Tone & Style

Spirited, irreverent, pun-filled, and fast-moving, The Bob & Tom Show maintains a playful, slightly subversive edge—even as it veers into heartfelt moments (tasting pie, family talk, debates over household chores). Banter is rambunctious yet affectionate, with cast members challenging and riffing off each other in a style fans recognize as classic “B&T”.

---

Conclusion

This episode demonstrates why The Bob & Tom Show remains a morning radio staple: it artfully walks the comedy/news line, roasting current events, puncturing daily frustrations, and making the mundane feel extraordinary—all topped with original music and spontaneous chemistry. Whether it’s fighting over chicken prep, tasting huckleberry pie, griping about printers, or dissecting the logic of Lent, nobody delivers “life with a twist” quite like this.

Transcript

[Chick McGee]

It's the bob and tom show. Hello, Everybody. I'm Chick McGee, and this is my band, the Chick McGee Experience. Hello, ladies. Hello, Mr. McGee. Oh, please, girls, after last night, I preferred if you call me Chick. What? How are you talking about that?

[Tom Griswold]

Never mind.

[Chick McGee]

All right, everybody, stand back. Time to get ready. Let's get funky, get freaky. You know that I love to sing about that stuff. So sweet and nasty. But since I did my last record, I've had the occasional angioplasty. Now, ladies, don't you be concerned. There's no need for mass hysteria. Cause when it comes to getting pudding, I've never had a problem in that area. Chick, you are a nasty boy. Bring the ladies lots of joy. Biggest duck we've ever seen. Chick, you are a sex machine. Gimme a whiff.

[Tom Griswold]

Right on. Solid.

[Chick McGee]

Still stanky.

[Josh Arnold]

Reaching, reaching.

[Chick McGee]

Groping, groping. Wow. Probing, probing. Cursing, cursing. I'm jumping, I'm pumping. Is that your leg I'm humping? Some borax will get out this thing.

[Josh Arnold]

What's his name?

[Chick McGee]

All right, ladies, it's time for the chickster to hit the dance floor. I'll show you the move I taught James Brown back in 63. Oh, wait a minute. I think I may have hurt myself. Oh, boy. I'm not kidding. I'm not entirely well, you know, I. I feel rather faint. Does anyone have any nitro? Can somebody please call 91 1? Oh, my chest is beginning to tight. Uh. Oh, I can't get my. Oh, man, is it. It's really hot in here. Oh, boy. Mr. Griswold, this is wonderful, all these musicians, but it's really starting to hurt. Mr. Mr. Griswold.

[Josh Arnold]

He's cranky and whiny.

[Chick McGee]

He kisses Tom's. What's his name? I'm not faking this, you know. Well, now you think it's funny. It's not funny. Hey. Hi there. Ho there. Come on in. Take off your skin and rattle around in your bones. It's the bomb. And Tom, show Christy Lee with another scarf.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Very nice.

[Jess Hooker]

Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

Is this St. Patrick's Day today?

[Chick McGee]

What the hell's going on? Almost spring.

[Josh Arnold]

Spring?

[Christy Lee]

Well, I have. I'm leaving a little early today because I have to go somewhere.

[Chick McGee]

Gynecology. Get your feet scraped. What's going on?

[Christy Lee]

No, no, no, no, no.

[Tom Griswold]

Knocked up again. Which hillbilly did it? This.

[Chick McGee]

Wow. Really?

[Christy Lee]

So all my husbands have been hillbillies, is that what you're saying?

[Chick McGee]

And you're a hillbilly? He's implying you're I don't care.

[Josh Arnold]

Not your husband. Just the people who knocked you off.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you, Josh, for the distinction.

[Chick McGee]

There's Pat Godwin. Hello, Josh.

[Christy Lee]

Arnold.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, Trickster.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I like that flannel, that. That burgundy. Yeah. Nice. There's Ace Cosby. Hey, I'm Chick. And today is Huckleberry PI Day with Jess Hooker. She'll be by.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that why we're having the. Who's got the shamrocks all over the building?

[Josh Arnold]

Here's just decorated for the upcoming.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that a month away?

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, half a month.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it's a little early, so.

[Josh Arnold]

You put up your Christmas tree the day before Christmas?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. What are you doing there?

[Christy Lee]

He got you there.

[Josh Arnold]

Not really.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't think St. Patrick's Day has quite the significance of the birth of our Lord.

[Chick McGee]

You look at any spirit manufacturer in St. Patrick's Day's right up there, I think. I think Halloween's first, actually. And St. Patrick's Day, and then. Then Christmas, of course.

[Christy Lee]

Valentine's Day. Don't skip that one. People, they love to decorate for that.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, we're still in the beginning stages of Lent. And I did a little research.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, God.

[Chick McGee]

Because it's a little homework.

[Tom Griswold]

Yesterday we were discussing this no fish on Friday thing.

[Christy Lee]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

And I did some homework, and I've got a list of things you can eat. It's quite surprising, some of the things. Christie, you're allowed to eat on Fridays.

[Christy Lee]

Grown up this way. I'm pretty much aware.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you know that you can eat alligator?

[Christy Lee]

Thanks to you, I have remembered that, yes.

[Tom Griswold]

What is it called? Copy Burrow. Whatever the hell it is.

[Christy Lee]

Copy burrows. Yeah. That's not like a big rodent.

[Josh Arnold]

Capybaras.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, It's. I've got. I've got the. The list. Legal lent stuff.

[Chick McGee]

Legal lent stuff from.

[Christy Lee]

I really think it depends on what parish you're into, because I. You know, we are needing.

[Chick McGee]

That doesn't sound. Doesn't sound right at all. That's like giving rights to states. I don't think that's. That's asking for trouble.

[Tom Griswold]

You're both right. There's no national or international set of laws from the Pope, so I.

[Josh Arnold]

It's all by archdiocese.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah. But I do have the list, so it's. It's quite. From Food and Wine, don't you think?

[Chick McGee]

Arch enemy instead of archdiocese.

[Josh Arnold]

Do you know when I hear the word archdiocese.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, you hear it starting with arch and. Sorry, go ahead.

[Tom Griswold]

We're allowed to have a whole lot. To have many different topics. I believe yesterday we actually had a letter about this first segment. You know, we shouldn't be allowed to talk. Jumped from topic to topic. Hey look, we're tired. I got a quick thing for you.

[Chick McGee]

Uh oh.

[Christy Lee]

What did you do last night?

[Tom Griswold]

Nothing. I woke up this morning and I looked at my phone.

[Chick McGee]

You're not supposed to do that.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, no, I was. I'd already been up for Denzel Washington.

[Chick McGee]

Says you. A half hour before you look at your phone. Really spend the time waking up.

[Tom Griswold]

I was in my kitchen, I looked at the phone and it said something like warning, take alternate route. Road construction, blocking exit. And how did it. So my phone knows the way I go? Apparently.

[Christy Lee]

Apparently it didn't because you know.

[Tom Griswold]

So I took the alternate route today.

[Chick McGee]

And you save time, which is funny

[Christy Lee]

because that sign came up on the highway when I was coming in and I took a chance and it wasn't closed. I know, right?

[Tom Griswold]

They've been working on the same road for three years now and they keep closing exits and entrances. You never know. But I didn't. So my phone is following me without my consent.

[Chick McGee]

I'll go you one better. The my phone. And I didn't enter this. My phone knows where I work and where my home is. And it just spit it out one day.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, if you like put in maps or something.

[Chick McGee]

No, it was the address. And it knows where I go every morning and it knows where I go after. After work.

[Tom Griswold]

I hadn't entered anything.

[Chick McGee]

I've labeled it.

[Tom Griswold]

Out of nowhere it goes.

[Chick McGee]

It's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Take an alternate route today.

[Christy Lee]

Do you use Venmo? No, I use Venmo on a pretty regular basis for three or four people. And it knows when I go to my Venmo account that I'm there. It'll. That's be the first one on the list. Come on.

[Chick McGee]

My phone is a real go getter.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, it.

[Chick McGee]

It mixes music for me. It tells me routes to take.

[Tom Griswold]

That is.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, happened yesterday at the nail sale.

[Tom Griswold]

But I. It's never told me anything like that before. So I. It knows everything. It's amazing. And I didn't enter any.

[Christy Lee]

How was your alternate route?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, fine.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, well that's good.

[Tom Griswold]

Made almost every light. It was lovely. I may go there from now on.

[Christy Lee]

There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

Except for I did see some scary looking dude.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, they're out there, man.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, scary looking dudes are everywhere.

[Tom Griswold]

Like 3:30 in the morning and I went through this one particular area.

[Chick McGee]

Oh yeah, sure, roll them up.

[Tom Griswold]

Guy walking. Guy walking with a. Guy walking with a backpack.

[Chick McGee]

Oh yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I slowed Down.

[Josh Arnold]

Working man on his way to a job, probably.

[Chick McGee]

No, his car's in the shop.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm this guy looking for a bridge to go under after he's raped and

[Chick McGee]

pillaged a few people after he's raped me.

[Tom Griswold]

So.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, you remember a couple weeks ago when I said I never felt more like a man when I fixed my hot water heater? I went on YouTube. It taught me. And I, I. Well, this morning, same thing. I get up and the printer is blinking and I go, what the hell's going on? So it had paper jammed and I, I went in there and I got that paper out of there. I never felt so accomplished in my life. By God. It's working fine now, Tom. Thanks.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that happened before you even came into work.

[Chick McGee]

You came into work? Yeah, like. Well, you know me. I get up before I go to bed. It's the, the Tom rule. And, yeah, working on the printer this morning about 4:00'. Clock. And I said, well, this, this will not stand. And I unjam the paper. You think you could do that? I don't think, no.

[Tom Griswold]

That's the kind of thing where I go buy a new printer for a paper jam. No, I hate those things.

[Chick McGee]

That thought crossed my mind.

[Tom Griswold]

When I have to print, I come in here. So do I. I've got a print at home. Never works.

[Christy Lee]

I give up exactly the same.

[Tom Griswold]

Yesterday. This is interesting. I was doing the dishes, like I always do.

[Chick McGee]

Like I always do.

[Tom Griswold]

Got the thing loaded just the way I like it. And I went to start it and it said, locked. Locked. I mean, locked. It's got this readout on it. Locked. I've never seen this before.

[Christy Lee]

You hit the wrong button, didn't you?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know what happened. Of course, I hadn't touched anything. I just opened.

[Chick McGee]

I don't believe you.

[Tom Griswold]

Just let me get to the point.

[Chick McGee]

I don't believe you.

[Tom Griswold]

I told Kelly, what do I do now? She says, I don't know, Google it.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So I Googled it. And 30 seconds later. Yeah, you have to hold down.

[Josh Arnold]

I thought you told us this was interesting.

[Tom Griswold]

No, just wait a second. No, no, here's the good part.

[Chick McGee]

He did make a point of stopping and go. Now this is interesting.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I didn't. It had.

[Chick McGee]

I knew my paper jam story was a snooze.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you know that? Did you know that a dishwasher has a child lock on it?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Why?

[Chick McGee]

So children won't get in there.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Open it up and all of a sudden fall on the knives. I mean, that's like a big household.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

That's like a big household accident.

[Chick McGee]

Dude, didn't you see Garden State?

[Tom Griswold]

No, but it's in Garden State in locked mode. It won't start.

[Chick McGee]

Zach Braff's mom gets killed.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, okay. So they can't just mess around with. Yeah, you can't play it didn't lock the door.

[Tom Griswold]

No, it wouldn't start. The whole thing wouldn't go.

[Josh Arnold]

Gotcha.

[Tom Griswold]

Locked it all off. I didn't understand. But why would you have a childproof dishwasher?

[Chick McGee]

My dryer does that so you don't mess up.

[Josh Arnold]

So they. You know, I've had my. My two year old niece walked up to my dishwasher while I was running and started hitting buttons and I. Oh yeah. And then it stopped and I was

[Tom Griswold]

like, oh, I don't know how clean

[Josh Arnold]

these are or not.

[Chick McGee]

Two year olds are the worst. They can push buttons instead of hit you in the nose.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you let your dogs lick the dishes when you're loading it?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Josh Arnold]

Loading it is one. I wouldn't.

[Christy Lee]

No.

[Josh Arnold]

I would prefer them not to. But that's better than my dogs think that's dessert.

[Tom Griswold]

Now when you're unloading. Yes, I have all. I have a strict rule.

[Chick McGee]

Right.

[Pat Godwin]

It doesn't make any sense.

[Chick McGee]

You are so paranoid about germs and disorders and you let your filthy dogs lick your plates.

[Tom Griswold]

But then I run it and my dishwasher has a of course sanitary cycle. Admittedly it takes eight hours and it burns more kilowatts than AI in our county.

[Pat Godwin]

But it's worth it.

[Tom Griswold]

Those dishes. Those dishes are clean. But the point of the story, Google has the answer to everything. You just type in the name of the product.

[Chick McGee]

And it's true.

[Tom Griswold]

Tells you how to fix everything.

[Chick McGee]

I looked up how to reset my oil change on my car. Oh, here's what you do. Boom, boom, boom, bang. There it is.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, that's really helpful.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, instead of the blinking line, there's

[Tom Griswold]

somebody out there that can do it all. And they'll tell you on the world in the world of Google. Now coming up in sports we have

[Chick McGee]

so you're going to be bury a body.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, Google's also why your phone knows exactly where you are. You answered the whole segment. You answered your own question from the beginning.

[Tom Griswold]

That's how this happened.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh yeah.

[Chick McGee]

USA. USA. The girls win in hockey, beating Canada OT again in overtime. 407 into overtime, 2 1.

[Josh Arnold]

Man, it was amazing.

[Chick McGee]

American captain Hillary Knight forced overtime with about 2 minutes 3 seconds left. Tipped Lila Edwards shot from the blue line with 204 remaining. And then Megan Keller backhanded in a shot 407 into overtime. America wins 2:1. And hey, in their overtime, they. They go to three on three. And that is pretty good. You know, they have the goalies, obviously, but three on three, out on the ice, it's. That's pretty darn exciting.

[Josh Arnold]

Very.

[Chick McGee]

Maybe say they should do that in the NFL. Go to seven. Seven on seven. Football is huge in Texas.

[Tom Griswold]

How about in the NHL?

[Chick McGee]

It could. Well, the NHL, I like the shootouts and the. And the overtime where they skate an extra period, I think, and then they just do shootouts, shootouts for five minutes

[Josh Arnold]

in regular season and then, then they'll go to a shootout. But playoffs, man, they'll play until somebody scores.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, today is today.

[Chick McGee]

The Gentleman. The Gentleman plays Slovakia at three o' clock our time, usa.

[Tom Griswold]

Good. Now, also coming up in the news, we have exciting things in the world of dating.

[Chick McGee]

We have a question from the behind the scenes type A follow up to your fabulous dishwasher story and the child lock. Tom, do all four of your dishwashers have child locks or just the primary dishwasher?

[Tom Griswold]

It's a fair question. And the answer is they. They do. Oh, apparently. But it never happened before. That's what I'm saying.

[Chick McGee]

So you got two dishwashers in the kitchen side by side?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Somebody hit something on accident.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. I. It's great. I wish I had two washers and dryers.

[Chick McGee]

What size hot water heater do you have? Does it look just like the Titanic?

[Tom Griswold]

No. I have entered the 21st century. Christy and I have both entered the 21st century. I have the tankless.

[Chick McGee]

You got the tankless water heater heaters.

[Tom Griswold]

Very nice.

[Chick McGee]

Boom, boom, boom.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it flows all the time. I could just luxuriate in my shower.

[Josh Arnold]

Those don't make any sense.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll foam up my pubes.

[Christy Lee]

You know what? I'm with you. I don't know how it works.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm gonna have to follow around somebody who installs those and just ask questions.

[Christy Lee]

I got a guy.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, it's great.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

The best. Josh, I'm sure.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, that's wonderful. I look forward to at some point

[Tom Griswold]

if you ever had the old fashioned kind of water heater. And when it, when it goes.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's always.

[Tom Griswold]

[Chick McGee]

hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. We are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. There's Christy Lee.

[Christy Lee]

Hello. Chick Magee.

[Chick McGee]

Hey. Now there's Pat Godwin. Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

There's Ace Cosby. Hey, I'm Chic McGee. We have emails from our listeners coast to coast and all around the world. Brought to you by Hyundai, the all new Hyundai Palisade hybrid. Learn how it makes every day epic@hyundai USA.com it's epic.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you very much. Now we were talking about googling things to find out how to fix them, which can be very handy. I did this thing with my dishwasher Last night. And it was. It was counterintuitive.

[Christy Lee]

Have you used those? You know how you have a thermostat, they all look different and they're all different, and you don't save those little instructions. Do you know Google? That's great for that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. But in mind, it was a. The screen, you just. It's counterintuitive. You just. There's like you. You hit the button that says heavy, you have to hold it for five seconds and it resets. But you'd never know that, right? You wouldn't think, oh, that's probably the one you press. Got this nice little letter involving just this exact topic. Dear Bob and Tom show. I was trying to fix my car. I went on to Google. There was a man with a very heavy Indian accent making the repair. It was going great. I was following his instructions. And then he took away one particular part and said, oh, this no good. Then the screen went black. I just spent 15 minutes watching this. YouTube just leaves it up there.

[Chick McGee]

So.

[Christy Lee]

Okay. And our Bob and Thomas, our good friend Jeff Oskay has this rule. Never go with the first video that comes up on YouTube.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that the rule?

[Christy Lee]

Yes, that's the rule. Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Your Bob and Tom show. You mentioned bears and bear scat. I would love to hear Josh imitating bears scatting in the woods.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, wouldn't that be something.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I get it now. Yeah. Bear hunched over. That's Greg from Omaha.

[Josh Arnold]

Man, that would be.

[Chick McGee]

That would be a wild, wild, lumbering through the woods. Can you imagine the mood hits him

[Tom Griswold]

and his yogi go Scooby Doobie.

[Josh Arnold]

That would be weird.

[Tom Griswold]

That'd be Bear Scout. All right.

[Chick McGee]

Yogi does not sing, but Huckleberry Hound sings. Oh, my darling.

[Tom Griswold]

And today we are going to try huckleberry pie. Yes, Ms. Hooker is going to make us a huckleberry pie. I've never had one. Did you know that?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah, I forgot those today.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I have no even any idea what huckleberry tastes like.

[Josh Arnold]

You think it'll be a full crust or a lattice?

[Christy Lee]

I know because I saw it.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you've seen it.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Christy Lee]

It's a lattice. Just to let you know.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Christy Lee]

You think a huckleberry will taste like a BlackBerry?

[Chick McGee]

Maybe.

[Pat Godwin]

I think BlackBerry.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I do, too.

[Tom Griswold]

I was thinking blueberry. We're gonna find out.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, Maybe it's a mix chick.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Here's a note for you.

[Chick McGee]

Talk to me.

[Christy Lee]

Cute idea about the dog having a station dog on the show. Oh, yeah, we talked about that yesterday.

[Chick McGee]

That's Tom's he's at the vanguard of that.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

We used to have two station dogs up in Michigan.

