Right now we're joined in the studio by comedian Mark Gross.

[Reno Collier]

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

[Christy Lee]

By the way, we're to give the.

[Tom Griswold]

Announcement about the downsizing after our next guests.

[Christy Lee]

You might have read yesterday in the paper, 39 of the 42 of you will be losing. Now here's comedian Mark Gross.

[Reno Collier]

None of you got your Christmas bonuses. Instead we've given them money to this funny young man here. You know, I don't know, something, something was wrong. Something was wrong.

[Christy Lee]

I don't know. Gross.

[Tom Griswold]

Sounds like a Jew to me. Merry Christmas. Get him up here, I'm telling you, let's go.

[Reno Collier]

I mean literally I'm seven minutes in, nothing and I'm clean and I'm going, what is wrong? And I, and people started to shun me, literally. They were like, they would turn their backs and they're looking down and they wouldn't even face me. And I, and I go, I'm totally serious. They were turning around, I could hear their chairs. This is horrible.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, and I, and I thought.

[Reno Collier]

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

[Chick McGee]

Uh huh.

[Reno Collier]

I had to do that. I'm like walking, I can hear my feet.

[Tom Griswold]

That's it.

[Reno Collier]

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

[Tom Griswold]

Then she goes.

[Reno Collier]

She goes, I hope you're happy. You've ruined Christmas.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, sir. How many of us have been on the receiving end of that comment? My goodness. I know. I have.

[Chick McGee]

And don't forget, if you're still using toilet paper, shame on you. Dump your toilet paper roll because wet cleans better than dry. That's just good science. Try Dude Wipes for the best clean. Pants down.

[Josh Arnold]

What do we have to do to get you in the Christmas spirit?

[Christy Lee]

Buy me lots of gifts and we'll see. We'll see if that brings me around.

[Josh Arnold]

But it's not about the material thing, Uncle Chick.

[Christy Lee]

Noises.

[Christy Lee]

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you've talked to him this morning. I have not. Was he not feeling well?

[Chick McGee]

He was late.

[Christy Lee]

He seemed. He seemed okay. I don't know. This is unprecedented, even for him to be this. This late to the first break. I don't know what's going on.

[Tom Griswold]

He's never done this?

[Josh Arnold]

Nope.

[Chick McGee]

I just kind of.

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe he went home.

[Chick McGee]

What if he just went, you know what? The hell with these people, you know.

[Christy Lee]

What is he. He wouldn't look now. Of course it's not him being late. It's us. The. The entire clock's off is what he's going to.

[Chick McGee]

That's all right. Hey, if anybody deserves to come in five minutes Late. It might be Tom Gris.

[Pat Godwin]

Speaking of Peg, I watched that yacht rock documentary.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And that. That documentary did something. That's rare. It changed my mind about something. And that. That's a good documentary if it can get you to think a different way. And it got me to appreciate the song Peg.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you never liked Peg?

[Chick McGee]

I kind of didn't. Yeah. Yeah. And then I went, oh, no, I've been too hard on Peg.

[Tom Griswold]

He's cranky, which is great.

[Christy Lee]

I'm gonna start calling Michael McDonald Mikey. Does that. Is that okay, you think?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, in the book, he talks about the fact he was always Mike.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And he was being introduced on stage when he first. The first time he played with the Doobie Brothers.

Is Walter Becker no longer with us?

[Tom Griswold]

He's gone.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a great scene in that. In his. In the book with Michael McDonald, which involves Mr. Becker essentially knocking at his door and not knowing pretty much where on earth he is, cops being called.

[Chick McGee]

He looked like a guy who often.

[Josh Arnold]

Didn'T know where he was.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, yeah.

Okay. A couple quick sports notes before we do our review.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, son of a gun. Matthew Wright kicked a 31 yard field goal that banked off the left upright and went through the uprights as time expired. Clang.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

And the league, the NFL is counting this.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

It makes you shake your head. Don't. Don't it. It should be illegal. Tom. Don't you think if it hits the upright.

[Tom Griswold]

If it's upright and goes in, I think it should count for four.

[Chick McGee]

Yep.

[Christy Lee]

But he didn't call it.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, you're right. You should have to call it.

[Christy Lee]

And the banks weren't open.

[Chick McGee]

That is very silly.

[Christy Lee]

As Chiefs beat the Chargers 1917 at Arrowhead, their ninth straight AFC west title. Patrick Mahomes, a man. It sounds like you're mailing it in at this point.

[Tom Griswold]

He doesn't feel well focusing on other things.

[Josh Arnold]

[Christy Lee]

Oh, is that right?

[Chick McGee]

[Josh Arnold]

Why don't you go home?

[Christy Lee]

Could we.

[Pat Godwin]

I never stop laughing.

[Christy Lee]

Could we have a live shark? That would be amazing.

[Chick McGee]

I think it's already happened.

[Christy Lee]

You know, the. The harder you laugh, the harder it is to hold it in.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, keep going. So far, so good.

[Christy Lee]

[Christy Lee]

That was it. Josh Allen became the first player to have three touchdown passes and three rushing touchdowns in the same game since O.J.

[Tom Griswold]

Close.

[Christy Lee]

O is close. Got the O. Otto Graham. Oh, man. Otto Graham, who looked 35 when he was a rookie, led to. Then the Cleveland Browns to the. I think it was the aafc.

[Tom Griswold]

What athletes do you think looked the oldest? I. I have an answer if you're. Well, yeah, I would say. I would say NBA.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Especially with all the facial hair.

[Tom Griswold]

And some of those guys, they're. They're 19. They look 30.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Christy Lee]

There are rookies in the NBA who look like they're 49.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Big, big old guy. Remember Greg Oden? He always looked old to me. Yeah, really old.

[Tom Griswold]

Interesting. Now we have. So there was a problem with the defense. Apparently when you score that many touchdowns.

[Christy Lee]

And lose, The Rams win 44. 42. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Like to thank the fellows on the D for.

[Christy Lee]

Well, I heard the Bills offense sued the Bills defense for non support.

[Tom Griswold]

My sphincter remains.

[Christy Lee]

[Christy Lee]

Yep. Oh, let's see. With his win on Saturday, Chestnut snapped a two year losing streak he'd suffered in the St. Elmo shrimp eating contest. It feels great. Joey said of his victory. Last couple of years, I didn't win. The best thing about losing is when you come back and you win. That's the only good thing about it. It feels great to be back on top.

[Chick McGee]

Did he thank us at all? We did talk to him.

[Christy Lee]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

It's in there somewhere.

[Christy Lee]

And he probably thought of us when.

[Tom Griswold]

He was getting rid of the £21.

[Christy Lee]

Here it is. Congratulations. Especially to Josh Arnold.

[Chick McGee]

Me, exclusively.

[Christy Lee]

I remember his face with every shrimp I was eating.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's interesting.

[Christy Lee]

That's very interesting. I stuck my face in there, he said, much like Josh does, being a generate and complete lover.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, degenerate.

[Tom Griswold]

Not degenerate. Generous.

[Christy Lee]

Generous. No, no. He says generate, degenerate here. I don't know what that means.

[Chick McGee]

Well, you. I'm not correcting him, am I?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, no, no, that's right.

[Tom Griswold]

But I spent a lot of time in the john this weekend. Maybe he may have defeated me in that category. 21 pounds in 10 minutes.

[Christy Lee]

And from what we're getting, apparently you. You're spending this week in the. Starting off this week in the can, right?

[Tom Griswold]

I'll be all right. Really.

[Christy Lee]

All right. I. I don't believe you.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, we'll see.

[Christy Lee]

You seem kind of shaky.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I was on Expose.

[Chick McGee]

An unexpected return or a bit of an aftershock? Because yesterday was the big.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah, okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah, you're gonna get those.

[Christy Lee]

What was happening yesterday when I did?

[Tom Griswold]

Nothing.

[Christy Lee]

First wave hit time. Now it was like Normandy. The first wave. What did we learn on Friday's show? Tom?

[Tom Griswold]

Many things.

[Christy Lee]

Can you illuminate us? Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

This is kind of interesting. During the holiday season, people are not getting enough alone time, which makes sense. There's a little too much.

[Christy Lee]

I say not. Not only the holiday, all year round. People don't get enough alone.

[Chick McGee]

You need to make sure you get enough.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah, I knew that. I don't. Did we actually do this whole story? A new survey shows people feel that alone time is vital to their mental health. And over 55% said it's very important to have adequate alone time. However, 45% said they don't get the alone time they need during the holiday season. 35% of respondents said they're more irritable because they do not get enough alone time.

[Chick McGee]

20% said, hey, leave me alone.

[Christy Lee]

I act like I'm not here. Well, that's.

[Tom Griswold]

I think that's what skews the survey.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. People who want to be left alone.

[Tom Griswold]

The people that really want to be left alone said, get the hell out of here. Take your clipboard and shove it up your ass.

[Josh Arnold]

Clinical psychologist Dr. Sophie Lazarus explained that taking a brief pause. Alone, our nervous system can settle, our mind can settle, and our body.

[Christy Lee]

This is a clinical psychologist named Sophie.

[Josh Arnold]

Sophie Lazarus.

[Tom Griswold]

Back from the dead doesn't seem right.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It's interesting because you've got the combination of. In many places, it's getting cooler, so you're forced inside.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So you're going to be around your family, but then you've got all kinds of relatives visiting it. People aren't getting that time. This is where you want to get those Raycon earbuds, pop them in, go to a closet and listen to the show.

[Chick McGee]

Turned it into a gross commercial.

[Christy Lee]

Did you say go into a closet.

[Tom Griswold]

And sit there by yourself? That way no one's gonna bother you.

[Christy Lee]

You know, for those of us who punishment came and had to go sit inside the closet for days, really, days.

[Tom Griswold]

On end, I would think, in your case, the closet. I thought the closet was your refuge. You had your golf. Remember? Your golf club box.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, Wilson.

[Christy Lee]

Wilson. The golf club box. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Which you did, by the way. You did way before that. Mo.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Do you think they got that from Zamakas? Owns me some money somehow, I think. Or at least Tom does. Hanks.

[Tom Griswold]

What else did we learn?

[Chick McGee]

Go after Hanks.

[Christy Lee]

I'm going to go after Hanks.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, well, you know we did the story, Christy. You know how I know we did it? Oh, excuse me. It says Pat Godwin is going to be getting plenty of alone time this holiday season.

[Pat Godwin]

Easy, tiger.

[Josh Arnold]

I think we may have touched on it, but I don't think we actually got to the physical story.

[Chick McGee]

Well, we got into the. The important part, which was mocking.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Because poor Pat.

[Pat Godwin]

It's always good to be mocked. I don't mind it. I like a little teasing.

[Tom Griswold]

Have there been any developments other than.

[Christy Lee]

We'Re not supposed to?

[Chick McGee]

None of our business.

[Pat Godwin]

Did we have a talk before we went on the air this time?

[Tom Griswold]

I wasn't in here, remember? Yeah, you were here.

[Christy Lee]

I don't think he heard you.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, boy.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, he could be sitting right there and not hear you. That's true.

[Pat Godwin]

That's True.

[Tom Griswold]

Again, I'm focusing on other things.

[Pat Godwin]

I understand. Had a fun weekend in Youngstown, Ohio. Thank you very much.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, good.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, People were great.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah. Great Bob and Tom fans.

[Chick McGee]

Wonderful.

[Tom Griswold]

Let's see now.

[Christy Lee]

Just sign any boobs?

[Chick McGee]

Answer him.

[Pat Godwin]

No boob signing this weekend.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, let's see now. Oh, Ed Septic has a T shirt out there.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh yeah, I bought one. Oh, I love it.

[Chick McGee]

You haven't gotten it yet?

[Josh Arnold]

Not yet. I've seen the picture of it.

[Pat Godwin]

They are cool.

[Josh Arnold]

He has a prototype, if you will.

[Chick McGee]

I know, I've seen it.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Christy Lee]

You have a photo of the proto.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Where does one get the Adseptic T shirt?

[Josh Arnold]

The Bob and Tom website. No kid. No kidding.

[Tom Griswold]

It'll be nice.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

We decided Ace Cosby and Pat Godwin could become roommates so that they're both single.

[Pat Godwin]

And he said he wouldn't charge me. Very nice of him. Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

We had an unusual story about. We get them all the time. This one about robot robots that give massages.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. The robot massage must rub.

[Christy Lee]

I wouldn't mind that. Of all the things you could have a robot do. I think that would.

[Josh Arnold]

I'd see. I don't think they would.

[Tom Griswold]

I know.

[Josh Arnold]

I like that soft. You don't like the soft? Touch of a. I don't want to have some hands.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, anomaly in the WI fi and all of a sudden you've got a. You've got Rosie the Masseuse robot giving you a high speed yank.

[Christy Lee]

I think that would make it thrilling almost that that might happen any second.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait a minute.

[Christy Lee]

How's that? Is that what you like?

[Tom Griswold]

Is that what you like?

[Christy Lee]

How's that? How's that?

[Tom Griswold]

Probably the German accent.

[Chick McGee]

Look me in the eyes.

[Christy Lee]

Is that what you would like? Is.

[Tom Griswold]

You want to say happy ending, do you?

[Christy Lee]

Huh? Happy ending end happily.

[Tom Griswold]

I show you how Aryan woman give happy ending. Why would you always brown eyed loser.

[Chick McGee]

Always one step a little too far.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh God.

[Chick McGee]

Never just.

[Tom Griswold]

I killed.

[Christy Lee]

And apparently we're doing voices.

[Chick McGee]

It can never just end cleanly. It always has to. We never just get a good photo of us at the side of the Grand Canyon. One of us has to always tumble in.

[Christy Lee]

There's a picture of him as he's falling, looking back, waving.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, Christy, you like to get the. The massage?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I do. I love it.

[Tom Griswold]

Is this. You were telling me this is the. You're wearing your clothes the whole time?

[Josh Arnold]

No, I just wear my panties. That's it. I used to not do that, but now I just do. I wear My.

[Christy Lee]

Your hammers are exposed.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, not wearing it. There's a. You were under a blanket. Hammers.

[Christy Lee]

Hammers.

[Tom Griswold]

You call them hammers.

[Christy Lee]

You can take any.

[Tom Griswold]

Is this way. This is why you live alone.

[Christy Lee]

You can take. You can take any. Any noun and call a woman's breast by that noun.

[Josh Arnold]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, really.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Burgers.

[Chick McGee]

Taters.

[Christy Lee]

Taters, yeah. Hammers.

[Chick McGee]

Mugs.

[Tom Griswold]

I got one. I'm not going to shout out. I am restraining myself.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Headlights.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

It would be so awful.

[Josh Arnold]

Does it have to do with my droopy boobs? Is that where you're going?

[Ace Cosby]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

No, it's not. It's not much more of a. Too much of a gentleman to reference yours.

[Christy Lee]

Hello, I'm Droopy Boobs. How are you?

[Chick McGee]

Hi, Droopy.

[Christy Lee]

Do you look on the bright side of.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you chat with your masseuse?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. And she's. I think I've told you this. Not only has she been my friend masseuse for 30 years, she's also a licensed therapist now as well. So you can get mental health and body health.

[Chick McGee]

Jillian Clam spreader. Isn't that.

[Christy Lee]

She is responsible for.

[Tom Griswold]

See, you're having a.

[Christy Lee]

The Manhattan Project.

[Tom Griswold]

You're having a psychological.

[Josh Arnold]

You can. Yeah, sometimes.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that extra?

[Josh Arnold]

Nope. Shouldn't charge me extra. It's great. I tipper. Well.

[Chick McGee]

Boy, how many guys accidentally walk by that room, hear 30 seconds of conversation and walk right into traffic?

[Pat Godwin]

Even with a topless woman on the bed whistling Happy.

[Josh Arnold]

Make fun if you will.

[Christy Lee]

Honk, honk, honk, honk, honk honk.

[Josh Arnold]

La la la. I enjoy that time.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, here's something.

[Tom Griswold]

Tell me about the color of her nipples, not about how much she hated her mother.

[Chick McGee]

Here's.

[Christy Lee]

Here's some of the audio as Chrissy gets a massage. You know what?

[Tom Griswold]

That makes me mad.

[Christy Lee]

Of course. Droopy dog.

[Tom Griswold]

There again. I. This massage thing is taking place in San Francisco. It's called a escape robot.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't think this. I would not like that.

[Christy Lee]

I'm. No, I'll say it again. It's. It should be an escape.

[Chick McGee]

He's right.

[Tom Griswold]

And it says there's no. There's no tipping. Well, you're probably gonna have to tip the person that you know.

[Chick McGee]

Don't ruin this for us. No tipping.

[Christy Lee]

I need someone to come to my house, massage me. Preferably a woman who enjoys the word hammers. There you go.

[Josh Arnold]

My girl would do that. She's got a table.

[Chick McGee]

One of those new room massages where they use their whole bodies to massage you.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Lay on your back and slide around.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You can feel some habits that's gonna.

[Tom Griswold]

That's gonna get in an awkward erection.

[Josh Arnold]

Or two for a while. She used to live right down the street from you, and she had her massage place in her basement, kind of. And she had the handles on the ceiling and would walk on your back.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, one of the. Apparently that's quite therapeutic. Okay. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

But apparently she did have customers that.

[Christy Lee]

Did initially my massage in Austin. She left the sheet on me for a bit at the beginning and massaged through the sheet.

[Tom Griswold]

And you asked your friend what she does about unwanted awkward erections? Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sure there has to be a.

[Josh Arnold]

She said that really happened very often with her. I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

Is she.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sure that she incredibly.

[Christy Lee]

She was incredibly ugly. Is that.

[Josh Arnold]

No. Oh, no, no.

[Tom Griswold]

You should. Yeah. Hey, let's. We should buy one for God.

[Christy Lee]

When I like massages, an erection.

[Pat Godwin]

You and I used to have a woman that massaged us at the lake house. Do you remember those days?

