[Chick McGee]

Ba da ba ba ba I participate in restaurants for a limited time.

[Tom Griswold]

It's the Bob and Tom show.

[Josh Arnold]

Those liars of ours back when I was in School said 2010 would be future cool. The gasoline engine would be a thing of the past. We'd get our own little rockets that would fly real fast. I couldn't wait to start flying around with a four hour erection that wouldn't go down. I'd impress and undress every woman in town and I couldn't wait for that to get off the ground. Now I'm sitting here, there's a cop over there Me and him supposed to be up in the air him saying tell when you're way too drunk to fly I'll have to write you up for an F U I I'm stuck in an 89 Pontiac I'm supposed to be a flying sex maniac so where's that contraption to strap on my back? Where the is my jet pack? Where the fuck is my J? Maybe Ross Perot could have finally got around to a tiny little rocket with a giant sucking sound. But Clinton came along with mainly women in mind and a giant sucking sound of a different kind. I can't smoke in my car I can't smoke in a bar Bob Dylan, still our biggest rock star. We made it to Mars and now the President's black. But where the is my jetpack? 4, 3, 2 where the is my jet pack?

[Edwin McCain]

T minus 4, 3 where the white is my jet?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, so much for the big show. And we're off. Hello, hello, hello to Mr. And Mrs. North America and all the ships at sea around the world. It's the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

South America too.

[Tom Griswold]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Nobody in South America is allowed to listen. If you're listening in South America, you're illegal right now.

[Josh Arnold]

That makes it all the tastier.

[Tom Griswold]

Look at him. Look at him. Don't say that. Oh, my God.

[Chick McGee]

No, I was actually entertaining the thought of a amusing line about that.

[Tom Griswold]

A coup.

[Chick McGee]

Then I realized I better not. We have South America news coming up this morning. In fact, it's my favorite story of the morning. It's going to lead to a great song from Pat Godwin.

[Tom Griswold]

I thought your favorite story of the morning was David Rush. Rush, Rush.

[Chick McGee]

That's a good one. Got a good David Rush world record. Very excited about that.

[Tom Griswold]

Stupid.

[Chick McGee]

And many other.

[Tom Griswold]

We've got great letters too this morning.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I want to send that one out. That's in honor of Tim Wilson who left us 11 years ago today. Great tune from Tim about the jet pack. And in a way, we have the jet pack now. The water jet packs.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't count those. Yeah, I don't count those. No, no. The first Super Bowl. A guy on a jetpack. Remember this, Tom?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you remember seeing him?

[Chick McGee]

Absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

These, these damn kids don't remember that.

[Chick McGee]

And there's of course we were talking about James Bond yesterday. James Bond in the news because I guess Amazon and MGM are taking over the James Bond franchise.

[Tom Griswold]

And my favorite story about James Bond in a jet pack was, is he thought he looked stupid in the jet pack helmet that they made him wear. So he refused to wear it. The stunt guy wore it most of the time. I guess he wore it for like 30 seconds so they could get a real quick picture of him.

[Chick McGee]

And it's super. That is super fake. Where? There. You can tell they're on a set. But they really did have a functioning jet pack even back then. But it really hasn't taken off.

[Tom Griswold]

He's a good looking man. But he did look stupid in the jetpack helmet. I gotta tell you, he was right.

[Chick McGee]

He looked much better in a tuxedo.

[Tom Griswold]

Certainly. I like the smoking.

[Chick McGee]

I like the Bond film where he came out of the water in a wetsuit, took it off and there was a perfectly pressed tuxedo on him. That was his classic. The larger point here is Josh is on phase two of the Josh Arnold winter's beard removal.

[Tom Griswold]

Amazing.

[Chick McGee]

And do you want to take it from. You can see him better than I can. What exactly is happening today?

[Tom Griswold]

He had a full bushy beard and last week he made the announcement that he was going to shave it clean and start all over as he does every year at this time.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, correct.

[Tom Griswold]

So he. It's a process though. And his first iteration, if you will, was a civil war look, no chin hair. Just on the chin part, but then big sideburns and hooked to a mustache.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, now he's made his mustache, I guess, a Fu Manchu. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Handlebar mustache. Fu Manchu is what it's often called.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what Confucius say, well, most men smoke, but Fu Manchu.

[Chick McGee]

I love that joke. Is it still okay?

[Tom Griswold]

And actually, do we have the Al Hraboski?

[Chick McGee]

No. Today, this is. So this is a bushy sideburns and a handlebar. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

So you. You'd kind of wanted to see the Neil Young pork chops you had said or something, and so I kind of did that.

[Chick McGee]

They're very nice.

[Josh Arnold]

Separated the mustache from them on the pork chop area. I did, and then I trimmed it up.

[Chick McGee]

Looks good.

[Josh Arnold]

So that it's more.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Right. But the. The mustache is distinct. It is separated by a little bit of flesh.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

From the sideburn.

[Tom Griswold]

That takes. I took some accurate shaving.

[Josh Arnold]

Too much.

[Tom Griswold]

Too much.

[Josh Arnold]

Like halfway through I went, oh, yeah, this is.

[Chick McGee]

No, that's why I get concerned when I see the pencil thin mustache. Because, you know, someone spent a great deal of time on the mirror thinking that that looks good.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I suggested yesterday he should shave lightning bolts into his. Into a sideburn.

[Josh Arnold]

I attempted.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Just to it.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. And it just. It didn't read, if you will. It didn't.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Here we go. Dear Bob and Tom show. I saw that Josh shaved his face and gave himself mutton chops. I wanted to say I rocked the mutton chops as well.

[Josh Arnold]

Nice.

[Chick McGee]

This is from another Josh. He goes, it's an underrated look. It needs to make a comeback. Then it's, stay classy, Josh.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it is pretty underrated.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I kind of. I mean, that's tough to follow. This, this. This pales in comparison to yesterday, I think. But that looks more.

[Chick McGee]

That looks more normal.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I think it looks worse.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, really?

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, no, no.

[Chick McGee]

Yesterday was worse.

[Josh Arnold]

Interesting.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I like. I did like, yesterday's better too, but oddly enough, I. I know you don't believe I really did. Do you remember pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals, Al Hraboski?

[Josh Arnold]

The mad Hungarian?

[Tom Griswold]

The mad Hungarian. Well, someone suggested that you do his hair. Facial hairstyle. And that's kind of what you've got.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I love that. Yeah, but that's. That's a little. That hangs down past the chin. His.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, he has. Where the. The mustache actually hangs a couple inches below his chin.

[Josh Arnold]

I could have done. I. It's too late for me to do that this year, but that's that's absolutely in the running for next year. He has headphones on his face.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Headphones over his lip.

[Tom Griswold]

Look at his glorious head of hair.

[Josh Arnold]

That's his gorgeous head.

[Tom Griswold]

That is so 80s.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah looking man.

[Tom Griswold]

That, that bushy say that I was smoldering.

[Chick McGee]

Isn't he blown dry look?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. The layered bone. Blown dry.

[Chick McGee]

Here we go. This is from Michael. Hello, Tom and fellow influencers. Yes, I was watching a random movie on Amazon called Conduct Unbecoming. Sixteen minutes into it, I see Josh's mutton chop beard on one of the 19th century British soldiers.

[Josh Arnold]

Nice.

[Chick McGee]

So also he says this may interest Tom in the movie the Bride Wore Black At 1 hour and 24 minutes, there's the appearance of a so called falsies carpet. A carpet made of 8,000 pairs of discarded women's falsies.

[Josh Arnold]

Weird.

[Chick McGee]

I, I, I just love the word falsies.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And when I was a kid, we discovered a pair of falsies in a friend of mine's mom's drawer.

[Tom Griswold]

We discovered.

[Josh Arnold]

And how old? I imagine.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, we, we could barely stand it. So, you know, we're holding them up against our shirts, parading around. Oh, I, I can even remember the guy. I can't say his name.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, hey, hey, Josh. Tom and one of his friends, they wore women were wearing falsies.

[Josh Arnold]

And this is a nice break from what he and his brothers used to do.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. At least you're clothed. You were totally naked. Unrelated. Jess, do you know this story? Him?

[Jess Hooker]

I do.

[Chick McGee]

I don't run around just. Are you familiar with the term falsies? Is that still a thing?

[Jess Hooker]

No, and I, I, I think it is. I want to ask. Well, I don't know what that is.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, bosses are. Well, go ahead, Teller.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a section that looks like a chicken cutlet, but it's some sort of those. Yeah, some sort of suction is at work and you put it over your boobs to make them look bigger. Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

But they were in those days, the famous torpedo.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, okay. That was the shame.

[Chick McGee]

They were foam.

[Tom Griswold]

Very pointy.

[Jess Hooker]

They were foam.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Now they're like. They really are. They do look.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

They suction too.

[Tom Griswold]

Bras then were, that was the shape of the bra back then. Very point.

[Chick McGee]

But I just always thought the word falsies was great. And then, then of course, years later, the great Woody Allen at the joke I was breastfed on falsies. Elegant. Really. I'm sure he tells it better. Well, thank you very much, Michael, for sending us that Note. We certainly appreciate it.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm not allowed to laugh at what you.

[Chick McGee]

We have. We. Okay. He's still canceled. Or can we get that undone? We have more letters of interest. You can reach us, Bob and [e-mail]. real quick thing. I believe today is the last day of our pop up store. Am I getting this right?

[Jess Hooker]

It is, yes.

[Chick McGee]

And available on the pop up store right now. We have a handful of the. God, don't do that. We have a handful of the shirts from Iowa that are a benefit project for the Stead Family Children's Hospital and sold a bunch of them. We don't have a number yet, but we sold a bunch of them at our show over the weekend. So hope to write a nice check to the Stead Family Children's Hospital. Thanks to all of you out there. A couple of other Bob and Tom shirts available, including this cool hoodie. Yeah. So once again, that's. The store is found at bob and tom.com.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you used to call your. The kids, the guys, the young toughs who would stand on the corner and up to no good. Would you call them hoods when you were in high school?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, we had there to a degree. Also there were greasers.

[Tom Griswold]

They were. You. You were alive when you use greasers.

[Chick McGee]

Absolutely.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

Greasers. And they wore leather.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We call them hoods. Look at those hoods over there. Yeah, Bunch of hoods.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. So it's. It's interesting how fashions change and styles change easy. Grease comes and goes.

[Tom Griswold]

Easy.

[Chick McGee]

Because we all know that grease is the word.

[Josh Arnold]

Indeed.

[Tom Griswold]

Sure.

[Chick McGee]

And it's one of my favorite Pat knockoffs, by the way, that Grease tribute that you do.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah, the Grease Lightning.

[Chick McGee]

I love that.

[Tom Griswold]

We'll come back with that.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. We do have some interest. We have some kind of interesting Philadelphia Eagles sporting news today.

[Tom Griswold]

If you say so.

[Chick McGee]

I think it's fascinating.

[Tom Griswold]

I know you do. Well, I mean, they've been talking about it all season and today you're aware of it, so.

[Chick McGee]

No, it's because it's in the news. It's in the sporting news. It's the headline in the sports page this morning. Exclusive, giant headline. But right now, I want to tell you about Chick Magee discovering something for this show.

You know, I don't.

[Chick McGee]

What cruise line?

[Josh Arnold]

I forget.

[Chick McGee]

You and your mom are really close.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what? Here's the thing.

[Chick McGee]

Not the one that went down yesterday, Right.

[Tom Griswold]

If no one's told you this today, I'm joking. Josh, you're a good son. Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, well, thanks.

[Josh Arnold]

I. You know, I don't know that she knew when she told me.

[Chick McGee]

That leads to a letter.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Dear Bob and Tom show.

[Tom Griswold]

Letters, letters, letters. Okay, go ahead.

[Chick McGee]

I've been watching the show Severance. I'm not familiar with the show.

[Tom Griswold]

I. I watch it. It's all. It's getting to the point where it's kind of like taking a college course. It's. I'm listening to the podcast. I'm doing everything I can to understand what's the premise. When you're at work, that's the only reality you're aware of, because something they planted in your brain. When you're away from work, that's the only reality you've. You know, because. And they're completely severed. Severance.

[Jess Hooker]

That sounds wonderful.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. You're above. You'd think, oh, your life at home. And you can't recall any of your work memories and vice versa.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, that sounds wonderful.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a great plot, but.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, it's a great premise. Okay, sorry.

[Tom Griswold]

Why did he ask?

[Jess Hooker]

Is the guy from Parks and Rec in that?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Adam Scott.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I like him.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And I don't know. It's not my thing. Sci fi. He goes, I've been watching the show Severance.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it's more about sci fi.

[Chick McGee]

In one episode, a gentleman was pushing a cart down a hall, whistling a tune. Had I not. Had I not been a daily listener of the Bob and Tom Show.

[Tom Griswold]

He sure was.

[Chick McGee]

I would not have recognized the tune.

[Tom Griswold]

Keep an eye on Pat. Yeah, I got you, buddy.

[Chick McGee]

I know Tom is a huge fan of Gordon Lightfoot. I quickly picked up the melody. It was the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

[Tom Griswold]

Sure was.

[Jess Hooker]

No, that.

[Chick McGee]

Nice to know.

[Jess Hooker]

It is nice to know.

[Chick McGee]

It's one of the great songs of all time.

[Josh Arnold]

Don't you have a long song?

[Chick McGee]

We don't have to do your tribute right now or ever again. We were. Josh brought up the fact that his mom is on a cruise ship lost at sea.

[Tom Griswold]

Trust the universe, Pat. It's all pointing toward the Gordon Lightfoot tribute.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I lost my capo today.

[Josh Arnold]

How could I ever play it.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, playing another.

[Chick McGee]

Right now we have a new thing. The, the Bob and Tom show. Micro Request.

[Tom Griswold]

We're doing it right now.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It doesn't take but a second. Like, again, it's a new feature I just invented.

[Tom Griswold]

Micro Request.

[Chick McGee]

This comes to us from Jeff. This is in honor of his dad. His dad loved this. He wanted to hear it today. So, Jeff, this goes out to you.

[Tom Griswold]

What happened to his dad and he.

[Jess Hooker]

That's.

[Josh Arnold]

We're honoring him. That's all that matters.

[Chick McGee]

That's, that's all that matters. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

He passed away.

[Chick McGee]

Didn't I? Didn't. I? Clearly wouldn't.

[Jess Hooker]

It was clear to me.

[Chick McGee]

Wouldn't a monkey have realized. Just shut up and let this go. Yes. I'm sorry, Jeff. Sorry about the loss of your father. Chick is holding a banana. Jeff, my most sincere apologies. Obviously, if your father loved this song, he was obviously a great guy. Humor.

[Tom Griswold]

What a horrible way to die.

[Chick McGee]

What do you mean it was a horrible way to die?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just guessing.

[Chick McGee]

You're just guessing.

[Tom Griswold]

As my dad would say, there are no good ways to die. If you think about it, there are.

[Chick McGee]

A lot of bad ones.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh yeah. Real bad.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Was this one of those?

[Chick McGee]

No, I have no idea. Not only is the request microso is the letter okay.

[Tom Griswold]

What does he want to hear? Will you get to it?

[Chick McGee]

This is Jeff in California. That may take me off the hook for any other Jeffs listening with the deceased father. You once again have my apologies. Wanted to hear this. He goes. I'm aware that you guys aren't allowed to play this anymore.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh.

[Chick McGee]

However, I'm going to play just an excerpt. And you can, you can do the, you can project on more of it. This goes out to Jeff's dad. Here we go. Prison.

[Josh Arnold]

Prison. I guess that you were sick from up above.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, prison.

[Edwin McCain]

And now you are my prisoner.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's one of those songs that people think it's called Prison. No, the title of the song is actually Prisoner of Love. It's like one of those tricky Led Zeppelin titles.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

I didn't know that one was non playable.

[Tom Griswold]

I, I, I was.

[Jess Hooker]

There's two parts.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, play those.

[Josh Arnold]

Lighten up out there.

[Chick McGee]

It's an actual classic.

[Jess Hooker]

It is.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. We send that out to everybody doing time right now.

[Tom Griswold]

I'd like to hear the real story behind this.

[Chick McGee]

Well, you can read the letter. We now turn to Chick McGee. I assume you have some letters over there. That's the thrust of this portion.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, Morning Mayhem Crew. This is from Amy what you gonna do? You had nail that. I think I could stay with you for a while. Maybe longer.

[Chick McGee]

Pick a key, fellas.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, no kidding.

[Josh Arnold]

Boy, we were having fun. But yeah, somebody grouch and grouch yet.

[Chick McGee]

I mean, if you're gonna.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, if you got a thing, you should be in the right key and bring some horns in.

[Josh Arnold]

It didn't sound weird to me. Was I the one off key, though?

[Tom Griswold]

No, I think.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, no. Just you guys were fine, except Pat was playing at a different key.

[Josh Arnold]

I was ignoring him altogether.

[Tom Griswold]

And he wasn't plugged in.

[Chick McGee]

Give him the right. Keep that.

[Tom Griswold]

I think that you belong to me the Dicky Brothers sing everything. And putting your hand on my.

[Josh Arnold]

Now rising up and down.

[Chick McGee]

This is not about a handy at.

[Tom Griswold]

A drive in until I get it in your. All right. Right.

[Edwin McCain]

Don't blame me.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, don't blame me. Yeah, I like that.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a good question.

[Chick McGee]

What did you not get? She. You knock her up. What happened?

[Tom Griswold]

This is from Amy. I know. I got in her hair.

[Josh Arnold]

Your Prairie League.

[Tom Griswold]

Ladies and gentlemen, you all need to embrace Josh's look. It's a brave power move to get creative with his facial hair. I personally love it. I really love it, Josh. It makes me smile down there.

[Jess Hooker]

It doesn't say that.

[Tom Griswold]

No, I added that.

[Josh Arnold]

I like the addition.

[Tom Griswold]

Keep being you, buddy. That's Amy somewhere in Wisco.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, thank you.

[Chick McGee]

Could make her burp down there.

[Jess Hooker]

That's a trick.

[Chick McGee]

Rather unpleasant. What's the trick that can be done?

[Tom Griswold]

I believe. I believe that's queef. Good morning.

[Chick McGee]

One of my favorite queef. Latifah. She doesn't sing. She just. It's kind of a ventriloquist thing.