[Christy Lee]

The great idea, he follows everyone into the bathroom and for some head pats. That was when it would be a little uncomfortable. Love you guys. Come to Wisconsin. Sarah.

[Chick McGee]

I don't. I don't matter.

[Christy Lee]

Do your dogs go to the bathroom with you?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Yeah. I'm not bothered by that.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, me either.

[Chick McGee]

I wish they'd spend more time with me in the bathroom room.

[Christy Lee]

You know, I think they've realized, oh, she's captive, you know, she's got to look at me and pet me and.

[Chick McGee]

And every now and then they'll just come in, sit, and then they'll just get up and walk away.

[Josh Arnold]

Do they do that when you take a shower? Do they sit in there?

[Christy Lee]

No, they don't mind does.

[Chick McGee]

But my golden. She. Every. Everything is. She's skittish, so the. The shower noise, she doesn't care.

[Tom Griswold]

Do they go in the shower afterward and lick the water up?

[Chick McGee]

No, they don't. No.

[Christy Lee]

You let your dogs in there to do that?

[Chick McGee]

Well, you. Your dogs are just. They're licking anyone.

[Josh Arnold]

Why, they're puking and crapping.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't allow them to just do that.

[Chick McGee]

Never mind.

[Christy Lee]

Why don't you shut the door?

[Chick McGee]

Has the word no ever been used in your home? My God.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yes.

[Christy Lee]

You don't have shower doors.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but I.

[Chick McGee]

How about a little nookie?

[Tom Griswold]

It gets so steamy in there, and I like to open the door to get the moisture in the air and can you see? The dog runs in there and starts.

[Chick McGee]

Tom's alabaster body glistening in the shower steam. The hairband as he's wiping off the door, wearing his significant other's hair bag. Boy, oh, boy.

[Tom Griswold]

It's called a shower.

[Josh Arnold]

Right? But you called it a hairbag one day.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, the.

[Chick McGee]

Do you know how insane you sounded? Well, I didn't know I was going right to bed.

[Tom Griswold]

Have you ever, in the course of your love life, written something on the steamy glass shower?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's fun.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I wrote.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, have you done that?

[Chick McGee]

I was on a streak. Where? With the comedy tour. I stayed in hotels and I. Josh will get this. I wrote red rum on all the. On all the mirror. So when they. When they steam up, if they haven't been cleaned, it'll. Red rumble.

[Tom Griswold]

Good gag.

[Chick McGee]

Pop right up.

[Tom Griswold]

That is rock solid.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Dear Bob and Tom show, longtime listener, Tuesday morning listening to your show. You guys played the sound mix. Oh, okay. This is the Sound mix. I don't know if you have this. Of Jessica Hooker snoring. And then they captured me yawning during a recording session. And they put that in there. And then of Josh's brother puking.

[Chick McGee]

Here it is. There it is.

[Tom Griswold]

I was going 80 miles an hour on Interstate 70. I had to. That's a big restrain from laughing anymore. Get over to the slow lane to get my composure. Well, thank you. That's from Spencer.

[Josh Arnold]

That is a symphony of sounds.

[Tom Griswold]

These are all real.

[Josh Arnold]

This is not mine. Mine is an impression of my brother John.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that's Hooker Sonori.

[Christy Lee]

It does sound like whale calls.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. Hooker Snore is serious. Does your brother barf a lot?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, no, but when we do, right. All the Arnold boys. We are incredibly loud pukers.

[Chick McGee]

Can you imagine? Well, see, Josh grew up with three brothers and he's somewhat normal. I know. You grew up with two brothers, right? And you're playing homoerotic games on vacation. You think it's running around naked with each.

[Josh Arnold]

I was a middle child. He's the baby. There might. There might be. He is the bed.

[Christy Lee]

And there was a big gap in age, wasn't there, between the.

[Tom Griswold]

They would find it really annoying when I would take my clip and put my towel around like a cape and become Bear Man.

[Chick McGee]

You're the only one that was running around naked.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I had to go. The attack of bear Man.

[Josh Arnold]

You made it sound like they were naked.

[Tom Griswold]

I might have.

[Chick McGee]

You led us to believe that they were naked.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no, no. They have much more dignity now.

[Chick McGee]

And couple that with. While they were on the toilet, you would urinate between their. As they're seated there only once.

[Tom Griswold]

And that was just John. He was seated in the toilet. I walked in and he's the nice one. I don't know what came over me, but I peed between his legs. And he. Of course, he. That immobilized him.

[Chick McGee]

Which one's the tall one? Jim.

[Tom Griswold]

But he.

[Josh Arnold]

I hope you ran.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, he just. He was able to contemplate how he was going to pound me as soon as he finished. What a great moment. I'd forgotten about that. Let's see now. You got anything else over there?

[Chick McGee]

Dear Bob at Tom show. Well, we have a letter for Josh. Sweet, saucy Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

It says I can be saucy and sweet.

[Chick McGee]

This is from Lauren. I'm writing to talk to you about chicken legs. I am in no way implying, insinuating that these are your legs. You know how you.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, right, right.

[Chick McGee]

Chicken skinny legs. Can you make good Chicken or anything else without marinating it. Oh, sure. Of course you can. But you're limiting yourself if you're not marinating. This touched off a firestorm. Tom. Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

I've never received more hate mail.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

I went home and marinated that day.

[Tom Griswold]

Josh is anti marinade.

[Chick McGee]

There. There's the. The chicken marinating in a mustard marinade. Bacon wrapped. She says. Sure. Bacon wrapped drumsticks will always be good, but my mustard marinade elevates these drumsticks to something better than sex.

[Josh Arnold]

Bacon wrapped.

[Jess Hooker]

Who had.

[Josh Arnold]

Who made those?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you got a photograph. They're being marinated right there. You can see them.

[Chick McGee]

It's a lot like saying you can enjoy sex in missionary if you know what you're doing. And of course you can, but that's just a teeny, tiny part of the menu. Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Huh?

[Tom Griswold]

And as a thorough and generous lover, perhaps it's time you applied that to your chicken.

[Josh Arnold]

No. No, I will never marinate.

[Christy Lee]

So you don't marinate and bake?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, gosh. No, no, no, no. What are you standing on?

[Tom Griswold]

Rubs.

[Josh Arnold]

Rubs are okay? Yeah. Rubs and sauce afterwards. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Sounds kind of sexy. Rubs and sauce.

[Christy Lee]

But you have to rub before you grill. Right?

[Tom Griswold]

I gotta rub.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, you can even sauce before you grill.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, then why can't you marinate before you grill?

[Josh Arnold]

Because it's. What it is, is. It's an excuse for people who don't know how to cook chicken right. And keep it juicy. The marinade overnight soaks into the meat. That's the difference.

[Tom Griswold]

That's the idea.

[Josh Arnold]

I know. Because they don't know how to cook chicken. Right. Right. If you want. No, it's not about flavor. Because if it were, you would cook the chicken correctly and then just dunk it into wishbone Italian dressing. That's your flavor that we're having.

[Tom Griswold]

We're not going to win this.

[Josh Arnold]

No. Well, it's because you can't. You cannot fight this sort of logic.

[Christy Lee]

And I only marinated for two hours.

[Chick McGee]

You don't marinate overnight.

[Christy Lee]

I didn't.

[Chick McGee]

Well, then why the hell you marinate?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

A third of the job.

[Josh Arnold]

Enough. He's all mad about it.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know how this started.

[Tom Griswold]

We have. We had a guest guest yesterday. Drew Powell was in here.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And Cliff enjoyed our discussions with him. And he said just by chance, he was watching the movie the Unbreakable Boy, and much to his surprise, Drew Powell is one of the stars.

[Josh Arnold]

Much to a surprise. You mean Drew. You know, he only came in three times and Pushed that movie.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe that guy missed the show because he was busy. Busy marinating his

[Christy Lee]

spatchcock chicken.

[Tom Griswold]

Listen, by the way, doesn't the word spatchcock sound like some motorcycle injury? Well, I'm afraid he's got the spatchcock injury.

[Chick McGee]

We gotta come up.

[Tom Griswold]

Headlight went right through his balls.

[Chick McGee]

We gotta come up with a. A word for when you're watching something and Drew. Drew Powell pops up in it.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, like Drew rolled.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, something like that. He's in Ray Donovan and he's in Southland, a cop show I'm watching.

[Tom Griswold]

He's in another pit.

[Chick McGee]

He's in the. I haven't heard about that.

[Josh Arnold]

You know what?

[Chick McGee]

He.

[Josh Arnold]

He's a good actor.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, if you happen to be watching something random and he's in it, do you immediately text him? Oh, gosh, no, I do.

[Chick McGee]

No, of course.

[Tom Griswold]

Especially with the time zone difference. Hey.

[Chick McGee]

Morning.

[Tom Griswold]

We were talking to Drew. He's going to be back doing some cool stuff, and he's in the current. What's the name of 101 crime?

Yeah. She's just got the. What? Emory Emmy.

[Chick McGee]

Fulfilled. Fulfilled. Alyssa Liu won the gold for women in figure skating. You know, they make you. They make figures at one part during the figure skating. That's where that term they. They do eights, and they. They'll do a six, and they got to do a 32.

It's a Hyundai. Which is perfect, because I want to remind everybody about the Hyundai, the Palisade hybrid. Hyundai. It's got some pretty cool stuff going on. And they've got their own motto, which is kind of cool. Their motto is no cleats on the seats. That means that because there's a way back seat place the. You can get, what, seven folks in there? Yep. To get to the way back, you don't have to crawl over the back seat because they've got captain's chairs for back seats, which is really cool because the kids can sit back there and go, I am your captain. Look at me now. I am the captain. It's the Hyundai. The Hyundai Palisade hybrid. And it gets a staggering. What do they call it? EPA estimate of some 619 miles of range and great gas mileage.

What you supposed to.

[Josh Arnold]

Because we don't know if they'd have the kid.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that kid. That kid's still around. You know, it's up to them.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. McCray had a brilliant bit about.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. How would. How would that kid feel? Do we have that?

[Josh Arnold]

Like that.

[Tom Griswold]

That's hilarious in its unfortunate way. It is.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, yeah. No, yeah. It's.

[Tom Griswold]

It's.

[Josh Arnold]

It's about moms and kids. It's not more so than it is.

[Chick McGee]

Here's a video, I believe, of Lake Tahoe where a gentleman is. They've gotten like, I don't know, eight feet of snow in the last. Since Monday.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it's as.

[Chick McGee]

It's as deep as his chest. And there are some places he's walking through where it's pretty solid up to his waist. His.

[Tom Griswold]

Wherever he walks, he's literally walking through. It looks like he's in a cave.

[Josh Arnold]

It's cavernous. Boy.

[Tom Griswold]

Man, oh, man. Now, unfortunately, the. They need a lot of snow in places like Colorado and Utah for the. To melt for the summers. There's going to probably be some water issues, but they're getting a lot in some places and none. None in other places. We were talking off the air about something and I just. You know how sometimes you stumble around when you're googling stuff?

[Josh Arnold]

I stumble for you.

[Chick McGee]

I stumble for you.

[Tom Griswold]

You know the actor William Daniels?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Great voice.

[Chick McGee]

He. The voice of Kit on Knight rider.

[Tom Griswold]

He is 98 years old.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And looking great, but wow.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know. Looking great.

[Josh Arnold]

We might be surprised. Who knows? But I. Last time I saw him was on King of Queens. He and Jerry Stiller had a bit of a rivalry.

[Chick McGee]

I think his wife's still alive, too. She was on scene elsewhere. Huh?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, sorry. It was the Carlet.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. He was on what, a famous medical show.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I remember him saying elsewhere.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So anyway, totally off topic. We were just talking.

[Josh Arnold]

He was an interesting actor talking off

[Tom Griswold]

the air about a bunch of. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Bonnie Bartlett. He's still married to her and she's still alive.

[Tom Griswold]

It'd be weird if he was married to her and she was dead. Although probably allowable today's.

[Christy Lee]

She's 96, by the way.

[Chick McGee]

Really? Yeah. That's. That's three.

[Tom Griswold]

I know. We're gonna get four. I'm so excited about something coming up.

[Pat Godwin]

I can.

[Tom Griswold]

I can barely contain myself. I see you've got your guitar out and.

[Chick McGee]

Get your guitar out instead of sitting there.

[Tom Griswold]

We were getting into a. A pretty negative discussion about marinating and chicken. This all started because years ago, I made a very simple chicken for Chick Magee. And he. And he.

[Chick McGee]

He actually rave about it.

[Tom Griswold]

He still raves about. It was a very simple recipe.

[Chick McGee]

So good.

[Tom Griswold]

You just take. I prefer chicken thighs, frankly.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, chicken.

[Tom Griswold]

You put it in a. In a. What do you call, plastic bag, throw in whatever you want with marinade. Or you can even go as simple as. What's the. What's wishbone? Italian dressing. Leave it in the fridge overnight, grill it the next day. It's great. But we got into a huge argument about marinating Josh's anti marinade.

[Josh Arnold]

That's right.

[Chick McGee]

Actually, it's getting so serious now online that we. I need to step in here and say, Josh is 98% kidding. So calm the f down.

[Josh Arnold]

The day that I. When I first was doing it and we got. So. I got so much hate mail about it, but in my head, you guys know me. I went, oh, I'm gonna have to do that again.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, you pushed the button. The most serious hate mail we've ever gotten.

[Christy Lee]

I know.

[Tom Griswold]

What's that Was about a joke song about cats.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Cat lovers will get a little.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, it was.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. And I'm a cat lover. But, you know, I mean, you could

[Tom Griswold]

have done a joke about a children's school bus on fire and get a couple letters. If there's a cat in there, the cat people, they must have, like a Facebook thing where they go write these a holes a letter.

[Josh Arnold]

They might.

[Tom Griswold]

I was just thinking about my first cat the other day. I got a letter from my old college roommate. He wanted to remember. Remember Remembering my first little cat.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, my God.

[Chick McGee]

What a mind numbingly dry, boring letter that has to be.

[Tom Griswold]

No, he had sent me a photograph of your cat. No, no, he was.

[Chick McGee]

He's obsessed with you, obviously.

[Tom Griswold]

No, he was visiting my other college roommate in San Francisco and he sent a picture.

[Chick McGee]

He didn't invite you, huh?

[Tom Griswold]

Standing in the streets of San Francisco. So I was walking my dogs and I stopped two ladies walking the other way and I said, can you take a picture of me with my dogs? This was yesterday. It's a good picture.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I bet.

[Tom Griswold]

Would you like to see it?

[Josh Arnold]

Throw it on the aura.

[Chick McGee]

I think it's nice that you're not only boring at work, you're boring at home, too.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I just stopped these two ladies today. Hey, would you do me a favor? My roommate just sent me a picture of himself. They were very nice about it.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I'm sure.

[Christy Lee]

God, play your song.

[Josh Arnold]

They gotta talk to a handsome man.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

Josh, how do you feel about Beer can chicken? My family's favorite. Is that a marinade?

[Josh Arnold]

That does not count as marinade.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Cause I love that.

[Pat Godwin]

You wanna hear a little song about that? Please. I was afraid to play it. I like beer can chicken More pasta with vodka sauce I like a Jack Daniels rock my ribs in a Marsala demi glace I like my brats cooked in beer brats and my Coca van with extra wine Bananas foster loaded with rum and I'm feeling fine but some mornings are a little rough I like to cut out the middle man I'll have some beer can chicken hold a chicken Hand me the can,

[Tom Griswold]

Patty G. Thank you very much, Pat Godwin.

[Christy Lee]

Love it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, what's a man? Oh, once again, sorry. Pat Godwin. Part of a special benefit project. This is really cool. For St. Paul's boys basketball in Norwalk, Ohio. That's coming up tomorrow night. Tickets available at the door. So it's a good cause and a great show. Go see Patty G live and in person. And we're a few days away from Pat's dry bar special coming out.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, that's tomorrow, too.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, it is tomorrow?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You didn't tell me.

[Josh Arnold]

Excellent.

[Pat Godwin]

I did. 21st is tomorrow.

[Tom Griswold]

What did you tell me?

[Pat Godwin]

I told you three times.

[Tom Griswold]

But it's today.

[Chick McGee]

It's February.

[Pat Godwin]

Pies are cooking.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, well, we'll be getting to all these things. We're.

[Chick McGee]

We're talking with you. I. I know you don't participate in conversation, but.

[Tom Griswold]

Because I'm not listening. I know we are in the O'Reilly Auto Part Studios this is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Announcer]

Hoosier history, baby. Indiana goes undefeated and wins the national championship. Own the limited edition championship football. Call 800-345-2868. Now that's 800-345-2868. When they're gone, they're gone. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. We are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. There's Christy Lee.

[Christy Lee]

Hey, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

She's over there at the news desk. There's Pat Godwin.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, man. There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

I have a coffee table book idea, but I don't know that it's for. I think it's a small market.

[Chick McGee]

You are in among friends.

[Tom Griswold]

One of my favorite topics, coffee table.

[Chick McGee]

Coffee table.

[Tom Griswold]

What have you got?

[Chick McGee]

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

[Tom Griswold]

Hello. I'm interested in Josh's coffee table idea.

[Josh Arnold]

Thank you. Fishing dogs. So every now and again when I'm out fishing, I'll see guys in their bass boats and they'll have their dog with them.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

So dogs in boats, do they like

[Christy Lee]

to sit in the front and like.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, sometimes they'll chill in one of the seats or in the stern or they'll be. Because the guy's usually fishing up front and they kind of don't. But as soon as the guy will get a bite and is reeling it in, that dog is right there, almost as if it's going to help retrieve it.

[Christy Lee]

Really?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah. It's always fun. Oh, dude, I love it.

[Chick McGee]

You know what Tom's big idea for a coffee table book was? And I can't believe I'm saying this, do you remember I've had several put cameos, famous actors in. In movies.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, That's a fun one.

[Chick McGee]

The still shots of.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I like it when actors play themselves and movies.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's fun, too. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. These are all great ideas.

[Chick McGee]

You know, Staying Alive, which is Saturday Night, Saturday Night Fever sequel, I think

[Tom Griswold]

over Sylvester Stallone's Walking down the Street,

[Chick McGee]

Travolta bumps into Stallone, didn't he? Stallone directed that.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That was not a great movie.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a shame. But that's a fun. Yeah. Bumps into the guy who directed the movie.

[Pat Godwin]

That's a cool cameo.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. But they don't say any. Just they just.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

No. Oh. It kind of gives them a look

[Christy Lee]

like, did Hitchcock start that trend?

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe with the directors?

[Tom Griswold]

Hitchcock's. There's a. Either a photograph or he's in them. Right. The famous one is on the. On the boat. He's looking at. The guy's looking at a newspaper and lifeboat. There's a picture of Hitchcock.

[Chick McGee]

I remember that. It was an ad for weight loss. And he. He's the before picture. Yeah. Now I love my Hitchcock.

[Tom Griswold]

All right, we got him. Now we have to move forward here.

[Chick McGee]

This just in. Dear Bob and Tom show. I hope you've seen this. It's called Hobby Motocrossing. You've been to a. If you've been to a motocross race.

[Tom Griswold]

Sure, sure.