[Josh Arnold]

What the hell?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it sounds.

[Tom Griswold]

It sounds like we were roommates at a lake house.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, no joke. I would.

[Tom Griswold]

Was.

[Jess Hooker]

We kind of were for that month.

[Christy Lee]

Can I. Can I get in on this? Josh, you want to go to the lake house with Pat and Tom? That sounds like yes. A weekend. Yes.

[Pat Godwin]

You don't remember the woman?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, I do, now that you've mentioned it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a very complicated, bad story.

[Chick McGee]

Imagine, all four of us at a lake house.

[Christy Lee]

I have a. I have a question. And don't get mad at me, but did you put a baby in her? Go ahead. Let me. Let me know.

[Tom Griswold]

No, she was. She was. Shall we say, is the French say, trey. Gay.

[Christy Lee]

I wonder what he's trying to say.

[Josh Arnold]

She was gay.

[Chick McGee]

You know, the act out, sort of.

[Tom Griswold]

I say. I say, is butch here? It's time for the massage.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, Jacques, we told you. We told you to behave yourself.

[Christy Lee]

I got French and German now, all right.

[Tom Griswold]

What about the freedom? I had forgotten about that.

[Pat Godwin]

She was great.

[Tom Griswold]

So in any event, if you want a massage in San Francisco, you can get it from a robot. And of course, you have to pay in bitcoin. One bitcoin.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, well, geez. That's not.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, you better get a happy ending if it's a hundred thousand plus.

[Chick McGee]

Better get the robot.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, well, you buy a portion of a bitcoin, can you buy like a penny coin?

[Christy Lee]

A little bit.

[Tom Griswold]

Queen.

[Chick McGee]

That's very good.

[Christy Lee]

Just a little bit. What's coming up in sports maybe, huh? We've got a world record, I'm sure. Not that I've seen it yet. And college football playoffs. And who is this voice of Sir Andrew Barton? Fight out my men. Sir Andrew said, I'm a little wounded but not slain I'll lay down and bleed a while and we'll rise and fight again.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, this guy.

[Christy Lee]

I'll lay down and bleed.

[Chick McGee]

The one that gave us the seven, eight, nine a couple weeks ago, Possibly seven.

[Christy Lee]

A big. A big time joke. What a.

[Chick McGee]

What a charismatic individual.

[Christy Lee]

We need to revisit the coach.

[Tom Griswold]

He coach defense for the Bills. Hey, fellas, don't forget this is a paycheck today. Good luck. Have fun out there. Don't hit, don't, don't get.

[Christy Lee]

Because the Bills defense didn't show. Yeah, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Right now I want to talk about real diamond stud earrings for my buddy, Stephen Singer. Stephen, in fact, it's not just. What am I saying? Do you have your bracelet on today?

[Josh Arnold]

I do not. I forgot it. I'm sorry. But they do have a beautiful at.

[Tom Griswold]

Last bracelet that is a great, great value, too.

[Josh Arnold]

It is really good.

[Christy Lee]

Cut to Christie's house where Andy's wearing the bracelet. Nothing else. Dancing around in her underwear.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm going to start having to defend poor Andy.

[Christy Lee]

He's standing at the end of the bed going, yeah, that's what I told you. You get up and do the dishes, clean the house.

[Josh Arnold]

You think that's how I talk to you?

[Tom Griswold]

Put gas in my car? Sorry, Christine, this is my bracelet. Maybe. Maybe you had to spend some time at the mall this weekend. You're saying to yourself, I don't want to go back. Here's what you can do. You can take care of. You've got a bunch of obligations. You got to get these presents done. Why not get something really cool that's going to last forever, like a diamond set of diamonds. That earrings, maybe a diamond bracelet, a necklace. Stephen Singer's got them all. And as I've often said, he stands behind his jewelry because if he stood in front of it, you couldn't see it. Hey, Stephen, move yourself to the left, for God's sake. How can I buy this beautiful diamond stud earring set known as the anita for just 298 bucks if you've got your butt in front of it. Wait a minute. That sounds hostile. Are you ever going to get out of bed today? Steven Singer, he's Stephen Connor. He reminds me of my dad. Steven is one of these guys that goes to work on Saturdays even though he doesn't have to because he just likes what he does. We had a nice dinner with him. He's just one of these guys in high school. Kind of got into this whole thing and thought he had a better way of doing it. Just go to ihatestevensinger.com check out real diamonds from a real jeweler. Don't forget the 100 day, no hassle money back guarantee. And also, you can upgrade. You got that those earrings last year? You want to get bigger ones for her or him? Well, here's what you do. You trade them on in you get full value. It's I hate stevensinger.com Tell him the Bob and Tom show sent you. And tell them that the commercial was really well done. Yeah, and they didn't get sidetracked by screaming at him and talking about his dog.

[Christy Lee]

I asked you to do one thing. Take the trash out of here.

[Tom Griswold]

These guys, These guys are total pros. Pros. No mention of Christie's husband wearing a bracelet, which is perfectly acceptable.

[Christy Lee]

I'm the queen of my castle.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. All right. When we come back, no sex. When we come back, we'll see if Eddie can somehow turn off Chick's microphone. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Christy Lee]

Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Tom Griswold returns. He's from the Fresh from the bathroom. How's things going in there?

[Chick McGee]

Blowing up the bowl Old Tom is blowing up the bowl. Old time is.

[Christy Lee]

I noticed one room you were in. It smells like we're rendering livestock.

[Tom Griswold]

Have you no class? Let's see, where were we? We were still reviewing what we learned on the show.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you add carbs back to your diet. Look what happened.

[Pat Godwin]

That's what happened.

[Christy Lee]

Carb will wreck your life, brother.

[Chick McGee]

You were looking forward to your crock pot.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

How did that go?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I did that Friday.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. How'd it go?

[Tom Griswold]

Delightful.

[Chick McGee]

Poisoned him.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, I think I caught something. I didn't get this till last night. About 8:00.

[Christy Lee]

A stew pasta.

[Tom Griswold]

I had a delicious big chunk of red meat. Chuck roast. Chuck roast, Chuck roast. Oh, God, the slow cooker is being.

[Christy Lee]

A Chuck being a Charles. I. I take exception to that name.

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Christy Lee]

Yes. Like Chuck Hole, Chuck Rose.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I tried being Tom. Uncle Tom.

[Pat Godwin]

I don't like Patty milk.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, all right. Somehow killed the comedy.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know how that happened, but no.

[Tom Griswold]

I make a tasteless, dangerous joke about being called Uncle Tom and look what happened.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Or. Or Peeping Tom. Huh? What's wrong? How about that?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's bad.

[Tom Griswold]

What's.

[Christy Lee]

Josh.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't get any bad Josh.

[Christy Lee]

No, don't Josh around.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah. Are you joshing me? It just means kidding, which is kind of what I do, so. Hey.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey. That's good.

[Christy Lee]

And Christy. Oh, I would get.

[Chick McGee]

I got OshKosh for Josh a little bit.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

But I kind of didn't mind it either.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, Christie's kind of a name for a dim stripper, I guess.

[Josh Arnold]

Christie.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, here comes a Christie. Yeah, you can get three for one with her.

[Christy Lee]

Christian. Karen. Yeah, she can't count.

[Josh Arnold]

My dad said that because of Gypsy Rose Lee. When Christy Lee goes, he's like a stripper.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my.

[Tom Griswold]

There is a famous porn star named Christie Lee, Right?

[Christy Lee]

Is your middle name Christy Canyons?

[Tom Griswold]

Christy Canyon is different.

[Christy Lee]

Christy Canyon is quite different.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know if there's a porn star.

[Tom Griswold]

Is Christy Canyon. Is that supposed to be.

[Christy Lee]

She had big boobs, big hammers.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, but she's the queen in between your boobs.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that. That's.

[Josh Arnold]

How is that what she's doing?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I perceived that.

[Christy Lee]

I believe Christy Canyon is dvda. An expert. Dvd.

[Josh Arnold]

What's that mean?

[Tom Griswold]

You got.

[Christy Lee]

Well, the D, as in.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, double. Yeah. So you got. So there are four involved?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Double V, double A4.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, now let's just move on.

[Josh Arnold]

No waiting.

[Tom Griswold]

An innocent joke. He tried Europe.

[Josh Arnold]

You don't like that's my innocence. I always thought it was because she had.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I think you both.

[Chick McGee]

Christy, double V, double A Canon. Christy, double V, double A can.

[Tom Griswold]

Some might think it sized. You don't have to say it twice. Thank you very much, Christian. Okay, what else did we miss? Oh, this isn't. I want to cover one other thing because we found the audio. The semi Mexican restaurant chain known as Chi Chi's is reopening. Now, I thought this would interest you because there's kind of a sports angle on this. Do you remember?

[Christy Lee]

I think Max McGee had something to do with it. Wide receiver for the Packers. That's what you want me to say?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Former Green bay packer Max McGee and a guy named Marno McDermott started Chi Chi's restaurants in 1975.

[Christy Lee]

Max was active during, I believe he played in the first Super Bowl.

[Tom Griswold]

But they had 200 locations. But they stopped operations in 2004. They're bringing them back. I can't quite understand why.

[Christy Lee]

Because there are people who are passionate about Chi Chi's.

[Tom Griswold]

But I mean, there are real Mexican restaurants. Well, everywhere now.

[Josh Arnold]

They're a real. Well, I'm not gonna go there.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, this is. This is kind of like the Fridays of Mexican restaurants. And aren't. Am I correct in saying Fridays and restaurants of that ilk are struggling right now?

[Josh Arnold]

The Applebee is the kind of.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Cheat.

[Chick McGee]

Cheese is for people who want to eat Mexican and drink out of a clean glass.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow, he's really amusing himself over there.

[Chick McGee]

So many so called authentic Mexican restaurants I've been to lately. It's like, can I get a dirtier glass?

[Josh Arnold]

Are you serious?

[Tom Griswold]

That's healthy for you though.

[Christy Lee]

You know what, though, Keeps those germs food though? I went to a Mexican restaurant and I. They had pictures on the menu. This. I think you might have been sitting there when this happened. And I pointed to the picture and I said, I'll have the picture. Half joking, half wanting what was in the picture. And the waiter said, oh, that does look good, doesn't. I go, yeah. He goes, we don't have that. I think he might have been messing with me.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm a big fan of having pictures on me menus.

[Christy Lee]

I know you are.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't like to look at even super elegant restaurants you find yourself looking over. You know, what the hell's that? Because you can't tell from the description. They should at least have it online.

[Christy Lee]

Somewhere so you can kind people who know that we are living in a society where we respect other people's privacy. We don't go looking around the dining room trying to figure out what everyone else is.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll say, hey, chrome dome. What's that?

[Chick McGee]

Possibly you'll say that.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, what's that?

[Christy Lee]

Please tell me. Look at the mirror, wearing a hat.

[Tom Griswold]

Then I realize I'm looking in a mirror.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, I disagree with you about the Mexican rest. They're all the same. There's a Mexican restaurant in every strip mall in America, and I swear you will. You can't tell me you can tell the difference between one and another.

[Christy Lee]

There's only one way to figure this out.

[Tom Griswold]

You mean the food?

[Chick McGee]

The food is all the same and.

[Josh Arnold]

They get it in five seconds.

[Chick McGee]

I know it's. That's not good Mexican food. They're. Give it to those gringos and shut them up. That's what they're.

[Tom Griswold]

If you look around, you can find some higher end Mexican restaurants.

[Christy Lee]

You start.

[Tom Griswold]

But my point is, I mean, the guys that think they're bringing back Chi Chi's, don't they realize that you're. Where we're sitting right now? There are four Mexican restaurants within a mile.

[Chick McGee]

Maybe.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe more easily. They just opened a new one where the.

[Christy Lee]

There's only one way to figure this out. You blindfold me and take me to all the restaurants, and I'll tell you.

[Tom Griswold]

It'S like anything else. You're going to have good ones and bad ones. I just can't see that there's going to be a market.

[Chick McGee]

Chi Chi, they're only opening in, like, Minnesota, and it's two locations.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really?

[Chick McGee]

That's what somebody told me.

[Tom Griswold]

No, but I wanted it to play this famous quote from Les Nessman of WKRP in Cincinnati. If you'll just bear with me for just a second, many of us will enjoy this. Go over to your little ward of disappointed people and just sit there.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Winner of this week's Gulf Coast Gulf.

[Chick McGee]

Classic was Chai Chai Rodriguez.

[Pat Godwin]

Finished with a nine under par score.

[Tom Griswold]

Chi Chi Rodriguez. Hopefully, Mr. Rodriguez will play octopus.

[Chick McGee]

I get it.

[Tom Griswold]

He.

[Chick McGee]

He was corrected.

[Josh Arnold]

But then he said it like, I'm not.

[Tom Griswold]

I love Lesnar.

[Christy Lee]

Did you notice how Johnny Fever did it, though? He did it off the air when he corrected him. See, that's a professional broadcaster. Instead of bringing it up on the air.

[Tom Griswold]

I see, I see. Yeah. Coming up, we have the unbelievable, astonishing results of one of these memorabilia auctions. Really amazing. Did you see that?

[Josh Arnold]

I did see it.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, come on.

[Christy Lee]

There's no. You're building this up too much.

[Chick McGee]

Like, it's an Astronomical amount.

[Tom Griswold]

It goes for like eight times what they thought it was going to go.

[Christy Lee]

What is it? Like a cross Autographed by Jesus? What is it?

[Tom Griswold]

And then we had the one last week where that banana thing went for millions of dollars.

[Christy Lee]

How much would that get across? Autographed by Jesus. Oh, I'd be priceless, wouldn't it?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, my gosh.

[Tom Griswold]

Didn't I ask you to go to holiday season? Didn't I say go to your little space with your disgruntled people and just sit there quietly, Immaculate. We're coming right back with. We'll try to bring some joy to your life, which is going to be hard with a defense. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Christy Lee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. There's Christy Lee at the SILAC news desk. Hello, there's Pat Godwin.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, chick.

[Christy Lee]

Hey. A song this hour?

[Pat Godwin]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Christy Lee]

You hear that, Tom?

[Tom Griswold]

What's that?

[Christy Lee]

Pat's gonna do a song this hour.

[Tom Griswold]

About what?

[Pat Godwin]

About two minutes.

[Tom Griswold]

A holiday classic.

[Pat Godwin]

Holiday class.

[Christy Lee]

There you go.

[Chick McGee]

That one.

[Pat Godwin]

This is the holiday.

[Christy Lee]

There's Josh Arnold at the I hate Stephen Singer sidekick desk.

[Chick McGee]

We hate Steven Singer, say most other jewelers. Why say the children around the world? Because Stephen Singer Jewelers gives you the lowest price every single day and we don't like it.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you Yukon Cornelius?

[Christy Lee]

Santa, this is a story.

[Chick McGee]

It's a little story. No phony sales or fake discounts is what we want, say the people of the world. Well, you can get that at Steven Singer jewelers. I hate stephensinger.com.

[Christy Lee]

There'S Ace Cosby. Hey, I'm Chick McGee at the Dude Wipes sports desk. Hello, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello. I want to review one more thing. Kind of sports.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I thought this was super cool. Oh, many of you objected.

[Christy Lee]

Keep in mind he said this is kind of sports and it was super cool.

[Tom Griswold]

There is a robot. The people at Toyota Maker, makers of fine trucks and cars, etc.

[Chick McGee]

None of us cared about this.

[Tom Griswold]

No, this is a quote unquote human humanoid robot, meaning it looks the height and the size of a human being, has a head and arms, et cetera, et cetera. This robot has broken the Guinness World Records for the Farthest basketball shot by a humanoid robot. You hand this robot a basketball and it shoots it. It did it from a distance of 80ft, 6 inches. And I don't know how you guys weren't incredibly impressed. I'm saying this is going to be a halftime show at every NBA game in just a couple years. Mark my words.

[Chick McGee]

I mean, it's just. It has to be set in a perfect place. It's so programmed. That's our problem with it. It's not like you can hand it a basketball and it can shoot from anywhere.

[Tom Griswold]

Not yet.

[Chick McGee]

True.

[Tom Griswold]

Just wait.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

They've got cars that can drive through San Francisco without a driver. They're gonna get one of these robots.

[Chick McGee]

To ace your thoughts on this. If you set a clock to go.

[Christy Lee]

Off alarm at noon, it will go off at noon, not 1201.

[Chick McGee]

Right, right. It's very precisely programmed.

[Tom Griswold]

You got to see this thing. It's a Robot. There's like 25 guys hovering around it, programming.

[Chick McGee]

We saw it. Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It's really cool. I don't know if it can play defense.

[Christy Lee]

What happened?

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe it should be in the NBA.

[Christy Lee]

Spontaneous occurrences. What happened to that?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just saying when. When we. When you go to an NBA game next time, and all of a sudden, at halftime, one of these comes out, you're going to say, oh, yeah, where's the dog? We were on the cutting edge of this thing.

[Chick McGee]

Now you know what's going to happen?

[Josh Arnold]

What?

[Chick McGee]

You're going to show up to see this thing, and it's going to go, actually, I already played here this season, and I want to rest this game.

[Christy Lee]

Load management, that's what.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, okay. All right. Now it's time to turn to the sports page with Chick McGee. What's happening over there?

[Christy Lee]

The Chargers lost to the. The Chiefs there at Arrowhead yesterday. And here's Jim Harbaugh. What he had to say after San Diego loss and fight out my men, sir Andrew said, I'm a little wounded, but not slain.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll lay down and bleed a while.

[Christy Lee]

And we'll rise and fight again. That means, you know, they took it on the chin today, they're going to.

[Tom Griswold]

Come back, and they lost in the.

[Christy Lee]

Last second and play again. It hit off the upright and bounced through. And now, due to popular demand, here's Jim Harbaugh's joke that he told.

[Tom Griswold]

Why were six afraid of seven? Because seven, eight, nine. Six, seven, eight, nine.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, very, very good.

