. Reno's book is. Renocallyourcomedy.com is where you'll find it.

[I]

My book's called country fried takes, but you can buy it at Reno Collier Comedy.

[Tom Griswold]

What did I say?

[I]

You just said it backwards. It's okay. I forgive you. I don't make fun of my friends who do things stupid.

[Tom Griswold]

I see.

[Chick McGee]

We can all learn from that.

[Tom Griswold]

Have a great holiday, Reno. Thank you very much.

[I]

And I'll be with Jeff Foxworthy at the Fisher Center.

[Tom Griswold]

I saw that. Coming up February 21st. It's a Friday night show with Jeff Foxworthy and Reno Collier. I'll give you some details on that company coming up. Reno, once again, have a. Have a great Christmas and good luck.

[I]

Merry Christmas.

[Christy Lee]

Good luck with your mom. Love you.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you, buddy.

[Ace Cosby]

Safe travels.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, Coming up, comedian Dusty Slay. This is the Bob and Tom show.

[Dusty Slay]

Thanks for listening to the Bob and Tom show this morning. The show is also out there for you on our YouTube channel. Watch and subscribe.

[Tom Griswold]

What the hell's.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom show. Christy Lee at the SILAC Newsday desk.

[Ace Cosby]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Josh Arnold at the I hate Steven singer sidekick chair.

[Christy Lee]

Hi there.

[Chick McGee]

There's Pat Godwin.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

Ace Cosby's here. I'm Chick McGee.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

And here's Tom Griswold.

[Tom Griswold]

And I think we're gonna hook up via satellite to the very handsome. There he is. It's Dusty Slay. The man, the hair, the hat. And Dusty, you're hitting the road. I'm looking at this schedule in2025. You got some great gigs coming up starting in mid January. Pensacola, Evansville, Indy, Fresno, Boise, Colorado Springs, Bakersfield. The man is on the road. Are you excited about this?

[Reno Collier]

I'm pumped to be here. I appreciate it. You know, when I'm on zoom, it always gives me the mirrored image of myself. And I don't know what it is, but seeing myself the other way, I'm like, what's wrong with that guy? You ever see that?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Hell yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it's you back.

[Reno Collier]

Yeah. It's like, who is that?

[Josh Arnold]

I look like that.

[Reno Collier]

I got problems, you know?

[Tom Griswold]

I always like it when you. Whenever you're doing this and you make an adjustment, it's that weird thing where all of a sudden your face is right up in the camera.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[Reno Collier]

And it just flipped and it just feels like everything about my face is wrong. I'm like, why? Why is it just seeing it the other way suddenly so wrong? I feel good.

[Christy Lee]

Good.

[Tom Griswold]

I like the painting behind you. What is it? A flying horse. What's going on in back here?

[Reno Collier]

Two horses back there. There's a black horse and a white horse running in a field. I found it in a thrift shop and I thought, this is great. This is Steve Martin. People think that it's Jeffrey Epstein. And I don't know why people think I have that on my wall.

[Tom Griswold]

That it. Well, it's kind of a high contrast drawing. And it does look like Jeffrey Epstein.

[Chick McGee]

I know that you said it's the Steve Martin. It looks like.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, the very young Steve Martin. Yeah. Very good, Very good. Now, are you home for the holidays or do you have more gigs before the Christmas holiday?

[Reno Collier]

No, I was in. I was just in Vegas last week, and now I'm about to go do some military shows. I'm doing a few Air Force bases.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, good for you.

[Reno Collier]

Yeah, I've never done that before, so I'm a little scared about it, but I'm pumped.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you'll do great.

[Reno Collier]

Yeah, I'm pumped about it. Sometimes I worry that, you know, maybe I'm too artsy of a comedian. And I. And I, you know, and they're gonna. I don't know, but I think it's gonna be great.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, to artsy, what was the extent of your education?

[Reno Collier]

Oh, I don't mean educated artsy.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, so, so, okay, you mean like paint by numbers artsy?

[Reno Collier]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Reno Collier]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm like, yeah, I'm thrift store artsy. I'm community college artsy.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, all right.

[Reno Collier]

I've done ceramic.

[Tom Griswold]

I see. No, you'll kill. You'll kill. They're gonna. They're gonna love you. I noticed I'm looking at your schedule. You're playing a bunch of very nice theaters. This is really cool.

[Reno Collier]

Yeah. I mean, so far, my whole calendar is all theaters. This year it's 2025. It's looking like a big year. I mean, I almost want to work some clubs in. Just because I'm, you know, that's what I'm used to doing. But it's nice, it's fun.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, are there any jokes you're gonna have to give up in the year 2025? Is there any anything?

[Reno Collier]

Oh, well, you know, I'M filming a special at the end of February. Not, not for, not for any New Year's resolution. I gave up those a long time ago. It never works. I used to always try to give up smoking, you know, and I would smoke so much on New Year's I would like, I'd be like, I want to hurt myself so that on New Year's Day I definitely don't smoke.