[Josh Arnold]

It's quite a show.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, I feel like with yesterday's show and what were we talking about off the air. That included you. We can't say it, actually. And now the queef mentioned.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, I remember.

[Tom Griswold]

Jess is now officially a part of the family, I think.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, she's.

[Tom Griswold]

She's way in. There's no getting back out now.

[Chick McGee]

Look, it's just Wednesday.

[Josh Arnold]

She's all worn down.

[Jess Hooker]

I am. I know. And Wednesday is my day where I really. I'm over it. I'm over. I'm really over.

[Josh Arnold]

Get a job working construction.

[Tom Griswold]

I think. I think Kostaki put it best when he spent a week with us. Oh, you guys do this every day?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, we wore him. He was out of ammo after the first two hours.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it was amazing. Good morning. My favorite radio people. And Tom.

[Josh Arnold]

Don't you listen to that.

[Chick McGee]

Tom Witty.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you please play the bit where Chick and Josh and Pat make fun of Bob Welch? It makes me laugh so hard.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know why you guys attacked him.

[Tom Griswold]

That's right.

[Chick McGee]

Bob Welch was. I'll explain this to you. He was in Fleetwood Mac just before the huge hits.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Fleetwood Mac was a very well established band. History of. Great guitarist Bob Welsh did some wonderful songs with Fleetwood Mac.

[Tom Griswold]

Welch, not Welsh.

[Chick McGee]

Said Welch in any event.

[Jess Hooker]

And he left.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, he left the band. And that's when Lindsay Buckingham and Stevie Nicks came in. And the next thing you know, they've got the biggest selling album in history. But he's also super talented. And it had a very sad end.

[Tom Griswold]

And he had a very. He had a decent solo career.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, he did.

[Chick McGee]

He ate a couple. A couple of solo hits.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you remember this? This is called Ebony Eyes.

[Edwin McCain]

Have you seen that girl in the.

[Chick McGee]

Corner.

[Josh Arnold]

With you, baby?

[Tom Griswold]

And every now and then when we play Bob Welch, all the Welch kids and his wife hear us.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know why this is so good. This is so good. Am I missing something?

[Tom Griswold]

They sings. Kind of funny thing you close today.

[Josh Arnold]

Mom, they're talking about Daniel Radio. That is my favorite, favorite line.

[Tom Griswold]

See the kids.

[Josh Arnold]

What are they saying about your father? Well, they're playing a song.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, God. Tremendously talented.

[Tom Griswold]

What are you worried about? That Bob Welch will hear this and come.

[Chick McGee]

He's deceased in here.

[Jess Hooker]

What was his sad ending?

[Chick McGee]

No, you don't want to know.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay?

[Chick McGee]

Just. Just leave. Sentimental lady was leave it right there.

[Tom Griswold]

Did that have anything to do with that guy's dad? That.

[Jess Hooker]

That Jeff in California?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

No, stop. God. That isn't my favorite Bob Welsh song, though.

[Edwin McCain]

You are here.

[Tom Griswold]

That's right.

[Josh Arnold]

But I can look away and you be good.

[Tom Griswold]

Poof, you'd be gone.

[Josh Arnold]

Boy, that's a rough one.

[Tom Griswold]

Sentimental.

[Josh Arnold]

Blah, blah, blah. Oh, yeah, it really does.

[Chick McGee]

Ace. What's the one about the UFOs? What's that called?

[Josh Arnold]

Hypnotized.

[Tom Griswold]

That's not him singing, though, I don't think. Is it?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

What's the one?

[Tom Griswold]

Hypnotized.

[Chick McGee]

It's about UFOs.

[Tom Griswold]

It's hypnotized.

[Jess Hooker]

I think it's hypnotized.

[Tom Griswold]

Am I invisible?

[Josh Arnold]

We all are.

[Tom Griswold]

We all said hypnotized five minutes ago and you keep looking for the answer.

[Chick McGee]

No, I understand that it's hypnotized.

[Josh Arnold]

I just. What's the one where he says glass?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, Hypnotized.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, get that.

[Josh Arnold]

Get that one.

[Chick McGee]

Out.

[Tom Griswold]

It's got the most self indulgent drum beat you'll ever hear. You'd never. You'd never realize that Mick Fleetwood's name is first in the group.

[Chick McGee]

That's a great drum playing. What is wrong with you?

[Tom Griswold]

I'm just saying.

[Josh Arnold]

Let's hear it.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, God.

[Josh Arnold]

Are we in trouble?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Great drum beat.

[Tom Griswold]

It's me. Just me, man.

[Josh Arnold]

It's a cocaine drum.

[Tom Griswold]

And my symbol first will be all me.

[Josh Arnold]

Continue with me. Boring.

[Tom Griswold]

Boring. I think more me. Yeah, Perfect.

[Josh Arnold]

Should we come in now?

[Chick McGee]

No more.

[Tom Griswold]

No, no.

[Chick McGee]

A cool guitar chord.

[Josh Arnold]

I'll shut that up. They can't hear me.

[Tom Griswold]

Turn the guitar down.

[Chick McGee]

Nice, Bas.

[Josh Arnold]

Turn the base down.

[Chick McGee]

I want you. Would you shut up long enough so we can hear this vocal?

[Tom Griswold]

That was him.

[Chick McGee]

He doesn't sing like this.

[Josh Arnold]

Here we.

[Chick McGee]

Here we go.

[Edwin McCain]

Just the same kind of story seems to come down from long ago.

[Chick McGee]

See, it's the same kind of story that comes from long ago. And it's about this. This glass pond no man could have made. Oh, it's crazy. Let me get to the hook. This is a great song.

[Josh Arnold]

Let me get to the hook, he said after interrupting himself.

[Chick McGee]

I'm trying to explain to.

[Tom Griswold]

Let me get.

[Chick McGee]

I'm trying to explain to the lady how this song works. See, they're having coffee. Something flies.

[Josh Arnold]

She probably got that from the lyrics that said exactly what you're saying.

[Chick McGee]

See, I think they're. I think he's really saying. He's really saying. They're smoking the reefer. Do you like to smoke the weed?

[Jess Hooker]

I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Have you ever had any?

[Jess Hooker]

I've had it. Yeah, for sure.

[Chick McGee]

Do you like the so called joint or do you like the bong?

[Jess Hooker]

I've done both. I don't really. I don't do enough to have a preference.

[Tom Griswold]

What about the. The edibles?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I recently learned something.

[Tom Griswold]

She is quite. You know, she's our amazing chef. She.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, I've made it for other people for sure. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It makes butter out of. Yeah, it's really.

[Chick McGee]

I just learned, by the way, to get off topic briefly. Apparently, technically, reefer is a reference to a single marijuana cigarette.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, okay.

[Chick McGee]

That I. That I'd been in.

[Tom Griswold]

Dom, Don't. Please don't take this as an insult, but I don't think anyone living on earth looks to you to explain terms or anything hip.

[Chick McGee]

I'm like the hip dictionary. Okay, here we go. Let's get back here. Here comes the hook.

[Edwin McCain]

By the way, it might be out on that long. Which is why at least half of.

[Tom Griswold]

A plane and feel they can still hear my drums. Right?

[Edwin McCain]

Because there's no explaining your imagination can.

[Chick McGee]

Make you see and feel Something flew by the window. Remember that burn. Isn't that great?

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know if I like the talking over the singing there, right?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, come on. It's a great.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no. I kind of like the song.

[Chick McGee]

Multiple guitars. Cool sound, right?

[Josh Arnold]

That talking over the singing. It sounds like a mistake.

[Tom Griswold]

I always love when we get into these conversations. His ultimate argument is always, oh, come on.

[Jess Hooker]

Come on.

[Tom Griswold]

Where's the glass part?

[Chick McGee]

I don't. Is that later on there's a pond. There's a perfectly round pond with the bottom made of glass. What is.

[Tom Griswold]

Let me. Maybe this is.

[Edwin McCain]

You see, the sides were like glass.

[Chick McGee]

There you go. Wait a minute. You just missed the second part. The sides were like glass in the thick of a forest.

[Edwin McCain]

You see, the sides were like glass.

[Josh Arnold]

I wonder where they were.

[Chick McGee]

You dick. You just ruined it again.

[Tom Griswold]

Hang on, we'll try it again now.

[Chick McGee]

Don't. Just shut up during that part. You can talk with the first part.

[Tom Griswold]

Right? Right.

[Edwin McCain]

You see, the sides were like glass.

[Tom Griswold]

Everybody just shut up. Okay.

[Chick McGee]

There's no road to the pond, right?

[Josh Arnold]

According to Bob Welsh.

[Chick McGee]

So there's. In the middle of the woods, there's this perfectly round pound with a glass bottle. There's no road there. How did that get there?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, here's the.

[Chick McGee]

Well, it got there because the UFO landed.

[Tom Griswold]

This is the album cut. Did you. Do you know there was an import of that?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Totally different lyrics. Yeah. Oh, it's Skinnered. Oh, that joke's running scores. Thank God. It's always sad to say goodbye to a running.

[Josh Arnold]

It really is.

[Chick McGee]

We can bring it back. I enjoyed it.

[Josh Arnold]

We all sad.

[Tom Griswold]

Look at here.

[Ace Cosby]

Here.

[Chick McGee]

Which is the one he whistled.

[Tom Griswold]

That's Molly Hatchet. Molly Hatchet whistles.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. I like that very much. In any event, I'm not sure why we're talking about that, but that was Bob Welsh's birthday. That was a request.

[Tom Griswold]

Real quick. My. One of my favorite emails in this tone. I like these. This is from Kevin. I'm 60 years old. When I was younger, we bought weed from a guy that had a pet albino skunk.

[Josh Arnold]

How about that?

[Jess Hooker]

All right.

[Josh Arnold]

It was all stripe.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It was totally white.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And pink eyes. That's weird.

[Chick McGee]

That's not. Probably a lot of marijuana dealers, I think, had exotic pets. Isn't that kind of standard?

[Tom Griswold]

Didn't we have to. Didn't we have one day where everybody sent us an email, checking in what they were doing. Hey, I'm over here at the convenience store picking up some soda.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

What a surprise.

[Tom Griswold]

Good morning.

[Josh Arnold]

Just wash my hands.

[Chick McGee]

I'd rather hear what your drug dealer has. It is an exotic bet.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, you know, what you need to hear is March Madness has begun.

[Chick McGee]

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, it will any minute now.

[Chick McGee]

You know, two more days.

[Tom Griswold]

Saturday is March, Tom.

That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Jess Hooker over there at the Silac Insurance news desk.

[Jess Hooker]

Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hi, there.

[Tom Griswold]

Hello, Pat Godwin.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, Chick.

[Tom Griswold]

I think we have a song scheduled for this break. I believe if I look at the. If I look at the run sheet, there's Ace Cosby. I'm. I'm Chick begee in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. Hello, Tom.

[Chick McGee]

Good. And I'll see. How's it going? I'm getting organized over here. You threw me when you said run sheet. Is there a run sheet coming up?

[Tom Griswold]

So, anyway, yesterday, the thaw has begun. Check local listings. And it's really muddy out back in my. At the compound. And my baby Australian shepherd got in the mud yesterday.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, boy.

[Tom Griswold]

And I had to rinse her off, Tom.

[Josh Arnold]

I bet she had a time, though.

[Chick McGee]

It's quite the process, trust me.

[Tom Griswold]

And head and. Oh, that's right. I remember now. Talking with Tom is a competition. That's right. So did you have to rinse off your dogs yesterday, too, Tom?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you know, I have a new puppy, and I had to rinse off mine.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you have a new puppy?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. No, I haven't heard about it.

[Tom Griswold]

What kind of puppy is it? It's a cabochon cavachon.

[Josh Arnold]

Designer Doug.

[Tom Griswold]

That sounds like a $15,000.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, Cavachon does sound like a fine wine or something. Something pretentious. It's Jimmy's dog. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, my puppy dog. She's.

[Chick McGee]

What's your dog's name? Brody. What is it? Brody. Brody. Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Mine's Joey.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, that's a great name.

[Tom Griswold]

Josephine.

[Chick McGee]

Mine is Dungy. Named after the great NFL coach, the. The great Tony Dungey. And people that aren't familiar with him get really upset.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. What the hell kind of name is that?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. You didn't name him Ditka, did you? No. God.

[Josh Arnold]

See, now there's no telling me they would know who was.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't think Josh would name a dog Ditka or a cat, but.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you put your dog in the bathtub?

[Tom Griswold]

I. She loves the water. And she will hop in the tub and just sit there until I come and rinse her off.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, okay. That's great.

[Tom Griswold]

She's the best. Oh, and then the golden wants to get in the tub. It was a big party, Tom. It was a big wedding.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you get in the tub?

[Tom Griswold]

And then I took off all my.

[Chick McGee]

All right, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

Got in the tub.

[Chick McGee]

Look, the run sheet says we're doing a song.

[Tom Griswold]

And then peanut butter was everywhere.

[Chick McGee]

We need to explain once again, Josh Arnold is shedding his winter's beard. And he's. He's. I didn't hear that. He is doing it in stages. Stage one was just shaving the chin part. So you had a big mustache hooking up to the big sideburns. Now it's just a Fu Manchu mustache that is separated from bushy sideburns.

[Tom Griswold]

Most men smoke, but Fu Manchu.

[Chick McGee]

That's right. But that's. That's a kind of a. That's a serious looking stash.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. I'm looking forward to seeing how my face will be with just the stash.

[Chick McGee]

And now just looker. Speaking for all women, do you. If you. If you were to see Josh and not know him, say, in a convenience store, would you.

[Jess Hooker]

Sure.

[Chick McGee]

Run the other way. Would you feel.

[Tom Griswold]

Would you be glad if he came over and asked you to dance? Let's say.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. Because I'd be like, you're a funny guy.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a good time right there. That face.

[Tom Griswold]

That is.

[Jess Hooker]

That is a good time. That is. Yeah, that is.

[Josh Arnold]

That is a fun loving guy.

[Jess Hooker]

This is a guy that's not taking himself too seriously.

[Tom Griswold]

Have you ever looked at any guy and said. And said, hey, your face looks like a good time? Have you ever said that?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

No. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

So you would say that. This. This guy's obviously spent a great deal of time sculpting this hair in his face. I don't have a problem with it.

[Jess Hooker]

It doesn't look like he. It. And this is not.

[Josh Arnold]

No, I know exactly what. And I agree with you.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. It doesn't look like he spent a lot of time.

[Josh Arnold]

Right. It does.

[Jess Hooker]

It looks like he took a trimmer and went on both sides of his mustache real quick and trimmed his neck.

[Josh Arnold]

But there was actually, like, more balancing and.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, I'm sure there was.

[Josh Arnold]

I thought there would be. And I was like, oh, man, I don't want to.

[Jess Hooker]

Is it uneven? You know how they say it is slightly uneven. Yeah, yeah. People have. Their hair grows faster on one side.

[Josh Arnold]

And I realized one side of my face grows grayer than the other side.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, really?

[Josh Arnold]

And I don't know why or how, but vitamin off balance.

[Tom Griswold]

It is. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

All right, I'll look at it.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, you know, Tom, you'll find this interesting. I hope he said, crossing his fingers, that women have trouble trimming their eyebrows and.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, yeah, that will. If you don't have them professionally done.

[Tom Griswold]

The. The big quote for women is your.

[Jess Hooker]

Eyebrows are sisters, they're not twins. So they don't have to be perfect.

[Josh Arnold]

Fascinating.

[Chick McGee]

Or is that written in stone?

[Jess Hooker]

The Nordstrom's makeup counter.

[Tom Griswold]

On a T shirt at Sephora.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Your eyebrows are not twins. They're sisters.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

So they should be.

[Jess Hooker]

They don't have to be exactly the same.

[Chick McGee]

And I would think that would be true of the female breasts as well.

[Jess Hooker]

I think that is true. Yeah. That is true.

[Chick McGee]

Your boobs are not twins. They're. They're sisters. They're rarely even.

[Ace Cosby]

Right.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. Usually you have one that's bigger than the other.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I know.

[Josh Arnold]

Mine is.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Are.

[Jess Hooker]

Are your nuts that way?

[Josh Arnold]

They can be.

[Ace Cosby]

My nuts are the same.

[Josh Arnold]

One can sometimes hang lower than the other.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what? I wasn't gonna.

[Chick McGee]

I'll call pastor corporate and ask her if one is bigger than.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, and you slipped that right in. I wasn't gonna ask you if you have one boo bigger than the other, but you asked about our nuts first, so go ahead.

[Jess Hooker]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, no, we. I. Oh, personally, I. See.

[Jess Hooker]

I. I think they're pretty even.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Pretty even.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. Like, they're. They're. I mean, if you've seen. I had an aunt who. She was two full cup sizes bigger than one side.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Jess Hooker]

And one time she was taking food out of the oven and the breast fell out of her shirt and on the oven door, and she burned her nipple off.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, my. You're just bringing this up. This is terrible.

[Chick McGee]

She burned it off.

[Jess Hooker]

The one side of her areola was gone. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

That is crazy.

[Tom Griswold]

And is that a permanent disfigurement?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, it was done. It was.

[Chick McGee]

It was.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

And it was on the good boob.

[Jess Hooker]

That was on the big.

[Chick McGee]

The big one.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. The good one.

[Chick McGee]

Not necessarily. Yeah. A hot casserole and she burned her down.

[Tom Griswold]

Was this like a holiday gathering? Like Thanksgiving or something?

[Jess Hooker]

No, no. I mean, I just know the story. I wasn't there to win. Witness it.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I think if. I wish it were associated with the holiday so we could hear it every year from the beginning. What kind of casserole was it?

[Tom Griswold]

That's a Thanksgiving story.

[Jess Hooker]

I remember it being a meatloaf, to be honest.

[Chick McGee]

Even better story.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes.

[Josh Arnold]

You're bringing this up.

[Jess Hooker]

I didn't. I. It's never.

[Chick McGee]

Come on.

[Tom Griswold]

We can't watch football until somebody burns their nipple.

[Chick McGee]

Did she. Did she just wear them like one falsy so they'd be evened out?

[Jess Hooker]

No, I. It. It didn't bother.