[Christy Lee]

You get this on the way home. You know who that sounded like? The. The contempt. Right at the End of it. A little bit like you, Tom, trying to explain the joke. He was blaming the audience because they didn't. They didn't get it.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe it's his dynamic delivery.

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe.

[Christy Lee]

What do you mean you think he needs to work? How are you? He comes out and he does a little soft shoe maybe.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey. Looks at the reporters. Anybody from out of town? Oh, wait a minute. I guess you will agree I'm in Kansas City.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. What am I? This is not even in San Diego. It's Kansas City. A person familiar with the deal tells this reporter that outfielder Juan Soto and the New York Mets have agreed to a record $765 million 15 year contract. The person, person on condition of anonymity.

[Chick McGee]

He's over there complaining like the money would have gone to her.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I know that's what she wanted. I can hit a fastball. She said, what the hell?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh.

[Christy Lee]

Soto's deal is the largest. Yeah, largest and longest in Major League baseball history, topping sho. Hey, Ohtani.

[Chick McGee]

Hey.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, Tony.

[Christy Lee]

700 million 10 year contract with the Dodgers and Fernando Tatis's junior's 340 million 14 year contract with San Diego. Soto's deal does not include deferred money. $51 million a year. AAV.

[Chick McGee]

So we're eking closer to that billion dollar.

[Christy Lee]

Billion dollar.

[Chick McGee]

And we'll see in the next 10 years.

[Tom Griswold]

There was the next year. So yeah, absolutely.

[Christy Lee]

Do you think, Tom? Really? And there. There was a report that like five or six of the major league baseball franchises cost less when they bought them. Well then Soto's contract or. Or pretty much equal DeSoto's contract.

[Tom Griswold]

We have a huge money story in the world of memorabilia coming up. Staggering.

[Christy Lee]

What's that?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Sports or Hollywood?

[Tom Griswold]

Hollywood or history?

[Christy Lee]

Hollywood. Hollywood, is it?

[Josh Arnold]

You want to do it?

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

A pair of the famous ruby slippers worn by Judy Garland and the wizard of Oz sold at auction.

[Christy Lee]

I wonder where this will end up.

[Josh Arnold]

Heritage Auctions estimated they're guessing at Studio 54.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm guessing on a fat guy.

[Josh Arnold]

They estimated they would fetch $3 million or more. But the shoes sold for a winning bid of $28 million.

[Chick McGee]

My goodness.

[Christy Lee]

That's 14 million bucks a shoe.

[Josh Arnold]

Including the Dallas based auction house's fee, the unknown buyer will ultimately pay 32 and a half million bucks. The auction company.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. You shouldn't have bought him through Ticketmaster, the bedass. How much was the fee?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, it's. What's 32.5 minus 28? I can't do math.

[Pat Godwin]

How many pairs are there? Don't we get the story a lot?

[Tom Griswold]

Three, I think I want to say. Was it like Leonardo DiCaprio and Steven Spielberg and some consortium bought a pair for 2 million for a museum in Hollywood. 2 million as opposed to 28.

[Chick McGee]

I saw a pair of the Smithsonian.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you?

[Chick McGee]

They're. They're ratty and gross. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Four and a half million dollars would be the fee for that. Man, we need to be in the auction business.

[Tom Griswold]

Steep. To get up there with a gavel.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. They received the slippers from Michael Shaw, a memorabilia collector who originally owned the shoes. Back in 2005, Mr. Shaw had loaned the bear to the Judy Garland Museum in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, where they were stolen by a Mr. Jerry. Jerry. Oh, Terry. John Martin. Their whereabouts unknown until the FBI recovered them in 2018.

[Chick McGee]

And that's a hell of a deal. Actually, now that I think about it, that. Because that the seller should pay the auction fee, not the buyer.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

It's kind of like when you.

[Chick McGee]

That must have been included in the deal of. Hey, by the way, you also have to pay the fee.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, man, that's a good negotiation. But I. I remember at the time we did the story that the museum was also going to try to buy them back.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

No guarantee. That wasn't.

[Tom Griswold]

That museum was in a. Like a shed, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

No, for 28 million bucks, I want. I want the. What? Glenda the Good Witch's panties thrown in.

[Chick McGee]

I can get you some Billy Barty panties.

[Tom Griswold]

That is.

[Chick McGee]

I know a guy.

[Christy Lee]

Best. Best museum across the country.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, my gosh.

[Christy Lee]

You gotta go with first ladies museum. Is that. What is that in Canton? Yeah, it's a museum to all of first ladies.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sure. That's interesting.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. It was made. Yeah. Is it Canton? I think. I think it is somewhere like that.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. How about that?

[Christy Lee]

Somebody will tell me.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

In any event, I wouldn't go to Judy Garland's museum, but I go to the First Ladies Museum. Would you see maybe Eisenhower's hat?

[Chick McGee]

Sure, sure. Let me see.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Outfit.

[Chick McGee]

Eleanor Corset. Oh, you think they have the identify. They have the spotted pink dress.

[Christy Lee]

You think they have the pink dress?

[Chick McGee]

Where is that?

[Josh Arnold]

Where is that in the front?

[Christy Lee]

That's. That's the big ticket item right there. That might be it.

[Chick McGee]

This. That is a gnarly, gross artifact. So why would anybody want that?

[Pat Godwin]

Somebody's got it.

[Christy Lee]

I want them to see what they did do there.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, God. Okay. Thank you. Sorry. In any event, that just strikes me as being outrageous.

[Chick McGee]

That is outrageous.

[Josh Arnold]

But there's a gentleman stored in the national archives building in College Park, Maryland.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, okay.

[Josh Arnold]

I bet it's not on display till the public and will not be until at least 2103, according to this story.

[Christy Lee]

Whoa. Yeah, well, I've got no chance at all to see it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, unless you break in.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah, I got.

[Tom Griswold]

Boy, there's a.

[Chick McGee]

There's a heist.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, there's a heist movie. Oh, God.

[Christy Lee]

What are we doing? We're stealing the pill.

[Tom Griswold]

Pink pill. It would be Jackie. Jackie O. Shins 11.

[Josh Arnold]

The vault also contains Lee Harvey Oswald's rifle bullets and bullet fragments.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that we'll never see because it'll prove that he didn't actually fire.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, God. Socialist conspiracy theories. Let's. Let's move forward. We have a nice letter to read here because we want to talk about one of the great gifts out there. Omaha steaks. This is terrific. You can give these to someone, you know, out of town. And what? It's so easy. Just take a few minutes, take your phone and go online and order. Josh, tell me more.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, our buddy Mike has written in. He says. Hey, guys, Longtime listener. I drive a motor grader. Oh, man, those are nice long. If you're. If you're driving. You know those motor graders that grade the land, they're like big old.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, wow. He just wanted to say.

[Pat Godwin]

I mean, I do.

[Tom Griswold]

Does the nature of the vehicle have any bearing them?

[Chick McGee]

What I want you to tell us, we're dealing with a man who works in a rural area who probably knows what good steak is.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. There we go.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Justified.

[Chick McGee]

But he wanted to say thanks. I recently connected with my birth mom. I was adopted 56 years ago, and I sent her some Omaha steaks. Among other things. He says, of course, it was great to use the BTS code and get 30 bucks off at the end. That's right. The code is BTS. That'll get you 30 bucks off again.

[Tom Griswold]

Thanks.

[Chick McGee]

A merry Christmas to all. Thank you, Mike. And congrats on reconnecting.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow, that's great.

[Chick McGee]

Wonderful.

[Tom Griswold]

And tell me more about Omaha State.

[Chick McGee]

You know, I was effing going to nothing.

[Tom Griswold]

You're going to tell me more about the road grader, weren't you?

[Christy Lee]

I want to hear more about the road.

[Chick McGee]

Anybody who works for the show behind every ad goes to Tom. From now on. None of us or no one else is doing them.

[Christy Lee]

No, just Tom.

[Chick McGee]

That's how he wants it.

[Christy Lee]

That's how he wants it.

[Chick McGee]

Leave us out of it.

[Christy Lee]

No, no.

[Christy Lee]

Go ahead, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

I can't because I've got a, I'm being trained on my road grader and I think you raised, you gave me.

[Chick McGee]

That email to read.

[Tom Griswold]

I know. I can't stand it.

[Christy Lee]

It's not funny anymore.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, all right.

[Tom Griswold]

I, I, I'm too busy over here clenching what's coming up in sports?

[Christy Lee]

Chickpea something. You'll like the word fart. How about that?

[Chick McGee]

I'm on board.

[Tom Griswold]

That's not today.

[Christy Lee]

There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

That'd be a gamble.

[Christy Lee]

Fart shark.

[Tom Griswold]

I can't take it. Also speaking of stakes, we have, believe it or not, science and stake in the news coming up in a very interesting way. Also we have something called the Goldilocks zone. Ladies, I'd never heard of it. You're going to like it. This is the Bob and Tom Show. Subtle results. Still you, but with fewer lines. Botox Cosmetic Adabatulinum toxin A is a prescription medicine used to temporarily make moderate to severe frown lines, crow's feet and.

[Christy Lee]

Forehead lines look better in adults.

[Tom Griswold]

Effects of Botox cosmetic may spread hours.

[Reno Collier]

To weeks after injection causing serious symptoms.

[Tom Griswold]

Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems or muscle weakness may be a sign of a life threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Don't receive Botox cosmetic if you have a skin infection. Side effects may include allergic reactions, injection site pain, headache, eyebrow and eyelid drooping and eyelid swelling. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms and dizziness. Tell your doctor about medical history, muscle or nerve conditions including ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert Eaton syndrome and medications including botulinum toxins as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. For full safety information visit botoxcosmetic.com or call 877-351-0300. See for yourself at botoxcosmetic. Hey.

[Christy Lee]

Hey, hey, hey. Testing 1, 2. Welcome back to the Bob and Tom show, ladies and gentlemen. And and real quick, it's Tom Griswold, ladies and gentlemen.

[Chick McGee]

Tommy.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you. Good to be here.

[Christy Lee]

100% Tom. You 100% buddy.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I'm here. I'm doing just fine. All right. Okay. Okay. We have a lot to get to today.

[Christy Lee]

I would say one of the most important attributes of this job is probably to be outgoing and in a good mood. Wouldn't you say, Josh?

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Well, I think it helps.

[Tom Griswold]

Josh obviously just lost it during the last read.

[Chick McGee]

Well, it.

[Josh Arnold]

Understandably.

[Tom Griswold]

So let me ask the question. No one knew the answer. And then he got.

[Pat Godwin]

That's not what happened.

[Chick McGee]

That also may have come across angrier than I was.

[Tom Griswold]

We had a. We had a nice guy named Mike from South Carolina. He. This is a great story. He connected with his birth mom after 56 years. And among other things, he sent her a box of Omaha Steaks. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

It's nice.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a nice story. But he drives some kind of motor grader.

[Chick McGee]

Sure. You've all seen him.

[Tom Griswold]

Which one is that exactly?

[Christy Lee]

Oh.

[Chick McGee]

Big old long track. Sometimes yellow, sometimes yellow.

[Pat Godwin]

Yellow.

[Josh Arnold]

Sometimes green spikes on them that they pull behind.

[Tom Griswold]

Your point is? Mike in South Carolina is a badass. He's got a serious business. He knows stakes. This guy knows his stakes.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. And you are further proving my point that you don't think we can do ads.

[Christy Lee]

Right?

[Chick McGee]

Because you are now trying to redo that ad.

[Christy Lee]

Speaker000. Yes. Yes you are. And it's okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm underscoring the fact that we appreciate Mike very much. And I'm sure that we.

[Christy Lee]

Sure.

[Chick McGee]

We certainly.

[Tom Griswold]

Roads he's grading or smooth.

[Chick McGee]

I bet they're even.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I happen to have relatives in South Carolina. Right at this moment. They're probably enjoying one of the roads he graded.

[Chick McGee]

He may just be grading land. Also.

[Pat Godwin]

A plus.

[Chick McGee]

That's. He's an A plus grader.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I'll send you the name of the hotel where the girls are in Charleston. You can go grade there. A nice little family birthday thing.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh.

[Christy Lee]

And you're.

[Josh Arnold]

When you're here, why are you excluded alone?

[Tom Griswold]

No. I'm. Finn and I hung out at the house all week.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's sweet.

[Tom Griswold]

We had a great time.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

That is fun.

[Tom Griswold]

I want to congratulate the Apple Computer people.

[Christy Lee]

Oh.

[Josh Arnold]

What are they getting your computer?

[Tom Griswold]

Putting 100 miles on my car.

[Josh Arnold]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, the new computers, they only accept the. What is it? The C input. Right.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So you turn the thing on and you've got a. You've got a mouse. You got to couple the mouse to the computer. And it didn't do it automatically.

[Christy Lee]

You got a pair.

[Tom Griswold]

It sort of pair it. You look it up and it tells you to pair it you got to start clicking on stuff you don't understand. I don't have a mouse. Right.

[Christy Lee]

I'm trying to click. You can click on it on your keyboard.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I did all that and none of it worked. So then I went and got a mouse, got back and realized, wait a minute, this is the wrong input. Then I went back and got an adapter.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

And then I plugged it in, and with two clicks, I was in business.

[Josh Arnold]

There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

So $60 later and many, many miles.

[Chick McGee]

You know, one day those Apple people will get their act together.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

And start.

[Christy Lee]

Because their. I think their mission statement is to make it as difficult as possible for them.

[Tom Griswold]

It wouldn't kill them. It wouldn't kill them to put the input on the back like the other.

[Josh Arnold]

Computer or have every cord be the same for.

[Tom Griswold]

That's what they're doing now. They're.

[Christy Lee]

But if you USBC. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So you have to have. It's a catch 22. You have to, you have to have a wired one to get the.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm more concerned how do you find. How you found parking at the mall to get to the Apple Store?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that was part of the journey. That's why I said 100 miles.

[Pat Godwin]

You gotta cheat and go to the restaurant.

[Christy Lee]

Why don't you.

[Josh Arnold]

I went to the restaurant the other day for lunch. You couldn't find a parking spot?

[Christy Lee]

Something like that. I'd Uber for that. I Uber whenever I can.

[Chick McGee]

No kidding. You would?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

People were parked in the grass, in the median. They were all along that. It was crazy.

[Tom Griswold]

Another reason to go to Omaha Steaks, you know.

[Christy Lee]

Josh, say something about. Tell him. It's okay, Josh. We'll make it up later.

[Tom Griswold]

So you wouldn't have had to park at the Omaha Stakes?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Josh Arnold]

So anyway, did you go see Moana, too? With vin?

[Tom Griswold]

Did not. Oh, okay.

[Christy Lee]

No. No movies this weekend.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

To transfer the content of the one computer to the new one was 14 hours.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, geez.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, now we return to the sports page.

[Christy Lee]

That's sports, Tom. That's it, baby.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, we don't have our world record.

[Christy Lee]

I got no world record.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I thought I printed one.

[Tom Griswold]

I put up my dukes, bad things will happen.

[Christy Lee]

I'll do this in my Walter Cronkite voice.

[Chick McGee]

Very nice.

[Christy Lee]

United States wildlife officials say the world's oldest known wild bird recently laid an egg at the age of 74.

[Tom Griswold]

Now think about that.

[Christy Lee]

Now think about that.

[Tom Griswold]

74 years old. Walter.

[Christy Lee]

Walter.

[Tom Griswold]

To lay an egg. This is. This is Mick Jagger territory. Robert Robert De Niro Pacific region of Pacific region.

[Christy Lee]

U.S. fish and Wildlife Service said the Laysan albatross A L Y S a n albatross. They have named Wisdom return to wise Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge.

[Tom Griswold]

I just think it's immoral to charge these birds to get back into a walk.

[Chick McGee]

It absolutely is. Get rid of that gold.

[Tom Griswold]

These are wild animals. They shouldn't have to pay to get in atoll.

[Christy Lee]

They she laid what experts estimate might be her 60th egg.

[Josh Arnold]

Whoa.

[Christy Lee]

This is the first egg Wisdom has laid in four years.

[Tom Griswold]

But I understand it made a hell of an omelette.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Christy Lee]

Officials are optimistic that the egg will hatch.

[Tom Griswold]

This is where this gets sad.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, my God.

[Christy Lee]

Wisdom and her mate, Aki Akiami.

[Chick McGee]

Come on.

[Christy Lee]

A k E A K A m I.

[Chick McGee]

That's Akiyaki.

[Christy Lee]

Ami.

[Tom Griswold]

You lost.

[Christy Lee]

The last I had returned to the Aki aka in the Pacific Ocean. Delaying hatch eggs since 06.

[Chick McGee]

Aki. Aki.

[Josh Arnold]

So what's the sad part?

[Christy Lee]

Albatrosses mate for life and lay one egg per year. However. Aki A k. Come on me.

[Tom Griswold]

Aki.

[Christy Lee]

Come on.

[Tom Griswold]

Come on me.

[Josh Arnold]

Thank you.

[Christy Lee]

[Chick McGee]

Because that would be bukagi.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh. Very nice. Bugaki Akiyami. See?

[Christy Lee]

They miss me saying come on. Your hammers has not been seen for several years. And Wisdom began interacting with another male when she returned.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh.

[Chick McGee]

So he's Possibly.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, he's probably. Probably died. Obviously, she's moved on.

[Tom Griswold]

She's.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

The merry widow.

[Josh Arnold]

Widows do check.

[Chick McGee]

You know why male albatrosses die before the females, right?

[Christy Lee]

No. Why?

[Chick McGee]

Because they want to.

[Tom Griswold]

How many men would like to be you?

[Chick McGee]

Make me push out an egg of gear.

[Christy Lee]

I don't believe you.

[Josh Arnold]

That's how all women talk.

[Chick McGee]

Even women?

[Josh Arnold]

Yep. Even female birds.

[Christy Lee]

Even women. All women chirp, chirp, chirp.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Where you think?