[Chick McGee]

Would you care to describe that? What the motocross race is? All right, well, this is.

[Tom Griswold]

You're pretty much.

[Christy Lee]

You mean a regular motocross?

[Chick McGee]

Yep, yep. Regular motocross race.

[Christy Lee]

Okay, you got.

[Josh Arnold]

Right now we see guys holding disembodied, if you will, handlebars. That's exactly wearing what they look like. VR goggles.

[Chick McGee]

That's right. Full scale competitions are being held. This one in Hungary.

[Josh Arnold]

So they run.

[Chick McGee]

They are running with.

[Josh Arnold]

As if they're on motorbikes.

[Chick McGee]

They're holding handlebars, wearing goggles. No, motorcycles. Look at them go.

[Josh Arnold]

And it's your traditional motocross track.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. They're on. And ramps and tires. Yeah, that would be tough.

[Josh Arnold]

Nobody's fallen yet. That's pretty impressive.

[Chick McGee]

I know he's way out in front

[Josh Arnold]

because if you've ever worn VR goggles and playing a game, it's easy to fall, or at least it is for me.

[Tom Griswold]

They're getting some exercise, which is probably better than what most people are doing wearing their VR goggles. I'm gonna guess there's a huge crowd there.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm gonna guess that's something that happens before the actual motocross.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, oh, like halftime show.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Yeah. That can't be the main event.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I would find myself leaving.

[Christy Lee]

Looks like the fumes aren't bad.

[Tom Griswold]

Looks like they're having some fun.

[Chick McGee]

You wouldn't stay there and watch that, huh?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I. Josh is right there. That's obviously a real motocross. And then that's just a fun thing. They must grab a bunch of people.

[Josh Arnold]

Have you used virtual reality goggles, Tom? Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

There are some things, and I did at the Children's Museum, and it's a thing where you. You're walking across a rail that's about 2 inches off the ground.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, dude.

[Tom Griswold]

But it makes you look like you're way up high.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

It's terrifying.

[Josh Arnold]

You break a sweat. It's really scary. Nerves.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. It's very, very interesting. Has that taken off in the world of pornography.

[Josh Arnold]

It has. Oh, yeah, it has. I've never. I've never tried it. In fact, I only know one person who has.

[Christy Lee]

Do you own VR?

[Josh Arnold]

No, I don't. Because that's why I would just plug into the Internet and that would be 18 hours of my day.

[Pat Godwin]

Jimmy.

[Josh Arnold]

It would be Wally. I'd be one of those guys.

[Chick McGee]

You know, I have a. I have a PlayStation in the box. Somebody got it for me and I. I'm. There's no way I'm unwrap. I would never show up for work.

[Josh Arnold]

I know.

[Chick McGee]

I'd just be there.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

No way, man.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, well, now we have to check in with the sporting scene. The Olympics up and running.

[Chick McGee]

United States won their third Olympic gold medal in women's hockey. Megan Keller backhanded shot 407 into overtime. And the Americans beat Canada the eighth straight time, 2 to 1.

[Josh Arnold]

So we've got to be leading the gold medal count now in the Olympics because we have like 20 something gold medals that we got yesterday.

[Chick McGee]

That's. That's not the case. I don't believe. Leave. What do they count?

[Christy Lee]

All the team gold or just.

[Josh Arnold]

It's just one medal in the count.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, you're counting each individual. Yes. Norway is number one with 16 gold, 34 medals overall. Well, the United States would have won 16. Yeah, that's how exactly. United States has nine gold, 27 medals overall. And Italy is third, also nine gold and 26 overall.

[Christy Lee]

Technically, you are correct, sir.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know why. It's not each individual player.

[Tom Griswold]

So you're saying since each player on the team gets a medal, that's.

[Josh Arnold]

That's the gold medal count?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, gotcha.

[Christy Lee]

They don't share one medal.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, they each got one. Very good, very good, very good.

[Chick McGee]

Alyssa Lou won Olympic gold for the US and women's figure skating. That's right. The Blade Angels came through. She won the gold.

[Josh Arnold]

Alyssa Lou's getting out tonight.

[Chick McGee]

That ends a 24 year drought. Remember that? The. The lady skating the. They would be America's sweetheart, like Dorothy Hamill.

[Tom Griswold]

They interviewed Dorothy the other night, was great.

[Chick McGee]

And now remember, what's green and skates backwards?

[Tom Griswold]

Peggy Flem.

[Chick McGee]

Peggy Flem. Remember Peggy Fleming? Lou delivered a near flawless free skate. Oh, I could see that. I would have given her a 10 or a 5 or whatever they're handed out. She beat Kaori Sakamoto and Ami Nakai of Japan also.

[Josh Arnold]

Very good. They're incredible.

[Chick McGee]

She returned to the sport after stepping away following Beijing. She posted a career. Career best 226.79.

[Josh Arnold]

You wanted to say breast because she has boobs. Well, you could behave yourself.

[Chick McGee]

I'm sitting here reading this story and thinking about only her breasts really, as they're skating, skating across the ice. Yeah, I don't want to mar the broadcast with an off hand.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know about, you know, Quasimodo's.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, her breasts are gigantic. Did you see her bros?

[Josh Arnold]

She was gorgeous. I don't know where Quasi.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know if people in Indiana have any idea how much much people in Chicago hate people from Indiana, but is that true? Everybody's going to find out pretty soon. The latest chapter in the Bears stadium saga unfolded. Indiana house panel unanimously approved legislation that lays out a financing framework for the Bears to move to Hammond, Indiana and become the Indiana Bears. I don't think they'll be the Indian, but Chicago Bears. Chicago land still be the Bears, but they're.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, let me look at, at the New York Giants.

[Chick McGee]

Many, many people have play in New York. They have said either stay in Chicago or sell the team.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, who gets the tax revenue there or who gets the Bears or.

[Chick McGee]

Well, I know. And you.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, the idea would be there'd be. The state of Indiana would fork over, sacrifice a lot of taxes, etc. In order to get the building put.

[Chick McGee]

If you play in California, don't you pay.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, you mean the state for the players? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

When you do a gig in California, you pay state tax, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, that's the.

[Chick McGee]

I'm sure that's all. That's all in order.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But I think the players kind of get screwed though, because if you're in an NFL team, how many games do you play a year?

[Chick McGee]

17.

[Tom Griswold]

So. But if you.

[Chick McGee]

A trick question.

[Tom Griswold]

No, but if you play in the state of New York, you have to play. You. Excuse me, you have to pay New York state income tax.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

For what is 1/17 of your income or something? Shouldn't it just be for the one day?

[Josh Arnold]

It should, yeah. It should not be.

[Tom Griswold]

You're only, you're only working in New York one day.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Chick McGee]

Gotta be a way around this.

[Josh Arnold]

They must figure. They must have gotten that figured out.

[Tom Griswold]

Couldn't you just have tell you could technically get paid daily.

[Chick McGee]

Well, you know that by game that enters into the free agent conversation, which is coming up here in the NFL. Players want to go to, you know, Texas or Florida. No state tax. That's. That's a big damn deal.

[Josh Arnold]

But if it moves to Indiana, Illinois loses the revenue that, that Team generates

[Chick McGee]

and they're saying they're going to lose the Bears fans, too. They're not coming to Indiana to watch the Chicago Bears.

[Josh Arnold]

That would really shock me. But.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but I mean, again, where do the. Where do the New York Giants play?

[Chick McGee]

Meadowlands.

[Tom Griswold]

Where do the jets play?

[Josh Arnold]

No, sure. It's not on. It's not unheard of. It's just.

[Tom Griswold]

And we just found. I was. I didn't realize the Kansas City Chiefs, they've been playing in Missouri all this time.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, yeah, that's why they're not the Kansas Chiefs.

[Tom Griswold]

But not anymore.

[Chick McGee]

Right? Did you not know that was Kansas City, Missouri all this time?

[Tom Griswold]

I never really put it together. I've been there, of course, but. Right.

[Josh Arnold]

I think they are moving over into the Kansas side.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, they are.

[Chick McGee]

That's the plan anyway. Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. This is interesting. You can just go from state to state without showing your papers.

[Josh Arnold]

I know, it's. It's really disgusting, isn't it?

[Chick McGee]

Right. Right. Now, that's the way it is. Yes. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

There may be some states who succeed,

[Tom Griswold]

but, I mean, remember reading about people walking into LA Dodger games or in San Francisco stuff and getting the. Almost getting killed?

[Josh Arnold]

Sure.

[Tom Griswold]

People take it a little too seriously.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean. Yeah. If you walk into a Dodger stadium wearing an opposing team's jersey, Godspeed.

[Tom Griswold]

I understand. If you walk into any venue in St. Louis, you're risking your life.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Literally. Well, at least maybe not your life, but your car and the belongings in it.

[Tom Griswold]

Would you say your brothers are somewhat hesitant to go to the Cardinal games?

[Josh Arnold]

Right, Right. It's like you want to go to the Cardinals game. You might as well just say you want your car broken into. Yeah, man. Let's go see if they win.

[Chick McGee]

Let's see

[Tom Griswold]

now. We have more sporting news coming up.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, we do.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm very excited about it. We also have male birth control in the news. That also involves.

[Chick McGee]

And it's not her back. Right.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you supposed to say. Or his. Which confuses the issue to a degree. That would be a different story.

[Chick McGee]

Whatever, man.

[Josh Arnold]

No, gay sex is birth control. You understand that, right?

[Tom Griswold]

It's not.

[Chick McGee]

I don't. I don't know what you're.

[Tom Griswold]

What you're saying, but although there might be a Love is variation, we should get into some really tactical stuff. But you know what?

[Christy Lee]

Let's.

[Josh Arnold]

When we come back, let's really do a deep dive.

[Tom Griswold]

We'll do a deep dive into that because we haven't angered enough people.

[Chick McGee]

Wait a minute. Hang on. All right, Here we Go.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. I'm looking right behind Josh. That's a great picture. Let me see here. There's a picture of me standing at Lodge Pole on Vale in the summertime. I was just skiing there last week. Then there's a nice picture. Is that Ms. Hooker?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a great picture of her. Coffee and what am I. What I'm looking at? Oh, just shifted again. There's a picture of two of my girls wearing the. The beautiful Bob and Tom Christmas T shirts. The point is that photograph over there.

[Chick McGee]

Just stand still.

[Tom Griswold]

Just stand still. The photograph keeps moving around because it's in an aura frame. I love this product. And this. That happens to be the Carver matte frame. It's a beautiful black frame. It's about the size of a 8 by 10 photography. And you load it electronically and it's. What's interesting about it is that was loaded by me. Part of it anyway. I was home. That frame was here. It's all done through the magic of electricity. Chick, you can try to explain this to people. I don't understand how.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, no. I think it's doing a fine job. It made more of an impression on you, the Aura Frame people, then I could ever explain.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, the aura frame is rated number one by wire cutter and they're very picky, so that tells you how cool it is. And. Oh, look, there's a picture of. There's a picture of my doggy. That's Mr. Fletcher. He's got his new diet. You know, hamburger, no lettuce, no tomato.

[Chick McGee]

The aura Frame, just a walking boar.

[Tom Griswold]

We have. We have an opportunity for you to save some serious cash on your Aura frame. Auraframes.com you can knock off 35 bucks from the price if you just use my name.

[Christy Lee]

Hello, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

There's Pat Godwin.

[Pat Godwin]

Hello, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold. Hi. Ace Cosby's here. Hi. Hello. I'm Chick McGee and True Tale from life with Tom. Oh, I just want to know how, how many of you have encountered this. You're in the hallway here. Here's my first mistake. I engaged him in conversation. Oh, I should never, I should never do that. And I, I, I was telling him a story about, well, you know, where you would get a shirt like this. And then he goes, oh, wait a minute, you know, I, I, and then he goes on with his story. And then I find myself saying, yeah, yeah, I was done. And I walk away. No, no, that's.

[Tom Griswold]

How many times. Is that what happened?

[Chick McGee]

How many times did that happen to you? You guys, I'm sure it has. Yes, he, he, he does.

[Tom Griswold]

He was trying to tell me about something that I was aware of because Christy had told me about it yesterday. Now the larger point is it's time for another song from Patty.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I was done.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I've taken a break from sports.

[Christy Lee]

What song do you want Pat to do? Pull his string?

[Chick McGee]

Can you put me, can you put music to this? USA hey, hey, USA hey, hey. Okay, that's beautiful.

[Tom Griswold]

You could add that to the snoring.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know if, if that's possible.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, that needs work.

[Chick McGee]

That needs a little flushing out.

[Tom Griswold]

They need to get the, get the editors in here. Pat, I, I know you did a great new song. It's my favorite of yours of late. It's an original Pat Godwin song, and it's called Deny. I believe this is based on a concept, if you will, from Chick Magee from years before.

[Chick McGee]

Just common sense.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. This involves the cheating. The cheating folks.

[Christy Lee]

I don't know if I've heard this.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, this is, did you. This is my new favorite.

[Pat Godwin]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Here's the thing. Remember what Chris Rock said, If you cheat, you're gonna get caught. Just plain and simple. Go ahead.

[Pat Godwin]

It's called Deny, Deny, Deny.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a sing along. And Christy, I think you're hear the beauty of this song is right away, you know where how to sing it.

[Pat Godwin]

Okay, you want to hear that part. That part first, the sing along. It goes like this. Deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny. There you go.

[Josh Arnold]

So 3, 4, 2.

[Christy Lee]

Gotcha.

[Pat Godwin]

If you want to be a cheater, go out of state to meet her. No voicemails, think before you send. Don't film your lovemaking. Don't text your picture taking. Don't make a tryst a Facebook friend. Clear your history, control, alt, delete. Use the hotel's computer on the slide. And if you get asked, just stand there aghast. And deny, deny, deny.

[Chick McGee]

Here we go.

[Pat Godwin]

Deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny. The picture's incriminating. You and her forticating. Just tell your wife it's photoshopped.

[Josh Arnold]

Honey, that's photoshopped.

[Pat Godwin]

If her friend saw you, banger, blame it on a doppelganger. That wasn't me there in the park.

[Chick McGee]

That's not me.

[Pat Godwin]

You get caught red handed kissing someone else else, just say it was mouth to mouth or she would die.

[Josh Arnold]

I saved your life, baby.

[Pat Godwin]

If you're at the hospital and your mistress shows up, deny, deny, deny.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know that.

[Pat Godwin]

And of course don't use the US Mail. Never leave a paper trail. Check your clothes for long blonde hairs. Avoid all well lit places and old familiar faces. Make sure she takes her underwear.

[Chick McGee]

I think these are yours.

[Pat Godwin]

Don't go to sporting events that have a jumbo screen.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, no.

[Pat Godwin]

She confronts you, blame it on AI.

[Josh Arnold]

It's fake.

[Pat Godwin]

Take a long hot shower. A Silkwood shower. Bring home flowers and an eye.

[Chick McGee]

Deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that is beautiful.

[Christy Lee]

That's gotta be so hard to cheat these days.

[Pat Godwin]

No kidding.

[Christy Lee]

Look at all that work. Just in that song.

[Josh Arnold]

It doesn't seem worth it.

[Christy Lee]

No, it's not.

[Tom Griswold]

I particularly like the doppelganger line.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, yes, because it rhymes with banger. Which.

[Tom Griswold]

The fact that the doppelganger is doing her in the park.

[Christy Lee]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

That. That might also be a bad idea. If you are. You got caught in the park?

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah, a long time ago. A long time ago. If anyone's listening.

[Tom Griswold]

During the day. During the day?

[Pat Godwin]

No, no. It was after a gig. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's fun. The park is a classic place.

[Tom Griswold]

Were you vertical or horizontal?

[Pat Godwin]

I was by a tree. That was the issue Right there. By the tree century.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you concerned about grass stains?

[Pat Godwin]

Well, I didn't realize it was cut grass, so I came home with the grass on my ass.

[Chick McGee]

For those of you who are wondering if Tom's romantic, you heard what he said. About an interlude in a park. Aren't you worried about grass stain? You are really something, you know that? You like ski jumping, Tom?

[Tom Griswold]

I. I just love the Winter games. Oh, thanks.

[Chick McGee]

As is often the case, there's lots of. A lot of behind the scenes that goes into making the ski jump come off without a hitch. Did you know they use leaf blowers on the hill to make. So there's no debris on the. Where the skiers take the ramp down. Look there. There they are.

[Josh Arnold]

Team.

[Chick McGee]

There's a whole team of men. I'm going to say like 30. 30 leaf blowers out there to make sure it's clean. There goes the skier. And now here comes the leaf blowers again.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, they do it each time.

[Chick McGee]

They're blowing. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And they're all wearing. They're wearing uniforms. It's pretty funny.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. That must be they.

[Christy Lee]

And they're choreographed.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Volunteers.

[Tom Griswold]

It looks like a giant spider leg.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Well, apparently there was some controversy yesterday. One of the leaf blowers, one of the ski jumpers almost hit a leaf blower.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, man.

[Chick McGee]

Which would have slowed because they're going right away and they say they're going 60 miles an hour down that hill.

[Tom Griswold]

And then they go off too off the edge.

[Chick McGee]

Seems way too fast.

[Tom Griswold]

Scary.

[Chick McGee]

Major League Baseball has announced that it has going to turn the baseball orange. No, I'm kidding.

[Josh Arnold]

This is big news, right?

[Chick McGee]

They have an official soft drink.

[Tom Griswold]

Really? Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

This is big news. It's Mountain Dew Baja Blast.

[Tom Griswold]

Now I had to look this up.

[Chick McGee]

A tropical lime flavored. A ballpark Baja Blast nationwide as the official soft drink sponsor.

[Josh Arnold]

It's a gamer drink.

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy Lee]

They've been selling it at Taco Bell for 20 years. Ten years.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

It. Well, I found out roll out get a Baja for a blast program that will turn long distance home runs into product reward.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, okay.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

But it was. You're right. It was officially when it came out, it was exclusive actually to Taco Bell. Yeah, I've. I've never had a Baja Bless. Neither have I. I am not a Mountain Dew drinker.

[Christy Lee]

I'm sure you haven't had them.

[Tom Griswold]

I know we have.

[Christy Lee]

How about your kids have.

[Tom Griswold]

We have a lot of Mountain Dew drinkers in the building.

[Chick McGee]

How about that Taco Bell? Yeah. I will have the left side of the menu.

[Christy Lee]

But interest.

[Tom Griswold]

I was concerned because I know Mountain Dew is very heavy in caffeine. Baja Blast is not. It says it's described as a moderate amounts of caffeine. A typical 12 ounce serving has about 54 milligrams of caffeine. Where.

[Josh Arnold]

Which is nine cups of coffee.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a night. There's a 98. Yeah. In a cup of coffee and an eight ounce cup of coffee. So they're very good, but. And they're changing the lyrics to that song.

[Christy Lee]

What song?

[Tom Griswold]

Buy me some peanuts and Baja Blast. I just think it's kind of sacrilegious, frankly. Are you gonna change what you drink just because it's a Major League Baseball official drink?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Christy Lee]

Do you think they're doing this to try to lure in younger audience? Because Baja Blast is a younger person?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, MLB is doing it because Mountain Dew had the highest bid.