[Chick McGee]

Was it. Was it clearly visible when was clothed? You'd go, whoa. That's uneven.

[Jess Hooker]

It was. It was visible. Yes. Yes. You could tell.

[Tom Griswold]

It was apparent or it was a parent, unless you know which one was.

[Jess Hooker]

The big one, the left one.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Did you stage left?

[Josh Arnold]

Very funny, Pat. Very funny. Left or stage left?

[Chick McGee]

Well, they'd be.

[Josh Arnold]

Never mind.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, stage left. Okay. The one from the, from the boobs point of view. It was.

[Josh Arnold]

It was.

[Chick McGee]

Well, we don't have time for Pat's song now, so I like that much better.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Well, we'll come back with Pat Song.

[Tom Griswold]

A Trivia to boo One boo bigger than the other.

[Chick McGee]

A couple things coming up. Edwin McCain is going to be joining us. I'm very excited about that.

[Tom Griswold]

Help me, Ed.

[Chick McGee]

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I love that hinge.

[Chick McGee]

Part of the mystery of Stonehenge may have been uncovered.

[Tom Griswold]

We have the top 10 henges.

Okay.

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Jess Hooker at the Silac Insurance news desk.

[Jess Hooker]

Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

There's Pat Godwin. Hey, Chick, got a song this, this time Got a song in my heart Every day we promise. There's Josh Arnold. Hi there, Ace Cosby. Hey, we got a joke of the day coming up from ace. I'm Chick McGee. We're in 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. Hello, Tom. Oh, oh, oh, O'Reilly.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, a couple quick things before we get to the song that Pat's going to do in honor of Josh's evolving facial hair.

[Josh Arnold]

Thank you, Pat.

[Chick McGee]

Another letter. Dear Radio Legends, hello. Thank you Very much. This is from Nick, writing from West Lynn, Oregon. He writes congratulations on a great show in Iowa. I live in Oregon, but I used to travel to Iowa often for work. Love the people there.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, indeed.

[Tom Griswold]

Quite a commute.

[Chick McGee]

Great, great, great, great folks.

[Josh Arnold]

That tough drive every day.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah. You get up in the morning. I got here, I gotta go.

[Tom Griswold]

You'd have to get up before you go to bed.

[Chick McGee]

I wasn't surprised to see the great support you had from the great people in Iowa. Well, thank you. Speaking of that show, Tom was talking about Burt Ward from the Batman TV series and. Yeah, there's a lot of information about that era. The famous Batman TV series. Kind of poppy. Had the. There's, you know, the. And you weren't there, Ms. Hooker. That's why I'm telling you this story. But according to legend, Burt Ward was so well endowed.

[Jess Hooker]

No kidding.

[Chick McGee]

That they had to get a special COD piece for him. At which point, Josh, do you remember what you said?

[Josh Arnold]

It was a haddock piece or something like that. Or sturgeon piece, you said.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

It was so big, he needed a sturgeon piece.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

At which point our. Our letter writer spit out his soda all over the work provided laptop.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, well, sorry.

[Chick McGee]

Sorry about that. Sorry about your laptop. He's wanted to say how much he enjoyed that joke.

[Jess Hooker]

Ah, I guess I misunderstood. A COD piece is to cover up the manhood.

[Chick McGee]

The COD piece almost protective. The most famous COD piece probably would be the ones worn by the lion tiger tamers. Siegfried and Roy. Remember, they'd walk out on stage, it looked like a gigantic jock strap jutting out.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. It made your. It made your daddy part smooth.

[Josh Arnold]

Sure. Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

But the ones that Siegfried and Roy, the implication being they had like watermelons down there.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, so the bigger the bulge.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, it was a little ridiculous. Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

Rarely does one see a COD piece in contemporary culture. Are there any?

[Jess Hooker]

Pat wears one every day.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, did you mention Siegfried Maro? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's the only one I can mention. I. Have you ever seen Siegfried and Roy's in person? It's quite imposing.

[Jess Hooker]

It's real.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Bob and I at the time, took the wives and we went to see Siegfried and Roy in Vegas.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, you mean the show.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. What do you think? I was one of their lovers. What are you saying?

[Jess Hooker]

It kind of sounds.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, I think it.

[Josh Arnold]

And that's why. And the tiger found out, and that's why he attacked.

[Tom Griswold]

Have I exposed something here that I didn't mean?

[Josh Arnold]

Sound like you're Right in the room.

[Jess Hooker]

What about Tom Jones?

[Chick McGee]

Is.

[Jess Hooker]

Or was that just his.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

He was accused of stuffing.

[Tom Griswold]

Stuffing.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I think that was very much so.

[Josh Arnold]

Might have been him.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay.

[Josh Arnold]

Right. It could have been him, but he was always accused of stuffing.

[Tom Griswold]

I went to see my very first concert. Black Oak, Arkansas. JoJo gone and bad Company was a new band. Oh, great show coming out. Bad Cup. Bad Company opened. And when Black Oak, Arkansas came out, Jim Dandy Mangram was the lead singer.

[Chick McGee]

Go, Jim Dandy.

[Josh Arnold]

I love that song.

[Tom Griswold]

He no shirt, black army boots and white. What would now be called yoga pants.

[Chick McGee]

Oh.

[Josh Arnold]

Like leggings.

[Tom Griswold]

Just to. Just to draw attention to his hog.

[Chick McGee]

And very fit.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay, okay.

[Chick McGee]

One of those guys. You can take his shirt off and everyone goes.

[Tom Griswold]

And he reached down at one point and adjusted himself. I, I, it had to be on purpose.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Was unbelievable.

[Jess Hooker]

Down his side.

[Tom Griswold]

I wouldn't. I wouldn't keep that thing hidden either. My gosh.

[Chick McGee]

I wonder if his nickname was Black Oak.

[Tom Griswold]

It might have been.

[Chick McGee]

Are they still out there?

[Tom Griswold]

I don't think so. Remember JoJo Jones? JoJo Gunn? Jay Ferguson.

[Josh Arnold]

Run.

[Tom Griswold]

Run. Sure, it doesn't sound like much now.

[Chick McGee]

But we can maybe get a couple of samples of that. But in the meantime, we do have Josh. Once again, he is taking off his winter's beard, as he calls it, and he's doing it in, in phases. Phase one was just removing the chin hair. So we had kind of gigantic sideburns merging into a mustache. Today's version, you have shaved a little bit between the stash and the burns, cleaned up the chin. So now it looks like, like a Fu Manchu mustache and big bushy sideburns. And Pat has been. You're just getting your guitar now. We've been introducing this for 20 minutes.

[Josh Arnold]

I like to wait till the last minute.

[Tom Griswold]

I know it gives it more gravitas.

[Josh Arnold]

When I grab for the guitar.

[Tom Griswold]

We talked about doing.

[Chick McGee]

You're gonna get.

[Josh Arnold]

We talked about doing a review. Would do yesterday's Civil War thing and then move on to the new stuff. Oh, okay.

[Chick McGee]

Yesterday, it did look much like a Civil War general.

[Josh Arnold]

All mine eyes have seen the trimming of Josh's winter beard. He has trimmed out the part where there's pizza crust and beer. He will lose his beard one snatch at a time. Yesterday was just day one. Way to go. More power to you. But looking like this, no girl will do. Yeah. Not even your crush, Paula Abdullah. The trimming must go on. That was yesterday's beer.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Now the new one.

[Tom Griswold]

Wait a minute. Was that a drum at the start, you were doing.

[Chick McGee]

He was trying to do a callback to the. The Bob Welsh thing from an hour. No, I was not.

[Josh Arnold]

I was doing a Civil War.

[Tom Griswold]

Civil War drum.

[Josh Arnold]

But Mick Fleetwood does claim. That's him. That's me.

[Tom Griswold]

That's me.

[Chick McGee]

More of me.

[Tom Griswold]

Hear my drum in that? You can't miss it right at the start. It does go on for a long time.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, I'm gonna put my guitar down. Well, this seems silly.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, he picks it back up.

[Chick McGee]

A trim was long overdue.

[Josh Arnold]

You were looking all bushy like a chick from 72. It could have been a stash you can ride on or a beard that you can glide on. But you'll feel great upon the face of a handlebar built for two. There you go.

[Chick McGee]

Very nice.

[Josh Arnold]

Very silly, too.

[Tom Griswold]

You ever run into. In all your travels, Tom, you ever run into a massive bush? Just unbelievable. Couldn't tell where.

[Josh Arnold]

The answer has to be, yes, it is.

[Jess Hooker]

But can you imagine? He would just. He would laugh, he would walk away.

[Josh Arnold]

We don't know. He might.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you start laughing, yes or no?

[Chick McGee]

There may have been a little vomiting. I'm not sure.

[Josh Arnold]

He might be a bushwhacker. We have no idea.

[Chick McGee]

No, that's.

[Josh Arnold]

Thanks.

[Chick McGee]

No, thanks.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, he's not.

[Chick McGee]

No, thanks, but thanks for asking. Time now to move ahead. And that means checking in with Chick McGee at the sports desk.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, I like to grab my sports at the last minute. It gives it more graviton.

[Chick McGee]

I like it.

[Josh Arnold]

See, now I'm engaged.

[Tom Griswold]

See? Luca and the Laker. Luca, LeBron and the Lakers. La, la, la. They hosted the Dallas Mavericks last night, Luca's old team. And he was giving them the side eye. A little of this, this little of this, a little of that, huh? And Luca had a triple double. Of course he did. 19, 15 and 12. LeBron had 27 and 12. And Lakers win 107.99. Kyrie, 35 and 12 for the Mavericks last night. And I mentioned this only because of their swell nickname, Tom, Maryland basketball is on somewhat of a resurgence. In college basketball, the Maryland Terrapins fear the turtle. You're aware of this?

[Chick McGee]

Oh, there's the Grateful Dead album, Terrapin Station. Of course.

[Tom Griswold]

That has nothing to do with any of this.

[Chick McGee]

Terrapin.

[Tom Griswold]

Maryland starters are averaging 69.2 points a game. 69.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Ace Cosby]

Okay, great.

[Chick McGee]

Thanks.

[Tom Griswold]

No, and they. That's the number one mark in men's Division one basketball. And the starting five have. They have a new nickname. The Crab Five.

[Chick McGee]

Nice.

[Tom Griswold]

What do you think? That's.

[Josh Arnold]

I like it.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that a good name?

[Josh Arnold]

Cool.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You know they have crab chips in Baltimore.

[Josh Arnold]

Delicious.

[Tom Griswold]

They're. They're like, you go out, it's not barbecue.

[Chick McGee]

You.

[Tom Griswold]

The, the flavor is crap.

[Josh Arnold]

They essentially. Isn't it just bay seasoning? Essentially.

[Jess Hooker]

It's like crab boils or whatever.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Go out and get your beer. But real tasty seasoning.

[Josh Arnold]

You like it?

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't like it as much as I wanted to.

[Josh Arnold]

I. You know what? I agree. But still good.

[Tom Griswold]

They were. It was an interesting.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you know, when in Rome. It's one of those things, certainly.

[Tom Griswold]

Diana Tausi is retiring after 20 seasons, ending one of the greatest careers in women's basketball. The WNBA's career scoring leader and a three time league league champion Thorazil announced her retirement on Tuesday in an interview with Time magazine. Phoenix Mercury, the only WNBA team she played for.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm crazy about a mercury.

[Tom Griswold]

42 years old, won her sixth Olympic gold medal at the Paris Games and finishes her WNBA career with 10,646 points, nearly 3,000 more than Tina Charles.

[Chick McGee]

He passed the ball, for God's sake.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't be afraid to put it up, Diana.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, you do. You.

[Tom Griswold]

You keep shooting, baby.

[Chick McGee]

Six. Olympic six. That's amazing.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes. If you do the math. 24 years. Very good.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, she's good.

[Tom Griswold]

She is good. The Baltimore Ravens General Manager Eric DaCosta considers the allegations of inappropriate sexual behavior against kicker Justin Tucker very serious and concerning. He said yesterday at the combine in a far off place called Indianapolis, he will let the NFL's investigation play out before determining how to proceed. Does any. Anyone want to translate that for anybody?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, I can translate it. The bad news is if the guy had a much better year, this would all go away.

[Tom Griswold]

Exactly.

[Chick McGee]

But he sucked this last year.

[Tom Griswold]

He didn't kick through. It'll be the Baltimore Banner, the newspaper there. 16 massage therapists in the Baltimore area have accused Tucker of inappropriate behavior.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, buddy.

[Chick McGee]

Are these all going back a decade?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, 2016.

[Chick McGee]

There's. There's something about a. The most recent technically, from the legal standpoint, that may make them not.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, really?

[Chick McGee]

I don't know. I haven't read it.

[Tom Griswold]

The 16 therapists, nowhere near the record record.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

No, come on.

[Tom Griswold]

27. Deshaun Watson, 27.

[Chick McGee]

That's for players. Now when we get to owners.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, okay. That's another. That's another bracket.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, they're. They're forgiven immediately and then given them given another check.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, the thing with Craft was everybody was consenting, right?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. I don't think he was forcing anything.

[Josh Arnold]

You just got caught paying for it.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, he just liked it. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And I think it was strictly a business strategy.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, Right. That shouldn't be punished. I mean, I guess technically it was illegal, but.

[Jess Hooker]

And don't you all pay for it one way or another.

[Josh Arnold]

I'd like to know that. That's the lady saying that.

[Chick McGee]

Yes, that. Yes.

[Jess Hooker]

Because we charge for it.

[Chick McGee]

Silence.

[Tom Griswold]

Don't use sex as a weapon.

[Chick McGee]

Worth every what's coming up in sports, Chick McGee.

[Tom Griswold]

The Green Bay packers have some trouble with one of the rules. And I do too, as a fan. And Tom doesn't understand the situation. And I'll hope to explain it to him when we come back.

[Josh Arnold]

All right, the rest of us will go get breakfast.

[Tom Griswold]

And David Rush, another world record.

[Chick McGee]

That's a good one, too.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I'll give you a hand. Say that every time a bowling ball is involved.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

What's the difference between an ugly.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Top Show. We're all here. There's Josh and Jess, Pat, Ace Cosby and that joke of the day coming down the pike. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. I'm Chick McGee at the Sports desk. Hello, Tom.

[Chick McGee]

Hello, Chick Magee. I look over at the SILAC Insurance news desk and I see she's both boogieing and woogieing sitting in for Christy Lee. It's Ms. Jess Hooker. Are we gonna go back to the sports?

[Tom Griswold]

He has the boogie woogie fever. The Green Bay packers are proposing a rule to ban the so called tush push play popularized by the Philadelphia Eagles. Now, have you guys seen this play?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It's more or less a quarterback sneak, which I don't have any problem with.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what the quarterback sneak is?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay. You sneak the quarterback, you sneak him over one of the offensive linemen wears big pants with big pockets and they put them in and he's sneaking. No, my problem is, and it's been in football, creeping back in for the last last five or six seasons. You can help the runner advance now, which before either they took the rule off the books or they're just not calling it. I'm not sure which it is, but that's what I Have trouble with. When there's a running back or two pushing the quarterback toward the line of scrimmage. I think that should be illegal. And I think. And I think that is what they're going to make illegal. Not the tush push.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

So they will make it. Just go back to a quarterback sneak.

[Chick McGee]

If nothing else. Get a better name.

[Jess Hooker]

So what's the quarterback sneak? What's the difference between that and a tush push?

[Chick McGee]

There's nobody behind.

[Tom Griswold]

Nobody behind him. They're supposed to open a hole.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, they just make.

[Chick McGee]

They get behind.

[Josh Arnold]

Pushing the tush.

[Chick McGee]

Right.

[Jess Hooker]

But that's what they're supposed to do.

[Tom Griswold]

No, you're not supposed to help the running back. That was. That was on. That was part of the rules forever.

[Jess Hooker]

That's.

[Tom Griswold]

No, not the quarterback. No. Not even the quarterback sneak.

[Jess Hooker]

Really?

[Tom Griswold]

Really?

[Chick McGee]

Am I the only one that is bothered by the name the tush push?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, there was another name for it.

[Josh Arnold]

The French mistake.

[Tom Griswold]

Was the French mistake. The butt shove the butt shove the ass pass. The colon camper. And then things. I can't say the brotherly shovel.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I like brotherly show.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, because of Philly. That's right. I. I did hear that.

[Tom Griswold]

Because of Philadelphia.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You like that better?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Tush push.

[Tom Griswold]

But this helping the runner has spread out not only the quarterback, but you'll see a lineman downfield. Pushing the running backs toward. That should be illegal.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, I don't think so.

[Tom Griswold]

That's not football.

[Jess Hooker]

No, it's a team effort. They're helping each other out. That's what they're doing now.

[Tom Griswold]

You sound like Josh. You know that? Would you like to hear Josh's.

[Jess Hooker]

You know what? Of all the people in here to sound like.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that right?

[Chick McGee]

Well, I never at least. Or at least occasionally, always the sound.

[Josh Arnold]

Always the voice of reason.

[Chick McGee]

Tush push reminds me of this. This reminds me of this. You know what? This is jazz.

[Jess Hooker]

It's. It's a cocaine is what it is.

[Chick McGee]

Push. Push in the toes.

[Tom Griswold]

So much cocaine.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. This started.

[Josh Arnold]

It's that time of the month in Matush.

[Chick McGee]

It's. It's. Oh, I see. They change an alternative that started out as a ballad, but the cocaine kicked in. Yeah. Producer. Just keep going, ladies. Faster. That's horrible.

[Tom Griswold]

That great scene in Reefer Madness where he's.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, they're all great.

[Chick McGee]

Kept up, I see.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, well, that brings us to. That's right. Stupid world record. Do we have the video on this, man? I hope so. Maybe David Rush has broken the Guinness world record for the Most catches in one minute while juggling a bowling ball and two juggling balls.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

While on a balance board yet on my head yet. Mr. Rush took on the challenge at Guinness World Record headquarters in London. Mr. Rush. Where he smashed the minimum mark of 100 catches with a total of 240.

[Josh Arnold]

Rush smash.

[Chick McGee]

Now he keeps. He's breaking all these records in London at their headquarters.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Has he moved out?

[Josh Arnold]

There's a chance he was asked to leave the country. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a good point.