[Pat Godwin]

Me, Aki, Aki, me.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. All you do is fly around. You never are home to help raise these kids.

[Tom Griswold]

It's kind of a fun story, don't you think?

[Chick McGee]

Interesting.

[Tom Griswold]

In the world of science. 74 years old, laying an egg every year.

[Josh Arnold]

That is pretty amazing. 60 babies.

[Tom Griswold]

That thing's got to be gone. Prolapsed, looks like. Speaking of meat, Pat, they look like little steak.

[Christy Lee]

We went over this one. There is a. There's an anus and a urinary tract and a. An egg shoot on birds.

[Pat Godwin]

You know this a lot going on.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Does the birdie. Does the egg come out? The place where the seed goes in?

[Christy Lee]

Yes, but it. It starts from a different place than where.

[Chick McGee]

In fact, there's a famous albatross who on film once went. 2V, 2A, 2E. Yeah, that's egg shoot.

[Christy Lee]

Egg shoot.

[Chick McGee]

2E.

[Christy Lee]

DVD.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that is. That's some kind of porn talk, isn't it?

[Christy Lee]

Dve.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, I'm sorry I asked. Double.

[Chick McGee]

Double egg shoot.

[Tom Griswold]

And that's.

[Christy Lee]

That's what gets me going.

[Tom Griswold]

And that's sports. Well, we do have a real quick letter.

[Chick McGee]

Egg shoot. Egg shoot.

[Christy Lee]

To mouth.

[Tom Griswold]

This. We'll get to the letter when we come back.

[Christy Lee]

I can't wait.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, Christy, real quick. We talk about great gifts a lot. And this is a little mockup of an ABA basketball.

[Josh Arnold]

Correct.

[Tom Griswold]

And if you've got a basketball fan, maybe you got a son or daughter that loves playing hoops. The American Basketball association, of course. You want me to throw this to you?

[Christy Lee]

[Josh Arnold]

You buy a great gift for a basketball [e-mail]. they have an actual ABA. They've licensed.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, they have the licensed ABA balls. And this is. This is all going to a great charity. All of the funds, every dime, goes to the Dropping Dimes Dimes Foundation. This is benef. A benefit for the. The guys in the ABA that are. Now. A lot of these guys are in their late 70s and older, and a bunch of them, sadly, have died, and they really never got their pension and they need help and the NBA really hasn't stepped up to help these guys. So anyway, there's also. There's a movie about this called the Waiting Game, right?

[Josh Arnold]

And you can actually see the Waiting Game. It's called the waiting game movie.com you can stream it. They're going to be. They're trying to get distribution. But it is a fabulous film. Got 100% on rotten tomatoes and it explains the situation and what's going on with these guys.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a great book.

[Josh Arnold]

Dr. J's there on it. Bob hostesses in it.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a great book about the merge from Bob, Bob Nadelicki and Robin Miller. I highly recommend it. But it's a cool gift and it's a great benefit. So you can do something nice today if you get a chance. L A N A sports.com the ABA basketball. We're coming right back with Christie Lee and maybe another song from Pat. I really enjoyed that.

[Tom Griswold]

Play with them, Ace. You're exactly correct. I do have four right now.

[Josh Arnold]

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, I put multiples in there.

[Christy Lee]

He fans them out.

[Tom Griswold]

They're fun to play with. They're They're. I just enjoy them. And they're compostable.

[Christy Lee]

You could probably build some sort of log cabin with.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that'd be fun.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, you could build something with us.

[Josh Arnold]

Have you built. Have you built gingerbread houses yet?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, we have four gingerbread houses up and running. I spent the weekend this. You're not going to believe what I had to do this weekend.

[Christy Lee]

You know, and when he says they're up and running, they have electric and.

[Tom Griswold]

Cables, WI fi, two major hardware store runs, plus the two runs for the computer. My. One of my daughters, my youngest got a. My 9 year old got a crayfish from school.

[Chick McGee]

That's nice.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So put in an aquarium last week. Then I found out not big enough. Have to have a bigger one.

[Chick McGee]

No kidding.

[Tom Griswold]

So I went to my friends at the reef. Great store.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I love that store.

[Tom Griswold]

My buddy helped me out there, but. Yeah, and then I had.

[Josh Arnold]

Wait a minute. They gave her a crawfish or crayfish. What is it?

[Tom Griswold]

It's a crayfish. It's like a mini lobster.

[Josh Arnold]

They give everybody a crayfish.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know. But it arrived at my house, and so then I took a picture of this thing over to the guy at the reef, and I showed it to him, and he goes, well, first of all, that's a invasive species, so don't release it.

[Chick McGee]

Well, I'd walk right out of that store.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You know what? I came here to buy an aquarium. I didn't come here for a lesson.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

He was laughing, kiss my ass. But it was. It was. So I got.

[Christy Lee]

Shut it up.

[Chick McGee]

Shut it up some.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm looking. Water or you got. Then you got to buy water. The whole thing.

[Chick McGee]

Gotta buy water.

[Christy Lee]

Did you get your rocks? You got.

[Chick McGee]

This guy saw you come like.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I didn't know. He said you could use tap water, but you got to put pills in and let it sit. So then I had to get this creech creature and move it from the one to the other. So I took my.

[Christy Lee]

Wait a minute. Did you do it like Willie's Waterbed Warehouse? You filled up the aquarium there at the store?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I knocked that.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

But I. Then I had to get this critter and. I'm not gonna touch this.

[Chick McGee]

Just kill it.

[Tom Griswold]

So I took spaghetti tongs and dipped in there and moved it.

[Christy Lee]

Why does she want to keep it?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know. She's nine. We. We already have three dogs. And I'm not. We're not gonna get a guinea pig, right?

[Chick McGee]

I have an idea.

[Christy Lee]

What I bought under my heel right in front of.

[Chick McGee]

Let's have a battle to the death of this crawdad and Jimmy's lizard, Speedy.

[Pat Godwin]

Speedy is still alive. Got the medicine in him. He's doing a little bit better. All right, he has the gouge.

[Christy Lee]

Saline solution.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

He's got the bag by the bed.

[Chick McGee]

I'm going to put this crayfish and Speedy in a jar and shake it and set it down and we'll watch them fight.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And the funny is this crayfish. What do I feed him? He goes, they'll eat anything. What? They'll eat hamburger, they'll eat kale. They'll eat anything.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

What, they don't have crayfish chow?

[Tom Griswold]

They do have. Yeah. He goes, yeah, they'll Trust me.

[Chick McGee]

You know, they have tiny, tiny fingers on their mouth shelves that tear things apart.

[Christy Lee]

Just shove them in.

[Tom Griswold]

And of course, I'm terrified of this thing. And then the directions say, be careful because they'll crawl out of the.

[Josh Arnold]

Why are you terrified of them?

[Tom Griswold]

Because they have pictures on them.

[Josh Arnold]

They're not gonna hurt.

[Christy Lee]

The worst episode of Saw ever. You just put five or six of those little crayfish on. On somebody, have them tied down and slowly eat their body.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah. What a way to go.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. How about that, huh?

[Tom Griswold]

No, wait a.

[Josh Arnold]

Now, wait. Do you still have your goldfish too?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, the goldfish is doing great.

[Josh Arnold]

Can you put the goldfish and save.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

[Christy Lee]

But is that the original? Is that the original goldfish?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Switched. And then I. Since I had the original tank for the little guy. Yeah, I got. I got a beta fish for that one. Now for the three gallon tank.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, all right.

[Tom Griswold]

As opposed to the 30. Now, speaking of pets, got this nice letter from Bowling Green, Kentucky. Bob was kind enough to write. He says, tally ho. Yeah, the scene in Porky's where they're sitting in the theater during the movie and your best friend says out loud, hey, Bob. Tally, Tally. You're a tally whacker. This guy's name is Bob Talley. You following me here?

[Chick McGee]

Not at all.

[Josh Arnold]

We were talking about early this morning.

[Chick McGee]

Is something that shouldn't have been read on the air.

[Tom Griswold]

It's just placed in front of.

[Chick McGee]

Summarily ignored when it's given it to you.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

We were talking about names when we first came.

[Christy Lee]

Awful.

[Chick McGee]

Radio, awful.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I'm sorry, Josh. You have two minutes on the funniness.

[Chick McGee]

I was hoping you would get.

[Tom Griswold]

How about this one?

[Chick McGee]

Yes, please. Any pallet question?

[Christy Lee]

No, I Demanded.

[Chick McGee]

And by the way, I don't blame Bob Talley.

[Christy Lee]

Christie is on to something. I don't know what she's talking about.

[Josh Arnold]

The opening break, we were talking about names because you said something about that they made fun of your name. I was talking about Gypsy Christie Lee.

[Tom Griswold]

This guy's name is Tally and so he was called Italy Tally Whacker.

[Chick McGee]

Of course.

[Tom Griswold]

The English slang for the male member.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, shot chuckle.

[Chick McGee]

Sure, sure.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

This doesn't make any.

[Tom Griswold]

Coming up, we have the hours ago the best Tally Whacker news.

[Josh Arnold]

It's very weird Sports.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait till you hear this story, huh?

[Christy Lee]

Sports, sports, sports is over. Dude. Dude.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I think Tally Whackers used in sports. How about this one? Wow.

[Christy Lee]

Why not?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm not. I haven't edited.

[Chick McGee]

Can't get any worse.

[Christy Lee]

Let's try something else.

[Tom Griswold]

You'll like this one chick. I also have two golden retrievers.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

They ride in the backseat of my truck.

[Christy Lee]

Sure they do.

[Tom Griswold]

Over the weekend, I took Tom's advice. I opened all four doors of the truck, took out my leaf blower, and at first it looked like a small cyclone of dog hair flying around. Eventually, I cleaned out the entire interior of my car. My truck is spotless. Again, don't give you a hard time about this because it works. It's a great technique, Joe. Thank you, Joe.

[Chick McGee]

Again, that was meant for you to read off the air.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I'm telling. This is a great way to clean your car. You sure you can vacuum, but if you really want to get to the stuff under the seat, you got to blow it out.

[Christy Lee]

Dear Bob and Tom.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, no.

[Christy Lee]

What are you guys thinking? You know, by the end of the week, each of you will have come down with whatever it is that Tom is exposing you to right now.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I know.

[Christy Lee]

Send that man home. Dana from Michigan. For realsies?

[Chick McGee]

For reals.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you, Dana. No, I have an intestinal disorder.

[Chick McGee]

It's not going to. Well, when I get.

[Christy Lee]

What do you think?

[Tom Griswold]

Ebola's intestinal salmon. Oh, so I'm supposed to eat more salmon? Is that what it was?

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

No, no. A bad salmon.

[Christy Lee]

Who knows? I don't believe you because this time evidently I'm supposed to be less intelligent. I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

It's going to be something stuff.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I know this sounds like something.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I just had my. My physical last week and the doctor told me he gave me a list of some stuff I'm supposed to be eating more of.

[Josh Arnold]

So what? What a popcorn, French fries?

[Christy Lee]

I don't think you can more salmon.

[Tom Griswold]

Avocado. He said avocado. And his quote was, for God's sake, eat some carbs again.

[Chick McGee]

I got a list of something you can eat. It's one word.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Crow. And it's not healthy because they'll have two words.

[Tom Griswold]

Are.

[Chick McGee]

And.

[Josh Arnold]

I was right, you know, we need them.

[Tom Griswold]

We need. We need a pallet cleanser.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, no. Dear Josh, I'm selling my penny farthing.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, no kidding.

[Christy Lee]

For $1,500. It has a 48 inch wheel. Most penny farthings go for upwards three to five grand, sometimes even more. Exclamation point. This is an opportunity you don't want to miss out. I am a reenactor in this bike is always the main attraction, no matter what event I'm at. The guy who made this bike has made penny farthings exactly like this one. For movies like Disney's Haunted Mansion with Eddie Murphy. In the Wild west with Will Smith. Oh, and there's a picture of him.

[Chick McGee]

Wow, look at that.

[Christy Lee]

Being a great actor.

[Tom Griswold]

It's got the gigantic wheel up in front. Josh, if you're going to do that, let me call my orthopedic surgeon friend. Yes, so. So I'm thinking probably a crushed elbow, if not a broken shoulder.

[Christy Lee]

I know exactly where this is. Lake Geoghe, Ashtabula up there. Northern Ohio lake.

[Chick McGee]

How about that?

[Tom Griswold]

Coming up, the Ace Cosby joke of the day. Christie, what have you got over there?

[Josh Arnold]

Coming up, we're going to talk about gingerbread houses. I was trying to get there, but apparently I got lost. The Goldilocks zone and the famous Mariah Carey All I Want for Christmas is you song. Could it have peaked? Could it be over?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I don't think so. I like it. Always has a place in my heart.

[Tom Griswold]

I think it's a great song. I've heard it a lot. But we'll see. We'll see what's going on. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

Christy's got a really, really cool podcast coming up. How soon are you gonna release? Release?

[Josh Arnold]

January. I'll let you know.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. I'm. I'm looking forward to it.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I hadn't heard about it.

[Tom Griswold]

No. Well, that's because it just started.

[Josh Arnold]

You know what?

[Tom Griswold]

You know, I'll tell you what. You hit. You hit him from the left, I'll hit him from the right.

[Chick McGee]

No, the joke is she was.

[Josh Arnold]

I was just talking about during the break, and I can't imagine.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, thanks. Let's.

[Christy Lee]

Hey, Pat Godwin. Ace Cosby. Hey, Josh.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

I'm Chick Tom. Go, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Penis.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

You want to talk about my w. Yeah, I do. Do you know what the Goldilocks zone is? Is.

[Christy Lee]

I'm going to assume the underside.

[Chick McGee]

It's. When it's. It looks just right.

[Josh Arnold]

Thank you. That's exactly correct.

[Tom Griswold]

The Goldilocks zone size of a male.

[Josh Arnold]

Member that ladies say is just right. Yeah. A new survey reveals that women apparently do feel that size matters, according to A poll of 1387 adult women conducted by Bad Girls Bible.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, see that May.

[Christy Lee]

What's the name of this.

[Tom Griswold]

What I hear some of these surveys.

[Josh Arnold]

Bad Girls Bible.

[Tom Griswold]

This is why this source of news is important.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Bad Girl Bible probably is going to be getting a relatively small segment of our culture.

[Christy Lee]

And right on the mast head. It says for size queens.

[Chick McGee]

No. Oh, you had me.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, well, but maybe these. It's a. Maybe a great sample because these women, if they're bad girls, have seen and experienced a lot.

[Chick McGee]

I'm the only one that's uneasy with that.

[Christy Lee]

This is absolutely. From the website.

[Chick McGee]

Let me go. Bad Girls Journal.

[Christy Lee]

Have Better Sex Tonight. The Bad Girl's Bible is your illustrated guide to having better sex. You'll discover how to have more orgasms, satisfy your man, and give him the best world conversation of his life. You may want to start taking our quiz and shockingly accurate oral assessment that will uncover just how good you are at this particular talent. You'll also learn what to do if you don't rock his world. And this gets back to something Tom's always said.

[Josh Arnold]

What's that?

[Christy Lee]

You know, advertising the negative. You don't want to be not Being able to satisfy your man. Here's where you're disappointing him.

[Tom Griswold]

Now a lot of these women's magazines, they like, you know, Cosmo and always sort of, you're not worthy ladies. You know, it's ridiculous.

[Chick McGee]

Cosmo says you're fat. Now I ain't down with that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

As sir mix a lot would say, remember he was knighted.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Very good. That's right now. So I'm sorry.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

So the so called. What is it? The Goldilocks zone.

[Josh Arnold]

Yep. That would be the most favored penis size range or otherwise known as the Goldilocks range for women.

[Tom Griswold]

This is length or circumference length.

[Josh Arnold]

Right. Now let's stick with the one.

[Chick McGee]

And I misunderstood this. A woman once told me she wanted me to be in the Goldilocks zone. So I poured porridge all over my face.

[Christy Lee]

Why don't we have. Why isn't. Why isn't porridge making a better, a bigger footprint?

[Tom Griswold]

I can tell you a place, Oatmeal. I got, I got a restaurant that has porridge.

[Christy Lee]

Does it say porridge on it?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

What does it taste like?

[Josh Arnold]

And it costs 10 times what oatmeal would cost because they call it porridge.

[Christy Lee]

Do they have that at. Sorry to bother you. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What are you eating at an orphanage? Commissary. Who has porridge?

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, Mr. G. I tell you this.

[Christy Lee]

They don't have any parking and you're bothering them when you order. I can tell you that you have.

[Josh Arnold]

To wait an hour to get a table.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a great place. But they do have, they do have porridge and it's, it's grainy and it's not really the same thing as oatmeal.

[Christy Lee]

Sounds delicious.

[Josh Arnold]

Six to eight inches, by the way, is the most favored penis size range.

[Tom Griswold]

What is it?

[Josh Arnold]

Six to eight?

[Christy Lee]

Most favorite nation.

[Tom Griswold]

Now that's not, that's not diameter.

[Josh Arnold]

No, not.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh.

[Josh Arnold]

According to this.

[Christy Lee]

Didn't you say yours was not that long? But it's thin.

[Pat Godwin]

It may be short, but it's thin.

[Josh Arnold]

7.22 inches. The average ideal penis length for women according to the survey.

[Christy Lee]

Average. Bad girls Bible Girls Bible survey.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. 90% of women say that size matters for sexual satisfaction, with certain penis sizes being just simply too small for them. However, 85 of the women polled find some penises too big. Sure to be satisfied.

[Chick McGee]

I would think they'd be.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh yeah, that can hurt.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't I know, don't I? Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Nearly 60 of respond to be in the major leagues.

[Christy Lee]

People who don't have always complain.

[Josh Arnold]

60% of women said that a partner possessing a penis too large could contribute to them ending their relationship.

[Pat Godwin]

That happens.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Is that what happened?

[Tom Griswold]

That happens.