[Chick McGee]

Ah.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, that's how this works.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Follow the money. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And apparently it's a good mixer with vodka, I have been told.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Christy Lee]

The Taco Bell Cantinas, that's what they mix with vodka there when you go there.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Ah. So you can get yourself a mountain DUI after the game.

[Chick McGee]

A Soft Taco supreme and a Baja Blast with a half vodka. Oh, that'll get you there. Next thing you know, you're watching Curly for nine hours. And speaking of the Olympics.

[Tom Griswold]

Olympics.

[Chick McGee]

Gold. Trading gold, Jerry. Gold. About $5,000 an ounce right now. Olympic gold medals are worth, Tom. 2,300 to $2,500ametal and silver prices also surged about, oh, 180% since Paris, lifting the value of silver medals to around fourteen hundred dollars.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

And I don't know if they've gotten the problem fixed with the metals where the ribbon was coming off the back of them. And some of them had the backs fall off. Off.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Other metals. What the hell's the deal with that?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

Do you remember the New York Mets?

[Tom Griswold]

Sure.

[Chick McGee]

Sure you do.

[Josh Arnold]

Metropolitans.

[Chick McGee]

That's right. Meet the Mets. Greet the Mets, everybody. Have you met the Mets? They're gonna have a Bobby Valentine disguise night.

[Josh Arnold]

That's fun.

[Chick McGee]

And hand out 15,000 fake mustache glasses. Now, if you're unaware of the Bobby Valentine disguise night, he was thrown out of a game and he ended up going back into the dugout, standing in the back in a pair of sunglasses and a fake mustache. And that is an actual photo of the incident in question.

[Tom Griswold]

So funny.

[Josh Arnold]

I love it. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

The promotion inspired by what the former manager. As you can see there, he was hidden in the dugout. He thought he wouldn't be recognized with the mustache and the sunglasses.

[Tom Griswold]

He got caught, though.

[Chick McGee]

He did get caught.

[Josh Arnold]

There was a time where you wouldn't. No. Social media ruined that whole thing.

[Chick McGee]

It sure did. Mr. Valentine told the AP I'm going to be there. Bobby Valentine is still living among us. I'll be there. I can't wait.

[Tom Griswold]

This is the Mets. The Yankees are doing Jeffrey Epstein night.

[Josh Arnold]

Is that right?

[Tom Griswold]

And they're gonna give. They're gonna give everybody a black sharpie so they can redact various players from the program. And then you get a Prince Andrew bobblehead.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, that'll be nice.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm hovering over an underage woman.

[Chick McGee]

That's. That's an elaborate, by my account, elaborate bobblehead.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I'm sorry. It was my fault. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

I keep. Yeah, that.

[Tom Griswold]

Keep forgetting.

[Chick McGee]

That makes.

[Tom Griswold]

Now for those who don't know, Bobby Valentine will be Groucho night.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah, they'll just have fun with that.

[Chick McGee]

Say the secret word and the doc will come down. Stupid world record. Is that loud? That seems loud.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

A group of. A group of adventurers have broken the Guinness World record for the highest slack line walk over a waterfall.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, okay, this is terrifying.

[Josh Arnold]

Now people have done this over Niagara Falls before.

[Chick McGee]

Is that right?

[Josh Arnold]

At least the river. But right before it falls.

[Chick McGee]

Isn't that like 13 miles across, something like that?

[Josh Arnold]

It is, I think. 28.

[Tom Griswold]

28.

[Chick McGee]

Are they attached to it?

[Tom Griswold]

Are they.

[Chick McGee]

No, they weren't. No, they're levitating.

[Josh Arnold]

But in this case. What. What waterfall is this?

[Chick McGee]

Lucas Irmler.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, sure. The Irmler falls.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, this is the Antonia Rude Passel. Jens Dickey. Dick Jens. Maybe the E. Silent Carl Schrader and Valentin Rapp, all from Germany. Oh, and Raphael Britti from Brazil broke the record. Together they crossed a 485 foot 6 inch high line at the height of. Oh, Angel Falls. These are badass. Tom. 3,307ft off the ground across Angel Falls in Venezuela.

[Tom Griswold]

Man, there's a. Oh my God. It's no way. It's absolutely terrifying.

[Josh Arnold]

This person's doing some tricks squatting down.

[Chick McGee]

He is attached though.

[Tom Griswold]

If you.

[Josh Arnold]

It's not a lady.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a tether line.

[Christy Lee]

Like a lady.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's a. That's a.

[Josh Arnold]

Got a broad there.

[Tom Griswold]

Who knows these days those are the most spectacular falls in the world.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Josh Arnold]

Now women actually do have a more difficult time doing tightrope than men because.

[Christy Lee]

Why is that?

[Josh Arnold]

Because they can have their period and slip on the blood that gets on the tightrope.

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, that happens.

[Christy Lee]

I thought you were going to say their boobs. Throw them all.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, no. I was giving facts, guys.

[Tom Griswold]

If I were doing it, I'd be Slipping on the excrement that I would be shooting out in terror.

[Chick McGee]

Just when I think I'm not a man. I was watching the hockey game yesterday, the girls, and they kept saying, period, and I got a little uncomfortable. First period, second period.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, my.

[Chick McGee]

And then I remember that old joke. What is it? Change. Change your. After two periods. What is it? There's a joke there somewhere.

[Christy Lee]

What?

[Chick McGee]

Or after three periods?

[Josh Arnold]

I'm not too sure, but.

[Chick McGee]

Well, somebody will send it in.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, good.

[Chick McGee]

We'll get there, boy. Thanks. We'll get there.

[Tom Griswold]

This is. This is really cool.

[Josh Arnold]

It is cool.

[Christy Lee]

That's slack line. Harder than a tightrope.

[Josh Arnold]

Slack is. Honestly has more slack. Oh, is it more difficult?

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

No, it's. It's necessary, apparently.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Why is that?

[Josh Arnold]

They say you want a little bit of slack, otherwise it's not slack enough.

[Chick McGee]

By the way, thank you, Josh.

[Tom Griswold]

If you're just joining us for Josh's last day, we certainly appreciate it.

[Josh Arnold]

I just remember that documentary, man on Wire. They do explain why he wanted slack as opposed to a big real. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

My favorite part of that documentary is he's in his backyard working on the slack line between two. Like the. The laundry poles. He's got the line.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And he. But. And he doesn't have a safety.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, no.

[Chick McGee]

That guy, he said the worst part was the first step. That guy shows up in Marty supreme onto the line.

[Tom Griswold]

He does.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, he does.

[Josh Arnold]

He's just. I forget what role he is, but he's just a small role.

[Chick McGee]

And did you see Penn Jillette?

[Pat Godwin]

I didn't recognize him.

[Josh Arnold]

Mamet shows up.

[Chick McGee]

Mamet's in there.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, they like to cast just a wide array. I mean, the fact that Kevin o' Leary has a big role in that thing.

[Chick McGee]

Big role, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's right. Yeah, he's good.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, he's not bad. I mean, he's kind of just being Kevin.

[Chick McGee]

Nowhere near Jerry Jones, but good Jerry Jones.

[Tom Griswold]

Great in Landman. Now, coming up, we have Christy Lee over there at the news desk. We'll get some more songs out of Pat Godwin. And I would like to mention Patty G's part of a special benefit thing.

[Chick McGee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Top show in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. There's Christy Lee.

[Christy Lee]

Hi, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

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

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Jess Hooker]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

There's Ace Cosby.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey.

[Chick McGee]

Hello indeed. I'm Chick and hello, Tom. How you doing, buddy?

[Tom Griswold]

Got into an argument with Christy during the break about it's easily Reese's Cups.

[Chick McGee]

She is a bully.

[Christy Lee]

This story outrages me.

[Chick McGee]

She's outraged.

[Tom Griswold]

She's outrageous.

[Christy Lee]

Outraged.

[Chick McGee]

Don't they have nut rages for Reese's? I believe they do.

[Tom Griswold]

So it's, it's, is it. It's Reese's.

[Josh Arnold]

Is that.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, it's Reese's.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. Yeah, yeah, I know. I know a lot of places regionally they say like things like Reese's PCs and boy, that is just a. So it's Reese's testament to the school systems in those areas.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, I see the grandson of the

[Christy Lee]

man who invented Reese's Peanut Butter Cups is accusing the Hershey company of cutting corners. Oh, now I don't have a problem with Hershey. My grandfather used to work for them and I've been to Hershey, Pennsylvania and

[Josh Arnold]

been they're a fine product.

[Christy Lee]

Fabulous.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, however, the Hershey highway is a different story. We'll get to that later.

[Christy Lee]

70 year old Brad Reese, grandson of H.B. reese. Reese, Reese's.

[Tom Griswold]

This is the thing.

[Chick McGee]

What the hell.

[Josh Arnold]

I am Brad Reese. This is my son and partner, HB Reese.

[Chick McGee]

It's.

[Christy Lee]

So he's the grandson of HB Reese.

[Tom Griswold]

So HB Reese is the originator of the.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Christy Lee]

And Brad's not happy.

[Tom Griswold]

He said in an open family company he Sold it. It years and years ago to Hershey's.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, so Hershey's owns Reese's.

[Christy Lee]

Right?

[Tom Griswold]

Right.

[Christy Lee]

But in an open letter to the Hershey's corporate brand manager, he sent. He said for multiple Reese's products, the company has replaced milk chocolate with compound coatings and peanut butter with peanut cream.

[Josh Arnold]

You know, I kind of have no doubt on this.

[Christy Lee]

I know they're cutting corners to save money and have. Hershey has acknowledged some recipe changes, but said Reese's peanut butter cups are made the same way they've always been.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you might be using the same machines.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

No, but I think that the standard. The standard cups are the same. It's the ones shaped like bats and.

[Christy Lee]

But that's not true, because those are sometimes better, aren't they?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, but maybe they're not the true original formula.

[Tom Griswold]

I think this gets into, like, the definition of chocolate. There's all kinds of technical. Huh.

[Christy Lee]

The price of chocolate, the cocoa beans or whatever they make chocolate from is so high right now that a lot of these chocolate companies are finding other ways.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Christy Lee]

To compensate.

[Josh Arnold]

And my uncle is a chocolate speculator.

[Christy Lee]

Is he?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Chocolate futures are. Who can predict.

[Josh Arnold]

Right? Exactly.

[Chick McGee]

And it's pronounced chocolate.

[Tom Griswold]

Keep going.

[Christy Lee]

Mr. Reese said. Mr. Reese said to her she should keep in mind a famous quote from its founder, Milton Hershey. Quote, give them quality. That's the best advertising.

[Tom Griswold]

I love. I love stuff like that. The old man, you know, the picture of the guy, and I give them quality.

[Christy Lee]

Bradley told the Associated Press, he said, some of Hershey's products are inedible. He said, you have to understand, I used to eat a Reese's product every day. This is very devastating for me.

[Tom Griswold]

This guy still has both his feet.

[Christy Lee]

You could eat a peanut butter cup every day and be fine.

[Jess Hooker]

Tom.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

In fact, most.

[Josh Arnold]

Dennis recommend you have one right before bed.

[Christy Lee]

Don't brush your teeth.

[Tom Griswold]

So. But I think that the. The. The actual Reese's cup is still standard. Same recipe. Everything is the same.

[Chick McGee]

I don't think.

[Christy Lee]

I think it is.

[Chick McGee]

I know it's smaller. I'll tell you that.

[Christy Lee]

Maybe that's how we're gonna do.

[Tom Griswold]

You see, they're changing the name of three Musketeers to two Musketeers.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh. Well, they found out that the third was on the Epstein list.

[Tom Griswold]

Everything is getting smaller.

[Chick McGee]

The big cup. You've come across the big cup.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

You know what? I'll be. You guys will not believe this. I'm very familiar with the big cup. I have yet to try One.

[Chick McGee]

No kidding.

[Josh Arnold]

I've never had a Reese's Big Cup.

[Chick McGee]

I'm about to change that. Have you heard of the Reese's Pieces with caramel big cup?

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yes.

[Josh Arnold]

How is it?

[Tom Griswold]

Delightful. I would have to confess, I. Amazing.

[Chick McGee]

Isn't it?

[Christy Lee]

Wonderful.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Holy hell. You want to rub it over your whole body and then come across it.

[Tom Griswold]

Whoa.

[Josh Arnold]

Something like that.

[Tom Griswold]

I would rephrase that.

[Christy Lee]

Do you have a song, Pat?

[Pat Godwin]

Well, we had a story about a year ago, remember the Reese's Pieces truck had caught on fire.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh.

[Pat Godwin]

And so I have a little song prepared.

[Chick McGee]

Here we go.

[Pat Godwin]

Cleaning up Reese's Pieces in Jersey late last night 20 tons of chocolate caught on fire the driver's James the Riga went up in flames they're trying to place the blame and now ET Will never be the same Hershey Highway I just rear ended you on Hershey Highway. What a bumpy ride. You know, we could use some tubes of Astro Glide on Hershey Highway. I just rear ended. Rear ended.

[Tom Griswold]

You.

[Josh Arnold]

Know, there may have been a clause when Reese. Reese is sold to Hershey's, you change nothing. Maybe that could be upsetting this guy, too. Yeah, but it's still a pretty.

[Christy Lee]

Pretty damn good piece of candy product.

[Chick McGee]

But.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. And they cash the checks. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. There's also something to be said for a person's taste buds change like every seven years or something where your tongue literally tastes things differently than you used to. Really? Yes. Yes, for sure. And so, you know. Oh, yeah. Things don't chase like they used to.

[Christy Lee]

Explain the seven year itch.

[Josh Arnold]

It does. You're tasting a certain activity.

[Chick McGee]

The Reese's Peanut Butter cup comes in various shapes and sizes and seasonality. The Peanut Butter Snowman. I've never come across a snowman.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you're not trying.

[Chick McGee]

Three times larger than the peanut butter tree. They have an egg. They have a pumpkin.

[Josh Arnold]

They're all good.

[Chick McGee]

They have a peanut Reese's Ugly sweater.

[Christy Lee]

I saw those this year.

[Chick McGee]

That's unbelievable.

[Josh Arnold]

Do you like the cups?

[Chick McGee]

Football?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, I'm a fan.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just reading the technical end of this. What is defined as milk chocolate by the fda. And this gets really.

[Chick McGee]

Holy heck. Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Milk chocolate's milk chocolate. There shouldn't be.

[Tom Griswold]

Here's the short version. Companies get around rules by using other wording on their packaging, including the words chocolate candy instead of milk chocolate.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

So if you want it to be milk chocolate, that's got to be 10% chocolate liquor is what it says here. That's how they define it.

[Chick McGee]

You like Introducing hershey's syrup into the bedroom.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no food.

[Chick McGee]

Drizzle it over her strawberries.

[Josh Arnold]

I think I like it on paper. I've never done it in real life.

[Chick McGee]

I haven't ever done and I don't

[Josh Arnold]

think I would like it. But I like the idea of.

[Tom Griswold]

Especially if you have someone helping you in the house, around the house. You know, you don't want your.

[Chick McGee]

Your sheets all chalk.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Your household lady coming up and going, hey, look, I draw the line at explosive diarrhea sheets.

[Christy Lee]

They're household lady.

[Pat Godwin]

Your household lady.

[Chick McGee]

He's. He's amazing. And the thing is he doesn't know he's doing it and that makes it 10 times funny. You know, Your household lady.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, the one that happened to me was the time that I was helping Willie make the paper mache shark and I. And I went to bed like two in the morning covered in that paper mache goop. It looked like. It looked like my bed. Been like a bukkake festival.

[Christy Lee]

It's back when you had black sheets.

[Chick McGee]

They have.

[Tom Griswold]

And they were black sheets. Thank you very much.

[Christy Lee]

That was your single.

[Tom Griswold]

It was a classic.

[Chick McGee]

Now they have skeleton Reese's skeletons, Reese's bells, stockings and snowmen for Christmas.

[Josh Arnold]

All those seasonal ones are great.

[Chick McGee]

And I think they taste better than the regular cups.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe because they're fresher.

[Chick McGee]

I think so.

[Tom Griswold]

But I think those are the ones that this guy is disputing.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, he is. But they do. Christie said it earlier. They do taste real good.

[Christy Lee]

They do.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm a big fan. Yeah, they're caramel and delightful. We have lots of other fun stuff coming up including what time do you go to bed and what time does your significant other go to bed? Is at the same time. And that can actually have an effect on your relationship.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

We're found out about a study on that particular topic. Also we have chickens in the news. Couple of chicken stories and maybe doing wordle could be good for you.

[Chick McGee]

And. And chicken related to a puzzle.

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Someone verifying what you've always said.

[Tom Griswold]

I can't imagine me being right about something. But we'll find out.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, you dirty lie.

[Tom Griswold]

Looking forward to that.

[Josh Arnold]

And do we have pie coming up?

[Chick McGee]

We do.

[Josh Arnold]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

Huckleberry pie. You have a song about that bad? I don't get going.

[Pat Godwin]

I got the wings song. Chicken wings.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no.

[Chick McGee]

We got wings.

[Christy Lee]

Coming up.

[Tom Griswold]

Huckleberry friends. It's a no brainer rainer. We'll be right Back to the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. There's Christy Lee.

[Christy Lee]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

And her jaunty scarf around her neck.

[Christy Lee]

Yes. I'm thinking spring.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, nice. Very nice.

[Chick McGee]

Spring colors. There's Pat Godwin.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

There's Jess Hooker.

[Jess Hooker]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Very exciting. Jess brought. Brought a treat. There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

We all love treats.

[Chick McGee]

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

[Tom Griswold]

I'm making unusual tie in here with Miss Hooker. Okay, first of all, Jess, I can't see because of that microphone stand. What does your T shirt say?

[Jess Hooker]

It says the Magic Bus. It's a head shop in town. Down.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah. Based on the only who song I Despise.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, you don't like that one?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, God.

[Josh Arnold]

Would you say you've had too much Magic Bus?

[Chick McGee]

That's a great song.

[Tom Griswold]

It's just awful.

[Chick McGee]

Really? Oh, of all the songs to hate.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I just profoundly. That was a. When I was painting houses climbed down the ladder. Wow.

[Pat Godwin]

How do you feel about Squeeze Box?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. I hate that one, too.

[Pat Godwin]

I thought you did.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And I. And I.

[Josh Arnold]

My mama's got one of those. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Chick McGee]

What about Rough Boys? Does that count as a who song?

[Tom Griswold]

That's weird.

[Josh Arnold]

It's just Townsend. But that's. That is weird. You guys get a gay vibe from it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Townsend, I think. Any port in the storm. But the man's a genius.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Sorry. Oh, don't play it.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I mean, you kind of like this intro at all.

[Tom Griswold]

I do.

[Chick McGee]

They discovered stereo. You got it in the right and the left.

[Josh Arnold]

Yep.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm enjoying it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I feel bad for Tom.

[Chick McGee]

Magic.

[Tom Griswold]

Trying to torture me.

[Christy Lee]

How can you not like this?

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe the nasal. Nasal vocal.