[Tom Griswold]

How'd that go?

[Chick McGee]

I.

[Reno Collier]

It usually worked for New Year's Day, but, you know, January 2nd, I was ready to go again.

[Tom Griswold]

I say, I say. Okay, good. Once again, we're speaking with Dusty Slay. Dusty Slay is a distinguished comedian. And did you finish community college? Did you get a degree after all?

[Reno Collier]

No, no, I did two days. I went to community college. I was bored. And this community college was right across the street from my high school. And I did two classes. I did an English class and a math class. There were no attractive women in my classes. And several people from my high school, I thought, you know what? Let's not do this.

[Tom Griswold]

Probably a good move now, are you? And we. Where's your home right now? Who all is home these days?

[Reno Collier]

Well, my wife. I got two kids. I got two. A three year old, a two year old daughter, a one year old son. Three year old daughter. I don't know how old they are.

[Tom Griswold]

But I know the feeling. So the reason I bring it up is I knew that you had the two kids. I was just kind of wondering. They're kind of young enough so you can sort of get away with Christmas presents. You're not going to probably get called on the carpet too much. Have you taken care of any of this or is someone else doing all the Christmas shopping?

[Reno Collier]

Yeah, my wife really does all the, all the shopping for me to get things. But it's like my kids, you know, presents are too easy now. They just get presents all day long. They don't appreciate anything. I took some toys away from my daughter yesterday as a punishment and I think she's already forgot about them. I don't even think she's being punished.

[Tom Griswold]

You raise. You raise a good point. But they're so young that they're not really into. They don't need an iPhone yet, I hope.

[Reno Collier]

Oh, no. I hope to never get them an iPhone.

[Tom Griswold]

Good luck.

[Reno Collier]

I hope the world has ended by the time they get old enough to get iPhones.

[Tom Griswold]

Well. And the iPhone may be part of that ending.

[Reno Collier]

Yeah. I have been reading books of them though. I read Pinocchio to my daughter the other day and I Don't know if you've read Pinocchio recently, but what a weird book. I mean, Pinocchio's creator, he's just a puppet, and then a witch comes in and makes him real. And then he gets kidnapped twice in two days. I don't know what, I don't know who Geppetto is to have a kid. I think social services should be called and maybe the witch's license should be revoked. You know, I've never licensed. Go around creating real people out here all the time, creating some kind of Chucky situation in Geppetto's house.

[Tom Griswold]

Once again, we're speaking with comedian Dusty Slay. And I always remember this about Dusty. At one point, he was a waiter, a service guy. Was it an Applebee's? What was it, a Chuck E. Cheese?

[Reno Collier]

Oh, no, no. You know, I lived in Charleston, South Carolina, and I was working at a seafood restaurant called Hymen Seafood.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's right. And we've gotten some nice emails from them.

[Chick McGee]

Sure.

[Reno Collier]

Oh, yeah, well, it's a hotspot. And, you know, I always say it's a Hymen Seafood located on the same block as a restaurant called Sticky Fingers. And you know, and I say, not everybody get that joke, but it's okay. I didn't get it for a long time. But no, people would ask me, they would go, they would say, because it's owned by a family with the last name Hymen, they would say, oh, are you one of the hymens? And I go, yeah, because they named me Dusty Hyman.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I would have definitely gone with Dusty Slay. Now, are you, are you watching any videos with the kids at this point?

[Reno Collier]

Yeah, we watch. You know, she likes Paw Patrol. I actually took my daughter to live Paw Patrol. I've been there and it is. That's the worst show I've ever seen.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, really?

[Reno Collier]

I don't see a lot of shows. I'm not a play kind of guy, but, man, you could see the character running, the costume, give us a little illusion that it's a real dog.

[Tom Griswold]

But now the question is, did the kid, did the, did the kids like it?

[Reno Collier]

I don't know. I think so, but it's like she didn't talk much during it, which makes me think she was engaged. But I just, I'm just thinking, even for a two year old, I'm like, I'm thinking she's sitting there going, I see the guy running. Yeah, I know. This is not a dog. You've ruined the show for me now.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I Enjoyed the Paw Patrol. The one that was terrible was the one with the singer. Singers. The kids bop.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

They just got a bunch of local kids to come and they were lip syncing to. It was really awful.

[Ace Cosby]

Kids enjoy it.

[Tom Griswold]

I. I think that one may have really tipped the scales.

[Ace Cosby]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

We're going to some. Something a little more sophisticated these days. Well, Dusty, have a great. Have a great holiday. And I'm looking at this schedule. You're going to be in so many great spots. We're going to have to come see you.