[Christy Lee]

Don't come at me with that thing. Get out of here.

[Tom Griswold]

But on the other hand, baseball.

[Christy Lee]

Bad. I joined the minor leagues.

[Tom Griswold]

How many have ended because of a small one?

[Josh Arnold]

40% of women admitted they would consider cheating on a partner with a small penis.

[Christy Lee]

I'm breaking up. Cheating.

[Chick McGee]

My goodness.

[Tom Griswold]

Again, it doesn't.

[Christy Lee]

How was that? How was that question? Phrase.

[Josh Arnold]

I know, right? And 25 said they might cheat on a partner due to their large penis.

[Christy Lee]

So What?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

So 85 are cheating. Rather be big or small.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, either. This is where you get the Goldilocks thing. It's either too big or too small.

[Christy Lee]

What if you like to have sex with a bear? What is that a golden.

[Josh Arnold]

Nearly 60% of the women pulled said penis length and width.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Are equally important for their sexual.

[Chick McGee]

Of course. Of course.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. You gotta have the girth, right?

[Chick McGee]

Sure. You wanna.

[Tom Griswold]

I've never. And I've never heard the. The analogy to Goldilocks before.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Pat Godwin]

Kind of breaking and entering.

[Christy Lee]

Hey, Pat, do you have a song to do instead?

[Tom Griswold]

We like wacky. We like to assume. We like to assume all relations are consensual.

[Christy Lee]

I'm curious to how many women like that scenario. Somebody breaking into their house and I.

[Tom Griswold]

Doubt if they're a burglar.

[Christy Lee]

Scenario.

[Chick McGee]

Right. Completely consensual.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. Yeah. They know it's you, Pat. You have a song about that?

[Pat Godwin]

Actually, I do, actually. Yeah. Maybe we could 47 Sycamore fantasy.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's right. You do.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. Okay. Well, we'll certainly look forward to that. No, because I promised this earlier, ladies and gentlemen.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, chick.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, Ace? What do you get when you cross a cocker spaniel, a poodle and a rooster? What do you get when you cross a cocker spaniel? A poodle and a rooster? I don't know, Ace. What a cocker poodle do.

[Tom Griswold]

You got animals. You've got your labradoodles, your golden doodles.

[Christy Lee]

We talked about eggs yesterday.

[Tom Griswold]

Bernadoodles. There are all these doodles out there.

[Josh Arnold]

The egg laying bird. I'm pretty sure this albatross.

[Christy Lee]

That's a.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a fun joke.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, forgot.

[Tom Griswold]

What is it again. A cockadoodle. What is it? Yeah, that's very nice.

[Chick McGee]

You don't like that, Josh, I think.

[Tom Griswold]

Just meet your standards.

[Christy Lee]

Let me tell you something.

[Chick McGee]

I think children everywhere enjoy it.

[Christy Lee]

I hope Josh don't doesn't get mad at me because of this, but early on, Josh rolled his eyes. I mean, during the setup, he rolled.

[Chick McGee]

I don't like knowing the punchline.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you did? You know the punchline? Oh, geez.

[Chick McGee]

I mean, it was.

[Josh Arnold]

Was it so awesome? It was so obvious.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you'd heard it before?

[Chick McGee]

No. Come on. He says a cocker spaniel, a poodle and a rooster. You don't immediately go cock a doodle do. Cocker poodle do. I understand that there are nuances there.

[Tom Griswold]

Jokes, nuances.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, I seriously, I like jokes that kids go total their teachers.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

I think that's nice.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, that's what.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know why we have to solve.

[Tom Griswold]

Would you like to do maybe a different setup?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, for the same punchline, though.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. What if you had the mad dogs in England Englishman tour? What with? They're doing a song. A Little Help from my Friends, and he steps in dog manure.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

What's on? What's on? Joe Cocker's.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Cocker Poodle Do. How about that? Is that.

[Chick McGee]

Sure. A little.

[Tom Griswold]

A little classic rock joke. Hey, that Eric Clapton on the guitar here. Okay. Jim Gordon's in the drums. Okay. Thank you very much. Right now, coming up, we have the Mariah Carey Christmas song, interestingly enough, is in the news.

[Christy Lee]

I haven't heard that enough. Yeah, well, it's a good song.

[Tom Griswold]

It may be maybe being of less interest to some, but my favorite thing coming up, you're gonna love Chick McGee because it involves radioactivity.

[Christy Lee]

Oh. Nuclear waste and things.

[Tom Griswold]

But in a very unusual place. Huh?

[Christy Lee]

All right. Is it up my ass?

[Chick McGee]

Well, it could be. I mean, and that would be burying the lead, really, if you didn't tell him immediately that he had radio that.

[Tom Griswold]

That would be burying the lead to prevent the radiation.

[Christy Lee]

Haven't told me yet. Is that what you.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, right now I want to say hi to my buddy Stephen Singer at Steven Singer Jewelers.

[Christy Lee]

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yay.

[Christy Lee]

Well, she was headed into. Now she's turned around.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait till she hears her new assignment. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Josh Arnold]

You met Lala Kent on Vanderpump Rules. Now Lala and her friends share everything on Give Them Lala Bagel. Everybody says I say that weird. It is ruined by a proposal story.

[Tom Griswold]

How Jason proposed and she was like.

[Josh Arnold]

He brought in a bunch of bagels.

[Tom Griswold]

I was like, I have to stop this.

[Josh Arnold]

I will punch you in the throat if you ever tell this story again.

[Christy Lee]

And call it a bagel.

[Tom Griswold]

Let me tell you now, when I.

[Josh Arnold]

Tell the story, I go, he went and got breakfast.

[Tom Griswold]

There you go.

[Josh Arnold]

Bagels.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Watch what Lala is talking about on YouTube or search for Give them Lala. Wherever you listen.

[Christy Lee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Or as I like to call it in my head, the Big Mess. Hello, Tom. How are you, buddy?

[Tom Griswold]

Doing okay? Sipping some tea over here. Doing just fine.

[Christy Lee]

Did you say you had something new for just Hooker to concoct for us, if you will.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, you want to get. Is she here?

[Christy Lee]

She's here.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, she is here.

[Tom Griswold]

Ms. Hooker. Oh, Ms. Hooker.

[Christy Lee]

Hang on, I'll get her.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, God.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, boy. She's not gonna like that.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I don't see her.

[Chick McGee]

She's coming.

[Josh Arnold]

Ptsd.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, now that's funny. Hey, Jess.

[Pat Godwin]

She is.

[Tom Griswold]

I saw her little eye roll and. Jess, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were even here. The larger point here is we talked about the song. The. It's called the Christmas Song.

[Unknown Speaker]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Which is ballsy, by the way, to. To name your song the Christmas Song, before it's even a hit.

[Chick McGee]

I know that. They nailed it.

[Pat Godwin]

Nailed it good, though.

[Josh Arnold]

We didn't know. I didn't know.

[Tom Griswold]

And Mel Tor was quite interested in balls.

[Josh Arnold]

Actually thought it was just chest roasting on an open fire.

[Christy Lee]

Wait a minute. What are you saying now? Mel Tor wrote the Alternate Lifestyle?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, of course. Yeah, Absolutely.

[Chick McGee]

It might be an assumption on his part.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, my gosh.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. There's a variation of his nickname.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, no, no.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, geez.

[Tom Griswold]

I know where you. Yeah, no, no, it's. It's. It's out there. Hi, Jess. How are you?

[Unknown Speaker]

I'm well. How are you?

[Tom Griswold]

Good. I know, I'm terrible. But the point is, that song begins. It begins with this. The phrase chestnuts, ropes. Roasting on an open fire.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And chestnuts appears online. I've never had a chestnut.

[Unknown Speaker]

I haven't. I did some research over the weekend after you gave me this assignment, and I ordered. There's chestnut tools. You have to. You have to make an X at the top before you roast them on an open fire so that they don't burst.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, okay.

[Unknown Speaker]

And then you usually serve them with butter and rosemary, like, dipped. All right, that's the plan.

[Chick McGee]

We're going to try them.

[Unknown Speaker]

Probably, if not late this week, early next week.

[Josh Arnold]

Are they in a shell? I mean, we have to shell like.

[Unknown Speaker]

I'm not going to make you shell your own nuts, Christie.

[Josh Arnold]

I'll do it for you.

[Tom Griswold]

What's it like showing your own nuts now that you're soloing?

[Christy Lee]

No, no, no, no, no. I haven't spent all these decades becoming Chick McGee to shell my own nuts, I can tell you that.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know what a chestnut looks like.

[Unknown Speaker]

It is. It's. It's. It's looks like a buckeye, kind of. Yeah, it does look like a buckeye.

[Tom Griswold]

But it's one of those things, like, for. I don't know what frankincense and myrrh are.

[Pat Godwin]

Gum, I think. And perfume or something like that.

[Josh Arnold]

They were gifts.

[Tom Griswold]

Chewing gum.

[Pat Godwin]

Like old times.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't want to give a little baby chewing gum.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

For the parents.

[Tom Griswold]

Jesus wouldn't have made it to 33 if they gave him Juicy Fruit.

[Christy Lee]

They were frankincense, myrrh, essential oils is what they are. Yeah. It was some sort of a coconut.

[Tom Griswold]

Leaf chewing tobacco, by the way. I'm so glad they called them frankincense and burnout essential oils. That sounds like. It sounds like. Well, Joseph drove up in a Range Rover after his Pilates lesson. He had. He took his essential oils.

[Josh Arnold]

These are on.

[Christy Lee]

I have to get a baby. I have to get a baby gift. Possibly some essential oils.

[Josh Arnold]

You guys. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Jess, I would like to shell.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm mocking my own life.

[Josh Arnold]

Of course.

[Tom Griswold]

I know.

[Chick McGee]

I want to shell my own chestnuts because I wanted the whole experience.

[Unknown Speaker]

Okay. Yeah. Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

You have to have a special tool for that.

[Tom Griswold]

But it is one of those things. No one really knows what it is.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah. So I'm gonna just do them on the grill. That seems to be the safest way. So we don't have an open fire on the porch now.

[Chick McGee]

Essentially. An open fire.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah. Right.

[Tom Griswold]

This is leading to this story. I think this is absolutely fascinating because I think I'm the only one in the room interested in science.

[Christy Lee]

We don't have a story. Yeah, you're. Yeah, you're a.

[Josh Arnold]

Are you talking about the toy?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's a great.

[Josh Arnold]

But no, no, we're gonna say Christmas. We're sticking with our Christmas.

[Chick McGee]

This is something about St. Steak.

[Josh Arnold]

Steak.

[Tom Griswold]

This is the food source of ancient humans in what is now called North America.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. It's mammoth in Alberger. Mammoth steak.

[Christy Lee]

Woolly mammoth.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Researchers used stable isotope analysis to model the diet of the mother of an infant discovered at a 13,000 year old Clovis burial site in Montana.

[Christy Lee]

Don't give the baby woolly mammoth.

[Tom Griswold]

First of all, I love the fact that they think we have any idea what state a stable isotope analysis is?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, I'm sure.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sure it's important to have it in there, but. Yeah, I have no idea.

[Christy Lee]

You don't know what Si. Sia is? Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Boy, that's embarrassing.

[Tom Griswold]

Really.

[Josh Arnold]

They found that about 40% of her diet came from mammoth with other large animals like elk and bison making up the rest. See how important protein is for you? Some people, small mammals played a very minor role in her diet. These findings support the hypothesis that the ancient Clovis people specialized in hunting large animals rather than primarily foraging for smaller animals and plants.

[Tom Griswold]

That's because if grog goes out there. Well, I caught three chipmunks. Oh, really? Lloyd got a mammoth reading for a month.

[Christy Lee]

Isn't Clovis a southern name?

[Pat Godwin]

Cletus. Clovis.

[Chick McGee]

Clovis.

[Christy Lee]

Clovis and Cletus and Larry.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

They all pronounced Clitus City boys.

[Christy Lee]

That's our sister. Clis.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Mama Labia.

[Tom Griswold]

Well played. These are the pink hoodie. So, I mean, this is fascinating.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

How'd they bring down a mammoth?

[Chick McGee]

Spears and stuff.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Maybe I trapped. Maybe they drove them over cliffs or something.

[Chick McGee]

Very obvious.

[Christy Lee]

Drove them. Yeah. Well, then they have to go down the cliff.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

And then they have to drag it back.

[Tom Griswold]

They know that they can go around the long way. I'm just. I don't know.

[Unknown Speaker]

I'm guessing a woolly mammoth as big as an elephant.

[Chick McGee]

You think?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I'm going to say bigger.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. They may have been a little bigger.

[Tom Griswold]

Didn't they? And there's a guy right now trying to more or less recreate them.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Jurassic park style. So my point is, I think, Pat, maybe we can resurrect Loon Lake Lodge. Oh, I love serve woolly mammoth. Our late great restaurant that had all kinds of elk and deer and all.

[Josh Arnold]

Kinds of great mammoth. Like elephants.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

So we don't eat elephants.

[Chick McGee]

No. Because we have other things we can eat. This was what was available. This is essentially a story. People ate what they. What was available to them, what they could catch. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And one thing is nothing. I didn't give you the whole story. You know that rednecks. Redneck and like hillbilly caveman.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

They'd overcook it.

[Chick McGee]

Is there a joke there?

[Unknown Speaker]

Yes. I don't get that hillbillies like things well done. They don't order medium or rare.

[Chick McGee]

How is this ever.

[Unknown Speaker]

I don't. I love it when he tries to talk white trash.

[Chick McGee]

That's a stereotype.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I guess know that.

[Christy Lee]

I've never heard.

[Chick McGee]

Of course not.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Unknown Speaker]

Ace eats everything. Well done. That doesn't apply.

[Tom Griswold]

Ace is a rare black hill.

[Chick McGee]

Rare black Ace is black trash. You never hear black trash.

[Unknown Speaker]

Never.

[Christy Lee]

You know, they.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, boy.

[Pat Godwin]

For a reason.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a tv. There's a TV show.

[Josh Arnold]

They've never done black trash.

[Tom Griswold]

Black hillbillies.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, I don't want to do this.

[Pat Godwin]

So nervous.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Pat Godwin]

Right after Mel Tor.

[Unknown Speaker]

Hey, I see you have a song about a woolly mammoth on your.

[Pat Godwin]

One Two Susie Quattro. Oh, you better stop messing in the lab after dark. Be the DNA Lord. Remember Jurassic Park. Wooly mammoth, everybody. Woolly mammoth. Oh, yeah. Come on now. Come on. The woolly mammoth. Woolly mammoth.

[Tom Griswold]

Woolly mammoth.

[Pat Godwin]

Okay, we're on track now. The light, Newman.

[Christy Lee]

Huh?

[Pat Godwin]

But not Sam Neil. Jurassic Park Sam Neil Wasn't tasty Had no T. Rex or peel wool Sing it for me now.

[Chick McGee]

Come on.

[Christy Lee]

Watch me now. Watch me.

[Tom Griswold]

Here comes, here comes, here comes they.

[Chick McGee]

Call me the velvet.

[Josh Arnold]

So now you're gonna. You're gonna ask just to make us wooly mammoth? Is that what you're asking?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. Now it's gonna be a while. It's gonna be. If this guy recreates woolly mammoth.

[Christy Lee]

Now I don't even think we can get elephant meat.

[Tom Griswold]

You know the premise of. The premise of the movie the Freshman. Yeah, great movie. Where there's this whole dinner involving endangered species. People are eating them.

[Unknown Speaker]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Do people ever eat elephants? Elephant.

[Josh Arnold]

I. That's my question.

[Unknown Speaker]

I bet they do. You know, I mean if that's. Maybe different tribes eat elephant.

[Chick McGee]

Maybe.

[Christy Lee]

Let's not say the word tribe.

[Chick McGee]

If they. I bet if they came across one that was dead. I don't. I can't imagine that they're killing.

[Tom Griswold]

I think there's a place in Kenya where if you eat the whole thing, they put your picture on the wall.

[Chick McGee]

That's really. Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Popular place.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Pat Godwin]

Not many people have done it.

[Tom Griswold]

Didn't you try that once?

[Chick McGee]

No, I never tried one of those Giant steak eating.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, I'm not. Who's the comedian? I'm sorry.

[Unknown Speaker]

Like the great outdoors.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

He thinks I did the old 96 or whatever the hell.

[Tom Griswold]

There was some comedian that.

[Chick McGee]

No kidding.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sorry, I thought it was you. I didn't mean.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, here's your directions for an elephant stew. Are you ready?

[Chick McGee]

Where does this. What is this?

[Josh Arnold]

Now you can eat there. Apparently species of elephant are hunted specifically for their meat.

[Christy Lee]

Elephant Elephant stew recipe directions. Cut the elephant into bite sized pieces. Number two. This takes about two months.

[Tom Griswold]

But they're not going to give you the story because all these recipes usually start with the story. Well, my grandma used to always make elephant.

[Christy Lee]

Use large kettles. Simmer equal parts. Cook for a couple days if you need. If more people are coming for dinner, add rabbits. But only do this if you need.

[Josh Arnold]

You don't have enough elephant meat.

[Unknown Speaker]

Cut with rabbit.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

And 500 pounds of assorted fresh vegetables.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, God. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What.

[Unknown Speaker]

What are you reading?

[Josh Arnold]

Elephant has been eaten since prehistoric Times. And it's still eaten in Cameroon. Central African Republican.

[Christy Lee]

What does that say of elephant stew?

[Unknown Speaker]

Is that a picture of Snoop Dogg?

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Unknown Speaker]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

All right. So woolly mammoth probably tastes a lot like elephant, I would think. Although I remember my mom used to say we'd be eating chicken. She'd go, chicken doesn't taste like it used to taste when she was a kid.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, that's the way Alzheimer's manifested back then.

[Chick McGee]

Well, they do say you're. We have, like, new tongues every five or seven years or something.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Things.

[Christy Lee]

And your taste buds, however you are. Right.