[Chick McGee]

Get on the bus. It takes.

[Josh Arnold]

Look at Hooker's face. You're not caring for it.

[Jess Hooker]

I don't care for it in headphones if it was on a big speaker. But, like, it feels really aggressive, you

[Pat Godwin]

know, like, you know, it felt.

[Josh Arnold]

I felt claustrophobic.

[Chick McGee]

That's interesting.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Who's next? Just.

[Chick McGee]

No, that's another album.

[Tom Griswold]

Go to Go to bed with that. That's. That's great.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, that is.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. What was I going to mention?

[Christy Lee]

Tying in something.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm tying in something. This is semi obscure.

[Jess Hooker]

I. I don't expect any less.

[Chick McGee]

I don't think it's.

[Tom Griswold]

You're welcome.

[Chick McGee]

Semi at all. It's Totally.

[Tom Griswold]

You got a great compliment from someone yesterday about your work on this program. I would be passing it along had you not just insulted me.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

Bobby Valentine in the world of baseball. Manager.

[Christy Lee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Famously. We were talking about this earlier. Famously was thrown out of a game, and he went into the locker room, and he came back with a fake mustache and sunglasses, and he was kind of in the back of the dugout.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

He got caught.

[Jess Hooker]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

But the Mets are doing a special Bobby Valentine night this year where they're giving. But what reminded me of you is this is. This is a great tie in.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Am I correct in saying.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That when you were younger, you told me this. You had your index fingers tattooed so you could hold your fingers up by your nose and it looked like you had a mustache.

[Jess Hooker]

I did, yeah. That was the. My. The first tattoo I had removed.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

It was across here.

[Tom Griswold]

That had to hurt like hell then.

[Jess Hooker]

It hurt way worse to have it removed. Removed, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But what a weird thing to do.

[Jess Hooker]

A lot of people had them. Just the one right here.

[Josh Arnold]

My cousin had. Just, like, how you had it. Two fingers. She. She still has it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So that. That was a thing?

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

It was a big thing. It was. It was. I met someone who did the Fu Manchu. Oh, my God. Down the inside their thumbs and around their palms.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, my gosh. Like the barbershop quartet mustache guy.

[Jess Hooker]

Insane. Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But aren't you saying to yourself, this is a cute gag, but I'm going to be having this on my hands the rest of my life?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

I didn't realize how much I talked with my hands until people started saying, hey, you've got something on your. And I'm like, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I know.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. So. But they faded really fast. So, yeah, I had them removed.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a cute thing.

[Tom Griswold]

Getting. Getting removed really hurt a lot.

[Jess Hooker]

It hurts so much.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, Josh, would you do a cute thing that was gonna be on your body for the rest of your life?

[Josh Arnold]

No, but I totally get why a. How old were you?

[Jess Hooker]

20 something.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Why? I mean, that happened.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm kind of lucky I came up when I did because I would otherwise be doing stupid things like snowboarding instead of skiing.

[Christy Lee]

Have you seen the new trend that for your. Your child will forever be holding your hand. And they take their. They mark their fingers on the ends and they. They hold your hand and they mark it, and then they tattoo that on your hand for a mom or a dad.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really?

[Christy Lee]

It's just a.it's like a. Or you could have a hearts.

[Josh Arnold]

That sounds kind of nice.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Really?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. No, you wouldn't do that.

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

God.

[Jess Hooker]

I mean, it's small enough to where it looks like freckles.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, it does.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm. Tattoos are cool if they're done properly in the, in the right situation. But I just don't like the fact that, you know, these kids turn 16 and all of a sudden they go to the mall. And I mean, a tattoo used to mean you'd been across the ocean and you worked in the docks in Singapore.

[Christy Lee]

We've come a long way from that.

[Chick McGee]

People who have tattoos, they're just filthy individuals. You can't trust them.

[Tom Griswold]

So I had.

[Chick McGee]

I have nine. Thanks for I I. Yours helping me out.

[Tom Griswold]

Years are significant. They're nice. Mr. Osuke has some very nice one. He also has a couple ridiculous ones. But we're staying at dinner the other night and Hart, who's about to turn 10, I. She must have overheard me saying something. She goes, daddy, if I'm the only one of your kids that doesn't have a tattoo, does that mean I get all the money when you die? Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I love that. Yeah. Just say not all of it, but more.

[Chick McGee]

And she's 10 years old.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm totally serious.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, I believe.

[Jess Hooker]

I love how she's thinking through it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Because I had sort of threaded.

[Christy Lee]

You've always said that if you get

[Tom Griswold]

a tattoo, you're out of the will.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, I've heard you say that.

[Tom Griswold]

And of course all the older ones.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Jess Hooker]

Right.

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

I've only got two tattooed free kids

[Christy Lee]

and they're under the age of 13.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. They can be buried in any cemetery.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Now, are they still.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you, Josh.

[Tom Griswold]

Are they still sticklers for that?

[Pat Godwin]

Oh, who knows?

[Josh Arnold]

I would imagine so.

[Chick McGee]

Sticklers. It's a part of their religion.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, wait a second. In my defense, yes. There is a comedian, I won't say who he is, who is of the Jewish faith who has a huge six pointed star tattooed on his arm.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, isn't that kind of exactly what you're not supposed to do?

[Josh Arnold]

I think the comedians of the Jewish faith that we meet, that we all know or friends with, aren't the most devout.

[Jess Hooker]

They might be casually Jewish.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just saying. But if that whole rule of maybe

[Christy Lee]

they don't care where they're buried.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, right.

[Jess Hooker]

That's true too.

[Josh Arnold]

Exactly.

[Tom Griswold]

He's a very funny guy.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah. They often are.

[Tom Griswold]

Life's very funny.

[Josh Arnold]

I didn't really like the way I said they often are. But I.

[Christy Lee]

That's all right.

[Tom Griswold]

I like to get into dangerous territory, discussing things that no matter how we try to be graceful and elegant, we're gonna screw up now.

[Jess Hooker]

Can I show you what I brought?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. There's a little napkin over by you.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

It's a cloth.

[Christy Lee]

Look at that.

[Josh Arnold]

That is a.

[Chick McGee]

Son of a gun.

[Jess Hooker]

That is a huckleberry pie.

[Josh Arnold]

And the lattice work on it is astounding.

[Christy Lee]

Beau.

[Jess Hooker]

Thanks.

[Pat Godwin]

Perfect.

[Tom Griswold]

That. It looks delicious. And we were talking about this because. I have never had huckleberry.

[Christy Lee]

None of us have.

[Jess Hooker]

I don't think any of us have.

[Tom Griswold]

All I know is Huckleberry Hound, the cartoon and the dreadful lyric to Moon River.

[Christy Lee]

Isn't that Huckleberry Friend? Is he referencing the Mark Twain character?

[Josh Arnold]

He must be.

[Tom Griswold]

Johnny Mercer lyric. A rare misstep.

[Pat Godwin]

Solved it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I think it's a nice lyric. That's. It's one of those nice lyrics that's also fairly meaningless.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

But it works in the. Huckleberry did all the work.

[Pat Godwin]

Maybe that's what you're. My huckleberry friend.

[Christy Lee]

Did you try it while you were making it?

[Chick McGee]

I did.

[Jess Hooker]

I tried what was left in this jar. I got this from Huckleberry Haven, Inc. In Kalispell, Montana.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Let me see.

[Jess Hooker]

It's not cheap. That's. I'll tell you that. This was over $40.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. All right.

[Jess Hooker]

Thanks, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

Those are huckleberries.

[Chick McGee]

No, you see how he confuses himself?

[Tom Griswold]

I've never seen a huckleberry that's not like electric eels.

[Jess Hooker]

It's a napkin. Because after I washed it, it was wet and I stuck the napkin in there. Yeah. So this is just the jar.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm gonna bring this back to rock and roll here.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a beautiful. But we'll get some shots of that. Okay, so you're obviously putting it together. That huckleberry is because it's a river. So it's the Mississippi River.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Christy Lee]

And Mark Twain.

[Tom Griswold]

Still a crappy lyric.

[Josh Arnold]

No, actually, that does really work.

[Chick McGee]

Work.

[Josh Arnold]

I think it does. Yep.

[Pat Godwin]

Muckleberry Friend.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And they made famous about what? Andy Williams.

[Pat Godwin]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yay or nay. Mississippi Queen by mountain.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm a big yay.

[Tom Griswold]

Me, too.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I love that riff.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, I do, too.

[Christy Lee]

That's a fine song.

[Tom Griswold]

Leslie west, formerly the Great Fatsby, he called himself.

[Josh Arnold]

I didn't know that.

[Tom Griswold]

Really? Yeah. Right.

[Chick McGee]

I don't remember that.

[Tom Griswold]

He had. He had an album called the Great, Great Fatsby. Yeah. I'm totally serious.

[Josh Arnold]

We believe you. We had not heard it.

[Tom Griswold]

That's all great guitar player. Then he was in that before or after Mountain? After.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

And he was in the band with what? Jack Bruce.

[Chick McGee]

The great fats. Leslie West, 1975. He.

[Tom Griswold]

He had been a man of a certain size. He was quite a corpulent fellow. And then he slimmed way down. Sadly I believe he's gone on okay. But great guitar player.

[Chick McGee]

I know a guy who met him and said he was just awful. He was an awful. He was in there.

[Tom Griswold]

He was great.

[Chick McGee]

He was an awful person.

[Tom Griswold]

He was real nice and awful.

[Chick McGee]

Awful.

[Tom Griswold]

That's. I just love that riff.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a good one. That's a great summer. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Are you familiar with it's probably played

[Josh Arnold]

it 500 times at least.

[Tom Griswold]

Being dismissed by chicken.

[Chick McGee]

I see.

[Tom Griswold]

That's fine. It's because of the tattoo joke.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you know what happened here. We're. We're enticed by this delicious pie.

[Tom Griswold]

So if I keep talking you don't get to eat?

[Chick McGee]

No. Here's the thing. That's right. No, you do this. You do this with everyone.

[Tom Griswold]

You.

[Chick McGee]

You. Oh, here's fill in the blank. And we've got this feature that we're going to do. But first I'm going to mention something that no one cares about and we're going to talk about that for.

[Tom Griswold]

So we're going to get right to it. Unless you want to to go talk about Simply Safe.

[Josh Arnold]

I think we have to.

[Chick McGee]

I do want to talk about Simply Safe.

[Tom Griswold]

It's the best. It keeps getting rated number one in the world.

[Chick McGee]

We all want peace of mind. Like biting into a big slice of huckleberry pie.

[Josh Arnold]

What if we find out we're all deathly allergic.

[Chick McGee]

My face is all sorry. No wonder this isn't popular.

[Tom Griswold]

White tongue. White tongue.

[Pat Godwin]

Some friend.

One of the great cowbell intros.

[Christy Lee]

Yep.

[Chick McGee]

Really doesn't get it until right about here.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, come on.

[Josh Arnold]

The greatest fine Southern rock.

[Tom Griswold]

Now. I don't know what he means. No, I believe she's a Cajun lady. Aren't they all?

[Chick McGee]

I think she. I think that's a lyric. Occasionally.

[Tom Griswold]

She is. Occasionally.

[Chick McGee]

Is that him singing? Is that. Leslie was singing?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So what I. My point would be I'd rather hear Mississippi Queen. Thank you.

[Christy Lee]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

He famously says, Felix is going to sing now. Remember that.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, is that. Oh, goodness.

[Chick McGee]

Leslie's. So I find it.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, maybe so. I don't know, but I. We will be coming back with our spoons and forks and our. And our huckleberry friend.

[Chick McGee]

I think I heard talk of ice cream and whipped topping.

[Jess Hooker]

I have that. I have that ice cream we made outside freezer.

[Chick McGee]

So there you go.

[Tom Griswold]

It's gonna be absolutely delightful. Also, we have delights for your ears with some interesting news stories, including male birth control.

[Chick McGee]

That's an idea whose time never has come.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, it's long overdue.

[Tom Griswold]

And an unusual connection with male birth control research. And we have a couple interesting chickens in the news.

[Josh Arnold]

I love chickens.

[Tom Griswold]

So we'll be back with all that in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This will still be the Bob and Tom Show. How are you doing?

[Chick McGee]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. There's Christy Lee.

[Christy Lee]

Hi.

[Chick McGee]

She's at the News Center. There's Pat Godwin.

[Pat Godwin]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

Jess Hooker is plating up huckleberry pie. There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

This looks delightful. I've got a cup of coffee here. Coffee and pie.

[Chick McGee]

I mean, come on, America.

[Christy Lee]

Nothing better.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, my goodness. Goodness. Hello, Tom. You got your huckleberry pie.

[Tom Griswold]

I do, and it looks like a traditional blueberry pie. Hang on one second. I gotta.

[Chick McGee]

Are you gonna have a sniffing it?

[Josh Arnold]

Sniffing it. I smelled mostly crust when I sniffed.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, me, too. Are you trying it?

[Jess Hooker]

Christy, I'm a heavy crust gal. I like a good crust.

[Josh Arnold]

Sure.

[Jess Hooker]

I think you need the salt to weigh out the filling.

[Josh Arnold]

All right, well, let's take some bites.

[Tom Griswold]

Have you tried it yet?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes, I have and I have.

[Tom Griswold]

And yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Boy, that first bite of pie, when you get the point, that is a real, real flavor.

[Jess Hooker]

So when you look it up and you ask what a mulberry tastes like. A lot of people are like, oh, it's a blueberry, but it's more dynamic or there's depth. I did not get blueberry at all. I know. I got a completely different fruit.

[Tom Griswold]

Whatever it is, it's great.

[Christy Lee]

What do you taste? I could taste a little blueberry.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. But it's.

[Christy Lee]

I'm glad. I was afraid.

[Jess Hooker]

It's like a BlackBerry doesn't, which is nice. No seeds like that. But I get purple grape.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm getting some of that, too.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And I don't like blueberry. And I like this.

[Tom Griswold]

I feel this is one of those wine shows that they talk about. How do they word that, Josh? Like tints of leather. What's the pretentious way?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, notes. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I love that. Yeah. Notes of.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay, hints and notes.

[Chick McGee]

Okie.

[Josh Arnold]

Now it's. I don't find it to be overly sweet at all.

[Christy Lee]

I don't either.

[Jess Hooker]

It's not at all.

[Josh Arnold]

It's not. There are ways. I mean, apple pie is almost sweeter than this. But this is really good.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm getting on. On notes of peanut butter and jelly.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, sure.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, exactly. Yeah. With the purple grape.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, I think so. Good.

[Jess Hooker]

You could definitely do. If I did my peanut butter pie base and you did like a pie cake. Both.

[Chick McGee]

There you go.

[Josh Arnold]

I like its confidence, but. And I also appreciate that it's unassuming.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, God, I love that pretentious kind of talk.

[Christy Lee]

Aren't you starting to shut up and eat?

[Tom Griswold]

We were talking about that horrible song the Magic Bus because of your T shirt. Josh. I don't know if you knew. This Josh is quite the faux literary. So intellectual. And he's. He's starting a tribute band.

[Jess Hooker]

Is he?

[Tom Griswold]

To the who called the whom.

[Josh Arnold]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Just a slightly. A. Hints of pretentiousness.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Or is it pretension? I can never remember.

[Josh Arnold]

I've got to work on my pretention about saying pretension.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. No wonder I do it then. This is delicious.

[Christy Lee]

It was very good.

[Tom Griswold]

And can you go back in time for those just joining us? Where do you get the huckleberries?

[Jess Hooker]

These are available online. And this. I use the brand Huckleberry Haven, Inc. In Kalispell, Montana.

[Josh Arnold]

And this all started because we had a listener ask if we've ever had peanut butter and huckleberry jam sandwiches.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

This makes perfect sense. Why it would make a fine peanut butter and jam. Oh, you would do that? I would do that.

[Tom Griswold]

I wonder if you can now. Can you get. Get huckleberry. Jam, Conveniently.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes, you can. I got the pie filling for this.

[Pat Godwin]

How much?

[Jess Hooker]

For a juror, this was over $40.

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes, it did. Because huckleberries aren't cultivated. They have to be hand picked, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And by wild bears.

[Josh Arnold]

That's exactly right. And those are trained bears. And that's expensive.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I kind of wish it was a little bit more sweet, you know?

[Jess Hooker]

You would.

[Josh Arnold]

I get why you're saying that, but that's where I think the vanilla ice cream or whipped topping would come in.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. There you go. Yes. And I do like the crust. The crust is excellent. But you don't make your crust.

[Jess Hooker]

I did this one.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, you did. Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Now, Ace huckleberry jam is never going to replace grape jelly for me when. When it comes to peanut butter and jelly. But I would. I would try that.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

What are those things with the crimps on them that you guys were telling me about?

[Christy Lee]

The crimps?

[Josh Arnold]

Uncrustables.

[Tom Griswold]

Uncrustables, yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Have you ever had one?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't think so.

[Jess Hooker]

But you would love it.

[Tom Griswold]

I think my kids have. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

There's no doubt.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Are those the ones that are frozen? Yep.

[Chick McGee]

Uncrustables are taking the National Football League by storm.

[Tom Griswold]

I've heard that.

[Chick McGee]

That.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, they're delicious. They've really found a fine balance in those.

[Tom Griswold]

Do they have grape jelly flavored and strawberries and hazelnut?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, they're great.

[Tom Griswold]

They're great. And that was in the Sporting News because it was at the Broncos that were.

[Chick McGee]

NFL teams consume over 80,000 Smuckers Uncrustables every year, with weekly consumption ranging from 3,600 to 4,300 sandwiches. In quotes, they're high carb, portable snack for athletes. Broncos lead the league, consuming 700 a week. The Seahawks at the lower end, 320 a week. The Broncos, 700. Jaguars. Yeah. Coming up second, Seahawks with 320 Broncos. Oh, 700 a week.

[Josh Arnold]

How many could you eat?

[Chick McGee]

They're really in one set.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, and I'm talking. You're really stuffing yourself.

[Chick McGee]

I'm gonna say four or five, probably.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm going ten.

[Chick McGee]

Ten?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. I could eat ten. I would be. My body would be absolutely furious.

[Chick McGee]

My man here says he can eat 10 uncrustable.

[Jess Hooker]

These were one of Alsman's cravings. And she liked them frozen.

[Josh Arnold]

She did.

[Jess Hooker]

She would eat them like a. Like a ice cream.

[Josh Arnold]

In the last three weeks, you'd waddle into the green rooms angrily, sort of

[Tom Griswold]

grab one like she wasn't Is her baby due today?

[Christy Lee]

No, her baby is due next week, 24th or fifth.

[Josh Arnold]

And they are gonna get good money for that baby. I mean, that's. You know, how much white babies go for.

[Chick McGee]

Healthy white baby.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, that's right.

[Tom Griswold]

I was. I was busy over here, so I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that.

[Christy Lee]

Well, you were talking about pie. Let's talk about wings for a minute. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Wines. Yeah, she just said wine.

[Christy Lee]

And Illinois judges ruled that boneless chicken wings are still quote, unquote, wings.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. Wrong.

[Jess Hooker]

You're 100% right, Ace. I'm with you.