[Reno Collier]

Well, I appreciate you having me. I always like to tell people that my show is relatively clean, meaning that I do a show for adults. But you could bring your grandmother, you could bring your aunt to the show. They're not going to be embarrassed. No, you brought them to the show. It's a fun show.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, very good, very good, very good. And real quick, when is the last time you got a haircut? You got the. Your. If you didn't have the glasses on, you'd be Jesus with a. With a trucker hat.

[Reno Collier]

Yeah. Look at this, huh?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm.

[Reno Collier]

I'm about two haircuts a year. That's what I like to do. I like to do one about every six months. I let it get real long, and then I cut it back and then I let it grow again.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Reno Collier]

Yeah, I don't like a lot of haircuts. I don't like the appointment. I don't like going in there. You have to sit and you have to look at yourself in the mirror while talking to somebody.

[Tom Griswold]

Just like this.

[Reno Collier]

Yes. Yeah, it's hard to do.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, Dusty.

[Reno Collier]

I don't like seeing myself as I'm talking to other people. It's. I'm like. I look at myself and I go, what are you saying?

[Christy Lee]

Great seeing you, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, thanks, Dusty.

[Reno Collier]

Happy holiday, you guys.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, have a great Christmas.

[Reno Collier]

I hope that Ace gets a better camera angle. I like seeing him, but it's a weird angle for him.

[Chick McGee]

All right, fair enough.

[Christy Lee]

You don't know what you've just done, Dusty. There could be seven guys working on that for three weeks.

[Tom Griswold]

The Ace cam. Okay, thanks, dad.

[Reno Collier]

All right.

Coming up, we have our bus etiquette story. We have a message in a bottle. I know how much you love that. We have a guy arrested for trespassing. And in Japan, they're giving workers a four day work week for a very interesting reason. We'll talk about it.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, well, we'll find out. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Top show. Josh Arnold, Christie Lee, Pat Godwin, Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee. Boy, this sounds like a merry go round gone wrong.

[Ace Cosby]

What's.

[Christy Lee]

What's.

[Tom Griswold]

It's jingle bells.

[Chick McGee]

I know, it's. It almost sounds maniacal. And I shouldn't mention this, but we just got this email. Okay, ready? Dear Chick, I just want to say that things Tom finds fascinating is fascinating. Yeah, that's from Ashley in West Virginia. There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

I certainly agree with you.

[Chick McGee]

The latest and fascinating item is the Scoragami online. Thomas found that.

[Tom Griswold]

I know you found it and turned me onto it. I think it's just Amazing.

[Chick McGee]

We've mentioned it before, but this time it stuck.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, Scoragami, it's. It's. They follow scores that have never happened before in the NFL, and there was one yesterday. What was it? 48 to 42 or something?

[Christy Lee]

That's correct.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that right?

[Chick McGee]

48.

[Tom Griswold]

42 never happened before in the NFL. I never would have guessed that.

[Chick McGee]

That's a Scoragami.

[Tom Griswold]

And I didn't know Scormi was still out there. As I said earlier, I thought they'd folded. Thank you. We now turn to Christie Lee. She's at the SILEC insurance news desk.

[Chick McGee]

Mind your way. Okay, here we go.

[Ace Cosby]

If you happen to be traveling this holiday season via bus. Oh, we have some etiquette tips for you. A new poll from the travel booking platform known as bus bud.

[Christy Lee]

Masturbate under a blanket. Is that one of them?

[Ace Cosby]

Sheds light on the bad behaviors of father bus riders.

[Chick McGee]

Common sense.

[Christy Lee]

Try not to piss your pants more than three times.

[Ace Cosby]

According to the survey of over 4,500 passengers worldwide. We have this.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Reclining the seat without asking first is number nine on the list. Number eight, Arguing with other passengers.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm only taking this bus because I. I have an earache. I. I usually fly private.

[Ace Cosby]

Number seven.

[Christy Lee]

Is that right, ma'am?

[Ace Cosby]

Leaving trash around your seat.

[Tom Griswold]

That would include bodily fluids.

[Ace Cosby]

Number six, Passing gas or burping.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Number five. Talking.

[Tom Griswold]

That's supposed to talk in a bus?

[Ace Cosby]

Not.

[Christy Lee]

I'm sure there's. There's a lot of rambling.

[Ace Cosby]

I imagine before smoking or vaping.

[Tom Griswold]

I used to be somebody.

[Chick McGee]

I have no d. I'm riding a.

[Ace Cosby]

Boy bus, playing loud music. Top the list as the most annoying things passengers do. Number three was poor sex or poor personal hygiene. And number two was sexual activity.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, sexual activity on a bus. Try to keep it to a minimum, folks.

[Chick McGee]

Right.

[Ace Cosby]

So loud music. I think I would be more annoyed by the sexual activity than the loud music.

[Christy Lee]

Well, you're doing it in reverse, though. Loud music was number four.