[Chick McGee]

But I think his point is that it's chickens. Probably a little more processed. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

But. But I wonder if bananas do not taste as good as the original bananas we had before. Like, before, like the 50s.

[Josh Arnold]

No, I agree.

[Tom Griswold]

Is there any way to quantify that? Is there any, like, scientist, scientific thing?

[Christy Lee]

Bananas used to taste like the cream in banana flip pastries or whatever those are. That's. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

A little.

[Tom Griswold]

Little more on the banana.

[Christy Lee]

A little richer flavor.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Well, I just want to thank Pat for bringing back my love for Sam the Sham and the Pharos.

[Pat Godwin]

Well, he's terrific. Good stuff. Crazy stuff.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. That's a. That is such a great song.

[Chick McGee]

That is a great song.

[Tom Griswold]

The original Woolly Bully, if you're not familiar with. I highly recommend it. Now we can. Anyways, Jess, thank you for sitting in. You're more than welcome to stay for a few minutes.

[Unknown Speaker]

Okay. I'll hang out with you.

[Tom Griswold]

I am really looking forward to the chestnuts.

[Unknown Speaker]

I am, too. Actually. I'm excited to try it. And I like. I make chestnut dressing at Christmas and at Thanksgiving, so that's the only way I've had them is when they're already prepared already. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So you buy them.

[Unknown Speaker]

You buy them. They're already blanched. No. Yeah, they're. They're cracked. They're open. It's the middle. It's just the nut. And they've already been soaked, so they have a very. They have a dense. I don't know how to check it. Yeah. Imagine if you. If you soaked a nut and it absorbed the water.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah. You got to soak that nut.

[Chick McGee]

They clean it a little bit.

[Christy Lee]

Hey, Josh, what would you have if you had a nut on your chest?

[Chick McGee]

I'd have a chestnut.

[Christy Lee]

And what would you have if you had a nut on the wall?

[Chick McGee]

A walnut.

[Christy Lee]

What would you have if you had a nut on your chin?

[Tom Griswold]

Boyfriend.

[Chick McGee]

I like the clean version.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Nicely done.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. What are the things? So, water chestnuts. Those Things in Chinese food. They're. Every time I have one, I go, why don't I have these in salad every day? They're so good.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Unknown Speaker]

I love the crunch.

[Tom Griswold]

Those have nothing to do with chestnuts, right? Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

No, they're not nuts at all.

[Unknown Speaker]

No, no, they're. Yeah, I think they're a vegetable. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. So I've. We've got. I'm really looking forward to finally finding out what chestnuts are, you know, another.

[Chick McGee]

Christmas treat I've never had.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Figgy pudding.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, okay.

[Pat Godwin]

What is that?

[Chick McGee]

Anybody ever had figgy pudding?

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Unknown Speaker]

I would like to, though. I love Fig Newtons.

[Josh Arnold]

Is it figs? Figgy pudding?

[Chick McGee]

One would assume, but I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

For sure from the name.

[Christy Lee]

I had fresh figs for one Christmas, one time. Fresh figs.

[Tom Griswold]

They're great.

[Christy Lee]

So good. Fabulous.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You ever see the. Ever see them. Ever see the movie version of D.H. lawrence, Women in Love?

[Chick McGee]

No, I haven't.

[Tom Griswold]

The fig scene.

[Christy Lee]

No, because I said no.

[Chick McGee]

And he goes, you know the fig scene.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, he does.

[Tom Griswold]

I was. I was talking to the more elite of the audience.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, my God.

[Tom Griswold]

Exposed to pure cinema. No, it's a. It's a rather sexual. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Ah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oliver Reed. And who was it? Alan Bates. It's a great scene. Now, what's coming up, Christy Lee?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, gee, I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

Everything's coming up Christy.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, hey, did you know that Merriam Webster has announced the 2024 Word of the year?

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

It's got to be better than the dumb one last week.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't think you're gonna like it.

[Chick McGee]

Oxford announced theirs. You remember what the Oxford word of the year was?

[Josh Arnold]

Brain rot.

[Chick McGee]

That is correct.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You guys aren't necessarily those of rotten brains.

[Tom Griswold]

Shouldn't. Shouldn't the word of the year be something you've heard?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you've heard this one. Polarization.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, okay.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, that's some very, very cold.

[Tom Griswold]

No, extreme cold.

[Josh Arnold]

Refrigerators used to be called polarizing, originating in the 1800s. The word is now, where's my beer at?

[Tom Griswold]

Most commonly used for sunglasses.

[Josh Arnold]

Commonly used.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And if here's a little. Here's a little upscale trip tip for you. If you've got one of those gizmos that shows your speedometer on the windshield.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, sir.

[Tom Griswold]

If you have Polaroid sunglasses on, you can't read it.

[Christy Lee]

You can, but you got to tilt your head a little bit. Yeah, but. And not very.

[Tom Griswold]

By the time you tilt your head, you're getting a ticket.

[Chick McGee]

It's a hard knock. Life Isn't it?

[Tom Griswold]

It's rough. It's rough out there.

[Josh Arnold]

Pulling polarization means division.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, really.

[Josh Arnold]

And of course, causing. And now it's used to cause. It's causing strong disagreement between opposing facts.

[Tom Griswold]

I disagree with them. That's how polarizing this selection is.

[Christy Lee]

Why can't we all be together?

[Tom Griswold]

It's quiz time for the lady. Did you not get enough sleep?

[Unknown Speaker]

Thank you. I. I feel like I look okay today.

[Tom Griswold]

No, you're.

[Pat Godwin]

God, she got yelled at.

[Jess Hooker]

No, you're.

[Tom Griswold]

You're. You're resting your little head.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, I'm just taking in the show. You guys are doing a great job.

[Tom Griswold]

So it's. It's.

[Christy Lee]

What do you expect us to do when you talk at us? What. What would be the reception that you would like?

[Tom Griswold]

Respect.

[Unknown Speaker]

Okay, I'm listening.

[Chick McGee]

Would you say a respectful silence is what you would like in return?

[Tom Griswold]

That's what I've been getting most of the morning. I will ask you this question. This has something to do with Omaha steaks.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, I love.

[Tom Griswold]

Love those. But do you know what? No, but is. This is not a cooking thing. Okay. Ready? Okay.

[Christy Lee]

So wrong.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you know what a motor grader is?

[Unknown Speaker]

A motor grader?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. It's. It's something that one drives.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah. I assume it has something to do with concrete and asphalt and. I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

I think you're on the right track. It grades the land.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Before they cement it.

[Josh Arnold]

So it's a grader with a D, not a T. Exactly.

[Chick McGee]

Exactly.

[Tom Griswold]

Because we got a really nice letter.

[Josh Arnold]

I thought it was a great her.

[Tom Griswold]

We got a great letter from Mike in South Carolina.

[Christy Lee]

Hey, Mike.

[Tom Griswold]

He drives a motor grader, but he just. This is a great story. He connected with his birth mom. He was adopted 56 years ago. And among other things, as part of the kind of getting to meet her, he sent her a box of Omaha steaks and he said how great it was. And he. This is a way for me to segue over to John, who's going to read the commercial without any further interruption from me. Let's see.

[Pat Godwin]

Let's see what happens. Sit back and enjoy.

[Chick McGee]

Excuse me. Nothing delivers comfort and joy quite like the unrivaled quality and taste of Omaha steaks. Our friend who wrote in knows it. You know it, we all know it. What are you waiting for?

Actually, I really liked the. Of course, the jumbo franks and the chicken. I did not. I did not eat the steak that morning. I ate the chicken.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that air chilled rather delicious. Chicken breast is just so wonderful. I see you got one. It's really, really good.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat couldn't eat anything because he's a vegan. We know, Pat.

[Pat Godwin]

It smelled delicious.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

I think the audience should vote whether or not you should stay vegan, and.

[Christy Lee]

You have to adhere to what they decide.

[Pat Godwin]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

Well, we'll see. I know that when the audience votes on what steak they want, it's always Omaha Steaks, legendary steaks, mouth watering desserts, and so much more.

[Tom Griswold]

Let's work on a jingle, Pat. Oh, what do you want? M a h a Omaha Steaks on Christmas Day? Chocolate. Wait a minute. That's farful.

[Christy Lee]

Steak and chocolate fondue. Oh, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, now we're talking. Speaking of fountains and fondue stuff, we got fountains in the news in a bizarre way. And also coming up, Mariah Carey's famous song Something's Happening with It. And one of my. This is, I think, my favorite story of the year for Chick McGee. It involves radioactivity. Radioactive. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Ace Cosby]

[Tom Griswold]

All new for you.

[Christy Lee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Oh, as you can tell, we're winding the ear down. Hello, Tom. How are you, buddy?

[Tom Griswold]

See this thing?

[Christy Lee]

That's a watch. Watch?

[Tom Griswold]

No, not the watch. My hand.

[Josh Arnold]

What about it?

[Christy Lee]

Sloppy dog bites.

[Tom Griswold]

I, I, I put a hanger inadvertently into my hand a couple days ago, like five days ago, and it was really bleeding. Bad memory. I had to wear a bandage.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I wondered what you were doing.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Clothes hanger.

[Christy Lee]

Are you cutting yourself?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's right. In any event, the point of this exercise is I went to the store and I bought a bunch of different bandages, but then I bought this skin. Instant bandaid stuff.

[Josh Arnold]

Sure. Yeah, liquid skin.

[Tom Griswold]

Liquid skin. Whatever. But it's purple. Yeah. So it looks like I've got bruises.

[Unknown Speaker]

I thought those are bruises.

[Tom Griswold]

Looks like a horrific bruise. No, it's the purple. Purple.

[Chick McGee]

No kidding. Those aren't bruises.

[Tom Griswold]

And I'm, I'm wondering if this is because they used to do sort of what might be considered.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, God.

[Tom Griswold]

Anglo Saintone. I don't know what the.

[Chick McGee]

You think clear would be fine for everything?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, exactly. Because there's. I know there's one company that makes it clear. I didn't notice it, but I put it on now it looks like I've just beaten my.

[Chick McGee]

It looks like. Got an IV or something in your hand?

[Unknown Speaker]

It really does. I bought the band aids for here that are all different shapes, shades.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, no kidding.

[Unknown Speaker]

Of tan. Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And why'd we have to get those?

[Christy Lee]

And didn't they. And didn't they stop making that crayon? Crayola crayon. They don't call it flesh.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that. They bailed on that.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

No, they have, wisely. 50, 60 years ago, all kinds of.

[Josh Arnold]

Stuff, you can name it.

[Chick McGee]

Anything else?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, when you have racist crayon sets, that's.

[Chick McGee]

They weren't trying to be racist. They're just happy.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Speaking of kids toys.

[Chick McGee]

Like what?

[Josh Arnold]

Cause we were talking about Crane.

[Tom Griswold]

This is the story that chick is gonna love.

[Josh Arnold]

A radioactive children's toy, dubbed the most dangerous toy in history is going up for auction.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, is this the mini reactor?

[Josh Arnold]

The Gilbert U238 Atomic Energy Laboratory?

[Christy Lee]

Yep, that's it.

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it was released in 1950.

[Christy Lee]

I wanted one of these so much.

[Josh Arnold]

It contains samples of uranium ores, real samples. Along with a Geiger Mueller radiation counter.

[Chick McGee]

Unbelievable.

[Josh Arnold]

And several other tools.

[Tom Griswold]

There you go.

[Christy Lee]

There it is.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's a Geiger counter.

[Christy Lee]

That's right.

[Josh Arnold]

I thought that was Chick doing it.

[Chick McGee]

I thought so too. I was like, we have a Michael Winston.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, this is.

[Josh Arnold]

The kits or samples include autonite, tobernight, uraniumite and carnonite and a troglodyte.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I mean, presumably the. I mean, I don't know much about this, but I imagine whatever those radioactive substances, are they in some kind of lead lined box?

[Josh Arnold]

I have no idea.

[Christy Lee]

But not at the time.

[Chick McGee]

No way.

[Josh Arnold]

Boston based RR auction is selling one of the vintage toys. With the auction scheduled to end on December 11th. Chick, you have a couple more days.

[Christy Lee]

How are they selling? They must be.

[Josh Arnold]

Has the uranium in it.

[Christy Lee]

It must be. Either the uranium's missing, which is the only reason to buy it, or if.

[Tom Griswold]

You want to bid on this, sir, you have to raise all three of your hands.

[Christy Lee]

It has to. It must be in some sort of protection.

[Chick McGee]

Now I know a lot about this kind of. I've studied a lot about this, these sort of.

[Unknown Speaker]

Right, right elements.

[Chick McGee]

And from what I understand, uranium stops like it goes dead after what, two or three years?

[Tom Griswold]

No, no.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, it's only good for like half expires.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Right around 100,000 years. Years.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, you're not gonna, you're not gonna believe this one. We had a story a few years back about a different auction of a different radioactive thing. I don't know if you remember this. It was. Had a short life, but it was in shoe stores.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And you would stand on it and you could see your bones in the shoes.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, wow.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Unknown Speaker]

And that's like an X ray or not.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, but no, it was an X ray machine.

[Tom Griswold]

But live as it happened, happened.

[Unknown Speaker]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Which was super cool. Except of course, you were irradiating people. I mean, and I'm sure the, the shoe sales people that use that thing. I bet very few of them are still with us. Yikes. Check.

[Josh Arnold]

The current bid for this item is $4,400.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, you could beat that.

[Josh Arnold]

The next bid, $4,840, if you'd like to bid.

[Christy Lee]

I'm going five grand.

[Chick McGee]

No, this should be given to you.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. Now we're talking.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, it's in its original suitcase. I'm trying to find out if it's still radio.

[Chick McGee]

I told you, all that stuff goes bad after two or three years.

[Tom Griswold]

Does it come with the Lego Chernobyl set. Perfect.

[Christy Lee]

Called the U238. What is it? What's it called?

[Josh Arnold]

It's called The Gilbert. Gilbert U230 Atomic Energy Laboratory. According to this, it looks as if they do still have the uranium ore inside the kit.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Maybe it's an unopened kit.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, yeah, maybe.

[Tom Griswold]

But I mean, it would have to have some kind of. I would assume.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, wait a minute. Here we go. Here. We regret exceeding. We regret exceedingly to advise you that we have discontinued manufacturing the laboratory. It was very difficult to obtain some of the materials and also due to government restrictions.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, of course. I mean, that's.

[Josh Arnold]

It's in very good condition. With some scuffing on the case, though. There it is.

[Chick McGee]

Amazing.

[Josh Arnold]

Really cool.

[Christy Lee]

How cool is that?

[Josh Arnold]

Fewer than 5, 000 total sets ever sold. Performed extremely rare.

[Christy Lee]

Over 150 exciting experiments.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

The most modern scientific set ever created.

[Tom Griswold]

Man city model of Nagasaki not included.

[Christy Lee]

See paths. This is what kills you, Tom, so pay attention. See the paths of alpha particles speeding at 12, 500 miles per hour.

[Chick McGee]

Insane.

[Christy Lee]

That's what cut your body up.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, my gosh.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, well, well.

[Christy Lee]

And there's a Gilbert cloud chamber.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, there is.

[Christy Lee]

This might. I might. Five grand.

[Josh Arnold]

The cloud chamber allows you to watch alpha particles traveling at 12,000 miles per second. Chick.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, sir. Yeah, yeah, I'm in there.

[Chick McGee]

They should be gifted to you. They should know better. Yes, you've always wanted one.

[Christy Lee]

Gilbert put a lot of cool stuff out back then.

[Tom Griswold]

Science kids.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You remember probably the name Gilbert, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, we had. We had the.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm very familiar with.

[Tom Griswold]

We had the chemistry set.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And you could do some pretty cool stuff.

[Josh Arnold]

He did the erector set.

[Tom Griswold]

I had enough. I love my erector set.

[Christy Lee]

Well, that was to help you with erections.

[Chick McGee]

That's right. Just duct tape some of those pieces.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, you just.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's gonna be.

[Unknown Speaker]

Your wiener was interactive.

[Tom Griswold]

Mike chafe.

[Christy Lee]

Cuz look, you were playing with it anyway, so.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Here's a Paul Rogers.

[Unknown Speaker]

Ladies, gentlemen.

[Tom Griswold]

Very nice song. Remember that band, Ace?

[Christy Lee]

The Firm.

[Tom Griswold]

The Firm, that's right.

[Unknown Speaker]

When you did Radioactive earlier, this is.

[Chick McGee]

What you were referencing, not the Imagine Dragon song.

[Unknown Speaker]

That's exactly what I thought.

[Chick McGee]

Billions have heard.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I think you've got Jimmy Page and Paul Rogers to master in the world of rock and roll. But I'm sorry, what was the name of the band?

[Unknown Speaker]

Imagine Dragon.

[Josh Arnold]

Dragons are huge.

[Unknown Speaker]

No, the song that we're referencing, everyone knows.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, then they haven't been educated, have they now? They learned something else. They've learned about radio.

[Christy Lee]

They've learned a lot this morning.

[Tom Griswold]

[Christy Lee]

Hey, there's pat godwin.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, chick mcgee.

[Christy Lee]

There's josh arnold at the I hate steven singer sidekick chair.

[Chick McGee]

Hi there.

[Christy Lee]

There's Jess hooker. Hi, there's ace cosby. Another successful joke of the day from ace. I'm chick mcgee at the dude wipe sports desk. Hello, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, chick mcgee. A couple quick things. We're going to hook up with Reno collier in a matter of seconds. I will remind you that it is out there. We're getting letters about it. Can you get the Ed Septic T shirts? The Ed Septic T shirts now available at Bob and Tom.com. i understand.

[Josh Arnold]

They sure are.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Josh Arnold]

Going quick.

[Jess Hooker]

Get one.

[Tom Griswold]

Speaking of things you can get, you can also get a book from the. Oh, there he is on the big screen. I can see him right now. The man, the lamp. The book is called country fried takes from Reno collier. Not a real. Not a real hefty tome, as they say, but something light and fun with your witness.