[Christy Lee]

Amin Haleem of Chicago filed a lawsuit.

[Chick McGee]

Who?

[Christy Lee]

Amin Haleem of Chicago filed a lawsuit

[Josh Arnold]

against the New York mayor.

[Christy Lee]

Why?

[Josh Arnold]

Something like that.

[Tom Griswold]

Right.

[Josh Arnold]

I didn't know. That's not his name.

[Christy Lee]

No, but.

[Chick McGee]

Sorry.

[Christy Lee]

Nice.

[Chick McGee]

It's Rodin, isn't it? Mothra. What? What's this? Rodan. Mothra.

[Tom Griswold]

Rodan. You mean the sculptor

[Josh Arnold]

is also one of Godzilla's.

[Chick McGee]

Godzilla? It's like a giant butterfly or something.

[Tom Griswold]

I thought that's the famous sculpture. The Thinker.

[Christy Lee]

Of course. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

And he's thinking, why didn't he make this a little bit larger? It's embarrassing.

[Christy Lee]

He filed a lawsuit against Buffalo Wild wings back in 2023, arguing that the chain deceives customers by labeling its products as boneless wings when the chain instead uses breast meat, which is cheaper.

[Chick McGee]

What does it say about a guy who goes into Buffalo Wild Wings and he starts a lawsuit?

[Josh Arnold]

I know.

[Christy Lee]

You're exactly right, Judge John J. Tharp, Jr. Oh, yeah, that's my name, too.

[Tom Griswold]

That's.

[Josh Arnold]

His parents named him him, and he became a judge. Tom, your theory holds up.

[Christy Lee]

Yep. Dismissed Mr. Haleem's claim, saying in his ruling that a reasonable consumer would not think that boneless wings were made of wing meat. I don't think that's.

[Josh Arnold]

You know what? That is a difference.

[Christy Lee]

There is a difference.

[Josh Arnold]

There.

[Christy Lee]

There is a difference.

[Josh Arnold]

Some people would think they were just deboned.

[Tom Griswold]

Exactly. I would make this argument. Your Honor, forgive me and forgive the ladies in the jury. We call this a boner.

[Josh Arnold]

Now, there is no boner.

[Tom Griswold]

There is no bone in it.

[Chick McGee]

I think.

[Tom Griswold]

Ladies, are you aware Objects I respect.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm going to allow it, but you better be going somewhere.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

That's one of my favorite favorite lines of any judge in a movie.

[Christy Lee]

He added, despite his best efforts, Mr. Haleem did not, quote, unquote, drum up enough factual allegations to state a claim. Mr. Haleem can amend his claim to try to prove he suffered economic Injury. But Judge Tharp said it's unlikely to be persuasive.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, good. This guy should not have won this case.

[Christy Lee]

He has until March 20 to file a complaint.

[Tom Griswold]

We have boneless ribs, I think, technically. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Right. And I think it was rib meat. Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Boneless wings, though.

[Josh Arnold]

Wings are dark meat.

[Christy Lee]

I know that, but.

[Jess Hooker]

And they're not shaped like it. They're shaped like nuggets.

[Christy Lee]

Yes, I know.

[Josh Arnold]

Or tinders.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Okay. Remember this whole thing started with potato chips.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. Potato crisps.

[Tom Griswold]

They have to call them. What are they? Pringles cannot be called potato chips. And they went back and they found the first potato chips were invented at some restaurant.

[Chick McGee]

And I think Greg Warren's at the bottom of it somehow. Pringles is the people who started this whole damn thing about chips or crisps.

[Tom Griswold]

Can the same. I have a. Can the same logic be applied to chicken fingers?

[Christy Lee]

They're not fingers, are they?

[Josh Arnold]

According to this guy. Yeah. He might sue to say, hey, these are not the fingers of a chicken.

[Christy Lee]

Of a chicken. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, if I were the judge, I'd give him the middle one.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Chicken feet. Didn't we have chicken feet that one day?

[Josh Arnold]

We sure didn't care for. Those were bad.

[Christy Lee]

Matt has a song about this.

[Pat Godwin]

Boneless wings have some breast meat but how would you know Wings are still wings A federal judge now tells us so the lawsuit has to go. It all stays the same so shut up and eat or cook the chicken yourself and use only wing meat Wings are still wings if the sauce ain't from Buffalo. Wings was on in the 90s and my favorite show.

[Chick McGee]

It was his favorite show.

[Pat Godwin]

It starred two brothers, one named Brian. Tim Daly was Joe Steadfast. Joe the mechanic was funny and left after six seasons. The show was still great, so I don't know the reasons. Wings was still wings Even when Thomas Hayden Church had to go, he played low. Wings are still wings if the sauce ain't from Buffalo. The Beatles broke up.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, my God.

[Pat Godwin]

And Paul started a band named Wings. His wife was in the group, even though she couldn't all play or sing. Band on the Run is a masterpiece. Even with Linda McCartney on Keys. And Wings were still good. Even without John, George and Ringo.

[Chick McGee]

Whoa.

[Pat Godwin]

Wings are still wings if the sauce ain't from Baho.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey.

[Tom Griswold]

A work of genius.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, remember the show Wings with that hot, hot Crystal Bernard?

[Christy Lee]

I loved her hair.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, she had wide.

[Jess Hooker]

No, she had the best, like, high hair.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Really thick hair.

[Jess Hooker]

She did great hair.

[Josh Arnold]

Can we get a sexier lead?

[Jess Hooker]

She's adorable.

[Josh Arnold]

She was cute. Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Thomas Hayden Church is one of my favorite.

[Christy Lee]

I like him, too.

[Tom Griswold]

We had a chance to talk with him. Great guy.

[Chick McGee]

Sideways.

[Christy Lee]

There we go.

[Tom Griswold]

Brilliant one. Crazy Easter lives in. Lives in Texas.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe you should move to Texas. Preferably somewhere where we can't get hooked up by.

[Chick McGee]

A little late for this kind of feedback. Really? Maybe I'll look into that. Thank you, Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll get you a cowboy hat. A nice one from Kimo.

[Chick McGee]

I will not wear a cowboy hat. You know that.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I'll get your good one.

[Chick McGee]

I don't. I've never been able to wear a cowboy hat.

[Christy Lee]

Have you tried?

[Chick McGee]

But you can buy me a cowboy hat if you'd like.

[Tom Griswold]

Only if you move.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, well, that's not nice.

[Chick McGee]

You remember when I had Covid and I did the show from the house and you guys never seemed more real to me because you were on tv and that's how I communicate. Okay, so maybe. Maybe we're on to something here that's interesting.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. You do like Austin.

[Chick McGee]

I do? Yeah. I got up my eye on a place there, as a matter of fact. So let's do it.

[Tom Griswold]

You need a co signer.

[Chick McGee]

Give me. Hang on.

[Tom Griswold]

Give.

[Chick McGee]

No, give me

[Pat Godwin]

all about that.

[Chick McGee]

Give me a. Give me a cowboy hat and $1.2 million and I'll be in Austin before you can go. Where'd Chick go?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, we can do a GoFundMe.

[Pat Godwin]

No, they call a cosigner. My dad used to say an idiot with a pen.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, you know something? I'd like to weigh in. Your dad was a smart man. I found that out the hard way. Now we have a bunch of cool stuff. Wait a minute. We have a special surprise coming up.

[Christy Lee]

Oh, we do now.

[Tom Griswold]

Yesterday's special surprise was great. Great. Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

He was a nice man. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

We talked with. We talked with the doctor who has the world record for putting matchsticks in his nose. Yeah, that was which, Ms. Hooker, sounds like the kind of thing you would do.

[Jess Hooker]

I used to shove quarters up my nose at the bar. What? Like just how many quarters do you think I could get up my nose?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm not kidding.

[Josh Arnold]

I can't believe you verified his insane theory.

[Tom Griswold]

No, you're the one that put the tattoos on your finger so you could have a mustache like this.

[Chick McGee]

How many quarters was it?

[Tom Griswold]

Four.

[Jess Hooker]

Three.

[Chick McGee]

Three.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah, three.

[Jess Hooker]

But that's a lot when it's up your nose.

[Tom Griswold]

But we spoke to this guy. He's a. He's a physician, and I think he's in the Dayton area.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Works in an er. Great guy.

[Josh Arnold]

We don't have a world record.

[Tom Griswold]

What you say?

[Christy Lee]

We don't know his survival rate.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, thank you.

[Josh Arnold]

We just don't. I'm just saying.

[Christy Lee]

Uncle Dr. Conkle was funny.

[Josh Arnold]

No, he was very nice to talk.

[Tom Griswold]

Really funny. Really funny guy. And he does have the world sound like Jerry Lewis.

[Chick McGee]

He was. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

I would.

[Christy Lee]

I enjoyed the conversation.

[Tom Griswold]

Wheeled into the er. Profuse. Profusely bleeding.

[Chick McGee]

As long as it's not conquered.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Okay. B.

[Josh Arnold]

And then his doctor's on the phone with some morning show.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, no kidding.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, funny man. You're gonna bleed out. I'm.

[Chick McGee]

The hell's going on?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm calling Dave and Stu right now. It's just.

[Chick McGee]

Go to Austin. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

It's time to get serious.

[Josh Arnold]

You know, Dave and Stu can't record together anymore. They have to have separate studio. I mean, still, you wouldn't really know listening.

[Chick McGee]

But we are headed there. Let me tell you. You. When I was a kid, the Beatles broke up, and I go, how did that. They were making great music, good money. Why would the four of them break it? I kind of get it now. Yeah, I really sort of understand it. Yoko.

[Tom Griswold]

That's what did it.

[Chick McGee]

Yoko.

[Christy Lee]

She didn't help.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, yeah. She's still alive.

[Christy Lee]

I know. In her 90s.

[Jess Hooker]

She just had her birthday.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, right now, I want to talk about what's coming up, which would be a very special guest that works here.

[Chick McGee]

And is it a surprise?

[Jess Hooker]

No, it's on the sketch.

[Chick McGee]

Oscar is not a surprise.

[Tom Griswold]

What is this? People listening. They don't know. They don't have that map in front of them.

[Chick McGee]

You know what? You are unintentionally, really funny today.

[Tom Griswold]

But also coming up, the. The Lent. What's legal to eat at Lent? I did a little research.

[Chick McGee]

Legal, Yeah. I did a little research.

[Christy Lee]

Illegal to eat something.

[Tom Griswold]

But I mean, if you're concerned that you're going to burn in hell for having alligator meat, you're wrong. We'll find out about that.

[Chick McGee]

And it's not a sin anymore, is it? You can eat meat on Fridays, right? They relax.

[Josh Arnold]

Check it with your local archdiocese. I see.

[Christy Lee]

Thank you.

[Chick McGee]

What about my arch enemy? Should I check with them?

[Tom Griswold]

Well,

[Chick McGee]

anything.

[Tom Griswold]

Fellas, I want to talk to you for just a second. What is today? Friday? Maybe tonight's a good night for you. Maybe you're gonna maybe go to a movie and you're gonna be looking at your lady and going, okay. But sometimes the stresses of life can be so much that when you get ready. You're not really in the moment. This is where Rugier comes in. In it's R U G I E t. We talk about being Rougiet ready. Rougiet is going to help you out when it's a bedroom time, if you will. It's a next generation prescription treatment. I've got to emphasize this is not a thing you just go to the drugstore and grab. It's a next generation prescription treatment. It's sort of a mint. You put it under your tongue and in about 15 minutes, most men are ready for action. So you're kind of in the moment and confident. So this has been used by, by the way, by about 150,000 men already. And we call it being rug yet ready. And it's R U g I E T I E t. I'm sorry, I keep spelling it because I want you to go to rugier.com Bob and Tom that's R U g I E T just for information. See if this is for you. And by the way, if you use the slash Bob Atom, you get 15% off your order. And the way it works is you'll be hooked up with a physician and they'll see if you are indeed a candidate. And if so, you can have the treatment shipped to you discreetly and directly. Once again, the details [e-mail] Bob and Tom R U G I E T. It's kind of a song. R U G I E T R U G I E T. The slash Bob and Tom part doesn't sing as clearly, but just remember that on your own. Once again, rougiet.com bobandtom it's time to take back your health. Individual results will vary. Get the information once [e-mail] for full safety information. And as I said earlier, it is a compounded prescription that is not FDA approved. Once again, rougiet.com for full safety information. It's a big Friday night. You know what I'm talking about, Josh. Okay. We have an interesting study coming up. Up about what time you go to bed and what time your significant other goes to bed. And is it the same time?

[Christy Lee]

I really believe this.

[Tom Griswold]

And in our. For most of us it is not.

[Christy Lee]

For me it is. But yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Finally your man goes to bed. When you go to bed.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah. And gets up right as I'm leaving. He gets up at five. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Does it have any correlation with the happiness of the couple?

[Tom Griswold]

Yep. Wow. It's interesting. Okay, we'll get to that. Among other things. And our special surprise guest, Jeff Voss.

[Chick McGee]

Now, when you leave, leave the house. Can you hear the band playing on their car?

[Tom Griswold]

It's not a band. It's a chorus. Hallelujah. Oh, sorry. We are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Announcer]

Thanks for listening to the Bob and Tom show, sponsored in part by Java House, the official coffee and refreshments of the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

News setter.

[Christy Lee]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Pat Godwin.

[Pat Godwin]

Hey, Chick.

[Chick McGee]

There's Jess Hooker.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, Trickster.

[Chick McGee]

Ace Cosby's here. Hey, I'm Chick. Hello. Tom.

[Tom Griswold]

If you're just joining us, you won't understand why I'm saying this. Just got a little short little email. Oh, technically, they're not Buffalo wings because we don't have buffalo in America. They're bison. All right, we get it.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, my Lord.

[Tom Griswold]

We're gonna split some hairs here. That's what's happening.

[Josh Arnold]

We can't invite windbags to write the show and then get upset about it.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, you're right. Okay, good, good. Again, congratulations to Ms. Hooker. That was a delightful huckleberry pie. I've never had it before. That was absolutely delicious. I would order that at a restaurant every time.

[Josh Arnold]

Was that thumbs up all the way around?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay, good, good.

[Josh Arnold]

I agree. I would not order it every time.

[Jess Hooker]

I wouldn't either. But I'm glad I had it, though.

[Josh Arnold]

But I would enjoy it again.

[Tom Griswold]

I want to get. Can you go on my account and buy a thing of huckleberry jam or preserves? I'd like to try that with a peanut butter sandwich.

[Christy Lee]

I had a pie feeling.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

You did.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

I'll get. Yeah, we can. So we can have sandwiches.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. I'd like to try PB&J made. I thought it was delightful.

[Christy Lee]

It was very good.

[Jess Hooker]

It ended up being a happy birth pie for our Aaron. Today is his birthday? Yes.

[Christy Lee]

Is he double A or aaa?

[Tom Griswold]

Why would he be aaa?

[Christy Lee]

I don't know.

[Josh Arnold]

He's Aaron.

[Christy Lee]

It's more A's. Better. Is better.

[Chick McGee]

Double A is catching on.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Have you ever heard me call him Aaron?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, no, no.

[Tom Griswold]

That's because.

[Josh Arnold]

But I've seen him crying after you called him.

[Christy Lee]

Called him. What's your name?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't call him. I don't call him. I always say AA every time he comes in. He's our new guy. He's great.

[Chick McGee]

Great.

[Josh Arnold]

And what times he comes in when we have somebody on the television.

[Tom Griswold]

He does.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Christy Lee]

That's usually why he's here.

[Josh Arnold]

Like Right now.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that's interesting.

[Tom Griswold]

This is our surprise guest that I promoted, Jeff Oscar. Hey, Jeffrey.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, man, how are you?

[Tom Griswold]

That's a nice tie and a shirt combination.

[Josh Arnold]

Thank you. Yeah, this was a gift from a fan who I don't remember their name. And the shirt was a gift from my girlfriend, who I don't remember her name.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Christy Lee]

You won't hear about that.

[Josh Arnold]

It's that time of the week. I'm coming to you from the Failed Dimension newsroom. We give you a lot of the news. We don't give you all the news. So I'm here to give you the news that we failed to mention.

[Chick McGee]

Here's Jeff Oskay with failed to mention news.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm excited. We have a new Failed Dimension News sponsor. The sponsor this week. The word gets. You ain't from around these parts.

[Chick McGee]

Now get.

[Tom Griswold]

That's git.

[Josh Arnold]

We learned that people are betting big money on curling this winter in the Winter Olympics. What? You failed to mention. I lost big on my Olympic bet. I went with the under on condom usage. I mean, honestly, who wears a condom? Ruined sex. Oh, you were talking about book ideas. I had a book idea. The name of the book is called Here's a novel idea. Okay. And the book just can. It's just a list of ideas for novels. I like it.

[Chick McGee]

That's good.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. 12 year old successfully produced nuclear fusion at his home in Dallas.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I did.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you failed to mention. Good for you. I can't even get my kids to split a Twix.

[Jess Hooker]

Fair enough.

[Pat Godwin]

You know what?

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

That's it. Have a good day.

[Tom Griswold]

That's good.

[Chick McGee]

Trust me, it doesn't get any better. That is a strong joke.

[Tom Griswold]

Look for that. Look for that one to be stolen

[Chick McGee]

on one of the major network talk shows.

[Jess Hooker]

I wonder how many more jokes he had.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, no. Well, you know what? We'll learn next Friday.

[Pat Godwin]

He killed it.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a fine joke. We've been talking about Twix. We've been talking about Reese's.

[Christy Lee]

I helped him write one. Now I'm sad.

[Josh Arnold]

He'll do it. He'll do it it or do you want to tell us it?

[Christy Lee]

No, I remember.

[Tom Griswold]

What was it about?

[Christy Lee]

I don't know. I was. I was eavesdropping and I said, well, what if. Why don't you try this? And he goes, oh, that even works better.

[Chick McGee]

Is that right?

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I would be interested to hear it as well.

[Pat Godwin]

I would love to hear it right now.

[Tom Griswold]

And knowing Chris is probably. Probably filthy.

[Christy Lee]

It was. It had snow cone in the Backyard in it.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, well, having a bite out of snow cone in the backyard, Tom. You ever do that?

[Tom Griswold]

That's looking at your code with word.

[Jess Hooker]

I've never hated anything more.

[Chick McGee]

Snow cone in the backyard. They're gonna jump a little at first.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, now, coming up, we have dating compatibility. We have the legal Lent menu, among other things, so we're certainly looking forward to that.

[Chick McGee]

I don't think legal is the word you want there.

[Tom Griswold]

Let's say. There you go. Permissible.

[Chick McGee]

Permissible.

[Tom Griswold]

I thought it was a. I thought if you don't. Isn't the rule. If you eat meat on Friday and you're a Catholic, you go to hell.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I don't totally know the rules, and I don't think it's straight to hell.

[Tom Griswold]

Purgatory.

[Chick McGee]

First.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't just stop and burn in purgatory.

[Pat Godwin]

No limbo.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, first off, purgatory isn't where you burn. No, it's where you just sit.

[Tom Griswold]

Just going to warm up like the warming oven.