[Ace Cosby]

No, it was number one. I screwed up because I didn't read it.

[Christy Lee]

Oh.

[Ace Cosby]

Properly. It's my fault. I'm bad.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, you gotta have. If. If somebody can charm a lady on a bus.

[Ace Cosby]

I told you my bus story. When I was 15 years old, I had to take the bus, the Greyhound and the guy.

[Christy Lee]

Easy to the guy. What?

[Ace Cosby]

The guy with the bag and the rum and.

[Christy Lee]

Oh.

[Ace Cosby]

At one point I looked at him and he looked at me and he's like. He started talking and I got up out of the seat and I went to the bus driver and he goes, you sit right behind me, honey. Don't you go back at that bus.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I just need a little attention.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

How old were you?

[Ace Cosby]

Very scary. I was 15. Yeah, I didn't look 15 at 15, by the way.

[Tom Griswold]

So the guy with the guy whipped out the bottle of rum.

[Ace Cosby]

He had the rum and the he. And that's the first time I'd ever seen anybody drink liquor out of a, you know, brown paper bag. I didn't know.

[Christy Lee]

Classic.

[Ace Cosby]

I was 15, but I know.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that still a thing on the boat bus? The.

[Chick McGee]

Is that still thing at all?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, proper bus etiquette.

[Ace Cosby]

Well, I think you have to hide your liquor.

[Chick McGee]

Don't you put your liquor in a brown paper bag.

[Christy Lee]

Try not to comment on the schnapps vomit in the seat next to you.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Crying baby. Not on the list though. That's good.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that's nice.

[Ace Cosby]

Have you ever taken a Greyhound bus ever?

[Chick McGee]

Not the Aspen bus?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I have quite a. Quite a few times.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I have too. It's humiliating.

[Tom Griswold]

I've. I've taken.

[Josh Arnold]

And humbling.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, I. With school, we'd go on.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I don't mind it. I mean, to me it's as comfortable as flying. So.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah. Other than the guy, if I'm more comfortable.

[Christy Lee]

You can actually stand without getting screamed at immediately.

[Ace Cosby]

True.

[Tom Griswold]

So. Because now where were this. Where was this bus ride to and from?

[Christy Lee]

Mostly from St. Louis to Chicago, which would was about five, six hours.

[Ace Cosby]

Cuz it stops about every half hour, doesn't it?

[Christy Lee]

No, the train did. That's when I real. That's when I went, oh, it's faster to take a bus than it is a train.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, really?

[Christy Lee]

Yes. The train stopped every 20 minutes. What the hell are we doing?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but it's romantic on a train.

[Christy Lee]

I hated it. It would have been romantic.

[Tom Griswold]

The great Steve Goodman song that Arlo Guthrie made famous. City of New Orleans is a great romantic song about riding a train.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I wish it had been anything like that.

[Tom Griswold]

It wouldn't be, you know, riding on the, you know, Wilbur's bus tour.

[Christy Lee]

Well, I think you're discounting Beard Al Yankovic's Another One Rides the Bus.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, true there.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

You're gonna sit by you. Another one rides the bus.

[Chick McGee]

Another one ride the bus.

[Josh Arnold]

And another one farts another one.

[Tom Griswold]

Are there a lot of dating things you think started on a bus?

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, boy.

[Tom Griswold]

People meet romantically. Do you think Hallmark could Hallmark pull that off?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, of course.

[Tom Griswold]

2.

[Christy Lee]

Two people traveling on A bus for whatever reason.

[Josh Arnold]

And then guys a millionaire because he's afraid of flying.

[Christy Lee]

Sure. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That have to be something of the guys had eye surgery. Can't fly. Some. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Something went kind of wrong.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And then. But the fellow. If it were a Hallmark movie, the fellow passengers would be a little bit more upscale than, you know, if a guy pissed his pants, he'd be wearing an adult diaper. That kind of thing.

[Christy Lee]

That. Yes, exactly. Yeah. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

So we're watching a movie over the holiday. We. Over the weekend. Weekend. And it's a movie. Don't make fun of me. But it's a movie based on Mary, the mother of Jesus.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, come on.

[Josh Arnold]

What a fairy tale.

[Christy Lee]

I wouldn't make fun of you.

[Ace Cosby]

And they. It's. We don't know much about Mary's life before she became the mother of Jesus, do we?

[Chick McGee]

So I'm pretty sure she was a temp.

[Ace Cosby]

Fictionalized.

[Tom Griswold]

Do they have her in the secretarial pool?

[Ace Cosby]

No, they don't have her in the secretarial.

[Tom Griswold]

You think she could get that glass ceiling thing cleared up with her son?

[Ace Cosby]

But she's at the river and she's, you know, washing her clothes in the river, and Joseph happens to see her across the riverbank.

[Tom Griswold]

Sure.