[Jess Hooker]

You can put it on the back of your toilet and people can read it while they, you know, go to the bathroom or do whatever. It's got recipes. I'm getting a lot of good. They're selling like crazy, man. I'm getting a bunch of cool comments and I appreciate everyone who's bought it. And if you do, we need the last minute one. It'll be there in time for Christmas.

[Tom Griswold]

All right. Well, thank you. Thank you, Reno.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes, sir.

[Tom Griswold]

It has the country fried take. Reno. We were just talking about something odd. It was kind of like an x ray machine. There were several thousand of them in the United States, but you'd go to a shoe store, you'd stand in this thing and it was called a fluoroscope. So it was like an x ray as it happened. Then the shoe salesman would look at it and say, okay, you can see the bones of the feet are a little too close to the edge of the shoe. Got to get them a bigger shoe. Of course, they were irradiating their clientele, and they have since. They have since been discontinued. I'm a little too. I didn't. I missed that phase. They were phased out fairly dramatically, I think, in the 50s. But what a. What a great scam.

[Josh Arnold]

Wouldn't you like to be Atomic Energy Labs?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Along with the other toy that we just had that was. You could get your kids irradiated with, but trying to be cutting, cutting. So now you've. Do you have anything coming up? Are you gonna be hitting the road before Christmas?

[Jess Hooker]

I am, yeah. But it's like I'm doing a corporate thing for John Deere, and I'm doing a corporate show for this mechanics association. I'm doing. It's all corporate stuff. I'm not going to any clubs or anything till after the first of the year.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, so.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, but still plugging along, man. I actually. I wrote a country fried take for today, if you'd like to hear it.

[Tom Griswold]

For the holiday season. This one is not in the book.

[Jess Hooker]

This one's not in the book. No, sir. There are. There's a Christmas one in there, but not this one. It's from last year, but there.

[Tom Griswold]

So what we're saying is sequels on the way.

[Jess Hooker]

Sequels on the way, baby. I've sold out. I thought I'd have to do one order. I'm on the third order.

[Chick McGee]

Great. That's wonderful. Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Now I only get three of them at a time, but it's really going.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah, that's great. Okay, good.

[Jess Hooker]

No, it's good, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, what you got? Go ahead. Ahead.

[Jess Hooker]

Here we go. So every Christmas, I like to give a shout out to the unsung heroes of the holiday season. This year, I'd like to send some love to just the grandparents. The problems they dealt with around the holidays as kids were things like, can our family afford presents this year? Will the troops be home in time for Christmas? Or can our family afford to travel to come see us at home? Now they finally made it to the point where they can watch their family all get together and on a fixed income, try to provide a holiday to remember. Their memories of Christmas past are people drinking, eating, and laughing, making the most of what they had. But the way people act now, it's damn near impossible to recreate that. I remember as a kid, my grandpa always pulled the turkey neck out of the cavity and would run around acting like it was his wiener.

[Tom Griswold]

Ah, the classics you know what I mean?

[Jess Hooker]

You do that now and there's no telling what someone's problem would be with that.

[Tom Griswold]

Please don't.

[Jess Hooker]

Now, please don't joke around about playing with that. Jim is 12 stepping through a porn addiction.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Jess Hooker]

I thought he had a nut allergy. Well, that's how they refer to it in his program. And people always go to the grandparents and tell them what not to bring up at the table. Grandpa, don't talk about politics. Sharon has PTSD from the election. Presidential? No. School board. She lost big time. She wanted to burn the entire fiction section of the elementary school library. And I guess she's right. None of those books are true. And just some advice. If you have a grandparent that has ever fought overseas, don't use phrases like PTSD for dumb stuff. You know what I mean? People use it all the time. I've got veterans in my family and what they went through is a little different than just getting misgendered at Starbucks. And let me tell you something else about veterans. If you push them far enough and piss them off, they'll start telling their favorite stories at the dinner table. And I promise you, nobody who hears them will ever look at donkeys and ping pong balls the same way. And grandparents look at their childhood holidays being thankful that their parents could afford a ham or maybe a pie. Now they have to listen to a 45 minute tutorial on why Skylar can't eat gluten or any food that ever had a face. Any food that had a face. Grandparents weren't fed anything growing up that didn't have an ass. And grandparents generation came to the table where everyone was dressed respectfully. Now they have to look across the table at some little brat sucking on a binky in his pajamas, wearing high heels. And the kid's parents are like, we're giving him time to figure it out on his own. His own. He's 32 years old. The only thing Christmassy about his outfit is that those high heels used to be carols. Now poor grandpa's thinking, ah, shooting. I gotta take his gift back. He asked me for a blow up doll, so I got him a GI Joe and some firecrackers. So when your family gets together, think about what you can do to help. The grandparents enjoy the hell out of themselves. They deserve it. They've earned it. And Christmas is supposed to be about peace, love and giving. It's the wrong time to be selfish. And if you are a grandparent, it's okay to give your family a big holiday kiss. My Ass. They'll get over it. I'm Reno Collier and that's my Country Fried take.

[Tom Griswold]

And what grandparent wouldn't want a copy of Reno's book?

[Jess Hooker]

Country Fried takes grandparents are my demographic babies.

[Tom Griswold]

Alright, how does one get a copy of your new book?

[Jess Hooker]

You can go to renocallyourcomedy.com and place your order and they'll go out. We just got the fourth shipment in. Or it's coming in today. But I go down, I sign each one of them. Them and the publishing guys fire them out right away. So we're rolling, man.

[Tom Griswold]

All right. All right. Good for you.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, sir, it's fun.

[Jess Hooker]

And thank you guys for giving me the opportunity to do it.

[Chick McGee]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

You're very well. I appreciate it. Do you have a gift for your wife yet?

[Jess Hooker]

No. Do you guys? Have you done that already?

[Chick McGee]

Roof over her head? I'm pretty good. I'm about halfway done with a little.

[Tom Griswold]

More than for your whole family.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, a little more than halfway done.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I got all wrapped yesterday. Okay, done.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, Chris, I know one thing. They're getting a copy of Country Fried.

[Tom Griswold]

Signed by the author.

[Jess Hooker]

Signed by the author.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

So now do you have any ideas for your wife?

[Jess Hooker]

Well, we're kind of practical. Like, we need a new rug. So we were like, look, let's just. Just get each other the rug and spend the money on the kids and the.

[Christy Lee]

Tom, you wanna. You wanna take this one? Tom?

[Tom Griswold]

Just because they say that Reno.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You still gotta get. You can't.

[Jess Hooker]

I know, dude, I know, but because I know she does this every year. And then she'll hit me with something like, oh, well, I just thought. And then there's that look, like, I guess I'm a better person than you.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what I mean? That's the one where the kids go, hey, dad, what'd you get for mom? And you can't go. Well, oh, well, we got a rug that's upstairs in the bathroom. That's not gonna cut it. I know.

[Jess Hooker]

Our anniversary is on the 23rd too. No, dude, perfectly planned. I'll never forget it.

[Josh Arnold]

Christmas wedding. What were you thinking?

[Jess Hooker]

Well, the 23rd, I was kind of thinking everyone would be at our house when we got married anyway.

[Josh Arnold]

Sure.

[Jess Hooker]

So it'd be one trip and nobody'd have to pay to fly in or anything like that. They'd all be there. And I'll never forget December 23rd.

[Josh Arnold]

True.

[Jess Hooker]

You know, I mean, it's kind of so.

[Tom Griswold]

So wait a second. But you forgot to get her a gift for her anniversary.

[Jess Hooker]

No, I, I, I'm, that's part of.

[Josh Arnold]

The R. No, wait, wait.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no.

[Chick McGee]

You're doing everything right. Reno.

[Tom Griswold]

Reno, sell some books today and get, get to my buddy Stephen Singer.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And then while you're at it, get yourself some Omaha steaks and, and everything else we advertise. Make Christmas dinner and then you can clean yourself. You're gonna need the dude wipes for the wounds. Okay? Reno, it's always a pleasure.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Jess Hooker]

Love you guys. Hey, Merry Christmas, everybody. I hope everybody has a safe holiday.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, you too.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you. Thank you.

[Jess Hooker]

Thanks, guys.

[Tom Griswold]

Reno now. Coming up, Christie, what have you got over there?

[Josh Arnold]

Coming up, we'll continue with our Christmas hunk. We have Mariah Carey's famous Christmas song, all I want for Christmas is you in the news. Gingerbread houses, Christmas parade gone awry, and shop with a cop. Didn't go as planned. We'll talk about that.

[Chick McGee]

That's a great program.

[Josh Arnold]

When it goes well.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Right now, the Bob and Tom show is sponsored by Better Help. Want to stay cozy, of course, the holiday season, wrap yourself up, maybe a little hot chocolate, a blanket, and watch a nice movie on the tv. Yeah, all that stuff.

[Christy Lee]

That sounds really good.

[Tom Griswold]

But something also you want to do is get yourself feeling good about being you. This is where therapy comes in, and this is where better help comes in. It's been a rough couple years for, I think everybody out there. And seeking therapy is not a sign of weakness. It's actually a sign of strength. And BetterHelp is all about accessing therapy in a much more convenient manner and flexible manner because the therapy is done online. There are some 35,000 plus therapists participating in this program. And the way it works is you fill out a questionnaire, you'll be matched with one of those therapists. You can switch therapists, by the way, anytime, no additional charge. And then the therapy is done online. So you can do it like you're talking on the phone or like you're doing a zoom call or even just texting back and forth. It's up to you.

BetterHelp. H E L P betterhelp.com BTShow the/BT Showpart will knock 10% off your first month. That's betterhelp.com BTShow thanks very much. And coming up, as Christy said, we have a bunch of Christmasy stuff, so we'll get in this Christmas spirit when we return. Maybe a song out of Patty G. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Christy Lee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Christy and Josh and Pat Nace. Jess. I'm Chick. Hello, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Chick.

[Christy Lee]

Look at Pat. He's acting like he's playing the harmonica. It's pretty good.

[Pat Godwin]

I wish I could.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Unknown Speaker]

You can't play the harmonica.

[Pat Godwin]

Not that well. Not like Tad.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

This is nice. Now, we are going to get a song out of Pat in just a few minutes. I understand. First, Christie has her Christmas hunk.

[Josh Arnold]

Recent data shows that listenership of Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas is you is slipping, which is interesting. We were just talking on the break about our holiday playlist.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

According to data from the music tracking site Last FM, Ms. Carey's classic has begun to retreat, with listenership declining 35% from October 2023 to October 2024 and declining over.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe it's because they're doing it in.

[Josh Arnold]

October from November 2023 to November 2024.

[Tom Griswold]

You know my rule.

[Christy Lee]

What's your role?

[Josh Arnold]

No Christmas music till after Thanksgiving. Ms. Carey wrote the song in 1994 when she was just 22.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a great song she wrote in.

[Josh Arnold]

Her memoir, the Meaning of Mariah Carey.

[Chick McGee]

Can you watch?

[Josh Arnold]

Can you imagine reading that? Oh, my God.

[Chick McGee]

Unless there are pictures. Me to Jack it, too.

[Josh Arnold]

The releasing the album was considered a risk. You didn't see Christmas videos on. On MTV back then.

[Chick McGee]

Mariah Carey's one of those women, I think, who's gotten better looking.

[Unknown Speaker]

Really?

[Chick McGee]

I think she's just a knockout.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah. I think she's always been gorgeous.

[Chick McGee]

She has.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But I mean, it's a great song.

[Chick McGee]

It is. I agree.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Unknown Speaker]

Love it.

[Tom Griswold]

It's one of the. Of the recent songs. Which ones have stuck?

[Chick McGee]

I mean, that one. Really?

[Unknown Speaker]

That one. And Kelly Clarkson, she has a Christmas song that's in the rotation right now. That's in the last five or six.

[Tom Griswold]

What's in your. Do you have your little Christmas.

[Unknown Speaker]

I do have my list.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you have. Oh, my.

[Unknown Speaker]

Go to. Actually, my favorite, though, is always Christmas wrapping by the waitresses.

[Chick McGee]

I like it, too.

[Unknown Speaker]

I do, too. I like it. Last Christmas by Wham. Right?

[Tom Griswold]

That's a great song.

[Chick McGee]

I gave her my butt last Christmas.

[Unknown Speaker]

Santa Claus is coming to town By Bruce Springsteen.

[Christy Lee]

Except my lifestyle.

[Unknown Speaker]

Wonderful Christmas time by Paul McCartney.

[Chick McGee]

Awful. Awful.

[Tom Griswold]

You guys really hate it.

[Christy Lee]

It makes Josh violent.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I. I would rather listen to that 50 times than have to listen to that John Lennon. Happy Christmas. War is over, turd.

[Chick McGee]

Happy Christmas is very good.

[Unknown Speaker]

I like that.

[Tom Griswold]

I hate that.

[Unknown Speaker]

I always heard Wonderful Christmas Time was actually like they were doing a seance and then they get caught. Like somebody walks in and they're like, pretend like we're doing something. Chris Christmas. Like.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Unknown Speaker]

If you read the lyrics, it's really weird. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a sweet, happy song.

[Chick McGee]

What about grading? It's grating.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah. What about Please Come Home for Christmas by the Eagles?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know if I know it.

[Unknown Speaker]

Okay. Someday at Christmas by Stevie Wonder.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, I like it.

[Unknown Speaker]

Okay. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

The Eagles. One star. The bells will be ringing.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, sure. That is good. Yeah, That's a.

[Tom Griswold]

That's an old soul tune, right, that they redone.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah's voice is killer on that.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Thank you. That is a good one.

[Unknown Speaker]

Step Into Christmas by Elton John.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, turd.

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

That should be disallowed in all Christian countries.

[Chick McGee]

Wonderful chick.

[Tom Griswold]

You like that one?

[Christy Lee]

I like that one.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. You do?

[Tom Griswold]

Thanks.

[Christy Lee]

It gets under the wire. Well, up until Tumbleweed.

[Josh Arnold]

That's true.

[Christy Lee]

But this one gets in.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, Underneath the Tree by Kelly Clarkson. That's the one.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know if I know that.

[Unknown Speaker]

I think it's in. What's the love. Actually, that's where it got popular, is in that movie, I think.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, this stinks.

[Christy Lee]

Can watch the snow fall forever and.

[Tom Griswold]

Ever.

[Chick McGee]

It'S got its place yeah, the garbage and the bath house.

[Christy Lee]

So for the admissions free. Then of course, the.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat, would you slip in the bath house?

[Christy Lee]

Yes. Here's Pat's Christmas song. Tom, you ready?

[Josh Arnold]

That's just mean.

[Christy Lee]

What about Santa Claus by Sunny Boy Williamson?

[Tom Griswold]

This is what. I love this one. Ever heard this one?

[Ace Cosby]

Christmas in Jail.

[Christy Lee]

Christmas in jail Had a little too much to drink oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Ain't got no bail Ain't got no.

[Tom Griswold]

Bail where's he gonna end?

[Christy Lee]

Clink.

[Pat Godwin]

I like the clink.

[Tom Griswold]

My mom always used the word, the clink.

[Unknown Speaker]

I like that.

[Christy Lee]

Sunny Boy Williams.

[Tom Griswold]

Nice guitar.

[Pat Godwin]

My baby was shopping yesterday so I'm going to buy what you need for.

[Christy Lee]

Santa Claus Buy what you need for.

[Pat Godwin]

Santa Claus My baby was shopping yesterday.

[Christy Lee]

She went shopping so I'm going to.

[Pat Godwin]

Buy what you need for Santa Claus yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Women be shopping.

[Pat Godwin]

I'm gonna take mine with me. But I'll leave your arm and My clothes are drawn.

[Christy Lee]

Left in his dresser drawer.

[Pat Godwin]

So that starts me to remnant.

[Chick McGee]

All right, this is one the chicken draws.

[Pat Godwin]

Or versus.

[Josh Arnold]

It's a little hard to understand.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, it's cool as hell.

[Tom Griswold]

It's great, though. Nice and raw.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

What's the name of that song?

[Christy Lee]

Santa Claus.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

By Sunny Boy Williamson.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, man.

[Christy Lee]

How you doing, Josh?

[Pat Godwin]

Somebody has a new keyboard.

[Chick McGee]

They're not immediate. Nobody else is immediately angry.

[Pat Godwin]

Vomiting in my sleep.

[Tom Griswold]

So happy. It's a happy.

[Christy Lee]

It's so.

[Chick McGee]

It's so fake.

[Christy Lee]

Remember?

[Tom Griswold]

It's so fake.

[Christy Lee]

They're getting. They just got caught. And they're acting like they're right. In the Christmas song, the moon is right.

[Unknown Speaker]

See, listen. The spirits are seance.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a very interesting interpretation.

[Unknown Speaker]

Just kidding. It's Christmas time.

[Tom Griswold]

A wonderful Christmas time. Sweet. Now is the.

[Josh Arnold]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

I did notice that. But following a. Following a controversy a few years ago, it seems that the song Baby, It's Cold Outside is back.

[Josh Arnold]

Back.

[Unknown Speaker]

I. I love the version from Elf. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's very sweet.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

You know Sinatra's version, right, Christy? You know.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, God.

[Pat Godwin]

Remember?

[Tom Griswold]

How does it go?

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah, it's a good one.

[Pat Godwin]

I really can't stay.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, you're gonna go.

[Pat Godwin]

You're gonna go. I really can't stay. And we're gonna do. This is Sinatra's version.

[Tom Griswold]

Frank S. Go ahead.

[Pat Godwin]

Go ahead.

[Josh Arnold]

I really can't stay.

[Pat Godwin]

You're staying.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you, Ava Gardner.

[Christy Lee]

Thank you, Ava Gardner.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but remember, there was a bunch of stations.

[Josh Arnold]

A lot of people question.

[Chick McGee]

Nobody was really offended by it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, there was some.

[Chick McGee]

I know, but they weren't really offended by it.