[Christy Lee]

That's how they preheating. Keep Catholic kids in line as they throw that purgatory at them all the time.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, well, we got the Lent menu, and oddly enough, it does include some things that one might perceive as being meat but are apparently perfectly legal, including beaver. And we have.

[Josh Arnold]

God.

[Pat Godwin]

Me, I'm only a guitar player. Poor Pat.

[Josh Arnold]

I looked over. He was just shaking his good beaver.

[Tom Griswold]

You just had a huge. A huge home run.

[Josh Arnold]

Thank you. Now, you want to follow it up with a single.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's kind of backwards.

[Tom Griswold]

The promo line is, you can eat beaver for Lent, fellas. How about that? It make you feel better? Now, Christy, I know you're running off to a special event.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

So I believe Chris will step in.

[Christy Lee]

She's very capable. Probably better than me these days.

[Tom Griswold]

And we do not have an update on our other young lady. Ms. Alseman. Okay.

[Christy Lee]

Has not had her baby yet.

[Tom Griswold]

No baby yet?

[Jess Hooker]

No. She goes to the doctor today. We'll have an update Monday.

[Tom Griswold]

All right. Okay. Possibly a baby.

[Christy Lee]

I never know.

[Jess Hooker]

I don't know.

[Christy Lee]

I went for my doctor's appointment like that, and an hour later, I was in labor.

[Chick McGee]

Hang on a second. Are we saying baby?

[Tom Griswold]

Baby. It's gonna be a baby.

[Christy Lee]

Do you think it's. Oh, we know it's a girl.

[Tom Griswold]

You know it's a girl.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

There's a side chick. Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

Headache?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, no, I already got one.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, maybe this will help.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a very good show.

[Pat Godwin]

What is that you're holding?

[Tom Griswold]

This is from Duke Cannon.

[Chick McGee]

I've got this stuff. I've ordered it on the recommendation of Mike Mark.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, whatever.

[Chick McGee]

And that stuff. I, I it.

[Tom Griswold]

This looks like a big hockey puck.

[Chick McGee]

It's amazing.

[Tom Griswold]

And inside is. It's called Duke Cannon Bloody Knuckles Hand Balm.

[Chick McGee]

This time of year I got bloody dry hands. This stuff really kicks ass.

[Tom Griswold]

Very important for me. It's fragrance free.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Because I don't like using fragrances.

[Chick McGee]

It's non greasy and I know you'll see non greasy and go. All right. No, this is. It's wonderful.

[Tom Griswold]

What a great name. Doesn't it sound like a TV show detective?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Duke Cannon. It's not a. It's not a commercial. We just found it.

[Tom Griswold]

I just have some of the stuff and I had it delivered.

[Josh Arnold]

That's great.

[Chick McGee]

Commercial form stuff.

[Tom Griswold]

Now where we. Oh, Ms. Hooker is sitting in for Ms. Lee at this point. Christie's on her way to a special event.

[Chick McGee]

She's gonna fly a dolphin now. Christie ride a dolphin.

[Tom Griswold]

Christie is our resident Catholic now.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat Godwin. You are. You're a former altar boy.

[Pat Godwin]

Yes, indeed.

[Tom Griswold]

Raised Catholic, huh?

[Chick McGee]

And must have been an ugly, ugly little kid.

[Tom Griswold]

Huh? And, and what is the. So the rule is Ash Wednesday was. Was obviously a couple days ago.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And this is a monster ash.

[Tom Griswold]

It's unbelievable. He's got a headache. Ruin us all. It's a. You're supposed to give up, I guess. Meat Ex on Fridays during. Is that the thing? Has it always been that way?

[Pat Godwin]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Just during lentil.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Used to, didn't it used to be every day. I mean every Friday.

[Chick McGee]

Every Friday. Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

It used to be every Friday.

[Jess Hooker]

Every Friday and then all the holy days.

[Tom Griswold]

Right.

[Jess Hooker]

I'm also Catholic.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I didn't know you knew this. But I didn't realize it. You can relate to this then. But I did a little bit of research. This story came around last year and I checked it Yesterday. And this is still completely valid.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Is it an update of a non update of a story that we.

[Tom Griswold]

Go ahead. It's from Food and Wine magazine. I think the Catholics listening might want to know that there are certain things you can eat besides.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, my favorite thing to eat if. If I were in that situation would be McDonald's filet o fish.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. That's usually the go to. And you always know when lint is coming because they start advertising the commercial.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, man.

[Jess Hooker]

Is it a twofer like deal with.

[Josh Arnold]

You can get a double 99 this time of year.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, a double.

[Tom Griswold]

It's the best. But do you want to go ahead?

[Jess Hooker]

Sure. Some Catholic officials have ruled that alligator, beaver and even capybara.

[Chick McGee]

Huh.

[Jess Hooker]

Are okay to eat during Lent.

[Tom Griswold]

Capybara, Is that the giant guinea pig like thing?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it's the world's largest rodent and they live pretty much in and around rivers. So maybe they're considering that's why.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, see, that's where this goes.

[Jess Hooker]

During the 40 day period preceding Easter, many Catholics will abstain from eating meat on Fridays. And some even do it the entire 40 days.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

A lot.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah. They'll do some somewhat of a fast when it's just no meat.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So you go meatless, but they're still drinking booze, right?

[Jess Hooker]

Well, some people, unless they gave it up.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That's got to be rough.

[Jess Hooker]

Chick, what do you give up for Lent?

[Chick McGee]

I give up trying sweets this year. I. I have too many sweets.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, I thought you always said self denial.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's.

[Tom Griswold]

That's me.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, that's hard.

[Tom Griswold]

Chick gives up hope.

[Chick McGee]

I just give up and I just give up.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

According to Food and Wine magazine, a man in Louisiana sought clarification on the meat rule, specifically whether he could eat alligator meat.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a fair question.

[Jess Hooker]

That is fair.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. I could see him going to his priest or archdiocese and asking, so is that seafood? That's what this guy wanted to know. Right.

[Tom Griswold]

And they pretty much said that's what this guy. Archbishop whatever it is, Floyd Ramono, Gregory M. Amen. I was close.

[Jess Hooker]

Responded saying he could eat alligator during Lent as the reptile is considered in the fish family.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, so is octopus in the fish family? Yes. Don't they have octopus at Mexican restaurants? Isn't like pulo or something or.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, really?

[Chick McGee]

Pusso or something?

[Jess Hooker]

I think.

[Josh Arnold]

Boy, it's been a while since I've had a mouthful of puso.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. I'm not sure what they call it in.

[Tom Griswold]

Have you had any butt Steak Spain.

[Chick McGee]

Talk more butt, steak more buckstead. Another stone cone in the backyard.

[Josh Arnold]

Remember hearing pork butt when you were a kid? Kid? Oh, yeah, man, that's.

[Tom Griswold]

It's delightful.

[Josh Arnold]

No, I know, but man, the thing

[Tom Griswold]

about this is they're rather than going with the traditional scientific definitions of what is and isn't meat, if you will. I mean, it's pretty clear that a copy burrow is essentially a land capybara, whatever the hell it's called.

[Josh Arnold]

Right. Obviously that only affects if you, if you are Catholic in the Amazon.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean, but it does say you can eat beaver, which is, you know, you build your own joke there.

[Josh Arnold]

So pretty much any animal that lives in the water a fair amount of time.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

According. According to Archbishop whatever I said his name. Gregory.

[Jess Hooker]

This is in Louisiana.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

So it makes total sense.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. That's what available.

[Christy Lee]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Then eat local.

[Pat Godwin]

The neutral rats. You're allowed to eat them then, right?

[Chick McGee]

Nutria nutrient.

[Tom Griswold]

I guess so.

[Chick McGee]

It's a rat hat. They make hats out of that.

[Pat Godwin]

I was on the Nutra rat diet for a while. Did you know that?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Was it nutria system?

[Tom Griswold]

That's an interesting diet, the Nutris system diet.

[Josh Arnold]

You can only eat river rats.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah. And you have to, they, they, they bring them out on your plate whole. So it makes it very. That you, you eat less when you look at the disgusting tail and little rat teeth.

[Chick McGee]

Octopus is called at Mexican restaurants. Polo.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Polpo. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

P U, L, P O. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I've only had it at Asian restaurants. In, in Indonesia. I've never had it at a Mexican restaurant.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no kidding.

[Jess Hooker]

I've only had it at Italian restaurants.

[Chick McGee]

It's. Oh, I have that. I have.

[Pat Godwin]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So I have a question. Can you eat for Lent? Are you allowed to eat chicken?

[Jess Hooker]

No, no, no, no.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, is that right?

[Tom Griswold]

That's considered meat.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, so it really is. White meat is considered meat.

[Josh Arnold]

Gotcha. Gotcha.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, how about manatee?

[Pat Godwin]

I'm gonna say yes.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

As long as nobody sees you.

[Josh Arnold]

Boy, I bet that's. That's gristle.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Real chewy blubber.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. Manatees are mammals, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

They breathe air and they just swim down. Okay.

[Jess Hooker]

But so are beavers.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, they are.

[Pat Godwin]

They're making loopholes

[Tom Griswold]

now.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm a mammal.

[Jess Hooker]

We could eat you.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you? Pepperoni. No pepperoni then.

[Jess Hooker]

Right, no pepperoni.

[Chick McGee]

What?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, I hear they're working on making swimming chickens.

[Josh Arnold]

They are.

[Tom Griswold]

So you could. Because, well, we have chickens in the news.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, we do, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

We have.

[Jess Hooker]

Let me look.

[Chick McGee]

Do you remember there Was a chickens theme to one of the connections puzzles A couple weeks. Yeah, maybe last week.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And it proved you right because we had that argument on the air. What sound do chickens make? And I said it was Bach and you said it was buck. And it is. It was in the connections as buck.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, they did a squawk or whatever it was.

[Jess Hooker]

How they spell it.

[Chick McGee]

It. B, U, C, K. Really? Yeah. I was surprised.

[Tom Griswold]

It was a trick. They. They try to have five things that sound the same. Okay. In the category we.

[Chick McGee]

Well, that went nowhere.

[Tom Griswold]

We have.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, no. Yeah, he's right.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You brought it up as well. Said.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, no. I. I'm blaming myself. Josh is drinking his coffee like we waiting for a bus.

[Tom Griswold]

We have a. A chicken slaughter coming up in the news.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, no. Like for good or like as in it's going to feed a lot of people or.

[Tom Griswold]

No, it's going to make things a little quieter.

[Chick McGee]

Only good chickens.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, no, they're feral chickens.

[Chick McGee]

They're cutting their vocal cords out.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, they can do that after they've killed them.

[Josh Arnold]

Chick, you have gone on record as saying you would like to ring a chicken's neck.

[Chick McGee]

I would. I think that would be fun.

[Jess Hooker]

I can make that happen next week.

[Chick McGee]

No kidding.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

I can just go grab a chicken and.

[Jess Hooker]

No, I'll bring the chicken and we'll. We'll go out to the parking lot and you can ring its neck.

[Chick McGee]

See, being confronted with this, I don't think there's any way I could do it. I know I'm feeling squirmy already.

[Tom Griswold]

Wouldn't the chicken be defecating as you.

[Jess Hooker]

I'm not sure how the breakdown happens.

[Chick McGee]

What documentary is it where they're on hard times and they're. They're raising rabbits and the woman kills a rabbit.

[Pat Godwin]

Roger and me.

[Chick McGee]

Roger.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, that's right.

[Chick McGee]

Hits him in the head with a bat.

[Tom Griswold]

Christy has that story. She was in Central America, remember this? And she was in the kitchen of these people, and they had this sort of pit full of guinea pigs and. Oh, they're so sweet. And that they were raising them to eat them.

[Josh Arnold]

Please don't play with our dinner.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, look, your dinner's pushing a ball across.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't want to name them, you know.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And there's Gilby. He's going to be ready to eat in about three days.

[Chick McGee]

That was your. Now, don't let that go. Tell Jess. Who?

[Tom Griswold]

Gilby was a friend of my dad's, Mr. Moser. His favorite gin was Gilby's Gin.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Looking for a name for my guinea pig. And that. That's the one that's stuck.

[Tom Griswold]

There we go. Frame. This is. It looks like a traditional frame, except it's got rotating photographs in it that you place in there and it's got unlimited space and you could even put videos in there. This is a terrific gift. When we first started talking about these, I immediately got one for my house.

[Chick McGee]

My friends in Austin, they have one of these on their kitchen counter and had a party and everybody was stopping at the kitchen counter looking at the aura. Couldn't get them out of there.

[Tom Griswold]

And you could, if you were in Austin? I could load pictures from right here.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I'm gonna. I'll do this in quiz form.

Oh, yeah, that's right.

[Josh Arnold]

What is today?

[Tom Griswold]

3-9-20? But here's happy birthday. Or Sidney Poitier. Call me Mr. Pibb.

[Chick McGee]

That would have been a very.

[Pat Godwin]

I like that.

[Chick McGee]

So it would be a very different movie, wouldn't it?

[Josh Arnold]

Don't you love in the Heat of the Night?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah. I wonder if they. Do you think Mr. Pibb ever went up to him and said, hey, would you do this commercial for him?

[Jess Hooker]

I don't think so.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you get the joke?

[Chick McGee]

So they call me Mr. Tibbs. Was the sequel. Right, right.

[Josh Arnold]

The name of the sequel.

[Tom Griswold]

But yes, he says that in the movie.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

In the Heat of the Night. And he wasn't in the TV show.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no.

[Tom Griswold]

Then there was, of course, famous for Guess who's Coming to Dinner?

Charles Barkley, the great basketball player, Chuck.

[Jess Hooker]

I just love him.

[Tom Griswold]

Happy birthday to Charles. Sir Charles French Stewart.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, he's funny. I like. I liked him.

[Pat Godwin]

Also married to the nurse in the pit that was married to Dennis Hopper. Did you know that?

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Pat Godwin]

Crazy.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Wow.

[Pat Godwin]

That was her second husband after Dennis Hopper.

[Josh Arnold]

How about that?

[Pat Godwin]

The nurse in the pit.

[Jess Hooker]

That's wild.

[Tom Griswold]

Not a fan of their dressing.

[Chick McGee]

French Stewart was French Stewart.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you like French dressing?

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, No.

[Tom Griswold]

I hate it.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay. What's that?

[Josh Arnold]

You're a big fan, Ace. Not a big fan, but I eat it. Oh, okay.

[Jess Hooker]

What's the difference between French and Catalina?

[Josh Arnold]

You can't Catalina that dressing up your butt 130 miles.

[Tom Griswold]

Perfect. Okay, those are both great answers, and I will accept them both. Happy birthday, Cindy Crawford.

[Chick McGee]

Still got that thing on her face.

[Jess Hooker]

Easy.

[Tom Griswold]

Married to which of the following. Clint Howard.

[Josh Arnold]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

Danny Trejo or Richard Gere?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, Richard Gere.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I guess they did get married.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, I forgot all about that.

[Tom Griswold]

Happy. Oh, that's too.

[Josh Arnold]

There was a porn star named Cindy Crawford. Oh, gosh. Early 2000s, I'm gonna say. And they were like, you know, you shouldn't really go with that. And she goes. It's my real name.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Actually using my real name.

[Tom Griswold]

So not only.

[Josh Arnold]

It was one of the rare porn stars who used her real name, but it sounded like it wasn't real.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Happy birthday, Rihanna.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

From what? Barbados. Is that right?

[Pat Godwin]

Barbados is correct.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. She's a billionaire, apparently.

[Josh Arnold]

I like that umbrella song.

[Jess Hooker]

Mostly from makeup. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Did she also do chandelier? Swinging from the chandelier deal.

[Pat Godwin]

I thought that was Sabrina.

[Chick McGee]

Umbrella song. Ella.

[Tom Griswold]

Ella.

[Josh Arnold]

That.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Happy birthday, Olivia Rodrigo. She had that great song a couple years ago. Driver's License.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I'm not familiar.

[Tom Griswold]

It's huge. Huge hit.

[Chick McGee]

Well, you.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, but I just don't listen to.

[Tom Griswold]

She is actually.

[Chick McGee]

You got the lowdown with your little girl.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

But she's kind of responsible for what we were talking about yesterday, the dirty soda.

[Jess Hooker]

She is. She did hers with Diet Coke and pickle juice.

[Tom Griswold]

And it was developed. It was developed by a woman in Utah. And I guess. I think. I think maybe this got anything to

[Chick McGee]

do with the LDs. So they.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, they don't have.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

This woman in Utah developed this. They call it Dirty Soda. And it's. There's a whole bunch. There's one called.

[Josh Arnold]

What is it?

[Tom Griswold]

Swig.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, that's everywhere.

[Tom Griswold]

And apparently Olivia Rodrigo was waving. Run around on her Instagram and it got.

[Jess Hooker]

We had it. We tried it.

[Josh Arnold]

I have a special news update.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Is that right? I don't mean to interrupt, but this does bear interrupting. Chick earlier referenced a joke that he couldn't quite remember about hockey. Women's hockey.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's right.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, we have the joke. It's a. Kevin. Our friend Kevin has sent it in. You ready for it?

[Tom Griswold]

I'd like to protest in advance.

[Chick McGee]

I'd love to hear it.

[Josh Arnold]

Do you know why female hockey players are so dirty? They only change their pads after three periods.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Thanks.

[Chick McGee]

That's the one I was thinking of.

[Tom Griswold]

In the wake of the heroic victory of the American women's hockey team, you dust off that.

[Josh Arnold]

I promise you, it was wonderful. The women in the USA Hockey team have heard that Joe say the most vile things way more than we ever.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah, probably. Yeah. No, that one's from Cleveland. Tight. So high. Ohio.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, really?

[Chick McGee]

Does that make her better?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, that happens to be where the famous brothers. The Mrs. Excuse me, Mr. Taylor Swift.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah, they were there.

[Tom Griswold]

Cleveland Heights.

[Josh Arnold]

Kelsey and his wife were there.

[Tom Griswold]

Back to our Today in History. This is interesting. In 1959, Jimi Hendrix was fired from his band on their first gig for being too wild. Wow. You didn't see Les Paul set his guitar on fire. Although it would have been offender, I guess. Lastly, in Today in History, this is a great story. John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth.

[Josh Arnold]

Allegedly, huh?

[Tom Griswold]

Not allegedly. It's a great book about John Glenn. What is Mercury Rising? It's not called Glenn or Glenda, but that'll do it for today.

[Jess Hooker]

And happy birthday to Aaron. One more time, Double A. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

BB R O N From our staff.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm going on record as saying, and I hope Aaron's listening, he got ripped off because it's his birthday. And we have combined. Jess bringing in a huckleberry pie. Anyway, with that also being his birthday

[Jess Hooker]

dessert, I'm making him his own cake.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Jess Hooker]

I feel terrible that I forgot that it was his birthday.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, Pat, you hear that?

[Pat Godwin]

I heard you're making him his own cake.

[Jess Hooker]

I am not even gonna buy it at the grocery store.

[Pat Godwin]

You're not gonna bring him a Kroger cake?

[Jess Hooker]

No, no.

[Tom Griswold]

Wasn't good enough for that.