[Chick McGee]

Been over there for quite a while.

[Tom Griswold]

That request came from his wife. Oh, here he is. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

He's got a bowling ball and two regular juggling ball. Look at that. He's on one of those. One of those boards that's sitting on a log going back and forth. This is great.

[Josh Arnold]

The guy's got skill.

[Chick McGee]

Look. I mean, he's a world class juggler.

[Tom Griswold]

I got a problem with it. Can you guess what it is?

[Chick McGee]

The outfit?

[Tom Griswold]

That.

[Jess Hooker]

It's David Rush.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, that and that bowling ball. Looks a little tacky, doesn't it? Looks a little easy.

[Josh Arnold]

So easy to get a little waxy or something. Yeah, the dodgeball.

[Chick McGee]

You couldn't do that under any circumstances? Whatever kind of.

[Tom Griswold]

Or want to give me. Give me a week. I could do that.

[Josh Arnold]

Did you guys happen to see. This is very visual. The guy in the back working on the phone can't be bothered by this.

[Chick McGee]

And it's a world record. Great. I got. I got bills to pay. I gotta sell some books.

[Tom Griswold]

Have you seen the rent in London? It's crazy. $4,000 a month for like it. Is it 2,000 square? That's all.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, hey.

[Tom Griswold]

Hi.

[Jess Hooker]

How are you keeping on Zillow again?

[Chick McGee]

When you're practicing that, do you wear steel toed boots?

[Jess Hooker]

I assume I. I would.

[Chick McGee]

You dropped. You dropped that bowling ball.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, you know what? We have a story about that.

[Chick McGee]

That's exactly where I was going.

[Tom Griswold]

You sure? You sure as hell wouldn't wear flu flip flops. I'll tell you, I think you do find it. Oh, really?

[Josh Arnold]

Don't you know the old adage? If you're practicing a trapeze or a tightrope, if you have a net, you're more likely to fall because you know that the safety. But if you're practicing without one, it.

[Jess Hooker]

Motivates you to do that.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Or you fall and break your neck. That's a great adage.

[Tom Griswold]

It works.

[Chick McGee]

But that leads.

[Tom Griswold]

Wrap it up, Josh.

[Chick McGee]

That leads to.

[Tom Griswold]

Can you be any more.

[Chick McGee]

Who's ever heard that adage?

[Tom Griswold]

Let's Come up.

[Josh Arnold]

You've never heard that.

[Tom Griswold]

Let's come up with dismissive, condescending, distant, aloof, Aloof, Cold, uncaring, uncaring. Have you gotten this in some other setting recently?

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Jess Hooker]

Moving on.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, now this is. This is another one of those incredibly dumb Internet things.

[Jess Hooker]

A podiatrist is warning people against partaking in a new TikTok trend. People dropping heavy objects on their feet.

[Josh Arnold]

I like this.

[Tom Griswold]

I've seen this.

[Jess Hooker]

You have?

[Tom Griswold]

It started with a phone.

[Jess Hooker]

The hashtag dropping things. Like things on my foot. Okay, that's the hashtag.

[Josh Arnold]

I think it's funny.

[Jess Hooker]

If you want to search. It shows users dropping items such as vacuum cleaners, air fryers.

[Josh Arnold]

I've done that.

[Jess Hooker]

Toasters. And even a wooden table on their feet. And ranking how painful each one is.

[Chick McGee]

Brilliant.

[Tom Griswold]

Holy hell.

[Jess Hooker]

However, Dr. Benjamin Boland told the PA news agency that people participating in the trend risk a lifetime of pain and disability.

[Josh Arnold]

Nobody asked you, Boland. Mind your beeswax.

[Jess Hooker]

He explained that dropping heavy and sharp objects on your feet could lead to damage to the nerves.

[Josh Arnold]

That's what's funny about it.

[Chick McGee]

It.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

But what is. What is the point? Take that. Diabetes.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. One such participant, Mr. Luke Killing, he received more than 3.8 million views on his video.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, I wonder what he dropped on his foot.

[Jess Hooker]

It doesn't say. But when asked why he decided to join the trend, the 19 year old sales advisor told the PA News Agent Agency curiosity. And just because it was funny.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it is funny.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. 50 years from now they'll be doing a news story. 50 years ago today, this douchebag dropped.

[Josh Arnold]

An anvil on his foot and we're still laughing. That would be the story.

[Chick McGee]

Here he is.

[Jess Hooker]

After the Success wheelchair video, Mr. Pilling created more feet crushing content in an effort to build his platform.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know what it says about me, but the. The two. The two Instagram sites I enjoy the most are epic fails where people are falling and satisfying gravity when they fall. More people falling. It's.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I like it a lot.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. There are hundreds of people fall every day and they seem to be okay.

[Chick McGee]

My favorite clip was always the one of the early days of aviation.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh yeah.

[Chick McGee]

They have the series of would be aircraft.

[Josh Arnold]

Those are great.

[Chick McGee]

That don't make it.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Plunging into a river.

[Josh Arnold]

20 wings on both sides. On each side.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. This will help.

[Josh Arnold]

Love that.

[Chick McGee]

The ones with their flapping.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Remember the guy who got shot in the belly with a cannonball?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

The slow motion, bald kind of Fat guy.

[Tom Griswold]

He was wearing goggles.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, you want to protect your eyes. There's four old women going into their vacation home, and they're all. They're adorable. Carrying all their stuff. And the last one, they're all helping each other.

[Chick McGee]

They're kidding. But the last.

[Tom Griswold]

You could tell they're best friends.

[Josh Arnold]

The last one falls and it's just hilarious.

[Jess Hooker]

Gladys.

[Josh Arnold]

They all go to her to help her up and they all fall.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, they all end up falling.

[Chick McGee]

It's adorable.

[Tom Griswold]

Unbelievable.

[Chick McGee]

So anyways, eat a tide pod. Okay.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

This is funnier at least. This is funnier than eating Typhoon.

[Tom Griswold]

This has some style.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay. You drop something on your foot, damage.

[Chick McGee]

Damaging your foot permanently.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, maybe they're not.

[Tom Griswold]

You could easily.

[Chick McGee]

You know, you drop a whole dining room table on your foot, you might.

[Josh Arnold]

Be okay to break a.

[Tom Griswold]

Break a bone in your foot.

[Chick McGee]

A podiatry, a professional foot doctor.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know this Bonner from my own mother.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, Colin.

[Josh Arnold]

Sorry.

[Jess Hooker]

I dropped a. A kettlebell on my foot.

[Josh Arnold]

Funny.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. It wasn't funny when it happened.

[Tom Griswold]

How much was that? How much did that. The kettlebells are known for. That's all they do is way heavy.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, it was eight pounds.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that's not too bad.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Do you ever break a toe?

[Jess Hooker]

Yep. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Then there's nothing you can do.

[Jess Hooker]

No, when I work.

[Tom Griswold]

When I worked for Otis Elevator, I broke my toe. I dropped a steel casting on my toe.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that's good, man. You would be famous now if you had done that.

[Chick McGee]

They don't make you wear or at least suggest that you were steel toed.

[Tom Griswold]

I had steel toed shoes on. Still broke it. That's how heavy it was.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

They had to. They had trouble getting my shoe off.

[Chick McGee]

Well, in any event, I'm still wearing it. We'll keep in touch with dumb things that are happening.

[Josh Arnold]

We'll do a video today. You can drop a can of soda on my foot.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

An empty can.

[Josh Arnold]

A full can of soda.

[Chick McGee]

That's. That's nothing.

[Ace Cosby]

Make it a water bottle.

[Josh Arnold]

Let me drop a full can of soda on your foot. It's not gonna hurt.

[Tom Griswold]

I think you have to take your shoe off. Yeah, that's right.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

That will hurt.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it's gonna hurt.

[Tom Griswold]

Just sock feet, but it's not gonna break anything.

[Chick McGee]

Can we use a ladder?

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Tom Griswold]

Can we throw it up in the air?

[Josh Arnold]

No. From the empire to let go of it.

[Tom Griswold]

Okay.

[Chick McGee]

Can we use Chef Boyardee extra large ravioli?

[Josh Arnold]

Not extra large.

[Tom Griswold]

How about peaches?

[Josh Arnold]

Wait, wait, Do I get it afterwards?

[Tom Griswold]

How about.

[Chick McGee]

See in the negotiation? Can we drop it from the radio tower?

[Tom Griswold]

Nope. I got.

[Chick McGee]

Catch it and keep.

[Tom Griswold]

But stand by for a joke. How about peaches and heavy syrup?

[Chick McGee]

Very good.

[Josh Arnold]

Very good. Heavy, Syrupy. Sir.

[Tom Griswold]

Never mind.

[Chick McGee]

Well, congratulations to David Rush for juggling the bowling ball.

[Tom Griswold]

Are there any of these world records that you've seen that you could. You'd go, yeah, I. I want to try that.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, sure, that's. Yeah, that's.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that part of the tracks?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, that's part of the. Yeah. Like the ones where he's un. Popping lots of balloons with chopsticks and stuff. But they. They're much more difficult than they. They look like they are. What's coming up in the news.

[Jess Hooker]

We've got big penises.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you.

[Josh Arnold]

Coming up.

[Jess Hooker]

By we, you mean Sparkling maple water? Yeah. Sounds good. No. You don't like it. And Fire Festival too. Is that.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I already got my tickets.

[Tom Griswold]

I got the world pass. I sent them 750. I'm set to go.

[Chick McGee]

That's the low end.

[Jess Hooker]

I was gonna say. Say, that's not going to get you anything.

[Tom Griswold]

Is that the low end?

[Chick McGee]

I don't think anything's going to get you anything, but we'll find out.

[Tom Griswold]

What about the stars? Any stars available this time?

[Chick McGee]

They have not announced any of the acts.

[Josh Arnold]

That's the fun of it. That's.

[Tom Griswold]

Who was last time? Was it Diddy or somebody?

[Jess Hooker]

No, it was Ja Rule.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And I don't know who that is. Is that a rapper?

[Jess Hooker]

One of my favorites.

[Tom Griswold]

I was gonna say you love rapper.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, we'll have some Ja Rule for you when we. When we come back. Tom.

[Chick McGee]

Is that his actual name? Ja.

[Tom Griswold]

J, A, J A R U L.

[Chick McGee]

E. Doesn't that mean.

[Jess Hooker]

God, I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, here's some Ja Rule. It's Fleetwood. I'm sorry, Bob.

[Chick McGee]

Well, awesome.

[Josh Arnold]

There's a chance he sampled something.

[Jess Hooker]

That is true.

[Josh Arnold]

What are you. You're tapping on the mic there.

[Chick McGee]

Never do that again. Thank you very much. A couple things.

[Tom Griswold]

It's just like glass.

[Chick McGee]

Seems like a dream. We have our pop up store. It's ending today. Is that right?

[Jess Hooker]

Tonight at midnight.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

The pop sound with my mouth.

[Chick McGee]

No, for God's sake, don't do that. I'm gonna exile you to a different room where I can turn the mic off. The whole show.

[Jess Hooker]

I don't like it either.

[Chick McGee]

We have the special T shirts we made to benefit the Stead Family Children's Hospital in Iowa. Part of that Children's Miracle Network. It's a great place. And we sold a whole bunch of them. I haven't gotten a number yet. We got to write that check to the hospital. I'm really looking forward to doing that. But thanks to everybody in Iowa who bought those shirts. There's a handful of them left, I gather, and they're available on the Internet today only. Plus a couple of other shirts would appear from this form that they've just handed me a really cool Bob and Tom T shirt and a hoodie. So very nice. Yeah, you gotta let me design a hoodie.

[Jess Hooker]

You didn't design that one.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, no, I don't think.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what?

[Jess Hooker]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

That's a great idea.

[Josh Arnold]

He would. Hey, look at the new hoodie I designed. It would be a button up shirt with two pockets.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, and not only that, but it would be available sometime in late 27.

[Chick McGee]

No, no, because the hoodie that I just bought, that Patagonia one that has the inadequate pocket, I could put a pocket that'll hold a phone in it. There you go. 90% of the world is carrying a phone around. Apparently no one told the folks at Patagonia. We are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom.

[Ace Cosby]

There's more of the show coming up. Book your next vacation with Christy Lee and Colette. Visit England, Scotland and Wales this September 28th. Visit bobandtom.com for details. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Chick McGee]

Since you're new to HR Block, we'll look at your returns from the last three years.

[Ace Cosby]

For any money your last guy might.

[Chick McGee]

Have missed for free. I could get money back from last year.

[Tom Griswold]

You could.

[Chick McGee]

We'll find any mistakes.

[Ace Cosby]

Could have really used that two years.

[Ali Breen]

Ago when I dated that mistake for five months.

[Chick McGee]

Don't leave money on the table. Switch to H and R Block and get a free Second look review. Second look is included at no additional cost with the purchase of tax preparation. Results vary. All tax situations are different. Fees apply. If you have us file an amended return.

[Tom Griswold]

Shut it. Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Hello, Josh Arnold, how are you?

[Josh Arnold]

Great.

[Tom Griswold]

What kind of cereal are you having this morning?

[Josh Arnold]

You know what it's called?

[Tom Griswold]

What?

[Josh Arnold]

What? Morning Summit.

[Tom Griswold]

Morning Summit, that's right. Wow, that's very Cold War.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, it is.

[Tom Griswold]

I like that. There's Jess Hooker at the Silac Insurance news desk.

[Jess Hooker]

Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat Godwin's here.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, Chick.

[Tom Griswold]

Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee. We are in the o'reilly Auto Parts studio. And here's Tom with our Special. More or less. Surprise guest.

[Chick McGee]

He is an artist. He has a guitar, he sings, he writes songs, he drives trucks. He's Edwin McCain.

[Josh Arnold]

Edwin.

[Chick McGee]

One of our favorites. Great to see you, Edwin. And I gotta explain something right away, right off the bat. I don't know if you were given warning, but there's a reason that Josh has the ridiculous facial hair.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

You should explain this. Josh, do you want to tell Edwin what you're doing?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, I. Every year, I grow my winter's beard, Edwin. And around this time, I go ahead and hit the reset button, start over with it. And so I allowed my coworkers this week each day to pick what my facial hair will look like as I get rid of the beard.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, I thought you were, like, prospecting with the Hell's Angels.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah. Oh, yeah. That's good.

[Josh Arnold]

I do that as well. But this just happens to go inside.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, your facial hair. You've got the. The faux T. Is that what that's called now?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, it's just. It's double chin camouflage, if I'm being honest. It just distracts you from that, or at least I believe, sort of a.

[Chick McGee]

Triangular thing below the lower lip.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It is bigger than a soul patch we're used to calling a soul patch. Right.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And it is. Is the family okay with that?

[Ace Cosby]

I. I don't. I don't listen.

[Chick McGee]

You don't. You don't. You don't take a survey.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, they take money from me, so.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

I take no suggestions from them.

[Chick McGee]

Write this down. I had no idea.

[Tom Griswold]

He's one of your people. He.

[Chick McGee]

He.

[Tom Griswold]

The roof over your head. What about that, ladies?

[Chick McGee]

That always works.

[Jess Hooker]

That's my.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Now, before we get song out of Mr. McCain, are you going to be touring this summer?

[Ace Cosby]

I'm touring all summer with. Well, all summer. I'm touring a lot of the summer with Train. Yeah. We just announced.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, we're going. You can check edwin.com for all the tour dates because that's normally what I do, too. I don't look at my schedule past, like, three days ahead because I. Now it just makes it more like an adventure. I'm like, where are we going today?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, that is fun.

[Chick McGee]

These are like me.

[Josh Arnold]

I can't.

[Chick McGee]

I can't remember any dates.

[Jess Hooker]

Tom's like that in the morning. Where am I going?

[Chick McGee]

No idea what I'm doing now. I. I saw you this summer. It was a great show. It was Hootie and the Blowfish Collective Soul. And you opened it up, was great. And I don't know if you know this. On the way out, I followed your. You. Could you drive your own.

[Ace Cosby]

Driving the bus, I was right behind.

[Chick McGee]

You, trying to click my lights. So I got. Then I tried to pull up next to you. What, you're gonna look down and go, what the hell? But that was a great show. Great, great tour.

[Ace Cosby]

That was a lot of fun. And those guys are like big brothers to me. And so it was a family reunion of sorts. And I forgot how awesome playing the big amphitheaters are because, you know, there's, like. There's catering, and it's clean, and everything works like. I've been living in indie land where something's breaking every single day. You get there and everybody's that guy. Like, it's nice. That was nice.

[Chick McGee]

It's like a vacation. Great show. And the. The. The lead singer from Collective Soul, Ed. Ed has a very long, white hair.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes.

[Ace Cosby]

And he. He has a different suit, like, crazy suits for every show. He never wore the same suit twice. And I was like, dude, how do you afford this? Because I was assuming he gets them all tailored, but he has a trick. Every city just goes to a magic shop and buys magician suits for, like, 50 bucks.

[Josh Arnold]

No kidding.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah. And from, you know, from the audience, you can't tell that it's not like, a tailored suit, and it's got mirrors and. And, you know, or, you know, whatever on it. It's like, crazy. It's like. It's genius. It's genius.

[Tom Griswold]

You got scarves in his sleeve.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, and there's rabbits flying.

[Josh Arnold]

We had a show at a casino last week, and before I hit the stage, I went to my. Our producer, Jason. I said, hey, you know what? I wouldn't mind a bush light. And so we went and we talked to a lady at the casino, said, hey, can I get a Busch light? And she goes, that's kind of against the rules, really. Oh, really? And she's like, I'll get you one. But we got in trouble last week. Somebody gave a bottle of vodka to Collective Soul.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, yeah. No, no. Oh, no.

[Edwin McCain]

Oh, no.

[Ace Cosby]

I will say this. So this.

[Chick McGee]

This.

[Jess Hooker]

This.

[Ace Cosby]

This is my favorite decade of my career so far by. By a.

[Chick McGee]

By a mile.

[Ace Cosby]

And. And I never thought. I thought by now, you know, I. I was walking on stage. It was real quiet. We were playing one of those seated theaters, and it was really quiet after they announced me. And I was walking out to the microphone, and I heard this woman turn to her husband and go, he looks okay.

[Chick McGee]

He looks okay.