[Ace Cosby]

And she has a scarf that gets blown off into the wind. And he goes, oh, I can get that for you. And he jumps into the river. And I looked at Andy and I go, oh, it's the biblical meet cute.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Which is not exactly how they think that happened, but obviously the. The writers were Hallmark fans, because that's sweet. Exactly how it looked. It was the. It was a biblical meet cute. I thought immediately, Josh, you have.

[Tom Griswold]

You've been toying with the idea. Are you still working secretly on your Hallmark movie?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Is there a bus involved?

[Christy Lee]

No, there's no bus.

[Tom Griswold]

I think this would be. They probably haven't done this one yet.

[Ace Cosby]

Which one?

[Tom Griswold]

I bet they've done a train, though.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, the bus. Oh, oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

No, I have seen one with a bus, but it wasn't all about the bus. They just had to ride the bus for a moment of their trip.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, good. All righty. What else you got, Christy?

[Ace Cosby]

A 132 year old message in a bottle was discovered deep inside the walls of a Scottish lighthouse.

[Chick McGee]

SOS to the world.

[Ace Cosby]

The BBC reports engineers found the bottle during an inspection of the Korswall lighthouse.

[Christy Lee]

Boy, this is a big so what that Tom just loved.

[Ace Cosby]

Dated September 4th.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, this.

[Christy Lee]

I mean, this one, Josh, this is.

[Tom Griswold]

All about this Is all about eternal life.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, wait, it's better.

[Tom Griswold]

You're missing the whole point of a message in a bottle. It's reaching out to the universe to tell you something.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, it tells you this. Dated September 4, 1892, it reveals the names of three engineers who installed a new type of light in the 100 foot tower, along with the name of the lighthouse's three keepers. Wow.

[Christy Lee]

So this is more of. This isn't even really a message in a bot. I mean, sure, it might be in a bottle, but it was never put to see.

[Ace Cosby]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you ever work on a house or something and you wrote your name on the drywall on the back of it when you installed it? Something like that.

[Christy Lee]

I haven't done that. No.

[Ace Cosby]

I've done the concrete in the basement where you put your handprint in it.

[Tom Griswold]

Sure.

[Christy Lee]

No, I worry about things like resale. I don't.

[Tom Griswold]

Graffiti.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Buy a house to sell a house.

[Tom Griswold]

You can do a gag. Josh. You could put a note inside a bottle.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

And then the note says, do not open this bottle. If you do, your life is in danger. But see, to read the note, in order to access the note now, what.

[Christy Lee]

You should do is you put a $2 bill inside a bottle.

[Chick McGee]

There you go. Now you got something. See what happens? Sit back and watch the fun.

[Tom Griswold]

What? I forget, what year was this?

[Ace Cosby]

1892.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And I think the note said something like, the Trilateral Commission is going to blow up the Titanic. Titanic. It's a shame nobody opened that thing.

[Christy Lee]

And it sure is. Yeah. Yeah. We all know the Triumvirate had.

[Tom Griswold]

They were.

[Christy Lee]

After they put that ice.

[Chick McGee]

I thought it was five, the pentavert.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, that's right.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. It is five.

[Tom Griswold]

I thought it was try.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, no, well, back then it was try that the two more members weren't in until. What else do we have?

[Ace Cosby]

The Tokyo government giving workers a four day work week in a bid to boost morale. Record low fertility rates, Josh.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay.

[Ace Cosby]

Tokyo Metropolitan Government said the new arrangement will give employees three days off every week. That means Friday's the day to do it, apparently.

[Tom Griswold]

So technically now. Yeah. No, no, no, no. By all means. Is it everybody or just people of a certain age that are fertile?

[Ace Cosby]

It doesn't say.

[Christy Lee]

I think it's mostly Japanese people, Right?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, it is in Japan.

[Chick McGee]

What are we. What are we doing?

[Ace Cosby]

Japan's fertility rate reached.

[Christy Lee]

It really wasn't any reason to get.

[Chick McGee]

No. Okay.

[Ace Cosby]

Another record low in June. And according to the Ministry of Health, labor and Welfare, There were only 727,277 births recorded last year and a fertility rate dropping to a fresh low of 1.2.

[Christy Lee]

I blame Japanese porn.

[Ace Cosby]

For a population to remain stable, it needs a fertility rate of 2.0 or 2.1 double.

[Josh Arnold]

Get to it.

[Christy Lee]

Japanese porn is so crazy.

[Tom Griswold]

And this is the stuff. What is the deal with it again?

[Christy Lee]

A lot of it's like anime.

[Tom Griswold]

And don't they pixelate the genitalia?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, they do. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

They absolutely do.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Dispose that. They're like Japanese teens that are now fixated on that.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, man.

[Tom Griswold]

They finally get a real woman, she has to have a graphic of a pixelated vagina over her actual mommy parts.