[Tom Griswold]

No, it's just one of those I.

[Josh Arnold]

Just wanted to make.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Women don't.

[Chick McGee]

Women kind of like to be told they're staying?

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, yeah. I'm into it.

[Chick McGee]

That there was a sexiness to that song.

[Unknown Speaker]

That it was harmless.

[Chick McGee]

Women aren't that fragile.

[Unknown Speaker]

No, we're not. And we'll whip your ass.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Unknown Speaker]

We're not worried about it.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

So the premise, though, was that it was very cold outside. He didn't want her to leave.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah. But that's maybe just another drink.

[Chick McGee]

But he's not being creepy. Like, he's not.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Chick McGee]

You gotta throw it back to those.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You really can't stay.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

He's just like, drugs are kicking in.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

My Viagra is now working.

[Unknown Speaker]

Pat, we should do a version of it.

[Pat Godwin]

Whatever you want.

[Unknown Speaker]

Update it. Let's do it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's a good.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Do the do the Viagra slash Cialis.

[Chick McGee]

I like that.

[Unknown Speaker]

Make it worse.

[Christy Lee]

Make it a sexual assault. Full blown sexual assault.

[Tom Griswold]

What do they call. What are the drugs called that?

[Christy Lee]

Roofies.

[Tom Griswold]

The roofies. Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

The doors are all locked.

[Christy Lee]

You don't know who you are to shut your. Your eyes did.

[Tom Griswold]

He's got the camera.

[Christy Lee]

Lay back and enjoy.

[Josh Arnold]

I was going somewhere else. With luck, I was trying.

[Pat Godwin]

I would assume that Tom was going to pick up.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. All right. We're going to move on from that to gingerbread houses. A museum in Minnesota offering classes that teach architecture and design using, among other things, gingerbread houses.

[Tom Griswold]

This is load bearing. These gumdrops are going to be used as rivets for this load bearing.

[Christy Lee]

So much for having fun with the gingerbread house.

[Josh Arnold]

NPR News reports that the Stearns History Museum in St. Cloud hosts the unusual workshop as part of its mission to preserve and share history. The class is led by Evan Larson with GLT Architects. Who requires gingerbread architects to sketch a blueprint and apply for a building permit.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, forget that.

[Josh Arnold]

Checks each design.

[Tom Griswold]

Building permit. That's going to be impossible.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I know. Take you, what, six to eight weeks before you can even get.

[Chick McGee]

You got to grease some palms.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Giving builders the green light to construct their gingerbread houses. The idea, of course, is to have fun. But I wonder, do they put them on display? But they make some pretty cool gingerbread.

[Chick McGee]

I bet there are some cool looking ones.

[Unknown Speaker]

Have you seen the charcuterie houses where it's all like meat and crackers now in houses instead of. It's the savory version.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you eat them or.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You set it up so that it's. It's just holiday version.

[Josh Arnold]

Wouldn't it be like Jenga? You pull the wrong thing, it's all false.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that's, that's great. I haven't seen one of them.

[Unknown Speaker]

They look neat. Yeah, they're fun.

[Tom Griswold]

Bring one of those in here for the. I'm going to probably throw to get a little Christmas party for you guys.

[Chick McGee]

You are? Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Can you, can you organize getting a.

[Unknown Speaker]

A charcuterie house?

[Tom Griswold]

A charcuterie house. You don't have to come check. It's supposed to be fun.

[Unknown Speaker]

He won't come anyway.

[Christy Lee]

He's just talking out his ass.

[Tom Griswold]

He's not going to have lunch.

[Unknown Speaker]

We'll have lunch.

[Tom Griswold]

We had just. We done one every year.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you. You need to tell us in advance.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm going to tell you what I waits.

[Unknown Speaker]

He waits because he doesn't want us on.

[Christy Lee]

That's why he doesn't want us. Can you.

[Chick McGee]

Pretty good move.

[Christy Lee]

Can you imagine?

[Unknown Speaker]

Very smart.

[Christy Lee]

Can you imagine us asking him? Can you be somewhere next Tuesday? Oh, boy. I have a meeting.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sure I do.

[Josh Arnold]

Having surgery.

[Tom Griswold]

You're having surgery?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. My other eyes.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, it's not the rejuvenation.

[Josh Arnold]

No, not this.

[Tom Griswold]

I got the dog. I got the dog in the.

[Josh Arnold]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

That's not funny.

[Tom Griswold]

I think we did it.

[Chick McGee]

Your best friend.

[Tom Griswold]

We already did a. We already did a gingerbread house.

[Josh Arnold]

Am I. I thought you said four.

[Tom Griswold]

We did four of them. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Four. You've done four.

[Chick McGee]

What are you flipping? Three.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no. Wait a second. Wait a second. That is a great idea. Can you imagine hgtv? Your friend.

[Christy Lee]

Somebody should meet.

[Tom Griswold]

Mina could do it. This gingerbread house has good bones.

[Christy Lee]

That's. That's funnier than anything Saturday Night Live's done this year.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

So that would be. That would be flipping gingerbread houses.

[Tom Griswold]

I love the fact that this is a fun idea for architecture students, but, I mean, obviously, if you have to get it through the. The process of going to the inspector and everything, I.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, it's going to be.

[Chick McGee]

Is there anything more crooked than those people?

[Unknown Speaker]

Not really.

[Tom Griswold]

It's important to have a housing that is properly made and the sanitation department. Oh, okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

What is a cardboard roof and then the gingerbread on top. I've never done.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no.

[Josh Arnold]

Never done a gingerbread house.

[Tom Griswold]

You can buy an apartment now. You can buy. You can buy the house. Already made. It's already made of gingerbread.

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Unknown Speaker]

It's the. It's just the sides. It's the structure itself. And then you decorate it and put it together.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Then you just put on.

[Josh Arnold]

You don't have to put the roof on or not.

[Tom Griswold]

Nope. It's all done. It's modular. Yes. It's essentially delivered. You just have to add the siding.

[Josh Arnold]

The best part is trying to get the icing to stick to so your walls don't fall down.

[Unknown Speaker]

You have to. You do it. You have to put it together. It's just the structure.

[Tom Griswold]

The ones. The ones I have are. They're all.

[Josh Arnold]

They're all done.

[Tom Griswold]

They're all done.

[Unknown Speaker]

So you're just gluing the candy on.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, you're just gluing the candy.

[Unknown Speaker]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

And eating it. That's the beauty for the kids.

[Unknown Speaker]

Do you like gingerbread bread?

[Josh Arnold]

First of all, you let the kids eat that candy that comes with those.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, we buy. We buy sour.

[Chick McGee]

Remember windmill cookies?

[Unknown Speaker]

I do.

[Chick McGee]

Or windmill cookies. Essentially, gingerbread yes. Okay.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah. It's a ginger cookie.

[Chick McGee]

Gotcha.

[Unknown Speaker]

I think that the windmill cookies were. Are those hard or soft?

[Josh Arnold]

Hard. They're.

[Chick McGee]

They were kind of crispy. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Isn't the gingerbread man that. Isn't there that endless video when your kids are three? They watch it over and over again. What? I remember. Oh, yeah. And the. He's chasing the gingerbread man.

[Chick McGee]

Are you thinking of the. Oh, yeah. Hey, you can't catch me.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Run as. Run as fast you can.

[Chick McGee]

My nieces love that. You're right.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know how I could forget that. I watched it 10,000 times with a kid on.

[Unknown Speaker]

And then the gingerbread.

[Tom Griswold]

Better get a new kid so I can get through it. Do it again.

[Unknown Speaker]

Gingerbread man made a comeback in Shrek, right?

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

You ever seen Ginger Dead Man?

[Unknown Speaker]

No.

[Josh Arnold]

Is that a horror film?

[Chick McGee]

Yes. Gary Busey voices the ginger dead man.

[Unknown Speaker]

It's animated.

[Chick McGee]

He's kind of a puppet deal.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

It is just awful.

[Christy Lee]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

It's kind of meant to be, I think.

[Tom Griswold]

Gotcha.

[Josh Arnold]

A Virginia man is accused of trying to shoplift.

[Chick McGee]

Whether or not he's had sex makes no difference to this story.

[Josh Arnold]

What you said a Virginia man not a virgin. A Virginia.

[Chick McGee]

I miss her. I'm sorry. Did I try to throw a joke out there? I can talk more about Paul Rogers and his dick. Whatever it was you.

[Josh Arnold]

I thought you honestly heard me say that. A Virginia man is accused of trying to shoplift during a shop with a cop event. WTVR reports about 50 Chesterfield County Police officers gathered at a Walmart.

[Christy Lee]

Chesterfield tastes good like a cigarette.

[Tom Griswold]

W tvr. Okay. Because wvcr, nothing's ever alive.

[Josh Arnold]

Police lieutenant James Lamb told the station that an.

[Christy Lee]

He's on the.

[Josh Arnold]

Lamb came up to us and informed us they had a shoplifting in progress.

[Chick McGee]

That's as good as virgin.

[Christy Lee]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

I think.

[Christy Lee]

Talk about Paul Rogers.

[Tom Griswold]

We've had two bad ones since the virgin joke.

[Christy Lee]

How do we start talking about Paul Rogers? Isn't even talking about Paul Rogers.

[Josh Arnold]

Officers found the suspect attempting to make his escape, but was soon surrounded and taken into custody.

[Tom Griswold]

So the guy shop.

[Josh Arnold]

Did I mention it was a shop with a cop?

[Tom Griswold]

So there are cops all over the store.

[Josh Arnold]

The 32 year old faces a felony charge of grand larceny. He attempted to steal nearly $1,400 worth of items.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, man.

[Chick McGee]

The wrong day.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, well, he had to see all the cop cars out there. What an idiot. Maybe he figured, well, no one would be stupid enough to do this. So they're not going to be looking looking maybe. Makes sense. Unfortunately, it's a shop with a cop. Was Thursday, Friday was. Masturbate with your cellmate.

[Christy Lee]

Masturbate with your cellmate.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a big deal. He's gonna be there just in time.

[Chick McGee]

You know what tomorrow is, Spike?

[Christy Lee]

I'll be behind the sink.

[Chick McGee]

I think I can save it up.

[Josh Arnold]

Then he won't be a virgin man anymore, will he?

[Chick McGee]

Okay, well, there's the nice bow.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, there you go. It's. It's a time to check in.

[Christy Lee]

Heard the joke about hide and seek. You probably haven't had you the hide and seek joke.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, it's so good.

[Christy Lee]

Josh, you want to tell her the hide and seek show.

[Chick McGee]

Two fellas or.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, they meet at a bar. It's mostly men. Gotta get the set up.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, and they go back to, you know, the one guy's house.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, you want to play some hide and seek? The other guy goes, sure. And he goes, okay, if you can find me, you can make love to me up the. And if you can't find me, I'll be behind the couch.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, my God.

[Tom Griswold]

[Christy Lee]

I don't. You didn't tell me he was gonna jump in.

[Josh Arnold]

So bad.

[Unknown Speaker]

So, so bad.

[Christy Lee]

No, there's nothing you guys can do. What? What, you think I'm gonna, like, double or triple shock it or something?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, you're smarter than that.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm smarter. Okay. Because. Yeah. I mean, you could do a quad. If you believe in your bet tonight, you could take all the money you lost.

[Christy Lee]

What are you talking. And double it.

[Tom Griswold]

What's your bet?

[Unknown Speaker]

Would you. What? What?

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Christy Lee]

$10,000.

[Josh Arnold]

10,000.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a Cincinnati.

[Christy Lee]

I have Dallas plus six points tonight against the Bangers.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't want to be in Dallas.

[Christy Lee]

Am I gonna lose? Bad.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't want to be rooting for Dallas and I don't.

[Christy Lee]

So you think I should switch and then triple it up? Is that what you say?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's what I would do.

[Josh Arnold]

So I go to Cincinnati.

[Tom Griswold]

Do what's. They're a great. A great team.

[Christy Lee]

Bengals minus six and then, like, triple shot.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah. Joe Burrow. Four touchdowns.

[Christy Lee]

No, they're in Dallas.

[Josh Arnold]

I know. That's what I'm saying.

[Christy Lee]

Dallas plus the six. Yeah.

[Unknown Speaker]

And I have no idea what any of this means.

[Christy Lee]

No, I don't. I don't need to.

[Tom Griswold]

Really? So that's fine.

[Christy Lee]

There's nothing you can say that would make it all right. You sons of. I love.

[Chick McGee]

Is this what you wanted?

[Christy Lee]

See me bleed. I'll just lay there and bleed a while. I will take Dallas, plus the six. And I will triple shock it for the first time ever.

That'll help you. That'll help you catch up.

[Christy Lee]

Three. I meant three. Triple, triple, triple. Shock, shock, shock. Holy cow, I've blown the door.

[Tom Griswold]

[Christy Lee]

Sorry to bother you. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

That mean be part of the show?

[Christy Lee]

I'm just trying. Just trying to get in the spirit of things. I just thought that, you know.

[Tom Griswold]

Back to your turn.

[Josh Arnold]

History.

[Christy Lee]

My. I'm. I'm.

[Tom Griswold]

Where's my intro?

[Christy Lee]

I'm texting with my cleaning. Okay, time now for today in history. Here's Tom. Okay, an alternate intro. What do you think?

[Chick McGee]

I hear this at the mall. I'm just feeding my shoelace into the escalator.

[Christy Lee]

That'd be a slow way to go.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, we have. I'll play some music for this first date here. The Charlie Brown Christmas premiered on this date on CBS way back. 1965.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I don't feel I'm overstating this. It's one of the greatest things ever.

[Tom Griswold]

Ever.

[Josh Arnold]

Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

I agree.

[Josh Arnold]

Absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, it's amazing.

[Josh Arnold]

He doesn't love it.

[Tom Griswold]

This music has.

[Pat Godwin]

It's.

[Tom Griswold]

Now it means Christmas. And it has since 65. I think this.

[Christy Lee]

This is skating, right?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

This soundtrack is the only time I ever purchased a CD from Starbucks.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You remember. I don't know if they still do. They'll have like five or six Cs there. Yeah. I went, well, I'm doing it.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yeah, that's great.

[Tom Griswold]

Disgrace and. Well, this. That's. That CD was actually pulled. It was by Lucy.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah. She.

[Chick McGee]

Just before I was going to play.

[Tom Griswold]

It, she pulled it.

[Chick McGee]

I fell right on my butt.

[Unknown Speaker]

Jerk.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. On this date, on a different note, in 67, just two years after that, Jim Morrison arrested on stage in New Haven, Connecticut.

[Josh Arnold]

Was he naked that time?

[Tom Griswold]

Partially.

[Christy Lee]

No, not Connecticut. Miami Beach. He was naked.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. This one. I think he might just been cursing or something.

[Unknown Speaker]

You have a big hog.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, well, called him the lizard king.

[Unknown Speaker]

There you go.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, the biggest.

[Josh Arnold]

Elizabeth wore leather pants a lot, so it stuck out.

[Tom Griswold]

They were snakeskin pants. And his bandmates finally said, hey, Jim, there's an odor issue.

[Christy Lee]

Have you ever. Have you ever worn a pair of leather pants? Yes or no?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Christy Lee]

You have.

[Chick McGee]

Like to go out to the bar.

[Josh Arnold]

No way.

[Unknown Speaker]

As a joke?

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, you were in a play.

[Tom Griswold]

My brother had a pair of them and I used to wear them skiing back in the way. Back in the day. They weren't bad.

[Chick McGee]

Weren't they? Immediately ruined.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, of course.

[Chick McGee]

But they were my brothers.

[Tom Griswold]

Thanks, John.

[Josh Arnold]

So they weren't like Jim Morrison. Cool.

[Tom Griswold]

No, they were. They were not. On this date of 1983, Scarface starring Al Pacino was released.

[Christy Lee]

Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, it's dated.

[Christy Lee]

Say hello, my little friend.

[Josh Arnold]

Wasn't that the movie that had the most F words in it for a long time?

[Chick McGee]

Probably, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That way they didn't rough chainsaw didn't have to write a script. Let's see. That's too sad.

[Christy Lee]

That guy from the chainsaw scene did stand up for a long time.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's right. He only recently passed away.

[Pat Godwin]

Angel Salazar.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, he was. I remember him being in here.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I think chicken do an impression of this guy. The long lived recently passed away. Kirk Douglas, born in this date in 1916.

[Christy Lee]

That's right. Tom, is this what you're looking for?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. We had Frank Gor in the room doing it.

[Christy Lee]

Michael Douglas is dead.

[Chick McGee]

I love you, Spicus. Join me in heaven.

[Tom Griswold]

Brilliant.

[Christy Lee]

That's Tony Curden. Oh, I see what you're doing.

[Tom Griswold]

Brilliant. Comedian Red Fox, born in the state in 19.

[Christy Lee]

Got to watch your way.

[Tom Griswold]

1922.

[Josh Arnold]

Pretty good.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And then some people who are still alive. Bo bridges are in 41.

[Christy Lee]

Not Bo Brummel.

[Tom Griswold]

Dick Butkins.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I just saw him in a movie.

[Josh Arnold]

You did?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, was it Pride and Prejudice?

[Chick McGee]

It was honestly Gremlins 2, the new batch.

[Unknown Speaker]

Oh, gosh.

[Chick McGee]

He and Bubba. He and Bubba Smith are in a buffet in the Gremlins Attack.

[Christy Lee]

They did. He and Bubba cashed in on it.

[Tom Griswold]

For a little bit.

[Christy Lee]

They sure did. I remember plainly Bubba Smith playing for Michigan State and thinking, this guy is so big and so fast. He. He's amazing. Yeah. And he did pretty well.

[Chick McGee]

You think he made more money playing football or being in a police academy movies?

[Christy Lee]

Police academy movies, yeah.

Yeah. Back in those days, probably. Sadly. Okay, well, thank you so much. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

Huge part of his company. He's like, did you see how much money I got? 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.