[Tom Griswold]

And.

[Ace Cosby]

And And I was like, oh, my God. I'm getting credit for just waddling out here. I mean, this is amazing. Amazing.

[Edwin McCain]

I haven't even sung yet.

[Ace Cosby]

I mean, I was like, this is great.

[Tom Griswold]

That says so much. They were worried how he was gonna look.

[Ace Cosby]

I mean, I just. Being bipedal.

[Tom Griswold]

Nice.

[Chick McGee]

Nice. A couple things. Ed with his fancy clothes. And that's the reason the guy behind me at the. At the show taps me in the shoulder. He goes, he looks just like Haywood Banks. I sent you those pictures. And he does. He does look just like Haywood. Yeah. A friend of mine who is a musician of a certain stature, he would wear women's clothing, women's shirts on stage. They just. That was the way to do it. Cheap. Look like you've got something really cool.

[Jess Hooker]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

He would wear, you know, whatever.

[Ace Cosby]

So there's a funny story about Mel Tillis getting busted. His wife caught him in a hotel room, and Mel opened up the door and was wearing a.

[Chick McGee]

A.

[Ace Cosby]

A woman's canvas all. And. And they were standing there, like, locked. And Mel. Mel looked at his wife and went, look what I bought you.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

More like, look what I bought you.

[Ace Cosby]

I didn't want to go there. I don't know.

[Chick McGee]

I think we can do that.

[Josh Arnold]

That's the truth.

[Ace Cosby]

I don't know anymore. I don't know anymore. I don't know anymore. I'm scared. We're running the razor's edge.

[Chick McGee]

Do we have time to do. Have Pat do a song for Edwin?

[Josh Arnold]

It's up to you, buddy.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. This needs a little bit of a set setup.

[Ace Cosby]

And before that, though, they were saying they were going to move you back into your other room. And I was like, nobody puts Baby in a corner.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Oh, they're hugging. Very nice. Very nice. You guys missed guitar talk, but we did.

[Ace Cosby]

We did just nerd out like Johnny.

[Chick McGee]

Johnny Cashwood.

[Ace Cosby]

Like, I heard all. All of your eyes rolled like dominoes. As we were doing that, too.

[Josh Arnold]

I was like, oh, here they go.

[Chick McGee]

These two go.

[Josh Arnold]

Here we go.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Okay, now.

[Josh Arnold]

Time. Didn't even want to hear the recap.

[Chick McGee]

We don't have time. We'll have to come back with this.

[Tom Griswold]

So that means.

[Chick McGee]

That means Pat gets to stay in the building an extra few minutes.

[Tom Griswold]

I'd like to know.

[Jess Hooker]

I thought we were going to send him for coffee.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, good. Thank you very much. A couple quick things I want to remind you again. Our. We had some T shirts still from our big show in Iowa. And I want to thank the 1200 people who stopped by. That was fun. We had a great time and we did a special T shirt. And all the proceeds are going to the Stead Family Children's Hospital. And today's the last day. We'll be selling them on our website. Plus we have a couple of other shirts. So go to bob and tom.com and you're more than welcome to buy one. We'd certainly appreciate it. And also, Willie G Son number two is on stage tonight with Tommy Brennan at Zany's in Nashville. They're on tour. They'll be in Louisville and they'll be in Columbus, Cincinnati, etc. So the details on that coming up. We're going to return with singer, songwriter, artiste and what's the word I'm looking for? Gadabout Rock on tour. Those are also pretentious. He's a really nice guy and pretty funny, too. He is Edwin McCain. We are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Ace Cosby]

You could win a $250Amazon gift card by taking our annual listener survey. We'd like to know what you like. Just go to bobandtom.com survey. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Josh Arnold]

No one knows music like Rolling Stone. Senior writer Brian Hyatt talks the biggest music news from the biggest stars.

[Ace Cosby]

Almost everyone is teaming up on Drake. It's like Drake versus the world.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You first met Prince.

[Ace Cosby]

You were driving for him before you.

[Tom Griswold]

Were drumming for him. That's correct.

[Edwin McCain]

Steven Wonder.

[Ace Cosby]

You kind of have to understand how.

[Edwin McCain]

How Stevie began white radio.

[Ace Cosby]

That's where the money was.

[Josh Arnold]

That's what still is Rolling Stone music. Now follow and listen on your favorite platform.

[Chick McGee]

Shut it up.

[Tom Griswold]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Jess Hooker at the Silac Insurance news desk. There's Pat Godwin. Hey, pal, how you doing?

[Chick McGee]

Good.

[Tom Griswold]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Jess Hooker]

Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

Ace Cosby. I'm, I'm Chick McGee at the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studio. Tom, how are you? We got a special guest buddy.

[Chick McGee]

We certainly do. He is, I almost said comedian Edwin McCain. Well, he's funny. He is very funny. He musical recording artist, I guess, as opposed to spoken word recording artist. Very fine singer and songwriter. He's joined us in the studio. We'll get a couple songs out of in just a second. But first, first, we had promised Mr. Godwin that he could play a song. And we've been, you know how he.

[Tom Griswold]

Is when we make him wait.

[Chick McGee]

Two excellent guitarists and two excellent guitars. Pat has an unusual instrument from Australia. Is that correct?

[Tom Griswold]

Made out of kangaroo.

[Chick McGee]

Hide yes. Okay. But toenails, you have asked for a specific news story so that you can entertain. What is.

[Josh Arnold]

That's the maiden Peronis, right? With the bent neck.

[Chick McGee]

The bet.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, Peron.

[Jess Hooker]

Authorities in Colombia arrested a man for trying to smuggle $10,000 worth of cocaine under his wig.

[Tom Griswold]

Under his wig.

[Jess Hooker]

A video shared by the Colombian national police shows officers stopping the 40 year old suspect as he was attempting to board a flight from Cartania to Am. Cara, Cartagena. Thank you.

[Tom Griswold]

Got a hint.

[Jess Hooker]

In the clip, authorities snip away at the hairpiece to reveal several discs of cocaine attached to the bottom of his wig.

[Josh Arnold]

How much money was it worth?

[Jess Hooker]

$10,000.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a lot to pay.

[Chick McGee]

Very nice. I wanted to. I wanted to Google. I did Google that joke slang terms for wigs. Because a guy that I. An English friend of mine would always call him an Irish.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, he's wearing an Irish.

[Chick McGee]

See the Irish on that guy, you know? Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

See the Irish on. Interesting.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah. He was cockney. And that was.

[Josh Arnold]

That was the reason. Names.

[Chick McGee]

Some of the others. Obviously. Toupee rug is a big one. Peace extension. A switch. A pastiche.

[Tom Griswold]

A pastiche. I like that.

[Ace Cosby]

And of course, merkin.

[Chick McGee]

A wig. Oh, that's. No, that's a. Oh, sorry.

[Ace Cosby]

Wrong one. Wrong one, wrong one. My bad.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, Merkin is a. Is a pubic wig. Popular in the days of terminal crabs. They would shave just.

[Tom Griswold]

Or cancer. Your hair falls out during treatment.

[Chick McGee]

Thanks for bringing that up. Back to wig, hairpiece, toupee rug. All slang terms for the. For the wig.

[Tom Griswold]

That's it? That's all you had? None of those are new terms except pastiche.

[Chick McGee]

Well, there's also wiglet.

[Josh Arnold]

That's a tiny wig.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, yeah. Rug is the one that I thought was. Don't you like that? Have you seen the rug in that guy? The implication being that that isn't hair. It's a. I've managed a swath of swath of.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm not carpeting. I'm not obsessed with hair. Like. Like you are.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. That's right.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

Now, Pat, you have a tribute.

[Josh Arnold]

Edwin, if there's cocaine in the news, this is a running gag.

[Chick McGee]

We. We go with the kids like it.

[Tom Griswold]

You're still gonna be embarrassed in front of everyone.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, so we'd like to know where you got the cocaine. Yeah, we'd like to know where you got the cocaine. There's coke in the rug. Coke in the rug, baby. Coke in the rug.

[Edwin McCain]

Flip the man over.

[Josh Arnold]

Coke in the rug. Coke in the rug. Maybe coke in the rug. Customs watching you, scratching your head. Your toupee drags a little to the left. There's too much dandruff and that rug's too big. You're looking guilty in that powdered wig. There's coke in the rug. So please explain. Someone has to answer for this cocaine.

[Chick McGee]

So we'd like to know where you got the cocaine.

[Josh Arnold]

Tell us.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, we like to know where you're taking the cocaine.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, it is coke in the rug. Coke in the rug, baby. Coke in the rug.

[Edwin McCain]

Flip the man all up.

[Chick McGee]

Coke in the rug.

[Josh Arnold]

Coke in the rug, baby. Coke in the rug.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey.

[Josh Arnold]

Coke in the rug.

[Chick McGee]

All right. Thank you very much. Silly and embarrassing. And it's a classic.

[Josh Arnold]

It is fun.

[Chick McGee]

I enjoy it every time. Well, since we're talking to Ms. Hooker over there at the Silac Insurance Newstec, let's squeeze one more thing out of you, okay?

[Jess Hooker]

Interesting.

[Josh Arnold]

A gross way to put that.

[Jess Hooker]

Right. New research suggests that Stonehenge may have feature a giant stone phallus at one point.

[Josh Arnold]

Now a monolith or an actual phallic representation.

[Jess Hooker]

A detailed study of a fallen, partially buried stone dubbed Stone 67 was revealed that it may have been sculpted to resemble a massive wang.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't know about this.

[Chick McGee]

That takes a lot of the. That then makes it more comical if you.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, when the stone was upright, it would have looked like an 8 and a half foot tall erect male member.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, monoliths are found in all those.

[Chick McGee]

Ancient sites, but apparently they have determined that the chunks of stone would fit together and that it's like a shaft with a bulbous tip.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, the three foot tip.

[Josh Arnold]

I'm not buying it, but we've been.

[Ace Cosby]

Compensating for thousands of years.

[Chick McGee]

The original name of Stonehenge was Boner City City.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, that does kind of answer some questions.

[Tom Griswold]

You say more at Boner City.

[Chick McGee]

Maybe it was a. Maybe it was a primitive dating app. Stonehenge. They're, they're, they're, they're, they're hip for you. You can go meet a guy.

[Jess Hooker]

Another point was that it would have likely aligned directly with the mid summer sunrise.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Mid winter sunset.

[Josh Arnold]

There you go.

[Tom Griswold]

It's, it's arguably the single most important location in Stonehenge where this Stone 67 is located. Yeah. So it means something to me.

[Chick McGee]

Have you been there?

[Ace Cosby]

They missed the joke by two, though. Yeah, they missed the joke by two.

[Tom Griswold]

They sure did.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Research leader Professor Terence Me has published his identification of the stone in a new book. Well, Meen is Trustworthy Professor Mean believes Stone 67 was deliberately shaped as a phallus to represent the male principle. And the altar stone was intended to represent the female principle.

[Chick McGee]

Aha.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay.

[Jess Hooker]

There you go.

[Chick McGee]

Have you been there, Josh?

[Josh Arnold]

I have.

[Chick McGee]

Were you able to get up and touch it?

[Josh Arnold]

No, they had. They had, like. What the hell do they call those things? Fences, Stanchions with. Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

Velvet ropes.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, kind of.

[Tom Griswold]

I try to go up there with, like, a honey bunch and a diet soda and try to pause the stomach having your lunch. Oh, this is cool. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

When I went there, you could go. You could walk, right?

[Josh Arnold]

I know. Yeah. I wish I could do that because I'd like. I would like to feel one. See if you can feel any energy.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, really?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, sure. Yeah. A lot of those hinges are built on certain intersections of, like, electronic. Well, like. Like magnetic ground.

[Chick McGee]

So no kidding.

[Josh Arnold]

See if you can actually feel some of the energy there. I mean, that's how the ancient aliens knew where.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Tom Griswold]

They have a God. I've never seen that. The recreation of what the Stonehenge originally could look like. Originally looked like. Look at that.

[Josh Arnold]

I believe they're called ley lines. Those. Interesting.

[Chick McGee]

Does that have the phallus in it?

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, it's. One of them is down the tallest stone there. There.

[Ace Cosby]

It's a grower.

[Tom Griswold]

It's a grower.

[Chick McGee]

How would you justify that to your wife back in the day? Well, I'm going back to the site. We've been carving a. Yeah. Giant penis.

[Josh Arnold]

Gotta get to work.

[Chick McGee]

Now we are joined by singer, songwriter, Edwin McCain. Tried to behave, Edwin. No, Try to behave. Now, enough of. Enough of our news stories. You got your guitar. What do you feel like playing? Oh, God.

[Ace Cosby]

All right, I'm gonna play. We just released the first album in 15 years, and I'll play you. So I've had a sax player that's been with me this whole time. 35 years we've been playing. And so I wrote a song about him for this record because he is sort of crabby and really quiet, and I like making fun of him. And when he. He was working at the Greenbrier playing jazz, he was a big jazz guy. And he. He took off from the Greenbrier and was coming to South Carolina to take over for this band called the Truly Dangerous Swamp Band. But in between West Virginia and South Carolina, they broke up.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh.

[Ace Cosby]

And he ended up in South Carolina with no gig, and I was the only option. And so it. Back then, he was like, well, I'll play with you, but only for a summer. And Then I'm going to law school.

[Chick McGee]

All right, whatever.

[Ace Cosby]

35 years later, we're still together. But this is my ode to the. The crabby old sax player that plays with me.

[Edwin McCain]

What were those nasty cigarettes that you used to smoke in 1992 when we first met? You know, me and K were laughing but you didn't get the joke. Wisely skeptical, hadn't made your mind up yet. You smoke cool miles, Cool miles. You smoked cool miles. All that menthol in the air Cool miles Cool miles Just smoked cool miles so you wouldn't have to share. We'll blame it on your sister Darcy or that bartender at the wing. We'll blame it on Branford back when he was playing with Stan. Well, blame it on those sweet thick Charleston lovely summer nights. That took all your stupid law school dreams and hit em out of sight. You smoke cool miles. Cool miles Just smoked cool miles. All that menthol in the air Cool miles Cool miles Just smoke cool miles so you wouldn't have to share. We would wait until afternoon showers Wash the pine dust into the pond. Then we'd play to the girls from Ohio with them streaks of Southern blood 30 years ago by me.

[Chick McGee]

Goddamn.

[Edwin McCain]

Where'd it go? Robert said it's impossible. What the hell does he know? He can take that old waltz of his Hope mine never ends. We'll stay out here on the road making music with my friends. These have been cool miles, cool miles. These have been cool miles. And I do them again and again and again and cool miles, Cool miles. These have been cool miles my friend.

[Chick McGee]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

Edwin McCain, one of the few tributes to cigarettes out there. Particularly menthol cigarettes. Very controversial, of course. I'd love the line. He smoked cools so he wouldn't have to.

[Ace Cosby]

That's why anybody smokes menthol cigarettes. So nobody can bum them off of you.

[Chick McGee]

Wow. Well, that's how I think a lot of people that started to smoke them. That's the reason they started, because they bummed them and they got. They got that. They got that. That. A hint of a breath mint in their cigarette. That's a great song. Really.

[Ace Cosby]

You know, I was a. I'm a huge fan of Ricky Lee Jones. And so she kind of influenced me. And I would say that's my little nod to her that I. I love the way she approached all her music. And me too.

[Tom Griswold]

The.

[Ace Cosby]

The line in the song where it's like Robbie said, it's impossible. There's a. There's a scene where. In the Last Waltz where Robbie looks at the camera and goes, you know, this life on the road and being a musician is. It's an impossible way of life. And when I saw that movie, I was 20 and I was like, wait a minute, what are you talking about? Like, this is amazing. Like, that's not impossible, Robbie. And So, you know, 35 years in and I'm telling Robbie he was wrong. So, you know, it's a great way of life.

[Chick McGee]

I love it.

[Ace Cosby]

I'm going to stay out here and play as long as they'll let me.

[Chick McGee]

All right, I have a real quick question on the studio version of that. Is there a sax solo?

[Ace Cosby]

100%. There's a sax seller.

[Chick McGee]

Did you warn him before what it was about?

[Ace Cosby]

No, he. He picked. He picked it up from the lyrics. And honestly, I was surprised he even pays attention because he hasn't been listening to me for the last 15 years at least.

[Chick McGee]

Does he still smoke? Cool Miles?

[Ace Cosby]

No, We've all behaved. We've all stopped our. You know, we. We used to all smoke everybody in our band in a bus with no windows that would open. I think back to that and I mean, how ridiculous that must have been. All of us just smoking away in our bus.

[Chick McGee]

Like Spicoli. Hop out of the bus. We're hanging out with Edwin McCain. We'll get another song out of them. Coming up, we also have news coming from that lady over there. She. She is the lovely Jess Hooker and she is reporting for duty, of course, from the SILAC insurance news desk. But right now we check in. Speaking of music, the best way to.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you, Chickster. A possible incredibly obscure Story that has something to do with what's happening in the world in the last few days. Also, we're gonna hang out with Edwin. We've got some more music coming from Patty G. I'm very excited about all this stuff. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. There's Jess Hooker. There's Josh Arnold, Pat Godwin, Ace Cosby. I'm Chick mcgee. We're in the o'reilly Auto Parts Studios. Tom. We have a special, very special guest guests in the studio.

[Chick McGee]

Joining us in the studio, he is a singer, songwriter. Let's see, what else? Guitarist, bus driver, licensed. What's the name of the license you have, Edwin?

[Ace Cosby]

I have a CDL.

[Chick McGee]

CDL to Edwin McCain. Is this the COVID of your new album?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

That is great.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

It's called Lucky and this is radio. Sorry, I just was handed this piece of paper. That's cool. Mr. McCain is on the road. You doing a little solo thing, is it? What's.

[Ace Cosby]

I'm doing both. I'm playing some shows. Skokie tomorrow and then I'm with Lee Bryce playing as a special guest on his Me and My Guitar tour. And then I'm. I'm all over.

[Chick McGee]

We're doing Rockford, Illinois, Friday, Council Bluffs, Iowa, Saturday, Sunday, Minneapolis. And you're driving your truck between all these.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Cool.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, it's great.

[Josh Arnold]

That's the way to go.