[Ace Cosby]

Turn the kid on those.

[Christy Lee]

Well, I think some of them grow up. What do you mean you don't have tentacles coming out of there? I don't want anything to do with you. It gets weird. What do they call that? We've had it. It's always listed in the top 10 porn categories.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

It's like Hy Hente. That's what it. Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And there are.

[Christy Lee]

Is that what it is?

[Tom Griswold]

Octopuses and stuff?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, they're always fairies or tentacled monsters or.

[Chick McGee]

I thought Hente was just wings. Japanese animation, maybe. Maybe you're right. I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

That's. I think that's anime. Isn't it anime? Okay, so this is interesting is that they're doing this in Tokyo. But I'm just. My question was, is it. If you've got an office, is the guy that's 55 years old, they're going to give him the day off too? Or just the young stud that's 35 with a hot wife.

[Ace Cosby]

They have to do all of them.

[Christy Lee]

They could give the 55 year old they want.

[Tom Griswold]

It's Japan.

[Christy Lee]

A woman over 445 absolutely has to work. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, stop it.

[Tom Griswold]

They don't. They don't.

[Josh Arnold]

You're a stud at 55, weren't you? We're not putting us out to see.

[Tom Griswold]

That's right.

[Chick McGee]

That's right. Right.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I see. Okay. But I mean for the ladies, I guess is the question that.

[Ace Cosby]

Of course our time is up.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't think Phyllis is going to be spouting out any more kids. Let's make her come in and run the secretarial pool next.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. At least mop.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Would it kill you to run them off?

[Ace Cosby]

Yes, it would.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Ace Cosby]

A man in Japan was arrested for trespassing and breaking into more than a thousand properties. But he says it's just his hobby.

[Christy Lee]

Well, I just like looking at places.

[Chick McGee]

That's right. Yeah. Mostly places I can, you know, I keep track. I have a scrapbook.

[Christy Lee]

I like to go to places I'm not allowed. Really.

[Ace Cosby]

According to the Mainechi newspaper, the 37 year old office worker told police quote, breaking into other people's homes is a hobby of mine. I've done it, oh, over a thousand times.

[Tom Griswold]

And he's alive.

[Ace Cosby]

I get a thrill wondering if someone will find me or not.

[Christy Lee]

Pretty exciting.

[Ace Cosby]

To make my calm sweat. And he says it relieves stress for him.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Here's an audio tribute to trespassing. It's very short. This is the band Dose Boys. Oh, yeah. And the sign said, anybody caught trespassing will be shot on site. So I jumped over the fence and yelled at the house, hey, what gives?

[Chick McGee]

There's so many things that make that great.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

That is the greatest sound effect.

[Chick McGee]

The choice of the sound effect, the automatic timing.

[Tom Griswold]

What gives you boom. Yeah. This guy's trespassing is a hobby. Thousand different places. That's. I'm surprised he didn't get stabbed or shot or something. Just seems like a really tremendously bad idea.

[Christy Lee]

I may try it.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll let you know if it didn't steal anything.

[I]

No, he's not a criminal.

[Christy Lee]

Likes to go places where he's not supposed.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Supposedly. Like those selfies or something.

[Christy Lee]

Have you ever done that?

[Chick McGee]

You know what he is? He's curious.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

It is thrilling to go someplace you've never been.

[Josh Arnold]

Absolutely.

[Ace Cosby]

Or not supposed to be.

[Christy Lee]

Right, Right. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But I like the gym. I hate that.

[Christy Lee]

Like a women's locker room.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat, you have been accused on this program of. We have two bathrooms in this part of the building.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And they're. They're whatever you call it. Unisex, everyone.

[Josh Arnold]

I run the water.

[Tom Griswold]

But in the other building, right down the hallway, there is a distinctly marked men's room and ladies room.

[Josh Arnold]

I've gone in the ladies room.

[Tom Griswold]

And you. Yes, Ivan, I understand. Go in the ladies room quite often still.

[Christy Lee]

No. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I used to do a lot during.

[Josh Arnold]

COVID I found a new location.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

The ladies room was typically cleaner. I would go in there early in the morning. Very back is a nice private place to be if you have to, you know.

[Tom Griswold]

So you're going to the ladies room in the back?

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, no, I.

[Christy Lee]

The men's room in the back.

[Josh Arnold]

Ace did catch me a few times coming out of the ladies room and ratted on me.

[Christy Lee]

I used it too, during COVID Yeah, it was Great. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you pretend I was a lady?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yes. Oh yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you take a tampon? Did she take. Did you take one of the tampons and tuck it just so you.

[Chick McGee]

You fooled a lot of people, didn't you?

[Christy Lee]

Yes, I did.

[Chick McGee]

Oh yes. I am a lady.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I'm peeing out of place.

[Chick McGee]

That's the way.

[Tom Griswold]

Would that be actionable by HR if it just said.