[Josh Arnold]

Kroger cake was delicious.

[Tom Griswold]

Jess, what have you got over there at the news desk?

[Jess Hooker]

Lawmakers in Hawaii are considering a measure that will allow residents to kill feral chickens that have been plaguing communities for years.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, they are. They cause a problem in Hawaii. These things are everywhere.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, but at the same time, aren't eggs notoriously expensive in Hawaii?

[Jess Hooker]

I don't think you Eat feral chicken eggs.

[Josh Arnold]

Maybe you don't.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe a bit game when you break them. Wouldn't they have little baby chickens inside them?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it's.

[Chick McGee]

They've been spewed on like a. I know that.

[Jess Hooker]

Like surf and turf.

[Chick McGee]

I know prices are slightly higher in Alaska and Hawaii. I've seen that.

[Tom Griswold]

They're not slightly higher, they're way higher.

[Jess Hooker]

Early crowing and aggressive pecking are just some of the complaints Hawaiians have had.

[Chick McGee]

I've got this thing in my neighborhood there a chicken moved in a rooster, like I'm gonna say six months ago and he. He crows a lot.

[Josh Arnold]

And it's not just in the morning.

[Chick McGee]

No. Yeah, it's all day long.

[Josh Arnold]

There's one near my house too. And it's like what the hell are you doing? It's 3:30pm yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, not just in the morning.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

No, they're looking for chicks.

[Tom Griswold]

Chicks?

[Chick McGee]

Literally.

[Tom Griswold]

I mean literally.

[Josh Arnold]

Who am I gonna bang is what they say.

[Tom Griswold]

Or hens, I guess. Not chicks. Unless you've got the Epstein chickens.

[Chick McGee]

Give me that booty. Can we give that word a rest please?

[Josh Arnold]

How do you. Dude, so many people out there with the last name Epstein, right? Just having to deal with this.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

One of the sweathogs last name Epstein. Yeah. Good gravy.

[Jess Hooker]

Well, lawmakers have since introduced a chicken killing bill that will allow residents to dispatch feral birds at their discretion.

[Chick McGee]

Mr. Speaker, I'd like a swift resolution to my chicken killing meal. What do you say? Representative Griswold?

[Tom Griswold]

There's no spec. Specifications. If you what? Can you kill them any way you want?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I wonder if you shoot them or. What do you mean?

[Chick McGee]

Lethal injection.

[Josh Arnold]

Step on them. That's awful. And if you kill them, can you eat them?

[Tom Griswold]

Do feral chickens taste good? Wouldn't they.

[Josh Arnold]

I would think they would taste better than farm raised.

[Tom Griswold]

I would think they'd be sinewy and awful.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, they've been eating trash. Just wandering around, you know they're.

[Josh Arnold]

They find grubs and stuff.

[Chick McGee]

You know they're eating trash.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, they're eating Hawaiian bread.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, well that would be a great slider.

[Josh Arnold]

So they're naturally sweet.

[Tom Griswold]

Have you seen the slider size Hawaiian bread?

[Josh Arnold]

Have I seen the slider?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, sorry, I forgot that you. You papered one room with.

[Josh Arnold]

The only thing I don't like about them is that they're slider sized.

[Tom Griswold]

That Hawaiian bread. King's Hawaiian bread. Greatest you could do like Hawaiian fried chicken. Hfc. Yes, but yeah. I doesn't say how their people are going to kill. Kill them.

[Jess Hooker]

No, we tried to trap them. It's too expensive and it's unsuccessful.

[Josh Arnold]

They're Aggressive peckers. That's so funny. They just come up and peck you. How'd you let you just be sitting in your backyard all of a sudden?

[Tom Griswold]

Aggressive Peckers does sound like a neurotic movie. Aggressive Peckers 2. Starring Dick Ramrod or something subtle.

[Jess Hooker]

Would you be comfortable just picking up a chicken, just.

[Josh Arnold]

No, not at all.

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

I wouldn't.

[Josh Arnold]

I mean, Rocky had trouble catching one.

[Chick McGee]

Not a. Not a duck either. I don't. I wouldn't pick up any kind of large birds.

[Tom Griswold]

Since they're going to be slaughtering these chickens, it's only appropriate that we play this great song from Sean Moore.

[Chick McGee]

Yuck.

[Pat Godwin]

A chicken farmer.

[Chick McGee]

One out.

[Tom Griswold]

One dark and windy day. Everybody, come on.

[Josh Arnold]

There's chickens in the sk.

[Tom Griswold]

The farmer had raised chickens since he was 24.

[Chick McGee]

Working for the colonel for 30 years or more, killing all those chickens and

[Tom Griswold]

sending them to fry. Now they want revenge. Ghost chickens in the sky Everybody.

[Chick McGee]

Beaks were black and shiny. Their eyes were burning red.

[Tom Griswold]

They had no meat or feathers.

[Chick McGee]

These chickens were dead. They picked the farmer up and he

[Tom Griswold]

died by the claw.

[Chick McGee]

They cooked them extra crispy and ate them with coleslaw.

[Tom Griswold]

Everybody.

[Chick McGee]

Chickens in the sky.

[Tom Griswold]

Sean Murray. I love that song. Thank you very much, Sean.

[Josh Arnold]

You like Ghost Riders in the Sky?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that what that's based on? I thought that was an original melody.

[Josh Arnold]

That is a good one. Ghost Rider.

[Chick McGee]

That is terrific.

[Tom Griswold]

Now, Ms. Hooker, anything else of interest over there?

[Jess Hooker]

A new breakthrough could finally unlock male brain birth control. Scientists at Michigan State University have uncovered the so called molecular switch that gives sperm the energy that they need to dash and fertilize an egg.

[Tom Griswold]

And I have a suggestion.

[Josh Arnold]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

For our friends in East Lansing. Since this research is coming out of Michigan State University, I say we call the. Whatever this male birth control is. If it's a cream or a bill, whatever we could. I wanted to call it Magic John Johnson.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I like it.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't you think?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Would you like to have Magic Johnson?

[Josh Arnold]

When it comes to. I don't want anything named after Magic Johnson.

[Chick McGee]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

It would be AIDS free, of course.

[Chick McGee]

Well, now, now.

[Josh Arnold]

AIDS free, we promise. AIDS free.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe. It was always a curious story. Wasn't you ever.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Do you ever think before you talk?

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, that's a valid job.

[Josh Arnold]

Otherwise. Magic Johnson. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Would be a great name for it. Yeah, that'd be a great name for an erectile dysfunction thing.

[Chick McGee]

Also a Magic Johnson.

[Tom Griswold]

Or you could name it after the harmonica player in the Jay Gyles band.

[Josh Arnold]

Who's that?

[Tom Griswold]

Magic Dick.

[Chick McGee]

Magic Dick.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I didn't know that.

[Tom Griswold]

That's his name. Huh?

[Chick McGee]

Blow your face out, Dicky.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, the best.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, that is good stuff. Magic Dick.

[Tom Griswold]

That's his name.

[Jess Hooker]

It's a good name.

[Josh Arnold]

He's a magic. Do a heart version of that.

[Chick McGee]

He's a magic dude.

[Jess Hooker]

Researchers plan to continue investigating how sperm rely on different fuel sources in order to help develop a non hormonal birth control for men. So there you go.

[Pat Godwin]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

So it would be.

[Josh Arnold]

It would make them so lazy they wouldn't even get to the egg.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, that's what it sounds like.

[Tom Griswold]

So the only way they'd get there is if they were in a lazy river. They're not going to swim.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

I understand that essentially, this male birth control effectively involves serious punches to the groin area.

[Chick McGee]

Is that right?

[Josh Arnold]

They just have a doctor.

[Tom Griswold]

Vigorous punching of the nuts.

[Jess Hooker]

Would you guys take it? I guess if you were of age to need it.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know if. Well, somebody is.

[Jess Hooker]

Sorry, buddy, you're still in.

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, he'll put a baby in you right now. Right?

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. If they're not going to go with my Magic Johnson idea.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Chick McGee]

How about only if you put Now AIDS free on the label.

[Tom Griswold]

How about Sperma Mint?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. You mean like phenomen?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, or Spearmint. Oh, I thought you were going more like.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, well, it is more like spearmint, but yeah. Phenomena is the Sperma Mint. Oh, there was a story. Oh, gosh.

[Josh Arnold]

How about the Sperminator?

[Tom Griswold]

That's very good.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you terminate the sperm?

[Tom Griswold]

There was a news story about a, I guess a teacher that allegedly gave all the kids laxative gum. Oh, I'll have to dig that.

[Josh Arnold]

On accident, of course.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, no, no.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, no. Yeah, As a prank.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll dig it up. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Jess Hooker]

For punishment.

[Chick McGee]

She'd had it.

[Tom Griswold]

Do they still make phenomenal.

[Jess Hooker]

That sounds like a drug to me.

[Tom Griswold]

I think they do.

[Josh Arnold]

It does. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

There was a commercial when I was a kid was the laxative gum.

[Jess Hooker]

Why would anyone want a laxative gum?

[Chick McGee]

It really works.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you chew it or just put it.

[Tom Griswold]

These are all fair questions. I can see some foreign guy going, I thought it went in my butt.

[Chick McGee]

Go ahead. Oh, geez.

[Christy Lee]

Why?

[Chick McGee]

Why? That's like the fifth time he's done something like he. He loves going up and he wants

[Josh Arnold]

to get canceled so he doesn't have to retire.

[Tom Griswold]

Exactly. That's.

[Chick McGee]

And having us be yelled at instead

[Tom Griswold]

of him coming up. We have more delightful news for you. Right now, I want to talk about. Christie's our car gal, and she's currently driving a beautiful Hyundai.

[Chick McGee]

That's where she is. She had to leave the show so she could go drive her car. She loves it so much.

[Tom Griswold]

She's in her Hyundai on her way to the airport right now. The Hyundai Palisade Hybrid has got some pretty cool stats for you. I'll let you know. For example, EPA estimated 619 miles of range. This is the Hyundai Palisade Hybrid. Also, the famous motto, no cleats on the seats because the back seat is actually, what do they call them, captain's chairs. And then in back of that, what we used to call the wayback in my mom and dad's station wagon back in the day, the wayback, you don't have to climb over the back seat to get to the rear seat. So it's no cleats in the seats, no mud. And it holds seven people. And it's a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful vehicle. The Hyundai, the Hyundai Palisade hybrid. Go to HyundaiUSA.com for lots of information or even call them 562-314-4603. Just easier to go to Hyundai USA.com and see what's going on there. Remember that EPA estimated 619 miles of range. Get all the kids in the car on your way to soccer practice or lacrosse or hockey, whatever you're into. Now when we come back, we once again have Ms. Hook sitting in for Christy Lee over there at the Bob and Tom news desk. I think we should probably get to this. It's a survey about what time you go to bed in relationship to your relationship, if you will. Does she go to bed when you go to bed? And what are the stats on that? We're gonna find out from the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the BOB and TOM Show.

[Announcer]

Got a comment to share? Text us at 888-262-8661. This this is the BOB and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. We're the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Thank O'Reilly Auto Parts for all your car care needs. Get the parts and service you need fast from the professional parts people at O'Reilly Auto Parts. There's Jess Hooker. Hello. She's at the News Center. There's Pat Godwin.

[Pat Godwin]

Patrick.

[Chick McGee]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi there.

[Chick McGee]

There's a Cosby. Hello. I'm Chick McGee. Hello, Tom. What do you got going on over there?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just getting ready to hear Ms. Hooker talk about whatever she's got on her mind in the world of news. Okay.

[Jess Hooker]

A new survey suggests the secret to a happy marriage might be as simple as going to bed at the same time.

[Chick McGee]

Huh.

[Jess Hooker]

Talker research pulled 2, 000 married Americans and found the average couple has an 80 minute bedtime gap several times a week.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Jess Hooker]

Day couples who reported being very happy said they go to bed together about four times a week, compared to just once a week for less happy couples.

[Josh Arnold]

Interesting.

[Tom Griswold]

Now we are all in a situation typically in which we go to bed fairly early because we get up quite early, so. Yeah, no, that's not the case on weekends.

[Jess Hooker]

No. But I bet you still don't wake up at the same time, right?

[Tom Griswold]

No, yeah, I get up even on the weekends. I'm, I'm up and out the door.

[Chick McGee]

Isn't there, is there something that goes on as you, as you age, you need less sleep or you. It just seems like you get up earlier and earlier. It does as, as you get older, don't you think?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I wonder what that is.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know what the deal is.

[Tom Griswold]

Maybe it's going to the cafeteria at 4 o' clock for the early bird special.

[Josh Arnold]

What does come first? The early dinner or the early rise? And then you just want dinner early.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, Pat, when you're doing the ships, you're doing your comedy shows on the ships, do they have an early bird?

[Pat Godwin]

Well, it's food all day. They close up for a couple hours during the night, but you could pretty much.

[Josh Arnold]

Do you see a lot of older clientele at 4 o'? Clock? Absolutely, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Do they have you do a early evening show on some of the ships?

[Pat Godwin]

On one of the ships they did a lunch thing and then they discontinued that. They tried that for a while, didn't work out that well.

[Tom Griswold]

But I mean, is there like a six o' clock comedy show? There's.

[Pat Godwin]

The earliest one would be 7:30.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

They didn't do an late afternoon show, but.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. So this, this is interesting. So the, the essence of this article is that people that go to bed at the same time, percentage wise, seem to be happier. I. Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

It says coordinated bedtimes were also linked to better sleep with 40% saying they rest better together.

[Josh Arnold]

That makes sense. They're not, they don't have somebody else crawling into bed, waking them up, jostling

[Pat Godwin]

the bed, TV's on.

[Josh Arnold]

Right.

[Tom Griswold]

But people with kids, that becomes a whole different ball game.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes. And school schedules and things like that.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah. I think separate bedrooms is key.

[Chick McGee]

You like that.

[Josh Arnold]

Don't you and I. And the numbers show that divorce rates among couples who have separate bedrooms is much lower.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

How do you feel about using the vacuum cleaner at 6:30am on a Sunday morning? Because you're up new.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, no, I've taken a coffee grinder outside to the garage to grind coffee at that early in the morning.

[Josh Arnold]

Have you been.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I. The only thing I have done is I have used the leaf blower, but it's far enough away from the bedroom. But then I talked to you guys and you said for the sake of the neighbors.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Even 8 o' clock on a Sunday is too early for the leaf blower.

[Josh Arnold]

Absolutely.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

So you're especially considerate. You're considerate of your neighbors, but not the people that live in your house.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no, no, I, I don't. And I don't run the blender or anything. Early in the morning, I get up and I leave the house, go to

[Chick McGee]

get coffee because coffee's out there.

[Tom Griswold]

Coffee's out there.

[Josh Arnold]

Do you kind of not want. Do you get disappointed, let's say, if on a Saturday morning somebody's up a little earlier than they normally are and you didn't get all of your Saturday morning time?

[Tom Griswold]

Precisely.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, dude.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

But that, that never that. I've got a whole routine.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

I call that the soft open. Like, I'm gonna be up by myself for about an hour. Nobody else needs to be up.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

That's how I think.

[Tom Griswold]

That's brilliant. I totally agree.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Nobody else needs to be up.

[Tom Griswold]

And my. And my girl Kelly does not like me to interrogate her first thing in the morning. She. She prefers. No, she prefers no questions of any kind. So she's very happy that I'm out having coffee. Are you.

[Jess Hooker]

That's good.

[Chick McGee]

Are you the one that used the word interrogating or she used the word interrogator?

[Tom Griswold]

I. I've. I've absorbed that thought. Based on her reaction, I get that.

[Jess Hooker]

Like someone who's not a morning person.

[Chick McGee]

How are you this morning?

[Pat Godwin]

No questions.

[Tom Griswold]

But now I'll be here in the morning. I'll be here, you know, four in the morning and paddle walk in. And half the time I won't even say hello.

[Chick McGee]

Morning. How'd you sleep? What is this, an interrogation?

[Pat Godwin]

We don't need a hello or mark

[Tom Griswold]

right here will walk in and. And I'll. I won't say a word to him. Then about a half an hour later, I'll say. Say good morning.

[Josh Arnold]

See, I need to. I, I would be my Best if I woke up earlier than I do now and had an hour at home and then came in here. But because I want more sleep, I'm not doing that. So instead I just come in and take it out on the people who write letters to us.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, I've noticed it.

[Pat Godwin]

You're actually just a little quiet. No joke here. Getting your coffee or not. Some days.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Pat Godwin]

And you kind of.

[Josh Arnold]

You can read that sometimes. I'm not ready to rush yet. It's not fair to you guys.

[Jess Hooker]

No, but Josh is definitely like the 6 o' clock hour. Speak when spoken to. Like you don't. You just don't.

[Josh Arnold]

Which isn't. Which is no.

[Jess Hooker]

Good.

[Josh Arnold]

Because we're on the air.

[Jess Hooker]

No, but we love you.

[Tom Griswold]

And I think I have noted on the. On the air that first break, there may be either nothing or hostility coming from you.

[Chick McGee]

Think about it. It's 25% of your job from 6 to 7.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, but if we said you don't have to come in till 7, you'd be crappy from 7.

[Josh Arnold]

Exactly. I wouldn't alter. Yeah.

[Pat Godwin]

And I bet that changes.

[Chick McGee]

I found that.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

If I. I get up at like, you know, three or four and I, you know, watch Sports center and I hang out. I have a pretzel nug and I'm. I'm fine.

[Josh Arnold]

You're better off than just coming straight in.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, Yeah. I can't.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Jess Hooker]

You're fine when you get here? Is that what you.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah. I'm just fine when I get here. Listen. I know.

[Tom Griswold]

Careful. Wait, wait. Hang on.

[Chick McGee]

A lot of static.

[Tom Griswold]

Careful.

[Jess Hooker]

I know.

[Tom Griswold]

We got to just hold him for three more minutes.

[Jess Hooker]

This will make. This will put you in a good mood.

[Chick McGee]

This will put you in a good mood.

[Jess Hooker]

Shut up.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, my God.

[Pat Godwin]

You know your audience.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, I do. I just got all the Reeses, all the different Reese's that you can. So we can do a tape test.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, great.

[Jess Hooker]

And find which ones are best. We'll do this Monday.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, cool. Because we have a news story that the. Mr. Reese. The. What is it? Grandson of the original. Whatever it is. HB Reese contends that they're not making them by the original recipe.

[Jess Hooker]

No, these are all different.

[Tom Griswold]

And the Reese Hershey company that makes them says that the standard Reese's cups are the original recipe.

[Josh Arnold]

I want you to know there is a 60% chance that this weekend I come in here and eat all of those. Before we. Before we get to the.

[Jess Hooker]

I have a lot locked drawer that I.

[Josh Arnold]

That I do.

[Jess Hooker]

I put things away on Friday.

[Josh Arnold]

That's smart. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

There's a 70 chance I come in and eat what you have.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay, good. Thank you very much. You can find out more about the show visit our website. It's of course.

[Chick McGee]

I guess I'll go home and work on my attitude.

[Tom Griswold]

See, I told you we had three minutes to go and you blew it.