[Ace Cosby]

I love it. I honestly, I. I will drive. I just can't do the airline air airports anymore. I'm done. Just. I just, I'll sit in my car and you know, it's.

[Chick McGee]

It's nice you love driving because you do drive. This summer when I saw you were driving the tour bus.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

I love it.

[Ace Cosby]

It's great.

[Chick McGee]

And. Yeah, that's cool. I mean, if you love driving, which you do. Do you listen to. Do you listen to music or tapes or books?

[Ace Cosby]

I listen to books on tapes or documentaries or whatever. I hardly. I don't. I don't listen to a lot of music when I drive. And I will say this so I've noticed a trend. Truckers don't respect bus drivers.

[Josh Arnold]

Really?

[Ace Cosby]

No. You don't even. They won't even give you the man nod. We are, we bus drivers. I feel like we're second class citizens in the truck stops. It hurts my feeling a little bit.

[Tom Griswold]

Huh?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

I just gotta be honest with you.

[Chick McGee]

Have you written any songs about driving your bus?

[Ace Cosby]

No.

[Chick McGee]

Maybe it's time No, I have.

[Ace Cosby]

I have some shame around that. The truckers have driven that down deep in me. I haven't really processed it all out yet. But I will tell you this. If you want to be by yourself in a truck stop bathroom, just cry out loud in the stall, and they will flee out of that room. And you have it all to yourself. Something about the sound of. Of men's tears is like. Is like repellent to truck drivers. I can have that because everything else.

[Josh Arnold]

Is game in a truck stop. I hear a lot of. How can I put this? Coming from a stall of a truck stop. Ethnic arguments.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

As in foreign language over the phone. Yeah, yeah. And I'm. They sound like arguments, but it could be just.

[Tom Griswold]

Just, how are you? Happy Thanksgiving.

[Josh Arnold]

Right. But it sounds harsh.

[Chick McGee]

And you've been. But you. You've been driving your bus for a long time.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah. The first bus I ever bought, I was 18, and I bought this old. It was a GMC 4104. That was a former Greyhound bus. It had 2 million miles on it. And this gospel group had it for years. And it was sitting in a cow field when I bought it. And it was funny because on the back of the bus, it said, God is my pilot. And so cops would come flying up behind me like they were going to pull me over. They get just close enough to read that, and then they'd peel off. It was like. Oh, it was. It was like a magic trick.

[Chick McGee]

For years, you got the thing up and running.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, yeah, it was. It would go 55 miles an hour downhill with the wind behind you. And I never changed the oil. I just added it. Every 500 miles, you have to add a gallon of oil to this thing. And. Oh, God, that thing was. That was a.

[Josh Arnold]

Have a bathroom.

[Ace Cosby]

It did. And didn't really go straight down the road. It kind of crashed down the road. It was a little out of line. And, you know, man, we love that bus. That was a fun time.

[Chick McGee]

We're Speaking with Edwin McCain, bus driver, singer, songwriter, and we're going to do a couple news stories to get another song out of Mr. McCain, if that's okay with everybody. We do have Jess Hooker sitting in for Christy Lee at the SILAC insurance news desk. I wanted you to do a song for Edwin because it reminds me of a story of his. It's the one about.

[Tom Griswold]

You mean you want her to do a story because it reminds you of a song of Edwin McCain.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Jess Hooker]

Let's sing which song or which story.

[Chick McGee]

About the new release From Britain, the new release from the new album that's just come out by a number of artists.

[Josh Arnold]

Huh. Oh, about AI.

[Tom Griswold]

Is it a compilation?

[Chick McGee]

Kate Bush is putting out something kind of.

[Jess Hooker]

Here we are. Several British MUS musicians have banded together to release a silent album in protest of plans to let AI use their work.

[Tom Griswold]

A silent album.

[Jess Hooker]

A silent album.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Josh Arnold]

I want the names of everyone involved.

[Chick McGee]

Involved.

[Josh Arnold]

So that I can erase them from my.

[Tom Griswold]

I think it's.

[Chick McGee]

I mean, it's an interesting thing.

[Tom Griswold]

What if it's a. Edwin's pet project?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, I. I would tell you right to your face. This is idiotic, but there's a reason.

[Chick McGee]

I wanted to do this story.

[Jess Hooker]

The album is called Is this what We Want?

[Tom Griswold]

Oh.

[Jess Hooker]

Features more than 1, 000 musicians doing nothing.

[Chick McGee]

Yes.

[Jess Hooker]

Including Kate Bush.

[Josh Arnold]

You can't be for this.

[Jess Hooker]

Annie Lennox.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, here's the thing. I was talking to an audiophile friend of mine.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yes.

[Chick McGee]

And the vinyl version is so much better than the digital version. I'm kidding.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, it's warmer.

[Chick McGee]

No, I. I don't buy that. But, no, I. Obviously, they're protesting the whole thing with AI listening to their music and not giving them credit.

[Tom Griswold]

So you're just buying a hunk of plastic in a. In a nice sleeve, I hope, or a nice.

[Chick McGee]

What it's doing. It's getting pressed. So people are talking about the difficulties and the problems of this. But I'm. I brought this up. Do you remember why I'm bringing this up?

[Josh Arnold]

Why would we.

[Chick McGee]

Edwin talked off the air about a story when you were touring with a collective soul and there was an issue with a certain vocalist ability to sing, and you said you would do it. Do you remember how the story goes?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

No.

[Ace Cosby]

Ed. Ed had a problem, and he couldn't play one of the shows. And I was like, I'll do it.

[Josh Arnold]

This is the lead singer of Collective Soul.

[Ace Cosby]

And I was like, all right, I'll learn. I can learn. Learn enough of the songs, and we'll, you know, we'll get through it. I can sing.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

If you, you know, if that's what we need to do. And I. And. And the. Our audience knows us all well enough to. Where I was like, they'll. They'll accept that. I will. I'll never fit into one of his suits. It'd be like, fat guy in a little coat. But whatever.

[Chick McGee]

It'd be.

[Ace Cosby]

But I mean. So I was trying to figure out if I could do it, and. And then he pulled through, so we were good. Oh, pull it off.

[Chick McGee]

But you were talking about this.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And. And while you were talking about it on the radio, somebody went and using AI, they walked in with what it would sound like. They put Edwin's voice on a collective soul song.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, gotcha.

[Chick McGee]

Electronically with AI and you'd never sung it, but it sounded like you were singing it.

[Ace Cosby]

And, and, and, and that. I'll jump it a little bit past that. I've been getting a lot of offers to buy my publishing catalog. Like, more than normal. Like, they, the, the offers kind of ticked up and I was like, something's going on. And so I started like, like digging in a little bit. And the reason why is that these publishing companies now, and they're all owned by venture capital groups, they want to buy my publishing because they'll buy. They'll buy it at face value or even a little bit more because the lawsuits that are on the horizon, because they're going to sue these AI companies in perpetuity. And so there's a big lawsuit payoff coming because the AI companies have already cracked the seal and started reaching out to Audi, to artists to get these blanket approvals to let their AI use what you sound like, what you look like, and all that stuff for these amalgams like that. So technically, if I wanted to, I could go to that AI company that did that thing with my voice on their song. And, and, and you'd have a suit because it's an il. According to copyright law. All. It's an illegal alteration to a copyrighted work.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Now, have you been asked to take any of your big hits and turn them into a commercial? I mean, I'll be. Is one of my favorite songs of all time on.

[Ace Cosby]

On the automakers to come with Greatest van of your life. It's killing me. Like, I'm like, dude, are you. Are you telling me, being my age, are you. I'd sit in the open door of a minivan and with my whole heart sing, greatest van of your life?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes, of course.

[Ace Cosby]

I have two kids. I have one child that wants to go to med school.

[Tom Griswold]

So listen.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, goodness, listen, listen. I have, I have fatherly stuff I have to do. Ford, Toyota.

[Chick McGee]

Have they ever done. Have they ever used one of your songs as it is, with your permission? No, because, like, for example, what's the best? Like a rock. Bob Seger.

[Ace Cosby]

Right. Would that be amazing?

[Chick McGee]

Tahoe. Yeah, that was great. And that was. Those were really well done.

[Ace Cosby]

A lot of movies. I mean, we have a lot of stuff in movies, but I've never landed, like, the big commercial And. And, you know, let me throw this out there into the ether there. Chevy, Ford, Kia.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, and don't just. You know, it doesn't all have to be cars. I mean, you all Herbies. Yeah, sure has the big Montana right there.

[Chick McGee]

There you go.

[Jess Hooker]

Or.

[Ace Cosby]

Or you can find everything you need at Costco on I'll be.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Beautiful, dude.

[Tom Griswold]

Beautiful.

[Ace Cosby]

Bring it.

[Josh Arnold]

This. This isn't a. Now this thing with that the artists are doing For. For AI.

[Jess Hooker]

The 12 tracks consist of.

[Josh Arnold]

So they want people to spend money on.

[Jess Hooker]

This gets worse. Yeah, it gets worse. These 12 tracks. Tracks consist of recordings of empty studios and performance space.

[Josh Arnold]

A room tone.

[Chick McGee]

But it's. It's just all about getting the word out about the.

[Josh Arnold]

They're taking people's money.

[Jess Hooker]

They're gonna profit from.

[Josh Arnold]

And this has nothing to do with consumer.

[Chick McGee]

You know what upsets me? It should be a double album because there are so many artists involved.

[Tom Griswold]

It's on brand for you.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, no, it's. It's. It's. The whole point is they get publicity because we're talking about it.

[Jess Hooker]

Yes. And the profits from the album sales will be donated to the musicians charity. Help. Help musicians, which.

[Josh Arnold]

I wonder what that is.

[Ace Cosby]

That helps with substance use disorder.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, okay. So it's a good thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

All right. So what we're doing here. The reason that Edwin McCain stopped by wasn't to promote the fact that he's got a great new album coming out called Lucky or that he's going to.

[Ace Cosby]

Be in Sounds on it. It has sounds.

[Chick McGee]

Musical instruments actually played by human beings. Skokie tomorrow night. Friday, it's Rockford and then council bluff, Saturday, March 1, and Minneapolis, Sunday, March 2. Lots of other dates coming up, including Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Is it pronounced Carteret, New Jersey?

[Ace Cosby]

Carteret, New Jersey.

[Chick McGee]

I've never been there.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah. You know, I have a huge following in the Carteret, New Jersey Police Department.

[Chick McGee]

What is that near?

[Ace Cosby]

It's.

[Chick McGee]

It's.

[Ace Cosby]

It's basically.

[Josh Arnold]

Don't worry about it.

[Ace Cosby]

It's basically.

[Chick McGee]

Man.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Mind your own business. Near Hoboken.

[Ace Cosby]

It's good.

[Chick McGee]

Basking Ridge, perhaps. Alexandria, Virginia. Sellersville, Pennsylvania, with Mr. Edwin McCain. And Edwin is here today to try to get someone to buy the rights to one of his great songs and turn him into a commercial for whatever. We've done a really good job, I think. Can we come back with a song with one of your real tunes? Yes, I would certainly look forward to that.

[Josh Arnold]

Not that the song you played earlier wasn't a real tune.

[Chick McGee]

Can I Say another one.

[Jess Hooker]

No, he was implying the selling of it.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, I was.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't want the next song you play. Can it be a real one?

[Ace Cosby]

I mean, can you do a song like you care about me?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, put something into it.

[Ace Cosby]

Hey, will you play a song like English is your first language?

[Chick McGee]

Enthusiasm.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, where's Carteret located? What kind of a question is that?

[Chick McGee]

I'm trying to help people that live near there.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, help the people. Don't put on a spot about where's Carter at?

[Chick McGee]

He's driving there. He better know where it is.

[Tom Griswold]

Look at him. He's a rock star. He barely knows where.

[Chick McGee]

So when you're, when you're on the road in your bus, you said you like to read.

[Ace Cosby]

Read.

[Chick McGee]

Well, you like to.

[Tom Griswold]

When you drive the bus, you like listen to books.

[Chick McGee]

See, I don't like to read when I drive. Especially traffic signs. Pat will tell you. I, I, I tend to lose track, drive by things, almost hit a deer. Yeah, those. As Chick McGee once said, those signs are just some, some guy's opinion. I'm not going to get off here. When we come back back, we'll get to that. But right now, Prize picks.

[Josh Arnold]

March Madness or month after February craziness.

We can't say that word.

You're exactly right. Yes, that's right. The month before April is going to be nuts.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you very much. Chick Magee. We're coming right back hanging out with artist Edwin McCain. We are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, this is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Ace Cosby]

Thanks for listening to the Bob and Tom show this morning. Catch any part of the show you missed later today on our YouTube channel?

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Hello. Hello. Very special day of berries. Kind of a surprise for us. A nice surprise, Tom, wouldn't you agree?

[Chick McGee]

Singer, songwriter Edwin McCain is in the studio with us and we've promised we'd let him play a song. We've been torturing him with questions, but I do have a couple more. We were talking about if you were thinking of ever selling any of your big hits for a commercial and you said absolutely you would do it. Have any of your big songs ever been recorded in foreign language?

[Ace Cosby]

That's a good question. I don't know that they have. I mean, I'm sure there's a lot of, like, there is a lot of piracy that goes on out there that you never hear about until later. But. No, not yet, I don't think. But I do get a lot like. So you get, I get a detailed report of all the places where you get streams and it's kind of crazy because I had to look a few of the places up. I was like, I don't even know where that is.

[Tom Griswold]

Wow. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

So it's, it's, it's cool. I mean, you know, formerly, the only way we would know is we had these detailed reports called broadcast data systems that would monitor the radio stations and you know, and now it's, it's, you know, it's all you told.

[Chick McGee]

You can tell where everything comes, where.

[Ace Cosby]

Everything is and we count up our little half a penny.

[Chick McGee]

There are always bands that are, they'll be huge in one country and not necessarily their home country. Country.

[Ace Cosby]

Well, the Philippines were crazy. Like for me, I, I honestly, I'll be his song so much. At karaoke. The Filipinos call it the second Filipino national anthem.

[Chick McGee]

Have you ever played over there?

[Josh Arnold]

Yes.

[Chick McGee]

How'd that go?

[Ace Cosby]

We played at a 20,000 seat arena in Manila and, and it was crazy because. But I very quickly realized it's not really me they love. They love the song. And so it was an awkward hour and 15 minutes until I got to the song. And what I should have done is just walked in there and sung the song 15 times in a row. And they would have been happy with that. They literally. Or I could have just brought people up to sing it with me. Oh yeah, 15 times in a row. Next time I go back over there, that's all I'm doing. I'm just Gonna have a karaoke time with me and my song.

[Chick McGee]

Have you ever done, albeit curious, karaoke?

[Ace Cosby]

I did one time in. In New Jersey, as a matter of fact. And I just. I snuck in there with some friends and I put my name in the hat and I got up there and I sang my song karaoke. And the guy that was running the karaoke was like. That was okay. Not as good as the original guy.

[Chick McGee]

That is fantastic. You feel like playing something? What do you want to do?

[Ace Cosby]

I'll do another one from the new album, Lucky.

[Edwin McCain]

One more day above doing what I love. Yeah, I get paid but I don't call it work. My cup is half full of your loving tonight? New strings on my old guitar? Friends in my backyard all say that I must know how to play my cards? But some guys just get lucky all the time after time I've been coming I don't know what I did? To be living the way I do every day is a roll of the dice? I wind up on the sunny side? Coffee on the table, roof over my head, Dog at my feet, my girl in my bed? Some guys can't catch a break if they try? Some guys just get lucky? All the fresh cut grass is looking green? I ain't looking over fences? The jones is keeping up with me? Your guess is as good as mine. While some guys just get lucky? All the time after time I've been coming up faces? I don't know what it did to be living the way I do every day is a roll of the dice? Wind up on the sunny side? Coffee on the table, Roof over my head, Dog in my feet, my girl in my bed? Some guys can't catch a break if they try? Some guys just get lucky all the time. One more all day aboard the dirt is way more than I deserve? Someone up there loves me? Whatever I'm doing's working? Time after time I've been coming up bases? I don't know what it did to be living the way I do every day is a roll of the dice? Wind up on the sunny side? Cause the ohms table roof over my head, dog at my feet. My girl and my bears. Some guys can't catch a break if they try? Some guys just get lucky all the time? Lucky all the time. Some guys just get lucky all the time.

[Chick McGee]

Ah, Edwin McCain.

[Josh Arnold]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

Got new new project on the way out. That's one of the great songs from that. We're going to force him to sing more. In just a few minutes. We have time to squeeze in one important news Story. And I do mean important. Pick any one of them. It's.

[Tom Griswold]

It's.

[Chick McGee]

It's Jess Hooker at the Silenc Insurance news desk. What have you got over there?

[Jess Hooker]

A new survey reveals people's so called bedroom boundaries. The poll of 2,000 sexually active adults found that nearly 55% of people think porn should be banned when a relationship gets serious.

[Tom Griswold]

How 55%.

[Jess Hooker]

That's high, huh?

[Tom Griswold]

That's way high. Don't you think?

[Josh Arnold]

So are there 5% more women out there than.

[Jess Hooker]

All right.

[Tom Griswold]

Do you think that it's most, most often women objecting to the porn?

[Josh Arnold]

I think so, yes. Not always, but of course. But most often.

[Jess Hooker]

Most. Agreed. 80.

[Chick McGee]

Do you want to speak for all women?

[Jess Hooker]

Not really, but I will.

[Chick McGee]

Are you a fan of erotic videos?

[Jess Hooker]

They have a place. Yeah, I mean, I, I don't. I don't partake.

[Josh Arnold]

When you're in a serious relationship, do you want no porn to be viewed by that. The other person?

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, no, I don't. I don't care. Okay, yeah, whatever. Whatever he's into, do. Leave me alone. No, no kidding. 80 agreed that reading erotica is fair game, as is masturbating or using sex toys and dancing with someone else.

[Josh Arnold]

So see, what? Again, I think this is male and female. A lot of women are fine with the reading and the toys.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't know.

[Ace Cosby]

I don't like this world anymore.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. Don't you think this is like dancing with somebody else? Yeah. Dancing with someone else. It's okay or it's not okay.

[Josh Arnold]

I think more women would say it's okay for them to dance with another guy than it is for a guy to have his girlfriend dance with another.