[Chick McGee]

Oh yeah, if.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no. If you were here at five in the morning and went into the ladies.

[Christy Lee]

Room, I would hope not.

[I]

But maybe, maybe.

[Christy Lee]

Obviously we have a odd circumstance.

[Josh Arnold]

I forgot what time it was and it was like.

[Chick McGee]

Yep.

[Josh Arnold]

In a later hour I went running down the hallway and I had. I was already unzipping and pulling my pants down and there comes that one female account.

[Tom Griswold]

Exactly.

[Josh Arnold]

And I'm like all out.

[Ace Cosby]

Whoa.

[Josh Arnold]

No, you were not out of my pants.

[Tom Griswold]

I was ready to, ready to go. Okay, good, good, good, good. Well, thank you. Thank you very much.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Now something, huh? Right now I want to remind you about one of the other great gifts and there's plenty of time to get this done.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Five from Gunner.

[Chick McGee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Hello, hello, hello.

[Tom Griswold]

Now.

[Chick McGee]

Doing all right over there, bud?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I'm just organizing some stuff for tomorrow's show. Christie's not going to be here. Christy has a special day off tomorrow, so Ms. Hooker will be here. And last week, she was so great. She made us those chestnuts. Roasted chestnuts. And we all found out that they really aren't all that great. But.

[Ace Cosby]

And I found that chestnuts are hard to grow here in the United States. They're very rare anymore. There's a problem. We have to, like, import our chestnuts.

[Tom Griswold]

No kidding.

[Chick McGee]

Who is it? Like OPEC or something?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Has control of our chestnuts growing on trees and elsewhere. But it's. It's one of those. You hear chestnuts roasting on an open fire. It's an absolute standard. But you don't really get to eat them much. And we found out why. They're not really very good.

[Chick McGee]

The same. You don't hear about people eating, I don't know, newspapers. It's about the same.

[Tom Griswold]

Because, I mean, they can eat them digitally.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh.

[Christy Lee]

You know, with humor like this. I'm craving.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, not yet. Oh, God. That's premature. Ladies and gentlemen, without any further ado.

[Christy Lee]

Chick buddy.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, Ace?

[Christy Lee]

What do you get when. If you cross a vampire, vampire and.

[Chick McGee]

A snowman, what do you get when you cross a vampire and a snowman? I don't know, Ace. What?

[Tom Griswold]

Frostbite. That was Ace copies Joke of the day.

[Chick McGee]

It pays off.

[Christy Lee]

Pays off.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Makes sense. There's a logic to it.

[Christy Lee]

You wanted it, Joshua. There you go.

[Chick McGee]

You're looking very for very little from your return on your dollar.

[Tom Griswold]

One can justify that in court.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, now.

[Chick McGee]

Hi, everybody. What can I do for you?

[Tom Griswold]

I just heard that Ace is not.

[Christy Lee]

Who needs a story?

[Tom Griswold]

Ace is not attending our holiday party tomorrow. At lunch.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, really? Huh?

[Tom Griswold]

Is that correct? Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, okay. Well, you'll be missed, you know.

[Tom Griswold]

Why?

[Ace Cosby]

Why?

[Tom Griswold]

Too many people talking?

[Christy Lee]

No. That room's loud, Tom. You know what? I. I don't blame you, ace. There is a lot of inane chatter.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, but you're passing up a free meal.

[Christy Lee]

That's a tough part. Yeah, it is.

[Tom Griswold]

Good. I guess we can get you a plate to go.

[Christy Lee]

No, no, you got to show up.

[Josh Arnold]

Show up?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Gonna put some effort forth.

[Tom Griswold]

Right, Christy, you can't be there either.

[Ace Cosby]

No, sadly.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat, are you gonna show him?

[Josh Arnold]

I think I'm allowed off the check.

[Chick McGee]

With managers I don't know about. Yeah, I've been. You know me, I've been dodgy last couple days.

[Christy Lee]

Christy won't be there, so it's already that much quieter.

[Tom Griswold]

Very good, Josh.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, that's funny.

[Tom Griswold]

Time now to review.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, it is?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I have no idea what happened today in history.

[Chick McGee]

December 16th.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, let's check this out. 24 winding down kids, I did not know this. This is interesting. I did not know this particular event involved the Dartmouth. Not the college. The Dartmouth, the Eleanor and the Beaver.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, sure, sure.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what I'm talking about.

[Ace Cosby]

Sailing ships. Are they the.

[Tom Griswold]

That's your hint? Yes, they were America's Cup. No. Certainly a good guess that. Well, those were the vessels involved in the Boston Tea Party.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't know that.

[Ace Cosby]

I didn't know that either.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. Tossing the beaver there into the. Oh, okay.

[Ace Cosby]

No, they were tossing the tea, not the.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Off the beaver.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, they tossed the tea off the. Be still. The phrase get the tea off the beaver sounds somehow dirty. I don't know why. Let's see now. Shirley Temple announced her retirement from acting in 1950 on this date.

[Christy Lee]

That's right.

[Ace Cosby]

How old was she? Like 18 or something.

[Christy Lee]

She then went into the non alcoholic drink business.

[Chick McGee]

There we go.

[Tom Griswold]

Ah, of course.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Very good, very good.

[Ace Cosby]

She become a politician.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Representative of Temple Black.

[Ace Cosby]

That's right.

[Chick McGee]

Hoboken, New Jersey.

[Tom Griswold]

Now it's interesting. Wait a second.

[Chick McGee]

Through Stomping Ground.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, here's a treat. Trivia question for you. I'll get. I'll run this by you, Pat. You're a non drinker. What other famous person has a non alcoholic drink named after them?

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, that's easy.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, the Palmer.

[Tom Griswold]

The Arnold Palmer.

[Christy Lee]

That doesn't count though, because.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, we don't know if Rob Roy is a real person. We go down the list of cocktails of name with names.

[Christy Lee]

The Arnold Palmer isn't Served as a alternative to and to a.

[Tom Griswold]

But it's a non alcoholic drink named after a person. That was the category in jeopardy here today. Josh, did you know that technically an Arnold Palmer plumber must be served in a nine inch glass?

[Chick McGee]

Okay, well, you just can't get over that.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I've been telling everybody. Verified. Verified by John. John Feinstein, our good friend from a good walk spoiled. I have need to see this movie again. I saw it as a kid and remember nothing about it except it was very long. Lawrence of Arabia, released in 1962.

[Christy Lee]

Boy, that has been in this. So what's been going on with Lawrence of Arabia?

[Ace Cosby]

I think the second time in a week.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I think Peter Ool's birthday.

[Christy Lee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm not sure how accurate that is.

[Ace Cosby]

Lawrence of Arabia.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I know.

[Ace Cosby]

Not a documentary.

[Chick McGee]

They built a specific camera just for that movie and it's the only camera. It's the only shot that camera's ever taken since it was invented. Something like 70mm or something or bigger than that.

[Tom Griswold]

A lot of nice vistas. I think they.

[Chick McGee]

There's some. There's a fact in there somewhere.

[Tom Griswold]

They danced around. Around a lot of stuff, apparently.

[Christy Lee]

Gayness. That's what I would think would be.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, this is interesting. I'll run this by. Let's see, Josh. 1966, the single hey Joe. Released by who?

[Christy Lee]

Jimi Hendrix, of course.

[Ace Cosby]

Very, very going with that gun in your hand, Joe.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Shoot my own lady. Why do you remember Pat?

[Josh Arnold]

Somebody love her?

[Tom Griswold]

She caught her with another man. Yeah, you see? Yeah. Okay, let's see now. Let's. Let's do some birthdays. Oh, Ludwig van, as they called him.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, Beethoven, Beethoven.

[Chick McGee]

Beethoven wasn't so great.

[Tom Griswold]

1770.

[Chick McGee]

What do you mean Beethoven wasn't so great?

[Tom Griswold]

This is the musical artist, not the dog man.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, sure. Not the Saint Bernard.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, beautiful.

[Chick McGee]

There are some great jokes in that first Charlie Brown special and that just went downhill. The pumpkin's okay?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, they're fine. They could not capture the magic. Recapture the magic. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And then is Beethoven the one that went deaf?

[Chick McGee]

Mozart.

[Tom Griswold]

Beethoven, yeah, Mozart, like died of Beethoven. No, you're thinking of hopeless alcoholic. Was he best known for his fifth? Beethoven's fifth.

[Chick McGee]

Walter Murphy in the Big Apple Band. The fifth of Beethoven.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, sure.

[Christy Lee]

That what's brown and sits on a piano bench.

[Chick McGee]

Beethoven's last movement.

[Christy Lee]

That's correct.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. How about that? We're a team.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, this is a tough one. I predict Chick will get it or Josh. 1944, debuting in stage door. Cartoon.

[Christy Lee]

As a character.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, a character.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, boy. Stage cartoon.

[Chick McGee]

Was it Bugs? Bugs Bunny?

[Tom Griswold]

No. Ah, it's a good one. Yosemite Sam. Okay, well, maybe tomorrow we can play our Yosemite Sam tribute.

[Chick McGee]

Let's not.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I love that bit.

[Chick McGee]

Let's not. Especially at the holidays.

[Tom Griswold]

In 1963, Benjamin Brat born, of course. He had a great summer.

[Chick McGee]

Huge part of his company.

[I]

It's like, did you see how much money I got?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sure there's a more graceful answer than that, but, dude, I bought it for 200 million and sold it for 6 billion.

Like, what the heck? It was that much more graceful than that.