[Chick McGee]

No way.

[Josh Arnold]

That's cheating.

[Jess Hooker]

Especially I can dance with other guys. He can't dance with other girls.

[Josh Arnold]

Well, that's ridiculous.

[Jess Hooker]

No, it's not.

[Chick McGee]

Well, this is why they did the survey.

[Josh Arnold]

A lot of girls dance together, so that's fine.

[Jess Hooker]

I think.

[Tom Griswold]

I think a lot of girls think. Think that way.

[Jess Hooker]

I do because I don't trust other women. It's not him, it's her.

[Josh Arnold]

Man, oh man. Yeah, but no. When I'm in a relationship, I don't watch any.

[Chick McGee]

No, you don't watch any porno?

[Tom Griswold]

No. Adult films.

[Chick McGee]

I'm sorry. Sorry. Whatever you want to call them.

[Jess Hooker]

Half of those surveyed said that they would confront their partner for having pictures with an ex on their phone or on social media.

[Chick McGee]

I get that.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, I get that.

[Josh Arnold]

You get that almost every day.

[Chick McGee]

Don't you have quite a fast. So when this. They did this survey of people that were sexually active?

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

They weren't active during the questionnaire?

[Jess Hooker]

No, they were going at it. Hey, let me ask you a couple questions.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, can I stop you for a second?

[Chick McGee]

Hold on.

[Josh Arnold]

Would you mind stopping? I'm trying to take.

[Chick McGee]

I'm doing a survey here.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, you're going to have to stop. Hash.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Because I'm trying to examine. I love that.

[Josh Arnold]

Great joke.

[Tom Griswold]

I love that.

[Jess Hooker]

A couple of behaviors that could make or break a relationship include harmless flirting.

[Tom Griswold]

And watching porn, dating other.

[Jess Hooker]

Someone else having another wife.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Okay. Coming up, by the way, that reminds me, it'll be a sexy time with Ali Breen on the Ace Cosby joke of the day. All on the way. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Ace Cosby]

Welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. At the Silac Insurance news desk, it's Jess Hooker.

[Jess Hooker]

Hi.

[Tom Griswold]

There's Josh Arnold.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

Pat Godwin.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

There's. For the love of. There's Ace Cosby.

[Josh Arnold]

Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

That joke of the day coming down the Pike. I'm Chick McGee. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios and we have a special guest, Tom.

[Chick McGee]

We're hanging out with Edwin McCain. He's a great singer, very fine songwriter, guitarist, a bus driver.

[Tom Griswold]

We have another email.

[Chick McGee]

Former smoker. You mentioned your great song about your sax player. Is it Craig? Craig. He smoked cool miles.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. What was your brand, may I ask?

[Ace Cosby]

That was a Marlboro Light guy.

[Tom Griswold]

Marlboro Light.

[Ace Cosby]

I smoked Marlboro Reds for a minute and then that was. That's stupid.

[Josh Arnold]

Hard pack or soft pack?

[Chick McGee]

Hard pack. Oh, do they. Do the lights come in a hard pack as well? Yeah, they did in the box. Okay. You're getting kind of romantically.

[Ace Cosby]

I miss them.

[Josh Arnold]

What was the cigarette that had the. The capsule in it that would make it a menthol?

[Jess Hooker]

It was called a Camel Crush.

[Josh Arnold]

Okay. Yes. I had a friend who smoked those. There was a tiny capsule in it and you could.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, you would. It was, it, it was down by the filter. And if you wanted a menthol cigarette, you just popped it and it would, you could feel it like burst and.

[Josh Arnold]

That released the fiberglass. Whatever makes a mental.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, well, we missed the 90s.

[Jess Hooker]

Don't we really big in college.

[Tom Griswold]

There were a lot of things in the 90s that I missed.

[Chick McGee]

I. I missed that one.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And I. And there was a. They were gonna ban menthol cigarettes and then that got caught up in all kinds of stuff a couple years ago. So they're still out there. Interesting. But I bring it up because Edwin has a great song that has a. References, of course. Cool Miles. But right now we're gonna do a little do and a little bit of a favor. Oh, but what do you have?

[Tom Griswold]

I have an email. Dear Bob and Tom show once again, my. This is one of. This covers the topic that I love to cover on our emails. My older friend that is a pot dealer had an alligator back in the age the 80s.

[Josh Arnold]

Wow.

[Tom Griswold]

This was in Ohio also. I like to hear Vacationing Christie from and the Dicky Dick Brothers.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, he's got a handful of requests there.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah, he's got all kinds of things.

[Chick McGee]

So we should explain to our guest.

[Tom Griswold]

The pot dealer had. And albino. What was it? Skunk. Albino skunk. That's right. It was all white. Yeah. Another pot dealer had an albino. Albino skunk.

[Chick McGee]

There seems to be a connection between sort of illegal pot dealers and exotic. Exotic pets.

[Ace Cosby]

They're just easier to find, I guess, when they're albino.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

And I guess the pot dealers have not. Don't have a lot to do all day. So they want to.

[Jess Hooker]

Have you been in the situation where you're in the car and you smell what. What you think is marijuana and you look and there's nobody around?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah. In Denver. The entire city.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. But I was on a country road road this morning, driving in and I was like, how can I smell weed if there's not? It was a skunk. It was just a skunk. Oh, yeah, you forget that. That's the smell.

[Tom Griswold]

That's some good. That's some good weed.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, very good.

[Ace Cosby]

I wonder where he bought it.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Johnny Pipe from. Johnny. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Johnny.

[Chick McGee]

Edwin, you're a claim.

[Tom Griswold]

Everybody has a story about their pot dealer and a weird animal. I'm telling you, it's gonna. This is gonna get Catch America by storm or end the world.

[Chick McGee]

You're a. You're a clean living guy. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Sober.

[Chick McGee]

There wasn't time.

[Ace Cosby]

No, I was. I was living a colorful lifestyle before that.

[Chick McGee]

And I'm not. I'm not. I'm not going to probe into that, but was there ever an exotic animal involved in any of your transactions?

[Ace Cosby]

That's a. That's a good question. I Don't know.

[Edwin McCain]

I always.

[Ace Cosby]

I never went to their house.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay.

[Ace Cosby]

But I did. I will say this. So I did call my dealer right before I went to rehab because I felt bad because he was going to be losing so much money, and I felt like I needed to, like, give him. You know, I felt bad to give a heads up. I was like, you know, your financial situation is about to change, sir. And. And I called him. I was like.

[Tom Griswold]

And he was upset.

[Ace Cosby]

No, I know. I said, hey, man. I. I was like, look, I just wanted. I'm sorry. I just wanted to give you a heads up.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm.

[Ace Cosby]

I'm checking in to rehab tomorrow. And he goes, yeah, that's probably a good idea.

[Josh Arnold]

The dealer.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

And I was like. I was like, well, there's my final sign.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

If there was any reservation. Reservations, that. This is a good idea. That was it.

[Chick McGee]

You do the full two eight.

[Josh Arnold]

The 28.

[Ace Cosby]

No, I. I did 120 days.

[Chick McGee]

Whoa.

[Ace Cosby]

Place called Talbot. Oh, I needed it. Every bit of it. Every second of it.

[Josh Arnold]

Good for you, man.

[Ace Cosby]

That's good. I'm gonna go back eventually. I. I loved it. I had a great time.

[Chick McGee]

Did you have your guitar with you, at least?

[Ace Cosby]

I did, I did. And I would play occasionally, but then.

[Josh Arnold]

That'S where he kept his drugs.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, yeah, no, no, we had. It was a. It was a. It was a great. It was a great time. I was in there. Had a. Had a lot of fun experiences. It's the only place in the world where you can see people gathered around the TV watching a high speed car chase. And it's their chase. I walked up on the TV one day, a bunch of people watching this Corvette, like, being chased by cops. I was like, what are y'all doing? Watching my chase.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, yeah, You've got a song that you did. I think one of the first times you were in here that I always loved about solitude.

[Ace Cosby]

Oh, yeah. That was the very first time I walked.

[Chick McGee]

That's a great song. That's kind of a. You. You've kind of. Your whole attitude about that has kind of shifted over the years.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, truly. Because when I wrote it, I was all like, you know, defending my friend that got stuck in a rehab. And now as a parent, I'm defending his mom for sticking him in the rehab. That was a good call. Should have stayed longer.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, should we get one of the classics out of our guest? What do you think?

[Ace Cosby]

Happy to do it.

[Chick McGee]

Okay.

[Ace Cosby]

It's like the very first time I walked in here, I played Solitude.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Edwin McCain]

Tim, be Was a good friend, yeah Was a brother of mine we were imaginary comic book superheroes Kids wasting time we were prisoners. I value youth. We were growing up strong Till that day he was taken away Something he did wrong Tim came around just the other day Boy has some stories to tell See his mama kept him locked up in a rehab Though the doctor said he was well say, yeah, I've been through the anger and the hatred towards my mom Put all that behind me.

[Chick McGee]

Edwin McCain, one of the first tunes he ever played for us, oh, so many years ago. That's still 95. Great.

[Ace Cosby]

Golly, you got me in there.

[Ace Cosby]

Ready to go.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Take that.

[Ace Cosby]

Fun day.

[Chick McGee]

I could. I could have asked for the one that just shuts the show down. Yeah. Well, I. I mentioned I just went to see you this summer. You were touring with Hootie and the Blowfish Collective Soul. That was such a great show. And as you've mentioned earlier, sometimes some of the folks don't remember exactly who you are. And then you go into this one song and everyone's. Oh, my God. You get people gasping. God, I love this song. And then it ends, and everyone's kind of. They want to start sobbing.

[Ace Cosby]

I've been blamed for the population explosion, too. Like, I got.

[Chick McGee]

I got a bunch of people in.

[Ace Cosby]

My comment section who's like, I had to pay 18 years of child support.

[Tom Griswold]

Thank you.

[Ace Cosby]

And I realized I. I started thinking about it. I. I didn't.

[Chick McGee]

I.

[Ace Cosby]

So many people use my songs in weddings that Just statistically, I lost half my audience to divorce.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Just so you know, I still get Edwin.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

You can't go to the shows anymore.

[Ace Cosby]

I have these awkward moments where it's like, yeah, that was me and my ex wife song. And I was like, sorry.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

What are you supposed to say?

[Ace Cosby]

I don't know. I don't know. I never know how to gauge that one.

[Chick McGee]

How awkward. Mr. McCain is on tour and a couple stops coming up immediately. Pretty much Skokie, Illinois tomorrow. Then it's a Rockford, Illinois, Friday, Council Bluffs, Iowa, Saturday, Minneapolis on Sunday. Go see him alive and in person for some great stuff. Stuff. Coming up, we have a little thing we call Sexy Time with Ali Breen. We're gonna ask Mr. McCain to sit in.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Top Show. There's Josh Arnold.

[Chick McGee]

Hi there.

[Tom Griswold]

There's Jess Hooker.

[Jess Hooker]

Hello.

[Tom Griswold]

She's at the SILAC Insurance news desk. Jessica Alman joins us.

[Chick McGee]

Hi.

[Tom Griswold]

There's Ace Cosby. We're in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios. This has been Chick McGee speaking.

[Chick McGee]

I love it when you do that.

[Tom Griswold]

And I know you do. And then here's. Here's Tom. Hello, Tom.

[Chick McGee]

Hello. We're hanging out with Edwin McCain, a distinguished, distinguished recording artist, as well as a distinguished musician. And he's a. He's a cool guy. Cool guy. Lots of stories, drives his own bus. I think it's awesome.

[Josh Arnold]

Any acting, Edwin? No, not at all, actually.

[Ace Cosby]

Well, I'll tell you, I did. I was in some kind of a tiny spot in a film called the Last Confederate Etc. Where I was supposed to be. Have a northern accent. And I didn't do it well enough. Overdub me. That was my one. One moment. I. I had a reality TV show about fixing up boats. So I guess that's as close as you come to acting.

[Chick McGee]

Cool. That's cool. Right now we are going to hook up via satellite with Allie Breen. She's back in New York City. I recognize the painting behind you. Yeah. Last time we talked to you were actually painting your new condo in Florida.

[Ace Cosby]

Yes.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah, I got most of it done, but I still have to go back and do more.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, well, we have a guest in the studio, singer, songwriter Edwin McCain, who has an opportunity here to be very quiet or jump right in. So we'll see. Once again, these are letters from people having love trouble.

[Tom Griswold]

Actual letters from actual list.

[Chick McGee]

Yes. Let's see what we can find out. Ellie, what have you got?

[Ali Breen]

Dear Ally, every time I go downstairs on my lady, she showers or cleans up right before I do it. The thing is, I'm into the natural smells and tastes and I just want to go right in after she's come home for work or the gym. She's way too self conscious and recently just ordered a bidet. This is killing me. What can I do?

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, boy. If you've told her and she doesn't want to accommodate, I don't know what to do in this.

[Tom Griswold]

As much as you would like her to respect your wishes about it being funky, you need to respect her wishes that she doesn't want it though, right?

[Josh Arnold]

Boy, what's a good. What's a happy medium?

[Tom Griswold]

Look at me actually offering advice.

[Chick McGee]

Maybe. Maybe rehearsing on a tennis shoe.

[Tom Griswold]

That'S been dragged through a. Yeah, yeah, cowboy pasture.

[Ali Breen]

And yeah, yeah, she could toss him some socks or something to inhale before.

[Chick McGee]

Going down I think he just has to do some kind of romantic tackle.

[Jess Hooker]

Pretty much.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, interceptor before.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Because she's not going to get there if she's self conscious and worried about it.

[Josh Arnold]

Exactly.

[Jess Hooker]

Period.

[Ace Cosby]

The irony of you talking about that with the dude wipes in front of.

[Chick McGee]

You is not a stinky. Oh yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Hit it with a. Yeah, you could. Well, she'd probably notice that, wouldn't she? You started wiping her down.

[Josh Arnold]

No, but he doesn't want that.

[Chick McGee]

He wants just the opposite. Oh yeah, that's what. That's what I'm saying. When she comes in, you're going to have to do the.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh yeah, he wants.

[Jess Hooker]

Maybe not straight from work or the gym. Maybe shower when you come home and then wait four or five hours. There's.

[Ace Cosby]

There.

[Jess Hooker]

There's a little. But not a full day's worth.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I'm just wondering if she would allow that.

[Ace Cosby]

I don't know, just date night, go to dinner, movie. You're sitting in your.

[Josh Arnold]

You know, sounds to me like she. Then she goes into the bathroom and.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Don't let her.

[Chick McGee]

Have you ever. I wonder if he's ever tried it with. Maybe. Maybe there's a reason.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Maybe.

[Josh Arnold]

Careful what you wish for. You don't know how bad it gets.

[Tom Griswold]

You don't know how bad it gets.

[Ali Breen]

That's the solution, though. If she just does it once, then he'll be like, oh, all right, I'm good.

[Josh Arnold]

Sorry, Mrs. Starkist, I didn't realize.

[Tom Griswold]

Let it go for a week. 10 days. Days.

[Ace Cosby]

Kind of the first time I did laundry at our house and never been asked to do that again.

[Chick McGee]

For a second I thought you were going to do a timely Roberta Flack first time ever. Okay, never mind. Let's move on. Ali Breen is our guest. You can reach her A L L I B R E E N on your favorite social media platform or on only fans at A L L I B. Ali, what do you got?

[Ali Breen]

Dear Allie, I met a guy at the gym and then I ran into him at a bar two nights later. We hung out. We had a lot of fun. Then I ran into him again grocery shopping and he joked that I had to let him take me out because it's clearly meant to be. We've now been dating for months and he's awesome. I posted some pictures online a couple times and recently his ex got in touch with me and asked if he kept showing up in places I was when we first met. I said yes and then she ghosted me. My friends say it sounds like he put a tracker or something on my car. What do I do about this? Do I ask him? And if he did that, it. Is it sweet or crazy?

[Chick McGee]

I don't know if he did a.

[Jess Hooker]

Tracker, but he pro.

[Chick McGee]

I don't know.

[Ace Cosby]

How did he find you at the grocery store?

[Jess Hooker]

That is weird. Yeah, they can.

[Ali Breen]

It sounds like he did that previously.

[Jess Hooker]

In the wheel well of your car. Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Like it's destiny.

[Chick McGee]

Now you have to date me. No, but it's. I think that's. Apparently that's his M.O.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, one man's stockings, another man's cording. Yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

On this, Josh, there is a fine line between thoughtfulness, stick to itiveness.

[Tom Griswold]

Boy, he's a real restraining order. He's a real go getter.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Sometimes.

[Chick McGee]

They're not always chance encounters. I recommend the movie Body Heat.

[Josh Arnold]

I don't. I don't like that he said, oh, it must be fate, when clearly it wasn't right.

[Jess Hooker]

But if you like him and it's working out, then forget about it. Don't bring it up.

[Josh Arnold]

There's maybe something to that.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Why didn't the. Why didn't the ex give her a little more information?

[Josh Arnold]

You know, that tells me that the ex is genuine.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah, that's true.

[Josh Arnold]

He just wanted to know and then got out.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

You know, it's. It's. Right now is the golden age of stalking. These.

[Chick McGee]

These.

[Josh Arnold]

They got it easy, don't they?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

When I was in high school, you had to park outside her house.

[Chick McGee]

You had to break church every week. Bus. One of her tail lights. You could follow the car. Like Chinatown.

[Ali Breen]

Surprising. More people don't do this kind of thing. It's too easy. Like, if you wanted to track somebody, you could track anybody at this.

[Tom Griswold]

Those. Those apples video cameras. They are. You drop them into a purse so easily and just wander around waiting for. Okay, never mind.

[Chick McGee]

Thank you.

[Ali Breen]

That someone would find, though, pretty quickly. Like the thing that you're talking about on a car, that can be easily undetected and you can take it off before someone notices.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

About the only thing Apple hasn't done with that little tracker, it looks like a luggage tag. Is. Yep. They haven't magnetized it, so it can right fit. Yeah.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah, you're right.

[Tom Griswold]

But I say that, and I bet there are cases that you put it in that are magnets.

[Chick McGee]

There. There are. Mag. I was just talking to the. Just talking to a cop about this over the weekend.

[Jess Hooker]

Our dog tag one.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, yeah.

[Josh Arnold]

Weird.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Well, let's move on. Good luck to her.

[Ali Breen]

Dear Ally, my boyfriend keeps wanting me to make a sex video just for us. I'm worried it'll somehow get out a. And I doubt that I'd look sexy on camera in the middle of the winter with no tan or workout routine. I told him we'll do it on vacation this summer so I don't sound like a total party pooper and just keep putting it off. But do you think he'll be mad if I say I don't want to do it?

[Chick McGee]

Then.

[Ali Breen]

Then what should I do?

[Josh Arnold]

He might not be thrilled that you don't want to do it.

[Chick McGee]

Then it's going to get. It's going to get out.

[Josh Arnold]

No, that's not true. I don't. I don't. I think that's the case.

[Tom Griswold]

I'm sorry. I agree with Tom. I think, really, the Latest studies show 2% of adult videos made in a casual atmosphere like Ally described. 2%. Don't get out.

[Josh Arnold]

Boy, that's the thing. You can't really record it on your phone because you can't always control what gets taken from your phone. You're going to have to go old school.

[Jess Hooker]

Or if you just don't want to do it, don't do it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, don't do it.

[Josh Arnold]

No, no, you have to do it. Now, here's the deal.

[Chick McGee]

I mean, you can put a bag.

[Ace Cosby]

Over your head so you can have.

[Chick McGee]

A little bit of a, you know.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, one of those wrestling Macs, the Mexican wrestling Mac. So you can have liability.

[Tom Griswold]

That's not me.

[Chick McGee]

That's someone else.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, you could, like, come up with names for each other.

[Josh Arnold]

Like, I'm the Chupacabra Snatcho Libre.

[Chick McGee]

Oh, I like that. God, what if he likes the bag over the head so much it becomes a regular thing?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Hey, I like this. Either go to the dentist or put his bag over your face. Well, then you have to worry about your tan.

[Josh Arnold]

But you know what? Next time you can use paper because you look like you're having some trouble.

[Chick McGee]

I say don't do it.

[Ace Cosby]

Bring in a play by play guy to be in the room with him.

[Josh Arnold]

Yes. The obvious answer. If you're not comfortable with it at all, don't do it. But I do want to speak to you. Had A and B. B, where you don't feel like you're tan enough and you don't feel like you're. You're. You would look sexy on video. Guys, he wouldn't ask you to do it if he didn't think you were sexy. So don't. I know it's hard. Don't think that way.

[Tom Griswold]

Did you see the dog Josh has in one of his videos?

[Chick McGee]

Good Lord. Ask his best friend he's going to show it to if he likes Tammy.

[Ali Breen]

Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. Is there a chance it's just for him, or you think he's gonna show.

[Tom Griswold]

At least one friend he's gonna show it?

[Josh Arnold]

No, I do think there's a chance it's just for him, but things can happen.

[Chick McGee]

It could leak. It could leak out.

[Jess Hooker]

But there are guys who do enjoy showing videos of their girls.

[Tom Griswold]

Absolutely.

[Josh Arnold]

I bet there are.

[Jess Hooker]

I've been in green rooms with comedians that just. Hey, did you see this?

[Tom Griswold]

They do.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah. Oh, a hundred percent. With me.

[Josh Arnold]

With you. It's really interesting because. Yeah, I've been around a ton.

[Chick McGee]

To clarify, you're not in the video.

[Jess Hooker]

No, I'm not in the video. It's like a hookup from the weekend before town or whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Mostly Ally. Ally shows me her videos all the time.

[Ali Breen]

So proud.

[Tom Griswold]

There was a time. And you know, the comedian. I'd seen his penis more than I see mine.

[Ace Cosby]

Get a load of this.

[Tom Griswold]

I don't want to. Oh, my God.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

I didn't know she could do that. Yeah.

[Ali Breen]

In New York, it was a big thing when guys were starting out because they were getting more girls than they've ever gotten. And so they really were like, genuinely like, oh, my God, look at this. Like, look at this girl.

[Chick McGee]

I got.

[Ali Breen]

It happened all the time. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

It sounds like they're on a hunting trip.

[Chick McGee]

Look at this. Look at this deer.

[Josh Arnold]

I got me girl.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, well, let's move on. We're talking with Ali Breen. A L L I B R E E N. Please. You can ask your questions on her favorite social media platform or yours. What have you got, Alley?

[Ali Breen]

Wait, I have one other question in regards to that for the guys. If there's. If you had a choice of looking at yourself having sex with your girlfriend or porn, would people use their own sex tape to, like, get off?

[Josh Arnold]

I. I've always assumed they do. I would rather watch other people.

[Jess Hooker]

That's crazy.

[Chick McGee]

Not with your girlfriend, though.

[Josh Arnold]

Right, right, right.

[Tom Griswold]

But.

[Josh Arnold]

But they.

[Tom Griswold]

They have the lighting. They have, you know. Yeah. Hopefully there's a plot point.

[Jess Hooker]

I. I think it's actually being. It's. It's making the video, not watching the video again. That's the sexy part, right?

[Ali Breen]

Yes.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Probably that razor rash and stuff. It's like, oh, man, there's way better.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Quality.

[Chick McGee]

That's what it looks like. Yeah.

[Jess Hooker]

I don't like that.

[Ali Breen]

Never do this again.

[Tom Griswold]

I have got to pay attention.

[Chick McGee]

Let's move on. What do we got next?

[Ali Breen]

Dear Ally, my husband and I have good friend couples that we double date with. The other night we went out with one of our friend couples and they invited two couples they know.

[Tom Griswold]

Here we go.

[Ali Breen]

We had an absolute blast, and we all decided to do it again.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Ali Breen]

Then we just got an invitation turning out that everyone at the table swings, and next week they're getting together for a swing party. I wanted to see if we wanted to join. I want to go, but my wife thinks it might set a weird dynamic that we'll never be able to come back from.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, what do you think?

[Josh Arnold]

Well, I think she could. She's absolutely right. But, yeah, if she doesn't want to do it, you can't do this.

[Jess Hooker]

Right?

[Chick McGee]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

We accidentally went to a swinger party one time.

[Josh Arnold]

Really?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah. Yeah. I thought it was an after party, and it was a friend of mine.

[Chick McGee]

Did he.

[Ali Breen]

After party?

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Ace Cosby]

Well, he's European, let's put it that way. And he opened up the door in his bikini briefs and went, welcome to my orgy. And you can see, like, behind him there was some fanny tag stuff going on. And. And my wife turns to me and she goes. She goes, yeah, we're leaving. And I was like, it's an orgy. It's an orgy.

[Josh Arnold]

It's rude to leave an orgy with.

[Ace Cosby]

That's what I see. And she goes, how do you know it's me they're interested in? I was like, that is a good point you are making, man.

[Ali Breen]

And she was probably right. Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

Was it bad bunny? If it was, you have to tell us.

[Chick McGee]

What a great story.

[Ali Breen]

What an adorable way to invite people.

[Tom Griswold]

Yeah.

[Ali Breen]

Greet people.

[Chick McGee]

Welcome to our orgy.

[Ace Cosby]

He was really happy about it. I gotta be honest with you. Big smile on his face.

[Tom Griswold]

I might be inclined to join an orgie.

[Josh Arnold]

It sounds more welcoming and fun.

[Tom Griswold]

It sounds fun, right?

[Ace Cosby]

It sounds like something that you'd see in Switzerland. It came with, like, Danish or something.

[Tom Griswold]

You know what I mean? Absolutely.

[Josh Arnold]

And it rhymes with corgi. Maybe that's why. What?

[Chick McGee]

Like, do you have to participate in an orgy? Orgy.

[Ace Cosby]

Or swinging? Or can you just, like, hang out in the background, like, cheer other couples on?

[Jess Hooker]

You know what I mean?

[Chick McGee]

Are they doing this in front of.

[Ace Cosby]

Everyone, or is it go to your own room with another wife?

[Josh Arnold]

Ace sex club. You can watch. Oh, okay. All right.

[Ali Breen]

Oh, you can actually just watch I.

[Tom Griswold]

Thought they frowned on that sort of thing.

[Ali Breen]

I would think so.

[Jess Hooker]

Is it. Is the COVID less if you just watch?

[Tom Griswold]

Well, you get a wristband.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, okay.

[Tom Griswold]

You remember.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, okay.

[Josh Arnold]

How about that?

[Chick McGee]

Wow.

[Ali Breen]

It should be free cover if you're participating.

[Chick McGee]

We have time for. We have time for one more letter. Ally.

[Ali Breen]

Dear Ally, my friend is getting divorced and already bringing his new girlfriend around to dinners and events. I'm still friends with this act, so I kind of feel bad being nice to his new girlfriend. But also she's pretty awesome. His ex keeps trying to bleed me for information and clearly wants me to say negative stuff and I just don't know what to do. Do. Should I tell him that he should keep his new girl on the down low until the actual divorce or just try to take straight. Sorry, I can't speak. Or just try to stay totally out of it?

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, I would stay totally out of it. It sounds like you're being a good person, a nice person.

[Jess Hooker]

Yeah.

[Tom Griswold]

And it sounds like the ex is not being a good person.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah, don't, don't, don't feed into any of that. Yeah, yeah.

[Chick McGee]

Don't say stuff like, I can't believe she's that intelligent, that wonderful and that good looking. Yeah.

[Ali Breen]

I can't believe he got such a amazing girl.

[Tom Griswold]

I think she's a gymnast.

[Josh Arnold]

Yeah. Boy, I wouldn't stay neutral.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, Ali Breen is our guys. Ally, are you in doing some work this weekend in New York?

[Ali Breen]

Yes. Yeah, I'll be in New York. I'll be at the Comic Strip and at the Ned Hotel.

[Chick McGee]

All right, well, thank you so much.

[Tom Griswold]

The Ned Hotel.

[Ali Breen]

That sounds the net hotel. They do a Friday night comedy show at this. Yeah, little boutique hotel in the city. So it's usually pretty fun.

[Chick McGee]

I just did a time check. We actually have time for one more letter. I'm sorry, I wasn't paying close enough attention.

[Ali Breen]

Oh, perfect.

[Chick McGee]

What have you got over there?

[Ali Breen]

Dear Ally, about two years ago, I went on a few dates with a female coworker. Then she met another guy, rejected me and ghosted me. I was hurt and upset by this, but I moved on. Now two years later, she got broken up with and is starting to message me and show interest again. She had ghosted me and made no effort to contact me and even remained friends in the last two years. So I don't really trust her and I don't know if I want to be a rebound guy, but I still see her regularly at work. Do I try to make this into a situation or try to rekindle our romance or quit my job completely. What should I do?

[Josh Arnold]

My last thoughts, it seems very.

[Tom Griswold]

Quit my job completely and burn the place down.

[Chick McGee]

What's going on there? I love your cats.

[Josh Arnold]

I'd say that she's going crazy in the background.

[Ali Breen]

Nuts right now.

[Josh Arnold]

She had her chance. I would not follow through with that.

[Jess Hooker]

Good for you, Josh.

[Ace Cosby]

Have some respect, young man.

[Ali Breen]

She had her chance.

[Jess Hooker]

Okay, so they never hooked up.

[Tom Griswold]

Were they a couple before and then she broke up is what I thought.

[Jess Hooker]

She ghosted him.

[Chick McGee]

No.

[Ace Cosby]

I'd be like, welcome home, baby. I am that shallow. 100%.

[Tom Griswold]

I knew it.

[Josh Arnold]

I would say until I turned about 38, I would have been the same way too. And that's just an arbitrary age for me. It had nothing to do with the fact that that's the year that Michelle got back together. Never mind.

[Ace Cosby]

There's just gonna be more drama because it's not gonna work out. So if you're in for just a.

[Chick McGee]

Few fun nights, you never know. Maybe she learned her lesson. True, but she's mature and if she's threatening to quit her job, that's.

[Ace Cosby]

She sounds needy.

[Tom Griswold]

She has to have somebody.

[Ace Cosby]

Welcome home, baby.

[Chick McGee]

Okay, there we go. On that note. On that note, we'll say goodbye. Thank you very much, Ally.

[Ali Breen]

Thanks, guys.

[Josh Arnold]

See Ally.

[Tom Griswold]

Hey, welcome back to the Bob and Tom Show. Hello, Josh, Jess, Jessica Alsman. Ace. I'm Chick. Hello, Tom. Don't we have one more fabulous feature?

[Chick McGee]

We do and I've been looking for it all week.

[Tom Griswold]

Award winning feature.

[Chick McGee]

We're gonna vote on. We have two features.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, okay.

[Chick McGee]

We're gonna vote on the second one. The first one, by law, we have to do. Now, I'll make this as elegant as I can about embarrassing our guest, the great songwriter and singer Ed Edwin McCain. We were speaking with, oh, the, the former frontman of REO just was it last week. Yeah. Kevin Cronin. And he indicated that in the last few years he has been taking singing lessons and it's really helped him with his performance. Now, we're not sufficient that you necessarily need singing lessons, but you're also a very funny person. So perhaps you maybe need some help in the realm of joke telling. Ergo, we present a little bit of a comedy lesson lesson with our own Ace Cosby.

[Jess Hooker]

Here he is with his joke of the day.

[Josh Arnold]

Hey, Jess.

[Jess Hooker]

Hey. Hey, Ace.

[Josh Arnold]

You said you were dealing with skunk order this morning.

[Jess Hooker]

I was.

[Tom Griswold]

You know how to stop a skunk from smelling?

[Josh Arnold]

I don't hold its nose.

[Chick McGee]

He's stunned.

[Jess Hooker]

Oh, Joke of the day brought to you by Sleep number bed Sleep better together. Save 40% on the new sleep number special edition smart bed for a limited time at Sleep Number stores.

[Tom Griswold]

And be sure and order for your late night snack. Sleep number bread, which is also delicious.

[Chick McGee]

Coming up tomorrow, actually we have a feature, things you should not eat before going to bed.

[Tom Griswold]

Oh, no kidding.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Of all random things. Okay, now it's time to vote. Typically at this time, we do today in history.

[Tom Griswold]

All right.

[Chick McGee]

A hack feature.

[Tom Griswold]

But nobody does it like us.

[Chick McGee]

Admittedly, it's a hack feature. It's a crutch. Would you rather do that or hear Mr. Edwin McCain sing another song?

[Tom Griswold]

What am I supposed to do?

[Jess Hooker]

I want to hear Edwin.

[Chick McGee]

Edwin, you don't get to vote. Edward is on tour. A couple stops coming up would include Peoria. Excuse me. Skokie, Illinois. Sorry. Skokie, Illinois, Thursday evening. Rockford, Illinois, Friday. Council buffs, Iowa, Saturday and Sunday, Minneapolis, Minnesota. And he'll be driving between each one in his truck.

[Tom Griswold]

You have one ready? What about Gramercy Park? How about that one?

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, I can do. I can do that for you.

[Tom Griswold]

I like that.

[Ace Cosby]

Yeah, that was.

[Tom Griswold]

I like all of them, but I like it.

[Josh Arnold]

What?

[Edwin McCain]

Obey Ruth. He was a drunkard just like me he lived it high and he lived it low Staggered down the New York streets Throw him out the bar Would raise a little too much hell and then he lay his big fat head down at the Grandma City Park Hotel the Gramercy Park Hotel While these hitmen look like organ grinders to me Rock stars on golden chains Little monkeys down their feet but give me a little hat A little vest A little monkey bell Send my bananas, baby to the Gramercy Park Hotel and all the publicists sing La dee da dee da da La de da dee da da La dee da de da da.

[Josh Arnold]

And as.

[Edwin McCain]

So so far gone and as so far gone maybe this just a beggar's life so maybe saw a dream maybe it's just about kindness I should forget all my silly schemes maybe I'm just a fool but my fool shoes fit so well I snuggle up in my big fool blanket at the Gramercy Park Hotel the Grandma City Park Hotel.

[Chick McGee]

And.

[Edwin McCain]

All the publicists sing the Gramercy Park Hotel.

[Chick McGee]

Nice tribute to Babe Ruth.

[Tom Griswold]

Yes, sir.

[Ace Cosby]

That was. I was staying in the. In the. In the hotel, and they didn't. That was before they renovated it. So the only thing they could brag about was, like, who got drunk in their bar? Babe Ruth used to get so drunk, they'd have to drag him out to baseball games. I was like, yay, alcoholism.

[Chick McGee]

All right, well, I'm. And. And I guess we have. We can do a very abbreviated version of today in history because.

[Tom Griswold]

Well, you said abbreviated.

[Josh Arnold]

It fits.

[Tom Griswold]

Nailed it.

[Chick McGee]

Okay. Born on this date in 1853, John Harvey Kellogg. Oh, John Harvey Harvey Kellogg, inventor of cornflakes. And what is he most famous for? Josh?

[Josh Arnold]

The reason he invented the Corn Flakes. Is that kind of what you're looking for? He thought it was. Go ahead, Jeff.

[Jess Hooker]

No, go, go, go, go.

[Josh Arnold]

Oh. He thought it was an anti masturbatory food.

[Tom Griswold]

It was a vehicle to get saltpeter into people's right.

[Jess Hooker]

Stop the boners.

[Tom Griswold]

Stop the boners.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Thank you.

[Jess Hooker]

Those will still happen, but you can't touch it.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah, he. This is true. He actually was a huge advocate of anti masturbation. And he invented, I don't know what.

[Jess Hooker]

Cornflakes, which means he was the biggest.

[Tom Griswold]

Blasphemy.

[Chick McGee]

Happy birthday. Fats Domino still with us, right? Born in 1928. He's getting up there.

[Tom Griswold]

Whoa. He's about all the way around.

[Josh Arnold]

No kidding.

[Tom Griswold]

Holy heck.

[Chick McGee]

Yeah. Johnny Cash, born in this date in 1932. And in 1935, the New York Yankees released Babe Ruth.

[Josh Arnold]

Wow.

[Chick McGee]

Into the wild there. There he goes. Thank you very much. Thank you so much, Edwin, for stopping by. We are in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Studios, and this is the Bob and Tom Show.

[Ace Cosby]

Thanks for listening to the Bob and Tom show this morning, even though we're not too much to look at. You can also watch the show on our YouTube channel.
